The muscles of the arm are responsible for various movements at the shoulder and elbow joints. These muscles can be divided into anterior (flexor) and posterior (extensor) groups, with additional muscles that contribute to the overall function of the arm. Understanding the actions and functions of these arm muscles is essential for comprehending upper limb movements and for the assessment and treatment of conditions affecting the arm. Proper balance and coordination between these muscles are crucial for optimal functioning of the upper limb.

Richard's entangled aventures in wonderlandRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.

Introduction:
RNA interference (RNAi) or Post-Transcriptional Gene Silencing (PTGS) is an important biological process for modulating eukaryotic gene expression.
It is highly conserved process of posttranscriptional gene silencing by which double stranded RNA (dsRNA) causes sequence-specific degradation of mRNA sequences.
dsRNA-induced gene silencing (RNAi) is reported in a wide range of eukaryotes ranging from worms, insects, mammals and plants.
This process mediates resistance to both endogenous parasitic and exogenous pathogenic nucleic acids, and regulates the expression of protein-coding genes.
What are small ncRNAs?
micro RNA (miRNA)
short interfering RNA (siRNA)
Properties of small non-coding RNA:
Involved in silencing mRNA transcripts.
Called “small” because they are usually only about 21-24 nucleotides long.
Synthesized by first cutting up longer precursor sequences (like the 61nt one that Lee discovered).
Silence an mRNA by base pairing with some sequence on the mRNA.
Discovery of siRNA?
The first small RNA:
In 1993 Rosalind Lee (Victor Ambros lab) was studying a non- coding gene in C. elegans, lin-4, that was involved in silencing of another gene, lin-14, at the appropriate time in the
development of the worm C. elegans.
Two small transcripts of lin-4 (22nt and 61nt) were found to be complementary to a sequence in the 3' UTR of lin-14.
Because lin-4 encoded no protein, she deduced that it must be these transcripts that are causing the silencing by RNA-RNA interactions.
Types of RNAi ( non coding RNA)
MiRNA
Length (23-25 nt)
Trans acting
Binds with target MRNA in mismatch
Translation inhibition
Si RNA
Length 21 nt.
Cis acting
Bind with target Mrna in perfect complementary sequence
Piwi-RNA
Length ; 25 to 36 nt.
Expressed in Germ Cells
Regulates trnasposomes activity
MECHANISM OF RNAI:
First the double-stranded RNA teams up with a protein complex named Dicer, which cuts the long RNA into short pieces.
Then another protein complex called RISC (RNA-induced silencing complex) discards one of the two RNA strands.
The RISC-docked, single-stranded RNA then pairs with the homologous mRNA and destroys it.
THE RISC COMPLEX:
RISC is large(>500kD) RNA multi- protein Binding complex which triggers MRNA degradation in response to MRNA
Unwinding of double stranded Si RNA by ATP independent Helicase
Active component of RISC is Ago proteins( ENDONUCLEASE) which cleave target MRNA.
DICER: endonuclease (RNase Family III)
Argonaute: Central Component of the RNA-Induced Silencing Complex (RISC)
One strand of the dsRNA produced by Dicer is retained in the RISC complex in association with Argonaute
ARGONAUTE PROTEIN :
1.PAZ(PIWI/Argonaute/ Zwille)- Recognition of target MRNA
2.PIWI (p-element induced wimpy Testis)- breaks Phosphodiester bond of mRNA.)RNAse H activity.
MiRNA:
The Double-stranded RNAs are naturally produced in eukaryotic cells during development, and they have a key role in regulating gene expression .

Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic ...Sérgio Sacani
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field (JOF), the deepest
imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of the ancillary Hubble optical images (5 filters
spanning 0.4−0.9µm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5µm, including 7 mediumband filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hours per filter. We combine all our data
at > 2.3µm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈ 31.4 AB mag in the stack and
30.3-31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.1” circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric
redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts
z = 11.5 − 15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R1/2 ∼ 50 − 200pc, stellar masses of
M⋆ ∼ 107−108M⊙, and star-formation rates of SFR ∼ 0.1−1 M⊙ yr−1
. Our search finds no candidates
at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward modeling approach to
infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that
marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the
impact of non-detections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results,
and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼ 2.5
from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical
models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.

3. Thoracic vertebrae (vertebrae thoracicae)
The thoracic spine is composed of a chain of thoracicvertebrae. They form, partly overlapping
,a slightly dorsoconvex bony rod, which is characterized by its limited flexibility Adapted to
their function the thoracicvertebrae are equipped with special anatomical features : the long
spinous processes for the attachment of the strong head and neck musculature in pigs and
herbivores. The cranial thoracic vertebrae fulfil an additional function as part of the entire
vertebral column by transmitting the body weight tothe thoracic limbs and, together with
the ribs to provide attachment to the muscles of the ribs, thorax and shoulder.
The thoracic vertebrae articulate with the ribs and correspond with these in number. Minor
numeric variations are common among different species and breeds and are often
compensated for by reciprocal changes in the number of the lumbar vertebrae. All thoracic
vertebrae share the following common features:
# Short bodies with flattened extremities (extremitates)
# Short articularprocess (processus articulares)
# Closely fitting vertebral arches (arcus vertebrae )
# Very long spinous processes (processus spinosi)
# Costal facets on both extremities for the rib heads (fovea costales) and on the transverse
processes for the rib tubercles.
The vertebral bodies are short in the cranial thoracicregion, but gradually increase in length
further caudal , where a ventral crest is also present The articular processes of the cranial
thoracic vertebrae are represented by oval facets The cranial facets (fovea articulares
craniales) are situated craniodorsal on the base of the spinous process and are oriented
tangentially to the vertebralarch .The caudal facets (fovea articulares caudales) are on the
caudal aspect of the base of the spinous process, but orientate sagitally towards the arch.
While the cranial vertebral notch (incursa vertebrales craniales) is shallow ,the caudal notch
is much deeper. The intervertebral foramen is comparatively large to allowpassage of the
spinal nerves and vessels. It is often divided into two by a bony bridge in ruminants.
The spinous processes are very prominent and extend from the dorsal surface of the vertebral
arch. In carnivores, the spinous processes gradually decrease in length throughout the whole
thoracic region, in pig and ruminants they increase in height in the first three vertebrae,
become progressively shorter up to 11th vertebra in the pig and 12th or 13th in ruminants and
stay at the same length for the remainder of the thoracic spine. In the horse , the spinous
processes of the first four thoracic vertebrae increase in height and become shorterup to the
13th or 14th vertebra. The high spinous processes of the first three or four thoracic vertebrae
constitute the osseous base for the withers The thoracic .v whose spinous process are nearly
perpendicular to the long axis of that bone is termed the diaphragmatic oranticlinal vertebra:
it is the 10th thoracic vertebra in the dog ,the 12th in the pig and goat, the 13th in the ox.
