  • 2020 I-0104 2020 Schedule SB Instructions
    Update to Instructions as a Result of The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 An individual may claim a medical care insurance subtraction under sec. 71.05 (6) (b) 19., 35., or 38., Wis. Stats., less any amount that is paid with a premium assistance credit under section 36B of the Internal Revenue Code. Section 9662 of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2) provides that any amount of excess advance premium tax credit received over the amount of premium tax credit allowed does not need to be repaid on the federal income tax return. As a result, the amount of the medical care insurance subtraction should not be increased by any amount reported on line 2 of federal Schedule 2 (Form 1040). If the taxpayer has already filed their return to claim the amount of premium assistance credit paid on line 2 of federal Schedule 2 (Form 1040) and that amount was used to increase the amount of their medical care insurance subtraction, the taxpayer must file an amended 2020 Wisconsin income tax return to report the reduced amount of medical care insurance subtraction. The department cannot make the adjustment for the taxpayer because we do not have the detail of the amounts entered on the Medical Care Insurance Worksheet from page three of these instructions. If the taxpayer has not yet filed their 2020 Wisconsin income tax return, they should not enter an amount on line 7 of Worksheet 1 or line 4 of Worksheet 2 when figuring the amount of medical care insurance subtraction allowed.

  • Towards Bend-Contour-Free Dislocation Imaging Via Diffraction Contrast STEM
    Towards bend-contour-free dislocation imaging via diffraction contrast STEM Yuanyuan Zhua,*, Colin Ophusb, Mychailo B. Toloczkoa, and Danny J. Edwardsa a. Energy and Environment Directorate, Nuclear Sciences Division, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Richland, WA 99352, USA b. National Center for Electron Microscopy, Molecular Foundry, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Berkeley, California 94720, USA Abstract Dislocation imaging using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has been an invaluable tool for characterizing crystallographic defects in metals. Recent advances in electron microscopy techniques have allowed for new dislocation imaging techniques to be devised. Compared to conventional TEM imaging, diffraction contrast imaging scanning transmission electron microscopy (DCI STEM) can provide better defect contrast with almost negligible bend contour artifacts, enabling more effective analysis of dislocation structures. Here we outline a simple procedure to help set up DCI STEM experiments, using a body-centered cubic HT-9 ferritic/martensitic alloy as an example. To study the behavior of dislocation imaging in STEM mode, we compared the imaging parameters in DCI STEM mode to corresponding conventional TEM images. We found that using a few milliradians of STEM convergence and collection semi-angles, S and S, alleviates bend contours by averaging out the rocking-curve oscillation in reciprocal space. Practical guidelines regarding STEM parameters and specimen orientation and thickness are provided for DCI STEM dislocation imaging. Lastly, we show that coupling DCI STEM with spectrum images of Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy and of Energy-dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy offers a comprehensive characterization of crystallographic defects and chemical information of complex microstructures. Keywords: STEM, Dislocation image, Diffraction contrast, Reciprocity, Bend contour 1.

  • EXAMINING the POST-TRANSCRIPTIONAL REGULATION of LUNATIC FRINGE (Lfng) in the MOUSE SEGMENTATION CLOCK
    EXAMINING THE POST-TRANSCRIPTIONAL REGULATION OF LUNATIC FRINGE (Lfng) IN THE MOUSE SEGMENTATION CLOCK DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kanu Wahi Graduate Program in Molecular Genetics The Ohio State University 2016 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Susan Cole, Advisor Dr. Keith Slotkin Dr. Robin Wharton Dr. Dawn Chandler Copyright by Kanu Wahi 2016 Abstract Somitogenesis is a developmental process in vertebrates involving periodic formation of somites that bud from an unsegmented region known as the pre-somitic mesoderm (PSM) and give rise to the axial skeleton and skeletal muscle in the developed organism. The process of somitogenesis is regulated by a "segmentation clock" that times somite formation and is evolutionarily conserved among vertebrates. Genes, such as Lunatic fringe (Lfng), are required for normal clock function in chickens, mice and humans and exhibit rapid cyclic expression in the PSM with a period that matches the rate of somite formation. To maintain rapid oscillations, especially in the posterior PSM, it is hypothesized that the Lfng transcript should be promptly degraded to ensure its clearance of from cells before the next round of oscillation begins. The 3’UTR of Lfng contains number of conserved sequences that could regulate Lfng expression at the post transcriptional level. In this study we explore the post- transcriptional regulation of the Lfng transcript by the Lfng 3’UTR in the context of the segmentation clock. The Lfng 3'UTR has binding sites for microRNAs (miRNAs), such as miR-125a and miR-200b that are known to affect transcript stability via the 3’UTR.

International Environmental Agreements among Heterogeneous Countries with Social Preferences Charles D. Kolstad NBER Working Paper No. 20204 June 2014 JEL No. H40,H41,Q5 ABSTRACT Achieving efficiency for many global environmental problems requires voluntary cooperation among sovereign countries due to the public good nature of pollution abatement. The theory of international environmental agreements (IEAs) in economics seeks to understand how cooperation among countries on pollution abatement can be facilitated. However, why cooperation occurs when noncooperation appears to be individually rational has been an issue in economics for at least a half century. The problem is that theory suggests fairly low (even zero) levels of contribution to a public good and high levels of free riding.
