		Also present in the EAF plasmid is the cluster of genes that encode bundle-forming pili (BFP), which interconnect bacteria within microcolonies and thus promote their stabilization (1).
		The EAF plasmid is not essential for the formation of A/E lesions, although its presence enhances their efficiency, probably through the influence of a cluster of plasmid-borne regulatory genes (per A, B, C) that increase expression of the chromosomal LEE genes (1).
		The situation in developing countries is not well defined, but several studies in Brazil in the 1980s and early 1990s showed a high frequency of typical serotypes (34).

		There were many reasons for this, part of the reason lay with the fact that Babbage was a perfectionist and would continuously delay the project as he tinkered and re-tinkered with his designs.
		In Georg Cantor's theorem that there are always more classes of things of a given kind than there are things of that kind - a key idea in the theory of sets - paradox is set to work for the advancement of theory.
		Its frightening inroads on theoretical certainty have been halted, but not on our terms; many potentially valuable ideas have had to be abandoned, and much of mathematics' current sense of security derives from its tendency to turn a blind eye to unresolved problems.

		Using warps and wefts of different colours gave you hundreds of coloured pixels per minute, from which you built up your desired pattern, but it was slow and monotonous work, and subject, again, to operator error.
		Swade explains how the Swedish engineer Georg Scheutz, having read of Babbage's undertaking in 1834, and understanding the basic principles, was inspired to produce his own design for a difference engine.
		Scheutz, however, kept it simple, so that when the plans and prototypes were ready in 1837, he was able to set his 15-year old son Edvard to work at putting it together.

		The machine was controlled by an external program provided by punched cards (an idea borrowed from the Joseph-Marie Jacquard (1752-1834), a French silk weaver, who invented the Jacquard loom in 1801, an automatic loom controlled by punched cards) which gave it the capability (in modern terminology) to perform branching and looping operations.

		It could produce more than 120 tabular lines per hour and, although not as well built as Babbage's and therefore subject to some error, nevertheless it was the first concrete demonstration of the enormous mathematical potential of such machines.
