[ "Call him the Bard of Avon or England’s national poet or ShakeyP, there’s no doubt that William Shakespeare is one of the top contributors in the business today. ", "That’s why we were positively exploding with anticipation when we learned he’d be dropping by our office with a recent build of his latest project, tentatively entitled Hamlet. ", "To our disappointment, Hamlet wasn’t a cross between ham and an omelette, as tasty as that sounds. ", "No, it’s a new play, one that according to its author will break new ground in the often staid tragedy genre. ", "But will Shakespeare’s Hamlet really live up to all the hype? ", "Hit the jump to find out how our demo went.", "\n\nThe scene we were presented with shows the titular Hamlet talking to his mother, Gertrude. ", "Apparently, Hamlet’s father has been killed, and his uncle Claudius sits on the throne under somewhat suspicious circumstances. ", "As best as we could make out, another man, Polonius, is spying on the conversation, and Hamlet, mistaking him for his villainous uncle, stabs him through a sheet. ", "Or would have if the sword actually penetrated it– a Shakespeare rep was quick to point out that the plastic sword we saw would be replaced by a very realistic looking sword in the final shipping version of the play. ", "After that, a ghost shows up and says some more stuff that we didn’t quite get– the plot gets very convoluted at this point, and all we could tell was that Gertrude was mad at her son and that he would be off to England. ", "All in all, though, it was a pretty engaging scene and we were left with a definite sense of what Hamlet is going to be all about.", "\n\nWhat did we like?", "\n\nThe words: If ShakeyP is famous for anything it’s for his way with words. ", "Everyone’s speech was beautifully written and listening to the flowery soliloquies was like experiencing genuine literature.", "\n\nThe action: The only action sequence we got to witness was Hamlet stabbing Polonius, but we were impressed with what we saw. ", "Hamlet convincingly lashed out and both Polonius and the sheet in front of him reacted realistically, with the cloth waving around and the old man dropping to one knee before he died. ", "It’s nuances like this that have given Shakespeare the name he has today.", "\n\nWhat didn’t we like?", "\n\nWhiny young protagonist: Well, maybe ShakeyP’s been taking a little too many cues from the JRPG bag of tricks these days. ", "Hamlet himself is a pretty unlikeable hero, one who spends too much time dithering about what to do and not enough time kicking ass. ", "The devs are trying to portray him as a red-blooded young lad by giving him a love interest named Ophelia, but he seems suspiciously more at home with his buddies Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. ", "How gamers are going to identify with him is beyond us.", "\n\nThe words: Did we mention the play is long and full of words? ", "We found ourselves nodding off a certain points. ", "We suggested some kind of skip function, and the Bard seemed to like our idea, saying that not everyone really needs to hear all of that stuff. ", "We’ll see if something like that gets implemented for the final version.", "\n\nGraphics: The visuals have never been the strongest suit of Shakespeare’s works, but the ones we saw in Hamlet were a little bit concerning. ", "The scene we watched only had three characters on the stage at any one time, and the bedroom setting was so sparse it looked like it could have been something from a couple generations back. ", "Hopefully by the time the play comes out they’ll have passed a few more renders over the whole thing to bring it up to more modern standards." ]

", "However, the solutions that have been presented using light to align the film or CR cassette or DR receiver are constrained by a number of factors. ", "The '143 and '578 MacMahon disclosures require that a fixed Source-to-Image Distance (SID) be determined beforehand, then apply triangulation with this fixed SID value.

", "Both the Bautista '671 and Madsen '486 approaches use multiple light sources that are projected from the radiation source and intersect in various ways on the receiver.", "\nSignificantly, the solutions noted above are often of little of no value where the receiver and its accompanying grid are hidden from view, lying fully behind the patient as may be the case, for example, for chest x-ray imaging with a portable system. ", "Today's portable radiation imaging devices allow considerable flexibility for placement of the film cassette, CR cassette, or Digital Radiography DR receiver by the radiology technician.

", "Portable radiography apparatus must be compact and lightweight, which makes the mechanical alignment approach such as that given in the '948 MacMahon disclosure less than desirable.

", "Many less expensive portable radiation imaging units do not have the control logic and motion coordination components that are needed in order to achieve the necessary adjustment. ", "None of these approaches gives the operator the needed information for making a manual adjustment that is in the right direction for correcting misalignment, particularly where an anti-scatter grid is used.", "\nA related problem is the need to achieve a source-to-image distance (SID) that is well-suited for the image to be obtained and for the grid used. ", "Conventional alignment solutions do not provide SID information, leaving it to the technician to make separate measurements or to make an approximate SID adjustment. ", "Moreover, conventional solutions do not provide the technician with tools to help reduce backscatter, caused by misalignment or poor adjustment of the collimator blades. ", "This type of scatter, while not particularly problematic with other types of radiographic imaging, such as dental and mammographic imaging, can be troublesome with portable radiographic imaging apparatus, since the radiation is directed over a broad area. ", "Radiation that works past the imaging receiver and any blocking element associated with the receiver can inadvertently be reflected back into the receiver, adversely affecting image quality. ", "To reduce backscatter as much as possible for chest x-rays and other types of x-ray, the technician is required to estimate the location and orientation or outline of the imaging receiver and to adjust the collimator accordingly.", "\nSignificantly, none of these conventional solutions described earlier is particularly suitable for retrofit to existing portable radiography systems. ", "That is, implementing any of these earlier solutions would be prohibitive in practice for all but newly manufactured equipment and could have significant cost impact.", "\nYet another problem not addressed by many of the above solutions relates to the actual working practices of radiologists and radiological technicians. ", "A requirement for perpendicular delivery of radiation, given particular emphasis in the Tanaka et al. '", "553 application, is not optimal for all types of imaging. ", "In fact, there are some types of diagnostic images for which an oblique (non-perpendicular) incident radiation angle is most desirable. ", "For example, for the standard chest anterior-posterior (AP) view, the recommended central ray angle is oblique from the perpendicular (normal) by approximately 3-5 degrees. ", "Conventional alignment systems, while they provide for normal incidence of the central ray, do not adapt to assist the technician for adjusting to an oblique angle.", "\nThus, it can be seen that there is a need for an apparatus that enables proper angular alignment and positioning of a radiation source relative to an image detection device and an optional antiscatter grid for recording a radiation image." ]

[ "Thursday, October 26, 2006\n\n\"The poor of the rich countries subsidizing the rich of the poor countries\"\n\nFor various reasons I missed Gerard Baker’s very funny and very angry piece about the self-righteous campaign Gap (the store that will sell somewhat inferior goods for superior prices).", "\n\nThe company has joined forces with Bono and the Product Red campaign that has signed up some of the most blue chip of names such as American Express and Motorola. ", "It is pledging to give half of the profits from its iconic red T-shirts and leather jackets to Aids/HIV relief. ", "The campaign was launched here last week, with the always crucial imprimatur of Hollywood. ", "It features stars such as Steven Spielberg and Penelope Cruz in red T-shirts with one-word messages that say, with a modesty that doesn’t fit quite as well as the clothes, INSPI(RED) and ADMI(RED).", "\n\nThat’s Bono of U2, incidentally, the group that has relocated its music publishing company to the Netherlands as the Irish government decided to stop tax allowances for “artists”. ", "Far it be from me to decry good business practice that means you can halve your tax bill but it ill behoves the same people to scream abuse at Western governments for not handing over more tax money (that’s your money and mine, by the way) to a bunch of unaccountable, kleptocratic tyrants.", "\n\nGerard Baker goes through all the various arguments, mentioning inter alia that fifty years of aid have resulted in an Africa whose countries are considerably poorer than they had been when they became independent. ", "This has now been accepted by such luminaries as Richard Downden of the Royal Africa Society.", "\n\nThe aid that has gone to Africa for over 40 years has long ago outstripped the Marshall aid that the West European countries received for 4 years (which was then repaid) with nothing but negative results. ", "And, Mr Baker adds, the only thing that will help poor countries is free trade, that is people in the rich west buying the goods that is produced by the poor in the poor countries.", "\n\nI am sick and TI(RED) of companies trying to demonstrate to me how seriously they take their supposed duty to bring joy to and remove pain from the world. ", "They can take their charge card (S, CREW-necks and mobile phones and ask THEMSELVES) whether this is really the sort of thing they should be doing with their shareholders' money.", "\n\nNow I don’t here intend to demean the charitable spirit or the work of good people such as Bono or Sir Bob Geldof, nor the perfectly decent motivation of millions in the wealthy world who genuinely want to help to improve the wretched lives of those less fortunate than themselves.", "\n\nDon’t get me wrong; charity remains one of the finest of virtues and should, in almost all instances, be encouraged.", "\n\nNor am I going to point out the nauseating conspicuousness of the consumption represented by the RED campaign (“Look,” it says, “I not only look good. ", "I AM good!”) ", "Nor am I even going to dwell on the fact, though I could, that for all the aid Africa has received over the past 50 years, the continent remains poorer than ever, and certainly poorer than parts of the world that have received little in the way of charity in that time.", "\n\nMy problem here is with what this does for the very idea of capitalism, for companies pursuing their real and entirely wholesome responsibility of making money. ", "Free market capitalism, untrammelled by marketing people in alliance with special interest groups on a mission to save the world, has done more to alleviate poverty than any well-intentioned anti-poverty campaign in the history of the globe.", "\n\nBy concentrating on selling quality, low-priced goods, some of them made with labour that would otherwise lie idle (and dying) in the developing world, Gap saves lives.", "\n\nWell, it would do if the goods were low-priced but let that pass. ", "I suspect they are lower priced in the States than here.", "\n\nGerard Baker is a little worried about the fact that companies like Gap actually uses its clout to campaign against capitalism, which cannot be a good thing either for the developed or the developing world.", "\n\nHowever, Tim Worstall, takes a different view. ", "In his opinion, the Gap campaign is nothing but capitalism, red in tooth and claw, at work.", "\n\nThat there are people out there so deluded as to refuse to purchase goods manufactured by the poor of the world, thus making said poor richer, is obviously true. ", "So, create a new brand, which mollifies these people's (entirely misguided) concerns. ", "Take the money off them and use it to purchase goods from the poor of the world and thus make said poor richer. …", "\n\nIn the standard business textbooks this would be a form of branding, of product differentiation, no different from the same companies making both cheap and expensive soap powders that are exactly the same except for their packaging. ", "Consumers get an increase in their utility by buying something that more accords with their self-image of themselves, companies get greater profits because they are able to price discriminate between those with those different self-images.", "\n\nThere is much to be said for Mr Worstall’s point of view. ", "Gap is not going to be the loser by that campaign. ", "Whether the people of sub-Saharan Africa gain anything by it is, at least, open to discussion." ]

", "The availability of closely matched, non-GE varieties of crops allowed scientists to tease out the contribution of the GE traits from other contributors to yield performance.", "\n\nThat was important because, before Failure To Yield, the possibility that anything other than GE could contribute to yield was rarely discussed.

", "Pest resistance, for example, can enable a farmer to harvest more when insects threaten, but the yield is bounded at the upper end by the intrinsic characteristics of the crop.", "\n\nThe studies showed that the predominant GE traits found in corn and soybeans—herbicide tolerance and BT toxin—did not contribute to annual increases in intrinsic yield observed in corn, but–and here’s the important part—increases in intrinsic yield were the result of conventional breeding and agronomic practices.", "\n\nNo one has ever challenged this key finding of Failure to Yield. ", "In part, this is because it simply makes sense. ", "The steady 1-2% increases in intrinsic yields in corn were evident long before the advent of GE and so couldn’t be solely attributable to GE.

", "As long as no one highlighted the central role of conventional breeding in increasing intrinsic yield, promoters of biotechnology were able to imply it was their doing.", "\n\nBut even more importantly, here was proof from land grant scientists that conventional breeding and agronomics were outperforming genetic engineering on a fundamental agronomic trait. ", "That doesn’t comport with the image of biotechnology as a transformational technology essential to solving all the world’s problems.", "\n\nDoug’s analysis of the contribution of biotechnology crops to operational yield found that indeed BT crops had increased yields by fending off pests.

(", "Deterrence is certainly compatible with determinism: seeing someone get punished affects your brain, often making you less likely to transgress.) ", "I have no idea how Churchland draws a connection between understanding the correlates of behavior and letting people go free, and then—vigilante justice! ", "We already know that “criminal law is about public safety and welfare,” and no determinist thinks otherwise.

", "And when we know that, we’ll be better able to treat them. ", "But as we learn more about the brain, my hope is that we will be less and less willing to punish people on the assumption that they made the “wrong choice”, avoid retribution, and begin to design a system of punishment that not only protects society and deters others, but, above all, fixes the problems, both social and neurological, that lead people to break the law." ]

", "This has contributed to a significant reduction in clinical malaria cases in the country \\[[@CR7]\\]. ", "However, the gains made are fragile due to the decrease of efficacy of interventions, partially as a result of insecticide resistance development that has spread throughout Africa \\[[@CR4], [@CR23], [@CR24]\\]. ", "Rwanda achieved universal coverage with LLINs in 2011, but the major challenge is to maintain this coverage and use with effective mosquito nets, especially after it was recently reported for Rwanda that LLIN effectiveness lasts less than 3 years due to the rapid loss of insecticidal activity and physical deterioration in the field \\[[@CR25]\\]. ", "LLIN deterioration problems were also shown in recent findings from Senegal where damaged nets provided less protection from malaria compared to intact ones \\[[@CR26]\\].", "\n\nThe fact that millions of nets may have lost their effectiveness and thus continue to expose mosquitoes to a sub-lethal dose of pyrethroids is of major concern, because this may contribute to the further development of resistance. ", "Similarly, annual consecutive use of pyrethroids in IRS, combined with extensive use of pyrethroids in agriculture has also implications for emerging insecticide resistance \\[[@CR27]\\]. ", "Hence, Rwanda with the support of PMI and the Global Fund has been keen to monitor insecticide resistance so that it can take action to mitigate the emergence of resistance. ", "In 2010, an initial susceptibility survey was conducted in eight sites in which mosquitoes were tested with deltamethrin, permethrin, bendiocarb, malathion and DDT using the CDC bottle assay \\[[@CR28], [@CR29]\\]. ", "These mosquitoes were found to be fully susceptible, except to DDT in two sites (E.H., unpublished data).", "\n\nThe data collected in the current surveys (2011 and 2013) confirm that resistance to DDT has been on the rise since 2011. ", "In addition, the results show resistance to the pyrethroids (deltamethrin, permethrin, and lambda-cyhalothrin) being present in 2011 and further increasing in 2013. ", "Although DDT was banned for usage in Rwanda in 1989, high levels of resistance are of concern because resistance to DDT confers cross-resistance to pyrethroids \\[[@CR10]\\]. ", "Mosquitoes were fully susceptible to fenitrothion in all the sites, while possible emergence of resistance to bendiocarb was reported in the present study. ", "Nevertheless, a switch to IRS with bendiocarb was made from September 2013 onwards so that the two main vector control interventions (LLINs and IRS) employed different classes of insecticide to delay resistance development.", "\n\nThe presence of *kdr* mutations recorded in some sites can be explained by intense indoor interventions with IRS and LLINs, as was reported in Burundi and Tanzania \\[[@CR30], [@CR31]\\]. ", "However, it should be noted that the frequency of *kdr* in the vector population may not be a reliable marker for actual resistance \\[[@CR32]\\] and that care should be taken when interpreting such data as other resistance mechanisms can play a role as well. ", "In current study, metabolic resistance involving oxidases was proven by using piperonyl butoxide (PBO). ", "Susceptibility was fully restored in the six selected sites where resistance to pyrethroids had been identified. ", "This suggests that metabolic resistance may even account for all observed resistance in bioassays with malaria vectors from Rwanda.", "\n\nThe resistance level in Mimuri (Nyagatare District) could explain the high number of malaria cases occurring in this district: about 42% of all malaria cases of the 30 districts in 2011 were found here \\[[@CR33]\\] before the introduction of bendiocarb for IRS. ", "This site, as well as Mashesha, Mareba, and Kibogora, is characterized by rice growing in which agricultural pesticides, and pyrethroids in particular, are extensively used.", "\n\nIn response to these findings, Rwanda developed and implemented an insecticide resistance management (IRM) plan in 2013 that recommended transitioning to non-pyrethroid IRS to mitigate pyrethroid resistance and to lengthen the effectiveness of LLINs \\[[@CR6]\\]. ", "Rwanda transitioned to carbamate (bendiocarb) for IRS and the country will switch to a long-lasting organophosphate (Actellic--pirimiphos-methyl CS) in 2016 due to the reported trends of suggestive resistance to bendiocarb. ", "The question remains, however, whether Rwanda should continue with blanket IRS treatment in an entire district when data on resistance is reported from only one sentinel site per district. ", "To answer this question, it is recommended that additional sites should be identified in the targeted districts in order to determine whether or not the spread of resistance is homogeneous throughout the district. ", "Similar to a recent report from Malawi, the use of long-lasting IRS formulations, such as pirimiphos-methyl, may be costly initially, but cost-effective in the longer term in managing insecticide resistance \\[[@CR34]\\].", "\n\nIn this study, characterization of *An.

", "This technique can be very time consuming.", "\nIn another technique, known as nth fail mode, each location is read and after some predetermined number (n) of failures the clock is stopped and the data for the current failed location is sent to the tester. ", "Using this technique, testing can be done at-speed. ", "In some cases nth fail mode testing may be done as much as 60 times as fast as normal mode bitmapping. ", "However, there can be significant drawbacks to nth fail mode bitmapping, particularly for high frequency devices. ", "For example, stopping on the nth fail to output the data requires locking of the compare data in the same cycle that the error is detected. ", "To do so in high frequency devices can be expensive in terms of additional hardware overhead (e.g., use of additional “shadow flops” or high power flops) to stop the clock. ", "Alternatively, to reduce the hardware complexity, there are some hardware simplifications such as partial locking, that may be used. ", "But to do so can compromise the bitmap data quality." ]
