[ "The spine is formed of a column of vertebra that extends between the cranium and pelvis. ", "The three major sections of the spine are known as the cervical, thoracic and lumbar regions. ", "There are 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, and 5 lumbar vertebrae, with each of the 24 vertebrae being separated from each other by an intervertebral disc. ", "A series of about 9 fused vertebrae extend from the lumbar region of the spine and make up the sacral and coccygeal regions of the vertebral column.", "\nThe main functions of the spine are to provide skeletal support and protect the spinal cord. ", "Even slight disruptions to either the intervertebral discs or vertebrae can result in serious discomfort due to compression of nerve fibers either within the spinal cord or extending from the spinal cord. ", "If a disruption to the spine becomes severe enough, damage to a nerve or part of the spinal cord may occur and can result in partial to total loss of bodily functions (e.g., walking, talking, breathing, etc.). ", "Therefore, it is of great interest and concern to be able to treat and correct ailments of the spine.", "\nWhen conservative efforts fail, treating spinal ailments very often includes a combination of spinal fusion and fixation. ", "Generally, spinal fusion procedures involve removing some or all of an intervertebral disc, and inserting one or more intervertebral implants into the resulting disc space. ", "Introducing the intervertebral implant serves to restore the height between adjacent vertebrae (“disc height”) and maintain the height and/or correct vertebral alignment issues until bone growth across the disc space connects the adjacent vertebral bodies. ", "Fusions may be performed across a single level or multiple levels.", "\nFixation systems are often surgically implanted during a fusion procedure to help stabilize the vertebrae to be fused until the fusion is complete. ", "Fixation systems often use a combination of rods, plates, pedicle screws, and bone hooks to attach a fixation construct to the affected vertebrae. ", "Like the fusion, the fixation system can be implanted across a single level or across multiple levels, and typically, the fixation system is positioned to span each level to be fused. ", "Fixations systems are designed to engage either the posterior elements (e.g. pedicle screw systems, spinous process plates) or anteriorly, the vertebral bodies (e.g. plates, anterior staple/rod systems). ", "The configuration required for each procedure and patient varies due to the ailment being treated, the specific method of treatment (e.g. surgical approach, etc. . . . ) ", "and the patient's specific anatomical characteristics.", "\nA trend in the medical community is the move away from performing surgery via traditional “open” techniques in favor of minimally invasive or minimal access techniques. ", "Open surgical techniques are generally undesirable in that they typically require large incisions and high amounts of tissue displacement to gain access to the surgical target site, which produces concomitantly high amounts of pain, lengthened hospitalization (increasing health care costs), and high morbidity in the patient population. ", "Less-invasive surgical techniques (including so-called “minimal access” and “minimally invasive” techniques) are gaining favor due to the fact that they involve accessing the surgical target site via incisions of substantially smaller size with greatly reduced tissue displacement requirements. ", "This, in turn, reduces the pain, morbidity and cost associated with such procedures. ", "For example, a minimally invasive lateral (from the patients side) approach to access the disc for fusion has been developed over the last decade and demonstrated great success in reducing patient morbidity, shortening the length of hospitalization, and decreasing recovery time when employed.", "\nMinimally invasive posterior pedicle based fixation systems are also now well known in the art and can be used in conjunction with the lateral based access for fusion when multiple levels are involved. ", "However, this can be disadvantageous in that it generally involves repositioning the patient in between the fusion procedure and the fixation procedure. ", "On the other hand, the availability of minimally invasive fixation systems for fixing to the anterior column is generally limited to single level procedures. ", "Accordingly, there is a need for minimally invasive fixation systems designed to engage the anterior column across multiple levels, particularly in conjunction with a lateral access fusion procedure.", "\nThe devices and methods described in the present application address these needs." ]

", "The most recent World Radiocommunication Conference here in Geneva last year approved new key spectrum allocations for environmental monitoring and disaster mitigation.", "\n\nAnd we’re active on the ground, providing communications equipment for disaster relief, and technical expertise to help authorities get backbone links up again quickly after a disaster.", "\n\nMore, however, still needs to be done. ", "That’s why we developed a new international framework that was put in place in December 2007. ", "This framework focuses on putting in place national and international disaster prevention and response agreements that can serve as the basis of relief efforts in the event of a catastrophe. ", "When disaster strikes, no-one should be wasting time brokering deals. ", "And no-one should be arguing as to who might get credit for the rescue and clean-up.

", "It’s home to the most wired, most technophile communities in the world. ", "And it’s also home to LDCs and marginalized island states. ", "That makes it a great test bed for new ideas, new technologies - and exciting new applications.", "\n\nQ: The theme for this year’s ITU Telecom event is New Generation, New Values. ", "What does this mean, in practice?", "\n\nA: We chose this theme because, quite simply, no region of the world embraces ICTs like Asia. ", "Entire generations now define themselves through technology. ", "That’s a huge force for innovation, as manufacturers and service providers alike clamber to make the most of the opportunities by devising compelling new products and services designed to capture the consumer imagination - and wallet. ", "In other countries, technology tends to be applied as a tool, to meet user needs. ", "In Asia, it’s already very much a lifestyle.", "\n\nA: There’s no doubt that this is true in areas like mobile and broadband. ", "Asia spans some of the most sophisticated markets with the highest levels of ICT penetration and growth in the world. ", "China and India are the world’s largest and fastest growing markets, with mobile subscribers alone totalling over 600 million and 280 million respectively by mid-2008.

", "This series comprised 133 consecutive patients with 136 carotid stenoses of which 128 carotid arteries (94%) were either symptomatic (93 out of 136 = 68.4%) or had a greater than 70% stenosis (35 out of 136 = 25.7%) and 8 out of 136 were asymptomatic and had stenoses between 50% and 70%. ", "Patients underwent neurologic and sonographic evaluation before the procedure and during follow-up (mean 18 months).

", "The degree of stenosis decreased from a mean of 81% to a mean of 12.3% immediately after the procedure, 22 patients were defined as restenosis of which 9 were symptomatic.

[ "Former senator Rick Santorum announced Wednesday that he would again seek the Republican nomination for the presidency.", "\n\nSantorum, who finished second to eventual nominee Mitt Romney in 2012, held a rally at Penn United Technologies in Cabot, Pennsylvania, just a few miles from the western Pennsylvania town where he grew up, to announce his decision.", "\n\nIn a speech to a crowd of several hundred people holding signs and chanting his name, Santorum touted his message of “blue-collar conservatism”. ", "Although the former Pennsylvania senator has long been known as a social conservative, he is playing up his populist bona fides this cycle and emphasizing his concern about immigration and skepticism about free trade deals. ", "The theme was even obvious in his campaign’s theme song, a guitar-driven country track titled “Take Back America”.", "\n\nSantorum came on stage holding a hunk of coal and proclaiming “this is where it all started”, a reference to his grandfather who immigrated from Italy to become a coal miner. ", "He went on to rail against “big labor, big government and yes, big business”.", "\n\n\n\nThe former two-term senator offered a strident criticism of increased immigration, both legal and illegal. ", "To Santorum, big business backed immigration reform to drive down wages and “control costs”, while Hillary Clinton backed it “because, well, she just wants votes”. ", "He derided those “whose priorities were profits and power”. ", "Instead, Santorum insisted “my priority is you, the American worker”.", "\n\nYet for all the populism, Santorum didn’t shy away from the social conservatism for which he is best known. ", "The former Pennsylvania lawmaker got his biggest cheers in the crowd when he referenced his work to pass the partial birth abortion ban in 2003 and when he proclaimed: “As president, I will stand for the principles every life matters: the poor, the disabled and the unborn.”", "\n\nThe crowd in the western Pennsylvania warehouse, filled with cardboard boxes and orange shelving which stretched 30ft in the air, ranged from supporters who travelled long distances to those excited to see a local boy who had done good.", "\n\nGrant Gil had travelled from Lafayette, Louisiana, in order to see Santorum’s announcement. ", "Dressed in a pinstriped suit, Gil said he hadn’t slept in 30 hours and saw Santorum as similar to Ronald Reagan. “", "I loved Reagan,” he told the Guardian. ", "Gil thought Santorum “had a lot of very similar qualities” including “sincerity” and the will to do what was right, regardless of the political cost.", "\n\nDwight Sarver said he liked Santorum because he was a strong conservative and was supporting him because he “was raised around here”. ", "Sarver seemed to be the very epitome of the blue-collar conservative that Santorum was trying to woo. ", "As he told the Guardian: “I was never fond of unions, even though I belonged to three of them.”", "\n\nIn his first bid for the White House in 2012, Santorum finished second to Mitt Romney in the Republican primary and won 11 states. ", "Long considered an underdog, Santorum surged in the run-up to the crucial Iowa caucuses. ", "Although Romney was initially judged to have won Iowa, a recount eventually showed that Santorum had won by a hair. ", "The former senator went on to battle Romney for several months before he finally dropped out in April, just days after Romney edged him out in the Wisconsin primary.", "\n\nPrior to his White House bid, Santorum served two terms in the House of Representatives and two terms in the Senate, representing his home state of Pennsylvania. ", "The former senator lost his 2006 bid for re-election to Democrat Bob Casey by a margin of 59%-41%.", "\n\nSantorum faces new obstacles in his second run for the White House. ", "Unlike in 2012, there are a number of strong contenders, like Ted Cruz and Mike Huckabee, who appeal to the Republican Party’s evangelical base in the 2016 race.", "\n\nFurthermore, Santorum faces the possibility of being excluded from televised debates, as he is just at the national polling threshold necessary to participate. ", "The current criteria set by Fox News for the first Republican debate in August are that only those candidates in the top ten in national polling can participate and Santorum is currently polling in tenth place in the 16-person GOP field.", "\n\nJohn Brabender, a top advisor to Santorum, expressed his concern about possibility of any candidates being excluded from the debates, noting that the GOP had 12 credible candidates this year and he thought it would be to the Republican Party’s advantage to put them all on stage. ", "Brabender also emphasized that Santorum was starting from behind compared to the rest of the field: “He doesn’t have a TV show on Fox and he’s not on the Senate.”", "\n\nThe top GOP strategist went on to note that the former senator’s campaign launch this year was a far bigger deal than it was four years ago, with Fox News going live to cover it and the national press corps on the scene. ", "In contrast, he thought that there might have only been a single news camera there last time.", "\n\nIn addition to national press attention, Santorum will still have the backing of financier Foster Friess. ", "The Wyoming-based investor, who attended the rally, donated several million to a pro-Santorum Super PAC in 2012 and was credited with keeping the campaign of the former Pennsylvania senator afloat into the early spring. ", "Friess played a little coy with the Guardian about whether he’d get behind Santorum to the same extent this year but still made his support clear, saying: “Well, does the fact I just spent $26,000 on a charter flight to come from Jackson Hole answer that?”", "\n\nAfter his announcement, Santorum is scheduled to bring his “Take Back America Tour” to the early primary states of Iowa and South Carolina in the next few days." ]

", "Such devices sustain high voltages in the off-state and yield low voltages and high saturation current densities in the on-state.", "\nIt is known that cell density is important for the performance of a semiconductor device. ", "In the case of a low voltage MOSFET, cell density is directly related to the MOSFET channel density, and the channel density dominates the on-resistance of the MOSFET. ", "In the case of high voltage devices, on-resistance is subject to the influence of the drift region, e.g., column 13 in FIG. ", "1. ", "When a mesa/trench becomes narrower, channel density and drift region density increase. ", "Because a trench acts as a “dead space”, increasing channel density alone does not improve the on-resistance of the high voltage device. ", "In addition, the narrower mesa of a high voltage device can be pinched off more readily.", "\nIn the case of high voltage superjunction devices, the mesas can be doped with increasing amounts of one or more dopants when mesa/trench width is narrowed. ", "The increasing amounts of dopants allow the narrower mesas to sustain higher voltage without being pinched off. ", "Therefore, the combination of increased cell density and increased doping concentration helps to reduce the on-resistance for a superjunction device, allowing the device to accommodate a higher density of current at high voltage. ", "For example, in the case of the trench-type superjunction device illustrated in FIG. ", "1, the narrower the width of the mesas 9, the greater the number of the p and n columns 11, 13 per unit area, and the more current the device can accommodate. ", "Therefore, for high voltage superjunction devices, it is desirable to reduce the width of the mesas 9 to pack as many p and n columns 11, 13 as possible per unit area. ", "The same mechanism also applies to multiple epi superjunction devices.", "\nAlthough narrower mesas can be readily achieved by adjusting the width of adjacent trenches and the diffusion process for the sidewall surfaces of the trenches during manufacture of a trench-type superjunction device, further reduction of the mesa width is restricted by the surface layout of the terminal structures for the device. ", "Like most field-effect transistors (FETs), a superjunction semiconductor device can have four terminals, known as the gate, drain, source, and body/base, with the body and the source generally connected internally to simplify the design.", "\nFIG.

", "The lateral distance 31 is generally limited by the width of the source regions 27 and the width of the body contact regions 25. ", "Ideally, self-aligned contact technologies have been used to form the electrical contacts between the semiconductor device and the terminals, such as the gate 19, the source 17, and the drain 15. ", "Drastic reduction in the size of one or more terminal structures, such as the width of the gate electrode 19, the source regions 27, the body regions 23, and/or the body contact regions 25, can potentially impact the performance of the device. ", "For example, when the channel density is increased by narrowing the width of the source regions 27 or the body contact regions 25, contact resistance is increased, resulting in parasitic npn turn-on, consequently destroying the device.", "\nThe width 29 of the mesa 9 can be further narrowed by reducing the width of the gate electrode 19, i.e., by using a trench gate. ", "Instead of using a planar gate electrode as shown in FIG.

[ "Giuseppe Schirò\n\nGiuseppe Schirò (Arbërisht: Zef Skiroi; 10 August 1865 – 17 February 1927) was an Arbëreshë neo-classical poet, linguist, publicist and folklorist from Sicily. ", "His literary work marked the transition to modern Albanian literature in Italy.", "\n\nEarly life\nSchirò was born in Piana dei Greci (now Piana degli Albanesi). ", "While still young he was encouraged by his cousin Cristina Gentile Mandalà (1856–1919) to value his native Arbëreshë language and culture. ", "She would assist him later in collecting local folktales and published a compilation of folktales herself. ", "At the age of nine he wrote poem inspired by nationalism and dedicated to Albania's most important national hero Skanderbeg.", "\n\nIn 1890, he graduated with a law degree at the University of Palermo. ", "However, his main passion remained classical and Italian folklore and literature, which he taught in 1888–1894 at the Garibaldi secondary school in Palermo. ", "At the university he befriended Luigi Pirandello, who would become a world-famous novelist and playwright.", "\n\nLiterary career\nHe wrote poems in both Italian and Albanian, and soon began to collaborate with literary and political writings in various periodicals. ", "In 1887, he founded the magazine Arbri i rii (La giovine Albania/The young Albania), which was followed in 1890 with Archivio albanese (Albanian archive) and in 1904 with the short-lived La bandiera albanese (The Albanian flag).", "\n\nHis literary breakthrough was Rapsodie albanesi (Albanian Rhapsodies) in 1887, which made him known to Albanologists and Albanian patriots. ", "In 1891, he published an imaginary love idyll Mili e Haidhia (Mili and Haidhia), which would eventually be published in three editions (1900 and 1907), including notes on traditions, legends, customs and traditions of Piana dei Greci. ", "The work is considered to be a masterpiece of early 20th century Albanian verse and is probably his best work.", "\n\nA collection of patriotic songs Kënkat e luftës (The songs of battle), dedicated to Albanian independence, came out in Palermo in 1897, followed by the historical idyll Te dheu i huaj (To the foreign land) in 1900 about the epic escape of Albanians in the 15th century from their homeland and their arrival in Sicily. ", "He also published work on Arbëreshë folklore in Canti sacri delle colonie albanesi di Sicilia (Sacred Songs of the Albanian Colonies in Sicily) in 1907, and Canti tradizionali e altri saggi delle colonie albanesi di Sicilia (Traditional Songs and Other Essays of the Albanian colonies of Sicily) in 1923.", "\n\nAcademic career and politics\nIn October 1895, Schirò along with fellow Italo-Albanians Girolamo de Rada and Anselmo Lorecchio organised a congress on Albanian national, cultural and linguistic self-determination that convened in Corigliano Calabro and it was followed by a second congress in Lungro during February 1897. ", "Schirò's views on the Albanian question during the late Ottoman period were in support of revolution against the empire so as to take advantage of sympathy toward Albanians in the European press and influence European diplomacy toward supporting an uprising. ", "For Schirò, the existence of the Ottoman Empire was on borrowed time and he was against Albanian-Ottoman cooperation to safeguard Albanian interests as for him it was counterproductive to achieving Albanian independence.", "\n\nIn 1900 he was appointed professor of Albanian language and literature at the Istituto Regio Orientale (Royal Oriental Institute) in Naples, where he would remain until the end of his life. ", "From 1912 to 1914 Schirò worked in Albania as an inspector for Italian schools. ", "Those were the years of the birth of an independent Albania, proclaimed in November 1912 after nearly 500 years of Ottoman rule.", "\n\nMeanwhile, he had laid the foundation of the Società nazionale albanese (Albanian National Society) to affect public opinion in favour for the independence of Albania, and for the same purpose composed a poem Fiamuri i Arbërit (The Albanian flag) and the book \"The Albanians and the Balkan question\", both in 1904. ", "While devotedly Albanian, Schirò also admired Italy's cultural potential. ", "He often advocated Italy's role, with its strong Arbëreshë minority, as a protector of the weak Albanian state against the hostile intentions of its Balkan neighbours. ", "In 1913, Schirò participated in the Albanian Congress of Trieste for recognition of the political and economic independence of Albania.", "\n\nSchirò was fascinated with the early Fascist movement of Benito Mussolini. ", "In Kënkat e litorit (The Songs of the Littoral), published in 1926, he glorified the rise of the movement. ", "In local politics, he was an unyielding opponent of Nicola Barbato, the socialist leader of his hometown Piana dei Greci. ", "He supported the local Mafia boss Francesco Cuccia for mayor in April 1922. ", "Schirò publicly defended the Mafia administration of Cuccia several times, considering it \"the most suitable for the peaceful development of the best qualities of its people,\" able to open \"a new period in our history.\" ", "In a speech from the balcony of City Hall, he praised Cuccia to have had the merit and the courage \"to have done away with that red flag of socialism from our community.\"", "\n\nDeath and legacy\n\nThe death of his son Mino, murdered in a political intrigue in July 1920, shed a heavy shadow over his final years. ", "He dedicated the poem \"Mino\" to his son's death. ", "Schirò died on 17 February 1927 in Naples.", "\n\nHis absolute belief in Italy as a potential protector and custodian of the culture of Albania conflicted with the aspirations of Albanian nationalists, which advocated absolute independence, including from Italy. ", " Despite his accomplishments, Schirò was less appreciated by literary historians in Communist Albania and political criteria interfered with objective literary criticism.", "\n\nSchirò is considered to be one of the greatest figures of contemporary Sicilian Arbëresh literature. ", "According to the scholar in Albanian literature and folklore, Robert Elsie, Schirò “first succeeded in blending the romantic elements of Arbëresh folk verse with the artistic precision of Italian classical and neo-classical poetry to form a harmonious and balanced poetic corpus. ", "What Girolamo De Rada had done for Arbëresh literature in the 19th century, Giuseppe Schirò accomplished in the 20th.”", "\n\nReferences\n\nSources\n Elsie, Robert (2005).

", "Only those areas higher than the timberline, too wet or infertile, and those areas affected by a recent volcanism did not support a forest vegetation.", "\n\nPolynesian immigrants (Maori) who arrived about 1,000 years ago were responsible for a significant decline in the forested area, especially in the drier eastern regions. ", "Most destruction was by way of uncontrolled fires. ", "The Maori were generally hunter/gatherer people rather than agriculturalists.

", "Ironically, some of the incentives paid by government were to clear natural forest so that it could be replaced by planted forests of introduced species.", "\n\nThe development of these planted forests of introduced tree species has put New Zealand in an almost unique position in terms of wood production. ", "The extent of planted forests has permitted a dichotomy of management regimes to develop to the point where natural forests are almost entirely protected from both timber production and clearance, and planted forests are managed principally for wood fibre production. ", "With planted forests providing almost all domestic forest products requirements, the rising levels of harvest have created a substantial exportable surplus.", "\n\nCurrent Situation\n\nKey changes\n\nA significant change in government policy in 1985 was to have a profound effect on the New Zealand economy, with forestry being significantly affected.", "\n\nAll subsidies were removed as the first step in moving from a heavily regulated economy to a market-driven economy, in order to balance government's spending with its income. ", "Further major structural reforms included:\n\n· sale of many state-owned business, including the State's planted forests - which made up about 54% of the total planted resource;\n\n· de-regulation of financial markets, allowing free movement of funds into and out of the country;\n\n· removal of price protection, subsidies, and barriers to trade;\n\n· restructuring of the taxation system; and\n\n· clear demarcation of social versus economic objectives.", "\n\nThe result of this has been a significant change in the focus of all business sectors, including the forestry sector. ", "In particular, businesses now focus on activities which generate genuine profits, not tax leverage.", "\n\nIn the forest sector, the restructuring of the economy, including the sale of state-owned planted forest, coincided with a substantial expansion of the available harvest as a result of planting in the late 1960s and early 1970s.", "\n\nThe expanded harvest has moved the focus of the forestry sector from domestic markets to international ones, as shown below:\n\nYear\n\nTotal Planted Forest Area (ha)\n\nPercentage Privately Owned\n\nTotal Cut (m3 x 1000)\n\nPercentage Exported\n\n1985\n\n1,095,000\n\n48\n\n9,626\n\n35\n\n1987\n\n1,154,000\n\n48\n\n9,613\n\n30\n\n1990\n\n1,261,000\n\n52\n\n11,744\n\n46\n\n1993\n\n1,328,000\n\n80\n\n14,937\n\n59\n\n1996\n\n1,559,000\n\n94\n\n16,964\n\n60\n\nThe focus today is on export markets.

", "As New Zealand was naturally a forested country, the protection of forest values is vital to the conservation of biological diversity (particularly the significant number of threatened native birds, reptiles and insects) and to the protection of natural landscapes.", "\n\nThere are currently two exceptions to the requirements of this Act, which while controversial in New Zealand, are insignificant on a global level. ", "The first of these is some forest areas granted to indigenous people to develop an economic base; and the second is an area of government-owned forest. ", "The company managing the government-owned forest is not required to abide by the Act, but instead must have its management proposals audited by the Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment. ", "This audit process is independent of both the company and the government.", "\n\nThere are however moves currently aimed at bringing these last two exceptions under the auspices of the Forests Act.", "\n\nInstitutional Structure\n\nFour key central government agencies have a role in the management and protection of natural forests in New Zealand. ", "The responsibilities of each are outlined below.", "\n\n1.Ministry of Forestry - The Ministry is responsible for border control to ensure agencies injurious to both the planted forests and the natural forest are prevented from entering New Zealand. ", "Should such an unwanted pest enter the country, the Ministry is responsible for any control action that is required. ", "The recent arrival of the White Spotted Tussock Moth has seen the Ministry carry out a large scale control programme with the intention of eliminating the pest due to the threat it poses to both forests (planted and natural) and to the agricultural and horticultural sectors. ", "The second important area of responsibility of the Ministry is the approval of sustainable yield plans and permits as described above.", "\n\n2.Department of Conservation - This Department, established in 1987, is responsible for the management of all government-owned natural areas (which total about one third of New Zealand's land area). ", "In addition it is responsible for advocating for the protection of natural assets on land not in government ownership. ", "Thus for example they have input into the development of sustainable management plans for areas of natural forest, which as described above, the Ministry of Forestry must approve.", "\n\n3.Ministry for the Environment - The Ministry for the Environment arose from the recognition that government needed an agency that was not directly involved in the management of resources to oversee environmental administration. ", "This Ministry is responsible for the administration of the Resource Management Act, which as previously described, is the central piece of legislation for environmental protection and management in New Zealand.", "\n\n4.Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment - Created as an independent role, the Commission is able to investigate and report on any aspect of environmental management in New Zealand. ", "As such it can provide an audit role for government environmental agencies, and is able to criticise and make recommendations on any matter it wishes. ", "Its independence is vital to it being able to perform its functions on behalf of the people of New Zealand.", "\n\nIn addition to these central government agencies, New Zealand has an Environment Court which is responsible for making decisions on environment related matters. ", "The majority of its work relates to planning issues involving the use and development or protection of natural resources.", "\n\nThe Future to 2010\n\nDriving Forces\n\nKey drivers of the forestry sector in New Zealand over the period to 2010 will include:\n\n· Continuing rise in harvested volumes from planted forests. ", "This is projected to reach 28 million cubic metres per year by 2010, assuming ongoing new planting of 50,000 hectares per year. ", "These volumes will increase the demand for capital investment for processing.", "\n\n· Increased demands on internal infrastructure as the forestry sector becomes the largest export earner.", "\n\n· Obligations to meet international agreements on greenhouse gas emissions and climate change.", "\n\nKey Constraints for the Sector\n\nFor New Zealand, the major constraints to maximising the potential for the forestry sector to contribute to economic development and the well being of the community, are likely to emanate from outside the country. ", "These include:\n\n· Failure to achieve international market place recognition that New Zealand's dichotomous forest management system, where natural forests are protected, and wood fibre is produced in plantations, does in fact constitute sustainable forest management, and does protect biodiversity.", "\n\n· The escalating need for capital to process the increasing wood harvest from plantations.

", "Secondary spells and other abilities recharge with time. ", "Gameplay mainly revolves around screwing with the AI. ", "You can't form a line of fighters to prevent an enemy from getting through, so the way to keep them occupied while your ranged units do the heavy damage is by pissing them off and keeping them pissed.", "\n\nUnfortunately, this all works way better in theory than in practice. ", "The level 1 swordsmen, who take no damage from 1/4 of attacks and have the ability to piss an enemy off and keep it attacking them, is better than any other close combat unit combined, especially when higher level support units come into play.

", "Plus, while the whole \"unlock new secondary abilities as you go\" thing sounds interesting, some units, like necromancers, are useless until you have all 3 unlocked.", "\n\nThe controls are pretty awkward, too. ", "Keeping up with the recharge of secondary abilities requires watching those life bars like a hawk and a momentaary distraction can destroy your defensive force. ", "There's a reason only turn-based games require micro management at this level. ", "Plus, while the game doesn't take itself seriously at all, the voice acting ranges from barely-passable to teeth-grittingly awful and they give verbal confirmation to EVERY SINGLE THING you order.", "\n\nDespite all this, it still is pretty fun in the skirmish mode.

", "Still, it isn't worth $20, especially with Chronic Logic's \"limited number of installs\" web-based copy protection.", "\n\nI know I mentioned this game already, but I've got to pimp it again because it's so fun. ", "Space Hulk was a boardgame set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe where one player controls a squad of Space Marine Terminators sent on some suicidal mission in an ancient conglomeration of debris and spaceship wrecks which may contain priceless treasures, and the other player controls the endless hordes of alien genestealers that lurk onboard. ", "The thing was, while the marines needed all kinds of tactical skullduggery to survive, the aliens' job was so simple (run straight at the terminators and kill) you could play the game single player. ", "So here's the single player game on the computer!

", "Each blip will turn into anywhere between 0-6 genestealers when it enters a space marine's field of view. ", "The space marines (except for the one with the flamer) have unlimited ammo, but if a genestealer manages to close to melee range there's only maybe a 10% chance the marine will manage to kill the genestealer instead of vice-versa. ", "The marines can also set their guns on \"overwatch\" mode in which they take a free shot for every action a genestealer in view takes during the genestealers' round, but that adds the risk that your gun might jam. ", "Since a single fuckup or bad dice roll can kill a crucial team member, tension is high every single round.", "\n\nThe main complaint to be leveled at this game comes from its simple boardgame roots. ", "Shooting doesn't take range into account so sometimes you can find yourself in fucking bullshit situations where you use all 4 action points to try to shoot a door open at point blank range (genestealers are smart enough to shut doors to block your line of sight) and miss every single time. ", "The other, more unsettling problem is that this game might require you to copy some files to your windows system32 folder and register them to get the game to run. ", "The files and instructions can be found in the README HTML file. ", "I've had the game for 2 weeks with the files added and registered and none of my other programs have fucked up, nor has my virus-checker been grumpy.", "\n\nThe game includes the 18 missions, complete with backstory, that shipped with the original game.

", "I'm amazed I managed to finish any of the levels before I found out about that.", "\n\nThis was a crappy strategy game, then the price dropped and a heroic patch came out and it became a very very \"lite\" but enjoyable tactical RPG.

", "I really want to like it. ", "Tons of work and love have obviously gone into it, the graphics and music are very respectable for indie standards, there are half a dozen included campaigns, and it's been ported to every OS the team can get their hands on.", "\n\nUnfortunately the game mechanics are abstract to the point of being fucked. ", "You capture towns and recruit units advance-wars style, but after you have a decent sized force your slow rate of income is dedicated to providing army upkeep. ", "Units gain 1 XP for attacking or defending, and 8 XP for landing a killing blow. ", "After somewhere between 40 and 60 XP they level up (sometimes in a branching fashion) into a totally superior unit. ", "Your entire surviving army can (and must) be recalled in subsequent missions. ", "Later in the campaign your enemies get the ability to create level 2 or 3 units from scratch so if you haven't diligently been leveling and protecting your forces, you're fucked. ", "Is this what those Fire Emblem games were like?", "\n\nThe other screwy thing with the game is the attacking system. ", "To make ANY attack, including ranged attacks, you need to occupy an adjacent hex to the enemy. ", "Each unit type has a melee and possibly a ranged attack. ", "Units hit back at full strength with the same type of attack so the only advantage archers have is that they can hit a unit who has no ranged attacks without counterattack. ", "But when the enemy's round comes the archers are standing right on top of the melee guy who doubtless has a superior hand-to-hand attack. ", "Hit points are so high and the chance to hit so low that it takes at least 4 archers to be able to take out a single melee unit in one round.", "\n\nThe whole thing is just too screwy and abstract for my tastes. ", "This is more of a Final Fantasy fan's game than a strategy game.", "\n\nMy favorite missions in Advance Wars were the ones without factories, where you had to win the game with just the units you were given. ", "Some dudes in Slovakia share my tastes and made this gem of a game. ", "It's tactical Advance Wars with 3D graphics on a hex map.", "\n\nThe plot, which may be a subtle allegory, involves an intergalactic superpower discovering a valuable energy resource on an otherwise worthless desert planet and moving in to take control of it. ", "The planet's government quickly capitulates and the superpower expects their takeover to be a quick and painless affair only to find themselves locked in combat against a guerilla insurgency.", "\n\nThe differences between the two sides are interesting. ", "The superpower's units are one for one superior to their insurgent equivalents, but they all have shitty sight range and no dedicated scouts so they're usually fighting their way out of ambushes. ", "This is even more important because howitzer fire not only does damage, it robs a unit of one of its 2 action points. ", "It's like fuckin' Nam out there, man!", "\n\nOther things of note are that infantry comes with its own built-in mechanized transports so they're faster moving than tanks and get extra bonus from defensive terrain. ", "Air units can pass over and occupy hexes with land units on them. ", "The other nice thing is that supply vehicles have guns. ", "Shitty guns, granted, but at least they have something.", "\n\nThe only real complaint I have to aim at the game is that the lime green movement indicators are really hard to see against the yellow desert background. ", "My other complaint is that I want more. ", "You get 20 missions in the game total (and 3 AI difficulty levels) but I want some kind of skirimish mode." ]

", "Early attempts at enhancement by doctors began around the turn of the century, first with the direct injection of paraffin into the breast, then with fat-tissue transplants and later with the insertion of the plastic sponge. ", "Liquid silicone developed a grassroots following after World War II, injected into the breast by Japanese prostitutes looking for repeat business from American servicemen. ", "The practice caught on with Las Vegas showgirls, strippers and unconventional doctors who were also looking for repeat business and were willing to risk silicone's possible side effects: infection, disfigurement and migration into the internal organs.", "\n\nIf only there were a way to contain silicone within a bag or shell, then the chance of it leaking into the rest of the body would be minimized. ", "In the early '60s, Houston plastic surgeons Thomas Cronin and Frank Gerow worked with the Dow Corning Corp. to develop a rubbery silicone outer shell, which was filled with a gel-like silicone liquid. \"", "Their first implants were actually teardrop-shaped,\" says Houston plastic surgeon Thomas Biggs, who did his residency under Cronin and later became his partner. \"", "Then a New York surgeon told us that the breast is not teardrop, it's actually round. ", "So we made them round.\"", "\n\nIn 1968, Dr. Henry Jenny, a California plastic surgeon, designed the first saline implant, which was little more than an inflated water balloon. ", "But doctors and patients found saline too squishy and unnatural, preferring the softer, more breastlike feel of silicone gel. ", "The '70s and '80s saw demand for silicone implants soar, as plastic surgeons, implant manufacturers and the media promoted implants as a quick fix for low self-esteem, a safe way to attain a quality of life women might never realize if they remained forever flat-chested.", "\n\n\"Plastic surgeons co-opted the language of psychology,\" says Lithe Sebesta, co-author of The Breast Book, which will be released in May. \"They have taken words like inferiority complex and applied it to small-breasted women, even calling it a disease--micromastia--which basically means small-breasted women who have a complex about it.\" ", "In a 1982 petition before the FDA, the American Association of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons (now the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, ASPS) maintained that small breasts \"are really a disease, which in most patients results in feelings of inadequacy, lack of self-confidence...and a lack of well-being due to a lack of self-perceived femininity.\" ", "They offered a cure for this disease: \"the enlargement of the underdeveloped breast.\"", "\n\nIt would seem that feminists would rail against the implants, seeing them as an implement of male oppression, much like they did the bra and fashion trends in general. ", "And they did, for a time. ", "But with reconstructive surgery offering to make breast cancer survivors whole again, and the '60s demand for social equality giving way to the '80s demand for personal empowerment, any feminist outrage toward implants seemed muted at best, particularly since more and more women came away from their breast enlargements with an enhanced feeling of self-worth. ", "The ASPS claims that more than 90 percent of the women who undergo breast augmentation are satisfied customers. \"", "There are legitimate connections between physical image and psychological image,\" says author Sebesta. \"", "Although plastic surgeons have pushed this connection too hard.\"", "\n\nTexas women seem particularly charmed by its cosmetic benefits. ", "Not only does this state rank high in the number of cosmetic surgeries performed (along with Florida and California), but its women request larger breasts more frequently than their East Coast counterparts. \"", "For a region to be a cosmetic capital, it has to have money, because it's an elective surgery and you are paying out of pocket,\" explains California psychologist Barbara Nash, author of What Your Doctor Didn't Tell You About Plastic Surgery. \"", "The culture probably has to have a large investment in image and body appearance, and a warm climate where you can show off that appearance.\"", "\n\nIt also helps that Dallas has a deep pool of talented plastic surgeons who are adept at performing what amounts to a fairly simple procedure. ", "After the patient receives a general anesthetic, the surgeon makes an incision in one of three places: in the fold of the breast, in the armpit, around the areola. ", "To position the implant, he creates a pocket, either over the muscle separating the breast tissue from the ribs or partially behind the muscle. ", "Either way, the surgeon centers the implant behind the nipple and then inflates the implant with saline. ", "Silicone-gel implants are prefilled.", "\n\n\"You make a space, make certain there is no bleeding, insert the implant and close it up,\" says Dallas plastic surgeon Edward Melmed. \"", "It's not rocket science.\"", "\n\nBut it's not without its complications. ", "The most common is known as capsular contracture--the capsule of scar tissue that forms around the implant as the body's natural defense to the foreign object invading it. ", "In serious cases, the scarring hardens and rounds the breast, creating a grapefruit-in-the-sock effect--the fake-looking, never-at-rest Baywatch boob. ", "The scarring can also hurt like hell, lead to shell rupture, gel leakage and more operations. ", "But some plastic surgeons have suggested that it shouldn't even be labeled a complication, minimizing its sting by calling it a side effect, an expected result, a consequence. ", "Other possible consequences of augmentation include rupture from trauma to the body, infection, disfigurement, hemorrhaging and reduction in nipple sensation.", "\n\nFor nearly 30 years, marketing leaped ahead of science, and many plastic surgeons undersold or misunderstood these risks. ", "Not until the late '80s did research indicate that silicone might not be the safe substance it had been promoted to be. ", "Thousands of silicone-implanted women and their lawyers complained about autoimmune, neurological and muscular-skeletal disorders. ", "Ralph Nader's public advocacy group warned that silicone implants might cause cancer. ", "By 1990, Congress heard these complaints and decided to investigate.", "\n\nThe congressional oversight committee that had jurisdiction over the FDA, which had neither regulated nor approved silicone gel implants, learned that implant manufacturers had never tested their products on humans. \"", "It was only assumed implants were safe because the manufacturers had said they were safe,\" says Dr. Diana Zuckerman, who worked on the committee and now heads the National Center for Policy Research for Women & Families. \"", "We were given internal memos from Dow Corning that showed their own scientists believed implants leaked and had concerns about their safety.\"", "\n\nMounting public pressure was forcing the FDA to take some sort of regulatory action, though the agency seemed conflicted about what course to take. ", "Weighing the risks vs. benefits of plastic surgery was no easy matter, particularly after plastic surgeons encouraged their patients, many of them who had undergone breast reconstruction following mastectomies, to lobby the FDA on their behalf. ", "Doctors also enlisted a public relations firm to design a campaign couched in the language of the pro-choice movement, Zuckerman says. \"", "Women were told they had a right to choose for themselves. ", "But how could they make a choice when there were no studies to inform them?\"", "\n\nDow Corning contended that any link between its implants and disease was purely coincidental. ", "It held fast to this position throughout its bankruptcy reorganization, which was largely brought on by the 177,000 women who claimed otherwise. ", "Ironically, the company would be vindicated by a 1999 Institute of Medicine study, which reviewed all the research that had come before it and found no causal connection between implants and major disease.", "\n\nIn April 1992, however, the FDA finally placed the burden of safety where it belonged: on implant manufacturers. ", "Because they couldn't meet that burden, the agency banned silicone gel implants for first-time augmentation patients. ", "Women who were undergoing reoperations or breast reconstruction could use silicone gel if the surgery was part of a government-approved clinical trial. ", "Despite their silicone outer shell, saline-filled implants were not restricted, partly because it was believed that any damage caused by salt water migrating upon rupture would be insignificant.", "\n\nAfter one FDA hearing, Dr. John Tebbetts, a Dallas plastic surgeon, grabbed the national media spotlight, briefly appearing on ABC's World News Tonight. ", "While contending the FDA should not ban silicone implants because their saline substitutes do not look as natural, he added, \"You have committed patients to a breast that is far from normal, compared to a gel-filled implant.\"", "\n\nWhat he didn't say was that he had already begun his quest for an implant that would present a more natural-looking breast: the anatomic.", "\n\nIn Tebbetts' Oak Lawn medical offices, subtle suggestions are at work: the mauve and lavender walls that soothe the anxious and ease the uncertain; the sculptures and paintings of swans that hint at a transformation from ugly duckling; copies of The Best Breast, which intimate that its author is the best person to deliver the best breast.", "\n\nAnd then enters Tebbetts, who instantly diffuses this air of subtlety with his blustery, East Texas country-boy demeanor. ", "At 55, he's a likable cuss, a no-nonsense, tough-talking, opinionated man who tends to dominate the conversation. ", "His hunger to be challenged is evident from the array of photos in his inner office that show him dirt-biking and tarpon-fishing. ", "He inspires strong feelings from his colleagues, who describe him with a mix of guarded admiration and disdain.

", "In addition to designing new implants, he has developed new surgical tools and breast-augmentation procedures that minimize tissue damage and hasten recovery.

", "He is largely credited as the first plastic surgeon to publicly condemn the fashion of bigger-is-better by advising patients and colleagues that the too-large breast will ultimately sag, whether augmented or not. ", "He is a strong advocate for patient education, insisting his patients read his book before they consult with him. ", "His résumé lists more than 150 scientific publications and presentations that have published his work, though he is criticized for being overly verbose and unnecessarily complex in his writings.", "\n\nHe claims it was never his goal to build a more natural-looking breast. \"", "That's a total misconception. ", "I had been making perfectly natural breasts since 1979 [the year he entered private practice].\"", "\n\nWhen McGhan Medical Corp. approached him about designing a new implant in the early '90s, he had already been working with another implant manufacturer, researching whether implant rupture might be caused by folds and wrinkling in the implant's shell. ", "After that manufacturer went out of business, he continued his work with McGhan. \"", "Every bioengineer at an implant manufacturer told me that shell folding was one of the main reasons for shell failure,\" he says. \"", "So how do you make the shell not fold? ", "You put in more fill [either saline or silicone gel].\" ", "And the more you put in, the firmer it gets, the less chance the upper shell will fold or wrinkle when its fill decreases as the lower shell inevitably stretches and sags over time--or so surmised Tebbetts. ", "With a fuller, firmer implant, there would be less chance of leaks, rupture and reoperation, all problems that the FDA had been concerned about.", "\n\nHe experimented with round saline-filled implants, he says, but the more they were filled \"the more globular the breasts looked, like a softball.\" ", "That's when he hit upon the idea of changing the shell's shape, \"tapering the top of the shell so we could still put in enough [fill], but not have that excessive upper bulge,\" he says. \"", "And that's how we did it.\" ", "Tebbetts soft-pedals the aesthetics of his implant design, instead choosing to tout its safety features. \"", "It's not an issue of the most natural breast. ", "It's the most natural breast in conjunction with minimal shell folding.\"", "\n\nMcGhan, however, didn't see it the same way, at least not in its national ad campaign. ", "When it brought the anatomic to market in the mid-'90s, it didn't promote the implant's longer shell life or wrinkle minimization to the readers of Glamour or Vogue. ", "Instead, it introduced the Style 468 saline-filled implants as \"Perfectly Natural...an anatomic design that reflects the shape of the natural breast.\" ", "The manufacturer appeared to be playing off fears of women worried about buying a Baywatch boob, those that looked too round, high and obviously fake. \"", "So, we designed our anatomical implant to be more like a woman's breast, \"with a gentle slope and a more voluptuous, natural shape,\" one print advertisement claimed. ", "Illustrations showing grapefruit vs. teardrop shapes accompanied the copy, which hailed the Style 468 as \"revolutionary.\"", "\n\nWomen weren't the campaign's only targets. ", "Plastic surgeons were invited to participate in McGhan's \"Aesthetic Marketing Alliance\" and become one of its \"preferred surgeons.\" ", "To attain this status, a doctor was obliged to pay an ongoing fee and implant \"eight pair of Style 468\" anatomicals. ", "In exchange, the doctor would receive referrals and advertising support generated by McGhan's national ad campaign and Web site. ", "In 1998, more than 1,000 physicians joined the Aesthetic Marketing Alliance, and the campaign generated more than 100,000 plastic surgeon inquiries by prospective patients. ", "It was in every way a success, both for McGhan and Tebbetts, who acknowledges he had a \"financial arrangement\" with McGhan dating to 1993.", "\n\nMany plastic surgeons had strong ethical reservations about the marketing alliance. \"", "If it wasn't unethical, it was close to it,\" says veteran Dallas plastic surgeon Harlan Pollock, a regional spokesman for the ASPS. \"", "Physicians must use their best medical judgment when advising a patient. ", "A financial relationship with a manufacturer that requires you to use its implants might cloud that judgment.\" ", "Doug Free, the general counsel for the California Society of Plastic Surgeons, expressed similar reservations. \"", "Any form of consideration in exchange for patient referrals is unethical and illegal under California law.\" ", "The ASPS voiced its own objections, and McGhan modified the program somewhat.

", "After X-raying 14 round implant patients and 12 anatomic, he concluded that while an anatomic implant might look different outside the body, there was essentially no difference between the two once placed inside the body. ", "When a woman is standing upright, gravity causes either implant to assume a teardrop shape. ", "And in a recumbent position, Hamas claims, the round implant behaves more anatomically than the anatomic, spreading out more uniformly like a natural breast.", "\n\nIn May 1999, Hamas presented his findings during the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgeonsmeeting in Dallas and received a standing ovation, an unusual response at a medical forum. ", "Hamas believes he tapped into something that had been bothering many surgeons: the manipulation they felt by McGhan's advertising campaign. \"", "It was extremely well-crafted,\" he says. \"", "Patients would walk in with the ad in their hands and say, 'I want the natural one.' ", "Well, then, who's going to give them the unnatural one?\"", "\n\nDespite their patients' wishes, some doctors resisted using anatomic implants, convinced they were no more than a pricey marketing ploy. \"", "The body dictates the shape of the implant, not the implant the shape of the body,\" says Dr. Melmed. \"", "I could probably put a square implant in there and it would be the same.\"", "\n\nWhat seemed disingenuous about the McGhan campaign was that it appeared to lay the problem of bulging augmented breasts squarely on round implants. ", "But the globular Baywatch breast is just as likely the result of capsular contracture, a natural bodily reaction beyond the surgeon's control. ", "Dr. Tebbetts himself believes there are more than 50 factors that influence the shape of the breast after augmentation; so why all the fuss over just one of them--the shape of an implant?", "\n\nMcGhan, however, didn't take Hamas' presentation lightly. ", "In June 1999, the company sent a letter to all those doctors who attended the Dallas meeting, questioning the scientific soundness of Hamas' conclusions. ", "Undaunted, Hamas conducted a second study partly to defend his first, but that didn't stop Tebbetts from registering his own objections in a respected plastic surgery journal. ", "He accused Hamas of \"ignoring and omitting data,\" of experimenting on humans without proper guidelines or informed consent, of not using a \"qualified radiologist\" and having \"no personal clinical experience\" with anatomic saline implants.", "\n\nThe same year Hamas conducted his first study, Tebbetts co-authored and released his book The Best Breast, which handsomely illustrates and extensively details the round vs. anatomic dilemma facing patients. ", "According to its introduction, the book is aimed at \"discriminating women\" so they might base their augmentation \"decisions on facts and knowledge rather than hype and fluff.\" ", "Although it does provide valuable information--even cautions women that \"there is no single type of implant that is best for every patient\"--it often reads like a sales pitch for anatomic implants, indoctrinating patients as much as educating them. ", "What is presented as hard scientific fact--if a surgeon fills a round implant to a manufacturer's recommendation, the implant shell will fold and collapse--is based on Tebbetts' clinical opinion.", "\n\nTebbetts says he now has more than opinion on his side. ", "In three separate studies he has recently published in the Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Tebbetts followed 1,662 patients for up to seven years who had used the McGhan Style 468 and found there were extremely low complication and shell failure rates--far fewer than comparable studies published by manufacturers on round implants. \"", "The difference is huge,\" he says.", "\n\nBut Hamas finds Tebbetts' science wanting--too many unaccounted for variables and questionable research that only examines a McGhan product in which Tebbetts has a financial stake. ", "Besides, he believes the research is a distraction from the real issues of misrepresentation and false advertising. ", "The problem remains Tebbetts' book, he says, whose opinions and illustrations about naturalness amount to little more than promotional pandering for the anatomic:\n\n\"Do you want a result that looks more natural than excessively round and bulging in the upper breast?\" ", "asks the book rhetorically. \"", "Do you want an adequately filled implant with minimal risk of shell folding and risk of shell rupture?\" ", "It then tells those who have answered these and three other questions affirmatively: \"You'll almost certainly want an anatomic implant,\" which the book later claims is \"ideal for the majority of first-time augmentation patients.\" ", "Because he requires each of his patients to read the book, it's not surprising that Tebbetts has performed more \"augmentations with anatomic breast implants that any other surgeon worldwide,\" according to Tebbetts' own Web site.", "\n\nOne Dallas plastic surgeon (Hamas denies it was him) filed a complaint against the book with the ethics committee of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, claiming in essence that The Best Breast made it impossible for women to discriminate between medical fact and opinion. ", "That complaint, however, was resolved in Tebbetts' favor. \"", "Does everyone agree with what's in the book? ", "Obviously not,\" Tebbetts says. \"", "But it's been reviewed by the ethics committee for the society. ", "It's our opinion; it's our best opinion based on what we know right now.\"", "\n\nAs their controversy gained momentum, it was hard to tell where science stopped and ego started.
