We present the first 86 GHz VLBI observations of the radio galaxy 3C 120, together with contemporaneous 43 and 22 GHz polarimetric VLBA observations. The very high angular resolution obtained at 86 GHz provides an upper limit to the size of the core of 54 mas (0.025 h pc). This represents a direct determination of the base of the jet that is independent of variability arguments (which depend on...

On June 14, 1999, a 71-yr-old man was hospitalized with a 1-week history of exertional shortness of breath, foot swelling, and feeling poorly. In 1982, he was hospitalized with congestive heart failure and atrial fibrillation, attributed to myocarditis. In 1985, atrial fibrillation recurred and responded to chronic quinidine therapy. In early 1996, quinidine was stopped, followed by paroxysmal ...

Study Design Adult human osteologic specimens were assessed for spondylolytic defects and characterized. Objectives To characterize and determine the prevalence of spondylolytic defects in an osteological collection. Methods Lumbar vertebrae from the Hamann-Todd Osteological Collection at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History were examined. Digital images of specimens with L5 isthmic spondylo...

We present data concerning the factorization of the 12O-digit number RSA-120, which we factored on July 9,1993, using the quadratic sieve method. The factorization took approximately 825 MIPS years and was completed within three months real time. At the time of writing RSA-120 is the largest integer ever factored by a general purpose factoring algorithm. We also present some conservative extrap...

Laparoscopic nephrectomy for both benign and malignant diseases of kidney is increasingly being performed. We report our experience with the first 120 consecutive laparoscopic nephrectomy performed in our hospital. It is the retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained database of 4 years period. The parameters examined included age, gender, indications, operative time, blood loss, intr...

ion/generalization: thinking at high level, e.g. ability to view two different systems as being the same representation: modeling the ideas and entities that are being dealt with, e.g. shapes as strings algorithm: finding ways and methods to ahieve what is needed (this is not always possible) program: representation or encoding of an algorithm, usually machine dependent, e.g. the same addition ...

Empirical studies on coordination of economic activities focused on the two polar cases of governance mode, namely vertical integration and market exchanges. Whether firms should be vertically integrated or lever market exchanges in the face of change is, however, debated. Two positions have emerged. Some scholars argue that the vertically integrated firm is the appropriate mode of coordination...

Using 180 RFID tags to track and plot locations over time, guests to an event at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) collectively constructed a public visualization of the individual and group activities by building a history of movement throughout the space over 120 minutes. The projected histogram builds over time, revealing crowd intelligence, patterns of group distribution, zone...
