The association between meningioma and hyperostosis of adjacent calvarium is well established. However, the cause of hyperostosis is still not certain. Various authors in the past have tried to explain this phenomenon by preceding trauma or by bone irritation by the tumor without bone invasion, while some believe it to be because of stimulation of osteoblasts in normal bone by factors secreted ...

Most education tracts in Industrial Technology prepare students with traditional content relevant to industry. Learning these skills is critical to a student’s ability to function in any industrial field and these skills have always dominated industrial education. Within recent years, however, new computer technology is rapidly changing the face of industry. This comes in many forms, one of whi...

• Planning the coordinated motion of a group of agents who wish to move to a specified location amidst many obstacles • Planning the motion of an articulated skeletal model subject to constraints, such as maintaining hand contact with a door handle or avoiding collisions while passing through through a narrow passageway • Planning the motion of a character while navigating through a dense crowd...

Vegetation structure on the east flank of Mount Pinatubo was investigated to determine the inventory of species at 15 y post-eruption, then to ascertain environmental variables that have influenced the early patterns of primary succession. Unconstrained and constrained ordination methods were used to determine the influence of spatial, elevation, and substrate patterns on vegetation. Vegetation...

The ascent of Mount Everest (altitude 8,848 m) by two climbers without supplementary oxygen in 1978 was a feat that astonished many physiologists; indeed, measurements of maximal oxygen uptake at lower altitudes suggested that it would be impossible. Data obtained in 1981 at extreme altitudes, including the summit itself, showed that man can tolerate the extreme hypoxia only by an enormous incr...
