The study tested whether place attachment enhances the place satisfaction among visitors of the multiplex cinema in Tehran-Iran. Structural equation modeling was employed on a sample of 220 visitors. Regression models were estimated to test the relationship of place attachment and place satisfactions of visitors. Place attachment has the four dimensions of place dependence, place identity, plac...

We discuss aspects of silicon quality and value left on the table by current physical implementation and manufacturing handoff flows. These aspects include the following. (1) Proper expectations with respect to guardbanding of process, statistical design, and gaps in nascent flows. (2) How manufacturing variability should be deal with by design flows, e.g., with approaches less dogmatic than tr...

fluctuation of a tolerably constant character. This fluctuation signifies etiologically. an orderly succession of conditions causing sickness and death -which may be considered normal to the place and population, and violent departures from which may be accounted abnormal and due to exceptional circumstances. Dr. Payne has experienced two sources of difficulty in determining the ordinary mortal...

A number of authors have suggested that a conditional analysis of dispositions must take roughly the following form: Thing X is disposed to produce response R to stimulus S just in case, if X were exposed to S and surrounding circumstances were auspicious, then X would produce R. The great challenge is cashing out the relevant notion of ‘auspicious circumstances’. I give a general argument whic...

In this paper we show that in field theories with topologically stable kinks and flat directions in their potential, a so-called dynamical vacuum selection (DVS) takes place in the non-trivial, soliton sector of the theory. We explore this DVS mechanism using a specific model. For this model we show that there is only a static kink solution when very specific boundary conditions are met, very s...

Although severe pulmonary embolism is not an uncommon complication of abdominal operations, the opportunities for a close clinical study of the condition are few. Too often the medical officer arrives at the bedside when it is too late. Even those patients who do not succumb at once rarely survive a few hours. In such circumstances, emergency measures connected with treatment take the place of ...
