I defend against a certain line of attack the view that the conscious contents of color experiences are exhausted by, or at least matched by, the concepts brought to bear in experience by the perceiver. The line of attack is an allegedly empirical argument against conceptualism-the Diachronic Indistinguishability Argument (DIA)-based on color pairs the members of which are too similar to be dis...

The one-year survival of regenerated cartilage on a large articular surface is presented using the McDowell in vivo model. The model provides a mechanically shielded environment in which regenerated cartilage can be protected from intra-articular stresses while normal joint motion is maintained. New tissue was allowed to grow from bleeding subchondral bone for 12 weeks at which time the origina...

Five years ago I had the privilege of writing an editorial for this Journal presenting the state-of-theart in robotics. When Nathan Zasler, the Editor-inChief of Neurorehabilitation, asked me to wear the same “hat” again 5 years later, I was eager to include many of the same 2012 issue collaborators to allow the readership to compare “apples-to-apples” and to fully appreciate the march of progr...

Globally, forests store ∼45% of carbon sequestered terrestrially, contribute more to the terrestrial sink per area than any other land cover type, and assimilate an important portion of anthropogenic emissions (Bonan, 2008). Forests exert strong biophysical control on climate via surface energy balance (Bonan, 2008; Rotenberg and Yakir, 2010; Houspanossian et al., 2013), and the hydrological cy...

Surgical treatment for tendon injuries can be done using several repair techniques, but they always involve placement of suture material. The arrangement of the suture needs to maintain the apposition of the tendon stumps, preferably under conditions of movement. During the healing process, the suture thread should cause minimal tissue reaction and should have sufficient resistance to traction ...

The Kuhkenah Network (K-Net) provides information and communication technologies (ICTs), telecommunication infrastructure and application support in First Nation communities across a vast, remote region of north-western Ontario as well as in other remote regions in Canada. This private telecommunications network supports the development of online applications that combine video, voice and data ...
