PADHYAY, M. B. \/ Case 1.?Diptheritic Croup. I was called in haste to see a child, aged 4 years, who was suffering from great difficulty of breathing. The previous history of the case is as follows. He had enjoyed tolerable health. The day before I saw him was cold and cloudy, and he had taken a bath in cold water, and had been exposed to the cold air. In the evening he was rather indisposed ; ...

Juice appearance is important to consumers, so digital juice with a slider that varies a production parameter or changes juice content is useful. It is however challenging to render juice with scattering particles quickly and accurately. As a case study, we create an appearance model that provides the optical properties needed for rendering of unfiltered apple juice. This is a scattering medium...

A dual frequency ground-based radiometer operating in the 1 to 1.4 cm wavelength range can provide continuous measurements of integrated water vapor and cloud liquid water. Using climatological data, the accuracy of the vapor and liquid determinations is estimated as a function of cloud amount. Limiting factors in the water determination are uncertainties in water vapor absorption coefficients ...

One of the biologically most important parameters of the cloudy sky is the proportion P of the celestial polarization pattern available for use in animal navigation. We evaluated this parameter by measuring the polarization patterns of clear and cloudy skies using 180 degrees (full-sky) imaging polarimetry in the red (650 nm), green (550 nm) and blue (450 nm) ranges of the spectrum under clear ...

Modelling of Extreme Scattering Events suggests that the Galaxy’s dark matter is an undetected population of cold, AU-sized, planetary-mass gas clouds. None of the direct observational constraints on this picture – thermal/non-thermal emission, extinction and lensing – are problematic. The theoretical situation is less comfortable, but still satisfactory. Galactic clouds can survive in their cu...

Peritoneal fluid eosinophilia can be caused by many factors. It has been noted in helminthic infection or allergic diseases and can occur especially at the initiation of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). We show the case of a 53-year-old woman undergoing CAPD who was initially treated for bacterial peritonitis with antibiotics. Finally, she revealed an eosinophilic peritonitis m...

During the past few years, cloud computing has become a key IT buzzword. Although the definition of cloud computing is still “cloudy”, the trade press and bloggers label many vendors as cloud computing vendors, and report on their services and issues. Cloud computing is in its infancy in terms of market adoption. However, it is a key IT megatrend that will take root. This article reviews its de...
