A 65-year-old man presented with a hyperplastic anomalous anterior choroidal artery (AChA) associated with a ruptured internal carotid artery aneurysm at the origin of a perforating artery manifesting as sudden onset of headache and vomiting. The aneurysm was too small for endovascular embolization, so we performed open surgery via the left pterional approach. Aneurysm clipping with preservatio...

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is characterized by frequent loss of PTCH1, leading to constitutive activation of the Hedgehog pathway. Although the requirement for Hedgehog in BCC is well established, the identity of disease-initiating cells and the compartments in which they reside remain controversial. By using several inducible Cre drivers to delete Ptch1 in different cell compartments in mice, ...

In exhumed orogens, refractory mafic rocks have the potential to preserve a record of petrogenesis and high-pressure (HP) metamorphism that is commonly obliterated in quartzofeldspathic owing re-equilibration at high-temperature, low-pressure (LP–HT) conditions. Montagne Noire (France) migmatite dome, located foreland Variscan orogen, eclogite exposed both core margin dome. this study, we combi...

This article describes a process for constructing a real-world 1 m-diameter icosahedral dome frame with equipment mounting points at the vertices. Such frames, called Light Stage domes, are important tools for computer graphics and vision measurements and relighting applications. Typical domes have 2 m diameter and are constructed from bolted steel parts. The new half-size dome is inexpensive, ...

It also includes sensitivity estimates for proposed Antarctic telescopes, as well as the parameter space such telescopes might cover if used for galaxy number count studies in the thermal IR.

Using a high-resolution ocean general circulation model forced by NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data, the interannual variability of the Guinea Dome is studied from a new viewpoint of its possible link with the Atlantic Meridional Mode (AMM), which is related to the meridional migration of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). The dome develops off Dakar seasonally from late spring to late fall owi...

In this article we extend the definition of wavelet variance to wavelet packets. We also adapt to wavelet packets an iterated cumulative sum of squares algorithm for the location of variance change points. Wavelet packets have greater decorrelation properties than standard wavelets in that they induce a finer partitioning of the frequency domain of the process generating the data. This allows o...

The Sangiran dome is the primary stratigraphic window for the Plio-Pleistocene deposits of the Solo basin of Central Jawa. The dome has yielded nearly 80 Homo erectus fossils, around 50 of which have known findspots. With a hornblende (40)Ar/(39)Ar plateau age of 1.66 +/- 0.04 mega-annum (Ma) reportedly associated with two fossils [Swisher, C.C., III, Curtis, G. H., Jacob, T., Getty, A. G., Sup...
