I present an overview of the potential impact on health care providers due to blanket federal spending cuts (the Sequester) triggered by the Budget Control Act of 2011, highlighting specific areas of impact to both academic and private practice physicians. The aim is to provide some clarity and context to the health care component of the Sequester and, consequently, defuse some of the hype and ...

Current and historical trends of restraint and timeout use, particularly in school environments, were examined through a review of relevant literature. The use of these techniques has changed over time, and resulting injuries have increased the public’s awareness of their dangers. While some believe that these techniques provide a therapeutic benefit to individuals or are necessary to defuse cr...

Many studies conclude that the rise in global food prices due to higher demand from the development of biofuels, climate anomalies, and increased of oil prices. Not only the food commodity index rose more than 60 percent, nonfood commodity price index also rose over 60 percent and crude oil price index has increased even further above 60 percent. The purpose of this study is to analyze the impa...

In this work, we present a methodology for fusing high frequency and low frequency radar images. The goal of this system is to nd the strong surface clutter which is common to high and low frequency radar images and to subtract (defuse) this common component from the low frequency image to extract sub-surface information.

The MR perfusion diffusion (PI/DWI) mismatch concept for the selection of patients for intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) was introduced with several smaller case series in the late 1990s and early 2000s,1 followed by larger series by many international groups over the last 8 years. A potentially salvageable penumbra was operationally defined as a PI/ DWI-(volume) mismatch where PI indicates the hy...

Intense crises of crustal stress appear to cross large regions, and to precede by several months the eventual occurrence of some strong earthquake within them. The phenomenon is not linear, and the stress control reflects some wide scale-size rather than local effects. The stress propagation through the crust can be effectively monitored by means of acoustic emission (AE) techniques (ultrasound...
