Case description- A three-month-old male German Shepherd dog, with signs of instability to stand, ataxia and radiographic symptoms of chondrodysplasia is presented. The symptoms were developed since birth.Clinical Findings- On physical examination, the affected pup did not show any swelling, pain or other abnormality in the long bones by palpation, but he had ataxia in walking. Ocular examinati...

Willem Bilderdijk (1756–1831), Dutch writer and poet, son of an Amsterdam physician. When he was 6 years old he was struck by an accident to a foot, causing inflammation of the periosteum. Medical errors caused him to stay inside, shut off from the outside world and his peers. He devoted his childhood and youth to study, drawing and writing. He became a historian, linguist, poet and lawyer. Sou...

The Solitary Reaper is one of William Wordsworth’s representatives which portrays an Irish girl working and singing solitarily in a field. This poem fully reflects the loneliness of the poet. He uses varying wording and phrasing, the lonely image of the reaper, the expanding of the lonely music, and the way of expressing his loneliness to set the lonely atmosphere. Therefore, it is necessary to...

The Later Roman court poet and panegyrist Claudius Claudianus (ca. 370 – after 404) supplies a main source on the military-­political history of Western half Empire in 395–404, particularly account revolt North Africa’s warlord Gildo raised up spring 397 suppressed winter 398. A relatively fast defeat was one from series undoubted victories general Stilicho, commander-in-chief all expeditionary...

Because of the complexity of distributed applications, understanding their behaviour is a challenging task. Frequently, tools that provide graphical visualizations based on process-time diagrams are provided to facilitate this understanding task. While a wide variety of such tools exist, few address the complexity problem directly. In contrast, our research has focused on the problem of visuali...

We present a general-purpose code transformation system, the POET system, for the purpose of automatic code generation from high-level behavior specifications of object-oriented abstractions to low-level efficient implementations in C++ and Java. In particular, we have developed an extended finite-state-machine-based language, iFSM, which models the behavior logic together with implementation d...

We evaluate the security of the recently proposed authenticated encryption scheme POET with regard to weak keys when its universal hash functions are instantiated with finite field multiplications. We give explicit constructions for weak key classes not covered by POET’s weak key testing strategy, and demonstrate how to leverage them to obtain universal forgeries.
