Environmental impact of municipal solid waste landfills in semi-arid climates - case study: Jordan

Landfilling is the most commonly used method for solid waste disposal in Jordan. It is an important source of pollution, which can be displayed through analysis of data for climatic conditions, hydrology and geology of the country. The migration of gas and leachate from the landfill body into the surrounding environment present a serious environmental concern, which include groundwater pollution,

The Mathematics of Internet Search Engines

This article presents a survey of techniques for ranking results in search engines, with emphasis on link-based ranking methods and the PageRank algorithm. The problem of selecting, in relation to a user search query, the most relevant documents from an unstructured source such as the WWW is discussed in detail. The need for extending classical information retrieval techniques such as boolean sear

Multimodal management of colorectal liver metastases and the effect on regeneration and outcome after liver resection.

Abstract Management of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) has dramatically changed during the last decade and has now become more multimodal and aggressive, including the use of downstaging chemotherapy, portal vein embolization to increase the function of the liver remnant or both in combination. Radiofrequency ablation is also an option in CRLM, potentially combined with surgical resection. Resu

Genom lagen blir vi alla lika/olika

I Louis Althussers klassiska text "Ideologi och ideologiska statsapparater" är det lagens direkta tilltal som får exemplifiera begreppet interpellation. Genom lagen (och dess representanter i vardagen) görs vi inte bara lika, till medborgare. Vi interpelleras även till en mängd andra, särskiljande identiteter. För att kunna åtnjuta lagens skydd måste våra konkreta livsöden kodas om till abstrakta

Meniscal pathology on MRI increases the risk for both incident and enlarging subchondral bone marrow lesions of the knee: the MOST Study.

OBJECTIVES: /st> To investigate the association between meniscal pathology and incident or enlarging bone marrow lesions (BML) in knee osteoarthritis. METHODS: /st> The authors studied subjects from the Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study aged 50-79 years either with knee osteoarthritis or at high risk of the disease. Baseline and 30-months magnetic resonance images of knees (n=1344) were scored for

The Challenges of Provisioning Real-Time Services in Wireless Internet

The issues involved in supporting real-time wireless Internet services go beyond the problem of forwarding packets to the correct destination of a mobile host. These issues include handover latency, availability of network resources after moving, and a proper charging and accounting infrastructure. Through a survey of current research in these areas, we discuss various concerns of integrating mobi

Repetition and severity of suicide attempts across the life cycle: a comparison by age group between suicide victims and controls with severe depression.

BACKGROUND: Suicide attempts have been shown to be less common in older age groups, with repeated attempts generally being more common in younger age groups and severe attempts in older age groups. Consistently, most studies have shown an increased suicide risk after attempts in older age. However, little is known about the predictive value of age on repeated and severe suicide attempts for accomp

A fixation dependent decision model of charitable choice

Building on previous work showing that eye gaze plays a role during moral decision-making and that the underlying mechanisms might be characterised as a fixation dependent drift-diffusion process, donation decisions between charitable organisations were studied. Models were fit with full, no or partial fixation dependence. Results indicate the model with partial fixation dependence provided the be

Muscle Cooling and Performance: A Review

Objectives: Skeletal muscle performance is determined by muscle temperature. This paperpresents a review of the research literature to contribute to a better understanding of thephysiological mechanisms of muscle fatigue and performance in cold exposure and in repetitiveor sustained physical exertion in terms of isometric maximal force production,electromyographic activities, and gait ground react
