Image shows placement of a single front loaded primary transmit coil running across a 50MHz DDS (Direct-Digital-Synthesiser). The DDS includes full Freq-Phase modulation control for both power and data transfer. On-board circuitry also includes real time phase and magnitude monitoring of primary coil voltage and current waveforms allowing full monitoring of resulting transformer impedance and power coupling.
A single coil driver was included as a fallback option after requirements changes mandating direct wire galvanic coupling of signals into the eye via a percutaneous plug.
Advanced eye-tracking coil driver functions were subsequently removed from future designs with eye tracking then reverting to the use of mirrors and FPGA driven image segmentation ;-(

“Multiparametic Diagnostics and Theranostics of Tumors”
Fabian Kiessling, Universitätsklinikum Aachen
Abstract:
Significant advances have been achieved in elucidating molecular regulations of cancer and numerous disease-related markers were identified. Additionally, imaging technologies steadily improved and are providing detailed insight into tissues’ morphology, function and molecular regulation. However, there is still a need to identify and quantify the most relevant information and to bring it into a mechanistic context.
In the first part of my talk, I present advanced imaging strategies to characterize tumors by assessing various “hallmarks of cancer” using non-invasive imaging and to assess therapy responses. In this context, I will discuss novel computer applications to improve data processing, lesion detection and segmentation as well as radiomic image analysis. However, taking a study on hepatocellular carcinoma therapy with a multispecific tyrosine kinase inhibitor as an example, I will also show that correlative analyses do not always lead to correct conclusions on biological mechanisms and that the interconnection and impact of the observed changes need to be understood.
The second part of my talk will be dedicated to drug delivery. Here, I will show how imaging can be used to improve the preselection of patients to therapies and discuss the value of nanomedicines and active targeting. Furthermore, I will highlight the potential of ultrasound mediated theranostics to overcome biological barriers and to improve tumor perfusion.

- We clustered the participants we met according to their main occupation: small business owners, university students, high school students, artists, teachers and journalists.
- We then divided each group into 4 main zones: rejection, inability, ambivalence and embrace. You can see that the embrace zone changes size according to each group, to illustrate the groups that might be the most important to us. For example, we are more likely to find enthusiasm among artists than high school students, due to characteristics of their daily life.
- Within each zone, we listed the main patterns. For example, you can read that people who are unable to use our product are likely to be too poor or too illiterate.
- To move people from the ambivalence zone to the embrace zone, we highlighted motivators. For example, a University Student who is already satisfied by other tools will be very hesitant to use our product. However, if it is proven to be useful for specific task, they might embrace it.
Challenges: this graphic has proven to be too intense and detailed. We later refined it with a simpler segmentation and one page per cluster.

Vienna 1, The Franciscan Church
The Franciscans go back to St. Francis of Assisi and thus the 13th Century. They were founded as a mendicant orders but soon the arose the question how literally one should take the declaration of poverty. Was it allowed to make financial provision for elderly or sick brothers? Finally it came to the segmentation of the faith community, the more liberal Minoriten (Friars Minor Conventual) made their own order, while the Franciscans followed the old conventions. 1453 came the first Franciscan, John of Capistrano, to Vienna.
He founded the first Franciscan monastery in what is now 6th District. But the monks had to flee when the Turks besieged Vienna in 1529 and the monastery burned down. It took until 1589 until the city of Vienna gave them the at that time vacant monastery together with appendant church. The house, in its place now stands the monastery had already been donated in 1306 by wealthy citizens - namely for "loose women" who wanted give up their trade and convert themselves.
1476 was at the Weichenburg (hence Weihburggasse) inaugurated a church with seven altars, where formerly a "Pfarrheusl (small parsonage)" had stood for the soul welfare of the female residents. At the time of the Reformation, however, moral values in this house went downhill. 1553, the Foundation was dissolved, but it took yet until 1572 before the last resident had died. For eight years, the building was then an educational establishment for girls of poor people.
When the Franciscans now had got the property, they started in 1603 with a reconstruction of the church, which was consecrated in 1611. 1614, the foundation stone was laid for the new monastery.
The statues on the west facade are left Francis of Assisi and Anthony of Padua right. In the middle, on the pediment of the west portal of the Church stands Jerome, protector of the church. He is surrounded by two angle putti.
But let's go inside the church. Maria with the ax is the altarpiece above the high altar. The statue was carved in 1505 from lime wood and has its own story. She comes from the Green Mountain (Grünberg) in Bohemia, which was under the control the Sternberg family. Since the family in the meantime had become Protestant, it wanted to burn the statue. She were thrown into the fire - but the next day she stood unharmed again in the chapel. Now, the executioner was called who should dismember the effigy. However, even that was impossible, because the ax stuck in the shoulder of Mary and it was not possible to get it out. There it is still today. (You have to look closely, but then you see the great ax with slightly curved stem.) But that's not enough. A few years later the Madonna was lost in the gamble by a gegenreformierten (counter-reformed) Sternberg. The new owner, the Polish Baron Turnoffsky gave she in 1607 the Franciscan monastery. Exactly 100 years later, she got her current stand on the high altar.
The stone structure between altar and the statue of the Madonna also contains a crucifix, which dates from the beginning of the 17th Century. The wooden statues left and right represent the Saints Jerome respectively Francis and are typical examples of the so-called Franciscan carving school. It operated 1690-1730 and was run by lay brothers. The overall concept for the high altar dates back to the Jesuit Andrea dal Pozzo.
A special attraction is the organ by Hans Wöckherl that was already built in 1642 and today is the oldest organ in Vienna. It is, however, disappeared from the visible church, because it is behind the high altar and is only shown every Friday between 15.00 und 15.30 clock. In addition, one demans for that six euro entry...
The single-nave church has to both sides side chapels, of them I want to show two.
On the left we see the Magdalene Chapel, which was consecrated already in 1614 for the first time. 1644 and 1722, however, followed Neustiftungen (new foundings). The stucco decoration stems from 1644. The paintings in the vault are much more recent, from 1893. The altarpiece depicts the grieving Mary Magdalene under the Cross. It was created in 1725 by Carlo Innocenzo Carlone. The image above shows Veronica's handkerchief with the face of Christ. It was painted by Wolfram Koeberl and in 1974 installed. The statues beside the altar represent the Virgin Mary and John the Baptist. The two above chapels are provided with food grid, so that one could give Communion here.
An Immaculata chapel (pictured above right) is there since the existence of the church, but this was rebuilt in 1722. Previously, since 1642, there was a Michael altar here. From this period dates still the stucco decor on the ceiling. The altarpiece is by Johann Georg Schmidt, who painted it in 1721. The lateral statues depict the Saint Joachim and the mother of Mary.
Also the Capistrano Chapel, which was founded in 1723, is worth mentioning. The lateral stucco decor shows on the left side (picture) the glorification of St. John Capistrano, who, as I said, was the first Franciscan in Vienna. Right you can see him as a standard-bearer of Christian doctrine in the wars against the Turks. Both stucco images date from the time of the foundation. The altarpiece by Franz Xaver Wagenschön originated in 1761 and shows Capistrano in a scene from 1451, in Brescia when he healed a possessed man.
In the picture we see also the statue of Saint George, as he is killing the (admittedly small) dragon.
On the other side of the chapel is the Holy Florian, while Clara and Theresa stand next to the altar. Behind the altar there is a reliquary in glass from about 1720, in which we see a wax image of the Holy Hilaria. The relic shall be imbedded in the wax. Hilaria is rather unknown, but she was a martyr who was converted by Bishop Narcissus. She died in the year 304 in Augsburg, at the behest of the governor Gaius, because she did not want to renounce the Christian faith. About the nature of death, there are different opinions.
In the church there is a plaque that claims that she was burned at the grave of her daughter, while the Holy Encyclopedia states that she was enclosed in her house and this was then set on fire.
In the chapel opposite, the Chapel of the Good Shepherd, there is also a glass coffin with a relic. This is the skeleton of the Felix Puer wearing the uniform of a Roman Centurion.
As a counterpart to the pulpit, this just opposite, you will find the monument of Johann Nepomuk. We see how he flows on the water of the Vltava river after he was thrown in Prague there. He actually was called "John from Nepomuk" in Czech "ne Pomuk". The wife of Emperor Wenceslas IV is said to have chosen him as confessor. The Emperor wanted to know then what she had confessed, but Johann Nepomuk did not betray the seal of confession and was therefore thrown into the water. The Empress had then an appearance of five stars.
(We see she also in the water of the monument.) These stars indicated were one could find the body. So much for the legend.
The fact is that Johann Nepomuk was tortured by the king and thrown into the Vltava. The activating moment was a dispute over a new monastery between the emperor and the archbishop of Prague, in which John Nepomuk was trampled underfoot ...
The pulpit was built in 1726 and was executed by the Franciscan carving school. At the parapet there are wooden reliefs of Matthew, Mark and Luke. The relief of the fourth evangelist, John, is attached to the pulpit door. At the parapet you further can see statues of Capistrano and Bonaventura, while on the sounding board are sitting Anthony of Padua and Berhardin of Siena. At the top stands the freeze image of Francis of Assisi.
The pews were 1727 - 1729 by brother Johann Gottfried Hartmann built and carved.

Majin Buu was one of the final villains introduced in the Dragonball Z series, and main reason for everyone powering up again. His most famous form in this arc is that of Innocent Buu, which is the pink blob.. which also appears to be his look when he's split up into Good Buu and Kid Buu.... anyway.
Despite his childlike appearance and behavior, he's one of the most horrific beings to ever exist (at that time, of course... everyone is always the worst thing ever when they're introduced), only held back as it were by some influence of a Grand Kai that was absorbed earlier in his existence. He's basically Kirby if he went rogue.
The character is of course represented in Figuarts form.
As the Dragonball releases general scale to each other, Buu is gigantic, not quite reaching Broly size, but pretty close, and dwarfs all of the other Z fighters. Being an extremely large figure, Buu is definitely more hollow as compared to his smaller peers, most notably in the body itself. Some of this is for the better, as that is where the guts of this articulation is hidden.
It's just unfortunate the younger generation will never know the joys of beating the shit out of your friends with 10 inch rubber WWF figures.
Buu comes with 3 heads, with I believe a bonus "Good Buu" head with the upcoming Kid Buu Figuarts. No stand and relatively few hands, but he does come with his trademark chocolate bar, which apparently if he's Innocent Buu is probably someone transformed into food, or if he's Good Buu it's literally a chocolate bar as he can't absorb people anymore.
All I know is he eats no matter where he goes.
In addition to the aforementioned, you will also notice he has his trademark purple cape, slightly poseable due to the segmentation. It's not as poseable as say, the Batman ones from Play Arts, but it also doesn't look anywhere as hideous so... winning?
Colours are nice and sharp, much like on Gotenks. I don't know how things are like on other Figuarts lines, but it does seem like Bandai has gotten their act together at least on the Dragonball stuff. Of course, given its premium status, it's kind of necessary.
Articulation is pretty good too. It's not quite Storm Collectibles Zangief good, but it's on part with Broly, meaning the only real thing missing is an upper chest joint. As mentioned, hollow cavities allow for joint placements that increase his range of movement. Of course, due to his size, the actual poses Buu can hold without additional support are kind of limited though I don't exactly recall him being a super limber kind of guy. A standard figure stand won't support him, so if you want to do any mid air posing, you're going to need to find something more robust, or get creative.
While they're all memorable characters, you got to admit in a line where more than half of them seem to basically be a bipedal humanoid with two arms that share the same workout routine, it's the aliens and other seemingly random characters that stick out on your shelves. Majin Buu is no exception - I think he makes a great accent piece in your Figuarts sized collection, regardless if its Dragonball or not.
Much like with Broly, Buu is large and in charge and is a great addition to your set, but I wouldn't go in expecting him to be a posing dynamo, which is usually the case with larger figures (except for Storm Zangief), though really I feel the only point missing would be an articulation point at the chest.
(Solar Decathlon, University of Texas at Austin entry)
Set up as a competition between 20 university teams "to design, build, and operate the most attractive, effective, and energy-efficient solar-powered house," the event draws in massive crowds every two-years to the Mall. The ingenuity of the energy-efficient designs is rivaled only by the wonderful aesthetic considerations in the overall appearance of the homes. True to its European roots, the team from Germany presented a flat-roof home which obscured the solar panels in a sunken space on top. Trumping the rest of the competition and taking first place this year, the house uses a passive energy design that requires minimal energy to keep the atmosphere inside at a comfortable level.
The overall design of defined layers of the house reminds me of traditional Javanese houses that use a similar layer approach to control the temperature of the house from the heat of the tropics. By implementing a similar segmentation of space and a high ventilated roof at its core, these traditional houses maintained a comfortable constant temperature inside that could be controlled by louvered doors and windows.
More details about the winning house can be read here.

“Multiparametic Diagnostics and Theranostics of Tumors”
Fabian Kiessling, Universitätsklinikum Aachen
Abstract:
Significant advances have been achieved in elucidating molecular regulations of cancer and numerous disease-related markers were identified. Additionally, imaging technologies steadily improved and are providing detailed insight into tissues’ morphology, function and molecular regulation. However, there is still a need to identify and quantify the most relevant information and to bring it into a mechanistic context.
In the first part of my talk, I present advanced imaging strategies to characterize tumors by assessing various “hallmarks of cancer” using non-invasive imaging and to assess therapy responses. In this context, I will discuss novel computer applications to improve data processing, lesion detection and segmentation as well as radiomic image analysis. However, taking a study on hepatocellular carcinoma therapy with a multispecific tyrosine kinase inhibitor as an example, I will also show that correlative analyses do not always lead to correct conclusions on biological mechanisms and that the interconnection and impact of the observed changes need to be understood.
The second part of my talk will be dedicated to drug delivery. Here, I will show how imaging can be used to improve the preselection of patients to therapies and discuss the value of nanomedicines and active targeting. Furthermore, I will highlight the potential of ultrasound mediated theranostics to overcome biological barriers and to improve tumor perfusion.

Segmentation board game
A hands-on, interactive game that allows stakeholders to engage and empathise with their target customers by putting segments into real life situations to explore different scenarios and contexts.
Lepidochitona cinerea. Lleuen y graig gribog, lleuen fôr gribog. Druidstone Haven. Ceir hyd iddynt o dan gerrig, yn glynnu wrth y graig, maent yn effro gyda’r nos. Yn wahanol i falwod eraill, mae'r gragen gydag wyth clawr yn gorchuddio'r cefn yn debyg i deils crib tô. Dyma hil hynafol y molysgiaid - o greadur tebyg i hwn, datblygodd y molysgiaid eraill - y malwod, y cregyn deuglawr a'r octopws.
Lepidochitona cinerea. A chiton, or coat of mail shell. This species, cineraria, is known as the common grey chiton - from its species name cineraria = ashen , grey, however its colour varies... the Welsh name 'cribog' refers to the distinct ridge to the plates on the back. The Welsh name for these ancient molluscs is 'lleuen y graig' = rock louse. This is a primative mollusc, it has eight shells on its back... bivalves, gastropods and cephalopods are descended from creatures that looked like this. Higher organisms are descended from segmented worms... and you can see that segmentation clearly evident in this creature, an ancestor of the octopus.

Majin Buu was one of the final villains introduced in the Dragonball Z series, and main reason for everyone powering up again. His most famous form in this arc is that of Innocent Buu, which is the pink blob.. which also appears to be his look when he's split up into Good Buu and Kid Buu.... anyway.
Despite his childlike appearance and behavior, he's one of the most horrific beings to ever exist (at that time, of course... everyone is always the worst thing ever when they're introduced), only held back as it were by some influence of a Grand Kai that was absorbed earlier in his existence. He's basically Kirby if he went rogue.
The character is of course represented in Figuarts form.
As the Dragonball releases general scale to each other, Buu is gigantic, not quite reaching Broly size, but pretty close, and dwarfs all of the other Z fighters. Being an extremely large figure, Buu is definitely more hollow as compared to his smaller peers, most notably in the body itself. Some of this is for the better, as that is where the guts of this articulation is hidden.
It's just unfortunate the younger generation will never know the joys of beating the shit out of your friends with 10 inch rubber WWF figures.
Buu comes with 3 heads, with I believe a bonus "Good Buu" head with the upcoming Kid Buu Figuarts. No stand and relatively few hands, but he does come with his trademark chocolate bar, which apparently if he's Innocent Buu is probably someone transformed into food, or if he's Good Buu it's literally a chocolate bar as he can't absorb people anymore.
All I know is he eats no matter where he goes.
In addition to the aforementioned, you will also notice he has his trademark purple cape, slightly poseable due to the segmentation. It's not as poseable as say, the Batman ones from Play Arts, but it also doesn't look anywhere as hideous so... winning?
Colours are nice and sharp, much like on Gotenks. I don't know how things are like on other Figuarts lines, but it does seem like Bandai has gotten their act together at least on the Dragonball stuff. Of course, given its premium status, it's kind of necessary.
Articulation is pretty good too. It's not quite Storm Collectibles Zangief good, but it's on part with Broly, meaning the only real thing missing is an upper chest joint. As mentioned, hollow cavities allow for joint placements that increase his range of movement. Of course, due to his size, the actual poses Buu can hold without additional support are kind of limited though I don't exactly recall him being a super limber kind of guy. A standard figure stand won't support him, so if you want to do any mid air posing, you're going to need to find something more robust, or get creative.
While they're all memorable characters, you got to admit in a line where more than half of them seem to basically be a bipedal humanoid with two arms that share the same workout routine, it's the aliens and other seemingly random characters that stick out on your shelves. Majin Buu is no exception - I think he makes a great accent piece in your Figuarts sized collection, regardless if its Dragonball or not.
Much like with Broly, Buu is large and in charge and is a great addition to your set, but I wouldn't go in expecting him to be a posing dynamo, which is usually the case with larger figures (except for Storm Zangief), though really I feel the only point missing would be an articulation point at the chest.

On the northern California coast.
From a Wikipedia article on ice plants (Carpobrotus edulis, which are native to South Africa) & their introduction to California:
"Although the ice plant may have arrived by ship as early as the 16th century, C. edulis was actively introduced in the early 1900s to stabilize dunes and soil along railroad tracks; it was later put to use by Caltrans for ground cover along freeway embankments. Thousands of acres were planted in California until the 1970s. It easily spreads by seed (hundreds per fruit) and from segmentation (any shoot segment can produce roots). Its succulent foliage, bright magenta or yellow flowers, and resistance to some harsh coastal climatic conditions (salt) have also made it a favored garden plant. The ice plant was, for several decades, widely promoted as an ornamental plant, and it is still available at some nurseries. Ice plant foliage can turn a vibrant red to yellow in color. Despite its use as a soil stabilizer, it actually exacerbates and speeds up coastal erosion. It holds great masses of water in its leaves, and its roots are very shallow. In the rainy season, the added weight on unstable sandstone slopes and dunes increases the chances of slope collapse and landslides.
The ice plant is still abundant along highways, beaches, on military bases, and in other public and private landscapes. It spreads beyond landscape plantings and has invaded foredune, dune scrub, coastal bluff scrub, coastal prairie, and, most recently, maritime chaparral communities. In California, the ice plant is found in coastal habitats from north of Eureka, south at least as far as Rosarito in Baja California. It is intolerant of frost, and is not found far inland or at elevations greater than about 500 ft (150 m).
Flowering occurs almost year-round, beginning in February in southern California and continuing through fall in northern California, with flowers present for at least a few months in any given population."

Theaters have recently started looping advertisements before their previews during films. This new advertising technique allows companies to segment their advertisements to specific audiences. According to Media Now, "technological changes and receptivity by audiences and advertisers encourage media to engage in narrowcasting, to target smaller, more specific audience segments with more specialized content" (39). If they are looking for a younger crowd to use their products then they might place their advertisements before the beginning of teen movies, for example.
