Abstract:
Cardiac rhythm control devices i.e. pacemakers, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) and biventricular pacemakers are at times lifesaving treatment and prevention of arrhythmia. But, despite definite indications, many people in the developing countries cannot afford these devices due to high cost, and succumb to premature death. On the other hand, after implantation, pacemakers and ICDs are sometimes underutilized because of premature explantation due to death of the recipient, device infection, or upgradation, leaving a considerable extent of serviceable battery life unused.

AbstractIn Matt 9:10-13, the disciples of Jesus are asked why their master eats with tax-collectors and sinners. Both the question and the threefold answer are analysed in this study. Wisdom traditions prescribe Torah teachers not to engage with blatant sinners. This approach becomes contested in the first century C.E., as is clear from Pharisaic disputes on sinners and tax-collectors. In his answer, Jesus characterises himself as the divine doctor, who stirs the capacity to repentance by his sheer presence. The quote of Hosea functions as a legal justification of this strategy.

Abstract:
This contribution coins the term indefatigable worker as a lens to examine the concerted efforts by state and capital forces, since the early 20th century, to devise methods aimed to reduce mental and physical fatigue among the workforce in order to guarantee the productivity and economic health of the nation. Different interventions have targeted the worker’s body from the early 20th century factory labourer to the more fragmented workforce under neoliberal capitalism and finally to the locked-down Covid-19 Zoom participant. Interestingly, each intervention was triggered by the onset of one g

Abstract:
Abstract Cyber–physical–social systems (CPSS) with highly integrated functions of sensing, actuation, computation, and communication are becoming the mainstream consumer and commercial products. The performance of CPSS heavily relies on the information sharing between devices. Given the extensive data collection and sharing, security and privacy are of major concerns. Thus, one major challenge of designing those CPSS is how to incorporate the perception of trust in product and systems design. Recently, a trust quantification method was proposed to measure the trustworthiness of CPSS by quantit

Ocean waves are an immense, unused source of energy. Since global attention is nowadays constantly being drawn to the fact that the level of CO2 is rising, creating the so called “greenhouse effect”, and influencing further climate changes, the focus on generating electricity from renewable sources forces itself as an important area of future research. The possibility to exploit the energy potential created by sea waves indisputably exists. Various researches conducted in the field of unused energy sources prove the necessity of seriously considering this potential of sea waves. The illustrati

According to Amoah et al (2018), it is estimated that about 145,299 people have been amputated in Ghana. Yet, estimates by WHO (2010) indicates that only 5-15% percent of Ghanaians in need of assistive technology only have access to it.

 晉杜預,爲杜甫十三世祖,著《春秋經傳集解》,其《序》文特提微、婉、顯、晦之法,懲惡勸善之義。揭示叙事傳統無數法門,爲《春秋》學之一大功臣。杜甫三十歲時,曾作《祭遠祖當陽君文》,宣稱不敢忘本,不敢違仁。於是《春秋》與詩,同爲杜氏家學。杜甫流離隴蜀,所作敍事歌行,世號“詩史”,《本事詩》所謂“推見至隱,殆無遺事”者。叙事傳人之際,遂多《春秋》書法之體現。諸如屬辭比事,筆削顯義;據事直書,美惡自見;微婉顯晦,推見至隱;以小該大,因彼見此;偏載略取,舉輕明重;直斥不宜,曲筆諱飾;彼此相形、前後相絜,行屬辭比事之法;詳略、異同、重輕、忽謹,指義見乎筆削,其大者焉。杜甫於安史之亂前後所作敍事歌行,如《麗人行》、《哀江頭》、《贈花卿》、《戲作花卿歌》、《丹青引贈曹將軍霸》、《韋諷録事宅觀曹將畫馬圖歌》、《觀公孫大娘弟子舞劍器行》諸什,除轉化《春秋》書法爲詩史之外,且多寓抒情於叙事之中。正杜甫稱元結《舂陵行》,所謂“比興體制”;章學誠所稱:“必通六義比興之旨,而後可以講春王正月之書。”叙事傳統,可以兼涵抒情傳統,由杜甫詩史,“比興發於真機,美刺該夫衆體”,可見一斑。

Despite numerous critics describing him as an auteur (i.e. a film-maker who ‘does’ everything and fulfils every production role [Bordwell and Thompson 37] and/or with a signature “world-view” detectable in his/her work [Caughie 10]), Rolf de Heer appears to have declined primary authorship of Dance Me to My Song (1997), his seventh in an oeuvre of twelve feature films. Indeed, the opening credits do not mention his name at all: it is only with the closing credits that the audience learns de Heer has directed the film.

Playing in childhood we are presented with foundational puzzles. Many of these arise directly from our negotiations with the laws of physics; others arise from the deliberate activities of our elders, teachers and siblings. As we sit on our grandmother’s knee we are presented with a range of playful and deceptive games. Something as simple as a loop of wool can initiate this play: now it is a straight thread; now it is a loop.

Listening to a podcast is weird enough; talking about listening to a podcast makes other people feel uncomfortable. This is why no one listens to podcasts while doing nothing else.

Contemporary culinary discourse in Australia has been dominated by the notion that migration and the increased mobility of Australians is responsible for filling a culinary void, as though, because we have had no peasantry we have no affinity with either the land or its produce. This argument serves to alienate Australians of British descent and its validity is open to questioning. It's an argument in urgent need of debate because cuisine stands out as the signifier of a 'multicultural' nation.

Abstract:
In the middle of the nineteenth century, Marcus Clarke famously described the Australian outback as displaying a “Weird Melancholy” (qtd. in Gelder 116). The strange sights, sounds, and experiences of Australia’s rural locations made them ripe for the development of the European genre of the Gothic in a new location, a mutation which has continued over the past two centuries. But what does it mean for Australia’s Gothic landscapes to be associated with the affective qualities of the melancholy? And more particularly, how and why does this Gothic effect (and affect) appear in the most accessibl
