Pets come in all shapes and sizes and can be furry, feathered, and anything in between.Now anyone can discover how to create realistic pet portraits in vibrant color with this delightful trace-and-color guide. Inside, six detailed templates are provided to help the beginning artist get started with a line drawing that they can color or paint in the medium of their choice. Artists can simply transfer the template line drawings to paper or canvas with the included graphite paper. Then, using the color references and tips in the book, they can add color and create their own pet portrait masterpiece! The book includes 32 pages of instruction and inspiration, providing basic information about color theory, as well as an introduction to several different color mediums - colored pencil, oil, acrylic, watercolor, pastel, and marker. The overview for each medium covers the essential tools and materials an artist may need, including what types of paper or canvas can be used and any other special materials, as well as how to use various techniques to achieve effects. With a variety of animals and settings, art enthusiasts will find everything they need to create their own lifelike portraits. Includes six removable templates featuring detailed pet artwork and four reusable sheets of graphite paper for transferring.

Interventional Oncology is a fast-growing new field, as well as an emerging specialty. Many minimally-invasive, imaging-guided procedures seem set to replace more traditional open surgical techniques of treating solid tumors in a variety of organs. The aim of this book is to describe new interventional radiological methods in a succinct and practical form. Diagnostic radiological considerations relevant to the selection and follow-up of patients are also covered. The book begins with an overview of the basic principles of current interventional techniques, including thermal ablation, high intensity focused ultrasound, and embolization. Later chapters focus on tumors of the liver, kidney, lung, and bone, placing new interventional techniques in context by referring to the surgical and oncologic methods of treating the same conditions. With an emphasis on best practices, Interventional Oncology: A Practical Guide for the Interventional Radiologist will serve as a definitive guide to practicing physicians involved in this rapidly evolving field.

A research problem that has received increased attention in recent years is extending Bayesian nonparametric methods to include dependence on covariates. Limited attention, however, has been directed to the following two aspects. First, analyzing how the performance of such extensions differs, and second, understanding which features are worthwhile in order to produce better results. This article proposes answers to those questions focusing on predictive inference and continuous covariates. Specifically, we show that 1) nonparametric models using different strategies for modeling continuous covariates can show noteworthy differences when they are being used for prediction, even though they produce otherwise similar posterior inference results, and 2) when the predictive density is a mixture, it is convenient to make the weights depend on the covariates in order to produce sensible estimators. Such claims are supported by comparing the Linear DDP (an extension of the Sethuraman representation) and the Conditional DP (which augments the nonparametric distribution to include the covariates). Unlike the Conditional DP, the weights in the predictive mixture density of the Linear DDP are not covariate-dependent. This results in poor estimators of the predictive density. Specifically, in a simulation example, the Linear DDP wrongly introduces an additional mode into the predictive density, while in an application to a pharmacokinetic study, it produces unrealistic concentration-time curves.

An imaging protocol with a multi-slice CT scanner that allows comprehensive assessment of patients with haematuria is described. This protocol allows evaluation of the kidneys, ureters and bladder in a single examination using CT. This approach should streamline the diagnostic work-up of patients with haematuria.

In this business management fable, one penguin notices something problem that could become a big problem for the whole colony, but the other penguins don''t want to listen, so he must convince and enlist the help of others to get something done.

This concise summary of the practice of periodontology provides an excellent review of the physiology of the oral cavity, the newest information on diagnosis and therapy of periodontologic diseases, and the theoretical basics. Practice-related parallel topics such as trauma, material incompatibility, emergency treatment, and antibiotic therapy are covered as well. This is an excellent guide for dentists and oral surgeons involved in the treatment of periodontal diseases. It makes an excellent companion to the legendary Rateitschak atlas.

Un aéronef convertible à rotors basculants est soumis au flottement gyroscopique, instabilité aéroélastique en vol à grande vitesse qui pénalise la conception de l''appareil. Cette étude, dont l''objectif est le développement d''une méthode d''optimisation active, s''intègre dans les programmes de recherche d''Eurocopter. Un modèle multicorps a été construit, s''inspirant du convertible européen ERICA. Les algorithmes étudiés sont un contrôleur monovariable ainsi que deux contrôleurs multivariables de type Linéaire Quadratique Gaussien et Contrôle Prédictif Généralisé. Ils agissent sur le plateau cyclique à l''aide des commandes de vol électriques. Les résultats de la stabilité aéroélastique et du mécanisme de l''instabilité sont présentés. Les contrôleurs apportent une stabilisation notable, correspondant à un gain de vitesse critique pouvant atteindre 30%. Ainsi le travail pose des bases fiables pour développer et certifier les futurs convertibles avec contrôle aéroélastique intégré.
