Discussing the first two options, especially the last notion will be emphasized. To tackle these questions, this article will discuss and analyze the mentioned games. It will make use of different definitions of the term simulation from the field of game studies as well as from natural and social sciences such as Frasca , , Juul , Bogost , Begy and Hartmann Furthermore, it will apply a notion of metaphor derived from the cognitive linguistic metaphor theory by George Lakoff and Mark Johnson , which considers the human ability of metaphorical reasoning as a fundamental structure of thought and experience which results from our bodily being in the world.
In doing so the article will in addition discuss earlier explicit approaches on metaphor in abstract and non-abstract computer games as there are Madsen and Johansen , Rusch Begy and specifically on love metaphors in games like Rusch and Weise However, it will criticize especially earlier approaches by Rusch and Begy who consider the games to discuss not as metaphors but for instance as simulations of love relationships only.
It will become apparent that especially metaphors which conceptualize love in a spatial manner are appropriate to describe the game states of the given games and make their theme comprehensible. Jefferson, North Carolina Publisher: Jul 1, Publication Name: This article discusses the metaphor-simulation paradox in the study of computer games. It is derived from three observations. Firstly, often when authors use the concept of metaphor with regard to games they use it in conceptual and Firstly, often when authors use the concept of metaphor with regard to games they use it in conceptual and textual vicinity to the concept of simulation.
Secondly, the concept of metaphor is often applied to signify seemingly abstract games in opposition to mimetic simulations. Both observations can be made within an artgame discourse of the study of computer games as well as within the more general discourse of the study of computer games. Thirdly, however, the definitions for simulation as well as for metaphor are strikingly similar which culminates in the metaphor-simulation paradox i. In an attempt to reconcile both notions with regard to computer games this article will make three suggestions.
Observing that simulations are often called metaphors with regard to their degree of reduction or abstraction the first suggestion argues that simulations are essentially synecdochic and hence metaphoric when following a broad notion of metaphor. Based on the assumption that simulation is not a matter of similarity the second suggestion proposes to distinguish between a first order simulation and a second order simulation which can then be considered metaphoric.
As a third and final suggestion the author offers to consider simulation and metaphor as related via the notion of the model. Simulations are based on models and metaphors provide models such that one can speak of metaphor based simulations. Dec Publication Name: Play, metaphor and representation — a love triangle or une liaison dangereuse? This paper investigates in which way classical theories of game and play like the approaches by Huizinga, Caillois, Fink, Bateson, Gombrich, Walton have been related to metaphor by the authors themselves or by other authors.
Observations in the mentioned literature suggest that the notions metaphor, representation and play as well as instances of each are being used to explain each other so that they enter a circular relationship. This paper discusses the relationship of these terms. As a baseline for its argument it assumes that all three phenomena play, metaphors and representation are being conceptualized as figures which can be described as the unity of the difference, a concept stemming from George Spencer-Brown's Laws of Form which became fundamental among others for Niklas Luhmann's system theory as laid out in Social Systems.
May Publication Name: Game innovation through conceptual blending more. University of Tampere Publication Date: Games and Metaphor — A critical analysis of the metaphor discourse in game studies more. This doctoral dissertation critically investigates how the concept of metaphor is used with regard to games in game studies. The goal is to provide the field with a self-understanding of its metaphor discourse which has not been The goal is to provide the field with a self-understanding of its metaphor discourse which has not been researched so far.
The thesis departs from the observation that the notion of metaphor has been present in the discourse of game studies since it emerged as an academic field and focuses on questions such as: What are the motivations and effects of calling games metaphors in the game studies discourse?
Which problems arise from that with regard to other established concepts in game studies such as simulation and procedural rhetoric? How do concepts and insights of contemporary metaphor theory affect the applicability of the notion of metaphor with regard to games? Drawing on concepts from metaphor theory in particular the cognitive linguistic view on metaphor , play and game theory, cultural theory, semiotics, linguistics, philosophy, and game studies it investigates the metaphor discourse of game studies in the fashion of a meta-study.
The main part of this thesis is devoted to three particular problems which have been derived from observations in the overview of the current use of the notion of metaphor in game studies. Firstly, this thesis investigates is the conceptual relationship between the notions of metaphor, representation, and play.
It therefore accounts for observations such that all three notions are present in non-computer game and play theory, theory of representation and art which all influenced game studies and argues for an equiprimordial relation between these three concepts. Secondly, this thesis deals with what is termed the metaphor-simulation dilemma which accounts for the observation that in game studies the notion of metaphor is very often used in close conceptual proximity with the concept of simulation to the extent that they become conceptually indistinguishable.
The two notions are reconciled through the notion of the model and a case study will demonstrate that it is possible to think of simulations as based on metaphorically structured models. Thirdly, thesis deals with the observation that the concept of metaphor is referred to in game studies in particular when games are interpreted in terms of some existential topic. Usually addressed from the perspective of procedural game rhetoric games are called metaphors for struggle, life, death, love.
On the basis of a criticism of procedural rhetoric this thesis will suggest a distinction between a textual hermeneutic and an existential hermeneutic of games in which the latter is primary. It suggests furthermore that metaphoric interpretation of games is usually a sort of text interpretation. This supports the argument of a general de-metaphorization of alleged metaphoric computer games.

Montesquieu's division of power theory is still widely regarded as an oracle of constitutional politics although it has often been an object of misinterpretation. Yet even if the concept is understood correctly, it appears doubtful whether it still chimes with the times years after the master thinker's death. It is very likely that today's problems would prompt him to revise his division of power theory. Weshalb die Evaluation der Exzellenzinitiative gegen deren Fortsetzung spricht.

Magnetic resonance imaging MRI of the lungs is becoming increasingly appreciated as a third diagnostic imaging modality besides chest x-ray and computed tomography CT. Its value is well acknowledged for pediatric patients or for scientific use particularly when radiation exposure should be strictly avoided. However, the diagnosis of interstitial lung disease is the biggest challenge of all indications. The objective of this article is a summary of the current state of the art for diagnostic MRI of interstitial lung diseases.
This article reflects the results of a current search of the literature and discusses them against the background of the authors own experience with lung MRI. Due to its lower spatial resolution and a higher susceptibility to artefacts MRI does not achieve the sensitivity of CT for the detection of small details for pattern recognition e.
Moreover, it could be shown that MRI has the capability to add clinically valuable information on regional lung function e. In its present state MRI can be used for comprehensive cardiopulmonary imaging in patients with sarcoidosis or for follow-up of lung fibrosis after initial correlation with CT. Far more indications are expected when the capabilities of MRI for the assessment of regional lung function and activity of inflammation can be transferred into robust protocols for clinical use.

A sustainable supply of future generations with energy is not possible on the basis of fossil and nuclear energy sources. With the measures and technologies used, energy transition offers the opportunity to gradually reduce the use of these energy sources and to convert the energy supply system to the use of renewable energies. This chapter has shown that the departure from the existing system can contribute to a significant improvement in the health of the population.
However, it is important parallel to the nationwide implementation of measures and technologies of the energy transition to ensure a continuous monitoring of possible health effects in order to be able to respond to potential risks at an early stage and to take adequate measures to reduce them.

What is good radiation protection? Radiation protection is based on the ICRP-System with its pillars justification, limitation and optimization. From this radiation protection should be the same irrespective of the application of radiation. But radiation protection in the nuclear industry is much different from the use of radiation sources or X-ray units.
This is by far not due to the different technologies. It originates from the different interpretation of the system. For one person good radiation protection would mean to have no radiation exposures, to avoid radiation at all as best option and to use it only if there are no alternatives. For another person the best radiation protection would be the one which does not produce much efforts and costs. So what is reasonable? In reality the first interpretation prevails, at least in Germany. A change is needed. If we continue to exercise radiation protection as we do it today the beneficial application of radiation will be restricted unduly and might become impossible at all.
A stronger orientation towards the naturally occurring radiation would help instead to regulate natural radiation in the same way as it is done for artificial radiation. The system of ICRP has to be changed fundamentally. Lack of cortical endoplasmic reticulum protein Ist 2 alters sodium accumulation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells. Component unavailability versus inservice test IST interval: Evaluations of component aging effects with applications to check valves. Methods are presented for calculating component unavailabilities when inservice test IST intervals are changed and when component aging is explicitly included.
The methods extend usual approaches for calculating unavailability and risk effects of changing IST intervals which utilize Probabilistic Risk Assessment PRA methods that do not explicitly include component aging. Different IST characteristics are handled including ISTs which are followed by corrective maintenances which completely renew or partially renew the component. ISTs which are not followed by maintenance activities needed to renew the component are also handled. Any downtime associated with IST , including the test downtime and the following maintenance downtime, is included in the unavailability evaluations.
A range of component aging behaviors is studied including both linear and nonlinear aging behaviors. Based upon evaluations completed to date, pooled failure data on check valves show relatively small aging e. However, data from some plant systems could be evidence for larger aging rates occurring in time periods less than 5 years. The methods are utilized in this report to carry out a range of sensitivity evaluations to evaluate aging effects for different possible applications.
Based on the sensitivity evaluations, summary tables are constructed showing how optimal IST interval ranges for check valves can vary relative to different aging behaviors which might exist. The evaluations are also used to identify IST intervals for check valves which are robust to component aging effects. General insights on aging effects are also extracted.
These sensitivity studies and extracted results provide useful information which can be supplemented or be updated with plant specific information. The models and results can also be input to PRAs to determine associated risk implications.

Climate sensibility and stability of coastal dunes.
Final report; Klimasensibilitaet und Stabiltaet nicht regenerierbarer Oekosysteme: Coastal dunes have an important function as unique habitats for plants and animals as well as natural barriers against storm tides. Thus, they are of special value for nature conservation and coastal defence issues. Facing their potential endangering due to accelerated climate change profound knowledge of stabilty of coastal dunes is essential. In this context the presented study deals with the impact of climate change on biogenic sand stabilization in coastal dunes, which have to be conceived as an ecosystemic process.
Questions of climate affected reactions of organism groups involved in this process plants, soil microflora, soil fauna and alterations in soil structure were followed up. Within the scope of a 2-years-lasting field experiment conducted on the Eastfrisian Island Norderney the microclimate near the soil surface was modified by gauze covering, which was set up on field plots.
Angesichts ihrer potentiellen Gefaehrdung durch einen beschleunigten Klimawandel ist ein fundierter Kenntnisstand zur Stabilitaet von Kuestenduenen von elementarem Interesse. Vor diesem Hintergrund befasst sich die vorliegende Studie mit dem Einfluss von Klimaaenderungen auf die biogene Sandstabilisierung in Kuestenduenen, die aufgrund des bestehenden organismischen Beziehungsgeflechtes als oekosystemarer Prozess aufzufassen ist. Dabei wurden Fragen nach klimaabhaengigen Reaktionen der an diesem Prozess beteiligten Organismengruppen Pflanzen, Bodenmikroflora, Bodenfauna und Veraenderungen des Bodengefueges bearbeitet.

Although data from three runs were provided to ANL, only two of the data sets were analyzed and described in this report. The common feature of these tests is the power-neutral operation of the turbine-compressor shaft, where no external power through the alternator was provided during the tests.
Instead, the shaft speed was allowed to change dictated by the power balance between the turbine, the compressor, and the power losses in the shaft. The new test data turned out to be important for code validation for several reasons. First, the power-neutral operation of the shaft allows validation of the shaft dynamics equations in asynchronous mode, when the shaft is disconnected from the grid.
Second, the shaft speed control with the compressor recirculation CR valve not only allows for testing the code control logic itself, but it also serves as a good test for validation of both the compressor surge control and the turbine bypass control actions, since the effect of the CR action on the loop conditions is similar for both of these controls. Third, the varying compressor-inlet temperature change test allows validation of the transient response of the precooler, a shell-and-tube heat exchanger.
The first transient simulation of the compressor-inlet temperature variation Test showed a much slower calculated response of the precooler in the calculations than the test data. Further investigation revealed an error in calculating the heat exchanger tube mass for the PDC dynamic equations that resulted in a slower change in the tube wall temperature than measured. The transient calculations for both tests were done in two steps.

The increasing volume of data describing human disease processes and the growing complexity of understanding, managing, and sharing such data presents a huge challenge for clinicians and medical researchers. This paper presents the neur IST system, which provides an infrastructure for biomedical research while aiding clinical care, by bringing together heterogeneous data and complex processing and computing services.
Although neur IST targets the investigation and treatment of cerebral aneurysms, the system's architecture is generic enough that it could be adapted to the treatment of other diseases. Innovations in neur IST include confining the patient data pertaining to aneurysms inside a single environment that offers clinicians the tools to analyze and interpret patient data and make use of knowledge-based guidance in planning their treatment.
Medical researchers gain access to a critical mass of aneurysm related data due to the system's ability to federate distributed information sources. A semantically mediated grid infrastructure ensures that both clinicians and researchers are able to seamlessly access and work on data that is distributed across multiple sites in a secure way in addition to providing computing resources on demand for performing computationally intensive simulations for treatment planning and research.

Alle Analgen haben Waermeverteilnetze. Feeder break accident is regarded as one of the design basis accident in CANDU reactor which results in a fuel failure. For a particular range of inlet feeder break sizes, the flow in the channel is reduced sufficiently that the fuel and fuel channel integrity can be significantly affected to have damage in the affected channel, while the remainder of the core remains adequately cooled. The flow in the downstream channel can be more or less stagnated due to a balance between pressure at the break on the upstream side and the reverse driving pressure between the break and the downstream end.
In the extreme, this can lead to rapid fuel heatup and fuel damage and failure of the fuel channel similar to that associated with a severe channel flow blockage. Such an inlet feeder break scenario is called a stagnation break. In this report, the fuel analysis methodology and the assessment results of fission product inventory and release during the stagnation feeder break are described for conservatively assumed limiting channel.
The accident was assumed to be occurred in the refurbished Wolsong unit 1 and the latest safety codes were used in the analysis. The whole analysis process was carried out by a script file which was programmed by Perl language. The perl script file was programmed to make all ELESTRES input files for each bundle and each ring based on the given power-burnup history and thermal-hydraulic conditions of the limiting channel and to perform the fuel analysis automatically. The fission product release during the transient period of stagnation feeder break was evaluated by applying Gehl model.
The amounts of each isotope's release are conservatively evaluated for additional 2 seconds after channel failure.

Klinik und Poliklinik fuer Frauenheilkunde und Geburtshilfe. MRI-guided interventional maneuvers in the breast, when closed MRi scanners are employed are relatively complex and time consuming.
The purpose of our investigations was to develop a special device for the localization and biopsy of breast lesions using an open low-field MRI Scanner Magnetom Open, Siemens, Erlangen, Germany permitting free access to the patient. Due to its particular material and construction characteristics, a newly developed device for localization and biopsy of breast lesions is appropriate to remain within the magnetic field during the examination without degrading image quality.
We performed tests in a phantom and 31 investigations in patients including 26 wire-localizations and 5 biopsies. The interventional maneuvers in the phantom could be performed very precisely. In all phantom studies, the needle 14G coaxial biopsy cannula, Bard was positioned close to the simulated lesion. In 25 out of 26 patients the needle was positioned within a distance less than 5 mm from the lesion. When using the 14G coaxial biopsy cannula Bard, Karlsruhe, Germany the needle tip was found adjacent next to the lesion in all 12 cases 7 wire-localizations, 5 biopsies. Our results indicate that our device allows very precise preoperative localization of breast lesions within the Magnetom Open.
Es wurde eine Lokalisations- und Biopsieeinrichtung entwickelt, die aufgrund ihrer Bauart waehrend der Intervention im Magnetfeld des MRT-Geraetes verbleiben kann und die Bildgebung nicht nachteilig. Is tamoxifen associated with an increased risk for thromboembolic complications in patients undergoing microvascular breast reconstruction?

Unter Tamoxifeneinnahme kam es in einem Fall zu einer Minorkomplikation, und in einem anderen Fall zu einem thrombembolisch bedingten Lappenverlust. Insgesamt kam es postoperativ zu einem thrombembolischen Ereignis in Form einer Lungenembolie ohne Assoziation zur Tamoxifen-Therapie.
Die Anzahl thrombembolischer Ereignisse stellten sich mit und ohne. The work of Zakharov and Manakov contains important ideas such as triangular factorizations and the positivity of the scattering operators. The work of Fokas and Ablowitz includes the lump solutions into the inverse scattering scheme. The work of Boiti, Leon and Pempinelli derives systematically the relations among different scattering operators. The author summarizes this work and other work on the inverse scattering transform for the KPI equation.

Im Original lautet die Aussage: Montessori All Day, All Year. Introducing real community into the Children's House goes back to the roots of Montessori education through all -day Montessori. The all -day environment is a house where children live with a "developmental room" of Montessori materials including a living room, kitchen, dining area, bedroom, bathroom, greeting rooms, and outdoor spaces. Update on the third international stroke trial IST -3 of thrombolysis for acute ischaemic stroke and baseline features of the patients recruited.
Full Text Available Abstract Background Intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator rtPA is approved in Europe for use in patients with acute ischaemic stroke who meet strictly defined criteria. IST -3 sought to improve the external validity and precision of the estimates of the overall treatment effects efficacy and safety of rtPA in acute ischaemic stroke, and to determine whether a wider range of patients might benefit.
Suitable patients had to be assessed and able to start treatment within 6 hours of developing symptoms, and brain imaging must have excluded intracranial haemorrhage and stroke mimics.
The analysis plan will be finalised, without reference to the unblinded data, and published before the trial data are unblinded in early The main trial results will be presented at the European Stroke Conference in Lisbon in May with the aim to publish simultaneously in a peer-reviewed journal.
The trial result will be presented in the context of an updated Cochrane systematic review. We also intend to include the trial data in an individual patient data meta-analysis of all the relevant randomised trials. Conclusion The data from the trial will: Power structures and gross-cultural interactions in the Baltic region. The "Baltic Frontier" revisited.

Previously, we reported that a region containing a tandem repeat of microtubule-interacting and transport MIT domains in calpain 7 interacts with a subset of endosomal sorting complex required for transport ESCRT -III-related proteins, suggesting involvement of calpain 7 in the ESCRT system. Although yeast and fungal calpains are thought to be involved in alkaline adaptation via limited proteolysis of specific transcription factors, proteolytic activity of calpain 7 has not been demonstrated yet.
Coimmunoprecipitation assays with various deletion or point mutants of epitope-tagged calpain 7 and IST 1 revealed that both repetitive MIT domains and MIMs are required for efficient interaction. The autolysis was almost completely abolished by 10 mmN-ethylmaleimide but only partially inhibited by 1 mm leupeptin or E These results demonstrate for the first time that human calpain 7 is proteolytically active, and imply that calpain 7 is activated in the ESCRT system.

Es ist nicht ausgeschlossen, dasz in der Erfahrung "fremde" Wahrheit anzutreffen ist , welche sich. Open Access and scholarly publications. Full Text Available In the last years the scientific system of publication was challenged increasingly. Open Access — the free access to scientific information — has contributed a lot to it. Therefore is a profound discussion with the phenomenon Open Access worthwhile. In this context the business model of traditional publishing is compared to that of the Open Access. This comparison should give the impulse to think over the interpretation of the Open Access referring to the Berlin Declaration and to open to new forms of the Open Access.
However, for this purpose existing enemy images must be destroyed which were aroused since the last years above all between commercial publishing companies and the science. In this respect the following implementations are not only a dialogue help, but they also refresh the legitimization of commercial publishing companies in the publication process and offer them a new action basis.
Because Open Access should be understood not only as a danger — above all it is a challenge and chance for the continuity of commercial scientific publishing companies. The point is that it is possible to break into electronic markets of tomorrow.

Sich nicht geschlagen geben. Zu Chantal Mouffes Begriff des Politischen. A critical evaluation of this thesis refers to the question whether such a consensus unconditionally requires the renunciation of any unalienable claim. Are breast biopsies adequately funded? A process cost and revenue analysis; Ist die Mammabiopsie ausreichend finanziert? Eine Prozesskosten und Erloesbetrachtung. The objective of the study was to determine whether the various breast biopsy procedures specified in the S 3 guidelines are sensibly represented within the current German health system as considered from a cost evaluation perspective.
Core needle biopsies, vacuum-assisted biopsies and surgical open biopsies under sonographic or mammographic guidance were evaluated. During an analysis of process costs, the individual process steps were recorded in diagrammatic form and assigned to the true consumption of resources. The actual resource consumption costs were entered.
A process-related breakeven analysis was conducted to check whether the reimbursement of individual biopsy types covers the costs.
Only sonographically guided core needle biopsy and surgical open biopsy are adequately reimbursed in the current German health system. All other breast biopsies indicate a negative profit margin. The principal reasons for underfunding are found in the area of reimbursement of investment and non-personnel costs.
The reimbursement of breast biopsies must be improved in order to guarantee nationwide care of the population using the breast biopsy methods recommended in the S 3 guidelines and to avoid disincentives with respect to breast biopsy indications. Close readings situate both German-language novels firmly within the generic conventions of chick lit, and then look at the ways the texts relate to postfeminism, as well as second- and third-wave feminism. I conclude by arguing that our concept of Frauenliteratur should be expanded to include chick lit as well as more overtly political feminist texts.
Intraoperative digital radiography for diagnosis of non-palpable breast lesions; Digitale intraoperative Praeparateradiographie bei diagnostischen Exzisionen nicht palpabler Laesionen der Brust. A procedure for performing intraoperative digital radiography of diagnostic breast specimens directly in the operating suite with teleradiologic assessment by a radiologist is presented. The efficiency of this procedure is compared with that of conventional magnification mammography performed in the radiology department.
Thirty-six specimen radiographs obtained by conventional magnification mammography were compared with 38 intraoperative digital magnification radiographs DIMA Soft P42 prototype, Feinfocus Inc. The radiographs were assessed for lesion conspicuity and time savings for the surgeon, anesthesiologist, and radiologist. The new technique resulted in considerable time savings for the surgeon and the radiologist.
The duration of surgery was shorter and the time interval from removal of the specimen to reporting of the results was reduced from about 23 min to about 13 min. A single radiograph was sufficient for complete visualization of the specimen in all cases. Digital intraoperative specimen radiography considerably reduces the time of surgery depending on the local conditions and is highly accurate in locating a suspicious area within the tissue. Es wird die Moeglichkeit vorgestellt, digitale intraoperative Praeparateradiographie bei diagnostischen Exzisionen direkt im OP-Trakt mit teleradiologischer Begutachtung durch den Radiologen durchzufuehren.
Die Leistungsfaehigkeit des Verfahrens wurde mit der konventionellen Vergroesserungsmammographie im Roentgeninstitut verglichen.
