This article takes as its starting point the similar, yet differing, experiences of hearing voices among prisoners in Myanmar. It discusses why the experience of hearing voices described by prisoners is regarded as an occasion to share compassion when it occurs during meditation retreats and as torture when it occurs in solitary confinement. The article uses the concept of liminality to make sense

SUMMARY: RankViaContact is a web service for calculation of residue-residue contact energies in proteins based on a coarse-grained model, and for visualization of interactions. The service provides information about ranked contact energies of residues, coordination numbers and the relative solvent accessibility of selected residues, as well as sequence and structure information. The program can be

The number of components that can be fit into a single chip is increasing over time, because of improved manufacturing technology. An efficient way to con- nect the components is through a packet switched network, a Network on Chip. Such a network can be designed in many different ways. An effective way to explore the large design space is by simulation. In this project, we have devel- oped a n

A geometry model for three dimensional fibre networks is proposed. The geometry model is intended to be a part of a system, where data from a computer tomography of a fibre material can be fitted to the geometry model and from there, be evaluated according to key parameters such as fibre length, fibre orientation angles and radii of curvature. The model is also intended to give the geometry foundation

A well established notion in Buddhist literature is that meditation practice improves the ability to be mindful in daily life which in turn promotes psychological wellbeing. In order to test this hypothesis the relations between meditation experience, five mindfulness facets and psychological well-being were studied in a sample consisting of Buddhist meditators, Western mindfulness meditators and

Weather surveillance radars are increasingly used for monitoring the movements and abundances of animals in the airspace. However, analysis of weather radar data remains a specialised task that can be technically challenging. Major hurdles are the difficulty of accessing and visualising radar data on a software platform familiar to ecologists and biologists, processing the low-level data into prod

Geographical Information Systems (GISs) have shown to be of great help in the work at contaminated sites. Today there is an increase in the development of 3D modeling in many fields. However, to combine the advantage working with spatial data in a GIS and 3D modeling for subsurface soil data is limited. In this study, the possibilities of interpolating volumes of soil contamination in 3D were inve
