We present the discovery of another seven Y dwarfs from Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE). Using these objects, as well first six WISE dwarf discoveries Cushing et al., we further explore transition between spectral types T and Y. find that T/Y boundary roughly coincides with spot where J-H colors brown dwarfs, predicted by models, turn back to red. Moreover, use preliminary trigonometric parallax measurements show may also correspond point at which absolute H (1.6 um) W2 (4.6...
Object Posterior fossa decompression with duraplasty for Chiari malformation Type I (CM-I) is a common pediatric neurosurgery procedure. Published series report complication rate ranging from 3% to 40% this Historically, many dural substitutes have been used, including bovine grafts, human cadaveric pericardium, synthetic dura, and autologous pericranium.

The term yoga-nidra has been used in many empirical studies to refer relaxation and guided imagery. These techniques do not represent the intention or physiological correlates of yoganidra discussed traditional yoga literature. We propose an operational definition that is supported by several physiologically testable hypotheses regarding its outcomes effects. Traditional descriptions contemporary accounts practice are reviewed, examining examined. Proposed for future research using this provided.
Recent work on the psychological distinctions between shame and guilt has important implications for mental health counselors.

Fictitious scenarios illustrate utility theory...
We have performed a 970 arcmin2 (1.75 pc2) survey of the young cluster IC 2391 using High Acuity Wide field K-band Imager on Very Large Telescope. Observations were made in both CH4 and H filters, targeting methane absorption found T dwarfs. From our cluster, five candidate dwarfs found. This is substantially smaller than number that would be by an equivalent near-infrared broad-band imaging survey, allowed rapid spectroscopy all candidates. Follow-up was carried out Folded-port Infrared...
