Brett arrives at his friend Sean's house to study together for their finals. They complain about how much work they have and their difficult professor, Dr. Brockus. Their complaints escalate as they criticize nearly every aspect of the professor, from his jokes to his teaching ability. Their conversation takes an alarming turn when Sean jokes that they should murder the professor. Brett becomes uncomfortable and leaves abruptly. The document ends with two other students beginning a similar study session, suggesting the earlier conversation went to an inappropriate place.
This short document promotes creating presentations using Haiku Deck, a tool for making slideshows. It encourages the reader to get started making their own Haiku Deck presentation and sharing it on SlideShare. In just one sentence, it pitches the idea of using Haiku Deck to easily create engaging slideshow presentations.
This document contains an excerpt of a letter written in an informal, abbreviated style using slang and text message shorthand. The letter expresses love and longing from the writer to the recipient, Teresa, mentioning their love for each other and a book they both enjoyed. It references the distance currently between them due to the Alps and sea, but says these will not truly divide them unless she wills it.

Curvature-Based Registration for Slice Interpolation of Medical ImagesAhmadreza Baghaie
The document proposes a new curvature-based registration method for slice interpolation of medical images. It combines image registration and interpolation into a single optimization that registers two input slices and interpolates the in-between slice. Tests on synthetic and medical images show the method achieves higher accuracy and speed compared to linear interpolation. Future work includes C/C++ and GPU implementations for increased computational efficiency.
The document discusses some key characteristics of human language that distinguish it from animal communication. It describes five main characteristics: 1) Displacement - the ability to talk about things not present, 2) Arbitrariness - the lack of natural relationship between words and their meanings, 3) Productivity - the ability to create new utterances by combining elements, 4) Duality - the combination of meaningless sounds that form meaningful words, and 5) Cultural transmission - the acquisition of language through exposure within a culture rather than genetically. It provides examples and explanations of each characteristic.

Abstract: In this paper a fast triangular mesh based registration method is proposed. Having Template and Reference images as inputs, the template image is triangulated using a content adaptive mesh generation algorithm. Considering the pixel values at mesh nodes, interpolated using spline interpolation method for both of the images, the energy functional needed for image registration is minimized. The minimization process was achieved using a mesh based discretization of the distance measure and regularization term which resulted in a sparse system of linear equations, which due to the smaller size in comparison to the pixel-wise registration method, can be solved directly. Mean Squared Di?erence (MSD) is used as a metric for evaluating the results. Using the mesh based technique, higher speed was achieved compared to pixel-based curvature registration technique with fast DCT solver. The implementation was done in MATLAB without any specific optimization. Higher speeds can be achieved using C/C++ implementations.
In classical architecture, the term "order" is used to distinguish between different styles of columns and entablatures used in Greek and Roman temples and buildings. There are five orders but the main three are Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian. Doric columns are the heaviest with a plain capital and thick shaft. Ionic columns have greater elegance with distinctive volutes and a thinner shaft. The Corinthian order is also tall and elegant with acanthus leaf decoration on the capital and a base.
