EURO mini conference on "Optimization in the natural Sciences"
No seguimento dos três encontros nacionais promovidos pelo Instituto Geogebra Portugal, o quarto realizar-se-á no dia 31 de Maio. De volta à Escola Superior de Educação do Instituto Politécnico do Porto realizaremos o encontro sobre o Lema “Para Além de Euclides”.
No ano anterior, a problemática da prova e as potencialidades do uso do GeoGebra no apoio do ensino foi objeto da nossa reflexão, mas ficou registado o uso do GeoGebra, pela primeira vez, para o trabalho de representações em quatro dimensões. Este ano pretendemos continuar a refletir sobre o uso do GeoGebra no ensino, salientando novas aplicações e utilizações do software, contando com a presença de responsáveis pelos institutos GeoGebra de S. Paulo e de Fortaleza.
This Workshop is organized within CIDMA, and it is intended as a place for sharing new ideas and establishing new contacts between different fields.
International Conference: "ELementary Geometry from an Advanved Point of View"
This intensive course follows the eleven held at the Universities of Coimbra and Aveiro from 1995 to 2007 and there are plans for intensive courses in the following years. The lecture notes of some of the courses have been published in Coimbra and others are in print.
This intensive course is intended to celebrate the long lasting co-operation between the involved Universities. Students and Lecturers from almost a dozen European countries participated in the past and we hope that this will also continue in the future. We kindly ask all of you which kept in touch with former participants to forward them this message.
It is our great pleasure to invite you to participate in the the 5th international workshop on Multidimensional (nD) Systems (nDS2007).
Following the previous four editions (Lagow, 1998, Czocha 2000, Notre Dame 2002, Wuppertal 2005), nDS2007 will be held in Aveiro, Portugal, from June 27 to June 29, 2007.
"A Universidade de Aveiro acolhe a conferência satélite da 56ª Sessão Bienal do Instituto Internacional de Estatística, ISI. Intitulado «IASC 07 - Statistics for Data Mining, Learning and Knowledge Extraction», este encontro é do interesse de quem habitualmente trabalha com um grande volume de dados informáticos científicos ou outros, e reunirá, na UA, centenas de especialistas em estatística.
Promovida pela International Association for Statistical Computing, IASC, uma organização associada do International Statistical Institute, esta conferência satélite servirá para promover a interacção entre os investigadores das várias áreas que utilizam a estatística como ferramenta privilegiada de trabalho.
Computational statistics, data mining, knowledge discovery e statistical learning serão os conceitos-chave explorados pelos oradores convidados, nas sessões, posters e em demonstrações informáticas a decorrer nestes três dias dedicados à Estatística.
Cerca de três mil especialistas e utilizadores das diferentes áreas estatísticas estão já reunidos em Lisboa, para participarem na 56ª Sessão Bienal do ISI, a decorrer, pela primeira vez, em Portugal.“Dow ungliyaan”. :). Nice one.
Aur haan. I agree with Sushant. Grover, tum Poona jao :).
Nice work. The story loads quite fast which is good. Thanks for the great information.
From where did you get the vintage kwality picture?
Oooh….just saw so many comments. For some reason, am not getting the email updates for comments.
@Faking News: Coming from a fellow satirist, feels good. Thanks.
@Mayank: Google zindabaad. Though I have an old magazine too, with this picture, as well as some more from their honeymoon period.
Was specifically looking for this one in google and (not surprisingly) found it.
Terribly Hilarious! too darn good … visiting your blog after a long time and had great fun as always..
Rahul Gandhi accepting sweets.. ha ha.. too good.. keep it going..
didn’t get the ‘Poona’ joke BTW between you/Atul.. in case you’re coming in feel free to drop by.
@Sidd M: Poona joke is actually from the ‘hit’ TV show ‘CID’ where the boss, ACP Pradyuman, keeps telling one of his cronies (Daya) to go to one or another random location on India’s map.Burgers are an option that millions of people love worldwide.
For decades, there have been many variants.
Some of them surprise us with their inventiveness, while others are shocking.
Here are some of the most bizarre sandwiches that have been created so far.
Apart from all well-known types of meat, such as poultry, beef, veal, lamb, a burger can also be prepared using meat from other animals.
An unusual, but not yet so strange idea, is to use game meat for this purpose.
More controversy is caused by ostrich or kangaroo burgers.
Fortunately, this unusually looking dish owes its colour to fully natural ingredients – squid ink and bamboo charcoal.
However, it must be said that the black buns look impressive on a plate.
the idea of preparing a burger patty from them seems quite unusual.
These can are already available in several European cities, but we need to wait a little longer to try the “Bug Burger” in Poland.
A donut burger, which is something for people who can never decide between sweet or salty.
The burger is of course made of beef, vegetables, sauces, but donuts are used instead of the bun – American ones with a hole, which are coated with sweet icing.
Although there are hundreds of combinations of burgers, this dish will continue to surprise with atypical ingredients. These unusual choices will certainly not appeal to everyone, but they have new fans among people hungry for culinary experience. And have you had an opportunity to taste this type of burger? If not, we recommend you to experiment…. it may be worth starting with a slightly unusual Lamb Prime burger.Kidney transplantation from living unrelated donors.

OBJECTIVE
To compare patient and graft survival of recipients of kidneys from living, unrelated donors (LUDs); cadaveric donors; and living, related donors (LRDs) matched for zero (mismatched), one, or two (identical) haplotypes.


DESIGN
Cohort study.


SETTING
Sixty-three renal transplantation centers affiliated with the Brazilian Transplantation Registry (accounting for more than 95% of the transplantation activity in Brazil).


PATIENTS
Patients having renal transplantation between January 1987 and March 1991. Of 2892 patients, 165 (6%) received transplants from LUDs; 964 (33%), from cadaveric donors; 183 (6%), from zero haplotype, HLA-matched LRDs; 1259 (44%), from one haplotype-matched LRDs; and 321 (11%), from two haplotype-matched LRDs.


MEASUREMENTS
Patient and graft survival. Patients were followed for an average of 15.8 months.


RESULTS
After adjustment for age, race, diagnosis of primary disease, history of previous transplantation, cyclosporine use, and number of transplants from LUDs per center, patient survival did not differ statistically for recipients of kidneys from LUDs and recipients of cadaveric kidneys (risk ratio [RR], 1.16; 95% Cl, 0.68 to 1.98). Little difference was seen between the adjusted death rate for recipients of zero haplotype-matched LRDs and recipients of cadaveric kidneys (RR, 1.13; Cl, 0.69 to 1.87). Similarly, in a multivariate analysis, recipients of kidneys taken from LUDs and zero haplotype-matched LRDs had a risk for graft failure that did not differ statistically from
