151 Couldwell, William T.Response to comment on: the combined transmastoid retro- and infralabyrinthine transjugular transcondylar transtubercular high cervical approach for resection of glomus jugulare tumorsWe appreciate the comments by Dr. Sanna regarding our article (1). We recognize Dr. Sanna has much experience with these tumors and that, as cranial base surgeons, we should work as a team of neurosurgeons, otologists, and occasionally, head and neck surgeons and plastic surgeons. We also agree tha...Jugular foramen tumor; Glomus jugulare tumors2007
152 Zhdanov, Michael S.Rigorous 3D inversion of marine CSEM data based on the integral equation methodMarine controlled-source electromagnetic (MCSEM) surveys have become an important part of offshore petroleum exploration. However, due to enormous computational difficulties with full 3D inversion, practical interpretation of MCSEM data is still a very challenging problem. We present a new approach ...2007
153 Henderson, Thomas C.RobotShare: a framework for robot knowledge sharingKnowledge representation is a traditional field in artificial intelligence. Researchers have developed various ways to represent and share information among intelligent agents. Agents that share resources, data, information, and knowledge perform better than agents working alone. However, previou...RobotShare; Robot knowledge sharing2007
154 Morse, Michael DavidRotationally resolved spectra of jet-cooled RuSiWe report the first gas-phase spectroscopic investigation of diatomic ruthenium silicide (RuSi). The molecules were produced by laser ablation of a Ru disk into a flow of helium carrier gas containing 0.5% SiH4, and were cooled in a supersonic expansion. The RuSi molecules were then studied using re...2007
155 Morse, Michael DavidRotationally resolved spectra of jet-cooled VMoThe Author's report the first gas-phase spectroscopic investigation of diatomic vanadium molybdenum (VMo).

156 Morse, Michael DavidRotationally resolved spectroscopy of jet-cooled NbMoRotationally resolved resonant two-photon ionization spectra of jet-cooled NbMo are reported for the first time. A vibronic spectrum of NbMo was recorded in the 17 300?22 300 cm?1 spectral region. Although the observed bands could not be grouped into electronic band systems, four excited vibronic le...2007
157 Gopalakrishnan, Ganesh; Kirby, Robert Michael IIRuntime model checking of multithreaded C/C++ programsWe present inspect, a tool for model checking safety prop- erties of multithreaded C/C++ programs where threads in- teract through shared variables and synchronization primi- tives.

158 Sikorski, KrisSelected fixed point problems and algorithmsWe present a new version of the almost optimal Circumscribed Ellipsoid Algorithm (CEA) for approximating fixed points of nonexpanding Lipschitz functions. We utilize the absolute and residual error criteria with respect to the second norm. The numerical results confirm that the CEA algorithm is m...Fixed point problems; Optimal algorithms; Nonlinear equations; Ellipsoid algorithm; Computational complexity.2007
159 Silverman, Randall H.Seven deadly sins of disaster recoveryDisaster response is largely about managing people. Human failings and vice can delay or derail library and archives recovery activities, causing irreparable damage to irreplaceable cultural property. Peter Waters' seven requirements for conducting successful disaster recoveries are contrasted with ...Peter Waters; Florence flood; Disaster plan; Recovery protocol; Library; Archive2007

162 Morse, Michael DavidSpin-forbidden c??+??X??+ band system of YFOptical spectra of jet-cooled diatomic YF have been recorded using resonant two-photon ionization spectroscopy. A vibrational progression corresponding to the c 3?1+?X 1?+ system has been identified. The vibrational frequency ?e' and anharmonicity ?'exe' of the c 3?+ state are 546.70 and 2.45 cm?1,...2007
163 Schmidt, Meic H.Spinal extradural arachnoid cysts: clinical, radiological, and surgical featuresExtradural arachnoid cysts in the spine are rare and are seldom a cause of spinal cord compression. They are thought to arise from congenital defects in the dura mater, and they almost always communicate with the intrathecal subarachnoid space through a small defect in the dura. The mainstay of trea...Spinal extradural arachnoid cyst; Spinal meningeal cyst; Neurogenic claudication2007
164 Armentrout, Peter B.Statistical modeling of sequential collision-induced dissociation thresholdsThermochemistry determined from careful analysis of the energy dependence of cross sections for collision-induced dissociation (CID) reactions has primarily come from the primary dissociation channel. Higher order dissociations generally have thresholds measured to be higher than the thermodynamic ...Collision-induced dissociation; Endothermic reactions2007
165 Chapman, David S.; Harris, Robert N.Stop-go temperature logging for precision applicationsWe describe a new field procedure for stop-go temperature logging of boreholes that attains millikelvin precision. Temperature is recorded continuously throughout the entire log, but the logging probe is held stationary for a fixed time at discrete depth intervals. Equilibrium temperatures at the di...Temperature logging; Boreholes; Stop-go logging method2007
