The U.S. counterinsurgency – symbolised by the omnipresent killing eye of drones – as it expands from the battlefield to the monitor, is criticised for inaugurating a geographically unbounded war that subjects the everyday life of a population to wartime targeting calculation. We, however, claim that the significant feature of the so-called new technologies of looking and targeting is in their abi

Energy conservation plays a vital role towards sustainable development of meat processing. Energy costs for many meat plants represent the fourth highest operational cost. In meat processing, moderate levels of both electrical and thermal energy are consumed in wide range of processes and applications. However, energy efficiency improvement in the meat processing industry have been a focus to incr

Kortvariga intensiva regn med varaktighet upp till en timme åren 1980–2007 från nederbördsmätare i Malmöhar analyserats för att finna intensiteter med lång återkomsttid. Oberoende observationer för olika stationer harsammanförts till en serie till vilken sannolikhetsfördelningar anpassats. Korttidsregnmätningars tillförlitlighetdiskuteras. De extrema händelserna har behandlats individuellt. För atShort-term intensive storms of duration up to an hour the years 1980–2007 from rain gauges in Malmö havebeen analyzed to find intensities of long return periods. Non-dependent observations from different stationshave been combined into a series to which probability functions have been adjusted. The extreme events havebeen investigated individually. The reliability of rain measurements is discussed

The European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF), a leading facility in synchrotron science, plays a crucial role in supporting both the local and the international scientific community by providing advanced instrumentation for their research. However, our understanding of the actual reach of the facility and its spatial dynamics remains limited. Thus, a methodology is proposed where author affi

ELT science drivers stress aperture, Strehl ratio, PSF definition andstability, field of view, wavelength range, flexibility, lowpolarisation and thermal emittance, auxiliary instruments, site andinfrastructure. Applicable science categories are planets and planetarysystems, stars and stellar systems, galaxies and galaxy clusters, andcosmology. ELT observations are needed for our own and other pla

The frame story
takes place in a dystopian Europe, possibly some kind of European Union around 2050 – in a state of conflicts and decay. The protagonists are a retired general, Piscator (cf. Fisher King) and a former journalist, Perle Vaus (cf. Perlesvaus/Perceval/Parsifal). She lost her home because of a new genderrelated law and stays homeless with others, covered by the Saxon bridge.
