Perspective:Societally connected multimedia across cultures

The advance of the Internet in the past decade has radically changed the way people communicate and col- laborate with each other. Physical distance is no more a barrier in online social networks, but cultural differences (at the individual, community, as well as societal levels) still govern human-human interactions and must be con- sidered and leveraged in the online world. The rapid de-ployment of high-speed Internet allows humans to interact using a rich set of multimedia data such as texts, pictures, and videos. This position paper proposes to define a new research area called ’connected multimedia’, which is the study of a collection of research issues of the super-area social media that receive little attention in the literature. By connected multimedia, we mean the study of the social and technical interactions among users, multimedia data, and devices across cultures and explicitly exploiting the cultural differences. We justify why it is necessary to bring attention to this new research area and what benefits of this new research area may bring to the broader scientific research community and the humanity.     

The effects of withholding feed and water on carcass shrinkage and meat quality in beef cattle

Eighty beef crossbred steers with an average weight of 493 kg (4·66 kg SD) were allocated at random to one of five treatments to assess the effects of withholding feed and water on carcass shrinkage and meat quality. The five treatments were: slaughter from the feedlot (T1); and 12, 24, 36 and 48 h periods without feed and water prior to slaughter (T2-5).Weights were taken of the live animal and the carcass to monitor shrinkage along with relevant meat quality measurements. There were no treatment differences (P > 0·05) in initial farm weight, but plant weight shrinkage increased from 31gkg(-1) for T1 to 106 g kg(-1) for T5. Warm carcass weight decreased (P < 0·05) from 278·8 kg for T1, to 270·7 kg for T3 and 261·9 kg for T5. Liver, alimentary tract components, hide and head decreased as a proportion of farm weight as time without feed and water increased. Muscle pH at 6 days post mortem was increased (P < 0·05) in T3-5 compared to T1, with the result that muscle colour became darker, and steaks had less drip loss. Shear values increased (P < 0·05) from 6·3 kg in T1 to 7·7 kg in T4 and T5 indicating an increase in muscle toughness as time without feed and water increased. It was concluded that steers lose live weight rapidly within the first 24 h without feed and water, and that these relatively short periods of time (24 h) can have detrimental effects on carcass shrinkage and muscle quality.

拒绝浪费 重复文件无所遁形

对于重要的数据或文件经常备份是无可厚非的,可总有些电脑玩家会“备份过度”。在电脑内多个目录内都保存着相同的文件,这样势必会造成磁盘空间的浪费。存放文件虽然简单,但要想查找到这些重复文件并删除就非易事了,只能搜索文件名或文件夹名后对比文件大小和日期才敢放心删除。不过,有一款文件查重工具可以在这个时候派上用场。     

看准就出手!二手“小黑”选购记

时至今日,三千元的低价笔记本电脑早已大量充斥在卖场之中,此时再谈及选购二手本本,颇有一种“不合算”的感觉。但如果要选购的是一台轻薄机型,在此价位七则只能得到一声叹息。或者低廉小巧的“上网本”能满足要求,只是受屏幕分辨率、内存容置和扩展性上的限制,又使其难以应付不同的使用环境,多有鸡肋之嫌。而此时二手的12英寸便携本本也降到两千元出头的水平,无论上网、听歌、看电影,皆是得心应手,最重要的是凭借着ThinkPad这块代表品质的金字招牌,还能圆了许多人的“小黑”梦想。
