Microsoft clarifies Halo Anniversary's use of Kinect, smoothes our furrowed brows (Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary)

Posted: 21 Jun 2011 03:31 AM PDT

It emerged yesterday that Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Edition will feature Kinect integration. With such scant information to work with, we had a guess at how that might work, concluding that any kind of Kinect-enabled gameplay would inevitably be rubbish. Seems like Microsoft realised its announcement was too vague and worrying, so it's released some much-needed clarifcation. Which is...

Remote Sensing, Vol. 3, Pages 1251-1265: Toronto’s Urban Heat Island—Exploring the Relationship between Land Use and Surface Temperature

Posted: 21 Jun 2011 12:00 AM PDT

The urban heat island effect is linked to the built environment and threatens human health during extreme heat events. In this study, we analyzed whether characteristic land uses within an urban area are associated with higher or lower surface temperatures, and whether concentrations of "hot" land uses exacerbate this relationship. Zonal statistics on a thermal remote sensing image for the City of Toronto revealed statistically significant differences between high average temperatures for commercial and resource/industrial land use (29.1 °C), and low average temperatures for parks and recreational land (25.1 °C) and water bodies (23.1 °C). Furthermore, higher concentrations of either of these land uses were associated with more extreme surface temperatures. We also present selected neighborhoods to illustrate these results. The paper concludes by recommending that municipal planners and decision-makers formulate policies and regulations that are specific to the problematic land uses, in order to mitigate extreme heat.

Toxins, Vol. 3, Pages 678-696: Developing Resistance to Aflatoxin in Maize and Cottonseed

Posted: 21 Jun 2011 12:00 AM PDT

At this time, no "magic bullet" for solving the aflatoxin contamination problem in maize and cottonseed has been identified, so several strategies must be utilized simultaneously to ensure a healthy crop, free of aflatoxins. The most widely explored strategy for the control of aflatoxin contamination is the development of preharvest host resistance. This is because A. flavus infects and produces aflatoxins in susceptible crops prior to harvest. In maize production, the host resistance strategy has gained prominence because of advances in the identification of natural resistance traits. However, native resistance in maize to aflatoxin contamination is polygenic and complex and, therefore, markers need to be identified to facilitate the transfer of resistance traits into agronomically viable genetic backgrounds while limiting the transfer of undesirable traits. Unlike maize, there are no known cotton varieties that demonstrate enhanced resistance to A. flavus infection and aflatoxin contamination. For this reason, transgenic approaches are being undertaken in cotton that utilize genes encoding antifungal/anti-aflatoxin factors from maize and other sources to counter fungal infection and toxin production. This review will present information on preharvest control strategies that utilize both breeding and native resistance identification approaches in maize as well as transgenic approaches in cotto

FEATURES:
• Players use the stylus on the touch screen to control a swarm of up to 10 Kirby characters at once. They can help players defeat enemies and find treasure.
