Dangerous Perfection
In 2008, the Berlin Antikensammlung initiated a project with the J. Paul Getty Museum to conserve a group of ancient funerary vases from southern Italy. Monumental in scale and richly decorated, these magnificent vessels were discovered in hundreds of fragments in the early nineteenth century at Ceglie, near Bari. Acquired by a Bohemian diplomat, they were reconstructed in the Neapolitan workshop of Raffaele Gargiulo, who was considered one of the leading restorers of antiquities in Europe. His methods exemplify what was referred to as “une perfection dangereuse,” an approach to reassembly and repainting that made it difficult to distinguish what was ancient and what was modern. Bringing...
Health Informatics Meets EHealth
Progress in medicine has traditionally relied heavily on classical research pathways involving randomized clinical trials (RCTs) to establish reliable evidence for any given therapeutic intervention. However, not only are RCTs lengthy and expensive, they have a number of other disadvantages, including the fact that they are currently failing to keep pace with the number of potential innovative treatment options being developed, particularly in areas such as rare diseases. With the vast amount of data increasingly available for use in profiling patient characteristics and establishing correlations between outcomes and potential predictors, predictive modeling may offer a potential solution to...

The Films of the Nineties
The 1990s saw numerous actors break onto the scene in the movie industry and achieve great fame, while others received only little, if any, recognition. The 1990s also had blockbuster films that were not to be forgotten as well as bombs that were. This filmography, of course, has them all, good and bad. From Abilene to Zooman, over 3,000 feature-length English language films released between January 1, 1990, and December 31, 1999, are presented. Each entry has alternate titles, running time, detailed cast and production credits, a synopsis, often including critical comments, and Academy Award nominees and winners.
