Surgery for the Internal Derangement of the TMJ is explored in this important issue in the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics. Articles will include: Condylectomies in condylar hyperplasia of the TMJ: Are they necessary?; Acute and chronic dislocation of the temporomandibular joint: What options do we have?; Ankylosis of the temporomandibular joint: How do we treat it?; Adjunct medical management for temporomandibular joint disorders: Where are we going?; Orthognathic surgery in the TMD patient: What happens later?; Missing temporomandibular joint congenital conditions: when do we operate?; Articular disc repositioning of the TMJ: does it really work?; Idiopathic condylar resorption of the temporomandibular joint: How do we stop it?; TMJ surgical complications; Connective tissue autoimmune disease: How does it affect the TMJ and where are we going?; and more.

This book provides the first comprehensive, up-to-date and self-contained introduction to the emergent field of Programmable Integrated Photonics (PIP). It covers both theoretical and practical aspects, ranging from basic technologies and the building of photonic component blocks, to design alternatives and principles of complex programmable photonic circuits, their limiting factors, techniques for characterization and performance monitoring/control, and their salient applications both in the classical as well as in the quantum information fields. The book concentrates and focuses mainly on the distinctive features of programmable photonics, as compared to more traditional ASPIC approaches. After some years during which the Application Specific Photonic Integrated Circuit (ASPIC) paradigm completely dominated the field of integrated optics, there has been an increasing interest in PIP. The rising interest in PIP is justified by the surge in a number of emerging applications that call for true flexibility and reconfigurability, as well as low-cost, compact, and low-power consuming devices. Programmable Integrated Photonics is a new paradigm that aims at designing common integrated optical hardware configurations, which by suitable programming, can implement a variety of functionalities. These in turn can be exploited as basic operations in many application fields. Programmability enables, by means of external control signals, both chip reconfiguration for multifunction operation, as well as chip stabilization against non-ideal operations due to fluctuations in environmental conditions and fabrication errors. Programming also allows for the activation of parts of the chip, which are not essential for the implementation of a given functionality, but can be of help in reducing noise levels through the diversion of undesired reflections.

This is the story of an undocumented immigrant living in the United States. As I look back to that unforgettable day, my family and I set out for this country, I never thought twenty years later I would be looking back to tell my story. And twenty years later, I never thought I would still be in the same position I was when I crossed the border undocumented. In this book, I reflect back on my most intimate, personal, and embarrassing moments as I adapted to a new country, a new culture, and a new way of life. Will my status ever change? That remains to be seen, as for now, I focus on the present in hopes for a more secure, peaceful future in this country.

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the challenges of neuromarketing application in Humanistic Communication and healthcare campaign research. This is based on a personal interest in the development of healthcare campaigns and the adaption of theories. Gadamer's notion on interdisciplinary linking, builds a(interdisciplinary) bridge between my fascination with technological and theatrical development, and the philosophy of communication research.
