Nintendo Dominates Contracting Japanese Videogame Market

MarioKotaku's Brian Ashcraft translated Famitsu's report on the 2008 year end sales data for Japan put together by Enterbrain.

Hardware bore the brunt of the loss, falling some 23 percent from 327.41 billion Yen to 250.5 billion Yen spent, and in part this can be attributed to price reductions on the consoles.

The Manga Guide to Statistics

stoolpigeon writes "Many manga titles that are popular in Japan are being translated into English and published in the United States. This trend continues with a book that puts a slightly different spin on manga. The Manga Guide to Statistics, part of a series already popular in Japan, seeks to entertain while it informs. There are many elements here that can be found in any manga; a young love-struck girl, giant eyes, small noses and exaggerated emotional responses. What many may not have seen in manga before are things like calculating the mean, median and deviation of bowling scores. And that is just the start." Read below for the rest of JR's review.

A Case for the Language Arts By Mary Ellen Bafumo

The same scheduling can block a love of reading and the acquisition of requisite skills, when instruction focuses narrowly on reading.

Constructing a Generic Natural Language Interface for an XML Database

This paper describes the construction of a generic natural language query interface to an XML database. The interface can accept an arbitrary English sentence as a query, which can be quite complex and include aggregation, nesting, and value joins, among other things. This query is translated, potentially after reformulation, into an XQuery expression. The translation is based on mapping grammatical proximity of natural language parsed tokens in the parse tree of the query sentence to proximity of corresponding elements in the XML data to be retrieved. The experimental assessment, through a user study, demonstrates that this type of natural language interface is good enough to be usable now, with no restrictions on the application domain.
