Satoshi Inoue
Renowned guitarist Jim Hall calls his former protege Satoshi Inoue, "an excellent jazz guitarist with a keen musical imagination." The two performed together on a guitar duet that was featured on Hall's widely used instructional video collection called Jazz Guitar Master Class Volumes 1&2. In 2005, Hall and Inoue appeared in Village Vanguard 70th anniversary together. Born in Kobe Japan, Inoue studied at Kyoto's Fuji School of Music from 1979-81. Between 1981-1988, he led his own groups in Japan. He moved to New York in 1989 to study at The New School University where he met Hall. He has been on the faculty of the University since his senior year.
Over the years, Inoue has toured with jazz greats such as James Moody; James Williams; Cecil Bridgewater; Frank Foster; Slide Hampton; Barry Harris; Jimmy Heath; Arnie Lawrence; Jack McDuff; Junior Mance; Jon Faddis; Akira Tana and Toshiko Akiyoshi.
Inoue has recorded five albums as leader;Plays Satoshi(1996 Paddle Wheel Records), Songs (1999 Paddle Wheel Records) and Live At Smoke(2002 What's New Records), Guitars Alone(duet with Peter Bernstein,2003 What's New Records)and Melodic Compositions(2006 What's New Records). His own band has gigged at New York's top jazz venues - past and present - including The Blue Note, Sweet Basil, Birdland, Smoke, the Village Gate and Zinc Bar. For eleven years, Inoue has brought American musicians to Japan to conduct fall tours for concerts and workshops, including the "Big Apple in Nonoichi" festival. Jazz critics and musicians have known about Satoshi Inoue for quite some time. A jazz historian Ira Gitler describes hearing Satoshi live in the early 90s at Sazerac House, a restaurant on New York's Hudson Street: "I was taken with the unforced flow of his ideas and the mellow sound with which he transmitted them" he says.
His lectures on jazz standards appear monthly in a Japanese jazz magazine called Jazz Life
Anti-self-dual bihermitian structures on Inoue surfaces
No full textIn this article we show that any hyperbolic Inoue surface (also called Inoue-Hirzebruch surface of even type) admits anti-self-dual bihermitian structures. The same result holds for any of its small deformations as far as its anti-canonical system is non-empty. Similar results are obtained for parabolic Inoue surfaces. Our method also yields a family of anti-self-dual hermitian metrics on any half Inoue surface. We use the twistor method of Donaldson-Friedman [13] for the proof.

Lecideoid lichens of Prince Olav Coast and Soya Coast, Enderby Land, East Antarctica
No full textFive species of lecideoid lichens belonging to three genera are reported as new to the flora of the Prince Olav Coast and the Soya Coast, Enderby Land, East Antarctica; they are Carbonea capsulata (DODGE & BAKER) HALE, Lecidea andersonii R. FILSON, Lecidea cancriformis DODGE & BAKER, Lecidea soyaensis M. INOUE and Lecidella siplei (DODGE & BAKER) M. INOUE. All are endemic to Antarctica. An examination was made of the collections from the region, which were collected mainly by the author under the project of the 27th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE-27,during January 1986 and February 1987). The type and authentic specimens of possibly related species have been restudied. Lecidea soyaensis M. INOUE is new to science and Lecidella siplei (DODGE & BAKER) M. INOUE is proposed as a new combination. Taxonomic and chemical data as well as a key to the known taxa are provided

The Hobby of Electronic Circuit Engineering
No full textThis website (originally created in Japanese and translated into English using translation software) by a Japanese systems engineer, Seiichi Inoue, provides an extensive overview of electronic circuit engineering. Topics covered include: Basic knowledge of Electronic parts, Basic knowledge of Engineering Instruments, an Introduction of Engineering Method, and the Assembly Process. A variety of electronic circuits and their uses are provided, as well as a separate section on PIC electronic circuits. The language may be difficult to follow at times given the translation, but still a gem of a site for anyone wanting to build some circuits! Keep in mind that in some sections, the author notes that he is "describing while studying, there seems to be mistakes in the contents. Do at your own risk." For some further browsing, he includes sections on his other interests, such as 3D photography, java programming, CAD, Japanese customs and the Japanese language
A novel approach to prevent spinal cord ischemia: Inoue stent graft with a side branch of small caliber for the reconstruction of the artery of Adamkiewicz
No full textObjectivesParaplegia remains a serious complication after endovascular repair of thoracic aortic aneurysms, and it has been reported that paraplegia might be due to ischemia of the artery of Adamkiewicz. This study investigates the feasibility of an Inoue stent graft with a side branch of a small caliber for the reconstruction of the intercostal artery branching the artery of Adamkiewicz.MethodsBranched Inoue stent grafts were implanted into the thoracic aorta and 11th intercostal artery of 5 mongrel dogs. The side branch measured 3 × 5 mm and contained a bare-metal coronary stent for fixing to the intercostal arterial wall. Aortography and selective angiography of the 11th intercostal artery were performed before and immediately after implantation and after 1, 4, 8, and 12 weeks. The luminal diameter of the intercostal artery before implantation was 2.4 ± 0.3 mm.ResultsAll stent grafts were successfully deployed. The main body of the graft did not develop endoleak or migrate, and the side branch remained patent for 12 weeks. Angiography performed 1 week postoperatively revealed smooth flow with slight stenosis (4.2% ± 1.7%) along the side branches and the intercostal arteries in all dogs. Four weeks postoperatively, however, mild concentric stenosis (38% ± 16%) along the side branch was observed in 4 of the 5 dogs. The percent stenosis at 8 and 12 weeks was 38% ± 15% and 33% ± 11%, respectively; these values were not significantly different from the value at 4 postoperative weeks.ConclusionsA novel Inoue stent graft with a side branch of small caliber was successfully deployed into the canine thoracic aorta and intercostal artery; the side branch remained patent for 12 weeks. This novel technique may enable endovascular reconstruction of the Adamkiewicz artery

Training in peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) for esophageal achalasia
No full textNicholas Eleftheriadis, Haruhiro Inoue, Haruo Ikeda, Manabu Onimaru, Akira Yoshida, Toshihisa Hosoya, Roberta Maselli, Shin-ei KudoDigestive Disease Center, Showa University Northern Yokohama Hospital, Yokohama, JapanAbstract: Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) has been developed in the context of natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) as a minimally invasive endoscopic treatment for symptomatic esophageal achalasia, which is a chronic progressive benign disease with severe morbidity and difficult management. Since September 2008, POEM has been successfully performed in more than 200 consecutive patients with symptomatic achalasia at the Digestive Disease Center of Showa University, Northern Yokohama Hospital, Yokohama, Japan, with excellent short- and long-term results and absence of serious complications. International experience of POEM within clinical studies is also promising. According to these results, POEM is considered as a safe procedure that can be applied to all achalasia patients. However, the low incidence of achalasia (0.3%&ndash;1% per 100,000 population), in combination with the potential serious complications related to the technically demanding POEM procedure, has made training difficult. There is therefore an urgent need for an animal model for training to decrease the learning curve. Further, there are other ethical and training issues to address. The pig is the most appropriate animal model for training in POEM due to its anatomy being similar to that of humans. The porcine esophagus has the advantage of easy mobilization due to absence of tight junctions to surrounding organs. A non-survival porcine model would be a simple, inexpensive, and reproducible animal model for training in POEM, without the need for concern about complications. A possible training process might first involve observation of POEM performed by specialists, then training on non-survival and survival porcine models, followed by training in humans under specialist guidance and finally, performance of POEM in humans.Keywords: porcine organ model, non-survival, porcine esophagus, Heller myotom
