JApr 26, 2006Critics do not review an album based on the content alone, but rather try to compare the content with other albums. My point is that this is an amazing album. How can you give this album a bad review? Well, that's easy... compare this album against wonderland, circus, innocents, chorus, erasure self-titled, and cowboy. I really feel that we are the critics, because they are so damn negative all the time and it seems like they never appreciate fine art such as this.… Full Review »

Five years after a retired Wellington taxi driver went missing, police now believe he may have been murdered - and are digging up yards and tearing up floorboards in their search for his body.
Vietnamese refugee Do Trieu, 68, disappeared from his Mt Cook home on or soon after August 20, 2008.
Yesterday, police said his disappearance was now officially considered a homicide, as they closed in on his killer or killers.
Mr Trieu's disappearance received little attention at the time, because police treated it as a missing person case.
Now they believe he is dead, and that his death was "very suspicious".
"Initially it was treated as a missing person case, but further inquiries have now established the matter as a homicide investigation," said Detective Senior Sergeant Warwick McKee, in charge of the inquiry.
"We've completed a pretty thorough review this year."
A team of six detectives assigned to the file since May have been turning over Mr Trieu's former life, hunting for his body and details of his death.
"We're reinvestigating the disappearance of Do Trieu. I don't believe he is alive," Mr McKee said. "We believe somebody has been responsible for [his] death. We are doing our best to get some resolution."
Last month police tracked down Mr Trieu's old car and checked it for DNA.
They also returned to the Housing New Zealand apartment he shared with his second wife, Chi Thi Nguyen, in Rolleston St, Mt Cook, where they dug up sections of the yard, scoured the basement of the complex, and tore up the flat's floorboards searching for his body.
Several "items of interest" were found, Mr McKee said, though he would not elaborate on what they were.
Recent inquiries have determined that Mr Trieu went on a three-day holiday to Rotorua on August 17, 2008, with his wife and two friends.
They returned to Wellington on August 20, police say. Mr Trieu was not reported missing until September 14.
When questioned in 2008, Mrs Nguyen told police her husband left again on August 21, bound for Auckland. Interviewed by police again this week, she repeated that, Mr McKee said.
"But we don't believe he's gone to Auckland. We believe he hasn't left Wellington. We will be speaking to her and getting another account from her.
"She is a person we will be contacting and speaking to in depth, as with . . . a whole lot of other people."
Mr Trieu's daughter, Hanh, who lives in Lower Hutt, said this week that, even before the road trip, she had concerns for her father's safety.
He told her he was going to Taupo, not Rotorua. And she believes he never came home.
"They were always fighting, not happy," she said of his relationship with Mrs Nguyen, who was 28 years younger than him. "Maybe something happened, something bad. Maybe he said something that made her angry or upset.
"I think my dad went to Taupo on a trip and maybe they killed my dad. I don't think he came back."
Police urge anyone with information about Do Trieu to contact them on 0800 387846.

The stock overhang is an even bigger problem if it is not Windows 8 compatible. Without a qualified UEFI BIOS in place, then this is strictly Win7 or Linux stock.
With the success of Win8 not guaranteed by any means then there will need to be stock capable of addressing both markets and this can only be achieved with an installed UEFI with a disable option. Microsoft does not allow disable on it's ARM machines but does on it's X86 machines. If X86 PC's are installed with a disable option then the panic currently felt in the Linux community will be unfounded.
It seems unfair to the Chinese manufacturers on which Microsoft depends as platforms for it's product sales, are now being held to ransom by it's product requirements and delivery schedules.
We live in interesting times for sure.
Re: The Elephant in the room
wouldn't it be interesting if the Chinese sold off this overstock at discounted prices with Linux Mint or another popular consumer friendly Linux on it.
Here's hoping.
«The only note of real pessimism in the past few months
has come from Samsung, whose China CEO, Kim Young-ha, went on record in May complaining the government's austerity measures were hurting consumer demand.» On the other hand, the Chinese government has since then moved to loosen credit in order to mitigate the slowdown ; only time will tell if they can succeed in successfully manoeuvring between the Scylla of stagnation and the Charybdis of inflation....

Organic Valley, the world's largest organic farmer cooperative, says sales increased 8.5 percent last year to nearly $930 million.
The company that produces organic milk, butter, produce and other products released the figures at its annual meeting Thursday in La Crosse.
The La Crosse Tribune reports more than 500 of Organic Valley's 1,844 farmer members are attending the multi-day meeting.
Sales vice president Eric Newman says Organic Valley accounts for about 50 percent of the organic milk sales in the United States and is the top-selling organic milk in China.
But milk sales overall are declining as more people turn to almond milk and other alternatives.
Newman says the company is seeing growth in other products, such as butter, cheese and vegetables.

Rated 3.4 out of 5 by 360 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Frequent99 Better Than Expected I travel a lot to Philadelphia and stay generall at the downtown Sheraton on Dock Street. I was stuck at this hotel due to the flight cancellations to Buffalo (84" snow storm!!) This Sheraton turned out to be better than expected. Excellent staff, reasonable pricing and great service. The airport shuttle service was a bonus. The room was like a suite with two TVs and a fridge. The microwave was by the ice machine. Nice clean and everything in good working condition. I recommend this hotel to all. November 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Tuesday1960 Really Lovely very cozy When I arrived at the Sheraton, The desk clerk was very pleasant. The room was very nice. We went down to order food from Relish and the staff was simple beautiful. I had a great time. I really look forward to coming again. November 24, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Twinn2013 One of the Worst Housekeeping staffs in Sheraton property! I asked one of the housekeeping staff in my floor (SPG floor) for 2 towels, she said NO and give me bad attitude. She mentioned that I need to call guest services to request towels and she insist that she can not give the towels to me at that moment. I stayed with numerous Sheraton properties all over US, this Sheraton is Ridiculous and a joke. This Sheraton need better new Management, from the month of October 2013 until January 2014, constantly receive low rating about poor customer service. January 10, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by Genetics Very Poorly Operated and Dirty Staff was horrible, did not respond to requests and had to call several times to get an internet cable, was told I would just have to use internet in lobby even though I was staying at the hotel to work and needed it in my room. Very unprofessional. Did not call a cab when I asked them to schedule on, took an hour to get a cab. Food is overpriced and not very good. The elevators were filthy, floors in hotel were dirty. The room was fairly clean and as with most sheraton hotels the bed was very comfortable. This hotel has the potential to be 4 star like many other sheraton hotels but is operated worse than a 1/2 star hostel. December 11, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Cosmo64 Meeting your Needs and Comforts The front desk upon arrival were welcoming, affable and efficient. The hotel design is very spacious and open. Ideal for meetings and conferences given its close proximity to the airport. The hotel room was very commodious, well-equipped and stylish in design making you feel restful and easy to negotiate. Highly recommend as a place to vacation or stay for a meeting or conference. November 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by spingal This Hotel is so cozy What a great hotel! The beds are so comforable and the staff were excellent. November 13, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Barbara501 Day Manager to the Rescue We had multiple reservation glitches upon arrival at the Four Points Sheraton at 2AM. Thanks to the Day Manager our problems were acknowledged and resolved. November 4, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by traveler22 Not for the Business Traveler Not impressed with lack of Restaurant/Bar staff. No concern about customers. No Wireless service in rooms, only on first floor in the Bar/lounge area. Daily Parking fee, requiring daily "ticket stamping" at front desk for parking ticket. Malfunctioning ticket machine at Gate. No duplicate receipts provided to Business customers - had to ask front desk upon departure. Not for the Business traveler.... November 21, 2011

As symptoms of Erb's palsy are observed in a newborn baby, a parent may worry about the long-term implications for their child. It is helpful for Florida parents to understand that most newborns diagnosed with this condition recover without much special treatment. Frequent examination by a doctor is important to evaluate recovery of the nerves. This process can be slow due to the rate at which nerves typically grow.
The most common treatment used for Erb's palsy patients is daily physical therapy. An affected arm may be difficult for a baby to move, making it important for parents to help in keeping muscles and joints functioning and fit. Instruction in proper exercises is provided so that a parent can continue to work with their child multiple times per day to maintain the range of motion in the affected limb.

I see your Gabriel Agbonlahor and raise you one Wes Brown…
Dip in to scour the latest Deadline Day titbits...
Shit Lookalikes: Does exactly what it says on the tin. As far as we're concerned, when it comes to footballing lookalikes; the shitter the better!
I see your Gabriel Agbonlahor and raise you one Wes Brown…
Cheers to Chris Wright for this lookalike.
We are not comparing Wigan boss Chris Hutchings to one of history's greatest monsters in any capacity other than this mildly amusing pose, although JJB Stadium regulars mights testify that the pair share a philosophy on torture!
Thanks to, er, me, for spotting this Shit Lookalike. New Chelski boss Avram and Boss Nass, who appeared in tragically rubbish Star Wars prequel, The Phantom Menace, could be long-lost brothers, no? Incidentally, Boss Nass was voiced by the great Brian Blessed, which is by far the most interesting thing about him. I've just noticed […]
Thanks to Stacy S for sending in this top quality Shit Lookalike. One's a bald-headed goon who is part of a dysfunctional family… and the other – you've guessed it – is Uncle Fester (groan).
This has to be one of my favourite Shit Lookalikes for a while, so many thanks to Dave Harris (who edits his own fine Fulham blog, The Hammy End Chronicle) for sending it in. For younger readers, DeBarge is an RnB singer who was big in the 80s. If DeBarge played football, he'd also be a shoo-in for his own Horror Hair entry.
Life was a daily struggle for poor Sam The Eagle on The Muppet Show. The miserable feathered censor would be the constant figure of hatred as he tried to make a bunch of muppets put on a good show. Sounds a bit like poor Mick's job at Wolves really…
Is Michael Clarke Duncan, star of The Green Mile, how Heskey would look if he ever broke out a smile?
This is a little scary! This appears to be Chelsea legend Gianfranco Zola starring in the video to Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse of the Heart (click here if you want to put yourself through the entire video). What's the Italian for Turn around, Bright Eyes?!
Thanks to Pies reader Dave Sparks for notifying us of the glaring similarities between Portsmouth boss Harry Redknapp and the Lion from The Wizard of Oz. The pair have similar wigs and identical droopy cheeks. I always get the characters mixed up. If I recall correctly, the Tin Man was looking for a heart and the Scarecrow wanted a brain. I think the Lion was after a bung as part of Dorothy's controversial move to Emerald City.
One's a Bulgarian winger that plays for Aston Villa and the other is an 80s American teen film star – but both share a fondness for big hair and highlights
Shamon motherf*cker! Remember when Michael Jackson was still black and had most of his own facial features?
Yet another of Pies' hugely popular barrel-scraping doppelgangers series, Shit Lookalikes, for your viewing pleasure. Fulham's Anglo-Ecuadorian-Northern Irish manager Lawrie Sanchez and his new specs are a dead ringer for Anglo-Chinese Channel 4 presenter Gok Wan, star of the WAG must-watch How To Look Good Naked.
Maybe not at first glance but next time take a look at ITV sports presenter, Jim Rosenthal, and you'll see he bears an odd resemblance to Sesame Street's number loving vampire – Ah, Ah, Ah
Following our feature on footballers who rap, perhaps we should next consider footballers who look like rappers. First we showed you that El Hadji Diouf is Pharrell Williams. Now we can conclusively proove that Spurs and England midfielder Jermaine Jenas is a passable double for US hip hop star Rich Boy. Nuff respec' to Pies reader Craig for spotting this one.

Playing For Uncle Sam's Army
Jul 3, 2013, 11:00 AM EST
Writer Michael Appelgate, a 2013 graduate of DePauw University (Greencastle, Ind.), is currently an arts & entertainment writer for the Salt Lake Tribune. A native of Kent, Wash., Appelgate is a diehard Seattle sports fan and a huge fan of the Oregon Ducks basketball court.
Matt Besler used to watch highlights of Thierry Henry and David Beckham in the basement of his home in Overland Park, Kansas.
But in 2011, he played along side the two soccer legends in the MLS All–Star game. Since then he has piled on a few more top moments in his young professional career. The 2009 Notre Dame graduate and former men's soccer team standout is now a regular face on the U.S. men's national team. He's tallied five starts for the U.S after earning his first cap against Mexico, March 26, in a 0-0 draw.
Besler, 26, has started on the back line for four straight games (all wins for the U.S.), and the defense shut out the last two games against Panama and Honduras.
"It's definitely a different level because there's a lot more pressure," Besler said. "The pressure was a lot greater than anything I ever felt. The preparation is always the same. I try and stay calm and go about my business like I usually do."
Besler's soccer prowess can be traced all the way back to his high school days at Blue Valley West. The left-footer re-wrote the school's record book and claimed a 5A Kansas state title his senior year, and committed to a Notre Dame program primed for its greatest success. In Besler's sophomore year, the Fighting Irish went to the NCAA quarterfinals for the first time in its history. The next year, they did it again.
Besler said he's proud of the team today, which just copped its first No. 1 overall seed to the tournament last fall.
It's more meaningful to him because his brother Nick, now a junior, is a consistent starter in head coach Bobby Clark's midfield.
"You set the expectation high, and this group of guys who are there now, they picked up where we left off," Besler said. "They just have to continue to work hard and be the first team to make it over the hump and get to the final four and a national title."
Following his senior year where Besler received All-American honors along with his third All-BIG EAST Team distinction, he was drafted eighth overall in the MLS SuperDraft by the then-Kansas City Wizards.
"It's a blessing for me and for my family, especially my parents," he said. "They were probably more excited than I was that I got an opportunity to play back in Kansas City."
Besler made an immediate impact for the Wizards, starting all but two games in his 2009 rookie season.
Via a fan vote in 2011, he played in the MLS All-Star game. The appearance was most likely due to his ticket sales effort in the now-Sporting Kansas City front office.
The star-studded MLS lineup didn't phase Besler, who treated the game like business as usual. But after the match he said he realized how lucky he was to be playing professionally with the top players in the world like Henry and Beckham.
"You almost want to put it behind you and move on to the next game and to the next accomplishment that you're trying to get," Besler said. "Ultimately, my goal is to become one of them. I want to reach where they're at in their careers at some point, and maybe someone comes along and they're able to say they've played with me."
Last August, Besler scored a key penalty kick against the Seattle Sounders to win Kansas' first Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup. He was also named the MLS Defender of the Year. In December, he re-signed for three more years with Sporting KC.
Amidst the MLS success and international team appearances, perhaps the most special moment was when in January he anchored the U.S. team's defense with fellow Notre Dame soccer alum, Justin Morrow, in a friendly against Canada.
"Having Justin there, he was playing left back and I was playing left center back — we were playing right next to each other the whole game," Besler said. "We were very happy and proud to be representing Notre Dame during that game."
Sporting a 4-1-1 record thus far in World Cup Qualifying, Besler said the team's confidence is high riding the five-match undefeated streak.
"With Tim Howard behind us directing us and giving us a lot of information, he's been a great leader for us," Besler said. "Overall we're in a very good spot and I'm excited to continue to play with those guys."
Besler and the United States men's national team takes back to the pitch for World Cup Qualifying on Sept. 6 when they take on Costa Rica.

Celebrity NASCAR Driver Dick Trickle Backs Leslie Ghizs Proposal To Ban Nicknames
CINCINNATI-Cincinnati councilwoman Leslie Ghiz is backing a bill that would make nicknames, especially those of a derogatory and sexual nature, illegal. In recent weeks, Ghiz has appeared throughout the Cincinnati area on radio, TV, and even campaigning door to door. Backed by colleagues Sharon Semen and Mike Hunt, Ghiz is on a mission to end what she calls "malignant and inappropriate nicknaming." On Monday, Ghiz's campaign got a big lift from popular NASCAR driver, Dick Trickle. "It's just not funny," says Trickle, a 61-year-old veteran racing star. Many of Ghiz's constituents wholeheartedly agree. "We've heard it all before," says Hugh Jass of Sharonville. "People think they're funny. They're not."

The focus of the tensions, fighting and killing that resulted from the Arab uprisings, including the ongoing civil war in Syria, has moved west to north Africa.On Saturday, the Algerian army finished its attack on the terrorists who had led a four-day siege of a gas plant, killing the majority for a provisional count of 32. The number of hostages killed as of Sunday was put at a preliminary 23, according to Algerian officials.The targeted workers came from many countries, as the plant came under a coordinated attack by terrorists who had also tried to blow up a pipeline.Algerian Communication Minister Muhammad Said stated that the attackers came from various countries and included only three Algerians.They entered from neighboring countries, according to DPA."We have indications that they originated from northern Mali," a senior official was quoted as saying by The New York Times.An Algerian al-Qaida-linked jihadist, Mokhtar Belmokhtar, who is based in Mali, has claimed responsibility through spokesmen and is blamed by Algerians for planning the attack, according to the report in the Times.His spokesmen claim the Algerian assault was in response to France's attack against Islamists in Mali.Harold Rhode, a distinguished senior fellow at the Gatestone Institute and a former official at the US Department of Defense, interprets the events in that "the French are putting up a valiant fight, but in the Middle East you fight to win.""The bottom line is... that Middle Eastern culture sees inaction or verbal excuses as weakness, and when they see that they pounce – they hit big time."Rhode goes on to say that in order to understand the Muslim mentality, it helps to go back and look at the writings of Muslim theologian Ibn Hazm, who explained the Muslim concept of war in his work The Book of Morals and Conduct: "The measure of prudence and resolution is to know a friend from an enemy; the height of stupidity and weakness is not to know an enemy from a friend."Rhode implies that this is what is going on in the region."If you negotiate before victory they see this as weakness, and this is how the US is seen concerning Syria, Iran, and in North Africa. And America is what matters. And by not doing anything and saying, 'let us reason together' before victory – is basically saying I don't have the will or ability to do what is necessary to win."Algeria has historically been tough on terrorists, and their failure to coordinate their response to the attack has irked allies. Algerian officers have trained with the US military and the governments share intelligence to fight against al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), according to a report by Eli Lake in the Daily Beast.But the countries do not have nearly as strong a relationship as those of other countries in the region. Lake reported that Algeria has not accepted large defense aid packages like those of Morocco or Egypt, and instead gets most of its arms from Moscow.Bruce Maddy-Weitzman, a research fellow at the Dayan Center for Middle Eastern and African Studies at Tel Aviv University, says that "Algerians have been dealing with Islamic groups for more than 20 years." The 1990s civil war left behind a "residual group of Islamic radicals," which "at some point re-branded itself into the AQIM."If the attack on Algeria can be traced back to an international array of Islamist radicals based in Mali, then it is necessary to understand how northern Mali recently became taken over by Islamists, with roots going back to the war in Libya.The conflict in Mali began in January 2012 with various groups fighting for autonomy in the north of the country.Later in the spring of 2012, the National Movement for the Liberation of Azawad declared an independent state named Azawad, which remains unrecognized by the international community.It comprises more than half the territory of the Mali state.The Mali government eventually called for help as the Islamists began taking over more of the country, and France decided to intervene to stop their advance. Reuters reports that Paris currently has 2,000 troops in the country, with its war planes pounding rebel positions for the past 10 days.Belmokhtar has said that he would be ready "to negotiate with the West and the Algerian government, provided they stop their bombing of Mali's Muslims."Maddy-Weitzman explains that the "Libya events brought a number of well-armed Tuareg back to Mali, and some of them were Islamists, while others were Tuareg nationalists." It was the "Libyan events that triggered a swing in the balance of power" and allowed for these Islamic radicals to slip into Mali.We are now seeing the "blow back into Algeria." Tunis Afrique Presse reported at the end of last week that the attackers had demanded safe passage to Libya, but Algeria refused to negotiate. It is likely they wanted to go to Libya because the country remains unstable, divided into zones of influence by various tribes and other groups.Maddy-Weitzman indicates Libya would be a good place to go "for terrorists looking to disappear, where the central authority is weak. And in addition, it is next door."In regard to whether the issue of ethnic and cultural divisions could be part of the picture, Maddy-Weitzman agrees that it could, saying the divisions are part of the internal power struggles, but the overall motivation is that of the Islamic radicals.What seems to be evident is that the West created a vacuum in Libya where weapons, tribes, militias and radicals were mixed together in disarray, without a well-thought out plan on how to deal with the aftermath of the conflict.This seems to be the broken record playing throughout the region from the Iraq invasion, to Afghanistan, and perhaps next in Syria – that the desire to "rebuild" is not stronger than the local currents, which are ultimately more important in determining events on the ground.

Station: 4th Avenue (Crosstown Line)
From nycsubway.org
|IND Crosstown Line
Opened: 7/1/1933
Transfer here to: BMT 4th Avenue Line
Local station with four tracks and two side platforms. This station is elevated along a viaduct. The station is more or less level but it enters at its south end the tunnel into the hillside of Park Slope. The downtown express track in the station has a concrete bed, not the ballast and tie bed of the other tracks on this viaduct. This better resists drips and spills from the GG train when it sleeps here between runs.
West (or north) of this station is a stub-end reversing spur entered only from this station. It is level, between the two express tracks, while the rest of the line ramps up toward Smith-9th Street. Trains are rarely, if ever, stored here.
The station has a crew quarters/offices structure over both platforms which is constructed of brick with evidence of covered/removed windows.
The mezzanine has light green accent tile with the main tile being ivory colored. On the Coney Island-bound mezzanine we overlook the street level which features stores outside the fare control. There is a painted-over mosaic reading "To Coney Island" in the mezzanine, and a mosaic "To Manhattan" is still visible. Inasmuch as the line never went to Coney Island when it was first built, the "To Coney Island" mosaic is puzzling. Was it added after the line tied into the BMT Culver line? Was it an anticipatory sign for a future prolongation to Coney Island (like some "To the Rockaways" mosaics along Queens Boulevard)? Not sure.
Due to the layout at the BMT 9th Street station, different stairs must be used to transfer to Manhattan and Coney Island BMT trains.

FRIDAY, Dec. 28 (HealthDay News) -- Proteins present in urine exhibit excellent diagnostic performance for Kawasaki disease, according to a study published online Dec. 20 in EMBO Molecular Medicine.
Alex Kentsis, M.D., Ph.D., from Harvard Medical School in Boston, and colleagues used high-accuracy mass spectrometry proteomics to analyze proteins present in the urine of six patients with Kawasaki disease, six patients without Kawasaki disease, and three patients with Kawasaki disease who had completely responded to treatment.
The researchers identified 2,131 unique proteins. Of these, more than 190 were unique to patients with untreated Kawasaki disease and included markers of endothelial and myocardial cell injury and immune regulators. In particular, filamin C and meprin A were significantly elevated in both serum and urine of 236 patients with Kawasaki disease from two independent cohorts. In 107 patients with suspected Kawasaki disease, these two markers were able to diagnose the disease more accurately than current markers, with receiver operating characteristic areas under the curve of 0.98. In a mouse model of Kawasaki disease, meprin A was enriched in the coronary artery lesions.
"In all, urine proteome profiles revealed novel candidate molecular markers of Kawasaki disease, including filamin C and meprin A, that exhibit excellent diagnostic performance," Kentsis and colleagues conclude. "These disease markers may improve the diagnostic accuracy of clinical evaluations of children with suspected Kawasaki disease, lead to the identification of novel therapeutic targets, and allow the development of a biologic classification of Kawasaki disease."

Bold 9000 and 9700 RIM's Bold 9700 (right) and the old Bold 9000 Manufacturer Research in Motion unveiled the Bold 9000's follow-up yesterday, but as far as a UK launch date goes said only that it would be released at …

I don't get the Blackberry thing
I have a 9000 Bold as a company phone. It sucks. I hate the thing. I really don't get what all the fuss is about with Blackberrys. My Treo 680 personal phone is far more usable and versatile (wifi excepted) and I prefer it by far.
As the 9700 is a point upgrade I think I'll pass on this one thanks!

Pulmonary Disease: All about COPD
Pulmonary Disease: What is COPD?
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a term used to describe chronic lung diseases that causes obstructions in lung airflow. The three types of lung diseases are chronic bronchitis, chronic asthma and emphysema.
• Chronic bronchitis - In chronic bronchitis, the narrowing and obstruction of the airways is due to the inflammation and swelling of the lining of the airways. This inflammation can also stimulate additional production of mucous, which can cause more obstruction. Obstruction caused due to mucous, increases the likelihood of bacterial lung infections as well. It is also commonly known as 'daily cough'.
• Emphysema - In emphysema, there occurs a permanent widening of the alveoli due to the destruction of the walls between alveoli. This destruction reduces the elasticity of the lungs, which further obstruct airflow out of the alveoli due to the damage done to the bronchioles. Due to the lack of elasticity, air gets trapped in the alveoli and it decreases the ability of the lung to shrink during exhalation. This extra trapped air reduces the amount of air which has to be taken in during the next breathe. This trapped air can also prevent the nearby lung tissues from functioning to its fullest capacity.
• Chronic asthma - In chronic asthma, obstruction of the flow in the air is caused due to the inflammation of the airways and spasm of muscles surrounding the airways. This inflammation also causes thickening of the walls of the airways. The inflammation can be seen in various inflammatory cells and mediators.
