Military Life Compared to Hog Life
A Georgia Civil War soldier writing home to his brother described military life using a barnyard comparison.
"…Well, George, you ought to be here with us to help us live hog-fashion. We eat and sleep hog-fashioned, but we are getting very accustomed to it, though we are living like a king [compared] to what we done in Kentucky. We sometimes had to eat parched corn and broiled beef, but it ate mighty good after we got used to it. …"

`Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has been in the news a good amount since she was first chosen to be Senator John McCain's vice presidential running mate back in the 2008 elections. The coverage of Palin was not always good. Her initial interviews at the time left people scratching their heads. Her responses were sometimes cryptic, evasive and just strange. Palin did manage to drum up support from a large base of people who enjoyed her inflammatory rhetoric about how the country was declining and then-Senator Obama was a secret terrorist bent on destroying the United States.
Palin's bizarre behavior continued long after the election ended when she returned to a civilian life in Alaska. Many thought Palin would be the standard-bearer for the Republican Party since she drew such large crowds. This turned out not to be the case as she gave one rambling speech after another that even Conservative pundits who previously praised her had to back away from quickly. This happened on top of some high-profile family problems with her daughter and sons. The very odd mannerisms and speeches that Palin gave made her a ready target for comedians. The single most famous parody of Sarah Palin came from comedian Tina Fey on Saturday Night Live.
Fey has a strong resemblance to Palin. She also managed to get the tortured speech patterns of the former governor down perfectly. This resulted in a performance that was so convincing some of what Fey said was parroted in the public as being something Palin actually said. Even Fox News used pictures of Tina Fey by mistake when talking about Palin. Most people thought the days of those impressions were over when Palin slowly started to recede into the background. This was not the case. Sarah Palin recently endorsed Donald Trump to be the Republican presidential nominee.
The speech was exactly what most people expected from Palin. She took to the stage with prepared remarks that were over-the-top, bombastic and cringe worthy at points. Palin seemed to have a special love of creating singsong sentences that awkwardly rhymed. She even appears to have made up some words along the way. Palin managed to word things so badly that at one point she inadvertently claimed Trump was "known for being able to command, fire!"
Even people who do not follow politics were aware of the rambling, almost incoherent speech. This is why everyone smiled when the cold open to Saturday Night Live featured a recreation of the endorsement. Tina Fey took up the role of Sarah Palin again. Fey showed she had lost none of her talent or sharp humor when she did. Fey launched into the speech exaggerating some of the phrases and doing an excellent job of capturing the essence of Palin in that moment. The skit included some side commentary from an actor portraying Donald Trump where he slowly realizes that Palin might be insane. The routine lasted just over five minutes.
It is well worth watching for a laugh. What some audience members might not have realized is that quite a few sentences in the routine were lifted directly from the speech. This is especially true of the "right-winging, bitter-clinging, proud clingers" comment that has now become famous. The real Donald Trump during the actual endorsement speech stood quietly to the side of Palin. He made some odd faces and looked uncomfortable at times. He did not say anything at the time, however. Trump even offered Palin a place in his administration if elected. Tina Fey continues to shine in her comedy even when reviving the role of someone like Palin from the past.

Instrumental Interaction in Multisurface EnvironmentsSpeaker: Michel Beaudouin-Lafon – Orsay Cedex, France
Topic(s): Human Computer Interaction
Today's user interfaces are based on the desktop metaphor and the principles of direct manipulation that were created more than 25 years ago. With the diversity of hardware platforms, contexts of use and types of information that we face today, this paradigm clearly shows its limits. I introduced Instrumental Interaction over fifteen years ago to address some of these issues. Based on the observation that humans create and use tools in the real world to manipulate and interact with physical objects and materials, I created a conceptual model that decouples information substrates from the tools used to interact with them. More recently, this model was extended to address environments where groups of users interact with multiple input-output surfaces such as wall-sized displays, multitouch tables and smartphones. In this talk I describe and illustrate the principles and applications of instrumental interaction, in particular in the context of our WILD multisurface environment (http://www.lri.fr/~mbl/WILD). I show how it challenges the notion of application and opens the door to more flexible interactive software that can be tailored to the needs of its users.

Damsel in this Dress Corsets
$50 BIN SALE-Normally $109-Wench Corset in Neapolitan Stripe
*This is the most revised, most refined, longest living corset pattern in my shop! I have poured countless hours of thought, sewing, real live market testing, and proto-typing into this simple, classic underbust corset! It universally fits and flatters almost every shape, and it's truly sensational as a layering piece, a corset to wear with muggle clothing, and a piece that will stand the test of time and keep going and going!
*Please keep in mind that if we don't have the exact size you want for your waist, I DO offer alterations on all of my products. You can find the different types in our "Alterations and Repairs" section. We can only alter things DOWN, not up, but it can be very handy! This allows you to customize the fit for YOUR body without the custom order price or the custom order time wait of 6-8 weeks. What a wonderful bonus that sets up apart from other companies!!
*We give a size measurement "range" because we know that these have a little bit of wiggle room as far as fit. The lower number on the range is the measurement of the actual corset itself, pulled taut like it would be on a body. The other numbers allow for a gap in the lacings. *(e.g. a 32-34" would measure 32 inches and have a 1 inch gap on a 33 waist and a 2 inch gap on a 34 waist!)

Steven Gerrard's Glasgow Rangers are the top scorers in the SPFL this season with 15 goals scored in three wins, two draws and only one loss all season.
Nine goals in the last two matches have seen Rangers overtake Hearts in the scoring charts by four goals, but not on points earned. Celtic have only scored six goals in six games.
The form shown by Rangers continued with a 5-1 hammering of St Johnstone to move into second place. It should have been 5-0 due to another bad referee awarding a penalty.
Glasgow Celtic have slipped down the table dramatically after only winning one point from their last two league games against lowly St Mirren (0-0) and the 2-1 defeat at Kilmarnock.
Celtic struggled to beat Rosenborg 1-0 last Thursday in the Europa group stage, having beaten them 3-1 earlier in the season at home in the Champions League.
Nobody can deny that Celtic are having a bad start to their current campaign, but as the season unfolds, they will probably still finish in the top two this year along with Rangers.
Rangers are now five points behind Hearts, Celtic are six and both clubs will eventually overtake them, it is only a matter of time.
The Ibrox club showed no hangover from their impressive 2-2 draw at Villarreal in the Europa group game on Thursday, in an extremely one-sided tie against St Johnstone.
Captain James Tavernier curled home a wonderful free-kick to open the scoring before Alfredo Morelos doubled the lead before half time, to put Rangers in easy street.
Scott Arfield, substitute Kyle Lafferty and Daniel Candeias also scored after the break, and Blair Alston scored a consolation for the Saints from a ridiculously soft penalty.
Rangers team: McGregor: Tavernier, Goldson, Katic, Flanagan: McCrorie, Coulibaly, Arfield: Candeias, Morelos, Kent:
Subs used: Grezda, Lafferty and Dorrans

Customer Reviews
While I will say that the teacher manual is great, because it tells the teacher exactly what to say and ask, I cannot say that we love this one. My child is able to memorize some of the poems, which really surprised me and made me proud! but we cannot always deal with all the repeating of phrases, language rules, etc. We are sticking with it, because the child is learning, but Its kind of dull.
My daughter enjoys these lessons, they are easy for her. She enjoys making silly songs for memorization.
I like how it is loaded with content and instructs exactly what to say; but the lessons are dull for my not so enthused to learn 4th grader. The pages are loaded with text, no color or pictures.
Easy to follow
Having tried several different programs in recent years, my son and I have liked this one the best. I love that it incorporates dictation, narration, and poetry memorization with the grammar lessons. What some see as a drawback (a scripted teacher's book) has been a plus for us. My son loves that elbow to elbow time during the course of the school day. And the course is very thorough, without being at all overwhelming for me or my often reluctant son.

Brushing your teeth offers a simple way to remove plaque from your teeth, but brushing too often or not often enough can cause problems. Dr. Edward Yates, your Norwich, CT dentist, explains how often you should brush.
Why is brushing important?
Plaque, a colorless, sticky film that contains bacteria, constantly builds up on your teeth. The sugars in the foods you eat combine with the bacteria in plaque to produce acids. These acids cause bad breath and attack your tooth enamel, creating cavities. Brushing your teeth removes plaque and reduces your cavity risk.
Should I brush once a day, twice a day or eight times a day?
If plaque isn't removed promptly, it will eventually turn into a hard deposit called tartar that can cause gum disease. Tartar irritates your gums and can even cause them to pull away from your teeth. The spaces that form around your teeth when your gums begin to pull away are called pockets. When bacteria begins to grow in the pockets, your risk of bone or tooth loss increases. Once tartar forms on your teeth, the only way to remove it is with the special cleaning instruments your Norwich dentist uses.
Fortunately, brushing offers a simple way to avoid this unpleasant scenario. Brushing your teeth twice a day is very effective at removing plaque before it can turn into tartar. Although it might seem as if the more you brush the better, brushing too often can actually damage your tooth enamel and may even cause your gums to recede, in some cases. The problem is more likely to occur if you brush frequently and don't use a soft-bristled brush, or don't replace your toothbrush often. No matter what type of brush you use, if the bristles are frayed or flattened, the brush has become too abrasive and should be replaced.
How should I brush?
For best results, hold your toothbrush at a 45 degree and clean your teeth in short strokes no longer than the width of one tooth. Brush for at least two minutes to ensure that you've cleaned every nook and cranny. Floss at least once each day to remove plaque and food particles from the spaces between teeth.
Daily brushing and regular dental cleanings help you avoid cavities. If it's time for your next cleaning, call Dr. Yates, your Norwich, CT dentist, at (860) 889-6445 to schedule an appointment.
Want to know the exact wrong way to pry open a stubborn lid? Just ask Jimmy Fallon, host of NBC-TV's popular "Tonight Show." When the 40-year-old funnyman had trouble opening a tube of scar tissue repair gel with his hands, he decided to try using his teeth.
What happened next wasn't funny: Attempting to remove the cap, Fallon chipped his front tooth, adding another medical problem to the serious finger injury he suffered a few weeks before (the same wound he was trying to take care of with the gel). If there's a moral to this story, it might be this: Use the right tool for the job… and that tool isn't your teeth!
Yet Fallon is hardly alone in his dilemma. According to the American Association of Endodontists, chipped teeth account for the majority of dental injuries. Fortunately, modern dentistry offers a number of great ways to restore damaged teeth.
If the chip is relatively small, it's often possible to fix it with cosmetic bonding. In this procedure, tough, natural-looking resin is used to fill in the part of the tooth that has been lost. Built up layer by layer, the composite resin is cured with a special light until it's hard, shiny… and difficult to tell from your natural teeth. Best of all, cosmetic bonding can often be done in one office visit, with little or no discomfort. It can last for up to ten years, so it's great for kids who may be getting more permanent repairs later.
For larger chips or cracks, veneers or crowns may be suggested. Veneers are wafer-thin porcelain coverings that go over the entire front surface of one or more teeth. They can be used to repair minor to moderate defects, such as chips, discolorations, or spacing irregularities. They can also give you the "Hollywood white" smile you've seen on many celebrities.
Veneers are generally custom-made in a lab, and require more than one office visit. Because a small amount of tooth structure must be removed in order to put them in place, veneers are considered an irreversible treatment. But durable and long-lasting veneers are the restorations of choice for many people.
Crowns (also called caps) are used when even more of the tooth structure is missing. They can replace the entire visible part of the tooth, as long as the tooth's roots remain viable. Crowns, like veneers, are custom-fabricated to match your teeth in size, shape and color; they are generally made in a dental lab and require more than one office visit. However, teeth restored with crowns function well, look natural, and can last for many years.
So what happened to Jimmy Fallon? We aren't sure which restoration he received… but we do know that he was back on TV the same night, flashing a big smile.
If you would like more information about tooth restorations, please contact us or schedule a consultation. You can learn more in the Dear Doctor magazine articles "Porcelain Crowns & Veneers" and "Artistic Repair Of Front Teeth With Composite Resin."
Your tooth is in peril if its innermost layer, the pulp, becomes infected and inflamed. Deep tooth decay, repeated dental procedures or fractures can all expose the pulp and ultimately the roots to infection and lead to tooth loss.
But that scenario isn't inevitable — we can often save the tooth with a root canal treatment. By accessing the tooth's interior through a prepared hole, we're able to clean out the infected tissue in the pulp chamber and root canals, and fill the empty space with a special filling. We then cap the tooth with a custom crown to protect it from a re-infection.
Root canal treatments have a very high success rate — chances are good your tooth will survive for many years afterward. But there's a slight chance the tooth may become re-infected; in that case, a second root canal treatment may be in order.
In a few cases, though, a second root canal may not be advisable, and could even accelerate damage to the tooth. For example, if past dental work resulted in an extensive crown restoration, accessing the root canals the conventional way will require disassembling that restoration. This could weaken the tooth significantly.
We can approach the problem from a different route: instead of accessing the tooth's interior through the crown (the visible part of the tooth), we instead perform a surgical procedure called an apicoectomy, which accesses the tooth at the root end through the gums.
In this procedure we numb the area with local anesthesia and then make a small incision through the gums at the level of the affected root. After access, we remove any diseased tissue around the root and a few millimeters of the root tip itself. We then insert a small filling in its place to seal the canal and prevent further infection. In some cases we may also insert a graft to encourage bone growth and aid in healing.
Over time, the affected area will heal and return to normal function. Even if a traditional root canal treatment can't be used, an apicoectomy could be another option for saving your tooth.
If you would like more information on your options for preserving a problem tooth, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Apicoectomy."

THIS IS A TOTAL SCAM!! I ordered two outdoor patio sets and an office chair. It never showed any tracking info after claiming it was shipped, and a month later has yet to arrive, multiple emails
inquiring about my order have been met with zero response. When I attempted to check on the status of my order again today (which has said the same thing since day one) the whole site and page is
mysteriously down.
I personally assumed since day 1 that this deal was due to the owner doing a drop ship....NOPE... it's a SCAM, folks. Don't do it!

I too should have done more research before ordering. Thankfully I'm only out 40.00 instead of the more than 150.00 I had initially planned to order. I have now contacted my credit card company to see what I can do towards getting my money back. Figured the items were from China bit this is pathetic.

Instagram has rapidly become my favorite social media platform. I've always been a very visual person and Instagram truly gives you all the tools you need to get your story out there. With 600 million monthly active users and a 100 million user jump in the last six months, it is one of the biggest social media platforms .The jump in users is mostly due to their newest addition of Instagram Stories. My nightly routine is to put my kids to bed, pour myself a glass of wine and watch what everyone has been up to all day. My favorites to watch are always mompreneurs, it gives me that kick in the butt I need to push harder every day with my own business.
So I have rounded up my top 5 mom Instagrammers I think you should be following as well!
1. Jillian Harris @jillian.harris
You may recognize this lady from Love It Or List It Vancouver as well as The Bachelor and The Bachelorette! Back in August of 2016 Jillian and her fiance welcomed a little baby boy named Leo and he is just so sweet! I love watching her Instagram stories because she has the right balance of everything. Mom life ( of course) but also showing off her home renovations, on set on Love It Or List it and having fun with her family, friends, and Nacho. She is also great for some laughs and some beautifully styled photos as well!
2. Cat & Nat @catandnat
These two mamas have a huge following, especially on Facebook and Instagram for their #momtruth videos. You know the ones, with them sitting in their car saying exactly what we are all thinking but too scared to say out loud. Needless to say, their Instagram stories are just as funny and entertaining as those videos. The two of them share the account so you get to do what each one of them is doing with their day. From their Facebook live videos that they shoot every day at noon to getting on a private jet with one of the Real Housewives Of Toronto. There is never a dull moment with these ladies, so if you are looking for some fun with some #momtruths splashed in, check them out!
3. Martine Bernier @martineforget
Anyone who is a fan of the show Hockey Wives( me!) will recognize Martine right away. Her hubby Johnathan Bernier was the goalie for the Toronto Maple Leafs but was recently traded to the Anaheim Ducks. These days her Instagram stories and feed are filled with days spent at beautiful beaches, visits to Disneyland with her little boy Tyler and of course her husband's hockey games. As a huge hockey fan myself I love every aspect of her account ( even if the Oilers deserve 1st place haha). Even though she isn't modeling as much as she used to, it's fun to get a sneak peak into the life of a hockey wife.
4. Jennifer Wilson @vonbonapparel
Jennifer Wilson is the mama behind Vonbon Apparel. A beautifully designed ( and gorgeous) clothing company established in Vancouver BC. She is the quintessential "mompreneur", running an extremely successful business all with baby in tow. Her feed is a mix of editorial photos of her clothing line but also of her everyday life as a parent. As for her Instagram stories, she often shows her busy life of running a business. Schlepping her littlest babe with her to her store front shop or squeezing in a business meeting while he has a snooze. Watching her feed makes me feel like you truly can have it all, as an entrepreneur and a mother.
5. Lori Godin @lorigodin
If you're a mom in Edmonton, I guarantee you have heard of this fabulous blogger. She is the woman behind Frugal Edmonton Mama, Raising Edmonton, Yeg Date Night and more recently This Big Adventure! I certainly follow all of her Instagram accounts but this one by far is my favorite to tune into. She shows the real deal of what it's like being a WAHM, and it's no easy feat (trust me). How this lady can pull off being a mom to three little girls and putting out such marvelous content is beyond me. That is why I love to watch her Instagram stories, you get an insight into her day to day life. It gives me the kick in the butt I need to stop making excuses and get some work done! We are so lucky to have a local superstar like Lori! If you aren't following her already, I highly recommend you do!
This is just a drop in the bucket of amazing mamas on Instagram! Who are you favorites to follow? Let me know in the comments down below!

As a bathtub lined with white porcelain,
When the hot water gives out or goes tepid,
So is the slow cooling of our chivalrous passion,
O my much praised but-not-altogether-satisfactory lady.
As a bathtub lined with white porcelain,
When the hot water gives out or goes tepid,
So is the slow cooling of our chivalrous passion,
O my much praised but-not-altogether-satisfactory lady.
this poem was a medium of criticism of traditional romantic poems, that would describe a rose or a "snow-white" skin. instead, pound uses a bath tub, an element every reader can relate to and visualize itself inside it. beautiful poem!!
The poem shows the temporary state of love as the warmth of a bath fades so does the love of a lady. Be it famliarity or time itself with death fades as the warm bath.
Ezra Pound is one of the greatest image-makers in English poetry . The depth and intensity of the pivotal image remains in the bath-tub .The hot water , the cold water , and the tub , suggest the warmth of passion , decay of passion , and the medium of enjoying the those two . The image of the lady relates to the temptation of life .
when i read this poem i want to puke in a bathtub and jump in and scub myself down. with puke.
its a good poem i wish i could take a bath to but we have no water soo i love ur poem later!!!!
One thing about reading Pound… He always gets right to the point. No fluffy beating around the bush, no trying to entangle the reader in words that sound intriguing with very little weight. This man is strong.
hmmm…i came to the board hoping to find an insight on this poem, and all i found was….kenneth. someone smart needs to post!
when i read this poem it made me want to go into my bedroom and takea big poopie. I LOVE IT

Downtown Links Work Could Start on St. Mary's in October
June 27, 2012
Behind the scenes, the Downtown Links road corridor project is moving ahead and by October construction could be underway on St. Mary's Road/6th Street near Interstate 10.
Downtown Links is the roadway that will connect the Barraza-Aviation Parkway to Interstate 10 via a roadway along the railroad track that will tie into 6th Street and St. Mary's.
"The City of Tucson Department of Transportation is very close to going out to bid for the St. Mary's improvements from I-10 to Church Avenue," Tucson Department of Transportation Project Manager Tom Fisher wrote in a letter to Downtown Links partners. "Our target month for selecting a contractor is September with construction to begin within the following few weeks.
"This project will take approximately 12 to 15 months to complete depending on site conditions. We will keep you posted when the contractor has been selected and we are ready to schedule a pre-construction meeting.
"Last week, the RTA Board approved additional funding to continue design of the remaining segments of the corridor from Church to Broadway. We will be coordinating with HDR Engineering and other members of our project team to initiate the design process once again. We anticipate meeting with the Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) in late July or early August to review the whole project and focus on the next tasks."
Fischer also welcomed two new businesses at 6th Avenue and 7th Street, EXO Roast Company and Old Market Inn Tile Shop.
"We welcome these two new businesses to the Downtown Links/Historic Warehouse District redevelopment area," Fisher wrote. "Please stop by to meet the owners, have some fresh-roasted coffee, and buy some hand-made tiles. And Miller's Surplus would appreciate your business too. This street corner is coming alive!"

Relapse Prevention
Even after the physical dependence on alcohols has been removed, the emotional and mental aspects to alcohol addiction can still cause a relapse. Although it can seem like the alcohols are no longer an issue if you haven't used for a while, learning about relapse prevention strategies is important if you want to avoid falling into your old habits. Most alcohol rehab centres consider relapses a potentially serious issue and will teach users to focus on avoiding relapse in the future.
Understand that there are several stages to a relapse. It isn't just a flash of desire that takes control unexpectedly; it builds up over time and eventually leads people back to the substance. The three stages can be simply classified as emotional, mental and physical relapse, and the first two are vital to relapse prevention. Stopping the feelings which lead to relapse when they first arise is better than letting them continue and gain power.
The initial stage of relapse is emotional. In this stage, the person doesn't explicitly think about their addiction, but they are subconsciously being set up for a relapse. Feelings of anger, anxiety, isolation and defensiveness are mixed with neglect of eating and sleeping. The person will also avoid meetings which help them fight addiction and other forms of help. This combination makes it more likely they will turn back to alcohols in the future.
The next stage is mental relapse. This involves slipping back into a "alcohol user" frame of mind, with a focus on past use. The person will glamorise their past use, think about situations and times in which they've used, the friends they used with and start to plan for a relapse consciously. This may seem an easy stage for relapse prevention, because the issue is being indentified directly, but the emotional stage that preceded it can make it difficult to want to change. The final stage, physical relapse, involves actively seeking alcohols, and if the relapse gets to this point it is very difficult to prevent.
The most important technique for relapse prevention is identifying the pre-cursors from the steps above. After going through a comprehensive alcohol rehab program, you should understand the factors which lead to your alcohol use and be prepared for the difficult process ahead. Stay vigilant and don't feel as if your addiction is "cured" as a result of any actions you've taken. When you become addicted to alcohols, connections form between different elements in your life and your use, and these elements will always push you towards alcohols. However, the impact will be reduced as your sobriety continues.
If you find that you are suffering from the emotional symptoms of alcohol relapse, you should focus on other ways to deal with them. Continue to take care of yourself, find ways to reduce your stress levels and be willing to ask for help. You should start meditating or going for walks to relax and feel better. Then you will avoid fantasising about your alcohol use. Alcohols become an easy route out of your problems, and this leads to physical relapse.
If you find yourself fantasising about your alcohol use, you have to follow the story through to the end. You may have found that alcohols provided relief from day-to-day anxieties or stresses, but they also have a dark side which caused you to stop taking them originally. If you start taking alcohols again, the entire story will repeat, with both the positive and negative aspects. Taking things one step at a time is an important technique in relapse prevention. You shouldn't be trying to stay clean "forever," instead, try to stay clean for a month, a week, a day or even the next hour. When you've succeeded, start again. It'll get easier every time through.
Get in touch with us if you're having problems dealing with relapse prevention. We provide free advice on the different alcohol rehab facilities available and can help with a wide range of issues. We can help you with additional strategies for relapse prevention, and provide telephone counselling, for a small fee. Relapse prevention is one of the most challenging aspects of tackling addiction, and you shouldn't face it alone.

08 February, 2013
The president delivered his statement, saying that proposals put forward in last year's fiscal cliff negotiations "are still very much on the table" before losing his train of thought. "What's up, cameramen?" Obama asked. "Come on, guys. They're breaking my flow all the time." He paused to let them settle down before continuing his speech and ultimately was able to finish his point.

Scientific Profile
The graduate training group PULMOSENS is dedicated to an interdisciplinary research, supported by scientists in medicine, physics, chemistry and the engineering sciences, towards the development of innovative sensory and imaging methods which solve the complex problems in the measurement and monitoring of pulmonary epithelial functions and pathological lung changes.
The lung as a organ, its basic understanding as well as its modeling and monitoring its pathological changes has a significant medical and socio-economic background. At the same time, the lung imposes a severe challenge for any measurement system due to its specific structural and functional features - in particular to be mentioned is the lack of a direct sensory access to the lower respiratory tract as well as the unique air-liquid interface (ALI).
PULMOSENS conducts four complementary, thematically related research tracks, each of which has a challenge from the life sciences and in which new targeted sensor methods are developed. The medical questions focus on studying the individual cell, the epithelium, an artificial alveoli system as well as the organ.
The four central projects of PULMOSENS
- Secretion, in particular the mechanisms of surfactant secretion studied in type II pneumocytes
- Transepithelial transport, where the barrier function of the epithelium of the unique air-liquid interface (ALI) is analyzed
- Mechanically induced signaling cascades in the Alveolus, where the interaction of individual cell types of the epithelial and endothelial layer will be investigated in an artifical alveoli system
- Model verification and analysis of lung injury based on gas and blood analysis, in order to macroscopically evaluate the modeling and the bidirectional gas / liquid transport.
Overall, the interdisciplinary, cross-project research on these four central projects of PULMOSENS opens the opportunity to develop multimodal sensor systems that are optimally adapted to the geometric and physiologically unique conditions in the lower airways. The research is lead by experts from complementary fields such as molecular biology, physiology, experimental lung research, materials science, biophysics, analytical chemistry and nanotechnology, integrated circuit and sensor technology.
Newly developed sensors yield insight view to molecular processes
It is expected that the research enabled by the newly developed sensors will provide fundamentally new insights into the molecular processes and signaling pathways in the alveoli and the transepithelial transport processes.
On the long term, understanding the microscopic functionality of the lung along with the macroscopic findings on the overall organ will lead to new therapies for diseases such as COPD or acute lung injury after trauma and sepsis.
From a sensory perspective, lung research with the above-mentioned goals is extremely exciting due to its structural uniqueness: Only a combination of the most recent sensing methods in miniaturized form and with simultaneously high sensitivity can succeed in this context.

Site: http://dragon.bg-time.com/
The Seventh Dragon is a browser based strategy MMO set in a vast, fantasy world of Asan. The game allow players to choose from three races, each with own unique set of units and specialties. Players can recruit heroes to battle for them against other players.
Construct your castle and buildings, produce resources, hire heroes and armies, equip them and conquer!
Players can select between three playable races – Human, Elf or Undead. Each race has seven different unit types and the units get stronger after some time.
Humans – they worship light. Their units are Spearman, Archer, Griffin, Bishop, Swordsman, Knight and Angel.
Elves – they worship nature. Their units are Kentauros, Leprechaun, Elf Guard, Pegasus, Dryad, Unicorn and Green dragon.
Undead – their units are Skeleton, Zombie, Ghost, Vampire, Lich, Dark Knight and Dragon Zombie.
There are two more races listed on the official site but when I created my account they weren't available for players. The two races are Devil and Neutral, each of them has seven different types of units.
In The Seventh Dragon players can construct and upgrade buildings like Command Center, Warehouse, Tavern, Guildhall, Farmland and more. Buildings take some time to be constructed and only one building can be constructed at a time. The higher the level the longer its construction time is.
Quests and Help
The MMO has quite helping introducing tutorial-quests with in-game reward. Later in game, there is a quest-mission for defeating the Devil boss Kaberos and send him back to hell.
Fighting, collecting and hunting can be accomplished only by dispatched heroes. The abilities of a hero affect the units. Heroes can be recruited from a Tavern. Higher level Tavern will offer more heroes of a time. Heroes level up from battles with Devil Castles, Monsters or other Players.
New players have protection against external attacks for nine days.
Yea, the idea behind the game units and development of the castles looks very similar to Heroes of Might and Magic series.

Liquidity regulation
The purpose of prudential liquidity regulations is to ensure that institutions are liquid at all times. The Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR, Regulation (EU) No 575/2013) transposes the Basel liquidity framework into European law and for the first time introduces two minimum standards as well as additional liquidity monitoring metrics applicable throughout Europe.
Liquidity coverage ratio (LCR)
The LCR defines the minimum stock of high-quality liquid assets (HQLA) credit institutions need to hold as liquidity reserves in order to cover their net cash outflows in a 30-day stress scenario. The amount and type of the assets they are expected to hold, and of the liquidity flows they should take into account, are defined in the stress scenario presented in the underlying Delegated Regulation (Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/61).
Net stable funding ratio (NSFR)
The NSFR is a minimum standard designed to reduce funding risk over a longer time horizon. It aims to ensure that institutions have a sustainable funding structure by limiting maturity transformation between asset-side business and funding, thereby mitigating the risk of future funding problems. To this end, the sum of liabilities weighted by their degree of long-term reliability (available stable funding) must at least be equal to the sum of assets and off-balance-sheet exposures weighted by factors that reflect their liquidity characteristics and residual maturities over a medium-term horizon (required stable funding). The CRR II transposes the NSFR rules published by the Basel Committee in October 2014 into EU law and now establishes the NSFR as a minimum standard. One feature specific to the EU has been added to uphold the principle of proportionality: in future, small and non-complex institutions will be given the option of applying a simplified NSFR.
Additional monitoring metrics (AMM)
Credit institutions' liquidity status is too complex to be suitably captured by just two metrics. Therefore, the two minimum standards have been augmented by monitoring metrics which enable supervisors to appropriately analyse an institution's liquidity and funding risk.
The EBA guidelines on LCR disclosure were published on 8 March 2017 and have been applicable since 31 December 2017. They supplement the existing European disclosure requirements and complete the disclosure format harmonised across Europe. LCR disclosure comprises qualitative and quantitative information on liquidity risk management and on components and fulfilment of the LCR. The NSFR's implementation as a minimum standard was flanked by the introduction of disclosure rules for the NSFR.
Intraday liquidity
Credit institutions need to have intraday liquidity at all times in order for payment and settlement systems to function smoothly. That is why intraday liquidity management is a key principle of sound liquidity risk management. The "Monitoring tools for intraday liquidity management" proposed by the Basel Committee comprise specific metrics for monitoring intraday liquidity for the purposes of institutions' internal liquidity management as well as banking supervision and payments oversight.

Have you ever wondered how a professional athlete chooses their sport? While they may have some natural ability, this isn't the whole story. Their path to stardom likely looks like this:
- They started early,
- They practiced relentlessly,
- They found a coach who cared,
- They loved what they did, and
- They focussed on their strengths.
If you think about it, their "sport" is really nothing more than their day job. And this formula is just as applicable whether you are a professional manager, analyst, salesperson, lawyer, or just about anything. Start your career early, improve yourself with education, find a mentor, and do what you love doing.
But what about the last item on the list? Instead of sticking to your strengths, do you focus on your weaknesses? Many people reason that because of their weaknesses, they are held back; if only their weaknesses could be addressed, then success will follow.
Unfortunately, the opposite is true. Especially for those in mid-career, a better strategy is to find a role where these weaknesses are unimportant. Then you can spend your time and energy on your strengths – and make a real difference.
When you stick to your strengths, consider the impact:
- You tackle your work relentlessly,
- You attract mentors who want to help a winner, and
- You love what you do, because you are no longer fighting your weaknesses.
Do these sound familiar? Like the professional athlete whose success depends on their strengths, your success does too.
This Week's Action Item: What are your strengths? Think about how others describe you; look in your old performance reviews; consider the tasks that you enjoy the most. During the week, change your focus to doing more things that take advantage of your strengths, and de-emphasize tasks (and training) that focus on your weaknesses. Working on your strengths makes you strong; working on your weaknesses makes you… not strong.

- Rereading the Black Legend: The Discourses of Religious and Racial Difference in the Renaissance Empires
This collection offers a sustained engagement with race in the Renaissance using the lens of the Black Legend —the twentieth-century neologism coined to protest widespread perception of colonial Spain's "unique brutality" in conquering the New World (1). As a whole, its essays propose that the distinctness of European colonialism and capitalism derives in large measure from "the drastic qualitative shift in the sixteenth century (which in the eighteenth century was universalized as race and racism)" (2), a shift integral to "the commodification of labour" (3) that attended Western expansion in the Americas. [End Page 1289]
A number of contributors play on a (racialized) logic of double difference, which the introduction traces back to Las Casas. As has been noted, Las Casas's condemnation of Spanish colonial brutality also unquestioningly presumes the "transparency and universality" (119) of Spain's religious and cultural values. While generalizing this constitutive opposition vis-à-vis their own colonial possessions, the second Northern European wave used Las Casas's critique to project an intra-European imperial difference, differentiating their regimes from Spain's. Lomano's fine essay deploys this pattern with exemplary care: tracing the vicissitudes of a single event across three centuries, he shows how the different narrations of Pizarro's 1532 capture of the Inca Atahualpa dynamically construct national-imperial identities and differences in response to changing complex of "values, epistemologies, and political projects." Fuchs, e.g., asserts that the ostensibly pervasive persistence of an exoticised fascination with Moorishness, even during the Reconquista, is turned by other Europeans nations into a pejorative characterization of Spain as itself Moorish. Silverblatt in turn claims to see in the organizational practices of the Inquisition the roots of modernity, anticipating Spain's position "in the vanguard of the modern world, installing cutting-edge bureaucracies and race-thinking designs" (100), even as "British propagandists" treat the Inquisition as "Spain's most glaring affront to the standards of civilization" (99). Such propagandist bent is further exposed in Campos's and Bradley's essays on the strategic and compensatory double standards operative in a range of English texts. In a turn on this pattern, Gravatt suggests De Bry's texts and images reveal less a strategic Protestant attack on Spanish Catholic colonization than a broader self-reflection upon human failings shared by Spaniards, Northern Europeans, and New World inhabitants alike. In another variation, Nocentelli argues that the Dutch Linschoten's Itinerario produces an alternative Portuguese "Black Legend," attributing to Portugal not so much colonial brutality as a racial inferiority, a degeneration which results from its practices of marrying natives.
Structuring this compilation around revising the Black Legend has the virtue of lending it greater coherence than is usually the case. However, the Hispanocentrism leads to a degree of monotony in argumentation and approach. More uncomfortably, and against the contributors' intents, this volume sometimes comes close to mitigating Spanish colonial practices on the dubious grounds that others were just as bad. This may be so, though I remain uncertain about the criteria whereby we decide which colonial regimes were more brutal. The implication is most startling in Silvermoon and Ennis's otherwise fascinating reconstruction of the "perseverance" (150) of the Nahua, as a consequence of a modular, adaptable social organization that allowed them "to imagine and understand" themselves "within the larger colonial and global order" (165). This celebration of resilience is oddly framed by their claim that "the destruction of indigenous cultures does not necessarily result from Spanish colonialism," surviving "despite the brutality of European colonialism." But showing that, far from being unique, Spain was "merely" the first European power "to carve [out] an empire in the New World" (1) requires more attention to economics and body counts, to material practices, [End Page 1290] than Rereading affords, given its focus on the politics of representation —rather than...

We've been seeing a great deal of media coverage lately about bullies. Fortunately, this increases awareness on the part of students, parents and teachers that bullying is ongoing and insidious. My opinion is that we have only gone halfway in identifying bullies and the enormous evil that they are able to effect on their fellow citizens.
Bullying doesn't happen only on the playground or at school athletic events. If we are not advising our kids that people who arbitrarily and randomly shoot others are bullies, we are losing a huge opportunity to make our point. Likewise, insulting others on social media is bullying and should be identified as such.
Unfortunately, we whitewash the evils of politicians and normal citizens by attributing their behavior to politics or flakiness. As I read comments made on seemingly innocuous subjects by commentators throughout the world, I am amazed by their insensitivity, illiteracy and intensity.
As adults and educators, we are missing great opportunities for education if we don't recognize this adult behavior as bullying. No matter how hard I try, I can never remember identifying political candidates as bullies to my children or any others. But any act of personal aggression from one adult to another is truly bullying, simply in another atmosphere.
Before I am accused of pontificating, I ask you to consider the significance of name-calling, road rage, minor acts of disrespect and any other compromises of integrity. Your children and the rest of the world are aware of our behavior and if we want to stop bullying most effectively, we must be consistent and conscientious.
Playground bullies can grow up to be adults who are dangerous to all of us, especially if we underestimate the power of bullying. Join me in discouraging the behavior that has the most serious potential for harm. Shalom.

Quite often when we're with junior or less-experienced members of a team, we'll ask them to carry out an apparently simple task and because we consider it trivial or inconsequential we don't feel it necessary to say 'well done' or 'thank you'.
But bear in mind that the junior team member doesn't think of the task as of no consequence and will consider that completion as an achievement and appreciation and recognition indicates that they are making a genuinely valuable contribution to the team effort.
Any junior team member will want to impress so any opportunity that arises where they notice or say something novel must be embraced, no matter how trivial it may appear to be because it helps reinforce the collaborative nature of team work and will mean everyone continues to look for ways to move forward and improve on what they are doing.

Bucharest Travel Guide
For many people, initial impressions of Bucharest (Bucureşti), a sprawling, dusty city of some two million people, are less than favourable. It's Romania's centre of government and commerce, and site of its main airport, so most visitors to the country will find themselves passing through the city at some point, but its chaotic jumble of traffic-choked streets, ugly concrete apartment blocks and monumental but mostly unfinished communist developments is often enough to send most travellers scurrying off to the more obvious attractions further north. Yet it's a city that rewards patience, with a raft of terrific museums, first-rate restaurants and bars, and, behind the congested main arteries, some superb architecture and abundant greenery.
The architecture of the old city, with its cosmopolitan air, was notoriously scarred by Ceauşescu's redevelopment project in the 1980s, which demolished an immense swathe of the historic centre – including many religious buildings and thousands of homes – and replaced it with a concrete jungle, the compellingly monstrous Centru Civic. The centrepiece of this development was an enormous new palace for the communist leader, now known as the Palace of Parliament, which is Bucharest's premier tourist attraction.
The heart of the city is the Piaţa Revoluţiei, the scene of Ceauşescu's downfall and site of the old Royal Palace – now home to the superb National Art Museum, housing a fine collection of Romanian medieval art. It lies halfway along Bucharest's historic north–south axis, the Calea Victoriei, which is still the main artery of city life; the city's main junction, however, is the Piaţa Universităţii, scene of major events immediately after the 1989 revolution. To the south of here lies the scruffy but atmospheric historic centre, which these days owes its popularity to the welter of bars and restaurants crammed into its agreeably tatty streets.
North from Piaţa Victoriei, along the broad sweep of Şoseaua Kiseleff, lie Bucharest's two best museums – the Museum of the Romanian Peasant, with its marvellous exhibits on peasant life and superbly reconstructed buildings, and the Village Museum, an assemblage of vernacular buildings garnered from Romania's multifarious regions. There's plenty of greenery to explore, too – most obviously the tranquil Cişmigiu Gardens in the heart of the city, and the more expansive Herăstrău Park, on the shores of the lake of the same name.
From Bucharest, there are excellent rail and road connections to the rest of the country, but local bus and train services to the towns and villages in the immediate vicinity are often limited or tortuous. There are, however, some enjoyable visits to be had just outside the capital, most notably the lake and monastery at Snagov, the palace at Mogoşoaia and the village of Clejani, known for its outstanding Gypsy music.
