A Bid for Freedom
14 June 1974 by Colin Shindler
On June 15, a group of criminals, trying to seize a scheduled airplane were arrested at Smolny Airport. Investigations are in progress.
It is almost four years since this small and at the time somewhat insignificant Item appeared in Vecherny Leningrad. Since then, the so-called "group of criminals" have become the martyred heroes of the Jewish exodus movement in the U.S.S.R. and their supporters outside. Songs have been written about Silva Zalmanson. The paintings of Boris Penson have been in the finest art galleries. Even the camp writings of Edward Kuznetsov have been published in the West.
The tribulations of the prisoners of Zion, arrested on that summer's day in June, 1970, have stirred many an indifferent heart and have elevated the level of national consciousness of Jews the world over.
In the few years since then, over 80,000 Soviet Jews have emigrated to Israel. An indirect result, perhaps, of the storm of protest and indignation surrounding the subject of the stealing of the aircraft. Behind this attempt to leave the USSR, there were feelings of black gloom and deep desperation at the inhumanity the Soviet emigration authorities and at the so-called civilised world which turned a deaf to the cries of Soviet Jews.
In early. 1970, when emigration, when emigration was almost non-existent, the few Jewish activists talked of mass hunger strikes to break the impenetrable wall of indifference. Many, particularly those in Leningrad thought that the UN Declaration of Human Rights should not be a mere piece of paper with no real meaning for Government. Hence, at the beginning of 1970 the Leningrad Jews signed two protest letters to the UN Commission on Human Rights. They became known as "the letter of the 21″ and "the letter of the 37."
It was in Riga that the frustration was greatest… Letters were signed, but activists that something more was needed. Plans to publicise the plight of Soviet Jewry were in abundance. People even joked about it. "Setting fire to one's greatly beloved mother-in-law in Red Square to attract the world's attention would be well worth considering," was one jest going the reloads. Into this scene came Mark Dymshits.
Dymshits had worked as a pilot in Bokhara and felt that he had never really had any opportunities to fulfil himself because of anti-Semitic discrimination. Unlike the other accused in the first Leningrad trial, who spoke of family reunification and national feelings, Dymshits put forward three reasons for his action: anti-Semitism in the USSR; the Soviet Union's policy in the Middle East; the Soviet nationalities policy as it affected the Jews.
At about the time of the Six Day war, Dymshits dreamed up the idea of flying out of the Soviet Union. He was full of bizarre notions such as floating out of the country in an air balloon or building his own aircraft. Such thoughts were those of one man and had nothing in common with the embryonic exodus movement.
In the autumn of 1969, Dymshits's difficulties with learning Hebrew led him to Hillel Butman, a leading Leningrad activist. The samizdat version of the trial proceedings show that dymshits soon began to talk of stealing a plane. To numerous Leningrad Jews. People like Lev Korenblit, a. man widely respected for his knowledge of Hebrew and Jewish affairs and his brave attempts to educate the young people in Leningrad came down on this suggestion with a passionate conviction that it was wrong.
Soon no one in Leningrad would listen to Dymshits and he told people that he had dropped the idea. In Riga it fell on much more fertile ground. The Jews there were far more emotionally geared to the concept of Jewish state, Jewish traditions, a Jewish way of life in general. After all, Latvia had only been annexed in 1940; the currents of Judaism were still strong there.
Silva Zalmanson, Iosif Mendelevich and Leib Khnokh had all come from anti-assimilationist backgrounds. During the trial, Boris Penson explained that that his mother been born in a small Jewish town, spoke Russian very badly and could not acclimatize herself In the USSR.
Personal factors were also important. Edward Kuznetsov had spent seven years in a camp on anti-Sovietism. Yet even on release in 1969, he was not given a proper chance to settle down. As an ex-prisoner, he was kept under surveillance and harassed. Obstacles were placed In the way of his getting employment. Even new girlfriends avoided him after proper instructions from the KGB.
Silva Zalmanson had had it tough. She had spent many years looking after a sick mother in a household of men and had wanted to emigrate ever since the early sixties.
The notion of stealing a plane without violence or bloodshed to fly to freedom became a reality to some, while to others it was a romantic fantasy. The escape on a magic carpet to the land of their dreams became a rosy image that these courageous Riga Jews could not give up. Even when they knew that their chances of success were infinitesimal, they could not turn back to a life of desperation and frustration.
IT IS CLEAR from many sources that the KGB knew what was going on right from the start. Even more tragically, the Riga Jews knew that the KGB; yet there could be no going back.
In his diaries, Kuznetsov comments that he realized on the day before the attempted seizure of this plane that all of the Rigaites felt the operation was doomed to failure, but did not meet to admit it to themselves or to one another.
Boris Penson told Kuznetsov on the train from Riga to Leningrad, "Better into the hands of the devil now rather than return."
Iosif Mendelevich and Israel Zalmanson had argued sometime before about the philosophical nature of the attempt. Mendelevich pointed out that people should understand the danger of the mission. Its nature was directly relevant to the persecution Jewish people had suffered down the ages. The attempt even though it had virtually no chance of success, had to be made, said Mendelevich, if only to awaken the outside world to their plight.
Last year a letter signed by eight of the participants on the eve of the adventure was discovered. Headed "Flee from the land of the North", it expressed their fatalistic urges:
If we fail, we ask you all to take care of our relatives and protect them against those who would try and make them pay for our act. We would point out that our act does not endanger anyone else. The moment the plane leaves the ground, we ourselves will be the only ones in it.
The KGB had been carefully fostering the plan by keeping out of sight. Their plan had been to use the attempt, which all parties knew would be unsuccessful, to destroy the exodus movement. Personal contacts between Jews in other cities were to be made into links in an "all-nation Zionist conspiracy." The Smolny airport staff had even been informed well in advance that that particular flight had been cancelled. No second pilot had been detailed to the flight.
The single pilot had been given orders to taxi up and down to give the impression that everything was OK. As the Jews approached the plane, squads of KGB men threw themselves at them. What happened next was like a Keystone Cops comedy, except that it was in bitter earnest.
Notes from the samizdat version of the trial proceeding state:
The Moscow security services, having failed to make precise arrangements with their Leningrad colleagues, had decided on their own, and at the last moment, to carry out the arrests at the airport. As the Moscow officials knew what each member of the group looked like, but were not certain that there had been no last minute changes in the group, they decided – to be on the safe side – to arrest every person approaching the aircraft. The result was that some of the Leningrad security agents who resisted arrest, required prompt medical attention.
The group had divided on arrival in Leningrad; the women went to Priozersk with Knokh and Penson. The Leningrad plane containing the others was scheduled to land there and the plan was to tie upthe pilots in their sleeping bags and hop over the border to Sweden.
From the start, the group noticed that they were being followed. They changed trains twice. Upon reaching Priozersk, they lost their way, so they decided to light a fire and spend the night in a nearby forest. At three in the morning, Penson, acting as a guard, heard a rustling of leaves. Suddenly police came charging at them, firing slat-keg bullets at them indiscriminately.
Within half an hour of the seizure of the airplane at Smolney airport, arrest of Jews and searches of their homes were taking place in half a dozen Soviet cities. Six months later, the first Leningrad trial opened.
The prosecution exaggerated and distorted the events. Apart from treason, the accused were charged with theft of government property, even though the theft did not take place, and they had intended that the plane should be returned once they were in Sweden. Defence counsel tried to change the charge to 'banditry with the aim of seizing government property'.

Andrew Parry is Head of Sustainable Investing and a member of the Hermes Strategy Group. He joined the firm in 2009, initially as Chief Executive and Co-Head of Investment for Hermes Sourcecap, now Hermes European Equities, becoming Head of Equities in 2014 and taking on responsibility for developing Impact investing in August of 2016. In September of 2017 he became Head of Sustainable Investing to reflect the commitment of Hermes to building on their success in responsible investing.
In 2006, Andrew jointly founded Sourcecap with the aim of building a best-in-class investment boutique focused on excellence in European equity management. Prior to this, Andrew established Pembroke Capital Management in 2003 and successfully launched the Magenta Fund, a global equity non-directional fund. Before that, Andrew worked at Northern Trust Global Investments (Europe) Ltd as Chief Investment Officer of International Equities and was responsible for the management of global, international and regional portfolios. He has also held a variety of senior investment roles, including Head of International Equities at Julius Baer Investments, Chief Investment Officer at Lazard Brothers Asset Management, and Head of UK Equities at Baring Asset Management. Andrew holds an MA in Mathematics from the University of St Andrews.
Andrew is Co-Chair of the UNEP Financial Initiative Positive Impact Steering Group and a member of the Investment Committee of the Trafalgar House Pension Trust . He was formerly an independent investment advisor to the Investment Sub-Committee of the Mineworkers' Pension Scheme and a non-equity director of Aerion Fund Managers.
With many indices now labelled bear markets after a traumatic start to the year, Andrew Parry, Head of Equities notes it is important to recognise that long-term investment returns are gradually rising, not falling, and that an adjustment was needed, as global quantitative easing had led to elevated valuations in most asset markets. US rates more influential than China turbulence: Previously, we have said that elevated volatility was the only market prediction that we were certain about. We maintain this view largely because of the "denominator problem": with official rates hovering near zero and longer term rates suppressed, small changes in interest rate expectations can lead to significant swings in asset prices.

Students 'amazed' after working alongside Nall
Fred "Nall" Hollis worked with Troy University art students this week to create a mixed media assemblage.
One of the state's most renowned artists walked into a small room crowded with Troy University art students and removed his hat.
"This is wonderful," exclaimed Fred "Nall" Hollis, a Troy, Alabama, native whose work spans multiple decades and multiple continents.
After taking a moment to observe the collaborative art piece the students had been developing, he smiled and took off his coat, a gleam in his eye.
"Do we have bricks? We need bricks," he said, and Nall was off to the races, the ideas firing from his brain while he greeted several awestruck students during this special workshop, which took place during "Nall Day" festivities Tuesday.
The students, in collaboration with Nall, created a mixed media assemblage consisting of everything from found art to student-created paintings and drawings, and the visionary lent advice and hands-on help along the way.
"It's a really cool experience," said senior Allison Riley. "He's an extremely talented artist, and it's been great to watch his process. He had us move around the different pieces to balance the color (on the assemblage). Several times I thought it looked fine, but he was like, 'No, no, it needs to be moved one more time.' He was right, and it did look so much better after."
Nall works alongside TROY art students.
Nall's experience traveling the globe and honing his craft inspired students who are seeking to pursue careers in the fine arts.
"For me, this is a first, and it's very interesting to have this opportunity," said junior John Suyak. "Just being with him this morning was an experience unto itself, and it was really heartwarming to be chosen to work under such a renowned artist. It's been an honor."
Senior Deandrea Nesbitt, who wants to blend her art with her cosmetology business after graduation, studied Nall's process closely throughout the day.
"It's an amazing experience, especially seeing the things he's done and the way he goes about working with things, his patience and attitude toward everything," Nesbitt said. "He's organized, and he does a lot of his organization beforehand, but then when he gets into it, he lets his creativity take over. He mixes things up and goes with the flow."
Senior Lizzie Orlofsky is particularly interested in art history, and she viewed the Nall workshop as a valuable learning opportunity.
"It's prepping me for working in a museum one day alongside notable artists," she said. "Each artist has their own approach, and what I've been most interested in is his approach to creating art. We're in this warehouse-style room, we're using bricks and things of that nature, so he's creating art from humble means. That's been exciting to see."
Riley said she walked away from the workshop with some important lessons that will help her as she works to build her own artistic legacy.
"One thing he's passed on that is particularly helpful is, 'Don't stop until it's finished,'" she said. "Don't settle for good enough, because it needs to be the best. That's what he does in his work — he keeps going until it's the best it's going to be." The art piece Nall and the students created will undergo some finishing touches and then be put on display in the International Arts Center.
A full gallery of images from the workshop can be found here.

There's plenty of reflection in this game, in both senses of the word. That's because this strategic puzzler involves using mirrors to direct a beam of light across a succession of 60 screens. Each mirror has 16 different angles it can be set at, each of which will send the beam around the screen in different ways. Before the exit is activated, all the mines on a screen must be cleared by running the beam over them. There are other devices built into the levels, including teleports and random angle-changers, as well as hazards to avoid (they cause the beam to overheat) and droids which go around moving the mirrors' directions.

Q: Using audio data with ParseSwift I am working on an iOS app using ParseSwift (1.7.1) and I have a collection in a Mongo DB.

Here is how the data type for this collection is currently declared in my iOS Swift app:
struct TheCollection: ParseObject,Identifiable,Equatable,Hashable {
    //: These are required for any Object.
    var objectId: String?
    var createdAt: Date?

    var id:UUID {return UUID()}
    var SENTENCE: String?,
        Order: Int?,
        ownerID: String?,
        //AUDIO: String?, .... causes trouble!
        unit: Pointer<OtherCollection>?

    //: Custom initializer.
    init(sentence: String,
         order: Int, unit: Pointer<OtherCollection>) {
        self.SENTENCE = sentence
        self.Order = order
        self.unit = unit
    }

    static func ==(lhs: TheCollection,
                   rhs: TheCollection) -> Bool {
        return lhs.SENTENCE == rhs.SENTENCE /*&&
            lhs.AUDIO == rhs.AUDIO*/
    }

    func hash(into hasher: inout Hasher) {
        hasher.combine(SENTENCE)
        //hasher.combine(AUDIO)
    }
}

My question is about the AUDIO field. It points to some important chunk of audio data on the server.
What is the type I should use for AUDIO ?
I already know that if I use String (as commented out) I run into trouble. But I am not sure what to use instead.

Forests Ontario to honour bur oaks as heritage trees
Bur oaks in Champlain Park will be named as heritage trees by Forests Ontario on National Tree Day 2017.
Among the approximately 60 bur oaks in Champlain Park neighbourhood, at least 40 are more than 50 cm Diameter at Breast Height (DBH) and thus deemed "distinctive" under Ottawa's tree protection bylaw for private property. Of these, 18 are over 120 years old (estimate based on size) and predate Post-World War 2 residential development in the neighbourhood.
Four of these large bur oaks will receive a metal plaque identifying them as heritage trees on National Tree Day. This comes from Forests Ontario, not the City of Ottawa.
Provincial heritage status opens the door for Ottawa to both recognize and protect heritage trees, as does the City's recently approved Urban Forest Management Plan. Recommendation #9 in the Plan calls for a review of the existing tree conservation by-law. This review is underway, and the Plan directs staff to consider "options for incorporating a heritage tree component into this by-law."
Join the celebration on National Tree Day
The honouring event begins at 10 a.m. September 27 with opening words from the CEO of Forests Ontario, Rob Keen. The Kot family property, at 124 Cowley Ave., will be our gathering site, under the branches of the second-oldest heritage bur oak in Champlain Park. Read more about its history here.
By 10:45 a.m., the entourage of guests, residents and media will walk to Daniel and Keyworth Avenues where three more bur oaks, which are part of a grove, will have plaques affixed to their bark. They are located at 205 Daniel Ave, 211 Daniel Ave and 218 Keyworth Ave. Click on each address to read a profile of the tree, and of families that care about them.
Baby bur oaks for sale
For the last 5 years, Daniel Buckles of the Champlain Oaks project has tended a backyard nursery of bur oaks. The saplings he nurtures are grown from acorns of heritage trees, such as the one on the Kot property. He will be selling bur oak saplings for $10 per pot on National Tree Day. Money collected will fund supplies for tree planting in the neighbourhood.

F1 reports £68m profit in 2021 as revenue recovers
25th February 2022, 15:28 | Written by Keith Collantine
Formula 1 reported annual revenue of $2.136 billion (£1.6bn) in 2021 after increasing the number of races on its calendar to 22.
The series made a profit of $92 million (£68m), having lost $386m during the pandemic-struck 2020 season.
The easing of restrictions arising from the Covid-19 pandemic last year meant five more races were held compared to the year before. Many were able to welcome spectators once more and the lucrative Paddock Club, which only operated a single event in 2020, resumed in July last year.
Therefore while F1 held seven races over the final quarter of 2021, as it did the year before, these brought in more money. They contributed $172m (£128m), an increase of 273% compared to the same period in 2020.
That helped F1's revenues increase by 86% year-on-year. Its pay-outs to teams also rose, by 50%, to $1.068 billion (£800m). The relatively slower rate arose partly due to F1 making one-time payments to teams when they signed the Concorde Agreement in 2020.
Race promotion was F1's largest revenue stream, accounting for 40% of its income. Media rights, including broadcasting, represented 31% of all revenue and sponsorship contributed 16%.
The 2021 season "was a remarkable year for Formula 1 in all respects," said F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali. "The racing was spectacular and the business produced outstanding results."

We're so happy for you…
You should be if you want there to be F1.
PeterG
Would be nice if these revenues were used in a way to make the sport more assessable to fans via lower ticket prices (This is why I really miss in-season testing where tickets were cheap or free which gave fans more opportunities to go watch trackside & more often) but also via making it available LIVE on FreeTV or via F1TV been made available in more places.
Got an E-mail today saying our Sky subscription is going up in price yet again & it's reached the point where we can no longer afford it so we phoned to cancel which means that for the first time since the early 90s when the BBC didn't air every round live I will be forced to watch highlights this year via Channel 4 & I simply do not & never have enjoyed watching highlights so this year for me F1 will be less exciting for me because of that.
But Sky are paying Liberty a fortune so I doubt Liberty really care that many fans, many long time/dedicate fans who want to watch live are struggling to be able to do so because of the Paywall that Liberty have actually expanded rather than reduced as I think most of the new TV deals they have done have been PayTV. Oh but at least there homeland gets it on FreeTV I guess because it seems the US is there main priority & all they care about (Along with lining there own pockets of course).
PT (@pt)
Your situation is terrible – a hardcore fan having to be satisfied with the highlights. Surely Liberty isn't paying attention. In India, our channel subscription is via the Tata Play digital TV, which is manageable in terms of costs of channels.

Then it should have no problem refunding the fans who attended SPA…

Definitely, assuming 100.000 people and 100-200 euro ticket each, might be a few hundreds off, there's plenty to refund all of them, so the way they dealt with the spa situation, talking exclusively about the spectators ofc, is "money over customer happyness".
Ops, happiness*

Artist Features, News
School's Out With Thunderpussy
If their name isn't a dead give away, Thunderpussy are a fearless band of females changing rock n' roll for the better. Their invigorating music has quickly transformed them from a Seattle secret into an overnight sensation. Ahead of their self-titled, debut album we chatted with them about their origins, collaborating with fellow Seattle native Mike McCready, and their uncompromising take on rock.
Thunderpussy plays Zone One at Elsewhere on Friday May 18th!
Our first question is something we simply have to ask. How did you all come up with the name Thunderpussy?
Off the shores of the Banda Sea, it came to us in a message in a bottle -Molly
Your hometown of Seattle has played an important role in shaping alternative rock and grunge music. How do you balance taking inspiration from local greats (Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden) yet still pave your own path?
Inspiration is an invitation to dive into your own creative world and through that world, you find your voice. It's important to have integrity in your craft, and when pulling from your influences, that you stay true to your personal expression. I think the beauty of our band is that we're all quite unique and we each draw from a wide range of art. We have an eclectic creative palette that makes our sound what it is. We all play a part in paving the path, although echoes of others may linger along the way. -Molly
Earlier this year you released your EP Greatest Tits. Was there anything specific you were looking to achieve with this release, musically or otherwise? How do these songs set the tone for the future of Thunderpussy?
Greatest Tits is an extension of our album. We wanted to throw out those sonic limbs in hopes of pulling people towards the larger body of work. As for the future, most of the songs on the album were written 2-4 years ago. A lot has happened over the years and with that comes room to grow- spiritually, emotionally, and creatively as a group and as individuals. The EP is a taste tester for the album and the album is the first chapter of our Thunderpussy cyclopedia. There is much more in store. We've only just begun! -Molly
Your music has placed you in the hearts of many fans, one of which being Pearl Jam's Mike McCready. What has the collaboration process with McCready been like?
Mike is the best ball of energy! He genuinely lives and breathes music and he's more than willing to share his experiences and wealth of knowledge. When you're in a room with him you can't help but absorb his energy. The best part about working with Mike is that his interests lie in the emotion of the sound rather than the "part". There is always room to experiment when you're in the studio with him, which also makes it hard to leave. I never want to! But that would be awkward. -Molly
Thunderpussy, your self-titled debut album, is set to be released on May 25th. Ahead of its release you are playing a string of shows, one of which being Elsewhere [Zone One] on May 18th. What can fans expect from a Thunderpussy concert?
A PARTY! Hopefully, we generate a fun intoxicating atmosphere where people can lose themselves for a bit. -Molly

Abstract - Factors affecting growth and yield of short-duration pigeonpea and its potential
Photo Parvathisri
J.agric. Sci., Camb. (1987) 109, 519-529
by Y.S. Chauhan, N. Venkataratnam, R. Sheldrake
Environmental and cultural factors that may limit the yield of short-duration pigeonpea were investigated over three seasons. Plants in the peninsular Indian environment at Patancheru grew less and produced less dry matter by first-flush maturity than at Hisar, a location in northern India where the environment is considered favourable for the growth of short-duration pigeonpea. However, with a similar sowing date in June, the mean seed yields of three genotypes, ICPL4, ICPL81 and ICPL87, were very similar, at about 2-3t/ha, in both environments. This was mainly due to the higher ratio of grain to above-ground dry matter at Patancheru. In addition to the first harvest, all genotypes showed a potential for two more harvests owing to the warm winters at Patancheru. The potential for multiple harvests was particularly high in ICPL 87, which yielded 5.2t/ha from three harvests in 1982-3, 3.6t/ha from two harvests in 1983-4, and 4.1 t/ha from three harvests in 1984-5. The optimum plant population density at Patancheru was 25-35 plants/m2 for ICPL 87, but was higher for the other two genotypes.
At Patancheru, the total dry-matter and seed yield of first and subsequent harvests were significantly reduced by delaying sowing beyond June. Generally, the second-and the third-harvest yields were lower on vertisol than on alfisol under both irrigated and unirrigated conditions.
The total yield of ICPL 87 from two harvests was far higher than that of a well-adapted medium-duration genotype BDN 1, grown over a similar period. The yield advantage was greater on the alfisol because of the better multiple harvest potential of this soil. The results of this study demonstrate that properly managed short-duration genotypes of pigeonpea may have considerable potential for increased yield from multiple harvests in environments where winters are warm enough to merit continued growth.

'Retail is not dead': Larry Kestelman toasts Grand leasing success
Larry SchlesingerReporter
Feb 7, 2020 – 12.00am
Financial Review Rich Lister Larry Kestelman says bricks-and-mortar retailing "is not dead" after leasing up almost all 6000sq m of retail space at the foot of Capitol Grand, his glitzy $700 million high-rise development nearing completion on the corner of Chapel Street and Toorak Road in Melbourne's South Yarra.
While retail trade slumped to its worst year on record in 2019, according to official data released on Thursday, Mr Kestelman has secured a bevy of upmarket tenants for Capitol Grand including Dior Cosmetics & Accessories, London fitness chain 1Rebel, and renowned gallery operator and artist David Bromley.
Rents have been struck at between $1000 and $2500 a square metre – well above the $500 a square metre advertised for the dozens of vacant shops on the struggling Chapel Street retail strip.
In total 21 of the 23 shops in the retail arcade have been leased and will open in June, joining an already strongly trading David Jones Food Hall and popular bistro and bar Omnia, owned by Mr Kestelman.
With the retail space almost leased up and 85 per cent of the 380 apartments sold, Larry Kestelman is on the cusp of completing a project many said was too expensive and destined to fail. Eamon Gallagher
Having long abandoned plans to fill the vast retail space with high-end fashion labels like Gucci and Luis Vuitton, Mr Kestelman's LK Property Group turned its focus to upmarket food and beverage offerings as well as "unique" retail experiences that could not be easily replicated online.
The idea, he said, was to create a retail offering that appealed to the wealthy residents moving into Capitol Grand and the young professionals residing in nearby apartments – a demographic for which Mr Kestelman has coined the term "the selfish bunch" given their high disposable incomes and penchant for spending lavishly on themselves.
"[Physical] Retail is not dead. New versions of retail, which have a focus on delivering experiences and not just selling stuff, are doing well," he told The Australian Financial Review.
"Everything we are doing at Capitol Grand is so unique."
As an example, he pointed to London-based 1Rebel, which has leased around 900 square metres in Capitol Grand for its first Australian fitness studio.
1Rebel – which will trade as 1R in Australia – offers fitness classes in venues styled like futuristic film sets complete with DJs and cold-press juice bars
"This is not anything like a gym I used to go to. Think Virgin Active, but on steroids," Mr Kestelman said.
More like a nightclub: 1Rebel will open in Capitol Grand in June.
1Rebel's Australian CEO Amanda Maclean said its Capitol Grand venue would be the chain's largest club to date.
"From the moment you walk into the club, you will become immersed in an experience. Australians will soon discover an entirely new, intense and incredibly addictive way of working out," she said.
Added to the retail mix will be Dry & Tea, a combination hair stylist and tea house, luxury eyewear retailer One Point Seven Four, an HSBC Private bank branch and a real estate agency.
"We're also going to open a private members club, like the Australian or Athenaeum Club, but modernised," Mr Kestelman said. "There will also be an Asian fusion restaurant and bar, a degustation restaurant and an events space in partnership with the art gallery."
The leasing success at Capitol Grand is a sharp contrast to neighbouring Chapel Street, whose high vacancy rate has highlighted the death of fashion retailers on suburban strips.
Mr Kestelman has been a harsh critic of the once bustling retail strip, calling its shopfronts "old, narrow, dark and no longer fit for purpose" at an industry event last year.
He doubled down on his criticism saying those retailers that had failed on Chapel Street ran "quite simplistic businesses selling clothing from China", but said the strip would eventually rejuvenate itself.
With the retail space almost leased up and 85 per cent of the 380 apartments sold, Mr Kestelman is on the cusp of completing a project many said was too expensive and destined to fail when it launched five years ago.
Mr Kestelman said two-thirds of the apartments, funded by Goldman Sachs and built by Multiplex, had settled, with those on the higher floors of the 50-storey tower selling at between $25,000 and $37,000 per square metre.
Inside one of the high-end apartments at Capitol Grand.Those on the higher floors of the 50-storey tower are selling at between $25,000 and $37,000 per square metre.
"A few sales fell over last year – mostly overseas buyers who could not get their funds out or investors who could not arrange financing – but we have resold those," he said.
Marketing of the final top-floor residences and penthouses will kick off soon.
"It's been an interesting journey from when we first launched with Charlize Theron at the Australian Grand Prix in 2015," Mr Kestelman said. "I am very pleased with the outcome."

Modules available in Michaelmas Term:
ZM1 Vertebrate evolution
ZM2 Conservation science
ZM4 Neuroethology: The neural basis of adaptive behaviour
ZM5 Evolution and behaviour: Genes and individuals
ZM6 Cell assembly and interactions
ZM7 From genome to proteome
ZM8 Development: patterning the embryo
PLM3 Evolution and Ecosystem Dynamics
Module Organiser: Dr Jason Head
Also available as a BBS minor.
This course introduces the evolution of vertebrates, integrating information from the fossil record, development, and ecology to examine major events in vertebrate history. These include the origin of vertebrates, hypotheses surrounding the origins and homologies of jaws and limbs, the evolution of vertebrates onto land, the origins and adaptive radiations in diverse groups such as ray-finned fishes, lizards, and birds, the mechanics of locomotion and feeding among dinosaurs, the evolution of specialized anatomies such as the turtle shell and the snake body form, and the kill mechanisms behind mass extinction events. The nature of the fossil record, including the processes that form the record from death to discovery, are also discussed, as is the role of the fossil record in helping to understand the future implications of human-induced environmental change.
Students will be exposed to a range of analytical techniques and philosophical approaches for inferring vertebrate history, including phylogeny reconstruction methods, comparative anatomical observation, phylogenetic taxonomy, and conservation palaeobiology methods.
Important components of the course are demonstration practical sessions which are held in the exhibit halls and demonstration rooms in the University Museum of Zoology. These sessions provide students with direct access to the fossil and modern anatomies that underpin the major hypotheses discussed in lectures. An additional practical session is held in the exhibits of the Sedgwick Museum.
Module Organiser: Dr David Aldridge
(Inter-departmental Course, with Plant Sciences)
This interdepartmental course, taught by the Departments of Zoology and Plant Sciences, aims to provide an understanding of why wild nature is currently in decline, why this matters, and how biology coupled with other disciplines can be harnessed to identify potential solutions.
The course begins by explaining the distribution and importance of biodiversity, and the evidence that it is currently being lost. It then examines in detail the immediate threats to wild populations and their habitats, and the underlying drivers of those threats. The final section of lectures explores potential solutions, combining socio-economic as well as biological insights to take a constructively critical look at approaches ranging from sustainable harvesting and ecosystem restoration to agri-environment schemes and the marketing of ecosystem services.
Core lectures are supplemented by case studies given by outside experts on policy and conservation practice. There is also a field trip, a careers session, a class debate and a guided tour round various conservation organisations based in the David Attenborough Building.
Module Organiser: Dr Berthold Hedwig
These lectures place a strong emphasis on understanding the neural mechanisms underlying behaviour. Within this module we explore how nervous systems are organised, how animals gather and process information about the environment, and how they generate the motor activity underlying their behaviour.
The lectures will give an introduction into the organisation and adaptations of brains and nervous systems and will show how an animal's neuronal capabilities are linked to energy, ecology and lifestyle. We consider neural circuits and the control of motor patterns for locomotion and communication. We demonstrate how auditory and visual processing is adapted to the lifestyle in insects and other species. Larval and adult Drosophila will be discussed with an emphasis on genetic techniques to study their nervous system and behaviour. Finally, we will demonstrate the basis of plasticity and learning in neural networks und behaviour at a circuit and cellular level.
Module Organiser: Dr Nick Mundy
The classical way to study animal behaviour separates questions concerned with function (what is the adaptive value of the behaviour? what is its evolutionary history?) from those focused on causation (how is the behaviour controlled? how does it develop during a lifetime?). The aim of this course to show how recent research is sweeping aside these traditional distinctions in two different ways, yielding new insights into the way that evolution works. Specifically:
1) Animal behaviour, and the mechanisms by which it develops, can contribute to evolutionary change: by changing ecological conditions; by imposing selection on other parts of the phenotype and other individuals; by influencing patterns of inherited variation; and by facilitating reproductive isolation.
2) At the same time, the mechanisms controlling behaviour and its development are themselves subject to natural selection and are adaptations for the ecological conditions in which an animal lives. This means that we can predict the particular mechanisms involved in behavioural development, as well as an animal's immune function and its specific cognitive and sensory capacity, from aspects of its ecology.
The first half of the course focuses on the genetic foundations of behaviour and the consequences for evolutionary processes such as adaptation and speciation. In the second half of the course, the emphasis is on the adaptive value of cognitive, sensory and immune function and how they contribute to individual variation.
Module Organiser: Dr Tim Weil
(Inter-departmental Course, with PDN)
Cells are highly organised and dynamic structures. In this module we will explore how the architecture of the cell is constructed and how cells interact with each other and their environment in order to fulfil their myriad roles in animals. Our current knowledge of these vital topics will be presented in depth, with a focus on the molecular mechanisms that regulate cell behaviour. We will examine how cells use basic cell biological mechanisms in their complex activities within animals, including cellular behaviour during development and how cellular activities provide key physiological functions in the adult.
We begin with an examination of how cells become polarised and adhere together to form higher order multicellular assemblies. We will then explore how nuclear organisation and architecture of the genome reflects and regulates gene function. This is followed by a discussion of how membrane compartments are constructed, and the dynamics of transfer between them. Next is a section of theories to explain how cells were first created and then evolved into the great diversity of cell morphologies and function observed today. We will then discuss the role of the cytoskeleton in cell shape, division, organisation and movement. Specifically, we will cover cell motility, the relationship between centrosomes and microtubules, how cells sense and respond to the mechanical properties of their surroundings and morphogenesis.
This is an interdepartmental course (PDN and Zoology). In addition to lectures there are several interactive sessions (such as journal clubs) in which there will be discussions of key papers, experimental techniques and major concepts in the field.
Module Organiser: Dr Torsten Krude
(Inter-departmental Course, with Biochemistry)
This course aims to introduce and discuss the regulation of gene expression using a wide range of examples and different model organisms, and to introduce the range of methodology that is used in such studies. This course aims to take you from the level of familiarity with textbooks and reviews up to the level of reading, understanding and critically evaluating original research papers.
Control of gene expression is a topic that addresses the flow of information from the genome to the proteome. It includes the steps of gene transcription (i.e. mRNA synthesis), splicing, mRNA localization within the cell, and protein synthesis (i.e. mRNA translation). Understanding gene expression is important for understanding the fundamental functions of cells, how cells proliferate, how they respond to environmental stimuli, how they change their function during differentiation and how new complex patterns and structures emerge during development. An understanding of the molecular mechanisms that regulate gene expression is therefore an essential topic of contemporary cell and developmental biology. This module introduces and discusses the factors which catalyse and regulate transcription, RNA localization and translation. It also addresses newly emerging concepts, which provide additional levels of regulation and complexity. For instance, genome projects have focussed more and more attention on patterns of gene expression in different cells, different tissues and different organisms. The tool of RNA interference has been developed to knock-out the expression of any specific gene in living cells to study the function of that particular gene in vivo. Small non-coding RNAs have been identified as regulators for fine-tuning gene expression in many systems. Finally, the coordination of gene expression between the cell nucleus and organelles containing their own DNA will be discussed. This module is fully interdepartmental and the lectures are also taken by students reading Part II Biochemistry. The lectures are given in the Department of Biochemistry by members of the Departments of Zoology, Biochemistry and the Gurdon Institute.
Module Organiser: Dr Howard Baylis
How does a single cell, the fertilized egg, develop into an animal? This is one of the most fascinating and important questions in biology. In this course we address that question. The course is the first of two complementary modules (with ZL6), which can also be taken on their own.
Our current knowledge of the underlying molecular mechanisms that create cell diversity and pattern in the early embryo will be examined in depth. We will discuss how the experimental advantages of different organisms and the insights provided by comparing the developmental strategies of vertebrates and invertebrates have aided the discovery of the principles of development but also pose questions about diversity. We will address key aspects of early development, including how development is regulated, how the patterning of spatial information is established and how morphogenetic mechanisms shape the embryo.
At each stage we will discuss the cellular mechanisms required and the molecular networks that drive them. By comparing the development of different animals we aim to come to an understanding of strategies of animal development.
We aim to provide a course that is accessible to anyone doing Part II Zoology whatever your previous background.
Module Organiser: Dr Sam Brockington
(borrowed module from Plant Sciences)
The phylogenetic progression of land plants allows us to relate palaeohistorical origins, from algae to bryophytes and lycopods, to their evolutionary progression through ferns and conifers to angiosperms. The module will examine the molecular basis to morphological advances, as compared to the physiological progression. The diversity engendered within, and beneath forest canopies, and the historical ecology of today's landscape, complete our review of vegetation history and dynamics.
From an understanding of the phylogeny of land plants, when and where did the molecular homology of key higher plant traits originate in early land plant life forms?
What are the ecological determinants of fern, conifer and angiosperm distribution?
How predictable is evolution and what is the role of chance versus convergence in explaining the evolution of diversity across time and space?
When conifer and angiosperm canopies diversified, were ferns and bryophytes able to proliferate in the shade?
What is the evidence for evo-devo origins of the angiosperm flower, co-evolution of flower structure and associated pollinators?
What determines diversity in modern forests, and how has man shaped the landscape we see in Europe today?
This module allows the molecular phylogenies and homologies of key plant traits to be mapped on to climatic limitations, throughout land plant evolution. It represents an exciting opportunity to study the ecological determinants of diversity and learn how we can integrate modern concepts of ecology and evolution using reproductive and physiological traits.

German companies complain about increasing trade barriers
Survey shows sad record even before Russia-Ukraine crisis
© Jan-Otto / E+ / Getty Images
The Russian attack on Ukraine and the resulting consequences for the economy act like a burning glass on the situation of German companies active abroad: Even before the war began, they were increasingly encountering trade barriers around the world. This shows the survey "Going International" from this year by the Association of German Chambers of Commerce and Industry (DIHK).
Monday, 07.03.2022
Around 2,700 companies with cross-border operations took part in the survey in the first half of February. According to their own statements, a good half (54 percent) of them feel an acute increase in hurdles on their international business. By comparison, 2017 not even a third of companies registered an increase in trade barriers.
On the list of the biggest trade barriers – before the war in Ukraine – the sanctions mentioned by 24 percent took the fifth place. However, companies in February had found "local certification requirements" and "increased security requirements" (49 percent each), as well as "non-transparent legislation" (33 percent) and tariffs (32 percent) to be even more of a hindrance.
And hopes for an upward trend this year – despite full order books – were already absent in the survey period: For 2022, 18 percent of the companies expect a plus for their foreign business, but 21 percent expect a minus. This is better than in the previous two years, but negative on balance.
The universally expected strong growth after the 2020 Corona low thus fails to materialize. Instead, the trade barriers created during the pandemic threaten to solidify and accelerate the tendency toward protectionism that was already evident before. In addition to this are the sanctions imposed on Russia with their still unclear consequences for world trade.
The export growth of six percent for 2022 previously forecast by the DIHK in its economic survey "can no longer be achieved," according to Treier. After all, companies are looking at high order backlogs. In order to reduce these, however, they must succeed in solving the problems in the supply chains.
The complete results of the survey, which was conducted in February and thus before the Russian invasion of Ukraine, can be downloaded here:

Später spielte er für die AKA Burgenland und ging 2006 in die Jugendabteilung des TSV 1860 München. 2007 gewann er mit dessen A-Junioren den DFB-Junioren-Vereinspokal, wobei er in der 90. Minute den entscheidenden Treffer beim 2:1-Finalsieg gegen den VfL Wolfsburg erzielte. 2008 wurde er Teil der Zweiten Mannschaft, für die er in der Regionalliga Süd zwölf Tore erzielte und acht weitere vorbereitete, womit er der Topscorer seines Teams war.

SV Sandhausen
Daraufhin wechselte er in die 3. Liga zum SV Sandhausen, bei dem er am 29. Juli 2009 sein Profidebüt gab, als er im ersten Heimspiel der Saison 2009/10 gegen den FC Carl Zeiss Jena in der 77. Minute für Julian Schauerte eingewechselt wurde. Auch im weiteren Verlauf der Spielzeit kam er fast ausschließlich von der Bank aufs Feld. In seinen 20 Partien wurde er 15-mal ein- und viermal – nach Beginn in der Startformation – ausgewechselt. Einmal kam er über die kompletten 90 Minuten zum Einsatz, nämlich beim 2:2 im Heimspiel am 17. Spieltag gegen Werder Bremen II. In diesem Spiel schoss er auch sein einziges Saisontor mit dem Treffer zum 1:1. Mit den Sandhausenern belegte er nach starkem Start, als man regelmäßig auf einem Aufstiegsplatz gestanden hatte, am Ende Platz 14. Daneben wurde er immer wieder in der zweiten Mannschaft in der siebtklassigen Landesliga Rhein-Neckar eingesetzt, mit der er in die Verbandsliga aufstieg und den BFV-Hoepfner-Cup gewann. Im Finale trat man ausschließlich mit Profis an und sicherte so für das erste Team die Teilnahme am DFB-Pokal 2010/11.

Rückkehr nach Österreich
Zur Spielzeit 2010/11 verpflichtete der österreichische Verein First Vienna FC Hosiner. Nach einer Saison, die der Stürmer mit 13 Saisontoren abschloss, wechselte er im Juni 2011 zum Bundesliga-Aufsteiger FC Trenkwalder Admira. Am 31. August 2012 verpflichtete ihn der FK Austria Wien; Hosiner unterschrieb bei dem Verein einen bis 2015 laufenden Vertrag. Am 13./14. Spieltag der Saison 2012/13 erzielte er in zwei aufeinanderfolgenden Spielen jeweils drei Treffer. Am Ende der Saison 2012/13 wurde Hosiner mit der Austria Österreichischer Meister und mit 32 Toren Torschützenkönig der Liga. Er wurde von den Trainern und Managern der österreichischen Fußball-Bundesliga zum besten Spieler der Saison 2012/13 gewählt.

Wechsel nach Frankreich
Durch seine hohe Torquote weckte Hosiner das Interesse bei Vereinen außerhalb Österreichs. So kam es, dass er im Sommer 2014 vom französischen Erstligisten Stade Rennes verpflichtet wurde.

Tumor-Operation und Wechsel zum 1. FC Köln
Im Jänner 2015 wurde beim Medizincheck beim 1. FC Köln, mit dem er sich über einen Wechsel einig war, ein zwei Kilogramm schwerer Tumor an Hosiners linker Niere entdeckt, der sich bereits seit fünf Jahren angesiedelt hatte. Anfang Februar wurde er erfolgreich operiert, elf Wochen nach der Operation spielte er Anfang Mai 2015 das erste Mal in der Reserve von Stades Rennes. Hosiner wechselte schließlich zur Saison 2015/16 auf Leihbasis zum 1. FC Köln. In seinem ersten Bundesligaspiel am 29. August 2015 (3. Spieltag) erzielte er beim 2:1-Sieg im Heimspiel gegen den Hamburger SV mit dem Treffer zum 1:1 in der 76. Minute auch sein erstes Tor. Am 24. März 2016 bestritt er während einer Länderspielpause sein erstes Pflichtspiel in der Regionalliga für die zweite Mannschaft des 1. FC Köln gegen den FC Kray, um der Mannschaft im Abstiegskampf zu helfen und Spielpraxis zu sammeln. Das Spiel wurde 4:2 gewonnen, wobei Hosiner das 2:1 für seine Mannschaft erzielte.

Hosiner bei Union Berlin
Zur Saison 2016/17 kehrte Hosiner nicht nach Rennes zurück, sondern wechselte in die 2. Bundesliga zum 1. FC Union Berlin, bei dem er einen bis zum 30. Juni 2019 datierten Vertrag erhielt.

Erneute Rückkehr nach Österreich
Zur Saison 2018/19 kehrte Hosiner nach Österreich zurück, wo er sich dem SK Sturm Graz anschloss, bei dem er einen bis Juni 2021 laufenden Vertrag erhielt. In seiner ersten Saison bei Sturm kam er zu 14 Bundesligaeinsätzen, in denen er drei Tore erzielte.

Stationen fünf, sechs und sieben in Deutschland
Im September 2019 wechselte Hosiner wieder nach Deutschland, wo er sich dem Drittligaaufsteiger Chemnitzer FC anschloss. Zwischen dem 20. und dem 23. Spieltag erzielte der Österreicher jeweils zwei Tore pro Spiel, was vor ihm noch keinem anderen Drittligaspieler gelungen war. Bis Saisonende kam Hosiner auf 19 Treffer in 28 Spielen, mit Chemnitz stieg er allerdings nach nur einer Saison wieder aus der 3. Liga ab.

Zur Saison 2020/21 wechselte er zum Drittligisten Dynamo Dresden, bei dem er einen bis Juni 2022 laufenden Vertrag erhielt. Mit Dresden stieg Hosiner zu Saisonende in die 2. Bundesliga auf, mit zehn Toren in 34 Drittligaeinsätzen trug er einen großen Teil zum Aufstieg bei, er war mannschaftsintern hinter Christoph Daferner (zwölf Tore) der zweitbeste Torschütze der Dresdner. In der 2. Bundesliga verlor er jedoch schnell seinen Platz in der Mannschaft und stand bis zur Winterpause nur noch einmal in der Startelf, ab Mitte November 2021 gehörte er gar nie mehr dem Spieltagskader an.

Hosiner verließ Dynamo im Jänner 2022 und wechselte zum Regionalligisten Kickers Offenbach.

Nationalmannschaft
Für die österreichischen Nachwuchsnationalmannschaften spielte Hosiner regelmäßig. Für die letzten beiden EM-Qualifikationsspiele im Herbst 2011 wurde der Stürmer von Interimsteamchef Willibald Ruttensteiner erstmals in die A-Nationalmannschaft berufen und absolvierte sein Debüt am 7. Oktober 2011 im Spiel in Baku gegen Aserbaidschan.
Am 29. Jänner 2013 wurde Hosiner von Teamchef Marcel Koller in die österreichische Nationalmannschaft einberufen; am 22. März 2013 beim 6:0-Sieg gegen die Färöer erzielte er seine einzigen beiden Tore.

An auxiliary chamber for inhaled-drugs includes a hollow tube body and a hollow side tube; and a unidirectional air valve which only allows air from an inlet flowing to an outlet end is located at the inlet end of the hollow tube body, wherein the outlet end of the hollow tube body is connected to an endotracheal tube. The hollow side tube connects with a lateral hole of the hollow tube body at one end, and a special universal adapter at the other end. The special universal adapter has a small through hole which is used to accommodate an inhaler therein to release inhaled drugs in the inhaler into the hollow tube body, and the inhaled drugs moves from the inlet end with air flow to the outlet end after entering the hollow tube body to help patients with respiratory failure take medicine.
This invention relates to an auxiliary chamber for inhaled-drugs, and more particularly to provide a novel auxiliary chamber which helps patients with respiratory failure easily take inhaled-drugs.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a chronic respiratory disease, related to emphysema, chronic bronchitis and asthmatic bronchitis. Each of the above disease can occur individually or be accompanied by other diseases. With the progress of the disease, resistance of the airflow (in and out of the lung) increases and the airway generates some abnormal inflammatory responses to hazardous substances, causing variety of respiratory symptoms, including chronic cough, sputum, dyspnea, air exchange problems, limited respiratory capacity and recurrent respiratory tract infection.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a very common disease, the mortality rate of which is the sixth globally, the fourth in the US, and the eleventh in Taiwan. Furthermore, according to most current assessment conducted by WHO, the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease would likely rank the third in the mortality rate globally in 2030. Clinical studies indicate that long-term smoking is the primary factor causing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. In addition, frequent exposure to respiratory irritants and dusty places, respiratory infections and genetic inheritance (lack of alpha-1-antitrypsin; ATT) are all possible dangerous factors causing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is an abnormal function degenerative disease and there is no effective way to cure this disease currently. The primary goal for curing the patients with such disease is to maintain substantial degree of life quality by maintaining the patients' existing respiratory functions to the best condition. However, with the progress of the disease, the patient's lung loses the function of air exchange and enters the stage of respiratory failure, namely Stage IV of this disease. At this time, the purpose of the medical treatment is to reduce the airflow resistance in and out of the lung, and maintain ventilation within residual lung tissues to further provide adequate gas exchange to the patient. Currently, the triple therapy is the most effective medical treatment for the patients with respiratory failure, which includes inhaled steroid, long acting β2 agonist and long acting anti-cholinergic agent. Theoretically, the patient can take all clinical inhaled drugs, however, the inhaled drugs on the market are with their own specially-designed auxiliary chambers, and most of them are designed for the patients who have not yet had respiratory failure. As to the patients having chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with respiratory failure, once the patient needs a mechanical ventilator as respiratory support for a long period of time, how to appropriately provide inhaled drugs to the patient is a challenge in current clinical practice.
Therefore, there remains a need for a new and improved auxiliary chamber to overcome the abovementioned issues to effectively help the patients with respiratory failure take the inhaled-drugs.
Conventionally, most of the inhaled-drug auxiliary chambers are designed for the patients who have not yet had experienced respiratory failure. As to the patients having chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with respiratory failure, once the patient has to use mechanical ventilator for a long period of time, how to appropriately provide inhaled drugs to the patient is a challenge in current clinical practice.
a hollow side tube connecting with the lateral hole of the hollow tube body at one end, and a special universal adapter engaged at the other end, the special universal adapter having a small through hole which is used to accommodate all inhalation drugs provider devices either a metered-dose inhaler or a new soft mist inhaler, named "Respimat" therein to release inhaled drugs into the hollow tube body, and moving from the inlet end with air flow to the outlet end after entering the hollow tube body.
Comparing with conventional techniques, the inhaled-drug auxiliary chamber in the present invention can provide appropriate inhaled drugs to the patients having chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with respiratory failure. Namely, the patients can take the inhaled-drugs more easily.
The present invention together with the above and other advantages may best be understood from the following detailed description of the embodiments of the invention illustrated in the drawings below.
FIG. 1 illustrates a three-dimensional view of the present invention connecting with a mechanical ventilator and an endotracheal tube.
FIG. 2 illustrates a sectional view of the present invention.
FIG. 3A illustrates a three-dimensional view of a universal adaptor in the present invention.
FIG. 3B illustrates a top view of the universal adaptor in the present invention.
FIG. 4 depicts a schematic view of a use case for assembling a metered-dose inhaler in the present invention.
FIG. 5 illustrates a schematic view of a use case for assembling a soft-mist inhaler in the present invention.
wherein the hollow tube body (10) and the hollow side tube (20) are made by anti-static plastic material.
While using the auxiliary chamber in the present invention, the user can connect the inlet end of the hollow tube body (10) with the mechanical ventilator (31) via the snake-shaped tube (30), and then engage the inhaler (33) with the special universal adapter (21). Since the special universal adapter (21) is made by silicone or rubber materials, the small through holes (211) thereon are elastic, such that the inhaler (33) can be squeezed into the small through holes (211) and can be sealed therein. The user can further connect the outlet end with the endotracheal tube (32). After the assembling process, the mechanical ventilator (31) can be turned on to pump the air into the hollow tube body (10) from the inlet end, and the inhaled drugs (40) in the inhaler (33) are released into the hollow side tube (20), such that the inhaled drugs (40) can be delivered to the patient's lung along with the air pumped from the inlet end, wherein the inhaler (33) available in the market so far can be illustrated in FIG. 4 or 5, which can be easily found in the market.
a hollow side tube connecting with the lateral hole of the hollow tube body at one end, and a special universal adapter at the other end, the special universal adapter having a small through hole which is used to accommodate an inhaler therein to release inhaled drugs in the inhaler into the hollow tube body, and the inhaled drugs moving from the inlet end with air flow to the outlet end after entering the hollow tube body.

I have been trying out a few products from the Liz Earle Skincare range for a couple of weeks now and I have to say that I have completely fallen in love with Liz Earle. The products instantly feel amazing when I apply them and I have noticed a change in the appearance of my skin ever since. The products in which I have been using are the 200ml Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser, 200ml Instant Boost Skin Tonic, 50ml Skin Repair Light Moisturiser for Combination/Oily Skin and the 75ml Liz Earle Deep Cleansing Mask.
I decided to join the ever growing hype and purchase this cleanser, (in which I'm sure every beauty guru will have know and heard of) and I have to say I have definitely fallen in love with it.It works absolute wonders in removing your makeup quickly and efficiently and I think it definitely compares to my trustee Simple Cleanser, in which I love very much. To use this cleanser, I apply a small amount onto the palm of my hands and then massage it gently all over my face in circular motions. I then rinse the muslin cloth under warm water and begin to wipe it over my face to remove the cleanser as well as my makeup. It removes my makeup almost instantly without any hassle and I don't have to use a separate cleanser for my eye makeup, it works that well. It leaves my skin feeling so much cleaner and radiant, it's definitely worth the money.
I use this toner on a cotton wool pad, after I have cleansed my skin. I apply a generous amount (just enough to soak the whole cotton wool pad) and then begin to swipe it over my face, especially over the areas which are more spot prone. This toner feels so hydrating and refreshing as soon as you apply it to the skin and I have definitely noticed a difference in the appearance of my skin since using it.
This Liz Earle moisturiser is probably one of the best moisturisers I have ever used. It doesn't feel heavy on my skin or leave it feeling greasy or oily around my t-zone. It instantly makes my skin feel so smooth, and is not at all drying. I will definitely be re-purchasing this product.
I have only used the deep cleansing mask a couple of times since I have purchased this product, so I haven't had a chance to fully try it out. Yet, despite this I have enjoyed using this mask. It doesn't cause any irritation or feel harsh on my sensitive skin and I have seen a improvement in my acne prone skin so far. I apply a generous amount all over my face using my hands, I then leave it on for around 10 minutes and finally remove it using the sponge provided.
Thanks for reading and feel free to let me know your thoughts!

BioWare to Completely Overhaul Anthem
Anthem released earlier this year to a less than stellar reception from Fans and Reviewers alike. Anthem was criticized heavily for certain gameplay elements such as loot drops or game structure. BioWare has also had some departures lately with their Senior Producer and Lead Producer leaving the studio a few months ago. EA and BioWare haven't really changed much about the game besides a few patches, for the most part, they've been quiet.
It seems as though there will be lots of changes very soon. Jason Schreier from Kotaku has released an extensive article on how EA and BioWare plan to completely overhaul Anthem. It's been said that a lot of the details of what the overhaul will truly be is still up in the air, there's also no timeline for release in sight either. It's being said that the game could be overhauled all at once or could have some updates that are put in periodically.
The new Anthem overhaul is being classified by those close to the project as "Anthem 2.0″ or "Anthem Next". It seems that BioWare wants to rebuild Anthem into a more enjoyable experience that what most perceived back in February. Many felt they just abandoned the game, but it seems that feeling is false and will be put to bed in the due time.

More than a quarter of the world's population eats insects, and the rest of us have plenty of reasons to do the same. They're high in fat and protein, and they're less resource-intensive to raise, which is better for the environment. They could make for a tasty way to feed our growing planet—if you can get past the "yuck" factor.
By 2050 we'll need to feed two billion more people. Click here for a special eight-month series exploring how we can do that—without overwhelming the planet.
