It never ceases to amaze me how much I can learn from my children. While I like to think they learn from me as well, I still need to remind myself how much they can figure things out themselves when given the chance. We would'nt give them the answers on a test, or do their homework for them.
Are our answers the only "answers"?
So why then is it so hard for us as parents to take a step back instead, and let them find their own solutions? Why do we feel the need to give them "the" answers? Are our answers the only "answers"?
We too need to look inside for the answers. Sometimes it is not so easy as a parent to do this. Sometimes we avoid looking inside for our own answers and we look to others instead. Looking for that perfect answer of what exactly we should do in a particular situation with our children. We second guess ourselves and miss what has been there all along, what is right in front of us: the answers are inside.
Look inside. I quarantee you will find the answer.
Eighteen years ago, I worked in an agency that helped children who had social and emotional difficulties stemming from their "learning disabilities" (L.D.). At that time I had the opportunity to work with a group of boys who were identified as being "gifted L.D.". They were an amazing bunch of boys. They had high I.Q. scores in certain areas of their abilities and deficits in the areas specific to their L.D. (which usually translated to being extremely sophisticated with their words on one hand yet socially ackward on the other). Read the rest of this entry »
Yesterday my eldest son, who was curious about the work that my husband Chris and I were doing on the website, decided he wanted to contirbute by making up his own language and post it on the website. He drew a picture and began to create his own symbolic language. Afterwards I thought to myself, that's such a juicy metaphor for how kids operate.
They really do have their own language don't they, and as their parents we are constantly trying to figure it out. Then like any new language one is trying to learn, there is only so much we can understand at any point in our learning before we scratch our head and say, "what does that mean?" (read – why is he doing that?) Or maybe we dont understand it because it is out of context, or there is a word we just are not getting the jist of because we are thinking in our first language.

A while back my husband and I decided to structure in some special time with the kids because of our work schedule and feeling we did not have a lot of time together as a family. While we had tried family game night where we play a board game (usually one that is cooperative rather than competitive) it just wasn't as fun for the adults as when we were kids.

Love Story
You and Me… It almost sounds like a favorite love song on the radio. Where did you go? Where did you allow me to go? Where have our love gone? Can we ever get back to the place where we held each other close at the movies? Or when you would allow me to feed you fruit?
Remember when we talked really fast on the phone from excitement of just hearing each other's voice? Remember when I would finish your sentences and you would finish mine? Do you still have that favorite shirt that you wore on our first date?
Should I report you missing to the police? I haven't seen you or the likes of you? Maybe I should put out a request for everyone reading this….Has anyone see my friend called love? My love is tall, dark and handsome or could be short and fat. Honestly, I can't really describe love at the moment, but if you find love could you tell them to call me?-LK

Pre-Implantation Genetic Diagnosis
The concept:
Apart from rare exceptions, all the cells in an embryo contain the same DNA. So, when we genetically test one cell of the embryo it is as if we tested the whole embryo.
What are the indications for PGD?
PGD has many indications. Here are the main ones:
• PGD mainly allows the couple undergoing IVF to avoid giving birth to a child carrying or suffering from a hereditary disease present in the family.
• A wider genetic screening can be used in case of repetitive miscarriage to check whether the miscarriages are due to a genetic problem.
• In some very particular cases, and when it is really necessary, PGD is used for gender selection.
How is PGD performed?
PGD is performed during early embryo development on cleaving stage embryos (day 3) or blastocysts (day 5) -Before the embryos are transferred back to the woman's uterus.
One or more cells are taken out from the embryo using a very delicate biopsy technique and sent to the genetic lab for testing. Only genetically normal embryos are transferred back to the woman's uterus.
What are the ethical issues?
PGD is a great technique as long as it is used for the good reasons. The misuse of this technique can lead to very serious ethical issues as many embryos can be discarded for the wrong selection criteria. Hence, at Azoury IVF Clinic we do not promote this technique and we only offer it when necessary after serious discussion with the couple.
Is PGD available in Azoury IVF Clinic?
Blastomere biopsy has been established in Azoury IVF Clinic for more than a decade now. Our embryologists have become experts and we practically never lose embryos while performing this technique.
More recently, our embryologists underwent a tropho-ectoderm biopsy training and this technique is now available at Azoury IVF Clinic.
• Microarray NGS and PCR analysis for genetic disorders are sent abroad for analysis in specialized laboratories.

Good day fellow Avcommers. A friendly plea to the AME community.
I apologise if a topic along these lines is already in discussion, if so please point me in the right direction.
My wife is a General Practitioner while I am an airline pilot. We thought it a good idea that she become an AME considering the obvious link. We found the course that is offered and run directly by the SACAA and signed up for that. The cost of the course as well as lost income over the period of the course caused some financial tension but that is a secondary issue in this case.
My wife completed the course nearly 3 months ago and the CAA has still not granted her AME status, with no explanation for the delay. The rest of the group that completed the course with her have also had no word.
I am aware of the recent IT issues at the CAA but when these doctors call to follow up they are given no clear answers with no time frame.
So my plea is to anyone who is intimately familiar with these processes and if there is anything we can do to get this done as this was an investment that now needs to pay itself back.
AME Licensing SACAA

The frequency of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has risen worldwide in parallel with the obesity epidemic; however, there are still no approved therapies. The more advanced form of the disease, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), is associated with progressive fibrosis and an increased risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In the last decade, genetic studies have identified new proteins that participate not only in the development of hepatic steatosis, but also disease progression to NASH, cirrhosis, and HCC. Meanwhile, research is starting to emerge describing underlying molecular pathways that mediate alterations in lipid and glucose metabolism, which leads to fat accumulation in liver. Therefore, the goals of this conference are to: 1) Explore the genetic contributions to NAFLD, and how these insights might reveal the sequence of events that cause NASH and cirrhosis; 2) Clarify the key molecular events in NAFLD and NASH, focusing on pathways that might provide therapeutic opportunities; and 3) Highlight emerging therapies for NASH. This conference comes at an opportunistic time, when several clinical trials are scheduled to conclude, providing critical data to enable scientists to refine research strategies for the future.

Expect Luke Bryan 's next album to maintain a balance between upbeat, pop-inspired singles and lower-tempo, country-sounding deep cuts. Savannah Jones paid around $700 total for the trip, including tickets, a hotel and gas. The country star was supposed to perform at MC Farms on Oct. 3, but in this case, rain was not a good thing and caused the concert to be canceled.
One of the biggest stars in country music, Bryan announced the dates and locations for his 11th annual Farm Tour, a collection of concerts held in rural areas to support farming communities across America, earlier this year.
Luke Bryan has released the video for Knockin' Boots," the latest single from the Georgia native's yet-untitled forthcoming album. The video features Bryan performing the song in an open-aired bar for a multi-ethnic crowd, who dance, make out and eventually become soaked in a downpour.

Tragically, Ben died in 2014, which prompted Luke and Caroline to step in and help raise his sister and brother-in-law's kids. At the time, Til was 16, and Kris and Jordan were college-age.
When he was just 19 and about to leave home for Nashville, Bryan lost his older brother, Chris, in a car accident. Twelve years ago, tragedy struck again when Luke lost his sister, Kelly, unexpectedly, while she was at home with her young son. The cause of death has still not been determined. In 2014 Kelly's husband Ben died of a heart attack. Since then, Luke and his wife Caroline, have taken their 3 children under their wings.
I've got some stuff that I've looked at, that I'm going into the studio to record, that sounds very vintage-like, but then I've got some stuff that has some new and different sounds on it," Bryan told Taste of Country at Hometown Rising 2019. I think I always kind of have to marry the two.
PLEASANTVILLE – Local officials expect about 20,000 people to descend upon the Miller Family Farms property Saturday for country artist Luke Bryan's appearance there.
Luke's first taste of the music industry was as a songwriter for a publishing house in Nashville where he wrote some successful country hits like the title track of Travis Tritt's 'My Honky Tonk History' album.
The biggest reason you should have attended opening night of Luke Bryan's Farm Tour is that it supports a great cause. Much like Farm Aid, which took place just last weekend at Alpine Valley, Bryan's annual Farm Tour raises money and awareness for farmers and farm towns in the United States.
Many people attending the concert have ties to farmers. Gerri Bauer drove from Fort Atkinson and was one of the first people in line to get into the gates.
Luke Bryan and Caroline Boyer have been through their share of ups and downs after nearly two decades together, but have stayed strong thanks to their rock-solid relationship. When these two college sweethearts first started dating, life had other plans—but they made it work in the end.
Although the headlining set was hosted in a small town, nothing about Luke's Thursday night performance was small. The hits were huge, the setlist was lengthy, the sea of fans extended throughout the farmland and Luke's energy was at a 10 until the very end.
Brett's barn is filled with rescue animals including a special white pony. The barn houses a rescue goat named Goober Goldsby (who was abandoned shortly after birth), several miniature horses, pigs, and at least one donkey. Caroline revealed that she had promised Brett a pony and she delivered her promise via a special white horse named Kilo… We always knew we would find (for Brett) the perfect pony, but never thought she wouldn't be here to love it" she wrote via an Instagram post.
RICHLAND, MI — Thunder rolled in as Mitchell Tenpenny took the stage at Luke Bryan's Farm Tour. Five minutes into his set, the first of the night, he was cut off with an announcement for the crowd to head back to their cars.
Luke Bryan performs on the Iowa State Fair Grandstand stage during the the fair on Friday, Aug. 16, 2019 in Des Moines. LUKE'S TEAM WILL HELP YOU PLAN & HOST A MEMORABLE EVENT.
From the time he released his debut studio album I'll Stay Me has been a fixture at the top of the American country charts. I'll Stay Me hit No. 2 on the country charts, and so did his follow-up, 2009's Doin' My Thing. That sophomore album also provided his first two No. 1 singles, the winking Rain is a Good Thing" and the classic country downer Someone Else Calling You Baby." Since then, he's been unstoppable. From 2011's I Don't Want This Night to End" to 2016's Fast," 14 of Bryan's 15 singles have topped the US Country Airplay charts, with That's My Kind of Night" just missing out at a peak of No. 2. His two most recent albums, 2013's Crash My Party and 2015's Kill the Lights not only topped the country charts, but also spent time at No. 1 on the US charts at large.
Billboard top 200 Chart. Illinois has already earned this past CMA New Artist of the Yea five consecutive No.1 country singles, and his work across both Illinois and his debut album, Bring You Back, has earned Eldredge has his place among country's finest young talents.
According to an interview with HuffPost , Luke was three years older than Caroline—a proud member of the Alpha Delta Pi sorority —during college and he ended up going to Nashville to start off his career while she finished her degree. All hope was not lost, though, as fate brought the couple together again when the two ended up in the same town at the same time.
The concert was amazing from start to finish. The first opening act was not the greatest, being that I've never heard of him; but Cole was great and of course Luke was phenomenal. The atmosphere was pretty good. The crowd was a little out of control in my section, which I could of done without but, majority of the night was incident free. The staff were quite helpful and knowledgeable. The venue itself was fairly reasonable except for the price. The cost of food and beverages was outrageous. That was my one main complaint. The price of the show was semi reasonable and more affordable that certainly the ACC now called Scotiabank Arena. Had a great time, with great music, great vibe. Will definitely be back again for another show in the near future.
In the summer of 2018, Luke opened Nashville's only six-floor entertainment facility in the heart of Music City, LUKE'S 32 BRIDGE FOOD + DRINK. The name was inspired by Luke's childhood home near Route 32 Bridge in Lee County, Georgia.
Yes! Luke Bryan will tour in 2019. The Sunset Repeat Tour 2019 kicks off in Philadelphia on May 31, 2019 and wraps up in Raleigh, North Carolina on October 12. Check the complete list of current Luke Bryan tour dates 2019 to stay up-to-date and find tickets for a concert near you.
Luke Bryan didn't play on a farm as initially planned, but he still made a stop in south central Kansas for his Farm Tour. Wet weather necessitated the last-minute move from rural property near Douglass in Butler County to the Kansas State Fairgrounds in Hutchinson.
Thursday's performance not only reminded fans of Luke Bryan's small town roots, but it served as a reminder of just how big of a star Luke Bryan is. With hits like "Country Girl (Shake It For Me)," "That's My Kind of Night" and "Knockin' Boots," just to name a few, there's a reason why Bryan fills seats (and in this case farms) every time he comes to Wisconsin.
Caroline said that Luke was nervous when they first saw each other, and she was the one to make the first move. "He was always a gentleman," Caroline told People "We hung out as friends first and he never made a move on me. I kissed him first! He was always so scared of making a girl feel uncomfortable, he wouldn't cross a line." After that second first kiss, the duo became inseparable.
Luke drew his inspiration for 32 Bridge from his childhood in Georgia. 32 Bridge is a bridge that crosses over the Flint River and marks the line between Worth and Lee counties. Luke grew up in the area, learning to hunt, fish and enjoy the outdoors with his family. The area has also inspired much of his music and new restaurant, LUKE'S 32 BRIDGE Food + Drink, offering heritage recipes made modern with the comfort of casual home cooking. Enjoy some of Luke's favorites including gourmet burgers and fresh blue fin tuna sushi. Luke's place wouldn't be complete without live music every day available on multiple floors including the rooftop patio featuring the best view downtown.
Thomas Luther "Luke" Bryan (born July 17, 1976) is an American country music singer and songwriter. He began his music career writing songs for Travis Tritt and Billy Currington – before signing with Capitol Nashville with his cousin, Chad Christopher Boyd, in 2007.
Although his name on the marquee alone is enough to draw thousands of screaming fans, Luke Bryan brought along some serious star power for his Marshall performance.
To put it nicely, some of today's country music stars aren't quite as authentically country" as some of the legends of the genre were known to be. Not Luke Bryan. Bryan grew up in the tiny town of Leesburg, Georgia, spending whole afternoons working on his father's peanut farm. But as anyone who has listened to Bryan's music can attest, he projects a vibe that's more at home in frats than it is on the farm. He's the real deal on that front, too: He was a Sigma Chi at Georgia Southern. Simply put, Luke Bryan is the total package in the modern country music landscape.
His own debut album 'I'll stay me' was released in August 2007 with Bryan being involved in the writing of all 11 songs. After a steady rise in popularity, his forth single 'Do I', released in May 2009, got all the way to number 2 in the Country charts. Luke's next two singles, 'Rain Is a Good Thing' and 'Someone Else Calling You Baby' appeared on his critically acclaimed second album 'Doin' my Thing' and finally cracked the number one spot on the Country charts.
The much-anticipated Luke Bryan show in Michigan, part of the country star's Farm Tour, was called off early after a shaky start Friday, Sept. 27, as severe weather passed through the area.
The rain caused Bryan to reschedule Thursday night's concert near Louisburg. The Georgia native spent most of 2018 on the road for his What Makes You Country Tour, in support of his album of the same name.
Loganville, GA native, singer-songwriter Jon Langston grew up on music like his heroes Alan Jackson and the Eagles. In 2013 with the release of his first song, Forever Girl," Jon's live shows began to grow, and he found himself opening for Chase Rice at Georgia's Kennesaw State University. Since then, the now 27-year-old Music City resident has not only signed a publishing deal with Sony ATV and is managed by KP Entertainment, but has fostered his own voice in country music and landed a record deal with Universal Music Group Nashville.
The cost of Luke Bryan tickets can vary based on a host of factors. Please see below for a look at how Luke Bryan ticket prices vary by city, and scroll up on this page to see Luke Bryan tour dates and ticket prices for upcoming concerts in your city.
Bryan's sixth studio album debuted No.1 atop the Billboard 200 charts. Luke Bryan moved to Nashville after high school to pursue his dream of a country music career, he is now one of the hottest artists in Country music.
In between tour dates, Bryan will make a stop in Grand Junction, Colo., to headline the 2019 Country Jam. He'll also host a two-night tour party at Alabama's the Wharf Amphitheater in July. Bryan's tour name comes from a line in his hit song "Sunrise, Sunburn, Sunset." His last album was 2017's What Makes You Country.
The Bryan family was first rocked by the death of Luke's brother Chris (who died in a car accident in 2000). Sadly, seven years later, Luke's sister, Kelly, died suddenly as well, leaving her husband, Ben, to care for their three children.

A successful start to 2016 for TFN
January saw TFN start 2016 with an exciting week of events for our core London and Young Funding Networks.
We started by helping LSE celebrate their RAG week by hosting a Young Funding Network (YFN) live crowdfunding event on 26th January. We enjoyed music from LSE's jazz band and heard from Macquarie Group, who support YFN events, as well as Lensational, who had pitched the year before. The projects that pitched, ChipMonk, People Matching Places and Nusa Social Enterprise, were all inspiring projects led by students from various London universities. The kindness of our audience meant that we were able to exceed our target of raising £1,000 for each project. Go to YFN's Facebook page to see the photos from the night.
The live crowdfunding excitement continued on 28th January at Goodman Derrick when we held our first core TFN London event of the year. Four fantastic charities pitched to our generous audience who were able to raise an incredible £35,000 for North London Cares,Nyaka AIDS Orphan Project, CleanConscience and JAGS Foundation! Our guests also enjoyed an exhibition of photos from Lensational and a report back from previously funded project, Pardada Pardadi Educational Society.
Thank you to everybody who came and made sure January was such a success for TFN! If you'd like to see what our live crowdfunding events are like, take a look at our YouTubechannel and come to one of our events!

Viewpoint Gallery will present the work of Christopher Rauschenberg in an exhibition called Paris: Walking with Atget. For these photographs, Rauschenberg revisited Paris locations photographed by the French photographer Eugene Atget in the early 20th century, rephotographing the same views at the end of the 20th century to reveal what had changed and what had not. Paris: Walking with Atget includes 40 of Rauschenberg's silver prints, many of them paired with copies of Atget's original images.
During three trips to Paris in 1997 and 1998, Christopher Rauschenberg rephotographed 500 images made by Atget between 1890 and 1927. Whereas Atget photographed with glass plates in a view camera and made contact prints with printing out paper (choices that even to his contemporaries seemed old-fashioned), Rauschenberg used a 35mm camera, making darkroom enlargements onto gelatin silver paper. In 2007, 75 pairs of images by Atget and Rauschenberg were published in an article, Paris Changing: Revisiting Atget's Paris, in Lensculture (www.lensculture.com/rauschenberg.html).
Christopher Rauschenberg has photographed in over twenty countries and has had over 100 solo exhibits in Europe, South America, and the United States. He is the co-founder and Board Chairman of Blue Sky Gallery in Portland, Oregon, where he has produced hundreds of photographic exhibits. He organized the Portland Grid Project of two-dozen photographers who have for the last 17 years systematically documented the city of Portland. His website is www.christopherrauschenberg.com.

Rights accessOpen Access
Since its introduction in 1985, there has been a lot of activity in the eld of second generation still image coding. In the last years, the approach has been extended to video coding and has been the basis for European RACE research pro jects. The objective of this paper is to summarize the main concepts underlying second generation video coding and to present the approach taken in the RACE pro ject MORPHECO in the context of segmentation-based video coding schemes. Comments and results on the evolution of the system, in the framework of the MPEG-4 SESAME proposal presented on behalf of the RACE pro ject MAVT are also outlined. In order to have a more complete paper, current state of the art in MPEG-4 activities are also summarized1. The paper ends with conclusions and new trends in the eld. A basic introduction to the main characteristics and limitations of rst generation coding will be also presented in order to have a self-contained paper. A more complete description of second generation video coding and in particular of the approach presented here can be found in34

Epistaxis (Nosebleeds)
Bleeding from the nose is a common medical problem. Trauma, facial fractures, sinusitis, allergies and nasal sprays are some common causes of epistaxis. Most nosebleeds may be easily controlled with pressure, cauterization or packing. Infrequently, epistaxis may caused by tumors, medication toxicity, liver failure or blood disorders. Most tumors may be biopsied and/or removed endoscopically through the nose. Occasionally, nose bleeds may be severe and/or persistent which do not respond to conservative treatments. Minimally invasive endoscopic techniques stop bleeding from different blood vessels in the nose without the discomfort of nasal packing, and avoid the serious risks of embolization.

Article about rosacea - technical
Rosacea is a common condition that usually begins after the second to third decade of life. Clinically, rosacea is characterized by central facial erythema that may wax and wane in intensity, erythematous papules, pustules, and telangiectasias.
Facial flushing is a common feature. The presence of telangiectasia and the occurrence of flushing help distinguish rosacea from acne, as does the absence of comedos. The clinical course of rosacea is chronic, with periods of exacerbation and remission.
Common triggers of rosacea include alcohol, exercise, extremes of temperature, and hot or spicy foods. Medications that produce vasodilation, such as niacin, can precipitate flushing and exacerbate rosacea.
Clinical Subtypes of Rosacea
Various subtypes of rosacea are recognized.
Papulopustular (inflammatory) rosacea
Papulopustular (inflammatory) rosacea is characterized by erythema (most commonly involving the cheeks, nose, inner forehead and chin), telangiectasias, and inflammatory lesions (papules and pustules).
Erythematotelangiectatic rosacea
Erythematotelangiectatic rosacea is characterized by diffuse erythema and telangiectasia with no or very few inflammatory lesions.
Ocular rosacea
Ocular rosacea is common and can include blepharitis and conjunctival hyperemia or, less commonly, iritis, episcleritis, superficial punctuate keratopathy, and corneal neovascularization.
Phymatous rosacea
Phymatous rosacea is fortunately uncommon overall, occurring more frequently in males. It is characterized by localized sebaceous hyperplasia and fibrosis with development of bulbous and lobular proliferations of affected tissue. The nose (rhinophyma) is the most commonly affected anatomic site.
The pathogenesis of rosacea is poorly understood, although several associated mechanisms have been reported. Proliferation of commensal Demodex mites may play a role, with papulopustular involvement through stimulation of inflammatory pathways, but it is not believed to be a major factor in many cases. It has been suggested that Helicobacter pylori may play a role in the pathogenesis of rosacea, although this theory remains controversial. There is no definitive evidence that any bacterium plays a role in the pathogenesis of rosacea. Several vascular inflammatory and tissue degradative mechanisms are believed to be operative, including increased facial blood flow, oral-thermal flushing, upregulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) with reduced antioxidant reserve in skin, and upregulation of matrix metalloproteinase enzymes (MMPs) involved in dermal matrix degradation.
The diagnosis of rosacea is made on the basis of clinical evaluation. There is no definitive diagnostic testing or histologic pattern that confirms the diagnosis.
No curative therapy is available for rosacea, although treatment may effectively reduce severity of visible signs and symptoms and may control the intensity and frequency of rosacea flares. Therefore, it is important for the clinician to define treatment goals and set expectations with patients. It is also important to characterize the subtype of rosacea, because different clinical features respond differently to specific forms of therapy. Optimal therapeutic results often require a combination of medical and physical treatment modalities.
Avoidance of triggers such as alcohol, hot or spicy foods, and heat is an important part of the therapeutic regimen offered to patients with rosacea. Sunscreens are likewise useful to reduce erythema, decrease telangiectasia formation, reduce production of ROS, and decrease dermal matrix degradation. Skin sensitivity increases in rosacea, as a result of an inherent increase in transepidermal water loss. Therefore, daily use of a gentle cleanser and a moisturizer is a vital component of the overall treatment program. Proper skin care has been shown to augment the therapeutic benefit of topical medical treatment for rosacea.
Several medications are helpful for the treatment of inflammatory lesions and perilesional erythema. Topical therapies that are effective for papulopustular rosacea of mild to moderate severity include sulfacetamide-sulfur, metronidazole, and azelaic acid. Trials of topical therapy should be continued for 8 to 12 weeks to assess response. When successful, therapy markedly decreases inflammatory lesions and partially reduces erythema and disease-related symptoms (e.g., stinging and burning). Topical agents may be used in combination with systemic therapy in patients with more severe involvement.
Systemic therapy for rosacea has conventionally utilized oral antibiotics, especially tetracycline derivatives (e.g., tetracycline, doxycycline, minocycline). Although there is no definitive evidence that the antimicrobial action of these agents contributes to their efficacy against rosacea, tetracyclines have several anti-inflammatory effects unrelated to antimicrobial activity, such as downregulation of several MMPs, and these anti-inflammatory effects may provide much of the therapeutic benefit in rosacea.
Doxycycline monohydrate in an anti-inflammatory dose, formulated as a 40 mg controlled-release capsule taken once daily, is approved by the FDA for the treatment of inflammatory rosacea, including long-term treatment. This formulation differs from other available tetracycline formulations, including doxycycline, in that it results in blood levels below those required for antibiotic activity without loss of anti-inflammatory activity, as long as it is administered no more than once daily.
Data for both short-term treatment (16 weeks' efficacy data) and long-term treatment (safety data over 9 months and microbiologic data up to 18 months) with doxycycline in an anti-inflammatory dose have indicated therapeutic benefit without production of antibiotic-resistant bacterial flora.
Microbiologic assessments have included evaluation of flora from the mouth, skin, gastrointestinal tract, and genitourinary tract. In large-scale pivotal clinical trials, no women treated with anti-inflammatory-dose doxycycline developed vaginal candidiasis.
Persistent diffuse facial erythema seen after adequate medical treatment of papulopustular rosacea, diffuse facial erythema seen with erythematotelangiectatic rosacea, telangiectasias, and phymas are poorly responsive to topical and systemic therapies. In such cases, physical modalities such as properly selected laser therapy, intense pulse light (IPL), or both are warranted.

The whole subway station "Polytechnic Institute" in Kiev was reported to be closed soon only due to the malfunction of the escalator. It does not seem too reasonable, right? But why is repair of an escalator so difficult to do? Let us check this out.
The process may take one month or two. The tunnel escalator is a complex machine with a huge number of moving parts. There are more than 600 stairs and about ten thousand of bearings. Many parts are subjected to heavy wear: if the escalator works no-nstop, it will overcome twenty eight thosand of kilometers. Overhaul must be done every 170 thousand of kilometers. If it suddenly breaks the consequences can be rather bad.
During the overhaul it is almost fully disassembled in the strict order: stairs, pulling chains, guide rails, etc.
The orther day they finished the dismantling of the parts of the escalator under repair. Almost all of them were brought to shops of the escalator service: each detail must be disassembled, cleaned, examined and repaired, if necessary.
The most interesting place is hidden under the feet of passengers – the turbine hall.
The disassembled escalator looks like this now.
This is a turbine hall. To the left is escalator № 2, a bit righter is №1. № 3 is hidden at the opposite side of the room.
The first machine – to the right is the engine with a break unit, to the left, behide the lattice, an upper sprocket is rotating – the stairs are endlessly running over it.
On the other side is the gearbox casing, through which the torque is transmitted from the engine to the sprocket.
We can see inside the main construction and watch how the stairs, turned upside down, are moving.
Each escalator is equipped with a powerful drive motor, which should ensure the escalator to start lifting at the highest possible load.
The escalator is equipped with a automated brake at the input shaft. The brake, as well as the escalator itself, are filled with numerous sensors. Safety of passengers depends mainly on this mechanism. At the slightest risk the escalator should stop. That red button is for an emergency call.
The work of the escalator and its parameters are controlled from this box.
This is how the turbine hall of the first Kiev subway stations looked like.
Some old mechanisms are still in use.
Rails with turning tables have also been preserved. They are used to move cargoes over the turbine hall.
This is a spare drive motor.
But let us get back to the disassembled machine. Here only the reductor and the drum for braking have remained. In the center is the sprocket.
Parts of the safety enclosure lie nearby.
This is the reductor. Almost all parts of the brake are dismantled.
It's the bearing of the main shaft.
The upper sprocket. The chain mounted over is pulling the stairs.
The force is transmitted from the engine to the main shaft through the gear, and the main shaft rotates the sprocket.
The operating corridor under the guard rail for the maintenance of the machines between the second and the third escalators.
Inside the disassembled escalator.
Handrail tensioning system is mounted in the upper part of the escalator.
The escalator is too long and its load may considerably vary so the extra system of handrail and stairs tensioning is necessary.
The tensioning chamber.
It's the lower sprocket of the disassembled machine.
But how do more modern machines look like? This is "Pecherskaya" station which opened in 1997 and its turbine hall. The units are placed more reasonably: the drive motor is hidden under the upper sprocket, for example.
These are the upper sprocket of the forth machine and the open reductor (overhaul 2011).
The control station is also more compact.
Its' the turbine hall of subway station "Syrets" (2004).
That little engine painted blue is also an auxiliary drive which is used during the repair and adjustment work to move the stairs at a speed not more than 4 cm / s.
The control station of "Syrets" has a modern electric filling.
And these are some assistants of the escalator service of "Syrets" subway station and they say goodbye to you!
