The house was " sold out"?-packed from floor to ceiling. And small wonder since, apart from any sentimental reasons, that marvellous man, Mr. Alan Adair, had provided a full afternoon's entertainment of talent, humour and rollicking jollity. Many of the capable artists were greeted like old friends, which, indeed, they were, often having given their services on previous occasions to hearten up ...

Deborah Grassman’s presentation, “Wounded Warriors: Their Last Battle” has dramatically and almost singlehandedly increased awareness of Veterans and their unique end-of-life issues in both VA and the community. Not only has Ms Grassman given this presentation to dozens of audiences across the country, a DVD has been widely distributed to VA and community healthcare providers as an effective te...

Blood volume tests made on a number of soldiers recovering from hemorrhage have shown that in many instances dilution of the blood occurs very slowly. The principal reasons for this seem to be (a) an initial lack of reserve fluid of the tissues, and (b) the absence of any subsequent attempt by the body to make up this fluid deficiency. By putting such patients on a large fluid intake by mouth a...

“Of all the surgical operations which are performed in man for the preservation of life by the physician, I have always judged to be the foremost that by which man is recalled from a quick death to a sudden repossession of life, a feat which raises to the level of Aesculapius; the operation is the opening of the asperia arteria [trachea], by which patients, from a condition of almost suffocatin...

Three known physiological responses to exogenous cytokinins were measured in wounded and nonwounded cotyledons from cucumber (Cucumis sativus L. cv Marketer) seedlings grown in darkness. Enhanced cell division, chlorophyll formation, and cotyledon expansion were detected in wounded cotyledons. The data suggest that wounding enhances endogenous cytokinin activity.

Particle production in Au−Au, Cu−Cu, d−Au and p−p collisions at 200 GeV c.m. energy are analyzed in the wounded quark-diquark model. Existing data are well reproduced. Emission functions of wounded and unwounded constituents are determined. Implications for the collective evolution of the system are discussed.
