We make use of a specially synthesized linear high density polyethylene with a bimodal molecular weight distribution (MWD) to demonstrate that it is possible to produce a suspension of extended-chain (shish) crystals only. Such a suspension can be generated at high temperatures, above but close to the equilibrium melting temperature of the unconstrained extended-chain crystals (T(m)(0)=141.2 de...

To the editor: In a recent Eurosurveillance issue, Kinross et al. [1] describe a cross-border outbreak of Salmonella Stanley in the European Union, which could be traced back to a contamination in the turkey production chain. The aetiological clone is mono-resistant to nalidixic acid and characterised by a novel pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) type. We agree with Kinross et al. that the...

A 31-year-old man presented with dysphagia, hoarseness, and pain in the cervical region after the ingestion of Turkish chicken doner kebab (a traditional vertical rotisserie). Findings of initial investigations for perforation and other complications were unremarkable. At endoscopy, a thick and gnarled chicken bone located in the cervical esophagus was observed to be embedded in the esophageal ...

The perceived relative position of a moving object is frequently shifted as compared to the relative position of the object in the real world. The illusions have traditionally been explained by temporal models that influence the perceptual latency of visual objects. However, another compelling theory has recently been proposed on the basis of spatial models that directly influence the coded loc...
