... When I stopped blogging today, this gap would completely replace me.

The subjunctive indicates that I do not necessarily flat, but sometimes I think about it. Why? It is what it is, you can not take blogging so important, one should not take that important.

The sky would fall on anyone's head, life would go on as usual.

Just a thought experiment, but it is what it is. The world would do without this blog. Married friends of ours on Pentecost, we are the witnesses. There may be no entries in the coming days. But hopefully a useful Pentecost with a successful marriage and an equally successful family reunification. The families of the bride and groom have known each other that is not yet come, and to make matters worse, even in corners of the republic, as they could hardly be more contrasting: On the one hand from Schermbeck and Mülheim an der Ruhr , on the other, from Chemnitz . Successive cultures collide? The families will be tolerated?

Suddenly the mood changed today. Berlin is actually not so far away from Hamburg - which are already 260 km on a global scale? But will now be recalculated: 13 no longer want to, although the distribution of the study group on the cars already made up. Berlin will be without us, the anatomical collection of the Charité, too. And now? Ice cream social at the lake? A dynamic group sitting around in Lauenburg?

"I like you very much, but this is really now - please excuse -. A children's garden"

Said the class president. Which is nothing more to add.

At most, that we now theoretically in a Fiat Cinquecento Square had, would we go to Berlin. (You know, reform math! )

The latest achievements: Stands. (How boring.)

I had a monopod ( Monostat buy used RS16SK Compact ART) with a ball head tripod dried Professional Line F30. And finally I have my Joby Gorillapod Focus .

As a reinforcement of the traditional three-legged tripod from Manfrotto, have been determined 20 years in operation, the Gorillapod was quite some time in conversation. Birthday recently, there was then the upmarket version, the Gorillapod Focus, which can carry up to 5 kilograms. There is simply an adjustable head, because that would facilitate the alignment of image composition significantly. (The picture shows the Gorillapad way, is not the long pole, but this - geisha balls not dissimilar -. winding around the pole structure) 500 grams is dragged with it, if such it brings with him, and it can be pretty much drum loop throughout, if need be, even at the head of the father. (The then looks a bit like the protagonist of the film "The Man Who Was Attacked by an Octopus Baby" - you do not know probably because I it will take some time with Bruce Willis, Reiner Calmund or a completely unknown non-actors in Billebad Bergedorf turn) Very flexible, yet extremely stable - predicate. Brilliant!

The newly purchased, but used ball of dried leaves is very elegant on the Gorillapod fix the problem with the orientation in space would be solved. Bring the scales at 300 grams and has a locator tool for the ball clamp and a friction screw. (The friction restricts the adjustment one of the locking screw and prevents accidental tipping of the mounted camera with loosened locking screw. The danger of tipping is for heavier camera and lens combination, of course, bigger, therefore can be adapted to different weights via friction screw head.) Initial tests appear promising, the adjustment is quick and without any additional tools on the stage.

The 640-gram monopod is made ​​from carbon or other light weights, but it makes a solid impression. The height adjustment up to a maximum of 143 cm is possible by continuously rotating closures. The rubber foot with stabilizer bar holds well even on slippery floors, wide Genung, in order not to sink into the soft ground, and can be tilted 60 ° to all sides tend. Even here the first attempts have gone well.

And where are we ever on the subject "tripods" are: Why are so unpopular stands, but extremely useful, the discuss Buxtehuder Fotofreunde strongly, clearly and entertainingly .

A simple miscalculation that has torn the teacher there. A new quadrature of the circle, uttered with a jovial smile at the horn-rimmed glasses, no, perhaps rather sighed.

Jenny minus 25 = 16

Without ulterior motive, without any references to voluminous expansion of the feminine body, which does not exist anyway.

Possible that the shave Hair Has cost Fisselansammlung on the head a few brain cells. The throw, however, came from the floor. How do you get with a 25 strong men and women learning group to Berlin? By avoiding a head and takes two eight-seater.

Without further ado, Adam Riese and used rule of thumb estimate: 25 16 = minus Jenny So simple can be higher math: If 25 people fit into three eight-seater is not quite one but may go with them, then stay (Wait, I expect just with the scientific calculator) left exactly 24 people in two motor-driven vehicles à eight seats can comfortably travel to Berlin.

It was about time to do the math reform forward. The study group has tackled the problem and it is thought to its logical conclusion. Jenny is 25 minus 24 is not, but 16th

Well, because ...

The teacher shaved plate, only a few hours by a star stylist (yours truly) sprout pad ensures for all commercial rules as hairdressing (shearing machine and wet shaving) and above even the romantic-diffuse light on the notebook screen conceals soft looks, the way in marginal lighting Seen Sun from:

Sometimes one has to smile even as a lecturer was.

No doubt you have ever heard of diabetes mellitus, called the "honey-sweet flow" *, colloquially known as diabetes. In an exam, I asked the question, what types of diabetes are there, as they called (and why some names are no longer used), as they arise and come what therapy principles with which goals are used.

Emerged in the responses of the term "juvenile diabetes" on. Thus, the previously described type 1 diabetes, which is characterized by absolute insulin deficiency caused by autoimmune B cell destruction in the pancreas.

"Juvenil" says teen with Type 1 diabetes is a disease per 1000 children, the most common metabolic disease in young Marx's. The term "juvenile" in this context is no longer used, because even the type 2 diabetes, which has affected mainly older people sooner, and more often occurs in adolescents. Obesity, physical inactivity and poor diet habits to ensure that there is an insulin secretion and insulin resistance.

I had not reckoned with such a pronounced diversity in the spelling of the word "juvenile". The highlight was:

juneviler diabetes

My wife, also a nurse qualified nurse and health (formerly called simply the nurse), advises me sometimes, when it comes to whether to award full marks if in doubt or not. She works in the operating room, straight through the specialized training "surgical care," and works mostly in liver surgery. As one can ever be blind to, especially as the Scripture has been fulfilled the students, not all criteria of readability.

She scanned the passage of the exam and read

juneliver

Sure, there are Christmas dinner, summer clothes and autumn holidays. But the liver (in the Anglo-Saxon language area "liver") is subject to change over time, was new to me. But it seems to be: There is a June liver. How it differs from the variant differs August and November if the liver is fundamentally different structure, are regularly checked should in future studies.

And when I look at the letters that appear in the word "juvenile" or, more precisely examined, formed before my mind's eye another spelling variant:

june lever

One of the products that belong to the empire of a company , which is very international as it is written above, did you have over your lifetime at least once already in hand. And spelling of the word beginning with a J, of course, is not correct.

But it is quite remarkable what can be done from the word "juvenile" everything.

* In the event that you want to know why you missed the name of the disease, you should follow it and keep the old doctors sometimes a finger in the urine of a diabetic and then - lick it. Our kidneys normally go with glucose at a very economical, because we need them, together with oxygen to produce energy in each cell. The kidneys get themselves with the production of urine all back, what is still needed. As the hormone insulin to glucose transfer from blood to cells allows the falls from insulin deficiency or insulin resistance, and blood sugar is too much. The kidneys note that the threshold is exceeded, and excrete the excess sugar in the urine. Sugar in the coffee making coffee sweet, sugar in urine makes sweet pee accordingly.

The times are changing . Ulf also recently stated that it " anachronistic "is, when dealing with Handbrühfiltern, Aufziehuhren and razors.

The use of calendar systems, vinyl records and piston fillers also falls under it. How often will I be considered strange when I unpack my Filofax to clarify dates, I can not count anymore. This paper has a sensory component , is independent of battery and power levels and very spontaneous, especially in fast notes. Records have a warm sound, the choice of a particular song is not subject to a number in the display, but precise knowledge of the topography on the vinyl surface. And the writing with a pen is incomparable.

My guitar is not that old but it gives the design since 1950: a Fender Telecaster , classic and no frills, fitted with two single coil pickups and "butterscotch blonde" in the color version.

Today there is hardly anyone without a mobile phone. Has clear advantages, but certainly also disadvantages. You can tell how times change, especially with the telephonic communication. Every other phone call begins with the words: "Are you at home" (I want to reflexively reply: "Well, where should I be?")
When I young was slightly younger, So before 30 years until recently, it was not necessary this question. Who answered the phone, which was attached by a cord to the wall socket, so, where should it be of use already? The first phone to which I can consciously remember, was still made of bakelite and was one of Kawenzmann dial, which was at least as large as the smallest cell phones today. Nowadays we hardly seem to think, when we call somewhere. "Home Zone" and Co. make it possible. It can be anywhere. Except perhaps in the subway tunnel, because there are still phones fail in service.
