History
English physician "Percivall Pott" experienced this injury in 1765 and described his clinical findings in a paper published in 1769.
The term "Dupuytren fracture" refers to the same mechanism, and it is named for "Guillaume Dupuytren".
...
The "Maisonneuve fracture" is a spiral fracture of the proximal third of the fibula associated with a tear of the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis and the interosseous membrane. There is an associated fracture of the medial malleolus or rupture of the deep deltoid ligament. This type of injury can be difficult to detect. The Maisonneuve fracture is similar to the Galeazzi fracture fracture in the sense that there is an important ligamentous disruption in association with the fracture. The fracture is named after the surgeon "Jules Germain François Maisonneuve".

My photographs are primarily a documentation of a physical evolution. I have changed a common object into sculpture in a state of flux. The way we choose to research and find information is also in an evolution. I hope to raise questions about these changes, the ephemeral and "fragile" nature in which we now obtain knowledge, and the future of books.

Climbing a waterfall ? During the winter, some of them freeze solid. Using the cold mountain tools such as ice axes and crampons opens then a whole new world of strange and ephemeral beauty made of curtains, stalactites, columns, and cauliflowers. But beware, it is cold, steep, and sometimes fragile...
If It's Fragile, It will Break (Naturally)
...
Take the word "break", for example. "Break" is a native English word, which is to say that it can be traced all the way back to the ultimate linguistic ancestor of English, Proto-Indo-European, where it's reconstructed as "*bhreg-". The word exists elsewhere in the Indo-European family of languages, but for our purposes the interesting remnant of "*bhreg-" is in Latin, where it develops into the word "frangere" "to break", which in some forms appears as "frag-", without the "n". Latin/French forms of this word have been incorporated into English in many forms, which now stand alongside the native English word "break". For example, "fragile" and "frangible" are Latin/French equivalents of the native "breakable". Also, "fraction", "fragment", "fracture", "refract" and a whole list of other words which reflect the Latin "frag-", "frang-".

Definition (english only)
The breaking-up of continuous tracts of ecosystems creating barriers to migration or dispersal of organisms and reducing the size of homogenous areas. "Fragmentation" may be induced by human activities (e.g. road infrastructures, dams) or by natural processes.
Translations of "fragmentation":
Bulgarian: ???, ???, ??? ?? ??? Czech: fragmentace Danish: fragmentering Dutch: fragmentatie English: fragmentation Estonian: killustumine Finnish: ekosysteemialueiden pirstoutuminen French: fragmentation German: Zerschneidung Greek: ?atateµa??sµ??

"OSPREY", or "Ospray", a word said to be corrupted from "Ossifrage" Lat. "ossifraga", "bone-breaker". The "Ossifraga" of Pliny (H.N. x. 3) and some other classical writers seems to have been the "Lammergeyer"; but the name, not inapplicable in that case, has been transferred to another bird which is no breaker of bones, save incidentally those of the fishes it devours.
...
The term "osprey", applied to the nuptial plumes of the egrets in the feather trade ("Reiherfederbusch"), is derived from the French "esprit"; it has nothing to do with the "osprey bird", and its use has been supposed to be due to a confusion with "spray". (A. N.)

Background Info:
Since 2001, the Friends of Blackwater have been broadcasting live images from a camera located on a man-made Osprey platform at Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge. The platform is approximately 35-feet tall and is situated alongside the Blackwater River, which is where the ospreys fish for their meals. Behind the Osprey Cam (and visible on the cam image) is the refuge Visitor Center where visitors can watch live video from the Osprey Cam.

GALLERY OF FLUID DYNAMICS
One of the most attractive features of fluid mechanics is the beauty of the flows one encounters. Whether one is observing vortex streets, the potential flow around an airfoil or body, shock "refraction" or "diffraction", or waves breaking on a beach the aesthetic appeal of fluid mechanics is impossible to deny.

"Steinbrech", "Saxifraga" Linn., eine Pflanzengattung, welche in die zweite Ordnung der zehnten Klasse (Decandria Monogynia) des Linnéischen Pflanzensystems gehört. Diese Pflanze hat ihren Namen von "Saxum", "der Stein", und "frangere", "zerbrechen", weil, nach dem Bauhin oder Bauhinius, ihr Saft den Stein in der Blase zermalmen soll; allein Andere wollen diesen Namen daher leiten, weil die meisten Arten dieser Pflanzengattung, die eine sehr reichhaltige Sippe ausmacht, auf den Felsen und Steinklippen wachsen und gleichsam durch die Ritzen des Gesteins dringen. Der Steinbrech hat folgenden Charakter: der Kelch ist fünfspaltig oder theilig und bleibend, die Krone hat fünf Blumenblätter. Die in zwei Zellen getheilte zweihörnige Samenfrucht, welche sich an der Spitze öffnet, enthält viele kleine Samen. Dieses Geschlecht oder diese Sippe ist, wie schon bemerkt worden, sehr zahlreich. Linné hat sie in seinem Systeme in vier Ordnungen aufgeführt:Die bemerkenswerthesten Arten dieser Pflanzensippe sind:
- a) mit ungetheilten Blättern und einem fast nackten Stengel (Foliis indivisis, canle subnudo).
- b) Mit ungetheilten Blättern und einem beblätterten Stengel (Foliis indivisis, caule folioso).
- c) Mit lappigen Blättern und aufrechten Stengeln (Foliis lobatis, caulibus erectis).
- d) Mit lappigen Blättern und gestreckten Stengeln (Foliis lobatis, caulibus procumbentibus).
Diese hier angeführten Steinbrecharteu sind unter der großen Anzahl dieser Pflanzensippe diejenigen, welche am meisten in Deutschlands Gärten wegen ihrer Dauerhaftigkeit als Zierpflanzen gezogen werden, und einige auch in dem Zimmergarten, wie z. B. Nr. 1, 2, 5, 6, 7 etc. Die übrigen hier nicht angeführten Steinbrecharten findet man in dem vollständigen Lexicon der Gärtnerei und Botanik von Dietrich, und in den Nachträgen zu diesem Lexicon. ...

Species: "Saxifragopsis fragarioides" "strawberry saxifrage"
"Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" is an English word, with 34 letters, that was in the song with the same title in the 1964 Disney musical film Mary Poppins. The song was written by the Sherman Brothers, and sung by Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke. It also appears in the stage show version of Mary Poppins.
Since Mary Poppins was a period piece set in 1910, period sounding songs were wanted. "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" sounds like contemporary music hall songs "Boiled Beef and Carrots" and "Any Old Iron".
...
Origin
According to Richard M. Sherman, co-writer of the song with his brother, Robert, the word was created by them in two weeks, mostly out of double-talk.
The roots of the word have been defined as follows: "super-" "above", "cali-" "beauty", "fragilistic-" "delicate", "expiali-" "to atone", and "docious-" "educable", with the sum of these parts signifying roughly "Atoning for educability through delicate beauty." Although the word contains recognizable English morphemes, it does not follow the rules of English morphology as a whole. The morpheme "-istic" is a suffix in English, whereas the morpheme "ex-" is typically a prefix; so following normal English morphological rules, it would represent two words: "supercalifragilistic and expialidocious". The pronunciation also leans towards it being two words since, the letter "c" doesn't normally sound like a "k" when followed by an "e", an "i" or a "y".
According to the film, it is defined as "something to say when you have nothing to say".

Legal action
In 1965, the song was the subject of an unsuccessful lawsuit by songwriters Gloria Parker and Barney Young against Wonderland Music, who published the version of the song from the Walt Disney film. The plaintiffs alleged that it was a copyright infringement of a 1951 song of their own called "Supercalafajalistickespeealadojus". Also known as "The Super Song", "Supercalafajalistickespeealadojus" was recorded by Alan Holmes and his New Tones on Columbia Records, vocal by Hal Marquess and the Holmes Men, music and lyrics by Patricia Smith (a Gloria Parker pen name). In addition, "Supercalafajalistickespeealadojus" was recorded on Gloro Records by The Arabian Knights. The Disney publishers won the lawsuit partially because affidavits were produced showing that "variants of the word were known ... many years prior to 1949".

This word (lat. "sufragari") can be broken into "suf-" "under", "near" plus "fragor" "crash", "din", "shouts of approval". The English word acquired the Latin meaning "support", vote for" in the early to mid-16th century. The meaning it holds in the United States Constitution (1797) is the same as today's meaning, "the right to vote".

A really interesting one is the form "suffragette", a female advocate of voting rights for women (i.e. "suffrage"). Most people who have ever thought about this word would probably connect it with "suffer" in the sense of "endure". But in fact it's from Latin "suffragium" (i.e. "suf-frag-ium") "a voting tablet", which probably got its name because people used a broken piece of tile to cast their ballot. So there you have it: "break", "fragile", "frangible", "fraction" and even "suffrage" all from the same ultimate source ("*bhreg-") their connections concealed by their different forms in different languages.

According to Falconer, one of the essential features of a fractal is that its Hausdorff dimension strictly exceeds its topological dimension. Presented here is a list of fractals ordered by increasing Hausdorff dimension, with the purpose of visualizing what it means for a fractal to have a low or a high dimension.

Product Description
With contributions by researchers from India, Europe, North America and the Caribbean, "In Translation – Reflections, refractions, transformations" touches on questions of method and on topics – including copyright, cultural hybridity, globalization, identity construction, and minority languages – which are important for the disciplinary development of translation studies but also of interest to other fields as well, most notably comparative literature, cultural studies and world literature. The volume provides a forum for new voices to be heard alongside those of well-established scholars and for current concerns to express themselves, often focusing on practices in areas of the world other than Europe or North America, which have until now tended to dominate the field. Acknowledging difference and celebrating it, the contributions conceive of translation as a process which reconstitutes and transforms, which brings renewal and growth, an interaction in a new context, a new reading, a new writing.
