Begin Again. Fail Better

Begin Again. Fail Better: Preliminary Drawings in Architecture engages with one of the principal activities of the architect in the process of design: drawing by hand. It explores the act of designing through a focus on beginnings. Architects try, fail, try again, fail better until they start to move in the direction that ultimately becomes a building-or not. This book brings together 199 preliminary architecture drawings. More than 50 contemporary Swiss architecture firms each contributed two pieces that reveal something of their individual approach and understanding of architecture. This selection is enhanced by historical works by Swiss and European architects that come from four significant British and Swiss archival collections, dating from the 20th and back to the 16th century. The illustrations are complemented by essays providing a critical and historical framework, as well as a conversation engaging with the conditions and importance of failure within the design process. Brief interludes by international architects, archivists and teachers, introducing a range of perspectives, round out this beautiful volume.

Murder on Easey Street

SUMMER IN MELBOURNE,1977. TWO YOUNG WOMEN ARE VICIOUSLY MURDERED. THE KILLER HAS NEVER BEEN FOUND.Forty-five years ago, Suzanne Armstrong and Susan Bartlett were fatally stabbed in their home on Easey Street, Collingwood, while Suzanne's toddler slept in his cot. Their murder remains one of the most infamous unsolved cold cases in Australia.Helen Thomas was a young journalist at The Age when the murders were committed and saw how deeply they affected the city. More than four decades later, she's still looking at the case - chasing down new leads and talking, again, to the women's families, friends and neighbours. What emerges is a portrait of a crime rife with ambiguities and contradictions, which took place at a fascinating time in the city's history, in one of its most notorious suburbs.Why has the Easey Street murderer never been found, despite the million-dollar reward for information leading to an arrest? Did the women know their killer, or were their deaths due to a random, frenzied attack? Could the murderer have killed again? This gripping and updated account addresses these questions and more as it sheds new light on one of Australia's most disturbing and compelling criminal mysteries.

Biofilm endodontico e sua eradicazione

I biofilm sono complesse comunità tridimensionali di microrganismi che aderiscono a una superficie e sono racchiusi in una sostanza esopolimerica protettiva. Le complessità anatomiche dei sistemi dei canali radicolari proteggono i batteri aderenti in un biofilm dalle procedure di pulizia e modellazione. Le comunità microbiche che crescono nei biofilm sono notevolmente più difficili da sradicare con gli agenti antimicrobici e i microrganismi nei biofilm maturi possono essere estremamente resistenti per ragioni che non sono ancora state completamente spiegate. Poiché l'influenza della dentina del canale radicolare e di altre superfici sull'espressione di nuovi fenotipi di biofilm non è ancora stata toccata, le conclusioni e le decisioni raggiunte da studi di biofilm in monocultura in laboratorio devono essere prese con grande cautela. Sebbene nessuna delle soluzioni irriganti/disinfettanti attualmente utilizzate nel trattamento endodontico sia in grado di svolgere tutti i compiti richiesti, molte di esse possono avere un impatto sui biofilm, dissolvendo la pellicola, uccidendo i microbi che risiedono nel biofilm o aiutando a rompere o a staccare la pellicola dalla superficie.

Biofilme endodôntico e sua erradicação

Os biofilmes são comunidades tridimensionais complexas de microrganismos aderentes a uma superfície e encapsulados numa substância exopolimérica protectora. As complexidades anatómicas nos sistemas de canais radiculares abrigam as bactérias aderentes num biofilme dos procedimentos de limpeza e moldagem. As comunidades microbianas que crescem em biofilmes são notavelmente mais difíceis de erradicar com agentes antimicrobianos e os microrganismos em biofilmes maduros podem ser extremamente resistentes por razões que ainda têm de ser totalmente explicadas. Como a influência da dentina do canal radicular e outras superfícies na expressão de novos fenótipos de biofilmes ainda não foi abordada, as conclusões e decisões alcançadas a partir de estudos de biofilmes de monocultura em laboratório devem ser tomadas com grande cautela. Embora nenhuma das soluções de irrigação/desinfecção actualmente utilizadas no tratamento endodôntico seja capaz de realizar todas as tarefas necessárias, muitas delas podem ter impacto nos biofilmes, quer dissolvendo a película, matando os micróbios que residem no biofilme, quer ajudando a quebrar ou a separar a película da superfície.
