Every Night's Like an Open Frame

A lil sequel to “Waiting on Mr. Right” ;)

Series also on AO3!

(ID in alt and under cut)

ID: 1a. Aerial shot of a parking lot with one car and a single story building with a temporary sign strapped onto it that says ‘open all night’. A permanent sign on a pole out front says 'Arden Heights Dark Bowl' in purple LEDs, several letters burnt out. A speech bubble pops out of the building that says, 'Guillermo!' 1b. Inside, a medium shot of Nandor and Guillermo facing each other in profile, bowling lanes with LED striping in the background. A monitor is hung above them listing their scores up to the sixth frame, showing Nandor at 46 and Guillermo at 52 with two additional strikes in the last two frames. A little cartoon bowling pin appears on screen, saying 'strike!' The entire room is lit with neon green, purple, and red lights. Nandor sweeps his arm toward the scoreboard angrily and shouts, 'Why did you not tell me you were such a skilled bowler?!' Guillermo tosses his arms out and snaps back, 'Because that’s the first question you’ve asked me all night! You’ve only been talking about yourself!' 1c. Shot of Guillermo over Nandor’s shoulder, showing only one other occupied lane a ways behind him. Nandor throws his arms up, fingers curling in a strangling motion, and replies, 'You said asking questions was a first date activity! This is our second!' Guillermo slumps with a tired frown, pointing out, 'Only technically! The getting-to-know-eachother part is continuous, Nandor. You’re not getting to know me at all.' 1d. Reverse shot of Nandor, who crosses his arms and huffily asks, 'Oh, so you are not interested in hearing about my large penis and great vampiric powers?' 1e. Reverse shot of Guillermo, who purses his lips together and glares back, cheeks flushed. 1f. Repeat. Guillermo mumbles through gritted teeth, '…Not the point.' 1g. Medium shot of them both in profile. Nandor leans forward with a triumphant smile, poking his finger at Guillermo’s face, and crows, 'Aha! See? I am providing the necessary information to ensure you will agree to future dates!' Guillermo leans back away from his pointing finger, pouting in embarrassment and glaring to the side. He mumbles back, 'Shouldn’t I get to do that, too?' 1h. Shot from behind Nandor as he whips around to face the viewer, back to Guillermo, a triumphant grin still wide on his face. He says, 'No need!' Guillermo peers suspiciously at him from the background. 1i. Close up of Nandor’s hand as he sinks his fingers into a red 16-pound bowling ball on the return rack, Guillermo visible behind him clutching his own arm and looking mildly confused. Nandor continues, 'I have already decided how I feel about you.' 1j. Close up of Nandor in profile on a bubbly pink background as he holds up the ball in front of his face to inspect it with a serious expression. He says, 'I cannot imagine anything you could say that would make me want you more.' Close up of Guillermo staring at him, eyes wide and sparkling, cheeks flushed, as Nandor continues, 'Or anything that would keep me away.' 1k. Wide shot, bust of Guillermo small in the center, blushing and looking frustrated with himself as he thinks, 'Why is this working for me?' The background is full of dancing red flags. Offscreen, Nandor continues, 'But very well.' 1l. Shot over Guillermo’s shoulder as Nandor turns to face him with a grin, one hand on his hip and the other holding up a peace sign with the bowling ball held up on his fingers. He says, “Whomever hits the most little white men-“ Guillermo interrupts, correcting, 'Pins.' Nandor continues, '-on the next turn will have to answer a personal question.' 1m. Full body shot from the lane as Nandor turns toward it and dips to roll the ball with a confident smile and decent form. His bowling shoes do not match his outfit. Guillermo stands behind him in equally ugly shoes, watching.

2a. Close up of the bowling pins as Nandor's ball flies down the lane, knocking down some but not all. 2b. Close up at the scoreboard showing Nandor's score of 4 in frame 7. There are more bowling sounds from offscreen. 2c. Repeat, Nandor's score updates to show a spare as he knocks down the rest of the pins. A cartoon pin appears on screen with a wink and a thumbs up, announcing, 'Spare!' Offscreen, Nandor crows 'Ha!' 2c. Close up of Nandor looking very smug as he turns toward Guillermo and sweeps his arm toward the ball return behind him. He says, 'You're up, Guillermo.' 2d. Medium shot of Guillermo as he takes a green ball and readies it in his hands, squinting back at Nandor who stands behind him. Nandor is still holding his arm out and smiling, though the smugness has faded some in favor of affection as a little pink heart floats around his head. 2e. Close up on Guillermo in profile as he turns himself toward the bowling lane, bringing the ball up to balance in front of his face. His furrowed brow and the neon lightning strike in the background enhance his intense focus. 2f. Full body from below as Guillermo steps forward and takes his shot, form perfect and eyes forward. 2g. Shot of the lane from above as Guillermo's ball immediately veers sharply right and sinks into the gutter. 2h. Further shot of the ball rolling in the gutter down towards the pins. 2i. Close up of the ball falling off the end of the lane with a plunk, leaving all pins untouched. 2j. Close up of Guillermo looking calm and unsurprised, brows raised unconcernedly as the animated pin presses it's gloves hands to its face in shock and shouts 'Uh-oh! Gutterball!' Behind him, Nandor is a picture of shock, arms flying out beside him, eyes bugging, mouth dropped open. He shrieks, 'Wha- Guillermo!'

3a. Medium shot of Guillermo as he turns his back on the bowling lane to face Nandor, one hand on his hip and one eyebrow raised. Offscreen, Nandor stutters, 'That's not- You weren't supposed to-' Slightly pink in the face despite his confident veneer, Guillermo interrupts and asks, 'Now you have to answer a personal question, right?' 3b. Reverse shot of Nandor on a purplish pink background filled with question marks. Nandor frowns and tilts his head, baffled, but replies 'I- I suppose, but-' Guillermo interrupts from offscreen again and says 'Great.' 3c. Wide shot of them both in profile, the bowling alley stretching out behind them. Guillermo steps closer, still holding his confident and unbothered expression, and asks 'Do you wanna go make out in the parking lot?' Nandor's eyes bug out in shock, cheeks flushing purple. 3d. Repeat. Nandor rushes forward to take both of Guillermo's hands in his own and hold them up between them, leaning close and staring with a sweaty and flustered intensity. He replies, 'I was wrong. I am wanting you even more now. Tell me everything about you while we are doing the making out.' Guillermo's face breaks into a silly grin, amused but not uncharmed by this response. 3e. Exterior shot of the bowling alley from above, Guillermo now leaning against the building with Nandor pressed against him as they make out. Guillermo's right arm is around Nandor's waist and his left hand is pressed to the wall above by Nandor's. Dialogue drifts down the screen as they canoodle. Guillermo: 'Mmm, but I never went to art school or anything, it's just a hobby.' Nandor: 'I would love to see your work... Would you draw me, too?' Guillermo: 'Maybe...if you'd pose for me.' Nandor: 'However you want, Guillermo... Oh! You can roll your tongue? So can I!' Guillermo: 'Hahaha!' Nandor: 'You are full of surprises...' Guillermo: 'You have no idea...' The neon sign above them takes up most of the panel; more letters are now burnt out to spell 'The End.' /end ID

[hinmotion]

maybe it's the lunar new year or the deep conversation with my friends last night but i'm in my feels right now. about a lot of things. but also, about diamond and lego.

it's all over the places at the moment so i will (try to) write a more cohesive post later (if i have time admist all these new year house cleaning).

i want to put something out there right now.

so.

you are a male idol. you told your fans in live stream that you thought he were cute, unprompted, when you were asked about his bandmate. and then later you guys were in the same event, your fans teased you if you met him yet, you said no and then he quote tweeted that video saying if you wanted to meet then come say hi. and then you guys met. and then you did tiktok challenges with him. and then he gave you a birthday present and you posted on twitter about it. and then more tiktok challenges. and then you guys collaborated on a dance video of your romantic song about being attractive to someone and wanting to dance with them, as a gift for fans celebrating your mv got 1m views. and then you always tell everyone that he is cute when being asked.

and then you waited 5 hours to catch his group's performance because you guys happened to be at the same job, just different time slots. and then you posted the photo at that same event where he interacted with you on ig with a romantic song. and then in an interview 'this vs that' style, when being asked who was the person you like the most in this building (that you were working in and have multiple long-time, close friends and co-workers of yours) you choose him over and over again and even promoted his socials and his group's latest song. and then in another game, just by seeing his shadow for a brief second, you successfully recognized his photo and won points. and then you always tell everyone that he is cute when being asked.

and then you guys went out to fix his in-ear monitors, eating, shopping, taking photobooth photos and filming another tiktok challenge. and then at a friend's birthday party, you guys took photos together and you posted it on ig. and then you guys went to the same year end party, when he danced on the table, you were afraid he would fall so you hold it with your hands and feet and even sat on it. and then when he wanted to get down from the table, you reached out, hold his hands and helped him landing (?) with a hug.

not to mention all the flirtatious, joking replies at each other all over social media or when interacting with fans, both online and in real life.

publicly having affection for someone with the same gender. but like you guys are both asian celebrities. as a k-pop fan, it's just so different than what i have experienced before, where dating or even mentioning other idols as your type is a sin. any hints of affection is either treated with obsession or toxicity. not to mention the reactions to gay idols or possible gay celebrities relationship.

it's also different in a culture where bl and real people shipping are prevalent. they both were teased continuously by fans, bandmates, friends, co-workers. reporters also joked and pestered them in many ways, that sometimes i got uncomfortable, but seeing even their hardcore solo fans didn't seem to mind make me think it's more of a cultural thing.

and yet diamond still doesn't shy away from it. from anything he was asked about lego. about their relationship. sure, there are things he ignored or declined to answer. he always tell everyone that lego is cute when being asked. he consistently tells everyone, through words and actions, that he adores lego so much.

he could just be more lowkey to avoid all the hassles and the inappropriate shippers. but he didn't. and i don't think he ever will. same with lego. and that's beautiful. it makes me feel warm and fuzzy. like they got to live true to their feelings and themselves. they got to build the personal relationship and bond that they want. they got to publicly show that they like each other. they feel safe enough to do it.

and that's is soooooooo.

good for them.

i don't know how to end this. i don't know if it's the right thing to write all of this.

i want to live more as myself like them. to be a little bit more honest and in tune with my feelings and thoughts.

i want to live in a world where people can express themselves safely and like who they like and love who they love.

Dinopedia: Pachycephalosaurus

Name Meaning: Thick-headed Lizard

Diet: Herbivore

Habitat: Terrestrial

Era: Late Cretaceous

Family: Pachycephalosauridae

Height: 1m

Length: 4m

Weight: 450kg

Origin Point: North America

Attraction: Gyrosphere

Population: 4

Individuals: Daisy, Flint, Hachibei, Poppy

Cohabitants: Ankylosaurus

The most famous of the so-called "bone-headed" dinosaurs, pachycephalosaurus is exceptionally tough. Although not overtly aggressive, it is territorial and will defend against intruders with single-mindedness.

Pachycephalosaurus' primary weapon is the dome-shaped covering over its skull, which can be as thick as 25cm. Pachycephalosaurus will use its skull to headbutt against any contenders, whether an intrusive predator or an opponent in a territorial joust.

Younger pachycephalosaurs also butt heads occasionally and will often nudge and shove their skulls together in rambunctious play fights.

Although a rare occurrence, our pachycephalosaurs have been known to damage their subdermal implants as a result of their headbutting tendencies. These implants are administered to all Jurassic World dinosaurs upon reaching juvenile age and allow us to monitor their position at all times via the DIN-OS (Directly Integrated Network - Operating System).

While no pachycephalosaurus has yet breached containment, please be mindful of all security protocols in the event of a containment anomaly.

Did you know? In addition to the Gyrosphere, pachycephalosaurs can be observed putting their heads to the test during the Pachy Arena show in the Amphitheatre. Consult the Jurassic World App for showtimes!

[mariacallous]

The New Zealand government has been accused of waging a “war on nature” after it announced sweeping cuts to climate action projects, while making no significant new investments in environmental protection or climate crisis-related policy.

In its 2024/25 budget, handed down on Thursday, the rightwing coalition announced spending on law and order, education, health and a series of tax cuts, as the country struggles with inflation and cost-of-living pressures.

Finance minister Nicola Willis, who delivered the budget against the backdrop of a technical recession and widening government deficits, said it was a “fiscally responsible budget” that was “putting New Zealanders’ money where it can make the biggest difference”.

But absent from the budget documents was any meaningful new spending on the climate crisis. Instead, dozens of climate-related initiatives, including programmes in the Emissions Reductions Plan and funding for data and evidence specialists were subject to sweeping cuts.

In a media release, climate change minister Simon Watts said “responsible and effective climate related initiatives that support New Zealand to reduce emissions, and adapt to the future effects of climate change are a priority.”

He said the government would invest to reach those goals, including funding climate resilience projects such as stop banks and floodwalls through the Regional Infrastructure Fund, a $200m boost for the Rail Network Improvement Programme, and extending the reach of the Waste Disposal Levy to support a wider range of waste-related and environmental activities.

When asked by the Guardian if there was any significant new funding directed towards tackling climate change and environmental protection, Watts pointed to the resilience projects.

Meanwhile, the environment minister, Penny Simmonds, told the Guardian the increases to the waste levy “will mean a broader range of environmental projects can be funded”, including waste disposal in emergencies, cleaning up contaminated sites and freshwater improvement.

But critics said the government’s approach to protecting the environment and tackling climate change was backward looking, while climate resilience projects were the ambulance at the bottom of the cliff without future-facing climate mitigation plans.

Meanwhile, the rail improvement programme was understood to be focused on existing rail lines. It was unclear if it included new rail projects. Changes to the waste disposal levy involved mostly reallocating existing funds.

The Labour opposition called the budget a “catastrophe” that was “taking us backwards”.

The only new investment in the environment section of the budget was a $23m annual commitment to pushing through the government’s resource management changes, including a controversial fast-track bill that could see conservation concerns ignored and projects once rejected for environmental reasons given the green light.

The government says it has found $102m in savings and revenue per year across the environment sector through various cuts, including cutting climate change programmes, reducing spending on specialists that provide evidence and data including updates to environmental standards, monitoring and reporting and scaling back funding for the Climate Change Commission, which advises the government on climate change policy.

In conservation, another $33m a year will be cut. There is a $1m annual investment listed in the budget documents, but government officials could not explain where this money would go, citing “commercial sensitivities”.

The programmes and areas related to climate policy that are subject to cuts across government included:

Māori knowledge-based approaches to agricultural emissions reduction

Community-based renewable energy schemes

The Climate Change Commission

External and internal specialists who supply evidence and data on environmental monitoring and science

Freshwater policy initiatives

Native forest planting

Development of a circular economy, relating to recycling and reuse

Jobs for Nature, a programme creating jobs to benefit the environment

Reducing biosecurity monitoring

New Zealand is still rebuilding from massive destruction caused by 2023’s deadly Auckland floods and Cyclone Gabrielle, which killed 11 people and laid waste to large swathes of the North Island’s east coast.

Among the spending promises in the budget was $1bn to rebuild the regions hit by these disasters.

Human-caused climate breakdown has increased the occurrence of the most intense and destructive tropical cyclones (though the overall number a year has not changed globally). This is because warming oceans provide more energy, producing stronger storms.

‘Head in the coal’

Green party co-leader Chlöe Swarbrick described the government as a “coalition of cowards” that was allowing the climate crisis to “rage on unchallenged” and whose attack on the climate would ripple through future generations.

“The other day, government parties said, ‘drill, baby, drill,’ and today, they may as well have said, ‘burn, baby, burn’,” Swarbrick said, adding that the budget had seen funding from almost every major programme in the Emissions Reduction Plan gutted.

The government was “choosing to bury its head in the coal,” she said. “It has made the choice to put cynical politics ahead of people and planet, serving the short-term interests of wealthy donors over the wellbeing of all of us.”

The first budget from the rightwing coalition – made up of the centre-right National party, libertarian ACT party and populist NZ First – is a sharp departure from the previous Labour government’s commitments to protecting the environment. In 2017, Labour prime minister Jacinda Ardern said climate change was her generation’s nuclear-free moment and put climate policies high on her agenda.

In 2022, her government unveiled the most significant announcement on climate change action in the country’s history – $4.5bn for a climate emergency response fund (CERF) to try to drive a low-emissions economy and prepare the country for the effects of climate collapse.

On Thursday, the government said $2.6bn of climate change initiatives previously funded by CERF would continue, including a public network of electric vehicle charging infrastructure, decarbonising public transport, and public transport concessions for community service card holders.

But the climate change minister also said the government would discontinue the practice of ring-fencing money raised through emissions trading for that climate fund, meaning the previous government’s ambitious fund would be absorbed into the usual budget process.

Environmental group Forest and Bird said the budget signalled another blow in the government’s “war on nature”, and singled out its funding of the fast track bill.

“The government’s biggest new investment in the environment is to implement reforms that are going to cause untold environmental harm through the fast track,” said Richard Capie, the organisation’s general manager for conservation.

“In the middle of a climate emergency, you don’t walk away from investing in climate action – this isn’t business as usual, and to call it such is head-in-the-sand stuff.”

Gigli (2003)

Dir. Martin Brest, 2h 1m

"What do you morons think, that this is little Italy? Wake up! THIS IS THE TWENTY-FUCKIN'-FIRST CENTURY!" - Starkman

It's Trashy Tuesday folks! I can report that I have now watched Gigli. It's inspirational really, because you can write a film better than this one.

To quickly recap the plot...

Larry Gigli (Ben Affleck) is low-level mobster, tasked with kidnapping and hiding a young man named Brian (Justin Bartha). Brian has developmental issues and lives in a care home, funded by his big brother, an anti-mob prosecutor with a big case headed to court. So, Larry's gotta do some illegal babysitting.

Larry coaxes Brian out of the home and back to his apartment, but Larry's boss is convinced he's gonna fuck it up. Enter Ricki (Jennifer Lopez), the lesbian tough-cookie hired to co-babysit and make sure Larry does not fuck it up.

Which of course leaves you asking, why did Larry need to be hired at all? Why didn't Ricki get hired, day one, and leave "Larry the Fuck-up" out of the whole thing?

Because romance, guys! Dumb Larry is obviously going to be so charming he'll seduce the lesbian (very Chasing Amy wish-fulfillment energy). As they monitor their captive Brian, a hard-won admiration grows between Larry and Ricki, that could, just maybe, grow into love!

Pure fantasy.

Here's my series of thoughts about Gigli. Ben Affleck was not a believable mobster, like he didn't even try. Contrast that with what I thought was a good performance by Jennifer Lopez (it was very confusing). The brother with developmental issues seemed like a plot device where a "child" was required, without having to deal with pesky child actors - nothing about how this is handled makes sense. And look, I don't need my buddy comedy, action romances to have NASA levels of perfection, but this was glaring!

One part of me felt like, "Oh, this movie would be okay if you just changed...a, b, or c." By the time you get to "...l, m, n" you're talking about something different altogether, and you should watch that other film, or write it.

Brief moments of light are supplied when Christopher Walken and Lainie Kazan are onscreen as a detective and Larry's mother respectively. The closest the movie comes to being great is the scene when Al Pacino shows up as Starkman - the film's potential shows up there.

It's a bit crushing because Gigli was written and directed by Martin Brest, who directed Beverly Hills Cop and Midnight Run, two comedy classics.

The best thing I can say about Gigli is that it's not the worst film I've ever seen. You should still watch something else.

Watch instead: Midnight Run, Prizzi's Honor, Get Shorty

Brazil reports 1M wildfires over last 5 years

Data from the National Institute for Space Research (INPE), which monitors satellite information on vegetation cover, deforestation, and fires, reveal that Brazil experienced 1 million wildfires between 2020 and 2024. The year with the highest number of incidents was 2024, which, according to the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change, was driven by an exceptional drought—the worst in 74 years. A higher number of fires does not necessarily equate to a larger area burned.

Most of the hotspots are concentrated in five states within the Legal Amazon region. Over five years, there were 628,365 fire outbreaks, with the highest numbers in Pará (200,685), Mato Grosso (171,534), Amazonas (97,885), Maranhão (97,124), and Tocantins (61,137). These hotspots align with areas of agricultural expansion, primarily for soy and pasture, as well as regions affected by land grabbing and mining. All five states saw an increase in fire outbreaks between 2023 and 2024, with Mato Grosso leading the rise at 130 percent, followed by Tocantins with a 78 percent increase.

What's new in 2024 is the rise in fires in areas without a Rural Environmental Registry (CAR), meaning regions not officially registered as rural properties. Between 2020 and 2023, these areas accounted for 20 percent of the total fires in the five states with the highest registration rates during the critical months of August and September. In 2024, however, this percentage surged to 29.2 percent. Additionally, the share of large properties involved in wildfires increased from an average of 35 to 40 percent.

Ursachen, Symptome und Behandlung von Mundgeruch

Die Ursachen von Mundgeruch im Sinne einer Halitosis oder “Foeter ox ore” sind vielfältig. Grob lassen sie sich einteilen in Ursachen, die auf die Mundhöhle beschränkt sind (orale Ursachen) und solche, die andere Gründe haben. Im Mundhöhlenbreich spielt vor allem die bakterielle Zersetzung organischen Materials eine Rolle. Dabei werden flüchtige Schwefelverbindungen so genannte “volatile sulphur compounds; VSC” frei, die den Hauptbestandteil der üblen Geruchswahrnehmung ausmachen. Bedingungen dafür sind unter anderem mangelnde Mundhygiene,Zahnbelag, Infektionen mit Pilzen (z.B. candida albicans), Zungenbelag, Karies, offene Wurzelkanäle sowie unsaubere Prothesen. Des weiteren können Entzündungen des Zahnfleisches (Gingivitis) oder allgemein in der Mundhöhle, sowie eine Parodontose zu unangenehmem Geruch führen.

Nicht-orale Ursachen von Halitose sind am häufigsten im Nasen-Rachen-Raum zu finden und fallen in den Fachbereich des HNO-Arztes. Verstärkter Sekretfluss, Nasennebenhöhlenentzündungen (Sinusitis), chronischer Schnupfen sowie Entzündungen sind hier die Hauptursachen.

Zudem können Gründe bei allgemeinen Erkrankungen, starkem Rauchen, bestimmten Ernährungsgewohnheiten, Erkrankungen des Magen-Darmtraktes, bei Diabetes mellitus und der Einnahme von Medikamenten gefunden werden.

Diagnose der Halitose

Halitosis lässt sich in 3 Untergruppen einteilen. Halitosis, Pseudo-Halitosis und Halitophobie.

Halitosis beschreibt einen deutlichen Mundgeruch, der objektiv diagnostizierbar ist und von anderen wahrgenommen wird. Ein verstärkter Mundgeruch  tritt auf bei dem Genuss von Alkohol oder Knoblauch (physiologische Halitosis). Ein starker unangenehmer Mundgeruch kommt durch die Zersetzung von organischen Verbindungen zustande (pathologische Halitosis).

Von der Pseudohalitosis spricht man, wenn der Betroffenen einen Mundgeruch angibt oder wahrnimmt, der sich aber nicht objektiv bestätigen lässt.

Die Halitophobie ist ein Hineinsteigern in die Vorstellung unter Mundgeruch zu leiden für den es keinerlei Belege gibt und der Patient lässt sich nur schwer vom Gegenteil überzeugen.

Die objektive Beschreibung des Mundgeruches gestaltet sich allerdings recht schwierig. Ein recht einfaches aber nicht sehr genaue Methode ist die der “organoleptische Messung”. Der Untersucher bittet den Patienten ihn anzusprechen und prüft dabei den Geruch der austretenden Luft. Eine Klassifizierung in Schweregrade geschieht über den Abstand bis zu dem der Untersuchende etwas riecht. Grad 1 ist bis 10 cm von Gesicht des Patienten, Grad 2 bis 30 cm und Grad 3 bis 1m. Diese Methode dient allerdings nur der generellen Einschätzung, da sie durch verschiedene Faktoren beeinflusst wird.

Eine genauere Analyse erlaubt der Einsatz von Instrumenten wie der “Elektronischen Nase” und “Sulfat-Monitoren”. Ursprünglich für die Lebensmittelchemie entwickelt leisten chemische Sensoren für die zu riechenden Stoffe inzwischen gute Dienste in der Diagnostik des Mundgeruches. Luft wird aus dem Mundraum des Patienten gesammelt und die Zusammensetzung  auf VSC und  organische, aromatische sowie aminhaltige Verbindungen als auch Ammoniakderivate hin analysiert.

Eine kostengünstiger und meist für den täglichen Gebrauch in der Praxis geeignetere Geräte sind “Sulfat-Monitore” oder auch “Halimeter”. Sie messen spezifischen den Gehalt der VCL in der Ausatemluft. Auch hier wird Luft aus Mundraum des Patienten angesaugt und analysiert. Der Normbereich der VSC liegt bei 50- 150 ppb (parts per billion; engl).

Eine eindeutige Diagnose ist nur in der Verbindung von organoleptischen und gerätegestützten Analysen möglich.

Behandlung von Mundgeruch

Je nach Ursache ist eine fachgerechte Behandlung notwendig. Da 90% der Ursachen auf Prozesse in der Mundhöhle zurückzuführen sind, ist der Zahnarzt der erste Ansprechpartner. Grundlegend ist eine Reduktion der VSC durch Aufspaltung der Verbindungen und eine Reduktion der Mikroorganismen und deren Nahrungsgrundlagen. Ablagerungen und Plaque sind mit einer professionelle Zahnreinigung und eine Parodontosebehandlung anzugehen. Oft lässt sich der Mundgeruch wirksam mit einer Verbesserten Mundhygiene und verändertem Putzverhalten bekämpfen. Nach neueren Untersuchungen trägt auch eine gründliche reguläre Reinigung der Zunge zu einer Reduktion des Geruches bei. Die Industrie vertreibt zunehmend Zungenreiniger in verschiedenen Formen, teils integriert in den Bürstenkopf, teils alleinstehend. Des weiteren empfehlen sich Mundspüllösungen die nachweislich eine Reduktion der VSC bewirken. Das kauen von Kaugummis um den Speichelfluss und damit die Reinigung der Mundhöhle zu fördern zeigt hingegen keinen nachhaltigen Effekt.

Children's growth

During the course of their growth, children increase in height by around 1m 20, and their weight increases by a factor of 20.

In terms of height, the tibia and femur increase by a factor of 5, and the spine by a factor of 2.

Normal statural growth of the child's body segments

During intrauterine life, the child's growth is globally exponential for the first 5 to 6 months, then begins to decrease.

Between the ages of 0 and 5: the rate of growth is still significant during the first year, with the child gaining 25 cm.

Growth slows progressively over the following years, reaching around 2/3 of the adult rate by the age of 5.

From age 5 to 10: growth continues to slow, with an increase in size of 2/3 for the lower limbs and 1/3 for the spinal limbs.

From age 10 onwards, pubertal peak approaches and there is a reversal in the annual rate of relative growth: 2/3 for the spinal segment and 1/3 for the lower limbs.

From the age of 13 in girls and 15 in boys, there is no longer any growth in the lower limbs, but only in the spine.

Growth of the child's body segments

Growth of the lower limb:

10 growth cartilages contribute to the increase in length of the lower limbs.

femur: the upper chondroepiphysis is responsible for 30% of femur growth, the lower for 70%.

tibia: the upper tibial epiphysis is responsible for 60% of tibial growth, the lower for 40%.

all in all: 65% of lower limb growth takes place in the knee, whose trauma must therefore be treated and monitored carefully and over a long period of time.

Growth of the upper limbs:

humerus: its upper epiphysis is responsible for 80% of humeral growth, the lower epiphysis for only 20%.

radius and ulna: the lower epiphysis is responsible for 80% of growth, while the upper epiphysis accounts for only 20%.

in total: 80% of growth in the child's upper limb is linked to the growth plates of the upper humeral and lower radial and ulnar epiphyses.

Growth of the child's back

Each vertebra has 3 to 4 growth cartilages, and spinal growth therefore depends on the unique ossification of over 100 growth cartilages, hence the multiple spinal deformities that can be observed during childhood growth.

Schematically, each vertebral body is made up of an upper and a lower growth plate, much like the long bones.

These 2 conjugation cartilages tend to ossify towards each other, towards the center of the vertebral body.

Measuring sitting height enables us to assess the spinal growth curve +++.

At ten years of age, the upper and lower marginal listels appear, progressing from front to back, gradually ossifying and fusing with the vertebral body.

Ossification of all vertebrae is not complete until around age 25.

So, what's the bottom line?

Children's growth is complex!

Don't hesitate to consult a real specialist: he or she is there to diagnose, treat and, fortunately, most often reassure!
