Fresh beer!
“There are a thousand small honest breweries in this country that because they have been too poor and localized to compete with the big boys have been forced to close, or else operate under famous names while they turn out yeast, or hops, or some other important but unnamed ingredient of the main company's beer. Now, with the trains full of soldiers and supplies rather than pale ale, perhaps people far from the great breweries will turn again to their local beer factories and discover, as their fathers did thirty years ago, that a beer carried quietly three miles is better than one shot across three thousand on a fast freight.” [emphasis mine]
— MFK Fisher: How to Cook A Wolf (1942)
*************
“I’m fascinated by the fact that she was writing this in 1942. I’m not necessarily an ‘all local beer is good beer’ fan, but this is one of the USA’s greatest food writers talking about beer not because she was being paid by a brewery or a campaign but because beer was part of her whole worldview of what we eat and drink.”
— Adrian Tierney-Jones, British beer writer
****************
“Mary Frances Kennedy Fisher (July 3, 1908 – June 22, 1992) was a preeminent American food writer. She was also a founder of the Napa Valley Wine Library. She wrote some 27 books, including a translation of 'The Physiology of Taste' by Brillat-Savarin. Her books are an amalgam of food literature, travel, and memoir. Fisher believed that eating well was just one of the 'arts of life' and explored this in her writing. W. H. Auden once remarked, 'I do not know of anyone in the United States who writes better prose.'”
— Wikipedia (accessed 28 September 2016

In sarcoidosis the granulomas are usually localized around bronchovascular bundles and fibrous septae whch contain the pulmonary lymphatics. Therefore, this distribution pattern is often referred to as "lymphatic localization" The explanation for this pattern of localization is that agents that trigger the formation of granulomas in sarcoidosis are minute substances that are inhaled into the periphery of the lung and then gain access to the lymphatic vessels in which they are are transported to the regional lymph nodes. Therefore, the granulomas tend to localize within and around lymphatic vessels. In this image the granulomas are localized around a fibrous septum containing a large pulmonary vein

Day 2
In UNICEF's effort to build back better the lives of Acehnese localized Integrated Health Centers were built through out the province under the Health Units program. Known as Posyandu Plus, the health centers provide pre-natal training, check ups and immunization for pregnant mothers as well as health services for children under five. Built upon a preexisting government program, the Posyandu Plus activities have built upon institutional knowledge for greater sustainability and effectiveness.
At the Posyandu Plus Ie Masen, in Banda Aceh the monthly children's chek up's were underway, involving children under the age of 5. Monitoring weight, height, and health of the children monthly helps in the long term development and well being while vitamin A drops and immunizations help keep the kids healthy. Along the way the mothers receive training and are given the opportunity to allow their children to socialize.
We interviewed Sanawiyah, 28, and her daughter Shafira, 10 months. Sanawiyah is a survivor of the tsunami and moved to the village of Ie Masen, Banda Aceh after her home was destroyed in tsunami. (after a two minute interview we realized she wasn't going to talk…but at least there is one nice moment where she is smiling)
Salwati,25, is an Early Child Development Care Health Cadre trained by UNICEF and now working at the UNICEF built Posyandu Plus in Ie Masen, Banda Aceh. The two children on her lap were born shortly after the tsunami in emergency camps. (left) Misrina Huwaida was born 13th March 2005 and (right) Bunga Mafirah was born 15th April 2005.
Diasabled since birth Ainul Mardiah and her daughter one-and-half year old daughter Zaidah, travel from a neighboring village to participate in the monthly health check up's at the Ie Masen Posyandu Plus in Banda Aceh. The integrated health center has provided her with pregnancy check ups, breast feedi
