The human lower intestine is populated by an enormous number of microbes... These microbes are separated from the rest of the body by only a thin layer of cells and mucous lining the intestinal tract. As long as the intestinal microbial population does not penetrate the intestinal barrier, they coexist in relative harmony and in fact play a valuable role in digestion and processing of essential nutrients. It is believed that our commensal intestinal population is kept in place, in part, by the extremely active mucosal immune system present in the intestinal lining.

La partie inférieure de l'intestin humain est colonisée par une multitude de microbes [...] La seule barrière entre ces microbes et le corps est une mince couche de cellules et de mucus qui tapisse la paroi intestinale. Tant et aussi longtemps que la population microbienne de l'intestin ne franchit pas la barrière intestinale, ces voisins coexistent dans une harmonie relative et jouent en fait un rôle utile dans la digestion et la transformation des nutriments essentiels. On croit que le système immunitaire muqueux extrêmement actif de la tunique intestinale maintient, en partie, la population intestinale commensale du corps humain.

The so-called "soft-flow" machines use the same transport tube principle as overflow machines where the fabric is transported in a stream of dye liquor. However, while in overflow machines the reel is not motor driven, in soft-flow equipment the reel and the jet work in constant harmony to remove the fabric from the front of the storage area, expose it briefly to a high concentration of liquor within the transport tube, then return it to the rear of the vessel. The soft flow machines are more gentle on the fabric than conventional jet overflow machines.

Toutefois, alors que dans les machines overflow la tournette n'est pas entraînée par un moteur, dans la machine type «soft-flow» la tournette et le jet fonctionnent constamment de façon synchrone pour entraîner l’étoffe de l'avant de la zone de dépôt, la mettre en contact brièvement avec une forte concentration du bain à l'intérieur de la tuyère et la ramener ensuite vers l'arrière de la cuve. Les machines «soft-flow» transportent l'étoffe plus en douceur que les overflow classiques.

The term "horse vaulting" is a bit misleading. It brings to mind the aerial leaps performed in gymnastic competitions on a padded stationary block. But the actual sport of horse vaulting is one of the three classic disciplines of horseback riding, the other two being dressage and jumping. ... While vaulting does include jumping onto and off of a moving horse, it also involves much more, as I learned on a visit to watch the Great Falls Vaulting Team practice. Led by coach Jennifer Williams, the team’s members ride bareback, kneel and stand on a moving horse, and perform the sort of riding tricks you might see in a circus.

Vaulting is the art of gymnastics on horse back and is an extremely popular sport with young riders in Europe and is now growing in stature here in Australia.

Dragon fever is what happens every June when Dragon Boat racing teams from all over the world compete on the waters of False Creek to celebrate an event that is rooted in Chinese tradition since the 4th century BC. Since it began in Vancouver in 1986, the Canadian International Dragon Boat Festival has become an annual event, with nearly 100 local teams, 2,500 paddlers and over 100,000 spectators.

OBS

The Canadian International Dragon Boat Festival or Alcan Dragon Boat Festival takes place every June at False Creek in Vancouver. It is the largest and oldest Dragon Boat Festival outside of Asia. It was founded in 1986 by Honourable David See-Chai Lam and Milton Wong at the 1986 Vancouver World's Fair(Expo 86). It was first produced as a demonstration sport, being the first dragon boat race/festival outside Asia. It has grown in leaps and bounds and is not only recognized as North America's biggest and best, but also as the festival which kick started many other dragon boat festivals in the western world. The Festival was created as a showcase of Vancouver's growing cultural diversity and to promote racial harmony and cross cultural understanding to all Canadians-both new and old.

The aim of World Religion Day is to foster the establishment of interfaith understanding and harmony by emphasizing the common denominators underlying all religions. The message of World Religion Day is that, mankind, which has stemmed from one origin, must now strive towards the reconciliation of that which has been split up. Human unity and true equality depend not on past origins, but on future goals, on what we are becoming and whither we are going. The prime cause of age-old conflict between man and man has been the absence of one ethical belief, a single spiritual standard-one moral code.
