Therapeutic theatre and spontaneity: Goethe and Moreno

Moreno noted a similarity between a late 18th Century play by the great German scholar and artist, Goethe, and some elements of psychodrama, which can be substantiated; however, Goethe was not, as Moreno suggested, an early promoter of spontaneity. The similarities and contrasts between these two men are intriguing

A new species of Colura (Lejeuneaceae) from the Aberdare Mountains, Kenya

The new species Colura zoophaga from the Aberdare Mountains in Kenya is described as new. It differs from C. berghenii and C. hedbergiana in the obtuse apex, which is rounded or only weakly prolonged. C. zoophaga also differs from C. berghenii in the smooth leaf-cells, from C. hedbergiana in the 5-horned perianth keels and from C. calyptrifolia in the papillose perianth. A key to the African taxa of Sectio Macroramphus is provided. The ecology of C. zoophaga is briefly described

Perspectives for low energy antiproton physics at FAIR

The CRYRING accelerator, previously located at the Manne Siegbahn Laboratory of Stockholm University, has been chosen by the FLAIR collaboration as the central accelerator for the planned facility. It has been modified to allow for high-energy injection and extraction and is capable of providing fast and slow extracted beams of antiprotons and highly charged ions. It is currently being installed at the ESR of GSI Darmstadt where it can be used with highly charged ions. The future possibilities for its use with slow antiprotons will be discussed.Comment: Proceedings of LEAP2013, 6 pages, 3 figures.

Late-onset hypogonadism (LOH) : an emerging pathophysiological entity requiring the physician's attention

Late-onset hypogonadism (LOH) is an emerging pathophysiological entity. Not everybody is familiar with LOH or even recognizes its existence. Since the 19th century women's life expectancy has become progressively greater than that of men and therefore their ailments associated with aging from the climacteric onwards attracted medical attention much earlier than male aging health problems. In addition, male aging problems start at a later age than the climacteric occurs in women. However, men's life expectancy is also continuously increasing: in Europe a newborn male now has a life expectancy of about 75 years, and a 60-year-old man has a statistical possibility of reaching 80 years of age. The increasing number of aging men forces physicians to focus on their health problems.peer-reviewe
