Ihr Betriebsausflug - im Wildkräuterhotel SteinschalerhofJohann Weiss
Wildkräuterhotel Steinschalerhof
…liegt mit dem PKW nur ca. 50 Minuten von Schönbrunn
entfernt, an der idyllischen Mariazellerbahn im Dirndltal.
Es ist aus einem typischen Mostviertler Vierkanthof entstanden
und verwöhnt Sie mit regionaler Küche (ausgezeichnet
mit der „Grünen Haube“), liebevoll eingerichteten
Zimmern, Steinschaler Gastfreundschaft und abwechslungsreichem
Frezeitangebot bei uns im Dirndltal.
Eine sehenswerte Attraktion für Ihren Betriebsausflug sind
die naturnahen Gärten des Wildkräuterhotels Steinschalerhof.
Die Natur-Gartenanlagen sind - wie sich das für einen
auf Nachhaltigkeit ausgerichteten Betrieb gehört - multifunktionell
und so innig mit Ideologie und Betriebsalltag
der Hotels verbunden. Hier wird stets für die Restaurantküche
erzeugt: Gemüse, Wildkräuter, und Dekoblumen. Eine
hohe Biodiversität ist dabei ein sehr wichtiger Punkt. Daher
sind ca. 1.000 Pflanzenarten in diesen wunderbaren Naturgärten
zu finden. Entdecken Sie diese Naturgärten mit
einer kompetenten Gartenführungen!
Naturhotel Steinschaler Dörfl
Das Steinschaler Dörfl ist ein idyllischer Ort, nur 98 km vom
Stephansplatz in Wien. Er bietet all die vielen Möglichkeiten
des eigenen Dorfes. Beginnend mit Ihrer Firmenortstafel, Ortsübernahme
und Salz und Brot Zeremonie, gibt es zahlreiche
Bausteine für Ihr gelungenes „Rent a Dörfl“ mit vielen Brandingmöglichkeiten.
86ha stehen Ihnen zur Verfügung.
Das Besondere am Steinschaler Dörfl ist die einzigartige Lage.
Auf einem aussichtsreichen sonnigen Südhang liegt dieses
Kleinod ländlicher Lebenskultur. Behutsam revitalisierte Häuser
bilden den Kern des Dorfes. So blieb z. B. die alte Dorfsäge
erhalten, die heute ein stimmungsvolles Dorfwirtshaus ist.
Steinschaler Küche - regional, bio, vegetarisch & vegan!
Die Steinschaler Küche basiert auf zwei Säulen:
* regionales Fleischangebot nach klassischen und auch gesunden Rezepten
* vegetarische und vegane Speisen mit Bio - Wildkräutern und frischen Gemüse -
g‘schmackig nach kreativen Rezepten
Bei unseren Gerichten verarbeiten wir Kräuter und Gemüse aus unseren Biogärten
mit pflanzlichen Zutaten. Wir achten auf genfreien und österreichischen Ursprung
z.B.: bei Tofu und Seitan. Mit veganen Mehlspeisen, Eis oder Parfaits wird das vegane
Menü abgerundet. Gäste mit Unverträglichkeiten (Laktose, glutenfrei, ...) sind herzlich
willkommen - Geben Sie uns Ihre Wünsche bekannt - gerne bereiten wir Ihnen diese zu.

: Each essay should be one page maximum, double-spaced.
Program Essay 1
: Describe a unique perspective or skill set you have or a life experience. Articulate how it might benefit your potential classmates, enhance discourse in the classroom, and/or contribute to the NYU communicative sciences and disorders community.
Program Essay 2
: Based on what you have learned about our MS program in Communicative Sciences and Disorders while exploring this degree, please name two faculty members whose
research or fieldwork
you are most interested in and why.
I had no idea what speech pathology was, I initially wanted to be a nurse but after I had my daughter I couldn’t stomach being a nurse anymore. So I searched and searched to try and find something that intrigued me. One day I babysat my nephew and women came over, I thought it was for tutoring but when they went into the therapy session I found myself sitting by them really into the session. Once there session ending the questions just flew out of my mouth. Asking what was she working on, what type of field she studied, how long did she study, etc. that night I found myself doing research all night and I knew that’s what I wanted to do. Being able to help people communicate is an honor in my eyes. I like the variety of the field. Being able to practice in a school, hospital, at home health, etc.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.
