Little Italy/University Village is a neighborhood on Chicago's Near West Side that is home to a population of around 18,000 people with a median age in the late 20s. It has historically been inhabited by Greeks, Jews, and Italians, including the territory of the Genna crime family. The area is now known for its Our Lady of Pompeii Church, University of Illinois at Chicago, National Italian American Sports Hall of Fame, and proximity to the Illinois Medical District. During a visit, the group ate at a restaurant, walked around UIC, and were surprised to find many parks and green areas in contrast to downtown Chicago, concluding that they all wanted to return to the neighborhood.

Anthrax in lions wip3
Dr. Wilde is part of a research group monitoring an anthrax outbreak in lions. Lions can contract anthrax by eating infected meat or drinking contaminated water. Symptoms in lions include trembling, weakness, and depression. Anthrax is caused by the bacterium Bacillus anthracis, which forms spores that are difficult for the immune system to destroy. While some lions have developed immunity, monitoring, vaccination, and treatment can help prevent further outbreaks.

Performante Java Enterprise Applikationen trotz O/R-Mapping
The document discusses various approaches to improve performance of Java enterprise applications using object-relational mapping (ORM), including:
1) Using data transfer objects (DTOs) and constructor expressions to fetch data from multiple tables into flat POJOs in a single query, avoiding the N+1 select problem.
2) For some use cases, native SQL queries with constructor mapping or libraries like QLRM or jOOQ may perform better than ORM for all queries.
3) The document recommends using entities for command/write operations and DTOs with techniques like constructor expressions for read/query operations when performance is important.

Researchers found that certain bacteria and fungi were able to use polyester polyurethane as a carbon source and break it down. This suggests that microorganisms may be a promising approach for biodegrading this type of plastic waste.

Dr. Wilde is part of a research group monitoring an anthrax outbreak in lions. Lions can contract anthrax by eating infected meat or drinking contaminated water. Symptoms in lions include trembling, weakness, and depression. Anthrax is caused by Bacillus anthracis, a gram-positive bacterium that forms capsules making it hard for the immune system to destroy. Controlling animal movement, vaccination, and treatment can help prevent future outbreaks.
Kennel cough wip 2
Kennel cough is a highly contagious respiratory disease among dogs that is caused by the Bordetella bronchiseptica bacteria. Puppies, older dogs, and cats are most at risk. Dogs often contract the disease at boarding facilities or dog parks through contact with other infected dogs. Symptoms include coughing, loss of appetite, and fever. While most dogs recover without treatment, antibiotics and supportive care can help relieve symptoms. Vaccines are available but may not prevent all infections.
Car Battery Problems
This document provides tips for diagnosing and troubleshooting car battery problems. It discusses how batteries can fail due to faulty connections, corrosion, or disuse if a car is not used for over two weeks. Another potential issue is alternator problems that prevent the battery from being recharged. Common signs of a failing battery include the engine cranking but not starting, lights and electronics not working, inconsistent starting ability, and needing frequent jump starts. The document also provides steps for safely jump starting a car and tips for maintaining a battery such as keeping lights and electronics off when parked and not overusing air conditioning.

Little Italy is a neighborhood in Chicago located north of Roosevelt Road. It can be reached by taking the Red Line subway to the Roosevelt stop, then taking bus 12 north to Taylor Street. Little Italy was strongly influenced by Italian immigrants in the 19th and 20th centuries and was once the largest Italian neighborhood in the area. While some Italian businesses and bakeries remain, much of the neighborhood's housing was replaced by UIC and an expressway. Today it attracts many young professionals and students to its coffee shops and restaurants.
