A letter to the editor is presented in response to comments in the November 27, 2015 issue on visiting the United Nations.

The article discusses the use of sensors in micro-systems technology to make textiles equip with intelligent functions. It mentions the cost efficiency of textile pre-products assembled with micro-parts to integrate microelectronic sensors into textiles. It discusses a research project for development of manufacturing methods for textile substrates to be equipped with microelectronic parts, which used Jacquard weaving and braiding as production methods and polyester yarns as textile substrates.

Several letters to the editor are presented in response to articles in previous issues including Mekeel's "Old But Effective," in the May 10, 2013 issue, an article about multiplying by ten, and one from a reader narrating his tour of the United Nations (U.N.) Headquarters in March 1968.

Letters to the editor are presented in response to an article about the death of Dorothy E. Breen, the Good News candy bar, and the changes to the journal's design and editorial platform.

3rd generation IR modules - dual-color (DC), dual-band (DB), and large format two-dimensional arrays - require sophisticated production technologies such as molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) as well as new array processing techniques, which can satisfy the rising demand for increasingly complex device structures and low cost detectors. AIM will extend its future portfolio by high performance devices which make use of these techniques. The DC MW / MW detectors are based on antimonide type-II superlattices (produced by MBE at Fraunhofer IAF, Freiburg) in the 384x288 format with a 40 m pitch. For AIM, the technology of choice for MW / LW DB FPAs is MCT MBE on CdZnTe substrates, which has been developed in cooperation with IAF, Freiburg. 640x512, 20 m pitch Focal Plane Arrays (FPAs) have been processed at AIM. The growth of MW MCT MBE layers on alternate substrates is challenging, but essential for competitive fabrication of large two-dimensional arrays such as megapixel (MW 1280x1024, 15 m pitch) FPAs. This paper will present the development status and latest results of the above-mentioned 3rd Gen FPAs and Integrated Detector Cooler Assemblies (IDCAs).

Several letters to the editor are presented in response to articles in the previous issues including "Roxon's Men Fail Test" in the December 5, 2008 issue, "What's Normal?," by David Ringelblum in the December 12, 2008 issue, and "Fears Over Revamp of After-hours Items," in the November 28, 2008 issue.

Several letters to the editor are presented including on the privileges, happiness, and unique challenges as General Practitioner (GP), on the endorsement of Dr. Chris Mitchell's candidacy for Royal Australian College of GPs president, and on the article "What's in the name? 'Superclinic' stoush" in the June 27, 2008 issue.

Several letters to the editor are presented in response to the articles in the previous issues including skin cancer debate in the health care industry, inaccuracies in professor Chris Del Mar's response to a letter on skin cancer clinic editorial and the professional fees of pharmacists and physicians.

The article profiles musician, instrument maker and restorer Ursula Menzel. It states that she came in contact with brass instruments by chance, but after receiving a formal training she gained some experience in this field. Information regarding her education and various offices held by her is also given. According to the article, Ursula Menzel worked intensively on her projects and shared her knowledge and experience generously in publications.

Presents a letter to the editor about stamp collecting.

The Lachlan Fold Belt is a Middle Palaeozoic orogenic belt in which terminal tectogenesis occurred during the Early Carboniferous (Kanimblan Orogeny). This fold belt went through a complicated tectonic history and developed from the stratotectonic Lachlan Marginal Mobile Zone (or geosyncline of other authors). The Lachlan Fold Belt can be divided into structural zones which are characterized by varying tectonic styles. Zones of intensive deformation alternate with less deformed zones.

Suggests ways on how to decorate the bathroom. Use of wallpaper or wainscoting to transform an ordinary bathroom into something spectacular; Creation of a illusion of space using pale colors; Placing of indoor plants to make the bathroom more inviting.

The article focuses on research on the development of 3D textiles for use in modular bioreactor systems for the biological purification of effluent. According to the author, the aim of the cleaning process is to break down carbon compounds into carbon dioxide and water, convert organic nitrogen to ammonium first, and then to nitrate by the oxidation process, and reduce nitrate by anoxic means to form gaseous nitrogen.
