The International Pathogenic Neisseria Conference (IPNC) occurs every two years and is a forum for the presentation of cutting-edge research on all aspects of the genus Neisseria. This includes immunology, vaccinology and physiology and metabolism of Neisseria meningitidis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and the commensal species.

The 21st International Pathogenic Neisseria Conference (IPNC 2018) will be held in Asilomar, California, USA from the 23–28 September 2018.

History 
In the 1970s a series of conferences were held dealing with issues of meningococcal epidemiology and vaccination. Some of these conferences were held in Milano, St. Paul de Vence, and Marseille. But the first official conference was held in San Francisco, California, 1978. The location of the conference switched between North America and Europe until 2006 when the venue was located in Cairns, Australia.

List of Conferences

The Igor Stojiljkovic Memorial Fund 
In memory of Igor Stojiljkovic a scholarship fund has been initiated through the Emory University School of Medicine, to be used exclusively to provide travel funds to young investigators so that they can attend bacterial pathogenesis meetings such as the IPNC.

Pointe-aux-Prairies Nature Park is a large nature park in the Rivière-des-Prairies–Pointe-aux-Trembles borough of Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

The park is divided into three sections.  The northern part is between Gouin Boulevard East and Autoroute 40.  The central section is between Autoroute 40 and Sherbrooke Street East.  The southern section is between Sherbrooke Street East and the Saint Lawrence River.

Covering an area of , the park features marshes, fields and forests.

History

In the 1980s, the regional parks of Rivière-des-Prairies, Pointe-aux-Trembles and Bois-de-la-Réparation were combined into a single nature park. Following a competition held in Rivière-des-Prairies and Pointe-aux-Trembles primary schools, the Montreal Urban Community endorsed the name of Pointe-aux-Prairies for the park. This name was suggested by a young student who wished to associate the name of the two districts where the park is located. It was officially named in 1987.

Maison Bleau
Integrated to the park, the Maison Bleau, located at 13200 Gouin Boulevard East, is a rare example of a type of country house known as a "Quebec-style house" (). Rectangular in shape, a floor and a half tall, it features a pointed upturned gable, of which the front covers the veranda's full width. Built between 1851 and 1861, facing the Rivière des Prairies on exploited agricultural land, its rural environment has been preserved from urbanization. It is protected as a cultural asset on the Répertoire du patrimoine culturel du Québec by Quebec law.

The Sadeian Woman and the Ideology of Pornography is a 1978 non-fiction book by Angela Carter. The book is a feminist re-appraisal of the work of the Marquis de Sade, consisting of a collection of essays analyzing his literature, particularly the tales of sisters Juliette and Justine.

Her work was later criticized by the radical feminist and anti-porn theorist Andrea Dworkin in her 1981 book Pornography: Men Possessing Women. Unlike Dworkin, Carter sees de Sade as being the first writer to see women as more than mere breeding machines, as more than just their biology and, as such, finds him liberating.

Carter argues that Marquis de Sade was a “moral pornographer”, one that analyzed the relation between the sexes within his work. She argues that Marquis “would not be the enemy of women”, as she views his works as contradicting patriarchal notions of sex and feminity.

The Marquis de Sade’s pornography went on to influence Carter’s fictional work. In her collection of short stories published the next year, The Bloody Chamber, the opening story follows a young, unnamed French woman who is groomed into sex and subsequently, marriage by the scopophiliac, Marquis.

Stellaria pubera, commonly called the star chickweed, is a spring-flowering plant in the carnation family Caryophyllaceae, native to the eastern United States.

Habitat and range
Stellaria pubera is widespread and common. Its natural habitat is bottomland forests and mesic forests, where it is often found on rocky slopes. It is found chiefly from Pennsylvania south to Georgia and west to Indiana and Alabama, with scattered populations in New York, New England, Illinois, Nebraska, Mississippi and Louisiana.

Description
An early spring bloomer, star chickweed may be seen in flower as early as late March.

It grows  to  high. The leaves are ovate, growing opposite one another and usually attached without stalks to the weak and sometimes reclining stem. Close examination of the flower reveals that what appears to be ten petals are actually five, each deeply cleft. The blossom as a result looks star-like, with its white, pointed petal segments surrounding an off-white center. Stamens are tipped with dark anthers. The stem has rows of small soft hairs that switch sides at each node.

It is similar to Stellaria corei, with which it can easily be confused.

Etymology
The star-shaped flowers of star chickweed inspired the common and Latin name for this flower.  The genus name, Stellaria, comes from the Latin stella, meaning "star".  The species name, pubera ("hairy"), comes from the lines of hairs that line the stem.

Conservation 
Star chickweed is endangered in the state of New Jersey.
