The role of mass-movement in shore platform development along the Gisborne coastline, New Zealand
Tidal shore platforms form a conspicuous part of the coastal scenery north of Gisborne, New Zealand. Some of these platforms are being extended landward under present-day conditions. Present widening results primarily from cliff-retreat by mass-movement. The coincidence in distribution of areas of wave convergence, mass-movement and shore platforms suggests a genetic connection between these marine and subaerial process and response elements. Various types of mass-movement are involved in cliff-retreat, notably slumps, flows, debris slides and soil and rock falls. While the products of such mass-movement forms are removed by wave action, extensive boulder fields on some shore platforms indicate that removal is not always complete. Not all of the shore platforms on this coast are being widened at present. Widening has ceased where active mass-movement is not occurring
Shore platforms and mass-movement: A reply
Implicit in Mr Wright's note on shore platforms and mass-movement is a criticism of our findings on the role of mass-movement in shore platform development along the Gisborne coastline, New Zealand (McLean and Davidson, 1968). The lack of explicit criticism makes any reply difficult; we are not rebuked on our own evidence, nor is any fresh evidence presented from the same area to make it necessary for us to change or modify our original views

Letter: R.F. Pettigrew to H.L. Loucks, May 30, 1916
R.F. Pettigrew articulates to H.L. Loucks his distaste for the book that Loucks recommended to him. Pettigrew also mentions that he would prefer to remain distanced from any conference with the author of the book. Pettigrew expresses great admiration and interest in Loucks' manuscript and desire to read it further
The evolution of fat grafting : from soft tissue augmentation to regenerative medicine
The Author traces the evolution of fat grafting over the years from the first publication in 1893, to the systematization of the technique thanks to the contribution of Sydney Coleman. In recent years studies on the nature of adipose tissue have shown that besides multiple resident cells, fat tissue contains stem cells (ADSCs) capable of differentiating in multiple lineages, such as bone, cartilage, muscle, nerve, etc. Thus, in addition to the traditional notion that fat is a high energy reservoir, it becomes apparent that fat is a repair organ providing the basis for soft tissue regeneration. Manipulation of ADSCs promises to affect different fields of medicine and provide the physician with a variety of regenerative medical therapies
