The purpose of the work is to analyze the medical blog as a genre of Internet communication. To achieve this aim, we designed and fulfilled the following objectives: to clarify the criteria for identifying a medical blog as an independent genre and to describe its genre characteristics. The methodology of this research included general scientific and linguistic methods and techniques: a descriptive method, observation techniques, comparisons and generalizations, discourse analysis, conversational analysis. The genre characteristics of medical blogs have been analyzed based on T.V. Shmeleva’s genre model. The communicative purpose, the author’s role and representation as a test addressor and the characteristics of potential addressee, the image of the past, the image of the future, and the type of dictum context and the linguistic tools for their implementation into the texts. The communicative goal of a medical blog is to convey the professional opinion of a specialist to readers, highlight issues that most often arise in medical practice, and disseminate medical and scientific knowledge among Internet users that is typical of information genres. Medical blogs also promote a healthy lifestyle and illustrate the nuances of medical procedures to help readers choose the right strategy for keeping fit and healthy. This type of communicative behaviour implements the informative and imperative goals of blogging. The author is presented from the standpoint of education, professionalism, responsibility, unselfishness and morality. Another distinctive feature is no phenomena of author’s anonymity, “virtual” and speech masks inherent in the diary blogs. The medical blog provides an unlimited number of recipients: fellow doctors and patients. This is an initial genre, providing for the extension of the communication of the addressor-addressee in the future. Dictum context of a medical blog is focused on reality, with a clear scientific position and rationality. The authors mainly use standard speech patterns within this type of genre.

The future of cardiothoracic surgery faces a lofty challenge with the advancement of percutaneous technology and minimally invasive approaches. Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery, once a lucrative operation and the driving force of our specialty, faces challenges with competitive stenting and poor reimbursements, contributing to a drop in applicants to our specialty that is further fueled by the negative information that members of other specialties impart to trainees. In the current era of explosive technological progress, the great diversity of our field should be viewed as a source of excitement, rather than confusion, for the upcoming generation. The ideal future cardiac surgeon must be a "surgeon-innovator," a reincarnation of the pioneering cardiac surgeons of the "golden age" of medicine. Equipped with the right skills, new graduates will land high-quality jobs that will help them to mature and excel. Mentorship is a key component at all stages of cardiothoracic training and career development. We review the main challenges facing our specialty�length of training, long hours, financial hardship, and uncertainty about the future, mentorship, and jobs�and we present individual perspectives from both residents and faculty members.

Buying and selling is a way to transfer land rights according to the provisions in Article 37 paragraph (1) of Government Regulation Number 24 of 1997 concerning Land Registration which must include the deed of the Land Deed Making Official to register the right of land rights (behind the name) to the Land Office to create legal certainty and minimize the risks that occur in the future. However, in everyday life there is still a lot of buying and selling land that is not based on the laws and regulations that apply, namely only by using receipts and trust in each other. This is certainly very detrimental to both parties in the transfer of rights (behind the name), especially if the other party is not known to exist like the Case in Decision Number 42 / Pdt.G / 2010 / PN.Mtp

This chapter describes two scenarios, the two possible ways in which the final act of the European project plays out. In the first scenario, European authorities remain confident that they have essentially been on the right track and they continue to make modest course corrections, which they believe will ensure a brighter European future. However, the elusive and frustrating pursuit of deeper economic and financial integration causes more economic and political damage. Setbacks and crises recur to test the euro and its accompanying political vision. In the second scenario, the pro-European vision, European authorities recognize the important truth that “more Europe” will not solve Europe's most pressing economic and social problems. They dismantle the economically counterproductive and politically corrosive system of fiscal rules and rely more on financial markets to enforce fiscal discipline. Paradoxically, the euro survives, not because it adds value but because it becomes largely irrelevant.
