In everyday speech, a phrase may be any group of words, often carrying a special idiomatic meaning; in this sense it is roughly synonymous with expression. In linguistic analysis, a phrase is a group of words (or possibly a single word) that functions as a constituent in the syntax of a sentence—a single unit within a grammatical hierarchy. A phrase appears within a clause, although it is also possible for a phrase to be a clause or to contain a clause within it.
There is a difference between the common use of the term phrase and its technical use in linguistics. In common usage, a phrase is usually a group of words with some special idiomatic meaning or other significance, such as "all rights reserved", "economical with the truth", "kick the bucket", and the like. It may be a euphemism, a saying or proverb, a fixed expression, a figure of speech, etc.
In grammatical analysis, particularly in theories of syntax, a phrase is any group of words, or sometimes a single word, which plays a particular role within the grammatical structure of a sentence. It does not have to have any special meaning or significance, or even exist anywhere outside of the sentence being analyzed, but it must function there as a complete grammatical unit. For example, in the sentence Yesterday I saw an orange bird with a white neck, the words an orange bird with a white neck form what is called a noun phrase, or a determiner phrase in some theories, which functions as the object of the sentence.
HUGE THANKS to The Alzheimer's Association for graciously giving me time with and access to scientists currently researching the disease.

Dad Has Alzheimers. Now Watch What Happens When He Starts To Sing... AMAZING!
I am uploading this to help dispel the notion that Alzheimer's disease just makes you forgetful. It is a Fatal disease that slowly kills your brain over the course of years. There is no cure or even any treatment to slow the progression of the disease. My father clings to some the sense of doing chores, but just wanders around the house constantly doing things like this. I lost my mother to cancer nearly twenty years ago, and I think this disease is far far worse. My dad served his country as a An infantryman in Vietnam and then served as a police officer in the city of Detroit for 15 years before having to retire on medical disability after his patrol car was hit by a drunk driver. He does not deserve to spend his retirement like this.

And though it was discovered over a century ago, scientists are still grappling for a cure. Ivan Seah Yu Jun describes how Alzheimer's affects the brain, shedding light on the different phases of this complicated, destructive disease. Lesson by Ivan Seah Yu Jun, animation by STK Films.
More than 40 million people worldwide suffer from Alzheimer’s disease, and that number is expected to increase drastically in the coming years. But no real progress has been made in the fight against the disease since its classification more than 100 years ago. Scientist Samuel Cohen shares a new breakthrough in Alzheimer’s research from his lab as well as a message of hope. “Alzheimer’s is a disease,” Cohen says, “and we can cure it.” TEDTalks is a daily video podcast of the best talks and performances from the TED Conference, where the world's leading thinkers and doers give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes (or less).

El Alzheimer es un padecimiento irreversible y progresivo del cerebro que lentamente destruye la memoria y las aptitudes del pensamiento, e inclusive hasta la capacidad de llevar a cabo las tareas más simples. Esta enfermedad altera todo el entorno cotidiano y repercute en la vida laboral, familiar y social tanto de quien la padece como del cuidador. A medida que la enfermedad progresa, la persona pierde su autonomía, es decir, la capacidad de cuidar de sí misma y de realizar las más elementales necesidades básicas de un ser humano (alimentación, higiene, vestido, traslados, etc.), razón por la cual el cuidado de una persona con cualquier tipo de demencia debe ser planeado y asesorado, ya que conlleva una gran responsabilidad y un desgaste físico y emocional. Este miércoles, en Diálogo...
Ich bin Donya und 31 Jahre alt. Vor fünf Jahren bin ich aus meiner Studenten-WG ausgezogen. Wenn ich alt bin, möchte ich wieder in eine WG ziehen - mit meinen Freundinnen. Wir haben schon konkrete Vorstellungen: Wir wohnen auf zwei Etagen und haben einen Treppenlift. Einer unserer Pfleger ist durchtrainiert und hat volles Haar. Doch wie wird das Leben wirklich sein, wenn wir alt und auf Hilfe angewiesen sind? Wenn wir vielleicht sogar an Demenz erkrankt sind? Um das herauszufinden, ziehe ich für eine gewisse Zeit in eine neue WG. Ich teile mir ein Zimmer mit Hermine Kirschner. Sie ist 88 Jahre alt und dement.
This discussion by members of the Noonan Family (one of three families featured on the PBS program) is offered in connection with the broadcast of The Forgetting: A Portrait of Alzheimer's. The program is of particular interest to Alzheimer's professionals and patients, their families and caregivers. In 2004, millions glimpsed the Noonan Family's love of their sister Fran on the PBS special The Forgetting: A Portrait of Alzheimer's. Their love is not the fluffy, feel good stuff of fairy tales and romance novels, but the hard working love that paves the steep, unguarded, hair-pin curves of Alzheimer's disease. The Noonans survived Alzheimer's disease once, but they live it again and again knowing that each of them has a 50/50 chance of becoming a person with Alzheimer's disease themselves...

Cien mil moscas persiguen cabezas
para dedicarse a volar en torno a ellas.
Síndromes extraños retan a la ciencia,
colapsan hospitales y salas de urgencia.
Alzheimer.
Pierdes la memoria, olvidas el habla.
Si eras un capullo ahora eres una larva.
Tu mirada fija en un punto imaginario
y la boca abierta siempre babeando.
Rebaños de neuronas huyen en manada
de todos los cerebros que incuban esta tara.
Sálvese quien pueda, empieza la caza.
Pronto serás un hombre maraca.
Alzheimer.
Alzheimer, es tu síndrome.
Alzheimer, la nueva plaga.
Alzheimer, alerta roja.
Tres, dos o uno. Alzheimer arrasa.
Fúndete los plomos, quema tus fusibles,
tu mejor compañero será este síndrme.
Ahora embudos y camisas de fuerza
marcan el estilo que se agota en las tiendas.
Alzheimer.
Esta es la más chic de las enfermedades,
muchos la sufren aunque no lo saben.
Grandes eminencias y famosos dirigentes
siguen en activo mientras la padecen.
Ven a formar parte de este club privado.
El síndrome de Down ya no mola un carajo.
Alzheimer es tu amigo, Alzheimer presidente.
El mundo le aclama y las masas enloquecen.
Alzheimer.
Alzheimer, es tu síndrome.
Alzheimer, la nueva plaga.
Alzheimer, alerta roja.
Tres, dos o uno. Alzheimer arrasa.
