Three Groups
The groups of the ethmoidal air cells:
- The posterior group (sometimes the posterior ethmoid sinus) drains into the superior meatus above the middle nasal concha; sometimes one or more opens into the sphenoidal sinus.
- The middle group (sometimes the middle ethmoid sinus) drains into the middle meatus of the nose on or above the bulla ethmoidalis.
- The anterior group (sometimes the anterior ethmoid sinus) drains into the middle meatus of the nose by way of the infundibulum.

Policemen so cherish their status as keepers of the peace and protectors of the public that they have occasionally been known to beat to death those citizens or groups who question that status.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)
“Instead of seeing society as a collection of clearly defined “interest groups,” society must be reconceptualized as a complex network of groups of interacting individuals whose membership and communication patterns are seldom confined to one such group alone.”
—Diana Crane (b. 1933)
