Reverse brain drain: China engineers incentives for "brain gain"
Chinese who found it hard to fit in at the water cooler abroad feel newly valued at home as China creates a reverse brain drain of financial incentives for native talent to return.
Peter Ford/Staff
Beijing and Wuxi, China
Nowhere in the world has a government taken the task of tempting exiled talent to return home as seriously as in China.
That goal has been enshrined as a major national policy; the authorities see it as a key shortcut to putting China at the cutting edge of technology and boosting the country to the next level of economic development.
"The leadership is very, very aggressive on this – very proactive," says David Zweig, a professor at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology who is writing a book about Chinese returnees. "The Chinese government has been the most assertive government in the world in introducing policies targeted at triggering a reverse brain drain."

Beijing has a lot to work with. China is the world's largest source of overseas students – 14 percent of the global total, according to the Center for China and Globalization, a Beijing think tank that advises the government on talent recruitment. In the United States, 22 percent of foreign students come from China.

Tracking SQL statistics with ExtSQL
Because you might not want to share ExtSQL information with every user, the configuration file lets you specify the users who will have access:
The root user is always allowed access.
Controlling ExtSQL
Additional commands (Table 2) allow the database administrator to temporarily suspend data collection, store data, and even change what data is being collected – without a server restart.
A configuration option called extsql_reload_file allows you to store collected data, which is automatically saved and restored during a restart.
Future Directions
Development with ExtSQL should be strong, and we plan to provide a focal point for community discussion, bug reports, fixes, and enhancements.

So this is my new promotional postcard…what do you think? I kind of like postcards more than regular business cards, they're just more fun, and I think people are more inclined to keep them instead of hurling them in the bin. I'm really happy with the way they turned out!
Boy, did I struggle with writing the spiel on the back. I wanted to say something that captured the essence of my work, but didn't read like an artist's statement, and wasn't written in the third person (everyone knows you wrote it yourself, so why do that?). I wanted it to be clear and concise and not pretentious or boastful, but still positive (after all, I am trying to promote myself!). Urgh, I wrote about a thousand drafts and over-analysed every single word back to front and inside out until none of it seemed to make any sense anymore. *Sigh* I had to get it right since I was having 1,000 cards printed – it's hard to sum yourself up in a couple of sentences!
In case it's difficult to read in the pic, this is what I wrote (some of it I stole from my about page, which is due for a rewrite I think): "I find inspiration in the ghosts of our past; memory, nostalgia, and the things we collect that record our personal stories. Both newfangled and old school, blending digital and traditional media, my work is a bittersweet mix of levity and melancholy. Above all, I hope it is friendly, accessible, and brings people some of the happiness it gives me to make it. ~ Karena"
I thought it would be fun to give a few cards away. Would you like one? Just email me and let me know if you'd like a postcard, and I'll post one out with a little handwritten message on the back to the first 5 people who respond (no need to email me your name and address just yet – I'll let you know if you were one of the 5 and get your details then). Doesn't that sound like fun? Come on, it's better than the usual stuff that shows up in your letterbox, eg. bank statements and electricity bills.
PS. I'm having trouble with my blog feed. I realised that people were only getting a text preview with no images showing up, so I've tinkered with the settings, but I'm still not sure it's working. It's always disappointing to follow someone's blog and find you don't get any enticing photos in your feed! So if you happen to be subscribed to my blog and do get my pics appearing in your reader or emails, please let me know, I'll be so happy if it's finally working properly!
EDIT: Well that was fun! The five postcards have gone, but I think I'll do another postcard giveaway down the track a little. Sorry if you missed out this time!
Yes, you are coming up loud and clear in full Technicolor in my reader. And yes I would love a postcard with beguiling description on the back, I think you wrestled your words masterfully.
I don't have feeds, but your email comes up in my inbox, but no images.
Oh and would love to win one of your postcards, it looks amazing.
Love your postcard and such a great way to express your talents. Would love to win one of your postcards and thanks for the opportunity.
Looks awesome!
Well done you! I believe postcards to be better than business cards myself. Whenever a seller tucks one of their cards into an order of mine, I always use it to send my friends a greeting and spread the word of the artists that catch my fancy. Good luck, Karena!
I've come via Needle and Spindle blog. I've been having a look around your website and love your designs!! Your postcards are particularly fun!
everything you design is awesome!!!!!
I love your design work! You have such an awesome style. I'll have to stay tuned for the next giveaway! :)

Players reporting shortly, and a lot of offseason movement- Can't wait for Baseball!
I'm always excited about baseball. Always disappointed with the Bravos post-season swoon, but excited nonetheless.
Can't believe we're the only red blooded Americans on this board! Could probably stir up a baseball vs. cricket discussion...
I find baseball to be drearily dull. There's simply not enough action or physical contact to keep me interested. I view it as a "past time" rather than a sport... much like bowling, golf, billiards, darts, etc. (I'm sure I'll get flamed for this one, but that's how I feel about it.) -walker
My grandmother passed down the tradition to my mother who in the early 70's passed down the tradition to me of watching every televised Braves game during the entire season. We used to wrap things up a lot earlier in the year before the 90's. Extra innings was my only guaranteed pass for getting to stay up past my bedtime. I don't really have the time for it anymore, but I still watch a good bit. I listen to the Durham Bulls on the radio quite a bit, even though they're no longer affiliated with the Braves

Paul Brown Stadium officially opened for business this past weekend, with the Cincinnati Bengals inviting their new crop of rookies in for the annual minicamp. Orientation is the phrase of the day, with practices easing players back into things with a focus on fitness over physicality.

Senator Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr on Wednesday scored what he called a gag order on government officials as regards the encounter between members of the Philippine National Police Special Action Force and Moro Islamic Liberation Front in Mamasapano, Maguindanao which led to the death of 44 policemen.
"Ang problema kasi nagkaroon ng gag order ang gobyerno. hindi ko na makausap si (MILF) chairman (Mohaguer) iqbal, hindi ko makausap ang PNP commanders, hindi na sumasagot ng tawag. So there is, I think, although hindi formal, pero there seems to be a gag order and that doesn't help," Marcos told reporters before the start of the session.
Marcos is the head of the Senate committee on local government which is leading the hearings for the passage of the Bangsamoro Basic Law. He suspended the hearings pending clarification on the incident.
At least 44 PNP-SAF members were killed while 12 others were wounded in an encounter with MILF and Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters, a splinter group of MILF, in Mamasapano, Maguindanao last January 25. They were supposed to arrest Zulkipli 'Marwan' Hir, one of the most wanted Jemaah Islamiyah leaders operating in Southeast Asia.
Marcos said he was supposed to asked the officials on what really happened over the weekend and what should be done to prevent it.
"What we need to know here is facts, kailangan natin malaman ang talagang katotohanan kung ano ba talaga ang nangyari. Yun ang unang hakbang bago natin maayos yung BBL para nga mailagay kung anumang amendment, kung anumang probisyon ang kailangan para hindi na mangyari ito, para magkaroon ng tunay na kapayapaan sa Muslim Mindanao," he said.

TR Football - It's time for change
Some of you may be asking yourself...why is this being started Why do we need a change Why put yourself in this situation Well, you'll find your answers here. Shane Clark seems to be a good Christian man, but as you football fans know, so was Tommy Bowden at Clemson. There comes a point and time where you need to realize whether or not you are helping this team, this school, and this community. Shane Clark was hired because of his family, not because of his credentials. Like it or not, that's the way it went down.It's time to put away the good ole boy system that has trickled down into our youth association as well. TR Football has a "history" of being bad. Their last winning season was 2004 where they went 6-5 in Shane Clark's first season. Before that, they had not had a winning season since 1991 when they also went 6-5 under Jack Anderson. They have not been to the playoffs since 2005, and have not won a playoff game since 1984 (yes, 1984) So if the "history" of TR is bad, why do this Well, it's time for a change. It's time for TR to find a coach that can and will turn this program around. We had our chance to hire the former Greenville High Coach (and former TR student) Jim Sosbee in 2005, but chose to stay with Mr. Clark. Made sense at the time, as Shane Clark was region coach of the year that season, but looking back it was the worst move ever. At Greenville, Mr. Sosbee went 36-13, made the playoffs each year, made the quarterfinals in 2007 and made the second round in 2008. Since 2004, Shane Clark has led this team to a great record of 17-42 (as of this last debacle to JL Mann). In 2007, Greenville High posted 78 points against us, which is the most in TR history. This is also the same season that we went 0-10...that's right...DID NOT WIN A GAME!!!!!!! Last week, JL Mann, a team currently 2-4, posted 76 points on TR......looks like we're staying consistent, huh Bottom line is, TR needs to get the attitude that losing is UNACCEPTABLE...and it starts with a coaching change. For those that get upset by this, don't let the facts get in your way. If you support this change, please sign the petition below. Anyone not supporting this change need not sign.

Reader comments are listed below. Comments are currently closed and new comments are no longer being accepted.
On purpose I've separated my two comments: they cover two different matters.
For years I've been claiming that England (and I mean England) has been following the worst possible policy for herself: sitting like Humpty Dumpty on a wall.
Not making her head up whether to fully join or fully keep away from the European Union.
Like any other solution, both have advantages and disadvantages. Not choosing one of them has disadvantages only.
The decision belongs only to the English; the other Europeans will always welcome a fully committed England but won't be offended and even less retaliate if England leaves.
My often repeated suggestion for England to do a Norway would probably be a good solution, but obviously the decision is not mine alone and I could easily be wrong.
It makes me happy is that this is the first time I see England beginning to make her head up: leaving the EU.
Personally, I'd prefer the opposite solution but it doesn't really matter.
What is dangerously prejudicial is the decades long indecision: neither enthusiastically in nor decisively out.
We all know what happened in the end to Humpty Dumpty.
Thank God we have a Bagehot to compensate for Charlemagne.
Not because of opinions: everyone has the right to have his own.
But because of understanding: Bagehot understands how the world and that peculiar experiment, the European Union, works; Charlemagne does neither.
"BRITAIN is not about to walk out of the European Union. Opponents of EU integration may dream, but—in the near or medium term—no British government will risk a withdrawal in cold blood, in hopes of securing cut-price associate membership."
Nor is it about to ditch Sterling, as much as some may wish.
The EUrocrats and EUrophiles can scaremonger, but nobody is listening any more, the propaganda has all been said before.
In the meantime, if your happy to live in the Empire the EU is setting up, go ahead, more fool you and your editors.
To my mind, what bedevils any logical discussion lies in the "wrong language" common to any attempt to challenge the "Orthodoxy of the Brussels Elite" as big a bunch of Marie Antoinette s as Europe has ever seen.
You would no doubt claim to be a rational man and, I suspect that English may not be your Mother tounge but still, explain your lack of understanding of what is written:
ME:"The UK is a Union, quite right but one forged over centuries and with the spilling of blood plus, the sharing of bread and salt. Additionally and whilst there are major cultural differences between the Celtic Nations and England, there is both a common language and currency, none of this happened overnight."
YOU: "The key difference which needs to be pointed out to this englishman is that the union of nations into the UK was not a very friendly and voluntary affair, quite the contrary of the union of the EU."
Sorry but what is it in what I originally wrote that you did not understand ? Do you now accept the problem of language ?
Allow me to sketch out the position from a UK perspective as I see it and NO, I do not claim to speak for all in the UK but at least in part, my views have some validity.
The UK is Euro sceptic but you need to see that in context, the British 'anti-authority' bias that created our awful tabloid press and currently, is likely as anti-Andrew, Duke of York as it is anti-EU, has been re-enforced in it's distrust of authority by the "MP's Expenses Scandal".
As William Hague found out in an Election when he was Tory Party Leader, the EU and keeping Sterling is not a vote winning formula, the British electorate are just not 'jingoistic', the EU is not seen as that important, for now but, things are changing because of the Euro Crisis and all that could change further, overnight.
Yes, however we got there, the situation in Greece, Ireland and Portugal is not where we would start from but, the EU has failed to deal adequately with the situation because of the internal politics and stage of the electoral cycle of the only Country that can rescue the Euro Zone, Germany.
However, in order to understand where we are at, just considering Angela Merkel's political position internally and German politics, from a British perspective, is just not enough, we too have a voice and you need to consider the British political scene before you mumble about 'Britain's Advantages within the EU', it is a moving target.
We have a predominately Euro-sceptic Tory Party having to fight off English Nationalist Parties (- all elections are decided in England)and whilst a majority in a Coalition Government, the Tories are teamed up with the LibDems who will blindly and without question, accept anything approved by Brussels, it is even rumoured in some quarters that such is their mindset, they don't even wear underwear as a consequence.
Now into this mix and for internal German political reasons, in order to rescue the Euro, all kinds of demands are likely to be made of EU Members that will involve British 'sacrifices' although we are not part of the Euro Zone. If these impact further on a British economy undergoing substantial cuts in public spending, increased taxation and inflation, who is going to get the blame apart from the EU when the British Coalition Government is under pressure ?
David Cameron could survive with a minority Government for a time without the EU Loving LibDems but inevitably there would have to be a General Election in the middle of an austerity government. Under such circumstances and if you were David Cameron, being a "Defender Against Foreign Encroachment" would be the card you would play, just like Angela Merkel will do in Germany...
It matters not that much to me how you see things personally but reality says (where we are today), that Europe consists of Nation States and therefore the internal politics and dynamics of the 'main players' are important even for the 'camp followers' to consider.
The best result is for the UK to be outside the EU whilst however reluctantly, remaining the "external Arbiter" in the on-going Franco-German thing, a stupid game that has been going on far too long and historically, has cost us in these Islands, far too much blood and gold already.
The unity of the UK, common language and currency, has been achieved via blood and sacrifice but over many generations. However, you must never overlook that just not in recent days, full respect for the traditions of each of the 3 great Celtic Nations that also make up the 'Union', are respected.
One final point, you call me an Englishman, you are correct but what you don't know is that I am of Anglo-Irish origins with a Mother born in Wales and a Daughter-in-Law from Scotland, such is the nature of these Island Races and yes, we are proud but when it comes to Europe, I would suggest, every right to be so Sir.
I sense from a certain individual's comments on this article, on both the value of the union of the EU and the UK, that maybe there is a sense that given that the UK hasn't made its mark on the former, it should leave it, and the value of the latter is that England has so succesfully managed to 'impress' its culture and language on the latter, that it only makes sense for the UK to continue existing as the sum of its parts. I don't think that would sound too convincing to too many Brits.
The key difference which needs to be pointed out to this englishman is that the union of nations into the UK was not a very friendly and voluntary affair, quite the contrary of the union of the EU. And yes, there is a common language and currency. But that didn't come about as a result of happy agreements between the nations forming the whole. Your comments represent a form of home counties arrogance which is completely dismissive of the fact that the trend in the UK in the past has been rightly for devolution of power from London, as other British nations are given back some of their identity, and the ability to manage more of their own affairs.
The EU is a voluntary club, and the UK is still in it because there is great value in it. More to the point, the UK has been allowed to join on its own terms (with all the opt outs), so its been provided privileged status, as it were. Would it want to give that up?
Moving out would mean growing increasingly isolated at a time when the UK still needs to rebuild its foreign affairs credentials by showing that it is able to think for itself, rather than be dictated by Washington.
I just don't see what it would gain from it.
Well, I don't know how it can end well for Britain, but for the rest of Europe it would be a relief if Britain took leave. This debate on the necessity of the EU is just tiring and goes nowhere. Europe doesn't work because of that, so stop it and behold the improvements.
"The Lisbon treaty has given new powers to the European Parliament, a maddening assembly addicted to regulation and public spending. The European Court of Justice is ever more activist, handing down rulings that enrage British public opinion."
- The European Parliament is a democratic institution. If it is addicted to regulation, could it be, perhaps, that the majority of the population want it that way?
- The European Court of Justice does its work as it is supposed to. British public opinion (or any other, for that matter) is not entitled to enrage if there is no corruption involved. Judges know better than the readers of The Sun.
An interesting observation but one which rather neatly illustrates a bigger series of issues: The UK is a Union, quite right but one forged over centuries and with the spilling of blood plus, the sharing of bread and salt. Additionally and whilst there are major cultural differences between the Celtic Nations and England, there is both a common language and currency, none of this happened overnight.
In comparison, the EU is constructed on a short term principle of "We will build it and they will come, because they will have no choice."
It may well be that in time, the UK may reform itself into a more Federal structure for political purposes but economically after such a long gestation period, it has long been one unit and this has important consequences. The SE of England generates vast amounts of wealth a large percentage of which is redistributed to other parts of the UK with little comment or resentment.
You will not find the "Good Burghers of Guildford" resenting taxpayers support for the "feckless inhabitants" of former industrial areas that now need help from the Central Government. Within the EU, the Greeks, Irish and Portuguese will never be as lucky as the citizens of Newcastle, Liverpool etc in such regards.
That many within the EU including us, are having economic problems has less to do with the EU specifically, it is a general malaise caused by a lack of new and original thinking. Put another way, the West is not generating new wealth, new products and concepts, we have all become economically trivial as likely is best illustrated by saying that the most radical consumer product in a decade is the iPhone or the Kinect box, Lord help us !
Politically, the EU by 'pretending' that there has not been a major upsurge in Nationalism following the fall of the Berlin Wall, is being positively stupid. You don't contain and redirect to positive purposes such things by closing your eyes and sticking your fingers in your ears. The reality is that the default model for Europe is the Nation State, people need to accept that and get back to the original and correct concept of a "Common Market" forget all that nonsense about "Ever Closer Union".
As the opening up of China has demonstrated, trade, mutual dependency and mutual benefits between nations will keep the peace far more efficiently than Battalions of Troops. The EU is just another Austro Hungarian Empire, as currently pointed, it is doomed to eventual failure because it lacks the 'glue' to bind the hearts and minds of it's citizens in any kind of common purpose.
Interestingly, the UK itself is a union.
If baldy63 finds that the EU has "outlived their original brief and usefulness" then he may want to re-examine the UK itself into that light no?
An interesting article but and although I would admit to being a British "EU Sceptic", apart from owners of second properties in France, Spain or Italy, we mainly are, this piece doesn't really hit the point in a fundamental sense because the 'upcoming changes' are far wider than just the present "Euro Crisis" and have been building up a head of steam for some time.
I have little patience with people who say that it was the EU and its forerunners that 'have kept the peace in Europe' when clearly, it was the Cold War that saw to that. I would suggest that although not totally obvious at the time, when the Berlin Wall came down, so too did the major constraints that had formerly held Europe together. Although re-unification cost Germany a decade of economic growth, finally and quite rightly, Germany is taking a more self confident and leading role in Europe and the wider world.
Unfortunately and in doing so, it is illuminating just how fractured and economically disjointed the EU is in practical terms. The Euro Zone problems and whatever their origins, are just not being tackled, Greece, Ireland and Portugal really cannot 'carry the fiscal burden' they are currently expected to and all talk of guilt, just deserts and so on, are just childish nonsense.
The UK has no need to be a member of the EU, nobody within the EU 'buys from us' just because we are members of it and as a 'customer', we have far more power than we do as a 'supplier' anyway. To the greater EU members, it is not important to them whether the UK is 'in or out'. This is not the same when it comes to NATO, yes, it is very important that the UK is 'in' that organisation but the EU, who cares ?
The idea that the EU will split into two is highly likely except it will not be a two speed EU in a political sense, rather a German centric 'D Mark Area' encompassing Northern European Countries that will merge economically and the rest, a Eurozone Area where without Germany, the Euro can devalue 'naturally' to reach a workable level in terms of the value of that currency. The real problem will be which way France 'jumps'. In such a scenario, having kept Sterling in the first place, there is no particular role that the UK can play within it, we will and will be better off, by leaving the EU.
In a sense, both the EU and separately because it is a different thing, the ECHR are both post WWII constructs that have outlived their original brief and usefulness, both are long overdue for radical reform and I suspect, that time is close.

"While a little more complicated, the bustier and garters are perfect for special occasions. It's the underwear equivalent of that sexy red dress you have in your closet that you only wear on special nights out. But don't make it too complicated, it's supposed to eventually come off.

Bad Breaks
9 / 12
Heavily favored coming into this event, Aaron Gwin was derailed early in his race run when his prototype Shimano brakes failed. The brakes are early models of the current Saint stoppers that Gwin has used since January because he likes the lever feel compared to production models. It's a safe bet that the World Cup overall winner will be running stock Saint brakes in two weeks at the season's final race in Norway.

The Bangkok Chef kitchen is a treasure trove of fresh, exotic ingredients—from juicy mangos to crisp kaffir leaves to fiery chilies. Chefs fold the ingredients into a comprehensive array of traditional Thai specialties, including curries, noodle dishes, and stir-fries. Inside the bustling kitchen, you'll find them flying around stirring tender duck and pineapple into a red curry and peeking into pots of bubbling tom yum soup, ensuring each dish is spiced to perfection. Servers carry dishes out into the bright dining room, where soft lights illuminate intimate tabletops and comfy booths, and expert bartenders blend up lychee martinis and minty mojitos. The restaurant sometimes closes briefly after the lunch rush before reopening in the evening, allowing chefs time to assemble fresh ingredients for dinner or attend rehearsals for the kitchen's upcoming production of Oklahoma!.
The chefs at Anothai Cuisine and Nara Thai Dining grind their own fresh herbs and spices to awaken patrons' tongues with each bite of their Thai dishes. Pungent curry coats seafood, chicken, and noodles, and on the other end of savory-to-sweet spectrum, mango imbues shrimp with flavor that evokes the tropical drinks of which ice fishermen's dreams are made. Artfully arranged garnishes complement colorful dishes to excite the eyes, which can scan the bright red and white accents between bites.
Begin your culinary journey with an order of spring rolls or cheese rolls, stuffed with raisin-studded rice paper and deep-fried (both $4.25). Classic dishes done well appease traditionalists, including spicy Tom Yum soup ($4.25–$5.25), pad Thai ($8.95), pad see eiw ($8.95), and five kinds of curry ($8.95–$9.95). Build a balanced meal with the entree and rice dishes including garlic and pepper lover ($8.95) with stir-fried meat tossed in black pepper sauce over cabbage. Diners can also pick from grilled selections ($10.95–$12.95), served with shrimp fried rice and steamed veggies. Cool off a spice-saturated palate with a sweet scoop of coconut ice cream ($3.50) for dessert. Expect friendly service, carefully curated curry, and a cozy ambiance at any of the eight outposts. Like the recipe for Play-Doh, Thai Cottage adheres to simple, timeless standards.
At Ginger Thai Restaurant, Mondays are yellow, Tuesdays are green, and Wednesdays are red. The lunchtime Curry of the Day continues with panang and massaman on Thursday and Friday, respectively. The curries hardly limit your meal, though, as an appetizer buffet offers a variety of sushi, soups, and rolls for snacking.
The chefs at Thai Jasmine begin their workday well before lunchtime, assembling the flavorful basil, crisp baby bok choy, and tangy fruits they will need for the day's dishes. They fold the fresh produce, meats, and spices into the authentic Thai specialties lauded by reporters from the Houston Press as "some of the honestly best Thai food in town". The chefs simmer up red, green, and yellow curries with coconut and bamboo shoots, and grill chicken, pork, and beef in a tangy Thai barbeque marinade. And, for dessert, they serve scoops of ice cream with fried bananas and sticky rice. But there is one thing they don't handle: drinks. Luckily, the BYOB eatery welcomes guests to bring beverages purchased at an outside store or squeezed from a roadside cactus.
When ordering a dish at Bangkok Thai Cuisine, you always know what you'll be getting into. The restaurant classifies its dishes according to four levels of spice: mild, medium, spicy, and Thai hot. The last of these is reserved for those brave diners whose dietary staples consist of jalapenos, deep-fried chilies, and dragon meat. The rest appeal to a more diverse crowd and include highlights such as sweet-and-sour tilapia and eggplant with basil. Despite the menu's penchant for customization, there's only one word to describe Bangkok Thai's dining room: warm. Chairs of rich cherry wood juxtapose spotless white tablecloths, and plants bask in the glow of small red lanterns that hang from the walls.

US 2685877 A Abstract available in Claims available in Description (OCR text may contain errors) Aug. 10, 1954 M. DOBELLE FEMORAL HEAD PROSTHESIS Filed March 20, 1952 I INVENTORQ Mari/'1? D0 Ze/AP, 0 Z 0 M 552E227 MIE ATTORNEY Patented Aug. 10, 1954 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2,685,877 FEMORAL HEAD PROSTHESIS Martin Dobelle, Pittsfield, Mass. Application March 20, 1952, Serial No. 277,658 Claims. The object of the invention is to provide means for obtaining a functional hip which would otherwise be non-functional when the head of the thigh bone was destroyed, impaired, or injured beyond repair, or where injury or disease has destroyed the hip joint and stifiened the latter so that motion is greatly limited, if not impossible; to provide a femoral head prosthesis which, when in position in the neck of the femur, will be retained in position without danger of loosening except under such conditions as would fracture a strong or healthy bone; and to provide an appliance of the kind indicated which is of simple form and therefore, simple of application with ordinary skill on the part of the surgeon. With this object in view, the invention consists of a construction and combination of parts of which a preferred embodiment is illustrated in the accompanying drawing wherein: Figure 1 is a side elevational view of the upper part of a femur in which the head or proximal fragment has been removed and replaced with the improved femoral head, the dotted lines indicating the initial position of the parts in placement. V Figure 2 is a view similar to Figure 1 but shows the femoral head finally positioned, the dotted lines indicating the relative positions of the parts; Figure 3 is an axial sectional view of the improved femoral prosthesis, the keys being shown in extended position; Figure 4 is a sectional view similar to Figure 3 but with the locking keys in retracted position; Figure 5 is an elevational viewof the key actuator screw; Figure 6 is an elevational view of the lock screw; and Figure 7 is an elevational view of one of the locking keys, detached from the device. In the use of the invention where the head of the femur is pathologically impaired beyond the point where normality can be restored, it is removed and in old injury or disease the socket of the attendant acetabulum is reamed out for the reception of the prosthetic head which is. applied into the neck of the femur to replace the head removed therefrom. The operation of applying the prosthetic head consists of boring the neck of the femur along its axis beyond a straight line passing through the great and lesser trochanters. The bore having been prepared, there is then applied the prosthetic head H) which is of plastic and stainless steel insert and which is formed with a shank l l, which enters the bore, the lower end of the shank 2 tapering as indicated at I2. The bore, of course, is made with a suitable reamer (or with a drill followed with a ream'er) so that there will be a snug fit between the shank H and the wall of the bore, the latter, of course, being in the medulla. But the head must be securely anchored to the femur and to this end the shank H is moulded around and has incorporated with it a core it which is formed with a longitudinal bore l l, this bore being of a diameter corresponding to and registering with the bore id in the lower end of the shank H. The shank H is formed with lateral slots l6 and the core with lateral slots ll and adjacent these slots H, the core carries the lockin keys ls which are pivotally mounted, as indicated at 2%. By reason of this arrangement, the key may be swung downwardly to nested. positions within the periphery of the core it, or they may be swung outwardly to engage the medullary cortex, the former position being shown in Figure 4 and the latter in Figure 3. But the keys must be actuated to extended position and to this end there is provided a screw it formed with a pilot 2fl-,the latter engaging the heel ends of the keys when the screw is ad'- vanced, the screw threadingly engaging the bore of the core and the pilot moving axially therealong. A prosthesis is applied, after the preparation of the receiving borein the neck of the femur, by gently driving on the head with a cupped mallet until the shank is fully seated' When this has been accomplished, the screw 59 is advanced and the pilot then engaging the shoulders El on the locking keys, will raise the latter, causing them to penetrate or engage the medullary cortex and thus lock the shank and with it the head in the desired position on the femur. The screw it is actuated with an ordinary screw driver of which the bit is inserted in the kerf of the head 22 of the screw. When the locking keys have been fully advanced, the position of the actuating screw lit is retained through the instrumentality of a lock screw 23 threadingly engaged with the upper end of the bore of the post. It will be noted that the core is terminated just short of the dome of the head, thus forming a shoulder on which the head of the set screw 23 may set, with the head of the screw below the femoral head. Thus there is no projectin metallic part. It will also be noted that the operation of setting the locking keys results in their being raised from a pendant position from their axes to positions normal to the axis of the shank. Thus the slots which they cut in the femur are below them, and the upper hinges have firm; bearings tthroughout their lengths within the neck of the femur, thereby providing a firm anchorage to keep the prosthetic head in place. With the socket of the attendant acetabulum reamed outwith aistandard cupped; reamer or adequate otherwise, the acetabulumis then in condition to receive the new head with the result that a new hip joint is formed. Because of the inz-- ertness of the material used in the prosthesis, further bony growth, which would defeat its pur pose, is avoided, thus givin an otherwisezcrippledi individual a painless weight-bearing functioning hip. The invention having been described, what-is claimed as new and useful is: 1. Femoral head. simulating the. natural head of the femur; the samehavin'ga shank insert'able iii a reamedhole formeuin'theneck of the femur, a plurality of" locking members carried in the shank, and shank-encIoSed means for advancing said locking members into engagement with the surrounding bone of the femur. 2.

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
Do not buy from InfinitiPhoto.com. They are running a scam. I ordered a Sony DSC-1M yesterday and received an email (attached) saying I needed to call them and "confirm" my order. I had feeling before I called that it was a scam. Sure enough, the guy asks me "What kind of battery do you want with that?" What?!? No battery? (BTW, I double-checked their web site, the product specs describe the lithium battery twice.) I laughed and told the guy he was running a scam. He said I should complain to Sony and started rattling off an 800 phone number. Then I said, "allright, I will take it without a battery and find a battery somewhere else." He didn't like that. Clearly he was going to lose money on the camera at the advertise price if he couldn't sell me the battery or other over-priced accessories. So he then feigns hurt feelings for being called a scamster and I asked if he could just cancel the order. "I already cancelled it" was his reply. Do you think their accessories are overpriced??? Case in point, Infiniti sells a no-name 512MB memory stick duo for $249, TigerDirect sells Sony-brand equivalent for $99.99, other brands are cheaper. --------------- Infiniti's Email --------------- Dear [my name], order # -xxxxx Thank you for your order: We have received your order but for verification purposes please call us at 1800 593-0026, Ext. 232or you can try us at 718 627 6066, Mon-Fri from 11:00am(est)-8:00pm(est)Sun 11:00am-6:00pm in order to process your order thank you.

I was looking for a GS400 camera and, naturally, stumbled on infinitiphoto.com with their impossibly low price. After reading online about what a scam they are, I decided not to order from them and found another webpage with a great price, bestpricecamera.com. Low and behold, I got the SAME sales guy from the other place. I told him that I talked to him at infinitiphoto.com and he told me that he never heard of them. I thought I might have miswrote the numbers and names, so I went to the infinitiphoto webpage and checked. I called him back and told him that my 30-second search showed this to be the case and I was "accidentally" disconnected. I called back again and, after an apology, I was quickly--within seconds--transferred to another sales person who told me that "Ben" was busy with another call. I called back Ben's extension several times and he didn't answer. I was told at one time by a sales person that they had 250 sales people, and another time the number was 75--and yet I managed to get Ben on more than one occasion. With this kind of luck, I may have to play the lottery! He told me that all the negative reviews online were from competitors; How he was certain of this, I am not sure. When I finally got through to him the last time, he said that they were affiliated with infinitiphoto but were different companies--something too ridiculous and confusing to follow. I said, "When I asked you before, you said you never even heard of infinitiphoto." He literally used an excuse that was equivalent to when our government uses, "national security" to avoid dealing with an issue. Earlier he had said to me, "Look, all I can do is give you my word." Back in the day, that used to mean something. To the unscrupulous, it is just another sales technique.
His word is worth about as much as these bait and switch websites. I am checking to see if this website is in the database. If so, you should write at least an express review (under 200 words) to warn consumers of this site's tactics. I will be back with info on how to do do that if I find the site in the DB. If we all write reviews about these places, people will see them and will be warned and, hopefully, will avoid these types of sites. By the way, there already is a thread for this website further down. I would appreciate it if you could move your posts to that thread and I will delete this one so we have just one thread for the same site going. Otherwise, the boards get all clogged with duplicate threads. When you copy your posts to the existing thread, leave a message here that you did so I can delete this one, please. Thanks! Patty
What a crock these guys are....ordered a DVD camcorder for $539. Online order went thru. Said nothing about camera not being available. Well 2 weeks went by - no camera. Decided to call - they said they tried to contact me (did not)and that the camera was backordered and would be available in 2.5 weeks. OK. so this would be 12/5/05 So I call today to check - no the camera will not come in until after Xmas now. But they do have a full kit for $779 that they could ship right away. Told me that what I ordered was OEM, no battery, no manuals, just the camera. The webpage does NOT state that - not one place! What a rip off - Camera was a "lost leader" to get me there and order a kit. Will NEVER do business with them and hope others will not too. Do not order from Best Price Camera www.BestPriceCameras.com
Add www.expresscameras.com to the list of scam photography sites. It's the same process - you place an order, get an e-mail asking you to call and comfirm a while later, and then comes the experience of dealing with the weasles. They tried to sell me everything from memory cards to freeze dried turkey giblets, and when I insisted that I just wanted what I ordered, I was told "okay" and saw an e-mail 10 minutes later stating the merchandise was backordered and could not be shipped for at least a month. Watch out, and be leary of sites that offer considerable discounts over the market rate.
This is the same company as those mentioned above. My experiance: Bought lowest found priced Canon DV camcorder at website. After 2 days, company called and asked what size battery I wanted with this camcorder and gave me $70-$130 price range. I was told battery is not included in cost when I asked where the battery was that Canon put in the box at the factory? Said 2 types of kits are sent to authorized sellers, with and without battery. I chose lowest priced battery, instead of cancelling, because the price was still lower than anywhere else. 3 days later, after seeing money gone from my account $95.00 more than authorized to seller, I called and was told there was an extra fee for shipping the battery in the box and also an additional insurance fee for the battery. The whole package weighed 2.0lbs for the camera, manuals, accessories and battery and was all in one box. I am contacting Mastercard about this practice and also the BBB and New York Attorney General about this fraudulent practice. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THEM or their related "shell" company names. They are crooked dealers!
12/26/2005 Well it seems BestPriceCamera.com can reach lower. They billed me $500.00 and never sent me anything. I had ordered a Canon Rebel XT body and knew that was what I was going to get. Two days before Christmas the item never came so I called to cancel. �Victor� was my rude sales guy/manager. He told me the item never shipped and billed me anyway. Hope my credit card company can help me out. email@example.com
Wow, I wish I read this first. I ordered a camcorder from Bestpricecameras.com and got the same sort of response listed above. As "Adam" continued to try and upsell me everything and the kitchen sink for the camera. He became more and more belligerent the more I refused his generous offers. I don't think my amusement at his ordeal helped the situation any. I told him to quit or he'd lose the order. When he didn't, I cancelled. For anyone considering using these guys, beware.
I wish I had come looking at these posts before ordering as well! I ordered my Canon 20D in one of the kits 10 days ago, got a confirmation call 2 days later with the guy trying to sell me batteries. I was like, whatever, just send me the cheaper one. Then I thought about it, looked around and found them cheaper elsewhere, called the company back and cancelled the batteries and the guy was kinda snotty, like how are you going to use the camera? And I told him I found a better price elsewhere. So going on over a week now, I haven't been charged for it, no other emails, nothing. I call them today. Oh well that's backordered 2-3 weeks. I was raving. I told them I was lied to and that I was very unhappy with the service and to cancel my order. It took me a couple times telling them to cancel before they did. Now I worry they will still charge my account, so I'm keeping an eye on it. Stay away from them!!!
I had a similar experience with bestpricecameras.com. Adam was the ripoff artest I dealt with. They called me two days after placing the order. He wanted to confirm my credit card. Then he informed me that the camera didn't come with a battery. He wasn't happy when I told him I didn't want to order a battery from him. He then told me it would ship in 2-4 weeks. I hung up. Called back in 5 minutes and told ADAM I wanted to cancel. He said its alread done. Amazing these guys can stay in business. Hopefully we can get the word out and shut these guys down.
i got scammed too. i worked for a large internet provided for a number of years, then for a large computer mfg company. i thought i knew better when it came to shopping online. i feel like such an idiot. i *found* the nikon d70s kit on bestpricecameras.com for an insanely low price. blinded by the sales price, i ordered it. i rec'd an email stating that i would need to confirm the order, etc. they called me on a sunday morning to confirm it. they *sold* me a battery (i thought it came with one) and never did give me a total price, but i was half asleep so i didnt catch it. ffw 4 weeks, i tried to call them during stated business hours becuase i hadnt heard anything about my order and my emails had not been returned. after fighting with the phone system i got a recording saying that i had reached them outside of business hours. even though their web site states the hours and i was well within. i never did get ahold of them, but about a week later 2 charges showed up on my credit card for a total of about the same as what the camera would have cost. one of the charges is for a walgreens on the other side of the country from me for $535. how in the heck do you spend $535 at a drug store?!?! i think they took my credit card number and used it for other stuff. not only are they scamsters with the product they sell, but possibly theives too. be super careful shopping online. like i learned, if its too good to be true, it probably isnt real. -feeling scammed and other yucky feelings, miranda
They are a complete rip, guy calls me up asks me if I want an extended battery and quick charger for $30 more, I say ok, try's to sell me an extended warranty, i say no. They go ahead and add it on anyhow, ship it, original price ordered was $265, price charged to my carad $407. Total scam, they will just hang up if you call them and ask them for an RMA number. AVOID bestpricecameras.com at ALL COST
Just got scammed also with a Panasonic PV-GS300 advertised at $489 on their web site. I paid a total of $869.99 for a non-existing "deluxe package" and a supposed "optional" Battery and Charger. Can't return the camera. They never replied to my calls within the "7 days". Too Bad, the camera is great. Nobody has filed a complaint with the FTC yet? Why not make a joint complaint and take these crooks out of the market?
Hi everyone, Thanks everyone for making an effort to write about bestpricecamera.com website. I wanted to buy the projector and their prices were insanely low, so I decided to check up on them thru epinions.com and what an eye opener it has been. NEVER BUY FROM BESTPRICECAMERA.COM Thanks everyone for posting and giving your honest opinion.
I knew if I checked here y'all would validate my suspicions about BPC. I mean, the Rebel XT at $130 below the best discount price anywhere else! Sony 50" HDLP at $300 below. Thanks for the heads up. Otherwise, when I skipped over the ridiculous price, I would always have wondered..."gee, maybe it was just an overstock sale". When I called them, I asked if they have (XT's) in stock. They said "No, but we will get them within 10 days." Right. Apparently thay make more money this way than by completing a normal sale. This is obviously a business model that works for them, but it is based on customer ignorance. Thanks to all of us for educating one another and hopefully the masses. Anyone know if Genius Camera is one of their satellite companies? They also post the same price, and the web-link site indicates the XT is not in stock at their store.
Hey, One of my mates just ordered for me a Sony T9 camera on www.bestpricecameras.com .The price looked more than interesting (wondered why) but I figured the company/website looked pretty serious. Later on , Infinity photo called my mate to ask him if he wanted to purchase a battery and a charger, cuz the camera doesn't come with it (????). My buddy called me then to say that the price went up from $315 to $509. What the *%@�?? Today I found your website where everyone agrees that this company is a big scam. I freaked out! So I called my mate telling him to cancel the order, block his credit card. He called Victor (not Ben, or maybe this is Ben too!?) at Infinity Photo. The dude refused to do anything pretending that the package was shipped already. Then I called them and here's what they do. According to "Victor", this company buys tons of products from Sony, Canon.... that's why they are so cheap. On the flip side, items come one by one, so there's NO RETAIL BOX (which always includes a battery, a charger...). So to sum it up, what you buy is ONLY the item you see on their website. Don't expect to receive the same box that you'd find in a retail store. They sell packages that you can upgrade (or they make you do so). Finally, the more items are shipped to you the more expensive the shipping gets!!!! After 30 min of discussion with Victor, he decided to refund $50 (the new shipping price) on my buddy's credit card. I should get it on Monday. if not you'll read me soon! All in all, go buy somewhere else! such as B&H camera. Good luck and think twice. And thanks to everyone who writes on their stories (shorter than mine!) G-MAN (France)
I have to agree with everyone of the above opinion. Unfortunately their prices seemed to good and I bought after all. Here is my story: I have bought a Canon EF70-300 USM IS from this joint and though I get a good deal (for soem reason I did not reserach their rating prior to buying from them like i normaly do). The lens was listed at $519 and I would receive a free tripod, lens cleaning kit, and LCD cover protector. When I was gone, they called my wife at home to "confirm" the order. Well, they did their usual tactics and upsold my wife to an order of 729.99, which includes a 3-piece hi-res filter kit, a lens pouch and a 5-year warranty, as well as a hood. Beside the fact that I would not have wanted all this, I thought to check out the deal at B&H Photo and they came up $35 cheaper. Well, I received the package 4 days later and received the lens, the warranty, the filter kit, and the pouch. No tripod, cleaning kit, LCD cover or hood were in the box. I tried to contact them several times but no answer. I went to B&H and quote the stuff I actually received and bestrpricecameras "overcharged" $120. I probably never see any of the other items based on experiences that other people had with them. IF YOU PLAN ON BUYING FROM THEM....DO NOT....DO NOT...DO NOT..... If the deal seems better than any place else, it is..... Their practices are boderline criminal and I will investigate my further actions to make sure they get closed down 4/18/05: ATTENTION-ATTENTION My debit card was just charged for $98.96 from a company who verified my credit card info at a Brooklyn cell phone. Somebody authorized several credit cards under that same phone number. I was a little surprised to find out that the only time I used my card was at bestpricecameras.com who is based in Brooklyn. They are not only crooks, they also employ them. DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY OF YOUR CREDIT CARD INFO AND STAY AWAY FROM THEM!!!!!!!!!
Wow, I really wish I would have known of this website prior to my business transaction with Best Price Camera. I have filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau against BPC and strongly recommend others to do the same. BBB does not have the authority to enforce retribution or repayment but unless some one else has a better idea the "black mark" from the BBB is a start. If any one knows of a way to file a claim against this company I would be glad to hear it. I can not believe there would not be some type of safeguard against a company like BPC. Is there some way to place a complaint on their website for others to see prior to them doing business with those scam artists?
The Attorney General does have the authority to get your money back. Find out who yours is and get a hold of him or her ASAP. You will get action fast! Patty
I owe a ton to you folks here on Epinions. First I tried PCandPlasma and got the same experience as everyone else. The price was too low and the guy was incredibly rude and pushy. I asked him why the TV was so cheap(the Sony KDSR60XBR1 Grand Wega which is supposedly being sold at $2599.99, a whopping 2Gs below retail). He said it was the Taiwanese version that lacked the US warranty. I was like "well that's good to know because your website says nothing about that." After pushing him for a while he said "Well you dont really want that one anyway because it has Taiwanese menus and you wont be able to read them. I mean, I've worked in commission sales and know that there are different selling styles but my lord! I was like "well, were you planning on telling me that somehow before I ordered it online?" It says nothing about this on the website! The guy literally sounded like he was in a room like the one from the movie "Boiler Room" where young commission driven stock monkeys are pushing junk stocks under extreme pressure. This stuff is a reality. So I dumped them and I called BPC who had a mysteriously similar low price (I mean when two "companies are within $20 of each other at 2Gs below retail, come on!) and got a similarly slimy New York scamster. I mean literally, it might have been the same guy in the same room or at least another guy, probably a friend of the other guy. I call and he answers "Hello?" and I say "I wanted to ask you about one of your TVs." "Which one?" and then I told him and he said "What about it?" and I said well is this the US version with the US menus and he says "yeah, just like you would get at Best Buy, so can I place your order?" Wow. Talk about a quick sale! He couldn't even spend 20 seconds answering questions to make a 3g sale. I agree with the other member that suspects that they are literally in the same office (or basement) together. I am going to find out how we can bring a suit against them or get them shut down. I will be working at the Texas Supreme Court next year and will be able to figure this out. The building is closer the Attorney General's office as well. I can't wait to call these guys and tell them that they are about to get shut down.

This is an unusual look for Jennifer, who usually sticks to slinky, more casual dresses in neutral tones, but I'm loving it. She has a really (gorgeous) girl-next-door look to her, but it actually translates well to her more dressed-up looks. I think she can totally carry off more avant-garde, fashion-y dresses like this one.

In this strange city the hotel is better than you would expect, the room was clean, breakfast ok, personnel was speaking English
Very strange bathroom without any wall to separate from the room, could be noisy if your room is close to the bar
The room was very comfy and nicely decorated. If you like karaoke, make sure to check out the bar.
Floors in the rooms were a little creaky and lots of stairs to climb.
Really nice menu in the restaurant and really good view from the balcony. Rooms are really clean and staff spoke good english. Air in the room was fresh to breath because the air condition.
Bamboo door in bathroom was weird, could be awkward for other people like for daughter and father.
Staff very friendly and young. Nicely decorated rooms. Good breakfast, nice restaurant. Good Wifi signal.
Close to market
Noisy, old and run down, restaurant marginal
Good furnishings, good outlook from rooms and restaurant
On a busy street in Upper Tana, steep narrow staircases
Nice location, good facilities, very delicious breakfast!
The price was good The staff excellent and helpful Good wi fi connection
to reach the room 3rd floor, very tiring to do so many stairs some resident were very noisy at the early hours round 3a.m
Indian, French, Italian and local food... All excellent!
the hotel itself ist perfect
the driver who brought me to the hotel and back was just dangerous
The restaurant, the lively bar, the good wifi signal everywhere, the efficiency of the staff, the location, my suite (spacious, big bathtub, awesome view)
breakfast (not many vegan options, not big variety of fruits, only papaya)
nice room and great staff
Even with the A/C at maximum the room was not getting cooler
Colonial architectural style. Small to medium-size hotel.
A. The different ways used by the hotel for screwing customers: 1. Hotel charged an additional 4% of the total amount announced in BOOKING.COM. 2. I ate some cookies displayed in my room. No price was shown. I thought it was free. They charged me an extra 10000 Ar. which is as expensive as a main dish in the hotel's restaurant. B. Noisy wooden floors, especially at night. C. In the bathroom there were neither soap, nor shampoo, but condoms.
I would not return.
Just about everything. Staff uninformed, no elevator, loud bar , no door on bathroom. Needs better management.
The view from the top floor rooms are great - but the downside is the hotels location.
The problem is not so much the hotel itself (though the noise from the wooden floors in he top floor rooms is impossible to sleep through) as its location. High on the hill it has great views down on over the central city, but at night there is nothing around in terms of other places to eat, and it is not a savoury neighbourhood to be wandering in after dark. The room was a good size, but rather overcrowded with unnecessary furniture. The bathroom separated by only a banboo screen from the bed was interesting.
Nice room
No door to toilets. Breakfast not so good. Rather noisy
Nice hotel. Good service in the reception!
Breakfast can be better! Restaurant can be much better! Stop playing loud music, We are there to sleep!!
Staff were so helpful when I was in a visa pickle and took me to town to sort it.
Wi if was temperamental, but wifi in the whole city is.
The hotel is well situated and away from the city buzz. I found the room small but cosy.
The traffic leading to the hotel may be quite heavy at times and the place noisy with car horning every now and then.
