Avalon Hyper Array Scalable Hashing System
Bitcoin mining machine industry may develop new products within 3~6 months .That is to say ,stop innovation means death .
The pursuit to innovation is the source to development .To Avalon team ,innovation is a belief .Only with innovation ,it can exist on bitcoin mining machine industry .
Avalon team develops the first Hyper Array Scalable Hashing System .On the system ,the concept of single mining machine is gone ,and array scale appears .For example ,the module of Avalon is 40nm ,and each is 295G .According to the area ,powered ,radiator on the mineral ,clients can choose the module from 1~40 to build up a array scalable Hashing unit .And they use a terminal ,a reticle and an IP address to control .
Today ,no technology or products are perfect absolutely .The first generation has its provlems .Each its module need take up on a USB interface .
The second generation develops ADP to solve the first problems .It uses many modules to use an USB interface commonly .Each ADP has four 8p power interfaces .And it can work with two interfaces .Along with them ,it has two interact 4 pin and 2 ID jumpers .Clients can set four kinds of address on ADP through the jumpers .And with the four chips linking line ,they will be connected .And one USB interface can be connected with 4 modules .So if an USB system with 10 interfaces ,it can be connected with 40 modules .
Avalon bitcoin mining machine 40 nm single module assessment .
Its desigh is to solve some hardware problems of the second generation .Meanwhile ,it adds to some new functions .The third generation only need an 12V input to work .Compared with the last generation ,it cancels ATX24P interface and reduces the volume .Whether any single power to supply power ,it also can be used .There are four 12V interfaces on ADP ,and it can work with two .Avalon3 has mounted the main controller on the inner modules .Its main chips is Spartan6-XC6LX16 FPGA,which can be programmed .Its the integrated design that gives birth to Avalon3.The most important part of mining machine is DC/DC power .The controller uses ADP3208D ,which is suit for the standard of Intelsat IMVP-6.Power module is designed by solid-state capacitance .The large electric current part of PCB is added cooling stannic fin .Also ,each module has 5 units ,and it totally mounts 50 chips .
Compared with some T class mining machines ,the advantage of Avalon is obvious .If you want to furnish the mineral ,you should hire some men to move the T class mining machines .But Avalon single module weighs 3.5kg ,a woman can move it easily .Moreover ,as common T class mining machine ,one should use 1000w power ,and the price is expensive .And the supply cant be guaranteed .But the biggest input power of Avalon is about 350w .The power is not only cheap ,but also easy to get .
Remaks: Due to language difference, sometimes people out of China cant know what happened in China quickly. so we are here to make effort to change little, we will translate 3-4 bitcoin news in China to English everyday to help people out of China know what happened and what people thinks about bitcoin in China, If somewhere translate not that good, pls PM us so that we can correct it.

Authentic African Black Soap
Cape Aloe Topical Healing Gel
Despite hours of direct exposure to the sun, the Maasai have relatively little to no wrinkles and super firm skin well into their advanced years. Massaging their skin with butterfat is not their only secret to beautiful glowing skin, and now their "other secret" is available to you. Emollient Yangu Oil, said to offer UV sun protection (does not replace use of sunscreen or avoidance of direct sun exposure), is rich in anti-oxidants and essential fatty acids.
Pure Yangu Oil is collected from the African wild by the Maasai themselves where it is taken to a mill to press out its precious oil. This sustainable oil not only provides a form of income to the world's most impoverished peoples, but it also provides a monetary benefit to preserve wild habitats which are being deforested at an alarming rate.
Contains only: 100% pure yangu oil
Your skin changes daily. Pollutants that it comes across, sun exposure level, your vitamin and mineral intake, the quality and amount of your water, and so on all affect and change your skin. Likewise, the skin oils that you use should change from time to time. What works for you one week might not work for you the next week. Plus, your skin benefits from the different nutrients that comes with changing up your oils. If one week your face feels a little oily, use a lighter oil and vice versa.
Daily usage:
Massage few drops into each of the five facial points (across face like a cross). Lightly massage under eye.
100% natural
No mineral oil or perfume
benefits local tribes and wildlife habitats which are both endangered of becoming permanantly lost

The Yangu oil I first tried as a sample and loved how my face looked in the morning! I had to have it. then my daughter mentioned an area on her face that was getting some sun damage spots, so I bought her one too. She loves it also and her skin issues are gone.

Wonderful Base Oil
I use this as the first thing I put on my face in the morning, to provide some UV protection and perk up my skin before I put on my makeup. It leaves my face remarkably "plumped" and smooth, and has a light, grass-like scent. Being one of the cheapest oils on the site, it's a great value!

Great for sensitive faces.
I received a sample of this with my order and I'm already in love. I currently have only used it on my face. The oil is great for my sensitive skin and it really moisturizes without making me look shiney or feel oily. I've also had no trouble with it breaking me out, which often happens with the use of other face creams I've bought that claim to be for sensitive skin.

This is my daytime moisturizer. It does not leave my skin looking shiny.

We plan to arrive in Cape Town in June 2010 (dodging the World Cup!), drive to Durban to dive the Sardine Run, drive to Kilimanjaro and climb it. Then we plan to drive up the east coast of Africa to Cairo and ship the vehicle to Greece by mid-fall. Second phase of driving to the 7 summits to begin spring of 2011 (to Russia). Who wants to join us for all or part??? Anyone have a connection to a sponsorship with Land Rover? Expect this adventure to last @ four years with breaks.

Lamu Island, Kenya
Far from the tourist overdrive of Kenya's southern coast, low-key Lamu is an idyllic island of swaying palm trees, gliding dhows, and donkeys plodding through a maze of narrow, winding streets. Settled by Swahili traders in the 14th century, the namesake town is one of East Africa's treasures, its alleys abuzz with barefoot children, women in swirling bui-bui robes, and clattering carts piled high with coconuts. Keep your eyes peeled for the ornate door carvings that are a Swahili trademark. On the island's southern shore, glorious Shella Beach embraces the warm waves of the Indian Ocean in a long ribbon of powdery sand. It's a favorite among the well-heeled expats buying up the pleasure palaces nearby. Neighboring islands Manda and Kiwayu are home to some of Kenya's most exclusive hideaways; a speedboat can zip you to the archipelagos farthest reaches in under an hour, though for our money, a long, lazy dhow ride suits Lamus laid-back rhythms to a tee. After hours, expats gather for sunset drinks at the breezy waterfront Peponi or for seafood at the rooftop restaurant of the Baitil Aman Guest House.

Mount Kenya
With all the fanfare surrounding Kilimanjaro, Mount Kenya might be the planet's least-appreciated 17,000-foot peak. But Africa's second-highest summit rises majestically over central Kenya, challenging visitors to scale its snowy heights. Located just ten miles from the equator, the mountain's glacial crown gleams with icy cap for much of the year. The trek to Point Lenana, the highest peak accessible to casual hikers, is a tough test of endurance; to reach the two peaks above it, you'll need technical climbing skills. The Naro Moru Route is the most popular choice for the ascent, since it makes a beeline for the summit and descends again in just four days. The Sirimon and Chogoria routes offer more impressive scenery and gentler ascents; allow at least five days for each. Two of the most respected outfitters for organizing treks, the Bantu Mountain Lodge and the Naro Moru River Lodge, are based in the scruffy town of Naro Moru, from which most treks begin. All-inclusive packages that cover fees and rentals are the most practical option if you'd like to minimize the planning hassle.
Whatever you decide, it's worth giving yourself an extra day or two to enjoy the terrain. The mountain's forested slopes are rich in wildlife, and you might spot a few Sykes monkeys or a rare bongo (an elusive antelope species) prowling through the woods. After a few frosty days on the mountain, cozy up at the stately Mt. Kenya Safari Club nearby, which was recently purchased by the Fairmont group. Be sure to add your name to the venerable guest book aside those of Winston Churchill and L.B.J.

Mustard Dill Sauce with Roasted Sweet Potatoes
Here's a quick-to-fix recipe that will satisfy even my hungriest snack attack.
Sweet potatoes are extremely healthy so I'm always looking for different ways to include them in my diet. I must admit that I grew up thinking sweet potatoes were meant to be eaten with lots of butter and marshmallows. Now, I am slowly developing different ways to enjoy them that don't necessarily require large amounts of sugar.
This easy gluten-free snack or appetizer also works well as a side dish for a meal, especially a sandwich or a dinner salad. The sweet flavor of the sweet potatoes contrasts nicely with the spicy tang of mustard and dill in the creamy sauce.
One serving of these nutrition-packed sweets gives me 4 grams of dietary fiber according to the USDA and also provides me with over 400% of my daily Vitamin A and more than a third of the Vitamin C that I need. Those are good reasons to include them more often in my diet. I hope you'll enjoy trying some, too.
Here's a quick-to-fix recipe that will satisfy even my hungriest snack attack. This easy gluten-free snack or appetizer can also easily serve as a side dish for...
- 3 Tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 Tablespoons Prepared Mustard
- 1 Teaspoon Dill Weed
- 1/8 Teaspoon Ground Pepper
- 3/4 Pound Sweet Potatoes, scrubbed and trimmed, peeled or unpeeled, cut like for French fries
- 1 Teaspoon Oil, or Oil Spray
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Combine ingredients and stir well.
Chill until time to serve.
Heat oven to 425 degrees F.
Oil a baking sheet (you can line it with foil first).
Spread the sweet potato cuts on the baking sheet so pieces don't touch.
Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes.
Turn and/or stir.
Sprinkle with salt and ground black pepper.
Bake an additional 5 to 10 minutes or until vegetables are tender and crust begins to brown.
This gluten-free recipe is designed for those with gluten intolerance, gluten sensitivity, or celiac (coeliac) disease, but I've found that people who have no food allergies like it, too. It's one of my gluten-free recipes that is wheat-free, barley-free and rye-free, as well as dairy-free and nut-free.
If You Are Gluten-Intolerant or Have A Loved One Who Is, Then Please, Read This:
Are you tired of struggling to discover how to successfully live a gluten-free life? It took years for me to figure it out on my own.
My latest book, "Eating & Living A Gluten-Free Diet… The Official Guide" contains almost everything I've learned about eating and living gluten-free in the past 13 plus years.
Learning how to live gluten-free is hard to do. Especially, if you have significant symptoms like I do. I have digestive symptoms and, trust me when I say this, it can get really bad if I accidentally eat or drink something with gluten in it.
Yes it's true, I wrote this book to make money…
… But, I also wrote it to help others, like you or your loved one, who are gluten intolerant. I remember how difficult it was figuring out how to avoid gluten-based reactions in all of the situations in my life.
I paid for what I know with pain, illness and misery. And, I want to share what I know with you so you can hopefully avoid living through what I had to endure… I rarely have a gluten reaction any more because I've learned how to avoid them and I believe that you can too!
Check out my latest book by clicking the book cover below. I believe that you will be very glad that you did !

Scott Wesley participates in an organization that provides meaningful help to people in extremely difficult circumstances, and it's great to hear about the work they are doing. Organizations like the Work/Faith Connection can make a huge difference in people's lives.
But what about those of us who may not work for non-profit, missional organizations? Not everyone is called to do the kind of work that Scott does, but aren't we called to the same purpose? How do we navigate in an environment that isn't explicitly geared towards service?
Want to hear more? You can find this and dozens of other videos over at the High Calling YouTube Channel.
TRANSCRIPT: The Work/Faith Connection is an organization that our primary focus is giving people the opportunity to work---people with barriers to employment, such as a criminal background, people that have been living in homeless situations, or people that are just transitioning out of drug recovery. We connect with people at a very challenging point in their lives and then try to use that as an opportunity to encourage them in their faith. So, the fact that someone might not have a job and they're a little destitute and they're a little bit depressed---helping them through that transition, helping them to get a job, to present themselves as a viable candidate for employment, and then at the same time trying to help them focus their eyes on God, and trying to give them some Scriptural basis for why they should go to work and why they should be encouraged and why that they should have a positive attitude, all of that together helps them in their walk of faith.
TheHighCalling.org seeks to create opportunities for Christian leaders to encounter God through new media tools for the transformation of daily life, work, and our world. Christian leaders are in all aspects and activities of daily life—including home, community, leisure, as well as occupation.

I really, really want a Winchester Model 70 for deer hunting. I currently use a Marlin Model 336 30-30 that I have had since I was 13 years old. I took my first deer with it when I was 13 in fact. It has served me very well but I find myself being drawn to the model 70 for some unknown reason. (I really don't care what the reason is in fact )
So, I am asking any and all Model 70 lovers out there in DC land to fill me in on what to look for when buying a used model 70. I really love the look and feel of the Monte Carlo stock. Again, just what I am partial to.
I will admit it, I have never owned a bolt action rifle so I am a bit of a noob when it comes to them. So any info would be a great help.
Teach me oh great bolt gun Professors!

Pariah #1
- Posted by Johanna on July 31, 2011 at 10:50 am
- Category: Indy Comic Reviews
There are several things to know about this title. First, it's published by Sea Lion Books, which is yet another incarnation of some group of Dabel Brothers. In comics, they're known for making big plans, often involving licensed comics from big-name authors, and then bailing before the series conclude, often owing creators money. Not necessarily the kind of company I want to support, and anyone who signs on to one of their comic series should know they may never see the conclusion.
Second, Pariah is one of those "we really want it to be a movie" Hollywood-connected productions. There are already video clips available to flesh out the background. It's being promoted as "from the mind of Oscar-winning film producer Aron Warner" to give it that associated glamour. (He worked on the Shrek movies, the first of which won that Academy Award.) But really, it's created by two other people.
Third, they don't have the lingo down. This isn't a "twelve-book graphic novel series", it's a 12-issue miniseries that they likely intend to collect as a graphic novel. 24 pages does not a "graphic novel" make, but that's the buzzword to use these days.
Last, I'm not sure when this first issue is coming out — it was due in July, and well, that month is now passed. The book's website, while pretty, doesn't have an announcement that I could find. There is a preview there, though.
Yet, all that said, this first issue is pretty good, and I want to read more. It hits several classic buttons for fans — the persecuted kid, smarter than everyone around him, misunderstood by parents and bullied at school — and ramps them up to the Nth degree. It's a modern-day X-Men, a group of special people who are hated and feared just for the talents they were born with.
In the near future, Brent Marks is a super-intelligent teen, one of the "vitros". The public is already suspicious of these kids, and then a deadly lab explosion is blamed on them. The vitros are labeled dangerous and rounded up by the government (although we only see Brent's story here). It reminded me a bit of Nancy Kress's Beggars in Spain, which is also about genetically engineered kids whose presence freaks out the dumber normals.
Art is by Brett Weldele, best known for The Surrogates (which also became a movie) and currently Oni's Spontaneous. I actually like it better here. While it's still nicely moody, the additional color palette, more varied than I've seen on his work previously, made it more readable for me. It counterpoints the grim conspiracy and survival efforts coming. Weldele's expressions are as varied as ever, showing us how difficult life is for Brent, who doesn't belong anywhere.
Writer Philip Gelatt has also worked for Oni, on the upcoming Petrograd. There's a lot of narration in this issue, whether from TV talking heads or internal monologue by Brent, in order to set up the premise. That makes the book feels dense and worthwhile, although it puts the art in second place position to the text.
Sea Lion has also released Dark Swan, which has shipped two issues so far. That one is much less interesting, another Anita Blake-style series about a busty demon fighter who has sex with those she battles and fights in the nude. (To be fair, there is also a nude, well-built guy in those scenes.)

Neliel Tu Oderschvank was the former 3rd Espada. After she was ambushed and attacked, her Hollow Mask was damaged and she was changed into a childish Hollow with no memories.
Neliel Tu Oderschvank (Nel Tu) is the former 3rd Espada under Sosuke Aizen. She held this position for many years and was constantly challenged for her role by Nnoitra Gilga to prove that men were more powerful than women. The Espada were given the task of finding the "Vasto Lorde" and she was disgusted by Nnoitra wanton slaughter of other colonies of Hollows in their search. She would tell him to remember that they were once Arrancar as well before they were graced with such evolution. Still, she saved him from being killed by another Hollow, but not out of any fondness. Only to keep the Espada from losing a member. When Nnoitra asked why she was always following him if she hated him so much, she answered that it was because he was weaker than her.
Nnoitra would continue to challenge her, but she refused to draw her blade against the likes of him. He would not draw her into him pointless and demented world. She didn't understand his blood lust and violent philosophy since it was all based around a temporary high. He agreed, but it was the only thing that filled his void. Over and over he tried to kill Neliel but she defeated him with very little effort. She told him that they were all once humans that were changed to beasts, but granted reason and consciousness as Arrancar. Rational people need a reason to battle and she told him that he had none. Nnoitra shouted back that his reason to fighter was because he hated her and that a woman could surpass a man in battle. She left him, refusing to see him as a warrior.
Some time later, Neliel was ambushed by Nnoitra who had teamed up with Szayel Aporro Grantz in a sneak attack. They had taken her Fracción members, Pesche Guatiche and Bilstin Dondochakka, and forcibly removed their Hollow masks. Nnoitra took his opening and attacked her from behind. He damaged her own Hollow mask and knocked her unconscious. He took her prone body by the neck and tossed her off the ledges of the Las Noches, along with her Fracción. He planned to surpass her strength by the time she could return and finally defeat her in a battle. The wound to her mask had caused her reiatsu had leaked from her body and changed into a child.
Dondochakka and Pesche woke to find their leader had changed into a child and had no memory of her life before. To protect her, they took her into hiding deep in the deserts of Hueco Mundo and pretended to be her older brothers. They knew how much she hated fighting and would be spared from that life the way she is now. They lived like this for some time before they ran into Ichigo Kurosaki who had invaded Hueco Mundo looking for his friend Orihime Inoue.
Neliel is a supporting character from the anime/manga series BLEACH, created by Tite Kubo. It began serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump in August 2001. She first appeared to be a simple minded child Arrancar with little power, but is later revealed to be a member of the Espada.
She first appeared in her child form in BLEACH Volume 28, CH. 245 "The Way Without Enemies", and her first anime appearance was in BLEACH - Episode 145 "The Espada Gather! Aizen's Royal Assembly". Nel's adult form is later revealed in BLEACH Volume 33 CH. 290 "The Broken Mask", and the adult form's first anime appearance was in BLEACH - Episode 192 "Nel's Secret, A Busty Beauty Joins the Battle!?". Her character in the Japanese series is voiced by Tomoko Kaneda, and the U.S. dub produced by VIZ Media is done by Colleen O'Shaughnessey. Despite the drastic change in forms, she keeps the same voice actress.
After Neliel's adult form was revealed in Volume 33, she was illustrated on the cover of BLEACH Volume 34. Neliel's full name is more commonly shortened to "Nel Tu". For the English dub of BLEACH, Nelliel's child form doesn't speak with a lisp. Though, she does occasionally call Ichigo "Itsygo".
" There was a time when we ceased to be Human and became beasts. And then in becoming Arrancar, we regained our capacity for reason. One who possesses reason should require a reason to fight. "
Neliel Tu Oderschvank - BLEACH Vol. 33 Ch. 294
Nel Tu's first appearance was that of a small child Hollow. Even her Hollow mask was a damaged, cartoonish skull. She has large incisors and a horizontal crimson-line that runs across her face, under her eyes. She also has a large scar between her eyes. Unlike any other Hollow that has been introduced in the story, her personality was very innocent. She was afraid of Ichigo, believing that Shinigami were evil. She has a childish style of speech and talks with a lisp. Eventually, she begins to bond with Ichigo after she forces him to play several games of tag and rides on his back as he heads for the Hueco Mundo castle of Las Noches.
Birthday: 24 April
Hair: Blue-green
Eyes: Hazel
Height: 176cm (5'9") (adult form)
Weight: 63kg (139lbs.) (adult form)
It was during Ichigo's fight with Nnoitra that Nel's true adult form is finally revealed. She has a voluptuous body, her hair grows longer, and her Hollow masks also changes to a more graphic form with curved-horns. Nel watches as Ichigo protects her from Nnoitra. When Nnoitra is about to finish Ichigo off, her emotions for Ichigo cause her to transform back into her adult form and Ichigo notices the number 3 mark on her back. She tells him that she wants to protect him. Some of her memories are returned, and in a fight she speaks very little. Though grown, she retained much of her childish affection to Ichigo. She suddenly changed back to her child form during the battle just as she spared Nnoitra.
In the flashback of her life before being changed into a child, Nel was revealed to be a very calm and gallant warrior. She reads books in her spare time, and refuses to fight opponents she belies are weaker or injured to the point they can not longer fight. This is a trait she shares with Kenpachi Zaraki. Nel was a warrior that had a diligent ethic toward any leader she sees as worthy, and her compassion and near pacifistic views are among some of her traits that separates her from any of the Arrancar that Ichigo has met before.
Nel Tu was running along Hueco Mundo with Dondochakka and Pesche playing chase, when her friends were attacked by three people she originally mistook for odd looking Hollows. They were Ichigo Kurosaki, Uryuu Ishida, and Sado Yasutora, and had come to save their friend Orihime Inoue. They carried the three humans to Las Noches and only later realized they were humans, one with Soul Reaper powers. She was torn about telling them how to beat the sand guardian, Runuganga, that was threatening them all, but it was defeated by two more Soul Reapers, Rukia Kuchiki and Renji Abarai. Ichigo tried to get Nel and the others to stay behind so they wouldn't get hurt, but she guilt tripped him into taking them along. Deeper in they all had to separate, but she still followed Ichigo. Only later did she realize that Dondochakka and Pesche didn't follow. Nel watched as Ichigo fought the demoted Espada, Dordonii Alessandro Del Socacchio. She stayed out of the way mostly until she saved Ichigo from a powerful Cero attack, she absorbed it, and blast it back with more power. Outraged by Dordonii's relentless attacks at Nel to goad him, Ichigo defeats him by using Hollowfication. She uses her healing saliva to heal Dordonii on Ichigo's request.
Further into Las Noches, Nel watches Ichigo battle Ulquiorra Cifer, and again he risks his own life to defend her. Ichigo is defeated when Ulquiorra pierces him through his chest. As Nel cried over Ichigo's dead body, the Espada Grimmjow arrived with Orihime to heal Ichigo. Using her powers, she was able to close the wound and his life returned. As Ichigo and Grimmjow fought, Nel scolded Orihime for acting afraid of Ichigo's Hollowfied form and not cheering for him. This in spite of her saying how gentle he is and was trying to protect them. Once Ichigo won, he carried them both down from the pillars and to the ground. This time Nel scolded Ichigo for hiving the wrong response to Orihime thinking she's heavy. Almost immediately, they were attacked by Nnoitra Jiruga, the one who put her in this child state, and his Fraccion, Tesla Lindocruz.
Nnoitra revealed Nel's identity as a former Espada, but she denied it since she had no memories of her past. Still Ichigo defended her from attack. Nnoitra proudly admits to being the one who stole her power, Ichigo tried to slash him across his chest, but the blade did no damage. Seeing Ichigo in impeding danger causes Nel to transform back to her original state just in time to save him. He sees the 3 mark on her back, and she tells him it will be over quickly. Her Sonído speed is too great for Nnoitra to keep up with, and he forgets about Nelliel's ability when he retaliates with a Cero. She sucks in the attack and just fires back her Cero Doble attack.
Nelliel refuses to fall for Nnoitra's taunts, and starts to release her Zanpakuto. He's too late to stop her and blown away by the release of the Spiritual Pressure. She throws her spear at him with her Lanzador Verde attack that hits and blows him away. Just as she approaches him to win the fight, she suddenly reverts back to her child form. After kicking her around and laughing, she forces Nel to watch as Tesra brutalizes Ichigo. They were then saved by the appearance of the Soul Reaper Kenpachi Zaraki. As Kenpachi and kills Nnoitra, Orihime uses her powers to heal Nel. Coyote Stark then arrived to abduct Orihime again, and Ichigo left after her.
Several months after Aizen was defeated by Ichigo. Nel, still in her child form, rushed to the Human World to find Ichigo because Hueco Mundo had been overrun by a powerful unknown force.
As a former high ranking member of the Espada, Nel has an immense Spiritual Pressure (reaitsu) and strength. With a single hand she can stop and opponents Cero attack with ease. Some of her strengths do vary depending on which form she is currently in. Her adult form being the obviously stronger one. Still, some of her adult abilities do remain in the child form and it also has a few unique ones, as well. As with most character in the BLEACH series, Nel also possesses extraordinary skill with her own zanpakuto.
Neliel's zanpakuto is named Gamuza (羚騎士/ガミューサ, gamyuusa). It has a green sheath and the tsuba is in the form of two crescent moons. The blade is in the shape of a basic katana. Similar to the Shinigami's Bankai, the Espada and other Arrancar have what is called a Resurrección (帰刃 (レスレクシオン). They are released by a verbal command of the Arrancar. Neliel's command is Declare (謳え, utae) The extent of Gamuza's abilities have yet to be revealed. She has not used the Gamuza in an extended battle outside of releasing it to fight with Nnoitra. The released form of a Arrancar's zanpakuto reveals partially what their original Hollow form was before they were transformed into an Arrancar. Neliel's release transforms her into a centaur, and she has shoulder armor.
Neliel's release command is "Declare... Gamuza". Gamuza means "Chamois" in Spanish. The kanji means "Antelope Knight". The released form of Gamuza transforms into a long metal lance. With the release of her zanpakuto comes increases in all her natural abilities of Reiyoku, strength, and speed.
Resurrección Attacks
In the original anime that aired in Japan of Tite Kubo's BLEACH series, alterations were added to Neliel's design. Her clothes, in her adult form, were slightly altered from the original manga version. Her top was extended to fully cover her breasts, and the size of her breasts were slightly reduced. The manga version reveals the lower portion of her breasts. A similar alteration was made in the same episode. When her 3rd rank Espada mark was revealed on her back, the manga version clearly showed her breast from the back. This was also removed in the anime scene.
In the anime, Nel's Gamuza zanpakuto is colored as having a white-crescent moon guard, but on the cover of Volume 34 it's painted as a dark brown.
Nel has her own character album that is part of the third season of the BLEACH Beat Collection published by Sony Music. In these collections, the voice actors of the character performs songs and skits. Songs that were included on the Session 5 edition that were performed by Tomoko Kaneda(Nel Tu) include "Kokoro Oasis" and "Every Fight!".
Being a relatively new character to the BLEACH series, Nel has not appeared in as many games as some of her fellow cast of characters. Her first game appearance was in the Sony PSP game BLEACH: Heat of the Soul 4(2007) in her child form only. Her adult form later debuted in BLEACH: Heat of the Soul 5(2008) on the PSP, and on BLEACH: Versus Crusade(2008) on the Nintendo Wii. Nel appears in both her child and adult forms. In BLEACH: Heat of the Soul 6(2009), all three of her forms appeared in game, this included her Ressurection form.

As a refresher: the device offers a 2.5-inch display, full QWERTY keyboard, and the tactile trackball that first appeared on the BlackBerry Pearl. Inside you'll find the usual BlackBerry Internet and Enterprise goodies, voice recognition, an expandable memory slot, a multimedia player, EDGE compatibility and quad-band (GSM 850/900/1800/1900) world phone support. There's no support for push-to-talk networks but that's not an issue since T-Mobile doesn't offer the feature anyway. You can get the 8800 for $249 with service.

Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Thursday held discussions with Delhi Metro Rail Corporation managing director E. Sreedharan on the proposed metro rail system for the Pink City. This was their second meeting after Mr. Gehlot invited him to Jaipur a few months ago to assess the city's potential for construction of a metro rail network.
Things appeared to be progressing well as the two decided to get the detailed project report on the Jaipur Metro ready by December. Informed sources said the proposed metro would be of 30 km length with 10 km underground. The rail is likely to go underground in the crowded localities of the city including Mirza Ismail Road and the walled city areas. The total cost of the project is estimated at Rs.7,500 crore.
The first phase of the project will have the rail covering a portion of the walled city, the Sindhi Camp, the city's main bus terminal, the railway station, going up to the housing colony, Mansarovar. "The project would catch momentum once the Centre approves our proposal," said sources in the Chief Minister's Office.
The State authorities are hopeful of starting work on the project at the beginning of 2010.
The State Government is also to decide on the finances for the project as well as the nature of the company which would undertake the construction of the metro and its running.
As for the finances, the Centre and the State would put in 20 per cent each of the total investment while the remaining 60 per cent would have to come from various financial agencies such as the World Bank, ADM and Japanese Bank. Mr. Sreedharan had a round of the city in the morning along with officials of the Jaipur Development Authority.

Pretty in the City: The Sweetest Scrub
Aromessence products are all homemade by the two Miami Beach beauty pros, but there's none of the tell-tale texture of a homemade product. Their body butter leaves your skin smooth as silk. Their floral mister is ideal for calming your spirit and toning your skin post-cleansing. And their sugar body scrub is to die for. Seriously. As a beauty blogger, I'm fortunate enough to try quite a few products on the market, and this locally-made sugar scrub ranks among the stuff you'd find on the shelves at Bath and Body Works any day of the week. It's thick without being too grainy, pleasantly scented without being pungent, and emollient without being greasy or slippery. It is perfection in an 8 oz tub.
"We're proud of the fact that we use only pure essential oils. Our products are all natural, and the sugar scrub is made from organic sugar. It appeals to anyone attuned to a more green lifestyle. We want our products to stimulate the senses and give a sense of serenity," says O'Neill.
That's exactly what my Aromessence experience proved to be. These products, handmade by two Miami Beach residents, are made with love and expertise. You can buy them online at AromessenceBody.com, and there's free shipping on purchases over $75.
