Background: Silicone implants are being used increasingly worldwide, especially in breast augmentation procedures. The most common morbidity observed is capsular contracture, which occurs in 15 percent of cases. To overcome this problem, the authors have developed a novel nanocomposite based on polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane-poly(carbonate-urea)urethane (POSS-PCU) for use as tissue implants.
Methods: These polymers were implanted in six healthy sheep (n = 6) for 36 months and a siloxane served as the positive control. After explantation, these polymers were extracted, as was the surrounding capsule, if any. Attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis was performed to look for signs of surface degradation on the polymers and histopathologic and electron microscopic examinations were performed to study the interaction between the biomaterial and the host environment in greater detail.
Results: After implantation, the authors observed minimal inflammation of the nanocomposite within the sheep model as compared with the siloxane control. Contact angle measurements and fibrinogen enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay tests were then conducted on the POSS-PCU nanocomposite to determine the reason for this behavior. The increased fibrinogen adsorption on POSS-PCU, its amphilicity, and large contact-angle hysteresis indicated that POSS-PCU inhibits inflammation by adsorbing and inactivating fibrinogen on its surface. In complete contrast, the control siloxane in the same setting demonstrated very significant inflammation and degradation, resulting in capsular formation. Naturally, there was no evidence of degradation of the nanocomposite compared with the siloxane control.
Conclusions: POSS-PCU nanocomposites have enhanced interfacial biocompatibility and better biological stability as compared with conventional silicone biomaterials, thus making them safer as tissue implants.

Our work
Practical Action Eastern Africa Regional Office has been delivering technology as its niche in the region for over 25 years. Throughout the period, we have leveraged best practices learnt that yield high impact at scale into our programmes. We deliver our work through three Goal areas:
- Universal access to energy will increase access to modern energy services for cooking, lighting, communication and productive uses for poor households in Eastern Africa.
- Food security, Agriculture and Disaster Risk Reduction will scale up work on resilience to disasters, community based extension and maximising the impacts of devolved governance and funding.
- Water, sanitation and waste management services for urban dwellers will seek to increase access to basic services such as adequate water and sanitation facilities.
In addition to our Goals, we have three cross-cutting themes. These include: Gender and social Inclusion, Climate Change and Market Systems Development.
We also have two arms through which we scale up our operations and models from our work and that of others: Practical Action Consulting through which we will replicate knowledge generated from our programmes outside our operational areas to others; and
Practical Answers, a demand-driven free-of-charge service, provides customised information and knowledge products to individual enquirers through different media and formats.
Grace Mukasa is the Regional Director.

You want something like this. Her Butt hole is Pouchin OUT!!! Well I was home on leave during the nice months of April or May in Northern California it is still green and it is not burning yet. So a little back story we have lived in the same town our entire life small farming community in the Sacramento Valley 120 miles north of Sacramento. We had a family friend that lived aprox 15 miles out of town on his 6000 acre ranch. He didn't do much but rent most of it to a sheep farmer. We were allowed to come out and shoot and fish with a days notice. My brother and I decide to go and do a little shooting out at the ranch. We get things ready to go the night before so we can head out at day light. We have all the guns and ammo we need and hit the sack. Next morning rolls around and we are up and ready to go in a matter of no time. On a last minute dicession we say lets bring the dog. The Dog is Judy a black and white pit mix. Who our other dog the late Lucy (Yes Judy Garlin and Lucille Ball) found in a pile of tires at a Les Schwab store. Judy is along about 13 years old at this time. So we get loaded up call the dog and kiss mom and off we go. The ride is long boring with not much to look at other than grass and the occasional Valley oak. Well We have 3 rifles in the gun rack (Yes a true in the back window gun rack) 2 in the seat and two guys and a 35# dog in my brothers old 1972 Ford F-150. Well about half way out the dog starts walking around in circles on the middle of the front seat then gets on the floor board then back up and down for a few minutes. The it starts. After about 25 minutes in the truck Judy thinks it is time to what yes take a big crap. Well She tried to hold it back but it was coming weather we liked it or not. She hunches up and you guessed it her butt hole starts to pouch out. Now It is pointed towards me so I do what any red blooded American would do I push it towards my brother. That was a bad idea, he is trying to drive and crawl out the window while she is trying to poop . I am about to fall out of the truck laughing until it happens he shoves her back my way. Screaming HER BUTT HOLE IS POUCHIN OUT over and over in a very high pitched girlie type voice. What makes that so funny is he is 6'3" and we both have rather deep voices. He is laughing as am I the poor dog is freaking out, because all she really needs to do it relieve herself of last night dinner. Now this is all taking place in a matter of a few seconds we now both look up and see that my brother is headed right for a big concrete immovable bridge rail. Now imagine two guys and a dog all looking at each other and with a cartoon like look all freak out at the same time. He cranks the wheel the dog falls over on to me and I am screaming like a little girl watching Nightmare on Elm Street shaking my hands in the air like a guy on queer eye for the straight guy would if he seen a spider. The dogs butt hole is still pouching out. My brother is laughing crying, and trying to get the truck under control I am laughing and crying and trying to figure out a way to keep the dog from pooping all over me without me having to stick a finger or two up the chute to stop the on coming traffic, hoping and praying that we don't hit the bridge. A few fish tales later and some dust we get stopped I open the door and Judy bails out run a little over 3 feet and explodes with the biggest pile I had ever seen this dog let go of. We have to sit there for 15 minutes while we both stop laughing and calm down enough to get the truck moving and not look like a couple of drunks driving home from the bar. The rest of the day was rather uneventful. We did some shooting and did some fishing. Judy pounced on a Rattler and snatched it up right behind it's head and shock it so hard it died right on the spot. She really saved my brother from stepping on it. The bad thing was she wouldn't let go of the dead snake until we got home and mom said good dog. I miss Judy, who will be gone soon as she is now almost 20 years old.
Well...that was...um...yeah. Entertaining! lol Guys, I've gotten a couple of good submissions off this thread! I can't tell you how much I appreciate you taking the time to not only take this seriously, but put pieces together for me. It's a huge help. I'm still looking for more, though. At this point, I'll say that I'd like it as original as possible and while I'm open to considering...comedy shall we say...I'd like some serious hunting/shooting and even archery pieces. Talk about a hunt you've been on. Talk about that last new rifle you purchased and the process you went through to find a scope, get everything mounted and sighted in, and how you're shooting with it now. Talk about that big animal you put in the freezer the last time you were out, how it happened and a lesson you learned. Just some ideas. Thanks so much again! Josh
I hate to dredge up a "dead" thread but it looks like my funding has FINALLY come through to actually make a real go of this! Anyone of you who got in touch with me a couple months ago about this, get in touch with me again! Let's see if we can get some writing done! Thanks! Josh

This has been the worst pregnancy...good thing it's the last, LOL. This morning I am having pelvic pain again. So I will be taking it easy and maybe hanging out in bed. I think knowing that my body is starting to progress, even just what little it has is unnerving me and making me be more paranoid.

Dan Walters Daily: Wright, Calderon are legislative 'non-persons'
Even as they continue to collect their salaries, the Senate's refusal to acknowledge Sens. Rod Wright, D-Baldwin Hills, and Ron Calderon, D-Montebello, is rather Orwellian, Dan says.

American consumers rang out 2002 amid many worries. The Conference Board's consumer-confidence index fell to 80.3 in December from a revised 84.9 in November, defying forecasters' more optimistic estimates. American consumers' assessment of present conditions, as well as their expectations for the future, became gloomier. Weak spending during the Christmas shopping season, an eight-year high in the unemployment rate and continued jitters over a possible war with Iraq all contributed to the downturn in confidence.
American retail sales grew by 3.3% in volume terms in the year to November.
Stockmarkets around the world plunged in 2002. America's Dow Jones index suffered its third successive declining year in 2002, its first three-year losing streak since the period from 1939 through 1941. Germany's DAX index fell by 44% in 2002. Austria's stockmarket was the only rich-country bourse that saw rising prices in 2002.
Industrial production in the euro area grew by a sluggish 0.3% in the year to October. In France, despite poor economic growth, unemployment held steady at 9.0% in November for the sixth month running.
Canada's industrial production was flat in October, but rose by 5.2% compared with the previous year. Consumer-price inflation remained steady at 3.2% in November.
Consumer-price inflation in Germany ran at 1.1% in December, for the second month in a row.
Producer prices rose by 0.9% in France, and by 1.2% in Italy, in the year to November.
Italian workers' wages rose by an average 2.1% in the year to November.
Industrial production in Japan fell in November by 2.2%, far more than forecasters expected. In year-on-year terms, growth in industrial production slowed to 4.5% in the year to November from 5.3% in the year to October. Wage growth for Japanese workers slowed to 0.6% in the year to November.
Oil prices hit a two-year high of $33 a barrel, owing to a strike in Venezuela and fresh fears of war in Iraq.
The euro rose briefly to a three-year high against the dollar of $1.05.

how do you get wax off brass?
holleygarden Zone 8, East TexasJuly 26, 2009
For our anniversary, DH made us a nice dinner. We dined by candlelight. Very romantic.
Unfortunately, the wax from the candles dripped all over the brass candlesticks, and I don't know how to clean the wax off them. These candlesticks have felt on the bottom, so that may be important to know for some cleaning methods.
Can you tell me how I can get the wax off these brass candlesticks? It is a LOT of wax ALL over them! Thanks!

Driver there'll before time, very friendly and quick drop off at airport. Would definitely book this service again when in Paris next. Highly recommended.
Our driver was on time, early in the morning to pick us up. He took us exactly where we needed to be dropped off at the airport. He even came in with us to make sure we went to the right gate.
Excellent service , always on time , I'll definitively use it again . Highly recommended .
they pick us on time.the drivers were very nice.good service
The shuttle service excellent. We were picked up right on time and were at the airport with plenty of time to check it out and get a bite to eat. The driver was dressed and acted very professional.
Shuttle arrived early, driver was professional and courteous, and we arrived at the Orly Airport with plenty of time for some cafe au lait and macarons before our flight!
We were very pleased with our departure transfer to Orly Airport on Friday morning, July 5. Our driver was there promptly at 3:50 am and we were at Orly a little before 5:00 am. We also used Paris Shuttle for our arrival in Paris on Monday, July 1. The driver was also prompt. We would definitely consider using this arrival and departure transfer again. Thanks for your good service.
Reliable, prompt service. The traffic was absolutely horrible, but our driver handled it well.
Perfect, driver was right on time, no problems.
Was on time and did the task that was required.
The driver was on time and made sure we were dropped off at the proper terminal (Orly has a west and south). I recommend this shuttle.
On time pickup and got to the airport quick and safe. Can't ask for anything more.
My hotel was the first of three pick-up locations; the driver arrived on time, was courteous, and got us to the airport in good time. The rate was also more reasonable than that of other shared van transfers I booked during this trip (availability being the main factor in the decision of which service to use.)
The driver was very prompt and made exceptional effort to get us out of the city before some streets were closed due to a parade at the Etoile. We were glad he did because it could have been a disaster if we had gone later.
