Get AccessAbstract
This study demonstrates the feasibility of using a miniature robot to perform complex, single-incision, minimal access surgery. Instrument positioning and lack of triangulation complicate single-incision laparoscopic surgery, and open surgical procedures are highly invasive. Using minimally invasive techniques with miniature robotic platforms potentially offers significant clinical benefits. A miniature robot platform has been designed to perform advanced laparoscopic surgery with speed, dexterity, and tissue-handling capabilities comparable to standard laparoscopic instruments working through trocars. The robotic platform includes a dexterous in vivo robot and a remote surgeon interface console. For this study, a standard laparoscope was mounted to the robot to provide vision and lighting capabilities. In addition, multiple robots could be inserted through a single incision rather than the traditional use of four or five different ports. These additional robots could provide capabilities such as tissue retraction and supplementary visualization or lighting. The efficacy of this robot has been demonstrated in a nonsurvival cholecystectomy in a porcine model. The procedure was performed through a single large transabdominal incision, with supplementary retraction being provided by standard laparoscopic tools. This study demonstrates the feasibility of using a dexterous robot platform for performing single-incision, advanced laparoscopic surgery.

Someone who loves to learn (I am completing a second doctorate; I received the last one in 1980!) and to travel (I have lived in 10 countries). I also love spending time with family and friends around the dinner table.
Madeleine has completed online and offline ID verification.
We totally enjoyed Madeleine! She was a perfect guest. She interacted with us during weekend mornings, did her own things mostly during the week, communicated often, and did most of it with a warm smile. She is a gem and we would welcome her company anytime.
Madeleine is a regular guest. All that I can say is that if there were more people in the world like Madeleine, this world would be a perfect place. Rest assured your home will be well loved during her visit.
Madeleine is a true gem! She is a repeat guest that is welcome to stay at any time, any day and at the drop off a hat! You truly could not ask for a better guest.
Madeleine is absolutely the best! When you open your home to someone without knowing their habits, you cannot help but wonder if something will get damaged or ruined. With Madeleine, you can rest perfectly at ease! Not only does she have a very pleasant and optimistic personality, she treads extremely lightly! You will not even know that anyone has been in your home...except for, maybe, traces of angel dust! She is a gem!
Madeleine has been a wonderful renter and is welcome to return any time.

It's nice to know that Brits mangle foreign words as well as Americans do. That Nicaragua pronuncation accounts for why the Brits who advertise the Jaguar car say "Jag-you-ahr" instead of "Jag-wahr". I usually hear it as "nicker-ahg-wuh", which could sound kind of funny to Brits who think of "knicker" as underwear. I think actual Nicaraguans pronounce it "nee-carr-AH-wah". I would say "tords" is more hickish in America. In the midwest I often hear it (and say it myself) as "t'wards". It's funny the Brits take such great care to enunciate "too-wards", while slurring words like "forecastle" into "foke-suhl" or "Worcester" into "Wooster".

Baltiyul in Tibetan Script[edit]
Please could you write Baltiyul (Balti language for Baltistan) in the Tibetan script please? So far, it is only written on the page in Arabic script, despite widespread use of the Tibetan script for this language. Thanks in advance! --AnonyLog (talk) 19:54, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
Talk Pages[edit]
Just to let you know, talk pages are for discussion of the article, not discussion of the subject. That's why I removed your comment at Talk:Lighthouse (Lost) about Jack. I also placed a talk page header on that page which helps explain. Take care! Dayewalker (talk) 04:27, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
Tibetan key[edit]
Hi Jakob,
WP:IPA for Tibetan was based on our ST article, and it could really use some help, in both the C's and V's. It lists significant allophones, not phonemes. ("Significant" from the POV of a native speaker of English, that is.) — kwami (talk) 18:06, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks.
- Tibetan has a pharyngeal stop? That's news to me.
- Are all of the consonants we list found, or are some just alternate conventions for transcription?
- Vowel length? — kwami (talk) 05:41, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
Proposed Tibetan naming conventions[edit]
A while back, I posted a new proposal for Tibetan naming conventions, i.e. conventions that can be used to determine the most appropriate titles for articles related to the Tibetan region. This came out of discussions about article titles on Talk:Qamdo and Talk:Lhoka (Shannan) Prefecture. I hope that discussions on the proposal's talk page will lead to consensus in favour of making these conventions official, but so far only a few editors have left comments. If you would be interested in taking a look at the proposed naming conventions and giving your opinion, I would definitely appreciate it. Thanks—Nat Krause(Talk!·What have I done?) 20:52, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

"Don't call me Sir, I work for a living" "I'm an A**hole"
I think this is why people carry unchambered weapons. Its cool to carry a gun but a loaded gun is dangerous. They have reached the age where they can legally purchase one and its a right of passage into adult hood but in their day to day lives, 99% of the time they will not be placed in a life or death situation. An unloaded gun makes you a victim and adds another firearm to the criminal network. I can only think that most people who carry unloaded do so because they lack the proper training, lack confidence in how to safely carry a fire arm, or are scared of it more than they respect. I think concealed carrying an unloaded weapon is extra crazy because you have to draw a weapon that the bad guy doesn't know you have and then chamber it so its ready for action. This is like pulling a knife out with the sheath still on it. Carring an empty revolver but keeping the bullets in your pockets.
My first comment on this thread: if I have time to rack the slide, I potentially have time to assess the situation and hopefully find a way to back out without pulling my gun. Unfortunately, life doesn't always give you enough time. If I'm pumping gas, minding my own business, and some meth-mouth comes up with a knife or a gun, the last thing I want to be concerned with is chambering a round. My gun is carried for those last-resort, out-of-the-blue situations where it's literally life or death (mine), and if I draw, I want to draw and if necessary pull the trigger and have it go BANG! If I want to use it as a club, it'll be after the slide locks back.
"Well, we're all victims of our own gene pool. Someone must have peed in yours." - Walter Bishop, from Fringe. "Then tell me this: Why would you want to hang around people that get uncomfortable, or even scared, about that kind of thing?" "Maybe to feel normal," I said. He laughed. "Normal's not all it's cracked up to be." "You think?" "Hell, I know." - from Spirits In The Wires, by Charles de Lint.
Never waste time deciding between two guns....buy both of them.

New to Android and love my new Droid 3. I have looked around for Apps and am either dumb, or blind, or there really isn't one that will meet my needs. Is there an App that will combine my Hotmail, gmail, and exchange emails into a single in-box and provide notifications when I get new email? K-9 looks the closest but it doesn't seem to like the hotmail? Is this a difficult "programming" thing in Android? Thank you! I'm very happy to see the robust community already building around this phone. Thank you!
without MS supporting android (write the opposite, actually), it'll be hard finding one. there are a few third party standalone hotmail apps, it's possible over of them is designed to work with the system sync, which would let you read your hotmail (and the rest) in blur's messaging app
have you tried the stock email or messaging apps? You can enter an email address and password and I'm guessing it would sync. I only have gmail, so I can't tell you. However, the messaging app pulls texts and PMs from facebook into one screen. the "Universal Inbox"
No chance with hotmail unless you pull the messages from it using POP. hotmail uses their own proprietary interface (deltasync) and not IMAP. Stupid move, but then it's a free service from which they get advertising dollars. When you connect via a mail client you skip the ads. So it's no surprise for them to do nothing to help that. So pull your hotmail messages via POP into another account that has IMAP and go from there.
Thank you! Thank you for your responses. They make sense. Universal inbox offers the closest experience to what I'm looking for (was used to on my previous phone/OS).
The stock Android email app on my Droid^1 was great for all the emails i use, listing my emails separately or showing all my new emails in a combined list when i get a new email notification from multiple emails, but this revised Blur Email is a piece of garbage. There are so many things on this new BLUR that while all it looks snappy & pretty, once it comes down to using them, u start to realize how it''s all taken a step back in productivity & efficiency.
