... not. Ohh no. If we had to go back we would miss our train and the next one wasn't for a few more hours. The man was quick to notice this was not ideal for us and happily gave us clear instructions on how to fix our mistake. Conveniently the wrong train went the right way and we could stay on for about 10 stops before we got off and waited for the express train to Hikkaduwa, which of course was delayed by about half an hour!

Third brake light on with parking lights
What could cause the third (upper) brake light in the rear to come on whenever I turn on the parking lights in my 95 Corolla?
I don't know anything about your car specifically. Generally speaking, if your car uses dual filament bulbs, ie one bulb serves as brake and tail light in the rear, I'd start looking closely at those. Often times the end of one filament will burn or break off in one of these bulbs, allowing it to contact the other filament. That creates an alternate path for electricity to flow, perhaps back feeding the lights you're talking about. Even a bad connection at the socket bulb plugs into can sometimes cause strange things to happen. Other things to check would be the grounds related to your lighting, especially those that might be in the trunk area. Also check the fuses. Sometimes an open fuse causes grounding or back feeding through seemingly unrelated circuits.
That's all I've got. Good luck.
The high mount lamp shares a ground with the lamps on the right rear lens. The most likely cause of it coming on with the parking lamps is a back feed is occuring because of the ground in the center, rear of the trunk failing/corroding.
Pull the high mount bulb while the parking lamps are on and you should see the affected circuits react to the loss of the ground that they are finding through that bulb.
Thanks for your responses Gary & John. I will try to do what you have said. I should have also mentioned that the parking lights (and of course the third(upper) brake lights) come on whenever I press on the brakes, and I hope that this confirms to you that you were right on in your guesses.
Thanks again.

Holes in Clothing
There have been numerous postings about holes in clothing that has been washed in a front loader. Here is my opinion: Perhaps the holes are being caused by the clothes being pulled through the holes in the washer tub when it goes into a high spin. True, the clothes do not go all the way through the holes in the tub but maybe just enough to cause a hole in the clothing as the tub is spinning fast and pulling the water out of the tub. Just my thought on the subject.
It could be that they are spinning the clothes too fast as you suggested. Though most seem to be complaining of holes in just one specific area. Usually around the middle section where they get wear and tear. If they had holes randomly throughout the garment then I would definitely suspect the washer. I had an old used washer that had an enamel tub. It had chipped and was pulling clothes. The pulls were very random and was the reason it got replaced.

We're aware the headline says "dummies", but it's essential you know we don't mean it. There are just some topics some of us are content enough to go through life knowing nothing about and idly pretending we do and it has no bearing on whether or not we are, in fact, dummies. Like archipelagoes. We have no idea what an archipelago is. We don't even know if we're pronouncing it correctly. And that's fine. We're busy. We have to prioritize our brain space.
For many people, DDoS attacks have fallen into the same category that archipelagoes have for us. Something you hear about once in a while that sort of makes you think you should look into it but never quite do. Here's the thing, though. If we were told archipelagoes do the kind of damage DDoS attacks do – namely, striking 45% of organizations and costing those organizations an average of $40,000 per hour – we'd get to reading up on archipelagoes posthaste.
And that's why we give you this DDoS cheat sheet. What you need to know about what DDoS attacks are, how they strike, what kind of damage they do, and how to prevent them.
What a DDoS attack actually is
A DDoS attack is a Distributed Denial of Service attack. It's an attempt to make a network, server, website or some other online resource unavailable to legitimate users by suspending or interrupting the services of a host that is connected to the internet. As you can imagine, DDoS attacks are always malicious.
The difference between DDoS and DoS
One letter. Ta-da. But since you understandably expect a little better from us, we'll clarify that a DoS attack is a Denial of Service attack. Denial of Service attacks use one computer and one internet connection to flood a target with packets and overwhelm its resources, while Distributed Denial of Service attacks distribute the attack method by using many computers and internet connections to target a host and its resources.
Where all those computer and internet connections come from
The good news is that there isn't some massive global army of people out there who are willing to let their computers and internet connections be used in DDoS attacks. The bad news is that the attackers behind DDoS attacks don't really need computers and internet connections to be volunteered.
DDoS attacks are typically accomplished using what is referred to as a 'Botnet.' A Botnet is a number of computers that are 1) connected to the internet and 2) have been maliciously taken over, generally using malware like a Trojan Horse, and are being controlled by an external source through standard network protocols. The actual owners of the affected computers tend to not be aware of their membership in a Botnet's so-called zombie army.
According to Incapsula's 2014 bot traffic report, a stunning 29% of all visits to websites come from malicious bots.
Demonstration of a massive HTTP flood: 690,000,000 DDoS requests from 180,000 botnets IPs
Common types of DDoS attacks
DDoS attacks can be generally divided into three categories:
DDoS damage
As mentioned, internet security firm Incapsula's research regarding DDoS impact on organizations found that 45% of all organizations surveyed had experienced a DDoS attack in 2014, with the average cost of fighting an attack ringing up to a whopping $40,000 per hour. Still breathing? Good, because we're not quite done yet. Not only do DDoS attacks lay a beating on an organization's finances, but they're also found to cause at least one of the following: software or hardware replacement, a reduction in revenue, a loss of consumer trust, customer data theft, financial theft, and theft of intellectual property. The shockwaves of a DDoS attack can be felt for months, even years.
Defending against DDoS attacks
The latest and greatest in DDoS mitigation and protection is undoubtedly cloud-based anti-DDoS services. With professional, cloud-based DDoS mitigation, in the face of an attack protective services will be activated immediately outside of your network. This means that all traffic will be redirected to the cloud, with only the filtered traffic of legitimate users ever reaching your website.
This is the most effective possible protection against all three main types of DDoS attacks. For volume-based attacks, a scrubbing server absorbs the multi-gigabytes of packets directed at the host before they ever reach the target. For protocol attacks, a mitigating protocol differentiates between legitimate traffic and malicious traffic, allowing only legitimate traffic through. And for application layer attacks, real-time monitoring of site visitor behavior blocks malicious bots and implements security challenges for unrecognized visitors.
So there you have it: a primer on the horror that is DDoS attacks, and what can be done to protect your organization. It's not always easy to learn new things, but we're all better for it. In that spirit, an archipelago is a cluster, chain or group of islands. Which should probably just be called a group of islands.

Celeb Spotlight
Growing Up With Eddie Kaye Thomas
By Jon Warech
It's been 12 long years since Jason Biggs and Shannon Elizabeth first showed the world how (not) to use a web cam, since Alyson Hannigan explained the fun stuff that can happen at band camp, and since Eddie Kaye Thomas went cougar-hunting with Stifler's mom in "American Pie." During that time, a lot has changed for Thomas, who currently stars in HBO's "How to Make It in America."
"Everyone has grown up," he tells Wonderwall of the star-studded cast, who recently reunited to film "American Reunion." "Jason Biggs and I are very good friends, but otherwise, I don't really see much of those guys at all, so I was really excited to see everybody."
RELATED: Which character on HBO's 'Boardwalk Empire' is your favorite?
These days, Thomas is more focused on white-collar crime and a collapsing Wall Street -- hardly the slice of American pie that fans are used to seeing -- as he tackles the role of hedge fund manager David Kaplan in "How to Make It in America." In the show's second season, which premieres Oct. 2, the actor says things will get complicated.
RELATED: Jennifer Lopez Embraces Her Single Status in Sin City
"Everyone's situations are a bit more serious," he said. "And you get to see some dirtier sides of everyone. We find out what Kid Cudi is doing besides just hanging out all the time, love lives are getting more interesting, and there's a little bit of a grittier look at New York. As the season goes on, [my character] gets himself into pretty bad stuff."
Remember when life was simple -- when all that mattered was making sure you didn't go to college a virgin? Well, Thomas got to relive those days while filming "American Reunion," set to hit theaters in the spring.
"We had a really wonderful time," said Thomas, who was tight-lipped about the movie. "We all click and have a very unique relationship and share a really special thing."
RELATED: See which stars spent their summer on the baseball field
A triple threat this summer, Thomas filmed "How to Make It" and "Reunion" back to back and is currently starring in an Off-Broadway production called "The Submission" until Oct. 22. His only break was a few days at Lollapalooza, where he reconnected with the music scene.
"It was amazing," he said of the music festival. "There's a lot of great new music happening. That's kind of my yearly catch-up, to not listen to the same old [stuff] over and over again. I go to Lollapalooza or Coachella and find out what I should be listening to. After Lollapalooza, I discovered Foster the People, who are really starting to blow up; My Morning Jacket gave an incredible show and there was a great local [Chicago] band named Kids These Days that might have been my favorite show there. It's a pretty eclectic group that I listen to, but I just try to go for the stuff that tickles me."
With just a few days off between gigs, Thomas has been a busy guy, but switching gears hasn't been a problem for him, mainly because he hasn't had time to worry about it.
"I'm pretty blessed this year to just jump right in it, and you kind of don't have a chance to think," he said. "I just show up for work and do the best I can."
While fans will be seeing a lot of Thomas in the near future, he's probably the only thing that his characters have in common.
"They've definitely got the same actor playing the role," he said. "I don't see ['American Pie' character] Finch in that ['How to Make It in America'] world, but I think I'm probably the least objective person to ask that question to. I'm sure there is some similarity because it's definitely me doing it, but it's definitely different universes. It will be interesting to see what people think."
"How to Make It in America" premieres Oct. 2 on HBO and "The Submission" opens tonight and runs at the MCC Theater in New York City until Oct. 22.

Chinese Company '3D-Prints' 10 Buildings In One Day 118
from the you-haven't-seen-a-real-mcmansion-yet dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
From the article : "The machines can also automatically embed all the conduits for electrical, plumbing and air-conditioning, as well as place electronic sensors to monitor the building's temperature and health over time."
Well, if they can solve the problem of rebar, then buckling won't be an issue anymore, since rebar has proper strength from the get-go. I don't really see a slower machine being much better than a fast one. The overall size of the machine depends on what you fabricate, not how fast you go about it (within reasonable limits of concrete pouring).
If I were to make a product out of it, I'd have a 5 axis machine with switchable heads. One head with an extra axis or two that can put out, restrain, cut and spot-weld rebar. Another head that can print concrete. With a 5 axis machine you can trivially print concrete on the surface of rebar going in any orientation. Heck, if they use a mix with fast initial cure, they can do skin/infill just like plastic 3D printers do, except that the infill uses a less viscous mix that self-levels. This could dramatically speed it up, and you wouldn't need to print around every piece of rebar but only some trickier ones.
This could be very much a breakthrough technology, but it would need a bit of capital investment as those machines wouldn't be cheap. For very large constructions, instead of X-Y-Z linear actuators you would need a delta-style arm [youtu.be]. Even a big one could be assembled on site and print an entire highway overpass in a week or two, starting with nothing but a hole in the ground.
The meat is rotten, but the booze is holding out. Computer translation of "The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak."

what to look for in plasma or lcd tv
I am trying to decide on plasma or LCD. I will probably end up with 46" TV because my limit for total width is 50". I think I am leaning toward LCD because room is pretty bright and have read LCD is better for glare. Still open to all ideas, suggestions. Here is what I am confused about.
1. All TV's mention HDMI inputs and they range from 1 to 3, what are these for?
2. Also have noticed some do not mention audio capabilities, others say 2.1 surround and I believe one of the Sony Bravia's I looked at say 7.1 surround. Any audio recommendations to looks for?
3. Some indicated "built in tuner", I have DirectTV, am I understand I need to go through them for HD programming, but will I need an extra box of some sort...or is this the tuner that is built in?
I hate not understanding the technology, I am trying to learn as much as possible so we do not spend a lot of money only to find out we got the wrong item. We will be using this for TV and movies only, no gaming and we do not watch sports as a rule. TV will be mounted above fireplace.
Appreciate any and all ideas, suggestions and thoughts.
Thanks all......
1. HDMI is the latest in hookup jacks. You can use it to connect your DirecTv tuner and your DVD player to your TV. I believe the latest Sony video game, the PS3, is also HDMI capable.
2. Most of the TVs in the size you are looking at will sound OK. If you want better sound it is advised to look at adding a home theater audio system.
3A. In order to get HDTV from DirecTv you will need replace your existing DirecTv tuner with the HDTV DirecTv tuner. You may have to replace the dish outside, too.
3B. The HDTV tuner in the TV is used for HDTV broadcasts received via an antenna and maybe cable tv.

Purpose: To document the history of past wiki editors, present, and future wiki editors. This is a commemoration to all wiki editors who worked hard. Since I used to be a historian for my clubs at college, my community service and role has seared this element into my Anime Vice life.
Note: This is not an exhaustive list since most of information are vague and going through wiki submissions of wiki editors are long. I don't have exact dates, but thought counts.
First, I add the dates of the volumes of Shaman King since it gives a rough timeline for events before February 24, 2011. The dates for adding Shaman King volumes are very beneficial to this blog.

**Why is Haseo's name is DarkShaper?
*Before I came to work on this project, 29 volumes were added already, and vols. 1-3 had plot summaries while volumes 10-26 had table of contents. In Shaman King, Hiroyuki Takei, author of Shaman King, created 32 volumes. I decide to add the remaining 3 volumes after I finished plot summaries for all of 29 volumes in the right format.
Ethan - Without him, none of these wiki pages exist without his authorization.
I wanted to thank the previous wiki editors who worked hard on this franchise. It was a rough road of taking on Shaman King franchise alone for 7 months now. I met new people who edit on some the Shaman King pages and ask them to help out.
Goal: I will complete this franchise, with a team or no team, by the end of this year. This is one of the major wiki projects that I have no partner on. I'm lucky to have a partner for Rave Master and a team on Fairy Tail.
*If I forgot you, I'm sorry. Can you PM me please, so I can add you. Oh, if you are one of the wiki editors who worked on Shaman King, I ask you give dates or any information for the historian blog and the vitae list.
Go Anime Vice!
This is part of the Anime Vice Vitae. This is similiar to FoxxFireart's blog for FMA brotherhood project. I am accomplishing the same goal for this empty wiki of Shaman King.
My schedule is watch 1 episode a day except on Tuesdays and Wednesday and add characters, concepts, images, and the good stuff. Only Friday and Saturday I tried to do 3 episodes. Leave a comment if you're interested in helping Animevice to fill the episodes, volumes, and characters.
March 25-April 3, 2011: Working on Project until Spring Break is over. Issues: Too much college lab work and the image goal is hard to fulfill.
Add at least one image per character. Also, the goal is to reach a minimum of 10 images or more per episodes.
Note: I have trouble finding images so I use streaming or picsearch. I don't download images because of risk of viruses.
Updated since Mar 20, 2011
Include plot summary (any length) and "Anime and Manga Differences" paragraph.
Please see episode 4 of Shaman King for a good example:
*As of March 20, 2011, I found out there was a need for another paragraph on the episode wikis: Japanese anime vs English Anime or Uncut English vs Original Cut (Eng). Somehow, I started off the project watching the uncut English version until I ran out at episode 6. As I watch the Japanese version and sometimes the English version, I noticed the words were different. For example, Minutians (Dub) to Koropokkuru (Japanese) and "Sword of light" (dub) to Harusame" (Japanese). Have to add a table of changed terms to the franchise page.
This will make the project more difficult.
When watching dub and sometimes sub, there were key dialogues that were changed on purpose. (See picture of episode 14)
The concepts that are always in Shaman King are Shaman, Ghost, and Shounen. Add these to every episode and volume of Shaman King.
See this link above for the Japanese actors.
Also I use myanimelist.net for the rest.
I am going to make a table of actors for Shaman King

Making a high wing a low wing
I picked up this global stick from hobbypeople & while laying out the parts I couldnt help but notice how nice it looked as a low wing plane.So now Im wondering if it would be possible to make it one.
I dont know anything about wing airfoils so I would like to know if the wing on this plane would fly well as a low wing aircraft,thankyou

The wing will fly fine, either on top of the fuselage or on the bottom. It looks to me that you could turn the fuselage upside down, so that the curve of the top of the wing would fit the saddle in the fuselage. But that would also require moving the vertical fin from the top to the bottom of the fuselage. It might also be necessary to change downthrust and sidethrust angles, if there are any.
But there is not much good reason to make the change to a low-wing setup, other than the cool factor. I've changed two airplanes over from high wing to low wing configuration, but it required new fuselages to get what I wanted.
Are you an experienced pilot? Any experience modifying a model?

Thanks jim,yes Im a experienced pilot but no I have no modeling experience.I was thinking of just tracing the outline of the wings root to the fuse & cutting it out.Then applying some plywood reinforcement where necessary but if it means building a new fuse than I wouldnt do it

Did I really write that? Must have been the pills post tonsilectomy...
Dreamer - chances are, your new toy's wing incidence is close to zero. If it has a symmetrical wing section, do like I did and just flip the fuselage. Looks to have a two piece wing from your photo - join with 2 degrees of dihedral each side, that'll be near enough for the configuration.
You will have to figure out putting the vertical stab on the 'new topside'. The one I 'bashed' had the tailfeathers bolted in, so that caused few issues. Checking that the tailplane incidedence comes out at zero is the tricky bit.
At risk of starting a squabble, a low wing configuration is way better than a high winged one - though there is some mileage in leaving the wing on the top and adding some anhedral, odd though this may sound. One contributor to my thread above remarked on a modeller who'd done just that. It would be quicker than my route.
I still have my modified 'Sweet'n'Lo' BARFStik, though one wing panel has 'acquired' a slight warp. To be expected with an open frame wing of that nature that's been stored in odd places too long.
If the wing is truly symmetrical in section, it will work both ways up just fine. One thing you need to check on is if there's any positive incidence angle to the wing as designed. If there is, and you flip the fuselage to put the present wing aperture on the bottom, it will become negative incidence, which ain't good.
Good luck with your project if you decide to 'bash' it. Mine flew far better after I'd reworked it.

As part of her senor project, Senior Beth Conlon of St. Peter is leading a group of students in a baking activity for learning and giving. Students from EdVisions Off Campus, an online charter school, will meet on Dec. 20 to create holiday treats and give them away. Teens from various areas throughout southern Minnesota will be led by fellow student and the aspiring pastry chef.
Conlon loves to bake and work with pastries and she wanted to fit an aspect of giving into her project. She decided that she could enlist the help of fellow classmates and turn it into a service learning opportunity! Senior projects require 300-500 hours of focus on a topic.
In addition to her service learning project, Conlon is also shadowing various pastry chefs, working as pastry chef at St Peter Food Coop and creating a mock bakery of her own design. She plans to attend the Culinary Institute of America or Johnson and Wales University.

ADHD in Children Health Center
ADHD: An Update on Diagnosis and Treatment for Kids
Drug Warnings continued...
The recommendation for the black-box warning created controversy, with some FDA consultants maintaining that the label was especially important for adults (increasingly being prescribed ADHD medications), who might have high blood pressure. Many calling for the warning label concede that the drugs have important benefits but say that increasing the awareness of the potential risks is crucial.
"The real question is whether there is any risk for children without heart problems," says Andrew Adesman, MD, chief of developmental and behavioral pediatrics at the Schneider Children's Hospital, Lake Success, N.Y.
As for the possible link to suicides, the ADHD drug Strattera is under special scrutiny. In late 2005, the FDA issued a public health advisory after reports of suicidal thoughts in five kids and a suicide attempt by one child in a clinical trial involving 2,200 participants. The advisory cautioned doctors and parents to watch for any behavior changes in children who were on the drug.
Parents such as the Ryanses worry about misdiagnoses and overprescribing, and experts concede that both can happen. But, Adesman says, overprescribing and misdiagnosis are more likely to happen if the evaluation is not thorough and is not done by a health care professional experienced in diagnosing and treating the condition.
What Is ADHD?
Kids diagnosed with ADHD -- which was once known as attention deficit disorder (ADD), or hyperactivity -- have trouble focusing on tasks, sitting still, and paying attention. While most parents have occasionally wished that their child would calm down and focus, ADHD behavior is more frequent and extreme. The condition is diagnosed three times more often in boys than girls.
ADHD is now the most common neurobehavioral disorder of childhood, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics. "That doesn't mean [every child] needs treatment," says Martin T. Stein, MD, professor of pediatrics at University of California-San Diego. But, he adds, "It is very treatable."
Making the Diagnosis
ADHD tends to run in families, says Stein, who co-chaired the American Academy of Pediatrics committee that developed guidelines for diagnosing and treating ADHD. "It refers to three behaviors that cause impairment: hyperactivity, impulsiveness, and inattention."

It was clean and quiet, so that's good. Seems like an older hotel, some spiffing up wouldn't hurt. Breakfast was sparse, waffles if you had the time to wait in line. Coffee with powdered creamer. Rather tired apples and bananas. Sausage, hash browns and hard boiled eggs were not terrible appetizing. We'll probably stay at the Comfort Inn next time through McMinnville.

Gibson EB-0 1965 Cherry Red
Hi this listing is for a 1965 Gibson EB-0 bass. It has all it's original parts except for one strap pin and a few screws. There have been a couple routed spots that have been filled back in with mahogany. The volume control doesnt seem to work very well, but i think it just needs to be cleaned. The tuners only seem to tighten when you turn them the opposite way for some reason. Maybe it can be fixed. It has also been refinshed. There are a few bumps on the refinish here and there, which are hard to show in pictures. But the finish and color still look great. It also comes with it's original hardshell case. It has a small hole on the top, but still works very well as a case. Please ask me for an accurate shipping quote. And feel free to ask me any questions.

Jon Lester reacts after giving up a second-inning homer to Sean Rodriguez. (USA Today)
Jon Lester got off to a great start in the first game of the ALDS on Friday, striking out the first four Tampa Bay Rays batters he faced and inducing a weak infield pop out from the fifth.
The Boston Red Sox ace, however, ran into a little bit of bad luck on the sixth batter. After taking left fielder Sean Rodriguez to a 2-2 count, Lester threw a pitch to the bottom end of the strike zone. Both the reaction from Lester and the Fenway Park crowd suggested he had just struck out his fifth batter of the game and ended Tampa Bay's half of the second inning.
Home plate umpire Chris Guccione had a different view, though, calling a ball that ran the count to full.
Given one more shot at it, Rodriguez took full advantage and drove the next pitch over the Green Monster in left field for a 1-0 Rays lead.
Here's the borderline pitch in question, what's your call?

Digi and opk with lines..
Helen, 30 & Tait, 32
Getting Married in the Spring of 2014!
what is bw?
It still doesn't look like the green line test is quite positive. The test line isn't quite as dark as the control. It's so frustrating when they're unclear and not 100% reliable.
Oh, and bw = blood work.
It was positive.. in person the test line was way darker.. it`s probably the pic quality : s
very interesting, are you going to test again with the digy to see if its positive today?
Me-29 DH-30 DD-7 DD-5

BFP!!!! Due January 2014
no... I am out of digi sticks : S
I think the opk with lines are more sensitive than the digi. Digi gets you closer to ovulation, but I may be mistaken. I know you're in Canada too and I just went to Dollarama and bought 12 opk with lines for $1.25 each. I was pleased although not sure how good they are. I know it's way more important for you with the IUI to get your O perfect.
Is IVF still covered in QC?
Hi Em,
yes IVF is still covered. You have 3 rounds with meds and all Frozen Embroys to transfer for free...
I was right on time with the Dollorama opk... they are good!
Ha thanks for the tip about the dollarama tests! I felt kind of weird walking out of there with all this canada day stuff and a dozen opks but whatever. The girl asked me if I wanted them in a different bag so th be kids wouldn't get into the stuff. good idead!
You've probably answered this before but why did you guys choose donor sperm before trying IVF, especially with IVF being free for 3 rounds?
You are not alone, I always buy 10 or so opks when I go to Dollorama...
as for IVF, DH has only one testicle and his testosterone level is very low. So if anything happens during the aspiration, he can loose his last nut.
So after weighing all the pros and cons, we decided to go with DS. DH is way more comfortable that way and for us it didn`t make that much of a difference. I had a few episodes where I requestionned my choice but never because my DH was sad or anything.. it was just 2 equal opportunities and we had to choose between the two of them...
Let me know if you have any questions, I am very open..

On-Chip Bus Serialization Method for Low-Power Communications
Free registration required
Executive Summary
One of the critical issues in on-chip serial communications is increased power consumption. In general, serial communications tend to dissipate more energy than parallel communications due to bit multiplexing. This paper proposes a low-power bus serialization method. This encodes bus signals prior to serialization so that they are converted into signals that do not greatly increase in transition frequency when serialized. It significantly reduces the frequency by making the best use of word-to-word and bit-by-bit correlations presented in original parallel signals.

United States Patent 3,791,988 DIAGNOSTIC TEST FOR GLUCOSE Dieter Josef, Pratteln, and Alfred Lampart, Magden,
Switzerland, and Pirmin Schwartz, Weil am Rhine, Germany, assignors to Hoifmann-La Roche Inc., Nutley,
NbDrawing. Filed Mar. 23, 1972, Ser. No. 237,528 Int. Cl. com 33/16 US. 01. 252-408 13 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An improved diagnostic composition for the quantitative determination of glucose in biological fluids comprising glucose oxidase, a phenazin and/or phenoxazin-derivative and a tetrazolium salt as well as the incorporation thereof upon a bibulous carrier are described.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to new and improved diagnostic compositions which are useful in both the qualitative and quantitative determination of glucose in fluids, particularly body fluids such as blood, serum, plasma, urine and the like.
The quantitative determination of glucose in body fluids is of great importance to diabetic individuals who must have frequent checks on the level of glucose in their body fluids as a means of regulating the sugar intake in their diets. The qualitative determination of glucose in body fluids is of importance in routine testing of patients in doctors offices, clinics, institutions, and hospitals as well as in the mass screening of individuals for the presence of the disease.
The ideal diagnostic composition for the detection of glucose in fluids must be simple so as not to require a high degree of technical skill on the part of the technician administering the test, sufliciently rapid to be utilized in large scale qualitative screening determinations and be sensitive and accurate enough to be useful to the clinician. Additionally, such a composition must be sufliciently stable to meet all situations such as prolonged storage and the advance preparation of solutions for large scale screening operations. The present invention pertains to such a composition.
In recent years the methods of determining glucose concentration in fluids have been primarily based on the enzymatic oxidation of glucose with glucose oxidase and oxygen with subsequent detection and measurement of the resulting peroxide or gluconic acid oxidation products by means of a color reaction. Such methods suffer from the disadvantage of having fluctuations in results due to variations in the oxygen content of different samples. Further, with such methods it can never be guaranteed that oxidation process proceeds quantitatively.
One attempt to overcome the above described disadvantage is the addition of an endogeneous oxygen donor, e.g., hydrogen peroxide or the like to the oxidation solution, thereby limiting the measurement of glucose to the relatively insensitive gluconic acid determination. The disadvantage of this approach is the comparative insensitivity of the gluconic acid determination.
The method and composition of the present invention aflords a means whereby the enzymatic oxidation may be utilized to quantitatively determine glucose content Without the disadvantages of prior art processes. Additionally, the method of the invention has the advantage over the prior art of being equally accurate under aerobic and anaerobic conditions and by not being hampered by false positive results due to the presence of ascorbic acid.
In the method of the present invention, the phenazinand/or the phenoxazin derivative enters into the enzy- 3,791,988 Patented Feb. 12., 1974 matic oxidation reaction as a hydrogen acceptor. The reduced form of the phenazinand/or the phenoxazin-derivative(phen, thus formed reacts rapidly in a nonenzymatic reaction with the tetrazolium salt to regenerate the original phenazin and/or phenoxazin-derivative (phen and form a formazan compound which is stable and possesses an intense color. The amount of glucose present is then measured by colorimetrically reading the color of the formazan compound. The reaction may be represented as follows:
glucose phen gluconic acid p red phen d tetrazolium phen formazan Phenazin-derivatives which can be present in the agent provided by the present invention include phenazinium salts in particular methoand etho-compounds. Phenazinium methosulfate is particularly preferred as it is commercially available.
Phenoxazin-derivatives include phenoxazinium salts in particular 7-dimethylamino 1,2 benzophenoxazinium chloride (meldola blue) or 7-dimethyl-amino-2'-hydroxy- 1,2-benzophenoxazinium chloride.
The selection of a particular tetrazolium salt is not critical to the present invention. Examples of suitable compounds include thiazolyl blue [2,5-diphenyl-3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl) mono-tetrazolium bromide],
nitrotetrazolium blue chloride [3,3-dianisyl-4,4'-bis[2- (4-nitrophenyl)-5-phenyl]-tetrazolium chloride],
iodonitrotetrazolium chloride [2-(p-iodophenyl)-3-(pnitrophenyl -5-phenyl-tetrazolium chloride] neotetrazolium chloride [2,2,5,S'-tetraphenyl-3-(4,4'-biphenylene) -ditetrazolium chloride] tetranitrotetrazolium blue [2,2,5,5-tetranitrophenyl-3- (3 ,3 -dimethoxy-4,4'-biphenylene -ditetrazolium chloride],
triphenyltetrazolium chloride, tetrazolium violet [2,5-
diphenyl-3-(a-naphthyD-tetrazolium chloride] and tetrazolium blue [3,3'-dianisyl-4,4'-bis-(3,5-diphenyl) tetrazolium chloride].
Preferred among these are thiazolyl blue, nitrotetrazolium blue chloride and iodonitrotetrazolium chloride.
The diagnostic compositions of the present invention can be provided in a solid form,, e.'g., tablets or powder or, preferably, as a solution in a suitable solvent. Such solutions may be utilized per se or impregnated onto a bibulous carrier such as filter paper, cardboard and the like.
Wherein solutions of the diagnostic compositions of the invention are contemplated, aqueous solutions are preferred. It is expedient, however, to add an organic solvent, e.g., a lower alkanol such as ethanol or a solubilizing agent, e.g., polyethylene glycol, polyoxysorbitanic acid ester or the like to hold in solution the water-insoluble formazans which are formed in the determination reaction. A preferred polyethylene glycol is polyethylene glycol 1500 and a preferred polyoxysorbitanic acid ester is that marketed by Atlas Chemical Industries, Inc., Wilmington, Del. under the trademark Tween 81. This substance chemically is polyoxyethylene(5)sorbitan monooleate. In place of a solvent, a suspending agent such as gelatin or an alginate may be utilized to form a suspension of the formazans as they are produced.
The compositions of the present invention are prepared by simply mixing together the phenazin and/or phenoxazin-deriyative, the tetrazolium salt and glucose oxidase. While the relative concentrations of the components is not particularly critical, it is preferred to have from about 0.1 to about 2.5 millimoles of phenazin and/or phenoxazin-derivative and from about 1.0 to about 10.0 millimoles of tetrazolium salt present for each 0.5 to about 5.0 mg. of glucose oxidase present.
It is preferred in the practice of the present invention to have the pH of the fluid to be tested for glucose content at between about pH 4 and 8, preferably between pH 5.5 and pH 7.5 when the diagnostic composition of the invention is admixed therewith. It is therefore preferred to add a suitable buffer to the diagnostic compositions of the invention. Preferred among the buffering agents common to the art is a phosphate buffer system. Wherein the diagnostic compositions of the invention are in the form of a solution, said solution is preferably from about 0.1 to about 0.4 molar with respect to the buffer. Where the compositions of the invention are in a dry form, a suflicient amount of buffer is added so that a solution formed therefrom will have the desired concentration of buffer. Alternately, the buffer may be added as a solution to the solution of diagnostic composition before conducting the diagnostic determination.
The selection of the particular tetrazolium compound in the practice of the present invention may be determined by the type of test to be conducted. For example, a tetrazolium compound producing a formazan which absorbs light in the spectral range sensitive to the eye can be utilized for qualitative or semi-quantitative glucose determinations such as by the use of bibulous strips impregnated with reagent. Where quantitative determinations are to be carried out utilizing a photometer, the selection of a tetrazolium compound should be made so that the light absorbance of the formazan produced therefrom in the reaction is maximal at the wavelength capacity of the particglar apparatus being utilized. The following table illustrates the wavelength absorption maximum of the formazan produced from preferred tetrazolium compounds in accordance with the invention.
TABLE Wavelength of the absorption maximum of the formazan in Color of the form- Tetrezolium component azan Thlazolyl blue 570 nm Violet. Tetranitrotetrazolium blue 530 nm Blue-red.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- Brazilian crude oil output slid for the second consecutive month in February as planned maintenance shutdowns sapped production, the National Petroleum Agency (ANP), said.
Brazil produced an average 2.017 MMbopd in January, down 1.8% from January and 8.5% from February 2012, the ANP said.
Oil production in Latin America's largest country was expected to decline in the first half of 2013 because of ongoing maintenance work at aging offshore platforms operated by Petrobras. Brazil has also encountered productivity declines at mature fields in the offshore Campos Basin, which accounts for the majority of the country's crude.
The troubles have offset new production from the country's much anticipated subsalt fields, a series of ultra deepwater oil discoveries buried under a thick layer of salt off the country's Atlantic Ocean coast. Brazil's subsalt region, where new wells have recently increased production, produced 283,100 bopd in February, the ANP said.
Natural gas production, however, climbed to a fresh record in February, the ANP said. Brazil produced 76.5 MMcmpd during the month, besting the previous record of 76.2 MMcmpd registered in December. Brazil produced 75.9 MMcmpd in January.

Fledgling Poem by Andrew David Dalby
Alight here, sweet neophyte,
and lay my heady heart to rest!
For though it is hard to hear,
the patter of your tenderness;
I vow to never dare a push,
or break, or force a nasty thrust,
As I make single statement,
that in me you can truly trust.
For you are nearly so complete,
and almost ready now to sing,
But, I sense a nervous reflection,
that slowly starts to rise within.
For in the stretching
and the beating of your powerful wings,
There rests a tousled shake,
within the gossamer nest you're in.
And though a heavy door,
longs to close upon this part of your life,
I wonder… are you ready,
for the step that leads to constant flight…
That so slow, eternal wander,
into the gentle rise of ever-evening,
Which begins with tempting delight
of such soft sensual releasing,
Yet ends in shadows that fall,
to flakes of cold ashes in patches of dull grey;
As I beg with open heart
and plead for you kind spirit here to stay.
For it is in the night, dear pupil,
I hope that you come to understand;
Where senses are matched and mingled,
entwined in my soft hand.
Then I in whispering sighing hints,
will succumb as you so gently sing
With the sublime taste upon your breath,
of sweet honey rose and jasmine.
