US 1072052 A Abstract available in Claims available in Description (OCR text may contain errors) J. J. STOEHR. CONVERTIBLE FIELD APPARATUS. APPLICATION FILED SEPT.18,1912v SI h we nto'z Patented Sept. 2, 1913. JOHN JOSEPH STOEHR, OF BROOKLYN, YNEW YORK. CONVERTIBLE FIELD AFPARATUS. Specification of Letters Patent. Patented Sept. 2, 1913. Application filed September 18, 1912. Serial No. 720,987. 1' all whom It may concern: Be it known that I, J 01m J osErrr S'ronna, a citizen of the United States, and a residentof Brooklyn, in the county of Queens and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Convertible Field Apparatus, of which the following is a specification. This invention relates to improvements in convertible field apparatus, particularly adapted for use by army corps or similar bodies of men. lls objects are, first, to provide an etlicient field table, desk, stretcher or hospital accesso y, so constructed that it can be readily arranged for its several purposes or for transportation. A. second object is to so arrange the parts that when it is desired to transport the apparatus it may be divided into sections one portion being carried by each of two men and in such manner as in no wise to inter fete with the ordinary use of their limbs or to impede their movement. And finally, to provide such apparatus of a design cm bodying extreme lightness, combined with adequate strength and rigidity to withstand tbc severe and rough usage such devices are. liable to be subjected to. These objects are attained by the novel construction of parts hereinafter fully described and shown in the accompanying drawings, forming parts of this specification, and in whieh:- Figure 1 is a perspective view showing the apparatus extended as used for a cot or stretcher. Fig. 2 is a similar view of the same arranged as a desk or hospital accessory. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the apparatus reversed and arranged as a fieldtablc. Fig. 4 is a view showing the apparatus folded into its least compass. Fig. 5 is a perspective view showing a separate portion ready to be taken on the back of a carrier, Fig. 6 is a similar View of the remaining section prepared for like transportation, and Fig. 7 is a cross sectional view taken on Fig. 1, showing the construct-ion of the hinged joints. Like characters of reference denote like parts throughout the several views. The invention comprises two similar pairs of bars 10 and 11, the latter being preferably souuwvhat longer, formed with an offset por tion 12 and terminating outwardly in enlarged ends 13; these bars may be made of chrome'nickel steel tubes formed into such cross section as is best adapted for the purpose, while that at 12 is made of such shape as to fit the hands; the enlargement 13 prevents the hands from slip ing off the ends and also affords a secure ootm when disposed as indicated in Figs. 2 an 3: The inner ends of the bars 10 and. 11 are rigidly connected by a laterally disposed cross bar 14 having formed therewith a plurality ofprojections 15 the same being bored to act as hinge members in connection with similar engaging members 16 formed -on the ad: jacently disposed cross bar 17 which connects the ends of the horizontally disposed rails 19, the latter being in ettect a continua,- tion of the bars 10 and 11. Passing through the bore of these hinge members 15 and 16. are rods 20 which act as pivots therefor and. have at one end screw-threaded winged nuts 21 seating against one of the outer hinge members; on the other side, at the 0p osite ends of the rods are hand-whee s or knurled heads 22 the arrangementbeing such that the pivot rods may act also as clamp screws binding the hinge joints rigidly in any adjusted position whenever 'it may be desired; these rods may also be entirely withdrawn and replaced in position in one set of hinge members only to prevent them from becoming mislaid when the hinge joints are disassociated. .-Loop brackets or feet 23 are secured on the outside of thebars 10 and 11, and rails 19, the same being so spaced that each pair may take the load proportionately when used as indicated in Fig. 1; these feet may be riveted, welded or otherwise united in place in any approved manner. Extending from side to side over the bars 10 are coverings 2t which may be either metallic, as aluminum plates, or textile fabrics, as strong duck, canvas or the like, a similar covering 25 is provided over the space between the rails 19 and also over a portion of the bars 11, as at 26; at the edges between the bars are cross rails 27 and 28 respectively; to the latter is attached a plate 29 by hinges so that it may lay flat or be raised at an angle as shown in Fig. 1; midway along the edges of this plate are pivotally connected braces 30 having looped members 31 capable of being engaged with pins 32 or other analogous securing means set in the sides of the bars 11 for supporting the plate 29. Below, or under the plates 24, 26 and 29 are secured two pairs of straps 33, made adjustable for length and arranged to be conveniently applied to the shoulders of carriersfwhen the apparatus is separated into sections to make the burden more easily carried; parts contacting with the person of the carrier may be covered with leather or cushioned if desired. The operation of assembling or dismounting and of forming the apparatus into the several arrangements indicated will be obvious from the foregoing description and the drawings. I am aware that convertible furniture is commijn, hence do not claim such features as invention, but I am not cognizant that convertible apparatus capable of complete disassociation for transportation exists and particularly any of a kind that can be carried'by a common soldier without in any way interfering with the use of his arms or weapons, either in action or in marching. Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Let ters Patent, is.: 1 1. In an apparatus of the class described, the combination with hollow handle bars, of intermediate bars between said handle bars, hinged connections between said intertion, and carrying means consisting of straps adapted to be worn by a carrier. 2. In an apparatus of the class described, the combination with hollow handle bars, of intermediate bars between said handle bars, hinged connections between said intermediate bars and said handle bars, means combined with said hinged connections whereby they may be rigidly clamped in any angular ad ustment within the radius of their action, a that covering overlying each section, a plate hinged at one edge to one of said sections, means for adjusting the inclination of said plate, and a pair of shoulder straps combined with each handle bar section. i 3. In an apparatus of the class described, the combination with hollow handle bars, of intermediate bars between said handle bars, hinged connections interposed at the joints therebetween, means combined with said hinged connections whereby they may be rigidly clamped in any adjustment below the normal level plane of operation, said means permitting of complete disassoriatiou into separate units and a carrying means comprised of shoulder straps combined with each unit. A In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses. JOHN JOSEPH STOEIIR. Witnesses: WARREN E. W'iLms, CHARLES R. KnUIcoER. Referenced by

(In case you weren't aware, pregnant ladies aren't supposed to drink alcohol.)Twitter reacts to Charlotte Riley pregnancy rumorThe actress's rep told journalist, "I do not comment on her personal life,"... and therefore has neither confirmed nor denied.

If I have water in my oil is that a blown head gasket?
Asked by JacklynVictoria Dec 03, 2013 at 10:25 AM about the 1996 Chevrolet Lumina 4 Dr STD Sedan
Question type: Maintenance & Repair
Car kept over heating, checked my oil and water was in it, went to do a oil change and when I let the oil out water also came out with it..is this a blown head gasket? and if so what do I need to do?

7jimmy7 answered about a year ago
everyone assumes a head gasket, it just sounds nice, no doubt warped heads, cracked heads, burnt piston ect, if you like the car ,shop for an engine replacement
JacklynVictoria answered about a year ago
so I need a new engine.. could I but copper sealant in it? somebody told me to use Blue Devil and someone else told me to try the copper kind...could either of them work?
Chris answered about a year ago
Could also be a blown lower intake manifold gasket, if you have coolant in the oil and have driven like this for a while chances are the main and rod bearings are on the way out already. You could take the chance and investigate, have seen dozens blow the intake gaskets and do the same thing you describe. You have a 50/50 shot of saving the engine at this point. You have the 3.1L right?
JacklynVictoria answered about a year ago
Im not sure I have a v6 4 door car...All I can do is try at this point I guess ;/ ....im going add the sealant do a change the oil, change my thermostat and change the oil filter..
Chris answered about a year ago
be very careful if you start to hear the engine get noisy pull over, don't want to scare you but if as you described is true make sure you have a phone and if you are in cold climate make sure you have a warm jacket and gloves. I was a Chrysler technician for 12 years, did many of these gaskets and around 30 percent of the crank bearings and rod bearings would fail because they were exposed to antifreeze to long and already wore the bearings to the point of failure. If this happens the engine will lock up.
Chris answered about a year ago
We wish you the best of luck...fingers crossed!!
JacklynVictoria answered about a year ago
okay, I'm not sure if the coolant got into anything or not, I just know it looks like water in the oil, and smokes really bad, and recently my battery kept dyeing for a reason I don't know, and its like when the car start running hot the harder it is to start then my battery gets weak and dies.
Chris answered about a year ago
white smoke out of the tail pipe, sweet smell to it?
JacklynVictoria answered about a year ago
I'm not sure I know I see ALOT of smoke coming from under my hood, and I think it is coming from my tail pipe also, but i'm not sure about the smell..
tonheib350 answered about a year ago
The car has a 3.1 liter v6 and well known for blowing head gaskets....and yes the others are right it's simpler and cheaper to replace the engine ....blue devil is a waste of money that you can use towards a better engine

On Friday Hillary Rodham Clinton left her State Department office in Washington for the last time. In four years she has traveled nearly a million miles and visited 112 countries, more than any other U.S. secretary of state. For Israelis and Palestinians, Clinton's exit is a sad departure.
- By Frances Weingartten
- 04 Feb 2013
It always amazes me how so many Ha'aretz reporters manage to blame Israel for the fact that we don't have a peace treaty with the Palestinians. They seem to totally ignore the fact that the Palestinians are intransigent and have no intention of coming to any agreement with us. Their goal is and always has been to rid Israel of all Jews and take over our land. For the Americans or anyone else to urge us to make peace, to be 'nice' to the Palestinians is to play the fool, which is what Clinton (and Obama) has done for the duration of her role as Secretary of State. Empathy? That's what you think the Palestinians are waiting for? A further freeze on settlements? (As if the 10 months wasn't a foolish mistake) That's what will bring Palestinians to the table? Barak Ravid lives in a different world than I do.
If selected for publication, it will appear as soon as possible on Haaretz.com.

Affleck reveals hopes for his children
Comment on this storyLondon - Ben Affleck doesn't want his children to become celebrities.
The Argo star - who has three children, Violet, 7, Seraphina, 4, and 11-month-old Samuel, with his actress wife Jennifer Garner - has admitted he doesn't want them to work in Hollywood because he already thinks they are exposed too much.
He told E! News at the Producer's Guild of America Awards in Los Angeles on Saturday night: "I would do whatever I could to discourage that. My kids have enough issues of being exposed in ways that I don't want them to be exposed, in magazines and shows and stuff."
However, the actor admitted that when his children get older, he will support them if they are interested in learning more about acting.
He said: "You know, if you're interested in drama, there's great theatre classes and stuff and that's what's appropriate."
Ben, who won the award for Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Picture at the event, previously revealed he thinks his working life is "richer" because of his family life.
He explained: "They're the most important people in my life. Family is a wonderful thing, but it doesn't mean you can't do other stuff in your life. In fact, having a family makes whatever other thing you have that much richer. If it was just me, I'd be home alone and think, 'Well, something good happened at work', but it's much nicer to share it with people you love.
"I think any time you become a richer person you have more substance. I hope that happened to me with having a family, but you never know!" - Bang Showbiz

Just a quick post showing a Schwalbe One 28mm tubeless tyre mounted on a Superstar Tactic AM 28mm wide 29er rim. The tyre stretches to 32mm at 80PSI and still measures 31.5mm at lower pressures… Lovely😁
Watch this space, more to come…
I have used Schwalbe Kojaks on my 26″ "road" bikes for quite a while now and they are great all-round tyres but their rather basic stiff casing limits their performance both in terms of speed and comfort. It's the same story with almost all high volume 26″ slicks. So I've decided to get some top end MTB tyres and shave them!
I am pretty certain that your mum and everyone on bike forums have already told you that standard road tyres should not be run tubeless as their beads are not strong enough to stay on the rim.
If you're thinking about running narrow tyres at 100PSI you'll really need dedicated tubeless road clinchers with adequately strong bead. You may be lucky with certain setups but it'll be a Russian roulette on two wheels.
Actually… yes you can! Read the rest of this entry »
Which is faster? A 2.00″ wide mountain bike tyre with shaven tread at 20,30PSI or a 28mm (31-32mm) road tyre at 60,80PSI?

As others have mentioned, the EMP is not polymer. It has an anodized aluminum frame and steel slide and barrel. That costs some money. Springfield had to re-engineer the 1911 and the EMP uses something like 15 non-standard parts. This was done both to decrease size and increase reliability. As MLeake mentioned, the smaller guns are often more difficult to make reliable. The STI Shadow, Dan Wesson ECO, and most other small 1911s are actually bigger than the EMP. The STI LS is also very small and uses 1911 controls but is not a true 1911 since it uses a linkless barrel.
All in all, $1,100 for an EMP is not out of line. Obviously, however, you can buy small 9mms for much less. I have the Kahr CM9 at less than half the price of the EMP. Still, I sometimes think of getting one.
Rules of Carry
: 1. Any gun is better than no gun. 2. A gun that is reliable is better than a gun that is not. 3. A hole in the right place is better than a hole in the wrong place. 4. A bigger hole is a better hole.
no guns = might makes right

T-shirts with a message
CORPUS CHRISTI - A Mexico City line of urban chic T-shirts has stopped in Corpus Christi.
The saucy tees by NaCo are emblazoned with a plucky written or graphic message, such as 'M is for Mija' or 'Se Habla Español.'
One of the more popular designs is a picture of sneakers hanging from cable lines.
"It's cool that a big company like (Macy's South) is taking a chance on us," said designer Edoardo Chavarín, who launched the brand in 1999 with Robby Vient, his schoolmate at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, Calif.
Their clothing company is named as a wordplay on a desultory Spanish label — naco — traditionally used to insult someone's taste and class standing.
"It (was) like somebody saying, 'Oh my gosh, you look so tacky — you're not going to get in the club wearing that,'" a representative for the retailer, said.
The label has worked with big-name celebrities and has produced limited edition apparel for events such as the Latin Grammy Awards and MTV Video Music Awards Latin America.
Chavarín sees the Latino cultural expansion into the mainstream as a continuing trend. "Latino Hispanic culture is getting so big in the U.S. that I don't think it's wise to ignore it," he said.
In a nod to empowerment through humor, the message tees sport edgy designs that riff on cultural cues.
"We try to be very simple and direct with a sense of humor — kind of a no-design design. It's trying to send a message," Chavarín said. The majority of NaCo shirt slogans hint at multiple meanings.
"I really like the one that says, 'Brown is the New White.' We're talking about rice, not people," Chavarín said.

Lawmaker decries secrecy around parole records
Goss sued Manchester and the state claiming they were negligent for releasing Vandebogart on $200 personal recognizance bail when he was arrested for allegedly choking a Manchester woman three months before Kimberly's murder, unaware he was on parole.
"She'd still be here, obviously," Goss said. "I often wonder what my life would have been if that never happened."
On the advice of the Attorney General's Office, the Department of Corrections denied a recent Sunday News request to detail where 43 convicted murderers who are free on lifetime parole are living or provide any details of their parole plan and responsibilities.
Pantelakos said she plans to discuss the matter with other committee members to see whether a change in the law would be appropriate.
One major problem is continued cuts to the Department of Corrections' budget, she said.
According to Jeffrey Lyons, Department of Corrections spokesman, there are 1,914 inmates on parole and 3,893 on probation with about 64 parole/probation officers supervising them.
Rockingham County Attorney Jim Reams said the Kimberly Goss Act was rarely invoked in the past because parolees who were arrested for new crimes were returned to state prison for a revocation hearing, so bail wasn't an issue. Reams said that policy changed a few years ago, and the Department of Corrections doesn't return parolees to state prison now until they are convicted of the new crime.
"Now, because of a change in the policy at DOC that they do not take them back until conviction, we may start to hear more about that kind of statute," Reams said of the Kimberly Goss Act, which is still on the books.
"They are getting out more frequently and quicker than before," Reams said. "The whole theory is to rehabilitate them. Why wouldn't the public have the right to know the rehabilitation plan?"
Goss thinks the public keeping an eye on parolees could be helpful to law enforcement, and maybe save lives.

Worlds Fastest Stringer???
Here is a video I came across on Youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvYMm2iniK8
I know it was back in 1985, the the machine they were using looks like a Eagnas or Guterman (NCR Sports), maybe even a Czech Tension machine. I wonder if the world record has been broken since then? |
I watched this video a while ago, too bad they don't have the video for the complete process, but I am wondering was the string job done by TWO persons or ONE person.
I am also wondering any other people try to break this record after that.... |
BTW, check this one out, I think he weave the cross with his eyes closed!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xRLYkAkWzeo&NR=1 |
I saw that too, but that was only one weave. I can't tell if he had his eyes closed, because the resolution was pretty bad.
I've still got my Ektelon D as a back up machine! Serious Workhorse! Yeah, they were stringing as a pair - looks like one guy weaving and clamping and the other guy tensioning. Not sure if that would make me any faster tho! Also, at the end the racquet was still on the table and the string ends not cut so I would guess that the time was for the racquet on the machine and doesn't include mounting etc. I think these days fastest stringer comps include cutting, mounting, stringing and removal from the machine?
I reckon with an aeropro or pure drive and a nice, easy weaving syn gut I could go to about 12 minutes for a quality job but normally average around 24! Ash |
When I worked in a pro-shop in Sweden we strung an awful large amount of rackets each day. One of the young guns at that place strung one POG 14/18 racket at 7 min 38 sek with me holding the stop-watch in my hand.
It was unreal to see! It was strung with a prince synth gut on a Neos 1000 machine. |
The fastest i saw live was of 13 m but it wasnt a record or anything of that type :)
the quickest ive ever done was 15 mins 28 secs .....lol
1) It clearly says it was a duo in the video.
2) There are no clamps. Can you call it stringing when you don't pull it to a tension? Looks to me like a worthless string job. |
Fastest racquet time at TW:
07:07- Prince Original Graphite w/Wilson Stamina |
wow that ^^ is fast, I guess it was a 1 piece, maybe the mid version? not sure if this would make it any faster though.
the 10 minute mark, but that is seriously fast! I think it takes me 7:00 just to mount and cut the strings, but I'm pretty slow. How fast can he/she string a 18x20 head prestige w/CAPS? :) |
on average it takes 17 minutes at the USO.

If you're still feeling the excesses of the festive period and haven't got your healthy resolutions off the ground, Transport for London (TfL) in partnership with Walk Unlimited has lined up another weekend of free guided walks on Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 January to help you on your way.
Expert guides will be on hand to help Londoners enjoy the multitude of cityscapes, greenways and trails that form the Capital's acclaimed Walk London walking network.
The walks are suitable for everyone – from the experienced rambler to the occasional leisure walker, the young and the old. All Winter Wander walks start and finish either at, or within easy reach of public transport facilities, and explore sections of the Walk London Network.
Passing through Lambeth on Saturday, see the amazing history of the banks of the River Thames - 2000 years of history.
As you stroll along one of the most historic and beautiful parts of the Thames shoreline, you will also see eight iconic bridges, two world-famous theatres, an infamous prison, a palace, and a buzzing open-air market. The walk meets at 10.30am outside Waterloo Station Exit 6 on York Road and finish at London Bridge.
Ben Plowden, Director of Surface Strategy & Planning, TfL Surface Transport, said: "Whether it's for health reasons, leisure or convenience, walking is a great way to get around, and to explore and enjoy the city's wonderful landscape.
Take advantage of our free led walks this weekend and invite family and friends too. You will be in the hands of knowledgeable experts who will be able to reveal lots of interesting facts about local areas to help you discover more about our great city. "
'Winter Wanders' encapsulate London - taking in its abundance of iconic landmarks, the tranquillity of its parks and open spaces, the views and vibrancy of its bustling rivers and the tranquillity of its canals and waterways. Winter wanderers will also sample the hidden gems dotted right across the capital.
Anne Clark, Walk Unlimited MD, said: Sponsored guided walks are one of the many ways TfL is contributing to making London an increasingly walk-friendly city with further initiatives in place to make it an easier, exciting and pleasurable city to explore on foot.
Working in partnership with the London boroughs, these measures include improving walking routes, introducing new pedestrian wayfinding signs through the Legible London programme and an enhanced network of Greenways running through parks, forests, along waterways and quiet residential streets.
The Winter Wanders weekend is organised by Walk Unlimited and funded by TfL. To find out more about the all the walks across London visit www.walklondon.org.uk

The Lasso: Roping in the best of the web
American-born anchor quits Russian television gig during live broadcast
She didn't quite go all Howard Beale from the movie Network, but Russia Today anchor Liz Wahl had her own special way of airing out some displeasure.
Wahl, a Washington, D.C. correspondent for the network, was mad about working for a company that continued to endorse the actions of Vladimir Putin, and she simply wasn't going to take it any more.
So, she quit on live television earlier this week.
In her final segment, Wahl told the audience simply that she couldn't be "part of a network that whitewashes the actions of Putin. I'm proud to be an American and believe in disseminating the truth, and that is why, after this newscast, I am resigning."

... I'd be more afraid of the silver than cephalexin. Cephalosporin are probably one of the safer antibiotics. Why is silver more 'natural' or safer? Cephalosporin compounds were first isolated from sewers; how much more natural is that? What evidence exists that a cephalosporin is more risky than silver or vice versa? Who regulates the recommended silver formulations to ensure proper silver content? (There have been reports of inconsistent formulations.) What are the possible side effects of both options, particularly in children? These are the questions I would ask myself.
Also, this may be a little off-topic but I would be cautious with lavender, particularly on boys. I highly suspect it is an endocrine disruptor. Lavender may work in ways similar to the hormone oestrogen. It has been suspected of inducing breast growth in a few pre-pubescent boys whose mothers were using topical applications containing lavender oil. (Their breasts returned to normal after stopping the applications.) This is probably more of side-effect of long-term use but I'd still be cautious. There was lavender in my dishwasher soap while I suffered infertility. Was it a contributing factor? Who knows. |

Oesophageal carcinoma
Oesophageal carcinoma is relatively uncommon. It tends to present with increasing dysphagia, initially to solids and progressing to liquids as the tumour increases in size, obstructing the lumen of the oesophagus.
Oesophageal cancer is responsible for <1% of all cancers and 4-10% of all GI malignancies. There is recognised male preponderance with the squamous cell subtype, M:F 4:1. Blacks are more susceptible than caucasians, 2:1.
The incidence of the subtypes has regional variation. The squamous cell subtype has the greatest worldwide incidence (~90%), but the adenocarcinoma subtype is more common in many parts of North America and Europe. In addition, there are certain regions where individuals are at particularly high risk of developing oesophageal cancer, e.g. Iran, parts of Africa, Italy and China.
Predisposing factors include:
- alcohol
- tobacco: particularly for squamous cell
- achalasia
- asbestosis
- Barrett oesophagus: for adenocarcinoma
- coeliac disease
- ionising radiation
- caustic stricture/lye stricture
- Plummer-Vinson syndrome
- obesity
- history of oral/pharyngeal cancer
- human papilloma virus (HPV)
Clinical presentation
- progressive dysphagia
- weight loss
- gastroesophageal reflux
- hoarseness, cough, vocal cord paralyis, or other signs/symptoms of mediastinal invasion
Histological types:
- squamous cell carcinoma of oesophagus: 81-95% (worldwide)
adenocarcinoma of oesophagus: 4-19% (worldwide)
- arising from mucosal/submucosal glands, heterotopic gastric mucosa, or columnar-lined epithelium
- >90% related to Barrett oesophagus
- tend to occur at the gastro-oesophageal junction
- other types
Macroscopic appearance
polypoid/fungating (most common)
- sessile/pedunculated tumour
- lobulated surface protruding
- irregular, polycyclic, overhanging, step-like "apple core" lesion
- ulcerating: large ulcer niche within bulging mass
- infiltrating: gradual narrowing with smooth transition
- superficial spreading carcinoma
See main article: oesophageal cancer staging.
- lymphatic:
- anterior jugular chain and supraclavicular nodes (primary in upper 1/3)
- para-oesophageal and subdiaphragmatic nodes (primary in middle 1/3)
- mediastinal and paracardial and coeliac trunk nodes (primary in lower 1/3)
- haematogenous: lung, liver, adrenal glands
Radiographic features
Chest radiograph
Many indirect signs can be sought on a chest radiograph and these include:
- widened azygo-oesophageal recess with convexity toward right lung (in 30% of distal and mid-oesophageal cancers)
- thickening of posterior tracheal stripe and right paratracheal stripe >4 mm (if tumour located in upper third of oesophagus)
- widened mediastinum
- tracheal deviation
- posterior tracheal indentation/mass
- retrocardiac or posterior mediastinal mass
- oesophageal air-fluid level
- lobulated mass extending into gastric air bubble
- repeated aspiration pneumonia (with tracheo-oesophageal fistula)
Barium Swallow
- irregular stricture
- pre-stricture dilatation with 'hold up'
- shouldering of the stricture
- eccentric or circumferential wall thickening >5 mm
- perioesophageal soft tissue and fat stranding
- dilated fluid- and debris-filled oesophageal lumen is proximal to an obstructing lesion
- tracheobronchial invasion appears as displacement of the airway (usually the trachea or left mainstem bronchus) as a result of mass effect by the oesophageal tumour
- aortic invasion
- fistula formation to trachea (5-10%), bronchi or mediastinum: can be either due to direct tumour progression or iatrogenic effects (e.g. radiation therapy)
- oesophageal perforation
Treatment and prognosis
The 5 yr mortality depends on the stage of the tumour. Unfortunately, most cases present with regional or distant metastatic disease (30% and 40%, respectively.
- localized disease: ~39% 5yr survival
- distant metastatic disease: ~4% 5yr survival
Endoscopic mucosal resection, without or with localized ablation is an option for localized (T1a) disease. These epithelial tumors are usually <2 cm, asymptomatic, and noncircumferential.
For T1b tumours and above, surgical options include:
- Ivor-Lewis procedure
- palliative colonic interposition
Differential diagnosis
Imaging differential considerations include:
- benign tumours of oesophagus
- non malignant conditions (e.g. diffuse inflammation)

In many parts of the country, fall is the big time for senior portraits --but here in Dallas, it's pretty warm in the fall and then all of a sudden it's the holiday.! So, what usually happens is April arrives and high school seniors wake up and freak out because they haven't made any plans to have their portraits done. They don't want the lame announcement cards they sell at school but what can the do? It's too late to have any real senior photos made and graduation is around the corner. So here's your reminder. The weather is finally getting better and it's time to pick a date. Late afternoons work great --the light is nice and you don't even have to get out of bed early. In fact, we do a lot of portrait sessions after school. Thank you, Daylight Savings Time. We have several session options to choose from, including the Quick and Easy session which is a short session for just a little bit of cash. Call us today! Our hair and makeup artists are standing by. If you haven't visited our Seniors website, be sure and check out TERESA BERG SENIORS and make a plan.
Our spring DOG SHOTS workshop is scheduled for Sunday, April 12th. This basic one day workshop is perfect for people who love pets but are still learning to love their cameras! We explore the manual settings and why they're so important --and talk about lenses and which lens is the best for which type of shot. This is our beginner workshop and it's a long, full day of fun. Starting in our studio we talk about camera settings and using natural light indoors -- then we move outdoors to the nearby park and set up a variety of shots with live dog models so you get to make beautiful quality pet portraits with YOUR equipment and a professional nearby to guide you.We limit this class to 10 people, so don't delay! Sign up by calling the studio at 972-250-2415. Use a credit or debit card or paypal -- or if you're local, send us a check! Your class fee of $295 is non-refundable, and lunch is included.
Things heat up around here for Valentine's Day! We pump up the estrogen levels and have two days of hair styling, make up artistry and sexy photography -- all in honor of the day of love. I don't mind telling you there are some VERY LUCKY men in Dallas opening some gorgeous albums, coffee table books and custom image boxes every year. And all because we get the great people from the Johnny Rodgriguez Salon over here to work their magic before we shoot. Everyone looks and feels gorgeous so if you're celebrating a birthday, a weight loss, an anniversary (or a divorce!) or you just want a fantastic gift he'll never forget --call us now and book your session. The $250 fee includes hair and makeup and your thirty minute photo session (add an extra 30 minutes of shooting for $100, but you must tell us when you're booking so we can schedule appropriately). We'll get credit card information over the phone when you book and send you a list of suggestions on what to bring. Thirty minutes is usually enough for 2-3 outfits and tons of fun. You'll come back to the studio a few days later to make your selections and place your order. Prints start at $50, and we have a whole list of fun ways to surprise your Valentine.
It's hard to imagine, but the cute little faces in our 2015 Tiny Dog Calendar are working hard -- to help save more adoptable dogs! Every purchase helps us support local Dallas area animal rescue programs like Operation Kindness and the Legacy Humane Society. Each calendar is 5x10" --the perfect size for your favorite dog lover's stocking--or a co-workers cubicle. Order yours from our Etsy shop.

5 Things to Do on April 1
Happy Monday, Mama! Here are 5 things to wean you off the weekend, from an important announcement from the White House to a maternity jeans recall you need to know about.
3. Note that ALL maternity pants have been recalled due to the fact that they become sheer by your third trimester.
4. See a fridge from a picky eater's perspective (new studies show that toddlers believe all food is haunted):

Would you dress like a people of WALMART creature...EDIT IN RED
I can't fit into mine anymore lol. I am sure it wouldn't get past my thighs ha ha! I wear stretchy pants. It is getting to hot for the sweats now.
Quoting proudmommy690:
mine are thick too! and stretchy lol. heck being pregnant is more of a reason to be comfy in pjs lol...
Quoting champagne_rose:
Well, the ones I have are the thicker material. Maybe the lighter pants wouldn't look so bad. I am pregnant and I wear pants that stretch at the moment.
Quoting proudmommy690:
my "pj's" consist of some kind of *mens* pj pants and a tshirt

This review summarizes recent advances in microflow photochemical technologies and transformations. The portfolio of reactions comprises homogeneous and heterogeneous types, among them photoadditions, photorearrangements, photoreductions, photodecarboxylations, photooxygenations and photochlorinations. While microflow photochemistry is most commonly employed as a micro-scale synthesis tool, scale-up and technical production processes have already been developed.Keywords:

"Oi! @brooklynvegan gig was a riot! Met new fans who said my singing sounded like DirtyProjectors guy and Michael Buble, respectively!?!" - Sondre Lerche
Sondre Lerche & JBM share (a manager and) a bill at City Winery in NYC tonight (3/22). Tickets are still on sale. Before SXSW, Sondre played a NYC-area show at Maxwell's in Hoboken (JBM was supposed to open that show, but instead went on tour with Rogue Wave - something he'll do again in April).
Both Sondre and JBM were in Austin for SXSW, and one of Sondre's shows was the BrooklynVegan/DailyMotion day party at Club DeVille where the pictures in this post are from. Later in the week Sondre took part in the Big Star tribute at Antone's, and before that he paid tribute to Alex Chilton in a small way at the BV show too. That video segment is below with all dates and more pictures from the party (and a video of JBM at another Texas show too)...

Blizzard is very custom-tech driven. I don't have links to the articles, but I remember seeing that they develop thousands of custom shaders per game for both multiplatform compatibility and backwards compatibility.
Multiplatform support isn't something new. Plenty of software supports Linux, Mac OS, and Windows. As was mentioned above, the important part ...
Direct3D drivers on Windows are ridiculously optimized, sometimes for specific games, and developed by individual hardware vendors.
Apple's OpenGL drivers are written and maintained (AFAIK) by Apple, and are intended for "general" OS use, compositing the UI and whatnot. There's no so much optimization for gaming and high-performance throughput.
Basically, ...
If you want to develop native games for 360/PS3, there is no alternative to getting a Devkit.
Consoles are more than just a CPU. It's graphics card, OS, memory, File-System, SDKs and a lot more. If your idea is to port later, thats not gonna work as easy as getting a more less similar machine in terms of its specs. The entire environment is different to a ...
While I won't discount the optimization that Microsoft may have put into Windows and/or DirectX, I strongly believe that most programs perform better on Windows simply because that's what the developers focus on (that's where the money is). They make design decisions with Windows in mind, and then later try to make it work in other OSs (Mac, Linux, etc.). ...
As others have mentioned, on OS X (and Linux), OpenGL is the only game in town for hardware-accelerated graphics. So the question really comes down to: why do developers use Direct3D instead of OpenGL on Windows?
One possible reason, as suggested in the comments, is that they started out as a Windows-only project and later decided to add OS X / Linux ...
Sleep calls are an extremely bad way of controlling framerate. Use them to reduce CPU usage for sure, but don't use them to control framerate.
usleep(1000 * 15), a 15-millisecond pause (~67 FPS, in theory)
No, it's not.
First of all, see the documentation for usleep:
The actual time slept may be longer, due to system latencies and possible ...
There are graphic engines out there (take Ogre3D as an example) that provide an abstract layer on top of DirectX and OpenGL. So as a developer you just use the Framework and don't have to care much about the underlying GPU-API. Some special things like shaders may have to be written in HLSL and GLSL but there are also higher level shader languages that can ...
One of the most common ways to render into another application's GL or D3D rendering context is to hook the creation of the context or device objects in that application's process. This will let you gain access to the returned context or device pointer. You can then hook the actual rendering invocation methods (for example, Present() in D3D) and inject your ...
Xcode can indeed be used to create games. You can do anything a Mac/iOS device is capable of by programming in Xcode.
I think you should focus on what part of the project you want to focus on. As you state you are a brand new Objective-C programmer (welcome). In my opinion it would be quite a mouth full to try and just into Objective-C programming whilst ...
OpenGL Versions
OpenGL Versions supported depends on two factors on OS X:
OS Version (10.7, 10.6, 10.5 ...)
GPUs or drivers
But at least, you can use OpenGL 2.1 on every recent mac.
Note: OpenGL is the desktop version, and OpenGL ES is the mobile one. Don't use ES on desktop platforms.
Ps: if you have a GMA 950 Card (Intel chipset), you should have ...
A singleton for your main engine class is perfectly normal.
It's even quite acceptable to have one singleton for each of your game's major systems, like graphics and input. I personally prefer a single Engine singleton with all systems as members of that object, but really there's very little difference.
A singleton can just be a static global object, ...
Are you positive that you've set GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE for each individual texture? This is a part of individual texture state and it defaults to GL_REPEAT, so this needs to be done after binding with glBindTexture. I realize in the original post you literally say that you set it for each texture, but I'm wondering what the code actually looks like?
For example:
If you'd like to learn Objective-C, I suggest you have a look at cocos2d. It's an open-source 2d engine (written in Objective-C) that allows you to write games for iOS or Mac OS using XCode.
It's not as easy to create games with as with a package like Unity, but there are lots of tutorials (and even books) for cocos2d to be found. A good place to start ...
Xbox 360 controllers do not conform to USB HID game controller standards. Even Windows computers require installation of a special, custom driver in order to use them.
Mac computers do not ship with support for Xbox 360 controllers (though they do ship with native support for USB HID game controllers). To use one, you'll need to install a driver for it. ...
It is highly not recommended to make an iPad game without a device.
The simulator is decent, but some things cannot be tested properly on it. For example, In App Purchases cannot be tested without a device. And believe me, you want to test those things.
You also won't get much of an idea of its performance on the simulator since it may run much faster or ...
Absolutely! XCode is the standard programming IDE for the Mac and iOS. So if your goal is making a game for iOS, you will probably be using XCode along with a few other helping technologies of your choice (e.g. OpenGL ES 2.0).
But since you mentioned game engines I'd also recommend you to use one, since they'll save you a lot of time and effort:
If you ...
For lighting to work, every vertex needs a normal. What seems to be the case right now is that all of your vertices have the same normal, which is why all the faces are getting the same amount of light.
To calculate the normal for a triangle, take the cross-product using two of its sides and normalize it. However, this will produce hard edges, which are ...
Looking at the art assets in your github I think I know what the problem is.
What you need is alpha blending. Save your sprites with an alpha channel (or convert the background to zero alpha when loading the textures).
Set up blend function like this:
glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
That tells OpenGL to blend (mix) the pixel data ...
The main problem with static and global objects in C++ is that they are created before the application's entry point (i.e. main), but their constructors are called in a completely unpredictable order. The same is true for their destructors, at the end of the application. This is clearly a problem because often we will have objects that depend on each other, ...
Heres your problem notice I comment out the surface = SDL_Get... it was giving some weird results. Also you forgot to create the OpenGL context. Let me know if you have any other issues.
SDLWindow::SDLWindow(int width, int height, double axisLen, const std::string &caption)
So, an hour or so of fiddling and trying different libraries, and it seems OIS (and SDL) just recognises the controller as a joystick and provides me with everything I need.
If you install OIS from the link above, and make/run the 'ConsoleTest' project, you can see the output from the controller in the debug window.
Additionally, here's enums i've been ...
This is a general post about why static classes cause you more trouble than they are worth. And this includes singleton classes which are just a fancy way of doing the same thing that avoids construction order problems. No advice fits all cases, so take it as advice, not as an instruction that it is always better to do it this way.
In general code shouldn't ...
There are a few options available to you:
Buy a Mac: This is the most full-proof, but probably the most expensive. If you can figure out what exactly you need (eg. Lion vs. Leopard), you can probably save some of the cost by buying something that's not latest-and-greatest, but "good enough" for development.
Run a Mac VM: This is usually illegal (depending ...
Found it! The FBX Converter can be downloaded from the FBX Plug-Ins, Converter, and QuickTime Viewer Downloads page. One opened there's an "Add FBX Viewer" button which can display FBX contents and animations.
Using the latest SFML from github (2.1 should also work but I didn't test with it) you can listen for the sf::Event::JoystickConnected and sf::Event::JoystickDisconnected events as described in the SFML Events Tutorial. I've tested the events and they are both fired on Mac and Windows.
A sample program to test this would look like:
#include ...
As a fellow Mac user, I'd like to offer an additional factor: the CPU scheduler in OS X is more "fair" than in Windows.
This is sort of a complicated computer science topic, so here's a simple way to think of your CPU scheduler: your processor has to juggle many tasks at once (all your open programs, plus background system processes). It can only actually ...
In order to get on the Xbox you can start out making a PC game using XNA, and if it's good it shouldn't be a big problem to get the right permissions so that you can port it to Xbox 360. If you are on the "a dev kit is probably too expensive" stage, don't even bother considering the PlayStation 3 a potential target platform.
Have you considered using something like Unity 3d? It has the advantage of running on multiple platforms (web/iphone/ipad/andriod/wii/pc/mac and soon ps3 & xbox360).
Here are some resources for Unity 3d,
I don't know if this worth to be an answer but as it's too long to be a comment... here are some informations that might help you.
You should take a look at this small article.
It enumerates 10 rules to write cross-platform C/C++ code. And one idea that particularly pushed me to change my development organization, is that it would be more "optimized" ...

Alfredo Aceves RP SF 2 years ago
Alfredo Aceves said the incident Sunday where he refused to throw at full strength during a live batting practice session was "just miscommunication."
"It was just miscommunication. That's all it was," Aceves said. "I apologized for that and now we're on track." Red Sox manager John Farrell said Aceves "had a very good day" Wednesday and was "focused." Rumors had surfaced that Boston was growing tired of Aceves' antics and considering releasing him, but it appears all is well for now.

Black Tooth earns several medals this summer
Date posted: July 30, 2013
SHERIDAN — In anticipation of a busy fall, filled with beer festivals across Wyoming, the co-owners of the Sheridan-based Black Tooth Brewing Company recently announced a slate of awards bestowed on the brewery since the summer began.
The company received a total of five medals — three golds and two silvers — at the recent North American Beer Awards in Idaho Falls, Idaho.
Additionally, the brewery won two gold medals at the United States Open Beer Championship in Atlanta.
"It's nice to be recognized by your peers," brewery co-owner Tim Barnes said. "All these competitions are judged by other brewers and other qualified judges."
In addition to the recent accolades, the company has recently begun canning its beer for sale in six-packs.
Barnes said response to the beer's newfound portability has been overwhelmingly positive.
In addition to planning for upcoming festivals, including the Sheridan County Chamber of Commerce Brewfest on Sept. 7, managers at The Black Tooth Brewing Company are slated to submit beers to the Great American Beer Festival in October.
