Dear fellow hunters. To be able to fly luxury for budget prices..... book Lufthansa and ask for AIRBUS 380. Doesn't matter were you get your seat.... just perfect. ( Of cause this means that any airline with AIURBUS 380 is okay ) Michael
I'll agree with the suggestion of Lufthansa, they are a first rate company and make flying with an American carrier a huge disappointment.
Can you describe the seating style and arrangments in detail on the 380, see them at Jo'burg but have never been on one
hmmmm. I toured one at the Paris Air Show a couple of years ago. Bussiness and first on the upper deck are very nice, but that lower deck economy seating looks like one of those sci-fi movies where the passengers are crammed in by the hundreds for cyrogenic interstellar travel. Or maybe they should include oars to create the classic galley slave look. And I can't imagine hitting the immigration line when that thing disgorges simultaneously half a thousand of my new best friends!
AIRBUS 380 Hi Cliffy. Check You Tube and IE." Inside Airbus A380 ". This aeroplane is developed in 2000, for future.... ALL other aeroplanes are developed 1960-70..... No need to comment any more..... Book it and enjoy the future ! Michael

Until recently,[when?] there were no legal nude beaches in Queensland. However, following a successful appeal from Ken Wenzel, a Sunshine Coast artist and nudist, the Queensland Summary Offences Act 2005 has been ruled not to apply to licensed free beaches.[clarification needed] The Queensland Labor state government and the Sunshine Coast Regional Council have said that they will now consider any approaches for legal nude beaches in Queensland.
Current quasi-legal beaches are:
- Alexandria Bay (known as "A Bay") near Noosa is a popular spot with nudists and arguably the most tolerated nude beach.[2]
- Bribie Island - Remote beaches on Bribie were once popular with nudists, though Moreton Bay rangers as well as police now regularly patrol this remote island.
South Australia[edit]
The following beaches in South Australia are used by nudists:
- Maslin Beach [3]
- Ocean Beach near Robe
- Pelican Point, Barmera
- Murrippi Beach, near Whyalla
In Tasmania nudists use the following beaches:
- Bakers Beach (not Legal, be discreet)
Victoria has more than 2,000 kilometres (1,200 mi) of coastline with hundreds of beaches.[4] Four of those beaches are legal clothes-optional beaches:[5]
- Sunnyside North Beach, Mount Eliza, Port Philip Bay on the Mornington Peninsula

- Public nudity is illegal in Fiji, but nude sunbathing is legal on resorts.[11]
French Polynesia[edit]
- Toplessness is allowed here, unlike most parts of the South Pacific, even though there are no official nudist beaches. Bottomlessness is usually seen in private or hard-to-find beaches, but it can still happen in public beaches.[12]

Abstract: | Unlike basic sciences, scientific research in advanced technologies aims to explain, predict, and (mathematically) describe not phenomena in nature, but phenomena in technological artefacts, thereby producing knowledge that is utilized in technological design. This article first explains why the covering-law view of applying science is inadequate for characterizing this research practice. Instead, the covering-law approach and causal explanation are integrated in this practice. Ludwig Prandtl's approach to concrete fluid flows is used as an example of scientific research in the engineering sciences. A methodology of distinguishing between regions in space and/or phases in time that show distinct physical behaviours is specific to this research practice. Accordingly, two types of models specific to the engineering sciences are introduced. The diagrammatic model represents the causal explanation of physical behaviour in distinct spatial regions or time phases; the nomo-mathematical model represents the phenomenon in terms of a set of mathematically formulated laws. |

Re: Full or fin keel?
Still, there have been modifications applied to full keel boats that improved function such as those using Henry Sheel's work or the keels with a gap in the middle which I recall were done by an englishman who's name escapes me. Unlike the Brewer's bite or cutaway forefoot the basic integrity of the design element was intact. In some respects it's unfortunate improving full keels was not further pursued.One can think of a vessel employing what we now know about attached flow/parasitic drag, tip vortexes but still having an true full keel with attached rudder. With current materials might be easier to build a very strong boat with little deformation from rig loads and reasonably shoal draft given the basic form.

dc.description.abstract | Introduction: Tyrosine kinases are key mediators of multiple signaling pathways implicated in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We previously demonstrated that imatinib mesylate--a Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved, antineoplastic drug that potently inhibits the tyrosine kinases Abl, c-Kit, platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR), and c-Fms--ameliorates murine autoimmune arthritis. However, which of the imatinib-targeted kinases is the principal culprit in disease pathogenesis remains unknown. Here we examine the role of c-Fms in autoimmune arthritis. Methods: We tested the therapeutic efficacy of orally administered imatinib or GW2580, a small molecule that specifically inhibits c-Fms, in three mouse models of RA: collagen-induced arthritis (CIA), anti-collagen antibody-induced arthritis (CAIA), and K/BxN serum transfer-induced arthritis (K/BxN). Efficacy was evaluated by visual scoring of arthritis severity, paw thickness measurements, and histological analysis. We assessed the in vivo effects of imatinib and GW2580 on macrophage infiltration of synovial joints in CIA, and their in vitro effects on macrophage and osteoclast differentiation, and on osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. Further, we determined the effects of imatinib and GW2580 on the ability of macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF; the ligand for c-Fms) to prime bone marrow-derived macrophages to produce tumor necrosis factor (TNF) upon subsequent Fc receptor ligation. Finally, we measured M-CSF levels in synovial fluid from patients with RA, osteoarthritis (OA), or psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and levels of total and phosphorylated c-Fms in synovial tissue from patients with RA. Results: GW2580 was as efficacious as imatinib in reducing arthritis severity in CIA, CAIA, and K/BxN models of RA. Specific inhibition of c-Fms abrogated (i) infiltration of macrophages into synovial joints of arthritic mice; (ii) differentiation of monocytes into macrophages and osteoclasts; (iii) osteoclast-mediated bone resorption; and (iv) priming of macrophages to produce TNF upon Fc receptor stimulation, an important trigger of synovitis in RA. Expression and activation of c-Fms in RA synovium were high, and levels of M-CSF were higher in RA synovial fluid than in OA or PsA synovial fluid. Conclusions: These results suggest that c-Fms plays a central role in the pathogenesis of RA by mediating the differentiation and priming of monocyte lineage cells. Therapeutic targeting of c-Fms could provide benefit in RA. | en_US |

Accelerator Pedal Sensor Reviews - 2004 Chevrolet Trailblazer
Standard Motor Products | APS137
I received this accelerator pedal a week after the order was placed. It was an exact match for the part I was replacing. Perfect fit and so far it's working as expected!
I never used Partsgeek before but I was amazed by the selection of parts for my vehicle; it's a 10 year old truck and parts are getting tough to come by. The prices on the website are very competitive and fair.
If I need anything else for my truck I am coming back here.

With aging, a woman's breasts lose fat, tissue, and mammary glands. This causes a reduction in the size and firmness of the breasts. Many of these changes are due to the decrease of in the body's production of estrogen that occurs at menopause. Without estrogen, the gland tissue shrinks making the breasts smaller and less full. The connective tissue that support that support the breasts dries out so the breasts sag.
Changes also occur to in the nipple. The area surrounding the nipple (the areola) becomes smaller and may nearly disappear and the nipple may turn in slightly.
Lumps are common around the time of menopause. These are often noncancerous cysts. However, if you notice a lump, make an appointment with your health care provider because breast cancer risk increases with age. Women should be aware of the benefits and limitations of breast self-exams. These exams do not always pick up early stages of breast cancer. Women should talk to their health care providers about mammograms.

Internation Equity and Human DevelopmentAnthony C. InfantiUniversity of Pittsburgh - School of Law October 4, 2011 TAX LAW AND DEVELOPMENT, Miranda Stewart, Yariv Brauner, eds., Edward Elgar Publishing, 2012 U. of Pittsburgh Legal Studies Research Paper No. 2011-26 Abstract: In their 1972 essay "Inter-nation Equity," Richard and Peggy Musgrave added a new dimension to discussions of tax equity by viewing the concept through an international lens. In this chapter written for a collection of essays on tax law and development, I add a new dimension to the Musgraves' discussion of tax equity by laying a critical lens over their international lens and considering how tax equity might further human development. In this chapter, I argue that it is time to shed the unbending focus on the economic dimension of people and the tax "exceptionalism" that unduly constrain both the domestic tax equity and internation equity debates. In particular, we must recognize that the internation equity debate is situated within a larger foreign policy and development context. This is important because the larger debate over development is already undergoing a transformation from a narrow focus on economic growth to a wider focus on human development. To spur a similar transformation in the international tax area, I offer some initial thoughts on how countries might reform their international tax rules to embrace a wider focus on human development. I then describe the advantages of expanding the internation equity debate to address both economic and noneconomic lines of difference among nations in an effort to encourage all countries to advance human development, especially for the most vulnerable among us.
