Research Progress of Chinese Herbal Medicine Radix isatidis (Banlangen).
Summary of "Research Progress of Chinese Herbal Medicine Radix isatidis (Banlangen)."
Radix isatidis (R. isatidis) (Banlangen) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) famous for its broad antiviral activity. Its clinical medical history spans several thousands of years in China. Many scientists and scholars have conducted systematic research on this herb from its pharmacognosy to pharmaceuticals, especially in China. Through our research and literature reports, we inferred that the antiviral activity of R. isatidis mostly depended on the water-soluble part, including amino acids, IRPS, nucleosides, and sulfur-containing alkaloids. By playing a role in directly killing pathogenic viruses or regulating the immune system to enhance anti-virus ability, R. isatidis's biological activities mostly depend on the synergistic effect of its multiple components. This article aims to expand understanding of R. isatidis in the following aspects including medicinal resources, chemical constituents, pharmacological activities, clinical applications, and separation and analytical technologies.

A barrage of global deal news is a tailwind for U.S. traded exchange-traded funds that have concentrated bets in the takeout targets on an otherwise flat day for the market.
First up, medical testing firm Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings (LH) said it plans to buy research firm Covance Inc. (CVD) for about $6.1 billion in cash and stock. Covance shoots up 26%, while LabCorp sinks 6.3%.
The deal is a mixed blessing for the $563 million iShares U.S. Healthcare Providers ETF (IHF); Covance makes up a 1.6% holding in the ETF, the largest of any ETFs. But the IHF also has more than 2% stake in LabCorp, capping the ETF's 0.4% gain.
Meanwhile, the Market Vectors Biotech ETF (BBH), with a 1.6% weight in Covance, adds 0.6%.
The First Trust Dow Jones Internet Index ETF (FDN) is the biggest beneficiary of the move by French advertising company Publicis Groupe SA to purchase U.S. based Sapient Corp. (SAPE), which jumps 42%.
FDN, which has a 1.2% weight in Sapient, adds 0.6%.
The Wall Street Journal's Inti Landauro and Ruth Bender report that Publicis' move to acquire Boston-based Sapient "will boost the company's exposure in the U.S. and in digital advertising, which is becoming increasingly dominated by data and technology."
ETFs that hold outsize stakes Oi SA are holding up better than broader Brazilian stock ETFs after Luxembourg's Altice SA reportedly made the company an $8.8 billion offer for its PT Portugal assets.
Shares of Oi SA (OIBR4) jumped 8.5% in Sao Paulo.
The help move the needle on the EGShares Brazil Infrastructure ETF (BRXX) holds 4.6% worth of the Oi SA stock. The First Trust Brazil AlphaDex Fund (FBZ), which carries a 2.74% weight in Oi SA' stock.
By comparison, the iShares MSCI Brazil Capped ETF (EWZ) has a 0.46% weight in the stock.
The Global X Brazil Mid Cap ETF (BRAZ) owns a 2.1% weight in the U.S.-traded shares of Oi SA, which trade under the ticker OIBR.
Close readers of this blog will recall Credit Suisse's (CS) compelling data on spinoffs: After a year, the stocks of companies that are spun off by a parent beat the S&P 500 by an average of more than 13% over the last seventeen years. The parent does well, too: The advantage versus the benchmark is nearly 10%.
Our colleague Michael Santoli revisits the issue in his column over the weekend ahead of Nacco Industries' (NC) upcoming spinoff of forklift maker Hyster-Yale Materials Handling. Here's Santoli:
The Bloomberg Spinoff Index is up more than 30% so far this year and the Guggenheim Spin-Off exchange-traded fund (ticker: CSD) has climbed 19%. As noted in a favorable item on companies cut loose by their parent here March 5, the ETF is a bit flawed because it doesn't pick up spinoffs until they have been independently trading for six months, after which they've often been discovered and bid up.
In a week, shareholders of the $1 billion market-value mini-conglomerate Nacco Industries (NC) will receive shares in forklift maker Hyster-Yale Materials Handling, which represents the majority of Nacco's value. The remainder of Nacco will continue to own a coal producer, the Hamilton Beach small-appliance division, and the Kitchen Collection gourmet retailer.
Despite this collection of familiar brands, the family-controlled Nacco is only minimally covered by Wall Street. Nacco shareholders of record as of Sept. 25 will receive a share of Hyster-Yale for each Nacco share owned, and both will begin trading separately Oct. 1. Joe Cornell, analyst at Spin-Off Advisors in Chicago, is bullish on Hyster-Yale, in part because the spin will allow it to participate in industry consolidation.
Using sober assumptions and comparable-company valuations as a guide produces a sum-of-parts value for Nacco following the spin at between $140 and $165 a share, up from Nacco's Friday closing level of $112.48.
As exchange-traded funds and other investing vehicles have ballooned in number, the task of figuring out what works well and what doesn't has only gotten harder.

Great Breath-busters, but pricey
posted 6 years ago
With all the recent pet food scares, I am still a bit worried about using these, but we still have a bag left over from a few months ago. These really do help with dog breath, even though they are more pricey than I would like. My dog loves these, and it is a great way to keep her mouth healthy when we don't have a free moment to brush her teeth.
Pros: no more stinky breath
Cons: pricey, made in China

Football Helmets Not Always Fitted Properly
By Charnicia E. Huggins
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) – High school football players may run a lower risk of sustaining a head injury if their helmets are fitted by certified athletic trainers rather than coaches or other individuals, new study findings suggest.
"While professional and college teams have people trained in how to properly fit an athlete with a helmet, most high school and youth programs do not," study co-author Dr. Eugene Hong, of Drexel University College of Medicine in Philadelphia, said in a statement.
Athletic trainers, who receive textbook training on proper helmet fitting techniques, appear to be more likely to secure the players' helmets properly than are coaches, who may have not received such training.
Proper fitting helmets may not prevent all concussions, Hong told Reuters Health, but "if we can improve even a tiny bit, then I'll feel good about that as a professional," he said.
Each year, over one million students participate in high school football. These players experience from 30,000 to as many as 250,000 concussions annually in this country alone, according to Hong. While little is known about the best way to treat a concussion, "prevention of concussion is really the best treatment," Hong said.
A concussion occurs when a jolt to the head jostles the brain within the skull, sometimes tearing nerve fibers, and leading to symptoms such as headache, dizziness, disorientation or nausea within minutes or hours afterwards. Longer-term problems, which may appear days or weeks after the brain injury, include chronic headache, poor concentration, memory loss and sleep disturbances.
In the current study, Hong and co-author Dr. Tracey Covassin of Michigan State University, explored helmet fitting techniques and concussions among high school athletes. They analyzed responses from 289 surveys of directors of athletics from Pennsylvania and New Jersey high schools.
A total 286 concussions were reported among 22,888 varsity, junior, and freshman football players — 3.5 injuries per 100 players — during the 2001 season, Hong and Covassin report.
On most teams (43.4 percent), helmets were fitted by high school coaches, while 23.6 percent were fitted by athletic trainers, 21.2 percent were fitted by both coaches and athletic trainers, and 11.8 percent by other individuals.
Coaches did "a good job" of fitting helmets, but they did not use proper fitting techniques as frequently as the certified athletic trainers, according to Hong.
In roughly one out of four (25.5 percent) instances, for example, they failed to fit players' facemasks properly, two inches away from the nose. Also, in 17.5 percent of cases they did not place helmets one inch above player's eyebrows, and 17.5 percent of the time they didn't place the helmet's chin straps an equal distance apart.
"Certified athletic trainers trained in proper fitting were employing more techniques to fit helmets than coaches were," Hong said.
Most of the high schools surveyed employed certified athletic trainers but the majority of them did not use these professionals to fit helmets on their football players, Hong said.
In light of this, Hong advised that parents, coaches and other school officials shouldn't rush to the Internet or other sources to discover the proper fitting techniques for helmets, but rather that they "utilize the resources they already have in their school districts."
Hong and Covassin's current findings, presented recently during the annual meeting of the American College of Sports Medicine, will be published in an upcoming issue of the ACSM's journal, Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise.

Manchester United legend Paddy Crerand has warned they face a banana skin against Norwich City.
He has warned that if the Reds are not completely on the ball on Saturday, Paul Lambert's improving Canaries could spring another surprise.
"The Premier League is a top-class football league and if you do anything daft you're going to get punished," Crerand told ManUtd.com. "It's the same in Europe – you need 100% concentration all the time.
"I never thought for one minute that Basel would get a result at Old Trafford, never mind score three goals. So you have to be alive all the time.
"Norwich are a young team who've come up to the Premier League and we saw the surprises Blackpool produced last season. They beat Sunderland last time out so they'll be confident.
"You can't win every game at home, no matter how well you're playing, but I think United should get the points because we're under a little bit of pressure from Manchester City.
"Sir Alex will make changes – he used a few experienced players against Basel and it'll be interesting to see who's fit for this weekend."

By Andrew Wake: In what was supposed to be his toughest test Boltons Amir Khan retained his Commonwealth lightweight title by outclassing and outboxing Australia based Guyanan Gairy St.Clair on way to a unanimous decision victory, 120 108 on all cards.
The Olympic silver medallist did have to get his way through bursts from the challenger but on the whole he dominated proceedings from bell to bell and will now hope to contest his first world title later in the year.
Khan was cautious in the opening frame as he worked behind an authoritative jab that pieced St. Clairs peek a boo guard on several occasions..
The action picked up half way through the third as Khan let his hands go and had the crowd standing on their feet. St. Clair, who was a world champion at super-featherweight less than 18 month ago, showed that he has a world class defence by covering up and absorbing Khans flashy combinations on his gloves and arms.
St.Clair, who is nicknamed Superman, attacked well in the fourth but it was still the defending champion that did the more eye catching work and again discouraged the Guyanan with his blurring hand speed.
The following round took a similar trend but, then in sixth round, St.Clair landed a clubbing right that, added to the cute work hed already done, swung a close round in his favour for the first time - the judges, however, did not agree.
In the seventh and eighth it was all Khan again as he bloodied St.Clairs nose and kept him at bay by boxing beautifully from range. Every so often Khan would throw caution to the wind and come forward, look to land yet more blistering combinations but still didnt land anything to suggest he could become the first man to halt the battle tested former world titlist.
The best round of the fight was observed in the ninth as both combatants got off strings of punches. Khan backed St.Clair up with yet another dazzling flurry but the challenger, who is 33 years old today, fired back with some stinging blows to the champions body.
St.Clair did a strange little dance at the start of the tenth that said Hey, look at me. Ive still got plenty in the tank. And it was true, despite his advanced years and being in his 46th professional bout, it was clear that the little Aussie based fighter was superbly conditioned and, having lost every round (except one in my book), still felt he was in the fight. Amir had other ideas though and continued to keep the challenger away with thumping jabs.
Knowing he needed a knockout the challenger came out looking to score in the final round but found it almost impossible to get on the inside and the Bolton boy wonder continued to deftly outbox him.
21 year old Amir will now turn his attention to a possible world title tilt as he aims to outdo Prince Naseem Hamed by becoming Britains youngest ever world champion. As stated previously, I still have my reservations as to whether the young stylist is ready for the big names of the division like Juan Diaz and his namesake David yet but it seems to be what Khan is gunning for.
His most likely route to world honours should be through the WBO as it appears likely that the Puerto Rican based sanctioning body will strip their champion Juan Diaz and install big punching Aussie, and current interim title holder, Michael Katsidis as their main man. Personally, though, Im still not sure if Amir is ready even for Katsidis and would rather see him in against someone like British rival Jon Thaxton or European kingpin Yuri Romanov.
Michael Jennings successfully negotiated the first defence of his WBU welterweight title by stopping Crawleys Ross The Boss Minter, son of former world middleweight champion Alan, in the ninth round of what had been an excellent contest.
Jennings, known as The Lurcher appeared to have Minters number as early as the first round as he tagged the challenger with a lead right that forced his legs to buckle and appear to touch down. Minter put his arms up to suggest he wasnt hurt and referee Micky Vann allowed the action to continue without a count. Jennings swarmed around his opponent like an angry wasp looking to sting again for the rest of the round but in the final seconds Minter, whose head had by now cleared, got off some decent shots of his own.
Minter came out full of intent in the third and put together a flashy flurry but the dominance was short lived as the session was controlled again by Jennings work from distance. As had happened in the previous two rounds, Minter finished well but by then it was too late to swing the round in his direction on my card.
With ten seconds remaining the fourth, a furious right hand from the champion detonated on the side of Minters head and his legs dipped again. Minter, clearly dazed, throw a couple of hopeful punches but Jennings landed again with a right handed uppercut and the challenger found himself on the canvas.
The Boss, by now cut on his forehead and on his ear had a better fifth and seemed to be gaining in confidence as he landed with some decent work on the inside but on the whole it was still Jennings who was doing the cleaner work.
Tides turned briefly in the seventh stanza as Minter drew the champion into fighting his fight and began closing the gap on the cards. The eighth appeared to be following suit until in the final ten seconds the champion from Chorley caught Minter with a sweeping left hook and seemingly had him out on his feet. Minter was saved by the bell.
Jennings, who moves to 32 1 (15), concluded business at the end of the ninth when a stunning left hook put Minter on his back. The challenger did rise after taking an eight count but when a couple more shots were landed, Minters trainer Johnny Eames did the right thing and threw the towel in.
Minter, who was also stopped in his last outing by Freddy Curiel, falls to 17 3 (8).
Liverpools gangly framed Derry Matthews, the 2007 boxing writers young fighter of the year, scored an impressive first round stoppage of Nikoloz Berktsashvili of Georgia and has now set his sights at a shot at one of the 126 pound divisions big guns.
24 year old Derry, the reigning WBU featherweight champion, came out swinging and looked like he couldnt miss as he landed several hard to rights to Berktsashvilis head and body.
With 1.14 to go in the opening frame Matthews connected a crisp left-right to the Georgians midsection, forcing him to take a knee. Berktsashvili was up at the count of eight but Matthews was sensed victory was in sight and backed him up against the ropes before closing the show with hard left hook to the body. The fight was scheduled for eight rounds and was a non title affair.
Speaking about his quick win Matthews, who now moves to 20 0 with 11 kos, told ITV You dont get paid for overtime The combination I hit him with Id been working on George and Danny. I was fully focused on the fight.
I proved Im the best featherweight out there at the moment so bring more fights on for me. I hope Frank Warren gets more fights and I hope one of them will be at the Liverpool Arena.
He added Ive got my eye set on the WBO title. Im fully focused on Steve Luevano. I take each fight as they come and Im just hoping Frank Warren can get me that WBO shot.
West Hams Matthew Marsh, kitted out in the Hammers famous claret and blue, put last Octobers stoppage loss to Derry Matthews behind him by blasting out Ajibu Salum of Tanzania in the 1st round. It was the first knockout Marsh has recorded in his professional career.
Brother Liam, Ryan and David Walsh all made successful debuts by stopping their opponents early.
Dagenhams former world featherweight title challenger Nicky Cook made a successful return after eight months out by stopping Kirkor Kirkorov in the second round. Cooks record now reads as 28 wins with 16 KOs against a solitary defeat.

This recipe is from Season 1 of 5 Ingredient Fix
Sift the salt and the flour into a large bowl. Add half the milk and all the eggs into the flour mixture and whisk until smooth. Whisk in remaining milk, and then the thyme. Cover; let batter sit at room temperature, for at least 30 minutes, ideally 45 minutes.
Heat oven to 450 degrees F.
Divide the rendered beef fat or oil, 1/4 cup total, between a 12-cup nonstick muffin tin or 12-hole Yorkshire pudding tray. Heat in oven until the fat is almost smoking hot. Place a baking sheet on the bottom rack of the oven to catch any fat drippings - this will help prevent any oven fires!
Uncover batter and whisk one more time. Pour batter into each cup, about 3/4 full and immediately place back into the oven. The batter will sizzle when being poured into the hot fat. Bake in the oven for approximately 20 minutes or until risen and golden brown in color.
Turn oven off and leave puddings in the oven for just 5 more minutes to help set. Remove puddings and serve while hot and puffed.
Cook's note: Olive oil can replace cooking fat if none is available
» Metric Converter
Moscato, Sparkling Whites and Rose are the best wines to pair with Thyme for Yorkshire Pudding.

I am so surprised that so many like this product. I hate everything about it, the packaging is the sliding case which I never liked. The actual product is a very hard powder that is hard to get out and looks so unnatural. I have this in taupe and it still gave me a scouse brow. The brush it comes with is so cheap and feels like plastic, it's very hard but you can get the product out with it. It gets a hard film over it and is just over all awful. I am gonna give mine to my sister I hope that she can use it. She never buys brand names so she will just be happy that it is clinique. I hate this and you could not give it to me much less me buy it again.

CHARCOALED!!!!!! Where has this been all my life?? If you view my account you'll see my obsession with brows, I think brow products are the only reviews I've written. I am very hard to match, as lots of people have some warm undertones in their hair, mine is dark ash blonde/light ash brown and my brows are the same color. For reference, I'm a MAC NW 20-25. I have uneven brows from years of over plucking and need to fill the tails and front of my right brow. I don't care for an overdone brow on myself so these ladies who use the mousses and pomades for very sculpted brows, I'm jealous!However, even if I did like this look on me, I would not be able to use these products because when swatched on me, even the "ash" shades will show too much warmth or fade to auburn. This is a product I overlooked hundreds of times thinking-- no way that's the right color for me. After this recommendation I'm so glad I tried it! I've spent upwards of $30 for a brow pencil in search of my HG with no luck--this was half the price! First impression, gray brow powder in Classic Clinique sliding packaging with mirror inside and crappy brush (don't even waste your time w the brush-- lol). The way I use this product is to place a drop of Urban Decay setting spray by opening the top and touching the dispenser to the top of my hand. I've found a spray is much too much product to waste. I dampen my MAC brow brush in the drop of setting spray and then load the brow powder on the brush very lightly. I feel it gives it more opacity and staying power as the powder dry is very sheer. Even with this extra step, it's so worth it. So very happy with the results!!

I got this in charcoaled because a lot of people on here recommended that shade for asian brows. It was a little too light for me, though, because my eyebrow hairs are pretty thick so they look darker than usual, but I could definitely see it working on someone who had thinner hairs that were sparser, who wanted a more natural look. (The reason i use brow powder is just to fill in the ends) .
I ended up giving it to my mom because the color and pigmentation was a much better fit for her . It's got about a medium amount of pigmentation, which would be good if you are going for the natural look. To me this shade looks straight up gray. I was hoping for more brown in it.
I didn't really like the brush because I thought it was too thick, I think a brush that can make a thinner line would be much better for coloring in the ends of the brows. Also, the bristles felt plasticky and cheap.
Overall, I honestly I don't feel this is anything special. I imagine that there are similar brow powders you could get at the drugstore in the 4-8 dollar range that would work just as well. Nothing really stood out to me about it. It was just medium pigmented gray powder.

I love my Clinique brow shaper in Charcoaled. I have blonde hair, blue eyes and light brown brows. Every pencil I tried would make my brows appear to have a reddish/auburn hue. Yuck! A friend of mine urged me to try this, and in this darker color - and voila, awesome! I have used this product on my brows everyday since late 2007. It is a miracle worker for brows, good staying power, very natural appearance. Will definitely repurchase!

I love this and use it everyday. My brows are really light compared to my hair color and this product does a perfect job of filling them in. It is kind of expensive but I use it everyday and I still haven't made a dent in it. I love the brush, it works perfect for me. It is really hard, which some people don't like, but if it was softer I would end up looking like a clown.

I love this brow powder! I got it in Charcoaled and it matches my black hair flawlessly, with a natural look. I've thick, long brows already, but shape-wise, the brows are not long enough. So i needed a brow product to fill in some gaps and extend my brow for another 1 cm. It was VERY HARD to find a product that matches my existing black, long, and thick brows. Sometimes i envy some ladies who have next-to-none brows.. they don't have to find a product to match their original brows, and draw however they want. Took 1 lippie off because staying power is so so. I've oily skin, uses a primer, and by mid day i need to re-apply. The hard bristle brush the compact comes with is good as a filler brush, but it's impossible to draw/ define a fine, pointy brow tail. I'll find a travel size, slanted brow filler/ liner brush to replace this! As some reviewers have mentioned already, it is not very pigmented. Another way to put it, it's hard to pick up colour/ product w/ a brush. So w/ a soft haired brush, i swipe it back and forth for several times to get enough powder. Don't expect this to be like a eye shadow.

I have this product in Soft Brown. My lashes and hair are very dark but this color works for me, any darker and it would be obvious that I had used brow powder.
I indicated that I would buy this again, however, it's likely that won't happen for a lonnnng time because this stuff lasts forever. I've had mine quite awhile and have only just scratched the surface.
As with all Clinique things, the pigment leaves a bit to be desired. Its powder to pigment ratio is large, but that's what I've come to expect from the brand as a whole. So if this is a problem for you, it's likely that this brow powder won't impress you.
It comes with 2 brushes and they have very stiff bristles, you do have to clean them regularly or the product will cake and build up.
Despite not having super rich pigment, this powder somehow gets the job done. It has staying power and won't come off until you remove it, which is nice.
Overall, it's a pretty decent brow powder.

I love this product so much! It's not really a powder... it's thicker and hard to really explain unless you see it. The little brush it comes with is very handy... it did take me some time to learn how to apply this correctly, but now I have it down to a science. I tap it gently on areas that need filled in, and then I draw out the outside of my eyebrows to make them a little longer. After a week or two, you should clean the brush or a lot of product will get stuck on it and it will make it harder to get a precise application.
I truly believe that those who don't like this product just haven't gotten then hang of using it correctly. It looks very natural and it will not move or fade until I take it off at night with a wipe! I've used this for a year now and at this rate, it might last me over 5 years! HG for sure

I purchased this to replace MAC's discontinued Brow Shader in Charcoal/Maple. I have to say I'm surprised this is so highly rated - it's nowhere near as good as the equivalent MAC product.
Firstly I should explain that though my brows are dark, they are sparse, and I have to do some serious filling-in. I like the full and soft look rather than pencil-thin, so I use Shu Uemura's indispensable Hard Brow Pencil in Seal first, and then finish with brow powder to soften and fill gaps.
MAC Brown Shader in Charcoal/Maple was a staple for me. The Maple was useless (a honey-coloured shimmer for highlighting the brow bone, but way to dark to use for that purpose - makeup companies need to release that sometimes pale people have dark brows!) but the Charcoal was the perfect dark, cool brown. It was highly pigmented, so you only needed a tiny amount of product on your brush, and I often swiped it on my wrist to remove the excess powder before application. Nevertheless, it worked for me.
By contrast, Clinique's Brow Shaper in Charcoaled LOOKS the same colour, but is nowhere near as pigmented. That means you need to get a lot of product on your brush, and apply a lot more product on the brow, which to me looks artificial. The powder in the compact is quite hard, so I have to swirl the brush around a lot to pick up enough product. This is the quality I expect from a dirt-cheap drugstore eyeshadow, not a Clinique brow powder.
The shadow also goes quite hard and shiny in the pan, and the surface needs to be scraped regularly to get rid of the hard, waxy surface that builds up. It doesn't apply quite as smoothly as other products either, so it can look a bit rough and flaky, rather than the smooth and soft effect you want to emulate the effect of actual brow hairs. The brush of course is useless, but I didn't expect much of it. I use Bobbi Brown's Ultra Fine Eyeliner Brush.
I'm not likely to repurchase this. It obviously works for some, but it makes filling brows a laborious process, and I don't like the finish. I may try a Bobbi Brown eye shadow in a cool medium brown shade instead.

Product Details
Anyone who has done electronics repair knows how irritating lost screws can be—if you're lucky, you'll end up with a slightly lighter laptop. If you're unlucky, your $1,000 laptop will be brought to its knees by a $0.05 clip hiding under a table leg. Designed by fixers, for fixers, the 8"x10" Magnetic Project Mat solves this repair problem. Spacious and secure, the mat will catch and hold screws as you pull them out of a device.
Great for cell phone repairs, and you can stop worrying about screw tracking and focus on the cell phone; all the screws will be right where you left them. For laptops with hundreds of screws, use the whole mat as a screw guide and keep careful notes to not get lost.
The included pen is uniquely suited for the Project Mat. It's made by Staedtler, the German pen company that makes top-of-the-line pens and pencils for artists and architects. Their Lumocolor Correctable pen doesn't smear or wipe away like most dry erase markers, so if you brush your hand across the mat while performing a repair, the ink doesn't scratch or smear. However, the eraser tip or a dry cloth wipes the ink away clean.
This mat will enable you to work more smoothly and efficiently. Check out our video, and learn how it can make lost screws a problem of the past.

My Fix
La reparación fue sencillísima, las cosas que compré en iFixit me llegaron rapidísimo! Y las guías me sirvieron perfectamente.
My Advice
Mi consejo es que hay veces que se pueden utilizar los dedos en lugar de herramientas o pinzas, para zafar los conectores, tendrás más control y menos riesgo de romperlos.

My Problem
I had a bicycle accident and I got my iphone 5S crystal scrren and lcd broken
My Fix
Just fine. I had a little problem during the front button reassembly refering to the metal support and a small squared linner but finally i got it the right way.
My Advice
the step-by-step guide was of great help and the video guide too. I would add a little more detail in the video guide maybe adding, for some steps, a detailed photo, slide or diagram as support.
April 12, 2015
My Problem
Replace logic board; replace HDD with SSD; move HDD to optical bay; upgrade RAM.
My Fix
All in all, everything went well. Considering that this was my first repair ever, it took me much longer (4-6 hours) than indicated (40-60 mins). Also, during the repair I had to watch a couple of video tutorials on YouTube, because sometimes the guides alone weren't sufficient.
My Advice
To anyone who's going to do this repair, make sure you also get a 5.5 mm Phillips screwdriver. During the repair I came across a step which required this particular screwdriver, but I didn't have one since it wasn't mentioned on the list of required tools of the logic board replacement guide.
Furthermore, there is a Phillips #1 Screwdriver listed as a required tool for this repair, but I didn't use it since I managed to carry out that particular step using a Phillips #00 Screwdriver instead.
Also, at the end of the logic board replacement guide it says: "To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order". This is slightly misleading, simply because in doing so you would omit a very important step, namely to apply new thermal paste first. Therefore, I would advise to either include or refer to the 'Applying Thermal Paste' guide at the end of the logic board replacement guide.

My Problem
After a hard fall onto a hardwood floor, the screen cracked.
My Fix
Overall it was surprisingly easy, especially because of the easy to follow guides here on ifixit.com. The only part of the repair that was somewhat problematic was getting the multi-connector cable to fit back into the phone when putting it back together. Getting it put back in the correct direction was a bit of a puzzle. But eventually I managed to do it by really examining the pictures. At the end of the repair the phone booted up with no issues at all.
My Advice
I would have payed a little more attention to how the cable that connects everything together was situated and layered before removing it, maybe even taking some photos of it myself from several angles.

My Problem
My iPhone battery usually dies down every year. Last year in January I paid around $90 to get the battery replaced. But when I saw I could do it myself for just the cost of the battery and shipping I went for it.
My Fix
I took my time and followed the video published and I was able to change the battery without any major issues.
The toughest parts are making sure I removed the top screen and then later removing the glue from the battery.
The rest of the repair was fairly easy.
My Advice
I bought the Magnetic Project Mat which I will use for other projects and it really helped me with the small screws.

My Problem
iPhone 5 screen broken completely
My Fix
The steps provided by fixit.com is enough to do. Before going to do repair, please watch the video and follow the steps, only hurdle I faced is re-assemble, especially to attach display assembly ports, screw for ports (3 screws!) took me little more time, because its delicate and my screw driver is not working the way to release the screws in the appropriate place to put back the screws ! Finally done successfully.
One note, you don't need to disconnect battery, Just turn power off your phone... that's enough and buy/get all necessary tools for this
otherwise it's very difficult to do.
Now it's working perfectly, First time right!.
I took photo after the replacement of screen!...
My Advice
buy a complete set of
iPhone 5 Display Assembly (LCD, Front Panel/Digitizer Only) always from trusted source. Don't buy cheap and it
with iOpener and Magnetic Project Mat will greatly help you to re-assemble quickly!
Carefully remove the broken glass it may hurt you and dispose safely.

My Problem
I'm about to embark on a year of backpacking, and felt that a brand new battery that could hold it's charge for as long as possible was a must.
My Fix
The repair went smoothly. The hi-def videos walked me through every step with ease, I had few questions or confusions. Removing the battery adhesive was difficult, as one side sheared off at the start, and the other half way through the removal. I ended up using the flat spludger to "slowly" pry up the battery from the adhesive, and then remove the adhesive from the shell. Reassembly was a breeze!
My Advice
I would pay careful attention when removing the screen connector; carefully note what is the socket, connector, and bracket. Also. in the event that the battery adhesive breaks off during removal, don't fret. Using the flat end of the spludger carefully pry up the battery by SLOWLY shimming it between the battery and case. Be patient as the adhesive will slowly give.

My Problem
The factory Seagate 3tb hd died.
My Fix
The iMac opening tool was perfect and the adhesive strips are top quality. The little blue tabs made it very easy to strip of the backing. They are also cut to fit perfectly, unlike the generic strips some companies sell.
My Advice
I used an HGST enterprise 4tb drive. I've had great luck with the HGST drives. This machine has the Fusion drive. Disk Utility recognized the new drive and automatically reconfigured the Fusion to the new drive. No command line required.
Also used the OWC cable to enable the iMac to get drive temp to properly control fan speed.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Beautiful Cards!
These cards came out beautifully! I had them printed on the smooth paper, and the colors just look gorgeous! The pictures came out very clear, and the text was crisp and clear! I loved that I could incorporate nine different photographs in the design, however, I picked this specifically because I loved the Top 10 list idea! My only complaint about this format is that it is very difficult to get the pictures to fit in the way using the personalization mode. They don't adjust size or rotate normally, causing frustration when designing. Despite this, I've already recommend this format to a friend of mine to use for her upcoming cards!
Quick, Easy and Stylish
I used Magnetstreet for my wedding save the dates and invitations and they did a great job. Again, I trusted them with my Christmas cards and they turned out great. I think this design looks even better in person and picture was very clear. I changed the color of the block behind "JOY" to dark green to be more holiday looking, and then changed the text to a cream color. I also changed the typeface to something more traditional looking and our names to a green to match the front. I also added a bible verse about joy to the top inside panel. The cardstock is very sturdy too. The only thing that I was a bit disappointed in was the size of the print. It came out a lot smaller than I thought and did not fill as much of the space on the card as I wanted. I used size 9 font, and would recommend maybe a size 10. It's still readable and very pretty. The order shipped very quickly and within a week my cards were made, delivered and I've mailed them out. Thanks!
Great Quality
The card exceeded our expectations. The paper quality was better than "off the counter" at the store and personalized pictures came out fantastic on the card. The cards were delivered early which was also a huge plus. Great job and we'll see you again next holiday season.
These are BEAUTIFUL! It was fast and easy. Our magnets are already in the mail! Thanks for the few extras. We were able to put up at home and at both of our offices!
This service was excellent. The website was easy to use and had so many great options. This is my second order from magnet street and I am thoroughly satisfied.

At this year's event, held inside the White River Gardens Grand Hallway and Hulman Riverhouse, guests escaped to the Arctic region, which is home to Alaskan brown bears, harbor seals, polar bears and walruses — all featured animals at the Zoo! Party goers sampled amazing culinary creations from Centerplate, The Oceanaire Seafood Room and Colts Grille, and sipped delicious drinks provided by Southern Wine & Spirits and Sun King Brewing Co. During the spirited mixology competition, guests decided that Jessica Taylor of the JW Marriott and Jason Foust of The North End BBQ crafted the best cocktail.
Live entertainment was provided throughout the night by Vintage Blue and DJ Lockstar.
Zoolala provides the perfect opportunity for young community leaders ages 21 and older to network and engage each other in a fun social setting while also supporting the Zoo. In three years, the event has raised $115,000 to further the Zoo's mission and programs.

Honduras seeks to stop smoking _ even at home
"The law is stupid because it bans smoking in bars or nightclubs, and everyone knows that people who go there smoke, and if they don't like it, they shouldn't come and that's that," said Gustavo Valladares, a bar manager and smoker.
Nonsmokers see it differently.
"It was about time that the government did something," said elementary school teacher Esteban Quijano, a nonsmoker. "I like to visit bars, but I hate the smoke of others. Most of my friends smoke and I know that it indirectly hurts me and now it will be different. I support the law."

1990 Chevrolet Cavalier Q&A
1990 Chevrolet Cavalier Question: Gas leak on a 1981 Chevy Citation (My car's model is not on the drop down)
About a week ago my tail pipe rusted through where it connects to the Catalytic Converter and they both started dragging on the ground. I parked the car shortly after I found out that it was dragging and haven't driven it since. I jacked the car up yesterday to try and jerry-rig the exhaust so that I could drive it until I can afford to get it fixed, and when it was in the air (about a 20 degree angle from the back tires) it started leaking gas at a rate of about 3 drips per second. I got spooked and lowered it down. When I checked under the hood, I could not find the leak. I'm a single mother of two and I need to get this fixed as quickly and inexpensively as possibly.

About MeI have always had a very strong passion for modeling. What inspires me the most is glamour, lingerie, fitness, implied, fashion, swimwear but there's tons more I'de love to experience also. Best way to contact me is over MM. Also, if you are looking for a Make-Up Artist, I am certified in Make-Up Artistry as well. I currently work as a Promotional Model and a Ring girl for MMA fights.

When booking a shoot, I would like the photographers name, phone number, website (if they have one) and a couple references that they have worked with in the past, such as their MM number. Thank you ~ xoxo

"Even if we play five to 10 per cent below our potential, it could mean missing a medal. Little separates the contenders, though Malaysia is clearly a rung above."
This caution comes from chief coach P. Gopi Chand after doing a reality check on the medal-prospects of the Indian shuttlers in the Commonwealth Games.
In the past year, thanks to the exploits of Saina Nehwal and the rise of the mixed doubles combination of Jwala Gutta and V. Diju in world rankings, badminton gained the attention it so richly deserves. With more Indian men breaking the top-50 barrier in world rankings, the expectations of a medal-winning performance in the Commonwealth Games soared. But Gopi is not one to get carried away by the media-hype and other distractions.
"Yes. We have the potential to win a medal in each of the six categories (including the mixed team event). But I am not going to take any medal for granted or become complacent," states Gopi.
Little to choose
Looking at the 20-nation team event, he says, "Leave out Malaysia (led by men's World No. 1 and 2008 Olympic finalist Chong Wei Lee) and there is very little to choose among India, England and Singapore. One unexpected result can upset all calculations."
Though India is seeded second behind Malaysia, its best players in three sections — men's singles, doubles and mixed doubles — are ranked behind their counterparts from England. Should the individual rankings, instead of team seedings, hold in their prospective clash, there will be obvious disappointment for the host.
Singapore, the other serious medal contender, will rely mainly on the women's singles, doubles and mixed doubles to get past tougher rivals in the knockout phase.
Saina is favourite
In the individual events, women's World No. 3 Saina is an overwhelming favourite for the singles gold.
"Knowing Saina, as long as she does not take any pressure, I think, she should go all the way," says Gopi about her protégé and continues, "but she will have to maintain her level against players like Malaysia's Mew Choo Wong and Scotland's Susan Egelstaff, who have beaten her, and there are others in the fray who have run her close in the past."
Aditi Mutatkar, according to Gopi, has it in her to reach the semifinals. In the men's singles, where Chetan Anand and P. Kashyap carry Indian hopes, Gopi says, "gold looks difficult since Chong Wei Lee is around."
Tough for Indians
The Indians will face a strong challenge (for the lesser medals) from England's Rajiv Ouseph, Adam Smith, Malaysia's Muhammad Hafiz Hashim and Singapore's Zi Liang Derek Wong.
Looking at the doubles events, Gopi says, "We have a chance of a medal in all three doubles. Roopesh (Kumar) and Sanave (Thomas) will have to raise the bar in the men's doubles, where the Malaysians will be an obvious favourite and the English pair is marginally stronger (than the Indian duo).
"In women's doubles, don't be surprised if Jwala and Ashwini (Ponappa) go all the way. On paper, the pairs from Malaysia and Singapore are higher ranked but the Indian girls are good enough to win.
"Diju and Jwala (likely to be second seeds behind the British mixed doubles combination of Nathan Robertson and Jenny Wallwork) will have plenty of work to do since the rivals from Singapore, Canada and Malaysia, too, are not too far behind," says Gopi.
The squad, currently practising at Hyderabad, will reach here on Thursday and resume training at the Siri Fort Complex the following day. "We chose to continue our work at Hyderabad since that helped us save travelling time, lessen transportation worries, etc. Now that every member is raring to go, a couple of days of training at the venue should be enough," concludes a confident and optimistic Gopi.

Due Process Requires That a Defendant Purposefully Target Activities Toward a Particular State in Order To Be Subject to Jurisdiction There
This week, the U.S. Supreme Court issued two opinions clarifying the criteria that must be satisfied before a court may constitutionally exercise personal jurisdiction over a defendant - J. McIntyre Machinery, Ltd. v. Nicastro and Goodyear Dunlop Tires Operations, S.A. v. Brown. Both decisions involved product liability suits asserted against non-U.S. manufacturers, but both have relevance as well for domestic corporations defending lawsuits under any liability theory. The decisions were highly anticipated because the cases, J. McIntyre in particular, were expected to resolve a decades-old debate about the contours of the so-called "stream of commerce" theory of personal jurisdiction. The Court delivered.

Stringent security at the hotel had gradually slackened
HYDERABAD: The circumstantial evidence is damning. The role of insiders in the terror attack at Taj Mahal Hotel cannot be ruled out completely.
What else can explain how certain things just fell into place to accommodate the terrorists' plan? And that is the question doing the rounds among the regular visitors of the hotel.
A few among the heritage hotel's staff, who did not want to come on record for obvious reasons, said security at the hotel was stringent for the past two months. But it was gradually slackening. So much so, that on Wednesday, November 26, only one sniffer dog was present on the premises and one metal detector was in use.
Richard Saldanha, the executive director of US private equity giant Blackstone's India unit, said his car was never allowed till the porch of the hotel. "We had to get down on the road and walk through all the metal detectors. The security levels were really high. I went there about four days before the incident. And all the barricades had been removed," he said.
A regular at the Taj, where Blackstone had an office, Saldanha now stays at the Trident because it's just across the Blackstone local headquarters at Express Towers in Nariman Point. He termed the removal of the barricades that have always been at the hotel "interesting".
Blackstone India's chairman Akhil Gupta is a regular at the Taj gym. And he too found it strange that the security had been downscaled. "I was angry with them for frisking me all the time. But they stopped frisking about six days before the incident," he said.
Intelligence officials and anti-insurgency specialists feel there is more to the incident than what is visible. Especially, how the terrorists took positions inside the Taj, Trident and Nariman House, and continued retaliating at security forces.
"It is impossible for a group of terrorists to carry the ammunition required to fight for 40 hours in a backpack. They had surely set up a base inside the hotels," said one official. Also, the terrorists or their allies could have been present inside the hotels during the attacks. And the manner in which the terrorists went about killing people and fighting security forces is unlike the LeT.
"To withstand the pressure from security forces and minding their business without bothering about hostages shows a different kind of training. There should be a reason for the terrorists to select Nariman House, where there were several Israelis," the official said. "LeT modules usually trigger an explosion and vanish. These guys fought for almost 40 hours knowing that they would eventually be gunned down."

DALLAS A master plan to redevelop Dallas Executive Airport in Southwest Dallas may be hitting some turbulence.
A group of upset residents claims the city has violated state and federal laws by failing to properly notify them of a plan to increase air traffic at the old Redbird Airport.
Darrell Baker, Mel Blazer and Raymond Crawford all live within a few blocks of Executive Airport. All three feel the City of Dallas has pulled a fast one on them.
For the past three years, they say the city has been quietly planning a major airport runway reconstruction and extension without giving their neighborhood proper notice.
Airport Master Plan Advisory Committee meetings have been held and plans have been discussed. But according to the sign-in sheets, few &mash; if any affected residents were a party to the conversation.
'It's all City Hall insiders,' Crawford said. 'There are zero residents listed on these sign-in sheets.'
All three airport neighbors say proper notification of any runway renovations or extensions is required by law, and neighborhood inclusion is just proper protocol.
Mark Duebner is the city's director of aviation. 'I think 'expansion' is the wrong word,' said Mark Duebner, the city's director of aviation. He said he was surprised when just a few weeks ago, after three years of planning opposition to the master plan suddenly arose.
That plan includes area retail and commercial development that citizens in general in the area had been requesting for years.
'This project, by in large, has been a reconstruction of the runway, and so we didn't really feel like there was any controversy,' Duebner said. 'We hadn't heard anything.'
Duebner said that while runway reconstruction is set to begin this summer, Phase Four a 600-foot runway extension hasn't yet been funded by the state or approved by the City Council. He said public hearings for that phase have yet to be held.
Neighbors say they still feel the entire project should be put on hold.
'We are asking for the project to be respected,' Baker said.
Blazer and Crawford added that they are seeking 'transparency' and to be included as citizens.
Duebner said he feels the city could have done a better job of getting the word out to citizens. It's an admission that is not likely to satisfy those citizens who still contend public notification laws were violated.
