15. The assembly of claim 14 wherein said upper connecting portion of said inner guard sleeve has a pair of diametrically opposed radially outwardly projecting ears for threaded engagement with the internal threads of a leur tip sleeve of a syringe.
The present invention relates to hypodermic syringe needle assemblies, and more particularly concerns a needle assembly that has an improved protective sleeve to guard against inadvertent contact with the end of the cannula.
The standard hypodermic syringe includes a barrel and plunger and a needle assembly having a hub that is readily attachable to and detachable from an end of the barrel. The needle hub mounts the cannula, and in the standard needle assembly, a cannula guard cap is provided that is a hand tight friction fit on the hub. The cannula cap is removed for use of the syringe, and after use the cap may be replaced, or the needle may be inserted into a cork to seal the contents of the syringe. The required handling of the needle assembly after use, whether by replacing the cannula cap or inserting the cannula into a cork, exposes the health care worker to the possibility of accidental needle sticks. With the highly publicized spreading of blood-borne diseases, dangers of such accidental needle sticks are becoming of greater concern. The modern health care worker faces increased risk of contracting life threatening disease through on-the-job exposure at least partly due to accidental needle sticks.
The increased danger has stimulated increased effort toward providing needle assembly protection. Different types of protective devices have been suggested. Many of such devices, however, require some type of structure that is connected to or mounted upon the barrel of the syringe itself and remain connected to the barrel during use and handling of the syringe. This causes significant interference with the handling and use of the syringe, since the standard, relatively smooth and relatively small diameter barrel has now become encumbered with a protective device, which may prevent direct contact of the operator's fingers with the barrel itself. Other arrangements for needle protection, recognizing the problem that stems from the location of protection mounting structure on the syringe barrel, have provided special needle and guard assemblies requiring specially manufactured needles which are considerably longer and more costly than the standard needle assembly.
A widely used standard needle assembly includes a needle hub having an upper end that is formed with an arrangement for connecting the hub to an end of the syringe barrel, and having a lower end to which is fixedly secured the cannula. A standard syringe barrel has an end formed with what is commonly known as a leur tip. The leur tip is available in two forms. A leur slip tip is an elongated, slightly tapered connecting fitting or neck extending from the end of the barrel and formed integrally therewith. The slip tip taper is a hand tight friction fit with the interior of the upper section of the needle assembly hub, which thus can be firmly connected to or removed from the syringe barrel. In a second form of leur tip, the tapered connecting fitting or neck remains the same, but is surrounded by an internally threaded sleeve radially spaced from the slip tip neck. The standard needle assembly hub includes an upper flange having a pair of diametrically opposed, radially outwardly extending ears, which effectively form a pair of thread elements that threadedly engage the internal threads on the leur tip threaded sleeve. In this arrangement the needle assembly hub can be threadedly engaged with the leur tip, and, at the same time, connected to the tip neck with a tight frictional fit for more firm securement. The widely used standard needle assembly thus is particularly configured for use with the widely used leur tip syringe of either configuration. Therefore, it is important that a needle guard be usable with the standard needle assembly and the standard leur tip syringe.
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a needle guard that may be used with standard needle assemblies and syringes and avoids problems of prior devices.
In carrying out principles of the present invention, in accordance with a preferred embodiment thereof, a protective sleeve is made for use with a needle assembly, which assembly has a hub for connection to a syringe barrel and a cannula on a lower section. The sleeve has an inner end secured to and circumscribing an upper section of the hub, and has an outer end extending to the tip of the cannula when the sleeve is longitudinally extended. The sleeve is longitudinally collapsible to a contracted position in which the sleeve outer end is positioned inwardly of the cannula tip to expose the cannula tip for use. The sleeve is mounted to the needle assembly of the standard needle, and does not rely on any connection to the syringe barrel.

FIG. 2 illustrates the assembly of FIG. 1 with the protective sleeve of the present invention secured thereto in extended position;
FIG. 3 is an enlarged sectional view of part of the syringe, needle, assembly and protective sleeve, with the sleeve extended;
FIG. 4 shows the parts of FIG. 3 with the cannula cap removed and the sleeve contracted;
FIG. 5 illustrates the application of a cannula protecting cork to a cannula having the protective sleeve secured thereto; and
FIG. 6 is a top plan view of the protective sleeve.
A common form of hypodermic syringe together with a standard needle assembly is illustrated in FIG. 1. The syringe is formed with a tubular barrel 10 in which is slidably mounted a handle 12 having a plunger 14 (see FIGS. 3 and 5) at a lower end thereof forming a slidable but sealing fit within the interior of the barrel. The end of the barrel includes a leur tip generally indicated at 16 to which is connected a standard needle assembly including a needle hub 18 having a cannula 20 secured thereto. A cannula cap 22 protects the cannula tip and is a hand tight friction fit on a lower portion of the hub 18.
FIG. 2 illustrates the assembly of FIG. 1 having the telescoping needle guard of the present invention secured thereto. The needle guard 24 is formed of three telescoping sections comprising an inner section 30, an intermediate section 32, and an outer end section 34. The inner section is secured to an upper portion of the needle assembly hub 18 above the upper end of the cannula cap 22.
As shown in the enlarged detailed drawing of FIG. 3, the standard leur tip includes a leur tip neck 36 formed integrally with the bottom of barrel 10 and providing a tapered connection fitting for communicating with and secure attachment to the interior of the needle assembly hub 18. The hub has a bore with a tapered surface 40 that mates with the outer surface of the leur tip neck 36 and may be a hand tight fit on the neck to securely hold the needle assembly on the leur tip neck. In one form of leur tip (not shown), the tip has only the neck 36. The tight frictional fit between the neck and hub bore is sufficient, of itself, to secure the needle assembly to the syringe barrel. In the form of leur tip shown in the drawings the neck 36 is surrounded by a short cylindrical sleeve 42 that extends from the barrel a distance less than the distance for which the neck extends. The sleeve 42 has a relatively high pitch internal thread 44 formed to cooperate with a pair of oppositely disposed radially outwardly projecting ears 46,50 formed on an upper flange 54 of the upper portion of the needle assembly hub. Thus by inserting the leur tip neck 36 into the bore 40 and turning the hub 18, the teeth or ears 46,50 become threadedly engaged with the internal threads 44, and further draw the needle hub further up onto the leur tip neck to more tightly hold the needle assembly in its secured position with the syringe barrel.
The standard needle assembly hub includes a relatively larger exterior diameter upper section 58 and a slightly smaller exterior diameter lower section 60 that circumscribes the lower portion of the hub bore 40. To the lowermost end of the hub 18 is secured the cannula 20, having an insertion tip 64. Commonly a cannula cap 22 is provided in the form of a tapered tube closed at an end adjacent the insertion tip and open at its upper end. The upper end of the cannula cap has an enlarged flange 68 circumscribing a cap opening that is a hand tight friction fit on the smaller diameter lower section 60 of the needle assembly hub.
The telescoping guard sleeve or protective sleeve 24 of the present invention includes the inner section 30, having a necked down connecting section 70 at its uppermost end. The necked down connecting section 70 defines an interior bore of a diameter smaller than the interior diameter of the remainder of section 30. The bore of connecting section 70 is a hand tight friction fit on the larger diameter upper section 58 of the hub. Connecting section 70 is formed at its uppermost end with a pair of diametrically opposed radially outwardly projecting ears 74,76 (FIG. 6), which threadedly engage the internal threads 44 of the threaded leur tip sleeve 42. The ears 74,76 of the guard sleeve connecting section are spaced from the ears 46,50 of the hub assembly when the guard sleeve is assembled on the hub so that both pairs of ears may engage the inner threads of the leur tip threaded sleeve.
The lower portion of the inner section 30 of the guard sleeve has an interior diameter that is larger than the outer diameter of the lower section 60 of the hub, and thus provides an annular space for reception of the enlarged inner end 58 of the cannula cap.
Intermediate sleeve 32 of the guard sleeve has an inwardly projecting small annular flange 80 that circumscribes its periphery and is a snug, sliding fit on the exterior surface of the lower portion of inner sleeve section 30. Inner sleeve section 30 is formed with a small radially outwardly extending annular flange 82 at its lower end that cooperates with flange 80 to retain the intermediate section in its slidable relation with respect to the inner section 30. The latter is also formed with a small annular radially outwardly extending protrusion 84, adjacent connecting section 70, that helps to retain the intermediate section on the inner section.
The outer end section 34 of the guard sleeve is formed with a radially inwardly extending small annular flange 86 that is a snug sliding fit on the exterior surface of intermediate section 32 and cooperates with a radially outwardly extending small annular flange 88 on the outer end of intermediate section 32 to keep the intermediate and outer guard sleeve sections in engagement. Outer end section 34 is also formed with a radially inwardly projecting small annular flange 92 that helps retain the outer end section 34 on the intermediate section 32 when the several sections collapse from the extended position of FIG. 3 to the contracted position of FIG. 4. The sections of the guard sleeve are made of a suitable plastic, such as polycarbonate. The sections have sufficient resilience to allow the interengaging sections of the guard sleeve to be assembled one upon the other by forcibly distorting the interengaging flanges 80,82, 86,88.
The described needle guard sleeve, with its three sections telescopically interconnected, is assembled to the needle hub with the cannula cap removed from the hub. Connecting section 70 of the inner end of the innermost sleeve section is forced upon and along the upper, larger diameter hub section 58 and is a strong hand tight fit thereon. By this means the telescoping guard will remain attached to the hub during all subsequent operation with the needle assembly. After attachment of the telescoping sleeve to the hub, the cannula cap may be inserted into the sleeve to frictionally engage and be secured to the smaller diameter lower section 60 of the hub, with the upper open end of the cannula cap being received within the annular space between the hub lower section and the relatively larger diameter of the sleeve inner section. Now the combination of needle hub, cannula, telescopic guard sleeve and cannula cap, may be readily assembled to the leur tip, whether the tip has solely the leur tip neck or includes both the leur tip neck and the leur tip threaded sleeve. The assembly is secured to the leur tip just as if the telescoping guard sleeve was not attached to the needle assembly hub. Where the leur tip has no threaded sleeve, the sole connection between the guarded needle assembly and the syringe is by means of the friction fit of the tapered leur tip neck within the tapered bore of the needle assembly hub. Where the syringe has a leur tip which includes a threaded sleeve, both the needle assembly hub and the inner section of the telescopic guard sleeve may threadedly engage the leur tip threads to more firmly secure the protected needle assembly to the syringe.
With the needle hub, cannula cap, and telescopic guard sleeve attached to the syringe, the syringe may be used by merely pulling the cannula cap off the hub and, with fingers on the exterior of the telescopic guard sleeve, collapsing the latter to the position of FIG. 4. Note that in this position the sleeve sections are all substantially registered with one another so that the lowermost or outermost end of the sleeve outer end section 34 are withdrawn well back of the insertion tip of the cannula 62. The ends of all sleeve sections all are relatively close to a common plane that is perpendicular to the cannula and close to the hub. In this collapsed position of the guard sleeve, all but a small upper or innermost portion of the cannula itself is completely exposed. Further, the guard sleeve, being attached solely to the needle hub, is itself entirely below the bottom of the syringe barrel, and thus can in no way interfere with the use of the syringe by the operator, who normally holds the syringe by the barrel itself.
With the guard sleeve contracted, and the cannula cap removed, the insertion tip of the cannula is inserted into a vein or artery to withdraw blood through the needle hub and through the leur tip neck into the bottom of the barrel by retracting the plunger 14 of the syringe in standard fashion. After completion of this procedure, the cannula is withdrawn from the vein or artery, and the syringe and its needle assembly may be handled in one of several different ways to seal the syringe interior and protect against accidental needle sticks by the cannula. In one type of operation the cannula cap is returned to its place on the lower section of the hub, to thus protect the cannula. During this operation, the operator previously was subject to accident needle prick, if the narrow opening of the cannula guard should miss the cannula tip. However, with the guard sleeve of the present invention secured to the needle assembly hub, as described, immediately upon withdrawal of the needle from the vein or artery the previously contracted guard sleeve sections are extended so that the outermost sleeve end section extends to or slightly beyond the end of the insertion tip of the cannula. With the needle guard extended there is considerably less likelihood of an accidental needle stick when the cannula cap is returned to the hub. Further, with the needle guard extended, the insertion tip is well protected, even in the absence of the cannula cap. It may not be necessary to return the cannula cap to the hub, thus further ensuring against accidental needle stick which may occur during return of the cannula cap.
As mentioned above, with the guard sleeve extended, the insertion tip of the cannula is protected, with or without a cannula cap. Moreover, with the guard sleeve extended, the insertion tip of the cannula (without the cannula cap) may still be inserted into a conventional needle sealing cork, as illustrated in FIG. 5. Such a conventional needle sealing cork includes a solid body of a resilient, generally plastic material 96, having a central relatively shallow depression 98 into which the insertion tip of the cannula may be inserted to seal the interior of the syringe barrel. The standard cork is generally formed with a second radially outwardly positioned annular depression 100, which is somewhat deeper than the shallow central depression 98, so that the cork may be fixed to the standard leur tip threaded sleeve to protect the syringe tip before the needle assembly is attached to the syringe. For use with the present invention, a cork 96 is provided, but with the outer annular recess 100 made of a slightly larger diameter to receive the outer end portions of the outer end section 34 of the telescopically extended guard sleeve. Thus, after withdrawing the cannula from the vein or artery and telescopically extending the guard sleeve, the cork may be applied to the assembly by inserting the cannula insertion tip into a central portion of the shallow recess 98, causing the insertion tip to puncture the cork and to be inserted into the body of the cork. At the same time the outer end section 34 of the guard sleeve is inserted into the annular recess 100 of the cork, and thus the syringe and needle assembly are properly sealed with the cannula fully protected.
It will be seen that there has been described a significantly improved syringe needle guard sleeve. The guard sleeve is useful with the standard needle assembly, is attached solely to the hub of the standard needle assembly, and has no portion thereof extending along or around the syringe barrel. When retracted for use, the guard sleeve in no way impedes normal use of the syringe. When extended, the guard sleeve protects against needle sticks and still enables the use of the standard cannula cap or a cork for sealing the needle end and connecting to the extended needle guard sleeve. No special needle or needle construction is required, nor does this guard sleeve in any way restrict or obstruct handling of the syringe barrel.
The foregoing detailed description is to be clearly understood as given by way of illustration and example only, the spirit and scope of this invention being limited solely by the appended claims.

he's been doing **** like this for years.. I don't know why he's still allowed to sell parts on here with such a terrible reputation.
I logged in for the first time in over a year, just to say GOD DAMNNNN does this thing look good.
totes in.. now i have to find pics
looking for a front pair of silver alcantara b5 sport seats, must be heated, must be mint (atleast 8.5/10)

Seriously.. No one wants this?
I miss that :(
Audi can't do burnouts.. E36 can
It's a secret to me too then.. I mean hypothetically I could, not sure it would make it though

Since 1928, dining at Florentino has meant experiencing the pinnacle of Melbourne hospitality. After taking a seat in the famous mural room, with its huge chandeliers, wooden panels, and Florentine murals, you can sample dishes like venison loin with a juniper crust and heirloom vegetables, and crab ravioli. The five-course tasting menu, called the Gran Tour (A$140), is also a popular option. Downstairs, the Grill has more business-like fare, while the Cellar Bar is perfect for a glass of wine and pasta of the day.

We enjoyed the food and it was defintely the best meal we had in Melbourne. However the restaurant was quite crowded and noisy so that a conversation was difficult.

Cyanogen previously announced that an installer app was going to be coming available in the Play Store. The initial announcement came back in mid-September and at the time word was the installer was going to arrive sometime in the coming weeks.

Hi, thanks for taking the time to read my...
I am a very hard working dedicated person and I live life to it's fullest. I laugh often and am very optimistic. I think my smile is contagious. I have a child that I simply love. My 11 year old is soooo smart that we are able to have intellectual conversations. I am a lifetime student and I have 2 undergrad degrees, one graduate, and I'm working on my MBA now. I tell myself I will stop after this one. I guess I just like the challenge. In my free time I spend lots of time with my boy play and is my foundation. I enjoy helping others more than anything else. I would put everything I'm doing on hold if someone I know needed help with anything at all. I love to travel (Italia being my favorite) and while my immediate family all live here, I have family on the east coast, west coast, and in Southern France. I visit them all as often as possible. I am incredibly honest and trustworthy. I would expect my match to have the same qualities. That is extremely important. I have a great, maybe sarcastic, sense of humor. Sorry but just me.n

Good location, complimentary water and snacks
They were overbooked.Took 1.5 hrs 2 get room.We had 1 towel, were suppose to have 2 double and got king smoking room (ash trays were in there) which they said was nonsmkg but someone had smoked.They used air freshener 2 help vanity light didn't work.
bed was comfortable
poorly trained staff, room missing essential items, breakfast bar was poorly imagined and executed
Great accommodating staff
Rooms are a little tired.
There were many items to choose from at the complimentary breakfast.
Bath tub drain was clogged so bad that water was way above my ankles while taking a very quick shower. The room was very stale smelling when we opened the room at first, but once air was turned on, the smell lessened. The room had nice furnishings.
Proximity to everything.
Smelled horendous. No cart or elevator and stayed on 2nd floor. Bathroom was filthy!
No was ok
Wasn't cleaned very well.
the breakfast was poor. The room was to be a handicap room but how is someone in a wheelchair going to use the shower when the shower is next to the toliet.
not much other than the room was clean
indifferrent staff,paper thin walls, could hear people talking/walking up and down the halls,could hear when every room around me was taking a shower or using the bathroom. no complimentary breakfest. even the cheapest hotel in the area offers something.
Came in for ASU graduation and was needing to change clothes. It was way too early for check in time but our room was ready and they let us check in at 12:30. Everyone was very nice.
Staff was very helpful and the room was clean.
No hottub
This hotel is all about the customer. From the 'made to order' breakfast omelette, to the best cookies I have ever had just for the taking in the afternoon, to the room being spotless, you cannot miss!! There are too many amenities to name!
I loved everything about this hotel!!
convienence price
first couple days little hot water,, found a few cockroaches hanging out, towels were like drying off with sandpaper. now I know why price is so cheap
Room was small but clean.
Bedding was a little worn but clean.
Roaches and not clean
Upholstered recliner was gross. I would never sit on it. Everything was just old and run down.
Broken desk chair.Overall not cleanBreakfast area too small
I like the fact that it had suites and microwaves and refrigerators.
The lobby wasn't welcoming and the lady training wasn't dressed professional.
The room was very nice and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The location was really good, close to everything we needed. The staff could be dressed a little more professional. Clothes that covers your body, a little cleaner overall, hair,nails etc
Room service was horrible!! We stayed 4 nights. Our room was not cleaned, it was barely wiped down. Bathroom got new towels and that's it, still had dirty paper behind the toilet. Our toilet wasn't cleaned once. With kids in the room, we needed it clean.
Clean room, staff was wonderfu and so helpful!
Location and price only reason to stay. Don't expect much for $50. I believe the guest are more extended stay types and drifters. Was not comfortable parking my car in back so parked up front. Room was OK but mattress sunken in center. Very worn out rooms. Breakfast not worth even free. If you just want a quick nap for a cheap price I guess the place is ok. But go in with low expectations.
Convenient to interstate; price reasonable
Breakfast was terrible, limited selections; strong chlorine pool from indoor pool; only a few rooms have a sort of indoor corridor
There was a weird smell when you walked in the room.
nice physical building
cleanliness was an issue
Here's why:
We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tonnes of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car hires can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.
More questions or if you have a bad price to report to us
Please send us an

McGill University study into Polypterus fish offers a unique view into evolution
Study of amphibious walking fish may show how creatures have evolved on land
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Science marches on. Sometimes, it does so on fins.
Research conducted at McGill University studied the effect of a lifetime of walking on a certain type of fish. Yes, fish.
The results, say their paper in the journal Nature, suggest much about the evolution of complex pieces of anatomy such as arms and legs.
"What we wanted to pin down was: if you change the environment of this fish, does it change its behaviour or does its anatomy change?" said Emily Standen, now at the University of Ottawa.
Her team started with a fish called Polypterus. They have both lungs and gills and can live in water or on land. They also have lobe-like fins, positioned so they can pull themselves awkwardly forward as if with stunted arms.
"Some people might say they're not as pretty as trout, but I think they're amazing," Standen said.
She and her colleagues took two groups of Polypterus, raising one in water and one on land. They found that by the end of the experiment, the land-raised group had indeed become more efficient walkers than their aquatic counterparts.
But more interestingly, the landlubbers' bodies had also changed. Bones in their fins had grown beefier. And just a subtle hint of what might be glancingly referred to as a neck had also emerged.
Even more interestingly, the changes seen in the walking group looked a lot like the changes seen in the fossil record as fish slowly evolved for terrestrial life.
"All of these changes mirror what we see in the fossil record," said Standen. "You see these changes in the bones suddenly over evolutionary time, mirrored by what's going on in this one individual."
Environmental changes had produced physical changes — a key finding regarding what scientists call plasticity, the "wiggle room" allowed for in every organism's DNA.
"What it's telling us is the plasticity, or the variation that's hidden within all of us, relates to the evolutionary process because what it allows animals to do is exist in novel environments," Standen said.
"When you change an environment and (an organism) responds in this plastic way, adaptive selection and evolution has something upon which to act."
The whole issue of plasticity is a hot one for evolutionary biologists, Standen said. The amount of its influence over evolution or how traits that appear in individuals become "fixed" into an entire species is still mysterious.
But it could help explain why evolution can come up with solutions so quickly.
"If you've got this variation within you, you don't have to wait for random advantageous mutation to occur to allow you to do something new," Standen said.
"You can use your plasticity to do that new thing, evolution can then act on that existing building block and that combination allows you to explain how really complex changes can occur in a really short time."
Standen said she hopes to be able to keep using Polypterus to answer those questions.
"It is a dream to be able to breed these, to be able to take it to the next step and do generation after generation and see how far does this go and how fast does this go. Can you get this to fix, somehow?
"It is fascinating."

Someone is a little salty. Some of her facts are a little off. Ray Lewis isn't married and he wasn't acquitted of murder. Rev. Ray took a plea deal and was found guilty of Obstruction of Justice. He testified against the two defendants who were charged for murder and they were found innocent. He didn't technically pay off the families, but there were lawsuits brought against him and they were settled out of court for an undisclosed amount. While I believe it is fair if you are going to talk about Ray Lewis you have talk about everything, this just seems more like someone being bitter and lashing out. Your husband's team lost, don't be a Gisele. Tom Brady has a baby mama too.

Trying to score points with advertisers
Memorial Stadium's 9-year-old quarter-million-dollar scoreboard, with its tri-vision rotating advertising panels, has struggled to entice advertisers for the upcoming sports season.
It has been tough to fill the scoreboard, said Kenny Catney, WFISD athletic director.
The scoreboard was purchased in 2002. At the time of purchase, technologies were evolving and changing, said Dan Shelton, WFISD director of maintenance.
He said it was crucial at that time for the district to update the 23-year-old scoreboard it was using, which was costing the district a lot of money in upkeep and maintenance. While there were better scoreboards available than the one purchased, Shelton said, they were extremely expensive and not affordable. The one the district bought was a good alternative to those, he said.
"We needed to make the change, but we couldn't afford (newer technology) at the time," Shelton said. He said new scoreboards with high resolution displays and interactive video boards have become more affordable and he would like to see the district make a change toward one of those down the road.
One of the perks that comes with interactive scoreboards is the ability to make advertisements event specific. This would allow WFISD to increase revenue, Shelton said.
A new scoreboard would range from $250,000 to $400,000, said Shelton.
The current scoreboard had technical issues over the past couple of years, but now is working 100 percent, Shelton said. Catney said problems with the board have always been resolved in a timely manner.
When the scoreboard lost part of the tri-vision panels during a windstorm in the summer of 2007, it was fixed within 14 days, Catney said.
During the past year, Shelton said there have been problems with the small message center, but after a new computer and software was purchased, the issue was resolved a couple of months ago.
Shelton said it is extremely difficult to find replacement parts for the board because they are not being produced anymore.
Catney said the scoreboard may not be in brand new shape, but is functioning according to its purpose — and advertisers are welcome.

2002 Isuzu Rodeo Q&A
2002 Isuzu Rodeo Question: estimated cost of replacement of rear differential
would appreciate closest auto repair shop too - weeze
Answer 1
I don't know whether you have a 4x4 or not, or what your gear ratios are and it does make a difference. The labor for installing a rear diff gearset assembly is about 3 to 4 hours at whatever rate ($85/hr?) in your locale, and the complete gearset assembly new is about $650 for a locking set, and about $450 for a non-locker. Myself, if it's 4X4 I'd use the locker, but if all you do is paved road and no snow, you could get by with the non-locker. I guess it snows in Ohio and you may be on some dirt roads, so I'd say go for the locker. A cheaper choice is to go for a guaranteed used complete rear axle or at least a guaranteed used gearset, but you have to be absolutely sure you have the gear ratio same as original, locker or not. BTW, 'locker' means that one wheel won't spin freely and leave you stuck in a marginal traction condition; the diff 'locks' the rear wheels together once one wheel spins freely. Here's a directory for you: http://repairpal.com/directory?address=45424&car_brand_names=Isuzu - Superbob

A group blog from members of the VB team
This webcast series is devoted to those who want to learn to really use Visual Basic and what it can do! Learn from Ron Cundiff, Developer Evangelist and featured Microsoft speaker.
This is a 20+ part series that's underway. Check out the on demand recordings and sign up for the live webcasts here.
-Beth Massi, Program Manager VS Core Community
I signed up for the on demand webcasts online but do not see a link to download them for later viewing. Are these available for download or only streaming in Live Meeting?
Hi Toffee,
Yes you can download the webcasts by clicking on the "Click to download Live Meeting Replay for offline viewing." link and select "Save As" when the browser prompts you. That will download the WMV file for you.
"who want to learn to really use Visual Basic and what it can do! "
yeah, right.
The very first programing lanauge that i learned during College was Visual Basic 5 but today's VB(VB.net) is vastly different from the VB that i used to know.
when i in VB.net, it make me feel like i'm programing in C#! Why do MS even prompting VB.net to VB developers? Can't MS just tell the truth?
Dear Developers, we have turn VB into C/C++/C# like lanauge and it will be better off for you to learn C# instead of VB.
I don't even understand why MS is keeping VB alive.
Hi Jack,
I think the webcasts series could help you learn VB and .NET so you should try it out. Ron starts out the series with a basic introduction of the different types of applications you can write, including web applications, and does it all from notepad (http://msevents.microsoft.com/cui/eventdetail.aspx?eventID=1032326143&Culture=en-US).
The second webcast walks through the features of the free Visual Basic Express IDE (http://msevents.microsoft.com/cui/eventdetail.aspx?eventID=1032326167&Culture=en-US) which should help get you started.
Then you can learn about language and OOP fundamentals, controls, application structure, and take off from there (http://www.microsoft.com/events/series/msdnvb2005.mspx) . You can also check out the virtual labs that let you work with the products and play with them yourself which also may help you learn.(http://msdn.microsoft.com/virtuallabs/vbasic/default.aspx)
you missed my point. when i code in VB.net it feel like i'm coding in C#. both lanauges are very similar and VB.net is vastly different from old VB.
what is MS doing with VB.net that is different from C#? NOTHING! MS take away all the things that old timers like me love about VB and turn it into C++/Java/C# like lanauges.
Why is MS still promoting VB? Why not just killed it? There are NOTHING in VB.net that make me want to use it. VB.net lost all its orginial flavors. It yet another dead lanauge support by MS to write .Net code.
I rather code in C# than VB.net because there is no different between the two. Can you give me some good reasons why i should code in VB.net and not C#? What does VB.net have to offer that i can't do in C#? the My class in VB.net is ok but that's not enought to make me switch back.
What is your team doing with VB that is different from C#? Why should i go back to VB again?
Huh? I hope you don't mean that OOP is a C++/Java thing that they own. VB isn't like C#, VB and C# are like .NET languages. They are like CIL and do (with many exceptions) what the underlying platform does.
For the record VB has about 5-10x as many specific language features that C# doesn't have. The value of those features in many situations is debatable but I definately wouldn't want to code for Office in C#.
The point remains, I like VB.NET - a lot - so if there are people who use it and like it, why should they take away my favorite toy for you? Why is your disapproval more important than my approval?
This is my point of view and I might be wrong, both VB.NET and C# are .NET language. For VB developers to shift into .NET language VB.NET is the route. For Non-MS developers who wishes to shift into .NET language C# is the route.
Some VB developers are comfortable and happy shifting from VB to VB.NET, its a developer choice whether he/SHE goes to C# or VB.NET. Just like you, you prefer to use C# rather than VB.NET.
Does this answer your question?
