Rexcell Tissue & Airlaid: Your friend at Rexcell
The product is airlaid-based material mainly for hygiene applications, on other words; raw material for making napkins, femcare products, wipes etc. A fictional character at Rexcell made a secret movie that was sent to prospects around Europe. It was sent in an unbranded box on a surf tablet with instructions on the screen on how to start the movie. The box also contained a hand written note that told the recipient to start the tablet and watch the movie. It was signed "Your friend at Rexcell" to keep it a little mysterious. This way of communicating in the business is very rare and had a huge impact. The projection was to get 2-3 meetings set up. The result was 22 successful sales meetings and about 20 units were sent.

Points for bravery (especially for a B2B materials supplier) and the idea, but the implementation died once the copywriter scripted the corporate video style and you hired a professional actor. Sorry,it really would have worked better with some random guy from the factory on this cellphone and some scribbled notes.

"LG phone build quality has never been good"
If you're referring to the Nexus 4 here, I think that's a little unfair. Google take some control in the Nexus builds and I've seen nothing but praise for the build quality of the N4.
Personally, I've always found Samsung to have the cheapest feel (certainly the SGS2 felt cheap and flimsy), but the SGS3 is supposed to be well made.

"The data experience is going to be very slow. If you're on a cellular network, [using the Internet] is going to be very slow," he said, adding a typical user's experience is "not going to match the experience shown on TV."
Touch Screen Troubles
Innovative as it may seem, criticism of the touch screen is already beginning to bubble. A video is circulating on YouTube that presents a current iPhone commercial. In the YouTube version, whenever a finger passes over the ad, it leaves a smudged fingerprint behind.
Furthermore, there is the iPhone's keyboard, which will leave texting diehards and worker bees who use their phones for e-mail without the tactile touch of the keys to which they are accustomed.
"The big question, of course, is how usable the keyboard will be," NPD analyst Ross Rubin pointed out. Because the phone is touch screen, there will only be a Qwerty keyboard when needed on the screen. "It may well vary depending on the individual. For some folks it may be great. … Some folks may prefer the individual keyboard."
Apple also announced last week that it won't allow third-party developers to create software for the phone unless it is Web-based, which could leave customers with even less capabilities than they might have with a smart phone like the BlackBerry, Rubin pointed out.
Michael Gartenburg, the vice president and research director and Jupiter Research, calls the iPhone backlash typical.
"There's a saying in this business: You can always spot the pioneers, because they're the ones one with the arrows in their backs," Gartenburg said. "This is the most anticipated phone since Alexander Graham Bell's."
Technical bugs and complaints are a part of every new technology, according to Gartenburg, and the longer you wait the better the technology and the price will be — but don't expect deep iPhone discounts any time soon.
"The price won't come down not any time in the near future," he said. "Between now and the holidays, you'll have a hard time finding one at any price."
Like the iPod, which spawned a family of products from low-end to high-end with different capabilities (witness the iPod mini, the Nano and the Shuffle), the iPhone will spawn different versions, he said, but not immediately.
For all of its criticisms, Paul Saffo, Silicon Valley technology forecaster and lover of new gadgetry, said whatever problems the iPhone has, people who camp out in front of Apple stores Friday won't care.
"Phones are not just function, they're fashion," Saffo said. In addition to the interface, "a lot of the anticipation about the iPhone is that it's going to be the coolest fashion accessory of the season."
Still, Saffo has questions about the battery life and, for someone who travels a lot internationally, the size of the phone and its compatibility with international networks.
The predictions for iPhone aren't all bad, however. Despite his criticisms, Enderle believes that Apple does have a hit on its hands, but that the average consumer shouldn't be in line next Friday; Enderle said that he has heard next generation iPhones will be out by October and could deliver a better product at a cheaper price.
"You don't need to be the first one on the block to get these phones. Sit for a minute," he said. "Eventually I think Apple's got a winner here. It may take two or three versions to work out the bugs."

The Weather Man
this wiki
The Weather Man is one of the few characters in the game. You get letters from him from time to time with weather updates. He always signs off with "...Reporting from the Weather Balloon, over the smoke stacks, over the city, The Weather Man."
The Weather Man usually informs the player about the strange, icy weather taking place around Burnington, telling the readers to stay warm around their fireplaces. The Weather Man, on one occasion, reports the burning of a house, and the loss of a life with it. In this letter, he says "Remember... fire can be warm! Fire can be fun! Fire can be DANGEROUS! But remember, there is one thing more dangerous than fire..." and ends the letter with his usual outro.
The Weather Man plays a key part in the "end sequence" of the game, where you take control of the character you have been playing as throughout the course of the game. If you go to the cliff at the edge of town, the Weather Man will drift onto the screen. He tells you that he can take you far away from the city, as far asthe character wants, but after that, he is on his own, and he can't come back. If you accept the offer, the Weather Man will give a brief final forecast, and the game will end with one final glimpse of the weather balloon, the Weather Man and the character gazing down over its railing.

MEMPHIS, TN (localmemphis.com) -- Organizers of a sidewalk rap party on South Main say they plan to file a complaint with Memphis Police on Tuesday alleging they were the victims of excessive force by officers trying to break it up.
"The whole thing was really meant to be really positive, and it was up until the police showed up," said Crystal Foss.
According to Foss, a crowd of around 40 people were outside a store on South Main as part of the event, which was tied in to Trolley Night activities on South Main. Foss said officers originally had no problem with the music, but then ordered the DJ to turn off the music.
Foss said she was surprised when the tension seemed to elevate as officers pulled out their batons and started swinging them.
"I grabbed my camera turned it on, and started taking photos as soon as I could," said Foss, who is studying photography. "Honestly the crowd was not being aggressive whatsoever, so there was really nothing that we could have done."
One man, the son of Memphis Municipal Court Judge Tarik Sugarmon was hit with pepper spray in the face. Police say Niles Sugarmon grabbed an officer above his duty belt, but friends say Sugarmon slipped in all the commotion.
"For you to pull out pepper spray and unarmed people and they are not fighting with you? It's more than excess," said Nick Hicks, one of the organizers of Friday night's event.
"This situation shocked everybody because everybody saw it as a positive event and for it to go down like it went down, I think it too everybody by surprise," he added. "Seeing that thing manifest our eyes, was just like crazy."
Jeffrey Lichtenstein was also arrested after police say he refused to leave the sidewalk despite being told a number of times. Friends say he was recording officers, and handed off his phone to someone right before he was arrested. Surveillance video shows a police officer grabbing the phone.
A Memphis Police spokeswoman said Monday night that MPD wasn't investigating because no one had filed a formal complaint.
Organizers of Friday night's event said they planned to file that complaint on Tuesday.

People have to get over this black/white issue. The police, regardless of whether they're black, white or orange are here to fight crime and that goes for all people. If a person is guilty of crime, then they are guilty, regardless of the color. If they are innocent then they are innocent.
The politicians need to get involved. The churches need to help. People cannot be intimidated by drug pushers or anyone else. It needs to be stopped right away and the politicians have a big responsibility here. They can nip it in the bud.

New York Nights: Brits & Hits Over Broadway
Editorial Staff • West End • 4 Apr 2005
In the topsy-turvy world of Broadway, the latest smash hit musical is one inspired by the lunacy of the very British Monty Python, while it's a trio of British directors who are reinvestigating a series of American classics.
Spamalot (at the Shubert Theatre) is the biggest and most improbably silly hit in town. "Lovingly ripped off", in the words of the show's poster, from the 1975 film Monty Python and the Holy Grail, it has been adapted by original Python Eric Idle (who has written the book and lyrics and co-written the music with John Du Prez), with the full endorsement and support of the surviving Pythons, all of whom were on hand at the Broadway first night, and one of whom, John Cleese, is additionally to be heard in the show as the voice of God.
Giddily funny
While Idle has commented that the lawyers' fees to draw up the contracts for the stage musical have exceeded the entire budget of making the original film, the money is now flowing back into the pot very fast. With a reported budget of some $11 million, the show's advance ticket sales now stand at over $25 million – with over $2 million of that taken on the single day that followed the show's opening night (See The Goss, 22 Mar 2005). A further $500,000 is being taken daily for tickets that are currently on sale to 8 January 2006. Nevertheless, in an indication of just how tough the economics of Broadway are, these numbers don't spell instant profitability. With a weekly running cost of around $600,000 to meet and a weekly box office potential of some $900,000, recoupment of the initial investment will still take more than a year.
Meanwhile, audiences lucky enough to get tickets are treated to a giddily funny cartoon strip of a show that joyfully replays all the much loved scenes from the cult comedy, from "Bring Out Your Dead" (even if the one of the bodies brought out vigorously protests that he's not quite dead yet) to the Knight who keeps on fighting, even as he loses his arms, legs and finally head. Sophisticated New Yorkers are losing their heads over this show, too – and with tickets so hard to come by now, I wouldn't be surprised if people started offering an arm and a leg for it themselves! (Nothing galvanises this town quite like a hit show does).
It may all be instantly forgettable, but who notices when you're laughing so hard? The Holy Grail – which turns here into a pursuit to create a hit Broadway musical (complete with pastiches of Andrew Lloyd Webber and a number of that rejoices in the declaration "You Won't Succeed on Broadway If You Don't Have Jews") – is triumphantly achieved. It's performed to irreverent perfection by a cast led by Tim Curry as King Arthur, David Hyde Pierce (best known as brother Niles from TV's Frasier) as Sir Robin and Hank Azaria as a rather gay Sir Lancelot, the last of whom steals the show with a Peter Allen-like number that recalls last year's Broadway triumph of Hugh Jackman in The Boy from Oz.
English signatures
While Spamalot cheerfully wears its English heart on its sleeve (and will inevitably be heading home soon to brighten up the West End), London's Chitty Chitty Bang Bang has just taken flight over Broadway (at the newly re-named Hilton Theatre, formerly the Ford), continuing a pervasive influence of all things British.
There's a strong English signature, too, to new productions of American classics. Edward Albee's Whose Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (at the Longacre) is currently being revived in a hit production with Kathleen Turner, under the direction of Brit Anthony Page. And there's a pair of Tennessee Williams' plays: A Streetcar Named Desire (at Studio 54), starring Natasha Richardson and directed by Edward Hall, and The Glass Menagerie (at the Barrymore), which has just opened with Jessica Lange and Whatsonstage.com Best Actor Christian Slater starring under the direction of David Leveaux.
I was at the Broadway opening night of The Glass Menagerie, produced by London's own Bill Kenwright, and I wanted to wish it well. It's a gamble opening shows on Broadway at the best of times, but Kenwright was fielding an ace team, led by Leveaux who I happen to consider to be one of the most compelling of all contemporary theatre directors working on either side of the Atlantic (though he tends to work in the US more than he does at home). But even talented people make mistakes, and this was one of those brave but misguided wobbles.
In a frequently perverse production, Lange and Slater struggle valiantly against a concept that turns Williams' fragile, haunting autobiographical memory play into a nightmare of bad lighting and weird motivations. It's not just the odd design (with a shower-like curtain dividing the forestage from the rear, where the family gather around a non-existent dining room table) but also directorial interventions that suggest an undercurrent of incest between Slater's Tom Wingfield and his damaged sister Laura, affectingly played by Sarah Poulson.
Americans fight back
Elsewhere, American artists are fighting back with various degrees of success on the musicals home front. Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (at the Imperial Theatre) reunites composer David Yazbeck, director Jack O'Brien and choreographer Jerry Mitchell. This is the same team who collaborated on another film-to-stage musical, The Full Monty, a few years ago, when they were pipped to the awards post by the rollercoaster success of The Producers. Now they've done a variation of The Producers, with a similar story of two conmen who join forces to fleece those who come into their path, but this time it looks like their work will be eclipsed by the success of Spamalot.
That's a pity, since this big, brash stage version of the 1988 film comedy has its own virtues, not least the most resourcefully comic performance on Broadway from Norbert Leo Butz (in the Steve Martin screen role), opposite a sweetly suave John Lithgow stepping in for the movie's Michael Caine.
Like The Producers on Broadway, Mamma Mia! has been attracting its own fair share of imitators, but none have been quite so successful at folding an existing pop repertoire into a brand-new story – not until now, that is, with All Shook Up (Palace Theatre). As with the Abba musical, the emphasis is on romance and fun, and Joe DiPietro's skilful and amusing script beautifully dovetails some well-known (and some not so well-known) Elvis classics into a stunningly danced, designed and sung show that simply blew me away.
Next to the joy of these shows, it was back down to earth at Lincoln Center for a pair of deadly earnest new musicals. While Dessa Rose (in the downstairs Mitzi Newhouse studio space), with its score by Ahrens and Flaherty and Adam Guettel's Light in the Piazza (in the Broadway-sized Beaumont) are full of haunting melody and are beautifully performed, true emotion is held at bay.
Finally, for quirky wit and charm, William Finn's The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee (transferring from Off-Broadway's Second Stage to Broadway's Circle in the Square this month) is a pleasantly diverting surprise.

Blue Cross' Options Blue membership has grown more than 2,000 percent, from 13,000 to more than 280,000 members, during the past five years, and continues to grow. "As the market leader, Blue Cross wanted to learn more about how CDHPs are being used by our members. We believe this research is significant not only because of its size, but also because the study suggests a strong relationship between plan design and consumers' use of health care services. Consumer-directed plan designs can provide consumers with appropriate incentives to be thoughtful consumers of health care without impeding their access to the right levels of care," concluded Plocher.
Click here for a link to the study on bluecrossmn.com.
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota, with headquarters in the St.
Paul suburb of Eagan, was chartered in 1933 as Minnesota's first health
plan and continues to carry out its charter mission today: to promote a
wider, more economical and timely availability of health services for the
people of Minnesota. A nonprofit, taxable organization, Blue Cross is the
largest health plan based in Minnesota, covering 2.9 million members in
Minnesota and nationally through its health plans or plans administered by
its affiliated companies. Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota is an

Jez's P.o.v
The party was dragging, nearly eleven o'clock at night and the living room was still full. To be fair, they were creatures of the night.
I needed air. No, I needed Morgead. I had to tell him I'd just had my first kiss. I was warm and fuzzy inside, but it didn't feel as special as I thougt it'd be. Maybe it was because I didn't know Galen very well. Maybe my first kiss was supposed to be for someone else. No matter, I had to tell Morgead.
Morgead! You there?
There was no reply. Instead I just had a headache. I thought I could hear him at first, but if I could, he was very quite. Almost like he was asleep, or injured. Then it occured to me that he might actually be injured. Even when he was asleep, he'd always answered me almost immediatly. He'd never not answered before. Except... Oh god. I knew what'd happened. I ran, as fast as I could, to his house. I rapped on the door for about ten minutes before his mother answered the door, she looked me up and down, then snarled.
Not very friendly for first introductions.
"Where is he?"
She stopped snarling.
"He's not here, and you don't want to be for much longer." She was cold, to the soul.
"Look, I need to talk to him. Now!" I knew she should've scared me, but she didn't.
"Stay away from my son, you little slut." She struck me across the face. That was illegal,right?
I did the only thing I knew how to do. I delved into her mind. I went through thousands of memories with all kinds of different men. All different ethnicities, and different ages and religions. Then, the most horrible thing I'd seen in my life. It was recent,too. No haze or fuxzz around the memory at all, I let it play out.
"You tried to stab your own son?" I was disgusted, horryfied. How could a mother do that to their child.
"What's it gotta do with you?" She leaned close to me. "You little slut."
"Look, I'm not here to be insulted by you. Your,what, fourty five, and you've gone nothing better than stand here and insult a fourteen year old girl? It's pathetic. Now, I'm going to ask you again, where is he?" I was scaring myself a little now.
"You wanna watch your mouth. And your back." She slammed the door.
Then the window opened.
"And he's not here." It slammed shut.
This was worrying. Where could he have gone? Why didn't he come to me? He always did, he wouldn't have gone to Pierce or Val. Thistle was too young. The only other place he could;ve gone would be the woods. If he was there and injured, he wouldn't last ten minutes. I ran, as fast as vampire blood would allow me to, until I got to the woods. It was a big place, but I knew it like the back of my hand, and Morgead and I had our own secluded area for Gang leader meetings.
Then, I saw him. His body lying flat on the floor, He was curled up ike he was asleep, he looked, almost cute. Wow, Morgead and cute, I never expected those to words to fit in the same sentence. I walked over to him, slowly. Maybe he was just sleeping. he didn't have anywhwere else to go, so why not?
I touched his hand. It was cold, but that was no surprise. What got me worrying was the puddle of blood around him. It was cold,too. It had been here for a while. He wasn't sleeping. I started to panick. Maybe I could get him back to my house, there were hundreds of witches there, including Thea and Aradia, somebody had to be able to help. However, even if I could carry him, I doubted i'd be able to make it through the main part of the town with out being seen.
I wondered if I'd be able to reach Galen. Through memories, that is. I had to try. I looked around the floor for a stick. I found one, Wand-shaped. Ironic, the one and only time I wished for witch power, I find a wand-shaped stick that doesn't work. I drew a circle, not particularly big, but bit enough to fit a human in it, or me.
I sat in the middle of the circle, which, yes seemed like a witch thing, but it was the only plan I had. I sat, and thought back to my kiss with Galen, it was the only time I'd touched him, and it wasn't that bad a memory to be honest. I just hoped this would work.
I shouted it as loud as I could. I only hoped he could hear me.
Poor kid, he sounded so confused.
I need help. Don't talk to anyone, I need you to get to me as fast as you can. What animal are you?
I'm not yet. I get to chose.
Oh, okay, I'll not make you chose yet. Just follow my voice. Close your eyes and walk, I'll just keep talking, your feet should find me. Get out of that party. I need you now. Bring Thea or james, if you can. Don't let Ash see you leave please. Hurry.
I'm on it.
Thanks Galen.
We broke the connection. Well, I couldn't hear his thoughts anyway. I would give him a few minutes to get out. Then I'd talk to him.
I only hoped he'd be here. Hope was all I had left. All Morgead has left.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 4/29/13
Chael Sonnen proved timing is everything in the UFC on Saturday night. In fact, a mere 27 seconds was the difference between a "shock the world" moment and what is now a likely retirement for the bombastic fan favorite. On a weird night that saw unintentional eye pokes put a premature end to two fights in the undercard of UFC 159, undisputed light heavyweight champion Jon "Bones" Jones endured a gruesome compound fracture to his left big toe during the frantic first round of the clash with Sonnen. Whether fueled by adrenaline or motivated by all the pre-fight smack talk delivered by Sonnen in the buildup to the pay-per-view event, Jones, the youngest champion in UFC history, did not show any discomfort from the injury -- and simply focused on taking down his opponent and beating him until the referee called the fight and handed him the victory by technical knockout. Imagine what could have been, though? UFC president Dana White admitted postfight that had the first round ended, ...

By AnnieJ on Tuesday May 25, 2010
Only a few weeks ago, Zee TV, Aapka Colors, and STAR Plus all released dance-based reality shows. Dance India Dance L'il Masters, Chak Dhoom Dhoom, and Zara Nachke Dikha all came out at the same time, but it's Zee's DID L'il Masters that is at the top of the TRP charts.
As I had mentioned in a previous article, DID Li'l Masters recorded an opening TVR of 6.7. DID L'il Masters is maintaining its lead over the other two dance shows, "registering a TVR of 3.2. In comparison, Chak Dhoom Dhoom has managed a TVR of 2.35; while Zara Nach Ke Dikha has a TVR of 2.81."
According to Hema Malik, general manager, Lodestar UM, the reason for this is that Zee TV has a strong weekend slot for all genres. (The 9:30 slot has been ruled by captivating shows like Sa Re Ga Ma Pa!)
Colors used to air National Bingo Night, hosted by Abhishek Bachchan, in the time slot occupied by Chak Dhoom Dhoom now. Bingo Night was not as successful as was hoped, as it didn't live up to its hype and failed to grab any great ratings.
Unsurprisingly, ZeeTV played strategically, and DID L'il Masters was rolled out immediately after the DID2 Finale, leveling the playing field by not giving the other channels a head start. With two successful (and not to mention extremely entertaining) seasons of Dance India Dance, why wouldn't people keep coming back for more?
DID L'il Masters and Chak Dhoom Dhoom are both children-based dance shows, and they both have a similar format (16 kids vying for a champion cup over the course of 13 weeks). According to Rajiv Gopinath, chief operating officer, Madison Platinum, the reason that DID L'il Masters is more popular than Chak Dhoom Dhoom is because, "DID has been an established slot for the last five months; so, it was only natural for the opening of L'il Masters to have a blockbuster TVR. On the other hand, Chak Dhoom Dhoom needed huge promotions to get a good initial rating of 4.3."
Gopinath also mentions that DID as a brand focuses on the talent of the ordinary man, whereas other shows like Zara Nach Ke Dikha use celebrities. Through two seasons, DID has been lucky to have 3 talented masters who are compassionate and encourage participants to do their best. By contrast, in the third week, Chak Dhoom Dhoom discovered that one of their judges, Vindoo Dara Singh, is being replaced!
Zara Nachke Dikha is not compared too much to the other two children-based dance shows. It has television actors and actresses pitted against each other in the classic girls versus boys teams. It used to be aired on STAR One and was shifted to STAR Plus in an attempt to garner more ratings, but it seems the ratings are more or less the same.

16 arrested in Tempe prostitution sting
PHOENIX -- Sixteen men were arrested last week at a Tempe hotel during a prostitution sting, according to Tempe police.
The bust occurred at a local hotel near Priest Drive and Baseline Road between July 8-9.
The men arrested are between the ages of 27 and 71, according to a release. Charges filed include soliciting prostitution, indecent exposure and drug possession.
Lt. Scott Smith said the average age of entry into prostitution in Phoenix is approximately 14 years of age.
"Studies demonstrate a majority of sexually exploited persons enter into the sex trade as minors and are often coerced or forced to engage in acts of prostitution by pimps or traffickers," Smith said in a release. "Targeting demand is part of a larger strategy by Arizona law enforcement to keep our communities safe."
The operation targeted adult prostitution specifically.

36 year old woman | Glencoe, IL, USA | Seeking men 34-45 within 50 miles
There is no instinct like that of the heart." ---Lord Byron
Here's a bit about me... I am a divorced, working professional. I'm passionate about my career and love what I do. I find it a luxury these days to be able to say that. How many of us can actually say they have a smile on their face when walking into work? The ones that answered yes, don't you consider yourself lucky? I know I do. Anyhow, I have a beautiful son that brings absolute color to my world. He's my mini sidekick, you can often catch us singing really loud in the car and dancing in our seats. I'm sure it's an entertaining sight for other drivers. :) I'm Armenian, love to cook, love to eat, love to entertain, and explore new things. I am up to trying anything once. I love this city and would like to find someone to explore all that it has to offer. I find Winters in Chicago are equally as fun and romantic as summer outings. My ideal life is having a house full of family and friends to laugh and make memories with. I think I have an old soul (not crotchety, just old). I invite humor in my life and have come to realize it's the best asset you can have when facing the worst of times. Besides having your faith of course. My family is my most treasured possession, I would never take them for granted. I'm honest, compassionate, a hopeless romantic. I love to read, love music, a good dinner and some drinks followed with great conversation. Qualities I'm looking for; honesty, compassion, someone who wants to find a friend in his partner, absolutely chivalrous as well as humorous. Someone who realizes a healthy relationship takes work and is willing to put in the time. It all sounds so simple, doesn't it??? :)
Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Playing sports , Religion/Spiritual , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Wine tasting
Dancing, Martial arts, Swimming, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines, Yoga
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I have Dogs
I have two adorable dogs, Millie my King Charles Cavalier and Cleo my feisty Chihuahau.
The Girl and The Goat, Japonais, Hub 51. California and Arizona
Laughter with friends, music, concerts, books, walking my dogs, watching any reality t.v. that involves a Housewife!!!
I don't have much free time but when I do. I volunteer at my church, love to read, see a good movie, try new restaurants/hotspots. As for summer in Chicago, bike riding, walking to parks with my son, sitting outside and watching a sunset.
Books I've recently read....hmmm its been a while. How about favorites.... A Million Little Pieces, Water For Elephants, The Glass Castle, Night, Me Talk Pretty One Day. Anything that Maya Angelou has written.

Really nice men.
A Full Fledged mod that Incorporates new gameplay elements, Weapons, better Graphics(full version) and many more features
Really nice men.
lookin' good! Can't wait to test that 20 round drum.
>.> Better have a realistic RPM.
I hate how all games make the USAS some slow *** shotgun.
Well the RPM is 360, so it is quite slow.
6 rounds per second is fast enough for a 12 gauge
i dont realy like how most stalker weapon mods paste red dots,acogs,holo's on the carry handle off the weapon instead of using a rail system its unrealistic it wouldnt work in real life and it looks redicilous...sry but just my opinion...
Spoiler alert: That's not an M16. The USAS shotgun has an integral carry handle - that is to say, you can' take it off like on any model M16 after the A2. There's no rail under that carry handle to put the EOTech on, thus, mounting it on top of the carry handle is the only option for that particular weapon.
That aside, yes, it is annoying when all the optics are mounted on top of a carry handle instead of the rail under it (i.e. M16A3/A4, M4A1, et al)

Product description
Historians often look to ancient Greece as the wellspring of Western civilization. Perhaps the most ingenious achievement of the Hellenic mind was the early development of the sciences. What was it about the Greeks, as opposed to the far older civilizations of Egypt, Mesopotamia, India, and China, that gave rise to the uniquely Western, scientific mindset? Bertman explores this intriguing question in this authoritative yet accessible and eloquently told story about the origins of science. Going beyond individual Greek discoveries in the various branches of science, he emphasizes why these early investigators were able to achieve what they did. Among the exceptional characteristics of Greek culture that created the seedbed for early science were: - the Greek emphasis on rationalism--a conviction that human reason could successfully unravel the mysteries of nature and make sense of the cosmos - an early form of humanism--a pride and confidence in human potential despite the frailty and brief tenure of individual lives - the drive to excel in every arena from the battlefield to the Olympic games and arts competitions - an insatiable curiosity that sought understanding of both human nature and the world - a fierce love of freedom and individualism that promoted freedom of thought--the prelude to science. Focusing on ten different branches of science, the author shows why the Greeks gravitated to each specialty and explains the fascinating theories they developed, the brilliant experiments they performed, and the practical applications of their discoveries. He concludes by recounting how these early insights and achievements--transmitted over the course of two thousand years--have shaped the scientific attitude that is the hallmark of today's world. This lively narrative captures the Greek genius and demonstrates the indelible influence of their discoveries on modern science and technology.

Author information
Stephen Bertman, PhD, professor emeritus of classics at Canada's University of Windsor, is the author of seven books, including Doorways through Time (featured by the Natural Science Book Club), The Eight Pillars of Greek Wisdom, Handbook to Life in Ancient Mesopotamia, and Erotic Love Poems of Greece and Rome.
Review quote
"Modern science isn't just built on gifts from the Greeks, it is Greek to the core. In The Genesis of Science, Stephen Bertman demonstrates the core principle by breathing life into the ancient Greeks and skillfully tracing their contribution to a wide variety of disciplines, which, though altered, retain the Greek ideal and all that came with it. Moreover, Bertman does so with a humanistic, visually enhanced flair that makes the story accessible to a wide audience in an age of fear, distrust, and misunderstanding of science's goals and methods. We need more books like this one." --Anthony F. Aveni, Russell Colgate Distinguished University Professor of Astronomy, Anthropology, and Native American Studies, Colgate University

A modular joint prosthesis is intended for implantation in a patient. According to an exemplary embodiment, the modular joint prosthesis includes a head and a stem coupled to the head. The stem has a proximal portion coupled to the head and a distal portion configured to extend into a long bone of the patient. The distal portion may be removed from the stem after implantation of the prosthesis without also removing the proximal portion.
1. A method of replacing a shaft of a joint prosthesis having a body, a head, and a shaft after the joint prosthesis has been implanted in a patient, wherein the body is coupled to the head and the shaft has an outer surface adapted to interface with an intramedullary canal of the patient, comprising:
creating an access aperture in the patient for access to the joint prosthesis;
removing the shaft from the patient without removing both the body and the head from the patient and without decoupling the head from the body;
inserting a replacement shaft into the patient;
coupling the replacement shaft to the body without removing both the body and the head from the patient and without decoupling the head from the body;
locking the replacement shaft into place in the patient; and
closing the access aperture.

The present invention relates to a joint prosthesis, such as a hip or shoulder joint prosthesis. In particular, the invention relates to a modular joint prosthesis having a replaceable shaft.
In the field of orthopaedics, prostheses have been devised for the replacement of many joints in the body. Common applications include hip, shoulder, and knee joint replacements. Such total joint replacement has become a commonplace and effective treatment for the incapacitating pain of arthritis for example.
A large joint prosthesis, such as for a hip or shoulder, typically includes a head that serves as the ball joint and a stem having a shaft that is inserted into a long bone to fix the prosthesis in place. The head and stem and the methods of attaching the head to the stem will differ depending on the type of joint to be replaced and the particular prosthesis as is known in the art.
In a conventional arthroplasty procedure, a prosthesis is first selected and assembled. In surgery, an incision is made for access to the long bone, which is prepared for receipt of the stem with the use of various broaches, rasps, and reamers to ensure a proper fit. The stem is inserted into the long bone and fixed into place with cement, screws, or other means known in the art.
On occasion, the long bone adjacent a prosthesis fractures, requiring treatment. Were the prosthesis not in place, such a fracture would conventionally be treated by the insertion of a intramedullary device, such as an intramedullary nail placed across the fracture area and used to fix the bone into place. However, when a joint prosthesis is in place, access to the point of the fracture is more difficult. In such a case, a joint revision may be required, removing the artificial joint and replacing it with another prosthesis that includes a longer stem traversing the fracture. However, such a joint revision is a complicated procedure and is not an ideal methodology. Therefore, a makeshift internal fixation may be performed that attempts to treat the fracture with external devices such as plates, screws, and wires. Another approach to treating the fracture and avoiding joint revision is to utilize bed rest and traction.
It would be advantageous to have a joint prosthesis that is designed to anticipate the possibility of a periarticular fracture above or below the prosthesis and allow effective treatment of the fracture without requiring removal of the entire artificial joint. It would be further advantageous if a joint prosthesis were designed to allow the replacement of the shaft portion of the stem with a different shaft after the prosthesis has been implanted.
It would be desirable to provide a system and/or method that provides one or more of these or other advantageous features. Other features and advantages will be made apparent from the present specification. The teachings disclosed extend to those embodiments that fall within the scope of the appended claims, regardless of whether they accomplish one or more of the aforementioned needs.
The invention relates to a joint prosthesis for implantation in a patient. The joint prosthesis includes a stem having a proximal portion coupled to the head and a distal portion configured to extend into a long bone of the patient. The distal portion may be removed from the stem after implantation of the prosthesis without also removing the proximal portion.
The invention further relates to a joint prosthesis for implantation in a patient, the joint prosthesis having a body with a central canal extending therethrough. A shaft is coupled to the body and extends through the central canal. The shaft is interchangeable after implantation of the prosthesis by removing the shaft and replacing the shaft with a replacement shaft without dislodging the body from the patient.
The invention further relates to a method of replacing the shaft of a joint prosthesis having a body and a shaft, after the joint prosthesis has been implanted in a patient. The method includes the steps of creating an access aperture in the patient for access to the joint prosthesis, removing the shaft from the patient without removing the body of the prosthesis, and inserting a replacement shaft into the patient. The method further includes the steps of coupling the replacement shaft to the body, locking the replacement shaft into place in the patient, and closing the access aperture.
Further still, the invention relates to a modular joint prosthesis system. The system includes a body, an articular surface, and a first shaft configured to be coupled to the body. A second shaft is also configured to be coupled to the body and the second shaft is used to replace the first shaft after implantation of the prosthesis into a patient without first removing the body of the prosthesis from the patient.
The invention is capable of other embodiments and of being practiced or being carried out in various ways. Alternative exemplary embodiments relate to other features and combinations of features as may be generally recited in the claims.
The invention will become more fully understood from the following detailed description, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein like reference numerals refer to like elements, in which:

Prior to implantation of the prosthesis 10 into the humerus 30, the intramedullary canal in the humerus 30 is first reamed to create the appropriate sized cavity for the body 16 and shaft 18. The shaft 18 may be attached to the body 16 prior to implantation, or after the body 16 has already been implanted. Body 16 may have bony in-growth surfaces such as solder beads or mesh that assist in the securing of body 16 within the bone. Due to the modular construction of the prosthesis, the surgeon may select from shafts of various sizes and configurations.
The surgical methods of performing a primary joint arthroplasty are known, including opening an aperture in the patient for access to the joint, preparing the long bone for insertion of the prosthesis, and utilizing bone cement such as methyl methacralate to fix the stem into place. The chosen shaft may be of static size or may be expandable. Depending on the size and method of locking the shaft into place, the insert may be utilized to fill up the remaining portion of the central canal and further lock the shaft into place. While prosthesis 10 is shown as being implanted into a shoulder joint in

When necessary, removal of shaft 18 may be accomplished via access through the original arthroplasty incision. If insert 22 was used (see

Because the prostheses described herein provide for the removal and replacement of the shaft without requiring complete joint revision including the displacement and removal of the body portion of the stem, greater flexibility over conventional designs with respect to the treatment of later developing fractures or metastatic lesions is afforded. The prostheses described herein anticipate the potential problem of a periarticular fracture above or below an existing prosthesis by the desired approach of utilizing an intramedullary device or longer distal portion of the stem rather than conventional approaches of complete joint revision, makeshift internal fixation, or bed rest and traction.
While the detailed drawings and specific examples given herein describe various exemplary embodiments, they serve the purpose of illustration only. It is to be understood that the invention is not limited in its application to the details of construction and the arrangements of components set forth in the preceding description or illustrated in the drawings. For example, although hip and shoulder joint prostheses are described, the modular cannulated concept described herein may be applied to prostheses for other joints in the body that would derive benefit from the system described herein. Furthermore, other substitutions, modifications, changes, and omissions may be made in the design, operating conditions, and arrangements of the exemplary embodiments without departing from the scope of the invention as expressed in the appended claims.

The result was a clean, "real" shot with no matte lines or weird fx artifacts. I wonder if
Star Trek

I think the technique was pioneered by Norman Dawn around 1915, though not certain. He did extensive work with glass shots and hanging miniatures.

COLUMBUS, MN. - With the repeat winner (Show Runner) of the first two $8000 Mares Opens of the Running Aces summer harness racing season relegated to taking on the boys Wednesday (July 1), Party Hangover Two (Steve Wiseman) took full advantage with a come-from-behind 1:54 victory over Free Girl (Luke Plano) and De Valeria (Tim Maier) on Tuesday night. In just her fourth start of the year, the four-year-old daughter of Party At Artsplace notched her second victory-the first coming in an Open II affair at Cal Expo. Following a break leaving the gate last week, Wiseman cautiously placed Party Hangover Two in sixth in the early going, but was out and racing third-over by the :57.2 halfway point. After advancing to fourth with an aggressive three-wide move at the three-quarters station, the winner flew home in :28 flat to open up a 3-1/2 length lead at the wire. Owned B & D Arnstine, Steve Chambers and Kathy Plested, Party Hangover Two now sports seven career victories and $77,541 in earnings. In a pair of qualifying races prior to the regular program, two drivers got their first wins ever at Running Aces. For 19-year-old qualifying driver Brady Jenson, in his first season in the sulky, it was quite a thrill to guide the trotter DD's Tiger to a neck victory in 2:02. In the pacing qualifier Tony Morgan, one of the winningest drivers in harness history with 15,094 scores, got his first-ever Running Aces triumph as well. Morgan was in town to test-drive Shadow's Image, who responded with a nine-length 1:56 mile, for a prospective new owner. Gregg Keidel
Party Hangover, a Super Night champion as a 3-year-old, returns to action Friday night at Maywood Park after a three-month layoff. The now 6-year-old ICF mare season is the 6-5 morning line favorite in the second race, a mid-level conditioned pace for fillies and mares. Owned by Ken Rucker and trained by his wife Catrina, Party Hangover will leave from the two-post with Travis Seekman, who qualified the mare a week ago at Maywood when she was timed in 1:56.1 behind the winner Lets Drink On It. "Party Hangover had a good month off, just like most of our horses,: said Catrina Rucker. "We blew her out Tuesday and she looked good." In 2012 Party Hangover captured the $159,000 Grandma Ann Championship with John De Long, who drove the daughter of Party At Artsplace for his father Jesse, then the trainer. Party Hangover went on to take the ICF 3-year-old filly division honors in 2012 with over $160,000 in purse earnings. Prior to her Super Night triumph she won both the Springfield Final and Du Quoin's Time Dancer. Party Hangover was bought in early July of 2014 by Rucker who raced the mare the first six months of the year out east, mostly at Yonkers. When she did return to her home state in late June the mare rattled off six consecutive victories between Balmoral and Maywood, including the $21,400 Parklane Powerful crown. The talented mare put $91,501 on her card for 2014 and boasts career earnings of almost $320,000 and 29 lifetime wins heading into Friday's second race. The Rucker Stable is also starting their mare Sexy Card Shark Friday. The 5-year-old comes off a disappointing sixth place finish a week ago at Balmoral. "Sexy Card Shark has some breathing issues that we are working on to straighten out," continued Catrina, "She's had breathing problems throughout her career. Last year she did do better at Maywood." Contract Breach Thursday's program is back up to 10 races and Friday's card is at its normal 12 after being cut by the Maywood Park Race Office last week, a clear violation of its contract with the IHHA. In Item No.40 of the current contract states: "LICENSEES must schedule a minimum of 10 races on Thursday 12 races on Friday, 12 races on Saturday and 10 races on Sunday in each week for which they have been awarded four (4) days of race programs. LICENSEES must schedule a minimum of ten (10) races in each race program. Changes to all of these scheduling requirements will require mutual agreement of LICENSEE and the IHHA and approval by the IRB. The Maywood Race Office did not get permission from the IHHA to cut the number of races on last week's programs, a clear violation of the current contract. Last Friday's Maywood handle of $610,939 on 11 races was well below (about $138,000) the previous two Friday March handles of $782,146 and $715,501 on 12 race cards. While short fields were the root of the problem for last Friday's handle dip, the elimination of a race certainly was also a major contributing factor. The Pot Thickens: The Pick 6 Carryover Pool at Maywood Park has grown to $6,496. The 20 cent wager begins on the first race Thursday and goes through race six. By Mike Paradise
Saturday's re-scheduled Sue Fee stake at Balmoral Park came up with enough harness racing entries to split the ICF filly and mare event into a pair of $13,250 divisions, something I projected to likely occur a few days ago. What I didn't expect was for the one-time Super Night champion Party Hangover to come in from Pennsylvania for the race. The 5-year-old mare, owned by former Illinois trainer Ken Rucker, sent Party Hangover back to Illinois under the care of his wife Catrina for the Sue Fee. The Party At Artsplace mare has been made the 5-2 morning line favorite in the ninth face, the first division of Sue Fee and is being reunited with Todd Warren who guided the mare to six consecutive Chicago circuit victories earlier this year, including the $21,400 Parklane Powerful back in mid-June. Party Hangover left Illinois after a disappointing sixth place finish in the Propes Final on Super Night when she was parked-out to a 27.1 first quarter shooting out from the 10-hole. "Her blood word was all mussed up for that race," said Catrina. "It still wasn't right when she raced later at Saratoga but it looks like she's good again. She wouldn't let anybody pass her last week in Pennsylvania." Party Hangover dropped her first five decisions when she left Illinois, a pair of Open Handicaps at Saratoga in upstate New York, and a trio of conditioned paces in Pennsylvania, before winning her last start (1:55.1) at Philadelphia in front-stepping fashion. "We sent her back out east after Super Night because there weren't any races here in Chicago for her. They weren't writing the "Winner's Over." Now that they are we plan on keeping the mare in Illinois through the end of the year," added the one-time Maywood Park Trainer of the Year. As a 3-year-old, Party Hangover came away with the Grandma Ann 3-year-old filly title on Super Night when she raced out of the Jesse De Long stable. She was acquired by the Rucker's in 2013. "We bought Party Hangover privately near the end of last year and sent her out East to race," said Catrina. "She did very well there but she was ever better when she came back to Illinois, winning a lot of races with Todd. "We trained her Thursday for Saturdays' stake and she trained like a monster. She likes being back home and she likes having her boyfriend Sage Ruck in the stall next to her. You can see he's happy to have his girlfriend back, too." Party Hangover will leave from post three tonight with State Street Liz (3-1, Bobby Smolin) and Fox Valley Amanda (6-1, Dale Hiteman) on her inside and Tamarac Sassy (8-1, Casey Leonard), Ryleigh's Lilly (4-1, Mike Oosting), Schmatie (10-1, John De Long) and Financial Effort (10-1, Ross Leonard) on her right. The fifth race first Sue Fee division looks to be wide-open according to the program odds with Just Be Design (3-1, Dave Magee), Dallas Jones (7-2, Tim Curtin) and Auniqueaquisition (4-1, Dale Hiteman) the first flash favorites. Then it's Whistle Pig (Ross Leonard) at 5-1, Molly Go Lightly (Mike Oosting) at 8-1, Rev Me Up (Brian Carpenter) and Kimberley R (Bobby Smolin) both at 10-1, and the 15-1 longshot Toshie Special (Jacob Fox). by Mike Paradise, for IHHA
The $43,000 Governor's Cup, the feature stake event of the Du Quoin State Fair, was expected to be a hard-fought battle between PQ Three and Unlocked, the one-two finishers at Springfield, and Sunday's race came up as good as forecasted. The two top Illinois conceived and foaled colts put on a torrid duel down the stretch and just as he did at Springfield, the Erv Miller trained P Q Three prevailed for the meet's leading driver Mike Oosting who changed tactics with the son of Yankee Skyscraper. Instead of coming out of a hole, as he did in his all of his other career victories, Oosting sent PQ Three to the front while Unlocked took the pocket behind him, reversing their Springfield roles. "With the wind to the horse's backs on the backside and into their faces in the homestretch we didn't want to come from too far out of it," said the 46-year-old Miller in the winner's circle. "We wanted to be up-close so I wasn't surprised to see the horse on the lead. "PQ Three has really come around for us. "Turning for home he was digging in. Mike has done a very good job of driving him." PQ Three's head triumph was his fifth to go along with four seconds in nine career starts for owners Obermeier & Quaid Stables of Evergreen Park, IL. The youngster's season earnings are now only $601 shy of $100,000. A heady drive by John Roberts enabled the 14-1 longshot Fox Valley Veto to pull off stunning upset in the $33,000 Darn Safe stake for 2-year-old trotting colts and geldings. Sensing the slow pace Roberts took Fox Valley Veto to the front soon after a :29.4 first quarter and was able to give the gelded son of Pizzazzed a :31.2 second quarter breather. When the heavy 1-5 favorite Tour Hall came at him through a :28.4 third quarter the Curt Grummel trainee still had enough left to put away the Springfield champion and post a one length victory in 1:58.1. It was the maiden win for Fox Valley Veto and it came in his fifth career start for his Carrolton, IL proprietors Curt and Craig Grummel. Mystical Walter had no trouble adding the $21,500 Dudley Hanover stake to his 3-year-old colt pacing accomplishments for Casey Leonard and the Miller Stable. The son of Yankee Skyscraper earlier won a Hanover and the Incredible Finale at Balmoral and the recent Springfield State Fair crown for the winning trio of Paymaq Racing (Long Grove, IL), D & M Racing (Chicago) and Mystical Marker Farms (Dwyer, IN). The pocket horse Fancy Creek Elusiv was second best in the 1:52.3 mile, beaten one length. Earlier in the afternoon A Cool Card sped to a 1:50.2 victory in the $10,000 stake for aged ICF pacing colts and geldings, the fastest mile of the meet. Marcus Miller steered the Cole Muffler gelding to his third win in a row for his father, trainer Erv. The $10,000 Aged stake for pacing mares went to Just By Design (Dave Magee) in 1:52.4 for Williamsville, IL owner Josh Carter. It was Mike Brink's fourth training win at the three-day meet. Kiwi Party came on nicely to take the $9,000 County Fair Challenge Championship for freshman pacing fillies in 1:56.2 to earn a start in Balmoral Park's Orange & Blue Filly eliminations three weeks away.

Earlier this month the Kankakee, IL based newspaper The Daily Journal named the harness racing winners of its second annual Illinois Harness Horse Awards of ICF pacers and trotters in their respective 2012 divisions.
Continuing a late summer run that has vaulted her to the top of the three-year-old filly pacing division here in Illinois, Horsemans Financial Agency & Premier Racing's Party Hangover gutted out a hard fought one and a quarter length victory in 1:52.1 to take the $159,000 Grandma Ann Stake.
Throughout his three-plus decades of involvement in the sport as a harness racing trainer and driver, Jesse De Long has captured 291 wins as a driver and 504 as a trainer, however, by his own admission, he has failed to enter the winner's circle to celebrate a triumph in a big stakes race.
