NSAIDs (Ibuprofen, Acetaminophen/Paracetamol) for runners, impairs healing and interferes with hydration
NSAIDs are Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs, the most common are Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), Acetaminophen/Paracetamol (Tylenol, aspirin-free Anacin, Excedrin, and numerous cold medicines) and Aspirin. They work by inhibiting a particular enzyme (Cyclooxygenase) which reduces pain, fever and inflammation. NSAIDs are generally bad for runners, impairing healing, masking symptoms, interfering with hydration and in extreme situations can be life threatening. Ibuprofen use is so common among runners that it is sometimes called "Vitamin I"[1].

1 NSAIDs and Healing
The inflammation response of our bodies is a key part of the healing process. Using NSAIDs to reduce the inflammation has been shown to impair healing in different tissue types:
- Muscles. [2]. A 2001 study showed that Ibuprofen and Acetaminiaphen reduce muscle growth after eccentric exercise. Another study[3] on muscle damage and NSAIDs showed impaired recovery in the early stages of healing. There was some increased Protein synthesis with NSAIDs in latter stages of healing, but the muscles were still weaker 28 days after injury. Other studies[4][5] have shown that four days after injury, NSAIDs resulted in very little muscle regeneration compared with no drugs.
- Tendons. A primate study[6] showed "a marked decrease in the breaking strength of tendons at four and six weeks in the ibuprofen-treated animals". Another animal study[7] showed treated tendons were 32% weaker than their untested counterparts.
- Bone-Tendon Junctions. An animal study[8] of rotator cuff injuries shows that NSAID usage resulted in injuries that did not heal, and those that did heal were weaker than those without NSAID. To quote from the study "Given that NSAID administration was discontinued after 14 days yet affected load-to-failure eight weeks following repair, it appears that inhibition of the early events in the inflammatory cascade has a lasting negative effect on tendon-to-bone healing," Dr. Rodeo said.
- Cartilage. NSAIDs have been shown[9] to impair the healing of bone and cartilage in rabbits.
- Bone fractures. Tests on rats shows that a NSAID (Celecoxib) in the early stages of bone healing impaired healing, producing a weaker repair.[10] A study [11] in 2004 declared " Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs continue to be prescribed as analgesics for patients with healing fractures even though these drugs diminish bone formation, healing, and remodeling".
1.1 Counterpoint
While there is extensive experimental evidence for NSAIDs impairing healing, there are also some studies that show no change with NSAID use, and a few that indicated improved healing. For instance, one study[12] showed that using an NSAID for 6 days after injury resulted in a 42% increased ligament strength at day 14, though there was no change by day 21. Another study[13] showed that an NSAID did not change ligament healing, but did improve the strength of the uninjured ligaments. However, my reading indicates that the preponderance of evidence shows NSAIDs impair healing.
1.2 Ice, Inflammation and Healing
If NSAIDs are bad for healing, should we treat with ice? So far I have found no definitive studies, but ice has a differenct mechanism of action from NSAIDs. By cooling the tissues, ice temporarily reduces inflammation, thereby flushing the wound. It does not directly impact any of the body's enzymes or other processes. If applied for a longer period of time, ice will produce a periodic increase in blood supply that creates a further flushing effect. I have found that ice can produce dramatic improvements in healing speed. See Cryotherapy - Ice for Healing for more details.
2 NSAIDs and Acute kidney failure
Kidney failure while running is extremely rare, and seems to require multiple factors to come together. Looking at the Comrades Marathon, a 90 Km/56 Mile ultramarathon in South Africa, there have only been 19 cases of kidney failure between 1969 and 1986, it even though thousands of people participate each year[14]. The following are considered factors in acute kidney failure related to running.
- Dehydration. Exercise reduces blood flow to the kidneys and dehydration makes this worse.
- NSAIDs. NSAIDs also reduce blood flow to the kidneys[15]. NSAIDs reduce prostaglandin production, and prostaglandins are vital to maintaining blood flow to the kidneys. While NSAIDs are considered safe drugs, NSAIDs are associated with a relatively high incidence of adverse drug reactions involving the kidneys. Generally NSAID side effects are restricted to individuals with predisposition to kidney problems, so extra care should be taken if you have a history of kidney problems. However, athletes push their bodies to extremes, so what applies to the general population may not be valid for runners. One runner was told[16] by doctors that 2400mg Ibuprofen in an ultramarathon was a contributing factor to his kidney failure.
- Rhabdomyolysis. All strenuous exercise causes some muscle damage, but this is generally resolved without a problem. However large amounts of a Protein called myoglobin from damaged muscle can cause a condition called rhabdomyolysis (AKA 'rhabdo'). While serious rhabdomyolysis is rare, it is worth understanding one key symptom, which is low volume, dark urine, often likened to 'coca-cola'. The other symptoms include severe, incapacitating muscle pain and elevated levels of creatine kinase (CK) in the blood (which requires a specialist test). Some individuals[17] have a genetic condition that makes rhabdomyolysis possible after relatively moderate exercise. Rhabdomyolysis is also more likely after eccentric exercise, such as Downhill Running.
- Sickness. A viral or bacterial infection is often a factor in exercise related kidney failure.
Looking at the analysis[15] of nine cases of continued kidney failure in Comrades Marathon, seven had taken NSAIDs, four may have had a viral or bacterial infection. The combination of dehydration, rhabdomyolysis, infection and NSAIDs are a perfect storm for the kidneys.
3 NSAIDs and Hyponatremia
The kidneys are responsible for removing excess fluid from the blood as well as excreting or withholding sodium. If kidney function is compromised, then this can result in Hyponatremia, which can be fatal. Some studies[18][19][20] have shown a correlation between NSAID use in races and Hyponatremia, but others[21][22] have not. Using NSAIDs when hydration is a concern increases the risk of problems occuring.
4 NSAIDs and Sickness
Because a bacterial or viral infection puts more stress on the body, including the kidneys, taking NSAIDs and continuing to run increases your risk of complications. If the sickness is too bad to run without NSAIDs, you probably shouldn't run.
5 NSAIDs for Pain Reduction
The primary purpose of NSAIDs is generally for reducing pain, and they are remarkably effective at achieving this. If you need a painkiller, acetaminophen is probably a better choice than ibuprofen, though be careful as it's easy to overdose on Acetaminophen (see below). Acetaminophen has limited anti-inflammatory properties, so it shouldn't impair healing as much as ibuprofen, but it is still good as a painkiller. Combining acetaminophen or other NSAIDs with Caffeine further improves their painkilling effectiveness. After a major race I can sometimes have so much leg pain that I can't sleep and a little acetaminophen can make all the difference. While the acetaminophen may impair healing somewhat I believe the trade-off in improved sleep is worthwhile. After all, the lack of sleep itself will impair healing, so it's a reasonable compromise.
6 NSAIDs and DOMS
Main article: Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness
Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) generally occurs between 24 and 72 hours after unusual or severe exercise, such as racing a marathon or Downhill Running. The use of NSAIDs to prevent or treat DOMS has been widely researched, with somewhat mixed results. Even scholarly reviews of the research have differing conclusions[23] [24] [25][26]. My conclusions based on the available research are:
- The most common NSAIDs (Ibuprofen, Acetaminophen (Paracetamol), and Aspirin) are unlikely to help with DOMS.
- There is some evidence that Naproxen may be more effective than the common NSAIDs. There is not enough evidence to reach a conclusion on Diclofenac, Codeine, Rofecoxib, Ketoprofen, or Bromelain.
- If an NSAID is taken for DOMS, it should probably be taken immediately after the damaging exercise rather than waiting until the soreness develops.
- It seems likely that taking an NSAID for DOMS will reduce the muscular growth that would normally occur as part of the recovery.
- In one study, rabbits treated with flurbiprofen after DOMS inducing exercise regained more strength after 3-7 days, but between days 7 and 28 days the treated rabbits became weaker while the controls became stronger[27]. This is only one study, and on animals, but it is rather troubling as none of the human studies look at the results over this time period.
6.1 A Summary of the Research on NSAIDs and DOMS
The table below summarizes the research I located on the effect of NSAIDs on DOMS in humans. I've only considered the primary DOMS markers of soreness (pain) and weakness, rather than including things like blood enzymes. For each NSAID I've shown how many studies show an improvement and how many studies show no effect.

7 NSAIDs and Intestinal Damage
As little as one hour of intense cycling can result in indications of small intestinal damage[50]. This is believed to be due to the redirection of blood away from the digestive system and towards the active muscles. These markers are significantly higher if 400mg ibuprofen (the standard single adult dose) is taken before the exercise[51]. The marker used is Plasma Intestinal Fatty Acid Binding Protein which is an early marker of intestinal necrosis[52].
8 NSAIDs and wound healing
Main article: Popping Blisters
Ibuprofen, and possibly other NSAIDs, impair wound healing and should be avoided[53][54].
9 NSAIDs and Racing
Taking NSAIDs in ultramarathon events can improve performance by reducing pain and acute inflammation, but doing so represents a significant risk. There is some evidence[55] [56] that many runners taking NSAIDs have the same level of pain and greater damage markers compared with non-users. This may be because the runners push themselves to a similar level of pain, with the NSAIDs allowing them to do more damage.
- It seems likely that NSAIDs will increase the risk of injury rather than reducing it, as the symptoms of damage will be masked.
- The most common NSAID for racing seems to be ibuprofen. I've not seen any evidence of the relative effectiveness of different NSAIDs on performance.
- It is better to take liquid ibuprofen than tablets or capsules. The tablets and capsules take longer to dissolve and if you have a digestive problem they may not be fully absorbed. You can chew the tablets, but this is unpleasant and ibuprofen can irritate your mouth and throat slightly, so the liquid form is best. It's obviously harder to transport, but you can fill an old film canister with a dose.
- Before an ultramarathon race, you should think through under what circumstances you will consider using NSAIDs and what dosage. Make sure your crew knows that you're taking NSAIDs in case anything happens.
- Extra care should be taken when NSAIDs are used in combination with dehydration, sickness or running the causes serious muscle damage.
- Taking NSAIDs in marathon or shorter races is probably ineffective as the level of damage seen is not as great as in ultramarathon events.
- If you need NSAIDs to start a race, you probably should not compete.
10 Longer Term NSAID usage
Using NSAIDs for longer periods of time can lead to serious health problems and can be fatal. I have a running friend who had a bleeding ulcer from using Ibuprofen, which is a known[57] side effect. The likelihood of a bleeding or perforated ulcer goes up with time, from 1% after 3-6 months, to 2-4% after 12 months. 35% of long term Ibuprofen users get an ulcer[58], which are grim odds.
11 Acetaminophen Overdose Danger (AKA Paracetamol, Tylenol)
Acetaminophen does not have the same risk of ulcers, but it is linked to liver damage, especially in those who drink alcohol. Acetaminophen is the leading cause of acute liver failure[59][60]. There are concerns[61] that even the standard dose can cause changes in liver function. Acetaminophen can cause delayed symptoms[60], with people seeking medical help up to 5 days after the overdose (20% < 12 hours, 35% 12-24 hours, 45% 24 hours+). Overdoses of Acetaminophen can be caused by taking slightly too much over several days, with the toxicity building up[60]. This problem is again exacerbated by those taking alcohol with Acetaminophen[60]. (One factor that increases the risk is that some common medications, such as cold remedies, include Acetaminophen. If people do not add in the dose of Acetaminophen from these other sources, it is easy to unwittingly exceed the safe dosage.)
12 Tangent - Is Acetaminophen really an NSAID?
There are differing opinions around the classification of Acetaminophen as an NSAID with some resources[62] stating it is not an NSAID. While Acetaminophen has limited anti-inflammatory properties, it shares the same mechanism of action with most NSAIDs of inhibiting the COX enzyme and the inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis. It is therefore reasonable and useful to classify Acetaminophen as an NSAID.

Several composites have recently been commercially available as nanocomposites for tooth restorations. Other nano-hybrid composites are also available. However, little is known about the long-term properties and performance of these nanocomposites. OBJECTIVES: To investigate the new generation of nanocomposites and nano-hybrid composites, to correlate the properties with composite microstructure, and to provide clinician with information on different nanocomposites. METHODS: Five commercial nanocomposites and four nano-hybrid composites were studied. Flexural strength and elastic modulus were measured vs. water-immersion time for specimens without immersion, and with immersion for 1 day, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 1 year. RESULTS: Significant differences were found between different composites under the same treatment, and for the same composite after different immersion time (p < 0.05). In general, nano-hybrid composites had higher strengths than nanocomposites. For example, Grandio (Voco, Cuxhaven, Germany), a nano-hybrid, had a flexural strength (mean ± sd; n = 6) of (130 ± 9) MPa after 1 month of immersion, significantly higher than (79 ± 9) MPa of a nanocomposite (Artiste, Pentron) and (94 ± 11) MPa of another nanocomposite (Premise, Kerr, Orange, CA) (p < 0.05). Grandio's elastic modulus of (18.0 ± 0.8) GPa was also higher than those of the nanocomposites, which ranged from 7 to 10 GPa (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Hybrid composites generally had higher strength and elastic modulus than nanocomposites in water-aging. However, nanocomposites were stronger than previously-reported microfill composites. It is important to note that while some nanocomposites may have lower strength than some hybrid composites, nanocomposites may have other meritorious features such as higher esthetics and gloss retention, topics that require further study.

I had not anticipated how the night would go. Dinner was roast beef and I, the vegetarian fingered the fork for half hour before confessing to it. Her eye's twitched and then she'd said 'There I was thinking you were trying to bend the fork' much to her amusement I looked at the fork just to check.
I hadn't told her a few minor details, those I thought minor became major when she bought a bottle of red into the living room; wine, she is perfect! I smiled up politely.
Our conversations went from De Vincci and Mozart to Chinese takeaway's and my grandmothers rocking chair that she'd left me in her will. I was describing it to her, the detail on the rocking chair and how my grandmother use to sit in the shadows of my bedroom when I was a child and sing me to sleep. I pretended for a moment then not to know better of where that rocking chair now sat and how often, like a drunken hag I'd fallen asleep on it rocking with a glass pressed against my cheek.
As the evening passed she wore on me like wine, wine to my head.
Sweet and honest with every word from the very first sip, I
wanted more. It wasn't the cheap kind either, that wine. I
watched as she poured a second glass and I couldn't bargain with
her, I wanted it. I'd of sucked the cork dry if she'd
Her legs wrapped around my waist, her hand still holding the neck like a lady and as I found myself there beneath her, I saw myself. A mirror looking down watching myself come undone, slow and seductive. She controlled me and suddenly I felt like I knew her so well.
I remembered her fingers circling that glass as her fingers worked on me now. They felt like the breeze against my skin, delicately awakening every inch as I lay there; my body once cold and numb now a fire of anticipation...
The tip of her tongue was red and washed over me, my lips left wet from her kisses... And every kiss was as good as the last, until you're drunk with kisses and falling asleep in her arms. Hoping that when you wake the bottle isn't empty.
But this time when I woke she was still sleeping beside me, the bottle untouched by either of us and resting on the side next to two dry glasses. I'd not needed it, I had her. I smiled into her and closed my eyes again knowing that I would sleep sound with her on my lips and not the wine.

Gay Marriage - 16th October 2011
Despite the Fox affair, and really disappointing unemployment statistics, the majority of representations I received this week were on gay marriage. In his speech to the Conservative conference just over a fortnight ago the PM announced a consultation next spring before legislating to enable gay marriage. Indeed, he went further: he said that it was because he was a Conservative that he was in favour of gay marriage. Despite this, I know that some Conservative supporters see this as just another concession to the Liberal Democrats. They are wrong: the PM is passionate about the equality agenda and what is more there was a clear commitment on gay marriage in the Conservative election manifesto.
The concept of gay marriage is not new. 10 countries already allow it including Canada and parts of the USA. In 342 AD the Theodocian penal code banned the practice on pain of death – clearly there must have been a sufficient number of gay weddings to merit a ban with such a draconian penalty. Certainly, we know of at least two Roman emperors who married other men.
On an entirely practical approach I believe that marriage gives rise to greater social stability and all the statistics show that children of married parents fare best. Given that we allow gay couples to adopt, and such is science and ingenuity that they can also procreate, why on earth should we deny them the benefit of marriage?
The objections of my constituents are not practical however, they are religious: they believe that homosexual practice is plain wrong and that allowing gay marriage both encourages the wrong-doing and devalues marriage. I used to be vociferous in my opposition to gay liberation, so much so, that I am deeply ashamed of some of the things I am on record as having said. After thought, prayer, and studying scripture, I have now joined that growing number of Bible believing Christians who think that traditional church teaching has got it completely wrong. The stark fact is that there is nothing in the Bible about being gay (almost certainly because it is not a category that differentiates humans at all), and Jesus does not have a single word to say on the subject. Instead there are a very few scattered references condemning what might be considered as homosexual practice, but I think these are taken out of their proper contexts and poorly translated from the original biblical languages. This is true of the prohibition in Leviticus 18:6 and 20:13 where going to bed with another man is listed with other prohibitions about haircuts, tattoos, intercourse during menstruation, eating pork and shellfish, playing football (playing with pigskin), fortune telling, and mixing threads in clothing (a capital offence!). As for describing sleeping with another man as "an abomination" a more accurate rendering of the Hebrew would be that it is in "poor taste" -and something that really Holy people don't do.
With respect to the destruction of Sodom in the book of Genesis, of the five Old Testament prophets who draw lessons on the fate of the city, not one puts it down to homosexuality. The graphic account of a crowd besieging Lot's house demanding that he bring out his guests "that they might know them" (as the King James Bible quaintly puts it) –and which leads to God's judgement on the city, is terrifying not because the crowd is homosexual, but because they are intent on gang rape.
In the New Testament it is the teaching of St Paul which is used to condemn homosexuality, just as his teaching was once perversely used to justify slavery and then the subjugation of women. If you look carefully at the context and sensitively translate the original Greek, then condemnation of gays just isn't there. What St Paul was rightly against was the inordinate pursuit of pleasure and self indulgence, including the temple cults of fertility which included orgies, prostitutes of both sexes, straight and gay.
For millennia Christians have taken too great an interest in what other people get up to in bed, it is an unhealthy fascination. My starting point is that marriage is a blessing, and therefore I have no business denying that blessing to someone because they happen to be gay. I will go further than the Prime Minister: I am in favour of gay marriage because I am a Christian.

It's a Retreat, not a Resort. If you're comfortable boondocking, you won't give the entry road a second thought. (Keep to the middle of the road - there are some thick low hanging branches on the right side.) If you are a person who isn't happy without a paved road and a concrete pad, I'd recommend moving on down the road. Once you're in, the grounds are *amazing*. Tons of old growth, nature trails along the Myakka river, it's quite lovely - though it borders on being *outrageously* expensive.

If you like rustic, this is better than a 5. That being said, it was hard for us to get passed the dust and ruts in the narrow 3/4 mile drive into the campground.And, be extremely aware of overhanging tree branches. The poor fellow who camped next to us lost his awning. The sites are somewhat small and just grass, but mostly level.The restroom/showers are adequate.We found the staff good natured and helpful. - manarkee

Seems like a RV park on the downhill slide. Worst water I ever encountered, hopefully doesn't have anything to do with the site waste water treatment facility. One guy said the whole town of Venice has bad tasting and smelling water, so who knows. It literally tastes like pond water. I'd say this park is barely big rig friendly. Careful of low hanging trees the entire 1/2 mile trip to your campsite AND within the campground itself. Some of these thick branches can cause some major damage and I'm shocked they haven't remedied the problem. It really shows the laziness when that they can't take a small amount of time to trim up their tree branches. Also be ready to have your fillings shook out from the huge potholes in the road if it rains prior to you arriving or leaving. They charge way too much. Wi-Fi is about a 3 out of 10 and comes with many limitations. There are better parks in the area, just search slightly further out, it will be fine because not much to do around Venice anyways. Won't be back. Rate reflects monthly. Stayed here in a motorhome. - Johnnyboy21

We found this place looking through our Camp Club USA book. While it's mostly a mobile home park, they have sites set aside for RV's at the front of the park next to the street. That said, I was surprised that traffic noise wasn't a problem for us. I'm not 100% certain but I don't think they allow pets so if you're a pet owner, call ahead. Finding someone in the office can sometimes be a bit of a challenge but if you're just looking for an affordable no-frills place to park your RV in Venice, this place just might fit the bill. Of all the towns in Florida we have been to, Venice is the cleanest town we've seen. One day while driving the five miles to the beach to hunt for fossilized sharks teeth, I counted ten pieces of litter -- nothing big, candy wrappers, etc. It's a tidy town of tidy homes and Florida Pines Park is no exception. If it is possible to be too clean, this park may have found that level. I felt like a slob when I kicked my flip flops off like I always do next to the steps before going into our RV. Driving around the park, there is very little ornamentation outside the mobiles. You won't find a lot of tiki lights and stuff cluttered around RV's and mobiles here. Venice is a lovely town of really friendly people who will actually let you out in traffic. Smoking and dogs weren't allowed on any of the beaches we visited. Speaking of beaches, they are beautiful. Some of them are a little rocky but still lovely. The first time you reach down and pick up a whole fossilized sharks tooth, you will remember that feeling for a long time. The ocean is a gorgeous turquoise and watching the dolphins from the wharf was perfect. All in all, Venice is one of my favorite towns. If you're tired of litter and stepping on dog "bombs" left on beaches by lazy owners, Venice could be one of your favorite towns as well. - Travelfish

This is an old park. We pulled into our assigned spot only to find out it was five feet from the very busy US 41, The Tamiami Trail. Constant traffic passing at 55 mph. When I attempted to hook up I found there was no functioning 50 amp service. After I went to the office and tracked down the clerk, he was pumping propane, a repair guy was sent immediately. This guy tested the 50 amp breaker and found it broken. A new breaker was installed. No problems after that. $80 a night on season way too high for what you get. The place did have clean grounds and facilitites. - artgpo

The manager made us feel very welcome. The park and its facilities are very clean. This park includes year round residents and transients. We stayed here 10 days. Lots of things to do in the area. We would stay again. - Judy F
Apr 2013 - $45.00
We love this place and it seems to get better every year. We had a nice pull through and plenty of space. Buildings are a little older, but very well maintained. Lots of seasonal sites but all very nice and no issues. We were scheduled to arrive at night, but broke down on our way and didn't make it until the next morning. The woman in the office was great and didn't even charge us for the night we missed, even though we arrived at 10 AM. Nice pet park and really cool island walk area. Close to North Port and beach. A bit far off interstate, so might not be perfect for overnight stay. Kids enjoyed the pool. - WI BASE

A big dog eared, but good overall. Helpful staff. Asked for a pull thru after we arrived and they obliged for $3.50 more per nite - Back in would have been $23.50. We were assigned one of the 4 concrete pads - luck of draw! - KAZIMIRA

The facilities for common areas are almost all new. Problem is the RV sites. There is an area towards the back at the Myakka River front mostly for short term guests but we were placed in the main portion of the park. That was where the problem came up. Mostly permanent residents in older, static trailers.
Picnic tables and on RV site equipment is generally worn and old.
Everyone was pleasant but this wound up the most expensive and most disappointing place we stayed. There are other, nicer, less expensive RV parks. - bigben
Mar 2015 - $38.00
Stayed here for a month, mid Feb to Mid Mar so had to estimate the daily cost. Excellent front entrance and pool area. Rumour is the pool and office are new. 650 sites of which half are permanent units (half of those have full time residents). Some very nice sites and as always some not so nice sites. Campground was established many years ago so roads are narrow, some sites very cramped, infrastructure needs updating, my 30 amp electrical panel fell apart when I attempted to plug in. They had a blackwater handling equipment on site and there are some RV sites very near so if you are fortunate to get a site nearby, you get to listen to the pumps running all night and get to smell the sewage. Has lots of activities to keep one busy, very close to Venice. Our site was very tight, had to park our truck across the street. Would I return next year - don't think so. - neilmcb2002

The Founding Fathers did not ignore the issue of slavery when they were writing the Constitution. But they could not resolve it. They had to make a number of compromises in order to get the southern delegates to approve the Constitution. These included the Enumeration Clause, the end of legalized importation of slaves in 1808, and the Fugitive Slave clause.
The Founding Fathers were geniuses, but they could not resolve the issue. The seeds were sown for the problem to grow in the future, where more compromises would be needed to prevent the Union coming apart. Eventually, more than seventy years later, the expansion of the country brought sectional differences to a point where no compromises could be found.

Norwegian army driving armoured vehicle using Oculus Rift
The Norwegian army is testing Oculus Rift to let the driver "see trough" their armoured vehicles, using cameras on each side.
The effect can best be described as sitting in a transparent vehicle.
Teknisk Ukeblad got to try out an early development version at the Rena test field with a prototype of Oculus Rift and the specially developed camera system.
With cameras positioned on both sides of the vehicle and the special glasses, the tank operators have a 360 degree view from the driver's seat, even with the hatches battened down.

For the first time in a decade, the four-time national champs were staring at a winless summer.
Uncharacteristically, decorated skipper Clint Bowen had zero wins from 13 starts across seven NSW and Australian championship races before finally breaking through at the death.
Fluid's all-the-way win in race seven assured the Manly boat of third place on overall pointscore, behind runner-up Hubble Chemicals (Nathan Wilmot) and newly-crowned champions Brydens Compensation Lawyers (Lee Knapton).
'It was very relieving. It's been frustrating all season,' Bowen said after Fluid's 70-second win over Straight Azz (Joel Rose) and Hubble.
'We haven't had a win at association level all year.
'It would have been the first time in 10 years for us.
'We've been lacking confidence so it's nice to get the monkey off the back.'
Lee Knapton, Pete Mackie and Ricky Bridge celebrate Brydens' national title - Australian 16ft Skiff Championships
Fluid meant business from the start of the race, held in a 13-18 sou'easter, and never looked in danger of surrendering the lead after getting off the line quickly.
'I put the red shirt on, the Tiger Woods shirt, to signify the last day of competition and our last chance,' Bowen explained
'It was all or nothing. We had to pull the finger out
'We got off the line well and had a bit more faith in ourselves.
'We kept it together and kept it positive.
'When you're back in 15th, 20th it's such hard sailing but when you are right out in front it's so much easier.'
Fluid starting the week hoping to snare a fourth national crown on home waters but Brydens' dominant performance put pay to that.
'Lee and (crewmen) Pete Mackie and Ricky Bridge were just so much better than the rest of us.
'They were unbelievable. They were in another class. They full deserve it.
'I'm actually disappointed we couldn't give them more competition.'

Campers play the "human knot" game. At far right is Hensley Akiboh, 18, a former camper and now a camp counselor. The campers said they like the intellectual games, including an "invisible unicorn" exercise. Campers must try to prove that imaginary unicorns - as a metaphor for God - don't exist.

Armed with its motto "It's Beyond Belief!" Camp Quest is an alternative to religious-oriented summer camps. ...

Five years after her son was stabbed to death, Margie Villanueva still neatly combs her hair and dresses up for each of the court hearings in the murder case.
The 63-year-old sits alone and silent in the back of the Indio courtroom.
Forty-four court hearings later, Margie Villanueva still hasn't heard why her son, Howard Villanueva, was killed.
"My mother, she needs to rest already. This is prolonging everything for us," Janet Villanueva said.
She and other family members, who all live in the Coachella Valley, spoke to The Desert Sun this weekend in their first public comments since Howard's death.
"It's like we get to be reminded every year of mourning for Howard because it's not done," Janet, his sister, said.
Howard Villanueva, 40, was stabbed to death on Sept. 23, 2007, in a Palm Springs home. Police said he was stabbed 13 times in his head, hands and upper body.
Candace Duran, then 19, was charged with murder. Prosecutors said they do not know what led up to the bloody confrontation. She has pleaded not guilty.
Villanueva, a tattoo artist, had brought his tattoo equipment when he showed up at Duran's home the night before his death, his family told The Desert Sun. They don't know who was at the home or what happened.
That's "hugely frustrating," said Amber Villanueva, 25, the oldest of Howard's four children.
She attended court hearings for the three years but stopped going last year.
"I literally cannot wait until we get to trial just so I can see everything and hear everything, see the evidence that they're not bringing out," Amber said in a phone interview Sunday. "It's just frustrating that our family doesn't know the real, true story on what actually happened."
Five days after the stabbing, Duran posted $1 million bail.
While free on bail, Duran has had 19 new cases filed in Riverside County courts, from a misdemeanor DUI charge to felony robbery, as detailed Sunday by The Desert Sun.
After she missed a series of court hearings in June and July, including one on the murder charge, judges issued seven bench warrants for her arrest.
Last Tuesday — ten weeks after the first bench warrant against Duran, now 24 — she was arrested.
In court Thursday, Judge Edward Forstenzer ordered that all Duran's forfeited bail bonds be reinstated. That means any punishment for Duran missing eight court appearances since May were wiped away.
That outraged the Villanueva family.
"This woman has been running free the whole time, running amok," Janet Villanueva said. "If it would have been me, I would have been in jail. I'll never understand that."
Duran's lead defense attorney, Dean Benjamini, was not available to comment for this story, said his law partner and wife, Emily Benjamini.
Born and raised in Indio, Howard Villanueva was one of four children. He graduated from Coachella Valley High School in 1985, where family and friends said he was on the honor roll.
A father of four — he had three daughters and a son — Howard was an artistic man, who constantly sketched drawings and listened to reggae icon Bob Marley.
With a big grin and outgoing personality, he easily struck up friendships with his tattoo clients.
"He was so silly. He always wanted to make people laugh," said his sister, Janet Villanueva.
By all accounts, he had a close-knit family. Howard inked his sister's name on his leg. They had identical tattoos on their wrists, a scene with birds, a moon and palm trees that Howard designed.
Sometime in his early 30s, though, Howard "kind of went the wrong way, hanging out with the wrong people," said Veronica Lopez of La Quinta, a longtime friend and the mother of his son.
In June 2002, Villanueva pleaded guilty to felony possession of controlled substances and was sentenced to six months in jail, according to Riverside County court records.
He has two other drug possession convictions, both misdemeanors, on his record.
"Those are some of his bad times," his sister said. "But when he was doing that stuff, most of the time he didn't come around us. He probably didn't want us to see all that."
Villanueva's family worries his drug use will be used against him if the murder case ever goes to trial.
"My dad, yeah, he did drugs," Amber said. "I guess that's what was involved before his homicide. I don't ever doubt it."
Nearly five years after his death, Howard's family chooses to remember the fun-loving man they knew.
His parents, siblings and children gather every Sept. 23 and visit his grave at Coachella Valley Cemetery or host a barbecue in his honor.
Lopez — who said Howard's 11-year-old son, Tristen, doesn't remember him very well but misses him — remains close with the Villanueva family. They visit, and they call each other about the murder case.
"We all want to have it end. It's been five years," Lopez said. "Come on. We want somebody to pay for it."
Duran remains booked in the Riverside County jail in Indio on 18 charges, including the murder.
A July 10 charge of felony robbery stipulates that she not be allowed bail.
Her next court appearance is scheduled for Friday.
Howard's family is hopeful that Duran will finally go to trial on a murder charge.
"He's not able to voice his story or truth as to what happened and what's still not happening," his cousin, Grace Hernandez, said Sunday. "Maybe he can rest in peace somehow. It's now up to the justice system."

Watch Scott Breeze, AKA the "Dovenator" on his latest record breaking dove shoot in Argentina.
Be sure to watch this video as well as the interview with Scott Breeze in the second video below. Scott explains the predicament in Argentina with the overpopulation of doves. They are a considerable problem for the farmers and agriculture in general in Argentina. The large numbers are due in large part to the doves' reliance on farm crops. The shooting of doves is encouraged and they are considered a pest, numbering in the millions and millions. It is estimated that in the Cordoba region alone, there are 30,000,000 doves -- eating significantly more than 20% of the local crop production. There are two key differences between doves in the U.S. (mourning doves) and the golden eared dove: Golden eared doves reproduce between five and six times per year while laying three to five eggs each time they nest. Due to climate, they also are non-migratory, and spend their lives often within just a few miles of where they hatched. All this contributes to the huge dove population problem.
All the doves shot by Scott, and by the many other hunters who go to Argentina, are utilized as best as possible. Some are eaten by the hunters, the rest are distributed to the local farmers and others who also eat them or utilize them for livestock feed (and then eat the livestock later). As explained by Scott in the second video, currently there is no danger of overhunting the Argentina doves. Although they present a problem for many farmers, they are watched and studied closely since they are also an importent resource for the outfitters and lodges specializing in dove hunting.
In this interview — done at the Winchester Repeating Arms SHOT Show booth — Scott Breeze talks about his experience setting a record for doves shot in one day. This was in Argentina of course, where the doves are officially considered a pest and their numbers are mind boggling.
Scott set the record using two Winchester Super X3 20 Gauge shotguns. While he was shooting one, the other was being loaded. If this sounds amazing to you, watch the interview right here.

Bieber spotted with new brunetteComment on this story
London - Justin Bieber's new love interest has been revealed as "ambitious singer" Ella-Paige Roberts-Clarke.
The 18-year-old heartthrob - who recently split from Selena Gomez - was spotted enjoying Justin Timberlake's London show on Wednesday with the 17-year-old brunette - and friends have revealed she is desperate for fame.
A source told MailOnline: "Since she was at school she always wanted to be famous. The weird thing is she has worked so hard but just being seen with Justin Bieber is probably going to make her career."
Justin and Ella-Paige arrived at the exclusive one-off concert at the HMV Forum in Kentish Town, north London, separately, which Justin's mother Pattie Mallette also attended.
The Baby hitmaker was flanked by security guards and perched himself on the celebrity-packed upper tier balcony, where he appeared to be enthralled by Timberlake and sang along to his 2006 song Until The End Of Time.
The Canadian singer, who is in London for the latest dates on his Believe world tour, didn't stay for long as he made a swift exit after just 10 to 20 minutes - before Justin, 32, performed his new single, Mirrors, which he also sang earlier in the night at the BRIT Awards.
According to Bang Showbiz, Justin tried to make an incognito exit as he was surrounded by a flock of security but turned heads as he tripped over one of his bodyguards and nearly fell. - Bang Showbiz

New York, Sep 2 (IANS) Russian Ekaterina Makarova, seeded 24th, created the biggest upset so far at the 2013 US Open as she shut out Poland's third seed Agnieszka Radwanska 6-4, 6-4 at the Flushing Meadows here.
It seemed like an easy match Sunday for Radwanska when she jumped 4-0 ahead at the beginning, before Makarova made an even bigger spurt by winning the next eight games, taking a 6-4, 2-0 lead, reports Xinhua.
Radwanska came back by winning three consecutive games, but Makarova responded by knocking down four of next five games to finish the match.
"I wouldn't know that as well, what happened," said Radwanska after the match.
"I think I started good. I think she was a little bit nervous in the beginning and then started to play better and better and hit the ball very well."
It was the first top five win for Makarova, and Radwanska became the highest and fifth top-eight seed to be eliminated before the quarter-finals.
Alreay out were No.4 seed Sara Errani, No.6 Caroline Wozniacki, No.7 Petra Kvitova and No.8 Angelique Kerber.
Makarova booked a quarter-final meeting with fifth seeded Chinese Li Na, who needed 57 minutes to beat No.9 seed Jelena Jankovic.
It was an overwhelming match. Li had lost to Jankovic in their last three meetings, but she won all her seven break points and outscored the former world number one 20-7 on winners.
"It's very tough to play against Jankovic because she was former No. 1 and she has very good defense," said Li after the match.
"I still remember last time I played her in Rome. I was feeling I played pretty good, but still lost the match. So I was so sad after the match. So before the match, Carlos (Rodriguez) didn't tell me anything. Just say, remember how you feel after match."
Li entered the match with perfect form, winning three straight games to establish a 3-0 lead. Jankovic managed to break in the fourth game, pulling back the score to 2-3. Li shrugged off the pressure in the sixth game, breaking back to extend the advantage to 4-2. Though Jankovic finished another break afterwards, Li let go no chance in other games, finishing the first set 6-3.
Jankovic hardly had chance in the second set, losing six straight games.
No.1 seed Serena Williams also had a wonderful match beating Sloane Stephens 6-4, 6-1.
"I definitely think it was a high-quality match," said Williams. "I don't think either of us had an overwhelming amount of unforced errors."
The first set turned out to be a close one, in which the two players levelled until 2-2. Stephens made a couple of unforced errors in the sixth game, and Williams took the chance to complete a break with a forehand winner.
Stephens broke back to draw the score back to 4-4, but hot-handed Williams won the following two games to end the first set.
Stephens didn't recover from the first set, losing five straight games after 1-1 to finish the match.
"She's already beaten a couple top players," said Williams about her opponent.
"Sometimes you need a win against top players. She's beaten me, she's beaten other players, so she's there."
The WTA top-ranked player will meet No.18 seed Suarez Navarro from Spain, who beat German eighth seed Angelique Kerber 4-6, 6-3, 7-6 (7-3) in the same day.
On men's side, top seed Novak Djokovic, third seed Andy Murray, fifth seed Thomas Berdych all advanced in straight sets.

Implant Retained Dentures - Denture Implants
Implant retained dentures are securely fixed dentures which are made of high impact acrylic and supported by standard dental implants. The denture implants have an attachment which locates with compatible attachments fixed into the denture. As few as two implants are needed in the lower jaw and usually four are required in the upper jaw, making the system the most economical option for edentulous patients (Those patients with no natural teeth remaining). At all DentalCarePlus implant centres the preferred choice of over-denture to implant attachment is Zest Anchors made in the USA. See the Zest Anchors video.
The Advantages of Implant Retained Dentures
- They are fixed but are still removable by the patient for cleaning in a hygiene programme specified by the dentist.
- They can be replaced at low cost if they become worn through years of use.
- The forces exerted during biting and chewing are absorbed be the gums instead of being absorbed by the implants themselves. (The implants are there simply to keep the denture in place, whereas on al 'All-On-Four' system the impact forces of biting and chewing are taken on the implants themselves)
- They cost much less than full arch implant bridge restorations.
- They cost less than 'All-On-Four' implant restorations
