Giorgio Moroder Presents Metropolis: Special Edition
Fritz Lang
Brigitte Helm
USDVD release date: 15 Nov 2011
In the early 1980s, Giorgio Moroder made a name as a composer and producer of electronic music, working on the films Midnight Express and Flashdance. So it seemed a surprise when he produced a restoration of Fritz Lang's 1927 silent masterpiece Metropolis. Mind you, he did it '80s MTV style with an electronic rock score featuring Adam Ant, Pat Benatar, Bonnie Tyler, Freddie Mercury, and Loverboy. This was enough to give purists conniptions, and then he added tinting. This was in accordance with standard practice of the silent era, although Lang didn't want this film tinted. It wouldn't be the first time his wishes were disregarded, although most of the tinting is so discreet you hardly notice; there are a few special fillips in the scene where the robot transforms into Maria.
This was the first time a generation had seen Lang's movie, and by adding a few minutes salvaged from various prints, Moroder put together the longest version in decades. I'd seen a copy on a 1970s PBS series called The Silent Years but there was never a chance to see it in a theatre. Moroder's 80s bells and whistles seduced the jaded and unwary into Lang's pre-Blade Runner groove, and who knows how many little mullet-headed cinephiles were sparked? Besides, Moroder's "futuristic" touches only showed how little Lang's futurism had dated. Then it came out on VHS and promptly vanished for 20 years.
It makes sense that Kino, whose recent three-hour digital restoration is the jaw-dropping apotheosis of these last 25 years of recovery efforts, should at last exhume Moroder's beautiful monstrosity for the DVD and Blu-Ray crowd. The main extra is a short documentary on the restoration made at the time. At this distance, it's clear how much Moroder loves Lang, and there's no fear that Moroder can replace Lang as the robot replaced Maria. Even from the depths of the '80s, the heart still mediates between the head and the hands.

Doing it the right way is very important to avoiding injuries and keeping your routine going.

In order to successfully gain muscle, it is important to have a strategy, and a plan to execute that strategy. There are various resources that you can utilize to determine which strength-training exercises your plan will incorporate. You should also set a schedule that is easy to follow, and will not overwhelm you. Go over your plan with a professional trainer to make certain that it can fulfill your goals.
Although isolation moves that only require that you move one joint are important, you shouldn't do these types of exercises very often. You definitely do not want to do them more than compound exercises. The best time to make use of these moves is at the end of a workout.
Try varying your grips. Once you become experienced in working out, your muscles will start to resist any growth on exercises that are familiar to them. Different grips can help to make these familiar exercises different, which can cause additional muscle growth. Examples of exercise where you can change the grip are barbell rows, barbell curls, pull-ups, and bench presses. Try using wide grips, close hand grips, reverse grips, and even mixed grips that include having one hand up and one hand down.
Muscle building and conditioning are great ways to lose weight, increase strength and get your body in top-notch shape. Hopefully the advice of this article has increased your knowledge and boosted your motivation. Implement these tips into your workouts and you will be stronger, healthier and looking amazingly fit in no time at all!

If you are looking for some great ideas on how you can improve your fitness level, then look no further. This article is packed full of great information, tips and suggestions on ways that you can incorporate more fitness minded activities and routines into your day and your life.
It can always be difficult to find time for exercise. If you have problems finding the time (or energy) to put in an hour a day in at the gym, try breaking it up into ten minute incraments. Even three ten-minute stints of activity a day, can boost your heart rate throughout the day. Many people also find that by adding ten-minute bursts of activity into their schedule, they have more stamina and are able to increase the amount of energy they put into each activity.
When it comes to exercise, don't take the "all or nothing" approach. It is much better to sneak in a little bit of exercise than to do nothing at all. Just a simple walk will help with your overall health. If you only have one day a week to commit to strength training, you will still see benefits.
Take some time out of your workout to focus specifically on your trouble areas. Doing this will make sure that you give special attention to the things you need to work on, and the extra time will translate to better results. Trouble areas won't be trouble too long if you give them special consideration.
A lot of us want to be in shape, we just don't want to have to do what it takes to get in shape. The ideas and suggestions that you have read in this article, can be a great starting point to changing that around, but you have to be willing to stick with it and see it through.
Mirror, Mirror On The Wall, What Is The Best Fitness Routine For All?

There are many ways to get fit in the comfort and convenience of your own home that are as effective as going to the gym. Check out these tips on how to make fitness possible, regardless of where you choose to go!
Get a pet. Pets keep you more active. While almost any kind of pet will add some extra movement and responsibility to your day, pets that you have to walk are usually ideal. Walking the dog is a great way to add a little extra fitness to your average routine.
When you are running up hills, make sure to lean forward slightly, keep your head up and focus your eyes on the top of the hill. This helps to keep your airways open instead of closing them off as you would if you were hunched over. Keep your eyes on the goal ahead and you'll clear it in no time.
When working out, use this order: dumbbells first, then barbells, then machines. This is because your small stabilizing muscles tire more quickly than your large muscles. Dumbbells and barbells require more use of these smaller stabilizing muscles, you should use them first and move onto machines, which rely more on your larger muscles instead.
A 24-hour gym can be a useful ally in the fight for total fitness. While establishing a consistent exercise routine is a good thing, what if the would-be fitness maven's schedule dictates that the only time he or she has to work out is at two A.M.? Locating an always-open gym helps exercisers work on unusual schedules without sacrificing their fitness goals.
As you can see, there are many ways to get fit – whether at home or in a gym. You can spend nothing or as much as you want on equipment, but regardless, you can always get a great workout. Incorporate these tips into your fitness routine and enjoy the perks of just 'rolling out of bed' and getting right into your workout.

Muscle building is something that needs to be on everyone's mind as they get older. As muscle density decreases, it's up to you to make sure that your muscles are as strong as they can be. Here are some great tips for building muscle so that you can continue to be strong as you age.

Eating a small portion of cheese and a fruit is a great way to do this. You should also eat something soon after you wake up.
Are you trying to add muscle mass to your body? If you are eating calorie-dense foods and are performing muscle build workouts but are still not seeing the results that you desire, you might want to consider adding creatine supplements to boost the growth of your muscles. Creatine aids in building muscle mass. Not only is this supplement popular with many professional bodybuilders, it is also popular with many elite athletes in other sports.
Have protein before starting a workout. Whether you have a sandwich with about 4 ounces of lunch meat, a protein bar or a shake, it's important to remember that protein synthesis is what is important for building muscle. Have your protein about half an hour to an hour before starting a workout for best results.
If you consume meat, it will help you build your muscles. You should want to eat at least one gram of protein for every pound you weigh. This is important because it allows you to store a protein reserve that your body will be able to use to build muscle.
As life goes on, muscle building is not just for bodybuilders. Building muscle can be a very important part of anyone's life, if they have the facts and effective techniques to build their muscles. Take the tips laid out here and build stronger muscles for the rest of your life.

The Dangers Of Using Steroids To Build Muscle
As you get older, your muscle density begins to drop. Luckily, you can build and train your muscles so that you can maximize the muscles you still have. With just a little knowhow and some training, you can build some impressive muscles. Here are some muscle building tips to get you started.
It is important to eat foods and meals with carbohydrates after your workout and on your rest days. This will help you to rebuild and grow your muscles faster. The reason for this is that consuming carbohydrates causes the production of insulin in your body which in turn slows down the rate at which your body breaks down proteins. Even something as simple as a banana or a peanut butter sandwich will help.
If you are trying to build muscle mass, it is important to eat calorie-dense food at the right time. The best time to eat your heaviest meal of the day is after you have completed your muscle-building workout session. It is at this time that the energy demands of your body are at peak levels since your body needs the nutrition to repair and build muscles. If you continue to eat some more calorie-dense food every couple of hours, you will provide an opportunity for your body to add even more muscle mass.
Don't skimp on protein when building muscle. Include a variety of lean proteins and healthy fats in your diet for the best results. Not consuming enough protein limits the amount of muscle mass your body can actually grow. Try to eat healthy, lean proteins in two of the three major meals and one or two of your snacks every day.
As you can now tell, building muscle can be simple to do with the right information and tips. Use the information given here and start building your muscles so that you can start to makeup for the loss of muscle density that age causes. Take it slowly, and you will soon see the results you seek.
Tips For Working Fitness Into Your Life
Are you feeling burned out with your fitness program and diet? Don't get discouraged. It is only natural for you not to want to have to think about your health, every minute of everyday. The following article will give you tips on how to get back on track and stay in charge of your fitness and diet plan.
Before and after you work out, make sure that you stretch your limbs properly. Perform each stretch for at least thirty seconds. If you are unsure how to stretch, ask a licensed health professional, or consult an online website on the subject. When you stretch properly, you break up the lactic acid stored in your muscles and prevent soreness.
One way to stay healthy and fit when working out is to do all that you can to prevent neck injury. Never exert yourself without proper guidance and knowledge. Always use proper form when performing any type of strength building exercise. Be sure to stretch your neck properly before and after the workout.
If you are a woman and uncomfortable working out in front of men, check out the many new chains of female-only gyms. Many women are self-conscious of their image, especially those who may be just beginning to take fitness seriously. It can be intimidating to go to a gym filled with the opposite sex. By keeping groups small and female-only, many of these new gyms are perfectly suited for a woman starting out on her fitness journey.
Be sure that you are always breathing properly with your fitness routine. This will ensure that you are maximizing the usefulness of each breath that you take. You know you are breathing correctly when your stomach is what is moving and not your shoulders. If you are self conscious about looks, you can try to wear either darker clothing or clothing that does not fit as tight.
So don't beat yourself up for missing a workout or eating a doughnut. The big picture is to be active in your fitness program consistently, but occasionally, give yourself a break from routine. Skipping a day of exercise and allowing yourself to eat dessert is normal. Just don't let it become routine.
Build Muscle By Eating Right And Exercising Well

You will be able to build muscle faster if you take breaks between workout, days in contrast to working out every day. The reason for this is that muscles heal and grow while you are resting, and not while you are exercising. Create a workout routine that alternates between workout and rest days.
The bench press, the squat and the deadlift should form the focus of your workout sessions. These exercises are commonly considered the foundation of a successful bodybuilder's program and there are good reasons for this. It's proven to increase muscle bulk, build muscle strength, and improve the overall condition of your muscles. These exercises should always be included in some form or another.
Consider drinking a protein shake before starting your weight-training workouts. Liquid minerals tend to be absorbed quicker in the body than solid food, so think about having a shake filled with protein, about 10 to 20 grams. The protein shake will help give you a boost of protein to encourage protein synthesis, which is the way to building muscles.
Consume more calories each and every day. If you are trying to gain some muscle weight, you will need to be eating more. Make sure these calories come from healthy foods, do not allow yourself to fill up only on junk, it will not help you out at all.
As you read in the above article, there are various ways to boost your muscles. There has been some helpful advice provided here for you. Start will the ones that you think will yield the greatest results. Mix and match approaches to find a combination of strategies that work for you.

'US faces turmoil if Pak turns a failed state'
Washington: Pakistan faces a major threat of
turning into a failed nation state, a leading Republican presidential candidate has said, advocating that the US shore up its relationships in the region, particularly with India,
to meet the potential "turmoil".
Republican candidate Jon Huntsman said a greater
relationship with India, a country which shares the democratic
values of the US, would give Washington "a hedge" in the
"As you look the world over, I would have to say that
Pakistan is a candidate for possible failed nation-state
status, probably second only to North Korea," Huntsman said
participating in a "Lincoln-Douglas" presidential debate in
New Hampshire.
"If that were to happen, the turmoil in South Asia would
be imponderable at this point. And would our interests be at stake? Of course they would be," the former Utah Governor noted.
Contending that Pakistan had become "a training ground
for terrorism," Huntsman said the US not only needs to work on
this but also needs to tie up aid to outcomes and formulate
whether its aid support to the country be channelised through
non-governmental groups.
"And it means we`re going to have to shore up some of the
relationships in the region. I think the relationship with
India is a primary -- a prime example of a relationship that
is waiting to broaden and expand its economic, military
intelligence links with the United States.
"It gives us another platform, another set of eyes and
ears from which we can see Pakistan. It gives us a little bit
of a hedge in the region, which I think is good," he said.
Huntsman said stronger ties with India allow the US to
"recognise and to compliment" a state that shares many of its
values being the largest democracy with a billion people.
"Is it lively and colourful during election time in
India? Absolutely, it is. They share our values, and I think
that`s an important thing for us to recognise," said Huntsman,
who has an adopted daughter from India.
"And as the tumult continues to play out, and the level
of uncertainty, in Pakistan and indeed with Afghanistan, and
as the various players begins to position themselves to fill
what likely will be a void -- Russia will want to play some
role; Pakistan will follow India, who will go in and probably
support the Northern Alliance. The Chinese will look and say
-- wonder what on earth is going on," he said.

Wash. college riot damages deputy's car
OLYMPIA, Wash. — A concert at The Evergreen State College ended in a riot in which a Thurston County sheriff's patrol car was overturned and looted.
State Patrol Trooper Brandy Kessler says officers were pelted by rocks in the disturbance early Friday but there were no serious injuries.
She says it began about 1:30 a.m. when a fight broke out at the concert and a campus police officer arrested a suspect for misdemeanor assault.
Kessler says the crowd surrounded the officer's car, saying let him go, so she called for backup.
Thurston County deputies responded and removed the campus officer and her car and released the suspect, since they already had his identification.
When a deputy's car wouldn't start, the crowd overturned it and broke out the windows. Kessler says the deputy's laptop computer and a radar gun were stolen. No weapons were lost.
Troopers and a Thurston County SWAT team dispersed the crowd with no more arrests.

Posted Mar 1 2011 2:38PM
SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- On a night of contrasts -- fans cheering for the future of a team clad in throwback uniforms, in an old gymnasium about to get a new name, with the point-guard mayor embracing the moment just days after misplaying opportunity into antagonism -- the right move for the Kings would be to stay in Sacramento.
Strip away the emotions of Monday at for-one-last-time Arco Arena. Ignore the political reality that hizzoner Kevin Johnson and other city officials have been reduced to bystander status. Eliminate the agony of the indecision.
What remains are tangible reasons to postpone a move to Anaheim.
Joe and Gavin Maloof, owners of the team in eternal transition, know the reasons. More importantly, they believe in a lot of them. It's why the original deadline to file relocation papers passed with an extension on Tuesday, not a decision. They want to stay and can't get a new arena, but they can't get a choice deal anywhere else. Staying for at least one more season is a real possibility.
In the bad news for Sacramento, any reason for the Maloofs to stay would be driven by an inability to get the arrangement they want in Anaheim, not by a naïve belief that they are sure to get something done here. The rationale will be anti-move as opposed to pro-stay.
In the good news for Sacramento, that's better than no hope at all.
Either way, the Maloofs know they need finality one way or another. They clearly recognize that making a move just to make a move, to solve the arena problem that isn't going away in Sacramento, would lead to other problems in Anaheim.
Chances are still very strong the Kings will relocate, as has been the case since the NBA announced early in the season it was pulling out of negotiations. But a temporary reprieve is possible. The Kings could decline to file now and still go for relocation by next March 1, when circumstances may have shifted.
Until then, the landscape is all wrong for a move to Anaheim.
Issue No. 1: To put hundreds of millions of dollars on the line, perhaps the entire family fortune centered on a Las Vegas casino and a basketball franchise, and move during a lockout would be more than risky. It would be reckless. What owner could possibly think it makes sense to declare a new home soon after the regular season, spend time promoting the team there ... and then not play, possibly for weeks, possibly for months?
Good luck getting people to buy tickets for a bad team in a bad economy when no one can even say when the season starts.
Issue No. 2: The Kings are bad now and will be bad next season. They could be better, depending on the health of Tyreke Evans, the maturity of DeMarcus Cousins and the 2011 lottery pick. But it's hard to imagine spending big for a free agent or taking on weighty contracts in a trade. They're 4 ½ games behind the Clippers now, even after Sacramento's 105-99 victory Monday, but the Clippers are in much better position for a big jump in 2011-12.
That means the Kings would be trying to win fans in Anaheim as the third-best team in the market and -- with the impact of Clippers rookie Blake Griffin -- the third-most popular. Move 30, 35 miles from Staples Center just as the Kings head to the lottery and the Clippers are riding a rocket ship of popularity? The timing is so, so wrong.
And, yes, all three teams would be in the same market. Anaheim, in Orange County, may like to think of itself as separate from L.A., but the Lakers and Clippers both draw a large portion of fans from behind the Orange Curtain. The important TV ratings, which help set advertising rates, include that area. There is serious money in the OC, but some of it is already spoken for among pro basketball, baseball's Angels and hockey's Ducks.
Can the Kings afford to stay in Sacramento? The better question may be whether they can afford to move.
An operation that by all indications is cash strapped would have to front insane amounts to move, from closing the books in Sacramento to forking over the NBA's relocation fee to the likelihood of handing over an additional massive payout to the Lakers and Clippers just to be allowed to move into their market.
Every indication is that the Kings would win if the relocation committee signs off on the change -- "the rest of the league would love it," one insider predicts, noting owners would see too many positives in trading a small market for the potential riches of Southern California.
Still, it could be difficult to face down the Lakers and Clippers.
"Give me one good reason why either team would vote yes," said one person close to the situation. "[Lakers owner] Jerry Buss just made a $3-billion TV deal. You think he's going to jump up and down [with excitement] over $10-15 million?"
While several more years in town remain a long shot, playing the 2011-12 season in Sacramento remains very possible. Sacramento mayor Johnson, the former All-Star point guard, threw cold water on that notion by saying at a press conference last Thursday that the attempt to slow the process only means the Kings are looking for a deal elsewhere and want more time to consider options.
But an extension should have been viewed as a good thing for Sacramento. A delay is buying time, and the city more than anything needs to buy time.
By Monday, fans who once made Arco one of the best home courts in the league filled the old barn in hopes of showing the Maloofs how much the Kings still mean to the community. It would have come across a lot better if the franchise didn't register the second-lowest attendance in the league (13,494) in the previous 28 home games.
The announced capacity crowd of 17,317 -- tickets distributed, not actual attendance -- didn't change anything in the final hours before the name of the arena was changed to Power Balance Pavilion. The Kings wore the jerseys of the 1950s Rochester Royals as fans chanted and cheered for a future.
It's not much of a voice. But it's all they have left.

The present invention relates to puncturing sets such as are generally used in the healthcare field and in particular for the puncturing of pathological, liquid-filled body cavities.
Such puncturing sets are used to collect and remove undesirable liquid accumulations from body cavities or for extracting body fluid samples for diagnostic purposes. It is conventional to use hollow needles, such as cannulas or trocars, which pierce through the surrounding body wall to reach the body cavity that is to be evacuated. Following puncturing, the liquid is withdrawn through the hollow needle. It is a disadvantage of such known arrangements that the needle, which remains in the body cavity while the liquid is withdrawn, can injure the body tissue that surrounds the hollow space.
The use of so-called "Braunulen" for puncturing is also known. A Braunule is a piercing instrument which has a hollow needle disposed inside a cannula-like plastic tube. The pointed end of the needle extends beyond the forward end of the plastic tubing. A Braunule is conventionally introduced into the body, for example into a vein, by piercing the body wall with the hollow needle and by then pushing the plastic tubing as far as needed into the body. The needle is then pulled out of the plastic tubing and removed so that the plastic tubing remains in the body, for example in the vein, for connection to an infusion system, for example. The use of Braunulen for puncturing has the disadvantage that the portion of the plastic tubing that remains in the body cavity during the withdrawal of the body fluid can become pinched due to body movements, or moving body organs. When this is encountered, the further withdrawal of liquid can become difficult or impossible.
The above two discussed puncturing methods are particularly in use in connection with so-called "Pleuroergussen", i.e. liquid accumulations in the body cavity surrounding the lung. Here it is necessary to prevent the pointed needle end from injuring the lung as it moves during normal breathing and, over the longer term, assure a reliable removal of even large liquid accumulations.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a puncturing set for reliably withdrawing liquids from body cavities without undesirably injuring the surrounding body tissue.
A puncturing set constructed in accordance with the present invention has a housing fitted with a flexible, tubular hose extension. A tubular puncturing needle is disposed in and extends axially over substantially the length of the hose extension. The needle is axially movable between an extended position in which a forward, pointed, intake end of the needle projects from the free end of the hose extension, and a retracted position in which the pointed end is disposed inside the hose extension. The rearwardly located, outlet end of the puncturing needle is coupled to a fluid withdrawal mechanism and a sealing arrangement is placed between the needle and the housing.
In the puncturing set of the present invention, the axially movable puncturing needle fulfills two tasks. The first is to pierce through the body wall when the puncturing set is placed in position. The second is to stabilize the hose extension during the withdrawal of liquid to prevent it from becoming pinched. During this phase, the needle is retracted sufficiently far into the hose extension that its pointed end no longer protrudes from the forward end of the hose. As a result, there is no danger that body tissue will be injured during the removal of liquid. A sealing arrangement is provided to prevent ambient air from flowing through an annular channel formed between the puncturing needle and an inner side of the hose extension to prevent an impairment of the liquid withdrawal.
In a particularly advantageous embodiment of the present invention, the sealing arrangement is defined by an inner sealing section formed about the circumference of the puncturing needle and an outer sealing section which is formed on an inside of the housing. The sealing sections are arranged so that they are axially spaced apart when the puncturing needle is in its extended position. In this embodiment, a seal is formed only when the puncturing needle is moved into its retracted position.
In a further, advantageous embodiment of the invention the inner sealing sector is defined by a conical sealing body which is placed about the circumference of the puncturing needle and defines a sealing surface that is obliquely inclined relative to the needle axis. A base of the conical sealing body faces in the direction towards the pointed end of the puncturing needle. The outer sealing section forms an inwardly facing conical surface in the housing. This assures a particularly reliable seal. It is further preferred that at least one of the two cone surfaces has a spherically convex shape.
Another advantageous embodiment of the invention forms the inner sealing section as a spherical sealing body which is placed over the circumference of the puncturing needle. In this embodiment of the invention, the outer sealing section forms a partially spherical inner surface of a hollow space in the housing. In this embodiment, a reliable seal is formed by advancing the spherical sealing body into the partially spherically formed hollow space of the housing.
A particularly preferred embodiment of the present invention enables a locking of the needle in its retracted position. This prevents an unintentional movement of the needle into its extended position, thereby assuring that the pointed end of the needle remains within the hose extension.
It is particularly advantageous when the locking mechanism is constructed as a combined sealing and ratchet arrangement, because this assures a simple and effective locking of the retracted needle.
In a preferred embodiment, the aft end of the needle is axially immovably fixed to a yoke-like cap. A thread, or a thread-like arrangement, connects the cap to the housing. This permits a reliable movement of the needle into its retracted position by rotating the cap relative to the housing. Markings can be applied to the housing and the cap to indicate the relative position of the needle.
Alternatively, an outer thread can be applied to the needle. The housing then has an inner thread for engaging the thread on the needle.
In another embodiment, the wall of the hose extension has radially oriented openings in the vicinity of the free end of the hose. These openings permit a reliable removal of the liquid even if, for example, the front end of the hose extension becomes plugged by tissue particles or the like.
In a further embodiment of the invention, the puncturing is securely held in place while it extends into the body cavity. This is achieved with a radially outwardly expandable wall segment on the exterior of the forward end of the hose extension. A pressure channel extends longitudinally through the wall of the hose extension and communicates with a pressure connection in the aft portion of the housing. By pressurizing the flexible wall segment with a fluid through the pressure channel, the wall segment becomes inflated, expands itself and, therefore, prevents the unintentional removal of the needle through the body wall through which it was initially inserted. The puncturing set is removed by simply releasing the pressurized fluid in the expandable wall segment of the hose extension. This causes the flexible wall segment to retract itself to an outer diameter which is substantially equal to the outer diameter of the hose extension.
When the aft end of the needle extends into a housing chamber that is fluidly coupled to the fluid withdrawal mechanism, the latter can be mounted directly on the housing.
The withdrawal of fluid from a body cavity by means of a syringe or suction pump is possible by including a three-way valve in the fluid withdrawal mechanism. A first port of the valve is for connection to the syringe or pump, while a hose connects a second exit port of the valve with a fluid collection container. In this manner, the fluid can be sucked from the body cavity with the syringe, and by turning the three-way valve, the fluid can be forced from the syringe into the collection container. This speeds up the emptying of the body cavity because it eliminates the need to constantly reattach the syringe during the removal of the liquid.
It is further advantageous to provide a sight window in the housing or in the rear portion of the puncturing needle. With such a sight window one can determine when, after the initial penetration of the puncturing set into the body cavity, it has reached the liquid pool or accumulation that is to be removed, because at that point liquid begins to flow through either the needle, or laterally of the needle through the hose extension, into the housing, where it becomes visible through the sight window.
The invention is further explained by way of an example and with reference to the following drawings:
FIG. 1 shows a puncturing set constructed in accordance with a first embodiment of the invention and with its puncturing needle in the extended position;
FIG. 2 illustrates the puncturing set shown in FIG. 1 with the needle in its retracted position;
FIG. 3 shows a modified seal and a drive mechanism for the puncturing needle made in accordance with an alternative embodiment of the invention;
FIG. 4 shows another embodiment of the actuating mechanism for the needle;
FIG. 5 shows a further embodiment of a seal for the puncturing needle;
FIG. 6 shows a still further embodiment of the seal for the puncturing needle; and
FIG. 7 is another embodiment of the present invention in the form of an alternative construction of a forward end thereof.
FIG. 1 shows a puncturing set constructed in accordance with the invention. It has a housing 1 with an aft, enlarged housing segment 2 and a forward hose extension 3. The aft housing segment 2 and the forward hose extension 3 are coaxial. They can be of unitary, one-piece construction or they can be assembled from parts which are secured to each other with any one of several connecting techniques such as by bonding. Housing 1 with its aft segment 2 and hose extension 3 is preferably made of a physiologically inert plastic material.
A puncturing needle 4 is axially movably disposed inside housing 1. The puncturing needle 4 extends over the full length of hose extension 3. An annular channel 5 is formed between the outer circumference of puncturing needle 4 and the inner circumference of hose extension 3.
Channel 5 terminates in a forward housing chamber 6 in aft housing segment 2. The end of the housing chamber facing away from the hose extension is formed by a conically converging, outer sealing section 7. A sealing body 8 surrounds the outer circumference of the puncturing needle and is located in the forward housing chamber 6. The aft end of the sealing body defines a conically shaped inner sealing section 9. The angles defined by the two conical sealing sections are substantially equal. FIG. 1 shows the outer sealing section 7 and the inner sealing section 9 axially spaced apart.
A bore 10 extends axially in a rearward direction; that is, away from hose extension 3, from the forward housing chamber 6. On its circumference, the axial bore 10 has thread grooves 11 with a steep thread angle. In the vicinity of axial bore 10, the outer circumference of the puncturing needle 4 has radially protruding threads which engage the thread grooves 11 and which have a thread angle equal to that of the thread grooves 11.
The aft end of housing 1 includes a blind bore 13 that is coaxial and in fluid communication with axial housing bore 10. The aft end of puncturing needle 4 projects past the axial bore 10 and into blind bore 13. In the area of the blind bore, a connector 16' is fluidly coupled to and sealingly extends about the aft end of the puncturing needle. The connecting piece 16' is part of the fluid withdrawal mechanism 14 of which, in FIG. 1, only a three-way valve 15 is additionally shown.
The three-way valve 15 has an intake 16 and the aft end of needle 4 is sealingly coupled and non-rotationally secured to the intake. The three-way valve further has a first outlet 17 at a right angle to the axial direction of housing 1. A second outlet 18 is substantially coaxial with the axis of housing 1. The three-way valve 15 has on its inside a known valve body 19 which can be switched between a first position, in which intake 16 is coupled to first outlet 17, and a second position, in which the first outlet is coupled to the second outlet 18. A collection container (not shown) is fluidly connected to the second outlet 18 by a hose (not shown) in a manner well known to those of skill in the art. The first outlet 17 is constructed so that a syringe or pump (not shown) can be attached to it.
Housing segment 2 further has a sight window 20 in the area of the forward housing chamber 6. The sight window permits one to view the forward housing chamber 6 from the exterior.
FIG. 1 shows the puncturing set in a position in which the pointed end 21 of the puncturing needle projects from the forward free end of hose extension 3.
FIG. 2 shows the same puncturing set as FIG. 1 but with needle 4 in its retracted position in which its pointed end 21 is disposed within hose extension 3. To place the needle in this position, three-way valve 15 is axially moved from its forward position, shown in FIG. 1, to its rearwardly retracted position, shown in FIG. 2, by turning thread connection 22, formed by thread grooves 11 and projecting threads 12, to translate the rotary motion into an axial movement of the needle. As the needle is threaded in a rearward direction, sealing body 8 moves with the needle rearwardly to engage the inner and outer sealing sections 7, 9 and form a seal between them.
FIG. 3 shows an alternative embodiment of the puncturing set of the present invention which has a larger diameter and a lesser length. In the example shown in FIG. 3, as well as the examples shown in the succeeding figures, like parts are given the same reference numerals as were used in the example shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
A radially expandable wall segment 23 is provided in the vicinity of the forward end of hose extension 3. It may, for example, be constructed of rubber or another flexible and elastic material. The flexible wall segment 23 surrounds an inner space 24 that circumvents the hose extension. It is in fluid communication with a pressure connection 26 in aft housing segment 2 via a pressure channel 25 in the wall of hose extension 3. Pressurized air or inert gas can be directed through connection 26 and channel 5 into inner space 24, which causes the flexible wall segment 23 and the inner space 24 to inflate into a balloon-like annular expansion about the outer side of hose extension 3. The annular expansion 27 prevents the puncturing set from unintentionally sliding out of the body.
The aft end of the puncturing set in FIG. 3 has a cap 28 with an inner thread 29 in engagement with an outer thread 30 on an aft end of the aft housing segment 2. A cross wall 31 extends at right angle to the axis of puncturing needle 4 across the inside of cap 28. The aft end of puncturing needle 4 is at least axially immovably secured thereto in a yoke-like fashion. Retainer rings 32, 33 are located on the rearwardly and forwardly facing sides, respectively, of cross wall 31 and clamp the puncturing needle 4 against axial motion. Accordingly, puncturing needle 4 can be moved between its limiting positions by turning cap 28.
The aft portion of cap 28 forms a hollow space 34 which is in fluid communication with the aft end of puncturing needle 4. A sight window 35 is formed at an appropriate location in the wall of cap 28 which defines the hollow space 34.
The aft end of cap 28 has an outlet channel 36 which is in fluid communication with hollow space 34. The outlet channel can also be in fluid communication with a three-way valve 15 that is formed as a part of cap 28 shown in FIG. 3.
FIG. 4 schematically illustrates an alternative to the puncturing set shown in FIG. 3. Puncturing needle 4 is axially fixed with respect to a cap 28' in a manner similar to that in which the needle is axially fixed to yoke-like cross wall 31 of cap 28 shown in FIG. 3. However, cap 28 is not threadably attached to the aft housing segment 2. In its place a ratchet mechanism permits axial movement of cap 28 (together with puncturing needle 4) between two terminal positions at which ratchets lock. For example, the outer periphery of aft housing segment 2 can be shaped so that the ratchet element of cap 28' can engage it. As an alternative to the just-described axial motion mechanism, the ratchet mechanism can also be constructed as a rotary mechanism. In such a case, the ratchet element on cap 28' engages and moves along a screw-like track on the outer surface of the aft housing segment. Ends of the track define ratchet elements which engage and thereby releasably lock the cap 28' in its terminal positions.
Another embodiment is illustrated in FIG. 5. The puncturing needle 4 is surrounded by a spherically shaped sealing body 8'. It is preferably constructed of an elastic material, as is true for sealing body 8. An aft housing chamber 6' is formed in aft housing segment 2 and communicates with the forward housing chamber 6 through an opening which has a diameter that is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of spherical sealing body 8'. The sealing body can be moved from the forward housing chamber 6 into the aft housing chamber 6' by resiliently deforming the constriction between the two chambers. The aft housing chamber 6' is also spherical, or at least partially spherical, so that it can receive the spherically shaped sealing body 8' and form a seal when the puncturing needle 4 is in its retracted position.
A particularly simple alternative construction for the seal is shown in FIG. 6. A radial seal 8" in the form of an O-ring or a packing, as is well known, establishes a seal between the inner diameter of aft housing segment 2 and the circumference of puncturing needle 4.
FIG. 7 illustrates an alternative embodiment for the forward end of hose extension 3. The free end of the hose extension has lateral openings 37, 37' that extend through the wall of the hose in a vicinity of the free end thereof. The lateral openings 37, 37' permit a liquid flow into the hose extension 3 and the interior of puncturing needle 4 when the opening 38 at the free end of the hose extension becomes plugged.
The process of puncturing is described by reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. Puncturing needle 4 is initially moved into the extended position shown in FIG. 1 in which the pointed end 21 of the needle projects from the end of hose extension 3. The puncturing set is then advanced through the body wall into the body cavity. In the process, the pointed end 21 of the puncturing needle and a portion of the hose extension 3 also enter the body. As soon as the flow of body fluid into the forward housing chamber 6 becomes visible through side window 20, a judgment can be made if the desired point in the body cavity has been reached. Thereafter, the puncturing needle 4 is retracted into the position shown in FIG. 2 in which the pointed end 21 of the needle is completely inside hose extension 3. The puncturing needle 4 stabilizes the hose extension made of plastic and prevents its pinching. At the same time, the pointed needle end is prevented from causing undesired damage to tissue walls surrounding the body cavity. When available, the annular expansion 27 shown in FIG. 3 is inflated so that, upon a slight retraction of the puncturing set, the annular expansion prevents the puncturing set from further sliding out of the body tissue. The body fluid that is to be removed can now flow under the prevailing pressure to the collection container. The flow of body fluid can be from the interior of the puncturing needle into the fluid withdrawal mechanism 14, or into a syringe attached to first outlet 17 of three-way valve 15. By switching the three-way valve, the fluid can then flow through the second outlet 18 into the collection container. Following the withdrawal of the desired amount of body fluid from the body cavity, the annular expansion 27 is deflated and the puncturing set is retracted from the body.

Fantasea Cruising Sydney

City Explorer Bus
The open-topped, red double-decker bus that drives around city streets is the City Explorer. Buy a ticket and you can hop on and hop off at 34 different stops that include all the major Sydney attractions - Darling Harbour, The Rocks, Chinatown, Circular Quay, the Opera House, the Royal Botanic Garden, Hyde Park, Kings Cross and Woolloomooloo. Tours run every day, all day.
Extremely user-friendly and covering much of the greater Sydney region, buses are a convenient way to get around Sydney. Major bus thoroughfares in the city centre are located on York Street, Pitt Street, Castlereagh Street and Elizabeth Street, and around Circular Quay and Sydney Central Station.
Make sure you pick up an Opal card, which you can use on all public transport including trains, ferries and buses. You can get an Opal card at a participating supermarket, newsagent or convenience store and simply load value onto it either when you first get it, online, or at a train station. Enjoy the benefits of cheaper travel, daily travel caps and a $2.50 Sunday fare cap. You can find more Opal card information here.
Buses in the city and major Sydney hubs are prepay only (cashless) between 7am and 7pm Monday to Friday, so you'll need to have your ticket or Opal card before you board. The Metrobus network (characterised by red buses) comprises 13 routes, providing high-frequency, high-capacity links across Sydney. Sydney Buses also provide accessible buses for people with wheelchairs, prams and ride-on scooters.
Tripview is a great public transport app you can use to find your way around Sydney. It presents real-time data provided by Transport for NSW, meaning you can see exactly how far away your bus, train or ferry is and when it is expected to arrive. For timetables and routes, including late night options, call 131 500 or go to the Transport Info website and use the route planning tool.
For longer journeys, many shuttle bus companies provide transport between the airport, the city centre, hotels and most Sydney suburbs and close to Sydney. These buses need to be pre-booked.

Finding ways to attract young talent
How to attract young people into manufacturing? That is the biggest, long-term issue facing the U.S. plastics industry, mold making and every single factory in the country. It's safe to say that recruiting young people, teaching them the skills ... heck, just getting them interested in manufacturing, is way more important than new technology and resin prices.

FiftyThree CEO: Pencil coming to Europe, 2014 will be about users collaborating
FiftyThree, the company behind the popular Paper drawing app on the iPad, has told Pocket-lint that it is working on bringing it's own-made stylus, called Pencil, to Europe.
"The response to Pencil has been incredible," Georg Petschnigg, co-founder and CEO, told Pocket-lint via phone from the company's HQ in Seattle. "We are working to get Pencil to Europe as quick as we can."
When pushed as to when "as quick as we can" actually was, Petschnigg was coy about giving a specific date, but said we would be one of the first to know.
Launched in the US at the end of 2013, the Pencil stylus quickly went out of stock, but Pentschnigg says that the company is starting to get on top of stock levels. At the time of writing customers are still having to wait 3-4 weeks in the US and Canada.
READ: FiftyThree interview: From Microsoft Courier roots to Paper and Pencil
The $49.99 digital stylus, which comes in walnut or graphic colours, boasts palm rejection so you can rest your hand on the iPad screen, as a rubber to erase errors.
In other positive news for Paper users, the one from FiftyThree not Facebook, Petschnigg also told us the company has big plans.
"Paper was about being to create your ideas, Pencil is about bringing the hand to life, and this year it will be about collaboration."
Petschnigg didn't say how that collaboration would be realised, but it does suggest that Paper users will be able to look forward to sharing their work in a much easier way that they can currently later in the year.
