New Curcumin Derivative Has Anti-Diabetic Effects
by Mita Majumdar on July 26, 2012 at 2:40 PM Health In Focus - G J E 4
Scientists from Egypt found that the novel water soluble curcumin derivative (NCD) improves lipid profile and oxidative status and in small doses shows anti-diabetic actions. NCD retains the essential potencies of natural curcumin.
With more than 350 million people living with diabetes globally, it has become one of the most researched disorders of the time. Evidence also shows that complications of diabetes are associated with oxidative stress due to generation of free radicals in the body, especially the reactive oxygen species (ROS).
AdvertisementHeme-oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the degradation of heme (iron containing component of hemoglobin) to produce biliverdin, iron, and carbon monoxide. Earlier studies have shown that HO-1 helps in cellular defense against a number of tissue injuries, which means up-regulation of this enzyme helps to counteract the adverse change that would destabilize the equilibrium in the tissue. It is also well known for its antioxidant boosting properties and anti-apoptotic (anti cell-death) actions. Curcumin has been reported to induce HO-1 expression and protect the cell against oxidative stress.
Turmeric, a spice widely used in Indian cuisine, has curcumin as its active ingredient. Many studies have shown the efficacy of curcumin as an antioxidant and as a therapeutic agent for number of ailments including diabetes. However, because of poor absorption and rapid metabolism, curcumin can not be sufficiently used by the body.
So, Mohamed T Abdel Aziz and his colleagues used a new water soluble curcumin derivative (Patent pending PCT/EG2010/000008) called NCD to evaluate the anti-diabetic effects and effects on diabetes-induced ROS generation and oxidative degradation of lipids in type-1 diabetes.
They used this new derivative containing 3 percent curcumin on 50 female experimental animals for 45 days although only 46 animals remained after 45 days. The animals were grouped 10 each into -
control group,
control group receiving curcumin derivative,
diabetic group,
diabetic group receiving curcumin derivative, and
diabetic group receiving curcumin derivative and HO inhibitor ZnPP.
The study results published in the journal Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome, revealed that -
Significant lowering of the plasma glucose and increase in the plasma insulin was observed in the diabetic group treated with NCD.
NCD significantly decreased the mean plasma cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and triglycerides levels.
NCD significantly increased the plasma HDL cholesterol level.
Treatment with NCD significantly increased HO-1 expression and subsequent HO-activity.
To determine whether the action of curcumin is mediated by inducing HO-1, the researchers administered the HO inhibitor (ZnPP) to the group of diabetic rats receiving oral curcumin derivative. The group showed significant increase in the plasma glucose level and a significant decrease in insulin levels when compared to the other two diabetic groups, suggesting that the hypoglycemic action of curcumin may be, in part, due to HO-1 induction.
The researchers concluded that 'NCD appears to improve the lipid profile in diabetic rats by lowering total cholesterol, LDL, and triglycerides, while raising HDL levels. It is believed that curcumin exerts its cholesterol lowering actions by modulating cholesterol absorption, degradation, or elimination, rather than through an antioxidant mechanism. NCD also improves oxidative status, protects and enhances endogenous defenses directly proved by decreasing lipid peroxides (malondialdehyde) in pancreas & liver'.

Privilege Speech of Sen. Jinggoy Estrada, November 6, 2006
Posted: August 6th, 2008 @ 1:17am
A lot of significant events affecting the nation as a whole have happened since Congress went on recess last October. With your kind indulgence, I humbly take the floor and invoke my personal and collective privilege as a senator and as a proud member of the Senate that has lately become one of the few remaining standing fortresses in our ongoing battle to defend our Constitution, our democracy and our nation of eighty million Filipinos.
Mga kaakibat at magigiting na mga halal na Senador ng bayan at mga kapwa tagapagtanggol ng ating namimiligrong Saligang Batas at demokrasya, nais kong talakayin ang ilan sa mga mahahalaga at napapanahong paksa na maaring maging dahilan ng pagkawasak ng ating bansa.
In 2004, during my first privilege speech in this Chamber, I denounced the suppression of our democratic rights, particularly our freedom to peacefully assemble for purposes of redressing our grievances against this repressive regime, as protesters and demonstrators were being cruelly and brutally dispersed after being denied of a rally permit. In my speech, I warned our people about a creeping and virtual martial law being foisted and unleashed by the usurper in Malacañang to quell the rising voices of dissent and the swelling ranks of the opposition to her administration.
Since the vicious and bloody dispersal of EDSA TRES in May 2001 and up to the present, many of our concerned countrymen, who were merely exercising their democratic rights guaranteed by our Constitution, were being injured, maimed, intimidated, tortured, kidnapped, and even summarily killed by the death squads of the great pretender in Malacañang, and by her power grabbing coconspirators and vote-snatching allies in the military and police establishments.
Thereafter, this Representation kept on denouncing and condemning inside and outside this noble Chamber the unrelenting repression and iron-fist policies of our infamous fake President who has single-handedly transformed Malacañang from the peoples palace into a pseudo-garrison, as the illegal arrests, detentions, tomes, extrajudicial killings of militant activists and other personalities critical of her regime continued.
Fortunately, my fellow defenders of democracy, our gallant and heroic stand against Malacañang have gained widespread support, so much so that we have caught the attention and the grave concern of the international community, local human rights groups and advocates; thanks in part to our very own Commission on Human Rights, which has strongly condemned, in international circles, the Arroyo regimes culture of impunity.
We have also exposed and denounced the widespread and shameful corruption in this administration, from the scandals and ownership of the not-so-secret Jose Pidal accounts and the rampant big-time smuggling; the overpriced and expensive Diosdado Macapagal Boulevard and other infrastructure projects; the mind-staggering commissions and kickbacks on the IMPSA and other government contracts; the 2004 election fraud that ramified into the fertilizer fund scam; the Garci tapes scandal; the road-user tax scam; and the OWWA-Philhealth scam; and so many others. The latest in Glorias litany of corruption and crimes against the people was the multibillion peso malversation of public funds to finance the Malacañang initiated Peoples Initiative. The evidence in these cases are so glaring that no amount of subterfuge can cover the stench.
Pero hanggang ngayon, may naparusahan na ba sa mga malawakang pagnanakaw na nagaganap sa pamahalaan at sa paglabag ng mga batas na nagtataguyod ng mga karapatang pantao? Ano po yung ginagawa ng ating Ombudsman?
And yet, for cases of misconduct and allegations of ghost employees without any specifications, without any particulars, without solid evidence, Malacañang and the Ombudsman go to town to suspend local officials, particularly those who they deemed are thorns on their side.
For all these anomalies and scandals, it is the usurper in Malacañang who deserves to he put on preventive suspension so that she cannot use the powers and authority, the influence, and the vast resources of the presidency to cover up the crimes she committed against our people.
The law is clear, Section 22 of Republic Act No. 6770, also known as the Ombudsman Act of 1989, states that The Office of the Ombudsman shall have the power to investigate any serious misconduct in office allegedly committed by officials removable by impeachment, for the purpose of filing a verified complaint for impeachment, if warranted.
But can we expect Ombudsman Gutierrez to lift a single finger against her benefactor in the palace?
On the other hand, the specters of tyranny, authoritarianism, and of blatant government corruption and abuse, continue to haunt our already destitute and forsaken land today.
We console ourselves with the fact that Malacañang had continuously tried, and yet it has been rebuffed by the Supreme Court, through the vigilance of our heroic people, in many of our battles before the Courts of Justice.
We should never forget the barrage of treacherous attacks against our Constitution: from the declaration of the state of rebellion; the issuance of Presidential Proclamation 1017; the unleashing of the calibrated preemptive response; the destabilization of the legislative process through Executive Order 464 and Memorandum Order 108; and last but not the least, the grand deception according to the Supreme Court, known as the peoples initiative brouhaha.
Our magistrates should be congratulated, especially those who voted against the peoples initiative, for seeing beneath the veneer of this sham. They have shown that our Supreme Court remains fiercely independent and cannot be influenced even in the face of extreme pressure, quoting the statements of Chief Justice Artemio Panganiban himself.
The verdict is in. The Sigaw ng Bayan signatures are as fake as the pirated discs in Carriedo and Divisoria and as counterfeit as the confiscated coins apprehended by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas.
Congratulations should likewise be given to all our colleagues in this Chamber for unanimously standing up against this constitutional mockery being foisted upon our people. May the Senate continue to he a shining bastion and symbol of our constitutional democracy.
Unfortunately, and I would like to emphasize how unfortunate this is for our democracy, the same accolade and congratulations that this humble Representation has just poured and conveyed to the magnificent members of the Judiciary cannot be extended to the Office of the Ombudsman.
Why? Is it because Malacañang has already succeeded in desecrating, and some people would even venture to say, prostituting, the once sacred and independent institution known as the Office of the Ombudsman?
Ayaw ko nang magpaliguy-ligoy pa. Hindi naman kaila sa ating mga kababayan na ang kasalukuyang nanunungkulan bilang Ombudsman, na si Atty. Merceditas Gutierrez, ay tuta ng Malakanyang na handang gawin lahat ng utos ng kanyang amo, lalung-lalo na ang asawa ni Gloria Macapagal Arroyo.
Marahil ay ito ang hindi masikmura ni dating Ombudsman
Simeon Marcelo, na dating partner sa law office ni Defense Secretary Avelino CNZ, kaya tuluyan na silang nag-resign.
Marahil ay hindi rin inaasahan ni Kalihim Nonong Cruz na walang pakundangang gagamitin ni Ginang Arroyo ang makinarya ng pamahalaan. pati na mga pamahalaang lokal, kasama na ang bilyong-bilyong pondo ng bayan, para sa pagsulong ng isang hangaring pang-personal, ang peoples initiative dikuno ng taong-bayan.
Kaya ipinaaabot ko ang aking paghanga at pagpupugay kay Kalihim Nonong Cruz sa kanyang pagbibitiw ng kanyang tungkulin biiang Kalihim ng National Defense. Sapagkat sa kanyang maginoong pamamaraan, sa kanyang delicadeza, kahit hindi siya gaano nagsasalita, mas malakas ang pagsabog ng kanyang mensahe para sa taong-bayan ukol sa kanyang pagkadismaya kay Ginang Arroyo at sa kasalukuyang rehimen.
Despite my initial opposition to his appointment as defense secretary, Nonong Cruz turned out to be a revelation in the defense establishment with his laser focus on the modernization and professionalization of the military, and his efforts to insulate it from future election anomalies and partisan politics.
Palace insiders have reportedly said that he averted a major disaster for the country early this year when he vigorously opposed the proposal of other Cabinet secretaries to have Mrs. Arroyo declare martial law. Many have confirmed that the soft-spoken and low-profile secretary is no sycophant, and he is reportedly one of the few Cabinet members, if not the only one, who could say no to personal and political agenda of Gloria Arroyo and Mr. Mike Jose Pidal Arroyo.
And this can be attested by no other than one of our esteemed colleagues, Sen. Franklin Drilon who has quoted in the The Philippine Daily Inquirer published today, and I repeat: Sen. Frank Drilon said Cruz is the only Cabinet member who could say no to the President. He objected to the plan to declare martial law last January. Kung hindi pala dahil kay Secretary Cruz, under martial law na pala ang buong Pilipinas.
Secretary Cruz has proven his mettle as a topnotch lawyer for adhering to the rule of law, and for valuing his good name and reputation over and above partisan politics and personal ambitions. We need a few more good men the likes of Secretary Cruz, who has a sense of decency even though he has been closely identified with long-time clients in the persons of Mrs. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo and Mr. Mike Arroyo, who apparently have no delicadeza and sense of decency whatsoever.
I call on all the few good men and women in the Arroyo administration to follow the example of Secretary Cruz, and those before him, to tender your resignation and withdraw your support from the illegal, unpopular, oppressive, and morally bankrupt regime of Mrs. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo.
At para kay Ginang Arroyo. nais kong ipaabot ang isang hamon. Ngayon na mawawala na si Kaiihim Cruz sa iyong Gabinete sa katapusan ng buwan, wala nang malaking hadlang sa iyong kagustuhan na magdeklara ng martial law. Hinahamon ko po kayo, Ginang Arroyo, sampu ng iyong rnga malalapit na tagapayo, na magdeklara ka ng martial law upang matapos na ang inyong kalupitan sa mamamayan at pagsasamantala sa kaban ng bayan.
Dito natin makikita kung ang mas nakararaming matitino at mapagmahal sa bayan na mga pinuno. mga kawani at mga kawani ng pamahalaan ay susuporta sa inyo o sa pwersa ng masang Pilipino.
Tinitiyak ko na sa pagdedeklara mo ng martial law ay bulkang sasabog ang galit ng mamamayang Pilipino, na hanggang sa ngayon ay matiising naghihintay at taimtim na nananalangin na kusang magbibitiw ka na at payapang bababa sa pwestong hindi naman sa iyo.
Sa iyong paghahangad na lalo pang tumagal sa kapangyarihan, pwersahan ka nang patatalsikin at palalayasin ng mga mamamayang mulat na sa katotohanan. At walang magagawa ang iilang mga nakapaiigid sa iyo na mga tiwaling kasamahan mo.

Gunter Hampel (vibes, bass clarinet, flute)
Music From Europe (ESP 1042)
Gunter Hampel (vibes, bass clarinet, flute),
Willem Breuker (soprano, alto, tenor & baritone saxes; clarinet, bass clarinet), Piet Veening (bass), Pierre Courbois (percussion).
Composed by Gunter Hampel.
Recorded: Baarn, Holland, December 21, 1966
Rating: 89/100 (learn more)
Wow, and you thought "Klactoveesedstene" was tough to pronounce! Well, no matter. The fun here is in the listening. During the composition's opening minutes, Willem Breuker and Gunter Hamel run incredible circles around each other – clarinets, flutes and saxophone careening with abandon. Some full-band cacophony (my goodness, Breuker might give Peter Brotzmann a run for his money) leads into a Hampel/Corbois vibraphone/drum duet of sorts. This takes us slowly back into horns-behaving-badly madness. Hampel dedicated this piece to Eric Dolphy. The result is certainly in that spirit. When the last cymbal strike rings off into the distance, you will find yourself reaching for the repeat button.

For the first time since 2008, one team will have two players named finalists for the Calder Memorial Trophy as Tampa Bay Lightning forwards Tyler Johnson and Ondrej Palat, along with Colorado center Nathan MacKinnon were named the top three first-year players this season.
The winner will be announced Tuesday, June 24, during the 2014 NHL Awards from Encore Theater at Wynn Las Vegas. The 2014 NHL Awards will be broadcast by NBCSN in the United States and CBC in Canada.
Tyler Johnson - 24G, 26A 50Pts
Johnson has had time to hone his skills the past two seasons in the AHL, which Palat and MacKinnon haven't, gives him both an advantage and disadvantage. Johnson, the first undrafted Calder Finalist since 1991, scored 24 goals to set a Lightning rookie record and tie MacKinnon for the lead among NHL rookies. He also led NHL rookies in ice time with 1,540:20 minutes and face offs with 1,275.
Nathan MacKinnon - 24G, 39A 63Pts
The Avalanche hit it big this year with the 2013 NHL Draft's first pick. MacKinnon led NHL rookies in almost every stat line with 24 goals, 39 assists, 63 points, 8 goals on the power play, 5 game winners, and 241 shots. MacKinnon joins teammates Matt Duchene, Gabriel Landeskog, and Paul Stastny as the Avalanche's fourth Calder Finalist in eight years.
Ondrej Palat - 23G, 36A 59Pts
Palat led first year players in Plus/Minus at a +32, was named January and March Rookie of the Month and fell just three points short of setting the Lightning record for points by a rookie. The 208th overall pick in 2011, also led all first-year players in scoring after January 1st with 44 points in 42 games.
Prediction: It'll come down to Palat or MacKinnon, but with comparisons to Sidney Crosby after one season of work, Nathan MacKinnon will be the Calder Memorial Trophy winner for 2013-2014.

2/20NM heavy lace weight
These yarns are spun from the best Mongolian cashmere fibres by Johnstons of Elgin, one of the top cashmere mills in Scotland and the world. The DK weight yarns we sell from Johnstons are some of our softest and fluffiest, but these 2/20Nm yarns are more tightly spun and so seem less fluffy, though they are still soft enough and get softer with washing and with wear. As balanced 2ply yarns they are excellent for knitting too, but they also have very good weaving properties and fascinating color mixes... and the tighter spinning makes them tougher than you might expect..

Common Core State Standards are under pressure by parents and lawmakers are getting the message. They are using legislation to boot the U.S. Department of Education's indoctrination of students in their districts.
In its usual display of arrogance, the Department thought that Common Core was a done deal but instead they found that both parents and teachers have rebelled against the program when they realized that it dis-empowered local educators and the decision-making and voting public.
Apparently the Obama administration and the Department of Education thought that American parents were like lemmings that would turn over the education of their children to faceless bureaucrats who would also compile information about students without even knowing how it would be used.
Instead Americans are demanding local control of their schools and politicians that want to be re-elected are responding. It is evident that the voices of the electorate are demanding that education be left to localties and states and the elites that are ignoring them are facing a rebellion.
According to Lance T. Izumi's article in the National Review
...the collusion to force Common Core on American public education was endorsed by the National Governors Association (NGA) and the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO). However parents and the public were shut out of their meetings.
Truth in American Education has published a list of states that are considering taking action or have already pulled out of the Common Core Assessment Consortium.
States that have already discarded it include:
- Alabama
- Alaska
- Florida
- Georgia
- Indiana
- Kansas
- Oklahoma
- Pennsylvania
- Utah
States considering withdrawing include
- Iowa
- Kentucky
- Michigan
- North Carolina
- States than did not join
- Minnesota
- Nebraska
- Texas
- Virginia
While the Obama administration continues to push Common Core's liberal indoctrination on American students lawmakers, especially those running for office or hoping to be reelected, are responding to parents who are objecting and threatening to abandon schools that use it. .

Motorola launched the Moto E on May 13. Moto E is a new smartphone from an excellent manufacturer with the extremely low price of $129 and no contract requirement. Compare that to the price of the iPhone 5s which is $649 without a contract while a new iPhone 4s with two-year-old technology costs $450, off contract. This May 13 article on CNET.com quotes Mark Randall, Motorola's chief operating officer, on the thought behind introducing a low-cost smartphone: "If you're a consumer who doesn't want to spend $600 on a phone, you're getting a raw deal."
Motorola is in third place worldwide among smartphone manufacturers, after Apple and Samsung. Motorola's leaders believe there is an untapped market for low-cost smartphones. They have priced the Moto E at the low end in an attempt to get buyers who would otherwise buy old-style cell phones that lack the ability to surf the Internet.
At the moment, no U.S. carriers are offering the Moto E. The low-cost smartphones may be more popular outside the U.S. than within as cell phone data plans are priced differently in other countries. The major U.S. carriers charge high monthly prices compared to pricing in many other locations. For example, if you were to buy a Moto E and bring it here, you might easily end up paying from $50 to $100 each month for voice, text and data, even when providing your own phone and selecting the lowest priced carrier. For comparison, a friend in Europe pays as little as ten euros per month, or about $13, for voice and data services.
Motorola has made cell phones for decades. They've been one of the primary makers of Droids for Verizon in recent years. Google owns Motorola and is currently selling the entity to Lenovo, the Chinese technology company who bought the IBM PC line of business about 15 years ago.
Specs: Moto E comes with only 4 gigabytes (GB) of storage so it's not going to hold as many photos and apps as most smartphones. The iPhones come with 16 GB, and Apple has also been introducing cheaper models of last year's phone with 8 GB. Moto E is the first smartphone we'v noticed with only 4 GB. According to Re/Code.net, Moto E will offer dual SIM card capability in markets where there's a demand for that, meaning owners can use one phone to connect to different carriers' networks. Moto E runs the latest version of the Android operating system: Android 4.4 or KitKat.

Football: Weekly Picks - Redskins at Seahawks
Before we get to this week's plays, one important reminder: The picks you're about to get are not always among the "premium" plays I release to my paying customers on the weekend. Line moves, injuries, suspensions, weather, etc., they all influence whether I upgrade or downgrade — or totally discard — the complimentary selections you read here each week.
Why does that happen, you ask? Well, what you have to realize is that my deadline for this column is Thursday morning. As I said above, many factors influence my decision on the group of games I ultimately release to my paying customers between then and Sunday morning. A lot can happen in those 80-plus hours.
Without further delay, let's get to this week's freebies:
+3.5 Redskins at SeahawksThis is how unpredictable the NFL has become: A month ago, you could've given me four teams and asked me to pick which one employed Todd Collins as a backup quarterback and I wouldn't have wagered a nickel that I'd guess right. Now, I'm betting on Todd Collins — a guy who, prior to December, hadn't started an NFL game in 10 years — as a small road favorite in one of the more hostile venues in the entire league. I swear it feels like I've stepped into the Twilight Zone.
But believe it or not, my friends, the Redskins are the smart play here. The team enters this game with a ton of momentum, having won and covered four consecutive games, the last three of which were double-digit blowouts. That includes a pair of road routs over the Giants (22-10) and the Vikings (32-21); two teams which, at the time Washington played them, were in must-win situations. And get this: If not for a brain fart by Head Coach Joe Gibbs against Buffalo (17-16 loss when Gibbs was flagged with a personal foul for calling back-to-back timeouts), a six-turnover fest at Tampa Bay (19-13 loss despite a 412-192 yardage advantage), two key fourth-quarter plays at Dallas (28-23 loss despite a 423-359 yardage edge) and a blown nine-point fourth-quarter lead versus Philadelphia (33-25 loss), the Redskins would be riding a nine-game winning streak right now!
As you can see, despite all those gaffes, Washington was in every game it played over the last two months. In fact, aside from an ugly 52-7 loss at New England, the Redskins didn't lose a game by more than eight points all year. The main reason was a defense that held 10 opponents to less than 20 points and yielded just 14.8 points per contest over the season's final six games.
Now, the counterargument is that Seattle played extremely well down the stretch, winning six of its final eight games, with both losses coming after the Seahawks clinched their division. But look at the opponents in those six wins: the 49ers, Bears, Rams, Eagles, Cardinals, and Ravens. Only the Eagles and Cardinals got as far as 8-8 (and the Philly win was gift-wrapped and shipped to Seattle courtesy of four A.J. Feeley interceptions).
Brandon Lang makes another football pick on the Buccaneers vs. the Giants…

Carlos Santana & Mahavishnu John McLaughlin: Meditation
Carlos Santana (acoustic guitar) and John McLaughlin (piano, guitar)
Love Devotion Surrender (Columbia Legacy CK 63593)
Carlos Santana (acoustic guitar), John McLaughlin (piano, guitar), Larry Young (Khalid Yasin) (organ).
Composed by John McLaughlin.
Recorded: New York, October 1972 and March 1973
Rating: 89/100 (learn more)
It is not every day you get to hear guitarist John McLaughlin on piano. On "Meditation" he plays simple but dramatic backing chords on the keyboards. An occasional flourish arises, too. Overdubbed, or the other way around, are McLaughlin and Santana on acoustic guitars. They play a spare spiritual ballad that is similar in tone, but not intent, to their version of Coltrane's "Naima" that appeared on the flip side of the original LP. The two pieces provide quite a contrast to the LOUD cosmic electricity on the rest of the album. It was fitting that "Meditation" was the last cut. The guitarists' fluttering notes and mantra-like chords provide the perfect backdrop for a chill-out. After hearing the previous cut "Let Us Go Into The House of the Lord," you would need that.
I have never been able to confirm Larry Young's participation on this track. There is a sustained note that acts as an introduction to the song. It is either Young on B-3 or a studio trick with the piano. My educated guess favors the first theory.

Hiatt Belt
July 19 2005 at 2:55 PM
Chris Gower
Page 242 of Alex Nichols book shows the Hiatt restraint belt that Pete McCahon had in his collection. Attached here are hopefully better quality photos showing the belt. I have had several various belts over the past 35 years but this one is rather nice. I believe it to be the medium size - it has 5 adjustments for waists measuring from 29 inches to 38 inches. The belt is marked CLIFF WALSALL (this company are still around and are considered one of the best harness and saddle makers in the UK having supplied items to many Royals). It also has the date stamp of 1952 on it and the government broad arrow. The handcuffs are marked Hiatt British Made with the Hiatt logo curved. What is unusual is that the end lock also takes the same key (most Hiatt end locks I have come across take non standard keys). Also in black lettering is KE 0637 which is interesting, several darby type handcuffs have turned up all marked KE 2771 - perhaps various government items were catalogued and marked KE ....
These belts are rare and there are probably less than 20 in collections, do you have one? are there any markings on it?

Nice belt.
Here is a picture of mine. It has the same Cliff Walsall marking, but the date is 1942. It does not have the KE mark. Mine has backstrap Darby handcuffs.

Joe's belt does not become actually official until he puts a picture or, preferably, some pictures of it in the Handcuffs.org Gallery.

Hiatt Belt...
July 19 2005, 9:58 PM
Hello, It would be interesting to know of those who respond with belts in their collection if they could tell the belt size and if they END LOCK is threaded the same as the KEYS for the Cuffs like the first belt?? Joe, could you tell us what size your belt is. I see from the Picture that the End Cap isn't a Backstrap type darby but does the key match the cuffs?? Thanks
Joe Lauher

The belt is small, 30 inches or 76 cm in length. A standard Hiatt key fits both the cuffs and the endlock.

I found this old, but interesting, thread about Hiatt restraint belts.
Like Joe's belt, mine has also the Hiatt backstrap Darbys marked with the
broad arrow used for British government property.
Both cuffs and the front lock takes the same keys. There are unfortunately
no markings on the belt.
Is anyone able to date this belt? My guess is about WWII.
Paul Davies
Re: Hiatt Belt
February 10 2011, 4:44 AM
It is obvious that the > W D (War Department) stamp would suggest it was made during wartime and it is similar to Joe's from 1942.
But were the cuffs recycled. Why it is stamped > WD 7 and then overstamped with 10.
Ian McColl
Re: Hiatt Belt
February 10 2011, 6:38 AM
Hi Paul, 10 appears to be first, maybe the key number, and then it was overstamped.
Hiatt Belt
February 10 2011, 2:48 PM
hi i don't have a belt but a pair of well marked R.C.S. they are marked on the end caps with the key number 1780 on both cuffs and both keys (2 keys),also on both end caps is R.C.S. ,1941,3
Paul Davies
Re: Hiatt Belt
February 10 2011, 3:39 PM
Yes Ian,
I thought that after I responded. Why I suggested that the cuffs might be recycled is because I thought backstrap darbies were made earlier than WW2, more like WW1 and way before that. Can anyone tell when Hiatt stopped making backstraps Darbies. The RCS false backstraps were made into the 50's at least because they are often dated.
Mark RMP
Re: Hiatt Belt
February 10 2011, 6:59 PM
The only input I can add is that in Lars's third picture the end lock appears to have "British Made" stamped on it. I remember once watching an episode of the Antique Roadshow where the expert referred to the exact date that the phrase first appeared on items in general. Unfortunately I can't recall exactly when it was but I believe it came into use around 1920. It is a common method used to date items in general but I've googled the term and can't find anything relevant.
As the end lock may not date to the same period as the rest of the belt the "British Made" mark may not be a reliable indicator in this instance.
Most Military cuffs come with a date on them but I would definitely put it pre WW II and If it wasn't for the end lock I'd even put it pre WWI.
Steve Santini
The cap on the end lock pictured
February 10 2011, 9:13 PM
Is pinned in.
I have only seen this on older Darby restraints.
Later, the plug was put in and just held in by the stamped designs on the end of the lock tube.
Joseph Lauher
Re: Hiatt Belt
February 11 2011, 9:36 AM
I believe Hiatt made a few backstrap Darby cuffs in the period leading up to the second world war. I have one very nice example of one pair stamped British Made and I also have a Hiatt belt with backstrap Darbies with the stamp.
The RCS, JG and MCI pseudo backstrap Darby cuffs were during the war. I have always assumed they did this, because the War Department wanted cuffs that matched Hiatt's backstrap Darbies.

I have a Hiatt belt that I am interested in selling. It is broad arrow marked and is a medium sized belt. Leather is in excellent condition, the cuffs are backstrap darbies, there is an end lock. Comes with 2 keys, one fits the cuffs, the other is smaller and it fits the end lock. I will consider offers here first, and then move on to ebay if I find no one is interested. I will have pictures Saturday afternoon. Please email me if you want pictures.Thanks ....Tom
February 12 2011, 10:31 AM
My Hiatt belt measures 130cm total (51 inches) with adjustments from 92 to 116cm (36 to 46 inches). The front lock didn't come with it. The cuffs are marked 32 and Hiatt, no markings on the belt. 5 slots for adjustment.
The other photos are from a belt interior, or metal liner, that I no longer have. Interesting maybe nevertheless. Notice it has a total of 6 adjustment holes (not all may have been accessible, depending on the leather work).
It's interesting the how the cuffs are mounted is sometimes different. I understand the belt is sometimes referred to as a "hangman's belt". Does anybody have information on that? It might just be a high security restraint as far as I can tell.
Re: Hiatt Belt
February 12 2011, 11:25 AM
Hello all
This is a most interesting post-
so here's my related question....Where would one find a leather maker able to sew thru such Thick leather Hide ?
My first thought would be a saddle maker, I appreciate any info into this matter.
also is that a length steel plating/sheet metal between the layers of leather ?
Re: Hiatt Belt
February 12 2011, 11:35 AM
A harnessmaker or saddle maker would have a sewing machine capable of handling that kind of leather.
You are correct. The belt is, in fact, a steel belt sandwuched between two layers of leather.
Re: Belt
February 13 2011, 4:57 AM
I was actually considering rebuilding the metal one, but it would have cost at least 50 Euros ($65) for the leather, plus the workmanship, plus the cuffs and the front lock (frozen) would have had to be replaced ... . And then, what you have is a non-original belt.

Sun Java Plug-in 1.6.0_10 Certified with the E-Business Suite
By Steven Chan - EBS-Oracle on Oct 22, 2008
Regular readers know that you're now free to use whatever version of the native Sun Java plug-in with the E-Business Suite as long as you meet certain minimum requirements. Nonetheless, the latest Sun JRE is a bit of a new animal, so my team performed an explicit set of certification tests to ensure that it's as compatible as previous releases.
Based on those latest test, we've confirmed that the latest Sun Java Runtime Engine (JRE) native plug-in release 6u10 (JRE 1.6.0_10) is compatible with both Oracle Oracle E-Business Suite Release 11i and 12 on Windows-based desktop clients.
This is the first release from Sun to incorporate the 'Next Generation Java Plug-in' architecture. This architecture can be used with all previous JRE plug-in releases, and provides an option to continue use of the 'classic' java plug-in architecture if required.
The new architecture is supported on:
- Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) 6 and later on Windows XP and Windows Vista desktop clients
JRE 6u10 can be used with Firefox 2.0, however it will not use the new architecture and will simply default to the 'classic' java plug-in by default even with the new architecture turned on.
Note: JRE 6u10 is also compatible with Firefox 3.0. However, we're still working on our certification of the E-Business Suite with Firefox 3 right now. Some bugs have been identified that require some OA Framework layer patches, which we're testing now. I don't have firm schedules for our Firefox 3 certification yet, but you're welcome to monitor or subscribe to this blog for updates, which I'll post as soon as soon as they're available.
Which JRE Versions Are Certified With Which Browsers?
This depends on your Windows operating version and the browser that your firm has deployed. Various combinations of Windows XP, Windows Vista, Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) 6 and 7, and Firefox are now certified with JRE 1.5 and 1.6. To review the new minimum certification levels, see:
- Upgrading Sun J2SE (Native Plug-in) with Oracle Applications 12.0 for Windows Clients (Metalink Note 393931.1)
- Upgrading Sun J2SE (Native Plug-in) with Oracle Applications 11i for Windows Clients (Metalink Note 290807.1)
- New features and changes in the JRE 6u10 Release Notes
- Deploying Sun JRE (Native Plug-in) for Windows Clients in Oracle E-Business Suite 11i (MetaLink Note 290807.1)
- Deploying Sun JRE (Native Plug-in) for Windows Clients in Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 (MetaLink Note 393931.1)

One of the best rueben and potato cakes I've tasted. When visiting Ohio I like to head to the Decent Deli in Blue Ash. Located just north of Cincinnati, Decent Deli has some of the best sandwiches I have tasted. The potato cake is my ultimate goal though. It's warm, crunchy on the outside, moist inside with a wonderful savory garlic flavor. Anyone know where I might get a potato cake in Columbus GA?

Benefits of wheat free diet
by Anna
It can be overwhelming to discover you or a family member have an intolerance to gluten or wheat products. Living with a food intolerance can be very uncomfortable. The benefits of wheat free diet are significant and may improve your quality of life from low to go. Find out why it simply makes sense to change to a gluten free diet.
Why change to a gluten free diet?
Perhaps a medical or health practitioner has suggested the
change. Maybe you have a member of the family who has an
intolerance or allergy. Or it may be as simple as a 'gut
instinct', urging you to explore ways to feel better in your body.
You may be thinking a transition to being gluten free will be tricky. Are you wondering if you'll be deprived of your favourite foods? Is gluten free cooking cooking complicated? Will your family like gluten free recipes? It might seem like a lot of effort to give up wheat and for what result? What are the benefits of a wheat free diet?
Going wheat or gluten free can tremendously enhance your quality of life. Countless people suffer needlessly from the consequences of gluten intolerance, enduring a variety of uncomfortable symptoms. Relief may come easily through altered food habits – and you won't know until you try.
See going gluten free as a nutritional experiment - a research project in which you are the star! Usually it takes 3-6 weeks without any wheat or gluten products to notice improvement, but some people feel better within a couple of days.
What are the benefits of a wheat free diet?
There are multiple benefits of enjoying a gluten free or wheat free diet.
Going wheat or gluten free is a great opportunity to increase whole food variety in your diet. Modern processed foods, (the ones in packets), often made with a few basic refined, over-processed and adulterated ingredients, especially wheat and corn. Whole vegetables, fruits, grains, beans, nuts, seeds and lean meats have more nutritional goodness than refined products. They contain the vitamins and minerals.
* Eating healthier food can actually cost less, especially if you eat more seasonal vegetables. Plus you will literally get more value in nutrients per mouthful, than processed snacks and meals.
* Your body will thank you for it. Unpleasant symptoms may vanish, cravings can disappear, and many people find the kilos dropping away. Alex, one of my Shiatsu clients remarked that her lifelong problems with chronic constipation, bloating and diarrhea vanished when she gave up wheat. Jane, a woman in one of our healthy cooking classes, lost at least 5 kilos within three months of changing to a gluten free diet.
* Your family will be blessed by your newfound passion in the kitchen. Get the kids involved in making some of the healthier sweet treats, and you'll be sure to convert the skeptics. Jane's teenage grandson is celiac and has been discovering a new interest in cooking. He has become an expert at making gluten free breakfast recipes especially smoothies!
How to make gluten free easy
* Become a label reading detective. Even better is to reduce your intake of packet products and increase your use of wholefoods. Introduce one new ingredient and recipe into your repertoire at a time. Take it gently.
* Make big batches of dips like hummus, soups, and main meals in the weekend. Freeze in meal sized portions.
* Keep extra loaves of gluten free bread sliced in the freezer. Toast it when you need it.
* Pre-soak your breakfast grains: we soak our yummy Bircher muesli the night before. If you feel like a hot grain, soak the grain (like quinoa) over night, and pop the pot on to boil when you get up. Soaking grains overnight in the pot will make cooking the next day faster.
* One way to make lunch box prep easy is to do it the night before. You may like to make extra dinner and take some for lunch the next day.
* Containers of natural yoghurt with fresh fruit alongside are good choices for work.
* Canned salmon or tuna with avocado on top of a big green salad is sustaining and won't weigh you down, plus you get those healthy brain omega oils.
* Try to keep a stash of snack food for the inevitable times when you're out and can't buy something good to eat. Nuts and seeds are one option. Boiling eggs in the morning is a good idea, plus containers of hummus with lots of dipping veggies.
* A gluten free diet for children is achievable. Let them help you in the kitchen make fruit and nut bliss balls, and bake gluten free muesli bars or cookies for school. Encourage them to help you find their special gluten free treats at the supermarket or health food store.
The most important benefits of a wheat free diet are the increase physical comfort and the growth of your creative cookery skills. Try a new recipe today!

Both teams have comparable records in recent weeks, officials tell news. Borussia Dortmund has four wins and one draw in their last five games. Real Madrid has four wins and one loss in their last five showdowns.
But Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho tell news that his team needs a win today. "At this club to finish second is not enough, nor is it to reach the semi-finals. We need to give our maximum to reach the final."
He also tells news, that in his opinion, his team deserves a win today. "I would like football to do justice to our players because with a few exceptions, none of them have won this competition so far and we've never won it as a team, and they deserve to do so. We've fallen in two semi-finals, one is best forgotten (against Barcelona) and the other on penalties (against Bayern) in a very tough manner." He added "Hopefully football will now be fair with my players." For live score updates today click HERE.

The legendary Whitney Houston, whose battles with drugs, alcohol and ex-husband Bobby Brown marred her star power, has been found dead at 48 years old.
Houston's publicist confirmed the singer's death to ABC News. The cause of death is not yet known.
Six police cars were spotted in front of the Beverly Hilton hotel today, where Houston was staying. TMZ reports that paramedics were called there this afternoon and found Houston unresponsive in her hotel room.
According to news sources, paramedics' attempts at CPR failed and Houston was pronounced dead at 3:55 p.m. PT, and report that there were no signs of foul play.
Houston was last seen publicly on Thursday, when she appeared disheveled and disoriented in front of a Hollywood nightclub. According to the Hollywood Reporter, she got into an altercation with "X Factor" finalist Stacy Francis on Thursday at an event where she was said to be acting "belligerent."
Houston returned to rehab in May of last year seeking treatment for drug and alcohol dependence. "Whitney voluntarily entered the program to support her long-standing recovery process," her publicist said at the time.
The six-time Grammy winner staged a comeback in 2009, but was dogged by rumors that she was using drugs again. That year, she told Oprah Winfrey that marijuana laced with cocaine was her substance of choice during her 1992 to 2006 marriage to R&B singer Bobby Brown. They have a daughter together, Houston's only child, Bobbi Kristina Houston Brown.
Houston's appearance on "Oprah" was her first major television interview since 2002, when she talked to ABC News' Diane Sawyer.

Join EDRM | Frequently Asked Questions
Why Join EDRM
- Understanding how to deal with electronically stored information (ESI) has become everyone's problem. Join EDRM and be a part of the solution.
- CORPORATE COUNSEL: Why join EDRM?
- CORPORATE IT MANAGERS: Why join EDRM?
- LAW FIRMS: Why join EDRM?
- CONSULTANTS and SERVICE PROVIDERS: Why join EDRM?
- SOFTWARE PROVIDERS: Why join EDRM?
Understanding how to deal with electronically stored information (ESI) has become everyone's problem. Join EDRM and be a part of the solution.
Everyone involved in e-discovery can benefit from joining EDRM. As an EDRM member, you can share best practices for managing the e-discovery processes from the initial management of electronically stored information all the way to the ultimate presentation of that information. You can offer insights to others and help improve the e-discovery processes as well as the entire industry.
CORPORATE COUNSEL: Why join EDRM?
In-house legal teams need to understand the step-by-step e-discovery process. Also, others need to understand the e-discovery needs of in-house legal teams and the clients they serve, the constraints under which they work and their goals and aspirations. EDRM provides a forum for sharing advice and best practices, a vehicle for conveying needs, desires and limitations, and an opportunity to influence the current state of e-discovery through the development of a simple and easy-to-understand framework.
CORPORATE IT MANAGERS: Why join EDRM?
IT departments carry a heavy e-discovery burden – information management, identification and collection are tasks often left to IT. Too often IT has to bear the cost and manage the process, frequently with very short turnarounds. EDRM assembles some of the leading practitioners within the industry for interactive and open discussions on best practices so IT departments can help shape better e-discovery processes. Additionally, working through EDRM, IT managers can help increase broad awareness of IT's needs and limitations, improve understanding of what IT can offer, and gain an appreciation of how legal teams, services providers and software providers approach the e-discovery process.
LAW FIRMS: Why join EDRM?
Law firms often bear the majority of legal review and production responsibilities, some of the most expensive and time-consuming processes within e-discovery. Through membership in EDRM, law firms can share the insights born of that experience, help improve and streamline those processes, and gain valuable information on best practices, processes and resources available to them to reduce the cost and complexity of e-discovery.
CONSULTANTS and SERVICE PROVIDERS: Why join EDRM?
Consultants and service providers play an important role in helping customers, whether law firms or corporations, reduce the cost and complexity of e-discovery. Through membership in EDRM, consultants can help contribute to thought leadership within the industry, assist with the development of guidelines and standards and stay on top of industry trends and best practices.
SOFTWARE PROVIDERS: Why join EDRM?
EDRM focuses on reducing the cost and complexity of e-discovery through the development of standards such as EDRM XML. As more vendors adopt the XML standard in their products and more end-users demand XML standard compliance, organizations that are not adopting and adhering to widely-accepted industry standards may be left behind. Software providers are uniquely positioned to help frame EDRM XML, EDRM Metrics and similar standards, see they are properly developed, ensure they get effectively deployed, and promote their sound usage.

We'll meet again at the "Top of the Mark"
It was World War II that gave the glass-walled Top of the Mark cocktail lounge, at the Mark Hopkins Hotel at One Nob Hill, its reputation as San Francisco's place to meet for servicemen and their loved ones.
During the war years it was a favorite spot for Pacific-bound servicemen to enjoy their last liberty before shipping out. As their ships sailed below the Golden Gate, anxious wives, sweethearts, mothers and sisters gathered in the northwest corner of the lounge to watch them go, earning that section of the lounge the nickname Weepers' Corner.
The famous Oval Bar is gone and the lines no longer stretch all the way across the lobby downstairs as they did during World War II. But now, as then, the 19th floor lounge with its panoramic views sparks romance.
"As the band played the sentimental song of 'Always,' my sailor danced me toward the huge glass windows that overlooked the harbor, lifted my face to reach up to his and said, 'I love you,' the words I longed to hear," said Terry Erickson, who lives near Modesto.
"My B-24 crew and I were awaiting orders when my wife of eight months boarded a train in Topeka, Kan., to join me for one last good-bye," said retired Air Force Col. Clifford W. Muchow. "I told her to meet me at the Top of the Mark."
Tradition has it that when things got really tough in the Pacific, servicemen would pledge to one another that "We're going to make it through this, and I'll buy you a drink at the Top of the Mark." Those who returned would ask the bartender for their unit's bottle (usually bourbon).
"Once a serviceman signed his name on the label, he could drink from the bottle for free," said Hank Cancel, a former bartender at the lounge. "There was only one catch: The man who took the last drink was required to buy a new bottle."
There was also a notebook registry for each unit's bottle. A serviceman would write his name and the date, one unofficial way of keeping track of who made it back.
"Sometimes it was sad," Cancel said. "One guy told me that when he returned, he was the only one who had signed the registry, so he assumed everyone else in his squadron had died in battle."
Although such bottles are long gone from the legendary sky bar and there are no more free drinks, plaques celebrating the military history of the bar are tucked into a side area., The walls are decorated with postcards, photos and posters of a time when the Top of the Mark was perhaps the toniest military watering hole in the country. A Life magazine cover near the elevators shows servicemen in dress uniforms, many with pretty young women on their arms, patiently waiting for a chance to ride the elevator up for a drink and a dance. While the military feel has waned over time, the thousands of service personnel who put an elbow on the bar have passed on their memories to the next generation.
Philip Mooberry of Tucson sat at the small bar overlooking the skyscrapers of San Francisco and toasted his late father, who ferried bombers from the United States to combat zones during World War II.
"He came to the Top of the Mark whenever he could, and now when I am in town, this is where I come for a drink," Mooberry said.
Today, many come from far and near to have a good time, not having to wonder if the fate of war will allow them to return.

Chris Potter: Yesterday
Chris Potter (tenor sax)
Underground (Sunnyside 3034)
Chris Potter (tenor sax),
Craig Taborn (Fender Rhodes), Wayne Krantz, Adam Rogers (guitars), Nate Smith (drums).
Composed by Lennon/McCartney.
Recorded: unknown date; released 2006
Rating: 95/100 (learn more)
Hundreds of covers have dulled the luster of Paul McCartney's "Yesterday," but like a fresh coat of wax on a vintage Rolls-Royce, Chris Potter's unique version restores the sparkle and magnificence, making an old tune sound new again. Beginning in chorale-like fashion, Potter tenderly guides the guitars and electric piano through McCartney's heartbreakingly gorgeous melody. The understated counterpoint and voice leading create some unanticipated and interesting harmonic moments, enough to catch your ear but not distract from the leader's touching rendering of the melody. The bridge is a more typical jazz ballad, with the introduction of Smith's brushes and hi-hat and Potter's improvised embellishment of the melody padded by rich, sustained chords from Krantz, Rogers and Taborn. The second verse is accentuated by more elaborate movement from one of the guitars (especially from 2:13 to 2:20). One of the best jazz Beatles covers out there, Chris Potter's interpretation of this classic is simply marvelous.

|Lovely money!
Coins are the most common form of currency in RuneScape. When the number of coins in a single stack exceeds 99,999, the examine text reads "____ x Coins", where the blank is the exact number of coins in the stack. If there is less than that, the examine text reads "Lovely money!" when examined in the inventory. When a stack of coins on the ground is examined, the examine will always show the exact amount.
In the game, coins appear as small gold coins, of varying shapes, and are stackable. In Grim Tales, it is revealed that coins have more intricate designs imprinted on their faces, although it is impossible for players to notice it.
In Dimension of Disaster, the coin can be investigated, revealing that it has a head with a profile image of King Roald and a tail that shows the coin's value - 1 gp, the same as a normal coin.
According to Gypsy Aris, in the 4th age, coins were made of silver.
According to Saradomin, coins are minted by The Fief. He doesn't give more detail as to who or what the Fief is, but judging from the meaning of "Fief", it is likely to be one of the human kingdoms (e.g. Misthalin).
Beside coins, players commonly refer to it as gold, gold pieces, gp, cash or money. Alternate terms for coins are occasionally used by NPCs in RuneScape.
One thousand coins (1,000) is usually called 1k. Similar to the metric system, the "k" stands for "kilo", which is Greek for "thousand". Likewise, one million coins is often called 1 mil or 1M, and one billion coins is referred to as 1bil or 1B. On German-language servers, the symbol for "k" is changed to "T", since "Tausend" is German for thousand. On Spanish and Portuguese language worlds, the symbol for "k" is changed to "m", since "Mil" is Spanish and Portuguese for thousand.
A stack of gold has a small coloured text on the upper-left hand corner of the stack. With larger stacks of coin - as with all stackable item - both the colour of the text and the stack's examine text change, depending on the amount of gold in the stack.
A stack of coins that uses a 'K' or 'M' identifier always rounds down to the integer multiple. For example, 15.9M is shown as 15M. This protects players receiving the coins in trade from being cheated by rounded values, e.g. A player receiving 15M can be guaranteed that the stack is not just 14.5M rounded up.
|Text Colour

Maximum limitsEdit
The maximum number of coins that players may hold in a single stack is 2,147,483,647 due to the usage of the signed 32 bit integer data type (231- 1). In terms of actual coins, it is possible to store money in the bank, inventory, money pouch, GE, Mahogany prize chest, Treasure chest (Carnillean Rising) and kingdom of Miscellania (7.5M max), giving an absolute total of 32,219,754,705 stored - thirteen max-stacks plus 7.5 million.
Players with wealth exceeding this amount usually choose to either invest their money in discontinued items or spirit shards, or another item of high market liquidity. Shards are worth a static amount of 25 coins and can be sold to the pet store in Yanille for such amount, and therefore are the typically chosen currency when coins are no longer an option. A maximum stack in this common alternative format can hold for the player an additional 53,687,091,175 (almost 53.7b) coins.
Coins in DaemonheimEdit
Coins in Daemonheim used to be similar to regular coins, but with the money pouch update on 6 December 2011 they were renamed to rusty coins and were recoloured to grey. They were later recoloured to orange to prevent them being missed on the floor. They have a different examine and are destroyed upon leaving. Coins have a few uses such as buying items from the Smuggler or marking traps. The examine, which is "They make the world go round", is a reference to the common idiom used in the real world, "Money makes the world go round". You can ask about them for the Smuggler, that will reply: "Oh, they're nothing. You can give them all to me, if you want."
Money pouchEdit
The Money pouch was added on 6 December 2011. You can store up to 2,147,483,647 coins inside it. If you die anywhere, even in the Wilderness, the money will not be dropped. You can withdraw your coins at any time, and add money anywhere outside of the Wilderness. It is protected by the bank PIN, if it has been set. It cannot be accessed while Dungeoneering or while playing some minigames, such as Stealing Creation and Soul Wars, however.
Making money through skillsEdit
As money in RuneScape plays a necessity for all players, certain skills in the RuneScape community have gained popularity because of their potential to create profit for the player with a vast number of ways to do so. However, as with the introduction to the Grand Exchange, many of these skills became impossible to solely generate great amounts of money, but this also allowed other lesser used skills to be in demand, though requiring very high levels.
Dropping monstersEdit
- This list was created dynamically. For help, see the FAQ.
- To force an update of this list, click here.
- For an exhaustive list of all known sources for this item, see here.
- In RuneScape Classic, the same image is used for coins, regardless of the number of coins dropped. Often, the only way to know how many coins are on the ground is to pick them up.
- The maximum price one can put up on the Grand Exchange is 2,147,483,647 coins. Any offer greater than this will simply read "Too high!", where the total price would normally be shown. Since you cannot raise the price beyond 2,147,483,647 coins, you can only get "Too high!" when you offer multiple items.
- Alchemy spells cannot be cast on coins. If a player attempts it, a message will inform the player that "Coins are already made of gold...". You can, however, turn other gold items (such as gold ore and gold bars) into coins using alchemy spells. Although, you cannot convert gold bars or other gold items into coins besides using alchemy.
- When you kill two NPCs and both drop coins in the same spot, the coins will stack.
- With a Squeal of Fortune update, it was once possible to win 600 million coins, the largest single source of spontaneous coins in the game excluding coinshare (coins received through trade find their source from another player, and are thus not considered spontaneously created).
- Even if there is only 1 coin on the ground, it will still say coins.
- When you deposit 1,000,000,000 coins or more into your money pouch, it has a different sound effect than any amount withdrawn below 1 billion.

A Fond Farewell (Australian CoD:BO)
Well lads I finally hit 25 in a week but im headdin over to the states and canada for 16 months. If any of you guys happen to stumble across this can you pass it onto the rest of the TOG lads from Black Ops that it was a pleasure playing alongside and against you.
I know there were sometimes where we didn't always get along, but when i bust back into the gaming community with modern warfare 3 and battlefield 3 i promise to start off a little rusty :D hell by then i'll hopefully be with ya's and not against you :p
I just thought i'd add a pic of the guy who's been schooling you a little (except for monsta, he hax for sure haha). Take it easy everyone and i look forward to gaming with you all upon my return in 2013.... better start practicing :twisted:
Thaks battle I will let the guys in Bloack Ops know about your post. See you when you get back.
Hey BattleBorn, have an awesome time overseas! Lay off the ganja and maybe you might improve :P
Yo BB....
Been some epic battles on our servers with you mate, and yes while things have been a little terse at times, I suspect that is because you put everything into your games.
By the time you get back we will probably be on the next COD after MW3 the way they pump them out, but it would be nice to have you in TS rather than just some random pub player. While I don't play competitively, I am sure the guys would love to have your skills available.
See ya when you get back.
Thanks for playing BB. Look forward to seeing you IG when you get back and probably joining us in TS.

Shailene Woodley stirred up a lot of interest when she showed up on "The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon" with some interesting stuff. Woodley brought Fallon phallic horseradish roots, along with some other herbs, on "The Tonight Show", reported US Weekly on March 13, 2014. Woodley, who is known for some of her alternative, new age approaches to health and well being, came up with a sack of roots at the request of a clearly amused Fallon.
Fallon commented, "Every time you come on I always ask you what new things are you doing? Are you drinking a new tea? What herbs do you have? And you went and got me some herbs." Looking very enthusiastic, Woodley opened up her bag, pulling out raw ginger and garlic, with a bright smile on her face. She shared that these herbs are good during the cold and flu season because they keep your immune system strong.
Than came the horseradish root as Woodley pulled out a giant, phallic-shaped root. With Fallon apparently a little red in the face at first, Woodley said, "Have you ever seen the actual root before? This is what horseradish looks like in its root form!" Fallon commented he'd never seen one that size before.
Woodley is also into survivalist lessons which have primed her for disaster, reported Celebrity Buzz. She's absolutely convinced she could survive out in the wild and in an urban setting longer than most people. Woodley says she first became interested in wilderness skills when she started studying indigenous cultures a few years ago. She was intrigued by how indigenous people know how to survive in the wild and how to heal themselves with the plants that grow around them. Clearly, at 22 years old, Woodley, who is the star of "Divergent", is a really cute and very interesting young entertainer whose enthusiastic interest in natural health care is very refreshing.
