Bruce: Male, born August 11, 2006 at Buffalo Zoological Gardens. Arrived at the Zoo on June 19, 2008.

The addax is a stocky, predominately white, medium-sized antelope in which both sexes sport long spiral horns. Its face is light gray or beige with white patches around the eyes and a wig-like dark brown tuft of hair on the crown of the head. Its hooves are broad and splayed which allow it to walk effortlessly over loose desert sand, but its stocky build and wide hooves make it a slow runner. The remoteness of its habitat has protected it from most predators, so speed wasn't necessary, but the arrival of humans with long-range vehicles has opened it up to increased hunting pressure.
A typical lifespan for an addax in a zoo is about 11 or 12 years. A very few individuals may live as long as 24 years, but most individuals don't reach these oldest ages. Lifespan in the wild is not well known.
A true desert species, the addax is able to utilize some of the most arid and desolate habitats on earth. They survive in places where it seems impossible that life can exist. They have several physical adaptations for life in such a demanding climate – for example, their pale coloration reflects radiant heat, varying hair length helps with thermoregulation, the barrel shaped body reduces surface area and their large splayed hooves help them move efficiently on loose sand. Along with these physical changes, the addax has also developed behaviors that help it survive. They are active mainly during the night when it's cooler and they can avoid the scorching sun. They rest during the heat of the day in whatever shade they can find. They often scrape areas of sand with their hooves and horns in order to move aside the hottest layer and reveal the cooler sand below before they lie down. Addax are almost continually in motion as they move throughout the desert in a search for food. They respond to the growing season of specific plants that provide them with needed moisture. They also migrate in response to weather changes such as summer rains, waves of humid air, and nighttime dew which all affect plant growth. Addax generally live in small herds of up to 15 animals of mixed ages and sexes. These small groups may come together temporarily in areas of exceptional grazing, which may have given the appearance of much larger herds. Because of recent periods of severe drought, herd size is seldom more than a half-dozen individuals. Dominance hierarchies are mainly established based on age, with older animals ranking highest.
Addax calves are born mainly in the winter and spring. They are born after a gestation period of 257 to 264 days. The calves are pale cream in color without the striking facial markings that they will develop as they mature. They weigh about 13 lbs at birth and are able to walk and follow their mother shortly afterwards. They are weaned at 7.5 months and reach sexual maturity at around 2 years for males and 2 – 3 years for females. A healthy female addax can produce a calf each year during her prime.
Height at the shoulder is 40-43 inches.
Weight ranges from 130 – 300 lbs with 200 lbs being average.
Addax are herbivores, meaning they only eat plant material. The addax is a grazer; in the wild they mainly eat Aristida grasses and the inner shoots and seeds of Parnicum grass. At the Zoo, the addax eats a blend of timothy and alfalfa hay and an herbivore pellet that contains a balance of nutrients to complement the hay.
A true desert species, the addax is found among the sand dunes and formations of the Sahara. It is critically endangered, but small populations exist mainly in Niger with some remnant or reintroduced populations in Tunisia and Chad.

A Bath For Your Business Brain
I have found that podcasts that I listen to while running or exercising tend to affect and stick with me much more effectively than those that I listen to while working at a computer.
By Courtney Powell (Founder & CEO, PublikDemand)
A good friend once told me that running is like a "bath for your business brain". It's absolutely true.
My co-founders and I took up running as a team about four months ago as a way to relieve stress, keep focused and counterbalance our startup diet.

It's not like I was super excited about the crazy piles of it all but the mountain just didn't seem so big. Or rather... climbing that mountain didn't seem so impossible.
It's felt pretty impossible lately. I can't stand the 'tude I've had.
But today four doesn't feel like so many.
And all that goes with it.
This is just life. The lampshade hasn't fallen in several days. Mainly because the door is just left wide open.
But I am even finding joy in that.

The Incline Village boys travel basketball team posted its first championship last weekend in a tournament held at the Hardwood Palace in Sacramento, beating the heavily favored Rockton ballers 38-26.
Coached by Jonathon Smith, Incline won two games on Saturday to reach the Sunday championship game against the local power team from nearby Rockton.
Incline set the tempo with a solid defensive effort that forced the home team into perimeter shooting while allowing nothing inside. The combination of tenacious defense by Incline and cold shooting from Rockton kept the game close until Incline pulled away in the third quarter.
Led by the all-around play of William Stranzel, who led Incline in scoring, and solid efforts from Eli Snyder and Ian Smith set the tone for the surprising upset.
The team has competed together for the past two years and is just now coming together. The team consists of seven sixth-graders ages 11 and 12 - Johnny Redfern, Ian Smith, Zack White, Liam Nolan-Bowers, Matthew Cornell, Paul Larson and Eli Snyder - one seventh-grader - William Stranzel - and one fifth-grader - 10-year-old Tyler Knight.
The team will continue to compete in tournament play through the spring and early summer traveling to Sacramento and Reno.

Black Friday has come and gone. It is becoming more celebrated than Thanksgiving itself.
Many people are thankful for Thanksgiving because Thanksgiving has given them Black Friday. It is amazing how we start out celebrating one thing and after a while the secondary event takes over and up stages the primary event.
I think that there is some value to Black Friday apart from the bargain prices that consumers enjoy, and the enormous sales generated by major retailers. These are some of the benefits as I see them.
You get a lot of exercise. Trying to navigate through the crowds is not an easy task. You are pushed and pulled and bounced, and it becomes an athletic feat to negotiate your way through the crowds.
I saw some people who after a few minutes looked as tired as if they had been working all day. But exercise is good for the body.
Closely aligned to the above is that this activity helps you to sweat. And as you know sweat is good for the body. It was amazing that with the temperature what it was so many people were sweating as if they had been in the sun. My guess is that this might be the only time of the year that some people actually do something to make them sweat. Thanks to Black Friday.
Closely aligned to the last two is the fact that you learn self defense. With items being thrown everywhere, with shopping carts in abundance and people using them not just to carry things but as a means of protection and a deadly weapon, there are bound to be accidents, especially with people not paying attention or trying to look everywhere at the same time. It was treacherous. I saw someone use their buggy to knock over another person.
I saw people fall trying to get out of other peoples way.
You get to laugh and laughter is the best medicine. It cost nothing. There is no hangover you experience and it is very healthy.
I saw a video of shoppers in a certain store when it was time for them to grab items that were on sale. It was amazing. There was one old lady in the crowd who made me redefine what old is and what the old can do.
The shouts and screams, the things people said and did. Things flying all over the place, and of course the back and forth conversations taking place. There was the ecstasy of victory and the agony of defeat as some people found what they wanted and some didnt. The look of disappointment on some faces and the thrill of victory as some people actually raised their hands in triumph when they got what they wanted as if they had won an Olympic gold medal.
You also learn to plan. In order to get all the things you want you have to have a system. I found out that you cannot go to the store alone. You have to have people strategically placed at different points, plus you have to have some spares in case anyone gets into trouble they can act as backups.
Finally you can learn lessons in marketing. If the item or activity is priced right and in demand people will do almost anything and endure almost any inconvenience to get whatever you are selling.
It left me wondering where people got all this money from, why one person needs five crock pots, and how is it that some people cant make it to church on Sunday but they can endure the cold, miss their sleep and get to the store on time in order to get a bargain.

by Michael Snyder, The Economic Collapse Blog:
Is the U.S. economy about to experience a major downturn? Unfortunately, there are a whole bunch of signs that economic activity in the United States is really slowing down right now. Freight volumes and freight expenditures are way down, consumer confidence has declined sharply, major retail chains all over America are closing hundreds of stores, and the "sequester" threatens to give the American people their first significant opportunity to experience what "austerity" tastes like. Gas prices are going up rapidly, corporate insiders are dumping massive amounts of stock and there are high profile corporate bankruptcies in the news almost every single day now. In many ways, what we are going through right now feels very similar to 2008 before the crash happened. Back then the warning signs of economic trouble were very obvious, but our politicians and the mainstream media insisted that everything was just fine, and the stock market was very much detached from reality. When the stock market did finally catch up with reality, it happened very, very rapidly. Sadly, most people do not appear to have learned any lessons from the crisis of 2008. Americans continue to rack up staggering amounts of debt, and Wall Street is more reckless than ever. As a society, we seem to have concluded that 2008 was just a temporary malfunction rather than an indication that our entire system was fundamentally flawed.

Shot fired near SE Bend pub; suspect sought
Police release surveillance image
Bend police released a photo and turned to the public for help Friday in identifying a man who allegedly fired a gunshot near a southeast Bend pub on Tuesday during an argument with a passing motorist.
Officers were dispatched around 5:25 p.m. Tuesday to a reported weapons offense at the Third Street Pub, at 314 SE Third Street, said Sgt. Nick Parker.
The initial report said a man had fired a gun at someone in the pub's parking lot, then ran before police were called, Parker said.
Investigating officers confirmed one round had been fired on SE Woodland Boulevard, near the pub, during an altercation with people in a passing vehicle, the sergeant said, adding that no one was injured.
Investigators obtained video surveillance and released a photo of the suspect, who they said is unknown to them.
Anyone with information that could help identify the suspect is asked to contact Bend police at (541) 693-6911.
You can also call the Crime Stoppers Tip Line at 1-877-876-TIPS, or use the form on KTVZ.COM's Crime Stoppers page. You can remain anonymous, and you could be eligible for a cash reward.

On October 6th, Ph.D. candidate Siva Nalabotu was the guest lecturer at the Research Brown Bag Lecture at the University of Charleston School of Pharmacy (UC SOP). The Research Brown Bag Lecture Series at UC SOP helps pharmacy students to stay abreast of the latest developments in diverse fields of research. Siva learned of the opportunity to speak at the lunch lecture series through Dr. Michelle Herdman, an assistant professor at UC SOP who is an alumnus of the Marshall University Biomedical Sciences Graduate Program.
Before this invitation, Siva had only spoken outside of Marshall once, giving a poster presentation at the Society of Toxicology Annual Meeting last March. He says that Dr. Herdman and Dr. Gagan Khuashal were very helpful throughout the experience, and that the faculty and students were very welcoming. Siva highly recommends this speaking opportunity to others. He says the experience encouraged him to give further presentations outside Marshall when given the chance. He would like to express his thanks to Dr. Herdman for arranging this experience and to his audience for being so accommodating. Everyone seemed to appreciate the opportunity to learn about the potential problems of the application of nanotechnology within organisms.
Siva's presentation, "Nanomaterials and Nanotoxicity: Should we be scared?" discusses both the beneficial and potentially dangerous qualities of nanomaterials. According to Siva, his topic seemed to be of special interest to the pharmacy students, as nanotechonology has tremendous potential to treat various medical conditions. Although pharmacy students may be aware of the applications of nanotechnology, they may not often come across information on toxicity of nanomaterials and the reasons for these toxicities. His presentation draws a clear connection between the good and bad effects of nanomaterials.
Specifically, Siva's research targets the toxicological effects of cerium oxide nanoparticles. These nanoparticles have been shown to be excellent antioxidants that show promise in treating a variety of medical conditions. In addition, they have industrial applications as an additive in polishes, abrasives, and fuels. Siva's research evaluates the fates of cerium oxide nanoparticles in rats and the ways in which they interact with various organ systems. Nanomaterials are being used ever more progressively, making it crucial to understand their potential effects on living organisms.
Siva says that he has seen a "tremendous change" in his oral presentation skills since joining the BMS Ph.D. program. He now feels confident when speaking in front of an audience. He also credits the program with preparing him to give effective presentations for both lay and scientific audiences. According to Siva, Dr. Delidow's Communication Skills class and her interest in teaching effective presentation skills were especially helpful in allowing him to become comfortable speaking in front of an audience. He also singles out his advisor, Dr. Eric Blough, for teaching him how to prepare effective presentation slides and to keep the audience engaged in a presentation. He says that Dr. Blough has been a tremendous help every step of the way in his professional career at Marshall, including being his advisor for his Master's in Biology before he began pursuing a Ph.D.
Great job representing the Marshall BMS Program, Siva!

NIAGARA FALLS – A woman was taken to Erie County Medical Center after she was injured this morning when her disabled car was struck from behind on the northbound 190 near the Niagara Falls Boulevard exit .
State police said a 2003 Saturn driven by an unidentified female became disabled and was stuck in the roadway at about 6 a.m. An unidentified male, driving a 2005 Ford pickup, struck the woman's car from behind. The man was taken to Niagara Fall Memorial Medical Center with injuries.
The extent of the injuries was not immediately known.
No charges have been filed and the accident remains under investigation.
State Police Public Information Officer Jeffrey Bebak said it was dark at the time of the crash and investigators are looking into the possibility that the pickup driver may have been unable to see the disabled car prior to the crash.

Last week, I took my time and made up goodie bags. Because I wanted to give our little birthday party guests something useful and worth keeping (hopefully!), I looked around at a couple of shops such as Daiso to find some sort of little bags to use. But I also didn't want to spend a lot of money... $2 seems pretty inexpensive, until you start multiplying it by a dozen or more kids! I then realised that I could make up some simple little bags myself using supplies that I already had, and not have to spend a lot of money doing so.
After I decided to try and make my own drawstring gift bags, I wanted to find a nice way to personalise them. I have found that little ones (and anyone, really) really appreciate having things created especially just for them. And so I came up with the idea to make each child a bag with the first letter of their name on it.
I made the bags out of cotton muslin as it is inexpensive, simple, I already had a lot of it, and I just like it! The only supplies I had to purchase was some 3/16" cotton cording at .17 cents a metre, and a bit of Steam-A-Seam 2 double stick fusible web for the letter appliques.
It took me a few tries to make a sample that I was happy with, but once it was settled I was quite surprised on how quick and easy these little bags were to make. I began on Monday evening, and without any stress at all made a few bags here or there throughout the week, finishing up 13 bags up by Saturday morning.
I have made up a pattern and instructions if you'd like to make some of these gift bags, too! This is the first pattern that I have ever made, so please let me know how it goes and if you have any thoughts on how I could make it better:
When I had them all made, it was time to fill them up! I added two of the little note-books that I had made previously, a small pack of special japanese crayons, and a small treat: two individualized glassine pockets, one filled with organic cheese puffs, and the other with organic chocolate chip cookies. Perfect to munch on while making some drawings. Yum!
By time her party came yesterday, Adelaide was so excited with anticipation that I had to hide all the goodie bags from her - otherwise she would have simply handed them to anyone as they walked in the door!
I think it is so important to encourage and show little children the joy to be found in sharing and giving. So when the time came I gave Addie the bags, one at a time, so she could find her friend and give them their gift herself. She loved doing this so very much - I could just tell how incredibly happy and proud she was to be able to personally give her friends a birthday treat, too!
ps. Thank-you all so much for your many comments and sweet words. I have now gone through all the comments for my children's book giveaway, and I have tried my best to pick winners by matching their animal preferences with what books I had left. And the winners are:
Julie E
If you are a winner and you haven't heard from me yet, please send me your mailing information and I will mail out your prize!

"I hope … you don't cast your vote based on that you got your feelings hurt. I think it's poor sportsmanship, and I don't think that it relays who the true Survivor is. It just shows that you got your feelings hurt."
– Tina Wesson, winner, Survivor: The Australian Outback
How epic is the Survivor gross-food challenge?
First, it's fun to see people's blech-faces as they try to shove wriggly worms down their gullets.
Second, the challenge is a metaphor for the game of Survivor itself. Can your mind overpower your body's natural reflexes as you strive for a million bucks?
Survivor is all about control. You have to be able to control your tribe mates. But just as important, you have to be able to control yourself. Can you say just the right things and act in just the right way – even as you're starving, exhausted and slowly losing your mind from the game's constant pressure?
That's why it's surprising that Monica won immunity. She aced a competition for mental toughness, even as she unraveled.
Erik Reichenbach
The remnants of Aras's alliance – Vytas, Tina and Katie – weren't sure how to react. They wanted to point out Monica's low position in the tribe so she'd flip. But they also were simply irritated, and had nothing to lose by telling her off.
Even Monica's alliance started to question her value when, provoked by Vytas, she changed her vote at Tribal Council. Monica wins a special anti-Fishy for a move that had no effect except to freak out her allies.
Pro tip for future Survivor players: Unless there are extraordinary circumstances, never, ever change your vote at Tribal Council.
Survivor is a game based on trust, but you have only one moment to prove yourself trustworthy: when you use your oversize Sharpie to scrawl a name on parchment. Players spend tons of time firming up the voting order. If you switch, especially in a delicate split vote, you could find your own torch snuffed.
"It's simple. Don't rock the vote," said Gervase. That's great advice, even if it does contradict two decades of MTV's admonishments.
Island ExhaustionMonica wasn't the only one feeling the fatigue. Everybody looked a little exhausted after three weeks of Survivor.
Even Tyson was feeling it. He struggled all episode with whether to reveal his idol. If he did, he could stop the ridiculous facade of splitting votes and nannying Tina.
Tyson wins his second Fishy for keeping the idol information quiet – even if the secret interfered with his nap.
Tina was worn out, too. She had a mini blow-up after Tribal Council, yelling at Tyson that he just lost five jury votes. That outburst could be ideal for Tyson, who now might be perceived as less of a threat.
Tina was feeling guilty that her mistakes might hurt Katie. In a touching scene, she told Katie to make her own moves, although Katie-Bot had trouble processing the concept. "My mom mentioned that I need to have a game plan," Katie said, as though this was news.
Meanwhile, Vytas scrambled. He pleaded with Hayden and Tyson for a reprieve. "Two days … could lead to 12 days … could lead to a million dollars," he said.
What makes Vytas so great is that he'll say anything or backstab anyone. Even as he told Katie they had to stay together, he plotted to vote her out.
How hilarious were Vytas and Aras at Redemption Island? They bickered like Pinky and the Brain after their plot to take over the world had failed. I hope Tina brought some harmony to the brothers.
If Tina loses the Duel, as seems likely, will it give Katie a chance to make a move?

Megan Burns' medical equipment, medicine and hospital bed fill the small sunroom of the apartment that's become her temporary home.
The 10-year-old had been hospitalized and battling brain cancer since October, and she was released from MUSC Children's Hospital over the weekend.
She couldn't return to her family's trailer because it wasn't big or safe enough, and generous donors furnished and paid for the interim arrangement.
A "Mission for Megan" fund was set up, and it totaled about $1,900 last week.
The Post and Courier featured an article about Megan in Friday's edition, and other media picked up the story. The fund had grown to more than $11,100 by late Tuesday afternoon.
"I just about fell down, I was so excited," Christy Crawford, a close family friend and teacher at Megan's school, said shortly after checking the account. "It's a testament to the type of community we live in."
Megan's family doesn't have a place to go after May, and their supporters hope to raise the estimated $30,000 needed for a new trailer. Most of Megan's hospital bills are being covered by Medicaid.
Crawford said the school's phone rang constantly last week with readers wanting to know how they could help. One man volunteered to install the power lines and meter box the new trailer would need. Others volunteered to host fundraisers.
Those efforts continued through the weekend. One church took up a collection for Megan. Children held a bake sale benefitting the Mission for Megan fund that raised $470. Other kids made and sold bracelets to collect $530.
And a group of middle school girls who are having a joint birthday party asked that any money for gifts instead be donated to Megan.
"Everyone is scrambling so we can get this money and buy a trailer," Crawford said.
Megan's mother, Irene, is grateful for the support, but she's had few free moments to reflect on anything since Megan's hospital release.
Megan needs a feeding tube and constant monitoring, and it's up to Irene to remember her medications and schedules.
That's on top of trying to organize their temporary home and welcome well-wishers.
"Oh my goodness, it's been nonstop," Irene said.
Just as noticeable as the medical supplies surrounding Megan is the SpongeBob paraphernalia, Megan's favorite cartoon character. She turned 10 on Sunday, the day after her hospital release, and many brought SpongeBob-themed gifts.
A standing-room-only crowd showed up for her birthday party, and helium balloons, streamers, cake and a school-made "Happy Birthday" banner still were on display Monday.
Megan emphatically nodded her head when asked whether she had a good birthday, and she smiled when the conversation turned to the footrace with her aunt she plans to win when she can walk again.
Megan has made many attempts to leave her bed since she's been out of the hospital, but she's not physically able to do what her mind wants.
Her eyes and cheeks squinched into a painful expression of frustration as she cried because she still can't swallow.
Irene stood up, put her face near her daughter's and asked her to open her eyes.
"You've made great progress, baby," she said. "We're going to get through this together."
Megan and her family need a new home. The Belle Hall Elementary community set up an account to collect money for the estimated $30,000 needed. Donations can be made at any First Federal branch in the name of "Mission for Megan."
Belle Hall Elementary will host a yard sale at 8 a.m. March 24 in its parking lot. The school's families will donate the items, and all proceeds will benefit the Mission for Megan fund.
A fundraiser for Megan is planned for March 17 at Planter's Pointe Clubhouse, 2801 Planters Pointe Blvd. in Mount Pleasant from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The event will include jump castles, pony rides and a dunking booth.
Hamlin Helping Hands will host April 15 a Taste of Hamlin to benefit Megan. The event will have live music and cuisine from local chefs.
Anyone with questions can call Belle Hall's office, 849-2841.
Signs made by teachers and students at Belle Hall Elementary School hang overhead as Irene Burns sits at the bedside of her 10-year-old daughter, Megan Burns, in a Mount Pleasant apartment they are living in as Megan recovers from brain surgery.×

Same cast for all these shows.
There are a few same skaters, so what? Only the NJ (Trenton) and CT (Danbury charity gala) events are in same part of USA, and the cast is not the same in them (only a couple exceptions).Originally posted by Joesitz

Any reports on this show yet, or is it still too early tonight?! Darn this East Coast thing......LOL
There's an interesting subject for a thread...What Burt Bacharach songs would you like to see these performers skate to? I'd like to see Bobek in a catsuit shimmying to "What's New Pussycat?" Perhaps Orser can put on a cowboy hat and try "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance." Meno & Sand could put on some mod psychedelic duds and do a routine to "Casino Royale," while Kadavy could do one of her slow sensuous routines to "Anyone Who Had A Heart." Yuka Sato and "Make It Easy On Yourself" would also be a good pairing...When she performs with her husband, perhaps "One Less Bell To Answer." Any ideas?
The show is over and I expect some reviews to come soon....
It was posted earlier here
that Ilia Kulik will be skating to "A House Is Not A Home" (Ingram will be singing) and he is also doing the opening group number, the closing group number and a medley number with Caryn Kadavy and Yuka &Jason.
Boitano will skate to "Alfie" (I don´t remember whether his other programme has been mentioned).

Thanks for the alert, Jaana, and for the list, Paula. I love most of these skaters and am especially glad they will be aired on TV--barring golf, of course
But bummer that the one closest to me, the Kristi show in Philly, doesn't feature Ilia Kulik. Guess my Ilia fix this year will have to be limited to TV. Sigh.
Love your ideas for song/skater pairings, Idle. I think Nicole Bobek should skate to "Do You Know the Way to San Jose?" except they should change the lyrics to the following:
"Do you know what coach I should stay with?/ I've never stayed with one for very long/
The one I loved dropped dead on me at Worlds/
My skating was going great, then he was gone/
Skating is a great big slick rink/
Place at Worlds and you can buy boutiques/
For a week maybe two they'll think you're a star/
Weeks turn into years, your skating blows/
And all the champs who never were are skating in a Disney show/
Boom Boom Boom
Do you know what coach I should stay with?/
I change mine faster than my underwear/
Things go well with each for just a while/
Then I just get the itch to get the hell out of there/
People like to say I'm flaky/
Maybe so but I've been having fun/
For a week maybe two I'll think I'm in love/
Weeks turn into years, now I'm engaged/
And champ or not I love the ice and they still pay to watch me skate/
Boom Boom Boom
I don't care what coach I might stay with/
I'm just the kind of girl who can't decide/
My life is good and I know when I skate/
It's still a great and super wonder ride!/
Skating for me is still a great and super slippery wonder ride!"

Rgirl, I can't let that go by without giving you your propers. I sang along with the whole thing. *applause, applause*
I just checked Heather's TV schedule. This show will air on December 20th. Something to look forward to this Christmas.
Here are lots of info about the show and off-ice as well:
And here the link to Tina´s excellent and detailed review at:
Tina's review has a few flaws...Among them, the fact that she identified the name of one song as "Breaking Up Is Hard To Do." I assume she means "Make It Easy On Yourself" which has those lyrics in the refrain. (There's no reason for doing a Neil Sedaka song at a Burt Bacharach show).
Great photos by Tina http://www.kurtfiles.com/pics/tyan/bacharach03.php
Enjoyed them all very much, but of course these from Ilia´s new programme "A House Is Not A Home" especially, LOL: http://www.kurtfiles.com/pics/tyan/b...03_4.php#house
Tina also has revised her review
about the skating and added links to many lyrics.

Type 2 Diabetes: Screening for AdultsSkip to the navigation
Topic Overview
If you are age 45 or older, the American Diabetes Association recommends that you get tested for diabetes every 3 years.footnote 1 The United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends diabetes testing for people who have blood pressure higher than 135/80.footnote 2 Talk with your doctor about what is putting you at risk and how often you need to be tested.
The American Diabetes Association recommends screening for prediabetes—which may lead to type 2 diabetes—if you:footnote 1
- Are overweight and are age 45 or older. Get checked for prediabetes during your next routine office visit.
- Are at a healthy weight and are age 45 or older. During a routine office visit, ask your doctor if testing is appropriate.
- Are younger than 45 and
body mass index (BMI) is 25 or greater (in Asian Americans, a BMI 23 or greater)—and you have
one or more other things that put you at risk for type 2 diabetes. These
- High blood pressure, over 140/90 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), or you take medicine to control high blood pressure.
- Low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol or high triglyceride or both.
- A family history of type 2 diabetes. People who have a parent, brother, or sister with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes have a greater risk of getting the disease than adults who do not have a family history of the disease.
- A history of gestational diabetes or having a baby weighing more than 9 lb (4 kg). Women who have had gestational diabetes or who have had a large baby are at greater-than-average risk for getting type 2 diabetes later in life.
- Risk due to race or ethnicity. African Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans, Asian Americans, and Pacific Islanders are at greater risk than whites for getting type 2 diabetes.
- A history of heart disease.
- A history of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
- A history of higher-than-normal blood sugar.
- Are overweight and get little or no exercise and want to help reduce your risk for getting type 2 diabetes.

I've got an M13, but haven't done the firmware updates yet. I've got my hands on an HD500 at the moment: Is it possible to do a computer>HD500 MIDI interface>M13 connection to get the job done? If so, are there any special settings required?
by Nick_Mattocks on 2011-05-15 02:53:27
No. Unfortunately the HD500 cannot act as a MIDI interface. Sorry. You need something like an M-Audio MidiSport UNO for this task or perhaps the MIDI i/o ports on another audio interface.
The information above may not be current, and you should direct questions to the current forum or review the manual.

HTC One (M8) vs Apple iPhone 5s
This one is no-brainer taking into account the strong loudness output of the HTC One M8's set of speakers. With both its earpiece and speakerphone, voices are recognizably more audible in noisy environments thanks to the potent and robust nature of the M8 – while also minimizing distractions like noise in the background. Conversely, we agree that the iPhone 5s' call quality amounts to nothing more than average.
Reaching new heights we didn't see previously, the HTC One M8 climbs to the top of battery life benchmark chart with its impressive, long-lasting tally of 7 hours, 12 minutes – easily besting its rival, which chimes in at 5 hours, 2 minutes. As for our real world usage, their batteries achieve that expected one-day of normal usage, but the HTC One M8 goes further by getting us over the 1.5 day mark.
Battery life
We measure battery life by running a custom web-script, designed to replicate the power consumption of typical real-life usage. All devices that go through the test have their displays set at 200-nit brightness.
A breath of fresh air for HTC, their newest star is able to give Apple's darling a good run for its money. As we all know by now, the two handsets sport very similar prices – $200 for most carriers selling it with a 2-year contract, or $650 for unlocked models.
Pricing and specs can dictate a phone's overall value, but the true telling is really found in their performances. All the money in the world can get anyone a beefy spec'd, good-looking smartphone, but if it fails to perform in the areas that matter most to us, it's merely an utter failure. Dissecting their performances, it's arguable to say that one can sometimes be dramatically better than the other in a specific category.
For the iPhone 5s, it shows its worth when it comes to taking photos/videos, more quality third party applications, and donning a straightforward & uncomplicated software experience. In contrast, the HTC One M8 impresses us with its stunning premium design, diversified software features, extended battery life, and superb phone call quality. Ultimately though, it's going to come down to personal preference. Size is also something to factor in, as well as how their software experiences cater to our needs.
Whatever you end up picking, you can sleep knowing that you're choosing a smartphone that's going to be relevant throughout this year – so expect them to continue vying for supremacy in the space!

H1 Hummver vs Jeep Wrangler. Both are capable, but one is obviously WAY larger than the other. Kind of a pointless comparison, IMO.
10. fireblade (Posts: 716; Member since: 27 Dec 2013)
Nah, it's comparing real smartphone with overpriced tiny toy phone with monstrous bezel. Retina display is outdated
33. LionStone (Posts: 743; Member since: 10 Dec 2010)
Superphone vs smartphone... We know which one is the Superphone.
38. Kakarotto (Posts: 253; Member since: 07 Dec 2010)
There is not such thing as "Retina". This term is a marketing bullsheet by Apple at it's finest. This is nothing more than ordinary LCD IPS panel with high pixel density. So please stop with this iCrap.
44. KingaSpades (Posts: 45; Member since: 04 Nov 2013)
You sound like an ignorant fanboy. I hope that was your plan.
12. itsdeepak4u2000 (Posts: 3718; Member since: 03 Nov 2012)
NO, there is a point.
They are fighting for bezels. Top-down-side bezels bezels bezels.... :P
2. Diezparda (Posts: 871; Member since: 23 Oct 2013)
dat aluminum body covering front speaker on m8 was lovely, if only they would trim the bezel even more and add the screen size of course. Compared to m8 iphone 5s look less luxury and so puny.
4. Dthawk (Posts: 42; Member since: 11 Feb 2014)
Battery life trumps camera.
45. KingaSpades (Posts: 45; Member since: 04 Nov 2013)
Only someone with a terrible camera would say that.
50. Dthawk (Posts: 42; Member since: 11 Feb 2014)
I'm not even gonna argue with you because you're right.
5. jeeta444 (Posts: 154; Member since: 24 Mar 2014)
bottom bezel of one m8 is too big..and the device itself is too big for a 5" screen.....and the 4mp cam is already beaten by 2013 devices...ultrapixel cam is very bad in results........and don't know they are still using 2gb ddr2 ram....1year old xperia Z have 2gb ddr2 ram....htc is using old tech while price of one m8 is very high.....
6. royalsovereign (Posts: 37; Member since: 01 Mar 2014)
They are in bad situation so they want to make a low cost phone but sell it with high price,to cover their financial troubles.
7. Martin_Cooper (Posts: 1430; Member since: 30 Jul 2013)
Sounds like you talking about Samsung besided the part thats in trouble. Cause that S5 costs definetly less than the M8. And since you are clueless let me remind you how much harder, how much effort and money it has to be spent to make a unibody aluminium phone thats 90% aluminium and still has great signal strength. I cant deniy it, S5 has better camera. Beside that, the M8 is so much better and nicer in many of other departments.
17. Taters (banned) (Posts: 6474; Member since: 28 Jan 2013)
Lol what are you basing this on? If anything the GS5 would cost way more if they didn't manufacture their own parts. The GS5 screen is more expensive, the CPU slightly more expensive, camera, ram, battery etc you name it. Heart rate monitor and fingerprint sensors can't be that cheap either.
Yes the process of machining aluminum might be more costly but you don't know that for sure.
So the facts say the GS5 is more expensive actually.
You HTC homers are hilarious.
21. papss (unregistered)
Wait.. are you not assuming on the cost of the S5 too? Taters are funny
25. Taters (banned) (Posts: 6474; Member since: 28 Jan 2013)
No not all. AMOLED are pricier to manufacture than lcds. And Qualcomm doesn't sell you higher specked CPU's at lower costs.
Those are called facts. Idiot.
Unlike you stupid HTC fans, I don't assume and make shit up to suit my biases.
And if you learn how to read and comprehend sentences you would see that I said i"if anything" which signifies speculation. While your HTC fan boy buddy said "definitely" which signifies a fact.
27. AU-1999 (Posts: 32; Member since: 01 Apr 2014)
Samsung process to make the Galaxy S5 cost less than HTC One M8's process! It's extrem hard to make the hardware into a aluminium body than click a plastic cover on some other plastic.
Else it really poor of Samsung to make a device there cost a lot to, but feels like a low device! - But you like it I see
29. papss (unregistered)
Wow dude now I'm an idiot and HTC fan? typically I'm neither but more of a wp fanboy so another inaccurate comment by the tater
54. AU-1999 (Posts: 32; Member since: 01 Apr 2014)
Did you ever think about to go to Android? :P It's like to get an amazing new life. You should test it :)
14. true1984 (Posts: 823; Member since: 23 May 2012)
the m8 has ddr3 ram not ddr2.
16. Taters (banned) (Posts: 6474; Member since: 28 Jan 2013)
It has DDR2 in at least one country. At least according to the box that was leaked earlier. Not sure who I would trust more between the box and Anandtech. Someone could have just assumed. Not sure which side though.
19. CanYouSeeTheLight (Posts: 1116; Member since: 05 Jul 2012)
No it doesn't, the box that leaked was a Verizon unit box. It has DDR3 stop spreading false information.
Skip to 1:35 with the video in HD and you should see it.
20. true1984 (Posts: 823; Member since: 23 May 2012)
mine didnt say ddr2, it just said 2gigs of ram. which box said ddr2?
22. papss (unregistered)
It's ddr3... He has his fanboy goggles on
24. Taters (banned) (Posts: 6474; Member since: 28 Jan 2013)
Nothing fanboy about it. There was a box leak that said DDR2. Like I said, it could have been a typo but HTC has been known to skimp on ran to cut costs, case in point. The M7.
All facts like I always go by unlike fan girls like you....
26. AU-1999 (Posts: 32; Member since: 01 Apr 2014)
Yeah, like Samsung your fa*get!!
30. papss (unregistered)
Again I'm no HTC fanboy.. you sure act tough behind the internet
31. janis (Posts: 324; Member since: 10 Mar 2014)
u guys still doing reviews without phone?
i am using this phone since launch day, its a mazing divece, battery is improved so much, it is going 3 days for me.
32. papss (unregistered)
If you are talking about the m8 then I agree.. it's got amazing battery life.. heavy user and I'm at around 70% life left for the day..
8. StraightEdgeNexus (Posts: 3689; Member since: 14 Feb 2014)
The funny thing is all z1 reviews back in october complained about dat bezels but same didnt apply to m8 especially surprised from gsmarena.
9. tiara6918 (Posts: 2036; Member since: 26 Apr 2012)
I'm glad to see that this is an unbiased review. Even though the iPhone will still sell much more units, the htc one(m8) beats the iPhone5s in almost every category and I hope this will give them the chance to be one of the top manufacturers once again
34. LionStone (Posts: 743; Member since: 10 Dec 2010)
Gotta admit though for a second there, after the M8 One upped the iPhone, I expected to hear every time, "but the iPhone has more quality apps", which is totally negligible.
46. KingaSpades (Posts: 45; Member since: 04 Nov 2013)
It's not hard to take a 2014 phone and beat a 2013 phone. Let's see how the iPhone 6 does against this phone. After all, the iPhone 6 is the iPhone for this year.
11. The13thKing (banned) (Posts: 849; Member since: 26 Feb 2014)
9.4 millimeters the m8? why? it should be less then 8 mm. Even the S5 with IP67 is 8.1 thick :/
13. arman9953 (Posts: 19; Member since: 22 Nov 2011)
On the Borders it is 5 mm thick so it isnt that bad
55. AU-1999 (Posts: 32; Member since: 01 Apr 2014)
It's not so much like it sounds, remember the curved, it looks like a phone at 5mm and not 9.4mm :)
15. papss (unregistered)
I'm holding the new one now and it's size is small to me.. you guys have sissy hands it seems.
Power button on this thing is flush and is my biggest complaint

It's just trolls like to troll about things they haven't seen in real life, to them, their monitor is the most accurate thing ever.

Paper specs matter to them more than real world use lol.
Not just trolls, mostly everyone on this site.

I agree with you on this papss. I just don't see how people are calling the M8 big. If it wasn't for the camera, I'd pick one of these up to play with for sure. I just take way too many pics of my little guy. My Note3 camera isn't the best but it does a pretty darn good all around job taking pics.

Can't believe after all these years tech reviewers are still calling the iPhone "easier to use" lol smh. Like u have to break out the manual for an android phone in order to know how to unlock it and call/text people smh....no it's probably because the tamagotchi sized screen still allows for great single hand usage......point being, the "easier" argument is cliche and no longer holds relevance. Android (Sense specifically) has evolved to be just as, if not more, beautiful and is just as easy to use.
35. LionStone (Posts: 743; Member since: 10 Dec 2010)
Absolutely, "easier to use" is also absolutely, negligible. It definitely is not a positive point of contention. The stripped down basic nature of its UI may be a negative point to others. I've seen people versed in apple have a hard time figuring out how to turn off Siri... How's that for ease of use?

HTC should have keep the buttons

The Apple is going down the same road as Blackberry, Palm, and Nokia. Blindly repeating what they for the better part of a decade, with no real game changer. To a lesser degree, Samsung is getting into that rut. I went from iphones to the S1, Note and currently an S4. But I'm eyeing the products coming from China lately. Oppo Find 7 and LG's G Pro 2 are solid designs, and remind me of old samsung trying rise about the competition 4 years ago.
47. KingaSpades (Posts: 45; Member since: 04 Nov 2013)
That's funny. You talk about Apple doing the same thing when your phone is the same as the S3 and the S5 only adds a lame heart rate monitor and of course the finger print scanner since Apple added one. But the one on the S5 makes you swipe it at the very bottom of the phone making it impossible to unlock your phone with one hand. And let's not forget that you're talking about last year's iPhone.
39. number29 (Posts: 185; Member since: 25 Jan 2013)
Wow, look at that massive toy! I've never quite understood why people think the smaller phone is the toy. Children's toys tend to be oversized. It's the HTC that's the toy.
40. Anchorman86 (Posts: 17; Member since: 08 Nov 2013)
Last time I checked, the iPhone was a glorified iPod touch with cellular connectivity....and the iPod is very much a toy, soooooooo yeah...
41. number29 (Posts: 185; Member since: 25 Jan 2013)
The iPod isn't a toy, it's an MP3 player. With all the messing around and 'customising' and flashing people do with their Android phones, I think it's clear which ones are treated like toys.
42. Anchorman86 (Posts: 17; Member since: 08 Nov 2013)
People do and can do much of the same to an iDevice via jailbreak. Your're entitled to your opinion but I'm struggling to see your point here.
48. KingaSpades (Posts: 45; Member since: 04 Nov 2013)
You actually had nothing of importance to say from the beginning. You should be struggling to see THAT.
49. Anchorman86 (Posts: 17; Member since: 08 Nov 2013)
If you want to hear something of importance, tune into the news, not a tech/phone site, where everyone's "important" opinion is welcomed no matter what people like you say. You probably typed your little sensitive fanboy comment on an iPhone LOL
43. Anchorman86 (Posts: 17; Member since: 08 Nov 2013)
So if the iPod is an MP3 player, isn't the iPhone just an MP3 player that calls/texts people?
51. Skyrim (Posts: 36; Member since: 16 Nov 2011)

I think it's not fair to compare Android with iPhone, couple of friends used to be iPhone addicts but now they are moving towards Galaxy S5 and HTC One M8. However, let's wait and see what Appple will come up with the new iPhone 6.

SALEM - Crafters, artists and bakers will pack the Memorial Building gym to sell their wares for the holiday during the 23rd Annual Holiday Arts & Crafts Bazaar this Friday and Saturday.
Doors will be open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Friday and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, with no admission cost, allowing area residents to stroll along the tables looking for gifts or special treats, take a chance on an item in the Chinese auction or purchase lunch.
"The only requirement is they have a good time," Salem Parks Director Steve Faber said.

State St. in Salem. The event will be held from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Friday and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, featuring crafts, baked goods, candles, food and a Chinese auction. Admission is free, with all proceeds benefitting activities at the Memorial Building. (Salem News photo by Mary Ann Greier)
The Salem Memorial Building Association hosts three bazaars per year to raise funds for activities, with Faber describing the Holiday bazaar as the association's biggest fundraiser. He said they've sold out the tables. Memorial Building employee Amber Goodman said they're expecting 52 vendors.
Some of the items to be featured will include scented candles, handmade jewelry, baked goods, hearing aids and devices, purses and wallets, hand-painted glass, candy, doilies and makeup and lotions."There will be a variety of arts and crafts," Faber said.
Each vendor will be asked to donate one item for the Chinese auction, with the drawing for the items to be held at 1 p.m. Saturday.
The Memorial Building will host a lunch counter from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday and 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, serving homemade soups, sandwiches and desserts, including sloppy joes, coney dogs, hot dogs, vegetable soup, pies and beverages.
Faber explained that all proceeds from the table rentals, lunch counter and auction will be used for Memorial Building activities and services for all ages year round.
Besides providing the facilities for the annual free Thanksgiving dinner, the Memorial Building serves as the site for the Banquet in Salem every Monday night and one Thursday a month, offers free classes for GED for the high school equivalency exam and ABLE for adults to brush up on their skills. Sporting opportunities are available for basketball and volleyball and the building serves as the children's venue for New Year's Eve Salem.
The Columbiana County Office on Aging has its offices at the Memorial Building and operates an adult day care program, paying for its own utilities. Salem Senior Citizens also meet at the facility and the building serves as headquarters for the Salem Parks & Recreation Department.

How 7 Iconic Movie Characters Would Fare in a Slasher Movie
Three years ago, using the finest and least employed minds Hollywood had available, we analyzed how seven iconic movie characters would do in a zombie attack. This went quite well (for us, not the iconic movie characters; most of them didn't make it), so this year we tried to do something similar. Because everyone's tired of zombies now, this time we thought we'd see how iconic movie characters would handle being suddenly trapped in a classic slasher movie.
Andy Reynolds/Photodisc/Getty Images
Making this essentially Cracked's version of slash fiction, and yes, we did get extremely aroused while writing it.
Which is how we find ourselves watching the following iconic movie characters, who, for reasons too obvious and straightforward to even mention, all ended up gathering at an abandoned summer camp one spooky weekend.
Here's what happened next.
#7. Ferris Bueller
The titular character of Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Ferris' greatest strength is the incredibly charmed life he leads. He has the hottest girlfriend. He has the raddest computer. He has the friend with the biggest mental issues. Everything breaks Ferris' way, and it would be a surprising, even shocking thing indeed if he ended up brutally murdered in the first 10 minutes of this story.
Life is about to stop moving pretty fast.
Unfortunately for Ferris, he's in that 16-to-23 demographic that fares very poorly during slasher movies. Psychopaths love murdering teenagers, giving in to the urges we all feel but rarely act on.
Jupiterimages/liquidlibrary/Getty Images
Teens are right to be mistrustful of grown-ups, detecting the faint but very real desire we all have to murder them.
Also, Ferris is kind of a smug little shit, isn't he? In some of the more postmodern slasher varieties, where the audience actually roots for people to die, the smug little shits are among the first to go.
The Outcome:
Ferris will instantly become the most popular kid at Shriekaway Camp, but in doing so will sow the seeds of his own ruin. His antics that first night (singing "Louie Louie" in a variety of places, talking directly to the camera) will grate on more than a few people, and all will be relieved when he decides to sleep in his own cabin that night.
Hemera Technologies/Photos.com/Getty Images
This should end well.
The next day Ferris will be found strangled to death on a complicated series of strings and pulleys that he'd seemingly been trying to deploy to trick anyone entering the cabin into thinking that he was still in bed, singing "Louie Louie." It's pretty grim, but as it was obviously an accident and no one else was using that cabin anyways, everyone will agree to just quietly shut the door and get on with their weekend.
#6. Willy Wonka
Taking a break from his work as a chocolatier, Willy Wonka (from Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory) isn't the strongest person at camp this weekend, but he will quite likely have a number of trick candies on his person that can produce a variety of unlikely effects as the plot necessitates. In terms of other skills, he's very capable of coming up with terrible names for candy, and he also has an extensive (some would say troubling) knowledge of slave management practices.
He's also a passably good choreographer.
Wonka's away from his home turf here and, lacking the traps and child-imperiling devices in his factory, his power is greatly diminished. Honestly, if confronted by a murderer, Wonka's options for self-defense are pretty limited, unless of course he can convince the killer to eat something he hands them.
Stockbyte/Getty Images
FDA WARNING: "Wazzo Smizzlers" contain 90 percent flunitrazepam.
The Outcome:
Wonka will take special interest in Ferris Bueller's death, and while the rest of the movie characters are playing horseshoes, he'll sneak back into the cabin and try to harvest some of Ferris' body fluids to form the basis of a new flavor delight.
Petr Adam Dohnalek via Wikimedia Commons
There's an awful lot of flavor in lymph.
Strangely, going off on his own doesn't work out too well for Wonka, as the others discover later that morning when they find his body in one of the outhouses, where he apparently ate candy until he burst. And although this does seem a bit like him, all will agree that the handcuffs and restraints probably rule out natural causes. Something is afoot.
It's death. Death's afoot.
#5. Optimus Prime
The Outcome:
Optimus Prime (of Transformers: The Movie vintage) was born(?) to be a leader, and with two murders on the books, he will immediately take charge of the situation. With the camp's bus mysteriously disabled and no escape possible for the surviving movie characters, Optimus will decide to set up a secure shelter in one of the cabins, establishing a defensive perimeter and scheduling a series of guard shifts. Then, as the only one capable of turning into a truck, he'll turn into a truck and go get help.
"Optimus! Why can't we go with you?"
"No, little one. We must respect the schedule of guard shifts at all costs!"
-he's gone-
The next morning he'll be found dead, just outside of camp, shot in the chest with an energy cannon. This will, understandably, leave the rest of the survivors shaken. If the bravest and strongest of them can fall, what hope can the rest of them have?
So begins their darkest hour.
#4. Freddy Krueger
As the Nightmare on Elm Street series has shown, Freddy Krueger is essentially unkillable in the world of dreams, with immense strength and a variety of supernatural powers. He's also got that glove with the finger blades, great for slashing and spreading soft cheeses and such.
Alan Levine via Wikimedia Commons
They'll also come in handy if they find a murderer-detector in some blister packaging.
Unfortunately, the camp isn't in the land of dreams, instead being in the plodding land of reality, which limits Krueger's strength somewhat. What he'll need to do is fall asleep somewhere where the killer can find him, he'll ... no, actually, that won't work. Hmmm.
Digital Vision/Getty Images
This is not a good martial art.
It turns out that, without the ability to enter people's dreams, Krueger is just a guy with an ugly sweater and a fedora, basically a hipster with a knife glove. And, like all hipsters, knife gloved or not, everyone around him hates him. Krueger's reputation precedes him, and when tensions rise, it's likely he'll catch a lot of the blame for these deaths.
The Outcome:
"IT'S NOT ME, GUYS. I SWEAR," Freddy will yell as the others push him into a fire. "NO, NOT THIS. I HATE BURNING MORE THAN ANYTHING."
Hemera Technologies/AbleStock.com/Getty Images
He dies.
They're finally safe.

Prisoner Transports & Fugitive Extradition
Extradition is the legal process of transferring custody of wanted persons across state lines. A person wanted in Nebraska who is located and arrested in another state may or may not waive extradition. If the person waives his/her right to an extradition hearing a deputy from this office has to travel to the holding state and take custody of the prisoner. If a person refuses to waive or "fights extradition" a lengthy procedure ensues which may take 90 days or more. Of the approximately 70-75 individuals arrested in other states annually on Lancaster County felony warrants, an average of 40-45 waive extradition and return voluntarily to Lincoln. The Special Services Division is responsible for coordinating the extradition procedure and making arrangements for the return of the prisoner. The prisoner may be returned to Lancaster County by car, commercial aircraft, or by the "Northwest Shuttle" consisting of cooperating law enforcement agencies operating nationwide.

Nosefrida nasal aspirator ... safe, natural & effective relief from congestion.
If you've got a baby with a stuffy nose, help is as only a few clicks away. Nothing will relieve a baby's uncomfortable congestion faster and more efficiently than the Nosefrida. Recommended and used by European nurses, midwives, moms and dads for years, this doctor-invented nasal aspirator is easy to use, less shocking than your traditional bulk aspirator, more sanitary, and very gentle on your little one's sensitive nose.
The NoseFrida Nasal Aspirator reduces mucus in the nose, enabling babies to breathe, sleep and feed more easily. Due to its unique, mouth-operated design, you can simply position the tube near baby's nostril, put the red mouthpiece in your mouth and apply gentle suction. The replaceable hygienic filter prevents the transfer of mucus and bacteria
Why parents love the Nosefrida Nasal Aspirator:
- Reusable nasal aspirator safely & gently removes mucus from your child's nose.
- Safe and effective for use on newborns and toddlers 3+.
- Loosens chest and sinus congestion without the use of over the counter medication.
- Clears nasal passages with gentle suction.
- Tube goes against nostril, not inside, so if baby moves the nose won't get hurt.
- Set is complete with nasal aspirator & 4 filters.
- Safe for both mom and baby - hygienic filter prevents transfer of any mucus from child to user.
Children tolerate the gentle action of Nosefrida better than other aspirators.
- BPA-free, latex-free polypropylene and contains no phthalates.
- Allergy-safe materials so the Nosefrida aspirator won't irritate baby's skin.
- Pediatrician Recommended
- Replaceable filters are easy to change when required.
- Made in Sweden
Nosefrida, the doctor-recommended, non-invasive nasal aspirator, is the new standard in keeping babies snot-free. Ingeniously simple Swedish design features a tube that is placed against the nostril (not inside). Parents use their own suction to draw mucus out of their childs nose. Disposable filters prevent any bacterial or mucus transfer. Nosefrida comes in a diaper-bag-friendly case, is easy to clean, top-rack safe, and BPA and Phthalate free. It is superior to the bulb aspirator, presents no risk or harm to internal nasal structures and is dramatically more efficacious. Dr. Joseph Edmonds, MD, FAAP, Childrens Ear, Nose & Throat of Houston.
Check out the instructional videos to see Nosefrida in action!
Includes: Nosefrida tube, 4 hygenic filters & case. Additional filters are available. Nosefrida recommends changing the filter after each use.
The Nosefrida aspirator is designed to be safe and effective for use on newborns and toddlers.

Buy it! Review by Sam
Value Quality Price
I love this product! My poor little guy has been so congested the past couple of days... I've been using the bulb syringe, but it gave him no relief. I put this snot sucker to his nose and it pulled out stuff I couldn't even see. I've got one happy camper and I'm now looking forward to a proper sleep. (Posted on 6/18/13)
It really sucks! Review by serena
Price Value Quality
Oh my gosh! I love this product! There is no worries about shoving a little tube too far up your babies nose or even pushing air into their nose instead of sucking stuff out. I feel completely confident with the Nosefrida and it works like a charm! I love that you can buy replacement filters as well. This product is one that I buy for all my friends who are expecting.

Analytical Treatment of Heat Sinks Cooled by Forced Convection
Lehtinen, Antti
Publication type: Doctoral dissertation
Issue date: 2005-12-22
Belongs to: Tampereen teknillinen yliopisto. Julkaisu - Tampere University of Technology. Publication; 579
University: Tampere University of Technology
Faculty: Department of Mechanical Engineering
Department: Institute of Energy and Process Engineering
Understanding heat transfer is vital in numerous applications in the field of power electronics. This thesis introduces some new reliable and efficient calculation methods for plate-fin heat sinks. There may be any number of electronic components attached to the base plate. The components may have arbitrary prescribed heat flux distribution. The state-of-the-art calculation methods found in the literature are based on conduction analysis, while the convective heat transfer is only treated as a boundary condition. This may lead to unphysical solutions. In this thesis, conjugated conduction and convection heat transfer problem is solved in the fins. However, the tedious solution of the Navier-Stokes equations is avoided by applying well-known analytical and experimental results for convective heat transfer. The conjugated heat transfer solution for the fins is used to determine the temperature field of the base plate. Some numerical examples are given to illustrate the fact that the present calculation methods give physically more realistic results than the methods found in the literature. The analysis in this thesis has been carried out assuming steady-state conditions. However, it is pointed out that the methods presented in the thesis can easily be generalised for the transient operation of the electronic components.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show was released in 1975. I was only two years old. I had heard about it in my teens years, but had no real desire to see it. In fact, I thought people who did go to watch it were "weird." Gotta love the way the teenage brain works. Then during the summer of 1990, I met a group of great people while away at camp. When we all returned to St. Louis later that summer, we got together to see a midnight screening of this cult classic at the Tivoli Theater.
I had no idea what to expect. If you've never seen the movie "live" I highly recommend the experience. The crowd is always enthusiastic and helps make the night even more memorable. People threw toast, toilet paper, and other items throughout the 90 minutes of the film. They sing out loud and replace lines in the movie with sometimes vulgar words. It's great! I couldn't believe what I was seeing on screen and in the audience.
Frank meets Brad & Janet
Long story short if you've never seen RHPS, a young couple named Brad and Janet get stranded at the mansion of a transvestite named Frank N. Furter, who is from the Transsexual Transylvania. He's creating the perfect man, named Rocky, only to be draw the ire of his employees (and possible lovers?) Riff Raff and Magenta. There's lots of sex and murder and general mayhem throughout. Meatloaf, Tim Curry, and a young Susan Sarandon are part of this wild cast. It's one of the most bizarre movies I've ever seen, and my Cliff's Notes version does it no justice at all.
After seeing the movie that summer before my senior year of high school, I became obsessed with it. I bought the cassette tape of the soundtrack and did the Time Warp at home every time I had the chance. I learned it well enough to do it in the green room prior to our drama club plays and not feel like a fool doing it. A year later when I finally got a CD player, one of the first CDs I got was the four piece 15th anniversary collector's edition. It included the movie soundtrack, the London theatrical soundtrack, an international soundtrack, and Songs from the Vaults. A friend of mine also made me a copy of an audience participation cassette tape, which is great. It's the entire movie with the sounds of the people watching the film at the theater.
A motley crew
I think most college campuses offer or at least offered a screening of the film around Halloween. I'd go with a group of friends each year and sing and dance and toss things at the screen, just like I did years earlier at the Tivoli. That was 20 plus years ago, but I still remember it so well. I will listen to the music on my iPod now and think back to a time when I could time warp with the best of them. I can't explain why I enjoy it so much, it's just one of those quirky things about me you can add to the list. I still want to find a copy of the sequel, Shock Treatment. That will happen one of these day.
