From the small Hungarian town of Konyár to the grand opera houses of Budapest and Paris, from the despair of Carpathian winter to an unimaginable life in labor camps, The Invisible Bridge tells the story of a family shattered and remade in history's darkest hour.

Chapter ONE
A Letter
Later he would tell her that their story began at the Royal Hungarian Opera House, the night before he left for Paris on the Western Europe Express. The year was 1937; the month was September, the evening unseasonably cold. His brother had insisted on taking him to the opera as a parting gift. The show was Tosca and their seats were at the top of the house. Not for them the three marble-arched doorways, the façade with its Corinthian columns and heroic entablature. Theirs was a humble side entrance with a red-faced ticket taker, a floor of scuffed wood, walls plastered with crumbling opera posters. Girls in knee-length dresses climbed the stairs arm in arm with young men in threadbare suits; pensioners argued with their white-haired wives as they shuffled up the five narrow flights. At the top, a joyful din: a refreshment salon lined with mirrors and wooden benches, the air hazy with cigarette smoke. A doorway at its far end opened onto the concert hall itself, the great electric-lit cavern of it, with its ceiling fresco of Greek immortals and its gold-scrolled tiers. Andras had never expected to see an opera here, nor would he have if Tibor hadn't bought the tickets. But it was Tibor's opinion that residence in Budapest must include at least one evening of Puccini at the Operaház. Now Tibor leaned over the rail to point out Admiral Horthy's box, empty that night except for an ancient general in a hussar's jacket. Far below, tuxedoed ushers led men and women to their seats, the men in evening dress, the women's hair glittering with jewels.
"If only Mátyás could see this," Andras said.
"He'll see it, Andráska. He'll come to Budapest when he's got his baccalaureate, and in a year he'll be sick to death of this place."
Andras had to smile. He and Tibor had both moved to Budapest as soon as they graduated from gimnázium in Debrecen. They had all grown up in Konyár, a tiny village in the eastern flatlands, and to them, too, the capital city had once seemed like the center of the world. Now Tibor had plans to go to medical college in Italy, and Andras, who had lived here for only a year, was leaving for school in Paris. Until the news from the École Spéciale d'Architecture, they had all thought Tibor would be the first to go. For the past three years he'd been working as a salesclerk in a shoe store on Váci utca, saving money for his tuition and poring over his medical textbooks at night as desperately as if he were trying to save his own life. When Andras had moved in with him a year earlier, Tibor's departure had seemed imminent. He had already passed his exams and submitted his application to the medical school at Modena. He thought it might take six months to get his acceptance and student visa. Instead the medical college had placed him on a waiting list for foreign students, and he'd been told it might be another year or two before he could matriculate.
Tibor hadn't said a word about his own situation since Andras had learned of his scholarship, nor had he shown a trace of envy. Instead he had bought these opera tickets and helped Andras make his plans. Now, as the lights dimmed and the orchestra began to tune, Andras was visited by a private shame: Though he knew he would have been happy for Tibor if their situations had been reversed, he suspected he would have done a poor job of hiding his jealousy.
From a door at the side of the orchestra pit, a tall spindling man with hair like white flames emerged and stepped into a spotlight. The audience shouted its approval as this man made his way to the podium. He had to take three bows and raise his...
About the Author-
Julie Orringer is the author of the award-winning short-story collection How to Breathe Underwater, which was a New York Times Notable Book. She is the winner of The Paris Review's Discovery Prize and the recipient of fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, Stanford University, and the Dorothy and Lewis B. Cullman Center for Scholars and Writers at the New York Public Library. She lives in Brooklyn, where she is researching a new novel.
- Los Angeles Times "Profound love, familial bonds and the deepest of human loyalties play out against the backdrop of unimaginable cruelty. . . . A stunning first novel."
- San Francisco Chronicle "Truly breathtaking. . . . A sensual feast."
- Chicago Tribune "The Invisible Bridge is a tale of war-torn lovers, family and survival of the luckiest rather than the fittest. . . . Wonderfully evoked."
- The Oregonian "Orringer's writing is glorious."
- The Washington Post Book World "Brilliant. . . . Remarkably accomplished."
- Michael Chabon, author of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay "To bring an entire lost world--its sights, its smells, its heartaches, raptures and terrors--to vivid life between the covers of a novel is an accomplishment; to invest that world, and everyone who inhabits it, with a soul, as Julie Orringer does in The Invisible Bridge, takes something more like genius."
- The Onion's A. V. Club "With The Invisible Bridge, Julie Orringer has built a large novel in the grand old style, and out of that rubble made something new and beautiful."
- Newsday "A Tolstoy-esque novel of the Holocaust, one that tracks the passage of quotidian life and the flutter of the human heart against the implacable roll of history. . . . The love story that unfolds in Orringer's pages is as romantic as Doctor Zhivago and the seamless, edifying integration of truckloads of historical and topical research."
- Forward magazine "In a field as crowded with artistic representations as the Holocaust, it's easy to assume that there is nothing new to say. Julie Orringer reminds us that there always is, so long as there are individual stories to tell. . . . Brilliant. . . . As in her modern stories, here Orringer covers the darkest matters with a tender authority while imbuing her characters with the subtle, endless dimensions of love and suffering.. . . Gripping, fresh, and worth remembering . . . this novel will endure."

US Military Seeks Major Increases in Aid to Yemen
According to reports from US officials, the Pentagon is proposing a dramatic increase in the amount of military aid sent to Yemen annually, with some officials pushing for as much as $250 million in the next annual appropriation.
All the US military aid in the world is not going to help unless and until the terrible living conditions with which most Yemeni citizens have to cope are ameliorated.
Unfortunately, in light of the fact that the Yemeni government is one of the most corrupt governments in the region (and that's saying something), most of this aid will most likely line the pockets of the ruling Saleh family, and do nothing to bring its people out of the grinding poverty which can sometimes make insurgency attractive.

Yes, she returns! Anyone who has talked to me about music has heard me rave about this Brazilian singer. Her first album, still gets heavy rotation in my iPod, but a new album is long overdue!
From the Regattabar Website:
Sultry, seductive and infused with that inimitable samba swing, the music of Luísa Maita embodies the modern spirit of Brazil. Inspired by the bustling urban life found in her native city of São Paulo, her first album, Lero-Lero, has a contemporary vibe with influences from alternative pop and downtempo electronic music melded with an acoustic foundation deeply rooted in samba, bossa nova and MPB. Fans of Bebel Gilberto, Céu and Seu Jorge will find much to love in Luísa Maita's tropical, forward-looking sound, and her sensual yet soulful voice begs comparisons with everyone from Billie Holiday and Sade to Feist, St. Vincent and Cat Power. Hailing from a country overflowing with musical talent, Luísa Maita rises above the fray as one of the most promising young singers of her generation.
Inspired by samba, bossa nova and other classic Brazilian styles, Luísa is also heavily influenced by the cool jazz of Billie Holiday and Chet Baker, as well as pop, funk and downtempo electronic music. Her first album as a solo artist, Lero-Lero offers songs that encourage her fellow Brazilians to recognize the beauty and deeper meaning of their lives. "Its inspiration comes from the urban life of São Paulo, its ghettos and its people," notes Luísa, "The lyrics and the aura of the album focus on the peculiarities of Brazilian daily life, culture and human condition."
In 2006, the Brazilian singer Virgínia Rosa recorded two songs by Luisa in her album "Samba a Dois". The songs stand out in the CD and encouraged Luisa to compose more. In 2009, Mariana Aydar released her second album with a composition of Luisa and Rodrigo Campos, "Beleza", one of the best songs of th year by Rolling Stone Brazil magazine. Luisa also appears in four songs of Rodrigo Campos debut album "São Materus Não É Um Lugar Assim Tão Longe" and as the singer of the promotional videos for Rio 2016 Olympic games directed by Fernando Meirelles.[6] Because of these works, Luisa had some great reviews in the Brazilian press without having yet released any solo album.
After the release in US, NPR's All Things Considered said that Luísa is "The New Voice of Brazil"[7] and "if Maita keeps making records this good, she could well be on her way to international stardom".
On November 2010, Luísa made her first North America tour, receiving great reviews from The New York Times, The Washington Post and Boston Globe. During the tour, she also appear on NPR's Tiny Desk Concert and KCWR's Morning Becomes Eclectic show.
In Brazil, the album figured in the list of best albums of 2010 – including the magazines Veja and Rolling Stone Brasil.
In July 2011, Luísa received the award for Best New Artist in the twenty-second edition of the renowned Brazilian Music Award and went to her first European tour playing in important festivals like Nuits du Sud in France and Musicas do Mundo in Portugal.
In August 2011, the singer returned to North America, performing 30 shows in 26 cities over 45 days and, once again, sell out festivals and concert halls, get enthusiastic review from LA Times. -

But the bottom line is these series makes money. Its about the money. If they can update a game and put a full price tag on it. They will.
While money is important for a bussiness , game freak is not the type to put a game out there just for the money. If they put something out its because they believe its a good fun quality game, and its because of that they make tons of money. I think it's because satoshi tajiri has a form of Autism. What I mean by that is , the world we live in is full of bad influences and mostly all the that rubs off on children who grow up to care only about money cough cough ( Mitt Romney) but I think because of his situation he focused on something that he loved and he wanted to bring that to every one.Pokémon Red and Green took six years to produce, and nearly bankrupted Game Freak in the process; often, there was barely enough money to pay the employees.Five employees quit, and Tajiri did not take a salary, instead living off of his father's income.Investment from Creatures Inc. allowed Game Freak to complete the games, and in return, Creatures received one-third of the franchise rights.
I'm telling you I have great respect for this guy and what he has created.
So if some type of remake comes out ,we can Guarantee its gonna be a Superior quality game

Ziptronix accuses Omnivision, TSMC of patent infringement
by Dr. Phil Garrou, contributing editor
January 7, 2010 - On December 6th, Ziptronix Inc. filed a complaint of patent infringement against Omnivision Technologies, TSMC Ltd and TSMC North America in US District court, alleging that the defendants "willfully and deliberately infringed" on several patents pertaining to low-temperature oxide bonding.
Omnivision acknowledged the patent infringement complaint in its recent 10Q filing with the Securities and Exchange commission, and responded that they plan to "vigorously defend ourselves" against the allegations.
When asked for comment, Ziptronix CEO Dan Donabedian referred to the company's "extensive patent portfolio" that enables manufacturing of backside illumination CMOS image sensors. "Ziptronix respects the intellectual property of others and expects others to do the same," he said, and pledged that the company "will vigorously monitor all acts of infringement and take the necessary actions to protect its intellectual property and the interests of its duly authorized licensees."
Founded in October 2000, Ziptronix was spun out from North Carolina's RTI International for the purpose of commercializing wafer and die bonding technology. In the intervening years, such technologies have found an important role in the evolving areas of chip-on-chip (CoC) bonding, 3D IC integration, and CMOS image sensing.
Ziptronix's patent portfolio is centered around its ZiBond (Ziptronix bonding) and DBI (direct bond interconnect) technologies. ZiBond is based on their discovery that one can achieve significantly higher bond energy between wafers (with thermal or other oxide) after treatment with various surface "activating and terminating" processes. The direct oxide bonding, which is initiated at low temperature, is characterized by a very high bond energy between the surfaces.
In 2008, Donabedian offered a warning that "the broad and fundamental nature of our patent portfolio leads us to believe that any use of a oxide low-temperature bonding process is highly likely to be covered by one or more of our patents."[1]. While acknowledging the availability of some commercial tools that claim to support low-temperature oxide bonding processes, the company had neither granted nor intended to grant any IP licenses to equipment manufacturers. "Anyone running a low-temperature oxide bonding process as part of their manufacturing scheme is likely to be infringing on our IP," he said.[2] In Nov. 2009 Raytheon Vision Systems reached a licensing agreement for the use of Ziptronix' DBI technology in Raytheon's imaging systems.

My family is hugely into mac and cheese, and I am always looking for new recipes so we don't have the "same old same old" over and over again. I think we have found something we will stick with for quite a while. The three cheeses combine to make a wonderful tasting dish. We don't have American cheese where I live so I substituted a regular yellow cheese. Instead of bread crumbs I used onion-flavored cracker crumbs as the topping. I upped the quantities to serve 10, although our family of 6 inhaled it all at one sitting. I see I'm going to have to up it to at least 16 next time! Thanks for posting this Kari, you may have helped me create a monster!
So delicious. I did not have the exact kind of cheeses for this recipe, so I just used what I had, which was: parmesean, cubed cheddar/monterey and shredded 4-cheese mexican style. It was really good; everyone in my family agreed.
Wow! Perfect amount of spice and oh so cheesy! I am definitely making this one again!!!!
This was by far the best mac and cheese I've ever had. I'm surprised I haven't reviewed it sooner as I have made it many many times and everytime it turns out perfect; this is my staple mac and cheese recipe. Don't be fooled by the amounts, it doesn't seem like enough macaroni at first but it does end up making four generous servings.
This was very good and easy to make. I didn't add the onion because I was lazy. My son who doesn't like mac and cheese ate two helpings and said make this again. The flavors of the three cheeses were great. Thanks Kari!
This was wonderfully cheesy!!! Followed recipe exactly, but didn't have any bread crumbs. Didn't bother me at all...lol.
My entire family loved this dish! I had wanted to make my Homestyle Mac and Cheese (posted here at Zaar) but had no cream cheese, so went looking for something else--and found this great recipe. I subbed a chunk of Velveeta for the slices of "american cheese" (shhhhh, don't tell anyone I had that in my fridge LOL), used fusilli for the "curly macaroni", and otherwise followed the recipe to a T. Well, that's a lie: I also left out the chopped onion (I subbed a sprinkle of granulated onion, though) and I did use old cheddar instead of medium; I always do. I used Italian breadcrumbs for the topping, so of course didn't add any seasonings to that, just the melted butter. The directions are very straightforward and this was quite easy to prepare. Kari, thanks for posting this; I will make it often, I know!

Apart from Your Parents, Has Anyone Ever Asked You "What Do You Know?"
If you believe something is going to happen and you work like it will, magic happens. The more you believe in magic, the more it happens.
David Wood (CEO of Empower Network) uses the word 'magic' to describe things that happen that he is not sure of why.
It doesn't matter if you call it magic, you could call it whatever you want to call it.
The more that you believe that powerful things will happen in your life, the more they tend to happen. It's unbelievable how consistent that is.

I'm pleased to announce that my dreams have come true. They actually came true three years ago, when Claudia Wu and Kerry Diamond launched Cherry Bombe, a magazine celebrating women and food.
Cherry Bombe is a biannual print-only publication with a gorgeous aesthetic that mixes white space with colorful personality. Wu and Diamond love the so-called "dead" journalism mediums; Cherry Bombe exists in print, radio, and live forms only. That includes the mag itself, Radio Cherry Bombe (a weekly conversation with Wu, Diamond and others of the coolest women ever), and Jubilee (an annual conference that brings all of these cool people together so that they can share their energy and get even cooler). I'll attend Jubilee one day, but I get to read and listen in the meantime.
So here goes the fan-girling:
Normal day in the Barnard life. Cut to me in the elevator post-orgo-lab hoping and praying my issue of Cherry Bombe has arrived. Cut to me exiting the elevator with goggle marks still fresh. Back-of-the-mailbox shot of the tears in my eyes when I see my Altschul mailbox crowded by a hefty cardboard object. Jump cut to me savagely reducing that object to its true form, Issue No6 of Cherry Bombe. I do end up nicely hanging the cardboard label with my name and address handwritten by some cool woman who works for Cherry Bombe. I know it's a small team, so it could be Wu or Diamond herself calling out to me. Are you there, Cherry Bombe goddess?
Slowly so as not to disturb the magical design-induced aura of Cherry Bombe, I curl the cover back and I embark.
To be continued . . .

Shiplake is a two-centred village and rural civil parish on the left bank of the River Thames centred 2.3 miles (3.7 km) south of Henley-on-Thames in Oxfordshire, England. Binfield Heath away from the Thames was once part of the parish.
The village has Shiplake Railway Station, the only through station on the Henley Branch Line. The railway crosses the Thames via iron-girder Shiplake Railway Bridge built in 1897. The line has train services connected to the national network requiring a change at the small town of Twyford to the south. Shiplake College is a large independent school in the village which has many buildings, some of which are conservation-listed.
The main road from Henley to Reading, Berkshire, which is 4 miles (6.4 km) south-west bisects the western edge of the village. No dual carriageways or motorways pass through or next to the village.
Parish church[edit]
The Church of St Peter and St Paul dates from at least the 13th century and is the centre of the ecclesiastical parish of Shiplake in the diocese of Oxford. In 1869 the Gothic Revival architect, G. E. Street, rebuilt the chancel, north aisle, parts of the south aisle and replaced all its windows' traceries.[2] The church has been in conservation assessed as being in the limited mid-category of listed buildings, Grade II*.
The church tower includes a ring of eight bells,[3] all recast by the Whitechapel Bell Foundry in 2009.[4] Shiplake Church also has a Sanctus bell cast by Gillett & Johnston of Croydon in 1929.[4]
The Revd Paul Bradish is the present Rector of Shiplake.
In 1773 the Thames Navigation Commission built Shiplake Lock on the River Thames about 0.5 miles (800 m) downriver from the main village. In 1857 the Great Western Railway opened a branch line between Twyford and Henley-on-Thames, crossing the Thames on Shiplake Railway Bridge, about 300 yards (270 m) downstream from Shiplake Lock. The GWR built the only through station on the branch at Lower Shiplake 1 mile (1.6 km) northwest of the historic village, Shiplake railway station. Twyford provides access to the straight east-west part-stopping (semi-fast) services between hub city stations London Paddington and Reading. Lower Shiplake has since grown into the largest settlement within the parish.
In 1889 the author Jerome K. Jerome featured the village in his novel Three Men in a Boat.[5]
Shiplake Court is former a country house rebuilt in 1894 overlooking the Thames, which in 1959 became Shiplake College, an independent boarding school.[6]
In 2003 the village of Binfield Heath and hamlet of Crowsley, separated from the (civil) parish to form the newly created civil parish of Binfield Heath.[7] In the Anglican church the ecclesiastical parish retains these areas and also Dunsden which has contributed to a more rural civil parish, Eye and Dunsden to the south.
Shiplake has a village hall,[8] Women's Institute,[9] amateur dramatic society,[10] a bowls club[11] and a lawn tennis club.[12]
Most homes post-date the railway and the village has a small minority of industrial, storage, retail, distribution and office units.[1]
Outside of the college (including its listed water tower) and the church (excepting equally a stone cross in the churchyard) the only other conservation-listed structure is Shiplake House, in the starting category (Grade II). It is regency architecture with a white stucco façade "probably covering brick", a slate roof and stuccoed end stacks. It is a rectangular three-storey building with a five-window range. It has a central double door with flanking 8-pane sash windows, 12-pane sashes to ground and 1st floor and 6-pane sashes to the floor above. A flat (projecting) band course of stone is between the first two floors. A moulded cornice band is between its first and second floors. It has elegantly bracketed eaves. Part of the rear and side has a decorative wrought iron verandah.[13]
Wargrave & Shiplake Regatta[edit]
The Wargrave & Shiplake Regatta was founded in 1867 and is held over an August weekend for non-racing shells (also known as Olympic or fine boats).[14] It receives the most entries for skiffing and dongolas racing on the Thames. The regatta attracts a comparable number of entries to the largest shell-racing regattas on the Thames such as Kingston Regatta and Molesey Regatta.

Third-party logistics providers like Expeditors International of Washington have traditionally benefitted from disruptions in direct shipper/carrier relationships, according to a recent client note from William Blair Equity Research.
Carriers may seek to "turn the table" on shippers who drove hard bargains, but an upturn in rates may be short-lived.
The world's two largest container shipping carriers, Maersk Line and MSC, are beefing up their presence on the transpacific trade in the wake of Hanjin Shipping filing for receivership in Korea last week.

The present invention pertains to hand held medical instruments and method of use thereof, which are designed to position tissue in a suturing procedure. More particularly, the invention pertains to hand held medical instruments and method of use thereof, which are designed to receive and retain the movement of the pointed end portion of a surgical needle, as the surgical needle passes through a patient's tissue, and is herein described in that context. It is to be appreciated however, that the invention is not limited thereto.
The sewing of tissue is an important aspects of surgery.
There are basic stitch movements involved in most surgical sewing procedures. These basic stitch movements are as follows: gripping the shank portion of a needle with a needle holder, manipulating the needle holder to push the pointed end portion of the needle at least partly through the tissue, gripping the pointed end portion of the needle with a suitable gripping means, disengaging the shank portion of the needle from the needle holder, pulling the needle and the suture completely through the tissue, supporting the needle with a suitable means (e.g. fingers, forceps, etc.) re-gripping the shank portion of the needle with the needle holder and repeating the procedure as necessary.
Although these steps have been used for many years, there are problems associated therewith. For example, due to the inherent sharpness of the pointed end portion of the needle, extreme care has to be used when gripping the needle as it is passing through the tissue. Specifically, if the gripping means is the thumb and forefinger of a medical practitioner, the needle may puncture these appendages. This is of major concern to both the practitioner and the patient, especially with the growing awareness of the means by which viruses such as the AIDS virus and hepatitis can be transmitted. Notwithstanding the potential problems associated with the implementation of this gripping procedure, it is still used by many medical practitioners.
In an attempt to remedy this problem, many medical practitioners use a forceps-type apparatus to grip the pointed end portion of the needle. Although this approach keeps the practitioner's fingers from coming in direct contact with the needle's point, there are still problems associated therewith. For example, with this method it is difficult to manipulate and to orientate the needle so that it can be easily grasped in the needle holder. Also, the needle can easily slip from the grasp of the forceps, as there is metal to metal contact only. This complicates the suturing process.
Over the years, there have been other attempts to improve the manner by which a needle's point is gripped in the suturing procedure.
In one form (U.S. Pat. No. 3,878,848), a surgical needle capturing device, comprising a handle member and a body member which has sufficient resistance to be penetrated by a surgical needle, is described. Although this device will grasp the needle, there is nothing to prevent the needle from passing right through the body member, to expose the pointed end of the needle. Moreover, the device cannot be used to manipulate or hold tissue.
Another existing apparatus (U.S. Pat. No. 5,342,375) is designed to capture and manipulate the movement of surgical needles as they pass through tissue. The apparatus has a removable gripping body component, which is designed to rest against the tissue wall of a patient. This gripping body component has sufficient resistance to be penetrated by and grip, the needle's point.
Such an arrangement allows for a gripping member to be attached to a surgical instrument such as forceps, so that the instrument may be used in one of two ways. Firstly, the instrument performs the function it was initially designed for and secondly, the instrument may be used to retain and manipulate a needle after the suture has been passed. Whilst it is convenient that the one tool can perform two functions, the instrument is used as two separate instruments, which has been found to be relatively inconvenient in the context of conducting surgery. A surgeon needs to re-orient and re-grip the instrument before using the instrument to perform an alternate function (i.e. when switching between an instrument to position tissue and an instrument to receive and retain a surgical needle).
Another apparatus (U.S. Pat. No. 5,490,858) describes another needle capturing device. This device however cannot be used to hold or manipulate tissue, making it necessary for the practitioner to exchange this device with the forceps each time a suture is placed.
The discussion of the background to the invention herein is included to explain the context of the invention. This is not to be taken as an admission that any of the material referred to was published, known, or part of the common general knowledge as at the priority date of any of the claims.
It would be desirable to provide an apparatus which is capable of positioning tissue and is also capable of capturing, manipulating and orienting the movement of a surgical needle passing through the tissue of a patient.
It would also be desirable to provide an improved suturing method and a method of guarding the sharp end of the suture needle from injury to the practitioner or patient, when the needle is not being directed through tissue as part of the suturing process.
According to the present invention, there is provided a surgical instrument for gripping and manipulating a surgical needle, including a hand gripping portion, a tissue manipulating portion and a needle retaining means. The needle retaining means is placed proximal or adjacent to the tissue manipulating portion.
Preferably, the tissue manipulating portion includes a pair of connected arms. Preferably, at least one of the arms is permitted to move from an open position away from the other arm to a closed position next to or closely adjacent the other arm to enable the grasping of tissue therebetween.
Preferably the hand gripping portion includes means for reversibly moving the arms from an open position to a closed position.
In a particularly preferred form, each of the two arms includes a grasping section, proximal to the end of the arm.
The applicant envisages that in one particularly preferred form, the surgical instrument will be in the general configuration of forceps.
Most preferably, the needle retaining means is provided at, or closely adjacent the grasping section of the tissue manipulating portion.
In a particularly preferred form, the needle retaining means is releasably connected to one of the arms of the surgical instrument.
Alternatively, it is to be appreciated that the needle retaining means could be permanently attached to the surgical instrument, such as by welding or brazing. In still a further alternative, the needle retaining means could be integral with, or otherwise form, a structural arm of the forceps.
In a preferred form, the needle retaining means includes a needle pervious material. In one particular form, the needle retaining means is in the form of a rubber or rubber-like or silicone or silicone-like material. Alternatively a magnetic or spring loaded friction clamp could be used.
It is to be appreciated that the needle pervious material should be of sufficient resistance to be penetrated by and grip, the pointed end portion of a surgical needle, as the needle is passed through tissue.
Preferably, the needle retaining means includes a needle impervious casing, surrounding at least a portion of the needle pervious material. The applicant presently envisages that the needle impervious casing would be made of plastic or metal. Most preferably, the casing would include a needle receiving opening to enable the needle to be received by the needle pervious material.
In this one form, the casing could include a releasable connecting means for connecting the casing to the surgical instrument.
In one particularly desirable form, the casing of the needle retaining means is a flexible and resilient plastic sleeve having two longitudinal channels. One of the channels houses the needle pervious material. The other channel is provided as the means for releasably connecting the casing to one of the arms of the surgical instrument.
The present invention also relates to a method of conducting surgery using the aforementioned surgical instrument. Such a method includes the steps of positioning tissue to be sutured within the tissue manipulating portion, passing the point of a needle through the tissue and aligning the surgical instrument so that the needle retaining means is aligned with the point of the needle. Following this, the point of the needle is then passed into the needle retaining means and the surgical instrument is manipulated to pull the needle and attached suture through the tissue.
It is also to be appreciated that the present invention could be adapted for endoscopic use with a retaining means either attached to, or part of the tip of the shaft of the surgical instrument. In such an arrangement, it is envisaged that the surgical instrument would be in the form of forceps.
The present invention also relates to a unit for disposal of a needle retaining means, the unit including a casing and a retaining device for retaining at least one needle retaining means.
The needle retaining means 16 includes a needle impervious casing 15 made of plastic or metal and a needle pervious rubber-like or silicone-like material 18 or alternatively a magnetic or spring loaded friction clamp, which is preferably sterilisable.
It is envisaged that for sterilising purposes, the needle retaining means 16 would be sterilised prior to use. Accordingly, it is envisaged that the needle retaining means 16 would be removed from its packaging 17 shortly before use.
The needle retaining means 16 includes a sleeve through which one of the forceps arms is inserted to connect the retaining means 16 and the forceps 11 together. A locking arrangement is included to retain the retaining means 16 and the forceps 11 connected together. This is in the form of a notch and groove arrangement or other arrangement. The needle retaining means 16 is disposable.
It is to be appreciated, however, that while the illustrated embodiment includes a disposable needle retaining means 16, the needle retaining means 16 need not be disposable. It could be reusable.
As illustrated in
In this position, the needle retaining means 16 can then be used to pull the needle 19 all the way through the opening 21 being sutured, as illustrated in
Once the needle 19 is pulled all the way through the opening 21, the forceps 11 are then used to grasp the other side 26 of the opening 21 being sutured. This is illustrated in
From this position, the needle 19 can then be pulled through the tissue 22 on the other side 26 of the opening 21 by the needle retaining means 16, as illustrated in
Thus, it can be seen that the point of the needle 19 remains guarded at all times, except for when it passed through the tissue and into the needle retaining means 16.
The illustrated embodiment permits a surgeon to alternate between positioning tissue and manipulating a surgical needle, without having to re-grip the instrument and the instrument requires only a small amount of movement. In fact, the instrument of the present invention permits for the simultaneous positioning of tissue for suturing and the retention of the point of the needle, after it is passed through the patient's tissue. For example, when using forceps suturing in a deep wound, the surgeon can pass the needle through the tissue at one side of the wound and into the needle retaining means, whilst using the forceps to retract the other side of the wound. This has the advantage of protecting tissue and reducing the likelihood of needle stick injuries.
The present invention also has the advantage that when the instrument is used to position tissue near the suture location, the needle is presented near the suturing location in the appropriate orientation.
In microsurgery, where suturing is done using a microscope to magnify the image, it is very easy to misplace the suture needle out of the microscope's field. This is very inconvenient, because the surgeon has to move away from the microscope to accommodate normal vision to find the needle. This is not only time consuming, but tiring for the surgeon. With this invention, the needle can be held in the retaining device until needed for the next suture and is therefore easily located or returned to the field of surgery, without the need for the surgeon to re-accommodate his vision on each occasion.
Even when a suture is tied, the needle is held in the retaining member and remains guarded. The surgical instrument can then be passed from the surgeon to other staff members and the needle remains guarded.
As previously mentioned, the needle retaining means 16 may be permanently attached to the forceps 11. Any known method of permanent attachment may be adopted, provided the needle retaining means 16 is securely fastened/attached to the forceps.
It is to be appreciated that the forceps could be packaged in a sterile container and sold as a disposable unit.
It is apparent from the foregoing that various modifications can be made to the embodiments of this invention, without departing from the spirit and scope thereof. These modifications and the embodiments resulting therefrom, will be apparent to those skilled in the art, after reading this disclosure.

The Lotus Development Corporation said it had started outside testing of its 1-2-3 spreadsheet for use with Windows 3.0 software and should be able to ship the product this summer. Analysts have been waiting for the company to release the software for some time. The Microsoft Corporation released Windows 3.0 last May.
Microsoft, based in Redmond, Wash., has already released a Windows 3.0 version of its Excel Spreadsheet software. Marty Fahey, director of spreadsheet marketing at Lotus, said the company, which has 60 to 70 percent of the spreadsheet market, could capture an equivalent share of the Windows spreadsheet market in only a few months.

At a moment of great discovery, one Big Idea can change the world...Niels Bohr's discoveries in quantum theory led to advances in physics and our understanding of atomic structure. His work won him the Nobel Prize in 1922 and his ideas continue to propel physics towards new discoveries. But what is quantum theory? Most of us do not understand even the basics of one of the most significant scientific advances ever made, opening up a whole new field in science, whose ambiguities still challenge scientists around the world. Bohr and Quantum Theory offers an accessible and absorbing account of the man who was both a part of The Manhattan Project but also an advocate of peace. He held the key to understanding such intricate realities as black holes and nuclear energy. Bohr's Big Idea explains complex and crucial ideas in a clear and engaging way, placing quantum theory in the context of a man's life, work and time and examining its important implications for our future. The Big Idea series is a fascinating look at the greatest advances in our scientific history, and at the men and women who made these fundamental breakthroughs.

Hi. I'm an absolute novice at breeding zebrafish and was wondering if anybody came across the following problems.
My fish are 3 months old and breeding resulted in many eggs, but the majority of these were small and abnormal. They had a very condensed irreglar yolk. In addition, there were lots of bits of what looked like an empty chorion - looked just like an empty sac.
The other thing was that breeding wild type fish was successful with many normal looking embryos, but after 72 hours in egg water (with a small amount of methylene blue), there seemed to be a lot of parasites which seemed to have invaded the eggs and pretty much destroyed them.

There once was a girl;
entire heavens sprang from her fingertips.
If you asked nicely
she would tell you what the very angels' singing sounded like.
Her eyes, the brightest shades of silver,
were the twin suns in this enchanted world that she dreamed.
Her sky was vacant and dim in the day
because her suns eclipsed each other
and burned the brightest during the night.
She explained once in a whisper,
she needed some light to keep the monsters away while she slept.
An entire day would go by before she blinked;
she murmured once that she didn't want to miss anything.
Only a fragment of a second to us
could play out to almost a lifetime for her.
Sometimes, I would faintly wonder what that felt like,
to have an entire solar system mapped onto one's thoughts,
when mine totalled to barely a single star.
She was the kind of girl you only meet once in a lifetime.
