|The Gormin
|Tech Age:
|Space Age
|Large blocky humanoid robots
|Common Traits:
|Internal Organics
Zealous to their mission
|Super Robot Diary
|Created by
The Gormin are a cyborg mechanoidrace devoted to hunting down, 'the beast', a terrible eldritch being only they believe exists. In truth they were servants of the Enemy
Appearance Edit
The Gormin appear as ten, fifteen feet tall beings, large insectoids in organic like mech armor. They had long heads with large pincers and three sets of eyes. They also have a pair of insect wings and clawed hands and feet. They also have 'stinger' on the side of their arms.
Nature Edit
On a microscopic level, their bodies are composed of cells integrated with circuitry. On a macro level, they are cyborgs, with a Mechanoid like anatomy.
At the center of their being is a Bio-Core, and their bodies use an odd glowing red blood that can metabolize fuels like Diesel or Engen. They also have a green viscous substance which hold Chlorophyll which allows them to use simple light as an energy source. Their favored energy source is Amalgomous Energy. Without it they are relatively lethargic
Technology Edit
Their technology is heavily based on Active Metal and Protein Circuits. Nearly everything they build has some degree of organic components. Interestingly, they do not have the means of producing their favored source of energy.
- Gormin Stinger: Standard arms, they fire Hyper Lasers
- Gormin Detonator: A grenade that explodes with Amalgomous Energy.
Culture and History Edit
Created by The Enemy, they were created to serve as soldiers in the war to eradicate all other forms of life. They worship their masters as gods and hold carry out their goal with a religious zeal.
At the end of the war, what scant few remained retreated into the core. Many were destroyed by the gravitational forces, but a few remain in hibernation.
Some were turned into The Ones.
Eventually those that remained were consumed to create the Cube
Starships Edit
- Gormin Cruiser: Their seemingly only known vehicle they use.
Trivia Edit
- Their body design is based on Animated Starscream, while the head is based on Animated Waspinator's Wasp Head.

- Hi everybody!!
After getting started in kitesurfing only few days in the Italian seas, on last November I went to Cape Verde where I spent 2 weeks training hard and finally I learned to go upwind and trying my first jumps.
For this kite trip I brought my own equipment: a kiteboard RRD bidi 170cm (not so good for entry-level) and a kite RRD type 4.1 16m.
Now I'd like to buy new equipment and I need some suggestions about board and kite shapes and manufacturers:
1) KITES: In Cape Verde I've been rescued 2 times: I did not succedeed in relaunching the kite because of the strong wind that was dragging me up to Boa Vista Island. So, I need a good relaunchable kite... I've read something about the RECON system employed by Cabrinha. It seems to be a good safety system especially in relaunching the kite (it is almost "invisible"). Another system I read about is the one adopted by wipika which includes a 5th line but.... more lines, more troubles....
More over, the SS fuels are attractive (especially the 2004 production) in terms of performance and material used in construction... Is Naish a really good one??...
So... too many brands are confusing me... What about size and Aspect Ratio? Are those safety systems credibles?
I think I'd have to buy 2 kites. It's better a 12m and a 18m or a 10m and a 16m? What about the manufacturers?? Do you think Cabrinha is a good choise?? which is the best model that combines safety and performance?
2) BOARDS: my intent is to buy a board (not so "radical") which allows me to surf in medium/strong wind. For this reason I think that 140-145 cm is a good lenght What do you think about the slingshot SX series? Are Drops boards good ? Someone told me that the Cabrinha ones are good... Is the Naish "Stubbie" suitable for intermediates??
Please... help me!!!
I wish you all the best.

Webber - There's more to come
Leeds United striker Danny Webber insists that the club's supporters have yet to see the best of him.
By Chris Galea
Last Updated: 28/03/12 11:25am
Leeds United striker Danny Webber insists that the club's supporters have yet to see the best of him.
The 30-year-old has made six appearances for the Championship club since joining on a deal until the end of the season earlier this month.
The former Sheffield United front man was without a club for nine months after struggling with injury following his release from Portsmouth in the summer.
However, Webber says that he is enjoying his return to action and hopes to impress during the final seven games of the season.
Great atmosphere
"I'm just enjoying the freedom of playing football again without any politics or niggles weighing you down," Webber told Sky Sports.
"It is just nice to be playing around good players and a great atmosphere from a top crowd and playing for something.
"There is still a lot to play for with seven games to go and it is a breath of fresh air for me to be playing football in this type of environment.
"I hope the fans have taken to me, but I still feel that I've got a lot more to give for this club yet.
"The reception from the fans has been brilliant so far and the passion is clear for everyone to see at Elland Road and I've always enjoyed playing there during my career, so I'm looking forward to playing for the home team there for the rest of this season."
The Whites welcome one of Webber's former clubs, Watford, to Elland Road on Saturday and he is keen to put one over his old team-mate Sean Dyche, the current Hornets manager.
He added: "I had a good time at Watford and obviously played with Dychey, the current manager down there now, so I know all about him and he knows all about me.
"Watford are a good family club that I always look forward to playing against and have usually done quite well against, so as long as they are safe and we get the three points I'll be happy."

The subject of this article does not physically exist. It exists only as a rumor or a popular imagination but is discussed often enough to keep track of.
StarCraft Online is a rumored hypothetical Massive Multiplayer Online (MMO) game set in the StarCraft universe. The name is from the claim that Chinese online games operator NetEase had acquired the rights to make such a game.[1]
Blizzard Entertainment confirmed the rumor as false, stating the game will be using a new IP.[2]
|12th May 2009–StarCraft MMO Rumor False
by Zarhym
GameSpot has also confirmed the rumor is false.[3] Blizzard has confirmed they are working on a new unnamed MMO, however[4] codenamed Titan,[5] as well as a fifth game, which is currently using the World of Warcraft engine for testing purposes.[6]
Blizzard has stated that their two new games, "Titan" (the next-generation MMO) and the unannounced game use new IPs. Blizzard also has other projects they won't talk about.[7]
In light of the success of Blizzard Entertainment's MMORPG World of Warcraft series, it has become common to question and speculate as to whether an MMO game would be developed for Blizzard's other major franchises of StarCraft and Diablo. While it is known that Blizzard is working on another MMO title,[4] no information has been released as to what this game would entail.
Frank Pearce has commented that while a StarCraft MMO would be "cool", Blizzard's game development staff are spread thinly throughout the projects that Blizzard is working on. An MMO for StarCraft is not something that exists on a short or even medium-term horizon.[8]
Frank Pearce said the success of World of Warcraft would make it difficult to create a StarCraft MMO because the bar has been set so high, and that it would be a lot of work.[9] However, Blizzard believes the StarCraft universe is deep enough to do whatever they want to do, even if it's an MMO.[10]

Question about HP Compaq Presario v3000z Notebook
Yes I tried this. I also reseated the memory modules.
looks like it's the hardware problem.
Posted by BenWu on
Compaq Presario V3000 doesn't start, I don't know if it is a HW or software problem!
Same problem.
I have the same problem too. :(
Cannot startup. Need to turn on and off several times and if I'm reaaally lucky, the laptop will startup.
Once i power on the laptop,all lights seem to be o.k but it doesn't load neither start-up nor operating system.What might be the cause for this?
Same stuff, lights but no screen or response
The harddrive is o.k,DIMMS o.k,processor o.k.Please assist.
There are several possibilities here. Hardware like the hard disk drive or operating system problems and hopefully that's all it is. I'm assuming all are running XP with all the upgrades. The F8 key while booting XP will give you the option of starting in the SAFE MODE. In this environment open your web browser and go to TOOLS, INTERNET OPTIONS, DELETE. Ignore all warnings and delete all files and delete all cookies. Reboot.
On reboot see if XP will boot normally. If not reboot ad enter the safe mode again. Either way go to 'start' 'all programs' 'accessories' 'defrag' and run 'defrag'. reboot and hope all is well. If you are able to get through these processes and there are still problems along the way it would seem that there is either a hard drive problem or a corruption of the XP operating system. Your computer willl need expert hands on advice.

The present application derives priority from U.S. provisional application Ser. No. 60/861,757 filed 30 Nov. 2006.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to lithotripsy equipment and, more particularly, to an improved electrode design that can be universally adapted for use with a range of lithotripters of various manufacturers.
2. Description of the Background
A lithotripter is a device that pulverizes kidney stones and gallstones by passing shock waves through a water-filled membrane that presses against the side of the patient. Extracorporeal shockwave lithotripters (ESWLs) in particular are used for treating kidney and biliary stones. The first ESWL lithotripter was developed in West Germany, and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved its use in the United States in Dec. 1984. Since then hundreds of thousands of patients have been treated. Lithotripters can use a number of methods of generating shock waves. Most typically, shock waves are generated by an electrode or "spark plug" placed at the focus of an ellipsoidal reflector. The spark from the plug vaporizes a small amount of water, creates a shock wave, and the ellipsoid reflector focuses each shock wave to a point about half a foot above it. A bombardment of successive shock waves has been found effective at disintegrating many stones including kidney stones.
The spark plug electrodes are usually constructed with an inner conductor which is surrounded by an insulating layer. The inner conductor extends beyond the insulation to an electrode tip. An opposing second electrode tip is spaced from the first electrode tip to provide a spark gap there between. A cage surrounds the electrodes and provides a conductor and necessary structure.
Examples of electrodes appear in several U.S. patents.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,105,801 to Cathignol et al. (Technomed) suggests that decreasing the resistance of the water decreases the latency time of the shockwave and actually increases the acoustic pressure.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,251,614 to Cathignol et al. discloses a lithotryptor electrode with closely-spaced discharge electrodes forming part of a discharge circuit having an inductance L and a capacitance C defining a critical resistance Rc equal to the square root of (L/C),
U.S. Pat. No. 5,195,508 to Muller et al. (Dornier Medizintechnik) issued Mar. 23, 1993 shows a spark gap unit for lithotripsy with a pencil conductor with an inner electrode, and insulation that envelops the pencil conductor. An external cage conductor is formed with a bow and an outer electrode. The patent illustrates a hollow inner space inside the insulation of the pencil conductor, the space being open rearwardly for easy placement of a current-feeding plug (connected to the inner electrode).
U.S. Pat. No. 4,905,673 to Pimiskern issued Mar. 6, 1990 (Dornier System GmbH) shows a lithotripsy probe with an inner and an outer conductor with electrode tips. The two electrodes have tips of initially different diameter, the tips being flattened (truncated cones) and facing each other, the diameter of inner electrode being initially larger than the diameter of the tip of the outer electrode.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,217,531 to Reitmajer (ITS Medical Technologies & Services GmbH) issued Apr. 17, 2001 shows an adjustable electrode that self-measures the discharge voltage, compares it to a reference voltage, issues a correction signal, and operates an adjusting mechanism that repositions the electrodes, thus optimizing the spark gap.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,047,685 to Nowacki et al. issued Sep. 10, 1991 shows an electrode structure for lithotripters having inwardly turned tips with spaced confronting faces lying on opposite sides of the axis of the reflector.
Extracorporeal lithotripters are quite expensive, typically between $300,000 to $550,000, and their spark plug electrodes such as the foregoing are also expensive components. The rapid and frequent discharges of energy across the electrode tips has been found to erode and/or deteriorate the electrode tips, and replacement is often required.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,420,473 to Thomas issued May. 30, 1995 shows a partial solution in the form of a spark gap electrode assembly for lithotripters that allows easy replacement of both electrode tips without requiring manual adjustment of the spacing between the tips.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,849,994 to White et al. (Healthtronics) issued Feb. 1, 2005 is very similar to the above-noted '473 patent to Howard. Specifically, it shows an electrode assembly for lithotripters with a pencil conductor removably connected to an insulating layer. External threads on the pencil conductor cooperate with internal threads in a bore of the insulating layer to fixably secure the insulating layer in a desired position relative to the inner conductor and discharge electrode tip.
The '473 Thomas and White '994 patents suggests a partial solution to the problem in the form of a spark plug electrode having electrode tips that can be easily replaced. Nevertheless, with these and other known spark plug electrodes the electrode is keyed to the lithotripter and is available only as original equipment dedicated to a particular manufacturer's equipment. Spark plug electrodes from different manufacturers are not interchangeable. This effectively prevents replacement or substitution of the entire spark plug electrode assembly and compels purchase of an original equipment replacement
Accordingly an improved electrode design is needed to allow adaptation to numerous lithotripters from various manufacturers.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a spark gap electrode for lithotripsy machines with an interchangeable adapter that allows the same core electrode design to be interfitted to a variety of different machines from different manufacturers, most of which attempt to uniquely key their spark gap electrode to their particular machine by providing manufacturer-specific connecting receptacles.
It is another object to provide a spark gap electrode for lithotripsy machines as described above that employs a minimum of component parts.
It is still another object to provide a spark gap electrode as above that axially aligns and securely mounts the inner and outer electrode tips in an opposing relation within the spark gap.
In accordance with the foregoing object, the present invention is an improved universal spark gap electrode for use with a variety of lithotripsy machines having different connecting receptacles. The spark gap electrode generally comprises an inner conductor formed as an elongate rod and defined by a threaded receptacle at one end. An insulative sheath is press-fit over the inner conductor, the sheath being formed as a tubular covering for a major portion of the inner conductor. The insulative sheath has a screw threaded section and a pair of O-rings spaced along its length. An inner electrode tip is soldered or brazed into a distal receptacle of the inner conductor, protruding outward past the sheath, and the inner conductor/insulative sheath/electrode tip assembly is inserted through an adapter having a clip mounted exteriorly thereon for engagement with the connecting receptacle of a lithotripsy machine. The inner conductor within the insulative sheath passes through the housing, into an annular base, and into a spark gap cage on the base. The annular base has a double-threaded collar that screw-couples into the housing, and the insulative sheath likewise screw-couples into the threaded collar of the base. A second electrode tip is screw-inserted into the end of the spark gap cage of the base, and the two electrode tips remain opposed and coaxially spaced within the spark gap of the cage. Thus, once electrically connected, the electrode tips generates a spark at the spark gap that vaporizes a small quantity of water, which creates an acoustic shock wave, which can be focused into the tissue of the patient and at a focal point corresponding to the position of a kidney stone or the like. A main advantage of the foregoing design is that the adapter can easily be substituted and replaced by an alternately-configured adapter to mate with other brands of lithotripters.
Other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of the preferred embodiment and certain modifications thereof when taken together with the accompanying drawings in which:
The present invention is an improved electrode design for lithotripsy that can be universally adapted for use with a range of lithotripters of various manufacturers.
The universal electrode 2 generally comprises an inner conductor 10 that is ensheathed in an insulator 12, the insulator 12 being press-fit onto the inner conductor 10. The inner conductor 10 extends through the insulator 12 to an inner electrode tip 14 which protrudes nominally outward from the insulator 12. An opposing outer electrode tip 16 is coaxially spaced from the inner electrode tip 14 to provide a spark gap there between. A cage 18 surrounds the electrodes 14, 16 and provides a conductor and supporting structure therefore. The cage 18 is joined to a base 20, and the base 20 is attached to an adapter 35 that covers the exterior of the insulator 12. The adapter 35 includes a clip 30 that is fixedly attached about an adapter body 40, and the clip 30 defines a coupling that is keyed to a particular lithotripter. In accordance with the present invention, the adapter 35 (inclusive of clip 30) and adapter body 40 are interchangeable as a unit, easily disconnected (as will be described) from the remaining components. The clip 30 may be a molded plastic component attached to the adapter body 40. In the illustrated embodiment, the clip 30 is a molded plastic sleeve compression fit onto a brass adapter body 40, these two components comprising the adapter 35 that may be varied depending in the intended lithotripter for which it is intended. A variety of adapters 35 with different external configurations (including different clips 30) but common internal configurations (to all fit on a common adapter body 40) are made available, and the adapter 35 and adapter body 40 may be easily interchanged with an alternate clip 30/adapter body 40 to thereby accommodate numerous lithotripters from various manufacturers. This effectively allows replacement or substitution of the entire spark plug electrode assembly 2 using this standard configuration, with only the adapter 35 (inclusive of clip 30) changing from unit to unit.
The exterior of the insulator 12 is defined by a cylindrical body with substantially uniform diameter along a majority of its length, and leading into a section of reduced diameter 122. The section of reduced diameter 122 at the junction is defined by a plurality of screw threads 124 for screw-coupling into the adapter body 40. The reduced diameter section 122 is dimensioned to fit snugly inside and through the adapter body 40. In addition, a pair of O-rings 126 encircle the cylindrical body of insulator 12 in advance of the screw-threads 124 to provide a fluid seal within the adapter body 40. O-rings 126 are preferably seated within annular notches defined in the body of insulator 12. Again, the inner electrode tip 14 protrudes slightly outward from insulator 12.
The adapter 35 comprises both the adapter body 40 and clip 30 which is mounted thereon, and while for purposes of illustration the clip 30 is formed as a discrete molded component attached to the adapter body 40, one skilled in the art should understand that the entire adapter 35 may be formed as one unitary component. The adapter body 40 comprises a hollow cylindrical length of brass tube with internal screw-threads at the end 132. The clip 30 is formed with a through-hole and is friction fit overtop adapter body 40. If desired, the clip 30 may additionally be bonded to adapter body 40.
The clip 30 is defined by three separate sections, including a cylindrical section 132 leading to a flange 134, and a detent clip 138 extending from the opposite side of the flange 134. The cylindrical section 132 fits over the internally-threaded end 142 of adapter body 40 as a collar, and abuts the base 20 when the base 20 is screw-inserted into the adapter body 40. The flange 134 limits insertion of the electrode 2 into the lithotripter. The collar 136 fits snugly into the lithotripter for stability, and locks the electrode therein. As shown, the illustrated detent clip 138 is a raised resilient annular member with an outwardly disposed lip for snap-fit insertion into one particular brand of lithotripter. Other lithotripter brands employ different locking mechanisms and the adapter 35 can easily be configured to mate with other brands of lithotripters.
When the base 20 is screw-inserted into the adapter body 40 the inner electrode tip 14 extends into the base 20 and out the other side, extending into the cage 18 opposite outer electrode tip 18. The cage 18 and outer electrode tip 16 are formed as an integral component attached, such as by welding, to the base 20 as shown in
Referring back to
Adapter 35 (left) is as described above. However, the diameter and length of the inner conductor 10 and insulator 12 may vary with each lithotripter. The cage 18 surrounding the electrodes 14, 16 will remain substantially the same, except that its diameter may change. The adaptor 35 must be designed so that the electrode gap is precisely located at the focus of the partial elliptical bowl, e.g., the gap of the universal electrode 2 must be at the same place and of the same thickness (e.g., 0.5 mm) as the gap of the original equipment electrode supplied with the lithotripter.
Adapter 35A (top left) is similar but is formed with a prolonged and tapered cylindrical section 132A, and a longer raised collar 136A on the opposite side of the flange 134A.
Adapter 35B (top second from left) is formed as a unitary machined part with a pronounced flange 134B and seated O-ring 139 for sealed coupling to the lithotripter. Some lithotripters use a clip type adaptor as described previously while others use a metal ring-type adaptor. Adapter 35B is designed for the latter. In all such cases the universal electrode 2 is able to screw into a receiving hole in the appropriate lithotripter.
Adapter 35C (top second from right) is likewise formed as a unitary machined part similar to 35B but with a shorter flange 134B and no O-ring.
Adapter 35D (right) is likewise formed as a unitary machined part and includes as hort broad collar 137 and pronounced O-ring protruding sidewardly there from.
In all the foregoing examples all such adapters 35, 35A, 35B, 35C and 35D are uniform in certain respects including the same dimensioned through-hole, as illustrated in
In use, the proper adapter 35 is selected and installed as per the foregoing in accordance with the particular brand of lithotripter into which the electrode 2 will be installed. Once installed, the electrode 2 will generate a spark at the spark gap between electrode tips 14, 16 and inside cage 18. This spark vaporizes a small quantity of water, and the vaporization process emits an acoustic shock wave. The spark gap will be positioned at one focus of a partial elliptical reflector filled with a fluid, as known in the art. Thus, the acoustic shock wave is focused into the tissue of the patient and at a focal point corresponding to the position of a kidney stone or the like. A rapid succession of such shock waves is highly effective at disintegrating kidney stones.
Having now fully set forth the preferred embodiments and certain modifications of the concept underlying the present invention, various other embodiments as well as certain variations and modifications thereto may obviously occur to those skilled in the art upon becoming familiar with the underlying concept.
For example, it is possible to use one or two press fits instead of threads 123 for the coupling of the cage 18 to the adaptor 35 and/or for coupling of the insulator 12 to the cage 18. Also, the center conductor 10 might be formed with an integral inner electrode tip 14 rather than a receptacle with soldered or brazed tip 14. Finally, there are currently two categories of commercial lithotripters that require two different cage 18 diameters, and for manufacturing convenience it is presently envisioned that two different universal electrodes 2 will be offered with the two cage widths, one for the Lithotron™, HM3™, Medstone™ and Lithodiamond™ lithotripters, and one for the Medispec™ and Direx™ lithotripters. Therefore, in all such cases it is to be understood, that the invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically set forth herein.

Commodore 64 Back
April 8, 2011 by staff
Commodore 64 Back, Everything old is new again, as the saying goes, and the most recent example is the new Commodore, which looks exactly like the home computer once popular was instituted in 1982. Under the skin of beige, is a completely new, with a dual core Intel Atom 1.8GHz processor, Nvidia graphics chipset Ion2, and up to 4 GB of RAM and 1TB of memory. As with the original, the monitor sold separately. This wonderful bit of nostalgia lists 80 and for the standard model, but the updates are available, and the basis of a "do it yourself" package for $ (bring your own motherboard, DVD player, hard disk and all I want). With Blu-Ray and HDMI, is the ideal way to watch your DVDs Thundercats!
U.S. Commodore LLC, which was founded in with the express purpose of reviving the nostalgic brand, began selling the new 64 at its website on Tuesday. It is "a modern and functional PC as close to the original design as is humanly possible," according to the company, which recently acquired the license for the brand. The "new" team previously reported by the Los Angeles Times.
"When the Commodore met its untimely demise in the mid-nineties, we believe that something of great value was lost in the technology world," Altman says CEO Barry Commodore at the site of Commodore. The company is the promotion of computers as an option for people who want something outside the mainstream, trying to sell their products with a poetic: "I'm not a PC. I'm not a Mac I am a Commodore!"
The new team combines nostalgia with real computing power. "The keys are exactly the same way as the original and are the same color. No expense has been spared," says the company. Like the original, the new Commodore looks like a bulky keyboard, no monitor or mouse.
And the new Commodore 64 and for a basic model costs – the same price as the original 1982.
But there are some important differences. The Commodore 64 Basic 2011 includes an Intel Atom 1.8 GHz processor, 160 GB hard drives and 2 GB of memory – compared with 64 kilobytes of memory that gave the original version of his name. The high-end version of the latest Commodore includes a BluRay drive, gigabytes of memory, WiFi and a 1-terabyte hard disk and 895.
The last Commodore 64 can also run Microsoft Corp. 's Windows, although it is a lesser-known type operating system called Ubuntu. The company says it plans to offer its own operating system that supports Commodore 8 to 16 – and 32-bit software.
The first crop of PCs has been sold, but others will be available from mid-May and early June, the company said. The company did not disclose the number of machines already sold.

This is just an expiriment, but basically, this is the place where you can talk about anything. It does not have to be iCarly-related; in fact, try to steer away from it. You can talk about anything from current events, to pop culture, to just how your day went! I'll start us off with a topic to break the ice...(Feel free to start new topics at any time.)
Global Warming: Hot or Hoax?!
Alright, the title didn't make much sense. lol Anyway, do you believe the earth is actually getting warmer (or colder)? And if so, what should we do about it? OR do you believe it is all just a conspiracy created by the government and it doesn't really exist? DISCUSS!!!!!!!
If this ends up not working, then it's no big deal; I just want to get some real discussions brewing....Have fun!! ;D

But anyway, your description of your son reminds me of Nadia a bit. She sometimes has physical issues that really make her grumpy. When she was born, she had TTN (amniotic fluid in the lungs) and spent a few days in the NICU. They gave her "just in case" antibiotics and she ended up with bad thrush. She was in a bad mood until that subsided and then teething started and pissed her off. She was usually crying when awake unless I was bouncing/swaying/rocking/holding her in extra special and convoluted ways. She had a brief respite for about a year and a half and then ran into constipation issues. I've been dealing with poop issues for about 9 months now and when she hasn't pooped, she's just a complete grumpy bear. When she has recently emptied her bowels, she's happy as a lark. She'll be 3 on Friday next week.

However, I often catch her eating the offending food item later, of course no comment from her as to what changed. She is really into trying things but seems to go from wild trying to regressing to three food items and swings back and forth from these two stages.lula

Instead, I just tell her that cream is for diaperbutts and she can help me put it on the baby and that we don't want to waste it.
So next time "Oh Nadia, the cream is all over your hands again" *sigh* "We don't want to waste it, Mommy."
One of these days I'll get her to stop climbing and twisting and doing everything she can to find the diaper cream I've hidden from her and squeezing it all out.

Today, Skanda made friends with an older boy (maybe 10 or 11?) at the Breastfeeding Rally. They played so well together and the boy was so wonderful with him that I wanted to cry. He was so patient and just listened to him talk without getting impatient that his words weren't clear. He was just the most peaceful kid and they really seemed to like each other. They ran in circles around the fountain for a good hour. I wanted to bring the boy home. It turns out that his mom is a local LLL leader so maybe they'll get to see each other again .

Pit bull victim's family wants to thank rescuer
The family of a 12-year-old Darwin boy who was mauled by a pit bull terrier are trying to find the man who rescued him.
The boy has spoken about his ordeal from his bed at Royal Darwin Hospital, where he is being treated for bites to his arms.
Zac McPhillips was visiting a friend who lived across the road in the Darwin suburb of Anula when the pit bull started barking.
"I ran and he bit me on the leg, I tripped over and he started tearing apart my right arm," he said.
He says the dog kept biting him for 10 minutes and he feared he was going to die until a passerby jumped over the fence and rescued him.
"If the man didn't get the dog off me, yeah, I might've [died]," he said.
He says it initially felt like his arm was being stabbed.
"Then when it stopped biting me, it felt like my arm was on fire," he said.
The boy's family understands the rescuer is a council worker and they would like to thank him in person.
A close family friend, Richard Shiels, says the pit bull attacked the boy's 10-year-old brother a month ago.
The dog was destroyed immediately after yesterday's attack but Mr Shiels is angry that the dog's owner failed to act after the first incident.
"I said he should put the dog down because it drew blood," he said.
"That's an unwritten rule: dog draws blood, put it down."

2.0L DOHC Engine (1990-93 Galant Only)
Many turbocharger failures are due to oil supply problems. Heat soak after hot shutdown can cause the engine oil in the turbocharger and oil lines to "coke." Often the oil feed lines will become partially or completely blocked with hardened particles of carbon, blocking oil flow. Check the oil feed pipe and oil return line for clogging. Clean these tubes well. Always use new gaskets above and below the oil feed eyebolt fitting. Do not allow particles of dirt or old gasket material to enter the oil passage hole and that no portion of the new gasket blocks the passage.
- Disconnect the negative battery cable.
- Drain the engine oil, cooling system and remove the radiator. On vehicles equipped with A/C, remove the condenser fan assembly with the radiator.
- Detach the oxygen sensor connector and remove the sensor.
- Remove the oil dipstick and tube.
- Remove the air intake bellows hose, the wastegate vacuum hose, the connections for the air outlet hose, and the upper and lower heat shield.
- Unbolt the power steering pump and bracket assembly and leaving the hoses connected, wire it aside.
- Remove the self-locking exhaust manifold nuts, the triangular engine hanger bracket, the eyebolt and gaskets that connect the oil feed line to the turbo center section and the water cooling lines. The water line under the turbo has a threaded connection.
- Remove the exhaust pipe nuts and gasket and lift off the exhaust manifold. Discard the gasket.
- Remove the 2 through bolts and 2 nuts that hold the exhaust manifold to the turbocharger.
- Remove the 2 capscrews from the oil return line (under the turbo). Discard the gasket. Separate the turbo from the exhaust manifold. The 2 water pipes and oil feed line can still be attached.
- Visually check the turbine wheel (hot side) and compressor wheel (cold side) for cracking or other damage. Check whether the turbine wheel and the compressor wheel can be easily turned by hand. Check for oil leakage. Check whether or not the wastegate valve remains open. If any problem is found, replace the part. Inspect oil passages for restriction or deposits and clean as required.
- The wastegate can be checked with a pressure tester. Apply approximately 9 psi to the actuator and make sure the rod moves. Do not apply more than 10.3 psi or the diaphragm in the wastegate may be damaged. Vacuum applied to the wastegate actuator should be maintained, replace if leaks vacuum. Do not attempt to adjust the wastegate valve.
To install:
- Prime the oil return line with clean engine oil. Replace all locking nuts. Before installing the threaded connection for the water inlet pipe, apply light oil to the inner surface of the pipe flange. Assemble the turbocharger and exhaust manifold.
- Install the exhaust manifold using a new gasket.
- Connect the water cooling lines, oil feed line and engine hanger.
- If removed, install the power steering pump and bracket.
- Install the heat shields, air outlet hose, wastegate hose and air intake bellows.
- Install the oil dipstick tube and dipstick. Install the oxygen sensor.
- Install the radiator assembly.
- Fill the engine with oil, fill the cooling system and reconnect the negative battery cable.

Remember OnePlus? The startup that announced earlier this year that it would debut in the first half of this year with CyanogenMod as its main operating system? From the looks of it, things are still on track.
The OnePlus One—not to be confused with the HTC One—will feature a 2.3GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor and 4G connectivity. Pete Lau, the CEO of OnePlus and former vice president of Oppo, wrote at length about the company's decision to adopt the 800 instead of next-generation processors like the Snapdragon 801 and 805.
"[The processor] needed to be fast, run smoothly, run multiple programs without fear of lagging or crashing, and still offer great battery performance.
Ultimately, it was clear that the Snapdragon 800 provided the best speed, battery consumption and heat management. It also allows us to get our product in your hand faster, with the highest optimization. We didn't want to announce our product, only to be able to ship it six months later."
Lau did not reveal any other other hardware specifications, though he did mention that the company has its sights set on launching next quarter. OnePlus even held a Reddit "Ask Me Anything" in an effort to drum up some press for its upcoming product, but its two representatives didn't disclose much. The company plans to release more specifications in the coming weeks.
The OnePlus One will likely launch internationally first. There's no word yet on when it will hit the US.

Description: Countries in sub-Saharan Africa were once dismissed by Western experts as being too poor and chaotic to benefit from the antiretroviral drugs that transformed the AIDS epidemic in the United States and Europe. Today, however, the region is courted by some of the most prestigious research universities in the world as they search for resource-poor hospitals in which to base their international HIV research and global health programs. In Scrambling for Africa, Johanna Tayloe Crane reveals how, in the space of merely a decade, Africa went from being a continent largely excluded from advancements in HIV medicine to an area of central concern and knowledge production within the increasingly popular field of global health science.Drawing on research conducted in the U.S. and Uganda during the mid-2000s, Crane provides a fascinating ethnographic account of the transnational flow of knowledge, politics, and research money—as well as blood samples, viruses, and drugs. She takes readers to underfunded Ugandan HIV clinics as well as to laboratories and conference rooms in wealthy American cities like San Francisco and Seattle where American and Ugandan experts struggle to forge shared knowledge about the AIDS epidemic. The resulting uncomfortable mix of preventable suffering, humanitarian sentiment, and scientific ambition shows how global health research partnerships may paradoxically benefit from the very inequalities they aspire to redress. A work of outstanding interdisciplinary scholarship, Scrambling for Africa will be of interest to audiences in anthropology, science and technology studies, African studies, and the medical humanities.

Does it actually stimulate the thyroid or does it regulate the thyroid, or does it make the body respond better to thyroid hormones?

Redford PCs slow to act on Highway 63
EDMONTON, AB (May 22, 2012): Premier Alison Redford's designation of a special advisor on twinning Highway 63 is yet another substitute for real action to improve safety on the deadly highway, the Wildrose Official Opposition said today.
The government has promised to twin Highway 63 several times since 2006, yet the residents of Fort McMurray have seen little action with only 19 km of the 240-km highway twinned so far. Wildrose MLA Shayne Saskiw said local MLAs are elected to represent their constituents and shouldn't need a special designation from the Premier to do so. "It's shocking that the local MLA needs to be promoted to 'Special Advisor' for the constituents of Fort McMurray to have their voice heard at the Legislature," Saskiw said. "This government's record on Highway 63 consists entirely of empty words and broken promises. We need action, not new job titles for local MLAs." Saskiw went on to add that it's time for a provincial infrastructure priority list that puts urgent projects such as Highway 63 along with Highway 881 – which is often used as an alternative to Highway 63 – at the top of the list. "For too long the PC government has politicized infrastructure funding instead of prioritizing urgent important projects like the twinning of Highway 63," Saskiw said. "We look forward to a more concrete timetable for twinning Highway 63 that will address safety concerns and support continued growth in Fort McMurray."

Asthenospermia: Causes, home treatment and prevention
Posted on Oct 23, 2015
Asthenospermia can be defined as the "fatigue" of the spermatozoa which are less mobile than normal. It is identified by the microscopic study of the sperm in an ejaculation. When a man has asthenospermia, sperm motility reduces so that sperm cannot move forward or fertilize the egg smoothly. As a matter of fact, asthenospermia is one of the common causes of male infertility. Therefore, it is necessary for us to know causes and prevention for asthenospermia.
What are the causes of Asthenospermia?
Infection of reproductive system
. Inflammation of Epididymis, seminiferous duct, Seminal vesicle or the reproductive glands can decrease the athletic ability of sperms.
Abnormal liquefaction of seminal fluid. In fact,
non- liquefaction of seminal fluid
 or high viscosity of seminal fluid is the main cause of infertility, which might affect the athletic ability of sperms.
Internal secretion facts. If oestrogen in serum increases, the athletic ability of sperms will be decrease. Besides, over-high testosterone in serum is more likely to restrain sperm's athletic ability.
Long-term abstinence. Long-term abstinence can cause over-thickness of sperms and too many dead sperms. Therefore, it is common for men who don't have ejaculation for a long time to cause asthenospermia. So it is suggested to do abstinence 5 or 7 days before
semen examination
Home Remedies for Asthenospermia
Stay away from cigarettes and alcohol
Practice yoga and meditation to be stress free
Try to exercise regularly
Try to maintain a three day gap between two consecutive ejaculations to remain fertile
Avoid bitter, spicy and acidic foods
Avoid tight underpants to provide an ambient climate for the testicles
Have a good massage therapy with herbal oils to improve blood circulation
Loose excess weight
Have a healthy diet containing whole grains and vegetables rich in proteins and vitamins.
Sperm levels are at the highest in the morning and afternoon making it the best time for love making
Prevention of Asthenospermia
Avoid frequent masturbation. It is a fact that long-term and frequent masturbation can lead to prostatitis and other genital infectious disease, which can also affect sperm's quality and motility. Meanwhile, Ingredient, amount and consistency of sperms are all affected by
excessive masturbation
Keep far away from chemical agents. It is a fact that chemical agents are causes of low sperm motility. So we suggest patients do not use too many chemical agents. For instance, do not wear dry cleanings immediately you bring it back.
Keep a healthy diet. In order to provide the nourishment that sperm motility needs, vegetables, fruits and trace elements are required.
Besides, some habits like smoking, drinking, sitting up late or all night, having hot bath need to be corrected in the daily life. Meanwhile, certain medicines like antibiotics might affect sperm's quality and motility. So in order to avoid the side effect of medicines like antibiotics, you can try herbal,
home or ayurvedic remedies
