Hirkala vs TheCube
Hirkala moves quickly, striking four times: TheCube blocks the first, spins and blocks the second. Cube expects a high attack, but gets hit low, taking 3 points of damage, but manages to block the last blow (17/20). Cube counters with a menacing blow, dealing 4 damage (6/10).
Shadow vs TheCube
Shadow raises her weapon, bows to Cube, and gives him the one-two-three: Cube blocks the first, but the second cuts him lightly for 1 point of damage knocking him off-balance and allowing Shadow's last blow to strike home, dealing 3 points of damage. (13/20). Cube swings from the ground and Shadow is unable to defend herself--the blow strikes true and knocks Shadow to the ground dealing 6 damage (14/20).
FlameBirde vs TheCube
FlameBirde joins in on the action, swinging at Cube twice in succession, but both are easily blocked (13/20). Cube laughs and strikes, dealing 2 points of damage (8/10).
Brainiac vs Panther
Brainiac decides to spread the beatings out and sets her eyes on Panther. She attacks three times, but Panther is too quick and nimbly dodges all three (35/35). Brainiac's last frustrated swing leaves her back exposed, allowing Panther to quickly jab for a point of damage (9/10).
gvg vs curr3nt
gvg and curr3nt begin a dance--a beautiful harmonious dance of great skill. gvg strikes first, but curr3nt slides a shoulder back, allowing the blade to pass centimeters from his chest (25/25). Curr3nt flows like water into a swing, landing a blow that deals 1 point of damage (19/20). gvg accepts the blow and turns with it, minimising the damage and swinging a blow at curr3nt that is casually defended. (25/25). The two bow and exit.
MikeD vs Shadow
MikeD and Shadow face off--MikeD strikes first, hitting Shadow for 3 damage (11/20). Shadow counters, but swings wide (15/15). MikeD takes another opportunity and swings, doing 1 damage (10/20).
Panther vs TheCube
Panther faces Cube and takes a swing, but misses entirely. (13/20). Cube's counter looks deadly, but Panther moves at the last second (35/35). Panther attacks a second time and lands a blow for 1 point of damage (12/20).
curr3nt vs TheCube
curr3nt swings and lands a blow on the Cube for 1 damage (11/20). The Cube rotates and swings, but curr3nt jumps high, dodging the attack (25/25), and comes down with another attack of his own doing 1 point of damage (10/20).
TheCube vs Panther
Cubie finally gets to have his revenge, he thinks, and he strikes out against Panther--the blow lands true, dealing 5 points of damage (30/35). Panther tries to recover and fend Cube off, but is too disoriented to land a blow. (10/20). Cube takes advantage of Panther's dizziness and strikes another blow for 5 damage (25/35).
Remember that regen 1/5 of your max HP.

The next few quarters to remain challenging ones for companies
Advance corporate tax paid by the top 94 Mumbai-based corporate houses was down marginally at Rs. 43,123 crore (Rs. 43,586 crore) in the first three quarters of this fiscal, according to Income-tax Department sources.
These companies, which contribute about 70 per cent of overall corporate tax collection in Mumbai, paid Rs.16,691 crore (Rs.16,750 crore) for the December quarter.
One time gain
The fall in advance tax collection is more disturbing considering that companies pay about 75 per cent of their tax commitment for the fiscal in the December quarter, said a cement company executive. "With no indication of a respite from high interest in the RBI policy on Friday, we expect the next few quarters to remain challenging; companies conserve cash by trimming down on spends and tightening capital expenditure," he added.
Piramal Healthcare, which paid Rs.3,543 crore last year, has paid just Rs.5 crore (Rs.2,650 crore) in the first three quarters this fiscal. The company had one-time revenue from exit of core business last year. The hardship faced by the oil and gas sector was more than highlighted from the fact that Indian Oil, which paid Rs.1,276 crore in tax last fiscal, has not paid advance tax till the December quarter. Similarly, BPCL has also skipped payment so far against Rs.112 crore paid last fiscal.
Holcim Group companies Ambuja Cement and ACC saw payouts doubling to Rs.113 crore (Rs.60 crore) and Rs.95 crore (Rs.40 crore), respectively, largely due to lower base last year. Aditya Birla Group companies UltraTech Cement and Grasim paid lower advance tax of Rs.210 crore (Rs.230 crore) and Rs.120 crore (Rs.160 crore). Lafarge's payout was cut to Rs.45 crore (Rs.68 crore).
In the metals space, Hindustan Zinc paid Rs.400 crore (Rs.325 crore), while Hindalco maintained its payment at last year's level of Rs.200 crore. Engineering and infrastructure major L&T's payment was lower at Rs.350 crore (Rs.370 crore).
The higher tax payment by some of the metal and cement companies amid slowing infrastructure activities was mainly due to sharp raise in selling price and increase in their production capacity, said an analyst.
Auto majors Tata Motors and M&M disappointed with a lower payout of Rs.80 crore (Rs.220 crore) and Rs.210 (Rs.230 crore), respectively, even as Bajaj Auto raised the payment by 22 per cent to Rs.450 crore (Rs.370 crore).
So far, so good
The direct tax collections for the April-November period registered a growth of 20 per cent at Rs.3.04 lakh crore (Rs.2.54 lakh crore). The government has set a target for direct tax collections of Rs.5.85 lakh crore for this fiscal. Gross corporate tax collected was up 20 per cent at Rs.1.99 lakh crore (Rs.1.67 lakh crore) over the same period last year.

Examples and videos show how to use a VLOOKUP formula to pull data from the master table. Troubleshoot VLOOKUP when things go wrong
You can watch the steps for creating this formula in the Product Price VLOOKUP video, show below. The written instructions are below the video.
It's a good idea to store each lookup table on a separate worksheet in the workbook. Then, as you add and delete rows in the lookup tables, you won't accidentally add or delete rows in any other table.
In this example, the lookup table is on a sheet named Products.
Lookup formulas can work vertically, looking for values down a column, or they can work horizontally, looking for values across a row. In this example, the information will be stored vertically, with values down a column, and later we'll use a VLookup formula to do a vertical lookup.
Note: To make it easier to refer to the table, you can name the range. There are instructions here: Naming a Range
The VLOOKUP function has four arguments:
Once you have created the lookup table, you can create other formulas in the workbook, and pull information from the product list. For example, to prepare an invoice, you can enter a product code, and formulas will get the product name or price from the product table.
In this example, the invoice is created on a sheet named Invoice. The VLOOKUP formula should find an exact match for the product code, and return the product name.
To create the VLOOKUP formula that calculates the product price, follow these steps:
Note: To return the product price, create a VLOOKUP formula
that refers to column 3 of the lookup table. For example, enter the
following formula in cell C7:
In some situations, an approximate match is preferred, so several values will return the same result. For example, when grading student papers, all papers with a grade of 85 or over should receive an A grade.
To view the steps for creating this formula, please watch the VLOOKUP video shown below. The written instructions are below the video.
In this example, the lookup table is created on a sheet named Grades. To create the lookup table, enter the minimum score for each grade in column A. Enter the matching Grade in column B. Sort the Scores in Ascending order.
Cells A2:B6 were named GradeList.
The scores are entered on a sheet named Report Card, where a VLOOKUP formula calculates the grade.
You can use an IF formula with a VLookup formula, to return exact values if found, and an empty string if not found.
To see the steps for setting up the IF and VLOOKUP formula, you can watch this short video. The written instructions are below the video.
To hide errors by combining IF with VLOOKUP, follow these steps:
If the lookup table contains any blank cells, a VLOOKUP formula will
return a zero, instead of a blank cell. You can use nested IFs to
handle the #N/A results, and the empty cell results. For example:
Thanks to Chip Pearson for suggesting this formula.
In Excel 2007, a new function, IFERROR, was introduced. You could use an IFERROR formula with VLookup to check several tables for a value, and return the related information when found. In this example, three regions, West, East and Central, have order sheets. On each sheet is a named range -- OrdersW, OrdersE and OrdersC.
On a sheet named Orders, you can enter an Order ID, then use a VLOOKUP with IFERROR to check each named range, and view the information about the selected order.
This checks the OrdersE table and if an error is found, checks OrdersW table, then OrdersC. If the OrderID is not found in any of the three tables, the Not Found message is shown in the cell.
You can also check multiple tables in older versions of Excel, where IFERROR is not available, using a longer formula:
VLOOKUP(B8,OrdersC,2,FALSE),"Not Found"))))
In some tables, there might not be unique values any column in the lookup table. For example, in the table shown below, Jacket is listed twice in column A. However, there is only one record for each jacket and size combination -- Jacket Medium in row 4 and Jacket Large in row 5.
If you need to find the price for a large jacket, a VLOOKUP based only on column A would return the price for the first jacket listed (Medium). You would be underpricing the jacket -- selling it for 60.00, instead of 65.00.
To create unique lookup values, you can insert a new column at the left side of the table, and use a formula to combine the product and size. In cell A2, the formula combines the value in B2 and the pipe character and the value in C2.
Copy that formula down to the last row of data, so each row has a unique value in column A.
Note: Instead of the pipe character, you could use another character that isn't included in your data.
Then, in a VLOOKUP formula, combine the product and size as the Lookup_value. In cell H1, the formula combines the value in F1 and the pipe character and the value in G1.
Note: The price is now in column 4, instead of column 3.
Your VLOOKUP formula may return an #N/A, even though the value you're looking for appears to be in the lookup table.
A common cause for this error is that one of the values is a number, and the other is text. For example, the lookup table may contain '123 (text), and the value to look up is 123 (a number).
If possible, convert the text to numbers, using one of the methods shown here: Convert Text to Numbers
If you can't convert the data, you can convert the lookup value within the VLOOKUP formula:
If the lookup table contains numbers, and the value to look up is text, use a formula similar to the following:
The double unary (--) converts text to a number, and will work correctly even if the lookup values are numbers.
If the lookup table contains text, and the value to look up is numeric, use a formula similar to the following:
=VLOOKUP(A7 & ""),Products!$A$2:$C$5,3,FALSE)
The TEXT function converts a number to text, and will work correctly even if the lookup values are text. In the first example, the & operator creates a text string from an unformatted number. In the second example, a number formatted with leading zeros (e.g. 00123) would match a text "number" with leading zeros.
To see the steps for fixing the VLOOKUP problem when the lookup table has text values, watch this short video tutorial.
Another potential cause for no matching value being found is a difference
in spaces. One of the values may contain leading spaces (or trailing,
or embedded spaces), and the other doesn't. To test the values, you
can use the LEN function, to check the length of each value.
For example: =LEN(A7) will return
the number of characters in cell A7. It should be equal to the number
of characters in the matching cell in the lookup table.
If possible, remove the unnecessary spaces, and the VLOOKUP formula
should work correctly. If you can't remove the spaces, use the TRIM
function in the VLOOKUP, to remove leading, trailing or duplicate
spaces. For example:
If TRIM function alone doesn't solve the problem, you can try adding the SUBSTITUTE function, to remove unwanted characters. There is an example on the Contextures blog: Clean Excel Data With TRIM and SUBSTITUTE
Another way to fix VLOOKUP problems is with the CLEAN function, which can remove some unwanted characters from the text. There is more information on the CLEAN function in this Contextures blog post: 30 Excel Functions in 30 Days: 29 � CLEAN
If you copied data from a web page, it may contain non-breaking space ( ) characters. David McRitchie has written a macro to remove them, along with other spaces characters -- http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/join.htm#trimall

Description This application contains subject matter of my provisional application Ser. No. 60/241,067, filed Oct. 17, 2000, entitled Surgical Instrument, and in my provisional application Ser. No. 60/286,188, filed Apr. 24, 2001, entitled Light Cone. 1. Field of the Invention The invention relates to surgical instruments, and, more particularly, to diagnostic and surgical instruments for use in abdominal, thoracic, vaginal, anal or other surgical procedures that may also include endoscopies. 2. General Background and State of the Art Certain surgical and diagnostic devices are known for examining vaginal and other cavities. For example, women of a certain age should have a diagnostic pap smear annually. Certain prior art devices, known as speculums, are used which consist of a pair of wide or broad blades. Also, when such instruments are used in examining a body cavity, such as the vagina, a second instrument is inserted into the vagina through the speculum. Such an instrument is called a lateral vaginal retractor and is used to retract the vaginal sidewalls which normally obstruct the doctor's view into the patient's cervix. During a surgical procedure, the surgeon needs to insert a clamp, a source of lighting, a suctioning catheter, and irrigation tube through the speculum, thus further obstructing the surgeon's view of the cervix which might interfere with the surgical procedure being performed. In my U.S. Pat. No. 5,868,668, I disclose a surgical and diagnostic instrument which eliminates the need for an external lateral vaginal retractor during vaginal surgery. The instrument is anatomically designed with a narrow oval shape in its closed position to allow it to be inserted comfortably into the patient's vagina without the discomfort generally associated with a conventional speculum. It also allows the introduction of other instruments such as a light, an irrigation tube, etc. without obstructing the surgeon's view. In my pending application Ser. No. 09/578,016, filed May 24, 2000 (pending), I disclose an improvement of the surgical device in my patent wherein the upper blade is U-shaped in cross-section having lateral blades for improved visualization. In my provisional application Ser. No. 60/241,067, filed Oct. 17, 2000, entitled Surgical Instrument, I disclose a vaginal speculum having a first vertical blade which is hinged and extends outwardly and upward with two lateral blades attached. The second blade contains the tracks for the first blades for adjustable hinging and two mounted rectangular lateral angled braces that permit both lateral blades of the first component to pivot outwardly and increase the tension of the outward portions of the lateral blade. This provides a greater resistance against the tissues that might otherwise bend the distal portions of the blades inwardly thereby obscuring the view of the operator. Also, the lateral blades prevent vaginal and other membranes from cascading inwardly and obstructing the view. Thus, the instruments and operative procedures can be more easily and efficaciously managed through the aperture between the spread-apart four blades. Thus, I disclose an upper blade having two spaced side lateral blades. The lower blade has two side lateral blades. Although such a speculum has obvious advantages, I find that there is a need for having these upper side lateral blades integral with the upper blade rather than hinged thereto as in my provisional application, and, as will be discussed hereinbelow, have multiple blades in vertical and lateral positions. In my provisional application Ser. No. 60/286,188, entitled Light Cone and filed Apr. 24, 2001, I disclose a light cone for use with a surgical instrument, such as the speculum in my U.S. Pat. No. 5,868,668 and in my pending application. There is thus a need for a surgical instrument, such as a speculum, to have multiple blades in vertical and lateral positions along with provisions for a light cone. It is an object of this invention to provide a multi-bladed, vaginal diagnostic and surgical instrument which is quickly and easily activated to expand the blades with slight rotation movement and with little discomfort to the patient having multiple blades in vertical and lateral positions. It is still further an object of this invention to provide such an instrument having a portable light cone for illuminating the surgeon's working area without interfering with the surgeon's view through the instrument, avoids contamination with the surgical procedure and is away from the containment area and away from the bleeding area and is reusable. It is another object of this invention to provide such a surgical instrument having a passageway for feeding a suction tube therethrough to suction out blood, smoke or tissue or the like during an invasive procedure without interfering with the surgeon's view through the instrument. These and other objects are preferably accomplished by providing a surgical instrument for spreading apart openings of natural orifices or surgically made openings to perform procedures on internal structures and/or organs of a patient. The instrument includes a main body portion having multiple blades in vertical and lateral positions that open to spread apart the area being examined so that a surgical tool can be inserted therein. The instrument has a light cone associated therewith for illuminating the surgeon's work area and a passageway through which a tube may be fed to suction out smoke, blood gases, or tissue or the like. FIG. 1 is a rear perspective view of an assembled surgical instrument in accordance with the teachings of the invention; FIG. 2 is a front perspective view of the surgical instrument of FIG. 1; FIG. 3 is a front perspective view of the lower blade member alone of the surgical instrument of FIGS. 1 and 2; FIG. 4 is a rear perspective view of the lower blade member of FIG. 3; FIG. 5 is a front perspective view of the upper blade member alone of the surgical instrument of FIGS. 1 and 2; FIG. 6 is a side elevational view of the upper blade member of FIG. 5; FIG. 7 is a rear elevational view of the upper blade member of FIG. 5; FIG. 8 is a front elevational view of the upper blade member of FIG. 5; FIG. 9 is a side elevational view of the assembled upper and lower blade members of the surgical instrument of FIGS. 1 and 2; FIG. 10 is an elevational view of a light transmitting device adapted to be used with the surgical instrument of FIGS. 1 to 9; FIG. 11 is a detailed view of a light carrying cone of FIG. 10; FIG. 12 is a top plan view of the device of FIG. 10; FIG. 13 is a view taken along lines 13�13 of FIG. 10; FIG. 14 is an elevational view of a prior art illuminating device used with the device of FIG. 10; FIG. 15 is an elevational view of a resilient sleeve adapted to be used with the device of FIG. 10; and FIG. 16 is a view, taken along lines 16�16 of FIG. 14. Referring now to FIG. 1, a surgical instrument 10 is shown having a handle 11. A pair of upper and lower blades 12, 13, respectively, are provided. Blade 13 is an integral part of handle 11 and, as seen in FIG. 2, has a generally flat or slightly concave in cross section interior surface 14 and a pair of spaced upstanding sidewalls 15, 16 forming lower vertical blade portions. As seen in FIG. 3, wherein handle 11 and blade 13 are shown removed from upper blade 12, an opening 17 is provided through handle 11. Opening 17 (see also FIG. 4) has a lower end portion 18 wider than upper portion 19. A rib or flange 20 extends from opening 17 to the bottom terminal end 21 of handle 11. Also as seen in FIGS. 3 and 4, upstanding walls 15, 16 curve around and meet at front curved wall portion 21 integral therewith. The rear end (opposite curved portion 21) of blade 13 above opening 17 has a pair of spaced outwardly extending curved flanges 22, 23 each having a nub (as nubs 24, 25, respectively) extending outwardly therefrom for reasons to be discussed. The upper blade 12 is shown removed from lower blade 13 in FIG. 5. It can be seen that blade 12 has a generally flat or slightly concave in cross-section undersurface 26 and is curved at its front end 27. A pair of downwardly extending elongated flanges 28, 29, spaced from blade 12 forming slots 30, 31, respectively, are provided on each side of blade 12. As seen in FIG. 6, blade 12 curves rearwardly and upwardly forming an upper section 32 which may be slotted, as at spaced slots 33 (FIG. 7). Referring again to FIG. 5, a pair of ports 34, 35, respectively, are provided aligned with each flange 28, 29, respectively. These ports having openings leading therein (openings 36, 37 for ports 34, 35, respectively, shown in FIG. 7) for use during an operation as will be discussed. Ports 34, 35 are generally similar (see also FIG. 1) each having an opening, such as opening 37, leading into a closed chamber aligned with its respective flange, such as flange 29. However, port 35 is closed at its forward end 38, for reasons to be discussed, whereas port 34 is open at open end 39 (FIG. 8). Both parts 34, 35 may be tapered from its respective opening 36, 37 to its forward end. As seen in FIG. 7, upper blade portion 12 has a U-shaped cut out area 40 below section 32 with an extension portion 41 extending downwardly from area 40. A pair of elongated openings or slots 42, 43 are provided in sidewalls 44, 45 respectively (see FIGS. 6 and 8). As seen in FIG. 6, each opening 42, 43 has a plurality of grooves 46, 47 (FIGS. 5, 6 and 8) extending along one side of each opening 42, 43 for reasons to be discussed. Extension portion 41 terminates at its lowermost end in a V-shaped wedge portion 48. Also, a latch member 49 (see also FIG. 8) extends outwardly from extension portion 41 above wedge portion 48 having a plurality of spaced ribs 50 (see FIG. 5) thereon adapted to engage and ratchet with the sidewalls 51, 52 (FIG. 3) of opening 17 as will be discussed thereby providing ratchet means for the instrument 10. As seen in FIG. 8, wedge portion 48 has a concave thumb rest area 53 for reasons to be discussed. The assembly of the part shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 to the part shown in FIGS. 5 to 8 is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. The latch member 49 is extended into opening 17 (FIG. 2). As seen in FIG. 9, when, one of the ribs 50 of latch member 49 engages and is stopped by its engagement with sidewall 51 (FIG. 3). Nubs 24, 25 (FIG. 4) engage one of the grooves in ratchets 46, 47 (FIG. 5), e.g., the uppermost groove in FIG. 9, thus allowing flanges 28, 29 to extend on the outside of each sidewall 15, 16 when the upper and lower blades 12, 13 are in the FIG. 9 closed position. Pushing up on the extension portion 41 via thumb rest area 55 moves extension portion 49 upwardly within opening 17 to allow ribs 50 to engage the sidewalls in the upper narrower portion 19 of opening 17 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 thus opening or separating blades 12, 13. The upper end of opening 17 acts as a stop and nubs 24, 25 move downwardly along the grooves of ratchets 46, 47 (see nub 25 and ratchet 46 in FIG. 2) providing ratchet means for the instrument 10. It can be seen that there is disclosed an improved Surgical Instrument over that disclosed in my U.S. Pat. No. 5,868,668, the teachings of which are incorporated herein by reference. In this patent, I disclose how such a surgical instrument is used for spreading apart openings of natural orifices or surgically made openings to perform procedures on internal structures and/or organs of a patient. The instrument includes a plurality of blades that open to spread apart the area being examined so that a surgical tool can be inserted therein as discussed in my patent. The wide opening 40 allows the instrument to be eliminated from the area of view by allowing the surgical tool to pass therethrough while maintaining the spread-apart condition of the area being examined. The blades can then be restored to their closed position after the tool is withdrawn. However, in the instant invention, the side blades are an integral part of the lower member and the upper member also has side or lateral blades. Port 35 is a light chamber in the form of a curved solid plastic cone tapered at its forward end to transmit light. As seen in FIG. 10, a portable light carrying cone 100 is shown having a base or connector body 101, which may be of clear plastic, directing light from an illuminator or other light sources. The cone 100 shown here is solid and has a tapered distal portion 102 (FIG. 11) and a bulb like proximal end 103 (FIG. 10), within the connector body 101. The tapered portion 102 of the cone 100 is used to fit snugly or tightly into the end 37 (FIG. 1) of cone 35 so that light can be transmitted. The bulb shaped proximal portion 103 (FIG. 10) acts as a magnifier to attract light rays concentrating them into the cone 100 for transmitting the light. The tapered portion 104 of the connector body 101 allows for non-cone absorbing light to be scattered into the area where the cone 100 and body 101 of the connector are directed. FIGS. 10 and 12 show the window opening 105 in body 101 that allows for heat to be dissipated, and the tracks 106 at the bottom of the opening 107 stabilize the illuminator body 101 and center it so that the bulb of the lighting device, to be discussed, doesn't come in contact with the walls of the connector body 101. FIG. 14 shows a conventional prior art illuminating device 108 having a transformer 109, an electrical cord 110, and a light source 111. Light source 111 is shown inserted into cone 100, the terminal or bulb end extending to bulb end 103 (FIG. 10). Any suitable illuminator may be used. For example, the vaginal illuminator system No. 78103 manufactured and sold by Welch Allyn of Skaneateles Falls, N.Y., may be used. The opening 107 and sidewalls (FIG. 13) of housing 101 accommodate the outer configuration of light source 111. The angled tapered front portion 104 of the body 101 permits light to be dispersed to different areas that are targeted as well. The body 101 of the connector also has tracks or slots 106 (FIG. 13) to receive flanges 200, 201 (FIG. 16) on the outer body of the illuminator 111 and its bulb to allow for not stabilizing the light bulb thereof into the center of the cavity 107 of the body 101 so that is does not contact the walls (FIG. 13) of the connector body 101. The posterior portion of the connector body 101 may have an elastic or rubber adapter 112 (FIG. 15) with a hollow tubular interior so that the end of the body 101 fits therein for attaching to different light illuminating devices which may be of different sizes. The cone 100 and connector body 101 are portable, and they are not dependent on other devices or handles. They are not sacrificed with each procedure, as other equipment requires them to be. The cone 100 and body 101 may be of a simplified plastic construction that allows for easy manufacturing as a two-part injection mold for plastic applications. This can also be made by metal molding or casting. The tapered tip 102 produces a tight connection with a circular opening, such as opening 37, in any instrument receptacle designed for this procedure. Body 101 has an open area 105 of the connector body 101 near the cone projection that allows heat to escape caused by the bulb of illuminator 111. Cone 100 has a curved cone projection 103 that may be solid plastic and provides the transmission of the light from the bulb of illuminator 111 or any other source to a specific area directed by the tip of the cone 100 out through end 38 which my be of clear plastic. There thus is disclosed in FIGS. 10 to 16 a light connector possessing at its front portion a curved solid plastic cone tapered at its distal end for light transmission. The connector body unites with the cone having a bulb shaped proximal portion that allows for light to be collected and transmitted to the end of the curved cone. This allows light to be carried into difficult areas as well as directed to the front of medical devices through an aperture that permits the tapered cone to fit tightly. The connector body of this unit has a slot opening in the rear portion permitting the light bulb and the illuminator body to penetrate into the cavity of the connector body. The connector body has a tracking mechanism that keeps the illuminator and light bulb in a central position without touching the inner walls of the plastic housing of the connector body. The front portion of the connector body has a window opening that permits the escape of heat from the illuminator bulb. Any suitable catheter tube can be inserted into opening 36 to suction fumes or fluids during any surgical procedure. Such a tube, such as �″ tubing, can friction fit into opening 36. The upstanding sidewalls 15, 16 of the lower blade member act as shields or protectors so, for example, vaginal membranes do not cascade into the device during a surgical procedure. The slots 33 (FIG. 7) can be used to insert a tube for lighting, or a handle of a tenaculum or a suction tube. The lower blades 15, 16, along with the central cavity surrounded by blades 15, 16, keep blood or the like from a surgical procedure from dripping on equipment below. The upper portion can be removed from the lower portion of the instrument 10. The improved surgical device disclosed herein has the following improvements over prior art devices: 1. Lateral Wall retraction with unobstructed view 2. Light Port 3. Suctioning Port (a) Fumes (b) Intrauterine Procedures 4. Tenaculum Port or Ports 5. Wide blades 6. Narrow blades 7. Diagnostic Applications 8. Surgical Applications 9. Disposable 10. Clear Plastic Any suitable dimensions may be used. The materials may be in the thickness range of 0.03 to 0.10 inches and the length of the lateral blades may be in the range of 2 to 6 inches. Plastic or metal can be used. The lateral blades may constitute a component (attached) to the top vertical blade as seen in FIG. 1. The lateral blades may constitute a component (attached) to the bottom vertical blade as seen in FIG. 1. If the top portion is removed from the bottom portion, an instrument is created having two lateral blades. If the top portion is attached, a four blade instrument is provided. The vertical and lateral blades are conduits for the light transmission or the lateral blades may alone carry fiberoptic light and/or tube attachments for suctioning as discussed. As a consequence of this application, the thickening of the structure of the lateral blades may offer more strength in their capacity to retract tissue. Light transmissions for all or part of the blades may be part of the electromagnetic spectrum, i.e., ultraviolet and infrared for diagnostic and treatment purposes. The proximal portion of the top, vertical blade contains three U-shaped openings 33. These openings or slots may be used for hooking instruments, light or suctioning tubes or any combination of these. The tracks for lateral portions of the vertical blades avoids lateral movement. The lower anterior of the top vertical blade handle has a projection as a trigger for mating, releasing and contains a nubbing 24 and 25 for locking the vertical blade's position. All four blades have a fixed position. The lateral or side blades may have a longitudinal curvature for strength. The bottom vertical side blades act as a recess for lateral blades with speculum. This recess formation allows for the collection of blood and/or tissues (a reservoir) from the surgery. The bottom blade may have a mid and an outward angular brace that will force the lateral blades outward (2 to 15 degrees). These spread the lateral blades outward (laterally) with a force to avoid inward bending of their distal tips. The handles of both vertical blades may be darkened to allow for light transmission to the distal portions of the blades for lighting. The wide web-like base between the lateral blades imparts greater strength to the lateral blades so as to resist inward bending of the blades. The vertical blades in the closed position are flushed and smooth for use. The tips of all blades may be smooth and rounded to avoid injury to the patient. All blades may be in varying sizes in length, width, etc. for pediatric and adult usage. The lateral walls of the vertical blades have gates for holding instruments and ties as necessary while performing surgical procedures as discussed in my U.S. Pat. No. 5,868,668. Any suitable colors may be used. The bottom blade contains a center recess for holding instruments. The blades may be coated for use with lasers. Finally, special plastics may be used for re-useable instruments that can withstand sterilization. While the specification describes particular embodiments of the present invention, those of ordinary skill can devise variations of the present invention without departing from the inventive concept.

Please critique my 3 1/2 year old pony Hi guys! New here, but not new to forums. Can't wait to get more active in this forum as well. Here is my 3 1/2 year old new forest pony gelding. He has been out of work for a few months now, just letting him have some time off after an active summer. These pictures are from a couple days ago, as well as the videos. He hasn't been on the lunge in a while... http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n...e/IMAG0346.jpg http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n...e/IMAG0639.jpg http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n...e/IMAG0354.jpg http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n...e/IMAG0351.jpg http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n...IMAG0350-1.jpg videos (turn your sound down unless you wanna here my annoying voice along with my mom's ... ) http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n..._VIDEO0049.jpg http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n..._VIDEO0047.jpg thank you so much! |
How tall is he as he looks very tall for a new forest? |
Awww hes cute:) |
That is a very nice looking pony! His conformation looks very correct. |
Ok that makes sense sorry just being nosey |
That's okay! Haha, I get that a lot when people see pictures of him... "Are you sure he's a pony???" LOL |
very horse type despite his pony breeding. a tad downhill and croup high and a little upright in the shoulder. I'm also not particularly fond of his hindquarter. but he's a very pretty fellow and i can see him in the show ring. Posted via Mobile Device |
Thanks! He is slightly downhill right now, i think... but I believe he will grow out of it. Funny you say he is upright in the shoulder, as I have heard otherwise! And yes, he is very horse-looking. That's what New Forest Ponies are supposed to be bred to look like, so yay! |
He's not hugely upright, I'd just like to see a touch more slope (I am strange, I ride jumpers not dressage, but I still like a dressage-type shoulder). That kind of shoulder conformation is very common in the ponies. If he's 14.2 NOW he may mature to be horse-sized rather than pony-sized, even if only by a tiny margin. At 3 1/2 he does still have the potential to level out but they've done most of their growing by then so I wouldn't rely on it. But he's not very much downhill so it's really no big deal. He's really a very nice pony and I'd be proud to have him, if he was mine. |

A doctor?s visit by Britney Spears sparked a media frenzy this evening when it was reported the singer was headed for the emergency room.
But instead, Britney was merely on her way to see dentist-to-the-stars, Dr. Billy Dorfman!
Gossip blog sites reported earlier this evening that a bodyguard had taken Spears to an ER at Century City Doctor's Hospital. But the building is confusing and she took a wrong entrance and landed in the ER.
Photo Credit: Fly Net
"This is getting so ridiculous," her manager, Larry Rudolph, told Access Hollywood."Every time she sneezes it's front page news. Everyone needs to just leave her alone right now and give her some space."
It was reported that cops were forced to swarm the area for crowd control due to a host of paparazzi visiting the hospital, but Access Hollywood found none at the scene.
Spears has had a fairly normal weekend since leaving rehab, working, eating and attending to personal business.
On Friday she was spotted at Millennium Dance Complex, before traveling to a sushi restaurant for dinner. She followed that up Saturday with a trip to have her nails done at Epitome Salon.
On Sunday, the southern singer visited Bel Air Presbyterian Church on Sunday before eating lunch at Barefoot Caf�.
Meanwhile, Britney's soon-to-be-ex-husband, Kevin Federline,was off celebrating his 29th birthday at Pure nightclub at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas.
K-Fed reportedly partied with his father, mother, brother, and ex-girlfriend, Shar Jackson. The Pussycat Dolls presented him with his cake.
His children with Britney, Sean Preston and Jayden James, reportedly were in Sin City, but left in the hotel room.

What a great reference! Actually, when you slow it down they sound less alike. But it's a conspiracy, maaaaaan. You Sharpie One I live just northwest of LGB. About 11am I spotted Marine One and the whole helo contingent, and I thought that was pretty cool to see. About a half hour later I hear a jet, step out on my patio and there is an F-16 at about 1500 feet in full afterburner making a hard right turn back towards the airport. You don't see that (full afterburner) very often around here, and I was pretty shocked. Every car alarm in this part of town went off. I didn't realize they were after an airspace violator. The F-16's ripped around for about 15 minutes before everything settled down. This guy picked a bad day to stop sniffing glue! "This guy picked a bad day to stop sniffing glue! " LMAO!!!! Just don't call him "Shirley" an F-16 at 1500 ft in full A.B. worth the price of a ticket. LOVE IT, LOVE IT "Hello Cessna ... This is the USAF ... Were looking for a target today for training practice . Would you like to land"? It was more like 40 lbs of trouble, besides violating the Presidential airspace ... Clear example of a guy who should've called flight service for a full briefing before going out flying! Even if it's CAVU. Probably wondering why the airport was so quiet that day.. Yeah and make sure that he was not going to look down the barrell of two or three 50 cal cannon and the polished noses of a couple AIM-9 Sidewinders. Not saying he was high....but, I guess this is one of the many reasons they call it "dope." At least I think the F-16 pilots did a good job screw all the car alarms that went off they did their job. Hang'em high!!!!! DUDE...You can't fly and puff puff at at the same time!!!! Looks to me like we've finally found a good use for these roving TFRs... I guess this was the aircraft.... N8873X http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N8873X MAJOR DAVID W - GROVER BEACH http://registry.faa.gov/aircraftinquiry/NNum_Results.aspx?NNumbertxt=8873X Just look at the flt. track on 2-9-12! Looks like he was high? Lompoc to Long Beach - why didn't they just drive? How long does it take Marine one to fly to ca from DC ? And what does it cost? I don't care about the pot.... Yes, when the president travels his helicopters & motorocade are flown in in advance on military cargo planes. Then he comes later, comfortably, on Air Force One. When elder Bush came to Ft. Campbell, Ky to tour the area they brought the helo in days before by plane. 40 pounds should get the obama cronies back to DC Not the sharpest crayon in the box. Unfortunately, I am certain that this sort of smuggling goes on every day but...this will give Obummer and crew one more stick to beat the aviation world with. He'll use it as another justification for the $100 flight fee. Dear Mr Nobama, ttttthhhhhhhhhhhhp !!!!!! |

Is it possible to straighten my nose and what are the limitations in my case? (photos)
I realize I might not get ideal results by doing a rhynoplasty considering assymetry and imbalances of my face, but is it possible to put my nose in the middle of my face and make the bridge of the nose straight? What are the limitations in my case (how should I adjust my expectations)? Another question: what can be done surgically to address my lip assymetry surgically (I'm not really interested in lip fillers) Thank you
Doctor Answers 8
It seems like the source of your deviation is originates at the dorsum, possibly the bony portion, or more likely the cartilaginous portion. Any hx of trauma? A septoplasty with osteotomies may be necessary to correct.
Web reference: http://www.thomassenplasticsurgery.com
Asja, it is possible to fix your nasal deviation with rhinoplasty surgery. Presuming you have not had previous nasal surgery and are otherwise healthy, there should be no limitations to fixing your deviation. In terms of expectations, healing can vary and depends on a number of factors, but overall you have a very good chance in having your nose be situated in the midline after rhinoplasty.
Lip asymmetry can be addressed with fat grafting. It may also improve with rhinoplasty if your septum is contributing to this appearance.

Yes and fat gratis to lips might help that also. Best to seek ONLY IN PERSON consultations from boarded surgeons...

Everyone has asymmetry of the nose and face and some things can be corrected and others can not. Depending upon your goals options may be available to you. Good luck. The evaluation in person is essential.
As you seem to indicate, asymmetry can be improved, a rhinoplasty by an experienced rhinoplastic surgeon, after an in depth consultation can improve your appearance. Call and set up an appointment.
You're asking about expectations of a procedure to straighten your nose and question the limitations of the procedure; I think you've already answered the question when you say that you may not get the "ideal" result. You may want to enlarge your lips but the pictures do not demonstrate any significant asymmetry. I may change my opinion following an examination.
Based on your photos, you are an excellent candidate for a cosmetic Rhinoplasty. Your nose can be straightened and made more feminine to match your face. Consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to discuss your nose, as well as your lips. You may be a candidate for lip implants, or a minor revision.

It is a sorry state of affairs when government tries to enforce religious belief to a certain religious group. In this case it was the Reformed church of Switzerland. We must not say from this negative experience how God and His moral law have no place in government. We need His influence today more than ever.
"If you would baptize infants in a Christian context why not baptize others against their will such as Jews or Turks."
Conrad Grebel's impact earned him the title "The father of Anabaptists" because of the stand he took for baptizing believers. Today, we look at men such as Grebel and understand that they have been forgotten during the era of the Protestant Reformation. Our heritage as Baptists comes from men like Grebel who refused to be mandated by the state church to baptize infants. They stood for believer's baptism, as we do, and the gathered assembly of believers in the local church. For this cause–may we stand with Grebel. We owe him a tremendous debt of gratitude.
The Gospel Coalition describes itself as "a broadly Reformed network of churches." In plain English, they are Calvinists. Their confessional statement and leadership is thoroughly Calvinistic. Southern Baptists who affiliate with The Gospel Coalition comprise a group within a group, sharing certain traits with Southern Baptists like me, and other traits with Presbyterians and Charismatics whose views I disaffirm.
Baptists today are sort of split concerning our affinity with the Anabaptist. The more Calvinistic Baptists say our origins are with the English Baptist around the early 1600's under John Symth and Thomas Helwys. Officially they were more organized then with less persecution although initially some persecution still existed in England. Others like myself still claim kinship with the orthodox Anabaptist group.

Katy, Pearland football fans make the long trek home, stop at Bucee's after Dallas football sweep
Following the sweep of 4A and 5A UIL football championships, fans from the Houston area made their way south on I-45 to return home.
The caravan of SUVs with Katy and Pearland football stickers made the fan bases pretty easy to figure out, but it was still fun to drive back to my home in Southeast Texas and share the road with some of the fans who helped set the record attendance records at the UIL football state championships.
For what it's worth, Buc-ee's in Madisonville still seems to be the No. 1 truckstop as Pearland maroon and Katy red were both in line for the gas station chain's "world famous bathrooms."

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Excellent add-on! The option to apply/not apply a printing CSS style sheet makes it really unique.
But for me it lacks some functionality to be THE best pre-printing editor:
+ configurable option to the toolbar button which option should be performed when only clicking on it: Print, Print Preview or immediately Edit
+ the possiblility to start the print dialog direct from the editing mode (this button fails for me)
+ as stated by one reviewer before, a de-widthify function as in Aardvark
+ keyboard support as in Aadvark; mouse is often not as quick as a keypress for the functions select/deselect/delete
+ narrow/wider/colorize(?) selection by keyboard strokes as in Aardvark
and finally
+ possibility to remove selected text, not only complete styling elements like this can be done with Nuke Anything Enhanced

Multidimensional poverty analysis: Looking for a middle ground
Widespread agreement that poverty is a multifaceted phenomenon, encompassing deprivations along multiple dimensions, clashes with often vociferous disagreement about how best to measure these deprivations. Drawing on the recent literature, this short note proposes three methodological alternatives to the false dichotomy between scalar indices of multidimensional poverty, on the one hand, and a "dashboard" approach that looks only at marginal distributions, on the other. These alternatives include simple Venn diagrams of the overlap of deprivations across dimensions, multivariate stochastic dominance analysis, and the analysis of copula functions, which capture the extent of interdependency across dimensions. Examples from the literature on both developing and developed countries are provided.

Website Load Time
Website load time is an important factor, because Google is taking the site's loading speed into consideration in determining its ranking. Even though this will not have a big impact, it is still something we (webmasters) should really look into. The reason is pretty simple – the majority of visitors are usually in a rush and no one is fond of waiting half a century before the website finally loads its content or fails to load. At the last check on 2015-04-02, website load time was 0.55. The highest load time is 0.55, the lowest load time is 0.19, the average load time is 0.31.
