snowolf and professor THANKS newbie in park
Ok thanks to Snowolf & Professor & everyone else that posts and helps others
I'm new to the whole scene and have read and watched tons of videos/posts. I went to the park for the 1st time ever and had a blast. I rode my 1st box, and my 1st jump. I tried to use much of the good info that you all have shared.
The exits to these features were very icy and large ruts but over all I did very well. Nothing broke or hurt is a huge plus!! I look forward to continuing my learning and hopefully improving with time and practice. I really want to do a 180 on a medium size jump and my year would be complete, start small like everyone says. Thanks guys! I had a blast with my kids in the park -Slyder |

Light scattering from aggregated noble-metal films
JOSA, Vol. 68, Issue 2, pp. 189-193 (1978)
Acrobat PDF (618 KB)
The spectral and angular distributions of the scattered light from aggregated noble-metal films have been investigated. The films were formed by evaporation on hot glass substrates (300 °C) in order to obtain relatively large and regular size aggregates (200–1000 Å). The scattered light from the aggregated films in general exhibited a peak in the spectral region that was studied (0.3–1.0µm). The experimental spectral and angular measurements have been compared to results calculated from a theory considering the aggregates as spheroidal particles and satisfactory agreement has been obtained. An additional structure in the spectral distribution of the scattered light has been found in the case of relatively large size silver aggregates (> 1000 Å).

Domaine Berthoumieu is owned by Didier Barré, who took over for his father Louis in the mid-eighties. Didier was one of many young winemakers at this time greatly inspired by Alain Brumont of Domaine Bouscasse/Chateau Montus fame, who could be called the founder of modern Madiran. Barré has 24 hectares of vineyard, upon which is planted Tannat, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Fer Servadou (one of the the three regions in the Southwest that plant this grape.) His top red wine is the cuvée Charles de Batz, which was the original name of d'Artignan. The wine is composed of 90% Tannat with 10% Cabernet Sauvignon from vines that are at least 50 years old. The soil in these vineyards is clay and limestone with some round stones at the surface. Very ripe, rich Madiran that takes no prisoners, this wine succeeds in obtaining more fruit than tannin! It displays notes of black fruit (blackcurrant and blackberry) along with just a hint of red fruit. There is a cedar-like creaminess to the oak which is extremely well-integrated. 14% abv.

Happy Valentine's Day! Our hearts beat for you… with about 1.6 Watts.
Posted: February 14, 2015 Filed under: Energy, Random Stuff | Tags: heart-o-meter, hearts, Valentine, valentines day 1 Comment By Tania Ritchie, Valentine's Day 2013Aww. It's Valentine's Day today in many countries around the world, meaning the annual bombardment of hearts is upon us again: sugary-sweet hearts, super-sweet hearts, super-sized hearts and even some super-strange hearts. But the iconic curvy 'love heart' might have originated from a simplistic drawing of the human heart, which long ago was seen as the place in the body where the soul (and, presumably, romance) lived.
Nowadays, thanks to science, we have much less poetic notions about what the heart actually does (although, to compensate, what we know now is much, much more likely to save your life). We all know, for example, that the heart is the powerhouse that keeps your blood circulating.
So, just for fun, we thought that this Valentine's Day it'd be fun to compare the power of the human heart to the power we can get from some of the different technologies we're working at CSIRO.
The power of the heart
We can work out the average power of the heart by multiplying the peak pressure inside the heart (120 mmHg, or 16 kPa) by the rate of blood flow (say about 6 litres per minute, or 0.0001 m3/s). This gives us the magic number we're going to use for the heart's power: 1.6 Watts. Over the course of a day, this adds up to an energy output of 140 kJ (or 33 Cal) each day.
So we created a thing called the Heart-o-meter. It shows the power output of some of our energy technologies from our National Energy Centre in Newcastle, in a unit we're pretty sure we've just pioneered here at CSIRO – equivalent human hearts. Aww. Who said science can't be romantic?
You can see that yesterday the photovoltaic cells in our Virtual Power Station had a power output that equalled, at one point, the total number of people's hearts in Newcastle. That's a lot of love.
Happy Valentine's Day.

5 ways high-tech light bulbs can brighten up your life
Posted: January 15, 2015 Filed under: Energy, Events | Tags: energy, light bulbs 1 CommentBy Simon Hunter
Last week hundreds of technology companies headed to Las Vegas for the biggest nerd-fest of the year – CES 2015 – to tout their wares and show off the latest and greatest gizmos.
From pilotless drones that follow you wherever you go to cars that you can park using a watch, the Jetsons would have felt very much at home at this year's event.
Interestingly though, it was one of the oldest innovations that featured most prominently – the humble light bulb. In their quest to create smarter homes, companies have been finding new ways to integrate colour, connectivity and music into bulbs.
Here we take a look at five new types of lights bulbs that are bringing the sexy back into lighting:
1. Lightscapes
Misfit showed off its Bolt bulb which allows you to create different colour combinations and lightscapes around your home using an app on your phone.
2. Sound
Sony showed off a prototype of its Symphonic Light Speaker which has a built in speaker. It allows you to wirelessly control the bulb and stream music through it.
3. Security
The Sengled Snap Bulb goes one step further. They contain a speaker, microphone and a motion sensor allowing you to stream video to your phone and use the bulb as a security device.
4. Movies
Phillips showcased its Hue bulb which can integrate with movies and gaming to create different lighting around the TV screen.
5. Work, rest and play
Definity Digital has designed a range of bulbs, which they say could help you sleep better or be more alert depending on the time of day.
We're turning on to smart light technology, too. Recently we took a look at how new materials like flexible electronics are influencing the way lights are designed: check out the Plus Pendant, which is both smart and flexible. We're also working on smarter ways to use energy in homes and buildings, including heating, cooling and through apps like Opticool which help to manage energy use in big buildings.
Australia should export more ideas and fewer greenhouse emissions
Posted: December 2, 2014 Filed under: Energy, Environment, News, Tech-know | Tags: emissions, energy, Energy and resources, fossil fuels, natural gas, solar 1 CommentBy Alex Wonhas, Executive Director, Energy and Resources
As climate negotiators meet at the United Nations' Lima summit, which comes hot on the heels of the landmark US-China climate deal, there is a renewed focus on how the world can move to a lower-emissions future.
As a global energy superpower, Australia can and should play a significant role in ensuring that its exports contribute as few greenhouse emissions as possible. Exporting ideas, technologies and solutions can play an important part in achieving this outcome.
One of Australia's great strengths is its vast natural resources. Australia is a global top-three energy exporter; by 2018, it is expected to be the world's largest exporter of liquefied natural gas (LNG), the world's second-largest exporter of coal, and world's third-largest exporter of uranium.
All of these exports drive economic growth and a higher living standard, not only in Australia but also in our customer countries. According to mainstream forecasts, this growth is set to continue.
Given the impact of our exports on global emissions, there is debate over whether Australia's responsibility ends at the harbour gate or extends well beyond.
There are widely diverging responses to this question, ranging from proactive support of exports in the name of economic growth, to calls for an end to fossil fuel exports. Whatever your own position, there is one thing that everyone should be able to agree on: the need to accelerate the development and global deployment of cost-competitive, lower-emission energy technologies.
Developing cost-competitive clean energy technologies is no pipe dream. Australia can be proud of its impressive track record in this field. Take, for instance, solar photovoltaic technologies that have been developed at the University of New South Wales and successfully commercialised in China – an Australian invention now underpinning a significant share of the rapidly growing global solar industry.
Australian ingenuity is a great strength of our nation. Yet when it comes to innovations in the energy sector, we can be bolder. We should stop thinking of ourselves as only a minor contributor to a global effort. We should instead play a role that is commensurate with our status as one of the world's leading exporters of energy.
A prosperous and sustainable future
Based on our own work at CSIRO, I can see no shortage of potential new ideas that could deliver a prosperous and sustainable energy future. Let me give you three examples.
The high levels of air pollution in China, combined with a rising demand for carbon dioxide for enhanced oil recovery, present a significant opportunity to work with China to develop the next generation of cheaper carbon-capture technologies. Australia has been collaborating with China in this area since 2008, working on the establishment of China's first post-combustion carbon-capture pilot project. In 2012, Australia helped to launch a second pilot plant that is currently operating in Jilin province, with the capacity to capture 600 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year.
India is not just focused on buying Australia's coal – it is also interested in Australian technologies such as "SolarGas", which uses hi-tech "mirrors" to turn solar heat, water and natural gas into a high-value feedstock for the chemical industry. After the successful trial of a 250 kilowatt system in Australia, CSIRO is now discussing plans to build a pilot-scale SolarGas plant in India, where there is a large chemical industry and plenty of sunshine.
Finally, a technology called DICE — which stands for Direct Injection Carbon Engine — has the potential to significantly reduce emissions from coal-fired power stations. DICE is a high-efficiency diesel engine powered by a coal slurry – a mixture of finely ground coal with water. It has the potential to cut carbon emissions by 20-35% from black coal and by 35-50% from brown coal, compared with technologies currently used in Australia.
Much greater emissions reductions are possible if biomass is used as a feedstock instead of coal. DICE should also be able to respond quickly to fluctuating power demand, making it well suited to supporting the integration of renewable generators into our electricity grids.
Following successful tests in Australia over the past few years, CSIRO has now partnered with the global diesel engine manufacturer MAN Diesel & Turbo to develop the technology on a commercial scale. The next step will be a commercial-scale demonstration in Japan, supported by Australian coal industry. If everything goes to plan, the technology could be commercially available by the end end of this decade.
Unique challenges
These are just three examples of many. Each technology faces its own unique technical and commercial challenges. Not everything will work, but neither will all of these attempts fail. By focusing on a mix of different technologies and approaches, I have no doubt that we will see several new technologies emerge that will help us not only to meet the growing energy needs of humankind, but also mitigate its negative environmental impacts.
New cost-competitive, low-emission technologies will be vital if Australia wants to continue to export fossil fuels. It is therefore in our interest to continue to collaborate with the world so that we can responsibly use these resources.
Frankly, our responsibility does not stop at the harbour gate.

Energy in a flash – what can we do with lightning?
Posted: October 31, 2014 Filed under: Energy, Random Stuff | Tags: energy, lightning, weather Leave a commentLightning is one of the scariest forms of energy in nature. What Halloween movie isn't complete without a sudden thunderous bolt from the heavens right when the bad guy emerges from the shadows?
But lightning isn't all just theatrics. It also contains a lot of power which, if it could be harnessed, could be of great use. This week's dramatic electrical storms in Melbourne and Adelaide (storm photo gallery, ABC News) got us thinking… if we could capture lightning, what would we do with it?
In the 1931 film Frankenstein, the eponymous scientist used lightning-like bolts of electricity to create a monster. In the 1990's film Back to the Future, Doc used lightning to power his DeLorean to travel in time.
While it is fair to say we're not quite ready to raise the dead or travel in time, using lightning to power our homes – or even a simple appliance like a toaster – could one day be a possibility.
Tall buildings like The Sydney Tower are regularly hit by lightning. According to recent reports, a million volts can charge through the Sydney Tower's metal frame countless times per storm. Depending on which reports you read, there are about 500 megajoules in the average bolt. This could easily power a 1000 watt two-slice toaster for over a year.
Capturing the energy in a lightning bolt has been tried but with limited success. Other ideas have included conducting electricity using rods, or using the energy to heat water which could then be used to generate electricity. This is similar to solar thermal technologies which use the sun to heat water and then generate electricity.
For now, we'd say you'd be mad to try and power your toaster with lightning (unless you like it really burnt); but if we can find an efficient way to capture, store and distribute this energy, then one day it may form a small part of our energy mix.
Learn more about how we're already harnessing nature's power to produce energy with supercritical steam.
Shale gas, coal seam gas… what's the difference?
Posted: October 30, 2014 Filed under: Energy, Environment | Tags: coal seam gas, shale gas 1 CommentBy Tsuey Cham
A few weeks ago we took a look at coal seam gas (CSG) and the hydraulic fracturing ('fraccing') process used in its extraction. You may have also heard of shale gas, another type of natural gas found deep underground.
So what exactly makes them different?
In terms of their gas content they're really quite similar, with both made up predominantly of methane – the type of gas used in homes for cooking and heating.
However, when it comes to extraction and production CSG and shale gas can be quite different. For example, CSG can be found up to about 1000 meters underground, whereas shale gas is found much deeper, usually 1500 to 4000 meters below the surface.
In Australia, hydraulic fracturing – a technique that increases the rate of gas flow for extraction – is used in CSG production 20-40% of the time, whereas in shale gas production it's used every time.
Another interesting difference is that the process used to extract CSG produces more water than it uses – so there are large quantities of water produced as a by-product. Conversely, for shale gas, the extraction process uses more water than it produces.
Watch our latest short animation to find out more about shale gas, how it's extracted and some of the potential environmental challenges involved in its production:

Four ways to lose weight and feel 'electric' this summer
Posted: October 24, 2014 Filed under: Energy, News, Random Stuff, Tech-know, Things we like | Tags: electricity, smart technology, soccket 2 CommentsAs the mercury rises and our focus turns to hitting the gym and shedding those cuddly winter kilos, we thought we'd take a look at a few ways we could be making our workouts really count.
While the idea of working up a sweat and electricity might sound like a recipe for disaster, you'd be surprised how people and businesses are using sport and exercise to create electricity – with a conscience.
Giving light to rural communities
A company in the US has created a soccer balled called Soccket which can generate three hours of light with just thirty minutes of play. The ball is being used in rural off-grid areas of Mexico. Soccket stores the kinetic energy built up while you play using a pendulum-like mechanism.
Creating greener stadiums
At the Homes Stadium in Kobe City, Japan, the floorplan has been designed to harness vibrations made by cheering fans to create electricity. The electricity generates is fed back into the stadium's power supply. The more fans cheer the less power the stadium needs to take from the 'grid'.
Building safe places for kids to play
Soccer superhero Pele recently teamed up with global energy company Shell to launch a new type of pitch in a Rio. It is made from tiles which capture kinetic energy created by the movement of the players. The light is being used to power the pitch at night, resulting in a safe and secure community space.
Keeping your gym green
A gym in the UK made history by becoming the first self-powered gym using the energy of bikes, cross trainers and 'vario' machines to power its lights. Each machine feeds around 100w per hour back into the gym's power supply. Treadmills also generate enough energy to power their own information screens.
And for those of us who may not be able to book a round the world trip purely for exercise purposes, why not try signing up for our new Total Wellbeing Diet online trial? Visit the website for more information and to sign up.
Tell me s'more: Five alternate ways to charge your mobile phone
Posted: October 17, 2014 Filed under: Energy, News, Tech-know | Tags: battery, energy, iPhone Leave a commentIn 1973 when Motorola engineer Martin Cooper created the first mobile phone prototype it weighed around 1.1 kilos (iPhone 6 weighs 129 grams) and had enough power for 20 minutes of talk time before requiring a ten-hour recharge. But back in the day that wasn't an issue because most people weren't strong enough to keep the brick-like handset hoisted to their ear for much longer.
Today, the problem we face is not developing forearms of steel to handle our phones, but how to keep them powered up with so many apps ticking away in the background. It turns out it is easier than you think. Forgotten your charger? Never fear. Chuck on a t-shirt, fire up the camp stove or grab your suitcase.
Roast some marshmallows
Ahhh, there's nothing quite like the great outdoors. The hours of serenity provide the perfect time for quiet reflection as you feel yourself become at one with nature. But wouldn't it be better if you're phone wasn't dead and you could share your favourite s'more recipes on Facebook? Now you can, thanks to a camping stove that converts heat from the flames into electricity.
Turn up the volume
A few years ago music lovers at the Glastonbury festival in the UK got to try out a new t-shirt that powered up their mobile phones while they pulled their moves. Made of a special material called piezoelectric film, the t-shirt turns vibrations from the music into an electrical charge.
Tee off like Tiger
Finally, golfers can be rewarded for playing poorly. Fitted to the handgrip of the club, the smart device harnesses the kinetic energy generated by the golfer repeatedly swinging the club. Depending on how good your game is, you could generate up to two hours of charge.
Run like Forrest
Keeping on the kinetic energy theme, so-called green gyms are using the energy burnt off by gym users to generate electricity. One gym in Berlin has installed special plug-ins to the machines that allow people to charge their phones with the energy they produce while working out.
Pack your suitcase
Designer Jung Inyoung has come up with the concept of a rolling suitcase that provides power to devices using kinetic energy. There are two gears on the bag's wheels that collect energy as you stroll around the airport. You can plug your phone into the suitcase to charge it.
We have been working on new battery technologies for a number of years, including flexible batteries which can be integrated into fabrics and clothing. Read more about our wearable electronics work.

Among those is a brand new exploit kit that, for now, concentrates only on exploiting Java flaws. The vulnerabilities in questions are CVE-2012-1723 and CVE-2013-0431, but more exploits are to be added soon, say its creators.
Cyber crooks can rent the kit for 24 hours, a week or a month, paying respectively $40, $150 and $450 for the service. But, is it worth it?
The infection rate for a campaign using this kit is 9.5 percent, which is considerably lower than that promised by sellers of more popular - and versatile - exploit kits.
In terms of innovation, there's not much to note.
"For the time being, customers can choose whether they want to manually rotate the client-side exploits serving domains/IPs, or whether theyd want the cybercriminals selling the kit to do it for them as a managed service. Customers of the exploit kit will also receive notifications one their domains start getting detected by security vendors, through the Domain Check service," says Danchev.
"Naturally, the cybercriminals behind the exploit kit are outsourcing the entire process instead of building the capability in-house. Also, for the time being, the exploit kit can only be rented on bullet proof servers operated by the cybercriminals pitching it, but if customers want to use it on their own servers, they would have to personally request this from the vendor."
He doubts that the kit's developers will have much success, especially because Java vulnerabilities have lately been big news and users - both home and enterprise ones - have been repeatedly advised to disable Java for the time being.

Claims(5) 1. A fine magnetically shielded conductor wire consisting of a conductive copper core and a magnetically soft alloy metallic sheath metallurgically secured to said conductive core, said sheath consisting essentially of about 2 to about 5 percent by weight molybdenum, about 15 to about 23 percent by weight iron and about 75 to about 85 percent by weight nickel.
2. A fine magnetically shielded conductor wire according to claim 1 wherein said core wire has a conductivity greater than about 90 percent I.A.C.S. and said sheath has a conductivity less than about 3 percent I.A.C.S.
3. A fine magnetically shielded conductor wire according to claim 2 wherein said sheath has a substantially uniform thickness and comprises from about 5 to about 40 percent of the total cross-sectional area of the shielded conductor wire.
4. A fine magnetically shielded conductor wire according to claim 3 comprising about 4 percent molybdenum, about 17 percent iron, and about 79 percent nickel.
5. A fine magnetically shielded conductor wire according to claim 4 having a diameter of from about 0.005 inch to about 0.032 inch.
Description The present invention relates to a magnetically shielded conductor for use in applications where electromagnetic interference between closely spaced conductors cannot be tolerated. The prior art has concentrated on obtaining effectively shielded conductors by surrounding the primary conductor with a secondary grounded conductor while separating the two conductors by a dielectric or insulating material. Coaxial cables are typical examples of this construction. The construction of a coaxial cable requires the manufacture of two separate conductors and the separating material and final assembly of the components at or near finish size. Each connection requires two connectors or a connector of a specialized design. U.S. Pat. No. 3,451,793 to Matsushita et al discloses a magnetic thin film wire having at least one thin film of an iron-nickel alloy of a compositional ratio of 50 percent of iron and 50 percent of nickel and at least one thin film of an iron nickel alloy of a compositional ratio of 21 percent of iron and 79 percent of nickel which are deposited in laminate arrangement. The wire is disclosed as being not subject to magnetostriction and having almost zero temperature coefficient. U.S. Pat. No. 3,264,100 to Ichinose et al relates to soft magnetic materials of the nickel iron alloy type for use as magnetic cores in magnetic amplifiers and as memory elements. The use of 4-79 Moly Permalloy is disclosed therein. It is an object of the present invention to provide a thin wire having shielding properties for eliminating interference between closely spaced conductors. Other and further objects will become apparent from reading the following description. In accordance with the principles of the present invention, there is provided a fine magnetically shielded conductor wire comprising a conductor core wire and a metallic sheath metallurgically secured to said conductor core wire, said sheath comprising a magnetically soft alloy comprising about 75 to 85 percent nickel and about 15 to 25 percent iron. The magnetically shielded conductor wire of the present invention comprises a conductive core wire with a metallic sheath. The core preferably has an electrical conductivity that is greater than about 90 percent of the electrical conductivity value for pure copper. The aforementioned value of electrical conductivity is in reference to those known in the art as the International Annealed Copper Standards (IACS) wherein pure copper is rated as possessing 100 percent conductivity. More specifically, pure copper in accordance with the above standards is rated at 10.371 ohms circular mills/ft. When further describing the present invention, the defined percentages for conductivity will be in relation to the above value. Typical core materials are silver and copper. The core is preferably electrically pure copper which is substantially oxygen free. The metallic sheath is metallurgically secured to the conductive core wire. The sheath is of substantial uniform thickness and surrounds or covers the core conductor. The shielding material or sheath comprises a magnetically soft alloy which does not retain magnetism after it is subjected to an applied magnetic field. The alloy possesses high permeability which permits the magnetic lines of force to be contained within the material. For a suitable shielding effect to be achieved, the sheath should be sufficiently thick in relation to the core. Typically the sheath comprises from about 5 to about 40 percent of the total cross-sectional area of the shielded conductor wire. The sheath preferably has a low conductivity of about less than 3 percent I.A.C.S. The greater portion of a current applied to such a shielded wire will flow through the highly conductive core in preference to the sheath and the effect of the electromagnetic field created by the current flow is minimized by the permeable magnetically soft alloy surrounding the core. Typically sheath alloys comprise about 75 to 85 percent nickel and about 15 to 25 percent iron. Typical sheath alloys are 78-Permalloy comprising 78 percent nickel with the remaining portion iron and Mu Metal comprising 75 percent nickel, 18 percent iron, 2 percent chromium and 5 percent copper. Preferably the sheath comprises about 2 to about 5 percent molybdenum, about 15 to about 23 percent iron and from about 75 to about 85 percent nickel by weight. Even more preferably, the sheath comprises 4-79 Moly Permalloy which comprises about 4 percent molybdenum, about 79 percent nickel and the remainder comprising iron. 4-79 Permalloy typically contains 0.3 percent manganess and may contain other impurities. Except for the impurities and other minor ingredients such as manganese, the remainder comprises about 17 percent by weight iron. Super malloy which comprises about 79 percent nickel, 15 percent iron, 5 percent molybdenum and remainder impurities is also a more preferred sheath material. The wire of the present invention is ideally suited for electrical wires in applications requiring very fine or thin wire of a diameter of from about 0.005 inch (0.127 mm) to about 0.032 inch (0.813 mm). The wire has particular application for use with miniaturized circuits where large amounts of thin wire are in close proximity to provide interconnection between the elements of the circuit board by a wire wrapping process. The preferred method of making the metallurgically bonded shielded conductor wire of the present invention is by conventional wire drawing techniques. A rod of the electrically conductive core material, preferably copper, is covered with a close fitting sleeve of the sheath material. The composite rod is then reduced by known wire drawing techniques to the desired wire size. These techniques which are well known in the prior art include drawing the wire through a series of proggressively smaller dyes. The use of conventional methods results in the sheath being metallurgically bonded to the core conductor. All percentage composition figures referred to hereinbefore are by weight percent. While there have been described various embodiments of the present invention, the methods and particular described structure are not intended to be understood as limiting the scope of the invention.

TP 3S 2100 fits the battery bay just fine...The rudder pushrod exit needed enlarging just slightly for smooth operation. A couple of seconds of work with a hobby knife and the problem was fixed. I am not ecstatic about the hardware either but it plainly shows it on the box and for the most part works for me. GP is not the only manufacturer around to include less than stellar hardware. I have not had problems with the servo arms, if that is what you were referring to provided you are using name brand servos. I am not sure whether they will fit other brands and generics. The construction on mine was very well done. Hope your luck improves.

Why are you arguing with people that agree with you and/or are providing helpful tips? I was trying to inform you of a 2100mah brand of battery that appears to fit just fine; I don't know what brand you tried. If the thickness of the battery is the problem then I doubt that any 3 cell battery would fit. I have never put together any plane, from any manufacture, that was fool proof and didn't need some kind of mod. I do agree that this one is below the current standards set by companies like Extreme Flight, Hyperion and 3D Hobby Shop though. Good luck. |

Dont try to do agresive manuvers with the GP ep yak or reactor that crazy wing joinging system will give out I have lost 2 reactors and 1 yak from the wing joiners breaking and the wings comming off in flight. the fist 2 planes broke within a week. I sent them back to GP and they finaly after having them for a few weeks, replaced them. and the 3rd one I reinforced it/ beefed it up like crazy and got about 50 flights on it and doing a wall (SNAP!) off went the right wing and down went the plane. The reactor is a great flying plane but the quality of GP planes I have owned really sucks weh compared to other electric arf planes. Unless they make some changes on the quality and customer service I will stick with the stuff Horizon Hobby disributes. Also Horizon has Great customer service

Kids under 6 may not be ready to sleep over at a friend's house, though they may be OK staying at a relative's house. By age 8, many kids have slept over at a friend's house. But even kids older than 8 might feel worried about sleeping over if they get homesick, so it's OK to say no to a sleepover if you don't feel ready just yet.
If you have a problem with bedwetting, a sleepover also might worry you. If you want to go, talk to your mom or dad about how to handle your concerns. Your doctor could be helpful if the issue is bedwetting.

Uterine Fibroids
(Fibroids; Leiomyoma; Myoma; Fibromyoma)
Fibroids are benign (noncancerous) growths in the wall of the uterus. The uterus is the organ where a fetus grows during pregnancy.Fibroids are common. They may be very small or they could grow to eight or more inches in diameter. Most fibroids remain inside the uterus. Sometimes, they may stick out and affect nearby organs. It is common for there to be more than one fibroid.Uterine Fibroid |
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc. |
The cause of fibroids is unknown.Fibroid growth is stimulated by female reproductive hormones. As a result:- Fibroids grow larger during pregnancy then shrink after childbirth.
- Fibroids become less of a problem after menopause . However, symptoms may return with hormone replacement therapy (HRT) .
Risk Factors
African American women are at increased risk. Other factors that affect your risk of fibroids include:- Risk increases with age until menopause
- Family history
There many not be any symptoms. Or, symptoms may be mild or severe. This depends on the size and location of the growths.Symptoms may include:- Pelvic pain or pressure
- Heavy menstrual bleeding
- Clots in menstrual flow
- Long periods
- Bleeding between periods
- Increased cramping during periods
- Pain during sex
- Frequent need to urinate
- Constipation
- Bloating
- Abdominal swelling
- Low back or leg pain
- Infertility by blocking the fallopian tubes
- Miscarriage
Most fibroids are found during routine pelvic exams.Images may be taken of your bodily structures. This can be done with:- Abdominal ultrasound
- Transvaginal ultrasound
- CT scan or MRI scan
- Hysteroscopy
Most women with fibroids do not have symptoms and do not need treatment. Your doctor may recommend monitoring any changes on a regular basis. Treatment may be done later if needed.Treatments include:Pain Medication
Your doctor may advise:- Over-the-counter pain relievers to ease mild symptoms
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to reduce inflammation and relieve cramping
- Prescription pain medication—If pain cannot be managed with medications above
- Tranexamic acid to control bleeding symptoms
Hormonal Therapy
Hormone medications may be an option if you are not trying to become pregnant. These drugs can shrink fibroids, reduce abnormal bleeding, and lessen pain. However, fibroids can return after you stop taking the drugs. These drugs may be used to make fibroids smaller just before surgery.Procedures
Surgery may be considered if:- The uterus becomes extremely large
- The fibroids are interfering with fertility
- Symptoms are severe
- Myomectomy —An incision is made in the abdomen. The fibroids are removed from the uterus.
- Hysterectomy —The entire uterus is removed. You will be unable to have children if you have this surgery.
- Uterine fibroid embolization—This is a minimally invasive procedure. It blocks blood flow to the fibroids. This will make the fibroids shrink.
- Focused ultrasound therapy—Energy is centered on the fibroid to destroy it. This procedure may not be ideal for patients who are overweight, have very large fibroids, or have extensive scars from prior abdominal surgeries.
There are no guidelines for preventing fibroids.RESOURCES
