They instead use tendon material from the cadaver, such as the Achille's tendon or part of their patellar tendon as I believe tendons tend to be stronger than ligaments. permalinkparent[–]Bearsshitniggachill 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (0 children)sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted onWoah let me get this straight. They take other tendons and then rebuild his knee with it? They cab do that? I thought they just let it heal naturally (well maybe some medicine help but mostly naturally).

Unweapon - definition of unweapon by The Free Dictionary

Dictionary, Encyclopedia and Thesaurus - The Free Dictionary 12,041,842,514 visitors served
(ʌnˈwɛpən)
to remove weapons from; disarm
In 1610, John Smyth and his congregation of baptized believers in Holland affirmed their conviction that, in order to follow Jesus' example of an "unarmed and unweaponed life," Christians should not hold any position of civil authority that might require them to use the coercive power of the sword.
So, can a Baptist who consistently seeks to follow the "unarmed and unweaponed example of Jesus be president.
Hussein has vowed to remain, but already out are the UNweapons inspectors who left Iraq this morning following orders from UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan.
48 HOURS TO QUIT; Bush tells Saddam to leave Iraq by 1am on Thursday or face war The Voice of South Wales
It also recalls that council decided on November 8 'that false statements or omissions' in its 12,000-page declaration to UNweapons inspectors 'and failure by Iraq at any time to comply with, and co-operate fully in the implementation of that resolution, would constitute a further material breach.'

PUMA.Creative and BRITDOC Foundation
The second annual PUMA.Creative Impact Award, which honours the documentary films creating the most significant impact in the world today, comes with a cash prize of 50,000 euros which acknowledges the film's makers and also helps the continuation of the film's campaigning work.
"This award is part of PUMA's ongoing commitment at the intersection of film and activism, and is in line with our mission to contribute to a better world," said Mark Coetzee, Programme Director, PUMAVision and Chief Curator, PUMA.Creative, "a world that is safer, more peaceful, and more creative than the one we know today."
In 2011 the Award went to the team behind The End of the Line, an environmental documentary on the overfishing of the world's oceans. That year the jury also awarded a special Jury Commendation-with a 25,000 euro prize-to the makers of Burma VJ, about the 2009 Burmese uprising and the video journalists who risked their life to report on it.
The Call for Entries for the 2012 PUMA.Creative Impact Award is now open. Submissions close on May 11, 2012. Anyone can put a film forward from any country-filmmakers, distributors, film festivals, partner organisations including NGOs and Foundations, film critics and journalists. Films can be put forward any time up to three years after release.
The 2012 PUMA.Creative Impact Award Jury represents the worlds of film, the arts, academia, social change and journalism.

BACKGROUND The disclosure relates to encryption/decryption methods, and more particularly to encryption/decryption methods for a memory device.
For optimizing peripheral add-on cards, control chips of such cards typically require that dedicated drivers or applications run properly under operating systems of host computers. It is also noted that recently integrated circuit (IC) design has a tendency towards multi-function and System-On-Chip (SOC) implementation to fulfill various client requirements.
Accordingly, the control chips of peripheral add-on cards are generally provided with a non-volatile memory interface to access customized code and information in a non-volatile memory under control of the dedicated drivers or applications. As a result, peripheral add-on card vendors may differentiate their products for a variety of target markets by different programming and definition.
Nevertheless, traditional ways lack a secure mechanism to read/write non-volatile memories. Because there is no encryption mechanism, critical data and codes in the non-volatile memory are vulnerable to reverse engineering and illegal copy. If unauthorized access to such valuable information has occurred, data stored in the peripheral add-on card is easily available to unauthorized users.
SUMMARY Encryption/decryption methods and devices for a memory device are provided. An embodiment of an encryption/decryption method comprises obtaining a specific code from a memory device, encrypting the specific code and first data for obtaining encrypted data during a write cycle, and writing the encrypted data to the memory device according to an access address, wherein the memory device comprises the specific code and the encrypted data.
An embodiment of an encryption/decryption device comprises a memory device comprising a specific code, and a processor coupled to the memory device. The processor encrypts the specific code and first data for obtaining encrypted data and storing the encrypted data to the memory device according to an access address during a write cycle.
FIG. 1 is a flowchart of an encryption method according to an embodiment of the invention;
FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a decryption method according to an embodiment of the invention;
FIG. 3 shows an encryption circuit according to an embodiment of the invention; and
FIG. 4 shows a decryption circuit according to an embodiment of the invention.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION FIG. 1 is a flowchart of an encryption method according to an embodiment of the invention. First, to store data in a memory device during a write cycle, a specific code is obtained from the memory device in step 110. Before the memory device leaves the factory, a manufacturer stores a specific code therein. The specific code can be a serial number of the memory device or the date of production. Memory devices from different manufacturers may have different specific code. Additionally, different memory devices manufactured at the same time also have different serial numbers. The bit length of the specific code can be any length, such as 32 bits, 64 bits, 128 bits, or 256 bits.
To increase encryption level, the specific code is transformed into a first key value in step 120. For example, a specific code of 256 bits is transformed into a first key value of 32 bits by a transformation program. The encryption level increases with difference between the specific code and the first key value bit counts.
Next, original data, the first key value, and an access address are encrypted in step 130. Embodiments of the invention can utilize any encryption to encrypt the original data, the first key value, and the access address for generating encrypted data. Since different memory devices have different specific code, their encrypted data is different. Thus, different encrypted data is generated for the same original data to be stored in the same address of different memory devices, so the encryption level increases.
Since the access address and the original data are simultaneously encrypted, different encrypted data related to the same original data is generated by different access addresses after encryption. For example, as original data 00 is respectively stored to access addresses 0000H�0005H, the original data 00 can be transformed to 00�05 and stored in the access addresses 0000H�0005H after the encryption, so the encryption level increases. In another embodiment, the invention can only encrypt the first key value and the original data such that the same encrypted data is generated when the same original data is encrypted.
The encrypted data is stored in the memory device according to the access address in step 140. Thus, the specific code and the encrypted data are stored in the memory device. Since the stored data in the memory device is encrypted, the security of the original data is increased.
FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a decryption method according to an embodiment of the invention. In a read cycle, the encrypted data stored in the memory device is read according to the access address in step 210. Since the encrypted data stored in the memory device has been encrypted, the encrypted data needs to decrypt to obtain the original data.
Next, the encrypted data, a second key value, and an access address are decrypted in step 220. Since the original data, the first key value, and the access address are encrypted in step 130, the encrypted data, the second key value, and the access address are simultaneously decrypted to obtain the original data. In an embodiment, the first key value equals the second key value.
A decryption utilized in the decryption method needs to match an encryption utilized in the encryption method, since data operations are complementary. For example, the decryption does not need to decrypt with the access address when the access address is not encrypted during the encryption.
After the encrypted data stored in the memory device is decrypted, the original data can be obtained in step 230.
FIG. 3 shows an encryption circuit according to an embodiment of the invention. In a write cycle, a processor 34 encrypts an original data to obtain encrypted data stored in a memory device 32 to ensure security of the original data. The memory device 32 can be a flash read only memory (Flash ROM) or other ROM. The processor 34 comprises a transformation unit 342, an operating unit 344, and a controller 346. The transformation unit 342 transforms a specific code DI stored in the memory device 32 to a first key value KEY1. In an embodiment, the transformation unit 342 transforms the bit length from 256 bits into 32 bits.
As difference in bit count between the specific code DI and the first key value KEY1 increases, encryption level does commensurately. The transformation unit 342 can be omitted.
The controller 346 outputs an original data DS and access address AD to the operating unit 344. The processor 34, to store data in the memory device 32, directs the operating unit 344 to perform encryption. The method for encrypting operation according to the invention is not restricted. The first key value KEY1, the original data DS, and the access address AD are encrypted by the operating unit 344 to generate encrypted data DE. The operating unit 344 stores the encrypted data DE in the memory device 32 according to the access address AD. Thus, the memory device 32 comprises the specific code DI and the encrypted data DE.
Additionally, to increase encryption level, the encryption performed by the operating unit 344 encrypts with the access address. In another embodiment, the encryption of access address can be omitted. As an example, encryption with the access address, as the same original-data is to be stored in the memory device 32 at different access addresses, the different encrypted data will be generated after encryption.
FIG. 4 shows a decryption circuit according to an embodiment of the invention. The circuit in FIG. 4 is similar to the circuit in FIG. 3. The operating unit 344 in FIG. 4 performs decryption to read the encrypted data stored in the memory device 32 in a read cycle.
The transformation unit 342 transforms the specific code DI stored in the memory device 32 to a second key value KEY2 that equals the first key value KEY1. The operating unit 344 reads the encrypted data DE from the memory device 32 according to the access address AD provided from the controller 346. The encryption encrypted with the access address AD shown in FIG. 3, so the second key value KEY2, the access address AD, and encrypted data DE are decrypted by the operating unit 344 to obtain the original data DS. The controller 346 performs other operations according to the original data DS.
Advantages of embodiments according to the invention are summarized in the following. Data stored in the memory device is encrypted, so it prevents unauthorized access. If different key values with the same original data are encrypted, the encrypted data is different, such that memory devices with different specific code store different encrypted data. Since the encryption according to the embodiment of the invention encrypts with the access address, when the same original data is stored in different access addresses, the encrypted data stored in different access addresses are different for increased encryption level.

Didn't work. Had to return.
by cosswing 23 Jan, 2017 Top favourable review
Whilst the machine is very easy to handle, and use for the purpose it is intend. We have found that the emptying process could be a little less hands on. Whilst we have been using it we have hand to resort to getting a long handled something, ie, handle of wooden spoon, handle if carving fork, etc. to put into the dust collecting area when you have dropped the flap. This is because when you drop the flop only a little comes out, to fully empty it you have to get hands on with your chosen tool, which gets a bit messy for a moment. You push your tool into the canister and guide the collected dust to the opening, and out into the dustbin - this can take a few go's before the canister is properly empty. Overall, it is worth having this product. We just wish it wasn't so hands on to empty.
by mrp. 29 Jul, 2016 Top critical review
Would have been nice if it had been cleaned
Don't be under any illusion, this is a used product. Mine came complete with dust in the clear bin, a large scrape down one of the attachments and unspeakable crust embedded in another. I'm not sure what Dyson do when refurbishing products but I'm guessing it's not that much, a quick dust, repackaging and out the door. That said it works well and I don't regret my purchase. Very handy to have around for those quick little cleaning jobs. My house has never been cleaner. Just remember, even though it's from Dyson you are buying a used, second hand item. If I'd remembered that I'd probably have been happier.
by wifwer 07 Dec, 2017
Arrived next day, as brand new. Much better than I thought it could be. Lightweight, no wires, so easy to quickly clean up crumbs and bits. Nothing short of wonderful to clean stairs using just hand held part with special head. GREAT!
by clarky0909 06 Dec, 2017
So easy, so poweful
Amazing suction power from something so small and light. Easy to empty. Attachments cover all bases - hard floor fluffy head which picks everything up, carpet brush head, mini motor head for handheld car/stair mode, and crevice tools for everywhere else. Very happy. Battery life hasn’t been an issue at all and I live in a 2 bed house. Highly recommend
by mardeaki-6 29 Aug, 2017
Ordered it and it arrived on time. Does what it's meant to do , not had any problems using it so far ... do notice if you use it on max power it runs out quite quick mind.
