Rotary drill bits are commonly used for drilling bore holes or wells in earth formations. One type of rotary drill bit is the fixed-cutter bit (often referred to as a �drag� bit), which typically includes a plurality of cutting elements secured to a face region of a bit body. The drill bit is attached to a drill string including tubular pipe and component segments coupled end-to-end between the drill bit and other drilling equipment at the surface. Equipment such as a rotary table or top drive may be used for rotating the drill string and the drill bit within the bore hole. Alternatively, the drill bit may be coupled to the drive shaft of a down-hole motor, which then may be used to rotate the drill bit, alone or in combination with rotation of the drill string from the surface.
Various embodiments of the present invention are directed toward embodiments of earth-boring tools or drill bits comprising a bit body including threads configured to fixedly attach the bit body to a shank. FIG. 1 illustrates a drill bit 100 in the form of a fixed cutter or so-called �drag� bit, according to at least some embodiments of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, drill bit 100 includes a bit body 110 having a face 120 at a leading longitudinal end thereof and generally radially extending blades 130, forming fluid courses 140 therebetween. Bit body 110 may comprise a particle-matrix composite material, as well as a metal or metal alloy, such as steel, as are well known in the art.
Blades 130 may also include pockets 150, which may be configured to receive cutting elements 160, for instance, superabrasive cutting elements in the form of polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) cutting elements. Generally, such a PDC cutting element may comprise a superabrasive region that is bonded to a substrate. Rotary drag bits employing PDC cutting elements have been employed for several decades. PDC cutting elements are typically comprised of a disc-shaped diamond �table� formed on and bonded under a high-pressure and high-temperature (HPHT) process to a supporting substrate such as cemented tungsten carbide (WC), although other configurations are known. Drill bits carrying PDC cutting elements, which, for example, may be brazed into pockets in the bit face, pockets in blades extending from the face, or mounted to studs inserted into the bit body, are known in the art. It is also contemplated that cutting elements 160 may comprise, by way of example and not limitation, suitably mounted and exposed natural diamonds, thermally stable polycrystalline diamond compacts, cubic boron nitride compacts, or diamond grit-impregnated segments or integral portions of the bit body, as known in the art and as may be selected in consideration of the subterranean formation or formations to be drilled.
Each of blades 130 may also include a gage region 170 which is configured to define the outermost radius of the drill bit 100 and, thus the radius of the wall surface of a bore hole drilled thereby. Gage regions 170 comprise longitudinally upward (as the drill bit 100 is oriented during use) extensions of blades 130, extending from the face 120 and may have wear-resistant inserts or coatings, such as cutting elements in the form of gage trimmers of natural or synthetic diamond, hardfacing material, or sintered tungsten carbide on radially outer surfaces thereof as known in the art to inhibit excessive wear thereto.
The bit body 110 of drill bit 100 further includes a shank connector 180 at a trailing end thereof, longitudinally opposite from the face 120. The shank connector 180 comprises threads configured to be mated and at least substantially bound to a distal connector 210 of a shank 190. The shank 190 may comprise a proximal connector 200 at one longitudinal end thereof having an American Petroleum Institute (API) thread connection for attaching the shank 190 to a drill string (not shown). At an opposing longitudinal end of the shank 190 is a distal connector 210 comprising a set of threads configured to mate with the threads on the shank connector 180 of the bit body 110. Although the shank connector 180 is illustrated in FIG. 1 as being configured as a male connector and distal connector 210 as a female connector, such a configuration is not intended to be limiting. Instead, shank connector 180 may be configured as either a male or female connector with distal connector 210 of the shank 190 being properly configured to mate with the shank connector 180.
In still other embodiments, the center of the male threads may be offset from the center of the female threads. In such embodiments, the male and female threads are non-concentric or not axially aligned. By way of example and not limitation, in some embodiments, the centers of the male and female threads may be offset a distance between about 0.005 inch (0.127 mm) and 0.100 inch (2.54 mm). In some non-limiting embodiments, the centers of the male and female threads may be offset a distance between about 0.010 inch (0.254 mm) and 0.020 inch (0.508 mm). Generally, a smaller offset may be more applicable for harder materials while a larger offset may be employed for softer, more malleable materials.
Those skilled in the art will recognize that there may be additional thread combinations between the shank connector 180 and the distal connector 210 forming an interference fit exhibiting the galling necessary to at least substantially retain or affix the shank connector 180 and distal connector 210 together.
In at least some embodiments, the body locking threads 260 and the shank locking threads 230 may be configured to not bind initially. In such embodiments, the portions of the body locking threads 260 and the shank locking threads 230 which initially engage may be configured to not bind, similar to the body alignment threads 250 and the shank alignment threads 220. As the bit body 110 and shank 190 are screwed together, the body locking threads 260 and shank locking threads 230 may be configured to bind. The position in which the body locking threads 260 and shank locking threads 230 begin to bind may be configured so that the bit body 110 and shank 190 may mate at interface 300, or at least substantially mate in some embodiments employing one or more gaskets 290 (FIGS. 4-6), as described below. Thus, the binding of the body locking threads 260 and shank locking threads 230 may occur near the last or final rotations of the bit body 110 and the shank 190 as the two are screwed together.
As shown in FIG. 2, the body and shank alignment threads 250, 220, respectively, have a smaller diameter than the body and shank locking threads 260, 230, respectively. However, in other embodiments, as illustrated in FIG. 3, the respective body and shank alignment threads 250, 220 may comprise at least substantially the same diameter as the respective body and shank locking threads 260, 230. By way of example and not limitation, in some embodiments, the body alignment threads 250 and the body locking threads 260 may comprise the same thread configuration and may have substantially the same nominal diameter (inner diameter for a female configuration, outer diameter for a male configuration). The shank alignment threads 220 may be configured to mate with the body alignment threads 250 and the body locking threads 260 with minimal binding, much like conventional alignment threads. The shank locking threads 230, however, are configured to at least substantially bind with the body locking threads 260 as described above with reference to FIG. 1.
Additional embodiments of the present invention may include one or more gaskets 290 positioned and configured to seal at least a portion of the interface 300, also referred to herein as a �mating surface,� between the bit body 110 and the shank 190 from drilling fluid and other materials. FIGS. 4-6 illustrate various embodiments of gasket configurations according to some embodiments of the present invention. In some embodiments, a gasket 290 may be positioned at the interface 300 located adjacent an exterior wall of the drill bit 100, at the interface 300 located adjacent an interior wall of the drill bit 100, or both. In some embodiments, the gasket 290 may be positioned in a grooved region, such as annular groove 310, positioned in an interface surface of the bit body 110 (see FIG. 5), an interface surface of the shank 190, or both (see FIG. 6).
In some embodiments, the gasket 290 may comprise a compliant material capable of deforming, such as rubber or nylon. In such embodiments, the gasket 290 may comprise a conventional O-ring positioned at the interface 300, including within the annular groove 310, when present. In other embodiments, the gasket 290 may comprise a metal material having a low melting point. By way of example and not limitation, the metal material may comprise a solder or other metal having a melting point below about 640� F. (about 338� C.).
The shank 190 may be formed from a metal or metal alloy, such as steel. Some embodiments may further comprise forming a set of threads on the proximal connector 200 as well as the distal connector 210. The threads on the proximal connector 200 may be formed to comprise an API thread connection for attaching the shank 190 to a drill string. The threads on both the proximal connector 200 and the distal connector 210 may be formed according to conventional methods, including, but not limited to, machining, rolling, casting and grinding.
The bit body 110 may be formed of a material such as a metal or metal alloy, such as steel, or a particle-matrix composite material. The threads on the shank connector 180 of the bit body 110 may be formed by machining, rolling, casting, grinding, or any other conventional means. In embodiments where the bit body 110 is formed of a particle-matrix composite material, the bit body 110 may be formed by conventional infiltration methods (in which hard particles (e.g., tungsten carbide) are infiltrated by a molten liquid metal matrix material (e.g., a copper based alloy) within a refractory mold), as well as by newer methods generally involving pressing a powder mixture to form a green powder compact, and sintering the green powder compact to form a bit body 110. The green powder compact may be machined as necessary or desired, prior to sintering using conventional machining techniques like those used to form steel bodies or steel plate structures. Indeed, in some embodiments, the threads on the shank connector 180 may be formed with the bit body 110 in a green powder compact state, or in a partially sintered brown body state. Furthermore, additional machining processes may be performed after sintering the green powder compact to the partially sintered brown state, or after sintering the green powder compact to a desired final density.
In some embodiments, forming the bit body 110 with threads configured to at least partially bind with the set of threads on the distal connector 210 may comprise disposing a particulate material between the threads on the shank connector 180 and the set of threads on the distal connector 210. The particulate material may be disposed on the set of threads on the shank connector 180, the distal connector 210, or both prior to screwing them together. The particulate material may be disposed on threads configured to gall with each other as well as threads configured to be free from any substantial galling.
Some embodiments include disposing a gasket 290 at the interface 300 between the bit body 110 and the shank 190. In embodiments which comprise an annular groove 310, the gasket 290 may be disposed at least partially within the annular groove 310. In embodiments in which the gasket 290 comprises a compliant material, the gasket 290 may be depressed at least partially within the annular groove 310 and at least substantially locked into place.
In embodiments in which the gasket 290 comprises a metal having a low melting point, the material comprising the gasket 290 may be disposed in a molten or solid form on an interfacing surface and/or in a groove of the bit body 110, the shank 190, or both. The bit body 110 and shank 190 may be screwed together as described above and the assembly may be heated to a temperature greater than or equal to the melting point of the metal gasket material to reflow the metal gasket material. In other embodiments, the metal gasket material may be brazed at the interface 300.
Additional embodiments of the present invention relate to methods of securing a bit body of an earth-boring tool to a shank. In at least some embodiments, the method may include providing the bit body 110 comprising a shank connector 180. The shank connector 180 comprises threads formed at a trailing end thereof. A shank 190 comprising a distal connector 210 is provided with a set of threads on the distal connector. The shank connector 180 of the bit body 110 may be coupled to the distal connector 210 of the shank 190 by screwing the shank connector 180 and the distal connector 210 together.

Lock in a great price for Akranes HI Hostel - StayWest - rated 8.2 by recent guests.
Traveller photo of Akranes
In June 2018 I stayed one night in a 4-bed dorm of Akranes HI Hostel. For that night I was the only person in the dorm, so I can't complain about the size of the room. If the room is fully booked, it might get a bit cramped. The shared toilets and showers were clean and I never had any problems to find a free one. WiFi worked very well in all areas. It is important to know that the receiption is in a totally different location in town. There is a 10 to 15 minutes walk between the hostel and the receiption. Breakfast can be booked for a fee, but I prepared my own breakfast. The kitchen was clean and equipped with everything I needed. Towels can be rented for a fee. The lady at the receiption was very friendly, attentive and spoke English very well. There is a direct phone line from the hostel to the receiption. All in all this hostel is good value for money and I can recommend staying here.

Nice, quiet an not very expensive place in Akranes, not too far from lighthouse and shop. Kitchen is very close to room.
The staff is very lovely and there is an easy way to get in even after opening hours or when staff is no longer there. Simple and clean.
Really cosy and quiet place. Super nice kitchen and house.
Marine, Norway
We liked this hostel.Clean, good enough kitchen for making some food. Quite place in the small city. The host answered by phone immediately.Thanks.
The triple room was fine. Safe and secure. We guests were on our own, something I never experienced before. The owners' parents came and kindly let me do laundry as there is no laundry service in town. It was the 3 buses taking 3 hours from the airport and the long walk to the bus that in rain and wind would be horrible with baggage. Just a small shelter, no facilities. Other guests came in cars.

Perfect Villa - Review of Munqar, Zurrieq, Malta - TripAdvisor
Zurrieq Vacation Packages
Perfect Villa - Munqar
MUg4XzE5XzNKVg==
What a wonderful Villa, it was just lovely in a quiet location. The accommodation was furnished beautifully with everything you needed. The pool was a bit cool but did not stop us from going in. Just 10 mins from the airport and easy to find. There were a couple of little snags bit these did not spoil our stay. 3 good size bedrooms all with en-suits and walk in showers which was ideal for my mother who is 82. All in all fabulous.
selbylodg...
This is a very luxurious villa set in beautiful grounds with many opportunities to relax. The view from the property is lovely. A lot of detail has been paid to the facilities with all the necessary things to be at home from home. It is very clean and looks even better in real life than the pictures.
It has 3 equally nice double bedrooms, a spacious open plan living & dining area.
The kitchen has good equipment, sufficient to self-cater.
Local shops have all that we needed to more than adequately provide for our needs. Delicious cheeses and fresh bread in the smallest of shops!
Malta itself was beautiful with so much to see & do. We will definitely need to return to see more as our 5 night stay was not enough!
We can happily recommend this property to anyone planning to visit Malta but make sure you hire a car to get around easily.

Everything was great. the house was very neat. Contacting the owners was quick and easy. gladly again
“Fabulous home for homebase to see Malta!”
We loved our stay at Villa Munqar! Janice & Charmaine at the Baldacchino Group were a pleasure to work with during the whole rental process. The villa is in a private setting but easily accessible to all of Malta. 3 large ensuite bedrooms. Wide open home and very well taken care of. Lots of natural light and there is plenty of room on the deck to enjoy the outside. Given we where there in December, the villa was a little cooler at night than expected given it's a stone building and there were constant winds coming off the ocean. Only a 6 minute drive over to the Blue Grotto area where there is a beautiful overlook and some great restaurants, specifically Cassarini Restaurant. The food and staff were absolutely delightful at Cassarini's.
Repoets
We stayed at Villa Munqar in early October 2017. Our party comprised 4 adults.
It's less than 20 minutes from the airport, at the end of a secluded lane with little through traffic. The villa and patios are not overlooked and provide fantastic views across the valley with Valetta on the far horizon. It's an ideal location both for relaxing and as a base for sightseeing. A short walk up the lane leads to breathtaking clifftop views of the Blue Grotto bay - a perfect spot for stunning sunset photographs.
The villa itself is very well equipped with high quality fixtures, fittings and furnishings. As previous reviews have mentioned the beds are a little too firm but that was our only gripe.
The unheated pool was spotlessly clean and the gardens are well maintained. Security standards are high with electric sliding gates across the driveway.
Janice and her team who manage villa bookings were very efficient and prompt to respond to questions and kept us updated before our stay. They offer the option to purchase a food pack in advance which was most welcome. They were also very helpful when we asked to check out late.

Fabulous hotel. Like being in another era.
Lovely, lovely building and surrounds. Experienced and extremely helpful staff. Fast and attentive service
We loved our stay at the Phoenix hotel. We extended by one night to a total of seven nights. I definitely would stay here again and would recommend this hotel to others. Staff are most helpful. I love the atmosphere of the Phoenix Hotel. Jogyakarta is an amazing city with a great deal to offer. Report this review Paul W.
A great colonial style hotel comfort, dining and location
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay for a family wedding
classic colonial gem in the heart of Yogyakarta
clean, well furnished, classic beauty
Yes, it's pricey. Food is also pretentious and expensive. But this is the famous Phoenix. We stayed one night in the rice patties outside Borobudur, and then we shifted to the Phoenix. The moment you step in, you feel like you've traveled back in time during the days of British and Dutch explorers. But don't let the classic design of the hotel fool ya. Everything inside is well furnished and quite modern, yet it retains the colonial, exploration-theme look and feel. The rooms could be larger, but it's just perfect for some rest and relaxation after a busy day of touring the famous temples, street markets, etc. There's a convenience store across the street, but do be careful when traversing through the sometimes crazy Yogyakarta traffic. Our balcony had a beautiful view of the city and sunrise, plus the cemetary to the left. Oddly, there's only one outdoor chair. Everything about the room is what you would expect from a 5 star. The bathroom did feel a bit cramped, and there was no bathtub. All the staff are very friendly, although the restaurant staff are not as sharp and professional as I had wanted them to be. Food was expensive but were of large portions. If your stomach can handle it, I recommend you explore the local food joints around the neighborhood instead. Our room was in a wing away from the main lobby, so it required a 5 minute walk through the inside courtyard and through a few corridors. Nothing that will tire you out, but a small bit of inconvenience. Overall, a fantastic experience still.

When the father of Mia's son - the man she believed died years ago - suddenly turns up in her bedroom claiming he's someone else entirely, Mia is in for an even bigger surprise. It turns out their son is the heir of the Prince of Calandria and he's come back to claim what's his. But does he also want to reclaim Mia's heart?

A Marcelli Wedding: The Marcelli Bride & the Marcelli Princess by Susan Mallery Paperback
The Seductive One (Marcelli Sisters of Pleasure Road) by Susan Mallery Mass Market Paperback
The Sassy One (Marcelli Sisters of Pleasure Road) by Susan Mallery Mass Market Paperback
Marcelli Princess and incredible ending to Marcelli series!
Format:Mass Market Paperback so glad I was one of those readers and fan of Susan's Mallery who asked for Mia's story and I wasn't disappointed! I loved the Marcelli series and Mia's story was no exception. It was delightful, entertaining, shed a few tears. However, what I most loved about this book was it brought out Susan Mallery's charm and sense of humor!Mia plus her sisters taking on a crown Prince? If you've read the series, then one would appreciate this aspect and the family dynamics. That's the appeal of the series and this particular book.......Mia, her son, the crown prince and the Marcelli family.As for lessons, there are many to be learned like what's important in life, what does love really mean to a person? What can respect, love and determination bring into a relationship? Not to mention, family values, traditions and holding each member close and dear to each of them.The book for me was a wonderful ending. I thought Mia was strong, fierce, determined and passionate. As for Crown Prince Rafael, he was brought to his knees by Mia and her family! Loved it!Again, Susan Mallery has delivered a wonderful story and series and one I shall long remember! Thank you Susan.
Format:Mass Market Paperback Dreadful. I wanted to like this book like I had liked the others in the series, but Rafael was a completely unsympathetic character and I don't understand WHAT Mia saw in him.
- Published on Amazon.com Format:Mass Market Paperback I usually love Susan Mallery's books, and have loved the others in this series about the Marcellis. The best part of this one is the updates on all the characters from the previous books. I still liked Mia in this book, but Rafael was unlikeable, and his sudden change in behavior at the end did not ring true to his personality in the rest of the book.Also, I know this is nitpicking, but where was the Secret Service?? Joe is married to the President's daughter, and they live on the same property, yet this Prince broke into the house, and his bodyguards roamed freely with guns. For some reason I could not get past that, and it hindered my enjoyment of the story somewhat. Wouldn't the President's daughter have Secret Service protection?It was not a bad book, just not one of her best.
- Published on Amazon.com Format:Mass Market Paperback|Verified Purchase Susan Mallery is becoming one of those hit or miss writers for me. Either she does it really well (i.e. The Sassy One, The Seductive One) or she completely throws you for a loop (Sizzling, The Marcelli Princess). I was really disappointed in The Marcelli Princess because I love this series, but the hero and heroine in this last installment are both annoying. I literally forced myself to keep reading. For an independent woman Mia relies too much on her family, lovely as they are, and Rafael's archaic sensibility makes him almost irredeemable. In my opinion, the best thing about this book is the chemistry that happens when the two are alone and the fact that we get to see how the beloved Marcellis from previous installments have fared. My recommendation: Get it from the library if you must, but don't buy it.
Hugely disappointing end to a once great series
- Published on Amazon.com Format:Mass Market Paperback|Verified Purchase When former CIA agent Mia Marcelli wakes up to find a stranger in her bed, she's shocked to learn that he's the lover she mourned for the last five years. Instead of being an international thief named Diego, he's actually crown prince of the tiny principality of Calandria (think Monaco), who assumed Diego's identity to trap his band of merry thieves. Mia has a surprise for Prince Rafael - in the form of their four year old son Danny. But Rafael already knows about Danny; in fact, he was sent by the King to retrieve Danny so that he can take his place in Calandrian society as heir to the throne. He is not above bribery or seduction to get his way. When Mia finds out about his true intentions, will her love for him (or is it Diego?) be strong enough to forgive his treachery?Mallery's final installment in the Marcelli family series is a major let down. Never mind the suspension of time (less than a year since the last book in the series was published, and she wasn't even an agent yet), the children that age faster than in a soap opera, and the lack of chemistry between the two main characters. The plot starts out interesting, but the execution is rather boring, the dialogue stilted, and the "hero" so unsympathetic (and his sudden change of heart unconvincing), that I'm sure more than one reader wished she got back with her teen fiance, David instead of investing further tears on her Euro-trash prince. Let's just hope there's no story for Kelly in the works to further tarnish the Marcelli name.I had pretty high expectations going in, particularly since the previous novel was so good. Rather than going out with a bang telling the most colorful of the Marcelli children's stories, Mallery instead ends the series on a sour note. I was also disappointed in another Mallery release ("Sizzling" from the Buchanan series) this year; perhaps Mallery needs to worry more about quality and less about churning out quantity.
Nothing likable about a main character
- Published on Amazon.com Format:Mass Market Paperback I do enjoy Mallery's books - particularly her recent ones. But this one was painful.The other reviewer was polite when referring to "Rafael's firm belief in duty above all else." I would have called him a manipulative, overgrown child who thinks the world exists to serve him and his family. For example, Rafael objects that 3-year-old Danny isn't the lead in the school play, but instead plays a tree. And he also tells Mia that she "shouldn't discourage Danny from knowing his own importance" after the boy whines that he is the best.That said, Rafael seems ultimately redeemable for the first half. Then Mia - and the reader - discover just how deceptive his plans are. And it was so truly vile that I found it impossible to get past.There's also a sub-plot involving a Marcelli-by-marriage that seems to exist solely for the purpose of having another book in the series. Two and a half stars (barely)
- Published on Amazon.com Format:Mass Market Paperback I hated it!! For one reason only the lead male character had no depth, he was completely one dimensional. He didn't even do the arrogant prince role well.His feelings for Mia appeared to be completely sexual there was really zero chemistry.. I'm sure that his alter ego Diego has to have been much much more fascinating. All the other characters in the book had much much more depth. The book had such great potentiial!

The Busy Person's Guide To Natural Health by Maggie Percy, Nigel Percy | | NOOK Book (eBook) | Barnes & Noble® If You Liked... Our Monthly Picks Paperback Store Summer Reading Things to Do at Home
Are you confused and overwhelmed about how to make good, natural health choices for yourself, your family and your pets?
"The Busy Person’s Guide To Natural Health" is a concise guide to help you approach health and healing in a natural fashion, tapping into the body’s tremendous power to heal itself by giving it the best possible environment to do so. Even if your budget is tight, there is much you can do to reach your health goals.
Maggie and Nigel Percy of Sixth Sense Solutions have been natural health advocates for decades. Maggie began her healing journey in 1990 when she had an extreme reaction to general anesthetic which doctors had no way to cure. That journey led her to explore other approaches to healing using her two degrees in Biology and fueled by her conviction that her health could be restored. Her path led through various holistic modalities like herbs, nutrition and homeopathy and on to energy therapies like Reiki and EFT. Finally, she learned dowsing to help her make good choices. These experiences not only led to healing; they taught her a more natural approach to health, one that anyone can use to reap health benefits.
Modern science only understands a small percent of all there is to know about how health is created in the human body, and that leads to confusing messages that flip-flop on key topics like what the best diet consists of or what the root cause of heart disease or cancer is. The conflicting advice and sudden abandonment of guidelines by experts can leave you wondering whom you can trust for help and support. In "The Busy Person’s Guide To Natural Health", you will discover how you can evaluate the latest suggestions for good health and make choices that will lead to better results by using a natural perspective.
"The Busy Person’s Guide To Natural Health" is not simply a list of dos and don’ts; instead, it teaches you how to make decisions that will optimize your experience of health on all levels: physical, mental, emotional and energetic, by approaching health from a natural perspective, meaning creating optimal conditions for your body to heal, repair and thrive in today’s world. It teaches you an approach that will give you an empowered viewpoint on health, instead of simply following the crowd or doing as you are told.
