Customer Reviews
This says it will work on iPad, but it`s only for iPhone. I was able to purchase and download it onto my phone, but if I want it for iPad, I have to buy it again! In addition, the iPad version costs two dollars more than this one! Severely disappointing.
There a two versions of this program
The ipad store is featuring this version, but there is an ipad version as well. It`s very annoying that they are two separate programs. I hate paying for things twice...
Daughter loves!!
My 2 year old loves playing this game! It`s teaching her so much. Need more bubble guppies games!!

If the beancounters could do it themselves, they would. But clearly, they can't.
You don't have the writers down there in accounting checking the balance sheets?
Why? NOT THEIR JOB.
Otherwise, the man signing the checks is the man you worry about making happy. And that's all television and movies is about 99% of the time: Most cash for least expense.
And if you need any explanation for the state of "entertainment", you need go no further.
Exactly why we need antitrust proceedings to break up all of these media monopolies, and soon, as I've said before.

MRP process on standby stops with ORA-00600
A rather not so great post about an ORA-00600 error i faced on a standby database. Environement was 22.214.171.124 on Sun Super Cluster machine. MRP process was hitting ORA-00600 while trying to apply a specific archive log.
The error message was something like this
MRP0: Background Media Recovery terminated with error 600 Errors in file /u01/app/oracle/product/18.104.22.168/diag/diag/rdbms/xxxprd/xxxprd1/trace/xxxprd1_pr00_6342.trc: ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [2619], [539], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [] Recovery interrupted!
Some googling and MOS searches revealed that the error was due to corrupted archive log file. Recopying the archive file from primary and restarting the recovery resolved the issue. The fist argument of the ORA-600 is actually the sequence no of the archive it is trying to apply.

Legislation (or "statutory law") is law which has been promulgated (or "enacted") by a legislature or other governing body, or the process of making it. (Another source of law is judge-made law or case law.) Before an item of legislation becomes law it may be known as a bill, and may be broadly referred to as "legislation" while it remains under consideration to distinguish it from other business. Legislation can have many purposes: to regulate, to authorize, to proscribe, to provide (funds), to sanction, to grant, to declare or to restrict.
Under the Westminster system, an item of primary legislation is known as an Act of Parliament after enactment.
Legislation is usually proposed by a member of the legislature (e.g. a member of Congress or Parliament), or by the executive, whereupon it is debated by members of the legislature and is often amended before passage. Most large legislatures enact only a small fraction of the bills proposed in a given session. Whether a given bill will be proposed and enter into force is generally a matter of the legislative priorities of government.
Legislation is regarded as one of the three main functions of government, which are often distinguished under the doctrine of the separation of powers. Those who have the formal power to create legislation are known as legislators; a judicial branch of government will have the formal power to interpret legislation (see statutory interpretation); the executive branch of government can act only within the powers and limits set by the law.

I was diagnosed with SPD after my LO was born and am still stuggling with the pain from it. I have been attending pysical therapy and going to a chiropractor but have still been waking up in pain. I am usually very phisically active (before baby) but have not been able to exersice since he has been born- sidenote: he was9 lbs 2oz at birth (dr. and chiro say its common after birthing bigger babies) I really want to lose this baby weight and am getting impatiant with my body.
Just wondering if there are any moms out there with this and how they healed from it or delt with it. I am wondering if I have high expectations- but I feel like I should be better by now. How long did it take others to heal?
Just in case your wondering SPD is when your pelvis stay's separated in the front pubis joint. Which separates when you birth your baby - sometimes mom's get it while pregnant because of all the pressure of baby on their pelvis.

This application is a division of U.S. application Ser. No. 07/528,954, filed May 25, 1990 and now U.S. Pat. No. 5,195,958.
This invention relates to a tool for use in laparscopic surgery.
Utilizing a high definition video monitor, a surgical team can perform operating techniques internal to the human body which are minimally invasive through the use of a laparoscope equipped with a television camera. The laparoscopic technique has been used to remove diseased gallbladders and stones by using a laser for hemostasis and disection of the gallbladder from the liver bed. Before the gallbladder is removed, the liver bed area is lavaged and irrigated, and suctioned. In order to irrigate or suction the liver bed area, the operating surgeon is required to temporarily abandon another instrument which he is manipulating when irrigation or fluid evacuation is desired. To avoid an increase in operating time which compromises the safety of the patient, an operating assistant is utilized to control the instrument which would otherwise be temporarily abandoned by the operating surgeon. Although the above discussion of the prior art was concerned with laparoscopic laser removal of the gallbladder, the identical procedure is used where the hemostasis and disection of the gallbladder from the liver bed is to be achieved by the use of electrocautery.
Conventionally, after the gallbladder is freed from the liver, a grasping forcep is used to pull the gallbladder through an umbillical sheath. In the event of free gallstones or clots which are too large to be suctioned from the operative area, a grasping tool must be used to grasp such stones or clots which are then singularly removed from the body cavity or operating area. This procedure increases the time of the operation which increases the risk of the surgery. If there are stones in the gallbladder which are too large to come into the umbillical sheath, the gallbladder must be teased through the fascial opening after the sheath is pulled through the fascia. Should it not be possible for the gallbladder to be teased through the fascial opening, an incision must then be made which will then permit the gallbladder to be removed from the body. When there are numerous gallstones in the gallbladder, the stones will distend the lower portion of the gallbladder as the gallbladder is being teased through the fascial opening thereby forming an enlarged diametric cross-section which prevents removal of the gallbladder through the fascial opening. This again requires an incision to remove the gallbladder and further increases the risk of surgery.
Present techniques for laparoscopic removal of the gallbladder from the liver bed constitute either a laser technique or an electrocautery technique. The electrocautery technique utilizes a coagulation hook for teasing away body tissue in the liver bed area to expose the gallbladder and the cystic artery and cystic duct after which the gallbladder is disected from the liver bed. The hook provides an advantage in teasing away tissue which is not available when a laser is used since the hook can physically lift the tissue before cutting. A laser on the other hand has the advantage of uniform cutting and prescise coagulation but without the capability of lifting the tissue, the depth of the cut must be estimated by the surgeon; too deep a cut will result in internal bleeding which must be stopped by coagulation.
There is, therefore, provided according to the present invention, a tool for laparoscopic surgery which permits the surgeon to irrigate or suction an internal body cavity laparoscopically without having to cease manipulation of other laparoscopic instruments and to provide for the rapid evacuation of stones and blood clots from an internal cavity such as the liver bed region or from a gallbladder which is being exteriorized or being pulled through the umbillical fascia. A tool is also provided which utilizes a combination of electrocautery and laser for laparoscopic surgery.
The present invention is directed to a surgical instrument for laparoscopic evacuation and collection of particulate matter such as blood clots or stones from a body cavity. The surgical tool is composed of a housing having an outlet port for the passage of evacuated fluid which has been suctioned from a body cavity and having an inlet port for the passage of irrigating fluid. The housing contains a first internal conduit which communicates with the outlet port and a second internal conduit which communicates with the inlet port. A third conduit having a proximate and distal end is carried by the housing. The third conduit communicates with the first and second conduits and has a distal end opening through which irrigating fluid may enter into the body cavity or through which fluid or particulate matter such as stones or blood clots may be evacuated by suctioning from the body cavity into the third conduit. In the preferred embodiment, a pair of push valves which are biased in a closed position are carried by the housing where the valves communicate with the third conduit for selectively permitting fluid flow between the third conduit and the first conduit or between the third conduit and the second conduit. Thus, irrigating fluid may be selectively admitted into the third conduit by opening one of the valves or fluid or particulate matter may be evacuated by opening the other valve. The valves are located adjacent to each other on the housing thereby permitting the surgeon to readily select either mode of operation without removing his hand from the instrument.
In another embodiment of the invention, the third conduit has an axially extending inner conduit which communicates with the first and second conduits of the housing. The distal end of the inner conduit has an orifice to permit the passage of evacuated fluid or irrigating fluid therethrough. An outer axially extending conduit has an opening at its distal end to permit the passage of irrigating fluid or evacuated fluid and particulate matter where the outer conduit surrounds the distal end of the inner conduit so as to form a collection region intermediate the distal end of the outer conduit and the distal end of the inner conduit. The outer conduit is slideably and telescopically mounted to the inner conduit so as to permit relative axial movement therewith such that the volume of the collection region may be varied. The distal end of the outer conduit at the opening therein contains a lip extending radially from the axis of the outer conduit so as to form a scoop for scooping free stones or blood clots into the collection chamber which are too large to be suctioned through the inner conduit.
In another embodiment of the invention, a nozzle member having a longitudinal axis is carried by the housing and has an irrigation and vacuum conduit extending therethrough which communicates with the first and second conduits contained in the housing to permit the passage of irrigating and evacuating fluids into and from the body cavity. The nozzle member has a axially extending channel which extends therethrough and is in fixed spaced relationship and substantially parallel to the vacuum and irrigation conduit and has an electrocautery hook outlet port communicating with the channel at the distal end of the nozzle. The housing contains a pair of push valves which are biased in a normally closed position and communicate with the irrigation and vacuum conduit of the nozzle when opened. The surgeon may selectively irrigate or evacuate while simultaneously utilizing the electrocautery hook to lift, tease, and disect body tissue. Thus, the operating surgeon can manipulate the irrigation, evacuation or electorcautery simultaneously without having to temporarily abandon another laparoscopic instrument being used in the operation.
In another embodiment of the invention, the nozzle has an electocautery hook fixed at its distal end and contains a channel axially extending therethrough. The axially extending channel communicates with an outlet port to permit the passage of evacuated fluid and also communicates with an inlet port to permit the passage of irrigating fluid. A laser fiberoptic bundle is insertable into the channel through a side port located near the proximate end of the nozzle and can be extended through the distal opening of the nozzel thereby allowing the surgeon to utilize both electrocautery and laser techniques without having to introduce an additional laparoscopic tool.
These and other features and advantages will become appreciated as the same become better understood with reference to the following specification, claims and drawings wherein:

FIG. 14 is a side sectional view of an electrocautery device.
FIG. 15 is a top view of FIG. 14.
FIG. 16 is a side sectional view of another embodiment of an electrocautery device.
FIG. 1 shows a laparoscopic tool for irrigation and collection of evacuated fluid and particulate matter in cross-section with the distal end being shown on the left. Adjacent the hand piece 1 is a housing 2 where the housing is shown in partial cross-section having an irrigating inlet port 3 and a vacuum outlet port 4. The mechanisms for supplying irrigating fluid to the irrigating inlet port and for providing suction at the vacuum outlet port are well known in the prior art and not herein described. A pair of push valves are shown in top view in FIG. 1 where push valve 6 communicates with irrigating inlet port 3 by an inner conduit 7. Likewise, vacuum outlet port 4 communicates with push valve 8 through a second inner conduit 9. As shown in FIG. 4, push valves 6 and 8 are biased in a closed position by spring members 11 and 12. When the push valve is sufficiently depressed as shown in FIG. 4, annular grove 13 is aligned with inner conduit 7 thereby permitting irrigating fluid to flow past irrigating inlet port 3 and into the common duct 14. Similarly, when push valve 8 is sufficiently depressed, annular grove 16 is aligned with the second inner conduit 9 thereby permitting evacuated fluid to pass through second inner conduit 9 and flow through vacuum outlet port 4. Referring again to FIG. 4, it can be seen that biasing springs 11 and 12 bear respectively against the inner head portions of knurled fasteners 17 and 18.
Referring again to FIG. 1, a third conduit or shaft member 19 has a proximate end 21 which is secured to the housing 2 and a distal end 22. The third conduit or shaft member 19 has a longitudinal axis 23 and adjacent or near the distal end 22 an opening 24 which is bounded at the distal end by lip 26; lip 26 forms the terminating end of the third conduit or shaft member 19 and in conjunction with opening 24, forms a scoop for the removal of stones or particulate matter such as blood clots from an internal body cavity. Terminating at the proximate end of the third conduit or shaft member 19 is an internal passageway 27 which communicates with a collection chamber 28. Both collection chamber 28 and internal passageway 27 have axis which are coaxial with the third conduit or shaft member 19. A screen 29 is inserted intermediate collection chamber 28 and internal passageway 27 so as to preclude the entry into the internal passageway of stones or clots which would act as a barrier to the flow of evacuated fluid through the third conduit or shaft member 19. A plug 31 abuts against screen 29 and has an opening therethrough which communicates with both passageway 27 and collection chamber 28 thereby providing a continuous path from the orifice 24 to the proximate end of the third conduit or shaft member 19. As can be seen in FIG. 1, the internal passageway 27 communicates with the common duct 14 of the housing at the proximate end of the third conduit or shaft member 19. Thus, by pressing push valve 6, the surgeon opens the valve and permits irrigating fluid to flow through the third conduit or shaft member and out of the shaft member at opening 24. If the surgeon desires to suction the body cavity to evacuate fluid and particulate matter, push valve 8 is depressed thereby opening the valve and permitting communication between the second inner conduit 9 and internal passageway 27.
Another embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. 2. In this embodiment, the collection chamber 28' may be varied in volume. The shaft member 19' is telescopically and slideably mounted to tubular member 27' for relative axial movement therewith. It can be seen in FIG. 2 that tubular member 27' at its distal end is capatively held by plug member 31' where plug member 31' has a pair of O-rings 30' to prevent the passage of evacuated fluid into the region 15' surrounding tubular member 27' and interior to the inside wall of shaft member 19'. To effectuate relative movement between shaft 19' and tubular member 27', it can be seen that at the proximate end of shaft 19' a nut member 32' has a seal 33' which surrounds the tubular member such that by hand pressure applied to adjustment nut 32', the shaft member 19' will move relative to the tubular shaft thereby increasing or decreasing the volume of collection chamber 28'. The structure of the housing shown in FIG. 2 is identical to that which is shown in FIG. 1 and is accordingly so represented in FIG. 2. In either of the embodiments, the surgeon may irrigate the body cavity by depressing push valve 6 or suction the body cavity by depressing push valve 8. The essential difference between the embodiments of the invention shown in FIG'S. 1 and 2 is that in the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the volume of the collection chamber can be selectively varied by the surgeon.
Although not shown, a three-way valve could perform the function performed by the pair of push valves described above. The three-way valve could be selectively positioned in a first position so as to permit the flow of irrigating fluid or selectively placed in a second position which would preclude the flow of irrigating fluid and allow the flow of evacuated fluid through the instrument. A neutral position would be provided so as to preclude the flow of either irrigating or evacuated fluid.
Another embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. 5 which illustrates a hand piece 50 shown in perspective that has a removeably mounted attachment 51 and a shaft 52 extending therefrom. Shaft 52 contains an internal channel 53 and a longitudinal axis 54 where internal channel 53 extends axially through shaft member 52. Located below internal channel 53 and substantially parallel thereto is an axially extending irrigation and evacuation conduit 55. Also shown in perspective FIG. 5 is an electrocautery member 56 which has a hook 57 extending from its distal end. As can be seen in FIG. 5, electrocautery member 56 is insertable into internal channel 53. This is accomplished by depressing tunnel bolt 40 which is biased by a spring 41 that bears against the inside head wall 42 of the knob 43. Referring to FIG. 9, the tunnel bolt 40 is shown before insertion of electrocautery member 56; the tunnel bolt has a transverse slot 44 which is moved into alignment with channel 53 by depressing the tunnel bolt thereby permitting the electrocautery member 56 to be inserted through the transverse slot 44 and into interal channel 53. After insertion into the channel, the hook extends beyond the distal end of the shaft member 52. The body of electrocautery member 56 is insulated and has electrical terminals at its proximate end to which an electrical voltage can be applied selectively by the surgeon so as to rapidly increase the temperature of hook 57 thereby permitting cauterizing and dissecting of body tissue. The electrical contacts, circuitry and voltage supply are not shown in the drawings since they are commonly known to one skilled in laparoscopic surgery utilizing an electrocautery instrument.
Referring now to FIG. 6, the handpiece 50 has an irrigating fluid inlet 59 and an evacuated fluid outlet 60. Communicating with irrigating fluid outlet 59 is a push valve 61 which is biased in a normally closed position by spring member 62 where spring member 62 bears against the inside head wall 46 of thumb nut 47. Inner conduit 63 communicates with irrigating fluid inlet 59 and has an outlet port 64 which is normally covered by the outer periphery 65 of push valve 61. As can be seen in FIG. 8, push valve 61 has an annular groove 66 which may be moved into alignment with outlet port 64 by the operator of the instrument by depressing push valve 61. This allows irrigating fluid to flow past the valve and into attachment 51. In a like manner, evacuated fluid may be evacuated from the body cavity and pass through attachment 51 by depressing push valve 67 biased by spring 48 that bears against thumb nut 49. As can be seen in FIG. 8, a seal 45 engages the outer periphery 65 of push valve 61 and similarly seal 45' engages the periphery 70 of push valve 67. Push valve 67 communicates with inner conduit 68 which in turn communicates with evacuated fluid outlet 60. The mechanisms for pumping irrigating fluid and for suctioning evacuated fluid through ports 59 and 60 are known in the prior art and are not described herein. Referring again to FIG. 8, it can be seen that a inlet port 69 for evacuated fluid is in a normallly closed position because of being covered by the outer periphery 70 of push valve 67. Annular grove 71 may be moved axially by the suregon into alignment with inlet port 69 by depressing push valve 67 thereby permitting evacuated fluid to flow into handpiece 50 and subsequently pass through evacuated fluid outlet port 60. As can be seen in FIGS. 5 and 6, attachment 51 is removeably mounted to handpiece 50 by hinged screws 71 and 72 which are hinged to handpiece 50 by pivot pins 78 and 79 and have captive nuts 73 and 74 which can be tightened so as to bear against bearing surface 75. The hinge screws are pivotally mounted to handpiece 50 such that when attachment 51 is mated to handpiece 50, the hinged captive screws may be rotated upward into a vertical position and the nuts thereafter tightened so as to bear against surface 75 to effectuate a lock between attachment 51 and handpiece 50. Attachment 51 has an irrigating inlet port 76 which, after attachment 51 is mated to handpiece 50, communicates with outlet port 64 which in turn communicates with inner conduit 63. Located intermediate outlet port 64 and inlet port 76 an O-ring seal 77 is utilized to effectuate a seal. Thus, the surgeon, by depressing push valve 61 will open outlet port 64 to permit irrigating fluid to flow into conduit 55 and discharge into the body cavity at the distal end of shaft 52. Likewise, by depressing push valve 67, evacuated fluid may be suctioned into conduit 55 from the body cavity and thereafter flow to evacuated fluid inlet port 69 and then through inner conduit 68 for discharge through outlet 60.
Another embodiment of the invention is illustrated in FIG. 10 where the attachment member 51' is shown detached from the handpiece 50. The construction of attachable member 51' embodys a shaft or conduit member 19" which has a distal end to the left 22" and a longitudinal axis 23". An axially extending internal passage way 27" communicates with a collection chamber 28" which is formed at the distal end of shaft or conduit member 19". An opening 24" is shown at the distal end of conduit member 19" which is bounded by a lip 26" and the axially extending wall of the shaft or conduit member 19". At the juncture of internal passageway 27" and the collection chamber 28", screen 29" is interposed to preclude the passage of stones or particulate matter into channel 27". A scoop is thus formed for the evacuation of particulate matter from the operative area. At the right or proximate end of detachable member 51 is a slot 80 into which the hinged screw 71 may be rotated when attachable member 51 is to be mated to the handpiece 50. To accomplish a lock, the captive nuts are screwed down on to the captive screws 72 against the bearing surface 75' to effectuate a lock in the same manner as detachable member 51 was locked to handpiece 50 in the previously described embodiment of the invention. As can be seen in FIG. 10, passageway 27" communicates with irrigating outlet port 76' and with an evacuating fluid outlet port which is not shown on FIG. 10 but is positioned laterally from inlet port 76' on the mating surface 81 of the attachable member 51'. A common duct 14' communicates with internal passageway 27" and inner conduit 7' for irrigating fluid and internal passageway 27" also communicates through common duct 14' with an inner conduit not shown in the drawing in FIG. 10 for evacuating fluid through the inlet port 69 shown on FIG. 8. Thus, a tool for irrigation and collection of stones and other particulate matter such as blood clots is provided which can be removeably mounted to the handpiece 50.
In yet another embodiment of the invention illustrated in FIGS. 12 and 13, a combined laser and electrocautery attachment 51" to the handpiece 50 is shown separated from the handpiece. Referring to FIG. 12, attachable member 51" has an insulated tube 90 which has extending from its distal end electrocautery hook member 91. Insulated tube 90 has an internal passageway 92 extending longitudinally through the tube for the passsage of irrigating or evacuated fluid. At the proximate end of attachment member 51" a housing 93 is illustrated which contains a banana plug receptacle 94 for delivering electrical current to the electrocauterizing hook 91. A side port 95 extends through the housing and communicates with internal passagway 92 where a laser fiberoptic bundle 96 may be inserted through the side port 95 and into internal passageway 92, thereafter be extended through the orifice 97 located at the terminus of insulated tube 90 at its distal end.
Referring to FIG. 13 which is a bottom view of FIG. 12 it can there be seen that the housing 93 contains an irrigating fluid inlet port 98 and an evacuated fluid outlet port 99 which align respectively with irrigating outlet port 64 of the handpiece 50 and with inlet fluid evacuation port 69 of the handpiece. A common duct 101 shown on FIG. 12 communicates with irrigating inner conduit 102. Located directly behind inner conduit 102 is an evacuating fluid inner conduit which communicates with common duct 104 and evacuated fluid outlet port 99. Housing 93 is insulated to prevent the grounding of housing 93 to handpiece 50 when attachment member 51" is attached to the handpiece. The hinged screws 71 and 72 pivot into slots 103 and 104 and the captive nuts 73 and 74 of handpiece 50 can be tightened to bear against the surface 105 of housing 93. Irrigating fluid inlet port 98 aligns with irrigating outlet 64 of handpiece 50 and evacuated fluid outlet 99 aligns with inlet port 69 of handpiece 50 such that the push valves may be selectively opened by the surgeon thereby permitting irrigating fluid to flow through passageway 92 and into the body cavity through orifice 97 or fluid may be evacuted from the body cavity through past orifice 97 and through internal passageway 92 and evacuated from the handpiece 50 through evacuated fluid outlet port 60.
FIG. 14 is a sectional side view of the electrocautery member 56 shown on FIG. 5. Hook 57 is a metallic member which can conduct an electrical current and is brazed to stainless steel plug 110 which is brazed to a metal conductive tube 111. The exterior portion of the metal tube 111 is covered by electrical insulative material 112 which surrounds the tube for its entire length. At the proximate end 58 of the electrocautery member 56, an insulating bushing 112 is attached by pin 113 to metal tube 111 where pin 113 extends into a copper bushing 114 which is brazed to metal conductive tube 111. A banana plug (not shown) inserts into the banana plug receptacle 115 where the electrical lead of the banana plug contacts copper bushing 114. An external power source is utilized to deliver direct current to the banana plug which when plugged into banana plug receptacle 115 completes the electrical circuit.
Another embodiment of an electrocautery member is shown in FIG. 16. As can be seen, a copper bushing 120 extends into insulating bushing 121 where said insulating bushing is made of an electrical insulating material. The copper bushing 120 is brazed to a metal conductive tube 122 which extends longitudinally and has an end 123 where stainless steel plug 110' is brazed into the end of the tube. A metallic hook 124 extends from the tube and is in electrical contact with it. Surrounding the metal conductive tube is a layer of electrical insulation in the same manner as shown in FIG. 14. As in the embodiment shown in FIG. 14, the insulating bushing 121 is pinned 125 to copper bushing 120. The banana plug receptacle and the function of the receptacle is identical to that described above.
While I have shown and described certain embodiments of the present laparoscopic surgical tool, it is to be understood that it is subject to many modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims as recited herein.

Algebraic Topology via Differential Geometry

Preview (read now) Add to my own site Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
In this volume the authors seek to illustrate how methods of differential geometry find application in the study of the topology of differential manifolds. Prerequisites are few since the authors take pains to set out the theory of differential forms and the algebra required. The reader is introduced to De Rham cohomology, and explicit and detailed calculations are present as examples. Topics covered include Mayer-Vietoris exact sequences, relative cohomology, Pioncare duality and Lefschetz's theorem. This book will be suitable for graduate students taking courses in algebraic topology and in differential topology. Mathematicians studying relativity and mathematical physics will find this an invaluable introduction to the techniques of differential geometry.

... and one outhouse filled with spiders. Oh and a stream filled with tadpoles and baby frogs so as long as they don't come near my tent I will be alright as we're here for 2 nights and I need proper sleep. Once we set up camp we went to a restaurant called "Salt Lick" which is this big Texan BBQ place. There was a half an hour wait so we played Cards Against Humanity again and this time I won.

Helpful Advice To Produce Venturing A Breeze
Preparing lighting is crucial for you to make your trips as effortless and without any pressure as possible. Provide one maintain handbag which includes everything you need, possibly not anything you want. If planing a trip to cold temperatures, provide small clothes to generate layers rather than huge, room-ingesting coats and sweaters. Your wise loading will pay off of when you find yourself gladly carrying 1 bag close to on a break instead ...

Clicking on the weather icon in the panel causes the forecast to appear.
Clicking a second or third time causes additional forecast windows to also
Suggestion: Assign a toggle to the Weather icon so that one click will
open the forecast, the second will close it. Now, the user must manually
close the weather window. Of course, the window should still be allowed to
be closed manually, and if so, the toggle variable should be reset.
IMO there is no reason to have multiple windows ever.
Since I still don't know python well, in pseudo code:

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Tennessee had lost to Texas four straight times, and Shanna Zolman was tired of it.
Zolman, a senior, scored 23 points to help the Lady Vols (No. 1 ESPN/USA Today, No. 2 AP) post a 102-61 win over Texas (No. 18 ESPN/USA Today, No. 16 AP) on Thursday night, ending the streak and handing the Longhorns their sixth worst loss in school history.
It was only the fifth time Texas (3-2) allowed an opponent to score over 100 points, the last time coming in 1999 in a 106-76 loss at Tennessee (6-0).
"I've never won against them. This team has never won against them, and coach was saying they're really the only team that's had a winning streak like they had against us," Zolman said. "That was definitely in the back of our minds this entire week."
Candace Parker added 17 points and 14 rebounds, Sidney Spencer had 12 points and Alexis Hornbuckle and Sa'de Wiley-Gatewood each added 11 points for Tennessee, which outrebounded Texas 45-25. The Longhorns had seven assists and 20 turnovers.
It was the Lady Vols' second blowout of a ranked team this season. They beat then-No. 9 Michigan State 83-55 a week ago in the Paradise Jam in the Virgin Islands.
The Lady Vols increased their lead at the beginning of the second half to 23 by outscoring Texas 15-6. Zolman hit back-to-back 3-pointers in the span. And Tennessee kept pouring it on.
Lindsey Moss came off the bench and hit her first basket, a 3-pointer, with 8:57 left that put the Lady Vols up 79-49.
Tennessee coach Pat Summitt improved to 16-11 over Texas and longtime rival Jody Conradt. The two are the winningest coaches in women's basketball. Summitt leads all men's and women's coaches in the NCAA with 888 wins, while Conradt is fourth at 872.
Conradt has seven freshmen, who made up what was considered the nation's top recruiting class. The Lady Vols have one freshman, Moss, and Parker and Alex Fuller, who both redshirted last year to recover from knee injuries.
The Longhorns took advantage of Tennessee's young players last season in a 74-59 victory in Austin, Texas.
"The players that lived through that night and saw what happened to us, they just wanted to get better," Summitt said. "We grew a lot."
Hornbuckle was a freshman in last year's game.
"I don't want to say I have pity for them, but I understand where they're coming from," she said.
Texas' lack of experience was glaring.
"They got us on the mat and we never got up," Conradt said. "I felt like we were going to have to ask permission to get a rebound."
Tennessee ran out to a 17-0 lead in the first 5½ minutes and were ahead by as many as 22 points twice in the first half.
The closest the Longhorns got before halftime was 37-24 after Earnesia Williams hit a jumper and Nina Norman had a 3, but Tennessee answered with Zolman's 3.
Norman and Tiffany Jackson each scored 13 points to lead Texas, and Carla Cortijo added 12.

Favorite Movie: almost anything by Dario Argento
Originally posted by X-Nightcrawler
Hm. People keep saying this. What do you mean, which scenes? There was very little CGI in the movie. Just some of the Gray Children (only the ones in the far background, for instance), the fog in some scenes, some backgrounds (the abyss of fire beneath when they look down) and the barbed wire at the end. Didn't seem really overused in my opinion.
The best case in point would be a scene in the first third of the film were Rose and Cybill re-enter the town and Cybill shoots one the the ghoulish creatures that walk onto them. The blood spurting out of the creatures head is clearly CGI and the image looks like it's lifted straight from the game. Another one would be the looks and the attacks of the "Pyramid Head" monster - the giant sword it is swinging towards the woman looks also clearly CGI and I doubt the whole creature isn't either.
I'm not going to argue with your info about how much actual CGI was used in the film since you're obviously a much bigger fan of the film than I am and thus know a lot more about it but I leave it at that : The effects in those scenes looked pretty fake to me and took me out of the film. I don't have a thing against CGI when it's well made by the way- the barbed wire in the end is a good example.

Justin Bieber doesn't care about all the backlash he is getting, because God loves him!
The 19-year-old pop phenomenon lashed out against his haters on Wednesday, taking to Twitter to defend himself against the recent slew of bad press and outraged fans he has amassed over his bad behavior in London –- and RadarOnline.com has the details.
Bieber, who threw a fit over the weekend because his 14-year-old pal Jaden Smith wasn't allowed in his birthday party at a London nightclub and then was booed by fans Monday night when he arrived two hours late for his O2 arena show, defended himself in a series of shorthand tweets.

"rumors rumors and more rumors. nothing more nothing less. might talk about them 1 day. rt now im just gonna be positive. cant bring me down im focused on the good things in life. im blessed and not forgetting it. im giving back every day for it. cant phase me," Bieber tweeted.
"fake stories to sell papers i guess are part of the job. but im a good person. i know that. u cant tell me different. we know the truth as long as my family, friends, and fans r with me u can say whatever. we are all equal in God's eyes & we have a responsibility to eachother so make up stories about fake fines and make no mention of the positive," he continued.
PHOTOS: Shirtless (And Almost Pantless) Justin Bieber
Bieber, who has recently been linked to aspiring British singer Ella Paige Roberts Clarke, the 17-year-old beauty who has been by his side overseas, does not see anything wrong with his behavior.
"or say when i came out of my show with my shirt off because after performing for 2 hours i might be sweaty i was going into a club (really?) or any girl i stand next to is my girl or that i dont care, or that i dont feel, or that a 19 year old going to a club in europe is wild… i understand it is part of the job to be judged…but judge me on the facts, judge me on the music, and be careful of the judgement [sic] u pass," he spat.
PHOTOS: Biebs Wears A Gas Mask In London
And in the end, the only person whose opinion he cares about is the "power" above.
"but know this…im only judged by one power, and i serve him so yeah I will continue being me," he preached. "i will continue to serve, to perform, to care, to love, to smile, to dance, to play, to sing… and u are welcome to join, because i carry no hate. We got to much love for that. Im about the music. Gonna enjoy the day and keep smiling. so should all of u. Much love. i see u #beliebers = i love u."

Jack Reacher walks alone. No job, no ID, no last known address. But he never turns down a plea for help.
Now a woman tracks him down. A woman serving at the very heart of US power. A woman who needs Reacher's assistance in her new job. Her job? Protecting the Vice-President of the United States.
©2002 Lee Child (P)2013 Isis Publishing Ltd, Random House Audiobooks
Fanatical Endurance Athlete, who listens to a lot of books while training.
"Great Story Concept"
You never think that personal protection could be so complex and challenging. Lee Childs, through Jack Reacher, looks at protecting the vice president(Probably why they call it fiction). Once you get past the nearly, laughable concept that a guy off the street can be used as a security consultant, the plot unfolds into a solid story where Jack Reacher lives in the echo of his brother, looking at revenge and love.
Solid and enjoyable story and the audible presentation is brilliant.
"Wonderfully implausible nonsense"
Our hero's absolute commitment to the cause and this story's showcasing of his knowledge and background
Yes, because if you're reading the Reacher series, why would you miss one out, even though this isn't the best I've listened to so far
Harding has a very good voice for narration and tempo
Not particularly
"Dragged a little"
Def not one of the best. Unusually this book didn't have the punch some of the other books are over flowing with. It had its good bits but only some and the chapters felt too long for me. The female love interest although every man would have probably done the same thing it was a little morally disappointing coming from 'the hero' we all can't be.
"Learning more about Jack Reacher!"
Meeting his dead brother's ex-girlfriend/lover and forced to talk about him, Reacher develops enormously as a credible character in this book.
"Brilliant and compulsive"
Recent convert to Jack Reacher novels ...ignore the film with Tom Cruise.
Think Raymond Chandler on steroids. Well thought out story with twist and turns as new evidence comes to light. ...not managed to guess the outcome yet of any of the stories.
Like the intricacies and characterisations, very well voiced by Jeff Harding, now my preferred reader.
I now know a lot about weaponry and ways of killing people!
"Listen to the details ... perfection in words"
Lee Child is a master story teller and Reacher is the means by which we see this.
The story comes across slowly, it's never forced into action though you are aware that simplicity has retreated and the strands of something very complicated are emerging. Lee Child's skill for observation is the glue that binds thought and action together. It's the small details that bring colour and understanding of his characters into a unity. This book is excellent.
All this together with the voice of Jeff Harding makes for compelling listening.
"As always, gripping, exciting and well read"
Jeff Harding reading Lee Child is an absolute joy. Harding brings the characters to life but his clever use of different tones to differentiate characters does not take over the book, just makes it better. this is an adventure story and it is gripping and exciting. Another triumph for both Child and Harding
"Another Reacher..."
I do like the Jack Reacher series although I can't help thinking it is the same ol' formula for each book and feels less original each time. Still won't stop me getting the next one. Wasn't a huge fan of the ending of this one but it's not truly awful either, if you like the series, you'll like this. I really like Jeff Harding as a narrator, I think he suits the books well. My only criticism would be that the female characters all sound the same to me. Overall a pretty solid listen though :-).
"Jeff Harding is Reacher!"
I have loved all recordings with J H as narrator simply because he is also an actor who creates a splendid mind image of the story.
"Another great Reacher story"
Vince Flynn always comes thru with a great story. An adventure that you know is going to make a great thriller.. You just want the story to continue. But let's talk about the next one.🔚
"Predictable but OK entertainment"
The Jack Reacher books is what I read when I want a book that doesn't need so much thinking or emotion. They are always an OK listening. I do wish the author, when he was finished with his book searched for "X said nothing" and then pushed on delete. That phrase does nothing for the story but gets so irritating to hear.

Parents need to know that Science 360 is a free, high-quality science and engineering news and information app published by the National Science Foundation. The scores of videos here -- including scientists interacting with jellyfish or mathematicians studying how snakes move to help create new mechanical engineering programs -- will appeal to science- and nature-loving kids. Others features, like text-only segments about motorized nanocars or computer charged density of FeO, may be too esoteric for most younger kids or teens who aren't science minded. Users can share what they find here via Facebook, Twitter, and email.
Science-minded kids will soak in the beautiful images and videos plus lots of compelling new information. The overwhelming main page with very little direction may be too much visual stimulation to choose from for some kids.
Kids learn by viewing a large group of updated thumbnail images related to science videos and text, choosing the ones that interest them or are relevant to their current studies, and then sharing them socially.
The icon-based tutorial could use more info. There's not much direction or ability to search for specific titles. Related titles appear when kids dig into one that catches their eye from the main page. Users can star favorites.
Downloading SCIENCE 360 is like introducing your kids to the brightest minds and the most interesting work currently being done in a variety of science, math, and engineering fields around the world. Younger kids may only want to watch the videos, as the text in many of the segments contains higher-level vocabulary. But there is something here to learn for anyone of almost any age. The fact that this app will hold your kid's attention (or yours) for hours on end is not surprising. What is incredible is that it's free.
Watch videos or read stories on this site with your kid and note the diversity of the scientists, conveying that anyone can be a scientist.
Talk about ways science impacts daily life. For example, one segment talks about how science can help you track your energy usage via smartphone. How could you use this kind of data in your home?

West Allis — After West Allis moved only three weeks ago to revoke the license of the Mobile Estates Mobile Home Park, 10401 W. Greenfield Ave., because the ordered repairs and cleanup remained undone after nearly five months, almost everything was done by last week, city officials said.
Even so, the Common Council License and Health Committee decided last week to hold off on renewing the park's license until Tuesday, May 20, to be sure all of the work was finished.
Park operator Thaddues Derynda said this week's stormy weather has held up work but he was optimistic that everything would be done by the end of the week.
Alderman Michael Czaplewski, License and Health Committee chairman, said, "I just hope they finish and keep up with maintenance so we're not all back here again next year."
Ted Atkinson, director of building inspection, said the owner has now been responsive.
"He has now invested money into his park," Atkinson said, ordering hand rails and other improvements.
Mobile Estates has 70 mobile homes.
The city order given in December applying to the overall park was to remove dead trees and brush, remove litter and garbage throughout the park and repair the sanitary sewer system to proper working and code-compliant condition.
Violations were for not removing the remainder of a mobile home that mostly had been razed and for not repairing skirting, installing guardrails, removing improper outdoor storage, removing garbage in yard, repairing broken windows, removing an abandoned vehicle, repairing decks to be code compliant, removing a shed, repairing a damaged fence, repairing a boarded window, repairing a wooden fence and removing branches on a home roof and from gutters.
