Boat Remains and Maritime Trade in the Persian Gulf during the Sixth and Fifth Millennia BC
Carter, Robert, Antiquity
Evidence for early interaction between southern Mesopotamia and the Gulf emerged in the 1960s and 70s, with the identification of sixth/fifth millennium BC pottery from Mesopotamia at scores of sites in the eastern province of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Qatar (Figure 1) (Burkholder 1972; Golding 1974; Masry 1974; Oates et al. 1977). The predominantly coastal distribution implied that the pottery was transported by sea (Oates et al. 1977: 233; Piesinger 1983: 753), though direct evidence for this was absent, and the existence of a trading relationship was explicitly doubted.
Recent research shows that advanced boat-building and sailing technologies were employed at this time, and that a true maritime exchange relationship existed between the Ubaid communities of southern Mesopotamia and the Arabian Neolithic groups of eastern Arabia. The evidence comprises boat remains and representations of boats from the site of H3, As-Sabiyah (Kuwait), and the distribution, function and imitation of Ubaid pottery in the Gulf. Together this shows that Mesopotamian ceramics were an item of trade, which were passed into the Neolithic system and incorporated into the local material culture and symbolic vocabulary. In the following discussion, 'trade' and 'exchange' are used synonymously (Renfrew 1975: 4). Neither carry market connotations, but are used neutrally to mean 'the mutual appropriative movement of goods between hands' (Polanyi 1957: 266).
Boat-related finds from H3, As-Sabiyah
The archaeological context of the boat-related finds can only briefly be described (for fuller details on excavations at H3, see Carter et al. 1999; Carter & Crawford 2001, 2002, 2003; Carter 2002, 2003). The site is located at the edge of a sheltered bay, now infilled. Its pottery is of the Ubaid 2/3 period, while radiocarbon dates indicate that occupation began between 5500 and 5000 BC (Carter & Crawford 2003: 84, Figure 4). A cellular complex of stone chambers (Figure 2) is associated with a mixed material culture, combining elements typical of the Arabian Neolithic and the southern Mesopotamian Ubaid.
Boat-related finds consist of a ceramic model of a reed-bundle boat (Figure 3); a painted disc depicting a sailing boat (Figure 4) and over 50 pieces of bituminous amalgam, mostly with reed-impressions and/or barnacle encrustations, which are interpreted as fragments of the waterproof coating of sea-going reed-bundle boats (Figure 5).
The 15cm-long model of a boat (Figure 3) was found against the wall of one chamber (Figure 2). It was carefully modelled to give a schematic but detailed three-dimensional depiction of a reed-bundle boat. Other examples are known from Al-Ubaid, Eridu, Oueili, Uruk, Tell Uqair and Mashnaqa (Hall & Woolley 1927: Plate XLVIII; Safar & Lloyd 1981: Figure 111; Breniquet 1987: Plate III; Thuesen 2000: Figure 5; Lloyd & Safar 1943: Plate XVIII: 13; Lenzen 1968 Taf. 23: h; Quails 1981: 12-13, 14-15), but none shows such detailed constructional features. The H3 model is in a coarse red ware associated with the Central Gulf. Key features include incised parallel lines and modelling which represent the shape of reed bundles. Reconstructions of Bronze Age vessels show bundle-shapes, even after coating with bitumen (Vosmer 2003a: Figures 2-3). Indentations along the tops of the sides may represent locations of cross-beams or thwarts, similar to a model from Eridu (Qualls 1981: 12). The tips of the H3 model are missing, but on other models they curve round into a loop or tight coil (Hall & Woolley 1927: Plate XLVIII; Safar & Lloyd 1981: Figure 111; Breniquet 1987: Plate III: 1). This is a feature of reed-bundle construction. The model has three piercings, two intact and one present where the tip has broken off. An unpublished model from Eridu and a published example have three and five piercings respectively (Quails 1981). They may have been used to fasten model steering oars and rigging. …

MEDIA RELEASE: Housing key to smooth tranistion for economy
MEDIA RELEASE: Housing key to smooth tranistion for economy
Posted : Tuesday, February 04, 2014
Watch live stream
of the 2013 EPO
Australia is not in a housing bubble and housing will be the key to a smooth transition to non-mining sectors for our economy in 2014, according to forecasts in CEDA's 2014 Economic and Political Overview (EPO) publication being released today.
In addition, business investment will likely remain subdued this year, while the government will face increasing pressure from the business community to deliver reforms in this term of government around tax and industrial relations.
In releasing the EPO, CEDA Chief Executive, Professor the Hon. Stephen Martin said in addition to the economic and political forecasts, this year the publication also examines government productivity, red tape and how external factors will shape Australia's economy, in particular looking at China.
"These issues were selected because they must be put under the national spotlight this year if we are to keep the Australian economy on track to lift its productivity and international competitiveness," Professor Martin said.
"Reducing red tape and improving government productivity are areas that need a strategic long-term plan. The business community expected clarity on how these issues would be tackled with the change of Federal Government last year, but unfortunately the clarity has not yet come to fruition.
"To make real changes in government productivity we must have an informed public debate on the role of government and what services the public is willing to pay for, it cannot simply be about reducing the head count in the public sector.
"CEDA last year called for an increase in the Medicare levy to better cover the cost of healthcare in Australia and that is the exact type of discussion that needs to be on the table now.
"In addition, introducing measures to reduce red tape, such as periodic audits of regulators and government departments, should be a priority."
On the political front, Professor Martin said the Commission of Audit and spending cuts will be centre stage at a Federal level along with how Tony Abbott and his team manage the Senate.
"While it is expected the Senate will favour a coalition government, key members are likely to be unpredictable and it will take enormous diplomatic skill to manage," he said.
"At a state level, our experts predict changes of government in South Australia and Tasmania."
CEDA's EPO, which has been produced annually for more than 30 years, provides analysis and discussion from leading economic, political and academic analysts on key issues that will have a significant impact on Australia in 2014.
CEDA 2014 EPO contributing authors are:
- Economic outlook - Warren Hogan, Chief Economist, ANZ; Katie Hill, Economist, ANZ
- Political outlook - Sabra Lane, Political Correspondent, ABC 7.30
- Government productivity - Dr Anne Tiernan, Associate Professor, School of Government and International Relations, Griffith University
How the 'Great Convergence' is changing Australia -
Roger Donnelly, Chief Economist, Export Finance Insurance Corporation (EFIC)
- Red tape in finance and its discontents - Professor Rodney Maddock, Adjunct Professor of Economics, Monash University; Vice Chancellor's Fellow, Victoria University; and President, Economic Society of Australia (Victorian branch)
The EPO is being launched in Perth today with a keynote address by ANZ CEO, Mike Smith. A free live stream of the event, starting at 11am (AWST), can be accessed here, along with the EPO publication and launch event program.

Is there a way to make WP the index.php in joomla?
Is there a way to make WP the index.php in joomla?
Isn't there a bridge to download from a Joomla site for using WordPress with Joomla?
If you're planning on using the WP index.php file in Joomla over the Joomla index.php, there might be problems....and even leading you into extensive PHP overhauling.. I'm not sure about it, but there is bridges and or components that Joomla might have to mesh the two together..
You'd almost have to edit the WP index.php file with some Joomla index.php file call tags..so it's not totally lost..
If you have Joomla installed, but want WP to be the primary site...I dunno then. The bridge should help ya get both meshed together, if you want WP to be the main software, then forget Joomla all together.. That's what I was going to use originally...but, found WP ALOT BETTER AND EASIER TO USE!! Rather then JOOMLA!
"but, found WP ALOT BETTER AND EASIER TO USE!! Rather then JOOMLA"
I totally agree! I tried Joomla, but compared to WP it's really awkward. Didni't like it all so went back to WP, and never regretted it for a moment. I couldn't see one advantage Joomla has over WP!
You could use the WP component for Joomla and move the menu item the component makes on first install to the first item in the main menu. That item is always the home page. Easy!

HUSKIES CALHOUN CONS COMPETITION: The NEW HAVEN REGISTER reports that after the UConn Huskies recently nearly blew a 19-point lead against tiny Quinnipiac, Huskies coach Jim Calhoun expressed his displeasure with opposing coach Joe DeSantis, who employed a myriad of zone defenses to keep the game close.
Calhoun: "That's fine, gamesmanship is great. But I just thought it was a (expletive) thing to do to be honest with you. You don't do that. That's the only thing that irritated me a little bit. He made a big deal to tell all you guys that he was going to play the way he plays."
Translation: "How dare Quinnipiac try to win the game?"

An update on progress, behind the scenes
As the functionality of semiconductors rises and costs fall, intelligence will be embedded in most home devices for a variety of purposes, including energy management.

One path to consumer engagement blazed by developers
Energy-related applications for consumers are one of the likeliest ways to engage for changing behavior, at least for Gen Y.

Help is still needed: where does the federal government fit in?
In light of news announced in yesterday's Boston Business Journal that Bill Gates, chairman and former CEO of Microsoft, is among the investors in Liquid Metal Battery Corp.'s $15 million Series B round, it seemed appropriate to discuss the May 22 Senate committee hearing on the American Energy Innovation Council's (AEIC's) report, "Catalyzing American Ingenuity: The Role of Government in Energy Innovation." You see, Gates is also a member of the informal AEIC group, and not afraid to put his money where his mouth is.Comments: 3

Kenda Kaala Self-Help Group
Evelyn started her business 3 years ago after accumulating savings from her former work place. She currently operates a small retail shop in the neighborhood where she resides with her family, located in Busia district. She would like to expand her business and start operating a wholesale shop. As she is the primary bread winner for her family, it would enable her to support both her children and her husband, who has a low-paying job. With the little profit that she gets from the business, Evelyn still struggles to feed, clothe, and educate her children and to pay her house rent. With the help of her loan, Evelyn will be able to increase her shop's stock to enable her to boost her monthly sales.
Disclaimer: Due to recent events in Kenya, the security situation in many communities remains unsettled, affecting many local businesses. Lenders to this entrepreneur should be aware that this loan may represent a higher default risk, and should be willing to accept this additional risk in making their loan.
Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

In a new twist on the theme, one of my favorite bands actually used vinyl records to create the sound of their album. Find out how when you read more.
Each of the 16 tracks on Arcade Fire's latest album, "The Suburbs," which hits stores in the US on August 3, was mastered to a 12-inch record and then transferred back to digital format, "so that the CD and digital version of the record sound just like the vinyl." Buzz has a preview of two songs from the album . . . do you notice a difference?

March 29—Wellington, Fla.
Wellington, Fla.—March 28
McLain Ward had a slow start to his season this year, but he's been picking up steam the last month or so. And with his latest win in tonight's $500,000 Rolex Grand Prix on HH Carlos, he's firmly back in the spotlight.
"As I always say to [owner Hunter Harrison], he's one of these horses that it's always worth getting dressed for," said Ward, Brewster, N.Y. "He's always going to fight and try and go big, and we really appreciate those athletes."
March 28—Wellington, Fla.
Kelley Farmer and Mindful topped Round 1 of the $50,000 USHJA International Hunter Derby today at the Winter Equestrian Festival. The 2014 Chronicle of the Horse Hunter Horse of the Year earned matching scores of 90 and topped all the high option fences on their way to the top of Round 1. She has a 10-point lead over Say When and Canadian Darcy Hayes, with Tori Colvin riding Heritage Farms' Vaillero into third.
March 27—Wellington, Fla.
It's not very often that the horse you pick out as a yearling goes on to win in the International Ring at the Palm Beach International Equestrian Center under your saddle. But Sarah Scheiring did just that when she piloted Eros SCF to the top of the $15,000 Adequan 6-year-old Classic today at the Winter Equestrian Festival.
Charlie Jayne smoked the competition in the Great American $1 Million Grand Prix with Chill R Z. Check out his flawless first round, then watch all six competitors jump off, with six rounds from Baronez (Kirsten Coe, fifth), Ohlala (Lauren Hough, fourth), Aristotles V (Jonathan McCrea, sixth), Rothchild (McLain Ward, second), Chill R Z and VDL Wizard (Callan Solem).
Chill R Z's first round:
Ocala, Fla.—March 23
Ocala, Fla.—March 22
When there's a line-up full of experienced hunters competing for the biggest hunter paycheck of the HITS Ocala circuit, you don't expect a 5-year-old to step up for blue. But rider Adrienne Iverson wasn't surprised that her partner Fandango HX earned a serious payday. He's been a natural in the hunter ring since he started just six weeks ago.
March 21—Ocala, Fla.
As the final east coast qualifier of the season, the lineup of the $50,000 Live Oak International CSI-W included an awful lot of ambitious riders all jockeying for an invitation to the Longines FEI World Cup Final in Las Vegas this April. But Cian O'Connor had a much more modest goal: He just wanted to test out his rising star, Good Luck, with an outing on the grass. And that stallion outdid himself, rising to the top of the 46-horse class in a competitive class to earn blue for the Irish rider and owner Adena Springs.
March 20—Ocala, Fla.
There's plenty to see around the HITS Ocala showgrounds, and it doesn't all happen in the show ring. Here are a few of our favorite moments from today. Want to see more from HITS Ocala? Check out this gallery from yesterday's action.

Zeti fights back
20 hours ago
I'm glad the crime of blasphemy no longer exists. What I find astonishing is the variable geometry of the political class. We are in a country where 95% of the desecrations concern Catholic places of worship or graves and not a single line appears, not one statement from a minister. And as soon as there is a desecration of a mosque or square, immediately, a press statement has to be issued.

Colin Firth's in-laws thought he looked more 'constipated' than alluring as 'Mr Darcy'
Colin Firth's wife, Livia, has revealed that her Italian family members thought that the Oscar winner actor looked "constipated" as Mr Darcy in BBC's adaptation of 'Pride and Prejudice'.
Livia, who started dating the 53-year-old actor before the BBC series started airing, said that her family didn't find the 'The King's Speech' star sexy after they saw him playing Mr Darcy, the Daily Express reported.
She further added that Italians can't deal with English restraints, but, the 'A Single Man' star eventually won them over because he wasn't like Mr Darcy at all.

NEW YORK (AP) - Just win, Houston.
The Texans did exactly that Sunday, rallying for a 43-37 overtime victory over the lowly Jacksonville Jaguars to retain the top spot in the AP Pro32 NFL power rankings.
Houston (9-1) received nine first-place votes and 346 points Tuesday from 11 of the 12 media members on The Associated Press panel reporting their ballots.
The San Francisco 49ers moved up two places to second following a 32-7 rout of the Chicago Bears on Monday night. The 49ers got one first-place vote and 326 points, while the New England Patriots had the other first-place vote and are seventh.
Despite the close call against the Jaguars, all but two votes stuck with the Texans.
"At some point during the season, every good team deserves a mulligan for performing poorly against a weaker opponent," Foxsports.com's Alex Marvez said.
"A win is a win, particularly in the division," said Rich Gannon of CBS Sports/SiriusXM NFL Radio.
Added Dan Pompei of the Chicago Tribune: "They had a letdown game and got away with it. That's a sign of a good team."
ESPN's Chris Berman was so impressed with the Patriots' 59-24 romp over the Indianapolis Colts, he moved them to first from sixth.
"Could have done without that 59th point," said Berman, a reference to the extra point in which tight end Rob Gronkowski broke his left forearm and will be sidelined indefinitely.
Atlanta slipped to third, with Denver, Green Bay and Baltimore rounding out the top six.
After a fifth straight win, Peyton Manning has his Broncos moving higher and higher in the rankings.
"Broncos may be most complete team in the AFC, even without Willis McGahee," Clark Judge of CBSSports.com said. "Remember, Peyton Manning took the Colts to a Super Bowl with the 32nd-ranked running game."
The Bears, playing without injured quarterback Jay Cutler, took the biggest tumble of the week _ five positions to eighth.
"Jay Cutler can't get back soon enough, but it's the defensive meltdown in San Francisco that should have Lovie Smith just as concerned," said Bob Glauber of Newsday.

Every Woman is Urged to Talk to Her Healthcare Provider about Ways to Help
Prevent Cervical Cancer
NEW YORK, April 25 /PRNewswire/ -- One4One, a unique program focused on empowering women to help make a difference in the fight against cervical cancer, starts today during National Minority Cancer Awareness Week. One4One urges women to talk to their healthcare provider about ways they can help protect themselves from cervical cancer, while also raising money to increase cervical cancer information programs and other educational services, especially for those who may be at greater risk of developing the disease due to lack of access to information or healthcare.
Organizations participating in One4One are American Social Health Association, Black Women's Health Imperative, Lance Armstrong Foundation, Gynecologic Cancer Foundation, Native American Cancer Research, National Asian Women's Health Organization, National Cervical Cancer Coalition, National Latina Health Network and Tamika & Friends, Inc., with support from Merck & Co., Inc.
For each woman who pledges to talk to her healthcare provider about cervical cancer via http://www.One4OnePledge.org between April 24 and June 5, Merck will donate $5, up to $1 million total, to the participating One4One organizations. The funds raised will be used to provide cervical cancer information programs and other educational services for women across the United States, including women at greater risk of developing the disease due to lack of access to information or healthcare.
In the U.S. alone, an average of 10 women die each day from cervical
cancer, and it was estimated that more than 11,000 women would be diagnosed
in 2007. "The loss of any life to cervical cancer is one too many, because
it is a disease that we can help to prevent," said Dr. Lisa Flowers,
Assistant Professor of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Divisi

Secrets of Success

Thursday, February 28, 2013
So one of the changes I had hoped to make in the new year was to see if I could apply the process of being successful to keeping my house in better order. It hadn't been going so good, though, and I was wondering where to get motivation and direction. I've tried FlyLady a few times but it didn't seem to help. Why couldn't there be something more like spark coach? Where was the roadmap?
There's a family wedding coming up this June and family will be coming to town and my husband graduates from law school (can you say non traditional student?) and I was thinking of stuff that would have to happen to have people over. All these things would need to happen anyway, I realized. So why let it stress me out?
I originally started my lifestyle change to get back to my comfortable weight, just past the obesity cutoff for my height. But as I got to thinking about it, I began to believe it was possible to achieve a normal BMI. And this same shift finally happened for my homemaking. I just have to believe it is possible. I'm not trying to life an X wing fighter out of a swamp, I'm just becoming a person who finds it worthwhile to keep her house up. I feel like believing really can make it so.
Yesterday I started to feel some results in this area. For church, we do visiting teaching, where we go to people's houses and chat with them, see how they are doing, and have a short lesson from the church magazine. In the past, the week I got visit taught there was drama. I procrastinated and then berated myself for procrastinating, and hoped there would be some kind of last minute cancellation. And the last minute press to get things presentable was fueled by anger at myself. But this time, I knew it usually takes about two hours to tidy the living room, and I didn't worry about it. I didn't yell at the kids or feel angry at myself, I just calmly and collectedly picked up what I needed to and moved what I needed to. And all the time I was amazed at how I was doing exactly the same thing, but my attitude was so different.
So we'll see how this goes. Even my willingness to use the word homemaking is different for me. I used to have this philosophical high horse about how making a home is more than being spotless clean. It was one of my Mom's rants. Well, where did that get me? It's not that I have to adopt that it is, I'm just letting go of the resentment about feeling judged.

It is like anything else, you set a few minutes and spend a little time and before you know it there is a big change that we just do not know where it came from.
I have been trying to do things like, do dishes before Taiji practice. Why this sequence, well I like taiji practice, I am less enthusiastice about dishes. If dishes come first then it is likely I will get them done so I can do my Taiji.
Many things in life are about learning how to sequence things into the correct order and correct time.
take care and let the Chi Flow

Well, as you already know, I'm trying to do the same thing. I've tried Flylady a few times, but she didn't help me much; just not disciplined enough, I guess. What I'm doing is working, though, so maybe I'll start making more progress. I can't do time-based goals, though, I have to do completion goals. Stuff like "clean this shelf today" or "do the dishes until I can see the counter." If I do time-based goals, I knock off when the clock goes off and end up not getting much done.

Awesome. Great change in thought.

First off, I love that you used the "lift an x-wing fighter out of the swamp" thing! Yoda would say, "do or do not; there is no try" and if you said "I don't believe it" when he lifted the fighter, he'd say "that is why you fail!" Secondly, it is truly all attitude! That rant your mother tried to bequeath to you shaped some of your beliefs. Now you are shaping your own beliefs with changed attitude. Spark ON!

I do the 15 minute goal. Every day (Sunday can slide) I spend at least 15 minutes doing something around the house. If I do it, I put an X on the calendar. The idea is that I don't break the chain. (all those x's look like a chain). I find 15 minutes is attainable, and as a result the house looks pretty good.

The coconut milk can be found in the Asian foods section of most supermarkets.
Leave a Review
Hearty, warm, spicy, filling, delicious, quick, and easy. Great for a casual dinner with friends. Most of it can be made in advance, just toss in the fish when you're ready to eat.flag if inappropriate
A great winter dish. Fast, easy, spicy enough to take the chill off. I added some scallops to the shrimp and snapper. I really liked the creaminess of the sauce with the coconut milk. Will make it again soon.flag if inappropriate
Great dish served over white rice. I used orange peppers, swordfish, monkfish and scallops (instead of shrimp) and added extra lime juice at the end, along with some Sazon (Goya seasoning). Next time I may cut the coconut milk with clam juice or fish stock.flag if inappropriate
Delicious! I will definitely make this again. The combination of flavours is wonderful- very fresh tasting. I too spooned it over rice which gave it some weight. I have made many delicious recipies from this site but this is my favorite so far!flag if inappropriate
We loved this! I added some dried lemon grass to give it more of a Thai flavor.flag if inappropriate
Don't know if it's authentically Brazilian, but it's certainly authentically delicious! I served it in shallow bowls with some steamed rice, and an avocado salad. Yummy!flag if inappropriate
We tried this out on company with hopes there would be leftovers--but there weren't any. They loved it.flag if inappropriate
I made this for Valentine's Day dinner, and it was perfect! I left out the crushed red pepper, and added one diced mango instead. This recipe is relatively easy to prepare, and quite stunning to serve - but make sure you're feeding more than two people. Served over basmati rice, I had a lot left over and was eating it for days.flag if inappropriate
Great recipe. I tried it with red and yellow peppers, and for seafood - shrimp, salmon fillet, and at the end, added some fresh bay scallops. Since I'm on weight watchers, I used lite coconut milk to reduce the fat. My husband and I both loved it, and I'll be making this often!flag if inappropriate

Faucet spouts are an important piece to any establishment's plumbing puzzle. No matter what intricacies you may have going on under the sink, the right faucet spout above the sink makes all the difference. Do you need a longer spout to reach further distances, or is a fashionable gooseneck going to do the trick? Maybe you need something that swivels so you can fill two sinks and a few buckets when business is booming. We've got a little bit of everything when it comes to faucet spouts, and finding the right length and shape to suit your needs should be easy.
And for those plumbers out there, we have the faucet spouts you need to impress even the finickiest of customers.

FRESH MEADOWS, N.Y. — Last Thursday morning at the Bagel Oasis in Rep. Anthony Weiner's district of Queens, Mike Boccomino waited to order coffee as an NY1 news anchor on the TV above the counter remarked about "the enormous amount of oxygen" the congressman's lewd picture scandal has received.
A newspaper rack next to the Hostess snack cakes offered diminishing piles of the New York Post ("Battle of the Bulge. Weiner Exposed, Admits: Could Be My Weiner in Twitter Pic") and the Daily News ("Weiner's Pickle: Says Sexy Pic Might Be Him But He Didn't Send it. Huh?") .

- Excellent quality, perfect for GP registrar Review by HA
Overall Rating
Great service from medisave, quick delivery and item as described. I chatted with several of the partners in our practice about which otoscope/fundoscope combination to use. I decided to go for this slightly more expensive version as it comes with cobalt blue light useful for illuminating corneal abrasions.
All great so far and I feel this is the perfect level for life as GP registrar and on to fully qualified GP.

- Good piece of kit Review by Peter
Overall Rating
Good bright display and easy to use. Carry case is slightly cheap and plasticky, but the tool itself is solid and feels reliable.

- Supreme quality feel and inspires confidence Review by Chris
Overall Rating
Was using a cheaper otoscope and grew to hate it more and more by the day for inconsistent light output/flimsy feel and have been itching to buy a welch allyn diagnostic set for nearly 2 years, including looking at e-bay. Saw this set at £162 all inc and my eyes nearly dropped out of my head, couldn't buy it fast enough. Very pleased with it, having previously used this model in earlier jobs. I have e-mailed my dr friends about it to see if they want a bargain too!

As a GP, I have been using it for the past 2 years and no complaints at all. Excellent product. 10 year warranty is a bonus.

- great Review by jingda

it's the same as the ones supplied by my medical school (London) so it's pretty standard. A good starting point for medical students and easy to use!

- Perfect for Students Review by AA
Overall Rating
This diagnostic set is affordable and has good functionality.
The handle is supposed to be easy to upgrade later so that's another advantage.
The only problem I have with this is that the case is a little flimsy but that's not a huge problem.
