"Whale Rider" arrives in theaters already proven as one of the great audience-grabbers of recent years. It won the audience awards as the most popular film at both the Toronto and Sundance film festivals, played to standing ovations, left audiences in tears. I recite these facts right at the top of this review because I fear you might make a hasty judgment that you don't want to see a movie about a 12-year-old Maori girl who dreams of becoming the chief of her people. Sounds too ethnic, uplifting and feminist, right? The genius of the movie is the way is sidesteps all of the obvious cliches of the underlying story and makes itself fresh, observant, tough and genuinely moving. There is a vast difference between movies for 12-year-old girls, and movies about 12-year-old girls, and "Whale Rider" proves it.
The movie, which takes place in the present day in New Zealand, begins with the birth of twins. The boy and the mother die. The girl, Pai (Keisha Castle-Hughes) survives. Her father, Porourangi (Cliff Curtis), an artist, leaves New Zealand, and the little girl is raised and much loved by her grandparents Koro and Nanny Flowers.
Koro is the chief of these people. Porourangi would be next in line but has no interest in returning home. Pai believes that she could serve as the chief, but her grandfather, despite his love, fiercely opposes this idea. He causes Pai much hurt by doubting her, questioning her achievements, insisting in the face of everything she achieves that she is only a girl.
The movie, written and directed by Niki Caro, inspired by a novel by Witi Ihimaera, describes these events within the rhythms of daily life. This is not a simplistic fable but the story of real people living in modern times. There are moments when Pai is lost in discouragement and despair, and when her father comes for a visit she almost leaves with him. But, no, her people need her--whether or not her grandfather realizes it.
Pai is played by Keisha Castle-Hughes, a newcomer of whom it can only be said: This is a movie star. She glows. She stands up to her grandfather in painful scenes, she finds dignity, and yet the next second she's running around the village like the kid she is. The other roles are also strongly cast, especially Rawiri Paratene and Vicky Haughton as the grandparents.
One day Koro summons all of the young teenage boys of the village to a series of compulsory lessons on how to be a Maori, and the leader of Maoris. There's an amusing sequence where they practice looking ferocious to scare their enemies. Pai, of course, is banned from these classes, but she eavesdrops and enlists a wayward uncle to reveal some of the secrets of the males.
And then--well, the movie does not end as we expect. It does not march obediently to standard plot requirements but develops an unexpected crisis and an unexpected solution. There is a scene set at a school ceremony, where Pai has composed a work in honor of her people and asked her grandfather to attend. Despite his anger, he will come, won't he? The movie seems headed for the ancient cliche of the auditorium door which opens at the last moment to reveal the person that the child onstage desperately hopes to see--but no, that's not what happens.
It isn't that Koro comes or that he doesn't come, but that something else altogether happens. Something in a larger and more significant scale, that brings together all of the themes of the film into a magnificent final sequence. It's not just an uplifting ending, but a transcendent one, inspired and inspiring, and we realize how special this movie really is. So many films by and about teenagers are mired in vulgarity and stupidity; this one, like its heroine, dares to dream.
This movie is trying to kill these women, but they endure.

Hello i want to know what type of felony is injury to a child by omission in the state of Texas and if a person is charged with a state jail felony and third degree felony first time offense are the eligible for probation
Criminal Defense Attorney
Injury to a child by omission means that the charged person allegedly owed a duty to the child to protect the child from injury or at least to get the child medical help if the child was injured. It does not mean that the charged person actually inflicted the injury on the child.
People charged with state jail felonies and third degree felonies can receive straight probation if they do not have prior felony convictions and deferred adjudication probation from a judge even if they do have prior felony convictions. It is very, very dependent on the facts on whether one would be offered or receive a probation.
Family Law Attorney
injury to a child by omission means that the legal guardian, or someone with the legal duty to support/protect the child, failed to take an action they should have taken, and the failure to take that action caused injury to the child.

Product Description
"The most affecting and successful narrative ever done about the Holocaust."
—The Wall Street Journal
"The first masterpiece in comic book history."
—The New Yorker
"A loving documentary and brutal fable, a mix of compassion and stoicism [that] sums up the experience of the Holocaust with as much power and as little pretension as any other work I can think of."
—The New Republic
"A quiet triumph, moving and simple—impossible to describe accurately, and impossible to achieve in any medium but comics."
—The Washington Post
"Spiegelman has turned the exuberant fantasy of comics inside out by giving us the most incredible fantasy in comics' history: something that actually occurred . . . The central relationship is not that of cat and mouse, but that of Art and Vladek. Maus is terrifying not for its brutality, but for its tenderness and guilt."
—The New Yorker
"All too infrequently, a book comes along that's as daring as it is acclaimed. Art Spiegelman's Maus is just such a book."
"An epic story told in tiny pictures."
—The New York Times
"A remarkable work, awesome in its conception and execution . . . at one and the same time a novel, a documentary, a memoir, and a comic book. Brilliant, just brilliant."
—Jules Feffer

Through the seemingly absurd decision to use animals in place of people - Jews are mice, for instance, while Nazis are cats - Spiegelman manages to avoid coming across as heavy-handed, exploitative and melodramatic. The reader never feels that they are reading an educational tome with badly drawn people better suited for school than compelling entertainment. Instead, through the use of universal cartoon imagery, the emotional tug of the story is successfully conveyed.
Two threads are woven throughout. The first deals with the Holocaust directly, from the years before Jews were taken to the camps and then to release. The second thread deals with Spiegelman's relationship with his father many years later, and that relationship's ups and downs as the author tries to get the oral history he needs to tell the tale of "Maus." All of the pain, confusion, death, turmoil and horror of the Holocaust comes home, as does the autobiographical tale interwoven throughout of the author's relationship with his father - who is also the central figure of Holocaust survival.
Modern editions of this book ("Maus" was originally published in serial form) are generally produced very well. The two-book slipcase offered here is sturdy and attractive to look at. The pages are printed on thick, glossy stock. The black and white artwork really shines, every stroke visible and vibrant. Mine has been read multiple times and still looks great.
"Maus" is compelling reading that requires no great love of comics to enjoy. History lovers, those interested in the Holocaust, and people who like stories about family struggles will enjoy this. Readers will quickly forget they are reading a comic, instead becoming wrapped up in the story Spiegelman has to tell. A highly recommended buy.
I've read Maus I and II several times since then, and each time it surprises me with its understated power. It's an almost magical combination of words and images that coalesce into two--almost three--parallel stories: that of Vladek Spiegelman's survival and eventual liberation from Auschwitz, and his relationship with his beloved, slightly unstable wife Anja, who committed suicide after the war; and that of the progress of Vladek's relationship with his grown son Art, the author of these books. By recreating his parents' world, before and during the Holocaust, Art Spiegelman attempts to understand how those experiences shaped his father, and tries to come to terms with his own frustration in dealing with Vladek now, a stubborn, bitter, ultimately fragile old man.
Spiegelman's cartoon images are brutal--not, for the most part, because they're horrifically graphic, but because the angular line drawings, the opaque shadows, and the humanoid animals lend a creepy surrealism to the stories.Read more ›
I love reading stories about History, or any historical fiction really. I've always taken a particular liking in reading about World War II and that's the main reason I decided to pick up this graphic novel. I have to say that I really enjoyed it.
The two main Characters are Art and Vladek. Art is trying to understand his father better by writing a graphic novel on how he survived the Holocaust. They both have a difficult relationship and Art believes one of the reason why that would be is because of the way the war affected his father. I loved reading about their interactions and witnessing how Art was slowly getting to know his father better as he narrates his story.
The story is written on two time-lines. First, we have panels about Art and his father Vladek talking about the war and trying to establish a relationship and there also are other panels where the reader can read about Vladek trying to survive the war. I loved that I could see these two perspectives.
The panels are totally in black and white. I really liked this because I think it adds more power to the heavy themes the story conveys. Also, the characters are represented under the forms of animals: Jews are mice, Germans are cat, Americans are dogs, etc. I think this concept was really original.
For someone that does not read a great amount of graphic novels, I really enjoyed this one and I am giving four stars to both volumes. I recommend this book to anyone that wants to read more about history or would like to get more into graphic novels :)

If you desire to look slim, go for boot cuts jeans. A boot cut style flatters your figure; wear it with pointed toe shoes.
Wear dark colors:
Dark colors such as black, red, chocolate are great to enhance your looks and to give you an over all slim effect. For a lean look try clothing all in one color. Colors falling in the same stream such as black and grey can look great for a night out fit.

If you are dressed in a well fitted top, pair with flared trousers or boot cut jeans. On the other hand if you are wearing skinny jeans, match it with a loose fitting top.Follow these tricks with good planning to look and feel great. Find time to have a slim figure through exercise and diet.

Take this all with a very large grain of salt. The reason he alludes to at the end of his article is because Nate Davis Ethnicity. The same reason he predicted Nate Davis would be the best QB out of college.
Jason Whitlock became famous playing the race card and does it often and most times inappropriately. My brother is a huge KC fan, lives in KC, and he has been sending me this clowns garbage for years.
With that said Nate Davis is looking like he could be a very solid QB in this league and I am very excited he is on our roster. But we will have to wait and see how he handles an offense when the other team is game planning against him before we get to ahead of ourselves. Go slow with the young man.

I have written ad copy freelance over the years - I wonder if I could direct some work my way by offering my services to the various Chinese electronics firms that are trying to make a dent in the US/EU marketplace.
The three paragraphs under the heading: "Looking For The Lost Sound" are some of the worst ad copy I have read. It makes no sense and does nothing to entice buyers to spend their hard earned dollars/euros...
It won't make a lot of difference to the folks here at Head-Fi, because we are already sold - for the most part. But the general public?
Hoo Boy!

I glanced through X3's English page at Fiio's web page. Some translations do not seem accurate. For example, X3's bass EQ and treble EQ are both hardware-based, correct? Fiio's official page reads "firmware bass" and "firmware treble". Not a big deal for me (I will buy an X3 however they call it), but it is better to be accurate in the official page.

No offense, but I've noticed problems on pretty much every product page on FiiO's website for a long time now.
That said, there are a few errors this time around (as zzffnn pointed out) that seems to be more critical.

The translation of the X3 itself was done pretty well. Head-Fi'ers, myself included, proofread it.
Yeah. But a good translation doesn't not necessarily make good marketing text. For example, "It plays just about every lossless music. You might love its sound." Might? This is marketing. You don't suggest doubt. Might as well go with the cliche of "You will love its sound."
While some of the sentences are grammatically correct, as Ivabign pointed, out they are not very good.
And then there are still some errors:
"For now, digital audio formats which represented by MP3 have become the main stream."
With errors corrected,
"For now, digital audio formats, which are represented by MP3, have become mainstream."
Then a little tweaking just to improve the sentence stylistically:
"For now, digital audio formats such as MP3 have become mainstream."

My hypothesis on onchocerciasis, or river blindness, appeared in the Geographical Review of 1966. It led to an invitation from the World Health Organization in 1972 to revisit the problem area for two months to provide information to assist in the planning of a twenty-year program of intervention. This article presents unpublished maps selected from my 1972 report. The issues discussed have relevance today regarding international health projects, air-mass climatology, and human geography.

L.A. Hotels With Attitude
By HILARY de VRIES
Published: September 19, 1999
THE hotel scene in Los Angeles is red hot. As part of the city's ongoing revival fueled by a booming local economy, several stylish new upstarts have taken their place alongside such dowagers as the Beverly Hills Hotel, the Regent Beverly Wilshire and the Hotel Bel-Air. This is good news for both travelers and residents who frequent hip hotel restaurants and bars, such as the Mondrian's Sky Bar, ground zero for the cognoscenti when it opened nearly three years ago.
What began with Ian Schrager's renovation of the Mondrian on the Sunset Strip in 1996 and the opening of Shutters on the Beach in Santa Monica in 1993 has gathered momentum in the past 12 months as several new or newly renovated hotels have opened -- with more to come this fall, including Casa Del Mar in Santa Monica and the W Los Angeles in Westwood. I recently stayed in three of them with my boyfriend, Michael. Two have been refurbished and are in Beverly Hills -- the Avalon, the former Beverly Carlton, and L'Ermitage, which has had a $65 million makeover. The Standard on Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood is new, renovated from a former retirement home.
The Standard
The first time I called the Standard to book a room three weeks ahead, the reservations desk was so busy I was told to call back. Open since March, the 142-room Standard has been a hit with those looking for budget-priced, high-style accommodations on the Sunset Strip.
Owned by Andre Balazs, who bought and renovated the Chateau Marmont down the street, the Standard aims at a younger, less affluent -- and yes, harder partying -- crowd than either the Chateau or the Mondrian. When I reached a reservations agent some hours later, I was told the hotel's $95 rooms, among the cheapest in L.A., were long gone. ''Those go really fast,'' the agent told me, adding with remarkable candor, ''but they're right on the street and really noisy.'' That was all I needed to request a more expensive ($165) room on the hotel's quieter south side.
Even before you cross the threshold, the Standard lets you know who's boss. The motel-like 1960's three-story structure with its undulating facade is painted bright white and illuminated by glowing blue lights reminiscent of those bug zappers used at roadside ''tourist courts.'' Under the carport, guests are greeted by valets dressed as gas station attendants circa 1950. The hotel's sign, a white vinyl banner roped to the carport, hangs upside down. No icy Armani-clad chic here. This is a rock-n-roll haven dolled up for 90's ironists. There aren't many places, even in L.A., where you'll find Arco lamps and Ligne Roset sofas in the lobby, a performance art aquarium behind the check-in desk, a resident tattoo artist in the barber shop and condoms in the minibar.
I was braced for similar attitude from the hotel staff, but check-in was smoothly professional, even friendly. And while I was easily the only guest pulling out a pair of reading glasses to sign the registration, the desk clerk assured me I was in for a ''great party weekend'' with as much enthusiasm as he greeted the group of tattooed 20-something males wearing cargo pants that was checking in next to me.
My room, 326, on the hotel's top floor overlooking the pool deck, was surprisingly large and filled with more stylishly ironic details, like the Andy Warhol flower-print drapes and the matchbook from Hollywood Bail Bonds wedged in the tail-fin ashtray. Decorated in vivid primary colors -- blue, black and white for the bedroom, Day-Glo orange and white for the bathroom -- the room suggested anything but repose. It had a king-size platform bed (with cotton sheets and a single wool blanket) and two nightstands with lamps on dimmers (one of which worked) directly across from a wall-sized mirror hanging over the built-in desk. There was one white plastic desk chair as well as a beanbag chair covered in silver vinyl. The small balcony overlooking the pool was unfurnished. The bathroom was even more spare, with a commercial toilet (no lid) next to a small tub with a shower head and two sets of white towels, Neutrogena soap and shampoo. Six plastic hangers and a laundry bag hung behind a white canvas curtain that served as the only closet.
The room was outfitted, however, with a wealth of electronic gadgets -- large-screen TV with a VCR and premium cable, a stereo with CD player, a cordless two-line phone -- and the minibar, crammed with a full split of vodka, Vaseline and an aromatherapy candle in a pill canister, was a party in itself. If I had just gotten out of college, the room would have qualified as nirvana. Pawing through the minibar (Veuve Clicquot and Gummi Bears!) I felt like Margaret Mead doing field research on Generation Next.
Downstairs in the hotel bar, which was decorated with a rec-room style desertscape mural and surprisingly comfortable wicker tub chairs, I joined Michael for a predinner drink. A breeze from the pool deck fluttered the gauzy drapes and votive candles flickering on the tables. Not that anyone seemed to notice, as the party was already raging with the raucous beer-and-martini crowd.

90-hour work weeks, free coffee, rad haircuts...working for Sega's testing team in the mid-90s sure looked like shitty work.
There's an old commercial for Westwood College that's become something of a running joke in the video game world. Two young men sit at a couch, hammering away at PlayStation controllers. A woman walks in. "Hey guys, finish testing that game yet?" she asks. "I've got another one I need designed."
Tomorrow at 3pm ET we'll have someone who makes video game trailers here to answer your questions in an early Thursday edition of Kotaku Asks. So start brainstorming now!
Curious about what it's like to play video games for a living? Want to know how grueling—or how satisfying—it can be to work as a QA tester for major video game companies?
I like Helldivers. It's one of my favorite PS4 games. But I had 11 questions about it. I posed them to one of the game's designers. He had answers. Thank goodness.
We're in the second week of a YouTube copyright enforcement crackdown whose most visible effects have been on the video gaming community. Each day turns up a new example of a video getting thrown in YouTube jail on a ridiculous technicality. The situation seems to defy common sense, but we'll try to explain it in…
There was recently an article published on this very site, written by Nathan Peters. It was a description of his experience as a contract employee in the video game industry; specifically in the QA department of Certain Affinity, a studio that worked on multiplayer aspects of Halo 4. The summary of the article is…
You might know the name Victor Ireland—the outspoken ex-head of Working Designs was responsible for translating and publishing a number of beloved Japanese games, like the Lunar series and Alundra.
When a video game ships with tons of bugs, one excuse that gets thrown out is that it wasn't tested throughly enough. But what about the people who do the testing? Is there a way for them to get beyond filing bug reports and having a greater impact on development?
Earlier this week we posted a story article regarding the hardships of being a QA tester in the video game industry. Commenter Gunflame is here to set the record straight—it's a job, get over it.
Was Final Fantasy XIII too linear for you? Square Enix has heard the complaints, and answers them with a mechanic that's about as non-linear as they come: Time travel. How does it work? Director Motomu Toriyama has the answers.
Sony is gearing up for season three of its PlayStation Network reality show The Tester, asking gamers to submit a profile for their chance to compete for a shitty job and be ridiculed by Kotaku.
Sony Computer Entertainment America is consolidating its two QA groups in one location, meaning 30 staff positions are being sent from the Bay Area to San Diego, Calif., and we hear another 100 contract positions were affected.
In a press release Q&A issued by Konami today, Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima stresses the importance of the PSP installment of the Metal Gear Solid series, calling it, "a MGS5-class game."
NetDevil's Jumpgate evolution is a concept that sells itself. Massively multiplayer Wing Commander, anyone? How about some co-operative Privateer? It's a game that combines twitch-action space combat with levels and experience points. It's an excuse to dust off those old flight sticks. You'll even be able to play as…

The invention relates to a cementable shaft prosthesis comprising a centering apparatus of plastic which can be pushed on at its distal shaft end and which forms a cavity to the distal shaft end, with a conical clamping connection existing between distal shaft end and the centering apparatus which permits a deeper sinking in of the distal shaft end into the cavity in the distal direction.
A centering apparatus for the distal end of a cementable prosthesis shaft which can be pushed onto the distal end and forms a cavity for the distal end in order that the distal end can sink in deeper into the cavity to avoid fissures in the hardened cement is shown in patent application GB-A-2 104 391. Plastics such as polyethylene are used as the material for the centering apparatus.
This proposed embodiment has the disadvantage that the distal end, which is formed conically, must be machined to within very narrow tolerances in its outer contour in order to ensure a clamping in the axial direction and a subsequent slipping when the axial force increases. This kind of clamping at the same time causes such a strong sealing action that a ventilation bore at the lowest point of the cavity is proposed. A further disadvantage consists in that thick shaft ends, which would be desirable for obtaining a uniformly thin cement jacket in the marrow chamber cavity, have large surface portions with a relatively large half cone angle of the surface to the shaft axis in the distal region. If a clamping with guide surfaces which lie closely in contact is provided in this region, large axial forces and ring stresses arise at a cement pouch which surrounds the shaft and the centering apparatus after the hardening of the bone cement due to the relatively large half cone angle in the event that the shaft sinks in further into the cavity.
The object of the invention is to improve the prosthesis and the centering apparatus in this regard. This is achieved in accordance with the independent claim 1 in that the distal shaft end has a conical bore in the proximal direction in which a spigot which is formed on at the centering apparatus in the cavity forms the clamping connection.
The invention has the advantage that the outer contour of the distal prosthesis end has no guiding function any longer and that the cavity of the centering apparatus can be held without cement through a weak line contact between its proximal circumferential edge and the surface of the shaft. A further advantage consists in the reliability of the clamping and positioning of the centering apparatus on the spigot, since the cone angle can be chosen freely and since a conical bore can be economically produced in the distal shaft end to within narrow tolerances.
Advantageous further developments of the invention result from the subordinate claims 2 to 10.
In the manufacture of the centering apparatus in an injection molding tool particularly narrow pairing tolerances result in the clamping region between the spigot and the conical bore, since the geometry of the spigot is likewise produced as a bore due to the shape inversion in the injection mold. The manufacture and the monitoring of the tolerances are thus simpler at both parts, shaft end and centering apparatus.
The half cone angle of the conical bore can be chosen between 0.5° and 2.5° depending on the material of the shaft and the centering apparatus and in accordance with the geometry of the spigot. In the case of a metallic shaft and a centering apparatus of plastic, for example of PMMA (polymethyl methyl acrylate), the half cone angle can lie between 1.2° and 1.6°.
If the spigot has two stages with different diameters and the graduation in relation to the axial distance is chosen such that it coincides with the half cone angle of the conical bore, then two axially spaced guiding and clamping zones arise during the pushing on of the centering apparatus which oppose a resistance force F in the axial direction corresponding to the friction and to the half cone angle between the conical bore and the spigot which increases over-proportionally with increasing dipping in of the shaft tip. A dipping in is practically possible only because the stages of the spigot deform radially inwardly. If the spacing of the stages is chosen such that at first only one stage is contiguous at the conical bore and if this stage can be more easily deformed radially, because for example it is formed of only a few ribs, then at first only a slight axial resistance force arises in the pushing on of the centering apparatus, which only increases much more strongly when the second stage is also radially inwardly deformed during the further dipping in of the distal shaft tip. This means that during the pushing on the centering apparatus holds itself on the shaft tip and develops a noticeable resistance when the centering apparatus has reached a predetermined position aligned with its spigot. The prosthesis shaft can then be introduced with the centering apparatus into a marrow chamber of a tubular bone which is filled with bone cement and is guided at its distal end by at least three fins of the centering apparatus.
The desired position of the centering apparatus is signalled in an even more marked way during the pushing on if the conical bore has a run-in cone with a somewhat larger half cone angle and the second stage is contiguous at this steeper cone and must first be radially deformed at this steeper cone for the further penetration into the conical bore. The cavity in the centering apparatus and the axial resistance force are dimensioned such that the distal shaft end can later dip in into the centering apparatus by several millimeters after the pushing on and cementing in without the jacket of the centering apparatus, which is enclosed by the bone cement, experiencing impermissible forces in the axial direction.
In a femur shaft prosthesis it is advantageous due to the medially lying femur head when in the introduction of the shaft in the marrow chamber cavity the centering apparatus supports the shaft towards the lateral by a fin. For this reason it is furthermore advantageous when a rotational securing which is independent of the dipping in depth and which permits a pushing on of the centering apparatus only when a fin is oriented laterally is provided between the shaft tip and the centering apparatus in the cavity. When the prefabricated centering apparatus itself consists of PMMA, a homogeneous cement pouch with the bone cement results after the cementing in of the prosthesis which permits a later sinking in of the shaft, without impermissible stresses arising in the cement pouch in the region of the distal shaft tip.
In the following the invention will be described with reference to exemplary embodiments. Shown are:
FIG. 1 schematically, a view of a femur shaft prosthesis with a centering apparatus;
FIG. 2 schematically an enlarged section of the shaft end of FIG. 1 with the centering apparatus;
FIG. 3 schematically a plan view of the centering apparatus of FIG. 2;
FIG. 4 schematically, greatly enlarged and exaggerated in the angles, a section of a spigot at the beginning of the lying in contact in a conical bore;
FIG. 5 schematically, the arrangement of FIG. 4 at the beginning of the lying in contact of a second stage in the conical bore;
FIG. 6 schematically, the arrangement of FIG. 5 on further introduction of the spigot;
FIG. 7 schematically, a further arrangement as in FIG. 2 in which the second stage first lies in contact at a run-in cone;
FIG. 8 schematically, a graph of the resistance force in the axial direction during the pressing in of a spigot; and
FIG. 9 schematically, an arrangement analogous to FIG. 5 in which the second stage lies as the first of the two in contact in the conical bore with a point P3.
The figures show a cementable shaft prosthesis 1 comprising a centering apparatus 2 of plastic which can be pushed on at its distal shaft end 3 and which forms a cavity 4 to the distal shaft end 3. Between the distal shaft end 3 and the centering apparatus 2 there exists a clamping connection which enables a deeper sinking in of the shaft end into the cavity in the distal direction. The clamping connection is achieved by a spigot 7 which is formed on at the centering apparatus 2 in the cavity 4 and which protrudes in into a conical bore 5 of the shaft end 3 in the proximal direction.
In the figures identical reference symbols are used for identical function features.
In FIG. 1 a femur shaft prosthesis 1 is provided at its distal shaft end 3 with a centering apparatus 2 which can be pushed on. The femur bone 21 is provided in its marrow chamber cavity 25 with a marrow chamber blocking 20 which seals against bone cement 19 which is filled in in liquid form. The prosthesis 1 and the centering apparatus are lowered together into the liquid bone cement 19 until a predetermined penetration depth has been reached. During the lowering the distal shaft end 3 is centered within the marrow chamber cavity 25 by fins 22, 24. In this, one fin 24 is oriented towards the lateral.
The centering apparatus 2 in FIGS. 2 and 3 has with its upper edge 26 only a weak line contact with the shaft end 3 in order to prevent an intrusion of liquid bone cement. The actual fixing takes place through a spigot 7 which is formed on in a cavity 4 at the centering apparatus 2 and which is clamped in a conical bore 5 which is provided in the proximal direction at the shaft end 3. For a metal shaft for example a conical bore 5 with a half cone angle 8 of 1.43° is provided. The spigot has a first stage with attached ribs 16, 17, 18 which are limited in the unstressed state to a diameter 10 which lies somewhat below the diameter 12 of a following second stage 11. The position of the spigot 7 in FIG. 2 corresponds to a desired pushing on position, in which the ribs 16, 17, 18 are already radially inwardly deformed to such an extent that a desired clamping force against drawing out is achieved. At the same time the second stage 11 is centered with its slightly larger diameter in a run-in cone 30 of the conical bore 5 and forms an additional and easily noticeable resistance against the further penetration of the spigot 7. Only at a substantially greater axial force of the shaft end 3 is the second stage 11 also radially inwardly deformed and the shaft end 3 can dip in deeper into the cavity 4 of the centering apparatus 2 against a predetermined resistance force. The cavity 4 and the conical bore 5 are dimensioned such that the shaft can dip in by a further several millimeters into the centering apparatus 2 against a higher resistance after the pushing on of the centering apparatus 2. This "jump" in the resistance has the advantage that the centering apparatus 2 is not pushed further onto the shaft during the guiding and lowering of the prosthesis shaft 1 in the liquid bone cement 19. In order to be able to place the centering apparatus on only when a fin 24 is oriented laterally, a recessed surface 27 which ends in a nose 32 is provided parallel to the shaft axis 31 at the shaft end 3. For this the centering apparatus has a suitable guiding surface 28 in the cavity 4 which prevents rotation.
An arrangement is shown in FIGS. 4, 5, 6 in which the run-in cone 30 does not contribute with its half cone angle 29 to the increase in the resistance force F in the axial direction. During the pushing on of the spigot 7, the first stage 9 with a point P1 at diameter 10 of the rib 17 first makes contact with the conical bore 5, whereas the axial distance 14 for a point P2 with diameter 12 of the second stage 11 is dimensioned such that the point P2 does not yet make contact with the conical bore 5. During the continuation of the pushing on movement the ribs 17 are radially inwardly deformed at point P1 and there arises a clamping and guiding zone 13 (FIG. 5) with a weakly increasing clamping force. Only when the second stage 11, which opposes a substantially greater resistance, is contiguous at the conical bore is a desired position for the pushing on achieved. The resistance force in the axial direction is so great that the shaft 1 and the centering apparatus are not pushed further together by the centering apparatus during the lowering of the shaft and its guide. In FIG. 6 the shaft 3 has moved in against a greater resistance force F into the cavity 4, with the resistance force F being dimensioned such that no impermissible tension stresses in the axial direction are produced by the centering apparatus 2 at the cement pouch 19 which surrounds it.
In FIG. 7, analogously to FIG. 5, the state at the end of the pushing on of the centering apparatus is shown. The spigot 7 has already been deformed at its first stage 9 at points P1′ and forms clamping and guiding zones 13, whereas points P2′ of the second stage 11 lie in contact at the run-in cone 30 with half cone angle 29. In the short steeper cone section, which must be passed through by the point P2′ until it lies in contact on the conical bore 5 with half cone angle 8, a jump 33 in the resistance force F takes place. A reliable axial positioning in the pushing on of the centering apparatus also lies in this region.
FIG. 8 shows a graph in which the resistance force F is plotted against a distance S in the axial direction. For an arrangement in accordance with FIG. 5 a steeper rise of the resistance force F takes place with the additional engagement of point P2. For an arrangement in accordance with FIG. 7, which corresponds to a characteristic curve in broken lines, a jump 33 in the force rise at first takes place with the additional engagement of a point P2′, and is followed by a steeper rise.
FIG. 9 shows a further arrangement in which at first the second stage 11, which is provided with ribs 17, comes with a point P3 into engagement with the conical bore 5, whereas the first stage with a point P4 still has a clearance to the conical bore 5. During the continuation of the placing on, in this case the rib 17 is first inwardly deformed in order to clamp the spigot 7. Only when the point P4 lies in contact at the conical bore 5 is a bend with steeper rise of the resistance force F produced in a continuation of the movement. Quite generally the magnitude of the axial resistance force can be defined by the shaping or, respectively, through the contour, the diameters 10, 12 and the axial spacing 14 of the two stages 9, 11, which determine their yielding in the radial direction, and through the size of the half cone angle 8.

Sara O'Keefe, Editorial Director of Corvus, bought the UK and Commonwealth rights to THE HEROD KILLINGS and an untitled second book by debut thriller writer Mark Roberts, from Peter Buckman at the Ampersand Agency. Peter Buckman has sold German rights to Rowohlt and Longanesi won Italian rights in a pre-empt. THE HEROD KILLINGS is the first in a gripping thriller series starring DCI David Rose.
Sara O'Keefe commented: 'This is a brilliantly dark, pulse-pounding thriller that blends elements of classic serial-killer storytelling with a touch of the occult. It is a very exciting acquisition for Corvus and will be a lead title for us in 2013'.

poor lonely salad fingers
"the ground sugar tastes rather queer in this area"
hahaha what a healthy breakfast salad fingers
well back to war sniff sniff ..... kick
I think that Salad Fingers was from the "Great War" and got mutated by a nuke or something.
He still has memory, but only on the great war.
I guess he found that house and decided to live in it.

Is that a bloodstain on the carpet? Last night when the Ferry docked in Port Hardy, at the northern end of Vancouver Island, I found […]
Category: North: KTM Summer of Adventure
Just how far North can you ride on a stock adventure bike and no dirt experience? Quite far it seems…
North: The KTM Summer of Adventure – 18: Prince Rupert to Port Hardy, BC
North: The KTM Summer of Adventure – 17: Stewart to Prince Rupert, BC
North: The KTM Summer of Adventure – 16: Telegraph Creek to Bell II, BC
North: The KTM Summer of Adventure – 15: Watson Lake, YT to Telegraph Creek, BC
So KTM, would now be a good time to mention that my off-road history could be measured in quantities prefixed with "mili"? Likely not, because the ride from Dease Lake to Telegraph has me debating subtleties of throttle control like never before. By the way KTM, the fuel injection is a tad jerky at low speed isn't it? Give there's a billion-foot drop to the left I'm all about control.

Fantastic Animation!
Fabulous animation! I find it hard to believe this is your first animation short! You have a lot of talent as an animator and as an artist. Everything moved together smoothly, and you had music and sound to match you movie well. Keep up the good work! =3
The Great Animators of Yore would be Proud
I love, love, love this short! The art is simplistic, but the cartoon as a whole have a very classic, Looney Tunes sort of feel to it as far as the gags and the story progression goes. Excellent work!!
And very well animated. =3
I love the art style of this short. The sounds also fit perfectly... I liked how there were no speaking parts. I think this made the character more expressive. And the simple storyline works perfect here. Great job. I'm looking forward to more of these.
Been a while since ive seen something good without ridiculous skills, so i thank you.

The Boy Who Loved Words
The Boy Who Loved Words
Schwartz & Wade Books, Hardcover, 9780375836015, 40pp.
Publication Date: March 23, 2006
In this "Parents' Choice" Gold Award winning book, Selig collects words, ones that stir his heart ("Mama" ) and ones that make him laugh ("giggle"). But what to do with so many "luscious" words? After helping a poet find the perfect words for his poem ("lozenge," "lemon," and "licorice"), he figures it out: His purpose is to spread the word to others. And so he begins to "sprinkle," "disburse," and "broadcast" them to people in need.
I grew up in Rhode Island, enjoying my new backyard where we grew one of everything a pea plant, a tomato plant, a gladiolus, etc. I loved being only minutes away from the ocean. Eating Johnny cakes and clams.
I was always terribly shy and spent a great deal of time observing people and the beauty around me, storing it up, for I never guessed that I d end up being a writer.
Now that I m an adult and a writer, I still feel like a child. In fact, I often feel like someone impersonating a grownup, so it s far easier for me to write for children than to write for adults.
Life is full of so many wonderful things happy, sad, amazing, puzzling, beautiful and ugly things. Writing helps me to figure out the world. I love the power of words and how powerful I feel when I use them the right way. I intensely value imagination and worry that many children have it knocked out of them as they grow up and are exposed to life, mass culture, and the media. I love using my imagination when I write. I feel I am speaking very directly to my children. To me, children are the best!

I found this on another site I hope it helps and if your unhappy with the idiots playing games in the comment sections then flag them if enough people complain they might find a way to stop them. Here is the review: By Bucherwurm "bucherwurm" (California United States) - See all my reviews This review is from: Penguin Classics, a Complete Annotated Listing (Paperback) This book is simply a catalogue of all 1300+ Penguin Classics books in print. They are listed by author with a short summary of the contents of each book. Mind you these are all books of classical literature ranging from Aquinas to Yeats; you won't find Danielle Steel in this catalog. It's a great way to discover books that you didn't know were in print. I spent over an hour browsing through it, and ended up buying several titles. What prompted me to write this review is that Penguin put out this catalog as a free giveaway. I just picked up mine today from a stack of them in my local bookstore. It just seemed strange that people are selling these books that are marked "Free" on the cover.
If you are from sunclan go to mint first result.
Can't these people find the appropriate site to discuss their role playing set up? Can someone please give us an actual review?
I just have to say, this looked interesting.
Someone please tell me if these books are about penguins!!!!!!!
Get your fantasy junk out of the reviews.
I agree i hate it when people post stuff about clans and warriors people sometimes need reviews real ones! Say you need to do a book report and you don't know if a books appropriet (sorry suck at spelling) for you and you get the sample and should read the reviews and people CAN'T KEEP PUTTING STUPID STUFF ABOUT CLANS while people might want actual reviews not some fantasy stuff im sorry warriors make a website or do it on a book about what you're about like say the Warrior series not saying you should or do it on a.place that has hardly any reviews
