![]() ![]() Decrease of vertebral body bone mineral density after spinal fusion surgery was demonstrated because of biomechanical stresses, postoperative immobilization and mineral metabolism. In our case, osteoporotic compression fracture of instrumented vertebra was considered based on image examination, history of initial lumbar fusion surgery and history of falls. Instrumented spinal fusion represents the most common surgeries for various spinal disorders however, there have been only three documented case reports of compression vertebral fracture occurring within vertebra existing instrumentation or within the solid vertebral fusion. The plain x-ray and CT scan revealed satisfactory position of the internal fixation but massive leakage of bone cement into the canal at the L5-S1 level, which resulted in significant compression of the S1 nerve root (Fig. Bowel and bladder function remained normal and there were no difficulty evacuating or urinary incontinence. Hyporeflexia of the Achilles tendon was detected on the left side, but pathologic reflexes, superficial reflexes, and the upper limb neurologic examination were unremarkable. Neurologic examination evaluated the muscle strength of left lower extremity as grade 4/5 according to the British Medical Research Council (BMRC) scale. Physical examination revealed tenderness and percussion pain at the paravertebral and spinous processes of L5-S1 without restricted lumbar spine motion. The numerical rating scale (NRS) scores for pain were 8 to 9 at the moment of severe pain. The pain was severe and stabbing, and was aggravated by position changes. The patient was hospitalized at our institution again due to the progression of low back pain with radiation to the left thigh 1 week after PKP surgery. We present the rare reported case, to our knowledge, of epidural cement leakage after PKP at the segment of internal fixation and discuss the most likely etiologies and preventive measures for this condition. She improved remarkably and no neurologic deterioration was observed in the postoperative period during the one-year follow-up. Computed tomographic imaging revealed massive leakage of cement into the spinal canal at L5-S1, and therefore, surgical decompression and removal of epidural cement were performed carefully without causing a dural tear. The patient was admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital with complaints of muscle weakness and severe low back pain radiating to the left thigh 1 week after PKP of L5 due to an acute osteoporotic compression fracture. We describe an uncommon case of epidural leakage of bone cement in an 81-year-old woman who underwent posterior lumbar decompression and fusion from 元–5 4 years prior and had an unremarkable postoperative course. However, intraspinal cement leakage following PKP is a serious postoperative complication that can lead to morbidity and mortality. Percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) has become an important minimally invasive surgical technique for fracture stabilization and pain relief in patients with vertebral compression fractures.

Who was vice president george bush jr1/27/2024 ![]() Smith: But before that, didn’t you work in the Ford campaign in ’76?īush: I did. And, generally, my mother can’t contain herself and would’ve expressed herself openly had there been a problem. It may have for Dad, but he wouldn’t have told me and he never reflected any awkwardness. I thought we needed a military that was different from the Cold War structure and Rumsfeld had written about that and would be good at it. That was the primary focus of what I wanted my defense secretary to do. But I picked Don Rumsfeld because I thought he’d help transform the military. They may have bent over backwards to be nice to the son after having had animosity with the father. I got to know Connally in a different light. I ended up with relationships with people that had poor relationships with my dad, like Connally, for example. I’ve never really known whether that was true – that being that Don Rumsfeld engineered the situation where George Bush, in order to get confirmed as the CIA, had to renounce his basic right as a citizen, which is that he would not seek the vice presidency. But, no, I made my decision on what I thought was best for my administration, not based upon some kind of history between Dad and Rumsfeld. Actually, it didn’t make it awkward for them it gave them gist for the gossip. It made it awkward for some of the people who liked to gossip about that. Did it make it awkward when you decided to bring Rumsfeld into the cabinet?īush: Very interesting question. The reason I ask is because Nelson Rockefeller went to his grave convinced that all that was Don Rumsfeld’s doing. And there was a perception – not that the president was responsible – but because of the political climate at the time, that he was being deep-sixed in terms of his own political future. Your folks were in China and your dad was brought back to the CIA. A lot of people might dust that off today. The best political slogan I’ve ever heard was ‘Labels are for cans’. And then, of course, when your dad went into Congress in ’66 – which, by the way, was a brilliant campaign. I heard President Ford talk with real admiration about your grandfather. Before you were president, there was a long-running relationship here. Ford Oral History Project on July 26, 2010 by Richard Norton Smith. President Bush was interviewed for the Gerald R. George Walker Bush was the 43 rd President of the United States.

The Alliance learns that the Empire has been constructing a second Death Star under the supervision of the Emperor. Obi-Wan Kenobi's Force spirit tells Luke the truth about Anakin's fall to the dark side, that Leia is his twin sister, and that he must face Vader again to finish his training and defeat the Empire. Yoda confirms that Darth Vader is Luke's father, the former Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, and reveals that there is another Skywalker, before passing away and becoming one with the Force.

While writing the shooting script, Lucas, Kasdan, Marquand, and producer Howard Kazanjian spent two weeks in conference discussing ideas to construct it. The production team relied on Lucas' storyboards during pre-production. Steven Spielberg, David Lynch and David Cronenberg were considered to direct the project before Marquand signed on as director.

Keep in mind that even though V8 drinks are organic, v8 is not keto-friendly. It has a minimal net carbohydrate content, with around 1.77g of net carbohydrates per 100g serving. This is due to the body entering a condition of ketosis, in which it burns fat for fuel rather than carbs.Īnd since iceberg lettuce has a very low carb count it’s perfect for a keto diet. To stick to the keto diet plan, carbohydrate intake should be limited to 20-50g daily, based on individual needs. This has been proven to offer a variety of health advantages, including losing weight and better control of blood sugar. The ketogenic approach is a diet high in fats and low in carbohydrates.

Bills vs titans play by play1/26/2024 They rank 27th in rush defense DVOA, per Football Outsiders, and 23rd in Adjusted Line Yards allowed. The news doesn't get much better for the Titans when it comes to the ground game. He hasn't even gotten much going in the scrambling department yet, as much of his damage has come on designed running plays. ( Harold Landry has been much better and much more consistent.) Allen has actually done quite well under pressure this year, though, totaling 505 yards, five touchdowns, and no interceptions. Tennessee has pressured opposing passers on a slightly above-average share of dropbacks this season, which is a good sighting after their offseason spending spree, but maybe not so good considering Bud Dupree hasn't even been one of their better pass rushers. The Titans' best hope is to get pressure on Allen and force him into mistakes. Tennessee's linebackers (particularly David Long) have been vulnerable in coverage this season as well, which could lead to another big game for emerging tight end Dawson Knox. Diggs ranked third in the NFL in air yards but only 17th in receiving yards through the first five weeks of the season. Perhaps this week will bring the Stefon Diggs blow-up game that has seemingly been on its way all season. (Rookie Elijah Molden has given up a perfect 158.3 passer rating on throws into his coverage, albeit on only eight such throws.) That's a 104.6 passer rating, and he hasn't been close to the most friendly target for opponents. ![]() Jenkins has yielded 22 completions on 32 targets, giving up 267 yards and a score. Opposing teams have been intent on picking on Janoris Jenkins, targeting him more often than all but 10 other cornerbacks league wide. The Titans have allowed opponents to complete 13 of 21 passes for 506 yards, four touchdowns, and just one interception on throws of at least 20 air yards. Tennessee checked in 25th in Football Outsiders' pass defense DVOA heading into Week 6, and 30th against deep passes. That's particularly bad news for the Titans, who have been extremely flammable through the air. Only four other players have more than four of these completions on the entire season. (Only Dak Prescott's 149.3 is higher, and he's attempted less than half as many throws as Allen, going 4 of 6 for 163 yards and two touchdowns.) Allen completed four of these passes against the Chiefs alone. On those 14 plays, he has nine completions, which have accounted for 375 yards and two touchdowns, per Tru Media. Nobody in the league has attempted more throws of 30-plus air yards than Allen, who has lofted 14 of them. Allen excels on those throws, but what he really excels on are the even deeper throws. ![]() Most NFL tracking services consider "deep" throws to be those that travel 20 or more yards down the field in the air.

Fly by jing vs lao gan ma1/26/2024 During the holiday season, they come out with mini tester sets. ![]() I love their packaging, as well as the Zhong sauce. You can find these chili sauces wherever Chinese ingredients are sold. Its less crispy than a Lao Gan Ma but much more spicy. Lao Gan Ma S&B Crunchy Garlic Chili Oil Fly by Jing. Read trustworthy reviews of Fly by Jing. There is a little bit more of the crunch with the crisps, and you get these big soft peanut (?) like things in the fried chili oil that I don’t find adds anything to the condiment. Fly by Jing creates flavorful Sichuan spices and sauces to pair with frozen dumplings made from natural and fresh ingredients. Main ingredients: Sunflower oil, chile flakes, garlic, onion, Tamari sauce, sesame seeds. ![]() I’ve tried the fried chili oil and I can only say that it is primarily a texture difference for me. Bowlcuts chili crisp is filled with nutty sesame seeds and has a rich flavor thats both very spicy and slightly sweet, complementing desserts like ice cream and fruit. Lao Gan Ma's chili crisp is another cult-favorite. How can I have survived pasta shortages, dairy shortages, egg shortages, and frozen veggie shortages, but my downfall would be spicy chili crisps?!īut it might have just been a shipment or distributor delay, because this past weekend, they restocked on the spicy chili crisps and all was good. Chili crisp isn't an exact Sriracha replacement, but it has a lot of the same flavors: heat, sweet and umami. HONG KONG In many kitchens in China youll likely find a bottle or three of Lao Gan Ma, a crisp chilli oil infused with a potent mix of dried chilli peppers, fried. I’ve been eating this stuff like crazy mixed with noodles, while I’m working from home, so I moved into a mini-freak out. CHIPS There are almost always potato chips in my apart- ment, whether that means an iconic blue-and-white canister of Bonilla a. Texture-wise, Lao Gan Ma is the best chili crisp brand. Texture-wise, Lao Gan Ma is the best chili crisp. Fly by Jing tastes awesome its just that a few other chili crisp brands taste even better. Found plenty of the fried chili oil and the chili with black bean variants, but no spicy chili crisps on their shelves. While this original classic chili crisp didn't entirely take the top spot, it's still one of the best on the market after all these years. Here are some short introductions of the. I finished my jar and walked to 3 local Asian markets in my 'hood – not one jar of spicy chili crisps to be found. My husband and I tasted 3 different brands of chili oil crisps, and tried to figure out which one is our favorite. I had a panic that we would have a spicy chili crisp shortage 2 weeks ago.

Nick schwartz smoke weed all day1/26/2024 ![]() It’s no major shock that famous comedy actor Seth Rogen is also a massive stoner. Turner has also been spotted on an Instagram Live stream seemingly taking hits from a Weed Vape Pen. Turner revealed at a Comic-Con 2018 panel that her and Maisie Williams, also known as Arya Stark, used to have regular sleepovers where they’d get high and watch funny videos. She’s not the only stoner in Game of Thrones, either. However, you might not have known that this prominent English actress is also a big fan of marijuana. Sophie Turner is probably better known as Sansa Stark, the ruthless Queen of the North in Game of Thrones. Douglas was approached by DeVito who asked do you smoke weed? before splitting a joint with him, and the rest is history. What’s more, Michael Douglas once revealed that the first time he met Danny DeVito was when they shared a joint on the beach in 1967. The man known for movies such as One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Batman Returns, and Matilda, and of course the hit sitcom Always Sunny In Philadelphia, was once a long-haired, weed-loving hippie back in the ‘60s. One celebrity stoner you might not have suspected is Danny DeVito. When things got tense between Snoop Dogg and Tupac’s entourages, Tupac broke the tension by passing a blunt to Snoop Dogg. ![]() Here’s something you might not have known- while he was no stranger to smoking joints, Tupac gave Snoop his first blunt back in 1993 at the ‘Poetic Justice’ wrap party. He also has a podcast where he gets high with celebrity buddies. Not only does he boast many songs referencing his weed use, but he also has his own brand of marijuana products, known as Leafs by Snoop. We’re not telling you anything you don’t know when we say that Snoop Dogg is a huge cannabis connoisseur. Here are 20 great examples of celebrity stoners. Not to mention the many celebrities who smoke weed, all the way from the early ‘90s to the present day. Now that the attitude towards pot is now more accepting than ever, anyone from your college buddy to your elderly next-door neighbor can be a proud stoner. Marijuana is a pastime that everyone can enjoy.

Microsoft office for ipad support1/26/2024 ![]() Homeįirst, there’s the Home screen, which has the following features: If you do choose to install Office, here’s what you can expect. We asked Microsoft for a full list of features in the Office app that aren’t available in the individual Word, Excel, and PowerPoint apps. If people are happy with those and excited about them, we absolutely want them to continue using them.” We’re not getting rid of those, killing those, or telling people they need to change their workflow. “There are hundreds of millions of downloads of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint as individual apps on Android and iOS. “There’s definitely no disruption we want to cause,” Howard said. We asked Microsoft 365 general manager Rob Howard if the three will be killed off, and he said no. Additionally, businesses now only need to deploy and update one app. After all, the Office app does take up less space than the three apps. You can thus uninstall the other three apps if you’d like. Other than that, all the functionality of the existing mobile apps is there. The only functionality that the standalone Word, Excel, and PowerPoint mobile apps have that Office doesn’t yet have is optimized tablet support on Android and iOS. On Android, Office gained a bunch of tablet optimizations. On iOS, you can now create a Presentation from images and use Dark Mode. On both Android and iOS, Office now includes templates to help you create new documents, spreadsheets, and presentations, as well as support for third-party cloud storage services Box, Dropbox, Google Drive, and iCloud. But that’s not the only reason to adopt it - Microsoft’s push to roll out nifty AI features in Office is especially noticeable in this launch.īetween public preview and general availability, the Office app has gained several enhancements. “The idea behind the Office app is to give our users a single place from which they can access all their relevant content,” Office product manager Nithya Sampathkumar told VentureBeat. Microsoft has found that most users and businesses want to use the Office app as a hub or starting point for all their document work. When the company launched the new Office mobile app as a public preview in November, “tens of thousands of people” rushed to try it. Microsoft has over 200 million monthly active Office 365 business users and over 37 million Office 365 consumer subscribers. You can use Office for free, and if you sign in with a Microsoft Account or connect a third-party storage service you can access and store documents in the cloud. You can download the app now for Android phones and tablets (limited support) from Google Play and for iOS from Apple’s App Store (iPhone-only, iPad support is coming later). The company today also announced new features coming to the app this spring: Word Dictation, Excel Cards View, and Outline to PowerPoint. The unified app means you no longer need to download, install, and switch between the individual Word, Excel, and PowerPoint apps. ![]() Microsoft today launched Office for Android and iOS in general availability. For some reason when I clicked back into the iPad word app this meant that the mendeley cite while you write bar came up straight away.Are you looking to showcase your brand in front of the brightest minds of the gaming industry? Consider getting a custom GamesBeat sponsorship. There was an error message came up on mine that meant that I had to toggle to ‘open in word online’ in the Microsoft add in download page and this opened a Mendeley document in word on the browser. Mendeley doesn’t have an iPad app so you just add to the library when logged in on the browser instead or I might try Paperpile for this. ![]() If you download ‘Mendeley Cite’ word add-in on the browser it will allow you to reference from your Mendeley library. I think I just managed to figure this out myself. These features are very important for me as I am in university and they need us to use specific Referencing styles that often require in-text citations, so I need to know whether it would be better for me to find an alternative device which supports the feature. Similar problem for adding a bibliography.Ĭan someone confirm whether or not the Reference features are present on the iPad or not, and if it is there (and I somehow missed it), where can I find it? I could not find the feature that lets you add in-text citations (by filling the necessary details of the source as per Reference style), which is available on the Mac version, but doesn’t seem to be visible anywhere on the iPad app, including the ‘Insert’ tab. Is it completely impossible to add in-text citations and a bibliography on the iPad version of Microsoft Word? Even though there is no References tab on the iPad app (that I’m using through an Office 365 account)? |
