An old brick has a natural cavity on one side, providing a cool daytime slug hiding place. Look under any you have around the garden and dispose of the slugs found sheltering. Purposely position a few to create slug shelters, and check daily. A brick also makes a handy squishing implement.
Q Angle of the Knee. The Q angle of the knee is a measurement of the angle between the quadriceps muscles and the patella tendon and provides useful information about the alignment of the knee joint.
On physical examination, check for the quadriceps angle, or Q-angle, which is the angle created between a line drawn from the center of the anterior superior iliac spine on the pelvis to the center of the patella and a second line from the center of the patella to the middle of the tibial tubercle.
