“Coming from midwest, weather has always been an issue. While it may look sunny outside on most days, it might painfully cold. Presenting our weather based Internet of Things device - Now.”Title: still the same & simply useless Review: i said this before and am saying it again: this book is a waste of paper - let alone the energy it took to be produced.the content may serve the absolute beginner for maybe a few weeks - anyone searching for true information - for instance on such simple questions as how to authorize an ipod on several computers - is left in the dark. on top of that, 1/4th of the book is filled with additional purchase suggestions ('toys for your ipod'). not surprisingly, most of the index is also taken up by this backhanded advertising.unless you are looking for only the most basic information, save your money and go for another - any other! - guide. this book will become a dustcollector in no time; instead, the internet turned out to be a much better source...

It means that you are so kind, giving, caring, willing to help on pretty much anything. Helps me remember there are good people still out there, which helps me try and exhibit some of the same qualites, rather then just write people off.

 I know Shelby is gone...But, he can read this post in heaven.Konica Minolta Healthcare Americas, Inc. (Wayne, N.J., USA) is introducing new digital radiography (DR) solutions at RSNA 2022 that will continue to transform the clinical value of X-ray. In 2020, Konica Minolta Healthcare launched Dynamic Digital Radiography (DDR), and now the company is extending this advancement to the new KDR Flex Overhead X-ray System. Konica Minolta previously announced DDR on the Chiropractic Straight Arm and the mKDR Xpress Mobile X-ray System, which recently received US FDA 510(k) clearance for the DDR option. These new systems and the AeroDR Glassless family of flat panel detectors are being launched at the 2022 Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), November 27 – December 1, 2022.
Konica Minolta’s KDR Flex Overhead X-ray System is a next-generation, smart radiography system that delivers an array of workflow innovations in addition to incorporating DDR. The system automatically tracks and aligns the tube to the table or wall stand, facilitating precision in positioning. The KDR Flex Overhead X-ray System has the flexibility to be configured as a manual, semi-automated or fully automated system to optimize workflow, reduce operator fatigue and increase patient satisfaction. A powerful X-ray generator and Automatic Exposure Control further optimize image quality and help minimize patient dose. The result is a more effortless system operation that enhances both the technologist and patient experience.
Konica Minolta has shattered the glass ceiling with its latest innovation in wireless digital detectors. With the AeroDR Glassless Flat Panel Detectors from Konica Minolta, there is no glass substrate, just a thin film transistor (TFT), further decreasing the panel weight and, as important, reducing the distance between the scintillator and electronics for superior sensitivity and outstanding image quality. The AeroDR family of flat panel detectors is renowned for durability, a powerful seven-year power cell warranty and exceptional high definition resolution at 100 µm and 200 µm. AeroDR Glassless Flat Panel Detectors are available in Konica Minolta systems and retrofits to help facilities take advantage of a smart imaging solution for greater efficiency and optimal image quality.
With the mKDR Xpress Mobile X-ray System with DDR from Konica Minolta, clinicians can now capture anatomy in motion and observe physiological changes during respiration or swallow studies, right at the patient’s bedside or in the ER, OR, CCU or ICU. DDR adds significant clinical value to imaging performed at the point-of-care with an exam that is fast and versatile at a low radiation dose. DDR was initially introduced on the company’s acclaimed KDR Advanced U-Arm. DDR is a leap forward in DR technology that acquires individual images at high speed and low dose. The resulting cine loop enables clinicians to observe anatomical motion over time, enhancing diagnostic capabilities and providing clinicians with a way to visualize anatomy like never before.
AT RSNA 2022, Konica Minolta is offering live in-booth scanning with its brand new SONIMAGE MX1 Platinum Ultrasound System, a next-generation, compact point-of-care ultrasound system (POCUS) that delivers incredible detail resolution for superior image quality. Clinicians can hand carry the SONIMAGE MX1 Platinum System wherever it is needed most – at the bedside, in an exam room or surgery suite. The MX1 Platinum System leverages an advanced imaging algorithm that achieves improved resolution of ultrasound images while maintaining optimum frame rates. This algorithm improves image quality of the color and grayscale modes, delivering speckle reduction and applying a smoothing effect to reduce graininess in the image. The exceptional image quality at the point-of-care can help clinicians make better informed diagnoses and facilitate accurate interventions, giving them confidence in what they are seeing to make immediate decisions that enhance patient care.
Ar to them. And the worst thing of all: they know how to hide, and once you lose sight of them, you’re a prisoner in your own home. FOREVER.
I’ve always been afraid of spiders for as long as I can remember. I’ve been screeching, jumping up onto furniture, running out of rooms, bellowing for my dad to come save me. But not to kill the spider, never to kill the spider. I’m not a monster. Only to move it outside.
However, it has come to my attention that many of these home-invaders are coming into your home for a reason. They don’t survive very well outside. Putting them outside probably means that they will die anyway. So now, I feel guilty even about “compassionately” releasing them into the garden.
So what was I to do? It became a bit of a paradox. Can’t live with em, can’t live without em.
I needed to get to a point where I could happily be in the same room as a spider, or at least the same building (I have begun to move many spiders into a generally unused room in the house). The problem was, I never really thought I would get past my fear of spiders, and thought I was doomed to be terrorised by the mini beasts forever.
Until something happened.
Something happened that completely changed the way I interact with spiders. And that something? Alcohol.
A few years ago, I was drunk. It’s not unusual for me to be drunk, so the chances of me being drunk and the chances of a spider being in the room at the same time are generally pretty high. I’m not a mathematician but it’s probably as likely as Northern Rail Trains being on strike. I digress.
We all know the warnings about alcohol, how it changes your perception of things – particularly threats – and how it makes you a little bit more brave than you usually are.
Well, this is what has cured my fear of spiders. For once, this drunken stupidity was a good thing. There I was, drunk as a fool, ready to go to bed, and a spider suddenly appeared on the ceiling. And I wasn’t scared.
I even picked it up with my bare hands. I picked the spider up with my bare hands. And I moved it away from where I was going to sleep.
Ever since this event, I’ve realised that because I was able to do it, I should always be able to do it. Or, at least, to not be afraid. It’s kind of like that scene in Harry Potter where he sees someone performing a really strong patronus charm, deterring hundreds of dementors. And, when he goes back in time, and realises that the person was indeed himself, he was able to produce the strong patronus charm… because he knew he’d already done it. Does that make sense? It probably doesn’t. But we have to relate everything to Harry Potter these days. He’s the new Hitler.
So, my advice: increase the odds of you being drunk and in the presence of a spider. Be brave, seize the day, get close to the spider. And forever afterwards, you will realise, they ain’t so bad.
I still don’t like spiders. I would prefer them not to be in my presence. But they no longer strike fear in my heart. It’s kind of like passing an old enemy. We still desp
