N-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA) is commonly used liquid embolic agent in the endovascular treatment of cerebrovascular and peripheral vascular pathologies. ĭolichoectatic arteries and fusiform aneurysms are related to arteriopathies and connective tissue diseases, andjust 2% of the intracranial aneurysms are located in the vertebral-posterior inferior cerebellar arteries (PICAs). These lesions are commonly mistaken for aneurysms or arteriovenous malformations. The pure arterial malformation (PAM) lesion has been recently described as a vascular pathology characterized by the sole presence of coiled, sometimes ectaticor arterial loops.

There were no postoperative strokes in the treated PICA territory, although there was 1 contralateral PICA-territory stroke of unclear etiology without clinical sequelae. The average number of devices that spanned the PICA ostium was 1.77 (range, 1-3), with no immediate PICA occlusions. Thirteen patients with vertebral or vertebrobasilar artery aneurysms were treated in the study period, of whom 4 presented with subarachnoid hemorrhage. Patency of the PICA was evaluated immediately after stent placement and on follow-up angiography. Demographic and procedural factors associated with stent placement were recorded. Patients were identified who had vertebral or vertebrobasilar artery aneurysms and who were treated by placing a flow-diverting stent across the PICA ostium. The purpose of this study is to determine the medium-term rate of PICA patency and risk factors for occlusion after such aneurysm treatment. The rate of PICA occlusion after flow-diverting stent placement for vertebral and vertebrobasilar artery aneurysms is not known. ![]() ![]() ![]() Sand, road salt and gravel can also damage rubber wiper blades. Sunlight and oxygen are the big aging factors, but another source of damage is ice, especially if you’re living in an area where scraping windshields is a daily chore before driving. But after testing eight different models side-by-side, it seems clear that the premium-replacement market is using basically the same rubber on most models. ![]() In theory, better rubber means better wiper life. They have installation instructions for a “Multifunction” wiper, but if you want to buy it you’ll have to search for your car model on Amazon, or figure out a comparable model AERO has an Amazon listing for. The AERO wipers for J-hook cars are easy to find, but if you have some other type of attachment system you’re in for some detective work if you want to buy these wipers. Of note is the Aero website: Aero has a vehicle-compatibility widget, but it has been broken every time we checked. They don’t tell straight up “this is for cheapskates” or “these should be as good as you can get,” you’re mostly left to infer that after looking at prices on a retailer listing. Most parts catalogs are fairly easy to use, but bigger manufacturers like Bosch have four or five different styles of wipers that will fit your car. For most cars on the road, you’ll only have to look up the lengths you need when buying. Rain-X won points here for selling a wiper with a near-universal adapter. We tested on a car with a J-hook connector, which is fairly common, but even if you have a wiper arm that everyone makes adapters for it’s best to check with a parts catalog for the correct length before you buy your wipers. We also checked each brand specifically for wipers compatible with the VW Beetle, Land Rover, and Honda Civic. We left all eight sets of wipers out in the sun for an additional 20 weeks to see what would happen to the rubber. Wear and tear on a wiper’s thin rubber blade is caused by several factors baking in the sun’s ultraviolet-spectrum rays is the most damaging, followed by oxidation from the air. After that break-in period, we tested each wiper to see if it still held up well and wiped away water cleanly. We used each of the eight wipers on a Toyota Corolla for approximately four weeks of testing in real-world conditions in southern California. We selected a price range from $6 to $25 in order to compare premium and budget picks across a variety of popular types. Streaks and noise are the most common complaints, which could result from dirt, but they’re also signs that wipers don’t fit a windshield well. The negative scores on popular wipers (there are always negative reviews) pointed to some consistent problems that cause frustration. We specifically looked for high overall scores to test the best blades against each other. We checked out all the top picks from the Wirecutter review, as well as some alternates they mentioned but didn’t test.įinally, we went to Amazon and other retailers to find the top-rated and most-purchased wiper blades. Wirecutter has picked up where Consumer Reports left off their comparison review is the only one we found that actually attempts to rank wipers against each other. The more prestigious your car, the more likely enthusiasts are to recommend buying replacements from the dealership.Ĭonsumer Reports used to run tests of different wipers across their extensive fleet of test vehicles, but they gave up trying to find “better” wipers and now simply recommend frequent replacement. ![]() Many enthusiasts comment that their vehicles don’t work well with universal-fit wipers bought from the auto-parts store or gas station. The few reviews we found presented mostly anecdotal evidence: basically, people put new wiper blades on their cars, and they’re happy, unless the blades don’t fit.īad fit can lead to streaks or even gaps in wiper coverage, so finding wipers that could match the fit of factory-original wipers was at the top of our checklist. We spent days combing the web for clear indications of what makes a superior wiper. If you have a windshield that common wipers won’t fit well, the Bosch – Icon line features different wiper curvatures that should help prevent fit-related problems. The Rain-X install bracket provides near-universal compatibility, which makes buying the right blades much easier. The Rain-X – Latitude wins our pick for best windshield wiper. After a full year of testing eight top-rated windshield wipers in the rain and sun on a Toyota Corolla, we concluded that most wiper brands give you basically the same performance. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Going Paperless In The Office With doFormsĭoForms is a one-stop-shop for all your paperless office and business digitization needs.

This became a problem when adding the CGI Jabba since his tail would be in the way. Īt one point of the original scene, Ford walks behind Mulholland. The scene was polished further for the 2004 release on DVD, improving Jabba's appearance with advancements in CGI techniques. Letteri stated that the new scene consisted of five shots that took over a year to complete. Joseph Letteri, the visual effects supervisor for the Special Edition, explained that the ultimate goal of the revised scene was to make it look as if Jabba the Hutt was actually on the set talking to and acting with Harrison Ford with the crew looking like they had merely photographed it. He also replaced the English dialogue with Huttese, a fictional language created by sound designer Ben Burtt. Lucas revisited the scene in the 1997 Special Edition release of A New Hope, restoring the sequence and replacing Mulholland with a CGI version of Jabba the Hutt. The CGI Jabba was further polished in the 2004 version. The uncompleted scene, removed from the original version of A New Hope, was included in 1997 version to feature the CGI version of Jabba the Hutt, replacing Mulholland. Nevertheless, Lucas decided to leave the scene out of the final film on account of budget, time constraints, and because he felt that it did not enhance the film's plot. The scene was meant to connect Star Wars to Return of the Jedi and explain why Han Solo was imprisoned at the end of The Empire Strikes Back. Lucas planned to replace Mulholland in post-production with a stop-motion creature. When filming the scene between Han Solo and Jabba in 1976, Lucas employed Irish actor Declan Mulholland to stand in for Jabba the Hutt, wearing a shaggy brown costume. The original script to Star Wars describes Jabba as a "fat, slug-like creature with eyes on extended feelers and a huge ugly mouth", but Lucas stated in an interview that the initial character he had in mind was much furrier and resembled a Wookiee. His name has entered common parlance as being synonymous with negative qualities such as morbid obesity, corruption, and corporate greed.Ĭoncept, creation, and portrayal Episode IV: A New Hope However, his appearance as a CGI versus as a puppet has been disputed by many, with most being disappointed in his CGI, but applauding his look as a puppet. Jabba has received generally positive reviews from critics. ![]() Outside of the main films, Jabba first appears in the Marvel comics with the appearance of a slim humanoid with a walrus-like face. While Luke Skywalker comes to rescue them, Leia chokes Jabba to death by wrapping the chain connected to her around his neck. Later, Princess Leia comes to save Han but is captured by Jabba, who turns her into a slave. Boba Fett captures Han Solo, Darth Vader freezes him, and after Boba Fett delivers him Jabba puts Han Solo on display in his palace. He places a bounty on smuggler Han Solo, sending several bounty hunters to capture him. He is obese and often exemplifies his characterizations of lust and greed by having slave alien girls in his throne room. In the films, Jabba is a powerful crime lord on the planet Tatooine, who is of the Hutt species. The character is a large slug-like creature based on annelid worms and originally designed as an apelike figure. He also appears in the prequel movie The Phantom Menace. ![]() ![]() Jabba was later added into the film as a CGI character when it was re-released in Special Edition in 1997. He was originally supposed to first appear in Star Wars (1977) as a stop motion character with Declan Mulholland as his stand-in. Created by George Lucas, Jabba is voiced by Larry Ward with several puppeteers inside a one-ton puppet portraying him in Return of the Jedi.

I’m not quite sure what’s next,” he said. But with the loss to Mayweather fresh and the whiskey bottle nearby, it was no time for guarantees. McGregor has previously told White that he’d like to fight again this year and he made passing reference Saturday night to a possible third battle against Nate Diaz. He likely earned as much as $100 million for 10 rounds of boxing Saturday, dwarfing anything the UFC could pay him for a single fight. While McGregor surely understands his odds will always be better in the octagon, he also knows his UFC paydays could have a ceiling. “Right now, I’m a free agent … We’ll see what’s next, but I’m open.” I’m sure there are options that will present themselves in the boxing game,” McGregor said. “I have many options in mixed martial arts. He might not have won the fight, but McGregor earned the respect of some skeptics from the boxing world - and certainly performed enough well to elicit more boxing suitors. He absorbed big shots and put up a respectful fight until his stamina waned and Mayweather pounced in the later rounds. While MMA is clearly his strong suit, McGregor did show that he can be formidable in a boxing ring, capable of landing punches against one of the best defensive fighters ever. McGregor would make no guarantees about his future, but he said repeatedly that he’s not taking anything off the table.

He made clear that he thinks McGregor’s focus should return to its roots. With last week’s failed drug test for light-heavyweight champion Jon Jones last week and the UFC’s top draw, McGregor, focused on boxing all summer, White is suddenly in desperate need of stars. Mayweather reiterated his intentions to never fight again, so most of the post-fight curiosity surrounded McGregor’s future. ![]() 16, and the UFC is eager for fight fans to talk about MMA.

This (stuff) doesn’t happen all the time.” “You got to have the right people in the right place at the right time. “It takes two very special people in the right place at the right time to do the freakish kind of numbers and the water-cooler talk and all the things that this fight had,” said UFC President Dana White. There will be no rematch and the two sports will likely go back to tending their own fan bases and own interests. For now, the unique pairing of McGregor and Mayweather appears to be a one-off event. And UFC officials are eager to get back in the mixed martial arts business full-time. Boxing enjoyed a good night and has other big dates on the 2017 calendar. Mayweather and McGregor are still beyond rich. Conor McGregor speaks to the press while holding a bottle of whiskey in Las Vegas on Aug. With the fight over, a 10th-round technical knockout for Mayweather, the fighters and their respective sports immediately started processing the actual ramifications of the bout. ![]() There was never a doubt about just what was the driving force for Saturday’s showdown and the motivating factor that lured a UFC champion to step into a boxing ring against one of the best boxers of all time. “The check is alright,” McGregor chuckled. Seated a couple of feet away, Mayweather, suddenly chummy after weeks of schoolyard name-calling, softly told him: the money. The questions started coming and someone asked McGregor about the differences between boxing and mixed martial arts.

Space is provided right in the book for you to draw each lesson but I chose to use a separate pad of drawing paper. He also recommends tracing around your thumb or pinky finger for certain angles. Other “tools” the author suggests are things you’ll readily have on hand such as a coin or a cup to trace around, or a credit card or folded piece of paper for measuring. I also found that a mechanical stick eraser works great for erasing in small areas.
