![]() Despite some missteps, Optimus Primal was able to free Cybertron from Megatron's reign and bring about a new age for Cybertron, albeit with the cost of his life. They soon met the Oracle, who reformatted the Maximals into technorganic forms and entrusted Optimus Primal with the task of defeating Megatron and bringing about an evolution of the planet and the species into the technorganic. When they arrived, they found the planet to be desolate and conquered by Megatron. However, Megatron prematurely freed himself, and he arrived at Cybertron before the Maximals. Despite his nemesis's numerous machinations, the Predacons were defeated and Megatron brought back to Cybertron. Optimus Primal was soon reborn in a Transmetal body and was later granted a more powerful body after taking Optimus Prime's spark into his body to foil Megatron's plans to change history. The planet was revealed to be Earth in the past, putting the conflict in a vital context. The two forces soon became embroiled in an "experiment" by the mysterious Vok, and Primal gave his life to stop the destruction of the Maximals by the aliens' Planet Buster. There, he and his Maximal crew scanned beast modes and battled Megatron's criminal band of Predacons in what the Maximal dubbed the " Beast Wars". When he received an alert about a fugitive Predacon ship, the Darksyde, he had the Axalon pursue it through a transwarp portal, eventually ending up on a primitive planet. Optimus Primal was a minor Maximal officer of little note who commanded the Axalon. Optimal Optimus toy bio He considered Bantor his first choice for recon or demolition missions. Optimus Primal's transformation into Optimal Optimus was due to exposure to a "nebulous entity". Bonecrusher Optimus Primal was "changed into a mighty, metal gorilla by the planetary destruction device," and "has a built-in, rocket-powered hoverboard that lets him hang ten on the air-waves of the Beast Wars world!" Transmetal Optimus Primal toy bio Tigatron He also tried to lighten up Bonecrusher's violent demeanor, if only to keep the poor guy from overheating. Tigatron was appointed by Primal to be reconnaissance for the northern polar sector.

This drone got safety features in-built to help offset any risk in your UAV. ![]() Yes, that is 30 minutes flight time to a newbie, who usually sees only about 5 to 10 mins of action at other drones.Īnd while it does not have a collision avoidance feature, it does come with a sturdy 360 prop guard to soften the strike should it crashes. For a starter, the image resolution is a real delight that even professionals will love it.Īlso, the Mavic Mini’s 30-minute flight time helps you attain flying safely in longer distances. It does derive a few of the features and power of the other versions in the Mavic line.įor capturing those long-range videos and photos, the Mavic Mini contains a 12 MP / 2.7K camera onboard, with a three-axis gimbal to more balance. However, do not let the sizing trick you. It weighs just a paltry 249 grams and is no heavier or bigger than your typical smartphone. It means you may enter FPV mode using a lag-free, smooth feed. The 4 km maximum range also is the max range of the high-definition video transmission. Also, the included DJI Smart Controller makes it extremely easy to handle the drone. Overall, it turns for a more secure long-range flying experience. Of course, security mainstays, for example, Auto Return, are here. It enables the aircraft to change in between 5.8 GHz and 2.4 GHz frequencies to receive the best possible signal. It is among the few quads in the marketplace that can prevent obstacles in every direction, an essential feature for ultra-long-range trips.Īnd to further enhance signal quality, it comes with a Live Auto-Switching function.

Peter, along with much of his Social Circle, was present at the Bugle when it was cleaned up by Phil Coulson and Doctor Octopus. Their mission failed, Spider-Man then left the two to take care of his everyday life. ![]() However, the time that was wasted by their encounter with Venom gave Goblin enough time to escape with the Cosmic Brick. After working their way upwards, the three managed to subdue Venom by exploiting the symbiotes' weakness to sound and fire. Turning their attention away from Osborn and instead on escaping the lower labs, the three encountered Venom, who had manage to pervert the lower labs by infesting it with other Symbiotes, infecting both the environment and the Oscorp Scientists who worked down there. However, at that point Goblin triggered a trap door, sending them down to the lower levels of Oscorp labs. The three made their way through the elevator shaft, meeting with Goblin again. After getting through the security lockdown the three engaged Goblin in combat, resulting in Goblin destroying a nearby elevator shaft to hinder their progress. The three pursued Goblin, working their way through the Oscorp labs until Goblin triggered Oscorp's security systems, shutting down various parts of the lab and turning any nearby scientists hostile against the three. With Goblin having been tracked by Hawkeye and Black Widow to Oscorp, Spider-Man rendezvoused with them to retrieve the brick, the three were attacked by Green Goblin. The trio pursued Doc Ock to Times Square, the three defeated him on combat, only for the brick he was holding to be retrieved by the Green Goblin. Upon Doc Octopus storming through the Daily Bugle office, Peter decided to help Captain America and Mister Fantastic pursue him.

This statement so powerfully embraces a culture of inclusiveness and builds a natural sense of belonging for any human being anywhere. Kanian Pungundranar wrote a verse starting with "Yaadhum Oore Yaavarum Kelir" - A literal translation of this statement would mean "All the world my home, all the people my kin". ![]() Hart, a Tamil scholar and retired Professor of Tamil Language at the University of Berkeley, California, when talking about Kural, says, "There is not a facet of human existence that is not explored and illuminated by this great literature." Researchers believe this was written somewhere between 2nd century B.C to 8th century A.D. Kural is a secular ethics books, called as the Scripture of the world. Thiruvalluvar is a poet philosopher who wrote Thirukkural (also known as Kural). This, of course, was also famously said by Kanian Poongondranar.Tamil poets have brought messages for the universal brotherhood and global harmony in their classics. As they say in Tamil, theethum nandrum pirar thara vara. Anything good or bad happening to one is because of oneself. Tamil Nadu cannot blame anybody else but itself for this disturbing state of affairs. In the event, the state is now being seen by outsiders as being conceited and petulant. Tamil Nadu politicos are feeding this tendency, especially among the youth, who are encouraged to be insular and xenophobic, and think that the rest of the world is ranged against them. The state also suffers from a heightened sense of self-importance and sense of victimhood. It reflects a disturbing lack of maturity. But rather than presenting its case cogently and cohesively, Tamil Nadu acts extremely emotional like a child whose toy has just been taken away. There are issues that the Tamil Nadu people can feel aggrieved about with the Centre. Of late, there is this worrying tendency in Tamil Nadu to protest anything from the Centre. If you don’t want him to work to carry out his duties, he is not the loser, the state and its people are. And he is here in the state on official work. ![]() He is the democratically elected Prime Minister of the country. For whatever reason, you cannot keep shouting Go back.Īfter all, Modi is not coming to Tamil Nadu for his personal work. But there has to be a purpose to any campaign. It is not a rule that all should take the side of the Prime Minister or the Central government at all times. They are not against any policy of the Centre. There is one particular agenda to the shameful event. There is nothing specific to this senseless campaign. The people behind the motivated campaign of #GoBackModi are nothing more than troublesome twats as they resort to this every time the Prime Minister visits the state. But when the boy keeps repeating his act, he will be seen as brattish bully. To start off, it can be seen as a show of rousing bravura. That is how democracy works.īut that result of the NDA has made many in the state feel like the boy in class who stands up to the teacher’s authority. Well, the state voted overwhelmingly in favour of the alliance that was pitted against the NDA. It is no secret that there is a discernible anti-BJP mood in Tamil Nadu. What is that those who were trying to garner the headlines with that horrendous hashtag want to prove? What is the purpose of this keyboard protest? Today too, after landing in Chennai to attend the convocation function of IIT Madras, the Prime Minister talked of his reference to the immortal line of Poongondranar and also of the hoary heritage of Tamil as it is one of the oldest languages in the world.Įven if one were to discount Modi’s reference to the Sangam era poet’s words as done for political effect to douse the fire of controversy that had engulfed the state of Tamil Nadu after Union home minister Amit Shah’s loaded speech that Hindi can be one unifying language of India, still some slack should be cut for the Prime Minister, especially for highlighting the greatness of Tamil at the global stage.Īs it happened, rather than being grateful to the Prime Minister for invoking Tamil, a section of Tamil Nadu has got down to trend on Twitter platform the churlish hashtag: #GoBackModi. The point of that line is universal brotherhood and love. Last week, during his speech at the United Nations, Prime Minister Narendra Modi recalled the resonant words of Tamil poet Kanian Poongondranar, “yaadhum oore, yaavarum kelir”, which means “we belong to all places, and to everyone”. The objective of this study was to determine the association between surgical management of odontoid fractures and in-hospital mortality and complications in a large multi-center cohort of geriatric patients. In this study we conducted a retrospective analysis using data from the American College of Surgeons (ACS) Trauma Quality Improvement Program (TQIP). While most previous studies have used data gathered at a single institution, few have examined a multi-center cohort 4, 17. In contrast others have advocated that non-operative management is an acceptable treatment option despite lower rates of osseous union 11, 18. A prospective study comparing surgical fixation with non-operative treatment found a trend toward lower mortality in patients treated surgically 21. Previous retrospective studies have found surgical treatment of geriatric odontoid fractures to be associated with lower mortality at 30 days when compared to non-operative treatment 17, 18, 19, 20. Surgery, however, is associated with high peri-operative risks given the prevalence of poor bone health and medical comorbidities in an elderly population 14, 15, 16. Non-operative treatment is associated with a risk of fibrous non-union and high 1-year mortality 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13. ![]() Given the rapid expansion of this population and this high incidence of odontoid fractures, geriatric spine fractures have been described as an emerging health crisis 6.ĭespite the increasing frequency of these fractures there remains uncertainty about the optimal management strategy 7. The number of individuals over 65 years of age in the United States is expected to increase faster than any other age group to over 70 million in the next decade 5. Surgical management of geriatric patients with odontoid fractures requires careful patient selection and consideration of pre-existing comorbidities.įractures of the C2 odontoid process are the most common isolated spine fracture in geriatric patients and are associated with high morbidity and mortality 1, 2, 3, 4. Among geriatric patients with odontoid fractures surgical management was associated with similar in-hospital mortality, but higher in-hospital complication rates compared to non-operative management. These findings were supported by secondary analyses that considered between-center differences in rates of surgery. Patients undergoing surgery had extended in-hospital length of stay compared to the non-operative group (9 days, IQR: 6–12 days vs. The risks of major complications and immobility-related complications were higher in the operative cohort (adjusted OR: 2.12, 95%CI: 1.53–2.94 and OR: 2.24, 95%CI: 1.38–3.63, respectively). The risk of in-hospital mortality did not differ between surgical and non-surgical groups, after patient and hospital-level adjustment (OR: 0.94, 95%CI: 0.55–1.60). ![]() ![]() Among the 13,218 eligible patients, 1100 (8.3%) were treated surgically. Generalized estimating equation models were used to compare outcomes between operative and non-operative cohorts. Secondary outcomes were in-hospital complications and hospital length of stay. The primary study outcome was in-hospital mortality. We identified patients 65 years or older with C2 odontoid fractures from the Trauma Quality Improvement Program database. Our study aims to investigate the association between surgical management of odontoid fractures and in-hospital mortality in a multi-center geriatric cohort. Optimal management remains controversial. ![]() Odontoid fractures are increasingly prevalent in older adults and associated with high morbidity and mortality.

![]() ![]() We're not so taken with the auto-brightness, however. ![]() That's all the more significant, given that one of Google's plays with Android 4.4 KitKat is giving you more of a full screen experience, and this is a screen that's a great place to showcase that. Importantly, however, it's much better with colour handling than the previous Nexus smartphone and the IPS panel offers great viewing angles too. The size gives it a pixel density of 445ppi, which is up there with the best of 2013. The 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution display on a 4.95-inch panel keeps it in line with flagship models like the HTC One or Samsung Galaxy S4, offering plenty of detail. The Nexus 5's launch towards the end of the year means that, to a certain extent, it's treading familiar ground. It lacked punch, even if the 720p display offered plenty of detail. One of the criticisms of the Nexus 4 was that the display wasn't especially capable when it came to delivering colours. READ: HTC One review A display to impress We can't call it jaw-droppingly good looking like we can the HTC One, but we suspect that many will be drawn to its understated simplicity. Instead, both are ceramic with a muted finish which fits with the rest of the device.Īvailable in black or white finishes, the Nexus 5 falls into the gap between minimalist sophistication and utilitarian blandness. It's the same approach we've seen from the Nexus 10 and Nexus 7, with the Nexus 5 now carrying huge Nexus lettering across the back, glossily embossed.įrom the front things are kept clean and simple: there's no branding and even the speaker grille is kept to a minimum, just a round aperture as the only break in the Gorilla Glass 3 surface.īuttons are kept minimal on the Nexus 5: there's no shining aluminium side button or fancy-patterned volume rocker. Switching away from the glass sandwich of the Nexus 4, the new Nexus 5 has a polycarbonate body, with a tactile matte finish.
