I can hack it !

I used the last line of Cowboy's dialog from Full Metal Jacket in a Monster Ball game the other day when the teams where 3 to 1. Cowboy is shot and right before he dies he says " I can Hack it! ". I am worried some think I was talking about cheating; some players left right after. I just w...

3DS Max5

I was working in 3DS Max5 and lost the right click options in the viewports. I am not able to disable a view option like Rotate with a right click; if I left click the select icon in the toolbar it will deselect Rotate. I also can't right click to get the quad menus. Right click will work on the loc...

I play tennis and do some free weights. I'm 56 and still give the kids a hard time on the court. Find something you can fight for your life doing; like in D3. Motivation is the key to success. Find something you love to do that is a workout. Play till you drop. You will get results.

WarAdvocat, CPAP does work for most people most of the time by holding open the airway with air pressure. My question is does the pressurized Sleep Sanctuary effect the airway the same as a CPAP system? Local vs. Global thanks Lothar. I did the rough work on the chamber with 3DS last night. I would ...

Will, they cut a hole in your throat to let air in. They also cut stuff out of the throat to make the opening bigger. They burn the lining of your throat to make it stiffer. I would rather sleep in a box. Actually inhaling creates lower pressure in the airway causing the apnea event; vacuum effect o...

Duper an alternate explanation is that 17 cm is just not enough pressure for your wife's condition now. People sometime need more pressure the longer they use CPAP; retitration might be necessary. I believe weight gain is one reason this happens.

Roid CPAP uses 20 cm not 20 mm of water column air pressure. This pressure is not high enough for all patients. Dupers' wife uses 17 cm and he stated ,"until the blockage in your throat which is CAUSING the problem in the first place forces the air out your mouth. She's prescribed 17psi"(c...

And I'm getting some thanks DBBers. Tricord the treatment that Duper is talking about is called CPAP; Continuos Positive Air Pressure. CPAP does not work because of a pressure difference but because of the higher absolute static pressure it induces in the airway by making a seal around your mouth an...

Lothar, let me try another time with words first. Just started with Maya and it would take forever. All I am doing is taking and putting the mask of the CPAP system all around the patient not just up to their face. So will the pressure on the outside of the patient negate the pressure induced in the...

Duper the CPAP system actually does pressurizes the air way. That is why you can't have any leaks. Mobius come on work with me here.

Come on focus

Mobius ambient air pressure does keep most peoples airway open. Only about 6% are OSA suffers and they just have looser tissue in their throat and need more air pressure to keep it open. If you put the OSA patient in a chamber and increase the air pressure in the chamber you increase the static air ...

The PS2 would have to have a link port. I think some of the first units had a link port but heard it was discontinued. Both units need a link port and you need a link cable. When the units are connected the combat menue can be used. Multi-Player 1 ON 1 fun can then begin:)
