    1. A 38-year-old male patient visited the Department of Urology at the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical College on 27 April 2015, due to the detection of a mass in the right kidney during physical examination. The patient had previously undergone extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy in February 2010 at Changzheng Hospital (Zunyi, China) for the treatment of kidney stones (details are unknown). There was no history of hypertension, infectious diseases or allergy.

      Case: M, 38Y0M, Chinese

      DiseaseAssertion: VHL

      FamilyInfo: The patient's mother (I-2) died as a result of pancreatic cancer. The eldest sister of the patient (II-1) underwent surgery for a brain tumor and had pancreatic and renal cysts. Another sister (II-2) underwent surgery for breast cancer. The patient's two sons (III-6 and III-7) were found to harbour their father's VHL mutation. See Figure 3 for family pedigree.

      CaseHPOFreeText: The patient was treated for kidney stones at age 33. At age 38 he was found to have a mass in the right kidney. Upper abdominal CT revealed the presence of multiple nodules and lumpy low-density areas in the left and right kidneys with uneven density. Multiple round low-density lesions were observed in the left and right kidneys, and in the pancreas. Brain CT revealed no abnormalities, but sphenoiditis was observed on the right side. Thoracic MRI revealed a round-shaped mixed signal (diameter, 12.0 mm) in the sixth thoracic vertebra. Contrast-enhanced scanning revealed minor enhancement, which appeared to indicate the presence of a hemangioma. Postoperative pathological analysis confirmed that the tumor was a clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

    1. Patient II‐1 was admitted to the Department of Urinary Surgery and Neurosurgery in October 2007 and again in December 2015. In the first hospitalization, a serendipitous left kidney mass was found, but no symptoms. Abdominal CT revealed a solid cystic mass on the inside of the left kidney with irregular enhancement (Figure ​(Figure2b),2b), indicating a radiological diagnosis of RCCC. A laparoscopic radical nephrectomy was performed, and pathology confirmed the diagnosis of clear cell carcinoma. In the second hospitalization, the patient was admitted with complaints of headache and dizziness for 2 months. A brain MRI showed a right CH (Figure ​(Figure2c).2c). Tumor resection was performed through a posterior approach, and pathology confirmed the diagnosis of hemangioblastoma. In the most recent follow‐up, his symptoms had disappeared, and radiological imaging revealed no recurrence in either the brain or abdomen.

The patient's previous medical history included urological surgery at the age of 23 years due to an epididymal cyst and an ophthalmologic surgery at 26 years of age for retinal detachment resulting from bilateral retinal angiomatosis. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scanning and angiography were used to detect the presence of quasi-circular enhancing lesions in the middle of the left kidney and large irregular enhancing lesions in the right kidney, extending into the vena cava, that formed an embolus. In addition, multiple cysts in the pancreas and kidney were detected radiologically. The patient underwent a radical nephrectomy with an embolectomy of the right kidney for treatment of T3b-stage renal cell carcinoma. After three months, he successfully underwent laparoscopic nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) of the left kidney. Histological analysis of the renal tissue revealed clear cell carcinomas.

      FamilyInfo: Familial history was positive. See Fig 1. A total of 43 members of the kindred, 24 males and 19 females, aged 2-77 years were reached for evaluation. It is stated in the paper that all affected subjects (13) were positive for the same mutation (c.500G>A). Additionally, gene sequencing revealed that 4 asymptomatic members of the kindred also harbored the pathogenic mutation, one of which was this patient who proved to be symptomatic. Phenotypes include pheochromocytoma, hemangioblastoma, and retinal HB.

But wait, I'm still there in the dark room. There's the hereness and the nowness… Oh well, then I'm nowhere!

    1. Olivetti Lettera 31 (Another name for the Dora -- or is it the opposite?) olivetti Dora (the actual base model if I'm not mistaken, with a bunch of rebrands worldwide) ETON (naturally this belongs on this list, I've even seen 2 others for sale online since) Underwood 315 (rebrand) Montgomery Ward Escort 33 (rebrand) Olivetti Underwood 310 (pretty sure this is a rebrand too, or at least very closely related) Olivetti Index (this is the closest thing I've found to my ETON branded one. It s PRACTICALLY the same in every regard - seen two online for sale) Montgomery ward escort 44 (also a rebrand of the DORA?!) Mercedes Super T (rebrand as well, seen one for sale) Montomery Ward Escort 77 (pretty close to being the same model again again... But not quite?) Neckermann BRILLANT Special T (DEFINITELY a rebrand. The manual is a dead give-away among other things) JUPITER (A typewriter 100% identical to the IDEX or ETON, but rebranded again again) Underwood 314 (no idea on this one. I gave up at this point)

    1. The Minimal Complete Typewriter Collection by [[Joe Van Cleave]]

      Joe Van Cleave's personal six categories in a (his) typewriter collection: - Standard manual - medium-sized portable (largest segment in the collector's space) - lightweight portable or ultra-portable - typebar electric - IBM Selectric - Electronic typewriter (thermal typewriter), portable, quiet, battery operation.

      Joe's minimal collection based on what he's got in his collection currently and the condition that they're in: - Royal KMM (his only standard) - Hermes 3000 (boxy middle era) - Olympia Splendid 33 (he's also got a Royal Mercury & Groma Kalibri) - Olympia Reporter - Selectric I (the only one he's got) cloth, ribbon cartridge system, no lift-off correction - Canon Typestar 220

      Some of Joe's most important criteria in a typewriter: he prefers an elite face, 1 1/2 spacing, and bichrome setting.

      At the time of this recording Joe had 30 typewriters.

    1. Results for individual PALB2 variants were normalized relative to WT-PALB2 and the p.Tyr551ter (p.Y551X) truncating variant on a 1:5 scale with the fold change in GFP-positive cells for WT set at 5.0 and fold change GFP-positive cells for p.Y551X set at 1.0. The p.L24S (c.71T>C), p.L35P (c.104T>C), p.I944N (c.2831T>A), and p.L1070P (c.3209T>C) variants and all protein-truncating frame-shift and deletion variants tested were deficient in HDR activity, with normalized fold change <2.0 (approximately 40% activity) (Fig. 1a).

      AssayResult: 5.8

      AssayResultAssertion: Normal

      StandardErrorMean: 0.1

    1. Most Suspected Brugada Syndrome Variants Had (Partial) Loss of Function

      AssayResult: 1.1

      AssayResultAssertion: Abnormal

      ReplicateCount: 27

      StandardErrorMean: 0.8

      Comment: This variant had loss of function of peak current (<10% of wildtype), therefore it was considered abnormal (in vitro features consistent with Brugada Syndrome Type 1). (Personal communication: A. Glazer)

    1. In order to protect local interests, and to prevent sectional jealousies, it was found requisite that the three great divisions into which British North America is separated, should be represented in the Upper House on the principle of equality. There are three great sections, having different interests, in this proposed Confederation.

      Referenced in Re: Authority of Parliament in relation to the Upper House, [1980] 1 SCR 54, 1979 CanLII 169 (SCC)

    2. To the Upper House is to be confided the protection of sectional interests ; therefore is it that the three great divisions are there equally represented, for the purpose of defending such interests against the combinations of majorities in the Assembly.

    1. But the very essence of our compact is that the union shall be federal and not legislative. Our Lower Canada friends have agreed to give us representation by population in the Lower House, on the express condition that they shall have equality in the Upper House. On no other condition could we have advanced a step ; and, for my part, I am quite willing they should have it. In maintaining the existing sectional boundaries and handing over the control of local matters to local bodies, we recognize, to a certain extent, a diversity of interests ; and it was quite natural that the protection for those interests, by equality in the Upper Chamber, should be demanded by the less numerous provinces.

    1. It is quite right that the General Government should have such powers; but the very fact of our having to make a reservation of this kind, is an unpleasant recognition of the fact, in itself the reverse of encouraging, of the all darkening neighborhood of the United States.

    1. It would not become them to object to the nominative plan, because the members for the Upper House would be nominated by the Crown on the recommendation of the General Government. He might say it here, because it was said by everybody outside, that in the event of any thing like injustice being attempted towards the British population of Lower Canada by their French Canadian fellow-subjects, —they would moat unquestionably look for remedy and redress at the hands of the General Government, who would hare the power of causing their interests to be represented in the Upper House of the General Legislature.
