A replica of 40’s first mass produced tin toy robot in 6 inches was once again replicated to this 8.8 inches tall giant version with added stop and go switch at the back of the robot. Smaller one walks by pin action whereas this one’s actually walking with moving legs and striding arms. It is a simple yet very attractive all-metal weighty handmade piece with a very affordable price tag. I love this toy but on the box it is written “ATTENTION: THIS IS NOT A TOY FOR ADULT COLLECTORS ONLY”. Well…… For me, it still is a toy and a very cheap one too. I mean what else is if this is not a toy? Ha Ha!! However, it would’ve been more appropriate to write “WARNING! SHARP METAL EDGES MAYBE DANGEROUS FOR KIDS UNDER XX YEARS OLD. ADULT SUPERVISON REQUIRED WHEN PLAYING” Just a thought but my kids don’t even bother to look at it as it is not a Xbox game……

Lledo was a British manufacturing company founded in 1982 by Matchbox co-founder Jack Odell, and Burt Russell,and based in Enfield. The factory produced mainly die-cast scale model commercial vehicles, and also cars, from 1983 to 1999, when the company went into bankruptcy.
Models were later made in China. "Lledo" was a reversal of Odell's own surname, a mnemonic device from war days in the African desert so as not to forget his wireless call sign.
History:
Days Gone.
Lledo set out to specialise in replicating early Matchbox series styles, particularly the Models of Yesteryear range. Odell and Russell bought machinery from the Universal company, which had purchased the Matchbox plant and shipped it to Macau. The tooling they purchased was re-shipped back to Enfield, England where in April 1983 the new Days Gone range was launched. The name is a nice continuation of Matchbox's nostalgic "Yesteryear" theme.
The first Lledo models appeared on the market in early 1983. These were a horse-drawn tram, a horse-drawn milk float, a horse-drawn delivery van, a stagecoach-like omnibus and a horse-drawn fire engine. One of the more popular models was the Ford Model T van introduced later in the year.
Lledo promotionals
The promotional market became Lledo's bread and butter, and the aim was to provide variations to be offered for different businesses. Of the hundreds of Lledo variations appearing in the first six years of production, all were based on only thirty basic castings.
The Model T, especially, became the basis for a series of limited edition models for gifts and promotions. Different from the original Matchbox Models of Yesteryear line, there were only a selection of basic castings which were commonly produced in limited edition promotion runs of 500 or 1000 models. For example, the basic Model T delivery van was produced in more than 170 different liveries.[6] Meanwhile, the horse-drawn vehicles were produced less and less, the last one appearing in 1984. The London Double Decker bus was a popular promotional; it appeared in many forms like "Vimto-Keeps you Fit", "Madame Tassaud's Wax Museum", or the "Boys Brigade" model whose intent was to raise funds to provide safe drinking water for third world countries. Another promotional example was the VW Transporter van which appeared in Pepsi, 7 Up and Bosch spark plugs liveries, amongst many others
To distinguish promos from traditional "Days Gone" series models, model baseplates were differentiated. Either "Days Gone" or "Lledo Promotional Model" began to appear on the chassis, according to need. Most models were produced by Lledo, but several 'Code Two' models were manufactured and sold to second parties for label and logo application previously agreed to by Lledo.

Foreign marketers
Some Lledos were sold in the U.S. under the Hartoys name, headquartered in Florida, and mainly selling a series of trucks to be sold in supermarkets and drug stores. One of these Hartoys lines was called the "Fantastic Set o' Wheels". Perhaps because of the diecast expense, these did not last long and did not become popular, despite fine craftsmanship and notable brand liveries. By the early 1990s, Hartoys was using Chinese diecasters to continue to make models, now called the "American Highway Legends" (AHL). One example was the 1939 International A&P truck. Other Lledos were marketed in the Netherlands under the Edocar name.

The famous Replicator avatar of Grendel's Children. I did not use one in its entirety but assembled the elements of several of them around Alpha; since in their original state these avatars diverge too far from the human and would probably fall outside the Uncanny Valley's threshold.
I have replaced the "Drow" skin with the "Forge" skin designed by Vry Offcourse. This is not really a "nude" skin in that it covers the entire body with metal plates... I think this skin does actually bring Alpha closer into the threshold range.
Genome dynamics and stability are the ne plus ultra requirements for cellular life. No matter whether life began with metabolism, with self-replicating genetic molecules, or as a cooperative chemical phenomenon, all cells and viruses maintain a genome capable of multiplication, variation and heredity. A population of living entities with these properties will evolve by natural selection, and while modern metabolism supplies the monomers from which genomes (i.e. replicators) are made, genomes alter the kinds of chemical reactions occurring in metabolism (Maynard Smith and Szathmary 1997). This book deals with DNA repair and replication. Together with two other planned volumes,one on transposable elements and genome dynamics and another on recombination and meiosis as a key issue of the metazoan germline development, this volume introduces the conceptual frame work of the series. An earlier review on the classic monograph Mobile DNA (Berg and Howe 1989) was entitled“On the Impossibility of Knowing More. ”It states:“This big book indeed tells us everything but says nothing. It provides no conceptual framework as to what the burgeoning bulk of molecular data means, not out of intent but because it is swept along by an attitude found increasingly in science of ‘never mind the quality, feel the width’ ... the book is essentially uninformative regarding the biological importance of transposable elements in ontogeny and phylogeny” (Dover 1990). The present book series tries to circumvent such criticism. Of course, there have been milder opinions of the monumental Mobile DNA book as well (Brookfield 1989; Fincham 1989). Actually, the 2002 publication of its successor Mobile DNA II (Craig et al. 2002) impressively demonstrates the swift progress int his significant research field, which now not only largely addresses questions of evolutionary relevance but pragmatically feeds additional knowledge applied in human gene therapy or helps to understand the somatic maturation of the immune system by V(D)J recombination. The latter actually demonstrates the closeness of transposable element transposition to DNA repair as the V(D)J recombination reaction is completed by the non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) DNA repair pathway in lymphocyte development where the DNA double-strand break (DSB) is generated through the transposase (i.e. endonuclease) activity of an ancient transposable element. This transposon inserted into an ancestral vertebrate genome some 450 million years ago(Yuetal.1999). In line with this important interface between a vertebrate transposon and DSB repair, the second chapter of Part II of this book reports on asimilar relationship of the Drosophila P elements triggering DSBs and facilitating the understanding of the mechanisms of replication-dependent DSB repair. Other molecularly fossilized but experimentally revitalized transposable elements which promise to be o fbiomedical relevance are planned for an upcoming book volume. As Carl Woese recently said, it seems to be about time that biology makes a choice between the comfortable path of continuing to follow molecular biology’s lead or the more refreshing one seeking a new and inspiring vision of the living world (Woese 2004). To accomplish this is my goal with the book series Genome Dynamics and Stability, where this first volume is dedicated to integrative aspects of replication and DNA repair providing an overview of some facets and perspectives of genome integrity. DNA integrity is relevant for all organisms, and therefore it opens avenues of curiosity ranging from viroids in applied plant research to grasping biodiversity. This vision however must include pragmatic aspects of biomedical relevance as well. The book at hand is entitled Genome Integrity: Facets and Perspectives. It contains a rather broad spectrum of chapters representing key aspects of DNA repair with a slight bias towards DSB repair as justified by its importance. Actually, every chapter is self-sufficient and could serve as an independent entry point to the whole book. The sequence chosen starts with three chapters introducing replication as a fundamental aspect of life. Here, the first chapter gives a general introduction to replication worth to be read by undergraduate students as well as academics, while the second chapter attempts to present a concept towards an anatomy of the eukaryotic replication fork. The third chapter adds the aspect of human diseases to the two more fundamental aspects in Part I. Replication is then linked by two interface-chapters in Part II to the world of DSB repair. The second chapter of Part II first reviews the history of the discovery of the physical nature of the gene and gene mutations. Exploiting gene targeting as an experimental, technical pillar, it attempts to compose the different models of DSB repair into a unifying synthesis. This joins Part II with four key aspects of DSB repair representing Part III. These four key aspects review the structure and function of the Rad50/SMC protein complexes in chromosome biology, further focus on the simplest pathway for DSB repair, i.e. non-homologous endjoining (NHEJ), and focus on a central gatekeeper crucial to avoiding cancer development, i.e. p53, and the most complex role of chromatin in DSB repair. The chapter on DNA base damage recognition in Part IV introduces DNA repair pathways involving one-strand lesions and their pleiotropic interactions with cell physiological functions, such as cell cycle, apoptosis and examples of major human diseases. While DSBs can be triggered and their repair can be studied at precisely defined positions on nucleotide level within a given chromosome, DNA damage introduced through radiation and other genotoxic stress factors follows a slightly different research lead. This is the common theme of the four chapters in Part IV. Ion irradiation as a tool to reveal tracts of damage throughout the eukaryote nucleus reminds us of cloud or Wilson chamber experiments in atomic physics detecting elementary particles of ionizing radiation. Here, in the final chapter of Part V, the tract of damage in a cloud of chromatin is monitored using antibodies to proteins characteristic of specific DNA repair pathways, as discussed in the last chapter of Part III. The four final chapters are important for many reasons, ranging from a significance for irradiation treated cancer patients, or victims of the Chernobyl disaster to the exposure to cosmic radiation of astronauts on long-term space missions. The original idea forthis book came from the 8thmeeting of the DNA Repair Network in Ulm, Germany, and would not have been possible without the support of the Deutsche Gesellschaft für DNA-Reparaturforschung (DGDR). Here I would like to mention especially Jürgen Thomale, Alexander Bürkle, Lisa Wiesmüller, Bernd Kaina and Friederike Eckardt-Schupp, who supported the initial idea and acted in the background.Further I would like to thank the anonymous referees for doing a great job in peer reviewing and improving the manuscripts. I also thank the University of Heidelberg, which gave access to their electronic journal collection. Last but not least, I have to thank Sabine Schreck (Springer, Heidelberg) without whom I could never have engaged in this project. Ursula Gramm(Springer,Heidelberg) and Michael Reinfarth (LETeXGbR, Leipzig) did a fine job copye diting all manuscripts and the Springer team succeeded well in establishing the SpringerLink OnlineFirst version of this bookseries, which provides authors withmore flexibility in the individual handling of their contributions.

Small self-replicating bits of nucleic acid are a simple and essential intermediate in the origin of life, but calling them "viruses" is a stretch. The distinction is that so far as I know, every modern virus known to man is a) incapable of making protein and b) requires protein to function. This is no small distinction, because the entire elaborate structure of the ribosome and its associated factors and metabolic machinery are required for usual methods of protein synthesis. (There are some clever alternatives used for making antibiotics - see Nonribosomal peptide - but I'm not aware of any virus making a capsid, etc. using such tricks) I cannot swear to you that no primordial snippet of catalytic RNA could have survived from the beginning of the world until this day without ever having been part of a normal cycle of cell replication, but if it did, it has somewhere along the line developed a great need for ribosomes it doesn't have, and has borrowed enough sequences from ribosome-containing cells to make all the protein-coding genes we identify in it today.
Of course, you could postulate that self-replicating RNAs developed protein synthesis before the proper cell membrane, and then some never became part of cells. The problem is that it is hard to picture a complete protein biochemistry, at least one of the usual ribosome-oriented type with loose aminoacyl-tRNAs and the wizard's stew of biochemical precursors to amino acids, existing free or within a typical tight-packed viral capsid. One would think that the such a protein synthesis machinery open to the environment would have special adaptations to keep components from escaping, and probably would have use some more rudimentary genetic code than the completed cell. Yet none of these primitive features show up in viruses either.
The bottom line is that viruses by their nature could have picked up snippets of code anywhere, but they are not primordial organisms from the first days of life. Wnt (talk) 15:32, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
Following up on the exploration of Alan Jaras, David Hull and John Swierzbin I used my modified brain wave camera to examine the area around BL86/DS51/R15. It seems John's worst fears regarding gamma ray energy are confirmed. These high energy sources are somehow combining to form light or energy entities. They seem able to replicate. Is this a new lifeform. If so it seems more like a virus using whole planets and stars as a host in order to multiply. The edge of the galaxy is now littered with lifeless dead planets
