Abstract: A system for implanting an acetabular prosthesis includes a striker arrangement having a handle and a striker shaft with a distal end configured to engage an acetabular prosthesis. An elongate buttress shaft defines a longitudinal axis and is configured to receive the striker shaft therethrough; it is attachable to the striker shaft such that the distal end of the striker shaft extends beyond a distal face of the buttress shaft. The distal face has a larger diameter than a diameter of the distal end of the striker shaft and has a curved surface oriented transversely to the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for converting a Daisy format digital talking book file into a conventional digital streaming media file. The method includes accessing administrative information in a Daisy file, identifying a start and end point for a specific audio portion of the digital talking book, parsing the specific audio portion from the Daisy file, creating a new audio file using the parsed audio portion, adding a header to the new audio file, and saving the new audio file.
