    Suresh Kulkarni Oral History Interview

    No full text
    In this interview, Suresh Kulkarni, originally from Hyderabad, India, discusses his life journey from a highly educated family in India to a successful career as an engineer at Thiokol in rural Utah, where he eventually became Vice President of Engineering. After retiring in 2003, he dedicated himself to volunteering, serving on hospital boards, economic development committees, and even writing a disaster plan for Brigham City. Kulkarni shares both the benefits of small-town life, such as strong community connections, and the challenges of being a Hindu minority in a predominantly Mormon area. He reflects on his family\u27s experiences, including his parents\u27 initial disapproval of his marriage to an American, his mother\u27s eventual move to the US, and his grandchildren\u27s educational and career successes. He expresses concern about political division in the US and emphasizes the importance of communication in small communities, hoping for a more cosmopolitan and accepting future for Brigham City

Body pattern in male similar to its female (Kulkarni 2014) (Figs 6, 7). Cephalothorax. Cephalic and thoracic region in same plane. Lateral eyes encircled black, placed on prominent tubercles. AME separated by its diameter, PME less than its diameter. Smooth black pubescence on carapace. Thoracic region margined dark black. Chelicerae brown, long with three promarginal and four retromarginal teeth. Labium brown, semi-circular with slight corrugations; endites longer than wide, with wider proximal edge. Sternum brown, overall heart-shaped with straight margin at coxa II and folded inwards at coxae III and IV. Legs yellow coloured, femora black distally. Abdomen oval shaped, narrower than cephalothorax and slightly overlapping thoracic region when viewed laterally. Dorsum covered with greenish pubescence; venter black with thick yellow lines on the margin, sparsely covered with silver specks and whitish pubescence. Cymbial dorso-basal process is shorter than half the cymbial width and perpendicular to cymbium longitudinal axis. Embolar base roughly circular. Long macrosetae on palpal metatarsus measuring half times its length. Morphometry of palpal organs is given in Table 1. Remarks The variation in body size and patterns in T. ventralis (see Jäger and Praxaysombath 2009) may be confused with T. sataraensis. Male palp and female epigyne examination can confirm the species identity. Furthermore, we found webs of T. sataraensis exclusively above and across stream water surfaces whereas webs of T. ventralis were found either adjacent to stream margins or away, among low vegetation; both observed in different localities. Diagnosis Tylorida sataraensis is closely related to T. ventralis but distinguished from all described Tylorida species by the following combination of characters: less swollen tegulum ventrally, longer embolar tip (Figs 1, 2, 3), presence of macroseta on palpal patella (Fig. 4). CDBP erect and pointed in T. sataraensis but slightly bent upwards near tip in T. ventralis (Fig. 5). Paracymbium arrow shaped, lateral margins curved, distal end folded inwards in former but with straight lateral margins and distal edge bulged at one end in latter species. Overall, T. sataraensis is large sized species than T. ventralis (Table 1). Distribution India, Maharashtra, Satara.Published as part of Kulkarni, Siddharth Shrikant & Lewis, Todd R, 2015, Description of male Tyloridasataraensis Kulkarni, 2014 (Araneae, Tetragnathidae) with notes on habits and conservation status, pp. 4451 in Biodiversity Data Journal 3 on page 4451, DOI: 10.3897/BDJ.3.e445

    How to do a penile urethroplasty using a novel self‐retaining penile retractor

    No full text
    Effective retraction and clear exposure of urethral tissue is essential in reconstructive penile surgery. The Joshi–Kulkarni retractor provides stable, bloodless operative exposure via non-traumatic tissue compression at the base of penis. The self-retaining design of this retractor also improves ergonomics thereby reducing surgeon fatigue. In this article, we describe how to do a penile urethroplasty by using the Joshi–Kulkarni penile retractor.No Full Tex
