Maxius Beyond Straight 2 oz.
Maxius Beyond Straight 2 oz.AElk Grove, CAHairDark BrownThick or Coarse HairNew Product To Play WithOkay, so I have used the Maxius Beyond Straight once and it really got my hair straight. I could have stopped after blow drying but I decided to flat iron too. To give this product a fair rating, I'll have to try this product again because my hair is super thick and full and I was a bit heavy handed because I didn't think it would work. It worked to straighten my hair but my hair feels stiff, not bouncy and not flowing. I think this may be because I was too heavy handed so I'm willing to try this product again just using a little bit and trusting the product. Overall, I can't believe a product actually did what it said it could do for my hair type (very coarse), I mean, my edges are even laid, and I know many of you know what I mean. Well, on to next time.posted Nov 8, 2013Link to this post
Maxius Beyond StraightSandraCanadaHairDark BrownCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairGreat Product!I used this very liberally before I blow dried my hair. It made my hair very shiny and very straight. The only downside is that it didn't leave my hair very soft (although the shine makes it looks as if it were soft). It's texture was sort of like a light hairspray, but it did the trick. It may be that way because I used too much. I have very thick hair, so I used about two handfuls. It's raining today and my hair is still straight. Normally it would frizz up before I even left the house. Such an excellent product, I'm so happy to have found it. Definitely worth the money!!posted Oct 10, 2012Link to this post
Maxius Beyond StraightMarieSouth GeorgiaHairAuburnCurly HairSay It Ain't So! I've Beat The South Georgia Humidity!I have red, naturally curly hair (banana curls; hair down to my shoulder blades when straight), and it has been quite a task to find a product that will keep my hair straight in 88% humidity or higher. Maxius did the trick!
I must admit that the first few times I used the product I wasn't using enough, so it didn't give me the results that I anticipated. I was only used about a quarter sized handful to two handfuls throughout my hair when wet.
Using a blow dryer has never worked out well for me either; I just don't use them very often (matter of the fact, I don't even own my own blow dryer). Whenever I try a blow dryer it makes my hair SUPER frizzy and it wasn't keeping my hair straight.
So, Last night I used globs of Maxius in my hair (about 3 or 4 half dollar sized globs) while it was right-out-of-the-shower-wet. I didn't have time for my hair to COMPLETELY dry naturally, but I could see non-frizzy curls forming. When I straightened my hair it came out stick straight, lasted through the rain, and I woke up to VERY straight hair (only a few waves where it falls over my shoulders).
I would highly recommend this product. Don't give up after your first use! You might just need to use a little more product and a process that works for you as far as drying and straightening.posted Jul 13, 2012Link to this post -
Maxius Beyond StraightDarleneSouth FloridaHairBlackDry HairCurly HairThick or Coarse HairChemically Treated HairMust Have For Curlies!I live in humid south Florida and after washing my hair I would put this on my damp locks, blow dry my hair (it works as a heat protectant for blow drying), apply a thicker heat protectant and finish flat ironing my hair. Trust me it works the one day I decided not to use it (i wanted to see if it was really working or if it was the fact that I had gotten a BKT) I had frizz all over my hair. It might seem a little pricy but it last a long time so to me it was worth it.Just make sure you coat your hair with it (not too much though) and you'll be good to go. On very high humidity days go with a little extra, trust me.posted Jul 9, 2012Link to this post
Maxius Beyond StraightClaireNYHairMedium BrownFine or Thin HairIt Works--even Florida Or Ny In AugustOnly product I have found that doesn't weigh hair down, and really does what it says it will. It works with the blow dryer, but does work best with the flat iron. For me Maxiglide is easiest flat iron to manage, since you don't have to use separate comb as you go. These two products together give me a smooth, sleek style that lasts outdoors.posted Jun 25, 2012Link to this post

Maxius Beyond StraightJennyHairBlackThick or Coarse HairDidn't Do What It Claimed To DoI have thick wavy hair which naturally straightens out a bit after it has dried. I was hoping to speed up the process and help it straighten out more with this product. However, not only did this product NOT help with that, it also left my hair sticky and tangled up. Didn't like this at all!posted Sep 20, 2011Link to this post
Maxius Beyond StraightLindaWashingtonHairGreyCurly HairThick or Coarse HairLoving Beyond Either Way!I initially bought this product 7-8 years ago to straighten my hair (after seeing the ad on a t.v. shopping channel). My hair is a frizzy curly, not smooth curls but the zig zag kind (Hispanic descent) and with humidity it just frizzes out. (riding Harleys wearing helmets long straight hair works out best) I loved the Beyond Straight so much that the days I decided not to use the flat iron I still used it, and it made my curls curly, not frizz zig-zag curled. I ended up cutting my hair short later on, I still used the Beyond Straight as a gel, I still love it, so curly or straight, long or short, the gel is exceptional for me. I haven't used anything else in my hair in all these years. It's truly worth a try!posted Sep 1, 2011Link to this post
Maxius Beyond StraightLynne B.United StatesHairBlackDry HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairA Miracle!I spent a week in New Orleans, Louisiana the last week of July and used this product. The humidity was unbelievable; everything was wet. Normally, my hair would be wavy and frizzy and awful, but it was straight the entire time. Even after going out in the rain and humidity. I had been using Alterna Hemp straightening balm which worked OK, but had read the rave reviews about Maxius Beyond Straight and was worried about the extreme humidity on my trip so spent the money on this even though I have a new bottle of Alterna Hemp straightening balm. It was worth every penny and I am going to buy more. I have never used any product that worked this well to straighten my hair and keep it that way without frizz.posted Aug 2, 2011Link to this post

Google was offering 100,000 and 275,000 dollars to the developers of applications for Android (Googles mobile phone platform).
The winners were announced today. I am a bit disappointed that there are no charities or non-profits represented, but there are some clever, functional, and useful apps. Functionality appears to be the biggest factor in who won. If you are building apps or thinking of doing so, this is a great way to see the type of applications and gadgets Google likes for their platforms.
Congrats to all the winners!

Space Brains: Zombified Star Wars Posters
This is a series of works created by Star Wars artist Matt Busch in which the original movie posters have been zombified. I like the guts hanging out of the tauntaun, that's a nice touch. And for the record -- I'd still take my chances with Han. So dreamy.
To coincide with the release of the latest Clone Wars episode "Brain Invaders", which involved the clones and a Jedi becoming zombies, the Star Wars guys did a zombie theme for this week.
Good job, Matt, impressive work. Granted not as impressive as if they were 3-D and actually tried to bite you through the monitor, but that would make watching porn f***ing insane AND YOU DON'T NEED THAT. Which is exactly why the government won't release the technology. You perverts ruined it for the rest of us!

Google Streets: Now With Drunks And Fire!
There are all sorts of neat things to spot with Google Earth and Google Street View. Apparently including some guy that's shitcanned and passed out in his neighborhood.
When this drunken Aussie was shaken awake by police he prayed none of the neighbors had seen him collapsed on the curb. Unfortunately millions could gaze at his slumped form. For at the moment he passed out, Google's Street View camera car was filming in that corner of Melbourne. And the man - identified only as Bill, 46, - is not happy. The fisherman who had been drowning his sorrows at a funeral, said: "I wasn't thinking there would be someone driving by with a camera."
Now I've never been to a jeans and tennis shoe funeral, but I'm sure they exist. But Bill, a word of advice -- there is ALWAYS somebody driving by with a camera. If it's not Google, it's the government or a psycho ex-girlfriend. Or maybe the PI your wife hired to catch you cheating. My point is this: if you have to pass out, keep your legs out of the freaking street. Because if the camera car had been driving anything like I do, now performing a Google search for "your legs" wouldn't find any matches.
Hit the jump to see a picture of a Google Street View of a house on fire from Sherwood, Arkansas.

The wipeout: It's rarely fun. It's sometimes painful. In rare instances, it can be deadly. But most times, if you're the victim, you take a deep breath, salve your bruised ego and paddle right back out for another wave.
Here, a surfer goes over the falls in spectacular fashion at Waimea Bay on the North Shore of Oahu.
Click through to see more cringe-worthy wipeouts.
Teahupoo, Tahiti, is regarded by most surfers as the world's heaviest wave. It's lip is thick and powerful, and it plunges over a shallow coral reef. It's not the kind of place you want to wipe out.
And yet Tony Brooks of Australia did just that -- in grand style -- during the Billabong Pro in May 2006.
Bodyboarders wipe out, too. This wipeout on the North Shore of Oahu couldn't have ended well.
Rochelle Ballard wipes out during the Roxy Fiji Surf Jam at Cloudbreak, Tavarua, Fiji. You have to admire her positioning: She almost looks to be bodysurfing the wave.
This bodyboarder had to be feeling the spine-twisting effects of this wipeout in Hawaii for days.
A wipeout at Byron Bay, Australia: Butt down. Legs out. It's not pretty, but it works.
Wiping out when you're alone on a big wave is bad enough, but when you're dropping in at Waimea Bay with half a dozen others? Dangerous.
Makua Rothman had a long way to fall in this wipeout during the O'Neill World Cup at Sunset Beach in late 2005.
Oahu's Pipeline is infamous for its razor-sharp reef. This guy is peering into the abyss with his arm out, no doubt fearing possible impact.
This relatively small wave made for an impressive little wipeout.
This surfer took a big spill at Pipeline -- mere yards from a surf photographer.
Mark Occhilupo transformed into a red-and-purple missile during the Mountain Dew Pipeline Masters in December 1999.
Another human missile, this surfer shot off his board at Scotts Head on the New South Wales coast of Australia.
This surfer looked to be planning his entry point as he plunged head-first toward Pipeline's reef.
Next: 10 Amazing Survival Stories from Mount Everest
Kai Otton of Sydney, Australia, had a long way to drop in this 2011 wipeout at Teahupoo, Fiji, during the Billabong Pro Tahiti.
Amazingly, despite the fall, Otton went on to score a perfect 10 during the heat, which should inspire anyone who wipes out -- in surfing, or in life.

Hawkinsville, Pulaski County Residents Could See Consolidation on Next Ballot
HAWKINSVILLE, Georgia (41NBC/WMGT) -- This November, the residents of Hawkinsville and Pulaski County may have the opportunity to decide if they want to consolidate. A bill that would combine the governments is making it's way through the Georgia General Assembly.
"A small town like this we don't need but one government," said Hawkinsville resident, Eschol Brown.
Brown is a life-long resident of Hawkinsville, but he says not everyone share's the same mindset.
"We got some hard-hearted people in these small country towns and areas and some of them you can't change a ball with a bat."
When it comes to combining the city and county governments, the leaders are staying neutral.
"It's up to the people, I'm not going to take a stand one way or another," said Butch Hall, Pulaski County Commissioner.
"We're doing fine now, as we are, however if the community would like to consolidate governments, I think that would work fine also," said Jerry Murkerson, Hawkinsville City Manager
A 16 member consolidation charter commission, made up of city and county residents, helped write the consolidation bill. The new government would consist of a five member commission, with one at large, and four district representatives.
The bill wouldn't eliminate any positions in the first year. One of the contributors, Hugh Coleman says, over time the consolidated government would get rid of duplicate positions and services.
"In the long run, you'd have less of those expenses," said Coleman.
The bill was based on feedback from public meetings.
"We really didn't have very many concerns that came out," said Coleman.
Coleman says a concern for some was the equal treatment of all residents. That's what Wanda Heneson wants.
"It would be positive if they going to do something for the people, not against the people," said Heneson.
If that's what the people are presented with, Heneson says everyone should say yes to consolidation. The bill has to pass through the senate, and get approval from the Department of Justice.

03/12/2010 - Despite restrictions on taking the species from European waters, the spiny dogfish is still imported into the UK and other EU countries. Most of the meat in Britain ends up in fish and chips without consumers knowing what they are eating.But a meeting of 175 countries next week is expected to crack down on trading of the shark meat meaning it will no longer be appearing in the nation's favourite dish....Matt Rand, coordinator of the Shark Alliance, said around 20,000 tonnes of spiny dogfish - also known as rock salmon - is still eaten in the EU every year. He said most of the meat in Britain ends up in fish and chips, but is labelled as something else.Read the full article No More Shark in UK Fish and Chips on the Daily Telegraph's Web site.

text: Many heavy truck cabs have a sleeper berth behind the drivers seat. With the new FMCSA HOS regulations in place, which limit daily and weekly hours that commercial motor vehicle drivers can operate their vehicles, use of sleeper berths may have increased. Past research has suggested potential links between environmental stressors and driver health and performance. These environmental stressors include exposure to air pollution, vibration, and noise within the cab and sleeper berth while driving and at rest stops. The objective of this research study is to improve heavy truck ergonomics in order to reduce fatigue and improve driver health and performance. It will simultaneously measure air pollution concentrations, noise, and vibration inside heavy-duty diesel truck cabs and sleeping berths while driving in different speeds and idling at a truck stop.

Don\'t give Oliver diabetes
Did you hear that they are giving Oliver from Hannah Montana Diabetes! This is just cruel because everybody knows that Nick Jonas has diabetes. Hannah Montana is a Comedy show and giving Oliver diabetes is like rubbing it in Nick's face, and making fun of others with diabetes as well! Please sign this Petition so that Oliver will not have diabetes on Hannah Montana.

HILLSVILLE — Among the sealed indictments from last Thursday's special grand jury was a charge of felony embezzlement against the former executive director of the Carroll County Chamber of Commerce.
Named in the one count of embezzlement filed in Carroll Circuit Court was Roger Thomas Hawthorne, 56, of Hillsville.
The indictment was unsealed after Hawthorne turned himself in to authorities on Friday.
An indictment is a formal charge, not a finding of guilt.
HILLSVILLE — A former executive director of the Southwest Regional Enterprise Center in Galax pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of petit larceny in Carroll County Circuit Court last Thursday.
Kim Dove was originally charged with embezzlement through an indictment by a Carroll grand jury, but in court Thursday the charge was reduced to the misdemeanor through a plea agreement.
The predicted high-scoring affair between Galax and Bland County never materialized Friday night, as a steady rain and field conditions slowed the teams to a scoreless first half before the Bears pulled away to win 19-8 on two late touchdowns.
The Maroon Tide held an 8-6 lead into the fourth quarter, until Cory Andrews put Mountain Empire District co-leader Bland on top for good with a 3-yard touchdown run with 8:02 remaining.
WYTHEVILLE –– After a combined 40-plus matches played by Galax and Fort Chiswell, the entire previous three months all came down to one little game to 15.
In a one-match playoff to decide the Mountain Empire District regular season championship, Fort Chiswell rallied from a 6-2 deficit in the fifth game and scored the final eight points to defeat Galax 17-25, 26-24, 19-25, 25-17, 15-9 at George Wythe High School.
RICHLANDS –– Carroll County was finally able to get past the early stages of a district game without finding itself in an early hole, but the Cavaliers weren't able to make the strong start hold up as Richlands clinched the Southwest District championship with a 23-7 win Friday at Ernie Hicks Stadium.
MAX MEADOWS –– For the first time since 1994, Fort Chiswell has left a football game against Grayson County with a smile on its face.
The Pioneers used a 19-point outburst in the second period to end a 14-game losing streak to the Blue Devils, taking a 25-6 win in a Mountain Empire District game Friday at C.F. McKinney Field.
HILLSVILLE –– Galax won the Mountain Empire District boys' cross country championship for the 18th time in the program's 20 years of existence, placing seven runners among the top eight spots during the district meet Wednesday at the Southwest Virginia Training Center.
Two people were arrested Monday afternoon after an altercation led to five Republican campaign workers being sprayed with Mace at their headquarters in Galax.
Galax Police Chief Rick Clark said officers were dispatched shortly before 1 p.m. to the Galax Republican headquarters on East Grayson Street when a caller reported someone had sprayed office workers with Mace.
Responding officers arrested Daniel Cason Meinecke, 29, and Cara Annis Hindman, 26, both of Galax.
HILLSVILLE — Three reckless driving convictions against a 47-year-old Pilot Mountain, N.C., man were the legal conclusion on Tuesday in his preliminary hearing in connection with a March 22 wreck that killed three people instantly on Interstate 77.
Virginia State Police had charged Gary Edward Hicinbothem with driving under the influence of alcohol, reckless driving and three counts of involuntary manslaughter in the crash not far from the Fancy Gap exit in Carroll County.
INDEPENDENCE — A site has been chosen for the new regional water system in Independence — but the land purchase must still be negotiated.
Bobby Lane of Lane Engineering updated Independence Town Council Oct. 14 on the progress of both the new water system and the upgrades to the town's wastewater plant — both of which will serve the new state prison being built just outside Independence.
Lane said a site has been chosen for the new water plant, but the land had not been secured yet.

The elementary/special education program is designed to prepare teachers for dual certification in elementary and special education. Today's special education and general education children are frequently taught together in the same classroom. The philosophy of inclusion supports this approach. The dual certification major strengthens the preparation of teacher candidates to instruct both special education and general education children who will be assigned to their classrooms. It meets the federal requirement for preparing "highly qualified teachers" a part of the "No Child Left Behind" legislation.
Successful completion of the dual certification in elementary/special education program and attainment of Maryland state minimum passing scores on Praxis I and II lead to Maryland initial teaching certification in elementary and special education. Program completers are prepared to teach children with and without disabilities in regular and inclusion classrooms at grade levels 1-8. The focus within special education is on teaching students with mild and moderate disabilities who have learning disabilities, mental retardation and/or emotional disturbance. Additionally, program graduates are prepared to work effectively in collaborative teams of both special and general education teachers and school specialists. The dual certification program in elementary/special education includes many field experiences and a yearlong internship based conceptually on the Maryland State Department of Education's "Redesign of Teacher Education." The yearlong experiences during the final two semesters feature an internship in an elementary classroom and in a special education program.
Students who wish to major in the elementary/special education course offerings without completing the teacher certification program must complete a minimum of 30 credits at the 200 level or above, including at least 15 credits at the 300 level or above. A minimum of 12 education credits must be taken at Hood. The major alone does not lead to teacher certification. Students completing this noncertification option are not required to complete the multidisciplinary breadth requirements.
Three phases comprise major and teacher certification program in elementary/special education, each of which has specific course requirements and field experiences. The elementary/special education certification program requires students to demonstrate multidisciplinary breadth by completing:
Some Core Curriculum courses may satisfy the requirements for multidisciplinary breadth.
The dual certification in elementary/special education major is divided into sequential steps consisting of Prerequisite, Phase I, Phase II and Phase III. The departmental unit assessment plan features a checkpoint at each step through which students must pass before advancing to the next phase.
The courses in the prerequisite portion of the dual certification in elementary/special education program prepare students for the professional sequences in Phases I, II and III. Along with these prerequisite courses, students must complete field experiences in designated professional development schools. While completing prerequisite courses, dual certification in elementary/special education students must obtain Maryland's minimum passing score on Praxis I.
*Courses at the 500 level are open only to students who have earned a baccalaureate degree and have been accepted to Hood's Graduate School. They may carry additional graduate course requirements.
Entry to Phase I is contingent upon 1) successful completion of prerequisite courses, 2) maintaining a 2.75 G.P.A. in education courses and overall G.P.A., 3) successful performance in prerequisite field experiences, 4) meeting Maryland's minimum passing score on Praxis I and 5) endorsement by the Program Advisory Council. By the end of Phase I, students submit their entry folio and apply for entrance into Phase II.
Entry to Phase II is contingent upon 1) successful completion of Phase I courses, 2) successful performance in Phase I field placements, 3) maintaining a 2.75 G.P.A. overall and in education courses, 4) a score of "Basic" or higher on the entry folio and 5) endorsement by the Program Advisory Council. Phase II is the initial semester of the yearlong internship. Students participate in full-time course work and field experiences in a designated PDS. Phase II courses are only open to students admitted to the yearlong internship. Phase II courses must be taken concurrently. When Phase II students are not in class, they are interning in a PDS. While in Phase II, students should be completing their PRAXIS II tests (10014 Elementary Education: Content Area Exercises; 10012 Elementary Education: Pedagogy; and 10354 Special Education: Core Knowledge and Applications).
Entry into Phase III is contingent upon 1) successful completion of Phase II courses, 2) successful performance in Phase II internship, 3) maintaining a 2.75 G.P.A. overall and in education courses and 4) endorsement by the Program Advisory Council. The dual certification program in elementary/special education student will be engaged in a full-time teaching internship in designated professional development schools. Phase III courses are only open to students who have successfully completed Phase II and have been approved to continue in the yearlong internship. Toward the end of Phase III and in partial fulfillment of program requirements, the student submits the exit folio, which must meet the rating score of "Proficient" or higher. Completion of Phase III and the certification program is contingent upon meeting Maryland's minimum passing score on Praxis II tests.

This article discusses a new type of connector designed to prevent the unintentional administration of drugs.
Errors in the route of administration of irritant and vasoconstrictor drugs continue to cause avoidable patient injury in hospital practice. Total parenteral nutrition is frequently given in the ward environment and must not be connected to anything but a central venous line. Commonly, a patient can have more than 10 luer connections around his or her bedspace, allowing access to many different routes. A typical critically ill patient has a multiple lumen central venous (CV) cannula, a number of peripheral venous cannulae (PC), an arterial line and a spinal or epidural catheter, all with the associated luer connectors. It is essential that lines carrying drugs intended for central line administration should not be able to be connected to any other luer connector, and it is also equally important that standard luer (male) connector infusions and syringes should continue to fit on a CV catheter.
Figure 1: A conventional male luer. |
In this article, we present a unique solution that retains the ability to use conventional luer connectors on the central access, but prevents the unintentional connections of those drugs that must only be administered centrally to peripheral luer connectors.
Because of the nature of general hospital and critical care interventions, lines are frequently disconnected, replaced or swapped. An unfortunate common error is to connect a line containing fluid that can only be given safely through a central vein (e.g. concentrated potassium chloride, TPN or vasoconstrictors) to a peripheral cannula, resulting in phlebitis or necrosis. This is painful and distressing for the patient and often leads to disciplinary action against staff. In certain circumstances it may even be fatal.
Figure 2: A NICS CV infusion line with a male NICS connector. |
The National Health Service (NHS) of the United Kingdom has identified the incorrect administration of concentrated potassium solutions as a "Never Event."¹ Despite rigorous checking procedures and multiple system solutions, these errors continue to occur² because there is no engineered solution preventing the misconnection of a drug intended for central delivery to a peripheral cannula. The luer connection is ubiquitous to all intravenous devices whatever their route.
In 2006, the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organisations issued an alert highlighting the dangers of tubing misconnections.³ Similar problems have been identified in the NHS and other health services across Europe. Inadvertent connections of infusions intended for the central venous catheter to the peripheral cannula are possible because both carry identical luer connectors.
Unlike other routes (nasogastric and neuraxial), it is not possible to introduce a totally unique connector for central systems, as there is a requirement for the central system to accept standard luer infusion sets and luer syringes. This is necessary to enable the administration of emergency drugs in a timely way and to allow the central administration of those nonirritant drugs that can be given both centrally and peripherally. All drugs that can be delivered peripherally are safe for administration into CVC.
How the noninterchangeable connector system works
We present a risk-free, seamless solution to this problem—the noninterchangeable connector system. Two modifications are required. First, the CV catheter female luer connector would be altered in such a way that it would accept both the conventional luer syringes and infusion lines (see Figure 3) and also a new male noninterchangeable connector system (NICS) on lines that are intended only for central delivery (see Figure 2). The male NICS located on a CV infusion line would not connect to the luer connector on a PC (see Figure 2).
The NICS CVC has a NICS female connector with four projections, each with a circumferential dimension equal to that on the lip of the standard luer connectors. This allows it to connect to both standard luer and NICS infusion lines and syringes. The NICS CV infusion line has a male NICS connector with a corresponding disc that has a key structure, allowing the engagement of the four projections of the NICS CV catheter. This disc would prevent engagement with the standard female luer connector on a peripheral cannula (see Figure 2).
The female NICS connector on the CV catheter still allows access with standard syringes/infusion lines (Figure 4), allowing safe introduction of the NICS system.
Prototype NICS study
Table 1: This table presents the results of a study measuring the ease of use of the NIC connector. Participants were able to complete all connections except the connection between the male NICS and a female luer, which none of the clinicians were able to connect. |
We have carried out a study of the use of the prototype NICS in our hospital, aiming to prove that the NICS would prevent central to peripheral misconnection and that it allows the connection of standard luer infusions and syringes to the CVC. The primary outcome measure was the ability to connect NICS infusion to NIC CVC but not to a PC and the ability to connect standard luer infusion to both PC and NIC CVC.
We used a visual analogue scale (VAS) (a 10-cm line anchored with the statements very easy and very difficult) to measure the ease of use. We also measured the time taken for connection of NIC-NIC versus standard luer-PC.
Clinicians (n=66) were timed making NIC and standard luer connections and were asked to complete a questionnaire with a VAS for ease of use of the standard luer and NICS connectors.
All connections were successfully completed, except the connection between the male NICS and a female luer, which none of the clinicians were able to connect. The connection success results are presented in table 1.
The mean VAS for the luer connector was 0.34 cm of 10 cm compared with 1.13 cm of 10 cm for the NICS. The mean time to connect the luer-lock was 1.22 seconds compared with 1.7 seconds for the NICS. Whilst statistically significant, this time difference is clinically irrelevant.
Safety considerations
Figure 3: A conventional female luer. |
It is important that additional risks are not introduced when new systems are placed into a healthcare environment to prevent rare complications. Simple calculations indicate that there are many thousands or millions of luer connector interactions for each episode of significant patient harm associated with CV infusion misconnection. Any system must therefore introduce zero risk to each of these normal connections. Ideally the teaching of staff should be minimal and they would not need any understanding of the system.
A previous study of 52 intensive care nurses surveyed following the introduction of the NIC air connector (a nonindexed NIC) into clinical practice showed that, although routinely using NICS, none were aware of a change and only became aware once they were asked to attempt a misconnection.
Figure 4: A NICS female connector. |
There are several market drivers for the introduction of a NIC system. In addition to patient safety benefits, the system would potentially benefit pharmaceutical companies. First, by providing concentrated potassium solutions, TPN and vasoconstrictor agents in an infusion system that ends in the NIC, the pharmaceutical companies would be able to prevent the misadministration of these drugs into peripheral cannulae. This would allow drug manufacturers to distribute their preparation as a safer alternative to other generic drugs. The NHS Never Event would truly become a never event, as it would now be impossible to misconnect the concentrated potassium solution to a peripheral cannula.
There would also be commercial viability for the manufacturers of CVC and peripherally inserted CVC lines. It would be possible to introduce the new safe NIC CVC without any need to retrain clinicians or even letting them know that there had been an alteration.
In conclusion, engineered solutions to infusion misconnection problems are needed. No additional risk should be introduced with any new system. The NICS offers such a solution. Our studies have demonstrated that the system would be effective at preventing these tragic errors.

Colorado ADAPT Spoils the Hotel Lobbyists golf fundraiser
AHLA will meet with ADAPT and other groups to comply with the ADA.
(COLORADO SPRINGS, August 30, 2012) Colorado ADAPT crashed the Hotel lobbyists Broadmoor Classic fundraiser to demand that the American Hotel and Lodging Association (AH&LA) stop its campaign to ignore and delay compliance with the 1990 Americans with Disabilities Act. ADAPT activists in Colorado built on the work of activists across America this summer to finally bring the Hotel Lobby group to the table.
Colorado ADAPT set up an alternative "ADAPT Classic 2012" miniature golf tournament in front of the Broadmoor entrance on adjacent public property. Although the police were called, the Colorado Springs officer did not have any reason to stay because at the time ADAPT was not breaking the law in any way. The Broadmoor security however was intimidated by the constant chanting and street theater at the entrance to the exclusive resort.
"The action was awesome," said Keith Percy of Boulder ADAPT. "The AHLA ultimately responded because we said we are not leaving until we get something concrete and something in writing. When you are on the right side of history you have more perseverance and confidence in yourself. When it is a Civil Rights issue you know the subject is bigger than you are."
Colorado ADAPT negotiated with AHLA President and CEO Josheph McIneriney through the exclusive club's security service to come to an agreement. The Hotel Lobbyist offered a meeting on September 11th with VP for government affairs, Kevin Maher, to precede a meeting with McIneriney. The AHLA letter states that they will discuss compliance will all aspects of the ADA including pool access that has been troubling many people with disabilities and other disability rights groups.
The U.S. Department of Justice issued a proposed rule that would require hotels with pools and other public pools to provide lifts or sloped entries to make them accessible to people who use wheelchairs or have other mobility disabilities. The rule was set to go into effect on March 15, 2012, giving these pool owners two years to install pool lifts. Instead of investing their resources in accommodating customers with disabilities, the Hotel lobby is raising money at the Broadmoor Classic to continue their campaign of legal delay and civil-rights sabotage.
"Thank you for talking with me about setting up a meeting to discuss the ADA pool lift concerns," said Kevin Maher, the Senior Vice President for Governmental Affairs for the AHLA in a written response to Colorado ADAPT. "I am particularly interested to hear about resources you mentioned that your organization may have to help the lodging industry comply with all ADA regulations."

Thanks to JLindros for sharing.
A - Pours a nice hazy copper orange red color.
Big creamy yet soapy almost one head fades slowly with nice lacing.
S - Aromas of sweet caramel malts and some faint alcohol Theres some light sweet citrus (orange) hop notes towards the end.
T - Taste is WAY too sweet for my liking with a ton of caramel malts and some warming booze. More of those light citrus orange notes with a slight bitter finish.
M - Eh, decent carbonation with more of the alcohol presence.
O - Overall meh. Way too sweet and malty, very little hop character. I appreciate JLindros sharing this though.

Thanks to JonnyGalt (Reddit) for providing this one.
Big creamy 1.5finger head fades slowly with nice lacing, hazy copper orange red color.
Nose sweet reddish malts, toasty with caramel and light toffee, juicy malt with hint of booze, light candy orange hops and light earthy and fruity.
Taste sweet! Creamy caramel malts, light toffee, toasty reddish malts, some warming booze. Earthy candied orange hops, mild bitterness. Finish is drier but still sweet and malty, long earthy bitterness and light candied orange and hint chewy hops. The only real hop character is the spicy hop bitterness that lingers for quite a while after the finish.
Mouth is a bit fuller bodied, decent carb, some warming booze.
Overall meh. Way too sweet and malty, very little hop character. It's even hard to drink more than 1/2 a glass, so I'm glad I shared this with a few friends.

22oz brown bomber with no freshness date.
LOOK: Hazed orange amber, stellar amount of stickage of head
SMELL: Orange zest, floral, green peppercorn, blood oranges, mango, pineapple, shortbread
TASTE: Smooth, creamy, orange rind, peppery, bitter, exotic fruit, leafy, estery, herbal, warming, toasted crackers, yeast, oily citrus, hoppy semi-dry finish
I get the premise, super hoppy and dank ... reference to 420 is laughable. Yeah, the hop plant has a cousin but there is a big difference from the hop to its cousin. As for the beer, it is without a doubt a massive IPA (pretty much a DIPA). The hops don't hold back and is somewhat drinkable being it does not hold on to much balance. Hopheads should give this a try.

I managed to procure a bottle or two of this quick moving installment in the Dank Tank series, and have not seen it much since. It happens to sound like a cross between two of the breweries most popular beers, and I like the IPA a lot. I am sharing this bomber with my girlfriend.
Poured from a 22 oz. bomber to two SweetWater 15 Years snifters. Served at 42º Fahrenheit.
(Appearance) Pours a creamy white frothy head with average retention on a deep orange-red body loaded with carbonation. Appearance is pleasing. 4
(Smell) Aroma consists of a resiny citrus hop aroma on a mild malt base. The resiny aromatics are really prevalent and hit the nose the most, followed by some faded grapefruit and tangerine, indicative of mostly tart citrus notes. Hop aroma is striking and a bit sharp, followed by a mild boozy aroma. There isn't much of a malt aroma presence to back it up, so the balance is a bit wacky and the citrus hops certainly take the front. Theres a ton of hop presence but its not a pleasing aroma and some may find it offensive in its tart characteristics. Other milder hop characteristics are grassy and piney variants, but not nearly as prevalent. Potency is medium. 3
(Taste) Tastes are interesting. Hop presence is much milder in the taste than the nose would suggest. There's a significant "soapy" film-like character and taste to the hop presence and malt character in this beer. Overall its rather plain in its delivery with little standing out aside from the small but interesting flavors that peek in from time to time; a piney and tangerine candy comes through late in the finish, but overall the resiny flavors are most dominant. Sweetness is higher than average primarily due to a heavier body, blending the line between APAs and IPAs. Really mild flavor but it may suit you fine if that's your thing. Overall it was underwhelming in flavor for me. 3
(Mouthfeel) Really slick, filmy with little carbonation presence aside from some subtle and mild froth, hardly enough to excite the tongue. Some crispness to the beer would benefit the texture and compliment the flavors tremendously. Body is light-medium, alcohol presence is low. Very underwhelming compliment to the mild flavors. 3
(Overall) Really more promising by appearance and smell than it turns out to be. The flavors are subtle but decent if you are in for a mild-tasting American IPA. I would recommend this for people who are looking for the line between the 420 and the IPA, as I think it does this pretty well. I have to give it at least an average score because it is good for what it is but it's not particularly for me, and I would likely not get this again upon it not being anything particularly special or interesting. 3

Vectren Energy Delivery of Ohio and locked out members of Utility Workers Union of America (UWUA) Local 175 will meet with a federal mediator Monday, the company said Friday.
Vectren spokeswoman Chase Kelley said the meeting was aimed at "continuing the dialog and see if we can get our people back to work."
It's the only meeting scheduled at the moment, she said.
On Nov. 16, workers Friday set up informational pickets at utility locations around Dayton after a lockout by the company.
Vectren said the union rejected its last offer for a new contract for nearly 130 members. Vectren added that it put staff in place to "ensure safe a reliable natural gas service continues for its customers."
Union president Kelly Cooper said the meeting will be at the federal mediator's office on Poe Avenue in Dayton.
"We're hopeful in being successful in reaching resolution to the company's lockout," he said.
Among the labor issues outstanding are which workers are designated to respond to reports of gas leaks, the union and the company have said.

Question: Are you satisfied or angered by the way Vietnam is remembered?
In the same way that after World War I, the Germans
preached to by the forces of what became Hitler, you were betrayed at
the end
of World War I and Germany was sold down.
And by at large my buddies feel that way, that we could have won
the war
if more people were killed and more women raped, and more houses burned,
would have won it. I don't think
they're right, but they feel that way.
I think you could have paved the country with concrete and put up
a big
fence around it and you'd still have all these people who don't want you
there. "You're Americans, and we're
Vietnamese and this is our country and you may have the concrete and the
and the technology, but you're not going to win us. You
may have won a war, in a way."
Well, so there are mythologies of memory. And my dad carried with him out of World War II a mythology of America, the Lone Ranger, the doer of good, and the carrier of the democratic flame, and it had an undercurrent of almost a soundtrack of Frank Sinatra...Gene Kelly soundtrack running beneath it of buoyancy and of virtue. And the soundtrack that ran beneath the movie of Vietnam, you know, and all the people who are going to watch this know is not that "I'll Be Seeing You," "Sentimental Journey" soundtrack. It was a soundtrack of The Doors, and The Stones, and it was edgy and critical, and much more ambiguous soundtrack that more or less accurately reflected the ambiguities and the absence of certain moral underpinnings to that enterprise. Those are two pretty different edifices of this called mythology about a war. And mythology is a way of eliminating all that doesn't fit into it. You sort of eliminate that part of it. And certainly that has happened, certainly for my generation as well as my dad's.
Question: Has the rebelliousness surrounding the war gained its own kind of allure?
Tim O'Brien: Yeah, I think there's probably some truth in the notion that there's an insidious and dangerous side to the mythology that surrounds Vietnam. It has a slight stink of the "hip" and the "cool" and of the "walking the dangerous line." And I think there was an exotic feel to the war in this far-off jungle and that was part of the mythology around it. It sort of beckons one anew to the adventure when we have my exotic experience and dangerous moment that manages to erase the absolute horror of it all... the dead people and the dead children, and just the horror.
This little son of mine, who's now four, his name is Tad. A week or two ago I said I was going on a book tour, and he said, "About what?" And I explained what "The Things They Carried" was, and for the first time he had encountered out of my mouth the word "war" in a personal way. That is, he's probably heard me say it before. He said, "War? You mean really killing people, like for real?" And I said, "Yeah, for real." He said, "Really? Really killing people?" And I began by saying that people get into disagreements, and trying to simplify it. But the astonishment on a four year old's face that people are killing one another. And he said, "For what?" And boy that was had to articulate an answer to it. I didn't have an answer. The answer I really had was, "I don't know." I don't really know for what. Though I'm a person who has thought about this stuff for his entire adult life, I really haven't yet plumbed the 'for whatness' of killing people. And I don't think I ever will plumb it.

With the firing of Billy Gillispie this week, there has been a surprising amount of buzz about Kentucky basketball on the Ohio State boards and blogs. Most of this is centered around internet rumors and reports that Thad Matta is a leading candidate to replace Gillispie at UK, which may be exaggerated a bit at the moment.
According to KentuckySportsRadio.com, which is one of the best insiders out there for UK Sports, Matta actually finds himself on the third tier of the Wildcat basketball coaching search. Of course, the first tier on that list includes one name: Billy Donovan. According to their reports, Donovan is still considering UK even though he came out with the statement saying otherwise. So, you take that or leave it. The second coaching tier consist of the names of John Calapari and Tom Izzo. I don't see Izzo ever leaving Michigan State, and Calapari could do whatever his ego feels like at the moment. The third and final coaching tier, which is most important for our purposes, consists of Sean Miller, Jamie Dixon, Travis Ford, and Thad Matta. So unlike the interet rumors, Matta finds himself at the bottom of a list of names for the search committee. With that said, KSR does throw in the detail that Athletic Director Mitch Barnhart does like Matta and his coaching style.
So what should Buckeye fans think about all this? Well, honestly I think they should realize that the odds seem pretty slim right now that Kentucky will pursue Matta. If UK fails miserably with those top two tiers, Matta would still be one of four candidates that the committee would like at. Those four names also include Travis Ford, a former UK point guard and Sean Miller, who is one of the hottest coaching names on the market. On top of all of that, Matta's interest could very well be next to none. So, rest easy tonight because I really don't think Matta is going anywhere. As of where things stand today, I give it about a ten percent chance.

Artists Statement Ailsa graduated from Cardiff University in 1999 with a first class hons degree in Ceramics. Her work experiments with a wide variety of decorative wheel thrown pieces and handbuilt sculptures which concentrate on form rather than function and explore both negative and positive space and the movement suggested within those spaces. Clay is never weighed and work is always cut freehand to ensure each piece�s individuality. Ailsa also makes larger scale abstract sculptures inspired largely by her fascination with the secret world of microbiology. This vast and bizarre world offers an inexhaustible supply of imagery, which complements the subtle metaphoric associations she wishes to make Recent work explores the throwing and carving of clay and celebrating the colour of the clay itself, finishing with a clear glaze and smoke firing with salts and oxides. The use of dichroic glass fused to the raw ceramic gives the pieces an individual and jewel like quality. Much of Ailsa�s work is experimental as she thrives on the technical challenges involved in the process of ceramics. The thought and technical process is as inspiring as the forms themselves, and her work is constantly moving and changing as she pushes the boundaries and the possibilities of clay. Current WorkMy current work includes one off wheel thrown abstract sculpture, handbuilt smoke fired sculptures and decorative wheel thrown vessels. Technical Information
The one off abstract sculptures are wheel thrown, sliced into sections
and reassembled, other works are either wheel thrown or handbuilt. History

Anne Hathaway and Hugh Jackman shared the stage to introduce the upcoming lifetime achievement award and plug their movie Les Mis, which, unless you've been living in Jean Valjean exile, they're both in. During their brief speech, the pair posed an alternative plot/synopsis for their happy-go-lucky film, which goes a little something like this:
"Wolverine is being chased by Gladiator. Catwoman gets knocked up, and for some ungodly reason goes to see Bellatrix Lestrange from Harry Potter, and Borat. Then Wolverine agrees to raise Catwoman's baby. And she grows up to star in Mamma Mia!" Crushed it!

Colombian authorities hope to present a bill to congress in March that will improve access to land for miners and discourage speculators, Beatrice Duque, director of mines at the Ministry of Mines and Energy said.
The bill would change the way mining titles are administered to make it more difficult for non-miners to obtain and retain claims.
"After five years of the mining code (which was crafted in 2001), there are some things that need adjustment. We do not want mining titles to be in the hands of people that are not interested in developing mining projects, such as speculators," she said.

The Patriots also released their injury report. The following players were listed as probable for the game: WR Deion Branch (Knee), C Dan Connolly (Groin), S James Ihedigbo (Shoulder), OT Matt Light (Flu), WR Matthew Slater (Shoulder). The list of questionable players was longer.
