[0001]This invention is concerned with dry powder inhalers for the
delivery of drugs to the lungs. In particular, the present invention
relates to an inhaler with a chamber containing a medicament or
inhalation formulation in the form of powder. The powder is discharged by
means of a gas or air stream flowing through the chamber to entrain the
powder and to generate or form a powder spray for inhalation.
[0002]Many dry powder inhalers are on the market or have been proposed. There are two main types; passive and active. In passive devices all the energy required for deagglomeration the powder and transferring the powder to the lungs is provided by the patient. Most powder inhalers are of the passive type where the powder is inhaled by the patient without the aid of a secondary energy source.
[0003]Dry powder inhalers are subdivided into single dose devices and multi dose devices. Multi dose inhalers are further subdivided into pre metered types where the doses are stored individually in the device and metering devices where the powder dose is metered in the device.
[0004]Multi dose pre metered devices have the advantage that the single doses are metered under strict factory conditions and the powder can quite easily be isolated from the atmosphere. In many applications the active drug powder is mixed with a carrier such as lactose which tends to absorb humidity from the atmosphere which makes it stick together and difficult to de-agglomerate.
[0005]One of the main advantages of active inhalers is that the delivered mass or dose of powder is independent from the flow generated by the user which is generally accepted to be in the range of between 20 to 60 liters per minute. The disadvantage of passive inhalers that the delivered mass or dose varies according to the airflow generated by the user. The present invention is a device that minimizes variations of delivered mass or dose with airflow variations.
[0006]Metering powder inhalers have a metering chamber for accurately metering the dose to be delivered while pre metered inhalers have pre-metered doses in capsules or blister or other chambers. For simplification both types will be called metering chambers in this specification. Most passive powder inhalers have a primary flow path for the air that goes through the metering chamber and carries the powder to the patient and a secondary flow path or bypass where the air does not go through the powder-metering chamber.
[0007]When the airflow through the chamber containing the powder varies, deagglomeration of the powder and spray generation vary as well. Consequently, the spray characteristics and the amount of outputted powder may very significantly.
[0008]Object of the present invention is to provide an inhaler with improved discharge characteristics.
[0009]The above object is achieved by an inhaler according to claim 1. Preferred embodiments are subject of the subclaims.
[0010]According to the present invention, the inhaler comprises at least one valve for regulating flow through the chamber with powder, for ensuring that airflow is at least essentially fixed through the chamber, for varying the airflow restriction with flow rate, and/or for keeping the airflow restriction generally constant. This allows to improve the discharge characteristics, in particular in passive inhalers where the discharge characteristics of the inhaler greatly depend on the breathing in of the respective user or patient, i.e. of the total flow rate of air through the inhaler.
[0011]In particular, the present invention relates to a valve that keeps the airflow through the metered drug formulation at least essentially constant ensuring a constant delivery of powder to the patient. To do this the valve is dimensioned so that at the minimum accepted flow rate (20 liters/minute) enough air reaches the metering chamber. For devices with bypasses as the flow rate increases with different users or even with the same user more air is forced to go via the bypass.
[0012]For devices with bypasses the valve may be located in the primary flow path or the bypass. When in the primary flow path the valve restricts flow or closes with increased total flow and if in the by pass the reverse happens. For inhalers with by passes the device may have a valve in both the primary and by pass flow paths.
[0013]With devices with bypasses the pressure drop or restriction across the device is kept generally constant.
[0014]For devices without bypasses the valve is located in the primary flow path. In this case the device flow restriction varies with flow rate.
[0015]The valve may be operated automatically or pre adjusted by the user or other depending on the inhalation capacity of the user.
[0016]Preferably the valve or valves are located upstream of the powder chamber to eliminate powder losses on valve surfaces.
[0017]Many valve types may be used; spring loaded plungers, electronic controlled valves, rubber slit valves that close or open with increasing flow pressure or any other type of flow regulating valve.
[0018]Further aspects and features of the present invention will be apparent from the claims and from the following description referring to the drawings. In the drawings, it shows:
[0019]FIG. 1 a schematic diagram of an inhaler according to a first embodiment of the present invention;
[0020]FIG. 2 a schematic diagram of an inhaler according to a second embodiment of the present invention;
[0021]FIG. 3 a schematic representation of a valve for an inhaler according to the present invention; and
[0022]FIG. 4 a schematic view of a reservoir for an inhaler according to the present invention.
[0023]In the following, not all possible embodiments are shown. It must be understood that other embodiments are possible based on the invention.
[0024]In FIG. 1 a schematic of an inhaler I with a valve 6 in a primary flow path is shown. Air is drawn into the inhaler I via an inlet 1 of the inhaler I and delivered to the patient at point 2. A metering chamber 3 has powder 4 within. A bypass 5 connects inlet 1 to outlet 2.
[0025]The inhaler I comprises the inlet 1 where air can be drawn into the inhaler I. At least part of the air can flow through the chamber 3 containing the powder 4 (to entrain and discharge the powder 4). The mixture of air and powder is discharged via point 2 which represents in particular an outlet or nozzle of the inhaler I.
[0026]The chamber 3 may contain a pre-metered dose of the powder 4 or may be used to meter the powder 4 in particular of a bulk storage of powder 4 (not shown). The inhaler I may comprise multiple chambers 3 with pre-metered doses of powder 4 and/or a reservoir R as shown in FIG. 4, in particular a blister strip or carrier with multiple chambers 3 respectively containing a dose of the powder 4.
[0027]The total flow 8 generated by the patient is split between the primary flow 8a and bypass flow 8b. A valve 6 ensures that flow 8a through the chamber 3 is at least essentially fixed by restricting flow 8a and increasing flow 8b when total flow 8 increases.
[0028]The primary flow 8a is the part of the total flow 8 of air that is flowing through the chamber 3. The bypass flow 8b is the other part of the total flow 8 of air that is flowing through the bypass 5.
[0029]The valve 6 is located streamup of the chamber 3 in the primary flow path, i.e. in the flow path of the chamber 3. The bypass 5 branches from the main flow path coming from inlet 1 streamup of valve 6. However, other arrangements are possible as well. The valve 6 may be adjusted by the user or any other person or be an automatic valve such as described in FIG. 3.
[0030]Preferably, the inhaler I or valve 6 is dimensioned or constructed such that the primary flow 8a is kept or regulated at least essentially to a desired or required (minimum) primary flow rate 8a of air through the chamber 3. This desired or required primary flow rate is in particular less than 30 liters/min, in particular about 20 liters/min.
[0031]If the user or patient draws more air through the inhaler 1, i.e. if the total flow rate 8 is higher, the amount exceeding the required or desired primary flow rate 8a is at least essentially directed as bypass flow 8b through the bypass 5 in the shown embodiment.
[0032]Preferably, the inhaler I or valve 6 is constructed or dimensioned such that the pressure drop over the inhaler I (i.e. between inlet 1 and outlet 2) is kept at least essentially constant.
[0033]It is also possible to omit the bypass 5. In this case, the valve 6 preferably significantly increases the total flow restriction, i.e. the flow restriction of the inhaler 1, when the desired or required primary flow rate 8a through the chamber 3 is approached or reached or exceeded. Thus, the airflow through the chamber 3 and the total airflow can be kept essentially or better constant than without valve 6.
[0034]In the following, a second embodiment of the inhaler I will be explained with reference to FIG. 2. The previous description applies preferably in a similar manner even if not repeated.
[0035]In FIG. 2 shown a schematic view of an inhaler I with a valve 16 in the bypass flow path. Air is drawn into the inhaler via inlet 11 and delivered to the patient at point 12. A metering chamber 13 has powder 14 within. A bypass 15 connects inlet 11 to outlet 12. The total flow 18 generated by the patient is split between the primary flow 18a and bypass flow 18b. The valve 16 ensures that flow 18a through the chamber 13 is fixed by restricting flow 18b through the bypass 15 when total flow 18 decreases. The valve 16 may be adjusted by the user or any other person or be an automatic valve.
[0036]The second embodiment can behave similar to the first embodiment with bypass 5.
[0037]It is also possible to provide a valve 6 in the primary flow path in addition to the valve 16 in the bypass path as shown by dashed lines in FIG. 2. Thus, an even better control of the flow rates is possible.
[0038]The valve 6 or 16 may be a (automatic) flow regulating valve or (depending on the flow characteristics of the inhaler I or the construction with or without bypass 5/15) a pressure regulating valve.
[0039]In FIG. 3, an example of the automatic flow regulating valve 6 is shown for use in the primary airflow 8a or 18a. A body 21 of the valve 6 has a passageway 26 with a shoulder 24. A preferably conical plunger 22 is moveable and/or mounted on a spring 23. The plunger 22 forms a gap 28 between shoulder 24 and plunger 22. The air flows in the direction of arrow 25. As the airflow 25 tries to increase pressure on plunger 22, this forces the plunger 24 to move towards shoulder 24 closing gap 28 restricting the flow and keeping it relatively constant at all times.
[0040]Preferably, the inhaler I and/or the valve 6/16 work only mechanically. However, it is also possible that the valve 6 or 16 work electronically or in any other manner.
[0041]The inhaler I and/or the valve 6/16 may be constructed or dimensioned such that the primary air flow 8a through the chamber 3/13 is allowed or opened only if a sufficiently high suction force, air pressure and/or bypass air flow 8b/18b is present or detected.
[0042]FIG. 4 shows in a very schematic view a reservoir R of the inhaler I. Preferably, the reservoir can be inserted into the inhaler I. The reservoir R comprises multiple chambers 3/13 respectively containing a dose of powder 4/14. The reservoir R is preferably a blister strip wherein the chambers 3/13 are formed by blisters which can be opened preferably by peeling or piercing and/or one after the other in the inhaler I. However, other constructional solutions are possible as well.

This is the current issue out now!
You can't read everything online without a subscription sadly (and expectedly). I'm hoping to find a copy once DS wakes up because I'm curious. I'm hoping it's not as extreme and sensational as I'm afraid it's going to be!
I'm annoyed that the full article isn't freely available online. All the press this cover is getting is highly critical. I'm not sure if this sort of press helps or hurts those of us who choose to BF beyond the one year mark. I feel like its great to get press but this is sensationalizing the topic and perhaps putting a spot light on it as just another "out there, wacko" movement.
I got the TIME issue on the iPad today. The article itself is 3/4ths about Dr. Sears and his life. Absolutely nothing shocking or controversial at all like the cover photo makes you believe. There's mention of the Continuum Concept being the roots of AP. It does mention briefly that some moms feel traumatized for not being able to do everything in the Sears' baby book about AP. Honestly I own the book and have read it and it doesn't come across to me as an all or nothing in the least bit. They did include in the article that Sears' basically states to do the best you can and stick with your instincts, not that you have to do everything or your child will be suffer. Kinda feel there was a bit of an 'all or nothing' stance about AP in the article, which in practice I'm sure we all know people who are AP who don't do everything perfectly in the AP manner.
And despite the photo there's just mention of how AP is about extended breastfeeding (and babywearing and cosleeping and no CIO).
I actually had NO clue how many people find attachment parenting 'weird' before this article was blowing up everywhere! Everyone I know among my friends and family who has nursed a baby went on for a couple of years or so until the baby stopped or they wanted to wean. I feel like the oddball who would like to apply more of Dr Sears' techniques in my daily life but do what I can -- breastfeeding twins is killing me off so I'll push through to 6 months and reassess, carrying them both is too much for my back so I use a stroller when I'm alone but we like slings. I wasn't able to read the article, but you're right, the book definitely isn't an all-or-nothing deal. I still fail to see how any of the points are weird!
I also don't have a subscription to time, but I read the interview with the lovely lady on the cover.
It all seems very reasonable, She was breastfed until 6 (!) and remembers it as a warm, pleasant experience. She wants her son to choose when he is done. She seems to be a stay-at-home Mama, so it isn't causing her distress. I'm in the same boat,though Laszlo started self-weaning a few months back (common for chronic low-supply mamas). Laszlo can choose when he wants to sleep alone, though he's already made a decision on the BFeeding front. Not so weird, IMHO.
Laszlo Jacob, 11/9/11
I have to say, I'm also surprised by the amount of mother's I have heard say they find Dr. Sears and AP to be anti-woman, oppressive, etc... When I found The Baby Book it was like coming home! In it I found myself reading about all of these things that I already was, or planned on doing, and it all just made so much sense! And if there was stuff I didn't agree with, or knew I wouldn't be able to manage... I just moved past it! Honestly didn't give it a second thought.
I didn't read the article, but I saw a clip of the author of the piece talk about the piece, and one thing that I was annoyed with what that she was clearly saying that there are 3 tenets of AP- BFing, BWing and co-sleeping. That just isn't true- there are, is it 7 or 8? And I think the one that all critics of AP LOVE to ignore is the last one- Maintain balance in family life- which is ALL about maintaining balance between work/home, kids/spouse, etc... I hear so much ignorant ranting about how AP parents just live according to/dictated by their kids, etc, never putting anything else first... and it just gets so old. And the working mother thing... FFS, The Baby Book has a whole chapter devoted to working mothers and how you can be a great AP parent even if you choose to work....because although being home with your kids might make it easier to follow some of the AP guidelines, it is not a requirement for APing... for that matter, nothing is. Anyway...
I'm really sick of people bagging on AP, or on people who CAN identify as AP parents. Did I pick up a Dr. Sears book and say to myself, "I SHALL FOLLOW THIS TO THE LETTER OF THE LAW!"??? No... who does that?? I found myself being drawn to being close to my infant, to co-sleeping, loved the idea of baby-wearing and found strollers mostly annoying as heck (and in certain situations, useful)...and I always felt that my child deserved respect for being a person with real needs, even if she was only a few days old and only had one way to communicate them (crying). So AP fit ME, not the other way around.
What gets me about this article and this kind of press is that 1) it's totally sensational (who breastfeeds like that? No one!) and 2) it very carefully chooses which aspects of AP to focus on and which to completely ignore which gives a very false sense of the whole thing in the end.
Sorry... this topic has pissed me off in recent days, because there are a lot of people around, especially arrogant women on these boards, who just think they can talk down about anyone who can identify as being AP- or God-forbid, someone said identifying with ANY parenting label, clearly means you're insecure. Oh right, ok. I'm a little riled.
Mara & Joel, 2009
Thanks for proving my point by quoting me directly- but on another board. Cross posting - especially while calling names - is frowned upon. I'm sorry if you take my confidence to be arrogance, but if you'd like to directly quote me and call me names I'd encourage you to at least have the integrity to do it on the original board. Thanks. If little labels and boxes make you feel happy and secure bully for you, that's wonderful. I find it curious that my opinion on another board and not about you so riled you, makes me wonder why, if you are in fact so secure, you care in the least? I'm fine with you calling me whatever you like, I'd just encourage you to have the respect to quote and name call me directly to my face instead of slinking off to another board to do so in the future. Thank you!
Melissa, I've seen the way you argue, and I know I don't stand a chance against you (not because you're right, but because you are indeed very good at debating/argueing/twisting words), so I have no intention of getting into it with you.
Mara & Joel, 2009
I hope to raise kids confident enough to speak up when they are being called names. I guess that's that's the best I can expect from you in the form of an apology, so I accept it. It's a shame that a woman confident I n her own opinion is still threatening to strangers in 2012. I hope it's better for our daughters.
I'm not apologizing to you any more than you are apologizing to me for the demeaning things you said about AP parents/parents who can identify as AP parents. This is not the debate board, so let's not get into it here.
Mara & Joel, 2009

Wow there are some people in the Multi rotor forum that think they are the know all of the hobby! The funny thing is they say dont go off topic and troll but they are the ones trolling!
I fly $3k models to my mCP x(toy)! I think it's great that HH offers these type of kits! These type of models let people try the hobby w/o spending a lot of money! It also allows us other guys that like to just fly a toy sometimes and not worry about $400 battery packs or expensive crashes. It also allows some of us that have younger kids, to allow them to fly with mom and dad! These toys that I call them also allow some of us that have very bad weather in winter to still have fun w/o freezing ours off I say keep it up Horizon, I love these little toys/models... Parts are cheap and they are a lot of fun! PS: If you think $170 is to much for a rtf then you really need to get out of the hobby now, fishing is pretty cheap!!!! |

I recall someone did a big order of the 7mm tailrotor motors for the MSR. Instead of $10 each, they were closer to $0.45. I'm mostly just worrieed about the brushed motors. Unless these are heavily improved over the Micro P-51 8.5mm coreless, there are definite issues with consistency, and the propeller shafts bend quite frequently. It's not a big deal, but at $70 to replace 4 motors and 4 shafts, it seems like a strong incentive to go bruhshless. Last I checked, the AS3x board in the MCPX (which is pretty similar) is about $60 to replace. If I could pay $60 for a DSM2 quadcopter board with outputs to standard ESCs, I'd buy one right now. Heck, just bump the price of the complete quadcopter to $200 and give it four of the UMX brushless motors, and I'd buy that. As-is? No way. There's a long list of things I consider far superior value for money, and Horizon makes about half of them. |

Read NFIB's positions on climate and energy policies that affect small business.
Small business owners depend on energy supplies at globally competitive prices to operate and effectively run their businesses. According to NFIB's Energy Consumption poll, energy costs are one of the top three business expenses in 35% of small businesses.
Small companies use energy for several business-essential purposes. The primary energy cost:
- For 38% of small firms is operating vehicles
- For one-third of small firms is heating and/or cooling
- For one-fifth of small firms is operating equipment.
Energy costs have increased rapidly over the last few years. Small business owners are not able to adjust the price of their goods and services quickly enough to match potentially steep energy cost increases without hurting their customer base. Plus, owners are not able to change business practices fast enough to offset the increases. For example, most owners cannot afford to buy new, more energy-efficient equipment if current equipment still has useful life. They are effectively caught in a squeeze that only time and/or good fortune will release.
It is critical for America's small businesses to have access to affordable and reliable supplies of energy to remain competitive. NFIB recognizes its members' concerns and is dedicated to working with lawmakers to find energy solutions that work for small business.
The Keystone XL Project
NFIB believes construction of the Keystone XL pipeline is important for reducing America's reliance of foreign energy and helping to lower the cost of fuels small businesses use every day. In addition, the project has the potential to create thousands of jobs that will help create and support small businesses in communities where the jobs are created.
For further information on NFIB's position, please read our 2014 comments, 2013 comments, 2015 KEY VOTE letter, and 2014 KEY VOTE letter.
Cap and Trade by Regulation
← Learn more by downloading
NFIB's infographic on Cap and Trade
With efforts to pass cap-and-trade legislation stalled for the foreseeable future, the Administration has turned to the Environmental Protection Agency to mandate GHG emission reductions.
So far, the effort has been focused on reducing GHG emissions from power plants via two rules. The first, covering plants to be built in the future, is expected to be finalized in January 2015. The second, covering existing plants, is due to be finalized by the summer of 2015.
NFIB opposes these rules because they will impose expensive costs on electricity producers, who will in turn pass on higher electricity bills to small businesses and consumers. In addition, the rules inhibit the use of reliable and cheaper fossil fuel energy sources in favor of cleaner sources such as wind and solar. Unfortunately, at the present time, these new sources are not advanced enough to offer the reliable energy small businesses need. NFIB has submitted Comments on the New Power Plant Rule.
Read NFIB's Letter of Support for H.R. 3826, the Electricity Security and Affordability Act.
Cap and Trade by Legislation
Cap and trade is a legislative effort supported by environmentalists to regulate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, while also a way for the federal government to raise revenue (i.e. taxes) to pay for new programs. Cap and trade limits the amount of GHGs businesses may emit by requiring them to purchase government credits to offset their emissions.
- Virtually all businesses emit at least some greenhouse gases (carbon, carbon dioxide, methane, etc).
- Cap and trade's hidden taxes will affect all businesses, even if they don't have high emissions.
- If "low emitters" are exempt, they'll still indirectly pay for the cap and trade system.
Current proposals would significantly raise energy-related costs and lead to considerable job losses. Although big businesses, like public utility companies and large-scale manufacturers, would likely bear the initial costs of the program, they will pass the cost on to small businesses and consumers in the form of higher prices.

This would not be a problem at all if 2 things happened, 1. We Abolished the Federal Reserve which is nothing more then a Private Banking Cartel that issues loans to the Federal Government and any other Government in the world. These loans which are given to Governments have a stipulation in them that makes every American taxpayer responsible for every dollar in loans that the Federal Reserve issues no matter who the loan is issued to. That is why our Government claims that every man, woman, and child here in the U.S. is responsible for the $17 + Trillion dollars, it is because that is how the Federal Reserve Act was written and signed into law, even though every man, woman, or child in the U.S. was neither privy to , consented to or agreed with the Federal Reserve Act, which should makeat least that aspect of the Federal Reserve Act Null and Void. 2. What we also need to do is return to a Precious Metals and Commidity Based Standard Monetary System where as the Federal Government receives it's money from the U.S. Treasury all interest free and our money is Printed all Interest free by the U.S. Mint just like our coins are stamped out all interest free. Why should we have to borrow our own money when we have the capability and authority to print it all ourselves and all without interest being charged to the taxpayers.
As usual Dr. Paul is correct once again. It is just too bad for this nation that both the House of Representatives and the Senate didn't use or understand Dr. Paul's knowledge and incite when he was a Congressman or even today for that matter.
I think after a Jury has found a defendant Guilty of a horrible crime such as Rape, Murder, or Child Molestation, the Guilty person should not go to prison, but should be handed over into the custody of the victims family in handcuffs and shackles, so the victims family can carry out their own system of Justice. if and when the victims family is through with the guilty person, if he/she is dead, the victims family should simply call the local Coroners Office and have the body pickled up and dispensed with, no questions asked. This would eliminate the need we currently have to house, feed, clothe secure and provide medical care to thousands of prisoners sitting in our nations prisons and the taxes used to support them as well as the Private Prison system. which makes Billions of dollars yearly off of criminals and taxpayers. After all , it is the victims and the victims family only that is actually harmed by the actions of convicted criminals, not the community, or even the State.
Our nation does not need or want another Clinton, Bush , or any other Dynasty in the White House. It will take some time for our nation to recover from the Obama Regime and his work in destroying our nations credibility with Foreign nations as well as our own Economy, but the U.S. can and will recover. Because we are an exceptional nation whether Obama believes it or not. We need a President, Congress, and a Supreme Court that will follow the Constitution, and abide by the beliefs of our Founding Fathers in order to recover as a fruitful, stable, and respectable nation.
I would like to see a question on the national Presidential Ballot for the citizens to vote on. The question should be simple and worded in a manner that the common man/woman could easily understand and make a Yes or No vote on.
The question should be, :Shall Congress Abolish the Federal Reserve, Repeal the Federal Reserve Act, and return the power and authority of printing our own Interest Free money to the U.S.Mint so we can stop creating Debt slaves out of the citizens of this nation. Just like out U.S. Mint prints or stamps out our coins, all interest free, the U.S. Mint could do the same to our Dollar as well, and we would not need to borrow our own money At Interest anymore saving the taxpayers Billions of dollars in Interest payments to the Federal Reserve for a service we have the Constitutional Authority our government has on it's own, which is print our own Interest Free Currency.
That would be a good choice if Connecticut had a Recall Amendment that their citizens could take advantage of, but unfortunately just like with Illinois, they do not, therefore they apparently are stuck with these State Legislatures until the next election cycle where hopefully the citizens can make much better choices and monitor the elections much better. or have the opportunity to add a Recall Amendment to their State Constitution like Colorado has done many years ago. Isn't it amazing how State Legislatures and Governors fear the people of their respective States having Recall Amendments they the people of their States can take advantage of if they make bad election choices for their respective States.
It is most unfortunate and sad that the the citizens of Connecticut, just like the citizens of Illinois does not have a Recall Amendment in their State Constitutions, to correct the errors of bad election choices made by the voters of their respective states. and like Illinois, Connecticut makes it very difficult to add a Recall Amendment into their Constitution which would greatly benefit the citizenry from bad election choices they made in electing ant-Freedom, ant-Gun, and anti Choice Legislatures who prefer to act like Kings, instead of the Public Servants that they are who must by Constitutional law abide by the wishes of their constituents needs and not by knee jerk reactions to a sad and most unfortunate incident. No State should make it difficult to add a Recall Amendment to their State Constitutions, by doing this, they almost guarantee the State Legislatures have lifetime positions because of the difficulties in allowing pro-gun, pro-freedom-pro-choice candidates to run against them or to allow citizens to recall these elected officials.
I concur, Obama Controls the military, the police forces and unfortunately they will follow his orders without question. Regardless of whether you are innocent of a crime or not, if he says arrest or kill you they carry his orders out. That makes Barack Hussein Obama the most dangerous man in America. Police and military should learn to question their orders to determine if they are Lawful orders or not, An Unlawful order members of the Police and Military have a Duty to refuse to Obey.
Actually since the Federal Reserve Act was implemented we never left Keynesian Economics, and our economy has been worse off for it. Anytime a Government relies on a Private bank to loan them money @ interest instead of Printing their own Interest Free Money and distributing it themselves, that Government will always be in debt.
We have the Constitutional Authority to Print our own Interest Free Money, but our Government is afraid of using that authority, are Government wants to keep our nation in Perpetual Debt to the Bank known as the Federal Reserve. It is like making a choice of an individual having the authority to print their own money or going down to their local bank to ask for a loan with interest. The average intelligent person (if they had the authority to do so) would print their own money obviously. If we Printed our own Interest Free Money and kept the money printing equal to our Gross Domestic Product of our nation, we would never have to worry about Debt, a Debt Ceiling, or Inflation which robs people of the value of their money daily.
In response to:
Nothing Affordable or Care about Obama Care.

Am I completely retarded for actually liking these guys? At first when I saw some of the videos my initial reaction was pretty much summed up by "WTF, is this?"

Hehe, I'm from South Africa (but live in Scotland now) and I'm real surprised at how popular Die Antwoord are around the world.
I find them hilarious, probably as I understand all the slang and Afrikaans stuff mixed in, but it's great that they are doing well outside of SA too. |

In the past, Americans have thought that visiting amusement parks requires a week-long trip, airfare and hotel, and dealing with hours-long lines. Not anymore. No matter where you live, there's probably an amusement park near you. From thrill rides to waterslides, you don't have to go far to find a day's worth of fun. Lots of parks offer admission discounts if you buy online, or bring certain products with you (like an empty soda can).

There is a lot of history in that one. Here is a picture of me and Kevin about 40 years ago. (I'm the one on top of course) Maybe you will understand us better now! Doug |

Yes, that pic is acurate...... Doug is always strong arming his way to shiny paint. It shows how little our relationship has changed.
As in the pic Doug does most of his work with a bandanna over his eyes... in fact he flies with one on his face now. Hence the reason we all hide under our cars when he takes off. If Standard Pacific took care of their own, all the cores for the Chipmunk would be coming sheeted and ready for glass. But since they have failed miserably I am stuck showering with blocks of foam. If you able to get that house from him, get a third story apartment for me...... and my foam. I guess I can always keep warm with the heavy horsepower I will be generating soon. I doubt the motor wont cool off for 3 days after flying. |

The window is officially closed.
Final score - 9 Super Chipmunks (including one for me and one for David) will be kitted and hopefully built. I think I might have said 10 in a previous post, I was confused because we are making an extra canopy and cowl for Bo. The coolest thing so far is that I got a PM from a guy that I flew pattern with 25 years ago and have heard or seen from him since. He saw this thread and jumped in a ordered. He does not live too far from my home so we will be able to build and fly together. Thanks RCG! Doug |

* The Canopies have arrived * Four of the 10 Cowls are complete with Don working on the rest * The Foam will be done this week I will be shipping one of each of my side to David ASAP so that he can confirm that all the parts properly mate with his prototype in Canada. He expects to be able to have all the Laser Cut parts before the end of March and expected. Also, David and I have agreed that once the laser cut parts are ready he will send the all of the kits (except his) to me. That way I can box together with the Cali parts and hopefully keep the shipping costs down for everybody. Ya Hoooo..... Doug |

By following account security best practices and being diligent about always using smart internet safety practices, you can help us in the protection of your account.
Electronic Statements
Research shows that paper documents remain the most prevalent way identity theft takes place. Reduce this risk by choosing electronic statements.
Tips and Best Practices for Online Security
1. Use antivirus software and antispyware and make sure both are running and up-to-date.

4. Change your password frequently and follow good password security guidelines such as:
Do not reuse old passwords
Do not use the same password for multiple accounts
Don't use Personal Identifiable Information in your password or user name, i.e. Social Security Numbers, Birthdays, School Names, Hometowns, or Pet Names
Use a combination of letters, numbers, and symbols in your password
Don't use a word that can be found in a dictionary as your full password
Create passwords of eight characters or more
5. Do not access your account from a public computer such as in a library, hotel, internet café, or kiosk. These are more likely to be infected with a virus or spying malware that can compromise your login credentials or account information.
