what's the name of this calligraphic typeface?
Could be hand-lettered. Unfortunately, there are no duplicate letters that might help prove this either way. It doesn't look familiar to me, for what that's worth.

EF La Salle, Scriptorama Tradeshow and Coffee Service have a similar feel but not exact. My initial thought was that it was from a Sign Lettering foundry like 'Sign DNA' but I couldn't pin it down.
Note: Searched all of the scripts on Sign DNA, Letterhead Fonts and Veer. Nada.

The Alabama-based private equity group recently bought Grounds Unlimited and has made other moves.
McKinney Capital is growing its presence in the landscaping arena.
Before the end of 2012, the Birmingham-based private equity group said it bought Grounds Unlimited, which ranked fourth on our most recent list of Birmingham's largest landscaping firms, and merged Memphis, Tenn.-based Environmental Landscape Services with another landscaping business the firm already owns, said McKinney Managing Director Sam Eskildsen.
By the end of this year, Grounds Unlimited will be merged with Landscape Workshop, the business that Environmental Landscape Services just merged with, Eskildsen said.
"The overall goal is to make Landscape Workshop the number one landscaping business in the Southeast," he said, "and we're very close."
Eskildsen declined to disclose group revenues and purchase prices.

My parents gave me 5k and said good luck as I was a walking talking fuck up to that point in my life, prolly still am now :} . It was/is a lot of $ for them. Now that I have a nephew that is going thru the same scenario (gf and without a job), I just wrote him a letter telling him how I am passing this same 5k to him the history behind it and hope that he can fwd this $ to the next family member when he see that they are in need.
I am so bless/grateful for all the things in my life
is an attitude that will take you far.
Think of the haters in your life as sandpaper; theyll scratch you up time and time again but in the end youre polished, smooth, and spotless..while they end up useless
We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.
I'm glad that things are looking up for you and that you are in a position to help others in need.
The most difficult times for many of us are the ones we give ourselves.

Alex Constantin agreed to a marriage of convenience to Tatiana Beaufort because this inexperienced young woman intrigued him. But on their wedding night she asked for a year's grace before making theirs a "real" marriage--insisting on single beds!
A year on, Tattie is both alarmed and tempted when her husband suggests they become lovers at last. But she is just as determined that she will not become his proper wife until Alex says, "I love you."
He pushed his chair back and swivelled it so that he could watch the sun set over Darwin and the Timor Sea as he thought about the evening ahead. His wife, uncharacteristically, had been more than happy to allow his parents carte blanche in organising the festivities - she was only now due to fly into Darwin.
His mother, not uncharacteristically, had been delighted to take on the task and the family home, one of them, would be polished to within an inch of its life and glowing with flowers. Mountains of delicious food would be in the last stages of preparation for the buffet supper and the long veranda would be cleared for dancing.
So far so good, he thought drily. What his mother had not dreamt, and what he'd only become aware of when she'd blithely dropped by the invitation list earlier in the day, was that she'd invited his ex-mistress, whose name was known to his wife, to be amongst the hundred or so people celebrating his first wedding anniversary ...
A discreet knock on the door interrupted his reflections and his devoted secretary, Paula Gibbs, came in with the last of the dictation he had given her - and the slim, colourful gift box he'd asked her to get out of the safe before she left for the day.
"Thanks, Paula," Alex said, and motioned her to sit down while he signed the letters. He pushed them back across the desk to her and his hand hovered over the present. "Would you like to see it?"
"I'd love to!"
Alex opened the box, studied the contents for a moment, then with a shrug pushed it across towards Paula.
She picked up the box and let out a little gasp. "It's beautiful! I knew it would be pearls, but diamonds as well! And Argyle pinks if I'm not mistaken."
"You're not," Alex said wryly, and added in answer to the query in his secretary's eye, "Giving her Constantin pearls would be a bit like giving coals to Newcastle. At least she'll know I had to buy the diamonds."
Paula closed the box after a last lingering look at the pearl necklace with its beautiful diamond clasp. Then she said firmly, "But Mrs Constantin isn't like that, I'm sure."
He replied, after a moment's thought and with a fleeting smile, "No, Mrs Constantin is not like that at all, Paula." But he was suddenly and insanely tempted to add - Would the real Mrs Constantin please stand up?
He stood up himself instead, because Paula was an ardent fan of his wife, and, anyway, his problems were his alone. But the question was still on his mind as he drove the short few blocks home to the apartment that faced Bicentennial Park and Lameroo Beach. It had been a cause of some amusement for his wife that the Sultan of Brunei was reputed to own the penthouse in the same building. "Are you in the same class wealth-wise as the Sultan of Brunei, Alex?" she'd asked with a gleam of sparkling fun in her blue eyes.
He'd denied the charge in all honesty, adding that the Constantin family fortune, added to the Beaufort fortune which she herself had inherited, would probably be less than small change to the Sultan of Brunei and, indeed, the Paspaley family which had pioneered cultured-pearl farming in the Northern Territory and the Kimberley region of Western Australia.
"But you've also done very nicely out of pearls, thank you, haven't you, Alex?" she'd remarked, and added,
"Plus the cattle stations, cruise boats et al?"
He'd agreed, but pointed out that she had also done very well out of her family's fortune.
"True." She'd glanced at him with a question in those stunning blue eyes.
"I only make the point because you seem to hold my family fortune in a certain sort of low esteem," he'd said.
"Is it because I'm only a first-generation Australian of Greek descent whereas the Beauforts go back to the pioneering roots of this part of the country?"
"Darling," his wife had said, "I never make those kind of judgements. The Beauforts may have been around these parts for a long time but your family is a model of propriety compared to some of my ancestors."
"So why do you look condescending at times?"
She'd shrugged. "Sorry. Didn't mean to. But perhaps some of your Greek family's customs don't entirely impress me. I'll leave you to work out which one in particular." And she'd flitted away before he'd had the chance to remind her that her own mother, who had Russian blood in her, had actively participated in the custom she was referring to ...
All this was still on his mind as he took the lift to their apartment, and all the illuminated rooms told him that his wife had arrived back from Perth on schedule. In fact, as her bedroom door was open and Sibelius was pouring out Finlandia from her CD player, he was able to observe Tatiana Constantin née Beaufort unseen and at his leisure.
She was dressed and applying her make-up. Her dress was long, strapless, and clung to her figure. It was the same cornflower-blue as her eyes and her dark hair was in a loose, shining bob to her shoulders. At five feet two, she was petite with a delicate figure and smooth, pale skin.
But his wife always had an air of vitality about her, often even suppressed excitement. He'd taken it for a girlish attribute at first - she was only twenty-one now - with not a great deal of substance behind it.
Then again, he'd taken a lot about Tatiana Beaufort on face value when he'd allowed his parents and her mother to manoeuvre them into an arranged marriage. So it had come as something of a surprise when she'd told him unemotionally on their wedding night that she was aware of its orchestration. She was even aware that he had a mistress, she even knew her name. And he'd had to revise his opinions of his wife further when she'd suggested that a year's grace for them both might be a good idea. A year, at least, for her to make up her mind whether to make it a real marriage.
He had agreed and, a year later, was still revising his opinions. Yes, there was something irrepressible about Tatiana Beaufort, there probably always would be, but he'd been wrong about the lack of substance. Just how to quantify it was not so simple, however.
There was no doubt she'd made the best of this first year of their 'marriage in name only' or marriage by contract, as she'd called it. She'd relished the role of mistress of his several homes, breathing life and comfort and colour into them. She'd entertained with charm and originality. She'd travelled extensively with him and given the appearance of being a proper wife to the outside world, and she'd been genuinely interested in the process of cultivating pearls.
She had also added stature to the Constantin family by means of her charity work. She was a born social worker and she spent a lot of time working unpaid in a legal aid office. The only thing she hadn't done to date to completely fulfil his parents' expectations was to present them with a grandchild. Which, of course, was what it had all been about in the first place.
His parents were deeply family oriented, and it had been a cross to bear that they'd only been able to have one child. Therefore all their hopes rested on him, and they took an abiding interest in every aspect of his life. Occasionally this was claustrophobic and exasperating, but mostly he bore it with equanimity and did his own thing anyway. But when he'd reached thirty and shown no inclination to marry and provide the dynasty with heirs his mother had decided to take matters into her own hands.

Old muscles
I set up the framework for a section of chain link fence yesterday. The day before, I dragged around some 4x4 lumber for garden perimeters.
I'm no spring chicken, and I have been sedentary for a few years, so my muscles are screaming.
They'll get used to it:)
I've been doing various gardening stuff for about a month now, almost daily, and even though there are aches and pains I'm starting to feel better physically. I know a couple of ladies in my immediate neighborhood that don't garden and actually don't exercise at all. I think for older people and for all people it makes one feel better to get outside and do hard physical work as opposed to sitting in front of a tv or computer all day.
Gardening is great exercise and also exercise with a purpose (as opposed to being on a treadmill). I work at a computer all day and even *that* goes better when I am out working in the garden in the evening! Good for all of us, for kicking the sedentary habit.
I agree being outside when the sun is warm, the birds are singing, the air is fresh, and puttering around in a garden, not only improves the body but does wonders for ones mind too. It always gives me a sense of achievement, of doing something worthwhile, and being more alive. When I am my garden all is good, :-)
Aside from the physical aspect, I would be insane by now if I didn't get to come home from the hell that is Chemistry and Calculus consecutively and work in the garden. Its not quite enough exercise at my age but the effects on the mind are priceless. Nothing like sipping a good beer and watching the garden grow to remind me of what life is about in a stressful world.
Older muscles here too. I pulled my back muscle in the garden this spring and ended up at PT. I didn't realize how de conditioned I was. I have underlying medical issues that keep me inactive for periods of time and that unravels the muscles I manage to build up in the garden.
I'm back in the garden and comfortable again and now I've added more structured exercise and stretching to my routine. I've done that before but I do get off track. I think it is essential at my age to work as hard as I can to build muscle and keep it. Flexibility doesn't hurt either.
One thing the PT person said that sticks with me. I was explaining that I thought my brain/muscle connections were all rusty at first but that I felt them starting to feel a better connection. She said for the first 6 weeks you begin using muscles you haven't used in awhile, your brain is 'recruiting' your muscles and you don't really start seeing any building muscle results that first 6 weeks, then you can see steady progress after that.
Definitely never going to have the muscles I had in my 20s or 30s again though. :-)

Comments about HP ScanJet G4050 Scanner:
I purchased my first G4050 photo scanner years ago. It has had thousands of pictures, slides and 35mm neg. strips processed through it. It has been a joy to use. I am not a tech. type person, but the hook up was fast and easy, and the use of my scanner is intuitive, it guided me along smoothly and quickly. From the very first time until my son decided it would be perfect for him also. Soooo, I have just ordered another G4050. Im sure I will not be disappointed. The adjustments you can make to a scan have been very helpful. If they keep making these units, I will continue to buy them
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Just Installed
Comments about HP ScanJet G4050 Scanner:
We just installed this scanner for public use and have not had any issues so far.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Makes me look like I know what I'm doing
Comments about HP ScanJet G4050 Scanner:
I had to get a new scanner for a history book project that required hi-res scans, which I was able to do like a pro. Was even able to scan iffy images from thirty-year-old 2-1/4 contact sheets at high-enough quality to be usable for print publication. The scanner even did legal-sized transparencies as well as 35mm slides.
The scanner program gives you the ability to tweak the images (sharpening, color values, size, etc.) while scanning. Very helpful. The thing is also pretty solid and the lid is heavy, which puts a bit more pressure on material that's been a little crinkled or warped.
I read many reviews/product evaluations on tech sites before buying. Spent more money on the scanner than I would have if I'd only needed to replace my old HP document scanner, but the results are worth it.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

HP Scanjet G4050 is versatile and quiet
Comments about HP ScanJet G4050 Scanner:
This is my second G4050 and is just as reliable as my first one, but much quieter. You don't hear a blower fan start on power up, and the scan sweep sound is barely perceptible to other workers closeby. The unit is handsome and compact as well, and has a dignity all its own. The setup instructions are entirely pictorial with very clear and large figures showing exactly what goes where in the hookup, which uses fool-proof connectors that will not go into a wrong socket, even if you try. No heat is given off either during repeated uses.

Scanning 16 slides didn't work
By abey

Comments about HP ScanJet G4050 Scanner:
I purchased the Scanner G4050 because of its ability to scan up to 16 slides at one time. Unfortunately, this feature did not work. I sought the help of the HP Support team but on two separate occasions, they were unable to resolve the problem. Very disappointed and have to return the device for credit.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Easy to use

Comments about HP ScanJet G4050 Scanner:
I was going crazy trying to scan all our family photos using my business "all in one". Plugged in my new HP and started up without a hitch. It is very easy to use and very fast. The 16 slide adapter was not only a bonus but is amazing. Great product for home photo and slide scanning.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Love the negative holding trays . . .

Comments about HP ScanJet G4050 Scanner:
I bought this to replace an old scanner that is no longer supported. My old device was great, and this one is even better. Warm up time is quick. I installed the software on a Windows 8 laptop. The software is intuitive and friendly. My favorite feature is a set of negative holders that hold multiple strips of slides. Love HP products, and this is a great addition.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about HP ScanJet G4050 Scanner:
Scans documents, photos and slides. will not scan negatives. Backlight will come on for slides and will not come on for negatives. This appears to be a software failure not an equipment failure. As this is a replacement for the first scanner which was delivered two weeks ago and had exactly the same failure I am in despair. Contacting HP over the failure of the first failure was a nightmare of being switched from one operator to another and finally back to sales who decided the best answer was to replace. In addition, the instruction manual frequently refers to software which a one liner on the set up documentation says is no longer included. This is not acceptable. Here's hoping that this review brings a sensible reply from someone.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I like the slide scanning feature.
By Pedalpower
from Iowa
Comments about HP ScanJet G4050 Scanner:
I had to replace my old HP scanner because a driver was not available for Windows 7. I chose the ScanJet G4050 because of its slide scanning feature as I have hundreds of slides from the pre-digital age that I would like to get into digital format. I hesitated choosing this scanner because of the negative comments on setting it up. I could not find another scanner that I would rather have so I decided to take a chance on it. The scanner setup went flawlessly as described in the User's Guide. I have scanned one newspaper article and a couple of slides to my satisfaction. Based on my experience, so far, I would recommend this scanner.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Better than I expected.
By kchisos
from Santa Fe, NM
Comments about HP ScanJet G4050 Scanner:
I was reluctant to buy another scanner, since all the scanners I've used before gave such poor results when scanning printed photographs. The HP Scanjet G4050 was a pleasant surprise. The color of the digital scan is very, very close to the original prints. A couple of years ago, I lost all my digital photographs due to a hard-drive crash. I foolishly did not have my files backed up at the time. I lost several dozen art-photos. Fortunately, I had 8 x 10 prints made of most of them, which I still have in inventory. I am now able to replace those digital files in a matter well enough to produce up to 11 x 14 inch prints that mimic almost exactly the original photographs. I am very happy with the quality versus the purchase price. I highly recommend this scanner for the casual and professional photographer.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Stage set for Twickenham tussle
ESPNscrum Staff
August 4, 2011
Fly-half Stephen Jones is set to make a record 101st appearance for Wales on Saturday © Getty Images
England and Wales have named their sides for this Saturday's sold-out Rugby World Cup warm-up clash at Twickenham.
Leicester centre Manu Tuilagi is set to make his first Test start in a new-look England midfield alongside returning Wasps playmaker Riki Flutey who gets a start for the first time since the 2010 Six Nations. Saracens lock Mouritz Botha and Gloucester wing Charlie Sharples are both primed to make their Test debuts off the bench while prop Matt Stevens makes his first international appearance for almost three years having recently completed a two-year drugs ban.
London Irish fullback Delon Armitage is another to get a start for the first time since the 2010 Six Nations while Lewis Moody, who missed the Six Nations title campaign with knee ligament damage, returns to captain the team at openside.
Blindside Tom Croft and No.8 James Haskell complete the back-row with Matt Banahan and Mark Cueto starting on the wings while Jonny Wilkinson and Danny Care fill the half-back slots in a strong but experimental England line-up.
Stephen Jones will become Wales' most capped player after being named at fly-half for Saturday's clash. The Scarlets playmaker will make his 101st appearance - and will be partnered by Mike Phillips at half-back - while Rhys Priestland will start at fullback in place of Morgan Stoddart who faced the Barbarians in June. Jamie Roberts also makes his comeback to the national side and will start at inside centre in place of Gavin Henson while Shane Williams replaces Aled Brew on the wing.
Up front prop Craig Mitchell comes in for Ryan Bevington, who moves to the bench, with Paul James switching sides of the scrum. The second-row sees the return of Bradley Davies and Alun Wyn-Jones - who wins his 50th cap - and they will replace Ryan Jones and Luke Charteris who both move to the bench. The young back-row which started against the Barbarians is retained with Sam Warburton, Toby Faletau and Dan Lydiate all featuring from the off. Warburton retains the captaincy following an injury to Matthew Rees.
England: D Armitage (London Irish); M Banahan (Bath Rugby), M Tuilagi (Leicester Tigers), R Flutey (London Wasps), M Cueto (Sale Sharks); J Wilkinson (Toulon), D Care (Harlequins); A Corbisiero (London Irish), D Hartley (Northampton Saints), M Stevens (Saracens), S Shaw (Unattached), T Palmer (Stade Francais), T Croft (Leicester Tigers), L Moody (Bath Rugby, capt), J Haskell (Ricoh Black Rams).
Replacements: L Mears (Bath Rugby), D Wilson (Bath Rugby), M Botha (Saracens), T Wood (Northampton Saints), R Wigglesworth (Saracens), C Hodgson (Saracens), C Sharples (Gloucester Rugby).
Wales: Rhys Priestland; George North, Jonathan Davies, Jamie Roberts, Shane Williams; Stephen Jones, Michael Phillips; Paul James, Huw Bennett, Craig Mitchell, Bradley Davies, Alun Wyn Jones, Dan Lydiate, Sam Warburton (C), Toby Faletau.
Replacements: Lloyd Burns, Ryan Bevington, Luke Charteris, Ryan Jones, Tavis Knoyle, Scott Williams, Morgan Stoddart

|Charismatic Chronicles – A Broody Beginning – September 27th 1998
Welcome to the very first edition of Charismatic Chronicles where we will be taking a look back at moments of Christian's career. Whether you're an old fan or a more recent one, we're sure that you will enjoy reliving or discovering the moments that made Christian who he is today. What better place to start than with one very special moment which happened on this very day, sixteen years ago.
Edge who was competing in a match against Owen Hart, was building up momentum against his fellow Canadian when, a mysterious figure, who looked somewhat like Edge, with the flowing blonde hair and wearing dark shades, suddenly appeared jumping the barricade and watching the match continue on from outside of the ring, after hitting Owen Hart with with a spinning heel kick, knocking him down to the mat, Edge turned around, noticing the onlooker and immediately becoming distracted, asking what he was doing there.
All of a sudden, Owen Hart quickly recovering from the kick grabbed Edge and scored the pin-fall, winning the match, after a quick roll up. During all of this, the unknown onlooker had vanished, jumping back over the barricade and disappearing in to the crowd. As soon as Edge gathered his senses and realised what had just happened, he quickly made it out of the ring and followed the individual through the crowd.
|Instant-Classic.org – Celebrating 6 Years Online!
Today, I'm proud to say that Instant-Classic.org / Jay-Reso.com has been online for six years. And I told myself that it would only last two weeks! Ha! (Yes, I know that I say that each and every year)
I can't believe that it's already been six years, it still feel as if it were only yesterday when I was even considering making a website. To think it all started because a few friends and I were complaining that there were no active fansites for Captain Charisma and over the years the site has grown so much and become one of longest running and leading resource for everything Christian and his amazing career. I honestly can't believe how far the site has come over the years and I can truly say that I am so proud with how this site has grown. I've been lucky enough to meet great people, most of whom I can still happily call friends and none of it would have been possible if I hadn't started IC. The site, as well as myself personally, has been through so many ups and downs during the years, but just like Christian, himself, we just keep bouncing back, better than ever.
I just wanted to say thank you, to each and every one of you out there who have ever visited the site, anyone who has donated anything, commented or even taken the time to send messages to me over IC's social networks. I always, ALWAYS have to say a special thank you to Carmisha and David, you guys are the reason why Instant-Classic.org is here in the first place. None of this would be possible without your constant support, I wouldn't still be here if it wasn't for you guys and that goes for everyone!
One more special thank you goes out to the man himself, Christian. You truly are an amazing and talented individual, with an already legendary career that just continues to grow. You've been and continue to be an inspiration to so many people out there, including myself and I'm so, so proud to call myself a fan of yours, even though honestly, that's probably an understatement. Thank you for everything. For what you've done to entertain people all over the world and also for the support that you have shown me, you have no idea how much it really means to me and I, as well as the peeps all around the world can't wait to see you get back in the ring once again!
Once more, thank you to each and every one of you out there, just know that I appreciate every bit of support that all of you have ever shown me over the years. Here's to yet another year and hopefully many more to come!!
|Edge Mentions Christian In Recent Interview With The Rack
In a recent interview with Wild Talk Radio Network's The Rack, WWE Hall of Famer and one of the current stars of SyFy's Haven, Adam 'Edge' Copeland discussed several topics, including his favourite Edge and Christian moment and how he and Christian found out about each other's pregnancies. You can listen to the full interview here, here's what he had to say about Christian:
|Night Of Champions 2014 Coverage
We go to the ring and out comes Christian to a big pop for a The Peep Show. Christian says he's missed us a lot. He says tonight isn't about him, it's Night of Champions. Christian says one match has his interest tonight – Randy Orton vs. Chris Jericho. Christian brings out Jericho to the ring, who comes out to a big pop. Jericho is excited to be on The Peep Show and even more excited to have Christian here.
They jokingly argue about when they used to team together. Jericho apologizes for not wearing pants to The Peep Show. They start talking about Randy Orton and Orton interrupts on the big screen. Orton takes credit for Christian not being able to wrestle any more. Orton says when he's done with Jericho tonight, the only TV show he'll be able to appear on is Total Divas. Jericho says Orton's show would be Total Jackass. Jericho fires back at Orton and tells him not to forget who he's facing tonight.

Airbnb is a way to have a houseful, which is what I like.
Ever since I was a kid doing sleepovers and overnighters to my first job out of college as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Turkey all through my long and longer life, I've loved every place I've ever visited. So maybe that's why I want to return all the great hospitality I've received.
These days I'm a realtime captioner for hard of hearing. Which means I go to classes, meetings, conferences with students (or staff or faculty) primarily at the University of Washington and write live everything being said so the student can read it on my computer screen as it's happening. You've seen closed captioning on TV? It's like that, only I'm there live on site. Love my job. It's challenging (that is to say, hard) and can be stressful, but I am glad to be a vehicle for access to education and the workplace that people wouldn't have without that service. The service is provided under auspices of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
There are so many things to do in Seattle, and I am happy to give you information and ideas for your stay -- or just get out of your way and let you have at it!

Brent, the tour guide, looked like he could have been on f the project administrators as we toured the Bunker, where Congress would have been evacuated to in the event of nuclear targeting of Washington (there are other bunkers around the country for other branches and functions of government). The tour and information were layed out efficiently and informatively, going back and forth between the government's intentions and the impact on the local community, and interwoven with how the Greenbrier upper management and the Fed handled all the questions and issues that arose. A very cool tour.

National Defense:
Tactical Missile Consolidation
NSIAD-93-156R: Published: Mar 11, 1993. Publicly Released: Mar 11, 1993.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided the results of its review of the Department of Defense's (DOD) plan for depot-level tactical missile maintenance consolidation, focusing on the plans': (1) cost-effectiveness; (2) effects on missile readiness; and (3) impact on the environment. GAO found that: (1) DOD has delayed plans for tactical missile maintenance consolidation indefinitely due to a 1992 district court ruling that required it to use competitive procedures to determine which depot site should perform the work; (2) DOD tactical missile maintenance consolidation could be accomplished without adversely impacting missile system readiness but it could not accurately assess the adequacy or extent that maintenance consolidation affected readiness plans or was cost effective; and (3) although the Army did not independently assess the impact of tactical missile maintenance consolidation on the environment, it concluded that consolidation would not have a significant environmental impact and that several initiatives existed to reduce existing environmental pollutants.

A film coating for use in combination with an in-vivo signal generating reference electrode coupled to a condition responsive means and adapted to sense a condition of a body fluid within the host, wherein the film coating comprises a silicone based polymer having adhesive and cohesive properties performing an adherent and coherent film coating upon the signal generating reference electrode, and wherein the film contains potassium chloride therewithin in a concentration range between 20 and 40 milligrams per gram of polymer solids. The cross sectional thickness of the cured film is sufficiently large so as to stabilize and improve the mechanical properties of the electrode components, but sufficiently limited so as to reduce any adverse effect upon cell response.
1. In combination; a pulse generator for a pacer adapted to periodically stimulate the heart tissue of a host and wherein the pulse generator comprises a power source with circuitry being coupled to the power source for generating periodic heart stimulation signals and with leads being coupled to the circuitry for delivering stimulation signals to the heart tissue, and a condition responsive electrical signal generating electrode adapted to be in direct contact with the blood of the host and responsive to the pH level of the blood of the host, and with said signal generating electrode being coupled to a signal pick-up means within the pulse generator portion of the combination, said combination being characterized in that:
(a) the signal generating electrode is a silver/silver chloride reference electrode having a condition responsive and active outer surface, a blood contacting film coating extending over said active outer surface and in direct surface-to-surface contact therewith; and
(b) the film coating having a thickness of about 5 mils and being a silicone polymer containing potassium chloride solids dispersed within the silicone polymer film, said silicone polymer containing between about 20 and 40 milligrams of potassium chloride per gram of silicone polymer solids.
2. The combination of claim 1 being particularly characterized in that the potassium chloride is included at a level of about 30 milligrams of potassium chloride per gram of silicone polymer solids.
3. The combination as defined in claim 2 being particularly characterized in that said silicone polymer film has a thickness of about 5 mils.
This is a continuation of application Ser. No. 447,436, filed Dec. 6, 1982, now abandoned.
The present invention relates generally to an improved reference electrode system for monitoring certain parameters of blood, and more particularly to an improved coating for a reference electrode which is stable over extended periods of use, and thus capable of providing utility for an implantable device for the long-term and substantially continuous monitoring of blood parameters. Reference electrodes have been found useful in a number of blood monitoring applications, particularly in connection with determination of certain blood constituents, including pH, PCO2 and the like. In these applications reference electrodes may be utilized as condition responsive sensors to determine the presence of these certain constituents and particularly when continuous long term monitoring is either necessary or desirable. One application for the apparatus of the present invention is as a coated reference electrode for determining certain constituents of blood, and wherein the electrode is used in combination with an implantable cardiac pacer device. Such an arrangement utilizes the improved electrode for controlling one or more of the operating parameters of an implanted pacer while the pacer is being employed in connection with the long-term pacing of a patient's heart. In such an arrangement, operational parameters of the pacer will be determined in part by the condition responsive blood monitoring sensor of the present invention.
In the utilization of reference electrodes for blood monitoring applications, it is desirable, if not requisite, that the reference electrode be selected so as to be entirely passive to the tissue in the patients system. Adverse tissue reactions, such as inflammatory reactions and the like must be avoided, particularly when considering the utilization of the reference electrode for long term implantation applications. The coating of the present invention includes the utilization of a membrane having good electrical and mechanical properties while acting to physically separate the surface of the reference electrode from direct contact with the blood. This membrane must, of course, be sufficiently permeable to blood or at least to the constituents being measured so as to provide accurate, responsive, and reliable signals. Furthermore, the cross-sectional thickness of the film must be sufficiently limited so as to permit reasonable response times for the reference electrode, while being sufficient to provide surface isolation along with mechanical durability.
In connection with the present invention, the reference electrode is preferably silver/silver chloride, with such an electrode being desireable from the standpoint of reliability and stability within the hostile environment of the host body. However, silver chloride/silver when used alone has been found to be somewhat inflammatory toward human tissue. In accordance with the present invention, however, the silver chloride/silver reference electrodes are rendered essentially passive to tissue through encapsulation or coating of the reference electrode with the film prepared in accordance with the present invention. Also, the silver chloride portion of the reference electrode tends to be somewhat frangible, and the film coating of the present invention improves the durability and mechanical properties of the electrode. The coating material may find utility when used in combination with materials other than silver/silver chloride.
Briefly, in accordance with the present invention, the reference electrode, preferably silver/silver chloride, is coated with a thin film of a silicone base polymer having both adhesive and cohesive properties, with the film containing saturated potassium chloride in a concentration range of between about 20 milligrams and 40 milligrams of KCl per gram of silicone polymer solids. Normally, the thickness of the film is between about 3 and 8 mils, with film thicknesses of between about 3 mils and 6 mils being preferred. Silicone base polymers, of course, are suitably adapted for long term implantation applications, and have been approved in the past by the Food and Drug Administration for such application.
The utilization of potassium chloride in the silicone base polymer enhances the properties of the reference electrode and, being in physical contact with the reference electrode, contributes to the overall operation of the cell. Silver/silver chloride is preferred as a reference electrode since its potential is stable when employed as a half-cell in in-vivo applications.
The utilization of a silicone base polymer in accordance with the present invention increases tissue-electrode compatibility, and has been found to reduce, if not eliminate adverse tissue reactions, such as inflammation, and furthermore has been found to reduce the incidence of tissue fibrosis. The utilization of the film coating of the present invention also significantly reduces electro catalytic activity of the reference electrode while it is retained within the host body.
Therefore, it is a primary object of the present invention to provide an improved tissue compatible film coating for use in combination with a reference electrode for in-vivo sensing applications, including use as a long-term blood monitor within a host body.
It is yet a further object of the present invention to provide an improved film coating for use in combination with a reference electrode for in-vivo sensing of a condition within the host, and wherein the film coating is fabricated from a silicone base polymer containing crystalline potassium chloride therewithin.
Other and further objects of the present invention will become apparent from a study of the following specification, appended claims and accompanying drawing.
FIG. 1 is a side elevational view of a typical cardiac pacer device incorporating a silver/silver chloride reference electrode on one surface thereof and wherein the reference electrode is provided with a film coating, all in accordance with the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the electrode portion of a cardiac pacer lead, when wherein a reference electrode is secured to and mounted upon the tip portion of the lead for blood monitoring application;
FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along the line and in the direction of the arrows 3--3 of FIG. 1;
FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken diametrically through the leads of FIG. 2, and along the line and in the direction of the arrows 4--4 of FIG. 2; and
FIG. 5 is a graph of the electrical potentials obtained with the present invention.
In accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and with particular attention being directed to FIGS. 1 and 3 of the drawing, the implantable cardiac pacer device generally designated 10 includes an hermetrically sealed pulse generator container 11 along with a lead receptacle portion 12 incorporated thereon. Shown mounted upon the surface of the lead receptacle 12 of the pacer 10 is a reference electrode assembly 13 which, as indicated, is in the form of a silver/silver chloride half cell. Typically, the reference electrode is formed by pressing a silver chloride pellet such as shown at 14 (FIG. 3) onto a silver substrate, with the electrode assembly thereafter being disposed along the surface of the pacer, preferably along the electrically insulative lead receptacle portion. Also, as will be apparent, the silver/silver chloride reference electrode is electrically coupled to the circuitry of the pacer through conductive lead 15A, the electrode assembly 13 being a signal generator responsive to the quantitative characteristics of certain blood constituents. The film coating 15 is generally in the range from about 3 mils to 10 mils, and preferably is about 3 mils in thickness. The film coating is a silicone base polymer suitable for long term implantation. Such silicone base polymers are, of course, commercially available, with one such polymer being available commercially under the designation "Silicone Type A" from Dow Corning Corp. of Midland, Mich., under the code name "Silastic Medical Adhesive" with preparation details for the film to be ultimately formulated being provided hereinafter.
With attention being directed to FIGS. 2 and 4, an alternate embodiment for the arrangement of the present invention is shown with this embodiment, utilizing a somewhat different form of reference electrode. In the embodiment of FIG. 2, the lead generally designated 17 is adapted to be electrically and mechanically coupled to the pulse generating circuitry of an implantable pacer through a lead receptacle 12 of the pacer of FIG. 1, with the reference electrode of the present invention, being alternatively situated along the surface of the lead. In the arrangement of FIG. 2, a typical cardiac stimulating and sensing electrode is shown generally at 16, with electrode 18 being disposed at the distal tip of the lead. Stimulating and sensing electrode 18 may be referred to as the active electrode. A insulative coating, typically a silicone based polymer, isolates the internal conductors, as illustrated at 19 and 20 from the body of the host. These internal conductors are utilized to couple the active electrode and the reference electrode to the pertinent components of the pulse generating circuitry. Such insulative coverings and internal conductors are, of course, well known in the art. Pacer leads having electrodes such as shown at 18 are in common use today, and with the exception of being provided with the reference electrode of the present invention, are commercially available. In the present instance, and as illustrated in FIG. 2, a reference electrode, such as reference electrode 21 is added to the lead configuration. The reference electrode 21 is a silver/silver chloride electrode shown in the configuration of an annular ring surrounding the lead assembly. Typically, the annular ring may be fabricated utilizing a substrate ring consisting of silver metal with edge flanges, and with a pellet of silver chloride being compressed as an annulus or annular ring into a cavity zone formed in the substrate ring. Depending upon the application, the silver chloride pellet may be in any convenient form, such as in the form of annular ring 22 as shown, and pressed into the silver substrate 23. This reference electrode is, in turn, coated with a film of silicone base polymer 24, containing crystalline potassium chloride therewithing. Alternatively, and in place of a closed and continuous ring, the pellet and substrate may comprise an arcuate segment only of an annular ring, such as an arcuate segment of about 90� or more.
In FIGS. 3 and 4, cross sections of the electrodes illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 respectively are illustrated, with each figure showing the physical arrangement of the silver metal substrate, the silver chloride pellet portion, and the film coating portion encapsulating the pellet and substrate.
Signal generating reference electrodes are desirable for use in long term blood monitoring applications. These signal generating reference electrodes are condition responsive, that is, provide a signal the amplitude of which varies in response to the condition being sensed. The signal generated by the reference electrode is, in turn, coupled to a signal pick-up means within the pulse generator portion of the pacer device. In this fashion, therefore, the reference electrode has the capability of sensing certain blood parameters, thereby determining certain conditions of the blood within the body of the host. In one application, the pH of blood may be determined by the reference electrode, with the silver/silver chloride cell providing an output signal with an amplitude indicitive of blood pH. With a film coating of a silicone polymer containing potassium chloride in a concentration of 30 milligrams per gram of silicone polymer solids, and with a film thickness of 5 mils, an electrical potential change of 56 mv/pH unit change was generated for pH variations in blood. It will be appreciated that changes in concentration of potassium chloride will result in corresponding changes in output level for the reference electrode, with such changes occurring under constant pH conditions. In the obtaining of data for FIG. 5, a silver/silver chloride pellet was utilized having a disc configuration, and being 5 mm in diameter, and 3 mm thick, and being held as a compress within a metallic silver substrate and exposed to blood. The electrical potentials obtained as shown in FIG. 5 were measured with reference to iridium/iridium oxide.
Cardiac pacer devices utilizing reference electrodes for determining blood pH have been known in the past. One such cardiac pacer device utilizing a reference electrode of silver/silver chloride is disclosed in Alcidi U.S. Pat. No. 4,009,721. However, the feature of the present invention permits long-term implantation of such a reference electrode without exposing the patient to problems of tissue irritation, inflammation, or the like.
In forming the active encapsulating or protective films of the present invention, Dow Corning Silastic Medical Adhesive Silicone Type A consisting essentially of a silicone base polymer was employed. In this application, Silastic, Medical Adhesive Silicone Type A (Dow Corning Medical Adhesive) silicone material was employed, with such materials being commercially available. A review of the chemistry, manufacture and uses of silicone polymers generally is given in "Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Technology," Lichtenwalner et al, Volume 12 (Innerscience, New York, 1970) pp. 464-569.
In preparing the film, the silicone base polymer was thinned with a primer of 50:50 hexane/heptane by volume, with the polymer/primer mixture then being doped with potassium chloride crystals. Hexane/heptane primers are typically used with silicone polymers. After achieving an appropriate viscosity, the thinned-doped material was applied as a coating to the electrode. The potassium chloride present in the primer, remains in the polymer film, as shown in the drawing, and enhances the electrical properties of the cured film. The presence of potassium chloride in the polymer matrix provides for electrical conductivity in the film, and also provides for such conductivity without adverse reaction toward surrounding tissue.

A group of legislators is proposing to rename a section of Colorado 93 in honor of Jeffco sheriff's Sgt. David Baldwin, who died Jan. 26, 2014, when his motorcycle was struck by another vehicle.
A bipartisan joint resolution by state Rep. Jon Keyser and co-sponsored by Rep. Jessie Danielson and state Sen. Cheri Jahn would rename the highway from mile marker zero to Colorado 72 the "JCSO Sergeant David M. Baldwin Memorial Highway." Baldwin was on duty at the time of the accident.
A zoning change to allow construction of a self-storage center on West Belleview Avenue just west of South Simms Street was approved Jan. 27 by Jeffco's county commissioners.
Commissioners Casey Tighe and Don Rosier voted to add a storage center to allowable uses for the 2.56-acre property under planned development zoning. The plan for the property, which is just west of a Comfort Dental and Walgreens, is for a 50,000-square-foot center with 460 storage units.
Jeffco once again has three county commissioners.
Former Republican state representative Libby Szabo was sworn in Jan. 30 as the newest commissioner. Szabo will serve the final two years of the term of Faye Griffin, who resigned after she was elected clerk and recorder in November.
History repeated itself for the Evergreen Lady Cougars' basketball team as they bested the Littleton Lions, 52-43, on Jan. 31 at the Lions Den, giving them their second win against the Lady Lions this season.
"Every time we come (to Littleton) we expect to play a scrappy game," said Evergreen girls basketball head coach Amy Bahl. "But we always manage to pull out the win."
By Craig Harper
For the Courier
EVERGREEN — Injuries and illness have made for a trying season for Evergreen's boys basketball team, especially in 4A Jeffco League play. But somehow the Cougars head into the next-to-last week of the regular season on a two-game-winning streak, though, par for the course, it wasn't easy.
Nine seconds. That's all the time that it took for the Dakota Ridge Eagles to spoil Senior Night for Columbine.
First-period goals from Tony Carpenito and Graehm Konsella — the first off a turnover and the second just 4 seconds after a Columbine penalty — ignited sixth-ranked Dakota Ridge to a 7-2 victory over 10th-ranked Columbine on Jan. 31 at The Edge Ice Arena.
Brogan Wallin remembers the play vividly. The then-Dakota Ridge junior, playing for her Front Range Volleyball Club team at the Colorado Crossroads national qualifier tournament in Denver, went up for a tight pass to pull the ball back to her team's side. She came down awkwardly on her right leg, her ACL shattered.
An arrest has been made in an incident in which a Jeffco deputy was dragged by a fleeing vehicle.
Andrey Pavlovich Mishenin, 23, was taken into custody Thursday at a hotel in Glendale without incident. The Rocky Mountain Safe Streets Task Force fugitive unit, along with the Jefferson County sheriff's fugitive unit, made the arrest.
Firefighters are trained to deal with physical trauma. Ambulances and fire engines are equipped with medical tools that can treat everything from broken bones to heart attacks.
But when it comes to mental trauma, like suicide attempts, first responders often are without any applicable tools or training. That led Littleton Fire Rescue Division Chief Wayne Zygowicz to develop a set of procedures for first responders to deal with suicidal patients and with family members.
The town of Bow Mar again is working with the owners of Southwest Plaza on a possible deal to annex the mall.
General Growth Properties, owner of Southwest Plaza, and Bow Mar first approached the county commissioners in June about a possible "flagpole" annexation that would have taken place late last year. But General Growth Properties decided to delay the annexation to give the town more time to analyze the ramifications.
A request for an interview was not returned by General Growth Properties by press time.

Does Sweet Tea like some sun?
Here is my Sweet Tea. I think she looks better in the photo than in person. About three years old. What is wrong? Does she like lots of sun?
I'm not sure where you reside, but some morning sun might do the trick to improve the color.
Here's a picture of my 'Sweet Tea' that's planted in sun until 11:30 a.m. As you can see, it greens up during the summer months. The pic was taken this morning.
Flower, yours looks perky and happy in June. That is what I would like to see. I don't think I have a location that just gets morning sun. Will have to figure something out.
dbarron: It is bushy but you somehow just know when a plant is healthy and happy and this one just is not. I would like better colour and more upright leaves. I really think a new location is in order.
Thanks for your input.

The other weed - what is this?

Here is the other pesty weed. This might be some kind of grass. They are very tall. Spread easy.
Do you know what this is?
Tiffany, purpleinopp GardenWeb, Z8b Opp, AL(8B AL)
Yeah. That's what's all over my yard, about half of the grass is that. Looks the same to me but if you see a difference, I believe you. I thought the little black things (the seeds I've always assumed) had already fallen off of the pictured plant. Do the 2 "seed holder" parts always make a "V?"

Play to win
Re the June 8 article Don't blame U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann for just being honest about World Cup chances: It's ridiculous that sports columnist David Neal makes excuses for a coach who tells his team and the world they cannot win. This coach needs to be shown the door.
One does not play any game to finish second. Even the Dolphins' hope at quarterback had every intention of winning the Miami Dolphins' Foundation Fins Weekend Fishing Tournament. Why else compete?
