There are a lot of adverse things to be said for life in southern Illinois, and the weather is among that number.
There are a lot of adverse things to be said for life in southern Illinois, and the weather is among that number.
Yesterday many of Southern Illinois's elected officials, and representatives of the fossil fuel industry, held a one-hour press conference to complain about the fact that the Illinois Department of Natural Resources has still not completed the rule-making process in order for fracking to begin in Illinois
Illinois' comptroller Judy Baar-Topinka is one of those perpetual government employees who apparently wants to keep the tradition going…and she's not above crossing the political aisle to get it done.
It's always an exciting thing when a local person in little old southern Illinois accomplishes such a thing as writing and having published a book.
Two groups of hikers were located at Garden of the Gods Sunday afternoon
….but South Counties might not be exempt.
Topics covered include: Lost load accident in White County damages Illinois Route 1 and gets a Noble man cited by ISP; 14 southern Illinoisans are indicted in a federal roundup of Medicaid fraud charges; and an accidental discharge of a weapon in Vincennes, Indiana, startles neighbors and makes headlines.
Fourteen people in Southern Illinois were charged today with defrauding the Medicaid home services program in Illinois by claiming money they were not owed.
Another weather system is moving across the Midwest today and tonight, and the threat of severe weather can be seen in the graphics and maps below, along with information from the National Weather Service out of Paducah, Ky., tells what we're in store for here in the readership area.

1927 Stanley Cup Finals
From Wikipedia
simple:Template:Infobox Stanley Cup FinalThe 1927 Stanley Cup Final NHL championship series was contested by the Ottawa Senators and the Boston Bruins. It was the first solely contested by National Hockey League teams since the demise of the Western Hockey League. As of 2009, the Cup has not been contested by teams outside the league. It was won by the Ottawa Senators, coached by Dave Gill, over the Boston Bruins, coached by Art Ross. This was the Senators' fourth win since 1920, and eleventh overall, but it marked the end of the dynasty. The original Senators did not win another.
The series
The Stanley Cup Final was technically a best of three series. However, it went four games because of two ties. At that time, if a match was tied after one twenty-minute overtime period, the game went in the books as a tie. These were the last ties in Stanley Cup history.
Rough play marred the series as in the final game, Hooley Smith cross-checked Boston's Harry Oliver and late in the game Billy Coutu attacked referee Jerry Laflamme and tackled referee Billy Bell. He was subsequently expelled for life. Hooley Smith was suspended for one month of the following season for his attack on Oliver.
The April 13, 1927, game at the Ottawa Auditorium was the last Stanley Cup Final game in Ottawa until the June 2, 2007, game played at Scotiabank Place between the modern Senators and the Anaheim Ducks. It is known that one fan, Russell Williams, attended both games, both won by Ottawa.[1]

The Flyers torched the Capitals last night 5-1. Apparently the referee felt like they were running up the score, because he laid one of the bigger hits of the night on Flyer Kimmo Timonen. He jumped up in the air and threw an elbow to the face of Kimmo. Probably would have caught a fine and suspension if he was in the NFL.

If the Democrats had done Their Jobs….
The current crisis has its genesis in the failure of the Democrats to pass spending bills for the fiscal year that began last Oct. 1 before Congress adjourned for the mid-term elections. In the wake of the Republican takeover of the House last November, GOP leaders have attempted to make good on a campaign pledge to slash domestic spending by as much as $100 billion.
But as the New York Times first reported, the talks collapsed last Tuesday. Congressional officials said the budget talks were set back significantly in a meeting when the participants feuded over what legislation should serve as the benchmark for the talks — a House-passed spending measure with $61 billion in cuts for this year or an interim budget bill approved by Congress in early March that maintained financing for most programs at their current levels.
Democrats, who believed they had an agreement to work off the interim plan, felt blindsided, officials told The Times. Jacob (Jack) Lew, White House budget director and chief Democratic negotiator, resisted the Republican push to use the House-passed measure (which couldn't pass the Senate) as the starting point and the meeting abruptly broke up.
House Majority Leader Rep. Eric Cantor, R-Va., said time is up and Congress needs to complete work on this year's spending bills and then focus on bigger problems. "We need to see Harry Reid and [Sen.] Chuck Schumer get serious," Cantor told reporters on Tuesday. "We need to see the president get involved."
Cantor reiterated a theme his party has complained about: that Senate Democrats have failed to offer a serious, comprehensive alternative to the Republicans' proposal for cutting $61 billion this year. "The Republicans don't want a government shutdown," Cantor added. "We just want to cut spending."
Those predicting a government shutdown argue that Cantor, Boehner and other GOP leaders are being kept on a short leash by conservative freshmen and Tea Party members – most of whom have had little experience in forging legislation and budget deals.
John M. Berry, a Fiscal Times columnist and former Washington Post economics reporter, said, "The House Republican leadership has lost control of their caucus because of the influx of inexperienced, newly elected members who neither understand nor care very much about what government does for ordinary people or the federal employees who serve them. It's going to take an extended shutdown for them to find out that people really do value a lot of what government does."
Ryan Alexander, President of Taxpayers for Common Sense, said "The House Republican majority can smell budgetary blood and demands for the full $61 billion in cuts will likely cause Democrats in the Senate and possibly the White House to dig in their heels."
Ross Baker, a political science professor and commentator, said: "This time it's for real. The crazies in Boehner's attic are rattling their cages and they won't be satisfied with another CR and they also won't accept anything less than the $61 Billion."
Ethan Pollack, senior policy analyst at the Economic Policy Institute, noted that "White House's recent offer is pretty much the same as what the GOP leadership initially pushed . . . before the Tea Partiers intimidated them into pushing for even more. This ensures that in the event of any shutdown the President will look far more reasonable and conciliatory, and it will be easier to pin the blame on the GOP – where, I should add, it squarely belongs."
Bixby, the Concord Coalition official, said "We're headed for a shutdown because a lot of people on both sides of the aisle see it as a potential political win. On the Republican side, this sentiment is not shared by the leadership, but enough members believe the public wants deep cuts that it will almost be impossible for leaders to cut a deal…before testing the shutdown waters. For their part, many Democrats seem convinced that a shutdown would result in a 1990's replay with Republicans taking the political hit. Their crocodile tears are flowing freely."
Jennifer DePaul contributed to this report, which originally appeared at The Fiscal Times.

Earth Day is April 22 and everyone in Sweetwater can easily do their part to help the environment. If you were unaware, Sweetwater has a refuse disposal and recycling drop-off center located at 807 W. Broadway and is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The drop-off center provides a spot for area residents and businesses to take their refuse for transit to a certified disposal site. The center also allows the public to bring their recyclables — metal, glass, cardboard, paper, tires, used motor oil and filters, brush and yard waste — at no cost.
Having this waste and recyclables center reduces the potential for illegal dumping and supports the 40% waste reduction goal set by Texas Legislation of 1991, but the responsibility also lies with the businesses and citizens of Sweetwater.
Sweetwater also has a landfill, located at 3000 W. Alabama and is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to noon and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturdays. Admittance to the landfill requires proof of residence in Sweetwater.

La Villa Collections
This ceramic canister is adorned with a traditional pattern in hues inspired by the hills and ancient ruins of Assisi, a small town in Umbria, Italy. The subtly uneven edges and gentle aging give it a graceful heirloom feel. Because it's handmade, expect slight variations in shape and color. Made in Italy.
The glories of Italy--its gardens and hillsides, its medieval architecture and ancient ruins--provide the inspiration for La Villa Collections' dazzling ceramic and glass creations. Italian artisans shape every dish and bowl, paint every motif, and apply each 24k gold border by hand. As a result, each is a unique work of art, as individualistic and distinctive as the rest of your home.

Two teams are carrying out independent inspections
The final report of the expert committee that studied the stability of Tamil Nadu Slum Clearance Board (TNSCB) tenements in Ukkadam, will be ready soon.
According to sources in the Coimbatore Corporation and the TNSCB, the committee will forward the report to the State Government, which will consider it along with the report to be submitted by another committee, comprising experts from the Public Works Department.
After State Minister for Housing and Urban Development R. Vaithilingam inspected the damaged Block 4 and other structures on September 6, 2011, he constituted the two committees to carry out independent inspection and submit reports. The Block had sunk 15 cm and developed cracks.
The first team comprises Professors K. Ilamparuthi , Senthil, Santhakumar and L.S. Jayagopal, who have expertise in soil mechanism, structural design and stability, retro-fitting among other things.
The sources say the team conducted soil test for 15 days, quality control test for 10 days, and foundation test for five days. The PWD team also carried out similar tests.
After the tests in October – November, the first team submitted its pre-final report to the Government. This was in the third week of December, say the sources.
Once both the committees submit their reports and Government recommends action, the TNSCB will act accordingly. The sources also say that if the TNSCB were to pull down Block 4, as per Government recommendation, it will recover the construction cost from the builder, as it did in the case of Ammankulam.
The Board constructed Block 4 at Rs. 4.26 crore. In all, it constructed 21 such blocks, consisting 2,904 flats, at nearly Rs. 70 crore for the Coimbatore Corporation under the Basic Services for Urban Poor component of the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Mission scheme.
The sources say that notwithstanding the setback, the Board will be able to handover the tenements by December 2012.
Once the tenements are ready for occupation, the Corporation will first relocate those living along canals and channels that drain water into tanks.
Thereafter, it will look at shifting those alongside the tanks.

Encinitas candidates address need for change
At the four forums, Brown has said city officials could improve relations with residents by communicating better. As the owner of a large company, Brown says talking and listening to people is part of his daily fare.
As a council member, "I want to be in a position to talk to people and I want the people to be able to talk to me," he said.
Brown says his experience as builder of roads and schools would be an asset to a city that faces ever-increasing costs for capital projects.
Brown is a former member of the state Contractors License Board and is chairman of the San Diego Family Center for Justice, which provides services for abused women and children.
Brown lives with his wife, Sandra. They have two grown sons.
Dan Dalager
Emphasizing his accessibility, incumbent Dalager, 56, says that throughout his first term, residents have been able to resolve issues just by visiting him at his outdoor equipment store.
He likens the store to Floyd's Barber Shop, the hub of town chit-chat on the 1960s TV series, "The Andy Griffith Show."
Encinitas can be proud of its AAA bond rating, which Dalager says only three other cities in California have.
"We're practically like no other city in this county," he said.
That means the city can borrow money inexpensively to complete projects such as a new library and fire stations, he says.
He compared the city's recent purchase of $20 million in revenue bonds to taking out a mortgage for a home that would otherwise be out of reach.
"I absolutely love the bond," Dalager said at last week's debate. "I love it as much as the day my wife and I signed our life away to pay $120,000 for an acre less than a mile from the beach."
An Encinitas native who enjoys nostalgia, Dalager made the controversial decision to return the city-sponsored Encinitas Holiday Parade to its original title, the Encinitas Christmas Parade, in 2005 during his one-year turn as the appointed mayor.
Dalager and his wife, Shirley, have two grown sons.
Doug Long
During this season's debates, Long found no fault with the way the city conducts its business.
Long, 56, is a plumber and is chairman of the city's Parks and Recreation Commission.
To prepare for office, Long says he would do nothing differently than he has over the last six years, during which he has attended all but four City Council meetings.
"I get the opportunity to talk to people every day and find out what their concerns are," he said. "I've been studying this stuff for six years. I'm ready to go."
Long has said one reason he's running for council is his concern that other challengers could knock the council off its present course.
Long is a member of Downtown Encinitas MainStreet Association's board of directors.
One year ago, he served on a steering committee that worked to promote the passage of Proposition A, which would have rezoned agricultural property for housing.

Comments about Multicolor Nunchucks:
I ordered this product online. When it arrived, only one side lit up. The other did not. Once I managed to get the battery compartment open, I discovered the battery was corroded and needed to be replaced with an uncommon battery type. They seem to have different settings where it changes color or stays a solid color. I can't figure out how to get them to actually do this. Also, seems as though the string holding them together will break if you swing them around. So this is now put away until Halloween in fear it will be unusable by then. Not very satisfied with product

Finding new ways to censor journalists in Turkey
The flood was foretold, and seemed inevitable. Even I, with my limited resources as a journalist and media monitor, raised the alarm years ago.
By Yavuz Baydar
The flood was foretold, and seemed inevitable. Even I, with my limited resources as a journalist and media monitor, raised the alarm years ago.
The state-run Anadolu news agency reported on July 10, 2014, that Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan asked the Ankara Public Prosecutor's Office to launch a criminal investigation against Bülent Keneş, editor-in-chief of the English-language daily newspaper Today's Zaman, on charges of "insulting a public official."
By Nina Ognianova/CPJ Europe and Central Asia Program Coordinator
For the past several months, CPJ staff has been researching pervasive press freedom problems in Turkey, including the criminal prosecution of journalists, the use of governmental pressure to engender self-censorship, and the presence of a repressive legal structure. This month, CPJ will release an in-depth report on Turkey's press freedom crisis. In advance of our report, we are publishing this illuminating interview with Yavuz Baydar, ombudsman for the Turkish newspaper Sabah and columnist for Today's Zaman. The interview was conducted via email.
Blog | Belgium, France, Turkey
By Jean-Paul Marthoz/CPJ Senior Advisor
On January 19, 2007, Hrant Dink, the founder and editor-in-chief of the Armenian-Turkish weekly Agos, was gunned down in front of his office building in Istanbul. The murder sent shockwaves through the Turkish and international human rights and press freedom communities. It also triggered a mobilization of thousands of Turkish intellectuals, activists, and citizens that marched through the streets of Istanbul under banners claiming "We are all Hrant Dink."
New York, February 3, 2011--Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak unleashed an unprecedented and systematic attack on international media today as his supporters assaulted reporters in the streets while security forces began obstructing and detaining journalists covering the unrest that threatens to topple his government.
Do you believe the free flow of information must be protected? Sign the #RightToReport petition and demand that President Obama immediately:
1. Issue a presidential policy directive prohibiting the hacking and surveillance of journalists and media organizations.
2. Limit aggressive prosecutions that ensnare journalists and intimidate whistleblowers.
3. Prevent the harassment of journalists at the U.S. border.
Or click here to see the full petition, and join leading journalists like Christiane Amanpour, The Guardian's Alan Rusbridger, Editor of the AP Kathleen Carroll, and Arianna Huffington in signing on.

Hoarding Clean Up Under Way after Animal Hoarding Situation Uncovered in Waynesboro, PA
According to a recent report by The Record Herald, nineteen Rottweilers were rescued by the Antietam Humane Society from a home in PA. After "deplorable" conditions were discovered in the home, SI Restoration urges area resident to become educated on the dangers of animal hoarding.
Mount Laurel, New Jersey (PRWEB) March 21, 2013
For a hoarder, admitting that there is a health risk lurking inside their home is extremely difficult. Hoarders tend to collect an overabundance of items that usually include clothing, knick knacks, toys, canned food, and even empty containers and boxes. However, when a hoarding clean up crew uncovers animals being hoarded amongst these items as well, the issue becomes fundamentally more dangerous.
Hoarding cleanup services like SI Restoration — currently available in 25 states – are on a mission to educate residents of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and their neighboring states, about the dangers of hoarding and animal hoarding. Providing outlets of information via the web, by telephone, and in person, SI Restoration has been successfully answering many of the hoarding clean up faq´s (frequently asked questions) of both hoarders and their affected families alike.
Hoarding Awareness comes on the heels of several animal hoarding cases reported recently in the tri-state area. Most recently, the Antietam Humane Society was called on to rescue nineteen Rottweilers from a home in Waynesboro, Pennsylvania ranging in age from one to twelve years old. Nancy Mace of The Record Herald described the conditions these animals and their owners had been living in as "deplorable" in her report. Though most of the dogs seemed friendly, all are said to have suffered terrible deficiencies in their social development. Luckily, only one out of the nineteen animals suffered from medical conditions that demanded immediate treatment.
Hoarding cleanup is vital to the health and overall quality of the lives of animals and owners alike. Dangers like respiratory illness, sleep deprivation, infection, and depression have all been linked to cases of extreme hoarding. Dependable service providers like SI Restoration ease hoarders´ anxieties about bringing attention to sensitive hoarding situations by providing full anonymity to each cleanup project. Providing clients with a sense of privacy allows a fresh start for people – and animals – finding themselves in dangerous living conditions.
For the nineteen Rottweilers rescued by the AHS, the future is bright. Executive Director of the Antietam Humane Society says the animals are currently under medical evaluation and are undergoing testing to determine their temperament. Evaluations could last anywhere from one week to several months. However, these Rottweilers will have the chance at normal, healthy futures, becoming available for adoption once testing is complete.
As for the area residents of Waynesboro who called the AHS into action, SI Restoration continues to provide educational opportunities and services to those in need of hoarding cleanup. Hoarding cleanup services, along with additional information on animal and object hoarding, can be obtained by contacting a hoarding specialist directly.

Love them both
By Lynne
from Saanichton, BC
I bought both the black & they are calling it brown but it really more like a beige. I love both of them, very comfortable, and casual, with just a touch of bling. My only complaint is that I find the clasp a little difficult to undo. Other than that another great piece from JR.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pretty but not as expected!
By poshy
from Ontario
Saw this bracelet on the model in beige and fell in love with it, bought the black one and just received it. Somewhat disappointed as it just does not have that look that the beige one did. I find it somewhat cheap looking with the faux leather and its hard to see any sparkle on the buckle. I find that its not enough bang for the price as it was not cheap and also I do not care for the fit at all. This one may end up going back. If faux leather is what you like then you will love this bracelet and maybe its nicer looking in the beige (beige did not fit into my wardrobe),

A portable, interactive electronic training device for prompting a trainee on the proper sequence of steps for performing CPR, using a defibrillator and performing CPR in conjunction with the use of a defibrillator. The device simulates the obtaining of direct information about a patient's condition, such as ECG data collected directly from the patient. The device receives information pertinent to the treatment of the patient indirectly through an operator of the device. The device prompts a trainee on the medically appropriate action such as a defibrillation shock in response to the indirect and direct information. Indirect information is obtained through information processing means that includes means for prompting the operator of the device and means for receiving the operator's responses thereto. Prompts may include both questions and instructions, and in one embodiment the information processing means obtains the assent of the operator before causing the defibrillation shock. Indirect information may include information as to whether the patient is conscious, whether the patient is an adult, baby or child, and as to whether or not cardiopulmonary resuscitation has been performed. The device also prompts the user on proper placement of training electrode pads upon a simulated victim's chest by prompting feedback to the trainee if the pads are not placed on the conductive targets located upon the simulated victim's chest.

This application is a divisional application of pending application Ser. No. 09/494,590 filed on Jan. 31, 2000 which is currently pending and which claims priority to provisional patent application No. 60/117,727 filed on Jan. 29, 1999.
The present invention pertains generally to a training device used to assist a student operator in rescue procedures, and more particularly a hand-on training device used to assist a student in learning cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), training instructions in the use of a defibrillator and rescue procedures such as rescue breathing and choking procedures.
It has been estimated that over 350,000 deaths occur each year in the United States due to cardiac arrhythmia. Many of these deaths could be prevented by rescue procedures such as CPR and defibrillation by properly trained persons in rescue procedures. Thus, there is a continuing need to provide training to the public and to medical personnel in the proper treatment of a patient undergoing cardiac arrest or in need of rescue procedures. In order to train a student properly in rescue techniques, hands-on training aids such as manikins are often utilized. The disadvantage to prior art training aids is that separate devices are often needed to provide the full range of training. For example, CPR manikins and CPR prompting devices are used in training students CPR, while real defibrillator devices are used as defibrillator training aids. These devices can be quite costly. Further, the use of real defibrillator devices in a training environment creates a possible danger of discharging an unintended potent electric shock. Further, these type of devices in general only assist in the instruction of the use of the defibrillator, and do not provide instruction in the use of CPR or other rescue techniques such as rescue breathing. Still further yet, these training devices generally assume that the patient is of a sufficient age to receive shock treatment. In addition, prior art defibrillator and CPR training devices generally do not instruct the trainee to check for a pulse after a victim has received a shock treatment nor after a series of CPR compressions have been given. Finally, these type of training devices do not teach the proper placement of the paddles upon the patient.
These and other features and advantages of the invention will become apparent in the detailed description and claims to follow, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
Mechanical System
Referring initially to
The front panel 14 further comprises an AED keypad 50 comprising an AED POWER switch 52, an ANALYZE switch 54, and a SHOCK switch 56. Each AED switch 52–56 has its own LED indicating light 58–62 to indicated that the switch has been activated when lit. In addition, the front panel of the device 10 further comprises a Select Prompting Mode switch 70 for allowing the trainee to select only defibrillation mode denoted as "AED" as mode 72 the CPR mode 74, or both CPR and AED prompts denoted as "Both" 76.
As shown in
As shown in
The opposite ends of the electrode cables 114 all connected to disposable electrode pads 120 via an electrode clip 140. The disposable electrode pads 120 are simulated defibrillator pads and are to be inserted into the electrode clip 140 and then mounted by the trainee upon a simulated victim's chest as explained in more detail, below. The electrode clip 140 as best shown in
Each electrode-training pad 120 is disposable and comprises an upper surface layer 123, a lower adhesive layer 124, and a conductive layer 126. The upper surface layer 123 of the training pad comprises a flexible plastic or foam material. The upper surface layer 123 of each training pad 120 is color coded with a graphic design 128 on the front surface layer 123 of the pads which illustrates the proper placement upon a victim's chest. The design further includes the number 1 or 2 that indicates the proper sequence of placement of the pads 120 upon the simulated victim's chest. The lower adhesive layer 124 of the electrode pads 120 has a removable protective liner 130 which is peeled away by the trainee prior to installation upon the simulated victim. The outer conductive layer 126 is adhered to the lower adhesive layer 124, and is formed of a thin plastic having a metallic or conductive substrate bonded thereto. The outer conductive layer 126 of each electrode training pad 120 acts as a built in sensor means which generates an output signal to the device 10 when the training pad is properly connected to the electrode clip 140 and placed in contact with a conductive target means 170. The conductive target means 170 is preferably an adhesive disc having an outer conductive layer such as metal. The conductive target means 170 are mounted upon a simulated victim's chest in the upper right chest and lower left rib position for defibrillation.
The sensor means 126 of the electrode training pad 120 as shown in
Thus in order for the trainee to secure the removable electrode pads 120 to the clips 140, the holes 122 of the electrode training pad 120 are inserted through the slot 148 of the clip 140 such that the holes 122 and 169 are aligned. Then the clip securing means 160 is rotated into position such that the prongs 168 are inserted into the aligned holes 122 and 169, such that the first and second conducting strip 136,138 of the first mating member of the clip 140 contact with the conductive layer 126 of the electrode pads 120. After notched receiving end of the electrode pad 120 is inserted into the slot 148, the securing means 160 of the clip 140 is snapped into place such that the prongs 168 are inserted through holes 169 and 122 of the members and the electrode pad, respectively. When the trainee properly mounts each of the electrode pads within its clip 160 and properly places each electrode training pad 120 over its respective target means 170 on the simulated victim's chest, the target means 170 shorts or completes the circuit formed by the first and second conductive paths 132,134. When the circuit is closed, a small current is generated by the device 10 through the first conducting strip 136 and the first conductive path 132, through the target means 170 and then back to the device through the second conductive path 134 and the strip 138, thus indicating that the electrode training pad 120 has been properly placed upon the target 170. Each electrode training pad 120 must be properly placed over its conductive target 170, else the trainee will be continually prompted to "PLACE PADS ON VICTIMS BARE CHEST" until the operation is performed correctly for each pad 120. The trainee will continually be voice prompted until the sequence of operations has been correctly performed.
In an alternative embodiment of the invention, a reed switch is utilized as the sensing means in each disposable electrode pads. A reed switch may be attached to the outer surface layer of each electrode pad or mounted within the pad. The reed switch is used to sense when the pads are in close proximity to a target means having a magnet or magnetized surface. The target means are mounted in the proper area of a victim's chest for defibrillation. Alternatively, a magnet may be mounted upon the electrode pads and the reed switched mounted on the simulated victim's chest. When the reed switch is in close proximity to the target means, the reed switch generates an electric signal which is communicated to the device 10, and the trainee will no longer be prompted to "PLACE PADS ON VICTIM'S BARE CHEST".
Electrical System
There is shown in
Operation of the Device
In order to begin operation of the AED-CPR training device 10, the trainee first selects the desired training mode using the Prompting Mode switch 70. The AED-CPR training device 10 has three different training modes denoted as: "AED", "BOTH", and "CPR". If the AED mode is selected, the training device 10 will only provide training prompts that simulate the operation of an actual defibrillator device. The device 10 will first simulate the collection of patient ECG data, then simulate the analyzing of the ECG data by the training device and then the delivery of a simulated electrical pulse to a simulated patient in response to actuation by the trainee. No actual electrical pulse is delivered. If the CPR mode is selected by the trainee, the training device 10 will provide detailed training prompts for the proper sequence of CPR rescue steps. If the "BOTH" mode is selected, the device 10 will provide the trainee with CPR and AED prompts. The operation of these three modes is described in more detail, below.
AED Mode
If the trainee selects the AED mode by setting the Prompting Mode switch 70 to the "AED" position, the CPR panel 40 is deactivated and the AED panel 50 is activated. The AED mode has three programmable modes for the ANALYZE key. The ANALYZE key may be programmed using the Shock Sequence keypad 90 to toggle key 111 to simulate a manual defibrillator, a semi-automatic defibrillator or an automatic defibrillator. The programming steps are described in more detail, below.
As illustrated in
After the training electrode pads 120 and the plug 112 of the electrode cable have been properly installed by the trainee, the trainee is prompted to press the "ANALYZE" switch 54 and to "STAND CLEAR" of the victim. The analyze LED 60 will flash on and off while the device simulates the Analyze function of a real defibrillator. The device 10 will have been previously programmed by an instructor or the trainee as described in more detail, below. The device will indicate to the user via voice prompting whether a shock is advised. If a shock is advised, the Analyze LED 60 will turn off and the shock LED light 62 will flash on and off, while the trainee is voice prompted "SHOCK ADVISED". If a shock sequence is advised, the trainee will be prompted to "STAND CLEAR" of the victim while a simulated charging tone is emitted from the speaker. The trainee is prompted to "SHOUT ALL CLEAR" and to check if all clear and then press the "SHOCK" key 56. When the "SHOCK" key 56 is pressed, the trainee will hear a simulated shock ready tone of approximately 15 seconds in duration and then a simulated shock delivered tone. Then the Shock LED light 62 will be deactivated. The trainee will be prompted to press the ANALYZE key 54 to repeat the process. If no shock is advised, the Analyze LED 60 is turned off and the trainee is prompted to check the simulated victim's breathing and pulse. If no pulse is detected, the trainee is prompted to do CPR for a 1 minute interval. If no pulse is detected by the simulated defibrillator after the trainee has performed CPR for a set interval of time, the trainee is prompted to check the victim's pulse, and if no pulse is found, to press the Analyze key 54.
The shock sequence as described above is programmable by the trainee or instructor using the shock sequence keypad 90 located on the rear panel. Thus the user may program the sequence of shock/no shock heart rhythms. Up to seven shock/no-shock sequences may be programmed. In order to program the device, the set key 92 is toggled on. Adjacent the set key 92 is seven toggle keys 93–99 labeled "1" through "7+", with each numbered key representing the numerical cycle of analyzed heart rhythms. Thus key "1" 93 represents the first cycle of simulated analyzed heart rhythms, key "2" 94 represents the second cycle of simulated analyzed heart rhythms, etc. Thus up to seven cycles may be programmed. In addition, each numerical key has its own LED indicator light 101 located immediately thereabove. The indicator light indicates (i.e., when lit) whether a shockable rhythm has been programmed. When the set key 92 is toggled on, the LED indicator lights 101 will light up if a shockable rhythm is desired for its respective numerical cycle. If the LED indicator light 101 is not lit, then the device will not recommend a shockable rhythm for that particular cycle. For example, if the American Heart Association recommended teaching shock sequence is: shock:shock:shock:no shock:shock:shock, then keys 1–3 and keys 5–7 will be toggled on such that their respective LED indicator lights 101 are lit. When finished programming, the set key 92 is toggled off.
The Shock Sequence Panel 90 also provides for turning on a "REFIBRILLATE" key 102. To program the device for the REFIBRILLATE function, the set key 92 is toggled on and then the REFIBRILLATE key 102 is toggled on such that the LED indicator light 103 labeled "ON" lights up. The set key 92 is then toggled off. In order to use this feature, a non shockable rhythm must have been programmed. After the trainee receives the first "NO SHOCK ADVISED" prompt, the trainee will be instructed to "CHECK BREATHING AND PULSE", and "IF NO PULSE PERFORM CPR". The CPR interval will be interrupted to instruct the trainee that the victim has went into a shockable rhythm. The trainee will be prompted to press the ANALYZE key. Thus when the REFIBRILLATE key is activated, a simulation of a non-shockable rhythm which converts into a shockable rhythm is demonstrated.
The Shock Sequence panel 90 also provides for the simulation of a manual, semi-automatic or automatic defibrillator by programming the Analyze key 105. The simulation of a semi-automatic defibrillator is the same as the manual defibrillator as described above, except the trainee is not prompted to press the Analyze key after it has been pressed once by the trainee. The simulation of an automatic defibrillator is the same as the above description, except the trainee is not prompted to press the ANALYZE key at anytime, as the device automatically goes into the simulated Analyze mode.
The Shock Sequence panel 90 also provides for the altering of the CPR prompting based upon the number of rescuers present for the CPR mode. After the set key 92 is toggled on, the "ADULT/CPR/TIME" key 106 may be set to either "1 Rescuer" 107 or "2 Rescuer" 108 mode. The timing of the CPR interval and the breathing rate will be affected. For 1 Rescuer attending a victim, the trainee will be prompted to do cycles of 5 chest compressions and 1 breath for 1 minute, while 2 Rescuers will be prompted to do cycles of 15 compressions and 2 breaths for 1 minute intervals. In addition, the Shock Sequence panel 90 also allows the trainee to program short or long prompting scripts for the rescue instructions for the AED, CPR or AED/CPR modes of operation by selecting the "PROMPTING FORMAT" key 109 and setting it to "short" or "long" formats. The "short" prompting format contains only the essential prompting queues, while "long" format gives trainee more detailed instructions. In addition, the Shock Sequence Panel 90 provides for programming the CPR interval, i.e., the time CPR is prompted, to 30, 60 or 90 second intervals.
CPR Mode
When the trainee manually sets the SELECT PROMPTING MODE switch 70 to CPR mode 74, the trainee will receive instructive prompts for performing CPR in conjunction with other rescue operations such as the HEIMLICH maneuver, abdominal thrusts and rescue breathing. In order to activate the device in this mode, the trainee must assess the victim's age and select the appropriate ADULT, BABY or CHILD key. As shown in
CPR Plus AED (Both) Mode
When the trainee manually sets the SELECT PROMPTING MODE switch to BOTH, the trainee will receive instructive prompts for performing CPR in conjunction with use of a defibrillator. The user may initiate this mode by pressing the ADULT key after assessing the victim's age. If the BABY or CHILD key is pressed, the trainee will be prompted that he or she has pressed a wrong key, because infants or children are not recommended to receive defibrillation. After the ADULT key is selected, the trainee will be prompted as described above under the CPR mode. However, if no pulse is found, the trainee is instructed to press the AED power key 52 instead of the CPR key 4. The AED sequence of prompting is as described above under the AED ONLY section.
While the preferred embodiments of the invention have been illustrated and described, it should be understood that variations will become apparent to those skilled in the art. Accordingly, the invention is not to be limited to the specific embodiments illustrated and described herein, but rather the true scope and spirit of the invention are to be determined by reference to the appended claims.

Camp Pendleton Marines beat back insurgents
As casualties taper, commanders send in tanks in Sangin river valley in Afghanistan
But the fight in Sangin, where the British lost about a third of their war dead before pulling out in September, remains fierce, Amos added. He and the sergeant major of the Marine Corps plan to spend Christmas in Sangin, to inform the public about "the raw courage and sacrifice of those men."
"We are now spreading out in the valley to places, quite honestly, coalition forces have never been. That is where the Taliban are squeezing out to," Amos said.
Sangin will eventually go the way of Marjah and Fallujah, Iraq – two places Marines eventually subdued that were characterized as intractable, he said. "The enemy in Helmand province now has been pushed out of just about every place there."
The Marines will get a boost in firepower when the first tanks are deployed by American forces in the nine-year war. Mills said his tank crews training now in Helmand will head to Sangin later this month. Eventually the tanks will also help secure provincial roads and screen the open deserts along the border with Pakistan.
Mills said his request for the tanks is not an escalation of tactics, when compared to the more lethal arsenal the U.S. already deploys in Afghanistan, including 2,000-pound bombs. But they will give the Marines a number of advantages.
"The enemy, his favorite tactic is to use a couple of his fighters as bait to lure you into IED belts. The gun on the main battle tank gives you good offset distance. You don't need to approach; you can hit him from a long distance away," Mills said.
The United States is deploying tanks long after the Canadians and Danes demonstrated their utility in Afghanistan, as mobile assault guns paired with infantry units, said David E. Johnson, a senior RAND Corp. researcher and retired Army colonel.
The tracked tanks are nimble and their 120 mm gun and superior optics can put a round through a window more than a mile away with less risk of "collateral damage" than other weapons, Johnson said.
Their heavy armor is also impervious to rocket-propelled grenades and all but the largest of improvised bombs. For the average insurgent, taking on a tank is "a suicide mission," he said.
In addition to the tanks, Mills said he is adding a company of Marines to Sangin and he is shifting some equipment used against improvised bombs from calmer areas of the province, where it is no longer needed.
The 3/5 Marines are already making headway against insurgents in Sangin, Mills added. The battalion is finding three times as many improvised bombs as its Marines accidentally set off, it has pushed through old mine fields and it "has killed a whole bunch of enemy fighters. They have whittled down the enemy presence up there significantly," Mills said.
"They are becoming savvy fighters in that kind of a jungle almost up there."
Amid the progress by the Marines, U.S. commanders in Afghanistan are rebalancing their counterinsurgency strategy, said vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Marine Corps Gen. James E. Cartwright. They are shifting toward more counterterrorism operations to hunt insurgent leaders and cut their supply lines across the border into Pakistan, he said.

Peyton, Colts hold 31-7 lead over Giants
INDIANAPOLIS The Indianapolis Colts are still getting the better of Peyton Manning's younger brother.
After Eli Manning finally got the Giants on the scoreboard with a 54-yard TD pass to Mario Manningham, the Colts recovered Eli's second fumble in the end zone, giving Indy a 31-7 lead over New York after three quarters Sunday night.
It was a miserable night for Eli, who was 8 of 16 for 101 yards with one interception. He also was sacked twice and lost two fumbles. The second fumble came when Pro Bowl defensive end Dwight Freeney knocked the ball loose near the Giants' goal line. It then rolled into the end zone where Fili Moala recovered it.
Meanwhile, the older brother was especially efficient in Manning Bowl II.
He threw two first-half TD passes, including a 50-yarder to Dallas Clark, and led the Colts on four scoring drives in the first two quarters as he got plenty of time to work. It was a major improvement over the season opener when Manning hit the ground 13 times.
Peyton was aided in large part by a suddenly strong ground game. Joseph Addai and Donald Brown ran 28 times for 144 yards through three quarters. Addai's 88 yards rushing were his most in any game since he had 105 against Houston on Nov. 16, 2008.
But the Giants' offensive ineptitude was the far bigger problem for New York.
The Giants had only five first downs in the first half, when Eli went 3 of 8 for 17 yards, and one of those came off a pass-interference penalty.
Things got so bad that at one point during the third quarter a frustrated Brandon Jacobs started to throw his helmet down when it slipped and unintentionally went into the stands. Security personnel had to retrieve the helmet, and Jacobs appeared to be explaining to coach Tom Coughlin what happened.
And they still had to contend with Peyton on the field.
After Peyton hooked up with Clark for their 43rd career TD connection - tying the second most in league history among quarterback and tight ends - Eli tried to outdo his older brother.
Bad choice.
Eli's 57-yard throw was deflected by safety Antoine Bethea, went through the hands of Steve Smith and was intercepted by Jerraud Powers at the Indy 23. Peyton then took the Colts 42 yards in eight plays to set up Adam Vinatieri for a 38-yard field goal with 5 minutes left in the half.
Peyton was just warming up. After Robert Mathis stripped the ball on a sack, and Eric Foster recovered, Peyton found Austin Collie for a 3-yard TD pass with 9 seconds left in the half.
Peyton was 17 of 23 for 199 yards with two TDs through three quarters, and Eli certainly didn't expect the game to be this lopsided.
"It's my seventh year in this offense now so, it's been a great week," he told NBC before kickoff. "It's been less stressful than the first time when you had five months of press dealing before this game instead of one week. It's been a little bit more enjoyable for Peyton and I."

It is far too easy to become desensitised to the pain and suffering caused by men like Chedwyn Evans, as their victims are not the ones we see on the football pitch every week. If a positive attitude towards gender equality is ever to be achieved, it is imperative that bodies like the FA impose tougher penalties on those who commit such serious offences.
I find Gwyneth Paltrow's goop website a bit weird or Donny Osmond's wig on last weeks Strictly Come Dancing, but feminism itself? If indeed there is something unnatural or unearthly about this so-called 'crossroads' we hashtag-feminists are tweeting at, is it right to finger-blame an entire movement? I'm not sure that it is, really.
Intolerance breeds intolerance and laws that allow bigotry and racism as though they were a part and parcel of society are exactly the thing that encourages such attitudes. When we look at injustices far and wide it's so easy to express distaste but we must look closer to home and deal with the injustices and attitudes that are being imposed.
It is unfair to blame any stigma around the feminist movement solely on the media representation of an archetypal feminist. I don't believe a true feminist hates men - they simply aspire to live life on a level playing field. Women should have equal pay. Men should have their parental value equally compensated. Equality gaps exist for both sexes ergo both sexes have a motivation to achieve parity.
The sex positions are drawn as cartoons. It's worth pointing out that the pictures which feature alongside many of Cosmo's sex tips for straight couples are of real-life people. The fact they've used cartoons to illustrate these "mind-blowing" lesbian sex positions is cringe-worthy, creepy and actually quite offensive.
I tend to get one of two responses when I mention wanting bigger muscles: a) 'I don't like girls with muscles' or b) 'but you'll look like a man'. The first comment suggests that my body exists solely for the viewing pleasure of that person, the second: that women are supposed to conform to certain socially constructed ideals...

I bought it to fill my 75g reef aquarium and was worried I would need more. One I actually opened the box I was surprised. Filled my tank and ended up having to put some in my sump. Great rock would recommend. Excellent combination By Chad on 3/19/2012 Chad would recommend this product to a friend As stated, this rock looks great if you have existing live/dry rock in your aquarium. I was surprised at the amount of rock that I pulled out of the packaging. BRS included various shapes and features with each rock, which really adds character to the aquascape. Great price for a great product!! Very nice for a clean start By PT on 3/10/2012 PT would recommend this product to a friend A nice variety of rocks from branchy shapes to a few rounded ones. I also ordered some shelf rock and between this and 20lbs of that I was able to get some nice aquascaping going in a 24" cube. Try to use some starter cultures or live sand for cycling if starting new as this will take longer to cycle otherwise. Unbeatable Value By Steve on 3/7/2012 Steve would recommend this product to a friend So in my opinion, this is probably the best value product BRS offers. My boxes were loaded with various sizes and shapes of rock - all very porous! The rock does still have organic matter on it, so an appropriate cycle time is warranted. That said, after just a few weeks wet, the rock is picking up color and life amazingly! I would recommend the product to anyone. Excellent quality By jason on 2/27/2012 jason would recommend this product to a friend This rock was packed so well that I only had less then a half pound of rubble. Also lots of different sizes made for a fun aquascape Great By Christian on 2/26/2012 Christian would recommend this product to a friend Got all different shapes and sizes. Even a little more than 50lb. I really like the rock!! Impressed By Artem on 2/21/2012 Artem would recommend this product to a friend Amazing rock at unbeatable price! Must have! Excellent Value By Dominic on 2/16/2012 Dominic would recommend this product to a friend Good variety of sizes. Good quality rocks. Would definitely buy again! Great value By Matthew on 2/16/2012 Matthew would recommend this product to a friend A nice mix of sizes, and good quality pieces if you're worried about buying "sight unseen" Great product By michael on 2/14/2012 michael would recommend this product to a friend I love my Fiji dry rock. Looks great in the tank! Really had a great time creating my aquascape and the Fiji rock was easy to assemble in a natural looking formation. Great product at a great value By Kevin on 2/12/2012 Kevin would recommend this product to a friend Perfect for any new reef system or fish with live rock system. Pre cured live rock is too expensive and hard to find in 100 lb plus quantities. So the alternative is cure yourself, and still pay a premium and chance getting unwanted critters or small useless pieces. The alternative is do as I did and buy reef saver rock. Comes with some nice large pieces an very pourous. Then just seed with cured live rock you hand pick yourself. Just be ready to wait six months for coralline to spread. Great rock for great price! By Jason on 1/24/2012 Jason would recommend this product to a friend Ordered a box of this and couldn't be more pleased. The rock was nice an porous, and had all different shapes and sizes. It made for some great aquascaping. Write Your Own Review You're reviewing: BRS Bulk Fiji Dry Live Rock - 50LB Box *How do you rate this product? *Would you recommend this product to a friend?

Congratulations on your new bike. I checked out the specs on BD. It looks like a pretty good value. I'm interested to know how it rides.

Sweat, dust, wind, cold, pollen, bugs, heavy exertion, dehydration, smoking weed ... take your pick.
In addition to that posted above, I have noticed that by coating the tube and inside tire with baby powder, the tube is easier to situate, and it makes future tire removal easier as well.
Also, feel around the inside of the tire for bits of wire, or other sharp objects. Neglecting to remove those will result in multiple punctures in the same location. I use my bare fingers to do...
Good to know. I just tightened my integrated headset last night in this manner. I should probably double-check it.
