Home > Press > Aculon Receives Patent for Application of Metallic Nanoparticles in Electric Conductive Inks
Aculon, Inc., a leading nanotechnology enabled performance coatings company, today announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has allowed a patent covering its method for utilizing metallic nanoparticles in electric conductive inks.
United States Patent Application No. 61/337,960 discloses an electroconductive ink with metallic nanoparticles. The ink contains an organophosphorus acid that increases adhesion between the deposited metallic layer and the substrate to which the metallic layer is applied. The invention also provides for a process for applying the compositions to substrates such as would be used in making electronic devices.
"One of the key focuses for our technology is to improve adhesion and its use in electroconductive inks is a very interesting application of our technology. We believe that this technology fills a significant gap where alternative electroconductive inks have fallen short in conductivity and adhesion," comments Edward Hughes, CEO of Aculon.
About Aculon, Inc.
Founded in 2004, Aculon specializes in inventing and commercializing unique molecular-scale surface and interfacial coatings leveraging nanotechnology discoveries made at Princeton University. The Company's breakthrough technology outperforms all known alternatives in characteristics such as repellency, particle treatments, and adhesion.
Key benefits of Aculon technology include:
- Repellency ˆ Treat numerous surfaces to repel water, oil, solvents, and most all liquids.
- Particle Treatment ˆ Functionalize nanoparticles to improve many characteristics such as hydrophobicity, oleophobicity, and adhesion.
- Adhesion ˆ Boost the adhesion of challenging surfaces with Aculon's adhesion promoting treatments.
- Value - Molecular scale modification can transform surfaces and interfaces to provide unique performance, simpler processes, and favorable economics.
Aculon's team brings together seasoned executives from the specialty chemicals industry, professional investors experienced in early-stage technology companies, key scientists from Princeton University, and proven business development professionals.

Duffy's Subs adds a unique twist to the fare of Philadelphia by splashing its lengthy subs with creative ingredients and parading them out to patrons at counter seats, an outdoor patio, or via local delivery. Philly cheesesteaks—bundled with either sizzling slices of beef or chicken—silence appetites or overly talkative friends with a choice of cheese, grilled mushrooms, onions, and green peppers. Not content with merely tapping Philly's flavors, staffers also convert other classic dishes into sandwich form to produce specialties such as the ham-omelet and bacon-cheeseburger subs.

M. H. West & Co., Inc. helped sponsor again the Greater Richmond Chamber Annual Meeting on Wednesday, June 17 at the Greater Richmond Convention Center. The event featured outgoing Chair, Nancy Bagranoff, Dean of the Robins School of Business at the University of Richmond passing the Chairman's gavel to incoming Chair, Sam Young, President of Astyra Corporation.
Mr. Young introduced the new leadership team and spoke briefly about topics he intends to focus on as Chair. He commented that "the bar has been set high" by recent past Chairs and that he plans to set it even higher.
M. H. West & Co., Inc.'s Chair and CEO, Marilyn H. West continues to serve on the Board of Directors of the Greater Richmond Chamber.
A dad is someone who
wants to catch you before you fall
but instead picks you up,
brushes you off,
and lets you try again.
A dad is someone who
wants to keep you from making mistakes
but instead lets you find your own way,
even though his heart breaks in silence
when you get hurt.
A dad is someone who
holds you when you cry,
scolds you when you break the rules,
shines with pride when you succeed,
and has faith in you even when you fail…

Customer service and satisfaction are critical components of successful businesses. Learning to deliver exceptional service through effective telephone communication represents a pathway to build competitive advantage. There is no employee or executive of a business that is exempt from interacting with internal or external customers, although there are some who interact more frequently.
M. H. West & Co., Inc's research and project engagements underscore the importance of equipping employees with the resources to achieve a five star performance. Poor service could mean the loss of current, potential and future customers as well as employees and profits according to Lisa McQuerrey of Demand Media. Warren Buffet indicates that "if we are delighting customers, eliminating unnecessary costs and improving our products and services, we gain strength. But if we treat customers with indifference or tolerate bloat, our businesses will wither. On a daily basis, the effects of our actions are imperceptible; cumulatively, though, their consequences are enormous." Accordingly, every customer encounter by phone or through social media counts and what you say and don't say count as well.
When connecting by phone today and before saying goodbye, irrespective of the focus, complexity or tone, try saying "thank you for calling,"" I appreciate your call," "I learned a lot and thank you" or "Let's connect again soon." While these phrases may seem too fundamental to respond to your needs, they could make a huge difference in acquiring that new customer or holding on to the one that you have. If you are searching for more Customer Service guidance that aligns with challenges and opportunities that you have, Connect with Marilyn West today. (804.937.8904)

YIELD: Serves 6
Cover the bottom of a glass baking dish with the oil. Toss in the potatoes and garlic, making sure both are coated with the oil. Toss in the bay leaves and sprigs of herbs and season generously with salt and pepper.
Bake this dish in a 425°F oven until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 35 minutes. Open the oven and stir the potatoes twice during the cooking time. (When serving, be sure to show the guests how to squeeze the softened garlic and mash it into the potatoes.)
Choose firm and fresh-looking new (thin-skinned) potatoes. Any long thin-skinned potatoes can be called fingerlings. The yellow-fleshed ones are Yellow Finn and Yukon Gold, and there are many varieties of white and pink potatoes. I find the purple potatoes have the least flavor.

asinine comments like this leave the President looking like the only mature kid in town.
She hypnotized Cory with her free spirit, freer hair, and asinine name, coaxing him out of his shell and into love with her.
Funny how the ones deemed "geniuses" always act the most asinine in relationships.
c.1600, "obstinate, stupid," from Latin asininus "stupid," literally "like an ass," from asinus "ass," also "dolt, blockhead" (see ass (n.1)). The literal sense in English is recorded from 1620s.

Melt and Pour Basic Soap
By: Maria Williamson
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
This is a great tutorial by Maria Williamson. You can make your own DIY soap in the comfort of your home. Make any color soap to match the decor of your bathroom or kitchen.
- 4 oz Melt and Pour Clear soap
- 1 Drop Green liquid skin safe colorant (I used Green)
- ¾ tsp scent of choice (I used Eucalyptus)
- A spray bottle with rubbing alcohol in it
- A 4 oz soap mold or other flexible container like a yogurt tub
- Gather your supplies.
- Lay your mold on a flat protected surface.
- Cut your melt and pour soap into chunks and place them in a heat safe container.
- Place it in the microwave and cover with plastic wrap to retain moisture. Melt on 30 second burst until almost all the soap is melted. Stir to finish melting the left over chunks of soap. You don't want your soap to get too hot or it will burn and smell bad.
- Add the drop of color; you can add more if you want it darker but I was going for a translucent glass look on this one. Add your scent, stir well.
- Pour into the mold. You will see bubbles like in the picture below. Quickly spray with rubbing alcohol to break them up. See the difference?
- Let this set up for at least an hour. They release better if they are allowed to set up over night. Unlike Cold Process soaps these are ready for use immediately. There you go, a beautiful bar of soap for yourself or a wonderful gift!

Here at KNON we know you are sick of all the biased, misleading information out there on the internet when it comes to enlarging penis size. There is an entire market designed to do nothing other than sell bogus pills and flawed devices that at best might give very limited results, and at worst could even be dangerous.
The surge in interest of penile enhancement has gone hand in hand with the internet, the problem is that anyone can write anything they want online, and many men, especially young men, often take it as gospel. Well, that's just not how it is.
I'm sure you'll find my site easy to follow and understand with no agenda or false claims whatsoever. We are not selling anything and we don't have any affiliations with particular brands or compaines. It's just the facts and nothing but the facts. There are some links to trusted sources of information including medical websites discussing extenders, pumps, and more. Hit the links up top and have a look around!

Self Contained Aerosol Dual Delivery System (SCADDS) is a pocket-sized inhaler for delivering inhaled therapeutic or recreational aerosols simultaneously and separately via oral and nasal routes. A handle assembly has a removable mouthpiece, cartridge penetration needles, puncture needle protective cover, a shuttle, a cam, valves and conduits from the penetration needles to the individual nozzles for oral and nasal inhalation. A cartridge contains separate reservoirs of solutions for oral and nasal inhalation. The reservoirs, impermeable bags with fluid and dissolved gas in solution, are punctured when the cartridge is attached to the handle assembly. Inhalation slides the shuttle toward the mouthpiece and opens the valves to release solution. The oral aerosol is inhaled into the lungs while the nasal aerosol provides a pleasant aroma. To enhance oral inhalation solution properties the oral inhalation reservoir may contain finely divided solids in a semi-permeable membranous bag, attached to a second reservoir, or be divided by a filter such that these solids do not occlude nozzles or penetration needles Degassed water may be used to enhance organic compound solubility in solutions. Alternative reservoir bag systems are twin spring driven or gas driven cylinders to provide proper pressure to aerosolize nasal and oral fluids. Hydraulic intensification, piezoelectric pumping devices, and electromechanically driven pressure pumps are alternative pressurization systems.
1. Self contained aerosol delivery apparatus comprising a handle with first and second ends, a nasal aerosol conduit coupled to the handle, a mouth piece coupled to the first end of the handle, a cartridge connector comprising aerosol coupled to the second end of the handle, air entry openings in the cartridge connector proximal the second end, a movable main shuttle disposed in the cartridge connector, a cartridge comprising first and second compartments, and a valve coupled to the cartridge, the valve being actuatable by the main shuttle when the cartridge is coupled to the handle, wherein the valve is a two way slide valve comprising open and closure seals, and a slide valve actuation shuttle coupled to the seals.

No. 7,013,888 which claims the benefit of priority of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/434,417, filed Dec. 19, 2002, both of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.
Inhaled medications need to be delivered more simply and their use made more pleasant than current alternatives permit. Anti-nausea medications need quicker onset of action, a non-oral route, and the option to delay use until symptoms occur rather than forcing the user to be sedated prematurely and possibly needlessly for prophylaxis against the myriad potential causes for nausea: seasickness, motion sickness, or chemotherapy induced nausea.
Similarly the recreational tobacco user who wishes to continue to enjoy tobacco products needs a means to do so without annoying non-tobacco users and ideally a means that provides greater pleasure.
For the asthmatic or other pulmonary disease patient who requires inhaled medication the special coordinated breathing to use a metered dose inhaler is a skill perfected by scarcely half of users. Current devices do not adequately allow for simultaneous delivery of potentially different aerosol solutions to the nose and lungs. Devices currently available do not always adequately diffuse and deposit aerosol solutions in the most peripheral branches of the bronchial tree. Therefore, diseases such as immune mediated diabetes mellitus, depression, Alzheimer's disease, erectile dysfunction, and other ailments cannot be treated properly with aerosolized solutions.
Needs exist for improved portable pocket-sized inhalers for delivering inhaled therapeutic or recreational aerosols simultaneously and separately via oral and nasal routes.
The present invention is a Self Contained Aerosol Dual Delivery System (SCADDS) that provides simultaneous delivery of potentially different aerosol solutions to the nose and the lungs. Key to the successful performance of this device is its novel methods for creating an aerosol suitable for maximum diffusion and deposition in the most peripheral branches of the bronchial tree. It offers the opportunity to broaden the ailments treated via inhaled medications beyond pulmonary diseases to include ailments ranging from immune mediated diabetes mellitus to depression, Alzheimer's disease, erectile dysfunction, and others depending on what solutions one creates to aerosolize. Degassed water can be used to enhance an organic compound's aqueous solubility and thus broaden the choice of compounds for aerosolization. A biologically tolerable gas such as nitrogen or carbon dioxide may be dissolved under pressure in the solutions created to improve aerosolization in some embodiments.
SCADDS, by mimicking aspects of smoking a cigarette, can deliver medication to the pulmonary disease patient in a manner they will enjoy and be familiar with in many cases from the activities that initially contributed to their illness. Dispensing effort can be reduced for patients with limited inspiratory capacity.
For the tobacco user wishing to have a smokeless tobacco product that provides equal or superior pleasure to traditional means, SCADDS can deliver an aerosol of tobacco extracts mixed in water, salt water, dilute alcohol, or in some combination of these and other solutions to create a solution that is buffered to physiologic pH. Degassed water or degassed salt-water can also be used to enhance organic compound solubilities. This tobacco extract solution bathes finely chopped tobacco leaf fragments and other tobacco plant fragments that are separated by a filter from the rest of the oral inhalation contents bag, encased in a semi permeable membrane bag that permits molecules to freely mix with the larger oral contents bag, or contained in a canister that is attached to the oral contents reservoir bag by a one-way valve or filter that permits continuous enrichment of the solution as soluble and volatile components from the tobacco continue to diffuse into the solution until soluble tobacco components are distributed uniformly throughout all regions or compartments. These approaches or a combination of them prevent clogging the nozzle or one-way valve by stray tobacco solids but facilitate free circulation of the fluid over the tobacco leaf fragments to increase flavor. To help subsequent aerosolization all the solutions may have gas dissolved in them either before mixing with tobacco fragments and extracts or in the case of degassed fluids gases such as nitrogen or carbon dioxide will be added back to the degassed fluids after mixing with the tobacco such that further organic compound extraction has occurred prior to dissolving in gas to aid aerosolization.
A pleasant aroma is supplied via an aerosol from the nasal contents bag simultaneously with inhaling from the oral contents bag to further enhance the user's sensory experience.
The absence of prolonged contact of tobacco products with the same patch of buccal mucosa as well as the absence of combustion products and carbon monoxide makes the SCADDS device preferable for the discerning tobacco consumer who desires maximum immediate satisfaction. In addition, the recreational tobacco consumer avoids all fire hazards associated with tobacco use since SCADDS uses no fire or heater elements that might ignite. Since there is no combustion the SCADDS device produces neither first-hand nor second-hand smoke. The tobacco consumer also avoids the inconvenience of searching for somewhere to spit the product out when they are done with it since they are inhaling it.
For the merchant stocking Cigines, the name for the handle and mouthpiece, and Cleantines, the name for the cartridges, for the tobacco consumer product, the design offers improved shelf life because the tobacco extract solution will improve in quality over time since it is enriched by the diffusion of components from the tobacco plant fragments in the tobacco portion of the Cleantine cartridge.
In its simplest embodiment the Self Contained Dual Aerosol Delivery System consists of a bag or bags of solutions pressurized with dissolved gas to aid in aerosolizing the solution. To keep the gas in the bags in solution and provide sufficient driving pressure they are encased in a cartridge designed to be pressurized to the same pressure as the reservoir bags. The reservoir bags are exceedingly compliant so that almost no energy is lost deforming the elastomeric or polymeric reservoir bags.
A more complex alternative to the reservoir bag system consist of twin spring driven or gas driven cylinders to provide proper pressure to nasal and oral fluids to aerosolize them upon ejection through their respective orifices. This is also necessary to keep dissolved gas in solution that is essential for producing the most efficient aerosolization. Other alternative equivalent schemes for providing the pressure necessary to produce twin aerosols for oral and nasal inhalation of the same or different substances include hydraulic intensification (akin to gas powered fuel injection) to improve aerosolization, piezoelectric pumping devices, electromechanically driven pressure pumps, or the aforementioned spring driven system.
For dose dependent medical or recreational embodiments of the Self Contained Aerosol Dual Delivery System sonic orifices are incorporated such that the flow through each orifice remains constant.
In its most fundamental embodiment a shuttle mechanism that is activated by the pressure across the shuttle created by placing the SCADDS mouthpiece in the mouth and inhaling releases an aerosol that sprays out the main contents valve seat and through the nozzle to form an aerosol of three micron sized particles. The inhaled atmospheric gas starts its journey through vents in the sides of the central tube near the cartridge attachment, triggers the shuttle motion when sufficient flow occurs, and entrains the aerosol spray that the shuttle motion and subsequent valve release permits. The inhaled air stream continues through the shuttle and mouthpiece to draw the aerosol through the oral cavity, trachea, and major bronchi and into the distal airways of the lung to diffuse to the most peripheral alveoli rapidly. The small particle size favors only minimal deposition of the aerosol in the oral cavity, trachea, or large airways, prior to reaching the alveoli. Concurrently a cam activated second nozzle sprays an aerosol in the direction of the nose. The breath stream inhaled through the nasal content entrainment passage entrains the nasal aerosol flow and carries it into the nasal passages to trigger pleasant olfactory sensations.
The dissolved gas in both solutions is critical to facilitating the best aerosolization possible. This is because in addition to the aerosolization caused by the passage of the liquid through a designed orifice under pressure the dissolved gas coming out of solution as pressure drops creates myriads of micro bubbles imparting additional large quantities of random kinetic motion resulting in smaller mean particle size in the aerosol stream. The gases used will be soluble in the solutions but inert to the chemical constituents and safe for human and environmental health. Nitrogen and Carbon Dioxide are among the suitable gases.
In order for the nasal inhalation process to occur synchronously with the aerosol inhaled through the mouthpiece a cam on top of the shuttle allows the dispensing valve for the nasal solution to be opened as it rides onto a lower portion of the cam profile. This unique feature allows the nasal mechanism to be stopped and started independently of the shuttle motion. By substituting new cam profiles the opening and closing of the nasal aerosol valve can be adjusted to an infinite set of dispensing times.
Both can be fed from a common reservoir bag or more often separate bags that will allow the aroma aerosol to have no relationship to the aerosol delivered to the lungs. The merit of this approach is that it allows the user who is not focused on breathing just through his mouth or his nose but instead doing both to inhale two different substances at one time if that is desired. For example an insulin solution could deliver human DNA derived insulin to the lungs in small doses while the user was eating and taking puffs on the SCADDS device between bites. The insulin solution would be inhaled and entrained to the lungs while the nasal aroma solution might as an example provide a cinnamon or Vanilla aroma to enhance the pleasure the diabetic user took from his meal.
The reservoir bags are encased in a cartridge that inserts into the mouthpiece handle assembly end distal to the detachable mouthpiece. The entire product should fit conveniently in pocket or purse in the embodiments suitable for insulin, asthma medications, or tobacco extract delivery. The space in the cartridge outside the reservoir bags is filled with pressurized gas so that the bags inside the cartridge are not exposed to a significant pressure gradient since they will be filled within the cartridge and synchronously with pressuring the space outside the reservoir bags. This approach will allow the bags to be made from very thin, inexpensive, flexible polymer or elastomeric materials. The bags have integral self-sealing tops that allow filling during production and immediate resealing when the filling needles are removed.
For delivering a tobacco extract the design is augmented with a filter dividing the oral contents inhalation solution bag into a region with tobacco leaf fragments and a region without tobacco leaf fragments but in continuity at a molecular level, or a tobacco canister within the cartridge and connected to the oral contents reservoir by a filter or one-way valve. Alternatively, a semi-permeable membranous bag containing the tobacco fragments within the oral inhalation solution allows molecular diffusion while eliminating requirement for the dividing filter, one-way valve, and tobacco canister. In tobacco containing embodiments the cartridges are called Cleantines while the mouthpiece and handle assembly is called a Cigine. A Cigine will be used repeatedly as the user inhales aerosols from successive Cleantines. The one-way valve connects the tobacco leaf canister to the oral inhalation contents reservoir bag permitting free diffusion of components down their concentration gradients when the user is not actively inhaling. The semi-permeable membranous bag and the filter embodiments both allow diffusion at all times.
For delivering Albuterol or other solution for asthma or rapid acting inhaled insulin solution for diabetes or other therapeutic uses the device will simply be referred to as a SCADDS.
For delivering albuterol, ipratroprium bromide, pirbuterol acetate or other bronchodilator medication aerosols to the lungs in an incremental breath-driven manner the device functions such that each successive dose allows recruitment of more small airways thanks to the action of the prior dose. Patient compliance is aided by a release of a pleasant aroma inhaled nasally while the medication is inhaled orally. In the event the patient doesn't require the extra reinforcement of the aroma cartridge that portion of the device can be rendered inactive. The lack of any requirement for training to use the device since the activity will be similar to smoking is an additional advantage that the pulmonary disease medication application offers. The medication doses are contained in individual cartridges that the user will inhale typically over six to nine minutes during multiple breaths.
For delivering insulin solutions the device provides three micron sized particles in an aerosol inhaled intermittently during a meal. Aerosolization of insulin solutions thus changes any injectable regular insulin into predictable rapid acting inhaled insulin because absorption through the alveoli is much faster than subcutaneous absorption after injection. Thus an insulin solution could deliver human DNA derived insulin to the lungs in small doses while the user was eating and taking puffs on the SCADDS device between bites. The insulin solution would be inhaled and entrained to the lungs while the nasal aroma solution might provide a cinnamon or vanilla aroma to enhance the pleasure the diabetic user took from his meal. Cartridges of insulin solution and aroma solution would typically hold ten to twenty units of insulin and be stable for twenty-four hours after puncture. Thus a user might inhale 6 breaths of insulin during a meal that would require six units and 10 breaths for 10 units for a larger meal and the type II diabetic eating more and with more insulin resistance might require the 20 unit cartridge and take twenty breaths from his insulin cartridge during his potentially larger meal or to cope with his insulin resistance.
A system called the Cigine that combined with cartridges called Cleantines provides a version of the Self Contained Aerosol Dual Delivery System to deliver an aerosolized tobacco extract for the recreational tobacco user via the oral inhalation route while simultaneously delivering an aroma from a separate aroma reservoir that is inhaled nasally. The aroma substance can also be a solution of a tobacco extract or be independent to mimic use in other parts of the world where tobacco may be flavored with cinnamon, cardamom, or other compounds. In different embodiments aroma may be dispensed by driving either compressed gas or air over a liquid or solid or blowing it through a liquid confined by surface tension or capillary action when not receiving pressure thus eliminating the need for a nasal contents bag. In some cartridges for the recreational tobacco user most intent on mimicking prior tobacco use experiences, a small amount of cured tobacco will be sprayed with compressed gas to blow the volatile aroma compounds directly to the nostrils eliminating aerosol generation from solution for the nasal pathway.
In general the decoupling of tobacco extract and aroma should create a superior sensory experience for the recreational tobacco user along with the benefits of little to no tar, no carbon monoxide, no second-hand smoke production, and no need to be spitting the product out after use as in some smokeless tobacco products. Thus this system lets the recreational tobacco user enjoy tobacco without annoying, inconveniencing, or possibly endangering their neighbor any more than an office mate in the next cubicle having a cup of hot coffee and a doughnut. To further enhance the no neighbor annoyance feature a version of the Cleantine cartridge will be offered that eliminates the nasal solution or olfactory sensation source. This Cleantine cartridge will consist of the usual solution of water, salts, refined tobacco extracts, dissolved gas to aid aerosolization and possibly a small amount of alcohol to enhance organic compound solubilities in the solution that fills the oral inhalation reservoir and the tobacco canister. This oral inhalation solution bathes the tobacco leaf and other tobacco plant fragments in the tobacco cartridge that continue to give off compounds to enrich the solution as a whole until it is inhaled as an aerosol in the manner outlined previously in the summary of the invention and subsequently in the description of the drawings.
The recreational tobacco user will determine which cartridge is preferred for his or her pleasure over time. Special versions for use in low pressure (for example climbing Mount Hood or driving up Pikes Peak), high pressure, low ambient temperature (for example winter in Boston, Mass.), high ambient temperature (for example Death Valley, Calif.) can be manufactured for specialized markets by modifying the Cigine by altering the shuttle, including the adjustment screw, or producing Cleantine cartridges with different pressures.
The device functions for delivering an aerosolized solution of water soluble vitamins such as B12, folate, thiamine, etc. along with a pleasant aroma solution. This mode of taking vitamins may offer the user more pleasant alternative to the widening list of pills he or she swallows each morning to supplement their diet and puts the vitamins into the blood stream faster than oral routes permit.
The device functions as a system for delivering inhaled medication for relief of nausea from seasickness, airsickness, chemotherapy, or other causes. The SCADDS system is readily adaptable to treating nausea by creating an oral inhalation solution aerosol with scopolamine, tetrahydrocannabinol, meclizine, or other anti-nausea medications that the user inhales with the same ease he might smoke a cigarette on a pitching and rolling deck. For seasickness and chemotherapy nausea, the nasal aerosol pathway would be inactive in most embodiments since almost any smell is unsettling to the truly nauseated. The rapidity of onset allows the user to avoid being overly sedated by taking prophylactic anti-nausea remedies prior to onset of symptoms.
The device functions as a system for delivering inhaled acetylcholinesterase inhibitors and butylcholinesterase inhibitors for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and multi-infarct dementia. The ease of use of the SCADDS system with the reinforcement provided by a pleasant aroma accompanying each dose of medication should appeal to the Alzheimer's patient and their caregiver. Reducing the stimulus to excess stomach acid production since the inhaled route will reduce dosage requirements is another advantage.
For therapeutic applications the cartridges can be supplied with an exact dose such that the entire dose is completely delivered upon exhaustion of the cartridge. The user will be aware of this by the synchronous decline is olfactory sensation.
A system in which the SCADDS mouthpiece, handle assembly, and cartridge are combined as a single disposable unit for one time medical or recreational use can be produced.
In an alternative embodiment of the Self Contained Dual Aerosol Delivery System the mouthpiece and handle assembly are free of valves and devoid of cam-lock assembly. It still contains a shuttle on a shaft and penetration needles. When the mouth-piece handle assembly is connected to the cartridge, the shuttle shaft hooks to a valve in the cartridge. Inhaling moves the shuttle which opens the valve which permits gas from the pressurized gas reservoir in the cartridge to provide external driving pressure on the oral solution and nasal solution inhalation bags such that their contents release through the penetration needles that connect to nozzles in the mouthpiece handle assembly as before.
The cartridge valve system is normally biased closed via gas pressure or spring force such that once inhalation pressure drops below valve opening pressure the gas flow stops and delivery of oral and nasal aerosols ceases. The cracking pressure of the valve can be controlled by adjusting spring pressure again for different applications as before. In this configuration the cartridge valve only needs to function reliably for delivery of a single cartridge's contents. This may allow less expensive valve components and eliminates concerns about cleaning the mouthpiece handle assembly between uses to preserve reliable function. The reservoir bags are exceedingly compliant. Therefore almost no energy is lost deforming the elastomeric or polymeric reservoir bags.
These and further and other objects and features of the invention are apparent in the disclosure, which includes the above and ongoing written specification, with the drawings and the claims.

Carolina Hurricanes goalie Cam Ward makes a save during the first period against the Minnesota Wild. / Brace Hemmelgarn, USA TODAY Sports
Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Cam Ward will be out three to four weeks after suffering a lower-body injury in Thursday's game.
He was hurt reaching for a wide shot by the Minnesota Wild's Mikael Granlund.
Minnesota goalie Josh Harding also left the game, failing to return after the second intermission.
Coach Mike Yeo called it a lower-body injury and said he didn't know the severity.
The team recalled Johan Gustafsson.
The Hurricanes placed Ward on the injured list on Friday.
Carolina backup goaltender Anton Khudobin also is hurt, so the Hurricanes called up Mike Murphy on an emergency basis to back up Justin Peters.
This is the second consecutive season that Ward has missed significant time.
Last season, he suffered a sprained knee in March when then-teammate Joe Corvo slid into him, and Ward missed the rest of the season.
It has been a rough few days for NHL goaltenders.
The Nashville Predators announced Thursday that Pekka Rinne is out at least four weeks after surgery to clean up a bacterial infection in his hip.
New York Rangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist missed Thursday's game with an undisclosed injury. He's day-to-day.

New bar opening at old site of legendary Chukker
Published: Friday, January 30, 2004 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 29, 2004 at 11:00 p.m.
TUSCALOOSA | A new bar at the site of the old Chukker could be open as soon as next weekend.
The new bar's owner is planning a Feb. 12 opening, but he said he could be open for business the first full weekend of February.
Dennis Sprague, a California native and University of Alabama junior, said that the bar, Stu Whittaker's, will/sfeature bands and cater to a college crowd.
"We're going for a totally opposite crowd," he said.
The Tuscaloosa City Council on Thursday approved beer and liquor licenses for the bar.
Sprague said he will advertise through fraternity and sorority social chairmen and host events for Greek organizations at the bar on Sixth Street.
Some of the artwork painted on the walls and ceiling will be covered, he said, but some will be preserved.
The Chukker opened in 1956 and closed on Nov. 1, 2003.
A proposed urban renewal plan for downtown Tuscaloosa would call for many buildings on Sixth Street to be demolished, including the bar.
"It is a concern," Sprague said. "I would love to have them never tear it down. It doesn't look like it's going to happen anytime soon."

In the midst of a struggling economy, there is one sector that is rapidly growing – booming, in fact. That sector is health care. Just as the baby boomers flooded the market with a demand for toys and diapers in the 1950s, so are they now flooding the market with a need for increased health care.
An aging population and major changes to the healthcare system in the U.S. translates into a huge demand for skilled workers who can tend to patients in all realms of health care. In the past eight years, health care employment has seen steady growth – one of the very sectors that can claim this bragging right. More recently, in the past twelve months, the health care industry has added an average of 24,000 jobs per month, according to government statistics, while other industries have been barely holding on.
And this trend is expected to continue. In the next ten years, more and more baby boomers will reach retirement age, and changes to the health care system under "Obamacare," which have already begun and will continue through 2014, include mandating health insurance for American citizens, allowing children to stay on parents' plans until age 26 and replacing paper records with electronic records.
For people interested in pursuing a career in the medical field or one that is closely related to it, now is the best time to receive training. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that these 9 health care fields will be seeing significant growth from now until 2018:
- Billing and Accounting
Medical billing specialists and accountants are expected to grow 66% by 2018, mostly due to the increased number of Americans who will possess health insurance.
- Cardiovascular Technicians
High blood pressure, heart disease and stroke are more common in older adults. Technicians will be needed to operate the machinery, and this sector is expected to grow 52%.
- Public Relations Specialists
As the health care industry becomes more technologically savvy, smartphones and social media will become more common tools of the trade, in addition to traditional machinery. Therefore, hospital public relations will grow 52%.
- Physician Assistants
This arena will see another 52% increase, as physician assistants will be needed to take on more and more patients and help fill in the widening doctor gap.
- Pharmacy Technicians
52% more pharmacy technicians will be placed in hospitals, nursing homes, retail stores or pharmacies to help distribute the influx of pharmaceuticals to patients who need them.
- Massage Therapists
A slow shift toward alternative forms of medicine means that massage therapists may increase by 52%. Older adults will always be able to use a great massage.
- Nursing
The field of nursing will see a boost, with practical nursing growing 21% and registered nurses increasing by 43%. More patients in hospitals mean a greater demand for skilled nurses.
- Counseling, Clinical and School Psychologists
