Medical examiner: Lorenzen Wright's body was shot in head, chest, arm
Former NBA player Lorenzen Wright had at least two gunshot wounds to the head, two to the chest and one to the right forearm, according to an autopsy report released Wednesday by the Shelby County Medical Examiner.
Additional gunshot wounds could not be ruled out, the report said.
Wright's decomposed body was found July 28 in a field near Winchester and Hacks Cross in Southeast Memphis, six days after his mother reported him missing, nine days after a cell phone in his possession was used to call Germantown 911.
When Wright played in the 2008-09 season for the Cleveland Cavaliers, he was a 6-foot-11 255-pound forward and center. His nearly skeletonized remains weighed 57 pounds.
According to the report, a bullet jacket was found in his skull. No drugs were found in his system.
Wright, 34, wore a shirt, pants with a belt and a pair of shoes. He also had several personal effects, including a necklace with two tags and a white, metal watch. The report does not mention a wallet or cell phone.
Law enforcement officials have not released details about the homicide investigation and are still asking the public to call Memphis Crime Stoppers with information.
Last month, the Memphis City Council unanimously approved $5,000 rewards in two unsolved homicide cases, including Wright's, hoping the extra money would bring in more tips.
Wright's ex-wife, Sherra Robinson Wright, told Collierville police on July 27 that he left her house on July 19 "around 10:30 p.m. carrying a box of drugs."
He returned a short time later then left a second time with cash, she said.
Her account to police came five days after Wright's mother reported him missing.
Sherra Wright told detectives that her ex-husband had a conversation on "a 'tracfone' or similar cellular telephone" with an unidentified person before he left with the drugs and money. She also told police he owned an iPhone and made calls from both cells while at her house.
According to an affidavit, shell casings of different calibers were recovered with Wright's body, but the cell phones he used on the night of his death were not recovered.
On the night of Wright's death, Germantown 911 dispatch took a call from a cell phone in his possession. Sources have told The Commercial Appeal that as many as a dozen gunshots can be heard on a recording of the call. A male voice can be heard uttering an expletive and then rapid gunfire.
Wright's mother, Deborah Marion, said Wednesday that she didn't want to see the report.
"I just want to remember him as he was, living in one piece, not shot up," she said.
She said she hopes the case is solved before the holidays.
"I want it solved before Christmas because he has six kids," she said. "It would be a great Christmas present for his six kids."

The commercial court has extended an order stopping Barclays Bank from auctioning a Thika farmer's plot over a Sh1 million debt.
Justice Leonard Njagi sitting at the Milimani Commercial Courts refused to lift orders stopping the bank from selling Edward Mbugua's farm pending hearing of the suit on April 13. The bank sought the orders after Mbugua asked for adjournment of the hearing of the case.
The judge also extended orders prohibiting the Thika District Land Registrar from registering any transfer pertaining to land parcels belonging to Mbugua.
Mbugua moved to court seeking orders restraining the bank from auctioning his land, saying he had already paid a Sh500,000 loan advanced to him and his family in 1998.
The matter could not proceed because Mbugua had only just instructed a lawyer to represent him. The lawyer applied for adjournment saying he needed more time to file a supplementary affidavit in the suit. Justice Njagi granted the request and directed that the case be heard without further delay.
In his affidavit Mbugua said the bank advanced Sh500,000 to his family in 1998 which they cleared. He said last year he started receiving contradictory letters from the bank.
He said the first letter from the bank was demanded clearance of Sh1 million, while the second letter demanded Sh4 million. He said their loan had been written off in 2002 and they had no outstanding balance.
Mbugua said despite several demands for the bank to supply him with correct and proper accounts of outstanding liabilities, the bank has refused.
He said on August 9, 2010 he received notification of sale of their land from the bank's auctioneers.

If you think you can do the WHOLE thing in one trip, you might as well go do Dakar instead, because it's about the same difficulty, and in Dakar they at least have helicopters and sweep trucks to quickly pick up your body or your bike.

Each roadbook (stage) starts and ends at a strategic "bivouac" location. On many of the stages it would be difficult or impossible to stage anyplace in between. Nearly all the bivouac locations are easily accessible by highway or good dirt road, and are either in town at a motel, or are at campground type locations. The stages with remote bivouacs could be skipped depending on the support available. The locations of the bivouacs will be provided with the roadbooks.
Don't expect detailed course maps or GPS tracks to be available. As rallies go, the course should not be known except as specified in the roadbooks, which won't be available until the last possible minute. Generally the roadbooks for one stage are handed out after the previous stage is completed.

Generally each long stage starts near a gas station, passes through a gas station mid-day, and ends near a gas station. Most stages have a couple of crossings of paved roads or highways along the way. For the most part, those pavement crossings will be the bailout points. Given that I try to put lots of hard stuff in as much as possible, an amateur rider skipping all the hard stuff will not get much dirt at all. The bailouts are more for mechanical issues and injuries. In the future I'd like to go through it stage by stage and plan dirt easy way bypasses for the most difficult spots, but that won't come for a while. In the beginning, those with lesser riding skills should not attempt The Grand Rally, or at least not a lot of it.
One of the main motivators for me putting this route together is to provide challenging rally training roadbooks for Jonah Street, Quinn Cody, and any other top Dakar competitor. To be challenging for those guys, it has to be pretty tough. The Grand Rally is an extremely challenging ride, for hardcore rally racers.
For those looking for a less difficult super cool dual sport adventure ride around the Grand Canyon, I suggest you check out Crawdaddy and Strega's ride instead. They picked more manageable roads and provided their GPS track file.

Lowenstein Low Amateur at North Dakota Open
Aug. 25, 2014
Golden Gophers senior Tyler Lowenstein was the low amateur at the Bobcat North Dakota Open over the weekend. He carded a 3-under 69 on Friday and posted even-par rounds the next two days to claim the top amateur spot by one stroke.
"Tyler has done a nice job of working himself into a leadership role within Gopher Golf coming into the 2014-15 competitive season," head coach John Carlson said. "Winning the amateur division at the North Dakota State Open with three solid rounds is the culmination of many hours of preparation for his senior year as a Gopher. I asked all the players after our 2014 Big Ten Championship and NCAA Regional appearance to enjoy the summer of competition and time with family, while keeping in mind to have a goal of bringing total confidence in their games to the Gopher Invitational Sept. 7."
Sophomore Grady Meyer finished sixth among amateurs, and incoming freshman Riley Johnson tied for seventh. Transfer William Leaf, a sophomore, finished 17th.

The State of Oklahoma was created on November 16, 1907. It currently has 77 Counties.
The State of Oklahoma is bordered by Arkansas (west), Colorado (northwest), Kansas, Missouri (northeast), New Mexico (northwest), Texas (west, south). It has a land area of 69,903 square miles making it the 20th largest state. The capital is Oklahoma City and the official state website is www.ok.gov/.
The state's 2010 population was 3,751,351 . The largest cities (2010) are Oklahoma City (Capital), 579,999; Tulsa, 391,906; Norman, 110,925; Lawton, 96,867; Broken Arrow, 98,850; Edmond , 81,405; Moore, 55,081; Midwest City, 54,371; Enid, 49,379; Stillwater, 45,688.
The State of Oklahoma's name is from the Choctaw Indian words "okla" meaning people and "humma" meaning red. The state nickname is " Sooner State " which references the first day homesteading was permitted (April 22, 1889), 50,000 people swarmed into the area. Those who tried to beat the noon starting gun were called "Sooners," hence the state's nickname and the state Motto is " Labor omnia vincit " which means Labor Conquers All Things.
See more information about Oklahoma's Counties.
Originally, a portion of Oklahoma was designated and Indian Territory and meant for Native American settlement. The other part of the state was known as "Oklahoma Territory" and became open to white settlers near the end of the 1800s. Certain settlers, known as Sooners, tried to settle on land in one section of Oklahoma before they were legally entitled to the land, which is how the state got the nickname of the "Sooner State."
On November 16,1907 Oklahoma became the 46th state in the United States. Both the names of certain parts of the state and the population of the state clearly show its Native American history. The largest city in the state, Oklahoma City, is also the state's capital.
Oklahoma has one of the most unusual histories and organization of any of the United States. That is due to the fact that its boundaries and jurisdictions have changed so many times over the years, which is partially a result of the fact that it was originally a merging of Indian Territory and Oklahoma Territory.
Up until 1803, the area now known as Oklahoma was mainly owned by the Spanish and the French. After that point, it was purchased from France by the United States. The area fell under the jurisdictions of Indiana, Missouri and Arkansas on 1803, 1812 and 1819, respectively. During that time, several forts were constructed along its Red River.
As far back as 1804 there were attempts made to move certain tribes to the Mississippi River's western side. However, the vast majority of tribe removal was not done until the years 1825 to 1842. When those groups were moved to what later became eastern Oklahoma and western Arkansas, it was agreed upon that the Five Civilized Tribes could stay there for "as long as the grass shall grow and rivers run." Those tribes are Seminole, Creek, Chickasaw, Cherokee and Choctaw. They were moved along a route that became known as the "Trail of Tears" because of all of the Native American deaths and tragedies experienced during the movement. After the move was complete, the tribes set up schooling, government systems, newspapers and farms. Towson, Washita and Gibson Forts were constructed in an effort to keep U.S. citizens and raiding plains tribes from invading the area belonging tot he Five Civilized Tribes.
The Oklahoma panhandle was originally part of the Republic of Texas when the United States acquired it in 1845. Congress purchased the panhandle in 1850, but it stayed independent from any state or territory. Congress chose to keep the panhandle strip excluded from Indian territory in 1854, despite pressure from the railway companies. The Choctaw and Chicksaw nations had allowed the southwestern third of what is now Oklahoma to be leased out as plains tribes hunting ground until the time of the Civil War.
There was dissension within the tribes when the Civil War started because some members supported the Confederacy, while others supported the Union and some tried to stay entirely neutral during the war. The Five Civilized Tribes agreed with the majority, who were in support of the Confederate cause.
The federal government required new treaties in 1866, in order to both respond to the Native Americans supporting the Confederate cause and to make it possible for free black people to become landowners. The result was that the size of the reservations was reduced and other tribes were allowed to move into the area. Over the next seventeen years, many tribes moved into what is now Oklahoma. A tract of land in the middle of Oklahoma remained unassigned, as did a large part of the Cherokee Outlet (the Kansas border region).
From 1865 to 1889, many settlers, railroad workers, cattlemen and soldiers illegally populated parts of Indian Territory. Others claimed to be "artisans" contracting with the tribes, which allowed them to take advantage of a legal loophole and live in the region.
The first railroad in the area was constructed to connect Texas, Kansas and Missouri, in 1872. People began to call Indian Territory "the promised land" because there were rumors of free land and prime grazing areas for livestock. The land between Texas and Kansas contained several major trails, including Payne, Plummer, Couch, East and West Shawnee, Chisholm and the Great Western Trail.
David L. Payne led a march of 20 people who were in favor of legalizing territory settlement. Those people were known as "Boomers" and defied the federal government by crossing the border between Oklahoma and Kansas. Over the next half a decade, many other boomers followed them.
In 1889, there was a major change in the settlement of the area. Sixty-five tribes had populated the area up to that point. However, the federal government then opened up the "Unassigned Lands" to new homesteads and the first "homestead run" was on April 22, 1889. While many people waited on the boundaries of the Indian Territory and Canadian River until they were given the signal to settle, many people did not wait. Those settlers who jumped the gun, known as "Sooners," gave the state its nickname and also gave rise to many land disputes that had to be settled in the courts.
It took only one day for an estimates 50,000 people to settle the area, shifting the area to primarily non-native settlements. Over 10,000 people settled in Oklahoma City alone, setting up a tent town, which later grew into the state's capital as it's known today. Norman, Kingfisher and Gutherie were other major towns of the time.
Land run trails began in Kansas, running south. Some of the most well-known of them were Caldwell, Ponca, Black Bear and Wild Horse. There were also stage routes that ran from Fort Reno eastward, from Arkansas westward and from Kansas southward. For example, from Fort Smith, Arkansas, the Butterfield Stage ran all the way to the Red River. There was also a Poawatomie land wagon road that ran along the North Canadian River as well. A railroad line connecting Seward, Kingfisher and Guthrie was also constructed.
As of May, 1890, what is now Oklahoma was split into Indian Territory and Oklahoma Territory. The eastern half of the state and the area along the border of Kansas, known as Cherokee Outlet, were in Indian Territory. Oklahoman Territory, meanwhile, included the "No Man's Land" (panhandle) and the area from the Kansas border to Greer County (Unassigned Lands), as well as the southwestern section of the state. Soon, Oklahoma Territory began to develop governments in the various territories.
Cattlemen were not legally allowed to lease grazing land from Indian tribes in the 1890s. Native Americans were also forced by Congress to take individual land allotments, rather than a tribal land allotment. In 1893, the Dawes Commission was established. Its job was to supervise the change over from tribal government to state organization, as well as to allot the land and register each Native American tribe member. In 1891, 1892, 1895, 1904 and 1906, more land was opened up to homesteaders as a response to high demand.
Oklahoma grew to include over half of what is now the western half of the state, by 1900. Indian Territory, meanwhile, rapidly shrank until it was just a small part of the eastern portion of what is now the state of Oklahoma. Greer county was originally under the jurisdiction of Texas, but in 1896 it became officially part of Oklahoma Territory. Congress decided, in June of 1906, that Indian Territory and Oklahoma Territory could join the union as a single state, but only if the natives and the non-natives approved of that plan. That lead to President Theodore Roosevelt giving Oklahoma its statehood status on November, 16, 1907. Guthrie was the capital of Oklahoma until 1910, when Oklahoma City became its capital.
European settlers came to the area mainly because of ore and mineral deposits. However, these days both petroleum and coal make up a lot of the state's industry. In fact, the petroleum industry helped the state to deal with produce and livestock declines. Six railroads were present in the state by the 1930s and they all ran to Oklahoma City.
The fact that Oklahoma was made up of both native and non-native settlers and that so many records were kept makes Oklahoma genealogical research particularly interesting. It is also worth noting that even today Oklahoma contains one of the highest Native American populations of any state in the country.
Both from a cultural and a physical perspective, Oklahoma is a very diverse state. It contains plains, dry areas, woodlands and mountains. It is also economically diverse, with industries ranging from lumber to wheat and many things in between, depending on which part of the state you look at.

PALM DESERT — And then there's the permanent ailment.
Free-throw shooting.
Shaquille O'Neal finished the regular season at 52.7%, a considerable jump from the 48.4% in his first Laker campaign, but still only the fourth-best showing in his six-year career. On the other hand, it marked the first season-to-season improvement in that category and he finished relatively strong, going 63.3% over the final 10 games and 67.2% the last five.
That has become the other tradition for him at the line. O'Neal, in another closing kick, made 63.5% of his free throws in the five games of 1996-97 between the return from a knee injury and the start of the postseason.
"I just like to raise my level of play for the playoffs," he said by way of explanation.
Said Coach Del Harris: "I'd have to agree. . . . Maybe his focus increases as the season goes on. It would be good if he could see that's an important thing at the beginning of the season as well."

2 officers killed in Okla. pursuit
The Okla. Highway Patrol says two officers and a suspect have died during a pursuit
By Kristi Eaton
Associated Press
OKLAHOMA CITY — Two law enforcement officers who were killed when their cars collided during a police pursuit in western Oklahoma have been identified by the Oklahoma Highway Patrol.
The patrol said Burns Flat police officer Kristian Willhight, 36, of Foss, died in Thursday's collision along with Washita County Undersheriff Brian Beck, 39, of Canute. The patrol said neither officer was wearing a seat belt.
Authorities said Beck was attempting to serve a suspect with a felony warrant about 9:40 a.m. in Sentinel when the suspect fled in a vehicle. The suspect, identified as Quentin Lee Johnson, was killed in a crash about 30 minutes later near Dill City, investigators said. Beck and Willhight collided a short time later.
The crash remains under investigation, and authorities have not yet said what led to the collision.
Both accidents happened in an area about 110 miles west of Oklahoma City. It's not clear how the Burns Flat officer became involved in the pursuit, officials said.
Washita County, where Dill City and Burns Flat are both located, has about 11,600 residents. Oklahoma Highway Patrol Lt. Brian Orr said both the sheriff's office and police department are small and their officers are well-known in their communities.
"It's very tragic for not only the police department but the community itself," Orr said. "You just lost two officers that keep you safe at night. It hits home, not only for these agencies but for law enforcement in general for the state of Oklahoma and nationwide."
According to the Officer Down Memorial Page, a database of slain law enforcement officers, before Thursday's deaths 16 officers in Oklahoma previously died in vehicle pursuits.

Here are two more quick projects from the Vintage Nesting shower I threw a couple of weeks ago. The first is a quick tutorial on handmade tablecloths and napkins – it's so easy to take a basic fabric remnant and turn it into themed linens for your entire party.
I found these teal damask prints at Joanns and used a spray adhesive to quickly hem them. *In retrospect I would use iron-on hem tape as my no-sew solution because my lovely linens did not hold up so well after multiple washings.*
For the entire step-by-step directions, check out the 'read more' button at the bottom of this post.
End result!
The second DIY project involved star shaped book bunting (unfortunately I didn't get the best picture of the bunting – which was connected via tiny vintage brads – but here are a couple of shots where I used the book art on the various shower tables and pin board). It's a vintage decoration that can be added anywhere.
Battle Cry of Freedom sacrificed itself for this project… I used the pages to make a multi-point star template that became table top decoration added amidst pictures of the mom-to-be and even connected at the points for a bunting that could be strung between doors, windows, on tables and behind a dessert buffet.
More step-by-steps for the handmade linens after the jump! …

Respiratory Distress in the Newborn: Recognition and Treatment WADAH KHRIESAT,MD Respiratory Distress • Hyaline Membrane Disease- major cause – Pathophysiology – Surfactant and ventilator therapy Must distinguish from other causes: • Transient Tachypnea of the Newborn • Pneumonia/sepsis Evaluation of respiratory distress • H+P • CXR • Hematocrit • Blood Glucose • Blood pressure • Blood gas status Clinical Features aid in diagnosis • Gestational age • Historical risk factors for infection • Type of distress- grunting,flaring, retractions, tachypnea • Associated anomalies • Radiographs Transient Tachypnea of the Newborn • Mild and self-limited • Increased RR, no retractions, mild cyanosis • FiO2 < 0.4 • Usually term infants, C/S and maternal IV fluids associated • CXR with prominent vascular markings Transient Tachypnea of the Newborn • Delayed resorption of fetal lung fluid • Must consider, and rule out pneumonia • Treat with antibiotics if diagnosis is uncertain – Oxygen need beyond six hours – Oxygen need increasing – Worsening symptoms 6 Meconium aspiration syndrome • MSF in 10-15% of births • Rare before 34 weeks gestation • More likely with thick staining or particulate MSF • Thin staining in vigorous infant requires no special Rx • Can't prevent all MAS Meconium Aspiration • CXR- increased density, irregular infiltrates – areas of hyper-expansion, areas of collapse – Fluffy non-homogeneous infiltrates • May be hard to distinguish from retained fluid, pneumonia Neonatal Respiratory Disease • Not every infant with respiratory symptoms has respiratory disease • Consider Extra-pulmonary causes: – Heart disease – Hypovolemia, polycythemia, anemia – Acidosis, hypoglycemia, hypothermia – CNS hemorrhage, drugs, muscle disease Hyaline Membrane Disease(HMD) • Once the major cause of mortality in premature infants • Progress in treatment mirrors advances in neonatal medicine • Effective treatment has improved survival at gestational ages as low as 24 weeks HMD - Clinical features • Disorder of premature infants • Respiratory distress – tachypnea, grunting,flaring, retractions • Difficult to distinguish from pneumonia • Severity peaks at 24-48 hours, resolution by 72-96 hours (without surfactant therapy) • Recovery prolonged by barotrauma or oxidative injury HMD - Pathologic features • Characteristic injury to terminal airways beginning within the first few breaths • Lungs are solid, congested, with destruction of epithelium of terminal conducting airways • Hyaline membranes: coagulum of sloughed cells and exudate,plastered against epithelial basement membrane HMD- Pathophysiology • Instability of terminal airspaces due to elevated surface forces at liquid-gas interfaces • Stable alveolar volume depends on a balance between: 1)surface tension at the liquid-gas interface, and 2) recoil of tissue elasticity HMD - Pathophysiology • Terminal airspaces are not uniform throughout the lung • There is a range of critical opening and critical closing pressures in various alveoli • Some alveoli remain collapsed, some are ventilated but collapse during expiration, and some remain ventilated during inspiration and expiration (the goal) Lung Function in HMD • Reduction in FRC from 30 ml/kg, to as low as 4-5 ml/kg. Caused by loss of volume and interstitial edema. • FRC mirrors changes in oxygenation. Improvements can be due to distending pressure, surfactant replacement, or clinical resolution Lung Function in HMD • Lung Compliance is also reduced: from 1-2 to 0.2 -0.5 ml/cmH2O-kg • Reduction due to decreased number of ventilated alveoli, and increase in recoil pressure of ventilated airspaces • Lung resistance is significantly increased • Usually, impairment in ventilation is less pronounced than altered oxygenation Initial Care • Maintain warmth- cold stress will mimic other causes of distress • Monitor blood glucose levels- assure they are normal • Provide enough oxygen to keep the baby pink Temperature Control • Body Temperature that is too high or too low will increase metabolic demands • When oxygen uptake is further compromised by disease, increased demand can not be met • Servo controlled warmers are very helpful, but can be mimicked by frequent assessment Temperature Control First things first: • Dry the baby • Keep the baby warm • Use shields to decrease evaporative and convective losses • PUT A HAT ON THE BABY! Initial Care Ensure adequate hydration: • Start fluids at 70-80 ml/kg/d 10% glucose solution • Smaller babies may need more fluid • Add electrolytes by the second day • On day 3-4 watch for diuresis Assess circulation • Monitor heart rate • Assess Blood pressure • Check peripheral perfusion and capillary refill • Avoid excessive blood sampling Initial Care Consider other etiologies: • INFECTION,INFECTION – Evaluate – Begin antibiotic therapy as prophylaxis – Continue as clinically indicated • Anatomic malformations Clinical features • Risk factors: – Prematurity – maternal diabetes, maternal bleeding, perinatal asphyxia, C-section without labor – White race, male sex • Features : – Early onset, from birth to four hours – uncomplicated clinical course with progressive worsening until day 2-3 and onset of recovery by 72 hours Clinical features (contd) • Physical Examination – Brief but thorough – Signs of respiratory distress : • Cyanosis • Tachypnea ( >60/min, shallow, rapid ) • Grunting ( delayed expiration maintains FRC ) • Retraction ( Subcostal, substernal, intercostal ) • Flaring ( 50% airway resist in nose& pharynx) – Temperature, Blood pressure, Skin perfusion Management • Concepts – Respiratory • Prevent hypoxia and acidosis • Prevent worsening atelectasis, edema • Minimize barotrauma and hyperoxia – Supportive management • Optimize fluid and nutrition management • Perfusion, Infection, Temperature control Surfactant replacement therapy • When: Prophylaxis (prevention) vs. Treatment (rescue) ; Early vs. Late • What: Synthetic preparation (Exosurf) vs. Mixed Natural/Synthetic (Survanta) • How: Administration : Indications, Dosage, Technique • Additives : Antioxidants Surfactant replacement therapy • Prophylaxis vs Rescue – Four major trials so far ( Dunn et al, Kendig et al, Merritt et al, Egberts et al ) – No significant difference in mortality, BPD. Possible minor decrease in pneumothorax with prophylaxis – Prophylaxis leads to overtreatment, logistics difficult - immediate manipulation in delivery room Surfactant replacement therapy • Early treatment vs. delayed selective treatment – The OSIRIS Collaborative Group 1992 – Early (<2hrs age) vs delayed selective treatment :6774 babies, international – Early treatment led to a small, but significant reduction in risk of death or O2 dependence at term-adjusted age (RR 0.84) Surfactant replacement therapy • Dosage: Survanta 4cc/kg (Max 8cc) q 6-12 ( 100mg/kg phospholipids ) • Administer through side-port ETT adapter, do not need to remove from vent or pass catheter • Three doses better than one dose ( American Exosurf Neonatal Study ) • Two doses as good as 3-4 doses ( OSIRIS) • Minimum two doses; if sick, may give up to 4. • Retreatment criteria open to question Surfactant replacement therapy • Unclear if positioning is required during administration • Commonest side effects are transient bradycardia and desaturation • Rare association with pulmonary hemorrhage ( temporal association with PDA ) • Rapid improvement in PO2 due to better V/Q matching, slower improvement in PCO2 and compliance. CPAP • Indication: Significant respiratory distress, FiO2 > 0.40 • Start with Nasal prong CPAP, 5 cm H2O pressure, flow 5-10 lpm, FiO2 0.40-0.60 • Increase pressure in steps of 1-2 cm H2O till 8-9 depending on resp effort and PO2. • Wean by decreasing FiO2 in steps of 0.05 till 0.40, then wean CPAP in steps of 1-2 cm H2O till 4-5, then discontinue. CPAP • Concept: – Prevents atelectasis – reduces pulmonary edema – shifts infant to breathe on more compliant portion of pressure volume curve • Problems: – High CPAP may decrease venous return – High CPAP may decrease minute ventilation – Abdominal distension, open mouth, crying Mechanical Ventilation • Indications: – PCO2 >55 or rapidly increasing / pH<7.25 – PO2 <50 with FiO2 >0.6-1.0 – Severe apnea • No role for elective intubation, whatever the birth weight – Babies grow just as well, whether on the ventilator or not. – Risks of intubation and barotrauma considerable. More ET / IMV=More BPD. Mechanical Ventilation • Initial settings – PIP 20-25 , PEEP 4-5 cm H2O – Frequency 20-40/min – Ti 0.4-0.5 sec – Previously required FiO2 0.5-1.0 – Manual ventilation with anesthesia bag and mask will give an idea of pressures required. Mechanical Ventilation • Continuous flow, pressure-limited, time-cycled ventilator conventional • Adjustments – PO2 50-80 mmHg – PCO2 45-55 mmHg – pH 7.25-7.40 – Blood gases q4-6 or more frequently + 15- 20 mins following vent changes – ET suctioning as required. Chest physiotherapy in acute RDS not required, may be associated with IVH. Mechanical Ventilation • Weaning once infant improves – Lower PIP to 30 in steps of 2-4 cmH20 – Next reduce FiO2 to 50-60% by decrements of 5% – Then reduce PIP to 20 and PEEP to 5 in steps of 1-2 – Decrease FiO2 to 40% – Decrease rate to 10-15/min; then PIP to 15-18, FiO2 to 30% – Extubate tiny premies to NCPAP. May try larger babies on ETCPAP. Acute Complications • Air Leak Syndromes – Consider with sudden change in condition – More common if baby receiving ventilatory support – Pneumothorax most common • Therapy – None if stable – Oxygen 100% – Thorocentesis: Needle or tube Acute Complications • Intracranial Hemorrhage – High risk if HMD is severe – More common at lower gestational ages – Rare above 33 weeks gestation • Suspect if there is a sudden change in condition • May coincide with development of air leak • Signs: change in Fontanel, perfusion Acute Complications • Patent Ductus arteriosus – Usually evident during resolution phase • Signs of Congestive Heart Failure – Increased oxygen need – Cardiomegaly – Acidosis, decreased urine output • Therapy: – Decrease fluid intake – Indomethacin

Ford History Lesson
John McElroy should read a little automotive history before he writes. He includes Henry Ford with the likes of Walter P. Chrysler (see WAW — Jan. '06, p.21). Has McElroy never heard of the $5 workday? How about the 8-hour workday? And what about health care? Ford led the way!
In an ideal world, labor and management should be on the same page, working together.
Chuck Dohogne
Rancho Palos Verdes, CA
Unfounded Generalization
Painting everyone with the same brush, as John McElroy did in "Who's the Boss?" can be a dangerous action, or at the very least, an irresponsible one.
I believe it to be in error to state, as Mr. McElroy did in his third paragraph, that all of the Big Three are paying $65 an hour for lawns to be mowed, for janitorial services, or for snow removal.
As a V-6 Operations employee of Ford Motor Co., I have yet to personally see $65 for any job, task or position. If Mr. McElroy is stating an hourly wage plus benefits, he should declare it to be such and then verify the accuracy of his numbers.
At Ford Motor Co., Lima Engine Plant, we have worked tirelessly to change our environment from the old Taylor management system to an effective, hourly team-based organization. Our goal is nothing less than to be the most efficient and cost effective engine plant on the planet, regardless of the sign on the street.
In doing so, a number of necessary and logical changes have been made in recent years. At our facility, outside contractors are not only used for snow removal, lawn care and janitorial services, but for security operations as well. All of these efforts and others were undertaken to place the Lima Engine Plant as one of the most efficient operations within Ford Powertrain.
With all of that in mind and our daily efforts through continuous improvement, it is again disturbing to see everyone in unionized automobile manufacturing viewed in the same light. Perhaps with this sort of information in his possession, Mr. McElroy can embark on some continuous improvement of his own.
Keith Bicknell
Lima, OH
Editor's note: The $65 an hour figure used by McElroy is the total cost of an hourly UAW worker to an employer. It includes wages, health care and retirement benefits.
Hybrids More Than Hype
Mr. Winter's "Unplugging the Hybrid Hype" (see WAW — Jan. '06, p.32) reaches a new low-level of misleading propaganda. What matters is how the hybrid application performs relative to a non-hybrid, not how it performs relative to some arbitrary "hype."
Given two similar vehicles of equal accelerative performance, the hybrid will be much more efficient under some conditions, and only a little bit more efficient under other conditions. But it will be better all of the time, and significantly so on average, even without resorting to such silliness as foregoing cabin heating.
The hybrid gets much closer to making fuel consumption proportional to the actual mechanical energy used, which gives the driver more opportunity to improve.
How can that be a bad thing? If printing Mr. Winter's fraudulent ramblings dissuades even one buyer from investing in more efficient transportation, Ward's has done a grave disservice to that buyer and to the environment.

id have to disagree. First off the idea that all money comes from hard work is crap. The rockefellers, Nobels, and many other big names who still have power and money have it because their ancestors where better at robbing and pillaging than the rest. Further, much of todays corporate money is plundered from taxpayers, or legislated into our lives by the power of greed. Many corporations put their competition out of business not by having a better product or services, but by pushing legislation that makes small businesses impractical and unable to compete, or by passing legislation that takes their competition out of legal practice, such as big pharma attacking natural and alternative medicines through the FDA. This is business as usual in washington and surely as much a crime as the wealthy elite voting to give themselves 800billion in a bailout protested by the majority of the taxpayers that money is taken from. It is a truth that a person can work hard their whole life and still die poor and miserable, and if you dont believe that your naivetee is astounding. The rich DO use their power (and money is power...the more money you have the more democracy you can buy) to stack the deck in their favor, while the poor have almost nothing to protect themselves from the powers of the elite. And now, what we have said with this bailout is that the rich need no longer risk, the public will bear the risk, the elite can just stand there and reap the profits. And this is nothing new. 70% of the fortune 500 wouldnt be here today if not for government support or bailouts, we have regularly bailed out the airlines, and the auto companies, and one article i read lately stated that as much as 50% of all corporations pay no taxes. The land of the free....depending on how much freedom you can afford to buy.

Please make sure you have installed the kernel header files for your

'kernel-source' rpm installed. If you know the correct kernel header
files are installed, you may specify the kernel include path with the
'--kernel-include-path' commandline option.
ERROR: Installation has failed. Please see the file
'/var/log/nvidia-installer.log' for details. You may find suggestions
on fixing installation problems in the README available on the Linux

Also I did specify to the installer what kernel I am using , the one that got updated through RHN.
I also booted into my old kernel & tried to update from there but i got the same errors.
I went manually to nVidia FTP & downloaded 2 files which are NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-4363.tar.gz and NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-4363.tar.gz .
The GLX file was "installed" but the kernel doesnt seem to be installing, I read it in the readme of the tar file & followed the instructions. I hope all this info was useful. I really hope to get working before I now start pulling me hair out.

"Classified as a Neighborhood Park it serves as the recreational and social focus of the neighborhood. Formally occupied by railroad tracks and a rail yard, the site's conversion to a park arose when Catholic Central High School eyed it for a playground and soccer field.

Gear Review
Great boot for the money
Great fit out of the box. I have a slightly narrow foot and enjoy some additional room in the toe box. Stand-in-water waterproof and stylish for the trail. Quality, durable double stitched seam construction. One small downside is the flimsy insole these come with- I had to upgrade to a pair of green superfeet with a more supportive heel cup and to better support my arches. No shoe or boot manufacturer provides quality inserts, so it is imprtant to consider them regardless, so I cannot dock the boot any stars as a result. For the price and with back country's bullet proof return policy I would recommend buying these Scarpa Kailash GTX boots. I'm considering buying a second pair while their sale is on.
so right about flimsy inserts and in reality something that I always upgrade before using a boot. Funny thing is Scarpa sells replacement ones same as original insoles. Who would buy those?
