The LouseBuster returns
Four years after the LouseBuster prototype made headlines when research showed the chemical-free, warm-air device wiped out head lice on children, a new study reveals that a revamped, government-cleared model is highly effective. "For a louse, it's like sticking your head out a window at 100 miles an hour; they're going to get dried out," says University of Utah biology Professor Dale Clayton, senior author of the study and a founder of Larada Sciences, a university spinoff company that sells or leases the LouseBuster to schools, camps, medical clinics and delousing businesses.
The new study of 56 louse-infested children and adults – soon to be published in the January 2011 issue of the Journal of Medical Entomology – found 94.8 percent of lice and their eggs, known as nits, were dead after treatment with the LouseBuster.
The original LouseBuster prototype proved effective in a study published in November 2006 in the journal Pediatrics. But it was noisy, wouldn't plug into home electrical outlets and got tangled in curly hair. It looked like a cumbersome canister vacuum with a hose on it, and blew warm air through a comb-like applicator.
After the first study, thousands of people with louse-infested children contacted Clayton and the University of Utah seeking the device, even though it was only a research prototype and was meant for eventual use by school nurses and other delousing professionals, not private individuals. It took three more years for the revamped LouseBuster to hit the market after gaining U.S. Food and Drug Administration clearance as a medical device. It was patented in September 2010.
"We've moved from clinical trials to having the machine available so infested people can get treated by this device. It's not a prototype anymore," says the study's first author, Sarah Bush, an assistant professor of biology at the University of Utah.
The new LouseBuster sports improvements over the prototype: less noise, the ability to plug into a standard electrical outlet and an applicator that doesn't get tangled in hair. The applicator delivers air through 28 cone-shaped tips held against the scalp.
Larada Sciences sells the LouseBuster for $2,000 to $2,500 to nonprofit organizations such as schools and medical clinics. The company also has various sale or lease arrangements with trained and certified LouseBuster operators who provide treatments in salons or clients' homes for $125 to $275 per person. Such small delousing businesses have been springing up recently as head lice have become more prevalent.
Bush and Clayton ran the study with Alex Rock, Sherri Jones and Jael Malenke, research technicians from Larada Sciences in Salt Lake City. The study was funded by the National Science Foundation, Utah Centers of Excellence program and Larada Sciences. Clayton and some other authors have a financial interest in the company.
LouseBuster: Faster, Gentler and Better Than Other Methods
The most widely used delousing products are shampoos and other chemical treatments toxic to lice. But lice are evolving resistance to insecticides, and many people find the old treatments ineffective. As a result, louse infestations are on the rise.
Even when the shampoos work, they kill only hatched lice, not nits. Infested people must shampoo again after the nits have hatched, and if they get the timing wrong – waiting until the newly-hatched lice have laid eggs of their own – treatment must begin again. Also, many parents are reluctant to use chemical treatments on their children.
Combs to remove lice and nits also are popular, but combing out the critters is tedious and can take hours, particularly in long hair. Every nit must be removed.
People also use various other products and home remedies to combat lice, but most alternative treatments are untested or ineffective.
The LouseBuster is a nonchemical treatment that is safe, easy and effective. It dries out lice and nits with precisely delivered jets of warm air during a single, 30-minute treatment. The device delivers two to three times more air than a standard blow dryer.
"It's the volume of air as much as the temperature that kills lice," says Clayton. The LouseBuster blows air at about 138 degrees Fahrenheit – cooler than common blow dryers. A 15-minute comb-out after treatment removes dead lice and nits.
"This thing is incredibly innocuous," with no ill effects reported, Clayton says.
Study Shows LouseBuster is Lousy for Lice in Any Climate or Hair
The new LouseBuster study compared the number of live and dead lice and nits before and after treatment on the 56 study participants. Lice and nits were collected from half of each patient's head at the start of the experiment. Then, the whole head was treated with the LouseBuster. Next, lice were collected from the other side of the head. The researchers checked how many lice were alive and how many of the nits would hatch.
Most of the lice and nits collected at the start of the experiment were alive. After treatment by experienced LouseBuster operators, 88.2 percent of hatched lice were dead and 99.2 percent of nits failed to hatch, for an overall mortality of 94.8 percent.
Lice not killed immediately apparently were sterilized by the LouseBuster or died later. Any eggs that might have been missed by combing or other methods did not hatch because the LouseBuster treatment killed them. That means the LouseBuster can be an important tool for schools that abandon the "no nit" policy, as was recommended recently by the American Academy of Pediatrics. If the eggs have been killed, then removing all of them is not essential.
Some patients were treated by operators who underwent a two-hour training session, but had not yet used the LouseBuster to treat anyone. Slightly fewer lice were killed by the novice operators, but the difference was not statistically significant.
Tests were conducted in Florida and Tennessee, which have humid climates, and Utah, which has a dry climate. The researchers also categorized each subject's hair as long or short, thick or thin, and curly or straight. Climate and hair type made very little difference in the LouseBuster's ability to kill lice and nits.
The LouseBuster's patent holds out the possibility that people may not be the only customers for the LouseBuster. In the future, a similar device may be developed for use on louse-infested sheep and other livestock.

One of our favourite fellow cigarette-smokers has finally returned to the web following what we hope will be the last of her episodic periods of absence therefrom. Miss Rittelmeyer has fled to Australia, that southerly kingdom of sunshine and good feeling, and from there she even includes in one of her pieces a kind remark about your humble and obedient servant. [Though I would pedantically clarify that, while I do drink port, as a Catholic (not an Anglican) I am not "high church", I do not dress like a dandy (this is being written in RL khakis and an Ireland rugby top), and while I have an appreciation for monarchy I would not really call myself a monarchist; but then I tend to disdain all -isms.]
In her post Welcome she gives a brief overview of recent events and motivations, though I am confused by her concern over bad coffee in Australia, as the most celebrated coffee-merchants in London are Antipodean. I would have put Australian television in the 'Pro' column, as I am the most committed propagandist for the cause of Australian television in the British Isles. "Home & Away" is a favourite in our riparian London flat, "Sea Patrol" is a ridiculous enjoyment, "Packed to the Rafters" worth watching, and "Round the Twist" and "Spellbinder" are childhood favourites, alongside other random productions like "The Wayne Manifesto" and "Sky Trackers". (I won't admit to having seen "H2O: Just Add Water"). If Helen is allowed her in-depth knowledge of Maldivian heavy metal, I am allowed my Australian television.
Anyhow, pop over and have a read. As one American inhabitant of the Queen's realms to another, I wish her the best of luck under the Southern Cross.

I can't seem to find any clear and definite answer.
I am also assuming my app will need root privileges to do all this. How do I implement that?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

'I didn't want her to tell': Maintenance man admits killing Jorelys Rivera, 7, because he molested her
A 20-year-old maintenance man faces life in prison for beating and killing a 7-year-old north Georgia girl, who disappeared from a playground at her apartment complex and was found in a trash bin.
Ryan Brunn pleaded guilty Tuesday to several charges including murder and child molestation in the December 2 killing of Jorelys Rivera.
He responded 'Yes, sir,' when a judge asked if he was pleading guilty to several charges. The judge accepted his plea and sentenced him to life without parole.
Murderer: Ryan Brunn admitted killing seven-year-old Jorleys Rivera before killing himself in his prison cell on Thursday
Coverup: Ryan Brunn, 20, told a judge he killed Jorelys Rivera so she wouldn't tell her parents that he had molested her
'I'd like to apologize for everything that's done. Lo Siento,' Brunn said, apologizing in Spanish as he took the stand briefly a second time.
Brunn said he chose the girl because he happened to find her roller skate and used it to lure her to a vacant apartment, where he killed her, he told the judge.
He said he first sexually assaulted her.
'I didn't want her to go home and tell her mom or dad on me. So I cut her,' he told the Cherokee County judge.
He bound her arms with plastic ties in the bathtub and then taped her face before cutting her with a razor he uses to slice carpet, he said.
When she didn't die immediately, he hit her about five times with a 'hammer-like object' and stabbed her in the chest. He stuffed her body in a garbage bag and threw it into a trash compactor, he said.
Brunn spoke softly and candidly to the judge as members of Rivera's family sat in the front row sobbing.
A mother's pain: Jocelyn Rivera wept in court as Ryan Brunn plead guilty
Guilty: Ryan Brunn, seen here after his arrest, admitted to charges of murder, child molesting and kidnapping before he hanged himself
A statement from the girl's mother, Joselinne Rivera, was read in court.
'The rest of my life I am going to feel terrible and destroyed because of the harm you did to my daughter,' Rivera said in the statement. 'I desire this man the worst possible of the world, and that they do to him the worst so he suffers.'
Brunn's defense attorney David Cannon addressed reporters after the sentencing.
'He was remorseful. A child's life was lost and he was sentenced. And that's the bottom line ladies and gentlemen. It's over,' Cannon said.
Authorities found the child's body three days after her mother reported her missing from the Canton apartment complex. After getting rid of the body,
Brunn said he returned to his apartment and then went out with friends to Walmart before returning home to smoke pot and meth.
Grief: Joselin Rivera, centre, Jorelys' mother, said she will never recover from the murder of her daughter
Two days after the killing, Brunn began 'freaking out' and wrote a note on the back of a McDonald's receipt saying the girl's body was in the trash compactor and taped it to the bin, he told the judge. When the judge asked why he did that, he responded, 'I was high.'
Police say Brunn snatched the girl as she walked from the playground to her apartment to get sodas for her friends.
Brunn was being held without bond at the Cherokee County jail. His family has said he is innocent. The charges carried the possibility of a death sentence if convicted, but prosecutors had not decided yet whether to seek it.
Brunn has no known criminal past and he cleared background checks by the company that runs the apartment complex where he had been working about a month. Authorities say Brunn had keys to the apartment and the trash compactor bin where Rivera's body was left.
'We're very glad this is over for us, and especially the family,' said Canton Police Chief Jeff Lance after the sentencing.

Senate reform still on the agenda, Tory House Leader says
CTVNews.ca Staff
Published Sunday, February 10, 2013 11:03AM EST
Last Updated Sunday, February 10, 2013 12:27PM EST
After a tumultuous week for Canada's Upper House that saw an external audit ordered for three senators and the ousting of Sen. Patrick Brazeau from the Conservative caucus, the government will continue to push for Senate reform, says House Leader and Tory MP Peter Van Loan.
Van Loan told CTV's Question Period on Sunday that the Conservatives are still hoping to modernize the Senate -- including the possibility of elected representatives -- after two incidents this week put the spotlight on members of the Red Chamber.
"Our preferred option, of course, is to reform the Senate, to make it work well," he said Sunday. "There are good people there now; we think it could be even better if it is elected. It could become an important part of the democratic element of our country."
Van Loan's comments come after a tough week for the Senate.
An outside audit of the housing expenses of Senators Patrick Brazeau, Mike Duffy and Mac Harb has been ordered after questions arose about their "primary" residency claims.
Accounting firm Deloitte will review the senators' claims about where they primarily live and the housing allowances they've collected for accommodations closer to Ottawa.
Senators can claim $21,000 annually in housing and meal expenses if their primary address is more than 100 kilometres from Ottawa.
Also earlier this week, Brazeau, 38, was kicked out of the Conservative caucus and charged in connection with an alleged domestic violence incident. Brazeau was appointed to the Senate in 2008, when he was 34 years old.
Van Loan said the Conservatives have made it clear that they would prefer to appoint senators that have been elected by the provinces. In the past, they have also proposed a nine-year term limit for senators.
Currently senators are appointed by the prime minister and can serve up to the age of 75.
Van Loan said the appointment process for senators is not unlike the appointment process for a number of positions for government boards, commissions and agencies.
"In the case of the Senate, you want them to actually represent communities within the country, or part of the country, and have some demonstrated record of accomplishment," he said.
During the vetting process, a series of background checks are run on each candidate, Van Loan said. In Brazeau's case, at the time of his appointment, he was the national chief of the Congress of Aboriginal People – a group representing the interest of Canadian aboriginals who live off-reserve.
"He was well-known in that role," Van Loan said.
Since the outside audit was ordered, Van Loan said the Senate is taking steps to ensure that taxpayers' money is not abused and Senate policies regarding benefits like housing allowances are being reviewed.
He added that a motion will be brought forth by the government on Tuesday to take advantage of rules that would suspend Brazeau's ability to access Senate funds.
"That's something that can be done once he's been charged with a serious offence," he said. "So that will be done to protect the taxpayers."
Meanwhile, the government is seeking clarification from the Supreme Court on how it could proceed with potential Senate reforms. Ottawa sent questions to the Supreme Court last week, seeking answers on the reform legislation's constitutionality, Van Loan said.
In 2008, the Conservative platform included potentially abolishing the institution, a move that would require constitutional change.
And while abolition is still talked about, Van Loan said that the hurdle required to clear that step – getting the consent of all the provinces – has always seen as a "very high hurdle to clear."
"What we will now know is: what exactly is the test," he said. "What do we need to amend the constitution in that fashion? The court will be able to tell us. I think that will be helpful to the overall debate on how we make the Senate work better and how we go about fixing it."
Opposition MPs, meanwhile, held mixed views on the effectiveness of the Deloitte housing audit.
"I'm not confident that we're going to get the results that we need," NDP MP Megan Leslie said, adding that she doubts the Prime Minister and the government will take action if wrongdoing has been found. "I am not confident that they're going to act on this."
Leslie added that the NDP believes the Senate should be abolished, calling it an institution from "the dark ages."
The biggest problem with the Senate is not the behaviour of its members, said Leslie, but rather its ability to kill bills that have been passed in the House of Commons.
"We do not need an unaccountable, unelected Senate," she said.
Liberal MP Ralph Goodale said that in order to be effective, the results of the audit must be made publicly available and not go through any "sanitizing process."
"It is important for the Senate to be extremely proactive on this. The credibility of the institution is at stake here," he said.

What to Consider If You're Considering University
New Rules for Education and EmploymentA degree is no longer a passport to success in today's job market. Going to university used to be a passport to future success, but that's no longer the case. For some students, it's still a good choice that leads to a successful career after graduation, but for many their degrees are worthless pieces of paper. Choose the wrong program and graduation is more likely to lead to disillusionment and
An Introduction to Christian WorldviewHow can Christians live faithfully at the crossroads of the story of Scripture and postmodern culture?

Theology: A Very Short IntroductionThis Very Short Introduction provides both the believer and non-believer with a balanced survey of the central questions of theology. David Ford's approach draws us in to considering the principles underlying religious belief, including the centrality of salvation to most major religions, the concept of God in ancient, modern, and postmodern contexts, the challenge posed to theology by prayer and

You don't and shouldn't care about the plight of Holocaust refugees and how their struggle as it relates to the creation of the state of Israel? Then don't be shocked when others don't care about Nakba refugees. The point is that you should care. A return to 1948 is a myth. It will never happen. When we are long dead and gone Israel will still exist and a Palestinian "right" of return will not. What we need to focus on is today, and what is best for the two peoples. Jews need to give up their desire for a fully-Jewish Jerusalem and need to deal with illegal settlements, and Palestinians need to drop the rhetoric on "right of return." Palestinians should have the right to return to the Palestinian state when it is created, not to their specific pre-nakba homes. Don't forget who invaded whom in 1948.

The next Borderlands sequel is coming! Only it's not quite a sequel. Earlier this morning, Gearbox Software announced Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, a new chapter in the series that will take place between the first two games. Here's the company's pitch:
Set between Borderlands and Borderlands 2, you'll play as four all-new character classes fighting alongside Handsome Jack, witnessing his transformation into the ruthless tyrant you loved to hate in Borderlands 2, and assisting with the rise of the Hyperion Corporation. The signature shoot 'n' loot gameplay of the Borderlands series expands with the addition of low-gravity and oxygen-powered jetpack combat, the icy 'Cryo' elemental damage type, the deadly laser weapon class, and new vehicles to help you explore the diverse lunar landscape.
There's a screenshot, too, which shows... well, some sort of floating ice monster type thing. Or something along those lines:
Gearbox says Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel will come out "later this fall." Interestingly, the company isn't handling development alone; the game is being co-developed with 2K Australia. Also, Gearbox says the pre-sequel will be available "on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC." There's no mention of next-gen consoles. Unless some clever subterfuge is going on here, I'm guessing the game probably won't wow us with next-gen graphics.
This discussion is now closed.

10/8/2012 (3 years ago)
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
There was a great hue and cry at the corner gas station throughout the Golden State as gas prices hit a new record this past weekend -- an all-time average high of $4.6140 per gallon. The news gets even direr as prices are only expected to climb in the next couple days, according to the Automobile Club of Southern California.
Coupled with a refinery power outage and a pipeline incident last week, gasoline wholesale markets into a free fall about the adequacy of California fuel supplies.

Published in Business & Economics
Keywords: California, gas prices, supply and demand, refineries
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Gas prices have gone up a whopping 47 cents in the past week in the state. Blame is being placed upon a refinery shortage and a recent power outage at a plant in Torrance.
Things have gotten so bad in California, prices have leapfrogged over Hawaii's. The national average for a gallon of remains$3.81 per gallon.
"This is ridiculous," Edgar Marutyan, one exasperated taxi driver exclaims. "I don't know how long we can go like this."
"Five dollar gas prices -- now six -- are very unreasonable," another commuter said.
The average price of a gallon of self-serve regular gasoline in Los Angeles County recorded its largest single-day increase last Friday. Gas skyrocketed up 19.2 cents to $4.539, its highest amount since July 12, 2008.
That's a startling 40.3 cents more than a week ago, 36.4 cents higher than a month ago and 71.5 cents greater than at this time last year, according to figures from the AAA and Oil Price Information Service.
The record price in LA County is $4.626, set on June 21, 2008, a record set by a fraction of a penny, according to AAA spokesman Michael Green. The previous high was $4.6096 on June 19, 2008.
In Orange County, the average price also recorded its largest single-day increase Friday, rising 19.5 cents to $4.525, its highest amount since July 9, 2008. That's 41.4 cents more than one week ago, 37 cents higher than one month ago and 73.8 cents greater than one year ago.
The record price in Orange County is $4.598, set on June 19, 2008.
Jeffrey Spring of the Automobile Club of Southern California said that local refineries were dropping production levels, exporting supply to Mexico and other countries, and allowing inventory to dwindle in anticipation of switching over to production of winter blend gasoline.
Coupled with a refinery power outage and a pipeline incident last week, gasoline wholesale markets into a free fall about the adequacy of California fuel supplies.
It's not clear how much higher prices will go, he said.
"A lot depends on whether the perceived supply issues are quickly addressed," Spring said.

Strictly speaking, Russell Grant is half the man he used to be after losing 11 stone
- Russell Grant weighed 27 stone and had a 62in waist at his heaviest
- His weight loss regime given a boost when he danced with Flavia Cacace
- The pair have released a new dancing fitness DVD
Russell Grant and Flavia Cacace squeeze into his old 62in trousers
Once Russell Grant struggled to get into these 60-inch waist trousers. Now, after losing a remarkable 11 stone, he finds them so roomy he can even invite a friend over.
And snuggling up beside him, with a whole trouser leg to herself, is Flavia Cacace, his partner on Strictly Come Dancing.
Now weighing in at around 15-and-a-half stone, with a 42in waist, Grant's steady weight loss over four years got a big boost thanks to his stint on the BBC show two years ago.
And just to make sure he doesn't have a wobble, he and Flavia have joined forces to create Zalza, a dancing fitness DVD which is available on the QVC shopping channel.
At his heaviest, the 62-year-old astrologer weighed almost 27 stone as he mourned the loss of his beloved grandmothers.
His weight resulted in a host of health problems as his morbidly obese body began to breakdown.
Grant had prostate problems, skin cancer, Type 2 diabetes and two heart scares. He had to use a stick and was given a disabled pass. He still carries a red spray with him to help him ward off angina.
But in 2009 he decided to change his ways, eat sensibly and start walking.
He said: 'So it was a combination of a wake-up
call and a transformation. But it was a case of Astrologer, heal
thyself. Because, if you can't do it, no one can do it for you.
'Then I asked myself a single question: "Russell, what are you lacking in your life?" Within a split second I knew. I needed to go back to my roots. To theatre. To music and show business. The last big show I'd done was Ivor Novello's The King's Rhapsody in the 1970s.'
At his heaviest, Grant weighed 27 stone but his steady weight loss was given a boost when he partnered Cacace on Strictly Come Dancing in 2011
While setting about finding work, he also started walking. He and his manager and partner of 40 years, Doug Beaumont, live in Snowdonia.
'It was just a little at a time to begin with but I built it up each day,' he said.
'And then Strictly came along and introduced me to a whole new way of life.'
In the 2011 series, Flavia and Grant survived 10 weeks that
included Grant being fired out of a cannon on a tea tray, finally bowing
out in the week the show was broadcast from Wembley.
In a poll at the time, Grant and Flavia were voted viewers' favourite Strictly couple of all time.
Since then, he's appeared as the eponymous Wizard of Oz at the Palladium, a part he initially turned down. 'How could I step into the shoes of Michael Crawford, a hero of mine?'
Grant and Cacace survived 10 weeks on the show and were voted the viewers' favourite couple ever
But its choreographer, Arlene Phillips, and Andrew Lloyd Webber
himself persuaded him to change his mind.
He's soon to be seen at the King's Head in Islington playing AA Milne's father, John, in Gyles Brandreth's Now We Are Sixty with music by Julian Slade. At the end of the year, he'll be the presenter for the theatre tour of Ready Steady Cook Live!
'What Russell's achieved is really impressive,' Miss Cacace said. 'He got back his self-esteem and he did it through his own efforts. That's so inspiring.
'I was able to tell very early on that
this was going to be a longstanding relationship. We're best buddies.
It's like we've known each other for centuries.
'Even when we're not working together, we're texting each other all the time. I've got a lifelong friend I can really count on.'

Hi everyone- I know I haven't been to a karaoke event yet (not by choice), but I know they have karaoke on Sundays at the Monkey's Tale in Broad Ripple. It is $3 cover and I believe it's called Karaoke Idol or something. It starts at 10 and is a lot of fun. I have been a few times.

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - An Iraqi army helicopter carrying aid and evacuating displaced members of the Yazidi minority in northern Iraq crashed on Tuesday, in an accident that killed the pilot and wounded passengers, a government spokesman said.
A Yazidi member of parliament, Vian Dakheel, was among those injured, the prime minister's military spokesman, Qassim Atta, told a televised news conference.
During a parliament session this month, Dakheel broke into tears describing the plight of her fellow Yazidis, who have fled hardline Sunni militants of the Islamic State during their onslaught in northern Iraq.
The New York Times reported that one of its reporters, Alissa Rubin, was also injured in the crash, suffering "an apparent concussion and broken wrists".
Aircraft have been dropping food and other supplies to Yazidis who have taken refuge in remote mountains. The United Nations said on Tuesday that 20,000 to 30,000 Yazidis may still be sheltering on the arid Mount Sinjar.

Suspect charged with murder in SC campus shooting
ORANGEBURG, S.C. - South Carolina State University says the engineering technology student shot to death on campus also played on the school's football team.
The university in Orangeburg said Saturday that 20-year-old Brandon Robinson was a defensive specialist who appeared in four games. He was shot to death Friday outside a student dormitory.
The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division says Robinson was shot after arguing with 19-year-old Justin Bernard Singleton of Charleston. Singleton was charged with murder and arrested early Saturday at an Orangeburg apartment complex.
An arrest warrant filed by a SLED investigator says Robinson was killed after being shot in the neck.
South Carolina State University is a historically black university with about 3,200 students in Orangeburg, about 40 miles south of Columbia.

Will kumquat trees grow in St. George, Utah?
Rate This FAQ
Kumquat trees are the most cold tolerant of all of the citrus. In St. George we will dip into the low to mid 20s during January. Kumquats should survive in town OK but probably not in the outlying areas which typically get into the teens.
The few people I have seen grow oranges and lemons here have them well protected in the winter, such as an enclosed porch.
