1. Field of the Invention
The present invention is related to a method and apparatus for preventing accidental pricks from needles of hypodermic syringes and for supporting hypodermic syringes.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Most hypodermic syringes now in use by medical personnel in hospitals and physician's offices are of a disposable type. Such syringes are typically manufactured entirely of plastic, except for the needle and in some cases the needle base. Such a hypodermic syringe includes a cylindrical barrel which narrows to a luer lock fitting at one end and has an opposite open end from which a pair of finger support flanges extend laterally outwardly in diametrical opposition to each other. A plastic plunger having a piston on its tip is inserted into the open end of the syringe barrel. A conventional hypodermic syringe also includes a metal needle element having an elongated, hollow needle with a somewhat larger cylindrical annular needle base with a radially outwardly directed lip at its open end. The lip of the needle base is coupled to the luer lock fitting of the barrel with a twisting or screwing action.
A conventional hypodermic syringe also includes a needle guard or cap in the form of a hollow, elongated plastic structure. The needle cap receives the syringe needle through an open, accessible end that fits snugly over the needle base in frictional engagement therewith. The opposite end of the needle cap is a closed or blind end.
To use a hypodermic syringe, the needle cap is removed and the distal tip of the needle is inserted into a liquid to be injected. The plunger is then retracted from the barrel, thus drawing liquid into the barrel, through the needle by means of suction. Filling of the syringe can either be performed locally in a hospital or in a physician's office. Often, however, the syringe barrel arrives at the medical facility pre-loaded with a liquid therein.
In either event, when the liquid is to be injected into a patient the distal tip of the needle is pressed into the skin of the patient and the plunger is depressed using the thumb of one hand with two fingers of the same hand bearing against the undersides of the laterally projecting finger support flanges. Once the liquid has been injected, the needle is withdrawn from the skin of the patient. If the entire contents of the syringe have been injected into the patient, the syringe must be discarded. Alternatively, in some cases several applications of a liquid in the syringe must be applied to different areas of the skin of the patient during the course of a surgery. In either event, the sharp needle, once having penetrated and then been withdrawn from the skin of the patent, represents a considerable hazard. Therefore, the needle is normally capped or sheathed.
The cap for a needle of a conventional medical syringe is an elongated, hollow sheath, closed at one end and having an open mouth at the opposite end. To replace the cap on the needle the physician or nurse must grasp the cap in one hand and the hypodermic syringe in the other and move the needle into the open mouth of the cap until the mouth is secured by friction about the base of the needle. However, the physician or nurse will occasionally misjudge the alignment between the needle and the cap and accidentally stick the fingers or thumb of the hand grasping the barrel-shaped cap with the needle. This can occur when the needle either passes longitudinally alongside the cap to prick the finger of the physician or nurse, or by an even smaller misalignment in which the needle enters the interior wall of the cap at an angle and is deflected laterally outwardly therethrough. In the latter instance the needle can pass outwardly entirely through the wall structure of the cap and prick the hand of the physician or nurse holding the cap.
Not only are needle pricks painful and distracting to the physician or nurse performing the surgery, but they can be extremely dangerous. A physician or nurse can contract hepatitis due to an accidental needle prick in capping a hypodermic syringe which has been withdrawn from the skin of a patient already infected with hepatitis. Likewise, other viral diseases can similarly be transmitted accidentally. The concern with respect to accidental needle pricks in the medical profession is now particularly acute due to the spreading prevalence of the deadly AIDS virus.
Several different approaches have been employed to attempt to eliminate the danger of accidental needle pricks following use of a hypodermic syringe. One approach is to construct the hypodermic syringe with a sleeve reciprocally mounted relative to the barrel of the syringe. After using the syringe the sleeve is pulled longitudinally along the barrel and over the needle until it provides a cylindrical annular guard disposed about the needle. Some typical reciprocal sliding needle sheaths or sleeves are disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,747,837; 4,840,619; 4,968,304; and 4,723,943. However, the provision of a sliding sheath and the interlocking mechanisms associated therewith adds considerably to the complexity and expense of fabrication of the disposable hypodermic syringe product. Also, such systems require the physician or nurse utilizing the syringe to employ both hands in order to slide the sheath over the needle.
Another approach which has been employed to reduce the likelihood of needle pricks is to employ a large device that grips the needle cap while protecting the hand of the user. One such device is depicted in U.S. Pat. No. 4,955,865. This device is a hand held needle cad holder of rather intricate and expensive construction. This needle unsheathing and re-sheathing and handling apparatus is quite expensive, compared to the cost of disposable hypodermic syringes, and requires two hands for operation. A variation of this system is sold as a recapper stand by On-Guard Systems, Inc. located in Denver, Colo. This stand is provided with a base that rests upon a flat horizontal surface and has essentially the same operating mechanism as that described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,955,865. However, although this stand allows a needle to be recapped using one hand, it is quite expensive when considered in relation to the minimal expense of a conventional hypodermic syringe.
The present invention provides a simple, economical, but extremely effective system for recapping the needle of a hypodermic syringe without exposing the user to the risk of needle pricks. Also, the system of the present invention allows the user to recap a needle using only one hand. In addition the invention provides a convenient stand or pedestal which can hold a needle in an upright disposition.
In one broad aspect the present invention may be considered to be a cap holder for a hypodermic syringe comprising a tubular sleeve having an open, accessible end with an internal cross section that snugly receives a cap for the needle of a hypodermic syringe therewithin, and an opposite end, and a suction cup located at the opposite end of the sleeve and directed away from the open end thereof.
Utilizing the cap holder of the invention, the suction cup can be pressed against any smooth surface, such as a desk, counter, medicine tray, and even curved surfaces, such as bed frames. The suction cup will adhere to all such smooth surfaces and holds the sleeve projecting outwardly from the surface to which the suction cup is attached. The user then inserts the needle cap into the open end of the sleeve of the cap holder, and releases the cap holder. The cap holder is held in an upright disposition by the sleeve, which in turn is held in a stationary location by means of the suction cup. Using only one hand, the hypodermic syringe can then be directed toward the cap and the needle is inserted into the cap until the cap frictionally engages the base of the needle in a conventional manner. The needle is thereupon safely capped and the entire syringe, cap and needle can be discarded or stored for further use, as appropriate. The suction cup can be released from the surface to which it is attached by breaking the suction in a conventional manner.
The hypodermic syringe cap holder of the invention also serves the purpose of providing a convenient, clean device for holding a hypodermic syringe. In conventional practice medical personnel typically carry a capped hypodermic syringe on a tray. When an injection is to be given the cap is withdrawn from the needle. Sometimes, however, the physician or nurse administering the injection discovers that some preliminary step must be taken before actually administering the injection and after the needle cap has been withdrawn. For example, a patient must sometimes be repositioned, or some obstacle must be moved out of the way. In conventional practice the only alternative is to recap the needle, with the attendant danger of a needle prick, or lay the needle back on the tray, where it is subject to contamination.
By employing the cap holder of the invention the person administering the injection is provided with a convenient arrangement for holding the needle in an upright disposition and without danger of contamination. That is, if the hypodermic syringe is prematurely withdrawn from the needle cap, the needle cap is merely pressed into the open end of the cap holder, the suction cup of the cap holder is pressed against the tray or some other smooth surface, and, using only one hand, the needle of the syringe is inserted, back into the needle cap until seated. The cap holder thereby supports the hypodermic syringe, ready for use, in an upright disposition and a clean and sterile manner, and without the possibility of inadvertent needle pricks.
Preferably, the cap holder of the invention is provided with a syringe retainer releasably attachable to the hypodermic syringe. This retainer may take the form of an elastic loop or band secured to the cap holder at the transition between the suction cup and the sleeve. The loop may be formed of an ordinary rubber band, or by a plastic loop which is sufficiently resilient to pass over and capture at least one of the laterally projecting finger support flanges at the remote extremity of the barrel. By employing such an elastic loop the hypodermic syringe may be effectively lashed down so that the needle remains covered by the needle cap and the needle cap remains in position in the sleeve of the cap holder.
The cap holder of the invention is extremely economical to manufacture and may be disposed of along with the disposable hypodermic syringe without inordinately increasing the cost of the product. The cap holder may be fabricated of any conventional plastic material that has some resiliency. Alternatively, it can be manufactured of rubber.
In another broad aspect the invention may be considered to be a combination of a hypodermic syringe having a barrel with a needle projecting therefrom, a cap for the needle having an open end securable relative to the barrel to receive the needle therewithin and an opposite blind end, and a cap holder formed with a sleeve having an open mouth at one end to receive the blind end of the cap in frictional engagement therewith and having a suction cup at an opposite end. The suction cup is engageable by suction with a flat surface to support the cap holder to receive the cap with the needle of the hypodermic syringe therewithin.
In still another broad aspect the invention may be considered to be a method of capping a hypodermic syringe formed with a barrel having a needle projecting therefrom and a cap for the needle formed with an open end and an opposite closed end. The method of the invention is comprised of the steps of: securing to a smooth supporting surface a cap holder having a sleeve formed with an open mouth at one end and a suction cup at its opposite end by pressing the suction cup against the smooth supporting surface, inserting the closed end of the cap into the mouth of the cap holder, and inserting the needle of the hypodermic syringe into the open end of the cap holder. As previously noted, the sleeve preferably has a retainer secured thereto. In that case the method includes the further step of releasably securing the retainer to the hypodermic syringe.
The invention may be described with greater clarity and particularity by reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIGS. 1 through 5 illustrate one preferred embodiment of a combination according to the invention including a hypodermic syringe indicated generally at 10, a cap 12 for the hypodermic syringe 10, and a cap holder 14 according to the invention.
The hypodermic syringe 10 is a conventional plastic, disposable syringe having a cylindrical annular barrel 16. The top of the syringe barrel 16 is open and a pair of laterally projecting finger support flanges 18 and 20 extend radially outwardly therefrom. At its opposite end the barrel narrows to a collar 22 which is internally threaded to form a luer lock fitting. A needle structure including an elongated, narrow hollow metal needle 24 and a plastic needle base 26 is secured to the barrel collar 22 by a luer lock fitting in a conventional manner. The hypodermic syringe 10 also has a plunger 28 which works reciprocally within the barrel 16 to expel a liquid to be injected from the tip of the needle 24.
The needle cap 12 is also a conventional structure and is formed as an elongated, annular housing or casing of a generally frustoconical configuration. The upper end of the cap 12 is open and has a short, radial lip 30 projecting outwardly therefrom. The opposite blind end 32 of the needle cap 12 is rounded and closed.
The cap holder 14 is illustrated in greatest detail in FIG. 3. The cap holder 14 is fabricated of a soft, resilient plastic and comprises a generally conical suction cup 34 disposed concave downwardly toward a smooth surface 36. The suction cup 34 is releasably secured to the surface 36 in a conventional manner by the application of downward pressure which forces air out from beneath the peripheral edge of the suction cup 34, thus flattening the suction cup 34 as illustrated in FIGS. 1-3. Due to the resiliency of the cap holder 14, the suction cup 34 tends to return to its un-deformed condition, thereby creating a suctional force against the surface 36.
The cap holder 14 is also formed with a cylindrical, annular resilient plastic sleeve 38. The plastic sleeve 38 has an internal diameter of approximately three eighths of an inch, so as to snugly receive the lowermost end 32 of those needle caps 12 that are most widely employed for use with medical hypodermic syringes 10. At its upper extremity the sleeve 38 has an open mouth 40 that receives the blind end 32 of the needle cap 12 in frictional engagement therewithin. The upper end of the suction cup 34 terminates in a short, upwardly projecting stud or stump 42 having a downwardly directed, transversely extending narrow slot 44 defined therewithin. The slot 44 extends across the diameter of the stud 42 and is deep enough to receive and laterally constrain a rubber band 46 therewithin. The rubber band 46 is a conventional rubber band formed as an endless loop and capable of resiliently stretching a considerable distance.
As illustrated in FIGS. 1-5, one section of the rubber band 46 is inserted downwardly into the slot 44 defined in the upwardly projecting stud 42. The sleeve 38 is then pressed downwardly so that the interior wall of its lower extremity is secured by frictional engagement about the outer surface of the upwardly projecting stud 42. Both the sleeve 38 and the stud 42 are formed of resilient, plastic structures and are configured so that the sleeve 38 fits snugly over the top of the stud 42. The lower end of the sleeve 38 is thereupon engaged by the force of friction with the outer surface of the stud 42, while the rubber band 46 lies within the groove 44 and passes beneath the sleeve 38 on opposite sides thereof. The lower end 41 of the sleeve 38 is pressed downwardly against the rubber band 46 to thereby immobilize it and secure the rubber band 46 relative to the sleeve 38.
The operation of the invention may best be described with reference to FIGS. 1-3. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the suction cup 34 of the cap holder 14 is first pressed downwardly against the smooth surface 36 so that the suction cup 34 adheres thereto by means of suction. The blind end 32 of the needle cap 12 is then pushed downwardly into the open mouth 40 of the sleeve 38 of the cap holder 14. The sleeve 38 is sufficiently resilient to distend slightly radially outwardly, so that its inner surface at the mouth 40 frictionally engages the lower extremity of the needle cap 12. The cap 12 and cap holder 14 are thereupon ready to receive the hypodermic syringe 10.
After the hypodermic syringe 10 has been used to give a patient an injection, the syringe 10 is directed downwardly with the needle 24 axially aligned with the upper, open end of the needle cap 12. The syringe 10 is then moved-downwardly toward the cap 12 and cap holder 14 so that the needle 24 enters into the central opening in the upper end of the needle cap 12.
It should be noted that the step of insertion of the hypodermic syringe 10 is normally performed with a single hand. Should the needle 24 be misaligned relative to the needle cap 12, it is possible that the needle 24 will penetrate the upright annular wall of the needle cap 12. However, even if this occurs the user is not exposed to any danger of a needle prick. To the contrary, the users hands are not required to hold the needle cap 12 upright, since the suction cup 34 of the cap holder 14 performs this function.
Once the hypodermic syringe 10 has been fully inserted into the cap 12, the interior surface of the upper walls of the cap 12 distends slightly and frictionally engages the base 26 of the needle structure. Since the interior walls of the upper extremity of the sleeve 38 likewise fractionally grip the outer surface of the blind end 32 of the needle cap 12, the suction of the suction cup 34 can be broken in a conventional manner, and the entire hypodermic assembly lifted from the surface 36 and discarded, or even stored for further use or analysis, as appropriate.
Preferably, the elastic loop 46 is employed so as to firmly hold the needle cap 12 in position to cover the needle 24. Once the needle of the hypodermic syringe 10 has been inserted into the cap 12, as depicted in phantom in FIG. 3, the user elastically stretches the rubber band 46 and pulls the portion thereof located remote from the stud 42 upwardly and over the top of the plunger 28. The user then releases the rubber band, which due to its resiliency, retracts downwardly, but is restrained from full retraction by the laterally projecting finger supports 18 and 20, as depicted in FIG. 2. Thus, the elastic band 46 forms a further safeguard that holds the needle cap 12 in position covering the needle 24.
It may well be desireable for the cap holder 14 to be manufactured in a distinctive color, such as red. This provides a warning to anyone who encounters the combined assembly of the hypodermic syringe 10, the cap 12, and the cap holder 14 that the syringe 10 has been used and may be contaminated.
Numerous different modifications of the system of the invention are possible. For example, while the cap holder 14 of the embodiment of FIGS. 1-4 is formed of component parts, namely a tubular annular structure which fits onto an upwardly projecting stud of the suction cup 34, the sleeve and suction cup can be formed as a unitary structure. One embodiment of such a unitary cap holder 114 is illustrated in FIG. 7. In that embodiment the resilient sleeve 138 and the suction cup 134 are formed together as a single molded unit, with the sleeve 138 constituting a hollow, upwardly projecting structure atop the suction cup 134. The needle cap 12 fits into the open, upwardly facing mouth of the sleeve 138 in the same manner and by means of the same frictional engagement as with the embodiment of FIGS. 1-5.
Since the sleeve 138 and suction cup 134 of the cap holder 114 of FIG. 7 are formed as a unitary embodiment, a different arrangement must be employed if a rubber band 46 is to be utilized therewith as a restraining device. To this end a transverse opening 50 is defined through the molded structure forming the suction cup 134 and sleeve 138 at the transition therebetween, and a narrow, transverse slot 52 is defined in that structure at the same location. The slot 52 extends perpendicularly outwardly relative to the alignment of the opening 50. The rubber band 46 can then be pressed into the transverse slot 52 so that it resides within the opening 50 and is thereby coupled to the sleeve 138 and suction cup 134. The rubber band 46 can thereupon be employed to restrain the hypodermic syringe 10 in the same manner as depicted in FIG. 2.
FIG. 6 illustrates still another embodiment of the invention. In the embodiment of FIG. 6 the cap holder 214 is formed as a completely unitary structure that includes not only the suction cup 234 and sleeve 238, but also an elastic loop 246 projecting upwardly from the upper end of the sleeve 238 at diametrically opposite sides of the open, accessible end of the sleeve 238. The plastic loop 246 is thin enough so that it can be stretched to the extent necessary to engage at least one of the laterally projecting finger support flanges 18 and 20 of the hypodermic syringe 10. Elastic deformation of the loop 246 is performed by pulling on an enlarged, flat pull-tab 54 located at the center of the loop 246. The steps of the method of the invention employing the cap holder 214 are performed in precisely the same manner as described in conjunction with the embodiments of FIGS. 1-5. As in the other embodiment, the retainer formed by the elastic loop is releasably attachable to the hypodermic syringe 10 to hold the hypodermic syringe 10 snugly seated in the needle cap 12 and the needle cap 12 snugly seated in the cap holder.
FIG. 8 of the drawings illustrates still another embodiment of the invention. Like the cap holder 214, the cap holder 314 is formed as a unitary structure and has a suction cup 334 at its base and a cylindrical, annular sleeve 338 projecting upwardly therefrom. However, at the top of the open end of the sleeve 338 a narrow portion of the wall thereof projects upwardly as an elongated strip 56. The strip 56 extends upwardly a sufficient distance so that it reaches beyond the length of the cap 12 to the level of the barrel 16 of the hypodermic syringe 10.
At its upper extremity the strip 56 has an area 58 of pressure sensitive adhesive thereon. When distributed for use the cap holder 314 has a strip of release paper 60 covering the area of the pressure sensitive adhesive 58. However, when the hypodermic syringe 10 is to be restrained within the cap holder 314, the strip of release paper 60 is removed and discarded. The pressure sensitive adhesive 58 is then pressed against the wall of the barrel 16 and adheres thereto. The hypodermic syringe 10 is thereupon restrained from removal from the cap 24, not only by the frictional force of engagement therewith, but also by virtue of the restraint provided by the retaining strip 56.
Undoubtedly, numerous variations and modifications of the invention will become readily apparent to those familiar with the fabrication and use of hypodermic syringes. For example, if the suction cup and the sleeve are formed as a unitary structure, the sleeve might not be stiff enough to hold the needle cap holder 12 stable. However the sleeve of the cap holder of the invention may be equipped with a tubular internal, stiffening liner of a more rigid plastic or metal to steady the sleeve of the needle holder. Accordingly, the scope of the invention should not be construed as limited to this specific embodiments and manner of implementation depicted and described herein.

FEDERAL WAY, Wash. (CBSNewYork/AP) — Sometimes you have to put your money where your mouth is.
The co-owner of Jet Chevrolet in Federal Way is contacting the insurance company that backed his bet on a Seahawks shutout.
The dealership sponsored a raffle with a dozen $35,000 winners if Seattle shut out New York in Sunday's game.
Jim Johnson told The News Tribune he didn't expect the 23-0 victory over the Giants but he's glad it happened.
Now he's making the drawing happen. About 20 people who bought cars during the promotion were given 100 entries. Another 12 walk-ins also were allowed to enter.
The dealership expects to give $420,000 to the raffle winners, thanks to the Seahawks' stingy defense.

These elephants have more sophisticated taste in music than you
Eleanor Bartsch was warming up for a violin performance with the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra when she decided to go outside and play. In most circumstances, she might run into random strangers, but since she was at the Circus World Museum in Baraboo, she already had a built-in audience of two: Kelly and Viola, two elephants in their 40s who've spent most of their lives together.
It's unclear if Kelly and Viola would enjoy any piece of music put in front of them or it's something about Bach that makes them want to sway, but either way they seem to be enjoying the free concert.
Bring on the classics!

It's not like this was a surprise for anyone at Novell. They have been aware
that this was coming as soon as the buy-out was announced. Also, Novell
employees have been conditioned to accept layoffs. It has been a way of life
there since the WordPerfect merger.
I worked for Novell for 17 years. Aside from constantly worrying about the longevity of your job, Novell treated it's employees pretty well. I have no complaints. I went through a layoff there when my whole group was RIFed. At first it was very harrowing. When you work for a large company like Novell, you start to think they are the only show in town. I was laid off on a Friday, started work with a new company on Monday, and pocketed 6 months of severance pay. A year later, I was hired back, for $15k more than when I left, worked another 7 years for them, then left for a much better opportunity. Much nicer to walk out the door by your own choosing.
Bottom Line: Lots of great opportunities out there. Novell isn't the only show in town.

Novell should have never ....
1. built the high rise building. Too expensive and not needed. At the time they built it they had other buildings unoccupied.
2. appointed CEO's from outside of Utah. Most of these characters only came to collect some big cash and move on.
3. bought the galaxy of companies over the years most of which never panned out and only de-railed the company.
Novell should have.....
1. Stayed with local people for the CEO on down .... much like Micron.
2. Never overhired during good times and then forcing layoffs during lean times. This practice could of and should of been avoided.
3. Not over built the Provo campus.

To 10cc and Seer - the problem is that many employers do age discriminate -
refuse to hire people over the age of 30 because they have the outside
commitments - children who get sick, church jobs and a life outside of work.
I am an empty nester and I can't get a job - because I am over 30. I have bills such as rent, student loans, credit cards, medical bills to pay. Look around the employment offices and you will find that most of them looking for work are the over 30. We happen to be the best workers because we need the money more unlike a 20 something who after 3 months is whining "I'm not coming in today and I might quit because I don't understand what is expected of me." Heard this one on the bus from a young lady.
The age discrimination in Employment act was passed in 1967 making it illegal to refuse to hire anyone over the age of 40. Oh and I do have a friend that worked for Novell

I suspect the open source movement had more effect on Novell's core competencies than anything Microsoft ever did. The leadership at Novell completely underestimated the spread of the internet, they tried to keep it proprietary, when everything became free--and they didn't innovate like Google/Amazon/Facebook, none of which base their companies on things like Microsoft (and yet they make Microsoft nervous).

I am not sure Novell did anything more wrong then many of the other early
companies did. The list of extinct companies is long and deep - Tandem, Sun,
DEV, Compaq, WordStar, WordPerfect, Lotus, Ashton-Tate, Peoplesoft, Lawson,
BusinesObjects, Next, 3Com, Nortel, EDS.... the list goes on for ever. It is
just part of the natural evolution.
Why did Novell fail when RedHat thrived? I don't think it was any one, two or even three things. In fact, Novell lived longer than many of them. So some credit has to be given to the management and staff who kept things alive much longer.
If you want to see a disaster in Utah Valley management, look at the old SCO group. They managed to drive every last cent of value out of that company - which at one time was a thriving enterprise.
No, at least someone wanted what was left of Novell... there was still value there. The same can't be said for all the lost names of high tech.

Windows 8 surpassed 200 million license sales, says Microsoft
Microsoft's Windows 8 software has surpassed 200 million licenses sold, it's been confirmed to Pocket-lint.
Speaking at a Goldman Sachs technology conference today, Microsoft's Tami Reller casually revealed sales numbers for Windows 8 licenses. The last time Microsoft announced sales was in May 2013, when the company had sold more than 100 million licenses.
A spokesperson for the company elaborated on license sales to Pocket-lint with the following statement: "Windows 8 has surpassed 200 million licenses sold, and we continue to see momentum. This number includes Windows licenses that ship on a new tablet or PC, as well as upgrades to Windows 8. The figure does not include volume license sales to enterprise."
READ: Windows 8 review
Windows 8 is a part of the Windows NT family of operating systems. It released to manufacturing on in 2012, but it didn't become available to the general public until October 2012. It's worth noting that Windows 7, the predecessor to Windows 8, hit 240 million licenses sold after one year. Windows 8 is therefore growing at a slower rate.
Reller attributed the slow growth to a general lull in the PC market. The company executive also said Microsoft is being very thoughtful about "what's going well, what's not going well" when it comes to Windows 8, and it's considering options on how to improve things.
READ: Microsoft Windows 8.1 Update 1 to release after Build
Reller didn't detail any changes expected to come in Windows 8.1 Update 1, though the company apparently wants Windows 8 to run on smaller devices. This echoes earlier reports that claimed Update 1 might optimise memory and disk space requirements, allowing Windows 8.1 to run on lower-end and smaller tablets.
Microsoft is developing a Windows 8.1 update called Update 1. It is thought to release on 8 April, shortly after Microsoft's Build developer conference that kicks off on 2 April.

The movie revolves around the struggle and vulnerability of 16-year old Mayil (Sridevi) when in love.
One aspect of all Balachander films is the way he hits you with bis message..he does not convey the message..he hits you with them and hits you hard...but Azhakan is an exception.....He drives home the story in this film very subtly aided by great music and wonderful performances. Azhakan tells the story of a widowed father (Mamootty) and his 4 children and the twists in his life when 3 women fall for him while he falls for one of them. The movie is not a typical masala Tamil movie with women falling for the protagonist for his heroism. The reason behind each woman's desire is very rationally explained. Mammooty gives a splendid performance and shows that a hero need not be a 20 something angry youngster wanting to take revenge or correct the society by taking on villains one on one. He is a loving father, a successful hotelier, a respectable citizen, an earnest lover and an understanding person. Geetha, Madhubala and Banupriya have played their roles excellently. Geetha as the Professor, Madhubala as the chirpy teenager are apt for their roles. Bhanupriya as the Dancer who is dedicated to her art gives a good performance with some great dance sequences. The song "Kozhi koovum" exploits her skill to the fullest. Each and every character has a touch of humour blended into it, while Suresh Chakkravarthy's character embodies humour. The film is a good example for cinema that is not very serious but at the same time does not bore or irritate you with senseless twists and turns. The scenes where Mamootty interacts with his children are a delight to watch and hats off to the director for giving a great family story. A movie not to be missed if you are looking for a soft, simple and interesting movie with some good performances.

To add to what I wrote earlier...
Rios might be a smidge too big for Broner at this point. Even though he's only one weight class ahead, Rios looks like a junior middleweight out there. He's tough as hell, hits hard, but looks easy to outbox. Its an interesting fight to think of but Broner needs to step up his competition before he considers this fight.

Height has nothing to do with it. Mayweather is 5'7 or 5'8 and he conquered that schit to a T.
It's not about height; more technique. You could be 5'5 and conquer that schit and a motherfcker won't touch you.

rios by ko, good fight for rios as i would assume broner would only try to outbox rios and randomly exchange. Rios would just put his pressure and power in full efect and wait for broner to crack........i love the way people here say rios is mediocre but the truth is hes entertaining, fun to watch and explosive, something your fav boxers are not...........

Are you secretive or do you love to share all you know and have with your fellow nail techs?
We ask a salon owner, a booth renter, and an employee about what they choose to divulge to their fellow nail techs--and what tricks they keep hidden up their sleeves.
Millie Haynam explains the hows and whys of educational retreats, which are designed to educate, motivate, and foster team unity.
Ten years ago any nail tech would have called you crazy if you said you were opening a salon that offered only natural nail services. Today, successful natural nail salons are servicing a growing clientele, and most are doing it with very little marketing.

Should you list your salon on the Internet? With free listings you have nothing to lose, but the jury's still out on the benefit of paying for online advertising.
When looking for a new employee, or even a booth renter, salon owners seek professionalism — and a well-crafted resume or portfolio is one way to demonstrate this. If you have wondered how to put together a cover letter, resume, or portfolio, wonder no more. Here is the information you need to get you started.

Since we're focusing on education in this month's issue, we thought it fitting to spotlight schools that are providing their nail students with topnotch education. Offering business classes, advanced education, and resources such as job placement after graduation are some of the ways they're helping turn out nail techs better suited for the real world of nails.
This issue is packed with ideas on education: the state of it, ideas on reforming it, complaints about it, praise for it (what else would you expect from a magazine that bills itself as "Advanced Education for Nail Professionals"?).
Need a good reason to get more business education? Salon owner Millie Haynam highlights the importance of not just relying on your technical prowess. From marketing and money management to people skills and PR, business skills are vital to making your salon a success.
Being a mentor is more than a time commitment. Yes, you pass on your knowledge, and yes, your salon can benefit by grooming new employees. But mentoring also lets you pass your passion on to a new generation of nail professionals. Here are three stories of impassioned techs who passed their fire on to new people in the industry — and the very concrete rewards they still find in it.

Caught Sleeping!!!
We humans sleep, animals sleep too, but do plants sleep? For the first time, researchers have caught trees in the act of 'sleeping' with their branches drooping down by as much as 10 centimeters during the night. Researchers hypothesize that, this change in stance during night, could be an indicator of 'the resting' state in trees.
Ever since the origin of life on earth, most living creatures have aligned their lifestyle, behaviour around the 24 hour day-night rhythm.

SanDisk Sansa portable MP3 players
Ilse Jurriën : September 13th 2006 - 18:32 CET
SanDisk Sansa portable MP3 players :
Creating a user experience for its Sansa portable media players, SanDisk today announced that seven companies will offer a variety of Sansa licensed accessories under a new Made for Sansa program. These include speaker docks, travel cases, headphones, armbands, FM auto transmitters, chargers and cables. "We are pleased to welcome the first partners in our Sansa accessory program," said E. Bone, SanDisk's director of consumer products. "With each new addition to the line of licensed Sansa accessories, we are creating a more complete ecosystem for enhancing the user experience among the growing base. Now users will have many options to enhance, customize and personalize their SanDisk players."
Sandisk MP3 player accessories
Companies represented in this initial group of accessory manufacturers are Altec Lansing, DLO (Digital Lifestyle Outfitters), Griffin Technology, HandStands, Macally Peripherals, Maximo Products and Speck Products. Many items will be available in the fourth quarter of this year, in time for the holiday shopping season. Demand for MP3 player accessories has grown dramatically in recent years. A recent report from Mintel International Group, a market research company, said that MP3 accessories in the US generated $50 million in sales during 2001 but reached $2 billion this year. That figure represents more than one-third of the total US market for stand-alone MP3 players (not including mobile phones), which some estimates place at $5.7 billion.
Made for Sansa - Accessories
• Portable stereo speakers from Altec Lansing and Macally Peripherals.
• Travel cases and armband holders from DLO, Griffin Technology, HandStands and Speck.
• Wireless headphones from Macally Peripherals and wired earphones from Maximo Products.
• FM transmitters for playback through automobile sound systems from DLO, Griffin Technology
• USB cables, chargers, adapters and other peripherals
• According to the Mintel report, people who own MP3 accessories said they spent an average of $90 on their last accessory purchase.

"Portable MP3 players are increasingly mainstream devices - today, nearly one quarter of US households report owning at least one," said Susan Kevorkian, an analyst with IDC. "Tailor-made portable player accessories can enhance the user experience by extending player utility beyond the pocket, promoting excellent audio playback quality, and enabling personalization based on specific fashion and lifestyle preferences." SanDisk is the original inventor of flash storage cards and is the world's largest supplier of flash data storage card products, using its patented, high-density flash memory and controller technology.

After I graduated from college in May 2007, I started interviewing and finally got a real job in July. I never had any credit card debt or any student loans since I worked 20-30 hours/week during school, 70-80 hours/week during breaks, kept good GPA's, campus involvement, won some scholarships (I didn't have a full ride though) but most importantly lived frugally.
My current employer pays me well, and I have all sorts of benefits. The problem for me was that I didn't spend all the money that I earn, since I learned in college to live frugally. I wanted to buy index ETF's like SPY, VEU, CWI or EEM. However, that involved risk, and after 4 years of rising stock prices, financial markets looked toppy. In addition the news always talked about how the housing market is crashing. Thus I started putting all my money in 9 Month Certificates of Deposit, yielding 5 – 5.3% annually. I also put 5 % of my income in 401k, since my employer provides me with a 100% match on that amount. I bought my first CD on July 27, and I bought my last CD on January 14. In the meantime the S&P 500 has started falling a lot. It's currently trading at 15 month lows. It's also down 9.7% since the start of the year. So once my CD's start maturing in April and beyond, and the market being pushed down by news about recession, housing bubble etc, I would be in a good position to buy good dividend paying stocks which have a history if consistently increasing their payments. I would write more on my watch list later on.
The funniest thing is that if were a fund manager/ stock investor who didn't invest his/her money until now ( instead of doing his/her purchases at year-end 2007) you have a risk-free way of OUTPERFORMING S&P 500 in 2008 by a whopping 10% just by putting your whole portfolio in SPY and forgetting about it. In addition to that, you would still be able to outperform the market on average by 1 % point over the next 10 years!
Unfortunately though, waiting for the market to fall below its year-end close at the beginning of a new year is not a good long-term strategy. If you participated in this sort of market timing, you would have missed some big moves in the market like the one in 1995. Fixed Income securities like CD's, bonds and money market also have lower long-term returns, compared to stocks. Even if you buy SPY at current prices, you would outperform the market in 2008, but there's no guarantee that you will make money. The market could still go lower. So what should an investor do? Maybe you could start building positions in companies which would not suffer significant blows in their financial position from a recession. Furthermore the management of these companies should reward its shareholders by consistently distributing increased dividend payments year after year, supported by increase in earnings. If you get a good yield on your stocks and you are confident that the payment will increase over time, then you should put money consistently into those names. Through the power of dollar-cost averaging and compounding, you will come out ahead of the game in the end with a pretty decent passive dividend income.

Holy Shit...
Look I got a theory... the reason we have sports and teams and all that is to sate the war instinct of humans...
We are fighters... its in our instinct.. we want to conquer and make others fall before us... even if you dont realize you feel this way... subconsciously you do.
In order to establish order the ancient greeks created a win/win situation.
The Olympics...
sure it doesnt 100% work
conflicts still broke out... but it keeps tensions from escalating much worse than they already did...
also it was a win/win
Its a way to please and worship the Gods...
fast forward to our era... the same principles apply...
You follow a local/favorite team and cheer them on while they crush the competition!
A local team winning will give you pride... make you feel special...
It sates your instinct to destroy... Soccer/football is no different and is the same...
And the world elite get to worship their Gods during these games... just as the Greeks and Roman Games and just as the Mayans and countless others who worshiped the Gods via competitive sporting services...
I'm not into sports... but i like watching the world series and the superbowl and the NCAA basketball championship...
my wife hates sports...
and last year while watching the NCAA basketball championship...
My home state was playing...
literally on both Teams...
Louisville and University of Kentucky were playing... for the championship
my wife who fucking hates sports. she goes rabid like a mad squirrel at the thought of them... was sitting next to me on the couch cheering UK on...
She looks at me and says I finally understand why people like sports... its pride for your people...
At that moment i stood up walked out side and smoked... I had my proof it was devilry
But if you take into consideration
Dr. Astro's post
There is a narrative developing within the scientific community against american football. Research in recent years has revealed a greater extent of brain damage and pathology as a result of playing the sport than was previously appreciated. Here's the thing though, the current focus is NOT on pharmacotherapeutic strategies to reduce or prevent damage, the focus is on "reducing subconcussive blows to the head." In other words, altering the game itself so players don't hit their heads. Ultimately it won't just be about reducing the repetition of hits, eventually it'll be about even a single hit being too much...

They are going to be coming after football (and not just pro football, but high school and college as well), mark my words, I have inside information about this and it's not from my uncle.
link to www.ninds.nih.gov
"Is participation in contact sports a CTE risk factor for school-aged children and young adults?"
"Are CTE and single exposure TBI distinct pathologic processes or part of a disease spectrum?"
Dr. Astro
and what my ramble up there says...
they are removing this... why?
Do they want to abolish sports? do they want us to return to having our subconscious nagging at us for war...
What about worshiping the Gods?
The evils that long since ruled us are no longer in charge...
You wanted change America... well you got it
Before its over you're gonna miss the Illuminati... they are no longer the head honchos

It's enjoyable to watch two cats greet each other. They purr loudly, butt heads and lick each other -- sometimes even when they first meet. Kitties lick each other for a variety of reasons, and if a cat considers you part of her family, she'll lick you, too.
To Clean
Felines are naturally clean critters. They like everything to be neat and in order -- including their feline friends. One reason cats lick each other upon greeting is to clean each other. Maybe Felix just finished feasting on his evening entree. Max might come up and lick Felix's face to remove any leftover scraps. Felix gets a bath, while Max gets to enjoy the tiny last morsel of food. Some kitties give full-body baths, while others may simply lick the other feline in the face.
Marking Territory
One reason mama kitty licks her young is to put her scent on them. Each time they return to her after a play session, she'll re-coat them with her scent as a way of claiming her litter, explains the Animal Planet website. Kitties do the same thing as adults, licking each other to spread their scents and mark their territories. This way, cats in the same home all smell the same. If a feline who has a different scent comes around, the scent alerts the rest of the group that a stranger is among them.
Being Social
Cats are social creatures. When they meet, they'll rub noses or sniff each other's rear end. As they start to bond and get to know each other better, they'll become more and more affectionate. You might see your purring pals paw at each other's face and licking one another. This type of behavior is similar to kissing among humans. Since cats can't hug and kiss, they'll bump into each other and lick.
Licking You
Your furry pal might even lick you every time he greets you. Whether he licks your feet or jumps up on the arm of the sofa and licks your hand, he's treating you like a member of his feline family. Your cuddly companion licks you to clean you and cover you with his scent. He's making you smell like him, so that when other kitties come around, they'll know you already "belong" to a feline.
Special Considerations
Some cats also nibble each other to show affection and spread their scent, but nibbling should not be aggressive. If your kitty's bites draw blood or are accompanied by growling, it might be a sign of aggression and a signal that your little buddy is upset. Separate your felines until they cool off. If your fuzzy friend is biting you, he may be telling you that he is annoyed and wants to be left alone.
