What they Do How they Work FloScan Fuel Flow Monitoring System Navman TrackFish 6600 Chartplotter, Fishfinder & Fuel Solution Fuel Management Summary
Above: When polling boaters for our Foundation Findings, we found that many were curious about how to increase their fuel efficiency and range of their boat. When polling boaters for our Foundation Findings, we found that many were curious about how to increase their fuel efficiency and range of their boat. Furthermore, several respondents didn't know with certainty how much fuel their tanks hold, while others complained their gauges were inaccurate. So to learn more, we obtained fuel computers from two manufacturers to find out if they could help boaters become smarter while boating and manage their fuel more efficiently.
What They Do: The simplest of fuel computers can be purchased for under $200 and will keep track of basic fuel usage. The more advanced models not only tell you real-time gallons per hour fuel consumption, but indicate the total amount you have burned, and even better, how much fuel you have remaining. The very best fuel computers are integrated with your GPS and calculate your nautical miles-per-gallon (NMPG) giving you a true read-out of your efficiency. One model we tested even gives your projected range, essentially telling you how many miles you can go with the fuel remaining, at your current speed. How they Work: Simply put, fuel computers monitor the flow of fuel through fuel lines en-route to your engine using an internal paddle wheel and infra-red counter. For gasoline engines, this is straight forward and uses just one flow sensor installed somewhere after your primary filter. In the case of a diesel engine, an additional flow sensor is added to the return line, essentially subtracting the returned fuel from the delivered amount to give you flow rate. If operating two engines, select a manufacturer that offers a tandem engine readout/display or you can purchase a unit for each engine.
Above: FloScan Fuel Flow Monitoring System (Series K9000/GPS Interface) In the dash, with black bezels and amber and green LCD backlighting, these units looked as if they were original equipment. Above: FloScan Fuel Flow Monitoring System (Series K9000/GPS Interface) The FloScan 9000 has four simultaneous readouts. The largest readout is the RPMs and is dead center. Above that is your engine hours. Below the RPM is the GPH/MPG and Gallons (total consumed). In short, everything you need to know about your fuel consumption is available at a glance. FLOSCAN FUEL FLOW MONITORING SYSTEM (Series K9000/GPS Interface; retails for $1,399.99). FloScan has been making flow sensors since the 70's when the airline, trucking and shipping industries had a great need to conserve, evaluate and manage fuel use. With gas prices going up regularly, and with the great majority of recreational boats being powerboats, it only made sense for FloScan to tap this market as well. FloScan makes units for both gas and diesel engines, either single or twins – ranging from 20hp to 4300hp and are available through the BoatU.S. or West Marine catalog sales special orders department, or bought directly from the company.
We obtained two complete FloScan units for testing on a 55' Fleming power cruiser, our testing platform for these devices. The packaging came with DVD installation instructions, but to stay on the safe side, we took our test boat with twin 435hp Caterpillar 3208TAs to an authorized Fleming dealer who was at ease with installing these units. In fact, the dealer commented that all long range cruisers should be equipped with such devices.
The FloScan units replaced the boat's existing tachometers in the dashboard of our Fleming. Fortunately, no cutting was needed. Installers just dropped the units in and hooked them up to the GPS unit and both the forward and return flow sensors below decks. In the dash, with black bezels and amber and green LCD backlighting, these units looked as if they were original equipment.
FloScan Tests We had hoped to just find out if fuel computers could be an accurate tool for avoiding overfilling, however once the data was collected, we discovered we also had a wealth of information relating to efficient fuel consumption, an area that presented surprise after surprise.
We were fortunate in that the Fleming was about to head down the Intercoastal Waterway from Chesapeake Bay to Florida, giving us an excellent opportunity to collect data on the FloScan units. We asked the boat's hired captain, an experienced skipper, to keep a special fuel log we created for the 1,500 mile trip. In addition to maintaining a fueling record, we also asked the captain a series of questions about the peculiarities of readouts and experiences (positive or negative) at refueling time.
When given the pre-departure lecture on the use of the new units, the captain appeared unimpressed (and perhaps a little skeptical). His log book revealed otherwise, however: "This has been interesting and the first time that I have watched a FloScan this closely. I usually run at a speed the owner requests. The FloScan impressed us that the higher the RPM, the higher the fuel rate, and it goes up rapidly!"
The FloScan appeared to be a very valuable tool for determining fuel consumption and could be relied upon to determine the amount of fuel needed at the fuel dock. Although we had hoped for more precise data, the captain (who was primarily engaged in his job of delivering a boat, not our job of conducting a Foundation Findings test!) wisely used every means available to calculate the amount of fuel he needed. He noted in his log that he could "probably rely solely on the FloScan to determine fuel remaining, but I always choose to double check it with the clear sight gauges adjacent to each fuel tank." And who can blame him in the middle of a long range passage?
What We Found While we didn't get definitive data on fueling accuracy, what we did learn was pretty amazing. With all the fuel data displayed right in front of you, it takes just a short while to determine what trim and throttle settings your boat likes and which are most efficient. For instance, based on what he saw, the captain of the Fleming identified 2,000 RPMs as the "sweet spot." This equates to 7 GPH per engine (totaling 14 GPH for both engines) at a speed of about 10 knots.
Now, here is the kicker --- remember that the captain stated that he usually runs the boat at the speed the owner requests? Suppose in this case, the owner requested the delivery captain to run the boat at 12 knots. That's only two knots faster, but our calculations show he would have burned approximately twice as much fuel! For the test boat's trip south, this owner would have spent an extra $4,000 in diesel fuel!
Although the FloScan is also a reliable tachometer and hour meter, its basic function is to calculate fuel consumed. It does not, however, calculate gallons remaining. We found this to be a bit concerning, as most all other high-end fuel computers do have this important feature. When asked, FloScan responded that they are working on adding new features, and may combine it with another software and chartplotter package so you can program your tank size, which will ultimately give you "range" or miles to go on fuel remaining.
Above: NAVMAN TrackFish 6600 (Chartplotter, Fishfinder & Fuel Solution) showing fuel screen. There was no reason to scroll around or tab between screens, since fuel used, fuel remaining, fuel flow, fuel economy, boat speed and nautical range were all right there before your eyes. To the right of this information was a bar graph that serves as a fuel gauge. When your tank is full, your bar is all yellow. As you get closer to empty, the bar turns red and you will hear an audible low fuel alarm. Above: NAVMAN TrackFish 6600 (Chartplotter, Fishfinder & Fuel Solution) showing chartplotter. This unit is just over 9" tall and has a 7" vertical LCD display with fantastic resolution which allows for sharp definition of all screens, especially chart and sonar images, even in bright sunlight. NAVMAN TRACKFISH 6600 (Chartplotter, Fishfinder & Fuel Solution; retails for $1,899.99). Navman, a division Brunswick, the world's largest marine company, has been delivering marine consumer electronics for 16 years. With a design focus on simple screen navigation and intuitive functions and options, the Navman won us over rather quickly. Navman provided us a TrackFish 6600 for testing with a few words of advice on installation and promised us if we only had room for only one instrument on the dash, this was it.
The boat we had available to test this unit was a 21-foot Stratos center console powered with a single 200hp gas outboard. Since our application was for a gasoline engine, it had only one inline fuel sensor. Navman also offers models adaptable for 2-stroke, EFI and diesel engines ranging from 50-450hp. For the diesel units a second fuel transducer is included to subtract unburned fuel returned from the engine.
This unit was just over 9" tall and has a 7" vertical LCD display with fantastic resolution which allows for sharp definition of all screens, especially chart and sonar images. Our unit came with a multi-function bracket that allowed us to flush mount, dash mount or overhead mount it. We decided to dash mount it on a bracket that allowed us to swivel it. We noted the fuel sending unit was not much larger than a golf ball with a simple barb fitting on each end and a sending wire that returned to the readout display.
Navman Tests: Our first test was to install the Navman. Since our FloScan was professionally installed, we decided to give this one a try ourselves, after all, there was no engine room claustrophobia to deal with and the fear of gouging a rosewood dashboard with an errant turn of a screwdriver would not present itself on this project. As promised by the directions, installation was a snap. After that, we set out to determine if our fuel computer was really worth the effort (and the money) for a boat this size and if it could prevent accidental fuel spills.
The only way to evaluate these features was to go for test runs, watch fuel consumption and monitor the readouts—then refuel the boat and do it all over again. On our first run out, we were impressed with how easy to read the screen was, even with bright sun light and inherent boat vibration. When in the full screen mode with a simple white background, the black numbers were easy to see all on one screen. There was no reason to scroll around or tab between screens, since fuel used, fuel remaining, fuel flow, fuel economy, boat speed and nautical range were all right there before your eyes. To the right of this information was a bar graph that serves as a fuel gauge. When your tank is full, the bar is all yellow. As you get closer to empty, the bar turns red and you will hear an audible low fuel alarm.
Since the fuel computer just reports the flow of fuel rather than actually measuring it in the tank, the first thing you must do is "calibrate" it. All that is involved is telling the computer how much fuel you have in your tank initially (as a baseline) and programming in how much it holds so that it will know what to calculate in the future. You must "reset" the Navman after every fill-up to keep it updated/calibrated. Keeping it calibrated is critical to keeping it accurate. What We Found If all you are looking for is a fuel computer, you can get a Navman (either for gas or diesel) with all the fuel features, including a low fuel alarm starting at about a tenth of the price of the fully loaded combination chartplotter/fishfinder we evaluated. However, with all the features combined, we can't deny it's a great value.
Over the course of our trials, we determined the flow rate to be accurate on this model and the fuel efficiency readings to be infinitely useful. We could adjust throttle and trim and in an instant be provided a new readout in response to our adjustments. Raising and lowering trim tabs and even sending passengers forward or aft would alter the efficiency in nautical miles per gallon (NMPG) and flow rate.
Range was something that was a bit intriguing to us. At idle and with a full tank of gas, our range was 4,000 miles! Of course, our flow rate was only a tenth of a gallon an hour. At full speed, our range was drastically less and more fathomable for a vessel of this size. In short, the range was all over the board since it was directly tied to speed. Additionally, since range is tied to NMPG and a functional GPS, good GPS signal strength is a must. The fuel functions are all tied to the flow meter function, and the rest is pretty much a simple internal mathematical calculation, with no guesswork for the captain. Fuel Management Systems : Testing the fuel computers reminded us of how expensive "fueling" our hobby can be, but they were a real eye-opener as we learned all sorts of tricks to make our boat go further on a single tank of gas. They can really be construed as the "must-have" gauge for your boat. They are rather simple devices that do not rely on sophisticated moving parts. They not only help track on board fuel usage and how much you need at the fuel dock, but also help reduce fuel consumption and increase your range.
Furthermore, a fuel computer can actually serve as a diagnostic tool. For instance, a decrease in GPH could indicate a problem in one of the engines such as a blocked fuel line, spotty injectors or fouled fuel filter. An increase in GPH could indicate other health issues such as improper firing, bad ignition timing or even a broken fuel line. An increase in both engines could mean a fouled bottom, improperly aligned shafts or nicked propellers.
For determining fuel level, we urge users not rely solely on the fuel computer alone. A prudent mariner will check and compare data with an in-dash gauge or a sight glass if available and will have absorbent pads ready when refueling. An experienced boater will also take into account other information including the feel of the helm, the wake and other cues to help determine peak efficiency and overall performance. A final note on fuel gauges. Resist the urge to check your in-dash fuel gauge while refueling your boat. It is a dangerous habit to have any electricity and charge flowing through your boat while dispensing fuel.

Company's success moves it beyond rough spots of 2011
The last 18 months have been sundry times for Science Applications International Corp., as it's been a period marked by a contracting scandal, criminal prosecution and a leadership shakeup but also by growth, transformation and hope, according to K. Stuart Shea, chief operating officer for the McLean, Va.-based firm.

"But we take responsibility for it and I think as a result of the extensive changes we've made and what we've focused on and where we've put our energies, SAIC will be a much better company and a much stronger company moving forward," he said.
William Loomis, managing director of Stifel Nicolaus, agreed that this episode will only be a bump in the road for SAIC, since the company moved so aggressively once the problem was uncovered and has taken steps "to ensure that it doesn't happen again." "I do not think the CityTime will impact SAIC's competitive position in the market," Loomis said. In fact, SAIC's future in the near term appears to be bright for a number of reasons, not the least of which is that, as of this past March, the company has a new CEO. John Jumper served as Air Force chief of staff during the first George W. Bush administration and was previously a member of the SAIC board of directors. Shea said Jumper is focused on increasing shareholder value and refining and executing the company's new strategic focus, which has been developed over the past three years in anticipation of a more austere federal budget and in response to changes to the contracting environment. The new plan includes moving away from platform-based programs and pursuing the high-growth market areas of health, energy, ISR, cybersecurity and logistics readiness and sustainment, as well as trimming corporate overhead and emphasizing the pursuit and capture of large $100 million-plus programs. The strategy is already working, Shea said. Last year, the company increased its $100 million-plus contract wins from 26 to 40. They included the Tire Successor Initiative, a Defense Logistics Agency vehicle worth up to $1 billion to provide supply chain management of land and aircraft tires used by the Armed Services and foreign military customers; the NASA Integrated Communications Services contract, which has a maximum potential value of nearly $1.3 billion for 10 years; and the $200 million Plain Field Renewable Energy Biomass Project, which will create the clean energy needed to power as many as 37,000 homes. The company also shored up its strategic plan by acquiring Vitalize Consulting Solutions Inc., a provider of clinical, business and IT services to the healthcare market. It also sold its oil and gas IT business which had been languishing in the current economic climate and no longer provided any strategic advantage. "SAIC is actually doing quite well in the current environment," Loomis said. "Most of its similar sized peers have service units that are declining, while SAIC has been about flat on revenue. But things will get tougher for SAIC and the industry over the next couple of years, I think." Shea, however, is bullish on the company's growth prospects. "One of the key things we've done right is that we've gotten out in front and been pragmatic about this market," he said. "We're executing the steps today that we've taken and strategies we've put in place over the last 36 months and hoping that it brings us right through those more difficult budgetary times. We are cautiously optimistic about what the future holds."

I think both Carman and Dong Xuan are very talented and beautiful actresses .
Now I want to know who is more beautiful or has the better acting (in your opinion).
I haven´t seen lots of series of Dong Xuan so I can´t exactly say who has better acting , but I think Dong Xuan is a bit prettier than Carman Lee.

January 28, 2013 Minor League UpdatePotential Impact Rookies In 2013 (AL EAST)When we talk about "impact" rookies, it's important to note that several rookies will be getting the call to the majors and will fail to help their team in any way, shape, or form. Coming up with a few big hits or making a couple of quality starts, however, could make a big difference at the end of a 162-game season. Here are some AL East rookies who I think can make an impact on their team's success in 2013. Click HERE for my NL East picks. Baltimore OriolesJonathan Schoop, 2B: As a 20 year-old, Schoop wasn't overwhelmed in his Double-A debut in 2012. He had 14 home runs, 24 doubles, and 50 walks in 124 games playing primarily second base, which just happens to be the position the O's could be looking to upgrade at some point in 2013. If Brian Roberts fails to stay healthy again, Alexi Casilla and/or Ryan Flaherty could help to fill the void but a strong first half for Schoop could have him in position for an early August promotion for the stretch drive a la Manny Machado. Dylan Bundy, RHP: The O's head into 2013 with enough rotation depth to compete in the AL East once again. What they will lack early in the season, though, is someone with a pitch arsenal as strong as Bundy, who shot through the minors as a 19 year-old before a late-season cup of coffee in the majors. He'll start the season in either Double-A or Triple-A, where the O's could monitor his workload before unleashing him on big league hitters at some point after June 1st. Boston Red SoxJackie Bradley, Jr., OF: A competitive Red Sox team with a healthy outfield is unlikely to call on Bradley, their likely center fielder and leadoff hitter of the future, in 2013. But if the 22 year-old can continue to show an ability to reach base at a high rate in the upper minors -- he had a .430 OBP between Double-A and Hi-A last season -- while the big league outfield struggles to produce and stay on the field, don't rule him out. Steven Wright, RHP: The 28 year-old Wright had a terrific 2012 season and continues to get better at his craft, meaning that the Red Sox could have another knuckleballer on their roster less than two seasons removed from Tim Wakefield's last start. Wakefield, of course, debuted in Boston as a 28 year-old in 1995 and ended up winning 186 games for the Sox over the next 17 seasons. New York YankeesDavid Adams, 2B/3B: Injuries derailed his 2010-11 seasons but Adams returned in 2012 to post an .834 OPS in 86 Double-A games followed by a strong performance in the Arizona Fall League. The 25 year-old has played mostly second base throughout his career but he made 23 starts last season at third base, a position he could be called upon to fill at some point with Alex Rodriguez's status up in the air after hip surgery and Kevin Youkilis very unlikely to play in more than 120 games at the position.

We recently launched the Fulbright Public Policy Fellowship, the newest element of the Fulbright U.S. Student Program. This innovative exchange opportunity is at the vanguard of international public diplomacy, as it leverages the excellence of the Fulbright Program to achieve global development objectives while simultaneously advancing the public policy research agenda and fostering mutual understanding and lasting ties between the United States and partner countries.
The Fulbright Public Policy Fellowship will allow fellows to serve in professional placements in foreign government ministries or institutions and gain hands-on public sector experience in participating foreign countries while carrying out academic research or a study project. With this new fellowship, we further align the Fulbright Program with the foreign policy imperative set forth by President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton to elevate development as a central pillar, alongside diplomacy and defense, in all that we do.
In this inaugural year of the Fulbright Public Policy Fellowship, we are pleased to announce opportunities for professional placements within the governments of Tunisia, Côte d'Ivoire, Nigeria, Bangladesh, Nepal, Mongolia, Thailand, Haiti, Jamaica, Guatemala, and the Dominican Republic. The Fellowship will provide one-year placements within cabinet ministries or senior offices of host-country governments. In these positions, Fulbright Fellows will work side-by-side with government leaders to tackle the toughest public policy issues such as public health, education, energy, finance, agriculture, or rule of law. In tandem with this placement, fellows will pursue an academic project related to their professional assignment.
Beyond learning new skills and helping to build public sector capacity, Fulbright Public Policy Fellowships will help to achieve the ultimate goal of the Fulbright Program -- to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries. Fulbright Public Policy Fellows will join a network of more than 310,000 Fulbright alumni from the United States and over 150 countries around the world who have conducted research, exchanged ideas and contributed to finding solutions to shared international concerns.
For complete application and eligibility information, please visit: http://us.fulbrightonline.org/fulbright-public-policy-fellowships.html.
Editor's Note: International Education Week is November 14-18, 2011. Find out how you can become involved by visiting iew.state.gov.

First off I'd like to give a huge MAHALO to RenegadeRows and Controlled Labs for letting me test out their new White Flood Watermellon
I'm going to be logging white flood v2. I'm basically a die hard when it comes to preworkouts. I've taken, Nano Vapor, NO Xplod, NO Shotgun, Superpump250, White Flood v1, Supercharge Extreme, Dark Rage, Jack3d, Muscle Marinade, Mesomorph, N2KTS, and maybe a couple more. Currently I've been taking Mesomorph or N2kTS, and I like them. They're both known to be strong, so hopefully my tollerence won't hinder my opinion on WF. Either way, I'll be taking a 1 week vacation in the beginning of July, so I can "de-stim" for 7 days, and then get a clean run at the WF when I'm back from my trip.
Daily Supps:
CL Orange Triad
Fish Oil
My current stats are 6'3", 212lb, ~13% BF maybe less. Im recomping, trying to continue to get stronger while dropping weight. In the last 10 weeks I lost exactly 40lb. The goal at the moment is to get down below 210lb before my trip, and it looks I'm right on track.
I took White Flood the past 2 days. I can comment on it, but there was something else on my mind and I didn't have the greatest sessions. But the issue was resolved, and I should be back on top of things tomorrow. Buuuut...What I did notice so far is that I'm not sure if I like the taste. The powder itself is really tasty, but when mixed with water, it tasted a little weird. I'm going to try less water tomorrow, and try and figure it out, maybe the taste just isn't for me. On the plus side, it doesn't taste bad. Bad tasting preworkouts often give me nausea, and I haven't experienced any type of nausea, or bathroom issues, so that's awesome. The initial hit of the stims was great, but it felt like it didn't last throughout the entire workout. I'll see if I notice a difference tomorrow. My lifts have been strong the last two days, so that's good too. Starting tomorrow I'll be logging it throughout.
Here we go

Extended Summary
The Great Depression is finally over in 1937, but times are still hard. Because her parents cannot care for her while they struggle to regain their financial footing back in Chicago, fifteen-year-old Mary Alice is sent to live with her Grandma Dowdel in a small town in southern Illinois. Although she and her brother, Joey, have spent summers with Grandma before, this time Mary Alice will be going alone—for an indeterminate length of time. Mary Alice arrives at the train station with only a small trunk of clothing, a radio, and her beloved cat, Bootsie. She feels unhappy about the changes taking place in her life.
Grandma Dowdel is a big, imposing woman with a personality to match. Mary Alice receives no hug from her undemonstrative relative when she gets off of the train. Instead, she is immediately whisked off to the local high school to be enrolled in the eleventh grade. Through no fault of her own, Mary Alice has an immediate confrontation with Mildred Burdick, the offspring of the most lawless and shiftless family in town. Mildred follows Mary Alice home to collect a dollar she is attempting to extort from the new "rich Chicago girl," but she is no match for Grandma Dowdel. In a frank foreshadowing of things to come, Grandma cunningly outwits Mildred and sends her packing. She tells her granddaughter, "I can't fight all your battles for you, but I can give you a level start."
Mary Alice endures the first weeks of school. She is befriended by skinny Ina-Rae Gage but is ostracized by the other girls, who are led by the popular Carleen Lovejoy. Before long, it is Halloween. To provide pies for the party at school, Grandma secures a bounty of pecans from Old Man Nyquist's tree by cheerfully ramming it with a tractor to make the nuts fall on the ground in a torrent. Later, when she perceives that pranksters are about to vandalize her outhouse, she catches the ringleader with a tripwire and douses him with a pan of stinking, hot homemade glue.
On Armistice Day, Grandma rouses her reluctant granddaughter before dawn so they can attend the annual commemoration at the old Abernathy farm. There will be a turkey shoot and a meal of burgoo, a kind of community stew made from whatever contributions the attendees bring. Grandma takes charge of stirring the burgoo and selling it by the cupful for a dime, more or less. The crafty woman seems to know each individual family's financial situation, and she makes...

GRECIAN FORMULA: Cross sections of hair strands taken by optical (top) and fluorescence (bottom) imaging reveal that hair exposed longer to an ancient hair-dye recipe (right) exhibit greater penetration by nanometer-scale crystals deep inside the strands, compared with those exposed briefly (left).
Image: PHILIPPE WALTER
To the list of wonders of the ancient world, perhaps another should be added: nanotechnology. It seems that a hair-dye formula dating to Greek and Roman days works by causing tiny nanocrystals to form deep inside strands of hair.
Cosmetics were known thousands of years ago in ancient Egypt, where lead compounds were applied as foundation or eye makeup. A hair-dye recipe first described in Greco-Roman times involves applying a paste of lead oxide and calcium hydroxide, or lime, to graying and fair locks. As in the famed Grecian Formula--also a lead-based recipe--repeated applications darken the hair as much as desired. Researchers knew the lead-lime mix reacts with sulfur present in hair's keratin proteins to form crystals of lead sulfide, also called galena.
To figure out just how tiny and penetrating those galena crystals are, a team of investigators from the Center for Research and Restoration of the Museums of France (C2RMF), L'Or¿al Research and Argonne National Laboratory soaked blond hairs in a solution of the Greco-Roman chemicals for up to three days. Once the strands were sufficiently darkened the team examined them under a special electron microscope capable of imaging thin sections from a relatively thick sample. They saw that the strands were shot through with lead-sulfide crystals averaging 4.8 nanometers in size--about the same as the so-called quantum dots studied by researchers today. The crystals formed strings down the length of the hair fiber. Judging from the spacing of these strings and chemical changes to the hair, the crystals apparently grow among the sulfur-rich amino acids that surround the hair's keratin microfibers, the group reports in the September Nano Letters. "It is remarkable that the composition and supramolecular organization of keratins can control PbS [lead-sulfide] nanocrystal growth inside a hair," the group writes.
Philippe Walter of the C2RMF, lead author of the report, says he has not studied what happens to hair dyed with Grecian Formula, but he suspects nanocrystals are also at work. Such lead-based dyes don't seem to be harmful, he notes, because they have trouble penetrating the skin.

Well a new study suggesting young people -- -- inhalers to treat asthma.
May -- at the risk of developing heart problems like irregular heartbeat something like that joining me now fox is medically -- -- Manny Alvarez.
I -- doctor Alvarez so what we're talking about -- this -- -- again about irregular heartbeats why would this be happening and how how dangerous.
Well know how I look this is you know you have you have to remember that asthma rates have been going up and open up so that that doctors are looking for new new therapies.
This is a new class of asthma -- -- and keep calling our -- medications and what they do they have been used in the past of CO PD.
These medicines sometimes can give you the very fact that fast heartbeat.
So in some cases what they did is they looked at the effect of this increase hard -- Whether or not -- became irregular they looked at about 7600.
Kids or patients from small children only do the agent point four.
How when they found was that there was a one point 56.
The statistical increase in developing this kind of a written.
Now if you look at this and basic numbers basically is that 56 patients out of the 7600.
Have these are written it's been so it just comes to tell you that in in these types of medicine you have to be a little bit careful.
You have to consider things like no caffeine.
Energy drinks some over the counter medicines because those things can also make your heartbeat go faster and therefore can make the problem -- -- -- -- -- exactly there did your parent and in your child uses inhaler does that does the benefit of the inhaler.
Out outweigh the -- this happened so -- Absolutely.
As long as they don't have any on the -- -- condition or any medical problems like diabetes.
-- you know right now this is not something to be Majorly concerned about this is something that you have to be aware that it could be a potential side effect.
You have to talk to the doctor look for other contributing factors but absolutely many times -- medications are saving lives.
At a very severe asthma attack when it's not control can be right incredibly danger you know.

This is the easiest and most elegant way to get what loks just like a salon manicure. NO dry time!! No smudging !! Lasts for 10-14 days. This is REAL polish Not stickers! Great product
I have really enjoyed these nail polish appliques! I like the fun patterns. They're very easy to apply and I love that I don't have to wait for them to dry.
These were great, like a manicure without having to leave a tip. Lasted 10 days without chipping, much better than the drug store versions of nail strips, which chip after 12 hours.
These are my new favorite beauty product! They are super easy to put on and they last the two weeks that the package says they will. Also, when they do start to tear a little bit on your nails they are not that noticeable... It's less noticeable than chipped polish. These are my go to nail look now!
I love the way these made my nails look. The pink to silver ombre is super pretty. I am a bit thrifty, so I figured out how to use one strip for 2 nails. Because of that, I have a whole sheet left over. The package says, though, to use once they are opened. I am sad that my way of conserving product was for nothing....
obsessed with these. got so many compliments on them and they only took 5min to put on. plus, no drying tim! yay :)
I ordered these after receiving a set in my monthly box. I just returned from vacation in the Cayman Islands for a week. I hate having bare nails, but I knew on vacation I wouldn't be able to paint them that often. I did a lot of scuba diving during my trip and they lasted though everything. I will be ordering these for every vacation!
They were beautiful, and I wore them on prom day! You apply them instantly and bam! It brings a whole new dynamic to your look. These stayed on for a full two weeks before I took them off, and they looked fantastic! FANTASTIC!
These were really difficult to apply and tore easily.... I tried to apply on multiple nails and none of them looked very good.
This pattern caught o much attention. I love how different it is from the usual ones you see. It last about two weeks for me, I am very pleased.
