Tinley Park is a village located primarily in Cook County, Illinois, United States, with a small portion in Will County. The population was 56,703 at the 2010 census.[1] It is one of the fastest growing suburbs south of Chicago. In 2009, Tinley Park was selected by BusinessWeek[2] as the best place to raise a family in America.
Early history[edit]
Records show that prior to European settlement, the area was primarily occupied by the Potawatomi tribe.[citation needed]
19th century[edit]
Settlement of the area which now comprises Tinley Park began in the 1820s by emigrants from the Eastern United States. German settlers became predominant in area by the 1840s, and the village was originally established in 1853 as "Bremen". Irish, English, Scottish, Canadian, and other American settlers were also common in the area.[3]
In the late 19th century, railroads expanded rapidly, and the village happened to be located on the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad line. The influence of the railroad on Bremen was so great that, in 1890, its name was changed to Tinley Park in honor of the village's first railroad station agent, Samuel Tinley, Sr. Even the village's official incorporation took place at the train depot on June 27, 1892.
20th century[edit]
With the railroad came industry and commerce. 1905 saw the Diamond Spiral Washing Machine Company found its first factory in Tinley Park. Local businessmen established an electric utility in 1909. A bottling facility for soda was operated in Tinley Park until the 1950s. Inventor John Rauhoff developed and manufactured a waterproofing additive for cement called Ironite, later used in the construction of Hoover Dam. In the latter part of the 20th century, Tinley Park was, and remains to be, an area of rapid suburban expansion to the west and south of the original site, with over 11,000 housing units constructed between 1970 and 1994.[4]

After its centennial (1992), Tinley Park from the late 20th century to the present has been focused on renovation of its downtown historic district. The historic district is made up of the village's original 1892 boundaries. In this district, landowners are encouraged to maintain the historic edifices or to create new, historically friendly facades for otherwise non-historic buildings built in the last 30 years.
Downtown renovation projects include the creation of a park in the very center of this historic area, near the Tinley Park Rock Island train station, and the recent "North Street Project", a multimillion-dollar project which will raise businesses and dwellings to create an area for more than 100 condominiums, over 40,000 square feet (4,000 m2) of commercial retail space, 10,000 square feet (1,000 m2) of office space, an underground parking facility, and an 11-screen theater which will seat 1,920.
Many arguably historic houses and buildings built before the 1930s have been or are being lost with the intention to re-invent the "historic" downtown center of Tinley Park. Buildings razed include the original Tinley Park one-room schoolhouse, which has been "re-created" on a site adjacent to Old Zion Church and Tinley Park Historical Society building; Central Jr. High School's former building, demolished to make room for a vacant lot; 1920s and older houses along South Street that have been demolished; and recently the Bremen Cash Store (built in the late 19th century) that exists only as stacks of bricks on pallets of which it was formerly built. Several houses along north street are also threatened by the aforementioned "North Street Project".
The First Midwest Bank Amphitheatre (formerly named "The World Music Theater", also "Tweeter Center Chicago"), an outdoor venue which seats 28,000, is located in Tinley Park.[5]
Tinley Park was the site of the Tinley Park Lights, an anomalous multiple mass UFO sighting event in 2004, 2005 and 2006. The Village is also home to 5 Indianapolis 500 race car drivers, including Melvin "Tony" Bettenhausen, his sons, Gary, Merle and Tony Jr., and cousin, Emil Andres.[6]
Tinley Park is located at 41°34′26″N 87°48′14″W / 41.57389°N 87.80389°W (41.573800, -87.803891).[7]
According to the 2010 census, the village has a total area of 16.04 square miles (41.5 km2), of which 16.02 square miles (41.5 km2) (or 99.88%) is land and 0.02 square miles (0.052 km2) (or 0.12%) is water.[8] The village lies on the Tinley Moraine and/or the Valparaiso Moraine.
As of the 2000 census[9], there were 48,401 people, 17,478 households, and 12,793 families residing in the village. The population density was 3,236.9 people per square mile (1,250.0/km²). There were 18,037 housing units at an average density of 1,206.2 per square mile (465.8/km²). The racial makeup of the village was 93.16% White, 1.92% African American, 0.13% Native American, 2.38% Asian, 0.02% Pacific Islander, 1.11% from other races, and 1.27% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 4.13% of the population.
The top five ancestries reported in Tinley Park as of the 2000 census were Irish (25.5%), German (23.1%), Polish (19.9%), Italian (14.3%) and Dutch (5.3%).[10]
There were 17,478 households out of which 36.4% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 61.5% were married couples living together, 8.6% had a female householder with no husband present, and 26.8% were non-families. 23.1% of all households were made up of individuals and 8.7% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.73 and the average family size was 3.27.
In the village the population was spread out with 26.6% under the age of 18, 8.1% from 18 to 24, 31.0% from 25 to 44, 23.5% from 45 to 64, and 10.7% who were 65 years of age or older. The median age was 36 years. For every 100 females there were 93.8 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 90.5 males.
The median income for a household in the village was $61,648, and the median income for a family was $71,858 (these figures had risen to $70,480 and $84,072 respectively as of a 2007 estimate[11]). Males had a median income of $50,595 versus $34,401 for females. The per capita income for the village was $25,207. About 1.1% of families and 2.5% of the population were below the poverty line, including 2.5% of those under age 18 and 3.6% of those age 65 or over.
Tinley Park is divided between three congressional districts. Most of the village, including all the area in Bremen and Rich Townships, is in Illinois' 1st congressional district; the area in Will County is in the 11th district; the area in Orland Township south of 167th Street, as well as most of the area southwest of 163rd Street and Ozark Avenue, is in the 13th district.
Tinley Park includes two public elementary school districts, Kirby School District 140 and Community Consolidated School District 146. The town also includes three parochial Pre-K through 8 elementary schools: St. George, which is Catholic; Trinity Lutheran, affiliated with the LCMS; and Southwest Chicago Christian School of Tinley Park.[12]
Victor J. Andrew High School (Consolidated High School District 230) and Tinley Park High School (Bremen Community High School District 228) are both secondary schools located in Tinley Park. A small portion of Tinley Park students go to Lincoln-Way North High School. Most residents of Tinley Park are located within the residency boundaries for Moraine Valley Community College; the rest reside in the community college district for South Suburban College. A very small portion of Tinley Park goes to Joliet Junior College.

CONTACT: Kim Smith Hicks, (202) 225-3951
Statement of Judiciary Committee Chairman Lamar Smith Hearing on "Medical Liability Reform – Cutting Costs, Spurring Investment, Creating Jobs"
Chairman Smith: The purpose of this hearing is to discuss the need to reduce the waste in our health care system caused by "defensive medicine." This practice occurs when doctors are forced by the threat of lawsuits to conduct tests and prescribe drugs that are not medically required.
According to a Harvard University research study, 40% of medical malpractice lawsuits filed in the United States lack evidence of medical error or any actual patient injury. But because there are so many lawsuits, doctors are forced to conduct medical tests simply to avoid a possible lawsuit.
Taxpayers pay for this wasteful defensive medicine, which adds to all our health care costs without improving the quality of patient care.
A survey released last year found defensive medicine is practiced by nearly all physicians.
President Obama himself acknowledged the harm caused by defensive medicine, stating "I want to work [to] scale back the excessive defensive medicine that reinforces our current system, and shift to a system where we are providing better care, simply -- rather than simply more treatment."
Yet the health care legislation he signed does nothing to prevent defensive medicine. In fact, it makes matters worse by allowing trial lawyers to opt out of any alternatives to health care litigation proposed by the states, and by exposing doctors to even more lawsuits if they fall short of any of the many new federal guidelines the law creates.
The encouragement of lawsuit abuse will not only make medical care much more expensive; it will drive more doctors out of business.
The Judiciary Committee will consider alternative health care lawsuit reforms modeled on California's reforms, which have been in effect for over 30 years. Those reforms have a proven record of reducing defensive medicine, reducing health care costs, and increasing the supply of doctors.
There is a clear need for reform at the federal level. Many State supreme courts have nullified reasonable litigation management provisions enacted by State legislatures. In such States, passage of federal legislation by Congress may be the only means of addressing the State's current crisis in medical professional liability and restoring patients' access to quality health care.
Further, federal legislation is needed to stem the flow of doctors from one state to another, as they flee states to avoid excessive liability costs. Doctors should feel free to practice medicine wherever they want, and patients everywhere should be able to obtain the medical care they need.
Last year, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) determined that a legal reform package modeled on Republican-supported reforms would reduce the federal budget deficit by an estimated $54 billion over the next 10 years—and that was a conservative estimate.
Another CBO report estimates that "under [Republican-proposed reforms], premiums for medical malpractice insurance ultimately would be an average of 25 percent to 30 percent below what they would be under current law."
The Government Accountability Office (GAO) has found that rising litigation awards are responsible for skyrocketing medical professional liability premiums. Its report states that "GAO found that losses on medical malpractice claims – which make up the largest part of insurers' costs – appear to be the primary driver of rate increases in the long run ..."
The GAO also concluded that insurer profits "are not increasing, indicating that insurers are not charging and profiting from excessively high premium rates."
The National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, which was created by President Obama, also supports health care litigation reform in its 2010 report:
Many members of the Commission also believe that we should impose statutory caps on punitive and non-economic damages, and we recommend that Congress consider this approach and evaluate its impact.
As a USA Today editorial concluded, "one glaring omission" from the Democrats' health care law "was significant tort reform, which was opposed by trial lawyers.
I look forward to hearing from our witnesses today, who will help us assess the nature of the current health care litigation crisis.

Who Killed Jesus?
"In its effect upon the life of the Jewish people," declares Jerusalem rabbi Eliezar Berkovits, "Christianity's New Testament has been the most dangerous anti-Semitic tract in history." His opinion is shared by a growing number of Christian theologians, many of whom are calling for editorial exclusion of all "anti-Jewish" sections of the New Testament, particularly in John's gospel. The publicity-conscious group of scholars known as the Jesus Seminar now declares that all passages in the Gospels that claim the Jews were at least partly responsible for the Crucifixion are not authentic and should be removed from the New Testament.
Such revisionism reached a new extreme at a conference held at Oxford in September 1989, when A. Roy Eckardt, emeritus professor at Lehigh University in Pennsylvania, suggested that Christians ought to abandon the resurrection of Jesus, since it "remains a primordial and unceasing source of the Christian world's anti-Judaism."
Strangely, too many Christian theologians seem silent in the face of such broadsides against the faith. It is high time to return to the historical record.
The question of Jewish involvement in the arrest and judicial process against Jesus of Nazareth in that first "Holy Week" continues to percolate through many strata in the debate between Christians, Jews, and New Testament scholars. Probably no issue in the history of religion has elicited more blind partisanship, misinterpretation, faulty logic, hostility, or fad following. Whenever the discussion seems shelved for the moment, it reappears each decade with the Oberammergau Passion play. Once again, charges of anti-Semitism have been raised against the script of the 1990 production.
The nature of the prosecution before Pontius Pilate—and the issue of moral responsibility for what took place in that most famous of trials—has been argued on a spectrum ranging from the medievalist notion of Jewish collective responsibility (all Jews, then and now, deemed "guilty" of Jesus' death) to the current theological opinion, increasingly de rigueur, that no Jews then (or, obviously, since) were involved in Good Friday. The Gospels are styled "anti-Semitic" in the latter view for having portrayed a Jewish prosecution.
The theological pendulum has swung from one illogical—indeed, ridiculous—concept to another, from assuming Jewish generic involvement, to arguing for no involvement at all, which is understandable emotionally but not justified historically. A careful interpretation of the New Testament records, supplemented by crucial nonbiblical sources, suggests a solution that Christians and Jews alike should find not only historically accurate, but congenial. What are the questions that move us toward a solution?
All Jews involved?
The concept of Jewish collective responsibility for Good Friday sprang from a misinterpretation of Matthew 27:25 ("His blood be on us and on our children!") as well as the rupture between Judaism and Christianity in the early church.
But Matthew's text proves nothing, since there is no record of God endorsing the curse, and God, after all, is the only one whose curse would mean anything. As a rabbi once put it to me (with good humor): "Even if God had agreed to curse us on that occasion, his divine anger would have been limited to the third or fourth generation, and then the rest of us would have been free of it!"
With the final separation of church and synagogue, however, Jews were progressively deemed "guilty" for Good Friday. Later church fathers were less inclined to dispute misinterpretations of the Matthew passage. But did the church also tamper with history in reporting the trial before Pilate? Yes, according to the current revisionist view. They allegedly did so to aid the spreading of the faith in Rome.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Los Angeles police say four suspects have been arrested in Las Vegas in the slayings of four people who were found dead in front of an unlicensed boarding house.
Police Chief Charlie Beck said at a news conference Tuesday that the four were arrested at the Silverton Hotel in Las Vegas.
Two men and two women were found fatally shot on a front lawn Sunday after police received a 911 call that led them to a large house in Northridge. Three of the bodies were found face-down.

Amniocentesis is a procedure used to diagnose fetal defects in the early second trimester of pregnancy. A sample of the amniotic fluid, which surrounds a fetus in the womb, is collected through a pregnant woman's abdomen using a needle and syringe. Tests performed on fetal cells found in the sample can reveal the presence of many types of genetic disorders, thus allowing doctors and prospective parents to make important decisions about early treatment and intervention.
Since the mid-1970s, amniocentesis has been used routinely to test for Down syndrome, by far the most common, nonhereditary, genetic birth defect, afflicting about one in every 1, 000 babies. By 1997, approximately 800 different diagnostic tests were available, most of them for hereditary genetic disorders such as Tay-Sachs disease, sickle cell anemia, hemophilia, muscular dystrophy and cystic fibrosis.
Amniocentesis, often called amnio, is recommended for women who will be older than 35 on their due-date. It is also recommended for women who have already borne children with birth defects, or when either of the parents has a family history of a birth defect for which a diagnostic test is available. Another reason for the procedure is to confirm indications of Down syndrome and certain other defects which may have shown up previously during routine maternal blood screening.
The risk of bearing a child with a nonhereditary genetic defect such as Down syndrome is directly related to a woman's age—the older the woman, the greater the risk. Thirty-five is the recommended age to begin amnio testing because that is the age at which the risk of carrying a fetus with such a defect roughly equals the risk of miscarriage caused by the procedure—about one in 200. At age 25, the risk of giving birth to a child with this type of defect is about one in 1, 400; by age 45 it increases to about one in 20. Nearly half of all pregnant women over 35 in the United States undergo amniocentesis and many younger women also decide to have the procedure. Notably, some 75% of all Down syndrome infants born in the United States each year are to women younger than 35.
One of the most common reasons for performing amniocentesis is an abnormal alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) test. Alpha-fetoprotein is a protein produced by the fetus and present in the mother's blood. A simple blood screening, usually conducted around the 15th week of pregnancy, can determine the AFP levels in the mother's blood. Levels that are too high or too low may signal possible fetal defects. Because this test has a high false-positive rate, another test such as amnio is recommended whenever the AFP levels fall outside the normal range.
Amniocentesis is generally performed during the 16th week of pregnancy, with results usually available within three weeks. It is possible to perform an amnio as early as the 11th week but this is not usually recommended because there appears to be an increased risk of mis-carriage when done at this time. The advantage of early amnio and speedy results lies in the extra time for decision making if a problem is detected. Potential treatment of the fetus can begin earlier. Important, also, is the fact that elective abortions are safer and less controversial the earlier they are performed.

Exploring employment options and making decisions about your career are some of the most important things to consider as you are planning your future.
Knowing your employment options allows you to make rational, informed decisions, should an employment situation no longer meet your needs. The keys will be:
- Flexibility and creativity to make adaptations in the way you do your job.
- Willingness to seek accommodations.
- Interest in changing the type of work you do, if necessary.
- Openness to taking on the challenge of training or education.
No one is saying that these decisions will come easy. Work defines our self-image. When asked about ourselves, we often say, "I am a carpenter, teacher, accountant, etc." Work is a big part of defining who we are, our role in our community, and how others view us.
When it comes down to it, the decision is yours and yours alone — you know yourself and your situation better than anyone else. Be clear with yourself about what your options are and take the path that works best for you. Be informed about your ADA rights and workplace accommodations, deciding to work or not, employment strategies, symptom management on the job, and information to share with your employer.
Resources for Career Changers
Making a career change can be a complex and time consuming process. Where to start, what to do, what career is right for you? However it can be time well spent if the outcome leads to finding rewarding work. For most people there is more than one career alternative so choices and priorities must be based on an assessment of skills, interests, values, strengths, and opportunities. You need to take time to look at who you are, what you've done, where you'd like to go and what you need to do to get there.

I deliberately didn't answer as I leave the addons forums to others better suited
Seems like a fair way to do it, have a feedback sticky in the editing section once the Alpha is released and we get an idea of the possibilities. In truth, untill then any discussion/requests are perhaps rather fruitless given that there's every chance it has already been implemented. I guess we, like most modders, all have some little part of the engine, a 'missing' command or check, that we'd hope could be addressed at each new ArmA, hence jumping the gun a little.
Put them in the (A3) CIT
Thread subscription emails stopped!
Hmm, just checked and the cage with the two hamsters used for this is empty. No idea who removed them and for what purpose...
We'll see if we can get new ones real quick.
Thanks W. It is so hard finding good hamster these days.
With this announcement, surely this rule:
(bold part) is now out of date?§8) Post in the right forum & right thread
Please ensure you make new threads in the correct forum, if you're unsure of which forum to post in feel free to ask a moderator. If a thread exists for the topic you wish to post about you must use it, for example all ACE questions belong in the ACE thread. All addon/mod questions belong in the thread for that addon/mod. In the case of DayZ discussions they should be posted on the DayZ forums, this includes problems with the Modification. The troubleshooting forum is not for problems with Addons and Mods!
Not really, we need to figure out the best way for everyone involved to integrate the various forums, the DayZ website/forums will stay where they are and primary discussions should be on there because that's the best place suited, maybe similar to how VBS is handled here, a news thread with discussion but any in depth and/or technical discussion should be done on the DayZ forums.

I think there is a general desire to talk DayZ topics though, I know a lot of people simply wish to trash it but there are some real discussions also. It seems a shame that there is no way to sensibly discuss the most popular mod, soon to become an official release, on the game's own forums
To be honest, the DayZ forums are a bit of a zoo. I'd much prefer to discuss it here.

I need to find a Nose Fly Mask....Something that goes around the horses muzzle WHILE riding. My gelding is super sensitive to bugs around his nose when riding. And I want to make him more comfortable. You might have seen John Anderson use one on one of his mares(shes a bay) at Spruce Meadows. That is the type of "nose fly mask" i'm looking for. Thanks everyone.

Tigers' second-half rally falls short in NCAA loss to 15th-ranked Warhawks
March 3, 2006
March 3, 2006, Whitewater, Wis. - The DePauw men's basketball team battled 15th-ranked Wisconsin-Whitewater to a tight game throughout, but came out on the losing end of a 76-68 decision in the NCAA Division III opening round matchup at Kachel Gym.
The host Warhawks led by as many as 15 in the first half at 28-13 and still held a 36-25 halftime lead. DePauw still trailed by 12 at 46-34 before Mike Moore and Alex Stewart hit three-pointers to close the gap to 46-40. The Tigers closed the margin to three on a couple of occasions and still trailed by just six with less than two minutes to play, but Anthony Mlachnik's tip-in and Jeremy Manchester's two free throws put the game away. Stewart led the Tigers with 19, while Stephen Schott added 11. Melvin Williams led Whitewater with 16, while Mlachinik and Rob Perry each scored 15 and Mike Toellner added 14. The Warhawks shot 50 percent for the game, while the Tigers hit 41.9 percent. DePauw knocked down six of its 3 second-half three-point attempts and were nine-of-21 for the contest. DePauw held a narrow 33-32 edge on the boards with Austin Brown leading the way with eight. Andy Freund paced Whietwater with six. Moore dished out a game-high six assists in the loss. The Tigers finish the season at 15-13 including a Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference title, while the Warhawks improved to 23-5 and advanced to the second round to face Illinois Wesleyan which defeated Carroll (Wis.), 81-68.

Your child is going home on total parenteral nutrition (TPN). TPN is a way for your child to get proper nutrition through a small, soft tube called a catheter. The catheter is inserted into a vein. This allows liquid nutrition to be put into your child's blood vessels. You were shown how to give your child TPN before your child was discharged from the hospital. This sheet can help you remember those steps when you and your child are at home. Arrangements may also be made for a home health nurse to help you at home.
NOTE: Your child may receive TPN a different way from what is described and shown here. Always follow the instructions given by your child's health care provider or home health nurse. Also, make sure you have the phone number for your child's medical supply company. You'll need to order more supplies for your child in the future. Write all of these phone numbers below.
Health care provider phone number: __________________________________
Home health nurse phone number: __________________________________
Medical supply company phone number: ______________________________
There are two types of IV lines used to give nutrition through a catheter:
Central line: This kind of line is often used for infants and very young children. The catheter is placed into a vein in the neck or chest. This allows nutrients to be delivered to the large blood vessels leading into the heart.
Peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) line: This type of line is placed into a vein in your child's arm. The line is gently threaded through the vein up to one of the large blood vessels leading into the heart.
Your child is given TPN using an infusion pump. Depending on your child's needs, TPN is given continuously or for a set amount of hours throughout the day. Do not change the settings on the pump unless you're instructed to do so.
Sterile gloves
Alcohol wipes
Saline (single-use vials)
Heparin (single-use vials)
25-gauge needle (may not be needed if you have blunt-end syringes)
10 cc/ml syringes
TPN bag
IV tubing
IV pole
Infusion pump
Puncture-proof sharps container to dispose of used needles
Clean your workarea.
Wash your hands with soap and water.
Clean your work area with alcohol. Dry with a clean cloth or paper towel.
Wash your hands with soap and water again.
Put on sterile gloves before touching any supplies.
Check the TPN bag.
Check the label on the TPN bag to make sure it matches your child's prescription.
Check the expiration date. Don't use the solution if it's expired. Instead, get a new bag.
Check the bag for problems, such as leaks, cloudiness, or floating particles. Don't use the bag if you see any of these. Instead, get a new bag.
Allow the TPN solution to warm up by leaving it at room temperature for 60 minutes. If you need to warm the solution quickly, put the bag in the sink and run warm (not hot) water over it. Do not try to warm up the bag in the microwave.
Place the TPN bag on the clean surface in your work area.
Prepare the TPN bag.
Add any additional medications or vitamins to the bag (as you were shown in the hospital).
Hang the TPN bag on the IV pole.
Clamp the IV tubing.
Connect the spiked end of the IV tubing to the TPN bag.
Loop the IV tubing over the pole again to prevent the end from touching the floor.
Slowly open the clamp on the IV tubing. Let a small amount of TPN solution run out the end of the tubing. This clears air out of the tubing and prevents air from entering the IV line.
Close the clamp on the IV tubing.
Make sure the pump is in the STOP/OFF mode.
Load the IV tubing into the pump.
Connect the TPN bag with the IV tubing to the port on the end of the catheter.
Prepare the syringe for flushing the catheter.
If you're using pre-filled saline or heparin syringes, skip this step and move to the next section on flushing the catheter.
Clean the rubber top of the saline vial with an alcohol wipe.
You may be using either a syringe with a needle or a syringe with a blunt end tip. Attach the needle or blunt end tip to the syringe at this time. Be careful not to touch the opening at the bottom of the needle, the blunt end tip, or the tip of the syringe. Remove the needle cap, if needed.
Fill the syringe with 10 cc/ml of air for the saline flush.
Stick the needle or blunt end tip of the syringe into the rubber top of the saline vial. Push air into the vial.
With the needle or blunt end tip of the syringe still in the vial, turn the vial upside down.
Pull back the plunger to withdraw 10 cc/ml of saline.
Be sure to keep the needle or blunt end tip of the syringe below the fluid level.
Check for air bubbles. Hold the syringe straight up and tap the barrel of the syringe. The bubbles should go to the top of the syringe. Gently, push the plunger to remove any air bubbles. Draw back if more saline is needed in the syringe.
Put the syringe and vial down on your clean work surface.
Flushingthe catheter.
Clean the port on the end of the catheter with an alcohol wipe.
Remove the needle or blunt end tip at this time. Discard the needle or blunt end tip in the sharps container.
Connect the syringe to the injection port.
Push the plunger slowly and gently, so that the saline goes into the port. Check that there's no resistance.
Disconnect the syringe.
Clean the port again with an alcohol wipe.
Connect the TPN bag to start infusion.
Connect the IV tubing from the TPN bag to the port on the end of the catheter.
Open the clamp on the IV tubing.
Turn the pump to START/ON.
Disconnect the TPN bag after infusion.
Wash your hands with soap and water. Put on a new pair of sterile gloves.
Turn the pump to STOP/OFF.
Disconnect the IV tubing from the port.
Clean the port with an alcohol wipe.
Repeat the steps above ("Prepare the syringe" and "Flush the catheter") to prepare separate syringes with saline and heparin, and to flush the catheter.
Discard any used syringes in the sharps container.
Loop and tape your child's catheter to the chest or arm as instructed by your child's healthccare provider.
Additional instructions: ________________________________________________________________
The tubing splits or leaks or comes out partway or all the way
There is pain, drainage, redness, swelling, or bleeding at the catheter site.
In an infant under 3 months old, a rectal temperature of 100.4°F (38.0°C) or higher
In a child 3 to 36 months, a rectal temperature of 102°F (39.0°C) or higher

Judging Yourself By What Others Think Of You
Sociology makes my heart skip a beat -- a strange declaration, indeed. The reason why I chose sociology over psychology, although the two are ever-intertwined in the world of clinical social work, is because of the impact society, social relationships, and social roles have on our every day lives. We do not live in a vacuum of rugged individualism, but rather, we live in concert with our social environments, each layer building on the other to create the whole person. The more we understand this fact, the easier it will be to create lasting change at the macro level that will trickle down to us as individuals in the micro level (the way it should be).
The more time goes on, the more I see myself going on for my Ph.D. in medical sociology to study, teach, and do research on the psychological and social impact of illness and disability, including stigma, stress, spirituality, social roles, etc…The man who stole my heart (besides for my dad and Pat) is Erving Goffman, a large contributor to social theory in the form of symbolic interaction and the dramaturgical perspective. Basically, he studied social stress, stigma, and the impressions we give off to others, as well as the way we view others viewing us. Prevalent in today's spiritually hungry society, we decide how we feel about ourselves by the way others view us. NOT GOOD. Instead of going inward to solve our dilemmas, we look outward – sometimes, to people we don't even know or care about. When you think about it, does it make much sense to judge ourselves in this way? No, not at all, and Goffman creates the opportunity for you to notice these interactions in your every day lives.
I can go into more detail if anyone is interested.
Anywho, I need to run. Off to get acupuncture and start my other hormones!
Happy Healing!

Maria, could you share a list of, say, your top 5 fave books for wellness (all levels)? You seem like a fellow bookworm, and I'd love to know your recs. Hope your pain has abated a bit today, my friend.

Maria, I've still been reading every post and praying for you like crazy. How are you feeling today?
Sociology is so interesting. I know you can become a PhD, you have such a stron passion for learning and enthusiasm for knowledge. Every goal you set is fair game with your mental strength.
Good luck with accu. and hormones today, I'm still praying!

This post is really thought provoking. It's so true, why do we let others dictate our perceptions of ourselves? Why can others control who we are, when we know our own selves best? The timing of this post is ironic, since I just had a fight with a friend because I'm realizing she basically makes me feel worthless most of the time :(
Hope you're feeling okay today! xoxo - January 25, 2010 at 8:19 AM

Loved this post. I recognize that I do this a lot! I hate it that I worry or think about what others think. I have done it since I was a little girl. I am getting better with age, but it is still hard sometimes.

- Kerrilynn said...
Maria, you and I are so much alike it's a little scary! Haha! I think it's wonderful that you are thinking of pursuing a PhD and medical sociology would be great for you. Have you thought about patient advocacy? It's a field I was considering, and still think about. My problem is that I have SO MANY ideas and aspirations that I find it difficult to focus on just one area! Anyway, I love you and thank you for leaving such kind and loving words on my blog! I'm always thinking of you! Happy Healing!

I have been thinking a lot about this topic lately! Especially in relation to online interaction and friendships. I wrote a post today that echos a bit of what you're saying here...we all need to take responsiblity for how we feel and our own happiness, society is never going to just hand that over. Great post! ;D

I was wondering if you could also post some of your favorite books about cognitive-behavioral therapy. Especially something that would be a workbook type of thing or something that explains it, the steps, etc.

Broccoli may be a health-food cliché, but it rocks in terms of nutrition, containing everything from vitamins C, K, and A to potassium, iron, magnesium, and even calcium.

Brave New Climate is a blog on climate science and low-carbon energy options, run by scientist and university professor, Dr. Barry W. Brook.
Barry is a leading environmental researcher, modeller, data analyst and author, in the fields of ecology, conservation biology, palaeoenvironmental reconstruction, and sustainable energy systems. He is employed at the University of Adelaide's Environment Institute, where he holds the Sir Hubert Wilkins Chair of Climate Change in the School of Earth and Environmental Sciences and is also a member of the Center for Energy Technology. He has published three books, over 200 refereed scientific papers, is a highly cited researcher, and regularly writes popular articles for the media and public policy documents.
He has received a number of distinguished awards for his research excellence and public outreach, including the Australian Academy of Science Fenner Medal and the 2010 Community Science Educator of the Year. His research interests are climate change impacts, species extinctions, simulation and statistical modelling, energy systems analysis (with a focus on modelling future nuclear and large-scale renewable energy scenarios), and synergistic human impacts on the biosphere.
Author of a popular book on sustainable nuclear energy, Barry is an International Award Committee member for the Global Energy Prize, a 2012 Senior Fellow at the Breakthrough Institute, and considers himself a 'Promethean environmentalist'. Prometheans are realists who shun romantic notions that modern governments might guide society back to an era when people lived simpler lives, or that a vastly less consumption-oriented world is a possibility. The goal is simple to understand but difficult to implement — developing real-world, high-capacity and cost-effective solutions to environmental challenges – such as nuclear power and other techno-fixes – which history has shown to be reliable and timely.
For more on his climate science qualifications and research interests, read this post.
Effective communication of the science of climate change is fundamental to providing policy makers with the type of evidence required to institute meaningful mitigation policy and to understand available adaptation options. It is this imperative that has led Barry to take an active leadership role in the communication of the science of global change to government, industry and the community (directly, via public lectures and workshops and advisory committees, and indirectly via the media – including television, radio, the print media and popular science articles).

BACKGROUND: Singing Coach software teaches how to sing or improve singing ability, and may even help children with cochlear implants improve their speaking skills.
HOW IT WORKS: The software includes a vocal range analyzer and a pitch tracking line that gives real-time feedback on singers' performances as they sing. This enables them to hear, note for note, exactly where their pitch, rhythm and tempo need to be corrected. The software is easy to install and requires no previous musical training or experience to use. It comes with 20 singing lessons and a high-fidelity headset with a built-in microphone for hands-free singing. At the end of each performance, the software "scores" the singer. Once a skill is mastered, the program graduates the singer to the next level. A more advanced version, Singing Coach Unlimited, offers access to more than 10,000 songs and also allows singers to compose their own songs, and compete with friends to see who can get the highest score.
WHAT IS PITCH: Sound waves are pressure waves. A vibrating object creates a disturbance in the surrounding air, much like a stone cast in a quiet pond will cause waves to ripple outward from the spot where the stone hit. All sound waves have wavelength and frequency. Objects that vibrate very quickly create short wavelengths and a high-pitched sound. Objects that vibrate very slowly create long wavelengths and a low-pitched sound. Frequency measures the speed of vibration in a unit called a Hertz (Hz), and 1 Hz is equivalent to 1 vibration per second. Pluck a string on a guitar, and it might vibrate 500 times per second, so the sound wave's frequency would be 500 Hertz. Pitch simply denotes those frequencies within the range of human hearing (from about 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz). The faster the rate of vibration, the higher the pitch; the slower the rate of vibration, the lower the pitch.
PITCH PERFECT: Perfect, or absolute, pitch includes two separate skills: the ability to name a musical tone once it is heard, and the ability to sing a named tone on command. It is sometimes confused with relative pitch: the ability to sing or play accurately given a starting note.
WHERE TO FIND IT: Singing Coach retails for $49.95; the Unlimited version retails for $99.95. Both are Windows-compatible and available at CompUSA, Fry's Electronics, J&R Music World, selected Target Stores, or by calling 1-888-378-5050. More information can be found online at www.carryatune.com.

behind the frames, betsey chic, betsey era, betsey johnson, budding beauty, cat-eye, Espresso, eyewear, Inda Muntu, lime green, my favorite frame, optical, Oxford Street, rosie rosebud
We are excited to start a new series bringing you behind-the-frames called "My Favorite Frames." We have invited our own team members to talk about their favorite frames. We've left it up to them – they can choose optical or sun, new or old, bold or subdued. Be sure to check back to see which styles are most popular here at 1140 Broadway.
Inda Muntu, one of our go-to Customer Service specialists, models her favorite pair of eyewear – an oldie but a goodie – the Betsey Johnson Oxford Street. Her preferred color is the Espresso. We asked Inda why she chose this frame and here is her reply:
First and foremost, I love the cat-eye style. I think it fits well and is a flattering shape in general. I also love the colorway – the espresso front makes it wearable but the lime green adds a nice pop of color. Betsey Johnson is always experimenting with interesting color combinations which I appreciate. This particular frame matches a lot of stuff without being boring and, since it's unique, I don't feel like I am wearing the same frame as every other person on the street.
Editor's note: A special thanks to Inda for agreeing to be our first subject in this new series! Be on the lookout monthly for more "My Favorite Frame" entries over the next few weeks. If you are looking for similar styles to Oxford Street, we suggest Betsey Era, Chic, Budding Beauty, or Rosie Rosebud.

WASHINGTON—The number of new unemployment claims dropped last week, a possible reflection of volatile figures that are typically reported toward the end of the year.
Dow Jones Newswires Managing Editor Michael Casey joins the News Hub to report on the initial jobless claims and the ECB leaving rates unchanged. Photo: AP Images.
Jobless claims decreased by 25,000 to a seasonally adjusted 370,000 in the week ended Dec. 1, the Labor Department said Thursday. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones Newswires expected 375,000 claims.
Real Time Economics
The four-week moving average, which smooths out shifts in weekly data, increased by 2,250 to 408,000.
A Labor Department analyst said the weekly numbers around this time of year are hard to read into because non-seasonally adjusted data are particularly volatile as the year ends and industries like construction and agriculture have planned layoffs.
The analyst said there were "no apparent impacts" from superstorm Sandy, which had affected the data in recent weeks after businesses in the Northeast were forced to close temporarily or permanently.
For the week ended Nov. 24, new jobless claims were upwardly revised to 395,000 from the previously reported 393,000.
The numbers come a day before the Labor Department is scheduled to release its monthly employment report. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones Newswires expect that the U.S. added just 80,000 jobs last month, but see the unemployment rate holding steadying at 7.9%. The economy has added an average of 170,000 jobs a month from August through October. However, economists expect a much smaller gain in November, due in part to the effects of superstorm Sandy.
Thursday's unemployment claims data showed the number of continuing unemployment benefit claims—those drawn by workers for more than a week—fell by 100,000 to 3,205,000 in the week ended Nov. 24. Continuing claims are reported with a one-week lag.
The number of workers requesting unemployment insurance was equivalent to 2.5% of employed workers paying into the system in the week ended Nov. 24.
The Labor Department report on jobless claims can be accessed at: http://www.dol.gov/opa/media/press/eta/ui/current.htm.

My Profile
The Orange County, CA-based punk-rap outfit Zebrahead was formed in 1996 by vocalist/guitarist Justin Mauriello, guitarist Greg Bergdorf, bassist Ben Osmundson, and drummer Ed Udhus. Inspired by acts including Fugazi and the Descendents, the group found themselves uninspired by the local trend toward ska-punk and instead began incorporating elements of hip-hop into their sound, eventually recruiting rapper Ali Tabatabaee to join their ranks. After issuing the EP Yellow on the indie label Dr. Dream in May 1998, Zebrahead signed to major label Columbia to release their full-length debut, Waste of Mind, which appeared later that same year. Playmate of the Year was issued in mid-2000 and the Stupid Fat Americans EP followed only in Japan the next year. The guys headed over to Europe with Green Day to support the records, playing various festival dates as well. Throughout the years, they also shared gigs with bands like Less Than Jake, Kottonmouth Kings, 311, Reel Big Fish, and Goldfinger. The full-length MFZB (aka "Motherf*cking Zebrahead B**ch!") appeared in 2003, after which Mauriello exited the group to pursue other interests. His departure distressed fans, as the singing/rapping dynamic between him and Tabatabaee was crucial to the band's sound. However, Zebrahead was soon back in action with the addition of new vocalist/guitarist Matty Lewis to their lineup (who sounded remarkably like Mauriello). They spent summer 2006 on the Warped Tour as Broadcast to the World was released overseas that July through SPV/Sony. The album went gold in Japan in just a month's time, and the guys spent fall on dates throughout Europe. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi
First song I ever heard by Zebrahead: Mental Health First song I get on pandora: Mental Health. Pandroa knows me so well! :D
alexshannon9 7
I got myself a Crush 40 station and it's got His World Crush 40 on it but I had to MANUALLY add Zebrahead to the station? DAYUM.
Zebrahead was my first station on Pandora. And they only have 412 likes? Ommgg.... disappointed . .
The bio really needs to be updated...
Whatever, I'm happy to have one of my favorite bands on Pandora.
Whatever, I'm happy to have one of my favorite bands on Pandora.
If you like Zebrahead, look for a band called Jank1000...i t was Matty Lewis' first band. ;-)
Phoenix, Broadcast, and MFZB were all awesome. Waste of Mind was pretty good too. Playmate was the worst IMO, and I didn't like Get Nice! at first, but I LOVE like 5 of the songs now instead of only 2. The band is amazing, and this type of pop-punk rock that throws flavor and freestyle in is rare now. Less Than Jake comes to mind, as do The Offspring and Blink, but I can't really think of others... That's a very short list.
I prefer Broadcast, tbh.
I think Phoenix and MFZB are definitely their best (Phoenix being the best)... But everyone will have different opinions based on the first time they heard them. Before you act like the old albums were the REAL band stuff (besides the fact Ali was there), think about how the BAND feels about their new stuff. Do you think it's not as good because it's newer? Hell no, lol. It doesn't make any of you guys cooler because you liked a band early on in their career---ban d s keep playing to improve and d
You know, after hearing all of their albums, I really have to say that MFZB is their best work.
these guy's got famous with this one song rescue me after that they kinda fell away from mainstream after they announced they where gonna break up and i forgot about them until sonic crazy hu
his world never comes up on my station
His World is amazing!
i had waste of m ind and playmate, saw them play once too. haven't listened to them in several years though. "get back" was my favorite song.
ikr zebrahead rox and i also like three days grace and lost prophits my fave song by lost prophits is rooftops and its my ringtone :)
The album to listen to is, "MFZB". It's probably my fave album. Of course, their older stuff is better, "Broadcast.. " was a pretty great follow up, but also introduced Matty. Justin was a great vocalist, mainly because he had a different sound, he could hit those high notes pretty well, Matty has trouble with that at times. "Hellow Tomorrow" is a great example, i believe. Been a huge ZH fan ever since i first heard "Waste of Mind". I have 2 ZH tats and dont plan on giving up on them. MFZB!
they kick motherf**kin g a**!!! in escence i guess theyre kinda like a way better linkin park that isnt as popular and ovverated... but LP's still good... just not as good as zebrahead.
Zebrahead is way the f**k better than all those cookie cutter bands that just churn out more of the same schlock year after year. Zebrahead had the balls to combine rap and punk into a blast of punk that gets all up in your face with it's rightious anger. Great s**t.
Mother F**king Zebrahead B**ches!!!!! But this band is way the f**k better than SR-71.
What the heck... I can't find His World here!
Over the last 10 years you can see how the band has changed their style with each album. They are all solid!
I saw these guys play a Highschool in Jackson Hole with 311 once. I liked them when I first heard Waste of Mind, but that live show really made me a fan. I still like them 10 years later
these guys are great live, seen them like 7 times now.
awesome band.. bio and discography forgot an album though... Waste of MFZB. last album with justin still in the band.

I kind of can't believe it
I could go on and on (and on and on and on and on) about the idiocy, bigotry, and cronyism in the Idaho legislature, but why belabor the obvious. Rather, I'd like to applaud something they're doing.
The Senate Transportation Committee approved a bill that would allow Idaho drivers to show proof of insurance using images on a smart phone. Brilliant!
Per the blurb in the Statesman, Idaho would be the first state to do so, but only if it beats other state to the punch. It appears this industry sponsored bill is being considered in California, Arizona, and Maryland, and probably elsewhere.

But others soon bridle at the limitations of VFR-only operations when they realize many flights have to be cancelled or delayed because of weather. Often that weather is relatively benign but sufficiently adverse to preclude prudent pilots from venturing aloft under visual flight rules. The instrument rating increases the utility of even the most basically equipped airplanes and eliminates many-although not all-cancellations and delays. Unless you're lucky enough not to be a slave to a schedule, and if you have no intentions of using a general aviation airplane for relatively reliable transportation, then the instrument rating isn't a necessary add-on rating. On the other hand, if you do want to use an airplane for going places, the instrument rating really is a prerequisite.
Learning to fly by reference to the instruments requires three different skills-control of the airplane, the ability to navigate from waypoint to waypoint to the destination, and the competence to communicate effectively. Controlling the airplane under instrument conditions means flying with precision; navigating requires you to know where you are, where you're going and when you're going to get there; and communicating effectively means learning to understand what you're told and being able to express yourself succinctly.
When you first start instrument training you'll be overwhelmed trying to juggle the three skills (aviate, navigate and communicate) but eventually, with practice, it'll all come together.
Controlling the airplane with reference to the instruments requires two things. You have to develop a scan that will let you constantly survey the instruments-concentrating on those that are most useful during the particular phase of flight-and you have to learn to believe what the instruments are telling you.
If you've never seen or been the subject of a spatial disorientation demonstration you may find it difficult to understand how misleading your senses can be. Your instructor will stress that you have to believe what the instruments are telling you and ignore any contrary information from your body. A spatial disorientation demonstration is very persuasive.
Initially, you'll work to refine the instrument skills you had to demonstrate for your private certificate. You'll soon learn which instruments are giving you the information you need during various maneuvers. Don't ignore the value of a desktop simulator or procedures trainer for developing your scan. You'll also learn that there are specific power and pitch (attitude) combinations that always result in the same performance. There will be combinations you'll use for holding patterns, for descent with the gear and flaps extended, and for climbs. In instrument conditions, trim is your friend. Use it. If the airplane is equipped with an autopilot you'll be expected to know how it works and the ways to eliminate it when it's not helping. Be sure your instructor is willing to let you use it. For single-pilot IFR operations in serious instrument conditions, a functioning autopilot is almost a go/no-go item. Once you're comfortable controlling the airplane with reference to the instruments, you'll begin flying approaches. Flying approaches is simply a matter of tightening the tolerances for the four basic maneuvers you've been practicing: straight and level, turns, descents and climbs (for missed approaches). As you fly approaches your navigation skills will improve because of the reduced margins for error allowed during approaches. The instrument ground training should have taught you how to "brief" an approach and how to mine the critical information from the chart that you'll need to fly the approach safely.
When you're first learning, a useful exercise is to either ride in the back while another student flies approaches, or fly them yourself without the view-limiting device so you can see exactly where the approach takes you over the ground. You'll be surprised at the effect that even small control inputs have on your trip along the localizer or down the glideslope. It's one way to see the effect of "chasing the needles" on the approach path. The rule is that if you get a full-scale deflection on either the localizer or the glideslope, you should execute a missed approach and go around. If it becomes obvious sooner that things aren't working out, don't force the issue; plan to arrest your descent and fly the missed approach procedure. But remember the go-around procedure is based on you beginning it from the missed approach point and not before.
