|Assigned Interventions
Experimental: heliox
The patients in this group underwent nebulization with heliox carried by the trunk erect
Other: HELIOX
The nebulization was conducted in the same way that heliox + posture group, except the attitude of trunk, where the patients in this group did the Nebulizer with the trunk upright.
Other Name: asma
Experimental: heliox+posture
The patients in this group carried out the mist carried by heliox and the trunk tilted forward
Other: HELIOX+POSTURE
Patients underwent two carried by heliox nebulization associated with fenoterol (2.5 mg) and ipratropium bromide (0.25 mg). We used three ml of saline solution at 0.9%. For nebulization with heliox or oxygen, was used a system of distribution not invasive, semi-closed in a mask that is non toxic connected to a piece "Y" with a nebulizer in a follow and a bag of tank with a capacity for 2.5 L in the other connected with a valve action. This system was used so that there was a dilution gas. The proportion of 80:20 heliox was used (80% helium: 20% oxygen). To postural change in groups and heliox Oxygen + posture + posture, oriented to the participants to maintain an angle of inclination of the trunk and elbows supported on the thighs, measured from the anterior axillary line and lateral epicondyle of the femur, between 50th and 60th .
Other Names:
Experimental: oxygen+posture
The patients in this group carried out the mist carried by oxygen and the trunk tilted forward
Other: OXYGEN + POSTURE
The NEBULIZATION was conducted in the same way that heliox + posture GROUP, however the patients in this group have the Oxygen for Carr A NEBULIZATION
Other Names:
Active Comparator: oxygen
The patients in this group carried out the mist carried by the oxygen and the trunk upright
Other: OXYGEN
The NEBULIZATION was performed the same way as the heliox group, except for torso posture, where the patients in this group with the trunk upright Nebulizer Oxygen for cars have A NEBULIZATION.

Detailed Description:
When associated with inhaled bronchodilators, the heliox, a mixture of helium and oxygen in obstructive lung diseases with asthma, reduces the turbulence of airflow despite high rates, due to its low density.
Although the first report of the use of heliox in the treatment of asthma dating to 1935, few controlled studies are available clarify the impact of the use of heliox in hospital admission of patients with acute asthma attacks refractory to standard treatment.
The severe airflow obstruction, observed in cases of acute asthma, also leads to lung hyperinflation that favors the increase of respiratory work by increasing the load for the inspiratory muscles by placing them at a mechanical disadvantage.
Various body positions were studied relating them to muscle activity with mechanical disadvantage. These studies suggest that the influence posture acts mainly in the position of the diaphragm, thus, increasing the stress related to other muscles such as the abdominals and the effect of gravity on these.
This study aims to: assess the efficiency of the positioning body associated with nebulization with bronchodilators carried by heliox during acute severe asthma in adults, using as the primary outcomes FEV1, FVC and PEF and secondary outcomes as the Borg scale, inspiratory capacity, RR, HR and SpO2.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years to 65 Years (Adult)
|Sexes Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Inclusion Criteria:

From today's meditation from In Conversation with God:So many people have their own plans for their own wellbeing that only too often they look on God simply as someone who will help them to carry out those same plans. The true state of affairs is quite the opposite. God has his own plans for our happiness, and He is waiting for us to help him accomplish them - and let us be quite clear about it: we cannot improve on God's plans....He arranges everything in such a way as to make detachment … [Read more...]

Asking for Help
A couple of weeks ago, we were having a great discussion about burnout, both with respect to the parents and the children in our families. Many of you made some very thoughtful comments, and I appreciated everyone's honest and encouraging words.One of the comments that struck a particular chord with me was written by Juris Mater, regarding hiring help for Mom:"I have said this before, but I don't think that hiring help should be an upperclass privilege. I think that setting money aside to … [Read more...]

Toddler Busy Work?
My 2.5 year old has recently started asking for "my school work" so that he can earn "my o-puter time". In our house, each child gets 15minutes on PBSkids.org when their seat work is completed. So, I know that for next fall he is going to want to do school, but what can I do with someone so little that will not require constant interaction from mom? I think that 10 minutes would be the max time that he could sit at a desk to do something, right now he does do some montessori-style work but I h … [Read more...]

Commencement Advice
At Princeton's graduation for the Class of 2010, Baccalaureate Speaker Jeff Bezos '86, CEO of Amazon.com asked the class, "Will you be a cynic, or will you be a builder?

The life of a military family is full of ups and downs. Great assignments, tough jobs, deployments, new doctors, packing, moving, friends, family.For the last two years we have been living in a multi-family apartment building in central Germany.

I have a totally unrealistic dream. I imagine me sitting in a chair with an enchanting, living book in hand reading to my three sweet boys who are playing or drawing peacefully and quietly, attentive to the beautiful story, absorbing its language and its richness.

Smackdown- April 22nd 2004
22/04/04; Detroit:
Smackdown video plays
Before Michael Cole can welcome us to the show, Mr. Mc Mahons music plays. The chairman makes his way to the ring with a broad smile. He enters the ring, and talks about the types of matches he may choose for Judgment Day after Lesnar beats Cena tonight. He talks about possibly a Streetfight, maybe Last Man Standing, or maybe even an I Quit match. John Cenas music then interrupts and the Doctor of thuganomics makes his way to the ring. He tells Vince that Brock has to beat him first and then guarantees that Lesnar will not be victorious. The two engage in a bitter war of words before Brock Lesnars music hits the arena. He talks as he walks to the ring as he argues with Cena. Brock enters the ring and he fights with Cena. Vince quickly gets involved and they proceed to dominate Cena. Austins music then hits and he sprints to the ring. But before he can get his hands on McMahon or Lesnar they get out of the ring and leave through the crowd. Austin helps up Cena as we head to a commercial.
1st Match:
Billy Kidman & Jamie Noble vs. Rey Mysterio & Shannon Moore
A typical cruiserweight match with high paced action comes to an end when Kidman tries to hit Mysterio with the belt but Rey counters and drop toe holds the champ into the ropes, and Shannon does the same with Noble. Rey then hits a double 619 and West coast pop to Kidman for the win.
Bret Hart talks with Brock Lesnar and Vince backstage about tonights match and how vital it is that Brock wins.
APA interview. They talk about TWGTT. It is announced that they will challenge them at Judgment Day for the titles. They then send a message by telling them that the two big dumb guys are coming for the titles.
Austin sits in his dressing room with a crate of beer. Cena enters. They share a beer and talk about tonights match.
2nd Match:
Bradshaw w/ Faarooq vs. Charlie Haas w/ Benjamin
Bradshaw dominates Haas for a good four to five minutes. He goes for the clothesline from hell when Shelton pulls out Haas. TWGTT then walk out making Bradshaw the winner via Count out.
Goldberg interview. He tells Brock to listen up. He looks into the camera and says tonight when he Jackhammers 350 pounds of the A-Train tonight he wants Brock to realise his fate will be the exact same come Judgment Day.
We return as we see the APA chasing TWGTT out of the arena.
Benoit interview. He talks about last week and wishes Goldberg best of luck but after Judgment day he will be back on the title hunt.
3rd Match:
Chris Benoit vs. Kurt Angle
In a hard fought 10 minute encounter, Benoit locks in the crossface and Angle looks ready to tap until Chavo pulls the referee out of the ring. Angle taps but the referee obviously doesnt see. An enraged Benoit attacks Chavo on the outside. He then re enters and is rolled up by Angle, who in the process grabs the tights to claim the win. He and Chavo then high tail as Benoit is incensed.
The Rock is sitting in his locker room. He pulls out a guitar to the fans delight. He decides to sing a song:
There is one worse team than the Detroit red wings,
What they need is five scorpion kings.
That advice is free,
But someone tell John Cena he cant see me!!
With that Cena enters the room. The Rock hasnt seen him yet so Cena now begins to rap:
Yo Rock what you been taking?
The red wings are twice as good as any movie youve been making.
Scorpion King wasnt tops,
Itll goes down as one of Americas biggest flops.
You think youre a legend on the guitar
Well you suck so far.
These people want you on a spaceship to Venus,
Only the gay population want to play with your penis.
Cena and Rock go head to head as we cut to another commercial
We return with Benoit walking backstage irate with Angle and Chavo.
4th Match:
Goldberg vs. A-Train
After 3 minutes of an even encounter, Goldberg steps it up a gear and dominates the A-Train. Within two minutes he spears the 350 pounder. They then goes to a camera and shout to Brock, This ones for you Brock!!. He then Jackhammers Train and gets the three count. He then points to the camera and shouts Youre next Brock, youre next!
Josh enters Austins locker room and asks him for an interview. Austin tells him he can have the interview if he can drink a beer in 30 seconds. Matthews tries but makes a wussy effort. Austin laughs and tells him to get out. He is ready to leave and Austin decides to call him back. He tells him that he is sick of being screwed by McMahon and tonight its Stone Colds turn to mess with Vince McMahon as he has got a match that will make Vince crap himself to death. Josh laughs with Austin, then Austin stops. Josh stops as Austin looks at him seriously. Austin then tells Josh that at Judgment Day, Vince McMahon will get vintage Rattlesnake, and thats the bottom line cause Austin 3;16 said so!!
We cut to Vince, who has a rather worried look on his face. It then turns to a smile and then a wicked laugh.
The Rock then goes to Brets office and demands he have a Rock Concert next week for the millions and millions of...of...of all the jabronis who have a pathetic sad life that is in desperation of reviving. Bret likes the idea and says that next week he can have a Rock concert if he wishes. He then reminds Rock that next week Smackdown is in San Jose. Rock rolls his eyes and sighs. He says oh well at least its not Detroit two weeks running! This is followed by a massive boo.
We go to an interview with Brock Lesnar. He says he wasnt all that impressed by Goldbergs victory tonight. He then says he would be impressed if he could beat say the Big Show. He then says that if Goldberg wants to impress him, then he should face Show next week.
We come back with an interview with Hardcore Holly earlier today. He explains why he turned on Zach. He says the WWE is for real athletes and not for circus freaks. He then gives Zach an ultimatum, either leave the WWE or be forced to retire by him.
5th Match:
Kanyon & Eddy Guerrero vs. Chavo Guerrero & Hardcore Holly.
After about five minutes of decent action, Benoit comes through the crowd and attacks Chavo resulting in a DQ. Angle run down in a bid to help Chavo, but he is cut off by Eddy. Big Show then runs down and choke slams Kanyon to hell. Holly helps Angle and Chavo in a 3 on 2 assault until Gowen takes Hardcore by surprise with a steel chair. Benoit and Guerrero then take over Kurt and Chavo. They stand tall and shake hands.
Backstage, Goldberg is asked by Rue if he heard Brock earlier. He says he did and he doesnt want to impress Lesnar he wants to scare him. He then says he will face Big Show next week, and he will give him a jackhammer. Bret interrupts. He says the match next week is on, but tonight he wont be sticking around as there is a taxi waiting for him outside. He then tells Goldberg not to come back tonight to interfere, and if he does he can forget the title shot at Judgment Day.
Austin makes his way backstage. He is stopped by Lesnar. They look each other in the eye and Lesnar laughs. He says tonight he plans on putting the first nail in Austins coffin.
We return with a preview of next weeks show, Goldberg - Big Show, and also the Rock Concert 3.
Goldberg leaves in his taxi.
Main Event:
To determine type of match for McMahon - Austin at Judgment Day.
Brock Lesnar
(representing Vince Mc Mahon )
John Cena
(representing Stone Cold Steve Austin )
After a brilliant 18 minutes of a back and forth wrestling match, Lesnar counters and attempted suplex into an F5. He gets the cover, but Cena kicks out at two. Lesnar cants believe it. He goes for another, but Cena fights out and then hits an FU. Lesnar gets his foot on the rope. Meanwhile, the camera cuts backstage where both McMahon and Austin are watching in separate rooms. We come back as the two get back to their feet. Brock shoves Cena into the referee and KOs the ref. He goes for another F5 but again Cena fights out. He hits a belly to belly on Lesnar, and then gets his steel chain. He lines up to hit Brock and as he bounces off the ropes to hit him with the chain, The Rock shows up ringside and trips him. Cena gets back up and goes for The Rock who is standing on the apron. Rock jumps off and distracts Cena long enough for Brock to recover and go to the outside to grab the title belt. He nails Cena in the back of the head with it, and finishes him with an F5. Brock wins. Rock and Lesnar then double team Cena. Austin runs down the ramp and chases both Lesnar and Rock out of the ring. McMahons music hits and Vince appears on the ramp. He tells Austin he will not leave him waiting to find out their match. He then says he has thought hard and long over the last week. He knows a brutal match, like a Cage Match or a No holds barred match would favour Austin, so he has had to think of a match which favours him, and he has. He says that at Judgment Day, Austin will face Judge, Jury and Executioner. He smiles as Austin looks puzzled. He then explains, telling Austin that the judge will be special guest referee Bret Hitman Hart, the jury will be a number of Lumberjacks as chosen by Vince, and the executioner of course is Vincent Kennedy McMahon!!! Vince has a wicked smile on his face as Cole and Tazz talk about how Austin is fighting insurmountable odds at Judgment Day, and this could well be the end of the Stone Cold era.....

Quick GuideFemale Sexual Dysfunction: Treatment for Women's Sexual Disorders
How Do Sexual Problems Affect Women?
The most common problems related to sexual dysfunction in women include:
- Inhibited sexual desire: This involves a lack of sexual desire or interest in sex. Many factors can contribute to a lack of desire, including hormonal changes, medical conditions and treatments (for example cancer and chemotherapy), depression, pregnancy, stress, and fatigue. Boredom with regular sexual routines also may contribute to a lack of enthusiasm for sex, as can lifestyle factors, such as careers and the care of children.
- Inability to become aroused:
For women, the inability to become physically aroused during sexual activity often involves insufficient vaginal lubrication. The inability to become aroused also may be related to anxiety or inadequate stimulation. In addition, researchers are investigating how blood flow problems affecting the vagina and clitoris may contribute to arousal problems.
This is the absence of sexual climax (orgasm). It can be caused by sexual inhibition, inexperience, lack of knowledge, and psychological factors such as guilt, anxiety, or a past sexual trauma or abuse. Other factors contributing to anorgasmia include insufficient stimulation, certain medications, and chronic diseases.
- Painful intercourse: Pain during intercourse can be caused by a number of problems, including endometriosis, a pelvic mass, ovarian cysts, vaginitis, poor lubrication, the presence of scar tissue from surgery or a sexually transmitted disease. A condition called vaginismus is a painful, involuntary spasm of the muscles that surround the vaginal entrance. It may occur in women who fear that penetration will be painful and also may stem from a sexual phobia or from a previous traumatic or painful experience.

Bishop Canevin girls soccer captures Section 3-A crown
The stakes were high for the Bishop Canevin girls soccer team when it went on the road to face Seton-La Salle last week.
If the Lady Crusaders downed the Lady Rebels, they claimed the Section 3-A title outright. But a loss would give Avonworth a chance to work its way into a tie for first.
A freshman stepped up, though, and made sure the latter didn't happen.
Daisha Reed gave her squad a 2-1 win with two second-half goals, including the winner with less than five minutes left in regulation.
"That's why we put her in there," Bishop Canevin coach Ted Perri said. "We had a feeling she was going to score."
Seton-La Salle controlled most of the game, taking the lead midway through the first half and holding until midway through the second.
"The sign of a good playoff team is a team that never gives up," Perri said. "We came back from being down one and took control. Everyone stepped up."
The Lady Crusaders added a 2-0 win over Avonworth and a 2-2 tie with Steel Valley to finish the regular season last week.
The 2-0-1 week gave Bishop Canevin a 9-1-2 Section 3-A mark and a 11-2-2 overall record. The nine section wins earned the Lady Crusaders their first Section 3-A title.
"It feels really good," Reed said. "I am so proud of the how the entire team has played this season."
They will be joined in the playoffs by second-place Avonworth (8-3-1) and third-place Ellis School and Seton-La Salle (7-5).
The Lady Crusaders enter the playoffs on a bit of a roll. After falling to Ellis School, 3-2, on Sept. 10, the team did not drop another Section 3-A game.
The team did stumble on Oct. 6 against Sewickley Academy, 3-1.
The Lady Panthers, though, are 16-0-1 and may be the top Class A team entering the postseason.
Over the final seven section games of the season, Bishop Canevin outscored its opponents, 24-4, and recorded four shutouts.
"We are starting to peak at the right time," Perri said.

Mental Health Awareness
Mental Illness and Awareness: Commentary on a Local News Story
Passing the newspaper stand today, the one containing the local bi-folded publication, I noticed a story titled "A West Side Story." I actually passed several of these newspaper stands throughout my errands today, and I was finally motivated to pick one up. After all, I live on the West side of town, and the girl in the snapshot on the cover of the magazine could be one of my neighbors.
The West side of town in my city is considered to be more crime ridden, and the reputation of the Westside of Charlotte, NC often precedes it in many local circles of the city. The history of this side of town and its working class runs deep. One of the first black colleges in the city lies at the beginning of the Westside, and it has been a landmark in the city as well as in many people's lives for over 150 years. There are many family owned businesses, and community found in the churches on this side of town is inspirational. This side of town is also predominantly black and mostly lower income.
The cover story in 'Creative Loafing' this week is about a young teenage girl who hung herself in the back of a police car on the West side of Charlotte. The 18-year-old girl had been raised by her grandmother and had been in and out of trouble in recent years. She took her grandmother's car one night, to go shopping. At a local clothing store, she waited in line, paid for some items, and was arrested shortly thereafter for wearing a shirt she was accused of stealing.
According to the article, the girl was "demonstrably angry and refused to provide her name." The article also tells us that while the girl "screamed frantically, police handcuffed her and placed her inside" the cop car. The girl then, began to "desperately bang her head" on both the back window and the Plexiglas separating the front and back of a police cruiser. The incident was caught on the cruiser's camera, and the girl banged her head 17 times, so hard against the glass of her window that cracks appeared in the middle.
The girl quieted down, and the cops left her unattended while they sorted out paperwork. The 18-year-old girl managed to wrap her seatbelt around her neck three times, and she choked her self, nearly to death. She still remains in intensive care, with little brain function. There is an on-going investigation and lawsuit. The story has gained some press, especially internationally.
Many people feel these officers were negligent, and an 18-year-old is fighting for her life two months later as a result. The NAACP has a strong opinion on this story, as Charlotte chapter president Rev. Kojo Nantambu stated, "I feel if it had been a white child from Ballantyne, there would have been an orchestrated community outcry." I will also agree with his feeling.
I also think that the prejudice and ignorance in a case is much more complex than just the color of the young girl's skin. When I first read of the young girl's reaction to thee arrest, I immediately thought of mental illness. To scream "frantically," is not a normal reaction or behavior. And to beat your head against glass 17 times, so hard that the glass started to crack is not normal behavior. The article mentions nothing about the girl's mental state, nor does it say anything about the teen's history with either mental illness or substance abuse.
But, to me, those are the questions that keep persisting in my mind. Often times, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia do not manifest until the patient is in the late teens or early twenties. Most diagnosed with these diseases do not have their first episode until then, and 18 becomes a prime age for the onset of such a disorder. Also, depression, anxiety, and PTSD could result in the behavior this young girl exhibited. Depression and anxiety are not uncommon with women in a poor area, raised without one or both their parent's in the picture. Anyway I slice it, the 18-year-old girl's behavior was definitely not normal behavior, or a normal reaction to an arrest.
Mental illness carries such a stigma with it, and often times one's mental illness is kept hidden in the family closet. Also, this stigma keeps many of the population from becoming educated about it. When things are kept to a whisper, it is hard to know the real facts. Furthermore, the stigma and ignorance about mental illness has kept our hospitals and police forces in the dark.
Since cutbacks in healthcare, especially for both the poor and the mentally ill in the last ten to fifteen years, many of the mentally ill go untreated. Many cannot afford the doctors alone, much less the medication required to make them better. Some of these patients become substance abusers, as they attempt to self-medicate with alcohol and drugs. And many of the mentally ill end up in our court systems. They often commit minor infractions, landing themselves in the hands of our law enforcement officers.
I think that our police force needs to be more educated about the mentally ill. These police are often the front line for seeing the abnormal behavior that someone may exhibit, and they need to be able to respond differently to the mentally ill. When a person bangs their head against glass 17 times, causing a crack, the officers should already be aware of this person's mental instability.
There is nothing about this young girl's behavior during the arrest that would be considered "normal." Reading the article, it seemed obvious to me that there was some sort of mental instability going on with this young girl. Maybe I recognized it because I am educated about the topic. At this point, the young girl still remains in a coma and the ins and outs of her mental state may never be known.
Our police force needs to be more educated about mental illness. They need to be more aware of some of the signs, knowing how to respond accordingly. If that happened in this instance, this girl's fate could be much different.
As unfortunate as it is, many of the mentally ill end up in police custody and in our jails. The police are the front line defense in fighting this illness today. As our healthcare becomes even more precarious, we see the cases of mentally ill in our jails rising dramatically. We need to educate our law enforcement officers, our front line of defense against this disease. It could possibly save a life or two.

It's nearly spring cleanup/fix up time. I'm limiting my spring action to probing the back of the refrigerator to dislodge jars of forgotten spaghetti sauce. But for those that will spend in excess of 150 million dollars on home improvements this year in the US, it's time to get to work. The do-it-yourself crowd spends zillions of dollars and has created a multitude of businesses on-line and on the street to sell everything from fixtures to classes in building additions. Websites, magazines and books in many languages lend a hand to the home and garden set. How can you create images that will meet the needs of these huge markets?

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - In a closing night filled with spirit and sportsmanship, freshman Ozzie Moyer and sophomores Patrick Myers and Nikki Barczak took gold in individual events at the 2012 Janis Hape Dowd Nike Cup at Koury Natatorium.
Moyer took first place in the men's 1-meter diving finals with a score of 311.00, while Myers finished out front in the men's 200-yard backstroke, (1:47.06) followed immediately by Barczak who claimed first in the women's 100-yard freestyle (50.55).
"Today was great," head coach Rich DeSelm said. "We had very good team energy and very good prelims that set us up for even faster stuff tonight."
The final results of the Nike Cup had the NC State Wolfpack claiming first in both women's and men's competition. On the women's side, the Wolfpack ended the weekend with a score of 933 points, followed by UNC with 816, ECU with 676.5, Navy with 666.5, Old Dominion with 384, Northeastern with 325, James Madison with 65, and Duke with 44. On the men's side, NC State ended with a score of 1195.5 points, followed by UNC with 901, Navy with 778.5, ECU with 537, Old Dominion with 439, and Duke with 65.
The swimmers got the night rolling with what might be the most exhausting event, the 1650-yard freestyle. On the women's side, Old Dominion's Yesim Giresunlu swam all the way to first with a time of 16:43.15. Not far behind her was Carolina freshman Emma Nunn, whose time of 16:47.82 earned her second place in the miler.
Freshman Thomas Duvall of Navy won the men's 1650-yard freestyle with a leading time of 15:21.12. While Carolina senior Brett Nagle did not compete in the men's 1650-yard freestyle championship, it should be noted that his impressive time of 15:07.96 in the exhibition was a career best.
The UNC women kept on shining through the women's 200-yard backstroke, as Annie Harrison finished with a second-place time of 2:00.84. The event was won by Old Dominion's Kimberly Rashleigh with a time of 1:59.53.
It was a Tar Heel takeover in the men's 200-yard backstroke, as five Carolina swimmers competed in the championship event. Sophomore Patrick Myers pulled ahead in the last second to claim first with a time of 1:47.06. Following after him were sophomore Clifton Gordon in third (1:48.84), freshman Nic Graesser in fourth (1:48.87), junior Brad Dillon in sixth (1:49.00), and senior Tom Luchsinger in seventh (1:49.37).
UNC sophomore Nikki Barczak flew into first in the women's 100-yard freestyle with a time of 50.55. She was joined in the championship by fellow Tar Heels sophomore Danielle Siverling who took third (51.01) and freshman Ally Hardesty who took fifth (51.40).
Carolina junior Kyle Ficker competed in the men's 100-yard freestyle championship, taking eighth with a time of 46.02. Old Dominion's Sidni Hoxha was a bullet in the event, zooming into first with a time of 43.43.
UNC juniors Cari Blalock and Katie Rechsteiner started and finished the women's 200-yard breaststroke championship together. The pair tied for fourth with a time of 2:20.69. Navy senior Laura Gorinski swam to a strong first-place finish with a time of 2:13.56.
The men's 200-yard breaststroke was won by ECU sophomore Rokas Cepulis with a time of 2:01.65. Carolina junior Dan O'Connor pulled out a seventh-place finish, clocking in at 2:05.49.
Carolina senior Katie Nolan made a strong push in the women's 200-yard butterfly that was good for a third-place time of 2:00.08. She was joined in the event by three fellow Tar Heels: junior Meredith Hoover in fourth (2:01.96), freshman Alli Haufler in sixth (2:02.49), and freshman Emma Nunn in seventh (2:03.88). Old Dominion's Jessica Hubert pulled through at the end to touch first with a time of 1:58.86.
UNC's tandem of Luchsinger (1:48.10) and Colley (1:49.36) claimed third and fourth place, respectively, in the men's 200-yard butterfly. Navy senior Ben Bondurant pulled out a close first with a time of 1:47.51.
Three Tar Heels participated in the women's 3-meter diving finals. Sophomore Natalie Ritter rated highest of the three with a fourth-place score of 283.55, followed by freshman Erin Purdy in sixth (260.70) and sophomore Kelly Corish in eighth (234.60). NC State sophomore Rachael Mumma's 311.90 was the highest score in the event.
Carolina made waves in men's 1-meter diving competition, placing four divers in the top eight spots. Freshman Ozzie Moyer's score of 311.00 was good for top honors, followed by senior Ryland Jones in second (294.25), sophomore Ryan Fox in sixth (264.90), and junior Bryant Wooten in seventh (257.80).
It was a nail-biting finish in the women's 400-yard freestyle relay, as NC State's relay team of senior Marifrances Henley, sophomore Hannah Freyman, and freshmen Riki Bonnema and Mariah Hamil squeaked out a victory. Their time of 3:22.08 outmatched the UNC's "A" relay team (3:23.33), made up by senior Katie Nolan, freshman Ally Hardesty, and sophomores Danielle Siverling and Nikki Barczak, who couldn't close the gap towards the end. Carolina's "B" relay team took seventh in the event with a time of 3:31.24.
The Tar Heels' "A", "B", and "C" relay teams all finished in the top eight of the men's 400-yard freestyle relay. The "A" team, consisting of juniors Kyle Ficker and J.T. Stilley and freshmen Logan Heck and Sean Sullivan, took fourth overall with a time of 3:01.50. The "C" team finished seventh with a time of 3:03.21, and the "B" team finished eighth with a time of 3:04.60.
Though the outcome of the Nike Cup wasn't everything UNC had hoped for, the future looks bright for the Tar Heels.
"We leave this meet excited about what we accomplished, but disappointed for being beaten," DeSelm said. "But what matters is what you do with that. This season's not over."
The Tar Heels will be back in the pool the weekend after Thanksgiving when they travel to Columbus, Ohio to compete in the 2012 Ohio State University Swimming & Diving Invitational.

Would you consider wearing something like this while you're CCing? Assuming the cost is reasonable of course.
Watch at 8:00 to see him get shot while wearing it.
If affordable and comfortable, I would were one. Why not.
Don"t let stupid be your skill set....
And Shepards we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee,
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, So that our feet may swiftly carry out thy command,
And we shall flow a river forth to Thee, And teeming with souls shall it ever be,
yeah I would wear one. Its just 1 more thing to keep your butt alive if you get in some deep ****
I would definitly consider it depending on price, and definitly after doing some more research on it's stopping ability.
Walk softly ...
I see this as being the wave of the future in our country, just go the local WM and buy level one, two or three for every day comfort and long lasting war. sorry I meant to say ware

Ollie North had a company doing Kevlar-lined business clothes and such when he first, ah, found himself in need of a private sector job, as I recall.
On a different note, I think the Second Chance guy letting himself be shot to demonstrate his own vests is pretty crazy to start with. A reporter getting shot by a guy he just met, using a gun the knows nothing about, wearing a product he is utterly unfamiliar with???

Well, it does provide a new perspective on self-defense. If I were a high value target or someone important then great! Otherwise, this stuff can't be all that comfortable for the everyday private citizen. Initially, I would like it but after a while I'm afraid it would get old, hot and cumbersome. Besides, I'm more concerned that it would make me look fat! Ahhhh, such vanity...
Still, I'm sure there are some that would love to be ready for that occasional drive-by shooting in their suburbia neighborhoods.
Monsters are real and so are ghosts. They live inside of us, and sometimes they win.

Entertaining video. I really like the way the company president mentioned the "hip hop" contingent as a possible big market. The way he blew his breath out and shook his head a bit when he mentioned them had me rolling.
+1 to not getting shot, voluntarily or otherwise.

wouldnt mind like a light coat of some sort pending on price but what about the summer the shirts cant be comfortable and breath
So say these become more prevalent, seems to me the everyday crook would certainly want to get his hands on these.
He names all the customer all over the world, but he forgot to tell about all drug dealers too . And that about the hip-hop people was hilarious. I hope that the world does not change that much so we need to wear something like that. I just cannot imagine wearing one of them in South Florida.

Toccoa City Commission To Meet Today
The Toccoa City Commission will wrap up its calendar year today with its final regularly scheduled meeting for 2013.
Toccoa City Commissioners are scheduled to meet at 5 p.m. today at ToccoaCity Hall.
Today marks the final regularly scheduled meeting for outgoing City Commissioners Ron Seib and Andy Pavliscsak.
During today's meeting, Judge Bob Struble is scheduled to swear in incoming city commissioners Jeanette Jamieson and Evan Hellenga.
Their four-year terms begin on January 1, 2014.
Prior to the oaths of office for the new commissioners, the current commission will have one item to deal with under "old business."
City commissioners must hold a final reading on the proposed abandonment of Savannah Lane and part of an adjacent alley.
Last month, commissioners voted 2 to 1 in favor of a first reading of the proposed abandonment.
However, commissioners then voted unanimously to table the second reading at their next meeting
The Toccoa First United Methodist Church owns all of the property surrounding Savannah Lane and the part of the alley proposed to be abandoned and wants to have that available to them for further expansion.
However, some residents who live on nearby Walnut Street remain opposed to the abandonment because the alley and Savannah Lane provide them secondary access to their properties if Walnut Street is blocked for some reason.
In an effort to alleviate that concern, the church has offered an eight-foot easement, the same width as the alley, down the side of its property to allow for such emergency access, but opponents of the abandonment say they do not want that either.
When tabling the second reading, city commissioners encouraged the two sides to meet and try and work out their differences prior to a final vote.
Prior to today's 5 p.m. meeting, city commissioners will hold a work session at 4 p.m.
During the work session, commissioners are scheduled to discuss a design team for the city pool.
Both today's meeting and work session are open to the public.

Although council tax rates have recently been set for 2008/09 in England, Wales and Scotland, the future costs for Scottish households remain less sure, as discussions continue about a replacement tax.
The Scottish government plans to bin what it calls the "unfair" council tax and introduce a local income tax in 2011/12.
Do you think the Scottish government has got it right with the idea of a new income tax?
Perhaps you feel that council tax is the fairest option.
Or maybe you have a suggestion for a replacement tax.
We asked for your comments, a selection of which are below. The debate is now closed.
This sounds like another version of the poll tax and as the poll tax, will lead to people going underground to avoid paying it. However it could work if left to HMRC to collect and distribute. Adding, say, 1p in the pound for council services to our income tax could be handed out to local councils based on numbers on the electoral roll. It's not foolproof but it will reduce the burden on councils to collect any money and reduce their collection bill as it will all be handled by HMRC if we can trust them not to muck it up. As an aside, any % based tax has to be fair as the more you earn, the more you pay. I think people forget this when talking about tax in general. If I earn £10k at 20% I pay £2k, if I earn £100k @ 20% I pay £20k and hence pay more.Richard, London
I am amazed that Joseph Duda had the audacity to complain about paying council tax on a second house he uses "for storage". Undoubtedly, there are cheaper ways to store, so one can assume that he is keeping hold of the property to gain from property price inflation. If he wants to benefit in this way then I don't see why other council tax payers have to subsidise him.Daniel Charles, Edinburgh
Since my mother died and left me her house over 10 years ago, and with my income dropping, I am finding it difficult to pay for my own house - where I live with my wife who works part time - and also pay full council tax for my mother's old property - which is used just for storage and is in need of much renovation. Sometimes the bin is emptied once a year - that's all. Just over two years ago I successfully had mum's old house banding lowered because of the renovation required, together with the reduction for empty properties, and thought at last there is some fairness around and was content to pay my bit. To my amazement last year, the local council scrapped the empty property reduction and I now find I am paying more in real terms. Joseph Duda, Wrexham
The Scottish government's idea of funding local government with a rise in income tax is good in principle, but they will need to think through the detail. For example, if I bought a holiday home in Scotland, would I avoid all property taxes on it?Chris Grey, Guildford
I am praying that income tax comes in very soon, as the council tax is so unfair. I am paying a quarter of my take home pay on the tax. It is just as well I get working tax credits or I would be in poverty.Robert Knowles, Selkirk
In so far as the tax proposed is proportionate to income, it is a fair tax. Tax based on property value may have had some merit in the 18th and 19th centuries when property ownership was very limited, but it is now grossly unjust. The present government intends to revalue taking into account many factors all of which are completely unrelated to the occupier's ability to pay. Is it really the intention to make people downsize?.Charles Haworth, Leek
Here in Aberdeenshire, my wife and I each pay £1200 per annum on a band B house. Based on income we would both save lots. I think mostly people would save, hence the difference in the amount collected from now. But it's not the amount, it's the idea that is important as it would be fairer. Money Box failed to discuss the underlying philosophy.Donald M Shepherd
The current method of calculating council tax takes no account of the householder's ability to pay. This is especially true of pensioners who exist on a fixed pension with little opportunity to improve this. A much fairer system would be to use a local income tax system. The existing information held by HMRC could be used to make these calculations.Bill Fancourt
Local income tax is a much fairer system, but because of the outcry it would cause I doubt if central government would have the 'bottle' to implement it. But maybe, just maybe, the Scots being more pragmatic, they might do it. If not why not fund local councils directly from central funding, or why not increase vat and use this to fund local councils.Sid Jacques
Local income tax would be a disaster for the Highlands and other rural areas as this system would generate far less than council tax. Low-paid workers, pensioners and self-employed people make up a huge proportion of rural populations and these people would pay nothing or very little. With a huge area to cover, Highland Council will find itself struggling far more than it is at the moment - and the situation is extremely difficult as it is. I would pay a lot less, but I don't want that, believe it or not - isolated and vulnerable individuals will suffer the most. SNP and the Lib Dems have obviously not looked at the impact on rural areas where the demographics are startling different from the central belt. Can someone please consider the principle of 'from each of us according to our means; to each of us according to our needs'? Meagaid
At last.......someone is taking the most unfair tax of all "council tax" seriously. Or at least trying to come up with a fairer system. The only fair tax is income tax. I always thought the Scots were canny but this shows that they are fair and brilliant as well. Super idea. D. Hay
I don't disagree that council tax is unfair but this is not the answer. Those who lost power through imposing poll tax on Scotland must be delighted to see this own goal. Flat rate income tax is expensive for the poorest as Labour in Westminster are just realising. I earn about 3 times the national average income and if I understand this correctly will pay less than I do in council tax. My home is in the second highest council tax band. If I pay less it must mean that apart from the very rich (and there really are not many of them) the burden is falling on the poorest and those of average incomes. Doesn't seem fairer to me but if Alex Salmond wants to call this fair he is going to suffer. More people will see how the small world of Nationalism lacks the depth to bring forward good thought out policies of benefit to all. Graeme
Once again we hear the justification for local income tax that the burden will fall upon "those who can afford to pay". So let us consider both end of the spectrum: a retired couple in a large house, likely to be asset rich but cash poor. At the other end the young couple with a family, huge mortgage and the two incomes necessary to fund a basic lifestyle. Who really has the greatest ability to pay? Clearly the retired couple have far greater ability to pay in that they can down size or use equity relief to raise funds. A strategy that the young family, or indeed anyone with a mortgage will not be able to do. How would it be phased in? Will the nicely comfortable retired population who have not had to carry the this extra tax burden during their working life suddenly benefit from a tax reduction they have not contributed one penny to? The council tax is fair in that it addresses all equally - the government will tinker with it at its peril.
Chris Exelby
Local income tax is the fairest way to fund local councils, based on people's ability to pay. This is what most people in Scotland voted for in the last election, and why Labour were kicked out. English people should follow our example for fairness.Mrs Marion Mitchell, Edinburgh
The abolition of council tax is long overdue! I remember my widowed mother struggling to pay this tax because she and my father had purchased their home rather than rent a council house. A close friend lived in a council house with his parents and four adult brothers and sisters - all of whom were wage earners but only paid one council rent. How fair was that then, and how fair is that now? Richard Sweet
I believe this is a good idea benefiting those on the lowest incomes as some pensioners are paying as much as 50% of the basic state pension in this tax. What those who oppose it must remember that they might be on a low income one day. Another idea would be a local sales tax which councils would have to compete with other councils to keep the sales tax down.Richard Clissold
Council tax greatly penalises single people like me. It is a hugely unfair tax so Scotland's idea of a local income tax is great. Let's hope it happens and then rolls down to England.Mrs Griffiths
I do think that a local income tax should be a fairer option; for younger families, for the elderly remaining in their family home when their children have left, and for those on limited income but who fall outside present benefit limits.Paul C Mullineaux
The proposed introduction of local income tax will again impact on those people without the wealth to use accountants and find ways of avoiding paying tax. The current tax regime is bad enough without another layer of costly bureaucracy. There is a black economy out there with widespread evasion of income and value added taxes. The council tax is collected from residents and less easily avoided. Local income tax will be an added burden to honest hardworking voters and a bonus for the very wealthy and those in the black economy. Local income tax is another gimmick conjured up by self serving politicians who disregard the true consequences of their proposals. E Woods
I am surprised that Money Box is looking at this and if this programme is positive about local income tax replacing council tax it will be a first for a UK BBC programme. Most are ante the SNP. I think that it is one of the excellent policies which are moving the SNP so far ahead of Labour here in Scotland. I hope the UK government does the same. Can I suggest that Money Box has a look at Scottish income tax, road tax, oil & gas revenues, water sales etc. and compares it with the Barnett settlement of this year? Alex, Skelmorlie, Ayrshire
If this were to happen my council tax would increase by a factor of three. I live in a shared house with three other working people; the council tax is divided by four which is about £360 each a year. A 3% extra tax would be £945 a year for me, an extra £585 for nothing. A real cash cow for local governments who have a restrictive house building policy.David Young, Reading
Another swingeing tax on "labour" not "capital". Incredibly unfair as "labour", (all us PAYE & NI paying drones, already taxed at nearly 45% in reality) already pay far too much. "Capital" (those who own everything/inherit everything) pay very little. This will be another gift for those with "capital", just as it has been gifted a 18% flat rate capital gains tax.Mark Blackburn, London
Fortunately Scotland has a democratic Parliament based upon proportional representation. This is why it has to consider "unfairness". A local income tax on all residents including non-doms would bring natural justice that has so long eluded the UK local tax system. Brian Edmonds, Farnham
Whilst I would welcome council tax being switched to a local income tax, as on the Liberal Democrat model, it would cut mine by some two thirds, it would inevitably produce the same backlash as the Poll Tax. As local democracy is largely an illusion, the simplest solution is for central government to fund the whole amount.Tony Knight, Durham

Have you ever set out to make your own mayonnaise only to have it not thicken properly? This recipe contains super healthy ingredients, is easy to make and always works. The trick to having your mayonnaise set up every time is to add the Dijon mustard at the end of blending. We've used a combination of EVOO and avocado oil but you can use just one, or any other healthy oil of your choosing such as macadamia nut oil.
Store leftovers for 5-7 days in the refrigerator.
NOTE: This recipe contains raw egg
Updated Recipe: 11/10/15
|olive oil, extra virgin
|avocado oil
|egg yolk(s), preferably pastured
|lemon(s), juiced
|mustard, dijon
|sea salt, to taste
- Combine the oils and set aside.
- Place the egg yolks and lemon juice in a bowl. With electric beaters or an immersion blender or a brisk whisking, briefly blend the ingredients together.
- While continuing to blend, slowly add the oils in a very thin drizzle. It can take as long as 3 to 5 minutes to fully incorporate the oils and produce a thick mixture.
- Next, blend in the Dijon mustard and sea salt, if using.

how long will this last in the fridge?
It keeps for 5-7 days.
I find making mayonnaise or any kind of aioli comes out best when hand whisked. It takes longer but comes out with the correct consistancy. After combining the egg, lemon juice and mustard ( recipe says optional for this but it acts as an emulsifier, so does vinegar) add oil one drop at a time thoroughly whisking after each drop, once it becomes emulsified you can add oil more quickly, just make sure to completely incorporate the oil before adding more.
My KitchenAid Mixer doesn't work for this recipe, but my hand blender does.
decided not to make this when i added it all up and saw that every tablespoon of the finished product will have about 15g of fat. yikes. don't trust myself to not make it and eat half of it in some tuna salad
Remember that all ingredients, should have the same temperature when making it, so take everything you need from the fridge, out about 1 hour before making it…
How about Trader Joe's mayo? Made with canola oil. I'm breast cancer (hormone positive) survivor so no soy for me. I love their mayo and would find it much easier than making my own. Especially since I don't use a lot. Love the fact that it also has apple cider vinegar in it.
Does it matter, though, if store-bought mayo has sweetener (of any kind) in it? That's what I'm trying to find out.
Instead of using that much olive oil, would it be safe to use applesauce in place of oil?
I have made this a couple of times. The first time was perfect, the second time not at all. The difference I found was what I whisked it in. For *me* it worked when I used a glass bowl. When I used a steel bowl it didn't incorporate. I wonder if the difference is the glass vs. plastic container for the individual blender. I will have to try it again.
My sister makes it in her thermomix. She also uses macadamia oil, as it is lighter tasting.
Folks, I thought this was a paleo site and yet there are posts about using dreaded CANOLA oil. Please respect us paleos by not posting non-paleo ingredient suggestions. Thanks.
Rob – Why so dogmatic? And besides, if you read the references to the "Dreaded Canola" it is stated that its in response to a medical aversion to other Holy Paleo oils. Its about doing your best not being a perfect Type A.
I finally got mayo to work for me by using an immersion blender – the hand held stick. Place all the ingredients in a small canning jar and place the blender in making sure it touches the bottom. Start blending and you're done in less than a minute. So excited to FINALLY have figured this out after wasting so much oil with other attempts.
Use an emmersion blender, you can mix it all up instantly, no waiting on drops, drops , and more drops. I promise, it'll work like a dream!
I use my Vita-Mix and make a new batch of mayo every other week or so.
I use 1 TBLS. white vinegar instead of lemon juice and about 1/8 tsp. sea salt.
After blending these ingredients for about 30 seconds, when adding the oil, I start on variable speed 1 for the 1st minute or so then gradually increase to 3 or 4. I have never had a problem with the mayo not thickening. I use sunflower oil instead of the olive oil, as it is a milder taste. The most important key to perfect mayo is adding the oil very,very slowly. I use a measuring cup with spout.
Solena71's wide-mouth mason jar and immersion (stick) blender method works like a dream. It's no fuss and always works. I didn't have flax oil, so subbed melted coconut oil. Doesn't taste like store-bought mayo, but is yummy.
What food processor do you use for such a small quantity. I have a big food processor and a stick. But nothing small enough for the quantity or that will allow me to add the oil while blending. Help please?

This link lists most of the condos available. Take a look and then let me know which ones seem to best meet your needs. Then I'll be able to guide you in making the best choice for your upcoming trip to the island.
What I have found is that most people fall in love with the part of the island where they stay the first time they're here. So if you are looking at property on the south side of Ambergris Caye I recommend you stay there. If on the North, stay up there. This way you can test drive the area of the island that you are looking at owning.

Long, long before Curb Your Enthusiasm, Mad About You and his many film appearances, Jeff Garlin was a touring stand-up. On the mike, he's got a bright, upbeat presence that's easy to connect with, as well as a keen eye that lends his jokes an extra snap.
