Question: What do you wear when you write?
I later recall seeing a post about what writers like to wear--called them "writing clothes". I don't recall what was posted, but I'm sure it was something in the line of a nice velour pantsuit of some sort. Like what I wear on my longer days of working in my office.
I tend to jump into sweats the moment I get home, anyway.
So, let's explore the idea in this blog post.
This looks comfy...
I've read that some people get dressed up. Men perhaps put on a suit coat in order to feel as though he's actually going to an office sort of job. But I don't think it applies to all men when they write. Do they get up, throw on the sweats and a T, go unshaven and crouch over the computer keys? Or do they shower and shave, and get into a pair of jeans and a button up shirt? Unless any guy writer out there wants to comment, and let us know what he wears when he writes, I haven't a clue.
So, I thought I would throw the question out to you:
What do you wear when you write?

I'd wear the most comfortable clothing that I possessed. Particularly with fiction writing. It's my opinion that the object is to become immersed in another world. Anything that keeps you in the "real world" is a distraction.ReplyDelete
The first example you gave was interesting. I know most people procrastinate (me included) but the idea that grocery shopping would be a more enticing proposition than writing, makes me wonder if the person in question is really passionate about writing. Haha. The idea of having the time to just write without the demands of day to day errands sounds blissful!
Oh, I know what you mean. There have been times when I said to myself, how much easier it would be for me to merely be a house wife and not worry about things a writer constantly worries about.ReplyDelete
But, yes! I agree about that one writer. I don't think the person has writing on her mind much, if she thinks of leaving her office.
Something comfortable is the key. You need to be able to sit and ponder your mss. for hours and to have anything restrictive on would be uncomfortable.
Hello, Lorelei. Sadly, my answer isn't very sexy. Finding the time to write is the battle, so when I am working, be it an article or fiction-writing, I give it little thought and just wear general clothing; no smoking jackets or robe and slippers.ReplyDelete
Now, should I sell enough copies to quit my day-job...
I'll have to get back to you on that one. :)
Pretty much whatever I happen to be wearing. I usually write late at night so it's usually my sleep clothes, or a t-shirt and sweats. Otherwise I never think about it much.ReplyDelete
All right! We have one man who jumped in and gave us his "un-sexy" answer to what he wears. (This blog post is almost a little naughty, isn't it?--"what are you wearing?" LOL!)But it was fun to hear from everyone...ReplyDelete
Thank you Jimmy for stopping by during your busy day/night.
Thanks Hildred for comment.
It's 6am, and I'm in my velour sweats--very comfy!
It depends. Sometimes I get up and go right to the computer while I'm still in my PJs. Sometimes I'm still in work clothes from the day and I go right to my computer.ReplyDelete
Thank you Shelly! PJ's are winning out, I think. (^;ReplyDelete

Pick your battles, they say. Only spend the time and energy on the conflicts that truly matter to you and let the rest go, they say.
Well, since having children I have learned that, like Luke Skywalker, sometimes you stumble across a couple of droids, the battles choose you, and you have no choice but to engage or be overrun. I cannot always pick and choose my battles. In my house, these "battles" take on various shapes and sizes: to shampoo or not to shampoo, which shoes can be worn and which cannot be tolerated for a single second, and which Disney character is the right one to make a bandage truly effective. And of course, there is Battlefield Food. If only I could understand why toast with butter is delicious one day and then clearly poison the next!
These daily battles are sometimes small and sometimes big, but they always contain more drama than I can fathom. I try my best to be diplomatic, for these issues may actually be important to my children, and I do not want to dismiss their concerns simply because I don't share them. But, the conflict exhausts me and wears down my patience. I find myself becoming shorter tempered and having to dig a little deeper with each new absurd encounter. And I never would have thought that, with all that comes with being a parent, it would be yogurt that broke me. A cultured dairy snack brought me right up to the edge and then pushed me over into the waiting abyss of "Mommy's-way-over-it-land." Here is my story:
It was after school, time for snack. After arguing the reasons why leftover Halloween candy is not a healthy choice for a snack (at least not for small children; for mommies, it's totally fine…), we settle on a slightly healthier yogurt option, the kind that comes in a plastic tube, making it simultaneously easier to eat and easier to squirt on the floor. And this is where the battle began. Shots fired:
Child A: "I want the one with the girl lemur on it!"
Child B: "Nooooooooo! I want the one with the girl lemur on it!"
I was astounded at the level of importance my children assigned to which stinking lemur was on the outside of their yogurt tubes. I was also mildly impressed with their zoological knowledge of small primates; I'm not sure I would have grasped "lemur" at age three.
Anyway, I digress…
So, fine. Everyone could have their stupid yogurt tube with whichever stupid animated prosimian they wanted. I opened the fridge: Only one tube left. For two children. To share. This was bad news, but not insurmountable.
I quickly started to assess my exit options… Do I say we are out of tubes? Say they can share the one tube, maybe in two bowls or maybe in one bowl and one tube, or…or…CRAP. None of that will work, not when my gremlins are hungry and tired after school and already fired up from the skirmish about not being allowed to eat candy all day long. How can I diffuse this situation before it goes nuclear? Any other yogurt options available? Yes! Huzzah! Some vanilla Greek yogurt hiding in the back behind the expired hummus! OK, how to sell this…
And I thought I had it:
"All right, ladies, exciting news! One of you can have the coveted yogurt tube…"
"Me! Me! I want it!" said the both of them.
"And the other one can have—wait for it—vanilla yogurt…"
"Nooooooooo!" they both started to whine.
"…with sprinkles!" I finish with a smile.
And this is where I think I black out a little. There was a whirlwind of chattering and whining, and when I came to again we had come to an agreement of sorts. To the best of my recollection, the treaty laid out the following:
Child A will agree to have the yogurt tube, if—and only if—it is squeezed out into a blue bowl. If no blue bowl is available, a purple bowl may be substituted, but only if accompanied by a blue spoon. Child B will concede to eat vanilla yogurt, in a green bowl, but being suddenly disgusted by the idea of colored sprinkles, demands a substitution of mini-chocolate chips on her yogurt instead or the deal is null and void.
I vaguely, with trepidation, agree to this arrangement and head to the kitchen to make it so. No blue bowl, no green bowl, no blue spoon. No chocolate chips. For fox sake. Panic begins to rise up from my toes, and I wonder if 2:45 P.M. is too early to shut myself in the bedroom with a bottle of wine.
But then I shake it off. It's just yogurt; they are just testing their limits, and my limits, and feeding off each other's tenacious ridiculousness. I put the vanilla yogurt in one bowl, grab the tube and a second bowl, and head to the table.
"OK, here is your vanilla yogurt in a bowl, and here is your yogurt tube. Do you want me to squeeze it into the bowl, or would you like to do it?" I ask this time because I try to learn from the mistakes of my past.
"I want sprinkles!" whines Child B.
Wait, what?
"But you just said you didn't like sprinkles today."
"I do now!" Child B explains.
"That's not the girl lemur!" whines Child A. "I don't want the yogurt tube!"
I kind of go outside myself, watching, like a reality TV show of absurdly over-privileged celebrities. Which character does that make me, I wonder? There is whining. There are tears of misplaced injustice. There are accusations made. This is just yogurt, right? Did I miss something here!?! I feel myself about to lose it.
I take a deep breath and back out of the room.
Do not engage, do not yell, do not engage, do not yell…
I somehow make it into my office and close the door the best I can around the fallen coats and school bags. And then the dam breaks and I am sobbing. Hot, wet tears of exhaustion and exasperation pour out of my eyes. And I can't stop them. Stupid yogurt! The near constant struggle to "keep my cool" in the face of fallacious reasoning and absurd, impossible-to-fulfill demands (like making fruit gummy snacks appear out of thin air) finally gets to me. It was the yogurt tube that broke the camel's back, as it were. And, if parenting were like any other job, in that moment I would have been damn near to giving my notice. This kind of workplace environment is hard on a gal some days.
But at the end of my shift I count up my tips and feel justified in not walking out. In this "profession" I'm tipped out in sweet little girl hugs and kisses, a sense of hope that my kids might go out and make the world a better place, and hopefully, someday, with a totally cush retirement home.
My kids possess personality traits that will, I hope, serve them well in the future. They don't back down easily, they know what they want, and they are willing to fight for it. I don't want them to lose any of that. However, I would love it if they made an exception for me from time to time and show a more compliant, cooperative side for Mommy. I'm fairly confident that their logic and reasoning will improve over time, but for now I must find a way to deal with the frustrations of arguing with "crazy."
After my tears finally stop, I go back to the table, clear away the uneaten yogurt, and sit on the couch with my children to watch cartoons and ask about their day. And, in the back of my mind, I start to prepare for the next battle of wills: Dinnertime.

Finding a way to shield the sun while still enjoying the outdoors led to this gorgeous addition to a cabin deck space.
It started as most cabin-related projects do: We were out to solve a problem.
My wife, Linda, and I wanted to be able to enjoy our deck during the morning, afternoon and early-evening hours, even when the sun was overhead and at its hottest. An open-air pergola seemed like the perfect solution to bring a little relief from the sun while creating a wonderfully welcoming outdoor hangout. And so a project was born.
Design choices
It was during the spring of 2014 that a friend introduced me to SketchUp, a free 3-D modeling software program. We spent an afternoon entering the dimensions of our deck, our longitude and latitude, and the direction our deck faced. Then I chose a style for the overall look of the boards and details for the joist and header ends.
I decided to make the entire structure out of rough-cut cedar with an oiled finish to give it the rustic look I wanted. Because our deck was also in need of refinishing, we painted it with an exterior elastomeric finish in a soft gray-green color. The natural cedar added a nice contrast.
Assembling the pieces
With the design finished and a cut list for the lumber, I mapped out the perimeter of the pergola. I laid out the four corners and removed deck boards before installing the 4x4x10-foot posts, anchoring them to the deck supports. These corner posts would support the 2×6 load-bearing headers on the exterior wall of the cabin and the opposite side of the deck.
For the structure's tail ends, I selected a traditional Windsor-style pattern and made cardboard templates to transfer the design onto both the 2×8 joists and 2×6 headers. Once cut, the joists were then notched to fit the headers on the exterior wall side of the deck and the double headers on the opposite side. I screwed everything in place with coated deck screws to prevent rusting.
Perpendicular to the joists, I ran 2×2 cedar strips ripped from 2x4s to create a nice counterpoint. I knew I wanted to grow wisteria over the pergola roof, so it needed to be sturdy.
Planter boxes
During the design phase, I decided to replace the bench seat between two posts with a trellis wall rising out of a planter box. The planter box is about 32 inches tall, and the trellis extends out of the back of the box. The planter box is lined with ¼-inch cement-fiber board with drainage holes at the bottom. The drainage holes allow us to plant year-round: snow peas and flower vines in the spring and summer, chrysanthemums in the fall and winter.
After completing the pergola, I decided to replace the bench on the left side of the deck with another planter box, this one only 16 inches high. We'll use that planter to grow herbs for all of our cabin cooking needs.
Building a Planter Box
- First, decide how large you want the planting area of the box to be. Then, add the correct dimensions to each side of the box to account for your lining, framing and covering material.
- Build the frame, using 2x2s and coated deck screws.
- Line the inside of the box with cement-fiber board. Seal all seams with silicone caulk.
- Drill 11⁄2-inch holes in the bottom of the box every 2 feet or so. I chose to run PVC pipes from the holes to one side of the box where the excess water can flow away from the deck.
- Cover the framing members with 1×6 cedar. Add molding to the top and base for a finishing touch.

The reaping of maximum points on the road against Aston Villa on Saturday saw us climb to seventh in the table, level with Liverpool and just a point behind fifth placed Everton. Chelsea in fourth have only a three-point advantage following their defeat to Manchester United, while Southampton have dropped back to eighth.
The race for the Euro-spots is well and truly on and Ledley rightly insisted that it was vital to top up the points secured against Everton last week with a further three from Villa Park.
"I thought, after winning last week, it was important to pick up another three points," he stated. "Three points go a long way at the moment in this league - it is so tight."
The boys secured their fourth away win of the season against Villa - a relatively healthy record in a season where away days have not bought great return for any side. Only two teams have registered five wins away from home and Ledley admits that winning on another team's patch does bring an extra buzz to the camp.
"I think it does. There have been times when we've come off the pitch thinking that we've played well and results have not gone our way.
"When we do get the three points it is an extra buzz."

New Delhi, Nov. 3: Ajit Jogi and Ashok Gehlot may prove to be as lucky as Digvijay Singh in cornering most poll tickets for their supporters but not Sheila Dikshit, it appears.
Chhattisgarh chief minister Jogis turn is next as the list of state nominees is likely to be released at the party headquarters here on Wednesday or Thursday in Jogis presence.
The chief minister is expected to bag most of the nominations to the 90 Assembly seats for his supporters. Informed sources said the party leadership, by and large, accepted his recommendations on the choice of nominees when the central election committee took up the list for finalisation on Thursday.
The candidates for 80 seats were finalised that day. The remaining 10, over which the leadership has differences, were apparently left for finalisation by Pranab Mukherjee after he consults Jogi and senior state leaders. Mukherjee is the chief of the central screening committee for Chhattisgarh.
With the central leadership giving primacy to the chief ministers views, Jogi, sources said, was likely to succeed in keeping his word to a dozen legislators who had defected to the Congress over a year ago. They are likely to be renominated, though sections within the state Congress have opposed it.
The state list will likely be released two days ahead of the beginning of the nomination process on November 7. Jogis Rajasthan counterpart, Ashok Gehlot, too, may have a clear upper hand in the choice of nominees.
With a view to accommodate Gehlots recommendations, the party leadership has virtually taken on itself the job of picking candidates for the 200 Assembly seats. Gehlot is camping here for extended consultations with central leaders on the selection, which has aroused suspicion among his detractors. With the chief minister in the thick of the selection process, party sources said large-scale dumping of sitting legislators, as demanded by Gehlots rivals, was unlikely.
Unlike Digvijay, Jogi and Gehlot, who have managed to corner the party leaderships sympathy for their cause, Delhi chief minister Sheila Dikshit appears headed for rough times.
According to various poll surveys, she is the most popular of the four poll-bound Congress chief ministers. But Dikshit is believed to be facing a central team of leaders that is loaded against her and soft on her detractors such as Delhi Congress chief Prem Singh and veterans Jagdish Tytler and Sajjan Kumar.

The fourth birthday brings with it a whole new set of challenges to parenting. Raising a four-year-old is tiring business in motherhood.
The tantrums and meltdowns have returned, but unlike those tantrums that we've seen and heard during the Terrible Twos – they are now "emo" tantrums, which are much much more easily triggered by small, insignificant things.
Ben has become the resident "emo" guy in the house. When things don't go his way, when he perceived that he's being bullied, when he feels a sense of unfairness – he goes to a corner of the house, folds his arms, and sulks. Sometimes in his sulking, he mumbles gibberish to himself. When I check on him and ask what he's saying, he tells me with resentment in his face, "Nothing."
When he is disciplined – and usually for disobedience and bullying his siblings – he becomes ten times more "emo". I hardly use the cane to discipline him; usually a time-out would suffice. And while at time-out, he does the you-don't-love-me-anymore and pulls the wailing nobody-cares-about-me stunt on me. He whimpers and sobs in his most pathetic, and I have to admit, it sounds so pitiful that it breaks my heart. For him, the physical separation of needing to sit apart from everyone in solitude drives him nuts and he gets very emotional about it.
I have a very sensitive firstborn, I tell you.
Then there's the incessant questioning and the unwillingness to listen. Every minute he's thinking of questions to ask and he's asking even while you're answering the first question. He's not listening to your answers; he just wants to keep asking all the questions popping in his head. I sometimes get very annoyed because he keeps asking questions for the sake of asking, and I turn Tiger Mom on him and make him repeat all my answers to all his questions just so that he would listen and not irritate the hell of out me for questioning for questioning's sake. There are also days when I go "I don't know" on him, and unfortunately for me, I'm now reaping what I sowed because lately, he's been using "I don't know" on me whenever I quiz him about what he learned in school, how he slept the night before, and all the other questions parked under the mothering-my-child category.
Four years old is an age of contradictions.
He waffles between insecurity and wanting to exert his independence. He talks about conquering the world, yet, shies away socially and loses that bravado at times. He makes up lots of stories, and stubbornly refuses to acknowledge the difference between fact and fiction – which becomes really tricky when I'm trying to teach him academically. I find it very hard to teach him Science stuff cos' he'll insist what he imagines to be right – and this again frustrates me a lot. He can be very demanding (how come you don't know all the answers, Mama?) but also eagerly cooperative and helpful, rude one moment but also very sorry and sweet the next , and incredibly selfish, yet sensitive and sympathetic at times.
I've been very much a ferocious Tiger Mom these days when it comes to my four-year-old. He seems to have this innate ability to push me to the outer edge of my patience. I turn into a growling and critical mother who over-reacts every time he does what he does best – being a four-year-old. I'm frustrated, angry and drained almost every day.
But I didn't write this post to only detail the challenges of raising a four-year-old. More than that, I'm writing to remind myself to look beyond the challenges that come with raising children at every stage that I am blessed with a four-year-old who's curious about the world, enthusiastic about life, brimming with energy and experiencing all sorts of emotions that's part of growing up. I'm writing to remind myself that beyond wishing that this too shall pass, to remember the now – the now that I may never get to see after the fifth birthday is celebrated and the candles are blown out – and not get too caught up in the daily grind and seeing mothering my four-year-old as a big task to accomplish.
I'm writing this to remind myself because Ben feels that I don't love him anymore. He just told me that on the bus on our way to kindergarten. He says,"I don't know" when I asked him if he knew that I loved him very much. That broke my heart. What he feels matter, and I have, in a bid to parent him with all the challenges that come, managed to work him like a big task to accomplish and forgotten that this boy has feelings too. When I blow it, holler at him and overreact, I push him away; I forget that he's just being four.
I have busied myself with trying to cope with him being four (and his sister being three, and the impending Terrible Two that's approaching with Nat) for too long that I've forgotten to love. To love him for who he is. Just like I've done when he was one year old, two, and three. And to roll with life's punches and adapt as motherhood presents new challenges. Not react all the time and alienate the ones I wish to be firmly attached to for the rest of our lives.
Six more months before he blows out five candles. Six more month to love him while he is still four.

Every year there are a group of 8th graders who will enter high school and have an immediate impact on the basketball scene. The 2020 CLASS will be no different. While this year's freshman class will have its smallest number of impact players, perhaps in Shore history. Make no mistake those who are impact players are all special. It's no secret every player who has made this list has gone on to play DIVISION ONE BASKETBALL…THIS TREND WILL NOT BE BROKEN BY THIS GROUP.
Now you must understand making THE ALL FRESHMAN TEAM at season end, does not mean those players are the best players in their class. One player who was on our first list of impact players last year Lauren Lithgow did not make ALL FRESHMAN…Trust me she one of the best players in the 2019 class. This list represents at least on paper the most talented freshman I have seen entering the shore conference.
2019 IMPACT FRESHMAN LIST- http://nothingbutskills.com/five-impact-8th-graders/
Now some will question why she is on this list. While she will not be attending a shore school. She is every bit a shore player. She has trained and played with shore teams thought-out her young career. She is currently playing up as part of the best 2019 AAU team in the state, THE JERSEY STARZ'S. There is zero question who is the best incoming freshman in the entire state of New Jersey; Kylee Watson is a player every program would be proud to build around. Her teammates like, respect and admire her. Next she has no ego, she will be the same person everyday she walks in the gym…she is a attitude free player. She will not expect special treatment and her family will not allow it. Her mother and future high school coach was a star at Delaware University. Her father is a former football coach. They will not allow this young lady to step out of bounds as a player of student. Her impact will be much like last year's mega star baby Faith Masonius….off the charts. She is a true point forward in every sense of the word. She can put the ball on the deck, shoot three's, post up and is murder off the dribble. She plays on both sides of the floor, she can block shots and can guard every single position on the floor. Here is what I will say about Kylee Watson, she may be most talented player with her size….I HAVE EVER SEEN. My guess is that she will be one of the Top 10 players in the country one day. There is zero question she will be a one of the best player in New Jersey next season. She is a SHORE ADOPTED PLAYER IN MY MIND….she is a mega talent with a real understanding what the word teammate means.
She by far will be the best incoming point guard to enter the shore conference. There are a number of schools in the hunt for her services. She will not be attending one of the powerhouse programs, but if she did, she would start or play right out the gate. Her quickness and strength right now is that of a senior. This winter playing against the very best 8th graders in the state, she dominated them all. Her on ball defense is spectacular right now. Her ability to finish at the rim is rare for any baby. She will instantly become one of the best pure point guards in the shore for years to come. She will remind everyone of former Neptune great Shakenna Richardson. She plays with confidence and a real edge. While not a great shooter, she is very reliable out to the three point line. Trying to guard her off the dribble is a real problem for even the quickest. Her ability to find shooters off dribble drive is way beyond her years. Like every player on this list she is a future D1 lock and ALL SHORE PLAYER. She will enter the season as one of the leading candidates 2017 HOOP GROUP FRESHMAN OF THE YEAR. She is very coachable and has real next level leadership abilities.
Tom Brennan picks up one of the best freshman in the state of New Jersey. She is clearly part of the Stephanie Karcz affect. As Talented players more and more are staying home and playing or the town they live in. She has a college ready body right now. She has next level passing skills and has point guard type ball handling skills for her size. She is the perfect fit for Middletown South unselfish style of play. She will enter the starting lineup from day one most likely of high school career. Taking some of the sting out of South losing two starters. She will be a double figure scorer as a freshman and help solve a lot of rebounding problems for Middletown. What's most impressive is that she is getting better every day. She has a strength and conditioning coach and a team of trainers who believe in her and have worked on her skill sets. It is paying off for Team Richardson, because the improvement in every area o her game is hard to miss…she has stepped it up BIG TIME THIS SPRING. She has the ability to post up or step out to three and make bigger slower opponents pay. But it's her ability to punish smaller players in post that make her such a match up nightmare. They is no question she will be an All Shore player one day. The real question is will she be a Player of the Year candidate one day? I say YES! She is a possible high major player if she continues to improve. This is a major pick up for Middletown South.
She is the only impact freshman going to one of the Shore traditional powers. Joe Montano picks up the hardest worker in the incoming freshman class. She is long and blessed with terrific skill sets. She has the size and strength that all coaches look for in young players. If you would have told me she be on this list 3 years ago, I would have laughed. But she is no laughing matter these days. Told that she needed to become an improved shooter. She immediately willed that skill set into her game with hard work. She is the best shooting swing player to enter the shore. She will step out to 23 feet and bury jumpers. But her passing ability and talent for getting to the rim are an added addition. She is the ultimate gym rat, who has already matched up with some of the best players in the shore. She is the perfect match for Joe Montano, she can be coached hard and her attitude will not go south. She is a classic program kid, no attitude, never a distraction and wildly coachable. What's most impressive is that she choose to attend RBC knowing the D1 talent ahead of her in the program. She could have very easily attended every other team in the shore and have playing time waiting for her. But she is not one who takes the easy road and it's evident in her total commitment to the game. She has the ball handling skills to be a point forward and her IQ will be a welcome addition to the Yankees of high school basketball. This is that rare player with talent, work ethic and the perfect attitude. She is a future D1 lock and will cause a recruiting war among college coaches before her high school days are over.
She is the classic combo guard with shooting ability that no incoming freshman in the Shore can rival. She will team with Lolo Mullaney to form one of the best young shooting guard combo's we have seen in years. Her ability to shoot at a high percentage makes her an issue from day one at the high school level. While she will attend Colts Neck Law, she will play for Colts Neck High School. This will make 3 straight years in a row Colts Neck will have a player make the All-Freshman team… no other school has done this. Camryn Foltz is not just a shooter, she is a smooth ball handler who can get to the rim and find open teammates. She will take some of the pressure off Mullaney by making teams pay for doubling and trapping Mullaney. While she will need to get stronger, her talent and scoring ability will carry her until she physically matures. She has proven she can score against top competition already. Playing against high school competition will not be a shock to her system. Her ball handling skills will allow her to free herself for open shots and elude bigger stronger guards. She is a knowledgeable defender and a hard worker in the classroom and on the court. She is a lock D1 player with ALL SHORE IN HER FUTURE….IVY'S AND PATRIOTS WOULD BE WISE TO START THE RECRUITING PROCESS NOW! She will give Colts Neck a major shot in the arm without being disruptive…flat out one of the nicest kids in the shore…DRAMA FREE PROGRAM KID.
THIS IS SOOOO COOL AND FUNNY…LOVE IT MISS McGARVEY
OMG THIS IS SOOOOO GOOOD…..WHY I LOVE SPORTS BABY! https://t.co/ckplog4mRM

This application is a continuation of Ser. No. 08/270,752, filed Jul. 5, 1994, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,645,049 which was a continuation-in-part of Ser. No. 07/973,280, filed Nov. 9, 1992, abandoned.
Breathing problems due to alergies, asthma, etc. are widespread. It is known that such problems can be helped with inhalation of appropriate medication, such as a beta agonist. Small cartridges containing such medication are provided. Each cartridge has a valve which when activated dispenses a predetermined quantity of medication as a spray. Such devices are known as metered dose inhalers (MDI). Such metered dose inhalers are rather inefficient in delivering the medication to the patient. It is known that provision of some sort of an inhalation chamber between the MDI and the patient's mouth materially improves delivery to the patient. One such device that has met rather considerable commercial success is disclosed and claimed in Nowacki et al U.S. Pat. No. 4,470,412.
Further problems are encountered with delivery of antiasthmatic medication to children. With adults in otherwise reasonably good health the patient generally can be relied upon to handle the matter himself, or to communicate with a healthcare provider. However, children, particularly infants, cannot readily follow directions, and often cannot communicate with a healthcare provider. Accordingly, efforts have been made so that a healthcare provider can readily observe whether a small child or infant is properly inhaling and exhaling, and thereby taking in the necessary medication. Two inhalers for this purpose are shown in Nowacki et al U.S. Pat. No. 4,809,692, and in Nowacki et al U.S. Pat. No. 4,832,015. It has been found in practice that anxious mothers often produce false readings with infants and other small children, and it further has been found that producing requisite plastic moldings at a commercially acceptable cost has been difficult.
In the last two U.S. patents noted above a small mask is attached to the exit end of tithe aerosolizing chamber to engage an infant's face to ensure proper movement of the vaporized or aerosolized medication from the chamber into the patient's mouth and nose. Such mask is generally made of a plastic or rubber material. In the first of these two patents a whistle is provided that operates upon inhalation or exhalation of the patient (or both) so that a sound will be produced that can be observed by a healthcare provider. However, the sound is not very loud, and is sometimes indiscernable in conditions of relatively high ambient noise levels. In the second of such two patents a bubble of thinner material is formed integral with the mask, and is intended to move in and out with inhalation and exhalation. The bubble must be thin enough to flex readily, but not so thin as to tear or otherwise fracture. Molding of the mask to produce a relatively thick mask, and the extremely thin integral bubble is difficult.
It will be recognized that a person who is elderly, or who is sick, or who is in some manner incapacitated may present many of the same problems of communicating with or being observed by a healthcare provider as with infants.
In accordance with the principles of the present invention it is an object thereof to provide a mask for inhalation of medication, such as asthmatic medication, which has an exhalation valve that is closed upon rest or upon inhalation, but which discernably moves to an open position upon exhalation by the patient.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide an exhalation valve in a medication mask which is closed at rest or on inhalation, and which is readily observable as being closed, and which positively opens in a readily discernable manner upon exhalation, which valve is simple and positive, and readily produced at low cost.
In carrying out the principles of the present invention a pediatric mask is provided such as in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,809,692 and 4,832,015 mentioned above. The preferred material for molding such mask is silicone rubber. This material can be autoclaved for sterilization, and is well accepted by the medical profession and governmental bodies that might have to approve of the mask. The mask is translucent, and hence it is possible to see at least a limited distance therethrough. In a preferred form of the invention a valve member is also molded of silicone rubber and is assembled with the balance of the mask by means of an insert and pull operation, with no added fastener being required. In a second form of the invention the valve is molded as an integral part of the mask. Other types of observable one-way air valves are contemplated but the two herein are sufficient for illustration.
The invention will best be under-stood with reference to the following specification when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 is a side view of a preferred form of mask having an exhalation valve therein;
FIG. 2 is a view taken from the right side of FIG. 1, comprising an end view of the mask;
FIG. 3 is a view similar to FIG. 2 but before installation of the valve;
FIG. 4 is a sectional view of the valve and a portion of the mask on an enlarged scale as taken along the line 4--4 in FIG. 3;
FIG. 5 is an end view of the valve and adjacent portion of the mask as taken from the right end of FIG. 4 on a further enlarged scale;
FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the mask;
FIG. 7 is a side view on an enlarged scale of the closure member of the valve;
FIG. 8 is a view of the valve closure member as taken from the right side of FIG. 7;
FIG. 9 is an axial sectional view of a second embodiment of the mask;
FIG. 9a is a figure similar to FIG. 9, and representing an additional part.
FIG. 10 is a perspective view of the mask of FIG. 9 as taken from above and the front end:
FIG. 11 is a fragmentary right end view of the valve portion of the mask of FIG. 9 as taken substantially along the line 11--11 in FIG. 9; and
FIG. 12 is a top view of the mask of FIG. 9.
Turning now to the drawings in greater particularity, and first to FIGS. 1-8, there will be seen a cylindrical aerosolization chamber 20 (FIG. 1). This chamber is only shown in part, since it may be the same as that shown in Nowacki et al U.S. Pat. No. 4,470,412 or in Foley et al U.S. Pat. No. 5,012,803, except that the exhalation ports in the aerosolization chamber are deleted. The aerosolization chamber is molded of a semi-rigid plastic, and the exit end thereof is inserted within a gripping ring 22 at the upstream end of a mask 24 molded of suitable material which is sufficiently pliable to conform to an infant's face. A preferred material is translucent silicone rubber. The mask includes a first frustoconical portion 26 of rather shallow taper integral with the ring 22, and a second or downstream portion 28 of frustoconical shape of greater taper. The outer edge 30 (the left edge in FIG. 1) is open, and air and medication flow through the chamber 20 and into the mask as indicated by the arrows 33. The inner surface of the ring 22 is cylindrical and is of small enough diameter to grip the rear end of the aerosolization chamber 20. The mask is circular in outline or cross section, with the exception of a nosepiece 32 and a valve 34, both of which are formed integral with the mask save for an operating or closure member in the valve to be noted hereinafter. The nosepiece 32 extends substantially from end to end of the rearward or portion of greater taper 28, with the frustoconical portion 28 opening radially into the nosepiece. The nosepiece has an outer edge 36 substantially parallel to the corresponding outer surface of the frustoconical portion 28 adjacent to the nosepiece. The nosepiece is substantially an inverted having legs 38 joined together by an arcuate portion 40 which includes the outer edge 36. At the forward or upstream end the lowest portion of nosepiece 32 is terminated by a vertical wall 42. (The use of "upstream" is intended to refer relative to the air and medication movement through the aerosolization chamber 20 and into the mask 24, as indicated by the arrows 33.)
Forwardly or upstream of wall 42 there is a boxlike housing 44 extending outwardly first the mask body and closed off therefrom by a portion of the first frust conical portioni 26 and forming a floor 46 to the valve body or housing. Walls 48 extend substantially vertically outwardly from the frustoconical portion 26, and taper inwardly at 50 to a flat roof 52. The upstream end of the valve body 44 is open at 54, and the downstream end of the housing is integrally sealed to the wall 42.
The wall 42 is provided with a small central opening 56 and with a pair of arcuate openings 58 concentric with and spaced horizontally from the smaller central opening 56.
A valve closure member 60 is seen best in FIGS. 7 and 8, and includes a circular head 62. The head is molded so as to be convex on the outer surface 64, and concave on the undersurface 66. Inwardly or rearwardly from the convex inner surface 66 a stem 68 extends rearwardly along the axis of the head 62. The stem somewhat closer to the undersurface 66 than to the outer end 70 of the stem is provided with an integral annular ring or enlargement 72 having a semicircular cross section.
The diameter of the stem 68 is exactly the same as the diameter of the central hole 56, and the distance from the undersurface 66 of the head 62 to the confronting edge of the enlargement 72 is the same as, or very slightly less than the thickness of the wall 42. Accordingly, to assemble the valve head 60 with the mask the end of the stem 70 is pushed through the hole 56 from the upstream surface of the wall 42. Since the enlargement 72 is spaced closer to the under-surface 66 of the valve head than it is to the outer end 70 of the stem, the outer end 70 projects through the wall 42 by the time the enlargement 72 engages the front surface of the wall. The stem adjacent the outer end 70 thus can be grasped and pulled through the hole 56. Stretching of the stem 68 somewhat reduces its diameter. The enlargement 72 is squashed inwardly by the hole 56, while the hole 56 is somewhat enlarged on a temporary basis by the enlargement 72. Thus, the enlargment 72 moves through the wall to abut the rear surface thereof as shown in FIG. 4 to hold the valve member 60 in place. The undersurface 66 of the valve head 62 is flattened against the flat front surface of the wall 42 as shown in FIG. 4. Accordingly, no air can pass through the valve structure from the upstream end (the right end in FIG. 4, for example) into the mask. However, when the infant exhales the pressure within the mask is increased. This increased pressure cannot cause backflow into the aerosolization chamber 20 due to the provision of a one-way valve 92, as shown in FIG. 9a near the exit end (downstream end) of the aerosolization chamber. However, the air pressure passes air through the arcuate openings 58, flexing the head 62 away from the arcuate openings 58 as shown in broken lines in FIG. 4, thereby permitting exhalation by the infant. Subsequent rest or inhalation by the infant returns the interior of the mask to ambient air pressure or below, and the valve head 62 again flattens against the wall 42.
Flexure of the valve head 62 over the openings 58 is somewhat as if there were two doors pivoted about one or more vertical axes passing through or adjacent to the smaller hole 56. Such movement readily can be seen by a healthcare provider (or the infant's mother) looking into the valve body through the open end 54, or looking through the translucent walls 48, 52 of the valve body. Thus, observation of exhalation is positively assured, and there cannot be exhalation unless there is first inhalation. Thus, it is readily ascertained that the infant is breathing and inhaling the desired medication. All of the parts are large enough to resist rupture or tearing without difficulty, and are readily molded. Installation of the valve member is quick and simple, and adds very little to the overall cost of the mask. No particular close tolerances must be held to provide an integral part of the mask that must flex as has been done in at least some of the prior art.
A modification of the invention is shown in FIGS. 9-12. Many of the parts are similar to those heretofore shown and described, and are identified by the use of similar numerals with the addition of the suffix a to avoid repetition of disclosure. The mask 24a is in most respects substantially the same as that disclosed and claimed in the aforesaid U.S. Pat. No. 4,832,015, but omits the flexible bubble previously used as an indicator of breathing by an infant.
An exhalation valve 34a is molded integrally with the remainder of the mask. It opens at its rear into the nosepiece 40a, and is of the type known as a duckbill valve. It includes a forwardly extending generally cylindrical section 76 tapering inwardly at a thinning frustoconical section 78 to a reduced diameter cylindrical section 80. The duckbill valve 34a then steps inwardly at 82 to a thinned forwardly projecting bill 84 terminating at a flat nose 86 having a slit 88 (FIG. 11) extending horizontally across it. The slit 88 is normally closed as shown by the solid line in FIG. 11. Upon inhalation pressure within the mask is reduced below ambient pressure, and the thinned side portions 84 adjacent the flat nose 86 tend to come together further to close the valve to prevent ingress of air. However, upon exhalation the slit 88 bows outwardly as shown by the broken lines 90 in FIGS. 9 and 11, whereby air readily exits from the exhalation valve 34a.
Both forms of the invention as herein shown and described positively prevent ingress of air through the exhalation valve, and afford egress thereof at very little pressure above ambient pressure, less than 0.50 inch of water. Since the second form of the invention in FIGS. 9-12 has the entire valve formed as an integral part of the mask no assembly step is required in producing the mask. However, molding is somewhat more difficult. In the first and preferred form of the mask as shown in FIGS. 1-8 the assembly step is extremely simple, and does not require much additional labor. Molding is greatly simplified. As has been noted earlier the enlargement 72 on the valve stem 68 avoids the necessity of any separate fastener to hold the umbrella-like valve in installed position, yet is easily moved to installed position. The valve in the first embodiment also opens readily on exhalation with less than 0.50 inch of water internal pressure above ambient, and provides positive closure against entrance of air upon inhalation. It will be appreciated that it is not desired to have air enter upon inhalation as it would dilute the medication being brought in from the aerosolization chamber 20. Exit of air through the two openings or ports 58 provides for passage of a generous amount of exhaled air.
The mask and valve are intended primarily for use with an infant or young child, and in both instances the opening of the valve is readily seen by a healthcare provider, either professional or a parent.
The mask is intended primarily for use with infants and small or young children. Approximate dimensions for the mask are just over 3 inches diameter across the rear, open end 30 and just over two inches from this rear open end 30 to the front of the ring 22 gripping the aerosolization chamber. The inside diameter of the ring 22a is approximately 1.4 inches, while the wall thickness is on the order of 0.08 inch. The diameter of the valve head 62 is 0.440 inch and the thickness is 0.015 inch. The length of the valve stem 68 is 0.280 inch from the underside of the head to the end 70. The radius of the valve stem is 0.040 inch, except at the enlargement 72 where the outside diameter is 0.070. The radius of the enlargement (in axial section of the stem) is 0.015 inch.
As noted earlier, the valve opens with a very slight air pressure. An inhalation pressure of 0.5 inch of water below ambient pressure is sufficient to open the valve. Furthermore, the valve is recessed sufficiently as to avoid damage by searching fingers. Damage to the valve that would inhibit operation is thereby positively avoided. The valve is recessed by at least the diameter of the valve.
The mask fits very closely to the face, and the nosepiece adds little volume. Thus the total volume of the mask is not very great. Accordingly, the medication in the mask, including the nosepiece, is a minimum. The amount of air exhaled is not very great, and previously inhaled air with medication stays for inhalation by the patient. This is an important feature of the present invention. Air held in the mask by the inhalation valve (provided by the valve in the aerosolization chamber), and by the exhalation valve in the mask is retained for a second inhalation. No medication is wasted. With each breath the medication laden air is refreshed for further inhalation by the patient, and is reinforced with the addition of fresh medication laden air.
With every breath, fresh air laden with medication enters the mask from the aerosolization chamber. This air enters the mask adjacent the mouth and nose. There is very little dead space withing the mask. Thus substantially all of the medication laden air is available for inhalation. The medication laden air is retained within the mask by the inlet and outlet valves is available for further inhalation. The amount expelled from the mask by exhalation is just equal to fresh air with medication drawn into the air by inhalation, so that the medication is held close to the patient's face for subsequent inhalation. Very little is wasted.
As noted earlier there are some adult patients who must inhale medication, but are for one reason or another incapable of handling an aerosolization chamber and MDI personally. A similar mask of slightly larger size would be in order for such patients, with a healthcare provider or friend to observe the opening of the valve upon exhalation, and closure upon inhalation.
Particularly in the preferred form of the invention the exhalation valve is located directly adjacent the nostrils, and thereby forms a short path for exhalation from the mask.
The specific embodiments of the invention as herein shown and described are for illustrative purposes only. Various changes in structure will no doubt occur to those skilled in the art, and will be understood as forming a part of the present invention insofar as they fall within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

On Tuesday, Facebook finally released its next attempted Snapchat killer, Slingshot. We say finally, because the guys at Zuckerberg HQ bungled the launch last week when they accidentally released the app before it was ready.
Now that it's here, we can take a closer look at it. So what is SlingShot, anyway? In a nutshell, it's a quid pro quo Snapchat, and not much else. The basic principle is the same: send friends (or enemies) photos and videos that self-destruct, James Bond-style, after a set number of seconds. The catch here is that, in order to view the content, you have to send something back.
The app itself is clean, simple, and easy to figure out. Reminiscent of Facebook's Paper app, it's easy to set up and start using. Thankfully, no Facebook or any other type of account is needed: just your phone number. Once in, settings are barebones and straightforward, and it works: take a selfie or a video, doodle on it or write a caption and "Sling" it to whomever you wish. Then wait for a Sling back, and so on.
It's interesting to see if this wrench in the machine will work with teens. After all, they make up the largest percentage of Snapchat's user base. Teens love the concept and Facebook has been eyeing the service ever since it started gaining traction. After a failed three million dollar purchase attempt, Facebook has been hard at work creating its own version of Snapchat.
The first variant of their "SnapChat killer" was Poke, a Facebook-branded carbon copy of the app. After dismal reception, Zuckerberg's Creative Labs division (which also made Paper) went to work on their next attempt to bring Snapchat down, the aforementioned SlingShot.
Look, this isn't rocket science. Facebook is obviously sore after Snapchat turned them down, and they're sharpening knives. But will this "I'll show you mine if you show me yours" approach work with Snapchat's core audience? Teens are notoriously averse to Facebook, and although Slingshot pretends to be a standalone app, Facebook's fingerprints aren't easily wiped away.

TWO clubs from the Irish Republic, Sligo Rovers and Bray Wanderers, are set to join next season's Irn-Bru Cup.
The fifth and sixth-placed finishers in last season's Airtricity League have been invited to enter the tournament as part of the Scottish FA's move to expand the competition.
For the first time this season, teams from outside Scotland have competed in what formerly the Scottish Challenge Cup, with The New Saints reaching a semi-final showdown at St Mirren this Sunday.
Bala Town, as well as Crusaders and Linfield from Northern Ireland, were all seeded to enter the competition in the last 16 which took place in October.
In the other semi-final, Queen of the South host Dundee United.

BEER WE GO: Ukip are on the march, says Nigel Farage
BEER-SWILLING Nigel Farage believes he is on the march to Westminster.
He was celebrating after Ukip crushed the main parties to elect its first MP.
The anti-EU party sparked a political earthquake as Tory defector Douglas Carswell thrashed the Conservatives in the Clacton by-election in Essex.
Ukip polled 21,113 votes while the Tories came a poor second with only 8,709.
The party almost won a second seat in Heywood and Middleton, winning 11,016 votes – just 617 less than victorious Labour's 11,633 in their northern heartland.
Jubilant Mr Farage – who celebrated by downing pints in a boozer until 5am – warned his political rivals: "I'm coming to get you."
"Something big is happening here. People want real change"Nigel Farage
And he predicted a wave of defections from both the Labour and Conservative ranks.
"I have had conversations with backbench Conservatives and with backbench Labour MPs," he said.
"Something big is happening here. People want real change."
Shell-shocked Prime Minister David Cameron said Ukip's surge is playing into Ed Miliband's hands.
He said: "If you see a big Ukip vote, you will end up with Ed Miliband as Prime Minister and Labour in power."

Homewatch Caregivers in Crystal Lake, Il is a wonderful agency. One of my clients was in need of companion care. Her social support system was limited and she seemed to be regressing in terms of independence. Homewatch provided a fantastic companion that assisted this client in getting back into the community to shop, get her hair done and get to social activities. I highly recommend Homewatch Caregivers in Crystal Lake, Illinois.

Dementia care will become one of the most important needs in the United States health care system for the next quarter century. Over 5 million people in the USA have dementia today, in just five years the number of Americans with Alzheimer's will jump to nearly 8 million, and by 2050 the number is projected to more than double to 16 million.
Our knowing how to care for people living with dementia is requisite for our caregivers and the most important thing they learn is that no two people are alike. The care for someone with dementia needs to be flexible and fluid. Becoming a caregiver for a person with dementia means letting go of norms and expectations of how this person used to be. They are forever changed and the caregiver must adapt as well. This is why we see so many people reaching out to us to help with dementia care for their loved one--our caregivers don't bring the memory of how that person used to be and instead simply accepts them as how they are today.

I don't know about you, but I'm more than excited about Make Music Day Salem coming around again. Last year's event was one of the most enjoyable times I've had in Salem. And I've lived here a long, long time. It was so good the City of Salem bestowed their "Distinguished Project Award" upon organizers Mark Green, Doug Hoffman, Carlee Wright and Brian Hart. (You may recognize Mark Green from RiverCity Rock Academy, Doug Hoffman from the wildly popular nightclub The Space Concert Club, and Brian Hart and Carlee Wright from bringing TedTalks to Salem, among many other things.) In fact, the head organizers for the North American organization said that Salem had the most successful first year. And yeah…it was amazing.
Ok, wait. Maybe you missed it last year, so let's get you caught up. Make Music Day is an all-day music festival which started in France in 1982 and occurs on the Summer Solstice, June 21st, each year. France's Fête De La Musique has since spread worldwide to 700 cities in 120 countries, even into the United States. New York was the first city to bring this holiday to life in the States about 10 years ago. Since then the festival has spread to over 30 cities in the US. Salem again joins the celebration on Wednesday, June 21, 2017. It is a one-day event where free, live musical performances in Salem are part of a global celebration of music.
Again, Salem's event last year was off the chain. There ended up being over 70 performers participating in over 30 venues around town. There was literally music everywhere. My personal favorite were the performances that took place in the alleyways later on at night. The people of Salem didn't want it to end. Citizens were involved with their city and I heard more than once, "Why doesn't this happen more than once a year?" So far, it doesn't. So mark Wednesday, June 21st on your calendar and don't miss it.
This works best when everybody participates. The festival needs venues, performers and volunteers to make this another amazing event. It doesn't matter what skill level—everyone is welcome: solo performers, bands, DJs, school choirs and bands, orchestras—EVERYBODY. Please join in the celebration and sign up early so you can be added to the posters and t-shirts. Please go to www.MakeMusicDay.org/Salem and click on the "Participate" link. The website is pretty slick and does much of the work for you. It matches up bands and venues depending on parameters that you set. It's like a music matchmaker for Salem.
This year the festival will be even more focused on the downtown area. Pack a picnic lunch, load up your bike and don't forget your umbrella for rain or shine. Salem will be out in the streets celebrating the solstice and our shared gift of music.
