- COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease)
- Asthma
- Cystic Fibrosis
- TB (tuberculosis)
- Pertussis (whooping cough)
Rib Fractures With Pneumothorax |
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc. |
Risk Factors
- Spontaneous pneumothorax occurs most often in tall, thin men who are between the ages of 20-40
- Smoking
- Having a family history of pneumothorax
- Having other lung diseases such as COPD, asthma, cystic fibrosis, tuberculosis, or pertussis
- Suffering a trauma injury to the chest
- Infants who require ventilator assistance are at a higher risk of developing tension pneumothorax
- More men than women experience pneumothorax
- Sudden, sharp pain in the chest that becomes worse during coughing or taking deep breaths
- Acute shortness of breath
- Fever (mild)
- Fatigue
- Tightness in the chest
- Rapid heartbeat
- Bluish color of the skin due to a lack of oxygen
- Flaring of the nostrils
- Feelings of anxiety , stress, and tension
- Hypotension, or low blood pressure
- A distended abdomen
- Chest x-ray —may be performed to determine if there is air outside the lung.
- CT scan —may be performed instead.
- Ultrasound —an alternative option for those who can't be moved, commonly used in trauma cases.
- EKG—reads electrical activity in the heart.
- Pulse oximetry—noninvasive way to measure your oxygen status.
Chest Tube Insertion
- In this procedure, the doctor will insert a small tube between the ribs into the pleural cavity where the pneumothorax is located. Before the procedure, you may receive sedation, your doctor will then numb the area where the tube is to be inserted using local anesthesia. Next, he or she will make an incision, insert the tube, and connect it to a bottle or canister that contains sterile liquid. A suction mechanism is also attached to encourage drainage. The tube is held in place by a suture or a piece of surgical tape.
- The chest tube will remain in place until x-rays show that the air or gas has drained from the pleural space and the lung is once again fully expanded. This can take several days. No further medication is necessary, although sometimes antibiotics are prescribed to ward off possible infection from the tube.
- Not smoking.
- Wearing a seatbelt when in a motor vehicle to help prevent accident-related chest trauma.
- Being aware of the symptoms associated with pneumothorax if you have another lung disease.
- If you have a history of pneumothorax, it is often recommended that you avoid SCUBA diving.

A needlecraft kit is a convenient way to engage with this ancient craft - and not end up with surplus materials.
Whether it's cross stitch, tapestry or any of the other needlecraft specialities, you can create a perfect gift for a loved one; a lovely picture for your home; a family heirloom.
Most recently added needlecraft kits
Other Sections ...
As well as being a relaxing occupation, stitching is a way of meeting likeminded people through local needlework groups and embroiderers' guilds.
And once you finish a project you will have a work of art with something of yourself in it!
Needlecraft kits come in a bewildering array of shapes, sizes and qualities.
All are complete with fabric, thread/floss, needle, chart, instructions, and beads or other embellishments if needed.
Some even have a display frame or bell-pull hangers.
All you need to supply is time and effort, although tools - like a sewing hoop - can make your craft much easier.

7) Carpet in the bathroom: One wonders really how this was ever popular, but for a while carpeted bathrooms were done. The first rule of home staging is that cleanliness sells and there is no way that a twenty-year old wall-to-wall in a bathroom will ever look or feel clean. Today's bathrooms are spa-like in their Spartan cleanliness with little use of fabric at all. Rip out the carpet; new linoleum is a better choice if wood or tile isn't in the budget.

Finally, a playoff system for College Football. Everyone may be cheering, but is it enough? It is a commonly known fact that the complaining will begin for teams ranked five through eight once the top four are selected for the playoffs.
This past season it was clear who the top four teams were so it would have been an easy selection. The questions will arise when there are more than four legitimate championship contenders. Everything comes down to money. The amount of money for the bowl games compared to the playoff and bowl game combination is a major difference.
What the average fan forgets to realize is the amount of time that the playoff system would take. Teams that are in the later bowls miss class time as it is. So an eight or ten team playoff is out of the question because it would take too long and the athletes would miss too much class time.
Personally I think a six team playoff would be the best option. The one and two seeds would get a first week bye and three would play six and four would play five. The winner of those will play one and two. This would create a total of five games which would make it perfect for the big game to be on New Years Day which every college football fan wants.
The National Championship being on a Monday at 8:30pm is a waste of time. If they moved it to New Years Day at 6:00pm like the Super Bowl then I firmly believe there would be a large increase in viewers. It is early enough where viewers don't have to be worried about being up super late and getting to work and school early the next morning.
The five games that would come from the six team playoff would be the Fiesta Bowl, Sugar Bowl, Orange Bowl, Rose Bowl, and finally the National Championship. This way those major bowl games hold an even larger importance then they did without the playoff system.
Another positive for the six team playoff is that there is less chance of discrepancy from the number six team compared to the number seven team in relation to the number four team compared to the number five team.
No matter what there will be complaining from the teams that just miss the cut, but if there is a way to minimize the complaints it would be by increasing the number of teams in the playoff without making it too many where it becomes an inconvenience to the student athletes.
Regardless, it is about time a playoff system will take over and it is certainly a step in the right direction. I can see some changes being made after the first few seasons to improve the system but at least every fan can be relieved that the BCS era is arguably over.

The drawing will be in DXF, CDR, and SVG, so the dimensions are in the file. If someone wants to label all of them that's great with me.
The drawing is intended for a CNC router, not a laser - because a laser must cut all the way through, it cannot effectively pocket.
This will be difficult with a handsaw but probably not bad with a scroll saw and router. Since it is just vector art, it can be printed onto paper and pasted onto wood.

Would setting up the SecurityContextHolder to transcend all threads, or just spawned threads, be a viable solution?
According to the documentation, you can configure the SecurityContextHolder to behave differently from the default (which uses ThreadLocal to store the SecurityContext, as this forum discussion assumes). Options include SecurityContextHolder.MODE_INHERITABLETHREADLOCAL which would propogate the security context to spawned threads.

The New York State Softball playoffs are in full swing- no pun intended- and two Central New York teams are still in the hunt for a championship this weekend.
The Cicero-North Syracuse softball team beat capitol region power Shenendehowa 7-2 on Tuesday. Sydney O'Hara blasted a 2-run homerun, and pitched a complete game with nine strikeouts in the victory. She also was walked three times. Lindsey Silfer drove in a pair of runs and Morgan Phillips and Cassie Franklin each brought one runner in. With the win C-NS punches its ticket to the state semifinals.
The way Hamilton advanced in Class D is pretty extraordinary.
The Emerald Knights beat Heuvelton 27-2 in the quarterfinals, all started by an 11-run first inning. Hamilton also advances to the state semifnals.
Unfortunately, two local squads did see their seasons come to a close.
After winning its first Section III Championship ever in softball, Christian Brothers Academy fell to Windsor of Section IV. The Brothers season ends with a record of 14-7, but certainly everyone will remember their charge as an 11-seed to the title in the Class B Section III playoffs.
Sandy Creek also saw its season come to a close with a 4-2 loss to Greene from Section IV in the quarterfinals. Greene scored four in the top of the first, and it was enough to carry them to victory.
Jamesville-Dewitt plays in the lone state playoff game in softball on Wednesday. The Red Rams "host" South Glens Falls at 5:00 p.m. at the Gillette Road Complex.

Ex-Wesleyan Public Safety officer accused of theft
MIDDLETOWN >> A 34-year-old former Wesleyan Public Safety officer was arrested Monday morning in connection with a recent string of thefts from campus buildings during winter break.
Through a series of internal investigations beginning in late December, Public Safety discovered an employee had been stealing items from campus buildings and dormitories. The employee has since been fired, university officials said.
Rogelio Figueroa, 34, of 32 Botsworth Hill Road, Newtown, turned himself in to Middletown Police after learning of an active warrant for his arrest on third-degree larceny charges, according to Middletown police. He is scheduled to appear in court Feb. 11. Surety bond was set at $5,000.
In an all-campus email, the school administration announced Monday that the individual had acted alone and was now in police custody. The email did not identify the person who had been arrested or elaborate on the nature of the thefts. However, school officials confirmed that Figueroa has worked at the university and was recently terminated.
"Any abuse of trust at Wesleyan is troubling for our community," read the email, "but this matter is now appropriately in the hands of Connecticut's judicial system."
Lauren Rubenstein, a university spokesperson, declined to identity of the former employee and comment beyond the official email.
Since returning to campus in early January, during and after while students were off campus for winter break, students have reported items stolen from campus buildings and dormitories, only the most recent in a rash of robberies at the university. Administrators and Middletown police could not confirm what reported thefts had been perpetrated by Figueroa.
Jacob Eichengreen, a Wesleyan senior and a manager of student-run café Espwesso, had two touch-screen computers valued at over $1,000 stolen from the coffee shop, located in the Albritton Center, over the course of last summer. Though Eichengreen does not know who took the computers, he said one had been locked in a storage space only accessible to Public Safety and campus maintenance organization Physical Plant, while the other latched to a counter.
"When you lock things in a space that is theoretically only accessible to P-safe and Physical Plant," he said, "it calls into question the ability of students to pursue activities without having to worry about losing their property to the people who are supposed to be protecting them."
Third-degree larceny is a Class D felony for thefts of property between $1,000 and $5,000.

Excerpts from "Working Class Hero John Ratzenberger"
by amanda | June 1, 2011 | In Industrial Tsunami, Manufacturing Crisis, Pixar, tinkering kids | No Comments
By Mike Drummond
Full story appears in Inventors Digest, June 2011 print edition.
The former Cheers star and veteran voice of Pixar films is on a mission to revitalize U.S. manufacturing.
"The reason the world is free is because of American strength," he says. "And America's strength is based on manufacturing. And manufacturing is based on invention.
"Every single industry, and there's no exception to this rule, started with one person inventing one thing. And every single one of those people started off as a child tinkering."
In his estimation, there's not nearly enough tinkering going on these days, which he fears will have dire long-term consequences.
America, he says, has lost its manufacturing mojo. There aren't enough students entering vocational schools or the industrial trades, he says. With a dearth of wrench-savvy workers, there aren't enough people to repair the nation's crumbling bridges, buildings and water systems, let alone operate the gears of America's mighty military machinery.
The 64-year-old Ratzenberger, who once was a carpenter and is the son of a factory worker and truck driver, says the nation is facing an economic "tragedy of epic proportion" stemming from a decline in U.S. manufacturing and the men and women who know how to run, make and fix things.
"We may never recover if we lose our manufacturing edge to other countries," he says. "The pervasive impact of this crisis has the potential to turn America into a second-rate economy."
The work owes its origins to the John Ratzenberger's Made in America, which aired on the Travel Channel between 2004 and 2008 and honored American inventors, factory workers and the like.
That show also inspired the book he co-authored, We've Got it Made in America, A Common Man's Salute to an Uncommon Country, as well as the genre of blue-collar reality shows, including Dirty Jobs, Deadliest Catch, Ice Road Truckers, among others.
There's little reason to doubt Ratzenberger's latest media project won't succeed.
"You know there are 137 cities in the United States with water systems that are failing, where the water pipes are over 100 years old," he says. "There are 250,000 bridges in disrepair and not enough people to fix them.
"The reason Third World countries are Third World," he says, "is because nothing works. Basically, that's where we're headed."

- With proper care the wreath will last up to one year.

By: Elisabeth MacNamaraEditorial Note: This blog post was originally published on my Huffington Post blog
On the Road: Florida
By: Elisabeth MacNamaraIt was a quick trip to Florida, but an important one – I was there for the last two days of voter registration in the state. A court decision rejecting efforts by politicians to limit organizations like the League from registering voters unleashed a flurry of activity over the summer. Due to the strict new voter registration rules, the Leagues in Florida did not hold voter registration drive, therefore there was a lot of ground to make up when they began registering again. League members around the state registered thousands of new voters and helped others update their registration.

I met many fantastic people during my visit in Texas. Together with Erik Presley, CEO Eli 360, we recorded this podcast on social media´s contribution to thinning global borders (10.5)
A few highlights:
- Be proud of who you are. Find people who inspire you. Social media enables you. Stay positive. The world will be yours.
- Keep the phone off when you are in a meeting and with your family. I personally use social media so that I can spend as much quality time as possible with my family.
- When you drink a coffee with your best friend. Keep the phone in your pocket. OK to take a photo to save the moment and tweet about it.
- Honesty is key.
- Find the community that share your passion. Listen, follow trends and start asking questions.
Thank you ACU for letting the use of the Learning Studio to record this podcast. What a great place to communicate witht the world, create digital storytelling and magic. If you want to see what has happened during the year that the AT&T studio has been at ACU here is a video:

Research Proven, Reading Success.
The PCI Reading Programs are a research-based curriculum created specifically to teach students with developmental disabilities, autism, and significant learning disabilities how to read. Levels One and Two teach 280 sight words and "real-world" nouns and verbs through a comprehensive system of repetition, "hands-on" practice, controlled-vocabulary reading, and high-interest activities. Nonreaders become successful readers word by word, reading 42 engaging, full-color books along the way.
These accessories and workbooks are included in the Level One and Level Two Print programs and may also be purchased separately as additional tools for use with classroom activities, for teaching in small groups, or replacing a damaged accessory.
Plastic Viewer The plastic viewer focuses the student's attention when working on a Word Building Lesson or taking a comprehensive test. The open Reading Box on the plastic viewer reveals only the word or words the teacher wants the student to identify, touch, or say aloud.
Plastic Card Tray When introducing new Word Cards or going through a Guided Word Practice, the plastic card tray is used to display each card clearly for the day's lesson. The teacher can then demonstrate how the cards work by placing them on the card tray in the order which the words will be learned. For example: "this," "is," "a," and "home." Students may also build phrases and sentences they are learning by using Word and Picture Cards on the plastic card tray.
Trace & Read Workbooks The workbook is to tactually reinforce the look and shape of the new word in the student's mind. Following each Word Building Lesson, the target word is tactually reinforced using the trace and read technique in the workbook. Each workbook page includes five lines in one of two formats: a combination of words and pictures or all words. On each line, the new word appears in dotted lines. The student traces over these lines with a pen or pencil. A student who does not have the fine motor skills to grasp a pen or pencil may trace the words with his or her finger.

Let me just start with a fact.
I am a huge fan of Witcher universe ever since i discovered it trough the first game.
I love the story , i love the character , i love the universe. I have read every piece translated to english. Even watched translated polish TV series.
Witcher is my Star Wars
Naturally I was more than excited about the sequel to the first game.
But not only because of the Witcher story, but also because of CDR.
As a huge RPG fan. I have felt what could be only be described as fall of RPGs.
"Dumbing-down" and "Consolisation"
CDR has set them selves to right the wrongs and bring back the honor to RPGs
So , now that I played the whole game on hardest difficulty and emerged victorious - let me tell you (imho) what did CDR accomplish .
First thing first. And without no question the main accomplishment of Witcher 2
is its graphic. And I am not talking about the engine and number of polygons. Although it can easily rival Crysis 2.
I am talking about art direction. Whatever fault can be found in Witcher 2 , there is none in astounding work the graphic artists of CDR done on Witcher 2.
The game is visual masterpiece.
In a way that will rarely be matched.
The amount of detail. Design of every wall, house , stone , tree. Wherever you look. Armor , clothes , interiors exteriors. I am artist myself , and could only gasp in awe and think "How did they invest so much into it"
No mater what games come in future. And what rendering engine. Someone will need to design the meshes and textures. And if they surpass artists of CDR. They will surely get my hat off.
Voice acting and animation are both following closely. And are perfect. I wont sing big praises for them except that you can not find any fault to them. And they are both extremely high quality.
But graphic, animation and sound does not make the game.
Gameplay. Or at least combat gameplay. Was a source of critic in Witcher 1.
I personally enjoyed it. But CDR decided to change it.
They often stated their love for playstation game "Demon Souls". The game that was regarded as back to hardcore roots , but sadly will never see PC version.
People that played it claim Witcher 2 combat is close and similar.
Well I am RPG gamer but I also consider my self a gamer. And love the good action gameplay. I played Witcher 2 on hard difficulty. And enjoyed every single moment. Combat was mildly difficult at beginning and became perhaps too easy towards the end. But it was fun. And I was thirsty for more.
Some people (ah the gamers today) complained the game is to hard.
I found it not much harder than any other RPG. I might say, even too easy.
For example I expected , on hard difficulty I will need to relay on potions. Yet I rarely ever need to use them.But all in all i did find combat system much fun.
But lets go on to the bread and butter of RPG : The Ruleset - mechanics
In the beginning the mechanics gave impression of beautiful complexity.
But as the combat I found it a bit too forgiving. I managed to delve in all 3 threes and take best out of them.
Alchemy had a promise of complexity but it turned to be much more simplified version of W1 alchemy. With sadly broken interface.
Traps an afterthought. Crafting interesting but underdeveloped.
Next the gameplay world , and interface.
When I just started the game I was amazed how you can talk with everyone. How every NPC had unique name. And how you never knew who will give you a quest or interact.
But this grew less and less. Rarely any NPC talks to you or gives you quests. Certainly much less than in Witcher 2. World is full of empty houses and NPCs that not react to you stealing their inventories.
Drinking is gone, alcohol, many romances, storage, NPCs that get insulted and dont want to have nothing to do with you. Even great new gameplay addition stealth. Is barely used in the game.
Its clear to me that CDR simply omitted lot as they wanted to launch the game.
Nobody can blame them. They worked on W1 for such long time. And on W2 much shorter.
As for interface. There is no doubt it was made for consoles.
Again. No blame in that. It is where the money is. And they are no charity organization.
Finally lets delve on story and quests
Story reaches heights of brilliance. Rear seen in RPGs.
Its like Alpha Protocol met Mass Effect 2 and had a baby. When it works it works brilliantly.
But there is just not to much of it.
Side quests are rare. I can understand CDR decided against "kill 10 rats" and fetch quests. But the world is too beautiful , and combat too fun. So why not have more meat to it ?
Sadly the whole game feels like it could be much more.
And - perhaps this is the key impression of Witcher 2
It will leave you thirsting for more
My hope is that CDR will get back to Witcher 2 and make enhanced version.
Add more quests. Fill all the empty places that were probably meant to be filled , and surely have been written in some design document.
I would not mind to pay again for this game.
And more. DLC expansion.
And finally Witcher 3 , I cannot wait !
In summary Witcher 2 has amazing engine. A rock solid foundation for a game.
Art , gameplay , mechanics , story is simply top notch.
But its taken down by obvious rush to finish the game before it was filled.
It doesn't take nothing from game quality but it does make you think of what it could have been. And thirsting for more !
Lets hope it comes soon !!!

These pieces are the work of photographer Ikuo Kubota, who initially began his career shooting commercial images, but has since graduated to something much more beautiful.
This set of photographic artworks are taken from 'Furniture Music' - a solo exhibition of Kubota's work which has just opened at Gallery Speak For in Tokyo.
Appparently back in 2009, inspired by the timelessness of Erik Satie's Musique d'ameublement ('Furniture Music), Kubota began building a body of artwork which he felt that could infinitely be enjoyed without growing old; and ended up with a series which has an otherworldly white-on-white supended state about it.
Ordinary things, gorgeously captured.

Thankfully, I finally finished my Christmas shopping last night including all of Kevin's stocking stuffers. I left him in charge of Bodie's gifts this year so hopefully he gets the pup something good!!
Speaking of my little furbaby, I decided to link up with CMae for Tail Wagging Tuesday today to share a Christmas picture that I love of Bodie.
My friend Michelle photoshopped this gem for me a while back and it makes me laugh every time.
But to be honest, he's not that jolly. Most of the time you can find his lazy behind on Kevin's chair by the Christmas tree. Sleeping. Must be nice.
How does your furbaby celebrate the holidays?!

Love Makes A Woman
Joyce Sims
An often enticing and enchanting vocalist, Joyce Sims hasn't emerged as a disco diva with crossover appeal despite making some excellent singles. Born in Rochester, Sims formally studied music in college, learning a number of instruments. An agent introduced her to Ron Resnick of Sleeping Bag Records, who signed her in 1986. Her biggest hit was "Come Into My Life" in 1987, her only Top Ten record. But, both "(You Are) My All and All" and her remake of "Love Makes A Woman" with Jimmy Castor were finely crafted and nicely performed releases. They made the R&B Top 30, but didn't earn her enough attention to break out beyond the dance market. ~ Ron Wynn, Rovi

Some good news from gigabyte about the 6 series motherboards.
If you download and install the latest bios, your 6 series board is "ready to support the next generation Intel 22nm CPUs (LGA1155 Socket) as well as offer native support for PCI Express Gen. 3 technology, delivering maximum data bandwidth for future discrete graphics cards." This includes the the newly launched G1.Sniper 2
Nothing more than a bunch of marketing crap.
Also, the RSS bot seems broke since this is arepost form yesterday: http://www.bjorn3d.com/forum/showthr...s-motherboards.
Actually its a repost due to a typo in the headline. rss poster sees it as a "new" article if you change so much as the case of one letter. and really all the product related press releases are a bunch of marketing. but if a bios update enables new features or allows you to add stuff to your board that you couldn't when you bought it, wouldn't you like for someone to tell you about it?
The path to universal understanding starts here: Say what you mean, and mean what you say.
Should have been there from the beginning IMO since everything electronically was there to begin with.

Isabel and her team have created and tested a set of programs that help people lose weight, get the body they want and maintain it for the long term. All of the programs promote healthy and realistic eating with attainable goals and are the result of Isabel's experience working with her clients over the past 10 years. Whether you want to get started right away and push yourself by following a strict routine or implement the changes slowly at your own pace, Beyond Diet has a program that's right or you.
If you've ever needed a little support from someone in a moment of frustration or you are so excited about your accomplishments you just have to tell someone...this is the place! Share anything and everything, and get instant feedback from others on the same journey. Words of encouragement have never gone such a long way.
Need a little clarification? Worried that you might use an ingredient that will unravel all your efforts? Curious about the latest advertisement you saw on TV for quick weight loss? We're all here to help and we've created a quick and easy place to get that help. Whether it be Isabel, one of our coaches or someone else a little farther down the road to reaching their dream body, someone will have the answer you are looking for. Ever wonder what questions other people are having about the program you may not have even thought of? You can even search questions and answers other people have asked. This is the place to get even the most unusual questions answered. Don't ever be afraid to ask - we love your questions!
As part of the program, we'll supply you with delicious mouth watering recipes that you can make on your own. Even better than that? There are hundreds of recipes submitted by people just like you that we make sure fit the principles we want you to follow. Imagine if you had the best secret recipe from each person you knew, learned how to make them healthy and then compiled them all in one place. That's what you'll find in our recipe section.
The articles in this section focus on specific topics that may not be covered in the manual. These articles touch on a number of subjects including how to incorporate fat burning foods into your diet, tips for eating organic on the cheap, how to eat out and eat healthy, and more in depth information on foods like eggs, milk, and bacon.
Do you ever have the itch to ask an expert which food item is going to be the best one for you? Isabel gets asked these kinds of questions all the time, so naturally we put together an entire section informing you of her opinions on particular food and health items. It's our job to ensure you know which are the best items and foods that will help you lose weight and this is where you'll find them.
The most effective way we know to get you optimal results and reduce the work you have to do is by providing you with the best tools for the program you are currently on. These tools were specifically designed to help you reach your fat loss goals. Everything from figuring out your specific metabolism type to how many carbs, fat, and protein you should consume each day. It's our goal to make your life surrounding food easier and these tools will do just that.
Isabel shares the latest and greatest information about diet, nutrition, fitness and much much more. It is a passion of hers to keep you informed on the latest trends, whether they are good for you or just a lot of hype, and she always presents them with her fun and loving personality. The latest newsletters are always available on Beyond Diet.
