"A writer must always try to have a philosophy and he should also have a psychology and a philology and many other things. Without a philosophy and a psychology and all these various other things he is not really worthy of being called a writer. I agree with Kant and Schopenhauer and Plato and Spinoza and that is quite enough to be called a philosophy. But then of course a philosophy is not the same thing as a style."

Editor's Note: Because the 405 closure has been forecast to impact most commuters, Belmont Shore-Naples Patch enjoyed this history of the area where the Mulholland Bridge is partially coming down during the freeway closure. It is ripe with film references.
When Steven Spielberg planned the shot at the opening of E.T.-The Extra-Terrestrial—as an alien ship hovers over suburbia—he wanted it to look like the breathtaking expanse of San Fernando Valley lights that motorists see when they're coming over the Sepulveda Pass.
Ultimately, a matte painting was used for the shot, but it's clearly reminiscent of the view from the Mulholland Bridge, part of which is being replaced this weekend.
The Sepulveda Pass is not only a crucial corridor for the link between the Valley and the Westside, it's also a storied cultural icon in Los Angeles history.
The Mulholland Drive bridge is near the homes of Jack Nicholson, Pamela Anderson and Charlie Sheen.
It's the road Marlon Brando took to drive home, and part of the route James Dean drove on his final ride to the desert. It's where Michael Knight took his first ride with the talking Knight 2000 in the pilot episode of Knight Rider in 1982, and at the Sunset Boulevard exit is where O.J. Simpson ended his slow police chase in his Ford Bronco in 1994.
The 10-mile stretch between the Valley and the Westside that is being shut down is an unusually undeveloped area, interrupted only by a few private schools, religious institutions, and the Getty Museum and Skirball Cultural Center.
Between 1956 and 1968 the U.S. Army called the area LA-96C, where they watched for Soviet nuclear submarines and were ready to strike with Nike missiles (see videos in the video section above).
It's also an area noted for UFO sightings and mysterious helicopters. Actress Shirley MacLaine tells a story that she heard from comedian Lucille Ball about Ronald and Nancy Reagan arriving several hours late to a party and explaining they had an encounter with aliens along the Sepulveda Pass.
The story goes:
"Ronald Reagan told Lucy that he and Nancy were driving on Mulholland Drive when a UFO landed near their vehicle. Although this story has been told before, a number of new details were added. For example, Shirley MacLaine says Lucille Ball told her that Reagan claimed a ladder appeared and an alien climbed out of the craft. The alien told him to quit his acting work and go into politics."
One of the earliest descriptions of the passage, when it was a dirt path, was recorded on Aug. 5, 1769 by Father Juan Crespi, who stood at the precipice where the bridge now stands:
"We saw a very pleasant and spacious valley. We descended to it and stopped close to the watering place, which is a very large pool. Near it we found a large village of heathen, very friendly and docile; they offered us their seeds in baskets and other things made of rushes."
The Sepulveda Pass didn't open as a roadway for motor vehicles until 1935. Not long after that, it became a heavily-traveled link between the Valley and the coast. Soon, it linked what at one point were the two busiest crossroads in the world, the 405-101 (San Diego and Ventura freeways) to the 405-10 (San Diego and Santa Monica freeways).
Because of the busy traffic, not many movies and TV shows are allowed to film on the freeway or bridge, or anywhere near the Sepulveda Pass. Film LA's Philip Sokoloski said his office doesn't have jurisdiction to issue permits on the freeway, and rarely would it ever allow films to be shot too close to the heavily-trafficked area.
Amy Lemisch, of the California Film Commission, who does have authority to issue permits for the area in conjunction with the Department of Transportation, said, "Most of the time when people need a freeway, they go to a more remote area, not there. It's just too much of a nightmare all the way around to plan for that."
A recent permit this past December allowed the Mulholland Bridge and Sepulveda Pass area to be used for the TV show Exit 19, a crime drama for Lifetime television about a mom who is also a homicide detective. Now called The Protector, it is set in New York. according to the latest logline, so it's unclear how much of the bridge or pass will remain in the show.
In May 2008, a permit was granted for the multi-award-winning indie movie The Things We Carryabout two sisters torn apart while caring for the drug-addicted wacky mother. Some scenes are clearly shot along the streets of Studio City, and halfway through the trailer (see the video section), in a Yellow Cab, the scene in the background is the Sepulveda Pass.
Even David Lynch's Mulholland Drive didn't get too close to the actual Sepulveda Pass. In fact, only the first scene from Mulholland Drive that shows the Valley side, in the dark, is after the accident and the screenplay reads: "The cars are traveling so fast, that they seem to almost float as they fly with psychotic speed down both lanes of Mulholland Drive." All the rest of the scenes show the Hollywood side of Mulholland Drive.
The true story biopic The Soloist, the TV series NCIS and even the 1960s TV show Adam 12 have filmed in the area, but nothing more than a glimpse of the spectacular view is used.
David Hockney painted a painting called Mulholland Drive, Tom Petty mentions a "glide down over Mulholland" in his song Free Fallin' and at Disneyland's California Adventure, the rollercoaster ride Mulholland Madness was once called Mulholland Highway.
This is also the site of the off-ramp near the Skirball Cultural Center where comedian Bill Cosby's son, Ennis Cosby, was shot and killed in January 1997 after his car got a flat tire. Mikhail Markhasev, a Ukrainian immigrant, was convicted of shooting Cosby in the head and is serving a life sentence.
That freeway exit and the site which often held flowers in Ennis Cosby's memory, will be removed with the current construction.

There is no consensus as to what performance management is. Different IT research firms define it differently. Different consulting firms and software vendors describe it to fit their unique competencies rather than what their customers may require. Because my impression is that most of these organizations view performance management far too narrowly, such as only better budgeting and control, I think it is better to discuss what performance management does rather than have arcane debates about defining what it is.

Mercedes-Benz When you think of diesel-powered passenger cars, Mercedes is likely the first to come to mind. You could say that Mercedes first introduced the American public to diesel, and some old Mercedes diesels have even reached a sort of iconic status. In the early 1980s more than half of company sales were diesels, and Mercedes would likely still be the reigning king had not U.S. emission standards constricted as tightly as they did. But today, with fuel prices as they are, it only makes sense that the company would have strategically placed its Bluetec V6 diesel engines in some of its heavier platforms, vehicles that could benefit from an increase in miles per gallon. But being an equal opportunity-diesel maker, all Mercedes that could benefit from a diesel engine could be getting one without a sacrifice in performance. Its modern performance and fuel economy stats clearly show that the new Bluetec is not your daddy's diesel engine.

Volkswagen Volkswagen has spent the latter part of a year prepping the American consumer for the coming diesel invasion. This campaign has included various industry and consumer shows and drive programs designed to dispel common myths and prove that diesels no longer make strange noises or spew clouds of smelly exhaust. In addition to this educational blitz, the company created a Jetta TDI Cup racing series to highlight the viability of modern diesel-powered race cars. The first batch of TDIs sold out before they hit the showroom floor, so it looks like the public got the message. To round out the product line, Volkswagen will be releasing the Touareg with a V6 TDI in early 2009, and by the end of 2009 a Rabbit TDI.

How to Be Ready for Anything
Weekend Meditation
There was a time when having people over meant a lot of advanced planning on my part. I cleaned, I shopped, I cooked, I added special decorating touches to the bathroom. Everything needed to be planned, polished, and perfected. From the light over the dining room table down to my toenails, it needed to shine. (I blame Martha Stewart but that's another post.) These days, I can still launch a fancy fete now and again, but more often than not, my entertaining is much simpler. And sloppier. And a lot more fun.
I live in the kind of place where it's easy for friends to just drop by. My apartment is on the ground floor with only an unlocked wooden gate and a screen door between me and whomever just happens to be in the neighborhood. My street usually has plenty of parking and I'm not far from the post office, library and other places where errand-running friends are passing through. Since I work from home, I tend to be around and it's not unusual for me to hear a 'yoo-hoo' followed by a knock on the door and the rattle of a paper bag from a nearby bakery.
A couple of years ago, this would have petrified me. Is the house clean? Are the dishes done? Do I have milk for tea or the makings of lunch? Did I brush my teeth yet? But now I'm simply happy for the company and welcome my friends in with a big hello and a hug. If my apartment is messy or the refrigerator is bare, we'll still make do. Besides, my friends know better than to expect a full spread if they've just dropped in. It's the company that matters; everything else is just window-dressing.
Likewise, I'm much more apt to invite someone over on the spur of the moment. The most important question for me is 'do I want this conversation to continue?' and not 'when did I last vacuum?' Again, the relationship and the mood of the moment is what's most important here. Of course, there are a few things I do to make this a little easier on myself. I make my bed every morning without fail and usually I give my bathroom a quick 2-minute clean up in the morning. In general, I never let my housecleaning go so far that I would be embarrassed to have people over.
I try to keep my pantry and refrigerator shelves stocked with things like olives, crackers and other various nibbles and there's usually a bottle of wine or lemonade or something to drink in the refrigerator. And even if there isn't, I can always offer a cup of tea. I remember once I invited a friend up for a snack and we sat at the kitchen table, dabbing almond butter and homemade plum preserves onto Ritz crackers. Fun and delicious!
In a pinch, I've served few squares of nice chocolate on a napkin, or a glass of water with a slice of cucumber and a sprig of mint. Yesterday there was only one peach in the fruit bowl, so I cut it in half, dolloped on some yogurt and drizzled with honey. I could have just as easily served it plain and simple, ala Alice Waters.
The most important lesson for me has been to let go of this idea that everything has to be neat and perfect and in my control. The key to being ready for anything rests in a willingness to be available for anything, no matter what the circumstances. It's knowing what's most important (intimacy, friendship, connection) and allowing that to guide my actions, whether I'm opening the door to an unexpected knock or inviting the gang over for a spontaneous cocktail. The rule is simple: never, never, never let a few dust bunnies get in the way of a really good conversation.

Nice one, again Dana.
It is so true, that for GOOD friends, most of them won't care if your place is spotless, just that there is company, and that you are home for a bit of a chit-chat is all that matters.
Just as long as the house appears cleanish (bathroom sink and toilet scrubbed, floor swept, stove and counters wiped down, the kitchen floor swept and all dirty clothes picked up at minimum) it will be fine for anyone, even if stuff is stacked up willy, nilly in other areas, the most important areas for the appearance of sanitation are the bathroom and kitchen IMO, and they should be at least reasonably clean, even if dirty dishes are neatly stacked to be washed.
I often remind my friends (and also myself) that when I visit I am coming to see them, not their house. Unless it's unusual, I don't even notice the state of the house.
Thanks for the reminder.
True. Spontaneous gatherings are often much nicer - especially because I don't get so stressed out beforehand.
This was so refreshing! :) Thank you! I hope you have an amazing Sunday! I'm ready for the week now!
I feel the same way. My house is far from perfect, but it's cozy and unless I'm just not in the mood for people, I always feel comfortable having people stop by or come for dinner. I'd hate to have my life dictated by feeling judged or worried someone might judge. If a friend isn't OK with the occasional cat hair ball dancing across the floor, perhaps they just aren't meant to be a friend. Your location sounds lovely!
I so agree! Thank you for expressing it so well and for banishing the idea that friends are coming to visit the perfect house. I make it a rule to NEVER apologize for my house or my food as if they aren't good enough or clean enough or fancy enough.

We aren't reading too much into it. It's Marty.
I'd be fine if he said "I want to play. I want to play in the playoffs, but ultimately it's up to me. My job is to play as well as I can and make them play me. I'm here to help the team win and if that's playing every night, great. If it's to help Cory and the team in other ways, that's great too. It's not about me. I want the team to win."
Except he doesn't say that. He says he wants to play and talked to Lou about it, like a baby who wants a handout.

Come to think of it, when 30 gets traded is Moose getting a look as a backup - that way we don't have to get a goalie back neccesarily.

It's not the refs.
We have two rookie defensemen back there who are being asked to do a lot. Maybe they shouldn't have been paired together against Malkin, who knows.
Cory had a weak start, but why doesn't Pete say "well he hadn't started in a week." excuse the old man uses.
WE need to go back to Cory tomorrow and ride him. He's the better goaltender. He didn't get much work tonight, let's let him bounce back.

Great post Df26. You're on the money. The tradition was the song, not the chant. No one was happier when a few years back RR2 was brought back, but the traidition was ruined with the chant.

I don't know. At some point if Lou really wanted Mark Fayne in the line up like we all do, he could make that happen. This is a huge frustration for me. If he wanted JJ in the lineup, he could waive Gionta. My biggest problem is why these things aren't happening. We need to give Merril or Gelinas a chance too. They played well enough to earn a shot, a SHOT, who knows what will happen. However, these guys are offensive and we badly need those kinds of D. Are we coaching to win or coaching not too lose.

The fans booing after the goal are, like many DEvils fans, immature and petty. Sorry, but that's the way it is.
RR Part 2 needed to go. However, the way the team handled it was extremely poor. They should've done it in the preseason and tested it out with several different songs. A fan vote could've been interesting too.
It still needs to change, This is Our House is not particularly good either. I'd rather hear Raise Your Hands from the Bon JOvi side, but whatever that's fine. They'll change it again, they have 2 weeks.

Yeah the same guy calling for common decency is name calling. Makes perfect sense. And I'm the 12 yr old...You're not really grasping the context here. If you think saying you suck to betteman is the same as doing to someone on the street then you're an idiot. I can't argue w someone who thinks like that. Oh so you're gona conveniently cite media speculation as your basis for having an opinion on club policies? Ah I see. So media speculation validate things for you, but actual facts like Betteman stating he wants to move us to Nashville, or his poor communication w the devils and its fans, and subsequent penalties doled out to us, don't work for you. You keep living in that fairy world of yours...
Right but the president, whoever it may be, isn't trying to purposefully screw people over or contract your city lol. It's not very comparable. Brian rolston on the other hand would not be booed by me because he's not trying to screw us over. That said, if someone wanted to say that to his face then that goes w the lucrative profession he's in.

All this talk about respect for Marty. I am not a big fan of Marty, no surprise, I never respected his off ice performance in the bars with girls, or what he did with his sister-in-law, a lot of kids looked up to him not suck a good example. As for his goaltending, I have always thought he was a product of the Devils game plan "defense first" without that style he wouldn't be as good. I also thought he had the best defensemen (thanks Devils) in front of him and that improved his performance and numbers. He was always playing every game because the defensemen and Devils style kept the workload down, remember the trap? Marty was always having problem with the glove side and it has only gotten worse because of age. When he became bigger than the team with his MB30 it was always about him, and he rarely took fault. BTW he hasn't played well since bringing on the MB30. The NHL shootout gave more wins to him only not fair if it's a team sport but he personal records IMO got in the way of the team. His poor performance in the last olympics and his poor play during the past first rounds since the lockout focus a lot of attention on him and his performance. His ego is big and IMO it hurts the team. He has been accused of managing his time in goal and management couldn't stop him, and he has been accused of being part of team decisions and dumping coaches. So for what it's worth he doesn't have my respect. Yes, I think he is a good goalie in the top 5 but never number 1 because it wasn't all him but he takes all the credit. I know what he says and I don't believe him it is the thing to say.IMO he created his own monster. IMO what you see today is an aging goalie that was a product of the Devils system and great defensemen in front of him. BTW there isn't a Devils forum that Devils fans aren't speaking negatively about Marty so it isn't unique to this forum as suggested by some.

As usual, the government has hold of the wrong end of the stick with all this talk of furloughs for those far down on the totem pole. These hardworking people don't have anything to do with the economic problems of the government.Instead, let's furlough the employees who can really accomplish something when we citizens hold their feet to the fire. I'm talking about representatives, senators, cabinet officers, department heads and all their top-level aides. Furlough the politicians and remind them they are elected and employed to serve for the best of our country.That does not mean playing political games, saying no and looking forward four years to the next presidential election. But of course, most of these people who are elected or appointed do not see themselves as employees of our republic. What do they see themselves as? Rulers? Actors? Corporate leaders?-- Catherine Clyde, Benbrook

How does tigase handle PEP messages to an offline user? Do we have something like an PEP history?
How does one implement something like this in tigase?
Please advice,
Stevenson Lee
Hi all.
I'm using Tigase Server to manage XMPP stranzas sent from a web client (JSJac and Strophe) through Bosh. I'm sending a presence stranza with this specific History manage attribute:
According to the XEP-0045 Multi-User Chat specification (http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0045.html#enter-managehistory), the XMPP server should not return any history messages at all if you specify the maxchars='0' attribute, but the problem is that I keep receiving all the history messages even if don't want to get them.
we use iJab as web client and latest Tigase version as Jabber server.
When we reload the page with the chatbar, it takes VERY VERY long before the ongoing chat windows (with the chat history) pops up again.
- Do you have an idea why it takes so long to recover the open chats and the chat history?
- Where is exactly stored the chat history for the active sessions? (in memory? Bosh Cache?, which classes?)

Transferts de fonds des migrants en Afrique du Sud. Les conditions de départ du pays d'origine sont-elles déterminantes ?
AbstractThis paper looks at the determinants of international remittances in the context of South-South migration. We use a 2006 survey on 639 African migrants living in Johannesburg. In addition to the traditional variables (income, age and education of the migrant, etc.) we consider the impact of departure conditions from the country of origin and subjective variables (perception of relative wealth, attachment to the country of origin) on remittances. The results show that having left the country of origin due to violence has a negative effect on the propensity to remit, whereas the attachment to the country of origin and the perception of a better economic situation in the host country positively influence remittances.

Garlicky Mustard Greens
Photo: Thomas J. Story
"Everyone thinks of collard greens as the traditional green in African American cooking. But mustard greens are also often found in my culture's cuisine," says Bryant Terry, Oakland cookbook writer and author of The Inspired Vegan. Blanching the mustard greens reduces their bitterness, and the toasted garlic chips add earthiness and crunch.

The Tozai News is celebrating its 100th anniversary. Part of the celebration is creating the "Ultimate Meal", one that represents the pinnacle of Japanese cuisine. The job has been assigned to Yamaoka Shiro, cynical and a bit lazy but a man with a wide knowledge of food and cooking techniques. He acquired this training from his father, Kaibara Yuzan — a man with a reputation as a premier gourmet and a nasty temper. Things go from bad to worse between the two when Yuzan agrees to assemble the "Superior Meal" for the Tozai News newspaper rival the Teito Times.Shiro teams up with colleague Kurita Yuko and other co-workers on a quest to find the best of the best of Japanese cuisine. An interesting introduction to Japanese food, culture and some history.The English version is a variety of a la carte volumes, collections of earlier stories sorted by subject matter. This disrupts the story line, but the editors try to keep the reader informed of what has occurred during the transitions.

Pharmacological action Foradil Aerolizer
Selective β2-adrenoceptor agonist. It has a bronchodilator effect in patients with both reversible and irreversible and airway obstruction. Effect of the drug occurs rapidly (within 1-3 min) and stored for 12 hours after inhalation. When using the drug at therapeutic doses, effects on the cardiovascular system is minimal and occurs only in rare cases.
Foradil inhibits the release of histamine and leukotrienes from mast cells. In animal experiments were shown some anti-inflammatory properties of formoterol, such as the ability to inhibit the development of edema and accumulation of inflammatory cells.
In experimental animal studies in vitro have shown that racemic formoterol and its (R, R) – and (S, S)-enantiomers are highly selective agonists of β2-receptors. (S, S)-enantiomer was 800-1000 times less potent than (R, R)-enantiomer, and had no negative impact on the activity of (R, R)-enantiomer with respect to effects on tracheal smooth muscle. There was no evidence obtained by pharmacological advantages of using one of the two enantiomers in comparison with the racemic mixture.
In studies in humans have shown that Foradil effectively prevents bronchospasm caused by inhaled allergens, exercise, cold air, histamine or methacholine. Since the bronchodilatory effect Foradila is expressed in the 12 hours after inhalation, maintenance therapy, where prescribed Foradil 2 times / day, which in most cases provide the necessary control of bronchospasm in chronic lung diseases, both during the day and night.
In patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a stable flow of formoterol used by inhalation through the device Aerolizer at doses of 12 mg or 24 mg 2 times / day, causes a rapid onset of bronchodilatory effect, which lasts for a minimum of 12 hours and is accompanied by subjective improvement in terms of the parameters of quality of life.
Pharmacokinetics Foradil Aerolizer
The therapeutic dose range is between formoterol 12 mcg to 24 mg 2 times / day. The data on the pharmacokinetics of formoterol were obtained from healthy volunteers after inhalation of formoterol at doses above the recommended range and in COPD patients after inhalation of formoterol at therapeutic doses.
After a single inhalation of formoterol fumarate at a dose of 120 mcg formoterol in healthy volunteers rapidly absorbed into plasma, Cmax of formoterol in plasma was 266 pmol / L and was achieved within 5 min after inhalation. COPD patients treated with formoterol in a dose of 12 or 24 mg 2 times / day for 12 weeks, the concentrations of formoterol in plasma measured after 10 min, 2 h and 6 h after inhalation, were in the range 11.5-25.7 pmol / L and 23.3 -50.3 pmol, respectively.
In studies that examined the total excretion of formoterol and its (R, R) – and (S, S)-enantiomer in the urine, it was shown that the amount of formoterol in the systemic circulation is increased proportional to the inhaled dose (12-96 mg).
After inhalation of formoterol in a dose of 12 or 24 mg 2 times / day for 12 weeks, excretion of unchanged formoterol in urine of patients with asthma increased by 63-73%, and in patients with COPD – by 19-38%. This indicates some cumulation of formoterol in plasma after repeated inhalation. It is not mentioned much cumulation of one of the enantiomers of formoterol compared with the other after repeated inhalation.
Also, as reported for other drugs used in inhalation, most of formoterol, used with an inhaler will be swallowed and then absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. In the appointment of 80 ug of 3H-labeled formoterol into two healthy volunteers was absorbed at least 65% of formoterol.
The binding of formoterol to plasma proteins is 61-64% (in the first place, by binding to albumin – 34%).
In the range of concentrations observed after the drug at therapeutic doses, saturation of binding sites is not achieved.
The main route of metabolism of formoterol is direct glucuronidation. Another metabolic pathway – the o-demethylation followed by glucuronidation.
Irrelevant pathways include conjugation of formoterol sulfate followed deformilirovaniem. The set of isoenzymes involved in the process of glucuronidation (UGT1A1, 1A3, 1A6, 1A7, 1A8, 1A9, 1A10, 2B7 and 2B15) and 0-demethylation (CYP2D6, 2C19, 2C9, 2A6) of formoterol that predpolagaget a low probability of drug interactions through inhibition of isoenzyme or taking part in the metabolism of formoterol. At therapeutic concentrations, formoterol did not inhibit isozymes of cytochrome P450.
In patients with asthma and COPD, formoterol fumarate treated at a dose of 12 or 24 mg 2 times daily for 12 weeks, approximately 10% or 7%, respectively, determined in the urine as unchanged formoterol. The calculated proportion of (R, R) – and (S, S)-enantiomers of unchanged formoterol in urine accounted for 40% and 60% respectively after a single dose of formoterol (12-120 mg) in healthy volunteers after single and repeated doses of formoterol in patients with bronchial with asthma.
The active substance and its metabolites are completely eliminated from the body, about two thirds of the applicable oral dose is excreted in the urine, with the third – in the feces. Renal clearance of formoterol is 150 mL / min.
In healthy volunteers, the end of T1 / 2 of formoterol from plasma after a single inhaled dose of 120 mg of 10 h, end of T1 / 2 (R, R) – and (S, S)-enantiomers, calculated from urinary excretion accounted for 13.9 and 12.3 respectively.
Pharmacokinetics in special clinical situations
Pharmacokinetic parameters of formoterol in both men and women do not have significant differences.
The pharmacokinetics of formoterol in elderly patients has not been studied.
In a clinical study in children aged 5-12 years with bronchial asthma treated with formoterol fumarate at a dose of 12 or 24 mg 2 times / day for 12 weeks, excretion of unchanged formoterol excretion was increased by 18-84% compared with the corresponding indicator measured after the first dose.
In clinical studies in children in the urine was determined by about 6% of unchanged formoterol.
The pharmacokinetics of formoterol in patients with impaired liver function and / or kidney disease has not been studied.
Statement Foradil Aerolizer
- Prevention and treatment of bronchospasm in patients with bronchial asthma;
- Prevention of bronchospasm induced by inhaled allergens, cold air or physical exercise;
- Prevention and treatment of disorders of bronchial patency in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in the presence of both reversible and irreversible because of bronchial obstruction, chronic bronchitis and emphysema.
Dosage and administration Foradil Aerolizer
Foradil is for inhalation use in adults and children age 5 and older. The drug is a powder for inhalation, used with a special device – Aerolizer, which is included in the package.
For adults with asthma, the dose for regular maintenance therapy is 12-24 mg (contents of 1-2 capsules) 2 times / day. If necessary, you can apply an additional 12-24 mg / day. If you need to use extra doses of the drug ceases to be episodic (for example, becomes more than 2 days per week), you should consult a physician for review of treatment, as this may indicate a worsening of underlying disease.
In order to prevent bronchospasm caused by exercise or unavoidable exposure known allergen for 15 minutes before the alleged contact with the allergen load or to be inhaled the contents of one capsule (12 micrograms). Patients with asthma may need a heavy flow of a single dose of 24 micrograms.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease dose for regular maintenance therapy is 12-24 mg (contents of 1-2 capsules) 2 times / day.
For children aged 5 years and older with asthma, the dose for regular maintenance therapy is 12 mg 2 times / day.
In order to prevent bronchospasm caused by exercise or unavoidable exposure known allergen for 15 minutes before the alleged contact with the allergen load or to be inhaled the contents of one capsule (12 micrograms).
Rules of the inhalation
In order to ensure the correct use of the drug, the patient should be instructed by a doctor or other health professional about the rules of the inhalation. We need to show the patient how to use an inhaler, to explain to the patient that use capsules with powder for inhalation should be only through Aerolizer, warn the patient that the capsules are intended for inhalation use only and not intended for ingestion.
It is important that patients understand that due to the destruction of small pieces of gelatin capsule of gelatin as a result of inhalation may fall into the mouth or throat. In order to reduce this phenomenon to a minimum, you should not pierce the capsule more than 1 times.
Remove the capsule from the blister package until immediately before use.
Instructions for use Aerolizer
1. Remove the cap from Aerolizer.
2. Aerolizer grip the base and turn mouthpiece in the direction of the arrow.
3. Place the capsule in the cell that appears at the bottom Aerolizer (it takes the form of capsules). Keep in mind that removing the capsule from the blister pack immediately prior to inhalation.
4. Turning the mouthpiece close Aerolizer.
5. Holding Aerolizer in strictly vertical position once pressure until the end of the blue buttons available on either side Aerolizer. Then let them go.
At this stage, piercing the capsule, it may be destroyed, so that small pieces of gelatin might reach the mouth or throat. Since gelatin is edible, it does not cause any harm. In order to complete capsule is destroyed, you must meet the following requirements: Do not puncture the capsule more than once to observe the rules of storage, remove the capsule from the blister until just prior to inhalation.
6. Make a full breath.
7. Take the mouthpiece in your mouth and gently tilt the head back. Wrap your lips and the mouthpiece to make a quick, even, as a deep breath. If the patient needs to hear the characteristic rattling sound produced by the rotation of the capsule and spray powder. If the characteristic sound was not, then you need to open Aerolizer and see what happened to the capsule. Maybe it got stuck in the cell. In this case, you must carefully remove the capsule. In no case do not try to release the capsule by repeated taps on the buttons on the sides Aerolizer.
8. If inhalation hear a distinctive sound, you should hold your breath as long as possible. At the same time remove the mouthpiece from the mouth. Then make an exhalation. Open Aerolizer and see if there was a capsule of powder. If the capsule remained in the powder, re-do the steps described in paragraphs 6-8.
9. After the procedure to open Aerolizer inhalation, remove the empty capsule, close mouthpiece and close Aerolizer cap.
For the removal of the powder should be wiped with a mouthpiece and a cell with a dry cloth. You can also use a soft brush.
Side effect Foradil Aerolizer
Adverse reactions are distributed in accordance with the frequency of occurrence. To estimate the frequency of the following criteria: very common (≥ 10%), common (≥ 1% <10%), sometimes (≥ 0.1%, <1%), rarely (≥ 0.01%, <0.1%); very rare (<0.01%), including isolated reports.
By the immune system: very rarely – hypersensitivity reactions such as hypotension, urticaria, angioedema, pruritus, rash.
The nervous system and psyche often – headache, tremor, and sometimes – agitation, anxiety, nervousness, insomnia, dizziness, irritability, and very rarely – a violation of taste.
Cardio-vascular system: often – palpitations, and sometimes – tachycardia is very rare – peripheral edema.
The respiratory system: sometimes – bronchospasm.
Local reactions: sometimes – irritation of the mucous membrane of the pharynx and larynx.
Part of the digestive system: very rarely – nausea.
On the part of the musculoskeletal system: sometimes – muscle cramps, myalgia.
Contraindications Foradil Aerolizer
- Children up to age 5 years;
- Lactation (breastfeeding);
- Hypersensitivity to the drug.
Pregnancy and breast feeding
Safety of Foradil during pregnancy and lactation has not yet been established.
Use of the drug during pregnancy is possible only if the expected benefit to the mother outweighs the potential risk to the fetus. Formoterol, as well as other beta2-agonists may slow down the process of birth due to tocolytic action (relaxing effect on smooth muscle of the uterus).
Is not known whether formoterol in human breast milk. Mothers taking Foradil should not breast-feed.
Take special care when applying Foradil (especially in terms of dose reduction) and careful monitoring of patients is required under the following comorbid conditions: coronary heart disease, irregular heart rhythm and conduction, particularly AV-block III degrees, severe heart failure, idiopathic podklapanny aortic stenosis; hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, thyrotoxicosis, known or suspected prolongation QTc (QT ARR)> 0.44 sec.
Due to the hyperglycemic effect, characteristic of beta 2-agonists in patients with diabetes should take extra regular monitoring of blood glucose.
Typically, patients with asthma who require therapy beta2-agonists should also regularly receive adequate doses of protivoovspalitelnyh means (eg, corticosteroids for inhalation or ingestion, and / or children – sodium cromoglycate). In the appointment of the drug to patients not receiving anti-inflammatory therapy, it should be started simultaneously with Foradil. In appointing Foradil need to assess the condition of patients with respect to the adequacy of the anti-inflammatory therapy they receive. After starting treatment, patients should Foradilom continue to recommend anti-inflammatory therapy unchanged, even if it is marked improvement.
Necessary to revise the basic medical treatment of bronchial asthma in the case against the use of stored Foradil asthma symptoms, or if the number of doses Foradil required to control symptoms of the disease increases, as it usually indicates a worsening of the disease.
Consequence of therapy beta2-agonists may be the development of a potentially serious hypokalemia. Since the the action of the drug may be enhanced by hypoxia and concomitant treatment, special caution should be exercised in patients with bronchial asthma, severe course. In these cases, we recommend regular monitoring of serum potassium levels.
As well as during other inhalation therapy, you should consider the possibility of paradoxical bronchospasm. If it occurs, immediately remove the drug and to appoint an alternative treatment.
Effects on ability to drive and control mechanisms
Patients who during treatment occurs Foradila dizziness or other disorders of the central nervous system, they should refrain from driving a vehicle or control mechanisms during treatment.
Overdose Foradil Aerolizer
Symptoms: Foradila overdose can be expected to lead to the phenomena characteristic of the excess of the other beta2-agonists, such as nausea, vomiting, headache, tremor, drowsiness, palpitations, tachycardia, ventricular arrhythmias, metabolic acidosis, hypokalemia, hyperglycemia.
Treatment: shown holding a supportive and symptomatic therapy. In severe cases require hospitalization.
Can be considered beta-blockers, but only subject to extreme caution, because use of such equipment may cause bronchospasm.
Drug Interactions Foradil Aerolizer
Foradil (like other beta2-adrenostimulyatory) should be used with caution in patients receiving such drugs as quinidine, disopyramide, procainamide, phenothiazines, antihistamines, MAO inhibitors, tricyclic antidepressants and other drugs, which are known to prolong interval QT, because in these cases, the effect of agonists on the cardiovascular system may be enhanced. When using drugs that can lengthen the interval QT, and increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias.
The simultaneous use of other sympathomimetic agents can lead to aggravation of side effects Foradil.
The simultaneous use of xanthine derivatives, corticosteroids or diuretics may increase the potential effect of beta2-gipokaliemicheskoe agonists. Hypokalemia may increase susceptibility to the development of cardiac arrhythmias in patients receiving digitalis preparations.
Beta-blockers may reduce the effect Foradil. In this regard, you should not use Foradil with beta-blockers (including eye drops), if only to use a combination of drugs does not compel any extraordinary reasons.

Over the past 40 years civil war has risen and peaked in 1990 because of the end of the Soviet Union. Civil wars last on average about 7 years. Civil wars that have occurred since 1990, Yugoslav War 1991-1995, Georgian Civil War 1991-1993, First Chechen War 1994-1997, Second Chechen War 1999-2009, Kosovo War 1998-1999, Albanian Rebellion 2001. On going civil wars – Colombian armed conflicts since 1964, Afghan civil war since 1978, Ugandan Civil war since 1987, Somali Civil War since 1991. Changes in prevalence of civil wars over time and their causes? From 1950-2000 the number of countries in civil war rose. This can be said to be because of the Cold War, the break up of the Soviet Union, and the decolonization that went on in Africa. During the Cold War many small states were getting funding from both U.S. and the USSR, because they both wanted to push their version of politics, Communism and Democracy. The decolonization that went on in Africa started many civil war conflicts because France and Britain had control of the area and now it is totally out of control. Accomplishments of American foreign policy according to Dallek? The Marshall Plan, Truman Doctrine, and Richard Nixon opening of China, are all accomplishments Dallek speaks about. Marshall Plan = U.S. granting funds to Europe to help rebuild Europe after World War II. U.S. did this because they didn't want the Soviet Union to spread communism. Truman Doctrine = U.S. supported Greece and Turkey because they didn't want them to fall under Soviet communism. Some believe it started the Cold War because the U.S. was spreading Democracy all over the world and the Soviets were getting feed up with it. Nixon opening of China = ending 25 years of no talking or interacting with one another. Trade was a huge deal here. Similarities between Afghanistan and Vietnam? The similarities of Afghanistan and Vietnam is if the U.S. were to go to war with Afghanistan than it would be another pointless war that U.S. got itself into. Wasting money and more importantly, sending American soldiers to die in a far-off, impoverished land of little strategic value. Containment and examples from US foreign policy? Three enduring illusions of American foreign policy and there influence? 1) 1918 – Woodrow Wilson's peace program. He believed that the end of WWII and the start of the U.N would end conflicts all over the world, but the Cold War would end that belief. Truly believe that the end of WWII would "War to end all Wars." 2) Costly Wars – blood, money, death. Vietnam War was this illusion that has time and again led to the U.S. into unwise and costly military adventures. Going to war in foreign land, that has little value to anyone, is something the U.S. has done repetitively. 3) Presidents often hold onto this idea of militarized containment. Meaning going to war with the belief that containing or preventing enemy aggression depends on a military threat to their survival. Is the right way to avoid the traps set by the first two. Seeking a peaceful world in the U.S. by going to war in foreign lands.
