10 Claims. (Cl. 12S-60) The invention herein disclosed relates to apparatus for compressive treatment of the upper and lower limbs.
It has been found that with certain vascular diseases or deciencies, beneficial results can be obtained by progressively compressing successive portions of a limb thus to, in eect, milk the tiuid present in the blood stream back toward the heart, into the main circulatory system, or conversely, away from the heart to the periphery.
It is a purpose of the present invention to provide simple, practical apparatus for accomplishing such effects.
Special objects of the invention are to provide apparatus which will progressively vapply pressure to successive portions of the anatomy, hold that pressure on all those portions for a time and then suddenly release pressure from all those portions. This cycle of applying and holding pressure on successive portions of the body and then suddenly releasing the pressure on those portions is effective for treatment of many vascular complications. The progressive squeezing, holding and releasing has the eiect of flushing fluids tending to accumulate, back out of the blood stream and stimulating or restoring the system to full, normal activity.
In practicing this treatment of progressive pressure, holding and sudden release, it is important for safety reasons that pressure be instantly and preferably automatically released in case of any failure in the electrical or pressure applying portions of the apparatus.
Accordingly, it is a further object of the invention to provide practical and reliable means for releasing pressure in the pressure applying portions of the apparatus in the event of any failure in essential features of the apparatus, such as in the electrical and pressure carrying portions of the system.
Other special and important objects of the invention are to provide the pressure applying portions of the apparatus in a comfortably fitting form which will not by any possibility inict injury on the patient, and of a construction which can be readily applied and removed and such that can be kept properly clean and sanitary in use.
Other desirable objects accomplished by the invention and the novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts by which such objects are attained, are set forth and will further appear in the course of the following specication.
The drawings accompanying and forming part of the specification illustrate present practical embodiments of the invention, but structure may be further modified and changed, all within the true intent and scope of the invention as hereinafter dened and claimed.
Fig. 1 in the drawings is a broken, sectional and partly diagrammatic view illustrating the combined components of the invention, comprising in this example the compressed air source forming the pressure supply, the multiple section progressive pressure applying sleeve and the motor driven distributor valve for directing pressure to successive portions of the sleeve, holding pressure in those sections and then releasing the pressure from all sections;
Figs. 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 are sectional views on'correspondingly numbered section lines of Fig. l, showing the valve ports and passages for eiecting successive connection to and pressure release from the sleeve sections;

Fig. 8 is a side elevation of the valve element looking at the ported pressure supply side of the same;
Fig. 9 is a longitudinal sectional View as on line 9-9 of Fig. 8, showing pressure inlet and exhaust passages;
Fig. l0 is a plan view of a cabinet form of the apparatus, showing particularly the panel with timer and pressure controls and with an electrical supply connection and the iiexible tube connections to the pressure applying sleeve broken away;
Fig. l1 is a part sectional diagrammatic view of the parts contained within the cabinet, including in this instan-ce as a possible modification, the pressure supply as an air pump driven by electric motor and the safety pressure release as a piston actuated valve connected in the air system;
Fig. 12 is a longitudinal sectional view of an arm or leg pressure applying sleeve with connections to the four in this case, progressive pressure applying cells and the inner, overlying or connecting view being taken on substantially the plane of line 12-12 of Fig. 15.
Fig. 13 is a similar view showing all ve of the cells inflated as in the pressure holding phase of the treatment;
Fig. 14 is an outside elevation of the sleeve with supply connections indicated in section;
Fig. l5 is a cross-sectional View of the treating sleeve as on substantially the plane of line 15-15 of Fig. 12.
In the basic embodiment illustrated in Fig. 1, a source of pressure is shown in the form of a compressed air tank 2li connected at 21 regulatable at 23 to carry air at reduced pressure indicated at 24 through connection 25 to a rotary distributor valve 26. y
This valve is shown as having a valve element 27 rotated at reduced speed from a motor 28 and having a center passage 29 in one end open to the pressure supply conduit 25 and an exhaust passage 30 open out through the opposite end.
From the center supply passage 33, 34, 35 and there join to circumferentially extended channels 36,
29 radial ports 31, 32,
37, 38, 39, 4t2', the latter being of successively lesser circumferential extent so as to register successively in that order with outlet ports 41, 42, 43, 44, 45 in the body of the valve, in rotation in the direction of the arrow.
At the opposite side the rotatable valve element has a longitudinally extended recess 46, Fig. 7, which in the final stage of rotation will register with all theY last mentioned ports to effect release of pressure through the communicating inclined port 47 to the exhaust passage 30 extending out through the end of the member.
From the successively supplied valve ports 41 to 45, llexible tube connections 4S, 49, 50, 51, 52 extend to inatable sleeve, cell or cutf sections 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, the iirst four being successively arranged, cuit-like elements in end-toend engagement and 57 being an elongated inflatable sleeve extending within and through all the other surrounding cu sections, thus to bridge abutting ends of the cuffs and form a continuous, unbroken, inner pressure applying section.
These several inflatable elements maybe of plastic, rubber or other such ilexible material and may be elastic or inelastic as may seem desirable.
To enable the pressure applying unit to be readily applied to or be removed from the limb, it may be encased in a slip-on cover and lining such as indicated in Figs. 12 to 15, and shown as made up of an outer cover 5S and an inside lining 59 which may be suitably connected together at opposite ends as by lacing 60 at one end and stitching 61 at the opposite end, or laced at both ends.
sleeve broken away, this with a pressure reducing valve 22v extend to the periphery of the valve element- Usually it may be preferred to have both ends of lin-V be entirely separated for cleaning Vor other purposes.
These lining andcover elements may be made of the same or diierent materials, such as impregnated fabrics, flexible plastic materials or the like.
passage of theV pressure supply and release tubesY 4S to 52, leading to the inflatable sections. Y
Instead of a compressed air tank 20, Fig. l, supplied from same main sourceof pressure, the apparatus may include anV air pumpY such'as indicated at 63, lig. ll, driven by motor 64, thus to render the apparatus completely portable and independent of VlocalY air pressure supply. Y Y
Fig. 10 indicates how the components may all be combined withinav cabinet enclosure 65 which may carry a panel supporting pressure gage 24, pressure control Vbuttonr23 and an automatic cycling timer 67 whic'nrmay Vbe adjustable for varying the speed of operation or sequence of cycles or the like,
To insure immediaterelease of pressure `on shutdown rof the machine or possibly Von failure of the power or air supply, safetyrrelease valve means may be provided such as illustrated in Fig. l, in the form of a slide valve 68 'which will be held by a solenoid 69 in the operative position Withfporrts 79 in line with the pressure deliveryY ports 31-7-35 and ll-14S under normalY operating conditionsV and will be shiftedV by spring 7l when the solenoid is deenergized to release pressure from the connections 4 8-52rthroughports and passages 72, 73.
Instead of holding this safety release valve in normal operating condition by a solenoid, the valve may be held by air pressure in the manner indicated in Fig. ll, where the `stein 74 of this valve is shown as carrying a piston 75 operating in a cylinder 'rsubjected by connection 'i7 to air pressure developed by pump 6 3. It this pump, through failure of motor 64 or for other cause, fails to deliver proper pressure to piston 75 the spring 78 will shift the valve to openV release of pressure from connections 48---52Y leading to the five or other number of presn sure cells in thepressure applying boot or sleeve.
The continuously extending, long, inner inilatablemember which bridges the abutting or adjoining ends of the shorter sequentially pressurized cells acts to equalize applied pressure between the cells and serves to prevent h ,the creation vof welts Vor bamboo eect on the arm or Yleg of the patient.
'While of particular value for treatment of vascular ailments, it will be appreciated that the invention is adapted for other purposes where manipulation and massag-V ingrof the extremities is considereddesirable for kneadl ing and forcing uid matter secretedy in the blood back into the circulatory system, toward the heart or away from theheart tothe periphery.

Veterans First Mortgage®, is dedicated to serving the military community with government-backed loans. For over 30 years, the people at Veterans First have built a track record of quality VA and FHA lending.

Start your loan at www.VeteransFirst.com or 888-359-3661. Veterans First Mortgage®, NMLS #3122
If your spouse is deploying, you may consider moving away from your base, usually to a location where your family lives. There are a lot...
Discussion about common disbeliefs further demonstrates that zero-down, VA-backed mortgages are hard to beat.
Dismiss VA home loan myths about the federally-backed, zero down loan program.
Myth #1 – VA purchase loans are not for short-sale or foreclosed real estate
Myth #2 – Surviving spouses don't qualify for VA mortgages
Myth #3 – Military members deployed overseas can't get a VA-guaranteed loan.
Myth #4 – All realtors are good VA home loan advisors
Myth #5 – VA loans take forever to close
Fact #1: VA home loans can be used to purchase foreclosed and short-sale with as little as no money down. VA-eligible borrowers may have an advantage over those who need up to 20% cash down to qualify for conventional loans. A VA appraiser is trained to certify value and safety and can spot red flags of distressed properties.
Fact #2: Veterans, active duty and certain surviving spouses are eligible for VA home loan benefits. Qualified surviving spouses may borrow up to $417,000 (more in high-cost counties) with no money down. And, surviving spouses are exempt from paying the VA funding fee.
Fact #3: Military members deployed overseas can sign a document called power of attorney or (POA) designating a spouse or someone else to act as on their behalf for a VA loan transaction. The POA grants permission for the attorney in fact to sign on behalf of the VA-eligible borrower. The service member must give intent to obtain a VA loan through an email, letter or other correspondence. Only a spouse can satisfy the occupancy rule (move in within 60 days of closing) in a deployed serviceperson's stead. Otherwise, the borrower serving away from home will be granted an extension of up to 12 months to occupy the home.
Fact #4: A VA certification for real estate agents does not exist. Therefore, a real estate agent should not be used as a reliable source for VA loan information. Real estate agents who are not well-informed about VA loans can even unintentionally dissuade VA-eligible borrowers from choosing the program which may be best for them. A VA specialty lender, one whose majority product is VA-backed loans, can provide reliable VA loan facts.
Fact #5: If a lender is specialized in VA home loans, then closing can often happen within 30 days. The VA-approved lender is given flexibility to decide on its own whether a borrower is a satisfactory credit risk. Even a borrower with extenuating circumstances may close quickly.
To dismiss the myths of VA-backed mortgages and create your own VA Home Loan Story, contact a lending professional.

Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday (1993)
Good brainless fun
True, Jason doesn't show up much in this installment but when he does, he looks great. Very creepy. I love the damaged hockey mask and burned body. This guy has been given hell over the years, and it finally shows. The writers tried something new with part 9, and I'm glad that they did. How many times can we see Jason cut up horny teenagers at Camp Crystal Lake before it gets old fast? And yes, there are horny teenagers in this movie. For those of you that like a little spice in your horror flicks, this one delivers. Get the unrated DVD for the best parts. As for the story: Wow, there is one! Jason gets killed in a very cool ambush by federal agents at the beginning of the movie and the mortician performing his autopsy becomes Jason. (Thusly the working title: The Black Heart of Jason Voorhees.) The mortician then becomes Jason, even though he still looks like the mortician.

sencha app refresh - Exclude namespace from compiling (?)
I try to refresh my app, but heres the thing, I have PHP generated Javascript classes within the namespace "application". Now when running app refresh or build the command states that the files do not exist, and of course they are not existing. Is there a way to tell the compiler (?) to ignore everything within the application.* namespace?

Unfortunately, I've already looked and been unable to find anything else with the wide format and feature support I require. Even ignoring features, I use almost every format plugin available for Audacious AND I also use something (UADE) that should have been an Audacious plugin but the developers are jerks. (They promised to break the UADE API if the Audacious developers merged the plugin into Audacious and the Audacious developers, like the Linux kernel developers, weren't willing to hold up API improvements for external modules.) I know most things support AAC, AC3, FLAC, ModPlug, MP3, Ogg Vorbis, libsidplay, WavPack, AVI/FLV/MP4/WebM/mov/Real audio demuxing and playback via ffmpeg and I THINK there's a GStreamer plugin for libsndfile (.wav, .snd, .au, .voc). However, I have yet to find anything that also does AdPlug, MIDI through an external synthesizer, Game_Music_Emu (GBS, GYM, NSF/NSFE, and SPC at minimum), PSF, and PSF2. (And those are just the formats/libraries I'm using right now. I may decide to start also playing other types of console chiptune rips like HSF or VGM tomorrow.) ...not to mention, most of them accomplish the more esoteric stuff through plugins in the gst-plugins-bad/ugly bundles. If I could, I'd LOVE to be running something more versatile like XMMS2 or MPD which can separate the core from the GUI and support streaming more readily. > >> On the plus side, at least the native Qt file dialogs have "Rename" and >> "Delete" in the context menu, unlike the GTK+ ones.

Aside from a crash which I know is specific to my system, they seem to be better than the GTK+ ones in every way I care about. (I know the crash is on my end because, it causes them to crash in response to ANY click, right or left, in any Qt-based application) Yeah, sure, it is a little weird to not have / be the root of the virtual file system, but that's fine. My only complaints with the KDE 4 file dialogs is that they add unnecessary animations and extra widget clutter to the perfection that was the KDE 3 versions, interpret shaky-handed clicks on high-resolution mice as click-drags more readily than KDE 3 or GTK+, and don't let me lock the icons in the places sidebar at 16x16px.

Fortunately, Scott came with his roofers and roofing contractors, fully explained the roofing problem and took measures to prevent this from occurring in the future. Very professional roofing job!

I had a most Wonderful experience with Scott & his team.
They did a "Great Job" and cleaned up very well when they were done. Ceaser ( lead man on this crew) came to me with any issues that came up while working. He kept me updated throughout the project. It would have been nice to see Scott come by during the work, but then again, Ceaser did an exellent job, so Scott didn't need to be there anyway.
Excellent company & I will recommend them to everyone.
- Colorado Roof Toppers comment:
We appreciate you recommending us! It is always a pleasure to provide the best services to our clients.

Everything went so well, the crew showed up when they said they would. There was a issue with the placement of a down spout and Ceasar took the time to explain what was needed to make sure it drained properly. Would totally recommend this company!I give them an A !!
- Colorado Roof Toppers comment:
We always provide our customers with the best services. We appreciate recommending us Frank!
I was impressed that Scott took the time to explain his solution to my particular "old house" problem, which had to do with ventilation and heat build-up. He and the crew were happy to show me how they were solving this problem as it went along. They also had to dodge afternoon showers and make sure the roof was safe overnight. It's a nerve-wracking event to have a roof replaced, especially in a house with "special needs", but I felt very confident and even relaxed with this crew. Thank you!
- Colorado Roof Toppers comment:
Thanks Lynette! Our team has nearly 35 years of roofing experience and continues to provide high quality services to our customers.
As a senior widow I felt apprehensive about having my roof replaced. But, when I met Denise, received my detailed proposal itemizing each and every material to be used, I was immediately comfortable with my decision. Both Bart and Denise showed up on installation day to ascertain that all was going as scheduled. The crew worked diligently all day long.
- Colorado Roof Toppers comment:
Thanks Judy! Out courteous team provides each of our customers with premium services.

Members of the Lawrence + Memorial Hospital Nursing Leadership Team work hard every day to ensure the well being of both the patients and the employees at our hospital. Throughout our careers, both as staff nurses as well as in leadership, we have all made and continue to make our patients, their care and their recovery our top priority. We are nurses because it is our calling, and we are happy that L+M provides a safe, professional environment in which we can answer that calling and help people.
Unfortunately, we can no longer sit by silently while the care of our patients is questioned by the striking RN/LPN/Tech union leadership.
You may have heard union leaders level charges against the hospital and make attacks against the staff who continue to care for L+M's patients. What you have not heard about are the unprofessional behaviors by union protestors that are occurring every day towards patients, visitors, and those of us who are in the hospital caring for your friends and loved ones.
Drums beating outside that keep patients awake.
Loud shouting through bullhorns at all hours.
Union protestors taunting, intimidating and threatening our visitors and colleagues.
Swearing and other disruptive behavior aimed at employees and visitors coming into the hospital.
Staff members being warned by union leaders that they will experience an "unpleasant work environment" if they cross the picket line.
These reprehensible tactics may be intended to intimidate our staff; unfortunately, they also create a stressful situation for our patients and visitors.
If there is a silver lining in this experience, it is that we now have a new appreciation for what we have in this hospital. We have been working side by side with amazing nurses and techs who are caring for and protecting our patients during this time and we are eternally grateful for them. We are also learning about innovative treatments in use across the country that can help us improve the care L+M provides. We continue to have our focus on our patients and their cherished family and friends, whom we hold in the highest regard.
We are proud of our years of combined service to L+M and its patients. Nurses take an oath to practice our profession faithfully and devote ourselves to the welfare of those in our care. The wonderful professionals who remain at L+M Hospital are fulfilling their oaths each and every day on our units, and our patients tell us about the outstanding care they are receiving. We hope for a quick resolution and support our senior leadership team because we are 100 percent confident they have our patients and our staff members' best interest in mind.
When our regular staff return, we will continue the healing process and will be an even better hospital because of what we have been through.
Nicole Porter, RN, is Emergency Department nurse manager. Also contributing to this commentary were Patrica Egan, Cathy Grant, Cari Gutelius, Jeni Jarbeau, Theresa Lalonde, Nicole Porter and Melissa Swan, all nurse managers and RNs.

Are Americans Too Stupid For Democracy?
How can we rationally pursue our self-interests when we don't know what's going on?
In 2011, Newsweek asked 1,000 Americans to take the standard U.S. Citizenship test, and 38 percent of them failed. One in three couldn't name the vice-president. A 2009 study in the European Journal of Communications looked at how informed citizens of the U.S., UK, Denmark and Finland were of the international news of the day, and the results weren't pretty ( PDF).
"Overall," the scholars wrote, "the Scandinavians emerged as the best informed, averaging 62–67 percent correct responses, the British were relatively close behind with 59 percent,...

"Exciting Adolescent Adventure"
Self absorbed adolesent girl struggles with preteen emotions while using her super woman hunting skills to survive against the dark forces of an oppressive and cruel government.
"Good story, kept me wanting more"
This is a classic story told well. My only complaint is that Collins sets us up with the rules of the universe only to change them near the end. Also, there is a taint of "deus ex machina" when the mentor sends gifts at appropriate times. I find this causes the book to tilt more towards fantasy than scifi.
I rarely read "young adult" books unless I am previewing them for young adults. However, when a number of my friends and numerous people from a book group kept talking about how fabulous this book was, I decided to give it a shot. I LOVED it!
The narrator did an excellent job. I found myself driving an extra loop around the block or waiting in my drive in order to finish a scene before turning off the book. This genre, post-apocalyptic, is NOT a favorite of mine and if it had not come so highly recommended and been available on sale, I probably would have passed. I found myself completely engaged in the story and look forward to reading the next one in the series.
"Great book!"
Really loved the book, great idea! Narrator is doing good job, i really enjoyed listening.
"Hunger Games review"
This is the first book of the three series. I was always looking for an excuse to stop and listen to the book because you never knew what to expect next. I would hightly recommend this book.
"nice recording."
I can easily recognize different characters' voice, which makes me concentrate the story smoothly.
I think Carolyn McCormick is veteran for audio book.
"Fast Paced"
This is a fast paced book. Although it is written in the first person, which can be annoying for me at times, the story moved quickly. I did not want this story to end. The characters
were were very well defined. Carolyn McCormicks narration was excellent. I could see the action.
"Listening on my Droid Incredible - Great!!"
I am a member of book club and I dont really have the time to read the books but I can listen to them. I found audible.com so I can listen through my phone - anywhere. In the car, at the store, waiting for a friend, in my kitchen while I cook. I also have the book on my laptop. Looking forward to listening to books I've been wanting to read.
This book (and it's two following books) are really outstandly brilliant! And I think people should really read it now more than ever with the movie coming out soon. Please read the book first! I especially love the audiobook and REALLY recommend it!
