Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you a running
real-time commentary of The Happening.
0:00 - All right, time to start. I'm seeing
credits over clouds and boring music. Remember the theme from
Signs? That was the shit.
3:25 - Credits over. Let's get started.
5:07 - The movie starts off with a nice sense of
dread as people stop dead in their tracks and a woman on a bench
notices. However, the knitting needle to the neck looked really
bad. Whoever cast that latex was drunk on the job.
5:36 - I'm now to the scene from the trailer
where the construction dudes are falling off the building. Wow,
this scene has some ass-awful crappy acting from the people in it. The
scene is supposed to be grotesque, but it's one of the funniest things
I've seen all day... almost like it's a bad SNL skit.
6:40 - Mark Walberg: high school teacher! I can't
buy this guy as an intellectual.
7:58 - The guy in class doesn't care about bees.
Neither do I. Goddammit, do something, movie!
9:00 - Jesus wept, Marky Mark is a shitty
10:52 - Marky Mark has just been told there's
been a chemical attack and he sends his kids out of school and into
the middle of it without even telling them that there is an
emergency? What a dick!
11:02 - John Leguizamo! Yeah... he's a math
teacher, we get it. Thanks for that exposition. I'm also going
to speculate that he's going to die horribly as minorities are prone
to do in these movies.
13:10 - Mrs. Marky Mark is getting a call, so she
throws her cell onto the coffee table and stares at it. Can't you just
ignore the call? Why do chicks have to be so dramatic?
14:06 - Wow, the shitty bar has just been raised
thanks to the acting of Mrs. Marky Mark.
15:34 - Why does Leguizamo always speak out of
one side of his mouth? It looks like the poor man just had a stroke.
18:07 - Another scene from the trailer. A
cop takes his gun and shoots himself. Tell me, how do you shoot
yourself in the head and then catch yourself with your arms when you
19:05 - Ha, ha, ha! Shoot yourself, drop the gun,
someone else takes it, bang, drop the gun, someone else gets it...
It's like passing a "shot!"
19:58 - Marky Mark repeats the news, "Another
park?" like it's important or any real person would actually pick up
on it like it was a clue or something. That's giving me
a raging clue. My clue is pointing in this direction.
21:38 - Why does Marky Mark always have that
facial expression like he's sitting on the toilet?
22:11 - Omigod! Marky Mark is awful in this
24:09 - Marky Mark is having a conversation with
the cute little girl that's making him look like a pedophile.
25:10 - Lions disarm a man. Seriously, they bite
a man's arm off! That is the funniest goddamn thing I've seen in
the movie so far.
It's amazing that the man who brought us
The Sixth Sense and Unbreakable is showing this
level of incompetence when it comes to showing how people react
in a crisis.
26:36 - This is the calmest group of panicking
people I've ever seen. It's amazing that the man who brought us
The Sixth Sense and Unbreakable is showing this level of
incompetence when it comes to showing how people react in a crisis.
29:08 - This is the flattest heartfelt goodbye
scene I've ever seen. Probability and math should not figure
into heartfelt goodbye speeches.
30:00 - Thirty minutes into the movie. There's
been death and an evacuation, but I still feel like nothing has
happened! They should have called this The Not Happening!
31:21 - Congratulations, Marky Mark, you've
hitched a ride with the whackjob idiot that talks to plants, has a
stupid theory, and is probably right.
32:09 - Ha, ha, ha! The chick in the jeep starts
screaming at people hanging from the trees and it's only AFTER this
that Leguizamo tells her not to look out the window.
33:57 - Jeep crash. All right, I have to admit.
That was cool and by far the only scene in the movie that has been
adequately directed.
34:40 - RIP Leguizamo!
35:10 - Marky Mark is one of the least surprised
surprised people I've ever seen.
36:40 - Jesus Christ, it's Gomer Pyle!
37:40 - Marky Mark, all of the sudden, thinks
that crazy plant man is right and that plants are killing people.
Wait, what? Why? What evidence do you have, Mr. Scholar?
39:21 - This is the least concerned concerned
mother I have ever seen.
40:33 - Let me get this straight. This disease or
gas or plot device or whatever it is makes people loose their sense of
self-preservation and kill themselves? Is THAT what's going on? It's
like a retarded passive aggressive form of a 28 Days Later
40:45 - Snap. Marky Mark has an emotional crying
scene and M. Night shoots it from a distance. If something is so
shitty even M. Night doesn't want it in this shitty movie, it's has
got to be really shitty. I'm talking at least three scoops of
42:16 - Crazy plant man has too goddamn many
crazy convenient explanations. Is this man Jesus?
44:07 - Let's split up our group in the middle of
a crisis. What a brilliant plan.
44:32 - Nice move, Mrs. Marky Mark. Hey, honey...
I know we're all going to die but I need to tell you... I cheated on
you. What a cunt!
46:10 - Fuck beans. It IS the plants behind it.
46:22 - Plants.
46:59 - Motherfucking plants.
48:00 - (hysterical laughter) Holy crap!
They're actually outrunning the wind! One of them is a fat
chick and she's OUTRUNNING THE WIND!!!
48:55 - The wind won.
49:33 - Goddammit. Nothing happened. I was
really rooting for the trees at this point.
51:14 - I just realized. RIP Crazy Plant Man.
If he returns, then that will seal the deal... he is Jesus.
51:46 - Wait, was that a map from Dennys?
It's a house in the middle of nowhere
with fake furniture! I have a feeling that a nuclear bomb is
about to go off and the only way out is hiding in the fridge.
52:17 - Marky Mark is speaking to a plant in a
very pathetic attempt at humor. And it's plastic which... makes it
funnier, I guess.
53:15 - It's a house in the middle of nowhere
with fake furniture! I have a feeling that a nuclear bomb is about to
go off and the only way out is hiding in the fridge.
53:58 - Wow, okay... I'm a teacher myself and if
I had to spend the last few days of my life with another teacher who
elected to teach me things every chance he got, I would shoot myself.
54:50 - OM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM! That lawn mower
scene was too hilarious. Gratuitous, but hilarious as hell.
55:54 - All right, Marky Mark has been lecturing
these kids for hours about science, but the second they offer him
advice, he gets all up their ass. Fuck you, Marky! You take that
teenage advise, you fucking prick!
58:37 - Useful tip. If you're in a national
crisis and you happen upon an abandoned house that's boarded up and
there's someone inside, don't try to peer in the windows or make
demands. They're probably armed.
59:23 - Marky Mark is singing. Now it's just
59:50 - I TOLD YOU SO!!! RIP annoying
teenagers. You were asking for it, you idiots.
1:00:00 - At least we've reached the hour mark
with two annoying characters getting offed in front of a little girl.
That will ring up some therapy bills later.
1:01:21 - Too bad this movie isn't making more of
a statement about fear of terrorism. It's trying, but it's just being
1:03:01 - Enter the creepy old woman
1:05:15 - Filler, filler, filler, filler, filler.
1:06:00 - Sudden child abuse! Awesome!
1:07:13 - Is it just me or are Marky Mark and the
Funky Bunch meeting the craziest and strangest people on this trip?
Seriously, is there no one who is normal in a world overrun by killer
plant cum?
1:11:05 - OVERACTING!!! I thought that the crazy
old woman was going to shoot a turd out her ass.
1:11:57 - The wind is back! Quick, everyone!
Let's hide from the wind! Where's the duct tape for the windows and
1:12:32 - Wait a minute, did this movie just turn
into Night of the Living Dead?
1:12:58 - All right, crazy lady busting windows
with her head is officially the first creepy thing I've seen in this
1:13:36 - If anything, Marky Mark has that
wide-eyed open-mouthed somewhat surprised look down pact.
1:14:13 - Holy dog balls. These people have
been running from killer plant cum for the whole movie and when Marky
Mark tells Mrs. Marky Mark to stay inside and shut the doors, she
answers "why?" with a straight face. Why the fuck do you
1:15:42 - Wow, now Marky Mark is whining.
1:15:50 - The characters think that this is the
end? I could only be that lucky.
1:17:45 - We're a hour and seventeen minutes into
the movie and NOW they're hitting us with attempted character
development? Nice try, M. Night. Nice try. This, my
friends, is lipstick on a pig!
Wait a minute... are the trees causing
the wind to blow? I mean, what's the deal with that?
1:18:27 - Wait a minute... are the trees causing
the wind to blow? I mean, what's the deal with that?
1:19:58 - Goddammit! These characters are
indestructible! WHY WON'T THE TREES KILL THEM!?
1:20:10 - Marky Mark just mumbled something that
I'm sure was crucial to understand what just happened, but I couldn't
understand a word of it.
1:20:15 - Three months later.
1:22:22 - All right, everything's been explained
by the TV. Thank you, magic talking box.
1:22:51 - And we go off the rails with the
terrorism thing and jump on the environmental track. Yeehaw! This
movie has no point!
1:23:37 - Aw, she's pregnant! I can't wait for
her to tell Marky Mark and have him look with big wide eyes and an
open mouth.
1:24:37 - Dammit, the movie faded out and I
thought it was over. Now it's back.
1:25:35 - And NOW the movie is over. Not a
moment too soon; I was about to start negotiations with my fichus to
take me out lest I suffer more.
You can pretty much see the score as it stands
now. I am in absolute awe. The Village and Lady in the
Water were bad movies, but they had that spark of creativity and that
eye for composition that let you know that there was a mind behind the
camera. With The Happening, there is no inkling of any vision, any genius,
or any talent. If I can say anything about this steaming pile
that's remotely positive, it's that at least M. Night didn't cover it
with the egotism he exhibited in Lady in the Water.
M. Night, you're way too in love with yourself
and the only way
out is to
accept humility and admit that you are not God's gift to cinema
anymore. Your early work was brilliant, but your latest works
are like you took the first draft and said, "Fuck it, it's fine like
this." Let me just appeal to you, M. Night... you officially

Let's Move! Outside
Preparing the Next Generation of Outdoor Stewards, One City at a Time
Leading First Lady Michelle Obama's Let's Move! Outside initiative, the U.S. Department of the Interior, YMCA of the USA, and the National League of Cities (NLC) have joined forces to create more opportunities for kids to play, learn, serve and work outdoors. The value and benefits of time spent outside are well documented, but unfortunately, there is a growing disconnect between young people and the great outdoors—and it's a gap that we all have the power to help bridge. In partnership with local communities, this initiative is creating meaningful connections to nature for millions of children, young adults, families and veterans, ultimately preparing and supporting the next generation of outdoor stewards.
Key Partnership: SOLVE
For nearly half a century, SOLVE has been bringing people together to improve Oregon communities and natural areas through hands-on volunteer projects. Our projects are a fun, easy way to get outdoors, meet your neighbors and take care of our neighborhoods, parks, beaches and more. No matter where you live or visit in Oregon, you can be a part of a SOLVE volunteer project or start you own project year round.
All of our projects are hands-on, outdoor volunteer opportunities involving litter cleanup, invasive plant removal or native tree and shrub plantings. These activities help to keep our treasured neighborhoods, parks and natural areas clean and healthy. All Oregonians are invited to participate and bags, gloves and other supplies are provided free of charge at check in. Pre-registration is recommended but not required, and no experience is needed. Visit SOLVE for more information.
Upcoming Volunteer Opportunities
1. Spring Oregon Beach Cleanup, presented by AAA Oregon — April 1, 2017 — covers the entire Oregon Coast on a single day.
2. SOLVE IT for Earth Day, presented by Portland General Electric — April 22, 2017 — covers the entire state of Oregon with 150-200 individual projects to choose from.
3. Beach & Riverside Cleanup, presented by the Oregon Lottery — Sept. 23, 2017 — covers the entire Oregon Coast, plus 60 or more inland sites state-wide.
Year-round Opportunities
1. Calendar of Events - join a planned event near you! SOLVE facilitates projects nearly every Saturday of the year, occasionally weekday and Sunday projects are also listed, check back often and sort our list by city or county to find a project that fits your needs.
2. Project Oregon - host a public or private event with SOLVE anytime and anywhere in Oregon.
3. Year-round Opportunities - take ownership over your own stretch of river, lake or other waterway through this flexible program.

Well fortunately it won't get down to 10 below zero tonight. It WAS 10 below in 1989 on this date, when WKVI's first home in the 200 block of Main Street was gutted by fire. The station, which had been reconfigured into a home, was eventually rehabbed, and is currently a home again.
No one was injured in the blaze.
And on this date in 1773, American Colonists disguised as Indians dumped 342 chests of tea off a British ship in Boston Harbor in a protest of Royal taxes.
Little did those colonists know that in 2009 the Tea Party took its name from that event.

Loss of water pressure in freezing weather often means that water has frozen in one or more locations in your water pipes. You may be able to do something about it, depending on where the blockage is, and it may take some detective work to find it. It's important to know the location for another reason -- the frozen section of pipe may leak when the water thaws, and you have to fix the leak.
Identifying a Frozen Pipe
Water expands when it freezes, and the outward force it exerts is strong enough to distend a copper pipe and make it bulge noticeably. Frozen pipes also get frosty, so look for one or both of these symptoms. Galvanized steel pipes aren't as malleable as copper and won't bulge so much as turn frosty. You can also find an ice blockage by feeling the pipe or using an infrared thermometer -- the frozen part is noticeable colder than normal pipes, which are usually at a . The most obvious symptom of freezing is a crack in the pipe from which dripping water has formed an icicle.
Checking the Main Pipes
When one fixture, such as a sink faucet, stops working, it's likely that other fixtures have also stopped, and determining which are frozen and which aren't is the first step in finding the blockage. If none of your fixtures work, look for an exposed section of frozen pipe in the basement or crawlspace near the water meter. Failing to find one there, follow the pipe outside from the point it emerges from the house until it goes underground. If you don't see signs of freezing in any aboveground pipes, the blockage may be underground. This is unusual, and if it happens, the easiest way to find it may be to wait for the water to thaw and watch for signs of a leak.
Finding a Blockage in a Branch Pipe
If only some of the fixtures in your house are affected, you don't need to check the main pipes, but the branch that services those fixtures. This pipe may be in a poorly insulated part of the wall or running underneath the ground floor, and knowing which fixtures are affected helps pinpoint it. For example, if none of the fixtures in an upstairs bathroom work, but the rest of the house has water, the frozen section could be in a wall or just beyond a tee in the basement to which the upstairs bathroom is connected.
Thawing Frozen Pipes
Once you find the blockage, you can hasten thawing in metal pipes by the application of gentle heat, using a hairdryer, or wrapping the pipe in rags soaked in hot water or a heating pad. Don't try to hurry the process by using a torch or heat gun, because the ice can turn to steam and cause an explosion. As an added precaution against this eventuality, open one or more faucets to relieve pressure while you're thawing the pipe. Allow plastic pipes to thaw by themselves; heat can weaken the plastic and increase the likelihood of a crack. Prevent a recurrence by opening one of the affected faucets to allow a drip of water until the weather warms up.

In Reply to: RE: Disbeliever has... posted by PAR on March 04, 2017 at 08:00:17
Disbeliever has years of posts criticizing Marantz's reference series SACD players. I was just anticipating the next post.
Follow Ups:
My 28 year old modified Marantz CD94 is still working ,however I sold it some 3/4 years ago. A friend is still using again modified the equivalent Philips 960 . The only Marantz I criticized was the SA7-S1,sold after a 700 hour burn in. I have not auditioned the latest SA-10.
Edits: 03/04/17 03/04/17 03/04/17
Thank you all for the clarification. I remain somewhat interested in the SA10. I recently bought an SA14, Although there have been some negative comments about that unit on this forum, I am pretty happy with it. Although in general it is not as exciting as my vinyl setup, on some SACD's it sounds really excellent to my ears, and on CD's it is a considerable improvement over my previous Onkyo CD player. I can't help wondering if the SA10 would be a worthwhile further improvement. It would have to be a major one to justify the price.
I will have a listen to the SA-10 shortly but expect it will be difficult to get a home demo. As for modifications on Marantz CD94 & Philips 960 they were very extensive amounting to a complete rebuild of both digital & analogue sections, these players were suitable for upgrading,whilst quite good as standard, the mods transformed them into top notch RB players.
No chance of a home demo according to one of the main dealers in UK as Marantz are pretty much making them to order. It is not a Limited Edition per se but production is limited to those who actually want to buy one, "Deposit up-front please". This tells me absolutely that the SA-10S1 is very much a flagship Loss Leader. Understandable when you look at the quality of Design & Engineering not to mention the up-front years of R & D.
As a user of dCS equipment the contrasts could not be starker. My bet is a profitable SA1-10S1 would come in around the �20/25k mark if it was made by dCS. Luckily it isn't.
He hasn't been kind to my "obese" SA-7S1. :)
This is a public service announcement . . . WITH GUITARS!!!

- Employee
Company culture
Company focused on bottom line more than its consumer.
Support from Management
Supervisor left many important decisions to staff vote.
Colleagues thrived on drama.
Staff meetings were held regularly, however, were usually late in starting.
Gender Equality
All employees were women, but upper management was male. It felt like an unsupportive environment.
Career Development
Education was supported and there was ample oppotunity to improve carreer options.

I was so pleased with these sunglasses that I immediately ordered another pair (the silver aviator one) for my wif straight jacket oakley se sunglasses are superb. I replaced my Adidas Evil Eye Half Rims and thought I'd give these a go at ˇę16. Wow. I prefer them. Very similar box to the Smiths Optics Pivlock and 5 lenses. The polarised lens is ideal for eliminating water glare. The yellow lens is perfect in low light and the tinted lens for bright light. There is also a clear one. Don't spend ˇę100's on a branded pair, these are every bit as good at one tenth of the price.
You get a whole lot of product for the price with this package. The le usa ray ban or a child. I don't have a wide head but these have to bend outwards to clamp to the side of my head. Yes, clamp! I can look down and swing my head around but they won't fall off because they're evidently too small.
One size. Not exactly helpful. You'd of thought that if there was only one size, it'd.

Wild Venice - 4K
Wildes Venedig - 4K
Who would have thought Venice has itsown beautiful reefs? The Tegnùe, located on the east end of the Lagoon, are home to an astonishing diversity of life, from sponges and sea anemones to scribbled pipefish and flashing squid. Like all the other amazing wildlife, the Tegnùe have been influenced, perhaps created, by centuries of human geo-engineering. The Grand Canal itself is actually the mouth of the river Brenta, descending 200 kms from the Alps! The Lagoon is a hot-spot for exotic birds heading north in spring - year after year, more than 60 species stop at the Lagoon, their first feeding ground after crossing the Mediterranean. Venice's fabulous hidden gardens are hiding-places for pine-martens and geckos, while kestrels use abandoned monasteries to breed, and launch hunting expeditions. In magnificent, atmospheric 4K photography, this film reveals the unexpected natural glories of the world's most beautiful man-made environment.

In the run up to WordCamp Lancaster, we will be featuring some of our speakers here on the website.
How and when did you get started with WordPress?
Aside from using WordPress to build my own blog, I started using it for clients as a federal government contractor. Our client had several smaller offices looking to simplify their web publishing tools, and WordPress was a perfect fit.
If you've attended WordCamp Lancaster before, what's your fondest memory of it? If not, what do you like most about WordCamps?
Whoopie pies! And being able to hang and geek out on WordPress with some of my favorite people from home and from around the country.
What do you hope attendees will take away from your talk?
That people realize that they don't need to have to be PHP and JavaScript experts to contribute to the community. Whether it's speaking at your local meetup or contributing to one of the many make.wordpress.org teams, there's a ton of ways everyone can give back to the project, no matter their experience or skill level.
What are you currently learning?
My motto is "Always be leveling up." I'm always trying to learn all the things, but right now, I'm trying to get over my long-standing JavaScriptphobia. Things like Backbone, the JSON REST API, and React are all a part of that too.
Do you know what a stroopie is? No googling.
Not a clue. But because I'm originally from South Jersey, I call hoagies "subs" and people who come from Pennsylvania to the Jersey Shore "shoobies."
What did you do during the blizzard?
Where can we find you online?
90% of my social media happens on Twitter, @taupecat. That's also my handle on Instagram (where I mostly post pictures of my kids or what I'm drinking (because of my kids ;-)). You can read some of my longer-form stuff at taupecat.com, and I also blog for my agency's site at rp3agency.com/author/tracy-rotton/.
Tracy Rotton's session is titled You Have Something to Say. View the full schedule.
WordCamp Lancaster will be held on March 5th with Contributor Day on March 6th. Get your ticket today.

Cabinet has approved a policy for the use of local building materials in the construction industry. The move, the government believes, will not only help in reducing the cost of construction, but also make use of local materials, including pozzolana.
A statement signed by the Minister for Information, John Tia Akologu, said the implementation of the policy would start with the use of available local materials for the construction of public buildings such as schools, government offices, and public hospitals.
"This is a major policy initiative of the Mills administration, and the details will be announced in the 2011 National Budget," Mr. Akologu added.
Mr. Akologu said Cabinet, at its last sitting, also discussed the resumption of operations of the Volta Aluminium Company (VALCO), and directed the Minister for Energy to "develop a roadmap for the implementation of the integrated aluminium industry, take the necessary steps to obtain the full documentation on the ownership of the company, and liaise with the Minister for Finance & Economic Planning to address the fiscal issues inherent in the proposal."

The trade will be completed once LaRoche passes a physical, which the Pirates require for all new players. LaRoche is traveling to Pittsburgh today from his home in Kansas, so the deal could be announced Friday at the earliest or maybe even Saturday.
Pittsburgh has been after LaRoche since the General Manager's Meetings in November. The two teams were close to a straight LaRoche-for-Gonzalez deal during the Winter Meetings in December, but the Braves wanted another player when Pittsburgh dragged its feet on the deal.
The two teams maintained contact, with the Braves asking for outfielder Chris Duffy in addition to Gonzalez. The Pirates balked at that proposal but continued to press for LaRoche to fill their need for a power hitter. There have been constant rumors in the Pittsburgh media recently about the Pirates' interest in adding LaRoche to their lineup.
The Braves, in need of a lefty to compliment Macay McBride in the bullpen, had to make a decision on the deal. If they had passed it's likely they would have signed one of the few remaining lefty relievers available on the free agent market (Ron Villone or maybe Arthur Lee Rhodes). But instead, General Manager John Schuerholz pulled the trigger on this trade.
LaRoche and the Braves just swapped arbitration figures on Tuesday, with LaRoche asking for $3.7 million and the Braves offering $2.8 million. The Pirates will now have to make an offer to LaRoche. Gonzalez was also eligible for arbitration for the first time and signed with the Pirates earlier this week for $2.3 million to avoid arbitration. So the Braves will save about $1 million dollars with this trade.
Before Bob Wickman was acquired from Cleveland on July 20th, the Braves' bullpen had blown half of the team's 40 save opportunities. That was a major reason the Braves were five games under .500 and 12 games out of first place at the time of the deal. The bullpen struggles contributed to the Braves missing the playoffs for the first time since 1991.
Atlanta answered the first major question for 2007 bullpen when they re-signed Wickman to a one-year contract back in September, but Schuerholz entered the offseason wanting to continue to strengthen an area that caused so many problems last season.
When the discussions with Pittsburgh were breaking down in December in Orlando, Schuerholz turned to Seattle, who were interested in getting lefty Horacio Ramirez for the rotation. Schuerholz got one piece to his puzzle by getting reliever Rafael Soriano for Ramirez in a deal with the Mariners.
Soriano was arguably the best setup man in the American League in 2006. He made 53 appearances and had a 2.25 ERA and 65 strikeouts in 60 innings pitched. Soriano was hit in the head by a line drive in late August and missed the last month of the season, but the Braves say he's healthy and ready to go for this year.
Many would have believed Soriano was enough to help set up Wickman, but the possibility of also adding Gonzalez was just too enticing for Schuerholz. Gonzalez was the Pirates' closer in 2006 and was outstanding. The lefty had no blown saves in his 24 opportunities, along with a 2.17 ERA in his 54 games, and 64 strikeouts in 54 innings pitched.
Gonzalez also missed the entire month of September, but his problem was elbow tendonitis. He had a MRI on his elbow and has been cleared to play this season. Gonzalez resumed a throwing program two weeks ago and has reported no pain. The Braves are confident he's healthy and will be ready this season.
The Pirates originally drafted Gonzalez in the 30th round of the 1997 draft out of San Jacinto Junior College in Houston, Texas. He spent six and a half seasons in the Pirates' minor league system, mainly as a starter. On July 22, 2003, Gonzalez was traded to the Red Sox along with Scott Sauerbeck for Brandon Lyon and Anastacio Martinez.
But in a strange twist Gonzalez was traded back to the Pirates nine days later with Freddy Sanchez (last season's NL batting champ) for Lyon, Martinez, and Jeff Suppan. Twelve days later, on August 11th, Gonzalez would make his big league debut for the Pirates. He pitched in 16 games the rest of that 2003 season and posted a 7.56 ERA.
Then in 2004 Gonzalez started in Triple-A with Nashville. He had a 0.90 ERA in 14 games before being called up to Pittsburgh on May 18th, and with the exception of one day back in AAA, Gonzalez was in the big leagues for good. He had a masterful rookie season. Gonzalez was 3-1 with a 1.25 ERA in 25 games for Pittsburgh, with 32 hits allowed in 43.1 innings, only six walks, and 55 strikeouts.
For his exceptional rookie year, Gonzalez was named to the 2004 Topps Major League All-Star Rookie Team. He ranked third among National League relievers in strikeouts per nine innings pitched (11.4) behind Houston's Brad Lidge (14.9) and the Dodgers' Eric Gagne (12.4). He also ranked second among all major league relievers in walks allowed per nine innings pitched (1.25) behind Philadelphia's Billy Wagner (1.12).
Gonzalez was equally impressive in 2005 with three saves and a 2.70 ERA in 51 games. He allowed only 35 hits in 50 innings, with 31 walks and 58 strikeouts. And then this past season Gonzalez became the Pirates' closer and was 24-for-24 in save opportunities. He has an ERA of 2.37 in his 168 career major league games.
Gonzalez is a hard-throwing left-hander that can hit 96 mph on the radar gun. He also has an effective slider. Gonzalez has been very solid against left-handed batters in his career, limiting them to a .179 batting average (32-for-179) against him.
So now with Gonzalez and Soriano on board the Braves have two effective setup men for Wickman. Gonzalez will also probably get some opportunities to save games, allowing Wickman to not get overworked. Plus, with Gonzalez three years away from free agency, he could replace Wickman whenever the burly right-hander retires or if he were to leave next winter as a free agent.
That trio could represent the best back end of any bullpen in baseball. Plus, with Macay McBride (1.91 ERA in his last 35 games) and Oscar Villarreal (2.63 ERA after the All Star Break) both having strong second halves, that's five of the seven bullpen spots locked up.
Tyler Yates, a favorite of Bobby Cox, could get one of the last two jobs. Yates is a hard-thrower who had a 2.35 ERA in his final 17 games of the season. So there may be only one bullpen opening in spring training with up to ten other pitchers battling it out. Blaine Boyer and Joey Devine, both healthy now, will have a solid chance, but Chad Paronto and Lance Cormier also figure to be in the hunt.
All of a sudden an area that perhaps cost the team another trip to the playoffs last season could be a strength. The Braves' bullpen, at least on paper, could be one of the best in baseball. Compare the above relievers to some of the other top bullpens in the game:
METS: Billy Wagner, Scott Schoenweis, Ambiorix Burgos, Guillermo Mota, Pedro Feliciano, and Aaron Heilman
CUBS: Kerry Wood, Ryan Dempster, Bobby Howry, Scott Eyre, Will Ohman, and Glendon Rusch
PADRES: Trevor Hoffman, Scott Linebrink, Cla Meredith, Scott Cassidy, and Doug Brocail
YANKEES: Mariano Rivera, Kyle Farnsworth, Scott Proctor, Mike Myers, Luis Vizcaino, and Chris Britton
ORIOLES: Chris Ray, Jamie Walker, Danys Baez, Chad Bradford, Scott Williamson, and Todd Williams
TIGERS: Todd Jones, Joel Zumaya, Fernando Rodney, Jose Mesa, Wilfredo Ledezma, and Jason Grilli
INDIANS: Keith Foulke, Joe Borowski, Aaron Fultz, Tom Mastny, Roberto Hernandez, Fernando Cabrera, and Rafael Betancourt
TWINS: Joe Nathan, Jesse Crain, Dennys Reyes, Juan Rincon, Pat Neshek, and Matt Guerrier
ATHLETICS: Huston Street, Justin Duchscherer, Kiko Calero, Alan Embree, Chad Gaudin, and Joe Kennedy
ANGELS: Francisco Rodriguez, Scot Shields, Justin Speier, Darren Oliver, Hector Carrasco, and Chris Resop
The Braves' new bullpen, at least on paper, seems to match up well with those other top relief corps. And a stronger bullpen will obviously mean a lot to the starting rotation, which felt pressured last season to go longer than necessary in many games. Now the Braves can make it a six-inning game if the bullpen is strong, much like they did in 2002 when John Smoltz led the fantastic group including Mike Remlinger, Darren Holmes, and Chris Hammond.
Having Gonzalez and Soriano set up Wickman gives the bullpen order. One of the trouble with last year's arrangement was the lack of order; no reliever clearly knew what his role was in the bullpen. With the closer (Chris Reitsma) struggling, there was a constant audition taking place. But now the Braves know that Wickman and Gonzalez can both close and Soriano and McBride can be the primary set up guys.
Simply having the relievers know what they're going to do should make a huge difference.
The Braves were second in the National League in runs scored with 843, scoring 5.2 per game. But now that offense has lost both LaRoche and second baseman Marcus Giles, who was non-tendered last month and later signed with San Diego.
Heading into the 2006 season the Braves were waiting for LaRoche to turn the corner. He had hit .278 with 13 home runs and 45 RBI in 324 at bats in his rookie season of 2004, and then slipped to a .259 average in 2005 with 20 home runs and 78 RBI in 451 at bats.
As usual, LaRoche started off slow last April hitting only .200. His platoon partner for 2006, Brian Jordan, started to show his age a bit in May as he hit only .178 in 45 at bats. And then on June 17th Jordan broke his clavicle, which became a blessing in disguise for LaRoche.
With James Jurries struggling in Richmond, the Braves did not have a right-handed hitting first baseman to bring up to replace Jordan on the roster. So instead, Scott Thorman, another lefty hitter, was brought up. That gave LaRoche the opportunity he needed to prove he was an everyday player.
When LaRoche got to the ballpark on June 17th to face the Boston Red Sox, he was hitting only .247 with 11 home runs and 36 RBI in 198 at bats. But after Jordan's injury LaRoche was handed the full-time job and responded. For the rest of the season, LaRoche hit .310 with 21 home runs, 54 RBI, 23 doubles, and 91 hits in 294 at bats in 83 games.
Overall, LaRoche finished with a .285 batting average, 32 home runs (second best on the team), 90 RBI (fourth best on the team), and 38 doubles (second best on the team) in 492 at bats. His 57 RBI on the road tied him for eighth best in the National League. Adam became just the third Braves first baseman to hit 30+ home runs in a season (Fred McGriff in 1994 and Andres Galarraga in 1998). It was clearly a breakout year for the son of former big league pitcher Dave LaRoche.
LaRoche mostly batted seventh in the Atlanta lineup (61 times), but also hit fifth (40 times) and in five other spots in the order. With Chipper Jones a switch-hitter, LaRoche was the primary left-handed power hitter for the team. Brian McCann, also a lefty hitter, hit 24 home runs (although 18 after the All Star Break) and will be counted on for more this season.
So who will replace LaRoche at first base? The favorite is Scott Thorman, selected twenty-nine rounds ahead of LaRoche in the 2000 draft. He's also a lefty hitter with tremendous power potential.
Thorman was mainly a pitcher in high school, but the Braves were more impressed with his bat. He was also a third baseman, but a shoulder injury that cost him all of the 2001 season forced the Braves to move him across the diamond to first base. Immediately there were comparisons to former Brave Ryan Klesko, who was also a pitcher in high school but caught the Braves eye more with his bat as well.
Thorman, like Klesko, also had a violent and powerful swing, and it did not take him long to become a solid offensive prospect. After he sat out 2001 with his shoulder trouble, Thorman had a great 2002 campaign in Low-A Macon. Thorman hit .294 with 16 home runs, 82 RBI, and a league-leading 38 doubles in 470 at bats.
The Canadian-born Thorman had his first struggles in 2003 in Myrtle Beach, as he hit only .243 with 12 home runs and 56 runs batted in. The Braves then sent him back to Myrtle Beach to start the 2004 season, and Thorman responded with a .299 average in his first 43 games. He was promoted to Double-A Greenville, but again he struggled a bit hitting only .252. He showed that power, hitting 11 home runs and driving in 51, but the dip in the average forced the Braves to send him back to AA to start the next season.
When the AA affiliate moved to Pearl, Mississippi to start the 2005 season, Thorman made his mark on the Southern League. He again improved when he returned to the level he had ended at the previous year, hitting .305 with 15 home runs, 65 RBI, and 21 doubles in 348 at bats. The Braves then sent him up to Triple-A Richmond, where he hit a respectable .276 with 6 home runs and 27 RBI in just 52 games.
Last season, with LaRoche fully entrenched as Atlanta's starter at first, the Braves sent Thorman back to Richmond. And again Thorman did even better the second time around in a league. He was hitting .324 (second in the International League) with 15 home runs (also second in the IL) and 44 RBI (tied for fourth) when he was called up to the big leagues on June 18th, the day after Brian Jordan went down with his injury.
Thorman stayed with Atlanta until August 15th, when he was sent back to Triple-A to finish out the final two weeks of the minor league regular season. The Braves then called him back up to finish the season in Atlanta. Overall in the majors, Thorman hit .234 with 5 home runs, 14 RBI, and 11 doubles in 128 at bats.
When rumors first popped out in December that LaRoche might be traded, the Braves expressed confidence that Thorman would be more than adequate as a potential replacement. Along with the comparisons to Klesko, Thorman has also been compared to Indians' first baseman Travis Hafner, who had a breakout season of his own in 2007.
But do not expect Thorman to immediately replace LaRoche's 32 home runs. He might eventually hit 32 home runs in a season, but to expect him to do it as a rookie might be unrealistic and unfair. Particularly with Bobby Cox's penchant for platooning young lefty hitters, Thorman is going to have to prove he can hit lefty pitchers before getting full-time duty, just as LaRoche had to do in his first three years in the majors.
Scouts do, however, believe Thorman can develop into a solid power hitter that might hit 25-35 home runs per year in the big leagues. And seeing how he has improved each of the last three years when returning to the level he finished at the previous season, Thorman also has a history of making the necessary adjustments to become a better hitter.
Defensively, Thorman will not be as strong as LaRoche, who was a Gold Glove-caliber player at first base. But Thorman will be a solid player, making the routine plays and an occasional gold star play. He'll be solid defensively, but not as spectacular as LaRoche.
The Braves will probably look to bring in a veteran to get some at bats with Thorman, as they did with by keeping Julio Franco around when LaRoche was establishing himself as a big leaguer. Also, for the long-term, the club may now look to get catching prospect Jarrod Saltalamacchia some more reps at first base. 'Salty' will probably go back to AA Mississippi, but with Brian McCann fully entrenched behind the plate in Atlanta, the 21-year-old switch-hitter might improve his versatility by playing a little at first base.
Also included in the trade are shortstop Brent Lillibridge, heading to the Braves' organization, and outfielder Jamie Romak, now a Pirate.
The Braves are thrilled with the addition of Lillibridge, who was drafted by Pittsburgh in the fourth round of the 2005 draft out of the University of Washington. He's a speedy 5-foot-11, 182-pounder out of Everett, Washington that can play the outfield, shortstop, and second base.
Lillibridge was a first-team All-PAC 10 Conference player as a junior in 2005. He hit .330 and led the Huskies in most offensive categories, including doubles (19), triples (4), home runs (tied with 8), RBI (45) and walks (36). Baseball America rated Lillibridge as the second best player in the state of Washington and the 88th best player in the country heading into the 2005 draft.
After the Pirates drafted him, Lillibridge hit .243 (41-for-169) with 4 home runs and 18 RBI in 42 games for Williamsport in the New York-Penn League. But this past season Lillibridge really became a top prospect. He started out with Hickory in the Sally League and hit .299 with 11 home runs, 43 RBI, 18 doubles, 51 walks, and 29 stolen bases in 74 games.
The Pirates then promoted Lillibridge to High-A Lynchburg in the Carolina League and the righty hitter did even better in 54 games. Lillibridge hit .313 with 28 RBI, 10 doubles, 36 walks, and 24 stolen bases in 201 at bats. Overall in 2006, Lillibridge hit .305 with 13 home runs, 71 RBI, 28 doubles, eight triples, and 53 stolen bases in 475 at bats.
Lillibridge has excellent speed and has hit second in the lineup for most of his pro career, but he can also leadoff. He immediately becomes one of the Braves' fastest prospects, and the Braves are in need of speedsters for the future. He shows impressive pop in his bat with extra base hit potential, along with excellent plate discipline.
Defensively Lillibridge played centerfield in college at Washington. The Pirates have had him at shortstop in his pro career for all but one game, when he suited up and played at second base last year in Hickory. He has solid hands and a strong throwing arm. With questions about the long-term situation at second base, you wonder if Lillibridge could see some action there this season.
Pirates Dugout.com, the Pirates' website on the Scout.com network, rated Lillibridge as the Pirates' sixth best prospect, while John Sickels of minorleagueball.com and Baseball Prospectus both named Lillibridge the Pirates' third best prospect this winter.
An American League scout told The Braves Show Wednesday that Lillibridge is similar to Brian Roberts, the Orioles' second baseman that was almost acquired for LaRoche and Marcus Giles last month at the winter meetings. Roberts also has excellent speed and can play shortstop and second base. Another scout compared Lillibridge to Ryan Freel for his speed and intensity.
The Braves will likely send Lillibridge to Double-A Mississippi, where he'll play shortstop next to second baseman J.C. Holt, another speedster. With a solid season in 2007, Lillibridge could knock on the big league door a year from now. His presence further improves the shortstop depth. The Braves also have Tony Pena, Jr., Yunel Escobar, Elvis Andrus, and Chase Fontaine as shortstop prospects.
Along with a need for power at the major league level, the Pirates had a lack of power in the minors as well. So Jamie Romak will now fill that role in Pittsburgh's system. Romak was also a fourth round pick, as the Braves selected him in the 2003 out of Canada as a third baseman. Scouting Director Roy Clark labeled Romak at the time as a "right-handed version of Scott Thorman."
Romak was originally a third baseman, but the Braves moved him to the outfield. He battled injuries for a couple of years, hurting his back two weeks after reporting to the Gulf Coast League in 2003 and then breaking his wrist in 2005. Even though he missed the last six weeks of the season, Romak did start to show some of his power in 2005 with seven home runs and 27 RBI in 124 at bats for Danville.
The Braves really hoped Romak would break out in 2006 and at first the signs were not positive. On May 4th of this past season, Romak was hitting only .136 with three home runs and 10 RBI in his first 20 games of the season. So the Braves sent him back down to Orlando and the Extended Spring Training program to try to get him back on track.
The two-week stint in Florida did just that, as after Romak returned he hit .273 in his remaining 88 games with 13 home runs and 58 RBI in 282 at bats. A tough month of June (.196 average) kept his average from being even higher. But after July 1st, Romak hit .283 with 11 home runs and 40 RBI in just 187 at bats.
Romak is still a few years away from being ready for the big leagues, but his power potential does give him a legitimate chance. Defensively he's got a strong arm in right field and has made great strides. He'll probably be assigned to the Pirates' affiliate in the Carolina League this April.
The Braves were able to part with Romak due to good outfield depth in A-ball. They'll have Jordan Schafer, Ivan Terrezas, and Quentin Davis competing for jobs in Myrtle Beach this spring. Above them in Double-A there will be six players competing for jobs including Brandon Jones, Josh Burrus, Carl Loadenthal, Matt Young, Steve Doetsch, and Matt Esquivel.
Again, the trade is not official. LaRoche must first fly to Pittsburgh (scheduled to leave his home in Kansas Thursday morning) and pass a physical. So the trade may not be announced until Friday afternoon or Saturday at the latest.

Worst. Dead-Cat Bounce. Ever.
Stocks tried their darnedest to rebound today, bless 'em, with the Dow up nearly 80 points around lunchtime, despite the weight of Exxon Mobil around their necks.
But the buyers went to lunch and never came back. The market drifted lower all afternoon, and the selling gathered force in the last hour of trading, cramming the Dow firmly into the red for the day.

The owner of the property, Dominic, completely lacked in customer service skills and is a rude, untrustworthy man. For days no one cleaned the rooms and no one washed the linens. There was trash that, in the entire month I stayed there, was never taken out. The aircon never worked in several of the rooms and they threatened to turn the electricity off on us because some of the occupants were "using too much".
The atmosphere was terrible- they played music late into the night and let locals come use the pool on the weekends. It was loud constantly.
We were constantly cheated on our food portions and overcharged on our drinks. Things were also stolen from several of the occupants- Dominic dismissed this, but he leaves the keys out in the open all day and all the things we "checked in" with him for safekeeping were also left out on the desk. The gate was also often left ajar and people roamed the property with no security stopping them.
The only good thing was the location. But I'm sure there are places closer, just as cheap, and a lot nicer.

Pharmacologic Category
- Insulin, Intermediate-Acting
Insulin acts via specific membrane-bound receptors on target tissues to regulate metabolism of carbohydrate, protein, and fats. Target organs for insulin include the liver, skeletal muscle, and adipose tissue.
Within the liver, insulin stimulates hepatic glycogen synthesis. Insulin promotes hepatic synthesis of fatty acids, which are released into the circulation as lipoproteins. Skeletal muscle effects of insulin include increased protein synthesis and increased glycogen synthesis. Within adipose tissue, insulin stimulates the processing of circulating lipoproteins to provide free fatty acids, facilitating triglyceride synthesis and storage by adipocytes; also directly inhibits the hydrolysis of triglycerides. In addition, insulin stimulates the cellular uptake of amino acids and increases cellular permeability to several ions, including potassium, magnesium, and phosphate. By activating sodium-potassium ATPases, insulin promotes the intracellular movement of potassium.
Normally secreted by the pancreas, insulin products are manufactured for pharmacologic use through recombinant DNA technology using either E. coli or Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Insulins are categorized based on the onset, peak, and duration of effect (eg, rapid-, short-, intermediate-, and long-acting insulin). Insulin NPH, an isophane suspension of human insulin, is an intermediate-acting insulin.
Onset of Action
1-2 hours; Peak effect: 4-12 hours
Time to Peak
Plasma: 6-10 hours
Duration of Action
14-24 hours
Use: Labeled Indications
Treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus (insulin dependent, IDDM) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (noninsulin dependent, NIDDM) to improve glycemic control
Off Label Uses
Gestational diabetes mellitus
Based on the American Diabetic Association (ADA) guidelines for the Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes, insulin is an effective and recommended option in the treatment of gestational diabetes mellitus.
Hypersensitivity to insulin NPH or any component of the formulation
Dosing: Adult
Diabetes mellitus: Note: Insulin NPH is an intermediate-acting insulin formulation which is usually administered subcutaneously once or twice daily. When compared to insulin regular, insulin NPH has a slower onset and longer duration of activity. Insulin requirements vary dramatically between patients and dictate frequent monitoring and close medical supervision.
Diabetes mellitus, type 1: SubQ:
General insulin dosing:
Note: Multiple daily doses are utilized and guided by blood glucose monitoring. Combinations of different insulin formulations are commonly used. The daily doses presented below are expressed as the total units/kg/day of all insulin formulations combined.
Usual maintenance range: SubQ: 0.5 to 1 units/kg/day in divided doses. An estimate of anticipated needs may be based on body weight and/or activity factors as follows:
Nonobese: 0.4 to 0.6 units/kg/day
Obese: 0.8 to 1.2 units/kg/day
Pubescent Children and Adolescents: During puberty, requirements may substantially increase to >1 unit/kg/day and in some cases up to 2 units/kg/day (IDF-ISPAD, 2011).
Division of daily insulin requirement ("conventional therapy"): Generally, 50% to 75% of the total daily dose (TDD) is given as an intermediate-acting (eg, NPH) or a long-acting form of insulin (in 1 to 2 daily injections). The remaining portion of the TDD is then divided and administered before or at mealtimes (depending on the formulation) as a rapid-acting or short-acting form of insulin.
Adjustment of dose: Dosage must be titrated to achieve glucose control and avoid hypoglycemia. Adjust dose to maintain premeal and bedtime glucose in target range. Since combinations of agents are frequently used, dosage adjustment must address the individual component of the insulin regimen which most directly influences the blood glucose value in question, based on the known onset and duration of the insulin component. Treatment and monitoring regimens must be individualized. Also see Additional Information or Pharmacotherapy Pearls.
Diabetes mellitus, type 2: Augmentation therapy (patients for which diet, exercise, weight reduction, and oral hypoglycemic agents have not been adequate): SubQ: Initial dosage of 0.2 units/kg/day or 10 units/day of an intermediate-acting (eg, NPH) or long-acting insulin administered at bedtime has been recommended. As an alternative, regular insulin or rapid-acting insulin formulations administered before meals have also been used. Dosage must be carefully adjusted.
General considerations for insulin use in type 2 diabetes:
Timing of initiation: The goal of therapy is to achieve an HbA1c <7%. According to a position statement by the ADA and European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD), dual therapy (metformin + a second antihyperglycemic agent) is recommended in patients with type 2 diabetes who fail to achieve glycemic goals after ~3 months with lifestyle interventions and metformin monotherapy (unless contraindications to metformin exist). Preference is not given for adding insulin or a noninsulin agent as the second antihyperglycemic agent (drug choice should be individualized based on patient characteristics). However, insulin should be considered as part of a combination regimen when hyperglycemia is severe, particularly if patient is symptomatic or has catabolic features (eg, weight loss, ketosis). If insulin is selected, the addition of basal insulin (ie, a long-acting insulin such as glargine or detemir) is recommended. If HbA1c target not achieved after ~3 months of dual therapy, may proceed to triple therapy (Inzucchi 2015).
Intensification of therapy: If HbA1c target has not been met, despite titrating basal insulin (ie, long-acting insulin) to provide acceptable fasting blood glucose concentrations, intensification of therapy should be considered to cover postprandial glucose excursions. Options include adding a mealtime insulin (1 to 3 injections of a rapid-acting insulin analog [lispro, aspart, glulisine]) or adding a GLP-1 receptor agonist (eg, exenatide, liraglutide). Alternatively, although less studied, may transition from basal insulin (ie, long-acting insulin) to a twice daily premixed (or biphasic) insulin analog (70/30 aspart mix, 75/25 or 50/50 lispro mix) (Inzucchi 2015).

For SubQ administration:
Humulin® N vials: May be diluted with the universal diluent, Sterile Diluent for Humalog®, Humulin® N, Humulin® R, Humulin® 70/30, and Humulin® R U-500. Do not dilute insulin contained in a cartridge or prefilled pen.
Novolin® N: Insulin Diluting Medium for NovoLog® is not intended for use with Novolin® N or any insulin product other than insulin aspart.
SubQ administration: For subcutaneous administration into the thigh, upper arm, buttocks, or abdomen; do not administer IM or IV, or in an insulin pump. Rotate injection sites within the same region to reduce the risk of lipodystrophy. In order to properly resuspend the insulin, vials should be carefully shaken or rolled several times, prefilled pens should be rolled between the palms ten times and inverted 180° ten times, and cartridges should be inverted 180° at least ten times. Properly resuspended insulin NPH should look uniformly cloudy or milky; do not use if any white insulin substance remains at the bottom of the container, if any clumps are present, or if white particles are stuck to the bottom or wall of the container. Cold injections should be avoided. When mixing insulin NPH with other preparations of insulin (eg, insulin aspart, insulin glulisine, insulin lispro, insulin regular), insulin NPH should be drawn into the syringe after the other insulin preparations. Do not dilute or mix other insulin formulations with insulin NPH contained in a cartridge or prefilled pen.
Dietary Considerations
Individualized medical nutrition therapy (MNT) based on ADA recommendations is an integral part of therapy.

Concerns related to adverse effects:
• Hypoglycemia: The most common adverse effect of insulin is hypoglycemia. The timing of hypoglycemia differs among various insulin formulations. Hypoglycemia may result from increased work or exercise without eating; use of long-acting insulin preparations (eg, insulin detemir, insulin glargine) may delay recovery from hypoglycemia. Profound and prolonged episodes of hypoglycemia may result in convulsions, unconsciousness, temporary or permanent brain damage or even death. Insulin requirements may be altered during illness, emotional disturbances or other stressors. Instruct patients to use caution with ethanol; may increase risk of hypoglycemia.
• Hypokalemia: Insulin (especially IV insulin) causes a shift of potassium from the extracellular space to the intracellular space, possibly producing hypokalemia. If left untreated, hypokalemia may result in respiratory paralysis, ventricular arrhythmia and even death. Use with caution in patients at risk for hypokalemia (eg, loop diuretic use). Monitor serum potassium and supplement potassium when necessary.
Disease-related concerns:
• Hepatic impairment: Use with caution in patients with hepatic impairment. Dosage requirements may be reduced.
• Renal impairment: Use with caution in patients with renal impairment. Dosage requirements may be reduced.
Concurrent drug therapy issues:
• Drug-drug interactions: Potentially significant interactions may exist, requiring dose or frequency adjustment, additional monitoring, and/or selection of alternative therapy. Consult drug interactions database for more detailed information.
Dosage form specific issues:
• Multiple dose injection pens: According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), pen-shaped injection devices should never be used for more than one person (even when the needle is changed) because of the risk of infection. The injection device should be clearly labeled with individual patient information to ensure that the correct pen is used (CDC, 2012).
Other warnings/precautions:
• Administration: Insulin NPH is NOT intended for IV or IM administration.
• Appropriate use: Diabetes mellitus: The general objective of exogenous insulin therapy is to approximate the physiologic pattern of insulin secretion which is characterized by two distinct phases. Phase 1 insulin secretion suppresses hepatic glucose production and phase 2 insulin secretion occurs in response to carbohydrate ingestion; therefore, exogenous insulin therapy may consist of basal insulin (eg, intermediate- [insulin NPH] or long-acting insulin or via continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion [CSII]) and/or preprandial insulin (eg, short- or rapid-acting insulin) (see Related Information: Insulin Products). Patients with type 1 diabetes do not produce endogenous insulin; therefore, these patients require both basal and preprandial insulin administration. Patients with type 2 diabetes retain some beta-cell function in the early stages of their disease; however, as the disease progresses, phase 1 insulin secretion may become completely impaired and phase 2 insulin secretion becomes delayed and/or inadequate in response to meals. Therefore, patients with type 2 diabetes may be treated with oral antidiabetic agents, basal insulin, and/or preprandial insulin depending on the stage of disease and current glycemic control. Since treatment regimens often consist of multiple agents, dosage adjustments must address the specific phase of insulin release that is primarily contributing to the patient's impaired glycemic control. Treatment and monitoring regimens must be individualized.
• Patient education: Diabetes self-management education (DSME) is essential to maximize the effectiveness of therapy.
Monitoring Parameters
Diabetes mellitus: Plasma glucose, electrolytes, HbA1c (at least twice yearly in patients who have stable glycemic control and are meeting treatment goals; quarterly in patients not meeting treatment goals or with therapy change [ADA 2016a])
Pregnancy Risk Factor
Pregnancy Considerations
Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted; however, use provides maternal and fetal benefits.
In women with diabetes, maternal hyperglycemia can be associated with congenital malformations as well as adverse effects in the fetus, neonate, and the mother (ACOG 2005; ADA 2016d; Kitzmiller 2008; Metzger 2007). To prevent adverse outcomes, prior to conception and throughout pregnancy maternal blood glucose and HbA1c should be kept as close to target goals as possible but without causing significant hypoglycemia (ACOG 2013; ADA 2016d; Blumer 2013; Kitzmiller 2008; Lambert 2013). Prior to pregnancy, effective contraception should be used until glycemic control is achieved (ADA 2016d; Kitzmiller 2008).
Insulin requirements tend to fall during the first trimester of pregnancy and increase in the later trimesters, peaking at 28 to 32 weeks of gestation. Following delivery, insulin requirements decrease rapidly (ACOG 2005). NPH insulin may be used to treat diabetes in pregnant women (Blumer 2013; Kitzmiller 2008; Lambert 2013).
Patient Education
• Discuss specific use of drug and side effects with patient as it relates to treatment. (HCAHPS: During this hospital stay, were you given any medicine that you had not taken before? Before giving you any new medicine, how often did hospital staff tell you what the medicine was for? How often did hospital staff describe possible side effects in a way you could understand?)
• Have patient report immediately to prescriber signs of low blood sugar (dizziness, headache, fatigue, feeling weak, shaking, a fast heartbeat, confusion, hunger, or sweating), signs of low potassium (muscle pain or weakness, muscle cramps, or an abnormal heartbeat), vision changes, chills, burning or numbness feeling, arrhythmia, severe dizziness, passing out, mood changes, seizures, slurred speech, severe injection site irritation, or change in skin to thick or thin at injection site (HCAHPS).
• Educate patient about signs of a significant reaction (eg, wheezing; chest tightness; fever; itching; bad cough; blue skin color; seizures; or swelling of face, lips, tongue, or throat). Note: This is not a comprehensive list of all side effects. Patient should consult prescriber for additional questions.
