In an earlier post I discussed the work of Cantor to use cardinality to distinguish between different infinite sets. Recall that Cantor defined two sets A and B to have the same cardinality if there is a one-to-one onto function between them. We showed that the natural numbers, even numbers all have the same cardinality. More surprisingly, the natural numbers have the same cardinality as the rational. At this point, one might think that all infinite sets have the same cardinality. Cantor found that the set of real numbers has cardinality greater than the set of natural numbers. We will prove this by proving the slightly stronger result that the set of real numbers between zero and one have cardinality greater than the cardinality set of positive integers. That is I will show |A| > |N| where A is the set of positive real numbers that are less than 1. We shall use an argument due to Cantor called the diagonalization argument. This argument is due to Cantor but is not his original line of argument. We will sketch this proof in base 10 and then discuss issues that come up when trying to modify the proof for base 2.
We will assume there is a one-to-one onto function f from |N| to A as n ranges from 1 to infinity. We denote by fk(n) the kth decimal digit of f(n). We then want to look at fn(n). This forms the diagonal of our list of numbers, hence the name of this argument. To make this more concrete let us assume that we have f(1)=.618… f(2)=.141… and f(3)=.718… so we have a list that looks like:
1) .618…
2) .141…
3) .718…
The bolded digits are those that are fn(n) for some n. Now, we make a new number D. D is defined as having a 4 in the kth place of its decimal expansion past the decimal point except when fk(k)=4 in which case there is a 5. Thus in our earlier example list D would start with .454… Now, we claim that D cannot be anywhere on our list since D disagrees with the nth number on our list in the nth decimal place (D has a 4 there precisely when f(n) does not, has a 5 when f(n) has a 4). Thus, our list is not complete and we have reached a contradiction. A few things to note: First, this result was completely constructive. It allows us given any function f from N to A to construct an element of A that is not in the range of f. Second, nothing was special about 4 and 5, although choosing 9 instead of 4 might have been problematic because if D ended in all 9s then we would have a string that should not be on our list anyways (by our convention for terminating decimals).
Now I'd like to address a question that Etienne asked in the comment's thread of the previous post on this topic. It is easy to see in the above argument that we could use any base b rather than base 10 as long as b>2. However, in base 2 there's a problem: we only have two digits available for our number D. Thus, using this argument straight off we must choose one of them to be the digit 1 which in base 2 will trigger the same rollover problem that 9 triggers in base 10. Etienne asked if there is a way to repair this hole in the proof for base 2. I assert that it is possible although it requires some careful attention to detail. A brief sketch of how to repair it follows.
Assume we are in the same situation as earlier, but we write fn(n) for base 2 rather than base 10. Further, use the same convention as earlier that in an ambiguous situation we use 00s rather than 1s. Now, unless fn(n) extends a string of all 0s our earlier proof will go through and we will be done. If fn(n) is 0 for all arbitrarily large n then we will construct a function g that is also a 1-1 onto map from N to A that has arbitrarily large n such that gn(n) is 1. We define g as follows: Start with f. Then permute f as follows: At each n that is a power of 2 starting at 1, if fn(n) is 0 then we can pick some t>n such that ft(n)=1 and fn(t)=ft(t). We do this for every successive power of 2, unless that power of 2 was already used in a swap. When we complete this process we will have a new function g such that there are arbitrarily large n such that gn(n) is 1 and we get the desired contradiction.
Cantor proved much more than what we have proved here. Cantor showed that there is an infinite hierarchy of infinite sets of successively higher cardinalities. I will discuss this and related results in a later post.

The PICAxe is a very handy microcontroller, but it's easier to use if you have a prototyping PCB to mount it to! HVWTech is the place to get it!
The PICAxe-14M Project Board Kit is great for rapidly building your PICAxe-based project.
It offers a buffered output circuit using the ULN2003A darlington driver (a very common "muscle" chip), that will let you have more-than-ample power to drive a LED, speaker, or a motor (in one direction - it isn't an H-Bridge chip). There's even a set of resistors included to scale the output voltages down to 3.3V if your system requires it!
Note, though, that this does not include a PICAXE 14M IC. But you can get one right here!

This is in reference to ISSUE-4 (http://www.w3.org/2009/sparql/track/issues/4) and is in discharge of ACTION-16. At the F2F, we had a short discussion about variable scope and subqueries: http://www.w3.org/2009/sparql/meeting/2009-05-07#line0199 At the time, Axel asked for a fleshed out example of the query that Andy used on IRC to demonstrate the scoping issue. Andy's query on IRC was : SELECT * { {?x :p ?v } { SELECT * { ?x :q ?w FILTER (?v>3) } } } ...but I don't believe that demonstrates the proper issue. The above query has the (non-)issue of whether ?v is visible inside the subquery. I believe that SPARQL Query/1.0 already answers that: the bottom-up nature of SPARQL's algebra means that the scope of the FILTER is within the subquery's group. The only way that this FILTER would apply to bindings from the {?x :p ?v} BGP is via a top-down evaluation model, and that would be a breaking change to current SPARQL semantics. Instead, I think this query demonstrates the scoping issue for subqueries: SELECT * { ?x :p1 ?y {SELECT ?x { ?x :p 2?y }} FILTER(?y > 3)} The question is, I think, does the subquery's projection completely hide the "inner" ?y from the rest of the query? I believe there was clear consensus at the F2F that the answer is "yes", which is consistent with current SPARQL bottom-up semantics and with projection in general. Anyway, having reviewed this issue, I think it's more of a non-issue, as I haven't seen any advocates for an alternative approach. If anyone is unhappy with this resolution to ISSUE-4, please let us know. LeeReceived on Monday, 31 August 2009 05:46:47 UTC

Lopez Island Holiday
We spent the last week enjoying the perfect August weather of Lopez Island. A small island in the San Juan chain of islands near the Washington/Canadian border. We left our car at the Anacortes parking lot and cycled to our short term destination, "Cozy Cabin" in the woods. Here are just a few of the sights and sounds that are likely to fuel dyepots and knit projects for the future.

and we have a new home! If you've come over from our old site I hope
you'll take a second to click on the "subscribe" button in the
Navigation Bar and update your NIK subscription.
spent the last week moving all the old files and posts, and I gotta say,
I have been cracking up at so many of your comments! Some I haven't

knitting community. To be so large we certainly seem so small... which
is just how I like it!
I have several new things to
post about: finished knits, new patterns, updates. And I'm looking
forward to getting back to posting about the insanity which is my life
(and the knits that reside therein).
Things are still
in transition and I hope to have my sidebar completed by tomorrow. In
the meantime, if you are looking for a specific pattern you can click on
the "SHOP" button in the Nav Bar and it will take you to my Ravelry
shop where you'll find all my patterns.
If you have any questions please email me! Or shoot me a PM on Rav {jenleigh}. I'm looking forward to catching up with you!

Saving the James Webb is a long and winding process. Multiple senate/sub committee votes to pass/go through before the scope is in fact "saved" though it's looking likely to get its funding. The question though remains...what impact will a funded JWST have on other NASA science missions? The JWST is a hugely risky project for sure, a real "it has to work first time or nothing" job, but...if it does work, the results will be quite astonishing.
BREAKING NEWS: The U.S. Senate has just passed the CJS bill with full funding for JWST: http://1.usa.gov/san4qt. Previously, a Senate subcommittee voted for full funding ($529 million), but it had yet to pass a full vote in the Senate. That happened today. A MASSIVE thank you to U.S. Senator Barbara A. Mikulski for championing this bill in the Senate. | Next Up: The House and Senate will reconcile their bills to produce a final figure for JWST in FY2012.

Walmart Fabrics
We have this saying here in the Islands... "Lucky you live Hawai`i!" Anyway that is exactly how I felt when I visited Walmart and found these great Japanese fabrics (Kokka brand!)... We're so influenced by Japanese culture here that these lovely fabrics have made a lasting impression on Walmart, and they've been carrying a very limited selection of kawaii Japanese Fabrics for a few months now. (I know, I know, Walmart is a semi-evil corporation, but I can't help myself... they're so cheap!) This was the first time I've seen these specific fabrics anywhere in Hawai`i, and I've been coveting that pink one for a long time! Just in case any of my fellow Hawai`i peeps are interested, I got these from the Ke`eaumoku Walmart; I'm not sure if the others have them.

I looked but they are not in the walmarts I live around over here in Michigan. I love them that retro vintage style is my favorite and I LOVE Japanese Kawaiiness :PReplyDelete
Maybe I can get my hubby to find a job where we can live next door to you and I can get all the cute goodies from walmart hehe.

The test chip processor Intel Core i7-3630QM has 7.6 points equal to the previous, but the difference is that the points in the graphic, which is more than 0.1. In part this is due to the processor speed, the greater the performance of the graphics to be more efficient as well.

New Y480 Core i7-3630QM
Old Y480 Core i7-3610QM
LENOVO IdeaPad Y480 is a good temperature control. Temperature is about 80 degree Celsius. It remained very good. Compared to the Intel Core i7 processor chips in the other bands, as high as 90 degrees Celsius. May be because the device is designed to provide better cooling.
- Upgrade processor is Intel Core i7-3630QM.
- Backlit keyboard
- Temperature controlled to a great extent.
- Performance is worth the price.
- Work, play games at a good level.
- JBL speakers sound better.
After the test and LENOVO IdeaPad Y480 Comparison between the new upgraded chip from the old version. You see the difference between these two notebooks. The processor speed up to 100Hz and the RAM to 4GB to be cut down to save costs. However, You can remove the remaining money to upgrade the RAM yourself.
Overall, then, this is a laptop that is good value for money in the budget not exceeding $1000; LENOVO IdeaPad Y480 5934-5183 core i7 3630QM+GT650M certainly did not disappoint.

Malaysia has its origins in the Malay kingdoms present in the area which, from the 18th century, became subject to the British Empire. The first British territories were known as the Straits Settlements, whose establishment was followed by the Malay kingdoms becoming British protectorates. The territories on Peninsular Malaysia were first unified as the Malayan Union in 1946. Malaya was restructured as the Federation of Malaya in 1948, and achieved independence on 31 August 1957. Malaya united with North Borneo, Sarawak, and Singapore on 16 September 1963. Less than two years later in 1965, Singapore was expelled from the federation.

Camberwell, the leafy (ish) corner of South East London that's the birthplace of the Carrot ('I invented it in Camberwell and it's shaped like a carrot') Boris Karloff, and Florence of Machine fame, as well as being the home of the curious concrete submarine-shaped block that acts as a vent shaft for a subterranean boiler room providing heating to the adjacent housing estates.
Most of this quirky behemoth was sadly surrounded by hoardings trumpeting a 'visionary new development' in the 'Oval Quarter' (no, me neither) when we visited. Although the area is experiencing the same insidious creep of gentrification that can be seen across most of London, it looks as though this concrete curiosity is set to remain pumping out power, after the chimneys were extended by four metres each last year. Which is more than can be said for all the council residents that have been shipped out of the area to accommodate the controversial new development.
One recent addition to the area that has been much better received is Theo's Pizzeria, a traditional wood-fired pizza restaurant just off Camberwell Church Street, offering Italianate delights such as aubergine parmagiana, cheesy garlic focaccia and potato and mozzarella croquettes to the lucky residents of SE5.
The succinct beer list runs from the standard Moretti to the local Orbit Nico kolsh lager (brewed up the road in Walworth) and Kernel Table Beer (brewed up the road in Bermondsey). Despite Stealth's reservations about its low ABV (but that's piss-weak) we got through a couple of frosty jugs of the latter, the perfect choice for a warm mid-afternoon when there was plenty more still to be done after our lunch.
From a strong list of starters and side – the aforementioned croquettes and the pizza fritta looked particularly dreamy - we chose a little snack of Mortadella, pickled green chillies and crescentine, a kind of puffy pillow of fried dough, sprinkled with salt to nibble on waiting for our pizzas.
Add some of their magnificent homemeade red chilli sauce, and you've got yourself pretty much the most perfect starter - despite the Ewing's misgivings about having to attempt to 'share' with Stealth, who is still famous for taking two chocolates (one for now and one for later) every time you offer her the selection box (it always ends badly - TE).
The pizzas served at Theo's are Neapolitan-style pies with a sourdough base; fired very quickly at very hot temperatures in their wood-fired oven that – in an ideal world - leaves them with a puffy and blistered crust and a perfectly melted middle.
Now I'm a pizza whore, and would eat almost anything involving dough and cheese, but Neapolitan pizzas are my favourite of all. They are also probably the hardest to get right, as the brief cooking time means that if the pizza isn't fired at a hot enough temperature, or has too many toppings, you are left with a pallid, doughy crust and a soggy bottom covered in a puddle of lukewarm tomato soup.
Thankfully, they had clearly stoked their fires and my pie, the Camberwell scotch bonnet n'duja with sopressata sausage, was gooey and charred in all the right places. Topping wise this was also the perfect combo – hot sausage, oozy cheese and just the right amount of tomato, before being strewn with a handful of fresh basil that smelt like the final, glorious throes of summer as it arrived at our table.
Stealth was very happy with her scotch bonnet pie with added mushrooms (her favourite foodstuff, alongside the gala pie), while the Ewing pimped the anchovy and olive combo with some mozzarella and extra wood-fire roasted aubergine.
Pizzas start at £5.50 for a Marinara, topping out at a tenner for fancy stuff like a pizza bianca with sausage and wild broccoli - which is still approximately half the cost of a Dominos while giving you approximately twice as much pleasure, especially if you slather it in some more of their red chilli sauce.

Despite missing the summer cut-off point - owing the fact it was two days after the vernal equinox, and now officially autumn - I still couldn't resist the pistachio ice cream which was magnificent - far better than much of the ice cream I've eaten in Italy and definitely in LAB G league. South London really does have a strong line up of frozen nut-based desserts at the moment, now happily joined by some great pizza - the perfect accompaniments to the eponymous carrot.

DeLorme Publishing Co., the mapping company in Yarmouth famous for its Maine Atlas and Gazetteer, finds itself in hot water with the International Trade Commission over a patent infringement case and could be facing as much as $7 million in penalties.
The patent issue involves DeLorme's series of hand-held, satellite-enabled communication devices, marketed under the brand name inReach. The devices can send text messages from anywhere in the world regardless of cellphone reception. BriarTek, a company in Virginia, alleges that DeLorme's inReach products infringe on its patent for a similar satellite-enabled product.
DeLorme's inReach devices, which it sells to private individuals and to the U.S. government, are the cornerstone of the company's expansion beyond its traditional paper and digital mapping products. This patent infringement case, as it stands, could derail the company's plans and prevent it from selling the products. The company employs roughly 75 people in Yarmouth.
The dispute over allegations of patent infringement have been unfolding since 2012. An administrative law judge with the International Trade Commission on March 7 issued a brief saying DeLorme's importing of components used in its inReach 1.5 devices does not "directly infringe" on BriarTek's patent, but the sale of certain products that include those components "induces (patent) infringement," and violates a consent agreement around the manufacture of those products that DeLorme signed in April 2013.
The judge, Dee Lord, also found that the sale of another DeLorme product, the inReach SE device, does not induce infringement on the patent. Lord recommended DeLorme pay a civil penalty of $637,500, based on a daily penalty of $12,500 for each of the 51 days DeLorme was in violation of the consent agreement.
However, the commission on April 23 reversed part of Lord's decision, expanding DeLorme's exposure to civil penalties. It determined that DeLorme's inReach SE devices do, in fact, induce infringement of the patent.
That decision could increase the civil penalty – owed to the U.S. government, not BriarTek – to several million dollars. The commission is asking DeLorme to supply information by April 30 on the number and value of inReach devices it has sold since April 2013 to determine the penalty.
John Fuisz, BriarTek's attorney, estimates that the number of violation days will increase to 92, amounting to $1.1 million DeLorme faces in penalties. It could face more if the commission agrees with Fuisz's request to increase the daily penalty to $75,000, which would equal a penalty of $6.9 million.
The commission found that DeLorme acted in "bad faith" when it violated the consent order.
Peter Brann, DeLorme's attorney from Brann & Isaacson in Lewiston, was out of the country on Tuesday and unavailable for comment. He had previously told the Portland Press Herald that Lord's decision that a product does not directly infringe on a patent, but could induce infringement, "absurd on its face."
DeLorme, in a statement released Tuesday by another of its attorneys, Stacy Stitham of Brann & Isaacson, said the company was "deeply disappointed" and "strongly disagrees" with the commission's decision. It said the company would pursue an appeal in federal circuit court. A message left with DeLorme's vice president of marketing, Kim Stiver, was not returned on Tuesday afternoon.
BriarTek first filed its complaint with the International Trade Commission, which has jurisdiction over international trade matters, in August 2012 when DeLorme was manufacturing its inReach products overseas and importing them to the United States.
BriarTek accused DeLorme of infringing on a U.S. patent it received in 2011 for a "global biodirectional locator beacon and emergency communications system," essentially an emergency monitoring system with the ability to communicate with a satellite system.
The trade commission agreed to investigate, but dropped the investigation in April 2013 after DeLorme began manufacturing its inReach products in Yarmouth and signed a consent agreement, promising not to "import into the United States, sell for importation into the United States, or sell or offer for sale within the United States after importation any two-way global satellite communication devices, system, and components" that infringe on BriarTek's patent. The consent agreement was not an admission of guilt, said DeLorme attorneys.
But days after the commission dropped the investigation, BriarTek filed another complaint alleging that the third-party resale of DeLorme's inReach products, the importation of foreign-manufactured components and other actions violated the consent agreement. The commission has agreed with BriarTek's claims.
"DeLorme honored the letter and spirit of that (consent) agreement by manufacturing its inReach devices in the United States from that date forward, although DeLorme has never believed that it infringes any claim of the patent," according to DeLorme. "Nonetheless, the Commission now apparently has concluded that DeLorme was not permitted under the Consent Order to use any imported parts in the domestic manufacture of its devices, despite the fact that none of those parts infringes the patent."
DeLorme claims the commission has overstepped its authority and "essentially claimed jurisdiction over any domestically-manufactured product that is not itself produced entirely from domestically-made parts."
"Such a position is inconsistent with the Commission's statutory mandate to protect against foreign unfair trade practices, and incorporates an unprecedented 'Made in USA' standard into ITC law," the DeLorme statement says.
"This is an aggressive expansion of Commission authority into the domain of the federal district courts, which have exclusive jurisdiction to decide domestic patent infringement claims. In so doing, the Commission is threatening serious damage to a US-based manufacturer of high-tech products, and jeopardizing good-paying jobs in Maine. This result runs counter to the goal of an agency created to protect domestic industry from unfair trade practices by foreign competitors."
Fuisz disagreed, claiming the commission's decision is consistent with the law.
"As the (ruling) noted, DeLorme relied on opinion of counsel that is inconsistent with plain language of the Consent Order and with legal precedent," Fuisz said. "DeLorme's continued confusion over the law and over a contract DeLorme voluntarily entered into is perhaps better served by seeking additional education than it is by attacking the Commission. Only DeLorme is surprised by the outcome."
DeLorme filed a complaint in federal court in May 2013 seeking a judgment that it has not infringed on BriarTek's patent and, further, that BriarTek's patent is invalid. In the complaint, DeLorme's lawyers claim BriarTek's own satellite emergency communications device, marketed as CerberLink, can't compete with DeLorme's inReach devices, and that BriarTek is using the legal wrangling as "an improper attempt to shut down its lower-priced competition." That case is still pending.
Correction: This story was updated at 12:56 p.m. on Wednesday, April 30 to clarify the timeframe of the allegations.

Thank goodness it's Thursday, friends! I'm ready for the weekend! How about you? I'm also so excited that it's March and that I am starting the 60 for 31 Challenge today! If you're just joining us, then you may be wondering… "What's the 60 for 31 Challenge?"
The 60 for 31 Challenge:
60 minutes of exercise. 31 Days.
That's right—March is going to be a butt-kicker. Literally. But if you have lost your January motivation and need to kick it back into high gear, maybe this challenge is for you. You get two cheat days for the month, so if you have something come up, you can always use one of your cheat days. And if you want, you can do your own modified version. Maybe you normally work out once a week. You might try to work out every week day in March. Or maybe you try to work out 5 or 6 days every week. Create your own version of the challenge that will work for you but still challenge you!
Since today was March 1, it was also the first day of the challenge. I got my workout in with an hour of Zumba tonight. It was a great class with a dedicated group of ladies! I actually put the toughest song I know on the playlist both tonight and Tuesday night. I was trying to kick my own booty. :) I have so much fun with this class every Thursday!
I've got a new breakfast favorite… corn flakes with pumpkin seeds mixed in! I know… it sounds weird. But this breakfast will really stay with you all morning long.
Thursday dinners are a challenge for me.
Lots of times I want to get take-out because I am tired after teaching class. But tonight I made myself cook a quick dinner. Thanks to the convenience of steam-in-the-bag brown rice, this came together pretty quickly and was much better for me than getting take-out.
On the plate: lemon pepper chicken, whole grain brown rice, and sauteed baby portabella mushrooms. The mushrooms were the best part! Nom!
Okay friends, it's time for me to sign off for the evening. I hope you have a wonderful weekend! I am looking forward to a weekend of dancing, running, and even getting my hair did.

getting older.
feeling nostalgic.
music obsessive.
self-confessed fan of 'pop'.
despite a cringe-inducing line-up, I could not deny the lure of The Big Reunion when it first hit our screens last year. part of it was pure curiosity, curating a bunch of bands that had been prevalent in my adolescent years and throwing the willing ex-members back together for a 'Big Reunion' certainly caught my attention.
but admittedly, it was the way in which it was done that provoked genuine interest.
sure, on some level it was probably a money-driven attempt to sell the very idea to arenas and maximising merchandising potential whilst back on the road, but it presented itself with more dignity than that on screen. early episodes focussing on the bands involved were rather full-on, warts and all popumentaries that really delved deep into the psyches of those performers that were only ever seen beaming at us from CD:UK and from the pages of Smash Hits.
sex, drugs and promo-pushing meltdowns were all part and parcel of the chart-seeking dream turned sour, forget Motley Crüe or Led Zep's well documented antics, this was the untold story of excess for the SMTV generation.
and as with any cash-cow winning formula, it would be ridiculous to think that the idea could be left alone, but as the format returns to our tellies and the recently reformed line-up was announced, I must admit to feeling disheartened by the news.
they didn't have quite the same 'big league' experience all round as 2013's show had, the formation of a 'supergroup' featuring a reality tv winner and a faded soap star and the dubious inclusion of the forgotten 'Girl Thing' suggested that the bottom of the barrel was truly being scraped on only the second go around...
but to pay them their dues, one episode in and I'm responding well to it, especially since it's split-focus was on Girl Thing so early on, clearly addressing the obvious issue of reuniting a a band that barely anyone remembers, let alone cares about... indeed, what we got was a blow-by-blow account of the group destined to be 'the next Spice Girls', how millions of pounds was invested in their forthcoming chart dominance and how cruelly they were shrugged aside when the self-fulfilling prophecy remained unfulfilled after just two single releases, no rewritten pop history was needed, theirs is the cautionary tale of exploitation and how even debuting at number 8 in the singles charts is not good enough to seal your fate in the future of scrupulous record companies.
and tongue firmly in cheek, Andi Peter's ludicrous narration proved another winning move in the opening salvo of a series that perhaps knew that, just like Girl Thing, it could not take it's success for granted with its current crop of returned pop refugees.
i'm still unsure of where Girl Thing hope to move on from here once their story has been told and old wounds touched upon and possibly healed, but coming in from a sceptical standpoint that ITV2 may not have been able to deliver upon their promises a second time around, I currently remain suitably hooked on their career-rejuvenating arena filler.

Hyperglycemia and DKA
Question from Piittston, Pennsylvania, USA:
My son has been on the pump for about one year now. He spent the night at his friend's the other night and while he was sleeping, his injection site pulled out. He woke up because he did not feel well. He noticed his site had come loose. We picked him up. He had large ketones and was vomiting. After he couldn't even keep down the water I was having him drink, I took him to the Emergency Room (ER). Although we got his sugar down at home from 478 to 115 mg/dl [26.5 to 6.4 mmol/L], he still had large ketones. When we got to the hospital, his sugar was back up to 178 mg/dl [9.8 mmol/L]. They hooked him up to an i.v. Even after four full bags of i.v. fluid, his ketones were still large. They checked his blood levels especially for potassium which they said was good, but he had acidity in his blood and he had 4+ glucose also. First, what does all that mean? Upon getting him there, his blood pressure was also high 148/98 and his heart rate was 107. The hospital contacted my family doctor who had them call an endocrinologist who was in our area. I wanted them to call his pediatric endocrinologist, but they didn't. He was released with large ketones even after all the fluid and they told us if he vomited again at home bring him back to be admitted. How come it took over nine hours in the ER and his ketones still weren't going down? Wasn't it dangerous to release him? He also had a severe pain in his head but they didn't seem to concerned? Was that from the DKA?
This sounds like classical pump DKA from catheter problems/falling out/occlusion. But, the treatment questions you ask raise the most important question which is why you did not have a plan of action for such events since they are basic training for pumpers. Everyone who pumps insulin should be aware that such problems occur and they need to know how to respond. I would strongly suggest that you review this material with your diabetes team so future problems may be prevented.
Also, why did you not call the diabetes team yourself, if the ER doctors did not do so on your behalf?
Without knowing details of these events, it sounds like there was a many hour deficit of insulin and thus the long time to recognize the metabolic emergency and make insulin and fluid corrections made for this episode of DKA. Vomiting is the one event that cannot be treated so easily at home but usually does not happen in DKA until many hours have passed with missed opportunities to deliver insulin via syringe at one to two hour intervals. All DKA treatment should focus on replacing lost fluids and salts, not just on insulin. When high sugars and ketones are present for such a long time, the body falls behind in both salt and water. Thus the dehydration. If acidosis then occurs, this is worsened.
Anytime there are such high values on a pump, assume that the catheter is blocked, kinked or dislodged. Therefore, insulin must be given by syringe and not via the pump at that moment. It is also possible that there is a pump mechanical or electrical malfunction as well, but this is less common than catheter problems. Giving insulin via syringe guarantees that the insulin is in the body. With fast acting analogs, this may need to be repeated at one to two hour intervals until the blood glucose levels start to move downward. High sugars over 250mg/dl [13/9 mmol/L] and moderate to large ketones suggest the need for a large bolus injection in the neighborhood of 20% of the total day's insulin requirements when not ill. Day to day algorithms and sliding scales are insufficient under such DKA circumstances. With high sugars and only small ketones, then the booster sick day dose is an extra 10% of the usual day's insulin requirements (basal and bolus added together). This is no different from when using injection therapy or pump therapy. If not responding, headachy, confused, dehydrated or persistent vomiting occurs, then we want a call within a few hours.
Ketones almost always take much longer to clear than glucose levels. This occurs because, during the treatment of DKA when it is successful, the total amount of ketones is responding, but the amount that is easily measurable at home or in most hospital laboratories is only part of this total ketone load. The measurable part rises because the biggest ketone portion, called beta hydroxybutyric acid, isn't usually being measured directly. Often several hours or even a day or so must pass for all the ketones to clear the system even after insulin is restored and fluid and electrolyte management correct. It's all very complicated and potentially very dangerous. Unfortunately, many people die during episodes of DKA because of delayed treatment or over-reliance on insulin and under-appreciation of the water and salt imbalances involved. If brain swelling occurs, this is particularly dangerous (called cerebral edema).
Your last question about when someone should be discharged from hospital or emergency room is also impossible to answer since it depends upon the cause of the problem in the first place, how that patient responded to treatment and how well they can then manage at home after the crisis is over.
Bottom line: learn from what happened so that it can be prevented and set up a better system for contacting your diabetes team under such emergency situations.

Sorry, I haven't blogged lately. I keep waiting to have some photos to post, but I have officially given up having photos for this post. Hopefully, I will have some photos of the nursery soon. I keep waiting to "finish it" before taking photos. I am starting to realize that it will never been finished. The furniture is put together, the curtains are up, the room is organized, and the newborn to 3 months clothes are washed. I just don't have everything up on the walls that I want.
I am taking on the ambitious project of painting 5 canvases of various sizes in acrylic to put on his walls. A set of three will go above his changing table -- this set will be animal themed ( a alligator, a giraffe, and a hippo). I have an idea of how I want the animal themed canvases to look. I have done the free-hand outline of the animals and the background. I have begun painting the alligator one -- I just need to finish the detail work. The other two canvases I am planning to have a transportation theme. They will go on either side of the chest. These two are the least planned but one I plan to have ground transportation and the other air transportation. On all five canvases, the colors will be bold. I hope they turn out, but regardless, I am putting those to the side for now until I get the house ready for visitors and mine and Miles's bags packed. I still haven't packed my bag for the hospital!!!! I don't know what my problem is. I am hoping to do it tonight. I received Miles's diaper bag in the mail yesterday, so I am going to pack it also.
I had my last two-week interval appointment today. Now, I am on to the once-a-week appointments. At today's appointment. Miles's head was down, so chances are that it will be down when the time comes -- so I am happy. His heart was beating 125 beats per minute. I have gained 32 pounds according to the doctor. My waist has increased 11 and 3/4 inches. We are rotating doctor's right now, so each appointment seems very different. It seems hard to get consistant parameter's to record and since each doctor has a different personality it is hard to read/analyze their responses to questions -- some seem interested to answer questions and others seem put out. It makes me appreciate my doctor; however, I know the chances are he won't be there if I go into labor unscheduled.
I hope everyone is doing well.
They grow so fast!

|One Side of These Pedals are Platform, the Other is SPD. Good for a Longer Clipless Ride but Still Gym Shoe Friendly
Now, Buddy's gotten a little more urban. My recent experience with ice biking and daily cycling (even on the least torrid days in North Texas) has combined with my strong objection to carrying extra shoes along on a bike trip, like to simply ride my bike to the gym. A clipless approach works well for a transportation cyclist when the ride is long, traction reasonable, and there are appropriate shoes at the destination. On the other hand, platform pedals add flexibility. The reason I don't like them for longer commutes is platforms are less efficient and don't give me the security of knowing my feet will remain in the right place relative to pedals.
The solution has proven to be ridiculously simple. It's shown in the photo at top. The illustrated pedals have SPD cleat retention on one side of the pedal and are a platform style on the other. Mostly these are available in a silver color, but I scored a pair in "high vis" black that fits the black and white and red themes that run throughout Buddy's frame and components. While I might have to do without the toe clips that are installed on Frankenbike and my wife's bike, these new pedals allow me to ride buddy with shoes I'd otherwise have to carry separately, while retaining the clipless option. For my shorter commute and associated utility tasks, this makes sense. The road bike will retain its single-sided, magnesium SPD pedals. For cross racing, I'll change back to double sided clipless pedals. If I ever got serious, I think I'd look at something like the "eggbeater" system.
I've also made other adaptations associated with the new commute. I've acquired some new bags and plan to put them to a thorough test when the weather gets to being warm instead of somewhere between frigid and pleasant. Still, I fear that I've gotten carried away for commuting purposes and risk getting into serious shopping territory. Still, in the words of the "Mythbusters" cable show, "If it's worth doing, it's worth OVERdoing."

You are such a dorg!
So in the exciting world of teaching, I gave my final tests today and now just have a couple days left of crowd control next week. Yippee! Have I mentioned the farthest we're traveling over the holidays is to Atlanta? I'm so excited to spend Christmas at home. What's kind of funny is that Mr Corgi bought me a Charlie Brown Christmas tree since I've been wanting one, but they are always sold out. I got to open it when it came about a couple weeks ago and we put it on the dining room table. Then both of us said at the same time, "That's a good enough tree for me!" So yes, the one year we're home to enjoy our tree and we're being lazy scrooges. At least I bought Mr Corgi the Hallmark airplane ornament, so now there are two ornaments on our Charlie Brown tree. And it makes me happy every morning, and isn't that what a Christmas tree is supposed to do?

LOL, I saw this card on Jessi's blog and thought it was the cutest thing! (Well, one of the cutest things you've ever made. :P) I loved it then and I love it again now! We had a Charlie Brown Christmas tree for years and I miss it this year. Those little Hallmark ornaments are the best!

Love the dorg! (Hmm, a cat dork would be a corg?, and that's just too close to corgi for comfort. Maybe cork, instead. Mmm, wine.) Charlie Brown Christmas trees are the best!

Sardines are a much underrated fish in my view; people tend not to eat them because they are bony.
You can get most of the bones out if you follow the guidelines below, although not all, you will be left with a small amount of the very small hair like bones, a small price to pay for a very tasty fish that is full of goodness.
Sardines like most fish are best eaten on the day of purchase, if you are lucky enough to live near a fishing port; then straight from the boat and onto the griddle or barbecue is an unbelievable experience.
When I was camping in the south of France a few years ago I did just that, I went to the harbour and bought all kinds of fish and took them straight back to the barbecue I had never tasted such wonderful fish before or since.
OK here we go:-
First off, cut off the head below the gills.
Place the point of your knife into the tail end at the bottom of the stomach and run it all the way to where the head was.
You will find that a lot of the guts will come out with your knife. Now put your thumb down the middle and butterfly it.
Take hold of the back bone right up close to the tail and snap it then pull it out along with most of the bones. Open out the fish and scrape all the dark bits away with your knife, then trim off the edges and cut off the tail.
Turn the fish over and locate the fin that's around the middle of the back and cut it off, wash any scales from the skin and you are ready for cooking.
Barbeque, griddle or fry, I pan fried these for my breakfast, they only need about 4 minutes on a high heat.

Just how rich it really feels to wrap on your own in a soft towel after you leave the shower room. But not all towels are the same. Here we tell you how you can locate the best one for you.
Comprehend exactly what makes a great towel. For beginners, towels for different objectives will certainly benefit from different textiles, either to dry out the meals or to dry your body. Points to remember:
Absorbency is produced by taking full advantage of the area. Cotton towels are best for hands as well as body, while bed linen are best for dishes and flatware.
The Terry towel is one of the most absorptive. It is suitable for drying out hands and also body.
The " collision" towel is a mix of bed linen, cotton and also rayon that works great for drying the recipes. This assists to enhance the price of dissipation.
Damascus linen works to completely dry flatware and glass meals.
The obtained bed linen is extremely absorbing and strong. It is normally immune to microorganisms, as well as will certainly leave no marks on the meals, and takes in 20 percent of its own weight in water.
Take into consideration the cloth content of the towel. High quality towels are generally made from fine lengthy fiber cotton. Some extra pricey are made of Egyptian or Brazilian cotton. While it is more difficult to get, Supima cotton is an excellent selection of cotton grown in the United States.
Do your very own examinations. At the store, try to feel the towels to see if they resemble your requirements.
Look closely. Do fibers attract attention like grass in the yard? That's a great indicator! If not, you will certainly not feel like it will certainly moist up.
Feel them. Are they soft? Are they harsh? If the towel is very soft, and also has a little weight, after that it is of good quality. If the towel is scratchy, feels hard, as well as does not weigh after that it is of extremely poor quality.
Examine the dimension. If you huge or tall, you need to buy bath towels which are larger than a regular towel and will certainly dry out easier with those.
Search for the very best bargain. Make a decision just how much you wish to pay. If you desire the very best top quality, it will cost you much more. On the other hand, extra pricey towels will certainly last much longer, so over time you will be saving cash because you will certainly not need to change them a lot.
Locate some best bath towels that are the same shade as the decor of your washroom. Remember that the shades on the towel end up fading. White towels could constantly be chlorinated to re-bleach.
Always wash new towels prior to utilizing them. There might be chemical deposits made use of in the manufacturing of towels.
While chlorine softens towels, it additionally creates them to wear out rapidly. If you make use of a fabric softener on the towels, it is suggested to leave the kitchen towels out of that cycle, to last longer. Also, linen towels that are washed with fabric softener tend to leave marks on the glasses.

Looking for an inspiring jazz guitar gig in NYC? Me too. Here are 15 top young contemporary jazz guitarists who perform regularly in NYC.
Why these "Young" NYC Jazz Guitarists?
Why did I chose these guys? Two reasons.
1: Money
It won't cost you a stupid amount of money to see these jazz guitarists. Many of these artists perform high profile shows at more expensive venues but you can catch most of these amazing musicians for a $10 – $25 cover at venues such as Smalls and The Bar Next Door.
NYC is amazing in this respect, you can pay $20 and see musicians you listen to on records in an intimate setting. I grew up in New Zealand where you will often pay upwards of $30 and sit in a concert room seating a few hundred people. Jazz was born in the club and it is best heard there.
If you live in NYC (or just moved here like me) then lucky you! If you don't, come visit – you won't regret it!
2. Chops
Every time I see these jazz guitarists perform I walk away incredibly inspired. They all have a unique voice, mega chops and are nice dudes. On my first NYC visit I had money saved up for lessons but I learned SO much from just checking out gigs (and the odd cheeky recording/ transcription) that I didn't bother. One of the best thing you can do for your playing is watch musicians better than you do their thing.
Wait, "Young" Guitarists – some of these guys are in there 30's or 40's?
Yeah, I know. Fair point! By young I mean they have a unique, contemporary approach to jazz guitar.
All right let's check them out, click on a name to visit their respective website. If you think I missed any (I am sure I did), feel free to leave a comment below!
[Update 20 September, 2014. I'm not sure how I overlooked the musical prowess of Oz Noy, Wayne Kratz and Mike Stern – all incredible guitarists!]

By all accounts, Nathan Trapuzzano was the kind of citizen Indianapolis is trying to recruit.
The bright young computer programmer from Pennsylvania, who worked at Ivy Tech Community College, was about to start a family with his new wife.
He was stalked, robbed and killed April 1 while on his morning walk in a neighborhood just east of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
The crime was senseless—like all of the 39 murders this year in Indianapolis as of IBJ's deadline. That puts the city on track for a record number of homicides for a second year in a row.
Even more chilling: Police described the crime as random. Trapuzzano may have been picked out for his headphones.
Neighbors have responded with outrage, and police have mobilized in numbers. It's time for city leaders to drop excuses, drop explanations, drop cries of poverty—and find the money and resources it takes to make our city safer.
For years, Marion County has been losing young families like the Trapuzzanos to the outer suburbs—eroding the tax base and leaving behind budget deficits and rotting infrastructure.
The city under Mayor Greg Ballard has aggressively leveraged its balance sheet to build housing downtown and undertake other initiatives to attract and keep young professionals and their families. It's an admirable effort to boost the tax rolls and make Indianapolis more attractive to corporations.
The Mayor's Office has shown a willingness to get creative on financing—when the money goes to developers and contractors. But on public safety, Ballard and his team insist on a strictly pay-as-we-go approach.
That selective fiscal conservatism—if crime continues to spiral out of control—could leave those fancy new downtown buildings empty.
We've heard the excuses from politicians at all levels—there just isn't enough money for preschool education, better primary schools and child care for working parents, programs that might help set impressionable youngsters on a more productive course, or to hire more police offices who live in the neighborhoods they patrol.
We've heard the explanations—most victims of crime have a record themselves, and those who remain vigilant are less likely to be victimized.
We've heard the spin—statistics that purportedly show overall crime has fallen, while the numbers that can't be finessed tell another story.
We know more police alone won't reduce crime. But we haven't even replaced retiring cops—let alone added police to catch up with a growing population.
Last July, after a 16-year-old boy was gunned down at one of downtown's busiest intersections, IBJ editorialized that the "Delegating mayor must lead on crime."
Ballard visited the Trapuzzano crime scene the day after the killing, and by all signs he is angry and determined to act.
He should find more crime-fighting funding, seek help from state and federal law enforcement, and harness our collective anger by calling on citizens to look out for one another.
Do it for those who may now think twice before heading out for a morning walk. Do it for Nathan Trapuzzano.•

Chocolate Baroque: A King Is Born
Today, on the Second Sunday of Advent, I want to share with you a festive Art Journal page. My project showcases stamps by Chocolate Baroque: the Angel is from A Child Is Born and the Gothic window in the background is from Texture Fragments.
I stamped the Angel with Memento Tuxedo Black, coloured her with Copics and fussy cut her before adhering her to the page with Ranger Multi Medium Matte. I applied Perfect Pearls - Pearl to her dress and Nuvo Glitter Drops White Blizzard on her sash and the borders of her skirt. And if that wasn't enough shine, there's Star Dust Stickles on her wings and Wink of Stella Gold for that subtle shimmer on her hair.
To create the magical night sky, I first primed the page with Faber Castell Gesso. When completely dry, I applied Folk Art Acrylic Paint with a baby wipe, building layers and texture until I'm happy with the result. I started with the lightest colour in the middle of the page, getting darker as I worked my way out. The colours I used are: 481 Aqua, 401 True Blue, 484 Brilliant Ultramarine and 964 Midnight. When completely dry, I stamped the Gothic window from Texture Fragments with Ranger Dye Ink Cool Graphite.
For texture and dimension, I applied Ranger Texture Paste over Tim Holtz Flourish stencil at the edges of the page. When completely dry and firm, I dabbed on some Crystal Stickles for extra shimmer. I finished the background with some white splatters of watered down gesso and let it dry before assembling the page.
The quote is a reference to Luke 2:11. I used two alpha sets for this: Echo Park Allison and Claire Brennan (Waltzing Mouse) Victorian Alphabet, stamped with Ranger Archival Jet Black. I adhered the angel down with Ranger Multi Medium Matte. When dry, I added some soft shading with Faber Castell Pitt Brush Marker Cobalt Blue and this helps the Angel stand out.
