Peripherally inserted central catheter is a form of IV access. The catheter is inserted in a vein usually located in the arm with the catheter tip terminating in a large vein close to the heart. While in the hospital, nurses will care for the PICC line. They will assess the insertion site, inspect the dressing, check for leakage, perform flushing maintenance and act according to the outcomes. The PICC can be a long term IV access device and patients may be discharged home with the PICC in place to continue with treatments instead of requiring additional hospitalization. Therefore, the patient must be informed of general PICC line care so he is comfortable with it and is aware of circumstances that require alerting healthcare professionals of possible complication.

My wife has Peripheral Arterial Disease or PADs disease for the past 13 years. Last month her 7th stint was placed in her artery, this one going to her intestines. That stint was reblocked in a matter of weeks even on blood thinners & other meds... Her vascular doctor decided she needed artety bypass surgery. So last Monday morning we went to the University Of Wisconsin Medical Center for the surgery. It was a three hour drive from our little town of Dixon, Illinois to the University Of Wisconsin Med Center. A artery was harvested out of her left leg and reattached to the arterys in the back of her stomach. She went into the OR at 730am & was out about 4pm. She is doing very well now after a week in the hospital & we are home now. Thank you God.
Thanks to the team of doctors and nurses, medical & non-medical personal at the University Of Wisconsin. You all did a great job on my wife.
It's been a while now since I felt I had any sense of taking a 'good' photograph. Everyone I know chimes on and on about how good they are, but they just don't gel with me. So, it was nice to find one that I thought was acceptable.
This one reminds me of those old black-and-white era visions of a Utopian future. Something about those dark tones...
'Took this on the way back from my most recent 'Ooh Er' day trip. Slight difference in tone here!
When i peripherally saw some commotion on the window feeder
i didn't think too much of it - the Steller's Jays that are now around since fall routinely scare and disrupt the other birds with their raucous mannerisms
I did note that nothing returning to feed was a bit strange.
A few minutes later i decided to shake the tube feeders to check that the seeds continue to flow ok.
As i leaned out an unusual bird (that i hadn't noticed)
flew off...and gaining height went quite high up into a nearby Douglas Fir.
I practice my "birds in flight " to continually improve my ID skills -- but this had me a bit stumped.
I have had robins coming in to get cotoneaster and hawthorne berries i put on the feeding station - so i thought perhaps i was seeing a Hermit Thrush.
My view was as it flew away - so only a view from behind as it went almost vertically looking to perch at top of its altitude(by flight characteristics) .
So with an inconclusive verdict i went to my truck for my binoculars.
From the window i couldn't get a view of where i thought it had landed....obscured by branches.
I then went to the other side of the house and from the driveway scoured the area of tree i thought was good for landing spot.
OOooo
This is what i found....
I grabbed my scope ,and although other attempts at digiscoping were just frustration - i somehow managed - just by hand & somehow fluked out and got this vid doc. thru the scope with my phone.
Afterward spent some nice time enjoying scope views.
I enjoy the mock eyes at back of head

Taken January 29th 2018
PS
i have heard the birds going off at different times this fall/winter but always figured it was a Barred Owl
PS
i have also had an Immature Northern Shrike scatter the feeder birds and then sit perched for over a half hour.
That time (years ago now) i was obviously more observant then with the NOPO
I will have to "look smaller" when that happens in the future.
Also
When i hear scolding & alarms around neighbourhood
i am usually just thinking Barred Owl or Hawk....
CERVICAL SPINE ANATOMY CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM lawyer 3D animations
The nervous system can be divided into the central nervous system (brain and spinal nerves) and the peripheral nervous system (somatic, autonomic and enteric components). The somatic peripheral nerves carry messages between the spinal cord and body. The sensory nerves carry messages towards the brain, such as information about pain, pressure, temperature and joint position. The motor nerves carry impulses to the muscles to control muscle contraction/relaxation.
The spinal nerves within the vertebral canal form the spinal cord. The spinal cord starts at the base of the brain, and passes down the vertebral canal.
The nerves leave the spinal cord through gaps between the vertebrae (intervertebral foramina), and travel to all parts of the trunk and limbs. lawyer 3D animations.
The nerves that leave the neck, or cervical spine, go to the arms.
The nerves that leave the chest, or thoracic spine, go to the chest and belly. lawyer 3D animations.
The nerves that leave the lower back, or lumbar spine, go to the pelvis and legs.
The vertebrae provide protection and support for the spinal cord, in the same way that the skull provides protection and support for the brain. lawyer 3D animations.
If a nerve is irritated by chemical inflammation or physical compression or traction, it may not transmit its messages correctly, or it may spontaneously generate new messages. An irritated motor nerve may not transmit its impulses to its muscle, leading to weakness or paralysis of that muscle. An irritated sensory nerve may not transmit its sensations, leading to a sensation of numbness. The irritated sensory nerve may generate its own impulses to the brain, which can be perceived as paresthesia (pins and needles) or pain in the region of the body that normally transmits along that nerve.

St Helen, Bishopsgate, London
Here we are amidst the Dubai-ification of Bishopsgate, and yet the west frontage of St Helen is rather pleasing in its little courtyard beneath the Aviva building. It is a different story to south and east, however, for although the Gherkin has created a focus for St Mary Axe, the peripherals of the space are messy and ill-considered, and beside St Helen the car park entrance has all the charm of the neglected bit of a provincial shopping centre. However, all this will go for the construction of the City's tallest tower, the Undershaft building, and the two lower storeys being left open will give St Helen and its near neighbour St Andrew Undershaft the chance to talk to each other for the first time in centuries.
Uniquely in the City, St Helen has a double nave, and this is because it was the church of a Benedictine nunnery, established here in the early 13th Century. There was already a parish church on the site, and a new nave for the sisters was built to the north of the parish nave. There was a major restoration in the early 17th Century which gave the exterior much of its current character, and the church was far enough north to survive the Great Fire. The Blitz also did little damage here, and St Helen might have continued being a pleasant if rather sleepy medieval survival among the office towers were it not for two significant events.
The first was the Baltic Exchange bombing on the night of 10th April 1992. A one tonne semtex and fertiliser bomb was exploded by the IRA immediately to the south-east of the church, its intention to cause as much damage to property as possible. In this it succeeded, for the £800 million repair bill to the City was almost twice as much as the entire repair bill for all the other damage caused by IRA bombs in the British Isles since the current spate of Troubles began in 1969. The south wall of the church was demolished, the interior blown out by blast damage. Repairs were already underway when the second event to shape the current church occured. On the morning of 24th April 1993, a Saturday, the IRA exploded another one tonne bomb, this time of ammonium nitrate and fuel oil, on Bishopsgate, to the north-west of the church. Thus, the little church found itself exactly between the two largest terrorist bombs ever exploded on the British mainland. This time the west front was demolished, and blast damage took out all the windows and furnishings again.
The building's rebirth was very much a reflection of the character of its congregation. Unusually for the City, St Helen is very much in the staunch evangelical protestant tradition. The pre-1992 church had been full of the clutter of those resacramentalising Victorians, but controversially the architect Quinlan Terry was commissioned to design an interior more fitting for the style of worship at St Helen. Anti-modernist, anti-gothicist, anti-conservationist, Terry is an architect so far out of kilter with the mainstream of British design that it sometimes seems as if he is working in an entirely different discipline, running in parallel with the rest of the architectural world. Previously, his most significant church design was for Brentwood Catholic Cathedral, which has been described as having all the style, grace and charm of a shopping centre food court. It was never going to end happily, either for the conservation bodies or the City traditionalists.
Terry's reinvented St Helen is a preaching box for protestant worship. Memorials have been relegated to the south transept, and the rood screen moved across it to separate it from the body of the church. The two naves have been united in a cool, square, white space, the focus of the church turned to face the north wall. It is as if the Oxford Movement had never happened. And yet it is all done well, with that infuriating veneer of seemliness that so much of Terry's work conveys.
Well, you wouldn't want all medieval churches to be like this, but churches are constantly changing to suit the style of worship of the day, and so it seems fitting that St Helen should have been reinvented this way. Much of the outcry at the time must have been because the Bishopsgate bomb vaporised St Ethelburga, St Helen's near neighbour, a small surviving medieval church, and it was felt rather willful that another medieval church was being gutted by those who might have been thought responsible for saving it. Me, I'm not so sure. Church communities should have their head to design their churches to suit their current worship, otherwise we would not have the extraordinary accretion of historical artefacts that the great majority of England's 16,000-odd medieval churches now contain. St Helen is a good example of what can be done by people with passion and enthusiasm in the face of apocalyptic destruction. This was true after 1945, and it was true after 1993. Mind you, I'm not sure we'd have the confidence to do the same thing now.

CERVICAL SPINE ANATOMY NERVOUS SYSTEMS DERMATOMES physiotherapy graphics
Sensation from the skin is relayed along limb and trunk peripheral nerves to the spinal nerves that enter the spinal cord. The spinal cord then relays the sensation message to the brain and our awareness. physiotherapy graphics.
Each spinal nerve relays sensation messages from a particular area of skin. This skin area is called a dermatome, and each dermatome is named after the spinal nerve that carries its message. physiotherapy graphics.
For instance the C5 dermatome on the shoulder uses the C5 spinal nerve near the base of the neck to relay its message to the brain.
There are seven spinal nerve pairs in the neck, called C2 to C8, which supply dermatomes on the head, neck and arms. This is useful to know as the sensation of pain in a dermatome may be due to irritation to the corresponding spinal nerve that is causing it to send a misleading message to the brain. For instance, compression of the C5 spinal nerve by a herniated disc or degenerative osteophyte in the neck can trigger in the brain the sensation of pain or numbness over the C5 dermatome at the shoulder.

A month or two ago, I got so tired of the neuropathy pain in my feet that I Googled "best boots for peripheral neuropathy pain". I checked maybe a dozen or so lists, on different websites, and one of the brands that was on every list was "Propét". I ordered these from shoes.com and got them on sale (40% off). These are
the "Cliff Walkers" and they were amazing straight out of the box. No pain. At all. Even when I put them on at 6 AM and don't take them off till well past 8 PM. Within the first week, I ordered a second pair.
I still have Dr. Martens boots and I still wear them. But so far, these have been the absolutely most comfortable boots I've worn since neuropathy became problematic for me.

The crystalline inclusions that may be found within the giant cells in sarcoidosis and other granulomatous disorders consist mainly of calcium oxalate and well as some calcium cargbonate. The peripheral rim of calcification is indicative of very early Schaumann body formation. In many cases the crystals appear to serve as a nidus around which Schaumann bodies are formed. H&E stain. These crystals should not be confused with aspirated foreign bodies.

Difficult shots due to the weather worsening again, so everything got wet, the peripheral lineside shrubbery and HGVs passing along the road at moderately high speed and occasionally 'glancing through' the large lake of water which had formed in the lay-by just behind the camera; nice! At top another class 66 GBRf coal train, heading east for Drax, this time its 66713, 'Forest City' on the 6E94 Hunterston(GBRf) to Drax A.E.S. and yet another 2000tonnes of foreign coal which this time set off at 11:30pm the previous day, and has travelled all the way down here to arrive 12 hours later, passing the thousands of tonnes of stored coal at Kellingley, as it made its way along to the power station at the end of the short stub of line branching off the main line just east of Eggborough at Gowdall; the line once continuing over the River Aire before curving around to reach the Merry-Go-Round line at the power station. The line then continued to the north-west to join the main line through Joan Croft Junction from Doncaster, and so on into Selby. Another line also continued to the north-east from the power station to pass over the River Ouse and head east through Howden and then along the north side of the Humber; this line too now long gone and the bridge over the Ouse removed; another part of what used to be our extensive and useful railway infra-structure gone... In the top picture the GBRf is seen just about to pass in front of the Eggborough Power Station which I understood also closed late last year at about the same time as Kellingley so not quite sure what's going on there, it looks to be under 'full steam', literally. And a bit of fun, in the lower picture, showing the advancing GBRf under its own steam as it places itself just in front of the chimney stack at the poser station and squinting at the picture you might believe this is an old steam hauled coal train heading east... maybe not, the stack is too high!!
Just north of the M8 motorway on the east side of Glasgow. stands the suburb of Easterhouse. Built in the 1950s as one of a series of large peripheral estates intended to house people displaced by slum clearance programmes from central Glasgow, by the 1980s it had become a byword for poor planning and social problems. Since then, widespread replacement of housing and the building of community facilities have brought about something of a renaissance in the fortunes of the area. So it comes as rather a surprise to find that in Auchinlea Park, beside the enormous Glasgow Fort shopping centre, and within a few hundred yards of Junction 10 on the M8, stands one of the best-preserved medieval fortified country houses in Scotland - Provan Hall.
I came here on a Saturday (while waiting for Emirates to find my suitcase, delayed in Dubai following the Boeing 777 crash-landing there in August 2016, that disrupted schedules and baggage movement for more than a week), expecting it to be open - but the gates were firmly closed, as, I have since discovered, they are all weekend and every weekend! Peering through the gates, I could see that the grounds are well cared for, but I got the impression that very few people know it is here and that the rather sad looking car park doesn't get a lot of use.
The original house, which is believed to date back to the 1460s, is the building on the right (which is the north side). It is oblong on plan, with what was a circular stair-tower on the north-east angle (it still is circular, it just isn't a stair-tower any longer!). The walls are of good rubble but only reach two storeys, with a garret within the steeply pitched roof, the first floor windows being the dormers seen here. There are three doorways at ground level, all of course facing the courtyard, presumably only one of which is original. An outside fore-stair has been added against the east wall of the courtyard, to replace the turnpike stair that rose in the round tower, and a fourth doorway and lobby were formed at the east end of the first floor. There are shot-holes and a key-hole type arrow slit in the round tower. The basement contains three vaulted chambers, the largest, at the far end, was the original kitchen, with a fireplace, oven and slops drain. The first floor contains two rooms, each with a hooded fireplace.
The curtain walls, joining the buildings to north and south of the cobbled courtyard, both have archways in them, although the far one, in the west wall, is 'modern'. The arched entrance in the east wall (shown) is defended by a shot-hole to its right, and inside, the stumps of steps can be seen in the wall, leading up to a former lookout platform over the gate. This was removed when the fore-stair previously mentioned was built.
I first noticed these on the store shelf last week, though I see from Great Beyond's photostream that the Pepsi version has been around for a while. I took this shot intending to use it as a take off for an entry in my blog, but while I was at it I decided to experiment with the "Peripheral Defocus" in the GF1's scene mode menu.
The bottles are about 12inches from the camera; the doorknob in the background is only another 36 behind them. Shot at F4.0, about 18mm.

In addition, because I worked at a computer store and could get things at cost, I was able to afford that super sweet (for the time) 9600bps modem. Practical Peripherals. This picture was taken probably in 1992 or so.
One of Glasgow's many and vast peripheral housing estates, developed from the 1920s up into the 1960s, inlcuded Penilee - this plan shows the intention for development on what had been a green field site.
Glasgow's housing schemes sadly became a by-word for poverty and deprivation - isolated on the fringes of the city, often with no communal or social infrastructure, they have largely now been demolished or redeveloped (along with Glasgow's equally vast inner-city redevelopments) - but it is easy to forget the sheer scale and volume of housing that was provided by the City Council - and how swiftly it was delivered - it was also the case that people rehoused in suburbs such as Penilee often lived in some of Europe's worst slums and perhaps we shouldn't wholly overlook the social intentions of those who strove to re-house Glaswegians.

Born in Paris in the 7O’s, Bom.k discovered graffiti during his youth, as the southern suburbs he grew in covered themselves with the tags and throw ups of the movement’s first generation. With the help of a few school friends, he quickly initiated himself to the mystery of spray cans on his neighborhood walls until Henry Chalfant and Martha Cooper’s Subway Art and Spraycan Art definitely converted him to the noble art.
After moving to the South of France for a few years, Bom.k returned to live in Paris and created the Da Mental Vaporz in 1999 with Iso and Kan. One monumental wall after the other, the crew continuously kept pushing the esthetical boundaries of graffiti, developing groundbreaking themes for the times, such as madness, life in the peripheral suburbs, social exclusion, fear and hate.
With the new century, the crew opened up to a new generation of painters in the 2000 years, welcoming artists like Jaws, Gris1, Brusk and Dran and more recently Sowat and Blo in its ranks. Together, the 9 members of this iconoclast collective traveled the world, England, Spain, Denmark, Belgium and Australia, to participate to numerous festivals, put together ambitious DIY shows and above all, paint whatever comes in there way.

Born and raised in Paris southern suburbs, self though by necessity, he developed his unique style in the streets and abandoned factories of his youth. Quickly, he set himself free from Graffiti’s traditional rules, to follow his own road and create a unique universe, full of distorted monsters, screaming flesh, hybrid sexual creatures, claustrophobic cities and hellish visions. toOo continue ...... graffuturism.com/2014/01/03/preview-bom-k-solo-exhibition...
A Lava Lizard on Espanola Island.
Lava Lizard
The reptile genus Tropidurus includes several species of ground lizard. It includes seven which are endemic to the Galapagos Islands, where collectively known as lava lizards, although these commonly are placed in the genus Microlophus instead. The distribution of these lizards and their variations in shape, colour and behaviour show the phenomenon of adaptive radiation so typical of the inhabitants of this archipelago. One species occurs on all the central and western islands, which were perhaps connected during periods of lower sea levels, while one species each occurs on six other more peripheral islands. All have most likely evolved from a single ancestral species. Other Tropidurus species are found on the South American mainland, especially in the Amazon Rainforest. Males and females of all Tropidurus species are marked differently. The male is usually much larger than the female, and its body is more brightly coloured and distinctly patterned. The average size of lizards varies greatly from habitat to habitat as does the pattern of body markings. Markings vary considerably, even within an individual species. Like many lizards, they show changes of colour with mood and temperature. Members of the same species occurring in different habitats also show colour differences. Thus animals living mainly on dark lava are darker than ones which live in lighter, sandy environments
The Nazca Booby, Sula granti, is a booby which is found in the eastern Pacific Ocean, namely on the Galápagos Islands, Clipperton Island and the Revillagigedo Islands off Baja California. It was formerly regarded as a subspecies of the Masked Booby but the Nazca Booby is now recognized as a separate species. They differ in regard to ecological and morphological. The Nazca Booby co-occurs with the Masked Booby on Clipperton Island, where they may rarely hybridize. Nazca boobies are known for practicing obligate siblicide. They lay two eggs, several days apart. If both eggs hatch, the elder chick will push its sibling out of the nest area, leaving it to die of thirst or cold. The parent booby will not intervene and the younger chick will inevitably die. It is believed that two eggs are laid so that one remains an insurance in case the other gets destroyed or eaten, or the chick dies soon after hatching. In a study published in PLoS ONE (June 18, 2008), biologists linked the murderous behavior to high levels of testosterone and androgens found in the hatchlings. According to the study, the high hormone levels also cause the surviving chicks to behave like bullies after they grow up. Adults that have failed to breed frequently seek out nestlings in their colony, and during those visits they often bite, preen and even try to copulate with chicks. This behaviour is known as NPAV, which stands for Non Parental Adult Visitor; the causes of this behavior are not fully understood.
Espanola (Suarez Point)
Approximately a 10-12 hour trip from Santa Cruz, Española is the oldest and the southernmost island in the chain. The trip across open waters can be quite rough especially during August and September. Española's remote location helped make it a unique jewel with a large number of endemic creatures. Secluded from the other islands, wildlife on Española adapted to the island's environment and natural resources. The subspecies of Marine iguana from Española are the only ones that change color during breeding season. Normally, marine iguanas are black in color, a camouflage, making it difficult for predators to differentiate between the iguanas and the black lava rocks where they live. On Española adult marine iguanas are brightly colored with a reddish tint except during mating season when their color changes to more of a greenish shade. The Hood Mockingbird is also endemic to the island. These brazen birds have no fear of man and frequently land on visitors heads and shoulders searching for food. The Hood Mockingbird is slightly larger than other mockingbirds found in the Galapagos; its beak is longer and has a more curved shape. The Hood Mockingbird is the only carnivorous one of the species feeding on a variety of insects, turtle hatchlings and sea lion placentas. Wildlife is the highlight of Española and the star of the show is the waved albatross. The island's steep cliffs serve as the perfect runways for these large birds which take off for their ocean feeding grounds near the mainland of Ecuador and Peru abandoning the island between January and March. Known as endemic to the island, Española is the waved albatross's only nesting place. Each April the males return to Española followed shortly thereafter by the females. Mating for life, their ritual begins with the male's annual dance to re-attract his mate. The performance can take up to 5 days consisting of a series of strutting, honking, and beak fencing. Once the pair is reacquainted they produce a single egg and share the responsibility of incubation. The colony remains based on Española until December when the chick is fully grown. By January most of the colony leaves the island to fish along the Humboldt Current. Young albatross do not return to Española until their 4th or 5th year when they return to seek a mate. Geographically Española is a classic example of a shield volcano, created from a single caldera in the center of the island. Over the years as the island has moved further away from the hot spot, the volcano became extinct and erosion began to occur. Española's two visitor sites offer an exceptional island visit. Punta Suarez is one of the highlights of the Galapagos Islands. The variety and quantity of wildlife assures a memorable visit. Visitors find migrant, resident, and endemic wildlife including brightly colored Marine Iguanas, Española Lava Lizards, Hood Mockingbirds, Swallow Tailed Gulls, Blue Footed and Masked Boobies, Galapagos Hawks, a selection of Finch, and the Waved Albatross.Found on the western tip of Española, Punta Suarez offers great wildlife such as sea lions, sea birds and the largest marine iguanas of Galapagos. This is one of the best sites in the Galapagos. The amount of wildlife is overwhelming. Along the beach there are many sea lions and large, colorful lava lizards and marine iguanas. As you follow the trail to the cliff's edge masked boobies can be found nesting among the rock formations. After a short walk down to a beach and back up the other side blue-footed boobies are seen nesting just off the trail. The Galapagos Dove and very friendly Hood Mockingbird are commonly found in this area. The nearby bushes are frequently home to the large-cactus finch, warbler finch, small-ground finch and large-billed flycatcher. Continuing down the trail you come to the only place where waved albatross nest in the islands. Some 12,000 pairs nest on Española each year. The feeling is very dramatic and it seems like a desolate wilderness as the waves crash on the jagged cliffs below and the blowhole shoots water 50-70 feet/15-30 meters into the air. The sky above is full of sea birds including red-billed tropicbirds, American Oystercatchers, swallow-tailed gulls, and Audubon's Shearwaters.
Galapagos Islands
The Galápagos Islands (official name: Archipiélago de Colón; other Spanish names: Islas de Colón or Islas Galápagos) are an archipelago of volcanic islands distributed around the equator in the Pacific Ocean, some 900 km west of Ecuador. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site: wildlife is its most notable feature. Because of the only very recent arrival of man the majority of the wildlife has no fear of humans and will allow visitors to walk right up them, often having to step over Iguanas or Sea Lions.The Galápagos islands and its surrounding waters are part of a province, a national park, and a biological marine reserve. The principal language on the islands is Spanish. The islands have a population of around 40,000, which is a 40-fold expansion in 50 years. The islands are geologically young and famed for their vast number of endemic species, which were studied by Charles Darwin during the voyage of the Beagle. His observations and collections contributed to the inception of Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection.
CERVICAL SPINE ANATOMY CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM malpractice graphics
The nervous system can be divided into the central nervous system (brain and spinal nerves) and the peripheral nervous system (somatic, autonomic and enteric components). The somatic peripheral nerves carry messages between the spinal cord and body. The sensory nerves carry messages towards the brain, such as information about pain, pressure, temperature and joint position. The motor nerves carry impulses to the muscles to control muscle contraction/relaxation. malpractice graphics.
The spinal nerves within the vertebral canal form the spinal cord. The spinal cord starts at the base of the brain, and passes down the vertebral canal.
The nerves leave the spinal cord through gaps between the vertebrae (intervertebral foramina), and travel to all parts of the trunk and limbs. malpractice graphics.
The nerves that leave the neck, or cervical spine, go to the arms.
The nerves that leave the chest, or thoracic spine, go to the chest and belly.
The nerves that leave the lower back, or lumbar spine, go to the pelvis and legs.
The vertebrae provide protection and support for the spinal cord, in the same way that the skull provides protection and support for the brain. malpractice graphics.
If a nerve is irritated by chemical inflammation or physical compression or traction, it may not transmit its messages correctly, or it may spontaneously generate new messages. An irritated motor nerve may not transmit its impulses to its muscle, leading to weakness or paralysis of that muscle. An irritated sensory nerve may not transmit its sensations, leading to a sensation of numbness. The irritated sensory nerve may generate its own impulses to the brain, which can be perceived as paresthesia (pins and needles) or pain in the region of the body that normally transmits along that nerve.
