Whole NNE cults and stelliform subcults Lenz reports as existing around belief systems about the metaphysics of the Concavity and annular fusion and B.S.-1950s-B-cartridge-type-radiation-affected fauna and overfertilization and verdant forests with periodic oasises of purportaged desert and whatever east of the former Montpelier VT area of where the annulated Shawshine River feeds the Charles and tints it the exact same tint of blue as the blue on boxes of Hefty SteelSaks and the ideas of ravacious herds of feral domesticated housepets and oversized insects not only taking over the abandoned homes of relocated Americans but actually setting up house and keeping them in model repair and impressive equity, allegedly, and the idea of infants the size of prehistoric beasts roaming the overfertilized east Concavity quadrants, leaving enormous scat-piles and keening for the abortive parents who’d left or lost them in the general geopolitical shuffle of mass migration and really fast packing, or, as some of your more Limbaugh-era-type cultists sharingly believe, originating from abortions hastily disposed of in barrels in ditches that got breached and mixed ghastly contents with other barrels that reanimated the abortive feti and brought them to a kind of repelsive oversized B-cartridge life thundering around due north of where yrstruly and Green strolled through the urban grid.

Clinicians set a target minute ventilation, and the ventilator determines an optimal VT and rate combination that result in the least work of breathing, based on the “minimum work of breathing” concept described by Otis et al.53 Theoretically, when the patient’s compliance is reduced (ie, has ALI), a smaller VT and faster rate are chosen, whereas in patients with obstructive lung disease, a larger VT and slower rate are chosen to minimize air trapping. There is concern that large VTs and high pressure may also increase the risk of developing ALI or ARDS in patients without lung disease.

Cycle asynchrony is present when the ventilator inspiratory (Ti-vent) and expiratory times are different from that of the patient’s neural inspiratory (Ti-pt) and expiratory times. Double cycling in VCV suggests that the patient is still inspiring when the ventilator is turned off (Ti-pt>Ti-vent). Lengthening inspiratory time by adding an inspiratory pause or reducing flow may help, as might increasing VT. An end-inspiratory spike in the pressure-time waveform suggests that the patient is trying to exhale, while the ventilator is still pushing (Ti-pt < Ti-vent); increasing the set flow or reducing VT might alleviate this. The PCV may be helpful in this situation, but the inspiratory time is still constant and may not be comfortable. A trial of high-level PS might be attempted, although some new ventilators allow PCV to be flow cycled and to function like PS with a backup rate.

Santiago de Cuba has the Antonio Maceo Airport (MUCU/SCU), which was home to the Cuban Revolutionary Armed Forces. Shown in the photo is a Cuban Mig 21 inside the VT-45 hanger. Santiago de Cuba had 12 of these Russian built fighters situated at the San Antonio de los Baños Airfield in Cuba. Now the airport is essentially a turboprop hub, however it can also accommodate mid-sized jet aircraft. There are about twenty international flights each week, but most arrivals are by domestic airlines. The eastern location and the international status of MUCU/SCU has spurred the interest of foreign airlines as a promising future destination. All in all, Cuba now has ten international airports, capable of serving long-range commercial flights.

He won’t lock the bedroom door. He has to be ‘spontaneous.’ One Sunday morning, while he was being ‘spontaneous,’ I heard giggling. Our kids, ages four and three, had been hiding under the bed, waiting to surprise us when we woke up. ‘What was all the bouncing?’ they wanted to know.” —Jillian, Randolph, VT
Merry Bloch Jones (I Love Him, But . . .)
He’s terribly indecisive, can’t make his mind up on anything. Not on what movie to go to. Not on which gas station to stop at. Certainly not on which tie to wear. If you think he’s finally made his mind up, close your eyes, count to three, and you’ll hear him say, ‘But on the other hand…’” —Mary Jane, White River Junction, VT

Of course, winning wars is not as easy as the myths would have us believe; besides that, we seem to be in an age of asymmetrical warfare where conventional victory and surrender do not apply. It’s hard to imagine how something as vague as the “war on terror” can be won in any way that resembles winning WWII. When the nation-states of Germany and Japan surrendered, America celebrated V-E and V-J Day. But it’s hard to imagine a V-T Day. And even if you are able to arrange a “good old-fashioned war” between two nation-states wearing uniforms and all, in an age where both sides are likely to have nuclear arsenals, it’s hard to imagine anyone “winning.” If we are committed to generating social unity through the civic religion of war sacrifice, we may very well be on the road to global annihilation.
