Most infants require only enough O2 to maintain SpO2 between 87% to 92%, usually achieved with PaO2 of 40 to 60 mmHg, if pH is normal. Patients with pulmonary hypertension may require a much higher PaO2. B. With tracheal suctioning, it may be necessary to raise the inspired O2 temporarily. This should not be ordered routinely but only when the infant needs it. These orders are good for only 24h. OXYGEN DELIVERY and MEASUREMENT: A. Oxygen blenders allow O2 concentration to be adjusted between 21% and 100%. B. Head Hoods permit non-intubated infants to breathe high concentrations of humidified oxygen. Without a silencer they can be very noisy. C. Nasal Cannulae allow non-intubated infants to breathe high O2 concentrations and to be less encumbered than with a head hood. O2 flows of 0.25-0.5 L/min are usually sufficient to meet oxygen needs.

  • Basquiat and the Bayou,’ the No
    The Times-Picayune October 20, 2014 GAGOSIAN GALLERY ‘Basquiat and the Bayou,’ the No. 1 Prospect.3 art festival stop in New Orleans Doug MacCash Franklin Sirmans, artistic director, Prospect.3 international art festival in New Orleans (Photo by Doug MacCash / NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune) Though he died at age 27 in 1988, artist Jean-Michel Basquiat remains among the brightest of American art stars. For a short time, he was a street artist in New York’s burgeoning 1970s graffiti scene. His tag, SAMO, became a graffiti icon. Not long after, Basquiat climbed to the highest rungs of the rarified Manhattan art world, eventually even collaborating on paintings with pop legend Andy Warhol. His celebrity was almost unparalleled among visual artists. His expressionist paintings now hang in museums across the globe and sell for tens of millions. Reebok recently released a line of athletic shoes decorated with Basquiat images. A suite of nine of Basquiat’s artworks based on Southern themes has been assembled for the first time ever on the Ogden Museum of Southern Art’s fifth floor. The exhibit, “Basquiat and the Bayou,” is certain to be the most popular stop during the Prospect.3 art festival that opens Oct. 25 and continues through Jan. 25, 2015. Franklin Sirmans, the artistic director of Prospect.3, has studied Basquiat for years. During a visit to the Ogden on Saturday (Oct. 18), Sirmans explained the amazing persistence of the artist’s popularity. Basquiat, as part of the New York graffiti and club scene in the 1970s and ‘80s, became a link to the beginnings of hip-hop culture, Sirmans said.

  • The Effects of Hip-Hop and Rap on Young Women in Academia
    The Effects of Hip-Hop and Rap on Young Women in Academia by Sandra C Zichermann A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education Sociology in Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto © Copyright by Sandra C Zichermann 2013 The Effects of Hip-Hop and Rap on Young Women in Academia Sandra C Zichermann Doctor of Education Sociology in Education University of Toronto 2013 Abstract This thesis investigates the rise of the cultures and music of hip-hop and rap in the West and its effects on its female listeners and fans, especially those in academia. The thesis consists of two parts. First I conducted a content analysis of 95 lyrics from the book, Hip-Hop & Rap: Complete Lyrics for 175 Songs (Spence, 2003). The songs I analyzed were performed by male artists whose lyrics repeated misogynist and sexist messages. Second, I conducted a focus group with young female university students who self-identify as fans of hip-hop and/or rap music. In consultation with my former thesis supervisor, I selected women enrolled in interdisciplinary programmes focused on gender and race because they are equipped with an academic understanding of the potential damage or negative effects of anti-female or negative political messaging in popular music. My study suggests that the impact of hip-hop and rap music on young women is both positive and negative, creating an overarching feeling of complexity for some young female listeners who enjoy music that is infused with some lyrical messages they revile.

  • Rap and the Construction of Identity
    Kickin' Some Knowledge: Rap and the Constructionof Identity in the African-AmericanGhetto Ralph H. Saunders Abstract. Rap music and videos providea potentially powerful lens through which to view inner-city neighborhoodsand their residents. Rap also provides ghetto residents witha potentially powerfui means with which to write their histories and fbrge theirown identities. The dominant discourse on African Americans relegates themto the margins ofhistorical action. Rap is explored as a kind of alternativepublic sphere, one in which blacks are reflecting on and challenging thatdiscourse. This paper chal- lenges the wholesale categorization ofcertain populations or groupsas "other," and reaffirms the power of individualsand collectivities to make their own histories. INT1tODUCflON To outsiders, "ghettos" manifest themselvesin menace, as dangerous and depressing locales to be shunned. Forresidents, however, the ghetto isthe unavoidable everyday. In the UnitedStates, the dominant discourse' reserves the tag "ghetto" for lower-income, inner-cityneighborhoods ixthabited predominantly by AfricanAmericans.
