I just wanted to pay my respects to Senator Edward M. Kennedy who died on Thursday. The Senator from the most famous American political family is gone and we will all miss him. The Senator has played an important role in the politics of the senate and has helped to shape our policies in America as well as abroad.
My sympathies go out to the Kennedy family who surly miss him the most. I hope that everyone will agree that he gave his life in service to his country and should be commended for his efforts. I’ll certainly be interested in paying my final respects to this American legend.

As everyone knows, I like to surf the web to see what’s out there. Today I was online and found something that I thought was very interesting. It was a website called medical-electrodes.com and it gives information about a new product called Corkscrew Electrodes. I watched the video that was on the site and was impressed with the new idea.
I thought that it was a funny thing to call a needle a corkscrew; that is until you see it. It really is in a corkscrew shape and you just twist it in. Once the needle was inserted, it stays put until you take it out. You have to keep in mind that these are Single use medical electrodes and should only be used once. After that, they should be disposed of properly.
I think that anyone who works in a hospital should check out this site. You may be able to make a suggestion and have your doctors’ switch to this type of needle. I am sure that you could earn a few brownie points by doing so. Just tell them about the site called medical-electrodes.com and have them check out the Agram Corkscrew (CS). I am sure they will be as impressed as I was.
