1. A method comprising:
coupling two end points using a multimode signaling path to carry inputoutput signals;
decoupling power signals from said inputoutput signals in each end point; and
providing at least one pluggable connection for the inputoutput signals.
2. The method of claim 1 where the multimode signaling path comprises a multimode board and including providing one of said end points with an upside down die and a connector coupled to said end point and said multimode board.
3. The method of claim 2 including plugging a voltage regulator module into the top of said end point.
4. The method of claim 2 including providing a pluggable connection between said multimode board and said end point.
5. The method of claim 4 including providing a heat sink to sandwich said multimode board between said heat sink and said connector.
6. The method of claim 1 including providing a signal path from a die in one of said end points to a die in the other end point, said signal path being free of discontinuities that create return losses greater than \u221212 decibels over the entire frequency range of interest.
7. The method of claim 1 where the multimode signaling path comprises a multimode cable including providing a socket in one of said end points, a die package mounted on said socket, and a high-speed connector coupled to said cable, and mounting said cable on said package.
8. The method of claim 7 including coupling said socket to a printed circuit board.
9. The method of claim 1 including providing one of said end points with a split socket with a first socket region to receive a die package and a second socket region to receive said cable.
10. The method of claim 9 including providing a coreless package.

All refrences to claim(s) which appear below refer to the numbering after this setence.
1. A double barrel syringe, comprising:
an infusion syringe, including:
a barrel; and
a plunger associated with the barrel;
an aspiration syringe, including:
a barrel positioned adjacent to the barrel of the infusion syringe;
a plunger associated with the barrel of the aspiration syringe; and
handles, including:
a first member pivotally connected to:
a proximal end of the plunger of the infusion syringe; and
the barrel of the aspiration syringe; and
a second member pivotally connected to:
the barrel of the infusion syringe; and
a proximal end of the plunger of the aspiration syringe,
the first and second members of the handles having:
an open orientation in which the first and second members are spaced apart as far as possible from each other, a distal end of the plunger of the infusion syringe is positioned at a proximal end of the barrel of the infusion syringe, and the plunger of the aspiration syringe is completely inserted in the barrel of the aspiration syringe; and
a closed orientation, in which the first and second members are positioned as close as possible to one another, the plunger of the infusion syringe is completely inserted in the barrel of the infusion syringe, and a distal end of the plunger of the aspiration syringe is positioned at a proximal end of the barrel of the aspiration syringe.
2. The double barrel syringe of claim 1, wherein the barrel of the infusion syringe and the barrel of the aspiration syringe include distal ends pointing in substantially the same direction.
3. The double barrel syringe of claim 1, wherein the first and second members of the handles are pivotally connected to one another.
4. The double barrel syringe of claim 3, wherein a distal end of the first member of the handles includes two spaced apart arms joined by a yoke, with a distal end of the second member of the handles extending between the two spaced apart arms.
5. The double barrel syringe of claim 1, wherein:
the first member of the handles includes:
a first piece pivotally connected to the proximal end of the plunger of the infusion syringe; and
a second piece pivotally connected to the barrel of the aspiration syringe; and
the second member of the handles includes:
a first piece pivotally connected to the barrel of the infusion syringe; and
a second piece pivotally connected to the proximal end of the plunger of the aspiration syringe.
6. The double barrel syringe of claim 5, wherein:
the first and second pieces of the first member of the handles are rigidly secured to one another; and
the first and second pieces of the second member of the handles are rigidly secured to one another.
7. Handles for a syringe, comprising:
a first member including:
a proximal portion configured to be grasped by a first part of a user’s hand;
an intermediate portion adjacent to the proximal portion and including two spaced apart elements; and
a distal portion including two spaced apart arms extending from the two spaced apart elements of the intermediate portion, a first arm of the two spaced apart arms being configured to pivotally couple to a plunger of a first syringe, a second arm of the two spaced apart arms being configured to pivotally couple to a barrel of a second syringe;
a second member including:
a proximal portion configured to be grasped by a second part of a user’s hand;
an intermediate portion adjacent to the proximal portion of the second member; and
a distal portion adjacent to the intermediate portion of the second member and including two arms located between the two spaced apart elements of the intermediate portion of the first member or between the two spaced apart arms of the distal portion of the first member, the two arms of the distal portion of the second member including a first arm configured to pivotally couple to a barrel of the first syringe and a second arm configured to pivotally couple to a plunger of the second syringe; and
a hinge pivotally connecting the intermediate portion of the first member and the intermediate portion of the second member to one another.
8. The handles of claim 7, wherein the proximal portions of the first and second members are configured to be moved toward and away from one another.
