We got this for my newborn son's nursery. It's so much more cool looking than a clunky grandma-style glider. I wanted a piece of furniture that I would love to have around after our need to rock is finished -- this chair is perfect! We've rocked our way through his first six months -- the rocker rails give a very nice rock and it's even comfortable for my 6 foot 2" husband who weighs, er, over 250... In fact, it's my husband's favorite place to soothe baby. Diminsions are small on this chair -- but that is due to the Eames original design (you can find a certified replica on Design within Reach for over $400 and it's the same specs.) The seat itself is average sized -- the small part is the height of the chair. As long as you know it's not going to be a tall seat, you should be fine. Gorgeous white design -- we get lots of compliments; plus the small size doesn't take up too much room in the nursery, and is even easy to move to other rooms if we occasionally need to. I've even nursed in this chair comfortably!
I don't understand all the reviews of people stating the chair is small. If you're looking for a knock off of the Herman Miller Eames chair, this is EXACTLY it. So, if that's what you're looking for it's not small. I loved the Eames chair so I think it's perfect.
I love this chair-we have a mid-century house but short on cash to decorate it. The chair is very cool and only took like 10 minutes-if- to put it together. We put it in our living room and everyone comments on how cool it is. I would highlly recommend this product to anyone else-if your house or condo is modern and you are into classic modern statement pieces but short on cash-which everyone is these days- go for this chair.
This is a lovely reproduction of the classic Eames rocker - white plastic as per the chairs for years now. Nice wood rocker base, and great seat. It is a small chair, as others observed, BUT it is the right size - the original size. If you want a bigger chair, one higher off the ground, or that supports your back, get one of those. This is a design classic, 1:1 scale with the original. very good price, nice finish quality. one of the four screw holes on the chair was out of line to connect with the base, but worked sufficiently for me. We will use ours as a nursing chair, but we are not very tall people. we love it.
I used to sell the real, designer-made version of this at a furniture store in California. So many people came in and said it was too expensive for them to spend on children's furniture but the thing is this is not child-sized! It's not sized for large adults, but average to small adults (remember the real thing was made in the mid-1900s when there weren't a lot of overweight and obese individuals!). That being said, I've always wanted one but didn't have the budget so I scooped this up in a flash. It's strikingly similar to the one I sold years ago.
Ordered and sent to my single daughter. She seemed very pleased, although she said it looked so small. We knew it was not a large chair. But she was pleased and said it was comfortable. I would purchase again!!
I really like this chair. Great price and quality for an imitation Eames!
It's kinda small but not strangely so. I like it very much!
It's for the baby's nursery and will fit perfectly. I have a small space for a rocking chair and this one is exactly what I needed. It's short and small and it's how it was meant to be by Eames. Very good quality for a knock off.
i bought this as an accent rocking chair in my toddler's room. i would not recommend if you plan on using hourly with an infant, it's a little hard, but with a pillow it's fine for occasional use. stylish knockoff of a more expensive chair. great price!

Parker approved Act No. 159, Section 1 of which reads: "Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Louisiana . . . That there shall be established a state school for the benefit of deaf and blind children of the Negro race whose condition is such that they cannot profitably attend the regular public schools."The Blind division was put into operation in 1922. The Deaf division did not operate as a separate unit, with separate faculty and buildings, until the session, 1938-1939. This deaf institution was known as the Louisiana State School for Deaf [LSSD] Negroes.The responsibility of getting the institution started fell upon Dr. Joseph S. Clark, president of Southern University and A&M Collegefor he was made Superintendent before the brick and mortar stage. The institution was domiciled upon the property of Southern University and Agricultural and Mechanical College. Initial appropriation was too small to erect physical plants and provide operating expenses for both the blind and the deaf. This fact did not discourage Dr. Clark. Building and some equipment were secured for one institution. And so it came about that the Louisiana School for Blind Children opened its doors in October, 1922 with 16 pupils and a faculty of three. Under his superintendence, Miss Naomi Rushing served as the first principal.While these two divisions were established as one school, the constitution, adopted in 1921, which was prior to the opening of either division recognized the divisions as two separate schools and listed the State School for Blind Negroes and the State School for Deaf Negroes as among the institutions under the management of the state board of education.

No. 16: Oklahoma State
By Paul Myerberg // Aug 18, 2011
How do you know when a program has arrived? You can stand away from the action and just look at the won-loss record, but can you pinpoint the actual day a team really arrives? You can with Oklahoma State, in my mind: Oct. 11, 2008 — Cowboys 28, then-No. 3 Missouri 23. It wasn't that people weren't already paying attention, seeing that the Cowboys opened that season 5-0 and were coming off back-to-back bowl berths. It was more a case of people standing up and really taking notice of a program that had, slowly but surely, developed into a B.C.S. contender under Mike Gundy. That was just the beginning: Oklahoma State went on to win nine games that fall, nine more in 2009 and a program-record 11 in 2010. Arrived? Oklahoma State's crashed the party, and there's no reason to think the Cowboys won't hang around for the foreseeable future.

Last year's prediction
Now, as for my concerns with this year's squad. The first, as noted, is the relative inexperience on both sides of the ball. A new face under center — not a huge deal, to be fair — a lack of explosiveness at wide receiver and a nearly brand new offensive line, for starters. There is talent here, but I expect some growing pains. There's a similar story on defense: Lemon's healthy return — hopefully — will boost the linebacker corps, but the secondary is a concern. There is easily enough talent in Stillwater for the Cowboys to return to bowl play, perhaps even maintain the streak of seven-win seasons. I think we'll see a slight decline in 2010, however.
2010 recap
In a nutshell Score. Score in victory, score in defeat. Just score. When Oklahoma State did go down in 2010 — and the Cowboys only lost twice — it went down swinging, scoring points in bunches and forcing the opposition to keep pace. Dictating the tempo: that's just what Dana Holgorsen does — or did, rather, as he took his wares to West Virginia after Oklahoma State's dominant bowl win over Arizona. What a season it was: a star turn by a relatively unknown wide receiver; a star turn — or return — by a once-heralded running back; and a star turn by a former minor league baseball pitcher, the oldest starting quarterback in the country. There should be no animosity surrounding Holgorsen's departure for the hills of West Virginia, not when the new job stands as a promotion. And not when one thinks of all that Holgorsen did for O.S.U. in 2010. This was the best team in program history. How many teams could you have said that about in 2010?
High point Looking back, the most impressive win was a 38-35 victory over Texas A&M on Sept. 30. Not sure if that was truly the high point, however. What about a win over then-No. 21 Baylor on Nov. 6, followed a week later by a win in Austin over the Longhorns?
Low point A shootout loss to rival Oklahoma to end the regular season. With a win, O.S.U. would have taken the Big 12 South, played for the conference title and, if things had gone its way, played for the national title. It's a long way down from the B.C.S. to the Alamo Bowl, though Oklahoma State was still proud of its season.
Tidbit It was a banner year for Oklahoma State, which won 11 games for the first time in school history. The Cowboys also won 10 games in the regular season for the first time; notched six wins in conference play for the second time, joining 2009; went undefeated on the road for the first time since 1945; finished in the final top 10 for the first time since 1984; had three all-Americans; and starred the Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year, Special Teams Player of the Year and Coach of the Year.
Tidbit (Bedlam edition) The Bedlam Rivalry is as one-sided as a deep, bitter, in-state rivalry can be: Oklahoma holds an 81-17-7 edge over the Cowboys. Oklahoma State won back-to-back games from 2001-2 but hasn't won a game since, dropping eight straight — and that's only the program's third-longest such drought in the series, behind 11 straight losses from 1904-16, 16 straight from 1977-92 and 19 straight from 1946-64. Not surprisingly, the more lopsided defeats over the last eight years have come in Norman. The offense disappears on the road, averaging only 13.3 points per game in the last four losses in Norman; the Cowboys have averaged 34.5 points per game over their last four losses in Stillwater.

Mike Gundy (Oklahoma State '90), 47-29 after six seasons with the Cowboys. The program has made clear and steady progress over this span, going from 1-7 in Big 12 play in 2005 to 12-4 over the last two years. The Cowboys had been mired in a string of two consecutive seven-win seasons from 2006-7, when it had showed flashes of brilliance but remained unable to beat the top-rated teams on its schedule. That did not completely change in 2008 – O.S.U. did defeat one top five team – though it was obvious that the Cowboys had made great strides since the 2007 season. Progress continue from 2008-9 before the Cowboys skyrocketed into the national title hunt last fall. Gundy was a four-year starting quarterback for the Cowboys (1986-89), and remains one of the most successful (back-to-back 10-win seasons in 1987-88) and productive quarterback in team history. Gundy entered the coaching ranks immediately after his graduation, taking on the Oklahoma State receivers coach job and skipping the normal graduate assistant apprenticeship that usually accompanies the move into full-time coaching. He remained at his alma mater through 1995, moving up to the quarterbacks coach (1991-93, 1995) and offensive coordinator (1994), before spending one year at Baylor, coaching the quarterbacks and four more at Maryland (receivers from 1997-98, quarterbacks from 1999-2000). He returned to his alma mater in 2001 as Les Miles's offensive coordinator, a position he held through the 2004 season; he was promoted after Miles left for L.S.U. in early 2005. After experiencing a 37-82-2 record as an assistant from 1990-2000, Gundy has gone 67-46 as both an assistant and head coach since coming back to Stillwater in 2001. With his familiarity with the program and his growing success as the head coach, Gundy is a long-term fit with his alma mater.
Tidbit (coaching edition) There are three new coaches on Gundy's staff, all on the offensive side of the ball. The most notable is former Jacksonville Jaguars quarterbacks coach Todd Monken, who replaces Holgorsen. Oklahoma State will ask Monken to run the same offense, which was smart, but Monken is undergoing the same learning curve as a true freshman, in some ways. But he'll bring some of his N.F.L. sensibilities to the job, which makes him an intriguing addition. Monken is no stranger to the college game or to Stillwater, having coached under Les Miles from 2002-4 before joining him at L.S.U. from 2005-6. O.S.U. also added former Air Force running backs coach Jemal Singleton to the same position and Kasey Dunn, formerly of Southern Mississippi, as wide receivers coach.
Players to watch
Remember when we didn't know what Oklahoma State was going to get on offense? Ah, those heady pre-Holgorsen days… I remember them well. Any questions about the health of this offense were put to bed, I don't know, five minutes into 2010. Scoring? The Cowboys did this as well as anyone. Big plays? One, two, five, ten — we ran out of fingers. Passing? From end zone to end zone with ease, behind one of the great stories of the season at both quarterback and wide receiver. Monken's S.A.T.-like cramming for the Air Raid offense yielded another fine performance in the spring game, and while there's a big difference between April and September there's no reason to think Oklahoma State won't continue to score with — and on — anybody.
Senior quarterback Brandon Weeden's just a great story. The former minor league pitcher, who turns 28 in October, brought a big-league arm and big-league production to this offense in his first season as the starter. Weeden showed signs of his potential as a reserve in 2009, especially in a win over Colorado, but really burst forward in a breakout 2010: 4,277 yards and 39 scores while hitting on 66.9 percent of his attempts. He was the Big 12's first-team quarterback, growing more and more comfortable as the year progressed and really only faltering once, in Oklahoma State's loss to Oklahoma. The idea that Weeden is continuing to develop under center after his long hiatus from the game — and his three years as a reserve, from 2007-9 — has many putting his name forward for an even greater 2011, perhaps putting together a Heisman-worthy campaign. I can see that. How good are the quarterbacks in the state of Oklahoma?
What makes the engine run: is it the quarterback who makes the receiver great or vice versa? Regardless of where you stand on this chicken-or-egg argument, you must agree that both Weeden and junior Justin Blackmon are among the best players in the country. The deep well of superlatives for Blackmon runs dry, so just sit back and chew on this: he played in 12 games last fall, missing one game for a violation of team rules; he made at least five receptions in each game; he had at least 105 yards receiving in each game; he caught at least one touchdown in each game. My goodness. When the dust cleared, Blackmon made 111 receptions for 1,782 yards and 20 touchdowns. Like former Texas Tech receiver Michael Crabtree, Blackmon's physical gifts transcend this high-octane offense. There's no better receiver in the country. How good are the wide receivers in the state of Oklahoma?
Blackmon's far from the only weapon at receiver, though he's clearly the most integral piece of the puzzle. He's joined at outside receiver by senior Hubert Anyiam, whose numbers stumbled last fall due to injuries. But he was a key option when healthy in 2009, and Blackmon himself has pointed out Anyiam for a big senior season. Senior Josh Cooper (68 receptions for 736 yards) is back at inside receiver, as are senior Colton Chelf (11 for 200) and junior Tracy Moore (17 for 212). There's no lack of depth, not when you add in options like Isaiah Anderson (12 for 216), Michael Harrison (14 for 135) and Charlie Moore. Depth and the nation's best receiver? Pitch and catch, all day long.
The offensive line might lack the franchise-style left tackle, but this should be Gundy's best group yet. One year after bringing only 12 career starts to the table, Oklahoma State has all five starters back in the fold. Like the offense as a whole, the line exceeded all expectations last fall. The only spot where you find competition is at left tackle, where incumbent starter Nick Martinez is neck-and-neck with JUCO addition Michael Bowie. It's a win-win situation: either Martinez's experience wins out or Bowie's too good to keep off the field. It'll be status quo the rest of the way. Senior Jonathan Rush is at left guard, all-conference candidate Grant Garner at center, two-year starter Lane Taylor at right guard and senior Levy Adcock, one of the Big 12's best, at right tackle.
The defense took a step back statistically in 2010, but there's a very simple excuse for the decline: after finishing 16th nationally in time of possession in 2009, last season's prolific attack had O.S.U. rank 110th in that category. So the defense saw more of the field, which is partly to blame for a drop to 61st nationally in scoring. Was that the only reason? It's the biggest one, in my mind, and the offensive explosion also led opponents to throw more and more in an attempt to catch up. In short: 14th nationally in yards per play allowed in 2009, 28th in 2010.
For the defense to continue its solid stretch of play under third-year coordinator Bill Young, Oklahoma State must replace nine pretty key contributors, four along the line. The interior of the line must be rebuilt following the departures of starters Shane Jarka and Chris Donaldson. This is the biggest question mark facing O.S.U. heading into 2011: there's little experience here, even less proven depth, and the Cowboys will rely on several new faces to plug the gap. One of the two starters will be junior Nigel Nicholas (13 tackles, 2 sacks), a converted end, who has beefed up to about 290 pounds in advance of his assignment. Who joins him? It'll be either redshirt freshman Christian Littlefield, sophomore Anthony Rodgers or JUCO transfer Maurice Hayes, with several incoming freshmen also in the mix. It's not a great situation, though Nicholas could help matters by growing into his new position. Again, this is the biggest trouble spot on the roster.
The answer at end is simple. After splitting time in the starting lineup opposite Ugo Chinasa last fall, seniors Richetti Jones (34 tackles, 4.5 sacks) and Jamie Blatnick (27 tackles, 5.5 sacks) will be Oklahoma State's starting tandem. After years of standing in the background, Jones will have an opportunity to live up to his billing. What you see at end is an altogether different scenario than the one playing out inside: Jones and Blatnick are experienced, proven commodities who should maintain this team's consistent pass rush. Depth comes from JUCO transfer Ryan Robinson, who has already impressed.
The position battles underway in the back seven are also worth following. The biggest hole is found at middle linebacker, where O.S.U. has three candidates to replace all-conference pick Orie Lemon, a multiple-year starter. This looks like a competition that won't be decided until the end of the month, but sophomore Caleb Levy would get the call if the season started today. One thing is certain: it'll be a sophomore in the middle. If not Levy, the Cowboys would call on LeRon Furr or former walk-on Tyler Johnson, another former minor league baseball player. Sophomore Shaun Lewis (58 tackles, 8 for loss, 3 interceptions) is a rising star on the strong side; he'll take on a big leadership role for this new-look front seven. Yet another sophomore, Joe Mitchell, is the favorite to take over on the weak side, but keep an eye on JUCO transfer Alex Elkins. Once again, steady senior James Thomas (49 tackles) will provide depth.
The secondary moves forward without all-conference cornerback Andrew McGee, last year's team leader with five interceptions. It's vital that junior Brodrick Brown (77 tackles, 2 interceptions) build upon his strong debut season in the starting lineup. Not big, Brown toughness belies his build, and he has play-making ability, as illustrated by his absolutely ridiculous sideline-tip-to-interception against Oklahoma. Can he carry the mantle as Oklahoma State's top cornerback? It's a tough world out there in the Big 12, and how Brown steps up will define this pass defense. He's joined on the opposite side by sophomore Justin Gilbert, who was a reserve last fall but made an enormous impact in the return game — 26.8 yards per kickoff return, taking two back for six.
Markelle Martin and Johnny Thomas, both seniors, return at strong and free safety, respectively. No issues here. Both are productive: Martin made 55 tackles and 3 interceptions, Thomas 63 tackles and 3 picks. Martin's a three-year starter with national award aspirations. This is the deepest position group on the roster, though much of this depth is of the younger variety. One leading reserve is sophomore Daytawion Lowe, a former top recruit who missed last season due to injury.
Who replaces Dan Bailey? I'm not going to go into the fact that he was the Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Year and the Lou Groza Award winner — wait, I will for a moment. Bailey was awesome, no doubt about that. But the fact that Nebraska's Alex Henery didn't take home both pieces of hardware was the biggest travesty of last year's award season. Anyway: Bailey leaves a big shoe to fill, as the Cowboys tasted nothing but consistency at kicker over the last few years, especially in 2010. His replacement will be either redshirt freshman Bobby Stonebraker or junior Quinn Sharp, who doubles as one of the Big 12's best punters.
Position battle(s) to watch
Running back Oh, to have such problems. Not to discount what Oklahoma State's going to miss with Kendall Hunter; you don't easily replace 1,548 yards and 17 scores, to put it lightly. But what the Cowboys have coming up the wings are two very impressive sophomores, both of whom flashed lead-back ability in small doses a year ago. One is Joseph Randle, Hunter's primary understudy in 2010. With Hunter getting most of the touches, Randle had to make an impact in other ways: he did so by making 37 receptions for 427 yards, both totals good for fourth on the team. And not to say that Randle didn't make plays on the ground, as his 453 yards rushing was good for second on the team. His primary competition will be Jeremy Smith, who rushed for 261 yards and 7 scores as a freshman. Can the two co-exist? Without a doubt. They would compliment each other well, with Randle the burner and Smith capable of moving the chains. Smith has already illustrated a nose for the end zone, scoring one touchdown in each of Oklahoma State's last four games. But could one carry the load by his lonesome? That's a great question. For all his talents, it's one thing for Randle to be a change-of-pace back, making 81 carries, to taking on a Hunter-like load at 271 carries. A third option might be true freshman Herschel Sims, one of the nation's most coveted running backs recruits from the last recruiting cycle. For now, Sims is running third behind the sophomore duo.
Game(s) to watch
The meaningful games come on the road, minus the regular season finale against Oklahoma. If history is any indication, O.S.U. will bring its offense to Bedlam; then again, if history as our guide, the Sooners will come out on top. There's a nice test at home against Arizona followed by road games against Tulsa, Texas A&M, Texas, Missouri and Texas Tech. Reaching another 10 wins in the regular season is going to be tough.
Season breakdown & prediction
In a nutshell Can the offense keep up its prolific pace? That's the big question for Oklahoma State in 2011, and here's the short answer — yes. Sort of. What you won't see, in my mind, is further growth. The progression that would have taken place had Holgorsen stayed for another year won't occur, as while Monken brings a nice resume — complete with college experience, complete with three years in Stillwater — he is a newcomer to this offense. But the pieces are in place to continue the high level of play: Weeden is superb, as is Blackmon, and the offensive line should be best of the Gundy era. So what's the problem? There aren't any major issues, in my mind. Some may point to Monken as a concern, but he's not, in my opinion; Monken's no Holgorsen, but he's going to do fine with the weapons at his disposal. And the defense won't be great, just good enough to lift O.S.U. to nine wins. The real issue is this schedule, which sends the Cowboys on the road to face Texas A&M, Texas and Missouri, three teams in Oklahoma State's stratosphere, below Oklahoma. In my mind, this fact, not the offense, will be what limits O.S.U. to nine wins in the regular season. Would that be fine with a fan base rapidly growing familiar with the top half of the Big 12? I would hope so; it's rare that a program could replace an offensive mastermind and maintain a nine-win clip, and I think I'm on the conservative end of the spectrum when it comes to projecting Oklahoma State's final record. If 9-3 isn't enough, take pride — and great pleasure — in watching the nation's best quarterback-receiver combination go to work every Saturday. One, or maybe both, will be in the Heisman mix. How good are the football teams in the state of Oklahoma?
Dream season The Cowboys keep climbing up the ladder. Last year's 10-win regular season leads to a 12-win regular season — that means 12-0, undefeated, atop the Big 12 and playing for a national title.
Nightmare season Even with all these weapons, the offense disappoints. And that's one of the biggest disappointments in the F.B.S. at large, right alongside a 7-5 team in Stillwater.

We could hate them for being so perfect — if married musicians Josh Ritter and Dawn Landes weren't so nice. They had us at "Hello. How about some coffee?" and barely batted an eye when we invaded their adorable Brooklyn apartment to shoot this week's video.
The low-key, stylish couple — who are about to celebrate their first anniversary — set up a guitar and keyboard in their kitchen and performed "Southern Pacifica." It's off Ritter's album So Runs the World Away, coming out May 4.
Both Ritter and Landes (whose album Sweet Heart Rodeo came out in January) have a folksy, borderline country sound we can't get enough of. And they both sing about love — in a sweet, noncheesy way — a lot. It must be nice living with your muse.

Comments On Feb 09, 2014:I ruined my stock clutch, and replaced it with this. It wasn't necessarily an upgrade or anything, but it did the job I needed it to. Easy to install, but the gasket is a bugger.

Comments On Feb 10, 2014:I don't race my quad but I do ride it hard. I wanted to replace my clutch with something fresh before my trip last year to Hatfield McCoys. I gotta say I rode all of the black diamond trails and climbing those mountains in "beast mode" was effortless. Since then, not one problem in whatever terrain I ride in. I would definitely buy one of these clutch kits again! Thanks again RM!!!

Comments On Feb 03, 2014:I bought these for my KTM with a Rekluse Z-Start Pro in it, and never had an issue. I was a little leery of the price, but decided to get the kit any way and I'm glad I did! I raced the bike all season long with no clutch issues and saved a ton on these plates vs. OEM.

Comments On Jan 14, 2014:I bought this clutch kit never having installed one before. It was super easy to install. The only reason I gave this four stars was that the X model has stock judder springs and the instructions for the clutch kit said nothing about removing them to install the new kit. Not a big deal and nothing a little interweb search didn't clear up. Removing the springs actually improved the feel of the clutch by getting rid of the brief lag that it had before. It feels even better now, gives the clutch a snappier feel.

Comments On Dec 14, 2013:I've had good luck with Tusk. Their not the most expensive, but that's ok to me as long as it works. So far everything has been fine. Would recommend for others.

|Gardening merit badge
|Renamed from:
|BSA Advancement ID:
|Requirements revision:
|Latest pamphlet revision:
|Humans have been growing plants for thousands of years. Farmers and horticulturists make their living growing food and other plants, while other people grow gardens for pleasure. Becoming a good gardener requires a Scout to understand the science of growing plants—how to prepare the soil, how to select and plant seeds, and how to care for the growing plants.
The Gardening merit badge was one of the original 57 merit badges issued by the Boy Scouts of America in 1911.
It replaced the 1910 Gardener "Badge of Merit".
Gardening is one of the elective merit badges for the William T. Hornaday awards for Boy Scouts and Varsity Scouts.

Charged with expanding its national presence in wholesale banking, Minneapolis-based U.S. Bank had named Elliott Jaffee to lead its commercial banking division, overseeing nearly 550 people in offices across 25 states. Jaffee succeeds Kenneth Ladd, who retired at the end of 2012 after 30 years of service with U.S. Bank.
"Elliot is a dynamic leader and a great banker, who our middle market business clients trust and respect," said Dick Payne, U.S. Bancorp vice chairman and head of wholesale banking (under which the commercial banking division falls), in a press release. "For the past several years, U.S. Bank has grown from being a very good regional wholesale bank to a great national wholesale bank. As head of commercial banking, Elliot will play an important role in helping us build on our momentum in the $10 million- to $500 million-client segment."
Jaffee joined U.S. Bank in 1995 and has more than 20 years of experience in the financial services industry, most of which he spent at U.S. Bank. He has held a number of roles within U.S. Bank corporate bank, stepping into the Twin Cities market president role in 2006. Jaffee became a regional manager in 2010 and is currently responsible for commercial banking in the Twin Cities, Seattle, Portland, Las Vegas, Phoenix and Salt Lake City.

An online medical transcription program is designed to teach students how to accurately "transcribe" the daily tape recordings dictated by physicians and other allied health care professionals into administrative print and electronic material. This material goes inside of a patient's medical file. Although transcriptions may not be seen directly by the patient as often, they play a critical role in the health care industry as a whole since they are used as a reference when contemplating surgery and other methods of treatment for a patient.
While medical transcriptionists may not get the same training as a physician or nurse, they need to know what a physician is talking about in their daily recordings. Thus they can not just type out what they hear. This is why online medical transcription courses heavily focus on medical terminology and abbreviations. Naturally, students must also master word processing software and have strong grammar skills. Health law and ethics in medicine classes also make a bulk of the coursework.
Graduates typically work as medical transcriptions for a myriad of health care institutions, including hospitals, clinics and ambulance dispatch services. However, it is not uncommon for a medical transcriptionist to work at home as a contractor or for a third party medical transcription service. Other career possibilities include becoming a medical records technician, although additional training may be required.

USImprints Buying Guide - Custom Tote Bags
Shopping for promotional tote bags? Check out this video for a quick overview and some recommended products!
Our Recommended Cotton, Non-Woven, and Laminated Totes
- Natural Cotton Tote Bag. This all purpose cotton tote starts at $1.59 per tote or cheaper, making it one of the cheapest cotton totes. The imprint size for your logo is huge at over half of the bag size. This bag also comes in a large selection of colors. Given how affordable, big, and useful this tote is, it's no wonder why it is one of our best-sellers.
- Grocery Style Non-Woven Tote. Another proven pick, this tote is made out of Water-Resistant Polypropylene. These lightweight totes also have the benefit of being recyclable. This is an incredibly affordable tote, priced at $1.41 per tote or cheaper depending on order quantity and comes in 12 colors.
- Laminated Non-woven Tote. This promotional tote is a little higher end, starting at $2.24 per tote, but you get a lot for that extra price. Made from 100% recyclable water resistant polypropylene, this tote is laminated so it wipes clean easily, but also gives it a glossier, stylish look. There are very similar to the bags you find at Lululemon or Trader Joe's.
The Case for Promotional Totes
While any product is a potential fit for anyone, not every product has a use for everyone. Fortunately, if you're looking for broad appeal, tote bags fit the bill.
We sell over 100 custom totes at discount prices. If you're scrambling to organize an event or promotion, you can get a wide variety of 36-hour rush order totes. If affordable, lightweight giveaways that you can give out to hundreds or thousands are your thing we've got plenty of great polypropylene tote bags to choose from. If you're more into a natural, softer yet sturdier feel, take a look at our cotton totes.
Promotional tote bags are wildly popular for grocery shopping. Over the years, and as society becomes more environmentally conscious, we have seen a boom in shoppers using totes of all varieties for reusable shopping bags. Promotionally speaking, the benefits are plain as day. Branded totes are an item that pretty much any recipient will use, they associate your brand with an environmentally conscious lifestyle, and they are an inexpensive giveaway.
If you are only going to remember one thing about tote bags remember this: SIZE
Totes are kind of like the Swiss Army Knife of bags in the sense that, when it comes to carrying things, they are suited for most uses. Since tote bags are meant to carry a large assortment of items, you're going to want to make sure you're giving away large totes with lots of space. The good news is that tote bag designers are a clever bunch; pretty much all of our tote bags are big and roomy.
There is another benefit to the roomy yet easy to carry tote: a large imprint area. Because totes are such a simple bag, your logo or design is prominently and clearly displayed on the bag, and because these bags are well-sized, most of them have a large imprint area for a logo that really pops out. And while the tote is an item that only has so much room for design innovation, don't overlook the aesthetics of the promotional tote you'll be purchasing. For instance, are you looking for a colorful, vibrant product? Try this Panal Tote Bag.
There's not much more to custom totes than that. They are great promotional products at great prices, so get to shopping and customizing! As always, if you need assistance with anything, chat with our branding experts in the chat box at the bottom right corner or call us at 866-604-6774. And remember, our art team provides free expert art prep on all orders. Build your brand with USImprints, and happy shopping!

Ruby Reef Sliminator - 16 oz.
What is SLIMINATOR™?
SLIMINATOR™ is a safe and effective water treatment for the control of cyanobacteria (a.k.a. "slime algae") in marine and freshwater aquaria. One of the most important features of SLIMINATOR™ is that it does not contain, like most other products, antibiotics that can and will damage biological filtration. It has been scientifically formulated to specifically eliminate cyanobacteria without affecting the facultative anaerobes and nitrifying bacteria essential to effective biologic filtration. SLIMINATOR™ has a long track record of being safe for fish, corals, invertebrates and plants while slowly but effectively eliminating slime algae. It is especially effective for use in new reef and marine aquaria that are especially susceptible to slime algae during the first weeks or months until the biologic filtration has matured. SLIMINATOR™ has a long shelf life at room temperature and is supplied in easy to use, self-dosing bottles.
Is SLIMINATOR™ reef safe?
Yes. SLIMINATOR™ is safe for all fish, corals, invertebrates and macroalgae found in reef tanks.
How is SLIMINATOR™ different from other "reef safe" products?
What's in it?
SLIMINATOR™`s safety has been widely proven in hobby and commercial applications. The purity of the active ingredient (a 5-nitroimidazole) in SLIMINATOR™ is certified to meet standards of pharmaceutical purity. Consequently, the SLIMINATOR™ water treatment specifically eliminates cyanobacteria, but without unwanted side effects on beneficial bacteria and other beneficial microbes. No previous manufacturer has been able to provide 5-nitroimidazole reagents in a neutral aqueous solution, nor in any aqueous solution that confers stability upon dissolved nitroimidazoles.
What's not in it?
No copper! In addition, SLIMINATOR™ does not contain erythromycin or other broad spectrum antibiotics. Finally, SLIMINATOR™ contains no mysterious "natural ingredients" or other undefined "extracts" whose predictability is based largely on folklore. SLIMINATOR™ does not pretend to provide a one step treatment for the elimination of slime algae. Available methods for rapid elimination of cyanobacteria are generally based on broad-spectrum antibiotics that have a harmful impact on beneficial bacteria and other beneficial microbes and plankton components, as well as cyanobacteria. By comparison, SLIMINATOR™ slowly but steadily eliminates only the unwanted cyanobacteria. The SLIMINATOR™ water treatment strategy is effective in most applications within 12 – 15 days, although longer treatment periods are sometimes required in severe cases.
Can SLIMINATOR™ be used in combination with other RUBY-REEF™ products?
SLIMINATOR™ can be used with RALLY™ or KICK-ICH™.
Can SLIMINATOR™ be used in combination with other products or antibiotics?
SLIMINATOR™ can be used with phosphate and ammonia adsorbants, but not with activated carbon or related products. Use of SLIMINATOR™ simultaneously with antibiotics or other medications is not recommended.
What is the shelf life of SLIMINATOR™ and how should it be stored?
SLIMINATOR™ is stable for at least one year if stored at room temperature and out of direct strong light. Do not freeze or store in the cold. Do not shake prior to or during use and replace caps immediately after use.
How to use SLIMINATOR™?
Turn off protein skimmers and UV sterilizers, also remove carbon filtration and any absorbent media that would remove SLIMINATOR™ from the water. Dose on days 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13 for normal infections. Add three ounces of SLIMINATOR™ per 50 gallons of total water volume including the filtration system.
Manufacturer Info

Very disappointing.
10/21/2013 from DELTONA, FL UNITED STATES
Experience Level:
This product did not perform for me what it claims it does. I am into my second week, and the red slime bacteria is still prevalent in my tank. There are some patches of white slime now on the glass that I will have to clean off. I am giving it one more week, then I am going back to turning on my skimmer, adding activated carbon back in my filter and frequent water changes along with getting more crabs & snails (tank cleaners).

Saint Afra of Augsburg
Prostitute. During the Diocletian persecutions, she and her mother Hilaria hid their bishop. He converted them, and Afra devoted herself to working with the poor. Eventually she was ordered to sacrifice to pagan gods; she refused. Martyr.
When her mother, Saint Hilaria of Augsburg, and the servants Digna, Eunomia and Eprepria went to inter her burned remains in a sepulchre, they were caught by the authorities. The four of them were ordered to make the same sacrifice that Afra had refused. They refused, and were burned to death in Afra's sepulchre.
