Pelvic Examination
Test Overview
A pelvic examination is a complete physical exam of a woman's pelvic organs by a health professional. A pelvic exam helps a health professional evaluate the size and position of the vagina, cervix, uterus, and ovaries. A pelvic exam may be done to help detect certain cancers in their early stages, infections, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), or other reproductive system problems.
Why It Is Done
A pelvic exam may be done:
- As part of a woman's regular physical checkup. A Pap test may be done during the pelvic exam. To learn more, see the topic Pap Test.
- To detect vaginal infections, such as yeast infections or bacterial vaginosis.
- To help detect sexually transmitted infections (STIs), such as chlamydia, herpes, gonorrhea, trichomoniasis, or human papillomavirus (HPV).
- To help determine the cause of abnormal uterine bleeding.
- To evaluate pelvic organ abnormalities, such as uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, or uterine prolapse.
- To evaluate abdominal or pelvic pain.
- Before prescribing a method of birth control (contraception). Some methods of birth control, such as a diaphragm or intrauterine device, require a pelvic exam to make sure the device fits properly.
- To collect evidence in cases of suspected sexual assault.
How To Prepare
Before a pelvic exam:
- Try to schedule the exam when you are not having your period, since blood can interfere with the results of a Pap test. But if you have a new vaginal discharge or new or increasing pelvic pain, a pelvic exam may be done while you are having your period.
- Do not use douches, tampons, vaginal medicines, or vaginal sprays or powders for at least 24 hours.
- Do not have sex for 24 hours prior to the exam if you have abnormal vaginal discharge.
At the beginning of your visit, tell your health professional:
- If you are or might be pregnant.
- If you have any reproductive or urinary tract symptoms such as itching, redness, sores, swelling, or an unusual odor or increased vaginal discharge. If you have been performing regular vaginal self-exams, discuss any changes you have noticed with your health professional. To learn more, see the topic Vaginal Self-Examination (VSE).
- If you are using a method of birth control.
- If this is your first pelvic exam.
- The first day of your last menstrual period and how long your period lasted.
- If you have had surgery or other procedures, such as radiation therapy, involving the vagina, cervix, or uterus.
If you have had problems with pelvic exams in the past or have experienced rape or sexual abuse, talk to your health professional about your concerns or fears before the exam.
No other special preparations are needed before having a pelvic exam. For your own comfort, you may want to empty your bladder before the exam.
Talk to your health professional about any concerns you have regarding the need for the test, its risks, how it will be done, or what the results may mean. To help you understand the importance of this test, fill out the medical test information form(What is a PDF document?).
How It Is Done
During a pelvic exam, you will:
- Take off your clothes below the waist. You will have a paper or cloth covering around your waist. If you are having a yearly exam, you may need to undress completely so your health professional can also do a breast exam.
- Lie on your back on an exam table with your feet raised and supported by stirrups. This allows the health professional to examine your vulva, urethra, vagina, and other reproductive organs. You may want to wear socks to keep your feet warm while they are in the stirrups.
- Have a drape across your body for privacy during the test. The health professional may use a lamp during the test, and you can ask for a mirror if you want to watch while the test is being done.
A female nurse or assistant may stay in the room with you during the exam. You may also request the presence of your partner or a friend.
External exam
During the external exam, the health professional will:
- Check your vulva and the opening of your vagina for signs of redness, irritation, discharge, cysts, genital warts, and other abnormal conditions.
- Check inside your vagina with his or her gloved fingers for any cysts or pus coming from the Bartholin glands.
- Gently insert the speculum into your vagina. The speculum spreads apart the vaginal walls, allowing the inside of the vagina and the cervix to be examined. The speculum may be plastic or metal and may be warmed with water or lubricated with a vaginal lubricant (such as K-Y Jelly).
- Check the walls of your vagina and your cervix for damage, growths, inflammation, unusual discharge, or discoloration.
If you are due for a Pap test, your health professional will use a small brush or a wooden spatula to gently collect a sample of cervical cells. You may have some staining or bleeding after the sample is taken. A sample of the cervical mucus may also be obtained with a cotton swab and tested for sexually transmitted infections such as gonorrhea or chlamydia.
Bimanual exam
This exam is usually done as part of a pelvic exam. Your health professional will insert one or two gloved fingers of one hand into your vagina while placing the other hand on your lower abdomen. By pressing down on the abdomen and moving the fingers around inside your vagina, your health professional can locate and determine the size, shape, and consistency of the uterus and ovaries. Any unusual growths, tenderness, or pain can also be identified.
Rectovaginal exam
For this exam, your health professional will insert one finger into your rectum and one into your vagina. This helps your health professional evaluate your ovaries and uterus ligaments. This exam is not always done as part of a pelvic exam.
After the exam is finished, you will be given a washcloth or tissue to wipe your vaginal area to remove any discharge resulting from the exam. Then you will get dressed. Some test results may be available immediately, but results from the Pap test may take from several days to a couple of weeks.
How It Feels
A pelvic exam is more comfortable if you and the health professional are relaxed during the procedure. Breathing deeply and having a light conversation with your health professional may help you relax. Try not to hold your breath or tense your muscles.
You may feel some pressure or mild discomfort when the speculum is inserted into your vagina. Try to relax your legs and hips as much as you can. You may experience pain or irritation, especially if you have a vaginal infection. If a metal speculum is used, the metal may feel cold and hard. The speculum may be warmed with water or lubricated with a vaginal lubricant, such as K-Y Jelly, before being inserted into the vagina.
During the bimanual part of the exam, you may feel an uncomfortable sensation of pressure or a slight twinge of pain as the health professional feels your ovaries. Breathing deeply may help you relax. You may feel a brief pinch when the Pap test is taken. Tell your health professional if any part of the exam is painful.
During the rectovaginal exam, you may feel as though you are about to have a bowel movement as the health professional withdraws a finger from your rectum. This is a normal sensation that lasts only a few seconds. You may have a small amount of vaginal discharge or bleeding after the exam.
There are no risks linked with a pelvic exam.
A pelvic examination is a complete physical exam of a woman's pelvic organs by a health professional. A pelvic exam helps a health professional evaluate the size and position of the vagina, cervix, uterus, and ovaries.
The uterus and ovaries are normal in size and location. The uterus can be moved slightly without causing pain.
The vulva, vagina, and cervix appear normal with no signs of infection, inflammation, or other abnormalities.
Glands around the opening of your vagina (Bartholin's glands) or urethra (Skene's glands) are not swollen or inflamed.
No masses (nodules) of abnormal tissue are felt in the area between the uterus and rectum (cul-de-sac) or in the strong bands of tissue (ligaments) that attach to the uterus to hold it in place. No fibroids are felt during the bimanual pelvic or rectal exams.
No pelvic pain or tenderness is present.
No hardening of tissue is felt.
Sores, signs of infection, inflammation, or abnormalities of the vulva, vagina, or cervix are present. Signs of a sexually transmitted infection (such as genital herpes, genital warts, or syphilis) may be present. Additional testing will be required to determine the cause.
The glands around the vagina (Bartholin's glands) or urethra (Skene's glands) are swollen or inflamed.
The uterus cannot be moved (even slightly) during the exam.
Pain or tenderness is felt when the uterus is moved slightly or when the area between the uterus and rectum (cul-de-sac) is touched. The uterus is pushed away from the midline of the abdomen.
The ovaries are enlarged, not movable (fixed), or painful when touched.
An ovarian mass is present or a mass that was detected during a previous gynecologic exam is still present or has grown larger.
Small masses (nodules) of abnormal tissue are felt near the uterus or in the cul-de-sac. Uterine fibroids are felt during the bimanual pelvic or rectal exam.
Hardening of tissue (induration) is felt.
An area of ulceration or a tear is found.
A mass can be felt near one or both ovaries.
Many conditions can change the results of your pelvic exam. Your health professional will discuss any significant abnormal results with you in relation to your symptoms and past health.
What Affects the Test
Reasons you may not be able to have the test or why the results may not be helpful include:
- Menstrual blood.
- A vaginal infection.
- The use of douches or vaginal creams or preparations within 24 hours of the exam.
What To Think About
- If you may have a sexually transmitted infection (STI), other testing may be needed to confirm a diagnosis.
- Pelvic ultrasound is another test used to evaluate a woman's pelvic organs. To learn more, see the topic Pelvic Ultrasound.
- Vaginal self-exam (VSE) may help you better understand your body, know what is normal for you, and find early signs of infections or other abnormal conditions that might require medical attention. VSE should supplement but not replace a regular pelvic exam and Pap test done by a health professional. To learn more, see the topic Vaginal Self-Examination (VSE).

An agreement has been reached that will impact some recreational use on several popular trails in west Colorado Springs.
The Pike and San Isabel National Forest and the Center for Biological Diversity signed an agreement Wednesday that will prohibit motorcycle and off-road vehicle use on several trails above Cheyenne Canon and off High Drive. This includes the heavily traveled Captain Jack's trail system and the Pipeline Trail, which runs through Jones Park.
The ban has been put in place to ensure survival of the rare greenback cutthroat trout, which resides in Bear Creek. Earlier in the year, researchers discovered that the 750 living in the creek are the only pure and wild population of the fish left anywhere. Erosion caused by vehicles using the trail system around Bear Creek have harmed the water quality by sending runoff into the stream, filling deep pools that the fish use to hide from predators and survive harsh winter or drought conditions, according to the Center for Biological Diversity.
Based on the terms of the agreement, trails 665, 667, 668, 701 and 720 will be closed to vehicles until the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service determines that motorized vehicle use poses no further threat to the cutthroat trout.
This agreement does not impact hikers, equestrians or mountain bikers, a fact which has been met by strong opposition in some circles. The Colorado Trails Preservation Alliance, an all-volunteer group of motorcyclists with a mission to preserve single-track trails throughout the state for motorized vehicles, say motorcyclists and off-road vehicles have been unfairly targeted by this ban.

This huge plume of smoke is where the old Claiborne Towers used to be. The building known as the Pallas Hotel was one of the last buildings remaining in the downtown area. It has changed hands several times since it's 1950 opening but has sat abandoned as a hotel for many years.
The demolition took place early Sunday morning to make way for the new University Medical Center, a hospital being built to replace the old Charity Hospital, which was closed after Hurricane Katrina struck in 2005 and flooded the hospital's basement.

INDIANA (www.incnow.tv) - If you bought a Powerball ticket in the Hoosier state you might still be a winner, just not the $580 million jackpot.
Two tickets sold in Indiana matched the first five numbers but not the Powerball.
They were sold in Highland and Vincennes and are each worth a-million dollars.
Indiana retailers sold more than 206,000 winning Powerball tickets at some cash level.
So check those tickets again!
The winning numbers are 5-23-16-22-29 and the Powerball number is 6.

The Chinese government will from this year begin to stage special exhibitions of Chinese brands in African countries starting with Tanzania.
This was announced at the weekend in Dar es Salaam by Head of delegation of China Foreign Trade Centre Li De Ying who is leading a delegation of Chinese businesspersons in Tanzania.
He said the first session of African showcase will jointly be hosted by the Ministry of Commerce of China, people's government of Jiangsu Province, people's government of Zhejiang Province and the people's government of Guangdong Province all of China and will be held in Dar es Salaam in July this year.
"This event will be held at the Dar es Salaam International Exhibition Centre in July and would cover a total exhibition area of 3000 square meters with 140 standard booths," Ying said.
He said they have decided to have commodity showcases in Africa to promote the economic and trade relations existing between China and African countries.
"That is why we want to display Chinese commodities image and we shall be doing it annually starting with Dar es Salaam," he noted.
He applauded Tanzania for being one of the business prosperity countries in Africa, goods distribution centre and one of the most important trading centres in East Africa.
Ying said bilateral trade of both sides has grown steadily according to the reform and economic liberalization and policy implementation by Tanzania.
For his part, Tanzania Chamber of Commerce, industry and Agriculture (TCCIA) president Aloys Mwamanga said the chamber is pleased to learn that China wants to hold exhibitions of its commodities in African countries starting with Tanzania.
"The first session of its showcases is scheduled to be held in Dar es salaam, Tanzania during the Dar es Salaam International Trade Fair next July," he said.
He said Tanzania is the right destination for foreign goods distribution in Africa.
"We want the 2012 showcase to further strengthen the economic and trade cooperation and cultural exchanges between China and Tanzania," he said.
The TCCIA boss suggested to China to exhibit commodities that depict technology transfer in agriculture (value addition) and promotion of transport, construction and industrial manufacturing.

Anime Expo® and the SPJA reserve the right to modify and/or update this policy at any time.
Your participation in the Event means that you agree to comply with this Weapons Policy. The "Event" means any event held by the Society for Promotion of Japanese Animation ("SPJA" or "we"), such as Anime Expo®, Anime Conji®, and Project Anime®.
You further understand and agree that, for your own safety and the safety of everyone at the Event, SPJA has the absolute and immediate right to inspect your costumes, prop weapons, and any other item you bring to the Event. We may temporarily or permanently remove any attendee at any time for violating this Weapons Policy — because your safety, and every attendee's safety, is so important.
No real weapons are allowed at the Event.
This includes firearms, knives, curio, relic, and antique firearms, and every form of ammunition, whether carried openly or concealed and even if the weapons are inoperable or unusable. Even items that may be legal for you to own or carry are not welcome at our events if they violate this Weapons policy. The following are examples of weapons that you CANNOT bring to the Event:
Prop Weapons are allowed only if they are Peace Bonded by Weapons Check.
Prop weapons are inoperable weapons that support the overall look of your costume or character. For example, Airsoft guns, Nerf guns, water guns, dart guns, disc guns, pellet guns, and cap guns are prop weapons.
Prop weapons must be submitted to "Weapons Check" for Peace Bonding. SPJA has the sole discretion to approve prop weapons. Anime Expo's Weapons Check booths are located in both the South Hall Lobby and the West Hall Lobby. Other Event Weapons Check booths shall be designated in the programs and on signs.
We may revoke Peace Bonding at any time in our sole discretion. For example, we will revoke approval if you use or brandish the item in an inappropriate fashion (like play-fighting or swinging the weapon around). We will also revoke approval if we receive complaints about the way you are using or displaying your prop weapon or futuristic device, or if you tamper with the device that Weapons Check uses to show that your prop weapon has been Peace Bonded.
Peace Bonding Rules
If a prop weapon is, or was, at any time capable of firing anything, it must be rendered permanently inoperable in order to qualify for Peace Bonding. You can do this by, for example, permanently plugging the barrel with glue, caulk, or any non-removable substance. You must be able to prove that the gun is permanently decommissioned upon inspection. Bring tools if necessary
In addition, to be Peace Bonded, your weapon must meet the following criteria:
If your prop weapon looks realistic, then federal law requires that it either be translucent enough to see inside, or be at least half covered with solid white or bright red, orange, yellow, green, blue, pink, or purple. 15 CFR § 1150.3.
Peace-bonded weapons at the Event.
You may display your prop weapons only as costume pieces. Do not swing or brandish your prop weapon in any way that could be considered unsafe or threatening.
You may pose with a prop weapon in a brandishing manner, so long as no reasonable person would interpret it as anything but a pose for dramatic effect. Event staff or management may stop your posed brandishing in their sole discretion.
Please put your prop weapons away when leaving the Event site at night so that you don't get the attention of local law enforcement. SPJA cannot be responsible for any actions taken by local law 2 enforcement – such as detention and questioning – if you decide to display or brandish your prop weapons at or outside of the Event.
Martial Arts Performances & Demos
You may display working martial arts weapons during, and 30 minutes before and after, a performance that has been approved by Event management in advance.
Of course, you must use common sense to avoid harming any person or property. You must conceal or wrap the weapons when transporting them to and from the demonstration, and you must remove the weapons immediately after the demonstration. Con staff reserves the right to stop any performance or demonstration in their sole discretion.
Uniformed Costumes
It's just not safe to impersonate local law enforcement or other emergency personnel. SPJA has the absolute right and sole discretion to decide whether your costume looks too much like one of these uniforms, and to request the removal or modification of that costume. If you don't cooperate, we may expel you from the Event in order to protect the safety and welfare of everyone there.
If You Buy Weapons at the Event
If you buy a prop or other weapon from at the Event, you must immediately submit it to Weapons Check or remove it from the Event hall.

Associated Press Release
ATLANTA (AP) -- A part-time parking deck worker at Atlanta's airport says she never thought about keeping the envelope with $7,000 in cash she found on the curb outside the international terminal.
Pamela North Hollowaay says she turned it in right away, then watched as her supervisor counted the money and contacted Atlanta police to pick it up.
North Hollowaay says she could have kept the cash but didn't because she's an honest person who believes in doing the right thing.
A police report shows that the envelope contained 70 $100 bills.
Police tell WSB-TV that an Alabama podiatrist who was on his way to Costa Rica called police to see if anyone had turned in the money. Police say he was able to identify specific writing on the envelope and how the money was wrapped.

FW Artists Ink is an acrylic-based, pigmented, water-resistant ink in a range of 38 colors, all of which have either a three-star or four-star rating for permanence.
Such a high degree of lightfastness over such a range of fully intermixable colors makes them ideal for use by artists in the production of pictures for permanent display. (Note – Fluorescent colors are not lightfast.)
Colors can be substantially diluted to achieve the most subtle of tones, very similar in character to watercolor. Such washes will dry to a water-resistant film and successive layers of color can be laid over them in a highly predicable manner.
FW Artists Inks work well with airbrushes, dip pens, technical pens, and brushes. Select colors are available in both 1 oz and 6 oz sizes. The dropper from the 1 oz size also fits the tops of the 6 oz bottles.
Neon Colors, Set of 6 — This set of six 1 oz (30 ml) bottles contains every fluorescent color in the line, including Fluorescent Red, Fluorescent Yellow, Fluorescent Green, Fluorescent Blue, Fluorescent Orange, and Fluorescent Pink. (Note – Fluorescent colors are not lightfast.)
Primary Colors Set — This set of six 1 oz (30 ml) bottles contains Lemon Yellow, Process Magenta, Process Cyan, Sepia, Emerald Green, and Scarlet.
Shimmering Colors Set — This set of six 1 oz (30 ml) bottles contains Shimmering Blue, Shimmering Red, Shimmering Green, Shimmering Gold, Velvet Violet, and Black (India).
Color Chart Note — Use this color chart as an approximation of the real color. If exact color matching is necessary, use actual samples of the materials.

| Max
(マサト Masato)
|Petalburg City
|May, Norman, Caroline
|First Appearance:
|There's no Place Like Hoenn
|Voice actor:
| Amy Birnbaum (English) (4Kids)
Kayzie Rogers (English)(PUSA/TAJ)
'Max' (Japanese: マサト Masato) is the younger brother of May in the anime. He has not yet received a Pokémon because he is under-age, but he became one of Ash's companions and joined Ash, Brock and his sister in order to see new Pokémon.
Max is a genius in the theory of Pokémon training, but he was too young to receive a Pokémon when he first appeared. Both May and Max are the children of Norman, the Gym Leader of Petalburg City and his wife Caroline. The two have a very close relationship. They often get upset with each other, but when they are in dangerous situations they try to protect each other, especially May. She sometimes gets angry with Max because he knows a lot about Pokémon and she is annoyed by not knowing the basics of training or Pokémon. He decided to travel with Ash and May to see even more Pokémon.
When Ash arrived at the gym without May in Petalburg City, he was met by little Max who was surprised to meet a trainer who he had watched on television only weeks ago, through participation in the Johto League Silver Conference. But he also mocked him for losing in the quarter finals of the tournament. He also criticized the Pokémon May chose, Torchic, saying he would have chosen a Treecko.
During his travels with his sister and his friends, Max was in charge of May's PokéNav, acting as a guide. Later on in the series, Max makes a habit of pulling Brock's ear when he sees and talks to a pretty girl, halting his romantic advances as Misty did in Kanto and Johto and the way Croagunk would Poison Jab Brock in Sinnoh for similar effect.
In the movie Jirachi: Wish Maker, Jirachi partnered with Max, becoming his first Pokémon. In Do I Hear A Ralts?, Max rescued a Ralts that was hurt and took the job of returning it back to its family, Gardevoir and Kirlia.
In Battle Dimension, Max made a brief cameo appearance with his parents watching May compete in the Wallace Cup, and also appears in a photo in the second Diamond and Pearl Special Episode.
As Max has not become an official Pokémon Trainer, he does not own any Pokémon, but he has befriended some wild Pokémon and borrow some from Ash and the others occasionally.
|Max befriended a Shroomish in AG009: Taming of the Shroomish!.
|Shroomish ♂
|Max befriended a Poochyena and, although his three brothers who were born at the same time, Poochyena was unable to evolve like them. The only move it knew was tackle so Max attempted to teach it Bite. After a battle with Team Rocket, after using Bite, it evolved.
|Poochyena → Mightyena ♂
|Max befriended Jirachi in the movie Jirachi: Wish Maker.
|Max befriended a Shuppet in AG081.
|Shuppet ♂
|In the episode "Do I hear a Ralts?", our heroes encounter a Ralts that is really sick and Max took him to a Pokémon Center. At the end of the chapter, Ralts went back to the woods and saw its family members, Kirlia and Gardevoir. Max promises Ralts that he'll come back when he's a Pokemon Trainer.
|Ralts ♂
|Max befriended a Deoxys in the episode AG171
|While Max was walking around in a building with Ash, May and Brock, he accidentally stepped on Poliwag's tail and it immediately came out. After Max apologized to the Tadpole Pokémon, it was revealed that it belonged to the Pokémon Trainer's School in Hoenn. Later on, Max was given Poliwag as he was choosing a Poké Ball for the training arena. It was narrowly defeated by Tommy's Magby as Team Rocket interrupted the match as they were stealing Poké Balls from the Deposit Room. While Poliwag distracted Team Rocket, Magby's Flamethrower burned the Wurmple mecha Team Rocket was on and they were blasted off.
|Ash let Max borrow Corphish since Max did not own any Pokémon of his own. It was up against Vivi Winstrate's Marill. Corphish was able to defeat Marill after disobeying Max's commands.
|May lent Munchlax to Max to help him in a treasure search where stamps are the objective. But in the end he did not win.

- Max is always seen holding a Pokéblock case in his bag or pocket, but May was seen several times getting it out from her bag.

- Like Misty, Max drags Brock by the ears when he falls in love. Max had done this after seeing Misty doing it to Brock.
- Max looks some what a lot like Conway. They wear glasses, wear a green shirt, and have the same hair style.

The tree is up and the shopping is (almost) done – so let's talk parties. Wardrobe-wise, the holidays are when I pull out all the stops and never fear overdressing. But playing hostess brings a whole new set of rules: you don't have to worry about being weather-appropriate, but you do need to be ready to jump into action (whether it's whipping up more apps or sopping up that spilled cocktail). Look no further than these pieces to assemble the hostess-friendly outfit of your party dreams.
The dress: As the hostess, you're lucky enough to never have to brave the elements. Take advantage and rock something without sleeves – you may not get that chance again for quite a few months. This one-shoulder beauty keeps things seasonally appropriate with a rich, deep purple.
The tights: Okay, so you don't have to venture outdoors – still, bare legs throw off a winter-friendly ensemble. These sparkly tights are totally festive and fitting for a holiday soiree. And if there's need for a last-minute trip to the corner store, you'll be ready.
The shoes: In general, I tend to avoid heels at all costs. But if there's one occasion to break from the norm, it's a holiday party. That doesn't mean forsaking comfort, though – opt for something basic, and make sure you're ready to take on a night of making the rounds before you commit to heels.
The finishing touches: I love this ponytail for an at-home party – it's glamorous, yet functional when hostess duties call. To complement your 'do, go for simpler earrings with lots of drop. As for bracelets, I love bangles. They won't get in the way, and are the most customizable kind of bling – wear them stacked or solo.

The light itself is junk. only visible within 4 inches of whatever youre trying to see. barely even see the laser pointer, dont even know why youd need one.
after an hour or so of shimming my valves the 3 batteries that came with it died and i just threw it away. get what you pay for

Comments On May 25, 2013:This is actually a pretty nice light for under $10. Its very bright and has two buttons one for the light and one for the laser pointer. The head of the light is flexible so you can bend it anyway you want to. The only con is the magnet on the bottom of the unit could be a little stronger.

22 U.S. Code § 6021 - Findings
prev | next
The Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The economy of Cuba has experienced a decline of at least 60 percent in the last 5 years as a result of—
(A) the end of its subsidization by the former Soviet Union of between 5 billion and 6 billion dollars annually;
(2) At the same time, the welfare and health of the Cuban people have substantially deteriorated as a result of this economic decline and the refusal of the Castro regime to permit free and fair democratic elections in Cuba.
(3) The Castro regime has made it abundantly clear that it will not engage in any substantive political reforms that would lead to democracy, a market economy, or an economic recovery.
(4) The repression of the Cuban people, including a ban on free and fair democratic elections, and continuing violations of fundamental human rights, have isolated the Cuban regime as the only completely nondemocratic government in the Western Hemisphere.
(5) As long as free elections are not held in Cuba, the economic condition of the country and the welfare of the Cuban people will not improve in any significant way.
(6) The totalitarian nature of the Castro regime has deprived the Cuban people of any peaceful means to improve their condition and has led thousands of Cuban citizens to risk or lose their lives in dangerous attempts to escape from Cuba to freedom.
(7) Radio Marti and Television Marti have both been effective vehicles for providing the people of Cuba with news and information and have helped to bolster the morale of the people of Cuba living under tyranny.
(8) The consistent policy of the United States towards Cuba since the beginning of the Castro regime, carried out by both Democratic and Republican administrations, has sought to keep faith with the people of Cuba, and has been effective in sanctioning the totalitarian Castro regime.
(9) The United States has shown a deep commitment, and considers it a moral obligation, to promote and protect human rights and fundamental freedoms as expressed in the Charter of the United Nations and in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
(10) The Congress has historically and consistently manifested its solidarity and the solidarity of the American people with the democratic aspirations of the Cuban people.
(11) The Cuban Democracy Act of 1992 [22 U.S.C. 6001 et seq.] calls upon the President to encourage the governments of countries that conduct trade with Cuba to restrict their trade and credit relations with Cuba in a manner consistent with the purposes of that Act.
(12) Amendments to the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 [22 U.S.C. 2151 et seq.] made by the FREEDOM Support Act require that the President, in providing economic assistance to Russia and the emerging Eurasian democracies, take into account the extent to which they are acting to "terminate support for the communist regime in Cuba, including removal of troops, closing military facilities, and ceasing trade subsidies and economic, nuclear, and other assistance".
(13) The Cuban Government engages in the illegal international narcotics trade and harbors fugitives from justice in the United States.
(14) The Castro government threatens international peace and security by engaging in acts of armed subversion and terrorism such as the training and supplying of groups dedicated to international violence.
(15) The Castro government has utilized from its inception and continues to utilize torture in various forms (including by psychiatry), as well as execution, exile, confiscation, political imprisonment, and other forms of terror and repression, as means of retaining power.
(16) Fidel Castro has defined democratic pluralism as "pluralistic garbage" and continues to make clear that he has no intention of tolerating the democratization of Cuban society.
(17) The Castro government holds innocent Cubans hostage in Cuba by no fault of the hostages themselves solely because relatives have escaped the country.
(18) Although a signatory state to the 1928 Inter-American Convention on Asylum and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (which protects the right to leave one's own country), Cuba nevertheless surrounds embassies in its capital by armed forces to thwart the right of its citizens to seek asylum and systematically denies that right to the Cuban people, punishing them by imprisonment for seeking to leave the country and killing them for attempting to do so (as demonstrated in the case of the confirmed murder of over 40 men, women, and children who were seeking to leave Cuba on July 13, 1994).
(19) The Castro government continues to utilize blackmail, such as the immigration crisis with which it threatened the United States in the summer of 1994, and other unacceptable and illegal forms of conduct to influence the actions of sovereign states in the Western Hemisphere in violation of the Charter of the Organization of American States and other international agreements and international law.
(20) The United Nations Commission on Human Rights has repeatedly reported on the unacceptable human rights situation in Cuba and has taken the extraordinary step of appointing a Special Rapporteur.
(21) The Cuban Government has consistently refused access to the Special Rapporteur and formally expressed its decision not to "implement so much as one comma" of the United Nations Resolutions appointing the Rapporteur.
(22) The United Nations General Assembly passed Resolution 47–139 on December 18, 1992, Resolution 48–142 on December 20, 1993, and Resolution 49–200 on December 23, 1994, referencing the Special Rapporteur's reports to the United Nations and condemning violations of human rights and fundamental freedoms in Cuba.
(23) Article 39 of Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter provides that the United Nations Security Council "shall determine the existence of any threat to the peace, breach of the peace, or act of aggression and shall make recommendations, or decide what measures shall be taken . . ., to maintain or restore international peace and security.".
(24) The United Nations has determined that massive and systematic violations of human rights may constitute a "threat to peace" under Article 39 and has imposed sanctions due to such violations of human rights in the cases of Rhodesia, South Africa, Iraq, and the former Yugoslavia.
(25) In the case of Haiti, a neighbor of Cuba not as close to the United States as Cuba, the United States led an effort to obtain and did obtain a United Nations Security Council embargo and blockade against that country due to the existence of a military dictatorship in power less than 3 years.
(26) United Nations Security Council Resolution 940 of July 31, 1994, subsequently authorized the use of "all necessary means" to restore the "democratically elected government of Haiti", and the democratically elected government of Haiti was restored to power on October 15, 1994.
(27) The Cuban people deserve to be assisted in a decisive manner to end the tyranny that has oppressed them for 36 years, and the continued failure to do so constitutes ethically improper conduct by the international community.

This year was the best year ever because Mr. Dugger always made everything that we did fun and special. I wish the school year would never end but it has to. The whole school year felt like it was only one month because time flies by when you're having fun, right. I am going to miss these specific classmates a lot because they were all nice to me and they were all respectful to me too because look when the gym teachers see you doing that they give you golden sneaker and guess what thats what we got. Some people were like who hoooooooooooooooooooooo! I will carry these silly memories funny memories and sad memeories all the way to fifth grade.

Hi! My title DTE'S because DTE stands for "Dugger Teaching Entertainment". The fourth grade was AWESOME! I don't even know how to start. Our class created three websites. That's right THREE! We learned about crayfish and we even got the chance to bring one home. We could have brought two home but my mom would have a "heart attack". We made commercials by ourselves. That was so much fun! We learned about explorers and we made a commercial about it. The best part about the fourth grade is all of my friends. They are the best! In the beginning of the year I only had 5 friends and now I have 26! I'll miss them in the summer but I can't wait to see them in September. Oh yeah, by the way some of us are starting a rock band. Watch out for me I'll be the one on lead guitar!

Hello readers, this is your writer. This assignment is my class's last assignment. I think you know what I'm going to write. In case you don't know what I'm going to write my way of saying farewell to fourth grade. Fourth grade, I bid you farewell. I enjoyed learning with Mr. Dugger. I loved the technology that he used with our projects. I am very happy and lucky to have him. Now it's time for the final word of my final blog assignment. Bye.

Hello... School's almost over, blah, blah, blah! I'm glum. Do you know why? I'm going to miss Mr. D, Mrs. D, Mrs. Troy, and all of I think this has been the best school year of my life. Who could ask for a classroom teacher who's a computer whiz?! I mean, he made us a montage! I mean, come on? Who could ask for that?! Mr. Dugger is the best teacher in the world. I've had all of this fun, and now it has to end, right when I don't want it to. We did the craycast together, the DMSB music video, the place value rap, the blog, the wiki, myhistoryspace, the wanted signs, I couldn't ask for more. You too Mrs. D'Eramo and Mrs. Troy! I can't thank you guys enough. I think everyone else is focused on summer, while very few are focused on our school year. We're like a family being torn apart. I dont' want to move up and I don't want to go to middle school next year. I wish I could fail fourth grade and have you guys again. And Mr. D, I will never and I mean never forget "the walk!!!" It was so funny. I even remember last August, when I got my card to say who was my teacher, I read Dugger and I was jumping up and down. Literally. And now my parents know why. And for the one last time, thank you! Goodbye!

Toronto, ON (SportsNetwork.com) - P.A. Parenteau notched a goal early in the
third period to lead the Colorado Avalanche to a 2-1 win over the Toronto
Maple Leafs at Air Canada Centre.
An Avalanche counter-attack early in the final period broke the tie and led to
the 2-1 edge. Jamie McGinn came up with a loose puck near mid-ice, sprinted
towards goal and laid off a pass to Parenteau, who led the team in goals last
season with 18. The 30-year old tapped it in at the 2:30 mark for his third of
the season.
Cory Sarich also lit the lamp for Colorado, which improved to 3-0 to begin a
season for the first time since they were the Quebec Nordiques and started 5-0
in the 1994-95 campaign.
Semyon Varlamov stopped 27 of 28 shots in the triumph and has given up just
one goal in all three games this season.
Joffrey Lupul scored his second goal of the year for Toronto, which lost for
the first time.
Jonathan Bernier, who replaced James Reimer and stopped all 15 shots he saw in
Toronto's shootout win over the Senators on Saturday, made 31 saves in the
The Leafs broke a 0-0 tie midway through the second period. Lupul hit Nathan
MacKinnon against the boards in the Colorado zone at the 13:10 mark, forcing
an Avs turnover. Carter Ashton came up with the puck and fired a shot, which
was turned away by Varlamov, but an opportunistic Lupul was there to slap it
Sarich tied the score minutes later when he gathered the disc and skated down
the right side uncontested before sneaking a wrist-shot past Bernier.
Former Calder Trophy winner Gabriel Landeskog returned to the lineup for the
Avs after suffering a leg injury on opening night ... Parenteau has scored
three goals in his last two games ... Colorado has defeated the Leafs four
straight times in Toronto and were winners in five of the last seven matchups

Smoke Free Community
Dedicated to Tobacco-free Living
Tips From Former Smokers
In March 2012, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) launched the first-ever paid national tobacco education campaign- Tips From Former Smokers (Tips). Tips encouraged people to quit smoking by highlighting the toll that smoking-related illnesses take on smokers and their loved ones. The hard-hitting ads showed people living with the real and painful consequences of smoking. Many of the people featured in the ads started smoking in their early teens, and some were diagnosed with life-changing diseases before they were age 40; including cancer, heart attack, stroke, asthma, and Buerger's disease. The ads not only show the toll that these smoking-related illnesses have taken on these individuals' lives, but also provide encouragement to quit smoking and information on how to access free help.
The Tips campaign provides a unique and compelling perspective on the significant damage smoking causes to individuals. The individuals featured in the ads are not actors. They speak from experience, and all have agreed to share their stories to send a single, powerful message: Quit smoking now. Or better yet - don't start.
James' Story
James started smoking at age 14 in an attempt to be like his father. Thirty years later he decided to quit and adopt a much healthier lifestyle. Now 48, James has been smoke-free for 2 years and has made other important changes to improve his health. He became an avid cyclist and rides up to 10 miles every day for exercise. He also enjoys swimming and does some sort of cardio exercise every morning. He says if you smoke, you should quit. The PA Free Quitline offers smoking cessation services to all Pennsylvanians 24 hours per day/7 days per week. Call 1-800-QUIT-NOW.

Breaking down the Warriors' schedule
The NBA released the regular-season schedules for every team in the NBA on Tuesday. The Warriors open at home against the Houston Rockets on Wednesday, Oct. 27 at 7:30 p.m. Then they go on the road and never come home. Or at least it seems that way with how many road games dot the first couple months of the season. The Warriors actually play four of their first five games at home. After that, Golden State has a brutal stretch in which it will… Read More »
