As im pretty sure i know who OZ_skating_mum is, i know that she is JUST a parent. Yes she may watch a lot of skating but that doesnt mean she knows anything about turns, patterns and edges. She doesn't know whats involved. I wouldn't have reacted to this if it were a coach, or an official, but from a mother it doesnt seem appropriate.
Im not trying to come off as an angry person or an arrogant person, i just didnt think it was appropriate for a mother to comment about high levels skaters saying that their standard isn't high enough.
She should know that in Australia we don't have the facilities or the money to produce internationally high ranking skaters. All of our previous and current highest level skaters ( cameron medhurst, Carrs, Cheltzie lee, Brenden) All spend lots of time in the US. So although the new Australian patterns are a step in the right direction, i dont believe we are going to see too much of a difference in our skaters because we just dont have the facilities and money to nurture our skaters.
Sorry if i came off a bit arrogant and demanding, i was just stating my opinion
What she said was perfectly valid, so she clearly knows SOMETHING. "JUST" a parent doesn't mean she isn't educated in the sport. Many people who are just fans know A LOT about what proper technique should look like. She never said she was able to teach it, or she could do better than a coach. But pointing out that the skill is lacking doesn't require anything more than knowledge of the sport.
Im not trying to get angry, but as a coach im just stating how i interpreted her comment, as it seemed like she thought she could do it better than high level skaters
I guess the hard thing for a lot of people to accept is why God would allow me to go running through their yards, yelling and spinning around.
Well i do know who she is, and I don't have anything against her. I just didnt like that the critical comment of high levels skaters in australia ( who i teach) came from a parent who doesnt know much about skating.
I'm currently at Aussie Skate Free Skate 3, and have a flip and loop fully rotated (I just can't land them on one foot) so with the obvious view to my ISA tests, Coach and I started working on the Preliminary edges recently.
Coach also showed me the new Elementary patterns. We went right through them and did them all.
I think they're pretty good. The Elementary pattern didn't contain anything that I didn't already know how to do, it just requires a greater level of control and execution. I can do them all roughly, it's just a case of polishing them. So I don't think the pattern tests are demanding anything over the top.
I can see how these will benefit. For example, too many skaters learn the rough three-turns and then continue on with those without working to hone and refine the turn. Guilty as charged over here - I have issues holding the back inside edge on the end of a forward outside three-turn, but for the Elementary patterns, holding that edge is paramount.
Australia does have the odd high level skater with great edges, sadly in international competitions they may not be marked fairly because the perception is Aussies don't skate well. Some skaters may lack the big jumps but they do have quality skating skills and will not be rewarded for them, unfortunately the component score can be subjective. I also do not think anything oz skating mum said was offensive or intended to be offensive.
Im sorry that you can't see or choose not to see what I said. It seems you are the only person who sees it the way you do.
I'm also saddened to think that you as a coach don't feel that better edge work and skating skills will improve our results much O/S as you said in a previous post. I choose to disagree
You say you know who I am thats great, I'm not hiding.
But let me tell you you don't know whats in my head, the same as I don't know what is in your head and what I or anyone can and can't learn, don't try and dumb me or anyone down by telling me I can't know something because I'm not a coach. Do I know what a forward pass is in football ... yeah .. do I play the game .. no.. am I coach of football ... no ... well how can I know when it's a forward pass .. I can see it, I can learn thats a forward pass, the same as I can see a three turn, or a rocker, or a bracket and I learn what makes it so, fortunately I spend a bit of time with Dancers so that helps, could I teach someone how to do it .. no way!! But I can see it.
It's clearly obvious that you have made up your mind to take offence where none was intended, I can't help that.
Good luck and have a great day!
I believe that you know what the different turns are, i dont believe you would be able to identify a specific turn when you see one.
But this isnt about me criticising you. This is about how i just interpreted your original statement a little different from others.
If you are a high level coach, I would actually expect a bit more professionalism in your approach to the discussion on this forum.
When you are up to your arse in alligators it is difficult to remember you were only meant to be draining the swamp.
Here's to hoping the moves in the field tests improve the skating skills of our skaters. The vast majority of our learners will not reach international competition level for whatever reason but right now most of the skaters going to international competitions do not have the skating skills to get the results they need to sustain their drive to continue to compete.
This problem starts with (and this will offend) the number of our coaches who would not be able to pass these tests themselves but are more then happy to charge $80-$90 an hour. Ice skating in Australia remains a social/casual activity where skaters training for world championships share ice with beginners toe picking their way around.
For many years Tibi Straub fought with the "establishment" to have a pathway for mature skaters to have their own tests to enable them to set goals and have the satisfaction of achievement. For years in Ice dance there has been the problem that the "competition" dances for the season have not been the test dances.
Lets hope the new tests will help parents understand that basic skating is the first "trick" a skater needs to learn, that jumping and spinning isn't skating.
To improve the international results our skaters need to spend more time exposed to the sort of training conditions skaters overseas train under- this was clearly demonstrated with our dance results at worlds this year.
I think there are many issues with Skating in Australia, I do believe that making the tests at all levels easier is NOT helping and also that the vast majority of skaters taking tests are not able to execute the required elements with any quality or ease and that coaches who charge $80 - $90 per hour should be making sure their skaters are capable of the test requirements, sadly this starts from the lowest test levels to the hightest! If skaters are not of the required standard they really should not pass the test!
Looking at Hollins Trophy results you can see that the boys are much stronger than the girls! Most of the senior men had 2A's when they were skating at the Novice level several years ago, which WAS the required jump in the Short program, now it is no longer required so no one tries it therefore, lowering the standard. Not one Junior skater landed a 2A at Hollins Trophy this year in the short program! Most of the Senior Men train for large chunks of the year in USA.
I know that it is important to keep skaters in the sport BUT just giving tests to Junior and Seniors that cannot execute a basic 2A just does not make sense, if you can pass your tests without the required jumps where is the incentive to work harder! Coaches take the money without having really done their job well, although I know a lot of parents and kids just want to be able to say they are "junior" or "Senior" and coaches are under pressure to keep everyone happy! Conditions are not great in Australia but they are good enough for skaters to get to a high novice standard with a 2A which would be the building blocks for junior and senior! To be truely successful internationally the skaters need to move overseas to have enough quality ice time, I agree with Jumpin Bean this has been well demonstrated with the recent results achieved in dance at worlds. Some Australian high level skaters have very good edges, but they are Australian and will be marked as such in International competitions as long as the component score is subjective.
As for the Icehouse, it is expensive because the Grollo group are trying to make their money back on their investment as soon as possible. As much as rink management would like to make it cheaper for skaters, they take their instructions from Grollo. Which is to the detriment of the ice sports.
When you are up to your arse in alligators it is difficult to remember you were only meant to be draining the swamp.

Kidney Disease Research Updates
Spring 2012
Brown Medicine Magazine Profiles NIDDK Director Griffin P. Rodgers
Excerpted from Brown Medicine
By Sarah Baldwin-Beneich and David Peterson
Brown Medicine magazine featured Griffin P. Rodgers, M.D., M.A.C.P., director of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, on the cover of its Fall 2011 issue. Read an excerpt from the story, "The Ambassador," below:
A hematologist by training, Rodgers first became interested in medicine growing up in the '60s and '70s in New Orleans. He excelled in math and science early on. His father taught physical education and science. But it was his mother, a public health nurse, who first exposed him to the practice and potential of medicine.
"Many of my mother's patients weren't able to get to the clinic during the work week. She'd take it upon herself to visit them at their homes during the weekend. We went to some rough neighborhoods," Rodgers recalls, laughing softly, "and she took me along as protection." He watched as she applied her nursing training and practical approaches to solve medical problems.
"I learned quite a bit this way. Her knowledge, compassion, and ability to get along with people went a long way in getting them to follow instructions, do follow-up."
Making the rounds with his mother was formative in another sense, as well: "I saw that diabetes, obesity, and kidney disease hit African Americans harder than others. This was my first exposure to the effects and interaction of genetics and the environment."

Ronald McDonald House donates to St. Mary's Guest House project
Above, Derek Kung, president of Ronald McDonald House Charities of Richmond, (far right) presents a check for $175,000 to build a pediatric wing at the St. Mary's Guest House. Pictured left to right are: Dr. Billy Lennarz, VP of medical affairs, Bon Secours Children's Services; Toni Ardabell, CEO of St. Mary's Hospital; Ilona Scanlon and Kathryn Knierim, both child life specialists at St. Mary's. Ronald McDonald House Charities of Richmond also gave $75,000 to establish three family rooms in the hospital.
"We are profoundly grateful to Ronald McDonald House Charities for these generous gifts," said Toni R. Ardabell, CEO of Bon Secours St. Mary's Hospital. "It is invaluable not only to have financial support from Ronald McDonald House Charities, but also their expertise in providing a home away from home for patient families."
The house will offer families a quiet place to relax and recharge with 14 guest rooms, two family suites and common areas. The Bon Secours Richmond Health Care Foundation has raised $2.3 million toward their $3 million goal for construction of the guest house, which is set to open its doors in late fall 2013. For details, visit http://www.bsvaf.org/guesthouse.
"RMHC is honored to be a part of the heroic efforts of Bon Secours' pediatric health care providers," said Derek W.H. Kung, president of the board of the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Richmond, VA, Inc. "We are proud to be teaming up with an organization and be part of a Richmond community that feels so passionately about the health and well-being of sick children and their families."

Thanks in part to a $10,000 gift from the Western Henrico Rotary Club, another bright pink Jeep modified to travel extremely rough terrain has been delivered to Midwives For Haiti so that more pregnant women in the quake-ravaged country will have access to prenatal care and a greater chance of surviving childbirth.
The funds were raised at the annual casino night held in February, club president Adam Cherry said. The Rotary Club also helped purchase the Virginia-based charity's first pink jeep three years ago. > Read more.

Is there an Echo in here?
'Earth to Echo' aims to become this generation's 'ET'
It's no secret that all found-footage genre movies are the same. Grab a couple of characters, give one of them a camera, and expose them to something supernatural that's content to lurk just off-screen until the last five minutes. Everything else will just fall into place.
But that formula isn't particularly family friendly, if only because that thing waiting a few feet to the left of the cast is usually plotting their violent doom.
That's what sets Earth to Echo apart from the pack. It, too, follows a group of characters armed with a camera and a tendency to encounter unknown life forms. But all those familiar parts have been rearranged just enough to make it suitable for a much younger audience. > Read more.

All of us will have a decision to make this winter: to drive or not to drive in the snow? It's hard to resist going on that errand or driving to a friend's house in bad weather. Our best advice? Stay home. Damaging your car or getting injured is never worth it. But if you must drive, we have some priceless tips that will make your winter driving much more safe this season.
•Drive like the seniors do! Most weather-related accidents happen because people aren't slowing down enough in the snow. Leave at least three times more space that usual between you and the car in front of you.
•Easy does it! Brake gently and repeatedly, rather than slamming down once for a quick stop. You'll skid less and your'e wheels won't lock up.
•Promise not to pass! Don't pass snow plows and sanding trucks-they have limited visibility and the road's probably in worse condition in front of them.
•Cruisers beware! Don't use cruise control or overdrive on icy, road, and use low gears to keep traction, especially on hills.
•Stay on the bright side: Always keep your lights on when it's snowing, even during the day.
At All-Star Driver, we see a lot of drivers simply overestimating their driving abilities or their car's ability to "weather the storm." We're all in a rush these days, and speeding comes naturally. But getting in an accident is never worth making it to Walmart on time. Even sturdy four- wheel drive vehicles can loose control when drivers push the limits on snowy and icy roads. Commit to slowing down, and being safe this holiday season!

Black and silver is a classic and sophisticated color combination to enrich the beauty of your wardrobe. A large black onyx stone is encased in a stunning overlay and twisted rope border of sterling silver. The intricate design reaches down the ring's shank, twisting and swirling all around your finger with a one-of-a-kind beauty. Perfect for eveningwear and special occasions, the ring's blend of onyx and silver is an elegant must-have addition to your collection. Ring measures 7/8" long x 3/4" wide. Made in America with gemstones from around the world.
The perfect finishing touch for any style emerges from a medley of textured silver and bright gemstones. Silver sits atop each gemstone like a crown, lending each piece a regal silhouette. Shades of rosy pink, spring green, buttery yellow, periwinkle and black offer a vivid and versatile palette.
Like all fine jewelry, Carolyn Pollack Sterling Silver Jewelry should be handled carefully. Store jewelry in a plastic bag, dry and wrapped in tissue paper, when not being worn or displayed. Clean sterling silver with a silver polishing cloth when necessary, but never subject to chlorine, silver dips, chemical solutions or ultrasonic cleaners, as these substances can cause the genuine gemstones to discolor. Never wear jewelry in a swimming pool.

iCloud.com goes live for everyone
Apple has flipped the giant switch in their giant data center and taken the beta tags off iCloud.com, the web front end for their new
sync store/push system. Head on over, enter your Apple ID, and free Mail, Calendar, Contacts, Find my iPhone, and iWork documents in the cloud, can be yours.
Sure, people have been sneaking in and checking it out for a while now, but with the wrapper officially off, no doubt more will come in for the tour.
If you've been a MobileMe user or Google user previously, we'd love to know your thoughts on Apples latest set of web app.
Tip: Thanks Sean!
There are 66 comments. Add yours.
Before you can check it out you have to have iOS 5 on your device.
I used MobileMe before, and I have to say, I think the iCloud.com webpage is awesome, its got a super simple interface, and works like a charm. I've been running iOS5 since beta 1, and all my info is there and available!
Wasn't able to move to iCloud. Still says I have to be a developer.
I found my iphone? XD lol haha but it is nice to have those utilities on the cloud
It's beenOct 12 for 17 1/2 hours here in Australia, and still no ios 5!
Mobile Me users can't get on and move their stuff over until Apple releases a Lion update and officially releases iOS5 (although that one is pretty easy to get early)
iv done it without having they requirements
Where is ios5
Logged in but it won't let me do get past there. Tells me to check the setting on my iOS5 device and my Mac OS X Lion preferences......so much for staying up until midnight.....
Same thing happened to me on my MacBook Pro.
Lion is a pre-requisite?
Tried it on my 3GS.
iCloud page opens. There are 3 choices:
- Set up iCloud on this device
- Install Find My Phone
- Install Find My Friends
Tried #1.. 404 error Page not found.
Hmmm, why would that page even appear if IOS 5 isn't installed yet?
You need to setup the Lion sync software, but they point to a page that isn't live yet - http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup
Just 5 more minutes and we should be able to download iOS 5, hopefully they don't make us wait until 10am (pacific time) to download it, since that's the time that Apple usually likes to do their events.
I need iOS 5 NAO. I want to get first dibs on @me.com user names.
mine says 'to sign in, move this mobileme account to icloud' :(
I guess they will make us wait until 10am.
Wouldn't let me move my mobile.me account - probably because I'm in Australia? Anyway, NOT live for everyone...
Mine asks me if i want to convert over to iCloud..i click YES, but when i log into MobileMe, it tells me iCloud is still in Beta form.
Same here. Just tried.
Minor detail but you can't yet convert your mobile me account to icloud - so it's not really available yet :(
Really? I've just logged in on icloud.com with my mobile.me login and it went straight in without any msgs. I can see the dasboard but only find my iphone works as there's a msgs prompting me to upgrade to ios5 to use the other services....
Are you on MAC or something else.?? I get the same results when trying to use iCloud.com... It let's me login but says I need upgrade to Lion os IOS 5... I was assured by APPLE on Aug. 29 that Snow Leopard (the very LAST version) would be able to talk to iCloud.... W T F !!!????
Can you use iCloud on a PC?
I tried to go to the website using IE and it says 'unsupported browser'. I am at work so I'll try with Google Chrome and Safari (installed on PC) when I get home... hmm, might be time to back a MacBook Air!!
Probably won't use it for much yet. Google is much better. Backups to cloud would be incomplete & require me to pay for more space anyways.
I Imagine Apple will have a lot of confused customers though.
Nope. Not for everyone. Yet.
I never understood what the iCloud is?
You and millions like you. Apple has a challenge with this.
Could we define "everyone" please? So far I've not found anyone who is a current Mobile Me user who has been able to switch over their account. My guess is you need iOS 5 on your device prior to conversion.
Ahh..feels like the typical Apple #@$* tease...they play and we wait
Current MobileMe user - successfully migrated to iCloud.
IOS5 isn't going to hit the uk until 5pm :(
7am on east coast and still can not convert over to iCloud. So someone please explain what "iCloud.com goes live for everyone" means.
Just setup my iCloud and it worked even though I didn't have mobileme or iOS5 yet.
Hold your horses peeps - you'll need to wait until 10am PST 1pm EST & 6pm BST when iOS 5 is released...
THEN you can access & convert as required (apart from Europe who possibly won't be able to convert Me.com to iCloud just yet)
I'm a MobileMe user. I attempted to login and it directs you to the MobileMe website. After you log into there, a message comes up saying that you can't switch over at this time that it's just for developers.
Tells me i need to set it up in settings... so it's not usable till lion 10.7.2 and ios5 are live.
and TiPb jumps the gun again. its not available yet !
I downloaded the iOS 5 GM and created a new Apple ID from my iPhone last night and it's working for me, except iCloud is not connecting with my Mac yet but is with the iPhone.
People it's not the end of the world just wait Apple said october 12 not an exact timr so technically apple have till 11:59 pm of cupertino time to put everything live! If doesnt work yet go to see youtube, go to the mall, turn on hBO or do something with ur life!!!!!
my stuff is all in Google too, what would be the point for us really, other than just to check it out.
I disagree. It is the end of the world. Goodbye crule world!
Hey I'm on the other side now and they have IS 5 and everything just works!
iCloud was build essentially FOR the iOS 5 and OS X Lion.
Wouldn't it make more sense for Apple to stagger it's deployments of iOS5 in various countries? Surely it will be lighter on the traffic if each country got it at 9am local time otherwise you're gonna have everyone hitting the servers at the same time!
SO.... This looks a bit dubious so far... AFTER I log on to iCloud.com, I get the message that I either have to upgrade to LION or IOS 5.. WTF??
I was told about 6 weeks ago that iCloud would be available for Snow Leopard 10.6.8 upon arrival...????
Get a message that icloud.com is not compatible with Internet Explorer 8 and to upgrade to latest version....Really? Explorer 8 hasn't been out that long has it?!?
COOL! I cant wait to start using it.
i'm running the iOS 5 GM and when i go to set up on this device it gives me 404 error page not found. It worked when i signed in on Lion though
Old MobileMe user here- 25GB!!! They credited my account and bumped me to 25GB
This is ridiculous....1:07pm EST and still no iOS 5
It's just gone live for "normal" peeps....OS 5 is on it's way! ;)
iOS 5 is now live!!!!
The migration process for MobileMe users will move Mail and Calendars to iCloud, and MobileMe users will continue to be able to use Gallery, iDisk and iWeb publishing through June 30, 2012 even though those services are not making the transition to iCloud. A number of syncing services that had been available for MobileMe, including Dashboard Widgets, Dock Items, Keychain, Mail Accounts, Mail Rules, Signatures, and Smart Mailboxes, and Mac OS X Preferences, will become unavailable immediately upon moving to iCloud.
How do you keep all this other stuff sync'd???
Something that has always been a pain for me with Google Calendar is the shared public calendars not syncing to the iPhone. For example, I'm on a couple College Football schedules, and can see them on Google calendar and not on the iPhone.
I'm hoping this has some better way of dealing with that (although not holding my breath on it)
Ok i have a question about iCoud... with all of the carriers now limiting the usage... how will iCloud play into this... if i stream music on a long trip wont that use tons of GB of data? since i am streaming from the cloud it has to be using data somehow... Right?
I can't access iCloud using the older browsers at work. I can't install the latest browser. This is a BIG caveat! If I knew I wouldn't be able to access my e-mails at work, I wouldn't have made the switch. Ideally, you want to be able to check you e-mails ANYWHERE!
It's a problem when you pay for iCloud and it doesn't work I've been trying for two weeks to get to work unfortunately doesn't seem to yet. I'm wondering why Apple is releasing things in beta form- not ready yet!
I've just done my 100th iphone screen repair in a matter of weeks. Price? £60

March 23, 2010
Dear Stakeholders,
Please save the date for Thursday, March 25, from 12:00 to 1:00 p.m., when I will host a special Internet Webcast - an Open Line Meeting with the Secretary - to discuss the One DSS reorganization, the status of the DSS Budget and the upcoming 2010 Legislative Session.
We will be using a new technology at DSS for this virtual meeting, which will allow DSS staff and stakeholders from across the state to come together at one time to discuss the changes that are underway for our agency. This new technology will allow me to speak to you live and will provide an open line of communication so that I may address your questions and concerns. Following my presentation, I will field your questions through the program's chat and video feature. This is a brand new use of technology and an example of how we can make our work together more efficient.
Tomorrow you will recieve an invitation to register for the meeting; Registration is required in order to participate. Because the system's capacity is limited to 3,000 participants, we strongly encourage groups to view the presentation at a single workstation or in a conference room using a projector so that we can make the most of this technology and provide access to as many participants as possible.
For those who are unavailable on Thursday, the meeting will be recorded and available for viewing on the Web within 30 minutes of the end of the session.
I look forward to meeting with all of you for an informative session that will give you an opportunity to provide input. This meeting represents an exciting step toward modernizing the way DSS operates and communicates more efficiently.

What type of furniture is easy to remove and move around a house
We tend to take our furniture for granted until the time comes when we have to buy some new ones or we have to move them around. We don't really think about them that much. But when we have to decide on what type of furniture to acquire and if removalists are required, there are a couple of things that we need to consider.
Types of Furniture- There are several ways of classifying furniture. The most common would be by the type of material used in the construction or manufacture. Then there is through the kind of use that we have for them. Here are the different types of furniture according to their uses:
Seating-Sofas usually take up the focal point in the living room. They should be comfortable and should be sturdy. Since they take a central position, they should also look good so they would not bring down the look of the place. Sofas can be made according to different styles and they can range from very heavy to light. Their unwieldy size however makes it impossible for a single person to carry them around.
Media- This type of furniture is rather new and they are all designed for holding various devices of electronics such as television sets, computers and home entertainment systems. Usually made from wood they are easy to move around on their own, but when loaded with electronic devices, you wouldn't be able to budge them.
Accents- These are the small pieces of furniture that are used for adding a certain touch to a spot in a room. They include coffee tables and side tables. Most of the times these pieces are also made from wood and since these are quite small they are easy to move around.
Bedroom- These are the furniture that belong to the bedroom. These would include beds and dressers and others. The bed is one of the most difficult articles of home furnishing to move around. In fact, it pretty much stays in the same place.
Storage- Cabinets and shelves are mostly made from wood. Some of them are fixed so they cannot be moved around.
As to the different types of furniture according to the material used in its construction, wooden furniture are still the easiest to move around because they are a lot lighter than those made from other materials that are used for furniture construction such as metal. Plastic or vinyl furniture might be lighter but few people use those. You can find more about removalists on Oneflare.

Windsor Substation
Posted by Bruce Robinson in youth , Windsor , technology , recreation , public safety , protest , planning , parks , open space , Health , families , environment , energy , current events , community , children , business , activism
A power struggle in Windsor is pitting homeowners against PG&E, whose engineers have concluded that the best place for a new electrical substation lies in the town's south center area. The people already living nearby think that's a very bad idea.
Homeowner Rosemary Olson describes the reaction she got when she shared the PG&E substation plans with an electrical analyst who has no connection to the project.
Another issue with potential health impact, says Dr. Wayne Freenman, is exposure to the constant electro-magnetic fields that would be present at the substation.

Archaeologists employ material culture to study our human past. A major in Archaeology will equip you with the intellectual and practical skills to gather, analyse and interpret primary archaeological evidence in order to answer questions about prehistoric and historic societies.
Study plan
A major in Archaeology requires 36 senior credit points from the unit of study table including ARCA2635 and at least 6 credit points at 3000 level.
Junior units of study (1000 level):
In these units you will first engage with a broad overview of the evolution of humans, both physical and social, and will then investigate the emergence of major civilisations of the Old World. You will learn how to use archaeological evidence as a tool to reconstruct the human past. No prior knowledge of archaeology or ancient history is assumed.
Progression to senior level units of study usually requires completion of two junior level units of study in Archaeology, but you may replace one of these with one of the following:
ANHS1600 Foundations for Ancient Greece
ANHS1601 Foundations for Ancient Rome
ANTH1001 Cultural Difference: An Introduction
ARHT1001 Art and Experience
HSTY1089 Australia: Conflict and Transformation
Senior-intermediate units of study (2000 level):
A major in Archaeology requires the completion of ARCA2635 Explanation and Theory in Archaeology. This compulsory unit will underpin your senior studies by introducing you to the main themes and approaches of enquiry that form the basis of archaeological study such as cultural systems, gender and ethnoarchaeology.
When choosing your 2000 level units, you should consider what balance you want between archaeological skills-based study (e.g., Field Methods, Digital Methods, Advanced Archaeology Practicum, Archaeological Principles and Practice), thematic Archaeology topics (e.g., Archaeology in Film, Global Dispersal of Humans, Mobility and the Sedentary Transition) and regionally specific units that include Asian, Australian, Classical and Middle Eastern Archaeology.
Senior-advanced units of study (3000 level):
To complete a major in Archaeology requires completion of at least six credit points at 3000 level. To enrol in 3000 level units, students must have completed at least 18 credit points at 2000 level including ARCA2635.
All students who fulfil the requirements for entry are encouraged to apply for honours.

For so many Christians, "O Come, Emmanuel" was sung from choral sanctuaries and blasted from organ pipes at the back of the church this past weekend on the first Sunday of Advent. I'm going to guess that very few services featured such a stirring pairing of piano and cello.

Nice Dress Shoe
The fit is excellent, the workmanship is excellent, I wear these shoes in a professional office and I will wear them with formal dress, and with a suit and tie and I could not be more satisfied.
Excellent review! We are so glad you find these to be of great quality and are able to wear them with all of your formal attire.
Product Size Rating:Sized as Expected
How do you most use this product?:Dress
Great shoe once you get the right size
I usually wear a 9.5" and I saw all the descriptions about the shoes being larger than expected, so I ordered a 9". I had to return it for an 8.5" but now it fits well, looks great, and is very comfortable to wear.
We are so glad you were able to find the perfect fit and find them to be very comfortable. Thank you for he tip on sizing. We appreciate your feedback and your review.
Product Size Rating:Larger than Expected
Excellent quality and value
I was initially hesitant to buy "dress" shoes from a company better known for casual boat shoes, but it turned out that this was the best shoe purchase I made in the past 12 months. The shoes fit exactly to size (note: I wear fairly heavy socks with my dressy shoes) and are stylish and comfortable, even during the first week, when most shoes need a wearing-in period. I've been purchasing a lot of Johnston & Murphy shoes over the past few years, but these seem to be holding up better than any of those. Overall opinion: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. I don't wear boat shoes (no yacht!) but I'll definitely be shopping again for more Sebago dress shoes.
Thank you for the great recommendation on these dress shoes. We look forward to your future dress shoe purchase. We appreciate your feedback on the fit and quality of the Salem!

I went to a concert tonight, where the Phoenix Symphony played the Planet suite by Holst. At the same time they projected on a screen above the orchestra, digital images of the planets, obtained from NASA. It was great. It also made me think of past skates to the Planets.
I love Usova-Zhulin's skate to 'Mars' at the 1989 world championships
Babilonia - Gardner had used Mars as part of their 1979 worlds LP, which won them the championship.
I was wondering who else had skated to music from Planets, and not just Mars. I think Mao Asada skated to Jupiter, if I remember correct.
4CC exhibition:
Fumie Suguri skating to Jupiter:
Torville-Dean (skating to Venus)


text: I was wondering if there was possibly an issue with the equipment as well. It does seem odd that both girls went down within minutes of each other on the same set of bars. It doesn't mean that the spotlights were a good idea, but there have been lots of other exhibitions with spotlights without having injuries like that.

Most Campus Commuters
Sharing a shoebox-sized dorm room with a relative stranger is not part of the college experience for all students. At a few of the universities on this list, commuting is the only option, as some urban schools and several rural schools don't offer on-campus housing. Students at many of the other schools listed below may opt to live at home and avoid costly room and board fees or share off-campus housing for a little more space and independence. These colleges reported the highest percentage of their students who were commuters for the 2012-2013 academic year.

Ghana's healthcare sector was the topic of discussion during a visit paid to the country by ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants), led by Mark Millar, member of ACCA's council.
Mark met, among others, the Honourable Rojo Mettle Nunoo, Ghana's Deputy Minister of Health; Dr Kwabena Opoku Adusei, President of the Ghana Medical Association;Ramatau Ude Umanta, Finance Director of the Ghana Health Service; and Dr Anthony Seddoh, Investment Advisor to the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and former Head of Policy Planning Monitoring and Evaluation of the Ministry of Health.
Jamil Ampomah, ACCA director-Sub Saharan Africa, said: 'The aim of the visit was to strengthen our ties with stakeholders in this continent by meeting key professionals face-to-face to have an open discussion about healthcare in Ghana and what finance professionals such as ourselves, can do to help improve it here.
'Together we can promote public interest in healthcare and think of ideas together to make the healthcare system here more robust, and efficient, despite the issues relating to finances.'
The visit between 10-14 September, which included a conference in Zambia, was also used to launch ACCA's first report about global healthcare called Global perspectives on health challenges.
The report contains interviews with ACCA members around the world who are involved in the health sector, talking about what the healthcare systems there are doing for the countries and the challenges the systems face.
Sharon Cannaby, ACCA's head of health sector policy, said: 'The report focuses on the value finance and non-finance professionals give to the health sector and what our members think are the biggest challenges for their countries' healthcare system.
'It was clear when interviewing them that the majority felt the ageing population and decreasing number of births to keep a steady flow of those of working age to sustain the ageing population, is a key factor in the challenges faced.
'Coupled with an increase in lifestyle illnesses, diseases and conditions, the report suggests it is challenging to satisfy the demand from a consumer driven society in both developed and developing countries.'
