Masters Final: Bilbao part officially opened, tournament resumes tomorrow
On Wednesday the second leg of the Grand Slam Masters Final was officially opened in Bilbao, Spain. Five of the six players were present - Vassily Ivanchuk, who was robbed on Monday in Sau Paulo, arrives in Bilbao on Wednesday and has informed the organizers that he wants to play his game against Nakamura on Thursday, 'without privileges'.

Bilbao opening ceremony
Today the opening ceremony of the Masters Final's second half was held at the Melia Hotel in Bilbao. Present were the Councillor Delegate for the Euskera Area, Youth and Sports of the Bilbao City Hall, Sabin Anunzita, Technical Director of the tournament Juan Carlos Fernández and five of the six participants of the Final - Vassily Ivanchuk couldn't make it in time.
Like last year, the venue in Bilbao will be the Alhóndiga Bilbao, an old wine storehouse designed by Ricardo Bastida (1909). It's a 43.000m² space opened in May 2010, aiming to become the city's new engine of leisure and culture. And like in Sao Paulo, the players will be playing their games in a soundproof glass booth in full view of the public. This glass room measures 8 x 8 m and is 3.5m high, weighing 8 tonnes.
Players' reactions
At the opening ceremony the players were asked about their chances in the remainder of the tournament, and about their opinion of the football scoring system. Here's the video from the organizers, and below a transcript of what the players answered.
Magnus Carlsen:
Truthfully I'm not at all concerned with who will win the tournament, really. I'm just trying to do my best and try to win it myself, so... that's about all I can say. Of course now Ivanchuk is in the lead but anything can happen. And I think especially in situations like this the Bilbao scoring system with three points for a win and one for a draw is interesting, because it makes the tournament more dynamic and it's easier to catch up from a deficit.
Hikaru Nakamura:
OK, I think I have to agree with Magnus quite a bit in regards to the tournament. I think all of us are very strong, we're all very close in points, so pretty much anything can happen. I know for myself I certainly would like to win this tournament but it's gonna come down to who has the best nerves and who plays the best here in the final playing rounds. As far as the points scoring system is concerned, I think actually with the three points for the win and one for the draw, it makes it a lot more exciting, because certain players can lose some games, but if you win a couple of games at the end it suddenly all turns around very quickly. I'm not sure what to think of the scoring system overall but for this event in particular it keeps it much more exciting till the final round. Thank you.
Levon Aronian:
I think this tournament is kind of really spectacular and very important for the world of chess. Of course I guess any player would want to be the winner here. Since I think the tournament started not so bad for me, less than I expected, but I still think I'll be one of the players who'll be trying to compete. Regarding to the second question: I'm not a big fan of this but if some people like it... if in the opinion of the organizers the three points for a win makes the chess more interesting, I'm glad to be a part of it.
Paco Vallejo replied in Spanish, so what follows is our translation.
Ivanchuk is the leader with a certain margin and that's why I think he's relatively the favourite. For me it didn't go so well, I haven't had much luck but the games were good fights and I'm going to try to recover a bit here. Regarding the three-point rule: I think that strictly speaking it's unjust, but also more interesting. Perhaps sometimes we need to sacrifice a bit of 'devine justice' to get to a tournament that's more interesting for the spectators, more dynamic, more fun.
Vishy Anand, who also replied in Spanish:
Regarding the tournament, well, there are five more rounds to go and so it's difficult to make a prognosis, especially taking into account the system of the Bilbao rule. So everything is still uncertain and I think there will be a big fight until the end.
Photographic Exhibition
Coinciding with the tournament, metro passengers can view the history of this great sporting event through images. A photographic exhibition entitled "Bilbao mueve pieza" (Bilbao moves pieces) traces the evolution of the tournament since 1999 when it was in its infant stages as a modest competition organized by a group of chess fans from Bilbao, to 2010 when it definitively became one of the foremost chess events in the world. The exhibition, made up of a total of 12 large panels measuring 2.31 by 1.3 metres, will be in place from October 6 at the Indautxu (Urquijo exit) and Moyúa (Diputación exit) stations.
The photographic retrospective shows the transformation of the tournament from a modest chess festival promoted by the Bilbao E4 Chess Sporting Club until becoming the Grand Slam Final in 2008 and consolidating its expansion as an even more internation franchise in Shanghai in 2010. In the 36 photographs comprising the exhibit, stellar chess moments are captured, such as the blind duel between Veselin Topalov and Judit Polgar; the historic battle between World Champion Viswanathan Anand and the number one player in the world ranking, Magnus Carlsen (a duel that will again take place in this 4th edition); or the visit of such mythical former World Champions as Anatoly Karpov and Boris Spassky, stars of many of the most significant matches in chess history.

Grand Slam Masters Final 2011 | Round 5 Standings (classical)
Naka answer is really agressive ! Don't think Carlsen liked that ! it's gonna be hot ...
I do not understand Nakaniki, once he compared himself with Fischer and now with MC.
Where does Nakaniki compare himself with Karlson? I missed that part I'm afraid.
But I do like the answers of Aronian and Pons who dare give a genuine valuation of the football scoring system (unfair but possibly entertaining). You'd expect more players to do so especially the ones who complain about fair chances in other tournaments and cycles.
Isn't it obvious? Nakamura never compared himself to Carlsen. Neither did he compare himself to Fischer. Just figments of anti-fans' imagination. Heh heh!
I should be mistaken this time coz I read a lot between the lines.
Between the lines is an empty space so whatever you are reading there is a product of your mind and nothing else.
Most of the matter and energy of the universe came from the empty space(dark matter and dark energy).
Again, most of the wight of the proton came from the empty space also (Nobel Phys. 2004). What we can read between the lines (empty space, as y said) makes sense.
Compiler programs however just read the lines (as y do).
I love the universal game of chess. But I think it is decadent that this tournament is done on two sides of the globe. The needed airplanes for this are polluting our precious earth. Probably has to do with the Holy Money that seems to be more precious to some people. Am I the only one who thinks this??
No doubt the games will be much more interesting than this press conference.
What a bore!
That's the word, unfair. This scoring system makes it possible to win the tournament scoring +3 (6.5 chess points) in front of someone with +4 (7 chess points). How?
+4 =6 gives 18 football points. (7 points, +4)
+5 =3 -2 gives 18 football points (6.5, +3)
+6 =1 -3 gives 19 football points (6.5, +3)
If it wasn't the main scoring system it would make a great tie-break. In my opinion, in chess tournaments, +4 should always beat +3
Fair or unfair?
If you like to play solid, not taking to much risk and wait for your opporunities to come to you, you will characterize the rules as unfair.
On the other hand, if you like to play aggresively and take some risk, you will say the rules are fair.
And from an entertaining point of view: no doubt more interesting with these rules.
Well you can get even more crazy. They can consider giving no points to either players for a draw. So 1 pt for win and thats it. From one perspective, a draw is as good as loss, so may be they will push. From another perspective, draw is slightly better than loss since you make sure your opponent also get 0 pts. But in a tournament say of 10 rounds somebody who scores 2 wins and 8 losses (thats -6) wins over someone who wins 1 game and 9 draws. So people might sacrifice left and right to win because who care if you draw or lose. So is that even better for spectators. No its just crazy. The football scoring is just a milder version of my proposed craziness.
1867 Paris used exactly this craziness.
Here are some different systems used in the history:
1862 London
1867 Paris
1873 Vienna
1883 London
1901 Monte Carlo
What would happen if they gave 0 for a loss, 1 for a draw and only 2.5 points for a win; would that work out?
Well, may be the system is not completely stupid. But when in the tournaments like this they use the number of wins as the first tie-break that is really rediculous, since they penalize those who have more classical points!!!
What are you talking about?
The tie-breaks are:
1. "classical" score.
2. Head-to-head
3. Koya
4. Sonneborn-Berger
If tied for 1st, there will be two blitz games, and if necessary armageddon.
Maybe he was talking about London which does have double Bilbao rules: football scoring and most wins as (first) tiebreaker - hence a tie-creater then becomes a tiebreaker. If his near-namesake VladK had beaten Carlsen last year (which was the logical result of their game), he would still have finished in second place because Carlsen's +4-3 would have been "better" than Kramnik's +3=3-1.
Which is exactly why tweaking the scoring system by reducing the weight of wins to 2.5 would be such a good idea. There is still the incentive to win because two draws are not worth quite as much as a win BUT you don't end with a ridiculous result.
With such scoring, +3=3-1 will edge out +4=0-3 as it should.

A brief note on sea salt sprays:
They can be very drying since they are filled with salt. If you already have dry hair, be sure to mix a leave in conditioner in with your routine as to not further dry out your hair.
You can make your hair do anything and it always looks fabulous! My hair is curly, but I am going to try this on my daughter who has my husband's thick hair with just a little bend in it. Now, I just need to find a salon that sells Aquage products. My salon only sells pureology.
ReplyDeleteThis tutorial is so great! My hair is thin, but I have a lot of it (at least that's what every hairstylist I've ever gone to has told me) and it flips in two different directions on the sides of my head while staying pancake-flat on top. Every time I hear about someone using a sea salt spray, they say you just spray it in and it's like magic, but it's so helpful to see it fully styled! Now to find where they sell Aquage...I've never seen it in any salon here in MN.
ReplyDeleteThis is basically what my hair does naturally. Some parts are almost straight while others are neat ringlet curls so it is always a challenge to make my whole head look cohesive. I usually use a diffuser and dry my hair upside down while scrunching it up a little, which made me curious if using a diffuser would work on the girls trying this that don't have that texture naturally?
I'm also from MN and have not had any luck finding Aquage at salons around here!
Love this look! I've been doing this a lot lately.. I have curly hair and rather than spend time using curl creme and diffusing, I've been using a salty spray, drying it with the diffuser half way and then letting it air dry! I really like Davines Sea Salt Primer, it smells amazing and I only have to use a little bit. Wonderful stuff, those salt sprays!
I have a question about the quick blow dry stuff. I have fairly dry hair and I'm wondering if the product would be ok for curly, highlighted, dry hair. It sounds like the best idea ever, it takes waaaay too long to dry my hair!
Also, love your hair tutorials! I wear my hair styled in the half up ballerina bun all the time and get lots of compliments :)
My hair is naturally very fine, thin, and soft as well. In fact, I hate my hair on the days I wash it (which, ha.. is like twice a week), and for the longest time just let it be soft, fluffy baby chick hair until it got oily so I could use some dry shampoo. But I just started using Oscar Blandi's texturizing spray for the first day of washing my hair, and it gives the texture I want without making my hair feel dirty!
ReplyDeleteKate--Really enjoy your blog! Found you through pinterest looking up hairstyles and have ended up exlporing your other topics as well.
I just had time to read your entry on 1/10 and wanted to thank you for your honesty. As a christian women struggling with infertility myself; I know this is a very hard journey. I didn't have time to read all your comments, so apologize if this has been mentioned to you already. There is a AMAZING online Christian support group/website called Hannahsprayer.org. There is also a book w/ it. Praying for continued peace on your journey.
Oh my word...THANK YOU! I needed this tutorial so badly. On another note, is it odd that my 3 year old son knows you by name when he hears your voice? Mommy must be watching a lot of Kate videos. ;) God Bless you and yours!
ReplyDeleteAs a redhead, I can tell you that growing up as a redhead I would've wished for ANY other hair color than red. However, now that I am an adult, I have come to embrace my red hair....just as it has started fading to a more auburn brown....now what I want is the bright vibrant copper color I had in my youth!!(and a hair stylist who can give it to me, but alas I always end up with a red based color, not the golden orange color I want...sigh).
ReplyDeleteA girlfriend and I were bonding this weekend at Sephora and discovered we both go to your blog for hair styling tutorials. She mentioned trying out Aquage and liking it a lot, now I find myself scoping out a salon where I can get some too. We both grew as tomboys and really appreciate what you are doing to help us girls out by sharing your knowledge, thanks Kate! :)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I love you! My hair texture looks very similar to yours, and I've been doing the scrunch-and-dry thing this winter on days when I want to do my hair quickly. It never has enough curl, and just ends up looking frizzy. Today, I did it like I usually do but then tried your messy curling method, and wow. It's exactly the finishing touch my hair needed! Thanks so much for the suggestion. And by the way, all I used was a curling mousse, but I really want to see what happens if I added a sea salt spray. Have you ever made your own?
ReplyDeleteThank u, thank u, thank u!!!! My hair is thick and straight with some bend to it. I have tried soooo many times to get a textured look and it has never turned out great. I can't wait to try this because the "beachy" look is one of my faves but I've never been able to get it quite right! Also, I did the mini part hair style today and got compliments on it! Thanks for all your hard work and help!! :)
ReplyDeleteAnother gorgeous style. Just catching up on your posts and read " the one that is hard to write" ..... I will pray for you as you walk this through - I walked a similar path and as I sought His word he revealed that He wasn't saying "no" to me - just "Not Yet". I went on to have 3 children. It can feel a long hard path of longing, but you are asking for something that is good and pure and your Father loves to give His children good gifts! Bless you Kate. I will pray that this year will be the year of your heart's desires! Xx
ReplyDeleteLovely! For those of us that already have super thick hair, would you recommend a substitute product to use rather than the thickening spray gel? Or should I just skip that step altogether?
ReplyDeleteI love this! Also, loveeeeee your color! What color formulas do you currently have in it???
ReplyDeleteLove this tutorial! I can't wait to try it. I have used several of your tutorials to fix my hair. On Saturday I used the one where you put it in a little half up bun and then divide in two sides and kind of wrap around the bun. I just went to a basketball game and didn't have much time to get ready, but I felt so pulled together. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say that you've got a WONDERFUL set of tutorials!! I sell hair accessories for a living, and I've shared your blog on my facebook:
Just wondering why you didn't use a diffuser to blow dry? Do you not like them or just didn't have one around?
ReplyDeleteI love this! Especially the salt spray. I grew up going to the beach in California and there's nothing better than beach day hair! I love that someone thought to bottle it!
I have a hard time finding Aquage too...is there a website?
Thanks for another great tutorial.
Ok, I tried this this morning and WOW! I'm impressed. I always have faith in you, but I have to admit I was leery about this one! I didn't have the products you used, so I improvised and used my typical Argan Oil and didn't comb through, just used fingers and scrunched. Then after drying I curled as you shown in the tutorial, added hairspray, and finished off with some Bed Head Foxy Curls Contour Cream. I LOVE THIS LOOK! And soo easy! I was 20 minutes early to work! Thank you again for your dedication and bravery it takes to do everything with The Small Things Blog world! Bless you my dear lady!
ReplyDeleteKate your a ROCKSTAR! I have super frizzy dry "ethnic hair" as my stylist says, and I have been using a flat iron for 7 years now so I can have normal hair like everyone else. Once I have it straight I'm lost. I don't know how to style it, for 25 years I had hair I just couldn't do anything with. I now have a cut a lot like yours, and your videos have taught me how to have the hair I never had but ALWAYS wanted. It's been life changing because it changed the way I feel about my self and that is huge! Thank you for all your blogs, and videos!!! XOXO ~Camie~
ReplyDeleteAbout how long does it take you just blow My hair seems similar to yours and sometimes i think i dont spend enough time on that step. (I was diag with infertility 35 years ago, went thru 10 years of all things baby making, then adopted thru an open adoption agency and now have 2 daughters who are 24 and 20. My thoughts are with you on wherever your journey takes you. )
ReplyDeleteYay for redheads! It is nice to see that people actually WANT my color hair. I hated my red hair growing up but love it now. Every time I try aquage, my hair looks and feels dirty and heavy- what am I doing wrong? Thank you for all your tutorials; you're truly the best! And the fact you love God, makes you even more awesome. xo
A combination of Bumble and bumble.'s Surf Spray and Texture Hair (Un)dressing creme will do essentially the same thing that Aquage's sea spray accomplishes. They also have a Thickening hairspray that works wonders! You can get all of those products in a kit (plus a shine spray!) at Sephora, if it's still available. The full-size products are always available at Sephora or on Bb.'s website! Hope that helps some of you who can't get your hands on Aquage. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Kate! I tried this today without the spray gel and was able to get alot of texture! My hair has a little wave to it that usually frizzes when I've tried to do this in the past. I did get a little frizz and need to work on getting my hair NOT to look like it's slightly wet, but I'll definitely be doing this again! Thanks@
ReplyDeleteAHH! I tried this last night (w/o the salt spray b/c I didn't have any). I wanted to see if my hair would look decent - and it was adorable! Then I slept on it, thinking I'd have to just put it up b/c the curls would all fall (like they usually do). AND.... I awoke to curls! I can't tell you how excited I am - I can finally have cute, trendy hair that doesn't take two hours! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the products that you use, I use the sea salt spray all the time!!! This look is what I try and get every day... but it never turns out that good!! Now I know I should dry it (I hate drying my hair simply because it takes so long), and use the curling iron a little!! Thanks for the tutorial, it was great!! It looks so cute on you, love the blog!
I haven't been on your blog in a while and just came back and haven't been able to leave (let's just say you're giving me reason to procrastinate!). I love this style. You are a rock star. I love your blog and tutorials because you are so real and genuine and it comes across as a real person offering advice that real women can actually relate to. You're amazing, talented and beautiful. Thanks, and keep it up. God bless!
(But I do have a question...how long does it take you on average to get ready every day? )
I used this tutorial this morning and loved the results, however no matter how good it looks in the morning.. by lunch time I feel like it's dry and flat looking. Almost Piece-y looking. Any tips for what I could put in to keep it from dryness? I do commute everyday and am forced to wear hats and scarves!!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe I have never heard of this blog before - where have you been all my life? I love wearing my hair curly, but I don't know what barrel size to use or a good method to use. I have curly hair, but usually straighten the top section before I curl it because it's so frizzy-help! I haven't looked through the whole site yet, but I'd love to see a tutorial on basic curling of your hair!

ReplyDeleteHi Kate - I wanted to let you know how amazing I think you are. I have nasty disgusting wavy hair. It's not straight. It's not curly. It's horrible. It looks pretty good wet, but once it dries naturally it is a hot mess. I've used the method in this video several times now and it works amazingly! My hair looks so good. I used the exact products you used because I wanted to be sure to get it exactly right. It was so nice to be able to do something with my hair that didn't require straightening or curling. I am so grateful for your tutorials. You are such a blessing to all of us.
Love this!
Problem is, whenever I blow dry my hair (post conditioning and applying moroccan oil as serum)it seems to become frizzy and look untidy. It's never sleek and smooth! Any idea why? I live in Mumbai which is pretty humid but that doesn't usually mess with my hair. I have limp hair too :(

Paquito d'Rivera
Paquito d'Rivera
Cuba-born and New York-based saxophonist and clarinet player Paquito D'Rivera has balanced a career in Latin jazz with commissions as a classical composer and appearances with symphony orchestras. Classical New Jersey wrote, "whether playing Bach or post-bop, D'Rivera's mastery of the instruments and [his] expressive capability is unquestionable." D'Rivera inherited his understanding of music from his father, Tito, a classical saxophonist and conductor. At the age of five, he began being tutored in musical theory by his father. Within a year, he was playing well enough to be paid as a musician. By the age of seven, he became the youngest musician to endorse a musical instrument (Selmer saxophones). Three years later, he performed with the National Theater Orchestra of Havana. Although he initially played soprano saxophone, D'Rivera switched to the alto after teaching himself to play via the book Jimmy Dorsey Saxophone Method: A School of Rhythmic Saxophone Playing. Strengthening his knowledge of music and playing techniques, D'Rivera began studying at the Havana Conservatory of Music in 1960. In 1965, he became a featured soloist with the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra. After playing with the Cuban Army Band, he joined pianist Chu Chu Valdez to found the Orchestra Cubana de Musica Moderna, and served as the band's conductor for two years. In 1973, he joined eight members of the Orchestra Cubana de Musica Moderna to form Irakere. The group, which fused jazz, rock, classical, and traditional Cuban music, became the first post-Castro Cuban group to sign with an American record label. Along with the band, D'Rivera toured the world and Irakere became a top-rated jazz ensemble. In 1979, the group joined American jazz and rock performers for a music festival, Havana Jam, that was recorded and released the following year. In 1981, D'Rivera defected from Cuba and moved to the United States. Before long, he was playing with such American musicians as Dizzy Gillespie, David Amram, and Mario Bauza. According to Bauza, D'Rivera is "the only musician I know on the scene playing the real Latin jazz, all others are playing Afro-Cuban jazz." D'Rivera's debut solo album, Blowin', released in June 1981, was followed by Mariel a year later. Time magazine wrote, "the bopped-up, romantic, salty and sensuous jazz that he makes recognizes no real political boundary. It has its roots equally in the hothouse Latin rhythms of his homeland and in the high flying horns of Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, and Lee Konitz." In 1988, D'Rivera was invited to become a charter member of Gillespie's 15-piece all-star group, the United Nations Orchestra. The same year, he was a guest soloist with the National Symphony Orchestra for their world premier performance of Roger Kellaway's David Street Blues at the John F. Kennedy Center. He continued to be involved with a variety of projects. In addition to performing with the Paquito D'Rivera Big Band, the Paquito D'Rivera Quintet, a chamber music group, Triangulo, and a calypso and salsa band, the Caribbean Jazz Project, he began to accept commissions to compose for chamber groups and orchestras. In 1989, he composed "New York Suite" for the Gerald Danovich Saxophone Quartet, and five years later, he composed "Aires Tropicales" for the Aspen Wind Quintet. The piece has subsequently been performed by at least four quintets.

A Better Bone Bridge
By James Keough
Whenever a broken bone heals, someone's bound to tell you that it's stronger than before. But that's not the case when an accident or surgery creates a gap that requires a bone graft. Then the new bone forms mostly on the surface of the implant, leaving the center hollow and weak. Until now, that is. Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology have found a way to fill a gap with solid new bone by making a temporary bridge out of an unlikely mix of things: cement, a biodegradable mesh, a patient's own bone cells, and extracts from seaweed and crustacean shells.
How does it work? The mesh provides a rebar-like structure that reinforces the cement, which is made from calcium phosphate (a mineral found in bone), and the shells yield chitosan, a biopolymer that makes the cement stronger. The bone cells get mixed right into the cement. Normally that would kill them, but the researchers first coat the cells with a natural polymer found in seaweed. Once in place, this mixture hardens enough to close the gap. Then the seaweed polymer dissolves, and the bone cells start to grow in the space left behind. And because the new bone growth occurs throughout the bridge, it is stronger than traditional grafts.

New York has become the first state to dramatically stiffen its gun laws after last month's shooting at a Connecticut elementary school. Zack Fink has the details.
ALBANY, N.Y. -- Although Governor Andrew Cuomo says there was no specific timetable for getting the gun control legislation passed, New York State now becomes the first in the nation to pass stricter gun laws in the wake of the Newtown, Connecticut shootings.
Cuomo said, "Let's at least be able to say to people yes, we went through terrible situations. But we saw, we learned, we responded and we acted. We are doing something about it. We are not victims."
The comprehensive bill enacts an immediate ban on assault weapons, defined as guns with detachable magazines. This expands on New York State's 1994 ban, which had loopholes. It also limits magazines to seven rounds instead of ten and imposes new more rigorous background checks. "Look, there is always more that can be done, but this was a pretty ambitious proposal and it achieved a lot of what senate democrats have been trying to, so for several years, whether it's restrictions on assault weapons or requiring background checks," said Senate Deputy Minority Leader Michael Gianaris.
The legislation passed the Senate late Monday night without debate. It passed the Assembly on Tuesday after more than four hours of debate.
"Well New Yorkers are no safer, just like every other law that has been passed. Harvard has done a study, the CDC has done a study, gun control laws don't work because all they hamper law abiding citizens. The criminals, of course, don't care," Assemblyman Steve McLaughlin said.
Although not a single Republican attended the governor's signing ceremony Tuesday, members of the GOP took credit for the bill's inclusion of stricter penalties for those caught with illegal guns.
The legislation also allows guns to be taken away from those suffering from mental illness. Background checks will now be more extensive and the state expands Kendra's Law, which allows judges broader discretion in mandating treatment for mental illness. Assemblyman Keith Wright said, "I don't want people to have guns who are in the soundest of minds, much less with mental health issues. So I don't think too much ground was ceded. I feel like something needed to be done."
In a separate development, New York State Comptroller Tom DiNapoli announced that New York State will no longer invest its pension fund in companies that manufacture firearms. Governor Cuomo says he has no opinion in the matter and that it is entirely up to the comptroller.

text: To assist States with the implementation of Article 9 and Part 3 of the Technical Annex, in 2009 the then Coordinator on Generic Preventive Measures, Colonel Jean-Christophe Le Roux of France, developed a questionnaire which serves as a checklist for States to consider when they are developing procedures, guidelines or regulations on the implementation of generic preventive measures. The checklist has been reproduced in full below. It can also be found in Protocol V document CCW/P.V/CONF/2010/6/Add.1, 11 November 2010. Essentially the checklist is a tool to facilitate the implementation of generic preventive measures. While it does not have any legal status, it is hoped that the checklist will clarify various issues, establish best practises and serve to monitor and improve the implementation of generic preventive measures at the national level. 1.

Information Updates
2014 Board-set DVM and RVT Examination dates
January 17, 2014;
May 23, 2014.
Examinations are administered in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Examinations are not open book.
*Examinations may also be taken on a date of applicant's choosing in the Albuquerque Board office at a higher examination fee. Examinations must be scheduled no later than 24 hours prior to the desired examination date.
The Board continues to be notified of the solicitations to veterinarians for the purchase of drugs for re-sale to companies offering an incentive of paying a percentage of the sales of the drugs to the veterinarian ordering the drugs. Be advised, this type of dispensing of prescription drugs is in violation of the Board's Rules and Regulations, specifically:
18.104.22.168 A. No legend or controlled drug shall be prescribed, dispensed, or administered without the establishment of a veterinary-client-patient relationship.
The Board of Pharmacy has provided clarification concerning the compounding of veterinarian products. Please click on the link to view the Board of Pharmacy's Regulation concerning this topic.
Controlled Substances Dispensed by Veterinarians
The Board of Pharmacy has provided a helpful link to the PMP Dispensing Practitioner Manual to assist licensees in the controlled substances reporting to the Board of Pharmacy. Click here to access the instruction sheet.
May 1, 2013
The Board at its most recent Board Meeting held on April 5, 2013 discussed HR 1528, the Veterinary Medicine Mobility Act of 2013, amending the Controlled Substances Act to allow veterinarians to transport, administer and dispense controlled substances outside of their registered locations.
The Controlled Substances Act and resulting federal regulations make it illegal for veterinarians to transport controlled substances for use outside of their registered locations. A statutory change to the Controlled Substances Act will allow veterinarians to legally provide complete veterinary care a the offsite locations of their patients thereby providing proper care to their patients. The ability to be mobile will ensure the health and welfare needs of the animals as well as safeguarding the public safety and the nation's food supply.
The Board encourages all licensees to contact their Congressional representatives and voice their support of the amendment that currently detrimentally impacts all veterinarians and the services they provide. Urge your representatives to become co-sponsors; the more co-sponsors for the amendment the better chance it has of being passed by Congress. The following Congressional representatives are of importance to the issue due to the committees on which they sit and should be contacted as well:
Representative Michelle Lujan Grisham, Agriculture Committee. Contact: Alma Acosta at email@example.com;
Representative Ben Lujan, Energy & Commerce Committee. Contact Andrew Jones at email@example.com;
Representative Steve Pearce, while not on a committee of influence, has agreed to provide support for the amendment. Contact Jessica Blake at email@example.com.
For further information on HR 1528 and the proposed amendment, click here.
Thank you for supporting HR 1528,
Board of Veterinary Medicine Board Members
To access the latest version of the proposed changes, click here. It is recommended that the document be printed in color to facilitate reading the current language and the proposed changes.
SCHOOL LOAN REPAYMENT PROGRAMThe loan repay program is available for new graduates practicing in rural areas, in public health and in State government. In New Mexico, one award was made in 2010; four awards in 2011; and two awards were made in 2012. The program offers $25,000 per year for five years to pay off student loans. Applications are being accepted now; applicants can apply to the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture. For more information applicants can visit www.nifa.usda.gov.
EFFECTIVE NOVEMBER 1, 2011: The fee for DVM, RVT, AI, PD or Facility mailing list is $100 per spreadsheet list, $125 per mailing label list. All requests must be accompanied by the signed and dated Electronic Data Agreement.
Gross Receipts Tax
The Board recently learned from its auditors, Ricci & Company, that the Taxation and Revenue Department changed its statute related to tangible personal property used in the practice of veterinary medicine. Claims can be filed for a refund of Gross Receipts Taxes paid for the taxable years 2007-2010 based upon the previous statute. Attached is the prior statute and regulation for your use in making a claim. Click here for statute
Filings for the gross receipts tax refunds continue to be approved by the Taxation and Revenue Department. The time frame for the entire filing and approval process for claims in excess of $10,000 is typically six (6) months; claims less than $10,000 process sooner. Don't miss out on this opportunity to recoup gross receipts taxes paid on tangible personal property in relation to your practice of veterinary medicine.

Hampshire's military heritage shows a realm of possibilities
Thursday, 04 April 2013
Why not take a tip from the 2013 'Defence of the Realm' pocket guide and visit one of Hampshire's many military heritage sites this year.
Packed with over 80 great events and 30 sites including castles, historic ships, museums, special displays and exhibitions, the pocket guide is available free from Tourist Information Centres, by calling 01271 336136 or ordering on-line from the Defence of the Realm website. It also includes discount vouchers so visitors can make savings of up to 20% on normal admission fees.
Sites included in the guide range from Buckler's Hard in Beaulieu whose updated Maritime Museum is celebrating its 50th anniversary and the Royal Military Police Museum near Fareham, to the Royal Armouries Fort Nelson in Fareham and Basing House Ruins in Basingstoke. The guide also includes a comprehensive list of events for the whole year, including children's activities during school holidays, a Model Warship Weekend at Explosion! in Gosport, and a Fun For All Day at the Royal Green Jackets Museum in Winchester.
Tourism contributes almost £3 billion to Hampshire's economy every year and employs more than 60,000 people. Visitors to Hampshire's military heritage sites, more than one million people every year, make a substantial contribution to this total.
