CNET Editors' review
In our duties reviewing software for Download.com we install and uninstall a lot of programs. As we're sure you can imagine, this creates a bit of a mess on our PC. Many programs leave files behind when they're uninstalled, and since we're constantly downloading and deleting things, we end up with a lot of invalid shortcuts, broken registry entries, etc. For this very reason, we were excited about trying WinUtilities Free Edition, a suite of tools designed to free up disk space and improve system performance. We were quite pleased with the program's results.
Some of what WinUtilities does--disk defragmenting and cleanup, for example--can be accomplished using the System Tools that come with Windows. But we liked the way the program combined these and other functions into one clean, intuitive interface, making all of the most useful Windows maintenance utilities easy to access. The program contains a full complement of features to help you manage your computer's performance and security, including a file shredder, duplicate file finder, task scheduler, and much more. The program's One-Click Maintenance feature allows users to run a variety of customizable buttons with the click of a single button. The program's built-in Help file is well written and thorough. Overall, we were quite impressed with WinUtilities, and we think it's a great tool for keeping your system in good shape and free of performance-hindering junk.
WinUtilities Free Edition is free. The program installs and uninstalls without issues. We highly recommend this program to all users.

"Excellent, efficient and effective."
Version: WinUtilities Free Edition 10.39
Straightforward and easy to use. Relatively speedy for what it does. Free (obviously). does not interfere with other installed programs other than use of computer resources. A wide variety of tools in one package.
Nothing much. No autoupdate but I'm not that lazy 8-).
One of the best multipurpose tools available and a staple in my arsenal. I've used similar tools that were purchased and WinUtilities is a great mix for me of functionality and efficiency.
"Excellent utility for Windows xp"
Version: WinUtilities Free Edition 10.39
Intuitive, comprehensive, effective, and FREE. If you use this with ccleaner and a good anti-virus package, you will be well protected.
Does not always clean every registry error, but still does a very good job.
This program, with its many useful component tools, is as good a PC cleaner as others that charge full price. And it works just as well as they do.
"Fast with no problems as yet."
Version: WinUtilities Free Edition 10.39
Ease of use.
Have not found any yet.
I like it.
"Great cleaning tool!"
Version: WinUtilities Free Edition 10.39
A very powerful tool. Over the years, I spent so much time focusing on malware, adware, viruses, and the like, I neglected all the clutter that accumulates on the PC over time. This tool does a fantastic job of cleaning in the "nooks and crannies" of your PC.
A very powerful tool. Be sure to review the options before you run any of the programs. It does have the potential to "over-clean" your PC if you're not careful.
I would not recommend this tool for beginner-novice users. However, if you are charged with working on PCs that beginner-novice PCs use, it can prove useful.
"I can't rate this program it didn't do anything"
Version: WinUtilities Free Edition 10.39
There is no way to know, it shows errors but doesn't fix them. In order to see if it actually works you have to buy it.
It looks more like a bait & switch or a scam. I don't think a computer would run if their scan is correct.
I don't think that I would bother with this program.
The program may work but when I ran it it asked that Activate it before it would fix anything.
It found OVER TWENTY THOUSAND ERRORS
I have removed it from my computer
Updated on Dec 27, 2011
I already have similar product and have never had as many errors as this program says I have (Over 20,000) -
"bit of bait-and-switch, trial version was very limited"
Version: WinUtilities Free Edition 10.39
does the limited things well
bit of bait-and-switch, trial version was very limited
bit of bait-and-switch, trial version was very limited
"Excellent, does what it is supposed to do"
Version: WinUtilities Free Edition 10.39
This is only one of several utilities that I use to keep my computer clean and working top notch. It does its job and the best part is its free!!
I have not found any

After personal In.siieclion of the variou.s dist¬ ricts by the Health Officer and Medical Inspector it was decided that the loos¬ ing schools had accomplished sucli good worlt that the prizes were given alike to winner and loser.

It's no secret that people are fairly opinionated (one way or the other) about Fox News. I'm not going to weigh in on that debate, other than to note that there's a bizarre story making the rounds on FoxNews.com claiming that Google made a journalist "disappear" from Google due to his efforts to expose UN corruption. The problem is that this is simply untrue, and any basic fact checking by the Fox reporter would have made that clear. The guy in question wasn't removed from Google, but from Google News, which the search engine is quite clear is only a hand-chosen collection of publications, which the company reviews regularly. For better or for worse (and I actually tend to think for worse), Google has set some rules in terms of what types of sources can appear in Google News -- and this guy's site did not appear to qualify, hence the site getting bounced from the Google News index (not the wider Google). However, when people complained, and the guy provided proof that his organization might actually meet Google's standards, Google News agreed to put it back in the index. In other words, there's no story here. It has nothing to do with his reporting on UN corruption or Google's political views. It's certainly unlikely that the UN asked Google to remove him (as the guy implies). It's nice to cook up some conspiracy theory, but there's nothing to support the charges here. The Fox article does lay out some of these details at the end of the article, but the headline and opening certainly make you think that Google vindictively removed this guy from its index to punish him for exposing UN corruption.

Re: Faux News
They are no less impartial, nor do they perform any worse job of fact-checking than any other news source...
They are all wrong and biased. The vast majority (read every single one other than a few radio shows and Fox News) are left-biased. So it depends on what your personal bias is as to which news source is biased...
They are all incorrect all the time though. To say that ONLY Fox is because they do not share your view is short-sighted and closed-minded. -

Fox "News" is actually decidedly worse, they go a little bit further with their descriptive liberties and a little bit further with the dramatization and omitted facts then most news broadcasters do.
Though they are all horrible versus any practical standards. -

Fox's M.O.
This is a tradition at Fox News. They can have some journalistic integrity by providing alternate view points, but their headlines will be VERY misleading. For example, in reviewing President Bush just before the midterm elections, there was a standard piece about how history will view him. But, the title of the article was somehing to the effect of "Bush: Greatest president ever?". It's like having an article pointing out the possible personal foibles of the president an calling it "Bush: Sadomasochistic homosexual serial killer?". -
Overcast, Feb 19th, 2008 @ 6:56pmThey caved to political pressure from China.... you seriously don't think they would to the UN?
I'd say they have already made their intentions clear. Why is it that people go on and on and on about how Google caters to China, but an accusation is made about Google giving in to the UN and everyone's like "OMG no, it couldn't happen!"
Really? -

"They caved to political pressure from China.... you seriously don't think they would to the UN?"
China represents 1.2 billion potential customers. UN represents... err... represents... nothing of value to Google. Yes, you are right, Google made their intentions clear, they are all about business and UN has no effect on it. Case closed. -

Three men and a juvenile were arrested by Decatur Police for an armed robbery at a Moulton convenience store.
The incident happened just after 8:30 p.m. at the West Moulton Mini Mart on Oct. 11. Three men walked into the store with masks and guns and robbed the store of cash and cigarettes.
Investigators said it was later learned that an additional person was involved in the crime, acting as lookout. Tips from the public led to the arrest of Jordan Cranford, Joseph Campbell and Roosevelt McGee.
Friday, a 14-year-old boy was brought to Decatur City Hall by his mother at the request of investigators.
All four people were charged with first degree robbery. Cranford, 17, was charged as an adult under Alabama Law. The three adults were taken to the Morgan County Jail on $10,000 bond each. The 14-year-old was taken to the Tennessee Valley Detention Facility in Tuscumbia.

[JURIST] The US Department of Justice (DOJ) [official website] issued guidelines Monday directing federal prosecutors to respect state-sanctioned medical marijuana use and distribution, ending raids on facilities complying with state law. The memorandum [text] outlining DOJ priorities concerning illicit trafficking directs prosecutors not to focus on individuals acting in compliance with state medical marijuana laws. Though the DOJ declared its commitment to the Controlled Substances Act [text], the memo states the administration's intention to make "efficient" use of limited federal resources.
For example, prosecution of individuals with cancer or other serious illnesses who use marijuana as part of a recommended treatment regimen consistent with applicable state law, or those caregivers in clear and unambiguous compliance with existing state law who provide such individuals with marijuana, is unlikely to be an efficient use of limited federal resources

EMMY AWARD NOMINEE John Ratzenberger, Cliff Clavin, Cheers, THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK, Coming to New Orleans Comic Con!
EMMY AWARD NOMINEE John Ratzenberger,
Cliff Clavin
, Cheers, THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK, Coming to New Orleans Comic Con!
Yes, sir, were next months garage sale fodder for sure!
Ratzenbergers work for Pixar, as well as his parts in Superman and The Empire Strikes Back, makes him the 6th most successful actor of all time, as measured by a total box office of over $3,000,000,000.
John also developed packaging alternatives made from biodegradable and non-toxic recycled paper as a safe alternative to Styrofoam peanuts and plastic bubble wrap.
Ratzenberger was born in Bridgeport, Connecticut, the son of Bertha (née Grohowski) and Deszo Alexander Ratzenberger. He attended St. Anns School in Bridgeport and Sacred Heart University in Fairfield, Connecticut. In 1969 Ratzenberger was a tractor operator at the Woodstock Festival. He moved to London in 1971, living there for ten years.
John was a house framer living in London when he began his career in the performing arts. His first role was a Patron in The Ritz (1976). He appeared in minor roles in movies including Firefox; A Bridge Too Far; Superman as a missile controller; Superman II as the NASA control man; Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (1980) as Major Bren Derlin; Motel Hell (1980) as a punk rocker; Outland (1981) as a doomed mine worker named Tarlow, and Gandhi (1982), playing as an American Lieutenant.
Ratzenberger is best known for playing mail carrier Cliff Clavin on the sitcom Cheers. He had read for the part of Norm Peterson, but after the audition, he could tell they werent going to give him the part. Sensing an opportunity, he asked if they had written a bar know-it-all, which the producers decided was a great idea. Cliff became known for his outlandish stories of plausible half-truths, irrelevant trivia, and ignorant misinformation, and was known for being an overall pretentious blowhard. Cliff and Norm, the primary customer characters, became iconic bar buddies. Ratzenberger provided the voice for an animated version of Cliff on The Simpsons 6th season episode Fear of Flying.
John has had a voice part in all of Pixars feature films made to date. His roles include:
Hamm the Piggy Bank in Toy Story (1995), Toy Story 2 (1999) and Toy Story 3 (2010)
P.T. Flea, the Circus Ring Leader in A Bugs Life (1998)
The Abominable Snowman in Monsters, Inc. (2001)
School of Moonfish in Finding Nemo (2003)
The Underminer in The Incredibles (2004)
Mack the truck in Cars (2006) and Cars 2 (2011)
Mustafa the Waiter in Ratatouille (2007)
John in WALL-E (2008)
Tom the construction worker in Up (2009)
He also voiced the bathhouses assistant manager, Ao-gaeru, in the English dub of Spirited Away, a film whose U.S. executive producer was Pixars John Lasseter. Ratzenberger had the chance to make fun of his tenure at Pixar during the end credits of Cars, where his character, Mack, watches car-themed versions of Pixar movies (Toy Car Story. Monster Trucks, Inc.. and A Bugs Life), notes that all the characters Ratzenberger has played were excellent, until he realizes that theyre the same actor, at which point he remarks, Theyre just using the same actor over and over. What kind of cut-rate production is this?
Ratzenbergers favorite of his Pixar characters was P.T. Flea, because in real life I always get a kick out of those kinds of characters, people who just go into a rage for [no] explicable reason. He was always on edge. His blood pressure was always way over the top, and everything that he did was done in a panicked state. So it was a lot of fun to play him.
Other Work
John produced and hosted Made in America. a show for the Travel Channel, which established a television precedent and led the way for a new series of shows including: Dirty Jobs; Deadliest Catch; Ice Road Truckers; and more. These shows celebrate the work ethic that built America to be its strength.
John co-authored Weve Got it Made in America: A Common Mans Salute to an Uncommon Country, which was published by Time Warner.
John is on the boards of Pepperdine and Sacred Heart Universities.

For the Phoenix Coyotes, this season has had a lot of elements of schizophrenia - probably too many as far as I'm concerned. For each offensively strong game, there's been one where nothing seemed to click. For each shutout, there's been a Mike Smith shellacking. Even through the three game series with the Ducks that saw the 'Yotes take 4 of a possible 6 points and immediately preceded the team's first meeting with the St. Louis Blues just a week ago, the team showed a bit of everything.
But if there is one thing that's been a consistent trouble spot for this team, it's been Thursday night games. So far on the season, the Coyotes are a combined 0-5-0, and have been outscored in those five games by a total of 24-11. It's been downright ugly, and the Blues added to that ugliness with their 6-3 victory at Jobing.com Arena last week. As Coach Tippett said after that game "That wasn't our team right there . . . [We] didn't execute with the puck, [and] didn't defend real well." The Coyotes will look to improve upon those factors tonight.
Five For Winning
1. Score First. The Phoenix Coyotes under Coach Tippett have amassed a pretty ridiculous 108-13-16 when scoring the first goal. We know we say this one a lot, but the Coyotes are just a much better team when they aren't chasing the game.
2. Shake the Road Woes. The Coyotes are embarking on their longest road trip of the season (4 games) and currently have a 3-5-2 road record. It would do big things for this team (that has a lot of road games left) to come back from this trip with a .500 road record or better.
3. Puck Possession. As we discussed after the last road loss, the team's advanced metrics on the road show that they are not doing a good job of creating chances, a clear sign they are not possessing the puck enough...especially in the offensive end.
4. Play Your Game. Games between teams coached by Ken Hitchcock and Dave Tippett tend to be defensive battles, but that certainly wasn't the case last week. The Coyotes need to stay within their system to have the best chance for success.
5. No Injuries. Every team is the walking wounded to some extent this year, but the Coyotes seem to lose a player a game recently with Matthew Lombardi and Zbynek Michalek being the most recent victims (or in Lombo's case, repeat victim). While the players being called up have filled in admirably, it would be nice to get some time with our normal starters.
Players to Watch
Talk about making a strong impression - Das Hammer joined Oleg Saprykin and Wojtek Wolski as the only Coyotes players to score goals in their first two games with the team. In addition to the goals, though, Klinky Klink Drinky Drink has made each shift count with his tenacious forecheck and ability to throw his weight around. He may be no spring chicken, but he's been a burst of needed energy for this squad.
Berglund is having an excellent season and exploited the 'Yotes for a couple of goals in their last meeting. Keeping him contained should be a key part of the Coyotes game plan.
Likely Starting Goalies
These are unconfirmed and the last time I did this I got them both wrong. Wouldn't expect Barbs over Smith tonight even considering Smith's less-than-stellar track record against the Central Division. As for St. Louis, Jake Allen or Brian Elliott are certainly also options with the team carrying 3 goalies currently on the roster. Allen backstopped the victory last week in Phoenix and may get the nod again.
Matthew Lombardi, upper body, unknown
Zbynek Michalek, unknown (too many blocked shots)
Radim Vrbata, broken foot, indefinite
David Schlemko, upper body, out
Vladimir Tarasenko, concussion, indefinite
Andy McDonald, left knee, day-to-day
Alexander Steen, shoulder, day-to-day
T.J. Oshie, upper body, doubtful

"Awesome alternative to the iOS and Android"
I came from an iPhone 4 and was starting to get iOS fatigue. Windows Phone is a much more functional, if a little less polished, OS. Windows Phone UI is simple and intuitive and fun. As for Nokia's hardware I love it. You can call it heavy, but I think substantial is a better description. The Lumia 920 looks slick, too. Takes awesome pics in low light with or without the flash. Love Nokia Music, just waiting for Music+. Maps are awesome. Sure it's it doesn't have every app, but it has most of the ones I need and most of the ones that are missing are coming soon. Oh and in case you're worried about syncing stuff with iTunes, don't. There's a Windows Phone app for Mac OSX, so you can sync your music directly. All in all, I'm glad I made the switch. I'm still a Mac guy for everything but my phone.

- APA President. APA's president is elected by the membership. The president chairs the Council of Representatives and the Board of Directors. During his or her term of office, the president performs such duties as are prescribed in the Bylaws.
- Board of Directors. The board is composed of six members-at-large, the president-elect, president, past-president, treasurer, recording secretary, CEO, and the chair of the American Psychological Association of Graduate Students (APAGS). The Board oversees the association's administrative affairs and presents an annual budget for council approval.
- APA Council of Representatives. The council has sole authority to set policy and make decisions regarding APA's roughly $60 million annual income. It is composed of elected members from state/provincial/territorial psychological associations, APA divisions and the APA Board of Directors.
- APA Committee Structure: Boards and Committees. Members of boards and committees conduct much of APA's work on a volunteer basis. They carry out a wide variety of tasks suggested by their names. Some have responsibility for monitoring major programs, such as the directorates, the journals and international affairs.[5]
Good Governance Project[edit]
The Good Governance Project (GGP) was initiated in January 2011 as part of the strategic plan to "[assure] APA's governance practices, processes and structures are optimized and aligned with what is needed to thrive in a rapidly changing and increasingly complex environment."[6] The charge included soliciting feedback and input stakeholders, learning about governance best practices, recommending whether change was required, recommending needed changes based on data, and creating implementation plans.[6] The July 2013 GGP update on the recommended changes can be found in the document "Good Governance Project Recommended Changes to Maximize Organizational Effectiveness of APA Governance, July 2013." The suggested changes would change APA from a membership based, representational structure to a corporate structure.[7] These motions will be discussed and voted upon by Council on July 31, 2013 and August 2, 2013.[7]
Organizational structure[edit]
APA comprises an executive office, a publishing operation, offices that address administrative, business, information technology, and operational needs, and five substantive directorates:
- the Education Directorate accredits doctoral psychology programs and addresses issues related to psychology education in secondary through graduate education;[8]
- the Practice Directorate engages on behalf of practicing psychologists and health care consumers;[9]
- the Public Interest Directorate advances psychology as a means of addressing the fundamental problems of human welfare and promoting the equitable and just treatment of all segments of society;[10]
- the Public and Member Communications Directorate is responsible for APA's outreach to its members and affiliates and to the general public;[11]
- the Science Directorate provides support and voice for psychological scientists.[12]
Membership and title of "psychologist"[edit]
APA policy on the use of the title psychologist is contained in the Model Act for State Licensure of Psychologists:[13] Psychologists have earned a doctoral degree in psychology and may not use the title "psychologist" and/or deliver psychological services to the public, unless the psychologist is licensed or specifically exempted from licensure under the law. State licensing laws specify state specific requirements for the education and training of psychologists leading to licensure. Psychologists who are exempted from licensure could include researchers, educators, or general applied psychologists who furnish services outside of the health and mental health field.
Full membership with the APA in United States and Canada requires doctoral training whereas associate membership requires at least two years of postgraduate studies in psychology or approved related discipline. The minimal requirement of a doctoral dissertation related to psychology for full membership can be waived in certain circumstances where there is evidence that significant contribution or performance in the field of psychology has been made.[14]
Affiliate organizations[edit]
The American Psychological Association Practice Organization (APAPO) and the Education Advocacy Trust, which operates autonomously as a part of APAPO, are 501(c)(6) entities, separate from APA. They engage in advocacy on behalf of psychological practitioners and health care consumers and psychology education, respectively.

The Psychologically Healthy Workplace program[edit]
The Psychologically Healthy Workplace Program (PHWP) is a collaborative effort between the American Psychological Association and the APA Practice Organization designed to help employers optimize employee well-being and organizational performance. The PHWP includes APA's Psychologically Healthy Workplace Awards, a variety of APA Practice Organization resources, including PHWP Web content, e-newsletter, podcast and blog, and support of local programs currently implemented by 52 state, provincial and territorial psychological associations as a mechanism for driving grassroots change in local business communities. The awards are designed to recognize organizations for their efforts to foster employee health and well-being while enhancing organizational performance. The award program highlights a variety of workplaces, large and small, profit and non-profit, in diverse geographical settings. Applicants are evaluated on their efforts in the following five areas: employee involvement, work-life balance, employee growth and development, health and safety, and employee recognition. Awards are given at the local and national level.[20][21]
2010 award winners: American Cast Iron Pipe Company, Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare, Advanced Solutions (an HP company), Toronto Police Service and Leaders Bank.
APA Style[edit]
American Psychological Association (APA) Style is a set of rules developed to assist reading comprehension in the social and behavioral sciences. Designed to ensure clarity of communication, the rules are designed to "move the idea forward with a minimum of distraction and a maximum of precision."[22] The Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association contains the rules for every aspect of writing, especially in the social sciences from determining authorship to constructing a table to avoiding plagiarism and constructing accurate reference citations. "The General Format of APA is most commonly used to cite sources within the social sciences. General guidelines for a paper in APA style includes: typed, double-spaced on standard-sized paper (8.5" x 11") with 1" margins on all sides. The font should be clear and highly readable. APA recommends using 12 pt. Times New Roman font."[23]
APA maintains an abstract database named PsycINFO. It contains citations and summaries dating from the 19th century, including journal articles, book chapters, books, technical reports, and dissertations within the field of psychology. As of January 2010, PsycINFO has collected information from 2,457 journals.[24] Similar databases operated by other organizations include PsycLit and Psychological Abstracts. APA also operates a comprehensive search platform, PsycNET, covering multiple databases.[25] Date: 11 October 2013
The APA was founded in July 1892 at Clark University by a group of 26 men, the first president was G. Stanley Hall. It is affiliated with 60 state, territorial, and Canadian provincial associations.[26]
Dominance of clinical psychology[edit]
Due to the dominance of clinical psychology in APA, several research-focused groups have broken away from the organization. These include the Psychonomic Society in 1959 (with a primarily cognitive orientation), and the Association for Psychological Science (which changed its name from the American Psychological Society in early 2006) in 1988 (with a broad focus on the science and research of psychology). Theodore H. Blau was the first clinician in independent practice to be elected president of the American Psychological Association in 1977.[27]

Positions on homosexuality[edit]
Cause of homosexuality[edit]
The APA states the following:
"There is no consensus among scientists about the exact reasons that an individual develops a heterosexual, bisexual, or homosexual orientation. Although much research has examined the possible genetic, hormonal, developmental, social, and cultural influences on sexual orientation, no findings have emerged that permit scientists to conclude that sexual orientation is determined by any particular factor or factors. Many think that nature and nurture both play complex roles; most people experience little or no sense of choice about their sexual orientation."[28]
Conversion therapy[edit]
In 1975 APA issued a supporting statement that homosexuality is not a mental disorder.[29][30][31] There is a concern in the mental health community that the advancement of conversion therapy itself causes social harm by disseminating inaccurate views about sexual orientation and the ability of homosexual and bisexual people to lead happy, healthy lives.[32] Most mainstream health organizations are critical of conversion therapy, and no mainstream medical organization endorses conversion therapy.[32][33][34][35][note 1]
The APA adopted a resolution in August 2009 stating that mental health professionals should avoid telling clients that they can change their sexual orientation through therapy or other treatments. The approval, by APA's governing Council of Representatives, came at APA's annual convention, during which a task force presented a report[36] that in part examined the efficacy of so-called "reparative therapy," or sexual orientation change efforts (SOCE).
The "Resolution on Appropriate Affirmative Responses to Sexual Orientation Distress and Change Efforts"[37] also advises that parents, guardians, young people and their families avoid sexual orientation treatments that portray homosexuality as a mental illness or developmental disorder and instead seek psychotherapy, social support and educational services "that provide accurate information on sexual orientation and sexuality, increase family and school support and reduce rejection of sexual minority youth."
Same-sex marriage[edit]
The APA adopted a resolution stating that it is unfair and discriminatory to deny same-sex couples legal access to civil marriage and to all its attendant rights, benefits, and privileges. It also filed an amicus brief in the federal court case in which Judge Vaughn Walker struck down California's constitutional ban on same-sex marriage.[38] The APA later praised the decision and denied the existence of any "scientific justification" for a ban on same-sex marriage.[39]
In August 2011, the APA clarified their support of same-sex marriage in light of continued research suggesting that the same community benefits accepted as result of hetero-sexual marriage apply to same-sex couples as well, "We knew that marriage benefits heterosexual people in very significant ways, but we didn't know if that would be true for same-sex couples," said Dr. Clinton Anderson, associate executive director of the APA and director of the Office on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Concerns. Anderson would also go on to clarify the Association's view on Civil Unions as an alternative to same-sex marriages: "Anything other than marriage is, in essence, a stigmatization of same-sex couples. Stigma does have negative impacts on people." [40] Anderson's statements have been met with scrutiny from organizations such as the National Organization for Marriage, that dispute the notion that communities are more accepting of homosexuals in states that legally sanction same-sex marriage.[citation needed]
APA internship crisis for graduate students[edit]
The APA is the main accrediting body for U.S. clinical and counseling psychology doctoral training programs and internship sites.[41] APA-accredited Clinical Psychology PhD and PsyD programs typically require students to complete a one-year clinical internship in order to graduate (or a two-year part-time internship). However, there is currently an "internship crisis" as defined by the American Psychological Association, in that approximately 25% of clinical psychology doctoral students do not match for internship each year.[42][43] This crisis has led many students (approximately 1,000 each year) to re-apply for internship, thus delaying graduation, or to complete an unaccredited internship, and often has many emotional and financial consequences.[44] Students who do not complete an APA accredited internships in the U.S. are barred from certain employment settings, including VA Hospitals, the military, and cannot get licensed in some states, such as Utah and Mississippi.[45][46] Additionally, some post-doctoral fellowships and other employment settings require or prefer an APA Accredited internship.[45] The APA has been criticized for not addressing this crisis adequately and many psychologists and graduate students have petitioned for the APA to take action by regulating graduate training programs. Many graduate students attend APA accredited programs, yet are unable to secure APA accredited internships possibly leading to financial and employment hardships.
Use of coercive techniques considered equivalent of torture[edit]
The APA absolutely condemns the use of any of the following practices by military interrogators trying to elicit anti-terrorism information from detainees, on the ground that "there are no exceptional circumstances whatsoever, whether induced by a state of war or threat of war, internal political instability or any other public emergency, that may be invoked as a justification" for them:[47]
- An absolute prohibition against the following techniques therefore arises from, is understood in the context of, and is interpreted according to these texts: mock executions; water-boarding or any other form of simulated drowning or suffocation; sexual humiliation; rape; cultural or religious humiliation; exploitation of fears, phobias or psychopathology; induced hypothermia; the use of psychotropic drugs or mind-altering substances; hooding; forced nakedness; stress positions; the use of dogs to threaten or intimidate; physical assault including slapping or shaking; exposure to extreme heat or cold; threats of harm or death; isolation; sensory deprivation and over-stimulation; sleep deprivation; or the threatened use of any of the above techniques to an individual or to members of an individual's family.[47]
When it emerged that psychologists as part of the Behavioral Science Consultation Team were advising interrogators in Guantánamo and other U.S. facilities on improving the effectiveness of the "Enhanced interrogation techniques", the Association called on the U.S. government to prohibit the use of unethical interrogation techniques and labeled specific techniques as torture.[48][citation needed] Critics pointed out that the APA declined to advise its members not to participate in such interrogations.[49][50] This was in contrast to the American Psychiatric Association ban in May 2006 of all direct participation in interrogations by psychiatrists,[51] and the American Medical Association ban in June 2006 of the direct participation in interrogations by physicians.[52]
In September 2008, APA's members passed a resolution stating that psychologists may not work in settings where "persons are held outside of, or in violation of, either International Law (e.g., the UN Convention Against Torture and the Geneva Conventions) or the U.S. Constitution (where appropriate), unless they are working directly for the persons being detained or for an independent third party working to protect human rights."[53] The resolution became official APA policy in February 2009.
Amending the Ethics Code
In February 2010 APA's Council of Representatives voted to amend the association's Code of Ethics[54] to make clear that its standards can never be interpreted to justify or defend violating human rights. Following are the two ethical standards and the changes adopted. Language that is in bold was newly adopted:
1.02, Conflicts Between Ethics and Law, Regulations, or Other Governing Legal Authority
If psychologists' ethical responsibilities conflict with law, regulations, or other governing legal authority, psychologists clarify the nature of the conflict, make known their commitment to the Ethics Code and take reasonable steps to resolve the conflict consistent with the General Principles and Ethical Standards of the Ethics Code. Under no circumstances may this standard be used to justify or defend violating human rights.
1.03, Conflicts Between Ethics and Organizational Demands
If the demands of an organization with which psychologists are affiliated or for whom they are working are in conflict with this Ethics Code, psychologists clarify the nature of the conflict, make known their commitment to the Ethics Code, and take reasonable steps to resolve the conflict consistent with the General Principles and Ethical Standards of the Ethics Code. Under no circumstances may this standard be used to justify or defend violating human rights.

One common side effect of all three aromatase inhibitors (as well as some chemotherapies) is muscoluskeletal symptoms (meaning, aches and pains). Many women experience relatively mild discomfort, often worse first thing in the morning and eased by movement and activity. Fewer women, but still too many, are so uncomfortable that they can't tolerate any of these medications. There does not seem to be a lot to be done about them--the usual suggestions involve exercise, heat, perhaps ibupofran if it is really bad. My observation is that, like most things in life. we generally adat. Maybe we just become accustomed to a background level of discomfort or maybe it does improve over time.
This is a prosective study from Breast Cancer Research and Treatment that examines these symtoms in two groups of women: those who are taking an AI and those who have not had breast cancer and are not. Here is the abstract and then a link (note that the link is to the right of the page):
A prospective study of aromatase inhibitor therapy, vitamin D, C-reactive protein and musculoskeletal symptoms
Kathy J. Helzlsouer • Lisa Gallicchio • Ryan MacDonald • Bethany Wood • Errol Rushovich
Abstract This study compared type, severity and loca- tion of musculoskeletal symptoms and associations with 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations between women initiating aromatase inhibitor (AI) therapy and an unexposed comparison group. A 6-month prospective cohort study was conducted, enrolling 100 breast cancer patients prior to initiating AI treatment and an unexposed comparison group of 200 postmenopausal women. Multivariate associations were assessed with generalized linear models. At baseline, 55% of breast cancer patients and 63% of the comparison group reported any musculoskeletal symptoms. Among the unexposed group, prevalence and severity of symptoms remained constant with no statistically significant change over 6 months. Among breast cancer patients, but not unexposed women, the pain severity score significantly increased over the 6month period for joint (Ptrend \ 0.001), muscle (Ptrend = 0.004), and bone pain (Ptrend = 0.01). Women treated with AIs were more likely to report pain in wrists/palms (63% at 6 months) compared to unexposed women (31% at 6 months) (P \ 0.001). 25(OH)D concentrations increased over the study period among breast cancer patients (Ptrend = 0.004). An increase in pain severity and prevalence was observed among breast cancer patients despite an increase in 25 (OH)D concen- tration. CRP concentrations were not associated with symptoms. Musculoskeletal symptoms are common among postmenopausal women. Breast cancer patients initiating AI treatment were at increased risk for developing new onset and more severe joint, muscle and bone pain com- pared to unexposed women, with a distinct distribution. AI-associated symptoms were not associated with 25(OH)D or CRP concentrations.

Cash back debit cards aren't exactly brand new on the financial product scene, but this month one such card is making strides to prove it's ready to run with the big dogs.
PerkStreetSM† announced last week it will now offer 2% cash back on all non-pin transactions for cardholders who maintain a $5,000 balance.
Everybody earns 1% cash back with no minimum balance.
Users can also earn 5% cash back at select merchants and in rotating categories (this summer it's ice cream, home improvement, and gas).
PerkStreet has partnered with the Bancorp Bank to provide many of its banking services, including FDIC insurance. Users can simply deposit money electronically or mail checks in—or send checks overnight, for free. PerkStreet also has a nationwide network of fee-free ATMs and provides free checks. It takes a minimum deposit of $25 to open an account.
"If you've been spending on credit cards just to get rewards, this is the alternative you've been looking for. Imagine, finally being rewarded for spending wisely," says PerkStreet Financial CEO Dan O'Malley.
In my opinion, offering 2% cash back on everything is pretty bold, because it beats many credit card rewards programs. Even the best credit card rewards only pay more than 1% cash back on certain categories or when you reach certain spending levels. And many charge an annual fee.
At the same time, this benefit blows away interest-bearing checking accounts.
With a PerkStreet card an a $5,000 balance (so you earn 2% back), if you spend $1,000 a month, you'll earn $240 cash back in a year. $1,500 a month equals $360 a year. $2,000 a month gets you a cash reward of $480.
How can they afford this?
Well, that's the power of interchange fees, those small percentages of each transactions that merchants (and, in turn, we the consumer) pay each time we buy something with plastic. In rewards debit cards and credit cards are just paying us back money we paid them in the form of these interchange fees.
But that's the game, and cash back cards like the PerkStreet debit card are a way to win it.
One note of caution about debit cards: Unlike credit cards, if your debit card is stolen, the thief is taking money right out of your bank account, and the bank may take days or weeks to return it to you. Also, credit cards help you build credit; debit cards do not. (Kind of important if you're starting out and want a mortgage someday). Credit cards can also help you resolve disputes with merchants…and you don't pay until the problem's resolved.
If you're worried about going into debt with a credit card, however, that's more than enough reason to stick with debit cards. And if you can earn 1-2% cash back while debiting…why the heck not?
