Fitbit is no stranger to wearable fitness trackers, smartwatches not so much. Today the company unveiled three new products, and one of them is their first smartwatch called the Fitbit Surge. It is not your typical smartwatch.
As smartwatches and fitness trackers become more popular, more companies jump aboard the wearables bandwagon. It looks as if Lenovo is gearing up to join the fray, and their first gadget will be known as the Lenovo Smartband SW-B100.
We're used to seeing expensive wearables, and we haven't even seen the cream of the crop yet with the Moto 360 and iWatch. If you want something a tad bit cheaper, and without all the bells and whistles, you may want to consider the Xiaomi Mi Band and its rock bottom price.
It's been a long time coming, but the Fitbit Windows 8.1 app has finally touched down. The company announced the upcoming software around eight months ago, and now Fitbit owners around the globe can sync up their Windows 8.1 smartphones to their favorite fitness tracker. Fitbit has been out for Android an iOS for quite…

Irreverent Reverend: Bob Seals Interview Outtakes Part 1
In the current issue of Dirt Rag (on sale now) you'll find a ground-breaking interview with Reverend Bob Seals of CoolTool, Kleen Kanteen and Retrotec fame. This multi-faceted artist, activist, frame builder, race promoter and team owner, if not agitator, ran his whole operation out of his ranch just outside of Chico, California.
Seals was first interviewed in Dirt Rag #38 in July 1994 by Fernando Avallone and we strongly suggest you find and read that original interview, there's too much there to miss. We also suggest you read the new interview by the same author in Issue #178 if you haven't yet. Over the next few weeks we'll be posting select outtakes that didn't make it to print. Most of these unimaginable stories are being told for the first time right here.Tweet
Blast From the Past: Reader Art in living color
Our previous "Blast" dipped into Dirt Rag's black/white reader art archives and featured a selection of monochrome masterpieces. This edition is a horse of a different color. We've put together a slide show of reader art that's subtitled: In Living Color. Thanks again to all of the talented readers who've sent us their artwork over the years. We appreciate your creations, and enjoy sharing them with the world.Tweet
Blast from the Past: Reader Art
Since the very beginning, Dirt Rag has offered artistic types a welcoming space to showcase their creative talents. In addition to professional artists, whose works have graced magazine covers and illustrated feature stories, a number of regular readers have scored 15 minutes of fame via art appearing within the pages of Dirt Rag.
For a number of years, we regularly ran a half-page collage aptly named: Reader Art. While I'm sure folks were stoked to see their works in print, running five or six pieces on a half-page layout didn't always do justice to the art.
The Dirt Rag blog to the rescue! I've decided to devote a series of "Blast From The Past" posts to showcasing some of my favorite Reader Art pieces. To honor Dirt Rag's monochrome roots, I'm starting with some classic black-and-white artwork from days gone by.
See some of our favorites here.Tweet
#tbt: Show us your tattoo
With acres upon acres of cool bikes and gadgets on display at the annual Interbike trade show, it's tough to get noticed. Exhibitors battle to attract the roving hordes to their booths. Most employ tried and true tactics: booze, booth babes and boatloads of booty (as in pirates' booty, a.k.a. swag).
Dirt Rag has always been know for rolling its own. In 1996 our booth buzz scheme was a "Show Us Your Tattoo" promotion. We invited ink-bearing attendees to stop by our booth and have their body art documented via color Polaroid snapshots, which we posted on the back wall of our booth.
Dirt Rag Issue #55 featured a full-page black-and-white collage of our favorite 20 tattoos from the show. While rummaging through the Dirt Rag "hardocpy" archives, I stumbled upon the original tattoo Polaroids.
Eureka! This gold mine needed to be shared—in living color.
So without further ado, I give your "Our Favorite Tattoos" from Interbike 1996.

25th Anniversary: 25 years of dirt to dish
This year is a major milestone for Dirt Rag. We're celebrating 25 years of printing the magazine. The 'Rag has gone from being hand-stapled in Maurice and Elaine Tierney's basement for East Coast consumption in 1989 to where we are today in 2014: enjoying rapid circulation growth and distribution across the globe.
As part of the celebration our next issue will feature special content that's sure to become a collector's item. One feature story, written by Gary Boulanger, is an inside look at the history of Dirt Rag with an inside view of how it all began and how we got to where we are. As part of that, I'd like to share a few extra stories over the next few weeks that came out of Gary's research. Hopefully you'll enjoy them as much as I do and will look forward to reading this special feature when it arrives on newsstands April 1 or in your mailbox even sooner if you're a subscriber (hint, hint).

Blast from the Past: The Original Dirt Fest
The first edition of Dirt Rag's Dirt Fest took place in 1991 at Camp Soles, a YMCA youth camp located in the Laurel Highlands, just east of Pittsburgh. For me, that era represents a magical time, marked by glorious tribal gatherings known as mountain bike festivals.
In fact, I'd learned about Dirt Fest from some friends that I met at the legendary Jim Thorpe Mountain Bike Weekend. I attended the first Dirt Fest as a "civilian." A few months after the event, I became friends with the Dirt Rag crew by showing up at their weekly rides in Pittsburgh, and about a year later I landed my first job at the magazine.
Compared to Dirt Fest's current incarnation, the original event was decidedly chill. There was no vendor expo bristling with the bleeding edge of bicycle technology. Demo rides amounted to swapping bikes with a newfound friend. I seem to remember a bonfire, and somebody playing a guitar—a far cry from The Earthtones jamming for a circus tent full of free-beer-lubricated mountain bikers.

Throwback Thursday: Artistic Interpretations of The Old Coot
Over the course of an amazing 19-year run, Bill Boles stepped into a nearby phone booth seven times per year, and emerged toting yet another installment of The Old Coot. Starting with Dirt Rag #15 and running through issue #153, The Old Coot dispensed a potent blend of riding tips, mechanical tricks, and practical New Englander wisdom—in a unique, homespun style.
Contributing a legacy of 139 columns was not only a mind-boggling demonstration of journalistic superpowers, but it was also a boon for artists. All of those columns would need illustrations, after all.
Over the years, Dirt Rag has been graced with a dazzling array of artists' interpretations of the Coot. I thought it would be fun to recap the artistic history of the Old Coot, and share some of my favorite Coot artwork.

Blast from the past – Origin of the Specialty Files
In its present format, The Specialty Files is a recurring print column in Dirt Rag that is written by Jeff Archer, and features a vintage bike from his collection at the Museum of Mountain Bike Art & Technology in Statesville, N.C.
However, the earliest installments of The Specialty Files featured serendipitous discoveries that Maurice spied while jaunting cross-country, during the heyday of the Dirt Rag World Tour. Maurice leaned on Jeff to help provide background details on the unearthed rigs.
The Specialty Files first appeared in Dirt Rag issue #104, which was published on Nov. 15, 2003. It featured Dan Smith's sweet 1987 Cannondale SM600, with its unique 24/26-inch mismatched wheels.
Dan is a Pittsburgh homeboy that was a regular fixture on the infamous Dirt Rag Thursday night ride back in the early 1990s. Some years ago Dan and his mountain biking wife Sara relocated to Salt Lake City.
As I re-read the original story, my mind got to thinking about that old bike. Did Dan still have it? Was it running? Did he hit any sweet jumps on it?Tweet
Bicycles on Snow: Iditabike 1988
I just stumbled across this amazing documentary originally shot for the Discovery Channel about the second-ever Iditabike race across Alaska—210 miles of frozen toes and ruddy cheeks. Produced by Mark Forman, it won the Interbike Film Festival in 1994.
The technology (and fashion!) sure has changed over the last 25 years. I can't wait to see what bikes we'll be riding 25 years from now.Tweet
Trailer: The Rider and the Wolf
Crested Butte in 1980 still echoed with the hammers of miners, not the rumble of knobby tires on singletrack. But that was about to change as a young blue-eyed man named Mike Rust wrenched madly, transforming old Schwinn cruiser bikes into some of Colorado's first mountain bikes. When the Californians like Gary Fisher and Joe Breeze arrived to test their fancy new bikes on CB's storied terrain, Rust was ready and spun his way uphill into the ranks of the Mountain Bike Hall of Fame. Like fresh raw singletrack, Rust cut a path through Colorado's early days of mountain biking in a swirl of dust mixing innovation, independence, irreverence and a band of Irish brothers into America's true wild west.
Then he dissappeared without a trace.
The mystery of Rust's life and disappearance is chronicled in the new film The Rider and the Wolf, from Grit & Thistle films.Tweet
Throwback Thursday: The origins of Dirt Rag's 'Subscriptions Guy'
By Karl Rosengarth
Fire up the trusty Dirt Rag time machine, Sherman. This time we're going back for a peek at the origins of the Subscription Guy.
Back in the late '90s I was in charge of Dirt Rag subscriptions, and was given the opportunity to create a house advertising campaign. I'll have to admit that running a subscription advertisement inside the very magazine to which you hoped to attract subscribers seemed like preaching to the converted. After stroking my beard for an extended period, I decided that the ads should enhance the personal bond between Dirt Rag and our subscribers. I wanted to emphasize our personalized service and customer-first ethos. After all, didn't have a subscription department. We had a subscription person—me. At that time, you called the 800, and I entered your subscription, booked your renewal, changed your mailing address, or took your merchandise order.
The only thing that my one-man subscription department needed was name. I dub thee—Subscription Guy! Read the full storyTweet
Dirt Rag Time Machine – Husker Du? Rag
By Karl Rosengarth
As I dove deep into the stack of archives from my most recent excursion in the Dirt Rag Time Machine, a thought occurred to me. Wouldn't it be fun to play a little trivia quiz game?
Sure it would!
I even came up with a name for my game: Hüsker Dü? Rag. (I hope the makers of the original game have a sense of humor.)
Here's how it goes… Below I've posted a series of pics from the Dirt Rag archives, along with clues, and a question about each item. Your challenge is to post your answer(s) in the comments below. You're allowed one answer per question. I'll let you know if you've answered correctly or not. Here we go!
Question #1
Back in the day, folks took bike limbo seriously. Perhaps a little too seriously, from the looks of that bloody shin. Can you name the "very popular in the '90s" mountain bike festival at which this action shot was taken?
Question #2
I pity the fool that doesn't read Dirt Rag! Can you name the artist of this fine drawing? (hint: appeared as full-page art in 1996).
Question #3
The following illustration by John Hinderliter came from a column that appeared several times over the years. The column revealed the "true" meaning behind riders' words. Can you name the title of the column?
Question #4
What the hell are these people doing, and where are they doing it?
Question #5
I love this action shot of Chris Cosby (Dirt Rag's former Ad Guy) Johnny Surfing on Bradley Woehl's Bicycle Trader cargo bike at the 1997 Anaheim Interbike show. Can you name the fine, upstanding motel where these shenanigans went down (hint: it's shown in the background)?
Question #6
In the early '90s we had fun during deadlines, cutting and pasting tiny drawings in the "white space" that was left over at the end of articles and in the page margins. It's interesting to note the all of the "margin art" came from the same art contributor. Can you name the artist?
That's it for the first installment of Hüsker Dü? Rag. Is there a prize for answering correctly? Why yes—the glory of victory! Not to mention our eternal gratitude for being a Dirt Rag fanboy or fangirl.
Please forgive the condition of some of the above items. Time travel is rough on paper.
I've got more archival goodies up my sleeve future posts, so don't be a stranger.Tweet

Someone took my name "Karasu Kuro".
Please ban Karasu Kuro for stealing names and never let this player play any game that requires a username ever again because the world is centered around myself.
There are other people in this world; first come first serve
Try having a name that isn't incredibly unoriginal.
Coach From L4D2
Those are all fairly common names. I'm kind of shocked it took this long for them to get taken...
lol just put numbers, my name is ScareKrow31 lol not that bad
This happens in every online game. Deal with it.

Save and quit. And retry. I had the same thing happen to me, it sucked to have to beat all those people again. But I just went to Start>Quit>Save & Quit. Then loaded it right back up. This time I ran past the enemies and made it to the door, then the Constructor came out and killed me, but it triggered the door to open. I then respawned and slowly made my way back killing enemies, but the door remained open.
Answer from: lil dude
U gotta kill the badass constructor or the constructor (i dont know witch u will have) and then the door should open but if it doesnt then do wat the other guy said save and quit then go back and try again

Wiki Headlines
18th Nov: We've switched servers and will be updating the old code over the next couple months, meaning that several things might break. Please report issues here.
main index
open/close all folders
Ages of the characters
Kaoru Mori has not given exact ages to the characters (except to Ilse whose fifth birthday was featured), but instead, she gave the age order of the characters in the extra material of the ninth manga volume. Using this and other hints in the series, let's try to figure out their ages! And here comes the age list, from youngest to oldest. If they are on the same line, they equally old. You can add comments about them under the names! (The troper has only Finnish versions of Victorian Romance Emma manga volumes and thus she is does not know the English translation. Feel free to make corrections.)
Length of the time skip
Another question: How long is the time skip between the end of manga volume 7 (the end of the actual series) and the final epilogue of the series in the volume 10, or William and Emma's wedding? Some notes:
Known dates in the series (to support two earlier questions)
Here I list some more or less exact dates that are shown in the series or RL historical dates:
Ilse and Erich's English skills
How was it possible that Ilse and Erich, who apparently were unable to speak anything else than their native language German before the time skip, speak apparently at least quite good English after the time skip? (They chat with Colin and Vivi respectively and apparently have no big language barriers. Though they don't talk about very complicated issues.) Mad English studying motivated by the contacts to Joneses? Well, also depends on how long the time skip was. And of course, children can be amazing what comes to learning new things.

Samsung Unveils the Curved Gear S Smartwatch With Tizen and 3G Connectivityby Brandon Chester on August 27, 2014 11:45 PM EST
LG isn't the only company announcing a new smartwatch today. Samsung has announced a new device in their line of Gear smartwatches. Their latest watch is the Samsung Gear S, and it's one of the only smartwatches on the market that sports 3G connectivity. This allows it to function on its own without having to be forever tethered to a smartphone to access notifications and other content.
The other unique feature of the Gear S is its 2" curved OLED display with a resolution of 320x480. Samsung believes that a convex display allows for a more ergonomic and comfortable smartwatch. With its curved rectangular display the form factor of the Gear S is like a cross between fitness bands and smartwatches.
Inside it features an unnamed 1GHz dual core CPU paired with 512MB of RAM and 4GB of NAND. Samsung rates the 300mAh battery inside for two days of usage. Like most of Samsung's other smartwatches, it includes a heart rate sensor and IP67 dust and water resistance rated for 30 minutes of submersion in up to 1 meter of water.
Unlike most other smartwatches, the Gear S runs Samsung's Tizen operating system rather than Google's Android Wear platform. It includes some of Samsung's software like S Health and their smartwatch music player. Between Tizen's built in applications and the watch's support for WiFi and 3G networking, the Gear S may be the first smartwatch that can act as its own device rather than an extension of a user's smartphone.
Samsung will begin sales of the Gear S in early October. Pricing is yet to be announced.

hpglow - Thursday, August 28, 2014 - linkOn a device like this I fail to see how OS matters. In the phone sector I hope Tizen goes somewhere because Apple and Google aren't doing anything good anymore. You get the choice of overpriced mediocre or bloated software on devices that look cheap. Both tied to a shop designed to keep you on the platform. Then there is windows phone while ok has no apps. Reply
Mattle - Thursday, August 28, 2014 - linkA slightly unfair comment on good making bloated software on devices that look cheap, my Nexus 7 (2013) has neither of those faults and has been excellent from day 1. I would agree with phones from third parties (Samsung etc.) though in that they are full of bloatware. Reply
cwolf78 - Thursday, August 28, 2014 - linkAgreed. Also don't forget HTC. My One M8 is on the opposite end of the spectrum of cheap and bloated. Samsung is definitely among the worst when it comes those attributes. Reply
jakebruno - Thursday, October 09, 2014 - linkAnother good watch from Samsung, but honestly the Samsung Gear 2 is still more usable it will probably still sell a lot more. /Jake from http://www.consumertop.com/best-wearable-tech-guid... Reply
Murloc - Thursday, August 28, 2014 - linkyou hope to see Tizen go somewhere but you complain about windows phone not having apps?
It has 1/4 of the apps android has and it's been around for years. If that is not enough, then tizen will never work for you either. Reply
fteoath64 - Sunday, August 31, 2014 - linkI agree!. While Tizen for smartphone suffers from the lack of an ecosystem, for a Smartwatch, it is a totally blank slate hence, it makes sense to use Tizen rather than Android Wear. The dependence on Google needs to be reduced in order to innovate further as tight control as Google started for Wear is just going to limit its usefulness. The design cue is nicer than the previous iterations and hopefully with better materials in future, such a watch would be a normal thing for many many people. Yeah, I meant titanium casing for the watch. A highly sensitive and accurate microphone is really needed for this watch to be useful. Keep innovating Sammy!. Reply
SultanD - Sunday, September 14, 2014 - linkBS. It's an appropriate OS for the device. Although I am a fan of Android, I think Android wear is bloated, rushed and not ready for prime-time. My Tizen powered Gear 2 Neo just got put to bed with 78% battery power remaining after a full long day. It's fast and efficient. It gets the job done surprisingly well. Reply
Mugur - Thursday, August 28, 2014 - linkAnd I bet it's working only with certain Samsung Galaxy / Note smartphones (unless you want to use it as standalone with a SIM). Reply
TechieBen - Thursday, August 28, 2014 - linkFP! And all because a watch with 2-day battery life is being overhyped. My Nokia dumbphone runs longer than that. And my droid does everything this bracelet puter is supposed to, and likely does it better. Reply

My skin: dehydrated, oily, sensitive/reactive, very clog prone
I've been into balms lately, so I was excited to try this. The ingredients looked ok, so I thought for sure it would work for me. Unfortunately, this did not work well with my skin. It removes makeup completely and emulsifies with water, so it rinses clean (no residue). However, it dried out my skin and clogged my pores within a few days. I'm somewhat surprised because I use Emma Hardie's Moringa Cleansing Balm as well as Omorovicza's Thermal Cleansing Balm without a problem (Both of those contain fatty alcohols and other oils, including some essential oils, which can be very problematic for sensitive and clog prone skin.) Hmm. Maybe I'll use it as an eye makeup remover only, so I can use it up. Will not repurchase.

Love it !
The packaging looks pretty and the product feel great.
My Skin Looks supple afterwards and nicely clean.
I use it as my first cleanse in the evening
I use this stuff every night and i love it! Its much better than cleansing oil as I find the balm easier to blend in and wash off. This is not a replacement for a face wash, so you still need one! I think the price is fitting compared to the other stuff (laura mercier, mac) as the balm lasts much longer since you need very little.
This really does the job and melts all my make up off. Especially Estée Lauder Double Wear light which usually is tough to take off. Price is reasonable, packaging could get unhygienic if you're putting unwashed hands in the tub. If I can find a spatular I might start using that to pick up product rather than using fingers. Also, doesn't break me out. Overall a happy bunny.

I really wanted to like this product after reading reviews here on MUA. The sales assistant at the clinique counter assured me it would be great for sensitive skin. It removed my makeup well, but left me with sore itchy and dry bumpy skin. I have never had such a bad reaction from any beauty product :(.... I wish this worked for me!

I tried this product on whim and was really pleasantly surprised, and actually VERY IMPRESSED. Firstly, I have very sensitive, dry skin. Most products that I use are either too harsh, drying, or irritate my skin. I find that this product doesn't clog pores, is not drying and easily removes all makeup.
When I first tried it, I was a bit sceptical of the texture, but once you add water to it and massage it into the skin, it easily washes away any traces of anything!
When applying, the texture feels quite greasy, but it doesn't leave any residue. I have had no breakouts from this product (and I usually do from most products). In fact, my skin has been looking pretty clear since I started using this. I am an avid oil cleanser user, and have been using mac oil cleanser for years, but this is the first product that I will consider substituting my usual cleanser with.
The only issue I have is the packaging. Whilst for travel it is good on one hand, because it won't leak, on the other, the tub is just huge & heavy when packing. I wish they could come up with a tube of this tub for travel or something. A tube would also prevent other people's fingers getting into the product.
Lastly, I have read that a lot of users double-cleanse after using this product, but I am not sure why, as it doesn't leave any residue and cleans skin perfectly. I personally, am not a fan of over-cleansing, so I only use this as a 1-step and don't feel the need to clean my skin afterward with any other product. I just pop on some moisturiser or some oil after I cleanse and I'm good to go.

The first time I tried this stuff it kinda squigged me out. It seems like you are washing your face with Crisco. I was thinking, ugh, how will I ever get this greasy stuff off my face? Then I splashed water on it and it magically turned into a light foam and just rinsed away, no residue! It doesn't sting my eyes. It takes off everything - long wear foundation, waterproof eyeliner, you name it! I'm on my second tub and will definitely buy it again. My only complaint is packaging related - I think it ought to have a seal over the top, under the lid. Because when I buy it at Sephora I have to open every jar and examine it the top surface to find one that other people haven't used as a tester.
Have been using this religiously for the last 4 years.
- travel friendly as there is no chance of it leaking
- gets 200% of your makeup off.
I strayed into Bioderma, Olay, Clarins cleansers but always came back to this.
If it weren't for the $50+ it retails for in New Zealand, I would give it six lippies!

The most efficient makeup remover I've tried. I usually use a makeup remover wipe, then a cotton pad with eye makeup remover, and then a cleanser all over my face, and sometimes with the lesser cleansers, I'd still find some makeup residue on my face when applying toner. It's too much! And I've tried ALL sorts of cleansers, from low to high end (I tried the Clinique gel one, Garnier milks and gels, Olay, Basis -but ended up drying my skin and hard to get a hold of-, Benefit foaming cleanser, Chanel milk, Dove, Lancome makeup removers, Cetaphil...)
Enter Clinique's balm. It seemed very heavy at first, I mean, it looks like a dense petroleum body butter :s I'm used to cleansing milks or just something liquid. But once you massage it on your face, it sort of melts and becomes more liquidy. It takes off EVERYTHING. So good. (I did spend a couple of minutes gently massaging) It washes off surprisingly easily with lukewarm water. I don't feel any filmy residue, or any unusual dryness/oiliness. It has no perceivable scent. It's white in the pot, clear on your face.
I apply this to dry skin (no makeup remover wipe needed *yay*), massage until I can see all the makeup loose, then rinse. Pat dry, apply toner, eye cream, moisturizer, you know the rest. Ta-da! Fresh skin. Clean face.
I'm very pleased and will repurchase :)

I decided to try this based on the rec of another poster who has skin very similar to mine and boy am I glad I gave it a go. I don't use much makeup but I do use physical ss which can be problematic when it comes to cleansing it all off. TTDOB removes every last trace without causing any problems for my dry/sensitive/mature/mild rosacea skin. I usually put a small amount in the palm of my hand, press hands together and it emulsifies very nicely. Then I apply to my face and rub gently for a minute or so. At first I used a soft cotton cloth after rinsing with water as I was somewhat afraid it might clog the sides of my nose as heavy products can do at times. After several weeks I realized all I really need to do is rinse well as I have had no clogging at all from this product. I use it in the evenings to remove ss and am really pleased with the results.

Wycombe boss Gary Waddock was in no mood to pull any punches after his side lost 3-1 to Cheltenham in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy.

On paper Waddock's League One side were expected to progress, but a double from Darryl Duffy, plus an effort from Brian Smikle, did the damage.
Kevin Betsy was on the scoresheet for the home side but boss Waddock was unimpressed with their efforts.
"You can't defend like that," he said. "The scoreline, to be fair, could have been more than it was but we didn't deserve anything especially when you defend that way, you're going to concede goals.
"I've said quite a bit to the players, but that will remain in the dressing room, it can't continue but the players know my feelings.
"There was opportunities given but how many took that opportunity? The run we're on is a poor run, you can't hide behind that fact."

Outstanding students are set to enrol at the University after receiving their A-Level results today, continuing Cardiff's record of attracting high-flying undergraduates.
Part of the Russell Group of research intensive universities, Cardiff remains one of the most popular places to study. The University's research-led teaching environment and multi-million pound state-of-the-art facilities attract students from the UK and internationally.
Dave Roylance, Head of Undergraduate Recruitment at the University said: "We congratulate all of those applicants who have achieved the grades required for admission, and look forward to welcoming this new intake of promising new undergraduates to the University in September.
"Congratulations also go to our Thrive Challenge winner, Chris Nation and his fellow finalists who all secured their places at Cardiff."
As in previous years, Cardiff University has entered Clearing to recruit a limited number of additional high calibre students.
Dave Roylance added: "This is excellent news for well-qualified students seeking a university place for this autumn. Cardiff's reputation for the quality of its teaching and its capital city location mean that it is one of the most popular universities in the UK.
"Our message to high quality students still looking for places is to contact us immediately as the picture is changing minute by minute and our remaining places are in great demand."
Details of the course vacancies available can be found on the University's Clearing pages or by contacting the Clearing Enquiry Centre: 029 2087 6000.

Diagnostic Medical Sonographers are instrumental in the care of their patients. The images they provide of the inside of the body are used by physicians to prevent, detect, and treat disease, as well as monitor the growth of a fetus. Growth in the medical imaging field is expected to be at 46% through 2022 according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. These projections make it a great time to pursue your education at one of the ultrasound technician schools in Arkansas. Below, we'll tell you about the certification requirements in Arkansas, as well as the job outlook and the average salary you can expect to earn.
Due to the high cost of setting up a facility for ultrasound training, some communities cannot offer a program specific to diagnostic medical sonography. In those situations, students may wish to pursue a related career, which can be a good point of entry to the field of healthcare. Begin by requesting information from schools, and you'll get the opportunity to ask questions to see if they offer the programs you're looking for.

Arkansas Ultrasound Career Outlook
Arkansas has a low level of education of its citizens, an aging workforce, and low per capita income. However, Arkansas also has a low level of debt and that, combined with a good labor policy, places Arkansas 12th in the nation in terms of economic growth. New employment opportunities are created for ultrasound techs as aging baby boomers need more medical care, or as they retire from their current positions.
Ultrasound technicians in Arkansas earned, as a median salary, $55,980 per year in 2013. Growth in the industry is expected to grow at a rate faster than normal, with a 41% employment increase expected by 2022.
Accredited Sonography Schools in Arkansas
There are many factors to consider when choosing your sonography program, and one of the most important is accreditation. The following medical sonography schools in Arkansas have all been approved by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP) as of October, 2014:
Arkansas State University-Jonesboro – Jonesboro, AR
Website: www.astate.edu
University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences-Little Rock – Little Rock, AR
Website: www.uams.edu
University of Arkansas Fort Smith – Ft Smith, AR
Website: www.uaforthsmith.edu
Certification Requirements in Alabama
While Alabama does not require their diagnostic medical sonographers to be licensed or certified, many states are considering moving towards licensure, so it's smart thing to consider. Many employers do require professional certification, typically by the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography (ARDMS). The only way to earn certification is by taking and passing their exam. There are six locations in Arkansas to take the exam, and you can find them on the ARDMS website at ardms.org, or by calling the testing company Pearson Vue at 1-877-258-9220.
The easiest way to qualify to sit for the exam is to graduate from a program accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP). Otherwise, you'll need 12 months of full time clinical experience. You can read more about the testing prerequisites on the ARDMS website. Request information from several ultrasound technician schools in Arkansas, and do the research to make sure that they meet the certification requirements you're looking for.
Arkansas' Salary Outlook by Metropolitan Area (2013 data)

|Fayetteville-Springdale-Rogers, AR-MO

Things to do in Arkansas
Arkansas, also known as "The Natural State", offers many activities for students looking to take a break from the books. If you enjoy the outdoors, there are many caverns, lakes, and forests to explore, or you can go digging for diamonds or quartz crystals. If you prefer city life, you can meet up with your friends at one of the many microbreweries, restaurants, and shops in Little Rock, or one of the many other larger cities in the state. Arkansas has the great combination of a positive employment outlook and fun recreational activities to offer students pursuing their ultrasound degree.

Nuclear weapons are as relevant today as they were decades ago. In 2009, President Obama advocated for a "world without nuclear weapons," and recently reaffirmed this pledge during his speech at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin. The President stated that he intends to reduce U.S. deployed strategic nuclear weapons by up to one-third below the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty level.
Meanwhile the U.S. nuclear triad continues to age. The Administration's policy of "no new weapons," potential unilateral reductions, and a lack of commitment to sustain U.S. nuclear weapons infrastructure are raising questions about U.S. commitment to keep the weapons safe, secure, and reliable, and maintain its commitment to provide a nuclear umbrella to its allies around the world.
Join us as our guests discuss the continued importance of U.S. nuclear weapons for our national security in light of today's diverse challenges.

Answer from: Temato
I didn't understand how to do it. What is a white powder?
Answer from: Canp
This didn't work for me. Is there any specifics you need to have on
Answer from: smokedyeti
White powder is when you get a boost just as the snow is about to consume you. Go to Howling Hills. Freeze yourself in a block of ice and as the avalanche approaches tap out of it quickly which will give you a boost and hence a white powder rush.
Answer from: Lf
That was very easy, just freeze yourself and let the avalanche do the rest
Answer from: Ida
I tried the freezing thing, and it didn't work. I got a white powder rush on, while on the wolf, but it just said white powder rush.

Movie Info
An incredibly long but never dull adaptation of the Rachel Field best-seller, All This and Heaven Too was based on a once-notorious European scandal. Star Bette Davis, playing Henriette Deluzy-Desportes, is first seen as a French schoolteacher in a 19th century American seminary. When her supervisor, Reverend Henry Mortyn Field (Jeffrey Lynn), has questions to ask about her tainted past, Henriette relates her story in flashback. She had been hired by French duke De Praslin (Charles Boyer) to be the governess for his children. De Praslin's wife (Barbara O'Neil) was insanely jealous, so much so she inadvertently threw De Praslin and Henriette together. Henriette was willing to leave rather than cause more discord, but the influential wife vengefully refused to write a letter of recommendation (a bravura scene). Later, the impoverished Henriette was arrested as an accomplice in the murder of De Praslin's wife. The latter's position in French society stirred up volatile political ramifications, with Henriette innocently in the center of the storm. De Praslin committed suicide, exonerating Henriette on his deathbed, but she had already been condemned in the court of public opinion. Disgraced, she left for America to start life anew, which brings the story back to the present. Unable to continue running away from herself, Henriette confesses her past indiscretions to her students -- who promptly forgive her. Casey Robinson had a hell of a job adapting Rachel Field's cumbersome novel, but, by golly, he pulled it off. The performances in All This and Heaven Too are enhanced immeasurably by the lush Max Steiner musical score. … More

All Critics (6) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (5) | Rotten (1) | DVD (1)
It's a pretty long, gloomy haul, though lavishly mounted (with photography by Ernest Haller) and sensitively acted.
The film was critically acclaimed but because of its overlong 143 minutes and grim story line, it was not the blockbuster the studio hoped for.
Anatole Litvak directs with tact and restraint this period melodrama (a woman's picture) about a governess who falls for her employer-nobleman. Davis and Boyer are good, but it's Barbara O'Neil who stands out as Boyer's neurotic and obsessive wife.
Audience Reviews for All This, and Heaven Too
all this, and heaven too" is a tear-jerking over sentimentalized vehicle of miss bette davis, intended to showcase miss davis' caliber of benevolent characters instead of her trademarked roles as malevolent shrews like "little foxes", "jazebel" and "whatever happened to baby jane."..except the acting, everything about "all this, and heaven too" flops into a hygienized version of "jane eyre" without a bit of gothic allure, a tale of a prim governess' suppressed crush on her empolyer.
davis plays an idealistic young woman who comes to france serving an aristocratic family led by charles boyer, and she spreads warmth of love to his children that draws the bitter jealousy of the loveless wife(babara o'nell) who goes insane at any moment when the aristocrat endears the governess. then the fanatic wife gets rid of the governess then revenges her by not granting a letter of reference. eventually the aristocrat slaughters his wife in a fit of enormous rage.
the simmering romance between boyer and davis is like a smoldered stewed dish without emanation so it just stales with exceeding melodramaticity. the best moment in the flick would probably be the second charles boyer strikes barbara o'nell. and the children seem unpleasant with their galling sweetness, escpecially their pretentious french accent."
"all this, and heaven too" is a so-called woman's movie(or chic flick), but it all depends on whether you term womanhood as oppressive passion sealed under the conduction of puritanical virtues. perhaps an explosion would be more aggreeable than masochistic feminity.

What a lovely Bette Davis film. I am a very big Bette Davis fan and love especially her films in the 30's and 40's. Charles Boyer from "Gas Light" another film gem is very good in this. Bette plays a governess in the 1800's whom falls in love with the children's father (Charles Boyer) whose wife is very shrill and often seems cruel. It is on my list of Bette favs.More

Another brilliant Bette Davis performance that unfortunately is not often viewed as part of her "cannon" of good works.More

Bette Davis is one of the greatest actors who ever lived. She's great at being bad or good, although her good can sometimes be a little too sweet at times. This is one of them. She plays an innocent governess who works for the wrong couple at the wrong time. This was a well done tale based on the real life murder of Duchesse de Praslin. Boyer was excellent as the brooding Duc, but the show stealer was Barbara O'Neil playing the venomous Duchesse. Davis gets props for rocking a fantastic French accent. There is also something to be said for Bette's eyes, as they tell a story all on their own; and they are working overtime in this film. The childrens' performance was superb (even with the sons strong southern accent), as you really felt the love they had for their governess. A period piece that runs a little over 2 hours, which apparently was supposed to be about 3 hours. I can't imagine it running longer as some parts seemed to drag a bit as it was.More
