Nursing Medals and Graduation
- Jan 28, 2010
- Posted By: Norman D. W. MacDonald

My nursing course finished in November 1973.
The graduation ceremony was held on February 7, 1974. (36 years ago) in the Dining Hall on the main floor of the Nurses New Home (Hagley Hostel) at Christchurch Hospital.
There was much speculation about which nursing medal the few male students would receive.
I believe I was the first male student called. We had three male students graduating.
I was unable to see the medal as it was pinned on my nursing uniform. I saw it after I moved away from the presentation dias.
I was really pleased to see the NZRN medal hanging on my chest.
A man who graduated in the class before me came up to me, poked my medal and said "I heard you got that." He was not happy about it.
Although I was happy to receive the NZRN medal, I really wanted the "New Zealand Male Nurse" medal. I liked its design better.
I wrote the Nursing Council of New Zealand requesting the male nurse medal and it was granted.
So I ended up with both.
See Photos Tab for pictures on dining hall used for the grad ceremonies.
Mar 6, 2011 at 4:27 AMHi,
My dad is an RN in NZ, but didn't graduate here but in overseas, worked as a RN in NZ for 10yrs now.
He showed me the NZ nursing council Feb 2011 newsletter (Update)and told me that NZRN medals maybe on sale on trademe (pg.5 of newsletter), and asked me to keep an eye out, since he never got one graduating here.
Was wondering what you wrote to the NZ nursing council to get a male nurse medal - I think my dad would really love one.
I hope you can give me some pointers and help. It would be great if my dad could get both medals like what you did.

Nov 13, 2012 at 12:30 AMI honestly think it is better to be a failure at something you love than to be a success at something you hate.
Dec 12, 2012 at 2:44 AMIt is common for RNs to seek additional education to earn a Master of Science in Nursing or Doctor of Nursing Practice to prepare for leadership roles within nursing. Management positions increasingly require candidates to hold an advanced degree in nursing. Thanks.

But no, it wasn't a goal, and not long after, Betis was rewarded for their own persistence when Ruben Pérez smashed the ball into the top corner from 30 yards out to give the visitors a 2-1 lead just before half-time.

I have made the difficult decision to not try any hybridyzing this year. Instead, this is going to have to be a season of healing due to the late Big Easter Freeze and some early fungal issues, and finally lots of black cane dieback for whatever reasons. I have had to prune so many to the ground and not to mention the 30+ that I had that just out and out died.
I will do some cuttings and and any OP hips I get, but I definitely won't do any intentional crosses this year. Anyone else coming to that conclusion??? John |

It looks very promising for you garden buddies in the Joplin area. I hope it stays together until it gets to me. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hope you get some rain Christie. I just checked the radar and it's looking good for a little rain in Springfield. 80% chance tonight. woo hoo !!!! |
Got nada here so far today. Looks like it once again split and went around Joplin. Maybe later or today or tomorrow. Sigh. As I go out and turn on the sprinklers again. Sandy |
- Posted by christie_sw_mo Z6 (My Page) on Sat, Aug 25, 12 at 19:12
You got cheated Sandy. It really looked like it couldn't miss. We got a half-inch. It was dark to the north of me so Glenda might have gotten a good rain. Not much on the radar right now but they haven't lowered the odds for tonight and tomorrow so maybe it will come around again. Hope so. |
Glad some folks got some needed rain. It looked great here and ended up with maybe a tenth of an inch. Maybe tonite to tomorrow. I really thought Joplin was looking good but got missed. |
We got a quarter inch, max. Bummer! Lake of the Ozarks, near Sunrise Beach. |
- Posted by christie_sw_mo Z6 (My Page) on Mon, Aug 27, 12 at 10:09
Well I feel pretty lucky then. We got two more tenths early Sunday morning(?) for a grand total of 7/10. I thought there was supposed to be a chance of rain again today but there's no rain chances until Friday and the highs are going to be around 90 so still no fall planting for me. I'm sure the ground is quite dry underneath. |
I got l.6 inches and my friend in Joplin got over 2 inches. I am watching Issac. I am satisfied for now. I hope the bad pattern of everything going around us is over. |
I thought I responded....sorry. We got a full half inch. We are hoping Isaac will hit and track in the right way to give us some heavy rains. I realized something else that thrives in this weather: Bermuda Grass............I will be doing some mowing today. |
- Posted by sunnyside1 z6/SW Mo. (My Page) on Tue, Aug 28, 12 at 9:07
I got 1.6 inch. With you, I'm looking forward to forecasted rain Friday and Saturday. Local weatherman says we need/needed? 8.35 inches to catch up on normal Joplin rainfall. Maybe Isaac will help out. Meanwhile, yesterday I planted two 6 packs of lettuce and one of spinach plus mesclan seed for fall. Brussels sprouts are now ready to pull and the tomatoes have been leafing out again and have blossoms. Life goes on after a dry, hot summer, but I'll never forget it and my checkbook will certainly remember paying my water bills. |
Now the forecasts are getting scary, with the Gulf rains coming. 2-5 inches in one forecast, and another who thinks double that. Whoa. It will only be a narrow band getting that, but could cause really big problems. Hoping it's not us, but do hope we get a really good soaker. As I know you all do. :) The pseudo-husband farmer man gave me this input. What do you guys think? |
It all depends on whether or not you are in a flood prone area. I like to play in the water and can hardly wait. If my basement floods I won't be happy but I'm not worried about it. I do worry about the people in Louisanna. They showed them evacuating pets on the weather channel and old people from a nursing home. It makes me feel bad for those people. What would I do with six animals if I lived there. Here my animals could go up the hill and I don't have my mother to take care of with electricity off. Think of the old people with oxygen concentrators and CPAP machines. |
It's a nightmare for those folks. Thinking of it is just horrible, so I can't even imagine being there. And for many, it's not the first time. Tragic. I think Mother Nature is trying to say she wants the wetlands returned to wetlands. And I can't blame her, at the rate we're destroying the ecology of the planet. Sorry to rant. |

I have no idea why I'm second-guessing myself, but don't want to tell the carpenter the wrong thing for when he preps the doors. thanks. |

goes above the door knob. |
It depends on the locks that you have. I've been used to above the knob, however our multi point French doors require that the thumbturn be below the knob. |
- Posted by Renovator8 (My Page) on Wed, Oct 24, 12 at 4:50
In a mortise set the thumb turn would be part of the whole unit so a carpenter would not have a choice. |
- Posted by threeapples (My Page) on Wed, Oct 24, 12 at 7:59
This is a separate thing from the knob. We are doing these on some doors for privacy. |
- Posted by millworkman (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Wed, Oct 24, 12 at 8:04
Interior privacy I would probably go with beneath the knob. I was thinking of exterior like a deadbolt when I said above. |
- Posted by Renovator8 (My Page) on Wed, Oct 24, 12 at 9:22
If you mean a mortise privacy bolt with a thumb turn as linked below, it should go above the latching hardware for easy use. This is not a "latch"; it is a manual locking bolt and is not considered "privacy" hardware because it cannot be unlocked from the other side with a tool in an emergency. You should not put one on a child's door or a bathroom. |

Here is a thumbturn deadbolt lock with an emergency release button. |
Here is a link that might be useful: thumbturn bolt w/ emergency release
- Posted by threeapples (My Page) on Wed, Oct 24, 12 at 21:58
ours looks similar to the first one you posted, Renovator, and the hardware company said you can open it from the exterior. the hardware company said it should go below the interior knobs so it doesn't look like a deadbolt. i believe athensmom said she has these on her kids doors and you can get in from the outside. |
- Posted by Renovator8 (My Page) on Thu, Oct 25, 12 at 0:11
It IS a dead bolt so if that is something you don't want to see your decision has already been made. I would put it where I could see if it was locked or unlocked. |
- Posted by athensmomof3 (My Page) on Thu, Oct 25, 12 at 8:13
Ours is above the door knob. I think it would be hard to see/use if it was below. Ours you can get in from the outside. There is a brass panel that snaps off if you get a fingernail under it. Here are ours: We have a small knob and rosette. If your knob is larger or you have a larger backplate I would definitely do above the knob. |
Classically above the knob, with no access from outside the room. And we all survived hundreds of years that way. Interior doors are not all that solid, and the bolt throw barely makes it into the door casing. The are easily broken through in an emergency |
- Posted by threeapples (My Page) on Fri, Oct 26, 12 at 8:29
Thanks for the photo, athensmom. What are your doors made of? |
- Posted by athensmomof3 (My Page) on Fri, Oct 26, 12 at 15:13
They are MDF solid core, not molded but stile and rail construction, with wood stiles. They are made by Masionite but are not their more common "molded" MDF door. These are like the Trustile doors we looked at but quite a bit less. |
- Posted by athensmomof3 (My Page) on Fri, Oct 26, 12 at 15:15
The stipling you see is from the paint roller. I hate that but it is very unnoticable if you are more than 6" away. I wish I had asked them to use foam rollers instead or to brush paint it but oh well. . . I figure we will repaint the doors eventually. |
- Posted by threeapples (My Page) on Mon, Oct 29, 12 at 12:59
athens, my eyesight isn't good enough to notice the stipling. i think your doors look great. i asked about their material because i heard it was difficult to bore the necessary holes for these thumb latches into solid wood. |
- Posted by sombreuil_mongrel (My Page) on Mon, Oct 29, 12 at 14:06
Depends on if you mean a thumb latch or as most people have been presuming, a "thumb turn" they are distinct meanings to each types of mechanism. The deadbolt cylinder part is always above the exterior thumb latch on mortise locks that utilize them. Casey |

I have thick, salt & pepper (so it is somewhat coarse), curly hair (b/t 3A & 3B) that can only be washed once a week or is frizzes out but needs regular conditioning and typically, thick ones need only apply!
Compared to what I normally use (Bumble & Bumble Super Rich), this isn't comparable: It is thinner and the smell is more perfume-y. However, though I have to use a little bit more of the Suave, it works almost as well as the B&B, esp. when I am just throwing some on there for a quick conditioning after not washing.
I think it is still very important that I continue to use my B&B curl creme and some sort of decent mousse to style when wet, but as far as continuing to buy this conditioner, until it gives me a reason not to be, consider me SOLD!
I have troublesome hair (coarse, thick, home colored, tendency to be dry) and so I look for products that hold moisture, don't fade my color too terribly, and reduce frizz. I'm also pretty frugal so I try to find things that are not horribly expensive, although I've used everything from salon products down to drugstore. I've tried most of the Suave Professionals line, and I am a fan of the Damage Care (in the blue bottles). I had high hopes for the Humectant line. So far it is pretty decent. The shampoo is alright, but it isn't moisturizing at all. My hair feels somewhat stripped after use. Still, I've gone through entire bottle and my hair isn't horribly fried. If your hair is very dry or if you do a lot of heat styling or anything, this shampoo will more than likely be too drying for you. The conditioner is okay, and smells great. It leaves my hair feeling pretty hydrated and definitely makes up for the shampoo. It seems to be fairly hydrating, especially if your hair can tolerate the 'cones. I will probably repurchase simply because it does work alright and it is so darn cheap.
I'm only giving this 4 lippies because I haven't styled my hair after using it yet--but wow!! I have tried SO many expensive conditioners that don't do the job--Bed Head, MOP, Redken, etc. All of these cost anywhere from $15-$35. The Suave, however, is very comparable to Nexxus (which is also great), and the big bottle is $3! I have very thick, relaxed, ethnic hair is I used a lot, but who cares? I can always buy more! It was very easy for me to comb my hair in the shower and even after rinsing out the conditioner there were no tangles. If my hair doesn't get frizzy when it starts to dry, I'm def giving this one more lippie.
So far I really like this. I've used it for CO washing and as a rinse out with great results. Smells nicer than tropical coconut conditioner, because the smell is not as intense. Also Humectant is more moisturizing because it has some cones, but doesn't seem heavy, no build up on me yet. Cleans, conditions, detangles and gives body and nice shine.
A decent and cheap conditioner. Nice scent. Moisturizes my hair well but not anything super special--I wouldn't recommend this for those with super dry/brittle/damaged hair. I continue to buy it because it is so inexpensive and I'm trying to cut corners. If I wasn't watching my money, I'd buy my favorite--Biolage.

Suave Humectant conditioner is probably the most moisturizing conditioner I have ever used in my entire life. It's unbelievably wonderful and the price ($4 at my drug store) is shocking! It's supposed to be a dup for Nexxus Therappe. I have never tried Nexxus Therappe but this one defines my wavy hair in the most amazing way making it look almost curly! Most other conditioners make my hair just look very blah and my waves turn into sort of lifeless flat/wavy fluff. Not with this conditioner! I have eliminated the need for other leave-in conditioners I used to use to get the same result. This stuff is amazing! It's very thick and even when stored upside down it doesn't drip down so you have to shake it to get it out. Might be better with a pump. Has a coconut scent. I will keep buying this conditioner as long as it's being made and I hope to God that Suave never discontinues this.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I love this product! I am on my second bottle :)
At first I used it as a regular, rinse out conditioner in the shower. It smelled great and made my hair soft. However, I have started using a different conditioner combo that I love and leaves my hair with a lot less tangles right out of the shower.
So I decided to try this as a leave-in conditioner, and this is where it really shines! Makes my hair very, very soft. Leaves it shiny and with a lot less frizz. It even makes me ends feel less crunchy/fried, they feel like real hair! It also leaves a nice scent in my hair, but nothing over powering.
Overall I would definitely recommend this as the worlds cheapest leave in conditioner, as well as a regular conditioner in the shower.
I got this along with the matching shampoo. I like that it is inexpensive and it smells nice. After I rinse out the conditioner my hair feels quenched. But as the day goes on, I notice that my hair loses volume and starts to go flat. I've determined this conditioner is weighing my hair down, so I doubt I will be purchasing this again.

This stuff is really nice. A super light conditioner that somehow gives a really deep conditioning. My hair is always super soft and shiny afterwards. Will definitely repurchase.

Lincecum repeats as Cy Young winner
NEW YORK -- Talk about a freak -- Tim Lincecum needed just 15 wins to bag another NL Cy Young Award.
Yup, throw out those old baseball cards. Wins and losses don't mean much anymore when it comes time for voters to pick baseball's best pitchers. It's all about WHIP, FIP, BABIP and other lines of alphabet soup.
"It's turned into a game of complete numbers and statistics and what people do with that," Lincecum said.
Lincecum won the Cy Young Award on Thursday for the second straight year, emerging from one of the tightest votes in the history of the honor to become the first repeat winner since Randy Johnson.
NL Cy Young Voting
Giants ace Tim Lincecum had enough support across the voting board to win his second straight NL Cy Young Award. A breakdown of the voting:
Player, team | 1st-place votes | Total |
Tim Lincecum, Giants | 11 | 100 |
Chris Carpenter, Cardinals | 9 | 94 |
Adam Wainwright, Cardinals | 12 | 90 |
Others receiving votes: Javier Vazquez, Braves; Dan Haren, Diamondbacks. |
Only 10 points separated the top three vote-getters. Chris Carpenter was second and St. Louis teammate Adam Wainwright finished third despite getting the most first-place votes.
Lincecum, nicknamed "The Freak" for his giant stride, led the NL with 261 strikeouts and tied for the league lead with four complete games and two shutouts.
The wiry right-hander attracts plenty of attention on the mound with his shoulder-length brown hair and twisting delivery. But it was his 15 victories -- the fewest for a Cy Young starter over a non-shortened season -- that were really noticeable for the award winner.
The 2009 honors for Lincecum and Kansas City Royals ace Zack Greinke reflect a recent shift in how pitchers are evaluated. The focus has changed to more developed statistics, including some that even take into account team defense.
Greinke equaled the previous low of 16 wins for a non-shortened season when he won the AL award on Tuesday. Afterward, he talked all about FIP, a mathematician's dream that stands for Fielding Independent Pitching.
Lincecum has his own favorite indicator.
"To say which one I look to the most, I would just say WHIP," he said, referring to walks plus hits allowed per inning, "just because you just limit the amount of baserunners that can hurt you."
Law: How I voted
ESPN.com Insider Keith Law had a vote in the National League Cy Young balloting. Who'd he have...and why? He explains. Story
• Law on All Night on ESPN Radio
• Neyer's Sweet Spot: Cy Young shift?
Lincecum is facing misdemeanor marijuana charges stemming from a traffic stop in his home state of Washington on Oct. 30. No questions were allowed about the incident in his conference call, but he acknowledged making a mistake and apologized in a prepared statement.
"I know that as a professional athlete I have a responsibility to conduct myself appropriately both on and off the field," he said. "I certainly have learned a valuable lesson through all of this and I promise to do better in the future.
"I hope and expect that the matter will be resolved soon. In the meantime I am focused on preparing for the 2010 season."
Lincecum received 11 first-place votes, 12 seconds and nine thirds for 100 points in balloting released by the Baseball Writers' Association of America. Carpenter had nine firsts, 14 seconds and seven thirds to take second with 94.
Wainwright, who led the NL with 19 wins and 233 innings, had 12 first-place votes, five seconds and 15 thirds for 90 points. Trevor Hoffman, who finished behind Tom Glavine in 1998, is the only other player to get the most firsts and not win the award.
"The guys I was going up against, Wainwright and Carpenter, had tremendous seasons," the 25-year-old Lincecum said. "It was a lucky one for me. I'll take them as I come I guess."
Two voters, Will Carroll of Baseball Prospectus and Keith Law of ESPN.com, did not include Carpenter on their ballots. Carroll had Wainwright in the top spot, Lincecum second and Arizona's Dan Haren third. Law voted for Lincecum, Atlanta's Javier Vazquez and Wainwright in third. Those were the only votes for Haren and Vazquez.
The six-point gap between Lincecum and Carpenter is tied for the third-closest in the NL since the ballot expanded to three pitchers in 1970. The 10-point margin from first to third is the second-closest for the NL ballot.
Lincecum, who had a $650,000 salary and is headed for a big raise now that he's eligible for arbitration, did not have any bonus provision for winning the award. Carpenter receives $100,000 for finishing second, Wainwright $100,000 for winding up third and Vazquez $70,000 for being voted fourth.
Lincecum teamed with Matt Cain to give the Giants a strong 1-2 punch at the top of their rotation, helping them stay in contention all year in one of baseball's biggest surprises. He went 15-7 with a 2.48 ERA in 32 starts and 225 1-3 innings.
Johnson, Lincecum's teammate this year in San Francisco, Greg Maddux and Sandy Koufax are the only other NL pitchers to win consecutive Cy Young Awards. Maddux (1992-95 with the Cubs and Braves) and Johnson (1999-2002 with the Diamondbacks) each won four straight, and Koufax was honored in 1965 and 1966 for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
The 5-foot-11, 170-pound Lincecum made his major league debut in 2007 and is 40-17 with a 2.90 ERA in three seasons.

By: | pigs3663 (Western Springs, IL, December 9, 2010) |
Review: | I bought this for my husband; the serenity prayer is one of his favorites. I wish the pendant itself was a little larger, since I did buy it for a man, but he wears it with a St. Christopher medal that he's worn for 23 years. The chain that came with it is nice, but the clasp wouldn't open at all. Luckily I didn't need it anyway, since I had planned on him wearing it with his St. Christopher medal. Best Uses: Everyday; Cons: Difficult To Clasp; Pros: Meaningful, Pretty, Unique |

Biofuels:What Place in Our Energy Future? (Released April 2009)
But what exactly are biofuels? Answers.com defines them as fuels "produced from renewable biological resources such as plant biomass and treated municipal and industrial waste." Ethanol, the most common biofuel, "can be made from any source of fermentable sugars" (Bryner). However a simple definition of biofuels does not tell us much; the devil is in the details, the diversity of biofuel sources and how they're grown and processed. To understand what biofuel or combination of biofuels might be most effective in solving energy problems and reducing environmental impact requires studying a bewildering variety of products.
For contemporary ethanol in the developed world, the biofuels most easily produced on a mass scale, such as corn ethanol, have high life cycle costs. Sugar cane, widely used in Brazil, is far more efficient than corn at producing energy, yet even it is controversial. Cellose ethanol is touted as part of the "second generation" of biofuels, employing agricultural "waste" as well as vegetation that can be grown on less-than-prime agricultural land. However, cellulose material resists breakdown to be used for fuel.
Finally biofuel from algae, perhaps the "generation after next" biofuel, seems to take one of the most common forms of plant life, and convert it into a potent source of energy. Yet getting the right strains of algae to grow in the quanties needed is difficult.

January 3, 2013: A recent study led by Christine Moon, a professor of psychology at Pacific Lutheran University and published in the journal Acta Paediatrica, found that infants only hours old show a distinct interest in vowels of a language that were not their mother's tongue.
Moon said to Science Daily, "We have known for over 30 years that we begin learning prenatally about voices by listening to the sound of our mother talking," Moon said. "This is the first study that shows we learn about the particular speech sounds of our mother's language before we are born."
According to Science Daily, researchers tested two groups: one, 40 infants (7-75 hours old) born in Tacoma, Washington; the other, 40 infants born in Stockholm, Sweden.
Each newborn was given a pacifier to suck on; the pacifier was connected to a computer. Researchers measured the newborns' responses to the sounds of vowels in English and Swedish by how long the infants continued to suck. The newborns could control how many times they heard the vowels by sucking continuously on the pacifier: they would hear the same vowel until they paused from sucking. Once they started sucking again, they would hear a different vowel. The amount of time they sucked on their pacifiers was used to demonstrate what vowels attracted their attention.
According to the journal Acta Paediatrica, the results showed that in each group, the infants responded to the unfamiliar nonnative language with higher average sucks. They responded more (by sucking more) to unfamiliar vowels then they did when they heard familiar vowels. For example, the newborns in Sweden sucked more and paused less when they were listening to English vowels.

"This took me longer than 20 minutes to make but that was because I did not get the baked tofu and I marinaded it in the flavoring mixture then cooked it in the pan on low heat for about an hour so that it would get a "thick skin." I used carrots, cauliflower, broccoli, bell pepper, and celery and they came out very nicely."

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Dora, a Tumwater Terrier (Unknown Type, Small)/Dachshund dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Terrier (Unknown Type, Small)/Dachshund for sale in Tumwater, or seeking a Terrier (Unknown Type, Small)/Dachshund dog from a breeder in Tumwater.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Tumwater already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Tumwater breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Terrier (Unknown Type, Small)/Dachshund breeders who help with Terrier (Unknown Type, Small)/Dachshund rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Tumwater paves the way for another one to be saved.

Customer Reviews
OMG, my husband and I purchased your Homestyle Frozen Waffles and it's now our new favorite thing to have for breakfast. We don't have to add syrup since we have fruit on the side. Thank you for generating such a healthy and delicious breakfast item. I just tagged you on my Instagram pic! Hope you see it. :)
I was a huge waffle fan and then I started watching my gluten intake. For the longest time I couldn't find a waffle that I could stand. I was lucky enough to stumble on these and now they are the only waffles I will eat. I cheated awhile back with a non gluten free waffle and surprise surprise these waffles are better. Much better.
THese waffles are delicious and taste exactly like the regular waffles-no one will suspect that they are gluten free . when you toast them they have a wonderful buttery aroma and are perfect consistency without being squishy or gritty!

PCMark 7
Version and / or Patch Used: 1.04
Developer Homepage: http://www.pcmark.com
Product Homepage: http://www.pcmark.com
PCMark 7 includes a range of tests that give different views of your system's performance. In the Advanced Edition you can choose which tests to run. The common use and hardware component tests are unavailable in the Basic Edition.
Overall system performance is measured by the PCMark test. This is the only test that returns an official PCMark score. The Lightweight test measures the system capabilities of entry-level systems and mobility platforms unable to run the PCMark test, but it does not generate a PCMark score. Common use performance is measured by the scenario tests - Entertainment, Creativity and Production - each of which results in a scenario score. Hardware component performance is measured by the hardware tests - Computation and Storage - each of which results in a hardware score.
Version and / or Patch Used: 6.5

MediaEspresso is a blazingly fast media universal converter that can transcode your videos, photos and music files and out put them to a huge range of portable devices including mobile phones, portable media players and even game consoles. With technologies like Smart Detect, Direct Sync and CyberLink's TrueTheater video enhancements, you can not only forget about complicated format, resolution and output settings, but your converted file will come out the other side looking better than when it went in!
PCMark 7 continues to be a little funny on the X79 platform and you can see out of the box it sits a little lower here. Overclocked we do see a nice little boost in performance, though, which equates to a gain of over 10%.
MediaEspresso performance on the other hand is really good. Out of the box we can see it's stronger than a lot of the other motherboards here and we can see that number gets only better when we move to the higher clock speed via the overclock.

First Light's reputation in the nonprofit community prompted the inception of our Shelter Plus Care program. We were asked to find funding for and begin a Shelter Plus Care program. This is a collaborative program combining the efforts of First Light, Pathways and the Jefferson County Housing Authority with First Light acting as the lead agency and providing the direct supportive services.
First Light has hired a Shelter Plus Care Social Worker as of Summer of 2007. This Social Worker is assigned the daunting tasks of:
Identifying women who may be qualified for the program (i.e. those who are homeless due to a disabling condition)
Helping these women apply for housing vouchers from the Housing Authority
Locating and filling out an application for an apartment that meets the qualifications of the program
Obtaining an inspection of the apartment
Moving in and setting up the household
Making sure the women do everything necessary to keep their apartment
In our holistic approach to ending homelessness, we have learned that supportive services are the key to achieving deeper and longer-lasting effects. The women we encounter on a daily basis have an inner strength which, if nurtured, empowers them to make significant growth and change. It is to this end that the Social Worker directs all of her activities.
The Shelter Plus Care Social Worker conducts monthly Life Skills classes which the women in the program are required to attend. The Social Worker also makes regular home visits, phone calls and makes sure that the women recertify their housing vouchers each year.
