Digital Radio UK Claims "Milestone" in Digital Listening -- Critics Disagree
Proponents of DAB in the UK are boasting a major breakthrough in listening, says John Plunkett in a May 2010report in the Guardian UK. According to Q1 2010 numbers recently released by the Radio Joint Audience Research (RAJAR) organization that measures and profiles the audiences of UK radio stations, the share of digital listening in the UK jumped from 20.9 percent in Q4 2009 to 24 percent in Q1 2010.
Among the big winners is the BBC's Radio 6 -- an eclectic DAB-only rock channel that netted a whopping 47 percent gain in listener share over Q4 2009. Commercial classic rocker Absolute radio also posted a heady 37 percent increase.
Ironically, Radio 6 is likely to become history as the BBC prepares to absorb massive budget cuts -- now a near-certainty since elections recently toppled England's Labor Party government.
But DAB critics say the overall numbers may be little misleading, since they actually represent the sum total of all digital audio broadcast listening, including DTV, DAB and Internet radio. Analyst and DAB detractor Grant Goddard faults glowing mainstream press reports on the RAJAR data for not mentioning that average TSL for radio in the UK continued to fall throughout the period and that any growth is a result of immigration swelling the UK's population base, as opposed to per capita growth in radio listening, digital or otherwise.
In any case, Digital Radio UK CEO Ford Ennals appears to find a lot to like in the RAJAR ratings, calling them really encouraging and a milestone in Britain's progress toward achieving the goals set forth in the country's recently adopted Digital Economy Act.

"Mediocris Scholaris": The Average Student Scholarship Contest
Posted: January 9, 2013 Filed under: College Students, Education, Scholarships | Tags: average student, college, college education, college humor, college scholarships, college students, education, gpa, scholarships, university Comments Off
Whether you're preparing to attend college or you're already there, you'll probably have figured out by now that applying for scholarships to fulfill that expensive education is almost as difficult and as time consuming as attaining the degree itself. With the massive amount of competition out there, you might feel you have about the same chances of attaining a scholarship as you do of winning some sort of sweepstakes; there will always be somebody smarter, luckier, more talented or more involved in school than you to snatch the prize. It's hard to be that student in the middle, believe me, I know. As I found out when I was applying to universities, my parents (who were by no means "well-off") earned too much for me to receive any government aid, while my grades (a 4.3 GPA) were caught in a no-man's land in the scholarship world–not as high as my valedictorian friend's, not as low as the struggling students' who were given opportunities to break the cycle and go to college (quite rightly).
But in all of that, I ended up with scholarship fatigue. It felt like it'd never be me receiving the helping hand. How I wish the following scholarship had existed back then, when I could've been granted a scholarship for doing what I do best–being me.
College Humor is offering two students the opportunity to win $5,000 a piece. The requirement? Be that typical student caught in the middle.
Did you sign up for 3 clubs but never attend meetings? Is your GPA a 2.1? Would some of your professors have a hard time remembering if you were in their class? If so, enter now! We hope you're not exceptional.
If you're looking for ways to pay for college and are coming up short, definitely give this scholarship a go. What's the downside of rejection, after all? That you're not average enough? Head over to the scholarship's home page to watch a funny video and find out more on how to apply. Good luck!
For Students: The Keys to a Happy Dorm Life
Posted: August 28, 2012 Filed under: College Students, Education | Tags: college, dorm life, dorms, students, university Comments OffNow that summer has drawn to a close and the school year has arrived, many of you will have left the nest for the first time and moved into that staple of college comedy: the dorm. As a recent college graduate and an employee of the front desk of a residence hall for nearly two years, I've asked my coworkers what they would like to tell incoming freshmen about dorm life. If they could give you one piece of advice, this is what they would tell you:
"Force yourself to be social. This is the one time of year when everyone is trying to make friends, so this is the best time to meet as many people as possible. A lot of your friends can be found right on your floor." –Anum K., Fourth Year
The first few weeks of college will be a nebulous period in which everyone is feeling out of their depth. Everyone is overwhelmed, no matter how confident they seem, and the first thing people seek is a friend to help them figure things out. Use this as an exciting opportunity. You will never encounter another situation like this, where hundreds or thousands of people are looking for friends at the same time. Meeting masses of people may be intimidating, especially to you Socially Awkward Penguins out there, but it can be incredibly helpful. Some tips to help you do so:
- "Invest in a fork." –Lixa C., Third Year
This may seem really weird, but it is actually an incredibly useful piece of advice. In my dorm we pilfered forks from the dining hall and bent them in half to use as doorstops. This is especially useful when you live in a long hallway where everyone can see your door and vice versa. It lets people know that you're open to socializing and encourages them to stop in and introduce themselves. You won't be the only one doing this, I promise. I got to know nearly every person on my freshman floor by doing this.
- "If your roommate sucks, MOVE." –Aime A., Fourth Year
There is a time limit on this one. A couple of weeks into the semester, there should be some sort of room-swap event where you can switch with another person. If you walk in and instantly know you and your roommate won't get along, don't force yourself to suffer through an entire year of living with one another. It will eliminate the chance to find a friend and make your daily life stressful. My freshman roommate is my best friend, bar none. You are not doomed to have a crazy roommate. But act quickly; if you miss this event, it is unlikely you will be able to switch easily midway through the year.
- "Use it as a time to get to know everyone while they're in one place."–Erika F., Graduate
This isn't like high school, where you only have a certain amount of time between classes during the day to get to know people. Living in a dorm means that there are people of your age group living five feet away from you. They go to class with you. They eat in the same places. They study in the same places. You could step out of your door at two in the morning and it is likely that there will be someone there. They might not be the ideal candidate, but you have ample time and opportunity to find people who are.
"No studying is ever done in study lounges." –Victor S., Fourth Year
My floor study lounge freshman year was many things. It was the first door you encountered when entering the floor, and a natural meeting spot. It was a safe haven if you grew stir crazy in your room. It was the place where you could pass out after a Thursday night adventure in the frat houses. It was the place where the boisterous, ragtag group of freshmen from my floor stored their trophies from these nights out (including, but not limited to: a wheelchair, an upright piano, a white board, a chair from In-N-Out, the couch from the floor above us, and so on).
It was not, by any stretch of the imagination, a place where you could study.
Even if your floor isn't something out of Animal House like mine was, you are bound to get distracted if you try to study in a lounge. There will always be someone popping their head in, or a group of people playing cards, or any number of things that can break your concentration in an instant. Find alternatives. The dorm we work in has private study rooms that can be rented out for a two-hour period. We also have a massive lecture room where the unspoken law is silence. Coffee shops have free WiFi and caffeine to keep you going. I am the rare breed of person who can actually study in my room without falling asleep, but I usually don't recommend that method to others. If all else fails, there's always the library. Find out what works for you and stick to it.
And if you really want to study in your lounge, I leave you with this advice:
"Buy ear plugs." – Danay I., Fourth Year
Daily Life
- "Don't smoke in the dorm. Because you will get written up. And you will die." – Kyle B., Second Year
College isn't all about studying, nor is it about the massive amounts of partying you'll see in college comedies. In between there are little moments of everyday life as you struggle to adjust to living on your own for the first time in your life. If you're well prepared, it'll be easier on you. If not, here are some tips:
- "Food. Food everywhere." – Eddie A., Third Year
Our dining halls were all-you-can-eat buffets, and were ranked among the best in the nation. They also come with the added bonus of a wide variety of food with little effort required to get it. This, ladies and gentlemen, is the cause of the infamous Freshman Fifteen. So maybe instead of helping yourself to that third basket of fries, go for the salad instead. And while pizza every day for a month might sound awesome, your scale doesn't think so and neither will that cute girl who sits next to you in your Intro to Econ class.
- "Get used to having a roommate." – Eric W., Fourth Year
Cohabitation is not easy, no matter how well you get along with your roommate. It's hard to be conscious and considerate of another person's needs while juggling your own obligations and stress. But remember the Golden Rule and don't blast music while your roommate is trying to study or sleep, and don't invite your significant other over and whisper late into the night when they have early class the next day. Yes, it is your room and technically you can do what you want, but it's their room as well and making their life difficult might have repercussions in the form of spiders in your bed. Just saying, they know where you sleep.
- "Don't bother buying new clothes. You'll look like crap in class anyway and so will everyone else." – Danay I., Fourth Year
You might try to look good for the first few weeks of class. But all it takes is one day of sleeping through your alarm and sprinting to class in your Donald Duck PJs for you to stumble upon that magical realization: Nobody Cares. Seriously. As long as the important bits are covered, you could walk into class looking like a complete lunatic and no one will bat an eye. My freshman year, I had a class in a meeting room located in my own building. I used to wake up five minutes before class, toss my hair up in a hair tie, and stroll into class with thirty seconds to spare without changing out of my pajamas. I didn't even put on shoes. Of course, there are always exceptions to the rule, so hang on to those ratty high school sweatpants until at least a couple of weeks in. That said…
- "Do laundry more than once a semester." – Logan L., Second Year
Laundry can be a pain. It's time consuming, tedious, and the nearest laundry room might be on the other side of the building. When you get there you might find that every single washer is occupied and you'll have to wait even longer to snag the next one. At my college quarters are worth their weight in gold, and usually anyone who asks for them at our desk past noon on a Saturday is out of luck as we don't get a change order on the weekends. With that said, you are a grownup. People might not care what you look like in class, but they'll expect you to practice basic hygiene. This goes for finals week as well. You'd think I wouldn't have to tell people that. You'd be wrong. Make sure you and your clothes are clean (and no, spraying your unmentionables with Febreze won't cut it).
Parting Words
I'll leave you with my own piece of advice. If I could tell incoming freshmen just one thing, it would be this: don't limit your friendly interactions to other students. Make friends with the people who work in your building. The front desk staff. The housekeepers. The dining hall people. The RAs and other residential life staff. There is no downside to this. You'll be more knowledgeable about your building. You might get a favor every now and then. And you'll make their day better by seeing them as something more than some drone there to service you. A lot of the time working in a dorm can seem like a thankless task, and when someone tells us to have a nice day or gives us a genuine "thank you" it can make all the difference. I have met so many wonderful people who work in the dorms, and it doesn't matter whether that relationship manifests itself in free swipes for food or just a smile as I walk down the hall. Become a part of your community. Don't neglect someone just because they play a different role in the dorm life than you.
As with many aspects of college, you'll get out what you put into your dorm experience. I had the time of my life while living in the dorms, but I didn't do that by staying cooped up in my room bent over my textbooks every spare minute of the day, nor by neglecting my schoolwork until I was too stressed to enjoy myself. It's all about striking a balance.
Thanks so much to my coworkers for offering their advice. They are a huge part of what has made my dorm experience so awesome. #sproullifeforlife!

Instructions: The optimisation of the positioning time is possible with firmware version V3.07.05 and higher
With short positioning distances in combination with a parameterisation of relatively high accelerations (MD42-MD45) positioning is executed in a few FM-Cycles.
In previous software versions it was possible that depending on the programmed distance, positioning time could occur that are higher than the calculated times. It is possible that reducing the distance by e.g. the distance of one step of the stepper motor increases the positioning time by multiple FM-Cycles instead of reducing it or remaining the same.
In connection with this behaviour it might also be possible that incorrect positioning occurs, although this has never been experienced so far.
With firmware version V3.07.05 it is possible to change the mode of the FM353 to an optimised positioning profile.
Parameterisation to change the FM353 to the optimised positioning mode:
Positioning mode
Standard positioning profile
Optimised positioning profile
The MD56 is set to Zero (0) by default. This enables the standard positioning profile, which is used in previous firmware versions. The parameterisation of MD56 with value 1 to enable the optimised positioning profile can only be done via MD-table of the parameterisation tool. There is no range checking or error message for invalid values entered in MD56. Invalid values activate the standard positioning profile.

Ascutney man fined for firing gunBy ERIC FRANCIS
CORRESPONDENT | May 20,2013photo ERIC FRANCIS
Charles Johnson, 60, of Ascutney was fined $750 Thursday for firing shots into the floor of his home last November after he got into an argument with family members over who was going to cook dinner.WHITE RIVER JUNCTION An Ascutney man was fined $750 for firing at least four gunshots into the living room floor of his home during an argument that took place in November with his wife and daughter about whether or not he was going to cook his own dinner.
Charles Johnson, 60, pleaded guilty to amended charges of disorderly conduct Thursday during a hearing at the criminal courthouse in White River Junction.
Windsor County States Attorney Michael Kainen explained to Judge Robert Gerety that after conducting depositions the state had decided to drop the original felony charges of first-degree aggravated domestic assault and amend the original reckless endangerment charges because the victims in the case did not actually feel threatened.
Whether by accident or to add emphasis, a gun was fired into the floor, Kainen explained to Gerety, but, he added, While both wife and daughter said Mr. Johnson was tumultuous, swearing at them, and fired a gun in the house, the gun was not pointed at them and they never felt they were at risk of serious bodily injury or death.
Kainen said the offenses that Saturday evening, which were committed while Johnson was extremely intoxicated, prompted a large law enforcement response to Gird Lot Road in Ascutney which in itself amounted to a substantial public inconvenience, which is a key element of Vermonts disorderly conduct statute.
Gerety commended both Kainen and Johnsons defense attorney, Bill Whitten, for skillful lawyering as he accepted the amended plea deal. After Johnson was successfully talked into surrendering peacefully to the contingent of troopers, police and wardens that were surrounding his house that November evening, officers learned that Johnson had originally snapped after his wife had asked him if he wanted supper and he said he would get his own (expletive) supper and the confrontation escalated from there, police said.MORE IN This Just InStaff Report Full StoryKILLINGTON -- Two people were badly hurt in a head-on collision caused by a drunken driver Monday...

We are what we choose to be.Daniel Collinsworth
This past Thanksgiving weekend, I got to spend some time with my family my parents, my brother, and my sister-in-law, all of whom I love very much.
In the midst of the laughing and good times we had, I felt a heaviness bubbling up from deep within me. As it surfaced slowly, cumbersomely I felt an unshakeable sadness covering me. An old sadness, one that had been hibernating for years.
I became haunted by years worth of memories, from childhood onward of not being a good son, of not being a good big brother. Things I said and did that have left irreparable scars. It was all still there, like a briar patch in my heart and mind.
I felt overcast and morose. I drank to numb these feelings so that I could enjoy my time with my family. I felt unbearably heavy. Big, hot streams of tears came as I lay in bed that night.
Finding Center and the One Real Truth
As I set out on the hour drive back home that weekend, I allowed myself to sit with these feelings that had surfaced. Sadness, yes. Regret. The anger that I was feeling toward myself. The excruciating reality that I couldn't go back and change any of it.
Once I got home, I retreated to a deep breathing meditation. I connected with that central still point, around which the entire Universe revolves. It eased my suffering and brought clarity into my awareness.
I observed the following conversation unfolding in my mind:
What's done is done I can't change it. I can move forward from here. I can be the man I know in my heart I want to be. The man I know, deep inside, that I am. I am. I am.
And as I just kept repeating "I am" in my mind and throughout my being, I became sharply, freshly aware that it was the only real truth in all of the Universe.
I am. I am. I am.
The sadness, the regret, the heartache illusions. It was my choice to let them take up residence in my consciousness, or to let them go.
To let them go forever, and to just be I am. Not I was or I could've been.
So I chose I am. I let that old sadness go. I released it like a kite flying high into the sky, smaller and smaller until it disappeared from view.
Forgiveness knows your name, and is waiting for you.
Today, you have a choice. To be I was or I am. And the true beauty of it is, you are who you choose to be. This moment. You just choose, right now, and begin walking in the I am.
You can't rewrite the past. But you can write the story of today. Today, you are who you choose to be.
Today, you are free.

How to Repair the Rubberised Curtains of a Shutter
A simple way to repair the holes (more or less deep) in the rubberised curtains of a shutter. Often these holes are located on the second curtain, that is rolled up when the shutter is not cocked, causing annoying light leaks. With a little patience it is possible to repair it, reviving cameras otherwise destined only to be shown in a cabinet.

Landscape contractor work people inadvertently cut off a struggling 4 year old tree peony several days ago (May 20). I have located the tuber and left it in the ground whilst I search for advice on saving the plant. There is nothing remaining of the foliage or stem - just the tuber. Please offer any suggestions on getting the tuber through the summer alive!
Thank you. |
Follow-Up Postings:
The only advice is to plant it deep 6 or so inches below the surface. What you have is the nurse root of a grafted tree peony. Plant in an area that will not be disturbed for several years and mark it well. If you are lucky the tree peony stem that should be inside the bundle of roots will send up a new shoot. I might also ask for a replacement tree peony from the landscape company if you had pointed out that you did not want that plant disturbed. If you told them nothing you will have to remember next time you had landscaping done. You should of course point out to the company what a tree peony is so they hopefully will be more careful in the future. |
Thank you for your response. I'll hope for the best. |

Things were hectic that's for sure, and a lot of people were hurt, but thank you for the response. However I doubt fans will be satisfied with the apology unless a riot staffer issues one wearing a bear suit

What has been seen and done cannot be unseen or undone... sure its a slap on the wrist for the players who did/did not intentionally/unintentionally turned around during matches....but the fact is, as explained by reginald in his video, what was seen, whether by will or accident, cannot be undone, and AZF saw the TSM lv 1 strategy against them. What were they to do?? honorably take the throw and accept being first blooded and start badly?? or use the information they acquired to their advantage... what would you guys do :/
As far as an offline LAN goes, League is not designed like that ATM. There is no offline LAN mode in Riot's possession, or officially sanctioned. Everything is run from servers. As far as TSM AF goes, I really wanted to see TSM win as well. Fact of the matter is, AF pulled some unfair acts, should be sanctioned for it, but still soundly defeated TSM throughout the game. If there can be evidence of them cheating further into the game, then punish them hard. But as of right now, they should see some S3 sanction of some form, and move on. All of TSM admit they did not play up to par in those games. I would still like to find out that AF was cheating more, though. TSM being brought back in would be amazing. Just not likely or called for, so complaining about it makes little difference.
Just for the lolz. Please make a day 3 recap.
I have to ask Redbeard, why are you guys refusing to use booths? These will completely remove ANY chance of cheating. They won't hear things, they won't see things, it just makes sense. I get you want the player interaction with the audience to be there, but why not just have them out of the booth PRE-game then, and have them set up before hand. This just makes way more sense instead of risking overhearing anything or sneaking peeks at the minimap.

For the past three weeks, I've been going to a personal trainer. I realize that's not very long, but according to my muscles, it's nigh near forever. I am not entirely averse to exercise. In certain contexts I like it — like when I'm playing soccer or dancing all up in the clurb. But when given the choice between working out and eating a taco, well, tacos win every time.
A few months ago, I got on the scale for the first time in years and it was traumatizing. I'm one of those people who goes to the doctor and specifically tells the nurse not to tell how much I weigh, because I'm super neurotic and will just fixate on it. That's how much this crap bothers me. But this time I looked and discovered I'd gained an undisclosed but alarming amount of weight in the six years that I've lived in New York. What's worse: I felt soft and mushy and lazy and just not comfortable in my own body. (And yeah, I know that's not a ton, but it is kind of a lot when you're only 5 feet tall. Oh, how I envy you tall ladies who can evenly distribute weight all over your lanky frames. There is no place for it to go on me.) Keep reading »

National Cervical Screening Program Renewal
See below for information on:
- Renewal Background
- Medical Services Advisory Committee recommendations
- Key Information
- Partner Reference Group
- Consultations - PRG Forum presentation
Renewal Background
- The Renewal is a strategy for reviewing the policy and operation of the National Cervical Screening Program (NCSP).
- The aim of the Renewal is to ensure that all Australian women, human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccinated and unvaccinated, have access to a cervical screening program that is acceptable, effective, efficient and based on current evidence.
- The science of cancer is one of the most rapidly changing areas in health and while the success of the NCSP cannot be disputed, the environment in which the program operates has changed.
- Since the introduction of the NCSP in 1991, there is new evidence about the optimal screening age range and interval; the HPV vaccine has become available; and there have been developments in new technologies for the early detection of cervical cancer.
- The Standing Committee on Screening (SCoS) of the Australian Health Ministers' Advisory Committee (AHMAC) is overseeing the Renewal and a Renewal Steering Committee is guiding the process.
- The Standing Committee on Screening is a jurisdictional committee. The Renewal Steering Committee is comprised of cervical screening experts in the fields of gynaecological oncology, pathology, cytology, epidemiology, general practice and nursing as well as Commonwealth and state and territory government representatives and a consumer advocate.
- Input and feedback is also sought through a Partner Reference Group that is open to all stakeholders including industry, health professionals and consumers.
- The Renewal commenced in November 2011 and is:
- Assessing the evidence for screening tests and pathways, the screening interval, age range and commencement for both HPV vaccinated and non-vaccinated women.
- Determining a cost-effective screening pathway and program model.
- Investigating options for improved national data collection systems and registry functions to enable policy, planning, service delivery and quality management.
- Assessing the feasibility and acceptability of the renewed program for women.
- The assessment of the evidence and economics of potential screening pathways, tests and intervals is now complete and was considered by the Medical Services Advisory Committee (MSAC) on 4 April 2014.
- It is anticipated that any changes following agreement by governments will not be implemented prior to 2016.
Medical Services Advisory Committee recommendations
The MSAC recommendations build upon the world's first national school-based HPV vaccination programme by recommending the establishment of the world's first national cervical screening programme, using a primary HPV test, to prevent cervical cancer. They also provide an opportunity to further reduce incidence and mortality from cervical cancer.The Assessment Reports considered by MSAC are below (and are to be read with the two Statements dated 13 June 2014 and 26 June 2014). Statement 13 June 2014 (DOCX 15 KB) | Statement 13 June 2014 (PDF 257 KB)

Errata - 9 April 2014 (DOCX 595KB) | (PDF 1.55 MB)
Errata - 15 May 2014 (DOCX 47KB) | (PDF 110 KB)
The MSAC public summary documentation including the recommendations is available on the MSAC website.
The MSAC recommendations include:
- five-yearly cervical screening using a primary human papillomavirus (HPV) test with partial HPV genotyping and reflex liquid-based cytology (LBC) triage, for HPV vaccinated and unvaccinated women 25 to 69 years of age, with exit testing of women 70 to 74 years of age;
- self-collection of an HPV sample, for an under-screened or never-screened woman, which has been facilitated by a medical or nurse practitioner (or on behalf of a medical practitioner) who also offers mainstream cervical screening;
- invitations and reminders to be sent to women 25 to 69 years of age, and exit letters to be sent to women 70 to 74 years of age, to ensure the effectiveness of the program; and
- the de-listing of the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) items for the existing cervical cancer screening test MBS items over a 6 to 12 month transition period.
Key Information
The MSAC recommendations
- The Medical Services Advisory Committee (MSAC) has recommended to the Australian Government that a new 'cervical screening test' should replace the current Pap smear.
- The new cervical screening test detects human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, which we now know to be the first step in developing cervical cancer.
- Following a comprehensive review of the current evidence for cervical screening, MSAC has recommended for both HPV vaccinated and unvaccinated women that:
- an HPV test should be undertaken every 5 years;
- cervical screening should commence at 25 years of age;
- women should have an exit test between 70 and 74 years of age; and
- women with symptoms (including pain or bleeding) can have a cervical test at any age.
- An HPV test every 5 years is more effective than, and just as safe as, screening with a Pap test every 2 years.
- An HPV test every 5 years can save more lives and women would need fewer tests than in the current 2 yearly Pap test program.
- Pending policy decisions, it is anticipated that changes would not be implemented prior to 2016.
- HPV vaccinated women would still require cervical screening as the HPV vaccine does not protect against all the types of HPV that cause cervical cancer.
- Until any changes are implemented women should continue to have two yearly Pap tests.
- Further information on the MSAC recommendation may be found at: MSAC website.
The Human Papillomavirus and cervical cancer
- HPV is a virus that is a very common cause of infection in humans, similar to the common cold. Most women get it at some point in their lives. There are many types of HPV infections, and most of them clear up by themselves without causing any problems.
- HPV is transmitted through sexual activity. HPV infections are very common in young women and men in the early years of sexual activity.
- HPV infections are transient and will usually clear by themselves within 1-2 years. If the infection is not cleared, there is an increased risk of developing cervical cancer.
- Persistent HPV infections can cause abnormal cell changes that may lead to cervical cancer. However, this usually takes a long time, often more than 10 years.
- HPV is the virus that causes more than 99 per cent of cervical cancer.
- The HPV vaccine protects against the most common strains of HPV, accounting for approximately 70% of cervical cancers.
The HPV test
- The procedure for collecting the sample for HPV testing is the same as the procedure for having a Pap smear. A doctor or nurse would still take a small sample of cells from the woman's cervix to send away to a laboratory to be examined.
- If HPV is found (HPV positive), further testing (cytology) would automatically be done on the same sample to check if any abnormal cells are present (like the current Pap test), with no need to go back for a second test.
- If a woman doesn't have the virus (HPV negative), she would be invited to rescreen in five years.
- Clinical trials have demonstrated that screening with an HPV test every five years is more effective than, and just as safe as, screening with a Pap test every two years.
- Cervical screening is provided by doctors and nurses in general practices, family planning clinics, women's health centres, rural and remote clinics, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health services.
Women younger than 25 years of age
- The recommendation to commence cervical screening at 25 years of age is based on evidence that shows:
- cervical cancer in young women is rare;
- screening women younger than 25 years of age has not changed the number of cases of cervical cancer or deaths from cervical cancer in this age group;
- commencing screening at 25 years of age would prevent investigation and over treatment of common cervical abnormalities in young women that usually resolve spontaneously;
- HPV vaccination has already been shown to reduce cervical abnormalities among women younger than 25 years of age and will continue to reduce the risk of cervical abnormalities in this age group.
- Until any changes are implemented, women younger than 25 years of age should discuss their individual circumstances with their cervical screening provider prior to making a decision to screen.
Women over 69 years of age
- Women between 70 and 74 years of age who have had a regular screening test would be recommended to have an exit HPV test before leaving the cervical screening program.
- Women older than 69 years of age who have never been screened or have not had regular screening tests should have an HPV test if they request screening.
When are changes to the screening program expected?
- The Australian and state and territory governments will consider the operational changes that will be required, prior to making policy decisions.
- It is anticipated that any changes would not be implemented prior to 2016.
Cervical Cancer Facts
- In 2009, approximately 770 women were diagnosed with cervical cancer and there were 232 deaths from cervical cancer in 2010.
- In Australia, 80% of women with cervical cancer have not been screened or have not had regular screening tests.
- Women of any age who have symptoms should have appropriate clinical assessment which may include a cervical cytology test and an HPV test.
Partner Reference Group
An informal Partner Reference Group, open to anyone with an interest in cervical screening, has been established.Newsletters
Regular E-newsletters are distributed to inform Partners of the progress of the Renewal.- September 2014 (DOCX 79KB) | (PDF 459KB)

2005 Ford Mustang V6 Premium
ProsQuick car. Large open front seats able to fit tall poeple like me (I'm 6' 6'') comfortablly, Big 4.0 liter V6, strong after market following, relatively easy to get into 13's or lower, smooth ride, great sexy appreance, retro 60's muscle car look, better mpg's and lower insurance than GT's ConsA lot of preformance child proofing, trottle lag, open diffential, weak 7.5 inch rear end, very non agressive stock tune, limited to 111mph and the drive shaft is only rated for 115, can attract cops at times, small back seat
A Great Beautiful Car, Very Sexy And Very American — My 2005 Mustang 4.0 liter (245 cu inch) V6 is my dream car. I love it. I drives smooth gets pretty good mpg's, insurance is much lower than any V8. The silver racing stripes with the blue paint is sexy to say the least. It is a quick car that could satisfy most people's preformance desires. The body styling is beautiful but a few upgrades such as louvers (I have installed on mine), window tint, and chrome bullit rims would really complete the car. Don't expect to be comfortable with more than two people in the car. As far preformnce a cold air intake and a tuner make the car into a completely new beast, espeacially for automatics like me. I plan on possiblly adding a power adder to break into the 13's, which would make as fast or faster than most GT's. All in all a V6 is a solid alternative to the more expensive Mustang GT's. They are cheaper on gas and insurance than a GT, you get the same body style, and they are not too far apart preformance wise.

2005 Ford Mustang GT Premium
ProsPerformance, fun factor, handling, braking, styling, quality, great mileage for V-8, modern in every way and turns heads where ever I go! ConsI don't have room in the garage for several more!
Screaming Yellow 2005 Mustang Gt — Best Mustang Ever! Ford really got it right with this total remake of the Mustang. Performance is outstanding right off the showroom floor and with a few simple modificiations and a computer tuner - Wow! 0-60mph is less than 5 seconds and 27.5 mpg on the highway. Quality is outstanding! I have owned this car for 3 1/2 years with no recalls, no troubles and I have hammered the car pretty good at several track events and done a number of do it yourself upgrades! Family ordered the car for me in December of 2004 in screaming yellow with black stripes and custom wheels and a day has yet to go by without someone giving me a thumbs up or commenting on the appearance of the car. Every age group appreciates the color, the style and of course, the raucious sounding V-8 that emmanates from the Ford Racing Performance Exhaust system! Interior is leather and has the look and feel of more expensive cars and of course, I had to add a Hurst shifter, which looks great and performs even better! All for under $30,000.00, including the added modifications. I have owned many Mustangs over the years but this is one that is the best ever and I would recommend this car to anyone! |
2005 Ford Mustang GT Premium
Prosaffordable and the most fun for your bucks ConsNot designed for winter conditions, original tires had dissapointing performance
Happy Pony — Bought in 2005 as the Mustang took a turn in styling returning to retro look for the Ponies. The GT with the 4.6L is easily modified by any gear heads looking that level of identity and setting a personal stamp on a machine that is reliable,fuel efficient for a V8 and just a lot of fun to drive. 3 years later, now requiring a new set of tires, oil changes is the only thing my car has needed so far with 60K on the odometer. |
2005 Ford Mustang V6 Premium
ProsReliable and good MPG, elegant pony style, ease of operation with interior controls. ConsHave to watch acceleration, she moves quickly so easily on the gas pedal.When filling up at the gas station, I have noticed that the safety on the gas pump is trigger rather easily, with just a little ease and placement, the problem went away.
Timeless Classic — Likes: Pony style from 1960's, Rims are timeless, Handling is amazing, adjustable front driver seat, easy to reverse, great turn radius, adjustable seat and steering wheel, large back seats, smooth ridge, Dislikes: trunk space limited, door handles easily scratched. Stereo system outdated, but easily upgraded. Easy access to after market upgrades, both engine and exterior. My favorite aspect of the 2005 mustang is the subtle roar of the engine as you accurate. You get the feel of all 210 HP without the loudness we so often hear. Dislikes: The ride is a little bumpy over older roads, but on new pavement she is very smooth. May favorite interior feature is the adjustable color dash lights, Green, White Red or blue, the best setting I think for night time driving is the blue illumination. Has new Cool Air intake and dual Magna flow exhaust system. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |
Larry N Linda
2005 Ford Mustang V6 Premium Convertible
ProsClassic styling. Cool looks. ConsA little uncomfortable on a long trip if over 5 hours.
Real Pony Power — The v6 mustang has a surprising amount of power. Feels the same at 85 as it does at 45. Hugs curves well for not having independent rear suspension. Just a plain fun drive. On flat ground with cruise on, we get close to 30 mph. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |
2005 Ford Mustang V6 Deluxe
ProsLove the look black car, with black rims. Consthe only thing it's missing is that deep mustang sound.
My Baby. — even thought it's only a 6 cylinder, it's pretty quick and the handling is great. I'm going to get a performance muffler, because the Mustang sound is the only thing it's missing. I'm planning on upgrading to a 2012 or 13 GT. Primary Use: Family transportation |
2005 Ford Mustang GT
ProsSo many aftermarket parts for it. ConsDriving in snow/ice.
Great Car For Those Who Love American Muscle. — Love it! Fun to drive, great power train. The perfect platform for modification and customization. So many aftermarket parts for it, the possibilities are endless. No two are alike. Capable of being a serious racer with some modification. Parts to upgrade this car are not too expensive. It is easy to work on and a joy to have. Primary Use: Commuting to work |
2005 Ford Mustang GT Premium
ProsIt's pretty quick once you fix a few little things, gets decent mileage, and looks great ConsKinda sluggish for the price. Parts are expensive. The drive by wire system sucks, as does the TCS. The brakes are a little slushy and fade at higher speeds. And it can be a hand full in heavy rain
I Love It. After A Few Small Modifications It's Pretty Quick, And Turns Heads In A Good Way — It's not too fast from the factory, but with a little computer tuning and a new intake it really woke up. The handling is decent but not great, at least on the roads around Chicago. The brakes are decent but fade badly at speed. Also braking in wet weather is kinda scary. Strangely it is amazing in the snow, getting me to and from work during some of the worst snow storms we had. Overall the build quality is decent for an early production new model (built 2/05 and purchased 3/05) A few minor squeaks. It had some teething problems with the rear end making noise, it would cause most gas pumps to shut off prematurely. It is on battery #3 because they keep dying for some reason,The stereo sometimes blacks out, and the smart junction box shorted out. The car looks amazing on the outside, although i always thought the rear was a little akward. Inside is kinda cheap in apperance, especially for a $30k+ car. Lots of plastic, the center console is awful close to the driver and the storage cover sometimes pokes into my side. Also the parking brake lever is in a bad position, i would have liked to see it on the passenger side like earlier models. The lower dash sticks out a bit and hits my knees, especially on long drives where i want to move around slightly. Overall the car has been good with gas mileage, although it can only run on 92 octane or higher right now because of a more aggresive tune. The car is a blast to drive. It is set up slightly more aggresively than stock with a BBK cold air intake, SLP Loudmouth exaust (kind of a rip off) and a custom computer tune from Bob Kurgan. Without the custom tune it was running 13.7 while running a little lean. We have yet to run it with the new tune but the car feels much stronger already. It handles fine on the expressways in excess of 120mph, but above that it gets a little sketchy. I've driven it to Janesville, Detroit, and far southwestern Missouri, in addition to numerous trips to run at the track in Byron IL, and back. I LOVE taking it downtown, with the straight pipes and quick revving motor it easily drowns out traffic and echoes off the buildings like a monster. It's especially fun on lower Wacker drive, where it is downright frightening. Plus it can be so loud when it revs that we have scared a few nearby people, which is way more fun than most people will ever have Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |

Prosfun fun fun drifts fun Conscan only refuel my car to half
Why I Love My Car — American Quality, love it or hate it, everyone knows curves are no good friends with the car, but drifting is a solution. except on an autobahn going 150mph, but I have to get it faster ;). What is great is the new air intake system, you can hear a big roar when accelerating. I know that it is show off, but it is such a great fun. Primary Use: Commuting to work |
2005 Ford Mustang V6 Deluxe
ProsFun ConsYou're extremely tall. You can't find the accelerator or don't enjoy a good ride.
Good Value--made In The States Too :) — This is by far the best car experience I've had. I've got 63K+ on my Mustang and have had no problems with it. Acceleration is zippy, braking smooth and strong, handles great in the mountains and at speed. I went to a Goodyear Assurance Triple Tred for winter driving and it was like a different car in the snow and rain, definitely recommend that. No squeeks, rattles or faulty anything. It gets compliments wherever I go. Back seat is surprisingly comfortable for as little space as there is, but cramped for someone tall. I get roughly 26-31 mpg depending on how I'm driving and where I'm at. The car is a kick in the pants to drive which was a huge motivator for me personally. It's responsive, agile, and it'll give a Gt a run for it's money with the performance chip. I'm very happy with it. Primary Use: Family transportation |

AMD has not had the greatest acceptance of the K10 architecture, especially when released and the TLB bug that caused the L3 cache to become completely useless reared its ugly head.
This is now a thing of the past for AMD, but its stigma still makes its mark. Phenom was late due to the TLB bug and the repaired version didn't offer much of an increase that AMD said it would with the L3 cache enabled.
Moving ahead today though, Phenom II is one of the most versatile processors, due to its dual mode memory controller. You can easily put a Phenom II processor into any AM2+ motherboard and use it with DDR2 memory or AM3 based motherboard and run it on DDR3 memory and this is one thing AMD definitely got right.
AMD's own marketing strategy for Phenom II is for high-end market, and it leaves a gap for the mainstream segment, but not anymore we see.
Today AMD has its newest addition to the K10 family out using the Athlon naming, which gave them such a good hit all those years ago. Introducing the first quad-core mainstream CPU from AMD, which is dubbed the Athlon II X4.
We have the 620 model with us here today - how well does it perform? What does it offer? Let's find out!

Thanks, Arlan! I love those palamedes swallowtails myself! They use redbay/persea borbonia and swamp bay/persea palustris as host plants around here. I'm sure those are the two they use over in lower Alabama! MissSherry |
Oooh, MissSherry! Gorgeous, just gorgeous. Now, do you find that they are much larger than the Black Swallowtail? (wingspan) or about the same? Just curious... |
I have never seen one around here although they are supposed to be here. I have a Redbay that my Spicebush sometimes use but they seem to prefer the Camphor. Wish I could draw them in my yard |

Coincidentally, I found a pretty good size palamedes cat on a little swamp bay/persea palustris that's growing in front of my house. I haven't seen as many palamedes swallowtails this year as I usually do - maybe it'll help out if I raise some cats myself. MissSherry |

Since my son joined cub scouts I've been seeing my first Palamedes. We saw them in Feburary when camping in the Big Cypress and then we saw them last weekend at Camp Miles, which is near Punta Gorda. So they seem to like wooded wetland areas. (I wasnt even sure which one it was just knew it was not a BST or GST.) We never see them "in the city" though here in Fort Myers. They really are pretty. Love the body stripes! |

Sep 5, 2013 11:51 AM by Jacqueline Quynh, Brin Merkley - MTN News
MISSOULA - Local police are looking for several perverts, including one on the University of Montana campus.
There have been two reports involving different UM female students. The incidents happened on the Aug. 29 and Aug. 30, with both being reported to school officials on Tuesday night.
Officials sent text and email alerts to students on Wednesday, with campus police telling us that in each case a man befriended a woman at the University Center and offered to help them with homework in their dorm rooms on campus.
The man was allowed into the students' room in both cases, where he is said to have inappropriately touched them.
UM Police Captain Ben Gladwin says they are trying to identify a suspect. Meanwhile, the alert drew mixed reactions from students.
"It is a really big campus, and it's open to everybody, so I can see something like that happening, but the university has obviously done a really good job of recognizing that and taking care of the situation," student Kate Mayfield said.
"Well there was this one - you know really creepy guy - who was chasing us around, and I'm not sure if it was the same guy who was doing this stuff on the alert. He looked like a student. He was our age, maybe 18 or 19," student Catherine Bowen recalled.
Police are reminding students to use the buddy system, or call for campus escort if they feel uncomfortable walking back to their dorms.
The Missoula Police Department is also looking for a man who allegedly fondled himself in front of several women. Police received similar reports from different women at around 11 p.m. on Tuesday.
The first call came in from the 4500 block of North Reserve Street where two women reported a man standing outside their hotel room window touching himself.
Authorities say that about an hour later, they received a call from two other women who reported the same thing happened as they were walking across the Higgins Street Bridge - when the man yelled from below to get their attention.
"It doesn't happen very often. Every once in a while we get reports like this, but the fact that we got two reports within approximately an hour - so similar. We'd sure like to identify this person," Missoula Detective Sergeant Scott Pastian said.
The suspect in each case was described as being a white man, who was wearing a black T-shirt and black shoes, but he was not wearing pants. Anyone with information about the incidents is asked to call the Missoula Police Department at (406) 552.6300.

What Is Content Development?
What exactly is content development? In a nutshell, it encompasses brainstorming, researching, data gathering, and planning delivery methods as it relates to content preparation before publication. Examples could include finding images to go along with a particular post, recording and editing a phone interview before posting online, or it could even be something as small as citing different resources from around the web to include in a new blog post.
Being a wordsmith will only get you so far when it comes to creating great web copy. Having the ability to to entice users with creative hooks, keeping them reading on the page with broken up content, and writing to entertain and educate, are all part of developing rockstar content. However, simple text will only go so far without great visuals and/or audio.
Images and video are key when it comes to keeping people on page and engaged. Not only do they help break up the page, but they can improve conversion rates, be humorous (if made to be funny), but increase relevancy – not only from a users standpoint, but also from the search engines view as well.
Strictly audio oriented pages aren't so common anymore, but things like podcasts are still very popular and can be a great way of establishing an audience that cares about what you have to say.
Development and Marketing Works For Any Size Company
Obviously the three mediums of content development and delivery are very different, but if companies can develop and market content in a particularly great fashion, they can build up trust, authority, and a following. Your business might not be the next Hulu or Wikipedia, but by laying plans to develop good content that your target market is receptive to – it could be only a matter of time before you too have an authoritative business of you own.

I never used to be scared of storms until 5 years ago when I survived a tornado that destroyed half my house. My daughter was 3 months old. Since then I immediately feel the tightening in my shoulders when a storm starts to blow through and I have to work hard not to pass on this fear to my kids.
But before this, I often felt as you do and enjoyed the sizzle in the air that often came right before the storm arrived, when the breeze blew the trees and that greenish gray light made everything around me pop.
Thanks for the food for thought. -
In Miami, when a big hurricane is about to hit, the city goes crazy. The lines to the gas stations are mile-long. Paying for groceries can take up to an hour (not even playing.) Supplies at store fly. And all this because of a certain Hurricane Andrew. I remember my mom keeping her calm perfectly through the tumultuous '92 storm. Thanks for the post. :)

My mom would like to spruce up the area around her swimming pool in southern California. She is 80, still active and strong, but doesn't do as much gardening as she used to due to a bad back.
She consulted with a landscape designer for ideas. The suggestions included breaking up some of the decking to create planter areas where the decking meets the wall. She does not want to have that much work done so decided to call it off. So, I offered to get some ideas here and do the work myself, and she has agreed (so far!). We would like to begin planting in November. I would like to create a design for her based on the following criteria (please click on the picture at the bottom to see all the pics w/captions): -- Low water (her city allows irrigation only 3-4 days/week)
So far, my husband and I have suggested the following:
My own plant suggestions (so far) include some type of Salvia and Agastache (hummers, color, low-water), Agapanthus (I know they are common but she likes them and they are nice plants for around pools). We welcome any and all suggestions. Thank you! Please click on the photo to see all the pics:
Follow-Up Postings:
There are many kinds of lantana that will survive in those harsh conditions. Use upright forms where you want height, for example along a fence or wall, trailing forms for lower height. They come in many colors and color combinations and the only maintenance is an occasional trimming and shaping. They will drop fine leaf and flower litter, but shouldn't be excessively messy. For larger leaves, potted canna, ensete, and musa could be attractive. Is your mother anti-palm or just anti-queen palm? Other types of palms could give a neater or softer look. Can drainage holes be drilled in the ceramic pots? Trailing succulents would be attractive. |
Thank you, catkim. She is not anti-palm at all... in fact (I forgot) she mentioned a dwarf palm for the narrow border. That might allow for shade plants beneath when the palms are mature. Myself, I'd rather see lots of color ---- Agastache, Salvia, Penstemon, etc --- using plants that love her sandy soil. She loves Lantana and that's another one to consider. We talked about drainage holes in the pots, and I also envision trailing succulents in them. |

Hi Jenn, I think that's a good back yard for a woman in her 80s- except for the Queen Palms. I'm with you- get them out of there. They will begin to drop litter soon and the pool will be a mess. Your idea of raising the narrow bed with bricks- it would look much better. I also like the idea of a few large pots to give some height, especially over in the corner by the pool equiptment, but also on the patio. The short step along the garage looks too narrow to me to put planter boxes in. Would the water drain into the pool from the planters? If you could put a wider raised planter box in front of the step between the two windows that might look nice. Or another huge pot- since that space needs some height too. Plant choices- I'd avoid anything that requires trimming back every season. I also think the space needs as much green as possible. I would plant tall nandinas in the bed at the back, and pygmy date palms in the huge pots, with some sort of trailing iceplant or sedum that flowers. Maybe even ivy geraniums, since they flower almost all year and require so little care. Depending on how much sun those wall pots get, I don't know how well most trailing succulents would do. Mine get sunburned in those conditions. I would plant either Sprenger Asparagus ferns or a deep green ivy, so there's some green on that wall. Finally, I'd have something tall and skinny in that little patio bed- Mother-in-law tongue, if it's not too hot. Canna lilies would look good for most of the year, but they might not bloom in that much shade. The bed is so small I would probably just have one kind of plant in it. I realize that these are all ho-hum plants, but there are very good reasons that some plants are ubiquitous. Your mom seems to like a tropical look, and these are low-care and except for the cannas, relatively water-wise choices. They will live in the reflected glare of concrete and water. Have fun with your project! |
If your mom is willing to try other palms, I suggest any kind of Coccothrinax you can get your hands on -- no vicious thorns like a pygmy date, no big fat trunks like a queen, never blink at the cold, and they don't grow really fast, so you can have a personal relationship with their pretty fan leaves, rather than a telephone pole. Coccothrinax argentea, argentata, fragrans, excelsa -- look for them at palm specialty nurseries. Coccothrinax argentea: |
3-4x per week is NOTNOTNOT low water. The ONLY time I ever used more is to establish grass seed and to ESTABLISH plants in the sun in the high desert. Once it's established, nothing gets watered more than once a week except for pots. |
catkim: Nice! I'll add that to the list and see what she thinks. reyesuela: I didn't mean that 3-4x/week is low water... I know it's not. I meant that the plants must not require a lot of water because of her city's water restriction to allow irrigation only a few times a week; therefore, water requirements must be below that, which may include potted plants. Potted plants tend to require more water, so we will keep that in mind as well. |
I know of no plants that, if watered and placed properly, require water more that twice a week in the ground or three times a week in decent-sized pots with water-conservation potting soil. |

John Grego, 06/17/2007
After an extended family trip to Elliott's Landing on Saturday, I took a solitary Father's Day hike from 2:30 to 4:30 today. Upon crossing the iron bridge at the Kingsnake trailhead, I walked to the still on Whiskey Pond marked on John Cely's map--there's very little left, though it is on a well-defined bank and not that hard to find. From there, I went back to Cedar Creek, and picked up a slough to Lost Lake. Nelson's Pond was dry, so I hiked across it and verified a cut and then a log dike on John Cely's map, then crossed over to Kingsnake Trail and walked back to the car. The recent rains hadn't really affected water levels in the Park, and there weren't many bugs--wait till next weekend. Besides the accompanying photos, I also took some forgettable photos of Lizard's Tail and Swamp Milkweed blooming, as well as Crown Coral mushrooms. I forgot to bring my binoculars, so I likely missed a couple bird species--considering the time of day, things were pretty active:
Lost Lake This Cherrybark Oak was completely covered in Resurrection Fern Southern Pearly Eye butterfly--one of the few butterfly species you'll consistently see in the floodplain Eastern Box Turtle--found at the first small wooden bridge after the Iron Bridge. |

The Care and Feeding of Warriors: Wrath Beta Edition {WoW}
Jul 19th 2008 11:52AM "I don't really understand why hamstring and pummel had their damage removed. Then again, Shield Bash had its damage increased and improved shield bash will now increase the damage of all those shield slams all warriors will be doing, so your guess is as good as mine as to why the change."
I bet Hamstring had it's damage removed to make blocking more useful for people with low-block-value shields(newbies in pvp). Nothing more frustration than BLOCK! while trying to pin down a shaman, paladin, or warrior.
Shield bash likely had it's damage increased to punch through blocks so you can proactively silence, and to increase protection solo viability. Arms and fury warriors are getting Shield Slam, it's only fair that Protection warriors get a weak form of Bloodthirst. There's a big push towards tanking and protection abilities scaling with attack power: thunderclap, shield bash, concussion blow, and now shockwave too.
The change to pummel is anyone's guess - I wonder if rogue Kick will go the same way?
