Welsh house prices continue to slide
Sixth successive monthly fall
Wednesday 19 December 2012
The average price of a house in Wales has fallen by £4,465 in the last 12 months, according to the latest figures from LSL Property Services. However, house sales were up 23 per cent in October compared with September as more first time buyers got a mortgage.
"The Welsh housing market is struggling due to the lack of mortgage finance for lower income borrowers, caused largely by strict lending criteria, and this contributed to house prices sinking for the sixth month in a row in October," said Nigel Favas, Managing Director of Reeds Rains estate agents, who has branches in Wales comments. "Although sales activity increased by 23% between September and October, this says as much about the subdued number of sales in September as it does an improvement in the market. It is sobering that we are currently seeing lower house prices and this is the case in 18 of the 22 local authority areas in Wales.
Favas added that the number of loans advanced to first-time buyers rose between July and September by 10% per cent and that on average, first time buyers in Wales were able to use smaller deposits to secure a mortgage than in the UK overall.
"The Welsh government is taking steps in the right direction," he said, "with plans of new and affordable housing in Wales as part of a new strategy to encourage greater activity in the housing market. The launch of the mortgage indemnity scheme should help people to access higher loan-to-value mortgages from Spring next year. The government's Funding for Lending scheme is expected to have an impact in the early months of 2013 but it will take some time before we can assess its true impact."

A.M. Best Affirms Ratings Of W. R. Berkley Corporation And Its Subsidiaries
A.M. Best Co. has affirmed the financial strength rating (FSR) of A+ (Superior) and issuer credit ratings (ICR) of "aa-" of Berkley Insurance Company (BIC) (Wilmington, DE) and 24 of its reinsured subsidiaries and affiliates, collectively referred to as W. R. Berkley Insurance Group. A.M. Best also has affirmed the FSR of A+ (Superior) and ICR of "aa-" of Berkley Life and Health Insurance Company (Berkley Life and Health) (Urbandale, IA).
Concurrently, A.M. Best has affirmed the ICR of "a-" and debt ratings of "a-" on senior unsecured notes and "bbb" on trust preferred securities issued by W.R. Berkley Corporation (W. R. Berkley) (Greenwich, CT) (NYSE:WRB). The outlook for all ratings is stable. (See link below for a detailed list of the companies and ratings.)
The rating affirmations of the members of W. R. Berkley Insurance Group follow W. R. Berkley's third quarter earnings release and reflect its historically favorable underwriting and operating performance, well-established market profile and solid risk-adjusted capitalization. Positive operating cash flow, good liquidity, considerable business diversification, in addition to better than average catastrophe exposure, were notable rating considerations as well. A.M. Best believes the organization's favorable performance is largely owed to successfully executed, well-developed business strategies, which feature individual operating units focused on specific niche markets, primarily defined by geography, product orientation and distribution channel.
Partially offsetting these positive rating factors are the effects of weak macroeconomic conditions, competitive market pressures impacting both the surplus lines and specialty commercial markets and declining investment yields. These ratings also recognize the favorable prior year loss reserve development reported in recent years and the earnings garnering from these redundancies.
Through September 30, 2013, W. R. Berkley reported pretax income of $517 million and net income of $370 million while generating an 11% return on equity. Both income figures represent a slight improvement year over year. The company's consolidated financial leverage measured on an unadjusted debt-to-capital basis (including trust preferred securities) stood at 33%. W. R. Berkley's financial leverage is expected to remain virtually steady through the end of 2013.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Tommays, I agree with your line of thinking--I'd like to replace all the lights, but the boat's 350 miles away, so I really just need to get her home first. She'll be in the water in a few days, so I need to replace any bulbs and get spares, and worry about anything else once she's conveniently located 10 minutes from my house (assuming all goes well).
dont mean to but in but dog is right thats a push and rotate 1/4 turn actually - just changed my masthead bulb,same setup. Luckily for me the PO had used dialectic grease (36 yr old boat) I have no idea how long the bulb had been in there.
If you can't be a good example, you'll just have to be a horrible warning.

Merck Enters Strategic Collaborations With Amgen, Incyte And Pfizer To Evaluate Novel Combination Anti-cancer Regimens With MK-3475
Merck (NYSE:MRK), known as MSD outside the United States and Canada, announced today it has signed three separate clinical collaboration agreements, through subsidiaries, with Amgen Inc., Incyte Corporation and Pfizer Inc. to evaluate novel combination regimens with MK-3475, Merck's investigational anti-PD-1 immunotherapy. The financial terms of the agreements were not disclosed.
"Merck clinical scientists intend to explore the potential of our PD-1 inhibitor across a wide range of cancers, both as monotherapy and in combination," said Dr. Roger M. Perlmutter, president, Merck Research Laboratories. "These new collaborations with Amgen, Incyte and Pfizer underscore our shared determination to evaluate treatment regimens with the potential to provide meaningful benefits to patients suffering from cancer."
Planned investigations include:
- Pfizer and Merck will evaluate in Phase I/II clinical studies the safety and efficacy of MK-3475 in combination with Pfizer's small molecule kinase inhibitor axitinib (INLYTA®) in patients with renal cell carcinoma, and separately MK-3475 plus PF-05082566 (PF-2566), an investigational immuno-oncology agent that targets the human 4-1BB receptor, in multiple cancer types.
- Incyte and Merck will collaborate on a randomized, double-blind placebo controlled Phase I/II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a regimen combining MK-3475 with Incyte's investigational immunotherapy agent, INCB24360, an indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenase (IDO) inhibitor, in patients with previously treated metastatic and recurrent NSCLC, among other advanced or metastatic cancers.
- Amgen and Merck will evaluate MK-3475 in combination with Amgen's investigational oncolytic immunotherapy talimogene laherparepvec in a Phase I/II study in patients with previously untreated advanced melanoma.
Separately, Merck announced it will start a new Phase I "signal finding" study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MK-3475 monotherapy in 20 different PD-L1-positive solid tumor types that have not been studied previously (clinical trials identifier: NCT02054806).
About MK-3475 Many tumors are able to evade the immune system through a mechanism that exploits the PD-1 inhibitory checkpoint protein. MK-3475 is an investigational, highly selective anti-PD-1 immunotherapy designed to restore the natural ability of the immune system to recognize and target cancer cells by selectively achieving dual ligand blockade (PD-L1 and PD-L2) of the PD-1 protein. By blocking PD-1, MK-3475 enables activation of the immune system's T-cells that target cancer, essentially by releasing a brake on the immune system.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is TITUS!
Facts about TITUS
- Breed: Golden Retriever/Husky Mix
- Color: Red/Golden/Orange/Chestnut
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Male
TITUS's Info...
I am up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with dogs.
Hi my name is Titus! I am only 4 weeks old right know and won't be ready for a forever home until Feb 8th, 2013. My foster Mom says I am like Cotton Candy. At this time there is not much to tell I eat and sleep and they tell me I am going to be pretty big when fully grown. Titus will be neutered and micro-chipped prior to adoption and best suited with an active family with a yard. He is currently being fostered in Redondo Beach, CA. For an application email Lorna at firstname.lastname@example.com. Donation/Adoption fee and home inspection required.
Other Pets at Hope n' Heroes
Why Adoption is a Great Option
TITUS, a Torrance Golden Retriever/Husky puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Golden Retriever/Husky for sale in Torrance, or seeking a Golden Retriever/Husky puppy from a breeder in Torrance.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Torrance 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 Torrance 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 Golden Retriever/Husky breeders who help with Golden Retriever/Husky rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Torrance paves the way for another one to be saved.

Man, this site is great. Quick responses from people who KNOW a lot about beer. I know this is sacrilege, but I use 20 packs of plastic water bottles from Wal-Mart. The case only costs me $4, it holds back tremendous carbonation pressures, the water is already sterilized........just pour it out.......and bottle my beer into the 20 ounce bottles. Simple. The case holds 3.75 gallons and is much simpler than cleaning all those glass bottles. And yes, I keep it in the dark to prevent the light from damaging the beer. So is it just tradition that keeps people from doing this?? Another confession. I am almost ashamed of this. I had a batch in which the yeast just flat quit on me. Instead of re-pitching, I wanted to bottle.....and NOW. So I......ummm.......went to the liquor store and bought a fifth of Everclear (grain alcohol) and put it in my wort, primed it and bottled it. And it carbonated just as expected and tastes great. Am I a bad person? (hahahahaha!!)
Oh Good Lord. Next you'll be using a Edsel radiator as a wort chiller...
That's a good idea but... Those bottles will allow your beer to oxidize quicker than HB plastic bottles because they are more permeable by oxygen. It'll be good for a while, but I'd drink it quick.
Once the wind has been broken, it cannot be fixed.
Solar, have you had problems with the bottom of the bottles buldging out? It seems as though I read that somewhere. I've yet to brew my first batch. I am prepping for it though. Out of my collection of standard bottles, I also have a few 32 and 40oz twist-off bottles...aluminum caps with plastic inserts. Will it be okay to use those a time or two before ditching them? Or should I not even bother? I was just thinking...awe hell, I'm not thinking.
Well, don't feel too bad. I'm using 2 liter pop bottles that are cleaned and sanitized. They are meant to hold pressure and since I pour into a glass anyways, I can't see putting in the time and effort of sanitizing 50-60 glass bottles and don't need caps and a capper either. 10 2-liter bottles and I'm good to go for a 5 gallon batch. I bottle and then put in a dark closet kept at about 68° for 3 weeks. Oxygenation is not a problem as I usually start drinking them at 2 weeks and finish them up in a couple of weeks. Plus, I think the pop bottles are PET anyway.
I'm pretty sure that there are special plastic bottles that you can buy that are PET, but I would highly doubt the ones you have (standard soda bottles) are. As noted, some of these approaches may be fine for quick-to-brew, quick-to-drink beers, but you'll need to graduate to a more sophisticated approach if you ever start brewing the kinds of bigger beers that can use more aging.
It just doesnt seem right unless you bottle them in glass. You dont get that nostalgic opening sound with the cap and all that. You get a fizz, but there is no cap! Austin homebrew has those self opening caps... those are PIMP!

Apparently I have 2 problems with my tomato plants this year. First of all, I have 1 Fourth of July, and 4 of another, hybrid type I cant remember the name of. I planted them in a new spot this year, and in the new spot I chose, I assumed I'd get at least 8 hours of direct sunlight, but what I have noticed is that since I planted them in a 20 foot long row with 2 peppers mixed in, the plants at one end of the row get probably 1.5 to 2 hours less sunlight than the ones at the other end due to the tall trees at that end. I knew there would be some difference, but I didnt think it would be nearly 2 hours. Aside from that, none of these tomatoes and pepper plants are getting more than about 5 hours. That means they are now getting between 4.5 to 6.5 hours of direct sun per day, and when the sun starts dropping lower in the sky, I am sure the current amount they are getting will be reduced, so that by September they will be at or under 4 to 5 hours. The 4th of July is producing tomatoes, and the others have produced a couple so far, and should start producing about now, but the plants themselves are not very thick, in fact they are quite thin. That brings me to problem #2. With 1 of the hybrid tomato plants, I noticed it started showing curled leaves from just 3 weeks after they were planted in late May. They began as very small plants about 8" tall in a small 6-pack type market pack with openings about 1.5" x 2" wide at the top. Its leaves continued curling as it grew, with more curled leaves coming out. But it grew slower than the other 5. But just about 2 weeks ago I noticed 2 other plants of this same variety starting to show curling leaves as well. I planted 2 of these same plants in a different area about 20 feet away, but they show no curled leaves. They have been watered about 2-3 times per week and I added mulch over the bases about 2 weeks ago to help hold water. What is causing the curling leaves, and how much sun is not quite enough? |
Follow-Up Postings:
If you get 8 hours, that is pretty good. 5 to 6 hours is on the lower limit. I get about 5 hours direct sun plus lots of indirect and defused light. Not perfect but I am doing ok. In addition to light heat is also a factor. If your highs are 80F to 90F that can help a lot. With peppers, higher temperatures is a plus. |

I have a similar situation. I get lots of indirect light, and some dappled sun in the morning, but I get full sun from 10:30am to 2:00pm and full sun on the tops of most of the plants until 4pm. We are getting tomatoes, not a bumper crop for sure, but we are getting them. |

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Also, I don't think he is ideological or necessarily hardline. I would
argue that about half of all Spaniards definitely agree with him. The
problem with Spain is that half of the country is worried about external
threats coming over from North Africa and the other half thinks that the
biggest threat is Madrid.

attributes French and German "weakness" on counterterrorism to their
larger Muslim populations. He said OBL's statement on retaking Andaluz
is all he heard and the Germans and French just didn't get it. He says
poverty has zero connection to terrorism and that developmental aid
policies are useless. On ETA, he said the ceasefires are just time
buying measures, nothing more. In Catalonia he says the regional govt
encourages Muslim immigration from Pakistan, Algeria, etc because they
can more easily linguistically integrate them as opposed to
Spanish-speaking immigrants. This is also where the most radical imams
are in the country. He also said ETA has at least 20 camps in Venezuela
and ggat farc and eta work with each other in training l, weapons, etc.
Overall, he's very ideological and hardline. Good reminder of the
personal role in poltics (though he also paid for that and is embarassed
by his loss)

Here s a few things i think we really need. -Spell range check for Anivia and Karthus walls. (we really want to know how far our champion will walk to cast that damn wall.) -A way to tell if its friendly or ennemy Twisted Fate using gate. (Kind of annoying when you think its your allied Twisted fate coming to help you out but it turns out its ennemy twisted fate coming to backstab you. I think we have the right to know when we re being supported or attacked. Often happens to me where i should try to chase a hero but instead i m trying to hide because i m thinking its the opposite team s twisted fate coming for me when its allied twisted fate coming to gank. vice-versa.) just with those 2 things quickfixed i' ll be happy!

+1, especially that second point. There are quite a few spells that could use some sort of team identifier. Veigar's Event Horizon, Karthas' walls, Twisted Fate's Warp, etc.
Also +1. The first point is something I'd thought about myself, and while I'd never seen the second firsthand (I've never been in a game where both teams had TF), I can understand why it would be frustrating. And surely it wouldn't be too hard to just add a red or blue sheen to those moves based on what team the corresponding player is on?
Singe's glue/poison is another one.
Casting wall isn't a huge pain, but some sort of indication would be nice, and for the other skills as well.
The Swedish Chef
I think a good cosmetic change, instead of adding a ring like standard target skills, is to make the Wall cursor itself change into a Red color, as opposed to it's normal Blue, whenever the spell is out of range.
How often do you see two Twisted Fate's in the same game? I think you have a good point with teleport though as that has been bugging me(unless there is a way to tell those apart and I'm just missing it).

Far Cry 2
Version and / or Patch Used: 1.01
Timedemo or Level Used: Ranch Long
Developer Homepage: http://www.ubi.com/
Product Homepage: http://www.farcry2.com/
The Dunia Engine was built specifically for Far Cry 2 by the award-winning Ubisoft Montreal development team. It delivers the most realistic destructible environments, amazing special effects such as dynamic fire propagation and storm effects, real-time night-and-day cycle, dynamic music system, non-scripted enemy A.I. and so much more.
Looking at Far Cry 2, we see some good gains once again with the HD 4890. Unfortunately 2560 x 1600 doesn't give us that 30 FPS minimum we like to see, but at 1920 x 1200 we see we're well above it.
Optimum Setup- 1920 x 1200 isn't going to be a problem with a 38 FPS minimum. Adding a bit of AA or AF should keep us above 30 FPS while making the game look that little bit better again.

Chile crops benefit from rain in Mesilla
POSTED: Tuesday, July 10, 2012 - 5:15pm
UPDATED: Tuesday, July 10, 2012 - 8:27pm
MESILLA, N.M. -- The recent rains have benefited chile farmers in the Mesilla Valley helping their crops grow without the need of irrigation water or well water.
Ristramnn Chile Company owner Chris Alexander said the rain couldn't have come at a better time with limited water from the Rio Grande available for irrigation.
"Our plants are so small that it's more of an enhancement than a detriment to us, so the rain with the shortage of water has been beneficial for us at this point," Alexander said.
Alexander and his family have been growing chile in the area for more than 8 generations and 20 years in Mesilla.
"We do it all on our own, raising the chile and making the ristras and retailing all the way from farming to the retail market," Alexander said.
He said chile takes about two or three months to grow and about three feet of water a season.
Alexander said the biggest money saver is not having to use his wells for irrigation.
However, too much rain can be a problem.
"Whenever things get out of control and you can't get out into the field and take care of them, then all of sudden you get overgrown with weeding," Alexander said.
Rain is helping Alexander keep from using his more expensive wells to irrigate his crop.
As long as the rain keeps coming in and not too hard, Alexander said he's expecting a good season.

New York City may be one of the most festive places to be at Christmas time, but not everyone gets a chance to stop by in person, which makes the Rockefeller Christmas Tree time lapse video the ultimate opportunity to join in on the holiday fun.
Located at the monumental Rockefeller Plaza in the heart of downtown NYC, this major Christmas tree is put together before your very eyes. Capturing the city vibe and the decorating of the tree (from the moment it's pulled off the truck until the last twinkly light is placed), the Rockefeller Christmas Tree time lapse will get you in the Christmas spirit.
Aside from the finished product being spectacularly beautiful, the actual architecture of the tree from start to finish makes for a pretty interesting watch.

New Living Translation (NLT) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 This letter is from Paul, appointed by God to be an apostle of Christ Jesus, and from our dear brother Timothy. We are writing to God's church in Corinth and to all the Christians throughout Greece. | 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, To the church of God in Corinth, together with all the saints throughout Achaia: |
2 May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you his grace and peace. | 2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. |
3 All praise to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is the source of every mercy and the God who comforts us. | 3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, |
4 He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When others are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us. | 4 who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. |
5 You can be sure that the more we suffer for Christ, the more God will shower us with his comfort through Christ. | 5 For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows. |
6 So when we are weighed down with troubles, it is for your benefit and salvation! For when God comforts us, it is so that we, in turn, can be an encouragement to you. Then you can patiently endure the same things we suffer. | 6 If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. |
7 We are confident that as you share in suffering, you will also share God's comfort. | 7 And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort. |
8 I think you ought to know, dear brothers and sisters, about the trouble we went through in the province of Asia. We were crushed and completely overwhelmed, and we thought we would never live through it. | 8 We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about the hardships we suffered in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life. |
9 In fact, we expected to die. But as a result, we learned not to rely on ourselves, but on God who can raise the dead. | 9 Indeed, in our hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. |

Job description of an Ultrasound Technician
The specializations required for an ultrasound technician make it one of the most valuable jobs in the medical field. There are many different specializations that an ultrasound technician can choose. Some choose to specialize in gynecology, heart health, pregnancy, and many others. The main goal for any technician, regardless of specialization, is to examine the state of the organs, the health of the human body, and in some cases view a fetus in the womb. All of this is accomplished using ultrasound technology. Technicians are important because they help doctors diagnose and treat the medical problems of their patients. Those who specialize in pregnancy are also responsible for making sure that the mother and fetus are completely healthy and do not need medical attention.
Being an ultrasound technician can be very difficult. Each patient will have a different personality and requires a great amount of patience and communication from the technician. More than just knowing how to work the equipment, the technician must also maintain a clean work environment and prep the equipment for the next patient. Accurate records of all patient information is expected, as well as the ability to explain the procedure to each patient. Some patients may need to be coached throughout the process so that the technician can capture each image with clarity.
In addition to patient interaction, an ultrasound technician's job requires a fair amount of administrative duties including creating schedules and keeping a close eye on other ultrasound technicians that they work with.
How to become an Ultrasound Technician?
Like most medical jobs, becoming an ultrasound technician requires some form of higher education. Through this education, you will learn about the human anatomy and the correct operation of ultrasound technology. After graduating high school with a diploma or obtaining a GED certificate, future technicians can enroll in any CAAHEP certified training program. Depending on the program you choose, take into account the general education required courses that may include math, english, health, computer science, and physical or life science.
The CAAHEP, or Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education, is the most common certifier of ultrasound technician training programs. Through these accredited programs, you can obtain an associates or bachelors degree. Associates degree programs are the most commonly pursued track by students and typically take two years. The bachelors degree program will take four years, but offers a leg up on the competition. These types of degrees are very important when striving to advance in the field or simply looking to be hired by a competitive employer.
If you are a recent high school graduate or simply switching careers, you may choose to take a one year program that will offer a vocational certificate. You can finish these programs faster than a degree program, but they will not offer the same competitive edge. This option is best suited for those who are wanting to change careers quickly or only looking for an entry-level position.
Some colleges and universities may require the completion of a Certified Nursing Associate (CNA) before you can enroll in their Diagnostic Medical Sonographer (DMS) program. During your education, you will learn both in the classroom and through clinical training. Clinical training offers the opportunity for hands on experience, where you can apply what you've learned in the classroom. Taking an internship that will give you the chance to develop your skills in a real-life healthcare environment is also helpful. If you still want more experience, take advantage of any continuing education career opportunities or conferences that interest you. Once your work and designated hours are completed, you can enroll to take the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography exams. This test allows you to specialize in a certain area through extra certifications that may open up doors to higher salary rates and new career opportunities as an ultrasound technician.
Work Environment and Schedule
An ultrasound tech has many options for employment including hospitals, medical clinics, physician's offices, and many others. This field has a a high expected growth rate with many new opportunities for ultrasound technicians in places like laboratories, nursing homes, and other care centers.
Many ultrasound technician jobs require a full-time schedule, however, you may be able to find a company willing to hire a part time technician. If you have built up a positive, well-known reputation, you may work at more than one place. Ultrasound technology is needed full-time because patients need this service at odd hours including nights, holidays, and weekends.
Sonography Tech Salary
The job prospects for an ultrasound technician are good. With the required ultrasound technology education completed, you can expect to find a solid job with a great starting salary. With additional certifications you can expect better career options and a higher pay rate. The average income for an ultrasound technician is approximately $65,400 a year (SalaryVoice.com). This average is influenced in the US by the state of residence and extremes in the economy.
The level of experience as an ultrasound technician will greatly affect your annual salary. With less than one year of experience, the average salary is $39, 340 a year. Those with one to four years of experience make an average of $46,462 a year.
The amount continues to grow as the technician achieves more experience. An ultrasound technician with ten to eighteen years of experience makes an average of $67,600 a year. Even though an ultrasound technician's salary depends on several different factors, your career can flourish by choosing a good employer. Some ultrasound technicians, having achieved some experience in the field, choose to work in an administrative or supervisor position. Others decide to further their education by working towards additional certifications in the field of ultrasound technology. The private industry is another great choice for an ultrasound technician.
Like in most jobs, there are extremes that affect the economic standing of a business. The lowest ultrasound technician salary is about $56,100. The highest salaries reach up to $80,100 or more. The median salaries in this field are between $61,510 and $74,100 a year. In addition to the base ultrasound technician salary, there are other benefits including paid vacation days, healthcare contribution, and a pension. These extras can add $95,050 per year to the salaried amount, however, bonuses are not awarded to these technicians. The average pay package, including these extra amenities, is $67,240 a year.
The ultrasound technician salary is influenced by the specific field of employment. For example, a technician working for a hospital can make $63,780 and a technician working for a physician's office can earn $63,850. A technician working for an educational institution can earn $66,270. The career opportunities for an ultrasound technician are very good for each US state. This career offers many rewards, and requires education and certification to be successful.
Ultrasound Tech Salary in Canada, Australia and UK
Each country contains many different factors that may affect the salary range of a technician. The ultrasound technician salary in the UK is usually between £20,050 and £60,050 per year. Those working independently in the field can earn between £20,050 and £48,050 per year. These salaries depend on the place of employment and the amount of education the technician has received.
Those working in a hospital typically make between £26,050 and £40,050 a year. Ultrasound technicians working in the federal government make between £28,050 and £40,050. Private practices offer a little better salary ranging between £31,010 and £47,010. Someone who has completed a bachelors degree can make a salary of £65,010. As you can see, education plays an important role in this field.
In Canada, an ultrasound technician can earn between CAD$65,010 and CAD$75,010. The highest hourly wage is found in Calgary, Alberta, where a technician can make CAD$42.16 an hour. The lowest hourly wage is found in Quebec, Montreal, where a technician can make as low as CAD$19.05 an hour.
In Australia, the hourly wage for an ultrasound technician is typically between AU$28.23 and AU$59.61. These numbers are affected by the area of employment and type of employer. The number of years of experience you may have as an ultrasound technician plays a large role in the amount you can earn per year and the type of employment you can obtain.
Conclusion on Ultrasound Technician Salary
The growth in this medical field is higher than other fields due to the ever growing demand for this specialty and the development of new technology. Opportunities for ultrasound technicians will continue to grow throughout the next ten years as patients and doctors require the expertise of these professionals. The amount of experience a technician acquires will play a large role in job placement and salary amounts.

White House Coward Feeds Mike Allen "Exclusive": Catfood May Happen!
9:37 am in Uncategorized by Scarecrow
Every morning, Politico's Mike Allen calls the White House to see if the usual White House Coward or one of his lackeys will feed him some nice tidbit from the daily White House Spin. This one looks like it was approved by the Chief of Cowards:
"Good Thursday morning. EXCLUSIVE – DEBT COMMISSION'S BIG RECOMMENDATION MAY COVER SOCIAL SECURITY: President Obama's 18-member fiscal-responsibility commission, headed by Alan Simpson and Erskine Bowles, is to report recommendations to Congress by Dec. 1. The administration hears that a group of commission members is relatively optimistic about coming together around a package on Social Security. It's not clear what terms would work politically – what could get through the Congress. But there's some optimism that commission members can find a way to do that. It's less clear what they might do on other dimensions of the long-term deficit problem (14 votes are needed to report a recommendation), although they may find smaller coalitions that are bipartisan for approaches to constrain spending growth.
–ADMINISTRATION MINDMELD: The virtue of action on Social Security is that it demonstrates the ability to begin to affect the long-run deficits. Social Security isn't the biggest contributor to the problem – that's still health-care costs. But it could help a little bit, buy time, and strengthens the odds of a political consensus behind other spending cuts or tax increases. Most importantly, it would establish more CREDIBILITY with the MARKETS. The mood of the world at the moment (slightly excessive, from the administration's point of view) is that if you don't do anything with spending cuts, it doesn't get you credibility. "
Well, Mike, we're just shocked, shocked to learn that the Catfood Commission is planning to screw Social Security beneficiaries and that the White House is all excited that the country will finally face up to the non-crisis and create worse problems for insecure seniors by solving a non-problem with a non-solution designed to conceal another agenda, because, you know, there have been virtually no stories about that.
And how helpful of Mike to note that Social Security "isn't the biggest contributor to the problem," which in normal English to those paying attention translates to: "It isn't part of the so called deficit problem at all, so this is part of a massive scam!"
No, the "biggest contributor to the problem" is a President and White House team willing to form a secret commission, led by ignorant clowns and stacked with too many people with anti-democratic biases and little understanding, none of whom have to worry about retirement security, and allow them to recommend the degree of retirement insecurity for already insecure seniors, with no political accountability ever, and then have the White House Coward in Chief front for this anti-democratic process and anti-Democratic agenda and feed a useless, tantalizing tidbit to an unquestioning stenographer who doesn't understand anything about the "deficit" issues, thus faithfully representing the Beltway media.
And why are we celebrating a calculated leak from a secret commission conducting the public's business that affects tens of millions of our most vulnerable citizens behind closed doors? Open it up, or shut it down.
Update: via David Dayen and The American Prospect's Tim Fernholz, who says he heard the same briefing Allen did, thinks Mike Allen missed important context:
The most important omission from Allen's item is that the official concluded the conversation by noting that social security is not a generous benefit compared to other public pensions around the world, and that cutting benefits, even years in advance, would be difficult to justify. More symbolically, Allen doesn't mention that the official cited Paul Krugman when talking about Social Security's contributions to the deficit. Finally, the reason the administration official was interested in credibility before the markets is so the government could borrow more money for temporary fiscal stimulus.
So, did Mike Allen just mangle the whole story? We could avoid this if these briefings were public, the source identified, and those present could report what was actually said.
More update: Brad DeLong suggests it was just a mistake to invite Mike Allen to a meeting with grownups. That may be true, but the more important mistake is to hold off-the-record briefings and muzzle competent people with the rules when there's no real justification for that. If responsible witnesses/reporters can report what actually happened, we wouldn't have to worry so much about Mike Allens.

Shumlin weighs in on guns
Gov. Peter Shumlin says the rest of the country should look to Vermont on how to manage firearms, but hell leave it to Congress to debate access to military-style assault weapons.
Shumlin says Vermont has a strong hunting culture and strong support for the right to own and use firearms. But he told The Burlington Free Press, People dont use machines of war to shoot whitetail deer.
The issue of access to assault weapons has come to the fore following several recent mass shootings, including the massacre of elementary school students and staff in Newtown, Conn., Dec. 14.
The National Rifle Association which opposes most firearms regulations has supported Shumlin, and contributed to his re-election campaign this year.MORE IN Vermont NewsThe sugar tax is back.

text: November 06, 2002 Notebook: Injury Report BY: Ian Logue/PatsFans.com FOXBORO, MA -- The Patriots returned to practice for the first time on Wednesday as they get set to travel to Chicago to take on the Bears this weekend. New England will be looking to break the .500 mark after rebounding from their four game losing streak with a 38-7 rout of the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.Ā The team also released their injury report and safety Victor Green (leg) is the newest player on the list listed as "Questionable" for the upcoming game.Ā LB Larry Izzo (leg), CB Ben Kelly (ankle), and LB Mike Vrabel (arm) are also listed as questionable. BEARS STRUGGLING Patriots head coach Bill Belichick acknowledged on Wednesday that with the way the Bears are struggling as of late, he expects them to come out and play as hard as New England did against Buffalo on Sunday. "They're obviously in a tough stretch right now," said Belichick. "Something that if anyone can relate to it we can with the way we approached the Buffalo game last week. To me this is the kind of game that I'm expecting from Chicago out there." CLUB SEATS? PLEASE..... For any of those fans who attend games at Gillette Stadium who have noticed those seats are empty the majority of time, Providence Journal writer Jim Donaldson said it best in His Column in today's paper. "The best fans do not occupy the best seats," wrote Donaldson who noticed that most of the club seat owners were sitting inside enjoying the many amenities of the posh Stadium Club watching the game when the team battled Denver recently. "You want to find real fans, go to the end zones, not to the club seats or the luxury boxes. Real fans do not sit inside when their team is playing. If all you want to do is eat and drink while watching the game in cozy comfort -- stay home!" Site-specific editorial/photos Copyright 2001-2004 PatsFans.com.

Casting Couch: Disney Lets Three Actresses Try on Cinderella's Slipper, Colin Firth and Helen Mirren to Visit 'The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel,' and More
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on December 3, 2012 | Be the First To CommentWhat is Casting Couch? It's just trying to cram its foot into this shoe. Just last week, we learned that Cate Blanchett was likely to be Mark Romanek's wicked stepmother in the new Cinderella movie that he's doing for Disney, and now Variety gives us word that the project is closing in on its Cinderella as well. According to the trade, Atonement actress Saoirse Ronan, Anna Karenina actress Alicia Vikander, and The Three Musketeers' Gabriella Wilde have all been in to see Romanek for screen tests. So, clearly, the sweet spot for getting this role is to have an interesting accent and some period work under your belt. Keira Knightley better watch her back, because it looks like there's a whole upcoming generation of ladies gunning for her roles.
'Super 8' Star Joel Courtney Lines up New Projects
Movie News By Nathan Adams on June 24, 2011 | Comments (2)Despite the fact that he had no prior acting experience before entering into the Super 8 casting process, young actor Joel Courtney ended up being cast as the star of that high profile, J.J. Abrams directed film. And, beyond that, he gave a strong, authentic performance that did a great job anchoring the film and probably turned the heads of a lot of casting people in Hollywood. So, naturally, there's starting to be some word about what his next projects will probably look like. Firstly, Courtney is set to play Tom Sawyer in Jo Kastner's adaptation of the Mark Twain novel "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer". We've seen him dressed up as a movie geek from the 80s and he pulled it off well, I guess it's time to see if he can embody barefoot river rat from the late 1800s as well. That film is set to start shooting in August.
Review: 'Super 8′ Is Soaring, Slightly Hollow Entertainment
Movie Reviews By Scott Beggs on June 8, 2011 | Comments (3)There's nothing quite like returning to the old neighborhood to find that your childhood playground hasn't been torn down. You run your hand along rope ladders deemed "unsafe" by modern standards, feel the crunch of pebbles beneath your feet that did more to cut than soften a fall, sit in the swing and think for a moment about jumping out at the highest point. Super 8 is the cinematic equivalent of unearthing a time capsule and finding everything inside is still impossibly shiny and new. It's impossible to remove the film from its own nostalgia, except for its intended audience of children discovering this type of filmmaking for the first time (and maybe even seeing their first Amblin logo). That's a pretty powerful thing. With everyone clamoring to tap a market of adults eager for their own past while simultaneously getting kids into seats, J.J. Abrams's latest is one of the few that actually succeeds.

The Care and Feeding of Warriors: Our name is legion, for we are many {WoW}
Nov 9th 2007 12:52PM Warrior success in arena has little to do with the rage mechanic. Most quick hitting DPS teams will ignore the warrior and burn the healer unless the warrior charges off and LOS's his healer. Warrior success in arena, esp when coupled with a resto druid in 2v2, has more to do with spamstring and intercept. Other forms of melee DPS have problems with kiting mechanics.
