FAQ Recycled Cardboard Christmas Tree
What kind of carton is used to make the product?
The Christmas trees are made of recycled cardboard which is a high quality product not to be mixed up with corrugated carton used in regular packaging boxes.
The Kid's House is made of corrugated carton.
What colors and finishes are available?
The Christmas trees are available in up to three colors/finishes, depending on the model chosen.
The White version is completely white and ideal for either a very clean and pure look, or for kids to dray and decorate any which way they feel like.
The Green version is completely green for a more traditional look.
The Christmas tree of yesteryear model is made of white cardboard and printed with green designs. Another tree model is also available, printed with tree branches, which it makes it very similar to a natural tree.
The Printed version is of a natural carton color at the base with some patterns printed on top of it in green and silver. One side of every piece is green, while the other side is silver. When you assemble the tree, you decide which side you want to put facing you.
The Kid's House is of the natural color of unprinted carton.
Are any decorations supplied with the trees?
The Classico model has no decorations supplied.
The Moderno and Piccolo models are supplied with an assortment of stars and round cut-outs to affix to the large sections of the trees. Please consult the pictures where you will be able to see them very clearly. You decide if you want to install the supplied decorations – you do not have to install them.
Can I decorate my tree?
Absolutely! Look at the pictures of the Classico tree to get some inspiration.
It is possible to drill holes at the end of the "branches" of the Classico to attach hanging decorations. Use an electric drill with the appropriate bit for your hanging decorations attachment. It is strongly suggested that you drill the hole while the panel being drilled is flat with a piece of scrap wood underneath – this way you will do it safely and you will have a nice clean hole.
The white version is the color best suited to paint or draw on the tree.
Can I color/paint/customize my tree?
Most certainly! Look at the pictures of the Classico tree to get some inspiration. The white version is the color best suited to paint or draw on the tree.
What are the dimensions of the products?
The cardboard used for the trees is 3.715mm or 1/8" thick.
The Massimo is 198.12 cm (6½') tall and 104.14 cm (41") in diameter.
The Classico measures 104cm/41" in height with a diameter of 71cm/28".
The Moderno measures 132cm/52" in height with a width and depth of 74cm/29".

How do I assemble my tree?
Assembly instructions are printed in box. In addition, if you want to watch a short video showing how to assemble a tree, please click on this YouTube link.
May I put Christmas lights on my recycled cardboard tree?
It is strongly recommended not to install any type of electrical apparatus on your tree other than LED lights that come with the MASSIMO tree, because the trees are made with a flammable material.
The LED lights that come with the MASSIMO trees are certified IP68. They are thus resistant to the infiltration of dust or liquids. WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU NEVER LEAVE YOUR LIGHTS ON OR PLUGGED IN UNATTENDED
May I spray the fir tree mist directly on the cardboard Christmas tree?
Yes. However, it is recommended that YOU NOT SPRAY THE FIR TREE MIST ON THE CHRISTMAS LIGHTS OR NEAR HEAT.
Can I reuse my tree year after year?
Definitely! Carefully disassemble your tree, store it in a dry place and it will be in the same condition one year from now.
Can I use Christmas lights with my tree?
It is not recommended to attach any form of electrical device on the tree.
Where can I install my tree?
It is up to your imagination. The big trees such as the Classico and Moderno can be installed right on the floor, on a small base to give them even more height, or on a small table. The Piccolo, being smaller, can be installed almost anywhere: bedroom, office, as a dining table center, on top of furniture, etc.
Can I install my tree outside?
No. The trees are made of cardboard which will be damaged outside. Furthermore, the trees are fairly light in weight.
What precautions should I take with my tree?
Flames and intense heat have to be avoided. No electrical device should be attached to the tree. Cardboard and water is not a good combination. A high humidity environment could also get the cardboard to warp.
How ecological is my Christmas tree?
Made with 100 % recycled fibres, the Cascades Christmas Tree is FSC® certified. The raw materials used to manufacture the tree come from the urban forest – your recycling bins – and do not contain any trace of virgin fibres. Resistant enough to reuse for several years, this tree can thus end its life where it began: in your recycling bin.
Can I recycle my Christmas tree?
Yes, simply dispose of it in the recycling bins of your community.

Vaughn is a town in Guadalupe County, New Mexico, United States. The population was 539 at the 2000 census. According to Google public data, the population has dropped 17% to 438 as of July 2011. Vaughn is located at an intersection of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe and Union Pacific railroad lines. [edit] History
Vaughn was established in the early 20th century as a Southern Pacific Railroad town. The town's importance grew when a second railroad, the Eastern Railway of New Mexico (an Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe line from Belen to Clovis), was completed in 1907 with Vaughn as a division point. A large two-story depot, a roundhouse, and a Harvey House hotel were constructed shortly thereafter. Vaughn was incorporated in 1919 and in 1920 had a population of 888 according to the U.S. census. This town was one of the shooting scenes for Bobbie Jo and the Outlaw starring Wonder Woman actress Lynda Carter. On Wednesday, 26 September 2012, the town's only police force was disbanded when the police chief resigned due to criminal charges lodged against him. According to a news report, the police dog and a non-sworn officer are the only remaining connection to what the town called the police department. The Guadalupe County Sheriff's Department patrols the town, which, according to the United States Homeland Security, is a known drug smuggling route. [edit] Research Tips

Sir: Agranulocytosis occurs in 1% to 2% of patients treated with clozapine. Thus, if neutropenia (absolute neutrophil count [ANC] of < 1500/µL) occurs during clozapine treatment, physicians generally interrupt the drug treatment and do not reintroduce it. Lithium and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor may be used to reverse clozapine-induced granulocytopenia.1

Hello there! I'm Maggie, or Gussy — whichever name you want to use is fine with me! A handful of years ago my mom started calling me "Gussy" after Gussy the goose in Charlotte's Web {ya know, that one goose that talks a lot?} and it sort of just… stuck. Shortly after that I was learning how to sew and I knew I needed a name for my products; "Gussy Sews" seemed like a perfect fit. Hope you enjoy my guest post here on School Gate Style..
The weather has been pretty much perfect these days. Sometimes it's nice enough to be able to wear shorts or a skirt for a few hours in the afternoon. Mornings + evenings are still a bit cool, which I'm still getting used to. I'm a Midwest girl at heart, you know. While we were out on another yogurt run we stopped to snap some pics.
The other week I found myself at Target and helloooooooo, pretty green skirt. Won't you come home with me? So it did.
Oh, and look at my handsome baby — he's a blondie some days, a ginger the other days. But, he has BIG blue eyes every day
As a new mama, these tank tops are my favorite. They're really soft, I don't have to wear a second tank underneath to cover my midsection when nursing, and they have stripes on them. I don't know what it is about stripes but my closet is just bursting with them!
Last week I also painted my nails for the first time since Maxwell was born. Having my nails painted is a super easy way to add color to outfits.
By the way, Maxwell starting cooing and I'm all, YES! Let's have a conversation, son! Hearing his voice squeak is sooo cute.
Stealing baby kisses are the best, right? And would you look at those chubby arms? Ahhh, they are perfect and just what we ordered
Getting dressed each morning has really helped me feel refreshed as a new mama. Some nights are especially long [!] and I actually look forward to a hot shower, a spritz of perfume and my favorite mascara. Now that Max is 8 weeks old we're getting out even more throughout the week, too, and I want to feel inspired to take on new adventures with him. The first month I kept my focus on feeling comfortable while I healed from my c-section, so it's been especially fun to wear again my favorite pair of purple skinnies and now this new green skirt.
What's something new you've recently added to your wardrobe? It doesn't have to be an expensive piece, a new bottle of nail polish or accessory [anything that makes you smile] is fancy enough Oh and pop over to my blog to check out my latest posts – I'd love to you to be my newest follower!

Acupressure and nausea
Acupressure is an ancient Chinese method that involves placing pressure on an area of your body, using your fingers or other device, to make you feel better. It is similar to acupuncture. Acupressure and acupuncture work by changing the pain messages that nerves send to your brain.
Sometimes mild nausea, even morning sickness, may improve by using your middle and index fingers to press firmly down on the groove between the two large tendons on the inside of your wrist that start at the base of your palm.
Special wristbands to help relieve nausea are sold over the counter at many stores. When the band is worn around the wrist, it presses on the same or similar pressure points just described.
Acupuncture is often used for nausea or vomiting related to chemotherapy for cancer.

Any of about 90 species of free-living terrestrial invertebrates in the class Onychophora (sometimes considered a phylum). They are sometimes called velvet worms for their velvety skin. The common genus Peripatus occurs in the West Indies, Central America, and northern South America. Onychophorans are slender and segmented; each segment has a pair of short legs. Species range from 0.6 to 6 in. (14–150 mm) long. They live in humid, hidden spots: in forest litter, wood crevices, termite nests, or the soil, sometimes to a depth of more than 3 ft (1 m). They use their jaws to open captured prey (often small insects) and suck out the juices.

Fabric having a short, dense pile, used in clothing and upholstery. Velvet is made in the pile weave (see weaving), of silk, cotton, or synthetic fibres and is characterized by a soft, downy surface formed by clipped yarns (see shearing). Its "wrong" side is smooth and shows the weave used. Velvets can be made water-repellent and crush-resistant. They are also occasionally patterned or embossed.
Learn more about velvet with a free trial on Britannica.com.
Velvet is a type of tufted fabric in which the cut threads are very evenly distributed, with a short dense pile, giving it a distinct feel.
Velvet can be made from many different kinds of fibres. It is woven on a special loom that weaves two pieces of velvet at the same time. The two pieces are then cut apart and the two lengths of fabric are wound on separate take-up rolls.
Velvet's knitted counterpart is velour. Velvet was very expensive and was considered to be among the luxury goods together with silk. Corduroy and velveteen were considered the "poor man's velvet" when they were first produced.
Velvet is difficult to clean, but in modern times, dry cleaning is used.
Panne is a type of finish for velvet which gives it a special shiny look, similar to many velours.
Velvet is made, ideally, from silk. Cotton can also be used, though this often results in a slightly less luxurious fabric. More recently, synthetic velvets have been developed, mostly polyester, nylon, viscose, acetate and mixtures of different synthetics, or synthetics and natural fibres (eg. viscose and silk). Velvet can also be made from fibres such as linen, mohair and wool. A cloth made by the Kuba people of the Democratic Republic of Congo from raffia is often referred to as "Kuba velvet".
A small percentage of lycra is used sometimes to give stretch.
The art of velvet-weaving probably originated in ancient Kashmir. Earliest references occur around the beginning of the 14th century.
The peculiar properties of velvet, the splendid yet softened depth of dye colour it exhibited, made it fit for official robes and sumptuous hangings. The most magnificent textiles of medieval times were Italian velvets. These were ornamentated by such techniques in silk, with uncut pile or with a ground of gold tissue, etc.
The earliest sources of European artistic velvets were Lucca, Genoa, Florence and Venice, and Genoa continues to send out rich velvet textures. Somewhat later the art was taken up by Flemish weavers, and in the 16th century Bruges attained a reputation for velvets which was not inferior to that of the great Italian cities.

Clifton - A naked Garfield man was arrested today after allegedly pointing a gun at a supermarket employee. Clifton police were called to the Pathmark on Ackerman Avenue at around 4 a.m. after the employee reported being threatened. When they arrived, he told him that he was sitting in his car when a naked man approached him and held a gun to his head before saying "I am God." The employee drove away, and was not injured. According to The Record, police later found 23-year-old Christopher Duran along Ackerman Avenue. He was still naked at the time, though his clothes and a handgun were found nearby. He was charged with aggravated assault, lewdness and weapons possession, and was remanded to the Passaic County Jail.
Hey you'd be pissed off too if you were God Almighty and you found yourself naked at 4 a.m. in the middle of nowhere New Jersey. That sounds fucking awful. All the omnipotence in the world isn't going to make that situation any better. Best option is to get your hands on a loaded 9 mm as soon as possible and shoot your way out or just end it all in the front seat of your Buick and take the express train back home.
PS – Weird hypothetical question, but say God was on Earth and he did commit suicide. He'd go to Hell right? Or would he forgive himself and go back to Heaven? That'd be kind of hypocritical I think. I need some Christians on this shit asap.
PPS – Infinity percent chance God drives a Buick.

"Quiet Inn on the San Antonio River Walk Inn on the Riverwalk is located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac overlooking the San Antonio River Walk, a network of pedestrian-friendly walkways through the heart of downtown San Antonio. Listed in the book 1,000 Places to See Before You Die, the river walk draws millions of visitors each year and is one of Texas's most popular attractions. The tree-lined Inn on the Riverwalk puts its guests far enough from the river's main tourism spot to feel private and secluded, but close enough for easy access. The riverside's charming restaurants, shops, and bars are all within a 5- to 10-minute walk. The inn is made up of three guesthouses: the main inn, a three-story Victorian home that dates back to 1916, and two smaller, Craftsman-style homes. Each individually decorated guest room comes with abstract paintings created by innkeeper Johanna Gardner and looks out onto gorgeous views of the river walk. Some even have private porches. Each morning, chefs serve a hot breakfast in the dining room of the main inn. The menu changes daily, but may include chorizo, hash browns, and fluffy pancakes. Grab a seat on the outdoor terrace to dine amid views of the San Antonio River, or order in—this Getaway includes one morning of breakfast in bed served in your room from 9 to 9:30 a.m. San Antonio, Texas: Historic Missions near Picturesque River Walk In the late 1920s, architect Robert H. H. Hugman designed an urban park around the San Antonio River—a space he envisioned as an American version of Venice where people could shop and dine along the waterfront. Completed in 1941, the 2.5-mile river walk still serves as a vital artery in the heart of San Antonio as it wends its way past cafés, hotels, bars, and shops. Located one story below street level, the waterway is flanked on either side by stone pathways, quiet waterfalls, and towering cypress trees. The winding river-walk path reveals little surprises along the way, such as picturesque restaurants, public art installations, and cardboard cutouts of Davy Crockett. A new extension connects the river walk to the four-story San Antonio Museum of Art, where you'll find more than 25,000 sculptures and paintings that range from Roman antiquities to contemporary art. Also neighboring the river walk is the Alamo. Thanks to the 1836 battle that made it a symbol of Texas independence, the Alamo has become the most visited tourist site in the state. It's actually one of five historic Spanish missions clustered around the San Antonio River. The largest, Mission San José, lies just 5 miles south of downtown. Its famed rose window is once again on display following an extensive renovation".
Read this today. Thought it funny and wanted to share ....
"A man wrote a letter to a small hotel he planned to visit on his vacation: "I would very much like to bring my dog with me. He is well-groomed and very well behaved. Would you be willing to permit me to keep him in my room with me at night?" An immediate reply came from the hotel owner, who said, "I've been operating this hotel for many years. In all that time, I've never had a dog steal towels, bedclothes, silverware or pictures off the walls. I've never had to evict a dog in the middle of the night for being drunk and disorderly. And I've never had a dog run out on a hotel bill. Yes, indeed, your dog is welcome at my hotel. And, if your dog will vouch for you, you're welcome to stay here, too."

Today, the black man in Africa gets to bunk off work coz it's Africa Day. I don't know why the hell we have an Africa Day -after all, you don't see Europe having a Europe Day- but I'll take it. Hmmm... Wonder if every continent has a day?
I realised that I am bisexual - shock horror gross, I know. I'm still in mourning, but I can't pretend I've never been, and never will be attracted to men, because that'd be lying. I'm attracted to people. Black, white, brown, male, female, inbetween, old, rich, younger than me, rich, poor, blind, deaf, related to me (yes, I did kiss my cousin!) or blue with purple spots, it doesn't matter. - I'm more attracted by a person's personality than by their wrapping. That is why I could never be attracted to a stupid person. That's my biggest turnoff, after someone being morbidly obese.
I guess that's what bisexuality is....Just being able to love people. Should have guessed I was bisexual. I always hate what I am, and I LOATHED bisexuality. Always saw it as a non-decision, a sitting-on-the-fence if you will. But maybe I was wrong... I realised (sorry to all americans, this is how the rest of the world spells this word) that I'm able to love anyone, if I can love their soul first.
Ah, but I'm still more of a lesbian than straight. Women are so delicious and so complicated. What a challenge! What a turn on!
Right now I'm a bit disillusionned with men because my last boyfirends were all sisy-boy wimps! They were way too nice and needy. The only guys I ever felt immensely attracted to were guys that treated me like shit and ignored me. 'badboys'. Guys that I couldn't control, who I couldn't make like me. What can I say? I'm a masochist. They kept me interested because keeping their attention was a challenge... But see that's the thing, the moment they gave in and were whipped over me, i was like "Next!"
Whereas, with a woman, even if she's yours, she's not. You can never own a woman. Her thoughts, her emotions, her heart and her soul are always working, always challenging you. You can never get bored with a woman, even if you two are married and have been together forever: unless that is that you are a fool and think you can ever fully KNOW a woman. That's what I love about women- you can never stop learning a woman - she has up to infinity different ways to be sexy, to be moving, to be funny, to be insightful, to be raw, inspiring, angry, powerful, kind and gentle, evil. You can never get enough.
Everytime I think about how beautiful women are, my breathing gets shallower and speeds up. I'm proud to say I LOVE women thoroughly, and okay, so I can tolerate men as well. (don't hold it against me)
It's not africa day here in ZA.
but then, i am completely out of synch with the outside world.
Putting the HEAD back into Hedonism
It's cute how you believe in things. - Slither
I thought you lived in SA? Well today we're celebrating Africa Day.
Signed: "You laugh at me because I'm different, I laugh because you're all the same."
"I was Kahlil Gibran."
"Well behaved women never make history."
What would be the United States equivalent to Africa Day? Is it like Labor Day, or maybe Memorial Day? What about Independence Day, or Arbor Day, or Veterans Day, or maybe even Presidents Day? I do doubt, however, that it would be like Columbus Day or even more so like Casimir Pulaski Day which every public school student from Illinois should recognize and enjoy on the first Monday in March. What exactly is Africa Day celebrating?
"You know, I rather like this God fellow. Very theatrical, you know. Pestilence here, a plague there. Omnipotence ... gotta get me some of that."
I think
Signed: "You laugh at me because I'm different, I laugh because you're all the same."
"Well behaved women never make history."

IT IS not always the biggest dinosaurs, such as Tyrannosaurus rex, that are the most exciting. This week sees the announcement of a 77cm fossil dinosaur find that has, remarkably, four feathered wings. It was discovered by a group headed by Xu Xing of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and is described this week in the journal Nature.
Dr Xu's team found two fossils of a new species that they named Microraptor gui, in the Liaoning province of China, about 300 kilometres north-east of Beijing. Microraptor is a theropod dinosaur, and a close relative to the velociraptor that was made famous by the film "Jurassic Park". Its feathers have an asymmetrical shape very similar to modern bird feathers. Dr Xu says that Microraptor's feathers would have allowed it to glide through the air.
Because the dinosaur's feathers go all the way down to the bottom of Microraptor's legs, the researchers believe that it did not live on land. Running would have been difficult for an animal that was dragging its leg feathers on the ground. And dirt-covered feathers would also have made flying impossible.
As no one has yet worked out a way in which hind wings could be used for flapping in flight (and it is certainly hard to imagine how a bird with four wings would actually fly) researchers think that Microraptor must have been a tree-dweller that could glide.
Dr Xu supposes that it, or a similar four-winged dinosaur, might be an intermediate stage between earlier theropods that could not fly at all and Archeopteryx, a theropod that is thought to have been able to fly and is also the earliest identified bird species. Archeopteryx, like modern birds, had only two wings; Dr Xu guesses that the rear wings atrophied as bird ancestors moved from gliding to fully-fledged flight.
This gives ammunition to adherents of the arboreal school of thought, who hold that powered flight developed from gliding. The competing school holds that flight evolved on the ground, as some sort of powered running. Last week, researchers reported that partridges could run up steep hills more easily if they flapped their wings. This provides an evolutionary advantage as an intermediate step to flight, supporting the running school of thought.
While Dr Xu's results seem to be a stroke in favour of the arboreal school, a note of caution is in order. The last time such a fossil find was announced, in the October 1999 issue of National Geographic, it turned out to be a falsified specimen—the head and body of a primitive bird had been glued to the legs and tail of a theropod. But since Dr Xu and his collaborators were those who uncovered the hoax, there is good reason to believe that some dinosaurs had feathers.

Download a PDF copy of the FAQ about renewal for nurses and midwives (405 KB,PDF)
The following frequently asked questions (FAQ) answer common queries that you might have about registration renewal. If this information does not provide you with what you are looking for, please contact our Customer Service Team on 1300 419 495 .
You are due to renew your registration with the National Board annually by 31 May, as are nearly 354,400 nurses and midwives with general or non-practising registration.
Look out for a reminder to renew from AHPRA as confirmation that online renewal is open. You will get email reminders several times during the renewal period, so check that AHPRA has your current contact details. Be sure to check the national register to confirm your registration details.
Yes, you are required to provide your residential address. This information is not shown on the national register.
AHPRA, on behalf of the National Board, needs your residential address to help in processing domestic criminal history checks and so that AHPRA is able to contact you, particularly if you are randomly selected for an audit.
A series of email reminders will also be sent throughout the renewal campaign. AHPRA needs to be able to contact you by post if an email reminder bounces back undelivered.
Yes, you need to renew by 31 May - unless you are a new graduate and are registering within weeks of 31 May.
Registration is renewed annually by 31 May regardless of how long you were registered during the previous 12 months. The National Law states that the period of a practitioner's registration can be for no more than 12 months. Hence, a national annual renewal date was set.
If you are a graduate who registered within two months prior to the 31 May annual renewal date you are registered to practise until 31 May of the following year. Check the national register if you are not sure when your registration is due for renewal.
As a nurse and/or midwife in Australia, you must meet National Board registration standards when renewing your registration. These registration standards include criminal history, professional indemnity insurance, recency of practice and continuing professional development (CPD).
As of 4 February 2015, a new process applies for checking criminal history outside of Australia. For more information, please refer to the International criminal history page on the AHPRA website.
The National Board expects you to declare on your registration renewal form that you have met the requirements set out in the registration standards and as they apply respectively to the nursing and midwifery professions. Before making any declarations, you must read the National Board requirements for renewal of registration, particularly regarding recency of practice, continuing professional development (CPD) and professional indemnity insurance (PII) arrangements.
No, as a person holding registration as both a nurse and a midwife, you are required to make separate recency of practice declarations for each profession at the time of registration renewal. This is to ensure competence in both professions within the preceding five years.
If you are seeking to renew your registration as a registered nurse and registered midwife, you must be able to demonstrate that you meet the competency standards required for a nurse and a midwife, as well as meet the registration standards as both a nurse and a midwife.
If you are applying to renew dual registration, carefully consider what evidence you are able to provide to meet the relevant competency and registration standards for each profession.
There may be common elements of work and education applicable to nursing and midwifery that you can submit as evidence when applying for dual registration.
Across the states and territories, a number of nurses with sole qualifications in the fields of mental health, paediatrics or disability nursing transitioned into the National Scheme with variations in the way this information was published on the national register.
The National Board has addressed this issue so now there is consistency in the type of registration held by nurses with similar qualifications who work in these three fields of nursing. If you transitioned and this applies to your registration, then you are now registered with general registration with the respective notation of:
This change affects some nurses who hold general registration or general registration with a condition; some internationally qualified nurses; and all nurses with limited registration. Further information is available under Endorsements and Notations on the National Board's website.
Renewing your registration online using your AHPRA user ID and password is quick and easy. Last year more than 95 per cent of nurses and midwives renewed online and on time. If you experience any difficulties, please phone the Customer Service Team on 1300 419 495 and a team member will talk you through the process.
Your user ID will be included in the registration renewal reminders you will receive from AHPRA. Alternatively, you can complete an online enquiry form and select 'Online Access' as the category type. You can get a new password by entering your user ID on our Reset your Password page.
See the fees schedule for costs of annual renewal and registration. There is an annual renewal fee for 12 months of registration. As a nurse and/or midwife, the fees that you pay are the lowest of all registration renewal fees for health professionals in the National Scheme. These fees have been set at a level that enables the National Board to effectively regulate nurses and midwives in Australia and meet its legal responsibilities under the National Law.
If you submit your application to renew in the one-month late period after 31 May, you will be charged a late payment fee. The fee recognises the additional costs of managing late renewals and is payable on top of the annual renewal fee.
Yes. It is a requirement of the National Law that the suburb and postcode of your principal place of practice is published on the national register. A form is available if you believe that publishing information about you on the public register would pose a serious risk to your health or safety as a nurse or midwife. The National Board will consider each application individually.
You can choose the online option 'not to renew' or ignore future reminder notices. In order to ensure that everyone who intends to keep practising is reminded to renew, AHPRA will continue to send reminders to nurses and midwives who:
If you do not renew your registration, you will receive a letter after the late period confirming that your registration has lapsed. Your name will be removed from the national register and you will not be able to practise nursing and/or midwifery in Australia. If you want to resume practice in the future you will be required to lodge a new application for registration.
Once your application is processed, your details will be updated on the national register. About one month later, AHPRA will send you a receipt, an A5 size certificate and a pop out wallet-sized card. There is also an online service so you can print out a current copy of your registration certificate should an employer need it before the A5 size hard copy certificate arrives.
You have a one-month late period after the registration expiry date during which you can apply to renew (by 30 June), under the National Law.
If AHPRA receives your application before the end of the one-month late period, you will remain registered and be able to practise within the scope of your registration. Your listing on the national register will be updated when processing of your application is complete.
If AHPRA receives your application during the one-month late period, you will incur a late payment fee. This applies to all nurses and midwives who do not renew by the registration expiry date (31 May) and apply in June.
Your registration will lapse if you do not renew within one month of your registration expiry date. Your name will be removed from the national register under the National Law and you will not be able to practise.
If you wish to keep practising you must submit a fast track application for registration. Fast track application forms will be available on the National Board website or by phoning the Customer Service Team on 1300 419 495 during July.
If submitting a fast track application, you cannot practise until your application is processed and your registration details are updated on the national register.
Yes. A fast track application fee is payable in addition to the annual renewal fee. You must submit your application in the four weeks after your registration lapses if you wish to keep practising.

Video Compilation Of CBS Smokeshow Nicole Brewer's Bitchy Catfight With Weather Lady Carol Erickson
YouTube Description
Sexy News Anchor Nicole Brewer of Channel 3 CBS Philly seems to not really get along with the weather lady Nicole. Needless to say these two are constantly cat fighting on live TV!
Wow — people are watching Channel 3 news? That's wild. I didn't even know they a morning news show. Thank God somebody was though because this shit is next-level snatch-on-snatch crime. It's obvious that Carol is annoying in the mornings with her natural effervescence and bubbly caffaineless 5AM attitude, but that doesn't clear the way for Nicole to take her four morning glasses of pinot grigio out on her. She's just the weather lady, Nicole. Bitch can't stop you. Just say she has a pretty halo, kick her ass to the background, and get back to being the star.
PS – Broads.

With the recent problems in Europe boiling over an election that have drew the socialist party into power in France for the first time since the 1980's. I find myself half-afraid and half-intrigued. In America, the idea of having a socialist party legitimate enough to gain power is laughable.
One of my most shocking experiences abroad occurred in Vienna. I visited Austria after my classes had ended and before my flight home. While I visited, the Austrian Labor Day occurred, and to celebrate all of the Socialists in the surrounding regions paraded through the city. This was a huge event for me. I could never imagine something like this occurring in Indianapolis, for example. At the very least, I can't envision itbeing without incident.
This granted me a bit of perspective. Although I'm still in the process of discerning my own political affiliations, I can appreciate what we do have here in America. Call me sentimental, but I like the idea of a man pulling himself by his boot straps, working hard and being rewarded in the end. I can't bring myself to support a system which levels all people. Not that I want to make this post a political statement–my point is moderation is great, and I believe America works very hard between its two parties to achieve this.
But it all raises the question of how should a country deal with fiscal problems? Is it a matter of spending more to heal an economy, or should the spending of a government be restricted to its means? I sometimes fear that the standard of living in our country is a house built on the sand of trillions of dollars of debt, waiting for a storm to sweep us away.
What I urge my readers is to inform themselves. Nothing is more harmful to a political or economic crisis than ignorance and a population willing to believe anything it hears. I'm trying to work through this. I'll be the first to admit that it's quite difficult. Good thing I have a place to turn to.

PARTICIPATE: For Anyone
How to participate
Pictured in photo above: Matt and Linda Greenlaw, Salinas cycling regulars, at the National Steinbeck Center.
Whether or not you bike—or have an "H-E-R" type business or organization—
you can support this ecology-economy sustainability project.
If you wonder, "How can I help?"
Check these ideas for individuals, civic groups, business associations,
non H-E-R businesses and organizations, travel clubs, and others.
- Make an extra effort to support the HER Helmet Thursdays participants–the businesses and organizations who are building a more bike-friendly county. Even if you never bike yourself (so can't get a discount on Thursdays), show your appreciation by supporting them any day of the week. (And if you might like to bike, consider using a bike-and-ride option–bike only part-way, as your stamina and schedule permit.)
- Pass out mini-fliers or put a poster in a display window or local information binder. If you don't find what you'd like to use on the "Posters, Widgets, and Other Project Resources" page, contact me for custom materials.
- Share news of HER Helmet Thursdays at special events, annual celebrations, classes or slide shows; via newsletters, radio shows, media local blog rolls, school blogs; on club calendars or special event calendars; via municipal websites, event websites and online social networking (i.e., Facebook) groups, and the like. Share it with economic groups and gatherings, with environmental sustainability groups, civic and faith-based groups, and other organizations.
- Tell others who are seeking a new volunteer project about this ecology-economy partnership. HER Helmet Thursdays is best built on existing relationships in the community as it also develops new partnerships. And it's intended to expand steadily and continue long into the future. Neighborhood business associations, college students meeting community service hours, scouts working toward eagle rank, faith-based groups, and civic groups may want to be a part of helping this countywide program grow.
Please contact me regarding other ideas.

The conserved FER-CIP4 homology (FCH) domain is found in the pombe Cdc15 homology (PCH) protein family members, including formin-binding protein 17 (FBP17). However, the amino acid sequence homology extends beyond the FCH domain. We have termed this region the extended FC (EFC) domain. We found that FBP17 coordinated membrane deformation with actin cytoskeleton reorganization during endocytosis. The EFC domains of FBP17, CIP4, and other PCH protein family members show weak homology to the Bin-amphiphysin-Rvs (BAR) domain. The EFC domains bound strongly to phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and deformed the plasma membrane and liposomes into narrow tubules. Most PCH proteins possess an SH3 domain that is known to bind to dynamin and that recruited and activated neural Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (N-WASP) at the plasma membrane. FBP17 and/or CIP4 contributed to the formation of the protein complex, including N-WASP and dynamin-2, in the early stage of endocytosis. Furthermore, knockdown of endogenous FBP17 and CIP4 impaired endocytosis. Our data indicate that PCH protein family members couple membrane deformation to actin cytoskeleton reorganization in various cellular processes.

EUGENE, Ore. — It's one of the most competitive races and one of the most beneficial for Lane County children. The countdown has officially begun to the Great Rotary Duck Race.
A couple hundred Rotary Club members met at the Valley River Inn for the kickoff event, Tuesday.
Money raised will benefit six local agencies, working to prevent child abuse and neglect. Jasper Mountain is one recipient; they serve abused children, ages three to 13 years old, with behavioral and psychological problems.
Jasper Mountain plans to use the money to add new classrooms to their existing school.
"We really are stepping on each other, and the kids I think will really benefit from. You know, the school's going to have four classrooms, evenly spaced, nicely designed so it will be really good," said Jeff Huston, Jasper Mountain Representative.
Last year, 70,000 were dumped into the Willamette River. This year they hope to have a 100,000.
The Great Rotary Duck Race is October 12. Tickets are $5.

CLA??? My "Muffin Top" days are over? Positive thinking….
My Research on CLA…is this fat blasting dynamite for real?
My nutrition "supplement" cupboard is getting crowded, and my wallet has taken a hit after viewing the Dr Oz show repetitively for weight loss products. I may have to retreat my canned goods to the garage to make room for my nutritional supplemental "stash". But I am still intrigued by Dr Smart Oz himself and the products he encourages us "fatties" to ingest so I did some more research on the famous "belly blasting CLA". I was interested by his recommendation to use a supplement CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid) for loss of "belly fat". After I purchased my original CLA I did not notice much of a difference. So I wondered if perhaps my CLA was placebo or the wrong dosage. I investigated more and found out some interesting facts. I also found out that my brand of CLA probably had little to no CLA in it, or wrong kind. No wonder I failed miserably! So, after researching in more detail, I want to share some of this important data before you purchase CLA for personal use….
What exactly is CLA?
CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) is a slightly modified form of the Omega-6 fatty acid. Basically, if you took the very curvy linoleic fatty acid, and made it straighter, you would have CLA. While our body produces over 100 fatty acid, there are 3 fatty acids the body cannot make on its own – linoleic acid, arachadonic acid and linolinic acid. Since these 3 fatty acids are essential to good health – they are called Essential Fatty Acids.
What foods contain CLA and why are we not getting enough in our diet?
The highest concentrations of CLA are found in beef, veal and certain dairy products. To a lesser extent, CLA is also found in vegetable oils. The problem is that there has been a dramatic decrease in the amount of CLA found in meat and dairy product. In 1963 scientist found that CLA was 2.81% of milk fat. By 1992, CLA was only 1% of milk fat.
The reason for the decline of CLA in meat and dairy products is how our cattle are raised today. To increase profits, most farmers use hybrid feed for the cattle that does not rely heavily on natural grasses. Contrast this to 40 years ago, when almost all cattle were fed with grasses. This change in the diet of the cattle has led to a decrease in their CLA levels.
In addition, many Americans have moved away from eating red meats and fatty foods for health reasons. This change in the American diet, means that most Americans are now deficient in CLA. This may be one of the primary reasons that obesity has gone up as the fat in our diet has gone done.
How do I increase my CLA intake?
While eating more meats will increase you CLA levels, our cattle today is so deficient in CLA that you will have to eat a lot meat to get the necessary CLA. You would need to consume 500g of fat, mostly saturated, each day to get about three grams of CLA.
The best and easiest way to increase CLA levels is through CLA supplements. As we will discuss, you need to be careful when picking a CLA supplement because not all supplements have the appropriate type that is easily consumed by the body. In addition, if you want to take the same amount used in the clinical studies on weight loss, you need a brand that will yield 1,000 mgs of active CLA per capsule. Since CLA is always in carrier oil, only 80% of the capsule will be active CLA. For this reason, you need to take a 1285 mg capsule of CLA oil to yield 1000 mg of active CLA.
CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) has been shown to
- Decrease the risk of break cancer
- Increase metabolic rate
- Decrease body fat
- Enhance muscle growth
- Promote a healthy heart – lowers cholesterol and triglycerides
- Lower insulin resistance
- Enhance the immune system
We know the above list looks to be good to be true, but over 200 studies on CLA have shown the above statements to be accurate.
How does CLA burn fat?
CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) has been shown to increase lean muscle mass, while decreasing body fat. Research shows that CLA is able to reduce body fat in three key ways:
- CLA interferes with a substance in your body called lipoprotein lipase that helps store fat in your body.
- CLA helps your body use its existing fat for energy.
- LA increases lean muscle tissue more muscle means your body can burn more fat.
CLA appears to exert direct effects on adipocytes, which are the principle sites of fat storage and skeletal muscle cells and are the primary sites of fat combustion. It has been proposed that the physiologic mechanism of body fat reduction by CLA involves inhibition of fat storage in adipocytes coupled with elevated b-oxidation in skeletal muscle. An overall increase in skeletal muscle tissue may be mediated at least in part via the inhibition of immune-induced catabolism.
Does CLA have a stimulant effect?
No! Unlike traditional fat burners that try to speed up your heart rate and make your body run hotter – CLA does not have these problems. CLA is stimulant free and can be generally used without any side effects.
Does CLA work against that terrible fat around my waist?
Yes. CLA has been shown to be very effective in reducing waist size. The weight around your waist is fat. CLA helps burn and liberate fat – so it can have great results around your middle. This is contrast to many diet pills that really just help you lose water weight.
How much weight will I lose with CLA?
You will lose some weight however, the key with CLA is that you are vastly improving your body composition as opposed to just dropping weight. Remember, muscle weighs more than fat. So, as you turn fat to muscle, you may not lose much weight, but you will be dropping inches around your weight and improving your overall look as muscle replaces fat.
In addition, as you increase muscle mass and drop fat, you will feel better and be more inclined to exercise. In turn the increased exercise will help you drop pounds.
Can I use other fat burners with CLA?
For the most part – yes. Remember, CLA is an extremely beneficial health supplement, that just happens to also burn fat without side effects. If you are looking for more dramatic and quick weight loss results, you could use a stimulant based weight loss pill in addition to CLA. Before starting any supplement program we always recommend you check with your Doctor first. Only your Doctor knows your medical history and can give you specific medical advice.
Is all CLA equal when it comes to fat burning?
No, No and No! This is one of the most misleading aspects of the CLA industry. The human weight loss studies were only done using a high end form of CLA. With hundreds of manufactures making CLA, many have been randomly tested and contain little of the CLA that they need to get the optimal results. For more information on a reputable source for CLA contact email@example.com . I will supply a list of quality retail sources.
How long will it take before I see the above benefits?
CLA is not a quick fix supplement; rather it should be viewed as an excellent long term supplement. Similar to vitamins or minerals, CLA is something you take every day and over the course of a few months you start to notice how much better you are feeling. We strongly recommend you use a CLA supplement for at least 6 weeks before making any judgment on its effectiveness. If you are starting to see some good results in 6 weeks, you should continue to take CLA on a daily basis.
In the end, while the results can take a few weeks to materialize, the results are well worth the wait. We should also stress that CLA is not a miracle pill. It always makes sense to exercise and eat healthy to see the most significant results.
Are there any side effects from taking CLA?
Supplementing with CLA has been shown to be very safe. With over 200 studies done on CLA, the only real side effect some people notice is an upset stomach if they take large amounts of CLA.
Of course, as with any supplement, you should check with your Doctor before starting a new supplement program.
Where does the CLA in CLA supplements come from?
Scientist have found that CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) can be extracted from sunflower and safflower oil. Making CLA from sunflower is much cheaper than safflower, this is why most supplements use sunflower oil or a combination of sunflower and safflower oil.
Which is a better source of CLA – sunflower or safflower oil?
Safflower is a much better source of CLA. If you take 1 gram of Sunflower Oil, only about 40% of it will contain active CLA. So, in 1 gram (1,000 mg) of Sunflower oil CLA supplements, you only get 400 mg of CLA.
Safflower oil contains 80% CLA. So, in 1 gram (1,000 mg) of Safflower oil CLA supplements, you get 800 mg of CLA.
Unfortunately, because Sunflower oil is much cheaper than Safflower oil – most companies will try to use Sunflower Oil CLA in their supplements.
If you would like to find a reputable retailer with sunflower oil capsule email email@example.com for a conclusive list of retailers

Seat belt use seemed to get a slight bump in New Jersey in the weeks after Gov. Jon S. Corzine nearly died in crash when he was riding unbuckled.
The Division of Highway Traffic Safety said today that 91.4 percent of New Jersey motorists were buckled up during the "Click It or Ticket" campaign from May 21 through June 3.
The percentage of people wearing seat belts has never been higher in the state. Last year, 90 percent were buckled up.
Seat belts got some positive publicity after Corzine's April 12 crash, which left him with life-threatening injuries.
Soon after he was released from a hospital 18 days after the crash, he recorded a public service announcement begging everyone riding in a car to wear a seat belt, just in time for the annual crackdown.
Police across the state issued 58,170 citations to people who were not buckled up during the 2007 campaign, up from 56,360 a year earlier.

Summer Must Do's For A Flawless Complexion
This summer seems hotter with more humidity and as always plenty of air pollution floating around. Your skin is your first line of defense so here are tips to keep it clear, bright and glowing.
- Carefully select your sunblock. Avoid oily and heavy formulas unless you are blemish free, mature and very dry.
- Consider a moisturizer that is lighter on emulsifiers and heavy on antioxidants. Perfect for days when its humid and sticky.
- Toner becomes a key player in the summer months. Applying toner to your skin a few times per day will ensure a blemish free, less congested complexion. It's a must after your nightly cleansing routine.
- Retire your retinols and exfoliants if you are exposed to the elements or traveling to sunny destinations. Replace these with light but powerful serums and lactic acid that can exfoliate and rehydrate at the same time.
Skin Illuminated, Possibilities Unlimited
Summer Recommendations from Kinara:

Bad companies > Altria Group (Philip Morris, Kraft Foods) What's wrong with Altria? Altria Group is the new name for tobacco and food giants Phillip Morris and Kraft Foods. Wherever they work, Altria has demonstrated irresponsibility and lack of concern for public health, human rights and the global environment. Chairman and CEO: Louis C. Camilleri Short history: Philip Morris acquired General Foods in 1985 and Kraft Foods in 1988. In April 2002, Philip Morris changed it's name into Altria, a corporate umbrella, this to have a distance from the controversy surrounding the tobacco industry. Activities: Philip Morris produces seven of the top 20 best-selling international brands, including Marlboro, the world's top-selling cigarette brand, Lark, Chesterfield and L&M. Kraft Foods is the second-largest branded food and beverage company worldwide. It sells its products in more than 150 countries. Bush donor: Altria is one of the top ten sponsors of Bush. From 2000 till now, Altria has given US$6,990,000 to the Republican Party. Lobbying against the FCTC: Philip Morris uses every resource at its disposal to block or weaken the World Health Organization's proposed Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC), who establishes an important precendent for international regulation of corporations that profit at the expense of our health, our environment and human rights such as the agribusiness, oil, pharmaceuticals, water and weapons industries. Killing people: In high-income countries, 15.000 youth become addicted to tobacco every day, 84.000 in middle- and low-income countries. Tobacco is responsible for one death every ten seconds worldwide, killing nearly 5 million people every year. If current trends continue, tobacco will become the world's leading cause of death by 2030. Aggravating world famine: The fertile land appropriated for the production of tobacco is enough to feed millions of people worldwide. Chemical pollution: Tobacco growing can deplete the soil in 2 years and requires the heavy use of dangerous chemicals which contaminate our environment and put tobacco farmers at risk. Exploiting child workers: The use of child labourers in tobacco production is widespread in major tobacco producing countries. Children are directly exposed to a cocktail of highly toxic agro-chemicals. Deforestation: Tobacco is a major cause of deforestation. Worldwide, between 1.2 and 5.5 million ha. of forest - one in eight trees cut down in the world - is due to tobacco growing or curing. Clearing forests for tobacco production causes soil erosion and related ecological damage. Curing, - or drying out - by burning wood the harvested tobacco leaves from their natural green to the brownish colour seen in cigarettes, uses huge amounts of wood fuel, especially timber - trees which could be used for cooking and heating by local peoples.
