IBERIABANK Corporation Announces The Completion Of Acquisitions Of Florida Gulf Bancorp, Inc. And Florida Gulf Bank
LAFAYETTE, La., Aug. 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- IBERIABANK Corporation (NASDAQ: IBKC) ("IBKC") , the holding company for the 125-year-old IBERIABANK ( www.iberiabank.com), announced completion of the acquisition of Fort Myers, Florida-based Florida Gulf Bancorp, Inc. ("Florida Gulf") and its subsidiary bank, Florida Gulf Bank. The acquisition, including the merger of the subsidiary bank with and into IBKC's subsidiary, IBERIABANK, was completed after the close of business on July 31, 2012.
At June 30, 2012, Florida Gulf had total consolidated assets of $357 million, $240 million in net loans, and $287 million in total deposits. IBERIABANK anticipates the conversion of Florida Gulf Bank's branch and operating systems to occur by the end of August 2012.
William P. Valenti, President and Chief Executive Officer of Florida Gulf, was named Market President for Lee County for IBERIABANK. Valenti commented, "With this combination, we will continue to focus on delivering best-in-class banking products and the power of personal service to our local clients, with the support of a strong regional bank with superior capital strength."
"We are delighted to welcome the shareholders, clients and associates of Florida Gulf to our company," said Daryl G. Byrd, President and Chief Executive Officer of IBKC and IBERIABANK. Byrd continued, "Bill and his executive team have built a solid, high-quality organization in Lee County. The combination of these two great franchises enhances our standing as one of the strongest banks in Southwest Florida."
Shareholders of Florida Gulf will receive 0.466 share of IBKC common stock per share of Florida Gulf common stock. The stock issuance is valued at approximately $37 million in the aggregate, based on 1.6 million shares of Florida Gulf common stock outstanding and IBKC's closing stock price of $46.82 per share on July 31, 2012. In addition, approximately $4.1 million in Florida Gulf preferred stock was redeemed by Florida Gulf immediately prior to consummation of the acquisitions. At June 30, 2012, IBKC had total consolidated assets of $12.1 billion, total shareholders' equity of $1.5 billion, and a tangible common equity ratio of 9.37%. IBKC's common stock trades on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol "IBKC." IBKC, a bank holding company headquartered in Lafayette, Louisiana, has 269 combined offices, including 179 bank branch offices in Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, Alabama, Texas, and Florida, 22 title insurance offices in Arkansas and Louisiana, and mortgage representatives in 59 locations in 12 states. IBKC also has eight locations with representatives of IBERIA Wealth Advisors in four states, and one office of IBERIA Capital Partners, L.L.C. Forward Looking Statements To the extent that statements in this press release relate to future plans, objectives, financial results or performance of IBERIABANK Corporation, these statements are deemed to be forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements, which are based on management's current information, estimates and assumptions and the current economic environment, are generally identified by the use of the words "plan", "believe", "expect", "intend", "anticipate", "estimate", "project" or similar expressions. IBERIABANK Corporation's actual strategies and results in future periods may differ materially from those currently expected due to various risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially because of factors such as the current level of market volatility and our ability to execute our growth strategy, including the availability of future FDIC-assisted failed bank opportunities, unanticipated losses related to the integration of, and accounting for, acquired businesses and assets and assumed liabilities in FDIC-assisted transactions, adjustments of fair values of acquired assets and assumed liabilities and of deferred taxes in FDIC-assisted acquisitions, credit risk of our customers, effects of the on-going correction in residential real estate prices and reduced levels of home sales, sufficiency of our allowance for loan losses, changes in interest rates, access to funding sources, reliance on the services of executive management, competition for loans, deposits and investment dollars, reputational risk and social factors, changes in government regulations and legislation, more stringent capital requirements, increases in FDIC insurance assessments, geographic concentration of our markets and economic conditions in these markets, rapid changes in the financial services industry, dependence on our operational, technological, and organizational systems or infrastructure, hurricanes and other adverse weather events, the modest trading volume of our common stock, and valuation of intangible assets. These and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements are discussed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), available at the SEC's website, http:// www.sec.gov , and the Company's website, http:// www.iberiabank.com , under the heading "Investor Information." All information in this release is as of the date of this release.

ABC News' Sunlen Miller (@SunlenMiller) reports:
As the Senate floor opened this morning, after a whirlwind weekend in which Congress worked to find a deal on the debt ceiling with the Tuesday deadline looming, the Senate Chaplin, Dr. Barry C. Black started the day with another poignant prayer.
"Although life's challenges sometimes prompt us to feel that we are rearranging furniture in a burning building, we take comfort in the knowledge that you hear and answer prayer," Black said. "We thank you that our lawmakers are striving to find common ground."
The Senate is expected to vote perhaps as early as this afternoon on the final debt deal, so there is still work left to do before a formal deal is signed onto, something the Chaplin noted this morning.
"While work remains to be done empower them to discover opportunities in this current crisis to build permanent bridges of cooperation as they remember that with many counselors there is safety."
And a final word from the chaplin about those Congressional staff members who worked for days and weeks leading up to the long weekend in which a deal was finally brokered.
"Bless the members of their staffs who have labored diligently so that we can see the beginnings of a rainbow after the storm. May these sometime unsung heroes and heroines know that you will reward their faithfulness."

Friday, March 19
Madison Square Garden
Attendance: 19,763
New York, NY (Sports Network) - Toney Douglas netted 14 of his 22 points in the last quarter and hit a trio of key three-pointers down the stretch, as the Knicks came back from a nine-point fourth-quarter deficit to upend the Sixers, 92-88, at Madison Square Garden.
Danilo Gallinari led all scorers with 25 points and had seven rebounds for the Knicks, who have won two of their last three games.
Bill Walker added 15 off the bench as the Knicks beat the Sixers for the second time in a week. Al Harrington contributed 11 points and 13 rebounds for New York, which won despite David Lee (knee tendinitis) missing his first game of the season.
Elton Brand scored 19 points for Philadelphia, which lost for the fifth time in six games. That includes a 94-84 home loss to the Knicks on Monday. Andre Iguodala chipped in 17 points and seven rebounds, and Jrue Holiday recorded 15 and eight boards in the loss.
"When a team plays zone, they are trying to get you out of your flow," said Kapono. "We just have to do a better job of not letting that put us on our heels. We just played too slow."
The Sixers tied the game at 82 on two Lou Williams foul shots with just over four minutes left in the game. Jason Kapono drained a triple with about 2 1/2 to go, giving Philadelphia the 85-82 cushion. But Douglas continued to knock down shots from behind the arc, tying the game at 85 with 2:05 left.
Iguodala connected on a technical free throw after a defensive three seconds call to give the Sixers the 86-85 lead, but the Knicks, led by Douglas, took back the advantage after the speedster drained two free throws then converted on a fast-break layup following a steal with 55.8 seconds left.
Walker made two foul shots, which was offset by a Williams layup with 36.5 left. After Douglas missed a three-ball, Iguodala had a chance to tie the game with a few seconds to go, but missed a three-point opportunity well short. Douglas added one foul shot with 1.4 seconds left to secure the win.
"When you play these type of games and then you win in the fourth quarter, it's always great," said Gallinari. "It's always a great feeling."
In the final frame, the Sixers took a 76-67 edge on an Iguodala three-point play with 8:37 left, but the Knicks came back to once again regain the lead at 79-78 on Douglas' triple. He then drained another three as the Knicks led at 82-80 with under five minutes to go.
Philadelphia started the night with a 10-3 advantage on a Samuel Dalembert tip-in with 7:21 left in the first quarter. The Sixers advanced the edge to nine multiple times before Brand nailed a jumper giving them the 26-15 lead at the end of the frame.
The Knicks trimmed the deficit to three after a Douglas jumper with 9:23 left in the half, but the Sixers quickly surged ahead at 41-29 on Kapono's triple.
New York put together an 8-0 run to tie the game at 48 with six seconds left after a pair of Gallinari free throws. However, Holiday hit a bank shot with 0.2 seconds to go to allow the Sixers the 50-48 halftime lead.
Both teams traded leads in the third quarter as the Sixers led by as many as four before the Knicks went back in front at 63-62 with 1:30 left. But Iguodala continued the last-second trend for the Sixers, draining a shot with 5.5 seconds to go in the frame to take a 64-63 edge.

wow that is a great poem alittle on the scary side but still good
I wrote this about two years ago, when I was in a really, really bad mood. Today, in the dark mood I am in, I'm posting it for the first time. Please... I have very low self-esteemed, so try to be as subtle as you can when if you critize it...
Fire tears through the flesh
The hounds of hell nip at your feet
A satanic laughter rings out,
Causing an increase in heat
Flames course through your body,
Causing a bone chilling scream
Wishing for it to stop, it doesn't
An everlasting dream
Demons jeer and chant throughout
Sweat mingles with their putrid smell
Pointing and cheering all the day
Within the confines of hell
Tears pour down your face
Sizzling on the ground below
Eyes wide with glee,
As hatred takes its toll
Trapped forever in your mind,
The hatred shall remain,
Forever blossoming,
A force unable to be tamed.
wow that is a great poem alittle on the scary side but still good
Wow I really liked this poem.. the title caught my eye.. this is really deep and I say that you should post more!! I really liked this work!

Hundreds of children, holding placards that read 'Be the Change', marched from the Labour Statue to Gandhi Statue on the Marina beach here on Friday. This was to bring together privileged and underprivileged children as part of the Children's Day celebration organised by Smile Foundation.
The children walked hand-in-hand urging people to take a positive step towards changing the lives of less privileged children for the better.
Actor Partheeban flagged off the walkathon with a special message for the day. "To bring more smiles in the lives of underprivileged children we need more campaigns like this," he said. His daughter Keerthana, a child artist, also joined in the celebrations and interacted with the children who took part from various schools.
Musrath Begum, Senior General Manager of Smile Foundation said if young children from privileged backgrounds could be convinced at this age they would develop the sensitivity to respond to the needs of underprivileged children they come across around them. "If we can bridge the gap between privileged and underprivileged, we can address all kinds of issues," she said.
Children from regular schools walked together with underprivileged children from different Smile Foundation centres to sensitise people to take a step forward on issues related to health and education of underprivileged children.
The week-long 'Walkathon' is being organised in nine Indian cities including New Delhi, Kolkata, Bangalore, Goa, Chennai, Hyderabad, Chandigarh, Vadodara and Nagpur.

TASC (Test Assessing Secondary Completion) Updates |
Student Self-Registration (for Examinees who tested prior to Self-Registration) - May 23, 2014 |
Examinees who have already tested can now access the self-registration system. Just remind the re-tester to select, "I registered at a Test Center." Please see the screen shot below of the TASC examinee sign-in portal. |
Update - No 30-day Wait Period for TASC Test - May 23, 2014 |
Students do not have to fulfill the 30 day waiting period between retesting. *The 30 day wait period has been removed. Debra Kimbler *Note: This removal of the 30-day wait period between retesting applies to the TASC test only. It does NOT apply to the TASC Readiness Assessment (TRA) at this time, since there is only one version of the TRA available at this time. |
Update on Calculator Use on TASC test - May 21, 2014 |
Good Morning All, I have received several emails from ABE and Option teachers concerning the calculator used on the TASC test. When we first received the TI-30XS Multiview Calculator, it was determined that teachers needed more time to instruct students on the functions of the TI-30XS Multiview Calculator. It appears that some teachers already have students proficient on the TI-30XS Multiview Calculator and were disappointed when the student reported that the GED calculators were still being used on the TASC. Please, let your test coordinator/examiner know if your students prefer the TI-30XS Multiview Calculator, and that calculator will be provided for your student rather than the calculator used for the GED test. On July 1, 2014, all testing centers will be providing only the TI-30XS Multiview Calculator. By this date, all students attending ABE classes and Option Pathway classes should have received training on this calculator, and all examinees taking the TASC test will be issued the TI-30XS Multiview Calculator. Debra Kimbler |
Scheduled TASC Outages - May 21, 2014 |
Dear TASC Customers, A number of outages are typically scheduled throughout the year in order to maintain and upgrade CTB's online testing systems. These outages always occur during weekend and overnight hours to minimize any testing disruption. We realize that our Adult Assessment customers frequently use the system during non-traditional business hours and for that reason, we are providing you with a schedule of our planned upgrade outages for 2014 so that you can plan accordingly. The CTB Online Assessment System will be offline as follows:
We understand the impact these outages have on your operations and are therefore exploring ways to further minimize disruptions. Thank you for your understanding. If you have any questions please contact Customer Support. Sincerely, TASC Test Helpdesk |
Writing Mastery Indicators - May 21, 2014 |
Some have questioned the fact that the Writing Mastery Indicators does not break down the concepts evaluated on the test. I emailed CTB concerning this and received the following email: "Unfortunately, the only indicators that we have are listed on the Candidate Report. There is no other in depth or detailed information regarding the students performance." Debra Kimbler |
State of West Virginia High School Equivalency Diploma - May 19, 2014 |
Good Morning All, I have received many emails concerning paying the $10 fee for the letter with the raised seal, which will be sent to an employer or college until printing is available, rather than the diploma/transcript. If the individual making the request wants us to send the letter with the raised seal ONLY, the request should have these directions across the top of the request and the $10 fee does not have to be included with the request. Nevertheless, most businesses and colleges require the OFFICIAL diploma/transcript for their files. That is why we will accept the $10 fee now, send the letter for right now and the OFFICIAL diploma/transcript when we are able to print these documents. If the individual does not include the $10, an Official diploma/transcript will not be mailed later on to the employer or college. Debra Kimbler |
State of West Virginia High School Equivalency Diploma - May 16, 2014 |
Good Afternoon All, I just want to give you an update on the progress of Oklahoma Scoring Service (OSS) accepting the TASC scores in a format so that diplomas may be printed and combining the TASC and GED test scores. The programmers are working solely on this issue; nevertheless, the completion date is August 1, 2014. Until that time, we are working to see if OSS will be able to manually input the scores so that diplomas may be printed. As a result, those achieving their State of West Virginia High School Equivalency Diploma may not receive the diplomas until August. If your students need a TASC diploma for a job or to enter post-secondary, they may continue to complete the attached Release of Information Form. Once we receive the Release of Information Form we will provide a letter with a raised seal to the employer or post-secondary institution confirming passing scores. Once we are able to print diplomas, we will send the official document to the requested entity. Debra Kimbler |
Examinee Online TASC Registration - May 16, 2014 |
Good Afternoon All, It has been requested by CTB/McGraw-Hill that students who have previously taken the TASC not to use the new Examinee Online TASC Registration. Rather than use the registration system, please give these students' names to the Test Coordinator or Examiner. The Test Coordinator or Examiner will continue to register these Examinees who have previously tested on the TASC in the West Virginia Test Assessing Secondary Completion. Debra Kimbler |
Examinee Online TASC Registration - May 14, 2014 |
Good Morning All, Thanks to those who were able to participate in the WV TASC Registration Training on Friday, May 9th. The training demonstrated how Examinees may register for the TASC test online at West Virginia Test Assessing Secondary Completion, http://wv-ctb.eresources.ws/. The training WebEx should be posted on the WVDE TASC, http://wvde.state.wv.us/tasc/, and WVDE ABE, http://wvde.state.wv.us/abe/, sometime this week. Although the students register for the TASC online at a different site, the process is very similar to the Wizard process. Whatever method used by a center to provide the registration to the Examinee via the Wizard will work with the same procedures on the West Virginia Test Assessing Secondary Completion site. Registering the students varied from center to center as being the responsibility of the ABE Instructor, Option Pathway Teacher, Test Coordinator or the Examiners. The time that registration occurred was also determined by the centers. Both of these processes will work with the TASC online registration. Although the students confirm that age requirements were met, West Virginia will continue to complete the West Virginia TASC Form. This form has the requirements for the various age groups and passing the TASC Readiness Assessment (TRA). Test Coordinators will use the West Virginia TASC Form to confirm that the documents were provided for the sixteen (16), seventeen (17) or eighteen (18) year olds. Even though the confirmation for the online registration process was questioned for the eighteen year olds and older to provide documentation of being withdrawn, the West Virginia TASC Form only requests that the eighteen (18) year olds provide this documentation. We will continue with this process. I will request that CTB/McGraw-Hill remove the "and older". Although the students are able to select that the TRA was passed, West Virginia will continue to complete the West Virginia TASC Form. The Test Coordinators or Examiners will not test the TASC Examinee unless the ABE Instructor or Option Pathway Teacher has signed off on the West Virginia TASC Form that the Examinee has passed the TRA. Although the students are able to select the test date on the online TASC Registration, the staff conducting the online registration session will tell the students the date/s to select. Test Coordinators and Examiners must share the testing scheduled dates with all involved with the TASC testing procedures. Therefore, teachers will know the exact date to have the students to select and will inform the student the time testing begins. Another way to force the Examinee to select a particular test date is for Test Coordinators or Examiners to control the dates on the calendar. The Step-by- Step Procedure for establishing testing dates will be emailed to Test Coordinators and Examiners in a separate email. Although the students are able to register for the test online and the Test Coordinator and Examiner do not have control of the number of students registering for a test, the procedure used in the past will also help to limit the number registering for the testing. Registration is limited to the number of computers available. In the past with the paper based GED test, centers also had a limited number of paper pencil tests available. The number registering for the test was controlled by a sign in sheet used by the teachers or other methods. Whatever method works for your center to control the number registering for a testing session should continue to work with the online registration process. The great news about the registration process is that the Examinee will once again have access to scores and that we still maintain control over the registration process as with the WizardJ Debra Kimbler |
Accommodations - Extended Time - May 1, 2014 |
Good Morning All, Until an issue is resolved with the extended time accommodation on the computer based test, CTB/McGraw-Hill has requested that anyone receiving the accommodation of extended time to use the paper based TASC. Test Coordinators or Examiners, the paper based TASC may be requested from Debbie Lively, email@example.com. Please, let Ms. Lively know if the Examinee was approved for other accommodations such as audio version or large print, and if the Examinee has previously tested on the TASC, let her know the remaining forms available for the Examinee. I will keep you posted concerning the extended time accommodationJ Debra Kimbler |
Combining Scores - Update - April 25, 2014 |
Good Morning All, Many are sending emails requesting that scores be combined. In the email you are listing the student information and typing the scores from both the GED and the TASC. We cannot accept the typed written scored from anyone. We must have a copy of the both score reports. If an Examinee needs scores combined for the GED and TASC, please follow these directions:
Once I receive the email, the candidate is sent a letter with a department seal. The letter is congratulating the student for mastering scores to combine the tests for a passing score and also states that the process for combining scores will take a little longer; thus the diploma will take longer to process. Debra Kimbler |
Bulletin #9 - March 21, 2014 |
ABE Practitioners: We are currently experiencing some technical problems with the new online Tasc Readiness Assessment (TRA). Until further notice, any form of the OPT may be used to determine readiness for the TASC. Examinees must score a minimum of 420 on each subject area. Mathematics still seems to be the subtest with the lowest scores and I would recommend a score of 450 on the Mathematics to give students a better chance of passing. Below are two documents. One is a list of questions and answers that will be posted on the WVDE website at: http://wvde.state.wv.us/abe/. Some of the questions are specific to WV, while others are general questions and answers about the TASC. I hope this will help clear up some concerns. Many of these answers are also on the TASC website at http://www.tasctest.com/. The second attachment is the TRA scoring table that predicts readiness for the TASC if you are using the TRA. Please continue to send questions about the TASC and we will answer and post them to the frequently asked questions (FAQ) site. Here's a bit of good news. CTB informed us yesterday that even though a small number of WV students have tested on the TASC at this point, we have a 74% passage rate. Actually, I think that is GREAT NEWS! Thank you for your continued patience with the process of changing our assessment. I realize it is hard on everyone; especially our students and everyone is working very hard to resolve all the issues. Stay with us, things will get better. Dr. Debrah Frazier Varner |
Bulletin #8 - February 19, 2014 |
The State ABE Office is in the process of ordering the online Task Readiness Assessment (TRA) for all programs – ABE Programs, Option Pathway Programs, and Office of Institutional Educational Programs. We anticipate having the online version available to local programs by March 3, 2014. During this transition time (March, 2014) you may continue to use the Official Practice Test (OPT) to qualify applicants for the TASC. When using the OPT the applicant must score a minimum of 420 on each content area. Programs may order the print version of the TRA using the order form below. When completing this form, indicate your RESA and your program as the site name (ex. RESA III/Boone County Learning Center or OIEP/Anthony Center or RESA III/ Option Pathway Putnam County Career and Tech Center) and use your RESA site number (from the list below) in the space for site number. Be sure to use your shipping address – not RESA in the address line. Also below is the Purchasing Qualification Statement that must be completed for first time ordering.
The print version of the TASC Readiness Assessment will be available February 28, 2014. For other questions, contact CTB Customer Service at 1-888-282-0589. Also, while we are in this transitional phase, applicants who are applying for the PROMISE scholarship must score an average of 550 points on the five subtests of the TASC to qualify for the PROMISE. This score may change after full implementation of the TASC is in effect. Thank you for your patience with the transitional process. We are making progress every day and CTB is working with us to make the new process work smoothly. Debbie Dr. Debrah Frazier Varner |
Combining of GED and TASC Scores - Update as of January 8, 2014 |
During 2014, the West Virginia Department of Education Office of Adult Education and Workforce Development is providing a grace period of one year for combining GED® passing score/s and TASC passing score/s to earn the State of West Virginia High School Equivalency Diploma. A TASC candidate may use passing score/s of 410 or above on the content areas of the GED® Test to be combined with the passing score/s of 500 or above on the subject areas of the TASC to earn the State of West Virginia High School Equivalency Diploma. The passing GED® content area scores must have been mastered during 2002-2013. The candidate will only have to take the subject area/s of the TASC where passing scores were not achieved on the GED® test. If the candidate passed all GED® tests with a 410 or above but did not master the total passing points of 2250 or average of 450 to earn the State of West Virginia High School Equivalency Diploma, the candidate must select and pass one of the TASC subject areas with a score of 500 to earn the deficient points. Once a passing score is achieved with the TASC subject area/s, the score report will only show the TASC scores. The ABE Instructor, Testing Coordinator or Examiner must email Debra Kimbler, firstname.lastname@example.com, the name, date of birth and Social Security Number of the candidate. If available, the TASC score/s and GED® score/s should also be scanned and included in the email. The results will be combined and a diploma will be issued. This process will take time as inputting scores must be done individually. Please, allow up to three to four weeks to complete the process. Debra Kimbler |
Bulletin #7 - December 20, 2013 |
On December 17, 2013, WVDE state staff met with representatives of CTB/McGraw-Hill in person and via webinar and agreed upon the following timeline.
While the implementation timeline is not as progressive as we would like, the ultimate goal is to transition as seamlessly as possible for our students. That means making sure we are making methodical changes by getting our testing centers fully equipped and certified, providing training for registration, verifying the scoring process and giving teachers time to find additional resources. Below are several documents for your information. These include a Fact Sheet for TASC, the PowerPoint from the TASC teacher training, a list of publications recommended by CTB, and a blueprint of the Social Studies standards. All these documents will be posted on the WVDE website in January. Additional trainings will also be scheduled in January and February to give you more information as it becomes available.
May you enjoy the spirit of Christmas with your family and friends and have a Happy New Year. Best wishes, Dr. Debrah Frazier Varner |
Bulletin #6 - November 22, 2013 |
I am pleased to announce that CTB/McGraw Hill has been selected as the vendor to provide a new High School Equivalency Assessment in West Virginia. Effective January 1, 2014 the Test Assessing Secondary Completion (TASC) will be the official assessment used to award the West Virginia High School Equivalency Diploma. TASC will be available in both paper-and-pencil and online formats to support a gradual transition to online assessment in West Virginia. The assessment consists of five subtests: Reading, Writing, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies. The cost of the test is $52 for all five subtests. Scholarships for testing fees will be provided by the state to applicants who successfully pass a practice test. Training for both Examiners and ABE Instructors are being scheduled throughout the state in December. Initial trainings will be face-to-face with webinar follow-up sessions. This is an exciting and challenging time for ABE in West Virginia. The new assessment is one of the first steps to help us move our students towards being college and career ready when they leave ABE. More information and details of the TASC will be available in the next few weeks. As always, thank you for all that you do to improve the lives of adults in WV and I hope you have a relaxing and wonderful Thanksgiving. Debbie Dr. Debrah Frazier Varner |
Bulletin #5 - October 3, 2013 |
This email is being sent as an informational update to the last bulletin sent out in September. The decision has been made by the State ABE Office to offer a grace period of 1 (one) year for students who have not passed all parts of the 2002 Series GED® test to allow for retesting. While a vendor has not yet been selected to provide the new assessment that will be used to award the West Virginia Department of Education High School Equivalency Diploma, all vendors who submitted a bid have agreed to combine GED® Test scores with the new assessment scores. We hope that this will give many students ample time to complete the test successfully. Those who have taken the 2002 Series GED® test, but not passed all five parts, still only have until the end of 2013 to pass or they will need to take those parts they have not passed with the new assessment that will be in place in January, 2014.
The State ABE Office strongly recommends that teachers, examiners, and administrators continue to encourage test takers who haven't successfully completed all parts of the GED® test to retest before the end of 2013. The WVDE Office of Communication will be launching an awareness campaign shortly to get this message to others across the state. As always, thank you for all that you do to help students build skills for success. Debbie Dr. Debrah Frazier Varner |

Those who sat bleary-eyed in front of their television sets till the early hours of Thursday were rewarded with heartbreak as once again victory eluded the Tigers even though they were very close to breaking the jinx of a winless 2014.
It is only natural that fans will despair over a defeat seemingly snatched from the jaws of victory, especially as there have been many such reversals so far this year.
But unlike those occasions, the Tigers should not be castigated for Wednesday's three-wicket loss in Grenada. However, familiar grumbles about Mushfiqur Rahim's intransigent captaincy will be fueled, especially his obstinate obsession with saving his best bowlers' overs for the death even when the game may not reach that far. That was the case during the first ODI and has been for a while now.
The result could have been different with a different team combination. One may ask whether the visiting think-tank was able to read the conditions properly and whether three spinners would have been the right choice on a slow, turning wicket. And Mominul Haque is a better option than Shamsur Rahman not only in the middle order, but also as a useful part-time bowler.
But it would be churlish to take anything away from the masterly hands played by Kieron Pollard and Denesh Ramdin. Struggling at 34 for five, Ramdin did what he does best in this situation and Pollard was simply stupendous as the right-hander was at his hard-hitting best and held his nerve to guide his team out of danger.
But praise for opponents will not suffice for Bangladesh. Before attempting a postmortem of the defeat we must give some credit, even in defeat, to the Bangladesh team for their effort in the match.
With the backdrop of one defeat after another this year, Mushfiqur Rahim's men went to the Caribbean to regain their confidence and while they showed nothing extraordinary in their first match they have done a decent job, most pleasingly keeping up their disciplines for a majority of the match.
They lacked fireworks in their batting to finish a few runs short is a competitive total but there was no empty bravado in their batting; in complete contrast to their approach earlier in the year.
The bowling missed the variety and bite at crucial moments but no one would say it was undisciplined. It was frustrating not to win the match after destroying the top order so early but the bowlers deserve applause for bringing the team back into contention defending a sub-par total of 217 runs.
One question was however in everybody's mind: Why was left-arm spinner Abdur Razzak left out when conditions looked likely to suit the slow bowlers, the team's strongest suit?
While no explanation has been forthcoming, the new coach Chandika Hathurusingha's methods so far hints that he may have started preparations for next year's World Cup in Australia-New Zealand in earnest. The pacier, bouncier pitches in that region will demand fielding three pacers. The Sri Lankan had earlier preferred to provide seaming-friendly pitches during last home series against India and may now be trying to give enough opportunities to his pace department.
While there is nothing wrong with that he will have to balance that view with the need to maintain morale by turning around the Tigers' 2014 nosedive.
Here the new coach will need to re-think his strategy and must take the advice of the people around him because his team desperately needs the winning-tonic to get back their confidence.

The 90th birth anniversary of ace singer Ghantasala was celebrated here on Tuesday under the auspices of Ghantasala Gana Samithi.
Collector C. Sudharsan Reddy, who attended the function as chief guest, garlanded the statue at Ayakar Bhavan centre near Chinna Park and addressed the gathering.
He described Ghantasala as a person who devoted his entire life to music.
He considered music as his divine duty and never saw a vocation in it.
In a representation to the government through Collector, the office-bearers of Ghantasala Gana Samithi urged the authorities to introduce life and achievements of Ghantasala in the academic syllabus of students. They felt that an artiste like Ghantasala should be alive in the minds of public for ever and be immortalised.
Singers Sudharani and Yalamarthi Ramanaiah rendered popular numbers of Ghantasala as a tribute to him.
The Collector and the committee planned to organise a musical evening in memory of Ghantasala on December 15 at Sunayana Auditorium. Samithi members P. Chandrasekhar, Vasudeva Murthy, Prahlad, K.C. Kalkura, Jaganmohan Gupta were present.
Musical programme organised by Ghantasala Samithi to mark the 90th birth anniversary

Venice, the riparian city of love. In that year of 1725 was born the man whose name would symbolize seduction: Giacomo Girolamo Casanova.
« What is love then? An illness to which man is prone to any age », claimed the one who was one after the other abbot, officer, scholar, writer, banker, con artist, magician, infantryman, spy, diplomat, but always claiming his Venetian origins. For every Casanova, here is an eau de parfum inviting intense pleasure, an amber fern mixing fine wooded tunes and touches of lemony freshness, sublimed by the elegance of lavender. Warmed with heady spices and colored by sweet fruits.

Female Superheroes/Superheroines pose for Justice, the bestselling super magazine of Metropolis in these superb illustrations by artist Stanley Lau. The Wonder Woman cover is right, crime fighting has never looked this good.
Superheroines Pose for Justice
Video Game Artist Redesigns Famous Superheroes
Comic book and video game art, while existing in very similar settings, can be widely different. The difference shows itself very well through these illustrations by video game artist Marco Nelor who recreated famous heroes in the style of fresh fighting game Injustice.
Electrical Cables Arranged to Form Paintings
Colombian artist Federico Uribe uses electric and A/V cables to create sculptures that quite qualify as paintings. He makes use of cords of different color to attain the desired shape, shade and texture on the picture, to ultimately create a very intricate image for the set he calls Contectado.
Major Cities of the World at Night, Without Light
We've seen plenty of beautiful images of cities shining in the night. But there's hardly any that would show what these cities look like at night without the lights. Well, now we know, thanks to the efforts of New York based photographer Thierry Cohen. Modern cities are too consumed by light and air pollution to have clear starlit skies as seen in these pictures.
Imaginary Towns by Francesco Romoli
Italian artist Francesco Romoli's latest series Imaginary Towns shows photographs of remarkable landscapes that might be considered somewhat surreal, but mostly represent a desolate landscape where solitary structures stand, often with a few human passers-by.
Shitty Renditions of Famous Paintings
Shitty_Watercolour is quite a celebrity on Reddit. His art, which consists of creating what he terms "shitty watercolour" paintings to relevant comments or events on reddit, has gained quite a following. Here we present a set of shitty renditions of famous paintings. Checkout his website here.
Feather Paintings
Artist Julie Thompson Artist Ian Davie paints spectacular images on bird feathers, often blending her his work with the colorful style usually seen in bird feathers. Painting feathers doesn't quite sound like an easy job. They don't have a texture as easy to work around as a canvas and they might often have a tinge of color for themselves.
Edit: These feather paintings are the work of artist Ian Davie. This post originally attributed these feather paintings to artist Julie Thompson. We apologize for our embarrassing mistake.
Mini Furniture Made From (fake) Human Skin
Looking quite realistic and super gross, this set is sculptor Jessica Harrison's representation of furniture made with fake human skin upholstery.
Wonderful Patterns Made From Razor Blades
Virginia-based artist Susan Noyes makes use of simple razor blades, and arranges them into beautiful patterns I never thought could come from those wicked sharp thingies. It's almost like a moment of zen for me right now. Also, if you scroll through the top three images first slowly, and then at some speed, it gets kind of trippy. Cool! Noyes uses a variety of blades and graph paper to achieve the result, and the repeated geometric patterns placed intricately do the rest of the work.
Artist Represents DC Characters With Blocks of Color
Our recognition of comic book characters is well developed enough to recognize them from just abstract colors and shapes. Artist ColourOnly85 has chosen the same idea for the representation of DC characters. In these illustrations, the characters are not represented by deep facial features or style, but merely by blocks of colors and sharp geometries that take the easily recognizable shapes.

Fujitsu has appointed Michael Keegan as head of its £1.8bn business in the UK & Ireland.
Keegan spent the last three and a half years leading Fujitsu's Technology Products Group for the UK & Ireland.
He takes the reins from Duncan Tait, recently promoted to head of EMEIA who is cited with 12 consecutive quarters of growth during his tenure.
Tait said: "With nearly thirty years' experience in the IT sector, and over six years leading various business units for Fujitsu Michael has a proven ability to lead and accelerate growth."
Keegan said: "With a more global approach to our business, we will be able to service our large private sector customers across borders, realising our full potential and becoming a formidable player in the IT sector globally."
Keegan previously worked at Royal Mail Group/Post Office, Magex, MasterCard and Nat West. He joined Fujitsu in 2006.
The executive moves form part of a larger restructure for Fujitsuas the company seeks to tackle globalisation in the ICT market. This has resulted in the creation of larger regions which report directly in to the Japanese headquarters.

Well the pandabot (the one that self calibrates), just released a couple new sample pictures. Don't quite know what to think about these. I mean, I don't like to knock work in progress and innovation, but these samples of the "faceless man" just seem pretty bad, especially to be showing as samples, and the yoda head didn't even print fully.

Well, I went ahead and took the plunge, and pledged for a full Eventorbot kit.
Its not like me to throw this much money towards a product that I haven't even seen a review of, but I'm just too eager to wait. Plus the inventor really seems like a great and trustworthy guy, who is going out of his way to make this product as good as it can be. Also its open source, and upgradable so I'm sure that if any problems do arise, they will be solveable. |

I have completed and am running a Prusa Air 2 http://reprap.org/wiki/Prusa_Air_2
I have achieved my goal of keeping under $1000 (so far). All was looking good then the Wade extruder I had built failed me.. So I have invested in a MBE EXTRUDER V9 http://www.qu-bd.com/ The accuracy of the Prusa Air is really good but I want to do better. So my plan is to use the existing parts and build a better one. I'm looking at the Lulzbot TK-0, http://devel.lulzbot.com/TK-0/ my plan is to get the Prusa Air to print the parts and source the t-rail locally. As for the finish, you have to sand PLA, but if you print it ABS then dip the part in acetone for 30sec (results may vary and you should do a test part first) the result is amazing. Check out this guys results http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:17404 Cheers, Matt |

At KMC, there are no surprises in our breeding program because Chocolate GREAT Danes are exactly what we are breeding for! We are where chocolate lovers come for their GREAT Danes.
KMC, where trust has been earned for a love that reaches further than any one's words. I am proud to say KMC keeps love strong by producing GREAT Danes.
As with any good breeder, we are hard at work to continue to improve our chocolates in the hope that one day this beautiful color will be recognized as a breed standard color.... just as blue, mantle and harlequin were. After all, the breeders of CH Danes today of those last 3 accepted colors did not get where they are now without breeding/fighting for what they wanted/believed in. Customer Reviews:

Above is one of our pups named Dane. On 7-30-13 Dane was on ABC WORLD NEWS! He appears right after the barking Chihuahua as he barks at the camera man and right after the red chow chasing the ball he is shown resting in the shade.
"Beauty is in the Eyes of the Beholder" (as it should be.) It should not be left up to politics to dictate what color of Dane, or any breed of canine, should or should not be bred or shown!! Every color of Dane deserves the right to live, to be loved and to be shown in the show ring! It's time for discrimination of color to be thrown out and Dane owners of any color be allowed to show in the conformation class! After all, isn't the class/category called conformation??

Mayumi asks Sadao to help her friend at another MgRonald. Chiho volunteers to help Sadao and gets a bit sad when Mayumi tells her that they only need Sadao. Meanwhile at Sadao's residence, Lucifer proposes to Ashiya and Sadao that they should do a haunted house to replenish their magic using people's fear. Chiho calls Emi and invites her to Hushimaen. Meanwhile, Suzuno informs Emi what Sadao is up to, and she is confused why Emi is so relaxed. While Sadao is working at MgRonalds, Chiho, Emi, and Suzuno get ready to enjoy themselves at the amusement part. Chiho orders from Sadao and expects him to compliment her. Though, Sadao remarks about how this restaurant was better than theirs. Then, Suzuno and Emi arrive. Emi comments on how Sadao has no delicacy while Suzuno is here to learn about society.
Later in the haunted house, Chiho runs off and leaves Emi and Suzuno when she gets afraid. Emi and Suzuno find a little girl who is lost and freaks out when the girl's head turns around without her body moving. In front of the reptile exhibition, Chiho comments how lizards appear out of nowhere while Emi recalls her fight with giant lizards. When Suzuno shares how she tasted lizard meat for the first time, Emi interrupts her. During their visit, Emi bumps into a man and drops her keys. Then, a circus monkey picks up zoo keeper's keys. Afterwards, the monkey pop out of the bush and jumps into Chiho's bosom.
Later, the circus man finds his monkey whose name is Sadao. Emi and Suzuno start teasing Sadao by talking with the monkey. At the same time, the alligators get out of their cages because the monkey has used the keys to open it. When the patrons discover alligators in the pool, Sadao uses the fear of the people to gather the alligators to him. Suzuno wonders why Sadao is helping the humans. After day's work, Mayumi's friend thank Sadao for a good job. On the way home, Chiho shares with Emi that she enjoy today. After Suzuno and Chiho depart the train, Suzuno notices a blue haired man revealing his white wings (Sariel). Back at Sadao's residence, Ashiya is still suffering from food poisoning.

I could hover it for a full 5 minutes with a good battery, so for me the power train was "good enough". Sure enough, when they started producing all those neat little 2S motors for their UM, I had my fingers crossed for a 1S brushless motor. Who knows. Anyway, now, with the Visionaire, we have a very large bird for 3D that should not worry about a little wind, so it's not so bad. But I'll take a baby Visionaire, designed by QQ, with a 1S motor anytime. (Again, winter blues, so I want small indoor birds, not large ones!) |

The two could not compete in any comparison for me. They are completely different animals. There are likely things each excells at in comparison to the other. But for me, the Edge is the fly anywhere, anytime for almost nothing machine. $5 batteries that charge in 12 minutes on cheap parkzone chargers, small enough for small parks or large yards, yet still holds its own at the club field. For me, the visionaire would only fit the club fields. I'm not saying I have anything against it, might even own one, but it would have no affect on the uses of my Edge.

Can't wait to get this plane. It's all about having fun and this is going to be a fun plane to have and fly! It seems sometimes people get too critical about how a plane is built, what equipment comes with it so on and so on. It's all about having fun. It's a hobby. If there's something you don't like about it that doesn't suit you..just don't buy it.

How I see it....with any hobby you get so involved that you forget why you're in this hobby...you like to have fun flying model airplanes.....the fun factor gets convoluted with just having fun flying...and why you are flying...relax..fly and have fun doing it with whatever plane you are flying...

Today's Shine a Light (where we take a simple action to help someone in need) is focused on our friends in Japan.
As you know, on Friday afternoon Japan suffered an 8.9 earthquake, which was followed by a devastating tsunami. Several thousand have been reported dead, tens of thousands are missing and the threat continues as at least one nuclear power plant is in danger of a meltdown.
53,000 Care2 members live in Japan.
For today's Daily Action, please take a moment to send your thoughts and good wishes to our friends in Japan by leaving a comment below. We'll then send these on to Care2 members in Japan to let them know how much we care.
We've got an important Shine a Light action to share with you today, but first a quick update and a big thank you for participating on our last action:In December, we asked you to Shine a Light on Ann P. and your response was overwhelming. Close to 1,000 people left messages of hope and encouragement for Ann as she continues to battle against cancer and overcome the challenges of M.S. Ann wanted to share this with all of you:
When Randy Paynter implemented his idea to "shine one glorious sunbeam of collective love" on an individual, he knew that a few simple words, when spoken or written with a full heart, can make all the difference in the world to the recipient. Imagine the effect when multiplied hundreds of times!As the recipient of one such glorious sunbeam of collective love, I am deeply moved by the kind words and love flowing in my direction.It is every bit as glorious to be part of the sunbeam as it is to receive it. Shine on!
