WASHINGTON, Sept. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- A new 2009 IMIA Salary Survey will offer key insight into the medical interpreting profession. The strongest participation ever is anticipated, based on trends in this fast-emerging profession. Last year, more than 400 interpreters and managers from forty-two states participated in the International Medical Interpreters Association (IMIA) Annual Salary Survey; that participation was significantly higher than in the previous year. This 2009 survey promises to provide the data needed to start looking at profession trends, and to be a research tool that interpreters and managers can use to make decisions related to medical interpreter wages.
The 2009 survey promises to yield the strongest data yet, thanks to improved research technologies provided by Cvent, a robust survey software, which will better assess the aggregate data.
"The compensation rates reflect the current standards of recruitment, training and hiring of medical interpreters. National certification will ensure competency and therefore ensure patient safety and equal access to health care in diverse populations," explained Izabel Arocha, IMIA president. "Certified ASL interpreters earn higher wages than spoken language interpreters, who are not nationally certified. This will change soon with national certification becoming available for medical interpreters. As awareness for minimum competency increases, the profession will become more attractive for those that are looking to enter a credentialed profession." Demand for qualified medical interpreters continues to grow at a higher rate than in other professions, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Abbott Thayer, operations manager of the IMIA who worked to develop the 2009 survey, reflected, "We encourage everyone committed to language access and cultural competence to participate, to quantify the working conditions of medical interprete

Growth orientation and performance effects of the entrepreneurial team specific expertise remain limited, particularly in emerging economies. Using data from face to face interviews with entrepreneurs of young high-tech SMEs in China, this paper argues that the effects of founding team's human capital on the choice of early stage firm's performance differed based upon the types of expertise held. This paper contributes to human capital theory by providing better understanding of entrepreneurial team expertise behind preferred growth orientation of early stage high-tech firms.

Horrible experience. If we had read the review from Saveen we would have spared us a bad night. The service is unattentive if not rude, the restaurant was out of napkins (on a Staurday eve?), dumplings hard, untasty, rebaked and refried. The chef signature dish, sweet and sour prawn, clearly cooked with the cheapest ingridients. So the other signature dish, chinese broccoli with ginger. We give the lowest rate to service, the lowest to food, the ratio price/quality even lower since the menu is even pretentious. The only possible plus is the location, which is lovely in Canary Wharf - but mind: dining at The Royal China will leave you so unsatisfied and disappointed which we recommend anyone to simply avoid this place.

Wow. From one UKer to another, I would love the knitting book. I have just started to knit and would love an inspired vintage knitting book as am too big for the regular vintage knitting patterns. At least that book would cater for the Bronte Sisters, which run a little larger than the average vintage lady lol

Congrats on your followers. Put me in the running for the sewing package.

Hello Marie,
My name is Alan Bamber and along with my father and brother (Roy and Steven) we run our family sewing machine business. Dad started the whole thing after the war (1946).
Anyway, I read dozens and dozens of blogs and I'm drawn to those that write from the heart. I grew up in this business and it is my everyday life.
If I had found your email address I would have used it and been rather more discreet. I didn't, so I am using your comments section as my vehicle, forgive me.
I only wanted to say how I admire the sum of your blog. It's taken time, effort and talent. Anyway, if you'd allow me, I'd like to send you a sewing machine, a Brother Innovis 10A. No charge, no fee. Choose to use it as you wish. Maybe you'd let me use the odd piece to show others what can be achieved, but it's up to you and don't be cross, I would never wish to upset you.
I have to give you some contact details, so... phone me on 0161 707 7786.
Alan Bamber I just found your blog and started following it! It's lovely :) I love your
Anyway I'ma new knitter so I'd love the knitting book :)

We're delighted to share our Aunt Nettie with you. She's agreed to answer any questions you might ask about vegetarian food, its preparation, and even clean-up tips. But we have to prepare you. She just might want to come right over to your house and help you fix dinner. To send any questions to Ask Aunt Nettie, . Editor's Note: Instead of Aunt Nettie answering individual questions, she has decided to address a number of requests from people who want to save money on the food budget and still enjoy healthy dining. This is the first in a series of money-saving tips and recipes designed to stretch those slim dollars. As an example of Aunt Nettie's impressive, penny-pinching ability to save, she still has some depression glass dishes and bowls in the cupboard--they're the real thing and she still treasures them. In future issues of Vegetarians in Paradise, Aunt Nettie and her niece Zel will offer money-saving recipes for the most extreme skinflints along with suggestions to help bargain-hunter foodies seek out cheap fare that still brings good cheer to the table.
Howdy there Darlins',
Well now, I been thinkin' some 'bout some emails I been gitten lately from folks havin' real hard times, what with they workin' hours cut an' jobs lost. Why it's just a cryin' shame.
They's good folks that always paid the bills on time an' counted the pennies carefully so's they don't waste none. Now they's lookin' fer ways ta cut down on the food budget. Some o' these folks ain't vegetarian yet, but they's thinkin' mighty serious 'bout it fer the sake o' stretchin' them dollars.
So I come up with some mighty good grub fer dirt cheap. Now, mind, it's not fancy fixin's--just good ol' fashioned tasty eats that sticks to yer ribs and keeps ya tickin' away til it's time ta ring the dinner bell again.
I been on hard times in my years an' I gotta admit it takes some real different thinkin' 'bout how ta shop fer food and even where you kin find food that gives ya value fer money.
Now I knows you kin git a cheap hamburger at McDonald's fer 'bout a dollar. I see them signs in their winders. But I jes shake my head an' click my tongue. That ain't food fit fer humans--no, no, no it ain't I tell ya true.
I been cookin-up some dern good grub with my neice, Zel, so's we kin git y'all fixin'
the kinda penny-savin' vittles I done grow'd up with. Now, we's ready ta share 'em with all them folks lookin' fer cheap eats that's good fer ya. Now, I'm headin' back inter the kitchen where I likes it best, but y'all mosey down yonder. My darlin' neice, Zel knows 'bout writin' fur better 'n I do, so she up an' wrote out one o' my idears you young'uns kin enjoy. Now, I jes knows you'll kick up yer heels 'n yell yeee haw after a good supper!
Yer ever lovin' Aut Nettie
This first article on Recession Grub features Aunt Nettie's Old Fashioned Baked Beans.
In historic times as well as recent years, beans have been shunned as peasant food. Kings and queens and people with great wealth ate the fancy meats and refined grains and often became fat and sick, while the peasants ate the beans and black breads along with potatoes and cabbage and remained hale and hearty.
If you're working full time, plan to do the bean cooking on the weekends. Beans don't need constant attention, so you can accomplish plenty of the usual chores between preparations. Start the beans soaking on Friday night. Then on Saturday morning, while you're fixing breakfast, put the beans up to cook.
Nutritional qualities:
Money-Saving Tip:
Money-Saving Tip:
Money-Saving Tip:
Check the ingredient lists carefully. Often canned beans are packed with EDTA and other preservatives you may want to eliminate. Stores like Trader Joe's and natural food markets sell canned beans without preservatives, packed only with water and salt.
Money-Saving Tip:
Here's an old fashioned dish that evokes pleasant memories of Mom's home cooking and fills your kitchen with deliciously savory aromas. Because beans take a long to cook from scratch, it's worthwhile making a hearty batch. The large quantity also allows you the opportunity to enjoy delicious leftovers that taste even better the next day. And if your grandma has bequeathed you a set of those cute little brown ceramic bean bowls, you'll swear the beans taste better when served in them. To complete the meal, serve the beans with whole grain bread and a fresh tossed salad.
2 cups (480 ml) dried great northern, pinto, lima, or white kidney beans
1 1/2 pounds (675g) tomatoes, chopped or 1 28-ounce (790g) can diced tomatoes
Quicker-cooking Baked Beans
Aunt Nettie grew up on the farm. She did not eat out of a can or reach into the freezer. There was no microwave to pop her food into. Everything she made was from scratch. All the food she ate was natural, without pesticides. It was grown right there on the family farm, and she had to cook to survive. At eighty-three years young she still leaps and bounds around the kitchen and can shake, rattle, and roll those pots and pans with the best of them. Nowadays, Aunt Nettie just shakes her head and complains, "Nobody cooks anymore. They have no idea about puttin' a meal together." She's on a mission. She wants to help those younguns eat better so they can grow up healthy like her own eight kids.

The Browns came to Washington for the first time since 1991. The game unfolded much like one from 1981. Clinton Portis was running like the Redskins' top back from 1971. This was not a game for those who love high-scoring affairs. The first half was scoreless, the first time the Redskins have been involved in a scoreless first half since the Giants came to RFK Stadium on September 13, 1981. I like a good defensive struggle but this was more a case of bumbling offense than rib-rocking defense. On the rare occasions when Derrick Anderson's passes found their targets, the Cleveland receivers usually dropped them. Anderson was three for 14 in the first half. That's a 21% completion rate. Jason Campbell was better, but not by much. Jim Zorn's play calling was very conservative and somewhat puzzling. He seemed determined to get Fred Davis involved in the offense, to the point where he called the rookie tight end's number on an end around. Speed is not one of Davis' main attributes nor is he particularly elusive. You could have left your seat to get a cold one—hell, you could have gone out and brewed a cold one—in the time it took Davis to make his way across the field. Clinton Portis picked up 75 yards in the half. He was a latter-day Larry Brown, hurling his body through cracks in the line, making something out of nothing time after time. The scoring picked up in the second half as the Redskins put together two nice touchdown drives. After the second one took it up to 14-3, the Redskins had a pair of great goal-line stands. I'll go into them in detail in another post, but although the Browns ultimately scored, they had to burn off over five precious minutes of clock after their initial first and goal at the one. This game won't burn up much space in the Redskins' 2008 highlight show except perhaps for a few Portis runs to show how he led the NFL in rushing. But there are no style points next to the "W" column.

Carlos' hit makes the highlight reel.
- Rich Tandler - Oct 20, 2008 at 10:39 PM
Agreed, Allen.
Two great things about that hit:
–It dislodged the ball. One or two plays later Landry laid the wood to Edwards but the receiver held on to the ball for a first down.
–Cribbs got up under his own power and eventually got back into the game. I was looking for the cart and the backboard as Cribbs was on the turf not moving much.

Still waiting for your breakdown of the best goal-line effort I've ever seen by a skins team.
Never thought they'd get away w/out giving up a TD on the first one, but Fletcher's play was truly amazing. And to put the D back on the field right away with the same prospect of first and goal (after, I think, one play that put the Browns in a first and goal), I thought that we'd lose the gumption to do it again.
And the hits–whew! I heard Doc say yesterday that he was going to talk to Blache about the fact that 'just a tackle is sometimes enough'–hee hee on that idea.

Yi quan, also known as Dacheng quan, is a martial art system founded by the Chinese Xingyiquan master Wang Xiangzhai (王薌齋).
YiChuan, "Yi" meaning Intent, (but not intention), "Chuan" meaning to grasp that which has been scattered.
Having studied Xingyiquan with Guo Yunshen in his childhood,[1] Wang Xiangzhai travelled China, meeting and comparing skills with masters of various styles of kung fu.[1] In the mid-1920s, he came to the conclusion that Xingyiquan was often taught wrong,[citation needed] with too much emphasis on 'outer form', neglecting the essence of true martial power.[citation needed] He started to teach what he felt was the true essence of the art using a different name, without the 'xing' (form). Wang Xiangzhai, who had a great knowledge about the theory and history of his art, called it "Yiquan" (意拳) In the 1940s one of Wang Xiangzhai's students wrote an article about his "school" and named it "Dachengquan" (大成拳), which means "great achievement boxing". This name was not used by Wang Xiangzhai. Wang thought the name was a poor choice as it was boastful and not very descriptive of the intent.
In the 1930s in Shanghai, Wang's school became famous. A few of his core students were training with him at that time. Brothers Han Xing Chiao and Han Xing Yuen, Shao Dao Sheng (perhaps Wang's most accomplished student), all came together during this period. Han Xing Chiao, who was formally adopted by Wang as a son and lived with him for 15 years, was studying One Finger Tway Na (massage), with a scholar and doctor named Qian Yan Tang. Wang studied medicine and culture with Qian Yan Tang, a famous scholar and doctor. The two hit it off and were brothers in researching many mysteries. It was here that Qian introduced the idea that further exploration of Zhang Zhuang (standing practice first and most foundationally taught by Wang's uncle and teacher Guo You Sheng), might be fundamental to the development of Yiquan. Wang researched this idea in the doctor's library, which was full of classic texts. Wang was always changing the practice and method of Yiquan, always innovating, based on natural principles. Much of the development of Yiquan was done in Shanghai. With the help of Han Xing Chiao, Wang set the Zhuang in order, creating a system of 24. Later, the basic eight postures were refined into Ju, Bao, Peng, Tway, An, Hua, Ti and closing with Jia So Su. These basic eight postures are still the core of Zhang Zhuang. After this, Wang moved to Beijing, and Han Xing Chiao followed later. When Han arrived there, he found Wang was only teaching three Zhuang. Bao is the universal Zhuang, and so Wang only really taught Bao from that point on. Most of the other practices were dropped as well (for example, push hands and Fa Li). However, students still tried to use improperly use Fa Li. When the students saw Wang move fast, they thought of it as Fa Li, or issuing force. There is actually no difference in practicing fast or slow.[citation needed] There is no force at all.[dubious ] The misconception is caused by the mind. The mind conceives of the result as based in two different states, hard and soft, as well as fast and slow. As long as the mind clings to this dualistic model, the student will break everything into two. But the moment of experience is only one.[citation needed] Wang continued development of his art, but few, if any, could follow. Only those who could grasp the one state, and keep it, can move with it. Schools that were founded by students who never progressed this far are numerous to this day. This has always been the social factor of true transmission.
The style[edit]
This section is written like a personal reflection or opinion essay that states the Wikipedia editor's particular feelings about a topic, rather than the opinions of experts. (March 2011) |
Yiquan is essentially formless, containing no fixed sets of fighting movements or techniques. Instead, focus is put on developing one's natural movement and fighting abilities through a system of training methods and concepts, working to improve the perception of one's body, its movement, and of force. Yiquan is also set apart from other eastern martial arts in that traditional concepts like qi, meridians, dantian etc., are omitted, the reason being that understanding one's true nature happens in the present, and that preconceptions block this process.
Yiquan Is a distillation of the internal aspects at the core of all arts that Wang was exposed to, including Fujian hèquán, T'ai chi ch'uan, bāguàzhǎng, and Liuhebafa[citation needed]. Other arts as well, such as the swimming dragon posture, present in shiao jiao, is transformed through feeling, understanding, and the condition of the practitioner[citation needed]. In fact, typical movements and postures from other systems abound in yiquan. It was the internal core of these other arts that made them effective. This core is what Master Wang decoded. In essence, there is only one principle of merit in all martial arts, one core, one moment of truth, one Natural Fist.[citation needed]
The actual training in yiquan can generally be divided into:
- Zhan zhuang (站樁) Standing pole postures where emphasis is put on natural condition, working to improve listening to the body and on developing hunyuan li, "Natural living force" or "all things that make the whole".
- Shi li (試力) Testing force moving exercises, trying to bring the sensations of hunyuan li developed through Zhan zhuang into movements.
All of the other practices can be put into one of these two methods.
Different schools practice some degree of different footworks, (Bu Fa and Mo ca Bu), and different movements leading towards free expression of the collected state.
Principle of Nature: All truth and action occur in Shunjian, the split second of now. Everything before and after this moment is 'Wu', the Void, and thus, uncontrollable or unknowable. All objective and preconception is fixed and not in accordance with this undetermined state of Nature. "The Dao that is called the Dao is not the eternal Dao".
Famous schools include the Han Xing Yuan (韓星垣) School, the Han Xing Qiao (韓星橋) School, the Han Shi Yiquan school (founded by Han Jing Chen), son of Han Xing Qiao), the Li Jian Yu (李見宇) School, the Da Cheng Dao (大成道) School,US. Teachers of modern yiquan include Yao Chengguang (姚承光) and Yao Chengrong (姚承榮), twin sons of Yao Zongxun (姚宗勛) and Cui Ruibin of Beijing. Teachers in Japan include Hidetoshi Mitsuoka (Head of the Japanese branch of Han Shi Yi Quan 日本韓氏意拳学会), Teachers in the USA include Fong Ha of Berkeley, CA (student of Han Xing Yuan), Andrew Plack (Han Shi Yi Quan), Glenn Pasion (Han Shi Yi Quan) of Hawaii, Sifu Gregory Fong of Portland, Oregon, Sifu John Koo of Portland, Oregon, and Master Wang Ren Gang(王仁刚, Queens, NY. Patrick "Pan" Sullivan (Han Shi Yi Quan) of Sacramento, California.

Collectively, plants contain several different families of natural products among which are compounds with weak estrogenic or antiestrogenic activity toward mammals. These compounds, termed phytoestrogens, include certain isoflavonoids, flavonoids, stilbenes, and lignans. The best-studied dietary phytoestrogens are the soy isoflavones and the flaxseed lignans. Their perceived health beneficial properties extend beyond hormone-dependent breast and prostate cancers and osteoporosis to include cognitive function, cardiovascular disease, immunity and inflammation, and reproduction and fertility. In the future, metabolic engineering of plants could generate novel and exquisitely controlled dietary sources with which to better assess the potential health beneficial effects of phytoestrogens.

Director: Beth Ann Drolet, MD, FAAD
Learning Objectives: Following this course, the attendee should be able to:
Description: Have a great idea you want to implement? As busy professionals we need to get things done but most of us have not been given specific tools for seeing a project through from beginning to end. We will borrow from the business world and demonstrate "project management" tools which can help in initiating, organizing, and motivating others to complete projects. Examples could be as diverse as planning an initiative to change tanning bed legislation, working with a medical student or resident on a research project or case report. Constructive tools will be presented to help with defining scope, time lines, milestones, and deliverables to get projects done. This will be a workshop format: during the session, participants will have the opportunity to utilize and apply project management tools to their own or case-study examples.

Hmm.. I'll look into those Tellyn24, thanks for the info.
I also think this a bad move on Nintendo's part. Common, even if Nintendo released a movie of there own, it's not like the little fan piece would make less people watch the real deal. The opposite is true even.
One of the greatest games ever!
I beat the game 100% percent for the computer, without cheats.
Rank: Fleet Admiral!
Super awesome game!
Sad to here that...
I am happy about the way the developer handled it great to see him post here and I hope they do make a new game and take everything mentioned here to heart.
As a game developer myself, I know what it's like when someone points out the flaws in your game that you just completely (or your beta testers) missed. It hurts.
Especially when, unlike me, you're trying to make money off of it. I image it only hurts worse. I hope the developer comes back here and reads this. My only advice is keep trying and look at the classics! Try playing old classics and think of ways to build off of the basic concepts that have latest so long.
(Also just play my games for the fun it )
I was only thinking about getting this game, until I read the review. I think I'll get it tomorrow for sure now.
Great review! Hopefully I enjoy the game as much as the review promises.
I was so hoping they would release this and now they did!
So far it's seems great, not the same as DKC2 but still pretty fun.
@ pocki
DKC2 is the better one by far. Get it for sure. DKC is fun and still a great game, but DKC2 makes it better in so many ways!
Great article! A really good read. I've always thought the USA snes was a really nice looking console.
I haven't ever played the true game but I have played a remake of it which was awesome. Perhaps he just fixed all of the problems in his remake. Can anyone that has played the real game play this and tell me how it compares?
I likewise just managed to beat it 102%.
I pretty much have to agree with everything Steven said. Well, worth the effort to finish the game. Now I just can't wait for DCK3.
Very fun! I purchased this game based on the review that it got here. Having never played or heard of it before.
It was well worth the download. I would tell anyone even remotely close to a shooter fan to get this.
An amazing fast paced shoot'em up!
Yeah! Beat the game. Now on to beat it 100%!
78% as of right now. 65 Krem Koins, 23 DK Coins.
Martin Brice, I hated DKC 64 as well.

PC O'scope/analyser
I am looking for a good PC based oscilloscope/spectrum analyser software that is freeware or shareware.
Any good ones out there that are worth trying ? Something that uses the sound card would be great, but if there is an external acquisition unit that could be built or bought for cheap that is fine too. |

If you're just looking for a cheap non-recording 'scope, make sure you check the local classifieds, ham swap meets, etc.
My first scope was a 35 year old model I picked up (along with a bunch of spare tubes and a 4.5" needle bench multimeter) for twenty bucks. It was made for colour television repairmen, so although the bandwidth wasn't written on it, I'm pretty sure it's good to at least 4.7 MHz. The only problem with old 'scopes is that they're full of old capacitors and dirty knobs. Mine still has a ~60Hz waggle that is about 10mV high. No big deal, as long as I have a good strong signal (i.e. audio line level) to beat it into submission with. I have a new 'scope now (120Mhz Phillips) courtesy of my dad, but I haven't had to use it yet. Fixed everything on my "must fix" list with the old 'scope, but I'm sure the new one will come in handy when I build my chip amp next month.. or when I finally get that other formerly -stereo-now-mono amp in my living room cracked open.

All the soundcard based o'scopes or FFTs are restricted in their bandwidth due to the sample rate of the soundcard, which is generally around 44KHz - 48KHz so you cannot do 10K THD or square waves which require 100KHz min and pref >>1MHz.
A 20MHz analogue CRO is a bare minimum for viewing parasitics on square waves. Cheers, Greg |

http://www.esi-pro.com/viewProduct.php?pid=43&page=1 Appearently the 24/192 capability is for both in- and out-put and is done in gardware unlike some others. I googled for reviews and at least one reported <.001% THD+N using thr RightMark loop back test. It's not all one would want but should resilve out to the 7th harmonic for a 10kHz test. I've seen street prices as low as $125. This doesn't refute what was written above, but it indicates that the limits are not quite as bad a formerly. Quote:
The cheapest spectum analyser (I know of) that reads in Mhz, that I know, is the Velleman (for some reason ElectronixExpress carries it much cheaper than anyone else). Unfortunately, it only has 8-bit resolution which limits the lowest distortion figures youi can measure without bulding some of your own external fixtures. It looks like one really need at least 2 instruments at6 this point in time. Even the PicoTech 16-bit resolution (which is beyond my current budget) has bandwidthy limits. |
