If you qualify as one of these exemptions, you may contact the Broward County Records, Taxes and Treasury Division at 3-1-1 or 954-831-4000, or download an Application for Local Business Tax Receipt Exemption (PDF).
You should also check with your municipality for other local tax and/or licensing requirements.
Contractor Exemptions
If your type of business is Contractor, you are state-certified and you have a Local Business Tax Receipt from your home county in Florida, you may do business across the state of Florida without obtaining a county Local Business Tax Receipt. However, even if you meet these requirements, some Broward County cities require contractors to obtain a Broward County Local Business Tax Receipt in order to obtain permits.
If your business is locally certified by your county, you may contact the Broward County Central Examining Board or call 954-765-4400 to see if Broward County can reciprocate another county's Certificate of Competency. Broward County does not, however, reciprocate Local Business Tax Receipts.
New Business Applications
Check with your municipality before attempting to obtain a Broward County Local Business Tax Receipt, especially if your business is home-based. Local Business Tax Receipts are non-refundable, and your municipality may decline your application, due to zoning or inspection requirements. In addition, your municipality may have other tax or licensing requirements.
New businesses must present applications for a Broward County Local Business Tax Receipt in person at Broward County Records, Taxes and Treasury Division, Governmental Center Room A-100, 115 S. Andrews Ave., Fort Lauderdale. You may send in a representative if you are unable to come in yourself. We do not accept/process new applications after 4:30 p.m. You can pick up an application form there, or you can download an application online.
You need a Local Business Tax Receipt for each location you operate your business from, and one for each type of business you conduct.
If you are using a DBA, you must also file a Fictitious Name Disclaimer. This ensures that the name of your business will not infringe upon other copyrights. Filing for a fictitious name is done through the Florida Department of State. Applications are available online at www.sunbiz.org, or you may pick up a copy at the Information Desk in the lobby of the Broward County Governmental Center, 115 S. Andrews Ave., Fort Lauderdale.
You can by renew by mail or in person at:
Broward County Tax CollectorRecords, Taxes and Treasury DivisionBroward County Governmental Center, Room A-100115 S. Andrews Ave.Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301
You can also renew your Local Business Tax Receipt online, UNLESS you are one of the following types of businesses, which, according to 20.45, Broward County Code of Ordinances, are required to submit current proof of certification annually. In that case, your payments must be submitted by mail or in person, with a copy of the current certification.
Changes in Business Name, Location or Ownership
You must transfer your old Local Business Tax Receipt anytime you move your business to a new location, change your business name or change business ownership. Per 205.033(2), Florida Statutes, the transfer fee is 10 percent of the base fee, not less than $3 or more than $25. There is no fee for a change in mailing address only.

Laparoscopy is a type of surgery done through several small incisions in the abdomen. Small tools and a laparoscope with a tiny camera, are placed through the incisions to allow the surgeon to see inside the belly and perform surgical tasks. This type of surgery is popular, because it usually shortens recovery time. It also leaves small scars in most cases.

Many types of surgery can now be done with a laparoscope. Some examples include:
It can also be done to help make a diagnosis.
Problems from the procedure are rare, but all procedures have some risk. Your doctor will review potential problems, like:
Factors that may increase the risk of complications include:
Depending on the reason for your surgery, your doctor may do the following:
In the days leading up to your procedure:
Talk to your doctor about the medications you are taking. Up to one week before the procedure, you may be asked to stop taking some medications.
Most commonly, you will have
anesthesia. You will be asleep.
After you are asleep and do not feel any pain, a needle will be inserted to inject carbon dioxide into your abdomen. The gas will make your abdomen expand. This will make it easier to see the organs. The laparoscope will then be inserted through a small hole that is cut in the skin. The laparoscope lights, magnifies, and projects an image onto a video screen. The area will then be inspected.
If necessary, several other incisions will be made in the abdomen. Tiny tools will be inserted to take biopsies or do surgery. The incisions will be closed with stitches or clips.
This varies greatly depending on the procedure
Anesthesia will prevent pain during the procedure. You may have soreness for a couple of days during recovery. Ask your doctor about pain medication. You may also feel bloated or have pain in your shoulder from the gas. This can last up to three days.
When you are home, follow your doctor's
instructions, which may include:
Ask your doctor about when it is safe to shower, bathe, or soak in water. You should be able to go back to regular activities in about one week. If the procedure was done to help diagnose a condition, your doctor will suggest treatment options. Biopsy results may take up to a week to come back.
After arriving home, contact your doctor if any of the following occur:
If you think you have an emergency, call for medical help right away.

Ohio's open records laws took a significant blow in a pair of Ohio Supreme Court decisions last week that could benefit public officials who, either through neglect or intention, attempt to skirt the laws' intentions.
The court ruled on February 18 that a South Euclid woman was not allowed to recover attorney fees for her efforts to uncover documents sought from the city of South Euclid even though she was entitled to recover damages up to $1,000 due to the city's unresponsiveness to her valid public records requests.
In its ruling, the court said a change in the statute in 2007 meant that attorney fees could only be awarded if a court orders the records to be produced. In the South Euclid case, the city turned the documents over before a court order had to be issued - but that was months after the original request, and only after she hired an accountant to prove the records she requested actually existed.
The ruling brought a strong statement from the Ohio Newspaper Association (ONA) of which this newspaper is a member.
"This is an egregious case," said Dennis Hetzel, executive director of the ONA in a press release. "The city stonewalled the citizen requesting the information for months, and she even had to get an accountant to show that records the city claimed it didn't have really existed."
Hetzel rightly pointed out that Ohio citizens seeking public records have little recourse other than the courts if their requests are ignored.
"Public-records cases aren't typical lawsuits," said Hetzel. "The relief you want is the record, not money, and you shouldn't have to be wealthy to fight City Hall. In this decision, the court has made it much more difficult to recover attorney fees."
Hetzel is absolutely correct.
The ability for individuals and the media to review public records is a vital check on government power at all levels. These documents, which the taxpayers own, are routinely used by news media, including this newspaper, to help provide comprehensive and accurate reporting.
Attorney General Mike DeWine calls Ohio Sunshine Laws (as they are commonly referred to) "among the most comprehensive open government laws in the nation" in his 2013 Open Government Resource Manual.
While that may be true, these Supreme Court rulings undermine that statement and, in my opinion, the intent of the legislature.
The average person or small company that has a valid records request rebuffed will now have to make a decision whether they can afford to continue the fight for the documents - documents they are legally entitled to.
Public officials, who at times selfish or other sinister motivation for keeping public records hidden, now have a license to size up the financial means of a person or entity seeking documents in the hopes of delaying to the point the request is abandoned. Delay or denial of records could become strategies if officials determine a person may not have deep enough pockets to continue the fight for documents in court.
Supreme Court Justice Sharon Kennedy cut to the heart of the matter in her dissent.
"If no fees could be awarded unless the court had ordered a party to produce records, it would allow a public office to sit on a public-records request until a case was filed and then turn over the records before the court had a chance to issue an order," Kennedy wrote.
Hetzel said the ONA would be approaching legislators to make changes in the statute, but expressed hope that the Supreme Court would revisit its ruling in the future.
One way or another, that remedy would be in the best interest of all Ohioans.

Were you looking instead for AFP tumor markers, used to help diagnose and monitor therapy for certain cancers of the liver, testes, or ovaries?
At a Glance
Why Get Tested?
To assess the risk of a fetus having certain chromosomal abnormalities, such as Down syndrome (trisomy 21) or Edwards syndrome (trisomy 18), and open neural tube defects, such as spina bifida
When to Get Tested?
Usually between the 15th and 20th weeks of pregnancy
Sample Required?
A blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm
Test Preparation Needed?
The Test Sample
What is being tested?
Maternal serum screening, or the multiple marker test, measures several substances in a blood sample in order to screen a pregnant woman in the second trimester of pregnancy. Evaluation of the pattern of results from measuring the level of these substances can be used to determine the risk that the fetus has a chromosomal abnormaility or neural tube defect. (For more detail, see the "What does the test result mean?" section.)
These substances include the following, listed below; when the first three substances are measured together, it is called a triple screen; when the fourth substance, inhibin A, is added, it is called a quad screen.
- Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a protein produced by fetal tissue. During development, AFP levels in fetal blood and amniotic fluid rise until about 12 weeks, and then levels gradually fall until birth. Some AFP crosses the placenta and appears in the maternal blood. With certain problems affecting a baby, an increased amount of AFP leaks into amniotic fluid and then into the mother's blood. As such, an AFP test is used to screen for neural tube defects such as spina bifida and may be performed as part of the triple or quad screen or by itself, especially when risk for chromosomal abnormalities (Down syndrome (trisomy 21) and Edwards syndrome (trisomy 18)) have already been assessed using First trimester screening. According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), the AFP test detects neural tube defects in 80% of the cases.
- Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a hormone produced by the placenta. Levels in maternal blood rise for the first trimester of pregnancy and then decrease during the remainder of the pregnancy. In pregnancies where the fetus is carrying the chromosomal defect that results in Down syndrome, hCG tends to be high whereas in pregnancies where the fetus has the chromosomal defect that results in Edwards syndrome, hCG tends to be low.
- Unconjugated estriol (uE3) is a form of estrogen that is produced by the fetus through metabolism. This process involves the liver, adrenals, and the placenta. Some of the unconjugated estriol crosses the placenta and can be measured in the mother's blood. Levels rise around the 8th week and continue to increase until shortly before delivery. In pregnancies where the fetus has Down syndrome or Edwards syndrome, uE3 tends to be low.
- Inhibin A is a hormone produced by the placenta. Inhibin is a dimer (has two parts) and is sometimes referred to as DIA or dimeric inhibin A. Levels in maternal blood decrease slightly from 14 to 17 weeks gestation and then rise again. Levels tend to be high in pregnancies where the fetus has Down syndrome.
Including the fourth marker, inhibin A, increases both the sensitivity and specificity of the screen for Down syndrome. According to ACOG, the triple screen detects Down syndrome in 69% of the cases while the quad screen detects it in 81% of the cases.
It is important to remember, however, that screening tests are not diagnostic of a fetal abnormality; they indicate a normal or increased risk. Of all women who have positive screening results, only a very small number of them have babies who actually have a neural tube defect or chromosomal abnormality.
How is the sample collected for testing?
Blood is drawn from a vein in the arm. For the quad screen, all four tests (AFP, hCG, unconjugated estriol, and inhibin A) can be done on the same tube of blood.
NOTE: If undergoing medical tests makes you or someone you care for anxious, embarrassed, or even difficult to manage, you might consider reading one or more of the following articles: Coping with Test Pain, Discomfort, and Anxiety, Tips on Blood Testing, Tips to Help Children through Their Medical Tests, and Tips to Help the Elderly through Their Medical Tests.
Another article, Follow That Sample, provides a glimpse at the collection and processing of a blood sample and throat culture.
Is any test preparation needed to ensure the quality of the sample?
No test preparation is needed.

Farmer's Market- Check!
There were samples of every kind and live music to complete the atmosphere.
One of my favorite items from the market were these amazing chairs. They were super comfortable, can hold up to 600 lbs, and the price was very reasonable! (actually it was a lot cheaper than I expected it to be!) I'm super tempted to buy one... You can find more information about them HERE.
I also purchased some local honey in hopes that it will take care of my allergies. They have been terrible this season and don't seem to be getting any better. I've heard many times that local honey helps those with allergies since the bee's use the pollen we breathe in to make the honey. So I bought the biggest one they had... This baby's gotta last since this is one of the last farmer's markets of the year...
(pictures in order from top to bottom) 1. Driving home from work Friday. Isn't that beautiful?? 2. The honey I bought. Yum. 3. And I have been reunited with my long lost love- Animal Crackers. Yay!
I actually was able to cross TWO items off my Fall list! But I'll save the second one for another day. :)
How has your weekend been so far? I hope it's been great!

NEW BERN — "Sunday Family Dinner: Who Made the Potato Salad?" will be on stage at 7 p.m. today in the Cullman Performance Hall of the North Carolina History Center.
The one-act play was written by Antuan Hawkins, children's librarian at the Kinston-Lenoir County Public Library and performer, and EJ Stewart, a Kinston native and noted storyteller and performer.
"I was commissioned by the Tryon Palace and Bate Foundation to write a play as a part of the African American Lecture Series at the North Carolina History Center at Tryon Palace," said Hawkins. "Each year they have a different theme, and this year's is about food. I started thinking about what happens when people get together, and food always plays a part, whether it's a funeral or a happy celebration."
Hawkins ran his thoughts by Stewart, and the two continued to collaborate until the play was born.
"As my thoughts tumbled across vignettes about food, I remembered a Cosby episode where he kept bringing different cakes from the kitchen and putting them in front of his wife. There was no talking, just jazz in the background, and all these cakes. And I thought of a church picnic with all the food … one thing led to another," Hawkins said.
The ideas the two writers batted back and forth seemed too involved, too much to pare down to a short production. "That's when the idea hit me to settle on the fellowship hall as the setting, and so many cooks making potato salad," Hawkins said.
"In the African-American community, great pride is taken in the preparation of soul food. When it comes to certain dishes like potato salad, everyone seems to be an expert," he said.
Cast members are Bonita Burney Simmons of Kinston; Shanee Dennie of Washington, D.C., and a Snow Hill resident; Terrie Oatman of New Bern; and Letari Thompson, who lives in Kinston.
A question and answer session will follow the performance, and a meal — including potato salad! — will conclude the evening.
"Every time you do something," said Hawkins, "there's always food involved."

Customer Raves & Reviews
Excellent Quality & Easy to Use!
Magnet Street is so incredibly easy to use & I am highly satisfied with my purchase! Sign up for their e-mail subscription and save a design in your profile to get some great discounts (we got free 2 day shipping + 25% off)! The quality is outstanding and the free samples really helped us see the colors and different designs before purchasing. Text and font are easily changed so we changed our invite to script on the inside for a more formal look. The coordinating postcard RSVPs are also very elegant and saves $$ because they only need a postcard (and not envelope/$.45) stamp. Highly recommend!!
I researched MANY other websites for wedding invitations and this one had the best prices for high quality paper. I chose the luxe paper and wow--it's beautiful. Some other websites charge an arm and a leg to upgrade so your left with cheap looking invitations. I chose the "waking beauty" design for the main invitations and vellum band, but used another design for the RSVP cards...I didn't feel like the ones that came with the "waking beauty" set matched at all. Overall I am highly satisfied and think these are absolutely what I was looking for!
Perfect just what I wanted.
Perfect card just what I wanted. I was originally upset when the card I first wanted ended up out of stock but I liked this card so much more I am glad now that it was. All the money I spent to get samples rolled over into my purchase. Great job!
Wedding Invitations
My fiance and I ordered our wedding invitations from MagnetStreet and to be honest we were quite nervous. We were nervous about how they would turn out based on the image we werte shown online. However, when they were delivered, they were perfect! We were concerned about the colors that we had chosen based off of our color scheme for the wedding. We really enjoyed creating the invitations and really making them our own.
Classy, beautiful, and quality invitations
I ordered my invites from MagnetStreet after a pleasant experience with my Save the Dates. I loved how every design could be customized with our wedding colors and I didn't have to filter design selections based on color. The process of designing and approving the proofs could not have been easier. I took advantage of the option to have the completed sample invitation with your wording and colors mailed, which could then be applied as a credit to the final order. It made me feel really comfortable with the process; there were no surprises. I received the invites with plenty of time to spare and couldn't be happier with the result. Even my parents liked them and at such a good value, who couldn't love them!

The Rock wrote:Just got back from the game. FINALLY a win. I bring good luck
But seriously honest to God, people in Staples Center including myself thought the bench was gonna blow that 30 point lead they looked really bad in 2nd half outside of Jordan Hill here and there. Crowd was poppin for 3 quarters and 1st half of 4th Q they were groaning and moaning and everything our bench did.
Morris couldn't get by his man, he did very little in 2nd half. Ebanks was a total dud. Jamison wasn't knocking down his outside shots and he took only 4 shots. Sacre had a couple of bad turnovers. If Mike Brown didnt' bring the starters back in I think it would've come down to single digits and they would've had a ton of momentum. He needs to put in the right players, play Meeks already, GEEZE. He doesn't commit turnovers, hes the best SG defender after Ebanks and Kobe and he can hit 3s, Brown is too stubborn for some reason
Dwight and Pau looked dominant in 1st half like they should.
Brown did a couple of things nicely...he STFU during play. Usually he'd be walking up and down the sideline barking instructions, he just sat in his chair and let the players play the whole game. He plugged in MWP to bring some offense to second unit. It worked tonight because he was fresh and wasn't chasing other SG/SF around screens all day but you cant put him next to Ebanks, both are inconsistent shooters
Hes gotta play Meeks, he offers way too much flexibility and relief in 3s/TOs/D to just ride the pine the whole game
Brown heard a lot of boos when his name was announced during introductions
And the tacos have never been this satisfying

Sam Warburton has been slapped with a three-week ban after admitting to a 'dangerous tip tackle' in Saturday's semi-final at Eden Park.
The Wales captain learned his fate after attending a red card hearing in Auckland on Sunday. Having conducted a detailed review of all the available evidence, including all broadcast angles and additional evidence from the player, Warren Gatland and submissions from his legal representative Aaron Lloyd, the independent Judicial Officer, Christopher Quinlan QC (ENG) determined the red card to be appropriate in Law and the action in line with IRB directives to unions, teams and match officials.
The Judicial Officer concluded that the offence was mid-range on the scale of seriousness, which has an entry point of six weeks. However, he found that there were no aggravating features and there were compelling on-field and/or off-field mitigating features including the player's admission, outstanding character and disciplinary record and remorse. Therefore, the suspension was reduced to a period of three weeks.
The suspension takes effect immediately and will run up to and include 6 November, 2011. He is free to resume playing on 7 November.
Warburton will no miss next Friday's third-place play-off at Eden Park.

Comments about WTB Exiwolf XC Tire:
I have run this both front and rear for the past 4 seasons on the rocky trails of northern Utah. The tire has held up great for mild to aggressive XC rides. It is NOT for downhill or freeride, but a mid-weight all-around tire that does excellent on varied terrain and can even handle limited amounts of spring mud.
I would have given it 5 stars but I found the Kenda Nevegal to be a bit better in the rough stuff.
Comments about WTB Exiwolf XC Tire:

About The Naked and Famous
The Naked and Famous Tickets - Band History
They're not naked, but they are famous. That's the tagline, of sorts, for this New Zealand indie electronic ensemble dubbed The Naked and Famous, who used a line from the song "Tricky Kid" to rebuff the notion that everyone wants to be a celebrity.
While the early origins of The Naked and Famous originally centered on the talents of vocalist Alisa Xayalisth and vocalist/instrumentalist Thom Powers, the band that formed in 2008 would go on to add members to play live shows, including Ben Knapp, Jordan Clark ane Aaron Short. Knapp and Clark later left the group, and Jesse Wood and David Beadle signed on in 2009 to complete the most current lineup.
With two EPs to their name, The Naked and Famous released their debut album, "Passive Me, Aggressive You," in 2010. It spawned the number one single "Young Blood," and the band went on a huge world tour to support the project, playing some 200 dates.
The Naked and Famous collectively relocated to Laurel Canyon, Los Angeles in 2012 to work on their sophomore release. "In Rolling Waves" arrived in September 2013 behind the lead single "Hearts Like Ours." Not only is the band busy promoting its new album, they've become part of pop culture lore, with their songs appearing in shows like "The Vampire Diaries," "Gossip Girl," "Grey's Anatomy," "True Blood," "Covert Affairs," "Chuck," "Property Brothers," "Elementary" and more. Additionally, they've also had cuts featured in movies like "Dallas Buyers Club" and in the horror flick "Carrie."

TomTom introduces OpenLR™, an open-source, royalty-free dynamic location referencing technology for all to use
Sep 08 2009
TomTom introduces OpenLR™, an open-source, royalty-free dynamic location referencing technology for all to use
~ New open industry standard with low bandwidth consumption will boost the potential for connected navigation and location-based services on any digital map ~
Amsterdam, 8 September 2009 – TomTom, the world's leading provider of navigation solutions and digital maps, developed a dynamic location referencing technology as an open standard for the navigation, mapping and ITS Industry, called OpenLR™.
OpenLR™ has been designed for traffic information systems and dynamic route guidance, and is available as an open-source technology at www.tomtom.com/openlr. It can easily be adapted to the requirements of system integrators, and the technical community can contribute with their ideas to improve it.
Location data can range from static road sign information to highly dynamic traffic and weather situation information as well as safety-critical information – anything that needs to be accurately linked to a specific piece of or position on the road network. The OpenLR™ technology allows location content providers to reference any location on any navigable map, completely royalty-free.
"This technological development is being introduced to the open source community to assist in delivering location based services to customers," says Mark Gretton, TomTom's Director of Product Engineering. "TomTom will use this technology for its own services too, allowing us to transmit content like HD Traffic™ to connected devices and improve service quality and coverage."
The technology will be presented and discussed in detail during the ITS World Congress 2009 in Stockholm between 21-25 September.
For more information, go to www.tomtom.com/page/openLR.

SEATTLE, Nov. 17, 2009 -- Upending one of the most widely followed medical directives for women, an influential panel of experts is recommending that women 50 and older get screened for breast cancer only once every two years and that most women in their 40s skip the test altogether.
The panel also concludes that breast self-exams -- a drill that women for decades have been told to perform each month -- do not reduce mortality from breast cancer, but instead lead to more biopsies producing results that are benign.
The new guidelines, published online yesterday in The Annals of Internal Medicine, go against long-standing recommendations from cancer groups, radiologists and other experts that women get annual mammograms starting at age 40.
The American Cancer Society, for one, is sticking to its current recommendations, disagreeing with the national panel's conclusion that for the younger women, potential harm from routine screening outweighs the benefits.
Swedish Cancer Institute Breast Program's Position on this Issue
Until there is clear research indicating otherwise, Swedish Cancer Institute Breast Program will continue to support the American Cancer Society guidelines, which recommend that women begin annual breast screening via mammography at age 40. Swedish Cancer Institute Breast Program also encourages women to discuss any concerns about breast screening with their primary-care providers.
Links to Related Information, Various Opinions
In a continuing effort to help inform and educate women about this important topic, here are links to related information and various opinions on these new recommendations from various expert sources:
- American Cancer Society (ACS) news release, 'ACS Responds to Changes to USPSTF Mammography Guidelines.'
- Susan G. Komen For The Cure statement, 'Making Sense of New Mammography Recommendations.'
- U.S. Department of Health & Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius statement, 'New Breast Cancer Recommendations.'
- American College of Radiology news release, 'USPSTF Mammography Recommendations Will Result in Countless Unnecessary Breast Cancer Deaths Each Year.'
- American College of Radiology talking points, 'Detailed ACR Statement on Ill Advised and Dangerous USPSTF Mammography Recommendations.'
- Society of Breast Imaging statement, 'Society of Breast Imaging Responds to US Preventive Services Task Force Statement.'
- American Society of Breast Surgeons statement, 'Society Responds to USPSTF Changes in Mammography Guidelines.'
- American Society of Breast Disease statement, 'Mammography Saves Lives: Breast Cancer Specialists Endorse Annual Mammograms for Women Over 40.'
- Editorial posted Nov. 20 on The Seattle Times' Web site titled 'The mammogram debate.'

The continued player exodus is merely the evolution of the professional game.
In five years it won't matter where a player is based. In five years time Super Rugby will probably be a Super 18 or a Super 20 and some of the best Northern Hemisphere players will add to the championship challenge of teams in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.
The game will become global through player migration long before the governing body at the IRB can agree a global season.
Professional clubs in Europe and businesses who own professional clubs in Japan will always be more powerful in terms of cash. It is like the English Premier League in soccer compared with the PSL.
I agree with the view that any national coach will favour a local player over an overseas based player in 50-50 selection calls, but any national coach who is allowed to choose his national player, regardless of where he is based, would be foolish to select an inferior local based player to what is overseas.
There should be no anger about any player who leaves. The player runs the risk that a better local based player emerges when it comes to national selection. But many players leave and become better players overseas. Culturally the experience is good and they also mature as people.
There is also no longer an 'out of sight out of mind' situation. In South Africa most of the Premiership matches are televised live, so too the European Cup matches. And the French Top 14 also gets good television exposure.
The player, through Internet and Blogs, is as much a presence regardless of whether he is playing out of London or out of Cape Town.
This week another healthy number of South African players signed to play in Europe, the United Kingdom, Ireland and Japan. They should not be prejudiced for their decision.
The quicker everyone comes to terms with the demands of professional rugby and the nature of professionalism, the better for the player, the supporter and the rugby manager of the player.
The life span of a top rugby player once was 10 years. Most now don't make it past five years at the top of their game. Allow the player to cash in when he can and also allow for a global view on a game that offers more than any insular indulgence.
Super Rugby would be a better tournament if some of the best French and Northern Hemisphere players were part of the mix. The Foreign influence has added to the quality of the European Cup.
The same would be of a reverse.
The game turned professional in name in 1996 but it is only now starting to now unfold into a professional game.
The best players should always be at the major events like World Cups and the evolution on a national level could be that the only time we see the best Bok team play is at World Cups.
It is at club level (read Super Rugby in that as well) where we have the chance to see the world's best playing every weekend, in a variety of competitions, and in a manner in which the player's nationality is secondary to the club colours he wears.

Had one. The weather was spectacular. Did nothing. Ate out. Barbequed. Took long naps. Started reading The DaVinci Code. Got to the part where the Langdon is with Fache and the sultry cryptologist walks up and hands a message to Langdon from the US Embassy, but (dramatic music)....the message actually goes to the cryptologist's answering machine and the message tells Langdon that he is in danger…...ouuuuu dan dan dannnn (spooky music).
How much you want to bet that sparks are going to fly between Langdon and this 32 year old hottie?

Comments about Support Master Triple Tickler:
I bought this for my husband, mainly just as a gag gift (as he does NOT have any trouble with support). I received it yesterday and we tried it out last night and twice today. Anyways...I have to say this thing did us a both a world of good. It inserets into me without any trouble, and once he he starts pumping, or me riding him...The rings felt terrific sliding in and out. I do not believe I have ever felt this way since my first time 30 years ago. His climax was much MUCH more intense than I have ever felt before. Maybe it was because of my responses to it who knows....it was just great. It's definitely going to be added to collection of things to use everytime.

What is a ductless mini split air conditioner?
A ductless mini split air conditioner is made up of three components, compressor (outdoors), air handler (indoors) and a remote. There is no need for extensive rebuilding or retro-fitting to install the unit. All that is needed is an approximately three-inch hole in a wall or ceiling for the connecting pipes and wires to run through. Ductless mini split air conditioners can be installed nearly anywhere and are especially good for remodeling or additions to your home.

|Landmark Anniversary: 35 Years of ACH Critical Care Transport
We provide state of the art neonatal and pediatric care delivered by our experienced team that consists of pediatric critical care nurses, pediatric respiratory therapists, paramedics and EMTs. We provide inter-facility transport of patients - newborn through 21 - within the state of Florida and far beyond. All team members are NRP (Neonatal Resuscitation Provider), PALS (Pediatric Advanced Life Support), ACLS (Advanced Cardiac Life Support), TNCC (Trauma Nurse Core Course), and ENPC (Emergency Nurse Pediatric Course) certified and many are C-NPT (Certified in Neonatal Pediatric Transport) as well.
We have expanded in many ways over these 35 years, especially in sheer numbers. In 1977, we transported 190 patients, all NICU, since the team only served the newborn population at that time. With the addition of pediatric services and relationships with area helicopter and fixed-wing programs, we have grown to help more than 1,500 patients annually. Amazing! Our team has transported nearly 35,000 children. Approximately 30 percent of those patients are admitted to our NICU, 25 percent to our PICU or CVICU and 25 percent to our Emergency Center. The remaining patients are transported to various subspecialty units.
Our team is available 24/7 and coordinated through the new ACH Patient Transfer Center (PTC). The PTC facilitates outside hospital transfers with only one phone call. When referring facilities utilize our team, we bring All Children's Hospital to the patients instead of waiting until they arrive here. With patient conditions ranging from extreme prematurity to advanced cardiac and airway requirements, we utilize the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) approved algorithm to create a patient-specific care plan ensuring efficient and appropriate continuum of care.
We are trained for advanced procedures such as needle decompression, placement of chest tubes, umbilical lines, advanced airway management and Nitric Oxide administration. We also participate in education and safety updates from the Federal Aviation Association (FAA), which include night-simulated egress and water egress techniques. These training seminars promote critical thinking and life-saving techniques for any eventuality.
With an immediate service area of more than 100 miles, a comfortable kid-friendly ambulance ride is essential. Each is equipped with a flat-screen TV and radio. Child Life Services provides a current selection of DVDs for keeping toddlers to teenagers occupied. As advocates for family-centered care, we accommodate one parent or guardian when appropriate. Parent booklets and directions are also given to family members at bedside. We recognize that for many families, we are the first face of All Children's Hospital. In only minutes, we must establish a trusting relationship with both family and patient. This interaction sets the tone for their entire stay.
At 30 feet long and 11 tons, our three ambulances are larger than most on the road. Each is spacious enough for transportation of two patients simultaneously and 10 team members. Our state-of-the-art vehicles are specifically designed to reduce noise and vibration for a safe, made specifically for children transport environment. Each ambulance uses multiple levels of communication, including radio, Wi-Fi, cellular and satellite systems.
When typical transport distances are exceeded, we use fixed-wing aircraft. We have relationships with many licensed vendors whose aircrafts are configured for medical management of the most critical patients. Utilizing aircrafts specifically designed for our transports, we are able to quickly take advanced resources to domestic and international facilities.
Our team is passionate to share their experience and knowledge with others. Many staff members are instructors in the S.T.A.B.L.E. program (Sugar & Safe Care, Temperature, Airway, Blood Pressure, Lab Work, Emotional Support), NRP, and PALS. We provide classes for referring facilities at their location as well as in house at ACH. We also participate in dozens of community events each year.
