Acing Answers for CPR certification Exam Questions
Getting a CPR certification can increase employment potentials of an individual. This does not only apply to those who want to build a career in the medical profession, but also to those who want to be employed in the executive arena. Most employers nowadays, whether or not they come from medical facilities, give priority to those with CPR certifications. Before one can be certified, however, he or she needs to complete CPR tests. This is the reason why it is important to know the nature of CPR certification test questions to ensure a passing grade.
Note that there are two kinds of test which serve as a pre-requisite for CPR certification – a written and hands-on test. Both measures the skills and knowledge of an individual in CPR and other lifesaving techniques. The written exam include CPR certification test questions that cover basic knowledge: how long does it take for brain damage to occur after cardiac arrest, ABCs of CPR, proper steps in performing CPR for infants, etc. It is then important for the examinees to review the lessons tackled in the classroom training before the written exam. They usually come in multiple choices, but the answers can be tricky.
It is also a must for examinees to know the different confusing data that may be included in the multiple choices for CPR certification test questions. It is not enough to know the right answers. One should also be wary of the incorrect answers, which appears to be the right choice. Common mistakes of exam takers include questions about the safety of exhaling carbon dioxide into the lungs of a cardiac arrest victim, the proper timing and rhythm for CPR, and the stimulation of heart pumps. The difference of CPR techniques in varying emergencies (drowning vs. Choking vs. Cardiac arrest) may also be confusing for some students.
The key is to read the CPR certification test questions carefully and understand what it really asks for. It would also help if the examinees have formulated an answer even before reading through the choices to avoid confusion. Most examinations also include a lot of items about CPR vocabulary. It is then important for one to check the textbooks of American Red Cross with the lists of jargons before going through the exam.

In many ways I would like this to be the last post I make about the sad loss of All Saints Anglican Church in Granville Centre. No matter how much I would like this to be the case, I just don't think that it is for a couple of reasons. My first reason is that I have a nagging feeling that someone will create a triumphal press release in the summer of 2010 touting what a wonderful project that this was. From the perspective of the recipients of the church in Louisiana this would probably be correct. They are inheriting a beautiful structure. The ironies that this church was built using government funds designed to protect Nova Scotia from Americans during the War of 1812 by an Anglican Bishop with a distaste for the New Lights can probably be overlooked. The fact that this is a sad loss to Nova Scotia which could not be prevented under current Canadian legislation should also be overlooked.
The second reason that this is probably not my last post on this topic is that I feel somewhat obliged to try to make something positive out of this sad situation. I have already begun discussions about hosting a symposium in Annapolis Royal on the importance of preserving our historic religious architecture. One of the potential speakers told me that he would speak, bake cookies or do whatever was needed. This sort of feedback made me quite happy. Hopefully this will be a forum to start a dialogue between religious groups and those who are interested in preserving heritage.
This current collection of photographs was taken to document the site of All Saints Church as it appears as of the middle of December. The clear exception is the top image which was included to show what the property looked like at the start of demolition. Just over a week ago I had heard that a crew was at work burning some of the remains of the church. I figured that I should probably get a few images to document this part of the process. I must admit that I was a bit surprised that the burning of the remains would take place right on the spot where the church once stood. I guess that this is just one more surprise in a strange process.
The other photograph of note in this collection shows the location in the foundation where a slate cornerstone reading 1814 once rested. I suppose that this stone will accompany the remainder of the building to Louisiana.
All for now,

The Connecticut Department of Education's, Academic Achievement Report , for 2010-2011, has been published. The report can be generated by school district, then individual school. It is sectioned into student subgroups and includes a line item for students with disabilities (special education). The scores determine if the students have met adequate yearly progress. They are based on, the No Child Left Behind (NCLB), CMT and/or CAPT testing in three critical areas: math, reading, and writing. In the report, area schools in Connecticut are listed as failing to make adequate yearly progress. State educators said testing requirements went up this year and is partially the reason for the increase of citations.
Some schools failing to make the grade, for students wtih disabilities, include Greenwich High School, Stamford High School, Riverfield Elementary (Fairfield), Danbury High school, Parker Farms school (Wallingford), John F. Kennedy Middle School (Enfield), and many more. Other schools were saved through "safe harbor", a category that protects the school from being cited due to improvements in overall proficiency from the previous year.
What can you do if your child's school made the list?
Nancy Prescott, Executive Director of the Connecticut Parent Advocacy Center, states "the standardized assessment, like CMTs, is just one measurement of how your child is doing. Testing required by NCLB can be a good thing because it is drawing attention to the fact that students with disabilities can and are learning much more than previously expected. The bar is being raised." Prescott noted that the scores have been an eye opener to parents who thought their child should have done better. To monitor your child's progress, Prescott recommends requesting regular progress reports from the school. In Connecticut, the use of Scientific Research-Based Intervention(SRBI) is a way many schools are beginning to collect data and use it to match instruction according to each child's learning needs. While not legally required to provide this on-going data, parents can and should request this information so that they know how their child is doing, long before the release of CMT reports.
For more information, visit the Connecticut Department of Education or begin a dialogue with the educators at your local school.

"When you are sitting in that race car, you've only got a couple of pedals and a steering wheel that mean anything," Schrader adds, boiling everything down to the simplest terms. "It's not rocket science. Get down the straightaway as fast as you can, turn the car around, and then do the same thing coming back the other side." In other words, if your goal is to race and race well in NASCAR's Nextel Cup ranks, get in a car that's as close to the real thing as you can get and go racing.
It is true that racing on a dirt surface is quite different from racing on asphalt. Not only that, but also the technology of the race cars is in many ways quite different. Dirt cars are designed to roll over on the right-rear wheel to maximize forward bite, while the key to a fast setup in an asphalt car is to balance the downforce and make all four tires work equally through the turns. Dirt cars can also use more sophisticated rear suspensions (such as four-links and Z-links with rotating birdcages and multiple spring attachment points that are rarely allowed by the rules in asphalt racing), but the basic physics of it all really doesn't change much. The key to speed is to maximize traction and power and then push the car to that narrow margin between too slow and out-of-control, where the fast laps lie.
The difficulties in racing on dirt are also where the advantages are hidden when it comes to developing young racers. Dirt as a racing surface is unstable, constantly changing. This is especially true when cars are racing on it, squeezing out the water and putting down layers of rubber. The fast line at the start of the heat race can be completely different by the end and different yet again by the start of the feature. Also, while the clay mixture used in dirt tracks can provide incredible traction when the conditions are perfect, there are also many times when there is far more power than available grip. The best dirt drivers not only understand these concepts, they also expect a track to change and they learn how to predict what's going to happen in order to take advantage of the circumstance-and the competition.
According to Andy Hillenburg, the owner of Fast Track High Performance Driving School, the ability to read a dirt track may not help you much in NASCAR's Nextel Cup Series, but the adaptability that dirt requires will. Hillenburg has raced everything from Nextel Cup, to Sprint Cars, to Indy Cars. As the lead instructor of one of the top stock car racing schools, Hillenburg has helped numerous young racers start successful careers, and they've come from all forms of racing backgrounds.
"Having dirt experience is great for two main reasons," he says. "What you learn on dirt that will assist you if you become a racer in the so-called big time comes from the constantly changing track conditions. Yeah, the track changes on pavement, too, but it doesn't change as extensively or as quickly as it does on dirt. And that teaches a driver to always keep looking for a better way around the track, to find that better line quickly. Then, when he moves to asphalt he won't spend 50 laps to figure out, 'Oh, that's where I should have been.'
"Number two, it teaches you really good car control. How to drive a loose car. How to handle a four-wheel drift. How to apply the gas to get as much acceleration as possible without spinning the tires. And you know a dirt car can push, too. Driving in imperfect conditions will give you a great feel for the car and how to control it. Those are the two big things you need to experience and are benefits from having a season of dirt racing under your belt. You can learn the same things you do on pavement as far as getting good restarts, setting up other cars, and learning to pass guys, but those two things you can learn on dirt are invaluable toward getting all the way to the top."
Interestingly, Nextel Cup team owner Bill Davis-the man who gave Jeff Gordon his start in the Busch Series-has also noticed the same thing about drivers who have experience racing on dirt. "I don't know if dirt is definitely more helpful, but I do think that dirt teaches a racer a ton of car control," he says. "Some of these cars have a lot of horsepower, a lot more than they can always put to the ground. You have to work hard behind the wheel. You have to really be in tune with your car to drive a dirt car fast. And I think that plays over when that driver makes the switch to racing on asphalt."

Frankly, i have medical conditions which the stress of such an event means I should be checked in an ER; even someone with perfect health, I can't imagine not going to a hospital for bad symptoms of anxiety, disorientation, feeling faint etc after such an event - maybe being checked for wounds I and the police are unaware of. I'm not stripped naked and they are not doctors. I would say this is a necessity especially if the assailant fired any shots or came into close contact to you with a knife. Shock can hide serious injury. Someone I know was shot twice with a .22, took him a few minutes to even realize it, and only because he felt a liquid on his abdominal area: when he looked it was blood all over the place. If he happened not to have felt that, he could have bled out. He almost did anyway before he finally called 911 and first responders arrived. By then they found him unconscious.
TMI!... There is no reason to tell the police about any medical, or emotional issues in your background. Of course seek medical attention if you really need it. But sharing this kind of information could backfire if you have the bad luck of your investigation being assigned to a lazy, or politically oppoased investigator, or states attorney.
This mostly depends on the jurisdiction. And there are serious consiquences when an Officer refuses to speak. Sometimes there may be a contractual agreement with the PBA, FOP, or other union and the employer department. No contractual agreement can trump a criminal law, or criminal procedural law, coronors jury, or grand jury.
As I have been on boths sides of investigating a police shooting. I never refused to make a simple statement. And each time My PBA attorney strongly suggested I make such a statement. That whole 24 hr to make a statement is used when there may be a problem with the shooting, giving the Officer or department some time. As a non police officer everyone has the same right to refuse to make a statement for 24 hours, 48 hours...or as long as you like.
One thing I haven't seen mentioned is the reason for pointing out the evidence, witnesses, etc. From what I recall reading, the point is that when the police arrive, doing these things gives them a direction and starting point for the investigation, one that is hopefully going in the direction you want. The idea is that it is better to do this than to take the chance that they will start off in a bad direction and miss vital evidence. While you can't control the investigation, you can try to get it started in a positive way. Then shut up.
Also remember, while your attacker may be a piece of dirt, the police are likely to see them having the same rights as you, which you just deprived them of.
Take some thing like an accident. I laying out on the road banged up good. EMT fire department over me, doing what they can.
LEO. First question not have you but how much you been drinking,How fast were you going, where were you going. LEO was not a bit concerned about much more than what he could pin on me. I was not drinking I don't ever, I was on my way home from work what does that madder.
In his credit he did secure my weapon and turn it over to my wife.
But in the end he is a new age LEO. They are not servants or protectors of the public in any way.
Once again say nothing you are now the bad guy no madder why you had to do it.
I won't say a thing. I'll tell them that I will answer all of their questions the next day with my attorney present and after I've spoken to him first.
83 yr. old woman shot dead by poilce - YouTube ... a video report

ORANGE COUNTY (LALATE EXCLUSIVE) – Are Vicki and Brooks still together 2013, and is Vicki Gunvalson still dating Brooks? Vicki Gunvalson and Brooks Ayers broke up after the reunion 2012 telecast, and then got back together. When RHOC filming for the current season started in summer last year, the other housewives were unsure if Vicki and Brooks were still together, broke up, back together, or done for good. In fact, Vicki and Brooks weren't so sure about it each other. But LALATE can exclusively report what was going on with Vicki and Brooks then, compared to their situation now.
RHOC debuted last Monday to disappointing ratings numbers. Apparently, Bravo has yet to remember what consistently words with Housewives shows: breakups, secrets, and dating stories. Last season on Real Housewives of Miami, Karent Sierra's relationship with Rodolfo delivered really the only major viral story of the season. This season on Atlanta, Kenya Moore's boyfriend drove much the entire season's major storyline.
And so when we return to RHOC this week, Bravo seems to discount the impact Vicki and Brooks had on the ratings. No matter how much viewers disliked Brooks, the questionable relationship between him and Vicki was far more talked about than anything else last season.

The current season began filming in summer 2012, Tamra Barney recently told LALATE exclusively. In July and September, both Vicki and Brooks battled breakup reports. Yet there were very much together at the time, LALATE can report. Briana last season said "You want me to go on the internet about all this stuff about Brooks? DUIs, not taking care of his kids, he's got four kids by three different women."
Briana asserted that she doesn't like Brooks. "I am concerned that things are moving too fast, too early. I was single for three years, and Ryan was always in my life… you have been married most of your life since you are 19." Briana adds "You have never been alone to discover what you want. I have a feeling you are lonely and are only latching on the other person you are meeting."
Vicki consistently doesn't like the comparison of Brooks to Ryan. "You can't compare Ryan with Brooks…. How did this get moved around to me? This is how to defend yourself, you attack yourself. You are still legally married."

LALATE can report that tonight's episode airing was taped around September 2012. At the time, Vicki and Brooks were together but were battling false breakup report. Vicki told news then. "I don't know what everyone is talking about but I didn't dump Brooks. We are both taking time for ourselves right now." Vicki assured news that the couple are still together. But she wouldn't indicate further to fans what "taking time for us" exactly meant.
Tamra Barney on social media said much the same comment she said this week on the show. "'If a relationship has to be a secret, then you shouldn't be in it.' Just saying." So while Viki and Brooks are still together when tonight's episode was taped in summer 2012, the two have since broke up for good.

Emerging Issues in Financial Development : Lessons from Latin America
ISBN13:by Didier, Tatiana; Schmukler, Sergio
World Bank
Questions About This Book?
What version or edition is this?
This is the edition with a publication date of 12/16/2013.
What is included with this book?
- The New copy of this book will include any supplemental materials advertised. Please check the title of the book to determine if it should include any CDs, lab manuals, study guides, etc.
Since the last wave of financial crises in the late-1990s and early 2000s, the financial systems of Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) have continued to gain in soundness, depth, and diversity. For all the gains, however, many challenges remain. In many respects, LAC's financial services industry is underdeveloped by international comparisons, notably, bank credit to the private sector lags and domestic equity markets remain liquidity. Furthermore, the provision of long-term finance-whether to households, firms, or infrastructure-is probably well below what would be desired.This book aims to meet the dual challenge of stock-taking and reassessment of the state of financial development in LAC, so as to set on firmer grounds the financial development agenda going forward. The chapters offer a comprehensive analysis of the status, prospects, and challenges of sustainable financial development in the region. Rather than going in detail into sector-specific issues, the book focuses on the main architectural issues, overall perspectives, and inter-connections. Its value added thus hinges on its holistic view of the development process, its broad coverage of the financial services industry beyond just banking, its emphasis on comparisons and benchmarking, its systemic perspective, and its explicit effort to incorporate the lessons from the recent global financial crisis.

Regatta Cruise Review by REDietrich: Over the Top
Overall Member Rating
Over the Top
Destination: Alaska
Embarkation: Seattle
There are not enough superlatives to describe our 10-day cruise on Oceania Regatta to Alaska. The quality of service would have made a five star hotel anywhere in the world envious. This was a cruise for foodies as every meal onboard was a gourmet experience. For 675 passengers there were 66 chefs, and the only thing that was not prepared fresh daily were the milk, eggs, and butter. The night life was excellent as there was something for all ages and interests. The attention to detail by the cruise director, Ray Carr, was superb.
The ship recently underwent a major refurbishing and it was spotless. After a couple of tender excursions, the crew were out polishing the brass propellers to make them shine. At the Hubbard Glacier, the captain parallel parked the ship to ensure everyone had a spectacular view. The atmosphere was that of a happy family, and the staff and crew were there to ensure your vacation was the epitome of pleasure and enjoyment.
If you are More contemplating a cruise, look nowhere beyond Oceania anywhere in the world. I have been onboard other ships from other ocean lines, and they do not compare to the quality of Oceania. Less

College Hockey:Oswego Closes Out Romney In Style
OSWEGO, N.Y. — The Oswego State Lakers provided a grand farewell to the Golden Romney Field House with a 9-3 blowout over Potsdam. Everything seemed to work to perfection for Oswego, which exploded for five goals in the second period, went three for eight on the power play, and scored two shorthanded goals.
There were festivities all day for the final regular-season game at the Romney. Tours of the new Campus Center were provided at midday. Afterwards, the alumni hockey game took place. Then, both schools hosted alumni get-togethers at local pubs.
Finally, it was time for the game, and Oswego came out wearing throwback jerseys commemorating the occasion. All the jerseys will be auctioned off after the game.
After the emotionally and physically draining victory over Plattsburgh the night before, many wondered if the Lakers would come out flat.
"It was tough," Oswego coach Ed Gosek said. "Emotionally we were spent, and we could see it, so we had to be creative to come up with ways to motivate them. I was pleased with our effort. Our unselfishness. Our discipline was a lot better; we didn't take a lot of foolish penalties. I know they know how much it meant for the alumni who were back. They certainly didn't want to disappoint the guys."
"We certainly ran into a brick wall," Potsdam coach Glenn Thomaris said. "They had all the incentive in the world to put on a good show, and they certainly did."
The show got off to a quick start four-and-a-half minutes in when Ryan Koresky's shot from the middle of the blueline sailed high through a screen beating Vince Cuccaro on the power play.
Potsdam tied it up two minutes later on their own power play. Ryan McCarthy received a pass from the back of the net from T.J. Sakaluk, and quickly one-timed it past Ryan Scott.
However, that would be it for Potsdam as Oswego took over the game from there.
Another power-play goal, just 21 seconds after Potsdam tied it up, gave Oswego the lead back. Good puck control and quick passing enabled Ryan Ellis to be left alone at the right faceoff circle, giving him the perfect opportunity to beat Cuccaro.
"Something we didn't want to do was get into the penalty box right away whether they scored a goal or not, it didn't matter," Thomaris said. "They kept the puck in our end the whole first ten minutes of the period because of our penalties and our sloppy play. That gave them all kinds of momentum to play a good solid game and put us back on our heels. We paid a heavy price."
The price got worse past the halfway point of the first period when a poor line change gave Oswego a two-on-one. A nifty back pass and a great flip over the goaltender by Trevor Gilligan, and Oswego had a 3-1 lead after one.
In the first period, Oswego outshot Potsdam, 22-10. It got worse in the second when Oswego had an 18-4 shots advantage and put on a scoring clinic.
"We've been working hard to score goals, so it was nice to have some come naturally," Gosek said. "I thought we had all four lines going tonight. I thought Darrell Levy created a lot of excitement. His speed created a lot of opportunities. And Rick Varone, another guy trying to earn a spot consistently in the lineup, and he certainly did that this weekend. Once we got rolling, I was pleased with all the lines creating offense."
Francois Gagnon got the roll started with a shot from the right point that again went high and through a crowd. Varone made it 5-1 with a breakaway where he simply outskated the last defender. When he got to the goal going full steam, he cut from his right to the left, across the crease, and with Cuccaro going down, backhanded it over the sprawled goaltender.
After Gebara tried to make it close for Potsdam with a close range shot that somehow found its way in, Oswego put the nail in the coffin with a shorthanded breakaway goal.
It was Varone again who stole the puck at his own blueline and just took off. He made the identical move on Cuccaro, who made the identical reaction, which meant another easy goal for Varone.
At this point, Potsdam replaced Cuccaro with Rob Barnhardt, but it didn't make much of a difference. Brendan McLaughlin scored a power-play goal when Barnhardt didn't know where the puck was, and it deflected off his leg pads into the net.
Ryan Ellis closed out the scoring in the second period when he was left untouched after a faceoff and simply skated it to the net for an open shot.
The teams traded goals in the last few minutes of the game when C.J. Thompson was called for a five-minute major and game misconduct for hitting from behind. Potsdam pulled the goalie for a six-on-four advantage. It took a while, but Corey McAllister finally gave the Bears the power-play goal.
However, with Barnhardt back in net, Oswego got it back, scoring a shorthander when Ryan Woodward stole the puck in front and put it over the outstretched leg of Barnhardt.
Scott made 22 saves and played a strong game.
"That's the best he's played back-to-back games in a while," Gosek said. In fact, it was the first conference four-point weekend for Oswego since November.
As the final minute wound down, the crowd chanted, "Thank you, Romney!"
Oswego has a virtual lock on first place extending their league record to 9-2-1 while opening up a three point lead over Geneseo, who they play next on Friday night.
Potsdam fell back into sixth place, dropping to 6-5-1, trailing Buffalo State and Plattsburgh by a point.

"We have scheduled the run in the morning to beat the heat and encourage all participants to come out to the beach that afternoon to support our budding athletes and learn more about what our National Federations have planned this year."

Box Score
RU-NIU Box Score
NIU CSSU Box Score
San Luis Obispo, Calif. –The Northern Illinois University softball team suffered a pair of losses on the second day of the Mustang Classic Saturday at Bob Jenssen Field.
The Huskies (6-11) dropped an 8-0 decision to Rutgers in the first game of the day before falling to Sacramento State, 13-5, in Game Two. Northern Illinois committed nine errors Saturday.
The Scarlet Knights scored eight runs on six hits and capitalized on five Huskie errors, while holding the NIU offense to three hits in the game. Rutgers opened the scoring with a pair of runs in the top of the second.
A run in the third and fourth innings pushed Rutgers advantage to 4-0. The big blow came in the sixth inning when the Scarlet Knights put up a four spot in the sixth, scoring the four runs on two hits and two Huskie errors.
Northern Illinois' bats took a little while to wake up in Game Two of the day. Trailing 7-0 after three innings following a seven-run Sacramento State third, the Huskie offense erupted with a four-run fourth inning to cut the deficit to three.
The Huskies opened the inning with five straight hits. Bryanna Phelan (Coal City, Ill./Coal City) opened the inning with a lead-off single and scored on an Amanda Sheppard (Oak Forest, Ill./Oak Forest) double down the left file line. Nicole Gremillion (Missouri City, Texas/Elkins) also double down the left field line to drive in Jillian Mattor (Redondo Beach, Calif./Redondo Beach), who pinch ran for Sheppard.
A Jennifer Barnett (Indianapolis, Ind./Roncali) single scored Gremillion from second and Shelby Miller's (Ottawa, Kan./Ottawa) triple to left center scored Barnett and capped the scoring for the Huskies in the inning.
However, the Hornets responded with two runs in the bottom of the fourth and bottom of the fifth to take an 11-5 lead. Northern Illinois scored a run in the top of the fifth on a Barnett groundout.
"We showed a lot of fight in the second game," said NIU head coach Christina Sutcliffe. "We're continuing to get better and that's what matters right now."
Barnett led the way for the NIU offense against Sacramento State, going 1-for-3 with two RBIs, while Phelan went 2-for-4 with two runs scored in the leadoff spot.
After committing five errors in the first game, the defense struggled to defend the ball in the nightcap, tallying four errors. Of the 13 runs scored, nine were earned.
The Huskies close out play in the Mustang Classic tomorrow against host Cal Poly. First pitch is set for 1 p.m. Central Time. Fans can follow all the action live at Mustang Classic Central.

May 10, 2001
TEMPE, Ariz. -- Arizona State Sun Devil baseball players Casey Myers, Jon Switzer and Jeff Phelps were named to the 2001 Verizon Academic All-District VIII Baseball Team when it was announced Thursday.
The trio of Sun Devils dominate the 11-player team, comprised of college baseball players who have shined in the classroom as well as on the field during 2001 and throughout their college careers. The all-district first team selections advance to the national ballot, which will release a University Division Academic All-America team on June 5.
For Myers it was his third straight selection to the all-district team. A standout student who carries a 3.98 GPA in the classroom in Mathematics/Economics, Myers was the 2000 Academic All-American of the Year. The senior All-American catcher is currently leading the Devils and second in the Pac-10 in hitting with a .417 batting average, 62 RBI and six home runs. He is ranked 24th in the nation with his .417 batting average and 15th with 1.29 RBI per game. He recently became only the third Sun Devil in history to reach 300 career hits. With 62 RBI during his senior season, Myers is now only 15 short of the ASU and Pac-10 career record of 283.
Phelps is a two-time selection to the Verizon All-District VIII team with a 3.40 GPA in Communications. He was the designated hitter on the 2001 team with a .298 batting average and one home runs for the Sun Devils in 2001. A career .333 hitter in his four years in Tempe, Phelps is currently ninth in school history with 52 doubles.
Switzer, a preseason All-American pitcher, earned his first academic honor with a stellar 3.44 GPA with a major in marketing. Switzer, who played for Team USA last summer, is 4-4 in 2001 with a 3.86 ERA. He is ranked second in the Pac-10 with 105 strikeouts and 18th in the NCAA with an average of 11.30 strikeouts per nine innings.
The ASU baseball program has been a model of academic and athletic success over the past seven years during the Pat Murphy era. Since 1999 ASU has had four players earn Academic All-America status. On the field, ASU is part of an elite class, being one of only seven schools to finish in the top 12 in the national polls in three of the past four years. The Sun Devils have been a mainstay in the top 20 for the past 28 consecutive weeks. ASU is 31-16-1 in 2001 and at 9-9 in Pac-10 play is a legitimate contender to make its third NCAA regional in the past four years.

I want to securely connect to linux through ssh. I heard that to setup a VPN is more secure.
But I don't know how to setup VPN-connect-only in Linux.
I want to restrict directly connection except through VPN.
closed as unclear what you're asking by Magellan, Ward, mdpc, Michael Hampton♦ Sep 27 '13 at 23:45
Please clarify your specific problem or add additional details to highlight exactly what you need. As it's currently written, it's hard to tell exactly what you're asking. See the How to Ask page for help clarifying this question.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
VPN stands for Virtual Private Network. SSH stands for Secure Shell.
VPN simply provides a more secure (and perhaps more convenient) means of accessing your servers across insecure or public networks using other protocols.
Think of it this way.
The VPN is like a Turducken. The SSH protocol is still necessary to actually get to your server, and is like the birds on the inside. Most people can't SEE inside the turkey to know what is in there, but you know what it is and have the keys (knife) to open up the VPN packets (outer turkey layer) so that you can get at the inner bird.
In short, You cannot connect to your server ONLY through VPN without using some other protocol to handle logins, such as SSH. They are not mutually-exclusive.
As far as I know ssh is undoubtedly secured. However if you want to configure VPN on Debian Linux, You can follow this link.

(AP Photo/Sebastian Scheiner, Pool) the associated press Feb. 12, 2014; 10:35 a.m. Comments WASHINGTON (AP) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu plans to visit President Barack Obama next month amid tension between the allies on diplomatic matters. The White House announced the March 3 visit on Wednesday and said the two leaders would discuss Mideast peace efforts, Iran's nuclear program and other regional issues. Netanyahu has also been an outspoken critic of the U.S.-led efforts to curb Iran's nuclear program. Meanwhile, Secretary of State John Kerry is attempting to broker a Mideast peace deal that would establish an independent Palestinian state alongside Israel. Some Israeli ministers have criticized Kerry's efforts. The White House said in a statement that Netanyahu's visit "is a demonstration of the deep and enduring bonds between the United States and Israel and our close consultations on a range of security issues."

Where Else But ODTUG?....
By oracletechnet on Jun 22, 2009
Would you bump into Steven Feuerstein while he's in the middle of a jog?
Would you see people actually *wearing* their Oracle ACE Director red vests (aka "Stanleys"), not just abusing them?
Are people happy to sit through eight straight hours of technical sessions from Tom Kyte, should there be somewhere to stand in the room?
Nowhere else, my friends, except ODTUG Kaleidoscope, where I happen to be this week (in Monterey, Calif.)
The conference began memorably last evening, with a keynote from Oracle Fusion Apps development VP Steve Miranda that included a live demo of Fusion HR and CRM apps. (For my notes, see the #odtug hashtag in my Twitterstream.) Although the keynote could have been better tuned for the audience - Fusion apps are of course the "nirvana" case study for ADF developers - seeing the UI in action was indeed something to behold.
Today, I'm looking forward to sessions from Tom Kyte, David Peake, newly minted Oracle ACE Director Chris Bucchere, and Shay Shmeltzer.
And if you don't believe the Stanley bit, see the video below, courtesy of Eddie Awad:

According to ComicBookMovie on Jan. 19, with the anticipated release of Zack Snyder's "Batman vs. Superman" film, Mark Waid, currently the writer of Marvel's "Daredevil" and "Indestructible Hulk" comic books, explains the dynamic involving the Batman and Superman characters.
Waid was asked about the differences between the two and as far as their origins are concerned, they had come to heroism and their identities by somewhat different methods. Batman came into existence through the loss of his parents which entailed a tragic situation in his early life and vowed to never let that happen to anyone else from then on. Superman intends to simply have an overall respect for human life and wasn't driven into the preservation of life by the same motivations as Batman.
Waid contends that Superman wears no mask typically because he's built up public trust and is ability to be pretty much impervious allows him to casually and mild-mannerly resolve threats in a non-threatening fashion while the Dark Knight believes in using fear and intimidation to subdue his foes.
They both do share the desire to seek justice and fairness and that's the main thing in which they have in common.
The both can be analogous to that of the film "Rocky" where Paulie couldn't figure out what he saw in Adrian. Rocky explained that he has an attraction for "gaps". Basically, he contends that they fill each other's gaps and figures that how works. With Batman and Superman, one seeks justice by day while the other by night. Also, Batman can think like a criminal and thus can resolve criminal activities easily while Superman in no shape or form can have such a mindset.
They compliment each other in those regards.
"Batman vs. Superman" opens in theaters May 6, 2016.

Los Angeles, Calif. - Senior goalkeeper Brian Rowe and junior forward Chandler Hoffman were named to the NSCAA/Continental Tire Men's NCAA Division I All-America Team today. Rowe was named to the second-team while Hoffman earned third-team acclaim.
Hoffman, a MAC Hermann Trophy semifinalist, leads the Pac-12 in both goals (18) and points (40) and was a first-team All-Pac-12 selection this season. His 18 goals are the most by a Bruin player since Joe-Max Moore had 18 back in 1991 and his 40 points are the most by a UCLA player since Seth George had 42 in 1997. He is also tied for fourth nationally in goals and is sixth in points scored. Hoffman tied UCLA records this season for consecutive games with a goal and multiple goal games, scoring in five straight games and tallying four multiple goal games.
Brian Rowe has had an outstanding year for the Bruins, posting a single-season best 12 shutouts. Rowe also has a 0.70 GAA on the season and recorded a Pac-12 best 0.20 GAA in conference play, which helped him earn first-team All-Pac-12 honors. His 12 shutouts are the most by a Bruin goalie since Eric Reed had 12 back in 2005.
Brian Rowe and Hoffman were also both honored as first-team selections on the NSCAA All-Far West Team. Andy Rose, Kelyn Rowe and Matt Wiet were also named to the All-Far West Team. Rose and Kelyn Rowe were named to the second-team while Wiet was a third-team selection.
Like Brian Rowe and Hoffman, Rose was a first-team All-Pac-12 selection after starting all 23 games for the Bruins this season. The team captain has recorded two goals and three assists on the season and has been the anchor in the midfield all year.
This is the second consecutive year that Kelyn Rowe and Matt Wiet have earned All-Far West Region honors after Rowe was named to the first team last year and Wiet was named to the third-team in 2010.
Kelyn Rowe was named the 2011 Pac-12 Player of the Year and leads the Pac-12 with 10 assists on the season. His 10 assists also put him in a tie for seventh nationally. Wiet has started all 23 games for UCLA this season and has played a key role in defense for the Bruins all year. Along with Brian Rowe and the rest of the back line, Wiet has been instrumental in shutting out the last eight UCLA opponents, which ties a school record that dates back to 1977.
UCLA now has 44 NSCAA All-America selections and 150 All-Far West selections in program history.

In response to the recent outage "The people at Skype" have sent out an email in hopes of smoothing things over with their paying customers. They have offered all the Skype Pro, Skype Unlimited, SkypeIn and Skype Voicemail customers an additional week free on their current subscription.
You may or may not know but last week Skype wasn't available for a couple of days. There were a number of reasons for this and I am delighted to say that the problem is now well and truly sorted and everything is back to normal. For those of you who tried to use Skype during that time but couldn't, we're very sorry. For those of you who didn't try to use Skype – well thankfully you were not affected but we want to reassure everyone that Skype is now working happily and the problem is fixed.
We know we have many faithful users out there who give us feedback (good and bad) on what we're doing as a company. The Skype community makes us what we are. Without you, our users, we simply wouldn't exist. We've helped people stay in touch with their friends and family over the past four years without any massive hitch and we want it to stay that way.
When the unexpected happens, it's important to remember the people who stuck behind us and whose loyalty humbled us. I want to thank everyone for their support, patience and being part of the Skype community. And for those of you who missed out on using Skype last week – I want to especially thank you as well.
As a goodwill gesture to all you faithful Skype Pro, Skype Unlimited, SkypeIn or Skype Voicemail customers, we're adding an additional seven days to your current subscription, free of charge. And even if you didn't miss out on using Skype last week – you can still have a week free on Skype, on the house!
So please enjoy it, call your loved ones, friends, family and colleagues and thanks again.
Talk soon,
The people at Skype
I think the Skype team has been very upfront with posting updates and by offering the free week of service, but I have seen a few complaints about the gesture also. I am a very light Skype user and may not have even noticed the outage had it not been so newsworthy, based on that I think a week is more than fair. I can understand that for heavy Skype users a week could almost feel like an insult, for some their business relies on Skype.

College Hockey:North Dakota legislature passes Fighting Sioux nickname bill
It appears North Dakota will be keeping its Fighting Sioux nickname after a vote last Friday in the state Senate.
The Senate voted to approve legislation ordering UND to retain its controversial Fighting Sioux nickname and Indian-head logo. The vote was 28-15 with four senators absent and not voting and came after a massive e-mail lobbying campaign that senators said heavily favored approval.
The bill, passed earlier by the House on a 65-28 vote, goes now to Gov. Jack Dalrymple, who said he will sign it, according to the Grand Forks Herald.
"The ball is now in the court of the NCAA, and that's what the people want: Take action or not take action," Dalrymple said in a telephone interview with the paper following the vote.
Erich Longie, a Spirit Lake Sioux tribe member who has fought against the nickname and logo, said he was "very disappointed" in the Senate vote.
"I had hoped the Senate would put a stop to this racist practice, but instead they have decided to legalize this racism," he said to the Herald. "No wonder some of my colleagues elsewhere are calling North Dakota 'the Mississippi of the north.'"
In addition to writing the Fighting Sioux nickname into state law, the passing of the bill directs Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem to consider filing a lawsuit against the NCAA if the athletics association threatens sanctions against UND, the paper added.
Stenehjem sued the NCAA on behalf of the State Board of Higher Education when the association said UND would lose the right to host post-season championships or participate in post-season play wearing Fighting Sioux insignia if it did not comply with an NCAA rule banning Indian-themed nicknames, logos and mascots.
In a 2007 settlement agreement, the NCAA gave UND and the higher education board three years to win authorization from the Standing Rock and Spirit Lake Sioux tribes to continue using the name. Spirit Lake voters gave their consent, but Standing Rock did not.

- Aircorps41
I'm a UND grad and from Devils Lake, ND. When I'm back home the Spirit Lake Native Americans wear their Fighting Sioux colors with pride! And I'm sure that the Standing Rock Native Americans are the same. No matter if the name gets changed or not, you will always hear at the end of the national anthem, "And The Home Of The SIOUX"!!!!!!!!! GO SIOUIX!!!!!
Yeah, can you imagine the hubbub if UND's team was renamed either "The Norsemen" and had the logo changed to a blonde in honor of the overwhelming scandinavian population in the area, or even better "THe Cav" in honor of the 7th Cavalry which made so much history in the state?
In six months the protesting would be reveresed. Instead of saying we are now belittling a racial group as they are now, these same guys would say we were honoring a genocidal force and demand the name be changed back.
They just seek their fifteen minutes of fame through consternation…
- NoDak guy that gets it
And I always shout "Give it back, then!"
The Sioux should drop their name right AFTER Notre Dame is forced to drop the Fighting Irish nickname. Everyone knows its demeaning to Irish men and women everywhere!
I agree. North Dakota should change its nickname at the same time the following do:
U-Mass Minutemen.
Army Black knights.
Robert Morris Colonials.
Notre Dame fighting Irish
Rensselaer Engineers.
Colgate Raiders
St Laurance Saints
Union Dutchmen
Clarkson Golden Kiights.
Merrimack warriors
Denver Pioneers
Castleton Spartans
Norwich Cadets
St Michaels – Knights
Curry Colonels
Hobart Statesmen
Utica Pioneers
Neumann Knights
Massachussetts Dartmouth Corsairs.
Salem State Vikings
Worcester state Lancers.
Lake Forest Foresters.
Milwaukee School of Engineering Raiders
Lawrence Vikings
St. Norbert Green Knights
Hamline Pipers
St. Scholastica Saints
After all, they are all equally demeaning groups of people, right?
- BCnat.champsX3
Add Boston University Terriers as well. Animals shouldn't have to be connected to that institution!
- Furgal
Merrimack College Warriors changed their mascot from an Indian warrior to a Roman warrior. Lame…..
- NoDak guy that gets it
OMG, do you not get it that the Siuox were the indiginous people, defeated quite ingloriously, and now the majority thinks they are honoring them by making a sporting team of their culture? The equivilent, as odd as this sounds, would be if we lost California to Viet Nam in the war, then they established an all-Vietnamese team, playing a traditionally Vietnamese sport, in LA called the LA Americans, logo being some white guy. While they killed and slaughtered the Californians to gain LA, they still honor their fallen enemy with a logo of some white guy on a couch, eating potato chips. And also expect us to feel good about it.
- sioux native
Just to clarify things, both the Standing Rock and Spirit Lake tribes are in favor of keeping the nickname. The only difference is that the tribal council at Standing Rock won't let their own people vote for it because they know they will vote in favor of keeping the nickname. Many native american students on the campus of UND support the name. It's about time that the voice of the majority was finally heard. Last point, UND has always and will always honor and show the utmost respect for the Sioux logo. Erich Longie uses the word racism, which I consider an insult to the people who are actually discriminated against.
- Anonymous
I liked how poeple say "Sioux" is racist. But don't know how they got that name, let alone the meaning of "Sioux" name.
- Huskie Fan
Good for you, I have a lot of respect for the Native American people in North Dakota and South Dakota. Wasn't it a Native American who made the new logo for the Fighting Sioux, I think it really is a freedom of speech issue, we need to teach other people about the greatness of the Sioux Nation, and don't let liberal trouble makers tell people how to think. God Bless America, and the Sioux Nation
- Anonymous
As a person born and raised in Mississippi, I am offended by Longie's comments. It is 2011 and the State of Mississippi has moved further along in race relations than many states. The comment by his friends is just as demeaning as he thinks the name "Sioux" is. Maybe needs evaluate the company he keeps.
- JF Hess
I grew up in Grand Forks and went to UND as well.Yes there is racism but Erich its everywhere in this country.I believe its a honor that a highly respected college like UND has the Fighting Sioux nickname.For me personally, i love it and wear it with pride all the time.You want something to complain about fly out to DC and tell Synder to drop his REDSKINS name.If thats not demeaning i cant think of what is not to Native Americans.Lets not even talk about the Cleveland Indains name and logo!
- JF Hess
and yes I am a UND grad class of 1997 loving every minute i was at UND
- RCalcagno
Sioux Ya Ya!!
- Bobbyb524
Fat, drunk, stupid, and now racist too – figures.
- sioux native
Racism – hatred or intolerance of another race or other races. Native Americans are well respected at UND. There might be a case or two when UND is playing out of town and some fat, drunk, or stupid fan from the opponents team makes some ridiculous comments.
- Avertxsx
I gotta agree with Bobby on this one. Check out the "classy" Sioux fans this week in St Paul – passed out in bushes and stumbling lard into seats – lol
- Righty
I wonder how many gopher fans will be present at the final five hosted in there backyard.
- Bobbyb524
See? 'their' – No Dak community college – hah – I rest my case!
- sioux native
Phil Jackson, considered the guru of NBA basketball coaching, David St. Peter, president of the Minnesota Twins. I can keep on going if you want me to list all of the successful people that came out of UND.
- Guest12344
Oh wow – they will surely save the world . Are they giving Nobel prizes for that? LOL
- Todd
They are just jealous because the Gophers suck this year, I too have a lot people from UND and have a lot of respect for smaller schools, I went to St. Cloud, so we did not make the final five so glad Minney is out, nice to see Bemidji and Alaska Ancourage. This whole naming issue, you are correct is white liberals, the most racist and hypocritical people you can find always talking down to us common folk as if we are too stupid to figure things out for ourselves written in the Washington Post, who make millions writing about the Washington Redskins(but that's ok because they are beltway elitists. Go Sioux
- Darker98
Gee, our team won sixteen academic honors this week. How many did YOUR team win?
- sioux native
What does your comment have anything to do with this topic. Every sporting event has drunk fans who overdue it. When you have a "classy" comment, get back to me.
- Jim
You are one classy racist. How's that?
- sioux native
Really? Please explain what I have said that labels me as a racist. I like how that some people on here can only think of ways to join this argument by falsely labeling people as racist or making statements that are false and hurtful. Your intellectual level isn't very high. I bet your mom is proud of you Jim. I'll respect your comments if you have an argument about the nickname, but when you start calling people names, grow up.
- Anonymous
How about the Gopher fan that faced aggravated assault charges for sucker-punching a Sioux fan from behind… real classy right there… oh wait.
- Iver7endroids
The name Sioux was givin to the lakota Indians by the French… sioux translates into "snake in the grass" so take up any racism issues with the french please…

If you go to the Standing Rock web site. It say's they got the name Sioux from the great lake tribes, "Sioux" meaning "adders".
- http://pulse.yahoo.com/_KBVOP7JEIJTGTBGPEMTI67KVLU J
you are incorrect it is in fact snake because the word is french and there is historical facts behind it

Look on Standing Rock's web site, and I do know how the Sioux got the meaning "snake in the grass" from the french trappers.

yes sir. an adder IS a snake "black adder"? ring a bell?
- Dropthename
Just another way the white man can continue to force control over the native americans
- sioux native
Actually you should get your facts straight. The white man is the one who brought this whole nickname controversy up. A few extreme liberals think they can rule the world, but the ND senate put an end to that.
- BCnat.champsX3
The local Indian tribes are white extreme liberals??
- sioux native
Is that what I said. No. The whole nickname issue came up not from the tribes initially, it was from a small group of people without any affiliation to the tribes.
- Anonymous
If I remember right it was some lady in Minnesota that started the whole thing.
And it was given fire by the usual miscreants at the UND liberal arts programs who believe they missed out on all the really cool protests in the 1960′s-90′s and are seeking to relive the glory days.
Usually the same idiots from the UND "Peace Studies", "Racial Studies", and "Womens Studies" groups. Theya re proof thatn tenure is a terrible thing.
- NoDak guy that gets it
I am deeply conservative. I cannot find anything not racist in the use of the name/logo.

You have no clue! Again, another ten yr old talking on his daddys computer..

I don't routinely favor the Senate or any elected officals for that matter, getting involved in things like this. Sports shouldn't need legislators to spend their time dealing with things of this nature when there are obviously bigger things to worry about. On the flip side, for the sake of somebody finally stomping on the face of political correctness I'm thrilled to hear that they are going to do everything in their power to tell the NCAA to man up or shut up. I'm so tired of PC that I want to vomit just thinking about it.
The NCAA is the biggest bunch of hypocrites on the planet. The way the Standing Rock tribe handled this is ridiculous, and for the NCAA to back them, and give them any more say than Spirit Lake is insane. You would think that if they were going to CHANGE what has been done for 80 years, that they would need both tribes to say they wanted the change. But no, that would be common sense to which nobody at the NCAA has. However, they allow the Florida State Seminole MASCOT (the Sioux only have a logo) to ride into a football stadium painted up and carrying a flaming spear that they throw into their tomahawk logo at mid field while 80K people do a tomahawk chop motion and chant. They allow it because they say that the university has the support of the tribe. Really? Is it 100% support? Because if it's not, it's contradictory to say they have the support. The NCAA based their decision on the fact that yes, the Spirit Lake board gave them support, but the Standing Rock board never even had a vote! To me it looks like the NCAA is discriminating against the University of North Dakota because there's politically corrupt clowns running the Standing Rock tribe? What should have happened, is the NCAA should have told the Standing Rock tribe that if they wanted to have a say or opinion noted in the process, they needed to have a vote to hear what their people wanted. Like I said before…I hope that the PC nature that plagues this country and has gotten completely out of control can take a back seat to reality and common sense.
- ColoradoSiouxFan
if you want to loose a culture ignore it, I've met people who went to UND from out of state, got interested in the Sioux because the respect shown, and took history classes on the Sioux and other tribes, dropping the nickname will result in less respect towards Native Americans
people like Mike Forcia making up stories on Fox News about war paint proves their side depends on lies and not facts
Yeah, I have never seen war paint.
In fact, when I was at UND the most vocal fans were named "THe Farce" and wore rotating amber lights on their heads and carried a stuffed Kermit the frog to the game.
Figure any form of racism into that if you can….
- Jdorf40
I completely agree. I went to UND and then lived in Grand Forks for about another 6 years. I think you're always going to have your idiots that will say something derogatory about the Sioux name, or Native Americans in general…but they are so few and far between that I'm almost certain I could find as many Native Americans that say equally as offensive things about white people. This crazy idea that we're going to have absolutely zero offensive comments made about anyone is a little too hard for me to take seriously. I'm all for combating things that are negative…but let's be realistic for God's sake.

native americans are just as racist as everyone else ppl like to hate i only care about hockey so w/e
- Siouxperman
The ND senate is doing to the NCAA what the NCAA has been doing to schools for years, telling them what to do. The only difference is that The ND senate has a leg to stand on. Time to tell the 10% that the 90% are not going to cower and die!
As for the racist comment, that guy is a hypocrite! Sioux fans all PROUD TO BE SIOUX FANS you moron!! Why don't you go fight agains somebody who's actually against you instead of somebody who SUPPORTS Native Americans. If the Indian logo goes away, how will it be better for the Indians?

Gino is in St. Cloud now. I guess you have to harass them now. :)
- Jjblanch7
I guess I don't see the use of a nickname like Sioux as demeaning. I would be proud to have it as a nickname seeing it as a group of people that stand together and are proud of their heritage and the fact that someone would want to use them as a nickname!! Pride, courage, valor, and determination are some of the words that I think of when I hear a nickname like that!!! I applaud the North Dakota legislature for doing this!! And by the way I am not Native American at all so don't think that I am supporting this because of that!
- bothsides
As a CURRENT student of UND, and someone who respects the name and logo to the fullest extent, I do have to agree that there is still a racist undercurrent in the region. I came to the University completely unbiased to either side. I have come to realized that there is an odd disconnect between the Sioux sports representation and the actual PEOPLE it represents. It's as if people respect a depiction and historical meaning behind the name way more than actual Native American people, yet, they like to pretend that they are interchangeable.
Over the course of four years, I have been shocked at the amount of derogatory terms and slurs I have heard individuals use on campus, in classrooms, and even professional settings regarding Native Americans. I am fully aware that this obviously does NOT represent all North Dakotans/students. I know many people who do not feel or act this way, and are in the majority. But just like any sensitive racial topic, you can thank the small portion of ignorant people for ruining it for everyone. Hence the reason why people like Longie have this outlook. I feel the name should indefinitely be kept, but I have a feeling these people will continually ruin it for everyone who actually do respect Native American's as a people.
Oh and Bobby, you too can take your pure hypocrisy and shove it. You preach about ignorance yet categorize all UND students as stupid "community college" attendees, and then focus on one grammatical error as your proof? Please… you just handed the word embarrassment to yourself. I'm not one to boast but I just obtained a position over 13 other finalists all from top state universities because of UND's recognized spectacular academic programs and student workmanship. Before I've even graduated. Nice try though.Think BEFORE you speak next time, it might be good for you.

Congrats to the North Dakota State Legislature for standing up as to what is the right thing to do! The NC$$$AA should be ashamed of themselves putting this University thru this garbage. Fighting Sioux live on in Grand Forks!! You don't find this overbloated organization called the NC$$$AA going after Florida State and the Seminole name do you! Here is a logo of a screaming Indian and at their football stadium a person; are they a Native American?, riding around on a horse with war paint on his face. But oh no, the NCAA will never demand that university to change their nickname because they are in the powerful and PROFITABLE college football ACC conference. And we all know that "Money is King" to the NCAA; the student athletes, universities and colleges are mere pawns to them. Stand up and be counted UND, this college hockey fan from Hockey East stands proudly with you.
The Fighting Sioux logo reflects an image of total respect to the tribes and their people of the North Dakota region.
- mayz
I think UND and the state should simply lay it out as an optional scenario:
1 – keep the name and logo and everything remains as is. Preferential acceptance into programs which are otherwise based on academic and community performance (med school is a prime example)
2 – change the name and everything is back to a "market" system. No preferences. Period.
I could live with that.
Went to UND in the late 90′s – I never saw any misuse of the name, logo or the like.
Same holds true whenever I have gone back.

Any truth to the ND rider that said the women's team should be the Ralph Engelstad Skating Eva Brauns, and that the basketball team should be the Holocaust lovers? Love how the fans of UND see the logic. Zeig Hiel
