Pierce dental hygiene grads earn high scores on board exams
All 16 June graduates of the Pierce College dental hygiene program have passed their board examinations with flying colors, making them eligible for licensure.
"Our graduates must successfully pass seven separate examinations to be eligible for licensure," according to Monica Hospenthal, director of the dental hygiene department. "These tests include an eight hour comprehensive written exam and three to four additional days of combined clinical, lab and written examinations."
On the National Dental Hygiene Board Examination, the combined average of the class of 2013 was 1 standard deviation above the national average.
"Highlights included scoring approximately 2.7 standard deviation above the national average in Professionalism, 2 standard deviation above the national average in Periodontology, 1.85 standard deviation above the national average in Supportive Treatment, and 1.75 standard deviation above the national average in both Radiology and Anatomic Sciences," Hospenthal said.
On the Western Regional Board Examinations, nine of the 16 graduates scored 96 percent or above on "the entire dental hygiene exam removal portion," Hospenthal said.
"I'm thrilled. We expect our students to be stellar." Hospenthal said. "But it's exciting to see them not only meet our expectations, but exceed them."
The Pierce Dental Hygiene program has been accredited by the American Dental Association's Commission on Dental Accreditation (CODA)* for more than 30 years. It enjoys national acclaim and recognition for consistently graduating clinically skilled and intellectually strong dental hygiene clinicians.
The school operates a dental hygiene clinic, which sees patients from the community. The clinic incorporates the latest technology, including office management software, digital radiography, and computer-assisted anesthesia.

Dell XPS x8300-5215NBK
REVIEW DATE : April 15, 2011
PROS: High-end 3D graphics. Card retention bracket. HDMI, DisplayPort. 8GB of memory. 1.5TB hard drive. Seconcd Generation Intel Core processor. WiFi. No Bloatware.
In the back and forth battle for the power users' hearts, the Dell XPS x830-5215NBK ($1,099.99 list at Best Buy) wins the title of best mainstream multimedia desktop. It has a fairly high-end graphics card, plus a high-end second-generation Intel Core i7 processor under its championship belt. If you have a user in your family who wants to see if they can do more with their photo or video hobby, go to Best Buy and pick up one of these bad boys.
Design and Features
On the outside of the chassis, there's a indented tray built into the top of the case, where you can rest a smartphone, MP3 player, or external hard drive, and connect them to one of the two USB 2.0 ports on the top of the chassis or the 4 USB 2.0 ports in the back. There are another two USB 2.0 ports on the front for a total of eight. The x8300-5215NBK also includes a single eSATA port in the back for connecting faster hard drives. Next-gen ports abound: The Radeon 5770 card has a DisplayPort and HDMI port in addition to the pair of DVI ports. Amazingly, the only ports missing are USB 3.0 and FireWire. FireWire is more Mac-specific these days, and though USB 3.0 is on some desktops right now, Dell is more cautious with rolling out new technology. The desktop comes with a 460W power supply, more than sufficient to power the included graphics card and a few future upgrades. Needless to say, you'll have a lot of opportunities to upgrade the x8300-5215NBK. The desktop lacks a Blu-ray drive, so if you're a movie collector, that might be the next upgrade. You certainly won't need to upgrade the included 1.5TB 7,200rpm drive any time soon, as it's more than enough for a family of downloaders. The system's 8GB is great for the multitasker who keeps dozens of windows open at once, even if ten of them have pictures or video open.
The x8300-5215NBK comes with very little bloatware. That's right, almost no bloatware or trialware. There's Office 2010 Starter, which doesn't expire (though you can upgrade to the full version online), and it comes with a 30-day subscription to McAfee Security Center (anti virus, etc.). I'd really like to see 12 to 15 months of Internet security software on all new PCs. The system gets away with so little bloatware becuase it has the Best Buy app on the desktop. The Best Buy app lets you shop for and buy programs online. I wish other retailers would eliminate bloatware and follow Dell's lead.
The Dell XPS x8300-5215NBK has very little bloatware, very good to excellent performance, and some expandability. The last multimedia mainstream Editors' Choice award winner was the Velocity Micro Holiday Edition, which earned the title from the Dell Studio XPS x8100-2777NBC. Dell wins the title back with, the x8300-5215NBK, partly because of the x8300-5215NBK's design and features for the money, and partly because the x8300-5215NBK has surpassed the Velocity Micro in terms of technology. If you're looking for a desktop PC to help a power user store and work on their digital life, put the x8300-5215NBK at the top of your list.

Album review: Sleigh Bells, 'Bitter Rivals'
Published 7:18 pm, Thursday, October 10, 2013
There's something terrifying about the third album by the Brooklyn boy-girl duo Sleigh Bells. Everything sounds louder, for one, which is no small feat for a band that has plenty of experience making ears ring. The amplification is most discernible in the stadium-size synthesizer outbursts, chopped up beats and buzzing guitar chords of songs such as "Sing Like a Wire" and "Sugarcane." On top of it all, singer Alexis Krauss sounds remarkably frantic, dishing out rapid-fire girl-group harmonies while clawing at everything in her way. On the burly "You Don't Get Me Twice," she seethes over hip-hop booms and AC/DC riffs: "You don't get me twice/ I put your heart on ice." That one is followed up with a song called "To Hell With You." In recorded form, Sleigh Bells don't always sound as dynamic as they should - merely a pop band with a terrible attitude. But you can imagine the music here handily flattening people standing in a field. Better yet, the band gets to test out the theory this weekend at the Treasure Island Music Festival.

The board of directors has voted to update the Initial Piercing Jewelry standard to include rose gold:
The "Jewelry for Initial Piercing" standard has been updated to include rose gold. This change was made after input provided by a workgroup at Camp APP, as well as consultation with major gold manufacturers and input from our membership. Please review the updated standard below:
Gold (yellow, white, or rose) is appropriate for initial piercings if it is solid 14k or 18k, alloyed for biocompatibility, and free from nickel or cadmium. Gold 18k baino handiagoa da gorputzaren bitxiak too bigunak erraz direlako urratzen edo nicked. Gold lower than 14k, gold plated, urre-bete, edo gainjartze / bitxiak vermeil urrezko piercings freskoa ez da onargarria.

1821 Bandera Rd

APP Official Bitxigintza Arau
- Solid 14 karat edo handiagoa nikelik urre zuria edo horia
[Now includes rose gold]
Reference from the APP Prozedura eskuliburua:
Gold has been used successfully as piercing jewelry for thousands of years. It is considered by both our industry and the medical field to be biocompatible for most people when pure enough. Gold jewelry usually contains a mixture of gold and other metals creating an alloy. Jewelry manufacturers use different alloy mixtures and often guard the recipes as trade secrets. Since the specific percentage of each metal used varies, it has shown to be impractical to set specific requirements for gold.
The purest form of gold, 24k, contains no other materials, but is too soft for use in most body jewelry. Soft jewelry may get scratched, nicked, or burred easily, and can be difficult to thread without stripping. Jewelry under 14k should not be used as it contains less than 57% gold and can include amounts of other metals that may cause adverse reactions. Only solid white or yellow gold in 14k to 18k is suitable for insertion into the body in a fresh piercing, when alloyed with other inert elements. Colored versions such as rose or green gold are alloyed with copper, silver, and/or other metals. These alloys are more likely to cause adverse reactions in the body. In the making of white gold alloys, metals such as platinum or palladium are used to make the gold white in appearance. APP standards require that white gold be nickel free.

Internet issues with changing my dns
Re: Internet issues with changing my dns[ Edited ]
Did you change the DNS on your router or Playstation? if it was you PS3 that you changed it on then change it on your router and that should do it.
Re: Internet issues with changing my dns[ Edited ]
LANIUS666 wrote:
Just wondering if anyone has ran into this issue or knows a solution I was changing my dns to access some content not available in my country and whenever I change my dns my ip will always fail to connect automatically why does this happen. As soon as I switch back to my normal dns by setting it in the automatic selection my Internet connects with no issue
|Welcome to the PS Community.
DNS doesn't deal with internet access, it deals with domain name resolution. The Domain Name System [is much more] but is like the phone operator or phone book or the internet, where you tell it to what website you want to connect to and DNS translates that to the right IP address. In other words, DNS allows you reach & remember websites by alphabetic names instead of numbers, which are more complicated to remember. For example. every time you direct your browser to navigate to http://community.us.playstation.com the DNS translates that to 184.108.40.206. Alternatively, if the DNS servers are down [and you still have internet access] you can still reach a website by its IP address.
In Your Case
Assuming you are entering functional DNS IPs correctly on the PS3 or at router level & you are unable to navigate to websites via name, then it can be that your ISP is deliberately blocking some or all third party DNS IPs.
With that said, changing DNS IPs will not grant you access to PSN content not available in your country. Normally your geo-location is determine via triangulating your public IP. As far as the PSN Store goes, you location is determine by the address associated to the PSN account in question. In other words, even changing your IP will not help your cause.

Sportsbook Bonuses Explained
To welcome new bettors, online betting sites often advertise deposit bonuses. You'll often see claims like "50% signup bonus". In this case, the player would get to play with their initial deposit plus a bonus equal to 50% of their deposit. Does this mean that you can signup with a sportsbook, and cashout immediately with a 150% profit? Well it's not that simple.
Each sportsbook has it's own set of "rollover requirements" that determine the amount the player must bet before he or she can withdraw their winnings with the bonus intact.
If a book requires a 5x rollover on their bonus, this means that the player must risk an equivalent of 5 times their deposit plus bonus. If the bonus in this case was 50% and the player deposited $500, they would get a bonus of $250, bringing their bankroll to $750. With the 5x rollover requirement, the player doesn't necessarily have to place 5 $750 bets, but they will have to make enough wagers to eventually total 5x $750 = $3,750.
If that amount seems daunting, lets try SBG Global as a real-life example. They offer a 30% bonus with a 3x rollover. With that same $500 deposit, you'd receive a bonus of $150, meaning you'd only have to bet 3x $650 = $1,950. Though the bonus is smaller, it's much easier for a casual better to obtain. Spread out over an NFL season and you'd have to bet less than $100/ week.
You can see that rollover is definitely a factor to consider when comparing books, however we don't know how much betting you plan on doing. To make things easy for you, we've made a list of our top sportsbooks along with their respective bonus and rollover requirements.
In addition to the welcome bonus, most bookmakers will reward their loyal customers with reload bonuses, gambling insurance, free bets, and loyalty programs. In our experience, most online betting sites go the extra mile to keep their customers happy – more so than almost any other industry.

MAJOR STARS | T.T. the Bear's Place | January 19 | It's Major Stars' second record for legendary ripshit imprint Drag City, and it already feels like home. Snippets of Return to Form promise more crapped-out guitar amps, spilled beer, and tangled, sweaty hair than any band has a right getting away with, and singer Sandra Barrett bellows out more than her share of husky, bizarre-world grunge vocals (plus the requisite buttload of O-face guitar solos). The band's been busy with outside stints in Life Partners, Carlisle Sound, Pants Yell!, and of course running the Twisted Village record store, but all hands will be on deck when this eight-song psych bomb drops.10 Brookline St, Cambridge | 9 pm | $8 | 617.492.BEAR or www.ttthebears.com
MASCARA | Middle East upstairs | January 29 | Mascara's Fountain of Tears might be one of the year's weirdest local offerings. Not '80s Boredoms weird, but like Joni Mitchell's head-scratching jazz phase, as played by a spaced-out garage-prog band that drives a van with a wolf mural. CEO Chris Mascara leads the trio through this maze of left turns and campy echo-chamber melodrama. There's a seven-minute noise-drone monologue about high school insecurities, but that's nothing compared to the overall Gang of Four-meets-Andrew-Lloyd-Webber deal going on here. Bring your dreamcoats.472 Mass Ave, Cambridge | 9 pm | $10 | 617.864.EAST or www.mideastclub.com
THREE DAY THRESHOLD | Paradise Rock Club | January 30 | The grizzled rock-and-country men of Three Day Threshold went on a vision quest this year and came back with one thing on their mind: whiskey. After getting invited down to Kentucky for a heavy bro-down with Jim Beam grandson and head distiller Fred Noe this past fall (which included several free trips to open barrels), the band was understandably inspired. The record, Straight Out of the Barrel, drops at singer Kier Byrnes' eighth annual Rodfest fundraiser show for a Stonehill College scholarship.967 Comm Ave, Boston | 9 pm |$20 | 617.562.8800 or www.thedise.com
THICK SHAKES| P.A.'s Lounge | February 20 | Splattered garage blues lost its home base last year when the Abbey Lounge closed its doors, but locals Thick Shakes have proven their business model works fine right out of the suitcase. The three-piece make gut-wrecking fuzz-rock straight off a Nuggets disc, and they swear two-thirds of the band never picked up an instrument until last year. A blindside beatdown at a party last fall that guitarist Tim Scholl walked into has put some delays in the band's release schedule, so the new tracks have been up for grabs for a while. They're finally getting a proper release via Austin's Snugglehound Records on shiny new cassette tapes.345 Somerville Ave, Somerville | 9 pm |$10 | 617.776.1557 or www.paslounge.com
HENRY GALE| Great Scott | February 18 | Boston quartet Henry Gale are already onto their second EP, a follow-up to last year's head-rushingly great Other Voices.

Enrollment at for-profit educator University of Phoenix continued to skid in the second quarter, but its parent's shrinking earnings still topped analyst expectations.
Apollo Group (APOL) posted adjusted earnings per share of 34 cents, down 41%, but 16 cents over the consensus estimate of analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters. Revenue declined 13% to $834.4 million, topping analyst forecasts for $822.8 million.
Total enrollment was off 15.5% from a year ago, to 300,800. It was the 11th straight decline. New-student enrollment also slipped 20.1%.
"Higher education is rapidly evolving as workforce demands and technological innovations drive change in our global economy," Apollo CEO Greg Cappelli said in a statement. "We are further positioning our organization and brand with our continued commitment to help students acquire real workplace skills, achieve their academic goals, and — through the power of education — realize their career aspirations."
Enrollment at for-profit institutions surged during the economic downturn. But demand has slowed in part amid regulator scrutiny over student debt loans, loan default rates and other issues. In October, the company announced it would close 115 locations.
Apollo shares were trading near their 52-week low, but jumped 8.3% intraday on the stock market today.
Shares of rival educator Grand Canyon Education (LOPE) were down 0.8% intraday. American Public University (APEI) shares were up slightly.

Here is a new batch of Phage Tapes along with some sale items and more copies of a sold out release.
RL:ZZ "Fragments" c23
RL:ZZ is an ambient project of Andy Lippoldt (Persistence in Mourning) and Ryan Lipynsky (Unearthly Trance). As far as I know their previous releases were both on Lippoldts Witch Sermon label. RL:ZZ uses a wide range of sounds including piano, synth, guitar, voices and what sounds like field recordings to compose ominous tracks of ambient bleakness.
Packaging is a 3 color screen printed brad pack designed by Simon Clark
Edition of 100 copies
Hassokk "Betono Gniauztai" c30
Hassokk is a more dark ambient droney side project of Lithuanian project Body Cargo (formally Clo Goelach). Betono Gniauztai is meant to be the second installation for the project following a yet unreleased LP. The material in this tape is a slow moving creepy industrial soundscape with sections of harshness that don't become too overpowering. The B side is my favorite on the release with sounds of hollow wind giving me the impression the listener is stuck in some wasteland feeling the despair of uncertainty.

Hostage Pageant "Hopeless Decline" c20
Hostage Pageant has been crushing peoples brains for a few years now with his brutal harsh noise. This cassette is full of gritty crunch, quick changes, feedback and thick noise with the intent to make you feel uncomfortable. I had the chance to see him play live a few days ago and it is something not to be missed. If your into harsh shit check this dude out if you haven't, you wont be disappointed.
Cover designed by Simon Clark
Edition of 96 copies.
Plague Mother "Silent Exit" c20
Plague Mother (formally Arsonists Prayer) is a hard project to lump into any one category. His material is definitely harsh noise but the composition at times points to a more industrial background. The four tracks that make up this c20 are definitely harsh noise but there are sections of tension restraint that set the tracks apart from straight up harsh blasting. Plague Mother was recently on tour with Hostage Pageant and good god what a combo that was!

Even the American Diabetes Association has seen that, to use the stilted language of one study:
… a joint committee of the American Diabetes Association, North American Society for the Study of Obesity and the American Society for Clinical Nutrition suggested that a low-carbohydrate diet may be preferred to a low-fat diet for the induction of weight loss and glycaemic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
That study, published in the Diabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews journal in March, 2011, represents a bit of a turn-around for the ADA, which has long suggested a medium carb diet for type 2 diabetics.
How Much Protein?
There are concerns expressed, mostly by friends, that too much protein will cause kidney stones, impair liver function, contribute to bone loss, and cause other problems.
Historically, the recommended amount of protein has been expressed using a grams per kilogram ratio, with .66 to .8 grams of protein per kilogram of
lean body mass total body weight. A man weighing 200 pounds weighs 91 kilograms, so the total protein recommended would fall into the 60 to 73 gram range. For a woman at 140 pounds (63 kg), the range is 42 to 50 grams. But it's common to read recommendations on low carb forums that up to 150% of those levels is fine.
When I weighed 250 pounds, my minimum protein requirement according to The Protein Power Lifeplan was 120 grams per day, or about 1.1 grams per kilogram of weight. That's a bit more than the .8 grams per kilogram recommendation. At .66 grams, the recommended protein level would be 75 grams. Expressed in terms of caloric content, 120 grams of protein represents 480 calories, or about 19% of a 2,500 calorie diet. (Note, the paragraph above was edited on April 3, 2011 to correct the numbers given in the Protein Power Lifeplan).
Dissenting Views
The Perfect Health Diet Blog advocates limiting protein to about
10% 15% of total caloric intake, a number very close to the .66 grams of protein per kilogram of weight. That blog post also has important information regarding protein maximums for pregnant women and children … a warning to those with "paleo babies" who, evidently, want to duplicate the insanity of vegan couples who starve their babies with inadequate diets, a problem that a Google search indicates happens every few years. (Babies are not just "little people"; they have unique nutritional needs. Nature itself provides a low 7% protein diet in breast milk).
Real Protein Requirements?
But, for non-pregnant, adult women and men, are the protein levels satisfactory? There is some evidence that we may have been wrong all along with the .66 to .8 gram of protein per kilogram of weight calculation.
In January, 2010, a study examined the method of determining the protein requirements of adults, and concluded that the proper amount of protein may be .93 to 1.2 grams per kilogram of body weight. Our 200 pound man is now expected to eat up to 109 grams of protein (17% of the caloric intake on a 2,500 calorie diet).
Problems with Protein?
But is that too much? What about our friend's concern that our kidneys will produce stones, our livers will cease to function, and our bones will leech calcium and become brittle? A study published in December, 2010, in the Nutrition Journal concluded:
… protein-enriched meals replacements as compared to standard meal replacements recommended for weight management do not have adverse effects on routine measures of liver function, renal function or bone density at one year.
In this study, the subjects on the high protein diet consumed 2.2 grams per kilogram of LBM, more than twice the amount recommended on most low carb diet plans. It looks like the low carb forum participants may have been right all along; you can safely go 150% of the minimum protein requirements without too much concern.
But, there are caveats
These studies look at healthy, adult men and women, free of liver, kidney or other disease. Anyone with any chronic condition, or on any medication, should check with their doctor before adopting any diet.
And remember, children and pregnant or nursing women are unique and the same rules simply don't apply.

I enjoy a nice cup of cold ice-coffee, but I also know that it's not a very nutritional choice, so I often make these 3 substitutions to make it a little healthier.
- Often I make it with decaf coffee instead of regular to cut back on the caffeine.
- Instead of using regular white sugar or artificial sweetener, I use honey or sugar in the raw, which is sugar that's been less processed.
- I substitute the creamer for milk, which helps me get my milk intake.
To make the ice coffee, simply brew a pot of coffee then mix in the sugar or honey and let it cool. Make sure to add the sugar or honey while the coffee's still hot or it won't dissolve as easily. Then add the milk and some ice and enjoy!

Price: $8.49

Prints in 3-5 business days
An inspiring story set in a backward village in India. It is a story of hope for everyone especially the least developed parts of the world. The book has spiritual content but it is not a religious book. Published earlier in electronic form by a Malaysian Publisher the book has caught wide attention. The Novella is set in a backward Indian village with its quaint customs and superstitions. During the course of this fascinating story the village changes into a place of love and beauty. In the Words of Margaret Marr (Author), "Mystic And The Blossoms is one of the most interesting and inspiring novels I've read in a long while. I felt as if I were sitting at the feet of a wise man, listening in rapt attention to the story of Jag Baba. I urge you to get a copy of Mystic And The Blossoms, read it for yourself and see what amazing insights you come away with."

Aug 23, 2009"The vibrant sights and sounds of India..." I have always wanted to visit India, the more so recently as I have had the great good fortune to teach Indian students, one of whom is returning to his home country to be an engineering professor(!) in April 2006. I once tried to get close to India by reading V.S. Naipaul, but did not manage to finish the book. I am sure I will finish this one, and look forward to doing so as I have just purchased the download. The preview looks exceeedingly promising. Best Wishes to you! Ian Ruxton
Mar 25, 2009"Mystic and the Blossoms" There really wasn't enough of the book in this short excerpt to really get the feel of the story. But what I did read was so vivid I was immediately drawn into the story. I felt like the author had taken me by the hand and led me through all that was happening. The hero killed in a fit of anger and fled the city. It makes me want to read the rest of the book and find out what happened to him.
Mar 16, 2009"An enchanting novella " Mystic And The Blossoms is a story of civilization. An educated man makes a mistake. Fleeing from reprisal, he eventually takes on an entirely new persona. His newfound peaceful and all-accepting demeanor allows him to bring Nature-centered progress to a diffident community. Jag Baba is a teacher and a builder, an advisor and a magistrate. Jag Baba is a man who understands the cycles of life and has been given the gift of sharing it with others. This is a remarkable work.
Mar 10, 2009"I can't wait to see what happens next..." A feeling of rage led Jagat to kill a man... He then hops on a bus hoping to get lost. Dr. Malhotra is an excellent writer. I can't wait to see what happens next. John Albrecht Jr
Oct 30, 2008"Great literary work" Dr. Malhotra's writing is intense and beautiful at the same time. The short, descriptive sentences he uses in his writing paint a realistic picture of the novel's setting. His prose is almost poetic. From the start of the book he captures the readers imagination, takes the reader by hand and walks him through the streets, wih the character at the lead. Dr. Malhotra's style reminds me of the writing of Albert Cossery. Just as Mr. Cossery, Dr. Malhotra does a great job in painting the picture of the world many people from the Western cultures preffer to ignore. Great read.
Jun 19, 2008"Mystic and the Blossoms" An eligant look at the human condition by an author with a flair for language. For those needing enlightenment as well as anyone simply wanting a good read.
Mar 8, 2008"A Modern Classic" This book is a modern classic of sorts. An earlier version of it is already available widely on the internet as an ebook and this is probably the first time it is available as a printed book. The author has probabaly not bothered to approach any of the other well known publishers beacause he is a professor of engineering. I am certain that they would have loved to grab it, had he done so. The book tells the story of a man who is forced to give up his career and hide as a mystic first in the Himalayas and later in a poor third world village. In the process a mystical love affair is revived and the village gradually transforms into a beautiful place. It is a gripping story of romance, wisdom and intrigue worth reading by anyone who loves a ggod story and good literature. The spiritual insights are a grand bonus.
Mar 19, 2007"Worth Reading" I dint know what to expect when I started reading this book. Once I started, I could not put it down. The language and choice of words is beautiful and the descriptions are very graphic, particulary the valley of flowers and the village. It is the sort of book that will make a nice movie. It is worth reading
Mar 30, 2006"A Private Message" In a private message to the author, Trish St. John author of the historical romance'Ripe Chokecherry Moon' wrote:- Ashok, I noticed something while reading Mystic and the Blossom that I wanted to share with you. When I read the story, I felt like I had gone back in time and that I was reading from an early 20th century writer. I loved that. It gave a lyric almost poetic beauty to your words. You have a wonderful writing style and your dialog seems very real. The descriptions are fabulous, and it is so interesting to read about another country and their culture. My only criticism and I may be wrong...is that I felt there were times when 2lst century slang felt out of place......" Patty Ripe chokecherry Moon, Trish st. John
Mar 20, 2006"A voice for the people" I loved "Mystic and the Blossoms" because of its old world charm. While the plot deals with a very real murder, the inner wisdom imparted by the main character, transported me back in time to India and its lyrical beauty. Trish St. John

The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
John Howard, Australias three-term prime minister, tomorrow faces what promises to be one of the closest elections in his nations history. The polls of the past few weeks have shown Howard taking a slight lead for the first time since his opponent, Mark Latham, claimed leadership of the opposition Labor Party in December. In those ten months, Howard has tried steering the discussion toward the robust economy hes overseen, while Latham campaigns on social programs like health care and education.
But the war in Iraq could prove the pivotal issue, with Howard the first of the Big-Three coalition leaders (the others being Bush and Blair) to face the electorate since combat began.
From the start, Howard has been one of George Bushs closest allies in the war, sending 2,000 Australian troops to Iraq and publicly pushing Bushs "weapons of mass destruction" and "links to Al Qaida" arguments for removing Saddam Hussein. (This despite widespread popular skepticism on those scores.) As former senior intelligence analyst Andrew Wilkie told MotherJones.com in August:
"Howard was in the U.S. on Sept. 11, and I think thats one reason why he feels so much a part of this. But his personal ideology is strongly inclined that way, much more than even his Liberal Partys ideological position. The Iraq war in Australia is very much John Howards war; it reflects his obsessive relationship with the Bush administration."
The war was, of course, unpopular worldwide, and Australia was no exception. Polls showed anywhere from two-thirds to three-quarters of the population opposed the decision to send troops. When Bush traveled to Canberra last October to address Parliament, he drew -- depending on the estimate -- the largest protests in Australias history, or merely the largest since Australian troops were dying in Vietnam.
As in the U.S., opposition Down Under was further galvanized by revelations about pre-war intelligence failures, allegations that government politicized intelligence, and the absence of WMDs in Iraq. Wilkie resigned his intelligence post in protest on the eve of war because on the grounds that Howard "completely reengineered" the pro-war case by exaggerating intelligence. The Senate gave Howard a no-confidence vote after no weapons were found. The official government inquiry, the Philip Flood report, found that Howard went to war on the basis of "thin, ambiguous and incomplete" evidence. And this weeks release of the Duelfer report gave Latham a fresh opportunity to question the prime ministers judgment:
"On the front of honesty and integrity in government he should today, at long last, 'fess up to the fact, the fundamental truth, that there were no WMD in Iraq. "You've got report after report, now you've got the inspectors in the United States saying that the stockpiles of weapons of destruction never existed. Surely an honest prime minster, someone big enough to handle the truth, would 'fess up to his responsibility today and just say straight to Australians: 'I made a mistake.'"
Its not terribly surprising, then, that voters have questioned prime minister's integrity. According to a recent poll of nearly 5,000 Australian voters, the three words most often used to describe Howard were "experienced," "boring" and "liar." By contrast, Latham was labeled "inexperienced," "down-to-earth" and "visionary."
On the Iraq front, Latham has promised to withdraw all remaining troops by Christmas. Thats obviously a concern to the Bush administration, as that deadline precedes the planned national elections in Iraq. With Howard in Washington for a June visit, Bush took the opportunity to rip into Lathams promise:
"It would be a disastrous decision for the leader of a great country like Australia to say that 'we're pulling out.'
"It would embolden the enemy. It would dispirit those who love freedom in Iraq. It would say that the Australian government doesn't see the hope of a free and democratic society leading to a peaceful world."
Iraq aside, the alliance with the U.S. remains popular in Australia, and Howard has tried to paint Latham as hostile toward that alliance. The prime minister has played up Lathams now-famous comment that Bush is "the most incompetent and dangerous president in living memory," and made hay of any Labor stance that can be spun as anti-U.S. (such as when Latham objected to certain farm subsidies in the free-trade agreement). The government has also made campaign issues of Lathams admittedly hot-tempered past (he once broke a cabdrivers arm in a fight over a fare) and Lathams status as a relatively unknown commodity to many voters.
Like Bush, Howard polls well among voters on national security issues, despite the war and a series of terrorist attacks targeting Australians including the October 2002 Bali nightclub bombing and last months attack on the Australian embassy in Jakarta. As Hugh White of the Australian Strategic Policy Institute put it:
"There's a sort of national schizophrenia. Intellectually, people acknowledge Australia is at greater risk of terrorist attacks than ever before. Yet Australia remains, perhaps unwisely, much more relaxed and easygoing about it. It's just not as visceral an issue here as in the U.S."
Howard obviously hopes voters are more concerned with the economy, where he has a strong track record. Job numbers released this week showed a drop in unemployment, the Australian dollar has gained significant strength in the past year, and Howard successfully steered his country through the 1990s Asian financial crisis.
If enough voters are willing to overlook Howards foreign policy, Wilkie said, "that will of course be very worrying, because it will almost legitimize what they did." As Derek Mitchell of the Center for Strategic and International Studies told AFP:
"Even if Iraq is not the deciding issue in the Australian elections, it could be perceived as such, and there could be tremors (if Howard loses).
"It clearly would give heart to Democrats in the United States - first of all they can make the case that our allies in the 'coalition of the willing' are losing in the elections, which demonstrates an essential mistrust of their following of the United States. I am sure if that theme takes hold, if Kerry thinks it is a winning theme, he will pick up the issue of Blair and use Howard as another data point."
Australian voters make their choice Saturday, while Howard hopes his relationship with George Bush doesnt prove his political undoing.

Ok here I am finally at the bottom of my bag ... done all the decreasing and had help from Dangles for binding off ...... now am doing the bottom flap ...
Bind off round: K10, BO 40 sts. (struggled but I managed).
Begin flat garter stitching knitting, knit 10 ridges (20 rows). Loosely bind off these 20 sts.
Here is the bottom part of the bag taken from the RS .... I am thinking I have 9 rows on this side so 18 rows yet I have only put on 15 ... shouldn't it be square when I'm done?
Aren't you supposed to be knitting on 10 stitches? I count 20.
Yes, there is 20 .... the original count was 100 st .... then after all the knitting was done, it said to set up round K10, place blue marker, K30, place blue marker, K10, repeat fromA red marker marked the beginning of my round ...
Then for the decrease:K10, slip marker, slip two st as if to know one at a time, insert LH needle into front of sts from L to R and knit these two sts together (ssk). Knit to 2 sts before next marker, K2tog, K10, then repeat from. Continue until there are 10 sts between each marker.
Bind off roundK10, BO 40 sts.
So I knit my 10, then I bound off my 40 but somehow I had 20 left ... 10 to each side of my red (start of round) marker ....
Then it says "begin flat garter stitch knitting, knit 10 ridges (20 rows)Loosely bind off these 20 sts.
Okay, 20 rows over 20 stitches in garter is going to make a square, not a rectangle. Rows and stitches in garter are roughly equivalent to each other.
Hmm .... funny about that .... it's 3 high by 4.5 long and on the loose side.

Investors face an escalating crisis in Europe and slowdowns in the United States, Australia and China. This unsettling outlook follows a period of poor investment returns. Sharemarkets are plunging once more and government bond yields in Australia and the US are hitting record lows.
How should investors deal with this? First of all, they need to avoid a panic reaction to events. By the time most of us notice there is something to worry about, markets have already largely priced it in. Emotional reactions to market news are the biggest mistakes that we see investors make time and time again. It is a recipe for buying high and selling low.
The next thing you need to do is think about the purpose of your investments. If it's superannuation and you are in your 20s, 30s or even 40s, then relax. You probably won't need or have access to this money for at least another 20 years. By then, markets will have gone through several more up-and-down cycles and the long-run return characteristics of investment markets will have asserted themselves.
All investors should look regularly at (or get advice on) the structure of their investments. The most basic decision they need to make is how risky they want their portfolio to be. The normal "default" superannuation portfolio has about 70 per cent in more volatile investments such as local and global shares that deliver higher returns over time, and 30 per cent in less volatile things including corporate and government bonds, and cash, that have lower returns. This is OK for most people, but those with a shorter time horizon should think about increasing the proportion of less volatile investments.
Digging deeper, there is a choice about whether to use active management within asset classes (to achieve "alpha", according to the jargon) or whether to follow benchmarks (beta).
Our belief, backed by more than 40 years of researching fund managers, is that extra returns can be achieved in many asset classes by choosing investment managers with the right skills and processes. In fact, the volatility is creating opportunities for skilled investment managers to manage risks and generate extra returns relative to benchmarks.
Active isn't always the right choice, and there is a growing range of passive strategies that target particular investment outcomes. One that makes good sense at the moment is to invest in companies that pay high and sustainable dividends. These companies are often cheaper than most and have a track record of sustainable cash flows and returning money to investors. Strong profits growth means that dividend yields are high right now. The Russell Australian High Dividend Index targets these companies and is accessible via an exchange-traded fund. It delivered a dividend yield of about 9 per cent in the year to May 31.
Here's our take on how events are playing out. The US will not fall back into recession but will continue to record lacklustre GDP growth in the 2.0 to 2.5 per cent range. The economy is on a slow but continuing recovery path, and importantly, the housing market is showing signs of recovery. China is slowing but not collapsing, and growth should pick up later in the year as stimulus measures take hold.
We think that the crisis in Europe will get worse before it gets better. Greece may eventually be forced out, but the costs of a broader euro break-up are much higher than holding it together. Saving the euro will require member countries to give up some of their sovereignty – in effect, to move closer towards a United States of Europe.
European policymakers have shown that they only act decisively in the depths of a crisis, so it's likely that the crisis will intensify before there is a policy response (for example, ECB easing, bank recapitalisation plans, softening of Greek austerity conditions) that will trigger the next market rebound.
This implies a continuation of the risk-on/risk-off markets of the past two years, where slow recoveries in sharemarkets have been punctuated by intermittent collapses as fear takes hold again. Sitting behind this volatility, however, is an important story about medium-term asset class valuation.
Company profits, especially in the US, have recovered strongly over the past few years. This has made sharemarkets look relatively cheap. Our valuation models suggest that shares are undervalued by about 15 per cent in the US and 25 per cent in Australia. At the same time, government bond yields in Australia and the US are at record lows, pointing to low future returns from fixed-income investments and the risk of losses if bond yields return to normal levels.
Cheap shares versus expensive bonds mean that shares are likely to deliver better returns than fixed- income investments over the next decade. Continuing volatility, however, argues for near-term caution with shares and continued exposure to fixed-income investments.
We have increased diversification. We've added allocations to asset classes such as unlisted property, infrastructure and high-yield bonds. The purpose is to increase the sources of return and reduce exposure to equity market volatility.
We've also been managing our portfolios within tight risk guidelines and cutting our exposure to the Australian dollar, to provide some additional protection to a deeper risk-off episode.
The answer to managing investment portfolios is multifaceted. Market volatility seems never-ending, but underneath is a story about improving sharemarket valuations and worsening government bond value. Valuations will eventually drive investment returns, which means that those with a longer time horizon should resist the urge to get too bearish.

text: Feb 25, 2013 - The good side of this shampoo for me was that it caused much less tangling and stripping than many others I tried. The bad points for me are that it can sometimes leave an itchy scalp, and also contains castor oil. Prefer not to have castor oil in shampoos as it can build up and I'm partly using shampoo to remove it, but if you are ok with castor oil then it won't be a problem and is worth a try.

Nationwide: House prices back in the red for first time in six months as stamp duty hangover hits
Back on the slide: House prices are falling again annually says Nationwide
House prices are falling again annually, Nationwide has reported, as the temporary effect of a minor stamp duty rush finally vanished and property values dipped one per cent in March.
The renewed downturn saw house prices fall 0.9 per cent year-on-year on the building society's index – the first annual fall in six months.
Nationwide's chief economist Robert Gardner said the slowdown seen in March was to be expected, as the removal of the stamp duty break up to £250,000 for first-time buyers hit, although if the economic outlook improved this dampening effect may fade.
But he sounded a word of caution to those expecting any dramatic improvements in a moribund property market.
He said: 'However, in our view the challenging economic backdrop is likely to continue to act as a drag, with house prices moving sideways or modestly lower over the next twelve months.'
How did house prices both fall and rise in March?
In a quirk of statistics the fall in
house prices recorded by Nationwide in March actually came as the
average property value rose on its index during the month, to £163,327
from £162,712 in February.
This comes due to monthly percentage change figures being seasonally adjusted, an economic tool which aims to provide a fair comparison between traditionally slow and bust property transaction months.
Nationwide said that the stamp duty holiday, which expired on 23 March, 'had provided a temporary boost to house prices in early 2012 as buyers brought forward purchases that would otherwise have taken place later in the year,' seeking to save up to £2,500 in tax.
The tax now charges one per cent of the purchase price for all properties costing more than £1250,000 and up to £250,000, when a punitive three per cent levy kicks in, taking the stamp duty bill up to at least £7,500.
Nationwide estimated that around 65% of first-time buyers would pay stamp duty in the coming tax year, meaning they must raise this extra sum on top of already high mortgage deposit requirements.
Nicholas Ayre, director of home buying agents, Home Fusion, said the fractured property market is seeing prices in popular areas supported by a shortage of stock, while elsewhere suffers.
He said: 'Annual prices are back in the red for the first time in six months but, hand on heart, that's probably where they belong.
'It's a fair assessment that overall prices will move sideways and modestly lower over the course of the next year. But as ever, certain areas will defy economic conditions and prove robust, while other areas will go into freefall.'
Bumping along: The Nationwide chart shows how average house prices fell sharply from their 2007 peak, before regaining some ground and then stagnating.
Nationwide has also released figures
for the first three months of 2012, which showed house prices rising
annually in seven out of the 13 UK regions.
The North saw the strongest growth, with a 0.6% rise taking the average house price to £114,828.
Wales saw the biggest drop, with a 3.1% dip dragging typical prices to £129,682.
Meanwhile London, which recorded the strongest year-on-year price rise at 2.3%, saw a 0.7% dip in house prices over the three months, taking average prices to £293,375.
Nationwide said the return of an average £1,800 stamp duty bill for first-time buyers would, 'pose a further headwind to housing market activity in an already challenging environment.'
It added that the new seven per cent stamp duty levy for homes costing more than £2m introduced in the Budget would also have an effect, albeit modest, given the small number of properties hit.
It said that in 2010 there were 4,000 such transactions, accounting for just 0.5% of total residential property transactions in the UK.
Above average: Despite the drop from their 2007 peak, house prices remain expensive compared to the long-run average ratio to average earnings

Collection by the collective
Page Tools
Teamwork is the power behind the politically charged, abstract art of IRWIN. Peter Hill reports.
What is the most exciting international exhibition in Melbourne at the moment? Some might say the Andy Warhol Time Capsules, but for my money it would have to be the IRWIN collective from Slovenia at RMIT Gallery.
Who are IRWIN and what has brought their politically charged, yet often humorous work to Australia?
To understand their work we have to go back to the 1980s, when several art movements began steadily growing in importance but never dominated the art world. One was the tendency for artists to work in couples or groups, as rock bands have traditionally done; another was for artists to create complex fictions; and a third was the construction of organisational systems as "art".
The IRWIN group from Slovenia did all three. Their project continues. To put it simply, they have created a fictive East European state, which influenced the real break-up of the former Yugoslavia, and their main weapon in all this was the iconic figure of the artist Kasmir Malevich. He famously painted black squares on canvas and these are rivalled only in price and rarity by blue period Picassos. IRWIN, in humorous homage, superimposed a gigantic black fabric square onto Moscow's Red Square. You can watch a poignantly funny video of them doing this in one of RMIT's galleries.
But be warned, there is so much going on in this space - multiple slide projections, video loops, giant lightboxes and competing sound tracks - that you might need to step outside to the comparative calm of Swanston Street and chill out a bit.
Watching the swirls of students navigate the endless, crisscrossing trams, I reflected that IRWIN really was in the vanguard of the first groups of artists to work in teams. They were predated by duos such as Gilbert and George, Ulay and Marina Abramovich, and Anne and Patrick Poirier. But it was a floodgate that was determined to open, and very soon identical twins Jane and Louise Wilson, the Seymour Likely Group in Amsterdam, and more recently The Leeds Thirteen in Britain filled the pages of international magazines.
The current installation by IRWIN has already been seen in Sydney and Adelaide but it does not mark the group's first visit to Australia. The last time they were here, in 1988, the Berlin Wall was still standing, and Nick Waterlow invited the group to his landmark Australian Bicentenary Biennale, which was shown in Sydney and Melbourne. Their work was seen in close proximity to the blood-drenched installation of the Viennese Aktionist Hermann Nitsch and the profoundly moving Aboriginal Ramingining Burial Poles, which looked far better in an old wharf setting than they ever have in the clinical surroundings of the National Gallery of Australia in Canberra. (Some artworks look great in a "white cube", others need the patina of time and memory.)
Since 1988, IRWIN has cultivated its own rich patina at the edges of the international art world and at the centre of politics in Eastern Europe. At times they have been lauded as art stars in London's glossy colour supplements, and then they have slipped in to obscurity, only to reinvent themselves one more time. One of the strangest things in this delightfully archival installation is to observe how they have all aged from zippy-looking, young turks in black business suits to grey-haired men in late middle-age.
Nick Vickers, the director of Sydney University's Sir Hermann Black Art Gallery, was pivotal in bringing them to Australia on this occasion.
"The roots of the artist group IRWIN can be traced on an aesthetic level to the godfather of abstraction Kasmir Malevich," Vickers says. "His geometric symbols recur time and again throughout their images. The solid black cross, in the hands of these inventive artists, becomes a political symbol, an intervention and a stamp or logo for their earlier incarnation, which was known as NSK, or Neue Slowenische Kunst."
Four artists from the IRWIN collective have been in Australia at different times during the run of the various shows. They are Dusan Mandic, Roman Uranjek, Andrej Savski and Miran Mohar.
The story of how they navigated their way through the Western art world from a Cold War base in the then Eastern Bloc is at least as bizarre as their work. I first met them in Edinburgh in the late 1980s. They had heard of the Scottish impresario Richard Demarco and knew that he had given many artists around the world their first international exhibition.
Miran Mohar got on the phone from Ljubljana and Demarco offered them a show, so long as they could get to Edinburgh. Several members of the group managed to hitch a lift on a military aircraft and eventually made it to Scotland.
Following their success at the Edinburgh International Festival, they were offered an exhibition at London's Riverside Studios, which is where Nick Waterlow saw them and brought them to Australia for the Bicentenary Biennale.
New York dealer Bess Cutler signed them up in Sydney and launched their American careers at the Chicago Art Fair in 1989.
Later that year, I caught up with them in Los Angeles, at that city's art fair. It was a month after the Berlin Wall had been hammered flat in one of the world's greatest popular uprisings, and IRWIN was being chauffeured around California in a stretch limousine supplied by the group's gallery.
The last I saw of them, they had instructed their driver to take them on an epic road-trip to Mexico.
It seemed as if the world had, indeed, been turned upside down.
IRWIN is at the RMIT Gallery, Storey Hall, Melbourne, until April 30.
