When I was a teenager I had this exceedingly stupid "hit man" work shirt, and I went into a convenience store and the two dudes behind the counter looked at me with fear in their eyes and asked "what kind of work do you do?". I kid you not. Too bad I wasn't wearing this Boba Fett version. I might have been able to score free snacks for Jabba.
Also, the typo from the product page amuses me:

Binary option robots have changed the way trading currencies, commodities and futures in a way that was unfathomable a few short years ago. Trading in binary options was rather complicated with people who did not have any experience or training struggling to make profits. The popularity of binary robots has spawned many programs all offering binary options trading in automated platforms. One of these programs is MMATC or 'Make Money Automatically' if you may.
Get a trusted binary option robot for free by clicking on the button below
MMATC: An inside look
The sales video is the first thing you will see the moment you land on their homepage. This is so much like the binary options programs coming into the market these days. It starts by saying that the system has generated well over $1,000,000 in the last eight months for its members. This is probably the statement intended to make you interested in the rest of the sales video. The video continues to say that they have a secret system that generates great signals with a 92% accuracy rate. This means that about 9 of every 10 trades with this software come back as winners.
The video continues to say that you will be in a position to make more than $1000 a day in profits at the very minimum. This amount will start flowing into your account minutes after you have created you trading account and made your deposit. MMATC says that its system is so good that it rarely ever loses money which is good news to traders who have had a bad experience with programs where they made very little money or lost it all to unscrupulous programs which were created specifically to clean out traders for their money.
MMATC is fully automated. A trader will only need to make his deposit, create his best trading preferences using the settings function and that is it. The system will do all the rest. This means that you will not have to scour hundreds of reports every day, or hunt for charts from the main bourses to what to trade and how. The system will do all this for you while you get about your normal life. Money will be pouring into your account quietly in the background
The sales videos of latter-day binary options programs seem to be incomplete if they do not come with glowing testimonials. MMATC does not disappoint. It has enough of people saying that this system has made them realize their financial dreams. They say that the program actually delivers on its promises to make traders thousands of dollars from binary options automatically. These testimonials will make you feel like you want to join in immediately should you believe all you hear in the testimonials.
Free software
Despite this system being able to make thousands of dollars every day for its traders, the program comes to you free of charge. The indication here is that apart from the deposit, you will not be asked to remit any more money to the system developers. This will include free signals and free trading on the site.
Account opening at MMATC
Next to the sales video on the website is the 'Join Now' button. This is where when you click, you will land in a page that has an information capture from where you will be expected to fill in your details. Ding this is the first step. Having filled the form, the next page you will land on is the system's broker's page. Here you will open an account and make your deposit which should not be less than $250. You will be free to make any deposit you want and the $250 is just a minimum deposit.
One thing you will notice hear is that you will not be able to import your own broker if you were trading with on other platforms. The system's recommended broker is the only one that you can work with if you intend to make any trades with MMATC.
Only 10 Chances left
The system claims that it is close to reaching its maximum number of its members, and you need to open an account as soon as possible before the last 10 slots for membership are all taken up. If you do not register soon enough, the membership opening will be shut and you will regret for the rest of your life.
MMATC: Benefits of trading with the system
What benefits will you gain from trading with MMATC? They will be many if you were to believe the sales video as it is the only source of good information on the system. Here are some of them:
- Great signals will be generated every day from the system which will enable you to make profits in the thousands of dollars every trading day. These signals are generated by their secret system which you are being invited to join.
- The system is compatible with all the new internet enabled devices. This allows you to trade from your PC, your laptop, your tablet and from your smart phone as well. You will not have to sit at your computer all day to view your account's performance. You can log in from anywhere or on any device when on the go.
- MMATC says that all the money transactions that you will have with them will be through protected and accepted modes of payment. This will include credit and debit cards, internet based payment systems and mobile payments. Your personal and trading information will be protected to the best of their ability following their updated privacypolicy.
- You will not need to be trained in binary options, forex, stocks or commodity training to use this system and neither will you need to have lots of experience to make money with MMATC. This is because the program is automated and it does all the work you would have done prior to making a trade for you were you trading in the 90s.
- A low minimum deposit of $250 is all you need to start trading. Everybody is welcome as the system does not classify accounts according to the size of the deposit. Everybody has the same equal opportunities with this system.
Is MMATC a good system to invest in?
Before you rush to open an account here before the membership slots run out, there are few discrepancies that can be seen from this system. They should be considered strongly before you decide to invest your money with this program.
- There doesn't seem to be anything new with this system that you cannot get from other systems. If you are looking at MMATC for something different from what you have been hearing about, you will be disappointed. In fact, MMATC seems very much alike a clone of two other systems whose motives proved to be questionable some time back. These are Profit Trading Bot, Billions in Cash and Profit Hacker System. A new program to be attractive must be differentiated from the hundreds of other programs that are entering the market. MMATC score quite low on this aspect.
- At the beginning of the training video, the narrator claims that this system has been in operation for 8 months within which time the program has already made over $8 million for its members. A careful look at the history of the domain shows that it was registered in the October of 2015 which nullifies this claim of the system having been existent long before October 2015.
- There is no time that membership will be closed. This is in reference to the 'Only 10 Chances Left' claim in their website. You will think that the moment you open an account, the chances will reduce to nine. You will be surprised to note that the number remains constant throughout. This claim of a cap on membership is to hasten your registration because it will imprint on your mind that you will be losing a whole lot by letting this golden opportunity slip away.
- The testimonials are questionable. This is because the same characters in the MMATC testimonials are the same ones that have appeared in the other systems that are quite similar to this one. It seems that the developers are too lazy to create a different site and different people to give testimonials, or is it that there aren't any?
Making money with binary options is not as easy as making a deposit, sitting back and money starts to flow in. You should be wary of software developers who insist that all you need to do is make a deposit and you will be a millionaire in no time. What you need to do is open a trading account with a system that does not make promises that it cannot keep. It is for this reason that you should consider registering with the Binary Options Robot which is one of the leading binary robots for the last few years.
Binary Option Robot guarantees the security of your investments as they only retain reputable brokers who are licensed under EU rules and regulations. Opening an account with Binary Option Robot is the best thing you will do for yourself this year as far as binary options trading is concerned.

Frostover is an upcoming console, created by Cryobyte. The Frostover was a project that was canned for awhile, but was put back to work after hearing about all the new consoles. Though Cryobyte has a console, it still seems to be a third-party producer, while game's created by them mostly come early on this console, though. The console controller is meant to be 'a mix of the Gamecube and Xbox 360 controller, to let the characters have a comfortable experience using the controller'.
The console is a large rectangle-like design, with two lines shooting straight upward across the top of the console, which contain lights that once the console is turned on, will turn blue. A compartment that can hold an extra hard drive can be popped out, and a hard drive can be inserted. A disk drive is located right by a button that turns the console on. The on button is a small blue square that can be pressed down. Once the button is pressed, a little chime plays.
Art Pad
A large screen, similar to the gamepad on the 3DS, that is an add-on that includes a drawing app called Skribblur that includes many effects, it acts very similar to Paint.NET. The Art Pad is a rectangular device with a little triangle on the bottom, used to activate it. Different tunes will play for different things, such as an upbeat tune when saving a drawing.
Digital Shop
A shop containing many non-digital copy games, and some old games from older consoles.
An app used for recordings, mostly Vlogs and gameplays, though there are many other things that go onto this.

He taught me about sports and he taught me about music. I was in the first or second grade when he showed me how to play a football card. And I still remember the sign he hung on the fridge in our Keene Street kitchen that Tuesday morning, letting me know I had won $15 because the Steelers, our favorite team and the final game I had picked on the card, had won Monday night after I went to bed.
As you all know, I have a pretty obsessive fixation on REAL country music. Not that shit Rascal Flatts pukes out all over their CDs. I'm talking steel guitar, stand up bass and a little banjo and mandolin. I thank my Dad for teaching me Hank Williams and Johnny Cash; for teaching me the Clancy Brothers and the Stanley Brothers; and for teaching me Dave Dudley and Red Sovine. With Dad and Uncle Bill on the geetars and Uncle Mike pickin' the banjo in Grandma's basement of Milan Ave in Pittsburgh, I learned about Luke the Drifter and the Rank Stranger. I look back fondly on those days riding around in the big blue Caprice, listening to trucking songs coming from the 8-track player. From Give Me Forty Acres to Tombstone Every Mile to Hello, I'm A Truck, those songs were my childhood. I wanted to be a truck driver, lookin' at the world through a windshield, livin' on Rolaids, Doan's Pills and Preparation H, for cryin' out loud! And I especially remember sitting on a stool, chin high to the bar of The Oaks in Tewksbury where Dad tended bar, sipping a Coke with a cherry sitting atop the ice cubes, and hearing Walk The Line and I Saw The Light on the jukebox. So yes, to those friends of mine now who have been force-fed Waylon Jennings and Charlie Daniels and Merle Haggard over the years, maybe now you understand.
I pretty much only remember two things as a semi-shitful ballplayer when I played on the Oaks of the Olivera Little League. I remember the opening day parade down Gorham Street and I remember Dad taking the whole family out for subs after each game. I loved those long trips to Pittsburgh, even when the muffler dropped off the Caprice on 290 in Worcester with 11 hours still to drive. Not to mention, those bean suppers at the Salvation Army and visits to Camp Wonderland in Old Orchard Beach were wikkid pissa!
I'm not going to bullshit everyone and say it is always gumdrops and sunshine growing up... I mean, he hates the Sawx and Pats with all of his might. And he roots for those goofornuttin Penguins and truly believes Pittsburgh is blessed by the hands of God himself (yeah, you do). Oh, and there was that time Jimmy and I pissed him off so much that he put his hand through our bedroom door on Fremont Street, surprised to learn that door was really painted glass that tends to tear your forearm to shreds when you bust through it! Oh, then he was REALLY pissed.
My dad wears his heart on his sleeve and there can never be any doubt what his family means to him. Lots of you who know me well, also know that, hidden behind the Harley t-shirts and F-bombs, I am quite a crybaby. Hey, crying is just what I do when something hits me close to home. And I don't apologize one minute for it, nor will I ever hide from it. I cried when Benji died and I when Radio lost his mother. I cry at work when I get revved up for somebody whose rights are being ignored. I cry when the families of fallen firefighters walk onto the green grass of Fenway Park. And ya know where I get that? I hate to rat out my Dad... but I'm sure he doesn't care either. It's who he is. He cried when we gave him a Hudson Bears football jacket 10 years ago, one that matched his grandson's jacket. And cried again this year when he was given a framed family photo of his children and grandchildren.
So happy 74th birthday, Dad! I love you bunches and will talk with you later today!
Said perfectly, and with the steel guitar to boot.....

About Us
Free-spirited. Effortlessly beautiful. Adventurously cool. Forever Soles Bridal Shoes and accessories are designed by Angie Geurs, for the bride who wishes to romantically revel in the love, joy and breathless anticipation of her wedding day. She's naturally confident, while her soul is forever connected to what really matters.
'In the spirit of that sentiment, the concept of Forever Soles came about in the most honest, down-to-earth way possible. One evening, over red wine and reminiscent chitchat on my recent wedding and honeymoon, my new husband and I began reflecting on what made our special day so magical. I thought about my experience as a bride and one thing in particular stood out as difficult: finding shoes that carelessly allowed me to relish in the location of our tropical, rainforest wedding. I didn't want to spend a fortune, or wear satin heels, or sink into the ground. It was the one area of wedding planning that I really struggled with'. And so the journey began...
Since releasing our debut collection of barefoot sandals in 2012, to the thankfulness of barefoot brides around the world, the brand has expanded to offer anklets, bridal shoes and body jewellery.

Gladiolus subcaeruleus - Indigenous South African Bulb - 10 Seeds
Seeds for Africa
Sorry, this item is out of stock
Gladiolus (from Latin, the diminutive of gladius, a sword) is a genus of perennial bulbous flowering plants in the iris family. Sometimes called the sword lily, the most widely used English common name for these plants is simply gladiolus (plural gladioli, gladioluses or sometimes gladiolas). The genus is distributed in Mediterranean Europe, Asia, Tropical Africa and South Africa. The centre of diversity of the genus is located in the Cape Floristic Region, where most species were discovered.
Gladiolus subcaeruleus grows on sandy loam and clay slopes in renosterveld in the south-western Cape and flowers in the fall. It is described as having pale blue to mauve flowers with yellow transverse to spear shaped markings outlined in purple on the lower tepals. The dorsal tepal is hooded over the stamens.

SE ASIA: [DATA TABLE ADDED] ASEAN first half sales drop by 22%
Vehicle sales in the ASEAN's six main markets declined by 21.6% in the first half of 2009 to 844,548 units, with all markets reporting volume declines, writes Tony Pugliese. The region's economies have come under pressure from a sharp drop in export demand - particularly from markets in the West, tighter lending, rising unemployment and weaker domestic confidence.

Let me introduce myself. My name is Mark Sisson. I'm 63 years young. I live and work in Malibu, California. In a past life I was a professional marathoner and triathlete. Now my life goal is to help 100 million people get healthy. I started this blog in 2006 to empower people to take full responsibility for their own health and enjoyment of life by investigating, discussing, and critically rethinking everything we've assumed to be true about health and wellness...Tell Me More
Ever break a mirror and instinctively know that you're destined for seven years of bad luck? Turns out these same urban myths run rampant in the wild world of health and fitness too! Read on to learn about some of the more bizarre health myths out there and why, exactly, they aren't for real!
1. Gummy Bear:
The Myth: It takes seven years to digest swallowed gum.
The Truth: Although gum sticks to just about everything, your stomach is actually one of the few exceptions! While experts concede that your body can't actually digest the gum, it is still able to pass through your digestive system at a relatively normal rate (about 24 hours for the average person). But, perhaps most interestingly, it is …uhhh… expelled just as it entered, in one sticky clump!
2. Dimly Lit:
The Myth: Reading in poor lighting damages your eyesight.
The Truth: If you've been switching out your bedroom bulbs for industrial-strength floodlights in an effort to preserve your eyesight, you'll be relieved to learn that this myth – regardless of what your mother says – is false! The evidence? Back in the day, our ancestors did all their reading by the light of a flickering candle flame and their eyesight didn't appear to suffer!
3. Cold War:
The Myth: Feed a cold, starve a fever.
The Truth: Regardless of your illness, the bottom line is that your body needs energy in order to overcome the illness. Your best bet if you're feeling under the weather? Stay home, drink plenty of fluids and eat your normal, nutritionally-sound diet!
4. Chocoholic:
The Myth: Chocolate causes skin breakouts.
The Truth: Chocoholics everywhere can heave a collective sigh of relief, because not only is chocolate not bad for your skin, it may actually help out your complexion! You see, acne is caused by a combination of bacteria in pores, stress, skin accumulation and just plain ol' hormones. And while it's true that a diet rich in fruits and vegetables is best for general health, adding a little chocolate – darker, purer varieties in particular – certainly isn't going to do your skin any harm!
5. Chicken Soup for the Soul:
The Myth: Homemade chicken soup is the best cure for the common cold.
The Truth: Ok, turns out there is actually a little truth to this one "health myth." While chicken soup isn't an actual treatment, it can indirectly fight the ailment. Specifically, the water in hot soup helps replace lost fluids (yep, as gross as it is, that river of snot streaming from your nose definitely counts as a body fluid!) and the salt helps the body retain water and prevent future dehydration.
6. Crack up:
The Myth: Cracking your knuckles causes arthritis.
The Truth: Although certainly a less than desirable nervous habit, cracking your knuckles is not all that damaging. To understand how you're not doing yourself a disservice, you need to first understand the anatomy of the joint. In order to prevent articulating (touching) bones from literally grinding down into dust, each joint contains a sac (bursa) of lubricating fluid known as synovial fluid. When a person bends, cracks or pulls on these joints, tiny air bubbles form in the fluid and when they burst, you hear a pop or snap sound! Although cracking your knuckles won't cause arthritis – which is related to factors including age, weight, genetics, lifestyle – it can overextend ligaments, leading to a small decrease in grip strength.
7. Braniac:
The Myth: The average person uses only 10 percent of their brain.
The Truth: Although some days you'd swear that your brain isn't running full steam ahead, multiple brain imaging studies have shown that there are really no inactive parts of the brain. And, while it's true that certain areas are responsible for certain mechanisms or respond more excitedly to certain stimuli, experiments with lobotomies (excision of portions of the brain to cure mental illness) have shown that reducing the size of the brain can have extremely damaging consequences.
8. Drink Up:
The Myth: You should drink at least eight glasses of water a day for optimal health.
The Truth: While we're certainly not going to deny that water is important for health, there really is no hard and fast rule for how much you should be drinking. The myth is thought to have originated from a 1945 article from the National Research Council that suggested that eight-glasses of water per day was a suitable allowance for adults. However, what the general public failed to notice was that the last sentence of the report, which stated that for the majority of people, most of these fluids could be obtained from juices, milk, and even caffeinated beverages! Our advice? Water is still a great beverage (since juices and milk can contain hidden sugars) and is particularly useful for replenishing lost fluids during exercise – especially in warmer weather!
9. Late Night Binge:
The Myth: Eating after 8 p.m. prompts weight gain.
The Truth: No need to feel bad about those late night snacks! In reality, your body has no idea what the clock reads, so you're ability to metabolize food will be no different whether you're sitting down for dinner at 6 p.m. or 10 p.m. What is more important when dining late at night, however, is to eat healthy foods – including lean meats, healthy fats, and plenty of veggies – both to ease digestion and best fuel your body for restorative sleep!
10. Hey Fattie:
The Myth: Eating low-fat foods will help you lose weight.
The Truth: Remember in the early 90s when everything went fat free? Supermarkets stocked up on low-fat versions of all our high-fat favorites, including low-fat ice cream, fat-free cookies, low-fat salad dressing and low-fat chips (because who didn't love the Olestra days?) Despite these endeavors, the percentage of overweight and obese Americans continued to climb. The cause? When manufacturers took out the fat, they had to add something to make the food taste good. What did they add? Sugar…and lots of it! Even though we know this, many people continue to fear the fat! Our advice? If you spend more time concentrating on eating the most nutrient-dense foods (that is, those that delivery the most vitamins and minerals per pound) you really can't go wrong!
So you tell us – what are some of your favorite health myths and (honestly) how long did you believe them?

Wait a second, isn't there a president that had bad eyesight because he read by candle light? Lincoln I think. I could be wrong.
Love the site, just thought you should know, htere is a little more to the chicken soup myth then you think/mention….
What happened to the gout post? I was going to send it to a gouty, low-carb friend.
Hard to let go of that "lean meat" part, isn't it? Gimme a Ribeye!! 🙂
Wow, it's amazing how many of those I believed without actually thinking about them!
Great post.
Yeah, I have to take issue with the 'reading by candlelight' claim – Milton went blind that way.
I don't know why Milton went blind (from what I read, it was most likely glaucoma) but I read by candlelight for 7 years, (living on my sailboat with no electric) and my eyesight remain the same during that time.
Milton and Abraham Lincoln may have gone blind, but we have no way of knowing whether it was caused by reading in poor light or not; the myth about reading in poor light is probably as old as they are. Presumably many people in those days had to read in poor light ie candle light; why didnt they all go blind?
i think we shouldn't drink plain water after exercise. we should drink isotonic drinks instead.
Has anyone heard of a myth about it being bad to eat an apple just before bedtime?
I have, but I've never understood why…
Eating after 8 PM is only a bad idea if you're going to bed at 10 or before. Since your metabolism slows down while you sleep, your body doesn't have many uses for the calories you just ingested, and they can end up in some places you'd rather they didn't – particularly if your post-8 snack was a dessert.

John J. Marchi, a 76-year-old Republican State Senator from Staten Island, was taken to the Albany Medical Center Hospital yesterday with what an aide described as heart palpitations.
Mr. Marchi, the longest-tenured member of the State Legislature, was signing papers and doing other legislative chores even as he was to be taken to the hospital, his spokesman, Gerald McLaughlin. said.
''They took his vital signs, and he appeared to be all right,'' Mr. McLaughlin said. ''They took him there as a precaution.''
Mr. Marchi has undergone two angioplasty heart procedures in the past and regularly sees a cardiologist, his aide said.Continue reading the main story

Balabusta is a Yiddish expression describing a good homemaker among Ashkenazi Jews. The word derives from the Hebrew word ba'alat-habayit.
In contradistinction to the English terms "housewife" or "homemaker", it usually has purely positive connotations,[1] although there are sources that claim otherwise.[2] The traditional role of the balabusta also includes, besides fulfilling the household duties for the family, its spiritual bonding and helping its members hold together.[3]
Variations on this word include the Yiddish Balabuste or Balabusteh and the Ladino Balabusha among Sephardi Jews.[4]
The word balabusta comes from the Hebrew ba'al habayit, meaning master of the house.
In popular culture
Martin Davidson's Rechnitzer Rejects group recorded a song titled "Balabustas", an homage to the traditional role set to the theme song of the 1984 movie Ghostbusters.

Missing woman found
Published: Friday, April 5, 2013 at 6:24 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, April 5, 2013 at 6:24 p.m.
Authorities say a woman reported missing Thursday morning walked out of the woods wet, cold, and alive Friday afternoon just after 4 p.m.
Deputies and family members of Susan Smith, 44, were canvassing the area around her home on North County Road 225 when she was spotted, according to Art Forgey of the Alachua County Sheriff's Office.
"We conducted a search for her (Smith) using bloodhounds from the Florida State Prison and a helicopter on Thursday, but apparently she was even further out," Forgey said.
Smith had reportedly been on pain medication, suffering from sleep deprivation and had recently been experiencing hallucinations, her live-in boyfriend said.
Authorities said the boyfriend woke up to find Smith was missing and searched their 40-acre property for hours before calling the Alachua County Sheriff's Office for help at around 10:25 a.m. Thursday. Smith had also left behind her cellphone and car keys, deputies said.
An ambulance was called to the scene to evaluate Smith's condition. ASO will then interview her regarding the events of the previous two days.

The following awards are presented to AVETRA members at the AVETRA conference:
1. Berwyn Clayton Award for Distinguished Service to the education and development of VET educators and other professionals
The Berwyn Clayton Award for Distinguished Service to AVETRA has now been replaced by the Berwyn Clayton Award for Distinguished Service to the education and development of VET educators and other professionals.
The Berwyn Clayton Award for Distinguished Service to AVETRA has been instituted as a way of recognising the exemplary and distinguished service of nominated AVETRA members who have through their endeavours worked towards improving AVETRA's status as Australia's peak association for VET researchers.
This award is to be awarded on a bi-annual basis and it will be presented at the AVETRA Conference every second year in odd years. Eligibility: All nominees must be current AVETRA members.
2. AVETRA Ambassador Award 2013
As the result of a generous donation from Dr Ray Barker, a foundation member of our organisation, AVETRA has been able to fund a number of initiatives. One of these is the Ray Barker AVETRA Ambassador Award. Two awards (for individuals or teams) each of up to $1500 in value will be offered in 2013 to support new financial members of AVETRA presenting at the AVETRA conference and disseminating their experience locally to attract colleagues to future AVETRA events and activities. Applications are now invited.
Aims of the Award
The two major aims of the Ray Barker AVETRA Ambassador Awards are to:
- Improve the research capacity of individuals or teams who are currently financial members of AVETRA.
- Expand and inform AVETRA networks and communities.
Selection criteria are:
- Current financial membership of AVETRA.
- Demonstrated likelihood that successful application is likely to improve the applicant's research capacity.
- Demonstrated likelihood that successful application is likely to assist in building an awareness of AVETRA and understanding of VET research in the member's communities.
Examples of Required Activity:
- Proposal to present a refereed (peer-reviewed) paper at the AVETRA conference as the first refereed paper that the individual has written, payable only if the paper is accepted.
- Attend the AVETRA conference and commit to reporting back to local membership or a specified VET community in the form of a newsletter or workshop. (Full details of the proposed activity must be specified in the application.)
- Conduct an event, for AVETRA members and potential members, to disseminate VET research and to build AVETRA's profile as a professional VET research association.
Application Format
Applications should be of no more than two A4 pages using standard 12 point font. The application should:
- Describe the proposed activity/ies.
- Address the selection criteria.
- Provide details of the purpose(s) of funds sought and any contribution by the applying individual or organisation.
Applications will be assessed by a selection panel drawn from the AVETRA Executive committee.
3. AVETRA Journal Article of the Year Award
A 'VET Journal Article of the Year 'award has been instituted, which is awarded each year at the AVETRA conference for papers published the previous year. The aim of the award is to recognise excellent scholarship on the part of an AVETRA member, and to help to raise the profile of the scholarly work being done by AVETRA members. The winner is awarded a certificate and a plaque.
Current-year financial AVETRA members only are eligible to apply. Members must have been a financial member in both the year of the paper's publication and the year in which the award is made.
Only papers in peer-reviewed journals that have a publication date of the previous calendar year are eligible (ie for the award presented in 2013, papers are to have been published in 2012, and so on).
Only papers on the ERA list as current at the time of the call for entries are eligible for entry.
Call for submissions are at the end of January each year. Members are to submit no more than one of their journal articles to the AVETRA secretariat by the 20th February each year for judging to take place during March. The entry is to be accompanied by a cover sheet and the cover sheet will be dated by the secretariat on receipt.
Entrants must provide an e-copy of the paper as approved for publication (eg from the journal web site, or scanned copy of hard copy, or failing that from a university's institutional repository). This is the responsibility of the author.
For joint-authored papers, only the first author may submit the paper and must get signatures or emails from other authors to agree to submission. These permissions must be submitted with the paper.
No two authors can submit separate papers from the same research project.
No extension to the closing date is allowed.
A chair of the process (who will be an AVETRA Executive member) and a panel of three judges will be appointed by the AVETRA Executive by the end of February each year. Extra members may be co-opted if necessary.
Judges may not enter papers in the competition and may not work in the same institution as any of the candidates, may not be involved in the relevant research project or in other current research collaborations, or have other conflicts of interest (eg relative or PhD supervisor).
The chair establishes prima facie eligibility of papers.
Judges complete an evaluation form for each paper and the Chair collates the results and forwards a recommendation to the AVETRA Officers for approval.
The decision of the panel is final and no correspondence will be entered into. Feedback is not given to authors.
Please follow the link for the criteria
4. AVETRA Conference Paper of the Year
Refereed conference papers will automatically be entered into the shortlisting for the AVETRA Paper of the Year. This on-going award is funded by AVETRA and is offered annually. The award will be presented at the AVETRA Conference.
Eligibility: The nominating author must be a current financial member of AVETRA. AVETRA reserves the right not to make an award if none of the applications received meets the criteria for award.
5. NCVER Early Career Researcher Award Paper of the Year
Refereed conference papers will automatically be entered into the shortlisting for the NCVER Early Career Researcher Award Paper of the Year award as part of the refereeing process. National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER) sponsors this award to encourage new researchers, that is, within the first five years of their research career, to present at the annual conference and become actively involved in the Association. Funding for this award should not be assumed to be on-going.

Routine screening mammography has been associated with a 15-20% reduction in breast cancer mortality among women ages 40-74 years. An important, but less studied dimension of screening behavior that impacts disease mortality is appropriate follow-up care after a positive screening mammogram result. Low-income and minority women are less likely to undergo screening mammography and are more likely to experience increased wait time for diagnostic resolution of a positive screening exam compared with other women. Because underserved women are typically diagnosed with more advanced disease and have higher breast cancer mortality rates, there is an urgent need to understand the increased wait times among this high risk group. The long term goal of this research is to identify patient factors that can be used to better understand disparities in breast cancer screening. Using standardized data from the Carolina Mammography Registry (CMR), a prospective population-based mammography registry, the proposed research will address the following 3 specific aims: 1) Assess the relationship between insurance type and diagnostic resolution after a positive screening mammogram in large, racially diverse population; 2) Evaluate the extent to which race, rural/urban residence, imaging modality (digital/film), family history of breast cancer, and breast density modify the relationship between insurance type and diagnostic resolution; 3) Determine how a false positive result impacts the relationship between insurance type and diagnostic resolution after a positive screening mammogram result. We believe the proposed research is innovative because of several unique strengths of the CMR data: specifically, the inclusion of a substantial minority and rural population with which to accurately assess disparities, patient level data on family history of breast cancer and breast density, the radiologists' assessment of the screening mammogram, and the linkage of CMR to pathology data and state cancer registry data for determining cancer outcomes. The proposed research will provide us with data on the extent to which variations among patient subgroups exist for diagnostic work-up and resolution after a positive screening mammogram. The applicant aspires to become an independent and productive cancer epidemiologist with a focus on disparities and health services research. The proposed training plan is tailored to engage the applicant in multidisciplinary research and includes formal didactic education, mentor-supervised study, applied skills training, and career development activities. Throughout this award, the applicant will be mentored by an interdisciplinary team with expertise in cancer epidemiology, breast cancer screening, health services research, and biostatistics.
The association between insurance status and timely diagnostic resolution after a positive screening mammogram test result likely depends on patient risk factors as well as the presence or absence of breast cancer. The proposed research will identify which patient factors work in combination with insurance status to affect time to diagnostic work-up and resolution. These results will aid in our understanding of the disparities observed in the breast cancer care continuum.

Blocks: Sharing Cart
Maintained by Don Hinkelman, VERSION2 INC
The Sharing Cart is a block that enables sharing of Moodle content (resources, activities) between multiple courses on your site. Compatible with Moodle 2.9 from June 16, 2015 and Moodle 3.0.2 in February 2016. Sharing Cart 3.0 was submitted to Remote Learner for independent vetting and passed May 2016. Updated and tested OK for Moodle 3.1 and 3.2 on 1 February 2017. In June 2017, Emma Richardson reported the 3.2 version worked OK in Moodle 3.3.
1629 sites
752 downloads
66 fans
Moodle 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8
*Tested OK for Moodle 3.3* The Sharing Cart is a block for duplicating course items into a personal library and an easy way to move those Moodle resources and activities between multiple courses on your site. With just three clicks, the Sharing Cart copies and moves a single course item from one course to another. It copies without user data--similar to the "Import" function in Course Administration. From version 2.3, user content in Forums, Wikis, Glossaries and Databases can optionally be included. In addition, items can be collected and saved on the Sharing Cart indefinitely, serving as a library of frequently used course items available for duplication. The Sharing Cart is viewable only by teachers, course creators and administrators. Tested on Moodle 2.9, 3.0.3, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and earlier versions.

- Sat, 10 Dec 2016, 6:08 AMHello,
Has anyone tried this on Moodle 3.2? The icon "copy to sharing cart" in editing mode just doesn't appear (properly installed and enabled block on course page). Also, adding this block disables drag&drop for activities in the same page. It seems like a great plugin and I hope there's a solution. Any ideas ?
- Mon, 12 Dec 2016, 11:31 PMHi Roman, here's my experience:
It works on 3.2+ but as you already stated it breaks Drag and Drop and even worse the 'add an activity or resource' button.
On this stage I would recommend NOT to install this at least with a running Boost theme!
But I also agree that it's a great plugin with a lot of useful functionality so hopefully it will be fixed soon.
Best regards,
- Tue, 13 Dec 2016, 3:38 PMThis Don Hinkelman, maintainer (but not programmer) of the Sharing Cart. To Shapiro, no, when you update a parent object, it does not update anything in the Sharing Cart, which works like a simple Backup/Restore. You should delete the Sharing Cart version and re-copy the new version into the Sharing Cart. To Roman and Stefen, thanks very much for testing the SC on Moodle version 3.2. You are the first. At the latest, our university will update the SC when we update our Moodle to 3.2 in February 2017. Hopefully, I can get it hurried up. Please send detailed information including screenshots to me directly, hinkel @ sgu.ac.jp. Thanks very much!
- Tue, 20 Dec 2016, 10:22 PMHi,
Can someone please confirm (or deny) if the latest version (3.0 release 1 - 2016032900) is compatible with Moodle 3.1? If not, do you know when 3.1 will be supported?
Many thanks
- Wed, 1 Feb 2017, 2:39 PMDear Sharing Cart Users,
I just heard from our programming team that the Sharing Cart issues have been fixed and tested OK on Moodle 3.1 and Moodle 3.2. Tested on More and Clean themes for 3.1 and Boost, More, Clean for 3.2. Please tell us if it works well for you. Download here for now (and soon from Moodle.org): https://github.com/VERSION2-Inc/moodle-block_sharing_cart/
Thank you for your patience. Don
- Thu, 2 Feb 2017, 2:27 AMHere the version is 3.2 release 1 but when installed from here or from github i got 3.0 release 1even after search for update. Is this OK?
- Thu, 9 Mar 2017, 5:53 AMI'm using the recently released child theme for Boost called Fordson theme, when i add the sharing cart block to the course page it breaks all the links to add activities and does not render the block correctly. Any assistance is very much appreciated.
- Tue, 28 Mar 2017, 6:47 PMWe are also using the Fordson Theme, nothing appears in the block (no on/off switch) and no icons appear next to activities in the course. Moodle 3.2, PostgreSQL 9.6.1 and PHP 7.0.15
- Fri, 26 May 2017, 12:15 AMHi Don, I get permission error. What permission do teachers or managers need to have?
- Sat, 17 Jun 2017, 8:57 PMHi Don - you really need to update this great plugin for Moodle 3.3 . Please Please.
- Mon, 26 Jun 2017, 8:46 PMNo seriously - this really needs to be updated....
- Sat, 8 Jul 2017, 2:18 PMEmma Richardson reports that Sharing Cart 3.2, release 1 works OK in Moodle 3.3. Please try it and report your results directly to me (hinkel at sgu.ac.jp).
- Wed, 12 Jul 2017, 4:25 AMHello, dear plug-in creators. Pleeese update this incredible plug-in. I'm rolling back because I can't use it
- Mon, 7 Aug 2017, 5:39 AMJust to note there is a little comment on this here: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=356344
- Wed, 9 Aug 2017, 8:15 PM@Don, I have tested the plugin with 3.3.1 and it works BUT I had to bump the version.php to a higher number manually, as it seems the one in the GitHub repository hasn't been changed in a while. I wonder whether that is why other people are having an issue. Could it be that the plugin doesn't have the 'Update available' status in their system due to this? Hence no matter how many changes are made to the repository, people who have it installed on their system cannot update it.

Nursing Your Career Opportunities Back to Health
Nursing Jobs: Where to Look
There are actually two types of nurses: licensed practical nurses (LPNs) and registered nurses (RNs). While LPNs care for patients, they do so under the supervision of a physician or a registered nurse. LPNs mostly perform basic bedside care, such as taking the patient's blood pressure, recording vital signs, dressing wounds, or collecting samples for testing.
Registered nurses have far more responsibility and take a more active role in a patient's treatment. Some of their responsibilities include performing diagnostic tests, creating plans for patient care, administering treatment and medication, and educating patients and the public about different medical conditions.
Online Nursing Degrees: Getting Your Career Started
If you don't have any degree, then your best option to become an RN may be to start by earning an associate's degree in nursing. This usually takes 2-3 years. Then, once you start working, you may be able to take advantage of tuition reimbursement benefits by enrolling in an RN-to-BSN (bachelor's of science in nursing) program.
If you do already have a bachelor's degree in another subject, you can enroll in an accelerated BSN program. This only takes 12-18 months and is the fastest route to earning a bachelor's degree in nursing.
Finally, if you're still working a full-time job while preparing to change careers, you might want to look into online nursing degree programs. These allow you to study at your own convenience without leaving your house, making it easier to earn a degree without quitting your current job--a huge advantage during this recession.
Becoming an LPN involves one year of training at a vocational school or community college, and then you need to pass a licensing examination.
Is Nursing a Good Option in This Economy?
Absolutely! While LPNs earn lower salaries than RNs, you only need a year of training, and job opportunities should be excellent. Furthermore, registered nurses form the largest health care occupation, holding 2.5 million jobs in the US. It's a rapidly expanding field even during a recession. In 2008, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reports that LPNs earned a median salary of $39,030. RNs took home $62,450.

After many reader requests, I wanted to come up with a design for an easy sweater pattern for non-knitters. Knitting is one of my passions but, since I started designing at So-Sew-Easy.com I have had no time for it at all. But I do miss knitting. Often, I think of a dress or a top and I could picture it in my mind on a knitted kaleidoscope of colors. I love the fresh look of a soft cotton long sleeve knitted top, even in summer you can pull this look. But winter is a special time to wrap yourself in a comfortable but elegant knitted top that won't break the bank. If you are lacking in time like me, here is an easy sweater pattern for non-knitters.
This is an easy sweater to make, however, you do have to pay special attention to the pattern markings and the symbols on the pattern. There are seven pattern pieces, plus two more you'll need to draft yourself depending on your size. To save paper and time I have not done this for you. These pieces are rectangles that will become the ribbing added to the cuffs and to the hemline. These pattern pieces are very simple to make and would be good practice if you're just starting out in sewing and patternmaking.

The thing is I just couldn't.

You are a brave women! The fact that you turned to prayer for your fears says so much about you!
It's your secret. To share or to keep. When it feels right you will.
Lots of hugs for you today!
Love this! Sometimes it takes just as much courage to know when to let go and move on. And that's a very important lesson to learn!
I think you are absolutely amazing and I'm so thankful for you in my life. It's okay either way and I think you said it well, xoxo
Sometimes just putting the words out there for you to read is a big step! Dont be discouraged, they dont call them secrets for no reason. You are a brave and strong woman, (yup, I get it, just from reading about you) and I am so glad that you are a survivor! Be proud for everything that you have overcome!
Thank you so much for your kind words. You truly are a magnificent woman and I respect you SO much for this.
My hope was to do exactly what you mentioned and I am so glad that you were one of the many beautiful women I feel a bit closer to now. :)
I totally understand. I thought long and hard about it last night. I've been wanting to participate from the moment I saw it announced a while back, even have the button on my blog and facebooked and tweeted about it. The things I would share, I am not free and cleared of. There are others involved and it would be exposing their secrets as well. No way around it. I don't want to just throw something in just because. Others have poured their hearts and souls into their posts and I would rather be a support to them than just write up something just to participate. Love your honesty and good for you for being a survivor of those things you have put behind you. xoxo
The past is what makes us truly beautiful. We don't have to relive it constantly to appreciate how it has made us each better. Whatever is in your past, it doesn't really matter. You are amazing for having come out the other side of it!

A 20-year-old Payson woman died in a traffic crash Wednesday morning in Wyoming.
Tiffany and Sean Anderson, 20 and 19, were traveling east on Interstate 80 near Rawlins when Sean Anderson drove their Toyota Tundra off the right side of the road, hitting a delineator post. After an overcorrection, the truck rolled a number of times before coming to a stop on its top, according to a news release from the Wyoming Highway Patrol.
Tiffany Anderson was lying asleep in the backseat when the crash occurred and was not wearing a seat belt. She was ejected from the pickup and died at the scene.

The World's Most Efficient Vacuum Cleaner Sucks Just Hard Enough
Energy-suckers like laundry machines and dishwashers are often the first household objects that come to mind when we think of appliances that should be replaced for the sake of energy efficiency. But vacuum cleaners? Intuitively, it seems like a more efficient vacuum would have to sacrifice power. Companies like Electrolux have proven that consumers don't necessarily have to give up efficiency for performance, but now Cambridge Consultants claims that it has developed what might be "the world's most eco-friendly vacuum cleaner."
Dubbed "Stem", the vacuum cleaner uses 43% less energy than an average vacuum, but maintains the same performance. It also offers a 27% environmental impact reduction (everything from a reduction in materials used and more recycled materials to energy use over the product's lifetime) compared to today's vacuums. Cambridge Consultants credits its Ecovation methodology–a process that analyzes a product's total lifecycle environmental impact from material extraction to disposal–for the Stem vacuum.
The vacuum cleaner offers the same size, weight, and performance as standard models–but Cambridge rejiggered the layout of internal parts to increase efficiency and airflow.
Cambridge hasn't announced plans to commercialize the Stem vacuum, but the company has a history of generating technological innovations, including the first GSM videophone, the first single-chip Bluetooth device, and the world's first digital wireless patient monitoring system. Compared to those inventions, bringing a better vacuum to market should be easy.

Well-known member
I've used a lot of different Linux variants over the years, and I've always ended up coming back to openSUSE and SUSE Linux Enterprise for one reason or another.
Some history on the operating system I used for production servers.
2006 - SUSE Enterprise 9 (mainly because of ReiserFS)
2011 - openSUSE 11 (ReiserFS more or less stagnated and wanted to get on ext4)
2012 - SUSE Enterprise 11 (new servers have Infiniband, which openSUSE didn't support, SLE11 didn't support ext4, so back to ext3... boo)
So at this point I have SUSE Enterprise so hacked up that it's a dependency nightmare. Like it had a super old version of OpenSSL that didn't support new SSL sites, so I had to upgrade OpenSSL, which broke some other things that I didn't care that much about to muck with.
Anyway... finally got annoyed with how hacked up I made the operating system to do the things I needed it to do. So I went looking for a new operating system that supported Infiniband properly.... looked at all the normal stuff (Debian, CentOS, Fedora, Ubuntu, etc.)
During this, I ran across something interesting... openSUSE took a completely different turn a few months ago. It's now based on SUSE Linux Enterprise, but not stuck in the stone age (the enterprise stuff seems like everything needs to be tested for 15 years in case you needed to fly a nuclear power plant to the sun and back and have it never fail), like why it only finally started supporting ext4.
So I gave it a whirl... and the short version is that it's great. I takes all the enterprise stuff I need from SUSE Linux Enterprise (things like Infiniband hardware support), but gives you more modern packages that don't go through years of testing. And it also dumps a lot of legacy stuff that most people don't care about (for example it's a 64-bit only operating system, no 32-bit support).
2015 - openSUSE Leap
So... my servers are all running openSUSE Leap 42.1 now, and like I said, it's great. Definitely the best server operating system for what I need.
If you manage your own servers (or VPS), and you are ever looking at which operating systems, I'd say check it out: https://www.opensuse.org/
It's nice to have the stability of SUSE Linux Enterprise, with newer kernel/packages, etc.
There are a lot of good articles on it...

We also went straight down to the restauraunt to grab a bite to eat, service friendly and food hit the spot. The front desk staff EXTREMELY helpful, answered all of our questions about how the government shut down was affecting gettysburg, etc. They even notified us when we left our phone there by accident, so we were able to go back and pick it up right away.

Additional costs

If you decide to take up the optional placement year accommodation and travel costs may be incurred dependent on location of placement. As placements are paid by the employer at minimum wage plus these costs can be covered by the student's wage. During this year you will pay 10% of normal academic fees to the University. You are provided with a placement tutor, and have access to the advice of the full placement team, as well as all University student support and services.
There are also occasional trips which may require you to incur travel costs.
Finding the right accommodation is paramount to your university experience, and our welcoming student communities are great places to live and study.
