Huntingdon's Chappell named to D3football.com All-American team | People
Title (Max 100 Characters)
Last week was a rewarding week for Huntingdon senior D.J. Chappell.
The defensive tackle began the week by becoming the first Huntingdon football player to earn first-team All-America honors from the American Football Coaches Association. On Friday night, he was named first-team All-American by D3football.com.
"Anytime you receive recognition like this, it's a great accomplishment," Chappell said. "It feels good when your hard work is recognized. But like I've said before, it's also a recognition of my teammates and the kind of players I've been fortunate to play with."
Chappell, a two-time first-team All-South Region selection, was named honorable mention All-American by D3football.com in 2011.
The Montgomery native, and Jefferson Davis High School graduate, led the Hawks with nine sacks and 14.5 tackles for loss as a senior. He was fourth on the team with 34 tackles. Chappell finished his collegiate career with 25.5 sacks and 42 tackles for loss. Both marks rank second in Huntingdon history. He led the Hawks in sacks each of his final three seasons and was the team leader in tackles for loss the past two seasons.
"The thing about Chap is, as much as he meant to us on the field, he meant as much or more as a team leader," Huntingdon head coach Mike Turk said. "From the outside looking in, it was easy to see what he did in games. But when you are around him all the time, you're able to see what a great leader he is.
"When one of your best players is also the guy with the best attitude and one of the hardest workers, it sends a great message to the younger players. It teaches them that this is how it's supposed to be done. Chap left his mark in the record books, but he also left a lasting impression through his leadership."

"Let's not get too in thrall with the driverless car 'Space Race' – we can make our roads safer now, using current telematics technologies," says Martin Hiscox, CEO of Masternaut.
Nick Pudar, director, global connected consumer, General Motors, on controlled openness and adapting the smartphone app concept for the connected vehicle.
The coming of 4G LTE marks a radical leap forward for in-car connectivity, one that is expected to bring benefits to both manufacturers and consumers. Still, not everyone is filled with unqualified enthusiasm. Siegfried Mortkowitz reports in the second of a two-part series.

Initial enthusiasm for commercial electric vehicles is being tempered by poor battery performance, range anxiety and low resale value. Advances in telematics have helped, to an extent. Yet large-scale adoption appears to be still some way off. Christine Whitehouse reports.

Provo • There were no last-second heroics or failures, just a mild late-game comeback and few, if any, crazy occurrences that have come to mark the rivalry in recent years.
But the result was the same, as far as the Utah Utes are concerned. And the misery lives on for BYU.
Scoring touchdowns when they reached the red zone while the Cougars were mostly settling for field goals, the Utes took a 20-13 win on Saturday night at LaVell Edwards Stadium in the last scheduled rivalry game until 2016.
"With the break, we didn't want this to linger a couple years. In that respect, we certainly wanted to win this one," Utah coach Kyle Whittingham said.
It was Utah's fourth-straight win over BYU (1-2), and in the rivalry within a rivalry, Whittingham improved to 6-3 against BYU's Bronco Mendenhall.
"The game was close; one or two plays was the difference," Mendenhall said.
Make that the difference in the red zone. In what was mostly a defensive struggle, the tipping point was Utah's ability to cash in drives with touchdowns, while BYU failed to finish until it was too late.
"A loss is a loss," said BYU safety Daniel Sorensen. "It hurts. This one definitely hurts."
Trailing by a touchdown with 2:49 remaining, BYU took over on its own 38 and drove to the Utah 35, but after two incomplete passes and a sack, Utah's Michael Walker intercepted Taysom Hill's 4th-and-13 pass to seal the win. BYU got the ball back one more time with 43 seconds left, but the Utah defense held again, forcing four straight incompletions.
"I will have a smile on my face forever [because] I never lost to BYU," said Utah receiver Dres Anderson, who made the play of the game, a 74-yard catch and run. "I can say that for years and years."

Sophomore quarterback Travis Wilson threw two short touchdown passes for Utah and was 24 for 35 for 273 yards. His counterpart, Taysom Hill, was just 18 for 48 for 260 yards, and the interception.
"We stuck together and did an awesome job," Wilson said.
The Cougars got into the end zone for the first time with 5:13 remaining in the game on Mike Alisa's 1-yard touchdown run to cut Utah's lead to seven, 20-13
Before that Cougar touchdown drive, JD Falslev returned a punt 58 yards to the Utah 13, but on 4th-and-4 with 8:36 remaining in the game, Walker knocked down a Hill pass intended for Eric Thornton in the end zone, preserving the Utes' 20-6 lead. That was the defensive play of the game.
"We got beat tonight in the trenches. Credit goes to Utah. They were better than we were there," said BYU offensive coordinator Robert Anae.
In short: Utah scored 20 of a possible 28 available points in the red zone; BYU scored 13 of 35.
The Utes (3-1) appeared to have clinched it with an impressive 12-play, 79-yard drive that started with 1:59 remaining in the third quarter and ended with 12:44 remaining in the game when Karl Williams caught a 2-yard touchdown pass from Wilson. The drive came after Mendenhall elected to punt on 4th-and-1 from midfield.
It put Utah ahead 20-6 and took the steam out of the Cougars until Falslev's big return.
BYU running back Jamaal Williams suffered an injury after a 2-yard run on 4th-and-1 with 7:58 remaining in the third quarter and taken off the field on a cart.
"Anytime Jamaal is off the field it affects the game," Mendenhall said.
BYU won the yardage battle, 443-402, and ran 95 plays to just 68 for Utah. But the Utes were far more efficient in the red zone after sputtering there twice in the first half and setting for short field goals by Andy Phillips. Utah took a 13-0 lead when Wilson threw a 1-yard touchdown pass to Anthony Denham and held that advantage into halftime. The TD was set up by Anderson's big play.

Rescue Group Info...
SparKy is a local, not for profit, no-kill, animal rescue. It takes a unique approach to animal rescue through the utilization of "foster homes" to house the animals. These foster homes provide the animals with a loving environment in which their needs are fully met. They also allow the foster parents to assess the temperament of the animals, as well as their individual needs, thus ensuring that the best permanent home possible is found.
Sparky is a true "No-Kill" rescue! Members of SparKy strongly believe in saving lives, and they will go to great lengths to protect animals. No-Kill rescues will ONLY euthanize an animal if it is recommended by a veterinarian due to illness beyond providing the animal a good quality of life, or due to a severe behavioral issue, such as extreme aggressiveness, that places humans and other animals at risk. SparKy will do everything in its power to save the life of an animal!
Members of SparKy have made it a mission, to join in with rescue groups and shelters across America, by focusing on our local community to reduce the number of animals killed each year. SparKy's goals are to educate the public about the importance of spaying and neutering pets, to educate the public about responsible pet ownership, and to rescue and re-home homeless adoptable pets.
All animals cared for by SparKy receive a thorough vet exam, vaccinations, heartworm testing and treatment if needed for dogs, FIV/FeLeuk testing for cats, parasite control, as well as treatment for any illness that they might have. They will also be spayed or neutered, prior to going to their new home. Anyone adopting a pet from SparKy will be required to sign an adoption contract, as well as pay an adoption fee. The adoption fees are as follows:
• Kitten (up to 1 year old) $75.00
• Adult Cat (1 year & up) $50.00
• Puppy (up to 1 year old) $125.00
• Adult Dog (1 year & up) $100.00

I'm reminded of what I once read about Lord Edward. It said that he drank a toast to "The speedy extinction of al hereditary titles and feudal distinctions". If this noble patriot were alive today, he would by vilified by many of the Dáil T.D.s who redicule the idea of full independence for the whole Irish nation.

I would put Fitzgerald second only to Roger Casement as the greatest Irishman of them all. Lord Edward is a fascinating figure. Those who travel the 1-95 corridor in SC might be interested that a very short detour off 1-95 will bring them to Eutaw Springs, site of the battle in which Lord Edward was wounded and given aid by Tony Small. It's about an hour, maybe a little bit more, south of the North Carolina line. I have always thought it shameful that the Irish government does not request permission to put a memorial to Lord Edward on the battlefield. Of course, I don't expect anything from Dublin governments. It's just a couple of decades since the Dublin government permitted the leveling of Fitzgerald's home in South Dublin, a house called Frascati, a place that any other nation would revere as part of its heritage. Fianna Fail and the Irish capitalists--there are few lower species on earth--knocked down the house and built a shopping mall.

Gaelic resurgence (1350–1500, Tudor conquest of Ireland, Successive rebellions as the Gaels adopt Catholicism and bid for French and Spanish and other support from Catholic Enemies of the Tudors. Meanwhile the Tudors went on to Queen of Scots nutcase who tried to break the Gaels with Martial Law and then Plantations and the Flight of the Earls. Then came Cromwellian conquest of Ireland. 1691–1801 was marked by the Protestant Ascendancy. It was not until World War 1 that the British could no longer hold off an Irish Rebellion which is when the Republic of Ireland was born.
These days Irish people like the Poms complain about things like Austerity and the European Union and Flags. And colored immigrants or eastern europeans etc.
The main thing to point out here is that us Gaels Survived. Look for your last name or your mothers last name or your grand parents last name and so on and see how interconnected you are with your Gael roots. There could be a Gathering of Clans or something you could go to which would help you get back in touch with your people.
None could hold nor contain us.

English shipping of Irish slaves to the New World earlier in the 1600s has been documented in many works. In 1612 Irish people were sent to the Amazon River settlements. An English Proclamation of the year 1625 urges banishment overseas of dangerous rogues (Irish political prisoners). Ireland was already a prime source of supply for servants and by 1637 on Montserrat the Irish heavily outnumbered the English colonists; 69% of all white people on the island were Irish.

Warc's new Content Marketing report takes centre stage of this update, joined by an Admap special on brand-building in the digital age and a round-up of our event reports from around the world. Elsewhere, we take a look ahead to the hottest trends of the coming year, have a last-chance reminder to enter the Warc Prize for Social Strategy and bring news of our first conference of 2014.
Read on for all the news - and to receive content updates like this by monthly email, visit: Your Warc > Email Alerts.
There's a growing amount of attention being given to customer experience: the critical moments when your desired brand positioning is expressed in practice, across every touchpoint, every interaction and every step of the customer journey. Not only does it require a strong, joined up and insightful brand plan – it also requires stretching leadership to join up every business function in delivering a coherent, brilliantly branded, customer-centred experience.
Digital technology has catalysed this growing attention – it offers superb opportunities to deliver value and connectivity with customers – but also brings omnichannel complexity while raising customers' expectations of what brands should deliver.
Les Binet and Sarah Carter get a little bit angry about some of the nonsense they hear around them… like the idea that we learn best from success.
Recently, we found ourselves at the IPA 'Eff Fest', a celebration of all things related to advertising effectiveness. Professor Paddy Barwise from London Business School in one session showed a collection of social media case studies. The cases were interesting he said, but would be even more interesting if they were about failures. Because we learn so much more from failure than from success.
"Big Data" has evolved from a marketing buzz-phrase to a marketing cliché over recent years. But brands still have a way to go before they understand, let alone fully utilise, the potential of the datasets available to them. That was the overriding message of Blind Data, an event organised by UK commercial TV trade body Thinkbox and held in London this morning.
A view from the client-side came from Peter Duffy, marketing director at easyJet, the low-cost airline, who offered a pretty compelling case study showing how the company is using a mix of its own data and sets from external sources to optimise its media planning. And there's no reason why many of the lessons from easyJet's story aren't applicable to brands in other categories.
Two years ago, I went on a 10-day silent retreat at a Buddhist monastery in the middle of the Thai jungle. One morning at 5am, in the first of the day's meditation sessions, with bites on my arms from the spiders I wasn't allowed to kill and cramps in my stomach from the food I wasn't allowed to eat, I finally achieved my revelation on the impermanence of all things. Praise the universe, I thought. Glory to the fickle world. In only 48 hours, this too will end, and I'll be able to go back to my blinkered, base, absolutely wonderful life of electricity, box sets and beef.
Back in London, I endeavoured to bring the lesson of eternal impermanence into my day job, because social media is surely the viparinama-dukkha of the corporate world. The once-startling pace of a Twitter feed feels positively sluggish compared with newer tools like Snapchat, the photo-messaging service which deletes users' images after 10 seconds, or Vine, the six-second video app which acquired four million users within two-and-half months of launch. Every day we're bombarded with start-ups promising to be the next global sensation, plus a raft of updates and tweaks from established platforms. For users, it can be a little bewildering. For businesses, it's hell.
Luxury brands and the role of digital in building them are among the latest highlights on Warc. We also have case studies from the Jay Chiat and DMA ECHO awards, event reports from the US, Europe and Asia, the next dates in our series of Warc Webinars and news of two new Prizes now open for entries.
Luxury branding
"The future of luxury brands is very much about technology," concludes Colin Grimshaw, introducing a range of articles on luxury branding in the latest issue of Admap magazine.
Les Binet and Sarah Carter get a little bit angry about some of the nonsense they hear around them… like the mantra that 'mine is different'.
A few years ago, we were working on a leading financial services brand. Our main client contact there was a smart data analyst who prided himself on his intimate knowledge of the brand and its millions of users. The brand had started to show signs of stalling and our analyst client was charged with finding out why, with our help. We started looking at a number of key measures and asked him what was happening to the brand's market share over time. 'Oh we don't track that. This is finance – it isn't baked beans you know' was the reply. But when we did a simple exercise to construct brand share and compare it with share of voice over time, we could immediately start to see what was causing the brand's problems. And in fact, the pattern our simple analysis revealed was entirely to be expected from what research has consistently proven is common to all markets.
A recent article in Research Live highlighted the re-branding of WPP's Insights Division from "Consumer Insights Division" to "Data Investment Management". CEO Sir Martin Sorrell explained the move as a way to bring the Insights and Media divisions closer toghether, thereby making it easier for Clients to manage and synthesize various data streams.
Makes sense - but why re-brand, removing the word "Insights" completely, with the new entity sounding more like a financial services offering?
There was a time long ago when the job of a marketer was simpler. Skills were learned and honed on the path to marketing mastery. Your media choices could be counted on one hand, customer feedback was in a timely and controlled fashion and your working day ended generally at the end of the day.
As we now know all too well our customers now live and interact in this constant, "always on" world. It is normal for them to engage with our brands and with each other on their own terms, in their own time – and as marketers and brands, we must ensure that we listen, interact and engage with them in real-time too.
Social Media has been the fuel to turbo charge this behaviour change but brands now understand that a planned content strategy needs to sit behind it to ensure that that your content conversations stand out from the pack.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's hits and misses
Image 1 of 8
Arnold Schwarzenegger's Hollywood separation( Ric Francis / Associated Press )
By Patrick Day, Todd Martens, and Jevon Phillips, Los Angeles Times Staff Writers
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's term in office has seen just as many triumphs and failures as his entertainment career. As guild strikes, and possibility of strikes, raised Californians' awareness of the state's reliance and relationship with Hollywood, we take a look at a few of the hits and misses of Schwarzenegger's Sacramento and Hollywood lives. MISS: Hollywood separation He tried to reform California's government, but has Schwarzenegger forgotten his roots? The Hollywood guilds were in disarray, with the WGA strike costing the economy billions of dollars, and the possible SAG strike that could have been even more devastating. His 'hands-off' approach was definitely noticed, starting with the whole runaway production issue. Millions of dollars have left the borders, and not a lot was done to either keep it or bring in more during his tenure. The rest of the world is catching up, but Schwarzenegger has done a lot to push away the Hollywood image and probably doesn't want to re-associate. He may not be straddling the fence, not having done a movie while in office, but the problem was that he used enough of his movie puns to keep his past in the spotlight. How about this for a slogan, former governor: "California: Come with me if you want to film!" |

DENVER (AP) -- The Colorado State Patrol has been ordered to change its policies after an administrative law judge found the patrol fostered an anti-gay culture.
The changes were ordered after a former patrol captain admitted he was gay during a polygraph exam. The judge says the questioning was out of line and ordered the patrol to follow its own policies forbidding discrimination.
According to KMGH-TV, the former captain admitted to the judge that he withheld information about his sexual orientation, but the judge ruled that was irrelevant.
A spokesman says the state patrol is reviewing the report.

About the Kasteel Well Summer Program
Each summer course is designed to enhance students' understanding and interest in the topics of European Renaissance arts, history, geography, culture, and civilization along with learning how to reflect upon and critically analyze the medium of digital photography, from a technical, ethical, and aesthetic point of view.
Students attending this five-week program will be registered for 8 credits of undergraduate coursework that includes art history and digital photography components. Classes will be held Monday through Thursday at the castle with some Friday sessions. There are 20 contact hours per week for course lectures and 2–3 daily lecture hours per course within a week. Class contact hours include instruction time during educational excursions and field visits.
A photo collaboration by two of our summer students titled "There Is No Single Metanarrative Anymore" |
Participants applying to this program should have an understanding of basic web design technique, digital camera photography knowledge, and be computer literate.
For additional details about living at the castle and traveling in Europe, visit the Life in the Netherlands section of our website.
Castle Art History Class
Students will study means of artistic expression made in two different time periods. They will visit museums, attend photo exhibits, and interpret modern means of image-making, particularly digital photography.
Students attend a photo exhibit in Amsterdam.

This is an excellent Lego set. The CUUSCO projects are great and unique pieces of work made real by Lego dreamers. I am a huge Back to the Future fan and my son a great Lego fan. When I saw this set I bought 2; one for the collector in me and another for myself and my son to enjoy having. The attention to details is great and the idea of having all 3 versions of the Delorian is great fun.

About Me Parent
As a huge fan of the Back to the Future franchise, this toy is a lot of fun. This lego set has allowed me to introduce Back to the future to my son and building the DeLorean together has been awesome. The only problem is that once built the Delorean can be a bit sensitive to touch as pieces are constantly coming apart. Overall, great fun...

Note: To avoid additional permitting procedures, we are restricting entry into both races to participants ages 18 and over...
Now part of the Carolina Ultra Series (www.carolinaultraseries.com.)
Both races start and finish at the Paddy's Creek section of Lake James State Park.
The 50-miler (actually 54 miles) is approximately 48% pavement, 48% gravel/dirt road, and 4% trail. The trail is a two-mile round trip to the summit of Table Rock and is single track and technical, with roots and rocks under foot. There is approximately 8,000' of total elevation gain. This is a tough course. Be prepared.
The 50K is approximately 33% pavement and 67% gravel road. The total elevation gain is about 3,245' and the maximum elevation is about 3,750'. Please note that even though these are the "Table Rock Ultras," the 50-K does not actually go to the top of Table Rock Mountain. It does, however, have plenty of climb and has a great view of Table Rock from the Wiseman's View Overlook. There is no technical trail on the 50-K course, just some tough hills and awesome views of the gorge along the gravel road.

Believe it or not, there once was a time when Google still had to convince large advertisers that online marketing (and more specifically search engine marketing) was a very cost-effective channel to acquire customers.
Initially Google provided discount to advertising agencies to encourage the adoption of its Adwords platform but in 2006, since this model wasn't really fair towards other advertisers, Google replaced it with the Best Practice Funding (BPF) Programme.

Probably one of the most material and controversial changes for the UK and Irish paid search markets is almost upon us – the relaxation of the trademark protection Google currently affords to brands will cease on 5 May 2008.
As Ivan Izikowitz writes, some analysts and industry experts have taken the cynical view that this is merely a way for Google to stimulate volume and/or increased prices at a time when its revenue growth is slowing.
There is another perspective, however…

According to rumours Victoria Beckham wanted the Spice Girls tour to finish early so she could concentrate on her fashion career.
Does her online PR suggest she's a WAG, musician or fashion icon? What can she do to turn it her way?

True, through sales taxes. I have no problem with taxes on voluntary economic activities.Texas has a government. It... collects taxes.
Hence my argument, from greater slavery to lesser slavery. It is unfortunate that they still subscribe to the misguided policy that income taxes increase government revenue.Not to mention the US federal government.

We are now into part 4 of our blog on preparing for a Triathlon. Our last blog provided a training schedule for a half marathon, we hope this helped you start training. Instead of focusing on the training schedule for a full marathon we are going to give you some tips for training and running a full marathon. Hopefully these tips will inspire you to push yourself to a full marathon.
1. Shoes & Socks - Select the shoes–and the socks–you'll wear in the marathon. The shoes should be relatively lightweight but provide good support, and the socks should be the type you wear in other races. If the shoes aren't your regular training shoes, wear them on at least one 10-mile run at marathon pace. Make sure you are very comfortable in the shoes and socks and if you are not be sure to change them before the marathon and do another practice run.
2. Run a Half Marathon – Don't just break into a full marathon, make sure you run a half before. Aim to run the half-marathon slightly faster than your marathon goal pace. If you can't find a tune-up race, recruit friends to accompany you on a long run, with the last several miles faster than marathon pace.
3. Drink on the Run - Make sure you stay hydrated and remember that sports drinks do triple duty when compared with water by providing fluid, carbohydrates, and electrolytes, the most important being sodium. Find out how often your marathon will have aid stations, and practice drinking at that rate. If you don't run with fluids, place bottles along your training route. It's important to do this so you are prepared for drinking during the real race.
4. Pick the right outfit - Once you've picked your marathon outfit, make sure it doesn't irritate your skin. It's a good idea to do a practice run with your outfit on, including shirt, shorts, socks, etc… being comfortable will help your marathon performance.
5. Clock Work – If possible, run at the same time of day as the start of your marathon. This way, your body's rhythms–including the all-important bathroom routine–will be in sync with marathon needs come race day. The more times you can do this, the better, but shoot for at least the last three days before the race.
Good luck running a full marathon and accomplishing your health and wellness goals.

Arrive Venice any time. As your fellow travellers are arriving throughout the day, there are no planned activities, so check-in to the hotel (check-in time is approx 3pm) and enjoy the city. In the evening meet your fellow group members at 6pm to go over the details of your trip. Check the notice boards or ask at reception for the exact location of this group meeting. After the meeting, you can head out for a meal at a local restaurant with the group (optional). Please make every effort to arrive on time for this important group meeting. If you are delayed please telephone or send a message to the contact numbers in your trip notes. Your Tour Leader will leave you a message at the front desk.
Set out with your CEO on an orientation walk of Venice to appreciate the unique nature of this city on water. You will see plenty of people in Carnevale costume around and we will have the chance to participate in some of the street events which accompany Carnevale (for instance, stalls with local food and wine produce, cooking demonstrations, Carnival games). We will also visit St Mark's Basilica. On Day 3 we take a day trip by vaporetto to the islands. There is Murano, famous for its unrivalled glass-blowing skills; Burano, the archetypal sleepy fishing village with its startlingly bright painted houses; and Torcello, home to the ancient Basilica with remarkable Byzantime mosaics. Day 4 is our final day in Venice and we make the most of the opportunity to join in the Carnival spirit by mingling with the crowds and soaking up the atmosphere. Don't forget your camera, Carnival is a photographer's dream! We will finish off this final day with a Venetian feast to end our short but sweet Carnevale experience in style.
Depart at any time.

Commentary: Brother billionaires
resize text | Tweet |
That's important, because so far, activists have been able to advance a fairly compelling argument that biotech has been deployed solely to fatten the coffers of agri-business. If this Mexican initiative succeeds in producing GM varieties of wheat and corn that demonstrate bona fide improvements in yield, that argument will be quashed once and for all.
And that would be a good thing, seeing as how even with billionaires funding the cause, the odds of global agriculture successfully feeding another three or four billion people by mid-century remain awfully long. Lowering those odds will take a lot more than big bucks to move the needle.
The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Dan Murphy, a veteran food-industry journalist and commentator.

Hi, lotsofwins, I am a little bit confused here. TX midday Pick4 number today was 4414 what number should I play for two weeks? In some part of this thread I read that you no longer need the birthday information, which I prefer, but on the previous reply I understand you say you need it. What is correct, and where did I miss something? Does the winning number (or you might call it luck) go by individuals or by State? If you can work with only the 4414 number to give me another one to play, that will be awesome and I will appreciate it. Thanks.
Good Luck to All

The IHAS Register of Injectable Cosmetic Providers was formally launched to the industry on 13 April 2010. As the number of registered, quality-marked providers builds up, so preparations are underway for the start of the major public awareness campaign in July.
The Quality Assurance Mark will bring clear commercial advantage to those who display it. With its vigorous screening process, the IHAS Register of Injectable Cosmetic Providers will assure the public of the quality of providers displaying the quality mark. Successful providers will be enrolled on the web-based Register and, within 10 days of applying, will be available for the public to see. Most of the main providers in the UK will complete registration shortly, including industry leaders The Harley Medical Group, Transform and Sk:n.
In July 2010 a major public awareness campaign and a publicity drive will raise the profile of the scheme amongst consumers. It will encourage any potential patient to select their practitioner only from those that are registered with the scheme.
Already the quality assurance logo is becoming better known in the industry and. specialist health consumer communications agency, RPA, has been retained to run the campaign to raise awareness of it amongst the public.
A large number of applications for the Quality Mark are already being processed and the IHAS urges all of those who provide injectable cosmetic treatments to join the register if they are eligible, well in advance of the July consumer launch.
Sally Taber advises those providers who have not yet made a move to "check-out the website today, so that you are sure of being included on it when it is launched to consumers in July".
The registration scheme, and the associated standards and training required of registered providers, was created at the request of the Department of Health which has provided funding to support it development. All funds generated will be reinvested into the continual management and updating of the register.

Happy Sunday! Later on today I'll be drawing the names of the three Foodies who will win $50 from Building Blocks Vitamins, so please check back this evening for that!
Now...on to week three!
The Week Three prize
This week's prize is sponsored by Click Espresso Protein. Many of you may have heard of Click but it's NOTHING like experiencing the real thing! This delicious protein drink comes in both mocha and vanilla, can be made hot or cold and trust me...it will revolutionize how you think protein should taste! For new-newbies, if you win this one, you might want to hang onto your prize until you are cleared for caffeine consumption, but either way here's what THREE LUCKY FOODIES will win:
- A canister of Click Mocha
- A canister of Click Vanilla Latte
How to Pledge
In case you don't remember how to pledge (or if you are joining us for the first time this week - welcome!) there are three ways to submit your pledge. Whichever way you choose, your pledge MUST be in by 12 p.m. (EST) tomorrow (Monday, February 13)!!! No exceptions!
- Leave your pledge as a comment on this blog post. NOTE: Please leave at least your first name and last initial in the blog comment with your pledge so you can identify yourself on the pledge list AND so I can identify you if you win the contest! (Also if you used a different name last week you might want to let me know what that was if you want to get credit for the grand prize drawing).
- You may also pledge on Twitter by tweeting the following. "This week I'm taking the @BariatricFoodie Pledge to [insert goal]. http://bit.ly/Apolxn"
- You may pledge on Facebook by following these steps:
- Go to the Bariatric Foodie Wall and post "This week, I am taking the Bariatric Foodie Pledge to [insert your goal]. To learn how YOU can win prizes for setting goals, visit http://www.bariatricfoodie.com/." Make sure you get all of that statement on there.
- After you've posted that to the BF wall, hit the RESHARE link to share it to your wall. If you don't see a reshare link on your post, you can simply share your pledge as your status. PLEASE remember to include the link to the blog!!!
- NOTE: Do NOT post your pledge as a response to the Facebook blog post announcement as I can't keep track of those. Post it as it's own post on the Bariatric Foodie Wall, then reshare it. Thanks!
After You Pledge
When the list comes out, check to make sure I have you down. If not, you have until noon on Tuesday to petition yourself onto the list before it closes for the week. (Note: I did end up missing a few people last week for various reasons. It is NOT a conspiracy or anything personal. I am one human running this contest and unfortunately sometimes I miss stuff so please stay on top of me if you feel like I've missed you!)
Again, THANK YOU to Click Espresso Protein for sponsoring this week's pledge. Check out their page by clicking the ad in the right menu bar. Since the prize is in the form of a gift certificate, it might be good to browse the site to see what you might like to order.
