The Pelican State Youth Movement's Multi-Sports Camp will be held Thursday-Saturday, June 28-30 at Bastrop High. Camp times will be 8 a.m.-2 p.m. Thursday and Friday and from 8 a.m.-noon Saturday. Campers will receive instruction in basketball, soccer and golf.
Following the closure of the International Paper mill in Bastrop, the event's chief sponsor, the camp was replaced by a picnic for two years. Last year, the camp was revived with youngsters receiving instruction in basketball, soccer and track.
Founded by Kenny Natt and members of Bastrop High's 1974-75 state championship basketball team, the first camp was held in 2004. Natt, a former NBA player and head coach, is now head of India's national team. Natt founded the camp in memory of Ms. Inez Grant, a longtime P.E. teacher in the Morehouse Parish School system.
Though other sports have been added over the years, basketball remains the focal point of the camp.
"The kids around here aren't being taught fundamentals," said Robinson, who went on to a stellar career at the University of Arkansas at Monticello after helping the Rams to the state title as a senior. "When kids get to high school, it's time for them to start learning how to play basketball. They should already have the fundamentals down. It's not fair to our high school coaches to have to teach fundamentals."
The camp is open to students ages 8-17 (campers must be enrolled in school) at a cost of $30. Lunch is included in the fee. Registration is being conducted online at www.pelicanstateyouth.org and at the Bastrop Parks & Recration Dept., located in Room 224 of the City Hall Complex. All registration forms must be signed by a parent or legal guardian. Registration deadline is Tuesday, June 26, at 4 p.m.

What Yogurts Can You Eat on the Dukan Diet
Permitted Protein Yogurts
You can eat both ordinary and Greek yogurt as a permitted dairy protein but you can't eat any ordinary or Greek yogurt as they all don't meet the guidelines provided by Dr Dukan.
The yogurts should fat free whenever possible but if you are unable to get fat free you can use products with up to 2% fat. To show why the fat content matters I've provided the nutritional information for all three types of Fage Greek yogurt in the table below:
Fage Greek Yogurts |
Per Serving: 1 Cup (227g) |
Calories |
Calories from fat |
Saturated fat (Total fat) |

Classic |
310 |
210 |
18g (23g) |
35mg |
60mg |
7g |
18g |
If the Dukan Diet was just a high protein, low carb diet you would be able to eat the Classic Greek yogurt but as you can see the calorie content of the Classic is much higher and it provides less protein. The Dukan Diet is a high protein, low fat, low carb diet but it is also a low sugar diet so not only should your yogurt have 2% or less fat they should also have no added sugar, fruit puree, fruit pieces or fruit juice. If you can't find fat free yogurts try to adjust for this by eating a little less.
It is quite difficult to find any flavored yogurt which meets these rules as most contain a small amount of added sugar but it isn't always easy to see the sugar in the ingredients. The added ingredient you are looking to avoid in yogurts and other foods are
- Syrup
- Sucrose
- Raw sugar
- Molasses
- Malt syrup
- Maltose
- Invert sugar
- Honey
- High-fructose corn syrup
- Glucose
- Fructose
- Evaporated cane juice
- Dextrose
- Crystalline fructose
- Corn syrup
- Corn sweetener
- Cane sugar
- Cane crystals
- Brown sugar
- Agave nectar
To get around the problem of not being able to find I buy plain yogurts and then sweeten and flavor them myself.
Tolerated Yogurts
In Cruise Phase you can add up to two tolerated items each day to your diet and one of these tolerated items is a fruit yogurt which has added fruit. You could if you wish have fruit yogurt for both your tolerated items. The yogurts still need to be 2% fat or less with no added sugar.
I've never found any yogurts which meet these criteria so again I make my own but this isn't a Dukan approved adaptation . I will finely chop a few soft fruits and either sprinkle them on top of my yogurt or mix them in. I have a rule of thumb to add around 2 g of carbs – which is about
- 10 blueberries
- 9 raspberries
- 4 small strawberries

Soft Budget Constraints: An Analysis Based on a Survey of Chinese Township Enterprises
The reduced influence of soft budget constrints is often seen as an explanation for the successful growth of China's non-state sector. Views differ, however, as to whether collectively owned rural enterprise are in fact subject to hard financial discipline. This paper reports an inquiry into the issue. The study examines the financial behaviour of REs, particularly that of loss-making enterprises, by scrutinising a set of survey data of 630 rural enterprises in Sichuan and Zhejiang (China), Being primarily explorative and conceptual in nature, our study reveals that soft budget constraints can still be observed to be enjoyed by many rural enterprises, in particular among those collectively owned. As the budget constraints do appear to become more rigid, however, enterprises look for other opportunities to ease the financial dixcipline forced upon them by the market and by increasingly illiquid local governments. Accumulating inter-enterprise arrears, as well as withholding wage payments, are identified as means frequently used towards this end by REs in transitional Chinese economy.

Fact of the matter is that he just isn't Test class. I know the selectors have messed him around but until he makes it into the Test side and cements his spot, then he shouldn't be considered as a captain or anything. Fair enough he should be in the ODI side, and him and Yuvraj make a very formidable off-side field.

Based on what ? He averages 63 over his last 5 tests.....
Unless India give him a continous run of tests to prove himself, instead of using him as a stop-gap measure, we will not know for certainty whether he is test class or not.
I think he has the potential to be a good batsman at test level. He may not be outrageously talented, but he has an excellent work ethic and unlike many other Indian players, he is good under pressure.....some of his best knocks in tests have come against good bowling attacks with his team in a tight corner.
No doubt Dicko to come on here and give some claptrap in 5,4,3.....
Zinedine Zidane is the greatest footballer ever !
Richard Dickinson - you little beauty !!!!
I don't think anyone can categorically state Yuvraj is a better option as test batsman than Kaif yet. He may be in the selector's favour, but when I look at Yuvraj's high test scores compared to Kaif's, its fairly obvious that one player scored them in pressure situations and the other didn't.
"I am very happy and it will allow me to have lot more rice."
Eoin Morgan on being given a rice cooker for being Man of the Match in a Dhaka Premier Division game.
I put it down to the lack of meat in their diet...
True, it is different but I think it's a factor in determining whether he is Test class or not. Kaif's only Test century came in a team total of 588/8 dec against a pretty mediocre attack, indicating the track was pretty easy to bat on and runs weren't hard to come by. His 91 was made against a good bowling attack, but once again runs in that Test weren't hard to come by for the batsman.
I would prefer Yuvraj to Kaif in the Indian test lineup, and easily so in the ODI team. His two centuries were scored in difficult conditions against some pretty decent bowling attacks, both his 112 and 122 have come in low team totals (287 and 265) which shows how difficult it was to face that attack and score runs, even though Pakistan in both games were able to post big totals.
ODI team is obvious, Yuvraj is one of the best in world cricket in that form.
In tests, its really a pick 'em.
This knock by Kaif is IMO better than anything Yuvraj has produced at test level.
Ironically, it resulted in him being dropped the next game.
He also hit two half-centuries against Australia in 2004 which were back to the wall knocks.
Don't get me wrong, Yuvraj has hit some good knocks too. That being said, I don't rate his 122 vs. Pak in 2006 that highly. The pitch had flattened out immensely, and it was some Shoaib and Asif magic (and just ordinary batting) that resulted in India capitulating. It was still a good counter-attacking knock, but when Ganguly and Dhoni fell, he just played hit shots in what was a lost cause.
His 112 vs. Pak in 2004 was class on a greentop. He also hit a couple of excellent 70s vs. Sri Lanka in 2005, and he's obviously part of the future of the Indian test batting line-up, but I think my overall point is its harsh to deem Kaif as not test class, yet say Yuvraj is, when his record is not that much better, and he hasn't been screwed by the selectors like Kaif has been.
Also, picking between Kaif and Yuvraj depends a lot on team composition. Having Yuvraj and Dhoni at 6 & 7 can be awesome when the top 4 have done their job, and they have liberty to attack. However if India are 98-4, its perhaps not quite Yuvraj's domain just yet.
I can understand why Yuvraj would be selected ahead of Kaif at this moment. Not only have his ODI excellence in recent times been a reason, but with Jaffer, Dravid, Tendulkar, Laxman and now even Ganguly becoming grafters rather than the stroke-makers they used to be (talking about Tendulkar, Laxman and Ganguly here), then Yuvraj fits the team composition nicely. I'd like him to improve his record in the next 12-24 months though.
I'm a fan of both anyway, just don't think its fair to write off Kaif just yet.
Not going to dispute that at all, Yuvraj is miles ahead of Kaif as an ODI cricket.
Disagree regarding that knock, while it was a courageous innings I don't think the attack was of the same quality as in Yuvraj's innings of 112. An inexperienced Panesar and Harmison away from home just isn't as good as Akhtar, Gul and Kaneria with Sami being the only noticable weak link. The fact that Yuvraj scored a much higher percentage of his team's runs also is quite significant, with only one other person going past 40 while in Kaif's knock, three other players were able to make it to 40. Yuvraj's innings was also supremely counter-attacking, coming off only 129 balls.
I don't rate his 64 very highly, but his 55 in his next innings was a very good one.
Another very good counter-attacking innings against a better attack than his 112 was blasted against. Same story though, he made runs when nobody else could and contributed significantly to the team's total.
As far as I can see, Yuvraj is much more Test class than Kaif is although he had a pretty poor series against England and an even worse one against the West Indies. I know that Kaif has been screwed around by the selectors and been made a stop gap measure on a few occasions, but good players should be able to perform. Considering he has played 4 of his 13 Test's against Sri Lanka, I am suprised he hasn't scored more runs.
Yuvraj is an attacking player by nature, his two centuries in Test's have shown this. But he did come in at 94-4 and scored his first Test ton suggests that he can perform under pressure and rescue his side from a dangerous position. 177-5 is also a difficult time to come in, with the bowlers having the upper hand yet he still managed to ton up there as well.
Yuvraj definately does compliment the grafters at the top of the innings as you mentioned which is all the more reason for his conclusion. A team has to be able to attack in the modern Test arena, and with Tendulkar woefully short of Test form then I can't see India's batting lineup (Sehwag and Dhoni excluded) being able to go after the bowling and really put the pressure back on the fielding side.
I was by no means intending to write Kaif off, but making it quite clear that Yuvraj is the superior Test player and is a better option for when one of the current middle order batsman is dropped or retires.

I'm thinking of installing a strut tower brace on my '02 PT. Any recommendations?
Freedom Design Is the best buy for the buck. Not to mention it's Stainless steel ( looks great ) too
Greg Gavencky The New Jersey Cruisers www.njcruisers.com |
........ ...just CREWZIN along! ® . . . PT Cruiser Links Moderator 2000 PT. Original Owner, 123,000 miles MY technical suggestions are given in GOOD FAITH without total guarantee, if in doubt go to a garage. Cruiser Of The Month (COTM) May, 2015. Visit My Home Page www.CREWZIN.com |
The Freedom Design will fit both the automatic and 5-speed without any adjustments (just bolt-in), modifications, or relocation of the clutch reservoir container. Don't let the lower price fool you, it is an excellent tower strut bar.
The Race and Street design is another good one, just need to check if the adjustments and clearances are correct before closing your hood. If it sits too high it may bend your hood. Read this guide at PTDIY: http://www.ptdoityourself.net/ptswaybarguide.html . PT-Tuning (PTuning is a different company) has a nice design out, http://www.pt-tuning.com/performance...hockBrace.html , but it is (was) recommended if you have a vanity cover, to remove it. If you want to keep the vanity cover, some have added padding and/or grind the spot(s) on the vanity cover where it hits. They may have changed/improved the original design since the last time I visited their shop to add more clearance for the vanity cover, but from what I've seen, the clearances were already tight, especially on a stock hood with the OEM hood blanket and window washer nozzles. Pro-Felge, http://www.cruisertuning.de/ , also makes a nice strut bar, but the current exchange rate (euros to dollars) may be a bit high at the moment. Shipping rates are reasonable. APC strut bar is one to avoid, poor fitting and has clearance and adjustment problems that require modifications to their strut bar.

Reinsurance Group Falls as Australia Claims Fuel Loss
Megan HickeyReinsurance Group of America Inc., the reinsurer formerly owned by MetLife Inc. fell the most since October as it swung to a loss on higher-than-expected costs from disability coverage in Australia.
Reinsurance Group dropped 7.3 percent to 67.95 at 4:15 p.m. in New York. The Chesterfield, Missouri-based company has climbed 27 percent this year.
The second-quarter net loss was $49.6 million, compared with profit of $141.1 million a year earlier, the company said in a statement yesterday. Results included costs of $184 million to increase claims liabilities in Australia. The company had previously said results would be posted on July 25.
"The charge was particularly surprising and disappointing given management's expectation from the May investor day that Australia would post a modest profit in 2013," Keefe, Bruyette and Woods analysts led by Jeffrey Schuman said in a research note today. They cut their price target to $74 a share from $81.
Chief Executive Officer Greig Woodring said the company would be "extremely selective" in the Australia group market as it works with insurers to assess the risks. Reinsurers help primary carriers shoulder losses.
"We have just completed a comprehensive claims analysis within the last week, and that analysis indicates a more dramatic deterioration than we previously anticipated," Woodring said in the statement. "The current environment makes it very difficult to price new business with any degree of confidence."

Over the weekend I was contacted by Sara Snow who wants to show my work on her upcoming show on CNN! Needless to say, I was thrilled to have the opportunity to show them on television. Its not every day that one gets to show one's craftsmanship to such a large audience.
It was really nice to have someone like Sara Snow to show them as well, since she's been a huge supporter and advocate for green and sustainable practices. This philosophy is something I work hard to incorporate into my products as well.
On that note, look for an upcoming article on a simple composter you can build in an afternoon and use to get some great, free compost for your garden!
I have been playing with my new Grizzly bandsaw this weekend and turned out a new product. Well, almost... I had salvaged a beautiful piece of walnut when visiting my family in my home state of Vermont. It has a wonderful creamy dark chocolate color with a few lighters swirls of milk chocolate in it. After truing an edge with my trusty No. 4 hand plane and slicing off a slab, I got down to work in making it into something.
I came up with a very simple and elegant case for the newest iPod Nano. It currently doesn't have the tell-tale dual inlay stripes in it like my other cases. Frankly, I'm not sure it needs to. I willing to give my readers a chance to sound off and tell me what they think. Just answer the poll question to the right (see related photos below). You can also look forward to a give-away for one of the first iPod Nano cases too! Leave a comment (by clicking on te comments link under the title of this blog entry) if you'd like to add some comments above and beyond the vote!
The walnut works well and with the extra care I gave the finish, it came out silky smooth that makes it quite welcoming in the hand.

Welcome for schools' broadband roll-out
Minister for Public Transport and Commuter Affairs Alan Kelly has welcomed the announcement by the Minister for Communications, Energy & Natural Resources, Pat Rabbitte and the Minister for Education and Skills, Ruairí Quinn that every second level school in Ireland will have access to 100Mbp/s connectivity by the beginning of the 2014/2015 school year.
The Ministers made this statement as they launched the final stage of the national roll-out of the 100Mbp/s broadband connectivity to all second-level schools.
With high speed broadband already installed in 516 schools through the project, the announcement details a further 270 schools to be connected across nine southern counties (Carlow, Cork, Kerry, Kilkenny, Limerick, Tipperary, Waterford, Wexford and Wicklow) throughout 2014.
The Government made a commitment in the Programme for Government to incorporate ICT in teaching and learning across the curriculum and this investment in connectivity is a cornerstone in making that a reality.
Minister Kelly said that he is delighted that by the start of the 2014/2015 school year every second level school in Tipperary will have access to high speed internet.
Minister Kelly added - "Since the rollout began, we have seen that the educational experience is enriched, engagement is better and that autonomous learning and enquiry is facilitated through the innovative use of technology."

Giveaway: Two Pairs of Tickets to Tomorrow Night's Rural Alberta Advantage Show at The Cavern
In this week's paper, Annie Zaleski extols the virtues of the Toronto-based Rural Alberta Advantage, comparing the three-piece to everyone from Yo La Tengo to The Mountain Goats and Arcade Fire to Neutral Milk Hotel. Heady company indeed. Continues my esteemed colleague from St. Louis:
As might be expected from their band's name, the members of the Rural Alberta Advantage grew up in the Canadian province of Alberta. What the trio cultivated from such a chilly (and at times isolated) existence is an un-selfconscious sound, one that's devoid of artifice or trends. Hometowns, the Toronto band's 2008 debut, is an amalgam of stomping campfire folk, heartworn indie rock and frosty alt-country. Continue reading...
Earlier this year, the band's 2008 full-length debut, Hometowns, was re-released by Saddle Creek Records. And with that move has come an increased profile--including the above music video (the band's first ever, for what it's worth) for "Drain The Blood," which made its premiere on Pitchfork earlier this week.
It all adds up to a band on the rise--which is why we're pleaed that the folks at Spune Productions have passed along two pairs of tickets for us to hand out to some DC9 readers looking to get into tomorrow night's show for free. Want the tickets? Shoot me an email right now with the words "Go Oilers!" in the subject line. First two people to do so each win a pair of tickets. Good luck!

~ Saturday Night Project ~
" After "
" Before "
Ok, so I have to admit it has been a while since I have done anything, little own a project to blog about. I have looked at this large canvas for weeks-sitting in the hallway. What to do, what to paint. It is a large one that you can get at any Michaels, and for 40-50% off depending on the sales and their coupons. So a large $20.00 canvas that began so dull can actually look quite fantastic if you have the inspiration- a photo (rubber stamp in my case), a projector, and a black paint pen. Paint the background any color ( I used my furniture paint) and begin........

Let's Eliminate The "Dictator Dividend" | Gen. McCaffrey Reports on Iraq |
by Christopher Chantrill
May 03, 2006 at 9:26 pm
FOR SOME TIME the French and the Germans have felt that they needed to get together to smooth over the differences they have had over the years. What better way than to write a high-school textbook together?
And what better way to cement Franco-German friendship than to fill the book with anti-American bile?
The textbook, published today, was ordered in 2003 by President Chirac of France and Gerhard Schröder, then Chancellor in Germany, according to Adam Sage in the London Times. Starting in 1945, the history soon gets to work on
the Cold War, where the US and the USSR are presented as broadly equivalent in moral terms.
Both were engaged in an arms race described as the balance of terror and both sought to impose themselves by an omnipresent propaganda that involved gross exaggerations and simplifications.
Actually the Germans, bless their hearts, didnt really like all this Yank-bashing. They tried to tone things down a bit.
German historians had insisted upon softening the message with sentences such as: Some people, notably in Germany, consider the US to be a power which defends democracy in a world where the UN is not always able or willing to do it.
But not those those blood-curdling Gaulish warriors! They wouldnt write a mamby-pamby sentence like that.
Still theres a bright side to all the America-bashing. The next volume in the book deals with the 18th century up to 1945, during which the French spent a lot of time marching their armies through GermanyFrench-occupied Germany, as they call it in The Brothers Grimm. And they can end Volume II with the lovely spectacle of the French settling down contentedly to Nazi occupation after the shameful defeat of quarante.
Hey, it could have happened to anyone.

Msgr. William Lynn. Credit: Metro file photo
As previously pledged, the office of district attorney Seth Williams filed an appeal Monday to the state Supreme Court asking them to re-convict Msgr. William Lynn on child endangerment charges.
Lynn, 62, was released Dec. 26 after a three-judge appeals court reversed his 2012 conviction.
The appeals panel ruled that child endangerment laws were not applicable to a supervisor like Lynn until the state legislature changed those laws to include supervisors in 2007. The conduct for which Lynn was convicted occurred in 1998.
The appeals papers from the D.A.'s office argue legally that child endangerment statutes should not have been read as a "strict construction."
The appeal also details what they say was Lynn's knowledge of past molestations of Father Edward Avery, his decision to return him to a Philadelphia parish rectory near a grade school over a therapist's concerns, and Avery's reported molestation at that parish.
Lynn sent Avery to Saint John Vianney, an Archdiocese-operated mental health facility, in 1992, after a male reported that he had been molested by Avery in the late 70s, according to appeals paper.
Prosecutors say that Lynn concealed the nature of Avery's activities in a referral letter, reportedly only saying that he took a minor to a place that served alcohol and had been drinking.
"The therapist reported 'concerns about the existence of other victims,' and the facility recommended that as part of 'continued outpatient treatment' Avery be placed in an assignment 'excluding adolescents,'" the papers state.
However, the papers claim Lynn then assigned Avery to live at St. Jerome's Parish, where Avery encountered a 10-year-old boy who had previously been molested by Father Charles Englehardt.
The papers state that in 1999 Avery told the child he knew about his "sessions" with Englehardt and would begin the same with the child; and a week later told the child their "sessions would begin," led the child to a storage room, played music, and forced the child to do a "striptease" while "watching with an 'eerie smile.'"
Avery reportedly then told the child that "this was what god wants" and that it was "time to become a man," then molested the child, the appeal states.
Avery was previously sentenced to two-and-a-half to five years in prison for the molestation.
Lynn was sentenced to three to six years in prison for child endangerment and had served 18 months before being released from prison earlier this month.
Lynn is currently free on bail, was required to surrender his passport and is under court order to wear a GPS-monitoring bracelet while this appeal is pending.

TORRETTA, Juan P.; MEDAN, Diego; ROIG ALSINA, Arturo y MONTALDO, Norberto H.. Diurnal floral visitors of sunflower (Helianthus annuus, Asterales: Asteraceae) in Argentina. Rev. Soc. Entomol. Argent. [online]. 2010, vol.69, n.1-2, pp. 17-32. ISSN 1851-7471.
Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is an important oilseed crop in Argentina. During three agricultural years, the diversity and abundance of diurnal floral visitors of sunflower heads were determined in eight sites spanning much of this crop's cultivation area in Argentina. Seventysix morpho-species of floral visitors, belonging to eight orders, were captured on sunflower. The principal order was Hymenoptera, with 37 species or morpho-species, of which 32 were bees (Apoidea). The most represented bee families were Apidae (13), Megachilidae (11) and Halictidae (7). The domestic bee (Apis mellifera L.) accounted for 93% of the visits. Floral visitor composition did not show an identifiable variation pattern either throughout the day or with respect to the distance to the edge of the crop, but varied among sites. It is concluded that the domestic bee is the main sunflower pollinator in Argentina, although several native bee species (Melissodes tintinnans (Holmberg), M. rufithorax Brèthes, Melissoptila tandilensis Holmberg, and Megachile spp.) could be considered as potential crop pollinators.

Many common household products contain chemicals that can cause injury or death if they are not handled, stored, or used properly.
Some of the household products that contain hazardous chemicals are oven cleaners, tile cleaners, toilet-bowl cleaners, liquid drain openers, antifreeze, chrome-wheel cleaners, rust removers, gasoline, motor oil, lead paint, turpentine, lacquer thinner, and muriatic acid.
The following safety precautions can help keep you and your family safe.
Follow these safety precautions:
Carefully read the ingredient list of any product or chemical you use. The label can also tell you how to use the proper protective equipment, how to handle the chemicals, and how to respond to emergencies. The label will tell you if the substance is flammable, corrosive, or may cause cancer. It will also state whether you should use eye protection, gloves, or other equipment.
Purchase the proper personal protective equipment like gloves or goggles. Clean and care for them properly.
Be aware to the hazardous materials you come in contact with. Learn about the specific characteristics and dangers.
Follow safe procedures when you handle hazardous material. Don't take shortcuts.
Handle, store, and get rid of hazardous materials safely and according to approved procedures. Never pour them down sewers or drains.
Don't mix or combine hazardous materials unless you know you can do so safely. Many products can cause violent reactions or release poisonous fumes when combined.
Transferring flammable liquids like gasoline, from 1 container to another can make static electricity that could ignite the fumes.
Always carry chemicals in approved containers.
Always wash your hands after using any unsafe material.
Store materials properly, as directed on their labels. Flammable chemicals should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat and sunlight. Some chemicals like acids must be stored separately from each other.
Exposure to hazardous materials can cause:
Trauma (as in explosion)

To earn a Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographer (RDMS) credential with a BR specialty, you must pass the Sonography Principles & Instrumentation (SPI) examination and the BR examination within five years. After passing the SPI examination, you can earn additional credentials without having to retake the SPI examination, provided you maintain active status.You must wait 60 days before you can retake the BR examination if you do not pass it however, you are welcome to reapply after 3 days. Overview BR Examination Overview The BR examination assesses the knowledge, skills and abilities in the areas of normal breast as well as breast abnormalities that are found with screening or diagnostic mammography.We periodically conduct a BR Job Task Analysis (JTA) and update the BR examination to reflect the frequency and importance of BR tasks being performed by Sonography Professionals. The latest BR JTA was conducted in 2011. Click to view the 2011 BR JTA Results. Question Format & Duration The BR examination is three hours and contains 170 multiple-choice questions, which include hotspot questions.

Impartiality ARDMS functions under policies intended to demonstrate impartiality, high ethical standards, and validity of its certification assessments. ARDMS does not restrict Applicants, Candidates, or becoming a Registrant based on limiting conditions, such as membership of an association or professional society of any organization.

If you do not complete both examinations within the five-year period, you must retake the examination previously passed. The five-year rule is based on the calendar year (January 1 through December 31). The five-year period begins the day you pass the first examination, and it includes any time that remains in that year plus the next five years. For example, a candidate who passed the first ARDMS examination on June 6, 2010, is required to pass the second examination by December 31, 2015.

Review Our Tips for Examination Day Success After all of your diligent preparation and hours spent studying, here are a few valuable tips to help make your examination day a success: • Double check that you know where the test center is before examination day and give yourself plenty of time to get there. Remember, you MUST arrive and register at least 30 minutes before the examination begins. • Get a good night's sleep before you take your examination. Being well rested and relaxed when you take your examination will help you concentrate. • Bring one form of current and valid identification that complies with the test center identification requirements. • Travel light. The only thing you can bring into the testing room is you. You can store your personal belongings — your car keys, watch, smartphone, purse, backpack, etc. — in lockers at the test center. The following items are not allowed in test centers: study materials, food, drink, visitors/guests, pets and children. • Request a white board if you plan to jot down notes during the examination. Test centers are using white boards (rather than paper) in an effort to "go green." Good luck! Use Study Materials Even though we offer practice examinations and sample questions, we do not offer study materials for our examinations – but our sister organizations do. You can find materials at: • Society of Diagnostic Medical Sonography • American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine • Society for Vascular Ultrasound • American Society of Echocardiography Learn about Advanced Item Type Preparation Questions The BR examination features Advanced Item Type questions, which assess and measure your practical sonography skills. They include hotspot questions in which you will receive questions about individual images; you will use the cursor to mark the correct answer directly on the image. Watch ARDMS Presents: How to Answer a Hotspot Question. Scoring How is the BR Examination Scored? The BR examination evaluates mammography knowledge and skills you must demonstrate as a Sonography Professional. The primary test result is a PASS or FAIL decision. In addition, you will receive a scaled score, ranging from 300 to 700. A scaled score of 555 is required to pass all ARDMS examinations. The scaled score is not a percentage of correct answers, nor is it built on a "curve" where a certain percentage of scores would pass and a certain percentage would fail. To learn more, visit Notification of Results and Scoring. How do I get my BR Score Report? You can receive a score report at the test center once you complete the examination. The Pass or Fail results will then be posted to your secure MY ARDMS account within the next week. Candidates receiving a confirmed passing score on all required examinations and meeting all other requirements will be awarded a certification, effective the date the final examination was taken. For information on the ARDMS' scoring methods, visit Notification of Results and Scoring. Candidates who do not pass are invited to re-apply. School Report When submitting your ARDMS application, you consent to us releasing your examination results to your educational program. Program Directors can receive a School Report for current programs and programs completed in the past three years. To learn more, visit School Reports. Score Verification You can request a score verification for a $35 USD fee, payable by check, money order or credit card. Score verification ensures that the computer counted the correct and incorrect answers appropriately, but it does not review the questions and answers. You must submit the completed Exam Score Verification Form within 30 days of having taken the examination in question. The Exam Score Verification Form will be returned if incomplete, unsigned or unpaid. When deciding whether to have your score verified, please consider that ARDMS examinations are scored electronically with a high degree of accuracy, and it is unlikely that verification will alter your original score.

Bad Missfire
My R33 GTR has been missfiring badly recently and i've had it in to 2 garages but niether have been able to diagnose the problem. The Plugs and coils have been checked and are (apparently) ok and the battery is fine. It only does it if i put my foot down more than half way and seems worse as the care gets warmer. Is it possible to book it in at Abby? Is that what eveyone would recommend? Any ideas on what it could be? I'm stumped!! Would be very gratefull for any advice. Cheers, P.S. Where is Abby?? I'm in Lincoln!

Scarlett Johansson and Penelope Cruz will have "lesbian sex" in Woody Allen's upcoming film Vicky Cristina Barcelona.
A source claims, "It is extremely erotic. People will be blown away and even shocked. Penelope and Scarlett go at it in a red-tinted photography dark room, and the whole scene will leave the audience gasping."
Both actresses will even have a threesome in the film. The movie is about two American tourists that spend a hot summer in Spain. They meet an eclectic artist and his sexy wife, and all become "sexually entangled." Throw water on the fire!
Take a sneak peek!

To what degree can you defy disobey somebody
This teacher told this kid to tell her his name. The kid walked away. Woman went to the office and shit happened.
I think for school you abide by rules that may violate your freedom? Just curious cuz I'm going to bark lake for summer camp and don't want to go swimming or kayaking. |

Well you don't have to do what they say since you paid for camp. But I don't think your parents would be happy if they call. Of course they can also kick you out of camp.
Unless you can get your parents to excuse you from those activities. |

Are you just planning to refuse to kayak and swim or doing more things?
If it's just that then just tell your counselors that you do not want to participate instead of being confrontational. Or as I suggested get your parents to excuse you. Personally I don't get in trouble with teachers. Usually what they asking are reasonable, and I comply. I had no real reason to be confrontational. |

Kayaking is an awesome past time/sport. I have done it in the atlantic through caves and near whales. Most excellent experience.
Do you have a reason why you wont swim. Is it body issues? IF so, i say suck it up buttercup. Lots of fat people out there. |

the teacher isn't the issue. The issue is you. You have to really figure out why you don't want to do the things that you are being asked to do. Once you figure that out and you really think about it, it might not be so hard to step out of your normal comfort level and try something new. Be brave young man!!! Be Brave! You'll be amazed by the results. |

Let me tell you something, I worked at a summer camp for YEARS. I did all the activities when I was younger as a camper but there were obviously some I did not like (canoeing being primary, arts and crafts being 2nd). After many years I've actually mastered canoeing (I have my Orca D or whatever the highest level is, I don't care). It is now one of my favorite skills because it allows me to go on canoe trips with my buddies and I can do whitewater and all that! You never know what will be useful and you never know what you will like. This is an opportunity to learn something and get acquianted. When I worked at the camp when I was older, all I would talk about is how I wish I got to do all the activities there now (even arts and crafts!) because you NEVER get those kind of free opportunities again. Take advantage of your time! You only get so much. |

th3answ3r, you sound a bit like I did when I was younger. I didn't want to do anything. For me, it was out of fear, shyness, and the feeling that everyone else was better than me (so I'd always feel like a failure).
Do yourself a favour and get out of that habit NOW. Do things that scare you, do new things that you may think you're not interested in. Just DO things in general. Otherwise, you'll kick yourself when you're older. I'm still going back and trying all the things I passed on when I was younger. The only real way to see what you like, and what you're good at? Do a bit of everything. Take advantage of opportunities that present themselves. Last edited by Barracuda; 07-28-2011 at 12:09 PM. |

Going to summer camp and not wanting to swim is like putting a condom on and not wanting to have sex. Seriously isn't half their time spent swimming and doing water activities? Why go to camp?

It's part of the package and there are no refunds. I know for a fact that I hate swimming. Why put my life in danger for something I'm not gonna have fun with. This program has ruined my summer. Honestly its like 2 months of summer school and all these hikes and camps.
On a seriousnote I think I have tinnitus My right ear keeps hearing this wind sound. Annoying and has been there for a day. Can you swim with that? I'm sitting in my house and it's like I'm at a subway station |

your life is not in danger swimming at a camp. there are lifeguards to protect you, and massive liability suits if they fuck it up. it is an opportunity to learn, and one you should take. i can promise that an adult that can't swim is in more danger than a child learning how to swim. one day there won't be people to protect and teach you. |

Wordpress header and theme customization - repost
- Status Closed
- Budget $30 - $250 USD
- Total Bids 25
Project Description
I posted this project once and I didn't get any bids from people that I wanted to do business with. In an effort to avoid that end result again, let me list some things here at the top...please start here and if you are not ok with anything I have said here, please don't bid.
I will not hire you if you have less than 75% completion rate. If you are BRAND NEW, then that's ok, but your portfolio had better be pretty amazing! I will not hire you if you don't have a portfolio somewhere so I can see examples of work you have done before. I will also not pay UP FRONT. I am fine with a 25% milestone as the first payment, but I will not pay up front. I have had issues with people bidding and then never even starting, so it's my personal choice to not pay until there is proof that the project has been started. Please do not bid if you are not ok with that.
Also, you MUST speak English FLUENTLY. If I email you and you don't understand me, find someone to translate or just let me know and then we will not work together. I need to be able to communicate clearly with you.
Finally, I will address the fact that this is a new account. I've used this site many, many times, but it's been quite a few years since I have, so I started a new account. However, in a situation like this, *I* get the benefit of the doubt since I am the customer. If you have an issue with the fact that I haven't made freelancer the center of my universe and have all kinds of PROOF that I'm a paying customer (like most place in the world, including a regular STORE), then please just don't bid on my project. We're talking about a a few hundred dollars of graphic design. It's not life or death here. I don't have time to mess around, I'm just here to get some graphic design done. If you go to my site and then to another site that's similar to freelancer that I use as a platform for my business (url below), you can see THOUSANDS of feedback comments I have from my OWN clients. That is proof that I'm an ethical business person and I have no problem sharing that information.
Thanks for your interest, hopefully I'll find someone this time around!
So now on to what I actually need...I've had a website for a few years and it's time for a design change! Its a Wordpress site, so I need a header graphic and for the theme to be customized to match it. The site's subject matter is adult, but the site itself is only PG-13. There is no nudity on the site and there will be none in the graphic design I'm requesting, but you will be exposed to adult subject matter if you look at the site. I love the standard/old fashioned cheesy kind of "porn" look to a site though and prefer that type of style.
The website is [url removed, login to view] and the listing page can be seen here [url removed, login to view]
Niteflirt does have some character limits and html restrictions. That information will be given to you before the project begins, if you are not already familiar with their policies. If you are, please mention that in your bid as I would prefer to work with someone who has experience with Niteflirt, if possible.
I have more websites to overhaul, so this could turn into multiple jobs for the right person.
To clarify, I need:
1. Wordpress theme customization, including customized header graphic
2. Matching (but not identical) Niteflirt listing design (consisting of just a few graphics and layout design, usually around $100 worth of work)

DiNapoli: Tax Revenue Lags
Tax revenue coming into the state's coffers is lagging behind projections, Comptroller Tom DiNapoli found in a report issued this afternoon.
DiNapoli's December cash report found that collections through the month totaled $46.4 billion, which is $48.3 million below the most recent estimated. It's also $685.3 million off the mark from an April projection.
With the state budget proposal due out on Tuesday from Gov. Andrew Cuomo , DiNapoli urged that the revenue estimates be realistic in order to keep the spending plan in balance.
"Tax collections are still not growing at the rate needed to meet year-end projections, and the boost in personal income taxes in December likely won't continue," DiNapoli said. "So far the budget has been balanced by spending less and taking advantage of one-time windfalls. With the budget process about to begin again, revenue projections should be realistic so that the budget is not balanced with revenues that won't be there."
In order for the state to meet projections at the end of the state's fiscal year, April 1, the revenue would have to grow by 7.1 percent in the final three months.

Honda's new CR-V has just launched here, and it's in the running for the first time since 2010.
We're testing the all-wheel-drive VTi model - which is the cheapest SUV here, priced at $32,790. It's powered by a 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine making 142kW and 220Nm is reasonably competitive. It comes standard with a five-speed automatic transmission and other goodies such as 17-inch alloys and a reversing camera.
It's smaller on the outside but bigger on the inside, and the smaller frame has helped cut fuel use by 15 per cent to 8.7L/100km over its predecessor - but that number may not look so good next to its frugal diesel competitors.
