Our imaging centers use advanced technology to assist physicians on the medical staff at Baylor in providing quality care.
Although the word is frightening, abnormal results from a mammogram are more common than you may think. An abnormal report doesn't mean you have breast cancer, but it doesn't mean that you don't have breast cancer, either. It means that you should meet with a physician to decide if you need extra tests.

WASHINGTON, D.C., December 7, 2004--- Congress solved a two-year impasse on Monday when it passed a key conservation bill. The legislation provides technical assistance funding to landowners who want to participate in the Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP) and the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP). The Bush Administration touted both major conservation programs during the recent presidential campaign as solutions to environmental challenges facing the U.S. Private landowners often partner with Ducks Unlimited and other conservation groups to provide technical assistance for both programs. The WRP and CRP programs conserve and restore wetlands and grasslands important to waterfowl and other wildlife, as well as helping maintain and improve water quality. President Bush must now sign the bill for it to become law.
The legislation would end a two-year stalemate between congressional agriculture policy leaders and budget experts. The solution was crafted by the Senate Agriculture Committee and sponsored by Senator Thad Cochran (MS). The bill more clearly defines the intent of the 2002 Farm Bill by resolving the conflicting interpretations of the Conservation Title's funding for technical assistance, thereby terminating the need for certain conservation programs to cover costs for the implementation of others. With support from the Agriculture Committee and House leadership, Congressman Frank Lucas (OK) successfully pushed the measure to be one of the final bills considered on the House floor in the final days of the 108th Congress.
President Bush is a strong supporter of WRP and CRP, having cited them as examples of positive solutions to environmental challenges in remarks he made on Earth Day earlier this year. Bush also highlighted the success of the programs at appearances during the presidential campaign.
For the past two years, Ducks Unlimited has worked aggressively with the agriculture and wildlife communities along with policy experts on Capitol Hill to find a long-term solution to technical assistance funding for CRP and WRP. There were times when the future of WRP and CRP were both in jeopardy. The bi-partisan support on the House floor for the technical assistance bill is a victory for farmers, ranchers, landowners, and sportsmen conservationists. By passing this bill in the lame duck session, Congress has ensured the continued success of WRP and CRP.
With more than a million supporters, Duck Unlimited is the world's largest and most effective wetland and waterfowl conservation organization. The United States alone has lost more than half of its original wetlands—nature's most productive ecosystem—and continues to lose more than 100,000 wetland acres each year.

October 30, 1915. Vicinity of Fort Collins, Colorado. "Jacob Rommel and his family live in this roomy shack, well-furnished, with a good range, organ, etc. They own a good home in Fort Collins, but late in April they moved out here, taking contract for nearly 40 acres of beets, working their 9 and 10 year old girls hard at piling and topping (although they are not rugged) and they will not return until November. The little girl said, "Piling is hardest, it gets your back. I have cut myself some, topping." The older girl said, "Don't you call us Russians, we're Germans" (although most of them were born in Russia). Family been in this country eleven years."

Today HP announced a new set of technology programs and future products designed to move x86 server technology for both Windows and Linux more fully into the realm of truly mission-critical computing. My interpretation of these moves is that it is both a combined defensive and pro-active offensive action on HP's part that will both protect them as their Itanium/HP-UX portfolio slowly declines as well as offer attractive and potentially unique options for both current and future customers who want to deploy increasingly critical services on x86 platforms.
What's Coming?
Bearing in mind that the earliest of these elements will not be in place until approximately mid-2012, the key elements that HP is currently disclosing are:
ServiceGuard for Linux – This is a big win for Linux users on HP, and removes a major operational and architectural hurdle for HP-UX migrations. ServiceGuard is a highly regarded clustering and HA facility on HP-UX, and includes many features for local and geographically distributed HA. The lack of ServiceGuard is often cited as a risk in HP-UX migrations. The availability of ServiceGuard by mid-2012 will remove yet another barrier to smooth migration from HP-UX to Linux, and will help make sure that HP retains the business as it migrates from HP-UX.
Analysis engine for x86 – Analysis engine is internal software that provides system diagnostics, predictive failure analysis and self-repair on HP-UX systems. With an uncommitted delivery date, HP will port this to selected x86 servers. My guess is that since the analysis engine probably requires some level of hardware assist, the analysis engine will be paired with the next item on the list…

This week AMD finally released their AMD 6200 and 4200 series CPUs. These are the long-awaited server-oriented Interlagos and Valencia CPUs, based on their new "Bulldozer" core, offering up to 16 x86 cores in a single socket. The announcement was targeted at (drum roll, one guess per customer only) … "The Cloud." AMD appears to be positioning its new architectures as the platform of choice for cloud-oriented workloads, focusing on highly threaded throughput oriented benchmarks that take full advantage of its high core count and unique floating point architecture, along with what look like excellent throughput per Watt metrics.
At the same time it is pushing the now seemingly mandatory "cloud" message, AMD is not ignoring the meat-and-potatoes enterprise workloads that have been the mainstay of server CPUs sales –virtualization, database, and HPC, where the combination of many cores, excellent memory bandwidth and large memory configurations should yield excellent results. In its competitive comparisons, AMD targets Intel's 5640 CPU, which it claims represents Intel's most widely used Xeon CPU, and shows very favorable comparisons in regards to performance, price and power consumption. Among the features that AMD cites as contributing to these results are:

What's the Big Deal?
Emerging ARM server Calxeda has been hinting for some time that they had a significant partnership announcement in the works, and while we didn't necessarily not believe them, we hear a lot of claims from startups telling us to "stay tuned" for something big. Sometimes they pan out, sometimes they simply go away. But this morning Calxeda surpassed our expectations by unveiling just one major systems partner – but it just happens to be Hewlett Packard, which dominates the WW market for x86 servers.
At its core (unintended but not bad pun), the HP Hyperscale business unit Project Moonshot and Calxeda's server technology are about improving the efficiency of web and cloud workloads, and promises improvements in excess of 90% in power efficiency and similar improvements in physical density compared with current x86 solutions. As I noted in my first post on ARM servers and other documents, even if these estimates turn out to be exaggerated, there is still a generous window within which to do much, much, better than current technologies. And workloads (such as memcache, Hadoop, static web servers) will be selected for their fit to this new platform, so the workloads that run on these new platforms will potentially come close to the cases quoted by HP and Calxeda.

King Abdullah, making the first visit to England in twenty years by a Saudi ruler, created a storm of controversy by claiming he sent information to Prime Minister Tony Blair before the tragic July 7, 2007 bombing in London. "We have sent information to Great Britain before the terrorist attacks in Britain, but unfortunately no action was taken. And it may have been able to maybe avert the tragedy." His rather dramatic comment raises questions as to why two years after the event this information is finally seeing the light of day. Some critics believe it is a pre-emptive strike by the Saudi King in order to divert attention from his own failures in extending human rights within the kingdom. Vince Cable, head of the Liberal Democratic Party, said he would boycott anything to do with King Abdullah due to the human rights failures in Saudi Arabia.
We can expect in the coming years other claims that Blair or Bush ignored warnings about potential terrorist attacks. In some cases, the speaker will be expressing solid information, in others, it may simply be a way to gain attention or, in the case of King Abdullah, to focus attention on British failures rather than his own civil rights record.

In doing some family planning (Highlander), I happened across an interesting snippet on Toyota.com. Apparently, the Tundra is going to be towing Endeavor to its final resting place. They currently have one video up about a Tundra about to tow 307000lbs (but dont show it doing so yet).
Anyways as the kid of a Toyota engineer, I hope it doesnt flop in real life (apparently its going to be televised live). But MAN, 307000 lbs in what is claimed to be a stock Tundra with stock gears?
Discuss if you wish, or not.
The first primer video is on youtubehttp://www.youtube.com/user/ToyotaUS...?v=9huNSUY6s_4

Over the course of last season, we ran a series of features in the Official Matchday Programme with some Arsenal-supporting London 2012 Olympic hopefuls. We continue with volleyball star Nathan French...
Nathan French is one of the stars of the Great Britain team. A member of the national side since the age of 18, the native of Chelmsford now has approaching 50 caps for his country - and he's still only 21.
So Nathan, tell us a bit about your Arsenal support
I've supported the team since I was a little kid. For me it was mainly because of my friends and particularly my next-door neighbour, who's a real fanatic and travels everywhere to see them. It's funny because my dad is a Man United fan but my mates proved a stronger influence. Me and my dad have had a few arguments in front of the TV over the years. I don't get to see Arsenal very often other than on the TV to be honest, really because since I was young I've been playing sport every weekend. I played a lot of rugby and then volleyball of course.
Who's your all-time favourite player?
I'd have to say Dennis Bergkamp. He had everything - the skill and the vision and he was also so loyal to the Club and deserved to have that amazing testimonial to open Emirates Stadium, incredible. I loved Wrighty when I was little too, you could say he was my favourite English player.
So tell us, how did you get into volleyball?
I was fortunate enough that when I was 14 the PE teacher at school was an excellent volleyball player and coached the sport, which is really unusual in schools. To start with you mucked about with your friends and it was good because in winter it meant we could play sport inside but then I just got more and more into it.
And you were soon playing for your country…
Yes, I was selected for the England cadets in 2005 and then we won the Olympic bid and I knew there would be a GB team at the Games - and there was no greater incentive to try and get into the junior England side and then the seniors. I was in the GB development squad three years ago and made my full debut when I was 18. At the minute I'm in the starting six and getting a lot of court time so I have to make sure I maintain that. A volleyball squad is 12, but obviously you want to be one of the six on the court as much as you can.
Looking at the GB squad, at 6ft 4in you are one of the smaller players - it's like the land of the giants!
You're right, there are always players much taller than me in the team, and the smaller you are, the higher you have to jump. Volleyball is a game played more in the air, so a great deal of time is spent in the gym working on your spring. But volleyball's an extremely technical sport too and also a lot of work takes place on endurance - two hours of volleyball is very tiring. A lot of my skills are actually on the floor, going for the ball and passing, you have to be big but agile as well.
What position do you play?
In football terms I'm on the left wing, it's kind of like a midfielder role in that you need to be able to read the game, make the plays and attack - I have to be versatile.
What's the format at the Olympics and who should we look out for?
There will be two groups of six, if we win the first two games we can qualify into the quarter-finals, win that and you're challenging for a medal. Brazil and USA are always challenging for the gold. Russia, Serbia, Cuba - they have incredible athleticism - are very good too. But if we can just get out of the group, it's the old cliché that anything can happen in the knockout stages. In the Olympics Test Event we beat a very good Mexico side and Egypt who were ninth in the world too. We've also beaten China, who I think were 12th. So although we are ranked around the 90 mark we are improving and now competing with the best.

'"My coach and my agent both told me that I had a decent shot to be a late pick. On draft day, I remember just staring at the computer and watching each pick and round go by. It was very difficult to do, but Buffalo took a chance on me with the 220th pick in the seventh round, a lot earlier than I thought. I knew a few minutes later that the work was only beginning."'

Currently three products are rather popular within NVIDIA's desktop graphics card line-up, the GTX 580 which is too expensive for most people, the GTX 570 which is too expensive for many people and then there's the GTX 460, which everybody seems to get smiles upon their face ... no metaphors to Coldplay intended here by the way.
Face it, to date the GTX 460 cards offer a frackload of performance for money, the value you see with the card is just awesome. Anno January 2011,you can spot the 768MB models for 125 EUR already whereas the 1024MB versions not only have a little more memory but rendering performance as well, can be spotted for roughly 150 EUR already.
Now after a horrible, horrible desktop consumer graphics year for NVIDIA the GTX 460 thus came and grasped the hearts of many consumers but of course also the NVIDIA board partners. As to date, I have not seen and tested so many graphics cards from one series as that GTX 460 series.
And you know what ? The development is still ongoing ... a couple of days ago KFA2 issued a press-release announcing yet another GTX 460. The SKU is the 1024MB model tagged as Razor edition ... with razor blades being sharp and thin, yes ... this in fact is the first single slot GTX 460 that enters the trenches of the Guru3D.com laboratory, you know... that dark, demonic, hidden deep underground facility where volcanic lava flows and divine powers whispers (spoken backwards) are a common anomaly.
So today we test the KFA2 GeForce GTX 460 Razor Single Slot graphics card that is bound to deliver a very decent gaming experience. The Razor single slot solution could be interesting as a small form factor product. Have a peek and then let's startup the review.
In this review we benchmark the new KFA2 / GALAX GeForce GTX 980 Ti HOF, a product that impresses by design as it offers great game rendering performance at quiet noise levels. Hey with its white desi...
KFA2 GeForce GTX 960 EXOC review
KFA2 aka GALAX releases their mid-range GeForce GTX 960 EXOC edition, yep as in Extreme Overclocked. The product comes factory overclocked with a boost clock of 1266 MHz. The product has a custom and ...
KFA2 GeForce GTX 760 EX OC review
In this article we review the KFA2 GeForce GTX 760 EX OC edition, this particular model comes with a dual-slot two cooling solution. That boils down to a silent product versus and more than excellent cooling performance. KFA2 offers the card factory slightly overclocked at some pretty impressive clock frequencies. Join us in this review and let's see if the 259 USD Gaming edition model will be worth it for you.
KFA2 GeForce GTX 770 EX OC review
In this review we take the KFA2 GeForce GTX 770 EX OC edition for a benchmarkin' test-drive. This model graphics card comes with a factory overclock and a new design cooler with dual 90mm fans. Overall the card is sitting in-between the GeForce GTX 680 and GeForce GTX 780 , 100% cool and 100% silent. We test the product with the hottest games like Metro: Last light, Battlefield 3, Sleeping Dogs, Far Cry 3, Medal of Honor Warfighter, Hitman Absolution and many more.

Postgraduate Coursework Units of Study
ECON6006 - Market Structure and Strategic Behaviour
Semester 2, 2014 | Credit Points: 6
Coordinator: Vladimir Smirnov
The purpose of this unit is to examine the nature of inter-firm rivalry in industries with market power. The unit begins with an exploration of the various ways in which firms can increase their market power by extracting more surplus from consumers by colluding with rivals or by excluding entrants. The topics for this part of the unit include price discrimination, product differentiation, advertising, research and development, predation and mergers. The unit also attempts to explain the various contractual and ownership linkages that exist between various stages of production. The latter involves a discussion of exclusive territories agreements, resale price maintenance, exclusive dealing, franchising and divisionalisation.

China law states that the employer MUST apply for the working visa/Z visa on your behalf many schools ask you to get a visa yourself. This means they do not have the required license for hiring foreign teachers. One such school is China Hong Kong English School CHES (http://www.teachatches.com/) located in Dongguang and Zhongshan. After being there a while you will realize that the visa they will arrange for you will either be a L (tourist) or F (Business) visa. To work under these visas is illegal! There are certain regulations to protect foreigners such as minimum health care standards and if the accommodation is more than so many floors high it must have a lift. It also contributes to tax fraud and the government has recently been deporting foreigners who brake the law (which could destroy any chance of getting a future Chinese visa). It also means you wont be protected if your things are lost or you are cheated by the employer since all your dealings will be legally invalid.
Protect yourselves and keep safe. I left this school 7 months ago as one of our colleagues got deported.

London Theater Ceiling Partially Collapses
Authorities in London say more than 75 people were injured when part of the ceiling of a theater collapsed Thursday night. Seven of the injuries are serious.
The collapse at London's Apollo Theatre happened during a Christmas holiday season performance. Police say plaster and masonry from a section of the ceiling tumbled down, bringing parts of the theater's balconies down with it onto the audience.
More than 700 people were in the theater at the time.
One person in the audience says she was seated near the stage and heard the main actor shout, "watch out!"

RFID technology boosts asset control
Thanks to an asset management solution, Mission Foods saves big on returnable containers.
Latest NewsU.S.-NAFTA trade is up for sixth straight month, reports BTS AAR reports annual U.S. carload and intermodal gains for week ending June 17 Digital Issue: The Current State of Third-Party Logistics Services New JDA survey finds missing link to omni-channel success for manufacturers and retailers FTR report makes the case for Twin 33-foot trailers in the LTL sector More News
Latest ResourceDigital Issue: The Current State of Third-Party Logistics Services It has become quite clear that logistics professionals are now facing an unprecedented set of challenges. From tightening capacity, to ongoing regulation hurdles, to the complexity brought on by e-commerce, today's shippers are transforming the way they manage their logistics operations.
All Resources
As one of the world's leading tortilla producers, Texas-based Mission Foods is an industry innovator in manufacturing quality tortillas, chips, salsa, taco shells and more for consumers throughout the country and around the world. Daily operations in three Texas warehouses require accuracy and proficiency as they process and prepare nearly 20,000 containers of product on a daily basis for a vast network of independent distributors.
As part of the distribution process, Mission Foods places all of its packaged products in returnable plastic containers (RPCs), which independent distributors then load onto trucks. The independent distributors then are supposed to return these RPCs after sales are complete. However, Mission Foods found that after the RPCs left the warehouse for deliveries, they were likely never seen again.
With a paper-based tracking process that wasn't streamlined across the various warehouses and distribution centers, Mission Foods workers had no way to track if RPCs were returned to a different facility or if they were ever returned at all. Because of this, Mission Foods lacked basic asset tracking, and the results were staggering. Nearly 100% of its RPCs were being replaced each year at an annual cost of nearly $3.5 million.
The solution was an RFID-based asset management and tracking system (Intermec, http://www.intermec.com). In the new process, the packaged products are picked and loaded onto the RPCs, which are tagged with RFID labels. The RPCs are then loaded onto pallets and the RFID label is encoded by a smart printer before it's applied to the pallet wrap. An RFID reader records these pallets and associated RPCs as a forklift drives though an outbound portal prior to the loading dock. When the delivery trucks return, the RPCs are again processed through an inbound portal, offering an easy, immediate reconcile of inventory. Even if the containers are returned in batches or to a different warehouse, they are still scanned in as "returned," allowing Mission Foods to see in real-time where they are all located.
With the new system, Mission Foods now budgets a 20% replacement rate for damaged or unreturned boxes, instead of the 100% replacement rate it once experienced. In reality, the company now has closer to an impressive 4% replacement rate as a result of the RFID technology.

Steelhead and Duck Combo trip to trade!
If you're interested in either driftboating for steelhead or shooting out of a layout boat for canvasback,bluebills, or ringnecks I might have a trade for you. I'm looking for a goose hunting trip. I'm particularly interested in shooting 'specks' (best eating bird, other than canvasbacks). I have a fishing lodge on California's Trinity River, and a another house on the north coast (Arcata Area). By the way....we have hundreds and hundreds of scoters, bufflehead, ruddy's etc...pound the can decoys everytime out. Never have shot one.....I see that 'seaduck' hunting is popular in many places? If you have a fishing/hunting trade in mind, throw it on out.

how old do they have to get before you can eat them?
yeah..where have you been??so that's pretty quick. even better than chickens. that must help keep the cost way down!
We're expecting kits here as well. Early next month. Your post on rabbits got me thinking and I now have breeders and they are setup so I bread them a few days ago. 2 New Zealand does bread to New Zealand bucks. You started something. Bailey.
I throw the junk left out of the garden to my bunny to keep the feed down and to give him something besides pellets to eat. I cut a head or 2 of cabbage a week through the winter and the outer leaves and the base of the plant goes into the cage. Collards and broccoli that don't make the cut also goes into the cage.
Here's what I use. It's a little expensive, but super easy and fast: http://www.therabbitwringer.com/ (viewer discretion advised: some of the videos are a little graphic on their website and may not be suitable for children or weak at heart)A pellet air rifle works great too. Very quick, but also not very sustainable. I like using methods that don't require buying stuff from the sporting goods store, just incase down the road there's a supply line problem. Call me a prepper or crazy, but I think the world is gunna get strange soon and I don't want to worry about not being able to buy lead pellets for my bunnies.Ziffa, unfortunately there's nothing nice about dispatching something so cute and fuzzy. No matter how many times you do it, it still sucks. And if it makes you sad when you're dispatching your animals, then that means you're a good farmer and your heart is in the right place. There's no better food in the world than the stuff grown with love and caring. Meat raised in feedlots don't get that kind of attention.Shedding a tear when dispatching your meals just makes dinner that much sweeter.Sean

Reeling in the big one: Derry couple wins shark tournament
By HUNTER McGEE
Union Leader Correspondent | June 27. 2014 8:31PM
Winning team members from the Block Island Sharkfest tournament include, from left, Jenny Seikmann, Patrick Rivard, Ryan Letourneau and John Richardson. (Courtesy)
The Derry residents, who are both attorneys in the same Manchester law firm, were part of a crew from New Hampshire that competed in the 2014 Block Island Sharkfest. The crew landed a 203-pound mako shark to win first place in the mako division and take home $7,000 in prize money, Rivard said.
"For our first tournament, it was pretty incredible," Rivard said.
Rivard wanted to give the tournament a try after watching the television show "Shark Hunters." During a recent episode, Rivard said he studied the TV anglers' technique and knew he could do better at reeling in the toothy fish.
In putting the crew together, Rivard said he knew Siekmann also had some shark fishing experience and loves boating.
Siekmann was selected to pilot the 28-foot boat and serve as videographer, while Rivard manned the harpoon. Also selected for the trip were Ryan Letourneau and John Richardson. They are also from New Hampshire.
"Everything that could go wrong, went wrong," Siekmann said.
On the day they left for the tournament last week, there were problems with the boat trailer that delayed the trip, she said. And, Siekmann somehow ended up on the wrong ferry to a captains' meeting, causing her to arrive even later to the session.
"We use huge reels," he said. "Everything has to be perfect; it has to be oiled and the drag has to be set perfectly."
"We get down there and I got 30 gallons of chum and gallons of fish oil and all of this stuff," he said. "I get down there, and I forgot the bait."
After the shark was brought up to the boat, it was gaffed, harpooned and secured immediately outside of the boat, Siekmann said.
"We were lucky we didn't lose him, quite frankly," Siekmann said.
"Anything over 200 pounds has a good chance of getting into the money," Rivard said.

text: Since Friday, I have been having intermittent stabbing pain where my jaw line meets my ear on the left side. I have TMJ, but I am not having a flare up - no pain in the jaw, no locking, no pain inside the ear, and no dental issues. Doesn't feel the same at all as a TMJ flare up. I also have infrequent migraines, but they are accompanied by aura and it isn't like that either. The pain is like an electroshock to the face. Lasts a few seconds, stops, comes again every 10-30 seconds. Then it will stop for some random number of hours -- it started Friday night around 8 pm, stopped about 6 pm Saturday, started again in the middle of the night Saturday, stopped around 9 pm Sunday night, started again in the middle of the night Sunday night, lasted till 10 am Monday, stopped till 11 pm Monday and has kept up ever since. Can't really tell if the stoppage is Advil-prompted - at first I thought it was, but now I have taken 5 Advil since 11 pm last night and no relief. My doctor has been on hiatus between practices and was supposed to be up and running at her new practice 2 weeks ago. It is a new office of a multi-location practice. I called and the new office is postponed so she won't be back till August 2 at a different location. I hate my doctor's old practice, and I work near a medical building so I called 19 doctors all of whom are not taking new patients. I called my doctor's new practice to see if I could see someone at a different office till she got back and I was told I need to wait for new patient processing to call me back. I guess a new doctor at the old practice is a last resort, but they no longer accept any medical insurance and they double bill - which is the reason my doctor left. My internet searches all come up with one thing - Trigeminal Neuralgia - aka "the suicide disease" because it can be intolerable. It all fits, my age, the pain description, the fact that I had a couple of isolated pain shocks to the eye a few weeks before this started - a typical precursor/warning sign. Sounds like I will need an MRI and some tests to rule out tumors and MS. Treatments include anti-convulsants and weird sounding surgical procedures, but while I am seeking out a referral, there are some homeopathics like B complex and accupuncture. I will try anything at this point, and I figure those can't hurt much if I get a different diagnosis. If anyone knows anything about weird facial pain and has any recommendations on what makes it better or worse, please post!

Hi Lucy,
I've recently started teaching again T.E.F.L after a break of ten years. I use a communicative approach and try to get students speaking as much as possible.
At the moment I'm teaching an A1 group which is a mixture of absolute and false beginners. The students' ages range from 20 to 60 years old. We're using the "Speakout" book which is published by the BBC. I've been methodical and stressed things like the third person of the present simple and made sure we practised the grammar points through speaking activities.
A student from another group joined mine recently and told my students that her old group is on Unit 5 (we're on Unit 3). I knew this before, as all the teachers regulary meet and we compile the exams for all the groups at the end of the (100 hours) course.
My students are now worried that we're not moving fast enough, eventhough I assured them that there will be nothing in the exam that they haven't seen in class. What annoys me is that the new student asks questions about very basic stuff and is well below the average level of my class. A composition she submitted was also full of mistakes, so much for being two units ahead.
At the end of today's class there was a discussion about this in the students' first language. Some of them are ridiculously unrealistic. One girl who misses a lot of classes but wants "to get a B1 (PET) as soon as possible" told me "Rory, I think we should speed things up." Not in a nasty way, but I was stunned taking this from someone who hardly ever comes and has never submitted any work. There was some good input from another student who suggested more speaking in class, but to be honest, I ask everyone questions everyday and don't know how to do any more. I would be open to your suggestions, though.
I want to keep improving as a teacher and maybe I could be a little faster, I don't know, but as I told them in their first language today, the fundamentals need to be well-understood.
Sorry for the long post, but what how do you think I should proceed?

This week we're highlighting one of our favorite French liqueurs, the inky black currant flavored Crème de Cassis de Dijon. These sweet little bottles of crème de cassis are made in Burgundy by Briottet, a company run by the Briottet family in the town of Dijon since 1836.
Briottet makes their crème de cassis with only "Noir de Bourgogne" black currants. The word "crème" signifies that the liqueur is made from macerated, real fruit rather than flavorings and, the addition of the name Dijon means that the currants ("cassis") used were grown only in the commune of Dijon. These currants are picked quickly at their peak ripeness and are immediately immersed in alcohol where they macerate for 3 months. Sugar is then added to balance out the tart flavor of the currants – it also makes the liqueur syrupy. Upon completion, crème de cassis has about the same alcohol content as port.

Linda Tang made the long journey from China to New Zealand in hope it would offer her an opportunity to establish a life in a democratic nation which had a high standard of living. Ms. Tang holds a B.A. in English and is a former English lecturer at a university in China. She did not expect any problems in the nursing program and passed her courses. However, Ms. Tang was failed in her final year because it was claimed her accent would prevent patients from understanding her and might result in a fatal outcome. According to Ms. Tang, "to say my English is not good enough is just an excuse. I feel that what they have done is discriminatory, especially to the Chinese because we are penalized not for our lack of knowledge or ability, but simply because of how we talk."
Ms. Tang scored 6.5 on the international English language Testing System to qualify which was the level required to enter the nursing program. She argues that while not being able to speak English might cause some problems, native born New Zelanders do not speak foreign languages which would damage their ability to communicate with foreign speaking patients.
Many years ago I applied for a teaching position in my native New York City and was told they would not pass anyone who spoke with a New York City accent so I faked it. Actually, this issue is complex. If a nurse misunderstands what the doctor says or is unable to communicate with a patient the outcome could be disastrous. On the other hand, are there sufficient numbers of Chinese speaking people in a hospital with whom she could communicate as she continues working on her English proficiency?

I actually had high expectations for this one too, but not just because it has cats :P I feel it's very eye-catching/ striking, silly, entertaining, thoughtful, and well done. All the ingredients I would want in a T-shirt design that I would wear with pride. However, I have come to terms that my "taste" is the opposite of the masses here from what I have seen, so I didn't consider this a "winner" at any point. I was hoping for another fluke print though!
I am not concerned though. I got to create another great design to add to my arsenal of awesomeness.
Re: King Me!
Love this! I hope it prints! None of my favs in the last derby made the cut so I've got $ for this shirt when it prints! ;-) BTW, the animated siggy is awesome.

Cute! And sad...
I would buy this shirt immediately if it makes it. Great work either way!
Re: off with his scoop!
If you were to go by the King, the faces of these "ice cream people" are on the cone, not the ice cream scoops. So the "beheaded" cone merely loses its "hair" and the hood and eyes of the executioner are actually on a hat... nitpicking I know but I do love the concept.

Re: Royally Betrayed
I don't think this is a bad design, but the image you have for this derby makes it incredibly difficult to actually just look at the design. Could you clean up the submission image?
fairnymph wrote:What a beautiful design...which alas, I could never wear (and thus cannot vote for), as it is sadly on cream. Maybe consider submitting on another background colour? White would definitely work, and provide more contrast allowing the design (especially the red) to 'pop' more vividly.
Excellent feedback is excellent :D
So, assuming this version will get shut down by rejectimus prime and taking into account said excellent feedback i prepared this:

Added some tweaks to the design in anticipation of a rejector-beam attack and threw it on a different shirt color, hopefully you enjoy! =)

USC's Track & Field Team To Compete At 3 Meets This Week
Trojans to be at Cal, Stanford and San Diego
THIS YEAR: Senior Remington (Remy) Conatser had a tremendous first season at USC, placing second at the NCAA Championships in the hammer throw and posting the eighth-farthest throw ever by a Trojan.
2103: Won the men's hammer throw at the Claremont Relays, Beach Invitational, Trojan Invitational, Cal-Nevada Championships, and the Pac-12 Championships with throws of 197-1 (60.08m), 207-00 (63.09m), 219-4 (66.85m), 210-11 (64.30m), and 222-10 (67.93m) respectively. His throw of 219-4 (66.85m) at the Trojan Invitational was a then-PR and the 10th-farthest throw in USC history. Conatser bettered that with a throw of 222-10 (67.93m) in the Pac-12 Championships and moved him from 10th to eighth on USC's all-time list for the event. Conatser also had the top collegiate throws at the Ben Brown Invitational, the Northridge Invitational, and the Cal-State LA Invitational with throws of 207-00 (63.09m), 206-7 (62.97m), and 205-1 (62.51m) respectively. At the USC-UCLA Dual Meet, he placed sixth in the discus throw in his first and only attempt at the event of the season with a mark of 148-7 (45.29m). At the NCAA Championships, Conatser placed second in the men's hammer throw with a PR of 224-1 (68.30m). This throw strengthened his eighth-place standing on USC's all-time list for the hammer throw. This was the highest finish by a USC male athlete in the event since Norbert Horvath also placed second in 1999. Conatser did not learn to throw the hammer until 2011.
BEFORE USC: Conatser spent two seasons at Saddleback Junior College where he set the American junior college/community college record in the hammer throw when he won the event at the Ben Brown Invitational on March 9, 2012 with a throw of 215-9 (65.76m). He bettered by three and a half feet the old record which had stood for 18 years of 212-1 set by Dave Loshonkohl of San Diego Mesa College in 1993. Conatster then improved his record with a PR of 217-5 (66.26m) to win at the Tiny Lister Invitational on April 6. What makes it even more impressive is Conatser did not even learn to throw the hammer until the 2011 track season. He also won the Orange Empire Conference javelin title in 2012 with a PR of 187-11 (57.28m). Conatser also has a PR of 155-10 in the discus throw.
HIGH SCHOOL: Conatser is a 2009 graduate of Capistrano Valley High where he competed in water polo and volleyball. He was an All-South Coast League selection in volleyball. He was also involved in the IB program and a graduate of the El Camino Fire Academy.
PERSONAL: Remy was born on July 20, 1990 in Mission Viejo, Calif...His parents are Shell and Desiree and he has one brother, Alex...In his spare time he likes to eat, sleep and train...His sports hero is two-time Olympic hammer throw medalist Koji Murofushi for being a superb athlete and an excellent role model...His favorite type of cuisine is Thai food...Would like to travel to Australia some day...His goal for after USC is to make the Olympic team...He is a Human Biology major at USC.
CAREER BESTS: Hammer -- 224-1 (68.30m) Discus-- 155-10 Javelin -- 189-11 (57.28m)

Often time in life we face difficult moments; moments that are greater than us and they bring challenges in our lives that are to hard to overcome. In such times we go to God in prayer but how do we pray where we are sure that God hears us? How do we pray so that we can be certain that God is the one we must trust in? Well, let's look at the text:
Exodus 32:10-14
10 Now leave me alone so that my anger may burn against them and that I may destroy them. Then I will make you into a great nation." 11 But Moses sought the favor of the LORD his God. "O LORD," he said, "why should your anger burn against your people, whom you brought out of Egypt with great power and a mighty hand? 12 Why should the Egyptians say, 'It was with evil intent that he brought them out, to kill them in the mountains and to wipe them off the face of the earth'? Turn from your fierce anger; relent and do not bring disaster on your people. 13 Remember your servants Abraham, Isaac and Israel, to whom you swore by your own self: 'I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and I will give your descendants all this land I promised them, and it will be their inheritance forever.' 14 Then the LORD relented and did not bring on his people the disaster he had threatened.
This is an interesting text; those who go to church may have heard it before but we must be careful not to make the text say what we want it to say; we must never add to the text or take away from the text because Proverbs and Job warn us what can happen if we do that.
In the circumstance involved the Lord grew angry with Israel, so much so that He was ready to destroy the nation and start it over again with Moses. Notice how Moses prayed! Moses didn't pray with the attitude that he had power. He didn't pray with the attitude of deserving anything. Moses didn't say to God that in the name of Jesus I command this to happen nor did he say that I deserve this; even based on the promises. To say such a thing is in pride. James says, we have not because we ask not and often when we ask we ask amiss; to ask amiss often means we ask with the wrong heart or the wrong attitude; we are me focused and not God focused.
First, we you come to God you must believe that he is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him; Enoch preached this; this means that when you pray to God you must know that there is a God and that He values your prayers and has the ability to give you what you pray. In other words to pray you have to have faith that God can do what He says; this is also why God had the prophet Enoch say that without faith it is impossible to please God. Proverbs also says that the sacrifices of the wicked our an abomination but the prayers of the righteous are His delight so when you pray understand that God wants to hear your prayers and He wants you to talk to Him while understanding that He can act on your behalf as a father to a child. Jesus also reflects this in the Gospel of Luke when Jesus says if a child asks for fish will his father give him a stone; God knows what you need and He likes to hear to come to Him asking.
But when you pray there is a way to ask God for things; yes you can come to the Lord as a child to a father because the Lord is our Heavenly Father; or our Pater Noster; however God so you don't just come to Him any old way; He is not your boy or your "homie"; He is still God. He is the God who destroyed the Assyrian army of 250000 soldiers in one day. He is the God who destroyed the Egyptian army in the Red Sea and did so not only effectively but as a result Egypt lost control of Canaan and it shifted the geopolitical structure of the Middle East; that's why Joshua fought the Canaanites and not the Egyptians even though the Egyptians had fortresses in Canaan. He is the God who lives beyond time and is clothed in light; yet since He made time He chose for the love of you to step into time and called Him Jesus; as a result even though He was human He was still Christ all-powerful or Christ Pantocrator; that's why the laws of humanity like time and death couldn't overtake Jesus because He was from beyond time so the jurisdiction doesn't apply.
For some of you who may be skeptical of God entering time and calling Himself Jesus consider this. If Spike Lee can make a movie, direct it, and star in it; with his flaws; then surely God cal make time, direct and command it, and still call Himself Jesus and play a staring role in human history.
When you pray know that God hears you; He wants to heat you from you; He has the power to help you; you can speak to Him freely but you must respect who He is because He is God and Lord over all. Also, however notice Moses.
Moses came to the Lord correctly and considered God first; considered how God would look to the unbelievers so that the glory of God would be considered. Moses also considered and prayed the promises of God to the Lord; He reminded God about what He said. Notice, Moses didn't just pray his desire; he didn't just pray what he wanted; He submitted his will to God's will; He submitted his desires to what God said and the purpose of the Great Commission even before the Great Commission was given by Jesus; how do we know this; its really simple; Moses said to God in his prayer; what will those who don't believe you say if you destroy your own people. God's word and His purpose to bring glory to Himself and saving souls must come first so to submit to that and what God says is key. Another thing that is key is that the promises of God must come true; Heaven and Earth will pass away before a single word will pass away so if God makes a promise in His word; then it is senseless to pray against it or expect God to not keep His promises; it is senseless to try to manipulate circumstances to get around what God says. Proverbs says that there is no wisdom, council or understanding against the Lord. If you want a prayer not to be answered then pray against what God has commanded. But if you want you prayers answered submit your will to God's will and commandments and then with a humble heart pray what you desire but put what God says first because God will honor His will. If you bend your will to the will of God then God won't just hear you; but He will hear His promises and see your humility when He searches your heart and if your desires fit what God promises; then God will respect your prayers.
Lastly, there are some who believe that God can change His mind and they use this text to hold a false belief; but you need to know the truth; that God doesn't have a reason to change His mind because he already knows what will happen in advance. God knows the future so when you know the future you plan in advance for what is to come so you don't have to change anything for He is beyond time and is not affected by space and time; nor the passage of time; God made the speed of light, and every other law. God shows this repeatedly in the scriptures. However for the sake of argument; let me show this fact about the Lord so you can move closer to Him. Yet, even though the Lord did spare Israel we must remember that God also wiped out that generation of Israel and they wondered in the desert for 40 years. God still followed His course in many ways; God never changes His mind but He will amend circumstances for us when we prayer and approach Him the right way and He will move.

You can read more about it and see his apology without going to his site here. I hope he's prosecuted and at the very least has to issue a sincere apology and pay a fine.

here's the cad drawings of whats done so far.
i think they've cadded up the handle, i just don't have the pic of that yet. also i have a few pieces prototyped as well, i just don't have handy pics of those either. so would anyone like these?

While I'd never wear a mario shirt, this one isn't terrible. The over sized hand coming out of the pipe seems out of place though. I don't know what I'd suggest in place of it, but as it is, it mucks up the flow of the design.
I don't know if it would work, but seeing a full zombie pulling himself out of the pipe might be better. Better yet would be if the zombie was done in a completely different style from the rest of the shirt would have been a nice surprise.

Nice design, but the distressing is wonky. It looks far too much like texture brushes used to overlay color (as I suppose it is). Ever try using the textures in eraser mode? Then you don't use the shirt color, you expose it.
Finally! A good example of following the "No resubs without significant changes." rule. I can think of a few designers that should see this and really let it soak in. Well done.

LMAO! Is that Slash puttin' down the licks while his singer gets into the NOSH pit?

maybe so, for a panel. But this works well. the toning for the counter and, especially, the white background make the depth awesome, and the perspective is great. Likey!
Re: Zombie Birds
I have to agree - for me, it needs pig. Especially a black-eyed pig. But, pig or no - something's missing.
Re: Self service
Funneee! I would just kill to see this re-subbed somehow working in the 'beer hat' contraption somehow. You know - the hat with strapped in beer cans and straws?

Not my colors, but frickin' awesome illo.
This is so amazingly awesome. If only I had any interest whatsoever in wearing zombies...

I too many cookies to see what other tattoos you may have. :D
Re: Day of the BRAAAAAAAAAAINS
I'm also a big Dia de los Muertos fan. The design is kickin'. The pink isn't so great for me - a bit on the Pepto side. A vibrant red would have kicked ass.
Skilled subtle art in a zombie derby? CLEARLY you're doing it wrong.

Even for a non-zombie fan you gotta admit, this is beautiful. In a 'oh hey, yeah, those pretty pictures are zombies, aren't they?' kinda way.
Somehow the coloring and the linework meld and this is just, well, pretty!
OK. Maybe I need to speak to someone about this problem I have...

You were able to locate another shirt about Zombees; much the same way that many shirts exist here about mutant turtles. However, no other aspect of the design is remotely close to similar.
Re: Trapped

Ahah! I figured out why no one is voting for it. The characters look like kids (unintentional if you believe it.), and kids shouldn't have guns! I'm fixing it so it is funnier and better and stuff.
Way better! Still love it, though the hand he's holding up with only three fingers looks kind of fork like. Love seeing strong illustration talent on here... too bad it generally loses out to... other stuff.
