|Elsa The Ice Queen of Arendelle
Passive: The Cold Never Bothered Me Anyway
Elsa is enveloped by an aura of frost and ice. Enemies who stray into the zone are slowed when they deal damage to Elsa. Champion-based damage grants Elsa a burst of speed as long as it is sustained within the aura's range.
Additionally, specific items grants Elsa's abilities new or improved effects.
Passive: Fear Will Be Your Enemy
As Elsa's Health drops or whenever allied Champions are hit by her abilities, Elsa's secondary resource bar FEAR gains a stack. If the stacks reach maximum, Elsa's abilities become dangerous to all units regardless whether they are enemies or allies. FEAR starts to fall off very quickly if Elsa is surrounded by allied Champions.
Q Ability: Wake of Ice:
Elsa to summons a C-shaped wall of ice in front of her. The wall is impassable the first second it spawns and is destroyed a second thereafter. It damages enemies caught in the main blast and a reduced damage to a secondary area around it. Elsa can freely pass through the wall. This ability has a short cooldown.
FEAR effect: Wake of Ice creates bigger blocks of ice which explode, applying additional damage to enemies caught in the blast and slowing both allies and enemies.
AUGMENT: Rylai's Crystal Scepter: Increases the width and length of the ice wall. Duration and destruction increased from 1 second to 1.5 seconds.
AUGMENT: Iceborn Gauntlet: Ice wall appears with a slowing aura that lingers for 1 second and enhances Elsa's next auto-attack with bonus magic damage.
AUGMENT: Frozen Heart: Ice walls do not block allies and the movement speed gained from Elsa's passive is turned into a 1 second invisibility.
W Ability: Frozen
Elsa summons a blizzard around her for a duration which damages enemies caught inside and causing her passive The Cold Never Bothered Me Anyway to be extended to the entire area-of-effect of the blizzard. While the blizzard exists, Elsa can elect to throw it in the direction she is facing, turning it into a wide projectile that damages and roots enemy Champions it passes through. This ability has a moderate cooldown.
FEAR effect: Frozen's blizzard periodically pulls allies and enemies towards Elsa. If the blizzard is thrown, allied and enemy Champions it passes through are put into stasis.
AUGMENT: Eye of The Watchers: Projected blizzard grants a moderate shield that lasts for 1 second to all allies it passes through.
AUGMENT: Frozen Mallet: Upon activation, Elsa can project up to two blizzards.
AUGMENT: Orb of Winter: A second projected blizzard is dropped on Elsa's current location when she hurls it and launches after a short delay.
E Ability: Frozen Watcher
Elsa summons Marshmallow, at a short distance of the direction she is facing, for a duration. Elsa can freely control her guard (Alt+Right Click/Press E to cursor) but it can only move away at a certain range before teleporting back to her. This ability has a moderate cooldown.
The Ice Creature has the following effects:
LEVEL 1: Nothing special.
LEVEL 2: Periodically summons three fields which explodes after a delay, slowing and damaging enemies inside.
LEVEL 3: Periodically summons a slow-moving wave of small snowmen that damages and slows enemies it passes through.
LEVEL 4: Kills and assists extend the duration of Marshmallow. Marshmallow deals increased damage to Epic Monsters and receive less damage from them.
FEAR effect: Frozen Watcher's LEVEL 2-4 Marshmallow can apply crowd control effects to allies. The number of allies and enemies near Marshmallow and Elsa increases the chances that Marshmallow will use any of his abilities.
AUGMENT: Talisman of Ascension: Level 2-4 Marshmallow gains the ability to periodically call down a delayed rain of snowballs around him, impacting on enemy Champions. Number of snowballs increases with Elsa's level. This is increased in FEAR effect.
AUGMENT: Face of The Mountain: Level 2-4 Marshmallow gains the ability to periodically polymorph a nearby enemy Champion. Marshmallow cannot polymorph the same Champion for a few seconds. This is increased in FEAR effect.
AUGMENT: Frost Queen's Claim: Level 2-4 Marshmallow gains the ability to periodically summon a Snowman to push down the nearest lane. Snowmen are fast-moving, fast-attacking long-ranged units. This is increased in FEAR effect.
R Ability: Let It Go
Elsa begins channeling and after a successful channel, she teleports to a predetermined area anywhere in the map. Upon arriving, she raises her castle of ice which expands as it appears, damaging and knocking up enemies caught in the blast. The castle lingers for a moment, granting allies in it slightly increased Armor and Magic Resistance. This ability haa a moderately long cooldown.
FEAR effect: Let It Go will also knock up allies in the area when Elsa appears. Enemies attempting to enter the castle will be knocked away from it. This is a one-time effect.
AUGMENT: Zhonya's Hourglass: Instead of a knock-up, the castle of ice stuns enemies instead.
AUGMENT: Banshee's Veil: Increases the area-of-effect and duration of the castle of ice. Castle of ice grants more Armor and Magic Resistance to allied Champions below 40% Health.
AUGMENT: Rod of Ages: If the castle of ice does not damage any enemy, it can be cast again for free for a short time. If both casts does not damage any enemies, the ability goes on a greatly reduced cooldown.
You might have noticed that all of Elsa's non-ultimate abilities rely on where she is currently facing. This is to strengthen Elsa's reliance of mastery of positioning. She is a frail Mage who relies on slows and ice walls to keep away enemies who can burst her down.
Also, a unique aspect of Elsa is that she can prove to be as harmful to her allies as to her enemies. Much like the powers in the movie, Fear makes Elsa's abilities malevolent to anyone near her. I imagined Elsa to be a Champion everyone would watch out for when picked in a game.
She is also her abilities have no cost (So far, I think there are no ranged Mages in-game that don't have costs to their abilities. Vlad's cost Health.)
I'll be making more of the Disney Princesses when my time allows it and will try to add as much uniqueness to each.
I'm looking forward to all you critics~!!!

The lone bomber detonated himself around a gathering of construction workers on a commercial street in al-Jadida area of the Iraqi capital, a police official said on Tuesday. The powerful blast also damaged a series of shops and vehicles. A medical official confirmed the casualty figures. Both officials spoke on condition of anonymity as they were not authorised to release the information, and said the death toll could climb further. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack, but Islamic State of Iraq and Levant (ISIL, also known as ISIS) have previously launched similar attacks in the past. The attack comes three days after 11 people were killed in an attack in the city of Tikrit in north of Baghdad.Source: Agencies Tell us what you think

The midfielder spoke to teammates and coaches in a group for a short time but did not speak with reporters.
Dempsey, the 2004 rookie of the year in Major League Soccer, had been left off the U.S. roster for last Wednesday's exhibition game at Germany. Coach Bruce Arena's decision to leave Dempsey off was due to the suspension, U.S. Soccer Federation spokesman Jim Moorhouse said.
Dempsey had fought with Revolution captain Joe Franchino during a workout for the MLS team. His suspension ended Sunday.
The Revolution begins the regular season on Saturday at the Los Angeles Galaxy and opens its home season April 30 against the Chicago Fire.

text: We have a problem with repeat scammers ripping our members off in our classifieds forums. Since the data protection people stopped us from publishing the details of known scammers, we are somewhat helpless to stop them. One considerable help would be a conversation monitor which creates an alert for selected mods/admin when specified key word(s)/phrases are sent in a conversation. E.g. A match on at least one key word or phrase (maybe a Person's name, phone number, bank account number, street name or post code) sent in a conversation creates an alert with a particular message pointing to a thread or previous user profile. We could then step in to ban the scammer and warn the intended new target.

Today, I learned that, when you ask your girlfriend "Do you think we're having sex too often?" she might interpret it as, "I don't think we should have sex ever again," and entirely stop talking to you. FML

Today, my new boyfriend and I really wanted to have sex, but he went soft as soon as he entered me. This happens every time we try. I feel cursed by my year-long dry spell. FML

Emily VanCamp in ELLE Canada April 2014: "Josh and I Keep it All Very Separate"
With her upcoming superhero flick "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" slated to hit theaters April 4th, Emily VanCamp pitched in on promotional efforts by covering the April 2014 issue of ELLE Canada magazine.
While rocking a few poses for the Colette de Barros-shot spread, the "Revenge" star opened up about everything from her relationship with co-star Josh Bowman to her "girl next door" reputation.
Highlights from Miss VanCamp's interview are as follows. For more, be sure to visit ELLE Canada!
On Josh:
"Josh and I keep it all very separate. I barely talk about him in interviews, to be honest. It's just really funny in the moments when we're playing these absolutely absurd things. I call him 'wife-beater Daniel.' It's hard for my family to watch—it's also hard for them to see me in that light. But we're actors. None of that lives in any of us. Thank God!"
On her "Revenge" character:
"I've always been very good at letting my characters go at the end of the day. For almost three years now, I've been playing with these heightened emotions—someone who's so much more tortured than I could ever be, with so much more anger than I could ever have. At a certain point, it does start to weigh on you physically and mentally, and suddenly you're not coping with things as well. I think it's emotional exhaustion. It's definitely something I'm trying to catch and change as much as possible when I really feel that it's getting me down. I started meditating this year, which was hugely helpful. You have to let this all out."
On her goody goody image:
"I'm nothing like the girl next door. When you think of her, you think of a strong moral compass and a wholesome upbringing, but my life has been anything but conventional or normal. It's a really odd way to be described by people who don't really know you. I kind of preferred, as I entered into the Revenge and Captain America realm, the bada** thing that people were talking about. Maybe that's a little more like me."
On her dealings with the paparazzi:
"It's the weirdest and most annoying thing. I don't think actors who are working should ever complain—there are shitty parts, but you deal with it. I grew up in the countryside, though, so I like to go to the grocery store in my sweatpants or maybe even take it to the level of going to the store in my onesie. But I can't do that anymore. Or, for instance, I stole my sister's really comfortable sweatpants and took my garbage out in them and was caught by the paparazzi, so I had to give them back!"

Fragaria cascadensis is a newly-discovered species of strawberry plants that have just been discovered high on the peaks of Oregon's Cascade Mountains. The new species was discovered near Hoodoo Mountain by Agricultural Research Service scientist Kim Hummer with the National Clonal Germplasm Repository at Corvallis, Oregon.
Fragaria cascadensis Strawberry Plants: Summary
Unlike the modern Garden Strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa) which, if propagated by seed, does not produce second generation plants whose traits are true to the parents, Fragaria cascadensis is a new strawberry plant species whose offspring will remain true to the parent plants' characteristics. This species has been dubbed the "Cascade Strawberry."

Quick GuideCataracts Causes, Symptoms, Vision Tests, and Surgery
What is the treatment for cataracts?
People with early cataract will find that changing their glasses, using sunglasses to decrease glare and having better lighting to read can significantly alleviate their symptoms. Magnifying lenses for close work and reading fine print may also be helpful.
Many cataracts are not bothersome, causing few symptoms. In that situation, no surgical treatment is necessary. However, the only true treatment for cataract is surgical removal of the cloudy lens. Surgery is suggested if the patient loses the ability to perform necessary activities of everyday life, such as driving, reading, or looking at computer or video screens, even with glasses, and there is the expectation that vision will improve as a result of the surgery.
Patients' responses to the presence of a cataract vary. A cataract in only one eye may be disturbing to a particular patient and may not cause significant symptoms in another patient.
Cataracts usually do not harm your eye, so you can have surgery when it is convenient for you and when the cataract interferes with your daily activities. Once you understand the benefits and risks of surgery, you can make an informed decision about whether cataract surgery is right for you. In most cases, delaying cataract surgery will not cause long-term damage to your eye or make the surgery more difficult.
If the eye has other diseases that have caused visual loss such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, or optic nerve damage from glaucoma or other disease, cataract surgery may not improve the vision.
Occasionally, your doctor may recommend removal of a cataract if it prevents the diagnosis or treatment of another eye problem, such as macular degeneration or diabetic retinopathy.
If both eyes have cataracts and surgery is agreed upon, the surgery on the second eye is generally planned at least a week after the first eye. There is usually no harm in waiting a much longer period of time between the two eye operations.
Because the lens of the eye is necessary to accurately focus light onto the retinal surface and removal of the cataract involves removal of the lens, modern cataract surgery combines removal of the lens and placement of a new artificial lens into the eye. Measurements for the size, shape, and power of this lens will be taken prior to the surgery so that the specific lens can be available for implantation at the time of surgery.
More than 3 million cataract surgeries are performed annually in the United States. Cataract surgery is extremely safe and effective, improving vision in the vast majority of patients.

Qatar's sovereign fund gazed into Ivan Glasenberg's eyes and made him blink. That's a huge victory over Glencore's chief executive, whose nature is never to show weakness. True, the Gulf state may not have extracted the precise terms it demanded for the commodities megamerger.
But it got a significant sweetener at the eleventh hour from buyer Glencore after using its 12-per-cent stake in Xstrata to threaten to kill the deal. Far from being "dumb money," Qatar's sovereign fund should command a new respect in financial markets.
The Gulf state took a big risk by taking such a large outspoken position, stating that an exchange ratio of 3.25 was more desirable than the 2.8 agreed by the boards of both companies. Sovereign funds are rarely active investors and seldom make public statements. Yet Qatar's vociferous opposition to the merger terms, even if its preferred price looked unjustifiable, consolidated existing resistance from institutional investors.
It's too soon to say whether the gamble really has paid off. Glencore is now offering an exchange ratio of 3.05, a 9-per-cent bump on the last offer. But Glencore's new proposal isn't identical in all other respects. Crucially, it involves Mr. Glasenberg being chief executive of the combined group, instead of Xstrata's current CEO Mick Davis. It's not clear that Qatar won't now demand an even bigger premium after taking into account the changed governance.
Qatar has always maintained that it seeks long-term value. Its bet on Xstrata has been painful as the shares have sunk, but the investment is probably now almost in the money. The Gulf fund's average purchase price is around 1,074 pence ($16.79) per share, according to estimates by Liberum Capital. Xstrata shares are trading at 1,040 pence after rising 6 per cent following the revelation of Glencore's new terms.
The real value to Qatar has been demonstrating to the world that it isn't just another pot of "easy" Gulf money, as it is often said to be. Doubtless Qatar will continue to spend lavishly on trophy assets. But it's shown trading whiz Mr. Glasenberg that it knows a thing or two about being a price-maker, rather than a price-taker.Report Typo/Error

text: SELEX Elsag to supply communications system for Royal Navy's tanker programme27 Sep 2012 05:30 PM Four new UK Royal Fleet Auxiliary tankers to be equipped with IP-based communications based on Selex Elsag's Sentinel systemSELEX Elsag, a Finmeccanica company, has won a contract from the South Korean shipbuilders Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME) to supply a suite of communications systems for the Royal Navy's Military Afloat Reach & Sustainability (MARS) tanker programme. The systems will be installed on four new logistic support vessels to be built in South Korea by DSME and operated by the Royal Fleet Auxiliary.The MARS communications system has been designed to make optimal use of commercial and military systems already proven on other defence programmes. For instance, a number of systems deployed on the RN Type 45 Destroyer will be adapted cost-effectively to meet the needs of the MARS tankers. These include SELEX Elsag's Communications Management System, which provides for central configuration and control of communications assets.IP communications technology will form the backbone of the communications system, developed from the company's Sentinel system, which is now deployed on the UK MoD's Falcon land communications system. The MARS Identification Friend-or-Foe solution is based on the one being supplied by SELEX Elsag for the RN Queen Elizabeth Class aircraft carriers. The messaging system uses the company's MPS2000 system deployed on most RN naval vessels.SELEX Elsag is also providing topside electromagnetic modelling to optimise the placement of antennas for reliable communications and safe operations. Other key elements include the HF, VHF and UHF radio systems, tactical data links and a suite of audio visual recreational systems.The MARS communications system is easy to use and is optimised to support UK maritime operations. It is modular and scalable, facilitating the rapid insertion of additional capability through life.Selex Elsag describes the key benefits as including:• Fast, flexible assignment of communications circuits and control of equipment characteristics;• High levels of automation to reduce operator workload and enable crew multi-roling;• Multi-level domain separation for voice, data and management traffic; derived from an in-service system to enable low risk security accreditation;• Maximum use of standards-based solutions to aid scalability, capability insertion and obsolescence management, while exploiting supply chain efficiencies;• Extensive use of commercial products to take advantage of commercial innovation and upgrade cycles.Phil Robinson, UK Senior Vice-President at SELEX Elsag, said: 'We have combined proven existing military and commercial technologies to develop a cost-effective, integrated and scalable solution. This will meet both current and future communications requirements, from initial deployment throughout the life of the MARS vessels.'Wireless magazineLeave a CommentPlease write code to prove you're humanMore on...

Kodiak Ketogen is the most innovative, non-stimulant fat metabolizer on the market today. By using three scientifically developed complexes loaded with research validated ingredients, Ketogen helps target multiple aspects of weight loss including fat utilization, improved metabolism, insulin regulation, appetite control, and carbohydrate metabolism. Take a look at Ketogen's fully transparent label and you will find full, clinical doses of:
7Keto – 7-Keto has been shown in published clinical research to help maintain metabolic rate and increase weight loss 2.9x more than diet and exercise alone.
L-Carnitine Tartrate – Essential for transporting long-chain fatty acids from the cytosol into the mitochondria for subsequent fat breakdown and energy production.
CapsiAtra™ – Enhances insulin sensitivity, protecting your hard-working body from storing carbohydrates as body fat and stuffing your muscles full of glycogen.
Raspberry Ketones – Increase lipolysis by making the cells more sensitive to the effects of the fat burning hormone norepinephrine.
Garcinia Cambogia – May prevent de novo lipogenesis which is the process that turns glucose (carbs) into lipids (fat).
Alpha Lipoic Acid – Shown to keep insulin levels lower and act as a mild appetite suppressant.
We all know proper nutrition and a sound exercise program are key to improving body composition and obliterating fat. Unfortunately, there is no magic pill that can do it for you without putting in the hard work. However, even the best programs need a "kick" when weight loss comes to a plateau or stops completely. The ground breaking blend of ingredients found in Ketogen perfectly complements a well-designed weight loss plan and can enhance your body's ability to become lean.

Watch for Vultures with wingtags!
I'm the wildlife biologist for the Yurok Tribe in Klamath, CA. Wanted to get some help from all you vulture enthusiasts out there. We are running a CA condor reintroduction feasibility study and are tagging turkey vultures as part of our project. Please report yellow wingtags with black numbers to firstname.lastname@example.com. We need to know when and where you saw the bird and the number on the tag. Pictures are great too. Check out our project at www.yuroktribe.org/government/selfgovern/condorprogram.htm.
Thanks for the great blog Ali!

13th Annual Kern Valley Turkey Vulture Festival
The schedule for the vulture festival is shaping up with some fun new events added this year.

In the evening they will serve vulture stew for those who want to watch the vulture drop in. Additional chairs will be set up outside their patio, so there should be room for everyone.
Several field trips are planned and are filling up fast so reserve your spot now.

What is a vulture?
New World Vultures
Learn about Turkey Vultures at the 13th Annual Turkey Vulture Festival on Sept. 28-30
Taxonomic Classification
Kingdom: Metazoa (=Animalia) Phylum: Chordata Class: Aves (birds)
New World Vultures are similar to Old World Vultures in their habit of eating carrion and bare heads.
Current Classification
Order: Falconiformes Family: Cathartidae - New World Vultures
Black Vulture - Coragyps atratus
Turkey Vulture - Cathartes aura
Lesser Yellow-headed Vulture - Cathartes burrovianus
Greater Yellow-headed Vulture - Cathartes melambrotus
California Condor - Gymnogyps californianus
King Vulture - Sarcoramphus papa
Andean Condor - Vultur gryphus
New World Vultures are medium to large-sized birds that are adapted to a diet of dead animals. They have weak feet with blunt talons and bare heads. The California Condor only lives on the west coast and the Black Vulture only lives in the east. The Turkey Vulture lives and migrates throughout the Western Hemisphere.
Turkey Vulture - Cathartes aura
In California vultures can be found all year along the coast and are only absent from the interior during short periods in winter. They are particularly fond of large trees where they like to roost overnight.
The Turkey Vulture is 25 inches long and has a wingspan of six feet. They are large dark brown birds with silvery flight feathers. The juveniles have gray-skinned heads and grayish bills and the adults have red-skinned bald heads and yellow bills.
California Condor - Gymnogyps californianus
Condors are rare in California and Arizona throughout the year. They are found foraging and roosting along the foothills and mountains in the central California coast and in the Grand Canyon.
The California Condor is the largest land bird in North America. It has a wingspan up to 9.5', unlike the light 3 pound Turkey Vulture, the condor is a heavy bird weighing up to 24 lbs. It begins to breed at 6 years and can live as long as 45 years.The 7 species of New World vultures are in the family Cathartidae. They are in the order Falconiformes for now, but scientists are trying to determine who vultures are most closely related to. For a few years they thought they were most closely related to storks, but now they are not so sure. Recently they moved them back to the order of falconiformes but kept them in the family Cathartidae but this most likely is not the end of the story. The 15 species of Old World Vultures from Europe, Africa, and Asia are in the family Accipitridae. Old World vultures are more closely related to hawks, where New World Vultures are not.
In Europe a buzzard is a hawk where in North America many people call vultures buzzards.
Confusing isn't it?
One thing is for sure, without vultures the land would be full of rotting dead things. Vultures are the janitors of the World and serve an extremely important function.

To Take CPE Courses or Not
Thats the Question
Experts share answers.
August 18, 2008
by Sukanya Mitra
|Tune in to see latest Video Snacks on related topics.
Ever think, what would happen if you stopped taking courses and receiving your CPE credits? Besides the obvious, of losing your license, possibly your sleep. But what if you took a course and did not receive credit? Ever wonder if there's any difference between taking courses online versus offline? CPA Insider™ reached out to two experts in the world of CPE, David Tolson, CPA, director, CPE Product Development at the AICPA and Carla Blake, CPA, compliance manager — sponsor services, at the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) to find out all the answers. Last week, our experts revealed why you need to take CPE courses and what some of the hot-topic trends are.
Can non-CPAs take CPE courses and get credit for them? Can those credits be used to obtain the CPA designation or any other AICPA designation?
David Tolson (AICPA): Non-CPAs can take the courses and get CPE certificates, but the credits earned will not directly help them to get the CPA or other AICPA designation. To earn the CPA designation, applicants are required to complete a university curriculum as specified by their respective state board, pass the CPA examination and meet certain other requirements.
Carla Blake (NASBA): I agree with David. Any individual may participate in programs of learning that are offered for CPE credit. The benefit to the non-CPA is that the program will enhance their existing skills and may meet their company's developmental training requirements. Individual state boards of accountancy would have the authority to allow the learning activity to count toward any of the CPA licensure requirements.
Let's spend a moment on the history of self-study.When did it really come into vogue?
Tolson: Self study has existed for decades, but became more popular about six years ago when it was put on an equal footing with "live" training. Previously, CPAs generally only earned half credit for every hour of training. With the AICPA/NASBA joint CPE Standards changes about six years ago, certain improvements were made to the quality of self-study training and many state boards began allowing full credit for self-study courses that meet the new requirements.
Blake: Due to a concern with the quality of courses offered by self-study sponsors, the Florida Board of Accountancy requested NASBA's assistance in developing an in-depth review process for self-study sponsors. The result of this was the creation of the Quality Assurance Service (QAS) for self-study sponsors. In 2002, the Standards were revised to eliminate non-interactive self-study and bring National Registry self-study closer to meeting the QAS self-study requirements.
Has there been a shift toward taking more CPE self-study online? If so, will online take over traditional classroom CPE sessions?
Tolson: Online training continues to grow steadily, but training in general has been growing. We have not and do not anticipate a decline in traditional classroom training in the foreseeable future but some modifications may be needed, such as offering half-day training instead of full days.
Blake: Most self-study today is delivered via the Web or on CD-ROM for use with personal computers. However, there are still many providers who offer the traditional paper-pencil based courses. As David points out, I also feel that it is unlikely that self-study will take over traditional classroom programs mainly due to the fact that many state boards of accountancy limit the number of CPE credits which can be earned by self-study. Additionally, many CPAs enjoy the interaction with other participants and the instructor in person and opt for only traditional live classroom programs of learning.
Should someone take a CPE course and not get proper credit for it, what recourse would s/he have?
Tolson: It would depend on why they didn't get credit. For example, their recourse would be to contact the CPE provider if the provider improperly advertised the course as meeting state board requirements.
Blake: Many state boards provide CPAs with an opportunity to submit a written request to the board to ask for a one-time exemption to the CPE rules in the event that the CPA took a course and did not receive proper credit. However, the state board may provide additional rules on this opportunity. One such rule is to require the CPA to ask the board if the course would be eligible for credit before taking the course. If the CPA is unsure of the eligibility of a course, NASBA recommends that the CPA contact the board prior to registering for the course. NASBA maintains an approved Registry and QAS list on the Web site that state boards and CPAs may access at any time.
Besides AICPA, can you recommend any other authorized CPE course providers, both on and offline?
Blake: The National Registry of CPE Sponsors maintained by NASBA consists of over 1500 CPE providers offering a variety of CPE programs, a complete listing of them can be viewed at http://registry.nasbatools.com. CPAs can also search a database of CPE courses at www.cpemarket.com — a service of NASBA.
How can CPE credits benefit the sole practitioner?
Blake: CPE credits allow the sole practitioner to gain knowledge and skills in many areas. The CPA can demonstrate these competencies to potential clients and establish a larger clientele.
How has the slowing of the economy, rising energy prices and joblessness affected CPE?
Tolson: There has been no impact. The CPA profession is often one of the last industries to be impacted in a downturn since the CPA can provide valuable services to clients during troublesome times. (See related story on how CPAs are surviving today's slow economy.)
How are you changing your products because of this?
Tolson: We are developing some training aimed at CPAs helping clients who are having financial difficulties.
How does AICPA's CPE offering (CPExpress) compete successfully with many for-profit vendors?
Tolson: Because of the AICPA's large membership base, we are able to meet members' diverse training needs very effectively at a low price. For example, CPExpress offers members more than 900 courses (over 1,200 credits) for a single annual subscription price of less than $200. When you consider that online training generally sells for about $15 per credit hour, CPExpress offers our members $18,000 worth of training courses for only $200. It really sounds too good to be true. You'd be surprised how many members are unaware of this great member benefit.
Armed with all this useful information, you now know how to get your CPE credits, where to get them and how many to get. There's just no excuse for you to be a laggard when it comes to getting your CPEs.

Located in the vicinity of Stolac in Bosnia and Herzegovina, are the incredible ruins of the mysterious ancient megalithic site of Daorson. Considered to be the center of the Daorsi tribe who lived in the valley of the Neretva River between 300 BC and 50 BC, written sources date back to the 5th century BC. this ancient city was built around a central fort surrounded by incredible cyclopean walls made out of immense stone blocks. Believed to have served as a defensive area, the walls of this incredible site extend from thew southwest to the northeast in an area that stretches across sixty five meters.
This ancient city complex has not been completely researched, archaeologists believe that the city turned into a full operational settlement with vast residential and commercial areas in existence since the Bronze age, thus they expect the history of the settlement to give further insight into the migration and ordinary lives of the constructors of this megalithic site, few people know of.

Target: The Lutheran Church Charities Therapy Animals
Goal: Thank The Lutheran Church Charities and their therapy animals for bringing comfort to those affected by the Boston Marathon Tragedy.
Boston Marathon runners were tragically caught in the midst of a bombing downtown Boston. Two bombs were detonated and three individuals died, with hundreds more critically injured, many losing limbs. In the aftermath of such a devastating event, The Lutheran Church Charities flew to Boston with their therapy dogs to bring much-needed comfort to the victims.
The dogs were stationed a few blocks away from the Boston Marathon's finish line for anyone who might want to visit. The dogs also visited victims who were in the hospital recovering from injuries incurred during the bombing. The Lutheran Church Charities began the program after the Northern Illinois University shooting in 2008. Since then they have traveled with their dogs to bring comfort to victims of terrible tragedies, including the Sandy Hook shooting in Connecticut. There are 67 dogs in the program.
Animals can provide comfort and joy that is very rare in times of crisis. Wilson's (1984) biophilia hypothesis also suggests that if we see animals in a peaceful, calm state we tend to feel more safe and secure, and more at ease ourselves. This is incredibly important to ensure victims of tragedy that they are safe, and that they can feel at ease. Thank The Lutheran Church Charities and their therapy animals for comforting victims of the Boston Marathon bombing.
Dear Lutheran Church Charities,
Thank you, and your therapy animals, for bringing comfort to the victims of the bombing in Boston. The tragedy that occurred at the Boston Marathon was devastating, and community members desperately needed a reason to smile after experiencing such a crisis. Your therapy animals brought smiles to many faces. Thank you for sharing your therapy animals with both the community and the individual victims who were still in the hospital recovering from injury.
Animals bring so much joy and a sense of calm to humans. Victims of tragedy benefit from seeing and interacting with peaceful animals, as it gives them a feeling of safety and peace themselves. Thank you for bringing comfort and hope during this time of need. Please continue to share your therapy animals with individuals and communities in need.
