Interactive Masters is nonprofit provider of online courses for healthcare throughout the world.
For 25 years, we at Interactive Masters have watched the development and publishing of online courses (eLearning) become a little engine for prosperity. If set up to do so, eLearning can generate an income stream for a healthcare organization. How? The online courses they create to meet their own healthcare learning needs can be sold to other healthcare organizations that have the same learning needs. Both benefit from the exchange.
Recently, we been using this idea and doing some research to see if we can "harness" the eLearning engine's power in a new way. We think we've done it! With the availability of certain new learning technologies, we've found a way to provide global access to critical healthcare eLearning courses, complete with much-needed localization. The result is online courses that can truly be used wherever needed.
Interactive Masters' 501(c)3 status was granted by the IRS on December 23rd, 2015, retroactive to the 3rd of November, 2015. Donations in support of any of our the projects are tax deductible (subject only to your own tax advisor's advice, naturally). Your donation would help us continue to test the passive income flow model we believe could increase income in small, rural medical clinics all over the world!

Tags are a special way to organize, search and explore photos (yours and others'). Tags are basically keywords or labels that you can attach to your photos, to make it easier to find it later, or to help you make special cross-sections of your photos. You can tag a photo of your brother and his old Fiat 500 with tags like luigi fiat cars (in this case 3 tags, but you can put as many or few as you like to your photos). If you at some point later on wish to find all the photos of cars in your collection, you can click on the tag 'cars' to get the photos with that tag. On your tags page you can see all the tags used on your photos, weighted after how often they're used.
This page is where you find your personal "tag cloud" with all the tags you have used. This makes for an easy and fun way to browse your photos. The tags on this page is weighted so that often used tags are shown in larger font sizes than less used tags.

Water, cookies and popcorn will be provided at the event.
Vera West Women's Center Bunco for Breast Cancer Modified Bunco Rules
Click here for a downloadable version of the rules.
A team consists of 12 players (3 tables of 4 players).
A table consists of 4 players. Your partner is the person sitting diagonal from you.
The scorekeeper for each table rolls first and then proceeds to the left. The scorekeeper for each table will keep record of the cumulative score for each team.
The tournament consists of 4 sets; each set consists of 6 rounds. Play is in 3 minute intervals with 2 minutes of move time between intervals.
Play starts and stops with the air horn.
Players earn points by rolling 3 dice. In each round, players are trying to roll the same number as the round or the target number.
- Example: In round 4, players want to roll a 4. In round 5, players want to roll a 5.
1 point is awarded for each target number rolled successfully.
- Example: In round 4, you will only receive points for the 4's that are rolled.
A player keeps rolling the dice as long as they continue to roll the target number.
- Example: In round 3, as long as you roll at least one 3, you keep rolling the dice. When you roll the dice and don't get a 3, your turn is over. It is then the next player's turn.
When the round ends, each player will move one seat to the right. You will have a different partner for each round.
BUNCO is when you roll 3 of a kind of the target number for that round. A BUNCO earns 21 points.
- Example: In round 3, you roll the dice and roll ALL 3's. You have just earned 21 points.
Rolling 3 of a kind of any number in any given round earns 5 points.
- Example: In round 3, you roll the dice and roll ALL 2's. You have just earned 5 points. This is not a BUNCO because you have rolled all 2's during round 3.
The partners (Your partner is the person sitting diagonal from you) at each table with the highest score for the round will record a "W" (Win) on their individual score sheet for that round. The other team will record an "L" (Loss) on their individual score sheet for that round. If a player rolls a BUNCO, they will record a "B" (BUNCO).
In the event of a tie at your table, each player will continue to roll for the target number until the tie is broken (All 4 players must have a chance to roll).
The Hope Fund allows women, regardless of ability to pay, access to mammography and breast imaging services at no cost. The mission of the Hope Fund is to provide hope and financial assistance to overcome breast cancer through early detection.
Over the course of a lifetime, one in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer, and a growing number of Big Country residents are diagnosed each year. We believe all women deserve the resources and tools needed to protect themselves from breast cancer regardless of ability to pay. Early detection can mean the difference between life and death, and The Hope Fund is committed to ensuring all women have access to life-saving mammograms. Since 2001, The Hope Fund has provided more than 4,000 mammograms for women unable to afford the procedure.
Have you skipped or delayed your annual mammogram because you can't afford it? If you or someone you know would benefit from The Hope Fund, contact Elyse Lewis at 325-670-2532.
Volunteers are needed to serve as table referees at the event.Click here for more information.

- Ammo Can
- Weatherproof glue (Gorilla Glue is good)
- Spray Paint (color is your choice)
- Fake eyes
- Regular cache items (logbook, swag)
First things first, take the ammo can outside with the spray paint. Coat it in a layer of paint, let it dry, then check for any spots needing a second coat. Once you are happy with the paint job, and it is fully dry, let's go back inside.
Set the ammo can down, preferably with newspaper underneath to avoid glue stains. Start gluing the eyes to the ammo can, covering as much free space as you can cover. The more eyes, the better. When you are done, the ammo can should be completely covered with eyes, mimicing the appearance of the Black Beast of AAAaaarrrgh. For those of you who aren't versed in the Monty Python Universe, watch the following video:
Once the ammo can is finished, find a good spot to place it. Somewhere near a rockface with a mini-cave would awesome to help replicate the movie scence. Otherwise, a good wooded area will work well.
Check out WVangler's version of The Black Beast of AAAaaarrrgh to see his cache page or read the logs. It's a great example of incorporating movies into interesting cache designs. This design would work well no matter what the desired cache type is. This would be an interesting design to follow a puzzle about Monty Python movies.

February 25, 2005 · Lessig
On my way back from Memphis, where I spoke at the Rhodes College Institute on the Profession of the Law. This is an annual event (well, my speaking there is not an annual event, but you understand), and I was struck not just by the College (which seems plucked from Oxbridge), but by the seriousness with which 100 lawyers spend a morning thinking, and arguing, about real issues. Maybe its something about the pure Tennessee air (my mom's from Chattanooga), or the distance from Washington, DC. But it is such a pleasure to be able to talk about these issues with people thinking about them genuinely.

Rumor: Possible Trade Would Send Anthony Davis To The Warriors for Draymond Green
Just fast forward the 2016-2017 NBA season if this happens. No reason to even watch, just give the Dubs the title.
Having already acquired former Oklahoma City Thunder star Kevin Durant this offseason, the Dubs are looking for some major talent and height in the front court with another big name in the Western Conference.
There are rumors circulating that New Orleans Pelicans C/PF Anthony Davis could be part of a trade that would send him to the Golden State Warriors and in return would send C/PF Draymond Green to the Pelicans.
Golden State Warriors Rumors: New Orleans Pelicans to trade core assets in favor of signing Draymond Green? https://t.co/8IGDvaXqIY
— Warriors Update (@WarriorsUpdate) August 10, 2016
According to reports, the Warriors front office were not too happy about Draymond's antics this past season that brought unwanted attention—like grabbing and throwing Houston Rockets forward Michael Beasley to the floor during Game 3 of the first-round,hitting Oklahoma City Thunder center Steve Adams in the balls multiple times, and the Lebron James incident during the NBA Finals that resulted in his one game suspension, as well as the leaked NSFW picture he accidentally sent while playing for Team USA in Rio.
Draymond Green averaged 14 points, 9.5 rebounds, and 7.4 assists per game last NBA Finals.

While it is true that a timeshare contract is a binding legal document, it is often mistakenly thought that such a contract cannot only be cancelled. In fact, most timeshare companies maintain that their contracts are non – cancellable. This misconception is perpetuated by timeshare companies and user groups that are funded, maintained and controlled by the timeshare industry.
The FHA 203k loan program provides home buyers the opportunity to buy and fix up a property, without exhausting their personal savings.
And no mention of the credit score and LTV correlations to interest rates???
My thoughts exactly JCR. I hope the study controlled for any variances in credit score.
So what is the credit score, LTV, DTI?

Viability of a New Vaccine for Alcoholism
A vaccine for alcoholism is reportedly underway and is about to go through testing in Chile. The vaccine is similar to the drug Antabuse in that it makes the effects of alcohol unpleasurable upon consumption. When ingested, Antabuse makes a person sick if combined with alcohol. It is often taken as a deterrent because once ingested the otherwise tempted drinker knows that they will fall ill if they try to consume alcohol. The vaccine works in the same way – essentially creating an instant hangover including headaches and nausea if alcohol is consumed.
The concept behind the new vaccine and Antabuse is to deter alcoholics from picking up the first drink. Dr. Juan Asenjo, Director of the Institute for Cell Dynamics and Biotechnology at Universidad de Chile who worked on the vaccine says, "If we can solve the chemical, the basic part of the problem, I think it can help quite a bit."
However once an alcoholic has crossed the line into addiction, sickness is usually inevitable anyway. A common phenomenon in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) is to not pick up the first drink because it will lead to more drinks and more negative effects – including sickness, blackouts and regretful actions. The pain of such suffering that follows the first drink is what brings many alcoholics into alcohol addiction treatment and 12 step programs like AA. Just like Antabuse, the new vaccine may help to initially deter problem drinkers, but a program of recovery is often needed to sustain the desire to abstain from alcohol and drugs.
The lasting effects of the alcohol vaccine are curious because with deterrent drugs like Antabuse and methadone, the addict or alcoholic uses them for the duration that they wish to abstain from opiates or alcohol. Many experience relapses because they can discontinue taking the deterrent drugs when they decide they want to get high. With the vaccine for alcoholism, alcoholics may not have such a choice and therefore may never be able to consume alcohol without getting sick.
While some may have gotten sober via using drugs like Antabuse, hundreds of thousands have gotten sober through addiction treatment programs and a program of recovery. The new vaccine for alcoholism may serve as a surface level deterrent, but deeper level of lasting alcohol addiction recovery is often needed. This is attained through addiction treatment programs that work on the specific issues, traumas and individual circumstances that led to problem drinking and a program of recovery, group support and spirituality that help addicts and alcoholics become free of their addictions.

The Pros and cons of the death penalty debate
Discuss the pros and cons of the death penalty.© BrainMass Inc. brainmass.com August 14, 2018, 1:52 pm ad1c9bdddf
Solution Preview
This is always a hot topic.
The pro-position relies largely on deterrence. The idea is that the death penalty is not merely a form of punishment for already committed crimes, but a way of sending a message to criminals that actually prevents future crimes due to the threat of a possible death sentence. Many critics of the death penalty point out that many violent crimes are crimes of passion and cannot be deterred. Others point out that many criminals plan on not getting caught and so the alleged deterrence value of the death penalty is questionable. Moreover, the death penalty is unevenly applied and usually takes many years and so it loses much of the deterrent value that large-scale and speedy use of the death penalty might have. Modern democratic countries are unlikely to resort to such an expanded death penalty and so the deterrent value of this ...
Solution Summary
This solution examines some of the common policy arguments surrounding the death penalty, including: deterrence, retribution, human rights, uneven enforcement against poor and minorities, and the finality of the death penalty as a form of punishment.

Gurvinder works on an incredibly diverse range of cases concerning education and social care issues with a particular focus on securing the provision of services for children and young adults with additional needs such as sensory impairments, physical limitations, genetic conditions, brain injury and learning difficulties.
Gurvinder regularly represents families in Special Educational Needs and Disability Tribunal appeals in England (SENDIST) and Wales (SENTW) concerning Statements of Special Educational Needs, including challenging decisions at Upper Tribunal. She regularly secures high value independent school placements for children with special educational needs, including residential provision. She often assists in securing funding for special education provision and specialist college placements for young people aged post 16 and post 19.
She has extensive experience of dealing with Admission and Exclusion Appeals and has demonstrable success in both these areas against a number of local authorities.
She also provides advice on the rights and entitlement of young people to educational and social care services and provision so that families are well informed and can be proactive in securing suitable provision.
Gurvinder has previously worked on a successful SEND tribunal appeal securing a residential placement at an independent specialist school for a child with a sensory impairment. The responsible Local Authority had proposed a day placement in a local Academy.
She has also helped secure a new social care placement for a young adult with Autism and Severe Learning Difficulties when his previous social care placement closed. The responsible Local Authority failed to identify a new placement for him and with only 3 weeks remaining before the placement closed, we were able to secure a suitable social care placement which includes regular speech and language therapy and an educational programme which was not provided in his previous placement.
In addition, she challenged the decision of a local authority to terminate a special school placement for a young boy with Cerebral Palsy after a family move of home. As well as ensuring that the child could continue at the same school, we have had the Statement of Special Educational Needs updated significantly, including specification of therapy provision.
Prior to joining Shoosmiths, Gurvinder was at Maxwell Gillott where she headed up an Education and Community Care office.
Outside of work, Gurvinder enjoys going to the theatre, travelling and the (not-so) occasional shopping trip.

As the temperatures cool and the days get shorter, it's time to say good-bye to a few of our favorite summer pastimes.
Movie night in the backyard is one of the things I miss the most when the snow is flying. Movie night at my house is like the Perfect Storm…3 key things come together to create an epic event. Except my perfect storm happens every Friday night.
I've had the components for my movie "Nor'easter Storm" for quite some time. My "low pressure" is the movies. I have quite a library that I've amassed over the years…literally hundreds of movies. Maybe thousands. As soon as it's dark, we fire up the movie. Because of the diverse group of people that we have come each week, the taste in movies is constantly changing. Thanks to Control4, we can browse my entire movie collection right on the screen, let the group choose, and get the movie started. It takes longer to get a consensus than it does to start the movie!
My "high pressure" is my collection of concession equipment. It's embarrassing to admit, but I own an industrial grade cotton candy machine, popcorn machine, and snow cone machine. Show up at my house for movie night, and in under 5 minutes you could be munching on 9 different flavors of cotton candy, 17 flavors of snow cones, and all the popcorn you can stomach. And it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
The "hurricane" that turns my movies and my concessions into the Perfect Movie Night is Control4. I had always contemplated having an "outdoor movie night", but it seemed like such a hassle. I didn't want to have to pull a ton of equipment out of my house to set it up outside, and I didn't want to have to buy duplicate hardware either. Control4 to the rescue.
Here's what I did: For about $ 500, I was able to have a 10' x 18' wide outdoor movie screen made. It sets up in my backyard in about 20 minutes. I've also seen some inflatable screens that blow up in a matter of minutes. I set up a small card table to put my projector and receiver on, and set a couple of speakers on the ground behind the screen. The Control4 system allows me to entertain in the backyard with everything that I have in my home, controlling it all from my touch screen or my iPad – if I can find it.
That's it. I'm done. We are ready for the Perfect Movie Night.
My neighbors start coming over about 2:00 in the afternoon to "claim the good spots". So in the early afternoon, I use my Control4 system to stream my Rhapsody playlist over the speakers and we have kids and neighbors just hanging out and relaxing. Once it starts to get dark, we bring out the machines, and start pumping out cotton candy, snow cones, and popcorn and let the festivities begin.
So for the next five or six months we'll be doing movie nights inside, like normal people, while counting the days till our outdoor movie theater is back in business.

'Cause this music can put a human being in a trance like state and deprive it for the sneaking feeling
Of existing. 'Cause music is bigger than words and wider than pictures. If someone said that Mogwai
Are the stars I would not object. If the stars had a sound it would sound like this. The punishment
For these solemn words can be hard. Can blood boil like this at the sound of a noisy tape that
I've heard. I know one thing. On Saturday, the sky will crumble together (or something)
With a huge bang to fit into the cave.

Alternative Education
The Significance Of Vernacular Bible Translations By Martin Luther, John Wycliffe, And Erasmus In The
I don't know Alhaji, but I do know that where you come from, a lot emphasis is laid on Boys being educated than women. Training assist us to face all problem in our life and in addition present understanding life's problem and assist us to be a successful person. Schooling is represented by him, not because the filling of a vessel, however because the turning the attention of the soul in the direction of the light. By utilizing music, video, quotes and highly effective pictures, you can have a more highly effective emotional effect on an audience than any written essay.
Nice teachers have high expectations for their students, however greater expectations for themselves. Should you feel there is nothing in any respect mistaken with these targets, I include the quotes under as meals for thought. BTW, in case you assume studying motivational quotes is a superb mood lifter, strive performing on them.
Looking for wisdom from among the biggest philosophers, poets, educators, historians, theologians, politicians, and world leaders, I discovered solutions that ought to not only exist in our history books, but additionally remain on the core of current training dialogue. After secondary education, bodily education and spiritual schooling are additionally required.
In case you are a center or high school instructor, I invite you to have your college students write an essay entitled, What is Schooling?" After reviewing the famous quotes under and the pictures they evoke, ask students to develop their very personal quote that answers this query. All males who have turned out value anything have had the chief hand in their own education.
I always believed in schooling and each time an individual begins speaking about it I was feeling good, inspired and took it seriously however now I really couldn't really feel that I even think how I was feeling that, I do not believe in schooling may be it have one other definition. Nations have lately been led to borrow billions for warfare; no nation has ever borrowed largely for training.
Education rears disciples, imitators, and routinists, not pioneers of latest concepts and artistic geniuses. The last word purpose of the academic system is to shift to the individual the burden of pursing his own training. The quotes listed beneath provides some good reminders to varsity students certainly one of their key to success which is a coronary heart that never provides up. Those who give immediately turn into a failure.

If you watched the Posing Productions climbing film, PSYCHE, you will be familiar with the unclimbed extension to Steve Dunning's Northern Exposure - Part 1 an 8b+ that McClure was attempting last year which included his now trademark Bat Hang. Today Steve McClure climbed Part 1, which finishes at half-height anchors and then continued up the steep blank-looking wall above to the anchors above the final roof that caps the North Buttress - see photo.
Murmours of 9a/9a+ were heard and Steve's partners Rab Carrington and Alan Austin muttered, "Boy done good."
According to Kevin Avery who was at the crag, Steve got the route second redpoint this afternoon and Steve said that it went, 'easier than expected,' an almost nonchalant ascent according to Kevin. McClure is obviously in fine form, it is early in the season, and a few weeks ago he repeated Mark Leach's Bat Route which is now 8c+ after shedding some holds.
Now all we need is for someone to attempt to repeat Steve's 9's at Malham and Kilnsey which include, Northern Lights 9a, Overshadow 9a+ and Rainshadow 9a, and now the extension to Northern Exposure.
Steve McClure is sponsored by Petzl, Five Ten, Beal and Fat Face.
Thank you to Pete Chadwick and Kevin Avery for alerting us and providing details.

By Bill Roecker
The cows came home aboard the Royal Star with skipper Tim Ekstrom and Randy Toussaint. The boat docked at Fisherman's Landing late Tuesday and the fish were offloaded early Wednesday, December 19. There were 27 cows, or tuna over 200 pounds, including a kite-caught 345.9-pounder taken by Roger Nies of San Diego.
I saw a little boil, said Roger, and then I saw his head. He ran like hell and made two long runs. Then he went down up off the bow and we had a half-hour standoff. He came up on the port corner. This is my second trip. My best fish before was a 292-pounder.
The fight lasted an hour. Nies used a sardine on a 9/0 Eagle Claw hook on the boats kite rig. When the fish was gilled and gutted, Star crewmen found a complete set of gill rakers and attached innards inside the super cow.
Bart Ryder won first place for a 297.4-pound tuna, and he also had tuna of 203, 207 and 231 pounds
Steve Kimbrough won second and third places for a 286 and a 258-pounder. He also had tuna of 200, 200, 207, and 213 pounds.
Damon Digregorio got a 247-pounder. Kevin Leong caught a 214 and a 230-pounder. Ross LaRue bagged a 244-pound yellowfin. Don Loucios found a 231 and a 246-pounder. Bill Jones caught a 228-pound tuna. Mike Neal had a 215-pounder. Len Cunningham of Alpine took a 200 and a 209-pounder. Steve MacPherson bagged a 269 and a 294-pound yellowfin. Bob Palatella got a 243-pound sickle finned tuna. Former baseball all-star Jeff Burroughs got a 219-pound tuna.
Between The Fronts
Independence docked at Pt. Loma Sportfishing December 19 after the Fishermans Hardware 10-day trip with 26 anglers. Mark Pisano skippered the trip and co-owner Paul Strasser assisted as second. There were seven cows in the catch.
We had better weather this trip, said Mark, We went down and came back between the fronts. We got fish every day. We had good action in the mornings, and the bigger fish bit in the afternoons. Most were on sardines, but we got a few on squid with the kite.
John Arndt of Huntington Beach won first place for a 300.7-pounder that ate his sardine on a 7/0 Eagle Claw hook. He fished with 130-pound Izorline and 130-pound Izor Spectra on an Avet 50 reel and a Calstar 760 H rod.
I saw the boil, said Arndt. He stayed up on the bow most of the fight, but he came up on the portside stern. He fought an hour and 25 minutes.
Russ Rihel of Long Beach won second place for a 284-pounder. He said he got it with a sardine on a 6/0 Super Mutu hook, 130-pound Izorline and 130-pound Izor Spectra with an Avet 50 reel and a Seeker 6463 XXXXH rod.
William Edmiston of West Sacramento won third place for a 276-pounder. He got his prizewinner with a sardine on a 5/0 Super Mutu hook tied to 100-pound Blackwater fluorocarbon leader, 100-pound P-Line and 100-pound Line One Spectra backing on an Accurate 50 reel and a Seeker 6463 XXXH rod.
I lost a monster, a fish a lot bigger, he remarked.
Paul Geurts of Santa Rosa got honorable mention and stood in with the winners for his 272-pounder. He said he got that baby with a sardine on a 6/0 VMC hook on 120-pound P-Line fluorocarbon leader and 130-pound Soft Steel Ultra line with 130-pound Line One Spectra backing on an Accurate 50 reel and a Calstar 6455 XXXH rod.
The fish stayed on the bow, but he came up on the stern, mid ship, he said. It took an hour and five minutes.
Joe Amistead and Rob Filson teamed up to bag a 243-pounder, after it ate both their sardine baits. The two hooks were side by side in the fishs mouth.
Steve Alpinieri caught a 222-pounder with a sardine on a 4/0 ringed Super Mutu hoo tied to 100-pound Izorline and 130-ppound Izorline Spectra. He used an Avet 50 reel and a Seeker 6463 XXXH rod.
Modesto Alcala of Fishermans Hardware caught a 215-pounder with a sardine on a 3/0 Mutu hook. He said he used 80-pound Seaguar fluorocarbon leader and 80-pound Power Pro Spectra on a Tiagra 16 reel and a Calstar 6465 M rod.
Two fish with archival tags were caught. The tags will be worth $500 each to anglers Dennis Evans of Cedar Park, TX and Rob Filson of Chula Vista.
Tries The Cane
Bruce Smith docked Shogun at Fishermans Landing December 19, after a 13-day trip with 23 passengers. Smith took his anglers to the outside, to the Hurricane Bank, where they found very good fishing on 100 to 200-pound tuna. They also appeared to have a good catch of wahoo. There were six tuna over 200 pounds.
David Brewer of Huntington Beach won first place for a 274-pounder, his best fish ever, that battled with him for 45 minutes. He said it bit a sardine on an 8/0 Eagle Claw hook with a ring, tied to 130-pound Izorline and 130-pound Line One Spectra on an Avet 50 reel and a Calstar 7465 H rod.
Kirk Agnitsch of Craig, AK was second, for a 237-pounder. He said it took a sardine on a 7/0 ringed Super Mutu hook. He used 130-pound Seaguar leader and 130-pound Line One Spectra on a Penn 50 reel and a Super Seeker 6463 XXXH rod.
He almost spooled me on the first run, said Kirk. He fought for an hour and a half.
Gus Angelidis of Roseville won third place for a 208-pound yellowfin. He fished a sardine on a 9/0 Eagle Claw hook, with 130-pound Seaguar fluorocarbon and 130-pound Line One Spectra on a Penn 50 VSX reel and a Calstar 7465 H rod.
Greg Berteaux of Apple Valley was honorable mention, for a 268-pounder that swallowed a squid on the kite. He used a 10/0 Mustad 7691 hook with a 14/0 Mustad circle hook for a stinger, and both hooks lodged in the fishs mouth, he said. He fished with 130-pound Izorline and 130-pound Izor Spectra on a Penn 70 reel and a Seeker 6463 XXXXH rod.

Was: $1,266.49

I bought this ring as a gift to myself as commeration to achieving several personal goals. I wear it as a right hand ring. Let my start my review with the statement, "I love jewelry." Indeed, I love it so much I study gemology in my spare time, have considered going back to school to attain this degree, and have been hired by three jewelry shops during Xmas because I helped another customer sort through the C's when the staff was too busy to help him. I also love the Asscher cut. However Asscher cuts, like Emerald cut, is not a cut that can handle a poor quality/cheap diamond. Due to the stairstep nature of the facets, EVERY flaw in the stone will be visible. When my ring arrived, I was beyond pleased. Since Asschers arent deeply cut, more of the surface area of the stone is on the "face" Thus this 1/3 carat Asscher LOOKS bigger than my 1/2 carat round brilliant diamond (i.e. surface area vs. weight). The center stone is colorless. The side stones "blend" into the ring but grab the light for sparkle areound the center stone to highlight it. This ring is classy and sophisticated, in the sense of "old money." Although the center stone is an SI-SI2 level of quality, I can not see ANY inclusions to the naked eye or with a magnifying glass. Thus, I think the quality of the stone may be more of a VS2 than an SI-SI2. Exellent craftsmanshipRead More
I am so happy that I found and purchased this ring. Like one of the other reviewers, I had my heart set on an Ascher diamond but A) had diffculty finding them and B) when I did find them, they were very expensive. I found that this ring was the perfect value for the price. It's very sparkly (much more than I had expected) and really catches the light. Sometimes I find myself just staring at it, mesmerized by the sparkle. I definitely had trouble concentrating at work when I first got it! lol! I found that the size of the ring (the stones) was perfect. It's not too big and not too small. The halo setting makes it look very impressive. I've been getting a lot of compliments on it. As for the ring sizing, I used the size chart provided by the website and the ring fits me perfectly. I was so happy that I didn't have to take it to a jeweler to get it sized because after I got it, I couldn't imagine taking it off! I highly recommend printing out the website's sizing chart and using the feature that allows you to place a ring you already own on the page to find the right size. That's what I did. The only thing I would say about this ring is if you are a jeweler or if you know a lot about diamonds, you may find that there is a slight yellow tinge in certain lighting, however this is hardly noticable to the naked eye and if you're not looking for it, you won't see it. For the most part, the ring looks perfectly white, sparkly, and stunning. As a bonus, the shipping was incredible and the ring arrived earlier than I had expected it to. I was able to track it every step of the way, and believe me, I was constantly tracking it. lol! I highly recommend this product and I'm so happy that I made this purchase!Read More
I really wanted an asscher engagement ring, but everywhere my fiance and I looked, they seemed way out of our price range. We found this ring, and was a little concerned about the center stone size (1/3 ct), wondering if the cut would be visible or not. My worries vanished when he put the ring on my finger. The center stone is very beautiful and very clear. The picture on here does not do the cut justice. The pave setting is gorgeous, and makes the ring appear very large, and creates such sparkle. The center diamond is not cut very deep, but this does not, in my opinion, effect its brillance or sparkle. The raised setting is very unique and really makes the ring pop. The only thing is I would have ordered it a 1/2 size smaller, as it seems from other reviews, most O rings are sized a little bigger. If you like the asscher cut and vintage style, I would definitely recommend this ring.Read More
I had been planning on having a custom asccher cut diamond ring made, but when I saw this on sale at Christmas time ($$% off overstock price) I thought, "why not?" Overstock's return policy is good (you would have to pay shipping to return it) and so no harm, no foul if I don't like it. This is a beautiful ring, and the price cannot be beat. It has a lovely antique look, and the center diamond appears larger than 1/3c due to a more shallow depth in the cut (the depth does not negatively effect the sparkle in the diamond I received). The color is good, and the stone is eye-clean (I found 1 small inclusion using a loop that does not effect the clarity to the naked eye). The setting of the head is lovely. Negatives: I think the setting is set too high for a diamond of this size and a band this narrow, which causes the ring spins a lot. I also tend to be a bit of a princess and the pea, so I find the milgrain on the band a bit annoying. I am going to take it to my jeweler to lower the setting down (which will require removing the diamonds at the bottom of the head), change the band to one with no milgrain, slightly wider, and with different side stones. I will leave the head (halo) intact. Even with the changes I plan, this ring will still end up costing less than if I'd bought a from scratch custom ring to match it. I am very pleased with this purchase.Read More
This ring was purchased to replace my wedding ring. The band is very dainty but the paved setting and center diamond are gorgeous! This EXACT ring is being sold by a very upscale local jeweler for $2100! When I took it to have it sized, they thought my husband purchased it at their store! It sparkles, is rare, very classy, quality, and sophisticated. I wear it with a paved diamond band and am thrilled. My original wedding ring was waaay more expensive but you would never know it.Read More
Beautiful. The center looks like it is larger than 1/3ct because of the setting. Stunning, and looks very good with a traditional wedding band (have a 4mm plain white gold and it looks great). The height of the ring sits perfectly over the wedding band and even though the side setting keeps a hair space between the two, you aren't going to get any more flush with the match. The drawback? It gets hung on the strangest things (doorknobs of all things), no trouble with anything else because the edges are done well. Also, and I am not this picky but some people probably are, in most light the center looks very good, but there are a couple of lighting settings where it is just **barely** perceptible colored. I love the asscher cut and the setting. Recommended for the value/price in a heartbeat!Read More
I purchased this ring for my fiance. It came rather quickly. She loved it even more in real life then in the picture. We were very fortunate as the diamonds look perfect to the naked eye. When I took it to a local Jewelry store to have it sized they thought I purchased it from them. The one they were selling looked almost identical for 3 times the cost. Overall we are very happy and would purchase jewelry again from here.Read More
My now fiancé proposed to me with this ring a few weeks ago. I had no idea, although I had shown him rings on Overstock before I was worried about buying a ring online. It's beautiful though, and the Asscher cut is amazing, I didn't think he could afford something like that. The diamonds are sparkly and clear and look a lot larger than what size they actually are. I have gotten many compliments on it. The band is a little large, I told him my size was 6.5 and I need to get it resized but other than that it's a beautiful ring.Read More
Perfect, perfect, perfect. All the reviews hold true on this ring!! I bought it for an engagement to my girlfriend and she absolutely loved it!! It looks amazing, very shiny, and nice! She can't stop looking at it days after! Definitely recommend this ring!!Read More
The diamond ring was nice but shower up missing one of the tiny stones that surrounds the big stone, so we retired it and got a full refund which is good.Read More
I bought this ring as my wedding ring and wasn't expecting it to be quite this stunning. The price was very reasonable--almost a steal for what you get! The ring sparkles in the light and the gems are crystal clear. It's unique and beautiful. From the top, the largest gem catches the eye; from the side, the raising of the band itself brings your attention to the tiniest details. It is so beautiful!Read More
I was so excited to get this ring, but it was a lot smaller than I expected. I love asscher rings a lot, and I wanted one, but was disappointed when I got it. I returned it for a full refund. I find it a little obnoxious that Overstock does not let you return things right away, you have to wait for customer service to contact you before a return can happen.Read More
My lady was super happy with ring! I proposed to her at the harbor with friends around to see the event happen. She was ecstatic.Read More
I am very surprised with how pretty the ring actually looks on my hand. It is very unique and nontraditional. Delivery took about 2 days.Read More
The ring is pretty, but it is very petite I had to return. I have small hands and it was still very small for me. However, I rated it higher because of my satisfaction with the overall transaction. The shipping was super fast and so was getting my refund - did not have any problems at all. So sorry it did not work out.Read More
It's a nice ring but it's much smaller then I would likeRead More
This ring is very sweet, but only if you are petite...or you're wearing it on your pinky. Lovely gift for a teen.Read More

CAMP RHINO, Afghanistan — After 20 days in a foxhole where the desert night reminded him of a snowless Chicago winter, Lance Cpl. Jonathan was feeling the pride of accomplishment.
For Jonathan--the Pentagon allows publication of only first names of American combatants--trench duty will not end immediately. Nonetheless, the suburban Chicago native was pleased to hear that the Marines are about to relocate their forward base and a 2,000-member force from Camp Rhino to the recently occupied Kandahar International Airport, a strategic prize in the U.S. campaign in Afghanistan.

Nearly 600,000 jobs in elementary and secondary schools could be eliminated by state budget cuts over the next three years, according to a study released this past week by the University of Washington. Fewer teachers means higher class sizes, something that districts are scrambling to prevent.
The stimulus sets up a $54 billion fund to help prevent or restore state budget cuts, of which $39 billion must go toward kindergarten through 12th grade and higher education. In addition, about $8 billion of the fund could be used for other priorities, including modernization and renovation of schools and colleges, though how much is unclear, because Congress decided not to specify a dollar figure.
The Education Department will distribute the money as quickly as it can over the next couple of years.
And it adds $25 billion extra to No Child Left Behind and special education programs, which help pay teacher salaries, among other things.
This money may go out much more slowly; states have five years to spend the dollars, and they have a history of spending them slowly. In fact, states don't spend all the money; they return nearly $100 million to the federal treasury every year.
The stimulus bill also includes more than $4 billion for the Head Start and Early Head Start early education programs and for child care programs.

PTO To Reexamine Fujitsu's Patent In DRAM Dispute
According to a patent office determination issued at the end of July, a prior art patent, U.S. Patent Number 5,739,909, raises "a substantial new question of patentability" as to certain claims in Fujitsu's patent document.

One bike. One. That's what plenty of our customers ask for. One bike to do everything well. It seems to be asking for too much. But it isn't.
The FX S 6 does lots of things well, and it does them with a surprisingly low price tag.
It does light weight really well, thanks to Trek's own 400 Series OCLV carbon fiber found throughout the frame. An astonishingly low weight for such a strong chassis makes the FX S 6 nimble and quick, especially in the hills. Adding to the lightness is an IsoSpeed decoupler found at the seat tube/top tube juncture. This pivot element allows the frame's seat tube to flex vertically while still retaining all the torsional stiffness needed for hard, out-of-the-saddle efforts. Rough roads, railway crossings and pavement transitions are no longer tooth-rattling moments of torture for those seeking a buttery ride. The shaped down tube, super-strong BB90 bottom bracket and E2 tapered head tube all work in concert to enhance torsional strength while eliminating power-robbing flex. Known as Power Transfer Construction, this set of features was debuted on racing machines made for the Spring Classics. On the FX S 6, it keeps the bike feeling quick with every pedal stroke, even when the going gets steep. The tapered steerer also adds an extra dash of precision to the bikes steering and braking, helping to make the FX S 6 a better descender and a safer bike under hard braking. Closed Convert thru-axles front and rear also add to the bike's ability to leap forward with every effort put through the pedals. The fit of the FX S 6 is more upright than many "road hybrids", allowing the bike to fit a wider range of riders and flexibilities.
The FX S 6 is useful and practical, with features like vanishing front and rear fender mounts and a Blendr acessory mount for lights or a computer at the stem. An aperture for a DuoTrap speed/cadence sensor (sold separately) is found in the left chainstay. There's even a 3S integrated chain keeper to prevent chain drops and messy fingers.
Going uphill is also something the FX S 6 can help a rider do well. With Shimano's 11-speed 105 derailleurs, 50/34T compact crankset and 11-32T cassette, the FX S 6 brings a huge gearing range to the party. Steep inclines and challenging commutes are no longer to be feared, especially with a bike that weighs less than 21 pounds! Fingertip shifting and adjustable-reach brake levers make for easy operation of the FX S 6. Lightweight alloy Bontrager wheels are Tubeless-ready, and are shod with 25mm Bontrager AW2 Hard-Case Lite tires for confident grip an easy acceleration. Shimano hydraulic disc brakes ensure effective stopping power, even in wet and sloppy conditions. A Bontrager Paradigm R saddle, carbon seatpost, IsoZone handlebar and accessory-ready Blendr stem complete this amazing do-it-all bike.

Dollhouse Lives!
You might not have heard the news on Friday night, probably because you were out doing whatever it is you're usually doing on Friday nights instead of watching Dollhouse — but Dollhouse is being renewed! The official announcement won't come until Fox's upfront presentation today, but HR reports that Fox has ordered thirteen more episodes of Joss Whedon's abysmally rated, loyally TiVo'd Eliza Dushku–starring actioner to air next fall. The decision is said to have been based on the series' high viewership on Hulu and DVR, the historic success of sci-fi shows on DVD, and the fact that Fox execs just liked the show. Since Dollhouse is very likely the worst-rated network drama ever to be renewed, Whedon has reportedly agreed to a reduced budget for upcoming episodes, though that shouldn't be a problem if Fox doesn't demand that he shoot them twice this time. And there's more good news! Dollhouse will get a better lead-in this fall, since the ratings-terminating Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles has just been canceled.

While it is true that a timeshare contract is a binding legal document, it is often mistakenly thought that such a contract cannot only be cancelled. In fact, most timeshare companies maintain that their contracts are non – cancellable. This misconception is perpetuated by timeshare companies and user groups that are funded, maintained and controlled by the timeshare industry.
The FHA 203k loan program provides home buyers the opportunity to buy and fix up a property, without exhausting their personal savings.
What about the thousands that were fired? They should get their jobs back with back pay
Why should they get their jobs back? I thought they were fired for having opened fraudulent accounts.
Great that a big bank finally takes the blame for its wrong doing. What about the executive management staff, EVPs etc? They should be fired as well. Just As Washington Mutuals EVP staff was eliminated after Craig Davis.

Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers defend Founding Fathers from Trump's comments
Jimmy Fallon stopped by Saturday Night Live: Weekend Update Summer Edition as George Washington. He came on to defend America's first president against comments Donald Trump made comparing Washington to Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee. Trump was making the argument that if people are tearing down Confederate statues now, they might start tearing down George Washington and Thomas Jefferson statues next because the two men also owned slaves.
Founding Fathers Crush Confederate General
Jimmy made it clear that Washington was nothing like Lee, saying, "I created this country; he tried to tear it apart. I rebelled against England, he rebelled against America." When Michael Che pointed out that Washington owned slaves, Jimmy said that it was wrong, and then added, "If you want to talk about owning slaves, talk about Thomas Jefferson." Right then, Seth Meyers, who was dressed as Thomas Jefferson, slid in next to Jimmy. Seth wasn't going to let Trump put the Founding Fathers in the same category as Lee, saying, "We have all done bad things. The difference between us and Robert E. Lee is we did good things. I wrote the Declaration of Independence." Jimmy then said, "Not to be a jerk, but I won my war," and Seth added, "I'm sorry, Robert E. Lee, but I prefer generals who win wars."
In the end, the "presidents" decided that they didn't need statues of themselves, because their legacy is America itself. Plus, they already receive the highest honor possible, Jimmy said: "A three-day weekend when all Americans get 50% off all mattresses."

Preserving Vegetables & Fruits
( Originally Published Early 1900's )
TURNIPS, BEETS, ETC.—To Keep Nicely in Cellars for Winter Use. Applicable to all Kinds of Roots and Large Fruits.
—All kinds of roots keep better in the cellar by throwing fresh dirt over them; but turnips and beets especially keep much better for this, as they soon wilt and lose their freshness without it. Put in barrels, if it is too unhandy to thus cover them on the floor, by putting dirt in the bottom, and a layer every few inches, the roots not to come out to the sides by an inch at least, and then 5 or 6 inches of dirt on top. Large casks or boxes will do as well, and be less trouble. Some people do not put any earth in until the barrel is filled to within
6 inches of the top, then shake in dry sand, or dry road-dust, and cover with the same, or fresh earth. Only such as are wanted for winter use are treated in this way, the others stand in root-pits, ventilated as seen under that head.
"A cellar," says a writer " that is cool dry, dark and well ventilated, is the best place for preserving potatoes in large quantities. When smaller quantities are to be preserved there is nothing like dry sand. The same may be said of fruits and roots of all sorts." See below.
This is fully confirmed by the next item, so far as lemons and oranges are concerned, from a California paper.
2. Fruit Packing, Lemons, Oranges, Sweet Potatoes, etc., by Sand, Effectual for, as Done at Los Angeles, Cal.-" The citrus, or lemon men, of Los Angeles," says the correspondent, " have made a discovery of great value to Florida." [Then why not to every place, or man who desired to keep fruit, sweet potatoes, etc., any considerable time, for any purpose?] " dry sand," he goes on to say, " is the best packing for lemons and oranges. The fruit must touch the sand. Experience (is our best teacher) warrants keeping for 5 months at least. The dry sand has absorbing power that apparently takes up all exudations subject to decomposition, the rind being very porous. Naturally the thoughtful mind suggests that, on the same principle, dry sand must have similar preservative effect on other fruits, such as pears, plums, nectarines, apples, and other smooth-skinned varieties."
Remarks.—Yes, that is just what the principle does teach. If dry sand will keep lemons and oranges for 5 months, it will do the same with apples and the other fruits he names, and sweet potatoes as well, and every other fruit which perishes from the outside from natural dampness or from dampness arising from the rotting of the skin, which is the way most fruits, sweet potatoes, etc., do decay, as well as from slight bruising, which everyone must be careful not to do.
Root Pits, To Ventilate.—A gentleman of Oswego county, New York, "J. T.," writes to Farm and Fireside, of Springfield, O., of the importance of ventilating root pits. He says: "I have found, by costly experience, that it is not safe to pile a great quantity of roots together and cover with earth, unless some means of ventilation is provided, such as by carrying one or more pipes, made of drain tile set on end, or narrow boards nailed together, from the -center of the heap to the surface. These pipes may be loosely plugged with -straw, which will prevent the entrance of frost. I once lost several wagon loads of beets, during a December thaw, by neglecting this precaution."
Remarks.—This accounts for many " holes" of potatoes and other roots I have seen rotted, undoubtedly, for want of ventilation, I should prefer the small board box, in place of pipes, to run down well into the heap and have holes bored into the sides, to carry off the moisture clear up to the top of the heap, because if there is moisture at the top, the rotting will begin, and thus run downwards, by dripping from the rotting ones, and spoil all.
FRUIT, EGGS, Etc.-Kept well by Cold Storage.-The Science Of American. gives us the following practical fact upon this important point. It says the increasing use of cold storage for perishable food stuffs, which are-apt to be scarce at certain seasons, is one of the characteristics of the time. Last summer when fresh eggs were plentiful and cheap, a gentleman in Chenango county, N. Y., stored in a mammoth cooler some 5,000 barrels of eggs. Now they sell in this city as "fresh laid" eggs, at a large profit. As the eggs. are removed, the cooler is filled up with ducks and other fowl to be sold next spring.
Remarks.—This plan is certainly practicable, and has been done for some time past. It is done by means of ice. I think there is a patent on some forms of the coolers, but I have no doubt a good mechanic can get up a plan with an ice house that would be effectual, and not be an infringement. See other Plans of Preserving Eggs also.
STORING CELERY— For Spring Use.—The Germantown Telegraph says: " We have tried most ways, but prefer this one, followed for many years. A trench is dug from 12 to 15 inches in depth and as long as may be suitable. Place the roots in this singly, side by side, at an angle— that is, leaning somewhat ; three inches of soil are packed against them then another line of stalks, until the bed is as large as may be convenient for covering, when another, if required, can be made. The soil should be added until within 6 inches of the top of the stalks; then a layer of straw, then a layer of dry leaves; the whole to have a good board covering, to keep out water. Of course, rather high ground for the bed, or beds, should be selected, and a trench dug around the bed deeper than the bottom of the celery trenches, so ruade as to be sure to carry off all the water. If this plan is followed strictly, all others may be abandoned, as the celery will keep not only till spring, but as long in spring as may be desired, if it is not all eaten beforehand."

WHITE-GLOVE TREATMENT: Parfums Christian Dior will open a full-fledged beauty institute in Paris' Plaza Athénée hotel in July. The LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton-owned brand chose the locale for its luxury positioning and proximity to Dior's flagship, also on the swanky Avenue Montaigne. Meantime, the brand's beauty consultants are busy concocting high-end treatments for exclusive use in the institute, which will replace a gym and hammam. Dior — which has tested hands-on treatments already in its cabin in Paris' Le Bon Marché department store — plans to open further beauty institutes in deluxe hotels.
BRAINS AND BEAUTY: Ahead of his couture show Monday night, Giorgio Armani dispatched copies of "Inheriting Beauty," the latest book by photographer Roger Moenks with Armani's niece Roberta on its cover. Among the 90 notable women featured are Delphine Arnault-Gancia, Francesca Versace and Vivia Ferragamo. Each photo, taken in their homes, is accompanied by a favorite childhood snap. Actress Kiera Chaplin is seen dancing with her grandfather Charlie, for instance. "All the women impressed me," said Moenks, adding, "Roberta embodies style and grace. Her picture is very iconic and represents a very free-thinking woman." There will be a signing in Armani's New York store when the book goes on sale in February.
A TALL ORDER: It's a good thing the front row at a fashion show offers lots of legroom. Among the towering figures expected at Valentino's swan song couture show in Paris Wednesday night are Uma Thurman and Gwyneth Paltrow, plus five models also gifted in the vertical department: Nadja Auermann, Claudia Schiffer, Karolina Kurkova, Eva Herzigova and Karen Mulder. Also expected at the farewell show, to be staged in a tent in the gardens of the Musée Rodin, are about 100 Valentino employees who are flying in to bid farewell to the Roman couturier. Last week, all the seamstresses in the couture atelier had their portraits taken with the designer — framed to take home for posterity.
Meanwhile, Valentino won't be staying still once he hangs up his scissors. He's heading to Brazil for Carnival to celebrate the birthday of longtime business partner Giancarlo Giammetti and also to Russia for a charity event headed by model Natalia Vodianova.

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Leave it to Giorgio Armani — who had Beyoncé Knowles, Jay-Z, Kelly Rowland and Ludacris at his men's shows in Milan last week — to keep the celebrity ball rolling. Among the bold-faced names expected at his Armani Privé couture show Monday night are Hilary Swank, Ellen Pompeo from "Grey's Anatomy" and up-and-coming British actress Rebecca Hall.
