at worst item that worked My first dominating flare-up was triggered through fucking after a UTI. I presumably went to the doctor 5-6 times getting different antibiotics in requital for the infection b/c it felt like it wasn't prospering away, it was just getting worse. The mould couple of times they weren't able to hawkshaw a UTI, so they referred me to a urologist and she confirmed that it was IC, not a persistent infection. She wanted to do a cystoscopy to rule in sight cancer, but I hadn't heard anything unmistakable less the pick up where one left off result from in the forums so I was disinclined to outside to the $1500 looking for the formal diagnosis. At this unceasingly a once my symptoms were pretty severe. It was on my recollection all the time. Sitting for sustained periods made it worse, but nothing seemed to make it better. Sex was non-functioning of the mistrust and I often worried that I'd not at all maintain making love again. All in all, a catchy disconsolate familiarity which went on because about 3 months. After seeing the urologist and realizing that she couldn't undeniably help me, I turned to the antibiotics b/c at least some people were getting forbear from them. I had noticed that my IC symptoms would make larger after the UTI antibiotic treatments but then would get worse a span days after stopping them. If I took the proper antibiotics for a longer epoch of lifetime it seemed like it would free or at least proffer some measure of relief when charming them. I ordered augmentin from an online pharmacy that I rest at drugbuyers.com, purposes clickdrugs or medsmex. I didn't bother asking the doctors for a instruction as this wasn't the law route of treatment. I fantasize the urologist was more apt to put me on pain pills indefinitely than give me weeks good of antibiotics. I can't muse on what the dosage was, but I remember intriguing them during 3 weeks to a month. The side effects do start to catch up with you (disorientation/depression), but my symptoms had cleared up charming well when I stopped. I remember my symptoms improving after a scattering days and then drop by drop one more time a scarcely any weeks.

Saturday midnight will be the end of fast. The feast will begin!
We're going to see a stone oven. There will be fire, but only with sticks. Done in this old stone oven will bring the villagers the Easter meat to cook. Certainly it is known that the Soli Easter custom in Greece wants the lamb on the spit. But in Sifnos the lamb will cook you a clay pot. What else could we imagine when Sifnos is known for its unique pottery. This ceramic mastello call it here.
This mastello will stay in the oven 3 to 4 hours. Within this earthen vessel lay, then, the lamb with dill and red wine. This job can take on even the confectioners.
It is irrelevant whether at home or in the tavern, Easter Saturday, after church, all over Greece will eat soup. This is a special soup that is basically only for this day called magiritsa.

Sambucus the life saver
We have a child who as a toddler suffered badly with chest infections. We used to depended on conventional medicine to get him through as often the most simple of colds would result in asthma. . After an extended period of antibiotics his immune was shot. We are now re-educated as a result, to the power of organic and natural remedies. Sambucus is the one remedy we depend and surpasses everything else! Caught quickly enough, that little cough or sniffle is turned around and sent away, just after two or three days! We don't understand why or how Sambucus works but it does. it's not just a remedy for our child but also for us parents too. We have learnt that we need to complete a four a day dose for five days to completely nullify any cold germs. We don't take it as an immune booster we only use it as a medication. Highly recommend.

Since the ASCP took over the popular and progressive NCA in 2009, I have periodically received emails from medical lab professionals not happy with the merger for various reasons. Prompted by this overwhelming response, I have previously blogged about this subject. I have also addressed the mixed response to the move.
Recently I have been receiving emails again, but in much larger numbers this time around. One particularly distressed email writer has prompted me to address the issue once more. This laboratorian (an NCA certificant with credentials converted to MLS by ASCP) indicated that she missed the February deadline for recertification with ASCP and received a dunning letter telling her she was no longer licensed (sic) by ASCP.
She is currently unemployed and is worried that when she applies for a job and a prospective employer tries to verify her credentials they will see that NCA is defunct and ASCP will say she is "not licensed."
To address her issue I first have to reiterate that those of us in the profession often misuse and/or misunderstand 3 terms with very different meanings. The uses of "licensed/not licensed" above are direct quotes from this lady.
Certification is a voluntary credential offered by a nongovernmental agency. Generally you have to have a certain academic qualification and may need to sit an exam. On meeting those requirements, you get certified. The most common certifications we have been familiar with over the years include MT, CLS and now MLS (and related credentials). All these are voluntary even if industry standards say you must have those to have a reasonably good chance of getting hired. Credentials are not mandatory
Licensure is a governmental requirement that an individual must meet in order to carry out an activity. Think about a hunting license or a driver's license. It is illegal to carry out certain activities without them. There are only a few states that currently have professional licensure for medical lab science. States may choose to offer their own exams, they may accept licensure from another state (reciprocity or waiver); or they may even choose to "deem" a certification as equivalent to licensure. In any event, if you dont have a piece of paper from the state, you do not have a license.
You must have a license to practice in the state, you must renew your license periodically, it can be revoked, it can expire and you can be criminally charged if you practice without it. Think about physicians, attorneys, nurses, pharmacists to understand this concept.
The lady referenced above, like many laboratorians I have talked to, incorrectly refer to an ASCP "license." The ASCP is not a state of the union. You cannot be forced to get an MT, MLT or MLS and will not be arrested and charged if you try to work without an ASCP credential.
Membership is voluntary association with like individuals for a common good. Think of the Boy Scouts or your church or social club. There are some requirements for membership, but joining is voluntary and (generally) so is the option to discontinue membership. Membership may address common interests, but does not offer any special professional right to practice. You can practice whether you are a member of an organization or not.
What complicates matters is that over the years several professional entities have "double dipped" and tried to offer both certification and membership e.g. ASCP and AMT. It is important to realize these organizations have chosen to offer 2 services each. The defunct NCA offered just certification (and recertification through demonstrated competency). It did not offer membership. ASCLS offers membership only; it does not offer certification.
The distress of my correspondents (the lady above is only one of several) is that ASCP is now threatening to revoke their certification unless they pay a fee. If an employer inquires and a credentialed individual has not sent in their check, ASCP will indicate the lapsed individual is "invalid" and not certified.
Think about your college telling you if you don't contribute to their alumni fund you can no longer claim to have a bachelor's degree from the college. ASCP says give me a couple hundred dollars (for recertification and reinstatement) or you can no longer use our credentials after your name. Without it we will tell those who enquire that you are not certified.
It seems to me a more accurate and honest designation would be "lapsed" or "did not recertify" or even "not currently on active register."
Without this distinction (not certified versus credentialed but not currently paid up), I am totally sympathetic to those who see recertification as a financial burden (separate from competency assurance); or a demand to pay for the privilege of using a credential. If you don't pay, you cannot use the credential which you earned honestly. It is difficult to choose not to pay up because without the credential it is difficult to obtain or retain a job.
This is surely an emotional subject if the individuals emailing me are typical. What's your take on this issue?
In New York state we have to have a license and no one likes to pay. Everyone complains, but at least you know that only real MT/MLS will be working beside you. That is why I think the license is worth it. It is to protect us as professionals and also to protect the patient.
I have friends and relatives who are nurses and pharmacists. We all passed our boards after college. Now we all pay for our licences, we have to renew our license and we all get to work legally. That makes perfect sense.
As far as ASCP or any other organization. I think once you pass the boards the title is yours. You passed it, how can they take it away? They should not charge you just to keep using the title. That is crazy! I think it is all a money game.
I can say I have a NY license to work. With your ASCP it does not guarantee you anything and you could be "old ASCP" with no continuing education or "new ASCP" with CEUs and paid up dues. What's the difference to an employer? Nothing, except one costs you money and requires work on your behalf. The other one costs you nothing but have the same benefits.
This is another reason w eneed license all over the country to avoid craziness like this from different organizations that just want your money for basically nothing. If you pay you should have something to show for it.
Thank you Ms Tanabe for responding on behalf of ASCP. I still have more questions than answers though.
To most people ASCP is ASCP. I didnt know there was like a member branch and a certification division. That is very good, but I bet most folks dont know that.
The other thing is that it seems strange to me hat you all would require only SOME people to become MLS/CM. That makes it seem like 2 different classes. So the more recent people have to keep up to date but the older folks dont need to do anything to remain ASCP. You could help by having a cut off date for everyone to get up to speed. Everyone should have to become MLS. That would be fair and less confusing too.
Also you still offer MT (ASCPi) not MLS to foreign trained people. My understanding is that many people overseas use the name biomedical science or medical lab science. They dont use medical technology. So why not make MLS the new title for everyone (old, new, US citizens, foreigners) instead of still using some MT and some MLS. That is confusing.
The last thing is I dont know how you can legally remove someone's title that they have earned just because they dont pay their fees. This is especially unfair when the old MT(ASCP) dont have to do anythingt o keep their title for life.
Please respond. Thank you.
I like the idea of AMT for the most part. Now that they finally accept a bachelors degree they are on par with the rest of the professional organizations. I dont like that they seem to certify so many professions. But they are med techs, which is good. So I think they could do the profession a huge favor by taking over where NCA left off.
AMT, why not accept all the old NCA folks as AMT members. You could change the name to CLS for everyone (both old NCA CLS members and the current MT/AMT people). You could even accept MT/ASCP. That way you could have a HUGE organization of CLS. Standardize the name and unify the profession. From now on call your exams CLS and CLT exams.
So AMT would make money and most of us in the profession would be happy. They would give ASCP a run for their money at less cost and the name CLS would become the ONE name of the profession and be well known.
The current AMT members (at least the lab folks) would have nothing to fear. They can be grandfathered and get to use the same title as everyone else CLS and CLT. The non-lab people (medical assistant, med record clerks, dental assistants eetc etc) would not be affected in any way
Hey AMT you listening? How about that? Sounds like a win/win to me.
The following is a response to the comments posted regarding the ASCP Board of Certification from W. Rae Rader, MPA, PA(ASCP)CM – Chair, ASCP BOC Board of Governors and
Patricia A. Tanabe, MPA, MLS(ASCP)CM, Executive Director , ASCP BOC
The ASCP Board of Certification (BOC) has long been concerned with improving the initial certification process and assuring the continued competence of medical laboratory personnel. The 2004 ASCP BOC Certification Maintenance Program (CMP) grew out of our 1997 voluntary competency recognition program. The goal of the CMP is to demonstrate to the public that laboratory professionals with this designation are performing activities to stay current in their practice. Individuals certified after January 1, 2004 in entry-level categories and after January 1, 2006, in specialist and diplomat level categories are required to participate in certification maintenance in order to maintain their certification status. Certification maintenance requires demonstration of continuing education requirements. The Certification Maintenance Program is designed to complement and support the existing and emerging continuing competence requirements of regulatory entities, employers and external accrediting bodies. Certification is now time limited. If you fail to maintain your credential through continuing education your certification will expire. (www.ascp.org/cmp)
The ASCP BOC is the only certifying body of laboratory professionals accredited by ANSI under ISO 17024. In 2007, ASCP BOC MLS, MLS/MT and PBT certification programs were accredited by ANSI. Today, all 20 of our US certification programs are accredited through ANSI. ANSI requires continuing education as part of a certifying body's program to determine continued competence.
On July 21, 2009, the ASCP Board of Registry (BOR) and the National Credentialing Agency for Laboratory Personnel (NCA) signed an agreement forming a single certification agency for medical laboratory professionals. The newly formed agency is called the ASCP Board of Certification (BOC). The ASCP BOC is an administratively independent organization (as was the ASCP Board of Registry) with a Board of Governors (BOG), who is the final authority on all certification decisions. The majority of the members on the BOG are non-physicians, as the board has been for over 30 years. The BOC Board of Governors is composed of 3 Sponsoring Societies (ASCP, ASCLS and AGT), 8 Participating Societies and one public member. All of the laboratory professional societies on the board have membership functions. ASCP BOC is a credentialing organization (certification, certification maintenance and verification) and does not have membership or education functions as this would be in conflict with our ANSI accreditation. (http://www.ascp.org/Functional-Nav/About-the-Board-of-Certification)
So, does this mean if you're ASCP you belong to a "higher class" and if AMT "lower class" kind???....... Say, most of the AMT'ers have a Bachelor degrees in MT can't they be the same level as the ASCP'ers?? (MLS/MT)?.......... I was only wondering, why is there's a lot of certification for MT........ I just only wish that ASCP also too AMT just like in NCA.....
I am a CLT, NCA on the job trained in the mid-seventies. Few, medical lab. personnel were willing to relocate to our reservation. Several, individuals, including myself started training as medical lab. techs. on a volunteer basis, our noon meals were provided by the hospital. I did not consider myself to be a dog in training, only someone who would be able to provide needed services to my native people.
In 1985, I, took the NCA (CLT) exam to prove to myself my abilities as a lab. tech. NCA did not require MONEY (MEGA) for membership in their organization, just continuing education.
I have challenged the HHS MT exam, failed by two points.
In my years, as a lab. tech. I WITNESSED some certified lab. personnel, who have made mistakes, made questionable decisions. These individuals accepted, unacceptable specimens for analysis, just to avoid conflict with nurses, and doctors.
Many, ASCP, MLTs, MTs, have given me remarks, that they were better than all other lab personnel. AMT certified techs. I have worked with are not as bad as ASCP certified.
I, Thank the Med. Tech, who was certified MT, ASCP, who trained me to be a Lab. Tech. She knew, the needs of the remote area at the time.
Thank You, Glenda Price, and (NCA), you had a good organization.
When I passed the exam, I walked with confidence in ME.
I've been ASCP for the duration, mainly because it seemed like the most common certification at the time and the Med Tech program I attended encouraged this one. I believe that ASCP began requiring continuing education for anyone certified after 2004. The merger with NCA and ASCP occurred in 2009 (as far as I can tell). I think ASCP had already moved to requiring continuing education for their own certification prior to merging with NCA and just kept the NCA requirements as they had always been. I actually think ASCP should require continuing ed for all their certifications, pre-2004. In a field such as ours, I believe continuing education is very important and should be required.
We have state licensure and state required continuing education, but I haven't paid the extra money to ASCP to get the "CM" after my name, even though I have the continuing ed.
Thank you for writing this. This is a very important and interesting subject.
I agree with Jon 100%. ASCP just changed itself to get NCA to close. Then once they got all the NCA folks ASCP created different rules for former NCA credential holders. They just want a cash cow. Many MT(ASCP) individuals can continue to use their credential from 50 years ago without paying a dime or doing 1 hour of CEU. How unfair is that.
Renee also hit the nail on the head. Does the public know their hairdresser, contractor, plumber (and virtually) everyone they see in their doctor's office must have a license but the person who tests their sample and gives life-or-death yes/no, disease/no disease results does not need a license?
Warren: You are correct. Some things get lost sometimes in rushing to press or in editing. The titles MT, CLS and MLS are NOT organizations, but, rather, are the credentials offered by certification /credentialing agencies.
The fact that ASCP prior to merging with NCA, never had continuing education mandatory, and once the MLT or MT got their certificate they could use that title ad infinitum, even without paying their annual dues; still allows their MT's to use MT(ASCP) and NOT REQUIRE the CM like they do everyone else since NCA merger, shows the lack of unity within their own organization.
I also get the "feeling" that MT's consider MLT's less in the scheme of laboratory science. The MLT's know how to perform all the testing that the MT does. Let's not belittle them. We may have more theory, but what good is that really in the workplace?
I totally agree that we all should unite, and be one voice, one certification, and maybe then be able to assert our ideas better and pressure the Pathologist's hold to lessen in the Clinical Laboratory. We should be like the Nurses with one ALN, or NLN, not 4 or 5 different agencies trying to tout that they represent our best interests.
Glen states: "Certification agencies we have been familiar with over the years include MT, CLS and now MLS (and related credentials)."
Did you leave out the agencies and substitute in their place the credentials that they offer?
CLIA's new take on licensure and certifcation makes the point moot unless one works in a state where a laboratory license is required. Those of us who 'survey' (often read as 'inspect') labs have been directed to accept only educational documentation, not certificates or licenses. In other words, for moderately complex testing one must have the minimum of a high school diploma, GED or transcripts w/date of graduation on file. For highly complex testing, the associate or bachelor degree in laboratory science or transcripts with the requisite number of credits in bilology, chemistry, and other sciences. And of course, documentation of training and competency for all.
Very pertinent topic here. It is amazing to me that in the state of NJ where I work, one needs a license to cut hair (no offense to hair stylists) but not to work as tech in the laboratory. I believe that the lack of standardization in mandatory licensure has led to frustration in the laboratory field due to lack of respect & knowedge about what it takes to be competent & work in the clinical laboratory. Also wages have remained stagnant, causing people to leave the field.
1.) RMT- studied hardiest after college
2.) AMT- studied hardier
3.) RT (CSMLS)- studied hard
4.) MLS (ASCP)- hardly study- will never renew!
I will just say 4 simple things and be done:
1. We need to choose one name and go with it. Our use of various names (MT, CLS, MLS, tech, lab tech, Med tech etc etc.) continue to confuse employers. Even those in the profession seem to be confused
2. We need diffeerent scope of practice based on education and credential. Why do some employers use MLTs/CLTs just like MTs/CLSs? Think about the task you need done and hire accordingly.
3. Until there is licensure there will be folks who will go the easier cheaper route. Why pay more, when you can pay uncertified folks less?
4. Slavery was abolished a long time ago. Why do some of us still choose to let doctors (a different profession completely) control us. Can you imagine if someone tried to control doctors?
Ever since I heard that ASCP was taking over NCA and changing the name I have wondered why another organization does not take over all the CLS. The name is well known and is very popular now.
We dont need to create a new name. We just need someone to grandfather the old NCA folks and then continue from there certifying more CLS/CLTs. Leave ASCP to their mess.
I am ASCP member and have never recertified or whatever they call it. I use my MT(ASCP) after my name. I also know other colleagues who do that.
It seems to me ASCP has started something new. They never asked me to renew anything and dont charge me. I passed my ASCP boards in 1971. My colleagues around the same age dont have to pay any fees either. No one questioned our ASCP title. Times have changed I know. But it does not sound right to ask for a fee every year to keep using ASCP and I cant imagine why only some people have to pay it.
Is Christopher saying that AMT does the same too? Do they take your title away if you dont pay annual dues?
Time to retire with all this craziness.
Thanks for weighing in on this matter which, as you can see from the responses, is a very sensitive and passionate issue to hard working laboratorians.
I thought it important to once again distinguish among terms which are often used interchangeably and therefore add to the confusion of employers and HR folks who are outside of the profession.
AMT does offer 2 services which are distinct in nature, definition and purpose; many professionals (inside and outside of healthcare) receive membership and credentialing services from separate organizations. AMT is also a little unique because it has both laboratorian and nonlaboratorian members despite the "MT" part of its moniker.
I was extremely happy when AMT became accredited by NCCA because it requires adherence to specific standards for both certification and re-certification. NCCA is concerned with ensuring true professional competence, in my view.
AMT is also not controlled by members of another profession. That is a hugely important distinction from ASCP. Requirement of the bachelor's degree as benchmark for the MT/CLS/MLS level practitioner also brings AMT in line with other organizations.
My sense is that professionals are proud of demonstrating their competence and will gladly pay as long as they can be assured an organization is looking out for the interests of its members/certificants and is offering value for money.
"No taxation without representation and value," is what I am hearing laboratorians say.
Thanks, Glen, for the helpful reminder on the differences between licensure and certification.%0d%0a%0d%0aTo respond to some of the other commentary in your post: AMT certainly doesn't view itself as somehow "double-dipping." AMT strongly advocates continuing professional development throughout a certificant's career and we therefore combine membership and certification into one package. While other organizations, in addition to a separate membership fee, charge a fee at the time of recertification, AMT simply asks for an annual maintenance fee, which includes a host of membership benefits along with it. As far as recertification goes, AMT is accredited by the National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCCA) and as such we are required to have a recertification program in place – recertification certainly it is not some kind of a scheme to extract monies from our certified population but part of the credentialing industry's efforts to ensure continued competency among professional practitioners.%0d%0a%0d%0aI might also add the reminder, particularly in light of some of the responses to your post, that one of the principles on which AMT was founded in 1939 was the notion that there was value in having a self-governing organization of medical technologists. Everyone on AMT's Board of Directors (except for our public member) is an allied health professional, mostly medical technologists but also three medical assistants, we are not under the umbrella of an MD-pathologist organization and have deliberately chosen not to be. Also, AMT has for a number of years now adhered to the standard that a baccalaureate degree is a mandatory minimal education requirement for the credential of medical technologist: MT (AMT).%0d%0a
ASCP has always used great marketing. First they market themselves as the best, then they downplay everyone else.
It was only a matter of time before they drove NCA out of business. ASCP is run by pathologists, CAP is run by pathologists, labs are run by pathologists. So guess who will win everytime?
We had a shot of governing ourselves with NCA but then we let ASCP shut that down.
Gary in AZ is not the only one who is confused. ASCP has added to the confusion with MT, MLS, SBB, C, MT (i) and many more. If we cant keep it straight how will employers? I have a friend who was an MLT and then got her MT. She had a hard time with HR the first year because she did not renew her MLT. The policy was to renew whatever paper certification had expired and she happened to become MT allowing her MLT to expire. They had no idea MT is a higher form of MLT. Hellooo!
Now ASCP allows some folks to keep the MT (ASCP) while others are MLS. This is the same certification mind you. I know even employers (lab managers and directors) who dont know that. One new MLS I know had to change her certificate to MT on her application because that is what the job asked for.
The lady who offered her a job at a big Atlanta hospital accused her of lying on her application because she said MT(ASCP) and then turned up with her MLS certificate at the interview. She had to get a letter from ASCP explaining her MLS (ASCP) was basically MT(ASCP). Crazy!
Richard and Robert:
OJT training can be OK sometimes. But there is no standard. there are lots of people out there with knowledge equivalent to a bachelor's or an MLS or whatever. But without some kind of standardized training and testing you cannot be sure they really are.
To Robert: "That is like training a dog to do tricks." I've heard that ridiculous remark way to often in reference to OJT.
1. It implies that lab testing can be accomplished by performing simple procedures that don't require technique,thought, judgement etc. That's not true.
2. It implies that education isn't part of OJT. Not true.
A good job performance evaluation includes how competent a person can physically perform a task, think independently and judge a procedures' validity. Here is your standard.
A good OJT program provides education with manipulation of apparatus. Here is your continuing education.
OJT is easier to update, making it more flexible and more progressive.
To be sure, a base of virtually unchanging knowledge is needed to start, but the majority of competency is reflected on the job, by a good job performance evaluation.
The trouble with our profession is not "saying we just need to be able to do the job", it's having one authority telling us they don't care if we passed an exam to prove competency given by a different authority, in order to work we must pass their exam because they're better. I am comfortable with the federal government's authority. I believe the DHHS has the best resources available to decide competency. I know this belief is not popular, but I think we need to trust in our own elections.
Tiin in Winter Haven. I dont understand your question. What does that mean? You want AMT lab directors not to accept ASCP? ASCP pathologist are way too poweful for that to happen. If you mean why AMT did not join with with ASSCP liek NCA did I think ASCP did not want them. Not all AMT techs have degrees. ASCP would not go for that.
To Richard: You mean it's OK to take a high school kid or medical assistant and train them to do lab test? You might get an exceptional one who can do the test you train them to do. That is like training a dog to do tricks. But we do need some standards- we need both education and certification. We need continuing education also.
Saying we just need to be able to DO on the job is why we are in so much trouble as a profession. What about thinking? Making judgment calls etc??
That being said I think ASCP is just arrogant to even think they are better than any other organization.
What I wonder about is all the different certification categories , for example, technologist in Chem, Hemo, etc.. Doesn't MLS certification cover all those? Or is just those that only want certification in those areas? Or is like the SBB with specialized training?
Can ASCP unified with AMT too???...... So that AMT'ers will not take ASCP for requirement purposes on job hunting...... Just a thought!
Certifications or licensures are a weak and misleading measure of competency. Verifiable JOB PERFORMANCE should be the gold standard for competency. However, I think many educational institutions fear such a standard might exclude them. My suggestion to them is lose the protectionism and promote the truth.
I am not sure that is legal. How can ASCP say you are not ASCP if you are. I dont think we should let them get away with that mess. It is kind of ironic that ASCP resisted continuing education for a long time. Only NCA required CEUs to re-register. They really cared about continued competency.
ASCP was registration for life. You never had to crack open a book to keep your registration. Now they are going the other way. Money scheme?
What a scam. I was totally against that unification. We all want unity but those of us who have been around for awhile know what ASCP is like.
They are run by pathologists and have fought AMT, ASCLS and other organizations. They want to run the lab and have techs as inferior.
Most lab organizations broke away from ASCP over the years, so why do you ASCP would be any better now? It's all about money for the pathologists and no power for the med techs.
NCA people should have held on to their NCA certificate. it's better to say your organization (NCA) is no longer around but was a strong legitimate organization. I still work with HHS techs although HHS is long gone. Why trade in your good certification to a group like ASCP who offer nothing but take your money. Then they have the nerve to say if you dont keep paying they will take it away.
Sounded like a scam from the start and it has turned out to be exactly that.

We met up at Cee's home, which is beautifully decorated with Parisian bits everywhere – it's really adorable! We then (in our usual fashion!) gathered around her kitchen island where we gabbed fashion, sipped wine, and ate yummy cakes & fresh strawberries. It was a super fun day. I absolutely love those girls!

Sorry, no etymologies found.
Jurisdictions covered by Section 5 would have to ask the U.S. Justice Department for permission to make any changes in voting procedures—literally anything from one municipality annexing another to changes in polling-place locations.
As it stands, the American voting system is a worrisome mess, a labyrinth of local, state and federal laws spotted with bewildered volunteers, harried public officials, partisan distortions, misdesigned forms, malfunctioning machines and polling-place confusion.
When going toe-to-toe in polling-place parking lots or back rooms with ranchers and political-party operatives attempting to prevent Native American citizens from casting ballots, he's needed every inch and ounce, along with his encyclopedic knowledge of election law.
Stephanie Woodard: Ready to Rumble: A Lawyer on the Voting-Rights Frontline
We give credit to Curry for mounting a more robust write-in bid than we expected -- though it may have been boosted by polling-place shenanigans.
And any hopes that a prolonged voting period would alleviate need for the traditional, last-minute polling-place madness were dashed last week, when only a trickle of people took advantage of early voting.
Allegations ranging from outright fraud to polling-place disorganization that disenfranchised many Haitians nearly brought the election to a halt.

If only there were a way to ensure that spurious claims of polling-place voter fraud could have disappeared with ACVR.
"The DoJ devoted unprecedented resources to ferreting out polling-place fraud over five years and appears to have found not a single prosecutable case across the country."
As it stands now, however, despite the "win" for the Indiana photo ID law in the US Supreme Court it has been struck down by a state court panel because of the disparate impact on absentee and polling-place voters.

Poker Smarts: Who Else is Holding the CardsMay 23, 2010
Yesterday, I shared my, Three Rules to Live By , when at the poker table. We're going to build on that today and discuss the other people you'll find sitting at that table with you.
In order to be fully honest with you, I do believe in the following idea: "Any poker decision that wins you a hand is not a bad decision at all. It's only a risky one."
You'll find that some of the people you play against will make a decision that you would never make. Then that decision ends up winning a hand and maybe even taking your money.
This does not make the decision a "bad" one.
Repeatedly making questionable decisions does not make someone a "bad" player. Many times it may stem from a lack of knowledge of the game.
It may stem from a player's strategy.
It may depend on that person's mental or physical state.
You'll probably never know completely why someone made that decision, only the outcome.
However, you can take the information given to you in that situation and use it to your advantage.
Lets explore this more in depth as we talk about some of the different kinds of "bad" poker players you may meet.
The "Calling Station"
Regardless of whether you play online, at a casino, or at home, the "Calling Station" is probably the most common type of player that you will run into.
"Calling Stations," are typically the easiest type of player to recognize as well. This player will very rarely, if at all, take control of a hand. They will simply call whatever bet is made at the beginning of the hand and will continue to call if they believe they have a competitive hand.
Regardless, if they start with a strong hand or make a hand after the flop, turn, or river, they will leave the action up to you.
Sometimes it will be frustrating or difficult to play against this person because they always seem to end up with a hand when everything is said and done.
However, keep these tips in mind when you believe that you're up against a "station."
Don't let them play for cheap.
Vary your betting patterns so that the station will never know what is coming up next. This will help keep them out of hands where they have a small amount of outs. This will help protect you against straight and flush draws that could overcome your high pairs or sets.
Make sure you're keeping the pot odds in your favor.
Do not be afraid to bet the size of the pot if your stack allows it. If a player calls a large bet (especially against the size of their stack), they are at a statistical disadvantage, that will pay off for you in end (most of the time.)
Be creative and hesitant about your bluffs.
The "station" is a person that will very easily be able to call you down with a weak pair. They always are able to see the bright side that could come to them, regardless if the odd of it happening are small.
Making a bluff with a marginal hand can be detrimental to you as they may be calling with something that is a little better than yours. Keep in mind.
The odds of your small pair overcoming a pair that's only one number higher than yours is less than 20 percent. This means the station may not recognize their 80 percent chance to win, but will call you anyways and take your money at the end of the hand.
The "Donkey" or "Fish"
The term "Donkey" or "Donk," is just the more modern way of calling another player a "Fish."
You'll see this term around a lot in the chat boxes on poker playing sites.
A "Donkey" is recognizable because they will typically play with any two cards, regardless or their strength or ranking, and take them to the river hoping they'll beat you.
These players can be very frustrating because they typically don't use poker skills to beat you.
They'll make bets that don't seem to make any sense in the situation at the table, while making even less sense when you see what their cards actually are.
They have complete disregard for pot odds and their stack, just throwing chips around in hopes of winning more.
You'll typically find this kind of player in limit or low stake games. You'll also find that many novice poker players will fish for hands as they don't know much more about the game apart from what hands are good.
However, they will usually know what their outs are. You'll hear them talk about having lots of outs or specifically how many outs they had when they start talking after a hand.
If you run into one of these players, make notes on them (especially online.) You need to be prepared if you run into them again.
Here are some strategies when faced with a "Donkey."
Be very selective about your hands.
Be prepared to lay down a typically strong hand so that you can live to play another day.
When you see an erratic betting pattern, play very close attention to the community cards and get out of the way if the board is setting up to allow someone to catch a draw and beat you.
Control your aggressiveness in this situation and catch them when you have them beat.
Don't chase a hand. Be aware of the odds you have.
If you have a straight draw and you need a face card (such as an ace) to make your hand, think not only of the pure odds to get the card, but replay others betting before that point to see if someone might have had that card you needed.
If you have a player or two that called a raise pre-flop but wouldn't call a re-raise, they could very well have been holding a weak ace, thus taking your odds away.
However, the best rule of thumb with a donkey is to make sure that you are playing good hands and letting your betting show this.
Look for people who continually try to steal the blinds, especially when they are out of position. If you have someone raising before the flop, especially early in the game, you are seeing the first of the "Donkey" symptoms. Once you are able to identify these players, you'll be able to compete with them effectively.
Beat them at their own game.
If your stack allows it, be more erratic with your betting patterns. Make a good bluff now and then. Once this type of player becomes confused, they make mistakes very easily and are easy to take care of.
If you are playing a cash game (non tournament,) once you have done damage to these players, get away. Take your money and run. Nothing frustrates this player more while keeping you safe from them.
The "Suck Out"
The "Suck Out" is the player who typically wins their money with straights and flushes.
However, you'll notice that they don't make their hands until the turn, or more frequently, the river.
Many times you won't even see a face card in their hands. These players usually don't know about position and will make their hands because they were able to call a small bet, out of position, and take their suited or connected cards all the way down to the river.
You'll hear these players talking about how they like to play for cheap or that they are really fond of "suited connecters."
However, these players are very easy to get out of their element, as well as very easy to beat heads up with the proper level of aggressiveness.
Remember that everyone had to start out as a beginner. Like we talked about before, many players don't typically look at the poker table while thinking about what's happening at the current moment.
They are thinking about what has to happen in the future in order for them to win. They convince themselves, very easily, that it would be easy to make a hand as long as they get a specific card. However they won't always know the odds. Use this to your advantage.
Play your position well.
If you're in position and you have a person that is typically just calling the minimum before the flop, raise when you're in position and the rest of the table won't be able to take advantage of it.
Eventually, you'll get this type of person so frustrated that they aren't able to play and they'll avoid getting into hands with you because it's not fun.
Keep your head.
I can't stress this enough. If someone does get lucky and beats you when they only had a four percent chance to win after the flop, don't acknowledge it and don't let it make you mad. Go forward and adjust your play so that this doesn't happen again. Always remember that you're gambling.
There is always a risk that you're willing to take if you decide to gamble. Learn from your mistakes and move on.
Don't hope that a weaker hand will turn into something better.
You may have the middle pair and know it's the best hand at that point, but don't continue with the hopes that it will improve unless the odds are on your side (or it's free.)
If you are in a situation where the chances your hand will improve to a winner unlikely, don't trap yourself in a situation where you have chips committed to a losing battle.
The "Tight A**"
The "Tight A**" is a player that is very conservative when it comes to poker.
They don't like to commit themselves to a hand unless they are very sure they have a winner. They will rarely raise, in or out of position.
If they do raise, they will frequently fold to small raises after the flop when they didn't make the hand they were looking for or if the flop looks like someone else could have made their hand.
They won't see many showdowns, but when they do, it typically pays off for them.
These players can become your best friends. Not only can you take a lot of money from them (especially when heads up,) but they can help you recognize what your odds may be.
Know when to fold them, walk away, and/or run.
Like I mentioned above, these players rarely get themselves involved in hand. When they do, they aren't afraid to put chips in because they are confident that they are going to win.
They aren't going to chase, they aren't interested in that kind of gamble. If you are in a hand against this player, assess the situation carefully; know if your hand is strong enough that it's going to win without improvement. If it's not, get out of the hand.
Be the first to act. With this type of player, they aren't going to take too many risks. If you've won showdowns with good hands and you've been betting them as such, this person isn't going to forget.
When you're able to act before this person does, you can plant that seed of fear in their mind. It may even get to the point that they don't want to get into any hand with you.
Be aggressive heads up. Don't let this person play for the minimum. There's nothing wrong with raising two or three times the big blind (or even more) of your stack allows it.
When you get to the heads up portion of the tournament, the tighter the player, the more likely it is that they will have a smaller stack. As the blinds and ante catches up to them, they will have to play out of their element or their stack will disappear fast.
Tomorrow I'll wrap things up with some universal tips that should prepare you for greater success.

Learning Batik Jan 30, 2011
The Batik Workshop behind the Museum Main Building is my reason for re-visiting and re-visiting Museum Tekstil.
For first timer, if you interested in learning batik, go to the Museum ticketing, buy museum ticket for IDR 2.000 and handkerchief size batik experience for IDR 35.000 (but if you already visited the museum, and only want to learn batik, you just pay for the batik IDR 35.000, you will receive proof of payment).
I also love walk or sit in the Museum Garden, imagine mini Kebun Raya Bogor (Bogor Botanical
Garden): wind, big trees and birds chippering. The garden also have various kinds of natural dyes plantations (back then were used) for batik coloring.
The Batik Workshop building is located on your right hand (when you face the Museum), just walk until you meet traditional wooden Betawi House. Enter the house, enjoy your time watching people
learn Batik, or directly speak to the Batik tutor and show your proof of payment. The tutor will give you white cotton fabric size 35cm x 35cm and will guide you of what to do step by step. There are several tutors to be able to be asked.
From the given fabric, you will need to pencil sketch, there are various pattern you could choose, or you might already have your own.
After do the pencil sketch, you will place your fabric on the circular holder (the one use for
embroidery), put on apron, and the tutor will explain how to 'mencanting'.
You will sit on small chair with your right body (if you are right handed) next to the stove. In front of you will be: burning stove, small wok contain hot wax, 'canting' (canting: it shape like smoking pipe, is used as a pen on paper, canting on fabric).
You will gently take small amount of hot wax using canting, and start 'mencanting' (mencanting: draw use canting and hot wax as its ink). You will need change the hot wax inside canting often, or it will block your canting. If you feel it block, ask for help, the tutor will test the canting on used newspaper, if its true its block, they will clean the blockage using ijuk (ijuk: palm fiber). There are several size of canting, for draw thin to thick line, find one suit you and your draw.
After finishing mencanting on one side, you need repeat the other side.
Batik coloring do with dip it into color. The area aren't covered with wax will turn into color, the area with wax will stay white, that's way you need to put wax on the both side of facric (neat and bold), if not, when it come to coloring, the area suppose to be white will turn into color.
After you finish mencanting, they will offer you, if you still have many white area, to apply some hot parafin with brush (you may see on my batik, the outer area is parafin effect, but I put it not neat enough :p), it's your choice, parafin or not. If you decide to put some parafin, then do light squeeze on your fabric for breaking the parafin but not much.
Then the tutor will dip your batik on sequences: clean water, chemical that will hold color, the color you choose. Then it will be boiled on the water with small amount of starch. And voila! dry your Batik, and you have been passed learning Batik experince.
The handkerchief size batik mencanting took 1 hour to 2 hours usually, but possibly more if you choose complex pattern.
Then, if you find this new experience was so inspiring, and you want to do more but don't think you have time to re attend the workshop, the workshop sell the equipment for only IDR 100.000, you will get: stove, wok, wax, 3 cantings, half metres fabric. is it worth buying right? :)
The Museum open from 9AM to 3PM, but the batik workshop open from 10AM to 3PM, from tuesday to
sunday (close on monday and on public holiday).
have fun batik learning :)
I'm sure will be back to the Batik Workshop, and may we meet there?

Vast Collection of Indonesian Textiles Mar 18, 2010
This museum is located in the west of Jakarta. An old building that was built in the 19th century during the Dutch colony, after several changes of its function and ownership, it was then functioned as the Museum Tekstil (Bahasa for Textile Museum) by the government of Jakarta province.
They have a vast collection of textiles related to religious and social practices of the major islands of the Indonesian archipelago (Java, Sulawesi, Sumatera, etc), such as cotton and silk batik, woven ikat (tie and dye or pelangi) and a variety of traditional weaving utilities, from old time up to now.
The most interesting part you can do in this museum is that, they have a learning class of making/painting Batik. It costs IDR 75,000 (around USD 7.5) per tourist for about an hour class. You do not need to pay the entrance fee if you take this class. Entrance fee for this Museum is only IDR 2,000 (USD 0.20).
And one thing you should remember that Museums in Jakarta are mostly closed on Monday or public holiday. It is open from Tuesday to Sunday from 09.00 to 15.00 (closed earlier on Friday and Saturday).

The soybean harvest is progressing at the normal pace. About 22 percent of the crop was in as of Sunday. The five-year average for this point is 21 percent.
Observers said 2 percent of the soybean crop is excellent, 20 percent is good, 37 percent is fair, 24 percent is poor and 17 percent is very poor.
In the state's eastern region, which includes the Champaign-Urbana and Danville areas, 67 percent of the topsoil had adequate moisture, 29 percent was short and 4 percent was very short.
However, only 25 percent of the subsoil had adequate moisture. Forty-four percent was short and 31 percent was very short.
Federal program netted close to $634,000 for state
SPRINGFIELD — Illinois has received nearly $634,000 from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Specialty Crop Block Grant Program.
The state Department of Agriculture will split that money among 12 projects — including one at the University of Illinois — intended to expand the availability of locally grown produce.
Illinois is the nation's largest producer of pumpkins and horseradish and ranks among the top 10 states in the production of asparagus, cauliflower, green peas and lima beans.
The UI project aims to enhance food safety by assessing the microbial profiles on produce from farmers' markets and recommending handling practices that minimize the risk of microbial contamination.
Among the other projects:
— Working with the Illinois Horseradish Growers Association to identify new varieties that are whiter, larger and last longer than current varieties without sacrificing flavor.
— Working with the Illinois Stewardship Alliance to create a marketing campaign to promote local specialty crops to local restaurants.
— Working with the Illinois Grape Growers and Vintners Association to teach best management practices to Illinois grape growers.

text: Quality of life of children with atopic dermatitis and their familiesMcKenna, Stephen P; Doward, Lynda CCurrent Opinion in Allergy and Clinical Immunology: June 2008 - Volume 8 - Issue 3 - p 228–231 doi: 10.1097/ACI.0b013e3282ffd6cc Outcome measures: Edited by Henry Milgrom and Ralph Mösges Abstract Author Information Purpose of the review Over the last few years major advances have been made in the conceptualization of quality of life and new instruments have been developed for assessing the construct in paediatric atopic dermatitis. This review looks at these developments and reports on recently published articles on the impact of the condition on affected children and other members of their family. Recent findings During the period of the review only one article addressing the impact of treatment for paediatric atopic dermatitis on quality of life could be found. This showed the benefits to the quality of life of parents of treating their children with pimecrolimus cream. Summary Given the prevalence of paediatric atopic dermatitis and its impact on affected children and their families it is surprising that so little attention has been devoted to the impact of treatment on quality of life. Where standardized measures are included in studies they generally assess outcomes that are of interest to physicians rather than to patients and their carers. aSchool of Psychology, University of Central Lancashire, Preston, UK bGalen Research, Enterprise House, Manchester Science Park, Manchester, UK Correspondence to Professor Stephen P.

Strong winds are being blamed for the crash landing of a plane at Ballina.
The four seater plane had flown from Lismore and was coming in to land at the Ballina Airport just before 10 am Wednesday morning.
The male pilot was the only person on board.
He told police the plane was hit by a strong gust of wind as it touched down which caused the plane to flip and land on its roof.
He was able to escape and was treated by paramedics for minor injuries before being taken to Ballina Hospital.
Police officers helped to flip the plane back onto its wheels and the runway was reopened.
The incident will be referred to air safety investigators.

And that's why you should write for yourself. :) I love the end of this, "until you are/completely unraveled." I'm not sure if the experimentation with punctuation and such works at the beginning, but you probably had a good reason for it. Keep writing! :)

Obama Ayres Connection - Chicago Annenberg Challenge
Is Univ of Illionis involved in an Obama-Ayres coverup? What could be the biggest story of the election season, is being hidden or ignored by the leftist drive-by media. What is clear is that Obama blatantly lied to the public and the media when he said that Ayres was merely some guy who lived in his neighborhood. Ayres chose Obama to sit on the board of his Annenberg Challenge foundation for nearly 5 years, indicating a close relationship. The foundation received more than $42 million in grants from Annenberg for the purpose of improving Chicago schools. The project was deemed a flop. Instead, money was filtered $175,000 to advancing their political agenda instead of helping schools, including to Communist leader and Ayres friend and SDS radical, Mike Klonsky. Journalist Stanley Kurtz was originally granted access to the foundation's documents which reside at the U. of I. library in Chicago. Upon arrival, was denied access to these documents. Ask CNN why they and their leftist media cohorts refuse to explode this store on the front page. Why are they so afraid of Americans learning the truth about their mystery candidate, Obama and his real ties to terrorist William Ayres. His indepth article is here: *http://tinyurl.com/5v4twh
