I’ve checked online, and all Cheap Jerseys for sale the calculators are for calculating the number of days between two dates.
Excel has a WORKDAY function, but also seems to be designed to figure out how many business days are between a specified start and end date.
What I need to find out is what the dates for the 9th and 20th business day are for each month for the rest of 2012 and for all of 2013. I’d prefer not to have to look off a calendar and do it wholesale jerseys manually.

Why not just use the workday function for "last day of month previous, 9" and "last day of month previous, 20"?
So for January, you’d do =workday(31/12/2012,9), though it would be easiest just to have a column of "last day in month", one of workday 9, one of workday 20.

Women and men in sportsBoston Thirty three weeks pregnant with twins, yet determined to lead her talented University of Maryland women’s basketball team into the national championships, coach Brenda Frese known for energetically pacing the sideline found a novel way to relieve her aching lower back during a home game this month: She had an office chair rolled onto the gym floor.The result, amplified by a giant color photo in USA Today Peyton Manning Womens Jersey of a seated, beach ball bellied Ms. Frese thrusting her fist into the air, was a powerful visual metaphor for women in the world of sports.Frese’s example, like Paula Radcliffe training through pregnancy and winning the 2007 New York City Marathon, doesn’t camouflage but actually flaunts the fact that women are physically different than men.Recommended: The Masters: 12 women candidates for Augusta National membershipIt also challenges an assumption that still dogs women today: The female body is athletically inferior to a male body.The Masters: 12 women candidates for Augusta National membershipFor all the progress women have made in government, business, and the military the Wes Welker Youth Jersey shadow of female frailty still shapes the environment of sports.To study the structure of organized athletics today from youth leagues to the Olympics is to see a system that feeds the faulty belief that females can’t play as long, as well, or as hard as males.The strict gender segregation of almost all sports is considered normal, even progressive. But separate, it turns out, is not equal.No, this is not just about athletics. It’s about how we view and value one another. Credit Aristotle for locating female inferiority precisely in the body part men lack: the uterus.The Victorians perfected this argument, as a cadre of 19th century physicians and craniologists laid down the "science" explaining the female’s natural weakness. Of course, it was rooted in the reproductive role and occasioned all manner of "protections," restrictions, and rest. Wes Welker Authentic JerseyAds for Nike and Gatorade may feature well muscled, sweat drenched women athletes pushing personal boundaries, but institutional boundaries remain rigid.Men’s pro tennis players play five sets. Women play three (a holdover from 1902, when the US Lawn Tennis Association cut women’s play, fearing over exertion).A 12 year old girl who enters a local tournament sanctioned by US Kids Golf plays just nine holes; a boy her age in the same tournament plays 18 regardless of their relative skill or experience.Co ed adult sports leagues are rife with special "gender rules" to accommodate the supposedly weaker female sex. In some http://www.broncosnflofficialproshop.com/Nike-Von-Miller-Jersey.html basketball leagues, women get two points for every basket; the men get just one. In touch football, a female touchdown is worth seven points; a male TD earns six. A 24 year old who plays on a co ed softball team recently shared with us her annoyance at rules (no more than two men bat in a row, men hit larger balls, etc) which presume that any male player is better than every female player. Her beef? She played Division I college softball.Of course, there are physical differences between men as a group and women as a group. That would support different rules for super physical sports such as boxing and tackle football. But how does that account for the disparities in billiards and bridge?! Indeed, given that females are physiologically suited for ultra endurance events, why are women’s Olympic events slightly shorter than men’s?The answer Peyton Manning Kids Jersey to all these questions, in some form, is that sport is not merely about the game. It is, rather, about the identities of those who play and watch the game. It’s about what gets established and reinforced every time sex segregated formulas cast males as categorically superior to females.Sports matter and probably far more than they should. Many more people tune into the Super Bowl than the president’s State of the Union address.When we invest in sports as fans, parents, and recreational players, whether we know it or not, we become complicit in a deeply gendered institution in which male superiority and female inferiority are played out as clearly as HDTV.Ironically, though, we’ve come to accept this differential treatment of males and females as "normal." It appears to be all right to charge $4 to see the Rutgers women’s soccer team play and $7 to see the men’s team play, for example.Likewise, it seems that no one complained (or hardly noticed) when a Massachusetts youth soccer league put a warning in a bold framed box at the top of the online registration page broncosnflofficialproshop.com/Nike-Ryan-Clady-Jersey.html for Spring 2008. Local officials were no doubt trying to be helpful but also reflecting a norm played out in communities across the country. It read, "Note: If you are attempting to register a daughter, please be aware that Newton Youth Soccer is co ed, but primarily boys."Replace gender descriptors with words reflecting race or religion, and the problem becomes appalling. Be aware that Jews are welcome, but the league is mostly gentiles? Be aware that blacks are allowed, but the program is primarily white? No way.Sports are a path to social, economic, and political success. It is not enough to permit girls to play with boys; girls playing equally with boys should be the model. Individual ability not gender should be the first line drawn when organizing play, especially when sex based athletic differences are trivial.Title IX did open doors to girls and women to play sports on a broad scale. But it never demanded equality. Passed at a time when few could imagine the impressive, talented female athletes we have today, the law has codified a sex separate athletic system in which men’s sports are at the center and women’s at the periphery. It’s an insult in a non revenue setting to charge unequal ticket prices. And for marquee sports such as college men’s and women’s basketball, there should be equal promotion at those institutions receiving federal funds.Some argue that because the men "play above the rim" it’s a more exciting game. Ridiculous. "Exciting" is about talent in the face of talent: competition. The Women’s Final Four in recent years has been every bit as nail biting as the men’s NCAA playoff. Differences in style of play certainly don’t keep fans from tuning into college football just because of the NFL.

I say www.broncosnflofficialproshop.com/Nike-Peyton-Manning-Jersey.html 55 pts. Detroit will have to shore up a shaky defense before they’re considered any real threat to playoff caliber teams. Take New Orleans 10.5 pts. The Saints might even score 59 pts all by themselves. Take the over 59 pts.New York Giants 3 vs. AtlantaIn bad weather I like the Giants; under good weather conditions I like the Falcons. In Atlanta’s last four games they’re 2 2. The two teams they beat were Tampa Bay and Indianapolis with a combined record this year of 6 26. Atlanta’s running back M. Turner is less than 100%. E. Manning of the Giants is red hot with excellent receivers in Hicks and Cruz making the most of yards after catch. Take the New York Giants 3 pts.

Why do soccer players seem to have such low pain toleranceLike most Americans, I’ve never been a soccer fan and I don’t really follow the game at all. But I know the rest of the world does, so I watched the game this morning. I understand the strategy of trying to game the ref into calling a foul, but is the flopping around like a fish out of water really necessary? There is a lot of acting in basketball too, but typically players "flop" to the ground and get back up without shedding tears.Also, what’s with the stretchers? Players who twist a knee/ankle seem to be carried off on stretchers. This happened twice in the game I saw, and at least once the Demaryius Thomas Authentic Jersey guy came back in like 2 minutes later. Each time the injury obviously was not serious. Why is this necessary? Can’t the guy just hop or limp off the field under his own power or with the help of his teammates/trainers? Isn’t it a little embarassing to need a stretcher?I love watching and participating in sports of all kinds. Sports is a universal language that says a lot about people and their culture. So is there some kind of culture of coping with pain that is unique to Americans or just not present amongst soccer players? This isn’t the first Glenn Dorsey Youth Jersey soccer game I’ve ever watched but the amount of dramatic injuries I see is always astounding. Help me understand.posted by b_thinky to Sports, Hobbies, Recreation (91 answers total) 4 users marked this as a favoriteIt’s theatrical. Some do www.official49ersnflproshop.com/Nike-Glenn-Dorsey-Jersey.html it more than others. The stretchers are also a precautionary measure. Most of these players bodies are literally worth $millions. If there’s slightest chance they’re really injured, the investment must be protected.posted by normy at 11:42 AM on June 10, 2006The phrase you’re looking for is "Diving Nonces"posted by DrtyBlvd at 11:43 AM on June 10, 200610 best football dives.posted by essexjan at 11:50 AM on June 10, 2006The stretchering is partly a way of limiting the histrionics by the tackled player and his teammates.posted by beniamino at 12:01 PM on June 10, 2006The second and greatest, by far, obstacle to the popularity of the World Cup, and of professional soccer in general, is the element of flopping. Americans may generally be arrogant, but there is one stance I stand behind, and that is the intense loathing of penalty fakers. There are few examples of American sports where flopping is part of the game, much less accepted as such. Things are too complicated and dangerous in football to do much faking. Baseball? It’s not possible, really you can’t fake getting hit by a baseball, and it’s impossible to fake catching one. The only one of the big three sports that has a flop factor is basketball, where players can and do occasionally exaggerate a foul against them, but get this: The biggest flopper in the NBA is not an American at all. He’s Argentinian! (Manu Ginobili, a phony to end all phonies, but otherwise a very good player.)But flopping in soccer is a problem. Flopping is essentially a combination of acting, lying, begging, and cheating, and these four behaviors make for an unappealing mix. The sheer theatricality of flopping is distasteful, as is the slow motion way the chicanery unfolds. First there will be some incidental contact, and then there will be a long moment enough to allow you to go and wash the car and return after the contact and before the flopper decides to flop. When you’ve returned from washing the car and around the time you’re making yourself a mini bagel grilled cheese, the flopper will be leaping forward, his mouth Munch wide and oval, bracing himself for contact with the earth beneath him. But this is just the beginning. Go and do the grocery shopping and perhaps open a new money market account at the bank, and when you return, our flopper will still be on the ground, holding his shin, his head thrown back in mock agony. It’s disgusting, all of it, particularly because, just as all of this fakery takes a good deal of time and melodrama to put over, the next step is so fast that special cameras are needed to capture it. Once the referees have decided either to issue a penalty or not to our Fakey McChumpland, he will jump up, suddenly and spectacularly uninjured excelsior! and will kick the ball over to his teammate and move on.posted by CunningLinguist at 12:04 PM on June 10, 2006 [2 favorites]In soccer the clock doesn’t stop when play stops, so the stretcher was brought in to speed up play (if the fish is flopping around for a minute or two on the field, they could be stalling for time rather than looking for a penalty).posted by lowlife at 12:05 PM on June 10, 2006I know very very little of football (or ’soccer’). But I do know it’s nothing official49ersnflproshop.com/Nike-Phil-Dawson-Jersey.html more than a cheap trick to make the ref take out a red or yellow card for the opponent, or at the very least to try to stall the game a little in hectic moments.As for the stretchers. footballer legs are quite literally worth several million euros a piece. Besides, it’s probably regulation.posted by Harry at 12:06 PM on June 10, 2006There’s the theatrics, but there are also real injuries.Referees can be fooled, but not doctors and surgeons who have to fix torn ligaments and such.How does soccer stack up against other sports in terms of injury risk?Although endurance running is often considered to be a high injury sport (about 50 to 65% of all endurance runners are injured in an average year), the actual rate of injury in running is comparable with that of soccer. Various studies suggest that the running injury rate is about five injuries per 1000 hours of running, with little difference between training and competition (’Prevention of Running Injuries by Warm Up, Cool Down, and Stretching Exercises, The American Journal of Sports Medicine, Vol. 21(5), pp. 711 719, 1993). This is a little higher than the ’practice’ rate of injury for soccer but much lower than soccer’s competition related injury rate. Injury rates in other sports have been poorly studied, but it appears that soccer has one of the highest rates of athletic damage (Sportblessures breed Uitgemeten, Haarlem, DeVriesborch, 1990).posted by funambulist at 12:09 PM on June 10, 2006yeah, I know what it is, but isn’t it embarassing to the players sense of self pride or seen as wimpy to the fans? Do people really accept this without booing or hating the repeat offenders?Athletes in the NBA, NFL, NHL, etc are worth just as much, but if you see a stretcher, it’s because of something like this (Willis McGahee blowing his knee out) or worse.What about other sports like Rugby Demaryius Thomas Orange Jersey or Aussie Rules football? Do those players participate in the same kind of behavior? I know soccer players are immensely talented athletes and all, but is the concept of toughness foreign to them or just not valued, or what?

Which needs will the New England Patriots address in Ray McDonald Authentic Jersey Round Phil Dawson Womens Jersey 1 Last time around, Nick Underhill projected Louis Nix III to fall to New England to No. 29. In this go around though, Nix was off the board.You can check out our breakdowns on the prospects that could be options for the Patriots at No. 29 and beyond. Although, for this draft, most of the names will be out of reach.(Note: The picks were made one at a time by each participant before the selections could proceed. No trades were allowed.)No. 1, Houston Texans Jadeveon Clowney, DE, South Carolina (pick by Nick O time I try to watch tape of a game where the South Carolina defense is on the field, I keep finding myself ignoring the guy I meant to watch and focusing on Clowney. Even when he doesn make the tackle, he usually doing ungodly things to whatever poor soul is trying to block him. I convinced he the best player in this draft. If the Texans are smart (and I think they are) they find a way to send him after the quarterback, regardless of scheme.No. 2, St. Louis Rams Greg Robinson, OT, Auburn (pick by Nick Underhill)I was tempted to go with Sammy Watkins here, but a big time receiving target isn going to matter much if Sam Bradford gets hurt again. Robinson has the tools to develop into one of the better offensive tackles in the NFL. His potential is too much to pass up.No. 3, Jacksonville Jaguars Johnny Manziel, QB, Texas A (pick by Christopher Jason)The Jaguars need a franchise quarterback and they need someone to spark the fan base. Manziel can be just that in Jacksonville. I was leaning towards the Ray McDonald Womens Jersey idea of Buffalo Khalil Mack coming off of the edge for Gus Bradley defense, but Manziel will be the man to turn things around in Jacksonville and excite a sleeping fan base.No. 4, Cleveland Browns Sammy Watkins, WR, Clemson (O Browns have the unfortunate problem at not being particularly good at one thing, especially on the offensive side of the ball. Their defense is serviceable, but they still left with an offense that has WR Josh Gordon, two top tier linemen in Joe Thomas and Alex Mack and little else. Blake Bortles or Teddy Bridgewater won’t be able to change too much here. But with Watkins in the mix, the Browns could have one of the best budding receiving duos in the league, which is something to go on.No. 5, Oakland Raiders Khalil Mack, LB, Buffalo (Underhill)Oakland went on a spending spree during free agency to fill many of their voids, which frees them up to take the best available player at this point in the draft. If that player happens to be Mack, Oakland should be pleased with this outcome. The Raiders can trade back into the first round or wait until the second to draft a quarterback.No. 6, Atlanta Falcons Jake Matthews, OT, Texas A (Jason)The Falcons are not far away from contending in the NFC South and with the sixth pick, they can bolster their offensive line to keep Matt Ryan upright. They do need help on the defensive side of the ball but they can address those needs later in the draft. There have also been rumblings of the Falcons trading up in the draft and they could target Clowney if Houston shops the first pick.No. 7, Tampa Bay Buccaneers Mike broncosnflofficialproshop.com/Nike-Demaryius-Thomas-Jersey.html Evans, WR, Texas A (O trading the talented but troubled Mike Williams to the Buffalo Bills, the Buccaneers have a pretty glaring hole at wide receiver outside of Vincent Jackson. With Evans in tow, Tampa Bay has the potential the replicate the towers wideout approach that newly signed QB Josh McCown had so much success with in Chicago.No. 8, Minnesota Vikings Blake Bortles, QB, UCF (Underhill)I not convinced that Bortles can come in and help a team immediately. He showed improvement in his footwork at his pro day, but he had enough issues last season with his mechanics to make it seem as though he needs to work out some issues behind the scenes. That should be fine for the Vikings. They will be fine moving forward with Christian Ponder and Matt Cassel in the interim.No. 9, Buffalo Bills Eric Ebron, TE, North Carolina (Jason)Second year quarterback EJ Manuel needs another legitimate target and Ebron would bring instant offense to Buffalo. Ebron is hands down the best tight end in this class and he brings a lethal combination of size and speed that no one else on the Bills can replicate. Ebron is a stud and he could eventually be the second best tight end in the AFC East behind Rob Gronkowski.No. 10, Detroit Lions Justin Gilbert, CB, Oklahoma State (O Lions have had an absolutely brutal secondary for far too long. The team has an offense that can put up points and some playmakers in the pass rush. At some point, they have to cover someone. Step one in that process: Take the best cornerback available.No. 11, Tennessee Titans Anthony Barr, LB, UCLA (Underhill)I almost gave the Titans Taylor Lewan here because he is one of the best remaining players on the board, and Gilbert likely would have been the pick if the Lions didn take him at No. 10. But the Titans have bigger needs than an offensive tackle, so Barr is the pick. They need some talent here, and the addition of Shaun Phillips will help, but Barr makes too much sense.

What to http://www.official49ersnflproshop.com/Nike-Antoine-Bethea-Jersey.html Eat Before Andy Lee Authentic Jersey Cardio Celebrity trainer Gunnar Peterson offers some ideas for a pre cardio snack in his book "G Force: The Ultimate Guide to Your Best Body Ever." He suggests you eat a slice of whole wheat bread and a piece of fruit such as an apple. You can also have a small bowl www.official49ersnflproshop.com/Nike-Ahmad-Brooks-Jersey.html of oatmeal topped with raisins. If you need protein to sustain through a long workout, try a glass of milk Andy Lee Womens Jersey with your snack or eat a small tuna sandwich. Avoid any food with fat, as it takes much longer than carbs to be absorbed into your bloodstream. Kleiner notes that active athletes should eat as many as six or seven meals per day. Even if you’re not an NFL linebacker or training for a marathon you should eat four or five small meals throughout the day instead of eating three larger Kendall Hunter Jersey meals. Eating less often means you’re more likely to run out of energy before a workout. Continually replenishing your body with small meals means you’ll always have enough energy to hop on the treadmill. Kleiner also says that when your body runs out of fuel between meals, your Kendall Hunter Youth Jersey metabolism slows down which means you’re more likely to store fat.
