Master of Science
This degree program leads to professional licensing, professional certification, and if elected, to teacher of speech and hearing handicapped certification. Students are required to complete academic and practice requirements for the New York State License in Speech-Language Pathology and the Certificate of Clinical Competence offered by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association to be eligible for graduation with the Master of Science Degree.
This requirement means that it is the responsibility of the student to satisfy the required 74 points of coursework in appropriate specified areas for the ASHA CCC-SLP before completion of the M.S., either through coursework taken at Teachers College or through an approved distribution of courses completed at Teachers College and at another regionally accredited institutions (including undergraduate coursework).
This requirement is in addition to the specific courses and minimum points required by Teachers College faculty to satisfy the Master of Science degree requirements. Although course points from other institutions are not transferred to the student's program, courses taken elsewhere and approved by the student's academic advisor as equivalent to coursework required to satisfy the ASHA certification requirements or selected departmental requirements do not need to be repeated at Teachers College.
The minimum number of points for completion of the Program in Communication Sciences and Disorders is approximately 50, including practicum courses. Students who have no previous applicable coursework in the field typically require 74 points to complete the requirements for graduation.
Students admitted to the program with undergraduate majors in speech and language pathology or with substantial prior coursework can expect to complete the program within two calendar years (four semesters and two summer sessions) of full-time study.
Students admitted with little or no prior coursework can expect to complete the program in two and one-half calendar years of full-time study. Some accommodations can be made for part-time study during a portion of the program, but students must be enrolled in practicum experiences (BBSQ 5331/2) from their first semester and in all subsequent semesters of their enrollment.
Academic and Practicum Requirements
Basic Human Communication Processes:
In the area of normal human communication processes, students are required to take two courses in each of three areas of speech, language, and hearing, including:
- anatomic and physiologic bases
- physical and psychophysical bases
- linguistic and psycholinguistic aspects
These courses will total at least 15 points. This coursework may be taken at either the undergraduate or graduate level. Students with an undergraduate degree in communi-cation disorders will have taken some or all of this coursework as part of their under-graduate preparation.
Material covered in the following courses must have been included as part of the student's prior coursework or must be taken at Teachers College:
- BBSQ 4030 Speech science (3)
- BBSQ 4031 Anatomy and physiology for speech, language and hearing (3)
- BBS 4032 Neuroscience of human speech and language (2)
- BBS 5068 Brain and behavior I: Communication in the nervous system (1-2)
The remainder of the normal human communication processes requirement can be fulfilled through a variety of course options such as: BBSQ 5044, Speech and language perception and processing; A&HL 4101, Phonetics and phonology; HBSE 4079, Language development and habilitation; HUDK 5024, Language development; HUDK 5090, The psychology of language and reading; A&HL 4000, Introduction to linguistics; A&HL 4003, Linguistic analysis; ITSF 4024, Linguistic foundations of bilingual/ bicultural education; and other courses listed in the program materials.
Professional Coursework
In professional area coursework, students are required to take 7 points in hearing disorders and a minimum of 30 points in speech-language disorders. The professional area course-work in speech-language pathology must be at the graduate level and must include a minimum of 6 points in courses within the program that are not part of the core requirements. In addition, only 3 points of practicum coursework can be used to fulfill the 30-point professional area requirement. Only courses for which a grade of at least a C has been earned can be used to fulfill these requirements.
Core Coursework
The following core courses must be taken at Teachers College or the equivalent course material must have been taken as part of a student's prior coursework and approved by the student's academic advisor:
Speech-Language Pathology
- BBSQ 4040 Speech and language disorders (2)
- BBSQ 5111 Assessment and evaluation (3)
- BBSQ 5112 Articulation disorders (3)

- BBSQ 5125 Clinical approaches to aural habilitation of children (3)
- BBSQ 5129 Audiological concepts and principles (1)
- BBSQ 5343 Hearing measurements (1)
Additional Coursework
Students are required to take a minimum of 6 points of professional area coursework within the program in Communication Sciences and Disorders in addition to the required core courses. Some additional courses are offered yearly, while others are offered on a less regular or a one-time basis. There are also seminars that are open to advanced master's students. The following is a list of additional courses:
- BBSQ 4046 Introduction to augmentative and alternative communication (1)
- BBSQ 4047 Early motor behaviors in children: Normal and abnormal (3)
- BBSQ 5118 Cleft palate and speech habilitation (2-3)
- BBSQ 5119 Alaryngeal speech (1)
- BBSQ 5130 Assessment and intervention in dysphagia (2)

Research Methods
Students are required to take BBSQ 5940, Evaluating research in speech-language pathology, and audiology or to have previously taken equivalent coursework. This course is offered during the fall term.
Breadth Courses
Students in this program are required to take two Teachers College courses (for at least 2 points each) in departments other than their major program area. These courses may be used to fulfill the requirements for coursework in normal human communication processes or may be in related professional areas. Breadth courses may be taken pass/fail. Currently, any advisor approved non-BBSQ course meets the breadth requirement.
Bilingual-Multicultural Program Focus
The Bilingual-Bicultural Program Focus is for students who wish to develop expertise in working with culturally and linguistically diverse children and adolescents with communication disorders. Following the Bilingual -Multiicultural Program Focus will satisfy the coursework and field placement requirements for the bilingual extension to the New York State teachers of students with speech and language disabilities certificate. Under New York State Education Department regulations, the bilingual extension certificate is required to provide speech and language intervention for bilingual children and adolescents ages 3 through 21. This includes working in a school system in New York State as well as providing bilingual therapy in a private practice where funding comes from the New York City Department of Education or the New York State Education Department.
The requirements for the New York State bilingual extension certificate, as integrated into the Master's of Science program in speech-language pathology, are:
- BBSQ 5041 School speech-language-hearing programs (2-3)
- BBSQ 5111 Assessment and evaluation (3)
- BBSQ 5115 Language disorders in children (3)
- BBSQ 5120 Communication disorders in bilingual/bicultural children (3)
- Fifty hours of bilingual therapy/evaluations with children and/or adolescents supervised by a certified bilingual speech-language pathologist as part of the total hours required by ASHA.
- A passing score on the New York State Education Department's Bilingual Education Assessment in the student's non-English language and in English. Students must pass the test before their last semester at Teachers College.
Practicum Requirements
Therapy practicum. Students enroll in Practicum (BBSQ 5331 and BBSQ 5332) starting with their first semester at Teachers College and continue in Practicum during each subsquent semester, including at least one summer (BBSQ 5315 and BBSQ 5316). Assignment and participation in each of these Practicum experiences is determined by and at the discretion of the Clinic Program Coordinator.
Students continue in Practicum until a satisfactory level of clinical competence appropriate for entry into the Clinical Fellowship Year has been demonstrated. Students without background in the field typically enroll for six or seven semesters of Practicum, while students with background tend to enroll for five or six semesters of Practicum. Students accrue a minimum of 400 supervised clinical hours within a minimum of three service sites in addition to the on-campus Edward D. Mysak Clinic for Communication Disorders. These field placements typically include a school site, a hospital, and a rehabilitation site.
Diagnostics. Students are required to enroll in one semester of diagnostic Practicum (BBSQ 5312). This Practicum experience follows BBSQ 5111, Assessment and evaluation, and is contingent upon satisfactory completion of academic coursework and therapy Practicum experiences in a variety of disorder areas. Assignment to this Practicum is also determined by and at the discretion of the Clinic Program Coordinator.
Clinic Lab. Students must enroll in BBSQ 5333 or BBSQ 5334, depending on previous academic background. This is a one-semester course in Laboratory Methods and Instrumentation in Clinical Practice that is taken for 1 point. All students meet once a week for a lecture/presentation. Students are also assigned to small group workshop sessions during the day.
Hearing Practicum. Students are required to enroll in BBSQ 5343, Hearing measurement. This is a one-semester, 1-point practicum that fulfills the New York State requirement for clinical hours in Audiology.

Adam Nicolson
Adult Nonfiction DA306.H47 N53 2008
Summary: Quarrel with the King tells the story of the first four earls of Pembroke, their wives, children, estates, tenants, and allies, following their high and glamorous trajectory from the 1520s through 1650-the most turbulent and dramatic years of English history-across three generations of change, ambition, resistance, and war. The Pembrokes were at the heart of it all: the richest family in England, with old blood and new drive, led as much by a succession of extraordinary women as by their husbands and sons.It is also the story of a power struggle, over a long century, between the family and the growing strength of the English Crown. For decades, questions of loyalty simmered: Was government about agreement and respect, or authority and compulsion? What status did traditional rights have in a changing world? Did a national emergency mean those rights could be ignored or overturned? These were the issues that in 1642 would lead to a brutal civil war, the bloodiest conflict England has ever experienced, in which the earl of Pembroke-who had been loyal till then-had no choice but to rebel against a king who he felt had betrayed both him and his country.At other times, the Pembrokes both threatened the Crown and acted as its bruisingly efficient and violent agents. They were ambivalent figures: flag bearers for an ancient England and time servers in some of the most corrupt courts England has ever known; fawning courtiers and indulgent landlords; puritanical aristocrats and rebel grandees. Nicolson's book amounts to a study in all the ambiguities involved in the exercise and maintenance of power and status.

In 2005, almost all (95%) non-institutionalized persons 65+ were covered by Medicare. Medicare covers mostly acute care services and requires beneficiaries to pay part of the cost, leaving about half of health spending to be covered by other sources. About 59% had some type of private health insurance. Over 7% had military-based health insurance and 9% of the non-institutionalized elderly were covered by Medicaid. Only 1% did not have coverage of some kind. About 87% of non-institutionalized Medicare beneficiaries in 2004 had some type of supplementary coverage. However, among Medicare beneficiaries residing in nursing homes, almost 58% were covered by Medicaid in 2001.

Tangy Potato Salad with Scallions
Get MoreSubscribe to Martha Stewart Living
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 4 pounds Yukon gold or other waxy potatoes, scrubbed, halved, and sliced 1/2 inch thick
- 1/2 cup white-wine vinegar
- 4 scallions, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup olive oil
Cook's Note
Step 1
Set a steamer basket in a large pot. Fill with enough salted water to come just below basket. Bring to a boil; place potatoes in basket, and reduce heat to medium. Cover, and steam, gently tossing occasionally, until crisp-tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 2
Meanwhile, combine vinegar and scallions in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. When potatoes are cooked, transfer to bowl with vinegar mixture. Toss to combine; let cool, tossing occasionally.
Step 3
When potato mixture is cool, mix in oil; season potato salad with salt and pepper.

This sour taste salad is a way to enjoy soft but crispy as well. I used Eco friendly ones with skin on. Whole food is good with fiber! If you want to have some sweet taste, add on fresh paprika (I used orange color) when you toss with olive oil. Cold is better in my opinion!Reply
ExpandingChef 5 Jul, 2011
This recipe was absolutly delicious!!! I used chives instead of scallions and let it cool in the fridge for one day and after that, the flavor was extremely enchanced!!!! IT tasted just like traditional german potato salad!!Reply
designrox1103 4 Jun, 2011
This is very like a Middle-Eastern recipe. The addition of sliced hard-boiled eggs atop the salad. It is served warm. YUM!Reply

A nail polish collection inspired by Burlesque, we understand. The glitz, the glam, our fleeting interest in the Christina Aguilera vehicle - all perfect for a Limited Edition run of shades. Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, on the other hand? That's a stretch. Cosmetics companies and studios are teaming up more and more often to market tie-in collections. Some make sense, but even more are weirdly incompatible.

Last week, I helped curate the 'Post No Bill's' Graphic Design exhibition at UWE. It was a show of our second and first year work, and ran for a week.
It was a lot of hard work, and there were a few moments of panic, but we got there in the end, and it went successfully! I had a really good time on the opening night, and actually really enjoyed curating. Here's a few photos of us setting up,the opening night and some of our work (including some of mine!).

Iman Abdulmajid was born on July 25, 1955 in Mogadishu, Somalia. She was raised by progressive parents; her mother, a doctor, and her father, a Somali diplomat, sent Iman to a private Catholic school that they believed offered their daughter a better type of education than a standard Islamic school. Iman's modeling career began after celebrity photographer Peter Beard spotted her walking on a street in Kenya and asked her permission to be photographed. The then-20-year-old student hesitated initially, but she agreed after he reportedly offered to pay her the amount of her college tuition. Shortly after photos of Iman surfaced in the media in 1975, she moved to New York City and took the fash... Continue Bio >>

Lipstick: NARS Afghan Red
Where: Studio
Why: I put on a lot of potential outfits this morning and ended up changing 5 or 6 times before I put this dress on right before running out the door. All of those other outfits were fine but none of them felt special. I suppose that's the curse of sharing your daily outfit for five and a half years- even good outfits don't always feel blog worthy. I still enjoy getting dressed everyday for myself, but I want to make sure that you're still getting something out of reading What I Wore.
What I think I need is a good old fashion closet clean up and remix challenge - and that's where I could use your help. Would you be up to picking out one piece you've seen on What I Wore and challenging me to remix it? I think the easiest way to do this is to pin whatever piece you've seen here and write CHALLENGE: ITEM NAME in the description. I'll pick out five of those challenges and do them next week on the blog and link back to your site too. As long as I still have the item, everything goes!

BLACKSBURG, VA (RNN) - Police have identified the officer killed by a gunman on the campus of Virginia Tech on Thursday.
Deriek W. Crouse, 39, joined the Virginia Tech Police Department in 2007. He leaves behind a wife and 5 children and step-children. Crouse was also a veteran, having served in the U.S. Army.
Police believe the gunman may have walked up on a traffic stop, killed Crouse in his cruiser and then killed himself after fleeing the scene on foot.
In an open letter to the campus, university President Charles Steger wrote, "My heart goes out to his family who will surely feel most keenly, in the days and months and years ahead, the profound loss that today's events have brought to pass."
In a news briefing, Virginia Tech Police Department Deputy Chief Gene Deisinger said a suspicious person was spotted after the shooting by a second campus police officer. The officer said the man was "shot and killed" before he could question him.
A weapon was recovered at the scene near that shooting victim's body. That person is believed to be the gunman.
"Shortly after 12 p.m. today, a Virginia Tech officer stopped a vehicle on campus during a routine traffic stop in the Coliseum parking lot near McComas hall. During the traffic stop, the officer was shot and killed," according to a statement by Mark Owczarski, director of news and information at Virginia Tech.
The state police, FBI and a SWAT team swarmed the campus for nearly four hours searching for the person who shot Crouse. The campus was placed on lockdown shortly after eye witnesses reported the shooting.
The lockdown was lifted after police declared there was no longer an imminent threat to the campus.
During the lockdown - as police, a tactical response team and search dogs searched for the unidentified shooter - students were sequestered in the basement of the student center. Police also searched nearby cars and neighborhoods for the suspect.
Montgomery County Schools were also placed on lockdown, with buses released 60 to 90 minutes late.
More shots reported in at least two more locations on campus, but police determined those were actually the noise of trash dumpsters banging together during pick-up.
One person near the performing arts center apparently surrendered to authorities, but he was not arrested.
Law enforcement blocked the back gates to the campus, and police requested any unassigned units to report to the south gate. At least 15 squad cars were reported on campus.
Finals for the students, which were supposed to start Friday, have been rescheduled for Saturday. Next week's exams will resume as scheduled on Monday.
This is not the first shooting on the Virginia Tech campus. On April 26, 2007, Seung-Hui Cho killed 32 people - five faculty members and 27 students - and wounded 25 others before committing suicide.
Cho, who was a senior, shot two people at West Ambler Johnston Hall, a dormitory before crossing campus to Norris Hall, a classroom building.
He chained the main entrance doors shut to prevent anyone from exiting the building and hindering police from entering the building. Students jumped from windows to escape the shooter.
Cho killed himself as police stormed the building.
In August, the campus was placed on lockdown after reports of a gunman were made to campus police. No gunman was ever found.
Ironically, testimony had been scheduled today in an appeal hearing requested by the university for fines levied against it for its handling of the 2007 shooting.

On the field next to Northeast Middle School, young refugees Abhishek Yonghang and Ahmed Osman kicked a soccer ball around, each grateful for the common connection as they adjust to a new life far from their former homes in Nepal and Somalia.
Three miles away in a classroom at Mergenthaler Vocational-Technical High School, junior Wayne Young slipped a suit jacket over his school uniform for debate practice with the Urban Debate League, trying to "look the part" of the Harvard law grad he envisions himself to one day be.
The lives of these Baltimore teens are among the thousands influenced by George Soros, a billionaire philanthropist who decided 15 years ago that the city, with severe crime and poverty and just enough potential, was ripe for an experiment.
The Baltimore office of his Open Society Institute was designed as a social justice laboratory to keep students engaged in school, confront drug addiction, reduce incarceration and grow an army of advocates. Now, the 83-year-old hedge fund investor — who has given $90 million to the effort here — wants to recreate it in as many as five more U.S. cities.
"A lot remains to be done, but we now consider the Baltimore experiment so successful that we wanted to replicate it nationwide," Soros said in a phone interview from his native Budapest, Hungary.
Soros, who lives outside New York City, said his organization, Open Society Foundations, has given planning grants to eight communities to compete for future offices. Meanwhile, he pledged his continued support in Baltimore, saying the advancements the institute has helped promote in student attendance, discipline and performance are the return on investment he wanted.
"Baltimore is our poster child, the city that has done the most," he said. "From my perspective, that is the one I cherish the most."
The local office will mark its anniversary Tuesday with a sold-out event, "Big Change Baltimore," that is expected to bring 500 people to Center Stage. Speakers will include civil rights activist Sherrilyn Ifill and Ravens president Dick Cass, and the organization will give awards to community members, including Baltimore Sun columnist Dan Rodricks. Soros is not expected to attend.
Celeste Amato, president of the Association of Baltimore Area Grantmakers, said OSI has honed in on the issues most critical to the city. Her group works with OSI and more than 145 other philanthropic groups.
"What philanthropy brings is the ability to test ideas and innovative solutions to what may seem to be intractable issues," she said, and at OSI, that's "part of their mission."
Jeff Singer, an advocate for the homeless in Baltimore for more than 40 years and an adjunct instructor at the University of Maryland School of Social Work, said quantifying OSI's impact and separating its successes from other nonprofits is impossible. But what he knows for sure is that because of OSI's work, people have greater access to addiction services, and marginalized individuals such as ex-offenders are being heard.
"Their impact in the philanthropy and nonprofit world has been as a leader in showing a relationship between service and advocacy," Singer said. "There aren't very many philanthropies that are willing to fund both. OSI has seen the connection.
"OSI does some of that work itself, but they are also providing the lifeblood for us to do it."
For example, the Urban Debate League, launched by the institute in 1999, boasts a graduation rate of 90 percent and college acceptance rate of 80 percent among its participating students. This year, 31 city schools are participating in the league and 600 students have signed up so far.
During a recent practice drill at Mergenthaler, Fernando Kirkman told Young, the 16-year-old from Pigtown, and his teammates to speak louder and project their voices.
"Debate is a competitive activity," said Kirkman, 28, a program coordinator for the league and a graduate of Baltimore City College and Towson University. He is also a former debate league student. "Just like the football team, just like the basketball team, you have to commit to doing this at the highest level you can obtain."
Shamaiah Evans, a sophomore from East Baltimore whose sights are set on Carnegie Mellon University, joined the debate league last year. With Kirkman's help, the 15-year-old focused her arguments around this year's debate topic, Latin American economic policy, discussing the instability of Venezuela, the danger of a civil war and its reliance on oil reserves.
She had never heard of Soros before, but last week she considered the billionaire and his investment for a moment, and said, "I think he saw a lot of potential in Baltimore."
Like the debate league, OSI's investment has been the springboard for nearly 150 projects through its Community Fellowships program, which has helped to create a citywide network of social entrepreneurs. Each fellow receives $60,000 over 18 months as well as money for health insurance, travel and education debt relief.
With that seed money, Jill Pardini, 29, a former Fulbright Scholar and Peace Corps volunteer, founded Soccer Without Borders in Baltimore. The program uses soccer to connect immigrant and refugee children, primarily in the city's Northeast, and help tutor and mentor them, improve their English skills and keep them physically and emotionally strong.

Abrantes is a municipality in Portugal, with a population of 41,560 inhabitants, located on the southern margin of the Tagus River. It is believed that the first settlement in Abrantes was established by the Celts, around 300 BC. Its name developed from the Latin Aurantes, perhaps because of the deposits of alluvial gold (Latin: aurum), that settled along the Tagus. Similarly, Roman mosaics, coins, the remains of ancient aqueducts, as well as other antiquities, have been discovered in the vicinity of Abrantes.
The village of Abrantes and its castle were conquered from the Moors by Afonso Henriques in 1148. After 1172, Abrantes was a Spanish military outpost, under the dominion of the Order of Saint James of Compostela. Later, it became a distinct order, when Pope Nicholas IV (around 1290) released the Order from the jurisdiction of the Spanish grand master in Uclés. It received its municipal foral in 1179, in compensation for its resistance against the Morrocan Abem Jacob.

In dreams I walk the rustic sands
and travel to exotic lands
to find the pill of life so pure;
a myriad of balms that cure.
It opens up my soul to light
and gives me color,song and sight.
Those words that bind me to the world
in grace and beauty are thus hurled.
Moments of clarity bring joy
as all my senses I employ.
I'm rid of all the pain and hurt;
my whimsy is on high alert.
I hasten to where stars align
to partake of this pill divine.

More vets turn to prosthetics to help legless pets
LOS ANGELES: A 9-month-old boxer pup named Duncan barreled down a beach in Oregon, running full tilt on soft sand into YouTube history and showing more than 4 million viewers that he can revel in a good romp despite lacking back legs.
"It's a heartwarming, wonderful thing to see," said Dr. Bonnie Beaver, a professor at Texas A&M University's College of Veterinary Medicine and executive director of the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists. "These animals generally look to us as if they are very happy. We don't know that they are, but they are excited and jumping around and doing things that are wonderful to watch."To read more or comment...

More domestic violence shelters are taking in pets
NEW YORK: When her abusive husband left for work last fall, she grabbed her kids, her dog and her bags, only to run up against a heart-wrenching obstacle: None of the city's more than 50 domestic violence shelters would accept the pet.
"Should I still leave?" the 34-year-old woman asked herself before fleeing and ultimately finding a foster home for her Chihuahua.To read more or comment...
Cat whisperer heading to Oregon after attack
LOS ANGELES: The large cat that attacked a baby and trapped an Oregon family in a bedroom touched off an Internet uproar that worries Jackson Galaxy, star of Animal Planet's "My Cat from Hell."

Dogs 'muttbomb' celebrities to boost adoptions
LOS ANGELES: Sandy the dog "muttbombed" celebrities like Bradley Cooper, Ellen DeGeneres and Brad Pitt as they posed at the Oscars for the now-famous star-studded selfie. That digitally tweaked version of the most retweeted photo ever is a Texas animal rescue's bet that combining cuddly canines and Hollywood stars will entice more social media users to adopt needy pets.
So-called muttbombing, the Photoshopped doggie version of photobombing, where someone slips into a picture without the subject knowing, has proved so popular online it has touched off requests from shelters across the country and overseas on how to launch their own campaigns. With social media increasingly becoming the go-to advertising tool, shelters are rushing to take up the successful strategy and DreamWorks Animation has used it to promote both homeless pets and its new movie starring a cartoon canine.
The adoption campaign by Dallas Pets Alive, a small, all-volunteer rescue, and Dieste Inc., a marketing firm working pro bono, launched Feb. 10. They take the publicly posted Instagram photos of both the glitterati and the girl next door, edit in the friendly face of a dog in need and attach often humorous captions urging adoptions. The Oscars selfie has a caption reading, "I'm Sandy and I'm #muttbombing you in hopes of finding a home."
In another celebrity muttbomb, a pooch named Max sneaked in next to actor Ryan Gosling and asked, "Hey Ryan Gosling, can I follow you home? My parents always told me to follow my dreams." Other photos have featured Kim Kardashian, Miley Cyrus and Jimmy Fallon.To read more or comment...

See coment above. Additional comment..easy to use and not overly heavy.
I have hardwood imitation flooring, and it was such a pain to sweep and mop, now with this steamer, doing the floors is fun. Cleaning the bathroom is fun and easy. No more cleaners to buy. It does so much better than a regular mop. A must have for sure.
steam no chemicals,pet friendly,people friendly,the best cleaning i have ever experienced.it comes with the attachments for virtually any cleaning job.it will clean away grime grease stains from fabrics,walls ,floors
I was so excited to get this mob.. it left streaks tho, no matter what we did. I was sad to return it.
Better than all the others, worth paying a little extra
This mop exceeded my expectations beyond belief and i am very happy with the purchase. It is easy to use. I feel like it does a wonderful job sanitizing and cleaning my floors.This is a must have product. My first floors were engineered and now they are oak. The steam mop works wonders on both.
The problem may be that it's a refurbish Shark, either way, I think it should have lasted longer. Only five months of use is not worth the money I paid for it. Too bad it only carried a 30 day warranty. I'm disappointed.
The steam mop works pretty good on my wood floors. In my vacation rental, the last guest had played beer pong in the house. uSE YOUR IMAGINATION! well, it got it all up. Mind you that it is not a miracle worker for floors that have been left for years. The cord is nice and long. The mop is ready to work in about 30 seconds or less. I really like the 3 different settings. I DO wish that it came with a mesh bag? to store the attachments. The rug glide arrived broken. The replacement is supposed to be coming.

A former middle school volleyball coach has pleaded not guilty to new charges.
Cassie Elfers, 21, is now facing two additional charges of sexual abuse and a charge of distribution of obscene matter for allegedly having an inappropriate relationship with a student.
Elfers was the part-time volleyball coach at Sharp Middle School. She was charged in January with one count of sexual abuse.
Elfers was arraigned on the new charges on Wednesday and pleaded not guilty. She was also ordered to not have unsupervised contact with any minors. The new charges involve the same student.
Elfers' attorney, Eric Deters, has said that there wasn't any sexual intercourse, and that Elfers was not the volleyball coach at the time of the
alleged sexual contact. She was an assistant basketball coach for
the boy's team, which was coached by her ex-boyfriend.

The average NFL team is now worth $1.1 billion, according to valuations calculated by Forbes magazine. That's a 7 percent increase from last year.
The Minnesota Vikings led the league with a 22 percent increase in value, now worth an estimated $975 million. The 49ers, with a 19 percent increase, were right behind. The jump in value of the Vikings and Niners is largely due to both teams securing financing for new stadiums this year.
Here's what Forbes said about the Vikings' value:
"The Vikings are getting a new $975 million stadium that will be financed with $477 million from the team and the NFL, $348 million from the state and $150 million from the city of Minneapolis. The team, currently near the bottom of the NFL in stadium revenue, could generate an additional $40 million a year from the new venue. The value of the team rose a league-high 22% thanks to the new stadium deal."
NFL's Most Valuable Teams
1. Dallas Cowboys ($2.1 billion)
2. New England Patriots ($1.64 billion)
3. Washington Redskins ($1.6 billion)
4. New York Giants ($1.47 billion)
5. Houston Texans ($1.31 billion)
Among NFC North teams, the Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions ranked No. 8, No. 10 and No. 27, respectively.

A Minot man says he is "not guilty" of murder in the death of his girlfriend.
47-year-old Darin Parker entered the plea today in Northwest District Court.
In today's preliminary hearing, Minot Police Detective Jay Laudenschlager said Parker had initially told him that injuries to 44-year-old Karrie Williams were from a fall.
But the detective said when he saw the woman, he knew that couldn't be true.
(Jay Laudenschlager, Minot Police Detective) "I couldn't believe the extent of her injuries, I could definitely tell this was not from a fall. Both her eyes were black and blue and swollen shut, her left ear - it was so swollen you couldn't tell it was even an ear, she had bruising basically from head to toe - her whole body, extremities, there was bruises everywhere."
Laudenschlager testified that after Parker learned Williams had died at the hospital, he admitted to hitting and kicking the woman.
(Jay Laudenschlager, Minot Police Detective) "When she was down once he said that he kicked her in the head and he demonstrated that. And then he also demonstrated how he kicked her off the bed."
Laudenschlager said the autopsy ruled Williams had died from multiple blunt force trauma.
The testimony was part of today's preliminary hearing for Parker, who then entered his "not guilty" plea to the Class Double-A Felony Murder charge.?

Minneapolis MN Commercial Property for Lease Minnesota
Thu, Aug 22 2013 03:53
For a booming business, proximity to the business or commercial section of any city is important. However, buying or renting commercial space is a huge expenditure for almost any new company. If most of the set up funds or capital is exhausted in securing premises, then a business has almost no likelihood of proper growth. Purchasing a permanent settlement is also not a good option.

Vampire Weekend - Hannah Hunt
In a recent interview, Ezra Koenig has said that while he worked on 'Hannah Hunt' for about 7 years, he finds that it could not have worked as a track on either of the first two albums. This, if anything, should be some indication of the tone and direction of the New York quartet's third outing Modern Vampires of the City. The track itself is a mastery of minimalism by Vampire Weekend's standards. It's not as ornate with an abundance of influences, but perhaps takes the group's sound into a place Weekend haven't necessarily ventured into before. The more restrained bass, percussion, and piano leave room for an instrument that is sometimes too often overlooked: Koenig's voice. His soft crooning ties all the subtle details of the track together. The lyrics are rich with details and imagery from talk of "crawling vines and weeping willows" to "freezing beaches" that also translate to the beautiful sonic textures that unfold as the track progresses.
The key line that Koenig repeats is one that goes "Though we live on the US dollar / you and me, we got our own sense of time." It represents the essence of the track, which is ultimately about a relationship that once was. It perfectly captures that feeling you get when you're with that one person, that significant other. Things feel right in a way that only the two of you understand, and it's apart from everything and everyone else in the world. But as the song reaches the marvelous piano breakdown and as the vocals intensify, it becomes clear that sometimes things just don't work out despite your best efforts. In this way, Vampire Weekend have indeed matured and grown up. Not only have they mastered a slower, more minimal arrangement with a wonderful build-up, but they've also seen and learned, loved and lost. These lessons come together beautifully and effortlessly in 'Hannah Hunt,' being indicative of where they've been, where they are, and how they've felt along the way.

Hawaii's Top Employers 2013: EnviroServices & Training Center, LLC
2012 Halloween Party.
After serving Hawaii and the Pacific Rim for nearly 20 years, EnviroServices & Training Center, LLC (ETC) believes clients want to hear five very simple words, "We'll take care of it!" In fact, ETC employees turn those words into a promise… a mantra for delivering high quality environmental consulting and engineering services. ETC credits their success to their dedicated employees who care about their work and always strive to do their best. Employees credit the supportive working conditions that enable them to be productive and contributing members to the organization. Whatever the reason, it's contagious and it works... this is ETC's second year in a row to be named Best Places to Work in Hawaii. Happy employees, happy clients!
Management Team.
Creating a friendly environment for their employees to flourish is obvious as soon as you walk through the doors. The largest space in their Ward offices is the "Think Tank" where employees might be discussing technical matters, participating in a brown bag training, unwinding in a massage chair, competing in fierce games of ping pong or taking on Ms. Pac Man. At their Pearl City office you might find employees shooting baskets or BBQ-ing. Camaraderie is further nurtured at annual Halloween parties, family day events, and themed dinner parties. Managers believe that a strong sense of teamwork is the crucial element that pulls their 40 scientists, engineers, and professionals together, and is the most important attribute they look for in prospective employees. Employees also find their jobs meaningful whether they are investigating soil and groundwater contamination, remediating hazardous wastes, or assisting organizations with their environmental compliance or training issues. ETC recognizes employees for their years of service and merit-based performances through service awards, bonuses, tuition subsidies, solid benefits package, and cafeteria and profit sharing plan. But it's not all about them! They also foster a sense of giving back to the wider community. On their office walls hang pictures of staff and families, who volunteered to clean parks, serve the homeless, restore watersheds, and raise disaster relief money. Employees are especially proud of their annual Food Drive where ETC matches one dollar for every pound of food donated by employees (and incidentally the girls beat the boys this year), and their charitable gift fund contributions which added $10,000 last year alone.
It is an honor to again be selected as a BPTW winner and ETC dedicates this honor to their talented staff. They hope to continue to serve the business community and the community-at-large, for many years to come.

Internships are Win-win
Students and businesses both benefit
(page 1 of 2)
These students from UH's Shidler College of Business
The advantages of internships are becoming increasingly obvious to businesses and to college students.
More students than ever are interning before graduating, and businesses small and large are drilling pipelines into universities to find those students.
Universities are making it easier for the two groups to connect. Hawaii Pacific University's HPU Connect Web site lets students and alumni search for internships and upload their resumes for potential employers to view, while allowing employers to post positions, view resumes and collect applications online. Over 640 businesses use HPU Connect, including the CIA, AT&T and the YMCA.
"An employer will call and say, 'Hey, I have a great internship opportunity,' so we'll take the information and create an account for them with HPU Connect and list all the information about the internship, and then that's posted on HPU Connect," says John Barrientos, director of HPU's Career Services Center.
University of Hawaii-Manoa's Shidler College of Business has a similar password-protected Web site where its students can find internships. Over 1,000 companies are registered, according to Richard Varley, director of Shidler's Office of Internships and Career Development. Students can search the internships and send a resume to companies, and, if a company is interested, it will ask the student to apply.
Richard Varley heads the intern and career office at
"We want to make it as much like finding a real job as possible, because that's part of the experience," Varley says.
Varley says the economic downturn has attracted more students to the internship program. When the economy was healthy, about 150 to 165 business students used the Shidler program each semester, but there were 212 this spring.
"Students have the sense the market is a lot tighter," Varley says. "There is no guarantee walking out of college with a four-year degree that you are going to get a job. Now they are saying, 'I need a degree and as much experience as possible,' so more and more students are doing internships."
About 53.3 percent of internships turned into full-time jobs, according to the National Association of Colleges and Employers 2010 Internship and Co-op Survey. Even if the company doesn't hire the intern, the internship increases student's likelihood of landing another job after graduation.
Internships are often a win-win for the intern and the employer. Employers can save money over paying a full-time employee and they have what amounts to an extended interview with the student.
"They get the chance to spend four months with a young person to see what their abilities are, how they handle real work environments, how they handle ambiguity, how they handle stressful situations, and then they can make a full-time hiring decision based on four months of solid experience with a student rather than a one-hour interview," Varley says.
On the flip side, student interns can learn what it is like to work at different businesses or organizations, and gain experience in a profession they may be thinking about entering while sometimes earning a paycheck and credit toward their degrees.
"The students get to understand really who they are, what their strengths are and what kind of career they want," Varley says.
Pays off years later
Syd Kawahakui knows the value of networking as an intern, even if it didn't pay off until several years later. After Kawahakui graduated from UH-Manoa in 2004 with a double major in Hawaiian Studies and Hawaiian language, he took a summer internship at the Hawaii Youth Conservation Corps, where he was a team leader for 10 to 12 children. Kawahakui says he supervised as the children did "outdoor, hands-on projects" on Oahu and the Big Island.
Three years later, he ran into someone he had worked with at HYCC, who told Kawahakui about an opening at the state Department of Land and Natural Resources. Kawahakui applied and was hired as a general laborer before working his way up to field supervisor, where he now helps oversee interns.
Kawahakui says an intern should be open minded, a "sponge" that tries to soak up as much information from the people with whom they work.
"Basically an intern is just a hired servant for you," he says. "We get free labor, basically. But if we see that the intern actually wants this job and is really inspired to do this kind of work, then we jump over hurdles to keep him with us or try to find jobs for them to do."
