Sales engineers sell complex scientific and technological products or services to businesses. They must have extensive knowledge of the products' parts and functions and must understand the scientific processes that make these products work. They often work under stressful conditions because their income and job security depend on successfully completing sales. Some may work long and irregular hours to meet sales goals and client needs.
Sokanu matches you to one of over 500 careers by analyzing your personality, interests, and needs in life. Take the free assessment now to see your top career recommendations!
Sales engineers typically do the following:
Sales engineers specialize in technologically and scientifically advanced products. They use their technical skills to explain the benefits of their products or services to potential customers and to show how their products or services are better than their competitors' products. Some sales engineers work for the companies that design and build technical products. Others work for independent sales firms.
Many of the duties of sales engineers are similar to those of other salespersons. They must interest the client in buying their products or services, negotiate a price, and complete the sale. To do this, sales engineers give technical presentations during which they explain the technical aspects of the product and how it will solve a specific customer problem.
Some sales engineers, however, team with salespersons who concentrate on marketing and selling the product, which lets the sales engineer concentrate on the technical aspects of the job. By working as part of a sales team, each member is able to focus on his or her strengths and expertise..
In addition to giving technical presentations, sales engineers are increasingly doing other tasks related to sales, such as market research. They also may ask for technical requirements from customers and modify and adjust products to meet customers' specific needs. Some sales engineers work with research and development (R&D) departments to help identify and develop new products.
Sales engineers typically need a bachelor's degree in engineering or a related field. However, workers without a degree but with previous sales experience as well as technical experience or training sometimes hold the title of sales engineer. Also, workers who have a degree in a science, such as chemistry, or in business with little or no previous sales experience may be called sales engineers.
University engineering programs generally require four years of study. They vary in content, but all programs include courses in math and the physical sciences. In addition, most require developing strong computer skills. Some programs offer a general engineering curriculum; students then specialize on the job or in graduate school. Most programs, however, require students to choose an area of specialization. The most common majors are electrical, mechanical, or civil engineering, but some programs offer additional majors, such as chemical, biomedical, or computer hardware engineering.
New graduates with engineering degrees may need sales experience and training before they can work independently as sales engineers. Training may involve teaming with a sales mentor who is familiar with the employer's business practices, customers, procedures, and company culture. After the training period, sales engineers may continue to partner with someone who lacks technical skills yet excels in the art of sales.
It is important for sales engineers to continue their engineering and sales education throughout their careers. Much of their value to their employers depends on their knowledge of, and ability to sell, the latest technologies. Sales engineers in high-technology fields, such as information technology and advanced electronics, may find that their technical knowledge rapidly becomes obsolete, requiring frequent retraining.
Sales engineers encounter stress because their income and job security often depend directly on their success in sales and customer service. Some sales engineers have large territories and travel extensively. Because sales regions may cover very large areas, sales engineers may be away from home for several days or even weeks at a time. Other sales engineers cover a smaller region and spend only a few nights away from home. International travel to secure contracts with foreign clients is becoming more common. Some may work long and irregular hours to meet sales goals and client needs. However, many can decide their own schedules.
The median annual wage of sales engineers was $87,390 in May 2010. (The median wage is the wage at which half the workers in an occupation earned more than that amount and half earned less.) The lowest 10% earned less than $51,940, and the top 10% earned more than $146,580.
How much a sales engineer earns varies significantly by the type of firm and the product sold. Most employers offer a combination of salary and commission payments or salary plus a bonus. Some sales engineers who work for independent sales companies earn only commissions. Commissions usually are based on the value of sales. Bonuses may depend on individual performance, on the performance of all workers in the group or district, or on the company's performance. Earnings from commissions and bonuses may vary from year to year depending on sales ability, the demand for the company's products or services, and the overall economy.
In addition to their earnings, sales engineers who work for manufacturers usually are reimbursed for expenses such as transportation, meals, hotels, and customer entertainment. Besides receiving typical benefits, sales engineers may get personal use of a company car and frequent-flyer miles. Some companies offer incentives such as free vacation trips or gifts for outstanding performance.
Sales engineers who work in independent firms may have higher, but less stable earnings and often relatively few benefits. For example, most independent sales engineers do not get paid vacations, a common benefit for many other workers.

ClearOS is an integrated network server gateway solution for small and distributed organizations. The software provides all the necessary server tools to run an organization including email, anti-virus, anti-spam, file sharing, groupware, VPN, firewall, intrusion detection/prevention, content filtering, bandwidth management, multi-WAN, and more. You can think of it as a next generation small business server. Through the intuitive Web-based management console, an administrator can configure the server software along with integrated cloud-based services.
Mutabor is a program that allows you to perform and compose microtonal music using a normal MIDI keybord and normal MIDI equipment. Its powerful description language is intended to allow permanent retunings and complex tuning logic. One application is just tuning. Mutabor has been used for this purpose to make available all pitches that can be reached by stacking perfect thirds and perfect fifths. The stable version 3.0x is available in German only and runs under Windows and Wine. The unstable branch can be accessed via CVS (but build bugs should be expected) or downloaded from the Berlios developer site.
Minimac is a minimalist, general purpose text macro processor. Its simplicity should make it particularly well suited as a front end preprocessor for little language compilers. It is meant to be simpler to use than m4. It uses an explicit argument stack, and user functions are defined by concatenation (similar to the Forth language). Macro expansion is delayed to the last possible moment. The software is currently in alpha release.
GLD-fork is a fork of the GLD program by Salim Gasmi. The fork has been made because the original project has been dead for many years, and some new featured were needed. GLD-fork, as with the original GLD, adds greylisting functionality to the Postfix mail server. Greylisting is a fairly resource friendly anti-spam technique. GLD-fork can easily be combined with other (more resource consuming) tools to build anti-spam protection.
python-managesieve is a ManageSieve client library for remotely managing Sieve scripts, including a user application (the interactive 'sieveshell'). Sieve scripts allow users to filter incoming email on the mail server. The ManageSieve protocol allows managing Sieve scripts on a remote mail server. These servers are commonly sealed so that users cannot log into them, yet users must be able to update their scripts on them.This module allows accessing a Sieve server for managing Sieve scripts. It is accompanied by a simple yet functional user application, 'sieveshell'.

Please excuse me for being too lazy to read back and find the thread, but elsewhere on this site is a discussion of a much easier way to unclog a Briggs Vacuity. I also think that if you go to Briggs' website, there are detailed instructions on the proper method to successfully (and easily) plunge one.
From what I've been told, the newer pressure-assisted (Flushmate) toilets are more quiet than the older models. I put in one made by American Standard back in '97 and, even though it sounded like an explosion whenever flushed, it NEVER clogged.
The professionals on this site swear by the Totos, so in my upcoming remodel, I'm going to give those a shot. I'm beginning to think the biggest problem is that people just can't adjust to the fact that a gallon and a half of water is not going to adequately flush down a half roll of paper and all the other stuff that goes with it. I know a half roll is an exaggeration, but if you tend to use a lot of paper, you need to "flush as you go."

Mosquito repellent just doesn't seem to be enough, find out what experts recommendFargo, ND (WDAY TV) - Summer is too short to be swatting and scratching all season long. Sometimes it might seem impossible to beat the bugs. To combat the problem, people have come up with all sorts of options to repel the biters.
Fargo, ND (WDAY TV) - Summer is too short to be swatting and scratching all season long. Sometimes it might seem impossible to beat the bugs. To combat the problem, people have come up with all sorts of options to repel the biters.
Living in the Midwest, we've learned how to deal with the bugs, but with the latest scare of West Nile, repellent just doesn't seem to be enough. So, we talked with experts who showed us different remedies we can use on ourselves and for our yards to keep us safe.
There are yellow cans, green cans, sprays and candles. Some stink and some don't. The choices aren't always simple - like safety. Do you use DEET or don't you?
Zach Banister – Scheels Associate: "It's kind of a caustic chemical, so it does kind of burn things and it's not really safe to put on kids."
Zach Banister says it's best used in a heavy mosquito populations. For everyday outside play light spray might be the best option - something like, Ultrathon.
Zach Banister: "It lasts quite a while. This will be about 8 hours of protection."
Ultrathon is Banister's first choice for families.
If you're battling a backyard, Dilworth's Mayor Chad Olson says killing the insects is your best bet.
Chad Olson – Mosquito Man, Inc.: "Our goal is to eliminate mosquitos, and then by which we see reduction in the chance of people contracting the West Nile Virus."
Olson's service, better known as Mosquito Man Inc., uses a spray similar to Vector Control, but, combats the bugs right on your property - protecting your kids and pets from the pests. It only takes 15 to 20 minutes to become itch free.
Chad Olson: "When we start looking at mosquitoes and flies and vector born illness, the more we're able to reduce the number of vector insects, the better chance of avoiding those type of illnesses."
If you have a budget to keep the bugs away, don't worry. Most repellents aren't too spendy, even modern tools.
Zach Banister: "Butane operated cartridge; So you put the butane in it, you turn it on, and then, you have these little pads in here that will give off kind of an odor, kind of a cloud protection."
You can find a strong remedy to fight the mosquitoes from any range between $5 and $20.
Some other things you might find just laying around your house are dryer sheets. They're known to fend off insects like flies and mosquitoes just by tucking them in your pocket or your hat.

Yala is the Guna word for homeland, sanctuary, safe place to talk. This is a site about using the Internet to make it safer to talk. In other words, the Yala is a web-based platform for collaboration designed to aid the emergence of collective intelligence.
We need to collaborate whenever we are faced with "wicked problems". Wicked problems are not understood until after the formulation of a solution; they have have no stopping rule. Solutions to wicked problems are not right or wrong. Every wicked problem is essentially novel and unique. Every solution to a wicked problem is a "one shot operation". And wicked problems have no given alternative solutions.
Economic, environmental, and political issues are classic examples of wicked problems. A problem whose solution requires a great number of people to change their mindsets and behavior is likely to be a wicked problem. Therefore, many standard examples of wicked problems come from the areas of public planning and policy. These include global climate change, natural hazards, healthcare, the AIDS epidemic, pandemic influenza, international drug trafficking, homeland security, nuclear weapons, nuclear energy, waste and social injustice.
Collaborative strategies aim to engage many stakeholders in order to find the best possible solution for all. Typically these approaches involve meetings in which aims, issues and alternate views are discussed.
The Yala is one such collaborative approach, which engages those people who are affected in the planning process. They are not merely asked but actively involved. A disadvantage of such approaches has been that achieving a shared understanding and commitment to solving a wicked problem is time-consuming. However, experience over the last two decades has shown the value of computer-assisted dialogue-management in improving the effectiveness of cross-stakeholder communication.

The king played just 31 minutes and shot 9/13 (69%) overall along with 9 rebounds and 5 assists. Wade shot 7/13 (54%) and handed out a team high 6 assists in only 26 minutes. Chris Bosh contributed 17 on 8/14 (57%) collecting 7 rebounds and recording 3 steals. The Heat sizzled from the floor shooting 54% including 10/28 (365) from 3 point range. They also converted 16/18 (89%) from the free throw line, outrebounded Dallas 47-36 and recorded 25 assists despite committing 20 turnovers, most with the final outcome already in hand. Jae Crowder led the Mavs with 15 points off the bench while Dahntay Jones and Bernard James added 12. Dallas shot only 39% from the floor including an anorexic 3/22 (16%) from 3 point range. Despite committing just 9 turnovers, Miami stretched the lead to 91-55, its largest of the season, when Shane Battier made a 3-pointer with 1:21 left in the third quarter. Dallas is much changed team since winning the 2011 NBA title over the Heat, in the star trio's first season together. Miami is now defending a championship this season. Dallas pulled to 36-33 after Dominique Jones had consecutive assists to rookies, a 3-pointer by Crowder and a reverse layup by James. But Miami then responded with a 16-4 run and cruised from there as much of the reserves played late making the final score not as close as it seemed. The Heat improved to 17-6 while Dallas dropped to 12-14.
Nicolas Batum scored 22 points and Wesley Matthews added 20 as the Portland Trail Blazers defeated the Denver Nuggets 101-93 at the Rose Garden. Batum shot only 7/15 (47%) but drained 5/9 (56%) from beyond the 3 point line while collecting 6 rebounds. Matthews struggled but took advantage of numerous chances making 7/19 (37%) from the floor. JJ Hickson recorded his 6th straight double double contributing 18 points and grabbing 18 rebounds despite making only 7/16 (44%) overall. Portland made only 36% of its overall shots but converted 14/36 (39%) from 3 point range and 21/26 (81%) from the ft line. The Blazers also dished out 25 assists and committed just 10 turnovers playing smart man to man and executing the full court trap successfully. Ty Lawson, Andre Igoudala and Corey brewer each led the Nuggets with 13 points while Andre Miller added 12 off the bench. Miller also collected 9 rebounds and dished out 7 assists despite making just 5/14 (36%) from the field. Lawson, Igoudala and Danilo Galinari combined to shoot just 12/38 (32%), which reflected on Denver's overall 39% rate. It was an odd loss for the Nuggets, who missed 22 3-pointers, breaking the NBA record for most attempts without a make - a mark that was set a week ago when the Blazers went 0 for 20 from 3-point range in a victory over Toronto. Denver outrebounded Portland 59-50 but after the Nuggets cut Portland's lead to 84-81 with 4:06 left. Batum made a trio of free throws before Miller added a layup to make it 87-83. Then Luke Babbitt hit a 3-pointer with 2:31 left to give the Blazers back a 92-83 lead. Portland moved back to .500 at 12-12 while Denver fell to 14-13.

A day of public relations
Every year, the Cleveland chapter of the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) hosts Student Day.
This is usually a conference of sort where students from all over Northeast Ohio get to listen to panels of speakers, get resume tips and advice from professionals, etc…
I have attended Student Day the past two years and both times have been great experiences.
A group of public relations students and I got up super early on a Friday to make a trip up to Cleveland State University to attend the event. We were served a nice breakfast and then took a few hours to listen to different panels of professionals from the field.
These people had nothing but great advice for us. Whether it was concerning our resumes and the importance of networking or how to handle interviews, we learned it all.
It is really great receiving advice from all these different people, especially because it is in our preferred field. You know, at school, we go to class, listen to speakers and read articles. Everywhere we look there is different advice, and hearing from these people was so beneficial because they are the people I want to work for someday. I was able to get a close look as to what they are looking for in a potential hire.
In college, we're presented with SO many opportunities like Student Day. I know that other departments, not just communication, have opportunities like this. If you read my previous posts, you would have learned about my trip to New York City where professionals from that industry told me what they think we should do to be professional. Students absolutely need to take advantage of these events because they can learn so much and get a lot of good advice.
I talked earlier about the importance of networking … think of all the professionals that students are able to meet during these events. Like I said, I hope to work for these people someday, so what better way to get my foot in the door than to meet them in this kind of atmosphere?

With the average price of gasoline hovering at around $3.80 per gallon nationwide, you could be forgiven for thinking that owning a gas station might net you some pretty good perks.
Apparently, executives at Delta Air Lines are having similar thoughts. On Monday, the carrier announced it had purchased an oil refinery just outside Philadelphia in an effort to better control its fuel costs.
Alas, for those hoping that will translate into lower ticket prices, the short answer is you probably stand a better chance of getting a break at the town pump than at the airport.
Nevertheless, Delta executives believe that buying the Trainer refinery is a reasonable response to the challenge of high and volatile fuel prices. "Fuel price is now the No. 1 expense," Delta CEO Richard Anderson recently told CNBC's Kate Kelly. "It's approaching 40 percent [of operating costs]."
According to Anderson, the $150-million purchase — "the equivalent of the list price of a new widebody aircraft" — will save the company $300 million per year over five years. Last year, Delta spent $12 billion on fuel.
Delta Air Lines confirmed it's buying a ConocoPhillips refinery near Philadelphia. Richard Anderson, CEO of Delta Air Lines, offers insight with CNBC's Kate Kelly.
"It won't help them save money on a barrel of oil," said analyst Ray Neidl of Maxim Group LLC. "But the jet fuel market is so volatile, this well help stabilize things. It also gives them some insights into fuel markets."
But as consultant Robert Mann of R.W. Mann & Co., notes, this isn't the first time an airline has entered the oil business. In the late 1970s, American Airlines bought a pair of oil exploration and development companies, only to sell them off a decade later.
"By the time they sold the entities, they might have produced enough fuel to power one of their 707s," said Mann, who worked for the carrier during that time. "It didn't produce much volume and it wasn't much of a hedge."
Still, the Delta deal offers some unique advantages. For one thing, the refinery is located in one the carrier's most important markets and will be able to provide a steady fuel supply to the company's operations at JFK, LaGuardia and other East Coast airports. According to Anderson, the combination of the refinery's jet fuel production and fuel acquired through agreements with other producers will provide the company with 80 percent of its domestic fuel needs.
For another, ConocoPhillips, the refinery's current owner, was in the process of idling the plant and reportedly eager to sell. A $30-million incentive provided by the state of Pennsylvania, no doubt, helped move things along.
As for other airlines pursuing similar deals, Neidl is skeptical: "They'll take a look but this was a unique situation," he told msnbc.com. "Delta is big in the East and this refinery just happened to come along. It may not work for other airlines."
Nor are travelers, who are already feeling the pinch of high airfares, likely to get much relief. On Monday, the Department of Transportation reported that the average domestic airfare in 2011 was a record high $364, up 8.3 percent from the year before, and they're likely to go higher still, regardless of the amount of jet fuel the Trainer facility produces.
"In theory, the cost pressure might be reduced slightly," said Mann, "but realistically, no one prices on cost; they price on opportunity. So, no, there's not much in it for consumers."

-- 4th 1938 FIFA World Cup™ France
-- Final Group 1950 World Cup™ Brazil
-- 2nd 1958 FIFA World Cup™ Sweden
-- 3rd 1994 FIFA World Cup™ USA
-- Semi-final UEFA European Championship Sweden 1992
-- Champion Olympic Games 1948
Star Players:
Henrik Larsson, Patric Andersson, Daniel Andersson, Freddie Ljungberg
Approximate Odds of Winning:
AskMen's Rating of Team:(out of 100)
Significant Strength:
Take Sweden for a squad of amiable, composed Scandinavians and you will get burned. The team has a bedrock defense and uses a traditional 4-4-2 formation that proved impenetrable during the World Cup qualifying round. With respected striker Henrik Larsson free to roam on attack, the squad is balanced and tested.
Significant Weakness:
The one area that seems to plague Sweden and other teams from the Scandinavian bloc is a lack of field creativity. Larsson is a genius on offense, but without the proper effort from his supporting cast, his goals will be limited to direct and penalty shots. For Sweden to score enough goals to tally a win in the Group of Death, the midfield and forward wing positions will have to take the odd risk on net.
AskMen's Prediction:
The way the most difficult group in the tournament is set up, Sweden has to put forth a monumental effort to advance. Argentina, England and Nigeria could all lead the way and while Sweden is the favorite sleeper pick of many a football purist, we think the best they could finish is in the basement at fourth.

Get Wired for Short-fuse Sales. If you want to catch the best deals in 2012, you have to be wired. And you have to ask for the deals by signing up for various notifications. Purchase windows are getting shorter all the time. Last year saw the rapid growth of online "flash sale" agencies; now, both established large online travel agencies and major suppliers are bypassing specialist outlets and running their own flash sales. I keep getting press releases about one-day and other very short promotions -- and they often provide some of the best deals of the year.
Use the New Tech. I believe that 2012 will be a breakout year for VOIP calls by international travelers. Currently, MagicJack Plus is promoting no-charge calls to/from overseas locations over the Internet with its small, portable device. I've seen a number of smartphone apps that come close to the ideal that will come to fruition in 2012: allowing you to access the Internet and make calls to/from anywhere in the world without using the wireless phone networks at all at thus not using any expensive online voice or data minutes. Finally, you can forget about outrageous roaming charges or having to buy or rent a special overseas wireless phone.
If you don't already have a Kindle, tablet, or other e-reader, get one. Then you can forget about schlepping a pile of paperbacks for a trip or paying inflated prices at airport bookstores. A special advantage: If you've ever used up your stack of English language paperbacks while overseas, you'll appreciate the ability simply to download as many more books as you want anywhere you are.
Travel for Yourself, not "Travelers." If you're wondering about where to go or what to do next year, those lists of where everybody else is going are really no help at all. The most useful destination lists are those that identify where something special will take place or something new will open in 2012 -- SmarterTravel's Christine Sarkis prepared a good list last week -- including places featuring a special interest you'd like to take in (such as the Netherlands' Floriade) and those hosting events you'd like to avoid (London Olympics).
Ignore those predictions of what "travelers" will do next year and where they'll go. Do you really care what destinations are "hot" or "hip," whatever the writers mean in those vaporous terms? The truth is that the destinations don't change much from year to year; what changes is mostly hype.
Ditto those solemn pronouncements about whether fares and rates will go up or down. You can't change what happens in the broad marketplace, so your focus should be on finding the best possible deals at whatever the prevailing price levels might be.

Hi. I 'm hoping I can get a little advice. I have a place on the wall of a bedroom where the drywall constantly cracks. It starts by the window frame and splits down the corner of the room (sse pic).
I've spackled and painted it a number of times, but eventually (after a month or two) the crack reappears. I think the biggest culprit causing the recrack, is when large trucks rumble down a nearby street and make the house tremble a bit.
Any tips on a permanent fix? -outside of replacing a whole big chunk of the the drywall (I don't have the skill or the money for that right now.) Thanks for any help.

Curious how to turn-off the GPS geo-location information your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad can store in the photos you take? Geo-location can be a handy feature to keep track of where you took travel photos, but it can also raise privacy concerns, especially if you ever lose your iOS device, or someone decides to start tracking you -- or your child -- via pictures posted online.
iOS will ask you to opt-in to the location for the Camera app the first time you launch it, but if you later change your mind, it's simple to opt-out of and turn off.

Just a heads up -- if you send a contact via your iPhone 4S' built in sharing feature, you also share everything in that contact, including relationships set up by [http://www.imore.com/siri). For many this may not be a big deal, but if you value your privacy or you don't particularly want or need a business partner, for example, knowing who your mom is or that playful nickname you have for your girlfriend, you might want to think twice before sharing an entire contact card in the future.
New to iPhone, iPad touch, or iPad and curious how to set up one of Apple's new, free iCloud accounts? Not only is iCloud great for email, calendar, and contacts, it also lets you backup your important settings and information. Luckily, creating a new iCloud account is a very simple process.
New to iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch and iOS 5 and wondering how to configure Notification Center so you get the alerts you need but not the interruptions you don't? Luckily, you can choose between 3 different alert styles, from in-your-face popups to subtle banners to none at all. Follow along and we'll show you how!
Curious how to setup notifications in iOS 5? With all the various banners and popups, badges and sounds, widgets and lock screen options, it can be a little tricky for first-time users, but worry not -- we have you covered! First up, here's how the new Weather and Stock widgets work!
Curious how to update to iOS 5.0.1 -- or any future iOS update -- over-the-air (OTA) directly on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch? Yes, Apple finally pulled the big switch in the cloud and you can go from one software version to the next, OTA and in-place faster than any iTunes restore past. We'll show you how, after the break!
Turns out there's a way to enable that as-yet [unsurfaced iOS 5 panorama mode in the Camera app without having to Jailbreak -- though you do have to be comfortable opening up iPhone backup files, editing plists, and restoring the modified backup. It's not difficult mind you, just a little be of time and effort.
If you're itching to get your tinker on, hit the link below for all the details.
Have a ton of unreal messages and wondering how to just declare email bankruptcy and mark them all as read? iOS 5 still doesn't give you that magical "mark all" button but it does let you mark multiple messages as read in the Mail app, which can help save a lot of time when you're crunching through emails on-the-go.
Wondering how to save video attachments you get in Email to your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad camera roll? In previous versions of iOS, while you could easily tap-and-hold to save pictures in Mail, Safari, Messages and other built-in-apps, trying to do the same with movies -- movies mailed or messaged from other iPhones and iPads! -- did nothing. (Except frustrate me. Seriously. I almost dented my iPhone trying!)
iOS 5 changes that. Now, just like with pictures, all you have to do to save a video is:
That's it. The video will now be saved to your Camera Roll for you to use as you so wish.
If you're new to iPhone or iPad and have just gotten started with iOS 5, you might be wondering how to set up the new Twitter integration feature. It gives you the ability to tweet directly from Photos, YouTube, Safari, Maps, and any other third party applications that request access to your twitter settings. It's also easy to set up. Here's how.

Bernard-Henri Lévy Warns on Anti-Semitism, Stage 6
The famed, if not always celebrated, French intellectual urges all groups to refrain from absurd, counterproductive 'competition of victimhoods.'
Published: Friday, April 14, 2006
I saw as a scholar that this hatred had taken in the times many forms, and that all these forms were dead or dying or at least not in such good shape.
Bernard-Henri Lévy, the superstar intellectual also known by his initials BHL, draws crowds to public speaking events and polarizes commentators in his native France and elsewhere. The harshest U.S. critics have seen his recent American Vertigo: Traveling America in the Footsteps of Tocqueville as a needlessly recondite confirmation for anti-Americans of an "America" prefabricated in Western Europe. In other words, this student of Jacques Derrida (among others) can appear to be the French intellectual that America always already wanted.
Lévy is also the author of Who Killed Daniel Pearl?, about the Jewish American journalist kidnapped and murdered in Pakistan in 2002, and many other books and articles. In an April 11, 2006, talk at UCLA on "Anti-Semitism in Europe Today," he pointed to the weeks-long torture and killing of Ilan Halimi in a Paris suburb. A gang targeted the 23-year-old Halimi in January and left him to die in February because he was a Jew. Lévy wants to know what allowed this atrocity to occur.
Describing himself as a member of the French left who is nevertheless at war with the left, in part over what he regards as its reflexive anti-Americanism, Lévy argued that a new anti-semitism rooted in the left was in some degree responsible for what happened to Halami. More than 400 people packed a venue at the Anderson School of Management for the talk, which was sponsored by the UCLA Center for Jewish Studies, the Center for European and Eurasian Studies, and the French consulate.
Along with some relevant personal history, Lévy, an Algerian-born Jew brought up and educated in Paris, offered the appreciative crowd 1) a rapid history of European anti-semitism, which he said has adopted six successive guises or rationalizations, all but one of them in the last three centuries, 2) an anatomy of the current avatar, whose rationale has three faulty "pillars," and 3) a warning to Americans about evidence of fresh anti-semitic impulses this side of the Atlantic. He said that his talk should give Americans and American Jews "reason to be relieved not to be European but nevertheless to sleep with one eye open only, and not glued to the pillow."
Although Israel "can and must be" subject to criticism, "especially by its friends," Lévy denounced as the first pillar of the new anti-semitism the "Satanization" and "vilification" of Israel "in order to vilify the Jews." The other two pillars of the current anti-semitic phase, he said, are the claim that Jews have cultivated a status as victims in order to silence others, and the outright denial of the Holocaust. For those who deny that Germany's Third Reich systematically killed roughly six million Jews, along with millions of other victims of the massive genocide and purge, the Jews are three times guilty, Lévy said. Guilty of basing victimhood on a lie, guilty of wearing this victimhood as a badge, and guilty of Israel's crimes, principally those associated with its occupation of disputed lands.
Lévy was at his best Tuesday night in denouncing attempts to provoke a "competition of victims" and "victimhoods." He issued a passionate call for respect of all memories of all histories of oppression, saying that the life of each history depends upon the others. Absurd and counterproductive "competition," Lévy said, has aggravated fissures between American Jews and blacks, for example, and further divided Jews and Muslims in Europe.
As one warning sign of a possible renewal of American anti-semitism, Lévy cited an essay by a University of Chicago political scientist and a Harvard professor of international relations on the "The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy," published in the London Review of Books in March. That essay discusses the influence of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, an important Washington lobby, on U.S. policy in the Middle East; at one point it alleges that Israel's defenders stifle debate by irresponsibly accusing their foes of anti-semitism. Lévy did not offer a way out of this stalemate, in which each side's arguments appear to confirm or to anticipate the other's. Nor did he discuss obstacles to criticism of Israel that seem to set the United States apart from Europe. For example, a New York theater company cited political pressure this March in "indefinitely" postponing its run of a play about Rachel Corrie, a 23-year-old U.S. activist who was struck and killed by a U.S.-made, Israeli bulldozer in the Gaza Strip in 2003 while protesting the destruction of Palestinian homes. The play moved instead to a second London theater.
In his opening comments, Lévy stressed that he has taken up the subject of anti-semitism recently and most reluctantly, having spent most of his life convinced that the various forms of this evil "ghost" were weakened and that other causes and crises were more pressing. "I saw as a scholar that this hatred had taken in the times many forms, and that all these forms were dead or dying or at least not in such good shape," he said.
Anti-semitism, he concluded for a time, had become principally the problem of anti-semities: "their neurosis, their illness, their madness." In this regard Lévy, 57, said that he could speak for a generation of French Jews who spent decades nearly free from the old prejudice.

Crafts 'n things Craft of the Day
For a garden that will bloom year round, start with a fabric-covered MAGPANELS Frame-Sized Magnet Board. Create realistic paper flowers with Susan's Garden dies by Susan Tierney Cockburn and back them with magnets. Switch the flowers whenever you want!
- MAGPANELS DIY Framed Magnet Board, 11″x14″
- MAGPANELS Magnets
- Off-white silk fabric with textured stripes or fabric of choice, 15″x18″
- Ribbons: assorted styles in 1/8″, 3/8", 5/8" widths; wired, 1-5/8″ wide
- Frame for 11"x14" piece
- Sizzix Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine
- Sizzix Susan's Garden Dies by Susan Tierney Cockburn: Helleborus, Plumeria, Dahlia, Hardy Geranium, Cattleya Orchid, Narcissus, Bougainvillea*
- Sizzix Susan's Garden Tool Kit by Susan Tierney Cockburn
- Sizzix Susan's Garden Shaping Mats by Susan Tierney Cockburn
- Adhesives: double-sided tape, 1/4″, 1/2″; Tombow Power Tabs; Eclectic Products E6000 Spray Adhesive
*Paper, cardstock, pens, and other supplies specified with each Susan's Garden flower die
Basic Supplies
fabric shears
Susan's Garden Magnet Board
1. Following MAGPANELS' instructions and using spray adhesive, cover magnet board with fabric. Wrap fabric to back of board 2″ on all sides, making sure fabric is smooth and taut. Adhere ends at back of magnet board; let dry.
2. Using photo as guide, apply strip of 1/2″ double-sided tape across top of magnet board, 3″ down from the top edge. Cut nine lengths from assorted, non-wired ribbons. Adhere one end of each ribbon length to tape so ribbons are randomly spaced and tails dangle freely.
3. Using photo as guide, create casually hand-pleated band of 1-5/8"-wide wired ribbon and adhere to double-sided tape strip, covering narrow ribbon ends. (Note: Extend ends of pleated ribbon to wrap to back at left and right side of magnet board, same as fabric.) Adhere ends at back of magnet board.
4. Using 1/4″ double-sided tape, attach 5/8″-wide ribbon across pleated band, adhering ends on back of magnet board. Using second strip of 1/4″ double-sided tape, attach 3/8″-wide ribbon to center of 5/8″ ribbon, adhering ends at back of magnet board.
5. Following instructions and supply lists that come with each Sizzix Susan's Garden die, create realistic paper flowers. Allow time for adhesive to dry. Use Power Tab to adhere each flower to a magnet.
6. Place magnet board into frame. Position magnets in a pleasing arrangement so panel looks interesting when the magnets are not in use. Use magnets to hold photos, tickets, memorabilia, cards, and more.
- Magpanels Frame-Sized Magnet Boards come in four sizes that match standard-size frames (5"x7", 8"x10", 10"x13" and 11"x14"). Your garden can be smaller than the project sample if you need one that fits in less space.
- Magnet board looks best when at least two flowers are "parked" along the pleated ribbon band; make plenty of magnets if you want flowers there all the time.
- The collection of Susan's Garden flower dies is extensive, with dozens of choices beyond the ones shown. Like in a real garden, you can choose dozens of different varieties or stick to a smaller number of favorites (daisies and roses; nothing but poinsettias; only orchids!).
- To change the garden each season or for special occasions, attach the ribbons with temporary tape and switch to different flower-topped magnets and ribbons.
- If you want the option of switching the collection of magnets, but do not want to change the ribbons: Use only tone-on-tone ribbons in shades of white and ivory or another neutral palette.
- Omit the frame; display on a decorative tabletop easel.

A Work of Art - '51 Flattie Style
Kevin Hawkins is well-known in wheeling circles as a builder and driver of Jeeps that work. His first flatfender was affectionately called the "Frog," owing to its green paint and the way it would hop effortlessly over obstacles with its 1/4 elliptical springs in back and gutsy little Buick V6. When he set out to build this '51 CJ-2A, he knew it was going to be bigger, better, and still green, hence the name Bullfrog.
Instead of using the complete CJ-2A body and frame, Kevin procured a YJ Wrangler frame, cut off the back third, and tubed it. He then started a two-month buildup, hoping to finish in time to bring the Bullfrog to Easter Jeep Safari in Moab where he leads the Pritchett Canyon Trail on Big Saturday.
Currie Enterprises built the hybrid 9-inch frontend with trimmed and skidplated housing, Dana 60 knuckles, and Wilwood disc brakes. A Currie high-pinion 9-inch third member was built with 4.88 gears and a Detroit Locker. The Currie reverse-cut Dana 60 rearend has Currie disc brakes, 4.88 gears, a Detroit Locker, and a heavy-duty cover. Kevin built a reinforced bridge over the third member to attach the triangulated upper rear control arm.
Although Kevin's first flattie had 1/4-elliptical leafs in back, this time around he wanted to use coilovers. Sway-A-Way 2.5-inch coilovers and Sway-A-Way hydraulic bumpstops reside at all four corners. Kevin worked a long time dialing in the valving and spring rates so the Bullfrog would work in not only the rocks but also while moving fast across the desert. The rear features a three-link design with long lower control arms and a triangulated upper arm. The front is four-link with long upper and lower control arms. Front and rear Currie Antirock sway bars allow the Bullfrog to be tuned perfectly when on slickrock, boulders, sand, or whatever. HM rod ends were used on the heavy-duty control arms, tie rod, and drag link. Kevin performed lots of tricks when fabricating the suspension. Check out the photos to see some of them.
To turn the 39.5-inch Interco Irok bias-ply tires mounted on Walker Evans Racing 17x9 beadlocks, a 4.3L Chevy V6 was installed under the fabricated aluminum hood. The trusty V6 was mated to a Chevrolet Turbo 350 three-speed automatic tranny and a 3.8:1 Atlas transfer case. Tom Wood's custom driveshafts delivered what power there was to the front and rear ends.

Unless that "third pole" is a grounding screw you have the wrong switch. A switch with 3 "poles" would be a three way switch. When you only have two wires to the switch neither the color of the wire, or the pole you attach it to is relevent.
Have an old two pole light switch that I'd like to update to my three pole. the wires attached currently are tan and red with the black capped. These colors have not been mentioned in any tutorials so i am hoping to get some guidance in wiring correctly. the two screws on the old switch are the same color also. I know the third pole is a ground on the new one.
Unless that "third pole" is a grounding screw you have the wrong switch. A switch with 3 "poles" would be a three way switch. When you only have two wires to the switch neither the color of the wire, or the pole you attach it to is relevent.
You may not be correct in your identification of "poles". If your 3rd screw is green, it is a ground connection, and you do not have a ground wire. If on the new switch, two screws are brass colored, and one is black, that is a 3 way switch, and you have given us no idea that you have a 3-way situation.
On the existing switch, "tan" is probably a white wire discolored by cigarette smoke etc. over the years. Whatever color the wire itself is, it is NOT a neutral wire if it is connected to the switch.
We, and you,.....need to know a lot more about this situation to make a recommendation. Might be time to get in an electrician.
sorry to refer as poles. there are three screws on the new one and one is the ground. It is the same type of switch just newer. THe tan is truly tan, not discolored. I've seen it through the house. Knowing this please advise.
You have non-standard wiring as there is no tan wire in normal US domestic wiring for power, but the ground needs to go the ground terminal, the other two don't matter. All the switch does is connect those two together when you flip the switch on...doesn't matter which one is which - it's as if you twisted them together to turn the light on.
It probably really IS white that has discolored with age.
Jim DeBruycker
Important note - I'm not a pro
Retired Defense Industry Engineer; Schluter 2.5-day Workshop Completed 2013, 2014
well can i safely assume the black is neutral and can be grounded or am i just safer taking those same two wires on the old one , hooking them up to new switch and leaving the black capped no grounding?
okay on the discoloration, it is amazing how it all discolored so much but 50 yrs could do it i guess
You can't safely assume anything.
Install the new switch just like the old one was.
200.7 Use of Insulation of a White or Gray Color or with Three Continuous White Stripes.
(A) General. The following shall be used only for the grounded circuit conductor, unless otherwise permitted in 200.7(B) and (C):
(1) A conductor with continuous white or gray covering
(2) A conductor with three continuous white stripes on other than green insulation
(3) A marking of white or gray color at the termination
250.119 Identification of Equipment Grounding Conductors.
Unless required elsewhere in this Code, equipment grounding conductors shall be permitted to be bare, covered, or insulated. Individually covered or insulated equipment grounding conductors shall have a continuous outer finish that is either green or green with one or more yellow stripes except as permitted in this section. Conductors with insulation or individual covering that is green, green with one or more yellow stripes, or otherwise identified as permitted by this section shall not be used for ungrounded or grounded circuit conductors.
It is very important that one understands the difference between the ungrounded, grounded neutral and the equipment grounding conductors. This is a process that will take more time than I am willing to give on a web site discussion forum.
If you dont understand the difference between the two then it would be a very good idea to keep you fingers out of the circuit as one could be instant death and the other is what will clear a fault and save your life. One is a current carrying conductor and the other should never have current on it.
At any rate any wire other than green or white/gray is supposed to be hot and should never be connected where a green or white/gray wire is connected.
All a 2 pole switch does is make or break the circuit connection. If you connected both the wires together, the light would be on, but of course you couldn't turn it off. Actually, both of these wires should be considered as "hot" and be black wires. The white neutral wire is connected directly to the light and is not switched. Old switches did not have grounds, but today, many lights require a ground so that is included. The ground lug is usually green and located on one end of the switch.
I think I am good with the two screw swap but now i have uncovered the following.
I have looked at two more switches in the house and guess what? None of them are wired the same as the other and different switches were used in two of them. I have an old hall light switch with three screws. One side has a red and black and the other side the tan/white. I hooked up my new switch exactly the way it was on the old switch and the breaker woud not turn on. (buzzed) I had to put it back together the way it was to make it work again.
I also have three switches in one box and I dare not describe that.
I guess i am close to giving up on this. the whole house is wired screwy anyways, there simply is no logic to the breaker setup and what they light.
i appreciate all the replies.
Pray tell what do you mean you are going to give up?
How many times have I heard that anyone can do this?
When you work with switches you have to go by the terminals' functions, not how it compares to the old one, because the manufacturers do not necessarily have to make the new one look just like the old one. There is probably a logic to the wiring system, you just do not know it, and from what you are indicating, you might be wise to leave it alone. Especially if you are wiring switches in such a way that the circuit breaker "buzzes" or "hums". Oh, and you cannot ASSUME anything about wiring, and definitely not that any "black" wire would be a ground.
You obviously do not have any experience with electrical wiring, and since you are confused about what you are encountering, I would urge to to hire a professional electrician. It is entirely possible that the previous own did some wiring incorrectly and makes it very difficult or impossible for a novice to figure out. Wiring, like plumbing, can be far more complex than it looks on the surface.
Heh heh....there is some logic but you need to belong to a secret club to understand it. We have special handshakes and everythingthere simply is no logic to the breaker setup and what they light.
Call someone to help you out.

Sony: Core PSN Gamers Are 'More Adult'
Jack Buser and TGC's Jenova Chen define the PS3 audience.
Whether or not games are art is an argument that will likely never be resolved. But it's hard not to come down on the side of at least some games being art when you play the likes of Flower or Journey, both PlayStation Network exclusives from the minds of Thatgamecompany.
Indeed, it was the co-founder of Thatgamecompany, Jenova Chen, that made some interesting comments about the PlayStation audience in particular, as reported by GamesBeat.
"Sony has a more artistic and adult-focused taste. They care about how grown-ups feel toward their games," Chen told GamesBeat. "The player who owns a PlayStation 3 is more likely to be interested in artistic games compared to Wii and Xbox 360."
Chen's claim isn't exactly surprising considering just about everything he's ever done with Thatgamecompany (short of Cloud) appears exclusively on PlayStation products. What is surprising is that Sony's Senior Director of PlayStation Digital Platforms, Jack Buser, doubled-down on Chen's comments.
"Our primary PSN audience is indeed more adult, and many of our best-selling titles appeal to this demographic. Many PlayStation and PSN games have themes that require a user to think and feel about a deep, immersive gameplay experience, and we see that exemplified in the success of titles like Flower, Journey and Heavy Rain. Titles like these can only be found on PlayStation, and our users enjoy the emotional and thematic sophistication of their games, especially with our digital offerings," Buser told GamesBeat.
Do you agree with Chen and Buser? Let us know in the comments below.
