Need a Quick Dose of Adventure?
"How r u coming?" Shane Casad's text message read. It was Friday night and I was trying to pack the 4Runner quickly without overlooking the essentials. Tools? Check. Tent? Check. Sleeping bag? Check. Food? Check. Camera, batteries, and spare memory? Check, check, and check. The list was drawing to a close, but not fast enough.
Since progress was being made, I texted "Good" back to Shane. "I am about ready," came his reply. He was way ahead of me. "Dude you are too fast," said my next text. "If it makes u feel better," came the reply "I feel like I am forgetting something."
After rounding up a few last accessories and securing them inside, it was time to shove off. The plan was to meet in Yucca Valley and proceed from there to the Old Dale Mining District, an area Shane's been visiting for twenty years. It was completely new to me.
The lust for gold has drawn ordinary people into extraordinary places for centuries, from the Spanish conquistadores to the Mojave miners. In the process, ordinary people develop extraordinary qualities. Gold was discovered in this area in the late 1800s, and mines dot the area. The effort wasn't in vain. Although much, much harder to extract compared to panning for "free" gold in running water, the hard-rock mining that was done in the Old Dale district yielded gold worth millions. Equipment required for the job included digging tools, dynamite, ore hauling equipment, ore-crushing stamp mills, and cyanide tanks for the final gold-extracting process. It also required water, and several water lines pumped water from nearby wells to the mines in this otherwise-arid neck of the woods.
Even though there's plenty to be seen, a tight schedule left us with only a single day for exploring. Shane's experience came heavily into play here, letting us make short work of navigating and zeroing in on preplanned locations instead of wandering around trying to find our way from A to B.
Partway through the trip between the Vail Mine and the Mission Mine, Shane stopped his Bronco, got out ,and walked back to my 4Runner. "I figured out what I forgot to bring," he stated. "What's that?" I asked. "Toilet paper!" Shane admitted. Over-preparedness had a couple of rolls along for the ride in the 'Runner. There's a reason toilet paper is nicknamed "mountain money."
"I've got some. What's it worth to you?" I queried. "A lot!" Shane came back. "I'm kidding. Here ya go." With that I handed him the roll. Generosity is a cardinal quality when you're engaged in backcountry travel. You reap what you sow.
We left many stones unturned, but still counted this as a successful trip. Even if you've only got one day, there's quite a bit to see in Old Dale.

Whole nations raising their IQ scores in a generation or two means the ability to take IQ tests was improved, perhaps through training, enhanced awareness. If it is true that westerners fare better at these tests because they have been designed in a western cultural frame of reference, why do Korean children who have never been to the US consistently outscore our kids?

This is very interesting. Sowell´s approach supports my own feeling that much of this is cultural, not genetic, when we´re speaking of averages, not individuals. Sowell also points out that open discussion of academic research makes progress, as opposed to the blanket bans on certain research avenues.

While I generally dislike adding to the over-large list of existing criminal laws, I hereby demand the institution of the death penalty for academic malpractice.And,yes, I managed to get thrown out of several universities in the 1970´s for expressing conservative ideas.Zero tolerance for conservatism was designed to prevent conservative youths from ever gaining the power and privilege of higher education.I took the hint and spent 40 years as a plumbing contractor.

Although cultural factors might play a role in the formation of IQs I have to side with Jensen - it is primarily genetic.

Dr. Sowell, forever the free market capitalist. God blessed you, and you me.

IQ is probably mostly cultural but genes also are a factor. We gladly accept the fact that people like Einstein, Tesla, Edison, etc. were geniuses. No amount of study, education or good cultural influence could make most of us anywhere near the IQ´s of those men.A lot of the IQ increase is a result of better nutrition particularly in the US in the early 20th century. He mentions that the southerners from the south testing lower than blacks from the north. It´s probably because many southerners both black and white suffered horrendous poverty in the early 1900´s and the malnutrition that came with it.

Bobcats sweep NCSC
Nearly 150 college students from 67 universities traveled to Georgia for a chance to compete at the 15th Annual National Collegiate Sales Competition (NCSC), hosted by the Coles College of Business at Kennesaw State University March 1-4.
These students are not just competing for the title of champion. They are also competing for job offers from Fortune 500 recruiters from across the world. The NCSC has become an annual hot spot for recruiters who want to hire the top sales students in the United States.
The NCSC, the world's largest collegiate sales competition, pits top sales students in a test of live role-play, one-on-one sales call challenges.
Each sales call is broadcast live to locations on campus where college faculty from across the country and recruiters from sponsoring companies participate as judges and evaluate each student's performance.
Representing the graduate division for Texas State University were Monica Zerwas and Amy Parker. Representing the undergraduate division for Texas State were Mykayla Goodwin and Logan Matson. Rachael Jorgensen served as the graduate team student coach. She was supported by Greg Souquette and Carolina Espinoza, who were also team participants this year. The faculty coach was Vicki West.
Results and this
year's winners include:
Undergraduate Division – Final Four Winners (out of a field of 134)
1st Place: Mykayla Goodwin – Texas State University
2nd Place: Brittany Nagy – University of Akron
3rd Place: Kalie Noll – Ball State University
4th Place: Gary Tam – Queens University
Mykayla Goodwin had this to say:
"Once again the preparation provided by Texas State faculty has set our program apart. Our nationally recognized sales team continues to win and attract the attention of top global companies and hiring our students is a top priority with these prestigious firms. I have been honored to be a part of this program, and I would not have had any of these opportunities if it were not for the continued excellence in our professional selling program."
Each undergraduate team has two members whose cumulative scores through each of four consecutive rounds of selling over a three day period are tallied.
Logan Matson advanced to the "Sweet Sixteen" division. Mykayla Goodwin advanced to the "Final Four" and won the first place award. Their combined scores allowed Texas State to bring home the trophy for first place overall at the undergraduate level.
Graduate Division Overall Champion – Texas State University
1st Round Needs Identification Champion – Monica Zerwas, Texas State University
2nd Round Team Selling Champions – Monica Zerwas & Amy Parker, Texas State University
3rd Round Account Maintenance Champion – Amy Parker, Texas State University
The overall Graduate Division Team Champion is determined by cumulative points in all three graduate rounds, highlighting the importance of both individual and team sales ability.
Monica Zerwas, the graduate winner of the needs identification round, had these comments:
"Our team's dedication to uphold our reputation of excellence was one of the main drivers that helped all of us reach our goals. The Texas State Professional Selling program and its students share an unparalleled passion for hard work."
Nearly 50 companies participated, including: 3M, Liberty Mutual, Henry Schein, Tom James, TekSystems and ADP, the product sponsor for 2013-2017. Previewing elite up-and-coming sales talent who can add value to their respective organizations is the primary reason for their involvement. Additionally, the companies listed above partner with Texas State University's Center for Professional Selling.
Amy Parker, the graduate champion of the sales maintenance round, said, "The chance to represent the Texas State Sales Program at the National Collegiate Sale Competition in the graduate division was an opportunity for which I am deeply thankful."
About NCSC
Inaugurated in 1999, the National Collegiate Sales Competition (NCSC) is the largest and oldest sales role-play competition in existence. Its mission is to enhance the practice and professionalism of the sales profession.

Massage Envy
Like a professor knowledgeable on tulip mania, alien black oil, and a myriad of seemingly esoteric subjects, Massage Envy's certified body therapists ably converse with the gamut of muscle ailments. They'll unravel tense coils of accumulated inner-stress through a perfectly catered treatment for individual clients' needs. Swedish massages offer gentle rubbing for muscular soothing and improved circulation, while reflexology focuses on a patient's crawling paddles, delivering relief to hands and feet to extend goodwill throughout the entire body. A prenatal massage is ideal for expecting mothers who could use a little relief from carrying another person inside them, and a hot-stone Envy massage transforms massage hands into warm-rock fingers that heat pain into a gaseous vapor that exits the body and eventually becomes cleanly filtered rain.

Haxorus is blessed with the highest Attack stat in VGC and an amazing pure Dragon typing, but it must work around its middling Speed backed by only slightly above average bulk. The axe-face dragon learns many noteworthy spread moves in addition to powerful STAB moves. Haxorus's powerful attacks are backed by a great ability in Mold Breaker. This ability is all the more fantastic in VGC, as it allows Haxorus to hit Pokemon with the Levitate ability with Earthquake.
This is Haxorus's most effective set thanks to its flawless coverage and monstrous Attack. Protect stops Fake Out and scouts the opponent's strategy. Dragon Claw is a solid STAB choice, especially due to the rarity of Steel-types in VGC. Rock Slide provides good coverage and breaks Focus Sashes while ignoring Rage Powder. Haxorus is just fast enough to benefit from Rock Slide's flinch rate. Bisharp and other Steel-types resist Rock Slide and Dragon Claw, but take tremendous damage from Earthquake.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
The premise of this set is to grab one boost and attack. Haxorus sits at base 97 Speed, which is below the genies, Hydreigon, and many notable Pokemon. A single Dragon Dance allows Haxorus to outpace these major threats and boost its already monstrous attack to astronomical levels. This combination of enhanced power and speed, combined with excellent coverage and passable bulk, makes Haxorus a very threatening sweeper. Earthquake is the best choice for a spread attack, and hits the few Steel-types that resist Dragon Claw and Rock Slide. Rock Slide is Haxorus's most powerful attack against the genies, Volcarona, and Archeops.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
With a Choice Scarf equipped, Haxorus outspeeds every unboosted Pokemon in VGC. This strategy forgoes a turn of set up at the cost of being locked into one move. Choice Scarf allows Haxorus to outspeed and KO many of its checks, such as the genies, Hydreigon, Vanilluxe, and Terrakion. Choice Band is also viable, and helps Haxorus to muscle through basically every Pokemon. Rock Slide can 2HKO the genies and occasionally nabs valuable flinches. Earthquake is not a move one should use recklessly, as its effectiveness requires one to consider the presence of Flying-types on both teams. However, the ability to hit Levitate users with Earthquake still makes Mold Breaker the preferred ability.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
An Adamant nature can be used to further increase Haxorus's power. HP EVs should be modified when using an Adamant nature to survive any specific attack that troubles Haxorus's team.
Checks and Counters
Bulky Pokemon that cannot be OHKOed by Haxorus, such as Musharna, Cofagrigus, and Amoonguss, can set up Trick Room in its face. Golurk has a lot of bulk and resists Rock Slide. Defensive Scrafty can take anything Haxorus throws at it bar Swords Dance or Choice Band Outrage, and hit back with a super effective Ice Punch. Although rare, Choice Scarf Vanilluxe does a lot of damage with its STAB Ice-type attacks.

Snoop Dogg – I Wanna Rock (The Kings G-Mix) Lyrics
[Verse 1 - Jay-Z]
Hold up, I wanna rock right now
My name is Hov and I came to shake the town
Yeah, your boy's internationally known
But I'm from the hood, got a pocket full of stones
I used to cop "Rob Base", turn it into "EZ Rock"
Just to stay "Doug E. Fresh", all that shit to easy rock
Used to "Chef" Raekwon, give fiends a "Ghostface"
Y'all know my "Forte", I just might catch a dope case
I "Mastered" the "P"
With connects in the Midwest, so I'm "Heavy" in the "D"
Your boy still "Snoop" around
Since a pup, I been "Kurupt" and I fuck with Tha Dogg Pound
Ugh! Roc Nation is the gang now
Some dope lyrics is the only thing I slang now
I "Get the Job Done", I put the "Kane" down
It's no "Biggie" - heh, I'm just a king now
(*Malice N Wonderland!)
[Verse 2 - Snoop Dogg]
G Mix!!!! I was a fiend, before I became a teen
I melted cabbage sacks instead of cones of ice cream
Crime orientated that's how the west was originated
Fitted like pieces of puzzle, complicated
I dropped the sack and tried to rap hits y'all
They tried to bang on me, and say that I'm too small
Cool!!! Cause I don't get upset
I call the king of the east catch a flight then I jet
Right back to the west, where my niggas is at
Scoop the gilly put it back on the map
Like this like that while you rollin a bag
Loadin ya gat, pop pop, I'm holdin ya back
I'm like the Whopper FUCK THE BIG MAC!!!
Run up on the dog my gat go click clack
And that's fo' sho!!!
The reason why, man I don't know so let's go cuz
[Verse 3 - Snoop Dogg]
Boss Dogg chillin', looking like a million
Yeah, nigga got it, I'mma leave it to my children
Tonight I'm on some other shit, and baby loving it
Hella fast, grip they ass like the oven mitt
I'm gooned up, boy! Rich as fuck, boy!
Black and gold brakes, that's my truck, boy
I'm on my Eastside, shit I'm working
I got the party going, and it's jerking
My niggas all long, we rolling out deck
Hoes getting in, you better pick a bitch
Cause when I shut it down, the party's over with
She call me "Superman", I'm on my "Soulja" shit
Boss Dogg get em, I sick em and take em home
West Coast bitch, I'm on my fucking throne
I'm gigging on these hoes, do em like dominoes
And slam em on they back and tell em "vamanos"

Just about two years ago I was assigned to write a story on "Race to Nowhere," a documentary highlighting the culture of testing and stress happening in American schools. I brought my then-14-year-old son to the screening.
We were both moved and freaked out by what we saw, and decided during the 15-minute car ride home to look into schools that focus more on learning and less on testing. He left the public school system a few months later, and although the Husband will probably not get a new car until 2024, today we're happily living without Advanced Placement classes.
Many people missed the local screenings of "Race to Nowhere." The idea was to bring communities together to view the film in order to open a discussion about what is happening to our kids during the high school years. But it's now available on DVD. Click right here to find out more. The people behind the documentary are still pushing the group viewing aspect, which is pretty cool. Maybe your book club or PTO could purchase the video, and those who see it can share their thoughts immediately after watching.
As a footnote, I actually saw it twice, and the post-movie discussions couldn't have been more different. Even though both schools that hosted the screenings were nearly identical in many ways, one school allowed for a natural, casual group conversation, while the other framed the talk in a way that diminished the film's message. My guess is the second school district had heard about the potential backlash among parents.
If you see it, please share your thoughts. I'd love to know what you think. And if you host a screening, I'll bring the chardonnay.

I did not use this wood right away but when I cut it closer to the size I wanted the wood moved considerably.
Very good except sometimes the quartersawn is closer to riftsawn but stability doesn't suffer.
Very nice blank, light in weight, regular grain pattern, no visual defects, and looks very similar to honduran mahogany. Also it was delivered real quick to my door. My only complain is that if it could have its surfaces flat and square it would be much better. I recently bought a blank from another supplier and it arrived in a so good shape that just a light sanding was enough to get it ready for production work. Anyway, this is real good stuff that I recommend.

ANNAPOLIS, MD (August 20, 2010) – Governor Martin O'Malley issued this statement today following the announcement that, for the fifth straight month, Maryland experienced job growth. In July, Maryland employers added 500 jobs to their payrolls, with unemployment remaining steady at 7.1 percent. This marks the best performing January – July period in Maryland since 1999, as Maryland performs at triple the national job growth rate since January.
"Since January, Maryland employers have added more than 40,000 jobs to their payrolls. Our ability to sustain job growth, which is now triple the rate of the rest of the nation, is encouraging considering that national payrolls have declined over the past two months. Maryland's unemployment rate remains about 25 percent below the national average, and our private sector has now added jobs for five consecutive months, proving that in these tough economic times, we continue to improve the conditions that allow businesses - large and small - to create and save jobs."

text: Faculty John Duff Associate Professor of Historical and Systematic Theology Division Bible, Religion, & Ministry Education Ph.D. (Candidate), Calvin SeminaryM.T.S., Grand Rapids Theological SeminaryM.A., Western Kentucky UniversityB.A., Cedarville University email@example.com 616-254-1650 ext. 1202 Field(s) of Study/Expertise Systematic and historical theology with a special emphasis on eschatology of the 17th century.Apologetics and religious epistemology. Why do I teach theology? Everyone is a theologian. I know this because every semester I teach dozens of students who, though having had no previous class in theology, arrive with very distinct beliefs about God—beliefs about who God is, what God has done in the past and what God is doing now. Often these beliefs lack clarity and precision; nevertheless, these beliefs are firmly held and provide direction for students in the ebb and flow of their lives. These students are indeed theologians, holding a vast array of beliefs about God and the world. Although every student is already a theologian, it is my hope that they will become better ones. It is my privilege to help students unpack their beliefs and examine what they believe and why they should believe it. Improvement as a theologian is at least partially an intellectual exercise. Hence, we work diligently to ground Christian beliefs in God's written revelation—the Bible, to state them as accurately as we can, to eliminate incoherent or contradictory beliefs and to understand why there is some diversity of beliefs among Christians about some issues. These tasks can be arduous, unsettling, and sometimes perplexing; they also can be simple, affirming and clarifying. But they are important tasks to undertake, because the most important thoughts a person can ever have are thoughts about God. Yet improvement as a theologian is more than an intellectual exercise; it is a moral exercise as well. Christian theology was never intended to merely help us think well but also to live well. It should never become an intellectual club we wield in order to win arguments; it should be food that nourishes the soul so that we may grow in faith, hope and love. As Christian believers, we are to grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

"I bought these invitations for my son's Bar-Mitzvah. He wanted something unique and "cool." This definitely fit the bill. I was very pleased with the quality and modern look of the invitations. I also received them in the mail very quickly. I bought the response cards as well. I would definitely purchase from this company again."
"This invitation was just what I wanted: classy yet cheerful. The touch of color communicates the spirit of a joyful occasion. Friends agree that it is lovely and perfect. I was thrilled with the quality of the cardstock and envelopes, and the printing was flawless."
"I was surprised by how easy it was to work with TinyPrints and how accessible they were by phone when I had questions. Sometimes, it takes a person-to-person conversation to work out the details because emails and proofs do not always get communication down perfectly. Everyone at TinyPrints was wonderful and I look forward to using their services again!"
"We used this card for our son's bar mitzvah invitations, because we were looking for an invitation that was simple and contemporary. Many people have already commented on the lovely and elegant design. The invitations were printed perfectly, and we received the envelopes very quickly. I had scoured many websites before purchasing this card, but this one was by far the best value without skimping on design. The only thing I would caution is that there isn't a lot of space for wording; you have to make it short and sweet!"
"I was able to personalize this card, including importing Hebrew text for my son's name, and changing the format while maintaining the integrity of the design. I am getting wonderful feeback from people ... Clean lines, easy to read, simple but elegant."

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Princeby J. K. Rowling
Year Six at Hogwarts finds Harry Potter searching for the full and complex story of the boy who became Lord Voldemort.
Killerby Jonathan Kellerman
After thirty-five riveting, internationally acclaimed novels of psychological suspense, #1 New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Kellerman returns with his most stunning thriller to date. Killer is a mesmerizing L.A. noir portrayal of the darkest impulses of human nature carried to shocking extremes. The City of Angels has more than its share of psychopaths, and no one recognizes that more acutely than the brilliant psychologist and police consultant Dr. Alex Delaware. Despite that, Constance Sykes, a sophisticated, successful physician, hardly seems like someone Alex needs to fear. Then, at the behest of the court, he becomes embroiled in a bizarre child custody dispute initiated by Connie against her sister and begins to realize that there is much about the siblings he has failed to comprehend. And when the court battle between the Sykes sisters erupts into cold, calculating murder and a rapidly growing number of victims, Alex knows he's been snared in a toxic web of pathology. Nothing would please Alex more than to be free of the ugly spectacle known as Sykes v. Sykes. But then the little girl at the center of the vicious dispute disappears and Alex knows he must work with longtime friend Detective Milo Sturgis, braving an obstacle course of Hollywood washouts, gangbangers, and self-serving jurists in order to save an innocent life. Killer is Kellerman--and Delaware--at their finest.Praise for Jonathan Kellerman "Jonathan Kellerman has justly earned his reputation as a master of the psychological thriller."--People "Kellerman really knows how to keep those pages turning."--The New York Times Book ReviewFrom the Hardcover edition.
Nightby Elie Wiesel Stella Rodway
When Elie Wiesel was liberated from Buchenwald in 1945, having also been in Birkenau, Auschwitz, and Buna, he imposed a ten-year vow of silence upon himself before trying to describe what had happened to him and over six million other Jews. When he finally broke that silence, he had trouble finding a publisher. Such depressing subject matter. When Night was finally published, over twenty-five years ago, few people wanted to read about the Holocaust. Such depressing subject matter. But we cannot indefinitely avoid depressing subject matter, particularly if it is true, and in the subsequent quarter century the world has had to hear a story it would have preferred not to hear-the story of how a cultured people turned to genocide, and how the rest of the world, also composed of cultured people, remained silent in the face of genocide.
Animal Farmby George Orwell
George Orwell's classic satire of the Russian Revolution is an intimate part of our contemporary culture. It is the account of the bold struggle, initiated by the animals, that transforms Mr. Jones's Manor Farm into Animal Farm--a wholly democratic society built on the credo that All Animals Are Created Equal. Out of their cleverness, the pigs Napoleon, Squealer, and Snowball emerge as leaders of the new community in a subtle evolution that proves disastrous. The climax is the brutal betrayal of the faithful horse Boxer, when totalitarian rule is reestablished with the bloodstained postscript to the founding slogan: But some Animals Are More Equal Than Others. . . .
Little House on the Prairieby Laura Ingalls Wilder
The adventures continue for Laura Ingalls and her family as they leave their little house in the Big Woods of Wisconsin and set out for Kansas. They travel for many days in their covered wagon until they find the best spot to build their little house on the prairie. Soon they are planting and plowing, hunting wild ducks and turkeys, and gathering grass for their cows. Sometimes pioneer life is hard, but Laura and her folks are always busy and happy in their new little house.
The Boxcar Children (Boxcar Children #1)by Gertrude Chandler Warner
One warm night four children stood in front of a bakery. No one knew them and where they had come from. Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny are a family of brothers and sisters-and they're orphans, too. The only way they can stay together is to try and make it on their own. But where will they live? One night, during a storm, the children find an old red boxcar that keeps them warm and safe. The children decide to make it their home-and become The Boxcar Children!

Sixteen-year-old Miles' first year at Culver Creek Preparatory School in Alabama includes good friends and great pranks, but is defined by the search for answers about life and death after a fatal car crash.
Disney After Dark (The Kingdom Keepers #1)by Ridley Pearson
In this fantastical thriller, five young teens tapped as models for theme park "guides" find themselves pitted against Disney villains and witches that threaten both the future of Walt Disney World and the stability of the world outside its walls. Using a cutting-edge technology called DHI-which stands for both Disney Host Interactive and Daylight Hologram Imaging- Finn Whitman, an Orlando teen, and four other kids are transformed into hologram projections that guide guests through the park. The new technology turns out, however, to have unexpected effects that are both thrilling and scary. Soon Finn finds himself transported in his DHI form into the Magic Kingdom at night. Is it real? Is he dreaming? Finn's confusion only increases when he encounters Wayne, an elderly Imagineer who tells him that the park is in grave danger. Led by the scheming witch, Maleficent, a mysterious group of characters called the Overtakers is plotting to destroy Disney's beloved realm, and maybe more. This gripping high-tech tale will thrill every kid who has ever dreamed of sneaking into Walt Disney World after hours and wondered what happens at night, when the park is closed. Ages 10 and up
The Westing Gameby Ellen Raskin
The mysterious death of an eccentric millionaire brings together an unlikely assortment of heirs who must uncover the circumstances of his death before they can claim their inheritance.
The Pearlby John Steinbeck
From the book jacket: In this short book illuminated by a deep understanding and love of humanity, John Steinbeck retells an old Mexican folk tale: the story of the great pearl, how it was found, and how it was lost. For the diver Kino, finding a magnificent pearl means the promise of a better life for his impoverished family. His dream blinds him to the greed and suspicions the pearl arouses in him and his neighbors, and even his loving wife cannot temper his obsession or stem the events leading to the tragedy. For Steinbeck, Kino and his wife illustrate the fall from innocence of people who believe that wealth erases all problems. Originally published in 1947, The Pearl shows why Steinbeck's style has made him one of the most beloved American writers: it is a simple story of simple people, recounted with the warmth and sincerity and unrivaled craftsmanship Steinbeck brings to his writing. It is tragedy in the great tradition, beautifully conveying not despair but hope for mankind.
The Goldfinchby Donna Tartt
The author of the classic bestsellers The Secret History and The Little Friend returns with a brilliant, highly anticipated new novel.Composed with the skills of a master, The Goldfinch is a haunted odyssey through present day America and a drama of enthralling force and acuity.It begins with a boy. Theo Decker, a thirteen-year-old New Yorker, miraculously survives an accident that kills his mother. Abandoned by his father, Theo is taken in by the family of a wealthy friend. Bewildered by his strange new home on Park Avenue, disturbed by schoolmates who don't know how to talk to him, and tormented above all by his unbearable longing for his mother, he clings to one thing that reminds him of her: a small, mysteriously captivating painting that ultimately draws Theo into the underworld of art. As an adult, Theo moves silkily between the drawing rooms of the rich and the dusty labyrinth of an antiques store where he works. He is alienated and in love-and at the center of a narrowing, ever more dangerous circle. The Goldfinch is a novel of shocking narrative energy and power. It combines unforgettably vivid characters, mesmerizing language, and breathtaking suspense, while plumbing with a philosopher's calm the deepest mysteries of love, identity, and art. It is a beautiful, stay-up-all-night and tell-all-your-friends triumph, an old-fashioned story of loss and obsession, survival and self-invention, and the ruthless machinations of fate.
The Kite Runnerby Khaled Hosseini
This is a story of Afghanistan in the time before the war, This is a story of Amir, the son of a rich man in Afghanistan and Hassan, the son of the rich man's servant. They were best friends, inseparable. However, Amir's betrayal changes this.

She's as magical as the desert sky and as mysterious as her own name. When she arrives at quiet Mica High in a burst of color and sound, the students are enchanted. At first. Then they turn on her. Stargirl is suddenly shunned for everything that makes her different. And Leo Borlock, panicked and desperate with love, urges her to become the very thing that can destroy her: normal. Within this celebration of nonconformity lies an emotional tale about the perils of popularity -- and the thrill and inspiration of first love.
Unbrokenby Laura Hillenbrand
On a May afternoon in 1943, an Army Air Forces bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the ocean surface, a face appeared. It was that of a young lieutenant, the plane's bombardier, who was struggling to a life raft and pulling himself aboard. So began one of the most extraordinary odysseys of the Second World War.The lieutenant's name was Louis Zamperini. In boyhood, he'd been a cunning and incorrigible delinquent, breaking into houses, brawling, and fleeing his home to ride the rails. As a teenager, he had channeled his defiance into running, discovering a prodigious talent that had carried him to the Berlin Olympics and within sight of the four-minute mile. But when war had come, the athlete had become an airman, embarking on a journey that led to his doomed flight, a tiny raft, and a drift into the unknown.Ahead of Zamperini lay thousands of miles of open ocean, leaping sharks, a foundering raft, thirst and starvation, enemy aircraft, and, beyond, a trial even greater. Driven to the limits of endurance, Zamperini would answer desperation with ingenuity; suffering with hope, resolve, and humor; brutality with rebellion. His fate, whether triumph or tragedy, would be suspended on the fraying wire of his will.In her long-awaited new book, Laura Hillenbrand writes with the same rich and vivid narrative voice she displayed in Seabiscuit. Telling an unforgettable story of a man's journey into extremity, Unbroken is a testament to the resilience of the human mind, body, and spirit.BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Laura Hillenbrand's Seabiscuit.

Minecraftby Jennifer Hawkins Daniel Goldberg Linus Larsson
Three years ago, 32-year-old Markus "Notch" Persson of Stockholm was an unknown and bored computer programmer. Today, he is a multi-millionaire international icon. Minecraft, the "virtual Lego" game Markus crafted in his free time, has become one of the most talked about activities since Tetris. Talked about by tens of millions of people, in fact. It is the story of unlikely success, fast money, and the power of digital technology to rattle an empire. And it is about creation, exclusion, and the feeling of not fitting in.Here Markus opens up for the first time about his life. About his old Lego-filled desk at school. About the first computer his father brought home one day. But also about growing up in a family marked by drug abuse and conflict. But above all it is the story of the fine line between seeming misfit and creative madman, and the birth of a tech visionary.Minecraft: The Unlikely Tale of Markus "Notch" Persson and the Game that Changed Everything is a Cinderella story for the Internet age.

Boeing installs first Aeroloft sleeping area
By Ben Coxworth
August 30, 2012
If you're rich, you fly in a small private jet. If you're a head of state, however, you might opt for your own 747. Nine such customers have already done so, each purchasing a Boeing Business Jet (BBJ) 747-8 from Boeing. Yesterday, the company delivered the first BBJ 747-8 to sport a new optional extra – an eight-person sleeping area, called the Aeroloft.
The Aeroloft was designed specifically for the aircraft, by Washington state-based Greenpoint Technologies. Installed in the "upstairs" of the plane, between the existing upper deck and the tail, it features eight private sleeping berths and a changing area.
It adds an extra 393 square feet (36.5 square meters) of cabin space to the stock BBJ 747-8, bringing its total up to 5,179 square feet (481.2 square meters).
The aircraft that was delivered yesterday went to an undisclosed client, and should enter service in 2014. Two more Aeroloft-equipped BBJ 747-8s are scheduled for delivery this year.

People wonder why little kids have eating disorders and are on diets despite being about the size and shape that little kids should be... Even if someone is overweight, how is that wrong in any way? I think she's a great role-model because with all of the horrible adds out there about "getting rid of ugly fat" people need to see what real people look like and that this beautiful woman doesn't lose any beauty because of her weight.
You people are joking right?
-He doesn't even watch her morning news show
-He went OUT OF HIS WAY to offend her
-Who the hell is HE anyway to say that?
-IM SURE SHE GOT THE NEWSLETTER>shes fat! SHOCKER...She lives in her body every day, I think she's aware of her "physical condition" That man had no class in going out of his way to hurt another person like that.
Yea, he can if he wants, but why would anyone side with someone so mean spirited. Oh, I guess you people do.
Oh, shut up. That guy's a douche. Claiming she's a bad role model is not the truth and it's ridiculous. She's just acknowledging that words can hurt people or children and she's trying to teach people not to be "pansies". If I called you a moron, HypoFinder, that would be the truth. But, I'm sure you won't let it effect you. ;-)
I am SOO glad this woman stood up to that bully and gave him what for! I am also tired of bullies hiding behind their computer screens all over the internet tormenting people they don't even know. I was so happy to see this and know that there are people brave enough like this woman to stand up and say something about it! God Bless you!!!
She is teaching them to look at who people are, not what their skin or body looks like. She's teaching them to be proud of their actions versus their looks. She's teaching them to ignore ignorant people who aren't intelligent enough to look past a person's size to judge someone. She's teaching them to speak up. She's teaching them to love someone even though that person may not be perfect, because, after all, no one is perfect-- not even you.
She is teaching her girls and the girls that listen that their self worth is more than what appears on the outside. She is teaching them that it is the inside of the person that counts and that tolerance of all people is required to stop the damage that bullying creates. Why....what are you teaching?

I worked at Mueller Water Products
Pros – They do place importance on family. The company as a whole is pretty nice. They have a large participation role in the community. They are a very old and established company and a world leader in their filed. They are the Cadillac of water valves. The company usually has a couple of "special" dinner a year where a spouse can also attend.
Cons – Some departments are very political and promotions are based partly on the buddy system. Some departments are ran in a very old world management mentality and communication is very limited especially between upper management and salary employees. The typical work hours is at least 9 hours a day and at times can reach 80+ hours a week. But at those hours salaried employees get paid for their extra hours. (not time 1/2 but just straight time).
Advice to Senior Management – Communicate more and don't rule by intimidation, you draw more files with sugar than vinegar.
Just because that's the way you (management) were mentored, doesn't make if the correct way.
