Project Description:
The purpose of the survey tool is to track changes in job satisfaction of team members over time with results being shared automatically and openly. The survey should be designed to make it possible for team members to respond in less than 30 seconds (ie an extremely quick temperature check of how team members feel).
On a weekly basis, the tool will request team members to indicate how they are feeling towards work that week on a quantitative (1 = "Awful" to 5 = "Fabulous") rating scale. Provision should also to be made for team members to enter free text comments (up to one paragraph) about their work and anything that's been happening in the work environment.
Data Collection
The system should automatically send a survey (as an email response form) to all Team Members at 9am each Friday. Team members should be able to respond by clicking on the rating scale and optionally entering comments then clicking 'Submit'.
Data submitted should be anonymous, however the system should track who has and has not responded (but ratings and comments should not be linked to individual team members).
Publication of Results
At 3pm each Friday, subject to a minimum number of responses being received, the system must automatically generate and send a summary of the results to all team members. The results should ideally include:
- A summary of the number and percentage of responses (eg "35 out of 50 people = 70% responded this week")
- A list of names of the Team Members who responded
- The weekly score, being the average of the quantitative ratings received that week
- A histogram of the quantitative ratings (ie number of 1s, 2s, 3s, 4s and 5s ratings received).
- A chart showing changes in the average quantitative ratings over time, for (say) the past 10 weeks.
- A list of all free text comments (unedited) that have been entered
If the minimum number of responses has not been received, the system should automatically send a reminder email to all team members and reschedule publication of the results to 5pm.
Other requirements
The nominated administrators must be able to maintain and edit the following items:
- The subject of the survey email and a short covering note within the email
- The names and email addresses of team members
- The scheduled timing (ie adjust the data collection and publishing day or times)
- The minimum number of responses required
- The text of the reminder email if the minimum number of responses has not been received
Ideally responses should be done within the email (ie rather than clicking through to a website). The organisation enables team members to access emails via desktop (Microsoft Outlook), webmail and mobile IOS-based devices (iPhones and iPads) – ideally it should be possible for team members to respond to the survey from all of these options.
A combination of an existing online survey tool and custom solution may be used - or a fully custom solution. Freelances are asked to address both development of the solution and recommendations for ongoing operations.

The use of artificial trans fat or partially hydrogenated oil – which is industrially produced by adding hydrogen gas to liquid vegetable oil – is widespread across the world's food production chains and service industries. Aside from the fact that it has the same caloric value as any other fat, there are no known health benefits to consuming artificial trans fat.
Do trans-fat bans save lives?

The always-controversial Lena Dunham strikes again with a new campaign ad for Barack Obama, in which she compares voting for the first time to losing your virginity.
In the video, called "Your First Time," Lena says, "Your first time shouldn't be with just anybody. You want to do it with a great guy." She goes on to list reasons to vote for Obama: health insurance, access to birth control, bringing the troops home from Iraq, the Lilly Ledbetter Act, and gay marriage.
"My first time voting was amazing," Lena says. "It was this line in the sand. Before, I was a girl. Now I was a woman. I went to the polling station and pulled back the curtain. I voted for Barack Obama."
Lena tweeted, "My first time was with @BarackObama – I highly recommend you do the same #Obama2012" with a link to the video, following up with another tweet reading "The video may be light but the message is serious: vote for women's rights."
Reactions to the ad have been split. The YouTube video currently has more dislikes than likes, conservative commentators have tweeted and blogged their criticisms, and Slate has criticized Lena for losing her voting virginity to Obama in 2008, not Kerry in 2004, when she was first eligible. It's gotten plenty of praise as well, with Salon calling it "a cute, sincere spot" and GQ calling it "damn funny."
As always, Lena knows how to get people talking. Let's hope she gets them voting, too.

By John Vogl
SCARBOROUGH, Ont. – Tim Murray sat expressionless as NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly unveiled the Florida Panthers as the winners of the draft lottery. The Sabres' general manager had played out the scenarios in his head during the drive north from Buffalo, and he figured someone would leapfrog his last-place club and draft first overall.
He was right. The Sabres lost all season on the ice, so it's little surprise they lost a lottery, too. They'll pick in the No. 2 slot at the NHL Draft on June 27 in Philadelphia.
"I'm not disappointed," Murray said Tuesday night in a Canadian television studio. "It's kind of what I was expecting."
Despite the continuing run of bad luck, Buffalo will select in the top five for only the second time since 1987. They took Thomas Vanek fifth overall in 2003.
"We'll get a good player, and I think there's a great chance we could get a guy that we have No. 1 on our list," Murray said. "I think with the way the draft sets up, we probably have a better chance of getting the guy that we have No. 1 than we had a chance today of getting the first pick.
"To me, it'll all work out."
There's a chance the Sabres could have two of the top five picks. The New York Islanders own the No. 5 selection, but they have until June 1 to decide whether to give it to Buffalo or deliver their 2015 first-round pick to the Sabres as part of their October trade for Vanek.
"We haven't made our mind up yet," said Trent Klatt, the Islanders' head amateur scout.
New York GM Garth Snow did not attend the lottery.
"I certainly know staying at five there's a better possibility of us getting their pick versus if they had moved to one," Murray said. "There's a 50-50 chance that we'll have two picks in the top five, and we'll be prepared for that.
"I don't have a preference. If it's this year, we know where they are this year. We know it's a top-five pick this year, so we know we're going to get a hell of a player. There's a lot of uncertainty about next year. I'm not a big fan of uncertainty, so we'd be quite happy with it this year."
The NHL has been conducting a draft lottery since 1995, but it revamped the rules last year to give all teams that fail to make the playoffs a shot at the No. 1 selection. The team that finishes last has a 25 percent chance of winning the lottery and retaining the top pick. The rest of the first round is conducted in reverse order, so last-place Buffalo had a 73.5 percent chance of falling to No. 2. It did.
(New Jersey, which had a 1.5 percent chance of winning the lottery, was ineligible because of a salary cap violation. Another lottery would have been conducted had the Devils won.)
Buffalo became the 13th last-place team in 19 lotteries to lose the weighted contest. Florida finished at the bottom last year, but Colorado won the lottery to bump the Panthers to second. They'll get the top spot this year.
"Very good day for the Panthers," said Travis Viola, the vice president of hockey operations. "We're still just evaluating what we really want."
There are three players considered worthy of being drafted at the top: defenseman Aaron Ekblad and forwards Sam Bennett and Sam Reinart. Viola said the Panthers boast their best depth up front. That might lead them to take Ekblad. The Sabres were far and away the worst offensive team in the NHL and have a good corps of defense prospects, so forward might be their desired selection.
Buffalo's scouting staff will meet in May to rank the prospects.
"We have a forward that we have somewhat of a consensus in the group that is at the top of the forward list," Murray said. "We've got a lot of needs. We're just going to take the best player available, whether we feel that's a forward or a defenseman."
The rebuilding Sabres are expected to be a lottery team again next year. The NHL is discussing whether to make changes to the process.
"I still believe in that concept that the worst overall team should have a chance to get better, so that's not going to change," Daly said. "What the managers have asked us to do is take a look at it and see if further tweaks might be appropriate. Having said that, we're satisfied with the way the draft lottery system works now."

Scientists In China Made Glow-In-The-Dark Pigs
Ten glowing piglets have been born in Southern China this year.
In the Guangdong Province of Southern China, ten glow-in-the-dark piglets were born this year as a result of an experiment at the South China Agriculture University.
According to Tracktec, scientists at the school created the transgenic pigs by injecting a fluorescent protein from jellyfish DNA into pig embryos.
Dr. Stefan Moisyadi, a bioscientist at the University of Hawaii medical school's Institute for Biogenesis Research (IBR) said the animals were not hurt by the fluorescent protein and are expected to have the same life span as other pigs.
"The green is only a marker to show that it's working easily," he said.
The scientists behind the experiment hope that by showing that foreign genetic material can be incorporated from one animal to an entirely different animal, they will be able to develop cheaper drugs for humans. According to the Mirror, the ultimate goal of the research is "to introduce beneficial genes into larger animals to create cheaper and more efficient medicines."
6. Watch a video of the scientists demonstrating their glow-in-the-dark piglet research.
7. This is not the first time scientists have made animals translucent. There have been glow-in-the-dark fish, rats, insects, and even cats, Scientific American reports.
After past attempts to clone and inject DNA into fertilized cat embryos failed, scientists at the Mayo Clinic successfully insert novel genes into cats in 2011.

just don't have pie for breakfast
I have had the one hour test when do we do the 3 hr test? How many weeks?
2 Boys 1 Girl 3/13/13
Our Family is Complete!
You only have to do the three hour test if you fail the one hour test. I was told not to eat anything after midnight on the day of the test but to eat normally on the days leading up to the test.
I was also told not to eat before the test.
Welcomed our ODD 4/2/08 YDD arrived 4/16/2012. DS 3/15/2013.
Every doctor has their own "rules". Some say eat light, others fast. I personally have to fast. Just ask yours so you don't have to do it twice.
I also have to fast. Nothing after midnight and test first thing when the lab opens at 7. I say just ask the Dr what they want you to do.
Follow me to SWAGBUCKS! for amazing prizes
My doctor said no food or drinks (excluding water) after midnight. I JUST failed the 1hr test, but passed the 3hr with flying colors. The difference between each: I didn't overdo it with sweets before the 3hr and I chugged LOTS of water (mainly to keep from gagging or puking!). Unfortunately, due to PCOS and a family history, I have to retake the 3hr test in mid December.
Good luck to you momma! I'm sure you'll be fine if you don't typically eat or drink a lot of sugary sweet stuff.
Our princess arrived 3/13/13 @2:27pm. Our family is now complete!

Oh, No!
by Candace Fleming
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This was a clever book. It had a lot of great elements. It rhymed which makes it easier for kids to read. It also had repetition with words which makes it easier for kids to read. It had an element of being silly. There were fun noises to say. The pictures were colorful and it had lots of animals. And in the end everything turned out ok.
Frog falls into a deep hole and several animals follow suit. All the while a tiger is scheming for lunch. Once they are all trapped he makes his move but the ground rumbles from an elephant who is coming to the rescue. They are rescued and tiger falls in. He asks for help but they leave him. This is a good story for talking about helping out friends.
Asian animals each accidentally fall in a hole, one by one- oh no! Tiger is watching and soon falls into the hole as elephant comes to the rescue. Will they rescue tiger too? Oh no!
"Oh, no!" is the reaction when a frog falls into a hole, The "Oh, No!"s continue as one by one animals come to save those stranded in the hole, only to fall in themselves. Eventually Tiger, who has been lurking nearby, offers to "save" them and all seems lost. But Elephant comes along shaking Tiger into the whole and saving all the animals.
The story begins with a frog falling into a hole and he can't get out. One by one, other jungle animals try to help only to fall in themselves. Eventually Tiger wakens from his nap and comes to "help" them out, but the elephant comes to the rescue and the tiger ends up in the hole.

Lake Land College dental hygiene clinic offers affordable oral healthcare
June 30, 2014
The Lake Land College dental hygiene clinic offers affordable dental care to the public while also providing students a state-of-the-art-education. The clinic is now taking appointments for this summer.
The lab, located on campus in Mattoon, in Northwest Building, room 116, offers patients dental exam, cleanings, x-rays and fluoride treatments at $10 for students and $15 for adults. There are plenty of appointments available.
"The students do an excellent job and get to work on their clinical hours," said Deborah Kirts-Thomason, program director. "More than that, patients get cost effective oral healthcare."
Kirts-Thomason said the service takes longer than traditional exams, so patients are asked to reserve four hours for each appointment. However, patients are receiving affordable dental care in exchange for their time. Kirts-Thomason said the lab sees many patients who have no dental insurance. In addition, because of the large work area in the lab, the clinic can work on large families at once. Kirts-Thomason also acknowledged that many patients just like to give back to the local community college.
"We are preparing the hygienists of the future and we would like to give them a variety of experiences. We ask that the community help by providing them with those experiences," Kirts-Thomason said.
Also, Kirts-Thomason highly recommends people remember to take care of their oral health.
"Oral health can impact your overall health, so it is very important to keep your teeth clean and your gums healthy," she said.
Clinic hours are from noon to 4 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and 8 a.m. to noon on Thursdays. Later hours include 4 - 8 p.m. on Tuesdays. Hours may vary by semester.
For further information and to schedule an appointment, call (217)234-5249 Monday through Thursday, between the hours of 1 and 5 p.m.

Emma Stone may be quietly dating her "Amazing Spider-Man" costar Andrew Garfield, but the 22-year-old actress has her eye on another Hollywood hottie: Mad Men's Christina Hendricks!
PHOTOS: Stars in girl on girl action
"It's a no-brainer," Stone tells The Advocate. "Everything about her does it for me. That's my kind of woman."
When Chelsea Handler jokingly asked Stone if she had a girlfriend during an appearance on Chelsea Lately, she couldn't help but laugh. "No, I don't have a girlfriend," Stone tells the mag. "But who knows? You love who you love."
The actress, who appears in three new movies this summer ("Friends With Benefits," "Crazy Stupid Love" and "The Help") also says she'd love to play a lesbian one day. "Send me over a good script," she says. "That sounds amazing."
On second thought, "Can I play a man?" Stone asks. "[Psycho actor] Anthony Perkins would be interesting, because it was kind of a secret thing."

This fragrance is definitely unique, but I don't love it. It smells slightly of apples, but not in a fruity, sweet way like it usually smells. It is more of a crisp, florally smell. I would complain that the bottle is a little hard to use, which should be changed especially since I don't think the current bottle is that cute (although it is cool that it is shaped like an apple).3
I really like the scent of this spray and liked the idea of a hydrating spray. The downfall was it didn't seem to last very long. I'm not sure if it was just me, but shortly after using it, I didn't seem to smell it on my skin. I also didn't really notice the benefits of hydrated skin as a result of using it. Again, the scent was nice, but I probably wouldn't buy a full size.4

Our Lady Peace vs. Sixx: A.M. – Cage Match
Our Lady Peace have taken another Cage Match win with their song 'Heavyweight,' as they most recently beat out Red Line Chemistry. Will they be able to beat out today's heavy hitters?
Our Lady Peace have taken another Cage Match win with their song 'Heavyweight,' as they most recently beat out Red Line Chemistry. Will they be able to beat out today's heavy hitters?
Sixx: A.M. took to the stage for a burning performance at the 2012 Revolver Golden Gods Awards tonight (April 11) of their singles 'This is Gonna Hurt' and 'Are You with Me,' marking their first live performance in nearly four years.
Can't make it to Los Angeles tonight (April 11) to take in the 2012 Revolver Golden Gods? Don't fret! You can head over to Revolver's Golden Gods Facebook page or log in to your Xbox game console and stream the live broadcast.
Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx's band Sixx: A.M. have released their brand new single, 'Are You With Me Now,' off of their album 'This Is Gonna Hurt.'
Guns N' Roses are always a hot topic when it comes to rock' n' roll and lead guitarist DJ Ashba has been one busy axeman. He is also the guitarist of Nikki Sixx's band Sixx: A.M., so when DJ Ashba spoke to Sandman of Loudwire Radio, he dished on everything from the future of Guns N' Roses and uncertainty about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as well as working with Sixx: A.M. and their upcoming performance at Revolver's Golden Gods awards. Check out the interview below:
Guitarist, songwriter, and producer DJ Ashba has seen his career skyrocket over the last few years, first as an integral part of Sixx:A.M. with Nikki Sixx and James Michael and then as the guitar player of Guns N' Roses, joining Axl Rose on his tour across the world. Ashba recently opened up to Bravewords in an interview about his future with Guns N' Roses, how he prepares to write for individual projects, and how Nikki Sixx and Axl Rose have become his best friends.
Nikki Sixx, who doesn't appear to have a moment of downtime thanks to the fact that he pulls double duty in both Motley Crue and Sixx: A.M. and writes books, posted a Facebook update to share some good news about Sixx: A.M. The group is already writing its third album and is possibly eyeing a 2013 release.
Sixx: A.M. Holiday Prize Pack Giveaway
Sixx: A.M. recently surprised fans with word that a new EP was in the works. However, this isn't just any EP, it's a collection of previously recorded songs, that are stripped down, dissected and built back up again by the band, giving a totally new spin on old favorites.
Super trio Sixx: A.M. includes Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx, DJ Ashba of Guns N'Roses and frontman James Michael, and the guys have released two studio albums together: 'The Heroin Diaries' and 'This Is Gonna Hurt.' On Dec. 13, the group is releasing a new collection of tracks, which aim to put a new spin on previously released songs.

CLINTON — A federal judge has rejected a plea agreement calling for probation for a former Iowa postal employee who stole dozens of greeting cards containing cash, saying her actions deprived the intended recipients of emotional support.
U.S. District Judge Mark Bennett ruled last week that giving Charmagne LaPoint probation would ignore the "significant non-monetary harm" she caused people who never received cards from loved ones and friends. LaPoint's proposed sentence, in a plea agreement reached with federal prosecutors, was based too much on the relatively low amount that she admitted embezzling, he wrote.
LaPoint pleaded guilty to mail theft by a postal employee, admitting that she ripped open roughly 40 greeting cards that she believed contained cash. If the mail contained checks, she'd try to reseal the envelope and deliver it. Otherwise, she would take the cash and throw the mail away at the post office or her apartment. The theft occurred during a one-month span when she was temporarily substituting for the postmaster in Wesley, a small town 120 miles north of Des Moines.
In all, she stole cash, gift cards and a laptop computer worth $1,294 and has paid that amount in restitution. But Bennett said that didn't tell the whole story.
He noted that one of LaPoint's victims never received sympathy cards following the death of her father, and could not thank those who sent condolences. That woman lost trust in the post office, which caused her to stop mailing packages to her son in the military and to travel to neighboring cities to drop off mail. Dozens of others never received a variety of cards intended for them, he said.
"It is one thing to steal someone's money; it is another thing entirely to steal someone's emotional support in times of joy, celebration, grief, or danger. The latter is often far more injurious than the former," Bennett wrote.

A console application is a computer program designed to be used via a text-only computer interface, such as a text terminal, the command line interface of some operating systems (Unix, DOS, etc.) or the text-based interface included with most Graphical User Interface (GUI) operating systems, such as the Win32 console in Microsoft Windows, the Terminal in Mac OS X, and xterm in Unix. A user typically interacts with a console application using only a keyboard and display screen, as opposed to GUI applications, which normally require the use of a mouse or other pointing device. Many console applications such as command line interpreters are command line tools, but numerous text-based user interface (TUI) programs also exist.
As the speed and ease-of-use of GUI applications have improved over time, the use of console applications has greatly diminished, but not disappeared. Some users simply prefer console based applications, while some organizations still rely on existing console applications to handle key data processing tasks.

The sequel to Monday Begins on Saturday by the Strugatsky Brothers. In this novel, the enthusiastic mage-scientists from Monday have to tackle the impenetrable Soviet bureaucracy, represented by a group of rogue administrators who lord it over a Secret Government Warehouse. The Brothers created two complementary versions of the novel, one more idealistic, and the other more cynical. This is reflected throughout both works, and their endings. The settings, characters, and the overall plot in each story are all very similar in some ways, and very different in others.
Tropes found in the novel:

LEXINGTON COUNTY, SC — Steady population growth is pushing Lexington County election officials to seek to ease overcrowding in a pair of precincts in the Chapin and Gilbert areas while possibly adding a new one in Red Bank.
The changes – the fourth set proposed since 2005 – are necessary to prevent lengthy delays in voting, county election director Dean Crepes said.
"We're constantly having to adjust with population growing," he said. "We're always looking at how to improve voter flow."
That's a precaution against the problems and mistakes that backed up voting lines in neighboring Richland County as much as seven hours last year.
Lexington County officials want voters to wait no more than 30 minutes during busy periods before and after work for commuters, with minimal delay otherwise.
There are 165,000 registered voters in the 720-square-mile county, up nearly 5,000 in a year.
Changes in the works would move some voters to adjoining precincts:
• About 800 of nearly 3,300 voters in the Amicks Ferry precinct near Chapin would be shifted to Dreher Island precinct that now has nearly 1,000.
• About 800 of nearly 2,400 voters in the Pond Branch precinct near Gilbert would be moved to the Fairview and Mims precincts, with each gaining about 400 to bring their totals, respectively, to 1,200 and 800.
• Boiling Springs South precinct in Red Bank may be split to create a 93rd precinct out of concern that parking at a community center where ballots are cast has become inadequate to handle its 2,400 voters.
Each change also is designed to reduce travel distance to the polls.
Election officials want the changes in place for statewide and legislative races on the November 2014 ballot.
The changes require legislative approval, usually given without resistance.
"We'll evaluate it for possible problems, but they're the professionals on this, so you follow what they feel is best," said state Rep. Todd Atwater, R-Lexington.
Crepes plans to open polling spots in the north and southern parts of the county in addition to election headquarters in the town of Lexington to allow balloting to start a few weeks in advance of the traditional November date, if lawmakers agree. He likes the idea, saying it would make balloting "more efficient." Based on absentee ballot trends, Crepes estimates 50,000 county voters would take advantage of that if allowed.
Currently, 16 of 92 precincts have more than 2,200 voters – the maximum that Crepes wants – while another nine are near that ceiling.
For now, the 648 voting machines on hand seem adequate, he said.
That is about 30 less than the state standard of one machine per 250 voters. But it's sufficient to handle the usual turnout of up to three-fourth of voters at any ballot, Crepes said.
County officials run numerous equipment checks and update poll workers training before each ballot to reduce the chance of election-day snafus.
The effort and computerized ballots have improved the speed in reporting outcomes in the past decade, ending the county's reputation for slow counts.
"After every election, we look at the situation to keep improving," Crepes said.

Borg, this one's yours...
All over again?
Ok, I'll bite.
Tactics the the calculation of moves and responses to moves. Its the ability to visualize and say "ok, i go here, he goes there, i go there, im up a pawn at the end." The result of tactical victories is typically material, meaning you end up having more forces to work with than the other guy does. For new or lower level players tactics is critical. You have to be able to keep your forces safe and see where you can threaten the opponent. If you are dropping material without compensation no amount of strategic thinking will help.
Strategy is concerned with elements of the position that do not deal directly with with material gain or loss. This could be things like controlling space, diagonals, files, or key squares, making your pieces more active and limiting the activity of the enemy pieces, creating positions that favor the type of minor pieces you have, pawn structure, etc. All of this kind of thing is important, and becomes more important as you improve a player, but it is often said that chess is 99% tactics. As I said above, tactics first. Without sound tactics the pressure that good strategic thinking brings can not be made effective.
