How to create the perfect Profile?
Profile Image
Make sure your Profile image is clear and inviting. We suggest using a picture of yourself to build the trust between you and the viewer but using a portfolio image is perfectly acceptable. The Profile image can adapt to any dimension but a square image tends to work best. Keep the image to under 1mb in size and in .jpg or .png format.
Your Details
The more precise information you provide, the more likely you are to get the job. Why? Because employers will have many applicants to choose from and they don't want to scramble around for your details. Make sure you include your social media links too so others can connect and keep in touch. Another tip is to add in your skill set as this will make you more 'searchable'. Keep the Mini Bio short, sweet and precise. This is an opportunity to tell the world about your experience, so name drop and BIG UP YOURSELF!
Your Portfolio
"Quality over quantity". Particularly when you're starting out as a freelancer there is a temptation to include every image you've ever worked on - DONT!. Employers much prefer to see quality images over repetitious shots. Diversity in you portfolio can show your range and increase the chances of landing different types of jobs whilst showing your identity has many advantages. Keep an eye on the quality of the image files too. Low res images will pixelate and look cheap so try to upload images that are at least 500kb. Pro Members should create Galleries to separate their work. When an employer searches, the name of that gallery will show so it pays to be organised.
How do I apply for jobs?
Applying for jobs couldn't be easier. Once you're happy with your Profile, visit SEARCH JOBS under the JOBS menu and search for positions that you'd like to apply for. Use the search filter to choose location, job type and any key words you'd like to include. When you've found a job that you'd like to apply for click on the DETAILS of the job and click SEND QUOTE. Add a message, a quote and choose which portfolio you'd like to send them. That's it! The employer will receive a notification to say that you've applied and will decide if you're the right freelancer for the job.
How do I know if I landed the job?
When an employer receives an application to a job, they can choose to mark you as unsuccessful, shortlist you or give you the job. When the employer chooses one of these options, you'll be notified via email. If you get the job, the employer will be prompted to message you with the details.
How do I promote my Profile?
One of the best features on The Freelancer Club is the ability to promote your Profile. When an employer or another freelancer is looking for a freelancer they will typically use our Find a Freelancer feature. This allows the viewer to search for freelancers by location, skill or discipline. When they run a search, the list of applicable Profiles will appear in a certain order. The order of the Profiles is calculated by a number of factors based on whether the Profile is a Pro or Free Member, if the Profile has been award a TFC APPROVED badge, how active the Profile is and how many likes the Profile has received. Here's the order from top to bottom:
To promote your Profile and get to the top of the rankings, you must have a hot portfolio, promote your images to others to gain more LIKES (use the social media share buttons) and be award the TFC APPROVED badge.
What is the TFC APPROVED badge and how to I get one?
The TFC APPROVED badge is not something you can buy or beg for - you've got to earn it. We award the TFC APPROVED badge to freelancers who we feel are doing the the freelancer name proud. We look for freelancers who are very active on the site, who apply for jobs regularly, keep their Portfolio up to date, who produce strong work within their field and who show us the true meaning of freelancing. Only Pro members are applicable for the TFC APPROVED badge.
How do I check my Messages?
To check your messages, click on the envelope icon at the top of the site. If you have new messages, the icon will show a number. Once you've clicked into your messages, you will see your inbox on the left hand side. Simply click on the message you wish to read and you will see the whole message. You can reply here too.
To delete a message, check the box beside the message on the left and choose the LIST icon above the inbox then click DELETE.
To send a group message, choose COMPOSE (a new message) then type the name of the person you'd like to message and click their name when it appears on the list. You can add up to 8 people in a group message and they will all be able to see the conversion and reply to the group (a great way to collaborate).
How do I promote my Work?
Aside from using the Social Media share buttons on each image page, to promote your Portfolio you must allow your work to appear on the Image Wall when you first upload it. The Image Wall is a shop window for freelancers to promote their work. We actively promote the Image Wall to the best publications, brands and advertisers around the world to help you gain exposure and potentially get published or sell your work. By agreeing to add your work to the Image Wall, you are allowing others (magazines, employers, brands) to view your image and potentially use it for their project. Fear not - it's not a free for all and it's against regulations (and copyright law) for them to simply take the image. They must first contact you to discuss where they plan on using it and whether they are willing to pay you for the image.
How do I find and contact Freelancers?
Good question, glad you asked. Finding Freelancers is easy. Click on Find a Freelancer menu option and run a search. Click on the Profiles you like and send them a message. If you're a bit shy, you can always LIKE their work by clicking on one of their images and pressing the LIKE button (the heart icon) below the pic. If you'd like to say something about the image, leave a COMMENT (try to be nice!).
How do I post a job or arrange a test shoot?
To find a specific Freelancer, you can post a job or test shoot and let them come to you! Posting a job is fast, free and effective. Go to the JOBS menu option and choose POST A JOB (or click POST A JOB on the top right hand button on any screen). Fill in the job specifics and be as detailed as possible (do not include an email address or telephone number as these will be excluded). The more information you include, the more likely you are to find the right candidate. Choose if it's a Test Shoot (collaborative), Unpaid (Internship or Work Experience) or a Paid Job. We always recommend including a budget, no matter how small, as it will improve your chances of finding the perfect candidate and increase the chances of them showing up! We DO NOT post jobs that are Unpaid for commercial gain - check our our Twitter campaign #NOFREEWORK.
How do I manage applicants?
Once you've posted a job, next you must choose your favourite. Log in and, under the JOBS menu item, choose MY LISTINGS. In here, you can manage all your job posts. Choose the job post you'd like to manage and click DETAILS. Here you'll see how many applicants have applied. To manage them click MANAGE JOB (the green button on the right). Now, you'll see all the applicants who have applied for your job. You can look at their portfolio and bio then choose if you'd like to Shortlist them, mark them as Unsuccessful or give the Job. Always follow up successful candidates with a message about the job and provide them with the details. A really cool feature is Separate Group Messaging (stay with me!) so if you have a Shortlist and you'd like more info from all your Shortlisted candidate, you can send the same message to the entire list. The beauty is that they will receive the information without seeing the others in the message and reply back as an individual message (like BCC in an email). You can also Group Message so everyone is involved, but we'll get to that later.
How do I use the Business Directory?
The Business Directory can be found under our RESOURCES menu and is a very simple but very useful tool. We've built up years of contacts within a number of fields for you to capitalise on. Choose the Category you'd like details on and/or the location (or search by keyword) and you'll see a variety of businesses and brands at your disposal. The Directory is great for finding a model agency, bookkeeper, wedding fair, creative agency or whatever it is you need at the time. Please note that only Pro Members can click through to the details of the Business Directory.
I'm rubbish at business, can you help?
But of course we can. The Freelancer Club specialises in supporting freelancers and getting your business off the ground. In addition to our Meet Ups and Virtual Networking Sessions, we have some of the finest Mentors available who specialise in a variety of key areas.

The question is, how can you tell when its charging at the lower (usb) rate as opposed to full rate (wall charger)? Is there a different icon or something.

Creating a handmade jewelry collection that speaks to both an exploration of geometry and beauty would seem to be a stretch, but such is not the case with Thea Izzi. Her exquisite collection of modern handmade pieces is at once sculptural and elegant, which is truly a remarkable achievement.
There are so many stunning designs in this handmade jewelry collection, it's little wonder her customers give her work rave reviews. As one notes, "The work reflects a timeless archetypal connection with nature and the natural form, as interpreted through the eyes (and hands!) of an artist that lives and breathes beauty." Once you take a look, I think you'll agree: this is a modern handmade jewelry collection that is a feast for the eyes and a celebration of creativity. Enjoy this fresh interview with this talented artist and be sure to explore her handmade jewelry collection for yourself and follow her on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest and Twitter.
What inspired you to begin your handmade jewelry collection?
The true inspiration for the jewelry I create is somewhat of a mystery. I love simple, elegant and clever designs but I'm also drawn to the divine feminine, natural geometry and modern sculpture. I am drawn to geometric forms that are balanced and still retain a feeling of joy. I also pay attention to contrasts in color and the play between positive and negative space. My hope is that when women wear my jewelry, they will tap into the Divine Feminine within them and find inner strength and outward beauty.
Describe your creative process. Where do you start?
My best ideas have come from a very unconscious place and result from a state of presence much like that which occurs when I am dancing or singing which is how I find my own inner strength and beauty. I can also realize later that I was unconsciously inspired by a something in my environment that I see every day, like a detail in a painting that's in my bedroom or a drain pattern. Those are both real examples!
I created my first collection from a silver link necklace I designed while in school. It was the repeated pattern link assignment. I call it "The Mother" necklace because every idea that I've developed over the last 20 years evolved from that piece. I recently retired the design but repeated patterns are still a big theme in my work.
Ideas come from playful experimentation. My desk is completely covered with various elements and works in progress. One entire collection grew from the act of absent mindedly folding a flat washer shape then folding it again and tossing it to the back of the bench. It sat there for a month until I realized it's potential. Several ideas have come from the exploration of what to do with leftover pieces from another design. Resourcefulness gets me excited.
Once a good idea is born, I run with it. Can it be a whole line? How will it work as a necklace or earrings or bracelet? How will it feel on the body? How can I keep it uncomplicated but still interesting? Will it replicate easily? Most importantly, will it bring a feeling of joy and confidence to the wearer? That's the true designer in me.
How do you maintain your creative drive?
Creatively, I have no shortage of inspiration or drive. There are more than enough ideas waiting to be born. My challenge is getting stuck by being too overwhelmed by the enormous amount of things I want to make. Usually that's when it's time for a dance break. I take a lot of dance breaks in the studio. If I'm really stuck, I change my creative environment or take a walk. I also love cooking. The kitchen is my place of solace, distraction and creativity as well.
"My creative process is a combination of instinct, discovery and letting the things that inspire me percolate and come to the surface as I work. The act of creating jewelry in itself is often where new ideas are born. The spark can come from something as simple as folding a washer or cutting a circle.
I am drawn to geometric forms that are balanced and still retain a feeling of joy. I also pay attention to contrasts in color and the play between positive and negative space." – Thea Izzi
What materials do you love to use?
Metal is by far, my favorite material. I love the action of heating metal for various purposes. It's an alchemic thing, which may account for my love of cooking and making music. " Alchemy: A seemingly magical process of transformation, creation, or combination."
I have used bimetal in several of my collections, which is sterling silver and 22k gold fused together. It creates a luminous glow when formed on the interior of a three dimensional element and if its reflective enough can create the illusion of a faceted stone. I find it mesmerizing.
Do you have a dream collaborator?
I don't have a specific dream collaborator but I love the idea of collaborating with the intent to design jewelry that incorporates technology, ie "smart jewelry". I think there's a potential in that field for great design.
What are some of the challenges that you face as a maker?
My biggest challenge as a maker is time, illusory as it may be. I was blessed with many creative talents and there is never enough time to pursue all of them fully. Adding in parenting, time for creating jewelry is even more precious.
How do you use social media and blogging to promote your work?
Facebook was my first platform for social media but its getting more challenging to reach anybody that way. I've never loved Twitter but Pinterest and Instagram are the most effective. I think they work well when used all together. Using video and Youtube is my next hurdle. Blogging – no thanks. It takes me a long time to get out what I want to say in words. I'd much rather say it through images. Hopefully I will conquer my fears and do a live FB video soon. That seems like the best way to start.
What are you working on right now?
Presently I'm working to prepare for the JCK Tucson show. It will be my first time. I am building my wholesale business, which means creating more designs that can be repeated. I'm also creating more one of a kind designs using beautiful, precious stones like raw lapis, green onyx, opals and aquamarine. Set in 18k gold. Some are combined with the bimetal. Adding set stones to my work is a recent development since my jewelry has always been so metal focused. It's an exciting change, which you can find out more about from my Instagram page. 2017 is already turning out to be a huge year for the growth of Thea Izzi Jewelry Design. Stay tuned!

The first epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians, chapter 5, Vulgate and King James Version
1 Omnino auditur inter vos for nicatio, et talis fornicatio qualis nec inter gentes, ita ut uxorem patris aliquis habeat.
2 Et vos inflati estis et non magis luctum habuistis, ut tollatur de medio vestrum, qui hoc opus fecit?
3 Ego quidem absens corpore, praesens autem spiritu, iam iudicavi ut praesens eum, qui sic operatus est,
4 in nomine Domini nostri Iesu, congregatis vobis et meo spiritu cum virtute Domini nostri Iesu,
5 tradere huiusmodi Satanae in interitum carnis, ut spiritus salvus sit in die Domini.
6 Non bona gloriatio vestra. Nescitis quia modicum fermentum totam massam corrumpit?
7 Expurgate vetus fermentum, ut sitis nova consparsio, sicut estis azymi. Etenim Pascha nostrum immolatus est Christus!
8 Itaque festa celebremus, non in fermento veteri neque in fermento malitiae et nequitiae, sed in azymis sinceritatis et veritatis.
9 Scripsi vobis in epistula: Ne commisceamini fornicariis.
10 Non utique fornicariis huius mundi aut avaris aut rapacibus aut idolis servientibus, alioquin debueratis de hoc mundo exisse!
11 Nunc autem scripsi vobis non commisceri, si is, qui frater nominatur, est fornicator aut avarus aut idolis serviens aut maledicus aut ebriosus aut rapax; cum eiusmodi nec cibum sumere.
12 Quid enim mihi de his, qui foris sunt, iudicare? Nonne de his, qui intus sunt, vos iudicatis?
13 Nam eos, qui foris sunt, Deus iudicabit. Auferte malum ex vobis ipsis!
King James Version
1 It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.
2 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
3 For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed,
4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
5 To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:
8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
9 I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:
10 Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.
11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.
12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

What Exactly is a Wine Club?
If you're a wine enthusiast like many, you may find that shopping for the perfect wine on occassion is a fun and exciting task. However, many who enjoy wine and are perhaps not quite as educated in regards to the intricacies involved in selecting a fine wine may choose to utilize the service of a wine club.
A relatively newly developed subset of the wine culture, wine clubs have been created to allow the more casual enthusiast to enjoy fine wines on a regular basis. Most often times offering monthly or quarterly subscriptions, wine clubs deliver a selection of wines to keep your cellar continuously stocked with the newest and best available on the market.
Whether you're a fan of reds, whites, or enjoy a combination of both, there should be a package to accommodate your tastes. Themed wine clubs are also available, specializing in different grape varietals or wine regions. However, whether you're a fan of cabernets, merlots, or shiraz, you'll be able to find the club that fits your taste and drinking habits.
Though the concept is claimed to have been invented back in 1972 with the Wine of the Month Club, many other wine clubs have sprouted, especially since the popularity of the internet has simplified the process of connecting with a customer base.
The most popular of the wine clubs has always seemed to be rely on quarterly shipments; and, among the programs here are a few clubs which stand out.
- The California Wine Club
- Zagat Wine Club
- 4 Seasons Wine Club
- WSJ Wine Club
Whereas the California Wine Club offers two premium bottles per quarter at an $80 pricepoint, others like the Zagat Wine Club, 4 Seasons Wine Club, and WSJ Wine Club have a standard shipment of 12 bottles of wine per quarter at prices ranging in the $129-149 range.
Any of these wine clubs would be a fantastic choice for the occasional wine drinker or most dedicated wine enthusiast, as you'll always be able to enjoy the finest wines delivered directly to your door—all you'll have to do is pop the cork, sit back, and enjoy!

Sensitive skin, hyper-reactive, irritable or intolerant is not a type of skin as well as oily skin, combination skin or dry skin. Rather, it is a characteristic that can affect all skin.
If you are concerned, then it should be easy on your skin as possible and to adopt certain reflexes that promote the reduction, or even disappearance, inconvenience that causes cutaneous hyperreactivity.
How to recognize a sensitive skin?
Sensitive skin is not easy at first to distinguish sensitive skin because it has no detectable feature during a clinical examination. Skin sensitivity is above all a matter of sensitivity …! It is indeed the permanent sensation of discomfort, skin hot, burning, prickling, redness or pulls characteristic skin sensitivity without visible symptoms.
Moreover, one can think of hypersensitivity skin when the skin reacts to external factors that should not disturb. The reactive skin is indeed a skin whose tolerance is much lower than other address environmental or internal factors than conventional skins. Example: it is quite normal to feel a tugging sensation after a bath in a heavily chlorinated pool or itching after contact with detergents, it is not trivial to blush, to be irritated or having "bad skin" after applying the cream or even just water, having been thwarted or exposed to climatic variations.
The best is still to seek an accurate diagnosis his dermatologist may conduct a local skin test to determine the skin irritability threshold and / or ask for allergy testing.
How to cure her sensitive skin?
Factors causing skin reactions in sensitive skin are numerous: this includes the application of cosmetics, climatic variations, certain foods, stress and even water or simply rubbing of clothing. The skin barrier is impaired, it is no longer providing a protective role towards the environment and becomes more permeable to foreign substances: UV, pollution, strong emotions and menstrual cycle are then experienced as real attacks by the skin.
I adopt:
– The cleansing milk to rinse the spray thermal water on the face and micellar water without rinsing.
– Dermatological surgras breads and soap.
– A soothing treatment or special calming sensitive skin.
– The treatment of anti-stress supplements to limit its impact on my body.
– A hypoallergenic moisturizer that does not cause me any reaction after several applications. Once I found the right one, I keep changing and I do more.
– An anti-redness cream that will act at the same time on the warm feeling of my skin.
Some ideas
Avene Tolerance Extreme – milk cleaning without rinsing – soothes allergic and hypersensitive skin
Bioderma: Créaline Lightweight – soothing cream – sensitive skin intolerant
Roc Dermatologic: Calmance – repair treatment intolerance – reduces redness and irritation.
I'm giving up :
– The idea of the test bench every Saturday from all market cosmetic morning;
– Changes untimely climatic environment: one day in Sydney the next day in Montreal the day in a dry and overheated office and night garden party in the cold and wet garden …
– Too spicy food, tobacco, alcohol;
– Alcoholic lotions, essential oils, foaming products and aggressive or abrasive treatments like peels, scrubs, exfoliating scrubs or creams.
Good news, however, finally: if the immutable hereditary skin sensitivity hit you at birth, be aware that sensitive skin tend to harden and become more tolerant over the years, the horny layer thickening and becoming less permeable. "Sensitivity is on tap when menopause had come"

support todd akin's candidacy? political showdown. president obama and mitt romney hunker down for their high-stakes debate in denver. and bumpy ride. a 10-year-old philadelphia boy is arrested after swiping and then crashing a van. good morning, everyone, i'm lynn berry. those stories and more are straight ahead. this is "first look" on msnbc.
2:01 am
and we are going to begin this morning with air scare. suspicion is swirling around american airlines after two flights in three days were returned to new york's jfk airport. the reason? passenger seats came loose on both planes. the first incident occurred on a flight from miami to boston. >> during climb-out, rows, passenger seats row 12d, e and f came loose out of the floor. passengers are unable to sit in that seat. >> well, the federal aviation administration said seating in both planes had recently undergone maintenance. the airline has now grounded eight 757s for reinspection. to politics now where president obama and rival mitt romney will not be campaigning today, opting instead to prep for the first of their three debates tomorrow night in denver. republicans are hoping it will be a game changer for their
2:02 am
nominee. who right now trails the president in every battleground state. nbc's brian mooar joins us from washington with all the details. brian, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, lynn. for both campaigns, this first debate brings both challenge and opportunity. as denver gets ready for tomorrow night's first presidential debate, so are the candidates. >> it will be a conversation with the american people that will span almost an entire month. we'll get to describe our respective views. >> reporter: romney is hoping to pick up a few votes with an endorsement from football great john elway. president obama is taking the personal approach to nail down support. >> this is barack obama. >> reporter: and like romney, the president sees this debate as a chance to talk to america. >> it's a choice between two different paths for this country. it's a choice between two fundamentally different visions for our nation. >> reporter: the president has a lead in all nine of the key battleground states including ohio, which begins early balloting today.
2:03 am
>> romney's task is difficult because he has to redefine himself as well as redefining the election. >> reporter: an election only 35 days away but still far from over. and the first debate is on the domestic issues that are defining this election. lynn? >> all right, brian, thanks. elsewhere, the candidates for the u.s. senate in massachusetts, scott brown and elizabeth warren, debated for the second time last night. the two were combative as they staked out opposite positions on issues ranging from job creation to bringing home troops from afghanistan. nbc's david gregory of "meet the press" was the moderator, and they also clashed over brown's claim of partisan independence. >> if he is re-elected, that increases the odds that the republicans will control the senate and that he can block president obama's agenda. >> if you're going to comment on my record, i would at least have you refer to it -- >> can we -- >> excuse me, excuse me.
2:04 am
>> go ahead, senator. >> excuse me, i'm not a student in your classroom. please let me respond. thank you. >> recent polls before the debate showed elizabeth warren with a small lead over scott brown. and last night on "the rachel maddow show," congressman barney frank weighed in on the debate. he explained scott brown's stance and what he believes are inconsistencies in his campaign. >> here's a man who claims he's supportive of a woman's right to choose, who says he believes in legal equality for lgbt people, who believes women should get equal pay for equal work. and the first word out of his mouth on the supreme court justice he prefers is a ranting fervent opponent of all those causes. the other thing that struck me was that scott brown at least a half a dozen times was asked, i'll have an open mind on this. well, i think he is kind of crossing the line from independence into incoherence, and it's because he understands that if he were to say what he
2:05 am
really plans to vote, it would be unattractive to the voters. >> lean forward with "the rachel maddow show" weeknights at 9:00 eastern on msnbc, the place for politics. joyriding may land one philadelphia child in jail. police are preparing to charge the 10-year-old with auto theft. surveillance video there shows the young driver crashing the stolen van right into some parked cars. he did manage to escape but was stopped by a witness and held until police arrived. well, approximately 30 amtrak passengers suffered injuries when a big rig collided with a locomotive in california. the crash caused three cars to derail and pin the truck driver inside his vehicle. according to officials, the semi drove past the rail crossing right into the train. investigators could not determine why the driver did not stop. four men in mississippi

it inside the bag and you just take a spoon and shovel it out. >> i've never heard of it before. >> where have you been? >> obviously under a rock. >> in your weather cave. welcome. >> you've had it before? >> no, i've just seen it. >> you've just seen it. you didn't want a month-long sodium intake in one bite? good morning, everyone. as far as the weather goes, we have numerous areas of wet weather for the eastern seaboard anywhere from pennsylvania down through west virginia and virginia, the carolinas, down i-95 into florida, everyone n t needs the umbrella. it begins to spread northwards. this storm is bringing warm air with it, kind of humid air. overall just more or less scattered showers. anyone in the middle of the country to the west, it is mild. it is dry. and enjoy it while it lasts. we have some cold air heading your way towards the week's end into the upcoming weekend. first let me give you a little radar tour. up 81 through virginia, light rain now spreading through

"the new york times" reports that if president obama wins the states he's most likely to carry on election day, there is a chance of a 269-269 electoral college tie with mitt romney. in that case, the house would decide the election, which could go to romney. in michigan, cars were backed up almost half a mile to buy gasoline at $1.84 per gallon. that's the price in 2008 before president obama became president. karl rove's group, the americans for prosperity super pac, paid the station to run the cheap gas promotion as an anti-obama stunt. actor leonardo dicaprio and other celebrities are using their star power to encourage young people to vote. they've launched "vote 4 stuff," a campaign that advocates using social media to express which issues people want discussed in the presidential election.

SJU Media Services
[email protected]
As part of the Library, Media Services works closely with library circulation to offer media materials and equipment available for loan to CSB and SJU students, staff and faculty. Our checkout policies align with those of CSB/SJU Libraries' circulation, yet focus specifically on the media aspect of the CSB/SJU Libraries' circulation and loans.
Media Services provides equipment that is available for checkout through the library. A complete list of equipment available for loan is available on the Media Services Equipment Checkout web page. The patron is responsible for the equipment once it has been checked out, until returned. The standard loan time for most Media Services equipment is 1 day, however some equipment have a longer loan period. If you need a piece of equipment longer than the designated loan time, then you can either renew the item on a daily basis until finished or contact Media Services directly to see about a loan extension.
While initial loans are free of charge, all Media Services equipment are subject to overdue fees if not returned by the designated due date.
CSB/SJU Libraries has standardized guidelines for physical media checkout. The length of a loan period varies depending on if the patron is a faculty member, staff or a student.
DVDs, VHS tapes, CDs and sound recordings checked out by either faculty or staff have a 5 day loan period. When items are being used in class, arrangements may be made to keep items longer than the 5 day loan period.
DVDs and VHS tapes checked out by students have a 1 day loan period. CDs and sound recordings have a 3 day loan. They may be taken out of the library if they are not on reserve. If the item is on reserve, then the student can still use the media within the limits of library when available.
Media materials cannot be checked out to these individuals.
Media items can be renewed by returning the physical media or equipment to either the Clemens Circulation Desk, Sexton 200, or online through the Library's Borrowing Record. Media equipment can also be renewed from Media Services directly. For more information on how to renew an item online, see the "Renewals" section of Circulation Services.
Both physical media and equipment are subject to an overdue fees if not returned by the designated loan due date. Overdue items that are on reserve have a higher fee rate.

San Diego, CA
San Diego Travel Blog› entry 1 of 1 › view all entries
I stayed at a hotel the Ramada Inn, near the San Diego convention center, walking distance. My pharmacy meeting were held there, which happens to be in Gaslamp district. Gaslamp district was full of Jazz bars, modern restaurants, and clubs. I was attracted to a place that was called the Martini Bar, which didn't even serve martinis, it mostly had beers on tap so that sucked. I loved the creativity of the this restaraunt called the "Strip Club" and of course my mind without knowing its a restaraunt, is thinking a..what? Yes a STRIP CLUB. But no, it was a Steak house, decorated with provocative photos and painting of women. What irony! This place has been also talked about on the travel channel.
The Jazz bars and piano bars were great.
The zoo was open like 9-5pm and it took the entire time to see the entire park. I was so impressed! Especially if you particularly like one animal, its great to see that particular animal. I love giraffees!! And at lunch feeding time, I stood in line to feed the giraffees. It was great, we got the best pictures! I fed them little red biscuits, like 3 biscuits for $5.
While I was at the pharmacy meetings, my husband checked out Coronado Beach, and he said it was gorgeous. The west coast beaches and east coast beaches apparantly are quite different so its nice to see both. We walked around downtown, and ate at Ruth Chris Steakhouse. Not a steakhouse to dine at every night because it was pricey, but it was definitely great to try. It was right on the water, and beautiful at sunset. Also San Diego is very close to the Mexican border, so in that area they are known for their quality Tequilas as well. So try a little while you are there!
For the length of our trip we staying at Ramada Inn, a smaller restaraunt and bar was attached, which was nice bc it wasn't too expensive and was close.
I was actually surprised when I would ask around about a place to swing dance, not only did I have a hard time finding a place online, but no one there in Gaslamp downtown knew of a place to go swing dancing either. My swing dance crew here in SFL, say that swing dancing there is awesome. Maybe one day I will have another opportunity to check it out.

Imagine a society in which every voice has a say and everyone counts – young, old, women and men. This is the kind of society philosophers Henri Bergson and Karl Popper imagined when they developed the concept of an open society. Looking at societies in southern Africa, even the ones that are believed to have the slightest semblance of 'open societies', ensuring the participation and voice of all citizens is still a challenge. This is more so for the so-called marginalized social groups, especially women who are treated as perpetual minors. One wonders what spaces are there for young people, especially young women, in such polarized societies that make their voices count? This article will critically analyse the significance of giving space and voice to young women when participating in society generally and in the women's movement in particular as a prerequisite to achieving open society ideals. Young women matter in realising
In open societies, governments are responsive and tolerant and political mechanisms are transparent and flexible. In his book Open Society and its Enemies, Popper alludes to an 'open society' as one which ensures that political leaders can be overthrown without the need for bloodshed, as opposed to a 'closed society', in which a bloody revolution or coup d'état is needed to change the leadership. He further describes an open society as one "in which individuals are confronted with personal decisions and these are respected". To further invest in the promotion of open societies, George Soros founded the Open Society Institute in 1993, with the aim of shaping public policy and promoting democratic governance, human rights and, economic, legal, and social reform. This article will dwell on the last part of Popper's definition of the importance of the 'personal' as it argues for the promotion of young women's rights as a vital facet towards achieving an open society. This is so because as Chantal Mouffe claims 'the personal is political'. The fact that young women's voices are lacking in sociopolitical discourse and even in the women's movement has to be analysed in light of the broader structures that seek to shift the balance of power, turf and influence in any society.

A morning at Angkor Wat
The final morning of my guests' visit took in a sunrise (though the clouds hid the sun) over Angkor Wat, a temple-tour, a cooked breakfast alongside the moat surrounding the temple and then a blessing from the head monk at a pagoda nestled alongside The Bayon. They are packing ready for their flight as I type. There were quite a few people at Angkor Wat this morning, though not nearly as many as in the high season. After looking at where the sunrise would've been, from the two royal pools, we went inside the temple to get the low-down from Omnoth our guide as he walked us through the most important areas of Angkor Wat. The top level is still closed to tourists but the word is that it may re-open again at the end of this year, though numbers will be limited. Listening to Omnoth, on my first guided tour of Angkor Wat for over a decade, reminded me how important a knowledgeable guide is to ensure you get the full value from your visit to the temple. Its important to have someone bring it alive, and fill in all the small details, as well as giving the bigger picture stuff. And Omnoth is one of the very best at that. I bumped into Kim Rieng during my tour, he was guiding a couple of American tourists, and hope to catch up with him later this afternoon.

Defending Marriage: Twelve Arguments for Sanity is a rousing, compelling defense of traditional, natural marriage.
Here, Anthony Esolen, professor at Providence College and a prolific writer, uses moral, theological, and cultural arguments to defend this holy and ancient institution, bedrock of society - and to illuminate the threats it faces from modern revolutions in law, public policy, and sexual morality.
Inside, discover:
Traditional marriage's roots in age-old religious, cultural, and natural laws
Why gay marriage is a metaphysical impossibility
How acceptance and legal sanction of gay marriage threatens the family
How the state becomes a religion when it attempts to elevate gay marriage, and enshrine as a civil right all consensual sex
How divorce and sexual license have brought marriage to the brink
How today's culture has impoverished and emptied love of its true meaning
In Defending Marriage, Esolen expertly and succinctly identifies the cultural dangers of gay marriage and the Sexual Revolution which paved its way. He offers a stirring defense of true marriage, the family, culture, and love - and provides the compelling arguments that will return us to sanity, and out of our current morass.

Excellent and thorough discussion on the topic
Anthony Esolen presents a very coherent case in defense of traditional marriage. This is worth listening to again and again to make sure you have mastered the material. Mr. Esolen does this with a well-reasoned book that explores the logical conclusions that one must accept if one embraces the modern variations of marriage. He explains the unintended consequences of these variations, consequences that naturally flow from the policies being pursued. This requires deep thinking about the issues, and this is sorely needed in a society where too many people base their decisions on emotional appeals. This book helps the reader to consider the many aspects of marriage and its importance to children's rights and society.
- Terryn
Truth with reason.
This book gives flesh on the ever present argument of the sanctity of marriage. A Captivating performance by Kevin Spalding, this audio book gives sound defense every Catholic will need in their debate against a secular cynical world.

Mickelson mulling over move
World number two Phil Mickelson has yet to be lured to Europe by the lucrative Race to Dubai, but the three-time major winner is weighing up his future schedule options.
Despite the 10million dollars on offer for the season-ending Dubai World Championship next November for the top 60 players and the bonus of an additional 10million dollars (£5.75million) for the top-15 money earners, Mickelson would not confirm his future plans.
"I have not committed yet but it might be something I will look at next year; I am not ruling it out," said Mickelson. "I don't know the details, but I know that I am not quite ready to commit to it. I will know when I am ready to commit to the European Tour."
He added: "I not only want to play the minimum, but really be a part of the tour so I am not ready to commit, but I am not going to rule it out as I think that is where the game is growing.
"It's something I will look at for 2010, but if something happened down the line this year I could reconsider.
"There are other ways to join. There are a number of co-sanctioned events like the majors and World Golf Championships that could give me the opportunity."
Last year, in addition to the four majors and three World Golf Championships events, Mickelson played just the HSBC Champions and Scottish Open the week before the Open at Royal Birkdale on the European Tour schedule.
To be eligible for the Race to Dubai he would need to play a total of 12 events – with at least two in continental Europe.
"I understand and agree with the decision to raise the required number of events," added Mickelson. "They have made great strides with the Race to Dubai and I understand why they want to protect their asset.
"It does not affect my decision. If I was going to play on the European Tour I would expect to play at least five events in addition to the four majors and three World Golf Championships so I think that would be a fair commitment."

New music from the Cincinnati band Why? The new album is called Moh Lhean. The lead singer, Yoni Wolf, is one of my personal favorite songwriters of all time, and this new album sounds really good. Moh Lhean takes on a more sentimental tone overall. The one critic that I have is that the songs are pretty formulaic and have the same song structure for most of the album. Though that does not diminish the sound quality or the record. Why? creates each song with a sort of nostalgia or sense of reflection that makes Moh Lhean very enjoyable. My favorite track is the closer "The Barely Blur". Why? is on a national and international tour all the way through June this year, make sure you catch them at Treefort Music fest this year as well!

Music from Halifax, Nova Scotia. The band is called Walrus and their latest release is Goodbye Something. Walrus has a groovy psyche-pop noise to them. Catchy guitar riffs, along with some flying vocals and excellent drumming, Goodbye Something is a well put together EP. I really like the surf vibe to Walrus as well. They go on tour in February in Ontario for a couple weeks, and will be Treefort Music Fest in March. Check them out.
New Shack
Some awesome electronic music out of Provo, UT. They are called New Shack and their latest release is called Eingang. This duo out of Utah has a great sound of darkwave synth-pop. Most of their tracks have a slow burning beat with a lot of lush and flourished synthesizers over top. The vocals are also breathy and sensual that lure the listener into each song. New Shack has very well built songs that are very beautiful and groovy. My favorite track is "Dead Lips".
Second Wave of Treefort 2017
Happy 2017 everyone! To celebrate the new year there is a new wave of artists for Treefort 2K17. This announcement includes Touché Amoré, The Coathangers, Kishi Bashi, Lizzo, Kate Tempest, Dead Meadow, AJJ, Alvvays, Sonny & The Sunsets, and more! Check out the rest of the lineup here. We will be posting some lesser known bands that you'll want to catch this year.
Tickets are still available and will increase starting March 1st, so make sure you grab one here.
Treefort Music Fest is one of the fastest growing music festivals that are out there. Every year it seems to get better and better, and I personally cannot wait until the end of March to go party in Boise, ID. Stay tuned for more excellent bands that will be playing at the festival.
Elvis Depressedly
Here's another artist who is going to be at Treefort 2017. They go by Elvis Depressedly, and their latest release is called California Dreamin'. Elvis Depressedly has a very chill, lo-fi glam-pop sound to them. California Dreamin' is the type of EP that makes you want to curl up with a hot cup of booze and stare reflectively out of your window. The undertones of each track gives a slight dizzying sensation that creates a sense of something just out of reach. Elvis Depressedly has a great catalog of songs that are all around two minutes long, but I have to say my favorite is "Angel Cum Clean". Definitely excited to see these guys at Treefort next March.

Nancy Dacek's 15 Minutes Of Fame, Give or Take
Sunday, September 17, 2006
Overseeing elections these days comes with a special job hazard they don't tell you about in civics class. Ask Nancy Dacek.
Here she is at 72, pursuing a grandmotherly semi-retirement, an autumnal coda of civic service to cap a career of PTA activism and 12 years in politics as a lonely Republican tilting at the Democratic wind in Montgomery County. Being president of the elections board pays $8,500 a year and gives her time to spend with her eight grandchildren, garden in Darnestown, play more tennis than ever and walk nearly every day along the C&O Canal with her beagle Lenny.
Then comes Tuesday morning, her third Election Day as board president, and something goes horribly wrong. Suddenly voters are snarling, sneering. The botched election has brought shame to the county's image of competence. People are calling for Dacek's head . Politicians and editorial writers want her fired . Her former colleagues -- friends! -- on the County Council summon her to be grilled tomorrow morning at a public hearing.
Woe is the beleaguered elections chief -- an ever more frequent stock character in a bitter partisan nation. It seems you can't have an election anymore without an army of bulldog lawyers, imperious judges, inscrutable statisticians and cranky computer scientists massaging the outcome. The closer you look at elections -- the error rates, the overvotes, the computer crashes, the hanging chads -- the less faith you have. You feel like blaming somebody for Democracy Lost.
"We need to clean house here, to reassure people and to try to restore our reputation," says council member Howard Denis, a Republican who served with Dacek and is on the council committee that will question her and Election Director Margaret Jurgensen tomorrow. "I do think they should appear on Monday in sack cloths and ashes and fall on their swords."
County Executive Doug Duncan and council President George Leventhal, both Democrats, want both women fired. Leventhal uses the words "absolutely unacceptable and unconscionable." Is Nancy Dacek, then, Montgomery County's own Theresa LePore? LePore was the infamous elections chief responsible for the butterfly ballot in Palm Beach County, Fla., during that unforgettable, interminable presidential election year of 2000.
Dacek considers the question during a break last week in the tally of absentee ballots. She's standing in a corridor of elections board headquarters, a converted middle school in Rockville that retains the old metal lockers and bilious green wall tiles. She has clear, pale blue eyes, behind wireless glasses perched on the end of her nose, and a short, tousled haircut. Her coral-colored sweater came from Chico's, she reveals, when she learns even the Style section is interested in her now.
Madame Butterfly?
"Ohhh, I don't think so," she says with a wave of her hand. She sounds amused and fatigued. But not defensive, nor defiant. "It's fine. I'll cut out the articles myself and save them for my grandchildren."
She accommodates a photographer's request to stand outside by a sign for the elections board. It's as if she knows the role she is being assigned by the public and the media: She knows there's no use fighting the spotlight, so she might as well use it to show she has nothing to hide.
Since everybody's asking, No, definitely not, she does not think she should lose her job. A subordinate, operations manager Paul Valette, has claimed responsibility for the actions of unidentified members of his staff who failed to ensure that voter access cards were included in the packages sent to each polling place. Without the ATM-style cards, voters could not use the touch-screen voting machines. The cards eventually arrived, but nearly 12,000 voters had to fill out paper ballots; an uncounted number could not take the extra time and left without voting, effectively disenfranchised. The provisional ballots will be tallied starting tomorrow, right after the council hearing.
At this point, Dacek's position is this: She is eager to get to the bottom of the problem and fix it but refuses to let herself or her staff be scapegoated. "We're not looking at 'the buck stops here,' we're looking at putting out an outstanding election in November . . . The fact is we have another election" in less than eight weeks, she says. "To have all these experienced people let go without due process and at this time would leave the whole department in shambles."

NYC mayor Michael Bloomberg has wasted no time welcoming gay and lesbian couples from around the country to visit NYC to take advantage of NY state's new same-sex marriage law. And looking at the numbers, this could work out to be big business for state and local governments. According to a recent CNN Money article, New York City is already cooking up a new ad campaign to target LGBT couples:
The soon-to-be-launched ad campaign called ''NYC I Do'' will be put out by the city's tourism agency NYC & Company.
The campaign ''will create hundreds of millions of dollars'' for New York City, said an NYC & Company spokesperson.
Gayweddings.com's Kathryn Hamm told CNN Money that the sky's the limit when it comes to this wide open market. "It's hard to know how big the market will grow,'' she said. "We just hope that it is as big as some of the projections we have been hearing.''
Those projections include as much as $210 million in three years for city coffer's according to former Comptroller William Thompson and as much as $500 million statewide per a study by NY Senate Democrats.
The Advocate reported earlier this year that the nonprofit Williams Institute estimated the DC area could see $52.2 million in new revenue thanks to LGBT weddings, which were made legal in the District of Columbia in 2010. No one has official numbers to prove this but many DC area wedding vendors and entrepreneurs have told The Washington Post their numbers are up since the decision.
MyDeejay is proud to serve the gay and lesbian community in the Washington DC Metro area and we feel privileged to provide wedding entertainment for all couples, regardless of sexual orientation. Check out our LGBT weddings page for more information.

NW Man Fatally Shot While Walking Dog
Monday, September 19, 2005
A 34-year-old businessman who was walking a dog in the Mount Pleasant section of Northwest Washington was shot to death there late Saturday, D.C. police said.
Police identified him as Greg Shipe, and others said he was a Mount Pleasant resident who recently returned to the area from Nashville after receiving a master's degree in business administration. They said he had a job at a major advertising and public relations company.
The shooting occurred about 10:45 p.m. in the 1700 block of Irving Street, which neighbors described as relatively busy. No information was available about a possible motive or suspects.
"He was a friend of everyone's and was always full of fun and full of life," said a fellow member of the class of 2004 at Vanderbilt University's graduate business school, adding that Shipe was "a great guy."
D.C. Council member Jim Graham (D-Ward 1) called the killing a "horrible event" and said that it was the first fatal shooting in Mount Pleasant in almost two years.
A neighbor said she recalled hearing voices on Irving Street shortly before the shooting.
"Two male voices," she said, "just talking," not angry or hostile but louder than the tones of normal conversation.
There was a silence, she said. "Then a shot . . . a loud explosion." After that, silence again, she said. When she looked out a window, she saw nothing out of the ordinary.
"I didn't see anything or anybody," she said.
Sgt. Joe Gentile, a police spokesman, said the man was shot in the face and was dead when police arrived.
The neighbor said the man apparently fell on the sidewalk on the tree-lined north side of Irving, which is full of rowhouses.
Graham said that the man lived on Kenyon Street, one block north of Irving, and that the dog he was walking found its way back there after the shooting. The size and breed of the dog were not known.
