MOSCOW - Russia warned Israel and the West on Wednesday against any military strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities but suggested Tehran should be quicker to cooperate over inspections of its nuclear sites.
Speaking at his annual news conference, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov mixed words of caution over isolating Iran or attacking it with a gentle nudge to Tehran over the inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency.
"Attempts to prepare and implement strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities and on its infrastructure as a whole are a very, very dangerous idea. We hope these ideas will not come to fruition," Lavrov said.
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has hinted strongly at possible military action to stop Iran from developing an atomic bomb. In an election victory speech on Wednesday, he said preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons would be the main challenge for a new government.
Referring to talks in which the IAEA has been trying to negotiate an agreement for inspectors to gain access to sites, officials and documents, Lavrov said: "The Iranians have said they want this document to be agreed in full. We think our Iranian colleagues could do this a little bit faster."
Speaking of separate negotiations between Iran and six world powers that are trying to ensure it does not pursue a nuclear weapons program, Lavrov said he was confident a new round of talks would be held but said a venue had not yet been agreed.
Iran denies it is trying to develop a nuclear arsenal and says its nuclear program has only peaceful purposes.
Tehran has suggested Cairo as the venue for the next round of talks with P5+1, ISNA reported.

NORMAN — The inclination Oklahoma had played itself into a BCS bowl game with Saturday's victory over Oklahoma State proved to be right.
Sunday, the Sooners accepted a bid to face Alabama in the Allstate Sugar Bowl Jan. 2 in New Orleans.
"Two of the more storied programs, when you look at the championships and Heismans and all of that stuff. It's two great traditions for sure," OU coach Bob Stoops said Sunday night.
The 11th-ranked Sooners (10-2) and the third-ranked Crimson Tide (12-1) have combined for 16 national championships since 1950. The Sooners have seven. Alabama has won nine, including three of the previous four. They've also combined for 62 bowl victories — OU 27, Alabama 35 — during their histories.
However, this will be just the fifth meeting between the programs.
OU claimed a regular-season home-and-home series in 2001 and 2002. The last bowl meeting was the 1970 Astro-Bluebonnet Bowl, which ended in a 24-24 tie. Alabama victory came in the 1963 Orange Bowl with a 17-0 win.
"Yeah, that is odd," Stoops said when asked why OU and Alabama hadn't crossed paths more often over the years. "I guess it goes back to the old bowl matchups and where you used to go. That's probably why. Yeah, pretty unusual when you think of all the great teams each of them have had. In today's world they probably would have gotten together more often, with the BCS, the way things are now. If they had it back then they probably would have met more often."
The Sugar Bowl appearance will be Alabama's 14th. It's the most of any program in the game's 80-year history and it was a forgone conclusion after it lost to Auburn on Nov. 30. They finished No. 3 in the BCS standings and the BCS bowl bid was automatic.

Multcolib Research Picks - Music and the Mind
Annotation:John Powell, a scientist and musician, answers questions about harmony, timbre, keys, chords, loudness, musical composition, and many more in this intriguing and original guide to acoustics.
Annotation:How does a work of music stir the senses, creating feelings of joy, sadness, elation, or nostalgia? Though sentiment and emotion play a vital role in the composition, performance, and appreciation of music, rarely have these elements been fully observed. In this succinct and penetrating book, Charles Rosen draws upon more than a half century as a performer and critic to reveal how composers from Bach to Berg have used sound to represent and communicate emotion in mystifyingly beautiful ways.
Annotation:Drawing on his own life long passion for music and synthesizing the theories of Plato, Schopenhauer, Stravinsky, Nietzsche, Bartok, and others, distinguished author and psychologist Anthony Storr illuminates music's deep beauty and timeless truth and why and how music is one of the fundamental activities of mankind.
Annotation:From Bach fugues to Indonesian gamelan, from nursery rhymes to rock, music has cast its light into every corner of human culture. But why music excites such deep passions, and how we make sense of musical sound at all, are questions that have until recently remained unanswered.
Annotation:Kemp (a musician and psychologist, Univ. of Reading, UK) examines characteristics of personality and temperament that predispose individuals to pursue music as performers, conductors, composers, and educators.
Annotation:Music can move us to the heights or depths of emotion. It can persuade us to buy something, or remind us of our first date. It can lift us out of depression when nothing else can. It can get us dancing to its beat. But the power of music goes much, much further. Indeed, music occupies more areas of our brain than language does--humans are a musical species.
Annotation:"A pathbreaking exploration into how and why the human organism--and the ebb and flow of the cosmos--is moved by the undeniable effects of music"--Dust jacket
Annotation:Why are some disturbances of air molecules heard as 'noise' while others are perceived as music? What happens at the level of the sound wave, the ear, and the brain when we perform or listen to music? How do musical abilities emerge and develop, and become refined as one acquires musical expertise? And what gives music its deep emotional significance and its power to influence social behavior, across vastly different cultural contexts? These are some of the primary questions defining the field called 'the psychology of music' and driving the present volume.
Annotation:Whether you load your iPod with Bach or Bono, music has a significant role in your life--even if you never realized it. Why does music evoke such powerful moods? The answers are at last be- coming clear, thanks to revolutionary neuroscience and the emerging field of evolutionary psychology. Both a cutting-edge study and a tribute to the beauty of music itself, This Is Your Brain on Music unravels a host of mysteries that affect everything from pop culture to our understanding of human nature..
Annotation:The author of This Is Your Brain on Music showcases his theory of how the brain evolved to play and listen to music in six fundamental forms--for knowledge, friendship, religion, joy, comfort, and love. Preserving the emotional history of our lives and of our species, from its very beginning music was also allied to dance, as the structure of the brain confirms..

COCOA BEACH, Fla. -- Authorities said a tourist from Arizona drowned in rough surf off a central Florida beach.
Police said William J. Clifford, 66, of Tempe, got caught in a strong current while swimming with a friend Sunday afternoon off Cocoa Beach.
Rescuers from the city's fire department, police and beach rangers brought Clifford back to shore. Police said Clifford died at a hospital.
Earlier in the day, authorities said a surfer was bitten by a shark in the same area where Clifford drowned.
Brevard County Ocean Rescue Assistant Chief Eisen Witcher said a 52-year-old surfer was taken to a hospital with a shark bite on his foot.

You need to put that updated sprite.png up (with full transparency) while you're making design changes.
[–]ketralnis 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago
Huh? Those aren't in sprite.png
The second part of my comment is pretty unrelated -- I just meant that parts of sprite.png (in particular, the .submit and .create background images) aren't transparent in the current sprite.png.
I've been using this one in my subreddits which need transparency on all elements.
Also, the background-image on those two should be no-repeat.. when the .sidebox .subtitle text is more than two lines, the graphic repeats.
Ah. Well, we'd take a patch :)

Charming four season cottage located on Elk Rapids' quiet East side. Comfortable walk to downtown area/beaches (approximately 3/4 mile). Three bedrooms, 1-1/2 baths, sleeps 7. Private alcove off MBR. Well-appointed, bright, happy kitchen stocked with dishes, pots/pans, utensils, coffee maker, microwave, toaster, etc; no dishwasher. Central air, washer/dryer, cable/WIFI, fenced-in backyard with gas grill and fire pit, surrounded by trees; an island of serenity. Bed linens and towels provided.
When this darling cottage went up for sale across the street from us, we couldn't resist. It has become an extremely special part of us in the very short time we've owned it and in just one summer has given us glorious memories. We are over the moon with the new addition to our family brand house.
Swinging on the porch swing in the backyard of the cottage, john said to me, 'this is really like its own little island,' and it is. It is quiet, peaceful... Serene. The backyard abuts a park belonging to the church on the street behind, and we especially love the sound of the church bells, crisp and rich.
The screened porch in front is wonderful for watching the world go by (though we do live on a very quiet street). The house is precious ~ cozy and spacious, and the backyard is large enough for grilling, the fire pit, swinging, and playing several yard games, all at the same time! We provide croquet, ladder ball, and a bocce ball set, as well as several toys/games. The yard is surrounded by trees with several perennials, herbs, and your very own tomato plant.

15 HCAHPS Buzzwords Every Provider Should Know
The value-based purchasing sweepstakes race is on. It's hospital against hospital in a national contest to see which acute care teams can please their patients the most on the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey.
The prize is a chance to win back each facility's share of $850 million that will be deducted from Medicare's payments to 3,500 hospitals in FY 2013. That's 1% of each hospital's Diagnostic Related Group payment.
How patients answer 17 questions posed in Medicare's HCAHPS survey determines 30% of each hospital's score. The clock started ticking for patient stays on July 1, and will stop with discharges as of March 31, 2012.
How each hospital ranks will be publicly reported on HospitalCompare.gov, so not only will providers see how they ranked, but patients will see too.
Patient experience surveys can be tough, with responses varying according to types and geographic locations of hospitals, whether they are urban or rural, serve sicker or healthier patients, are overcrowded, and whether they have an expansive list of racial and ethnic populations which can make communication far more difficult.
Though the scorekeepers determining the winners and losers say they have adjusted for most variables, many providers remain concerned.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.

Hurrah! for the Yack Track concept. In both areas of specialty that I work in (ER and PACU), the noise level can ratchet up quickly and bursts of noise or loud conversations are very disturbing to patients under stress or in pain. I find (to my dismay) that I'm frequently the one shushing co-workers and the ironic part is that I'm hard of hearing! I'd LOVE to see a red light signaling 'too loud' in the center of the nursing station. Less yap, more tap people!

The minimum 300 surveys that will be submitted, I would like to know more about that.
Claude Albertario, RPSGT (7/12/2011 at 4:34 PM)
I am AMAZED that Dr.Bell (First reply) says: " I could most definitely do without the #3. "Yack Track" or "Yap Track." Sleep, the ONLY time the body regenerates itself and you think the patient can do without that? I am totally befuddled by your lack of sensitivity to this most spiritual and required aspect to human life. Really shows me the mountain we in the sleep field have to climb to get respect for the time supposedly devoted to sleep in the healthcare environment. Truly troubling to read that.

Burgundy 2012 - 'what a shocker'
Burgundy resident Gareth Skidmore wrote the following report on Monday. It rained heavily during the night and again this morning. The afternoon sky is still threatening and there is a spasmodically strong breeze blowing in the clouds from the west. The Côte de Beaune vignerons who brought in their worryingly low yields in the mild, hazy sunshine last week were lucky. Those hoping to finish off today are not so lucky. The Côte de Nuits growers who waited for this week are not lucky at all and facing more cloud and rain throughout. What a shocker, this growing season has been! A truly bizarre season all told… 25 ºC...

This is an important week! Tomorrow, we elect the President of the United States.
This is an important week for our nation, for our university and for many of you who will be exercising your right to vote in elections for the first time.
I hope you have taken the time to register and made use of early-voting opportunities here on campus to cast your ballot for federal, state and local officials. If you have not yet had the chance, I encourage you to vote tomorrow.
If we want a voice in the system, we must vote.
I clearly remember the 1976 election – the first election in which I was eligible to vote. It was an engaging moment to participate in the selection of a president, members of the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate, as well as state and local officials. It was my first foray into the political system of this great country, and I have not missed an election since.
In addition to ensuring your voice is heard, I also want to ask you to consider the time after the polls close. We will all watch the returns closely, as the presidential election in particular is likely to be a tight race. We will celebrate, or not, depending on the outcome and our personal preferences. It is my hope that as we in the Wolfpack community celebrate, or not, we all choose to do so in a manner befitting the process and our university.
I encourage you to watch the returns and to be participants in the exciting social experience surrounding the reports of vote counts and electoral-college calculations, and also, in true Wolfpack tradition, to be respectful of one another as the votes are counted and the winners are announced.
Tomorrow is important, so let's participate in a way that makes us all Wolfpack Proud!
Go Pack.

Totally unclear when this newly surfaced Lauryn Hill song, "Repercussions," is from. It certainly rings of "Ex-Factor" chimes and pace, but you have to imagine that if something this sweet was sitting in the vaults for so many years, someone would have rescued it before now. Regardless, we'll take it. Hope there's more coming—it's been a very long time.

I've been toying with a WP layout (with some help from sitepoint) at http://sandyschussel.com/ and have it down to one remaining issue: a stray opening <blockquote> in blog post previews on the home page. There's no blockquote in the CSS and as was suggested by someone here http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/show...=1#post4674453 maybe it's coming fromthe_excerpt();
Can anyone help me figure out how to locate and strip the blockquote from the home page post summary?
Thanks.I get by with a little help from my friends...

There's nothing to say about the record except that it's beautiful – and that it's one of Al's most solid albums all the way through (although it's always hard to find fault with any of his classics from the same time.) Classic Al Green songs with classic Willie Mitchell Memphis soul production – what else can you ask for? Includes "I've Never Found A Girl", "La La For You", "Let's Stay Together", "Old Time Lovin", "I've Never Found A Girl" and his beautiful reading of "How Can You Mend A Broken Heart", one of the best soul covers ever! © 1996-2014, Dusty Groove, Inc.

As the tragic reality of kids afflicted with cancer hit home in South Brunswick this week with the Monmouth Junction's is doing their part to help raise money for the fight.
The center will be participating in the 2012 Central Jersey CureSearch Walk on June 10 in Edison, with about 100 volunteers signed up for the event.
"As part of the Family Karate Leadership Team, we want to help build a better community by taking part in this walk on Sunday," said Mike Lagunovich, 16, an assistant instructor and student at South Brunswick High School. "A lot of us are thinking about Brandon Dominguez and we just want to do something that connects with the community. It's important for us as teenagers to try and do what we can to help."
The Leadership Team at the school has held numerous fundraisers in the past, including last year's Kick-a-Thon to raise money for the Olive Osmond Perpetual Hearing Fund, which supports new research and innovation to improve the quality of life for the hearing impaired.
"I've been a student at the school since I was 7-years-old," Lagunovich said. "It's a big part of my life. We just have some really great people there. Besides teaching self-defense, it builds our self-confidence by getting out there and doing stuff like this trying to help people. Karate is all about respect, so we try to spread awareness and help other people."
To donate and help the Karate Center raise money, visit curesearchwalk.org/centraljersey. To make a specific donation to their team click "Donate" then "to a Team," and then click on Family Karate Super Center. The school has donations from about 50 people, so far plus a lot more that haven't donated yet, Lagunovich said. Thus far they have raised $696, with a goal of $3,000.
The 2012 Central Jersey CureSearch Walk will be held on Sunday, June 10, at Roosevelt Park, 151 Parsonage Road in Edison. Registration begins at 9 a.m. with the opening ceremony and walk beginning at 10 a.m.
"This is going to be a really fun event and we want to invite the whole community to help out this wonderful organization," Lagunovich said.

Recycling Batteries Responsibly
The European Directive on Batteries and Accumulators aims to minimise the impact of batteries on the environment and encourage the recovery of the materials they contain. In the UK, regulations on the recycling of batteries and accumulators (rechargeable batteries) were Introduced in 2009. The Waste Batteries Regulations aim to significantly increase UK collection and recycling of used portable batteries from 3% in 2007 to 25% by 2012, rising to at least 45% in 2016.
The battery symbol on a product or on its packaging indicates that the product must not be disposed of with general household waste. Instead, it is the consumer's responsibility to dispose of their waste batteries at a designated collection point so that they can be recycled. The separate collection and recycling of batteries at the time of dispo sal will help to conserve natural resources and ensure that they are recycled in a manner that protects human health and the environment. A comprehensive list of battery recycling centres can be obtained from: www.recycle-more.co.uk
All Samsung products that are subject to the Batteries Directive are compliant with the UK battery and accumulator Requirements. In accordance with national law, SAMSUNG Electronics (UK) Ltd is a member of an approved batteries producer compliance scheme. This scheme collects, treats and disposes of batteries on Samsung's behalf.

1. Leftover sock yarn makes tiny, kewt things.
2. I forgot to mention something in my previous post on the Widdershins pattern. At one point, due to my brilliance I misunderstood the pattern and went searching for help on the interwebs. I came across a blog post describing the Generic Version of Widdershins. As the author states, Widdershins is written for about a size 8 foot. Then it goes on to describe how to customize your 'shins for your very own! (And the regular pattern is fine, as you can tell, I did figure out where I was messing up and got back on track.)
3. Hubs and I attended our first Prepared Childbirth class last night, and I'm noticing a trend. Is it just me, or do many men seem to have this preconceived notion that childbirth is an out of control, scary chaotic thing?
4. I began collecting my sock yarn minions into one locale for easy monitoring.
This picture in no way shows how rainy, gloomy, and wonderful the weather (and lighting) is right now.
5. I am enjoying the new series Pushing Daisies (Bionic Woman, not so much). Despite the mildly familiar plot (Tru Calling, k), the characters really shine and we are enjoying Chi McBride's performance as a less scary P.I. than the intimidating Principal Harper. Since Bones has been moved to Tuesdays, I got something new to watch on Wednesday.
6. I got no more shiny pictures to distract you with. As mentioned before, we're getting some much needed rain and it is very very cloudy outside.Yay!
That is all.

Cass Career Center invites the community to an Open House in celebration of Career and Technical Education Month.
The Open House will be from 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 7. During the open house, visitors will be able to see career and technical education in action as students learn and work in programs such as welding, construction technology, health sciences, drafting, automotive technology, information systems technology, fire science, marketing, and agriculture. Cass Career Center is located at 1600 E. Elm (behind Harrisonville High School).
Students and faculty at Cass Career Center will join others across the nation during the month of February to celebrate national Career and Technical Education Month. This year's theme is CTE: Careers Through Education. CTE Month provides CTE programs across the country an opportunity to demonstrate how CTE educates students to be college- and career- ready and prepares them for high-wage, high-demand career fields.
In addition to the Open House, special activities scheduled the week of Feb. 4-8 include special student competitions, guest speakers, field trips, and students presentations at community organizations.
"The activities planned over the next month will illustrate the rigor and relevance CTE courses offer our students," Gina Smith, director of the CCC, said. "By partnering with the business community, CTE programs are investing in students' lives with the latest technology and skills that will prepare them to become successful employees as well as future leaders."
CTE is a major part of the solution to myriad national economic and workforce problems, such as high school dropout rates, a weakened economy, global competitiveness and massive layoffs. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, nearly one-third of the fastest growing occupations will require an associate's degree or a postsecondary career and technical certificate.
Recent research published by the Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce shows that 4.7 million new workers will be needed with post-secondary certificates and credentials by 2018, but we will fall short of meeting that demand. At a time when job opportunity is so critical, CTE programs in every community are ensuring students are adequately equipped with the skills to successfully enter the workforce.

Roger Penske says his plans to buy Saturn from GM will produce something the Detroit automaker was never able to wring out of the brand -- a profit.
The former race car driver's Penske Automotive Group has entered a tentative deal with GM to buy up Saturn's 350 dealerships and says his distribution model for the brand should be profitable from day one.
He says he expects to offer all the dealers new franchise agreements and will retain all 13,000 employees for now. Both companies say initially, GM will continue to produce Saturn cars on a contract basis. But, Penske says he's in talks with manufacturers aroung the world about building the cars.
Penske says he expects the deal to close next quarter. Neither side has commented on the selling price.
Despite a cult-like following, the brand never made money for GM.

5 Reasons Why You Should Buy...: "Before There Was A Sean Combs Or Shawn Carter, There Was Only One Real Sean"
Thursday, Nov 1, 2012 2:15PM
[James Bond is getting ready to take over film worldwide with the latest addition to the British spy series. Hitting theaters next Friday (November 9), SOHH is giving 007 fans across the country the chance to see the new Bond flick, Skyfall, before anyone else, on November 7. We'll be giving away hundreds of tickets as we make our way across the country in anticipation of Bond's return. Today, we're moving to Chicago! So Midwest stay tuned because we're giving you five reasons to catch Skyfall, and plenty of chances to catch it for free.]
1. Connery. Sean Connery.
There can only be one, right? Well, it can be argued there have been plenty of post-Connery awesome James Bond characters, but much like anything spectacular, it all starts from an origin. Sean Connery is the one and only. Much like Kool G Rap did for rap legends like Nas, Notorious B.I.G. and Big Pun, Connery is the originator of one of the best movie franchises in Hollywood. Without Connery, you have no extensive run of smoothness which only he could bring back in the day. If you needed a reason to check out Skyfall, just remember you are paying respect to a run started by Sean. Before there was a Sean Combs or Shawn Carter, there was only one real Sean.
2. Roger Moore Is Octopussy
With a seven-film reign, Roger Moore is hard man to forget, especially when he stars in a film named Octopussy (1983). Tied with Sean Connery as the longest standing James Bond actor, Moore released an autobiography in 2008 titled, My Word Is My Bond, discussing his "relationship" to Bond. But aside from all historical facts as Roger Moore, let's focus on the fact that he played in a movie called Octopussy. James Bond doesn't get any better than that!
3. Timothy Dalton Has A License To Kill
Timothy Dalton sits with a number of film titles under his belt. But it was his butt-kicking spy tactics and 6'3" stature that made women go crazy when he hit the screen in 1987 and 1989 for the release of The Living Daylights and License to Kill, respectively. He made the prototype for Bonds to come.
4. Pierce Brosnan Is A G
Pierce Brosnan came a long way from his Mrs. Doubtfire/em> days. Taking on the 007 role in 1995 with Golden Eye Pierce continued the then 23-year legacy, adding four films to the secret agent saga. He embraced the life of a spy and took the series to a new level. Tomorrow Never Dies and The World Is Not Enough are classic Bond films, and Brosnan help put them on the map.
5. Daniel Craig Is The Illest.
A huge reason you should dig down in those pockets and throw up a few bucks to check out Skyfall is because it has one of the best action heroes over 40 as the main character. Let's be honest, the days of the cool, teenage or even twenty-something year-old butt-kicking main characters is kinda played out. We're living in times where maturity and age go hand in hand with bringing down some serious action. Look at Expendables or any Bruce Willis exploding to theaters these days. Daniel Craig brings a realistic secret agent with James Bond. Sure, he's closer to needing a retirement plan than most hipster protagonists today, but Craig proves good things do come with time. And oh yeah, he still gets the ladies too.
SOHH/Skyfall Chicago Screening Contest:
Wanna chance to see the movie before all your friends? Here's what Chicago SOHH readers gotta do:
1 - Follow @sohh and @sohhdotcom
2 - The first 50 people in the Chicago area to tweet #SOHH5 and #SkyfallCHI will win exclusive tickets to check out the new James Bond flick before it arrives in theaters.

Well while I do like the Audi it think the handling is piss poor.
All the joints, camber and alignment are in A1 condition... The car doesn't really fill me with confidence on the twisty bits though. I am running low to mid range tyres on 16's and do know better tyres and a lower profile will give it more grip.
The car is a pre facelift 99 car with a 6 speed manual box.
It has a stock set-up with genuine Audi suspension components used.
RS6 wheels are next on the list with Potenzas. What springs are best and how much lower should I be looking at with enthusiastic driving in mind?
Also I think Audi set up the car for boring understeer, is the S4 equipped with a thicker ARB?
I don't want any rear end action, just to neutralise the car more on bends...

Muse's fourth album is one of the year's most overblown records, mixing together huge, doomy soundscapes, snarling guitars and space-age sound effects with Matthew Bellamy's operatic wail and lyrics about stuff like death, injustice and "superstars sucked into the supermassive." This isn't so surprising coming from these sub-Radiohead gloomsters; what's surprising is that most of the time, Black Holes and Revelations actually works. There's room for melody on seductive songs like "Invincible," an epic with military drums and laser-beam guitar. Sleek, falsetto-laden lead single "Supermassive Black Hole" bangs like prime Depeche Mode, and "Starlight" sets sparkling patter and Coldplay-style swoons over an almost power-pop groove. A couple of sci-fi anthems "Knights of Cydonia" and "City of Delusion" are as ridiculous as their track names. But if you manage to suspend your disbelief a little, Black Holes and Revelations will push your pleasure buttons.

The California Lottery Mega-Millions game has a half billion-dollar jackpot for Friday night's draw. Half a billion dollars. $500 million. A whole lotta cash. Any way you phrase it, if you win the jackpot you better learn how to say "new tax bracket."
The big jackpot could mean instant financial security for some lucky person and a chance at some serious philanthropy. If a Dublin citizen wins the jackpot Friday, what would you like that person to do for Dublin?

Koma is known for creating unique silhouettes so in this collection he stayed true to this with his unusual take on classic shapes such as the ballerina tutu. We can see how he played with the pleating on the large voluminous skirts; made more impacting with the interesting block black and white detail. Interesting geometric patterns also showed on some of his dresses. I loved his finale pieces; the black leather mini dress with the leather skirt show a feminine edgy look and the metal detailed cut out mini. I cannot wait to see who will be wearing these cool garments.

Quick and Simple Tips for Baby Boomers on the Job Hunt
More seniors are abandoning retirement and re-entering the workforce.
In today's difficult economy, more and more seniors are abandoning retirement and re-entering the workforce. Unfortunately, that means they're competing with people half their age or younger for the same jobs in a sluggish economy. The good news is there's hope. With a little know-how and a few personal and professional updates, baby boomers can feel confident competing with younger generations in today's job market.
Update Your Technical Skills
Let's be honest: Professionals of the younger generation were practically born with cell phones in their hands. They grew up online and thus, most of them are just naturally tech-savvy.
When prospective employers are evaluating the difference between younger and older candidates, technology skills are high on the list. Older applicants will do themselves a favor by upgrading their capabilities. Simply taking a class, either online or in-person, can help make you more proficient quite quickly. Even if you're already fairly skilled, consider demonstrating your capabilities by obtaining certification. The MS Office specialist certification, for example, can be a compelling qualification.
Update Your Resume
Potential employers receive countless resumes when looking to fill a position. To make sure yours doesn't get tossed aside or overlooked, you may need to make some changes including some or all of the following:
Update Your Look
You may have entered your "Golden Years," but that doesn't mean you have to look the part. Update your image by coloring your hair, changing your hairstyle, or buying some new clothes. If you're a little overweight or out of shape, start eating healthier, drinking water, and doing some light walking or exercise. You'll look and feel more energized, healthier, and more confident, and you'll show potential employers that you can keep up with the best of them.
By following these suggestions you'll be well on your way to landing your dream post-retirement job and enjoying work … again.

The RAB Radio Show: August 5, 2011By
It's been an eventful week since we last broadcast.
- The trade deadline: not much happened, so not much is discussed.
- The six-man rotation: they pretty much have to keep it that way for now, don't they?
- Ivan Nova: Working all four pitches and succeeding.
- The Yankees offense: getting production from top to bottom, and even from the bench. They've beat up three of the five best pitching staffs in the AL in the past 10 days (and one of those five is their own).
- The Red Sox: better than the Yanks by some measures, not by others.

Mike…i'm completely with you on the Yanks/Sox series…I loathe them. The media makes way too big a deal of the games and the games are way too long. For years now I've felt that the Sox media and fans have made a much bigger deal about these series than the Yanks media and fans have.
Just be happy that you've got Foghorn Leghorn in your corner…

I write about career topics, helping people maximize their potential.
You're sitting in a job interview and everything has been going great. You're feeling really good about how you've responded to all the questions so far. Then, the hiring manager asks, "How much money do you currently make?" or "How much salary do you expect?" Your heart races and you begin to sweat. How should you answer?
As a recent mentee discovered, the salary question can be a difficult topic to discuss if you haven't already thought through potential responses. "James" (name changed) felt he had been close to being hired during several job interviews. Then the inevitable salary question came up and the hiring managers asked what James was making in his current position. He told the truth and, in both cases, the hiring managers responded that James' current salary was more than what the position would pay.
"What's the best way to respond to the question of how much are you making in your current position?" James asked me. "I let both hiring managers know I'm flexible with salary, but it seemed like once they heard what I'm currently making, they kind of switched off and didn't consider me as a viable candidate anymore."
For job seekers, I tend to think of the salary question in terms of a poker game with the goal being to get the hiring manager (or HR rep) to lay down their poker cards on the table first. That's because, as James found out, once you share a specific salary number, you might just have priced yourself too high (or too low) for the position.
Here are tips to prepare for the salary question/discussion during job interviews:
Tip #1: Arm yourself with salary information. Before you go to the job interview, spend adequate time conducting research to find out average salaries and salary ranges for similar jobs in your area, industry and geography. Websites for salary research include: salary.com, payscale.com, indeed.com, careeronestop.org, glassdoor.com, and jobsearchintelligence.com.
Tip #2: Deflect the salary question if it's asked early in the job interview. It will do you no good to tell the hiring manager how much you currently make or a desired salary range if you haven't at least made it to the end of the interview to see if you and the hiring manager believe you're a good fit. Let her/him know you'd like to better understand the job responsibilities and requirements and how well you meet those needs before discussing the salary topic.
Tip #3: Be prepared to provide a salary range. This can be handled in a few different ways. You could provide the salary range you've researched, as in, "Based on my research, similar positions in this geography and industry are currently paying between $x and $y. Is this also the range for which you've budgeted for this position?" Or, you could share the salary range you desire, such as, "Based on the job requirements we discussed and my knowledge, skills and experience, I would expect the salary range of the position to be between $x and $y."
Tip #4: Think about how much you'd like to make. This doesn't mean sharing an exact number, because it can place you above or below the budgeted salary for the position. Instead, provide a range you'd like to make. "Because I'm changing industries, I'm not expecting to exactly match my previous salary, but, I'd like my pay to be in the range of…"
Tip #5: Think through ways to side step the salary question. Remember, the goal is to get the hiring manager to tell you the budgeted salary range for the position before you share any salary information. Try to avoid giving out information by providing answers such as, "My research shows similar positions pay in the range of $x to $y. I'm sure you've budgeted a salary range based on competitive data for this industry. What is your budgeted range?" Or, "If I'm the candidate you'd prefer for the position, I'm sure we'll be able to reach agreement on the salary, as I'm willing to be flexible. What is the budgeted salary range?"
Tip #6: Discuss the salary range with the HR rep during the initial screening interview. You don't have to wait until you've made it to the interview round with the hiring manager. The initial telephone screen with HR is a good time to discuss the position's pay range to make sure your expectations are within the salary parameters. This also makes the salary discussion with the hiring manager (when it comes up) a lot less stressful.
As my mentee James found out, sometimes honesty isn't always the best policy. When it comes to discussing salary during job interviews, avoid sharing with the hiring manager what you currently make. Focus instead on getting them to share the salary range they're willing to pay. This isn't always easy and you'll need to be professional and respectful in your approach; however, it will help you walk away much closer to your desired salary.
How have you handled the salary question during interviews? Share your thoughts, ideas and what worked well in the "Comments" section below.

Contributor Lisa Quast speaks (writes) the truth. My comment adds another concept taught and learned over the past 22 years. a) If you experience this question in a phone screen interview conducted by a check-the-box company HR rep, you have virtually no wiggle room. Give the gross value of your highest salary that includes benefits. Google the formula. b) If you are asked the question for the first time in a face-to-face and you have spent 5 to 6 hours (highly recommended) preparing, the following should roll off your tongue in what my best boss called "Studied Informality".
"I know that if I am the right person for this job, you will treat me fairly, when it comes to money, won't you?" Then fall silent. If they keep pushing for an answer you reply with this question and mean it, "What does the job pay?" What you want or were paid before does not matter and the interviewer knows that. If you want to work for an employer whom you do not know, like, and trust, fine. Otherwise, no matter what, move on.
In my view we just remind here a basic tip for any $ negotiation in life:
you have to manage as much as possible your interviewer to be the first one putting a figure on the table. And of course, by not being too much pushy, by remaining professional, polite and trustworthy.
For the rest, it is evident that a salary benchmark is necessary for the preparation.
I have a second interview this week and haven't talked salary yet. The position I am applying for is with the same company, but on another contract. I know the interviewer knows my current salary since he told me on the first interview he looked up my info on the companies internal database. I also know this job is in the same pay grade i'm currently in, and internal candidates have access to what the pay grade is for any open positions. I have no choice but to tell them my currently salary, but when they ask what I want to be paid, what should I base that on? I know a couple of people already employed on that contract (same position i'm applying for) and they make at least 10k more then I do now. I'm at the lower end of that pay grade.
1/3 of this advice is bad. Sidestepping a direct question about salary indicates that the candidate does not understand the hiring process at the least. At the most, it indicates that the candidate can be manipulative. I have done my share of hiring and have changed jobs frequently as well. I have been on both sides. If a candidate is currently making 30% more than the job pays, I know I need to have a conversation with our recruiters in getting more appropriate candidates. As a job seeker, do I really want to work for 70% of what I currently make? Most of us would leave as soon as a better offer comes our way.
If the job pays 25% more than the candidate current makes, but I am impressed with their resume, my interview is about them convincing me they are worth the 25% increase.
Doing your homework on the position, the type of job and the manager is required. Linkedin is a great tool to do this. Honesty and openness on your part actually makes for a better fit. I've called candidates back when more highly paid positions were available and they were honest with me about what they made. Sidestepping and avoiding the question is a quick way for your resume to make the "round file."
I don't understand the intent of the salary question posed to the candidate in this day and age. With all the information available publicly about salaries what is the intent of asking "what are your salary expectations?" It seems a set up for disaster. If the candidate responds too high they are out of touch and too low there must be something wrong with them. So what, other than manipulation, does the interviewer hope to gain from this question? It would seem that if salary or pay scale information was available up front then companies and candidates could eliminate a great deal of wasted time. It's the elephant in the room – so why not deal with it in a straight-forward manner up front.
Further, the question "how much do you make now" seems irrelevant. The wage should be connected to the skills and experience of the position regardless of the applicant's current wage. I'd appreciate your insight on this perspective.
I disagree with deflecting or side-stepping salary questions. The goal isn't to get any and every offer. The goal is to get offers that a candidate will actually love and be engaged with. Salary questions just as effective for the candidate to qualify the opportunity. If desired comp and available comp are more than 15% apart, it's probably not a good fit for either side.
