joining the Honors community. The benefits of joining may be found throughout the
Honors web site. Explore the site for yourself, and if you like
what you see, we encourage you to apply.
Previously in College Honors

Not Previously in College Honors
Transfer students who wish to participate in the UT Honors College, who have not been enrolled in honors at their previous institutions, may need to retake courses previously completed to accrue honors credit. With this in mind, if you are a highly motivated student who has been admitted to The University of Toledo, and have a 3.5 or higher transfer GPA, we encourage you to apply to the UT Honors College. You will need to submit a UT Honors application for consideration.
- Transfer after one semester is usually seamless.
- Transfer after two semesters will typically require retaking English Composition at the honors level.
- Transfer after more than two semesters should be discussed individually with the honors advisors in the UT College to which you have been admitted.

Bound for Besançon & Barcelona
Thanks to those alumni who responded to our last Flashback photo. We were able to identify a few folks in the photo, but we're still missing most. If you see anyone you whom we haven't identified, please let us know at email@example.com.
1. Stella Polchowski Solliday '67
2. Loretta Messina Potash '68
3. Carol Siegel Clegg '71
4. Barbara Lantski Edwards '69 (misidentified in the print Knox Magazine as Patty Curtis Pfitsch '70)
5. Margaret Binnion Hart '68
6. Chris Bergstrom '67
7. Professor Elna Jeffries
8. John Welch '67
9. Professor Sherman Brown
10. Jeremy Gladstone '69
11. Alan Fox '68
From Stella Polchowski Solliday '67: "What a jolt to the memory to see the photo of our Besançon departure. I didn't recognize myself at first but quickly realized the familiar navy blue suit belonged to me and not the flight attendant. The photo was taken at O'Hare Airport on our way to New York to transfer to that wonderful prop jet of Icelandic Airlines and to be joined by more participants from the East Coast. We were served cognac and apples on the plane. We also had to stop for a few hours in Iceland for refueling and mechanical adjustments. It was my first plane ride, and I did not sleep a wink. Thanks for the memories."
From Barry Diamond '68: I'm pretty sure -- actually, almost positive -- that the tall, blond girl to the left of No. 10 is Jane Wall '68, from LaJolla, California. Jane was a French major and went to Besancon in our junior year, I believe. The reason I'm so sure is that I dated Jane the year before she left for France, and were pinned. That photo really brought back some lovely, but bittersweet memories for me. I was quite sad that she was gone the entire year. The last I heard (and it was many years ago) Jane was living in Chicago.
From Diane Burwig Beardsley '68: I recognize Jacquelyn Piraino '68 standing third from the left in the front row. I believe that is Jane Wall '68 standing in the back next to #10.
From Jeremy Gladstone '69: The person on the right of Peggy Binnion Hart '68 is Rosie Miceli White '69. Behind Professor Sherman Brown are two students from either Coe or Cornell. Their names, I believe, are Cindy Rohrschach and John. The quality of the photo and my failing eyesight and memory make it difficult for me to be of much more use than that. What more can I say? Perhaps that I wouldn't be where I am (Besancon) had I not gone on that trip.
From Barb Lantiski Edwards '69: I would like to submit a correction to the identification of the "Bound for Besancon and Barcelona" pix in your latest Knox Magazine. The picture identifies #4 as Patty Curtis Pfitsch -- this is incorrect because the person in the picture is me. I am talking about the person fourth from the left in the front row. Also, I can identify two other people. The person third from the left (between 2 and 4) is Jacqueline Piraino '68 and the person sixth from the left is Rosie Miceli White '69. It was quite a shock to see myself wrongly identified -- otherwise I really enjoyed seeing the picture. I remember a number of others, but cannot remember full names. Thank you for making the correction.
From Jacqueline Piraino '68: I am standing between Lorrie Messina Potash '68 and Barbara Lantski Edwards '69. Rosie Miceli White '69 is next to Peggy Binnion Hart '68. Jane Wall '68 is just to the right of Jeremy Gladstone '69. Cosette Daane Freeman '69 and Carol Seabright Christensen '68 (now deceased) are in the back row to the right of Professor Jeffries and behind Chris Bergstrom '67. Number 3 can't be from the class of '71 as they were not yet in school when we left in the fall of '67. Class of '70 had entered that fall. It is more likely Sue Barry Flandreau '68.
From Ted Fagerburg '71 (and Besancon '69-'70): I don't think you are correct in identifying Carol Siegel Clegg in the photo. Carol was in our group in 1969-1970, so would not have been in the group shown. Additional evidence of this is the years of graduation of the students. Most are noted at '67, '68, and '69, whereas Carol graduated in 1971. One of the people in the pic might be Mary Alice Schlenker Serafini '69, but I'm not sure about that.

---- — Several Peabody and St. John's Prep baseball players helped power the AAU Boston Junior Rams 15U to the Diamond Division New England championship this past weekend at Northern Essex Community College in Haverhill.
The Rams were the No. 1 seed, and defeated the Worcester Warriors, 6-3 in the winner-take-all championship game. The Rams finished the season with a stellar 15-2 record. The program, based in North Reading, beat Show Baseball in the opening round (11-1) behind a complete game performance by Nolan Webb, a St. John's Prep player from Rockport. Peabody High's Bobby Tramondozzi went five innings in a 12-2 victory over the Warriors in the first meeting before the Warriors bounced back to hand the Rams their only loss.
In the championship game Tramondozzi and Nick Musto, who is originally from Everett and now lives in New Hampshire, combined for the win.
"I'm very proud of my team," said manager Jeff Mejia, who is from North Reading and runs the Rams program. He is also the head baseball coach at Northern Essex Community College. "A lot of these guys have been with me since they were 11-years old.
"It's very gratifying to see this group of kids win because they all work very hard to succeed. They all get along so well, and all have similar personalities. It's a polite bunch, and they are very serious about getting the job done. That makes it easier for me and a lot of fun to coach them."
Webb, Tramondozzi, Bobby Sullivan (Peabody High), and Musto do the bulk of the pitching all season. Pat Jordan, who is from Reading and plays for St. John's Prep, was behind the plate for most games. Defensively Ben Irvine of Peabody High was the versatile star, playing a catcher, outfielder, and second baseman.
Sullivan wielded a hot bat, going 7-9 with three doubles in the tournament. Jeffrey Mejia was right behind with six hits in nine trips to the plate. Mejia attended St. Mary's in Danvers and will be a freshman at North Reading High in September. Chris Hopkins, who plays for Malden Catholic, was 5-10.
Justin Kerhulas, who is from North Reading and plays for the Eagles, and Jerry Lluberes (Lawrence) both had multi-hit games. Jake Spada, who is from Middleton and plays for St. John's, also contributed to the team's success. The Rams played solid defense, making only two errors in the four game series.
"We're going to Long Island to play in the Blue Chip Classic this weekend," said Mejia. "After that this group will come back as college prospects next year at the U-16 level. It's a very talented bunch of players, who have bright futures."

Over the past few weeks, I've done several ride-alongs with St. Louis area police officers who patrol our streets. My goal is to reach out to our citizens and our law enforcement officers to find the best way to combat gang activity in our neighborhoods. So what have I learned? Gang activity in the St. Louis region is worse than I thought. Unlike Chicago, New York or even Los Angeles, St. Louis-style gangs are mostly based on neighborhoods, and this reality presents unique challenges.
In a place like California, a Crip from Los Angeles is treated no differently than a Crip from San Francisco. Once a Crip, always a Crip, and you are respected by fellow Crips no matter where you go. You are a part of one family. In St. Louis, gangs are linked to particular neighborhoods with names like TAG, 5600 Acme, Dead Ends, 5900 Good (short for Goodfellow), and 10/20. These are the names and tags you see spray painted on the walls of businesses, our city streets and inside abandoned homes and garages.
Guns are easily accessible to gang members; they are handed out like candy at a parade. Everyone has guns and they are even displayed on Facebook, a site where gang signs, money and drugs are openly glamorized. Each area high school has "sets" of gangs that work in collaboration to claim their territory. This presents a problem for rival high school teams, especially at home games, where dozens of rival gangs show up to cheer and heckle. The gang members chant in the stands just like doting parents watching to see if their child makes the free-throw or touchdown. And of course, these young gang members attreact girls who mistakenly think these gang members are cool. It's hard to look at a Facebook page without seeing the loyal girlfriend posted in a picture on a nice summer day at a party in the park for an entire gang family.
Missouri's weak laws regarding convictions for burglaries, car thefts, shootings, robberies, and illegal gun ownership are not helping. These young kids develop long rap sheets as they cycle in and out of jail or prison. Most don't survive their teens years. For example, if a gang member wanted to get a sandwich in another gang's territory, he would probably get shot or killed. Gangs claim specific territories, but then the members are ultimately confined by those borders. And if a gang wants to increase its territory, eventaully there will be a battle between rival gangs, resulting in injury and death. The alternative, to give up the gang and the "protection" of his fellow gang-bangers, is often difficult or even impossible, unless the gang member moves someplace entirely different.
To address this specific occurance, I have filed a bill (SB124) that will prevent the possession, negligent storage, and failure to notify schools of firearm ownership. The legislation intends to encourage parents and legal guardians to become informed on the possession and use of weapons by their children. Those who have a child under the age of 18 would potentially be held responsible for crimes committed if they are aware of the possession of firearms by their hcildren and if they fail to stop the possession or report it to law enforcement, a violation of the law.
We discussed this and other important issues at the forum on school violence - Gangs, Guns & Schools. There were guest speakers, a presentation and public discussion. The event was held February 18, 2013 on UMSL campus.

On October 15, 2012, I hopped a plane to Eretz Yisrael and made aliyah! In very late November/early December, I was matched the illustriously magnificent Mr. T. We had our first date on the first night of Chanukah, got engaged 10 days later, and were married on February 20, 2013 in a very small, amazing ceremony with our closest friends.
I now live in Neve Daniel, Israel, and am prepared to start a big ole' brood with Mr. T.
The purpose of this blog is to share my story, my struggles, my ups and my downs, and to connect with others about anything and everything Jewish and social media. Write me, talk to me, comment, and be well!
I visited Israel every year from 2008-2011 and made aliyah in 2012.
I've lived in two countries, 13 cities, and had 20 addresses.
I was once a Slam Poet.
I legally changed my name from Amanda Jo Edwards to Chaviva Jo Galatz to Chaviva Jo Gordon-Bennett.
I love Indian food, BBQ, and I'll do just about anything for coffee.
Mmm ... coffee.

Danny Davis Says Hispanic Can't Win Mayor's Race; Gery Chico Responds
After today, it'll be all mayoral politics all the time. Why wait? I spoke yesterday to Democratic Congressman Danny Davis and lawyer Gery Chico, both of whom have eyes on the Fifth Floor of City Hall—and both of whom are warily circling each other. Last week, Davis said to community newspaper AustinTalks that neither Hispanic mayoral hopeful, Chico nor City Clerk Miguel del Valle, can win. Davis went so far as to compare Del Valle and Chico to serial losing candidate William "Dock" Walls…

After today, it'll be all mayoral politics all the time. Why wait?
I spoke yesterday to Democratic Congressman Danny Davis and lawyer Gery Chico, both of whom have eyes on the Fifth Floor of City Hall—and both of whom are warily circling each other.
Last week, Davis said to community newspaper AustinTalks that neither Hispanic mayoral hopeful, Chico nor City Clerk Miguel del Valle, can win. Davis went so far as to compare Del Valle and Chico to serial losing candidate William "Dock" Walls.
Chico told me on Monday that he is "surprised and disappointed" by Davis's comment. Asked about his relationship to Davis, Chico replied, "I know him," and left it at that.
In talking to me yesterday, Davis had sweeter things to say about Chico—"a very intelligent, astute, engaged, involved professional" who knows public service and politics "as well as anybody around." Still, Davis said, "I think [Chico] will have a difficult time winning the election."
Davis, 69, an African-American, has represented the 7th District since 1997; before that, he was a Cook County commissioner and a city alderman. For years he has seemed to want to shed his job as congressman, but he has never quite found the right new gig.
Chico, 54—who has worked as chief of staff for Rich Daley, as well as president of Chicago Public Schools—is half Mexican (his mother was Lithuanian and Greek). Most recently the chairman of the City Colleges board, Chico strongly identifies with his Hispanic roots while promoting himself as a candidate for the city.
Still, Davis told me Chico simply doesn't have a wide enough base. The congressman might have a point: Hispanics make up one quarter of Chicago's population, but because the demographic group is young and because some of its members are not American citizens, it totals just 15 percent of the city's registered voters.
Chico attributes Davis's comment to the congressman's bitterness at not being selected by the Coalition for Mayor—a group of black politicians, pastors, lawyers, and other leaders—that has been trying to select a consensus candidate. On Friday night, the Coalition seemed to settle on former U.S. Senator Carol Moseley Braun and Cook County Board of Review Commissioner Larry Rodgers.
Not so fast, says Davis, who still hopes to be endorsed. He told me that "some people wanted to have another interview with myself and Reverend [James] Meeks, and I understand that that interview is supposed to be taking place next Friday night [November 5th]."
Davis says he hasn't decided whether to run yet, but he hopes he'll end up being the coalition pick. He added that he won't run if he's not endorsed, and that a black candidate lacking the coalition support "wouldn't have much of a chance—and that, really, is all I was saying about Miguel and Gery. Any of us would have a difficult time unless we've got the coalition-based support."
Chico told me his supporters are "raising millions." While he declined to name any of his financial backers, he said, "most of the money is local—people from all over the city and metropolitan area."
"Local" might be a dig at Rahm Emanuel, who will be spending Thursday in Beverly Hills collecting contributions from Hollywood moguls.
Asked about calculations that Lisa Madigan will jump in the race if Pat Quinn wins today (and likely forecloses a Madigan run for governor in 2014), Chico says, "I don't care one way or the other. I take the mayoral election a lot more seriously than hedging the conditions of other people. I think this is about personal commitment, not about political ambition or calculation."
On the subject of Rahm, Davis mentions their "very good" pre-recess meeting in Washington before Rahm left his White House spot. Asked if he and Emanuel have a close relationship, Davis says, "We're not running buddies, but we respect each other."
The congressman, who will sail to re-election today, says he'll make his decision on running "probably" by next week.

Carol, glad to see you are dedicating some writing space to this. As a Chico supporter (vs being "Star" struck for Emanuel), I think he is ethical, practical, open minded (gays, straights, black, white, jewish, christian), a neighborhood guy, and high energy. I think he is what is needed now. Someone who is not looking for a stepping stone (Emanuel) or an interim position or a way to keep things the same (Davis) but instead may just be able to work the city thru the budget woes without destroying it's world class status.
I don't understand why the News Media thinks Rahm Emanual is some kind of second coming. Look at what the voters said and did to the Obama Agenda last night. Rahm was a very important spoke in that wheel. If what happen yesterday is any kind of mandate on Rahm Emanuels' leadership ability, it is rather apparent that he is lacking something there. Secondly every expert says he could not survive a challenge to the residency requirement, to be involved in the race in the first place. But the media seems not to remember that for some reason. If he thinks he will able to bully the City Counsel, I got some news for him, the Aldermen in the City of Chicago are a lot of things good, bad and indifferent, but they are not lacking in the ability to generate a lot of testosterone. Which tells me a lot of time and money will be spent when there is none in the budget in the courts and elsewhere just to prove whose job it is

But ... maybe now that this singles set has come out, there's a chance of more VU material coming out officially? I think I read that Lou wasn't into having any more live stuff come out.

Hmmm, so I'm listening to this "Retinal Circus" VU show -- and I'm pretty sure some of these takes are the same as appear on Live 1969. Haven't a/b'd them or anything. It's an uncut tape of the show, though, which hasn't circulate as far as I know ... I think that those songs were thought to be from the Matrix, wonder what the deal is! MYSTERY. Sounds great, anyway.

yeh, the wh/wh posted above is the same as the version on the live 69 album
― zappi, Friday, 16 October 2009 21:21 (4 years ago) Permalink
er wl/wh
Yeah, same w/ "heroin", "what goes on", "new age" so far. it's funny to hear these songs w/ audience applause -- on 1969 they cut off almost immediately, sort of giving the impression that the VU was playing to barely anyone. But here they've got a totally enthusiastic crowd. And why not, considering the godlike awesomeness of this "What Goes On."
― tylerw, Friday, 16 October 2009 21:26 (4 years ago) Permalink
so I'm fairly certain that these are ALL tracks from Live 1969, albeit in unedited form ... Maybe "Some Kinda Love" is different? Not sure.

Yeha, often when Unterberger inserts an opinion into his Velvets book, I find myself disagreeing with him. But as a reference, and as a history of the band, I think it's unparalleled. Also, tons of great photos/posters/ephemera, stuff I'd never seen before. And I appreciate that he has in fact listened to the bootlegs, which a lot of writers before him don't seem to have done. In general he doesn't seem too down with the experimental side of the group, even though he does give plenty of space to Cale's pre-VU work, as well as Angus MacLise, which is nice.

OK, so I'm familiar with the differences between the original "closet mix" of the 3rd LP and the Valentin (sp?) mix that was put out in the 80's reissue series. I know that "Some Kinda Love" is a different take altogether on the Valentin one. My trainspotter question is: which mix does the recent 4 Men With Beards reissue have? "Cause I already have an original closet one and am kicking myself for not picking the alternate mix up a few years ago when it was cheap.

I went to Kugelberg's apt once to talk about some post-punk/DIY stuff, and in this one room where he had his record collection, or small portions of it, he had all these cabinets with 12" sized panels, and in each panel was a copy of the first Velvet Underground record. Perhaps different states of peeling, different pressings, different photo states on the back, I don't remember, it was pretty impressive though.

i thought these would've come out domestically by now, but i scored Japanese versions a couple/few years ago of wl/wh, s/t, 1969 live, and V.U. the only one that's not a big improvement is '69 live. both white light, and the velvet underground really sound noticeably "better"(IMO) than the mid-1990's releases. and v.u. sounds greatly improved over its original cd release

from lou's facebook page:
We thought it'd be cool to share a photograph of one of the more "mythical" artifacts of Lou and the VU.
Lou mentioned this in an interview a while back (Q Magazine in 1996, I think), that he'd recently unearthed a demo he had mailed to himself in 1965, the reason for which is known as "the poor man's copyright."
In classic Lou style, he had this to say about the discovery:"I'm not going to listen it. I don't want to hear these things any more."
Well, here's what it looks like. And no, we haven't opened it.

would be interesting if it was different stuff than the demo released on Peel Slowly & See
as for the chelsea girls sdtk, i think this is at least part of it. sounds pretty great, would be curious to know if the bootleg is better sound quality (which is dire)

The Minnesota State Fair starts next week, and it's kind of a big deal around here.
Last year my favorite booth was from Pro Choice Resources. Their staff was fantastic and very respectful of people that disagreed with their programs.
Plus they had some funny shirts, like this one:
There are 3 things I absolutely love about our state fair:
The Tradition
We go every year. We visit the same booths, we eat our same favorite foods, and we always have a great time. Sure, there's always new stuff to check out and new foods to try, but we still make our regular rounds. And we ALWAYS take home at least two buckets of Sweet Martha's Cookies.
The Food
Speaking of the food, omg, our fair has the BEST food. The two big things are deep-fried stuff and stuff on a stick. There are deep-fried candy bars on a stick, deep-fried alligator on a stick, and even ostrich on a stick. One year when I was in high school, our school had a booth and we gave out poetry on a stick. Fun times.
I was even inspired to do my own crazy deep-fried experiment at home: Deep Fried Kool-Aid. Turns out it's super dangerous when Kool-aid explodes in the deep fryer, just in case you were wondering.
The Fun
A few years ago, a friend forwarded me State Fair Bingo Cards. This isn't your normal casino bingo or bingo online. It's so much better than that.
I'll admit, I've never seen a sheep in spandex, but I have see the rest of them. Plus, there are tons of other bingo cards you can download and print off so you can play with a group. I remember one year we went with a group of friends and raced to see who could get Bingo first. The camel toe was the worst – some things just don't need to be seen.
Are You Going To The State Fair This Year?

Somehow while browsing recipes from various websites, I stumbled upon Kalyn's Kitchen, a food blog run by a woman who seems to be an expert at creating delicious, home-cooked meals that also keep good health at the forefront.
When I came across her recipe for Chicken Lasagna, I made some minor changes to add a little more flavor and the result was incredibly yummy. Try it out and enjoy!
What you need:
- 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, trimmed well then cooked in chicken stock or water
- 1 box Whole Grain lasagna
- 2 cans 98 percent fat free cream of chicken soup
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth, simmered to reduce to 1 cup
- 2 cups fat free sour cream
- 2 tsp. garlic powder
- 1 tsp. onion powder
- 1 tsp. poultry seasoning
- 4 cups fat free cheddar cheese
- 2 packages of frozen spinach, thawed and drained
What you do:
Preheat oven to 375 F. Boil the chicken until it's done, then cut it all up into small pieces.
Combine cream of chicken soup, chicken stock, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, spinach and poultry seasoning. Stir in cooked chicken.
Spray 13 X 9 glass casserole dish with nonstick spray. Make a layer of dry lasagna noodles. Spread half of sauce mixture over the noodles. Sprinkle half of cheese over sauce mixture. Add another layer of dry noodles, then another layer of sauce and cheese.
Spray a large sheet of aluminum foil with nonstick spray, then tightly cover casserole dish with sprayed side down. Bake one hour without removing foil.
Remove foil and bake 30-40 minutes more (until noodles feel soft when you stick a fork in.) Top should be slightly browned and lasagna bubbly when it's done.
Remove from oven and let cool 10-15 minutes before cutting.

Voters to decide on jail for McCulloch County
New facility would require $6.8M in bonds
SAN ANGELO, Texas - McCulloch County voters will go to the polls in November to decide whether they want a new jail. The Commissioners Court voted Monday to call for a bond election.
The proposition would authorize the issuance of up to $6.8 million in bonds to pay for the construction and equipping of a jail and the acquisition of a site.
The proposed facility would be named the McCulloch County Law Enforcement Center and Jail.
The current jail, built in 1974, has a capacity of 22 beds. As of Wednesday, there were 20 prisoners at the facility and 15 prisoners housed outside the county. The new jail would have more than twice the current capacity.
The cost of housing prisoners out of the county is one of the reasons commissioners looked at building a new jail, said County Judge Danny Neal.
"We spend a lot of money each year housing out of county," he said. "Deputies have to go and retrieve prisoners, and it puts a stress on transportation costs and time management. There's also the liability when you have prisoners out on the road, and there are safety concerns for the deputies."
There are additional medical costs when a prisoner in another county's jail has to go to a physician or hospital, and expenses for court-appointed attorneys increase when they have to travel to consult with their defendants.
"It's just a growing expense," Neal said.
The county sends prisoners to Comanche County, 75 miles northeast of Brady, a 150-mile round trip, Neal said. They also are held in Brownwood in Brown County, 50 miles away, and Ballinger in Runnels County, which is 64 miles northwest.
The proposed jail would hold 48 prisoners and have between 20,000 to 25,000 square feet. It also could be expanded.
"The way the plans were drawn for it, it was designed to be expandable if the need occurs," Neal said. "With the floor plan, we could add more beds to it."
The court has a parcel of land under contract and will purchase the property if the bond passes. The 5.56-acre site is north of downtown Brady at the intersection of Highway 377 and County Road 301, outside the city limits.
A jail-needs analysis noted that the jail contains one detoxification cell and no holding cells, making it difficult to process inmates.
The county operates the facility with six variances granted by the Texas Commission on Jail Standards and without them, the jail could not remain in operation, the report noted.
One of the variances is for insufficient square footage in some of the combination day-rooms and cells. The jail also only has one exit door, and remote control of doors is not provided.
A jail review committee, formed in 2010, found that the jail is showing signs of age, and there is not enough room to expand outward. Adding a second floor also would not be financially plausible, the committee noted.

Employment is Broken...if it had a Name it would be Sybil!
Date:April 19, 2012 at 1:30 - 2:30 PM ET
Kim Shepherd, CEO(Decision Toolbox Inc)
In case you haven't heard, employment is broken. Like the tormented Sybil in the book and movie of the same name, the world of employment is currently exhibiting multiple personalities. We have a candidate rich environment, a talent drought, available jobs, high unemployment, and a communication revolution, to name a few, all playing out simultaneously.
At this point in history, the combined effects of downsizing,
unemployment, underemployment, off-shoring, outsourcing, technology, telecommuting, social media, increased competition, and good old fashioned denial have rendered the processes of recruiting, hiring, and retaining employees – as we've known them – highly confusing and ineffective, and it's being felt on both sides of the fence.
If you're a human resources professional or a hiring manager, your team has inevitably been cut in the last few years and you are being asked to do much more with much less. You are stretched and really don't have the time needed for effective recruiting, interviewing, on-boarding and retention efforts. At the same time, the clock is moving at warp speed and competition for A-players is fiercer than ever.
In this presentation, Kim Shepherd explores employment's "Seven Stages of Engagement" (Attraction, Selection, Interviewing, Hiring, On-boarding, Retention, and Development), discusses how each is currently broken, and offers creative, street smart tips for success in each critical stage of the employment process.
At the end of this session, participants will come away with readily applicable ideas to improve their recruitment processes and communications and to become viewed as an employer of choice among employment candidates and incumbents.
Who Should Participate
Human Resources and Talent Acquisition professionals, hiring managers, business owners.
What You Will Learn
1. Immediately implement street smart tips for improving recruitment strategies. 2. Confidently apply the most current modes of communication and social media to stand out as an employer of choice to employment candidates. 3. Upgrade existing or develop new on boarding processes to inspire employee engagement and improve retention.

I love Philippians 3:13-14 because when I read those verses I get inspired.
Pressing on toward the goal….
To win a prize…
Forgetting what is behind…
Straining toward what is ahead.
Forgetting what is behind. Why are we called to forget? Because we have been forgiven for our past sins. We have to believe, if we repented and asked forgiveness, Jesus has granted us the forgiveness we were needing. Let go of the guilt!!! If we don't, we are holding onto baggage that will hurt our "race." Jesus has forgiven us, have faith in that knowledge and freedom. As Jesus forgives us, so should we forgive ourselves. If we don't we are only hurting ourselves and not being obedient to Christ.
Join me today at Roomag where I share on the importance of letting go of the past and embracing what God has for your future!
What are some of your goals for this coming fall?
Love God Greatly!

More than 40% of California hospitals received a grade of C or lower on patient safety in a new national report card aimed at prodding hospitals to do more to end thousands of preventable injuries and deaths.
The Leapfrog Group, an employer-backed nonprofit group focused on healthcare quality, said it issued these first-ever scores Wednesday so consumers and employers can be aware of poorly performing hospitals before using them. The ratings are available online at http://www.hospitalsafetyscore.org.

@nytimes @plasmatron Ouch... Do you think it was the last time a Murray win could make England and Welsh people proud? #indyref
Andy Murray became the first British man to win Wimbledon Sunday since Fred Perry in 1936. The 26-year-old Scot defeated Novak Djokovic, 6-4 7-5 6-4, becoming Scotland's first men's singles Wimbledon champ since Harold Mahony in 1896.
The New York Times promptly filed a story on Murray's victory, headline: After 77 Years, Murray and England Rule. And as soon as @nytimes tweeted the link to the story, with the verbatim text of the headline, Twitter let the Times know that they didn't appreciate the implication that Murray was English.
The Times updated the article online almost instantaneously - and will probably post a correction at some point - with the headline: After 77 Years, Murray and Britain Rule. Still, the tweet remains. And the Twitter criticism from English and Scottish supporters of Murray (and probably a few non-Brits who just like Twitter fights) will not stop.

When I was growing up, my dad and I would sit in the living room together and scheme. Our schemes always focused on some big invention we would create, patent, and sell for millions of dollars. As I got older, there were times when I'd see the actuality of some of our ideas sitting on the shelf at Walmart or in the pages of SkyMall magazine. However, more often than not, our ideas would never sell. I didn't mind that we didn't come up with a million-dollar idea, and when I became an adult, I came to the conclusion that I may not have it in me to be an entrepreneur.
Then I got my job at OrangeSoda, as an Account Manager, and I moved up the manager tract. It was working here that I realized I didn't need a million-dollar idea to start a small business. I just needed something I was passionate about. The atmosphere at OrangeSoda encourages its employees to explore their own talents and personal interests. Everyone seems to have their own small businesses on the side, and that atmosphere helped me decide that I had to do something. I asked myself, what am I passionate enough about to start a business around?
About six months after I decided I wanted to start some sort of business, a good friend of mine asked if I wanted to start a website reviewing books. I am an avid reader, and my friend and I share an interest in the same types of books, so we got started. Now, our website has been up for two years, and we average 700 visitors a month of natural traffic. Our traffic almost always comes from the titles of the books we review. Therefore, we make sure that each of our reviews has the title of the book clearly labeled, and we make the book title our title tag.
Using some of the internet marketing skills I've learned at work, we link back to our site from small reviews we post on GoodReads.com, Amazon, Facebook, and Twitter. Most recently, we've started pinning the book cover to Pinterest, with a teaser of our review. We've monetized our website by putting up Google AdSense, which is a free program from Google that puts up relevant ads and pays us if those ads see results. We're also partnering with Amazon, so if our site sends someone to Amazon for a purchase, we receive a small payment.
Currently, our site generates a little money on the side (it's not quite a million-dollar idea– yet), but more importantly, I am doing something I love, not to mention getting a small tax break and getting some books before they're released. All in all, it's inspiring to take a step back and think about the younger, scheming version of myself and realize that this type of business was not possible when I was little, before the age of the internet. The internet allows for so many opportunities of individual ownership and idea sharing, which is downright exciting. I'm just happy to be a part of it.

With a little more than a month since the Hazelwood Board of Education changed its leadership, Interim Superintendent Grayling Tobias presented a 30-day report to the board and the public Tuesday night.
Tobias's presentation included the transition plan and priorities that he's laid out for the district as well as the activities that he's attended in the past 30 days.
The plan focused a great deal on rebuilding and re-establishing relationships within the community as well as with state and federal officials, but it also gave insight to further building student achievement and improvement.
"Our No. 1 priority continues to be student achievement," he said. "In the last 30 days, we have initiated several action steps that will lead to improved student achievement. We have spent the past several weeks sharing this plan with staff members across our District."
He also detailed that the improvement plans of schools are being examined and reviewed.
"I hope the community appreciates this type of leadership and I hope the community takes notice of the transparency," Board member Mark Behlmann said following the presentation.
Board President Cheryl Latham pointed out that there's much more work to be done in the district but applauded the presentation and said community members expect this and the children of the district deserve this.
Tobias said he would prepare and present a 60-day plan report for the month of November, too.

Update 3/11/2014
I spent most of February unmerging my Yahoo/ATT emails.
A long, boring, and often frustrating effort.
If you're curious about some of the details you can read the blog post. But the Star Trek Face Palm picture gives you an idea of how I felt while it was going on.
At the end of January thousands of Yahoo Email addresses were hacked. In the process of trying to make a new password I found that since my ATT email and Yahoo email were "Merged" I could not find anyone who could figure out how to "UnMerge" them so I could access my Yahoo Groups.
This blog post is my frustrated ranting.

How to access GOOGLE HANGOUTS
Posted as a note on my Facebook wall
What one needs:
Gmail account
Sign up for Google+
Download the app. Works on all devices. You download "Hangouts" from Google Play, iTunes App Store, or for your computer from the link below.
It is free.
You don't need a webcam. One can invite someone to a Google Hangout by typing in the person's phone number. The call is free within the United States. So no, you do not need a webcam to be part of a Google Hangout. In order to participate in a Google Hangout one does need to jump through the Google Hoops: Gmail, Google+, download the app.
I'm going to rope in some friends to test out Google Hangout. I already use Chrome, have gmail accounts (for two YouTube channels) so all I had to do was download the app, easy enough to do.
10 people can be in one call.
You can create a "circle" in Google+ just family, friends who share similar hobbies like polymer clay or astrology, business or pleasure.
Unfortunately Google Hangouts cannot be schedule ahead of time. Someone needs to start a hangout and then invite people to the hangout, that can be done via Google+ circle, a phone number, or email address, if you've filled out the "about" page with Google+. I'd use the personal email address or phone numbers and not share the url through a Yahoo Group because there has been delays with posts showing up in Yahoo Groups.
Recording the Google Hangout is in conjunction with YouTube and public live streaming. Not something you want for a business meeting. But what if you wanted to record the business meeting to be shared privately?
Here is an article about audio recording of the Google Hangout with a third party programs.
Here are some current YouTube tutorials for Google Hangouts.

With school starting in a week for most Albuquerque kids, businesses across the metro have gathered thousands of school supplies to make sure students start the year off right.
The businesses have been collecting school supplies almost all summer from their own employees. On Tuesday, employees from Fidelity Investments filled a school bus with backpacks, pencils, art supplies and more to send to APS.
The supplies will be passed out to 54,000 low-income or homeless kids attending APS schools.
"We like to make sure we make a difference in the community where our employees live and work, and with such a great need here in Albuquerque Public Schools for our student population, Fidelity has the focus on students to stay in school," said Veronica Reyes of Fidelity.
If you're interested in receiving some of these supplies, APS says to contact your child's school counselor. They will then provide you with information on how to get help.

Nashville Mayor Karl Dean is choosing to dip into the city's reserve fund to balance next year's budget. In his annual State of Metro address, Dean said he's the only first-term mayor in the last two decades to avoid a property tax hike.
"The alternative of asking our citizens to pay more in property taxes while they struggle to make their own ends meet would not have been the right thing to do. This year, our approach to the budget will be the same. We will not raise property taxes."
Asked if the city could go another four years without a tax increase, Dean – who is running for reelection – said he wouldn't speculate.
Dean frames the use of reserves as necessary to replace stimulus money for Metro Schools.
Schools Director Jesse Register says the district will lose $30 million in federal funding.
"We're tightening our belts like everybody else. But I'll tell you, the support that we're getting from local government here, with increases here and with the increase we'll get from the state, will really make this not a crisis year for us."
The additional state funding is a result of higher enrollment numbers.
Also receiving an increase under Mayor Dean's proposal is the Metro Police Department, which has a new precinct and crime lab coming online. Other departments, Dean says, will generally be cut by one or two percent.
The Metro Council will begin work on the mayor's budget proposal later this week. Council members are supposed to pass a spending plan by July 1st.
Obesity Becomes Campaign Issue
Dean spent a portion of his annual State of Metro address on what he calls a crisis for the city – obesity. Health is becoming a campaign issue for the mayor's opponent.
Dean says he's using his bully pulpit to bring attention to the city's obesity problem. He's challenged people to walk 100 miles by July 9th. He says the Public Health Department is spending $7.5 million in federal money on prevention programs. And Dean wants to establish more community gardens throughout the city.
Dean says the rate of obesity in Nashville is 30 percent.
"It's not about how people look in their clothes. It's not about being able to brag about rankings. It's about lives."
Councilman Michael Craddock is running for mayor and calls Dean's health initiatives a government intrusion.
"Quite frankly, I don't think it's the government's job or responsibility or duty to tell people how to eat and how to live."
Dean is running for a second term. Election Day is August 4th.

Below is the full audio of the mayor's State of Metro address, in which he also reviews last May's flooding, which turned out to be the 4th largest non-hurricane disaster in U.S. history.

Stay up-to-date with KAKE News:
MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) -- Michael Beasley is the centerpiece of
what's already being called the greatest freshman class in Kansas
State basketball history.
The 6-foot-9 power forward is the best recruit Kansas State ever
signed and is considered by many the No. 1 prospect in the country.
Beasley was the MVP of the McDonald's All-American game and led
the U.S. under-19 squad to a silver medal in the FIBA World
Championships this summer.
Bill Walker, a 6-6 guard/forward, was almost as highly regarded
as Beasley and played in six games as a freshman last year before a
season-ending ACL injury.
The Wildcats also have point guard Jacob Pullen and four others
in a class that is the envy of every other school in the
Kansas State also has a new head coach. Former assistant coach
Frank Martin replaced Bob Huggins, who left after just one year.
In Huggins' one season, the Wildcats got their most wins in
almost two decades, their highest finish ever in the Big 12 and
their first postseason appearance in almost 10 years.

The football team had some big shoes to fill at running back and quarterback.
Gone from last year's 9-3 team are all-state tailback , now a freshman at Iowa State, and quarterback , who is a freshman at Boston College.
While senior quarterback Logan Hutson struggled in his first start Saturday afternoon at Riverview Gardens, senior running back Dixon Anthon was a workhorse and led the Red Devils to a dominating 47-32 victory.
"I just wanted to do my best. It was all the line, all on them. I just ran behind them," said Anthon, who had 28 carries for 113 yards and five touchdowns at halftime. He had just three carries for eight yards in the second half.
"I'm not sure Robbie ever scored five touchdowns in a half and Dixon is going to make us forget about Robbie," Chaminade coach Doug Taylor quipped. "No, but that was awesome. He took over and did the job."
Hutson finished 4-of-12 for 106 yards, but it was a 46-yard completion to Matthew Greer that set up Anthon's first score. The Red Devils continued to use power football to add to its lead with a 7-yard Anthon run with 4:33 remaining in the first quarter.
The Rams had big plays there for the taking. Junior receiver Corey Winfield beat his defender deep three times in the first half, but quarterback John Gould led Winfield out of bounds twice and was sacked by Chaminade's Max Wilhelm on the other play. Jeff Barlow later added a second-half sack.
"We looked like we knew what we were doing," Taylor said. "We ran the ball like we like to do. We did everything we needed to do."
The Riverview offense was abysmal in the first half with 20 offensive plays for minus five yards. Riverview's only first down of the half came via penalty. The Rams also turned the ball over four times. Gould finished 9-of-24 for 145 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions.
"The first half was really challenging," said first-year Riverview coach Kenric Walker. "I think it was first-game jitters."
A Justin Smith interception of Gould led to a 4-yard Anthon touchdown early in a long and busy second quarter. Another completion to Greer – this time for 26 yards – set up a 5-yard Anthon plunge. Following two missed extra points and two failed two-point conversions, Chaminade finally got a Thomas Martin extra point to sail through the uprights for a 31-0 lead following another Anthon touchdown 39 seconds before halftime.
"Our goal was just to get low and drive them off the ball," Anthon said.
The Rams decided to throw the ball on the first play of the ensuing possession and Gould's pass was picked off by Spencer Byrne, who returned it 37 yards for a touchdown. Martin converted the extra point and Chaminade led 38-0 at the break, meaning the second half began with a running clock.
"We went in at halftime and it was basically a gut-check," Walker said. "We told them they had to fight for it if they wanted it."
A 51-yard kick return by Willie Maxwell, coupled with a 15-yard facemask penalty, set the Rams up at the Chaminade 32 to begin the second half. An 18-yard Darien Daniels run pushed the Rams into positive yardage for the first time in the game and set up a 9-yard touchdown pass from Gould to Winfield.
"Momentum-wise, that was awesome," Walker said. "That's really what kick-started us. They had it in their minds that they were going to come out and try to win this game. They didn't care that we were late, they wanted to make sure everybody's mind was right before we stepped back out."
With a mix of starters and backups in for Chaminade, the Rams continued to claw back. A 55-yard run by Winfield with 4:10 remaining in the third made it a 38-12 game. Chaminade fumbled on the ensuing kickoff and the Rams again took over in Red Devils territory.
They cut into the lead some more on a wild play. The shotgun snap was low and scooted past Daniels, who retreated 10 yards to pick up the ball, scrambled and lateraled back to Winfield, who then bolted for a 26-yard score.
"They showed some sheer will," Walker said of his players. "A busted play, they wanted something to happen and they made it happen."
The Rams did get a 46-yard pass play to Winfield to set up a 7-yard Daniels score. Fred Anderson also scored on a 12-yard pass but it was too little, too late as the Red Devils added a safety and a 48-yard touchdown run from Brandon Minor in the fourth quarter. A 74-yard touchdown pass to Maxwell was negated by one of 14 Riverview penalties for 120 yards.
"We've got a lot of running to do for all those penalties," Walker said. "There are a lot of things we need to work on. The system is brand new and we're still jelling and cohesively trying to come together."
