So, you want to make a difference in the world? More specifically, do you want a career that "makes a difference"? For increasing numbers of young people, their search for meaningful work leads them to the public sector. This work might involve contributing to the life of a local community by working in city/county municipalities, public safety, the military or with state or federal government.
Long after a new public sector employee has cleared the often complex world of public sector hiring, he or she is then faced with decisions about how to advance in one's career. Career development matters in the public sector in the same way that it does in the private; the rules may simply be a bit less clear.
Some of the traditional career development paths involve informal relationships like mentoring or networking within affinity groups. Another option is through public/private partnerships that match rising young public sector workers with industry mentors, such as The American Council for Technology (ACT) - Industry Advisory Council (IAC), or ACT-IAC. ACT-IAC was formed with the express purpose of providing a forum for collaboration across and beyond government with leading industry and government figures by focusing on public sector management issues and how to improve those processes. ACT-IAC provides a crucial, often-missing element of a formalized leadership development and collaboration process.
To find out more about ACT-IAC, please join us for the webcast on Fostering Career Growth of Young Professionals in the Government Community Through Collaboration.

Can simulation help application development?
Application development projects are famously unsuccessful. Some analysts estimate that the majority of corporate software endeavors fail to deliver appropriate features and come in on budget.
A small company called iRise has developed software which helps collect an application's requirements and quickly build a prototype that simulates what an application will look like before actual coding is done. The company release version 5 of its product, which is aimed at business analysts, on Monday.
iRise on Monday also published the results of a commissioned study that showed that 69 percent of respondents are dissatisfied with current methods for communicating … Read more

text: Your photograph- That smirk, a time when… To wrap my arms again. Oh…to not forget the memories left… All we lost at two am. When Fall's wind swept in- it laid the groundwork for collapse. If you could have seen another tomorrow, watched us as we aged- Held my hand and said goodbye… We would know the mystery of this life. Instead we cry, we sob and weep- Shrug our shoulders, retreat. As our children sleep we swear we shall never curse another day. To know where time no longer is- in death…we meet again.

I made this for my sister to wear on halloween, but she ended up deciding to be something else. Still, I think she enjoys playing around in this costume.
I used the Butterick 4827 pattern, view A. I had to shorten the pattern through the waist, because she was a little shorter than the measurements for the pattern. I inserted godets in the front seams to look like an underdress sticking through, and for those I used the godets in Simplicity 4923. I drafted the puffy lower-sleeves myself.
I made a mistake by buying too little fabric. I dyed the linen yellow, dried it, laid it out and then realized that my pattern stuck of the end. So I went back to the store and bought more, and tried to dye it to match the other fabric. There is a hint of a difference, but unless you look at it up close, you can't tell.
I dyed the other linen green and used it on the lower-sleeves and godets. The sleeves close at the wrist with big snaps.
I did a ton of hand work on this. I hand-embroidered my own design on the bodice and blanket-stitched around the neck edge and sleeve center-seam. I also stitched some wide soutache braid around the neck and down the lacing section in the back. I hand-bound the lacing holes in the back. I also hand-sewed the hem of the dress.
This was a really fun project to make. I loved doing it.
6 yards patterned linen, 2 yards plain linen, 3/4 yard yellow cotton, 1 1/2 yards interfacing, 2 yards brown cord, 2 yards green soutache braid, 2 packs of yellow dye, 1 pack of green dye, 4 1/2 yards hem facing, two large snaps, embroidery floss, thread.

I'm excited to announce that I've joined the MomAdvice team – and today is my first post there. I'm also nervous and hoping you might pop over and join me there today? I'm writing about one of the most important things I've learned about marriage: the difference being on the same team as your spouse can make.
All I can manage during late-night feedings is to hold my phone and scroll through Facebook. Which means, of course, that I've taken every "What [Disney princess/Friends character/Muppet/arbitrary object {WHAT?!}] Are You?" quiz that exists.
{In case you're wondering – and of course you are – I'm Lady Sybil from Downton Abbey, Leslie Knope from Parks & Recreation, Jessie from Saved by the Bell, Jerry from Seinfeld, Leonard from Big Bang Theory, Princess Leia, Hermione and Rumpelstilstkin. Don't even ask me what that last one means. I don't want to talk about it.}
Most recently I took the quiz asking which celebrity couple my significant other and I are. According to this highly scientific test, my husband and I "are" Barack and Michelle Obama, the powerhouse couple.
Ummm, okay?
Politics and pretend psychology aside, the definition of our spirit celeb couple had one good point:
Despite being two individual powerhouses, you make a perfect team.
I still don't know about the powerhouse thing, but I do know that we're at our very best as a couple when we function as a team.
Join me at MomAdvice for the rest of this post?

Highlights: Croatia (Dubrovnik) , Montenegro (Sveti Stefan)
From Croatia with its ancient towns, scenic islands, and friendly locals to Montenegro – a mystical land of wild beauty – this is the perfect trip to celebrate the beginning of your married life together!
Sprinkled with special moments such as a private evening cruise around the UNESCO World Heritage town of Dubrovnik, to complimentary spa treatments and dinners in quite possibly the most romantic sights in the world, this honeymoon vacation will live forever in your memories.
Meet with hospitable locals as they break bread with you and introduce you to the regions wines. Take in the views onboard a traditional boat on a private tour of Skadar Lake. The peacefulness of the lake, with its jagged coastline of many bays, islands, and peninsulas would enchant even the most experienced traveler. From the ancient Mediterranean town of Cavtat to the Island and town of Korcula - home town of Marco Polo – the first world traveler, and the old town of Perast - a sleepy baroque town on the seashore which represents the best preserved baroque entity in the Adriatic – you'll be hard pressed to pick your top highlights from the trip upon your return.
When you are not exploring these very special lands, relax in the sumptuous surroundings of some of the best accommodations on offer. With a taste of urban and rural seaside locations, it will strike the perfect balance.
Enjoy a personalized vacation that best suits your needs, developed by one of our experienced destination experts. Relax during your trip with our 24/7 support and expert local guidance.
A transfer between the airport and the city or your hotel with a private vehicle and driver is provided.
Experience Dubrovnik in a unique romantic way. Meet your driver for a private transfer to the town port where a skipper will be waiting for you to take you on a one-of-a-kind, privately chartered cruise around Dubrovnik city walls and the island of Lokrum. The amazing views and ambiance will be spiced up with delicious bites of the famous Ston oysters and a glass of wine for ultimate pleasure. Immerse yourself into the enchanting flavors and scents and discover the finest views of the Pearl of Mediterranean. After this romantic cruise, you may continue to enjoy Dubrovnik and its dazzling nightlife – in the endless bar, lounges and night clubs.
Prominently positioned on the cliffs above Dubrovnik's prestigious St. Jacob precinct, is the newly renovated Villa Dubrovnik (5*). It is located only minutes from the fortified beauty of the Old City's cultural landmarks and a few steps to everything that Dubrovnik has been offering visitors for centuries. The Villa Dubrovnik has always been the favourite destination of those seeking privacy, luxury, and elegance. With spectacular views of the Old City and Island Lokrum, all 56 residences of the Villa Dubrovnik provide legendary service as they embody contemporary luxury and refined elegance.
Enjoy a half day walking tour of Dubrovnik, one of the most beautiful stone-built cities in the world. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Dubrovnik owes its special charm to the historic monuments that testify to its rich history. While strolling down Stradun, the main street, you will get to stop and visit the Franciscan Monastery of the "Order of Friars Minors" that preserves one of the three oldest pharmacies in Europe. Continue down to Orlando Column and the Sponza Palace and visit the Church of St. Blasius, the patron-saint of the town. Discover Rector's Palace and the Cathedral of the Virgin Mary and its treasury. The rest of the afternoon is at leisure to explore this stunning town on your own. We recommend you to take a walk along the city walls, visit one of the numerous museums or take a funicular ride to the top of the Srđ hill. Entrance fees to Franciscan Monastery, Recto'rs Palace, and Cathedral of the Virgin Mary are included.
What better way to get into vacation mode than by enjoying a complimentary Diamond Bed Spa Treatment at the Villa Dubrovnik's luxurious spa. Restore the freedom of beauty and wellbeing by lying on a bubble of warm water immersed in colored lights and sounds.
During a six hour private guided tour today you will get to tour of the Dubrovnik Hinterland – the region of Konavle.
Meet your private driver and guide in the hotel lobby and relax on the drive to the ancient Mediterranean town of Cavtat. After a 7th century invasion destroyed the town, refugees from the Cavtat formed another settlement, Dubrovnik. Your guide will take you for a stroll through this picturesque little town and up to the top of the hill where you will discover the extraordinary Mausoleum of the Račić Family.
After the walk, continue your exploration of the traditional countryside of Konavle. In the village of Čilipi, a local family will welcome you at their humble estate that has a small ethno-museum presenting Konavle's history, a tavern with a wine cellar, and a variety of agricultural buildings. While you enjoy their hospitality, they will serve a traditional lunch.
After lunch, you will be brought back to Dubrovnik. Entrance fees and lunch are included.
This morning meet your private driver in the hotel lobby for 2 hour transfer to the small town of Orebic at Peljecas peninsula where you will board the public ferry to Korcula. Upon arrival in Korcula, meet your local guide for a 2 hour private tour of the Old Town of Korčula. This secluded part of the world is known as the home town of Marco Polo – the first world traveler. With more than 2,000 years of history, the former Greek colony of the "Black Korčula" resisted the sieges of centuries and remained a living monument that is now yours to discover. Through the narrow cobblestone streets you will come to the Cathedral of St. Marko, an architectural masterpiece in Gothic and Renaissance style. Its construction is an admirable testimony of the artistry of the local stone masons and the excellent adamant stone of the island. The Cathedral's abbatial collection abounds with exhibits from Greek and Roman period, as well as with peculiar artifacts of the recent history. You will visit also the Town Museum of Korčula, with its interesting exhibits illustrating the island's glorious naval history. Your stroll will finally take you to Marko Polo's childhood home – a modest mediaeval house from which originates this great Venetian merchant, writer and traveler. In the early afternoon, you will embark for the ferry back to Orebić where you will meet your driver for a private transfer back to Dubrovnik. On your way, you may stop in Ston – a small town known as the paradise for sea food lovers. Ston was also an important military fort of the Ragusan Republic, which was well protected by massive city walls over 5 km in length. These medieval walls from the 14th century are the longest city walls in Europe. The wall was meant to protect the precious salt pans that contributed to Dubrovnik's wealth, which are still in use today.
This morning meet your driver in the hotel lobby for a private transfer to Montenegro – a mystical land of wild beauty. Your local guide will welcome you at the border of Croatia and Montenegro. In Boka Bay, the only fjord in the Mediterranean, mountains sink in the crystal-clear sea in front of your eyes in the unique harmony of intact nature and cultural heritage. Your first destination is the old town of Perast, a sleepy baroque town on the seashore. The strong merchant navy tradition represents the best preserved baroque entity in the Adriatic. The most beautiful buildings of this small town were built in the 17th and 18th centuries. Perast also abounds in sacred monuments, such as the Church Sveti Nikola and Our Lady of the Rocks, built on the artificial island just opposite Perast. Following your visit to Perast, your guide and driver will take you to Kotor, hometown of the famous sailors and traders of Boka Bay. Kotor's architecture, a post-modern mix of the various epochs and its position at the bottom of the sharp cliffs of the Lovcen Mountain, makes it different from any other Mediterranean town. Your guide will take you to the Cathedral of St. Trifun, a monument of Roman culture and one of the most recognizable symbols of the town. You will also visit the Maritime Museum, the custodian of Boka navy fame. Continue onwards to Budva, considered to be one of the oldest settlements in the Balkans. This ancient town lies on a little island that was linked to land by a sandbar and in time became a peninsula. Your guide will take you for a walk around the 15th century ramparts and medieval fortifications. Inside the walls, you will find the town to be a combination of narrow streets and little squares, with superb monuments of the different Mediterranean cultures. From here, you will be transferred to your hotel in the area.
Enjoy a private welcome dinner at the hotel - what a nice start to your stay. Dinner includes a three course menu.
Come back from dinner to a romantic setting of flower petals on your bed and candles lighting up the room - romance is in the air!
Aman Sveti Stefan (5*) is located in the centre of Montenegro's Adriatic coastline, south of Budva and between the villages of Pržno and Sveti Stefan. The site incorporates two kilometres of coastline including the pink sandy beaches of Sveti Stefan, Milocer Beach, and the famous Queen's Beach. Aman Sveti Stefan enjoys breathtaking views of the sea, across the bay and along Montenegro's most renowned stretch of coastline. The island itself measures 12,400 square metres, and while its historic exterior remains largely unchanged, the resort's interiors have been restored and updated to meet contemporary expectations.
Enjoy a wonderfully relaxing day on the beach today. Your sun beds and sun umbrellas will be waiting for you.
Leaving the island and returning to the mainland, one finds a number of different dining options, all part of Aman Sveti Stefan. Invoking the ambience of a beachside churrasqueria, the Olive Tree is open for lunch and dinner, and specialises in regional and local Montenegrin cuisine. The restaurant offers a bar and two signature charcoal-fired grills, as well as views of Sveti Stefan Island and its beaches. The Beach Café is located in a secluded spot and provides informal dining throughout the day. Shaded by cypress and olive trees, the al fresco setting is ideal for a selection of light snacks and a simple café menu. Open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, Loggia features a wisteria covered colonnade that provides a shady retreat and views of the bay. Serving a variety of classic and contemporary dishes from the Adriatic region for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, the Villa Milo'cer Dining Room is an elegant and intimate dining space. Perched atop a rocky precipice, Queen's Chair offers breathtaking views of the Bay of Budva. Open from 6pm, the restaurant specialises in Pan-Adriatic fare with a distinctive Italian feel. Local cheeses, garden-fresh salads, and homemade pastas are served on the expansive terrace along with hand-selected local wines. Suffice to say that you will be spoiled for dining options while you are here!
Today you will meet your guide and driver in the hotel lobby for a private tour of Skadar Lake. The peacefulness of the lake, with its jagged coastline of many bays, islands, and peninsulas would enchant even the most experienced traveler. In the small fishing village of Virpazar you will be welcomed by a local family Uksanovic that will prepare a private wine tasting for you. Among others, you will taste the famous red vine Vranac, a product that Montenegrins are extremely proud of. From here, you will be taken on a private traditional boat that will reveal the lake's opulent beauty in the most distinctive way. You will first come to the small island of Grmozur that used to house a prison for the political captives. Continue to the mouth of the Moraca River and the picturesque sandbar that is home to numerous shell species. Back on board, your host will prepare a light snack of homemade prosciutto, cheese, bread, and olive oil. Later you will pass by the Vranjina peninsula that hides the Monastery of St. Nicholas and the Lesendro fortress that represents the eternal torch of Montenegrin freedom. Many other fortifications can be found upon the islands, built by the Turks and later by the Montenegrins, bearing witness to the frequent battles fought here between these sworn enemies. At the end of your tour your guide and driver will take you back to your hotel where you can enjoy the rest of the day at leisure.
Enjoy a farewell dinner this evening - try the exquisite cuisine of Aman's upscale restaurant Queen's Chair, that serves Pan-Adriatic fare with a distinctive Italian flavour. Perched atop a rocky precipice, Queen's Chair offers breathtaking views of the Bay of Budva. Dinner includes a three course menu.
A transfer from Sveti Stefan and the airport in Dubrovnik with a private vehicle and driver is provided. The total transfer time is approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes.

Edgar Y. Choueiri?
That's my guess.
I won't be in the office tomorrow. I'll be down in Hunterdon County, NJ, helping a very good friend set up a very special hi-fi system. This is bigBIGnews, but I can't say anything else about it yet.
Speculate amongst yourselves.

I will do some web epidemiology.
BIG news, eh?
Does it involve bamboo and Mighty Joe Young?
I used to watch them when I was young, although they were probably before my time even. Too bad the good shows have to leave and get replaced with today's mediocre entertainment.

The position of the struts on the 2012 Naish Torch Kite makes the kite stiffer in the air, for an even more precise handling.
The 2012 Naish Torch Kite is equally at home winning heats on the world stage, as it is ripping up your home beach. The 2012 Naish Torch Kite features refinements to all elements of the package: reinforcements, strut positions and a shorter arc.
2012 Naish Torch Kite Features
2012 Naish Torch Kite Designers Notes
What's New: This year the idea was to make the kite more stable and to add stiffness to the arc. To do this, we looked to the success of the Park and shortened the entire arc and moved both side struts down. This allows the center of the kite to be more full. The lower strut allows for a stiffer profile on the wing tip, making the kite more rigid in the air.
The Result: You get a kite that has a crisper feel in the bar and is more responsive to bar input. This makes overpowered riding smoother. The turns are also better, as the kite shoots back up faster in the kite loop, providing extra pull to land without making a hole in the ocean.

I am looking for an app that allows me to zoom-in or zoom-out by pinching the screen like my Ipod Touch. Thanks in advance.
Muti-Touch Image Gallery allows multi-touch for just the gallery.
Dolphin Web Browser allows multi-touch for browsing.
PhonyMyPC allows multi-touch for remote PC access.
Nothing yet for a system wide multi-touch
picsay does that
I seem to remember that the European Droid OS has its native multi-touch enabled on the default software. Even read that people were installing that OS on U.S. Droids, but wasn't going to jump on that bandwagon until all possible glitches & issues were known/worked out.
Until then.. Picasy Pro, Dolphin Broswer, etc. work for me.
Disclaimer: I work for Verizon, but I do not work wireless. I do, however, design the data circuits that connect all those lovely little cell towers.
Rumors abound that Android 2.1 will be made available for Droid on January 22nd - that is the scoop on the web so take it with a grain of salt. The Eurpean market is on 2.1, and some folks have rooted their Droids and loaded a custom 2.1 on it, and a few highlights from the videos I have seen of Droids with 2.1:
- multitouch
- animated wallpapers (including some touch sensitive ones)
- faster animations
- 5 home screens
- a slick "rolling cube" style app drawer
- I am sure there is more that I am missing
So, 2.1 will have global pinch zooming (multi touch)?
multi-touch gallery has pinch zoom in/out. it's a free replacement for the standard gallery app. the most recent version added ads though.

For Better and Worse
The 2009 Season is just days away, and it's time to take stock of the Colts to see whether this year's team should be better or worse than last year's. For the purposes of this exercise, I'm comparing the team to the START of last season. That means things that happened during the year (like Addai getting hurt) don't factor in.
How are the 2009 Colts better than the 2008 Colts at QB? Manning is 100%. He's clearly in zone this preseason and starts '09 light years ahead of where he was at the start of last year.
Brown is a dramatic upgrade over Rhodes, though Simpson is a downgrade from a healthy Mike Hart. That's obviously not as important.
This is actually a close call. Wayne is a year older (that's bad). Gonzo is too (that's good). So the question is if Harrison last year is better than Collie this year. Yes. Without question. Garcon is back with another year's experience so that's good.
Clark is settling into his prime, but Robinson, Tamme, and Santi have all had a year in the system. The TE corps is poised for a huge year.
This is tough. Johnson is a major downgrade from last year's Ugoh. Lilja is a major upgrade from the revolving door at guard. Jeff Saturday is finally healthy after a camp injury made for a rough season. Pollack should be a year better. Diem is the same. All in all, the line should be at least a little better than it was at the start of last season. Let's hope so.
For all the talk about the improvement at the D-tackle situation, the line is basically the same as it was last year at this time. Remember that Ed Johnson wasn't cut until a week into the season. So three of the four starters are the same, only we've added a year of age to Freeney and Mathis. The D-line is better than what it was at the END of last season, but not necessarily at the beginning.
When two of last year's projected starters barely make the roster this year, you know you've gotten a lot better. Session struggled early in replacing Hagler, but made the necessary adjustments and is poised for a big year. Brackett is a year older, but Wheeler should be no worse (and hopefully much better) than Keiaho.
But not by much. The same four guys are starting, but injuries are an issue. Sanders and Hayden are dinged up now, and Marlin Jackson is coming off a major knee injury. It's the same excellent group, but it's only fair to assume the injuries have slowed them at least a little.
AV is coming off of major surgery and still isn't 100%.
McAfee looks like he could be a keeper and might prove better than Hunter Smith, but for now, it's only fair to downgrade him for being a rookie with no experience holding.
Same worthless crap as always. If TJ Rushing is healthy and has the job, I'll grade it as better. If not, it'll be a season long game of "Guess who we all pray won't fumble"
You don't lose a Hall of Fame coach and get better. I like Caldwell, but he has to prove himself.
Also, I am personally terrified that Larry Coyer will go blitz happy and ruin the season. My confidence level in him has plummeted after watching ineffectual blitz after ineffectual blitz in the preseason. I hate blitzes, especially on third and long.
Upgrades to the LB corps, the running backs, and the O-line outweigh slight drops to the WRs, secondary, and special teams units. The areas where this team is worse, it isn't necessarily much worse, and the areas where it is better, it is significantly better. Last year's team was an 8 win club led by one of the best QBs in history. It won 12 games. This year's team is a 10 win team lead by one of the greatest QBs in history who is healthy to start the season.
That's reason enough to hope.

Magnificent.

Back in AG it was mostly irrational Pokeshippers holding a grudge against people pairing May with Ash than anything else. Contestshippers and Advanceshippers had some quarrels, but they mostly kept to themselves.
it's offical serena is actually 65 years old just watch is this became shipped as much as pokeshipping, minus all the nostalgia people

Though, with this Serena possibly crushing on Ash and Bonnie trying to find Clemont a wife seems like an effort to bring shipping back after it was pretty nonexistent in BW. Bringing a subplot back into the series might work, or fail miserably. We'll just have to see.

SERENA WILL DECLARE HER LOVE FOR ASH! Time to write terrible fanfiction about Ash and Serena having 27 children and growing up as Elite 4 characters! SHIPPING WARS SHIPPING WARS! Pokeshipping Vs. Ash/Serena....the next big debate!
"you are such a kid ash" ooooooo maybe she meant "you are such a bottom ash"
Wait wait gaiz Iris was blushing introducing herself to Ash, but didn't crush on him Uh oh a loophole
The Storm of the Shippers is looming ahead! Sound the alarms! Get plenty of supplies! This is gonna be a big one!

Here's a better one. (Under spoilers in case it counts as a seizure trigger.)
@Contrary; You're wrong, it's amazing :O
(First time making one of these, so it sucks lol)
maybe those are semi permanent blush stickers
Remember, she's blushing in the poster as well. :P

Well, Now I picture Serena and Ash like when the time Misty and Ash about to part ways in "Gotta Catch Ya Later," except they will see each other in every episode.
Clearly. Even though we have no idea the context of the scene. Doesn't matter. It's time. Prepare yourselves everyone.
Totally canon. :D
This is actually a hard question. I think he does in some way but if he is always being reset, is he really? All I know is that I don't see the problem in having Ash lose and then win., then tie, then win and then lose to his main rival until the league to settle the score. I would enjoy the show more that way to see that he and his rival are both growing and improving. And I'm sure others wouldn't mind that too.

England's Under-20's World Cup hopes are hanging by a thread after a second-half effort from Tottenham's Harry Kane salvaged a 1-1 draw from their second group game against Chile.
Peter Taylor's men appeared to be heading for a defeat that would have been fatal to their hopes of reaching the knockout phase after Nicolas Castillo put the South Americans ahead from the penalty spot.
But Kane replied midway through the second half to secure another draw after Sunday's disappointing result against Iraq.
It means England, who have not won in 17 Finals matches in this competition, will now almost certainly need to break that horrendous sequence in their final match against Egypt in Bursa on Sunday to reach the last 16.
Egypt were left with nothing to play for after bowing out of the tournament with a 2-1 defeat to Iraq, moving the Asian side to the top of their Group.
In Group F, Uruguay beat New Zealand 2-0, sending the Kiwis out of the tournament, while group leaders Uzbekistan and Croatia played out a 1-1 draw.
Information from the Press Association was used in this report.

and I am sure Paul Rhoads agrees 100%
By Mark Janssen
It's all in the record books: 159 wins, four Big 12 North titles and an overall Big 12 championship won in 2003.
To those numbers, however, Kansas State football coach Bill Snyder says, "People get too caught up about the scoreboard reads. To me, what is really important is what are you doing to help young people become successful in life?"
That's the message Snyder recently delivered to an event hosted by the Abilene (Kan.) Area Chamber of Commerce.
Snyder told the gathering that at times the lives of young people are sacrificed "... just to get more points on the scoreboard. I think that is wrong."
He would add that he came to K-State in 1989 not to win football games, but to influence the lives of young people in a positive way, such as Abilene's own Curry Sexton and Cody Whitehair, who will both be significant factors on this year's Wildcat team.
"I told our players that it is important, and you have to believe that it is important, to get better every single day. You cannot be judged, or allow yourself to be judged, by what the scoreboard says," Snyder emphasized. "You need to judge yourself based on your improvement every single day as a person, as a student and as a football athlete.
"We have lost sight as to what athletics is all about," he added. "Many of us can go back to when we played and we played because we enjoyed playing because it was fun. Sometimes you would win and sometimes you would lose, but you enjoyed the competition. You realized after a period of time that it helped you in life. We have so lost sight of that and we are going in a very bad direction."
Within the K-State program, Snyder said he strives to recruit student-athletes who want to be successful, and, want to be leaders.
But, he quoted a National Education Association survey that indicated that while most everyone sets goals, only 50 percent develop a plan to achieve those goals, and only five percent actually achieve their goals.
With his 100-plus Wildcat team members, he says as the head coach "... sometimes our players need help with their plans."
That includes a degree of work and perseverance, which is common place in the Sunflower State.
"One thing I love about the state of Kansas is its perseverance," said Snyder, a native of St. Joseph, Mo. Mentioning how Abraham Lincoln lost seven elections before becoming President of the United States, and how Walt Disney filed for bankruptcy twice before realizing his goal of making movies, he said, "It boils down to perseverance and not giving in."
