June 2 is not the only date that Kristina needs to pack for. On June 28, Senior Sociology/Anthropology Major Kristina Fosse will be boarding a plane to China to fulfill her service with the Peace Corps.
Kristina came to Gustavus with as a sophomore count and has been able to graduate in three years. She will be the youngest member of her Peace Corps group, turning 21 before she leaves. After studying abroad in Bangladesh during January 2012, Kristina knew she wanted to serve others and experience other cultures.
"My time in Bangladesh really solidified my decision to apply to the Peace Corps. I am really excited for the whole experience and being able to gain new language skills," she said.
Once Kristina found out she was accepted to the program, she began researching Chinese culture and has started teaching herself Mandarin with some help from friends.
"One of Kristina's driving forces is learning and exploring new cultures. While she studied abroad in Bangladesh, she made it her goal to fully immerse herself into the culture, which included breaking some cultural norms to learn the most that she could,"Office Coordinator in the Center for Servant Leadership Jill VanOsdol said.
When Kristina leaves for China, she will train for two months before being assigned to teach English at a university in Southwest China. Right now she is focusing on her last half semester at Gustavus, hanging out with friends, and enjoying her last Gustie experiences.
"She is a constant reminder that to be a Gustie is to be true to oneself. She has truly been a light to this campus," Sophomore Hayden Goldstien said.
Kristina has worked in the Center for Servant Leadership Office during her three years here and volunteers in the community by doing Study Buddies, teaching English Language Learners (ELL) and adults.
"Kristina has gotten to know a lot of people of campus and, in doing so, has inspired others to do the same," VanOsdol said.
"Whenever I see her, I am greeted with a smile. Kristina has such a big heart and is always positive," Sophomore Mariah Wika said.
"I have had the opportunity to really get to know Kristina over this past year, and she is a very inspiring person. She has shown me what is truly possible when you dedicate yourself to a goal."
As an Art Scholar, Kristina enjoys expressing herself in photography in and out of the classroom and is also an Art Editor on Firethorne.
"Kristina has a creative mind and is a very thoughtful person, yet still has a great sense of humor,"Kristina's cousin, Sophomore Nick Reiners, said. "The saying that 'your college years are the best of your life' is so true, and I am so grateful that I got the chance to spend some of them with a family member, who also happens to be one of my closest friends."
Kristina has embraced the Gustavus experience by taking risks and giving 100 percent of herself to what she works on.
"If I could describe Kristina in one way, it would be Portlandia. Partially because she likes the show, partially because she is a borderline hipster, but mainly because she isn't afraid to be herself," Goldstien said.

Barefoot Beach is actually on the same land mass - Little Hickory Island - as Bonita Beach. The south end of the island is home to a preserve. County rangers offer a long list of activities and educational programs, ranging from guided canoe trips to presentations on protected species like sea turtles and wading birds.
Pros: Little development on the south end of Barefoot Beach. Secluded from condominiums and commercial strips.
Cons: Slow drive from Bonita Beach Road to the preserve through the upscale development. Lone entrance at Barefoot Beach Boulevard, with a gatehouse and guard for private residences, can make it hard for potential visitors to find the beach.
Likely visitors: People seeking a more natural beach.
Getting there: Heading west on Bonita Beach Road, make a left on Barefoot Beach Boulevard, just before Bonita Beach. Continue through a series of private residences to reach the park entrance.
Parking: $8 entrance fee per vehicle or free for Collier County residents with a beach parking permit. There are three parking lots.
Facilities: There are restrooms, showers, concessions and picnic tables.
Hours: 8 a.m. to sunset
Other details: There is fishing gear and fishing ramps, two nature trails, butterfly and cacti gardens, shelling, lectures and guided tours, water equipment rentals and gopher tortoises.

Although there are 26 other greens, one parcel of bentgrass stands out at Hilton Chicago/Indian Lakes Resort's golf complex. It is a true island green that is approachable only by bridge or conveniently placed hovercraft. This is one of many spectacular course details that populate Blackhawk Trace Golf Club's three 9-hole courses, each of which comes in at more than 3,400 yards and challenges golfers to a par 36. Renowned golf-course architect Rick Jacobson extensively renovated the links in 2002, and rather than cover blades of grass in mascara and call it a makeover, he decided to transform the 1960s-era bunkers into dramatically sloping sand traps and install four tee options at nearly every hole. Jacobson also switched the greens, tees, and fairways to bentgrass and incorporated fescue grasses to add texture and flavor for grazing golf carts.
Before conquering the courses, players can stretch out swings at the club's extensive practice facilities, which include 46 all-grass hitting stations, two large putting greens, and practice bunkers. Golfers looking for guidance or a professional friend can employ the talents of onsite PGA instructors for lessons. After a long day of strutting after putts, players can head to the Masters Clubhouse to refuel with sandwiches and flatbreads.
Course at a Glance:
In the winter, it looks as though an alien spacecraft has touched down at Links & Tees Golf Facility. Within this futuristic structure—actually an inflatable golf dome whose three layers trap heat—PGA professionals teach lessons and golfers practice their snow-clearing swings. This impressive indoor facility—along with an outdoor driving range that boasts more than 50 hitting stations, a 10,000-square foot putting green, and a 5,000-square foot chipping green—has repeatedly landed Links & Tees among Golf Range Magazine's Top 100 Golf Practice Facilities.
After warming up at the range, golfers can take to the tees and bentgrass fairways of a nine-hole executive course, where three ponds snatch up balls and a smattering of sand bunkers tempt hungry golfers to stop and dig for clams. They can also head for Putter's Peak, an 18-hole miniature-golf course where tiki statues line fairways, the rumble of a Lilliputian waterfall fills the air, and putters must venture into the dark depths of a cave. After either a miniature or executive round of golf, visitors can pull off the plate armor that protects against mis-aimed balls, put down their clubs, and pick up a hot dog or pizza at the 4,000-square-foot clubhouse.
Course at a Glance:
Slice-prone swings and inconsistent putting strokes meet their demise at Green Valley Golf Range, where guests crush golf balls at an 80-station driving range and sends putts through a tricky mini-golf course. The range boasts towering lights and 20 covered, heated hitting stalls to furnish practice at night, during inclement weather, and through the eternal ice age of the future. The practice facility—which also encompasses a putting green, chipping area, and sand trap—replaces its golf balls every year, ensuring quality equipment for players' enjoyment. The practice facility also houses a virtual golf entertainment experience that allows golfers to play I-tee golf games in which they can compete on courses around the world.
A lighthouse, a pint-sized car, and other old-fashioned obstacles await players at the mini-golf course, a circuit best conquered with laser-like focus attained with the help of Green Valley's complimentary coffee. Clubbers can replenish energy stores zapped after a long day of practice or bench-pressing their driver with a soft-serve ice-cream cone, a slice of Rosati's pizza, or a hot dog, all of which are sold in the Green Valley Ice Cream Shoppe.
Mature timbers and ponds surround the emerald corridors of Salt Creek Golf Club's executive course as the layout weaves across 3,985 yards of well-maintained terrain. Throughout the par 63 layout, nine par 3s nurture players' relationships with their mid- and short-irons, and nine par 4s—including a 381-yarder that measures as the course's longest hole—ensure that drivers and 3-woods don't file negligence suits. The course presents memorable shots in its scaled-down layout, such as the harrowing approach into an island green that awaits at the Blue Course's eighth hole. After the round, Golfers can retire to the Grill Room, serve savory sandwiches, burgers, and salads and pour sudsy libations. Guests can recap their rounds in the Grill Room's indoor diner with four TVs, enjoy breezes on the open-air patio.
McCollum Park Miniature Golf & Concession blends natural beauty with a manmade play-land. Packing this range of scenery into a small area, the 18-hole course winds through whimsically designed greens landscaped with rocks and logs, as well as a waterfall, a waterwheel, and an old mining cart affixed to a track. Visitors can also use basketballs and volleyballs on the court or for proportionally skewed games of golf.
Since 1976, Riedy's Tee Time Golf Range's PGA professional instructors have helped people shave strokes from their games on an outdoor driving range. Ultramodern mats anchor golfers as they grace Riedy's well-manicured grass tees with golf balls plucked from a bucket or the throat pouch of a pelican. Always onsite, Reidy's instructors can aid players in achieving the ideal arch for their swing or understanding the basics of swing mechanics during personalized lessons.

Abortion protesters
They're out again. Nowhere near an abortion clinic, and standing right next to the road on a sidewalk. They're holding huge, colorful pictures of the aftermath of abortions, unable to be missed on the very busy road. They're in the town next to us right now, and they come out every year when the weather gets nice.
Let's be clear, I am categorically against abortion, but this? Showing graphic pictures of what they believe to be murder victims?? What good do these people expect to come out of this? I don't think even for one second that they'd be okay with holding the photographs of adult murder victims, so why do they think it's okay to do with those?
Whether you're okay with abortion or not, this is sick, and I hate that I have to drive around that part of town so the three year old in the back seat doesn't see it.
I know a girl (not myself) that had a forced abortion (forced by the doctors) and she made sure she got pictures of the aftermath. She ended up selling the pictures to some pro-life anti-abortion group. So most of the images end up being very real.
I'm not anti-abortion, but I'm certainly not pro-choice either. I still don't believe in throwing these pictures in the general publics' face.
You mean abortion? I agree. I don't have that desire either. And, really, I don't have a problem with people protesting almost anything, including abortion. What I do have a problem with is the pictures that they're holding up in the middle of a busy town, on a busy street that I drive (or used to, anyway) my little boy through frequently. He's done nothing at all to be exposed to those images.
Quoting alyssaravensmom:
I'm pro life and have no desire to protest. It's legal, so that's a choice they can make.
I seriously (if I knew more people) would grab some paint rollers and do a mass "run-by painting" on those signs! Then they'd just be holding pictures with big paint streaks on them! lol
Quoting Crymsm:
Throw water balloons at them. Lol jk
I agree with you OP. I'm not an abortion fan, but I'm also not going to go protest anyones choice. Not to mention I have absolutely no desire what so ever to see such photos.

NOW that this San Antonio-Golden State Western Conference semifinal is down to a best-of-three series, it will come down to hobbled point guards Tony Parker and Stephen Curry. Of the two, I would be more concerned about Parker because there were times in Game 4 when he appeared out of sorts with that sore calf.
Parker is a pro's pro who could still go for 25 in front of the home folks if healthy, but his game is more predicated on getting into the lane. Curry can still be effective shooting jumpers off that sore ankle.

I would but i cant advertise. But it is the normal Educational cover also if you buy several you are entitled to a free spare projector for warrenty cover on site to enable same day swapout.
The lamp life on Epsons is 5,000 hrs from the X11 onwards, yes if you obstruct the airflow you wont get that but i have had many projectors with close to that pre X11 so its not unusual, also if you incline the projector more than 20 degres out of horizontal you will shorten the lamplife.
Projector Engineer
Marc you clearly have a great deal of experience of projectors and, from I've seen, you are far from being a fan of LED projectors, but you do seem to be in a significant minority on here.
Many of us have found them to be a million times better than the bulb projectors. The life, warranty and performance of LED Epsons and Casios has proved itself time and again in the classroom. It's so good to have something you can just switch on and off and only have to dust rather than clean filters, change the bulbs and watch the image fade and change colour as it ages.

One of my primaries is entirely LED based (Casio M130's I believe) and they're bloody marvellous. None of them have missed a beat, instant on, quality is identical now to the day they were fitted, brightness and clarity is excellent and despite having fans and no filters they don't seem to have as much dust ingress as what they replaced (some Epsons, mostly Sanyos *shudder*)
For note we've just put in a couple of Epson X11's here though, lovely little units and worth the hype.
Hi please dont get me wrong i do like LED projectors and i know there are new ones comming out from other makers, its just i see the broken ones the first ones Casio sent out started with 20 year cover then they halved it and i have seen several burn out and with age they get a colour cast going green tinted they are also noiesy and get very hot some reported catching fire, but so can lamp projectors, but i think some people lose the way a little when adding up the cost they like any other projector suck in the dust and need cleaning, most projectors need little cleaning now (used to be every 1,000 hrs) and a service every 3 years is often enough, now the first models where withdrawn and another model came out much improved but, they are too expencive. Add it up what is the cost of a Casio for say its life and think this will be 10 years max (regardless of what is claimed) so about the same as a modern Epson say X11 epson less than £300 with 5 year cover and replacement lamp (lamps are now only £100 or less) with free lamp unlikly you would buy more than one in ten years as they have a claimed life of 5,000 hrs so total cost for ten years £400 now what is the cost of a Casio for same Ten years? also epson are instant off same as many now so no cooloing as per older projectors. So please show me the benifit of LED?

Indeed, the Casio's were a game changer.
Wouldn't buy anything else.
£400? You've missed the cost of the service, both time, ensuring this is done out of school term (which for term time only techs may be a problem), service turn around time and potential replacement projector while waiting for the projector to be returned and cost of the service itself, plus the cost in time for replacing the bulb. Last time I checked a projector service was £150+. Therefore Epson x11 = ~£750* over 10 years (Plus what happens in 6 years time when you can't find a replacement bulb?)
Casio LED = ~£600 over 10 years.
To me on paper it's fairly close between the 2 technologies, but when averaged over how ever many dozen projectors you look after and taking into account the time spent auditing their lamp life and trying to predict the number of bulbs you will need in stock each year, my money is on LEDs being the clear winner after 10 years.
* Sorry miscalculated. I originally put £600 but 2 services in the 10 years = £300, + £100+ bulb, + £300 projector, + time = ~£750

Actually as i said BOTH projectors will require service as they BOTH suck in dust at the same rate, i have serviced many casios, the cost of service is half what you quote, and history has shown us lamp price has actually come down consistantly over the last ten years, now modern lamps are a fraction of what they would have cost you even 5 years ago for the newer models. I have NEVER had a problem getting lamps for populer projectors yes some obscure Delta and the like but even Sanyo older models and all epson are still available, just checked sanyo prices have dropped from £235 to £120 for their last models.
We have NEVER had any increse in any of our lamp prices, they have always been downward.

Fair enough, but we all know LCD and DLP/LED don't need servicing at the same rate. LCDs suffer from mirror burn after a couple of years. So far I am yet to see a LED suffer from the same problems. Obviously YMMV depending on dust levels, filter cleaning routine (who can honestly say every one of their projectors has its filters cleaned every month?)...
I said after 6 years. What about 9 years, can you still get lamps for them? Looking at a quite common model we have, the BECTA sanyo xe31 which came out 6 years ago, and the lamp price is around £170. So if we say the service is £75 then thats £245. At that price is it worth paying £245 to extend the life of something which could fail when you can buy new for £300?just checked sanyo prices have dropped from £235 to £120 for their last models.
We have NEVER had any increse in any of our lamp prices, they have always been downward.
Plus we haven't even came to the issue of lamps becoming useless in their last ~20% of their life.

Dare I say it that the views of an engineer and those of school techs are bound to differ.
The former only spends his time on projectors.
The rest of us are grateful to have something that frees us up to do everything else. You cannot underestimate the cost of man hours spent on keeping conventional projectors going!
Just as a bit of info - I recently had a Casio develop spots before its eyes (prob dust in there somewhere)
You have to go on a website an register the fault to get a returns number and pay to have it sent back (which cost us 25 pounds via post office!)
It (or a replacement - I didn't check) was back a week later all working fine.
This is only the 1st one to fail on me (one failed after a week - not counting that one) and I've got about 10 in service

"Still works great"
Version: WinScan2PDF 2.15
No problems scanning and making a PDF. The latest version adjusts resolution, scan quality, with no problems.
None, as long as you decline the optional garbageware.
A VERY useful little program for anyone who scans and sends documents. For me it replaces the primary functions I used in the Canon Toolbox which doesn't work with Windows 7 or 8. PDF Signature documents from this program are now very easy to read and accepted by almost everyone as legally binding as the originals.
"A very neat and capable program"
Version: WinScan2PDF 2.11
I urgently needed to scan two home insurance applications and send them to my agent as email PDF attachments. I downloaded this program, installed without any of the crapware, and got the applications scanned and emailed in about 1/3 the time it would have taken to do regular JPEG scans of each page and email them. The resolution was great.
My new computer has Windows 8 64 bit instead of Vista 32 bit so the original MF3240 Canon laser printer Toolbox didn't work despite the 64 bit driver installation, but this program took over a big part of the functions for me.Cons
A whole bunch of crapware, toolbars, etc. have to be declined. Too bad the creator has to make a living with such stuff as he's very talented.
I Love It!
Still working great.

"Malware do not download!"
Version: WinScan2PDF 1.77
Explains why yahoo keeps taking over as my search engine
"wanderful and useful software"
Version: WinScan2PDF 1.66
Portable, free, litlle program.
Very good, simple to use.
Fast and efficientCons
No con at all.
I recommand this software to all users.
"Freezes and errors out."
Version: WinScan2PDF 1.56
seemingly lightweight application that is straight to the point
doesn't actually work.
unfortuanately, it does not work on a windows 7 machine with phenomenal specs using an HP LaserJet 3055 printer/scanner/fax.
"Great, no problems. It does what it's meant to do."
Version: WinScan2PDF 1.55
It does not have to be installed. The execution file runs and the job is done.
No cons found, it works.
"Includes unwanted browser malware."
Version: WinScan2PDF 1.44
Once I saw the malware, I removed it and never attempted to use it. I never will know if it has any pros.
Installing WinScan2PDF put a shopping service I did not want into IE, Firefox and Chrome. It took me an hour to remove the program and the malware.
Stay away from software that hides malware with the program. No wonder they offer it for free.
"Excellent software !"
Version: WinScan2PDF 1.44
Does what it is designed to do quickly and easily.
Absolutely none !
"Excellent program. Simple & straight-forward"
Version: WinScan2PDF 1.43
Loads fast, easy to save files as jpeg instead of just pdf.
None that I can think of.
"Extremely useful"
Version: WinScan2PDF 1.42
I use this to scan all important documents. The Multi-page features, both from feeder and bed, are especially useful. The multi-page from the bed makes scanning double sided docs easy.
Not sure what I've done differently, but I just checked and multi-page is set when U start. Maybe it is default but that's fine. Works great with that as default.Cons
I'd like other settings to be saved such as color vs b&W and page size on auto-feed, but this could be a built-in Windows app that is called.
Try it. You'll get hooked.

Implementation Rules For Fiscal Decentralization
Rule #1 Fiscal decentralization should be viewed as a comprehensive system.Rule #2 Finance follows function.Rule #3There must be a strong central ability to monitor and evaluate decentralization.Rule #4 One intergovernmental system does not fit the urban and the rural sector. Rule #5 Fiscal decentralization requires significant local government taxing powers.Rule #6 Central governments must keep the fiscal decentralization rules that they make .Rule #7 Keep it simple. Rule #8 The design of the intergovernmental transfer system should match the objectives of the decentralization reform .Rule #9 Fiscal decentralization should consider all three levels of government. Rule #10 Impose a hard budget constraint. Rule #11 Recognize that intergovernmental systems are always in transition and plan for this. Rule #12 There must be a champion for fiscal decentralization .Download Info

Fudge Brownie is a large and lovable brown mackerel (striped) tabby with a short coat. He's 5 years old and has been neutered, and we think he will be a great lap cat for a lucky adopter! Fudge comes off as shy when you first meet him, but we believe that all the sounds and activity in the shelter stress him out a bit and that given time, he'll adjust much better to a home environment with, of course, someone who loves him.
For current adoption fees, please see our website, www.dearbornanimals.org. Adoption fee includes: age-appropriate vaccinations, spay or neuter, microchip, ID tag, fecal / worming, basic physical and behavior assessment. Dogs (6 months and older) receive an occult heartworm test. For an additional $20, cats (12 weeks and older) can be tested for FIV (feline immunodeficiency virus) / FLV (feline leukemia).
Big, cuddly Sisquo (who is a Super Sizer) is wishing for cat comforters. As more kitties arrive at the shelter, we need more comforters to send them home with. You can help with the Cat Comforter Program by donating just $5 to help defray the cost of purchasing materials or you can make comforters yourself.
5-year-old Hannah is both a Super Sizer (weighing 90 pounds) and a Thirty Thursday's Child, so her adoption fee is just $100 on either Tuesday or Thursday. According to her foster parents, Hannah particularly loves going on errands with them, and behaves very well in the car.

EVERYBODY NEEDS TO WATCH THIS, about half way down the page there is a video, next to the title that says mad men. You have to watch this, very interesting discussion about GW and the trade and if MJ did the right thing. Its the video in the middle of the other two.

Everyone disagreed with Chuck because like they said teams should know they are not going to be able to win a title. So in order to bring in money you want to make the playoffs no matter what. Maybe you get lucky and win a game or two. Also they talked about how many draft picks now a days that turn into busts. They all agree portland won the trade but chuck thinks its ok because we got two crap picks and Pryz. What a joke. Also what does Chuck know about wining titles because last time I checked he had 0. That is why he is a fat NBA analyst now rather than a coach or something to that extent.
Get at me on twitter @dcarnys
In fact, as someone who hasn't won a ring, Chuck knows best on how NOT to build a team...
I heard there were two guys named Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen who played for the Bulls. Apparently they were pretty good. They kept players like Barkley, Ewing, Karl Malone, and John Stockton from winning rings. But maybe it's just a myth.

Bad Food = Fortunato's – Last night my wife and I ate at Fortunato's and ordered Shrimp coctail,Bruschetta and Calamari for appitizers. We also ordered medium rare Filet and medium rare Bragiole. The service was fair, the shrimp coctail was not devained, the Bruchetta was un-edible(tasted terrible),the Calamari had a Garlic Aoli sauce all over. It tasted and resembled mayonaise. The Filet and Brigiole were medium to well done. The mushroom risotto was over cooked and had the appearance and taste of a Maypo gruel. Overall experiance was SUB- PAR. We spent $133.00 including tip. and would have had a better meal at wendys. We have eaten at Cintro, Ricardos and La Boniche and enjoyed fabulous meals. We will not be back to Fortunato's. If Fortunatos keeps serving such awfull food they will be out of business, as they should be.
My wife and I had dinner last night at Fortunato's Italian Steak Restaurant (Lowell, MA) and were terribly disappointed. Initially we were seated right next to the entry door - when the restaurant was 75% empty. Tables were not cleared, and the only table properly set up for guests was the one right next to the entrance door. As people came in, we practically had to move out of their way to let them in When we mentioned it to a waitress, she said that people weren't supposed to come in that way. Yet the door was open and the only alternative entrance brought people into a lounge vs. the restaurant. Eventually we were moved when my wife requested it for a second time.
From the very beginning, things didn't go well. We sat down and we had to ask for water, had to ask for bread which was never delivered. The waitresses seemed very busy yet there was practically no one in the restaurant that we could see. We saw the waitress when we were ready to order, a second waitress brought the food and that was the last time we saw anyone voluntarily come to our table. We eventually had to ask a passing waitress to please come over which, after 3-4 minutes, she did. One gets the feeling that a guest is putting the waitstaff "out" by asking (or expecting) a reasonable amount of service.
We ordered Friuti di Mare (fruit of the sea) - a dish that was supposed to be seafood (shrimp, muscles and scallops and turned out to be a horrible dish with all the seafood buried in a sauce that tasted much like pure tomato paste. It was inedible and we returned it to the kitchen.
Both my wife and I would NOT recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys a pleasant meal in a relaxed atmosphere.
Busy on weekends – The place is packed on Friday and Saturday nights, so try a weekday. The ambiance is good, little cold so bring a sweater. Food's fantastic, the King Ribeye is HUGE! Their wine list is like 2 pages long , too, great time to try something new. The waitresses are also really friendly, but the service is a little delayed on weekends. Parking is horrible, better to park like a block away and walk. I was with a group in the function hall upstairs once, great place for a party, really private.
Great Italian in Lowell – We went to Fortunato's having just moved to the area from Boston and being accustomed to eating in the North End approx. once a month. That said, I ate some of the best food I have ever put in my mouth at Fortunato's. The chef created lasagna of the day was Chicken, prosciutto and sage with alfredo sauce--FANTASTICO! The portions were filling and the service friendly and prompt. The bill was $60 for one app, two entrees, one dessert and two sodas--not bad at all! Summertime outside dining is on our list to try next!

Getting Here and Around
Take A-96, follow the signs to Lindau, and 20 km (12 mi) west of Munich take the exit for Herrsching, the lake's principal town.
Herrsching is also the end of the S-bahn 8 suburban line, a 47-minute ride from Munich's Marienplatz. From the Herrsching train station, Bus 952 runs north along the lake, and Bus 951 runs south and continues on to Starnberg in a 40-minute journey.
Getting around by boat is the best way to visit. Each town on the lake has an Anlegestelle (pier).

Gossiping - it's something that seems to just form part of social life -where we talk shit about people behind their backs to others. Sometimes it is used deliberately to sabotage a person's position or status, other times it seems harmless and innocent - but it's not. The Life Review 'Facing Gossip' is about a person whose life was ruined by gossip. It started out as with most people - in her teenage years - but it eventually took over her life and destroyed any chance of having any type of real and honest communication with other people.
If you're at the stage in your life where you're being 'introduced' to gossip - whether you're doing or whether you're being gossiped about, this interview is something you should listen to. If you've started gossiping yourself, the interview will show you exactly what you're in for and what chances you're taking with your life and your future. If you have any hopes within yourself to live a meaningful life, where you are fulfilled and able to connect with other people, share real and intimate moments with them - then you should reconsider gossiping about other people and the interview will explain why.
If - on the other hand, you find yourself being gossiped about - this interview will give you insight into why people gossip and how it's got nothing to do with you. So - to prevent yourself from shaping who you are in terms of what other peopl say about you - listen to this interview - it may change the further course of your life.
Gossip is never innocent and has many consequences - but we have an opportunity to educate ourselves on human behaviour so that we can take responsibility for it, for ourselves, for our lives and stop the harm that is being done through things like gossiping. Whether gossip is an acceptable part of human social life can be easily tested: you don't like being gossiped about - no one likes being gossiped about - we wouldn't want our child to come home crying because someone was gossiping about them, right? Then that's our answer.

Harlan Sanders and Ali are the most recognized Ky citizens in the world. Lincoln's great. Nathan Stubblefield invented the Radio. Those are the top Kentuckians.
Meriwether Lewis was an American explorer, soldier, and public administrator, best known for his role as the leader of the Lewis and Clark Expedition.
There was a show on the History Channel last night. They were investigating whether this guy was murdered or committed suicide...... |
The answer to this question is...
Meriwether was born in Virginia... though Lewis and Clark expedition started in Louisville, w/ KY boys... but so was War of 1812... and Mexican-American War...
Lewis and Clark... George Rogers Clark... Daniel Boone... William Henry Harrison... Chris Columbus... I kind of lump these guys in the same pile. I think, if you're white, you can think of them as going thru the jungle, hav'n to battle the elements, w/ the unknown frontier, w/ the "savage" Indians attack'n u wherever u go... but if you're Indian, then you think of them as invaders, as colonizers, whose on their land, whose bring'n the genocidal land steal'n barbaric European-Americans w/ them. I'm reading about Meriweather's suicide/murder closely right now http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meriwether_Lewis... . When Lewis and Clark comes up, I think about York, whose got a big statue downtown. York (Lewis and Clark's slave) ran away, and never came back. Or maybe he was killed. Who knows. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/York_ (explorer) |
It's good to like yourself... that's for sure. But you're avoid'n the question... or at least say WHY ur betta than, say, Nathan Stubblefield. He invented the Radio. That's amaz'n, and wonderful. |
Meriwether Lewis was murdered, I'm convinced. Who commits suicide w/ multiple gunshots? And he still lived, so how can one not get in a good head shot that would end it immediately, at point blank range? No... that doesn't make any sense. I'm convinced Meriwether was slayed:
"Undoubtedly Jefferson wrote in the light of all the evidence that had reached him in 1813, but it appears that his view of the case was far from being that of persons who lived in the vicinity of the scene at the time. That Governor Lewis did not die by his own hand, but was murdered and robbed, was common report at the time, as vouched by some persons still living...." Something u may like, while these Indian killers dont give me much pride, when I hear about Simon Kenton and Daniel Boone's end'n, I do think a bit differently... Simon Kenton died a poor drunken old man. So did Simon Girty... but Kenton didn't gain large tracts of land, as some of these Land speculators did (say Richard Henderson of Transylvania Company), and Daniel Boone would say he liked the Red folks better than the White folks. And now this! So Meriwether Lewis was murdered... by who! He was try'n to get some money from the War Dept... maybe an old score? Maybe York!?! Jefferson seemed to have concluded it a suicide... by why? If Meriwether is crawl'n away, that's not a man who wants to die... that's a man who got shot. |
lincoln was a horrid racist. he didnt believe anyone deserved to be a slave but also said some horrible things about black people
That's true, and the Emancipation Proclamation was a Military initiative, which really freed nobody. Reconstruction was when the freedom was supposed to come, and well, that was ended in 1877... and was a dismal failure. So Lincoln tried, but didn't succeed... him dy'n helped the nation to always remember him, but hurt the movement... same w/ MLK.
Regardless... u didn't answer the question. Who do u think is the greatest Kyian? One on this list... or somebody else? |
Judged: 1 larry flynt...j/k im not really sure... garret morgan was cool i guess |
Larry Flynt is a good one... he's a great Freedom of Speech advocate, from Magoffin County? I think...
Garrett Morgan was alright... but... the Greatest? I mean, the Greatest? I would have to land on... Abraham Lincoln. He was just a game changer all around. He represented the 2nd American Revolution, and I like how America is today... in terms of governance... also. I like him. His Homestead Land Policy should make any renter's mouth water. Just fill out an application, and you get 160 acres of free land. All you have to do, is take care of it, and it's yours free and clear after 5 years. Wow. Amazing. When we gonna do something like that. And where do I sign? |
I am impressed u even know Garrett Morgan... let alone admire him. Cool.
on being the greatest lincoln is hard to beat for sure. i mentioned morgan because think how something so simple as a traffic signal impacts so many peoples lives everyday all over the world. its pretty cool really |
http://www.topix.com/forum/louisville/T4RP5RH... Here's a thread where me and this other dude is argu'n about Garrett Morgan... as well as Nathan Stubblefield, who doesn't have a solid claim on Radio, even though he was the first to send and receive wireless transmission... what else would u call it?
Tell me when this thread is updated: (Registration is not required) |

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Microsoft is hoping to shove aside rivals such as Salesforce.com and Oracle in the CRM (customer relationship management) software market by linking its own Dynamics CRM application with new capabilities for marketing automation and social media analysis.
Microsoft's recently acquired MarketingPilot marketing automation software has been given a "simplified user experience" as well as a connector to Dynamics CRM, the company announced Tuesday during the Convergence conference in New Orleans. Marketing automation applications, particularly ones that allow customers to run campaigns across multiple channels, are becoming increasingly important to CRM vendors.
The updated MarketingPilot software will be available this month in the U.S. and other countries later this year.
Microsoft's move to tie MarketingPilot with Dynamics CRM is not much of a surprise. It ties into a growing desire by CRM vendors to augment core sales automation functionality with a broader array of related capabilities. Oracle and Salesforce.com both boosted their marketing software prowess with the respective acquisitions of Eloqua and Buddy Media.
Another key area for CRM vendors lies in social media sentiment analysis. To that end, on Tuesday Microsoft announced the acquisition of Netbreeze. The Swiss company's capabilities will be embedded into Dynamics CRM.
The technology will go up against Salesforce.com's Radian6 software as well as Oracle's Collective Intellect and Involver applications, all of which were also the result of acquisitions.
While many such "listening platforms" have been in the market for some time, customers have used them in stand-alone form.
They generally target the same goals, meaning competitive differentiation comes down to the amount of social data an application can ingest and analyze, and the ultimate quality of that analysis.
Netbreeze stands out from the pack since its natural language processing technology can parse nearly 30 languages natively, according to David Pennington, director of Dynamics CRM product marketing. Microsoft is also gaining the intellectual firepower of Netbreeze's staff, which started out in data science and later moved into social monitoring and listening, he said.
The Netbreeze acquisition "is part of a broader strategy by Microsoft to disrupt the social analytics market," said analyst Michael Krigsman, CEO of consulting firm Asuret. "Clearly, Microsoft has Salesforce.com in its sights."
"Netbreeze was a technology acquisition, to hire the smart guys," he added. "Microsoft wants to create a simpler and easier-to-use social analytics product."

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Counties Leery Of 'Blueway' Title For White River
Several counties along the White River are opposing a national designation that names the White River a National Blueway.
County leaders opposed to the measure say they're worried the national designation could mean limitations for landowners and farmers.
But Emily Beyer of the U.S. Department of Interior says the National Blueways System is not regulatory, nor does it affect private property rights or governmental authorities.
The Stuttgart Daily Leader reports that Arkansas County officials have approved a resolution to oppose the designation.
Several other counties have done the same, including Boone, Cleveland and Lawrence counties.
The National Blueways System is part of an Obama administration effort to establish a community-driven conservation and recreation agenda.
The designation recognizes the partnerships that are working to conserve the river across its watershed.

Patricia was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on April 26, 1963. From the moment she came into the world, Patricia's life was far from easy. "I was put up for adoption at birth, and I was left in the hospital for about a month," Patricia says.
For the next seven years of Patricia's life, she bounced around from one foster home to another before finally being adopted. All this time, she says she longed to be reunited with her birth mother. "I had some disbelief that she didn't mean to put me up for adoption. I just would always wish that my birth mother was going to come back and get me," Patricia says. "Then, as you get older, you know that that's not going to happen." |
