MBA New YorkThis is regarding some earlier posts about NYC business schools, before the moderator of this board decided to move this post here:
Sun Mar 11, 2007 05:42 AM
What's happening in terms of the perception of local MBA programs is that relative comparisons are becoming more difficult, and perceived differences between certain schools are beginning to narrow. For example, Columbia's edge over NYU is slowly eroding in part, due to the fact that Stern is further entrenching itself, as a leader in finance and investment valuation. And on a national scale, its finance curriculum is comparable to those of Chicago and Wharton. The same thing is happening between Fordham and St. John's: The Tobin College of Business is moving sharply into "Risk, Financial Engineering, and Investment Management" through its School of Risk Management. With the exception of leveraging its Economics Dept., Fordham does not have the infrastructure to currently compete with St. John's in the more quantitative disciplines related to finance and the strategic management of risk. One of Fordham's perceived strengths is in media, which St. John's cannot presently match in terms of geographical and industry-connected resources. If you compare faculty backgrounds, you'll see a few Fordham finance Profs. with MBAs from St. John's, but not the equivalent in reverse. Back then, Fordham was clearly the 3rd strongest program behind Columbia and NYU. This is not the standard perception now, as more applicants are comparing St. John's to Fordham and vice versa. I would still rank St. John's as the third strongest MBA program behind Columbia and NYU Stern (you can search Stern's web site to see one reason why I make this remark), even if only for the reason that they made more improvements to its program, since 2000 than its regionally ranked competitors. Also, considering the high trade rates between the two schools (St. John's and Fordham); people are more interested in the best fit for them, concerning each school's relative strengths.

MBA New YorkNow, this response is for poster (Copernicus), and his comments (more specifically his rant about St. John's) concerning the following schools:
Sat Apr 21, 2007 05:54 PM
These are the facts.
St. John's SAT Median Average for Incoming Freshman: 1190
Fordham CBA SAT Median Average for Incoming Freshman: 1178 (1210-1215, see Note)
Hofstra SAT Median Average for Incoming Freshman: 1169
Note: These are real 50% percentile median averages, and this information is with best efforts updated, although I believe that Fordham's current average is something like 1210 or 1215. Hofstra's and Fordham's information was verified through their own sites and BusinessWeek, while St. John's information was verified through the University of South Florida.
St. John's School of Law Bar Pass Rate for 2007: 91% (4th highest bar pass rate in NYS)
Fordham Law Bar Pass Rate for 2007: 90% (5th highest bar pass rate in NYS)
Hofstra Law Bar Pass Rate for 2007: 71% (lowest bar pass rate in NYS)
St. John's P/T GMAT Average for Incoming Students: 540 (Acceptance rate: 63%)
Fordham P/T GMAT Average for Incoming Students: 567 (Acceptance rate: 69%)
Hofstra P/T GMAT Average for Incoming Students: 524 (Acceptance rate: 72%)
I hope this helps prospective students considering these schools' part time business programs.

median average? is that a new statistical measure? verified through the univ of South Florida???
why dont you just pick up a copy of US NEWS America's best colleges and see the REAL NUMBERS....
Fordham is by far the superior school of out those 3.
As for Hofstra and St Johns its a toss up, with Hofstra having better future potential. These are the facts period.

MBA New YorkI suggest you learn what a "median average" is before applying to business school (Hint: It's the average of two middle numbers in a range characterized by an even number of values). The University of South Florida is a major research institution that has better access to audited admissions information for its Big East counterparts than the general public.
Fri May 04, 2007 10:43 PM
US News doesn't update all its ranking figures for every single school, as some institutions report for the given year, while others may not report at all. So it may use prior information to fill the gaps, if those areas are not left blank. Therefore, it pays to use multiple sources of reference sometimes.
Did you say "by far the superior school"? Well not according to the reported figures. St. John's P/T MBA program has a lower acceptance rate than Fordham, plus the GMAT spread is only 27-30 points, according to Peterson's and AllbusinessSchools.com. Both schools (yes St. John's and Fordham) have the highest trade rates with each other, according to federal government statistics on financial aid. Hofstra needs to get its bar passage rate up, before pundits talk about future potential. If it keeps coming in last place, there won't be any future, let alone potential.
Did you say "toss up"? Reread my post of what someone had to say about those schools on another board. That individual went to Rutgers and Syracuse, and made it brutally clear that St. John's has "by far" the better academic reputation. Again, the NYSSA (New York Society of Securities Analysts) held its 5th Annual Investment Research Challenge, in which St. John's made it to the final round along with Big East counterparts, Rutgers and Seton Hall. That other school in Hempstead, Long Island has never been invited once to join what the NYSSA calls "the field of eight top area business schools", which includes St. John's.
Next time, put your money where your mouth is before you attempt to cite what you can't reference.

MBA New YorkThere are obviously 2 big time B-Schools in the NYC area
Tue May 29, 2007 01:04 PM
Columbia and NYU
After that there are CUNY, Fordham, Hofstra, Pace, St Johns in no particular order.
It is impossible to say which school is the best in the second group. One thing you can NOT do is listen to their alumni, they will tell you its the next up and coming god knows what. In reality what you need to do is research!
check out who recruits on campus, facilities, try to email professors in specialty of your interest. Some of these schools have MBAs in hard to find specialties which may get you a nice job after graduation.

MBA New YorkThanks for your constructive reply, AnalystNYC. Actually, this debate came from another thread, so I decided to end matters here. My initial argument was that St. John's and Fordham are competitive with each other, which is obviously an agreed upon consensus in the local NYC market (Columbia and NYU are the only 2 nationally recognized programs, thus far). What I find, in particular about the 2nd group is that each one is jockeying for elevated strategic position, and some are working harder than others in specified areas of academic and recruiting concern. Media ranking information cannot give one the full story; all candidates have to look for themselves to find the appropriate selection that best suits them.
Mon Jun 04, 2007 08:12 PM
Unfortunately, your advice is not widely taken, for the reason that some feel that rankings are the end all, be all of bschool evaluation. But again, there is some glaring evidence that some schools are working a lot harder and smarter than others within that second group you mention, and outside investigation and analysis reveal some sharp insights. However, each one of these schools has strategic issues and developmental problems, which must be dealt with rather quickly, rather than in due time. Media rankings are very useful when looking at "clusters" of certain schools. Like you have H/W/S, as you know in the top cluster, and you have CBS/NYU in another cluster. Within these areas, people have to pro-actively assess the situation, beyond the ranking information provided. This is your argument, which is also my contention. Your last comment about "specialization" is on target, and reveals the reason why NYU Stern has caught up to Columbia (check US News current rankings). NYU Stern owns the mindshare position in "Finance" here in new york, and only the curriculum's of UChicago GSB and Wharton are comparable in that area. In any case, you make some good points.
Even with your assertions, no one here has dis-proven me yet, so the stay away from alumni argument is weak. Some of the latest information about Tobin can be found on Stern's web site, which would not make such mention if Tobin wasn't up and coming. Do a search and see for yourself.

MBA New YorkI don't know this school, and I didn't find it in the rankings. But it could still be a worthwhile school, since only a few select schools are ranked.
Thu Jun 14, 2007 05:20 PM
Besides, it's not accredited by the AACSB, which would be the one that counts most.
It has the two following accreditations, of which I can't judge the value: IACBE, ACBSP (which looks almost the same as AACSB, very confusing).
Maybe someone could comment on those two organizations?

MBA MEdia Management New YorkHI this is Dan,
Tue Jul 24, 2007 09:46 PM
Im going to disagree with you guys. I graduated from a small school Metropolitan College of New York. And, Columbia and NYU may have big names but none of the professors are media experts, movie directors or movie practioners. AT Metropolitan College of New York, the 2006 college president (Stephen R. Greenwald) and director and producer of movies like Dune, taught the class!
Not many people know about this program
The Metropolitan College of New York, MBA in Media Managment.
4 reasons this school could be better than the big colleges! (1) Professor Stephen R. Greenwald, created the program. He has run movie production and distribution companies. Some of the films in which he has been associated include: Dune, Conan the Barbarian, Blue Velvet, Crimes of the Heart, Manhunter and Author, Author. He is presently CEO of Odyssey Pictures Corporation and teaches one of the classes.
(2) All students go to a free 12 day study abroad trip (free hotel, plane, transportation, film festival passes, seminars etc,) to Europe as long as they are students of the MCNY program. Destinations have included the Cannes Film Festival or London and Paris to learn about world media.
(3) The program is completed in one year, 3 semesters a year!
(4) I graduated from this program, and can tell you, It was the best experience of my life and I got hired for Sony Pictures the moment I graduated 6/2007.

MBA MEdia Management New YorkThe Metropolitan College of New York MBA program is a waste of time and money. I can't believe they are still accredited. MCNY accreditation cheapens all higher learning facilities with legitimate accreditation. It's a business, not a school. All they care about is letting anybody enter as long as they have money or access to loans. Don't go there, or better yet, go there and tour the "campus" and decide for yourself. It's nothing more than a rip off factory that will take your money and hand you a worthless degree that will not help you get a job. Check out mcnymba(dot)com.

MBA SchoolsYou know, I'm a graduate of Hofstra's MBA program, and I can attest that it is a fine institution. I was afraid of the other programs in the city due to its non-collective nature with the students. So, in essence, don't rely on the rankings per se. Despite knowing what Hofstra's ranked at - in the end, I have a beautiful piece of paper on the wall, which was praised numerous times by employers and colleague alike; as they enjoyed my success as a human being. So if your looking for dollars per square inch after you graduate with a degree from a top-school, remember this, after a few years time, you have nothing to look forward to. So keep your options open, and be willing to explore your intentions, even if you do end up in a Columbia or NYU. Otherwise, the disservice is of your devaluation of self-respect and honor that went into completing a very challenging program. With much respect, yours truly, newton2

I have four kids.
I feel like I've been there, done that, got the T-shirt.
Heck, I've done two babies at the exact same time!
In lots of ways, this whole one baby gig is a breeze.
But…God has a great sense of humor. And just when you think you got something under control, God likes to punk you.
You know, just to remind you that control is something you have none of.
Enter Owen.
Owen who is still a rockstar at night and only wakes once, eats, and goes right back to sleep.
Owen who is the spitting image of his brother as a baby.
Owen who…
is utterly, unabashedly, ridiculously, unapologetically obsessed with ME.
This kid will not tolerate another human being for even ten seconds.
He wants to be held. All the time. 24/7. Never ceasing.
Lots of babies are like that. In fact, I think my girls went through phases like that too.
But in O's case, only Mama will suffice.
Since the day he came out of the womb. This is not a new development.
Not aunts. Not cousins. Not grandmas. And no, not even Dad.
I think he's even kinda hurting people's feelings.
He goes into that wild hysteria pterodactyl scream within seconds.
And it's not because he wants to nurse…because the millisecond I touch him…he stops screeching.
Like a little cute (and slightly obnoxious) light switch.
And he looks at me with those big eyes and is all like "Dude. Where'd you go? Don't do that again. I will pull rank. Don't test me."
I've had help here since Andy's been out of town on business the last two weeks, so I've been able to accommodate the little Diva's demands.
Bu I'm a bit concerned when, you know, real life kicks in and I'm here solo and things need to get done…you know, like wiping little rear ends and making sandwiches and maybe, just maybe…taking a shower.
He will live in his Ergo a lot.
And I think he might just have to do his best impression of a pterodactyl too.
Please tell me this is a phase.
Please tell me he'll outgrow it in…oh, I don't know…tomorrow.
Because I have never ever had such a clingy child…and now I feel like a newbie at this whole mom thing again.
Oh, and he eats.
A lot. A lot. A lot.
I'm scurrrred for our food bill when he's a teen.
Not even kidding.

CATEGORIES Action, Classics, Drama, Romance, Casting, Universal, Scripts, Newsstand, Movies, CinematicalThe wires (yes, I still think of them like that) were buzzing all weekend with MTV's big scoop -- that while Russell Crowe and Ridley Scott were out promoting Body of Lies, the network cornered them about the long-delayed Nottingham, Scott's revisionist Robin Hood story. There have been a lot of names attached to the role of Robin Hood, ranging from Christian Bale to newcomer Sam Riley.
Forget all of that because now, from Scott himself, comes the announcement that Crowe will be playing both roles. Mum on the details, the director would only say it was "a good old clever adjustment of characters. One becomes the other. It changes." I would take that to mean that the Sheriff of Nottingham becomes Robin Hood after having to steal from the poor one too many times ... or they're twins, which would be pretty lame, especially for Scott and Crowe.
But wait -- there's more! CHUD points out that in reading the original screenplay, they noticed the Sheriff was caught between a tyrant king and a less-than-heroic Robin Hood. Nothing in this script indicated the Sheriff and Robin Hood could be played by the same actor. Now, Brian Helgeland came in and did a rewrite, and much depends on that.
The medievalist in me suspects this is less shockingly revisionist than a return to the old medieval legends, where Robin Hood was merely an outlaw who beheaded people from time to time, not the Robin of Locksley we all know and love. It's a pretty flexible legend, and I'm very anxious to see what Scott does with it ... when it finally heads into production, that is.

Oh Panthers...
That's really all you can say in this situation. In a weird way it helps. Say it with me: 'Oh Panthers...'. Despite having the game by the throat, despite the pass rushing looking as good as it's ever going to look, despite Cam Newton throwing for over 300 yards, and despite their only touchdown coming off a fluke it all went wrong, yet again. Now the Panthers are 1-6 on the season.
Let's not have delusions of grandeur here-- the Bears were playing atrociously, then decided they learned how to play. When they remembered how the game of football works, the Panthers had no chance. Did they get lucky on the Steve Smith slip? Absolutely. Did the Panthers get lucky when Louis Murphy happened to be Johnny on the spot? Also yes.
Personally, I've streaked ahead to 'acceptance' in the Kubler-Ross model, and enjoying whats left. At least the football is entertaining. In 2010 games couldn't end quickly enough, because it was like watching, well, like watching the Jacksonville Jaguars. This Panthers' team isn't terrible, they're just.. quirky.
Following the game Twitter went abuzz the way it always does post-game, and Ron Rivera was the primary target-- as if he could have put stickum on Steve Smith's shoes, or made a huge difference in the outcome of the game. Sometimes [expletive] happens, and there's no real answer. Instead of forcing one to fit a non-existent story line, let's accept it for what it was. The Panthers played really well, the Bears played really poorly, yet a couple of mistakes made all the difference.
The much maligned decision will be Ron Rivera electing to have Cam Newton throw a Hail Mary rather than have Justin Medlock attempt a 51-yard field goal. It's the perfect example of the armchair head coach. You have a tenuous lead heading into the half, and the potential that if it's windy and Medlock is short that the Bears will stick Devin Hester back there to attempt a return. Furthermore, you have an inexperienced kicker, who has a self-professed history of confidence issues, trying to make a 51-yarder in one of the NFL's windiest stadiums.
Was it an easy call not to kick? No... but let's not pretend it was the obvious decision
Greg Hardy-- Extremely optimistic
There have been two consistencies with Greg Hardy: That he's notoriously inconsistent, and that he can be an elite player if he manages to put in all together. On Sunday against the Bears he put it all together, and looked utterly unstoppable. With three sacks on the day, and consistent pressure, the only thing that stopped him was when the Bears went into 'full protect' mode, and put a spate of blockers in the backfield.
Justin Medlock-- Extremely optimistic
It's easy to write it off as simply 'doing what a kicker is supposed to do', but the reality is that Justin Medlock was everything the Panthers needed him to be, and on a blustery day was the reason the Panthers kept this game close at all.
Luke Kuechly-- Extremely optimistic
Uncle Luke keeps thriving in the middle. Another week, another ten tackles. If nothing else goes right this year, rest assured knowing that the 1st round pick was the right decision.
Charles Johnson-- Extremely Optimistic
Easy to overlook him with Greg Hardy playing so well, but CJ finished with two sacks and two forced fumbles. Flipping the field was supposed to be the Bears' forte, and yet Johnson ensured the Panthers were in good stead on defense.
Third down offense-- Extremely optimistic
As disappointing as the loss was, Chud called a really good game. The Panthers converted on 52% of their third downs, and even though they struggled to get into the end zone, the offense did what they needed to on third down. Given that for much of the season they've been sub 35 percent, this was a huge jump
Bears' final drive-- Extremely pessimistic
It was unfair to a young CB who had played so well that the defense elected to leave him on an island in a soft zone for almost all of the final plays. All it took was the Bears to run continual slants against Josh Norman, and the fifth round rookie couldn't do anything.
Brad Nortman-- Extremely pessimistic
Okay, so it's a little too easy to pick on the punter. However a six yard punt.... SIX.
That is all.
Bring on the squibs-- Somewhat pessimistic
Hard to hate on the idea too much. Let's face it, the decision to kick away from Devin Hester worked for much of the game. However, the problem was that Carolina fell in love with it so much that they kept doing it, even as the game continued to get closer. The risk was there, but it was worth giving the Bears the ball such a short field for the game winning field goal.
Cam Newton-- Somewhat pessimistic
I'm not slamming Cam for the loss, and each of his turnovers could have been blamed on the receiver. However, the inability to lead an endzone drive really helped kill the Panthers. His accuracy was shaky again, and looks out of his element in 2012.
Overall outlook
Enjoy this for what it is, hot mess and all. I know it's disappointing, we know it should have been better-- but it's not.
Rookies are progressing, games are close, and nobody died. That might as well be a successful day

Canada Stocks-banks Drive Small Tsx Gain As Fed Meets
"The market seems to be relatively sanguine about things," said Gavin Graham, chief strategy officer at Integris Pension Management Corp, adding that investors have already priced in a moderate trimming of stimulus. "The market is saying, 'we've had this selloff in anticipation. When we actually hear tomorrow what the pace of tapering is, maybe it won't be as bad as we expected'," he added. Still, some investors warned that Canadian equities will vulnerable because of the market's high exposure to natural resource prices. "I'm seeing some downside potential," said Marcus Xu, portfolio manager at MY Capital Management Corp in Vancouver. "If the market gets hammered because of the Fed, the metals will go down with it," he added. "The metals and the golds are still perceived as risky assets at this point." The Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index closed 17.23 points, or 0.13 percent, higher at 12,834.11. Seven of the 10 main sectors on the index rose. Financials, the index's most heavily weighted sector, advanced 0.4 percent. The group has been gaining steadily after Canadian banks reported strong results last month, with several raising dividends. Royal Bank of Canada, the country's biggest lender, added 0.6 percent to C$66.32 and played the biggest role of any single stock in leading the index higher. Toronto-Dominion Bank climbed 0.7 percent to C$91.43.
EDF EN Canada and Enbridge Dedicate the 300 Megawatt Lac-Alfred Wind Project
and EDF EN Canada Inc. 2 hours 3 minutes ago 41.82 +0.47 AMQUI, QUEBEC–(Marketwired – Sep 18, 2013) – EDF EN Canada Inc., a subsidiary of EDF Energies Nouvelles, and Enbridge Inc. ( ENB.TO ) ( ENB ), along with over 100 attendees, dedicated the 300 megawatt (MW) Lac-Alfred Wind Project today. The project is the third to be placed into service for the EDF EN Canada and Enbridge partnership, bringing total installed wind capacity in Quebec to 530 MWs. Construction of Lac-Alfred commenced in June 2011 and reached commercial operation in two phases: Phase 1 (150 MW) in January, 2013; and Phase 2 (150 MW) in August 2013. In total, EDF EN Canada will develop and build 1,003.2 MW through seven wind energy projects awarded to EDF EN Canada through Hydro-Quebec call for tenders. This project represents one of four wind projects jointly owned by EDF EN Canada and Enbridge. With an investment of about CAD $700 million, the project created more than 350 jobs during the peak construction phase, and around 15 permanent operation and maintenance jobs. Lac-Alfred generates enough clean electricity to meet the needs of about 70,000 Quebec homes. "A project of this magnitude comes as a result of several years of work by a dedicated team of professionals, a quality relationship with Hydro-Quebec and more importantly the support and involvement of the local communities," said Antoine Cahuzac, CEO, EDF Energies Nouvelles. "I am proud to take part in this dedication and extend my congratulations to the EDF EN Canada team not only for the completion of the largest wind project for our company, but also for their vision of renewable energy and priorities to develop and build each project with attention to safety and responsibility to the local environment. The Lac-Alfred project represents a best practice in wind farm development." Al Kurzenhauser, COO, EDF EN Canada added, "Over the next 20 years of this contract with Hydro-Quebec, the local municipalities will receive a combined contribution of $750,000 annually.

Have been playing around with some basic webcam feed manipulation in Processing. The sketch essentially works like this: Get an array of brightness values from the webcam feed at fixed x and y increments – at point(x, y). Set the z value of our point(x, y) based on its brightness. Draw grid-mesh based on this […]

I was playing around with Mike Davis' Conway processing sketch and found it to be quite addictive. It is a perfect example of very limited and simple rules generating highly complex and indeterminate behaviour – and despite this apparent "randomness", it's fascinating how a number of recognisable patterns emerge out of the system. I haven't […]

Following Junipero Serra's journey, a life of faith and flaws
Junipero Serra, the Franciscan priest who established the first nine missions in California, was one of the state's most influential yet least understood figures. Marking the 300th anniversary of his birth, a major exhibition at the Huntington Library, Art Collections and Botanical Gardens opens Saturday and tells the story of his journey and his life's work. Here is a brief look at some of the places his calling took him and at the exhibition pieces that help tell his story.

After the overwhelming response to my recent e-cigarette blog post, I thought it best to clarify things with an article reviewing the pros and cons of their use. So without any further adieu, here is the article:
The Pros and Cons of E-Cigarettes
Don't forget to answer the attached User Answer question:
What Made You Decide To Try the E-Cigarette?

Hi Deborah,
I commented on the new article, to say it is a nicely-balanced report. However it seems to imply that the Eclipse is an e-cigarette – but the Eclipse has no relation to e-cigarettes at all. An e-cigarette cannot produce carbon monoxide as there is no combustion.
The Eclipse was a trial cigarette project, by RJ Reynolds, that could be described as a cross between a regular cigarette and an Iolite / Ploom butane device. It heated the tobacco in the cigarette without igniting it. There is no relation to an electronic cigarette.
If you were to remove the Eclipse references in your new e-cigarette article, it would help to make it more accurate – thanks.
For some reason the comment has not been enabled there.
- January 27, 2012 at 2:36 pm(2) copd says:
Thanks, my bad. I even googled e-cigarette and it came up. Sorry, I am obviously not a smoker of the E-cigarette. It has been removed. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. I appreciate the positive way you have done so.
- May 30, 2012 at 7:45 pm(3) Nay says:
I don't know any studies but I'm trying to find information because I'm in a tough spot. My coworker regularly uses e-cigs in our shared office and I've asked him to stop twice, now. I told him feel like I'm getting a headache, and like I need to exert more effort to get a "full" breath (I've never had asthma, is this what it feels like?) The air seems "thick" and clammy. My heart races. Sometimes, it makes me cough. He tells me that I'm crazy, to go see a doctor because my 'health issues' are not his fault, never mind that I don't feel this way when he is not using it. My boss doesn't care because he sits right next to him and it doesn't affect him. They are buddies. He probably won't do anything unless the government tell him he has to stop. That doesn't look like it's going to happen any time soon.
I'm looking for any article or research- EVIDENCE- that says that the second hand vapors are harmful, contain measurable amounts of nicotine or p. glycols, and how harmful they are. I don't care if my coworker wants to destroy his lungs, he was smoking before and it didn't affect me. Now he's making ME sick!
Please let me know what I can do. I can't leave and I don't want to get fired.
- June 11, 2012 at 10:08 pm(4) Ryan says:
Hi Nay,
You're dealing with a very bad situation there. I am a lifelong nonsmoker, very clean-living, vegetarian, organic food, etc., so I couldn't be more sympathetic to what you are going through.
The only way to resolve your situation is to pay a visit to your PCP and tell him or her what is going on, the harmful effects it is having on your health, and get a note addressed to your boss. At the end of the day, this is a civil rights issue… Your life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness are all hinged upon your right to breathe clean air, so don't take this lying down. I know it's not pleasant or easy, but you need to put on your fighting gloves and stand up for yourself. Don't allow anyone to subject you to anything that is making you ill. Good luck and please let me know how things are going.
My best to you,
Ryan in Vermont

well Nay you said he smokes actual cigarettes and that didnt bother you yet the E cig does . I would be more concerned about the real thing that the E cig the E cig wont harm you And the real thing will 100%
- November 26, 2012 at 10:49 am(6) LOL@NAY says:
Nay, first of all you talk about measurable amounts of nicotine? Do you drink coffee? Tea? Energy drinks? NO? How about eat potatoes? Well it's just as "harmful" as nicotine. And some may argue the Energy drinks are worse. (and yes for any people out there wondering, potatoes have nicotine as well as many other vegetables). Your second big concern is PG, LOL, do you wear make-up? ever had an IV fluid or medicine at the hospital? used a cold medicine? No? How about eaten a pop tart or bread? These are all things that contain PG. So the next time you wake up to go to work and you are putting on your makeup thinking about how bad this "e-vapor" at work is, remember your skin is soaking up more PG by the time you get there than all day of this "second hand vape". Maybe you should look up chem-trails and have some real concerns about what you're breathing in everyday. SMDH @ ignorant people.
- January 16, 2013 at 12:23 pm(7) Tony says:
Nay, your concerns are valid. There is little research on second-hand vapor, and no conclusive results. You may be one of the unfortunate people who is allergic to propylene glycol, a main ingredient in ecigs. As a previous commenter said, PG is in MANY everyday products, but none of them utilize a vaporized form of PG. There is currently no research about how vaporized PG may affect an existing allergy. Having said this, I am confident that second-hand vapor is MOSTLY (99%) harmless. It may be that you are sensitive to the smell, like some people are highly sensitive to certain colognes or perfumes. Talk to the offending co-worker again, talk to your boss, go to your HR department… if none of those work, then file a lawsuit if you must. I am a vaper, but I would never infringe on someone else's well-being like this person is doing to you.
- February 28, 2013 at 2:05 am(8) sleekhosting says:
E Cigarette as a product was primarily introduced in the market to help people quit smoking.
The primary targets for the product were the people who used to smoke tobacco already.
- August 21, 2013 at 7:38 pm(9) 24lind says:
I found that after my first Ecig I had trouble with breathlesness. Previously I did not have any impairement with my breathing, must say found this rather frightning and will certainly stop smoking ecigs. I am not a heavy smoker and smoke an average of 30 a week. Tobacco cigarettes have not had such an obvious negative effect as Ecigs. Be careful if you choose to go down the Ecig road rather than an alternative stop smoking method.
- September 6, 2013 at 1:09 pm(10) Grateful says:
I can say after being a smoker for 15years I finally quit though I traded it for another habit the (Ecig) but I can say I feel confident it's better than burnt tobacco smell for my kids and the people around me I was smoking three packs a day.I live in a small place and I wished they would of came out with the Vapor thing a long time ago cause my son has asthma no doubt from my wife smoking a half a pack a day while pregnant.but besides that thanks to Ecigs me and my wife do not smoke all them other harmful chemicals and pollute the air and people we love around us
- October 11, 2013 at 7:34 am(11) E Liquid flavor says:
E-cigarettes are much better than regular ones. It doesn't have side effects as the regular cigarettes have. E-cigarettes have a nicotine content flavor , and in regular one tobacco are present which is hazardous to health as compared to nicotine . So I in my view E- cigarettes are the best option/alternative to regular ones.

In Hollywood, if you want to be a movie star, you got to have three big things: a pair of big tits and the willingness to sleep with the director. It's an undeniable truth that Tara Reid has those three credentials that's why she had her 15 minutes of fame when she starred in Van Wilder. But because her 15 minutes of fame run out while more and more celebwhores are fighting for the limelight, the call of famewhoring pushed her to the edge.
Seen her in these leaked sex pics is Tara Reid's pussy getting filled by this stud's thick hard cock to the brim. Man this wild sex kitten really means business. Look at how full and her tits are and how tight and fuckable her body is. Now, are you reminded why she used to be the object of your sexual fantasies?

- Greinke to be available in 'pen for Game 5
- Roenicke: Prince focused on game, not future
- Ash interested in Carpenter-Halladay matchup
- Last call
MILWAUKEE -- As long as his ankle is fine, Rickie Weeks is going to stay in the Brewers' lineup.
Despite his struggles offensively in the first four games of the National League Division Series, it is not likely Weeks will come out of the lineup unless he tells manager Ron Roenicke there's something wrong with his left ankle, which he severely sprained in late July.
"You guys still see the ankle, it isn't right. We knew it wouldn't be," Roenicke said. "But we were hoping offensively that he would get locked in and be able to really hold down that fifth spot, which we've talked about all year."
Weeks has batted just .067 (1-for-15) through four postseason games, including an 0-for-5 performance Wednesday in Game 4 in which he left six runners on base.
In 14 games, Weeks hit .243 in September with one home run, one double and six RBIs. Weeks returned Sept. 10 after missing 41 games with the ankle injury.
But while Weeks hasn't provided the type of protection the Brewers would like in the No. 5 spot behind cleanup hitter Prince Fielder, it remains up to the health of his ankle whether he'll play in Game 5 or any other games this postseason.
"Unless he comes in and unless something is going on with the ankle that he would say, 'You know something, I'm really not close to 100 percent,' then maybe something would change," Roenicke said. "Those things are hard to do."
Greinke to be available in 'pen for Game 5
MILWAUKEE -- If needed, Zack Greinke will be available out of the Brewers' bullpen Friday for Game 5 of the National League Division Series against the D-backs.
Brewers manager Ron Roenicke opted to bring back Game 1 starter Yovani Gallardo on extra rest for the final game of the series, rather than pitch Greinke on regular rest. But with it being an elimination game, Greinke will be one of the top options out of the bullpen if needed.
"Zack would be available, and not just if Yo isn't pitching well," Roenicke said. "Who knows, [Gallardo] could get a line drive back off a leg or something, and he's got to come out. So Zack will be available tomorrow."
Roenicke said he already has had a conversation with Greinke about a potential relief appearance in Game 5. Greinke pitched as a reliever in 2007, when after eight starts he was moved to the Royals' bullpen for nearly four months.
Greinke is 5-1 with a 3.62 ERA in 41 career relief appearances, picking up one save. He last pitched out of the bullpen on Aug. 20, 2007.
Roenicke: Prince focused on game, not future
MILWAUKEE -- Here's a scenario the Brewers want no part of with a decisive Game 5 of the National League Division Series looming Friday:Might this be Prince Fielder's final game with the Brewers? The question has been asked before with much more certainty in the schedule. This time, the Brewers can ensure the extension of Fielder's tenure by beating the D-backs and clinching a spot in the NL Championship Series. That would push the question of Fielder's future, his pending free agency, to a later date. "I think he's kind of beyond that a little bit," manager Ron Roenicke said. "I think the last game of the [regular] season here was a little bit emotional for him. But right now, he is so focused on what we need to do and trying to win this game so that we can go on, that I don't think that's going to come into play with him. He's locked in on what we need to do. He knows his at-bats are going to be important." Fielder, of course, did not address the possibility of playing his final home game in the moments after Game 4. He and the Brewers are focused on winning Game 5. "As a player, it's tough hearing things like that, questioning about a contract or whether you're going to come back or not," Game 5 starter Yovani Gallardo said. "He goes out there and plays. Obviously, that's the only thing he can worry about. And whatever happens, whether he stays or not, he'll know he enjoyed being here, no matter what."
Ash interested in Carpenter-Halladay matchup
MILWAUKEE -- Brewers assistant general manager Gord Ash will have a keen eye on the National League's other Game 5 on Friday night, regardless of whether the Brewers punch their ticket to the NL Championship Series earlier in the day.The late game will feature the Cardinals' Chris Carpenter against the Phillies' Roy Halladay, a dream matchup of particular interest to Ash. He was the Blue Jays' GM when Carpenter and Halladay forged a bond as Toronto teammates, two young right-handers struggling to gain their foothold in the Major Leagues. "The torch got passed from [Roger] Clemens to [Pat] Hentgen and Hentgen to those two guys, and they were very close, very similar in terms of experience," Ash said. "They came up somewhat on the same path. "Chris came up and had some initial success and faltered a bit and had to go to back to Triple-A and came back. The same is well documented with Roy. I think they competed with each other and they pushed each other. They were pretty intense and enjoyed the camaraderie off the field and pushed themselves on the field." Now they will be pushing against each other. The decisive Game 5 of the Cardinals-Phillies series is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. CT on TBS, about three and a half hours after the Brewers and D-backs begin their own Game 5 at Miller Park.
Last call
The Brewers' Nos. 3-5 hitters -- Ryan Braun, Prince Fielder and Rickie Weeks -- combined to go 10-for-22 in Games 1 and 2 at Miller Park and 3-for-23 in Games 3 and 4 at Chase Field. Just don't accuse them of pressing at the plate in the two losses."I think when people say you're pressing, that's just an excuse," Fielder said. "This is Major League Baseball -- you press anyways, this game is not easy and you're trying to do your job." The Brewers announced that Major League Baseball Commissioner Allan H. "Bud" Selig will throw out the ceremonial first pitch prior to Friday's Game 5. The Miller Park parking lots will open at 1 p.m. CT and the gates will open at 2 p.m. First pitch is scheduled for just after 4 p.m. on TBS.

I'm 21-year old male and i have a crooked nose.I Cannot BREATH through my left side and mostly i'm breathing through my mouth now. I also have sinusitis and getting pain around my left eye and left ear.I had gone steptoplasty 2 years back and it worsened my sinusitis.Will rhinoplasty helps fixing my crooked nose(outside visibility of my nose) and my BREATHING ISSUE and sinusitis ?
Will Rhinoplasty Fix my Nose Straight? and Helps It to Breath Good? (photo)
Doctor Answers (2)
Rhinoplasty can address both cosmetic and functional issues. Based on the limited picture you provided, making your nose straighter should be achievable. I recommend you consult with a facial plastic surgeon who can properly answer that question. Also, depending on the cause of your difficulty breathing, it may also help address your breathing problem as well. The fact that the septoplasty did not help your breathing does not necessarily mean that you will not benefit from additional airway surgery. There are other procedures that can often be done in conjunction with septoplasty that can help address the nasal airway. Since you have both functional and cosmetic concerns, I suggest you see a facial plastic surgeon who is double board certified in both otolaryngology - head and neck surgery as well as facial plastic surgery since they will be able to comprehensively address all of your concerns. Good luck.
crooked nose, breathing problems, sinusitis
The only way to make the diagnosis of chronic sinusitis is by obtaining a CAT scan of the sinuses to determine if there is any polyps/ infection inside the sinuses themselves. There are multiple issues that can cause breathing problems in the nose which include a deviated septum, valve collapse, allergies, and turbinate hypertrophy. Each one of these are treated differently with either medicine or surgery. A broken nose can be repaired with a rhinoplasty. All these procedures can be addressed simultaneously, under one anesthetic.

Eduardo Garcia had been on his way to becoming a TV celebrity chef when the unthinkable happened and he lost one of his most valuable kitchen tools - his hand.
But Garcia isn't letting the loss of his all-important limb derail his hopes and dreams.
Garcia visited Portland last week to be fitted for a prosthetic hand. The robotic hand is so advanced he was able to return to the kitchen the very next day.

Immigration computer system 'has caused significant problems'
The £385 million immigration case work (ICW) computer system, which aimed to improve efficiency and cut costs, has "significant problems" and, despite early successes, "has slipped by a year and is over budget", the NAO said.
Despite less being delivered than expected, the system was £28 million (12%) over its £224 million budget by the end of March and overall expected savings had been revised down to £106 million.
Some 540 requirements, previously described as "must haves", have been removed or postponed in the latest version of the system, leading to limitations, including that customers will not be able to track their applications online.
Further staff reductions before systems such as the ICW programme are implemented "may impact negatively on performance", a risk the agency acknowledges but the impact of which it "is unable to quantify", the watchdog said.

Firefighters free teenagers from bedroom
Updated 9:38am Saturday 12th October 2013 in News
FIREFIGHTERS were called out to a house in Minehead last night (October 11) after three teenagers locked themselves in a bedroom.
The home owner called the fire service just before 9pm and stated that the three friends, aged between 16 and 18, were getting "a bit panicky."
One fire engine from Minehead attended the incident at Summerland Avenue and released the teenagers by removing the bedroom door.

Out and about on Main Street, and, btw, what does a 50-year-old on a mission look like?
Well, what a thing! Coming out of the closet is now all the rage. Who knew? Certainly not me. I might not have had a closet to come out of, but, surely, had I known how simple full public disclosure would be today, I could have at least come out of, well, a drawer. A cabinet, maybe. As a woman who only likes being a woman 25 days out of each month and spends the other three bemoaning the fact I wasn't born with a penis, but who, don't get it twisted, will absolutely die the day menopause sets in. I swear.
Like, seriously? Someone should tell the ones who came out as gay recently that the bigger story would have been if they'd gone back in. Hello? Anderson, I love you. Always have. Since the moment I blessed eyes on your gloriously white hair, the mischievous twinkle in your intelligent blue eyes, the way you absolutely own a suit. Frankly, sir, I love the cut of your jib. But come on, I wasn't hanging around hoping to meet you on the street somewhere and spark the love affair of a lifetime. There was no Vanderbilt legacy in my future, I knew.
Some things you know instinctively. And Diana King. Really? Re-all-y, Diana? How about, next time, truly shocking us by admitting you love men? I mean, really? Were there people who fell over in a dead slump at that bit of news? But the coming-out party that really seemed to get lips flapping was R&B singer Frank Ocean's. Listen, he admitted via his Tumblr account that his first love was a man. Hey, so was mine. But you don't see big ballers like Russell Simmons and 'em commending me on how I "changed the game".
(Well, OK, so maybe I had no game to change. Still. When am I going to get my very own celebrity endorsement, dammit, is what I want to know.)
I really don't mean to be making light of what very much could be more than a mere publicity stunt. After all, hip hop, with its grandiloquent paeans to crass excess against an unremitting heterosexual backdrop, isn't known for its public embrace of "alternative" lifestyles. You've seen the videos. The men are always over-the-top macho and the women, well, the less said about the women, the better.
It may seem I'm mocking these 'newly' out celebrities, but in all seriousness I'm glad people are finding the courage to declare their sexuality. I firmly believe that if these conversations were happening before, the HIV predicament would not have reached the critical mass it has today; there can be no doubt that down-low creeping is lighter fluid for its spread. Let's face it. Today, the public's role models are no longer preachers, teachers and medical practitioners. Sadly, it's celebrities and media whores, um, personalities. Basically, anyone who's held a mike up to their mouths (and I'm not just speaking euphemistically now) or happened by a red carpet. It is what it is. Today, celebrities are the new gods of the arena, it's that simple.
This, however, isn't a meditation on gayness, per se. I've really just been thinking about how the world has changed since I touched down on it. And, what with Jamaica 50 celebrations almost in full cry, which patriotic Jamaican hasn't been thinking about how our little slice of paradise has changed since full free? We're all in contemplative mood around these parts, aren't we? While we're at it: there's been much debate about the proposed removal of the Queen as head of state. All I'll say on the subject is that even though I'm an independent woman who no longer depends on parents for assistance, when I turn 50, it will still be good to know that my dad is a fall-back plan, just in case. Sue me.
In some ways, we've done well for a 50-year-old independent nation — I've never been prouder to be Jamaican. In some, we've dropped the ball. There are those among us who are highly critical of the areas in which we mess up. And, indeed, there are some things that we're doing wrong that are absolutely inexcusable. The perennial problems with insufficient water in our messed-up dams, is just one example. It cannot be that this is an unsolvable problem. Because, as much as there are many of us for whom water tanks have become a feature of everyday life, there are equally as many who don't have tanks and who must take baths out of teacups each morning before they go off to their individual pursuits. It's positively scandalous, all these many years later.
Then there's that revelation in this week's SO celebrity interview with the actor Lyriq Bent, who makes me feel glad to be a woman, even on those wretched days I feel like ripping out my ovaries. (Good job, Miss Heather, on this fabulous series. We're absolutely inspired by these Jamaicans on a mission. Who knew there were so many of them on foreign TV? And thank you, NMW, for always, always creating a space for us to see that we can all dream bigger, because there are so many who are doing so and, despite the odds, actually living their dreams.)
Anyway, according to Bent, the film he most recently wrapped, Home Again, about Jamaican deportees should have been shot in our island home. Makes sense, right? Home. Again. However, because of foot-dragging on our end, the film's producers were forced to look elsewhere for locations. Guess which twin-island republic rose to the challenge? That's right. Trinidad and Tobago, which is also celebrating 50 years of Independence this year. It's called opting for opportunity. The truth is that traditional industries for Caribbean countries have been failing. Our salvation lies in non-traditional areas like film, entertainment, health tourism, and the like. People on a mission understand this and don't squander opportunities.
But I don't want to dwell on negativity. Not as we look forward to the nice-nice time we're anticipating come the Olympics and Independence. It's not that they don't abound. They do. We have many other Sundays to bring them up and, hopefully, tackle them, so that in another 50, things will be a whole lot better for those who're still here.

Killington, Vermont - December 29, 2009
Vermont State Police detectives say massive internal injuries are to blame for a snowboarder's death at Killington Resort on Christmas Eve.
Twenty-year-old Alex Westphal of Cheshire, Conn., was found unconscious on an expert trail around noon Thursday. He was pronounced dead at the hospital. Now detectives say it appears Westphal hit an object like a pole or a signpost, but he was wearing a helmet.
Westphal was on vacation with his family when he died and even sent his parents a cell phone picture of the mountain about ten minutes before the accident.

Google Caught Tracking The Browsing Habits Of Safari Users, Says SEO Company SachaMango Media
PR Log
- Feb 28, 2012 - A code loophole appears to exist in the Safari browser because Apple automatically blocks third party cookies by default – and Google along with several other advertisers have been caught out by a researcher at Stanton who broke the story to the
Wall Street Journal
Jonathan Mayer discovered that Google was making use of
, an invisible container that allows content from one website to be embedded within another. Through the iframe, Google was able to receive data about whether an individual was using the Safari browser and insert an invisible form into the container. This was then submitted by Google to Safari, which was fooled into thinking the user had submitted the form and allowed cookies. The user knew nothing about this and assumed their privacy settings were as stringent as they had set them.
The code Google placed into the iframes were originally designed to allow features such as
buttons to function when the user was logged in to Google services. However, it seems that the cookie was placed even when the user was not logged in despite the cookie privacy settings at their highest, and Google among others have exploited it for their advertisers. Even the advertisers were able to set their own cookies as a result.
Rachel Whetstone, Senior Vice President, Communications and Public Policy at Google, said: "The Journal mischaracterizes what happened and why. We used known Safari functionality to provide features that
Google users had enabled. It's important to stress that these advertising cookies do not collect personal information.
"Unlike other major browsers, Apple's Safari browser blocks third-party cookies by default. However, Safari enables many web features for its users that rely on third parties and third-party cookies, such as
buttons. Last year, we began using this functionality to enable features for signed-in Google users on Safari who had opted to see personalized ads and other content--such as the ability to "+1" things that interest them.
"We didn't anticipate that this would happen. It's important to stress that, just as on other browsers, these advertising cookies do not collect personal information."
A spokesperson for
SEO Company
SachaMango Media
, said: "This revelation from the Wall Street Journal explains what many users of Safari browsers have been seeing for some time - conspicuously accurate advertising based on the sites they visit even though they have the highest privacy settings.
"While it is likely that Google came upon this by accident, it set out to capitalise on it for its advertisers rather than deal with it in an ethical way, and it should have to face the consequences. This has now cast serious doubt on Google's
repeated assurances
that it is not engaged in Big Brother monitoring techniques."
Web Design
spokesperson also commented by saying; "Despite the size of Google and the amount of intelligence housed within its walls, it's struggling to see that people have digital rights and that trampling on them is not ethical and
could be illegal
. No-one from Google has yet issued an apology for what its done, simply issued a somewhat exasperated statement with a logical explanation that insinuates we're all being too sensitive about something quite small.
"The key to whether a company is ethical is what it does when no-one is watching. And now we know what Google does! Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should."
"The US firm, Consumer Watchdog, has filed a complaint with the
Federal Trade Commission
about Google's unfair and deceptive actions and asking for immediate action against the company."

Now with 30% more RED!
- I Paid: ~$1.99 (with a coupon) for a 3-pack at Target. I bought these a while ago so I don't know for sure.
- Description: Soft Center; Red Fruit, Lime; 15 Pieces; Artificially Flavored/Sugarfree Gum
I normally stick with Orbit gum (Citrusmint is my favorite) whenever I go out to buy gum, but I figured I'd try something new, especially if I can get it for $1.00 off with a coupon. I didn't have to waste any time pondering which flavor to get, as this was the only Mentos gum available at the Target I went to. Apparently for this review, I will be writing about Red Fruit (WTF?!?!) with a Lime Soft Center (.....ok again, WTF?!?!)
Before I tell you how it tastes, I have to indulge in a random thought (isn't that what this whole "blog" business is FOR?) Do you ever get like, food deja vu? It's like when you smell or eat something, and you can totally place it with something that happened a long time ago. It sounds sort of weird but if/when it happens, you'll know it, haha. Well, Mentos to me totally took me back to this day camp that I went to one summer when I was in elementary school. I was allowed to get one box/display pack of Mentos rolls to eat for the summer, although they never lasted that long. I'd trade them for different flavors that other kids brought into camp, and it was an all-around Mentomania festival those days. So, when I opened this tube of Mentos gum (more on that later) and shook out a few, I totally got like, a flashback to summer camp with all the Mentos I ate and traded with others. Weird, right??
Ok, back to the Mentos at hand. Remember that time I said I opened the tube of Mentos gum? Yeah, like 10 seconds ago? (slightly altered Family Guy/Timeshare boat reference, anyone catch that?) I swear to you, if we want to have real child-proof, adult-proof, everyone-proof bottles, all drugs should come in these Mentos gum tubes. It was the kind where you pull off a tab from the side and then pop open (much like a plastic milk jug), but I had a really hard time opening this. I had to resort to jamming a scissor blade across the tab in order to get enough off to pull on. Maybe it was a fluke and/or I'm an idiot? When I open the 2nd and 3rd tubes I will find out.
The Mentos gum looks like squared off, smaller, thicker versions of regular Mentos- like as if someone tried to make Mentos from scratch and couldn't quite get the shape right. Allegedly there is a lime "goo" center but as you can see from the piece above, it's either non-existant or off-center and I just didn't get it with my bite. It's like a Chiclet in terms of texture- hard shell outside, chewy gum inside. The elusive "Red" fruit flavor doesn't last very long, which might be why they give you a handful of them in a tube- so you can chew multiple pieces without unwrapping each one, like regular gum. Not to mention- Hi, what is the actual FRUIT being used aside from being RED?! Off the top of my head I think of Strawberries, Red apples, Watermelon, and Tomatoes- turns out I got 1 right- the only fruit juices listed are from Lemon, Strawberry, Raspberry, and Blackcurrant... ok only 2 of these are even RED!!!
Final verdict? Thanks, but no thanks. It tasted like sugary fruit syrup one minute, and then bland wads of boring after about 5 minutes. The tubes are cute- I might reuse them to keep other candy in for easy transport in my purse. Now, if I brought these into summer camp? That would be a different story- I'd totally make bank trading on these brightly colored, allegedly goo-filled Mentos balls. Alas, alas.

Springfield College Students Experience Renaissance Dance Abroad
Cynthia Nazzaro, Ed.D., professor of dance, is teaching a five-week course, "Passion, Power, and Creative Process: Unmasking Dance in the Italian Renaissance," to 10 Springfield College students at the Umbra Institute in Perugia, Italy.
The course introduces students to the historical and artistic origins of dance as a theater art with the focus on its development during the Italian Renaissance. The students are learning about Italian folk and court dance forms; ballet and contemporary forms; and Renaissance art, theater design, music, and costumes.
One of the highlights of Nazzaro's course is a field trip to Florence, where students visited the Uffizi Gallery and the Boboli Gardens.
"(The visit to) Florence enhanced what we were learning in the classroom, giving us more of the background of Renaissance dance," said dance major Sarah Perry. "In class we were relating the development of the art to the development of the dance during the Renaissance, so it was really cool to see it all in person."
Nazzaro agreed: "The students were able to apply the principles of art that come to us through Renaissance innovations [such as] Lorenzo de Medici and Botticelli, as well as such artworks as La Primavera at the Uffizi and the garden architecture of the Boboli. We link these elements directly to the dances we are learning and the dance history we are studying."
The Renaissance Dance Program is hosted by the Umbra Institute, an American study abroad program located in the central Italian city of Perugia.
