Get to Know Gaia She's A Porn Star And Loves……
Listen to Gaia on the Tony Batman Talk Show and on the Planet Platypus Show
(Hollywood, CA)- Tony Batman's A Entertainment News - No hype is needed to describe the sexual prowess of rising porn starlet Gaia who like Cher and Madonna needs only one name. Born in Korea, the thirty-year-old is a director's dream because she requires no instruction on the act of sex as her entire life is wrapped up with kinky thoughts and the desire to get laid.
"I've always been sexually active and I honestly can't go an hour without thinking about having sex," the tiny girl with the bombastic breasts said.
In fact, directors and producers are getting their money's worth when they hire the Minnesota-raised exhibitionist for their movies. Following a particularly dirty sex scene for Hustler where she squirted like an angry rain cloud, Gaia was booked for a prime role in Adam & Eve Pictures Grease XXX a Parody directed by Will Ryder.
"I shot Gaia for Asian Sex Academy and she lit the joint on fire so when I needed a girl to play a super horny Rydell student and participate in a sizzling four-way sex scene, she was the first name that popped up," Ryder remarked.
"Oh my God that scene in Grease was so hot I'm really proud to be in that movie," Gaia recalled.
"I was super horny and my first scene was in this auto body shop where the greasers worked and we did it next to a beautiful blue 1950s Cadillac and on the dirty garage floor. I didn't care who was fucking me I was just begging for dick and pussy."
What made that shoot and Gaia's performance extra special, was that following her sex scene, she packed her bags, received her check and began to say her goodbyes when suddenly she begged the director to allow her to have another sex scene before she took the long drive back to her home in Las Vegas where she also works as a dancer.
"Even after having group-sex for two hours I was still so horny we adlibbed a quick scene in the school hallway where this guy blew a load all over my face and in my hair. It was exactly what I needed before I got in my car and drove away."
Gaia's name does not mean slut in Korean but actually is a character from a series of teen novels she read called Fearless and this porn star is exactly that.
With only a select few big-time Asian performers getting headlines, Gaia has quickly emerged as a magnificent sex performer ready and willing to participate in any sexual act. In fact on set the other day, the sexy brunette with the gorgeous butt-length straight dark hair was anally fisted during her scene with Dana DeArmond.
"Oh my God we didn't even plan to fist but the sex was going so well and before I knew it she had worked all of her fingers in my butt and then her entire fist just slid in. It felt so good I loved it."
Extreme sex is becoming somewhat of a sport for the Asian girl who spent her formative years battling extreme roof-top snow drifts and blistering wind chills in Minneapolis.
"I'm glad I don't live in the cold anymore because I like to be naked," Gaia remarked while relaxing over a Mocha Frappucino at Starbucks. "I'm a very physical person and if I'm not having sex I'm either stripping or boxing," she confessed.
Boxing? Her toned body affirms the notion that she spends a lot of time in the gym where she actually works out under the tutelage of the world famous boxing trainer Roger Mayweather.
"I've been going to his gym now for a while and I really enjoy boxing because it's almost like a sexual release for me even though I don't have sex in the gym," she joked.
The girl is quite serious having been licensed by USA Boxing for four years but she prefers training and sparring to competitive boxing for which she has a respectable fifty-fifty record.
"I prefer making love to girls and guys as opposed to beating them up," she said with a smile before getting into her car to drive off to another adult movie set. "Oh did I tell you I'm doing my first gangbang as a Christmas present? Bye."
With that, Gaia was off but when not in Los Angeles getting banged on camera, fans can find her dancing at Spearmint Rhino in Las Vegas. Currently represented by Adult Talent Managers Los Angeles for professional bookings, Gaia is active with her fans on twitter @gaialovescock Fans can also chat with her on the telephone using Verified Call at http://vrfd.co/Gaia
This is one sexy Asian girl that is eager to please but fully capable of knocking you out.

As we see more and more stories coming out of Moore, Oklahoma, we remember the process it took for folks in Joplin and Duquesne to recover 2-years ago.
"It's just about rebuilding and helping them out in the best possible way" says Diana Badley of Calvalry Chapel in Joplin.
Badley is a member of Calvary Chapel in Joplin, a church that was also a distribution center after the May 22nd 2011 tornado. After the tornado more than a thousand guests came in with applications needing specific items a reason why now church members want to help Oklahoma. The members are paying it forward with these T-shirts printed by G & S Graphics, at $20 dollars a piece, $15 dollars of the proceeds will benefit Moore.
"Okay we're going to take the money from the shirt and we meet a family and they lost everything in the storm, one organization came along beside them and helped build them a house, so we go we meet them we hear their story and then we say we'll furnish them for you, we've raised enough money to help furnish your house and we do it all in the name of Jesus Christ, it's not our own, it's all glory to god, it's just what we feel is best" says Badley.
The United Way of Southwest Missouri and Southeast Kansas is also helping out by collecting monetary donations...
"Their request was for us to collect financial donations and gift cards and we'll facilitate sending those directly to the United Way so they can go through their 100 plus agencies and give it to the families that are most in need and most in crisis" says Kate Massey.
Director of community impact Kate Massey says that it's a good idea to hold off on donating things like used clothing and blankets and to wait until traffic dies down to volunteer. That just like Joplin helping the people of Oklahoma, will be a long term process.
"It's wonderful seeing a community really wanting to pay it forward, that's the next beautiful thing, that's where we are in our recovery process and that we've hit the two year mark and this is definitely the week of remembrance, but seeing the community come forward in such a way to pay it forward to the next community, is amazing" says Massey.

text: JONESBORO, La. (KNOE 8 News) - Local up and coming rapper Lil Snupe was laid to rest in his hometown of Jonesboro.Family and friends are still mourning the loss of 18-year-old Addarren Ross and many gathered for a funeral at Jonesboro-Hodge High School. Several people tell KNOE 8 News that they are remembering the young artist as more than just a rapper."He was just a kid with a dream," says Doniquia Smith, "and he just wanted to get out of here. That's all there is to it."Friends of Ross say he was a small town kid with big time dreams. He signed to Meek Mill's Dreamchaser label earlier this year, and fellow rappers say Ross, known as Lil Snupe, was on his way to stardom."We just come to show support and love," says rapper New City, "Lil was a fool, he did his thing!"So many at the funeral, knew Ross before the fame, like friend Caitlyn Anderson."He was a real laid back person to be around," says Anderson, "he always liked to crack jokes, just mess with type of stuff, like pull pranks on you, his whole life."It was an emotional day for people as they said goodbye to the young artist."I feel like you take a child's life...it was precious and it hurts that we have to bury him today," says Smith, "You took away a friend, a son, and an icon to a lot of people."Whether they called him Lil Snupe, or just Addarren, many say he was a rising star they'll not soon forget.


text: You know, I know part of this is my own laziness in that I have never gotten around to studying and actually taking the tests, but it kind of miffs me that Microsoft releases an OS and because it is not selling as well as they would like (or whatever the reason is) they retire their tests in favor of the new NOS that is less than 1 year old. I know I am just ranting and raving, but it just annoys me. There are a lot of places that are going to stay on NT4 for a while, until there is a valid reason to upgrade. Am I just fuming because I now have to work my rear end off to take the tests before March?

BASF has decided to shut down its German biotechnology center and move all operations to Raleigh, North Carolina. The company will also halt all further development of seed specifically targeted to the European arena.
BASF made the decision after receiving a poor reception for its genetically modified potatoes. The company spent a "high two-digit million amount" on developing the potatoes. Stefan Marcinowski, a BASF board member in charge of plant biotechnology said, "There is still a lack of acceptance for this technology in many parts of Europe from the majority of consumers, farmers and politicians. It does not make business sense to continue investing in products exclusively for cultivation in this market."

(WMC-TV) – A teenage girl is in critical condition at The MED after a shooting moved from a church to a street corner where she was walking home from school with some friends.
Now police are looking for the shooter.
AJ Johnson said the shots that hit the girl as she walked home scared everyone in the neighborhood.
"It sounded like pow pow pow pow, so loud," said Johnson. "All the kids went inside the house. Old people were looking out the window. Everybody was scared they were shaking."
Police said the teenager was with a group of girls at Chuck and Wingate Cove near Sheffield High when someone in a PT Cruiser that was possibly black, started shooting.
Police checked out a PT cruiser at the end of Wingate Cove.
"This is my cousin's car so they couldn't be looking for her car cause she is at work," Lisa Howard said.
The shooting apparently started near Olivet Baptist Church then spilled onto the church campus.
"One of the young people ran into the church and someone fired some shots at them," said Olivet Baptist Church Pastor, Dr. Eugene Gibson.
Dr. Gibson said it was two shots and that dozens of young men were in the gym when it all happened.
"We're just grateful no one was hurt here and these young men can continue to come to the gym and make a difference in their lives," Gibson said.
Neighbors who live near the shooting aren't sure what to think.
"It's really awful," Johnson said. "I have a 5-year-old grandson here. I am afraid to let him come out here in the yard and play."
The girl who was shot was moved from Le Bonheur Children's Hospital to The MED after her condition worsened. Police said at this point they have no suspects.

Business is booming for many cities across East Texas.
As you look through the City of Tyler, cranes are dotting the skyline, showing signs of progress.
Cranes are working on the Smith County jail, Fair parking garage and Tyler Junior College nursing building.
Fred Peters with Tyler Junior College said the project for his campus represents a growth in students wanting to come to school.
"We're starting to see there is a real need for workforce programs where people can come and take a two-year degree -- maybe a one-year -- and go right to work and make a good living," Peters said.
The college says they plan to build a new dorm facility near the completed nursing building, and plan to start work on an energy center on their West Tyler Campus.
Both the Tyler Junior College and downtown Tyler projects have completion dates this year.
The construction projects in downtown and surrounding areas are not the only ones. Information shared by the City of Tyler shows there's a bit of building boom going on in the city. In 2013, there were 64 new commercial building permits issued, a 20 percent increase from 2012.
Tom Mullins with the Tyler Economic Development Corporation said the multiple projects say a lot about the city's dedication to growth.
"It would take most communities 12 years to just get one of them put together," Mullins said. "This says a lot about Tyler and their commitment to, not only the current growth spurt, but to long-term growth."
Mullins said the growth not only applies to Tyler, but to the East Texas region, as well.
"Longview and Kilgore and east of us are doing very well because of the energy sector activity," Mullins said.
He said he expects the growth in 2014 to meet or exceed last year's numbers.
The Tyler Economic Development Corporation said Tyler is on the short list of a few companies that could add hundreds of jobs.

Gov. Walker picked to serve on jury
Gov. Scott Walker
MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Gov. Scott Walker is part of a Milwaukee County jury that's hearing a personal injury lawsuit.
The governor wasn't picked to hear a murder trial, but was selected late Monday for the jury that will hear Carri and Michael Natarelli's personal injury lawsuit.
The governor says he has been called for jury duty twice before, once while he was serving in the state Assembly and once when he was Milwaukee County executive, but was not chosen for the cases.
The Journal Sentinel says Judge Kevin Martens told jurors the trial is expected to last two days. Walker's home is in the Milwaukee County community of Wauwatosa.

Episode 14 of TWIB '77 features historic base stealing, historic indifference to the pain of others, and Ralph Houk crowned as King of the Crazy Managers!
It has been a depressing month if you're a Yankees fan. A lot of history has left us, with Ralph Houk being the latest. Rather than write a full-on obituary profile of the player, manager, and...
PETTITTE FORDING FORD With today's victory, Andy Pettitte tied Whitey Ford for career wins. The two now sit at 60th on the all-time list with 236, sitting just behind a couple of Yankees alumni,...
"It's impossible to look back at Fidrych's remarkable 1976 -- knowing what we know now about pitch counts and such things -- and not cringe at the way manager Ralph Houk abused him. Of course, nobody was counting pitches in 1976, but even so it's hard to believe a manager would allow a rookie to throw five extra-inning games. Five! Or how about this stretch: From July 29th to August 29th, The Bird threw a nine-inning game, a seven-inning game, a nine-inning game, another nine-inning game, another nine-inning game, a 10-inning game, a nine-inning game and an 11 1/3 inning game -- each one on three-days rest. Imagine that: Fidrych threw 73 1/3 innings and seven complete games in a month. To give you a comparison, K-Rod threw 68 1/3 innings all last year. To give you a comparison, Johan Santana has thrown nine complete games in his career."From Joe Posnanski's tribute to Mark Fidrych for SI.com

- Have £1,000 - Just For Being Good
- Posted 28 months ago by Jack Lowe · culture · 9723 Views
Apologies for telling you about this after it happened, but yesterday a well-meaning millionaire was in London handing out gifts of £1,000 to people they thought looked worthy of a bit of extra money. In return, all they asked was that they did something good with it such as making a charity donation, helping someone less fortunate, or just to make someone a little bit happier.
The anonymous person was lucky enough to suddenly come into more money than they would ever need last year and, after spending a chunk of it booking a space flight with Virgin Galactic, they became increasingly embraced about blowing what was essentially a life changing amount of money on themselves. A few days later they cancelled the booking.
Speaking through the project's website (Wearelucky), they say:"I promised myself that I'd do something great with that space flight money. Something to really make a difference. I wanted to find a cool way to give the cash away - spread it around - but at the same time retain some kind of affinity with the benefactors. I thought long and hard about how to make an impact in a way that I could be involved in and would feel good about. I wrestled with this for ages and the more I thought about it, the more difficult it was. That was how Wearelucky came about. I decided to pass on my good luck to others by giving away £1,000 every day."
For more information on the project, the millionaire's back story, and what people have spent the money on so far - head over to www.we-are-lucky.com.
- How odd. Did everyone get £1,000, or did someone get a lot more? 'A life changing amount', for whom, someone with only a few more hours left to live? 'after spending a chunk of it booking a space flight with Virgin Galactic', last time I checked a flight to space was £125,000...
- Chris Posted 28 months ago · 76 Reply
- I'm sorry there seems to be some Space flights cost $200,000 each, i cancelled my booking and decided to spend the rest of my money in a better way, of which this is part and which i think is making lots of people smile. I know there are lots of ways to do something good but i couldn't decide what to do so i chose to let others decide, parcel up the cash into GBP1000 chunks, or there abouts in other currencies, and see what happens. I think its lovely what the people have done but i can understand your concerns.

Government Unchecked:
The False Problem of "Judicial Activism" and the Need for Judicial Engagement
By Clark Neily and Dick M. Carpenter II
September 2011
The past five decades have seen a relentless expansion in the size of government and a sharp increase in the number of liberty-stifling laws and regulations at every level. Despite this explosion of political power, commentators and scholars of all ideological stripes appear to worry more about the supposed growth of judicial power.
Those who decry so-called "judicial activism" complain that the Supreme Court too frequently strikes down the acts of elected representatives, infringes on the prerogatives of the executive branch or upends settled law by overturning its own precedents.
This report puts those claims to the test with empirical data and concludes that we suffer not from rampant judicial activism, but rather from too little judicial engagement.
The Supreme Court rarely strikes down government enactments or overturns its own precedents—and this is consistently true over the past 50-plus years.
The years examined in this report saw more than a million federal and state laws passed and more than 20,000 regulations adopted. Many of these restrain liberty in significant ways. Decades of the Supreme Court's abdicating its duty to enforce the Constitution have made this growth in the size and scope of government possible.
More judicial "restraint" is not the answer. Judges engaging in meaningful review of constitutional claims and the facts behind them is the answer.

Today on espn 1000 (in chicago) the bobcats coach was a guest on one of the morning shows and he talked about how he was surprised that the Heat dont run Pick and Roll plays utilizing wade and james. It seemed like a real good thought.
Then I find this nice article from Dean Oliver, a fairly smart guy, and he discusses what he thinks the real problem of the heat is (over dribbling) and some suggestions. Its a good read, and i still think the idea of wade and james running a pick and roll can be a deadly weapon. If teams go under the screen then you give wade too much room to get a head of steam and with him and lebron going towards the basket the defense is going to collapse. If you go over the screen then you are putting your big man on a matchup nightmare with lebron.
Anyway good read, thought y'all would enjoy it. Discuss

Should you be notified if a sex offender moves in next door? Missouri lawmakers are talking about requiring realtors to warn sellers and neighbors when a sex offender is a prospective home buyer.
Sex offenders would first have to inform the real estate agent of their offenses. Then it's up to the agent to inform the public.
And, some home-owners and agents say they don't agree with how the measures would be enforced.
"I can find out on my own if there's a sex offender. So, as me as a parent, that's my job. I don't need the government forcing someone else to do more on their job that I'm supposed to be doing anyway," said Monroe City Father John Quinn.
Quinn, father of 5, says he already keeps up with registered sex offenders in his area and says that's not a real estate agent's job.
"Now your making the real estate agent's liable," said Quinn.
And, that's exactly how Realtor Debbie Kendrick feels.
"Asking us to rely on a sex offender to tell us the truth as to whether or not they're on the register, that's a crap-shoot," said Kendrick.
Kendrick, who is not only a real estate agent, but also a grandmother, thinks about the what if's.
What if she sold a house to a registered sex offender and that person re-offended?
"Emotional, personal guilt to deal with," said Kendrick. "And, then you throw a law on it where someone could sue us because we didn't do that."
Kendrick adds, "Unless the laws in our state allow us to know the level of infraction by the sex offender it will be difficult for us as realtors to take on that responsibility of being accountable for someone else's actions."
The Missouri Association of Realtors says it has concerns about the proposal.
The bill's sponsor, Rep. Charlie Davis said he is not pushing for it to become law this year. He says he's just trying to spark discussion about protecting children.

One of the biggest stories for D.C. United fans so far this season has been Ben Olsen & Co.'s policy of riding the hot hand. The assumed starting goalkeeper for most of the MLS season this year, Bill Hamid, has only logged 90 out of a possible 900 minutes so far. When Hamid left the nation's capital for the train-wreck that was the USMNT Olympic qualifying tournament, backup keep Joe Willis took the field and stringed together some quality games between the pipes that ended up keeping Hamid on the bench, even after recovering from a minor leg injury upon returning to the team.
But now, here we are in May and the heir to Tim Howard's throne appointed by Jurgen Klinsmann himself, isn't playing. Take a quick gander through and you can see that Hamid still has a love for EPL side West Bromwich Albion, who Hamid spent some time with during the offseason on a training trial. Not many people realize this, but D.C. almost didn't sign Hamid at all; Hamid was linked to a move to Scottish supergiants Celtic F.C. So the concept of Hamid moving on across the pond isn't a strange one and its one that D.C. United fans have had on the back of their minds for a while. So what goes into play when selling a player overseas? What different factors goes into the decision? Let's investigate after the jump.
First off, there's always the possibility that Hamid gets another shot, performs as well as we all know he can, and holds onto the starting spot with an iron grip. For the purpose of this game of "what if?", lets assume Willis holds onto the starting position.
Hamid could put in a transfer request during the summer window or at the end of the 2012 season, forcing the front office's hand and trying to get the best deal they can get for the 21 year old. I wouldn't necessarily blame Hamid either; the folks at West Brom were impressed with Hamid, commenting that it's impressing the 21-year old had broken onto the national team already and that "he's very athletic". I think WBA would love to sign Hamid and the finances wouldn't be a problem for the top-flight side. What could be a problem for United, however, is the fact that Hamid isn't playing regularly. If Hamid had returned from Olympic qualifying and started every game since, putting in consistently great saves and notching several shut-outs, his transfer price could be sky high. Since he's been sitting on the bench though, if nothing changes, his perceived value has got to go down at least some. If a move to Europe is definitely on the horizon for Hamid, then ideally it would be after a Goalkeeper of the Year season or something close to it.
Then there's always the possibility that the D.C. front office decide that they're sitting on a potential gold mine and he's sitting on the bench. Might as well try to move him and cash in on his transfer fee. Since the team would be electing to sell instead of being forced to sell by the player in this situation, they could probably get a higher fee. That kind of move would show a lot of faith in Joe Willis, who showed he wasn't infallible against Houston by essentially letting in a second goal by Will Bruin. Not to say that Hamid is perfect, but he has commanded more trust from the fans then Willis has.
Personally, I attribute Willis' success to the D.C. back line, a much needed improvement from the 2011 squad. Hamid has only played one game with offseason additions Emiliano Dudar and Robbie Russell. While Willis has made some great saves, we have no idea if Hamid would make the same saves. One thing we do know - Jurgen Klinsmann and the rest of the USMNT coaching staff have seen something in Hamid that they like and they want around. Maybe I'm naive, but he's good enough for the national team, he's good enough for D.C. United.
Granted, this is all over-analysis and speculation. We all know that Olsen has a lot of choices he needs to makes regarding the D.C. Starting XI. But how long with a national team member accept a role on the bench? I don't see Hamid going anywhere until the end of the season, if he goes anywhere at all. Now, we also have to worry about keeping Joe Willis, who has proved he's maybe the best "backup" goalkeeper in the league. Willis could very well be a sure starter at another MLS club. He's had a taste of the big time and if Hamid does retake his starting role we could see Willis opt for an offseason move to a team that can give him what he wants - 34 starts in a season. Here's to keeping both for years to come.

PG Derrick Wilson Commits to Marquette.
Scout's Evan Daniels reports that 6'1" point guard Derrick Wilson, from Lakeville, Connecticut, has committed to Marquette. Wilson is the second player to sign for 2011, following wing Juan Anderson, and he's joining a crowded backcourt, but that's a problem for another day. Cracked Sidewalks has some thoughts on the signing here.

Well, the Maryland women's basketball team took a step backward last night in their 88-43 win over in state foe Towson. After beating UVA by 25, last Thursday, then doubling that margin of victory by taking down George Mason by 50, last night's margin failed to double that of the previous game in fact losing five points dropping to forty-five. It seems the coaching staff will have something to work on in practice this week.
Seriously, Maryland took to the road and came out and once again completely dominated a lesser opponent – this time on Towson's home court. The Tigers took their only lead of the game at 2-0 when they scored the first bucket. The Terps promptly rolled off 13 of the next 15 points with Alyssa Thomas continuing her hot play by dropping in seven of those points including a rare three point jumper against Towson's zone. The home team seemed determined to apply the same strategy employed by SC State in last Saturday's men's game – running 15-20 seconds off the shot clock on every possession before getting into any semblance of an offense. The tactic worked a bit as the Tigers were twice able to close within 6 with the last of those coming at 17-11 with about 14 minutes left in the half. However, Maryland turned up the defensive pressure and went on a 16-2 run to stretch the lead to twenty. The Terps managed this despite a slow start from Tianna Hawkins who got in early foul trouble picking up her second foul with about nine and a half minutes remaining and taking to the bench for the remainder of the half. Maryland led by as many as 25 but Towson closed the half with a three-point shot to narrow the gap to twenty-two as the Terrapins took a 43-21 lead into the locker room a far cry from their 2009-10 season visit to Towson where they trailed 34-27 in a game they would eventually drop 67-55.
The teams traded baskets for the first few minutes of the second half with Towson continuing their deliberate style of play but the Terps again turned up the heat on both ends of the floor running off twenty-one consecutive points over a five minute stretchto take their lead from 47-25 to 68-25 with just under ten minutes remaining. T-Hawk would help the Terps maintain their comfortable margin. After scoring only two points and pulling down a single rebound in the first half, she would finish the game with 14 points and 7 boards despite playing only 18 minutes. Thomas led the Terps in scoring with 23 and added 13 rebounds to follow up Saturday's triple-double with a double-double. Reigning ACC freshman of the week, Tierney Pfirman led Maryland with 8 assists. The Terps again shared the ball well with 20 assists on 32 baskets. Katie Rutan and Alicia DeVaughn joined Thomas and Hawkins in double figures with 16 and 12 respectively. The 16 points was a season high for Rutan. Maryland out rebounded Towson 47-29 and held the Tigers to 29% shooting allowing 16 baskets while forcing 19 turnovers. The Terps break for exams before traveling to Delaware to face the Blue Hens a week from Thursday.

I was on the phone yesterday with a prospective client who expressed concern from her board about losing control. "I know that we need to eventually start blogging and tweeting," she said. "but our board members are concerned about losing control." She went on to describe what I think are extremely valid concerns:
- Social media will open the flood gates to criticism about the organization.
- Social media will take away their control over the brand image.
- They won't be able to control the resource requirements needed to do it right.
After listening to her concerns, I half-jokingly asked: "What if we showed them that they won't lose any more control than they have now – no matter how much they dive into social media?"
"What do you mean?", she asked.
Loss of control is a non-issue
I went on to explain that, for the most part, the issue of control has not been effected by the advent of social media.
Potential donors still have complete control over two things:
- Whether they choose to donate money to your non-profit or not.
- What they say to their friends about your non-profit.
And likewise, non-profits still have control over many things:
- The price of their products (donations and how they are spent).
- Who buys their products (channels of fundraising).
- How they treat their or donors.
- How they treat their employees.
- How much value they create in their community.
->Also see visual.
Only the volume has changed
The only thing that's different on both sides is that the volume has been cranked up to ten. A bad experience now gets posted on YouTube. And a great experience gets retweeted.
How companies can control social media
A customer's experience of a product is largely controlled by the company. And even in the case where a customer has a crap experience because of a "bad apple" employee or an honest mistake, the company still has complete control over making things right. In this sense, companies have a substantial ability to "control" what people say about them.
For some organizations though, it might be easier to blame social media than to admit losing control over the business.

Accounting students' expectations and transition experiences of supervised work experience

Political and economic discourses position employability as a responsibility of higher education, which utilise mechanisms such as supervised work experience (SWE) to embed employability into the undergraduate curriculum. However, sparse investigation of students' contextualised experiences of SWE results in little being known about the mechanisms through which students derive employability benefits from SWE. The aim of this study is to examine the impact of students' expectation and conception of workplace learning on their transition into SWE. Analysis of accounting students' experiences reveal two broad conceptions of workplace learning, the differing impacts of which on transition experience are explored using existing learning transfer perspectives. Students displaying the more common 'technical' conception construct SWE as an opportunity to develop technical, knowledge-based expertise and abilities that prioritize product-based or cognitive learning transfer. Students with an 'experiential' conception were found to construct SWE primarily as an experience through which the development of personal skills and abilities beyond technical expertise are prioritized using process-based or socio-cultural learning transfer. Further data analysis suggests that these two learning transfer approaches have differing impacts on students' employability development which may indicate a need for universities to consider how to develop appropriate student expectations of and approaches to SWE and meaningful support for students' SWE transition.

SALISBURY, Md. - The Christian Shelter of Salisbury works to combat homelessness in our area. "Over the last several years, as I've worked with the homeless shelter in the area, they've said and shared with me the sad story that often the people they have to turn away are women with children," President of the Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore Spicer Bell.
After three years of hard work and a lot of help from community volunteers, they open up eight new family units, a new women's dorm and a laundry room. "The new facility accommodates up to 80 people. That's 30 more spaces for women, children and families in need of emergency shelter. Their mission? To help people get back on their feet in a relatively short period of time. "The biggest challenge is to see folks change when they go out of here. That they're a little different - that they have a little different sense of who they are and what their lives are about," Shelter Administrator Reverend Jim Barnes said.
For more than 30 years, the shelter has seen the fruits of their labor and continue to make a lasting impact on the community. "Over the years we've had quite a few people who once were guests of the shelter who have come back and volunteered. Their life has progressed to a point of stability where they can begin to give back and they remember this juncture in their life where things being to turn and want to give back here," Board Member David Downes said.
Reverend Barnes tells us future plans are to expand the shelter to facilitate a long-term program, where people would be allowed to stay for a 4 to 6 month period of time.

After visiting the Discovery Science Center, we went to have lunch at Polly's Pies.
When we first arrived, a man asked how many was in our party and then left for several minutes to talk to the manager about something before returning and seating us.
We were waiting for quite a while before the man returned, and he proceeded to direct us toward our table. He didn't seem very friendly, so I thought we were in for an unpleasant dining experience, but fortunately our server, Karina, was very sweet and helpful.
I ordered the King Edward's Club Sandwich with Fries. Everything was delicious!
It was GIGANTIC! We ended up eating it for breakfast the next morning. It was sweet and delicious. My boys devoured it!
Even though our lunch didn't start off that well, it sure ended on a very sweet note!

A home buyer expo Saturday offered potential home buyers with what they need to know to unlock the doors to home ownership.
Christopher Smith and his wife are tired of renting and are ready to own a home.
"My mom down in Gulfport her yard was always voted the best yard in the neighborhood so I'm trying to outdo her now with my own home here in Jackson," Smith told WLBT News.
The Smith's attended a home buyer expo with other hopeful home buyers at New Horizon Church International Saturday. From learning about the importance of a real estate agent, to financing, experts explained why this is an ideal time to buy.
"We are seeing amazing things in the rates, we are seeing things from 3.275% to 3.375%," said Rashida Walker, a Realtor with Prudential Gateway Real Estate.
Walker said with the federal government's FHA loan slightly over 3%, your down payment on a home can be as low 3.5%. The loan also provides long-term security.
"For instance right now we are doing FHA as a fixed rate loan 30 year mortgage," said Walker.
In addition to low rates and banks lending more, your tax refund is another huge asset that can help you make the move into your new house. You can use that refund to boost your credit by paying off debts, or put the money into a savings or CD account.
"You can borrow against that which actually is a loan, but you're using that money as collateral you're paying yourself back and earning interest from it," said Shae Williams, the Executive Director for the Mississippi Faith Based Coalition.
The Smith's are looking at some "Voice of Calvary Ministries" homes. Through a federal grant, the once foreclosed homes in Jackson were completely renovated and now available at affordable costs to qualified buyers.
To learn more about the Voice of Calvary Ministries Program you can call Rashida Walker at 601-573-1866. For more on the FHA loan go to http://portal.hud.gov/hudportal/HUD?src=/buying/loans.
