M.S. Rehabilitation Counseling and Case Management
The Master of Science Degree in Rehabilitation Counseling and Case Management is a fifty-two hour (52) semester hour program within the Department of Behavioral Sciences and is fully accredited by the nationally recognized Council on Rehabilitation Education (CORE).
The mission of the Rehabilitation Counseling and Case Management program is to prepare students to be ethical, multi-culturally competent, conscientious, and qualified rehabilitation counselors and professionals who will increase and enhance the employment, advocacy, social, educational, and independent living opportunities of individuals of all disability types. Our mission will be accomplished by several implementation and programmatic objectives, goals, and activities. Implementation objectives are prerequisites for program objectives. The implementation objectives for the Rehabilitation Counseling and Case Management program are as follows:
- To provide a quality curriculum representative of the skills and competencies needed to serve consumers with disabilities in a variety of settings and capacities;
- To provide academic and experiential opportunities in accordance to standards established by Fort Valley State University, departments, and appropriate accrediting and certifying agencies;
- To provide opportunities for students to be interactive with individuals with various types of disabilities;
- To make our program accessible to persons from diverse backgrounds;
- To make the Rehabilitation Counseling and Case Management Program more visible at local, state, national, and international levels; and
- To provide quality clinical counseling skills development and ethical training for students.
The goal of the Rehabilitation Counselor is to assist persons with disabilities to achieve, to the fullest capacity, vocational, social, psychological and economic independence, and improved quality of life. The vigor of Rehabilitation Counseling is one of both autonomy and empowerment in which persons with disabilities exercise the utmost control over their lives.
The graduate training model utilized within the Rehabilitation Counselor Training Program will assist students to acquire a thorough understanding of the medical and psychosocial impact of disability on all areas of the consumer's life, including vocational and independent living, as well as provide the student with a solid skill and knowledge base in counseling theories and techniques, case management models and procedures, service coordination, career exploration, job development, job placement, and assistive technology. Further, students will become familiar with the historical components and the various legislative and philosophical underpinnings of the Vocational Rehabilitation System. Graduates of the Rehabilitation Counseling and Case Management program are eligible to sit for the national certifying exam in order to obtain the Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC) credential. Eligibility also exists to pursue state licensure as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) (with 2 years of experience in the field). For additional information about rehabilitation certification, visit the Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor Certification at www.crccertification.com.
All face-to-face classes are held at the Fort Valley State University Warner Robins Center, 151 Osigian Blvd., Suite A, Warner Robins, Georgia. The M.S. in Rehabilitation Counseling and Case Management Program is available as a fully online degree. Beginning in 2012, the Rehabilitation Counseling and Case Management program will be accepting new students for summer and fall semesters only. There is a fully on-campus and a fully online program which admits students each year in the fall and summer.

Rehabilitation Counselors enjoy increasing employment opportunities in a wide variety of settings, including mental health facilities, group homes, rehabilitation centers, substance abuse treatment centers, independent living centers, correctional facilities, hospitals, high schools, as transitional rehabilitation counselors, universities, as well as private vocational rehabilitation and public vocational rehabilitation programs.

To learn more about the outlook of the rehabilitation counseling field, please visit Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Students may wish to pursue their own research initiatives under guidance of faculty. However, faculty members and students may, collaboratively, work on research projects. Some of the faculty research interests include international rehabilitation research, veterans with disabilities, employment outcomes of ethnic minorities with disabilities, multiculturalism, spirituality and rehabilitation, and attitudes toward individuals with disabilities.

life, relationships, mental health, & technology
I guess this means that those of us in mental health are going to have to pay for more training to unlearn what our past training taught us… all while getting underpaid for an education that costs as much as training for "more financially lucrative" (not that I'm bitter).
Does internet addiction really need its own diagnostic label?
Study finds that patients stick with therapy via phone more readily than face-to-face treatment. Not sure how I'd feel about not being able to see my clients. Even video-chat would be more thorough in my opinion.

Thérèse's mother dies when she is very young. Her father brings her to live with her aunt before dying himself a short while later. Thérèse learns to walk quietly and suppress her childish impulses in the house of her aunt and sickly cousin. She is subjected to the same medicines and treatments as Camille, although she is healthy and strong. She is allowed a little extra freedom when they move to Vernon. The country air agrees with her and she loves to go look at the river.
Madame Raquin always assumes that Thérèse and Camille will marry. Madame Raquin depends on Thérèse in this way to ensure that someone will continue to care for her son after she is gone. Once, Thérèse forgets herself and beats Camille when he teases her. However, for the most part...

In the early 1990s, two titans of the artfully cynical and subversive joined forces in an extraordinary collaboration: Legendary cartoonist and album cover artist R. Crumb illustrated two short books by Charles Bukowski, Bring Me Your Love (public library) and There's No Business (public library). Crumb's signature underground comix aesthetic and Bukowski's commentary on contemporary culture and the human condition by way of his familiar tropes — sex, alcohol, the drudgery of work — coalesce into the kind of fit that makes you wonder why it hadn't happened sooner.

Don't tell me women are not the stuff of heroes,
I alone rode over the East Sea's winds for ten thousand leagues.
My poetic thoughts ever expand, like a sail between ocean and heaven.
I dreamed of your three islands, all gems, all dazzling with moonlight.
I grieve to think of the bronze camels, guardians of China, lost in thorns.
Ashamed, I have done nothing; not one victory to my name.
I simply make my war horse sweat. Grieving over my native land
hurts my heart. So tell me; how can I spend these days here?
A guest enjoying your spring winds?

I met a man who makes meals at a restaurant
where there's no menu
but everything's on it
I know
but I met a man who makes meals at a restaurant
called death row
I met a man who makes the last meals
and I know way too many people
who would attack him asking him how it feels
to be part of something like that
so instead we just chew the fat
and I listen
he tells me about a 31-year-old boy
a 31-year-old boy
who was sentenced at the age of 22
waited nine years on death row
and last week was his turn
so he asked for sourdough french toast
and a side of magic beans
because a boy would rather face down a giant
take his chances with a beanstalk
than walk down that hall
where every footfall echoes into that oblivion
where every experience never had congregates
to create a world never lived in
a boy could find himself asking for things like magic beans
and a cook find himself understanding what it means
to be desperate

"He was an isolated person. As a young man, he stretched out his hand to Beauty and Love and they thrust it away. Gradually he reduced reality to exclude all but his work, filling the gaps with alcohol. He was also a solitary person. Years of traveling alone around the world with his juggling act taught him the value of solitude and the release it gave his mind. He abhorred bars, nightclubs, parties, and other people's houses. He seems to have left no diaries, letters, no serious autobiographical material. Most of his life will remain unknown. But, as Ruskin said, the history of no life is a jest." -Louise Brooks on W.C Fields in Lulu in Hollywood (1971 &1982)
That's a pretty amazing Ruskin quote at the end of a pretty amazing and insightful paragraph by Louise Brooks

John Peterson was recognized, by his community of Glen Eliyn Ill, for his rescue of a 15-year-old neighbor. On August 13, 2002, during a rainstorm, 15-year-old neighbor Vicky Bedlek attempted to remove a bale of hay which was blocking a large drainage tube in the road. Water was overflowing the ditch and flooding the Bedleck's driveway. John Peterson arrived at home and began assisting Miss Bedlek.The two were able to remove the blockage, however, moments later Bedleck slipped and struck her head on a pitchfork that she had been using. Both of her legs went into the drainage tube and the strong suction, caused by the strong storm waters, began to pull her whole body inside. John grabbed her arms, preventing her from being sucked into the drainage tube completely. John's wife heard his calls for help, came, and braced him as he held on to the girl. When the rain subsided, they were able to pull Bedlek from the tube. She only suffered minor scrapes and buises. John needed eight stitches on a finger that was injured while removing the bale of hay. (September 28, 2002)

In the last decade, we have witnessed the "free revolution." Marketers are giving away everything from books and software to vacations and even cars. This has shaped consumer behavior to the point that people often expect free and resent having to pay.
I see this every week in the publishing industry with ebooks. Many consumers expect them to be free or sold for a nominal amount, because they incorrectly believe that they don't cost anything to produce.

92 passengers, or 211 crewmen was ever found. The search even extended to the Crozet and Kerguelen islands south and east of Waratah's expected course. The significance of these islands becomes clear if you recall Brad Van Liew's impressions of them when he passed them in the Around the World Alone Race (see Chapter 4).
At the inquiry conducted a year later, an officer of the Clan MacIntyre testified that by the evening of July 27, the winds were at gale force from the southwest, and by the next day had become hurricane strength. At the hearing, there was disputed testimony that the Waratah was top heavy and had a tendency to roll excessively. Other experts denied this. A number of witnesses claimed they'd seen the vessel sink, or produced what they claimed was debris from the ship, or even claimed they'd sailed through an area and saw bodies floating in the water. The "witnesses" were all exposed as frauds; the debris, from other vessels; the dead bodies, actually thought to be fish offal, trash, or possibly pieces of a whale. Curiously, those who "thought" they saw dead bodies floating in the sea did not bother to stop to try to recover them or even check to make sure they were bodies.
So, what can we infer now, with the hindsight of 100-plus years, not being marine architects, and with no detailed knowledge of how the Waratah was designed and ballasted? First, we know that when storms coming up from the Southern Ocean stir up the sea and run headlong into the Agulhas Current, there is a strong likelihood that an extreme wave will be produced. Waratah's last known position at latitude 31 degrees south, close to the coast, put her right where such action was to be expected—right where giant waves could build up in the shallower water. Second, there is a good possibility that the resulting waves had a wavelength of around 500 feet, the same as the length of the ship—and the precise length to suspend her in midair and break her back. Or, if she had a tendency to roll, there were no doubt waves that could roll her, and then crush and sink her. However, all of this is speculation, and we can do little more than accept the Board of Inquiry's conclusion that the Waratah had been "lost in a gale of exceptional violence … and capsized."5
The story does not end here. That a large vessel could disappear completely without a trace—no survivors and no witnesses—is both-

$20 billion hidden under temple
Hidden in long-forgotten underground vaults, investigators uncover secret treasure worth more than $20 billion under a temple in India.PT1M14S http://www.smh.com.au/action/externalEmbeddedPlayer?id=d-1h63g 620 349 July 8, 2011

A treasure trove of gold and silver jewellery, coins and precious stones said to be worth billions of dollars has been found in a Hindu temple in southern India, officials said on Saturday.
The valuables have an estimated preliminary worth of over 500 billion rupees ($US11.2 billion), said Kerala Chief Secretary K. Jayakumar, catapulting the temple into the league of India's richest temples.
The thousands of necklaces, coins and precious stones have been kept in at least five underground vaults at the Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple which is renowned for its intricate sculptures.
"We are yet to open one more secret chamber which has not been opened for nearly 140 years," Jayakumar said.
The actual value of the treasure haul can be ascertained only after it is examined by the archaeological department, said Jayakumar.
The temple, dedicated to Hindu lord Vishnu, was built hundreds of years ago by the king of Travancore and donations by devotees have been kept in the temple's vaults since.
A necklace found on Thursday was six metres long. Thousands of gold coins have also been found.
Since India achieved independence from Britain in 1947, a trust managed by descendants of the Travancore royal family has controlled the temple.
But India's Supreme Court recently ordered that the temple be managed by the state to ensure the security of valuables at the shrine.
Until now, the Thirupathy temple in southern Andhra Pradesh state was believed to be India's richest temple with offerings from devotees worth 320 billion rupees.
The revelation about the huge riches in the Padmanabhaswamy temple has forced police to install security cameras and alarms.
Authorities also plan to set up a commando force for security, said Kerala director general of police Jacob Punnoose.
"Now it's known all over the world that the Padmanabhaswamy temple has jewels worth billions of rupees we have decided to assign it maximum security," Kerala Chief Minister Oommen Chandy said.

As the description of our new Ultimate Namibia Safari says …
Imagine camping in one of the world's largest national parks. Sea kayaking with seals and dolphins. Climbing some of the world's highest free-standing sand dunes. Sleeping in the treetops of a private game reserve. Is it really possible that all of these things exist anywhere near each other?
And the answer is, yes! Find out more about it on our Ultimate Namibia Safari page.

After all, when we think of Africa we think of wildlife and deserts and canyons and wild ocean shores and ancient history. But Namibia has all of that, and to truly experience Namibia, one must walk its desert wilderness, sleep under its sky, pause at its ancient sights, and find peace in its nature.
That's why we are so excited to offer the new Hiking Namibia trip. From the Kalahari desert to the world's second-biggest canyon, from a coastal game reserve to an ecolodge among the world's tallest sand dunes — this is hiking in Namibia, an adventure paradise waiting to be discovered.

Despite running into some February snow on the mountain, an Embark group of 11 people all managed to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro via the Lemosho Route and Western Breach, our preferred route.
The trip was put together in conjunction with the Mazamas, a Portland, Oregon-based hiking and mountaineering club. Greg Willmarth was the Mazamas organizer.
The above photo was taken at Millennium Camp during the descent of Kilimanjaro. That's the entire support team, the porters and our team of climbers, who are Greg Willmarth, Allison Greene, Eric Bruckbauer, Stephanie Bruckbauer, Eileen Kiely, Doug Willmarth, Kyle Kruger, Gordy Rubard, Gary "Quin" Ellis, Mike Newsham, and Amad Doratotaj.
Congratulations to all, and thanks for a fantastic trip!

It's one thing to have to sit in our Portland, Oregon offices, planning awesome adventure trips for other people. But when our founder and owner skips off to lead our Trekking in Patagonia trip, then sends us these amazing photos from his adventures, well … let's just bask in the glory of Patagonian scenery, try not to be jealous, and then plan on joining a future trek in Patagonia.
Donovan Pacholl started Embark Adventures, and he's currently in Patagonia on a trip that includes Monte Fitz Roy in Argentina and Torres del Paine National Park in Chile. Here are a couple of photos he managed to send us before going off the grid for a while:Monte Fitz Roy in Argentina. The Perito Moreno Glacier
As Donovan said, "This is why people come to Patagonia. We saw both Cerro Torre and Monte Fitz Roy on the first day of trek."

Artist of the Week: Realistic Finger Paintings by Zaria Forman
Painting plays an important part in our development as a species, as it allowed us to develop abstract thinking, and also visually document parts of everyday, mundane existence, as well as more "important" events. It is, after all, in the minds of many people, virtually synonymous with art, and it could be argued that without it, art as a concept would not even exist. Today, we will be taking a look at some absolutely gorgeous realistic finger paintings by Zaria Forman.

Sophie Gamand is the one behind these beautiful pictures depicting how soft and cute Pit Bulls are.

Artist of the Week: Art Painted on Stacks of Books by Mike Stilkey
Written and visual art go hand in hand perfectly, and the lines between the two are constantly being blurred by calligraphers or people who do book covers. Books have been around in one form or another since ancient times, but it was not until Gutenberg invented the printing press in the 15th century, that books really began to spread. In fact, Gutenberg's printing press remained virtually unchanged for another 5 centuries, and is still the basis of all printing presses everywhere.

Telecheck - Check denied for reason 02, code 3
I tried to use my check at Walmart and was denied.I have no bad checks out.
I usually use my debit card but decided to use my check. I was embarrassed that my check was denied because you know the people in line were thinking I was a bad check writer. I had the funds in my account and used my debit. The point is that Telecheck should NOT have the right to say which type of payment I use to purchase something.
It is my right to chose what I want and NOT be embarrassed by something that isn't my fault. Too bad we can't sue for defamation or something.
They should be reported to the BBC.Think I may just do that.b08dc9b
Anonymous Jun 15, 2013 Manassas, Virginia
It's 2013! if you usually use your debit card, then why didn't you? You must be trying to cover something up, if you would rather stand there, write up the check, hold up the line up, when you could have swiped & go without being embarrassed. You must have done something in the past for Telecheck to give it a reason 2, code 3. IJS0 0 Reply

You certainly have the "right" to use whatever form of payment you wish. However, WalMart most certainly has the "right" to refuse payment in a form that could be fraudulent---and if Telecheck questions your check, then they do not have to take it from you. Don't blame WalMart. Blame telecheck. Or, do a I do and not shop at WalMart to begin with. They are rude, inept, and have no customer service worth a red cent.0 0 Reply

Setting Regulations for Waterfowl and Other Migratory Bird Hunting
Establishment and approval of hunting seasons for waterfowl and other migratory birds is controlled by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). The criteria for selection of waterfowl seasons are provided by the USFWS in early August. Using these criteria, we offer the Commission and the Director proposed seasons based on population information available from continental and local duck and goose breeding grounds and preferences of Michigan hunters.
Population and Season Conditions
The Michigan goose harvest consists of primarily resident giant Canada geese and migrant Canada geese from the Mississippi Valley Population (MVP). Migrant geese from the Southern James Bay Population (SJBP) and the Tall Grass Prairie Population also make up a minor component of the harvest. The MVP is managed by the USFWS and Mississippi Flyway states using an annual quota system. Michigan exceeded its harvest quota of MVP Canada geese during the late 1990s. By beginning the regular goose season in early September (as of 1998), we have been able to shift harvest to resident giants and reduce MVP harvest so we no longer exceed our quotas.
Duck populations on the mid-continent prairie and parkland region nearly doubled between the early 1990s and recent years. Increases were largely due to higher levels of precipitation that improved breeding habitat conditions. In response, the USFWS expanded hunting opportunity by doubling the duck season length and daily limit. However, only about 20 percent of Michigan's duck harvest originates from the mid-continent, with the remainder coming from primarily Michigan and eastern Canada.
Most of Michigan's mallard and wood duck harvest is locally-produced, and other species important to Michigan hunters, such as green-winged teal, black ducks, buffleheads, and ring-necked ducks, are produced primarily in forested areas of eastern Canada. Michigan and northern Ontario have less productive, but more stable, waterfowl habitat conditions than the mid-continent prairie. Breeding populations have changed relatively little for most duck species nesting in Michigan and Ontario, with the exception of mallards. The Michigan breeding waterfowl survey has revealed a decline each year since 1998.
Season Goals
Working with waterfowl hunters, the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has identified the following goals for waterfowl regulations in Michigan:
- Simplify regulations where possible.
- Distribute hunting effort to take advantage of waterfowl resources and
reduce hunter crowding.
- Maximize waterfowl hunting opportunity, especially for youths, by:
- ensuring season dates encompass maximum bird numbers and abundant species; and
- Maximize statewide hunter days.

The Colts are in a great position to return to dominating their division. Andrew Luck and co got to playoffs with a team with many holes. The Colts need to focus on building their defense. Gaining a feature back that can be an 1,000+ yards/season would also be ideal being that the Colts haven't had that since Joseph Addai's second year in the league.
Round 1: Eddie Lacy, RB, Alabama– The Colts can really use a back like Eddie Lacy to show support to Andrew Luck. Eddie Lacy is a strong, smart back who is used to winning on the collegiate level (2x national champion, All-SEC 1st team RB in 2012). The top rated running back in the draft and the only one whose across the board expected to go first round. He is exactly what the Colts have been looking for in their backfield the past few years and will likely be available for them in the for them as long as Cincinatti doesn't snag him first.
Late Round Sleeper: Bacarri Rambo, S, Georgia – Every year there are great players with "character concerns" that dramatically plummet their draft stock (see Janoris Jenkins). This year, that is likely to happen to Georgia safety Bacarri Rambo who was suspended the first 2 games of his senior season for "accidentally" ingesting pot brownies. We've all been there right? However, the man is a playmaker making 73 tackles and causing 6 turnovers (3 INTs, 3 FFs) in the 10 games he played in 2012. The year before, he made 8 interceptions, was named an AP All American and was on the All-SEC first team defense. Any other year even with the character concerns, a player like this should go in round 2 at the latest. This year is a bad year for safeties because of the enormous supply of both free agents and the strong safety class headlined by Texas' Kenny Vaccaro and Florida's Matt Elam. Smarter teams like the Colts may wait until day 2 to snag a gem like Rambo who may even turn out to be the crown jewel of this safety class.

Delicious and healthy.

The King messed this one up
In case you need to carbo load for your next heart attack.
At least it probably tasted pretty good.
This is the kind of sandwich that causes chest pains.
Lots of cows have nightmares about this.
Is it supposed to look like this?
It's like a complete and delicious meal.
