FBI Director Robert Mueller said disciplinary action is in the works
FBI Director Robert Mueller said today the bureau may discipline at least 22 FBI agents who were found to have cheated on a computerized "Virtual Academy" exam in an investigation by the FBI's Office of Inspector General.
The IG reviewed actions by FBI agents and supervisors in four field offices and determined that a significant number of the employees used answer sheets, consulted with others, exploited a software programming flaw, or engaged in other actions that compromised the integrity of the Domestic Investigations and Operations Guide (DIOG) test, the IG said in a report.
"A significant number of the FBI employees we interviewed cheated on the test and did not comply with the test conditions," the report said.

"An uncompromising commitment to integrity remains the backbone of the FBI workforce," Mueller said. "When allegations of misconduct relating to the DIOG testing first came to our attention, we moved quickly to investigate, bringing in the Office of Inspector General. In cases where misconduct has been determined, personnel actions were taken, and that process continues. We will follow-up in each of the 22 cases the IG has found for disciplinary action, as appropriate, as well as any other allegations of misconduct."
At the same time, Mueller and the IG acknowledged some mitigating factors to the alleged misconduct, noting the exam in question was the first time in a FBI Virtual Academy test that agents were barred from consulting with others during the exam.
Although all FBI Virtual Academy tests are conducted as "open book," meaning that agents are allowed to consult their textbooks and notes, the IG found that agents taking the tests also used answer sheets that had been filled out by other agents, which violates a rule against "consulting with others." Some FBI agents disputed that description and said the answer sheets were "notes" and should have been allowed.
The FBI implemented the new guide in December 2008 as a basic reference manual for domestic investigations. Training on the manual was provided to approximately 20,000 FBI agents, who took the test between May 2009 and January 2010.
Many of the FBI employees interviewed by the IG said the exam was substantively more difficult than most FBI training exams, its administration was different from previous exams and some of the questions were poorly phrased. But the IG said although those things may be true, that doesn't excuse the improper conduct.
"While these issues explain some of the OIG's findings, they do not excuse the conduct of employees who did not comply with clear instructions," Mueller said.

This is stupid. You changed the rules on them, changed the test parameters, made the test more difficult, and gave them the opportunity to cheat by making it "open book." It wasn't a fair competition. Also, few children raised after the era of Dr. Spock have the moral discipline of prior generations. Too many gray areas, like the definition of "notes."

That training NCO was a piece of work and he claimed that he could pass any of the USAF tests.

Windows 7 Home Premium x64
Shadow Man acts weird
Shadow Man was released for PC by Acclaim in 1999. Initially I'd found no problems running under Windows 7 but after a near-complete playthrough...
* certain animated textures and elements animate at a very fast speed
* slopes and hills seem to behave like ice in that the player slides down them when standing, waking up them can be quite a chore
* enemies and such often get stuck on the environment or will wriggle around in place, jittering
* cutscenes go dark as if the light source isn't projecting
* instances of climbing up a ledge sometimes cause the player to fall through the floor
* the zombies in the Gardelle Jail level are unkillable. This makes the level nearly impossible
This might sound like a buggy game but these problems did not happen when running the game under Windows XP 32 bit. My main theory is that the video card isn't handling the game properly which could account for the sliding, jittering monsters and fast animations. I'm also using an Xbox controller with XBCD, this could account for the sliding on slopes due to the more sensitive nature of the analog stick. That doesn't explain the unkillable monsters though. I've found the game also supports 1600 x 900 resolution but it may not fully support, as the game is older than it's usage. It could be a combination of things. Does anyone have any ideas?

Shepherd (work-in-progress)
Where does nature end and man begin? When a man leaves a mark how does it transform a place?
I asked these questions while working on a previous series that documented ways in which man ritualistically marked his environment. Shortly after completing that series I was fly-fishing on a small creek in a remote area of Wyoming. After fishing along the creek for some time and hiking into the forest a few miles from the nearest road, I saw an odd aspen tree. Aspens often have many scars. However, this tree's scars were man-made. They comprised of unusual symbols and a foreign language carved in elaborate script.
This tree captivated me.
These marks, made by Basque shepherds all over the West, are true folk art. They are expressions that were never meant to be seen by a greater audience. Some of these carvings are so remote and hidden that it's possible I may have been the first to see them in decades.
I don't need to know what they mean, rather what interests me is what the act of making them tells me about the man who dug his knife into that thin white bark 50, 75, or even more than 100 years ago. Therefore, I approach photographing these "arborglyphs" much like an environmental portraitist. Using the tree as a surrogate for the shepherd.
Jessica + Jim's Petaluma Engagement
This engagement shoot with Jessica and Jim was in downtown Petaluma, California.
Prince Gallery
I'd like to announce that I will be opening a new art gallery in downtown Petaluma. Prince Gallery will be an alternative exhibition space available for rent in downtown Petaluma, California. It will exist only to support the work of the Bay Area's best emerging and local artists. This gallery will be a side project to my current wedding photography which will still be my primary focus.
This means my office will move into the gallery. So starting in May my studio will be located in Putnam Plaza at 122 American Alley in downtown Petaluma.
Every day there seems to be one less place for local and emerging artists to exhibit a complete body of work in a solo show or a thematic group exhibition. There are a few great local art centers, salon style galleries, and of course, coffee shops and boutiques, but Prince Gallery seeks to be a space where an artist can have an entire gallery to display a body of work the way they want to. It will be a space for not just painters, photographers, and sculptors, but also more experimental media, performance art, installations, film screenings, etc.
Please help me support our local and emerging artists by backing and sharing our Kickstarter project.
Goosebumbs And Falling Leaves: Kaila
This styled bridal boudoir shoot was shot in an Aspen grove in the mountains above Lake Tahoe, California. Our models were Kaila Uli and Kirsten Moran. Their hair was styled by Colette Burrows, makeup done by Kat Louis, and wardrobe styled by Jessica Thompson. The vintage wedding gown, antique lingerie, and accessories were provided by Recaptured Design and the freshwater pearl jewelry was provided by Lucia Antonelli.
I believe one of the strengths of my boudoir photography is the ability to find great locations. In French, "boudoir" refers to a bedroom, but in my work the concept of a bedroom usually gets a little stretched. Oftentimes it becomes scenic. I decided to do this styled shoot in collaboration with some really spectacular stylists, designers, and models in preparation for a new destination boudoir package I will be offering for 2014. We will be going to some really unique locations in the Sierra and wine country.
Goosebumps On Falling Leaves: Kirsten
Q: What is one of your signature services? How is it performed?
A: Everything we do revolves around wedding photography. That's our bread and butter. However, we do a lot of engagements and especially boudoir. Boudoir has become a great value added service that our brides appreciate because of our artistic approach and unique and often scenic locations.
Q : How is your approach different than that of other professionals in your field?
A: I approach a boudoir shoot much the same way I approach any other portrait. Meaning that the most important aspects to capture are subtle emotions that reveal inner beauty. All the while the shoot is styled with sexy make-up, hair and wardrobe that is certainly more sensual than any other portrait. The sexy styling develops a feeling of all around beauty for both the viewer and, of course, our client being photographed.
Q: What aspect of your job, or the services you offer, most often surprises people?
A: I think that our unique locations surprise many of our clients. Many clients come in to a consult with an idea of what boudoir photography is and what they want. They expect to get the same old "woman in lingerie on a bed with her feet in the air" shot. Then when they see our work and some of the beautiful private outdoor locations we shoot at, they are surprised. Often a client will go into the process thinking she will shoot in a studio or hotel room and end up with amazing pictures of herself at a remote beach, or rustic farm, or romantic vineyard.
Q: Is there anything else you want to add that we didn't cover?
A: The best boudoir shoots are often when our clients do it for themselves just as much or more than for their significant other. Seeing yourself expressing all-around beauty in professional photography can be a very uplifting and empowering experience. And spending an afternoon in an amazing location with a team of stylists who are only there to make you feel and look awesome is pretty cool too.

Adobe brings Flash platform to TV and set top boxes
But HDTV and broadband internet are blurring the lines between web video and television. And Adobe wants to help bring the walls down by pushing Flash for TV and set top boxes including Blu-Ray players and cable boxes. Adobe has already partnered with companies including Intel, Broadcom, Comcast, Netflix, and Disney on the project.
In other words, you can imagine a future where you turn on your TV and in addition to video, on-demand programming, and a program guide, you can pull up weather, news, and other information provided through an internet connection, as well as quick and easy access to web video from any site like ABC.com or Netflix that makes content available for the platform.
Of course, if this all happens, it means you're going to need to get a new TV, set top box, or other hardware in order to enable the new features. Or you can just stick an old computer next to your TV and use Flash the old fashioned way.

Spatial reuse of wireless medium in multi-hop wireless sensor networks
Geerlings, J. and Hoesel van, L.F.W. and Hoeksema, F.W. and Slump, C.H. and Havinga, P.J.M. (2007) Spatial reuse of wireless medium in multi-hop wireless sensor networks. In: Third Annual IEEE BENELUX/DSP Valley Signal Processing Symposium, SPS-DARTS 2007, 21-22 March 2007, Antwerp, Belgium.
|The idea of multi-hop communication originates from the 1990's and is eagerly incorporated in the wireless sensor network research field, since a tremendous amount of energy can be saved by letting —often battery powered– nodes in the network assist each other in forwarding packets. In such systems it is key-issue that the wireless medium is spatially reused. The lightweight mediumaccess control (LMAC) protocol relies for spatialmedium reuse on the following assumption [1]: a receiving node can distinguish
whether an erroneous packet is caused by an (concurrent)
interfering transmissions or due to e.g. noise.
In this paper this assumption is verified by path loss and interference measurements. Both outdoor (pasture land) and indoor (corridor) measurements were conducted.
From the results it can be concluded that there is a sharp defined communication range. And that packet errors within this range can be attributed to interferers that are within interference range.

Joe Bonamassa — a tireless performer who plays upwards of 200 shows a year — performed at a sold-out State Theatre on Tuesday, Oct. 25. Bonamassa has a strong fan base among guitarist and blues music lovers, despite the fact that he has put out 12 albums, 137 songs in all, and has yet to come up with a single main stream hit. No matter, we love him all the same. More photos from the show here.

AT&T ups some off-contract smartphone prices to match new early upgrade feesAlex Wagner - Editorial Director of News and Content
There was quite a bit of outrage when AT&T decided to jack its early upgrade fee for smartphones all the way to $200. Things have gotten worse, though, as the carrier has also increased the full retail prices of some of their handsets to match up with the new fees. Not all of AT&T's no-contract prices have gone up (the Samsung Captivate is still $499.99), but there are still quite a few devices that are around $100 or $150 more expensive now. Some of the affected handsets include:
- Palm Pre Plus: Previously $299.99, now $399.99
- Palm Pixi Plus: Previously $229.99, now $379.99
- HTC Aria: Previously $329.99, now $429.99
- Sony Ericsson Vivaz: Previously $279.99, now $429.99
- Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10: Previously $349.99, now $449.99
- Motorola Backflip: Previously $249.99, now $349.99
This move definitely stings for those of us that prefer to avoid contracts, especially since it was only done to make customers that want to upgrade stay in contract rather than pay the same amount and go contract-free. After T-Mobile introduced their Even More Plus plans for off-contract fans, I was hoping that more carriers would follow T-Mo and become more off-contract friendly. Unfortunately, AT&T seems to be moving in the opposite direction. So, what do you all think? Anyone plan on picking up a $350 contract-free Backflip?

ZICO Mango is the same base product as ZICO Natural but with added mango flavor. It's a very subtle mango flavor that does not mask the flavor of the coconut water. Instead, it gives the product a slightly bitter finish. This makes it somewhat difficult to distinguish the added flavor as mango. The general consensus of our taste test was to stick with the Natural ZICO.

Like many others I find myself wondering why Americans just don't care about soccer. Soccer itself is an amazing display of teamwork, precision, and intense rivalry, and is truly a sight to behold. Experts have put forth explanations such as lack of star power and a weak professional league. However I believe a so-called "lame soccer culture" is what truly repels spectators from the United States. After watching the competition for the past two weeks, I believe I have come up with three potential reasons for soccer's lack of popularity in our country.
¢1. The Dramatic Dives:
Since I began watching soccer, I have noticed a particularly disgusting strategy that many professional players employ during a match. This act known as "diving" is done in order to gain undeserving free kicks from the referee. It begins with the player dribbling swiftly down the field aggressively in the direction of the opponent's goal. Things are actually getting pretty impressive, but don't worry, this is about to change drastically. A defender then comes in for a sliding challenge, and the offensive player falls to the ground, a look of intense agony on his face that would seem to imply the sort of pain most people only experience a couple times during their lives. At this point one would assume that he has broken his
Now this sort of garbage may fly over in Europe, but in athletic competition in the United States this stuff just doesn't happen. How many times have you seen a batter take a 95 mile-per-hour-fastball straight to the back, pause for a moment while he considers whether or not he should charge the mound, then trot down to first base with a face of stone? In the same respect, how many times has a wide receiver on a crossing pattern met the shoulder pads of a 245 pound linebacker with such ferocity that his helmet explodes from his head, not unlike a Tweety Bird Pez dispenser. In general, the receiver will pop up in an instant (unless he is genuinely knocked out or he is Chad Johnson) to preserve his invaluable pride. If Americans are ever going to follow soccer with the same passion as the rest of the world, the athletes need to learn not to crumple to the ground crying every time they take a cleat to the shin. In a country that produced "NFL Blitz", the movie "Total Recall" (How easy would a Chuck Norris reference be right here?), and the Enormous Omelet Sandwich from Burger King, it is not common to be enthused by a sport in which grown men show such displays cowardice. To sum it up, European soccer is the opposite of John McClain in "Die Hard".
¢2. The Ceremonies:
In the United States we pride ourselves in our taste for the delightfully tacky. This sort of tradition extends itself to the ceremonies before, during and after our sporting events. In the NFL, football players explode from tunnels through a gauntlet of fireworks, large breasted cheerleaders with sparkling pom-poms, and "Back in Black" by AC/DC. During halftime of our nation's sporting events there is always some sort of spectacle to observe. Whether it is a half-court shot contest, an Asian woman juggling plates on a twenty foot unicycle, or a good old-fashioned baby race, Americans need something to spectacular to satisfy our very short attention spans.
At the European Cup there are no such theatrics. Instead the players hold hands with a young child (actually a little creepy) as they make their way onto the field, listen respectfully to both team's national anthem, and shake hands with opposing players before the match. How soccer of them. I mean there are usually only a couple of goals scored each game. Take note soccer. To become popular in the U.S. the sporting event needs to become just that, an event. Would it be so terrible to have teenagers dressed in wacky rainbow suspenders and comical wigs shooting Oscar Meyer Wieners into the crowd with a hotdog shaped bazooka?
¢3. America is not the best:
The United States Soccer Team is currently ranked 21 in the world, somewhere in between Turkey and Israel. At the 2006 World Cup the national team failed to advance to the round of sixteen, win a single game, and managed only one goal in a losing effort against Ghana (The only other score was an own goal scored by Italy in the second game). In the Ricky Bobby culture of the United States this is simply not acceptable. It is not likely that the typical McDonald's eating, UFC loving, firework blasting American can witness a national team responsible for representing the Stars and Stripes being utterly dominated in by Spaniards, Italians, and even the French in athletic competition.
Oh yeah and the scarves don't help either.

If you've ever doubted yourself, walk deep into any forest. Notice how the trees still stand even though they are given no recognition. Walk along any stream. The water still flows, though no one stops to praise it. Watch the stars late at night; they shine without acknowledgment. Humans are just the same. We are made out of the same elements as these beautiful wonders. Always remember your beauty and self worth.

I either eat too much or starve myself. Sleep for 14 hours or have insomniac nights. Fall in love very hard or hate passionately. I don't know what grey is. I never did.
There is no mistaking love. You feel it in your heart. Love really is everything it's cracked up to be. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And, the trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more.

Be noble for you are made of stars.

My entire life can be described in one sentence: It didn't go as planned, and that's okay.

Seattle U signs PG Shaughnessy
Good recruiters are always thinking ahead. Even though Seattle U went into the 2014 spring signing period apparently set at point guard -- with rising senior Isiah Umipig returning as arguably the top player in the WAC, Hawaii transfer Manroop Clair set to become eligible, and early signee Jadon Cohee coming in from Canada -- the Redhawks continued to stockpile talent at the one.FULL STORY
Redhawks-Huskies scheduled for Nov. 21
While the recruiting world has been turning up some interesting story lines for Seattle U in recent weeks, the most noteworthy piece of offseason business that head coach Cameron Dollar can officially talk about is the Redhawks' schedule for the upcoming 2014-15 season.FULL STORY
Seattle U makes Foster's final four
This season was one of growth for Elijah Foster. Not only did the Rainier Beach High School (Seattle) power forward end his senior campaign about an inch taller than he began it, putting him at 6-foot-8 and 240 pounds presently, but he also grew as a player into a coveted D-I recruit.FULL STORY
Davis signs with Seattle U
It has been an eventful day for Seattle University basketball. Not long after Big Bend Community College shooting guard Brendan Westendorf signed a National Letter of Intent to attend SU, another homegrown, high-scoring shooting guard -- Foss High School (Tacoma, Wash.) star Armond Davis -- put pen to paper to confirm Seattle U as his college choice.FULL STORY
Westendorf signs with Seattle U
The Seattle University recruiting rumor mill has suddenly gone from zero to 60. The final weekend before the April "dead period" sparked a handful of reported verbal commitments, and now, one official signee: 6-6 shooting guard Brendan Westendorf.FULL STORY
Q&A with Shore Adenekan
Shore Adenekan may be the closest thing Seattle University has to a one-man metaphor for its basketball rebuilding project.FULL STORY
2013-14 season wrap-up with Cameron Dollar
The fifth season of Cameron Dollar's head coaching tenure at Seattle University -- also known as the fifth season of SU's second life on the NCAA's Division-I level -- was one of alternating peaks and valleys, ending with unfulfilled potential and unanswered questions.FULL STORY
Washington picks SU over Air Force
For the last four years, basketball has been a family affair for Drew Washington. At Oak Harbor (Wash.) High School, the 6-3 shooting guard was coached by his father, Mike Washington, and for two seasons he played alongside his older brother, Mike Jr. So when Drew steps onto the court for his freshman season at SU, he'll be stepping out on his own to carry the family name solely on his shoulders.FULL STORY
Westendorf drawing more D-I attention
Averaging just under 30 points per game on any level of amateur basketball will draw the attention of scouts and recruiters, something Brendan Westendorf is learning first-hand.FULL STORY
Seattle U's season ends at WAC tournament
As Thursday night's first-round WAC tournament game between Seattle U and New Mexico State made its way down the stretch with the 7th-seeded Redhawks trying to hang onto a lead over the 2nd-seeded and two-time defending champion Aggies, two questions came to mind: First, could SU actually pull off the upset? And second, where was this SU team all season?FULL STORY
Seattle U ends regular season on skid
The Redhawks face an uphill climb in the WAC tournament, as Saturday's 67-53 loss at Chicago State left Seattle U as the 7th seed in the conference tourney with a first-round matchup against two-time defending champions New Mexico State.FULL STORY
Redhawks roasted by 'Roos on road
With the WAC tournament looming as their only chance to make the NCAA's Big Dance, it's looking like the Redhawks will only go as far as Isiah Umipig's shooting hand can carry them. Five days after lighting up Idaho for a career-high 36 points and eight threes in a victory, Umipig had his worst shooting performance of the season in Thursday night's 82-73 loss at Missouri-Kansas City.FULL STORY

The Greatest Testimony.
Posted by Robert Dean | POST A COMMENT (0 Comments)In John 5:1-47, Jesus doesn't just testify about Himself but the Father testifies of Him and this testimony is greater than John the Baptist who was sent as a human witness. John was sent to testify that Jesus is the truth. All this so people might be saved. John had testified to the people that Jesus would come shortly and baptised them with fire and the Holy Spirit. Jesus revealed that John was a light that burned for a while and some people chose to enjoy the light. Ministry is not always long term but effectiveness is determined by anointing, availability and obedience. Jesus had the Father's testimony and the works He was doing showed that He was the Son of God. In the case of the Christian the inward testimony of the Holy Spirit and the fruit we display show we are of the family of God. If people will believe in Jesus they will have the Holy Spirit and the voice of God within. We have His word and voice inside. Our last point today is people can study the scriptures and yet miss the mark because they think through them they might have life. True life comes through Jesus Christ. It is a sad commentary of religious life to read the Bible and miss eternal life because you did not believe and trust in Jesus. This is also a challenge for all today. Start with Jesus and go from there. Your promises today are: John 3:16, John 10:10, Rom 12:1-2, 1 Cor 10:13, Gal 6:1 & 6-8, 1 John 4:7-8. Your Insightful Sayings are: A change in Environment effects only the area it happens. A change of heart changes all who come into contact with that world. Success is measured many times not by what we possess but by what we give away.

text: Rubio to Decide on Presidential Run in 2014 Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 26 Jun 2013 post a comment On Tuesday, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) said he would make a decision about whether to run for president in 2014. According to USA Today, Rubio told the American Society of News Editors conference in Washington that he will make his decision "based on a lot of different factors" in late 2014. "I know you're not going to believe me when I tell you this, I really don't think about that right now," Rubio said. "Anytime you start thinking about what you're going to run for next, it begins to influence how you behave, the decisions you make, the issues you take on, the stances that you adopt." Rubio's support of the Senate's immigration bill has seen his poll numbers, especially among Republicans, plummet across the board. His favorability rating among Republicans is down 15 point since February and his embrace of the immigration bill has not even won him the support of moderates, with only 39% of "ideological moderates" viewing him favorably. The Washington Examiner's Byron York, who previously reported that many Republicans in Iowa now see Rubio as the "amnesty candidate," has compared him to Mitt Romney after Rubio flip-flopped on immigration. And former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin told Breitbart News on Tuesday evening that Rubio, along with Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) should be primaried because of his flip-flop on immigration and border security. Rubio's staff did not help matters by committing unforced errors, disparaging Americans workers "across every sector" that "can't cut it" to a reporter from the liberal New Yorker magazine, no less. All this suggests should Rubio decide to run for president, he may have considerable trouble winning over the conservative base.

booleanearth said: Hi, I just wanted to say that I love your interview with John Campbell. I thought it was super interesting and you did a great job and now I'm really sad that you had to take it down. I'm also really sad about what John's doing in erasing himself from the Internet, so I was hoping maybe (maybe) you could try to talk him out of it? I guess that's a lot to ask of you. Sorry.
I don't totally get what he's doing, but I've had my own ideas about retreating from internet life. So maybe I do get it? I think when you decide to exist as a public persona, you give up some control of your life and that can be a drag. Next time I see John in person I want to talk to him about it, because he's still posting weird empty stuff on his tumblr and making comments on twitter. So I don't know where's he's at about it. Also I really liked the interview and wanted to do an eventual follow up. Oh well.

Stats: 51 years old, self-taught artist, mother of two. Autistic/Asperger's family.
Although I have always mainly worked with graphite pencils doing portraits, not long ago, I got very interested in creating digital sculptures. This was an art medium I'd never tried before. Now, because of it, I have become *very* excited about doing traditional clay sculptures. Since I've never done any work at all in clay before, I am starting out using polymer clay. Thus far, I have made several gift sculptures and have actually sold two others.

I had intended to call this page HDR Collaborations, however, Collaboration implies the coming together of many to create a single work. I felt a better term would be HDR Concert, a group working together harmoniously to create a symphony of similar HDR works. Everyone in the HDR concert is instrumental to the final piece. Just as every instrument has a varying sound, the individuals participating in the concert will attribute their own unique sound in the final symphony.
The concept is simple, the last Wednesday of every month I will host an HDR Concert right here on EverydayHDR.
- I will put the word out 1 week prior (3rd Wednesday of every Month) using social media such as Google +, Facebook, and EverydayHDR.
- I will include the brackets to be HDR'ed in the announcement.
- Once the word is out, the first 10 people to send me their image will have themselves a seat in the concert.
- I will respond to your submission with a form that must be filled out and returned prior to your image being posted.
- You may use any tone mapping and post processing software for your final image. Textures, borders and effects may be applied during post processing.
- There will be revolving themes some of which may require you to break your mold a bit, these themes will be discussed in the initial announcement.
- In general any tone mapping and post processing is acceptable.
- I would like to stress this is a concert, it is a union of many artists coming together harmoniously to create an HDR symphony. This is not a competition.
Let the symphony begin!

The impact: The plan will guide the organization's efforts to address the needs of its numerous constituents in the federal IT community.
The nuts and bolts: As chairwoman of AFCEA International, Givans was involved in developing the organization's first strategic plan four years ago and has been working diligently since then to make the new one — now in its final review stages — a reality. The planning sessions began in early 2011 and the draft plan emerged near the end of the year. Givans has a reputation for making sure that AFCEA receives a clear return on its investments.

This is a hard post to write because I'm probably going to come across as whiney and unappreciative. But as much as I love the baby I'm carrying I feel like as a woman I'm completely overlooked and I'm invisible to everyone around me.
This all came to head on Saturday night while I was out with my other half at a 30th birthday party. From the moment I got to the party my other half disappeared with his friends to drink and be jolly leaving me, the sober one to just be a burden to the party atmosphere. Don't get me wrong I'm not anti social I'll mingle and do my rounds and chat and gossip with everyone and anyone but I'm acutely aware that I'm not exactly the person people want to have fun with as I can't drink or reach the level that they're at. Plus while I'm chatting away I end up feeling breathless or my legs end up aching. Without a support I feel like I'm alone.
I tried my hardest to not make it an issue, but seeing my other half talk to other women who looked amazing and svelte just made me feel like a bloated whale and really insecure. I'm not typically an insecure person as I don't feel like it warrants my emotions normally, but that night I really felt it.
I know that with the baby coming everything will change and so I try to allow my other half to have his fun but if I'm being honest I think I resent that because it feels like I'm the only one dealing with this pregnancy and having to make sacrifices. Especially when I am out with him and he's nowhere to be seen, it's like he can't be bothered with me because there are more entertaining people for him to chat and talk to. Again who wants to talk to the sober pregnant lady?
It's a horrible feeling and I've told him how I feel, but I just don't think he fully understands how I'm truly feeling. By midnight at most events I go to with my other half I will be sent home (gratefully) in a taxi and he'll continue spending time with his friends, but to me that means he should be more attentive when I am there so I don't feel like I'm overlooked and unwanted.
He's tried to make me feel better, cooking my favourite meals, booking a little break away for us, buying me flowers. But it doesn't deal with my actual emotional state. All those things are lovely but they don't help me feel secure right now.
Welcome to the emotional state of a pregnant woman.

As a no-kill, not-for-profit, volunteer-run organization, the Humanimal Connection is dedicated to addressing the unmet needs of the cat population by connecting humans and animals together.
