Is Netrunner pure bluffing. yes. Bluffing in thrones is more in plot phase, which is a very important part of the game. Challenge phase the bluffing is through what events you might be holding. YOu say the challenge phase a little predictable. What about in netrunner when i call your bluffs and reveal your ice, then it's just resource speed bumps after that. There's cards to reveal what you're hiding to counter those bluffs. After that it's " i need 10 resources to make a run and 5 to trash that annoying herring and then steal you're agenda and gamble it's not agressive secretary."
I'm glad you're still part of the gaming community by choosing warhammer. Let's take a sport i hate. I hate soccer. I DO love football . Where i live they play soccer every week. They even rent a gym to play it indoors during the winter. (You're probably scratching your head"i thought he lives in Canada and everyone plays hockey?") Now personally i love football. It seems i'm living in the wrong country.I will play soccer every once and a while but never really enjoy it. I do it for the exercise. There's not enough friends to play ( unless you join some touch league Bb), so twice a year we take a trip to meet some other guys and get a couple weekends of football in. I refuse to support soccer because i think it's a sissy sport. Should i play because more people are playing it? NO! It's still a sissy sport( in my opinion it's ballet on cleats. I apologize if i offended any). Every time i play i feel like i would enjoy myself more running stairs. I believe it's better to play something you enjoy even if it's with only 1 other person. the only flaw with this argument is if they move away on you, then yes, playing because of more people does carry some weight. But then that goes against why we play games- for fun. But then there's the uber competitve player type who play a game because of the better prizes.
You're actually the first person who's defended Magics game mechanics. If only they spent the same attention to details as the flavor text. You're really going to argue the monetary advantages of Magic? c'mon!
So why are you still on the thrones message boards? If you don't like it leave. Come back when you get bored of Netrunner. Also about the deck playing you. How did you fare at worlds. I wasn't there. i'm not a tier 1 deck builder. If John Bruno was here telling me the flaws of the game i would do some soul searching. But hey , what can i say , I love this game. Been playing for few years. Keeps on getting better. Even after i've played considerable amount of other lcgs. Something to be said about bruno playing both games though. I'm happy that you like magic and netrunner.-- CHEERS

Gavin Banek (Ben Affleck) is a young high-powered Wall Street attorney working for his father-in-law's firm. On Good Friday Banek is on FDR Drive on his way to court for a probate case involving a multimillion-dollar trust when he gets distracted on his cell phone. One lane over is Doyle Gibson (Samuel L. Jackson) an insurance company representative and recovering alcoholic. His wife has divorced him and is planning on leaving New York with their two boys for a job in Portland Ore. unless he can convince a family court judge otherwise. He's practicing his speech on his way to court and while switching lanes doesn't notice Banek's silver Mercedes crossing over. The two cars sideswipe each other. Banek is too impatient to trade insurance information and peels off in his car with a cocky "Better luck next time." What he doesn't realize is that he has left a crucial file in the hands of Gibson who is left standing on a median next to his broken car in a downpour. When Banek's attempt to get the file back fails the two men engage in a bitter war of revenge.
Ben Affleck (Pearl Harbor) plays lawyer Gavin Banek a man quickly disillusioned not only by his profession but to a certain extent life. Banek is a complex character: Underneath the arrogance he displays at the start of the film is a nice guy who grapples with issues like everyone else. With every devious move is a bout of guilt and Affleck does a great job reflecting that in his character. Samuel L. Jackson (The Caveman's Valentine) is equally impressive as Doyle Gibson a recovered alcoholic trying to win back his family. Jackson plays Gibson's character with such earnestness you may find yourself taking his side. Both Affleck and Jackson handle their characters' duality delicately and convincingly. The supporting cast members also deliver superior performances especially Toni Collette (Shaft) who plays Banek's co-worker mistress--and ironically--his moral compass and Sydney Pollack (Random Hearts) his corrupt father-in-law and boss. Also look for good performances from William Hurt (A.I.: Artificial Intelligence) and Amanda Peet (Saving Silverman).
In his screenwriting debut Chap Taylor delivers a blunt and hauntingly realistic portrait of what happens when two decent guys are suddenly backed into corners. The story's intensity mounts almost inconspicuously as the two men carry on their hostilities swapping offensive and defensive positions as they try to destroy each other. This aspect of the film not only makes the characters more relatable but it also builds suspense. Each time one of them is ready to end the petty quarrel he receives a blow from the other which in turn makes them both more vengeful. Because the film takes place in one day director Roger Michell (Notting Hill) takes advantage of the time element in the film--a crucial component. With each threat for example is an or else: "It will take me half an hour to get to my bank " Gibson tells Banek when the cards are in his favor. "If my credit's not on by the time I get there I'll destroy the file." Changing Lanes effectively portrays characters that are not all bad and not all good--something many recent films have attempted to do unsuccessfully.

Kyle Wolfe exhibits digital works in Kortman Gallery beginning March 19
From press release
Graphic design, digital technology and the unusual creative approach by Rockford artist Kyle Wolfe result in intriguing and extraordinarily visual art to be presented in an exhibition in the Kortman Gallery. The exhibit, which opens Friday, March 19, is titled "A Thousand Words" in reference to how the images are created. Wolfe generates his colorful images by hand writing words that become small fragments of the complete picture.
"My work continues to evolve from a process of using words to create visual forms," says Wolfe. "The words applied are representations of my consciousness at the given moment of creation. This 'hands-on' approach challenges the limits of digital art."
Kortman gallerist Doc Slafkosky says seeing the work is the best way to understand the technique. "Hand-created digital art sounds like an oxymoron, but the beautiful, iconic graphic images are literally created by Kyle's handwriting," said Slafkosky. "'A Thousand Words' is such an appropriate title for this show, since seeing the actual art work visually explains the process, more than words can."
The opening for the Kyle Wolfe exhibit March 18 is from 5:30 to 9 p.m. in the Kortman Gallery, upstairs at J.R. Kortman Center for Design, 107 N. Main St., downtown Rockford. Admission is free and open to the public. The opening is in conjunction with "It's Our Time," a group exhibition at North Main Studios, 2500 N. Main St. The gallery is open Monday-Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. The exhibition runs through April 13, 2010.

Now that Stance socks are in stores, I thought it would be a good time to check in with President John Wilson to get an update on the young brand.
John told me at Agenda that it's been exciting to see consumers respond to the product.
Getting the concept together and getting good sell-in at retailers was great, "but ringing the register is the most important thing," he said.
Stance's Bryan Wilson showing the line at Agenda
Stance has experienced a reorder business as well, which is "very encouraging," John said, especially since Stance has not been in the market for a full year yet.
Another question that has been put to rest is the seasonality issue. When Stance started, they weren't sure how much demand there would be for socks in spring and summer.
Turns out that demand is just fine in warmer months, including for Stance's low-cut sock offering.
"It's a 12-month business, and we feel we got that validation in our first spring and summer," John said.
John has been spending a lot of time in Europe.
The Stance concept is translating well there, where there is also a void in the market for stylish socks. Filling that void means adding incremental dollars to retailers' sales, which makes store owners receptive to the idea of a new category.
In November, the first Stance product will come to market in Europe, John said.
Stance has performed a joint venture, Stance Europe, and will go direct in Germany, France and the UK. The partnership is with Peter Caldwell, who helped build Reef, O'Neill, Firewire and others in Europe.
Stance is also targeting Sweden, Switzerland, Finland, Norway, Italy and Spain through distributors.
It will launch in Canada in spring of next year, and in Japan this November.
Domestically, Stance continues to expand its initial foundation of accounts from its Fall 2010 launch, to include more surf, skate and snow accounts, in addition to adding streetwear accounts and fashion boutiques such as Fred Segal and American Rag.
John is also pleased that the company's accounts are geographically dispersed as well.
I definitely get the impression that more is brewing at Stance from both John and CEO Jeff Kearl, but they weren't quite ready to talk details yet.
I'll let you know when they are.

Resorting to RO
The island of Anguilla in the British West Indies is one of the northernmost Leeward Islands in the Atlantic Ocean. Like many Caribbean islands, tourism is its main industry, with more than 100,000 visitors each year.
Firm designs reverse osmosis systems for two Anguilla resorts
UF System
The Neo-Pure TL3 is an under-sink drinking water system that utilizes the latest UF technology to deliver great-tasting water and greatly reduce viruses, cysts and bacteria. This high-quality water is generated through two 0.5-µ carbon blocks and a hollow-fiber UF membrane. The system has a flow rate of 1 gpm, produces no wastewater, does not require a holding tank, and keeps all the essential minerals in drinking water necessary for great-tasting coffee and teas.
Light Commercial RO Systems
The Reo-Pure LP3 Series of light commercial RO systems is the next generation of the Reo-Pure LP-ES series. This new design offers even lower energy consumption, added safety features, and the same high production capabilities, all inside a single compact system. The systems are fully assembled, factory tested and sure to provide years of trouble-free operation with quick and easy maintenance. The LP3 series has capacities ranging from 50 to 1,750 gpd.
KMS Installs UF Modules at Mongolian Steel Mill
The technology was selected based on permeate quality, energy consumption and chemical consumption compared with competitive products
Koch Membrane Systems Inc. (KMS) installed its Puron HF ultrafiltration (UF) modules at a major steel mill in Inner Mongolia, China. The system is the first large application of the product in the metals industry, with a capacity of 57,600 cu meters per day (15.2 million gal per day).
Into the Future
When people find out I am involved with the water treatment industry, there is one topic that almost always comes up: the ongoing drought in California and other states, and what is being done about it.
Axeon HF5 Series membranes not only offer 2,500 gpd and 98.5% rejection at 80 psi, they also have the lowest operating pressure of any polyamide membrane in the industry. That means reduced energy costs, increased system lifespan and the ability to downsize your system's motor, making the HF5 membranes ideal for cold water and all other applications.
Success in the Maldives
In February, government officials from the Republic of Maldives joined representatives from the Aquiva Foundation, memsys, Aquaver and the local power company, Stelco, for the official commissioning of a desalination facility on the island of Gulhi that will bring a sustainable and reliable supply of drinking water to its residents.
Project produces drinking water from waste heat
Membrane Chemicals Minimize Fouling
Axeon Water Technologies offers a line of proprietary chemicals specially formulated to minimize the harmful effects of foulants, maximize the efficiency of systems, and extend the performance of reverse osmosis (RO) membranes.
Axeon S-100 is an effective antiscalant, formulated for feedwater with the highest levels of metal oxides, silica and scale-forming minerals. It works with up to 150 grains of hardness and possibly higher, keeping the system running smoothly and lowering the chance of fouling.
Traditional Treatment Methods
One of the most pronounced shifts in the water treatment industry is the rapidly burgeoning need to improve water quality. The need for water treatment systems is growing quickly, and, unfortunately, North America is hardly immune to challenges.
A look at three tried-and-true methods for water softening & treatment
RO Faucets
Designer and Contemporary RO faucets are now available in Venetian bronze finish. These faucets, designed for RO and water treatment systems, are made of high-quality, lead-free brass, combining quality and style with up-sell appeal. They are now available in 10 designer finishes, including Venetian bronze, polished chrome, satin nickel, white, biscuit, polished brass, antique bronze, black, bright nickel and brushed stainless finish. All are listed to NSF/ANSI Standard 61, Annex G.

Driven To Death
It's a massacre, annually taking the lives of more animals than laboratories and hunters combined. It's a major threat to our native wildlife but you're unlikely to see much about it on television or read much about it in the newspaper or on the internet. There aren't any high-profile public campaigns against it and you won't be asked to donate money to stop it. Every day an estimated 1,000,000 animals die on American roads. And while it's tempting to think it's only raccoons, possum, deer and stray domestic animals that are struck down it's not. Even the more iconic American animals such as Bison, Bald Eagles, Alligators and Grizzly Bears meet their end on our roads.
Animal-vehicle accidents are having a devastating impact on some of our most endangered species. In July a male Ocelot was killed on State Highway 100 in the Laguna Atascosa National Wildlife Refuge of southern Texas. This refuge is one of the Ocelot's last strongholds within the United States but in the last thirty years 40% of the refuge's Ocelots have died on roads. Cars have proven equally dangerous for the Florida Panther. According to statistics provided by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission 49 panthers were struck down on Florida's roads between January 2012 and October 2014. An incredible number considering the Florida Panther population is estimated between 125-175 animals.
Animal-vehicle accidents also have a human component. According to the US Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration approximately 300,000 animal-vehicle accidents are reported annually. This number rose 33% between 1990 and 2004 despite an overall decline in vehicle accidents. The administration also reports it's likely that at least half of all animal-vehicle accidents aren't reported. Approximately 90% of all animal-vehicle accidents reported involve deer with an average cost of approximately $5,000 in vehicle repairs and medical care. Each year in the United States more than 200 people are killed in animal-vehicle accidents.
Every day nearly 200,000,000 drivers travel our nation's 4,000,000 miles of roads making animal-vehicle accidents inevitable, especially given the widespread public apathy on the topic. Many of these accidents are preventable if we're willing to take a few, simple steps;
Slow Down
Slowing down just a bit can improve the odds of avoiding an animal-vehicle accident. As an example, a car traveling at 50 mph travels over 73 feet per second. The same car, driving 5 mph slower travels just 66 feet per second. Those 7 feet can mean the difference between clipping an animal and the animal clearing the road before you pass.
Dusk, Dark and Dawn
The overwhelming majority of animal-vehicle accidents occur between dusk and dawn. This is when wildlife is most active and our vision is least acute.
Know Where You Are
An animal-vehicle accident can occur anywhere but is most likely on a country road or on a road in or adjacent to a forested area than on an inner-city street or an urban expressway.
Use Your Bright-lights When Possible
Our vehicle's bright-lights better illuminate what's in front of us and what's off to the sides of the road. Depending on the animal you might even see your lights reflected in its eyes.
Look For More Than One
In the spring and summer many animals will be traveling with their young. Animals such as Deer, Coyotes, Turkeys and stray dogs can be encountered in groups regardless of the time of year. Always be aware that the animal you see might not be the only animal on or near the road.
By minimally changing our driving habits we can save wildlife from dying on our roads.

Small Cat Conservation Gets a Big Boost with a Federal Grant
You probably already know that the Cincinnati Zoo is committed to the conservation of lions, tigers and cheetahs, but did you know that we are also leading the way in small cat conservation? And our Small Cat Signature Project just got bigger! Our Center for Conservation and Research of Endangered Wildlife (CREW) recently received a Museums for America Grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services to improve our ability to maintain healthy captive populations of five small cat species across the country—the Brazilian ocelot, the Pallas' cat, the black-footed cat, the Arabian sand cat and the fishing cat.
Unfortunately, none of these small cat populations are considered sustainable through natural breeding alone. That's where Dr. Bill Swanson, CREW's Director of Animal Research and the world's leading expert on small cat reproduction, comes in. Working in partnership with Dr. Jason Herrick of the National Foundation for Fertility Research and the Species Survival Plan coordinators for each species, Dr. Swanson will direct the project with a focus on three goals: 1) Collect and freeze semen from the most valuable cats for each species, 2) Produce viable offspring using artificial insemination in recommended breeding pairs that fail to reproduce naturally, 3) Produce offspring with frozen-thawed semen from genetically valuable or under-represented males.
Building on CREW's decades of ground-breaking research on small cat reproduction, successful completion of this project will greatly enhance the sustainability and stewardship of small cat collections in AZA zoos. Now that's big news!

Do You Know the Potto?
Everyone is familiar with primates like gorillas, monkeys and even lemurs, but not too many people know of the potto. So what's a potto, you say? Pottos are prosimians, which are primitive primates, not as highly evolved as monkeys but sharing many of the same characteristics (fingernails and toenails, stereoscopic vision, forward facing eyes, etc.). Some other prosimians include lemurs, lorises, bushbabies, tarsiers and aye-ayes.
The Cincinnati Zoo is one of very few zoos around the world to exhibit pottos, not because they are endangered, but more because of their nocturnal way of life. Many zoos do not have a building like our Night Hunters exhibit in which the day / night light cycle is reversed. This allows us to exhibit nocturnal creatures under subdued blue lighting during the time our guests visit and then fill the exhibits with white lighting when our guests have left.
In early 2014, there were only 16 pottos in four zoos in the United States—Cleveland Metroparks Zoo, Milwaukee County Zoo, Franklin Park Zoo and Cincinnati Zoo, of course. We have maintained pottos in our collection since the mid-1960s when we first opened the former Nocturnal House. We have been one of the top breeders of these African primates and we currently have seven pottos at the Zoo. Recently, it became clear that if we wanted to keep these charismatic animals in U.S. zoo collections, then we needed to have a plan to maximize the potential of our small population with regards to breeding and to also recruit more zoos to commit to exhibiting them as the potto population grew.
The Mammal Curators of the zoos holding pottos were all on board with the desire to continue to work with this species. The pedigree information of the U.S. population of pottos was run through a computer software program that provided us with the best possible pairings from our small group in order to maximize genetic diversity. From that information it became clear that in order to achieve our goal, 12 of the 16 pottos needed to move in order to create the pairings recommended. We also needed one more facility to join us to provide the extra space needed to ultimately put together the seven potential breeding pairs indicated by our "computer dating" service. The Henry Doorly Zoo in Omaha, Nebraska stepped up to become the fifth zoo in the U.S. to maintain pottos.
By mid-summer, the five zoos had committed to making the necessary moves to have all the transfers completed before cold weather might become an issue for transportation. Of the six animals we originally had here in Cincinnati, four have transferred to other zoos while five new pottos arrived. We now have three pairs as well as a young male who will serve as a companion animal to an aging bamboo lemur. The other zoos involved with pottos will either have one pair (Cleveland Metroparks Zoo and the Henry Doorly Zoo) or two pairs (Franklin Park Zoo). The Milwaukee County Zoo, which is now holding a single young female potto, is attempting to import a young male potto from Africa, which will provide new genetics to our population as well as provide us with yet another pair of animals for breeding.
It has been very gratifying to see how well the five zoos have worked so quickly and cooperatively towards our common goal to maintain a healthy potto population. Though the potto may not be an endangered species, we would hate to lose this charismatic creature from our collections. Many Cincinnatians have met our potto, Gabriel, at the Zoo or at events around the city. I like to think that it's because of this ambassador animal that more Cincinnatians know what a potto is than people in any other part of the country.

Our code base has grown organically and its internal dependencies are very complex. We could have spent a lot of time making it more modular in a way that would be friendly to a source control tool, but there are a number of benefits to using a single repository. Even at our current scale, we often make large changes throughout our code base, and having a single repository is useful for continuous modernization. Splitting it up would make large, atomic refactorings more difficult. On top of that, the idea that the scaling constraints of our source control system should dictate our code structure just doesn't sit well with us.
For some reason, I always just assumed they use Git. The more you know.

I admit, I'm a bit disappointed with Isabel Marant's Fall campaign. For some reason, the designer swapped out the awesome Daria Werbowy for the newly married Milla Jovovich. The ad, shot by Inez and Vinoodh, pictures Milla — in the same exact pose — wearing Marant's delectable fur chubbies, velvet shorts, soft tees, tiered skirts, and luscious studded booties. Remember when Sienna Miller donned them during her G.I. Joe circuit? I love the clothes, but the ad doesn't do them justice. Call me crazy but there was something about Daria that embodied Marant's fun fashion, and Milla just leaves me kinda bored. Thoughts?

I think Milla looks great and embodies the brand's fun spirit very well. I just wish they hadn't picked the same pose for the two photographs, but it's a cool campaign nonetheless...

Daria is everywhere. I think Milla is a fine replacement.

Actually, the clothes are ugly and Milla is gorg.

Google Tests New Colorful iPhone Search Design
PhoneArena.com has screen captures of a new Google search interface designed for the iPhone and maybe other mobile devices, such as Android, Palm Pre and others.
The interface uses colorful app-like icons at the top of the search bar, instead of small blue tabbed links on the current interface. It does push down the search results real estate a lot but it also makes the search interface a bit easier to see and use. It somewhat emphasis the colorful left hand side bar Google uses on Google.com for the past year.
Here are pictures from PhoneArena.com:

Earn More Money By Switching Jobs
by Chris Malone
posted Jun 24 2014 2:58AM
Time for a new job. A new study reveals that people who stay at the same job for more than two years earn 50 percent less over their lifetime than those who change companies more frequently.
Forbes magazine says
the average raise a worker can expect in 2014 is three percent, which is really just about one percent after inflation. By contrast, the average raise an employee receives for starting at a new job is between ten and 20 percent, and in some cases as high as 50 percent. Loyal employees lose out in the long-run because many businesses have been forced to freeze payroll and decrease salaries following the 2008 recession. Bethany Devine, a Silicon Valley hiring manager, says, "There is often a limit to how high your manager can bump you up since it's based on a percentage of your current salary. However, if you move to another company, you start fresh and can usually command a higher base salary."

text: McLaren lose long-time sponsor to Mercedes 7 July, 2014 Hugo Boss and McLaren going separate ways Eric Boullier has played down McLaren's sponsorship situation, despite a long time partner deciding to invest elsewhere – in this instance further up the grid. Already without a title sponsor in the wake of Vodafone's exit, the British team is in a two-year competitive slump and it now emerges that another long-time backer is departing. Hugo Boss, a German fashion house that has sponsored McLaren for decades, is switching its sponsorship to Mercedes. But Boullier, McLaren team boss, denied that the Woking based squad are facing a financial problem. "No, we have thirty two sponsors," he is quoted by Italiaracing, "even though you don't see them all on the team shirts. "And I can guarantee that the support from Honda will be considerable," added the Frenchman, referring to the pending works engine deal that will end McLaren's 20-year association with Mercedes-Benz. "If you want to conquer this world you need to be a high level team, and we are," Boullier insisted. "You also need a good engine and the support of a manufacturer. We will have all of this next year." He said that the problems with the 2014 chassis, the MP4-29, are being addressed, "We lack aerodynamic downforce but I knew this would happen. I noticed it immediately when I arrived, when they showed me the features of the car in the various departments." But Boullier said he is confident that McLaren will also have a top driver lineup next year, refusing even to rule out a driver of Fernando Alonso's calibre signing up. "Yes, why not?" he said. "We are an attractive team. The option with Button and Magnussen is in our favour, but my job is to speak with other drivers to understand their situation. My goal is to have the best possible pair of drivers."

At a time when accountability is a priority in higher education, Florida State University is poised to implement a bold plan to move into the U.S. News & World Report Top 25 ranking of national public universities.
By leveraging a combination of state and private funding that is tied to set benchmarks to make it a national leader in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) as well as student career readiness and job placement, President Eric J. Barron is confident Florida State will achieve this goal.
Florida State's "Top 25" plan calls for an increased state commitment of $75 million divided into $15 million increments over five years. The university will match the state's commitment dollar for dollar with targeted investments in four areas: STEM, entrepreneurial focus, career enhancements and higher retention and graduation rates.
Florida State's "Top 25" plan is a legislative initiative to create pre-eminent universities. Schools advancing to this category would receive a higher level of state funding because of their ability to meet a broad set of standards of excellence. At the present time, only Florida State and the University of Florida would quality for pre-eminence.

With the primary election in the rear-view mirror both Gov. Susana Martinez and Democratic candidate Gary King hit the campaign trail.
King started the day with most of the candidates he beat in Tuesday's primary election. It was a peaceful gathering among the candidates at a news conference in Albuquerque.
King was immediately faced with the question, "How do you achieve unity with a party chairman, lawyer Sam Bregman who once called you the worst attorney general in New Mexico history?"
"We recognize as lawyers, that those are indeed things that are done in battle or said in battle," answered King.
Meanwhile, Republican Martinez ventured into democratic territory, first Las Vegas, then Espanola at a senior stroke victim center.
Democrats have a big advantage over republicans in registered voters but Martinez is a powerful incumbent who proved four years ago that she can win over significant numbers of independent and democratic voters.

Every year the Messiah College History Department sponsors a "Career Night" in which we bring alums back to campus to talk about the ways that their undergraduate study of history has helped them in their workplace. We could not have been more excited about our speakers at this year's event.
Beth Baggett graduated from the Messiah College History Department in 1997 and went on to pursue a career in the fashion industry. She has worked for Guess Jeans, Nautica, Sean John, and is currently the Vice-President for Sales–Men's Division–at Perry Ellis International.
Caitlin Babcock graduated from the Messiah College History Department in 2010 and went on to pursue an M.A. in Peace and Conflict Resolution. She is currently Executive Management Assistant at the Nationalities Service Center in Philadelphia, a non-profit organization that helps new immigrants assimilate to American life.
Both Beth and Caitlin discussed how they transitioned from a Messiah College history major to their current jobs.
Beth talked extensively about how she has used the writing and research skills that she learned as a history major to rise in the fashion industry. (She currently heads a $40 million division–men's retail–at Perry Ellis). She also discussed how history has helped her "to see the big picture" as she takes sales data and tries to weave it into a story about the products she is charged with selling. She credits her study of history and a lot of hard work with getting a leg up in this very competitive and global industry.
Caitlin uses her history major every day in her work with immigrants. Part of her job is to tell the stories of the immigrants she encounters in a fair and compelling way. She has learned to listen and empathize with those she encounters at work–something she learned listening to and empathizing with the dead people she encountered every day as a history major. The ability to craft written narratives has also been essential to her work as a grant writer for this non-profit agency.
This session reminded us that a solid undergraduate training in a liberal arts discipline such as history can prepare one for a variety of jobs. It was clear that Beth and Caitlin love their work. It was also clear that if they had to do it all over again they would still major in history.

The co-director of the "Documentary Film and History" program at Syracuse University just contacted me. He would love to see some Messiah College history majors apply to this program. Here is a taste of his e-mail:
Syracuse University offers a unique MA degree for History majors and minors. Currently in its tenth year, our "Documentary Film and History" program is designed for students interested in making documentary films on historical themes, offering them the opportunity to deepen their understanding of history while they acquire the practical skills of the filmmaker's craft.
This fifteen-month program is a collaboration between the History Department and the renowned Newhouse School of Public Communications. Applicants do not need a media background. In addition to taking courses on film production, screenwriting, and historical methods, students choose courses that allow them to deepen their knowledge of a specific field within history. For their M.A. thesis, students make films on topics chosen in conjunction with their advisors. Recent films have examined topics such as the role of race in college football, the history of the video game, and the idea of the outlaw in country music.
Our alumni work at the History Channel, Focus Films, National Geographic, as well as for independent film companies such as Sundance. Some have also used the degree to pursue work in public history, or as a gateway to a Ph.D. program.
For more information on the program, please visit: http://newhouse.syr.edu/academics/degrees/masters/documentary-film-and-history.

Consider stopping by the Career and Graduate School Expo on Monday and chatting with some potential employers and graduate school representatives. Many of you have been giving serious thought to how your history major might translate in the marketplace. An event like this give you a wonderful opportunity to chat with potential employers and "sell" your history degree and the transferable skills that come with it. I strongly encourage you to visit.
Are you thinking about graduate school? There will be representatives from several graduate schools, even some in history. For example, I just received this e-mail from Crystal Nielson. She will be at the Career and Graduate School Expo representing the University of Delaware's Historic Preservation graduate program and is eager to chat with history majors. I am going to try to stop by and say hello to her and I hope you will too! Here is the e-mail from Crystal:
I just want to introduce myself briefly since I will be attending the Messiah grad school fair on Monday. I represent the School of Public Policy & Administration (SPPA) at University of Delaware, and we offer very 6 very well-respected, interdisciplinary graduate programs — I thought that the M.A. in Historic Preservation might be particularly interesting to some of your seniors studying history who might be interested in a career working with historic buildings and properties.

One of the great things about being a student in the Messiah College History Department is all the opportunity to learn outside of the classroom. Over the course of the next few weeks there is a lot going on in the life of the department and we invite you to take it all in.
On Thursday, October 23, 2014, Philip Deloria will be delivering the American Democracy Lecture, the most important lecture in the life of the department. Deloria is a professor of history and administrator at the University of Michigan and a scholar of native American history. His talk "American Indians in the American Cultural Imagination" promises to be an excellent talk. Learn more about it here. Also check out the Facebook "event" page.
Thursday, October 30, will be our annual "Faith and History" lecture. This year's lecturer is Tibebe Eshete, lecturer in African history at Messiah. In the 1970s Tibebe was a young Ethiopian Marxist who was active in the overthrow of Emperor Haile Selassie. Here him describe his journey from Marxism to Christian faith and his understanding of the historian's vocation. Stay tuned for more details. The lecture will be held in Boyer 335 at 4pm.
Finally, on November 4 the department will sponsor its annual "Career and Graduate School" event. This year will focus on careers. Our speakers will be two Messiah College history alums. Beth Baggett was a Messiah College history major who currently works as an executive in the New York City fashion industry. Caitlin Babcock, another Messiah history alum, works for a non-profit organization focused on the assimilation of new immigrants. It should be a great event. Stay tuned for more information. If you ever wondered what you can do with a history major you need to be at this event.
I hope you will join us for all of these events.

The first round of the Georgia High School Association state basketball tournament begins tonight, and for some area schools it couldn't come soon enough.
A total of 16 boys and girls Southwest Georgia teams open tournament play, which was supposed to begin on Tuesday and continue Wednesday. However, last week's inclement weather postponed several region tournaments in north Georgia, and the GHSA gave regions three more days to complete their tourneys.
That pushed back the start to tonight with most girls games, while the boys will play on Saturday.
The exception is in Class A, where the classification has one less round than the other five classes. Those teams will begin their first-round play on Monday.
By the time the Monroe girls play host to Richmond Academy today at 7 p.m., it will have been seven days since the Lady Tornadoes beat Westover to capture the Region 1-AAAA championship.
"You want to be consistent in what you do," Monroe girls coach Cheryl Cheeks said. "We've been practicing hard against each other, but it's not game situations. It's kind of like the beginning of the season all over again. We've just had to keep them motivated, changing things up to make it fun."
During this time of the year, most basketball programs don't like to have breaks with the exception of giving injuries time to heal. Richmond Academy, which plays in Region 3-AAAA, just finished its region tournament on Wednesday. The Lady Musketeers won't have the break that Monroe and the rest of Region 1-AAAA members had.
"We've got to be ready to play after having the week off and make sure we don't come out flat," Cheeks said.
Monroe is one of two Dougherty County girls teams to play at home tonight. Westover meets Burke County at 6 p.m., while the Dougherty girls travel to meet Region 3-AAAA champion South Effingham.
One local school excited to host a first-round game is the Lee County Lady Trojans, who will entertain Richmond Hill in a 6 p.m. contest today in Leesburg. It will be the first time in four years the Lady Trojans have hosted a state tournament game.
"We've got to play as a unit because we don't have that one dominating player," Lee girls coach Tondra Davis said. "I've stressed that everybody has to do their job and play their role. Richmond Hill is a No. 3 seed, but I've told our team that none of that matters because you can get beat on any given night. We just want to keep pressing forward."
The GHSA calls for girls game to be played tonight, with boys games on Saturday. However, a pair of Southwest Georgia schools agreed to play early.
Lee County's boys, the No. 3 seed from Region 1-AAAAA, will travel to Springfield to meet Effingham County in a 7:30 p.m. contest. That follows the Effingham County girls playing host to Bainbridge in a 6 p.m. game.
Pelham is also following suit. The unbeaten Lady Hornets will play host to Josey at 6 p.m., with the Pelham boys playing host to Screven County in a 7:30 p.m. in a doubleheader.

Ole Miss guard Marshall Henderson was suspended indefinitely on Wednesday for reportedly failing multiple drug tests.

RT @GaryParrishCBS: Marshall Henderson's suspension is related to a failed drug test, a source told @CBSSports. — Erin Andrews (@ErinAndrews) July 10, 2013 Andrews is a graduate of the University of Florida, the team which Henderson made a name for himself by mocking. Henderson then took to Twitter and sent out his own response: Andrews has obviously taken the high road and not responded to Marshall, though I'm betting she wishes that she could. Henderson then continued showing his "regret" for being suspended in a since deleted Instagram video.
