Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

As the hockey store manager slid the hulking shoulder pads over my child's shoulders and then tightened the shin and elbow pads, I watched in awe at the mountain of stuff now velcroed to my eight-year-old. One part of me wondered, "How the heck will I ever get all this stuff on the kid by myself?" While in the other part of my brain, a red sign flashed DANGER! What was I getting us into?

With eleven million people currently battling eating disorders and the average onset as early as nine years old, the numbers are staggering. We often look to female athletes for possessing the most powerful -- and many times, the most beautiful bodies -- on the planet. It would seem certain that these athletes would be immune to eating disorders or poor body image. This is simply not so, as we found out in soccer star Brandi Chastain's turn in our award-winning GoGirlGo! curriculum.

Favela Da Chacrinha, Brazil offers a safe place for children to play and learn. It's badminton that helps the kids stay out of trouble. During the World Cup Soccer, Brazil was showcased around the world. Many people got to see the beautiful beach of Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro, but I am sure not many have ever heard about this amazing project in the favelas tucked in the shantytown hillside - the Miratus Project is in full swing.

Appearing to buck national trends, the prevalence of severe obesity among school children in New York City was down by almost 10 percent in the 2010-11 school year from 2006-07, researchers reported last month. The study, published in the journal Preventing Chronic Disease, measured the height and weight dimensions of approximately 947,765 children attending public schools ranging from kindergarten through eighth grade.

porque voy a hacer un intercambio en Francia el semestre próximo…
Así debo concentrarme en francés. Espero que puedo visitar España cuando estoy viviendo en París :)
sarahkristina has written 7 entries about this goal
porque voy a hacer un intercambio en Francia el semestre próximo…
a 3 week 24 hours per week intensive spanish course. Was good.
Now… to do the next one and go into second year spanish at uni?? Or to cruise along and be bored in 2nd semester??? Hardly any choice, just the $3.000 makes the decision a bit more interesting.
Yay for Dfee
Super expensive, but I am not doing much at the moment so I figure it's worth it just to have something to do!
Super intensive spanish course to go over the basics and get me a subject ahead in my degree…
Hopefully I will be able to make a good start on this next year!
Taking Span 1601 and 1602, would love to go on exchange.
So, what actually happened was they told me I was too advanced for 1st semester beginners Spanish (pfff there were people who had lived in Sth America for a year there!!!) so I was told I could start at the beginning of 2nd semester. Not sure if this will work (ie they are probably too far along, I really dont speak that much spanish) but hey lets hope it will. Sem 2 starts in August…
at uni. it's pretty lame because it's a repeat of the other times I have learnt Spanish. Not that I'm perfect, just that it's annoying repeating. I'm going for a grading tomorrow, to see if they think I could go into the next level up who knows!
øv øv i was so excited about Spanish… but the lack of 'beginners' in the title of the class misled me.
I am now learning how to say cómo-se-llama-me-llamo-sarah
qué-hora-es-son-las-tres again
sooooo disappointing. I'm continuing anyway, even though i'm only here for another month. i'm going to try and do some writing task type things but i'm not motivated at all.

The establishment of the School's first Ethics Code and creation of an Ethics Policy Committee mark a new and welcome chapter for the LSE. I accepted the position of Chair in the firm belief that through this Committee, we have an excellent opportunity to make sure that we all take personal responsibility for ethical matters and placing ethics at the very heart of decision-making.
The Committee will have a busy workload over the coming months, and has already begun the important task of considering cases referred to it for decision. During the course of the year, the Committee will also monitor the progress being made in embedding the Ethics Code into the fabric of LSE life. I believe that I speak for all members when I say that we are both honoured and excited to be involved in such important work, and I look forward to keeping you informed of progress over the course of the coming year.

Route Grade Votings
Total votes cast 46

10m. The left-hand side of the wall trending right. Low in the grade though many of the holds are rounded.
Very overgraded. Both Curving Crack and Quien Sabe seemed harder! hence: HS 4b
Delicate bold HVS climbing at the crux upper section. Clearly a grade more serious than Curving crack and half a grade on Quien Sabe (stp must have had a bad day on these). Not sure about 5b though?
Fun climbing and HVS 5a in good conditions. Upper section is bold but steady.
Certainly 5a rather than 5b

Clean Seas to narrow first-half net lossPUBLISHED: 24 Jan 2011 14:36:55 | UPDATED: 24 Jan 2011 14:36:55PRINT EDITION: 24 Jan 2011
Clean Seas Tuna says it expects to reduce its net loss for the half year by about 25 to 35 per cent compared with the six months to December 31, 2009.
This follows a "cash-flow positive" performance by the company's Kingfish business following a selldown of inventory, price increases and cost savings in the half year, Clean Seas said in a statement on Monday.
Clean Seas made a net loss of $14.16 million in the half year ended December 31, 2009.
"The winter months are seasonally slow growth months for Kingfish," said Port Lincoln-based Clean Seas, which specialises in farming Southern Bluefin Tuna, Mulloway and Kingfish.
"Whilst this impacts on the first half-year results, the sell-down of inventory, price increases and cost saving initiatives have resulted in the company's kingfish business being cash flow positive for the latest half-year."
Southern bluefin tuna broodstock has started spawning, prompting the start of the season's larval rearing trials, the company said.

GOP presidential candidate Ron Paul received what his campaign described as a "game changing" endorsement Sunday, as influential South Carolina State Senator Tom Davis, officially gave his support to Paul.
The Senator, a heavyweight fiscal conservative in the South Carolina General Assembly, is extremely well regarded amongst Republicans and Tea Party activists and will undoubtedly bring voters to Ron Paul's campaign ahead of the "First in the South" primary.
A Public Polling Policy poll of South Carolina voters released Friday shows 30 percent of voters in the state identify themselves as Tea Party members. Although Ron Paul is and always has been at the core of the real Tea Party message, Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum have, up until now, polled the highest with self proclaimed Tea Partiers In South Carolina.
It is particularly important for Paul to secure Tea Party votes in this week's primary, given that there are less independent voters in the state than in Iowa and New Hampshire.
"We're excited and grateful to have Sen. Davis's endorsement, as it carries tremendous weight in South Carolina," said Ron Paul 2012 National Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton. "Sen. Davis knows a true fiscal conservative when he sees one. He's uniquely qualified to distinguish between establishment candidate Mitt Romney and the conservative alternative to Romney, Ron Paul."
Davis recently slammed Romney over his Wall Street connections and support of the banker bailouts:

To call the team successful if they blow this chance just doesn't fit, it WILL be a failure.
I'm hoping that doesn't happen the team is good enough to win the whole thing and we shouldn't expect anything less. If they don't win it with this team and the advantages they have THIS year no one will call the season a success. Winning the SB has to be the goal, an early playoff exit or 2nd place in the SB is not.
If you had been staking this claim since last offseason, then I'd get you, but this team has become far better, much faster, than most thought possible. 13-3 is, in itself, a successful season. Our hopes and expectations are high right now, and not winning the super bowl will bring some disappointment, but it will not equal a failure of a season. Deion Sanders says a lot of things, but they aren't necessarily right.
From a players perspective, especially one who has won a Super Bowl, it's easy to label anything less than a Lombardi Trophy a failure, but in reality, the spectum of success in the NFL is broader than a binary success/failure. The game is far more complex from a GM and coaching perspective.
For fans, apparently it varies. I think this season has been incredibly successful, and will consider each additional win as additional success. For you, it seems to depend only on whether they win the Super Bowl. If that's the case, I presume you stopped watching the games once you decided this team was good enough to win it all? I presume you will not watch the playoffs games until the Super Bowl?
I didn't think so.

Craft for Art's Sake
With the news of a human-canvas run-in at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, I was reminded of a recent Chronicle title that also involves masterpieces.
Artful Jewelry is a book plus craft kit that features 11 famous works of art—Vermeer's The Girl with a Pearl Earring, Van Gogh's The Starry Night, Botticelli's La Primavera, among others—and 11 accompanying jewelry projects. All the materials you need to create six of the projects are included: teardrop pearl beads, headpins, earring wires, embroidery floss, a bracelet base, seed beads, and more.
Each jewelry project is inspired by key elements of the paintings. Here are some of my favorites.
There is something very satisfying about capturing Van Gogh's mesmerizing (and untamed) swirls in a necklace:
Klimt is always decadent. These golden earrings are, too:
Understated and elegant, these teardrop earrings are inspired by Vermeer's The Girl with a Pearl Earring:
And this bracelet is reminiscent of the one worn by Renoir's Jeanne Samary:
These are four of the projects you can make right away.
Two recent Chronicle Books visitors, 12-year-old Bella and 15-year-old Ashley (pictured at the top of this post) picked up Artful Jewelry and couldn't put it—or the completed projects—down. They are artfully adorned with the Van Gogh necklace, Degas ring, Gauguin bracelets, Monet rings, Egyptian bracelets, and Da Vinci necklace.
And if you happen to be in New York City when the Picasso's The Actor is restored and back on view, what better way to honor it than by wearing one of Artful Jewelry's completed projects, like the tulle ring on Ashley's left hand? You can always check out the ring's inspiration, Degas's The Dance Class, also at the Met:
I guarantee that your Artful Jewelry crafting experience will garner you a new—or at least renewed—appreciation for the art.

Pokemon: Hidden Intentions {Re:Hidden} [Sign Up]
Hello all. About two years, I tried to start a RP here, and it was fairly successful...until we basically hit a stop in the posting process.
I decided I'll try to "remake" the RP, so to speak, and start anew...and maybe it will even be better then the first go-around...and make people will actually join in this remake so to speak...
It has been 12 years since the events of Gold and Silver. (We are going by the merit that Ho-oh and Lugia were optional like in the original, i.e. they're still wild pokemon in this.)
Just now, a new pokemon terrorist group has immersed. They work in the shadows, and not alot of people know alot about them, not even the police. The only thing for certain that's known about this group, is that they referred to their organization as Team Ultima, and the higher ups in the organization use very rare and powerful pokemon. Also unlike other terrorist groups before it, they have no problem using their pokemon to attack not only their foe's pokemon, but the trainer themselves as well. In fact, some of the higher-ups in the team prefer to aim for the trainer from the start.
About 2 years after Team Ultima appeared, a new corporation emerged in Saffron City, known as Starr Corporation. It was founded by a man known as Victor Starr. Soon after it's establishment, Starr Corporation grew like wildfire, making advances in pokemon items, pokemon research, and pokeball technology much faster then their competition, Sliph Co. Just last year, Starr Corporation managed to drive Sliph Co. into extinction. Starr Corporation only used it's money to help sponsor things such as the Goldenrod City Expansion Project, joint-ownership of the Goldenrod Global Trainer Station, and even the Kanto-Jotho Pokemon League itself. Lately however, there has been claims that some pokemon placed up for trading in the Goldenrod Global Trainer Station have gone missing, but all the police investigations on the matter failed to turn up anything, either due to lack of permission to investigate further into the Station due to Starr Corporation's influence, or because the police themselves mysteriously vanished while looking into the case, or were paid off by Starr Corporation to cease the investigation.
All while it seems Starr Corporation is slowly trying to get all of the major industries on it's side, Team Ultima is still very active and strong in the shadows...it seems like it's just waiting to make it's move, but what is it's purpose? Some rumors going around claim the team is trying to capture the legendary birds in order to weaponize them to make a unbeatable army, some claim that the team is trying to cause a war between Johto and Kanto in order to try and rise up amidst the chaos, and others claim that it's actually a secret pokemon cartel that first sells off shines and other rare pokemon to sponsor their activities and to slowly make their way into the governments of the world, controlling it from the inside out. Will the true intentions of both imposing forces be revealed in time?
That was the opening plot for this RP, the first act will take place in Goldenrod City. Don't worry, we will be hitting other cities and areas as the RP continues.
- Standard rules, no godmodding and the like
- You can be either good or bad if you'd like, or even one of the higher-ups of Team Ultima (Like have a Commander class or something), but all of the Admins will be played by me.
- You can also be something other then a Trainer, like a Pokemon Ranger or the like. If you have another idea for what your character will be, run it by me via PM, and most likely I'll accept it.
- Try and keep OOC and stuff in this thread, which I will make along with the main RP thread after at least 5 people sign up for this.
- If you do join, TRY TO BE ACTIVE SO THAT THE REST OF US DON'T HAVE TO WAIT FOR YOU. If you are inactive for a long time, we will continue onwards in the RP without you.
- One user can have more then one character to use in the RP, but the maximum number of characters per user is 6...but I'm allowed to go over for story reasons. =P
Place use this template for making your characters:
Rank (If needed):
Pokemon(Maximum of six pokemon. List thier moves, names, gender, and the like):
For an example, here are the first character I'll unviel, along with two fill-ins for story purposes. =P Also, the story is taken place in Kanto-Johto. You can have a character that's from Hoenn or another place and have pokemon from that region, but make it so that they enter the Kanto-Johto region for the story. Also, only I have allowed to leave sections as 'Unknown' or not reveal all of the character's pokemon, and it is only for plot reasons.
Name: Chris R. Kane
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Good/Bad/Neutral: Good
Rank: N/A
Appearance: A tall white man at 6 feet, 2 inches. He normally wears a blue jacket with white bordering over a plain black shirt with blue jeans. He has gentle blue eyes to match and has dirty brown hair. He also has a mini star-like birthmark on his right hand.
Personality: Chris has a strong sense of justice and will do what it takes in order for justice to be upheld. He also will help anyone in need that he sees. Chris is also strong psychically, he knows several martial art moves for self defense.
History: Chris isn't like most pokemon trainers. Instead of just blindly going off into the world at the age of 10, he attended Goldenrod University, where he did a 6-year education to earn his bachelor's degree AND to learn about how the world works. He started his pokemon journey at the age of 16, 4 years before the appearance of Team Ultima. However, he got his starter pokemon before then. It was when he was taking stroll through Route 35 during his final year in university when he found a near death Shiny Charmander. He nursed it back to health and got close to it. So it was that Charmander became his starter. He then traveled Johto to become a trainer and to assemble his team. He is currently living in Goldenrod, a bit uneasy about the Starr Corporation influence that's heavy over Goldenrod, and fearing for his Charizard's (his Charmander became a Charizard through experience during the travels through Johto) safety, seeing as it's a shiny one, and how it seems rare pokemon like that are being stolen nowaday. He doesn't trust Starr Corporation and plans on trying to find the truth behind the matter one of these days...

Age: 22
Gender: Male

Rank: Admin of Team Ultima
Appearance: Jack is a tall white man at 6 feet, he has bright blonde hair with green eyes. His normal street clothes is normally just an average pokemon league shirt you can buy at the pokemon league gatherings and a pair of either jeans that are shorts, or jeans that are pants depending on the weather.
Personality: At first he's very nice and ongoing to everyone he meets, but when he's all business for the Team, his nice and kind facade changes into a very dark and menacing persona that's not afraid to get himself dirty with the really dirty jobs or to do what it takes to advance the goals of Team Ultima. Due to this, it's unknown which side is the true Jack..the Kind Trainer, or the Menacing Monster...
History: Not much is known about Jack, but he started his pokemon journey in Hoenn. He was always in love with Mawile, seeing as it perfectly matched his personality. He spent days upon days in Victory Road, trying to catch a shiny Mawile. He never gave up, and even unleashed his menacing persona, violently beating down all the pokemon he encountered in Victory Road with no problem while searching for the shiny Mawile. After a month in Victory Road, he found the Shiny Mawile. Maybe by fate, the Mawile was also bullying the other pokemon in Victory Road, somewhat calling out to Jack. Once he cleared the Hoenn Pokemon League, he came over to Johto where his tenancy and personality did not go unnoticed by Leader Nova. Nova itself came before Jack in a Team Ultima Cloak and offered Jack the position of Commander to start out. Jack accepted and quickly rose to one of the 4 Admins due to his outstanding work. After a year of being one of the Admins, Jack is now heading toward Goldenrod City, where Team Ultima already bought him a house down there, to try and expand operations in Goldenrod so that that area of Johto would also have Ultima agents planted among other things planned for the area...

Bio: Not much is known about Johnson's past, but it is rumored he used to be a Pokemon Ranger in the region of Hoenn. Even though there is little known abot his past, alot is known about his work for Team Ultima. He's known as "The Ultima Napper" and is the go-to guy for kidnapping, both of trainers and of pokemon. He is also the expert when it comes to reconnaissance. He is also rumored to be the Commander with the best shot of getting the much coveted promotion to Admin, and also stresses reform, hating how the governments of the world and the law enforcement are running things...he joined Team Ultima to further a certain goal of his...

Personality: Flare can be quite vicious and doesn't take no for an answer, she can be loud and obnoxious and come across as big headed. She is extremly vain and loves to look the best that she can but sometimes that doesnt quite work out for her, which makes her a little angry and unaproachable but still, she can be quite loyal and is a reasonable trainer.

American League Power Rankings: Week 22
You are obviously well aware of the battle between the White Sox and Tigers right now in the AL Central. The Tigers swept the Sox for the second time this season and gain shared possession of first place for a day before falling to their Royals -- the Cleveland Indians -- and giving first place right back to the Sox.
Well, while the Tigers and White Sox have been dancing, the rest of the American League has taken advantage of that time to run right past them in the Power Rankings. Particularly that confusing team pictured up top.
1. Texas Rangers (82-55): While both other divisions have very interesting races at the moment the Rangers -- the only team in the league presently assured of a winning season -- have quietly taken control of the AL West, though a 5.5 game lead guarantees nothing. Still, there's nothing that the Rangers have shown to make you think they're going to give it up. (1)
2. New York Yankees (77-60): Then there are the Yankees who have seen their once comfortable lead pissed away thanks mostly to injuries and two teams in the division who are suddenly red hot. A 2-5 week wasn't enough to knock them out of the second spot, but another one will be. (2)
3. Tampa Bay Rays (75-62): Up and down the Rays go. They were in third two weeks ago before dropping to fifth and now they're back in third. Of course, they're also in third place within their own division and would miss the playoffs if the season started today. Sometimes life just isn't fair. (5)
4. Oakland Athletics (76-60): I thought the Athletics would take a step back after losing Bartolo Colon but they didn't. Now Brandon McCarthy is going to miss some time after taking a line drive to the head. I bet that won't affect them either. (4)
5. Los Angeles Angels (74-63): As soon as the Angels get themselves back into the playoff race they find out Jered Weaver has to get his arm looked at. Obviously, if there's something wrong with Weaver then this team is in a lot of trouble. (6)
6. Baltimore Orioles (77-60): Yes, they're finally climbing up these rankings, but not enough just yet. The thing that had been holding Baltimore back all season was its run differential, which was just mindboggling considering their record. Well, it's rapidly approaching zero at the moment and it might even break on through to the positive side eventually. (8)
7. Chicago White Sox (74-62): And we finally reach the AL Central portion of our program. If the season were to end today the White Sox would win the division and be in the playoffs, but they wouldn't be favored against anybody. The question is whether or not this team has already peaked, or if it's going through a late-season rough patch like the 2005 team did. I know which one I'm pulling for. (3)
8. Detroit Tigers (73-63): Just like in the real standings, the Tigers trail the Sox by the slimmest of margins in the power rankings. Against the White Sox this season the Tigers are 10-4. The problem is they're 63-59 against everybody else. (7)
9. Seattle Mariners (67-71): I'm going to go out on a limb and say that if this team played in the AL Central it would actually be in the playoff hunt. (10)
10. Boston Red Sox (63-75): It's good to see the Red Sox were able to rid themselves of the cancer that cost them the postseason last season. (9)
11. Toronto Blue Jays (61-75): I'd type a longer blurb but I'm afraid I'd end up on the disabled list if I did. (11)
12. Kansas City Royals (61-76): The Royals are 8-4 against the White Sox, 53-72 against everybody else. Though with three games against the Sox this week maybe the Royals can overtake Toronto or Boston in the rankings. (12)
13. Minnesota Twins (56-81): Maybe if the Twins had spread out the 18 runs against us on Tuesday to their other 14 games against us they wouldn't be 4-11 versus the Sox this season. (13)
14. Cleveland Indians (58-79): Not going to say anything mean about you, Cleveland. You took two of three from the Tigers this week and I consider you heroes for that. (14)
Last week's rankings can be found here.

2010 Installations
New Albany Public Art Project: Bicentennial Series
The New Albany Public Art Project: Bicentennial Series is a multi-year outdoor exhibition of temporary art installations that interpret New Albany's rich history and heritage through the eyes of artists. In the spring of 2010, five temporary works of art were installed in the downtown historic district. Because of its importance to the founding and development of New Albany, the Ohio River is the basis for the historic themes that served as inspiration for the first five works of art. Themes exploring Industry and Agriculture serve as the inspiration for the three 2011 artworks. A walking tour booklet, which includes a map of the installation sites and information about the artists and historical themes, will be available free of charge at locations around town and online by clicking HERE. We also invite you to visit the Public Art Project's website for more information: http://www.napublicart.org/.
The project originated from a partnership between the Carnegie Center for Art & History and the New Albany Urban Enterprise Association. It perfectly aligns the mission of the Carnegie Center for Art & History to present and interpret our community's history and to promote an appreciation of the visual arts with the Urban Enterprise Association's mission to improve New Albany's urban core. Both organizations are grateful to the project sponsors, Horseshoe Foundation of Floyd County, General Mills Foundation, J. Michael and Noelle Gohmann, and The News and Tribune, and Community Donors; as well as the artists, Dominic Guarnaschelli, Scott Scarboro, Janis Martin, Ruth Andrews, Michael Slaski, Leticia Bajuyo, J. Daniel Graham, John King, Valerie Sullivan Fuchs and Brad White; and the site owners, City of New Albany, New Albanian Brewing Company, St. Marks Church, River City Winery, YMCA and Mike and David Futter; along with the many community members and businesses who have helped to make the project a success.

Bahn: ADs Say Search Facing Razorbacks' Long Will Take Research, Planning And Instinct
by Chris Bahn on Friday, Oct. 19, 2012 11:59 am

An athletic director's daily to-do list is a lengthy one.
Running a clean program, making sure the NCAA keeps its distance, ranks high among the priorities. Providing the resources to ensure athletes make academic progress is a part of the job often overlooked by outsiders. Finding ways to engage fans and keep them buying tickets has an impact on the bottom line. Raising money and finding other sources of revenue to fund what amounts to a small corporation is critical.
All of the responsibilities are important to keeping an operation like the Razorbacks' $75.5 million athletic department running smoothly. Nothing, though, matters quite like hiring a football coach. And nothing on an athletic director's plate is quite as demanding as the process that accompanies the selection.
ArkansasSports360.com recently visited with four BCS conference athletic directors in charge of football coaching searches last season. Each had his own approach, but all of the administrators — Arizona's Greg Byrne, Illinois' Mike Thomas, North Carolina's Bubba Cunningham and Washington State's Bill Moos — agreed that a football coaching search is as consuming as it gets.
Finding somebody to win games and run the football program often has an impact on all other areas the athletic director is charged with overseeing. Winning coaches bring in top recruits and top donors. Football generates millions of dollars, is a source of civic pride and can lead to upticks in campus enrollment.
There is no overstating the importance.
"Personnel decisions in any organization are the most critical. That's going to determine your success," the Tar Heels' Cunningham said. "But since choosing a football coach is so visible and it's so high-profile, it's probably the most pressure packed decision you're making in a short period of time."
Choosing a coach must often be done in a matter of days. One-on-one, in person time with a candidate is usually limited to a couple of hours. That handful of days and precious few hours when the work happens can have years of impact on a football program, university and community.
Finding the right coach is a taxing process that requires extensive background checks, an understanding of a program's fan base, knowledge of what works in college football and, in the end, nothing more than intuition. Like picking the right combination of numbers on a winning lottery ticket, hitting the jackpot when choosing a coach ultimately comes down to a feeling.
"Part of it, it's just your gut instincts," Thomas said.
Achieving this mix of research, detective work and feel for a candidate is the task that faces Arkansas Athletic Director Jeff Long today. He fired Bobby Petrino in April and hopes to have a coach in place by mid-December.
It is, Long notes, challenging work.
"No one enjoys doing a high profile search for a football coach or a basketball coach," Long said. "They're not enjoyable processes. They're enjoyable when they're done and you've hired the right person. But it's a grueling process."
Paralysis By Analysis
Because person-to-person contact is often limited, compiling background on candidates is a critical part of the hiring process.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Cunningham at North Carolina prefers using search firms, something he utilized when hiring Larry Fedora from Southern Miss. Moos jokes he served as chairman of Washington State's committee of one, the same position he held when major personnel decisions were made while he was at Oregon.
Calls are made to other athletic directors, coaches and in some cases former players. Athletic directors want to get a feel for what a coach is all about.
No matter who is gathering and processing the information, it's typically handled in a matter of days. It is rare for the background portion of the hire to stretch beyond a couple of weeks.
Firing Petrino in April gave Long what amounts to an eight-month head start on the search. While there are benefits to candidates knowing well in advance that the job is open, Long recently described the extra time as a "blessing and a curse."
Information is compiled to help move coaches between the "maybe," "yes" and "no" piles. Studying the resume, philosophies and personality of a coach aid the process.
Imagine the flaws you can find when evaluating over a period of months. Conversely, such an open timeline provides plenty of time to find reasons a candidate could work at your school.
Ever eaten at a restaurant with seemingly endless options on the menu? Something as simple as ordering dinner can become an ordeal as you talk yourself in and out of what you want to eat.
Byrne experienced a relatively enlogated search at Arizona. He fired Mike Stoops on Oct. 11, 2011. More than a month passed before Rich Rodriguez was announced as the Wildcats' coach.
That was more than enough time to evaluate and research.
"You can potentially have a little bit of paralysis by analysis if you're not careful," Byrne said.
Long has idea of what he is looking for in the Razorbacks' next head coach. He has said he isn't ruling out assistant coaches, though the preference would seem to be a person with a record of success with his own program.
Leadership is the No. 1 quality Long lists. He won't get into whether he prefers a defensive or offensive-minded coach. These are among the qualities he's weighing in the making the decision.
There is plenty of time to figure out who fits Long's criteria. And more than enough time for him to change his mind between now and December.
Fit Factor
Cincinnati's last three coaches are a combined 71-34 (.676) with seven bowl appearances in nine seasons. Thomas, who was the athletic director for the Bearcats from 2005-2011, worked with all three for a time. He inherited Mark Dantonio and hired Brian Kelly and Butch Jones.
Finding the next Dantonio (now at Michigan State), Kelly (now at Notre Dame) or Jones (a popular name in national coaching search chatter) was one of the first responsibilities Thomas had when he took over at Illinois last year.
When hiring Tim Beckman from Toledo last winter, Thomas said he looked for certain characteristics he saw in those other coaches. He evaluated win-loss records, recruiting ability, academic philosophy and other criteria when deciding if a coach has the "it" factor.
"You look at patterns of success," Thomas said. "Then you ask, 'Do they fit?' "
Deciding if a coach fits takes on different meanings at different jobs. An athletic director can adjust his idea of fit based on the school.
A rebuilding program might need a coach capable of mixing it up with locals at fish fries to help energize the fan base and sell tickets. Petrino wasn't the pep rally type, but his demand for attention and seething confidence turned out to be the perfect match for an Arkansas program often lost in the shuffle among its SEC brethren.
Petrino got outsiders to reserve a spot at the adult table for the Razorbacks, often viewed as a little brother and not to be taken seriously in the league. He embraced the state's natural beauty and had philanthropic interests.
In that regard he was perfect for Arkansas.
Personality matters. Geography and background are taken into consideration, but as Byrne's hiring history illustrates, those factors don't necessarily eliminate a candidate.
Byrne was responsible for getting Rodriguez, the former Michigan and West Virginia coach, to Tucson, Ariz., a town of nearly 600,000 in the Sonoran Desert valley. He lured Pennsylvania native Dan Mullen from a job at Florida to Mississippi State, located in Starkville, Miss., a town of 23,000 that critics mockingly refer to as "StarkVegas."
Rodriguez and Mullen have so far proven to be solid matches for their current jobs. They have built a bond with the fans, town and university.
Establishing a comfort level with the athletic director is also critical. Those limited hours face to face before an offer comes are all the employer and employee have to judge how they will work together.
"You don't necessarily need to be fishing buddies, but you better have a comfort level with each other," Byrne said. "… Combine that with making sure they have a sound fundamental background that will transition into them being a good head coach at your university."
'Too Many Chefs'
Among the candidates for the Arkansas job in 2007 were then-Clemson coach Tommy Bowden and Wake Forest's Jim Grobe. Both were publicly linked to the job. Both left Arkansas still searching as they signed bigger contracts at their schools.
Long said discerning who is interested in the job and who wants leverage at his current school can be a challenge. There is no way to know for sure until a coach accepts or passes.
"Who is truly interested in this job and all the Razorback program has to offer? And who truly just wants to make sure their current employer appreciates them even more? So that's a challenge," Long said.
Guarding against getting played can require a hardline stance. Some athletic directors (like Long) won't deal directly with agents. Others make it clear up front that they will dismiss any candidate who leaks information to the press in hopes of creating a bidding war.
Byrne is up front with candidates when he tells them he doesn't want to see their names mentioned in media reports. If word of an interview leaked to the press, that coach was getting marked off Byrne's list.
"I told every candidate I talked to or had information on that if it came out 'according to sources' that they were now the leading candidate or they'd interviewed, I'd assume that they weren't interested in the job," Byrne said.
Phone calls aren't just coming from agents. School presidents, board of trustee members, boosters and casual fans are all vying for the athletic director's ear or eyeballs. In September alone, Long received more than 150 pages of email pertaining to his search, correspondence ranging from criticism of his firing of Petrino to a fraternity consultant offering his services as coach.
It gets noisy.
Having staff or a support system of other athletic directors and coaches to help filter it all helps. But having too many folks involved can complicate the process.
There is also a host of unwritten rules — calling for permission to talk, not interviewing candidates until you fire the coach currently on your payroll — that can slow a search.
Long said recently he is trying to navigate the line between being respectful of other schools, while keeping his own school's best interests in mind. It's the approach Moos took when landing Leach.
"There were other schools extremely interested in Mike Leach taking days and weeks to assemble a search committee while I was down there hiring him," Moos said. "You can get bogged down with too many chefs in the kitchen. You have to move when you have your guy."
'Hold Your Breath'
Those months between the hire and first game can be vital to a program's success, especially when it comes to season ticket sales. Hire the right candidate and confidence among the fan base will surge.
Leach is a perfect example of the energy a hire can create. Announcing Leach at Washington State sent a jolt through the Cougars fan base.
In less than two weeks WSU sold 21 suites in a stadium that wasn't even built. An additional 44 loge boxes were sold. A month after Leach was hired, 4,000 additional season ticket packages were sold and donations to the Cougar Club (WSU's booster club) reached a record level.
"We had a whole bunch of caged Cougars," Moos said. "When we opened the doors, they came out prowling."
Arkansas has seen the impact a successful coach can have. Petrino helped get the team into the national conversation with a 21-5 record over two seasons. His Razorbacks were ranked in the Top 10 to end 2010 and 2011.
Razorback Foundation memberships grew with the success. Donations and season ticket sales hit record levels.
It is imperative Long find somebody who can continue that momentum in the offseason. Long-term success for the football program and athletic department depend on it.
That is easier said than done, of course.
For all the work that goes into the hire, there are still no guarantees. Cunningham, who has been part of the hiring process at Tulsa and North Carolina, said that no matter how much work goes into finding a coach and how popular the selection might be, no hire is ever a sure thing.
"It is important that the person have credibility, can inspire some confidence and direction," Cunningham said. "And then it's going to take, generally from December until September, to hold your breath and hope this person can actually do what you're expecting them to do."

Lew, your post on the recent anti-Cayman article in The Nation was excellent, and in a word, the answer to your question is "yes." As one who has read The Nation for more than three decades, I can say that there has been no clearer advocate of totalitarian government than The Nation, outside of the outright Marxist publications.
What is interesting is that this publication, which was beating the anti-war drums during the Bush administration, now is advocating (at last resort, but still an option) invasion of another country simply to find a way to get tax revenue. It also wants the government to make "tax evasion" (i.e., not giving the government enough of your own money to satisfy the Left) a "crime" equal with murder and rape.I am not surprised at all at what we are seeing from the Left. A lot of libertarians believed we could break bread with the Hard Left when both groups were protesting the predations of the Bush-Cheney government, but I was not one of them.
Now that the Left is fully empowered in the Obama administration, we are seeing the fury of these people unleashed. They are demanding ruinous taxation, seizure of businesses, forced labor, and now military invasions, along with restrictions on trade and travel.
I find it quite interesting that The Nation now demands a policy toward the Caymans to be identical with the U.S. policy toward Cuba. No American publication has condemned the government's Cuba policy more than The Nation, and now we see that it uses the Cuba policy to justify an attack on another country now that the Left is in power.
Leftists are not principled people. They really believe that rights are what the government allows us to have, and that all rights are expendable when the Left is in power. In my lifetime, the single most murderous regime I have seen was the Pol Pot regime in Cambodia, yet there was not a single criticism of that government and its atrocities in The Nation.
How do I know? I looked through every issue of that publication during the time of Pol Pot and for many years after the Vietnamese government invaded Cambodia and threw out that evil regime. Furthermore, during that period, The Nation continued to declare that any Marxist-led takeover was a "liberation" of people.
So, no, I am not surprised at all. The Left is only getting started, and since Jim Wallis has declared that God is on the side of the Obama government, we can look for huge support for this regime's predations from all sides, not just the Marxist Left.4:49 am on May 17, 2009 Email Bill Anderson

I went in to talk to say hi to a friend of mine and he told me that I should apply. A woman (who turned out to be the manager) handed me an application and we just started having casual conversation. I felt very comfortable since I didnt know who she was.
Well I got a call back three or four days later from another manager who asked me to come in for an interview.
When I got there we sat down and it was very pleasant. She asked me about my experiences. She also explained several aspects of the job and asked how comfortable i felt doing tasks that needed to be done (i.e asking for credit cards and cleaning up).
After I was done with the interview, she asked me to stay for an hour so she can observe my interaction with customers. Then finally, I was asked to pick out several outfits so they can sense my fashion style.
After all of that, she asked me for my references and that was that.

First off, the District Manager called me to tell me that she wanted to meet with me but did not tell me where (this was a couple of days before the scheduled interview date). The day of the interview arrives. I arrive to the city where I was supposed to be interviewing with no clue as to where exactly I would be meeting the manager. She finally calls 20 minutes before the interview to tell me to meet her at a restaurant. I arrive at the restaurant and she begins to babble....and I mean BABBLE -- telling me how unorganized and unprepared she is and that the store needs to be fully staffed within the next 2 weeks and that I was her FIRST interview!!! She proceeded to tell me that the management positions needed to be filled in 2 days but that she did not have many prospects for either of the new store's positions. The position was projected to be seasonal (summer through November) because of the location which meant no definite, long term job status . She refused to discuss salary with me but proceeded to tell me that the dress code was limited to JUST Cache clothing which, she stated, were quite "pricey". How do you expect employees of an NSO to be able to purchase your pricey products before the store opens? I'm sure that I will receive an offer but will gladly decline. This entire interview was a joke to me and really scarred my perspective of Cache entirely.Interview Questions

This is a commission-based environment, so every question that I was asked focused on how well I could sell and how those sales were tracked. I've worked in retail for about nine years, but only one year of my experience was based on commission. To the hiring manager, none of my other retail experience was relevant, except that single commission-based year. Sales are tracked in ten different categories. You are expected to ask EVERY customer to open a Cache account, and the hiring manager admitted that they are very difficult to get customers to open. Dress code is head to toe Cache, with the exception of black. So, if you don't have a lot of black or Cache apparel in your wardrobe, except to spend most of your paycheck on clothing. The two people that I had contact with were very pleasant. Overall, it was an okay interview experience; I just didn't have enough commission-based selling experience.Interview Questions

Steve Harvey, renowned comedian, author, and radio and television host, put three moms to the test to design a dress for his fashion women's collection that works for the office and beyond. To highlight the collection's focus on offering modern women comfortable yet stylish outfits that fit their active lifestyles, the moms were challenged to create a day-to-night transitional look in a woman's size 4 and 16.
Ganier, a mother of three who graduated from the International Academy of Design & Technology in Chicago and now owns her own clothing design company called Ganier Designs, described her piece as "an alternative corporate look." Her knee-length, cream-colored dress is appropriate for formal office settings, while the draped neckline paired with added accessories can easily transition it into an exciting outfit for a night out.
Ganier's dress will be sold online and at K&G stores in women's sizes small – 3x for $49.99.Harvey's daughter, Karli Harvey, who is also the Creative Director of the Steve Harvey Women's Collection carried exclusively at K&G stores, joined Mary Beth Blake, Executive Vice President at Men's Wearhouse, Inc., to pick the challenge winner. "Elysia's dress was beautifully designed to be flattering and comfortable for professional women of all sizes, which complements the offerings in our exclusive Steve Harvey Women's Collection," Blake said. "K&G offers women affordable fashion that makes them look and feel great, and the Designing Moms Challenge allowed us to celebrate our customers' amazing talents while offering our shoppers a unique benefit — a dress created for real women, by a real woman."
