A brief video on Pax Populi Tutoring Services
Pax Populi is a network of people dedicated to advancing peace everywhere, but the focus of our work is Afghanistan. We have several programs through which we act on our mission, but since mid-2013 we have placed particular emphasis on our peace through education initiative, the Pax Populi Tutoring program. Through this, fluent English speakers from around the world provide English tutoring to students in Afghanistan via video conferencing. Through this exchange, both tutors and tutees learn much about each other's culture, while Afghans have an opportunity to better develop a valuable skill for engaging in international cultural and economic exchanges.
Please take a look at Pax Populi's News page for all stories or select a category area in the drop down tab at the end down of this page. page for all stories or select a category area at the end down of this page. Since 2013 we have also delivered two International initiatives the "Be Inspired" project which further extended our advocacy work into the promotion of Women's Right in Afghanistan and the "Voices for Peace" project which engaged people from around the world to share their hopes and ideas for the advancement of peace in Afghanistan and internationally.
Please check out the Pax Populi website further and see how we are supporting the advancement of peace.

Game GearGame Players
As with the other Shining Force titles, the emphasis here is on unit combat involving dozens of opponents over a whole battlefield, instead of individual combatants duking it out for one fight. Buy this one, it's got the goods.
Game GearRPGFan
For those who want a choice, the Sega CD version is much better, but for the sake of portability, and if you don't have a Sega CD, I guess this Game Gear port will have to do. And, since the story is the story is the same as the Sega CD version, it would be a pitiful waste of time for those who had already played the Sega CD version which was released slightly earlier than this Game Gear port.
Game GearLegendra
Très proche du premier gaiden, Shining Force: The Sword of Hajya apporte quelques améliorations au gameplay, une plus grande variété dans les combats et une durée de vie revue à la hausse. Si le challenge accru plaira aux gamers avertis, le mauvais équilibrage des magies et le design en baisse l'empêchent de totalement surpasser son ainé, même si l'on reste devant un indispensable de la console.
Game GearElectronic Gaming Monthly (EGM)
A nice RPG offering for the portable system! Although it is scaled down from the 16-bit big brother version, this one keeps almost all the same elements. There are several hours of gameplay in this one, with the music and graphics taking first chair. This is the type of game made for the portable system when you take a long trip.

Daiwa Lady Samurai Spinning Combo
Great Pole
Got the pole for my mothers birthday very affordable and great for the price. She loved it. Would recommend it to others.
February 4, 2015
Not satisfied
I was not very satisfied with this fishing pole. It is very flimsy and even when i am casting out with no weights i feel like it will break. The cute colors are not enough to make this a good purchase and i don't think i will continue to use this pole.
September 24, 2014
Love this...purchased for my 8 year old daughter...perfect!
September 23, 2014
Great starter rod for kids.
My daughter has just taken up the sport and is very happy with it.
September 22, 2014
Great for the price
Worked perfect for family camping trips and occasional fishing.
September 2, 2014
Great rod and reel deal
Bought this combo for my daughter for her 6th birthday. First cast went over a tree about 20 yards away. Casts really smoothand is fun to use. I do question the durability because some parts are plastic, but for the price it's a great buy.
August 16, 2014
This product was very good with one exception. It is definitely not a good reel for beginners. The face would have a problem closing and would cause large tangles. This was not an issue for an amateur fisherman however.
July 16, 2014
nice for price
This is a nice pôle for the ladies that love pink.My aide had to have ŕ pôle this year ŕ really liked this one because it was pink.Then my dauther saw. It and had to go buy one too.

excellent combo
Great rod and reel combo. Very smooth reel action and good sensitivity from the pole. And I got two on sale in store, can't beat the deal.

The Nebraska Cornhuskers represent the University of Nebraska–Lincoln in bowling. The program started out as a club sport along with men's bowling, but became a varsity sport in 1996 and an official NCAA sport in 2003. The Cornhuskers have established themselves as a powerhouse, winning the first two NCAA championships and three out of the first six. The Huskers have never been ranked lower than 8th place since bowling has become an NCAA sport. They have won four national championships, finished runner-up once, tied for third place three times and tied for seventh place.
Bowling has been an official varsity sport at Lincoln since the 1996–1997 season. Before bowling became a varsity sport, it was a club sport coached by Bill Straub who led the club team to two national IBC titles in 1991 and 1995. Bill Straub was hired as the full-time bowling coach and has led the team to three more IBC titles in 1997, 1999 and 2001. In 2003, the NCAA created a tournament for Women's bowling and the Nebraska Women's Bowling team has been one of the top college bowling teams since the start of NCAA competition, which the Huskers won the first two national titles in a row, came in third place during the third NCAA tournament and have won three of the first six NCAA tournaments. They added their NCAA-best fourth title in 2013. The Huskers have been ranked in the top 5 teams since 1990 and have never been ranked below 17th place. The Huskers can be seen bowling at the East Campus Bowling Lanes.
2006–2007 season[edit]
The Huskers started the 2006–2007 season off ranked No. 2 in the nation after a surprising loss during last years NCAA tournament to end an undefeated season. This year, the Huskers have won five tournament titles in eight tries. The Huskers currently hold a 73–15 record for the year, led by junior Lindsay Baker who has won two tournament titles this year at the Morgan State and Ozark Invitational tournaments.

Liberia - The supply of an experimental drug to treat the deadly Ebola virus is exhausted after the last doses were earmarked to be sent to West Africa, the company that makes ZMapp said Monday. The Liberian government said President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf made a direct appeal Friday to U.S. President Barrack Obama for the drug to treat doctors infected during an outbreak that has killed more than 1,000 people in Liberia, Sierra Leone, Guinea and Nigeria. A spokesperson for the Health and Human Services Department said U.S. authorities helped by connecting the drug maker with Liberian officials, Reuters reported. It was not clear when the drug would be delivered.

Wannabe: How the Spice Girls Reinvented Pop FameEveryone knows who the Spice Girls Are. Posh, Sporty, Baby, Scary and Ginger collectively became the most famous pop trademark of the 1990s. For a while they were the biggest-selling act on planet pop, while each of them - Victoria Beckham, Melanie Brown, Emma Bunton, Melanie Chisholm and Geri Halliwell still automatically commans front page/cover feature status in her own right. Yet despite the acres of newsprint devoted to their comings and goings, the innumerable perky soundbites and endless in your face photospreads, remarkably little effort has been put into analysing and explaining the Spice Girls phenomenon and even less credit given for the spectacular and unprecedented scale of their achievements. This will be the first book to examine the life and times of the Spice Girls in a way that puts the group and their music into a broader social and historical context. Combining meticulously researched biographical narrative with an insider's account of pop in the 1990s and 2000s it will open a window onto the backstage lot of Spiceworld and much more besides. |

Connellsville native's images capture the 'Emerald Isle'
Melissa Galik didn't witness St. Patrick's Day's "Wearin' 'o the Green" when she visited Ireland, but she sure reveled in "seein' 'o the green."
The Emerald Isle was almost — but not quite — in full bloom when Galik traveled there in May 2009, but she saw plenty shades of green. Galik, who describes herself as "three-fourths" Irish, had longed to visit Ireland ever since she was a small girl growing up in Connellsville. Her grandfather, the late Mark Hanlon (who was a Dunbar Township tax collector for many years), enthralled Melissa and her brother about the Hanlon family's Irish roots.
Galik's mother, Rose Marie Galik (who lives on Ridge Boulevard, Dunbar Township), visited Ireland several years ago. Emerald green with envy, Melissa decided an overseas visit was long overdue.
Melissa has lived in Florida (near Tampa) for more than 10 years. Her father, Jack Galik, and stepmother, Geraldine (Cuddihy) Galik, live near her. Melissa traveled to Ireland with Geraldine to visit Geraldine's relatives.
10-day venture to County Clare
Galik and her stepmom stayed in southern Ireland in Maurice Mills, County Clare, with the Cuddihy and Howley families, during their 10-day jaunt — long enough to have a close look at daily Irish living. "The nuclear family unit there is still strongly intact," Galik emphasized. "Homes are much smaller and space is used efficiently."
She was equally impressed with Ireland's lush landscapes, which were the perfect backdrop for photographs. She snapped more than 1,500 photos — including many of Spring Gentian, a purplish flower that grows only in southern Ireland. "I couldn't get enough pictures!" Galik exclaimed.
After she returned home, her mother was so impressed by the images that she suggested Galik sell some of the photos at ArtWorks Connellsville. So far, several 8 by 10s have been purchased and others remain available at the West Crawford Avenue gallery.
Enjoyed seeing ancient with new
"I couldn't believe how ancient buildings, including castles, were mixed in with newer buildings. You can walk right up to them and go inside. Some of them go all the way back to Medieval times," said Galik. "You don't see vandalism and graffiti the way you do in the United States. Irish people preserve their culture and respect their heritage."
Her tour guide was a teenager nearing high school graduation, after which she planned to enter Ireland's police force, which is called The Guard. "Their education system focuses on careers at a very early age."
The Connellsville native also saw Ireland's health care up close, as Geraldine's father was ill during their visit. "The doctor came right to their house and wrote prescriptions for medication and tests," she explained. "People in Ireland don't run to the emergency room right away. I think physicians recommend a hospital stay. Their medical treatment seemed much more personal than ours."
'Bangers & Mash'? No, Thank you!
Galik said that Irish cuisine is blander than American food, but noted that it is high in quality and fresh, without preservatives. Her favorite meal was seafood chowder — seafood is most popular because Ireland is an island — brown bread and Hennessy cognac. She screwed up the courage to sample blood pudding ("It was good, actually") but professed dislike for "bangers and mash" (sausages and potatoes). "There was an odd spice in them and they were too fatty."
Coming from staunch Roman Catholic stock, Galik was particularly interested in Ireland's religious practices. "We were lucky enough to attend a First Holy Communion service and party. It was like a small wedding," she said. "The number of extended family members was amazing. The children also have great respect for their family's religious beliefs."
St. Patrick's Day wasn't even mentioned during Galik's "seein' 'o the green."
"I think Americans make a bigger deal about St. Patrick's Day than they do in Ireland," said Galik, who vows she will make an encore visit to the Emerald Isle in June 2014. "I'm already making my plans."

WHOI scientist Judith McDowell said that acute toxicity levels of BTEX are in the range of 5 to 50 milligrams per liter for aquatic organisms--100 to 1,000 times greater than that observed in the plume.
Sublethal effects, including neurological impairment, are observed at lower levels, she said.
"In most instances the BTEX compounds are volatilized very quickly, such that exposure duration is very short," McDowell said. "The persistence of BTEX at depth poses an interesting question as to the potential effects of these compounds on mid-water organisms."
A critical component of the study was a one-of-a-kind fluid sample the team collected directly from the broken riser at the Macondo well.
To accomplish this, the team used an isobaric gas-tight sampler, a unique piece of equipment developed by WHOI geochemist Jeff Seewald and his colleagues, and intended for use collecting fluids from deep-sea hydrothermal vents.
With the gas-tight sampler and other necessary equipment, the lead scientists were shuttled from their active research vessel to a smaller boat and brought to the Ocean Intervention III, operating above the Macondo well.
They were then given 12 hours--working with many unknowns--to do something never done before.
Using an oil industry remotely operated vehicle, they maneuvered the gas-tight sampler to the source of the spill to capture an "end-member" sample of fluid as it exited the riser pipe.
No other such sample exists.
By analyzing this sample, the scientists were able to determine what was in fluid spewing from the Macondo well before nature had a chance to weather it and the exact ratio of gas and oil in the fluid.
"Getting this sample was probably the most dramatic and thrilling thing I have done in my life," Reddy said.
Using petroleum industry terms, they found a gas-to-oil ratio (GOR) of 1,

Steven Boone over at The House Next Door has seen the latest -- er, "Final" -- cut of what may now, 25 years after its debut, be "Ridley Scott's" "Blade Runner," in the new version premiering at the New York Film Festival. Above all, Boone was wowed by the digital presentation: "The Final Cut" is remastered from original 35mm elements and transferred to High Definition digital video at 4K (4096 horizontal pixel) resolution. Projected in HD at 24 frames a second for this year's New York Film Festival, this "Blade Runner" has no visible grain, dirt or scratches, stuttering frames, reel-change "cigarette burns" or soft-focus moments when the film gets loose in the projector gate. Funny how I thought I'd miss all those things, their "organic" qualities, but this restoration gives us a pristine image without sacrificing warmth. The picture even fooled our editor, who at first thought he was looking at a 35mm projection. This "Blade Runner" removes every barrier to getting lost in Scott's fire-and-rain Los Angeles short of presenting it as interactive theater.I saw the original version first-run in 70 mm at Seattle's Cinerama Theater in 1982, and grain was evident, probably for a couple reasons: 1) many of the visual effects involved multiple, non-digital exposures; and 2) the film wasn't actually shot in 70 mm, but was blown up from 35 mm.
According to an extensive, multi-sourced Wikipedia article on the film, the 1990 version advertised as a "Director's Cut" and shown at the Nuart in LA and the Castro in San Francisco was actually a 70 mm workprint. (In the days before digital, effects were often done in 70 mm, even for 35 mm releases, for better optical quality.) Scott approved the 1992 Director's Cut, but wasn't entirely satisfied with it. Wikipedia offers comparisons of the various versions, citing the primary changes as: * The removal of Deckard's explanatory voice-over * The re-insertion of a dream sequence of a unicorn running through a forest * The removal of the studio-imposed "happy ending," including some associated visuals which had originally run under the film's end-credits.It was apparent from the beginning that the voiceover was a big problem -- and Harrison Ford (who didn't get on with Scott, much less the studio execs who were calling him in to read narration) has said he did it badly and begrudgingly, hoping they wouldn't even be able to use it. (It's that cringe-worthy at times.) Scott, however, says he wasn't taken off the picture, and that he completed the original release version after it tested badly with audiences.
But the movie was a theatrical flop anyway, producing rentals of only $14.8 million at roughly the same time "E.T." was on its way to zooming past $300 million. According to a definitive piece by Kenneth Turan in the Los Angeles Times Magazine (September 13, 1992), the film may have died then and there. But the new home video market extended its commercial termination date: "Blade Runner's" availability on video kept it alive in the eyes of the always loyal science-fiction crowd, and gradually, over time, the film's visual qualities and the uncanniness with which it had seemed to see the future began to outweigh its narrative flaws. Scott says he saw the interest rise, "And I thought, 'My God, we must have misfired somewhere; a lot of people like this movie.' " And not just in this country. In Japan, where the film had always been successful, "I was treated like a king," art director [Snyder reports. "The fans would be too in awe to even look at you." The film's look began to show up in art direction and design: Terry Gilliam's "Brazil" and the stage design for the Rolling Stones' Steel Wheels tour were influenced by "Blade Runner." And when laser discs appeared on the market, "Blade Runner" was one of the films that everyone just had to get. It became Voyager's top-selling disc immediately upon its release in 1989, never losing the No. 1 spot. (Are spoiler alerts now becoming unfashionable because we should just assume everybody's seen the movie or knows the ending? I don't care. This is one.)
In Sunday's New York Times ("A Cult Classic Restored, Again"), Scott says of Ford's character, Deckard: "Yes, he's a replicant. He was always a replicant."

I agree, the meaning behind it is very sweet! But the spelling itself is awful, and would probably reflect badly on your sister, as it looks quite teen-mom. I love Juliana/Julianna Leigh, as suggested above. Very classy, and Julianna is one i rarely hear.
Logically i know that Elleighana is probably pronounced as Eliana, but my brain jerks trying to pronounce it ay-lee-ha-naI hope to be a mom one day. For now I enjoy being a name lover.

For speed traps, Ontario is worst in North America, poll says
An online poll by a drivers' group ranks Mississauga fifth-worst in the large cities category.

Share via Email
Ontario has the worst speed traps in North America, says a poll based on online votes published by the U.S.-based National Motorists Association.
The self-described drivers' rights organization runs the National Speed Trap Exchange website, which allows the public to post locations and descriptions of apparent speed traps. Cities, provinces and states were then ranked by the number of people who clicked in agreement with user-posted hot spots for cops lurking with radar guns. Numbers were adjusted for population.
Mississauga came in fifth for "worst speed trap cities" with populations over 50,000, while Windsor was third and Hamilton fourth. The NMA, which advocates for increased speed limits and an end to speed traps, calculated the rankings based on postings from the past five years.
Spokesperson John Bowden said the poll is meant to draw attention to the prevalence of speed traps and the public's dislike of them.
"They represent an abuse against motorists, they don't improve highway safety, and in reality, they don't slow traffic speeds down, either; there are better ways to do that," said Bowden, whose organization has 9,000 members and argues that many speed limits are set too low, causing congestion and greater risk of collision.
Ontario's roads are the safest in North America, said Sgt. Dave Woodford of the OPP traffic safety division.
He said the OPP doesn't use "speed traps," though officers may focus efforts on problem areas. And going faster is not safer, Woodford said.
"I would say in the majority of our fatals and serious crashes, speed is a factor," said Woodford. "They're going too fast. To increase the speed limit just encourages people to go faster. And I think that is unsafe."
Ministry of Transportation spokesperson Bob Nichols said Ontario had the lowest fatality rate in North America in 2009, at 0.62 per 10,000 licensed drivers. Speed was a factor in 20 per cent of the 564 fatalities that year, Nichols said in an email.
"Considerable research has been conducted on the effects of changing the posted speed limit, particularly in the United States," said Nichols. "Experience in other jurisdictions indicates that fatal collisions can increase with higher speed limits."
Top Mississauga speed trap spots:
Cawthra Rd. near Dundas St. W.
Hurontario St. near Central Prkwy.
Britannia Rd. W. near Millcreek Dr.
Eglinton Ave. W. near Inverness Blvd.
Cawthra Rd. near South Service Rd.

They provide convenient ways to organize homes, pay bills, go shopping, study, listen to music and in many cases watch television shows. An innovative way to complete these types of tasks is to use a notebook. These personal computers are mobile, small, powerful and convenient.

This monograph is a report of past experiences and present knowledge of those diseases of the spleen treated by splenectomy. All the patients on whom splenectomy was performed as an elective procedure during the past 15 years have been studied, and their present physical status is evaluated. There is a listing of the normal functions of the spleen so far as they are known. The 15 year period in which this study was conducted extended from July 1934 to July 1949. A total of 204 spleens were removed, and, of these, 72 were removed for traumatic splenic rupture. One hundred and thirty-two spleens were removed for splenic malfunctions or enlargements. Nine hospital deaths were reported, giving a hospital mortality rate of 7.6 per cent. Although abbreviated, the material in this work is well presented and well correlated. It is unfortunate that the section dealing with the technic of splenectomy did

What can you do with an embroidery hoop besides making hand embroidery? Lots of things! With a little stitching, glue, and ingenuity, embroidery hoops of all shapes and sizes can be used to create calendars, clocks, photo albums, jewelry, key racks, storage, and artwork using applique, embroidery, crochet, paper craft, painting, stamping, cross stitch, and patchwork.
My post a couple of weeks ago on handmade Halloween costumes got me thinking: how many quilters are also sewing fabric to make garments?
Where do you get your inspiration for art quilts? Quilting artists get asked that question all the time.
Today I'm sharing some of my favorite gift ideas to make for your friends and family, as well as gifts for quilters that would be welcome at your guild's holiday party swap--or under your own tree.
Playing with your pre-programmed sewing machine stitches can be a wonderful way to spend a rainy afternoon. The plethora of stitches on some machines could keep you busy for hours--but what about some of the utilitarian stitches we all know and love?
How do you find time to work on your fabric art? It's a question I hear often (sometimes in my own head).
For a period of time, I made fabric and paper quilts using vintage maps. I stitched a collage of fabric to make the bird (and sometimes flowers, too), then stitched the bird (and flowers) onto the maps.
Hand embroidery often has an old-fashioned connotation, especially if you grew up following hand embroidery patterns for cross stitch or hand stitching Bo Peep-like ladies on pillow cases.
Recently, our online editor, Cate Prato, put out a plea on Facebook, regarding the sudden change in tension on her sewing machine stitches Sewing friends, I need advice. I have been machine piecing a quilt top for a couple hours without incident.
Pressed for time (or new to quilting) but still want to sew quilt projects that sing? Try the simple quilting patterns in our updated free eBook, Quick & Easy Quilts: 4 Free Easy Quilt Patterns.
I'm what you might call a hasty (read: impatient) stitcher. Methodical is not in my vocabulary. As a result, I make a lot of mistakes that I have to undo when embroidering or sewing beads on fabric. More often than not, I end up cutting the thread and starting over, all the while trying to block out the sound of my mother's voice in my head tsking, "Haste makes waste."
Quilted bags are among my favorite sewing projects. Why? They are easy to make and it's one project where no one ever asks, "What are you going to do with it?" Everyone knows how useful bags--especially quilted tote bags--can be. In my opinion, you can never have enough.
Do you long to make a quilt but don't know where to start? Or do you have a friend who could lessons on quilting for beginners? We have the perfect starter's guide, and it includes free quilt patterns for beginners!
The post reminded me once again of how many creative surface embellishment ideas we fiber artists have at our disposal. From stitching, to embroidery, to sewing beads on fabric, and more, embellishing techniques are part of our everyday repertoire. It's that extra touch that makes even a humble bag a work of art.
I've often blogged about how hand embroidery projects are great for creating on-the-go. But even I was amazed when I saw new QATV host Susan Brubaker Knapp at Quilt Market wearing a denim jacket covered with hand embroidery designs.

America's current-account deficit narrowed in the third quarter to $195.8 billion, or 6.2% of GDP. This was due largely to the big insurance payments it received from overseas after its summer hurricanes. The deficit will probably widen again in the fourth quarter: America's trade gap in goods and services reached $68.9 billion, a record, in October. But it continues to finance this shortfall with ease, attracting a net capital inflow of $106.8 billion that month.
American consumer prices fell by 0.6% in November, leaving prices 3.5% higher than a year ago. Industrial production expanded by 0.7% in November; American industry is now running at 80.2% of full capacity.
Business conditions in Japan are improving, according to the central bank's quarterly Tankan survey. Large manufacturers were in their best spirits since December of last year; non-manufacturing firms, their best since 1992. The yen jumped on the news.
In the euro area, industrial production fell by 0.8% in October, after slipping by 0.3% the month before. The two falls leave the sector's output just 0.1% higher than it was in October 2004. Hourly labour costs in the euro area rose by 2.2% in the year to the third quarter, the slowest pace since 1998.
In Britain retail sales volumes grew by 1.3% in the three months to November compared with the same period a year ago.

Sales Consultant Interview
Application DetailsI applied online. The process took 2 weeks – interviewed at CarMax in February 2015.
Interview DetailsWhole process took about a week and a half. Applied online and was called for phone interview hours later. Phone interview was basic and lasted 20 minutes. Filled out information on a computer and waited around 20 minutes to start the interview. First person interviewing just asked background information. Met with two new managers for real interview. 20 minutes and about 6-8 questions later the standard interview was over and I moved on to the mock car sale. Watched a short video and one manager role played as a customer and I was evaluated based on my selling technique. Interview was relaxed and managers were good guys. Overall good experience.

Sales Consultant Interview
Application DetailsI applied online – interviewed at CarMax.
Interview DetailsIt began with me applying via glassdoor. I received a phone call within 2 days from a manager and we did a very basic phone interview. At the end of the conversation I was asked to come in for a interview in 3 days time. I went to the front desk and they alerted the HR and I waited about 10-15 minutes in the waiting room. I expected it to be a very snuffy one on one interview. Not at all. I was interviewed by a panel essentially. Two managers at a time, each manager in a different section. Come to learn that even if you are applying for one job, you'll be considered for another if you seem to be a better fit. It was very low pressure. The questions they asked were mostly personality type questions and scenarios. What would you do if? How would you..? Being new to sales it was a bit fun. After all the interviews they do a roleplay scenario of you presenting a vehicle to an interested customer. This is all for personality placement.
Interview Questions- For me, relating my past job to sales and customer service. They are two ends of a spectrum. View Answer
Negotiation DetailsThere were no negotiations. They showed me the entire pay scale, plan, and how to reach the next level of pay.Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceEasy Interview -

Sales Consultant Interview
Application DetailsI applied online. The process took 3 days – interviewed at CarMax in January 2015.
Interview DetailsThe hiring process in terms of sales consultants is the same for every location. The first step is the online job application located at carmax.com, you will answer basic application questions but you will have to do a lengthy questionnaire. The questionnaire lasts about 45 minutes and it is crucial you take it seriously(they will look at it). It makes sure you have good work ethic and is very repetitive. Next you will get a phone call most likely within 48 hours for a phone interview. The interview lasts about 20 minutes and the manager will ask you things like previous work experience and what makes you qualified for the job. The manager is just trying to get a feel for you and trying to figure out if you would be a good sales person. If you did well you will be asked for an in store interview, most likely the following day. Once you get there you will sign some quick paper work and be directed to a computer. On the computer you will take another shorter questionnaire. Usually takes 5-10 minutes. It asks questions about any criminal background. Once completed you will have a formal interview with TWO managers. The first question they will ask is if you lied about anything on your application or resume. Tell the truth. They run more background checks than a government job. The rest of the interview questions are very basic and is mostly tell me a time when you did.. Such and such. All questions are related to sales in some way, ex) How did you persuade a customer to buy a product? Just relax, talk for as long as you can and be confident with yourself(the same confidence a successful sales person has). If you do well they will make you do a mock sales pitch for one of three cars, a toyota Camry, F-150, or a Tahoe. The most important thing about this is to be personal with the "customer" and get to know everything about them before giving a sales pitch for the car. Eventually, if that goes good you will be asked to see the location general manager. If you don't get asked to see the general manager you did not get the job. If you do get asked to see him then you already got the job. He will ask a few more questions then tell you about the job. Then he'll offer you the job and tell you about the pay. All In all it was a very lengthy interview, 3 hours, but it was not difficult. They will ask a lot of questions but they are there because they want to hire you. Just don't give them any reason not to hire you and you will be fine. My biggest advice is to make a connection with the managers don't just answer questions. Strike conversation with them and they actually want you to ask personal questions about them. It shows you can be a good salesman. Good luck to all who has an interview in the near future!

Sales Consultant Interview
Application DetailsI applied online. The process took 2 weeks – interviewed at CarMax in January 2015.
Interview DetailsThe interview process is quite long, and I'm only talking about the on location interview, there is also a phone interview before they invite you to the location interview. Before that is a 2+ hour online application with a personality assessment.
The on location interview for me started at 8 and went to 11:30, one of the 4 other people applying for the same position had to stay longer for reasons unknown (they didn't even tell him why).
I spoke with multiple managers, but most of it was prepared questions. I never really felt like they tried to get a feeling for me, just my answers. I've seen mention of panel interviewing, that never happened for me, infact I sat in a waiting room for nearly an hour at one point because they had us go through the individual interviews in the same order (not very efficient).Interview Questions- Tell me about a time when you convinced a customer to buy an item. and some semi similar questions with the S*T*A*R technique Answer Question

Application DetailsI applied online. The process took 2+ weeks – interviewed at CarMax in December 2014.
Interview DetailsThe hiring process took about two weeks. I had a phone interview and then was later contact for a second interview. The interview took about two hours. They asked me questions about my previous experience and if I had any sales experience. It was a very calm nice setting. I had to roleplay for them and sell them a Toyota Camry which was fun. I didnt know much about sales, I did ALOT of reseach and studying before i went for the second interview.
Interview Questions- Have you ever went above and beyond for a customer? View Answer
Negotiation DetailsThe hiring manager said he had two questions. The second question would depend on the first. He asked me what i expect in the next 5 years I answered then he said ok well I dont usually ask the second question but I want to ask you...when can you start?! Just have super confidence and be PREPARED!Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceDifficult Interview -

Editor's Note: This article was changed after its original publication to correct Dawn Stover's title.
The Energy Department's recent website redesign and move into the cloud apparently created a "black hole" for some documents. Users complained that they could longer find documents that were once easily located.
"Energy.gov—where information goes to die," was the headline on a Jan. 25 article written by Dawn Stover, contributing editor for the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists.
Stover, in the article, described her frustrations in her recent attempts to locate key documents at Energy.gov related to the Yucca Mountain nuclear waste proposal and other projects. She blamed the apparent disappearance of the documents into a "black hole" on the recent Energy.gov redesign completed in 2011.
The Energy Department has found the documents and returned them to prominence, according to its own blog, but the cause of their dropping out of view might affect other agency websites. And while Energy found the specific documents that Stover was seeking, other documents may still be difficult to locate.

Energy's mission for cutting-edge communications
"Does the overhauled website look prettier and make it easier for visitors to get localized information about tax credits, rebates, and energy-saving tips? Yes. But people who want to dig deeper into energy information may encounter dead ends," Stover wrote in the article, which was tweeted and linked around the Internet and was picked up by a prominent editor.
"In short, documents that were once available online are now locked away," Alexis Madrigal, senior editor of The Atlantic, wrote in a Jan. 27 article on Energy.gov that cited Stover's research.
Responding to the complaints, the Energy Department has set up a new Web page for the Yucca Mountain documents.
"Within a couple days of the concern being raised, we were able to quickly elevate additional Yucca Mountain Documents, update their metadata and make them more findable," Cammie Croft, the department's senior adviser and director of new media and citizen engagement, wrote in a Jan. 30 blog entry at Energy.gov. She led the redesign effort for the department.
Croft asserted that the inaccessible documents occurred most likely because of improper or absent tagging of older Portable Document Files, which is a longstanding concern. "That challenge existed before our redesign and still exists today," Croft wrote. "The problem is that unless older PDFs are correctly metatagged with relevant keywords, they may not show up in search results."
The website redesign, which moved the website to a Drupal-based content management system, actually has made it easier to identify and address the tagging concerns for the documents, Croft added.
"The Energy.gov of today … is much better than what was offered before," Croft wrote. "And it's getting better every day as we migrate additional documents and departmental office websites to the new platform."
The website redesign document accessibility problems at Energy.gov may affect other federal agencies as well. Other federal agency Web portals may face similar complaints from researchers and specialists following website redesigns that focused on enabling "top tasks," according to a recent study by Professor Cary Coglianese of the University of Pennsylvania Law School.
The top tasks generally included just a handful of the most popular activities associated with the federal Web portals, such as searches for the most popular documents or services. The top tasks generally did not include researchers' access to specialized documents or regulations.
As a result of the redesigns in the last three years, Coglianese found that agency Web portals currently provide fewer links to e-rulemaking resources than they did in the past.
For example, in 2005, 27 percent of agency portals linked to Regulations.gov. In 2011, only 21 percent were so linked.
Coglianese told FCW in an interview in 2011 that following the wave of federal website redesigns, it became more difficult to find rulemaking information online.

Sadly, the search capabilities of most CMS systems (even excellent ones like Drupal or MediaWiki) lag behind the general search such as Google. The standard advice (sometimes even provided by the very sites in question) is to use Google for search. This is because Google is good at its core competency, both because of technology and because Google's search uses third party links, which can be seen as an independent third party document quality assesment.It's also worth keeping in mind that sometimes people complain because their bookmarks no longer work. This is hard to avoid when redesigning websites. One technique worth remembering is to look at the server logs, pull out most frequently accessed documents and implement URL rewriting module specifically for a list of those high traffic documents.
Of the 3.7 million documents, how many were repeats? Tagging helps de-clutter sites that have duplicate information. Searching helps even more. For other documents that may have once been available, ask for them or do a FOIA request. The DOE isn't a group of mind readers. You have to migrate top tasks first. That does mean some things will get dropped or pushed down the list until they can either grab your attention or can be added to the next phase. DOE has a much better and easier site to use. Hopefully, researches can also help push away from documents and more into data so that we can look at ways to using APIs or exposed data to better understand what government does, does well, does poorly or still needs to address.
DOE made 44 documents available out of 3.7 million Yucca Mt. licensing-relevant that were formerly available in PDF with metadata as of Aug 2011.
