On May 11, Lansing Community College (LCC) held its first Youth Business Plan Competition. Aneri Gonzalez from Everett High School won the $1000 cash award, funded by a generous grant made from the Coleman Foundation to LCC's Own a Business, Own Your Future Youth Entrepreneur Fund.
Aneri graduates in June and already has an impressive resume. Not only is she the editor of her school newspaper and an LCC HOPE Scholar, she also has a good start on an exciting portfolio of work for her company AG designs. During her business plan presentation, Aneri showed examples of invitations she designed for friends' parties and a striking poster for LCC's Cinco de Mayo event. The audience included Aneri's mother, her accounting instructor, LCC faculty, and local business owners. All were wowed by her aesthetics, professionalism, and passion.
LCC business faculty, a local entrepreneur, and a representative from the Small Business and Technology Development Center judged the competition. They recommended Aneri receive the full $1000 and suggested some refinements and next steps for her business.
During her remarks following the judges' summary and announcement of her win, Aneri credited her accounting instructor, Greg Clugston, for motivating her to participate in the competition and supporting her along the way. She said that without his encouragement, she wouldn't have been there.
Aneri will start attending LCC as a full time student in the fall of 2010. She will be working at another job while she continues building AG designs, too. We have no doubt she will meet her goals.

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great weekend! Shelby had to go back to the twin cities for a few days for work so Jer and I tagged along. It was kind of a weird trip. We lived in St. Paul for four years and after being away for just a few months it already feels so foreign to us. It is no longer feels like home at all which I guess is a good thing. We got to hang out with a few friends which was bittersweet. It was really nice to spend some time with them and to actually say goodbye. It makes me miss them even more though. :(
Alright, enough of that. Time for the link party! Here are a few of my favorites from last week:

It's not quite hard numbers showing combined Wii/360 ownership, and it's not quite ZOMG WII60 CONFIRMED TOTAL, but we'll take anything that suggests that the Wii may be awesome. According to a survey conducted by Magid Media from March 20th to the 27th, Xbox 360 owners are somewhat more likely to be interested in buying a Wii because of their 360 ownership.
66% of surveyed 360 owners indicated that they were "neutral or more likely to buy a Wii because they now own an Xbox 360." Compare that to the 52% who were "neutral or more likely to buy a PlayStation 3." 19% of 360 owners were "somewhat or much more likely" to buy a Wii.
Wii owners, strangely, were slightly more positive about Sony's system than Microsoft's: 53% were "neutral or more likely to buy a PlayStation 3 because they now own a Wii", versus 44% of Wii owners who felt the same way about the 360.
We think we may have spotted a subtle troll in Gamasutra's writeup: "Results for PlayStation 3 owners buying other consoles were not disclosed in the survey results, presumably because the sample size was below Magid's acceptable levels." Either that's a joke at the PS3's expense, or reality is a joke at the PS3's expense.

Briton killed in Libya named, family 'devastated'
Published on Jan 4, 2014 8:50 PM
LONDON (AFP) - A British man shot dead in Libya was named by the Foreign Office on Saturday as Mr Mark De Salis, an energy industry engineer who had worked in Tripoli for six years.
It said his family was "shocked and devastated" by the discovery on Thursday of his body and that of a New Zealand woman on a beach in Mellitah, near the city of Sabratha, west of the capital.
The woman was his "close friend", the Foreign Office said in a statement, adding that its thoughts were with her family.
Libyan police Colonel Hassen Kamoka said a probe had been launched into the deaths, but that there still were no leads as to who the killers were or their motive.

Reviews - Westlakes Hotel
3 | AA Assessed Country House Hotel | Ratings explained |
Located in the Western Lake District, which is only an hours drive from the M6, the area has many local attractions as well as being a walker's paradise. To the east is the spectacular scenery of the Lake District, while to the west , the Cumbrian coast offers long, uncrowded beaches.
Indeed the area offers the best of both worlds; it is attractive but remains unknown by the majority of the Lake District tourists. For those contemplating an energetic holiday, nearby Eskdale and Wasdale offers fell walking and mountaineering suitable for all levels of experience. To the south, the famous Ravenglass and Eskdale Narrow Gauge Railway takes the visitor through the spectacular scenery, whilst nearby Muncaster Castle is an impressive ancestral home with beautiful gardens, and an owl centre.
You can be sure of the warmest welcome and friendly service from Geoff and Debra, and our experienced friendly staff.

Should Jordan Valley rodeo call off the horse roping event? (poll)
From: Oregon Live
By: Katherine Driessen
Less than a year after the Oregon Legislature banned horse tripping for entertainment, the Jordan Valley Big Loop Rodeo is planning to move forward with its horse roping event.
Rodeo organizers say horse roping is different from horse tripping, which is when a horse's neck and forelegs are roped, causing it to fall. Animal rights activists disagree: Horse roping is horse tripping, they say.
An online petition that has generated 10,000-plus signatures is calling on the rodeo to cancel the horse roping event. That's unlikely to happen.
We want to know what call you would make. Let us know in the poll and feel free to expand in the comment section below.

IF PHONE calls do not lie, Scotland could secede from the rest of Britain without causing much inconvenience. This is one of the main results of a study by a team of American and British researchers published on December 8th. Led by the SENSEable City Lab at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, it analysed billions of phone calls within Britain to find out whether the country's internal administrative borders are drawn in a way that corresponds with how people actually interact.
Putting borders, national or regional, in the wrong place can be quite costly. It may distort the natural flow of commerce, services and transport. And wrongly drawn borders underlie many struggles for independence—not least in Britain, which has had a fair share of such conflicts over the centuries.
Historically researchers have used everything from labour-market statistics to data about commuter travel to calculate "optimal" borders. But such information yields only a fuzzy picture. That is why the authors of this study opted for more fine-grained data: landline calls, which have the advantage of pinpointing geographical location (and the drawback of excluding communication on mobile phones). Some 12 billion calls within Great Britain in August 2005 were analysed, by phone number and duration. To protect the callers' identity, part of the phone numbers was deleted, leaving just enough digits to locate them roughly.
The study's hypothesis was that the more and the longer people in two locations talk on the telephone, the more the places belong to the same region. To prove it, they divided the country into "pixels" covering nearly 100 square kilometres. They measured how strongly these were connected in terms of "talk time", and used several algorithms to group the pixels into larger regions.
Unsurprisingly, the regions based on human interaction coincide largely with administrative ones (see map). After all, they have evolved over many years. But two differences stand out. Parts of Wales seem more connected to the West and East Midlands regions than to other bits of Wales. And west of London, where many of Britain's high-tech firms are based, a new region is developing.
To measure how thoroughly a region is integrated with other parts of the country, the researchers also calculated a "call-time ratio", defined as the percentage of phone time a region spends talking to itself. By this measure, Scotland is least connected to the rest of Britain, with a call-time ratio of nearly 77%. In Wales, in contrast, the ratio is less than 60%. If telephone calls are any guide, secession would be much less disruptive in Scotland than in Wales. Fortunately talk is not the only thing that keeps a country together.

At The Gym
I wrote about how I like to go to the gym. I go to the gym regularly mostly to use the rowing machine, treadmill and track. As added benefit lately is that there is this guy there that I have been watching. He is older and married and looks wise he is not really my type but the guy has a huge penis and seems to prefer going commando. Although he makes it look accidental I am not sure it is. He is so careful not to walk around much whenever there are other guys around but whenever he is alone with other females he makes sure we can see his huge **** flopping around in in sweats. At least it seems like that is his pattern. Well anyway I have been watching him the last few weeks and I think he has even caught me staring a few times. All I have seen him flopping around under his sweats and I'd love to see more but I think he might be afraid of getting into trouble. I believe he just likes the stares he gets from us girls. Well today I figured out a way to maybe get a better look while allowing him to still play like it was accidental. I noticed guys in the weight area of the gym help spot each other when they are using the bench press. I never use the weights but thought I would give it a try when my guy was around. I played the inexperienced female when I went over to the weight bench and started to try it out. I didn't have much weight on the bars and pretended to have a tough time getting the bar back up. Sure enough he came to my rescue and helped. He gave me instructions and offered to help spot me while I tried again. He stood over my head and helped me as I struggled to go through a few reps. I could clearly see the outline of huge penis through his shorts right above my head. I was hoping to get a peak up his shorts but unfortunately he was wearing shorts that were way too long. He really seemed to be a nice guy helping me out and it was never obvious he was trying to do anything but help me. But how can a guy not wearing underwear he not be aware of his huge penis flopping around inches from a girls head as he "helps" me? You think maybe he doesn't know how obvious it shows? I'll try again tonight after work to see if he can help me again. heheWow you are so sexy - I really enjoy reading your stories.. looking for more...SD
Just honest
But no one as beautiful as you.
he knows for sure... we sexy horny men like you sexy girls... are very aware of our surroundings, especially when an atractive girl is near... I can even recognice a fellow guy in the prowl just by the way we behave simmilarly.... for example yesterday there was this girl sith a short dress in Barnes and Noble, and I was there and another guy Ive seen there having coffe, he is around 40... we circled her, waited until the neighboring table and almost bumped each other trying to get the table... it was so obvious and we look at each other recognizing our intentions, he was there fiorst and I only passed by her side... lol

We are also very aware when we flash, or when there is bulk showing, we look at the mirror to check out how the bulky bulk looks... like you girls do when trying that small skirt or low blowse... and we love the looks we get form girls even when playing it cool...

One day after a tough basketball game I put on my warm-ups comando, knowing they were thin fabric, as I walked to the gym I saw my sexy friend and I walked to my girl, she was with one of her friends and my girl later told me that the other girl commented on my package... she said "OMG that looks so good, do you think he would go for a ********* with us two".. (I remember her look and me playing it dumb)... smelling a trap I just smiled, blushed and left it at that... stupid me... lol

kiss

I can't wait until the next time he is there with you. I'm sure he will have some reaction. In the mean time you will be so horny in anticpation of having him in you...
Ok, I'm starting to come around to your way of thinking Marty, he knows! Enjoy the show, and I hope he is enjoying your shows too! I know I'm enjoying reading about them, and I can't wait to see what happens next.
Marty, your plan of playing an inexperienced female is just what you should be doing. Keep doing it everyday, you go to the gym, allow him to help you. As the time go by sooner or later the two of you will connect and he would know you are interested and you will know that he knows you are interested. Married or not, he got what it takes to get woman turn on. The innocent little pretend act will turn into some thing meaningful that you could enjoy. I wish you luck with this slugger , hammer , bang machine. You too start going to the Gym all commando, no panties no bra, just the colorful sweatie shorts and Tee. Wear somethink red or purple or navy blue but not gray that for sure.
Anything to "help" out :)
Just wait and see if he wears shorter shorts next time! That might be tip off. At least, that's what I would do.
I have been going commando for 12 years now, in everything I do. I'm a nudist, so the less clothes the better, for the times that I do have to wear clothing. Having said that, I am commando even while at the gym. I don't lift, just run on the treadmills. I go first thing in the morning, they open the doors at 5:30am, well thats the official opening, but we usually are let in around 5:15. There are a total of 5-8 of us there each morning, all guys with the exception of one lady, she stays on the elliptical. No one really cares about what anyone is wearing, but at that time, we are there for business only, get in, get our routine finished and get to work to start the day. It's been the same 5-8 folks, doing the same routine for at least 5 years. I've been going for 13 years now.

I usually only wear the jersey type work out shorts, but then again, I'm "a grower not a shower", so while running or working out, I'm pretty small, so commando or not, all I get is a bump showing.

Like I said though, I am commando for MY comfort, not for "show and tell". To me it sounds like he MAY be the same way.

Just my $0.02.
Oops my apologies, I didn't know I was putting it on display. I'll wear pants tomorrow. hehe
Can't wait for the update!

You must be playing at the very low end to think that shadow priests have a glaring counter. Or that Melee train even works well right now. It doesnt, largely because of shadow priests bringing 70% of the effectiveness of a 2nd healer while still bringing 100% of a DPS; meaning when fighting a shadow priest team it is very hard to kill the healer, which is what Melee Train does well, and its hard to kill anyone else because the shadow priest can dispel their healer, and you know instantly full heal them or grip them across the map, or just straight up shield and spam heals; let alone killing the priest with their guaranteed out in Dispersion.
From my perspective at 2.2k right now (im on a warrior you try it!) I fight Shadow Priests more often then any other dps; but then again they are the best class to play with for pretty much everyone except like hunters.

FHSAA Golf Finals: McKeel's Hart Finishes Tied for 25th in State
Published: Wednesday, October 30, 2013 at 8:57 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, October 30, 2013 at 8:57 p.m.
HOWEY-IN-THE-HILLS | Whatever adjustment Shelby Hart made it worked and worked fast.
The McKeel Academy senior double-bogeyed her first hole Wednesday at the Class 1A girls golf state finals then shot 4-over par for the next 17 holes to finish with a second-round 78.
"She played some very nice golf," McKeel Academy head coach Dennis Brown said. "She's reached another level. She's a different golfer now."
Hart also shot a 78 Tuesday to finish with a two-day total 156 and tied for 25th place overall in the state at Harbor Hills County Club in Lady Lake.
Lakeland Christian's Trent Harris finished the day with a 76 and two-day155 total, good for 42nd place overall at the Class 1A boys tournament at Deer Island Country Club in Tavares.
"He putted a lot better today after being up and down a lot yesterday," Lakeland Christian head coach Seth Miller said.
In Class 2A action, Winter Haven's Athena Yang, who finished third in the state last year, finished the tournament 12-over par and tied for 17th place overall after back-to-back rounds of 78 at Mission Inn Resort in Howey-in-the-Hills.
"It's harder this year because everyone is good now," Yang said. "I think I still did good because I didn't go over 78."
Lake Gibson sophomore Amanda Gartrell, who was playing just one hole ahead of Yang, shot a 78 to go 13-over par for the tournament and an 18th place performance in her first state tournament appearance.
"I wanted to do my best and enjoy every moment of it because I don't know if this would be the last time I ever come," Gartrell said. "When I got to 17 my putter starting working, but a little too late. I parred 17 and birdied 18 to get the 78."
The Lake Wales boys improved by 26 strokes over their opening round Wednesday, finishing with a 357 and a two-day total of 740 to secure 15th place in the team standings.
"The way we played yesterday everybody was down but we got loose at the motel last night and everybody played better today," Lake Wales head coach Mike Settle said.
Trent Farrow (87) led the Highlanders, followed by Hunter Lerch (88), Charlie Gist (90), Michael Robarts (92) and Hunter Taylor (95).

text: Touchstone: A Journal of Mere Christianity "Fierce Charity" first appeared in the July/August 2012 issue of Touchstone. Fierce CharityS. M. Hutchens on the Christian's Duty to Be Strictly Loving There is a long line of Christian teaching that arrays itself against wickedness which demands that true charity prove itself by doing evil no harm, granting love the intolerance it requires to manifest itself as love. In the train of the One who plied a scourge in the Temple, St. Augustine observed in his Seventh Homily on the Epistle of St. John, I fear that the stock of neither Augustine nor his Master, nor those who follow them, is high in places where love, and harmlessness in the face of lies and error, are confounded. Again and again one reads with speechless frustration the kind of thing found in Hubert Edgar's July 27, 2011 admonition in a posting titled "Beautiful Disharmony" at the blogsite of Christians for Biblical Equality: Even if we leave aside the many torsions in this passage (e.g., the implications of "Egalitarianism is not a salvific doctrine" or that race and gender are equivalent species in the matter of gifts and calls), we are still left with the confusing juxtaposition of concepts that require an emphatic Yes on one hand and an equally emphatic No on the other, particularly those that require a definition of what "lovingly" means. It is plain that to many egalitarians "love" regularly means: "Allow us to stay where we are, in church, school, and elsewhere, and reward us to teach our doctrine to you, your children, and your pastors. Do not denounce us as errorists or heretics, or say our teachings are non-Christian, or that we are not Christians so far as we are egalitarians, for this cannot be done in Christian love. Do not censure or silence us in your parliamentary gatherings. Let us have voice and vote; place no special termini on our privilege of addressing them, no matter how many times our proposals are rejected. Give us the chance to wear them down. While we're doing these things, treat us with respect: condemning our teachings is, for sinners like you, condemning our persons. Do not lose your tempers when we persist in promulgating our beliefs against your repeated objections. You cannot be angry at us and sin not." Love Requires Correction The Yes on which we agree (at least superficially) is that all must be done according to love; the No applies where love is presented as benign toleration of error, which toleration works to the slow destruction of our consciences. For those responsible for leading and teaching in the churches, love in such situations will involve, as St. Augustine noted, what is necessary for correction. First, there must be public rebuke for the public teaching of the egalitarians and other heretics, rebuke based upon the conviction that their doctrine is schismatic and does damage to the Body of Christ, and that their own invariable charge of schism toward us is -effrontery, blaming us for the wounds they have themselves inflicted with novel teachings that divide the church where once there was no division. The second charge of love is naming and refuting the error, not just as a disagreement in an association of imperfect human beings where no pot can be right enough to call a kettle black, but positively and explicitly, so that the humility involved in owning one's own sin does not blunt the edge of the attack on error. We are not bound by patience, deference, humility, kindness, or the knowledge of our faults and finitude to be silent about, or unobtrusive to, false teaching. Finally, love ineluctably involves studied separation from error to a degree appropriate to the nature and amplitude of the offense. While, for example, I would join a woman who believed herself to be a Christian presbyter in the care of the sick or poor, and would happily be a good neighbor to her, I would not as a rule attend any church service at which she was preaching or handling the sacraments, nor would I belong to the denomination that ordained her. Being raised among fundamentalists who exercised much poor judgment in "biblical separation," I still think their understanding that the Scriptures demand hard and decisive discrimination on such matters is entirely correct. Good Catholics have the same kind of scruples—and very rightly so—about sharing the Lord's Table with the likes of me. As long as love can be understood as bearing these features, by all means let us exercise it vigorously. But I am far from sure that many of those who raise a pious monitory finger, advising us to exercise this and other virtues in their favor for Christ's sake, aren't really demanding that we let the wolves enjoy their dinners undisturbed.

: Finger Coils on Transitioning Hair
So, I've been transitioning for almost a year and decided to try finger coils. It took me 2 hrs 45 mins to create them but I was pleased with the results. I trimmed some of my relaxed ends as I coiled but some were just too long to cut entirely off so I rolled them with rods. I liked how they turned out but would like suggestions as to how to maintain them at night and the next day. I've tried re-rolling them and applying coconut oil but they still appear dry and frizzy.

As soon as the first article of this Prime Programming Proficiency series hit Developer.com, I received an e-mail response about the value of lines of code as a metric. I love the dynamic nature of the Web and the opportunity to exchange ideas with people all over the world. That said, Part 1 did not advocate lines of code as the best or only metric. It is part of a mosaic of information that should be collected as a means to an end—programming proficiency. Lines of code are a relatively easy metric to obtain, and used prudently, it can tell you whether your code is growing or shrinking. Growing code could indicate more features, but it could just as easily indicate useless code bloat. Shrinking code could mean that features were removed or that refactoring is occurring. So, you see that counting lines of code creates more questions than it answers, but it is part of an information-gathering process that can be a first step toward obtaining the answers. This second article of the series introduces the VS.NET Macros IDE and gets you started on implementing the LineCounter tool for VS.NET. Parts 3 and 4 will provide the complete code listing and discuss the pattern used to implement the solution, the Visitor behavior pattern. Visual Studio .NET has a comprehensive extensibility object model. Writing macros in VB.NET is a convenient way to access this part of VS.NET. (See the help documentation VSLangProj Hierarchy Chart for specifics on the extensibility object mode for projects.) By using this object model in conjunction with macros, you or third-party tools vendors can write simple or advanced code generators or automate a wide variety of tasks to extend and customize VS.NET. In fact, by combining macros, wizards, the CodeDOM, project templates, and the extensibility object model, one can automate a wide variety of tasks and speed up software development significantly. (These features alone would justify having a fulltime toolsmith on your team, assuming you have more than a couple of developers.) For now, let's look at using the extensibility object model and macros to design and implement your line counter utility. As a consultant, I meet a lot of smart people. Oddly, though, few of them talk about the extensibility object model or even seem to know about macros. To give you an idea of the possibilities, consider some enhancements I recently devised: These functions are all automatic now, and they save a lot of time relative to the time it took to implement them. I hope this encourages you to explore all of .NET and share those explorations with others. (One of the best bangs for your buck is to join a users group. Another is to sign up for free e-mail newsletters such as CodeGuru.com's.) Now, I'll get back to macros. Macros are supported by their own IDE. To open the Macros IDE, select Tools|Macros|Macros IDE from Visual Studio .NET. The Macros IDE is a lot like Visual Studio's IDE and the Macro language is Visual Basic .NET, so you should feel right at home. The Macros IDE has a Project Explorer. When you expand the elements of the project being explored, you see VB modules—think shared class—and class files. These files are located in C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\My Documents\Visual Studio\ MyMacros.vsmacros. (This is useful information if you want to share macros with others.) You can create plain vanilla modules or classes in the project and import or export classes and modules. I haven't tried to use a form in the Macros IDE, but I suspect you could. The important thing is that an entry point for macro code is a public method in a module that requires no arguments and returns either void or a subroutine with no parameters. After the macro has started, you can run any combination of methods, create classes, and generally perform any kind of programming task. Listing 1 offers a quick, introductory sample macro to get you started. Listing 1: Quick Macro Sample. The example macro DumpProject2 obtains an instance of the Projects collection from the active solution—DTE.Solution—and iterates each project, writing the project's name to the Macros IDE's Output window. Some solution-level elements do not have a FullName property because they may not be projects in the traditional sense of the word. You also can examine the Project.Kind property to determine the specific type of the element. The constants for Kind are defined in the EnvDTE.Constants namespace. Your primary problem is building a solution that performs the following tasks: The secondary problem is to accumulate totals for these same elements. (Don't you wish all project statements were so straightforward?) The final requirement is to print the element information and totals in the VS.NET Output window. Having a statement of work, you now can begin defining a solution. The first thing you might do is extend your sample code from Listing 1 and just keep adding inner, nested loops to handle sub-projects and files. I will submit, with some caution, that this will work fine—and it reflects how a lot of code is written. However, that's not how this article is going to do it. Although the statement of work guides the solution, it does not guide how you design your solution. To recap, the following is the statement of work listed as a set of imperatives (I really wish all projects were articulated this clearly. Oh, sorry, just daydreaming a bit.): Pretty easy, huh? Interestingly, most projects can be defined at this level of granularity using something as simple as an outline and word processor. Equally interesting is that very few projects have anything even remotely approaching this kind of definition statement. At this point, your problem is defined and the solution is stated as a list of unambiguous imperatives. (If one were negotiating this problem and solution statement as a fixed-price contract, all that would be left to do is have a lawyer examine the language for problematic loopholes in verbiage. I would also include a good change management clause in the contract.) Having the problem and solution statements, all you have left to do is implement and test the solution. In the final part of this series will do just that. As mentioned, you could hack out a bunch of nested loops, conditional statements, and the like, but using the Visitor behavior pattern will result in code that you can be proud to exhibit. Lines of code are a heuristic that is akin to drawing a line in the sand. Unfortunately, measuring lines of code is only the first step in a journey of a thousand miles. You must isolate newly produced code and evaluate it relative to the schedule, complexity of the problem, and qualitative aspects of the code. Failing to do so is working in ignorance of measurable productivity and quality. Part 3 of this article series will discuss the design pattern that makes the line counter utility more manageable. In addition to providing a team with a starting point for productivity improvement, all of these skills can be used collectively to solve other problems, which can improve a team's software development skill. If you want to read more about the CodeDOM, project templates, or macros (other than what I cover here or in Part 3), check out some of my other articles or books. A Google search of my name and the subject you are interested in should do the trick.

Wannabe writers might want to try travelling in trains when they feel creative. Back in 1990 J. K. Rowling was on a train to London when the idea for Harry Potter just "fell into her head". Twenty years later, K. Hari Kumar wrote his first novel on a train in Delhi.
At the time he wrote it, it was in the form of a screenplay for his first short film 'My Name is Iyer'. He was then a 21-year-old lad in college. The screenplay became a novel. When Hari fell ill and took off for a whole semester from college, he sat at home and did what he had always wanted to do - write. When he was done, he called it 'When Strangers Meet'.
Hari was born in Tripunithura and brought up in the crowded suburbs of Gurgaon. Even as a kid, he was fascinated by mystery and monster films. When he started writing, he idolised Doyle and Dahl. Somewhere along the way he took a fascination for the camera. The digital pictures he took made it to the finals of the Prestigious Nobel Memorial Photo competition held by the Foreign Ministry of Sweden in 2010 and 2012.
Hari came back to Kochi and began ghost-writing screenplays for television commercials while struggling as an assistant director in the media industry. And it started paying off. "I shot my first documentary in Punjab for an international artist recently. Storytelling is my passion and I wish to write novels and direct films in the future," says Hari.
After he had completed his novel, began the tough journey to find a publisher. "My manuscript was rejected by half a dozen publishers. And then fourteen months later, Srishti finally took an interest in my work."
The book talks about father-son relationships from the viewpoint of three strangers.
Hari, who has always been fascinated by thrillers, medieval mystery, and Gothic horror, describes his novel as more of a 'Bollywood fiction'. "There is action, romance, comedy, drama (lot of it), suspense and a twist in the tale!"
Like a Bollywood film, his book comes with a trailer that he directed himself. "I was looking at ways to promote my novel when I stumbled upon this concept of book trailers. When Strangers Meet is, perhaps, India's first cinematic trailer shot with live characters for a novel, on a real location."

What kind of data jobs are there in the software industry for someone with a B.S. in pure mathematics and a minor in statistics but with little experience in programming? I want to work on the data research side rather than on the software developement side. What companies hire data scientists?

The first few that come to mind...
Basically, any company that handles a lot of data would/should be interested in hiring people who know how to organize and pick through that data. That probably includes just about every large company out there -- data is a very important commodity in nearly every industry these days. |
Today the data is accumulated but not always utilized properly. The need for data analysis exist in Government and different types of companies such as Telco, Banks, Utilities and Financial Investment companies to name a few. There are needs for people with statistics, mathematics who are able to apply and create algorithms in variety of areas such as:
The job titles vary, but Data-Analyst sounds common. |
