Sales Management Trainee Interview
I applied online – interviewed at Enterprise Rent-A-Car.
I applied online and the next day I got an email from the Talent Acquisition Specialist to schedule a phone screening interview. The phone interview took place the following week. At the end of our conversation, I asked what the next step would be in the process and we scheduled an in-person interview for the next day. I met at the Area HQ with the Talent Acquisition Specialist and had a great conversation. I was contacted the next day to schedule the second interview with the Area Manager and again had another great conversation. The following day I got a call from the TAS to set up my final interview with the Branch Manager. When I arrived, I was told that a second Branch Manager would be joining us. Both of them made me feel very comfortable and relatable. The following week I got a call from the TAS asking how the final interview went and told me that as long as my background check cleared I would be offered the position. Everyone I have interacted with in the company so far has been great and I hope that it continues

Interview DetailsI applied for the job online and a few days later followed up with a recruiter. I was asked to come in for an initial interview with the recruiter within the following week. The interview itself wasn't anything out of the ordinary. Most of the questions I was asked dealt with customer service, sales, and leadership experience so be sure that you are comfortable talking in depth about each of those experiences. The interviewer put me at ease and made me feel really comfortable.

Sales Management Trainee Interview
Application DetailsI applied online – interviewed at Enterprise Rent-A-Car.
Interview DetailsThe process of getting a call back after applying was surprisingly quick. You will receive a phone screening and then set up an interview with the Talent Acquisition Manager in your area. The TAM will email you an invite to choose a date and time for the interview. You will discuss your most recent experience with Sales, Customer Service, & Leadership.
Be prepared to discuss your persuasive abilities to sell products & services to consumers. I believe the main part of ERAC's sales is persuading clients to purchase insurance. In my opinion these two things seem to be the most important thing to the company. Your leadership skills & experience may just be a plus because leaders & followers all should have the same goal and that's driving their sales by knowing how to sell and being persuasive in your customer service skills.
The salary was discussed at the end of the interview. I failed to ask how the salary was broken down with all of those working hours. You're told you will work weekends (probably only twice a month) and long work weeks (42-50+ hrs). Training is 2.5 weeks. The TAM will call you if you are invited to another interview but with the Area Manager or inform you they decided to pursue other qualified candidates.Interview Questions- What other positions are you applying for?

Interview DetailsThey actually called me and told me they were impressed with my resume and were eager to talk to me about the company and all it had to offer. It was great to know they were impressed with particular aspects of my resume such as my campus involvement. Many times, people look at your resume and just go for the interview, but Enterprise took the time to look at exactly what I have experience in and how those experiences can help me develop a career with the company.

Interview DetailsGot email from recruiter saying they found my resume on monster.com. Gave me instructions to apply online and then after I finished doing so the recruiter got back to me rather quickly to set up a phone interview. We scheduled it for the next day and it lasted about 10 minutes. He wanted to set a up a face to face. I saw him a few days later and if you last past that they will schedule you for a visit to a branch office. You shadow a manager for a bit and ask questions to them and other current employees. I did that for about 45 minutes and then interviewed with the district manager I believe. That lasted another 45 minutes. The recruiter and the DM ask you scripted questions about sales experiences and alot of hypothetical situations and what you might do. In between the first and the second interview they will do a background check on you. The last step is to meet with the area manager. I was offered too but later declined because I accepted another offer.

Sales Management Trainee Interview
Application DetailsI applied online. The process took 3 weeks – interviewed at Enterprise Rent-A-Car in January 2015.
Interview DetailsThere are a total of three face-to-face interviews and one phone interview. Everyone that I interviewed with was very friendly and I felt comfortable with the people that I would be working with. During the second interview, you are told that you will be observing the company for about an hour, and then you will have your interview for the last portion of the time. The one thing that bothered me the most was during my second interview; my interviewer (area manager) seemed to be more worried about my responses that he was typing rather than paying attention to what I was actually saying. It was a little uncomfortable because he wasn't making eye contact. They sent me an e-mail a few days after to let me know that they were no longer considering my application. Overall, the interview was professional and the people were friendly.

Application DetailsI applied through college or university – interviewed at Enterprise Rent-A-Car.
Interview DetailsThe interviewing process was long. You had to wait a week or longer after your first interview. Then your next interview was weeks away. Not only that but the second interview is an hour long observation of the store. I had to just sit there and watch their day to day process for an hour.

Sales Management Trainee Interview
Application DetailsI applied online. The process took a week – interviewed at Enterprise Rent-A-Car.
Interview DetailsAfter I applied online, I was contacted within 5 days. The first interview/phone screening lasted about 15 minutes. Basic information was asked: Why are you interested in this company? Tell me about yourself? etc. The woman on the other end of the line then discussed what the job entailed: 50+ hours a week, weekends, etc. She then set me up for another phone interview 3 days later with another HR woman. This interview was far more in depth. A lot of STAR and behavioral questions, but I felt prepared. Personal Sales Goals/Experience was by far and way the most important topic discussed. Much of my sales experience comes from retail and is very team oriented (Sales Goals for the store rather than personal). After the interview, I concluded that this was probably not the right company for me. I remember reading a review of this company days before the interview which stated, "A company for Type A personalities." After the interview I came to the same conclusion. Regardless, it is a great company with a phenomenal sales training program. A few days after, I received a notification stating that they had moved on to other candidates. In a way, I felt a sense of relief since I had lost interest at this point.

Application DetailsI applied online – interviewed at Enterprise Rent-A-Car in September 2014.
Interview DetailsApplied online, heard from the recruiter within 5 days. Got my first interview within 8 days of hearing from them. I went to a corporate head quarters fully prepared for the interview. The recruiter asked me questions for about 45 minutes to an hour. After the interview I questioned him for about 15 minutes on the company. I felt everything went really well. I none of the questions really stumped me. I heard back from them via email the following monday and they informed me they were going to go in a different direction. Which was fine, it was my first interview after college. Good experience over all.

"Does what it should, doesn't do quite everything"
Automatically and quickly downloads new definitions every startup, if not more often; let's you know when there's a problem, not in-your-face intrusive as some apps are. Small processor footprint, doesn't seem to affect system response speeds at all.
Doesn't protect from email phishing and fakie website scams, but it's free. The paid version gives the additional protection this free version lacks. You must register the product to get an activation code, so not anonymous.
With this application installed, I have yet to be infected or be the victim of a trojan or other attack. While it is part of a greater protection strategy, such as being behind a hardware firewall and sticking to safe web practices, Avast Free Antivirus is great at doing its job without bogging your PC down or bugging you constantly. Worth every penny it costs and then a lot more.

It's been a little over two weeks since I've gotten my Xbox 360, and I'm here to give my experiences with the system so far. This console certainly has it's issues, but do the pros make up for the cons?
It's been just over two weeks since the Xbox 360 has been released, and what a two weeks it's been! I was lucky enough to be one of the first pre-orders in my City, so I had no issues getting ahold of my system, thankfully. Over the course of the past two weeks, I have definitely had my share of game time and experiences, so this article will be focusing on the good and bad. There are a few reasons that I did not push out an article directly after the launch, and that is because most issues that you can experience with the system will not be that evident right away.
My friend Pete and I went to pick up the system at 8:00am at our local Electronics Boutique. The store reps there were preparing for quite a day, and likely a lot of bitching due to the supposed shortage. Microsoft was supposed to originally send 2 Million consoles throughout North America, but the reps at EB stated that they only released 1.4 Million. Whether these numbers are true or not, I am unsure, but even 2 Million seems a little low. There is no doubt that if you own a 360, you are one of the lucky ones, and the envy of many people in your neighborhood.
This seems out of place for such an article, but I'd like to give my condolences to the families who have experienced a death due to the release of this console. There are many psychos out there who are twisted enough to think that a $400 toy is worth more than human life. There have been numerous stories of such incidents, and don't think your local area was excluded. I live in Atlantic Canada which is known for being one of the friendliest places in Canada. Even here, there were reported stories of muggings and thefts for the consoles. It boggles my mind…
Being the tech-head that I am, I was excited just to toy with the power of this system, because without a doubt, it's a beast. Xbox developers state that the system is currently faster than any current Desktop computer, which is true due to it's 3 Core PowerPC processor. The graphics are another story though, so I wasn't expecting Anti-Aliasing to a great degree… it's rare to see that on a console.
I picked up the Premium package, and I have to admit that it is more than worth the price. For $100 more than the Core kit, you receive the 20GB HDD, Xbox Live Headset, Wireless controller in place of the wired and HD compatible cables. My console came with a basic remote control as well, but it is not standard with the console, so the next shipment of the system may not include it; It would be great if it did though as it's a pretty nice addition.
Upon first lifting up the system, I realized quickly that this thing is heavy! It is certainly packed though, so I will forgive it for being overweight. The system can be placed standing up, or lying down just like the first generation PlayStation 2's could be. According to reports though, if you have room to stand it up, then don't even consider lying it down because the ventilation and airflow is much better standing up. I will get into some heat issues shortly, because I definitely experienced some. Needless to say, my room is hardly large so I am forced to lie it down on top of my digital terminal cable box, which in itself get's hot.
I never dealt with Xbox Live with my original Xbox, but I had full intentions of signing up with this new console. The Premium package includes a month free of Gold, so I immediately signed up for that. Hooking up the console to the internet was far easier than I could have imagined. The system also included a networking cable, so I simply plugged it into the back of my computer and the Xbox.
To finish setting up the system, I plugged in the AC adapter to the wall and then into the system. Holy cow, what a mammoth PSU! Just check out the pictures to see what I mean, because I couldn't put into words how ridiculously large this thing is. Lastly, I hooked up the HD cables to my television, which supports 720p. The cable has a switch that you must push to the HD label, or else you will receive regular 480p resolution. Of course, if you don't have an HDTV, then you will want to leave it where it's at.

Save the date: Reunion Weekend June 5-7, 2015
While the primary purpose of the Endicott Network is to support instruction and research activities, Endicott does not prohibit the use of the residential network for gaming provided these activities do not interfere with the primary purposes of the network.
If you are interested in using the residential network for gaming there are three things you should know:
1. Endicott does not block any of the high numbered ports used by internet gaming servers. The only ports blocked on the residential network are a few low numbered ports used by well known internet worms such as Code Red, Slammer, Blaster and Welchia. Outbound SMTP connections are also blocked as we found many worms were using this port to propagate.2. Computers on the residential network use private IP addresses which are translated into public IP addresses by our firewall in order to connect to the internet. This is a popular security mechanism known as Network Address Translation or NAT. Most internet games work quite well via NAT but there may be some games or other internet software that does not work over NAT. Endicott does not support any internet software on the residential network if it does not work either over a NAT connection or through a proxy server.3. If you have a network aware game console such as an Xbox or Playstation you must register it with the IT Help Desk in order to be able to use it on the residential network. To do this, call the Help Desk at extension 2072 and submit your request. You will be required to provide the hardware address, known as the MAC address, of your device in order to register it for access to the residential network.Please know that in most cases this will show up as Strict NAT for XBox, and Nat3 for Playstation. At this time there is nothing that can be done to change this.

February 18, 2010 at 1:47 pm #2001057 Smitty 877 Posts This story is moving WAY too fast! I want the Forrester's to get the company back in the end but Bill has only owned it what three months? February 19, 2010 at 2:22 am #2001182 Outspoken 179 Posts Man, I love my Girls… the sequel from GS: This episode picks up with Katie on the phone with a flunkie interrupting Steffy's firing. Steffy is talking to Bill on her cell. She goes out into the hall. 50 cent is begging now. He says Steffy isn't being reasonable and he has a couple of ideas. Steffy tells him she's not interested in ideas and to take it or leave it! She says it's all in his hands and she's waiting. Big Baby Boy Ridge is showing his boo-boo to his mommy Stephanie. She tells him that he is out of control. Ridge agrees and goes on another rant about Bill and Katie making life hell. Taylor is exasperated with his attitude and tells him to stop whining about it. (My words) He stops momentarily and starts again saying he feels like he's chasing a memory. That Forrester Creations is gone forever. Dumma and Brooke are at the photographer's studio liking the look of the new set. Greek pillars and an all white background. Dumma asks which models they were using. Brooke brags the same models who did the Royalty campaign. Dumma says happily the Logan girls? She and Brooke hi-five. NEW OPENING THEME They added Hope, Oliver and Justin Whip has moved up and so has Pam! Ridge is still lamenting. He says he knows the Logans are riding high but he just can't be happy for them. Stephanie and Taylor try to tell him that it's because Bill has handed them the company. Steffy comes back into Katie's office to screw with her some more. Katie says they're done and that if she wants to keep working in fashion she should go get a job with her grandmother at Jackie M. Steffy tells Katie that she doesn't want to compete with her. They have a pissing contest about who shouldn't be underestimated and who really needs to leave the company. Steffy reminds Katie that she doesn't have a leg to stand on in firing her. Katie admits that Steffy's firing isn't' work related but personal (Is she stupid or something? Steffy could sue her ass off and win the company in court!) She tells Steffy she'll have her things sent and to get out of the bldg or she'll call security. Steffy tells her she's not going anywhere. Katie then pulls rank saying she is CEO and decides what goes on there. Steffy enlightens Katie to the fact that her family built that company and the only thing that is her is the misery she brought with her. Katie goes to her desk and calls Madison to come in. When Madison comes in, Bill is right behind her. He's coming in so fast he leaves skid marks on Madison's head. Steffy smiles and tells him he has perfect timing. COMMERCIAL Katie tells her hubby that she just fired Steffy. She recounts that Steffy's behavior has been inappropriate. Bill looks at Steffy and agrees that her behavior has been inappropriate. In return for that slam, Steffy reaches for her bag where the ring is. Just then Bill tells her "to give it a R.E.S.T". Steffy raises an eyebrow. Katie is clueless and thanks her husband for agreeing with her about the firing. She kisses Bill and tells him she's late for a photo shoot. She leaves the room off to become a goddess! (Watch out Hera! Zeus is still looking horny!) Steffy closes the door behind Katie. She is triumphant and asks Bill if he meant it. Katie goes to the photo shoot where Donna and Brooke are waiting. She apologizes to Brooke for making trouble for her with Ridge but that Steffy had to go. Brooke asks how Bill took it. Katie tells them that she has Bill's full support. Bill is still with Steffy. He's looking like a caged animal. Desperate! Lol Bill tells Steffy that she reminds him of himself. He asks if she can feel their connection. (Work it if you can 50 cent!) Steffy says the only thing she's feeling is for her family. She orders him to get down to business. Bill says he has an alternative proposal. He says it will be a win-win for them both. COMMERCIAL Katie tells the rest of the witches that she will take the heat with Ridge and Eric about firing Steffy. She tells Brooke to just lie to Ridge (again?) and say she didn't she realize what was going on. Brooke agrees. Then Katie tries to pump up her fellow goddesses for the photo shoot. The Logan girls giggle together. Ridge is still going on and on. Woe is him! Stephanie comments that her children basically grew up in the halls of Forrester Creations. Taylor says hers did too. Stephanie tells them that the real tragedy. She is sorry that Thomas and Steffy have to see the demise of what was great family business. Ridge says it's not about what he's going through… (REALLY!) but about his kids, especially Steffy. (Can you tell she's his favorite kid?) Taylor tells him that Steffy is just scared for him. And that she would do anything to give her father back his company if she could. In the CEO office, Bill is proposing an addition to Forrester Creations. A design center that will be run by Eric and Ridge. Steffy asks if they'd have to report to him or Katie. He tells her everyone has to report to someone. Steffy defies him and says her family always had freedom and never reported to anyone because they were the best. She says she's getting that freedom back for her father and grandfather. Then Bill tries to threaten her by telling her how disappointed he'll be in her. (You're just flailing Bill hoping something will stick!) Steffy is not fazed at all. She says her father is practical and will not blame her at all but that he better get a bodyguard. She tells him that Katie on the other hand will not understand. Bill tells her it's her word against his. Steffy says her credibility it bumped up by the fact that she has Katie's ring! COMMERCIAL The Logans are being snapped by the butch photographer. They are dressed in white gowns trimmed in gold like the Greeks used to wear. Dumma looks huge in her drapes and carries a lyre (symbolic?) No one seems in the mood and the photographer is not getting what she needs. Katie asks them to take a break. She gives them a pep talk. She gives Brooke permission again to lie to Ridge because it could have gotten explosive between him and Bill. Katie then asks them to rise to the occasion so they won't look bad in the pictures. (Too late) They smile at Katie and she brings back the photographer. There is a montage of shots. The Logan sisters then individually, Katie, Brooke, and Big Dumma. Stephanie and Taylor walk in and are surprised at Katie lounging flanked by Dumma and lyre, I mean Brooke. Stephanie says she thought she was walking in on a costume party. She tells them that now that they were done leeching the dignity from FC that they were now going to be laughing stocks. (Just got to love her!) Katie says no one will be laughing, only buying. (Especially with Katie designing now) Dumma opens her trap and tells Stephanie that she had her chance and now the company has changed hands. Brooke adds that they'll just have to live with it. (I wish to God, Ridge could hear what this heifer says behind his back) Katie then tells Stephanie and Taylor to move back and let them get on with their shoot. Upstairs, Steffy says she can prove her claims of Bill's infidelity with Katie's ring AND by reciting the conversation Bill and Katie had that night to prove she was there in the bedroom. Bill compliments Steffy. She says she really doesn't want to blow apart his marriage but that SHE WILL! Bill asks if she's really doing this fro her family. Steffy confidently says she's a Forrester and that's what Forresters do. Bill tells Steffy that Katie once wanted to give back the company but now she's attached to being CEO and does it well. (WHAT? Bill you ain't been around to see that obviously!) Steffy coldly tells him to buy Katie a house or a yacht. FC is in the Forresters blood! She tells him that he'll be happier with Katie than without her. Bill asks for the contract! Steffy pulls it out of her bag and instructs him to sign the back page. Bill takes the contract and warns Steffy that her daddy has no money to buy back the company. That Brooke is the one with the assets and she'll want a piece. Steffy says she's willing to do whatever. Bill tries to cop out and says he'll have his lawyers look at it. Steffy tells him no way, SIGN NOW OR NO DEAL. He warns her that if she reneges on this deal and tells Katie he will come after her and bring hell behind him. She softly promises to keep quiet. Bill smiles almost proudly and says that she's pulled off what no one ever has, getting the best of him. He says part of him wants to strangle her and the other part… (We know about the other part Bill) He bends over the table and signs the papers! He holds the papers back from her until she gives him the ring. Steffy leaves the office hardly believing that she did it. She says to herself that now the Logans will finally be gone. February 19, 2010 at 2:24 am #2001183 Outspoken 179 Posts REST: the real contract! Ridge, Eric, Stephanie and Taylor! The cash comes from Stephanie and Taylor and the trust is for THEIR kids… buh bye LOWGONES………….. Good-bye! I can't wait for tomorrow and Monday, BnB is rocking my world… OLTL also, but for so long I have had the nose wiped clean with this Terror Rain of the Trojans……… (uh… Logans) and now at last! FC comes home to the Forresters … better said, Team DHF! Elation is just the beginning! February 19, 2010 at 2:28 am #2001186 Outspoken 179 Posts [quote=Smitty]This story is moving WAY too fast! I want the Forrester's to get the company back in the end but Bill has only owned it what three months? [/quote] No Smitty, we have suffered enough! It is time to put that trash on the curb so that the city can pick it up and deliver it to where it belongs! GO STEFFI! Go STEPHANIE and GO TAYLOR! At last!!!! I can sleep without wondering when this Trojan-Creations crap would be over— all is good in BnB land! The Team has brought the story full-circle and the suffering is adieu! LOVE IT! February 19, 2010 at 2:29 am #2001180 Outspoken 179 Posts The recap from my Girl Luv! Today was a very good episode, love the camera work. We start off in Bill's office. Bill and Steffy are talking about what she wants. Bill wants to know what will he get in return. Steffy says her lips are sealed. She says so boss, what's it going to be? The company or your wife? Katie/Brooke/Donna: In Katie's office. Brooke tells Katie she was rough on Ridge and Eric. Katie asks how Hope is. Donkey says I guess with have no campaign now. Katie comes up with a new campaign slogan. "Goddess". They are so overjoyed with the word and where it could lead (Umm, wasn't Ridge and Eric designing for Hope's campaign when Katie had harsh words for them when she said it should be fun and flirty? Do they know the plan is scrapped?) Brooke is so happy she said let me call Steffy so she can get right on the PR. Katie says no, I'm firing her. Brooke and Donkey have the surprised look. Ridge's office. Ridge is tearing up a sketch and Taylor comes in with a gift, I think flowers to calm him. He rants and she tells him he is the company and not to get depressed, she's there to cheer him up. He can tell she's happy he says its Whip isn't it? Intro Ridge's office. Taylor says, "Whip?" Ridge says the fast talking….Taylor tells him he's very sweet. Ridge says so you like him. Taylor says he's past like. Ridge says so its serious. She says just be happy for me. Taylor says enough, where's Steffy. Ridge says she's so irreplaceable. Katie's office. Brooke says you can't fire Steffy. Donna is shaking her head in agreement (and she's the one that went running to Katie about Steffy and Bill the last time that set Katie off, just like her big head sister, start something and watch it explode). Katie tells her that Steffy is after her husband. Donna tells her she just can't toss her out. Katie says the sooner the better. Bill's office. Bill touches Steffy's face and pulls her away from him and says, "you irritate me." Steffy says sarcastically, "score one for the Forrester's". Steffy says your mouth says one thing, you got your Logan, take her on a honeymoon around the world. Bill says he will not let her hurt his wife. Steffy says she's protecting her family, "give me the company back". Steffy sits in Bill's chair and says "I get what I want, give my dad his job back". Commercial Ridge's office. Ridge says Steffy is one of the few keeping him there at the company. He continues to babble about here and Steffy. Taylor tells him that Steffy treasures the time she has with him there at the company. Then he rants and cries again about how he feels when he comes to the company. He says that Steffy thinks they are going to get their company back, she's just like you. Katie's office. Brooke says this makes no sense. She says aren't you and Bill on track? (Donna put a skid in the track!). She says Steffy is relentless and that she's seen Brooke fight Stephanie all these years (what does that have to do with it!). Brooke says now you are going to create a Logan vs Forresters. Katie said its going to stop, she touches her finger and Brooke says you still haven't found your engagement ring? Bill's office. Bill says stealing Katie's diamond for collateral? Steffy tells him that he was so turned on by her and he wanted her. Bill says if your father finds out all hell will break lose. Steffy tells him that her dad will forgive her and "will Katie forgive you"?. Steffy tells him all she wants is FC and that he is the means. Bill says so this is my punishment, to help you succeed. Steffy says this deal is better. Bill says this company is no consolation prize. Steffy says do you want Katie to find out? She pulls the contract out and says, "sign the papers or your marriage is up for grabs". Commercial Back to Bill's office. Bill is looking at the papers and says even if I do sign your father can't buy back the company. He tells her he used business practices to get the company, blah, blah. He says he understands her wanting to do for her family, its not right. Steffy says with a smirk, "I think that's cute, refusing me; its not an option, sign right here". Bill says sorry this is the end of your fantasy. Steffy says good thing Katie hasn't seen me yet, don't want to keep the boss waiting. Ridge's office. Taylor is still consoling the cry baby telling him not to give up his dream. Ridge tells her what he did, he smashed a trophy thought he was hallucinating (I didn't see him hallucinating…anybody else?) He goes on to tell Taylor he has to be her for his daughter, blah, blah, blah. Bill's office. Bill pours himself a drink. Justin comes in babbling about some sales figures and Bill says not now Justin. Justin wants to know what's wrong, Bill tells him about his latest tryst with Steffy, the argument with Katie, he thought she walked out on him and he knows how he gets when someone leaves him (stick a pacifier in his mouth) he tells Justin that he overreacted and Steffy was there. He says he needs damage control. Justin says how big is your damage. Katie's office. Brooke is trying to convince Katie its not a good idea to fire Steffy. Katie says she's given her chances, she's out of here. Steffy comes in her office. Katie says Steffy, you're here. Katie tells her sisters to excuse them that she needs to talk to Steffy, she has some issues to discuss. Brooke and Donna get up and leave. Ridge's office. Taylor is still consoling the cry baby. Ridge says that Katie and Bill are incompetent and hates how they are pushing Steffy around. Bill's office. Justin says what trouble you're in. He tells Justin that he thought Katie left him. Justin says tell me you're not sleeping with Ridge's young daughter. He tells Justin that Steffy wants him to sale the company back to her. Justin says she's blackmailing you. Bill says if Katie finds out… I can't lose her. Showdown in Katie's office. Katie tells Steffy she knows what she's up to, blah, blah about the late night lunches the kiss, yada, yada, yad. Steffy says she's not forcing him. Katie tells her that Bill is entertaining her thought and that he's her man. Steffy says you are so confident. Katie tells her its just a crush, there are always consequences. She goes on to tell Steffy that this situation is over and someone has got to go and its you. Steffy says you're firing me? Steffy begins to dig for the ring while Katie is still ranting to her she tells her to find herself another job. Katie gets a call and Steffy is still digging for the ring. Steffy gets a call, its Bill and tells him that Katie has fired her and that she has the ring and she wants the company (Katie is in the foreground still on her phone call), it's the company or your wife, now! End of episode Go Steffy, reduce Dollar Bill to .50! Luv February 19, 2010 at 4:12 am #2001213 Smitty 877 Posts I like Taylor and Stephanie too, but this plot that Steffy has used to get Forrester back is lame! They should have come up with something else. February 20, 2010 at 3:51 pm #2001462 Outspoken 179 Posts I don't care how they did it……………… FC is Trojan FREE! I am still springing around like a freak! LMBO! OMG! FINally, justice is served! Did I say how much I love Brad??? LOL! Best epi in a loooooooooooong time! Thank goodness that the family have gotten their home back….. was sick and tired of the whining…. sick and tired of the Trojans constantly rubbing their SLORE – won positions in the Forresters faces…. so sick and tired of Katie the Tyrant! It is OVER! There is a soapGod and I am just in awe… BnB pulled through for the FANS and now the bickering and the conniving can begin. WHO cares………………….. bring it on.

By Dean from USA on 2010-07-08 23:47:35 Things I liked:Bright, clear image, Mil-dots, easy to adjust windage & elevation turrets, rugged construction, flip up covers, solid Picatinny/Weaver mounts, Great Price!Things I would have changed:Nothing. For the money I don't think you will find a better 4x32 scope with mounts. What others should know:Mounted this on my Crosman 1400 using the Air Venturi Intermount with Picatinny rail. Sits a little high but no biggie. Turned my treasured old .22 pump rifle plinker (with blade and ramp sights) into a much more accurate air rifle. So far I've been able to hit the 7 ring on a 25' qualification target at 50 yards with this scope (and 8 pumps) after a bit of sighting in. I'm sure I can do better on a calmer day with a bit more practice and a little less coffee. This scope is very nice and more than adequate for this class of air rifle, in my opinion. Very satisfied! |

By David from USA on 2014-02-02 00:25:23 Things I liked:I liked the scope for its clear optics, mildot crosshairs and appearance. It was also trim enough to be able to use the sights of my Umarex Octane when mounted with Traditions see-through mounts.Things I would have changed:It is just not a tough enough scope to hold zero for a shooter like me. I will keep this scope for other uses than a spring piston or gas piston break-barrel. I have given away scopes similar to this that would not hold zero for me, but held zero just fine for another shooter with the same model of rifle. The only difference is that he has a lighter build. I strongly suspect the same would be true for this scope. What others should know:Shooters who are heavily muscled and with hard shoulders may find that they go through scopes very quickly. The shock to the scope from heavy recoil is enhanced on people like us. I have noticed this phenomenon in high powered rifles too, and tend to avoid the more fragile variable scopes for tougher fixed power. Now I shall have to do my old standby trick for the Octane: I will mount an artillery optical sight or panzerfaust sight on this pellet gun using an all steel AK47 mount. This will take a bit of welding and modification but will be relatively easy as the Octane has a picatinny rail. This will be the sixth time I have done this trick. I have used this absolutely recoil proof and very accurate arrangement with great success on a two high powered rifles, three twenty-two rifles, and another enhanced recoil airgun, a .22 Benjamin Titan. The whole reason I bought this UTG scope, (second UTG, second bust) was my wish to avoid the tedious and exacting welding that goes into altering an original steel AK47 mount. Artillery sights and antitank gun sights have no movable crosshairs, but instead use fixed etched markings. The Ak47 mount has full adjustment capability. So when these two are merged you have a very tough setup with low (2.5 or 2.6 power) magnification and great clarity. If you are built like me this UTG may not be a good break-barrel scope for you, and you may have to spend more money, or attempt a modification similar to what I have described. |

2010 NFL Mock Draft: The Playoffs and Draft Order Are Set | Bleacher Report --- Here's some picks of interest: 5. Kansas City Chiefs—Rolando McClain, LB, Alabama 8. Oakland Raiders—Carlos Dunlap, DE, Florida 21. New York Jets— Terrence Cody, DT, Alabama 25. New England Patriots—Sergio Kindle, DE/OLB, Texas Obviously it's way too early to expect any accuracy from mocks until all of the draft eligible prospects are properly ranked. But it's still interesting to envision scenarios of who may be available at #25...and who the Pats would move up for...
Interesting, I just read the puff piece on Kindle and was wondering what kind of fit others we're percieving him for our squad. It's a long way out still but it's interesting to project. Texas' Kindle has staying power - College Football - Rivals.com
I'm not sure I like the Kindle pick. I'm not clear that he's strong enough to set the edge for us. They have OT Brian Bulaga going #26, one pick after Kindle. I'd have to give Bulaga some thought if he's still on the board, as a fabulous RT prospect to pair with Vollmer down the road. And DE Cameron Heyward isn't listed in this mock - he would also be an option if he were available. Otherwise, I could see BB trading back, as there's no clear value at the spot.
I agree with the choices for the top two picks, and the reasons for selecting them. I don't know if both franchises will go that route, but I hope that they do for their sake. Especially, in regards to Detroit... If Sergio Kindle is available, and he's anything comparable to Brian Orakpo as a rookie, select him if a team doesn't trade up. Other choices could be Greg Hardy or Corey Wootton.

Infrastructure & Growth Symposium
Please join me for an important conversation about growth and our county's infrastructure on March 7th.

Bethesda Downtown Plan
After 20 years, the Bethesda Master Plan is getting a fresh new look. With the help of residents, businesses, and community groups, the Montgomery County Planning Department is looking to create a more modern Downtown Bethesda, while enhancing what has made this part of of our community such a success. The work on the Plan will be organized around three themes: social sustainability, economic sustainability and environmental sustainability.
To begin this undertaking, the Planning Department and Parks Department collected information on the existing conditions found in Downtown Bethesda, including the environmental conditions, the historic resources, demographics and market/economic data (Which can be found in the Bethesda Briefing Book). With all of this information, the Planning Department will create a work plan and determine the scope of the work needed to properly meet the needs of all parties involved. Throughout the Spring of 2014 the Planning Department held public workshops & community meetings in order to take the current pulse of Bethesda residents, business owners, & stakeholders
Coming in June 2014, the Planning Department will release its initial staff recommendations. After the initial set of recommendations are completed, the staff will create a draft for the Downtown Plan. After both of these documents are released, public comment will be solicited to help shape the collective vision of Downtown Bethesda. A helpful schedule of these proceedings can be found here.
Once the Planning Board reviews and approves a Draft Plan, it will go to the County Council for review. In its review process, the Council will hold another set of Public Hearings in order to hear your thoughts on the plan before the Council. After the public hearings and the review processes of the Executive & Council, the Council will vote on adopting the Master Plan.
For more information on the Bethesda Master Plan visit BethesdaDowntownPlan.org.

CM Berliner speaks at 2015 Maryland Association of Counties Winter Conference - I was asked to speak to our role as legislators in leading the charge for smart growth. As I thought about this presentation, I asked myself what is the biggest lesson I have learned over the past eight years as we in Montgomery County have sought to implement smart growth principles. And the answer I would offer is simply this – change is hard, and changing a deeply rooted culture is even harder. The whole speech can be found here.
Council Selects Natali Fani-Gonzalez for County Planning Board Seat - The Montgomery County Council today unanimously named Natali Fani-Gonzalez to a vacant position on the Montgomery County Planning Board.

The revolutions in the Arab world have significantly changed the region's media landscape. Private radio and TV stations are increasing their market share, independent Internet service providers are expanding their role as primary sources of information, and there are state broadcasters showing interest in reforms. DW Akademie is accompanying the Middle East's democratic transition and is promoting structures that ensure long-term, unrestricted access to independent information. Our focus is on Egypt, Yemen and the Palestinian Territories.
The transformation process has slowed down in Egypt and journalists and media workers there are now having to defend their newly gained freedoms. DW Akademie is supporting the development of structures for media self-regulation. We are also assisting reform-oriented media organizations by providing basic and advanced training for online and TV journalists, media managers and technicians, with a goal to enable independent, balanced reporting. We are also training new trainers and developing a practice-oriented journalism degree program with Cairo University.
A journalism degree program is also the focus of our long-term project with Nablus University in the Palestinian Territories. The aim here is to make the existing program more practice-oriented by creating an on-campus TV station.
In Yemen DW Akademie is working with the independent newspaper "Yemen Times" to establish a radio station that offers independent educational and information programming throughout the country.

Client Testimonials"When I first came to Nova Chiropractic I met both Diane Smith and Heather Shaw; I had gone in to be adjusted and when I learned what Diane did I may have muttered I would never get a massage because I did not think I could handle someone touching me like that. Well, after Dr. Shaw realized that even the big hammers wouldn't work with my uptight broad pains she suggested a "quick massage" to see if I could relax before the adjustment. So I did it. Diane was so accommodating and made me feel so comfortable that it soon became a regular thing. Now before every adjustment I look forward to an hour massage and my treatment with Dr. Shaw. My twelve year old even enjoys a massage every once in a while. We both love Diane at Body Wave and enjoy it when she brings in the new stuff she learns at her classes. Yeah Body Waves Massage!!!! I have even bought gift certificates for some of my lucky friends." |

Mark Obenhaus' thrilling documentary transports you to the vertical world of extreme big-mountain skiing. Steep celebrates this intense way of life, from the trailblazing pioneers, whose goal was to ski where no one had ever skied before, to the new generation of daredevils attempting the seemingly impossible by combining BASE-jumping with parachutes against the gravitational pull of the steepest descents. With stunning original and archival photography that embraces the high-velocity grace, sheer exuberance and mortal danger of this extreme sport, Steep offers a unique glimpse into a rush that only a select few have experienced. But in doing so, Obenhaus goes deep into the characters of the people who risk everything to try that uncharted line. From the sport's initial origins on the Grand Teton in Wyoming and Chamonix in the French Alps to the peaks of Iceland, British Columbia, Patagonia and the Chugach Mountain Range in Alaska, in this avalanche-prone terrain with no lifts nor ski patrols, the slightest mistake can spell instant disaster. The men and women who fly down these mountains do so to fulfill a calling. To them, skiing uncharted terrain is a more than a sport; it is a quest that must be fulfilled. The beauty of Steep goes beyond its awesome visual sequences as it tells a very human story of the many who have risked all-as well as the several whose lives were cut short-in this quest to take skiing away from the trails and resorts and back into the rugged and untamed natural world of the mountains.
MARK OBENHAUS is a producer, director and writer of documentary television and film. In recent years, he has worked in association with ABC News and Peter Jennings as Executive Producer, writer and director of Dangerous World: The Kennedy Years, based in part on the reporting of Seymour Hersh; The Kennedy Assassination: Beyond Conspiracy, a two-hour coproduction between ABC and the BBC and UFOs: Seeing Is Believing, a two-hour primetime special. Prior to working with ABC, Mr. Obenhaus made documentaries for public television, including films for Frontline, Great Performances and The American Experience. Obenhaus' work has been recognized by five national Emmys, the Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Award, two Robert Kennedy Journalism Awards, the Gabriel Award, the Ohio State Award, the Writers Guild of America Award, four American Film Festival Awards and numerous other honors.

Political gridlock over 'fiscal cliff'? Not if CEOs can help it.
President Obama was set to meet with the leaders of a dozen major US corporations Wednesday, with the fiscal cliff a central topic. Businesses have rallied in trying to nudge officials toward a deal.
Charles Dharapak/AP
The US business community is rallying with unusual zeal behind a simple but urgent message: It's time for politicians to fix the nation's budget policy.
The urgency comes from the deadline known as the "fiscal cliff," the tax hikes and federal spending cuts that are scheduled to occur on Jan. 1, perhaps tipping America into recession. Recessions, of course, aren't good for business.
But corporate leaders aren't just promoting short-term actions, such as postponing tax hikes. They're also calling for longer-term reforms to reduce future deficits. In this, too, a self-serving rationale can be seen.
Many chief executive officers worry that future US prosperity – and their own profits – could be in peril if government policies continue to drift toward an ever-rising national debt.
"Our national debt increases about $3 million every minute," Scott Davis, the CEO of United Parcel Service (UPS), said in a recent speech. "Our leadership needs to ... adapt to the economic realities, take a disciplined approach. And most importantly, act."
Concern within the business community about America's fiscal health is nothing new. But today's high economic stakes have prompted CEOs to speak with a rare level of urgency and coordination. That could make their message an influential one, at a time when Democrats and Republicans have sharp differences on the way forward.
President Obama was poised Wednesday to meet with the leaders of a dozen major US corporations, with the fiscal cliff a central topic.

Point is - the encounter should never have occurred, that in itself is harassment. Doing it the oc'ers way only took 3 min in spite of the officer's ignorance and arrogance.
Asking for ID 4x when the person is not required to present it and has repeatedly refused is harassment. Are you that patient with someone you suspect of DUI? Why is declining to provide a name/ID when it is not required not a reasonable response? - apparently the legislature and courts think it is. If you're going to claim politeness - that stopped with the improper stop. If it wasn't improper, why was the LEO's interview shut down as soon as the supervisor was on scene?
The only reasonable expectation in the encounter was the oc'er expecting not to be stopped b/c of other's ignorance (especially LEO) and expecting to not have a loaded gun pointed at him.
FTR, I don't and have no desire to OC.

The last few weeks have been enough to turn even the most stalwart of Caps fans unhinged and overstressed monsters. It'd be really easy to become cynical and cop an attitude about the team, but that's why it's so important to keep everything in perspective.
Reader Taylor P. wrote us a story last week that was exactly what we needed. Taylor and her brother had an encounter with Eric Fehr and Troy Brouwer at last Tuesday's game against the Penguins. It was a little moment, but maybe little moments are what this team and this community need to remind ourselves why we're doing this in the first place.

Featured Review
April 21, 2012
I am a long time member of the Oregon Environmental Council, as well as a financial supporter, because of the valuable work this organization does. OEC retains a dedicated and skilled staff, experts in their individual fields, while at the same time skillful management keeps operating costs low. They have an excellent record with both programs and policy work. I have tracked their success' over the years and I've noticed that their particular skill is bringing people together to make things happen. The everchanging environmental agenda, along with a fluid political scene requires skill, tact, commitment and long hours of work all of which they seem to do gladly and efficiently. Oregon is well rewarded by their record of success. P.S.

I work for a national, partner NGO and I am nothing but impressed at the capacity and demonstrated success of this organization. This small group of individuals has a large impact on any campaign they set their sights on. We are in the fourth year of a campaign where OEC has provided the strategy, coordination, technical expertise and outreach that is all needed to move the needle on an issue. When my organization is talking about other campaigns, I frequently find myself referencing the successful models I've seen implemented by OEC. Huge kudos to this valuable asset of the Oregon community.
October 26, 2014
Having recently completed an internship with Oregon Environmental Council, I not only enjoyed the creative ambience of OEC's working group of dedicated and vibrant professionals, but was made to feel right at home and was always considered as an important contributor to the team effort. The team effort here is no small item: OEC is at the forefront of coalition building for positive environmental change across the entire state of Oregon. Their efforts may not be of the flashy type so often hyped by some members of the environmental community, but they are real; backed by good science and built to last. I call this good work and I applaud OEC for tackling tough issues and designing programs that really work. Thanks guys!!
October 7, 2014
My first experience with OEC was in the 1980s when as a non-partisan legislative analyst I worked with the group on solid waste and recycling legislation. What attracted me to the organization was its fact-based collaborative approach. Over the years I have volunteered, served on the Board of Directors, and since my retirement from the board have worked with its staff on a wide range of issues that involve agriculture and Oregon's continued sustainable development. With nearly 30 years of experience working with the organization, I have come to rely on OEC as both authoritative and flexible in seeking long term solutions to the challenges facing both urban and rural Oregonians.

I manage civic engagement processes on major public policy issues. OEC has consistently been one of the most important participants in these processes because they are so effective and respected. Whether sitting on an advisory committee, bringing issues before agencies and decision makers, working one-on-one with peers and/or those who would be seen as "opponents," OEC staff and board members have always been among the most productive at achieving real progress in public policy. This is not only because they are effective at articulating and advocating for their positions, but because they know how to work in collaborative processes to seek and find solutions that are genuinely viable in the short term, while making sure decision-makers and other parties don't lose sight of the long-term goals.
July 14, 2014
I have worked with various OEC staff on different sustainability issues over the past six years. The staff is always very professional, dedicated and collaborative. They focus on getting good things accomplished without getting distracted or bogged down. They have shown great flexibility to work with different types of organizations and base their decisions and actions on good data and information whenever possible. They are a great asset for Oregon.

Toxins in our everyday environment and consumer products is an issue I prioritize, and unlike a lot of environmental organizations, so does OEC! I respect and appreciate the work they do in this area, as well as the profound strides they've made over the years in other sustainable areas on behalf of Oregon and the Pacific Northwest. OEC's leadership is deeply respected and well earned. Thank you for all the fabulous work you do!

OEC's dedication to making lasting and meaningful change is extraordinary. Their focus on identifying critical problems and thinking through innovative and practical solutions makes them an obvious leader in the Northwest. One of OEC's most admirable qualities is the skill with which the organization builds statewide and regional coalitions—bringing together stakeholders from diverse backgrounds and with often diverging interests—to successfully address pressing environmental challenges. OEC is a genuinely inspiring group, and provides Oregon with great leadership in modeling just how effective a group of dedicated people can be in making their state a better place to live.

I've served as a volunteer advisor for OEC for the past two years. In that capacity, it's been clear that the organization is keenly focused on finding solutions to Oregon's climate and public health challenges in creative ways. The staff is highly skilled and balances issue advocacy with measured tactics to include the voice of all Oregonians in work around clean water, clean air, access to healthy food, climate change and other topics vital to the livability of the state. I plan to continue to financially support OEC's important work long into the future as an investment in Oregon.

I am a long time OEC supporter and contributor. I've appreciated their advocacy on a number of important issues facing the the state - water quality, air quality, climate change, and food supply. In addition to programs to help residents, OEC's persistence and follow through moving things through the legislative process is also important to me.

Trojan Room Coffee Pot
This submission is currently being researched & evaluated!
You can help confirm this entry by contributing facts, media, and other evidence of notability and mutation.
The Trojan Room Coffee Pot is the world's first webcam prototype that was installed at the University of Cambridge to monitor the amount of coffee remaining in the brewing machine. Located in the "Trojan Room" within the university's old computer laboratory, the live feed system was implemented to save pointless trips to the coffee room by providing 128×128 grayscale images of the coffee pot in real time.
In the 1990's, the University's computer laboratory was a large seven-story building which housed approximately fifteen academics. There was only one coffeepot among them in the Trojan Room corridor and for some of the faculty members, getting coffee or refills involved a long trek across the campus buildings. In 1991, Quentin Stafford-Fraser and Paul Jardetzky, members of the "coffee club," used a functional video frame-grabber and a server program to capture the side profile of the coffeepot every few seconds. Stafford-Fraser subsequently built a client application for users to run on their remote computers, which displayed a 128×128 grayscale image of the coffee pot that was updated about three times a minute, according to the official homepage of Trojan Room Coffee Pot.
Called "XCoffee," the live feed was launched in 1999 and originally ran over Multi-Service Network Layer (MSNL) using a video capture board on an Acorn Archimedes computer.[2] When web browsers gained the ability to display images in March 1993, it was clear this would be an easier way to make the picture available. That November, the service officially moved to a website[3] built by Daniel Gordon and Martyn Johnson[4] and became the first live stream to broadcast online.
The team began attracting attention by January 27th, 1992 when Bob Metcalfe wrote about it in the now-defunct Comm Week.[1] On November 11th, 1994, BBC Radio Cambridgeshire reported on the coffee site. According to Stafford-Fraser[3], between 1993 and 1996, there was a "huge" amount of media coverage on the site, but they did not keep track of it and many news articles have since been removed. In 1996, the site had more virtual visitors than physical visitors to the King's College Chapel[13][3], making it the most-visited tourist attraction in East Anglia that year.
By March 19th, 2001, the coffee pot had over 2.3 million visitors and remained in operation.[5] That same year, it was announced by Cambridge officials the computer department would be relocating to a new building on the Cambridge campus, ceasing the need for the coffee pot camera. The site's shutdown garnered much more attention than the site had in the previous seven years. It was covered by the Communications of the ACM[6], ABC News[7], the Guardian[8], and Wired, even making it to the front pages of the London Times and the Washington Post.[9] The server was switched off for good on August 22nd, 2001, broadcasting a final image of the pot being unplugged.
eBay Auction
The coffee pot was auctioned off on eBay. It was won by the German daily news site Spiegel Online, who paid £3,350 pounds for the pot.[4] After the purchase, Krups refurbished the machine for free and it was turned on again, this time making coffee for Spiegel's editorial team. Spiegel set up a new feed, beginning in December 2001[14] which is still online.[15] They set up the coffee pot near a window, giving viewers a better view:
Notable Examples
- Professor Philip Watson from the University of Texas at Austin downloaded a picture of the pot every five minutes for a full day to test out MPEG encoding on the web.[10]
- On April Fool's Day in 1998, the Internet Engineering Task Force published a RFC (Request for Comments) entitled Hyper Text Coffee Pot Control Protocol[11][12], outlining the rules for coffee pots on the web.
- The coffee pot was parodied in the 2002 video game Hitman 2: Silent Assassin, in which users have to destroy a camera filming a coffee pot.[4]
