Marriott gives San Francisco State $250,000 to train future employees

Marriot is investing in its future workforce.
As part of a series of grants, the J. Willard and Alice S Marriott Foundation has donated $250,000 to San Francisco State University to create a career center for its business students.
While it will focus on hospitality and tourism majors, the program's career and professional development services will be available to business students across all fields. The idea is to have job-ready students upon graduation.
Money from the grant will be used for renovations in the business school on SF State's main campus. It will also be put towards hiring career counselors to train students in leadership, business etiquette, team building, cultural awareness and self-analysis.
According to Linda Oubre, dean of the College of Business, the grant also serves as seed money for what will hopefully attract other organizations and hospitality corporations in the industry.
"We wan to work with multiple corporations to reach out and develop job-ready students for their industry in the future," she said.
As part of the program, representative and recruiters from Marriott International plan to frequent the center to do professional development training and provide networking opportunities for students.
Oubre said that Marriott has been looking to hire more students from SF State as it's expanding throughout Asia and South America.
The hospitality industry is among the largest employers in the Bay Area. SF State graduates about 250 students per year from its hospitality program.
Renée Frojo covers hospitality, restaurants, retail and nonprofits for the San Francisco Business Times.

Rangers acquire Bengie Molina for Chris Ray and PTBNL
Jun 30, 2010, 10:08 PM EDT
10:08 PM: Scott Boeck of USA Today reports that the deal is done, and the Giants will receiver reliever Chris Ray and a player to be named later for the veteran Molina. Let the Buster Posey era begin.
9:12 PM: Now Morosi says that the Giants will not be getting either Davis or Saltalamacchia in the deal. So, uh, scratch that thought.
8:33 PM: Jon Paul Morosi of FOXSports.com reports that the Giants and Rangers are working toward a deal that would land veteran catcher Bengie Molina in Texas. According to Morosi's source, the trade could be finalized within the next 24 hours.
Molina is off to a disappointing start this season in San Francisco with a .257/.312/.332 batting line, three home runs and 17 RBI over 202 at-bats. His power would be better showcased in the Rangers' cozy ballpark and moving him would allow the Giants to free up playing time for impressive youngster Buster Posey.
Morosi has been given no indication as to who the Giants might be targeting from Texas, but first basemen Chris Davis and Jarrod Saltalamacchia have been mentioned as possible trade pieces and either would make sense.
- t ball - Jun 30, 2010 at 9:45 PM
No, neither Davis nor Saltalamacchia would make sense for an aging catcher having a piss poor season.
- tda - Jun 30, 2010 at 10:50 PM
it wasn't that long ago that texas had saltalamacchia, teagarden, and laird from which to pick their catcher of the future. now they're dealing for a molina? what went wrong? how didn't they convert that troika into a starter?
- Boo Hoo Florio picked on your team - GET OVER IT - Jun 30, 2010 at 11:54 PM
Quality of their prior catchers not-withstanding, Molina is a decent "get" for the Rangers considering what they have given up so far.

Gas prices could fall throughout the summer, AAA says
- Staff Baltimore Business Journal
AAA Mid-Atlantic predicts that the price of gas could continue to fall throughout the summer, WTOP reported.
Gas prices nationally have dropped 28 cents in the past eight weeks to $3.51 per gallon of regular unleaded gasoline. AAA predicts the average price for a gallon of gasoline to dip below $3.50 in the next few weeks, and could go as low as $3.33 per gallon by the Fourth of July holiday weekend.

Dion hand-picks Etobicoke candidate
Liberal Leader Stéphane Dion is courting renewed controversy with his decision to appoint Toronto professor and author Kirsty Duncan as the candidate for Etobicoke North in the next election, replacing MP Roy Cullen.

Share via Email
OTTAWA–Liberal Leader Stéphane Dion is courting renewed controversy with his decision to appoint Toronto professor and author Kirsty Duncan as the candidate for Etobicoke North in the next election, replacing MP Roy Cullen.
"This is such a privilege," Duncan told the Star yesterday.
Though Duncan, a 41-year-old associate professor at the University of Toronto, is seen as a prize catch for the Liberals and a significant addition toward Dion's goal of fielding 103 women candidates in the next election, her appointment could be raising a few hackles in the riding.
Etobicoke North's riding president, Ranjit Chahal, said he was caught off guard by the announcement, saying he learned of Duncan's appointment only when the Star contacted him. "I was talking to Roy Cullen this morning. He didn't even mention it."
Chahal has called a riding meeting tonight to discuss how to react to Duncan's selection.
This is the fifth person to be hand-picked by Dion without having to face a nomination fight. The Liberal leader also ran into criticism when he designated Joyce Beatty as the candidate in the March 17 by-elections in Desnethé-Missinippi-Churchill River in Manitoba.
Cullen, who has decided he needs to move on after serving for nearly 12 years, won the riding in the 2006 election with 61 per cent of the vote.
Duncan was part of the Canadian team of experts that shared the Nobel Prize with former vice-president Al Gore for work on the International Panel on Climate Change.

Originally written on Fox Sports Wisconsin | Last updated 8/20/14
The Milwaukee Brewers feel they should be doing much better. They certainly can't do much worse, sitting at the bottom of the NL Central. The Brewers look to build on a stirring comeback victory over the Philadelphia Phillies as the teams meet Saturday night at Miller Park. Milwaukee (23-37) has dropped 26 of 35 to fall into last place. After losing 5-1 to Philadelphia (31-31) in the opener of this four-game set Thursday, the Brewers appeared headed for a similar fate Friday. Milwaukee, though, erased a four-run deficit against Cliff Lee and won on Aramis Ramirez's walkoff single that scored Jean Segura in a 5-4 victory. "We know we are better than we have played so far this season," said Ramirez, who missed 23 games earlier this year with a knee sprain. "I hoping this can be a springboard to get us to start playing better." The Brewers took two of three at Philadelphia last weekend. Segura legged out a triple in the seventh inning Friday and scored the tying run on an error. ...

Consumers used its mobile app to make 26 million transactions this year.
Since the January debut of the Starbucks Corp. mobile app, consumers have made more than 26 million transactions using the app to buy a Starbucks beverage or pastry. A key to the app's success is that it is more than a mobile payment tool, suggests one analyst.
To pay using the app, a consumer taps the Card button to display her account balance. When ready, she taps a Touch to Pay button next to an image of a Starbucks card; that generates a bar code that can be read by a bar code scanner at the point of sale. Consumers have reloaded $110.5 million onto Starbucks cards directly through the mobile app, Starbucks says.
However, the app does much more than enable a payment that could be more easily accomplished with a plastic Starbucks card. Consumers can store details about their Starbucks cards in the app along with their favorite drinks. They can send gift amounts of between $5 and $100 for use at Starbucks to others via email or to the recipient's Facebook account. Consumers also can check their rewards status in the My Starbucks Rewards program via the app.
The app's true value is that it enables consumers to do more than pay, says Rick Oglesby, an analyst at research and consulting firm Aite Group LLC. "Starbucks is leveraging the mobile app as an extension of its overall brand and as a way to increase the brand's presence among consumers," Oglesby says. "The actual payment component is nice and valuable, but ultimately, when you look at the capabilities built into the app, the value extends beyond having a quick and easy way to pay."
Starbucks says mobile payment is the most popular app feature overall. During the first nine weeks of the program there were more than three million transactions, compared with six million transactions for a nine-week period starting in October, demonstrating a significant jump in customer adoption, Starbucks says. The growth is solid, Oglesby says, but not astronomical. "Consumer behavior changes very slowly," he says.
The Starbucks mobile app demonstrates that mobile payment programs can work in the United States, Oglesby says. "There is real consumer and merchant value there," he adds.
Consumers can use the Starbucks mobile app at nearly 7,000 company-owned Starbucks stores, 1,000 Target Corp. stores and nearly 1,000 Safeway Inc. stores. The Starbucks mobile app is used most often in New York, Seattle, San Francisco, Chicago and San Jose, CA.
Starbucks released an Android version of the app in June and a version for Canada in November, and plans to release an app for the United Kingdom in January for use at more than 700 Starbucks stores.

GeCube 9600 XT All in Wonder - HTPC for the Masses - Benchmarks - Quake III ArenaToday we have GeCube's brand new Radeon 9600 XT All in Wonder on the test bench. It offers the same features as the more expensive Radeon 9800 Pro AIW but at a price point more affordable for the masses.
Quake III Arena
Quake III Arena is a real-world OpenGL benchmark that we have been using here at TweakTown for quite a while now because it has proven itself to be one of the best gaming benchmarks around to compare a wide range of different products. Quake III is getting very old, but is still one of the best ways of testing video and PC systems for any instabilities and best performance.
While Quake 3 might separate the 2.8ns cards and the 3.3ns card a little bit more it is only more noticeable due to the increased frame rates. Instead of three FPS separating them it's 30 FPS. With these frames you wouldn't notice a difference between any of the cards anyway.

Updated Top 32 rankings
The top five remains unchanged, and two new players make their debut
There is a loaded slate of games for Week 11 in college football, and with eight prospects in our Top 32 playing in the Oregon-Stanford and LSU-Alabama games, NFL scouts figure to be paying close attention.
The top five players on our board remain the same this week, but a pair of newcomers crack the Top 32. There is also a swap at the quarterback position, with Johnny Manziel improving to the third-highest-ranked QB on our board.
Here is our updated ranking of the top 32 NFL prospects for the 2014 draft.
(Note: The scouting reports will largely stay the same for each edition of these rankings, but we'll update as needed based on recent performances and upcoming matchups. Draft-eligible non-seniors are noted with an asterisk.)
Analysis: Clowney's numbers are down this season, but he has still been a dominant player because of how disruptive he is and how much attention he draws from opposing offenses. He possesses a rare blend of size, athleticism, strength and speed. He is just as effective with his bull rush as he is with his speed rush.
Analysis: Mariota is facing arguably his biggest test of the season Thursday night against the Stanford defense. He has surged up these rankings since the beginning of the season on the strength of his tremendous upside. He has a very quick release and good arm strength, plus much-improved accuracy. As a runner, he has elite speed and explosiveness.
Analysis: Bridgewater has been overtaken -- for now -- by Mariota as the No. 1 QB in these rankings, but he has still had an excellent season. In the two most critical areas we evaluate for quarterbacks -- mental makeup and accuracy -- Bridgewater rates very highly. He is tough, has a quick release and a strong arm, and, in my opinion, is the top pocket passer in college football.

Shocking dashcam video shows the moment two cops open fire on a car being driven by a mom with CHILDREN in the back as she fled the scene after a heated altercation
- Officers fought with a young teen and opened fire on a minivan filled with children
- A window was also smashed by a baton-wielding cop
- Driver Rihanna Ferrell and her teen son were arrested three high-speed chases
A shocking dashcam video shows the moment a New Mexico state trooper opened fire on a minivan with five children inside after a route traffic stop went horribly wrong.
Now the New Mexico State Police have opened an investigation into the conduct of the troopers - and driver Rihanna Ferrell and her 14-year-old son are facing charges.
The traffic stop took place south of Taos, New Mexico, on October 28 - but it has sparked local outrage after the video from a state police dashcam went public.
A New Mexico state trooper points a Taser at a minivan full of children after a routine traffic stop spun out of control
When the minivan fled for a second time, a state trooper (left) opened fire on it, despite five children being inside it at the time
Footage shows the officer casually walk up to the vehicle and begin speaking with the driver.
When the officer walks away, presumably to run the license and registration and decide whether to write a ticket, the van takes off.
A short chase ensues before the driver again relents and the van makes its way to the side of the road.
The officer at this point has had enough. He storms up to and opens the driver's side door while ordering the driver out of the vehicle.
She refuses and a struggle ensues as children inside the Ford can be heard screaming.
The driver's son, 14, according to ABC News, gets out of the van but thinks better of the idea as the cop pulls a Taser on him.
Enough is enough: The driver's teen son then gets out to defend her
Ms Ferrell does eventually exit the vehicle and gets into a physical confrontation with the officer while he tries to arrest her.
At this point, the teen appears to attack the cop as Ms Ferrell is at once being pulled back into the van by a screaming younger girl and being pulled into the middle of the road by the cop.
The teen and the officer tussle before he runs back into the van as more police arrives to assist the over-matched officer.
The primary officer is then shown smashing the right rear passenger window with his baton as petrified children trapped inside the van scream for help.

That's it: Having seen enough, the teen jumps out of the car to confront the officer
Ms Ferrell has had enough, she slams on the gas and drives away as a second officer opens fire on the back of her van – emptying multiple rounds in the direction of young children.
A frantic chase through wrong-way traffic and a small town ensues before Ms Ferrell finally gives herself up in front of a hotel.
Both she and her son are seen being led away in handcuffs. It is not clear what they have been charged with, nor is it clear exactly where the incident occurred or where officials placed the remaining children.

Easter blessings from UCAN
Dear Reader,
There is no more important week in the year for Christians than this Holy Week. We call it Holy because of the mystery we celebrate - God's gift of His son who loves us to his death on Calvary and beyond.
Because of that love, we wish each other Happy Easter even when we know there is a lot of tragedy about it - Good Friday. As Christians, we know that what we see happening with and in Jesus goes to the heart of what we know from our own experience of life.
At the Second Vatican Council, the Christian lives we all lead were described as being shares in the Paschal Mystery. We have our share in the death and resurrection of Jesus every day. Our lives are part of the Paschal Mystery.
At UCAN, we work to describe that mystery in the unfolding tragedies and astonishing blessings of the people we seek out and report, feature and comment on.
While at times deeply distressing work, this effort of ours gets its coherence in the same way the death of Jesus did - because of the astonishing grace of a God who never gives up on life and love.
Because of that, we can wish you Happy Easter.
Best Wishes,
Fr. Michael Kelly SJ
Executive Director
Tibetans In India Shave Heads To Focus Attention On Tibet
- India
- April 29 2008
Young Tibetan men and women have tonsured themselves in an eastern Indian town to protest what they call Chinese aggression in their homeland.
Pasang Doma, a Tibetan Buddhist woman who organized the April 21 program in Darjeeling, told UCA News such events will continue until a peaceful solution is reached on the Tibetan issue.
Darjeeling, a hill town in West Bengal state about 80 kilometers south of the India-China border, harbors some 10,000 Tibetan refugees. It lies 1,500 kilometers northeast of New Delhi.
Doma told UCA News several Tibetan groups in the town have been shaving their heads to seek "divine intervention to woo the Chinese to be human and give up the genocide, both cultural and human, in our holy land."
On April 21, between 500 and 600 Tibetans had themselves tonsured in an open place in Darjeeling. Doma explained that Tibetan Buddhist monks and nuns normally shave their heads as a sign of austerity, humility and renunciation, but "we are performing this sacred hair-shaving ritual for peace in Tibet."
Later in the evening, about 2,000 others joined them for a candlelight procession through the town.
Doma said her people in Darjeeling are concerned about the situation in Tibet. Beginning March 10, hundreds of young Buddhist lama, or monks, and other Tibetans protested in Lhasa demanding independence for Tibet.
The Chinese authorities tried to quell the protests, triggering riots. Tibetan solidarity groups claim 150 or more Tibetans were gunned down in a Chinese crackdown, while China reported the rioters killed about 20 people.
Doma said she had not expected so many youths to volunteer to get tonsured as they are "very fond of their varied hairstyles," being influenced by television. Even the ritual shaving of heads is waning, she added.
In her view the large turnout for the tonsure protest thus showed "our people are deeply pained at the happenings in Tibet" and are committed to "a spiritual and nonviolent fight against China."
Jesuit Father Patrick Mani Pradhan, who is engaged in Church-run programs to empower women in the region, also saw the event as "exemplary." Darjeeling, he noted, is "very close to Tibet, so the local Tibetans have first-hand information about the sufferings of the Tibetans in Tibet."
Commending the youth for keeping calm and choosing the tonsure ritual as a means of protest, the priest expressed hope their message of nonviolence would reach the Chinese leaders in Tibet.
Lakpa Bhuti, a Tibetan girl who joined the protest, told UCA News on April 24 that she had "a very mysterious feeling" during the event. "Tears spilled out of my eyes," she said, even though she acknowledged the "token act of solidarity with our suffering sisters and brothers" as just a small gesture.
According to Bhuti, Tibetans in the region have also adopted another "novel strategy" to attract the world´s attention to the Tibetan problem. They prick their left thumb with a needle and collect the blood on a piece of cloth or paper. "The bloody thumb impressions on the cloths would be kept as mementos of our struggle. The ones on the papers will be sent to the U.N. (United Nations) to draw its notice to the bloody happenings in Tibet," she explained.
Mihir Sen, a Hindu at the candlelight procession, told UCA News the tonsure ritual touched him. He said he sensed a "deep spirituality and yearning of peace" through the event. Most participants, he noted, were aged 12-30. "They have been suffering so much. Yet they are not advocating violence. Instead they are embracing a path of protest of love, prayer and sacrifice," he added.
