5 things we know about 49ers, Chargers
SAN DIEGO — The San Francisco 49ers were the second NFC West powerhouse to come into San Diego and embarrass the Chargers.
If San Diego's starters had played, maybe it would be competitive. But the 49ers, like the Seattle Seahawks earlier this month, proved to be much deeper than the Chargers in a 41-6 victory Thursday night in the exhibition finale for both teams.
Here are five things we know about the 49ers from the exhibition season:

Congratulations on being so popular! I guess sexual stuff really does get more views here. My only complaint is that it's a little too close up. It still manages to be quite effective. You get the sense that the girl is right here trying to seduce you. The texture is wonderful.
I really like the detail on those ringlets. I think that's what those hair things are called. Her breasts do seem a little long. It's probably how the picture is done. There's a great CGI feel to this. The reflection's great too.
Thanks for the feedback. sexual stuff get views probably in most places. "sex sells" as the saying goes heh. but as mentioned from the other pic, these were posted around the time when the art portal was relatively new so there was lot of traffic and attention draw to it.

Rumors of Mini iPods 621
from the vaporware dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
...or at least it would be QUITE a coincidence if they did not use these drives.
Just to clarify, the iPod does allow you to manage files by directory, and allow you to drag and drop them using the OS, however it does not allow you to do this with MP3 or AAC files that you wish to listen to with the iPod. iTunes manages music files on the iPod, but Finder (or Windows explorer) manages the rest of the files on your iPod (for when it is in firewire disk mode).What ISN'T done, is the ability to manage files by directory: to drag and drop them using your os and "just have it work."
This is just silly. The only DAPs similar to these 'mini-iPods' are the Rio Nitrus [digitalnetworksna.com] @ US$219.99 SRP and the RCA Lyra RD2760 [rca.com] @ US$249.99 SRP.
So what we are to believe is that Apple is going to put out a 'mini-iPod' that has 3 times the capacity for less than half the price? Make sense: after all, Apple is known for putting out products that are all of sleek, stylish, well-made and cheap.
Wait, no, they aren't; we forgot the Apple Tax(tm)!
I can believe that possibly Apple is reading a 'mini-iPod', but if it's less than US$300 I'll be damned surprised.
Apple's in a very good position right now - they've managed to get themselves into the good books of both the Free software community and the music industry.
However, if they add Ogg Vorbis support to the iPod then they'll have to
It seems that they are pursuing the third option: ignore Ogg Vorbis and piss off the very small (and to them, not particularly useful) Xiph community.
A language that doesn't affect the way you think about programming is not worth knowing.

A grip accessory, especially for a writing instrucment such as for a convention pencil or pen, a cosmetics pencil or applicator, a medical instrument, or the like. The device has a core with a bore made from a material that slides relatively easily over the instrument, an aperture in the core, and an elastomeric sheath with protrusions that extend through the aperture and into the bore. The protrusions provide resistance to the sliding fo the instrument through the bore when the instrument's outer surface engages the protrusions, thereby keeping the grip accessory in place but allowing the accessory to be place on and removed from the elongate instrument.
1. A grip accessory, comprising: a core both defining a bore adapted to removably receive an elongate instrument slid thereinto and comprising a relatively non-elastic material having a surface and an integral sheath formed over the core for providing a comfortable gripping surface and also engaging a portion of the surface of an elongate instrument in the bore.

13. A method for making a grip accessory, comprising:
A. molding from a first material a core having a bore and at least one aperture; and
B. molding over the core a sheath of a second, elastomeric material, having a geometry that includes at least one protrusion that extends past the aperture into the bore, wherein the first material and the second material bond during the molding process.
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to an accessory grip for use with an elongate instument, such as a writing pencil or a cosmetics pencil, and to a method for making the same.
2. The State of the Art
Since the vulcanization of rubber, various natural and synthetic polymers have been formed into aids for gripping objects. A common grip aid prevalent now is on writing pens, where the elonate pen's plastic body is molded with, or overmolded with, a soft polymeric grip, such as described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,036,385. Another common grip aid is one which is made separately and the user then places over a pen or pencil. Such devices are described in the following U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,601,598; 4,689,020; 4,832,604; 4,932,800; 5,056,945; 5,143,463; 5,876,134; 6,019,534; 6,347,898; and 6,439,791. Various designs for these slip over grip accessories are also prevalent, such as U.S. Des. Pat. No. 414,807. (The disclosures of all of the foregoing patents are expressly incorporated herein by reference.)
Problems with slip over grip accessories for writing implements are due to such devices being made of a single, unitary material that must accommodate multiple, often contradictory functions, such as easy sliding placement over the implement, and staying in position and not sliding off once placed.
In light of the foregoing, various objects of this invention are to provide an improved grip accessory that is easier to slide onto an elongate instrument, while maintaining the placement of the accessory after placement.
In one embodiment the inventive grip accessory comprises an inner portion or core comprising a relatively non-elastomeric material surrounded by outer portion or sheath having a relatively elastomeric material, the entire accessory having a bore adapted to accept an elongate instrument. In related embodiments, the core has at least one aperture and the outer portion has at least one ridge that extends through the aperture to engage the outer surface of an elongate instrument inserted into the bore.
In another embodiment this invention provides a method for manufacturing a grip accessory having an outer portion and an inner portion, comprising injection molding said inner portion from a non-elastomeric polymeric composition and overmolding onto said inner portion an outer portion from an elastomeric polymeric composition.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a grip accessory.
FIG. 2 is an end view of a grip accessory.
FIG. 3 is a cross section taken along line 3�3 shown in FIG. 1
FIG. 4 is a cross section taken along line 4�4 shown in FIG. 1.
The use of grip accessories for elongate instruments like pens, pencils, and the like is well-known. Such grip accessories that are not molded directly and permanently onto the instrument are uniformly made of an elastomeric material that is slid over the instrument.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the grip accessory 101 having sheath 103 and an core 105 defining an inner surface of the bore 107 extending the length of the accessory.
FIG. 2 is an end view along the bore showing the inner and outer portions, the inner surface 109 of the core defining the bore, and a plurality of ridges 111 extending past the inner surface into the bore.
FIG. 3, a cross section taken along line 3�3 in FIG. 1, shows the bore extending the length of the device. The core and sheath also extend essentially the entire length of the bore. The sheath is shown with a slightly convex surface to provide an ergonomic aspect, and can be provided with ridges, stippling, or the like to provide a desired aesthetic or feel to the device to the outer surface of the device. The core has an aperture 113 extending partially along the bore so that a portion of the sheath is exposed to the bore. The inner exposed portion of the sheath is provided with ridges 111 that extend past the inner surface 109 of the core into the bore 107. Instead of or in addition to one or more ridges, the sheath can provide any type of protrusion that extends through the aperture into the bore.
FIG. 4 is a cross section taken along line 4�4 of FIG. 1 which is 90� to line 3�3. As shown, the core has two aperatures and the sheath provides two pair of ridges.
The device is sized so that when it is placed over an elongate instrument, the ridges engage the outer surface of the instrument. Although shown with a round bore, it should be apparent that the bore can be of any geometry to accommodate the outer geometry of any elongate instrument. Further, the bore can be conical to accommodate an instrument having a girth that increases from the end of the instrument.
The core is preferably made of a material that is rather inelastic and has a hard, smooth surface. Preferred materials include polyalkylenes such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and polybutylene. Other polymeric compositions, such as poly(vinyl chloride), nylon, or polyacrylate can also be suitable. In addition, the core may be made of metal, ceramic, or wood, although polymers are preferred. The polymer used for the core can be plasticized so that it is flexible, but should be inelastic with respect to the sheath so that it slides relatively easily over the surface of the elongate instrument for which the grip accessory is desired.
The sheath is preferably made from an elastomeric material, such as polyisobutylene, a polyurea, or the like. Suitable elastomeric polymers are well-known and often used in the prior art slidable grip accessories; and commercially available (e.g., Versaflex brand polyurea elastomers from VersaFlex, Inc., Kansas City, Mo., and Santoprene brand thermoplastic elastomers from Advanced Elastomer Systems, Akron, Ohio). The material for the sheath can be chosen with a desired hardness, moisture resistance, or other property as desired. Hypoallergenic polymers are also suitable. The sheath material should provide a comfortable feel to the user, and provide some resistance to the sliding of the elongate instrument through the bore when the instrument engages the ridges. Accordingly, the sheath can be tacky instead of, or in addition to, being elastomeric, as either property provides resistance to a surface sliding thereover.
The grip accessory as described herein is preferably made by injection molding, such as bi-injection molding or overmolding. For example, a mold having two ports is used; the core is molded from a desired polymer using one of the ports, and then the sheath material is introduced through the other port and is molded over the core. The core and sheath materials are preferably chosen so that they are compatible and melt bond during the molding process, or have sufficient compatibility so that they do not delaminate from each other.
The grip accessory is preferably used in combination with a writing pen or pencil, or a cosmetics pencil or applicator. The grip accessory can also be used with a medical instrument, such as a retractor, or a dental instrument such as a curette or scaler.
The foregoing description is meant to be illustrative and not limiting. Various changes, modifications, and additions may become apparent to the skilled artisan upon a perusal of this specification, and such are meant to be within the scope and spirit of the invention as defined by the claims.

I had stopped for a slice of pizza on my way home from seeing my boyfriend at the bar where he works in downtown Orlando. I grabbed my to-go box of pizza and started walking towards my car when I found myself behind two guys. A woman was walking towards them and they immediately invaded her space. I'm not sure what they said to her at that moment but she kept walking and said, "No, I'm good," with her entire body bending away from them and her hand in the air, palm up towards them as if pushing them away without touching them. They then started screaming at her as she hurriedly continued walking.
"You're f*cking ugly anyway!"
"I wouldn't even f*ck you!"
"You got a flat ass, you need a f*cking pizza, bitch!"
They stopped at the next bar and as I got close enough for them to hear me, I chose to stand in solidarity with this woman, intervene as a bystander, and said, "So disgusting." One piped up and said, "What's disgusting??!" Straight up, I said, "You. You are disgusting." The barrage of insults then ensued in my direction.
More examples:
"YOU are fucking gross!" (Good one.)
"You're wearing glasses, what the fuck?!" (Umm…?)
"I would never fuck you!" (To which I responded, "I couldn't care less.")
And then finally I got what is apparently one of the guy's go-to lines, "You got a flat ass!!"
At this point, I turned around (yes, I was still walking away and was fairly far away as they continued to harass me) and knew it was time #iHollaback. I said, "Well, at least I'VE got a pizza then, right?!!"
Fortunately, this made me laugh and was clearly a bit too clever for them to process so they shut up. It isn't to say I wasn't worried they were going to follow me, I was worried. But I felt at that time that it was appropriate for me take one for my ladies and femmefolk and not let these types of men perpetuate the idea that all spaces are men's spaces and those that don't identify as "one of them" should just shut up and be harassed. Nope, not gonna take it.
P.S. Officers from the Orlando Police Department were across the street the entire time watching this, outside of their vehicles, arms crossed, seriously WATCHING this go down, and did nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Spurred By PRISM Scandal, StartPage & Ixquick Surpass 3 Million Daily Searches
Alternative search engines are having a good week, likely thanks to public awareness and concern over data and privacy issues being raised by the PRISM scandal.
StartPage and Ixquick, two small search engines from the same company, announced this week that they surpassed three million daily searches for the first time. More specifically, they hit 3.4 million direct searches on Wednesday (June 12).
Ixquick.com is the company's meta search engine that doesn't include Google search results; the company launched StartPage.com in 2009 to provide Google search results with the increased privacy that Ixquick offers.
CEO Robert Beens credits this week's surge in traffic to consumers looking for a more private search experience in light of the PRISM-related revelations of the past week.
"People are outraged over secret US surveillance programs and they're looking for safe, effective search alternatives," Beens says in the company's announcement. "We're excited at this growth and we welcome our newest users with open arms."
DuckDuckGo, another alternative search engine focused on privacy, just announced its first day with 2 million searches, and it's now set its own search quantity record for four straight days this week.

I am pleased with this duvet cover, overall. Some notes: * It feels much more "slick" than I expected (I might not have read the description fully). Instead of feeling like cotton, it's more of a synthetic. I was initially disappointed, but that wore off quickly. * The reverse side is beautiful! It makes me feel like I'm sleeping in a hotel bed (plus, you can turn the "colored" side in so that the whiter side stays whiter - not that I roll around in dirt before I hop into bed, but you know what I mean. GENIUS!) * No wrinkles after washing and drying! * Easy to use! I use it with a down comforter and it was ridiculously easy to place the comforter inside the duvet. There was a little bunching at the bottom, but once I used it one or two nights, it corrected itself.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Very similar - even though the word "Blue" is in the name, the website pictures it as more of a green-blue and this is true in person.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. High quality
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Very.
For some reason, I am really drawn to this shade of blue. I also got the Madison Park quilted coverlet set in blue to dress my bed for winter. Together these two pieces look wonderful. For the duvet cover, sometimes it seems a duvet inside a cover walks to one edge or another. Although there are no ties in this cover (nor were there ties on the duvet i also purchased), the duvet seems to stay in place very well. Once the dog gets out of the way, a good shake puts everything where it belongs, and puffs it up nicely. There is no problem with pulled threads from the dog sleeping on it either. I could use both the duvet and the cover to be about four inches wider, but they are standard size, so I guess I am just asking more than I can expect. I have not washed the set yet, so don't know how it will do after a good laundry session.
This is my first duvet and was not exactly sure what to expect. I had heard that these thing can be hard to put on comforters. This was not my experience. This was very easy for me to use, went on very easily. The fabric feels really great almost like satin. I agree with another reviewer said it really is more green than blue. I am very happy with my purchase and this seller.
I am always worried about purchasing something for my bed without feeling it first. I hoped that because it was microfiber it would be soft enough. I was pleasantly surprised! I bought this cover to replace a microfiber duvet cover that I hated! My old cover held onto every single dog hair it could. It's easy to brush stuff off with just my hand on this one. I bought this cover for my king sized down alternative comforter. It fits great. The ONLY negative thing about the cover is that the comforter moves around inside the cover. A simple solution is to attach ties on the inside which is what I think I will do. The cover is a bit thin so if you're looking for something thick this is not the cover for you. The color is just like the picture which is great. The cover is a great buy for the price. I hated to spend a lot of money on one with my messy husband. He proved me right after he dripped chocolate sauce on the cover. I didn't wash it right away and worried about staining. I just rubbed in laundry soap and threw it in the washer. No stains left! Unbelievable! I would recommend this cover!
It is very pretty, much better looking in person. Happy with my purchase. Again overstock doesnt disappoint.
Beautiful colors and design. Did look like it faded a tiny bit after being washed but still looks good. Very soft and my husband loves it too.
This is very soft and easy to wash. Doesn't need ironing either! Love it!
This duvet cover set is quite nice. It fits my comfort just fine and the colors are good, but it is very hard to match up with curtains. I've been searching for the right color of curtains on overstock to complete the set, but haven't been able to find them yet. On the package it says that the color is a grace teal. Overall, I really like it and I'm go use it for spring and summer months. Excellent pricing and good quality. Thanks again Overstock!!!!
Absolutely beautiful! True to size, quality made with an expensive look. Appears more on the green side than blue with bedroom's dark green surrounding carpet. One side has all season colors, reverse side is just as attractive for a different 2nd LIGHTER look. GREAT BUY that can be used enveloping your comforter, enveloping a lighter summer blanket, or simply as a summer layered look. This is an excellent buy!
This cover works out just right for me ! I have brown curtains in my room ....It looks great with colors ! Family & Friends love them too ! I'm HAPPPPPY !!!!'
The Pics do not do this set justice! Its gorgeous!! And its reversible! 25 bucs really!! Great buy abd goes with our dark cherry wood sleigh bed! Can't go wrong!! Love overstock!!
I was so surprised when I received this order the material is awesome so soft ....also another feature of this cover is you can flip it over and it has a white background with cool designs. It is an amazing value and price.
This duvet was nice but for some reason I didn't receive the pillow shams with it. Otherwise, everything else was good. I would have given it at least four stars if the shams had arrived with it.
Duvet is generously sized. Easy to fit over my down comforter. Pattern and corks were as pictured, which is not always the case when shopping on line. Overstocked have a great selection of duvets. Better than any where else I've shopped
Although the fabric is light-weight, it washes beautifully, dries quickly, and is holding up extremely well, even with my dog sleeping on it daily! I am very pleased with this duvet set.
I made a new cover for my bed and filled this with a thicker material...saved alot of money and have a new bed cover now! Smiles.
This is a perfect solution at a very reasonable price. It is a great transition piece from summer to winter and adds nice color to the room.
Nice set especially for the price..color true to picture & very soft..simple pretty pattern and at the price can swap spring set out & use this for fall.
I really like it...................................................................

TUESDAY, Dec. 13 (HealthDay News) -- For patients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT), additional catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) reduces the frequency of post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) and improves iliofemoral patency, according to a study published online Dec. 13 in The Lancet to coincide with presentation at the annual meeting of the American Society of Hematology, held from Dec. 10 to 13 in San Diego.
Tone Enden, M.D., from the University of Oslo in Norway, and colleagues investigated whether additional treatment with CDT reduced development of PTS. A total of 209 patients, aged 18 to 75 years, with first-time iliofemoral DVT were selected within 21 days from symptom onset. Participants were randomly assigned to conventional treatment alone (108 patients) or additional CDT (101 patients). Co-primary outcomes were the frequency of PTS, as measured by Villalta score at 24 months, and iliofemoral patency after six months, which were assessed by intention-to-treat analysis.
The investigators found that clinical status data were available for 90 percent of patients after completion of 24 months of follow-up. PTS was identified in 41.1 percent of patients given additional CDT, compared with 55.6 percent of patients in the control group at 24 months (P = 0.047), corresponding to an absolute risk reduction of 14.4 percent. Iliofemoral patency after six months was reported in significantly more patients in the CDT group versus controls (65.9 versus 47.4 percent). Three major and five clinically relevant bleeds were identified among 20 bleeding complications related to CDT.
"Additional CDT should be considered in patients with a high proximal DVT and low risk of bleeding," the authors write.

Lead Poisoning Dangers
leadfreekidsJune 28, 2010
IÂm doing some work with the Ad Council, the Coalition to End Childhood Lead Poisoning, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to help raise awareness about the harmful effects of lead poisoning to children living in homes built before 1978. They put together some interesting and informative PSAÂs which you can check out at www.leadfreekids.org. ItÂs definitely an issue to watch out for when renovating your home  especially when re-painting part of it.

Barry H. Landau has rubbed elbows with presidents, helped plan inaugurations, and claims one of the largest collections of Oval Office memorabilia outside museums and presidential libraries. His Manhattan apartment includes a collection of china from Thomas Jefferson's inauguration and a picture of himself kissing John F. Kennedy's dog Clipper.
Police say he tried to expand that collection by pilfering dozens of rare documents from the Maryland Historical Society on Saturday. Landau, whose connections reportedly bridge the Washington, New York and Hollywood elite, now sits in Central Booking and is being held without bail.
The artifacts police say he and 24-year-old Jason Savedoff tried to take during a Saturday of reviewing historical papers at the Monument Street nonprofit's archives include documents signed by Abraham Lincoln, presidential inaugural ball invitations and programs, a commemoration of the Statue of Liberty, and a commemoration of the Washington Monument.
The items range in value from $100,000 to $500,000, and are just four of the 60 documents police say the men planned to steal, meaning the total value could be in the millions.
The FBI is investigating the case with the Baltimore Police Department. The historical society declined to talk about the case, saying the investigation was continuing.
"We're working closely with law enforcement agencies on this, and I'm not at liberty right now to talk about the case any further than that," said Burt Kummerow, president of the Maryland Historical Society.

My latest WIP, a cool old Mexican guitar
silvamaeJune 8, 2010
I loved doing this one. It's ready to grout with my favorite - a pale brown. The stained glass is from the glass factory in Vancouver, WA that closed its doors. The 23K gold edges are from dinner plates that I bought at a thrift shop in Wimberley. The "strings" are dichroic stringers from Helios Glass, and the "tuners" are beads. This is a birthday present for a man who owns a music shop in Austin. After I grout this, I will go back to working on the glass head. Thanks for looking!

The Declaration: What Does Independence Mean To You?
By NPR Staff
Originally published on Thu July 4, 2013 8:48 am
We often celebrate Independence Day with backyard barbecues and fireworks, forgetting the document that started this whole country: the Declaration of Independence.
For the past 20 years Morning Edition has asked NPR hosts and reporters to read the document on the Fourth, as a reminder of our country's history. This year, we decided to ask visitors at the National Mall in Washington, D.C., to give it a try.
After our readers familiarized themselves with the Declaration, we asked what independence meant to them. Many started with broad statements, but then gradually talked about freedoms that were the most important to them.

area rugs? (long)
I am getting my hardwood floors refinished next week and I will be in the market for some area rugs. I am having the living room, dining room, hall and 3 bedrooms finished. I don't have a fortune to spend on rugs and I'll probably get some that are pretty inexpensive and then upgrade later, but it would depend on what I find. I have some questions.
First of all, I don't know anything about rugs. I don't know what they can/should be made of, what to look for in quality or even really where to by them (aside from Lowes, etc). We did check Lowe's/Home Depot and were not impressed. I have not checked Hagopian (not sure if this is a regional place) but my understanding is that they are VERY expensive. I have looked online a little bit and I tend to like the designs that are on Pottery Barn/The Company Store type places more than the tradiontal oriental type style rugs.
So...where do I look to buy rugs? What materials are best for dining area? What materials are best for bedrooms? Also, the living area and dining area are all one room, so while the two rugs don't have to match, they should coordinate somewhat. Finally, I don't even know how you are supposed to place rugs....Is the furinture supposed to be completely on them? Half on, half off? Can someone show me pictures of how to decorate with area rugs?
I just go with 90 dollar walmart rugs..they last about four years, then I'm ready for a change. I buy the same for the living and dining area. I'm planning on ripping out the wall to wall in the bedrooms. There, I'll use washable throw rugs..(I hate dust).
My flooring is laminate, but you get the idea. Six by eight size works well for me.
cflaherty is wrong. Please allow me to rewrite that post. Go to a local Rug Store (I personally think Shaw makes some really great rugs of all styles) .Write down the style that you like. If you feel the need, go online and price the rugs...then go back to the store and ask if they can match the price on that rug. A dealer can beat or match every single time. On an area rug, the risk is low and there is no such thing as a bad profit. This is the American thing to do. This is what our forefathers fought for. Please do not just use the store as an online gallery as many independents have fought long and struggle hard over the years to have a nice showroom for you to visit. People just have to wake up. If they can not or refuse to match it, then buy online....but give the dealer an opportunity.

Government Careers
Teachers of the next generation of federal employees are watching the partial government shutdown with trepidation about the future. While educators see a sense of mission among millennials who are preparing for government careers, obstacles to such careers are mounting.
"We want the best and the brightest to want to work for the federal government, and we are swimming against the current right now," said Daniel Gordon, associate dean for government procurement law studies at George Washington University Law School.
The partial shutdown of the federal government is only the latest in a series of setbacks for federal workers that are tarnishing the government brand, including pay freezes, furloughs under sequestration and a ponderous, unwieldy human resources system that can be discouraging to would-be employees.
Traditionally, a career in government offered stability to employees, even though salaries at the entry level and senior executive level aren't competitive with the top ranks of the private sector. Don Kettl, dean of the School of Public Policy at the University of Maryland, thinks the era of this social contract may be coming to an end.
"Our students have always been willing to make the tradeoff in terms of starting salary, but it's difficult to take an additional risk of knowing if you're going to be paid at all," he said.
For federal workers who are trying to advance their careers with graduate education, the current situation is especially bleak. "My grad students – a lot of them are pissed," said Mark Rom, an associate professor at the Georgetown Public Policy Institute. "Some of them are working and their jobs are immediately affected."
Private sector firms are taking advantage of instability in federal employment in their recruitment, according to Tim Higashi, a graduate student studying public affairs at George Mason University. When he was interviewing for jobs after graduation, he said recruiters warned him that the climate in Washington made a job with the federal government a dicey proposition. "It's such a 180-degree turn from the traditional rhetoric," he said.
Idealism is still driving young policy wonks. Dana Doran, an intern at the Partnership for Public Service, was raised in a family of news junkies, adored "The West Wing," and cut her teeth volunteering on political campaigns. But she's no longer convinced that government is her only career choice. "It's discouraging to see the shutdown and gridlock and what occasionally looks to me like petty behavior," she said. A non-profit like the Gates Foundation could provide opportunities for public service on par with what government has to offer, she said.
Government is going to have to find ways to entice talented millennials into federal employment, said John Palguta, vice president for policy at the Partnership for Public Service. About 18 percent of the federal workforce is under the age 35, while 44 percent of feds are 50 and over. He sees a big retirement boom in the offing, one that could be accelerated if more experienced feds decide to move on because of pay freezes, budget cuts, and uncertainties about the future. "The people I talk to say we're not getting the quality of candidates they think they need, particularly at the PhD level," Palguta said.
Even qualified motivated young people are having problems getting through the door in the current climate, said Paul Posner, director of the Masters in Public Administration program at George Mason. "Some of our best students are having trouble getting jobs in the federal sector," Posner said.
Without the ongoing budget crisis, the federal government might have to make some accommodations for the millennial generation, even for the cohort that has made the decision to elect a career in public service. "Students really do want to make a difference, but they worry whether big institutions are nimble enough to allow them to make that difference," Kettl said. "Take that situation and compound it with the shutdown and other things that increase their cynicism, and those risks are conspiring to cause more and more students" to look elsewhere for employment.
Ultimately, the federal government won't have a problem filling seats. The difficulty for the government lies in attracting workers with skills coveted by the private sector, and not just warm bodies. Policy professors are concerned that the diminution of the federal brand will result in innovators and risk takers –even those with a strong interest in government – looking elsewhere for work.
In the procurement world, Gordon sees a "toxic environment where people are afraid to take any risk for fear of criticism." He links this situation to a decline in the quality of the work, as people operate defensively to avoid rebuke rather than seek to optimize spending of taxpayer dollars.
The only upside the academics see in the standoff is that it provides a rare teaching moment to explain the adversarial style that is built into the machinery of government.
"Congress was designed at the very beginning to maximize conflict and make it difficult to get things done," Kettl said. "Our founders did this on purpose, although not to try to create the kind of conflict that we see now."

Nice article, covers many items that I wish others outside of the small group that reads this would see. But I still think a new graduate should not take the Gov as a first job, go to Real Life, it pays better (for the motivated) and has the potential for a wider range of experiences which will help you and the Gov should you decide to go with the Gov (from an engineering point of view).
No kidding. I've been saying for quite a while now that this "deal" won't be felt by the fools in congress even 12 seconds past their finally agreeing to a compromise, but managers int he government will spend a very long time with issues like what this article is about and non-excepted employees reminding their managers of that fact and doing the bare minimum. And their's little that can be done to somebody who's doing the bare minimum.

Phoenix, Ariz.-based Metro light rail recorded increased ridership in the first six months of 2010 compared with the same time last year.
The ridership trend is, on average, 13.5 percent greater than in 2009 and 53.7 percent greater than the original weekday projection of 26,000.
"What's unusual here is that 2009 was our inaugural service year and you would suspect that ridership would hit an all-time high and then level off in subsequent years," said Metro CEO Stephen R. Banta. "But, we're not seeing ridership soften. In fact, just the opposite is occurring with more and more people trying the system and connecting to work, school, leisure and life."
In April 2010, Metro had its highest month and ridership days on record serving more than 1.2 million riders and as many as 55,000 in a single day.
In June 2010, when ridership usually slumps as a result of the summer heat, Metro saw a 15 percent increase from 815,566 in 2009 to 942,154 in 2010.
The train wreck, which occurred in the early morning of March 24, 2014, when the operator allegedly fell asleep, injured more than 30 people and caused roughly $9 million in damage. The lead railcar had to be cut up to remove it from the escalator.
The vehicle, which was a designed and built by Brookville Equipment Corp., will be the first streetcar in the U.S. that utilizes wireless traction power.
Opened in 1935, Newark Penn Station is listed on both the State and National Registers of Historic Places. The station was originally designed and still operates as an intermodal facility serving pedestrian, taxi, bus and private vehicle traffic generated by the more than 50,000 transit customers who use the station each day.
Part of the problem is an aging fleet, according to officials. Calgary Transit placed a $200-million deal in 2013 to buy 60 new light rail vehicles; however, those vehicles will not be operational until 2016.
The new trains for Hermann-Hesse railway line will be completely emission-free. In times of increasing energy costs and higher level of pollution, the development of this technology is essential.

Regulators in Washington and in Europe are scrutinizing the deal based on antitrust concerns, The New York Times reported Saturday.
The concern is that the airline would be so large it would dictate prices and less competition would hurt consumers.
The Government Accountability Office, a bipartisan accounting research office and not a regulator, has concluded the merger would reduce competition in more markets than has occurred in previous airline mergers.
The GAO released its findings in June, the Times said.
American Airlines went into bankruptcy in November 2011, but based on its size a merger between AA and US Airways would give U.S. Airways shareholders 28 percent of the combined company, the Times said.
US Airways Chairman and Chief Executive Officer W. Douglas Parker said Friday at a shareholder meeting the combined businesses would operate 6,500 flights daily. He said customers and shareholders would benefit from a merger.

There appears to be something special brewing on the hill.
The NFL is supposedly investigating whether the Patriots used deflated footballs in their AFC Championship game. REALLY? The only thing that was deflated last Sunday was the Green Bay Packers fans! What a giveaway! In Packerland lore, the names of Bart Starr, Fuzzy Thurston, Paul Hornung, Vince Lombardi and others are remembered forever. Now you can add the name of Packers tight end Brandon Bostick (though he may not be a Packer for long). Bostick is the Packer who had the on-side kick right in his hands and let it fall through, enabling the Seahawks to recover and win. At ...
