Home theater question??
by deluca_9 - 4/9/12 1:54 PM
Hi everybody, I just recently purchased a Sony DVD Home Theater System that includes the receiver, 1 center speaker, 2 front speakers, 2 rear speakers, and a subwoofer. The system is the Sony DAV HDZ278. It sounds very good in my 10 X 10 room, but I just have a problem getting Dolby Digital 5.1 Sound. The system itself is a DVD player with HDMI, Component, and RCA outputs, and it also has a digital optical input. I plugged the HDMI cable from my receiver to my tv, and I have a digital optical plugged from my receiver to my tv. The digital optical cable gives me sound for my Xbox 360, cable box, etc. However, when I play DVD's on the receiver I get dolby digital 5.1 sound, it even says so on the display. When I play anything else aside from the DVD player, it says Dolby Pro Logic II on the display of the receiver. So when I play my Xbox 360 or watch tv on my HD Cable box it only shows Dolby Pro Logic II sound. I have tried several games on the Xbox 360, so its not the game's fault. ANy suggestions from anyone on how to get Dolby Digital 5.1 Sound for everything I play?

Arlington arterial getting larger culverts
City of Arlington
Crews transfer thousands of fingerling fish from one side of 67th Avenue to another in Arlington, before work on a replacement culvert begins.
City of Arlington
Crews transfer thousands of fingerling fish from one side of 67th Avenue to another in Arlington, before work on a replacement culvert begins.
The city has been working for the past 10 years to make 67th Avenue safer for pedestrians, bicyclists and drivers, and now the work includes making it safer for fish, too.
The road closures, between 204th Street NE and 211th Place NE, are scheduled from 7 p.m. Friday and 5 a.m. Tuesday and the weekend of Aug. 2 through 6. During the closures, construction crews will excavate the roadway, install the culverts and get ready for paving.
The existing Portage and Prairie creek culverts under 67th are undersized. As a result, industrial areas experience flooding and fish have a difficult time passing through when the water is high. The new culverts are 80 feet long and 20 feet wide.
Earlier this month, in preparation for the culvert work, Adopt-A-Stream Foundation members helped move about 5,000 juvenile coho salmon and cutthroat trout from one side of Portage Creek to the other.
"It was amazing," city spokeswoman Kristin Banfield said. "And it went beautifully."
The urban creeks in Arlington are full of wildlife, said Bill Blake, the city's natural resources manager.
"These new culverts will significantly improve their habitat and build on the past 18 years of salmon habitat restoration here," Blake said.
The weekend closures will be inconvenient for drivers, but detours are to be posted, Banfield said. "Our contractor, Marshbank Construction from Lake Stevens, is going gangbusters to get this done."
For more information about the project and the detour routes, go to www.67thave.org or call 360-594-2425.

Since that time, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) have been working together to implement selected provisions of the legislation related to children's health care quality. Title IV of CHIPRA promises a new day for children's health care quality, especially for those 45 million children covered by Medicaid and CHIP programs. We are pleased to share the latest information about how our work is progressing and to provide key stakeholders an opportunity to share their views on this critical endeavor. Please send comments to email@example.com. Contents Overview Improving the Initial Core Set: The CHIPRA Pediatric Quality Measures Program National Evaluation of the CHIPRA Quality Demonstration Grant Program Children's EHR Format Institute of Medicine Report Identification of the Initial Core Set of Children's Health Care Quality Measures More AHRQ Resources Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Archived Materials Overview The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) is working in collaboration with CMS, the CHIPRA Federal Quality Workgroup, and external experts to fulfill a number of requirements under Title IV of CHIPRA: Identify an initial core set of children's health care quality measures for voluntary use by Medicaid and CHIP programs (select for a list of final, posted measures and archived materials). Implement the CHIPRA Pediatric Quality Measures Program using grants and contracts. The PQMP will contribute to the CHIPRA-required identification of improved core children's health care quality measures for use by Medicaid and CHIP and other public and private programs, providers, plans, and patients. Evaluate CMS's Quality Demonstration project awards and create a Model Children's Electronic Health Record Format. This site provides information on these activities and links to additional AHRQ and CMS resources on children's health care quality. Return to Contents Improving the Initial Core Set: The CHIPRA Pediatric Quality Measures Program As a followup to identifying the initial core measure set of children's health care quality measures, CHIPRA required establishment of a Pediatric Quality Measures Program (PQMP). CHIPRA's charge for the PQMP: Develop future enhanced and improved Child Core Sets of measures. Provide for development of new measures for use by: Medicaid/CHIP programs. Other public and private programs, plans, providers, and patients. CHIPRA Pediatric Quality Measures Centers of Excellence As part of the PQMP, AHRQ and CMS awarded cooperative agreement grants to 7 CHIPRA Pediatric Healthcare Quality Measures Program Centers of Excellence (COEs). All measures developed by these COEs are publicly available for non-commercial use. A list of COE-developed children's health care quality measures is updated regularly as the COEs submit additional measures.Within the list, fact sheets with additional details are available for selected measures. Go to this site for a listing of topics of measures in development by COEs. CHIPRA PQMP-related journal publications. Fact sheets with additional details will be provided as they become available. Select for more information about the PQMP. Select for the candidate measure submission form (CPCF) used by COEs to submit measures and by the Subcommittee on Quality Measures for Children's Healthcare (SNAC) to assess submitted measures. The CPCF was approved by OMB in December 2012. Select for the Federal Register announcement for public nomination of measures. Return to Contents National Evaluation of the CHIPRA Quality Demonstration Grant Program In February 2010, CMS awarded grants to 10 States to identify effective, replicable strategies to enhance quality of care and improve care delivery for children enrolled in Medicaid and CHIP. Through partnerships and collaboration, 18 States are implementing 51 projects in five general categories: the use of quality measures, health information technology applications, provider-based delivery models, use of a model format for pediatric electronic health records, and other innovative approaches to improve quality. AHRQ is leading the national evaluation of this program. Select for more information about the National Evaluation of the Quality Demonstration Grant Program. Return to Contents Children's EHR Format The Children's EHR Format was authorized by the 2009 Children's Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act (CHIPRA) and developed by AHRQ in close collaboration with CMS. The Format was developed to bridge the gap between the functionality present in most EHRs currently available and the functionality that would more optimally support the care of children. Specifically, the Format provides information to EHR system developers and others about critical functionality, data elements, and other requirements that need to be present in an EHR system to address health care needs specific to children, especially those enrolled in Medicaid or the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP). For more information about the Children's EHR Format or to access the Format, go to http://healthit.ahrq.gov/ChildehrFormat. Return to Contents Institute of Medicine Report The CHIPRA legislation called for the Institute of Medicine (IOM) to study and prepare a report on efforts to measure child health status and the quality of health care for children across the pediatric age span. Return to Contents Identification of the Initial Core Set of Children's Health Care Quality Measures CHIPRA required that an initial core set of children's health care quality measures for voluntary use by Medicaid and CHIP programs be posted for public comment by January 1, 2010. The legislation required that the measure set: Be drawn from measures already in use to measure children's health care quality. Cover: A full array of health care quality domains. A broad array of health care services affecting children. Children of all ages, all children's health care settings and providers. Be evidence-based. Be understandable to families. Allow identification of disparities by race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and special health care need status. The legislation called for the measures, when taken together, to be appropriate for use to estimate the overall national quality of health care for children. AHRQ organized a publicly transparent, evidence-informed process to identify the initial core set of measures for consideration by CMS and the Secretary of HHS. The SNAC submitted a report to AHRQ. The measure set was posted for public comment by the legislative deadline. In February 2011, CMS posted technical specifications for the measures to be used by State programs. At AHRQ's request, SNAC Co-Chair Rita Mangione-Smith prepared a thoughtful overview and evaluation of the Subcommittee's work in identifying the initial core set of quality measures, including a number of "lessons learned" along the way that could benefit similar future endeavors. Additional reports, meeting transcripts, and other documents pertaining to the SNAC and the process of identifying the initial core set of measures are available. (Select Archived Materials.)

Final Score: Utah State 41, New Mexico State 7
Logan, UT (Sports Network) - Chuckie Keeton accounted for four touchdowns as the Utah State Aggies routed the New Mexico State Aggies 41-7 in a Western Athletic Conference matchup at Romney Stadium.
Keeton threw for 257 yards and two touchdowns on 16-of-26 passing and added seven carries for 81 yards and two more scores. Kerwynn Williams also displayed his versatility for the Aggies (6-2, 2-0 WAC). He ran for 82 yards and a touchdown on 13 carries and caught three passes for 94 yards and a score.
New Mexico State (1-6, 0-3) quarterback Andrew Manley threw for 177 yards and a touchdown on 19-of-37 passing. He also threw an interception. Germi Morrison led NMSU with 19 carries for 96 yards, and Austin Franklin caught eight passes for 84 yards and the team's lone touchdown. Donte Savage led the defense with two sacks.
Utah State used a couple of big plays to jump out to an early halftime lead. On the host Aggies' first play from scrimmage, Keeton connected with Williams for a 76-yard touchdown pass. Later in the quarter, Chuck Jacobs was the recipient of another Keeton touchdown pass, this one from 48 yards. Utah State held a 14-0 lead after the first period.
Keeton added to the lead early in the second quarter when he ran 76 yards for a touchdown, the longest run of his career. Williams added to the lead with his second touchdown of the game late in the first half, capping a 10-play, 69-yard drive. Utah State led 28-0 at the break.
Despite the lopsided score, NMSU matched Utah State with 11 first downs in the half and ran 15 more plays.
Nick Diaz gave Utah State a 31-0 lead when he kicked a career-long 53-yard field goal early in the third quarter. Diaz also kicked a 48-yard field goal later in the game.
NMSU finally got on the board when Manley hooked up with Franklin for a six- yard touchdown. Franklin had caught a 29-yard pass on the previous play to put the Aggies in scoring position.
Keeton added another rushing touchdown to round out the scoring for Utah State, which gained 516 yards of total offense.
Utah State becomes bowl eligible with the win and improves to 33-7 all-time against New Mexico State.

Course Descriptions
BTEC 650: Applied Biochemistry [3]
This course will review the chemistry of living systems, with an emphasis on topics of biotechnological and biomedical interest. The course will also survey the methods used in modern biochemistry, so that students will be able to understand the connection between empirical data and the established facts and concepts presented in the course. The first part of the course will focus on the relationship between structure and function of proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, lipids, and membranes. Important chemical concepts relevant to these molecules and their components (amino acids, nucleotides, etc.), such as pH and weak chemical interactions, will be presented. After an introduction to enzyme kinetics, the course will concentrate on the principles and pathways of intermediary metabolism. The final topics will be concerned with informational biochemistry – DNA replication, recombination, repair, and transcription, as well as protein synthesis.
BTEC 651: Molecular and Cell Biology [3]
Prerequisite: BTEC 650 or equivalent course in biochemistry
This course explores the molecular basis of cell structure, organization, and function. Topics include genetic mechanisms (DNA replication, repair, and recombination, genome organization, and regulation of gene expression), internal cellular organization and activity (the cytoskeleton, membrane structure/function, cytoplasmic organelles, sorting to intracellular compartments, vesicular trafficking, and intracellular communication), cell growth and reproduction (the cell cycle and cell division), and cells in the context of the organism (cell junctions and adhesion, extracellular matrix, cell motility, and cell-cell signaling). An emphasis will be placed on experimental methods and strategies applied to molecular and cell biological investigations. Text and lecture materials will be supplemented with readings from the current literature, and significant class time will be allotted to discussions and student presentations.
BTEC 652: Molecular Biotechnology [3]
Prerequisite: BTEC 651 or permission of instructor
A lecture, discussion and project-based course that focuses on the molecular and genetic tools used to analyze and modify genetic material and used to modify organisms to produce desired small molecules and proteins. Topics will include the properties and uses of biotechnology-useful enzymes, sequencing techniques, PCR, cloning vectors and hosts, DNA and protein microarrays, directed mutagenesis, and the manipulation of expression (and its levels) of particular gene products. The experimental and model systems that will be studied include bacteria, yeast, plant, and higher mammals. Extensive use of the Internet's resources and on-line journals will be also expected.
BTEC 653: Applied Bioprocess Engineering [3]

In the second half of the course, students, working in teams, will give written and oral presentations on case studies that attempt to predict products derived from the new innovations and discoveries. The objective of the course is to give the student insight into the process of translating scientific discovery into innovative products.
BTEC 660: Regulatory Issues in Biotechnology [3]
This course provides a comprehensive coverage of all steps involved with the regulatory approval process for a biotechnology-derived product. Documentation preparation for IND, NDA, BLA. Pre-clinical safety data, clinical studies, facilities inspection and scientific and regulatory principles.
BTEC 665: Management, Leadership and Communication [3]
This course teaches the fundamentals of management and managerial leadership and communication. Managers juggle operations, finance, information technology, strategy, and projects, yet much of their success depends less on their own direct input than on their ability to enlist the active involvement of others: direct reports, other managers, other team members, and those above them on the organizational chart. It is imperative, therefore, that managers be adept at influencing those over whom they have no formal authority as well as guiding and directing those who report to them. No prerequisites.
BTEC 670: Legal & Ethical Issues in the Science Professions [3]
This course offers an overview of legal issues affecting biotechnology and other science-based industries and frames basic philosophical and ethical considerations regarding genetic data and manipulation. The course includes a discussion of intellectual property issues.
BTEC 680: Financial Management [3]
This course will cover the fundamentals of setting up, reading, and analyzing financial statements and reports in a business setting. Course topics will include: project budgeting, profit planning, return on investment, and basic corporate finance. Students will analyze case studies from the specific industries.
BTEC 685: Project Management Fundamentals [3]
Students learn the fundamentals of managing projects in a systematic way. These fundamentals can be applied within any industry and work environment and will serve as the foundation for more specialized project management study. Principles and techniques are further reinforced through practical case studies and team projects in which students simulate project management processes and techniques.
BTEC 690: Innovation and Technology Entrepreneurship [3]
This course offers an overview of innovation and its role in entrepreneurial ventures, both in new companies and within existing corporations. The basics of entrepreneurship with specific emphasis on technology-based business start-up are investigated. For the purposes of this course, technologies include IT, engineering and biotech. The course covers where to find innovative ideas and how to determine if a business idea is feasible along with an overview of the critical success factors in a new venture start-up.

A woman who worked at a local law firm has been charged with defrauding the state and a local man.
Dena Cloninger Beaty is accused of making false claims to help relatives get Medicaid, food stamps and state benefits, according to Sgt. R.S. Dover with the Gaston County Police Department.
A grand jury handed down indictments against Beaty last week, and she was formally charged Thursday. Beaty, 42, of Gastonia, was released on an unsecured bond.
In one instance, Beaty filed an insurance claim for a man, Dover said. But instead of giving the man his $16,607.64 for the fraudulent claim, Beaty kept the money, indictments state.
In that same case, Beaty used letterhead from a law firm that never actually represented the man in the claim, according to indictments.
Beaty got food stamps for one relative by claiming he was unemployed, indictments state.
In another instance, Beaty filed a claim saying family members had expenses for transporting a man to and from the Veterans Administration Hospital. According to an indictment, the man was actually given rides in a van owned by the long-term care center where he lived.
Beaty has been charged with exploitation of an elder or disabled adult, four counts of fraud of a medical provider, two counts of obtaining property by false pretense, and one count each of fraud of food stamps and forgery.
The issue was first detected at the Gaston County Department of Health and Human Services, according to Gaston County Health Director Chris Dobbins.
Workers discovered inappropriate claims and launched an investigation, he said.
From there, he went to the police.
According to Dobbins, this type of fraud is all too common.
The department has employees who specialize in recovering money obtained by fraud or improper billing.
In 2010, the local department recovered about $217,000, Dobbins said. That number has more than doubled for the current year, he added.
Not all of those cases involve illegal activity, but they are all important in recovering money that should go to help those who truly need it, Dobbins said.
"When you deal with the amount of need we have here, it's important to protect that taxpayer money," he said.
Dobbins said his department works closely with local police and the District Attorney's office to prosecute people who abuse the system.
"We want to show that we're not taking this lightly," he said.

Like many small businesses, Sassafras started out of the home. Back in 1977, the company was born with the introduction of a Chicago-Style Deep Dish Pizza Kit. This kit was the first one for pizza marketed directly to the consumer. Before that time, if one made pizza at home, they had to use a cake pan! This humble product sowed the seeds for what would become a company dedicated to the development of innovative, well-designed products for the home, with an emphasis on kids. Currently Sassafras has the best selection of kids baking products on the market. This category began with the Kids Pizza Making Kit. Now, Sassafras offers a wide range of baking kits as well as softgoods, tool kits and a silicone baking kit. All of their food products are gourmet-quality and U.S. made with an emphasis on great taste and ease of preparation. They believe strongly that there is a resurgence in home cooking and kids are leading the way!

After a two-hour bus ride to Batesville, Mississippi, the Raiders knew it would be an all or nothing battle ahead of them against the MAIS AA #4 North Delta Green Wave. Oak Hill hoped to play the role of giant killers on Friday night in the first-round playoff clash.
After a two-hour bus ride to Batesville, Mississippi, the Raiders knew it would be an all or nothing battle ahead of them against the MAIS AA #4 North Delta Green Wave. Oak Hill hoped to play the role of giant killers on Friday night in the first-round playoff clash.
A quick first half saw Oak Hill fall behind the eight ball when they turned the ball over four times, twice on kick off fumbles and twice by way of an interception. North Delta capitalized on Oak Hill mistakes scoring 42 unanswered points in the first half. Oak Hill hoped to rebound in the second half when a Dakota O'Bryant interception set up a Drew Riley 28-yard scamper to the end zone sparking a temporary Raider rally. A running clock hurt the Raiders' comeback chances as North Delta went on to win 42-14, knocking the Oak Hill Raiders out of the MAIS AA playoffs.
"North Delta is a great ball club, best team we have played all year," commented Coach Daniel Merchant in regards to North Delta.
The Raiders never had much going for them offensively in the first half. Though the first half was negative for Oak Hill's offense, Coach Merchant challenged his ball club to return in the second half and win that half. The Raiders answered that challenge coming out in the second with much better offensive possessions. Second half-scoring consisted of Riley's twenty-eight yard touchdown run following the O'Bryant interception in the third quarter and a short touchdown run in the fourth quarter.
On defense, Oak Hill did not fare well against a balanced, disciplined North Delta attack. North Delta capitalized on the majority of their possessions and increased their lead on every drive in the first half demonstrating how well they could play offense.
The final score though was the least of any worries for players, fans, or coaches at the end of this Friday night contest. Jeb Stevens, Oak Hill's wingback/defensive back, was injured on a routine tackle in the fourth quarter. Stevens was carried away to the hospital by helicopter. The Daily Times Leader will report further on Stevens' condition as information becomes available.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with the family," said Coach Merchant mentioning injured Jeb Stevens, "Jeb is a great leader; we just need to pray for him and hope everything is okay."
Though Oak Hill was on the wrong side of Friday night's game, a winless season last year has been erased from memory by first year Head Coach Daniel Merchant. Merchant knows how valuable making this playoff game is for the Raiders and rebuilding a program. Coach Merchant has nothing but praise for his whole team and especially his senior class. "We could not have done this without our Seniors," said Coach Merchant, "I told them [Seniors] they could either be a stumbling block or a stepping stone to this program.; they have definitely helped us." Merchant continued his praise of the senior class, saying they will be remembered as the class that turned the Raider program around.
The Raiders are no longer in contention for the AA crown, but can hold their heads high after a great turn-around season. The future is bright for Oak Hill football as many sophomore and junior players from this season's team will return next year, ready to fight for the Raiders next fall.

Tip: You can do Scenarios while in queue for Looking For Raid/Dungeon.
It's not well publicized, and the UI doesn't really explain this, but the scenario queue and LFR/LFD queues are concurrent. If you queue for both as dps, your scenario will pop up almost immediately When you're done, you'll be 15 min further into the LFD/LFR queue. Sometimes that's enough to put you at the head of the line, putting you in LFD/LFR immediately.
Basically, you can spend the time waiting in queue for LFR/LFD by doing scenarios instead of dailies (or trolling trade chat, etc.) if you prefer.

Tip: Scenario Queues and LFR

You can also queue for LFD and LFR and bgs at the same time.

Interesting. I thought they didn't like to let you queue for multiple forms of content at the same time for fear that you'd leave a group high and dry when the thing you really wanted popped. Are they just counting on astronomically high DPS queue times to keep that from happening?

- Rohan said...
The LFR/LFD queue won't actually pop while you are inside the scenario. It's more like you "re-enter" the LFR queue, but are inserted in the front (or wherever you should be according to time spent) when you exit the scenario.

You can queue for a scenario, and LFD, and LFR, all three at the same time.

Inspect your fence for rot, other damage
UPDATED 11:20 AM EDT Sep 13, 2013
At least once a year it's a good idea for those with fences in their yards to inspect the fence for signs of rotting, and any other damage.
Wood posts should be treated and set in concrete. Those that aren't are more susceptible to rot.
Also check the bottoms of fences where vegetation may have rubbed against it and caused some wear and tear.
If you spot signs of rot or other damage it's important to fix the problem quickly before the damage gets worse.

American Society for Microbiology Supports Antibiotic Action Campaign
CONTACT: Jim Sliwa
WASHINGTON, DC – November 14, 2011 -- The American Society for Microbiology (ASM) welcomes the launch of the Antibiotic Action campaign, in particular its multi-faceted approach in raising awareness about the urgency with which all concerned should address the need to discover new antibiotic agents.
"ASM is pleased to support Antibiotic Action which brings together stakeholders from across the globe to look at how we stimulate industry R&D in antibacterial discovery and development", says ASM President David Hooper of
ASM, the oldest and largest single life science organisation in the world, has long been concerned about the shrinking industry pipeline of novel antimicrobial drugs and its support of Antibiotic Action mirrors its support of the GAIN Act (GAIN) Act (HR 2182), which seeks to ensure Congress would offer various forms of market protection for drug makers that succeed in developing technologies for preventing, treating, detecting or identifying stubborn and dangerous pathogens, such MRSA.
"As a physician and academic researcher I am acutely aware of the important role that antimicrobials have played in underpinning and ensuring the success of 21st century medicine. I am equally aware of the threats posed by bacterial resistance to antimicrobial agents and the almost empty antibiotic pipeline, caused by the combined catastrophes of antibiotic resistance and the market failure of antibiotic development," says Hooper. "I am pleased to support Antibiotic Action, which complements likewise initiatives internationally, and takes a fresh and strident approach in bringing our many concerns to the attention of governments, medics, and the public. I urge others to support and sign up to the aims of the this campaign –through our joint actions we can and will bring about positive change and ensure we have effective antibiotics for many generations to come."
Represented by Gail Cassell, the ASM offered expert advice and evidence to The Urgent Need Initiative, from which Antibiotic Action was born.
Further information on Antibiotic Action can be found online at http://antibiotic-action.com.
# # #
The American Society for Microbiology is the largest single life science society, composed of over 39,000 scientists and health professionals. ASM's mission is to advance the microbiological sciences as a vehicle for understanding life processes and to apply and communicate this knowledge for the improvement of health and environmental and economic well-being worldwide.

Teaching Philosophy
I love teaching and I love learning. More than anything I want my students to get excited about learning new things in biology. Is there anything so fascinating as a living, breathing animal or plant?
I believe that students learn the most when they are challenged and I prefer to lead students to the answer rather than provide it directly. In today's world of internet searches, it is easy to find an answer but more important for students to be able to use answers to raise new questions. My approach in the classroom and laboratory stresses the inseparable ideas of form and function.
Research Interests
The more I learn, the more I want to know.
Cobb River Project

I've been teaching at Bethany since January of 2000. My wife and I have four children under the age of 9 which keep us plenty busy at home. We love camping with the family and exploring Minnesota State Parks and National Parks across the country.
In my free time I can normally be found outdoors playing with my kids, taking pictures, or birdwatching.

Valances are generally non-functional coverings for the tops and upper sides of the windows. Also known as "toppers," window valances add color and texture to a window and can cover any exposed hardware of other coverings, like blinds or roller shades. Valances can be wildly formal with lots of tassels and trim, or they can be as simple as a ticking stripe linen dishtowel hung jauntily from hooks.

A job is a paid position of regular employment that can either be full-time or part time. Jobs consist of specific and defined tasks and responsibilities that can also be measured or quantified. People will often identify themselves with their job title and find motivation from its usefulness. Nevertheless, an individual job is primarily worked to procure wages, not necessarily knowledge or expertise.
Jobs are often compared and contrasted with careers. The latter describes a series of related actions and employment opportunities that allow for promotion and development of one's knowledge and expertise in a given field. Careers usually begin with higher education and contain several goals that one works towards throughout his or her lifetime. Both jobs and careers can provide networking opportunities, with the potential to gain future jobs and/or further career advancement. Jobs can turn into careers, but successful careers usually require advanced skills and motivation. (Photo: Shutterstock)

'American Horror Story' Star Evan Peters Is the Opposite of Scary – The Daily Swoon
'American Horror Story' closed out its second season last night (Jan. 23), but that doesn't mean our love for star Evan Peters has to die.
Peters is quite an impressive young actor. At just 26 years old he's already racked up an extensive resume, including roles in the movie 'Kick-Ass' and on TV shows like 'One Tree Hill' and 'American Horror Story.'
He starred in both the first and second seasons of the latter — in season one, he played tortured soul Tate, and in season two he played the more sympathetic Kit Walker, a man who was accused of being a serial killer and locked up in an asylum when his wife was abducted by aliens (there's a lot going on in that show, believe me).
Peters has a total baby face, allowing him to play younger characters when need be, but he can also be much more commanding and manly, as evidenced by both seasons of 'American Horror Story.' Also, it doesn't take much Google research to find pictures of his bare butt from the show. You're welcome.
It's just too bad he's not single — Peters is currently linked to Julia Roberts' niece, Emma Roberts.

Once again it was StarkvilleŌĆÖs Gabe Myles who handed the Wave their final loss of the season. This time it took an overtime period to decide the team that got to travel to Jackson. Myles threw the overtime touchdown and ran in the winning two-point conversion to lead the Jackets past West Point for a second time in a row in postseason play.
In a hard fought rivalry game, West Point and Starkville went toe-to-toe all game on a very blustery Friday night. The game had many momentum swings along with drives that could only be described as gutsy and gritty. The Yellow Jackets were able to survive the war defeating the Green Wave 29-28 in overtime.
ŌĆ£We just came up short,ŌĆØ said Head Coach Chris Chambless after the defeat to Starkville, ŌĆ£the momentum shifted a lot in the game and whoever had it at the end will probably take the game.ŌĆØ
Starkville had a majority of the time of possession during the first half keeping the West Point offense off the field. The Yellow Jackets scored on two possessions during the first half. The first scoring drive for Starkville was an eleven play, six- minute drive that was capped off by a Darius Grayer 5 yard touchdown carry in the second quarter. The second touchdown drive for Starkville came at the 5:22 mark when Preston Baker carried the ball 47 yards for a Yellow Jacket touchdown. The Jackets led the Green Wave 14-0 in the second quarter. Tez Lane (16 carries for 130 yards rushing; 2 for 4 passing and 25 yards) started the West Point drive from the Wave 16 yard line with 5 minutes remaining in the half. It looked as if the Wave drive would get nowhere again as West PointŌĆÖs offense nearly went three and out. Yet Coach Chambless rolled the dice and went for the conversion on fourth down and got it. After the fourth down conversion, Lane carried the ball down inside the Starkville 20 yard line. Then with less than fifteen seconds left in the half, Lane connected with Aeris Williams (100 yards rushing and 18 receiving) for an 18 yard touchdown. Eric Lemus tacked on his first of two successful extra points and cut the Starkville lead to 14-7 at halftime.
West Point took the first possession of the second half 79 yards down the field and capped it off with a Williams 1 yard touchdown rush. Starkville blocked the ensuing PAT and with 6:47 left in the third quarter, West Point only trailed 14-13. The Wave defense played tremendously in the second half keeping StarkvilleŌĆÖs offensive drives short. Once again, the Wave were able to drive 67 yards into the end zone when Williams dove in from 2 yards out. Lane carried in the two point conversion; West Point now took their first lead of the game 21-14 in the fourth quarter. After trailing by 14 throughout the whole first half, the Wave had put up 21 unanswered points and had the momentum. But the Starkville Yellow Jackets still had some life left in them, when Grayer once again found the end zone on an 11 yard rush with 5:11 remaining tying the game 21-21. Starkville had the final drive in the game; the Jackets took the ball down to the Wave 7 yard line. With time running out, Starkville elected to go for the game winning field goal, but the Wave broke through the Jacket line and blocked the 24 yard kick.
The game entered overtime and West Point had the first offensive possession in the period. The Wave were able to score on the first play when Williams carried the ball ten yards around the corner for the West Point score making the game 28-21. During the Starkville overtime possession, West PointŌĆÖs defense fought admirably and pushed the Jacket offense back to the fifteen yard line after three plays. But Myles was able to strike magic when he connected with Stanley Higgins for a fifteen yard pass on fourth down. Starkville wanted to go for the win feeling momentum had shifted to their side. Myles dropped back to pass, saw an opening in the West Point defense, and ran in the go ahead two-point conversion. Starkville was victorious over West Point 29-28.
ŌĆ£I promised everybody we were going play hard and we did that,ŌĆØ said Coach Chambless, ŌĆ£We just came up short.ŌĆØ
It was a tough loss for the senior class and every West Point player as their season ended again on the field in Starkville. The Wave will have to sit out the championship game for the second year in a row as Starkville will go on to represent the North Half in Jackson December 1st at 7:00 p.m. against the Pascagoula Panthers.

Secrets of a Proper Lady (Mass Market Paperback)

Who will be the last man standing?
New York Times bestselling author Victoria Alexander's delicious series about four men desperately trying to avoid matrimony continues...
Lady Cordelia Bannister simply cannot marry a man she has not chosen herself, no matter what her father decrees. So, pretending to be her own companion, she decides to seek out information about her intended by meeting with his secretary—a man who soon beguiles her. But Lady Cordelia doesn't know the truth—the man can't resist is really her intended, Daniel Sinclair.
Daniel has nearly won the wager he made with three of London's most eligible bachelors. While two of his compatriots have surrendered to the shackles of marriage, he's remained free to woo any woman he chooses. Yet duty forces him to consider Lady Cordelia, so, determined to find a way to escape honor intact, he continues the masquerade he started.
Each finds the other completely irresistible, but when they uncover their mutual mistaken identities, Daniel and Cordelia must make the most important choice of all...
About the Author
Victoria Alexander was an award-winning television reporter until she discovered fiction was much more fun than real life. She turned to writing full time and has never looked back. Victoria grew up traveling the country as an Air Force brat and is now settled in Omaha, Nebraska, with her husband, two teenaged children, and a bearded collie named Sam. She firmly believes housework is a four-letter word, there are no calories in anything eaten standing up, procrastination is an art form, and it's never too soon to panic.

Call 811 before you dig
Be Safe. It's free. It's the law.
- Call 811 before you dig.
- Give two working days' notice before digging. (48 hours)
- Utility companies will mark the location of underground utility lines.
- Respect the utility markers (see chart below) and dig carefully.
Homeowners and contractors who are going to undertake projects involving excavation or digging must provide at least 48 hours' notice. The 811 service will connect you with the state one call center, which will alert participating utility companies such as electric, gas, cable and phone about the planned digging so they can mark the appropriate location of their underground lines if necessary.
Remember, you are responsible for marking your private lines such as invisible pet fences, sprinkler systems, yard lights and gas grill lines.
For more information on natural gas safety, tour our natural gas safety section by navigating through the links on the left or related sites on the right.
Local utilities will then come to your home or work site and mark the location of their underground lines using the following color codes:
Utilities Location & Coordination Council Uniform Color Code.
|WHITE - Proposed Excavation
|PINK - Temporary Survey Markings
|RED - Electric Power Lines, Cables, Conduit and Lighting Cables.
|YELLOW - Gas, Oil, Steam, Petroleum or Gaseous Materials.
|ORANGE - Communications, Alarm or Signal Lines, Cables or Conduit.
|BLUE - Water, Irrigation and Slurry Lines.
|PURPLE - Reclaimed Water, irrigation and Slurry Lines
|GREEN - Sewers and Drain Lines.
How does 811 work?
Call 811 from anywhere in the country a few days prior to digging, and your call will be routed to your local One Call Center. Tell the operator where you're planning to dig, what type of work you will be doing and your affected local utilities companies will be notified about your intent to dig. In a few days, they'll send a locator to mark the approximate location of your underground lines, pipes and cables, so you'll know what's below - and be able to dig safely.
But wait, what happens next?
Well, since your call was routed to your state one call center, locate crews from member utility companies have found out exactly where you are planning to dig and are on their way to mark where those hidden underground utility lines are under your lawn!
Most locate crews will arrive to mark your property within a few days, ( be sure to check your state one-call center law for specific information) and will make sure you know exactly where to dig - even though the depths of utility lines may vary and there may be multiple utility lines in the same area.
Congratulations, you've taken the first step for a safe digging project.
Well you called before digging, waited for your lines to be marked, and now it's time to roll up your sleeves and get to work!
Locator crews, possibly from multiple companies, have been to your property and made sure to mark the approximate location of your underground utility lines. Check the area before proceeding with your project-if a member utility has not responded or if underground facilities are clearly present and not located, call your state one call center again to have the area located properly.
Now, you are now officially ready to dig!
When digging, make sure to always dig around the marks, not on them. Some utility lines may be buried at a shallow depth, and an unintended shovel thrust can bring you right back to square one - facing potentially dangerous and/or costly consequences.
Now that you've made the smart call to 811 and protected yourself, your family and neighborhood, make sure to spread the word about 811. Don't forget that with time, erosion or root structure growth may shift the locations of your utility lines, so remember to call again, each time you are planning a digging job. Safe digging is no accident. Know what's below. Always call before you dig.
