10 Idaho State University students awarded MILES internships to participate in a wide range of ecological, social science and geological studies
Posted March 3, 2014
Ten Idaho State University students have been awarded internships through Idaho's Managing Idaho's Landscapes for Ecosystems Services (MILES) program to participate in a wide range of social science, ecological and geological studies.
The program builds Idaho's capacity to study complex social-ecological processes, especially those associated with water demand and valuation of ecosystem services.
MILES is a National Science Foundation Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR)-funded project to advance the understanding of feedback between social and ecological systems and ecosystem services in mid-sized cities in the face of climate change and urban growth.
The MILES grant provides up to $4,000 per student participant in the MILES Undergraduate Research and Internships (MURI) Program. The MURI Program is designed to engage undergraduates in research to develop a future workforce of scientists, educators and stakeholders that can better manage Idaho's landscapes, including valuable ecosystem services.
The 10 ISU students selected as this year's recipients and their majors are:
• Elijah Nixon – junior, secondary education, English
• Cody Feldman – senior, ecology
• Adam Eckersell – senior, biology
• Zandra Higley – senior, international studies
• Desirea Valladolid – senior, political science
• Erica Dombrowski – junior, earth/environmental systems
• Lakin Beal – senior, biology
• Megan Reilly – senior, earth/environmental systems
• Kimberly Archibald – junior, earth/environmental systems
• Sean Boggs – junior, geomatics technology
Archibald, who was born and raised in Idaho Falls, said she is excited about her internship. "Being selected for this internship is the single biggest highlight so far during my three years at Idaho State University," Archibald said. "My hope is to come out of this internship feeling confident in my ability to handle lab work and gaining the skills necessary to prove myself in my field."
Boggs, a Navy veteran who moved to Pocatello with his family to attend ISU, said he "has significant experience dealing with GIS from a land-use perspective and looks forward to getting experience in different fields through working on the MILES project."
Feldman, a senior in ecology, said he plans to graduate in 2014 and return for a geotechnology certificate. He said he is doing an internship with ISU ecology Professor Charles Peterson to incorporate Geographic Information System (GIS) data into an ecosystem they are studying. He is also working with a doctoral student and ISU geosciences Assistant Professor Sarah Godsey on a hydrology study of the North Slope of Alaska.
"The reason I got into ecology as a major was growing up in Idaho and spending summers in Alaska working on a fishing resort," Feldman said. "Those things have really cemented my love for the outdoors and fishing. I feel like best way for me to contribute to society is to help preserve the ecosystems I love and allow other people to have the same experiences as I have had."
Up to 60 MURI Scholars positions are offered each year across Idaho, with a goal of recruiting a large number of students traditionally underrepresented in STEM fields such as women, ethnic minorities and students with disabilities. MURI students will primarily work within MILES study areas located in the Boise/Treasure Valley), Coeur d'Alene/Post Falls/Moscow, and Pocatello/Idaho Falls areas. The duration of program can range from eight to 16 weeks but will vary depending on scope of work.

The agency won the business in a final shoot out against 18 Feet & Rising. The incumbent, Saatchi & Saatchi New York, and other pitching agencies Fred & Farid Paris and The Collaborators were knocked out at an earlier stage.
BBH has been briefed to produce the first global campaign for Old El Paso, which will run primarily in Europe and Australia.
Isabelle Moynier, the international marketing director at Old El Paso, said: "We are delighted to embark on this new collaboration with BBH. Old El Paso is a unique brand that brings fun and smiles to the table from Canada to Australia.
"There is still enormous untapped potential of penetration headspace and BBH will be a great partner to rally around Old El Paso all the people looking for a spark in their meals."
Ben Fennell, the chief executive of BBH, said: "If you can't have fun working on a brand like Old El Paso, then you are working in the wrong industry. It's a great brand, with great clients, and it deserves great work."
In May, the Mexican food brand launched a one-off outdoor and digital campaign, created by Work Club, to coincide with the Jubilee weekend.
UK media planning and buying for Old El Paso will continue to be handled by UM London, General Mills' media agency.

These unusual clouds are often mistaken for UFOs (or visual cover for flying saucers) because of their weird shape. They are not a sign of alien life , but rather a special type of cloud, called lenticular clouds because of their unusual lens-like shape. They tend to form at high altitudes, normally aligned at a right-angle to the wind direction. These photos were taken by Peter Murray over Mt. Rainer from Vashon Island which is off the coast of Washington State.
The cloud is formed when warm, moist air runs into the surface of a mountain or mountain range. The mountain's topography forces the air upward, which cools and condenses the air -- turning it into a cloud.
As the air sinks back on the other side of the mountain, it dries out and the cloud begins to dissipate. The clouds do have plenty of moisture but their appearance doesn't always mean it will rain.

W370 Battery life?
Is the battery life for the Motorola W370 much shorter than advertised, or did I perhaps get a lemon? I have seen the battery life listed as both 7.5 hours talk/10 days standby and 3.33 hours talk/18.8 days standby, but my experience is that it is *much* shorter than this (and I did completely charge/discharge several cycles initially as instructed). Anybody care to send their comments on battery life?

floor insulation options
It seems these are the most readily available options for insulation below the cooking floor (besides Vermicrete, which I will not be using):
FB Board
Insblock (did I get the name right?)
Are there any other options ? Which one did you use? Are you happy with it? I'd like to call it a day and get the FB board, but the shipping to NY is expensive.
Re: floor insulation options
Re: floor insulation options
4 inches vermiculite 5:1 portland cement mix.
This will be the least expensive and probably the most commonly used option.

- Thomas Cooper Library, Room L511
- This event is co-sponsored by TRIO Programs and the Center for Teaching Excellence.
In this time of instant gratification, short attention spans, and communicating in 140 characters or less, it seems more and more difficult to engage today's students in the traditional classroom setting. Without having to transform into a technology-wiz, there are specific strategies that can engage students from the first class and help to sustain that engagement throughout the semester. The student who is engaged tends to attend class more regularly, participate more frequently in class, and will be more motivated to complete course requirements. In addition, the student who is engaged in the learning process will do just that...learn. This workshop will highlight specific strategies to engage students in small classrooms as well as in large lecture-hall style courses. Come learn ways to enhance your teaching style to help promote greater student engagement in your classes.

After losing the first three Texas Collegiate League All-Star games, the Rogers Hornsby Division finally broke through.
McKinney's Derek Wiley hit a three-run home run in the sixth inning to lead the Hornsby All-Stars past the Tris Speaker Division 3-0 Monday. Wiley, who is from Belmont University, was named the game's MVP.
"I was looking for a good pitch and I was down 0-2, so I was going to battle," Wiley said. "I got a good curveball to hit and just put a good swing on it."
The Hornsby pitching staff held the Speaker All-Stars to three hits.
Greer a hit
Former Rangers outfielder Rusty Greer is making his mark in the TCL.
Greer, the first-year manager of the Colleyville LoneStars, managed the Speaker All-Stars and received a loud cheer from the fans during pregame introductions.
"It's a big honor," Greer said of his All-Star nomination. "Hopefully, it means I'm doing something right."
Greer's team is 6-10 and in last place in the division, but the 2007 Rangers Hall of Fame inductee created a buzz when he was first introduced as the Colleyville manager and has helped give the TCL a familiar face.
"That's kind of why I took this job," Greer said. "I wanted to help out not only the Colleyville LoneStars but the league as well."

In this article you will find a solution for getting existing POP email delivered to your iPhone instantly via PUSH a bit like the BlackBerry experience
If you are reading this I guess you have an iPhone or you are thinking about moving to an iPhone. Perhaps you are thinking about making a move from BlackBerry but you are unsure because you have become reliant on the BlackBerry push email technology. I too have recently been in this position having switched to an iPhone and then after much frustration returned back to my BlackBerry 9900 for the better battery life and email service. This however was short lived and I have now switched back to the iPhone. After much research I have discovered a solution that has addressed all of my initial frustrations with it, especially as a business device. If your business has made a decision to move to iPhone's then do not despair.
For the benefit of any readers who may be less knowledgeable about all of this, here's a bit more background on what it's about before we get down to the different steps on setting this up.
The main issues I had with the iPhone as a business user
As a business user, I need my phone to last the whole day, get my email, allow me to make those important calls, use the apps I need and never have to worry about my phone running out of juice. The issues that I had were mainly with battery life and email handling. On days out I had to turn off many iPhone features that I wanted to use and all this to save valuable power. As soon as I discovered that the battery drain for me was mostly being caused by it fetching email every 15 minutes, I knew what I had to address. I have several email addresses so it was a longer process over 3G or EDGE each time it checked for new mail. Wi-Fi isn't always available when you're on the move is it.
A bit of background about email types POP and 'PUSH'
PUSH email is sent to the device as soon as it hits your mail server. The device does not need to keep checking. This is where BlackBerry have a great product and service. As far as I know BlackBerry servers also compress the data, which is something I don't believe the iPhone will do, however the process of getting those messages instantly is the same. Just be sure to check your data plan with your mobile network to make sure you don't go over your data allowance.
POP email accounts do not work with PUSH even though it may be switched on in the iPhone settings. POP email manually checks the server for new mail at various intervals and then retrieves new messages to your device for you.
For PUSH email to work on the iPhone, you need an email service provider who supports PUSH such as Gmail or Apple's iCloud. There are others.
So which email service provider is best for me?
There is debate over the best email provider supporting PUSH, which I'm not going to discuss here but the principle is similar whichever you choose. Reliability of service and security of your data is probably the most important issue with any service.
As we are dealing with the iPhone, I personally decided to go with Apple's iCloud as my PUSH email provider having tested it out. It is also currently free of charge up to 5 GB of storage. It does a great job at pushing the email, webmail is simple when accessing it from a desktop computer plus the iCloud service is integrated in the new iOS and Mac OS X 10.8.2 (Mountain Lion). If you are working with apple products and can understand how they all work together, they're simple, save time and seem reliable so far. They're support via AppleCare, if you have it, is also great if you do run into any technical problems.
So how do I get PUSH email to work on the iPhone with my existing email accounts?
Note: This will only work if the forwarding option is available with your existing email service provider.
What you need
There are two things you will need to make this work.
- An Apple ID (iTunes account). If you have an iPhone, you will already have an Apple ID. This is the account you use to purchase apps, music, films etc
- An iCloud email address. To do this, on your iPhone go to SETTINGS > ICLOUD and login with your Apple ID. This will create an account with iCloud and then allow you to choose a new email address for iCloud e.g. firstname.lastname@example.com Once you have iCloud activated you can login here www.icloud.com to login and access all iCloud features from your desktop computer, including mail.
How it works
Now that you have an iCloud email address, any email that goes to that address will be pushed to the iPhone or I guess, any other Smartphone device that support PUSH with the correct setup.
So to get incoming mail (that has been sent to your existing email address) pushed across to your iPhone from perhaps your hotmail, AOL, BT connect, business domain etc, first you need to forward a copy of those emails to your new iCloud email address. You then setup your iPhone mail settings with the iCloud server, which is possible in several different ways.
So it works like this…
An email is set to email@example.com
/ Your server FORWARDS it to email@example.com
/ Your iCloud inbox pushes it to your device inbox
IMPORTANT – I assume in these instructions that you still want to receive a copy of your emails on your desktop computer as normal. This is dependent on whether your email provider allows you to keep a copy on the server when using forwarding.
Setup Instructions and Options
IMPORTANT – I assume in these instructions that you still want to receive a copy of your emails on your desktop computer as normal. This is dependent on whether your email provider allows you to keep a copy on the server when using forwarding.
STEP 1 – iPhone mail settings
Decide on Option 1 or Option 2 below and read the relevant section
Setup Option 1
Use basic iCloud features on iPhone with PUSH
Replies to incoming mail sent from the iPhone will be from your new iCloud email address
Setup Option 2
Use iCloud to benefit from pushed emails
Replies to incoming mail sent from the iPhone will be from one of your existing email addresses
I trust you now have iCloud activated and that you have registered an iCloud email address as already mentioned. If not, go back to the 'What you need' section above.
iPhone setup
- On your iPhone go to - Settings > iCloud > Login with Your Apple ID > Switch Mail to ON
- Then go to your iPhone's main screen and open the Mail App and you will now see iCloud under inboxes and also Accounts
- If you delete and organise mail on the device it will also be deleted from the iCloud and vice versa
Your device is now setup to function as described in Option 1. All replies to emails will be from your iCloud email address, not from your existing email address that the sender used.
Now you can test the push feature by sending an email to your iCloud email address. You may need to manually open the Mail app on the iPhone the first time to create the connection. All future emails should then be pushed to your device automatically.
I trust you now have iCloud activated and that you have registered an iCloud email address as already mentioned. If not, go back to the 'What you need' section above.
iPhone setup
- On your iPhone go to Settings > iCloud > Turn the mail option to OFF
- Back to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars
- Add account > Other
- Add mail account
- New Account
- Name = Your name as you want it shown in the inbox of those receiving your mail
- Email = Your existing email address e.g. your business domain or BT connect etc.
- Password = The password of that same email account e.g. BT connect etc
- Description = iPhone mailbox name e.g. My email via cloud
- Host Name = imap.mail.me.com
- User Name = firstname.lastname@example.com (insert your iCloud email address)
- Password = Associated iTunes account password
- Host Name = The outgoing mail server of your existing email e.g. BT connect
- User Name = The username of your existing email account e.g. BT connect
- Password = The password of your existing email account from e.g. BT connect
Your device is now setup to function as described in Option 2. All replies to emails will be from your existing email address e.g. BT connect or whichever you chose to be your reply address. These will not be sent from your iCloud address. NOTE: If you forward email from several different email addresses to the iCloud address, all replies will show as coming from your chosen email address in the setup procedure above step 5.
Now you can test the push feature by sending an email to your iCloud email address. You may need to manually open the Mail app on the iPhone the first time to create the connection. All future emails should then be pushed to your device automatically.
Step 2 - Forwarding all existing emails to your iCloud address
IMPORTANT: - Make sure your email client on your desktop computer (e.g. Outlook) is setup to leave a copy of your email on the server for at least a few days otherwise you may not receive all of your email on your iPhone if you, a colleague or a family member uses your desktop while you are out.
Now that your phone is ready to receive email you need to setup a forward from each email account that has mail you want received on your phone. You may have one or even ten different email addresses that people use to contact you.
Still want email to arrive on your desktop?
For me, it was important that every email I am sent arrives not only on my iPhone but also on my office and home computers. In this case, you must make sure you setup your email forward to keep a copy of forwarded messages. This is normally a tick box.
How to setup a forward
To do this you need to go to the mail server where your various email address settings are accessible. Using BT connect as an example, I had to do the following:
- Go to myoffice.bt.com and login to my account using their webmail service
- Go to my account settings / options
- Find the forwarding options (On BT connect it was under Connected Accounts)
- Type in my iCloud email address where the mail will be forwarded to
- Tick the box 'Keep a copy of forwarded messages' (This allows my desktop to also receive them)
- Save and logout
It may take a few minutes for the forward to activate.
Contact your email provider or administrator for direction if you need it.
That's it. You should now have an iPhone that thinks it's a BlackBerry (at least with it's email).
Q. Can I set this up iCloud / iPhone Push for multiple accounts i.e. so that I can send email from more than one of my email addresses, e.g. to reply to business email using my company address and personal from my personal address??
A. The quick answer is NO. It is only possible to setup one inbox on the iPhone using the above method with iCloud. You would need more than one iCloud email address to do this and Apple only issue one iCloud address per Apple ID as used for iTunes. I guess you would have to setup another Apple ID for this purpose however you would need to check Apple's Terms & Conditions. I take no responsibility for that one!
Link to Apple's iCloud mail server settings http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
These recommended steps worked for me and I now have many email addresses forwarded to my iPhone in real time as I did with my BlackBerry. My experience so far is that my iPhone battery is lasting longer allowing me to leave other apps etc. on whilst out and about.
I do not give any guarantees that this will help your battery life as it is dependent on too many other factors such as how many accounts you have, how much email you receive and which other apps and settings you have active on your iPhone at any one time.
If battery life is still an issue for you, checkout the iPhone covers you can buy with an external battery built into the case. Type the phrase 'iPhone external battery case' into a search engine and you'll see a multitude of products on offer.
These settings worked for me. If you follow these steps you do so at your own risk and I accept no liability if you find them not to work as intended, or you create problems due to errors made in the setup process, or due to future changes made by any service or service provider after the date this article was written.
Please feel free to add comments below. I hope you find this information useful.

Magnetism is an aspect of electromagnetism by which materials exert attractive or repulsive forces on other materials. The most familiar examples of magnetism are the household refrigerator magnets and the compass. Fundamentally, every electron is an extremely tiny magnet. But unless they are aligned together, as in a bar magnet, the effect is undetectable.

In the midst of their drive to reduce federal budget deficits, congressional Republicans are also intent on cutting taxes. One way they may accomplish that is by forcing the IRS to curtail its drive to force tax cheats to pay what they owe.
Among budget cuts Republicans are proposing for the current fiscal year is $600 million in IRS spending between now and September. IRS Commissioner Douglas Shulman told a House subcommittee last week that such a budget cut over just six months likely would reduce federal revenues by $4 billion. The IRS "would need to make substantial cuts to its enforcement programs," he said.
In other words, cut spending by $600 million, lose $4 billion in revenue and add $3.4 billion to the deficit. That's absurd arithmetic and unfair to the large majority of taxpayers who pay what they should. Shulman said the IRS collected $2.345 trillion in fiscal 2010, ended last Sept. 30, some 93 percent of federal receipts.
The biggest beneficiaries of reduced enforcement would be those whose income isn't reported to the Internal Revenue Service by someone else — such as many small businesses or high-income taxpayers who can take advantage of complicated tax avoidance schemes.
Ordinary folks have their wages reported on W-2 forms, interest from a bank account on 1099-INT's, dividends on 1099-DIV's, pensions on 1099-R's and often other types of income on 1099-MISC's. IRS computers later match those reports with what recipients show on their tax returns.
The income of most small businesses is reported only on their tax returns, and many don't report all of it, according to IRS studies. Such underreporting is responsible for a large share of the so-called tax gap — the difference between what taxpayers owe and what they pay on time. In the latest estimate available, IRS pegged the gap at $345 billion in 2001, including $109 billion related to income from businesses such as sole proprietorships and $197 billion due from individuals.
The Tax Policy Center, a joint venture of the Urban Institute and the Brookings Institution, has estimated that more than 60 percent of underreported individual tax is for business and self-employment income that the IRS can't easily verify.
Underreporting by small business is so widespread that the Bureau of Economic Analysis, the Commerce Department agency responsible for producing data for the gross domestic product or GDP — more than doubles what's reported as nonfarm proprietors income in its calculations.
Rudy Penner, a former Congressional Budget Office director now at the Urban Institute, noted that Congress years ago prohibited CBO from crediting any increase in the IRS budget with generating more revenue, but added he doesn't doubt that more money spent intelligently on compliance would more than pay for itself.
"I still think the evidence is pretty strong that there is plenty of money to be collected" from those who aren't paying what they owe, Penner said in an interview. "We are far from the point of harassing the public."
The desire to avoid paying taxes likely was a factor in the strong opposition last year to a provision of the health-care form act intended to help pay for the cost of extending health insurance to most Americans. It required all businesses to report the name, taxpayer identification number and amount paid each year to any supplier receiving $600 or more. The provision was expected to add $19 billion to federal revenue over 10 years.
The idea was denounced as an intolerable paperwork burden on small business — and even the IRS ombudsman wondered if the IRS itself would be able to cope with the flood of information, much of which would be in the form of paper. President Obama has agreed to a repeal of the provision, which Congress is expected to take up shortly.
Another reporting requirement effective this year should help reduce underreporting, however. Financial networks, such as credit card systems, that collect payments from one person or business and remit them to someone else now have to report the amounts if they exceed $1,000 in a year. In this case, the reports and the matching with tax returns can be done electronically.

Walmart announced plans to stop paying its store employees an additional $1 an hour for working on Sunday, according to The Washington Post.
This new move will take effect next year and only applies to employees hired after Jan. 1—it will not affect current staff. It also will not apply to employees based in Rhode Island and Massachusetts who were not eligible for the extra $1 because they get 1.5 times their hourly rate for Sunday work under state law.
"We regularly review our compensation programs and we are confident Wal-Mart's pay and benefits are as good if not better than other retailers," said Walmart spokesman Greg Rossiter. He did not divulge how much money this new move will save the company.

Health and Beauty: Free Radical – A rebel molecule
A free Radical (or, free Radicals) can be in the cause of more than sixty human diseases….
Through out history man has looked for, (as did Ponce De Leon did) the fountain of youth. We are constantly hearing in the advertisements about yet another discovery of a miracle pill that will turn back the aging clock.
If all these promises were true we all would possibly be children again.
Logical speaking it took years of unknowingly abuse on our bodies to get where we are today. If we expect to turn it around in one week we need a miracle, and God might grant that for you. But for the rest of us we need some help in this area of how to start the turning back of, and maybe slow down of the aging clock.
Our decisions of today brings the circumstances of tomorrow.
The media has taught us how to eat foods without nutrition in excess and then use antacids.
When we get sick there is a pill for everything under the sun, a pill to make you sleep, a pill to get you started, a pill to speed you up, a pill to slow you down, a pill for this or that, you choose. Later you have to take another pill for the side effects of the first pill. Where do we get off?
Looking for something that will stop the radical decline in our lives can be confusing to say the least, but I want to tell you there is hope in this area for us.
Looking to what can be working in the cause of more than sixty human diseases which include:
- Cancer
- Heart Disease
- Immune System Decline
is a by product of our daily body function.
A process called Oxidation.
Oxidation is a process in which a molecule in our body has only one electron but needs two. The electron (free radical) doesn't have a partner electron so it looks for an electron from a healthy molecule. Upon finding a electron from a healthy molecule this free radical steals one electron from the healthy molecule which in turn makes the healthy molecule a free radical and causes the destruction process of disease and aging.
This oxidation, although it is a part of our life is not a bad thing when it is kept in balance. Just as a greasy "French fry" every once in a while is not bad, but when you take it to an extreme it produces an undesirable end result.
Thanks to Big Food, and Big Chemical Companies, we have lost the balance of the oxidation in our bodies.
In order to help turn this around we need to first of all (as I state in nearly every article) we need to eat the right foods, get some type of exercise, and have some knowledge of a few antioxidants.
Now antioxidants are what fights against free radicals that causes a lot of our problems. I'll give you a few things that will help you in your fight against old man time.
The major antioxidants are:
* vitamin A taken in Beta Carotene form. I would take 25,000 I.U. daily.
*Vitamin C : I would use 2,000 mg. a day to start with.
* Vitamin E I would use 400-800 I.U. a day.
* Selenium: I use anywhere from 50-200 mcg daily.
* Co-Q-10: I would use 100-400 mg a day.
* Alpha Lipoic Acid : I would use 50- 250 a day.
* Pyenogenol: I would use 60-90 mg a day
* Nonie – Mangosteen – Acai – Pomegranate – juices
Using these antioxidants daily will not bring you a quick fix, sometimes it may take months before seeing any results, but the scientific data is there. So start to day on the rebuilding of the body, you'll be glad you did.
Some Foods That Help
Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC uints) is a way of rating the antioxidant power of foods.
Some of the top scoring foods that are high in ORAC uints and help in countering oxidants are:
- Kale
- spinach
- strawberries
- raspberries
- plums
- broccoli
- alfalfa sprouts.
We should consume at least 3,500 ORAC uints a day, but 5,000 to 6,000 a day will give more protection against ageing.
This all points to a pratice of eating at least "5" servings of fruits and vegetables a day.

APNewsBreak: Danica says she's dating Stenhouse
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. Danica Patrick's personal life is no longer a secret - she's dating a fellow driver.
Patrick revealed to The Associated Press she and Ricky Stenhouse Jr. are a couple, ending widespread speculation about the nature of their relationship.
"I have a boyfriend, his name is Richard," she said during an exclusive telephone interview with AP.
"I think I am just finally excited to tell someone about this," Patrick laughed, sounding almost giddy as she said the two-time Nationwide champion's middle name is Lynn and he prefers she use his first name.
The couple waited until the end of Charlotte Motor Speedway's weeklong annual media tour to go public with their relationship, which started as a friendship as they raced each other the last two seasons in the Nationwide Series. Stenhouse became a mentor of sorts to the 30-year-old Patrick, who left IndyCar after the 2011 season to make the full-time switch to NASCAR.
"We are dating, and I know there's been a bit of a runaround this week at the media days and poor Ricky got grilled (with questions)," she said. "It was out of respect to NASCAR, to all the manufacturers, the new cars, the teams, the sponsors, just to allow the news of the day to be about racing and not let anything interfere with that. So, it's Friday now, so that's why we waited until the end of the week to be up front about each other."
Stenhouse confirmed the relationship.
"Yes we are dating," he said. "I don't normally say too much about my private life, always been focused on the track. I didn't want to confirm at media day so that we could keep the focus on the season, the Gen-6 (car), my sponsors and team. That's what it's all about for me."
Patrick remains one of the most recognizable drivers in auto racing, even if wins have been hard to come by. There was speculation that her appeal with advertisers had waned, but sponsor Go Daddy said Patrick will again appear in the website domain provider's commercials during the Super Bowl next month.
Patrick announced in November she and husband Paul Hospenthal were divorcing after seven years, and said in the Jan. 3 filing that her marriage to the 47-year-old Hospenthal was "irretrievably broken."
Speculation immediately shifted toward her relationship with the 25-year-old Stenhouse, who has never been married. While her policy has always been not to talk about her personal life, Patrick said she made an exception this time to end the gossip and so the two could be open about their relationship.
"I think that moving forward into the year, it's a matter of do you say anything at all, or do you just carry on?" she said. "As opposed to speculation and people making up their own stories or talking amongst themselves or us feeling uncomfortable walking into each other's (motorhomes) moving forward, or around our teams or anything, it's just easier to be up front and get it out of the way then to have any kind of awkward speculation."

Dinosaurs: A Global View by Sylvia J Czerkas and Stephen A Czerkas, Dragon's World, pp 247, 25 Pounds.
It is tooth sucking time when another 'dinosaur' book comes for review. For a start, is the new book really better than the hordes of competitors? And is it from one of those publishers who plonk the magic nine-letter word on the cover regardless of content?
First the good news about Dinosaurs: A Global View. The three main illustrators are Douglas Henderson, Mark Hallett and John Sibbick, well known for their work, notably the recent exhibition Dinosaurs Past and Present organised by Sylvia Czerkas (and the associated book). There are photographs of Stephen Czerkas's superb models, and a selection of plain skeletal drawings.
The book is, broadly speaking, a look at various interesting aspects of dinosaur ancestry and diversity through time. As a result, almost a third is not about dinosaurs as ...

The X Factor
Simon Cowell: The X Factor, American Idol, and The Voice Winners Should Compete
Looks like Simon Cowell's agitating for a fight! The music magnate, ever possessing a keen eye on his competitors, suggested that a "super final" — also known as a sing-off — take place among the winners of his show The X Factor, his ex show American Idol, and The Voice. Though Cowell tweeted that the idea was "[j]ust a thought[,]" we can hear the deadly seriousness. (Can't you hear those ratings rising? Oh, yes.)
Yeah, sure, he hasn't completely gotten his house in order, but we trust that what Cowell wants... he can get. So what do you think? Would YOU watch a sing-off between winners of these three mega music shows? How about just a hair-off between Ryan Seacrest, Carson Daley, and Steve Jones?

Exclusive! Peta Murgatroyd Reveals Ron Artest's Biggest Weakness on the Dance Floor
He may look like the kind of guy you don't want to piss off, but according to Dancing With the Stars pro dancer, Peta Murgatroyd, her partner Ron Artest has a heart of gold.
"He's so not frightening, and he's totally not what people have perceived him to be," she told Wetpaint Entertainment exclusively on Fashion's Night Out in Westfield, Century City. "He's like a gentle giant He's this big 6'7" guy and he's got the softest voice, and he gives the biggest, warmest hugs every day and he's just a lovely guy."
In fact, if Peta has any criticism for her dance partner it's that he's a tad too non-aggressive at the moment. "He struggles to grab me and throw me because he doesn't want to hurt me," she says. "He's really lovely like that. I have to tell him to man-handle me a bit more."
But Peta's not worried about her partner's dancing skills. "He's getting there," she tells us. "He's got rhythm. And he can shake his booty, so we're going to use his character to the best of our ability."
What does have her slightly concerned is the fallout over the casting of Chaz Bono.
"It's totally out of order," she says, defending the transgender activist. "I've heard ridiculous things on the internet like, moms won't let their children watch the show anymore, and it boggles me. It's ridiculous. And it shouldn't matter! I think everyone needs to get over it and move on."

Hue and cry
KC expects Tom Brady and the Pats to put Hue Jackson's rejuvenated Raiders in their place.
Last Updated: 30/09/11 4:48pm
Looking at what games Week Three will throw up, you have to expect this to be the highest scoring of the lot.
Both the Patriots and the Raiders have no problem putting plenty of points on the board, but neither can stop anything or anybody right now.
And don't even think that if one side is way ahead, it's done and dusted either. New England led Buffalo by 21 and lost, Oakland had them by 18 and lost, so a lead don't mean a thing here. This is going to go right down to the final buzzer.
New England are a classic team of two halves. Tom Brady and that juggernaut are rolling everybody over as usual but on the other side of the football, they have some problems.
A lot of people thought they had started to turn it round last season with that young, athletic backfield, who are capable of making some big plays on their day. But they let Brandon Meriweather go and I wonder if they are missing an old head in that unit.
It's all very well having a great secondary but the trouble with the Pats is they have no-one up front to put heat on a quarterback, never mind go and get the sack. That line will just not produce any penetration, which will give Jason Campbell all the time he needs in the pocket.
The problem with that though is the Raiders passing game is their weakness. Denarious Moore is their only recongised receiver who has caught for more than 100 yards which tells you its own story, but the question for Hue Jackson this week is does he change the focus, because he knows Campbell will have time to pick a pass.
Personally, I think you gotta stay with who you are. Some teams might change but Oakland's running game has brought them all their success this season, so they gotta stick with it.
That means Darren McFadden seeing lots of the football and doing his thing. McFadden is another one of those all-round backs who can also catch the ball pretty well, but I think if they can get his running going early, he can inflict some damage on the Pats.
And that Oakland offense is not as one-dimensional as it sounds. In fact, I am looking forward to seeing them live because under Jackson, they have such a varied approach, such a multiple of plays, you never know what they are going to come up with. We might be in for double, triple and even quadruple reverses, we might even see them send Campbell out from quarterback to catch a pass.
They should be able to put points on New England, it's just whether they can stop Brady and Wes Welker.
Mind you, that's the big question for Oakland every week, no matter who they are up against. In the past two games they have leaked over 700 yards to Ryan Fitzpatrick (Buffalo) and Mark Sanchez (New York Giants), so you gotta wonder what the Hell the NFL's top quarterback is going to do!
Now if McFadden was on the other side, the Patriots would be on their way to the Super Bowl already, but again, there is no running game to speak of. It's not so much that BenJarvus Green-Ellis and Danny Woodhead are not talented enough, it's just they don't get the football handed to them.
Part of that is because of Brady, Welker, Deion Branch and the tight ends Ron Gronkowski and Aaron Hernandez, but most of it is down to that no-huddle offense.
They try to let the defense run past the line of scrimmage so they tire quicker and handing the ball off to a back just doesn't let them do that. The Raiders are as aggressive as they are inconsistent on defense, so don't expect New England to change a thing this week!
Cadle's Call
We should be in for plenty of points whoever comes out on top, but I just think that it's hard to look past the Patriots in what might well turn into a battle of the offenses. You could say that whichever side finds some sort of form on defense will take this, but I can't see that happening. It is going to be points, points, points and if the Raiders are leaking yards through the air against decent quarterbacks, what's gonna happen when Brady's arm gets going? I am going for the Pats - and it could go to the wire.
The Cadle Guy
Jason Campbell (Oakland) - I want to see how Jason looks after the football. He will get time in the pocket and if he can take care of the football and not throw it away, the Raiders might have a chance. It's no coincidence that when he doesn't throw interceptions or loose passes, they play winning football. He has McFadden to hand off to, but if he is going to make an impact on Sunday, he needs to pick his passes - and pick them well.

DeJesus' 2 HR's power A's past Indians 3-1
The only serious threat the Indians mounted off Cahill came in the third, when Grady Sizemore led off the inning with a double. Carlos Santana walked with two outs before Hafner's single, and Cahill got Orlando Cabrera to ground out and end the threat.
"Well pitched ballgame by both sides," Indians manager Manny Acta said. "I thought Tomlin was fantastic - just attacked the strike zone, threw an unbelievable amount of strikes. He deserved better but they pitched very well, too."
NOTES: A's LHP Dallas Braden had his troublesome throwing shoulder examined for the second time by renowned orthopedist Dr. Lewis Yocum in Los Angeles. Geren said after the game he didn't know the results of the examine but that Braden was going to seek an opinion from another doctor. ... Cahill also threw 116 pitches on Sept. 4 in a 3-1 win over the Angels last season. ... A's All-Star closer Andrew Bailey faced hitters before the game, throwing about 25 pitches - only fastballs - at full velocity. Bailey hasn't pitched this season because of a strained right forearm. The team will decide Thursday what the next step is for Bailey. ... Indians RHP Carlos Carrasco threw a light bullpen session back in Cleveland. He will pitch about 4-5 innings for Double-A Akron on Friday, Acta said. ... Oakland C Kurt Suzuki was given the night off with a day game Thursday.

Hartford — Amazon will invest $50 million over two years to create a "customer fulfillment center" and 300 jobs in Connecticut, said Gov. Dannel P. Malloy on Monday. Amazon has also agreed to collect a sales tax for Connecticut now that it will have a physical presence in the state.
Amazon estimated it would collect $15 million in sales taxes annually once it starts collecting on Nov. 1, Malloy said.
"It's clear that it (Connecticut) is not a terrible state to do business in," Malloy said. "As I said, this is the third very large-scale customer fulfillment center to be announced in a relatively short period of time here in the state of Connecticut."
Amazon, which is looking for a location for the center, will start collecting sales tax just in time for the online holiday shopping season. The company will also push for federal legislation as it ends up collecting a sales tax for more states, which raises the price of online items.
Editor's note: This sentence corrects an earlier version. Malloy said he has already applied the projected revenue to his budget proposal, which he will roll out on Wednesday. In response to questions about whether there would be state assistance Malloy said there are no strings attached. If Amazon were to plan significant expansions, "we would have discussions," he said.
A professor at the University of Connecticut School of Law in Hartford, Richard D. Pomp, said, "It's a big deal for the dishonest taxpayers in Connecticut because we have always owed the sales tax on goods purchased from Amazon."
Under current law, out-of-state retailers are not required to collect a sales tax for Connecticut. It is up to consumers to report their out-of-state purchases when they file their taxes.
This move by Amazon takes the responsibility of paying the sales or use tax away from the consumer, Malloy said.
"I think there are probably fewer people that are worried about the sales tax," Pomp said. "People today shop for the convenience."
The new business model for Amazon has to do with buying something today and getting it tomorrow, he said. Having more customer fulfillment centers or warehouses allows Amazon to compete against supermarkets and local stores, Pomp said.
Pomp also said he thought Amazon would become a champion for a federal law on sales tax collection now that it will be collecting sales tax while other online retailers without a physical presence are not.
The sales tax law passed in 2011 required out-of-state online retailers who sell more than $2,000 worth of goods a year through affiliate companies located in Connecticut to collect a sales tax. Affiliate companies, for example, would be companies that direct web users to Amazon's website and receive a commission once a web user purchases something from Amazon.
When the law passed Amazon and other companies broke ties with affiliates in order to not collect the tax.
Now that they have agreed to collect a sales tax, "they are willing to do business with affiliates in the state of Connecticut again," Malloy said.
In an email, the vice president of global public policy for Amazon, Paul Misener, said the company "look(s) forward to working with Gov. Malloy toward passage of the legislation now being considered by Congress that would finally resolve the sales tax issue, level the playing field for all retailers, protect states' rights and allow states to collect the revenue owed."
The problem is that it is not politically attractive to enforce sales tax collection at the federal level, Pomp said. Politicians will appear to be taking away people's rights to buy items online sales tax-free, even though online purchases were never meant to be sales tax-free, he said. Congress would take a lot of heat to pass federal legislations and then the revenues from the sales tax would go to states, Pomp said.
Nationally about $11.3 billion in use tax revenues are lost from electronic business-to-business and business-to-customer transactions, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. In Connecticut about $63 million is lost.
Amazon has agreed to collect sales tax on items shipped to Arizona, California, Kansas, Kentucky, New York, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Texas and Washington, according to its website. Amazon recently agreed to collect a sales tax on items shipped to Massachusetts, Malloy said.
Malloy said he expects brick and mortar retailers to push again for out-of-state retailers to collect a sales tax.
"I think pressure that traditional retailers are under is rising and it's starting to be seen as an issue of fairness," he said.

Pondering Another Go After Losing Election 2nd Time
The second time didn't do it for Cheryl Hancock. The Holmen democrat was turned away again in her bid to unseat Mike Huebsch in the 94th assembly race. Could third time be the charm? Hancock says it's too early to make the call about another run. But she knows it may take that many times to gain support from people in the district. Hancock recalls a conversation with former assembly state rep, Virgil Roberts who reminded her it took Huebsch three times to beat him. Hancock says people were more receptive to her during campaiging door-to-door this time around than when she lost to to Huebsch in the last election.

Meet two of GEICO's future business leaders
By Hope Buehler on October 16, 2013 at 1:56 PM
Posted in: Claims, Working at GEICO
In this article, we'll introduce you to two of our associates to give you an inside look at what it's like being involved in our leadership programs. Let's meet Jonathan and Sean, who work full time in our Fredericksburg, Va., office.
Jonathan D., Management Development Program – Claims Track
GEICO associate since 2012
Jonathan graduated from the University of Florida with a major in marketing and minor in entrepreneurship. Not only did he work hard in the classroom, but he also played running back for the University of Florida football team. Following his academic career, he was looking to establish a long-lasting career. GEICO's Management Development Program presented an opportunity to join a growing company in a stable industry.
Tell us about your experience with the Management Development Program.
The Management Development Program has far exceeded my expectations on all fronts. Since I've joined the program, everyone is eager to share their knowledge about our business operation. Each associate seems to have a true desire for me to succeed.
I've been especially impressed with our senior management, and the amount of time they spend developing each leader in the program. With great expectations for each MDP candidate, they've gone above and beyond to ensure we are equipped with the tools we need to be successful business leaders.
What's the best piece of career advice you have received?
Learn more about people than you do your product or your service, and you will become unusually successful. The more you know about people, the better you become at communicating and building relationships. Everyone has a story, and learning about others will build a team atmosphere that produces successful results.
What is your favorite GEICO commercial?
The "GEICO Spelling Bee Commercial" (featuring Old MacDonald). The "Dagnabit" gets me every time!
Sean L., Management Development Program – Sales Track
GEICO associate since 2012
Prior to beginning his career at GEICO, Sean graduated from Radford University with a double major in management and psychology. Today, he's in our Management Development Program in Fredericksburg.
Tell us about your experience with the Management Development Program.
The Management Development Program provides you an opportunity to understand from the ground up, the area you will one day work in. From agent to supervisor, you are taking part in projects that help you network and increase your visibility within the company.
What do you like most about GEICO?
The atmosphere in the office, people are laughing and smiling. Even when the work gets tough, the attitude is constantly positive.
What is your favorite GEICO moment?
Coordinating the "millionth policy celebration" here in Fredericksburg was a great opportunity. Seeing everyone smile when the millionth policy celebration took place was, by far, my favorite GEICO moment.
The Management Development Program is made up of bright, driven graduates. This fast-track management training program will provide you with opportunities to learn all about our business, gain hands-on experience, receive mentoring, interact with management and prepare to one day lead a team and much more!

I am a retiree, had experience in the INSURANCE business. needed a job for some extra income to help with the cost of living.
I am a client with GEICO' s Auto Insurance. Policy #4295-90-86-04
To whom this may concern,
Looking forward to a career of exciting new beginnings. I'm honest, reliable, focuses on task at hand, get jobs done in a timely manner, willing to learn, take direction well. Adding a positive attitude with respect to the benefit of the company.
GEICO is an excellent insurance company; however, in California they are ONLY hiring young, college graduates; and largely ignoring seasoned, well trained individuals with a diversity of experience. This is extremely perplexing to me. If a company constantly proclaims that it seeks to hire the most qualified individual regardless of gender, ethnicity, or age; why does GEICO continually and consistently demonstrate a hiring preference for college graduates? Hmmmmmm. It appears GEICO is not honestly and completely representing its company values.
I wish and hope the best for every seeking employment and thank-you for posting a career change for one needed including me … how would i send a resume for consideration in employment. Thank-you Also Warren Buffet for Prez
I am a 220 licence property & casualty and I worked for an Allstate agent for 8 years , I know Geico is the must competitive company in Miami Dade county because my auto policy is with Geico , and I would like to be a Geico sales representative .
Best regards
Alberto Morffi
I KNOW GEICO IS THE BEST INSURANCE COMPANY it got big
Hi Everyone – Our job search function was not working properly late last week. We are up and running again. Please visit us at http://www.geico.jobs to view current openings and to apply. Thank you!
The post of Hilld (18 OCT, above) has me concerned, if true.
I, for example, have 25 years of intelligence analysis experience around the globe and have held myriad leadership positions in places to include the Pentagon, Afghanistan, and a 7,000+ person company. I have an MBA (Marketing); BA (Russian); and, will shortly receive my Project Management Professional (PMP) certification. To Hilld's point, if GEICO would not consider me for anything but an entry-level position then I would question the company's committment to excellence. GEICO, prove me wrong at: firstname.lastname@example.com

CSG today confirmed it had completed the $227.5 million sale of its technology solutions division to NEC.
The Australian IT integrator and print services specialist said it would reveal details of its future company structure late next month when it delivers its full year results.
It expects it will go into debt to support the "future growth of the company".
The possibility of a CSG acquisition first emerged in September last year, with speculation focused on the fate of the company's successful print services division.
NEC's offer instead for CSG's IT division was confirmed in late May.
NEC Australia managing director Alan Hyde told CRN at the time the acquisition meant NEC would be able to offer customers "a true end-to-end offering".
He said the deal was a key strategic step for the company and would support its goal of becoming one of Australia's top five ICT companies within the next five years.
"We will now compete for even bigger projects and open doors into new markets," Hyde said.
The CSG business will be brought in as a newly-branded, independent business unit of NEC Australia with senior executives reporting directly to Hyde. It will be named NEC IT Solutions.
CSG in late May revealed to the market it would streamline its print services business across A/NZ, cutting 30 jobs from the 600-strong workforce as well as $13 million in costs this year, and a further $4 million in 2013.
CSG denied the restructure was a move to make the print division more attractive to potential buyers.
"This is a really exciting time. It's a real opportunity to restructure print services Australia and New Zealand to deliver annualised cost savings and return really significant value," a CSG spokesperson told CRN. "Our vision is to become a leading print provider."

TIGER II Tug-o-War
The following is a guest post from Anstress Farwell of New Haven, CT. Farwell is the President of the New Haven Urban Design League and has been involved with plans to revive downtown New Haven by removing the Oak Street Connector. Read below for more:
New Haven is a powerhouse of dreamers and doers in the planning world. Local groups have advocated since 2004 for the removal of the Oak Street Connector, a highway stub that lays waste to 10 acres of downtown land and divides the core of the city. In 2008, CNU President John Norquist helped boost the effort when he visited New Haven to speak about the benefits of urban highway removal and met with city officials and community stakeholders. So when the 30% engineering plans presented recently by the City fell short of community expectations, the response was vehement, yet constructive. An article posted on the plans generated a mountain of comments on how to improve the plan and live up to the TIGER II mandate for transportation innovation and excellence in planning:
Bravo! Bike Lane Enters Stage Right: http://www.newhavenindependent.org/index.php/archives/entry/downtown_crossing_design_goe/
Community groups and stakeholders have joined to establish the Route 34 Coalition, which plans to sponsor a design workshop, and is continuing to meet with public officials to offer alternate plans. The Coalition has set up a Google Group as a means of sharing information and coordinating advocacy efforts. Many CNU members toured the Downtown Crossing area this spring when New Haven hosted the CNU New England conference. CNU members who wish to stay involved or get involved can join the Route 34 Google Group at:
The Route 34 Coalition is intended to be a loose network of community members and organizations interested in working toward a successful Route 34 Redevelopment. Thoughts, insight and advice from CNU members is very welcome.
