Eugene Pate's American Legion season ends
Newburgh, Princeton play for sectional title today
EVANSVILLE - Eugene Pate's American Legion baseball season came to an end Saturday, while Newburgh and Princeton both qualified for the regional tournament by reaching the sectional championship.
Newburgh eliminated Pate by taking an 8-3 win in the early game at Central High School's baseball field.
However, the championship round of the three-team sectional between Princeton and Newburgh was suspended in the top of the second inning with Newburgh leading 2-0. The game will resume today at 1 p.m. CDT. If Newburgh wins, it will force another game to be played today because Princeton (18-11) is unbeaten in the tournament. Princeton just needs to win once to claim the sectional title and secure a top seed in the regional.
Pate (26-15) tied Newburgh (27-7) at 2-2 with single runs in the fifth and sixth innings. However, Newburgh pushed four runs across in the sixth to take control. LaWan Rollins led off with a triple and he, Bryson Jenkins, Sam Griggs and Jeff Wetzler scored the decisive runs.
Jenkins, Wetzler and Nick Coudret each singled and drove in runs. Newburgh's offensive outburst forced Pate starting pitcher Curran Davis out of the game with Corey Mason and then John Mentzel coming on in relief.
"Curran is good," Newburgh Manager Buddy Swift said, "He's real good. We just had our backs to the wall. You know it was almost a benefit having Friday off. I mean we obviously wanted to win on Thursday, but ..."
Newburgh tallied 10 hits in Davis' 5-plus innings. He took the loss giving up six runs that were all earned.
Kennan Barnett earned the win with six innings of work. He scattered eight hits and surrendered two runs
With one out in the seventh, Pate loaded the bases after Ryan Moore, Grant Buckley and Davis walked. A.J. Bruner scorched a line drive, but Newburgh short stop Brandon Kelley leaped, stretched and snagged the shot. He flipped it to second base for the third out, which ended the Pate threat.
"I don't know if he should be playing basketball or baseball," Swift said. "I've never seen him jump so high. It was a fantastic play and he played him just right. I didn't know, I thought he might have been so fired up that he'd throw it away."
Newburgh added a pair of runs in the seventh on Griggs' RBI bunt-double and Coudret's sacrifice fly.
Pate's Cory Weatherholt led off the eighth with a solo homer to left field, but Newburgh relievers Addison Smith and Kelley didn't allow another hit afterward.
"Pitching and defense is what I said it would take coming in and those were our problems Thursday night," Swift said. "It's just too bad to see Pate eliminated. I know they would be as capable of us or Princeton to compete for a regional."
Pate Manager Jeremy Jones consoled his team after the loss.
"We had a lack of leadership at the beginning of the year," Jones said. "We had a long day at Floyds Knobs and we were able to turn it around after a 1-4 start. Since then we've had guys stand up and be good leaders and better people, hopefully."
Rockport beat Boonville 10-7 to win a sectional championship at Boonville Saturday and earned a No. 1 seed the regional at Rockport later this week.

Vista does not turn off computer
Hi there,
I have a desktop machine, built from components and I wonder, whether my issue is related to the nVidia card or driver.
Whenever I shut down the machine, it does not turn off, instead it reboots... I also have Linux on the same machine, Linux actually does turn off the machine, this tells me the issue is Vista related.
When I googled, some other folks had the same problem and could boil it down to driver issues, but they had ATi stuff.
What do you think, can that turn off issue be related to my nVidia card?
Here some data about my system:
K7S5A Pro board, latest Bios, ACPI enabled
AMD Athlon XP 2200+
GForce 6200 from Asus, AGP4x
Vista Home Premium SP2 32Bit
Nvidia driver 32Bit latest version, 186.18
Re: Vista does not turn off computer
Had this issue recently with one of my machines. Nothing a format couldn't fix. Just one of those things that happens to a Vista install after awhile.
Re: Vista does not turn off computer
Does it completely reboot or go black then bring up the logon screen after a short time?
If this is what happens, something is keeping it awake. Media sharing is the usual suspect here.
Re: Vista does not turn off computer
pinguin74, in eventviewer, microsoft, windows, Diagnostics-Performance, look for entries like this.
This is most of the time caused when some app/driver/service holds onto a part of registry and doesn't want to let go.
XP was suffering heavily from this, then MS released User Profile Hive Cleanup Service.
Vista/Win7 has that service by default it is named "User Profile Service" make sure it runs.
Re: Vista does not turn off computer
Windows 7 will be going on every machine I have as soon as it RTMs. Can't f'n wait!
Re: Vista does not turn off computer
By your logic, since I've never had this problem on any machine ever, the problem must not exist and this thread is a lie.
Re: Vista does not turn off computer
Re: Vista does not turn off computer
Your theory and your logic is sound nekro, this problem happened to me with xp on more than one machine and have had the same problem with some of my users machine.
Just ignore the troll, they tend to shrivell up and die when starved.
You might try updating your BIOS, has worked for me.
Re: Vista does not turn off computer
Re: Vista does not turn off computer
Mine is kept on automatic, never had vista 64 bit, or the vista 32 bit on my wifes pc, hang up on shut down.
Re: Vista does not turn off computer
well english name is User Profile Service. and it can be found in Computer Managemet under services. Windows name is ProfSvc, that name is same for all languges.
This service is responsible for User Hive(registry) cleanup, all NT based windows suffer from this. Service was added to 2000, 2003, XP with a patch, service is native in Vista and Win7. Some users disable needed services by mistake and or services sometimes might stop working by themself (less likelly)

When it asked,I put in 0000 but it would not connect.
I thought it might be my Sena unit, so I tried to get the phone and GPS to mate up with my wife's Sena that worked with her phone and it still would not work.
Any ideas?
May be better if we can help you over the phone, but...
For starters - delete all pairings in the BlackBerry and the Zumo. Reset your Sena to factory default.
Then pair the Zumo to the Sena - from the screen of the Zumo. See that it functions correctly. Turn-by-turn directions, and if it's a Zumo 660/665 listen to an MP3.
If you're good there, put the Sena in pairing mode, then from the BlackBerry search for Bluetooth devices, find the Sena headset, pair it. Then enter the Sena pairing preferences in the BlackBerry and set the connection to 'trusted'.
Then pair the two Sena headsets together.
See how that goes, and if it doesn't fly, give us a call and we'll agonize over it with you.

Arizona Cardinals
Bill Polian: Cardinals won't find QB in free agency
It's no secret that the Arizona Cardinals have holes to fill on the offensive side of the ball.
The Cardinals started four different quarterbacks, gave up 58 sacks and were ranked last in the NFL in total rushing yards in 2012.
ESPN Insider and ex-NFL general manager Bill Polian pointed out obvious needs for Bruce Arians' team, but says one position may be irreparable in the open market.
Key need: QB
Others: OG/OT/RB/TE
Quarterback is by far the most pressing need, but as with other teams on this list that lack a signal-caller, it doesn't look like it can be filled through free agency. Since that's the case, offensive line is the next area to explore on the free-agent market. The Cardinals gave up a league-high 58 sacks in 2012.
Polian's theory dismantles any speculation of the Cardinals reaching for San Francisco's Alex Smith, the Colts' Drew Stanton or even Tim Tebow, thus leaving Arizona with the NFL Draft, or what they've got in the bag.

Here's a run down of how the TNA weekend festivities went in San Antonio:
From someone who has purchased travel packages for the last two Wrestlemanias WWE has put out, it is safe to say that TNA has something special when it comes to their fan interaction events. In fact, when it comes to meeting greeting and SOCIALIZING with wrestlers, WWE can't even hold a candle to what TNA offer. For $930, i was:
- put up in the same hotel that TNA were staying at for 3 nights: This meant that interacting with TNA talent was hard to avoid. To say that there was many nights spent drinking with the likes of Christopher Daniels and Austin Aries was an understatement. Furthermore, TNA President Dixie Carter joined us after TNA LockDown and spent almost an hour meeting fans and taking pictures with her husband. Would you ever see Vince McMahon go to that distance to meet with his fan base?
- Given a casual reception and a breakfast with TNA superstars: For the most part, all TNA talent were easy to talk to and loved chatting and taking photos with fans. They also sat down and ATE with us, as buffet dinner and breakfasts were offered. Bad Influence, however, "stole the show" at the reception, cracking jokes about how "Sting, Hogan and Hardy wont be joining us tonight...so we are the best you've got" and stayed in character for the whole event. Definite entertainment all round
- Given tickets to "TNA FanFest": The lines were nowhere near as big as WWE Fan Axxcess, which made it easy to see everyone that was available for each autograph signing. Crowds for the most part consisted of an older MIXED demo of males/Females (18-25). That is, it certainly felt like an old school WCW crowd from the 90s. Not too many kids in sight. JB and SoCal Val hosted the event and did a great job making people feel important while we waited for our favorites via interviews and contests. Bully Ray, Storm and Aries were the biggest stars of Session 1, while Hardy, Angle and Chavo/Hernandez (Surprise,Surprise) were the popular wrestlers of Session 2. It needs to be said that Angle came off very dissonant and distant (almost as if he was on something heavy) which was a shame. Other disappointments included the absence of Roode (explained by previous F4W Posts) and Sting (who had appeared at previous fan events). Each of us were given 2 autographs plus a photo op assisted by staff (which craps all over WWEs 1 autograph deal with NO photo assistance). The "Main Event" was a chance to meet Hulk Hogan as well as Brooke Hogan. The wait for this one was long (close to 3hrs). However, Hogan insisted on staying until every single person got their time with the Hulkster. He was gracious and engaging to the very end. He even cracked a promo for a fan on the fan's Iphone which got everyone going.
- invited to a dinner and a chance to be on a live version of "TNA Spin Cycle": After a fine buffet dinner, JB hosted the tapings of 4 "TNA Spin Cycle" episodes. Highlights included Jeff Hardy, the TNA World Champion, painting a picture for the new "Jeff Hardy Gallery", JB leading in a big cheer for an unsuspecting Jessie Sorenson, Taren Tyrell defeating fellow TNA stars in a HULA HOOP CONTEST and fans buying Tyrel margaritas to get her "ready" for the contest. The atmosphere was great and JB was a tremendous host. A great, interactive night spent by all.
- Access to a personal suite for TNA LockDown: In terms of view, the suite was a perfect birds-eye perspective for the PPV. Everything was very visible and not too far away. In terms of facilities provided, TNA out did themselves with burgers, hot dogs, chicken strips and choc brownies on hand in our lounge area. In terms of fan interaction and FEELING the PPV, it was ok. If your a fan of being amongst the action and the feel of a live crowd, aim to buy separate tickets closer to the ring. This time around, the suite felt detached from the action in the ring at times.
Compared to what WWE offers, TNA offers something much more affordable and much more hands-on as it relates to its fans. I definitely leave San Antonio feeling like i was part of a community, not just a fan attending a wrestling show. Great fan interaction combined with an affordable price. When it comes to an important event, TNA takes care of its fans.

Memphis judge rules discovery of victim's body is admissible
In a somewhat unusual request, a man charged with shooting his wife to death last year in their Hickory Hill home wanted the judge to suppress all crime-scene evidence, including the body itself.
A defense lawyer for John Simmons argued that police entered the home without a warrant, circumventing the law by allowing a family friend to break in, which resulted in the discovery of Brendia Suggs Simmons' body.
"It is the defense position that there was no legal discovery of a body in this case," defense attorney Mark Mesler said, adding that police also had no probable cause to enter the house. "So everything discovered inside the house and thereafter is 'fruit of the poisonous tree.'"
On Monday, however, a judge ruled against him.
"This court finds that even though the police failed to prevent Morris Parker (the family friend) from entering the house, the entry was not the produce of 'state action,'" Criminal Court Judge Chris Craft said in a nine-page opinion. "This court also finds that it is not necessary to determine whether or not the search was the product of state action, because it was a permissible warrantless search performed under exigent circumstances."
"Exigent circumstances," Craft added, may include hot-pursuit, preventing an escape or destruction of evidence, rendering emergency aid or protecting a person from imminent injury.
No trial date has been set.
On July 19 last summer John Simmons told his mother that he had killed his estranged wife, but she and other Simmons family members began calling other relatives and church members — rather than calling police — because they didn't immediately believe him.
His sister told the court last month that Simmons often lies.
As the hours passed that evening with no word from Brendia Simmons, worried relatives on her side of the family gathered at the couple's home at 6390 Hunters Place Drive in Hickory Hill and called police.
Brendia Simmons had moved to a motel several months earlier because of marital problems, but her husband had said that evening he killed her and then "left her in a ditch, then brought her back to the house."
Police allowed Parker, a family friend, to break in the house and then followed him inside, they said, to protect him in case there were "perpetrators" inside or weapons still on the scene.
When they discovered the body, they went back out, started a crime scene and obtained a warrant.
Simmons was arrested about two hours later at a fried chicken restaurant.
Brendia Suggs Simmons, 47, an IRS employee, was the mother of nine children whose ages range from 23 to 29.
Although they had been married some 14 years, John Simmons was not the father of any of them. He had two children by a prior marriage.

press release
25 March 2014: Conakry/Dakar: With a confirmed outbreak of the highly contagious Ebola virus in Guinea, the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) has today deployed a Field Assessment Coordination Team (FACT) to the west African country to assist in the response.
"This team includes an infectious disease specialist from the French Red Cross Society, as well as a psychosocial support delegate. Together they will assess the situation on the ground and help inform a comprehensive response plan," said Dr Adinoyi Ben Adeiza, IFRC health coordinator in Africa. "It is imperative that we work quickly with our partners to ensure this virus does not spread any further."
Volunteers with the Red Cross Society of Guinea are already involved in the collection and removal of dead bodies. A further 100 volunteers are being mobilized to work in the affected regions to step up emergency communication, contain rumours and raise awareness among communities on how to prevent the spread of the virus.
"We are dealing with a particularly virulent strain of the Ebola virus, where the fatality rate is upwards of 80 per cent," said Dr Facely Diawara, who oversees health operations at the Red Cross Society of Guinea. "We are training additional staff and volunteers and will deploy them once they are fully aware of how to protect themselves from contracting the disease. We will also ensure they have access to adequate protective equipment, such as gloves, masks and goggles."
On 21 March, the Government of Guinea declared an outbreak of Ebola in the areas of Guéckédou, Kissidougou and Macenta - the first documented outbreak in the country. To date there are six lab confirmed cases, 86 suspected cases and 60 fatalities, for a 69 per cent fatality rate. There are potential cases in neighbouring Sierra Leone and Liberia. Symptoms are very similar to measles and cholera, which are both currently problematic in Guinea, making it challenging to identify and confirm Ebola cases.
"With our team of volunteers across the country, the Red Cross can play a pivotal role in trying to stem the fear and stigma which can rise very quickly during such an outbreak," says Dr Facely. "Panic is our worst enemy. Communities need to be informed, and we can talk to them and alleviate fears of not containing the outbreak."
Ebola is highly infectious and can spread quickly through contact with infected persons or animals. There is no cure or vaccine, however, the virus can be prevented from spreading by ensuring those caring for infected persons are properly protected with gloves, masks and goggles. Symptoms include severe fever, extreme weakness, headaches, diarrhoea and vomiting. Internal and external bleeding can also occur.
The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is the world's largest volunteer-based humanitarian network, reaching 150 million people each year through its 189 member National Societies. Together, IFRC acts before, during and after disasters and health emergencies to meet the needs and improve the lives of vulnerable people. It does so with impartiality as to nationality, race, gender, religious beliefs, class and political opinions.

First came that big harvest dinner with a car-sized turkey set on your table, then the unforgettable night of too much candy corn, followed by the overwhelming 12 days of Christmas, chocolate hearts from your loved one and, just recently, a giant Easter bunny may have practically force-fed you some speckled candy eggs.
There was no use resisting these moments of indulgence as the colder weather kept you inside, but now it's time to get back in shape. Welcome to May, proclaimed back in 1983 to be National Physical Fitness Month.
Physical fitness is quite a broad term and can be interpreted as anything from carrying your kids around the house to participating in a triathlon.
It is whatever you have time for and whatever your fitness level may be at, just so long as your body is getting the activity it deserves.
How much physical activity should the average person be getting, then? According to the 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans, adults 18-64 years old should aim for two hours and 30 minutes each week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity.
By "moderate-intensity," this means you should be able to talk, but not carry a tune. Power walk around the park, go on a bike ride, or join a ballroom dance class and you will fill this time sufficiently.
This aerobic activity should also go hand-in-hand with muscle-strengthening workouts on at least two days out of the week, focusing on all the muscles of your body.
If this still seems like a lot of time, there is another option for getting the right amount of physical activity in a shorter time frame.
The 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans points out that just one hour and 15 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise per week will get your body where it needs to be, along with two days that include muscle-strengthening moves.
With this level of exercise, you should not be able to easily hold a conversation. So this time, if you're going to the park, try jogging. Going on a bike ride? Find a hill to ride up. And why not look into joining an energizing dance class to get your heart pumping while still having a great time?
Dancing of any sort can be extremely beneficial to your physical well-being and can also add a lot more fun to mundane activities such as cleaning the house -- a great option for the multitasker.
With this said, it is understandable that many of us are so busy that we can barely make time for our fitness. Still, there are solutions for even the most desperate of situations.
If you have an office job, try sitting on a stability ball as opposed to your desk chair to help with posture and balance. Lean back and do some mini-crunches while you're waiting for a page to load. Stretch your muscles.
Do butt clenches while sitting. Ride a bike to and from work. Take the stairs. The possibilities are practically endless; you just have to make your fitness one of your top priorities and seek out ways to make it work. For some, this requires a little more creativity.
In celebration of National Physical Fitness month, I invite you to discover your body's true potential by including a few hours of physical activity per week, however you can. If this is new for you, take it slow, but make goals to improve throughout the month.
Make it your goal to move your body this May, and reap the benefits of a happier, healthier lifestyle.

Healthcare entrepreneurs who have hit the intellectual property speed bump can relate to the appropriately named session, "Reducing Drag: New Approaches to IP Negotiation and Technology Licensing," at the Partnering for Cures conference earlier this week in New York City.
In a time when our world's escalating environmental and social woes are weighing heavy on my mind, it was an uplifting change of pace to sit down with Gifford Pinchot III. Beyond being a best-selling author and the legend credited with coining the term intrapreneurship, Gifford is co-founder of the Bainbridge Graduate Institute, an amazing school that has turned both education and entrepreneurship on its head by offering the first MBA in sustainable business.
Cities across the country are eager to build or strengthen their startup communities. They recognize that entrepreneurs thrive when they live in a supportive environment. And when entrepreneurs thrive, so do their local economies. It's a win-win.
Last week, we hosted Ice House Facilitator Training here at the Foundation. We had people come from across the country and the international community to be trained in how to facilitate an entrepreneurial mindset to members of their community. I had the chance to sit down with one of the facilitators, Rob Elwood, and learn about his reason for coming to this training, and how he sees it benefiting his community in Annapolis, Md.
Intellectual property is one of the toughest subjects for entrepreneurs to understand. From dealing with the tech transfer office to hiring an attorney to filing a provisional patent, IP is a common stumbling block for early-stage entrepreneurs.

Porcini Parmesan Breadsticks
|Dried porcini mushrooms
|1 Ounce (1 Cup)
|Active dry yeast
|1 Tablespoon (1 Package)
|1 Teaspoon
|Kosher salt
|1 1⁄2 Teaspoon
|Olive oil/Salad oil
|2 Tablespoon
|All purpose flour
|2 3⁄4 Cup (44 tbs)
|Grated parmesan cheese
|1⁄2 Cup (8 tbs), grated
|Egg yolk
|1 Large
1. In a blender or food processor, whirl dried mushrooms to a fine powder. Let powder settle before removing lid. Pour powder through a fine strainer into a small bowl; reserve any mushroom grinds remaining in strainer for other uses.
2. In a large bowl, combine yeast, sugar, and 1 cup warm (110°) water. Let stand until yeast is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Add porcini powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 1/2 cups flour, and 1/4 cup parmesan cheese. Beat with a heavy spoon or a mixer until dough is stretchy, I to 2 minutes.
3. To knead dough by hand, stir in 1 cup flour. Scrape dough onto a lightly floured board and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes; add flour as required to prevent sticking. To knead with a dough hook, mix in 1 cup flour. Beat until dough pulls from sides of bowl and no longer feels sticky, about 3 minutes; if required, beat in more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.
4. On a lightly floured board, pat dough into a 6- by 12-inch rectangle. Brush with about 1/2 teaspoon oil, lightly cover with plastic wrap, and let stand until puffy, about 45 minutes.
5. Oil 2 baking sheets (14 by 17 in.). With a sharp knife, cut dough lengthwise into 24 equal strips. Pick up a dough strip, holding both ends, and let strip stretch until it's as long as the baking sheet; lay strip on sheet. Repeat to shape remaining strips and space at least 1/2 inch apart on sheet.
6. In a small bowl, beat egg yolk to blend with 1 tablespoon water. Brush onto dough strips, sprinkle evenly with remaining parmesan cheese, then sprinkle with 1 to 2 teaspoons salt (most falls off).
7. Bake in a 350° oven until breadsticks are golden, 22 to 25 minutes (12 to 15 minutes in a convection oven); switch pan positions halfway through baking. With a wide spatula, transfer bread-sticks to a rack.

Use it, It could Save Your Life
The first beacon I've owned, and I love it, super simple to use, just so long as you practice with it, and you make sure the people you're with know how to use their equipment and their heads. Never used it outside of practice scenarios, but I have the peace of mind to know I could help someone if the shit hits the fan.

The Eightmile Fire near Cañon City that was sparked by lightning on Monday, and stayed small all week, blew up to 700 acres by Friday afternoon.
A pre-evacuation notice was issued for 16 residences in the Red Rocks subdivision around 9 p.m. Friday telling people to be ready to leave if necessary.
The Eightmile fire is burning on Bureau of Land Management property about 6 miles northeast of Cañon City.
"We've been on this fire since Monday," Jackie Parks, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Forest Service, said Friday during a news briefing. "The terrain and dead and down fuels have made it hard, for sure."
She did not provide a containment figure for the blaze, which has shut down Phantom Canyon Road between mile markers 4.5 and 12.
The Eightmile Fire was only half an acre in size as recently as Thursday but expanded to 100 acres by Friday morning before taking off to 700 acres by the afternoon.
Parks said the fire has been hard to reach from the ground because of the rough terrain, and maintaining firefighter safety has been the priority.
There are 24 firefighters assigned to the fire and four 20-person Hotshot crews have been ordered. BLM said late Friday that three helicopters, three single-engine tankers and two heavy air tankers had stopped flying for the night.
A Type II Incident Management Team will be in place Saturday at 6 a.m. to fight the fire.
Smoke from the Eightmile Fire was visible all the way from Pueblo and Colorado Springs, and is likely to impact low-lying areas.
In the meantime, a wildfire that ignited three miles west of Larkspur in the Pike National Forest on Thursday was reported to be fully contained as of Friday morning, according to the U.S. Forest Service.
The lightning-caused blaze, known as The Storm fire, started around 2:30 p.m. Thursday and never threatened homes.

5 Candidate Interview Reviews Back to all InterviewsSort: Popular Date Difficulty
- Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceEasy Interview
I applied online. The process took 6 days – interviewed at Hilton International (Orlando, FL) in November 2013.
The hotel is very flexible with interviews. I did not live in the state at the time, and they were happy to set up a Skype interview with me. Very friendly and professional.
Interview Questions
- None. They asked mostly basic interview questions. Answer Question
- Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceAverage Interview
I applied online. The process took 5 weeks – interviewed at Hilton International.
I initially applied online through the Hilton website and it took about a week before I got a call back to schedule an interview. My first interview was much shorter than anticipated and I was asked questions concerning my employment history and qualifications. About two weeks later I received a call back to schedule a second interview with a front office supervisor. My second interview consisted primarily of the interviewer and myself sharing stories and experiences within the hospitality industry. I was also asked questions relating to front desk duties. Finally I was called back for a third interview with the Director of Front Office. The interview asked questions concerning how I handle working under pressure, etc. I was given an offer at the end of the interview.

EXCELLENT Interview.
Ask about what experience i had to better the organization.

How would I help/assist people at the resort.

Interview Questions
- Why would I be a good candidate for the job 1 Answer
- Declined OfferNegative ExperienceEasy Interview
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks – interviewed at Hilton International (Bath, England (UK)) in March 2013.
I got the interview by seeing the vacancy on caterer.com and applying via the Hilton website. I received a call a week later and was invited to a one to one interview. The interviewer was a very nice bloke but came across as quite inexperienced when it comes to assessing candidates in the sense that he was just reading questions and having an informal chat about the job. He had loads of questions but skipped about half of them, easily. I tried to enquire about progression opportunities in order to get a higher salary but I did not get the feeling that there were many. The interviewer was the F&B supervisor and his wage was only £1 above minimum wage apparently, and it took him years to get to that position.
I was then invited to a trial shift behind the bar for a couple of hours. I was shown around and it was quite casual, I wasn't really being scrutinised, it was just a nice lady keeping an eye on me and telling me a bit about the drinks, how to pull pints, etc. They asked me to bring in my passport and NI number as well as two references and then they went quiet for a week. I then received an email from the company inviting me to an open interview day, which was obviously a mistake on their end as I've been for an interview already (!). I answered the email stating this and a day or so later I got a voice mail in which I was offered the job.
Overall, I got the feeling that they were quite disorganised and not very professional, specially for a company of this calibre.
Reasons for Declining
I could not afford to take a minimum wage job while currently being on £7 an hour. Also, there was no obvious way of progressing within the company to eventually make more money.
- Accepted OfferNeutral ExperienceAverage Interview
I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks – interviewed at Hilton International (Shanghai, Shanghai (China)) in August 2008.
it is a very international company. People from different countries, with different habbits, work together. I was interviewed by a singaporean. He asked me several questions about admin and secretarial services. I answered him based on my experience. After 2 weeks interview, I was offered a job. It is not very difficult to have a job in Hilton Worldwide.

MPs urge Indonesia to refuse Australian trafficker parole
Published on Feb 6, 2014 7:05 PM
JAKARTA (AFP) - Indonesian lawmakers on Thursday urged the government to refuse Australian drug trafficker Schapelle Corby parole a day before a decision is due, citing current poor ties between Jakarta and Canberra.
"We expressed deep regret about and objection to" the prospect of the inmate being released early, said lawmaker Taslim Chaniago, reading from a letter signed by eight MPs that was handed to Justice Minister Amir Syamsuddin.
However, Mr Syamsuddin insisted he would follow the letter of the law when deciding on Corby's case. He is due to announce his decision on Friday and speculation has been mounting that he will grant her early release.
Corby was sentenced to 20 years in jail in 2005 after being caught trying to smuggle 4.1 kilograms of marijuana into the resort island of Bali, although she has always maintained her innocence.

Alice: Otherlands

|Image gallery (17)
| Alice is fighting a larger evil in the world. One that affects not just her or the people that she cares about and nearby, you know, her family and friend, but also affects society at large.
Alice: Otherlands, formerly known as Alice in Otherland, is the upcoming animated sequel to Alice: Madness Returns. It is a series of short films developed by Spicy Horse to help bring closure to the Alice series, which was envisioned as a trilogy by American McGee. However, this does not mean that there will no future Alice installments. It was intended to be released around December 2014 on DVD and Blu-ray, but has been pushed back to sometime in 2015.[3]
It was originally going to be a video game, however, due to dealings with Electronic Arts, which owns the Alice property, regarding budgeting and licensing, it became an independent project on Kickstarter.[4]
Each short will be around four to ten minutes in length, however, this varies per short.
Plot Edit
Otherlands is set in near 1876. It focuses on a presumably 20 year-old Alice Liddell connecting with and entering the mentalities and minds of those around her, and revolves around her discovering the horrors of the human subconscious.
Episodes Edit
- Episode 1 - Richard Wagner[5]
Production Edit
- Main article: Alice: Otherlands production
The production started around May 2011 but was on-hold until March 2013. On August 5, 2013, the project was successfully funded. Voice acting funds for Susie Brann and Roger L. Jackson were acquired on August 17, 2013.
Originally, the project was intended to be released on December 2014, however, the project was still in the scoring phase by the time December had started and was set to resume after the holidays.

text: Get ready for some action. The only precedent to the wild wheeling-and-dealing that is about to unfold over the next four weeks came back in 1999, when the NBA resumed action after its first-ever lockout. At that time, Milwaukee had a solid core of young players, including Ray Allen and Glenn Robinson, so General Manager Bob Weinhauer didn't make any sweeping changes. The team's offseason moves consisted mainly of signing two guards in the twilight of their careers: Dell Curry and Vinny Del Negro. Curry was a grand pickup, if for no other reason than the expert tutelage he provided to a young Allen.

And a Happy Independence Day to you too, Nat!
Hope you had a wonderful 4th of July! Thank you for always sharing your passion with us… your pleasure it always heartwarming!
From Helsinki Birgit and I flew to Amsterdam and I stayed for a couple days at Birgit's home, which was awesome and we did so many fun things together- more about it in a different post. One fun thing was that one day we went to the Groninger Museum to see the Werkman Life & Work Exhibition.
Werkman was a printer and artist and a member of the artist dutch avantgarde group De Ploeg . He lived from 1882 – 1945 . "He developed a printmaking process he called "hot printing," a technique incorporating found materials that added repeated design elements directly onto the paper—all without the use of a printing press." (Alston Purvis, H.N. Werkman)
Birgit and I were so inspired by the colors and the prints- and ideas- we could hardly contain ourselves and our heads were spinning with ideas and the urge to go home and work on prints ourselves. We were just standing forever in front of each print trying to figure out how he did it. If you have the chance to see some of this work- go and see it – these photos do not do his work justice but I wanted to show them so you get a sense.
This was just amazing! I will share some of my H.N. Werkman inspired Mono prints soon. And I think … a class inspired by this is going to be in order too 😉
This post currently has 4 comments.
Wow, what an awesome trip you have had, Nat! Glad you could find some time to play amidst your hectic schedules! Love today's artwork….can't wait for the mono class!
Thank you Kathy the Class concept is in my head – now to bring it down 😉
Love this Artist. I always love seeing your posts because I learn a lot. Thanks for introducing us to this artist. So cool. I hope you can add on line class for mono print.
Happy 4th to you too Nat. These pictures – and all the others – are just soooo wonderful. I absolutely love seeing the world thru your eyes. What an amazing prints you have shown is in your pictures… but I just have to say… some of them remind me of your own personal artwork. Can't wait for you to get home and start painting your versions of some of the pictures you have taken on this trip Hugs. j

Product description
The Chinese: understanding a people and their culture through key words and language. "The Chinese Mind" pinpoints areas of China's traditional values and behaviors that play a significant role in the business and social relationships of the Chinese. It also identifies key areas of Chinese culture that have changed as a result of the adoption of a market-based economy and other elements of Western culture. It includes discussion topics and questions, along with an extensive selection of Chinese "code words" that explain the essence and role of key elements of the traditional culture that have survived into modern times. Covering everything from the importance of Confucius, the great Chinese philosopher, to the influence of foreign fast food and video games, this book provides a wide-ranging glimpse into the seemingly opaque Chinese mind. "The Chinese Mind" is an excellent overview of Chinese tradition, history, and culture that is perfect for the classroom, tourists or outsiders living or doing business in China. Some of the vital concepts explored here include: Yin and Yang, the search for balance in all thingsMianji, the importance of faceHong, looking at things holisticallyDe, the power of virtueGuo cui, the national essence of the ChineseZhong fu, the pursuit of insightBi, unity the Chinese way

Customer reviews
By James Hodson 22 Jan 2012
This book is great as an introduction to Chinese thinking. It's especially good as a STARTING point of topics for discussion with Chinese friends. I'm writing this review from a coffee shop in china, and many of the things he discusses are insightful and accurate, however there are a few drawbacks. Firstly the book is extremely American-centric, and often has the feel of a culture handbook for businessmen. Second, he seems to draw some biased conclusions from elements of chinas history (I'm not a Sinologist, but you can judge for yourself about Mao and his interest in womens rights). Thirdly, the "discussion topics" are usually insipid and frustratingly leading, although still worth reading (even if you don't discuss them). On the whole it's a concise and readable overview of the difference between essentially western thought (he annoyingly constantly says "American" thought) and Chinese thought, although my recommendation would be to use this as a list of juicy and interesting discussion points you can use when talking with ACTUAL Chinese people, and anyway, the latter is more fun!
