UGA has a record of great quarterbacks

Talk about it in The Main Board
In the conference's modern era (since 1992), Georgia has fielded Eric Zeier, Mike Bobo, Quincy Carter, David Greene, D.J. Shockley, and Matthew Stafford as the predominant starters. While there were moments when other quarterbacks received the starting nod, those six are the ones who led the Dawgs in the past 17 years.
While Georgia has not received recognition as a producer of great college quarterbacks, the record speaks for itself.
Bobo - Set several passing records at UGA, and is currently the Offensive Coordinator for the Bulldogs who is largely responsible for the development of Greene, Shockley, and Stafford.
Greene - Four-year starter for Georgia who finished his career with more wins than any quarterback in college football history with 42, and SEC career leader in yards gained with 11,270. He went on to play in the NFL.
Shockley - Following three years of being the number two quarterback behind Greene, Shockley passed for over 2,500 yards while leading the Bulldogs to an SEC Championship in 2005. He is currently with the Atlanta Falcons.
Stafford - After three seasons with the Bulldogs, the Detroit Lions choose Stafford as the first pick in the 2009 NFL draft and signed him to a $41.7 million guaranteed contract, which, should he stay with the Lions for the full six years of the deal, will earn him $78 million. We do not even have to talk about his college stats at this point.
In light of how well Georgia has done with their past five starting quarterbacks, it is only natural that the next quarterback receives such scrutiny.
To date, Cox has played in 13 games and started one for the Bulldogs. The one game he started, Ole Miss in 2006, was a Georgia victory. Though that is his one and only college start with a victory, he did the same thing at Independence High School in Charlotte where he had a perfect 31-0 record.
Just as the Bulldogs have had a great run of quality quarterbacks, Cox has been the understudy for a few good ones himself. In addition to his time under Shockley and Stafford at Georgia, he backed up former Florida quarterback Chris Leak at Independence.
"It was good to watch D.J. and Matthew, I learned a lot from both of them if it was something they did good or bad; I learned either way," Cox said. "I prefer to wait like I did because I did the same thing in high school playing behind Chris Leak. I think it is going to help me a lot to see how those guys played, how they approached everything on and off the field, and I draw off of their careers."
For his part, Cox says he is not getting wrapped up setting a standard for success.
"Everybody bases it on wins," he said when asked what would be a successful campaign in 2009, "but as long as we can look back and say that we fought as hard as we could in every game, never gave in, and gave everyone a handful that we played; that is a special season.
"Being at Georgia, success has been a part of what we have been doing for the past nine years, and it is not acceptable to have a 9-4 season. We are shooting for the stars, we want to win a championship as bad as anybody else does, and that is our expectation. We want to win the SEC, we want to compete and have a chance to play in the National Championship."
While the loss of Stafford is significant, the Georgia Bulldogs have proven time and again that they have plenty of capable players waiting in the wings. The college football world will find out soon enough if that trend continues in 2009.

Rad - I use it all the time.
Janky - I've used this one for about 10 years now. As a programmer these days, it is more relevant to my day to day operations than ever.
Howdy - I didn't start to use this until after I left Oklahoma for California. I don't know if I felt obligated to be the Oklahoman or what, but I basically use it to mean "How do you do?" which I assume is its origin.
Bummer - Used it a lot as a kid, and it's made a come back in the last year since I try to avoid saying 'that sucks' around customers.
No dice - I heard it on an episode of the Simpsons and have used it since. I get the impression that most people I use it around are unfamiliar with the phrase.
Baller - Last but not least, it's already at least a half decade old, and I say it from time to time, most likely inspired by Ryan Davis and Justin McElroy. QED, it's pretty out of date.

Ford Audio's Gary Ford says, "This is a broad, asymmetrical venue and in addition to the house delays, we usually fly side arrays of five XLCs to cover the audience areas adjacent to the stage. For [a recent REO Speedwagon show], the wide dispersion of the XLC and XLD combination made a stage-right array unnecessary."…Lenny Kravitz is out on tour with FOH engineer Laurie Quigley, using a Midas XL4 console and eight XTA 226s, which were processed through BSS Omnidrives.

Frank Ocean, Channel Orange
Frank Ocean's amazing mixtape, Nostalgia, Ultra, had Italian mag L'uomo Vogue crowning him the "best R&B lyricist since Prince," influenced established mega-stars like Beyoncé and Brandy and helped him land several guest spots on the album of the year, Jay-Z and Kanye's Watch the Throne. As a result, his 2012 album, by all reports in the finishing stages, will no doubt be one of the most anticipated R&B debuts in recent memory.

Feenix is taking the Apple approach to releasing products, make one model per year and make sure it's really good. This year, their mouse is Nascita, which is shaped a bit like a Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 (one of the greatest mice ever). Nascita is driverless, so there is not any extra software to install, has built in DPI up and down buttons with a small screen showing the current DPI, and of course forward and back buttons. It is also ergonomically designed for palm, claw, and semi-claw gamers.

Since Michael has moved into the toddler room at daycare, my husband and I have been invited to two birthday parties for 2 year olds - the parents of whom we have NEVER MET. They obviously just sent invitations to the entire room.
I'm not a fan of this - I think it screams "we are looking for gifts." What do you guys think?

PHOTOS: Love lives of Real Housewives stars
Glanville, 40, broke the casting news via Twitter in November 2012. "I just found out I'm going to be on the new 90210 with Camille," she wrote. "So nervous but happy! I can't act. Good thing I'm playing myself." The Bravo reality stars taped their episode in January.

Mancini signs new City dealComment on this story
London - Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini has agreed a new five-year contract with the Premier League champions, the club announced on Monday.
"Manchester City is a fantastic football club, from the owner, chairman, board and the executive team, through to the players, staff and fans," said Italian Mancini.
"I am very much looking forward to the challenges and excitement ahead."
Mancini replaced Mark Hughes in December 2009 and led City to FA Cup success in 2011 before last season's title triumph when they lifted their first top-flight crown since 1968. – Reuters

We request a logo designed for a new company. The branding will be high end. Please send over bids and/or first drafts.
Company name = RENNERcustom
"Renner" is a German family name and means racer, courser.
"custom" refers to the product: custom sized tracksuits
Here are the considerations:
(1) RENNERcustom offers exclusively made to measure leather racing suits for motorcyclists. The brand brings togehter upscale quality for well-off bikers (age 35 to 60) with high-performance sportswear. The logo should evoke this: quality and performance. Look: dynamic, status conscious, classy
(2) The logo clearly states who we are-there will be no other slogans. The logo (i.e. RENNERcustom) can be pure type, or it can be pictorial (taking inspiration from "racer, courser")
(3) It should be a combination of logo (i.e. RENNERcustom, based on type) and symbol. Logo and symbol must work togehter, but also indepenently. The symbol can be based on my family emblem (a kn...

It won't come as much of a surprise to learn that "Date Movie," which Fox declined to screen in advance for critics, doesn't play well in the theater — at least not on a Friday morning in Glendale with three people in the audience. Maybe if the theater had been packed with freshly concussed, oxygen-deprived teens on drugs, the scene might have been slightly less funereal. But I doubt it. The teens would have had to be conversant in every rom-com and vomedy produced since 1989 to get the full effect, and it seems unlikely you could gather all those characteristics in a single kid.
Directed by Aaron Seltzer and written by Jason Friedberg & Seltzer, who wrote "Scary Movie," "Date Movie" stars poor, plucky Alyson Hannigan as a Bridget Jones/Nia Vardalos type in Gwyneth Paltrow's fat suit from "Shallow Hal." At her black-Indian-Japanese-Jewish-Greek family diner, she meets and falls in love with a Hugh Grant type (Adam Campbell) called — you'll never guess what — Grant Fonckyerdoder.
After a visit to Hitch, the date doctor, and a "Pimp My Ride"-style makeover and liposuction session, she and Grant get together on "The Bachelor" and slog through a string of references to "The Wedding Planner," "Meet the Parents," "Meet the Fockers," "My Best Friend's Wedding" and that commercial where Paris Hilton seduces a hamburger, then eats it.
But, dudes, does a spoof count as a spoof if it's dumber and more obvious than the thing it's spoofing? (Like, what would happen if the toilet-using cat from "Meet the Parents" really, really had to go?) The only thing remotely resembling parody in this depressing waste of time and money is Jennifer Coolidge's sendup of Barbra Streisand as an over-the-top string of Jewish mother clichés.
She's the only remotely likable thing about the film — that and the generic straightforwardness of the title. But they should have been more honest. They should have called it "Flop."
"Date Movie"
MPAA rating: PG-13 for continuous crude and sexual humor, including language
A 20th Century Fox release. Director Aaron Seltzer. Screenplay Jason Friedberg & Aaron Seltzer. Producers Paul Schiff, Jason Friedberg. Cinematographer Shawn Maurer. Editor Paul Hirsch.

The Tigers announced that Joe Nathan had a torn UCL and would require season-ending Tommy John surgery. This could be the end of a once-illustrious career. To commemorate all that Nathan has done for baseball, this Fourth of July, at Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest, they will be eating Nathan's discarded elbow tendons. Takeru Kobayashi said, "I'll be training on udon and Brandon Beachy tendons for the next few months, then a week before I will eat nothing but Sabathia's knee ligaments to widen my gullet." Gotta love that guy's ambitious spirit. So, Nathan's done and Joakim Soria now becomes a top twelve-ish closer with the chance of being top seven-ish by season's close. As long as -ish don't kill my vibe! Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Joe Nathan
Apparently, it was never the elevation in Coors. It was because it was cold in Colorado. Or at least that's what the Yanks/Tigers game looked like last night while it was played in Arctic temps (granted, a hot day in the Arctic) and snow. Other teams may get some ideas that it's all about the cold. "Let's get Howard, Utley, Galvis and Asche on that side of the air conditioner, and the outfield on the other side. Now go straight from the AC to the batter's box. No, don't stop at the on-deck circle! You're dropping to room temp!" Yesterday, David Price gave up 8 ER on 13 baserunners in 2 1/3 IP. That reminded Yankee fans of their teams from the 1950s, or when most of the current roster was teenagers. Obviously, this is just a blip, but if you can buy Price from a panicked owner, I'd consider it, even if it did seem yesterday like Price was Rocky screaming at Mickey to cut him. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Jake Lamb hit the DL with a stress reaction in his foot. Now the Diamondbacks' defense will go from Lamb to the slaughter with Yasmany Tomas taking over. Yasmany makes Sandoval look like a gazelle. Yasmany has the agility of an extra-wide trailer. Yasmany looks like the genie in Aladdin, which means the D-Backs's 3rd base shituation was Lamb-or-Genie, which is also a northern Italian farmer's lamb that he hung a car medallion around its neck and rides around to swap meets. I'd look at Yasmany in all leagues (yesterday, he went 2-for-3, 1 run with only one error!), because he does have power to spare — think 27-homer power — and he could surprise people with some regular playing time. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Welcome back to the most important Razzball Commenter Leagues post you will read all week. Okay, well, it's the only one, but lets not split hairs. Speaking of splitting hairs, I really need a haircut and a beard trim. I look like a hippy. Which reminds me of a movie I watched the other day after another fantasy related bout of insomnia. Back in the 90's, we had a lot of good low budget flicks to entertain us while we waited for the internet to get better. PCU was one of my favorites from this genre that still to this day holds up with its commentary on the ridiculousness of higher education, why you shouldn't get high and go out in public and of course the concept of don't be that guy. [Jay's Note: Swingers is better.] Oh the good times we had on couches with cheap pizza and malt liquor. Now, you might be wondering what this movie has to do with the RCL's and you are right in asking, so I'll tell you. Nothing, I'm just distracting you because it's still too early for the master standings. I'm sorry guys and four girl readers. We will have to wait until next week to premier the official standings. Until then, assume you are in first overall if you are in first place in your league. We cool? Alright then let's move on…Please, blog, may I have some more?
Why does it seem like there's always more closer situations in flux in the first week than at any other time? Well, whether that's true or not, this year was no different. Don't even try to think about what that actually means. Here's your sumary: By Thursday there were already three new closers, then Sunday we had two old guys getting worked like speed bags at your local gym.Please, blog, may I have some more?
If you had 75 hours into the season for when Joakim Soria would become the closer in Detroit, you win a brand new car*! *Prizes not included (there's no car; stop being greedy, you instead get words pieced together by the Fantasy Master Lothario). The Tigers' pen is more of a pencil and a dull one at that. Where for art thou, Willie Hernandez? My kingdom for Todd Jones! Poopie Grande by any other name is still Poopie Grande. That was Shakespeare, you ignant boo-boo! The Tigers did get better yesterday with Joe Nathan, hitting the DL with a flexor strain in his elbow. Like when you remove that hair from your lip mole, it's addition by subtraction. For those of you that drafted Soria, well done. Hopefully, he keeps the job all year. If Barry Manilow can find love, anything's possible. By the by, all this time I thought he put the emphasis on Dee in Mandy. Guess I was wrong. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
The pieces are all set, and it's like the beginning of checkers… Before you secretly cheat while your cousin isn't looking, you should know that 28-of-the-30 teams have labeled a guy to be their respective closer. Now, for some, that's like being labeled the "Hand of the King" and with bad pitching performances, their heads will soon be on a pike out side of Comerica. Yeah, that was a shot at you Joe Nathan, we are all whistling happy trails under our breath as you slowly ride of into the sunset Shane style.Please, blog, may I have some more?
Greetings! The time has come! This is what we've all been so patiently waiting for! Yaaaaaaasssss, Bruce Jenner's sex change is upon us!!! Rejoice! It's also a cool time of the year because MLB is starting up again. I suppose that means we should get down on some mo fantasy baseball type shizzz. Are you ready? No, I said, ARE YOUR READY!?!? Okay, sweet.
I so desperately wanted to write a preseason piece on Domonic Brown, but I was notified that he received over 500 words in my outfielders post, making it a no go this week. Can you even imagine? That would be like some moron pathetically green lighting a sequel to Paul Blart: Mall Cop. Only my Domonic column would probably go on to win awards and Blart 2 would be about as entertaining as watching Rosie O'Donnell's love box fart for two straight hours…..WHAT?!?!?!?!? THEY'RE MAKING A PAUL BLART SEQUEL!??! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE!?!?!? My generation got Home Alone and Radio Flyer. The children of today get Paul effing Blart? Kevin James should be ashamed of himself for this. It's embarrassing enough piggybacking the falling star that is Adam Sandler into 90% of his movie roles, but this is beyond pathetic. Hey, at least his untalented brother will get another meaningless role. Laaaaaawd, make it stop.
Enough about Blart. I'm here to talk about closers. I am Tehol Beddict, and this is Disgrace/Delight! Take Heed!Please, blog, may I have some more?
Whenever spring training starts to wind down and the closer spot is yet to be determined, it's never a good thing. It causes rosters to get fat off the land, and wastes your draft picks on no-news type situations. I will turn my one good lazy eye to the Minute Maid conundrum of "who closes for the Astros?" Some may ask: "who cares?" But this is the essence of SAGNOF believers. Cheap closers are what makes the fantasy world get on a sit, spin, chug a beer, and scream obscenities at trolley cars. So from the beginning of the hot-stove baseball season, and even after they signed Luke Gregerson, I believe that it's still Chad Qualls' job. No news is good news for the incumbent… Even though the news all across the reliever landscape is all speculation, "he said this" and "the beat writer said that". Well, the only person who actually knows is the manager, Hinch. So I am going to do my best to break it down from my ivory soap tower. Stick around, there may be something fun or edible once you get inside.Please, blog, may I have some more?
Let's head on over to our friends in the American League Central to see which position battles they have going on during Spring Training.
First, in Cleveland, Brandon Moss will bring his power bat to Jaco…I mean, Progressive Field. Moss will look to prove his success in Oakland is who the real Moss is, not the one that Pirates' fans dealt with. I'm not bitter, I promise.Please, blog, may I have some more?

What is a brief summary of 'The Small Key' by Paz Latorena?
"The Small Key" is a short story by Philipino author Paz Latorena. It is about a woman named Soledad who is married to a man named Pedro Buhay. They live on a farm. One morning Soledad finds herself knowing that the farm will produce plenty but that she still had some inner feeling of discontent. She planned to mend some of her husband's shirts, which were in a locked trunk. Pedro took out from his pocket a string which held two keys, one large and shiny and one small and rusty. He gave Soledad the large key to his trunk and put the small key back in his jacket pocket. Since it was hot that morning, he removed his coat before leaving to work in the field. When he was gone, Soledad began to fold the jacket and the small key fell to the floor. It is obvious that Pedro values the small key while Soledad fears it.
Soledad knows that the small key is a key to a different trunk. She tries to busy herself so that she will not think about what the smaller trunk contains, but she cannot stop thinking about it and reveals that the small trunk contains clothing that belonged to Pedro's first wife. She wonders why it is that he keeps her old clothing and why he seems to have a special feeling about them. She obviously fears that Pedro still loves his first wife even though she has been dead for many years by now. She reveals that she hates the things in the small trunk and worries that they will destroy the relationship between her and her husband. Despite her attempts to not think about the contents of the small trunk, Soledad opens it. At this point, Pedro returns home to find Soledad in bed supposedly with a fever. It turns out she does not. The next morning Pedro discovers a pile of ashes and half burnt clothing in the backyard. He realizes what Soledad has done and rushes to look in the trunk to confirm it. Soledad has indeed, burned his first wife's clothing.
Pedro is angry and bitter that this has happened and he expects that Soleda will explain things later. He thinks to himself that he will forgive her because he loves her but that even if she did it out of love for him, it will always remain a matter of some resentment toward her for doing it.

What is the biography of Paz M Latorena?
Paz Latorena, the youngest among the four children of Florencia Manguera and Valentin Latorena, was born on Jan. 19, 1908 in Boac, Marinduque. She finished basic schooling at …St. Scholastica's College in Manila and the Manila South High School (now the Araullo High School). In 1926, she took up Education at the University of the Philippines (UP) in Manila where she also attended a short story writing class under a key figure in Filipino literature in English, Paz Marquez Benitez of "Dead Stars" fame. In 1927, Latorena received an invitation from Benitez to write a column for the Philippines Herald Magazine, of which Benitez was the literary editor. That same year, Latorena, along with other campus writers, founded the UP Writers' Club. The Literary Apprentice, the UP Writers' Club's publication, then ran a short story by Latorena, "A Christmas Tale." Latorena also wrote poetry under the pseudonym, Mina Lys, which, according to Tanlayco, had a "romantic significance," for the then young writer. Before the year ended, the Marinduque native won the third prize in Jose Garcia Villa's Roll of Honor for the Best Stories of 1927 for her story, "The Small Key." For her final year of college in 1927, Latorena transferred to UST to finish her Education degree. She became the literary editor of the Varsitarian and published her poems, "Insight" and "My Last Song," under her nom de plume Mina Lys. She shortly earned her master's and doctorate degree while teaching literature courses in UST. In 1934, her doctoral dissertation, "Philippine Literature in English: Old Voices and New," received the highest rating of sobresaliente. Latorena's former students are now giants in Philippine letters: F. Sionil Jose, Nita Umali, Genoveva Edroza Matute, Zeneida Amador, Ophelia Dimalanta and Alice Colet-Villadolid, to name a few. "She was a delight to listen to and was one of the writers of the most beautiful short stories in her period," F. Sionil Jose said of Latorena in a video presentation. "We explored the characters of Shakespeare's stories. She was a formidable presence. We waited for the words of wisdom to fall from her lips and we were never the same after that," Luisa Zumel, a student who was eventually inspired to be a teacher herself, said in an open forum. In 1943, Latorena authored her last story, "Miguel Comes Home." She died a decade later, on October 19, 1953, of cerebral hemorrhage. (MORE)
Who are the characters of 'The Small Key' by Paz Latorena?
Soledad-the wife Pedro Buhay-husband Dr. Santos- doctor Tia Maria- Aunt
What is the theme of The Small Key of Paz Latorena?
small key is about the honesty of two persons ===== i think "small key is about the honesty of two persons" is not exactly correct. I mean the question is what the theme is. a…nd that answer is more related to plot. i think the theme of the story is; "Sometimes people do something to satisfy themselves even when they are fully aware of what the consequences of their actions will be." i think this story is more like pandora's box...

Making your Resume Summary an Asset
A resume summary is one of the most important parts of a resume. Although it is only a synopsis of what the entire summary is, it can give you a large advantage in front of ot…her candidates. Sometimes, a good summary can be the difference between getting an interview and not. This is why you should pay attention to it and write it excellently.A resume summary has the same idea as a movie trailer, or a short summary of a book. You are much more likely to view the film if you like the trailer. Although it might sound strange, it is the same with a resume summary. If you are able to convince the interviewer that you are a good fit for the job even before he actually reads your resume, you will be in a really good position. This is why you should use the summary as much as you can, accenting on your strong points.If you have decided to include an objective in your resume, then your summary should be just below it. Remember that on any resume, first of all stands your name in a large, bolded font, underneath which contact information could be found. Then the objective (optional), and after it should you write your resume summary.A resume needs to be short and compact, but must leave you with the feeling that you have read a lot. The best resumes are those that use few words, but give the person on the other side a lot of information, as well as making them curious to continue reading on. In a resume, you will not write your average achievements, or mediocre problems that you have sold. You need to put in front your very best. Use the movie trailer example again. If you see a two-minute trailer with all of the best scenes from the movie, you are much more likely to want to see the film and go to the cinema. So, if you are able to emphasize on only your best sides in your resume, you will have a much better chance of getting an interview.It is normal; do not worry. Saying a lot of things when using few words is a very hard thing. So, first of all, give yourself a small rest. Five or ten minutes, during which you should try to think about something different than the job and the resume. After that time, get a blank sheet of paper and think about your career. Think of those moments that made you tell yourself "Did this really happen?" Ask yourself what it was in those moments that made you proud of yourself. Was it a skill that you possess very well? Is it an experience that very few people have and is a great advantage? Write a list of those few peaks in your career. Now these are the things that make you a great employee. These are the things that the employer would like to hear, and they are those that can really leave a great first impression.The resume summary is a small, yet very powerful piece of writing that is given a lot of attention by interviewers and employers. This is why you need to be very careful when writing it. This is your limelight; you have only four or five lines to showcase yourself and your best skills. This decides whether you are going to an interview or not. Keep the sentences short and try to stay within the limit of four or five lines.It is not required to write full sentences that are properly structured. For instance, in a resume, presenting sentences can easily be written as "Very experienced copywriter," or "Five years of experience in copywriting." This is the way in which you can say a lot of things while writing fewer words. (MORE)
In Management
Example of Management Summary Goals
A management summary is an important document that you will need in your small business. Within your summary, you give a synopsis of your company with the purpose of being gra…nted a loan or contribution. A management summary is also known as an executive summary. It is important that your management summary represent as much relevant information as possible without using excess words and figures. Here are some general examples of things that a good management summary cannot do without.Your business name and location is your headline. This is probably the most important piece of information in your entire management summary. It needs to be in a relevant place so that the reader can know right away which company the summary represents. In addition, your information needs to be readily accessible for further contact. Always remember to include your business name and location on the cover of your executive summary and within the first introductory paragraph.In simple terms, your business concept is what makes your business "tick." While explaining your business concept, there are several requirements that you are expected to satisfy. For example, you need to explain why your business is needed, illustrating the market need. Additionally, you need to show how your business will benefit the people who need your product. You also need to address questions such as whether there are other businesses that also provide your particular product, or a similar product, as well as how you intend to outperform such competitors. Finally, your mission and vision statements should also be in this portion of the document since they are cornerstones when defining this part of your business.Once you have given a broad overview of what your business does, you need to provide a more detailed listing of the individual products and services that you intend to offer. This can be an initial lineup that may later be changed, but you should have an estimate of the items that will be included in your inventory, and if possible, the prices of each of these individual items.After illustrating the basic overview of your business, including what it is it does and what it will sell, you need to show your investor that you have a firm grasp of how your business will be managed financially. You need to include information such as how much revenue you expect in a month and how much of these revenues will be converted into actual profit.The pitch should be the last part of your management summary. This is because the information you provided before it should be building up to this important paragraph or section. You need to outline the exact sum that you are asking from the investor, as well as how soon you can expect to break even and begin making a profit. This needs to be done while strengthening your case with the information listed in the projected sales and profits section.The management summary is arguably one of the most important documents that you will ever write as a small business owner. Viewing an example of other management and executive summaries can give you direction for writing your own. Additionally, individuals working in a corporate environment would also be wise to learn how to write an effective and compelling executive summary as it could potentially elevate their careers to new heights. Writing an executive summary is not an easy process. You are expected to apply yourself several times before you reach a satisfactory outcome. Even after your business is operational, it may still be a good idea to check your executive summary and revise it in case you would like to request further funding in the future.Writing a successful executive summary can be accomplished by staying balanced. On one hand, you should be conservative and compelling. On the other hand, you must be enthusiastic. Balancing enthusiasm and professionalism is what writing an executive summary is all about. (MORE)
Writing a Brief Qualification Summary in Your Resume
Your resume serves the essential purpose of opening the door to an interview. Due to the competitive nature of the 21st-century job market, you must ensure that your resume st…ands out from the pile that undoubtedly exists on the typical recruiter's desk. The key to snagging an interview with your resume is ensuring that it includes a well-crafted qualification summery in resume.Avoid the most common mistake of qualification summaries in resume writing. Ensure that it is, in fact, a summary. Write a concise qualification summary in your resume that does not exceed three to four sentences.Use present tense in writing your summary. Avoid passive voice. Applying these grammatical practices lends an appropriate sense of urgency and vitality to your resume.Contain the summary to only your most significant qualifications. A summary is not the place to roll-out all aspects of your experiences, talents and qualifications.Consider a niche marketing approach when preparing both the summary and your resume as a whole. Niche marketing involves targeting your presentation to the intended market. Each potential employer possesses different requirements and objectives associated with a potential new hire. Gear the summary to these needs and objectives.Add a clear, easily read heading. Do not allow the heading, and by extension, the summary, to get lost in the overall design and format of the resume.Review the summary closely, removing all unnecessary language. Correct any mistakes. Edit closely to ensure that the summary is error free from start to finish. Any mistake, of any kind, in a summary -- or a resume -- bespeaks a lack of professionalism and likely dooms your prospects of an interview, let alone an offer of employment.The U.S. Department of Labor reports that the typical resume obtains an initial eight second, cursory examination before being tossed in the trash or put on a peruse further pile. Applying the strategies associated with the preparation of the summary in resume places you in the best position for employment success.Make certain your summary, like all parts of your resume, is free of grammar and spelling errors. There is no quicker way to get turned down for a job than to have these types of errors in your application. (MORE)
Job Seeking 101: Writing an Attention-grabbing Summary on Your Resume
No matter how great your resume is, a poor summary statement can keep it from ever being read. The summary on your resume is the key that opens the door to rest of the documen…t. If you get the summary right, the rest of the resume seems right. The key when crafting this statement is to be concise and complete. These steps help you think through the content as well as the form of your resume summary.Select one or two key character traits that positively define you and two or three skills that best reflect your strengths. Craft them together into one introductory statement about yourself.Describe key positions you have held that are relevant to the position you are pursuing. Try to merge this statement with your opening introductory statement to create one powerful opening sentence.Identify one or two awards or recognition you have received, or mention a major project that you completed effectively. Use action words to describe these achievements.Explain why you are the perfect candidate to step into the role a company needs filled. Use language from the job description to demonstrate why your skills and experience are a perfect match.Go through the statement word by word to ensure you have crafted the perfect summary. Insert as many action words as possible, and try to replace any passive words. Short and concise is better than long and wordy. Try to reduce the entire statement to no more than three lines if possible. Review the entire statement as a whole to ensure it flows well.This is the most important element of your resume. One typo or mistake can keep a potential employer from reading any further. Select a few trusted friends who are excellent with words, and email them your statement. Ask them to suggest as many changes or corrections as they can. Implement their suggestions if they make sense.The summary on your resume should clearly introduce you and clearly demonstrate what you can bring to the table. Writing a summary statement that is clean and clear is the best route to landing a job interview.To avoid a block of text, some resume writers suggest using bullet points to highlight career milestones in the summary statement. You might even launch your summary with a glowing recommendation from a colleague, professor or former employer in the form of an opening quote. (MORE)
Writing an Appealing Summary of Qualifications on Your Resume
The summary of qualifications on your resume gives a recruiter or prospective employer the first impression of your experience and its relevance to the job you are seeking. Th…erefore, it is crucial that you create a summary that captures a prospective employer's attention and inspires close reading of the remainder of your resume. The following tips can help you write a summary of your qualifications that is attention grabbing and, hopefully, lands you a job interview.Your resume's summary is not intended to be a detailed accounting of your life and career. Instead, use this simple formula to write a brief, yet powerful summary of your qualifications: descriptive terms (adjectives) + position title (noun) + skills (gerunds) + addendum. For example, here is the first line of a summary: Proven sales leader with cold-calling, prospecting and consumer training experience.Notice in the complete summary below how the formula is repeated in every segment, and the reference to Notre Dame is the addendum:Proven sales leader with cold-calling, prospecting, relationship-building and product training skills; nationally-recognized consultant in team-training protocols and motivational speaking; creative pioneer in online customer service training and Internet marketing; MBA from University of Notre Dame.By sticking with this formula, your summary is concise but interesting, making your reader want to keep reading.Instead of the above summary, take a look at this version:Salesman, show customers how to use products, gave some speeches in California and New Mexico about how to sell products, have a blog about how to sell things on the Internet, went to Notre Dame.By using strong and attention-grabbing language (proven sales leader) instead of vague and unimaginative language (salesman), your summary projects vibrancy, dynamism and success. Do not be afraid to use a thesaurus if necessary.Remember that your resume's summary is just that: a summary of your qualifications. In the section of your resume where you identify and provide information about your job experiences and former companies, it is important to state your responsibilities and accomplishments clearly in each position you include. However, keep your summary section to no more than four or five lines of text in order to grab and hold your reader's attention.It is generally a good idea to add a quick reference to your educational background (as "MBA from University of Notre Dame" in the above example) as the addendum to your summary formula. However, if your educational background is not in any way related to your career or career goals, there isn't much point to including it. For example, adding "B.A. in Metal Sculpture" doesn't add much value to a summary that is focused on strong sales and training skills.Do not list your previous jobs, companies, duties or schools in your summary. Stick to the formula so that your reader sees your uniqueness through your use of adjectives, your professional positions through your nouns and your dynamic actions through your gerunds.While you must not portray yourself falsely in your summary of qualifications, using language that casts you in the best light possible makes your summary noticeable. In the above example, "proven sales leader" is much more interesting than "salesman." Likewise, "nationally recognized consultant" has more mystique than "gave some speeches in California and New Mexico."Think of your resume's summary as your bait. You are trying to catch the attention of your reader. Your goal is to get a personal interview for the position for which you have prepared your resume. Keep this goal in mind as you are preparing your bait.Your summary should not include information that is irrelevant to the position you are seeking. For example, avoid information such as "won first place in figure-skating contest" or other anecdotal information that might be interesting to you but not to a job recruiter.It is tempting to use your resume's summary section to paint a detailed portrait of yourself and your experience. However, this is not the point of your summary. Your summary is merely a device with which to capture your reader's attention so that he continues to peruse your resume. Keep your goal of obtaining an interview in mind as you prepare your summary as that is the moment in which your personality can shine.Tailor your summary to each position you apply for. Many companies use software to scan resumes, so be sure to include key words from the job posting. (MORE)
The story of sunset by paz latorena?
Sunset Paz Latorena The Man She came to him out of the rain like a rabbit of flotsam washed from the distant seas to the shore by uncertain tides. The wind blew from the ea…st that night and as the door of the rustly shop opened westward, it slammed shut behind her with a sort of vicious cheated force when she hurried in. The whole place rocked with the impact and startled him as he sat on a stool mending a pair of brown shoes in the dim light of a small, red lamp that hung from the blackened sawali ceiling. Outside the shop, the rain lashed down the narrow street with the fury of an aroused maniac, a steady flood from a sky of impenetrable darkness. The water streamed along the gutters, foaming at the heaps of filth congested there, rejected scraps of food, bits of yellow paper, pieces of rags, and untidy dirt. In what weather, no light shone along Barranco, the heart of the slums of the northern district, early as the hour still was. He stood up and eyed her uncertainly as she leaned heavily against the threshold, a slender, half drowned wisp of a woman clutching a faded violet scarf tightly around her narrow chest. "Yes?" he said with rising infection. She looked around the small shop―it was shabby but it was clean―and then at him as he stood under the red lamp, tall in his sleeveless undershirt and dark blue trousers with white stripes. "I was caught by the rain," she exclaimed in a voice hardly above a whisper, "this was the only place with a light." She coughed a dry, unnatural sound that shook her small body from head to foot. "So I came in," she gasped on, "but now I shall go." She turned to the door and opened it. The rain darted in and awoke him from his trance-like immobility and silence. "Don't," he protested, striding to the door and closing it with finality. "Sit down and wait for the rain to stop." She looked up and a tired smile of gratitude lighted up her face for a moment. There was his stool in the middle of the small shop, directly under the red lamp, and there was a small papag in a corner by the small tightly closed window. He led her to that. The only chair in the shop had been borrowed that afternoon by a neighbor and had not yet been returned he apologized with an embarrassed laugh. The papag creaked unpleasantly as she sat down without a word. She cast off the wet scarf from her shoulders with a quick movement, as if its dampness had suddenly become oppressive and intolerable. He sat on the stool once more and resumed his work. Did she live far? Was his tentative query. She nodded. Was she looking for someone living in the neighborhood? Again the mute answer. There were other things he wanted to know but the question that surged to his lips were stilled by her reticence. He glanced at her furtively. There was something vaguely disturbing in her stillness her feet barely touched the floor, her hands were quietly folded on her lap, her eyes were turned down, seemingly intent on the pattern of her red chinelas. The silence deepened, lengthened into minutes. A musty odor of damp earth and humid air hung heavily in the room. Dark wetness crept in through the slits in the nipa wall. The wind continued the havoc without, and in all the world there seemed to be no other sound but the drip, drip on the roof. Then, as suddenly as it had come, the rain stopped. From somewhere in the distance a church bell made itself heard and tolled the hour. He looked up. The woman had fallen asleep. She had dropped on one side, and one of her arms pillowed her head while the other was carelessly thrown across her breast. He put his work down and lighted a stumpy candlestick. He stood up and made his way to the corner to wake her up. Drops of water still glistened on the mass of black hair that was knotted loosely at the black of her head. A stray tendril threw its shadow across her sleeping face. The large mouth with its full but colorless lips was slightly parted by her irregular breathing. He gazed at her for long while-the mass of black hair, the closed eyes with their long lashes the tips of which touched the soft brown of her cheeks. And a sudden desire to touch her face overwhelmed him as he stood above her. She was so small, so soft, so still in the flickering candle light. He remembered that she had looked at him from the door with eyes made enormous by dark circles under them. In the dim light of the lamp he had not discerned the color of those eyes. Were they black? Or brown? They were dark-brown in the clear morning when Barranco woke up to find a strange woman in the cobbler's shop. And they were sad as they met his in the cold and cruel light. But could anything else have happened, he asked himself hopelessly. He closed his eyes and saw her again in the frail and haunting loveliness that had been hers in the flickering candlelight. A long silence bridged the charm of speech. When the spoke it was almost as if her words were so many pebbles flung into that chasm for themer purpose of sound, as full of hopeless regret was her voice. "I suppose, I should…" the words halted there. It was many days later when he learned how she came to him that night of wind and rain. She had been working in the house of a vaudeville star. She had been happy, she assured him, because the señorita was kind. But the younger brother, coming home only that night, had been nasty in his drunkenness. She had fled from the house, from evil eyes and evil lips and evil hands that had seared her flesh with their touch. She had wandered through unfamiliar streets-from the boat she had gone straight to the senorita's house, upon her arrival from the province only a few months before―until the sudden rain had driven her to his door. From mud to mud, he thought as he listened to her story and watched her trembling hands. A sense of the enormous wrong he had done her troubled him, also an intangible responsibility and a vague to atone. He would marry her. He said that aloud, feeling he not only should but wanted to. "But we have to wait," he told one evening across their frugal meal; "marriage cost money. The license… other fees…" "The senorita…" she ventured timidly. "I do not want you to go to that house," he reminded her, "and I shall pay for the license," he added in cold voice. She was silent. The Woman Barranco was horrified―even the slums had a code of morals loose―but not for long. The poor people had too many other things and personal affairs to worry about―for example, how to feed seven children everyday on twenty centavos. In time the neighbors forgot, for they rarely saw her. It was the cobbler who went to the market, it was the cobbler who hung the wet clothes in the backyard every morning. And something in her voice, something gay and undaunted made them stop their work for a while to listen to her and to notice how lovely the day was. For beautiful mornings came after that night of rain-soft sunshine, blue skies, tender breezes―kind days during which she learned to love her tall cobbler who made barely enough money to keep them both in rice and fish everyday. Often she would sit quietly on the papag and watch him as he sat on his stool mending a pair of shoes that would bring them a day's meal or standing by the door talking to a neighbor across the narrow street while waiting for a customer to come in and the night. So they were not only lovely but happy days as well. Yet she counted them, for if work became steady, they might save the money to marry on. Somehow nothing had been said about marriage since the night he had forbidden her to go back to the house of her former senorita. But how she could talk about it, she argued with herself impatiently whenever the question furtively intruded into her thoughts, when there were times when they did not have enough money for the market? Once or twice she was tempted to go to the señorita without his knowledge, but she could not think of a good excuse to leave the house for a long time. And she had learned his anger which was swift and silent and somehow terrible. She had incurred it once by making a friend of the wife of a neighbor and chatting for hours across the back fence for the sheer pleasure of hearing another woman's voice. He had said anything but she had cried because he had eaten his meal without her. She was sweeping the shop one morning―the cobbler had left to deliver a pair of shoes to its owner―when a small gray car made its way through the narrow street and a girl in a gaudy sweater came down, staring with bewildered eyes at the small protection. "Senorita," she exclaimed joyfully as a shadow darkened the threshold. "Yes," the girl in the gaudy sweater hastened inside. "What are you doing in this shop?" "I live here, señorita," she said, dusting the only chair with a sleeve of her camisa and offering it to the unexpected visitor. "I had come to take you back," crossing her silk-clad legs, "because Pepe is now living with Mother. He told me what happened the night you left. But the detective I hired took a long time to locate you." The voice of the señorita was very kind, so were the eyes, and before she realized what she was doing, she had sobbed the whole story. "But he is going to marry me, señorita," she smiled through her tears, "as soon as we have enough money with which to pay the license and other fees." The girl's face softened, became almost beautiful. "Well. Here is the salary you forgot to ask for in your hurry to leave," opening a beaded handbag and drawing out two ten-peso bills and a small card." And here is my new address, in case you should change your mind. "But señorita…" she stared at the bills in her hand. "The other bill is my gift to the bride," she said, smiling. "And now is there anything else I can do for you?" "Yes, there is, señorita," she clutched the girl's arm in her excitement. "Wait for him. And do not tell him you have seen me. Say that you have heard about us from the detective you hired to locate me, that you are giving him this gift of money so he can marry me." "But why?" the girl was puzzled. "Because I love him, señorita, and I want him to think he is paying for the license, not I." she explained as she snatched a scarf―the same faded violet scarf with which she had come to her cobbler out of the night and the rain and hurried out. The small gray car no longer blocked the narrow street when she returned about an hour later. Inside the shop the cobbler was regarding a dirty pair of black shoes perched on his low table with evident dislike. "Where have you been?" he asked casually as she came in. "Looking for isis with which polish our table," she answered in a happy voice, waving a branch of rough leaves before his eyes. "You should not leave the when I am out." He remarked thoughtfully. "People might come in," he added. "Did any?" she challenged gayly. She stood before him expectantly, her eyes starry bright. "Well …no," he spoke slowly as he resumed the scrutiny of the black shoes. A bit of the radiance left her eyes. Rather puzzled, she picked up the isis that had fallen to the ground and went inside the kitchen to prepare the midday meal. Throughout the rest of the morning she resolutely kept calm and refrained from thinking. She would not let anything, not even curiosity, master her into unnecessary doubt, until he himself should, consciously or unconsciously, give the clue to his rather strange behavior. "I have a surprise for you," he told her drowsily as he curled up for his usual afternoon nap. The relief was so sudden and so sharp that it almost brought tears to her eyes. She did not speak because she knew her voice would betray her. He was keeping the news as a surprise. He would tell her about it tonight and she hoped there would be rain to remind him of the night she had come to him. And in a rush of patience for the ugly and furtive thoughts that had troubled her in spite of herself, she ran her fingers through his hair. He was fast sleep. With renewed buoyancy, she moved about the shop the rest of the afternoon, excited, humming a tune as she worked. She made fun of the dirty black shoes the cobbler began mending after his brief nap. She laughed over the very long needle and the very thick thread he chose for his work. But even the night brought nothing. Close to him in the dark she waited in vain for the words that would make of their life together a beautiful symphony, not the sordid interlude it was threatening to be. Seen through the little window, the sky of night, so smooth, so bestarred, looked wrinkled through her screen of unshed tears. Her thoughts release at last, kept her company through the long night like so many shadow specters. And something she could only feel but no name assumed definite proportions with the dawn. The new day brought his surprise―it was carefully wrapped in fine white paper, and he had in his pocket when he arrived home from the market. At first she did not want to unwrap the small package. Truth hung by a hair and as long as it hung, she could swear it was a lie. When she finally did, she was conscious of a sharp and indignant agony. She did not ask questions about it. And she noticed that he was relieved as he was surprised by her strange lack of curiosity. It was a pretty although inexpensive little thing―a square violet scarf of thin silk with a small tassels all around. But she wore the old faded one when, three days later, she told him she had found another job. "But why?" he wanted to know. "I am not earning much but…" "We cannot go on like this," she spoke low to keep the bitterness out of her voice, "it is not right." "You mean…" "Yes. Let us both work and save money. Then perhaps…" She watched his face keenly. There was not even the flicker of an eyelash to betray him. "Where will you work this time?" he asked for a long silence. She had only to show the card the señorita had given her. But her knowledge of the whole torturing incident prevented her from doing so. "Somewhere not very far from here," she told him lightly. A gift was a gift, she reminded herself fiercely. She had given him that money through the señorita without his asking for it, freely, to do with it as he liked. And she chose to let her go. She left late the next afternoon. He wanted to go with her but she asked him not to, promising to send him word and her address later. "The fish is under the basin, near the stove," she reminded him as he helped her into the carretela that was waiting for her. He gave her a bundle, the clothes of his dead mother which he had insisted on her taking with her. His face was pale in the late afternoon light, his hands were none too steady. She smiled compassionate divinity looking down on the puny sins of man. She was still smiling as the horse started. At the end of the street she turned her head and waved her hand to him as he stood by the gate in the failing darkness. (MORE)

Why Did it Have to be ... Guns?
by L. Neil Smith
Over the past 30 years, I've been paid to write almost two million words, every one of which, sooner or later, came back to the issue of guns and gun-ownership. Naturally, I've thought about the issue a lot, and it has always determined the way I vote.
People accuse me of being a single-issue writer, a single- issue thinker, and a single- issue voter, but it isn't true. What I've chosen, in a world where there's never enough time and energy, is to focus on the one political issue which most clearly and unmistakably demonstrates what any politicianor political philosophyis made of, right down to the creamy liquid center.
Make no mistake: all politicianseven those ostensibly on the side of guns and gun ownershiphate the issue and anyone, like me, who insists on bringing it up. They hate it because it's an X-ray machine. It's a Vulcan mind-meld. It's the ultimate test to which any politicianor political philosophycan be put.
If a politician isn't perfectly comfortable with the idea of his average constituent, any man, woman, or responsible child, walking into a hardware store and paying cashfor any rifle, shotgun, handgun, machinegun, anythingwithout producing ID or signing one scrap of paper, he isn't your friend no matter what he tells you.
If he isn't genuinely enthusiastic about his average constituent stuffing that weapon into a purse or pocket or tucking it under a coat and walking home without asking anybody's permission, he's a four-flusher, no matter what he claims.
What his attitudetoward your ownership and use of weaponsconveys is his real attitude about you. And if he doesn't trust you, then why in the name of John Moses Browning should you trust him?
If he doesn't want you to have the means of defending your life, do you want him in a position to control it?
If he makes excuses about obeying a law he's sworn to uphold and defendthe highest law of the land, the Bill of Rightsdo you want to entrust him with anything?
If he ignores you, sneers at you, complains about you, or defames you, if he calls you names only he thinks are evillike "Constitutionalist"when you insist that he account for himself, hasn't he betrayed his oath, isn't he unfit to hold office, and doesn't he really belong in jail?
Sure, these are all leading questions. They're the questions that led me to the issue of guns and gun ownership as the clearest and most unmistakable demonstration of what any given politicianor political philosophyis really made of.
He may lecture you about the dangerous weirdos out there who shouldn't have a gunbut what does that have to do with you? Why in the name of John Moses Browning should you be made to suffer for the misdeeds of others? Didn't you lay aside the infantile notion of group punishment when you left public schoolor the military? Isn't it an essentially European notion, anywayPrussian, maybeand certainly not what America was supposed to be all about?
And if there are dangerous weirdos out there, does it make sense to deprive you of the means of protecting yourself from them? Forget about those other people, those dangerous weirdos, this is about you, and it has been, all along.
Try it yourself: if a politician won't trust you, why should you trust him? If he's a manand you're notwhat does his lack of trust tell you about his real attitude toward women? If "he" happens to be a woman, what makes her so perverse that she's eager to render her fellow women helpless on the mean and seedy streets her policies helped create? Should you believe her when she says she wants to help you by imposing some infantile group health care program on you at the point of the kind of gun she doesn't want you to have?
On the other handor the other partyshould you believe anything politicians say who claim they stand for freedom, but drag their feet and make excuses about repealing limits on your right to own and carry weapons? What does this tell you about their real motives for ignoring voters and ramming through one infantile group trade agreement after another with other countries?
Makes voting simpler, doesn't it? You don't have to study every issuehealth care, international tradeall you have to do is use this X-ray machine, this Vulcan mind-meld, to get beyond their empty words and find out how politicians really feel. About you. And that, of course, is why they hate it.
And that's why I'm accused of being a single-issue writer, thinker, and voter.
But it isn't true, is it?

Wish I'd said it. Gonna send it to all my legislators...with proper credit to Mr. Smith, of course.
That kind of clears things up doesn't it. It they trust you, they would have no problem with you having guns, and if there are wierdos out there, whey would they prevent you from protecting yourself. If they don't trust us, why should we trust them.
As plain as it is spelled out in the article though, I still don't think politicians will get it.
Walk softly ...
Good article, I will be sending it on as well. (With credit)

The 2A is fairly clear. The historical record shows that the intention of the Founders was that the People have the right to defend themselves via arms, and that government as an entity shall be disallowed from disarming the People. Whatever else a citizen in position of governance might think, he/she MAY NOT disarm the People, and the People may only legislate it via the acceptable procedure for Constitutional change. Being disarmed via the "whim and fancy" of back door, unconstitutional actions doesn't cut it. IMO, such people who attempt this should be dealt with as the treasonous dogs they are.
