In the 1990s, there was considerable buzz about the business case for diversity. Businesses who hired individuals from underrepresented groups using the "quota" system were not finding success. Hiring visible ethnic/racial minorities and women as an exercise often led to backlash for the hires and the companies who were unprepared to develop this talent.
Books such as Affirming Action from Affirming Diversity by Dr. Roosevelt Thomas, Cultural Diversity in Organizations by T.H. Cox, Jr. and others heralded the necessity of going beyond "head count" or "surface diversity" and quotas to consider the benefits of a multicultural diverse workforce on the bottom line. The message of these texts 15-20 years ago are still relevant.
My book, Successful Diversity Management Initiatives (Arredondo, 1996), outlined a road-map for organizational change through a focus on diversity. Steps in the process were determining the pros and cons of addressing diversity, consequences of neglecting the diversity factor and the self-interest proposition. Intentionality was essential.
In essence, the academic and professional literature points to paradigms for organizational change and development to fully address diverse talent. One of my fundamental statements was and continues to be "Diversity is a fact of life", not a trend but a global reality.
Employers today recognize that multicultural diversity is at the heart of changing demographics. Just review the list of "the best companies to work for" and the best companies for gays and lesbians, people with disabilities, Hispanic/Latinos and so forth. Talent management is not magical but businesses can learn from one another.
Common factors among the best companies include developmental programs for employees, affinity networks, mentorship, family-friendliness, flexibility (i.e., telecommuting, nonstandard work days and time for education), and so forth.
In a global world of talent shortage, retaining diverse talent requires intentional planning.

Jan. 25, 2013
ATHENS, Ga. – No. 39 Vanderbilt was defeated by the sixth-ranked Georgia Bulldogs, 4-3, Friday afternoon at the Dan Magill Tennis Complex in the ITA Kick-Off.
The Commodores dropped to 1-2 on the season, while the win is the first of the season for Georgia (1-0). The Bulldogs advance to the championship match Saturday where they will face VCU for a spot in the National Team Indoor Championships.
Rhys Johnson and Jeff Offerdahl opened the dual with a doubles win over Garrett Brasseaux and Eric Diaz, 8-4. However, Georgia would go on to win two-of-three doubles matches to take a 1-0 lead going into singles play.
Ryan Lipman and Marc van der Merwe fell to the fifth-ranked duo in the country, Ben Wagland and Hernus Pieters, 8-4. Gonzales Austin and Suresh Eswaran fell to KU Singh and Nathan Pasha, 8-3.
In singles, Johnson registered an upset over the 16th-ranked player in the country, Hernus Pieters, 6-3, 6-3, in the No. 3 position. The win for Johnson is his first over a nationally-ranked player.
A battle of two top 20 players needed three sets to decide a winner in the No. 2 spot. In the end, No. 20 Gonzales Austin came out with a win over the Bulldogs' No. 19 Nathan Pasha, 6-1, 1-6, 6-2.
No. 114 Kris Yee won the final singles match of the day with his three-set win over Nick Wood, 1-6, 7-6(3), 1-0 (10-7).
In the No. 1 position, eighth-ranked KU Singh defeated No. 17 Lipman in two sets, 6-3, 6-2. Georgia's Wagland won in the No. 4 spot over Marc van der Merwe, 6-3, 6-0.
Georgia's Austin Smith sealed the victory for the Bulldogs with his win in the No. 5 position over Offerdahl, 6-3, 7-5.

With the holidays upon us, children bring a lighthearted spirit to the season. In fact they often know just what to say to make the holidays unforgettably memorable: check out Jimmy Kimmel's Christmas YouTube Challenge, I Gave My Kid a Terrible Present. In situations such as this, children tend to display negative emotional behavior because they do not know how to react appropriately. At the sight of a disappointing gift, for example, many children lack the mature social skills needed to control their feelings. However, by practicing proper gift exchange etiquette at home, children will be prepared to handle gift giving and receiving in a respectful, appreciative manner.
Spread the gift of gratitude to your child with these easy-to-follow gift exchange guidelines.
1. Before opening presents, run through Gift Exchange 101. Remember that good manners, much like mature social skills, must be learned. In preparing your child for the holidays it can be very helpful to practice proper gift exchange etiquette. So, find your child's favorite stuffed animal (for example, Sponge Bob) and practice exchanging presents for FUN:
2. Make your expectations clear. For example, "I know this is an exciting, action-packed time, but I expect you to behave considerately and politely. Words like 'please' and 'thank you' are especially important because they are very meaningful so, I want to hear those words a lot." Be sure to reiterate your expectations just before opening presents, a helpful reminder to your child.
3. Reverse roles, allowing your child to be the gift receiver. Together, take 10-15 minutes to reflect on your life blessings. This will promote deep, positive thinking and strong social energy.
When Sponge Bob presents you with a gift, smile warmly and focus your attention on this special moment you are sharing. In a positive tone of voice say, "Thank you, this is so nice of you!"• Keep in mind Sponge Bob worked very hard to buy you the perfect gift. He tried his best to find a gift that you like and chose this gift specially for you.• Regardless of whether you like the gift, thank Sponge Bob for his thoughtfulness. Try to find an aspect of the gift that you can comment on, for example, "This tee-shirt is the coolest color green! Thank you so much."
• If you cannot thank Sponge Bob in person, call and/or write and Thank-You note ASAP. Please share and RT this article if you found it helpful and informative!

Fort Drum community honors heritage of Hispanic-Americans
October 6, 2011
By Mr Steve Ghiringhelli (IMCOM)
Related Links
FORt DRUM, N.Y. -- Soldiers, civilians and Family Members took time to celebrate Hispanic-American culture Thursday during Fort Drum's annual National Hispanic Heritage Month observance at the Commons.
The theme for this year's celebration was "Many Backgrounds, Many Stories … One American Spirit."
The event's guest speaker said the term "Hispanic-American" refers to the diverse backgrounds of American citizens whose ancestors come from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central America and South America.
"But generally," said Command Sgt. Maj. Giovanny Sanchez, command sergeant major of 2nd Battalion, 22nd Infantry Regiment, "most of us were raised having three things in common."
Sanchez said those three things were faith, family values and duty to country. He emphasized the latter by explaining how Hispanic-Americans have a long history of service in the U.S. armed forces.
"Hispanic contributions to our military are as old as our military itself," he said. "They can be traced back to the American Revolution, when an officer in the Spanish Regiment in Louisiana supported the Colonial forces in their fight for independence from Great Britain.
"Hispanic-Americans have played a vital role in every one of our wars," Sanchez added. "Did you know that since the Civil War, there have been more than 43 Hispanic-American service members who have received the Medal of Honor?"
The sergeant major went on to describe "extraordinary acts of courage" that distinguished the most recent Hispanic-American recipient of the Medal of Honor, Capt. Humberto Roque "Rocky" Versace, an American of Puerto Rican-Italian descent who served as a captain in Army Special Forces during Vietnam.
Sanchez said after Versace's first tour of duty in Vietnam, he volunteered for another, during which he was captured by the enemy. Sanchez noted the young officer was brutally interrogated and tortured by the Viet Cong for two years before being executed.
Versace received the Medal of Honor posthumously in 2002.
Sanchez said 18 percent of today's military is made up of Hispanic-American Soldiers.
"We continue to make contributions," he said. "We stand ready in Iraq, Afghanistan and anywhere our country needs us."
Although it's a culture shock for many Hispanics first arriving in the U.S., Sanchez said they quickly adapt by learning the language, understanding American customs and traditions, and assimilating to make the country an even richer culture.
"Hispanic-Americans can be proud of numerous other accomplishments in helping to shape our great nation," said Sanchez, who grew up in New York City after emigrating with his Family from Ecuador at age 4.
He pointed out Hispanic-American success stories, including that of Sonia Sotomayor, who grew up in poverty in the South Bronx and eventually became the nation's first Hispanic-American Supreme Court justice.
"Hispanics should never lose sight of where they are and how they got there," he said. "When we reach our goals, it is important to look behind our back and help the person coming behind us to do the same.
"Through cultural exchanges such as today's event, we are able to get a better understanding of the Hispanic-American culture," he added. "We can learn something about one another. That is what our country and our Army is all about."
When Sanchez finished, the garrison commander thanked 2-22 Infantry's command sergeant major for sharing his remarks with the community.
"I'll tell you," said Col. Noel T. Nicolle, Fort Drum garrison commander, "you and your Family (represent) … a wonderful confluence of cultures and ethnicities that is the United States of America."
Before the food tasting, audience members watched Staff Sgt. Lourdes Madera, Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 210th Brigade Support Battalion, perform a romantic Hispanic dance alongside Staff Sgt. Efrain Garcia, Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 2nd Battalion, 14th Infantry Regiment.
The two Soldiers were followed by Danza Fiesta, a Puerto Rican dance and theater company based in New York City that traveled to Fort Drum to perform.

Comments about Eau De Guerlain Cologne:
Eau de Guerlain cologne is a classic scent that is good any time of day. Since it is a bright, fresh / floral scent it is probably more conducive to warmer weather, but I find it so pleasant that I wear it year-round. The only 'issue' I have with it is that it really won't last all day. You may need a refresher some time in the afternoon if you want to sport the scent that evening. Typically, though, I just put some on in the morning and forget about it unless I have something planned for the night.
All in all this is a fantastic scent that you can't go wrong with. It's not overpowering like so many scents these days are. It's light, airy, and pleasant. It really is a great cologne. I recommend it to anyone and everyone.

How can i stop my baby from biting me during nursing?
My baby bites my nipples so hard after when he's done eating. I scream so loud, my husband wants me to stop nursing. he's only 4 month old. What do I do to make him stop biting me?

What worked for me was a loud exclamation, or, occasionally, a loud inhalation with and "OW!!!!" (enough to startle the little one) and an immediate removal from the breast each time offense is commited, followed by a stern, "No". I nursed him exclusively (nothing else but water) for 8½ months, and night time feedings well past his 2nd birthday. I don't recall how long he was removed from the breast (he's 3¼) but I'm thinking it was 15-30 seconds after the "No". He quickly got the picture that a breast is not to be bitten and immediately interrupts his peaceful "Boobie-Time" I was only bitten 3-4 times using this method, while he was conscious. Perhaps 4-6 other times were my fault for allowing him to lose consciousness (fall asleep) while nursing. I should have been noticing more of the signs that he was finished (e.g. loss of rhythm to the sucking, change in breathing, signs of boredom, difference of tongue position, etc...) and removed him prior to being bitten.posted 12/16/2010 by Bhoozh
http://www.llli.org/FAQ/bite.html My son is 4 months and I am starting to have this issue as well. This information is from the la leche league and I found it to be informative and helpful. I think it's always nice to know "why" something is happening, not just how to fix it.posted 12/17/2010 by llilly718
Sometimes yelling OW or NO can seriously backfire - a sensitive baby may be scared & go on a nursing strike, & an older baby will just laugh, like mine did starting at about 9 months whenever I said OUCH. Some will do it to make you react because they are learning about cause and effect! Babies love experiments. :) The key is that the OP says "my baby bites...when he's done eating." An actively nursing baby can't bite. Watch your LO & when he is close to being done end the session before the bite occurs. If baby does bite, very calmly remove him from the breast & go on to something else - baby is clearly done nursing. If this doesn't work within 1 or 2 sessions, you can get more drastic & remove him from the breast, put him down in a safe place & walk out of the room for 30-60 seconds. Babies learn VERY quickly when something causes Mama to leave them alone. This worked with my LO when she bit me at 8 months. She's still nursing @ 25 m, & I still have both my nipples! :posted 01/25/2011 by Hilpol
best answer that I have found : http://www.llli.org/faq/bite.htmlposted 07/26/2013 by Tarryn4
i would say the same thing, you have to yell owe or noposted 12/17/2010 by kym-baby#6
I agree with LLL. If he is biting, that means he is not on correctly. I had a big problem with biting and I tried the "startling" method and he just kept biting. I started to make him suck so my nipple was further back in his mouth. This way he wasn't able to bite me. So far so good! I am so relieved!posted 06/12/2014 by alythack
My daughter has been biing and drawing blood since she was 2 days old. She is now 7 1/2 minths and has teeth and still bites. I have tried everything to get her to stop, my lactation consultant is even at a loss. So could just be that your baby has a strong oral fixation.posted 09/17/2013 by CandyLette
ya ,thank u very mjuchposted 01/23/2013 by a BabyCenter Member
i need help too,my baby girl bites me too while nursing tried to say no & not allow her to nurse unless she stops biting but she now bites & pulls the nipple without nursing,she's 1yr & 2 monthes old now & dont want her to stop nursing but she stopped already for 3 days now :((posted 02/28/2012 by ninahammouda
My daughter broke 2 teeth by 3.5 months old and my son (3 months) is working on 2 as well. I found that removing my babies from the breast and saying "ouch" loudly worked. After 10 seconds or so, I let them go back to eating. Both babies quickly learned that biting meant that the milk they wanted was removed. Both stopped biting after only a few times of being removed. I continued to breastfeed my daughter until 15 months and ALL of her teeth (yes even molars) were in. Whatever you do when they bite, the key is to do it consistently.posted 12/21/2010 by a BabyCenter Member

The WCHA announced today that the five schools who will be members in 2013-14 support the addition of Northern Michigan and that the league will formally accept the Wildcats next week.
Northern Michigan used to be a member of the WCHA and its return will reunite the Wildcats with its biggest rival, Michigan Tech.
With this addition, the WCHA will grow to six teams: Michigan Tech, Alaska-Anchorage, MSU-Mankato, Bemidji State, St. Cloud State and Northern Michigan. It is expected that the league could add two more to go to eight.

Footnotes of Mad Men: Your Prison, Your School, Your Hospital
The Foucauldian adage goes something like: prisons, hospitals, and schools have the same architecture because they are all centers of confinement. (But is there anything more confining than the suburban nuclear family? Not according to John Cheever or Matthew Weiner!) In Mad Men episode 305, "The Fog," we got a field trip to all three institutions! A sexy school teacher, a surly prison guard and a McMurphy-hating maternity nurse all served as uniformed ambassadors. So how much has changed and how much has stayed the same inside these linoleum-plastered hallways?
§ Sally Draper is acting out and her teacher is concerned. A teacher discussing a student's 'feelings' with parents would be flouting classroom management conventions, and would be part of a progressive new school of teaching. Behaviorial studies of the 50s suggested teachers assume a role of strict authority; if a student was misbehaving, then they were expected to be disciplined, not "counseled," the way Sally's teacher (clumsily) attempted to do. This 1963 guide to the role of a teacher in the classroom is a fine of example of changing attitudes: it encourages teachers to shed their roles as petty despots and "synthesizers of information" and assume a looser, more maternal role.
The ideology in transition recalled this passage about teaching, from Zoe Heller's book on stuffy old teachers and drippy new do-gooders:
Many younger teachers harbour secret hopes of "making a difference"… They, too, want to want conquer their little charges' hearts with poetry and compassion. When I was at teacher training college, there was none of this sort of thing. My fellow students and I never thought of raising self-esteem or making dreams come true. Our expectation did not go beyond the three R's and providing them with some pointers on personal hygiene. Perhaps we were lacking in idealism… We might not have fretted about our children's souls in the old days, but we did send them into the world knowing how to do long division."
There was that lovely contrast of touchy-feelyness with the cold columns of long division on the chalkboard in the background.
§ Speaking of being maternal, Betts has endured a nightmare; meanwhile, Don had his feet up in the cozy solarium. It wasn't until the late 70s that men were regularly allowed in the delivery room. Until then, men's role in a pregnancy, as far the medical establishment was concerned, ended at conception. Before then it was argued in the pages of women's magazines and medical journals that men would "contaminate" the delivery room, both physically and psychologically. Doctors didn't want to encourage the "prurient interests of men." Surprisingly, according to obstetrics historian Judith Walzer Leavitt, the consensus of most men was that they did want to be in the delivery room. In one waiting room guest book, a kind of semi-public library that was kept in expectant father's waiting rooms, one man wrote he wanted to "grab hatchets and chop through the partition" separating him from his laboring wife.
§ Which brings us to the anxious Sing Sing prison guard. Besides being holed up in waiting room, didn't the guy strike you as a bit unstable? Too agitated and erratic even for a papa-to-be. Weird? Actually, no!
From a 1967 study of prison guards:
When the recruit arrives he is plunged into an alien environment, and is enveloped in the situation 24 hours a day without relief. He is stunned, dazed, and frightened. The severity of shock is reflected in 17-hydroxycorticosteriod levels comparable to those in schizophrenic patents in incipient psychosis, which exceeds levels in other stressful situations. The recruit receives little, or erroneous, information about what to expect, which tends to maintain his anxiety.
And then there is our hero/antihero. Though Don's appeal, throughout the show, has been his effortless masculine attitude, he also always is extremely reluctant to engage with other men in the rituals of manhood. We all pace those cold floors alone, I guess.

The results are in from Tuesday's election.
The proposal to add a city manager to Mitchell's city government was roundly rejected 66-34 percent; incumbent City Councilman Dan Allen beat challenger Tim Moon 73-27 percent in Ward 2; and Greg McCurry won the three-way race for a Ward 4 council seat with 51 percent of the vote, compared to 45 percent for Marc Bernard and 4 percent for Deborah Skibsrud-Bueber.
Tomorrow, wherever I go, I'll probably be asked this question: "So, were you surprised how the election turned out?"
Here's how I'll answer:
- I was not surprised that the city manager proposal was rejected, but I was surprised at the large margin. The crushing failure of the proposal reinforces what many of us already knew but kind of forgot: A good way to get an idea shot down in Mitchell is to get a bunch of well-heeled people to support it. Or, as Mel Olson put it, "I think there's something to listening to the common people and not just the elites and the movers and shakers." The city manager proposal was backed almost exclusively by politicians and business leaders, and I think regular folks distrusted some of the message and some of the messengers. Throw in a natural fear of change and an aversion to big salaries, and it was a recipe for defeat.
- I was not surprised at the winner of the Ward 2 race, though I was surprised Tim Moon didn't have a better showing. In the end, I think Dan Allen was just too well known and liked to be overcome by a young upstart.
- The Ward 4 race turned out exactly as I expected. McCurry and Bernard were the clear favorites, and it was clearly going to be a close race. That was evident from a drive around Lake Mitchell, where it seemed every other yard had a McCurry or Bernard sign.
Going forward, I'll be interested to see if the city manager proposal comes back in some other form, like a proposal to bump the mayor up to full-time pay.
And, finally, I'll be surprised if Mel Olson does not run for mayor next spring. Having been the face of the last two major "Vote No" campaigns (on the city manager and last year's proposal to legalize Sunday off-sale liquor), he clearly knows the pulse and has the backing of the voters. Throw in the political skills he gained from 12 years in the Legislature, and he's got a heck of a solid candidacy in the making.
The only question is whether he wants the job, and I suspect he does. He's been a teacher for a long time and could probably walk away from that someday soon with a nice retirement nest egg. The mayor's job would seem a perfect way for Mel to pursue his dual passions for politics and government without being tied to a rigid schedule and with the benefit of a few extra bucks in his pocket from the mayor's $23,024 salary.
That's all just wild speculation on my part (ain't blogs great?), but we won't have to wait long to see if I'm right. The next mayor's race is next June, and we'll probably know the candidates by March. Mayor Lou Sebert has already said that without a city manager to take over the day-to-day minutiae of running the city, he likely won't seek re-election.

SHANGHAI, CHN—UCLA's other freshman, Jordan Adams, led the Bruins to a 72-31 victory on Monday against Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
Not with the team are Tony Parker and, more notably, Shabazz Muhammad, who was not eligible to make the trip.
Travis Wear chipped in 12 points and 12 rebounds as UCLA put on a defensive show case against the Shanghai opposition.
This game was the second of three games over the week-long visit to the Far East.
Saturday night, the Bruins beat Tsinghua University 116-68 in Beijing. That game featured impressive performances from a few Bruins, including David Wear's 22 points and 15 rebounds, Joshua Smith's 18 and 10, and 19 points a piece from Norman Powell and Travis Wear.
The Bruins play against a professional team from Shanghai before returning home Wednesday.

THE CRIME BUFF'S GUIDE TO OUTLAW PENNSYLVANIA -- fourth in bestselling crime author Ron Franscell's crime/history/travel series from Globe Pequot Press -- will be published this fall.
OUTLAW PA continues the popular series that critics, true-crime fans, historians and travelers have hailed as "the ultimate guilty pleasure," "thorough and unflinching," and "the best damn crime travel series ever published!" This rollicking romp across the historic Pennsylvania landscape promises all the can't-look-away allure of its predecessors … and a few surprises! The dozens of fascinating stories in OUTLAW PA are told in the same fast-paced, enthralling voice that has made Ron Franscell one of America's most respected crime writers. Co-author and Pennsylvanian Karen Valentine is a researcher who's long been drawn to the irresistible historical lessons to be found in some of America's darker corners.
Praise for the CRIME BUFF'S GUIDE series"The ultimate guilty pleasure book."
"What's not to love? Don't miss the adventure!"
"The research in this book is simply amazing! Ron Franscell has basically re-mapped Texas, specifically pinpointing where all of our most notorious outlaws lived, performed their gruesome deeds, and died. On top of that, he's uncovered riveting stories about outlaws in far away corners of the state that very few us even knew about. For everyone interested in Texas' great outlaw past, this is an indispensable guide."
"Little-known details peppered throughout the book are what readers of true crime long for. Now, tourists and adventurers alike can also take this new brand of D.C. tour. Whatever their interests, they're in for a real treat -- and they're bound to learn something new."

Pentax Optio LS465 review
A 16MP budget ultra-compact that proves high resolution doesn't necessarily give better image quality. Or does it?
A 16MP budget ultra-compact that proves high resolution doesn't necessarily give better image quality. Or does it?
Pentax's latest bridge camera dons the armour of a DSLR, but boasts the accessibility of a compact camera.
With a Sony sensor, an f/1.8 lens and vintage looks, the Pentax MX-1 sounds good on paper - but how does it deliver?
An 18x zoom lens, 16 megapixel resolution and cheap price demands your attentionin a take-anywhere pocket compact camera.
Does a snapshot camera really need two shutter release buttons? Pentax's 20x optical zoom VS20 thinks so.
Complete with changeable covers and lens rings, the RS1500 can be dressed up or down for any occasion.
Is the Pentax Option W60 waterproof camera a damp squib?
Not only do they work well, Pentax cameras look neat and tidy - or at least they did until the Optio Z10 came along. When the rest of the camera world is going svelte, this little Pentax has gone lumpy and dumpy.
A camera that has dinky little dials and buttons is all very well for James Bond, but what about the rest of us who have stubby chipolata-sized digits? Well, the Pentax Optio T30 offers a solution in the form of a touchscreen that actually works rather well

How to install epoxy-coated roller drawer slides
Why choose these?
- Typically less than $10 per pair, and available in most home centers.
- Because the drawer-mount members wrap around the drawer side's face and bottom edge, they're nearly impossible to install incorrectly.
- More forgiving than other slides if the mating slides don't align precisely, because the slide track has wiggle room for the plastic wheels to move side-to-side about 1/16".
- With no lubricant needed, they're ideal for dusty applications, such as shop cabinets.
For ease of installation, we attached the slide to the back of the cabinet with a standard mounting bracket. (These sell for about $2 a pair.) Start by separating the drawer slide into its two parts: the cabinet-mount member and the drawer-mount member.

He stressed the fact that Spaniards have made great efforts to fight the crisis and that substantial progress has been made since November 2011. He said that the Spanish bank rescue program was showing positive results. He also suggested that economic recovery in the Eurozone should begin in the second half of 2013.
As far as the recent appreciation of the euro is concerned, Draghi said that he still needed to evaluate its influence on price stability in the area, but that he considered it a sign of returning financial market confidence. He declared that the ECB's monetary policy would remain accomodative and played down the "currency war" issue, which has been arousing concerns of late.
Mario Draghi's speech at the Spanish parliament was taking place behind closed doors but a green Catalan party Iniciativa per Catalunya-Verds (ICV), opposing the secrecy of the session, filmed it covertly.

Margaret Mead was the most famous anthropologist of her time; her views often shaped popular movements such as the sexual revolution of the 1960s.
Margaret Mead (December 16, 1901—November 15, 1978) was born in Philadelphia and earned her doctorate from Columbia University. Her best-selling books Coming of Age in Samoa (1928) and Growing Up in New Guinea (1930) explored human development within different cultures and tried to apply lessons from other cultures to Western society. Her views were often influential on the general public, and affter research in Manus she became further convinced that societies could adapt, culminating in her expression "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world."
Margaret Mead appears in the following:

text: Page Content 1Information Technology Management An ITM concentration can prepare you for a variety of careers. Many students who have completed the ITM concentration are hired to work as analysts in companies or consulting firms. Others pursue a more typical IT career as programmers or database professionals. While the various IT job types have a core set of knowledge and skills, each job type also has specialized knowledge and skills. The concentration requirements are designed to provide both core and specialized knowledge and skill sets. The core is gained through two required courses, which include MIS 3660 Prototyping with Information Technology and MIS 3640 Problem Solving or MIS 3690 Web Technologies. The specialization is gained through two electives that are chosen from among several ITM courses. Students are guided in their elective selections by identifying a career interest, which more or less corresponds to one IT job type or position. Sponsored by: Technology, Operations, and Information Management Division Faculty Contacts: Dawna Dewire and Donna Stoddard Faculty contacts serve as advisers to those students who have an interest in the given concentration. You should feel free to contact these faculty members with questions. Required Courses MIS 3660 Prototyping with Information Technology (usually taken junior year) Select one of the following courses: MIS 3640 Problem Solving MIS 3690 Web Technologies MIS 3672 Advanced Web Development Select two of the following courses: MIS 3515 High Tech Entrepreneurship: Accessing Opportunities and Viability of High-Tech Start-Ups or Products MIS 3525 Enterprise 2.0: Building Social Networks to Improve Business Performance MIS 3545 Business Intelligence and Data Analytics MIS 3555 Clouds, Platforms & Networks MIS 3620 Computer and Network Security MIS 3625 Drupal Web Programming Essentials, Bootstrapping Innovation MIS 3640 Problem Solving and Software Design* MIS 3672 Advanced Web Development* MIS 3690 Web Technologies* MIS 4500 Information Systems Project MIS 4600 Server-Side Database Implementation MKT 3515 Digital Marketing QTM 2601 Applications of Discrete Math QTM 3674 Cryptology *If not used to satisfy the required course. General Guidelines Students who are undecided about a concentration should take one of the required courses in order to get a feel for the IT field. While four courses will satisfy the ITM concentration requirements, students are advised that employers often look for a broad and comprehensive set of IT-relted courses that go beyond this number. The best course sequence is to take the core courses first, and then follow with the elective courses. However, no sequencing is mandatory excepting those indicated as course prerequisites. Any X5XX course may be used to satisfy General College Credit requirements (Management Elective or Free Elective), e.g., MIS 4500. Any X6XX course many be used to satisfy the Advanced Liberal Arts requirements or Free Elective requirements, e.g., MIS 3620, MIS 3640, MIS 3650, MIS 3660, MIS 3680, MIS 3690. Related Activities Students who concentrate in ITM may consider working in the college's Information Technology and Services Division (ITSD). This division services the information technology and application needs of students, faculty and administrators through a wide variety of work efforts. Potential employers generally value this kind of work experience that involves solving real problems. Interested students may inquire with David Foscaldo at 781-239-6101 Students who concentrate in ITM may also consider working in the college's Curriculum Innovation and Technology Group (CITG) area. This area conducts and supports curricula development efforts, which often involve working with multimedia and assorted Internet technologies. Potential employers would also value this kind of work experience that involves applying innovative technologies for the design and delivery of web-based content. Interested students may inquire with Tova Duby at 781-239-4516 or Finally, there are typically many part-time jobs listed on the Babson Portal system. (Go to Web Links | Undergraduates | Student Services - Student Employment | Off-campus Jobs.) Some of these jobs are technology-related. A student who concentrates in ITM may find some interesting IT-related jobs in this listing. Students who seek internships or full-time employment opportunities for after graduation are encouraged to view postings on Career Connections. Students who concentrate in ITM may find the following seminar series interesting and informative: Babson Alumni Technology Council (BATC) Seminars.

Reviews for Football Director
Not quite therestinkypantsr | June 6, 2014 | See all stinkypantsr's reviews »
The game is ok, it plays a little bit like the old premier manager titles. I can not hire a coach witout the game crashing which is a tad irritating, but that aside I have not run nto any bugs. The game is enjoyable enough it is a very simplified game and I tried putting random players of lower quality in my team and I still win more often than not(with west ham) I am top of the table at the end of season 1 having done almost nothing to deserve it. Game has alot of potential but does need work.
Great football manager!drafek | Sept. 20, 2013 | See all drafek's reviews »
In this football manager you have to sell and hire players and staff. It's a little different then the other football managers. You can customize a little more. There also are alot of players. You also can watch real life tactics, which is nice. You can also promote players. Worth getting it's pretty cheap!

Reviews for Swords and Soldiers
A Competent Mobile Portbwrussell | April 23, 2015 | See all bwrussell's reviews »
Swords and Soldiers is nothing more, nothing less. It's a pretty standard side-scrolling RTS where you collect resources, deploy units, try to push back your opponents units, and destroy their base. It's almost as if you were controlling the creeps in a MOBA. It does have a shallow but unique and amusing plot and general aesthetic that keeps it from becoming tired to quickly but at the end of the day it's clearly still a mobile game. The UI is obviously touch oriented, its relatively short, and the price is heavily inflated for PC. Regardless, if you're looking for a solid and silly, yet unspectacular, side-rolling RTS on PC then Swords and Soldiers is not a bad choice who's biggest flaw is its price point.
Chinese Monkeys, Mayan Zombies, and Vikingsuntitled36 | June 16, 2014 | See all untitled36's reviews »
This game is ultra simple. You collect gold, build units, and try to destroy the opposing castle (usually). Besides Gold, you also have to manage mana. Three civilizations add some variety to the mix, and the single player mode has a goofy yet charming story about the various characters looking for the ultimate meal. Personally, I loved the game. Overpriced Ipad port, sure! but still charming in it's own way. I've beat the campaign, and I had a blast the whole time. A few games become "memes" in my personal life, and this game does that for me. Anytime I get money as a gift, my mind echoes the women miners of the game: "I loooove gold!" 10 bucks may be steep, but if you can get this for sale, snap it up quick. It's worth it!
An iPhone portmagusonline | Nov. 8, 2013 | See all magusonline's reviews »
When I had first played this game, it was on my iPhone. The touchscreen controls felt tight and were responsive with the interface as well as the general interaction with the game. It falls under the myriad of other RTS side scrollers that exist in the App Store to date. The options are simple, play against a computer/story or against another player. The learning curve is little to none, so picking up the game and completely ignoring the dialogue will not offer you much in the way of punishment. Youll discover and learn quickly what things do and what works best through a small series of trial and error (regarless of the rules). Pattern recognition helps a lot especially against the ai, as they follow a fixed functioning formula that makes them and the game, a relative breeze. Relative.
Nice minigame which will keep you playing for hours.asiersua | Sept. 25, 2013 | See all asiersua's reviews »
I've already seen this kind of games on mobile devices - and they're great, but mostly based around microtransactions which kind of made me stop playing them. This game, however, is on PC, and it has just 1 DLC. It's a lot of fun, and if you enjoy RTS games, then you'll love this one. It's a nice minigame which will keep you hooked for a while, but it's also great if you want to play for a short time because you're in a rush.
Simple, Fun, Polished 2D RTS Gamepremixedpie | July 7, 2013 | See all premixedpie's reviews »
An easy to pick up well paced 2D side scrolling game. Elements are introduced slowly making it easy to learn. Graphics are minimalistic but clean and high quality. Gameplay is well done and reminiscent of web based flash games. There are 3 separate factions in the campaign making a lengthy and varied single player campaign experience. Some humor thrown in help keep it light and entertaining. Overall a fun, family friendly, well made indie side-scrolling RTS game! Well worth the price!
What a Fun Game!Plasros | July 7, 2013 | See all Plasros's reviews »
A lot of fun awaits you playing Swords & Soldiers. Easy game-play, nice graphics, funny sounds. I really enjoyed playing this cheap game. Sometimes there's no need of use of super 3D and DTS sound to produce quality
Simple yet fun.CrysisX | July 2, 2013 | See all CrysisX's reviews »
A great, simple and funny game. Thought it was boring, but now I play it from time to time trying to finish the campaign. I like the cartoon-ish graphics in this game and the environment is nicely done for me. Looking forward to trying the multiplayer soon!
ChallengingDanielZo0 | June 11, 2013 | See all DanielZo0's reviews »
Swords and Soldiers is a blast from beginning to end. It DOES feel a little contrived at times, with the formula not changing very much from mission to mission (Get new power. Use it to beat this mission. Cue cutscene). However, the action doesn't ever really feel like it stagnates, and missions can be completed quickly allowing it to be digested in bite-sized chunks, also making it a great mobile choice. It's an interesting spin on the RTS genre, with the 2D perspective
RTS in form of a 2D side-scrollerShav | May 31, 2013 | See all Shav's reviews »
Swords and Soldiers is a very unique game. Even though it looks like a 2D side-scroller it is RTS at heart. There are 3 different nations to play - vikings, aztecs and chinese. Each of theme has different units and skills that you can use to obliterate your enemies. The campaign features over 30 different levels, full of humour. Sometimes they can get a bit hard, especially if you are aiming for achievements, but nevertheless they are fun to play. Also, if that isn't convincing enough, there is a multiplayer, where you can play few different gametypes with your friends. Swords and Soldiers is not the best indie game ever, but it is a nice timefiller.
Swords and Soldiers - reviewcarlyle | Feb. 4, 2013 | See all carlyle's reviews »
The game gives us three single player campaigns involving rich and thick, which will keep us busy for quite a while 'together with the excellent multiplayer mode, both local as well as online. The gameplay of the title Ronimo Games is simple and effective, does not engage in excessive complications and goes straight to the point, allowing us to understand the mechanisms involved right from the start thanks to a control system to the occasion. The graphic, colorful and comic strip, complete the picture of a very high quality product, which should be tested especially by those who have never experimented with this particular branch of the RTS. Recommended.
Enjoyable simple Strategy Game!DonVercetti | Feb. 2, 2013 | See all DonVercetti's reviews »
This title has everything it should have. It looks amazing, has humor and a solid build. It also has a very charming graphic style, one Romino is famous for as seen in they're other games aswell like Awesomenauts. There's a little storyline in the game, which has some variation and is worth playing!
Ronimo has done it again!MorphineBear | Dec. 22, 2012 | See all MorphineBear's reviews »
I played this on my friend's PS3 and I was able to get this game on PC. My god, it's amazing. It has humor and strategy all mixed into one. Definitely a must have if you're a fan of games like Age of War on Addictinggames. The only down side is the replay value. Once you finish the game, there isn't much playing, unless you want to do multiplayer. But multiplayer is the same exact thing as single player (except you're not playing against an AI!). Included is 3 minigames which is fun, but hard.
2D StrategyDukePaul | Dec. 17, 2012 | See all DukePaul's reviews »
Swords and Soldiers is a game from the developers of Awesomenauts (a fantastic 2D MOBA) and they did a great job with this original game. This time the gameplay is like a sidescrolling real time strategy game, with three factions, Vikings, Aztecs an the my favourite, the Chinese, when you choose one faction you will need to gather resources to add more soldiers to your amy, research for new powers and then attack the enemy base or sometimes you will need to survive for a certain amount of time, the objectives are different in each mission. The cartoon style graphics are great, you will smile and laugh with some expressions from the characters. Also if you buy Swords and Soldiers you will get a free Voltar Skin for Awesomenauts! so buy it!
A good strategic gameCavalieroscuro | Dec. 17, 2012 | See all Cavalieroscuro's reviews »
This strategic game is fast and funny to play. There are three campaigns to beat, and it will require you about 8 hours. Then, there is skirmish mode and multiplayer mode that will chain you forever! Graphic is 2D and very stylish. Basically, if you love strategic game you will be enslaved by Sword & Soldier.

And God Will Send Rick Perry
Amid prayers for jobs and investment portfolios, the Texas governor becomes the great Republican hope.
HOUSTON—"Pray for our economy!" says Doug Stringer of Turning Point Ministries. "Pray for our country! Pray for our businesses, for jobs!"
His sermon reverberates from the stage into the seats and bleachers of Reliant Stadium. Thousands of Christians—many of the 30,000 who've made it inside—get up and take his advice. They break into small huddles and start praying about the economy. Walking past them, I hear incredibly specific words like "investments" and "9.2 percent unemployment" and "downgrade." I see people tearing up, dabbing their eyes, praying even more. They have to finish quickly, before the next round of songs and prayers. They've already sat through three hours of them; there are four hours left to go.
"The Response" is overwhelming, and that's the point. Just two months ago, Gov. Rick Perry, R-Texas, became the initiator of an event where Christians would "call upon Jesus to guide us through unprecedented struggles." Perry was coming off a Day of Prayer to call for rain amid a crippling statewide drought. (It has not been completely successful.) Why not turn the dial up to 11? The American Family Association would foot much of the bill; a governor with simmering presidential buzz would do the promotion.
It came together better than they could have hoped. The cars driving into the Reliant's many parking lots clogged Kirby Drive for miles and backed up some of I-610. They had left their homes after hearing that Standard & Poor's had downgraded the United States' credit rating from AAA to AA+. More bad news, as if they needed it.
"I'm going to take a hit," says Julius Maresh, a 68-year-old engineer from Houston who had expected to retire by now. Instead, he spent the last three weeks watching his 401(k) lose $50,000. He illustrates his expectations for next week by pointing his thumb down and making the noise a crashing plane makes: "Kerrrrrsshhhh."
They're scared when they arrive. Inside the stadium, cooled 30 degrees below the triple-digit temperatures of Houston in August, they are offered solace and bliss. This is a Christian event, but it's nondenominational, and it has a governor's stamp of approval. Attendee after attendee assures me this is historic. They share stories of the smaller churches that have prayed to make this happen. Starr Finn, a Born-Again missionary who sports a pin shaped like two babies' feet—"it's against abortion," she says—describes The Response as an answer to "The Call," a long-running series of nondenominational mega-rallies.
This is a lot like The Call. The promotional material for the next Call rally, in Detroit in November, explains that the city "has become a microcosm of our national crisis—economic collapse, racial tension, the rising tide of the Islamic movement, and the shedding of innocent blood of our children in the streets and of our unborn." But The Response is a little sunnier, says Finn. It's a complement to the 24-hour, 7-days-a-week prayers going on at some of the churches that organized this event.
"They have been praying and fasting for our nation for a decade," she tells me, standing right in front of the stage where Radiant Band is singing about how there's "no God like Jehovah."
"This is the first time a governor, one of the highest-ranking officials in the government, made a stand and said: We need this," says Finn. "It says in 1 Peter that we should submit to governors. As true believers, as Christians, when the governor wants us to be here, we're really required to be here."
I want to double-check that. I do so with the Bible of a man who kept it in a sleeve bearing the legend: "This Book Is Illegal in 57 Countries." The verse in question says, "Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme." So it thrilled Finn, and it thrilled lots of other people here, that Perry was reintroducing himself as a leader they wouldn't mind submitting to.

Pirates slip by Cardinals 5-4 for fourth straight win
Wednesday, July 31, 2013
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Russell Martin drove home Neal Walker with the go-ahead run in the eighth inning and the Pittsburgh Pirates rallied to beat the St. Louis Cardinals 5-4 on Wednesday night.
Martin's sharp grounder off Trevor Rosenthal (1-2) rolled into left field, giving Walker enough time to score from second. The Pirates' fourth straight win against the Cardinals gave Pittsburgh a 21⁄2-game lead in the NL Central.
St. Louis left 11 runners on base and dropped its seventh consecutive game. The Cardinals led 2-0, 3-1 and 4-2 but couldn't hold on.
Tony Watson (3-1) worked two shutout innings in relief. Mark Melancon pitched a perfect ninth for his fifth save.
Matt Holliday had three hits and drove in two runs, and the Cardinals' struggling offense put together 13 hits.
Walker hit his seventh homer of the season off Adam Wainwright in the first inning, starting a pattern that repeated itself throughout the night. The Cardinals found ways to score off starter Jeff Locke, but Pittsburgh kept chipping away.
Martin's second hit of the night gave Pittsburgh its 25th comeback win of the season.
The teams with the two best records in the National League were mostly spectators before Wednesday's non-waiver trade deadline, though the Pirates acquired minor leaguer Robert Andino from Seattle.
Pittsburgh general manager Neal Huntington stressed he aggressively sought help for one of the National League's weaker offenses but didn't want to do it while gutting a replenished farm system.
"We talk a lot about, we don't want to do something stupid," Huntington said before the game. "We were willing to do something stupid, we just didn't want to do anything insane."
Instead the Pirates, like the Cardinals, opted to do nothing major. The difference is the Cardinals have a roster dotted with players sporting World Series rings. Not Pittsburgh, which is in pursuit of its first playoff appearance in more than two decades.
While Huntington will continue to search for help, he isn't sure his team needs that much, even on a night Locke didn't have his best stuff.
Locke's rapid ascension from fifth starter to All-Star has fueled Pittsburgh's relentless pursuit of the Cardinals, but St. Louis spent four innings pecking away at the left-hander's usually deft mix of breaking balls.
The Cardinals came in hitting just .155 (30-194) during their late-July swoon but peppered Locke for 10 hits, the most he has given up in 31 career starts.
They came in various shapes and sizes, from a hard-hit double by Beltran in the fourth to a swinging bunt by Daniel Descalso that traveled 20 feet. Locke tied a season high by giving up four runs. He struck out six and walked one as his ERA rose from 2.15 to 2.36.
Wainwright, however, couldn't take advantage of the first signs of life by the St. Louis offense in a week. Every time the Cardinals would push in front, the Pirates would chip away, eventually tying it on a sacrifice fly by Andrew McCutchen in the fifth. It marked the third straight day the Pirates produced a run on a sac fly after failing to do so for nearly two months.
Wainwright allowed four runs on eight hits, striking out six and walking one in seven innings.
Notes: The Pirates placed reserve C Mike McKenry on the 15-day disabled after he underwent surgery on Tuesday to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee. Rookie Tony Sanchez, Pittsburgh's top pick in the 2009 draft, will serve as the primary backup to Martin for the rest of the season ... The series concludes Thursday with Pittsburgh's Charlie Morton (3-2, 3.59 ERA) facing Joe Kelly (1-3 3.44). The Pirates are 5-1 in Morton's last six starts.

Print is lovely. The frame however is not of good quality. I did get a large print matted and with the acrylic "glass". The top of the frame bends out from print itself. (I did hang properly)For the price with free shipping and 20% off I will not complain! Next time I will opt for a size that would have real glass.

- The Print
- The Artist
American realist painter Andrew Wyeth (1917-2009) is called "the painter of the people" because of his popularity and deep sympathy for humanity and the struggles of life. Tutored by his father who was an artist, Wyeth had his first one-man exhibition at age 20. When his father died in a tragic accident, his work was forged in to what became his signature style, characterized by a subdued palette, highly realistic figures and depictions of symbolic, emotionally fraught objects. Despite the controversy his art generated when its realistic style conflicted with the 20th century's abstract art trends, it was still featured in numerous magazines, calendars, posters and murals, and in the first one-man exhibition at the White House.

Students SOAR with tutoring, homework help online

SCHOFIELD BARRACKS, Hawaii - Two online technology programs have recently been launched to help military families with tutoring services and homework assistance.
Student Online Achievement Resources, or SOAR, is a free Web site for students in grades 3-11 that helps families manage their children's education with various tutoring resources.
The SOAR program aims to "address the unique challenges facing military children and parents in our nation's public schools, while benefiting the overall student population," according to the SOARAca,!E+Web site.
The Military Impacted Schools Association sponsors SOAR in partnership with the University of Northern Iowa, The Princeton Review, and Skills Tutor.
With a focus on math, reading and language arts, SOAR takes a student to a virtual classroom to determine the student's academic strengths and weaknesses.
Parents can log onto www.SoarAtHome.org and fill out a one-page registration form. Students and parents will be directed to their specific links.
Students can take a test on any of the state learning standards, receive immediate feedback and be directed to a tutorial that will improve their skills, where needed.
Parents can monitor the progress of their child's work from anywhere in the world. Also, parents are provided with resource materials that will assist their children in areas where they may need help.
Information about state education systems and schools is available, as well as locations of schools located in foreign locations.
"Study Strong," available at www.tutor.com/army allows students in grades K-12 to work with a certified professional tutor online, 24/7, to get help with homework, studying, test preparation and resume writing.
Everything is live, one-on-one, anonymous and free. A helpful video can be viewed on the home page that explains how the process all works, after completing the one-page registration form before starting work as an actual tutor.
The tutors are teachers, college professors and graduate students who provide services in all grade levels of math, science, English and social studies. Every tutor is background checked by a third party security firm and certified through Tutor.com.
Conner Dooley, a freshman at Radford High School, said he "likes Study Strong because it's easy to use, it's helpful and it's not complicated.
"It's always available no matter what time it is," he continued. "I have only used it for math, but would not hesitate to use it for another subject if I needed to."
Both Web sites provide free resources to assist with the many challenges faced by military students, to help students improve in their academic endeavors and to ease the transition of moving from one military installation to another and starting over again in a new school.

I was babysitting for two different families that re-stationed back in May and July in 2012. Upon request, I can use them as references as well if you would like to know more.
I also will add that both families let me bring my daughter with me any time I needed for babysitting jobs. My daughter enjoys playing and making new friends! I call her "my helper," so she feels important, but she knows I do have a responsibility to your children, but she just enjoys seeing and being around the environment I work in. I would still like to be able to do this with future babysitting/nanny jobs.
If there is anything more you would like to know, please do not hesitate and send me a message.
My schedule changes weekly, so if I work around your schedule, then I will definitely let you know.
