Customer "Service"
By cjsasaki on Jul 25, 2007
One of the trials and tribulations (otherwise known as hits and misses) is customer service. We all know the reputation of Nordstroms, the Four Seasons Hotel and others. During last winters storms, one of my favorite airlines, JetBlue, got caught up in a major gaffe of leaving passengers in planes, on the ground for hours, hoping for the weather to clear. And the PR lashing they received was unreal and may take years to "clear their brand image". This brings me to tech companies, game companies, or even toy companies.
One of the companies I've been an advisor to, Ugobe, is bringing to market a very innovative "life form" called Pleo (check out pleoworld.com or ugobe.com). With any new startup, the investment dollars typically go into research and development, hiring, production, and distribution. But what about post sale customer service? Is hiring tons of folks to man the phone lines the best way, or outsourcing it to lower cost regions? Or with the web and viewable and readable blogs, forums, wikis going to drastically increase self service? In an age were the "web generation" would rather Google search for answers vs talk to a human, is the human-centric call center becoming an un-needed skillset? Looking at today's youth with mobile devices, laptops, game systems I see more "texting" than talking, more online chatting than real chatting, and more over the internet multi-player game play and in person game play. It would be interesting to see what a typical voice minutes used verse the equivalent data minutes.
As my team provides our partners and ISV's with live support while at the same time trying to also make our web site more self service, I'd be interested in getting your opinions on the trends you see happening over the next 5-10 years? When we deployed our Teleweb capability on sun.com, the vast majority of contacts are electronic (live chats) vs human chats, even though both are as convenient.

I have a perfectly working windows forms C# .NET 4 application that uses a SQLite3 database file to store data and display forms.
When I deploy my app on any machine other then the dev machine, I get an exception thrown and it's message is "Could not load assembly System.Data.SQLite.dll or one of its dependencies. The specified module could not be found."
The System.Data.SQLite.dll reference in the project is set to Copy Local = True. Also, I tried manually loading the assembly with Assembly.LoadFile. The dll is placed in the output directory. I also tried setting the platform target to Any CPU as well as x86, no difference. All machines I am working with are 32-bit. What is the issue here? Why is my application trying to load the assembly and can't find it?

The Standells' 18-city tour starting Sunday night in Charlotte, N.C., and bringing them to B.B.King's in New York for two shows at Lucille's Bar & Grill next Tuesday (April 30), is the biggest for the historic 1960s garage rock band in a long time.
"We're certainly excited about it," says Larry Tamblyn, the band's keyboardist and lead vocalist. "We've done some small tours but nothing to this extent. But things have really skyrocketed for us, with a new album [Bump, released last year as the band's first new album since Try It in 1967], new manager and agent."
Keyboardist/lead vocalist Tamblyn formed The Standells in Los Angeles in 1962—though they're best known for the garage rock anthem "Dirty Water," which reached No. 11 in 1966. Other Standells hits include "Sometimes Good Guys Don't Wear White," "Why Pick On Me" and "Try It"; their songs have been covered by everyone from Bruce Springsteen to the Ohio Express.
Besides Tamblyn, the current group consists of bassist John Fleck, guitarist and co-lead vocalist Mark Adrian and drummer Greg Burnham.
"Things are really going great," continues Tamblyn. "I get a sense of a renewed interest in groups that are older--though I hate using the word 'older.' We all think we're in our thirties! But there really is a renewed interest."
Not meaning to offend fans of contemporary pop music styles that rely more on electronics, Tamblyn adds, "People want to be entertained again, and get back to real music with lyrics they can understand and beats they can dance to—and dynamics, which we use a lot of in our music. I think a lot of kids are experiencing our kind of music for the first time: We get mixed audiences at a lot of venues--everywhere from 16, when they can get in, to our age."
Tamblyn himself is now, at 71, the oldest member of the group.
"We're really making an effort to stay true to who we were and who we are today," he says. "We play old songs and new songs from Bump. One reviewer said they fit right in seamlessly, and at a concert in San Diego the reviewer said he liked our new stuff better! Another one said, 'You blew me away in the '60s, and I never thought I'd say it, but you blew me away more today!'"
The Standells' major appearances last year at San Diego's Adams Avenue Street Fair and New Orleans' Ponderosa Stomp, along with their CD release party at the Satellite in Los Angeles, also brought "all sorts of good publicity," says Tamblyn.
"It's great when people are happy, and that's what we're here for--to make people happy," he says, "to take them back to a time in their lives or brighten up their day now. The combination of all these things seems to be catching on."
Indeed, Tamblyn reports that The Standells play a big concert in Italy on July 5, to be followed by a festival appearance in August in San Diego.
"We've got something going on every month, and it seems to be picking up steam this year," he says.
The band's veritable revival commenced in 2009, when Tamblyn reformed it "with guys who were anxious to perform and tour," including Fleck, who was Love's first bassist before originally joining The Standells in 1967.
"I wanted to record a new album and start touring again, and they all picked up on that vision and made it theirs as well," says Tamblyn. "But we didn't have material or a studio and decided to build our own—in a garage, of course!"
The garage provided "a really intimate setting," notes Tamblyn.
"There's something about recording in a place that's not a pristine, polished-floor environment, that spawned our creativity," he says. "We started writing music that was a throwback to the old Standells and a lot that was a new twist on the new Standells. [Legendary rock radio DJ] Cousin Brucie said it takes from the '60s to today—and hits it out of the park.That's why we like to include the new stuff in the shows."
Tamblyn is looking forward to playing the smaller Lucille's space at B.B. King's.
"It's a lot of fun to do smaller venues and engage with the audience more," he says.
He also likes that he and the band are driving to all the tour stops.
"It's a lot more fun digging the scenery and the good camaraderie with the group," he says. "We're still the same garage rockers—except maybe a few years older!"

When we talk about possibility, we use can, could and may, but they are different in meaning.
This expresses what the speaker believes is a general truth or known fact, or a strong possibility.
This does not express a general truth. The speaker is only expressing a weak possibility.
This expresses a real fact using the present simple. The speaker is certain and no modality is used.
We use can, could and may to ask for permission. We use can and may, but not could, to give permission. May is less common:
asking for permission
giving permission
Yes, you can.
Yes, you may.
more formal/polite
even more formal/polite
When we make requests, we can use can or could (but not may). Could is more polite than can:
Can you call back later? I'm busy now.
Could you call back later? I'm busy now.
Teachers and parents often use can and could in requests:
Can you open you books at page 34, please.
Can you please refrain from chewing gum.
Could you just sit down and listen!
Can, could or may: typical errors
Could in the present only expresses weak possibility. Can expresses strong possibility:
I can travel in July because my exams will definitely be finished at the beginning of that month. (strong possibility)
I could travel in July because my exams will probably be finished at the beginning of that month. (weak possibility)
We don't normally use could to talk about general truths which refer to the present time. We use can instead:
Not everyone can afford to buy organic food.
Not everyone could afford…
We use could, not can, to express future possibility. Can expresses that we are certain of something:
Working in London next summer could be a great experience. (The speaker thinks this is possible, in particular circumstances)
Not: …
can be a great experience.

lightsaber forms
anyone know where i can get info and/or pictures of all the different lightsaber forms and stances? would be interesting reading...
Try the Jedi Academy : http://academy.jediknightii.net/
Or ArtifeX's guide for more details on saber and force powers: http://www.oculis.org/asc/
As far as quality of the guides go, I think ArtifeX's is best if you have some saber experience and want to know what works best, and in what combinations/situations. The Academy guide is a fairly basic one (as they intended).

If you have a long QT interval caused by a medication you are taking or by a mineral imbalance, it will most likely go away once you stop taking the medication or treat the imbalance. Note that if one type of medication causes you to have a prolonged QT, other medications that affect the QT interval will likely affect you in the same way. Ask your doctor about this any time you are starting a new medication.

Event Detail
Hiatus Kaiyote w/ Emily King and DJ Rich Medina SOLD OUT
event description
Giant Step presents Melbourne's internationally acclaimed "future soul" band Hiatus Kaiyote with opening sets by Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Emily King and renowned DJ Rich Medina.
In little under two years, Australia's Hiatus Kaiyote has gained legions of fans from all over the world including highly-respected artists like Questlove, Flying Lotus and Erykah Badu, plus tastemakers and audiophiles like London-based DJ Gilles Peterson, Stereogum and KCRW. The band attracts such a diverse following because the music doesn't fit within the boundaries of a single genre. Each track is like a key ingredient in the listening experience that adds to a fusion of jazz, hip-hop, electronic, opera, rock and soul.
The band's debut album, Tawk Tomahawk, was released on July 30th via Sony Masterworks' new imprint Flying Buddha. It includes the track "Nakamarra" featuring hip-hop icon Q-Tip. "Music has always been medication to us," lead singer Nai Palm explains. "It's a force for self-healing that we're ready to share with the world." Through a musical symbiosis, the band has created its own lane and Tawk Tomahawk showcases the breadth of their talent and love for music lyric by lyric, beat by beat.
"Okay. I'm done. In love"- Erykah Badu
"Oh. my. gawd. this. is. DOOOOOOOOOOOPE. this coming from a cat who drowns in music everyday…. once in a blue moon something moves me so much I'm willing to alienate friends when an UNDENIABLE project comes along. THIS is that project." Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson – The Roots
Emily King
Born in New York City in 1985, singer/songwriter Emily King grew up surrounded by the music of her parents, jazz vocal duo Kim and Marion. By her late teens, she was playing shows in restaurants and venues around New York City including CBGB'S and The Bitter End. In 2004 King had gained the attention of Hitman producer Chucky Thompson, which led to a meeting with famed music mogul Clive Davis, and a recording contract with J Records/Sony Music. Her debut album East Side Story was released in 2007 and later received a Grammy nomination for Best Contemporary R&B Album of the year. During that time, King toured with John Legend and Floetry, and opened for Gnarles Barkley, Alicia Keys, Chaka Khan and Erykah Badu among others.
Rich Medina
Choice defines the man. Rich Medina has made a life based on one choice that has transformed the listening experience of millions. DJ Rich Medina lives, breathes, and revels in sharing the type of music that make a listener remember his soul. It is this awareness of soul that brings listeners back time and again to hear Rich spin: heads nod, bodies sway, emotions expand and coalesce. DJ Rich Medina uses the decks to guide his people away from the ordinary and into the realm of their imaginations. His intelligent blends bridge unexpected song selections that build a collective consciousness of intoxication. Without even realizing it, DJ Rich Medina lures you in and makes you forget who you were before the music began. Medina spins you into the now, into the moment, into the vital essence of who you are. Medina credits his family's Baptist faith as the groundwork and source of his musical inclination and intuition. Music was always a form of celebration and rejoicing. The first time Medina heard Diana Ross's 1976 hit Love Hangover, in the family living room, he knew he wanted to be a DJ.

There were several opportunities and methods for people to provide input. An online questionnaire was hosted through this website.
Additionally, the City of Edmonton held a series of public consultation sessions in November 2010.
Input gathered both online and at the public sessions will assist City Council in its decision-making on a potential downtown sports and entertainment facility.
The City of Edmonton is committed to gathering meaningful input from the public. The City's Public Involvement Policy ensures this process is respectful and accessible.
The Public Involvement FAQ page has more information about the process.

Most students do experience regular stressors, but these challenges typically can be managed with self-care strategies and/or a little support from others. However, if you are concerned that your student is having trouble (e.g., if his or her thoughts or emotions are interfering with the formation of relationships, academic performance, or engagement in campus activities), we want to give you the resources you need.
When you have determined that your student might benefit from assistance, it is usually best to speak with him or her directly about the behaviors you have observed and the university referral services available to UND students.
Students can be seen for crisis sessions or for on-going counseling. The University Counseling Center has walk-in hours from 8:00am to 4:30pm, Monday through Friday. No appointment is necessary during these hours. Call the University Counseling Center (701.777.2127) for assistance.
The Counseling Center staff welcomes consultations with concerned and/or interested family members via phone or in-person. We encourage you to call and discuss any concerns you may have regarding the well-being of your student. The Counseling Center staff member with whom you speak can provide general consultation, suggestions, and recommendations on how to enhance your student's well-being, as well as ways to speak with your student about scheduling an appointment (if appropriate). We can also contact your student to let them know that his or her parent has called with concern regarding academic and/or personal well-being. In doing so, we would encourage the student to come in for an appointment.
Please understand that strict and complete confidentiality applies for all students who receive services at the University Counseling Center, and that we cannot release any specific information regarding a student's visits to parents without the student's written consent. We also cannot confirm or deny that a student has come to the University Counseling Center for services or disclose any information without a signed Release of Information form.
You know your student better than anyone, and you are likely going to be the first place a distressed student will turn. Please remember that the University Counseling Center is an excellent resource for your son or daughter to use for support.
Please call the University Counseling Center for any questions (701.777.2127).

Grilled Tofu with a Mediterranean Chopped Salad
Mild-flavored tofu benefits from this intensely flavored lemon juice-and-garlic-based marinade. If you have the time, marinate the tofu early in the day (up to 8 hours before serving) so it can absorb all the flavors.Yield: 4 servings
Active Time: 30
Total Time: 45
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste

- 14 ounces extra-firm tofu, preferably water-packed
- Mediterranean Chopped Salad, (recipe follows)
- Preheat grill.
- Whisk lemon juice, oil, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Reserve 2 tablespoons of this mixture for basting.
- Drain and rinse tofu; pat dry. Cut the block crosswise into eight 1/2-inch-thick slices and place in a shallow glass dish. Add remaining marinade and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or for up to 8 hours.
- Meanwhile, make Mediterranean Chopped Salad.
- Lightly oil the grill rack (hold a piece of oil-soaked paper towel with tongs and rub it over the grate). Drain the tofu, discarding marinade. Grill the tofu over medium-high heat, basting occasionally with reserved lemon juice mixture, until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side (see Tip). Serve immediately, topped with the salad.

Look3 Report: Stanley Greene on Luck, Film and Supporting Young Photographers
With equal measures of grace, humor, wisdom, and humility, photojournalist Stanley Greene regaled a packed house with tales from his storied career at the LOOK3 festival in Charlottesville last night.
Greene sat on stage at Charlottesville's Paramount theater for a one-on-one interview with Jean-François Leroy, founder of the Visa pour L'Image photo festival in Perpignan, France. During the discussion, he talked about the trajectory of his career, his most recent project on the global impact of electronic waste, the moral imperative of supporting younger photographers, his objections to digital photography, and his new-found appreciation for the challenges of picture agencies, now that he's the co-owner of one.
A central theme of many of Greene's stories was the recurring role that chance has played throughout his career, in large and small ways.
"I honestly believe photography is 75 percent chance, and 25 percent skill," he said in response to a question from an audience member toward the end of the talk. "In accidents, we really discover the magic of photography." (He had been asked how he manages not to rewind exposed film rolls completely, which resulted in some serendipitous images on a roll he accidentally exposed three times.)
As Greene described it, much of his career has been a string of dumb luck stories from the start, when he became an assistant to the late, great W. Eugene Smith. Greene met Smith through his girlfriend, who happened to be one of Smith's asistants. Greene recounted how he was sitting around with his friends one day, smoking cigarettes soaked in a hallucinogen. "We were out of it. He [Eugene Smith] came through the door dressed in black, and we thought he was God," Greene said, eliciting a laugh from the audience.
One day Smith happened to develop a roll of film from his assistant's camera. It was a roll that Greene had shot. Smith noticed it, and told his assistant, "That guy you introduced me to–I think he could take pictures."

The members of the cupcake-worthy sibling trio known as The Band Perry have what many would deem as a picture-perfect career, and the act's latest accomplishment only reinforces the impression.
Fronted by Kimberly Perry, with backing from brothers Neil and Reid Perry, the lineup will soon be featured in the Annenberg Space for Photography exhibition titled "Country: Portraits of an American Sound," which will be offered free to the public May 31 through Sept. 28, 2014.
TBP's inclusion in the exhibit, which will be housed at 2000 Avenue of the Stars in Los Angeles, finds them as the lone "modern-day country band" of the exhibit, according to a March 13 correspondence shared with Examiner. The forthcoming show's focus will present images of the pioneers, poets and icons of country music.
Guest curators for this exhibit are Shannon Perich of the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History, as well as Tim Davis and Michael McCall of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum.
Per Nashville's own McCall, "David McClister's artful photograph of The Band Perry perfectly captures an important aspect of contemporary country music, in its mix of glamour set against the American landscape, and how the best country-music artists reflect the higher ideals and struggles of modern America.
"The photo also expresses that this family band has a style all its own, grounded in the country music tradition of telling compelling stories about how people relate each other--and the changing roles of women and men--in the 21st century," he added.
"Country: Portraits of an American Sound" incorporates both historical and contemporary photographs "to explore how images shape the public identity of country-music performers and of the genre itself," according to the exhibit's PR powers that be.
Moreover, beyond TBP, the exhibit also features iconic performers such as Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton and Hank Williams, not to mention Keith Urban, disc jockeys, country fans and music executives, all of whom are featured in the works of the photographers who documented multiple generations of this popular history via a variety of documentary, studio, promotional and fine-art images
The work of the featured photographers spans from post-World War II America into the new century. The photographers include the late amateur photographer Elmer Williams; the late studio photographer Walden S. Fabry; veteran Grand Ole Opry staff photographer Les Leverett; the late Los Angeles-based photographer Leigh Wiener; Boston-based documentary photographer Henry Horenstein; iconic entertainment photographers Henry Diltz, Raeanne Rubenstein and Ethan Russell; and contemporary photographers McClister and Michael Wilson.

More about The Band Perry
Currently nominated in the 2014 ACM Awards, The Band Perry's managed to secure international success since the 2010 release of the act's self-titled debut album on Republic Nashville. The disc scored the sibling trio a string of hits, including the quadruple-platinum "If I Die Young" ( No. 1 on Billboard's Country and AC charts); platinum "You Lie" and gold "All Your Life" (No. 1 Country).
Since then, the Grammy-nominated trio's amassed more than 10.9 million tracks sold from their platinum debut and gold sophomore release dubbed "Pioneer," which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Country Albums Chart and No. 2 All Genre.

JWC TO JESS DONALDSON; 19 January 1855; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18550119-JWC-JDO-01; CL 29: 239-241
5 Cheyne Row Chelsea / 19th January [1855]
It is my private opinion, you darling Miss Jess, that you are spoiling me— making a downright little spoilt child of me!— Oh you needn't laugh, and say I am too old for that! one never is too old for liking to be much made of; and for feeling a little "carried" (as we called it in Scotland) in consequence. I assure you; after every letter I get from you—and how good you have been in writing in spite of your illness!—after every letter, I go about for several days in a sort of little dream of self consequence! I feel myself "one and somewhat,"1 when I think how they care for me at Sunny Bank! how they love me at dear old Sunny Bank! and what dear good friends they are, who love me and care for me there!— No amount of Lion worship, as the wife of "a distinguished author"—as "the clay that has lived near the rose"2 (foresooth!) makes me carry my head as saucily, as one of your letters! It gets into my pocket, where no other letters get; and I carry it about on me for days; as one used to do one's love-letters long ago! And only when it begins to get worn-looking, do I lay it in the little old wainscoat chest I brought with me from Home; where I keep only relic[s] of my Mother—and the most precious of my paper[s]
I am so glad my godmother3 and you like the Portrait!4 It is a perfect likeness,—now; Mr Carlyle has got a beard like the greater number of people here, which makes him look rather more ferocious than that. Your description of my godmother bending over the print to see it unrolled, went into the very heart of my heart—and I longed to catch her in my arms and give her such a hug! While I am on the subject of pictures; I must ask you have you any friend that sketches? I dont say beautifully but truthfully— I want so much to have a little sketch of Sunny Bank to hang up beside Templand, and the house at Haddington, and Craigenputtoch, and the Haddington Church,5 and dear Helen Donaldson's little miniatures,6 and Madame Recamier7 (that used to hang over the drawing mantlepiece at home—so like my Mother;) and a few other very dear pictures—all in one little room—especially my own— I am sure that sharp pretty Mrs Foreman8 (for instance) must be up to sketching!— Will you ask her, when the weather has turned warm enough for out-of-doors-work? I should be so much obliged to any body that would do itfor me!
Oh you are right not to employ Jane Howden9 to write to me when you can possibly write yourself!— Of all dry, unsatisfactory letter writers, Jane Howden is the foremost!—which is disappointing; seeing what a gentle sympathetic girl she is to talk with. When she gives a message from you, she puts it into such few, dry words that is has more the effect of a BLOW than a KISS, which is the natural impression for a message from you to make on me; and there is a certain tone of wounded self-love always in what she

It turns out that personality is every bit as important to getting a job as technical competence. A 2014 Career Builder survey shows 77 percent of employers believe traits like work ethic, dependability and attitude are just as important as job knowledge. Surprisingly, 16 percent say these "soft" skills are more important than "hard" skills such as knowing how to operate a computer.
Know these top ten questions
More than 2,000 hiring managers and human resource professionals surveyed in February 2014 shared with CareerBuilder what they believe are the most important skills to look for when hiring. The parenthesis after each skill indicates the percentage of managers and professionals agreeing that this skill is important. An interview question is tied to each top ten skill. Anyone preparing for an interview should develop solid answers these questions before going into a job interview.
Many employers interview for soft skills
A recent Society for Human Resource Management survey shows more than half of employers (55 percent) said they interview candidates with behavioral-based questions, which are designed for evaluating candidates' soft skills.
Sell your soft skills
Whether you are interviewing for a new job or you are the person interviewing others for a new job, you need to review these personality traits, rehearse questions related to those competencies and find a way to describe your positive attributes in each area. Interviewers should go one step further and develop a method to score applicant responses.
Recall specific instances when you demonstrated the skills
Use one or more of these traits when describing your accomplishments during the interview. Recall a specific situation and explain how you accomplished your task while employing the skill. For example, emphasize work ethic or dependability by describing how you stayed on task to finish a difficult assignment, prove your self-motivation with how you took on challenging assignments or your team orientation by how you collaborated on a team with a successful outcome.
Survey methodology
Harris Poll conducted this online survey on behalf of CareerBuilder between February 10 and March 4, 2014. They asked 2,138 U.S. hiring managers and human resource professionals from a variety of organizations about their hiring practices. The writer of this article cross-referenced those survey competencies to the Department of Labor O*Net Content Model to give the reader full, complete and more useful descriptions in order to build a better resume.
Strong work ethic (73 percent)
Question: "Tell me about a time when you had to work very hard to reach your goals."
Answer: Describe how you were diligent and worked hard on a project to achieve success. Give a number for the outcome, such as increased sales by 50 percent. That will get their attention.
Dependable (73 percent)
Question: "Take us through a complicated project you were responsible for planning. How did you define and measure success? What obstacles did you encounter? Which ones were anticipated and which were unanticipated? What did you learn that you could, or have, applied to other projects?
Answer: Tell about how you were reliable, responsible, and dependable and fulfilled obligations. Using the above work ethic example may suffice. Simply describe the obstacles you encountered on a project and how your organization depended on you to see it through to a successful outcome.
Positive attitude (72 percent)
Question: Tell me about a high stress situation when it was desirable for you to keep a positive attitude.
Answer: Speak in a pleasant and good-natured tone and show a cooperative attitude. It can be especially effective to think of an example how you kept a positive attitude in a high stress situation.
Self-motivated (66 percent)
Question: Tell me about a time in your background when you were a driving, highly motivated worker. (Don't be too modest-give yourself due credit for getting the job done.) Describe some projects or ideas (not necessarily your own) that were implemented, or carried out successfully primarily because of your efforts.
Answer: Think of a time when you were willing to take on responsibilities, strive to be competent and exert effort toward mastering those tasks. Also, show that you set personal goals and try to succeed at those goals. The goals should be personally challenging and high-achieving. Describe obstacles you have faced and your persistence to overcome them.
Team-oriented (60 percent)Question: What did you do in your last job to contribute toward a teamwork environment? Or, when have you been a part of a team that drove an important business change? What was your role?
Answer: Give examples of how you enjoy working in an organization together with a group of people. Describe your interpersonal orientation as pleasant, cooperative, and sensitive to others and being easy to get along with.
Organized, can manage multiple priorities (57 percent)
Question: Tell me about a time you had to handle multiple responsibilities. How did you organize the work you needed to do?
Answer: Offer examples of how you manage your time and the time of others well.
Works well under pressure (57 percent)
Question: Tell me about a time when you had to cope with strict deadlines or time demands.
Answer: Display maturity, poise, flexibility, and restraint in coping with pressure, stress, criticism, setbacks, personal and work-related problems. Describe how you were flexible in a fast-paced workplace or undergoing substantial change.
Effective communicator (56 percent)
Question: Give me an example of a time when you were able to successfully communicate.
Answer: Your well-written resume will help but you really want to give an example of influencing others orally and in writing. Try to think of a time when you were able to communicate information and ideas in writing and in speaking that others understood as important.
Flexible (51 percent)
Question: Describe a time when you felt it was necessary to modify or change your actions to adapt to a wide variety of people, situations and environments.
Answer: Describe how you responded positively to change in the workplace.
Confident (46 percent)
Question: Describe the last time you were criticized by a peer or supervisor. How did you handle it?
Answer: Maintaining a healthy level of self-esteem can be tricky. Too much bravado can torpedo your interview. It is important to show self control, maintain composure, keep emotions in check, control anger, and avoid aggressive behavior when faced with criticism. Think of a time you accepted criticism and dealt with it calmly and effectively. Trust in yourself and your performance.

When I moved to France almost three decades ago, I wondered whether the ageless, radiant-skinned women I saw knew something about skin care we Americans did not—or if each and every one was just genetically blessed. Happily, I've since learned that the answer is the former: It's not their DNA; it's their toilette. As preteens, they begin a conscientious, multistep skin-care regimen, and while the specifics may change over the years, they commit to the approach for the rest of their lives. (By comparison, in the United States, our holy grail is one multipurpose product that cleans, hydrates and fights aging all at once.)
In France, skin care is a ritual, and it's not to be rushed. To make your body fit, you have to put in time, and the same is true for healthy, glowing skin. At first, I resisted this concept. Spending more than 60 seconds on my skin seemed an unnecessary indulgence. But as I've aged, I've seen firsthand the benefits of slowing down. Today, I am fully converted to the French way, and my skin is the better for it (if I do say so myself). To help you see similar changes, I've outlined the practices that have had the biggest impact on my complexion.
1. Relish your regimen
From an early age, French girl sare taught by their mothers that taking care of their skin is a pleasure, not a chore. A friend of mine, Christine Salort, a pharmacist and the mother of 10-year-old twin girls, stocks her daughters' bathroom with delicious shower gels and lotions. "I believe in encouraging girls to pamper themselves, to enjoy being feminine," she says. "This in turn makes them feel that taking care of their skin is something to be enjoyed." "It's part of our culture," says Valerie Gallais, MD, a French dermatologist. "Obviously, how much money a woman spends on her skin care depends on her budget, but I can assure you that all French women understand that prioritizing their daily toilette will make them look—and feel—better." Once you start to "think French," as I have, you'll also see that even the simplest beauty ministrations have a calming effect. The French toilette isn't just about applying potions; it is a personal, stress-releasing "just for me" moment. And maybe that's the real benefit. Stress raises cortisol levels, and cortisol accelerates aging. So anything you do to reduce angst—especially at day's end—is très bon.
2. Buddy up with a professional
Another valuable lesson I've learned from Parisian friends is that they feel about their dermatologists—or, for some, their aestheticians—the way we Americans feel about our hairstylists: This is someone with whom you develop a close, decades-long relationship. Their dermatologists are trusted allies in the anti-aging battle."With most of my patients, I do the classic annual head-to-toe examination, looking for melanomas or other suspicious spots," says Gallais. "But then, afterward, we always sit down and discuss skin care. If I think she can tolerate a more potent formula, I will prescribe one. If something isn't working as well as we hoped, we drop it and add something new." Many French women will even bring every bottle in their skin-care regimen to their doctor appointment (I do!) so their derm can say yea or nay. Why go to this effort? The most egregious skin sin a French woman can commit (after smoking and sunning, of course) is self-diagnosis. One Parisian aesthetician I know pointed out that a woman may not know whether her skin is sensitive or simply allergic to certain products. But visiting a professional can help you determine what is really going on and how best to proceed, a tactic that prevents you from wasting time and money on ineffective products.
3. Baby your skin
All the French doctors and aestheticians I've consulted emphasize the importance of being gentle with your skin. Why? Some say harsh treatments may trigger inflammation, and inflammation can make skin age faster. (Note: Chemical peels and lasers are generally less popular in France than in the States, partly because of this philosophy.) "It doesn't matter whether a woman has sensitive skin or not," says Gallais. "She must never use harsh products or too much pressure when cleansing. And for the face, exfoliating once a week is plenty."Marie Serre, MD, a leading French dermatologist, concurs. She even took me into her bathroom to show me her favorite cleanser: Bioderma ABCDerm H20 Solution Micellaire ($25 to $33; amazon.com), a gentle wash specifically made for babies and young children.
4. Don't stop at the décolletage
For the French, beauty treatments do not end at the neck. They apply the same rigor and discipline to keeping their body skin soft as they do to preserving their faces. Gentle sloughing (I've noticed that many women make their own scrub by adding coarse salt to their face cleanser), followed by a body cream, is part of the daily ritual. Then, every couple of weeks in the winter, a French woman designates a night during which she will sleep slathered in lotion. When she wakes, her skin is soft and smooth. Here's the routine: Slather your body with shea butter or argan oil, paying special attention to elbows and heels. Now slip on a pair of old sweat bottoms, a tee and cozy socks. (And if you are really committed to doing things the French way, don't ever wear this getup outside your home.)
5. Get your beauty sleep
Though Americans often pride themselves on functioning well on only four to five hours of sleep, for the French, starting your day before the birds is a big beauty mistake. Jean-Louis Sebagh, one of France's most prominent cosmetic doctors, says sleep repairs the body and minimizes the aging effects of stress.
The French sleep about 8.5 hours a night, according to a 2011 study by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, while Americans get closer to 6.5 hours, a 2013 National Sleep Foundation survey shows. For good skin, shut-eye is clearly important—but if insomnia is an issue (and it is for many women of a certain age), my pharmacist friend Christine Salort likes this natural approach to the problem: "When I can't sleep, I put three drops of Roman chamomile or neroli oil on a cube of sugar. Trust me, you need the sugar; these oils taste awful. But they do the trick, and I have no trouble falling—or staying—asleep."

Tortoise iPad Aspen Art Museum controversy: Petition to stop Moving Ghost Town exhibit
ASPEN, Colo. (AP) — Online petitioners are calling on the Aspen Art Museum to cancel an upcoming exhibit featuring three tortoises with iPads mounted on their backs, calling it animal abuse.
The exhibit by Cai Guo-Qiang (Tsai Gwo-Chang) called "Moving Ghost Town" and is set to open Saturday as part of the public grand opening of the town's new $45 million museum. The African Sulcata tortoises will roam around grass on the museum's roof deck garden. Each will have two iPads showing video of area ghost towns.
The museum is standing by the exhibit. The museum says the tortoises were rescued from a breeder and that a veterinarian is overseeing their care. It says the iPads are on mounts attached with an epoxy used to attach tracking devices to wild animals.

I have a question,
There are $4$ boys and $4$ girls and there are $8$ seats. Find the number of ways that they can sit alternatively and certain two of them (a boy and a girl) should never sit together.
I am totally stuck with this one. One way I think I can find the answer is to consider those certain two a single unit and then calculate the seating arrangement ($3!*3!*2$) and then subtract it from the total combinations. Is this the right way to solve such a question?

CES: Nvidia announces its Tegra 4 processor
The world's fastest mobile chip outed
LAS VEGAS: CHIPMAKER Nvidia on Sunday announced its long-rumoured Tegra 4 processor for smartphones and tablets at CES in Las Vegas
Dubbed the world's fastest mobile processor, the Nvidia Tegra 4 retains the firm's 4-1 standard, featuring four A15 processors alongside a fifth battery saving core. There are also 72 GPU cores onboard for powerful mobile gaming, alongside built-in LTE support.
Nvidia showed off the processor on a Google Nexus 7 tablet, which took 27 seconds to load 25 unique web pages, compared to a 50 second load time on the Samsung Nexus 10 - presently the fastest Android tablet on the market. Nvidia boasted that the chipset is also faster than the Apple iPad 4, and three times faster than Amazon's Kindle Fire HD tablet.
"If you load a webpage using Tegra 4, it comes up in a second," Nvidia explained. "With this processor, there's no more waiting around."
It's not just quick at loading web pages, as Nvidia claims the processor has been boosted for taking perfect images and videos too. Nvidia CEO Jen-Hsun Huang explained that the Tegra 4 processor takes images 10 times faster than previous generation processors, making HDR images look much more impressive, adding that it'll be even more impressive than images papped using an iPhone 5.
"We want your phone to be able to take images as good as a DLSR," Huang said at Sunday's press conference, which The INQUIRER attended.
The processor is pretty good for gaming too. Tegra Zone, which has been downloaded six million times, now boasts more games including Dead Trigger 2, which comes optimised for Nvidia's multi-core chips.
Nvidia also showed off its Geforce Experience and Grid, it's Kepler-based cloud rendering service that was first unveiled back in May last year.
We're at CES in Las Vegas, so check back soon for a hands-on with the world's fastest mobile processor. µ

|Oracle FAQ
|Your Portal to the Oracle Knowledge Grid
Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.tools -> To read datas to Linux box from Oracle server
Hi All !
I can't tell I'm newbee - with Oracle I just customer. I have Oracle(8.1) client under Win2000 and can read some datas from server. And have to use it with application under Linux. Naturaly I do it with some manual manipulation. Tried to find possibility to read directly - seems only solution - to install Oracle server, then I can use client or DBI,DBD for Perl.
It can be done. But with my old imaginations to keep programm 200-300mb (plus ???? $) and use it for reading 20 kb daily is nonsense.
Question: Is there any more "light" solution?
As absolutely ignorant about Oracle person I suggested, that NET8 must have
some type API to connect to server and retrieve datas with SQL language. Or in
Oracle everything sealed as in MS (exception for nobles)?
Thanks in advance!

Sweat like a pig . . . then eat one.
It might not be the most appealing slogan but it's being used by a Leslieville restaurant to flog a contest that rewards winners with a 30 per cent discount on a bacon sandwich.
The challenge: cycle or run a route through the streets of Toronto in the shape of a pig.
The proof: a digital map of the achievement recorded on a smartphone exercise app.
"We've had six winners already," says John Clark, 34, who started the Rashers eatery with partner Richard Mulley, 37, last November. "We've just started the contest, but I expect it should pick up as the weather gets better." [Link]
20k isn't much if cycling. Also might need that distance to work off what you're about to eat. My question: does the pig need to smile or can you make it look terrified of the impending fate of its kin?
Cycling downtown is terrifying!

One of the most tried and true ways to lose weight is not only by changing what you eat but also how you eat it. With all the choices we have it can be a bit overwhelming and naturally we tend to gravitate toward what is convenient. There are times when it may seem impossible to eat real food because we may be on the go; however, there are ways to get around that.
Cooking your own meals is the first and best way to lose weight because many of the meals you can make at home will have fewer calories than those that you eat out. When you cook at home you know exactly what is going into your recipe. You can make something with lower fat ingredients and still make it taste good. One other perk to making your own meals is that it is much cheaper to feed yourself and your family than it is to eat out somewhere. Most fast food or sit down restaurants you can't get a meal for less than $10 per person. Thus if you are out with a family of four you are spending at least $40 if not more. Compare that to a dinner at home consisting of roast chicken, rice, vegetables and some bread or dinner rolls, that kind of meal will cost a family of four approximately $14 in total, which amounts to approximately $3.50 per person. You may even have leftovers which would lower that cost.
So you don't think you have time? Choose one or two days a week that you can make time to cook and plan to spend that day in the kitchen. You can easily make enough meals and prepare them for your week ahead. That is the secret to eating better on a daily basis when time may be more limited due to your work and/or busy family schedules.

Mad Money
Mad Money is a television program hosted by Jim Cramer that airs weekday evenings on CNBC. It generally consists of two segments: the Opening Round, where a few stocks are discussed with some depth, and the Lightning Round, where viewers call in with a stock and Cramer advises them to buy or sell. The consistently wired Cramer is known for his "booyahs" when touting a stock.
A recent paper by Northwestern University professors Joseph Engelberg, Caroline Sasseville, and Jared Williams called "Attention and Asset Prices: The Case of Mad Money" (link: http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=870498) demonstrated that Cramer's recommendations on the show do cause the stocks to move the next day, though the effect dissipates within a few trading days.
While Mad Money is a popular show, it is probably best appreciated for its entertainment value than for its stock ideas.

Brandon Marshall still doesn't have an official number assigned. And Davone Bess re-iterated he doesn't want to give up #15.
Tomorrow, both are expected to be at practice for their *voluntary* (ha ha) OTA.
We'll see what they each wear...
Personally, I think Brandon Marshal would want a new number for his new beginnings of the next stage of his career. Big Bold 88 would look stellar running down the lines for touchdowns. On a side note, it would also create a nice square area for Chad to target (not that he needs one).

Long Island Zeppelin fans gave a whole lotta love to A-list tribute band Get The Led Out on Friday night, packing The Paramount theater to full capacity for two hours of thundering rock.
Get The Led Out has toured for years as one of the country's premier tributes (read my review from way back in 2010 here) and Long Islanders turned out in droves for the sold out show. The floor of the Paramount is usually reserved seating for classic rock shows, but Friday night's GA admission meant fans of all ages could rock out right up against the stage with the band.
Fronted by impressively ranged vocalist Paul Sinclair and backed by several guitarists, GTLO opened with Rock and Roll and carried on through nearly 20 more Led Zeppelin classics like Babe I'm Gonna Leave You, The Ocean, and a particularly epic Dazed and Confused. Fans on the floor sang along and swayed to their favorite tracks, each song perfectly recreated by the musicians on stage in all their hard rock glory.
At one point Paul explained the necessity of their six man (and one woman) band, telling fans that reproducing all of Zeppelin's album redubs requires a lot more than just four guys on stage. And while fans sang along the loudest to the more bombastic songs, the band also included a brief acoustic set led by Going To California and Battle Of Evermore for a more mellow feel, showing off both the range of their talents and visiting oft-forgotten gems in the discography.
But the best hits were saved for last, and Get The Led Out absolutely crushed it with a 4-song grand slam finish of Kashmir, Black Dog, Stairway To Heaven and Whole Lotta Love. It's hard to pick a favorite from a group like that, but there's also no comparing the euphoric majesty of experiencing Stairway from the floor of a sold out concert, everyone around you air-guitaring the solo and singing along to the timeless lyrics.
There's no lack of modern Led Zeppelin tribute bands, especially in the New York region, but Get The Led Out consistently delivers both a genuine-sounding show and a performance that encompasses, explores and worships the music just like ordinary fans. The group comes through this area at least once a year, so if you missed Friday night's show keep an eye out for their next local concert and be sure to buy tickets in advance because just like the real Zeppelin, this band sells out every show.
