The Stanford University women's lacrosse team returns to The Farm for the last two home contests of the 2005 season this weekend. The Cardinal will host No. 19 ranked Yale on Friday night at Maloney Field before wrapping up Mountain Pacific Sports Federation regular season play against Denver on Sunday. The match up with Yale marks the third straight weekend in which Stanford has faced a top-20 ranked team, and the Cardinal can post an undefeated regular season conference mark for the fourth straight year with a victory over the Pioneers on Sunday.
This weekend marks the final home stand in the distinguished careers of Stanford's two four-year letterwinning seniors, Nina Pantano and Kelsey Twist. The two midfielders have contributed to the growth of the Stanford lacrosse program throughout their four years on The Farm. Both players became starters as freshman and have started in all 66 Stanford lacrosse matches since the 2002 season. Twist enters the weekend in fourth place on the Cardinal career goals list with 110 career scores, while Pantano is in fifth place with 97 career tallies.
Laura Shane NAMED MPSF PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Goalkeeper Laura Shane was named as the MPSF Co-Player of the Week along with Cal's Liz Reifsnyder, as announced by the conference office on Tuesday. Shane continued to be a rock in the Stanford defense over the weekend, as the Cardinal went 1-1 against No. 1 ranked Northwestern and Notre Dame. The freshman entered the week as the nation's leader with a .595 save percentage, and turned in another double-digit save performance against the top-ranked Wildcats, turning away 10 Northwestern shots. Shane continued to excel against Notre Dame on Sunday, leading the Cardinal to a 6-5 victory. The Irish out-shot Stanford by a 26-19 margin, but Shane led the Cardinal defense with 14 saves. For the weekend, the Baltimore native made 24 saves and collected five ground balls. Shane is the second Cardinal player to receive MPSF Player of the Week recognition, with Sarah Bach taking home the honors on February 21st.
Stanford went 1-1 on a two-game Midwest swing last weekend, falling to No. 1 ranked Northwestern 16-3 on Friday before registering a 6-5 victory over Notre Dame on Sunday. The Wildcats had three different players register hat tricks in Friday's game, with Lindsey Munday scoring three goals and assisting on three other scores. Freshman goalkeeper Laura Shane was outstanding in the cage against Northwestern, registering 10 saves and collecting four ground balls. Sarah Bach, Kelsey Twist, and Megan McClain each scored one goal for the Cardinal. Senior Nina Pantano scored a goal with 18 seconds remaining in regulation to break a 5-5 tie and lift Stanford to a 6-5 victory over Notre Dame on Sunday. Six different players tallied goals for the Cardinal, with Pantano, Twist, Bach, McClain, Megan Burker, and Liz Piselli each tallying goals. Stanford entered the half time break with a 4-3 lead, and Notre Dame scored twice in the second period to even the game at 5-5 late in the contest before Pantano's score gave the Cardinal the victory. The Irish out-shot Stanford by a 26-19 margin, but Shane turned away 14 Notre Dame shots to lead the Cardinal defense.
Yale enters the weekend with a 5-5 mark and a No. 19 ranking in the most recent IWLCA Coaches poll. The Bulldogs dropped to 1-3 in Ivy League play last weekend with an 11-5 loss to No. 3 ranked Princeton. Lauren Taylor has carried the scoring load for Yale, tallying a team-high 24 goals this season. Katherine Sargent has chipped in with 19 scores. Lonnie Sarnell and Ellen Cameron have split time in goal for the Bulldogs this season, with each player having seen action in five contests. Cameron leads the team with 40 saves.
Denver is currently riding a two-game winning streak, as the Pioneers posted a 16-2 MPSF conference win over Saint Mary's last weekend and knocked off Regis University by a 19-3 margin on Monday. Denver improved to 4-10 and 2-1 in MPSF play with the wins. The scoring duo of Steph Greenless and Crystal Jack leads the team with 30 and 27 goals, respectively. The pair accounted for 11 of the team's scores against Regis. Denver will be looking for its first victory over the Cardinal since the 2000 season this weekend.
Stanford will be looking to improve to 5-0 in MPSF conference play when Denver comes to Maloney Field on Sunday. The Cardinal have not lost a regular season conference contest since MPSF play began last season, posting an 8-0 record and a 9-1 mark including MPSF tournament games. Stanford was also undefeated in the Mountain Pacific Lacrosse League, which was the precursor to the MPSF. In two seasons of MPLL play in 2002 and 2003, Stanford recorded an 18-0 mark and collected two league championships. The program has not lost a regular season conference game since the 2000 season, when the squad fell to Cal by an 8-7 score in the season finale before going on to win the Western Women's Lacrosse League title for the third straight season. The Cardinal are currently in the midst of a 30-game winning streak in regular season conference contests, including games played in the WWLL, MPLL, and MPSF leagues.
Sarah Bach NAMED MPSF PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Junior Sarah Bach was named as the first MPSF Player of the Week for 2005 after leading the Cardinal to three MPSF conference wins to open the season. In Stanford's 14-5 win over Saint Mary's, the attacker paced all scorers with five goals and an assist on eight shots. The five goals and six points marked a career-high for the junior. Bach followed up the performance with a pair of goals on just three shots in Stanford's 11-4 win over UC Davis. In the Cardinal's season-opening win over Oregon, Bach scored four goals to lead Stanford to a 19-6 victory.
Kelsey Twist GARNERS NATIONAL HONORS
Senior Kelsey Twist earned a pair of national honors after the first week of the season, receiving honorable mention Player of the Week recognition from both Inside Lacrosse Magazine and womenslacrosse.com. In the Cardinal wins over Saint Mary's and UC Davis, Twist tallied four goals and added seven assists as the team improved to 3-0 to start the season. The senior scored two goals and recorded two assists against the Gaels, and scored twice with a career-high five assists against UC Davis. The five assists broke the Stanford single-game assist mark of four, set by Hedy Born during the 2000 season.
Michele Uhlfelder, entering her fifth season as the head coach at Stanford, has been a pioneer for the sport of lacrosse. In 2001, under Uhlfelder's guidance, Stanford became the first west coast university to ever garner a top 20 national ranking. Uhlfelder has built the Cardinal program into a top 20 team and has Stanford on the brink of earning its first-ever NCAA Tournament bid. The Baltimore, MD native was also recently honored by being inducted into the Greater Baltimore Chapter of U.S. Lacrosse Hall of Fame. As a player, Uhlfelder has participated in the game at the highest collegiate and international levels. She is a two-time member of the USA Women's National Team (1997, 2001) and was a key player on the 2001 U.S. squad that won a gold medal at the World Cup. Uhlfelder is still very much involved with the U.S. Lacrosse as she was chosen as a selector for the U-19 National team in 2003. She has also served as a coach at US Development camps from 2001-03.

Icsid congressThe first Icsid Congress was held in Stockholm, Sweden in 1959, the biennial congress and general assembly of Icsid consistently provided a forum for innovation, dialogue and progress in the field of industrial design. It was at the first Icsid congress and general assembly that Icsid began its role in shaping the profession of industrial design. At this event, the membership had grown over a two-year period from 12 founding member societies to 23 from 17 different countries, reinforcing the need and desire for a world body of industrial design. With a rich history of over five decades of congresses spanning the globe, this international event has consistently drawn a diverse group of professionals and industrial design stakeholders who strive to share and learn about the latest directions, issues, ideas and best practices in design.
Icsid General AssemblyThe Icsid General Assembly convenes biennially, bringing together Icsid's leadership, membership and external stakeholders to discuss the progress of the closing two-year term and prepare for the incoming term's activities.
The general assembly is the highest authority of Icsid with decisions at the event taken exclusively by council members – i.e., corporate, educational, professional and promotional members. Through the general assembly's structure and process, members are empowered with the responsibility and opportunity to address key issues affecting the industry, guide the future of the organisation by electing new leadership, and align the direction of the organisation with the interests of both the membership and the wider international industrial design community.

About time.
The ads you decide to put up will actually have a much higher impact when you're not trying to schil every opportunity.
Good move JMTC. I'm planning to come back to WoW before 4.3, so you and I are going to be seeing a lot more of each other.
Mommar said... September 29, 2011 at 10:43 AM
welcome back matt. 4.3 is going to be very interesting and challenging for gold making. The basics get turned over with non raiding Jewelcrafting not getting the boon of epic gems.
The introduction of added materials (essence of destruction) and with the race to Deathwing there will be a ton of opportunities to amass a huge function.
Whitewolf said... September 29, 2011 at 11:00 AM
Good Samaritan?
Didn't Markco warn you about my weekly stipend of raw meat and a hefty courtesean allowance?
It's good to see someone has resumed the helm. We were starting to wonder if anyone was going to sit in the driver's seat or just sell the membership into spam-slavery.
Good luck with the relaunch.
If you need me I'll be over in the forums weeding out more Russian porn.
AHAHAHAHA Whitewolf
+1 for weeding out Russian Porn
Whitewolf said... September 29, 2011 at 12:12 PM
Important Clarification: The ~allowance~ for courteseans was hefty...not the courteseans themselves.
The Siz said... September 29, 2011 at 12:49 PM
MARKCO, put the blog roll back and you'll be back in business!
Anonymous said... September 29, 2011 at 1:36 PM
who did you sell your site to marcko?
Anonymous said... September 29, 2011 at 2:51 PM
@The Siz: Markco sold his site for 50,000 dollars. He no longer owns JMTC.
Caitlyn said... September 29, 2011 at 3:57 PM
I think I'm glad to see this happening. We'll see. The flurry of spam emails I received with Markco's name on them recently, combined with the long-term, unaddressed decline of this site, with its associated poor front-page quality and lack of forum activity, have put me in the category of a former supporter who's not at all convinced things can turn around.
I am mostly hanging out at the Consortium these days, but if JMTC manages to get back on its feet again I'll be pleased to see it.
In the meantime I am planning to avoid like the plague any of the upcoming Diablo III gold-making sites (and am advising friends to do the same) as my trust in any of the 'big name' gold bloggers is at approximately zero. Good gold-making forums interest me, but they are a very rare beast these days.
Anonymous said... September 29, 2011 at 11:51 PM
JMTC owns Consortium anyday. Can't wait to see the changes proposed. It's about time!
JamJarJay said... September 30, 2011 at 1:31 AM
Sounds like positive news. I too was FED UP with spam emails and adverts increasing in the last few months. Makes sense now though if Markco was trying to up the revenue in order to support a sale. Makes sense for him, but I think it really damaged the credibility of the site. Roll on getting back to a good community here.
@Caitlyn: What would you like to see as far as front-page content to bring it back to it's old standards? What kinds of posts would be most helpful? Are there certain topics we should spend some time on? Would love to hear your (or anyone else's!) thoughts on the subject. I'm excited to get back to the community feel of JMTC that I too first fell in love with way back when.
Archangel said... September 30, 2011 at 10:02 AM
It's much easier than you think. Take the time to read the comments on this very website and you'll have your answers. Start about 2 years ago. It's all in there. Best feedback ever.
Spitt said... September 30, 2011 at 10:29 AM
I don't think I have ever seen a site as plain as this one does currently. If you are going to do without most of the ads, might I suggest going towards 2 columns, rather then the 3, with an empty placeholder?
RE: Russian Porn... why do you think I frequented the forums so much? Now I need to go find somewhere else I can find the "good stuff" for a couple coppers.
Peng Joon said... October 1, 2011 at 2:36 AM
Thanks for your feedback. We are currently brainstorming on how the final design of the site should look like.
Without all the ads, yeah 2 columns sound like a good idea. We'll do a mock up and see how it looks.

Usually when a wife or girlfriend learn that their husband or boyfriend has some ad on any online personals dating site, then at such juncture a man will always claim he was just looking at the pictures.
My question is this a likely story?
Do men actually join dating sites to simply look at the pictures, or read the profiles and at times may even flirt a little bit or do they only sign up in order to meet real life satisfaction?
Let's explore it today!!
There have been various studies and survey in the recent times, which indicates that almost 30% of the people that are registered on a dating site or to be more precise on the escort related sites are indeed looking for some kind of satisfaction.
Yes it is true that the statistic is huge and has been recorded among the vast popularity of our metropolitan city Mumbai. It is the Mumbai escort service that has covered almost 90% of the members who indeed claims satisfaction and seeks the same from such service. In fact this percentile actually lands up to a count of millions. Undeniably one of the largest claims to have was over 30 million members for several sites of this nature.
However there are various purposes owing to which one seeks to get engrossed within such feelings, which is basically termed as infidelity in our society.
The metropolitan society and specifically the rising stress might be considered as one of the kindling factors, for seeking such satisfaction. In medical terms as well we have come to this conclusion that when a person is sexually satisfied, he is all the more efficient in his employment genre.
Another most important point which might become a great source of rising grades in escorts' service is the matter domestic upheaval. Yes there are many instances where your unhealthy domestic relationship, results in unromantic situations among partners. It is at such junctures that men need to satisfy their need with highly authenticated and independent Mumbai escorts.
It is not necessary that one has to approach any escort service owing to some hardship that he/she is facing. At times as human beings one has to succumb to the rising need of hormones, and this is the time when one counts on such service for the simply search for pleasure.
Today I have listed some of the most known and common purposes which leads to the rise of this industry. All of them being true, we live in such a society, which considers this entire concept to be a deceitful action. This article is simply an approach to make things all the more practical and hence ignite the practical notions in this complete taboo constrained society.

Why do children and teens exclude others?
It's a fact of life that when kids form friendship groups some would-be members get left out. A lot of psychology research has focused on what it's like to be rejected.
But now a new study has taken a more unusual approach, asking children and adolescents to recall times that they left someone out, and to explain their reasons for doing so...

The Golden State Warriors' center Andrew Bogut and forward Andre Iguodala were ruled out of Tuesday night's home game against the Orlando Magic, head coach Mark Jackson announced at his pre-game press conference.
Bogut is day-to-day after tweaking his surgically repaired left ankle on Sunday while Iguodala is out at least three games over a 10-day span with right knee tendinitis.
Team medical staff and trainers felt it was best to keep both players out.
Harrison Barnes started for Iguodala at small forward while Draymond Green is in the lineup for Bogut at center.
With injuries to Bogut and Iguodala, the Warriors recalled guard Nemanja Nedovic and center Ognjen Kuzmic from Santa Cruz earlier today where both rookies have been on assignment for sometime. Both players are in uniform though neither has seen much action when available.
The Magic are 4-30 on the road and 0-11 in Western Conference buildings.

Australian Venky Jois also earns Big Sky honorable mention All-Conference honor
March 14, 2013 | Vol. 116 -- No. 47
Paul Delaney
Eastern's Venky Jois (55) had a breakout season for the Eagles and earned Freshman of the Year honors for the Big Sky Conference.
Whether it was scoring, rebounding or blocking shots – not to mention passing the ball and playing defense – Venky Jois made quite an impression on the Big Sky Conference in the 2012-13 men's basketball season.
As a result, the 6-foot-7 true freshman from Boronia, Australia, was selected by the league's coaches March 11 as the Big Sky Conference Freshman of the Year. He was also the lone EWU player on the All-Conference team, earning honorable mention.
"It's a great honor - I loved competing this year for Eastern," Jois said. "There are a few really talented freshmen playing...

I feel comfortable calling Bob Dylan one of the most influential musicians and songwriters…ever. And apparently while the French government agrees, for years they have been denying Dylan an honor he deserves and has deserved for many years.
Members of the French government -- namely Grand Chancellor of the Legion Jean-Louis Georgelin -- have unjustly blocked the singer-songwriter from the Legion d'Honneur for his outspoken use of pot, but it seems Dylan has met someone willing to champion his cause in France's Minister of Culture, Aurelie Filippetti.
Established by Napolean on May 19th, 1802, the Legion d'Honneur is the highest decoration in France for those who have served the "Fatherland" in some way. Given to few foreigners since its inception, Bob Dylan will join a select group (one of whom is Paul McCartney who was inducted in 2012) to ever receive the honor.
Grand Chancellor Georgelin reportedly reviewed the case again this year and found Dylan a man who lived a "chaotic life," but "who is recognized in his own country and throughout the world as a major singer and a great poet."
The folk hero will receive his status of Legion d'Honneur on Wednesday as he is in town performing three nights of music in Paris this week. Be sure to raise a blunt in Dylan's honor this week. You deserve this one Bob!

|Guatemala's 'Little School of the Americas'
|Written by Dawn Paley
|Monday, 19 November 2012 20:14
COBAN, GUATEMALA—Since February, forensic anthropologists have turned up over 400 skeletons at a military base in Coban, Guatemala, in what has fast become one of the largest discoveries of a clandestine mass grave in the country. During the country's 36 year long internal armed conflict that led to acts of genocide, the base at Coban was a center of military coordination and intelligence.

Reflections on snail photography—Part 2
There are good reflections and then there are bad reflections. Here is an example of a bad reflection.
I was trying to photograph a slug that was partially immersed in water. The light of the flash got reflected off the surface of water, fooled the camera.
Here is another shot of the same subject. The slug is well exposed and there is only a sliver of brightness near the slug's tail. But this isn't a good picture either for my purpose, because it's hard to tell if the slug's tail was really in the water.
Finally, here is the best exposure*. The narrow line of reflection on the water surface against the slug's body marks the meniscus, and in doing so, makes it clear that the slug's tail was indeed in the water. To obtain that reflection, I took several shots each with the flash, which was attached to the camera with a flexible cord, shining from a different angle.
*Is it technically correct to refer to a digital image as an "exposure"?

Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) is betting big on Nokia's handset business as the future savior, hoping its recent acquisition will help it establish a material presence in the smartphone space that's eluded the tech giant thus far.
This quarter, the rubber was supposed to hit the road for Microsoft and Nokia as the $7.2 billion acquisition was set to close during the period.
With Microsoft set to become its sole benefactor, why has word spread that Nokia is planning to release a smartphone based on Google's (NASDAQ:GOOGL) Android mobile OS?
Nokia in bed with the enemy?
Although Nokia has had an Android-based handset in the works, few thought it would ever see the light of day.
However, word has leaked that Nokia, in fact, is planning to launch a device powered by Google's nearly ubiquitous mobile OS at the Mobile World Congress later this month. So what does this say about the future of the Nokia-Microsoft relationship? Has it failed before it ever really had a chance to take off?
Not necessarily argues tech and telecom analyst Andrew Tonner, who argues that the move actually makes plenty of sense in the video below.
The true way to mobile investing riches
Want to get in on the smartphone phenomenon? Truth be told, one company sits at the crossroads of smartphone technology as we know it. It's not your typical household name, either. In fact, you've probably never even heard of it! But it stands to reap massive profits NO MATTER WHO ultimately wins the smartphone war.

Exclusive OO gauge model - L&Y Tank Engine No. 1008
By: Robin Jones
Locomotion: The National Railway Museum at Shildon has announced that the next Exclusive Edition in the NRM's 'National Collection in Miniature' model railway series, produced by Bachmann, will be L&Y Tank Engine No. 1008 in pre grouping livery.
Railways are not always about speed and glamour, and the latest Exclusive Edition celebrates one of the everyday locomotives in the National Collection. No. 1008 is a Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway tank engine from 1889 and was the first engine to be built at that railway company's new works in Horwich.
It worked across the L&Y system on local passenger trains mainly, apart from a spell being tried out on London commuter trains in 1926. Returning to its native North West, it continued in service for the London Midland & Scottish Railway and then British Railways until 1954, when it became part of the British Transport Commission collection of historic relics. It was restored to its original condition in 1958.
The model will be available from mid-November exclusively through the museum's online outlet at www.locomotionmodels.com and from the museum shop at Locomotion: The National Railway Museum at Shildon, priced at £95 plus p&p.
The Locomotion Models team are now accepting pre-delivery orders from anyone wishing to purchase this model. The model is limited, and early ordering is advised. Orders are limited to two per customer initially.
If you would like more information, contact locomotionmodels.com by telephone on 01388 771439 or email email@example.com

The Brees household will welcome another little shaver in the near future, but should that happen in the immediate future - say, Sunday - New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees insisted he won't know about the arrival.
The official due date for Brittany Brees to deliver the couple's second son is Oct. 18, one day after the Saints are scheduled to play Tampa Bay on the road. But if the big day comes earlier the Brees have an arrangement in place.
"Yeah, we've got a game plan," Brees said. "Obviously if it happens right now, there's a couple of people in the organization she'd be calling and they'd be finding me and I'd be heading to the hospital. She's packed up, she's ready to go, and we've got a plan for Baylen (the couple's nearly 2-year-old boy): my mother-in-law will look after him while we go and have baby boy No. 2.
"Game day? That's interesting," he said. "She's basically told me that if it comes in and around game time she's just not going to tell me. She's just going to say, 'yeah, everything's great!' She could be laying in the hospital bed, 10 centimeters dilated, ready to go, and she's just going to tell me, 'everything's fine. See you when you get home.' And then I might show up and there might be a little baby waiting there for me. She's basically told me she's going to try to time this as best as I can and do it on a Monday or Tuesday."
Brees said he and his wife have joked about timing the delivery perfectly and seeing if the newborn is "coachable" as a result. But, he acknowledged, "God might have another plan."

Channel 2 Reporter: Nationalists Must Not 'Give Up' Media Battle
Udi Segal of Channel 2 television blames nationalists for allowing radicals to be in the center of media attention on "settlers."
By Yoni Kempinski
First Publish: 1/17/2010, 8:33 PM / Last Update: 1/17/2010, 10:05 PM
Nationalist leaders' failure to prevent violence by right-wing extremists has kept 'settlers in the eye of the camera," Channel 2 television's senior correspondent Udi Segal told Arutz Sheva TV at a conference he attended in the Judean Gush Etzion region, south of Jerusalem.
Segal said, "The cameras are attracted to the radical actions" and maintained that the media is not slanted to the left. He declared that the Israeli media acts according to what he defined as "the Israeli mainstream," which he said supports the establishment of a Palestinian state.

LOS ANGELES (LALATE EXCLUSIVE) – Is Kandi Burruss joining Dancing with the Stars next season? While Kandi, ABC and BravoTV have yet to comment which Bravolebrity, if any, could be joining DWTS next season, at the moment it would seem likely that Kandi would be the likely Bravolebrity frontrunner followed by Kyle Richards and either Vicki Gunvalson or Tamra Barney.
ABC's DWTS castings took a turn several seasons ago when the show casted Lisa Vanderpump as its first BravoTV star. The RHOBH & Pump Rules star at the time had one of the digital footprints on social media of any Bravo personality. In fact, Lisa's appearance played a major storyline in the last RHOBH season with the "fake fainting" debate. Vanderpump has admitted to news that NeNe Leakes often calls her for advice on housewives shows. And shortly around the same time, Leakes inked her spot on DWTS, the second Bravolebrity to date.
ABC has not indicated if it would look to BravoTV again for another member next season. But if ABC's previous casting history is any indication, ABC has casted BravoTV personalities with the largest digital footprints. Among them are Kandi, Kyle, Vicki, Tamra and a few others.
But Burruss is widely perceived as one of the most popular housewives of the entire franchise, which would could correlate into record voting if Kandi joined the show. Kyle Richards, however, from her splits to gymnastic moves, has long indicated on RHOBH that she is exceptionally flexible. Finally Tamra Barney for many has been perceived as the fittest of any Bravolebrity currently because her enormous devotion to fitness and operation of her facility CUT Fitness. For now, Kandi seems the most likely, if she wants the gig. And if the judges don't give Kandi top scores, they will have to answer to Mama Joyce.

The Wall Street Journal published an article in the February 13 newspaper naming "The Best Places to Find Love." WSJ in conjunction with Facebook ranked over 50 U.S. cities to see where singles are looking for love and where they are finding it.
There were five categories
· Highest likelihood of relationship
· Most single females per single male
· Most single male's pre single female
· Lowest likelihood of relationship
· Lease likely for love
According to the WSJ, "many have tried using the U.S. census data to rank cities based on each one's singles population." Problem was Facebook had something the U.S. census doesn't have, real-time relationship status for over half of the American population. So, for a one-month period Facebook decided to rank the U.S cities based on the percentages of who went from "Single" to "In a relationship."
There was only one city that made two of the top five lists, Forth Worth, Texas taking the number four spot for "Highest likelihood of a relationship" and the number three spot for "Most single females per single male."
One of the most populated cities, New York City made only one list, number three in the "Lowest likelihood of a relationship."
So where does one have the highest chance of finding love? Colorado Springs, Co. according to the polls. The number one city for the least likely to fine love is San Francisco, Calif.
Detroit comes in at number 12 on the list. Colorado Springs, the city most likely to find love, also entered number 48 on the least likely list.

Give me a specific example of a time when you had to conform to a policy with which you did not agree.
Even though a good STAR story is the backbone of answering Behavioral Interview questions, here's one interview question where it's actually a good thing NOT to have a great story for. Asking you for an example of a time when you folded under pressure is a situational interview question that's even worse than "Describe a difficult situation and how you handled it." At least in that one you can come out looking like you've overcome something.
In this one, there's not any way to make yourself look good.
Because think about your choices with this question:
Did you not want to conform to the policy because it was unethical—but then you did? You may think of yourself as the martyr in that situation, but you'll just come across as someone who is OK with being unethical. That's not the image you want to project.
Did you not want to conform because you knew best? Saying that you knew more than your previous boss is a bad tactical error in an interview because then you're badmouthing them—and that's always a no-no. That answer sets you up as an adversary for your future boss even before she hires you—and she won't. Not with that attitude.
The truth is that the vast majority of directives, instructions, etc. at work you just won't be able to have any influence on. The few things that you can influence are still limited. You can try to communicate, grab more information, educate, and so on. But in the end, you're going to have to execute or you might lose your job.
But this question does get asked in interviews, so how do you answer it?
The interview wants to know how you would really react in a difficult situation. What's your communication style? Did you confront your boss? Did you avoid the whole discussion?
Your best answer probably sounds something like, "Sorry, I can't think of a time when that happened." If they press, you might say, "I might ask questions or express concerns over a policy because I believe it's part of my job to support the team and that includes spotting potential issues before they become actual problems…but in the end the decision belongs to my supervisor and I always respect that."
With that answer, you've shown you're a critical thinker, a team player, and respect the chain of command. What potential boss wouldn't be comfortable with that?

Problem Gambler Help - How to Chargeback Online Casino Gambling Charges And Live Your Life!
This article is only for people with an online gambling addiction or poker addiction. People who enjoy recreational gambling should know there are repercussions that will inhibit your ability to play poker or gamble online should you choose to do so in the future. Not to mention, a recreational gambler is able to stop - problem gamblers and compulsive gamblers don't.
Its no secret that I'm not a huge fan of online casinos or casinos in general. I was a problem gambler. I lost tens of thousands of dollars over the last few years to online gambling. Am I bitter about it? Sure! I'd like to see where my bank account would be today had I never started gambling or playing poker online. Sadly, that's just not the case, so hopefully, I can help prevent you making my mistake.
Before we dive in, I want to emphasize there is nothing for sale here. I just don't want you to go through the hell I've gone through for the past 7 years with online casinos, poker rooms, and online gambling. Though, if you want to throw a little cash my way, you can support the sponsors on my page by clicking the links to the right.
So, time to get to what I'm sure everyone is here for. You're a problem gambler like me. No matter how hard you try, you keep getting sucked back into the poker rooms and the online casinos. You play until your hundreds or thousands of dollars in the hole. Your brain finally comes around after the dopamine wears off and says, "Uh, yeah, that $1000 bucks you just lost, how are we gonna pay rent now?"
Online casinos have been taking advantage of compulsive gamblers in the United States for yeaarrrrs. Billions leave our economy every year. Here's how you can get a portion of it back.
You see, there was an Act signed by George W. Bush way back in 2006 called the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act, and what this Act did was it made it ILLEGAL for financial institutions to process online gambling transactions. You see, when you swipe your credit card at a gas station, that gas station sends a merchant code signal to the bank you got your credit card through. Let's say its Wachovia.
"Hello?", says Mr. Wachovia.
"Hi! I'm Mr. Gas Station. One of your account holders wants to buy some gas, is that ok?" - says Mr. Gas Station
"Sure, go right ahead! Let our account holder get some gas", says Mr. Wachovia.
-and the card holder is able to pump some gas.
The way that the UIGEA was supposed to be enforced is like this....
"Hello?", says Mr. Wachovia.
"Hi! This is Mr. Online Casino. One of your account holders wants to play some hold em poker at my site OnlineCasino.com . Can they get $1000 worth of chips?"
Now, let's look at what evil Mr. Online Casino really does.
"Hello?", says Mr. Wachovia.
"Hi, This is Mr. Online Cas....errr...uh...fluffy's pet boutique. One of your account holders wants to buy some ridiculously expensive jewelry for their dog. Can they make the purchase"
"Sure! Go Right Ahead!", Mr. Wachovia replies. *click*
"Moooohahahaha, another bank duped! Mooohahahaha!"
Ok, so my explanation was pretty juvenile - but it get's the point across, no? In order for the evil online casinos to take advantage of problem gamblers and get your money, they have to lie about what your money is for. Unfortunately, lying to big financial institutions is a big no, no because of a little thing called an "Unauthorized Transaction".
Check out your last credit card statement. That $500 in casino chips you bought with your visa credit card from onlinecasino.com probably looks something like this:
Charge Date Transaction Name Charge Amount
It wouldn't look anything like what it should:
Charge Date Transaction Name Charge Amount
Now, wait a second. You don't remember ever doing business with a company EREVE.NET for $499.90? So, you call your bank. "Yes, I'd like to report an unauthorized charge on my credit card! Lord Have Mercy!" "I don't know who this company is, EREVE.NET? Can you look at what merchant code they sent over when they processed this transaction, and tell me what its for?"
The bank rep will probably tell you something like, "It looks like this company is charging you for pet jewelry? Have you purchased anything from this company or know anyone who could have purchased from EREVE.NET recently?"
At this point, you say, "NO, Lord a mercy! Lord a mercy!" - because the truth is, you really haven't authorized anyone at EREVE.NET to charge your card. The company on your credit card statement is representing a completely different company than onlinecasino.com (and probably funneling the money to the casino). The bank will send you an affidavit to sign that states:
1) I have never done business with this company
2) I have no idea who this company is
3) I have no idea why they are charging my card, nor have I received any type of merchandise nor placed any order through this company.
Based on what I've been told by bank call center reps, it is 100% the truth to sign that affidavit saying those three things. The charge afterall isn't for onlinecasino.com. Many times, the charge amount is different, and the merchant description is something COMPLETELY different than an online casino.
Getting back gambling losses from online casinos can be a time consuming process. It took me about 6 weeks to get my funds back, but it was a couple grand. Money the online casino should never have gotten their grubby little paws on to begin with under UIGEA.
The Consequences of Chargebacks to Online Casinos & Poker Rooms
Here's why I recommend this only for problem gamblers - like me! When a chargeback takes place against a casino's account, and that casino is forced to cover the player's losses, the casino adds that player to a universal blacklist. The blacklist is a list of players who have charged back their losses to the casino. For the problem gambler, this is a God send. We can't control our impulsive behaviors as it is, so taking our information, and passing it along to all of the other casinos is a great way to cut off access to online gambling. If I don't have access to it, gambling isn't on my mind, nor on my wants. It's also a great way for the casinos to protect themselves, and know that the majority of the gamblers on their site are recreational gamblers - those who know their limits, rather than compulsive/problem gamblers - those who don't know their limits.
So, if you like playing poker online, chargebacks are NOT for you. If you are a problem gambler, this might be your ticket to getting back some of your money.

Did you ever do a chargeback to a casino that had a fax-back form on file for you? I'm wondering whether or not they will actually present that form to the credit card company?ReplyDelete

hey i had a question for you, after being very upset with bodog did some research and came across your article. i contacted my bank today and reported 5800 worth of unauthorized transactions from bodog and they are going to do an investigation to see if they can give me my money back. My bank is wachovia so I am not sure if you have heard of them crediting chargebacks or not. Anyway, is it easier to get a chargeback on a credit card vs a debit card bc i tried to contact bank of america and do the same thing for 2000 but because it was gambling related they would not investigate and told me to contact the gambling site. Also, wachovia told me if they could prove i had an affiliation with these third parties that bodog uses then they might not be able to credit my account. What are the chances do you think that they will give me my money back and how long does it take them to do it once you reported the transactions as fraudulent? I reported this today by the way so when do you think i can expect to hear from them? Thanks so much for the information on your site and I hope to hear back from you soon!ReplyDeleteReplies
hey frank did you actually get your money back let me know thanksDelete

This is a great website. I think it's perfect for people like me. I agree with some who don't agree with this practice but I think it's good in the degenerates cases like myself. Somehow I just believe I can make money doing this even though I've lost tens of thousands. My question though, I used to make large deposits, some of which were actually verified by my Bank - Chase. They would block my card and call me until I could verify the charges, but this hasnt happened in a long time. Now I don't have as much money as I used to and only make depo's of 25-40 dollars. But I depo like 700-1000 a month. It's pathetic, but do you think I can dispute all these charges? And how far back can I go?ReplyDelete
what if the bank verify the tranaction from that flower like company before you make another purchase for online casino?ReplyDelete

My 3 friends and I had a super fun time at the Ordway Performing Arts Center at the sing along Sound Of Music. The costume contest took much longer than anticipated because there were so many participants. I've never been to an audience participation movie but it was hilarious and we had a swell time singing along and yelling out loud in a fancy theater! The guests were young and old, mostly female but even the guys were yelling out funny stuff at the actors in this classic Julie Andrews movie. Great seats, first row balcony in the very center, couldn't have asked for more.

An exercise in concise writing
In December of last year I submitted a short manuscript, a "communication" that was merely 4 double-spaced pages long, to the Journal of Conchology. It went thru the usual peer review and got accepted, but on the condition that I would shorten it even further. The editor noted in his e-mail that communications usually had 1000 words, while mine had 1287 words.
So I revised the manuscript and, with a little help from Deniz, was able to bring it down to 1045 words, which subsequently satisfied the editor. I got rid of 242 words without taking any of the essential data out. Some of the methodological details did get the axe, but anyone familiar with the subject matter should be able to deduce how I may have done certain things. It's amazing how economical one can get with words when one needs to!
Here are some sentences from the original and the revised manuscripts.
During periods when rains are infrequent, fog interception and dew formation may become the main sources of water in the environment.
When rains are infrequent, fog interception and dew formation may become the only sources of water. (5 words shorter.)
The substrata with which a terrestrial gastropod is in contact must be sufficiently wet, the air humidity adequately high, and perhaps its food of a high enough water content so that the animal's daily activity does not result in a negative water balance.
The surface a gastropod is on must be sufficiently wet, the air humidity adequately high, and its food of a high enough water content so that daily activity doesn't result in a negative water balance. (8 words shorter.)
The microscopic examinations of the feces of both species indicated that they consisted mainly of brownish plant fragments and smaller fractions of microscopic fungal hyphae.
The feces of both species consisted mainly of brownish plant fragments and some microscopic fungal hyphae. (9 words shorter.)
The interesting thing is that the original version looked fine to me before I submitted it the first time. But now the revised version looks even better and I am wondering why I had so many extra words to begin with.
So now, I have a new rule for the present and future manuscripts: the last thing I do before I send a manuscript out is to try to delete at least 4 words from each full page.
Note added 6 April 2010: This manuscript has come out recently. See this post for details.

On this date in 1936, stage, film and television actor Madison Arnold was born in Allentown, Pa. Arnold graduated from Erasmus Hall and Brooklyn College. He earned a master's in European History from Columbia University and received scholarships to study abroad in Vienna and Berlin, where he did two years of postgraduate work in history, philosophy and languages. Arnold, named after James Madison as a tribute to religious freedom in America, said in Freethought Today: "I had a Jewish family background and have been an atheist as long as I can remember" (March 1989). Though he is best known for his television work, some film titles include "Escape from Alcatraz" (1979), "Xanadu" (1980), "The Lonely Guy" (1984), "Presumed Innocent" (1990), "The Turning" (1992), "White Lies" (1996), "Donnie Brasco" (1997), "Gracie" (2007) and "Monogamy" (2010). Some of his many television credits include: "Serpico" (1976), "Kojak" (1976-1978), "Baretta" (1978), "The Bionic Woman" (1977-1978), "Starsky and Hutch" (1976-1978), "Barney Miller" (1980), "Whiz Kids" (1980), "Hill Street Blues" (1985-1986), "Law & Order" (1999-2009), "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" (2000-2004) and "The Big C" (2010). Arnold, who has described himself as a "militant atheist" and even an "atheist of the hostile sect," says there was never a time when he was not an atheist. "As a kid I looked up and saw no god and I wondered where 'he' got such a large notebook to write down X's when I am bad as I was told he did" (Madison Arnold, quoted in Freethought Today, March 1989).
Madison Arnold
"I never accepted religion so I had nothing to reject as such. The history of 'Christiansanity' (my own coinage of which I am proud!) is so brutal of mind, emotions, freedom, progress, science and all that I hold precious, that by any standards of justice its leaders in almost any given period would be incarcerated for life, or worse!"
—Madison Arnold, quoted in Freethought Today, "Madison Arnold: Actor, Activist, Atheist," by Dan Barker, March 1989

And what of those mothers whose jobs take them to actual minefields? Continuing to cover wars after becoming a parent is a deeply personal decision for all journalists, but only the women who do so are either condemned or forced to account for their choices. When the Atlantic Monthly's Michael Kelly was killed in a Humvee accident in Iraq in 2003, commentary generally focused on the tragedy, not on any accusation that he was responsible for depriving his two young sons of their father. ABC correspondent Bob Woodruff, a father of four, suffered a traumatic, almost fatal brain injury as a result of an IED explosion in Iraq and was universally lionized upon his return. New York Times photographer João Silva, father of two, stepped on a mine in Afghanistan last October and lost both legs below the knees. Still recovering at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C., he told Terry Gross of NPR that his ordeal has been hard on his wife and children, but moments later he also told her he hopes to return to conflict photography, "once I get to the point that I can walk, I can run . . . if I feel that I can move quick enough . . . I would make decisions based on that." Gross expressed surprise that he would do so, given that he now has two prosthetic legs and that he was almost killed, but not once did she ask if he felt it would be fair to his family. In Shutterbabe, I shared my own thoughts on this subject: "It is also my opinion—and a bizarrely unpopular one, at that—that, be they male or female, journalists with children should not cover wars. Then again, I also don't think they should skydive or shoot heroin or drive without seatbelts."
Yes, I still hold the same opinion today, but it's only that: my opinion. I would never attempt to foist it on anyone else. Lara Logan, whose children are one and two years old, hinted at her own views in her 60 Minutes interview: "When I thought, I am going to die here, my next thought was, I can't believe I just let them kill me . . . that I just gave in and gave up on my children so easily; how could you do that?" Asked how she felt when she saw her children again, she replied, "I felt like I had been given a second chance that I didn't deserve. Because I did that to them . . . I came so close to leaving them, to abandoning them." If anyone reading this can think of a male journalist who has so publicly and honestly examined how his professional choices have affected his ability to be a good father, drop me a line.
Whether Logan's appearance on TV inspired sympathy or criticism, we'll never know, since the killing of Osama bin Laden that night knocked her—and every other piece of news—out of the headlines. But besides being brave and honest about her children, Logan spoke out on another important point that night. Asked why she was telling her story, she said, "One thing that I am extremely proud of . . . is when my female colleagues stood up and said that I'd broken the silence on what all of us have experienced but never talk about . . . That women never complain about incidents of sexual violence because you don't want someone to say, 'Well, women shouldn't be out there.' "
After I broke that silence myself in 2000, I was so traumatized by the public reaction that I retreated once again into silence. Inspired by Logan, I'm now trying to change that. Not bringing my attackers to trial two decades ago was the better choice for that particular juncture in my young life, and yet a part of me will always be ashamed of my inaction. Ditto for my public silence in the face of personal attacks in the press: What seemed right for my career and reputation felt morally corrupt, spineless. That's the problem with the abuse of power of any kind, whether physical or verbal. It turns a strong woman weak. And its flashbacks last a lifetime.

LG Optimus Pad coming to India in June
Announced at MWC 2011 as LG's first tablet, the Optimus Pad is currently available only in Japan, where NTT DoCoMo launched it last week.
The new tablet will, of course, be released in more countries soon, including the US (where T-Mobile re-branded the tablet to G-Slate), and India.
In India, the Optimus Pad will be available starting June.
An LG official told The Economic Times that the tablet might cost under 30,000 INR ($680), although this would depend "on currency valuation and import duties at the time of the launch."
The Optimus Pad runs Android 3.0 Honeycomb and features an 8.9 inch display with 1280 x 768 pixels, Wi-Fi, 3G, 3D video-recording, and a dual-core processor.

ST LOUIS (LALATE) – Tyga and his associate are not dead, and no deaths resulted from Tyga's concert shooting last night. But someone may have wanted Tyga dead, officials tell news. Multiple targeted gunshots were fired at Tyga's tour bus last night, local police confirm to news. In the end, his associate was shot along with two patrons.
Tyga's associate tweeted news "I'm not dead" after the shooting in Omaha, Nebraska last night. Honey C-aine, Tyga's associate and fellow rapper on YMCMB, was shot Monday evening. Video of the Tyga concert shooting released today shows the civil unrest and frantic reaction of patrons.
Tyga was on stage for his "Careless World" tour. During one moment, audiences members got into a dispute. Suddenly gunfire erupted, claims local news. Even garbage was thrown at the "Rack City" rapper, while on stage. A brawl later erupted.
Reports claim that Tyga fled the scene and jumped into his tour bus. As the bus drove away, a car allegedly chased the bus. A passenger or drive in the car then began to allegedly fire rounds of bullets at Tyga's tour bus.
Lt. David Sedlecek said, "Two people inside were hit by gunfire. A female was hit in the arm, and a male party had a graze would to his left hip."
The person injured was rapper Honey C–ine. Two other patrons were injured as well. Tyga issued a news statement today praising his own tour and bragging about its sold out dates. But he had few words for news about the targeted shooting. He said "[things] happens and as a Man I deal with those decisions I make….Let's be clear them was haters not fans. My fans love me I love them." He added "We hurt people that love us. Love people that hurt us." Honey simply told news "Got shot and I'm not dead."

Cave Aged
Quick View
EpoissesOne slurp of the intensely creamy paste of this French classic, and you'll know why we go to such lengths to ensure that this unctuous pasteurized cow's milk round, made in Burgundy, France, is so delightfully decadent. Tucked into a clever wooden box meant to ease transport to our fair shores, serving Époisses isn't nearly as difficult as aging it—slice a crusty baguette and dunk away, adding a glass of Burgundian white for terroir-driven perfection.

Quick View
DurrusWashed-rind, milky sweet bauble from Ireland from cheesemaker Jeffa Gill of County Cork. One of the last Irish farms using raw cow's milk, supplied by neighboring farms. Durrus is ripened 4-8 weeks before sending the cheese to us. With a gentle fruity flavor and creamy, semi-soft texture, mellow Durrus can take its place on any cheese devotee's board. Particularly good for dessert. Read More
Quick View
Pata de CabraPungent, tangy, aromatic and shaped like the leg of the animal whose milk it is made with. Yum! A washed-rind variety made in very small quantities. When young, it is fruity and refined with a robust ''kick'' at the finish. With a little extra age, it becomes more pungent and powerful. Read More

I have been playing piano for 5 months now and I have a problem where my fingers seem to land on multiple keys at once. This is really annoying and causes the music the sound as if I'm playing with my fists, even though I have really thin fingers. I'm just wondering if this is normal for a beginning player or if any expert here has advice over what I could correct to solve this.
The tempo you play or practice in is key!! Always start at the lowest comfortable tempo!! That way your fingers will get used to your piano. Then you can gradually increase the tempo based on your comfort level. I'm SURE you will notice a difference if you practice like this!
And one thing you should know is it's VERY normal for beginners!! This happens only if you play beyond the tempo your fingers are comfortable in.
Lastly some cliche philosophical words: Never lose patience! Learning is a long process and everybody learns at their own pace!! Your growth is w.r.t you and you only!!
When you say 'playing piano' I'm assuming you mean a real piano or synthesizer with full size keys, not a tablet or smartphone app, where this problem would be completely understandable!
I have to say, I don't recall ever having this problem - and I didn't own a keyboard with full size keys until I was a teenager.
However, there could be some other differences between our 'first five months' too:
You could be spending a lot of time looking at the music and not your hands. My personal goal was to be able to play my favourite songs, never to be able to read sheet music, and this is still true, none of my repertoire depends on having the music in front of me.
For a long time, for most songs, only my left hand would play chords and mostly simple major or minor triads. These are very simple to play, and I didn't really get bored or even consider playing anything more technical until I had mastered them.
I don't think I play any of these simple songs any more, I have moved on, however, the keyboard skills gained by mastering the simple songs are what allowed me to advance. You could be 'biting off more than you can chew', right now. You've been playing for 5 months, which is great, but perhaps you're expecting too much, trying to run before you can walk.
This is normal and is caused by hand and finger position. Ensure that your fingers are square to the middle of the keys. This may mean you need to turn your hands inward slightly to compensate for this, and this is a natural position anyhow.
With your hands positioned properly, ensure your fingers are curved as though you are holding an orange or medium-sized ball. If you play with flat, uncontrolled fingers, you'll also have the tendency to strike more keys than you should.
Regarding what was said here about looking at your hands. This is generally a no-no and it's best to look at the score. You'll eventually learn your way around the piano and your sense of distance will help you navigate. Now for the caveat. There are times when it's necessary to peak at the keyboard. Use this for when you have to reach out beyond what you normally do, or if the passage is terribly difficult.
Regarding memorization... Learn to read music well first, and by this I mean learn to recognize all notes, scales and basic chords. Once you do that, you can memorize which by the way is another ball of wax to figure out, and is something that should be discussed in another post.
It's absolutely a normal things for who is new to playing the piano I had this too when I was like you :)
all you need is :
1.play more slowly
2.work and train
3.choose pieces that is for your level of playing not harder
hope that helped :)
Some things to watch out for that may help to prevent this is to use proper fingering numbers that are comfortable to play the piece. Also, watch out for tempo. When you're a beginner you might want to play a little faster like more experienced players but just keep it simple. And it might also help to practice some technique exercises to gain more flexibility and make playing more comfortable.
