RACINE, WISCONSIN -- Do not use College Works painters for a Stucco house. They were inexperienced in preparing our Stucco Home for painting. Did not fully clean or brush the dirt off the stucco. Did not fill cracks or inspect the house prior to painting. They are not neat or careful. Did not caulk around window to prevent water intrusions.
Stucco has a lot of cracks, hairline and others. These crack were to be filled prior to painting. They did a few on one side of the house and found it very labor intense and choose not to do the whole house. All cracks must be filled prior to washing or painting for a good job to be done. We were very clear when we spoke to Karl about the work we expected to be done.
Without any advance notice on Friday a young man arrived at about 7:30 pm and began power washing our house. He did not come to our door to tell us he was going to work on our house. He just showed up and unhooked our garden hoses and hooked up his power washer. He did not move anything away from our walls. Just tried to sprayed around thing and avoid our open windows.. He did not power wash the 2nd story or front entry.
We had windows open and he did not care. He left by 8:30 pm and he did not reconnect our hoses. We were told by Karl work was going to start our house Monday. Karl, claims he told us work would start before. NO, NO we had work to do to clear areas for the painters on the weekend.
Two College Works (Jesse and Mercedes) arrived on Monday morning and started painting. They did not have a broom or long brush to finish cleaning the Stucco. They had a small hand held whisk broom which hardly, if every, left the plastic box it came in. Power wash from Friday night was a very poor job. Jesse acknowledge that the wash was very poor, but he painted right over the dirty stucco. I informed Jesse I could still see bleed though and told him a second coat is necessary as the paint they chose states for coverage; Karl stated it would. I asked why Mercedes wasn't back rolling with a thick nap roller. They ignore me and kept working.
Contract note: Fill all cracks - They choose not to fill all cracks, in fact only did a couple. Fill needs to cure before painting but they painted over and then told us they mixed they used to fill is coming out. Did not go back and repair. I personally talked to the young man to be sure all cracks were filled. He got on his phone to Karl and ignore my statements. They taped very few areas, and the amount of over spray on our black light fixtures and railings was totally unacceptable. They do not cover well if at all. All side of our house had over spray and all of our wall fixtures.
BE very specific on your contract. Karl verbally ensured us they would clean our house. Contract note: power spray as necessary – therefore they did not power spray the 2nd story nor brush or remove dirt or mildew from most of the house. They did not move anything that was along the walls, they spray around. We explain our house had not been sealed or painted for over 15 years and we needed it done right. Karl assured us it would be.
When choosing a paint be sure to state how the paint should be applied: brushed on rolled on or sprayed on with back brush. College Works chose to spray and not back brush. And did a very poor job applying. They missed or just did not paint behind things. If they could not spray it did not get painted. They did not have proper tools, like good paint brushes and rollers or pan to put paint in. They only used the cans of paint to get paint out of.
Paint quality: Karl recommended a very good paint. He emphasized how good the paint was and how it will cover and beautify our home. Contract note: one coat. Very strange when we saw the poor coverage we were getting we look up the paint. Sherwin ** states for coverage two coats are required. College Works would not honor what paint spec call for. We ended up with a lot of bleed through and missed areas that were not finished correctly. Finish is not uniform and cut line is so jagged it looks terrible.
During contract discussions, WE made Karl aware that several area of our home had stains. He assured me that paint would cover and we would be happy. We would not need to prime any areas. If you have stains on your Stucco insist on a stain covering primer be applied before that paint. Every day the two painters arrived whenever. We were never informed of a start or finish time. They did not introduce themselves. They just entered our yard and set up. One morning while we were still in bed we were woken by very loud music from a radio. We did not appreciate the loud music at 7:30 am.
Clean up was washing a small roller with our garden hose, spraying all the excess paint on our grass. I told them this was not good. The young girl said it is biodegradable and would not hurt our grass. OK, it does not hurt our grass, but we now have an area of white grass and brown grass. They did this every day and it looks terrible. They store what little equipment they had under a tarp in our yard.
Inspection per contact: We were to have a nightly walk around with Karl. This is THIRD night and we still have not had one. He is the team leader – shows up when Jesse, calls or text him with our concerns. I do not feel Karl is addressing any of our concerns. Listens well, nods well, and then ignores what we are telling. He is telling us this is normal and we will be happy before the job is done.
Thursday, work continues and no change to how they paint or protect our house or clean up. Now our front evergreens are sprayed white in various spots. Our porch railings are more white than black. Over spray is everywhere. We are told they have to do touch up and will clean our rails. They did not.
Thursday evening Karl shows up and ask how we like the job. Our reply was it looks terrible. He was stunned. We confronted him about the contract note: nightly walk around. Karl said why didn't we call him. Like we are to do his job for him and he was not concerned. It in the contact KARL. WE knew His painters were calling him daily with our concerns, because they stopped doing anything and hung out in the yard on the phone.
After the walk around they spent another couple of hours painting the unpainted areas and trying addressing our concerns. WE are not happy with all the work. We must do the make our house look like what we expected from College Works. They offered a small dollar adjustment for the over spray and agreed it was unacceptable. Karl took our check and left. Karl stated if we did not pay them they would put a 10 year lien on our house.
Hi, we are so sorry to hear about your experience. Your interaction with our company has certainly been unacceptable on our part and we'd like to do everything we can to make this right for you.

VANCOUVER -- It was time to have our 105-year-old house painted again after 12 years. We decided that we would give a college student the opportunity to do the work having had great success with another company called College Pro painters. When the student came to our door from College Works Painting based out of Irvine CA, we thought "let's give them an opportunity." Turns out the company is run like a pyramid. They do not provide adequate paint training and send teams out into the workforce green, without proper tools.
Some of the reasons for why things were being done were so far off the mark we had to finally say STOP before more damage is done to the house. What took our previous workers 3 weeks to complete once College Works arrived we were told they would be here for 4 days which included pressure washing, scraping, priming, and a spray coat so thin you could see the bare wood underneath.
We were told that they pressure wash and scrape and prime right away because the wood is soft from the pressure wash and the paint scraping is easier. As they gouged their way through the soft wood I couldn't believe my eyes and a few hours later came home to find they had primed the wet wood and an hour or two later sprayed the paint.
The next day told the story. Paint was blistering, and bubbles under the old paint had formed. To cut our losses we had a stop order and have been forced to find someone qualified to paint and repair damage done by inexperience students. I don't blame them entirely but College Works Painting is the one that should be held accountable for taking student money and having them invest in this business.
Yes, they are student investors whose source of income is based on speed not a job well done. I can only say that if anyone in Canada or US is considering using College Works I say be careful and buyer beware because you are not going to get what you think you are. We were lead to believe the house was going to be brushed and they came with a sprayer that holds one quart at a time nothing of commercial quality.
Think twice before you hire the student and do you due diligence when it comes to researching the company. You are not going to get what you have signed on the dotted line for. Reviews for this company are strictly from investor perspective and customer reviews are non-existent. In summary, sales pitch great you know--help a student, quality of work in the basement.

COLORADO SPRINGS, COLORADO -- This College Works Internship, is one unlike any other. They train you to run a business. Now, obviously if you don't have the work ethic to run a business then you shouldn't be running one. Also this internship isn't for the average person, but it fits perfectly for others. I would do this internship again given the opportunity. They also plan out an end of the year trip to Cancun, Mexico, as well as fun contests throughout the year to win for the summer time. I have had a wonderful experience with this internship and I have learned life lessons from it. I am so grateful to cherish this experience with running a business.
HOLLY SPRINGS, NORTH CAROLINA -- Exterior painting on our home into 2nd week. Already complained to supervisor. 1 painter who knows what he is doing is telling 2 college kids what to do. We have had to point out spots they missed as they were about to paint over spots that had not been power washed yet. We are ready to have them be done and leave. We paid more than standard job should take just because we thought it was a good deed we were doing to help college kids.
AUSTIN -- I was an intern in the spring and summer of 2014. I'll admit, it was not walk in the park. The first note to take is that the College Works Painting internship is an investment into your future. From the start, each weekend I was out knocking on doors in the Austin area while my friends were out having fun. Through the week, I spent hours lining up my weekend schedule, and making sure clients and I were on the same page about how their personal estimate would go.
I would also try to understand some of their concerns about the company or the quality of work; this is an understandable concern because, come on, you're a 20-something year old college kid who doesn't have it all figured out... yet. All of my clients were very well-to-do Austin residents, and my attitude as a young professional was very clear to them.
During the summer (production season) I had trouble finding the right painters to do the work. My first crew was spectacular, but they ended up finding work closer to their homes in San Marcos. The endless training of painters seemed daunting. I had already thought about quitting (like the countless hundreds who already did) during the spring, but I knew I'd regret it. I buckled down and eventually found a diamond in the rough. My lead painter was a 19 year old sophomore at UT who had never touched a paint brush in his life.
* This is for potential clients and potential interns alike: The best painters are those taught with patience and detail. Experienced painters often cut corners to cut costs, while new painters only know what the intern has taught them... so you're able to built their skill set from level 0.
This guy ended up painting over half of my houses with the help of guys that HE ended up training for me. I was able to manage multiple other job sites in the Georgetown, Cedar Park, West and South Austin areas. My branch was the highest revenue-producing branch in Texas at $100,000+ and I also completed the internship with multiple positive online reviews, the award for excellent customer service (my clients cared about me and I cared about them), and I was intern of the year. Oh yeah, Cancun was a blast.
The skills I learned at College Works Painting are still paying dividends. As the "subject" line states, running a branch for CWP got me an internship working for a media production group dealing with private companies whose annual revenue exceeds $20 million dollars. My experience as a manager was the single resume bullet point that the interviewer asked me about. Now, you tell me what 20-something year old can hold their own in a room full of CEO's and multimillionaires... this one.
More than anything, CWP has enabled me to restore balance in my life. It taught me to plan time for people that matter, it challenged my ambition to succeed, and best of all- and likely the least 'talked' about benefit- it trained me to listen and control the tempo of conversation.
"It's not for everyone," is the most accurate description of CWP. There is a reason thousands of interns are recruited every year and only a few hundred finish. College Works isn't just an internship, it's a platform for you to start successful habits in your life. I encourage you to think hard about making the commitment. Ask yourself what you're made of. Think about the time you'll have to spend giving it all you've got.
Think about the sacrifice you're going to have to make and some of the people you'll have to disappoint (not clients, FRIENDS that don't understand why you're doing it). Then, think about how different your life will be once you've earned all of the intangible skills and all of the respect from your peers and clients. If it seems worth it to you, then step up and accept it.
PHOENIX, ARIZONA -- We have a serious customer service and vandalism issue with this company. We worked with a young man who was originally supposed to paint our house named **. Due to delays with our HOA, he had to give the job to a man named ** when it came time to complete the painting job. During this time, they lost our agreed upon and HOA-approved paint sample. Once they figured it out, they did a good job, but removed several of fixtures from our house, including pigeon-proofing spikes that we had paid another company to install years before.
They did not ask before removing these spikes, and ** had told us they could paint over them (which is best so that they remain blended in with the house). So, not only did they remove them without permission, break several of them in the process, but they then stated they could not put them back on because they did not have the right glue.
Long story short, after weeks of push back from the company, speaking with a manager named **, as well as a manager named ** who had told me personally that they would take care of it, the only way to get it done is for US to pay out of pocket for the glue so that they themselves could put the, now broken, pieces of these spikes back on our house. Oh, and did I mention that by removing these spikes, they have now negated our warranty with the pigeon-proofing company???
I'm very pleased with the paint job itself, but the lack of respect for our property and subsequent rude and unethical treatment when all we asked is that they fix this mistake is absolutely unacceptable. Shame on you College Works! We will be reporting this to the Better Business Bureau.
College Works has now corrected the issue, had the pigeon spikes replaced, and we are now happy with the results.
Trisha and Joshua, we are very happy that you are satisfied with the quality of the paint job. We're very disappointed that the experience was so terrible though. What can we do to help you remedy this situation? Please do not hesitate to contact us at 888-450-9675.
AUSTIN, TEXAS -- It was my freshman year at the University of Texas at Austin when I first heard of College Works Painting. I actually thought it was some research internship when I first received a call to go to an information session. It wasn't. My first reaction to the internship was negative since I was a science major. Why not just do research? Also it seemed like it was very difficult and time-consuming. Then I started to think about what I wanted to do, and where I wanted to go.
One of the things I realized is that when it came to anything other than math and science, I was pretty bad at it. With dreams as big as I had, I was going to need two things: work experience, and the ability to deal with people. From what I could tell, even though it was never something I imagined I'd ever be doing, running a painting business for the summer would get me those two things. So I went ahead and got the internship.
I remember the internship as being a constant rush and I remember being out of my comfort zone 95% of the time. It felt like there was always something to get done, it was kind of exhilarating. Even though most of the things I was doing made me extremely nervous, such as doing a sales presentation without prior sales experience, I found myself learning them pretty fast. I realized that when you work at a fast pace, and have a lot to get done, you become really good at things very fast.
Never before had I felt pushed in this way, so this was the first time I had learned that lesson. By the end of the internship, after a ton of hard work and lots of paint, I had achieved what I set out to find and more. I had work experience, and the ability to deal with people.
Honestly, I would not recommend this internship to most people. Here's why: not everyone is ready to grow up and start working hard. If you are ready for a challenge, and you have the maturity to think long-term about your future. Then do it. However, if you are scared about missing out on partying, school clubs, and the "college experience," then don't do it; not because you won't ever party, I partied a lot, but because you are not mature enough for it.
EUGENE, OREGON -- My experience with College Works has overall been incredible. When I happened upon the internship 2 years ago I knew it was unlike any other internship I've happened upon. I immediately was intrigued. I know there are reviews out there of bad experiences and such from interns and it was certainly the single most challenging thing I have ever done, don't get me wrong. However, This type of internship sparked my interest because I knew if I completed something as challenging as this I would be proud to say that I have done it.
The way I look at things, anything worth doing is going to be a challenge... that is what makes it worth it. My first year I ran an $80,000 business with many bumps along the way and let me tell you, I was not very good at this business to start out. Typically what ends up happening is college students find out that it is going to be challenging and give up when the going gets tough...I didn't. I stuck it out! Passed every challenge and each struggle and was eventually able to say that at 19 years old I was able to run a very successful $80,000 business and made 38% profit! Now that isn't typical.
The average is around 20% but I was diligent with making sure I knew where every penny was spent and spent countless hours on my job sites ensuring my guys were as efficient and quick as possible. This last year I came back to the company and ran a $104,000 business and learned even more! Personally, even though I had some struggles along the way it was honestly one of the best decisions I ever made. I learned so much about myself and how to run a business and I wouldn't have given that up for anything! I currently am a DM in Eugene, OR and I am now helping to give other students a similar experience I had.
The more lives I can touch and impact, and help them realize that they can do anything that they work diligently for I will consider myself successful. I am thoroughly happy with my experience and highly encourage individuals with immense ambition and drive to do the internship and be ready for a life altering experience!
COLUMBUS, OHIO -- Through the interview process, the company warned me that this was going to be one of the hardest things I had ever done but also one of the most rewarding experiences. They were completely right on both counts. I came into this company with absolutely zero sales or management experience and I definitely struggled at the start. However, as I progressed, I began to realize that I didn't struggle because of a lack of support or talent; all of my difficulties with booking work and marketing my business stemmed from a lack of effort on my part.
College Works Painting worked very hard to make sure I had the tools necessary to succeed. I had weekly meetings with my District Manager as well as frequent meetings with the VP of Sales and Marketing and even meetings with the CEO. With all of this help, though, they can't do the work for you. They would frequently put the problems and solutions squarely on my shoulders, which got frustrating for me at certain points.
There were a lot of times when I wished they would just tell me what to do, but instead they would ask "how are you going to solve this?" and "what could you do next time to avoid this situation and be more successful?" I was expected to come to every meeting prepared with what I wanted to talk about, having a clear handle on the strengths and weaknesses of my branch.
While it was frustrating and difficult, I am so thankful for the opportunities, skills and lessons I took from this internship. In the professional world, there is no one there to baby you through your job. Sure, you get training and people will (hopefully) be there to help you when you need it, but you will not be successful and progress in your career if you do not take ownership and responsibility for your work.
I exited college and was hired directly into management. I am now an Operations Manager for a nationwide management consulting firm and I owe most of my success to the experience and knowledge I gained through College Works Painting. They aren't lying to you; this will be incredibly challenging AND incredibly rewarding. I got to go to Cancun, Mexico 3 times, California twice and Park City, Utah twice as well as countless weekend retreats.
I got to make great money as a college student and build great relationships along the way. But, ultimately, my greatest reward was in the skills transferred and mindset instilled in me by CWP: Be your best in everything you do.
First Impressions: I should have known there was going to be trouble ahead when the branch manager for College Works Painting, was a day late for our first meeting at my home in March. College Works Painting (and Student Works Painting owned and operated under parent National Services Group) recruits college students to essentially run franchises in towns across the country. These students are responsible for hiring workers and making sales of their painting services to businesses and residents in their area.
This initial meeting was supposed to be an introduction, presentation of the work College Works Painting does, and a 2 hour walk-around followed by presentation of an estimate/quote to paint my house. The branch manager assured me that she would have a 2-week intensive training and I wouldn't be required to make a final payment until I was completely satisfied with the results.
A couple days after this first meeting the branch manager called to see if I was ready to sign a contract for the job because the summer was booking up quickly with jobs. I felt pressured into making my decision hastily, but having worked my way through college and paying my own tuition and expenses, I appreciated young people willing to work hard. A week later I signed a contract to have the body of the house painted (no doors or window trim), and I asked to have the work done in late July because we were expecting a new baby in the last part of June and a vacation planned the first of August.
Poor Communication: In April a College Works Painting sign was placed in my front yard. I never heard from College Works Painting again until early July when the branch manager said she'd like to start the job. I explained we agreed that work would start in late July. The next 2 months were a series of missed and late appointments. The branch manager never came to the house at times scheduled, often arriving an hour late or not at all. I frequently left work early to be home on time for scheduled meetings only to wait an hour or more, and sometimes no one would come at all.
At the first meeting just before work was to begin in late July the branch manager, my wife, and I discussed what color to paint the house. There was a semi-transparent stain already on the cedar clapboard siding. The branch manager recommended using a solid color acrylic stain because it would last longer than a semi-transparent. She said she would come the next day to put a small test patch on an inconspicuous area of the house to show what the color would look like. No one came the next day.
Test Patch: 3 days later the test patch was applied while we were away for the weekend. The inconspicuous area where College Works chose to do the test patch was 3 feet by 1 foot right next to the front door. The solid color stain looked like a dark brown patch of paint and didn't look at all like a stain. Due to the location of the test patch, we couldn't now opt to use a semi-transparent stain as was currently on the house because the dark brown patch would be an obvious blemish and eye-sore.
Our only option now was to have the entire house painted. College Works Painting agreed and said it would change the cost, an increase of $1300 above the original quote. I knew it would take more work and materials to paint instead of stain, and despite not having the option to stain the house anymore, we agreed and selected a light green color for the body of the house. Still no doors or window trim would be painted.
Work Begins: On August 1, a worker came to the house to begin the prep work taping and covering the windows and doors with plastic. The worker finished covering about half the windows, enclosing the windows on the living room, kitchen, dining room, and porch. I called the branch manager that morning to discuss her plans and when the job would be finished. College Works Painting didn't call back. The following day no one came to the house and the branch manager didn't return my call until that night.
No one came back to the house to finish the prep work for a week. This was August and we were baking inside the house because the windows were covered with plastic. On August 6 College Works Painting returned my phone calls which I had been placing twice a day for four days to find out what was happening and when the house would be painted. The branch manager said she would have the house finished in two days. I explained that we were going away for a vacation the next day and she should have the house done in plenty of time before we return seven days later.
On August 13 we returned from vacation and found one worker at the house applying the first coat of paint. All the windows were still covered over two weeks later. The branch manager promised the job would take no more than four days when we signed the contract. The painter got about half the house painted with a first coat of paint, but couldn't continue because the sprayer was malfunctioning, and there was no ladder left for him to reach the second floor. That night I noticed that College Works Painting was not using a primer, a critical error because they were painting a light color over a dark stain and because cedar siding is known to stain paint over time as tannic acids bleed out of the wood and through the paint.
The next two days no more work was done on the house, and the branch manager did not return my phone calls. I was forced to call the College Works Painting headquarters and voice my complaints. On August 16 the branch manager called me and said she would have the first coat and the entire second coat finished by the end of the day. This seemed unbelievable, but I was happy to see such a flourish of work being done after such a long wait and so much frustration. We scheduled a walk-around to review the work at 6:30 that evening.
That evening I got home and saw a disaster. The paint was streaked and splotchy around the entire house. There was paint splatter on the driveway, plants, and brick patio all around the house. There were several spots on the house that still showed the original brown color, and every door and window frame had been dripped on or sprayed with paint. The branch manager arrived 30 minutes late at 7:00, and the first thing she said when she saw the house was, "This looks terrible." We walked around the house and I pointed at all the touch-ups needed and paint damage to the patio and landscape.
She said College Works would be back the next day to fix the touch-ups, but the streaked and splotchy paint was the result of conditions of the wood siding that she could not have foreseen, and I would have to pay for another coat of paint if I wanted it fixed. I stated that I had contracted College Works Painting to paint my house. At no time, and nowhere in the quotation or contract was there a specification for 2 coats of paint only.
No one came the next day as promised to fix the problems, but the branch manager came that night and said I would need to pay another $800 to fix the streaked and splotchy paint with another coat of paint. I explained again the contract was to paint the house to my complete satisfaction, not to apply 2 coats of paint.
College Works said they would not do anymore work on the house, not even correct the damages to the landscaping, window trim, and doors, until I made a payment, contradicting our original contract to pay when the job was finished. At this point the branch manager told me she didn't think I would ever pay. I explained that we have a contract to which we are both bound and that I would pay but not until the job is finished as written in the contract written by College Works Painting.
College Works never came back to finish the job after this, and I incurred approximately $1500 in expenses and time to repair the damages to doors, window trim, landscape and patios caused by College Works painters.
During the following 2 months the paint on the house began to be stained by the tannic acids bleeding from the cedar siding through the latex paint. I spoke with 5 different experienced professional painters and they all said that any experienced painter would have known that to prevent this from happening with cedar wood siding, a stain blocking primer needed to be used first followed by the latex paint. College Works Painting did not use a primer, instead they only applied 2 coats of latex paint.
The House Still Looks Bad: Eventually College Works Painting took me to small claims court to force a payment from me despite admitting on the claim that they had not finished the job. The settlement awarded me reimbursement of the $1500 in materials and time I had put into repairing many of the damages caused by College Works Painting, and College Works was required to return to my house to remove the stains on the paint, then prime, and repaint the areas of cedar bleeding. They were also required to apply more paint where "lap-lines" showed from paint application (the streaks).
The problems with splotchy paint appearance are still not resolved, but having had enough frustration I let College Works Painting finish the work by correcting the cedar bleeding problems that we could see. I paid the balance due for the job minus the $1500 owed to me for my expenses, and learned my lesson about hiring unprofessional workers. Time will tell if the cedar bleeding will be a problem in areas that weren't repainted, and I will repaint the areas showing streaks on my own to insure it is done right and put this behind me.
Final Warning: My final warning and words of wisdom gained through this experience are that if you want unprofessional results, hire unprofessional painters. I did, and that's what I got. I recommend hiring only experienced, professional painters when the time comes to improve or maintain the exterior appearance of what is likely the biggest investment you have. There are probably some college kids who can do a good job painting houses, but it's not a risk worth taking without seeing their previous work.

My laboratory to study human nature, particularly children and the adults who care for them, is Chicago's public transit system. Traveling northbound last week on the Pulaski bus on two consecutive days, I witnessed two mothers, with polar opposite maternal styles, their children and the outcomes.
The first mother traveled with two daughters, whom I guess were four and five years old. The girls giggled in the seat in front of me as their mother sat across the aisle. Something annoyed the mother who came over to stand beside them. She told the nearest one to "Shut up." She wasn't getting results which brought more "shut ups" and "I'll give you something to cry about." One of them dropped, or threw, the sippy cup on the floor. The other cried. And so began their familiar destructive dance which may have played out for generations.
The following day a mother boarded with a child riding on her back in something like a sling, a length of fabric tied in front. She settled into her seat, untying the fabric so that the child, who was probably two or three could sit down. The child fussed in a manner that could have escalated into a tantrum. "What's wrong? What do you want?" In the special communication between mother and child, she discerned that he wanted to stay tied on her back. Accommodatingly, she stood to rearrange the fabric and, as he contentedly settled in, she stroked his hair and kissed his forehead.
We like to think that women inherently know how to care for a child. Although that may be true in the animal kingdom, for human beings it is a dangerous fantasy. Especially in the beginning, motherhood is a bewildering journey, requiring engagement with a helpless person who communicates primarily by crying. The illuminating book, The Goddess Within, discusses the feminine archetypes and their characteristics. Women of the Demeter archetype are born nurturers, with an instinctive knowing of what children need. But women of all archetypes are mothers, each with their own style and approach. If the mothers of young mothers were clueless, they will have no idea how to nurture their own children. This can manifest in an extreme need for control with no understanding of human nature. Many children become confused, fearful, and angry with very low self esteem.
Given a mother's immense influence, with lifelong consequences for children and society, nurturing these families should be Job One. The human spirit is remarkably fragile and remarkably resilient. In every life, painful incidents become lodged in our psyches which, unless examined and reprocessed in a healthy way, can have corrosive effects. To compensate, we often develop coping mechanisms that we are completely unaware of and cause us to repeatedly trip over the same scenario, with no awareness that it is a re-run of our own making.
As the economy ratchets down, with no idea how low it can go or where it will end up, my goal is to beat the drum for healthy families and healthy communities and to facilitate gatherings to explore alternatives that support us in this uncharted environment.

Legendary U.S. goalscorer Brian McBride spoke with me on Monday about his amazement with U.S. National Team coach Jurgen Klinsmann cutting MLS all-time leading goalscorer Landon Donovan from the World Cup roster. McBride, the third-highest all-time leading goalscorer (30) for the U.S. National Team, emphatically said he'd put Donovan on the roster because of his ability to change games.
Hall of Famer McBride scored goals in two of the three different World Cups in which he played (1998, 2002, 2006) and led EPL Fulham in goalscoring in his tenure there. McBride also captained the 2008 U.S. Olympic Team and played for the Columbus Crew, Fulham F.C. and Chicago Fire before retiring in 2010. Now, McBride works as a FOX Sports analyst, a forward coach for the Chicago Fire, and with Allstate offering surprise local soccer clinics with Good Hands® F.C. in under-served communities around National Team games.
Sunday night, Donovan broke the MLS all-time goalscoring record with his 136th tally in a two goal and assist performance for the LA Galaxy in the 4-1 victory over Philadelphia Union.
LE: What's your take on Klinsmann cutting Landon Donovan from the World Cup roster?
McBride: I can tell you why Landon should be on the team, but Jurgen is the coach and his decision – I was amazed. It was a bold decision, but he's the coach. You hire a man to make to make decisions and he certainly made a strong one leaving Landon off.
I'd have [Donovan] on the team because he provides – you can talk about experience, but for me it's more his ability to change games. He's scored some big goals in the history of U.S. Soccer, but he's also been someone who can come on and basically win a game for you, whether it's pace with running with the ball at his feet or understanding situations and making the right pass or right run at the right time. Landon has shown that he has all that and that's why I'd have him be a part of it.
LE: Will his absence affect the USA's chances in Group Play at World Cup?
McBride: I hope not, I'd hope that doesn't come to fruition. One thing you can say is that this group is very, very difficult. The chances of coming out of it are already very slim in that it's the Group of Death. But that's why you play these games and you're a part of a special thing like the World Cup because it's the opportunity to show that you belong and that you're ready and able to get out of the group. Is it made more difficult [without Donovan]? Yeah, I think so, but [Klinsmann] has decided to go with youth and rely on inexperienced players without Landon being there.
LE: How much input does U.S. Soccer have in determining the National Team roster or is this decision all on Klinsmann's shoulders?
McBride: Yeah, this is Jurgen's decision. There's one thing you can definitely say regarding Jurgen, is he's his own man who makes his own decisions, he's very confident. When asked about things, he always gives you an answer. So, this is definitely a decision made by him and no one else - him and his coaching staff. I'm not going to say he doesn't take input from his coaching staff, but as far as the bureaucracy and higher-ups in U.S. Soccer that aren't a part of his coaching staff, no, they will not be a part of this decision.
LE: There's been overwhelming public support for Donovan since he was cut and his two goal and assist performance Sunday night spoke for itself. Might Klinsmann bow to public opinion and find a way to get him back on the roster?
McBride: No, I don't think that's something Jurgen would do. I do think that if there's an issue injury-wise, that he'd call Landon right back in. I know Jurgen a little bit and have had a chance to talk with him quite a few times and spent some time with him and he's not a vindictive person. It's not a situation where he won't look at the whole situation. I think he decided what he wanted to get out of the group, Landon wasn't going to - I don't want to say help him - but put the team where he wanted to be and that's the part that's also very surprising, but there's no other reason why he's leave him off the roster. So, if there's an injury I'd assume he'd be the first player called – any scenario with a midfielder or forward injury.
LE: You're the third highest-ever goal scorer for the U.S. Men's National Team. When you get to that elite level, what kind of pressures do you face?
McBride: When you get to the professional level you have pressure. You need to perform every time you step on the field and if you don't, there's the possibility of not taking part in the next game. In regards to the National Team, it means not taking part in the next game.
LE: You're an attacking coach for the Chicago Fire now, right?
McBride: I took on a part-time position with the Chicago Fire as far as the more attacking side of the game, is what I'm involved with Frank Yallop's staff. He's got a great staff with C.J. Brown and Clint Mathis and it just worked really well with my schedule with FOX, being pretty much on hiatus with the soccer side of things until late July. It's just a good fit, it's something I've wanted to do, the next step on the coaching side. Living in Chicago, where my family is, it's just a good thing.
LE: Do you think you're making a difference there?
McBride: I think it's been too early. I hope to bring something good to help the team - positive information, techniques that will help the team and help them grow, but I've only had four training sessions with them. It is a small position, but it's a position that gives me the opportunity to get my feet wet on the coaching side and also try and help build the organization up.
LE: Why isn't Mike Magee isn't getting call-ups for the National Team?
McBride: Unfortunately for Mike, his chance came in January. There's so many times that really good players get injured at the wrong time. It was really his chance to show Jurgen he belonged and unfortunately, you don't want to see it happen to anybody – when it comes time for their chance, for them to get an injury. That's not allowed Jurgen to see him the way a lot of people see him and I see him.
LE: What do you enjoy most about the your coaching clinics with Allstate?
McBride: The kids, seeing the smiles on their faces. Any time you get a chance to coach, you get to see the joy that kids have just playing the game. The added bonus with Allstate's Good Hands FC is that after the coaching side and the fun, they get to go home with new uniforms, balls and bag. The joy and happiness you see on their face after they know they're going to have a whole new kit, it's pretty amazing. It's special to be a part of it.
LE: Some of these kids come from disadvantaged backgrounds, right? Have they ever had this kind of gear before, all new stuff?
McBride: No, and it's nice stuff, top-of-the-line gear. The jersey and the uniforms they get are also branded with the sponsor, Allstate. Not many kids have sponsors on their kits and it makes it look even more authentic. For the most part, they would not have the ability to purchase a lot of this stuff. It's a joy to be able to help out with their progression in soccer.
LE: How does Allstate pick the teams that get the free clinic and gear?
McBride: I believe that there's a group at Allstate to determine who is in need, what community is in need most and then they try to organize it from there. It's something they do background on, not something where they just pick a city or town that's nearby, it's very much chosen because we want to help out whoever is in most need.
LE: When you were a young player, what most inspired you to stay involved with the game and reach upwards?
McBride: For me, the most standout aspect of soccer when I was young, was that it was with my friends. The friendships I made from being a part of those teams last till this day even. Of course, I was a very active kid and running around was always a lot of fun to me, but the biggest part was the friendships and the team aspect.
LE: What are your first memories of the World Cup and how did it impact you?
McBride: My first memories of the World Cup were pretty late on. It was the Mexico World Cup where Germany was playing Argentina and we had a game at the same time and people were outraged. I remember thinking, "Wow, this is a pretty big deal," and that was my first memory. Soccer wasn't on TV very much, at least in Chicago in the area I was from. The realization that it was a big deal was pretty amazing, but late on in my soccer playing youth.Allstate will surprise local soccer clinics in San Francisco, NJ and Jacksonville, FL with a special "Good Hands® F.C." soccer clinic coached by one of the best players in American soccer history. McBride will host a team practice, and Allstate will present each player with new gear and tickets to the upcoming matches.
Note: Allstate will surprise local soccer teams with clinics in San Francisco, NJ and Jacksonville, FL around the upcoming USMNT games with a special "Good Hands® F.C." soccer clinic coached by McBride and Allstate will present each player with new gear and tickets to the National Team matches.

In order to augment revenues, some networks and studios are working with advertisers and including products or what amount to product endorsements into the actual content of programs. So-called 'product integration' forces content creators to become ad writers.
As a result of years of lobbying and pressure from the WGAW, the Federal Communications Commission recently announced a process to develop rules for disclosure when products are integrated into content.
Product Integration Facts:
In July the Federal Communications Commission announced that they are considering new rules that would require networks to disclose to viewers when products have been integrated into programming. The WGAW has held that the only foolproof way to make sure that viewers are aware that they are being advertised to is to tell them, during the program, by running a crawl whenever an integrated product is mentioned/referenced or exhibited. To learn more about the WGAW's position: read our filing to the FCC.
Read the 2005 White Paper from the Writers Guild of America, titled "Are you SELLING to me?" (.pdf)
Read the letter from WGAW President Patric Verrone to FCC Chairman Kevin Martin (.pdf)
Listen to what our members have to say about product integration.
On September 20, 2007, Writers Guild of America, West President Patric M. Verrone testified before the Federal Communications Commission asking them to consider adopting a rule requiring networks to clearly disclose to viewers when advertisers have paid to insert branded advertising and other forms of product integration into television programs.

In the XP Visualizer, there are ligands for which the H-bond pair term is zero but their H-bond table cell is still enabled and yellow dotted lines are shown on the structure in the Workspace. Why is this? Is it due to a difference between Glide and Maestro definitions?
Charged-neutral H-bonds do not receive a GlideScore reward; only neutral-neutral and charged-charged H-bond interactions are rewarded. This different treatment of different types of H-bonds arose from our observation that a charged-neutral term does not help enrichment in our parameter-optimization studies on a large set of screens.
The H-bond criteria in Glide actually are more permissive than in Maestro. Glide gives partial rewards for H-bonds with lengths and angles deviating significantly from "ideal" (1.65 Å H-A distance, 180° D-H..A angle). The correlated, hydrophobically-enclosed H-bonds (which can be viewed with the XP Visualizer) have slightly different rules again.

If you've been traveling around the US lately, you'll noticed that the mercury's been climbing, which can be very pretty for the local flora, but can ratchet up the problems for your skin. Oiliness, breakouts, irritation: they're all very tricky to get rid of. Harsh products that strip your skin only serve to make things worse. Sebamed can help with all of that! I was very happy to be hosted to experience it.
The Clear Face Cleansing Foam pumps out light as air, so there's no dragging and pulling to apply it. Unlike most deep cleansing products, it leaves quite an emollient, soft feel on the skin. It doesn't really have a pronounced scent. Here's what they say about it:
Sebamed CLEAR FACE Antibacterial Cleansing Foam ensures the gentle and effective deep cleansing of the pores to combat pimples, blackheads and skin impurities. The mild soap and alkali free wash active substance removes excessive sebum, desquamation and dirt particles without drying the skin. The new coconut oil-based antibacterial active ingredient Montaline C40 combats bacteria and helps prevent the formation of new pimples. Vitamin B5 supports the natural regeneration of irritated skin. Sebamed CLEAR FACE Antibacterial Cleansing Foam is adjusted to the skin's natural pH value of 5.5, protecting and supporting the biological barrier function of the skin's acid mantle to help prevent new pimples from forming.
Prevents the formation of new pimples.
Refines the complexion, provides a matte finish and prevents shine.
Soothes with Panthenol and encourages the regeneration of irritated and inflamed skin.
The pH value of 5.5 stabilises the natural protective acid mantle. Has a particularly gentle cleansing action.
When your skins has gone haywire, it's easy to think that you don't want to put anything on . . . but that's just wrong thinking. You still need a moisturizer. Their Moisturizing Face Cream feels rich, yet whipped to the touch. Upon application, it feels light and absorbs. It's a no-nonsense formula, giving you moisture -- not grease. Here's what they say about it:
Developed by dermatologists, this rich, nourishing moisturizer is suitable for the most sensitive of skins. Non-greasy and quickly absorbed, it deeply hydrates for noticeably softer, healthier skin. Fortified with soothing vitamin E to naturally guard against free radicals which can cause premature aging.
The Science Behind Healthy Skin
Every Sebamed product is meticulously formulated to a pH balance of exactly 5.5 - precisely the pH of healthy skin. This is essential in maintaining your skin's natural hydrolipid barrier against environmental stress. Any other pH level, such as found in soap may leave your skin open to break-down and deterioration. Discover what 150 clinical studies have already shown -- pH 5.5 is vital for healthy skin.
Here are some summer skincare tips:
Mistake: Applying Makeup with Dirty Brushes. This may seem innocent, but applying makeup with the same brush month after month causes dirt and bacteria to buildup which can lead to breakouts. It's important you wash brushes every two to three weeks. An easy DIY quick fix is to mix a couple of drops of gentle facial cleanser or shampoo with lukewarm water in a cup. Then swish your brushes around, rinse with lukewarm water, pat dry, and lay flat on a clean towel to air dry.
Mistake: Skimping on Sleep. Your skin and body go into repair mode when asleep. This is why sticking to a regular sleeping routine will not only keep you well rested, but will help to renew and regenerate new skin cells. For an extra boost, try incorporating just a glass a day of soy milk into your daily routine as this can help improve the structure and firmness of your skin, as well as soften those crow's feet.
Mistake: Not Cleansing Daily. Going to bed without washing your face is one of the biggest skin care no-no's. Leaving makeup and dirt on skin doesn't just clog pores and cause breakouts, it can also lead to excessive dryness and even skin dandruff. To clear out the gunk without drying out skin, opt for a soap-free cleanser like Sebamed Clear Face Cleansing Foam and start cleansing on a daily basis! The cleanser is soap and alkali-free wash that gently cleanses pores to eliminate pimples and blackheads, with a coconut oil-based antibacterial active ingredient that removes bacteria to prevent the formation of new pimples.
Mistake: Waiting To Moisturize. Most creams and lotions have key ingredients that create a protective barrier on the surface of the skin to lock in moisture to maintain a healthy pH balance of 5.5. For optimum moisture, slather on Sebamed Moisturizing Face Cream immediately after cleansing or a hot shower, before the skin cools and your pores begin to close).
You can purchase the products online or at lots of national drug store and grocery chains.

House of Mystery #254 - Neal Adams cover, Steve Ditko, Alex Nino, Marshall Rogers art
House of Mystery v1 #254, 1977 - A massive octopus-like creature bemoans the fact that he was once human on Neal Adams' somber cover. Within the issue, the tale of an old sailor's ghost benefits from Steve Ditko's pencils. Marshall Rogers tells of a country doctor and a town's demonic occurrences (see interior page below). The ending is frankly silly, but his first three pages are artfully crafted. This story was later reprinted in Shadow of the Batman #5. Finally, the story of a murderer possessed is heightened by Alex Nino's artwork. Sharply drawn, his nightmarish imagery is appropriately eerie and disturbing. This is number 26 of 26 House of Mystery issues with Adams art and/or covers, number 3 of 6 House of Mystery issues with Ditko art and/or covers, number 1 of 2 House of Mystery issues with Rogers art and/or covers and number 11 of 14 House of Mystery issues with Nino art and/or covers.

Festivals happen year round in Milwaukee; SummerFest, Irish Fest, German Fest, Festa Italiana to name a few. This year, after a 10-year absence Winter Fest returns to Milwaukee. From December 21st through to New Year's Eve the Frontier Airlines Center will host what the city fathers hope will become a yearly family tradition.
Winter Fest kicks off with Read It To Beat It where 5,000 students from area schools will read for 30-minutes with Green Bay Packer Ryan Grant and Milwaukee Brewer Craig Counsell. Milwaukee students are trying to break the Guinness World Record of 4,222 students that is held by Nigeria.
Winter Fest is a one-stop destination for holiday family entertainment. Young children (and the child at heart) will enjoy train rides around the giant Christmas tree, activities in the Winter Fest Village, cookie decorating and face painting, playing in Candyland Village, riding the carousel, or trying their science skills with the hands on things at the Discovery World Design It Lab.
Older kids, teens and adults can strap on ice skates and take some twirls around the rink, test their strength on the rock climbing wall, sink a putt on the mini-golf course , or get their adrenaline rush bungee jumping or riding the giant slide. They can rock to the music of Winter Jam with Night Storm and contestants from the Milwaukee's Got Talent competition.
As with other Milwaukee festivals, food takes center stage here. The aromas of German sausages sizzling, soups, fresh baked pastries and hot cocoa are bound to whet your appetite.
Get out and enjoy Winter Fest in the city of superior festivals, Milwaukee.

With the departure of Google+ architect Vic Gundotra a large number of news sites are questioning the continuation of Google's social network Google has been struggling with their social networks for quite some time now. Think of Buzz and Google Wave. Is Google+ the next in line of killed social platforms, or is it mature enough to grow without the need for this extra special care?
The common denominator in the news seems to be a lack of understanding of the role of social in the Cross Channel landscape and the lack of real experience on the platform by the journalists and thus have a different view of what is actually happening there. The usage of the platform is not in the top 3 right now, but the platform is in its juvenile stage. It's still growing.
What's more important is to see that a social network as such is not a channel like a video-site or a search engine. These are content centric bricks you can build upon. Social is about people. Google understands this and is integrating G+ in its own products. There are also a growing number of sites that use Facebook and Twitter to bind stuff together that start using G+.
Social is not a brick; it's the mortar. It's what binds different channels together. You can build on only bricks but it will be stronger with some mortar.
Google+ isn't dead; it is technically full-grown, but still immature in adoption.
Leaves us with the question of what to do if you only have mortar? Is social alone enough to survive? What do you think?

Earlier this year, she was accepted into the graphic-design program at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.
"I had just finished my freshman year and applied at the end of March, right before spring break," Minniear said during an interview with The Park Record. "This is a three-year program that I will start in the fall. It's a very selective program and they only accept 20 students out of the 100 that apply. I'll be working more with computer-based stuff."
Minniear said her involvement with the Young Artists Academy (YAA) helped give her a leg up for the program.
"Art was always the thing I was good at besides ski racing," she said. "So I decided that I wanted to give art a chance, because it is pretty hard to be successful in ski racing.
"It's hard to be successful in anything, really, but art has been my other passion and I knew as soon as I graduated high school that it was something I wanted to do," Minniear said. "And when I looked at colleges, I looked for ones that had great art programs."
Minniear got involved with the YAA in her sophomore year of high school.
After her freshman year at Park City High School, she and a friend applied and were accepted into the program.
Minniear was in it for three years.
"I started off at Park City High School, but in my junior year, I switched to the Winter Sports School for ski racing and I graduated in 2012," Minniear said.
The reason Minniear wanted to apply to YAA was her love of art.
"I never got a chance to take art classes in school and getting into the Winter Sports School was great, but since it was such a small school, it didn't offer a variety of classes, which really didn't bother me until it came to art," she said. "I wanted to be more involved in art because it was something that I was always interested in.
During her time in YAA, Minniear learned a wide range of things about the art world.
"First off, we did so many different projects," she said. "I learned how to weld, which was pretty cool, because that was definitely something that I don't think I ever would have done outside of YAA. We also learned jewelry making and ceramics."
A great experience for Minniear was being able to exhibit her work in the Kimball Art Center's annual Wasatch Back Student Art Show.
"I did that all three years when I was in YAA," she said. "It was eye-opening for me to see the art world beyond high school."
Her works are mainly done with acrylic paints.
"I like working with that medium a lot," she said.
Minniear also participated in a variety of art competitions, including one concerning the YAA logo. The piece can be seen online at the Kimball Art Center website (www.kimballartcenter.org ).
YAA director Jenny Diersen set up the competition and accepted the entries.
"We all voted and mine was selected," Minniear said. "That was pretty awesome, because it was my first intro to graphic design and the mechanics behind it, which will help me at the university. I don't know how long they will keep it, but I was very honored."
During her time with YAA, Minniear formed a close bond with Diersen.
"She's the best person to run that program, because she wasn't just a great artist and friend, but a wonderful mentor as well," Minniear said. "She is someone you feel comfortable going to with not just questions about art, but life. And I still value my relationship with her."
Being a Young Artists Academy alumna is something Minniear will wear with pride for the rest of her life.
"[The program] is something I really valued," she said. "I had to set my skiing and training aside a few times a month to attend YAA. It was worth it because it's made me more creative and helped me look at different ways to look at things."
Minniear looks forward to the new things she will learn and work on at Miami University and has some ideas about her future.
"Ideally, I would like to come back to Park City and work for Rossignol and design their skis or clothing," she said. "That's a pretty ambitious goal, I know, but I have a passion to do something like that."

And, because it's the off-season and I care way too much about the Canucks, I took the time to watch the summit live on Canucks.com. Let's face it, I'm starved for Canucks news and I hope that you are too. Otherwise, no one would bother reading this post.
A couple of the announcements were expected and anticipated, such as the reveal of the 40th Anniversary sweater and the introduction of a couple of the new arrivals to the Canucks for the 2010-11 season. Others were more surprising. Here's a quick recap of the event and some thoughts on the announcements.
The Big Announcements
- The biggest announcement, of course, is the retirement of Markus Naslund's #19 on December 11th of the upcoming season. While I'm sure this will spark many debates among Canucks fans as to whether the honour is deserved, personally, I'm thrilled. Naslund revived the franchise when he arrived from Pittsburgh, becoming one of the most important Canucks of all time. He's the all-time franchise leader in goals and points, and was the key component of one of the most exciting scoring lines Vancouver has ever seen in the West Coast Express. But equally important, he played a big role in the community, along with his wife Lotta. They gave freely of their time and energy, much of it to Canucks Place and BC Children's Hospital. Markus is a special player who is very deserving of having his number retired along Smyl and Linden.
- Like many other NHL teams, the Canucks will be establishing a Ring of Honour for those players who may not be ideal candidates for a sweater retirement but still contributed to the history of the Canucks organization. The first to be honoured on October 26th will be Orland Kurtenbach, the Canucks first captain and former head coach. This is a great move by the organization, as there are many players that could be honoured. Orland is a great choice to be the first inductee. Three other players will be inducted this year. Possibilities could be Richard Brodeur, Kirk McLean, Thomas Gradin, Pavel Bure, and Wayne Maki. The one player that the Ring of Honour should take out a restraining order on to ensure that he has no contact with it, whether in person or by phone: Mark Messier.
- As expected, the Canucks introduced a special 40th Anniversary sweater, which will be worn on opening night and four additional nights. The sweater is a match for the original they wore for their first seasons in the NHL from 1970-78 with the addition of the 40th Anniversary patch that had already been scouted out. I'm guessing the other four nights this jersey is worn will be the nights they induct the four members of the Ring of Honour, but that's just speculation on my part.
Smaller Announcements and Answers to Questions
- The team formally introduced Manny Malhotra and Dan Hamhuis as members of the Canucks. It's a good thing they showed up, as John Shorthouse was looking dangerously under-dressed in his polo shirt amongst all the suits. Fortunately, Manny and Hammy were appropriately casual. Hamhuis slipped in a jab at Nashville, noting that the attendance at the Summer Summit was awfully similar to the attendance at a Predators home game in November. Shortly after, while drawing a ticket for a prize, a fan jokingly booed when he announced it was a red rather than green ticket. Shorty jumped in, "Your first boo! No, no, it was Hamhuuuuuis."
- Shorthouse used the opportunity of the announcement of Naslund's jersey retirement to ask about the possibility of Pavel Bure receiving the same treatment in the future. Gillis clearly was not expecting the question and gave a classic GM's non-answer. To be fair, Bure could be inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame and would be the first player who played the majority of his career in Vancouver to receive that honour. I don't see it happening; it's more likely he'll find a place in the Ring of Honour.
- Then came the questions from the season ticket holders, the majority aimed at Mike Gillis. The first was about Russians and the KHL: no Russians other than Shirokov will be competing for a spot on the Canucks and it appears that Kirill Koltsov won't be coming over from the KHL any time soon. Gillis went as far to say that the risks with Russian players and the KHL mean that he'll be likely to pick more Western Canadian kids than Russian kids in the future.
- Best line of the evening easily goes to Gillis. A fan asked "Why don't we have a cool intro like the Flames or Oilers?" Gillis's response: "I'd rather have a hockey team." Killer line.
- Gillis was actually quite funny all night, with a number of great one-liners. He really seemed to enjoy himself.
- Alex Burrows, according to Gillis, is ahead of schedule after his shoulder surgery and may be back in time for the beginning of the season. His agent had previously suggested Burrows might not be back until October or November, so hopefully Gillis is right.
- Who will wear #2 next season, Ballard or Hamhuis? Hammy suggested that in these types of cases, it usually comes down to the number of games played. Convenient.
- Unfortunately, our favourite weirdo, Kyle Wellwood, is on his way out. Gillis wished him the best and hopes that he finds a place to play through free agency.
- And finally, Gillis confirmed once again that Cory Schneider will be the backup in Vancouver, but also expressed the desire to sign a "veteran, young goaltender" to be their third-stringer/starter for the Moose. It's kind of difficult to get someone who's both veteran and young. Yann Danis might work; he's been a respectable backup at the NHL level. He's 29, but he could be a decent pickup. Barry Brust is younger, but has less NHL experience. Thankfully, I'm not the GM of the Canucks.

I'm working in Einsiedler and Ward's book on Ergodic Theory and in Exercise 2.5.4 they want to prove the following
$$\lim_{N - M \to \infty} \frac{1}{N - M} \sum_{n = M}^{N - 1} U_T^n f \to P_T f.$$
Now I'm wondering what this limit really says, it must be stronger than pointwise convergence since we can pick $M = 0$. It we let $N = 2n$ and $M = n$, then we seem to get more and more terms but adding them up from the "tail". To me it seems that this is a very strong convergence condition or am I wrong? What does the limit intuitively say?

Three things coincided recently.
1) Jana Hunter, the singer for the band Lower Dens, recently wrote about her band's relationship to streaming music services.
2) Scott Repass, Houston writer and saloon keeper, said in an article in the Houston Chronicle, "Our profit is actually made by a community. You know when you go into a bar that you could get that beer for half-price (at the grocery store) and drink at home. You're coming because you want the community that bar is creating."
3) I rented The Campaign from the Redbox machine installed in the lobby of my El stop for $1.30. My wife and I watched it, making it a 65 cent rental each.

Three-Dimensional Cell Culture Has Two Dimensions,...
Peptide Drugs Are Not Only Diverse...

Inovio Biomedical will collaborate with the National Microbiology Laboratory of the Public Health Agency of Canada and the University of Pennsylvania to further evaluate its DNA vaccine candidates against the swine influenza A (H1N1) virus. The candidates will be tested against pandemic and seasonal strains in animal models, including a recently identified swine H1N1 strain.
Inovio's influenza vaccine constructs were designed using the company's SynCon™ technology, which synthetically defines antigens and gene sequences common across different viral subtypes or taxonomic groups of influenza. This is significant because the virus is constantly evolving. By early June scientists had characterized over 60 different gene sequences of the H1N1 virus among the first 259 samples isolated from humans.
"The current swine flu outbreak highlights the fact that the world cannot rely solely on the catch-up strategy of influenza vaccine design," states J. Joseph Kim, Ph.D., Inovio's CEO. "We need vaccines that provide at least some broad protective capability against evolving seasonal influenza strains and those with pandemic potential."
Inovio scientists have created DNA vaccine candidates broadly targeting the H1N1, H2N2, H3N2, and H5N1 influenza subtypes, which make up the majority of seasonal and pandemic influenza. The three institutions previously collaborated and published on studies involving Inovio's vaccines, including an evaluation of Inovio's VGX-3400 H5N1 avian flu vaccine candidate.

Local ad federation chapter installs new president
Published: Friday, June 20, 2014 at 6:33 p.m.

DAYTONA BEACH — The American Advertising Federation of Daytona Beach swore in Kym Kozak as its president for the next year at its monthly luncheon Thursday at the Holiday Inn Daytona Beach LPGA hotel.
Kozak owns Ormond Beach-based graphic design company KK Ad & Design and served as chair of the local 2014 American Advertising Awards — formerly known as the ADDY Awards — held in March at the Ocean Center convention center in Daytona Beach.
She succeeds Morgan Seedarnee, who had served as president of the local AdFed since April 2013. Kozak will serve a one-year term.
The Daytona Beach AdFed represents local marketing and advertising professionals and has 52 members, Seedarnee said.
