Estheticians, also called skin care specialists, work at Arizona spas, salons, resorts, health clubs, hotels and department stores. They clean and care for skin, and provide treatments such as facial massage, aromatherapy, and facials. Estheticians teach clients to apply make up and skin care products that are best for their skin types. Some Arizona estheticians specialize in medical skin care, working with burn patients, cancer patients, and people with skin damage due to surgery, injury or accidents. Students who attend an esthetician school in Arizona learn about hygiene for equipment and salons. They learn to evaluate clients' skin, apply treatments and skin care products, and apply cosmetics that best suit the clients' needs and appearance.
Earn Your Arizona Esthetician License
The Arizona Board of Cosmetology requires esthetics students complete 600 hours of classroom and hands-on training at an approved Arizona esthetics school. Following graduation, students must pass both a written and a practical exam to obtain their Esthetician license in AZ. The curriculum at esthetics school stresses the structure and function of skin, and care for the skin using different techniques, equipment, and products. Many schools offer classes in business and career development for future estheticians. Arizona requires esthetician students study state laws and regulations covering esthetics practice. Students in esthetic school learn about cosmetology, skin care products, chemical peels, hair removal, make up products, skin care procedures, and make up application.
Work as an Arizona Esthetician
Nationally, estheticians earn a median wage of $28,640 before tips according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. Most work in locations such as salons and spas. Many work at resorts and hotels. A significant percentage of estheticians nationwide work with medical providers. Others make it to the make up artist business, working with stars of film and fashion. Some estheticians go on to work as representatives for skin care and cosmetics companies Salaries are highest in hospitals, outpatient clinics and doctors offices.
The Phoenix-Mesa metropolitan area ranks sixth highest in the nation for esthetician salaries, with an annual average salary of $34,870 before tips. Statewide, estheticians earn an average of $34,420 per year before tips. Nationwide, job growth for estheticians has a bright outlook according to the BLS.

Got questions? Click the question below for the answer!
Is Phi Beta Lambda a Fraternity?
Nope, it's actually a club. Did you have Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) in your high school? It's just the continuation of that club into college!
I see that you belong to the John L. Grove College of Business, but I'm not a business major. Does this make me ineligible to become a member even if I was in high school?
Absolutely not! PBL is open to
members of the Shippensburg student body. After all, everyone needs a job in the future, PBL just helps you in the transition between academics and real-life experience.
How will Phi Beta Lambda prepare me for a job?
PBL will offer leadership experience through its many channels, such as becoming an officer, becoming a committee leader, becoming a committee member, or just being an active member!
Networking will be a word you get tired of quickly, however meeting as many people now can help you to discover new job venues in the future!
There are many other ways that PBL can prepare you; just ask one of our existing members, officers, or advisors!

There is a $40 per academic year fee to become a member recognized by
Pennsylvania PBL
National PBL
. This $40 includes a PBL lapel pin which you will receive at your Induction Ceremony (see below) and a t-shirt.
How can I skip the fee?

most active member
and you should just about break even!

Microsoft Cluster Servers
Microsoft Active/Active Cluster
Microsoft Active/Passive Cluster
Using VirusScan Enterprise in a Microsoft Cluster environment
VirusScan Enterprise supports a shared disk model and as such, does not interfere with the failover process on a Microsoft Cluster. However, the On Access scanning service is not a cluster service and not installed as a failover group resource.
Functionality Explained
VirusScan Enterprise installs on each system (or node) in the cluster and scans as it would on any other server. If a node fails, the surviving nodes with VirusScan Enterprise installed continue to operate as usual. The same is true when the node that failed comes back online - the VirusScan Enterprise that is installed on it will operate normally.
Microsoft Knowledge Base article 250355 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/250355 deals with potential issues with AntiVirus software and failover operations on clusters. It also provides troubleshooting tips for these types of issues.
IMPORTANT: McAfee designs its products so as not to impact failover operations. If you have a failover issue believed to be caused by McAfee products, please contact McAfee Technical Support.
McAfee product software, upgrades, maintenance releases, and documentation are available from the Product Downloads site at: http://www.mcafee.com/us/downloads/downloads.aspx.

Treatment of B-Cell Lymphomas with Monoclonal...
Researchers Wrestle with When to Make...
As Translational Medicine Data Become More...
From our September 1 Issue: We're...
Researchers from Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research have found a replacement to the oncogene needed to reprogram adult cells to an embryonic stem cell like state. They report that using mice, they were able to successfully replace cancer promoter c-Myc, which is one of four genes required for this process, with a protein called Wnt.
These embryonic stem cell like cells are also known as induced pluripotent (IPS) cells. Currently, retroviruses are used to transfer the four genes—Oct4, Sox2, c-Myc, and Klf4—into the cells' DNA for reprogramming.
This method, however, poses significant risks for potential use in humans, according to the researchers. Retroviruses are associated with cancer because they insert DNA anywhere in a cell's genome, thereby potentially triggering the expression of cancer-causing genes. Additionally, c-Myc is a known oncogene whose overexpression can also cause cancer.
Earlier research has shown that c-Myc is not strictly required for the generation of IPS cells. Its absence, however, makes the reprogramming process time consuming and highly inefficient, the investigators point out.
To bypass these obstacles, the Whitehead researchers replaced c-Myc and its retrovirus with Wnt3a. When added to the fluid surrounding the cells being reprogrammed, they found that Wnt3a promotes the conversion of adult cells into IPS cells.
These findings are published in the August 7 online issue of Cell Stem Cell.
"We're not sure if the Wnt molecule is doing the same thing as c-Myc or complementing c-Myc's activity," says Brett Chevalier, a research scientist involved in this study. "But it does increase stem cell growth similar to c-Myc."
Although the technique is promising in mouse cells, its potential applications in humans have not been studied, emphasizes Rudolf Jaenisch, a lead coauthor on the paper and professor of biology at MIT. He says that work needs to be done to figure out whether the same pathway acts in the human system and if Wnt molecules can be used to reprogram human cells.

The skateboard deck is the very heart of the skating experience. It is the part of the board that the skater is most intimate with, depending on every curve and twist for the deck to be there for you. Contact with the skateboard deck defines success or failure: missing the deck means bailing, much to the amusement of your so-called friends.
Skaters therefore take their deck very seriously. More than just a place to plant your feet, the skateboard deck has become a billboard to broadcast your musical taste, favorite skate paraphernalia brands and personal philosophy by applying stickers or simply painting tags on deck.
The modern skateboard deck evolved from surf boards in the 1950's, pioneered by inventive wavehounds who wanted a way to fly dry between high tides. Typical of the laid-back, anarchic subculture of the day, there was no standard for shapes and sizes until industry entered the picture in the early 1970's, when the first widely distributed manufactured boards started to appear.
Until manufactured skateboards become common in the early 1970's, skaters literally had to build their own boards, using recycled roller skate wheels and whatever plank of wood struck their fancy. Some old-schoolers still wax nostalgic for the time when just to skate at all you needed enough ingenuity, commitment and courage to construct your own board and then trust your body's safety to you handiwork.
Canadian Maple is the material of choice for modern skateboard decks. Each deck is made of 5-9 ply (usually 7) of the premium lumber. Recent designs using aluminum and synthetic materials may be lighter or more durable, but for most serious skaters, nothing but maple will do.
The shape of the deck will depend on the degree of your experience and daring. A deeper concave, with steeper nose and tail kicks, allows the expert more precision, power and speed when executing tricks. The noob will want a more shallow concave shape, which allows more room to recover from errors.
Skaters of all skill levels may choose a longboard deck with a flat nose for utility transportation. With a more aerodynamic streamlined shape than trick boards, the longboard is best for getting around on a schedule. Prior to the revolutionary concave design of inventor Richard Stevenson, who created the kicktail, the longboard was the only style available on store shelves.
The length and width of skateboard decks are, of course, also critical to the performance a skateboard offers. Most street and vert decks are between 7.5 and 8.25 inches wide, although length can vary a great deal, from as short as six inches for the specialty "shoe-board" up to 46 inches for a true sidewalk-surfing experience. As you would probably imagine, the term, "longboard", is generally reserved for decks 35 inches or longer.
Choosing a skateboard deck which is right for you is largely a matter of personal taste. Whatever deck you choose, you can be sure that your choice will be with you through every ollie and slalom-and not there on every bail, sack and slam.

We've put together this page to provide you with some tips and information about the kinds of research and writing you might be assigned in the Department's classes. If you have any questions, please contact a member of the faculty.
Click on any of the following links or simply scroll down to review the material on this page.
The MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers (ed. Gibaldi) is the definitive style guide when it comes to writing about literature and language. The MLA format for working with, quoting, and citing sources is frequently used in language and literature classes at Benedictine. If you are majoring in either Spanish or literature, you may wish to purchase this manual (available at the campus bookstore and at most online and bricks-and-mortar bookstores). Copies can also be found in the reference section of the Benedictine library (note that these do not circulate).

Assignments for many literature and foreign language classes often will require the use of research materials such as books, journal articles, or on-line resources. You may want to use either primary or secondary sources that are not available on campus. Below are some resources for effective research; remember, this process takes time. If you wait until the last minute, you may not find what you need.
- The MLA Bibliography indexes books and periodicals of interest to students of literature and foreign languages. The library subscribes to the Bibliography, which can be searched online. (on-campus only; login required for off-campus use). Additional databases likely to be of interest to literature and language students can be found here.
- Interlibrary Loan (ILL) refers to the national and regional system which allows students, faculty, and staff to borrow materials from libraries across the country. Benedictine also participates in the I-Share network, which allows our university community to request materials from 71 other libraries in the state of Illinois. Once you have done your research and located resources, go to the library website to place your I-Share and ILL requests, or visit the Library for assistance. Remember to allow at least two weeks for materials to arrive.
- The library's Literature LibGuide offers resources to help students "locate and retrieve quality information to support... research projects."
Though online research has become simpler and more practical in recent years, many online materials are still of poor quality, and some are frankly bogus. Materials housed at universities (i.e., those with a URL ending in .edu) tend to be more reliable. Be wary of sites that include student-authored materials, since these are sometimes posted as examples without having been edited or corrected.
As a general rule, online sources used for papers should be restricted to primary texts or detailed research (i.e., historical sources) from reputable sites. General reference works such as Wikipedia or dictionaries are typically not suitable as sources for most assignments. These materials are best regarded as providing a starting point for your own research; as such, they should not be used as secondary sources in your writing, unless your instructor gives you permission to do so.
Note that material found online is subject to the same citation and plagiarism rules that apply to other references (see above).
The English Language & Literature faculty recommend the following online resources as particularly useful for literature majors. (Remember: online research should supplement library research, not substitute for it!).

I do like this whey protein - an isolate with no added sweetners, hormones, or other stuff found in most products. Not sure about the "natural" vanilla flavor though. I prefer nothing added. However, it does add a nice taste. I add this to a morning drink that includes a superfood powder, Carlson's Lemon Flavored Fish Oil, and the whey.
Tastes great!

Kaiser Family Foundation, an independent, nonprofit organization that analyzes health care issues, has taken a look at the insurance premiums to be offered by some states when their insurance marketplaces open Oct. 1.
The data comes from 17 states and the District of Columbia.
With open enrollment in new insurance marketplaces set to begin Oct. 1, this analysis provides an early look at insurance premiums in 17 states and DC that have publicly released comprehensive data about their rates and the impact of tax credits that will offset part of the costs for low- and moderate-income families.
The analysis compares the premiums in the largest cities in each of the 17 states plus DC for individuals and families in different circumstances to illustrate the insurance rates they might pay, with and without the tax credits created under the law to make coverage more affordable. The 17 states plus DC include eleven operating their own marketplaces (also called exchanges) and seven that have defaulted to the federal government.
A wide range of premiums exist across the 18 cities, with tax credits varying based on enrollees' income levels and the second-lowest-cost "silver" plan available in each market. Eligible enrollees may use their tax credits to help pay for the silver plan or any other generally available plan in the marketplace, including the less generous (and less costly) "bronze" plan.
The analysis also provides similar state-by-state estimates for the cost of coverage for a 25-year-old and a 60-year-old, as well as the impact of tax credits on those rates. It includes additional examples for a family of four and an older couple in each of the 18 cities: Los Angeles, Calif.; Denver, Colo.; Hartford, Conn.; Washington, DC; Indianapolis, Ind.; Baltimore, Md.; Portland, Maine; Billings, Mont.; Omaha, Neb.; Albuquerque, N.M.; New York City, N.Y.; Cleveland, Ohio; Portland, Ore.; Providence, R.I.; Sioux Falls, S.D.; Richmond, Va.; Burlington, Vt.; and Seattle, Wash.
The Hill's Healthwatch Blog reports people who live below the poverty line in states that will not expand Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act, including Texas, will not have access to Medicaid or subsidized insurance coverage.
People below the poverty level will have no new coverage options under ObamaCare in states that fail to expand their Medicaid programs, according to a new study.
As many as two in five uninsured adults in those states will not have access to Medicaid or subsidized plans on the new insurance exchanges, despite their low incomes, said a report by Commonwealth Fund.
This unintended situation arose because ObamaCare's authors assumed all states would expand their Medicaid programs to people making below 133 percent of the poverty level as mandated by the law's original text.
As a result, the law only provides subsidized coverage on the new insurance marketplaces to people with incomes between 100 and 399 percent of the poverty level, excluding people below that line.
Those individuals would otherwise be covered by Medicaid, but the Supreme Court decision upholding the Affordable Care Act made the expansion optional for states.
Twenty-six states have decided either not to expand their programs or are undecided, meaning many below the poverty line will not benefit from ObamaCare's new coverage options, said Commonwealth, a nonprofit research foundation.

Burton Juice Wagon
The way Stephan Maurer rides his Fish was the spark for this fresh-snow freestyle board. For park-precision on natural features, every element of the Juice Wagon has been designed for riders who see opportunities for air in the natural and untracked landscape. Fully directional with a moderate taper for float and flow, its camber chassis equals power, precision, and a snappy suspension. To see our inspiration, just Google "Mu and his Fish."
Burton Sherlock
The Sherlock is the solution for ripping from stash to stash, while catching a little air along the way. It slays all obstacles with deep snow float and feel thanks to a combo of rocker/camber Flying V™ and Side Effects, putting it in the freeride class of the Barracuda but with the freestyle versatility of the Custom. This pro-level deck is the one Mikey Rencz and Mark Sollors pull from the sled when filming with their crews and just like them, it needs a steady diet of fresh snow and featured terrain to stay satisfied.
Burton Custom
Since 1995, innovation has defined the Custom series. Now the one-board answer to all terrain adds Carbon Highlights to the mix for drastic weight-savings, crisper pop, and deluxe handling when piloting through the mountain's mixed bag. Camber is the top choice for pros like Nicolas Müller and Mikkel Bang, while Flying V™ combines camber's power with the relaxed feel and float of rocker for the best of both.
Burton Feelgood
Backed by Kelly Clark and Hannah Teter, the Feelgood™ is the defining force in women's snowboarding. Carbon Highlights are the biggest bonus, shaving serious weight while making the board more playful and lively from tip to tail. Available with the precision of camber or the rocker-infused freedom of Flying V™, it's a perfect match for aspiring pros or just riders who thrive on a little friendly competition.
Burton Deja Vu
The Deja Vu Flying V™ lets you tame the entire trail map again and again. Experience easy float in powder with the overall rocker design, yet stay locked in when things get sketchy thanks to empowering camber underfoot and the cushioned control of Smooth Ride™. NEW Side Effects give Kimmy Fasani the added float she needs when filming heavy jump lines in the backcountry, while the all-wheel-drive edge control of Overbite Frostbite is a must for Cilka Sadar when competing on technical terrain.
Burton Day Trader
From first chair to backcountry bootpack, our women's freeride shape on the NEW Day Trader rides with confidence in everything from deep conditions to steep, technical terrain. Developed with Kimmy Fasani, this tapered, directional board is designed to explore the off-piste with ease. Flat Top between the feet enhances stability and control, while the early rise kicks create the effortless rocker float. Premium in every respect, it includes Carbon Highlights for ultra-lightweight, added snap, and smoother handling.

An almost indescribable sight to see. It is when a man's penis has been inactive and unused for quite some time and then he gets an erection in which the end result is the man's erection looks like a very, very angry panda. This sight is due to the fact that the penis has been so long out of the "game" that it has grown angry and has grown lots of hair with some discoloration due to a feeling of old age. To prevent always show attention to your penis, it has feelings too.
Whoa man put that huge raging panda away, nobody wants to see that.

By MIKE SMITH
New Rochelle hasn't had an easy time playing at Scarsdale High School over the last few years, but when the Huguenots took the court on Jan. 25, they weren't thinking about past failures. Instead, they were focused on the task at hand, stopping a hot-shooting league foe in the Raiders.
After a back-and-forth battle that went into overtime, the Huguenots came away with an 83-74 win–a signature victory in an already solid season for New Rochelle.
Playing without Aisha White-Silas, the Huguenots played perhaps their most complete team game of the season, battling back from a 16-point deficit in the second quarter to upend the Raiders in overtime.
"I don't think we've beat Scarsdale at their place as long as I've been here," Huguenots coach Bruce Daniele said. "This was a big, gutty win for us against a team that just played fantastic in the first half."
Despite downing the Raiders by 20-points in the first meeting between the two teams on Jan. 8, Daniele commended Scarsdale for a shooting touch that nearly buried the Huguenots in the beginning of Friday's game. Given the depth of the league in which both the Huguenots and Raiders play, Daniele wouldn't be surprised to see big things from the Raiders in the postseason.
"They're a tough team, the way they shoot the ball," Daniele said. "They are going to be a very tough draw in the playoffs."
For a New Rochelle team that has shown flashes of brilliance but sometimes struggles on the offensive end, the Scarsdale game was a high-water mark on the season in terms of scoring. Amirror Dixon led with 16 points, but many Huguenots got in on the action as the squad posted a season-high 83 points.
"With Aisha out, a lot of girls stepped up for us," Daniele said. "We usually don't score that many points."
One of the biggest differences in his team's play, Daniele said, has been the Huguenots' improvement in the half-court. Instead of relying on defense and transition buckets, the team has started to find its offensive rhythm thanks, in part, to the continued development of star Amirror Dixon.
"[Dixon] has been unbelievable passing the ball, knowing when to drive, knowing when to shoot," Daniele said. "She's becoming the player we always knew she could be."
At 11-4, the Huguenots are assured of a playoff spot, although Daniele said, because of a few losses, the team hasn't clinched home-court advantage in the Class AA postseason. According to the Huguenot coach, a tough league schedule and past playoff performances have the Huguenots believing that, no matter where they are seeded, booking a berth to another final-four trip is always the goal.
"We want to get to the County Center; that doesn't change," the head coach said. "We probably cost ourselves a home game in the quarter-finals, but we will go anywhere, we will play anyone to get back there."

| Rod Beattie on ice
Heralded Canadian actor returns for another go around as Walt Wingfield
Rod Beattie is enjoying the weather in Victoria.
The veteran actor of 13-years experience at the Stratford Festival said the pleasant climes of British Columbia suit him just fine, and for more than just the mild winter.
Beattie is perhaps best known for his portrayal of Walt Wingfield, the central figure in playwright Dan Needle's popular series of comedies about the adventures of a former Bay Street tycoon turned country farmer.
Once considered a pariah within the theatre community some 15 years ago, the Wingfield series is now in high-demand nationwide, which is why Beattie enjoys previewing each Wingfield chapter in Victoria, where the theatre audiences are as varied as they are receptive, and the press doesn't travel west of Vancouver, he said.
"Victoria is a terrific theatre town," he says. "It's a good indicator for us to gauge the performance. It gives us a chance to work out in front of an audience without being in the spotlight."
The fifth installment in Needle's series is Wingfield On Ice, appearing at Toronto's Winter Garden Theatre from Dec. 27 through to Feb. 23. The first frost comes to Persephone Township (a mythical rural community north of T.O.) as Walt and Maggie Wingfield are pregnant, and are preparing to bear their first child. But Walt becomes alarmed when old feuds that divide his neighbours and disturb the tranquility of the community arise. His attempts to mend other people's fences meet with a resistance as stiff and cold as the weather itself.
- Read our review -
"Walt's idyllic notion of a community built on joy, love and tolerance is broken," Beattie explains. "Now he sees people slagging at one another all the time."
Beattie says he's yet to grow tired of playing Walt and his friends. He speaks of the character lovingly.
"I quite admire him (Walt Wingfield)," he says. "He's managed to do something with his life many people can only dream of doing, and that's abandoning a lucrative lifestyle that didn't suit his spiritual needs, to go out on a limb. And he continually goes out on a limb."
Moreover, Beattie is a one-man show, playing a bevy of characters - and convincingly. However, he doesn't see the Wingfield plays in that light.
"I don't feel it's a one-person show. It was originally, but it's not really acting," he continues. "Acting is something that happens on stage between actors. I feel this is a cast of people, so I don't feel alone and I don't feel as if I have to carry the show . . . perhaps this comes from the luxury of doing it for this long."
Perhaps it's also due to the familial connection. Beattie's brother Douglas directs the play, he was also responsible for the television production of Letter From Wingfield Farm, the first play in the series that won a 1991 Gemini Award prior to airing on the CBC in 1998-99.
"I suspect he's a very clever man," he says of his younger sibling. "He's an extremely good director and he has a clever way of dealing with actors. He understands the need to work frustrations through . . . I trust him, and not because he's my brother, but because I respect his work."
It could be argued the success of the Wingfield series can be attributed to its ability to connect with the Canadian identity, yet Beattie admits to being at a loss to explain why.
"I have my suspicions. One is it flies in the face of accepted wisdom about theatre that says you can't have satire without malice," he says. "Another is a great deal of Canadian television comedy is simply malicious and I don't buy it. I don't find it funny.
"I believe the appreciation in Canada and for this kind of humour in general is that it isn't at someone's expense."
That appreciation left the CBC dumbfounded at the series' huge ratings success on the telly in 1999, Beattie recalled.
"They were worried about promoting it because they didn't know how, and they didn't really," he chuckles. "But when they asked us how to pitch it to their viewing audience, we said to describe it as being slow moving and soft hitting."
Wingfield On Ice plays at the Winter Garden Theatre (189 Yonge Street),
Dec. 27 to Feb. 23. Tickets ($28-$55) can be purchased by calling TicketKing

|hope college > student development
Student Development Vision/Direction Statement
Revised September 8, 1998
Student Development provides many services and activities, which are essential for students. These services and activities include a clean environment, healthy and good food to eat, quality recreational opportunities, and many others that allow Hope College to become comfortable and meaningful. However, the real important events are those experiences where students are challenged, supported, and cared for as it relates to the liberal arts, membership in the community, understanding and experiencing faith in action, and comprehending diversity. Student Development must constantly be aware of teachable moments as well as create intentional occasions so that students have a richer and more meaningful understanding of their head, heart, and soul. This approach to teaching requires initiative and the willingness to engage and not be passive or reactive. Four years is a short length of time. If we are successful at this endeavor we will have created a community which involves:
Sense of Stability, Involvement, and Belonging
A Community of Faith and Hope
The Beginning of an Integrated Life
Expanded definition of academic and individual learning
Understanding & developing appropriate response to diversity
Articulate an understanding of the liberal arts and develop purposeful events with students, faculty, and staff in relationship to liberal arts.
Create opportunities for the classroom to be extended in different physical spaces and programs.
Be seen and involved in the liberal arts culture.
Develop our unique voice as educators and "servant leaders" of the academic and nonacademic culture.
Create opportunities to educate students' lifelong competencies (e.g.: oral and written communication, analytical thinking, questioning and decision making, ability to adapt to changing roles and differing values.
Develop the residential community of the whole college and the processes, which are central to the institution.
Create a culture of civility and understanding of responsibility.
Develop an understanding of how differences can add to the whole in a constructive manner.
Create ways to unify the educational and co?curricular experience. Develop innovative ways to involve faculty and staff in residential units and programs in all areas of student development.
Create purposeful opportunities that stretch the mind, the heart, and one's faith.
Encourage, explore, and learn with students as they participate in their Christian journey. Also demonstrate respect for and willingness to learn about different religions and how they relate to the Christian faith.
Create opportunities for the Christian faith to be explored, experienced, and understood more fully.
Develop an ecumenical approach to the multiples of Christian faiths on campus.
Be willing to share the Christian faith.
Provide leadership and initiatives that create an understanding and respect for diversity, and the way we work together. The primary focus of this effort will be to increase minority participation at Hope College and to more effectively prepare the majority student to understand the racial, ethnic, and cultural differences.
Be clearly identified as supporters/leaders of diversity issues on campus and seek as well as utilize teachable moments.
All planning should have diversity as a first thought and not an after thought
Be involved in an ongoing process to develop your own professional competence with respect to diversity.
Create intentional opportunities to assure that environment is welcoming to all.
Seek diverse students in all aspects of organizational work (e.g.: OAs, RAs, student group leadership positions, judicial board members, etc.
Assessment is a critical element in all of our work. Each area will develop goals and processes to achieve the goals that are clear and understandable. As part of this careful planning each goal will have an assessment element which identifies whether the goal has been reached by the processes which have been used.

Aboriginal Art Exhibit
Songide'ewin: Aboriginal Narratives
Songide'ewin: Aboriginal Narratives combines visual and literary art as a way to foster dialogue that leads toward truth and reconcilliation between Native and non-Native communities. Through the creative process, "truth" evolves and emerges. Art, after all, is a reflection of our deepest spirit, our souls, and the appearance of our true, uncesored selves.
The exhibit was created by Rene Meshake, Ojibwe artist and author, and Dr. Kristiina Montero, Faculty of Education assistant professor, who brought together Native Arts and Culture students from Sir John A. MacDonald Secondary School (Hamilton, ON) and preservice teachers from Wilfrid Laurier University's Bachelor of Education program to explore Aboriginal teachings and worldviews through symbols, stories, colours, and cadence. Individual and collective learning is represented in the paintings and in the literary responses to them. Meshake's series of thirteen paintings titled, Truth and Reconciliation will be exhibited as well.
We invite you to become part of our stories and learning.

Clannad – 02
October 28, 2007 | Author: Adun | In: Anime Blogs, Clannad
Many funny moments happened through out this episode, but I would definitely have to say Tomoya saying Kyou is bi was down right hilarious. But more so with Ryou actually believing it for a moment. Though I guess we could see it as Tomoya getting revenge for nearly being run over by Kyou's scooter. Other moments include Tomoyo's 528 hit combo and Fuuko's reaction to the question about her star.
What I like so far from Clannad is how they incorporate all the humour, but also bring in the serious overtones without it making seem weird. As Tomoya spends more time with Nagisa, we get to see much more happening and it does feel a little fast paced, but given that Clannad itself is quite long, KyoAni has still done a good job. Tomoya's reaction to his father I found a little surprising, especially how his father picked up the dango and Tomoya thought of Nagisa. I guess we could see that Tomoya feels that if his father was involved, it would affect Nagisa in a sense. Though I am interested in how Tomoya and his father got to how they are, but I'm sure we'll see that in future episodes.
Well all the main heroines have now been introduced. Hearing Mamiko Noto as Kotomi was just a treat. Though given her character, we won't be hearing too much from her this early on. Plus Nonaka Ai as Fuuko, she just sounds awesomely cute. I look forward to seeing more of both Fuuko and Kotomi, but really, I just want more Kyou screentime, lol.
Also I will go ahead and post a weekly merchandise once I've caught up with the rest of the current season. So look forward to seeing what I have.

Reverse psychology and intermittent positive reinforcement ….two secret weapons any one can use to effect change in their life. Lol Ellie's using both on John. He hasn't a chance.
Oh,oh.Put the kids to bed.Heavy breathing coming up.
Here comes April!
uh oh. Now Johnston's writing science fiction.
Maybe practicing – but not for Valentine's Day!
Practice makes perfect! ;-)
Not for about five more years. April wasn't conceived in February; she was conceived in July (since she was born the following April, which is how she got her name), and she wasn't born until Michael was 14 and Elizabeth was 9.
If it's time to practice for Valentines Day, I better stop and get ice cream on the way home.
Love John's expression in the second panel.
Yeah that's what I thought. She probably wants his help with something that he ought to be doing anyway but the only way to get it is to use these kinds of moves on him.
Wow – what a bunch of cynics! Marriage is a perpetual work-in-progress, and takes daily effort of the part of both parties. If more folks at least tried to show appreciation for their partners on a regular basis the divorce rate would go down. I speak from the experience of a 30 year till-death-did-us-part marriage BTW

Photoshop Channel Mask
Removing the Background > Adobe Photoshop
It may seem like a real challenge to pull the fireworks out of this image. The selection tools won't work, and the background eraser didn't produce very good results either. I'm going to show you an amazingly simple technique for masking the fireworks in this image using the channels palette.
The total time isolating the fireworks was under two minutes. This technique doesn't always work this smoothly for every image, but it can be used in combination with other methods for making more complex selections. In the fifth example on removing backgrounds with Photoshop, you'll see how this technique was expanded on and combined with other methods for masking a more complicated image. If you're not familiar with masks, you may find it helpful to read my previous article, All About Grayscale Masks.
The first step is to look at the channels palette and determine which color channel best represents the area we want to capture. To the right, shown from top to bottom, you can see the red, blue, and green channels for this image. It's obvious that the red channel contains the most information for capturing the fireworks.
In the channel palette, click on the red channel and drag it down to the new channel button.
This creates a duplicate of the red channel as an alpha channel. Alpha channels are a way of saving selections that can be loaded at any time. In addition, they can be edited with painting tools like a grayscale mask.
Note: In older versions of Photoshop, this channel will be called Alpha 1 (assuming it's the first alpha channel). In later versions of Photoshop, the duplicated channel will be named as a copy of the duplicated channel, such as "Red Copy" in this example.
After duplicating the red channel, the white areas at the bottom of the image (from the city lights in the original image) are painted out. You want to be sure that your alpha channel is the active channel before you start painting. Now we have a grayscale mask that can be loaded as a selection for isolating the fireworks.
Click on RGB in the channel palettes to make all channels active and return to the color view of your image. Next from the Selection menu, choose Load Selection. In the dialog box, choose "Alpha 1" or "Red Copy" (depending on whether you are using an older or newer versions of Photoshop as noted above.
Here you can see the selection marquee surrounding the fireworks.
Next, invert the selection (Selection > Invert in older versions of Photoshop, or Select > Inverse in newer versions) and hit delete to remove the background. Make sure your image is on a layer before hitting delete. If the layer palette shows only one layer labeled background, you must promote it to a layer by double clicking on the background in the layers palette.
Here you can see the fireworks with another background dropped into the layer below. There's just one more step that we can do to improve this image.
From the layers menu choose matting, then Remove Black Matte.
As you can see below, removing the black matte makes a considerable improvement.
Any time you pull an image from its background, it's a good idea to try each of the three matting commands. Sometimes one will produce better results than another, and sometimes none of them appear to have any effect at all... it all depends on the combination of your foreground and background. But don't overlook them entirely because they can often make a world of difference.

The web is full of beautiful websites that have a pixel perfect design, great usability, and cutting edge features. There are lots of examples of how to do web development right out there, but there are also some amazing examples of what not to do.
Below are a dozen websites that are so unique that you can't help but ogle at them. Some haven't been updated since the 90s while others are updated daily and their retro design is either intentional or good enough for them.

Androscoggin Valley Hospital switching to wood heat
Currently, the hospital burns 135,000 gallons of No. 2 fuel oil annually. The biomass plant will save the hospital an estimated $350,000 annually in heating costs, which McMann pointed out means the plant will pay for itself in eight years.

A simple coach marketing strategy
What would be helpful is for you to come up with an idea for your coaching practice: then within 48 hours know if it'll be profitable. This coach marketing strategy will give you this exact knowledge. All you need to do is a modest amount of work and pay for a little advertising. One paying client should more than cover your costs.
Allow me to start by telling you one of my disaster stories. Years ago I came up with an idea for a coaching practice, and I followed the advice of some small business advisers where I live. I invented a business plan, writers were engaged, graphic designers directed and the website put together.
By the time I had finished the website nearly 3 months had passed: an investment of energy time and money. So I felt compelled to pursue the idea.
You can probably guess what's coming; it never worked out. As a business idea it should have been killed stone dead at inception. At some other time I'll tell you what happened. I'll share some of my mistakes. The main problem I Identified was that because it was taking so long to bring the idea to market I couldn't let go of it. As I put more time in it became even harder to walk away. Eventually it consumed 18 months of my life, costing me money and bringing me no income.
The idea in this article is simple: to get accurate and reliable information on your idea quickly, ideally within 48 hours. Then you can decide whether to continue or not.
You don't have to have read much on this site to realise that to get a viable practice as quickly as possible you need to focus on a combination of who and what. That is who you are serving and what's the problem you are solving.
Let's take for an example coaching executives on marital issues. The who are the executives, the whats are marital relationships.
The first step is to create a free report on the topic: somewhere between five and 15 pages. The quickest way to do this is to search Google for other articles. Find a series of articles that make sense to you. Now rewrite them and put them together in one report. You don't want to spend more than about three hours at this stage. We just want a free report that we can use to entice people to sign up with us.
Give the report a simple catchy title such as "How to be a successful executive and have a great marriage".
Next, buy a suitable domain name. With our example it could be something like executive-relationships.com. Create a simple one page website – my preference is to install WordPress. Find a simple free theme, create one page and make sure it is published. Remove all the widgets on the side.
The contents of the page should be simple, the title could be something like "How to have a successful marital relationship and be an effective executive".
Write three or four bullet points on the benefits of getting the free report.
Ideally have an auto responder account with a company such as aweber.com. This will allow you to gather people's names and email addresses so later you can go back and promote your services to them.
Finally, create a simple form to gather names and email addresses. All the auto responders will do this for you and you just copy the code to the web page.
Then write the welcome email with a download link for the free report.
A full day's work is sufficient for this to all be set up.
Now for the testing.
Go to Facebook and place some adverts. You can tailor Facebook to only show up for people who meet your target audience characteristics. In this example you would select people who say they are executives and in a relationship.
The advert only needs to say something simple, such as get your free report on whatever the title of your report is.
Fortunately, Facebook allows you to control your budget, so you can set an upper limit on how much you intend to spend.
Now let it run, see the response. If after a few days you see nothing, no downloads of your free report, then this isn't a viable market for you.
Alternatively, if within a few minutes of publishing your advert you have all the click troughs you'd paid for, clearly you're onto something. I have seen people get more than 100 click troughs in 20 minutes. You should recover all your advertising costs with the income from your first client.
If you have a viable market, it is worth developing the service you offer. You'll expand the website. You'll add information about what you do. Then, ideally, you will go on to test various adverts to find out which is the most effective.
It would be sensible to send short questionnaires to the people who have responded, to more precisely tailor your offering. I suggest you send multiple-choice, or tick box questionnaires only. As soon as people see they have to write something your response rate will drop dramatically. You can also offer a second freebie to people who complete the questionnaire, thereby encouraging them to do so.
Realistically, 48 hours from now, if you wished to, you could have identified a viable market for your coaching practice. Even if things take a little time, within the week you will know if this idea will work. You'll know if you need to think of another idea, or you will be building a business.
With business ideas, the reality is most will not work. Being able to quickly move through the bad ideas to find a good one is part of what makes a successful business person.
I am a firm believer in the power of the subconscious mind. If you believe it takes a long time to come up with a good idea and figure out if it's going to work for you, your subconscious is not going to come up with that many ideas. On the other hand, if deep down you know that you can come up with an idea and within a day or two have fully tested it, quite quickly your subconscious mind will learn to generate a steady stream of great ideas.
Once you have grasped the simplicity and power of this technique you could be having a casual conversation with friends on a Friday night – you know, the sort where you solve the problems of the world – when an idea comes up, and by Monday morning you can know if it is worth pursuing.
You will no longer be in those crowds of thousands of life coaches not sure what they're doing; you will know your market and be able to move forward.

Quick hit: Buckeyes wake up, seize win
The Buckeyes needed a few punches in the nose to wake up. Once aroused, Ohio State took it to Nebraska. The Buckeyes shot a robust 59 percent, showing great marksmanship from beyond the arc in nailing 52 percent (9-of-17). The Huskers looked tentative after a good first 10 minutes, committing 15 turnovers. And Ohio State scored 21 points off of those turnovers to go along with 13 fast break points. Add it all up, and you can see why Ohio State won by 21 points.

Aloha~ I know there's been lots of posts similar to this one, but after a while of digging I gave up!!
I'm a long-time runner (lots of marathons, halves, etc.), and ran through 8 months of my first pregnancy without trouble. But with baby #2 I seem to be struggling with energy levels and my daily runs are barely weekly runs these days. :(. Granted, I'm no spring chicken (late 30s), but still!! I'm almost into trimester 2 and hope some of my "oomph" will return, but any advice or suggestions for getting back on track (or just getting through!) would be greatly appreciated!!
Don't be hard on yourself! This is baby number two! I am not sure how old your first is, but for me. I had an 18 month old to chase around which made me far more exhausted than the days of being pregnant with no other worries besides myself.
Also, as hard as it is, especially for a seasoned runner like yourself, please listen to your body. You want to make sure that baby is getting all the oxygen they need...and if your heart is pumping too fast because your tired and pushing a run, baby will feel it.
Believe me, I know how bad it sucks! But 40 weeks in the long term of things (27 or less now for you, yay!) is a short period of time. Try things like the elliptical to keep your fitness.
Good luck and congrats!
