I've Been Recently Acquired
Written by | Shawnee Barton | 9:12 a.m., Feb 17, 2012
I feel a little funny writing about myself, but Jim Chute kindly encouraged me to tell you about an exhibition that I am delighted to be included in, so here we go.
Recent Acquisitions will be on view at The Athenaeum in La Jolla from February 18-March 24, 2012 and the opening Reception is tonight Friday, February 17 from 6:30 - 8:30 PM
There are notable stepping-stones in the career of an artist, as there are in any given profession. Seeing my name listed on the show's postcard alongside numerous art world giants was certainly a fun and notable moment for me.
Just thinking about my satirical series of hand embroidered Misfortune Cookies (which you can see above and below) hanging on the same wall as a William Wegman piece or residing in a room with a work by David Adey, the artist who made the awe-inspiring John Henry installation pictured below, gives me proverbial goose bumps.
I've also been joking with friends that I am considering adding a line to my resume that says something to the effect of "Once listed on the same postcard as Christian Marclay and Bruce Nauman." We all have to start somewhere.

About ProjectY
RELEASE DATE: Not Defined
STATUS: Phase 1...
SYSTEM(S): Mega Drive / Genesis, ++
It's ProjectY - the RPB you've been waiting for since the 90s! WIP @ 's Magical Game Factory.
Current Status (08/21/2014)The subscriptions for new investors has been locked down. However, current investors can still invest GEMS into the project.
The original intended release date has been missed but the game is still in steady development and will soon enter beta-testing phase. A new release date will be communicated soon, along with opening pre-orders.
Thank you for your patience.
The OriginsFor the first time ever, fans of retro consoles are getting exactly the game they want! And they want a RPB!
Investors, as they are called, have used their voting power to shape ProjectY to their own liking.
Their first poll result was to make a game for the Mega Drive/Genesis. Then came the decision to make the game a RPB (Beat 'em all, with elements of an RPG). The final big turn for the project was the setting, which the investors decided should be cyberpunk.
With these defining poll results, ProjectY started to take shape while additional minor polls followed. Development is currently ongoing; you can still join ProjectY and shape the game by voting, submitting your ideas and discussing the project on the boards!
40MEGObtained with fervor by the investors, we can guarantee the game will have a bare minimum 40 megabits cartridge. ProjectY is joining the small club of High Density Cartridges (also known as the "big, black cartridges"). This will be at least the second biggest Mega Drive/Genesis game ever, after WaterMelon's own Pier Solar! With this much storage at our disposal, we can make the ultimate 16-bit beat 'em all!
Also obtained by the investors, the game will feature four playable characters, one of them to be unlocked.
The ContextProjectY takes place in a post-apocalyptic world, set in an Asian high-tech metropolis. The last survivors of the nuclear war are divided into several classes, where the most powerful have the others by the balls. This has divided the governing bodies into several fractions, where ethnic mafias and a corrupt corporation are just a few of them! As you can see, this story is filled with many possible scenarios. It will demand lots of exploring and several playthroughs to get everything out of it.
Hello Visitor,
Subscriptions to that project have ended.
To invest in this project or view your current investment status, please sign-in or register.

Minisink grad rises to UConn expectations
When Stefanie Dolson first made her foray into the world of low carbs earlier this year, it was a diet.
However, these days, there's nothing painstaking about Dolson's regimen. There's not even any cheating. In other words, it's no longer a diet.
For Dolson, a junior at national power the University of Connecticut, it's a lifestyle. Bring on the whole-wheat pasta, fruits, salads and wraps. This is the new Stefanie, and Dolson, a 2010 Minisink Valley graduate, feels quicker and more energetic than she ever has.
"It's just made my game better in every way," said Dolson, UConn's starting center for three years. "I can do more on the court, I'm more versatile. Nobody forced me to do it. It's just something that was suggested. It started off as a diet, but now I don't consider it one. It's just how I eat."
Forget about the South Beach Diet. Dolson might want to market the Storrs, Conn., Diet. This season, Dolson is quicker getting up and down the floor, often leaving opposing post players behind. Her stamina has improved, allowing her to be more active and dominant on both sides of the floor.
Since she arrived to UConn, Dolson has worked on her conditioning. However, after last season, she took her workouts to another level. Count Dolson as a loyal follower of super trainer Shaun T's INSANITY workouts. During the summer, she cleared out her parents' living room to feel the INSANITY burn. She even took the DVD's on vacations. Dolson began the diet last March and stuck to it, giving up her guilty pleasures — brownies, cookies and candy. Her mom, Kristal, coached her through the summer.
Kristal Dolson knew her hard-working daughter was on to something when, over the summer, she asked Stefanie if she wanted to order a pizza for dinner one night. Stefanie may have been the first college kid to bypass the offer. Mom and daughter did make a pizza — with crust made out of cauliflower.
"In this basketball program, all you have to do is do what people did before you and you will have great success," UConn coach Geno Auriemma said. "Stefanie had great success as a freshman and as a sophomore and then you have what happened in the NCAA tournament really got her in the right mindset for the summer. She is a different person and a different player."
Added Auriemma: "This year, she is in the best shape of her life and in the best frame of mind I have ever seen her."
UConn's season ended last year with an 83-75 overtime loss to Notre Dame in the Final Four in Denver. In foul trouble, Dolson scored 20 points, but had problems adjusting to the altitude and was winded early. Auriemma believes that played a part in Dolson's offseason awakening.
The season is still young, UConn teams are measured by what they accomplish in March. However, Dolson, seeking her first national title, is off to a hot start. She is averaging 13 points and five rebounds and played, perhaps, the game of her life in the second-ranked Huskies' 81-50 win at Texas A&M on Nov. 18.
Dolson, a preseason All-Big East first-team selection, scored 24 points, which matched a career-high, on 11-of-15 shooting with six rebounds and five assists. She added 18 points against Colgate last Wednesday.
"I'm so proud of Stefanie, I've always been proud of her," Kristal said. "But the Texas A&M game, that was the whole package, that was like giving birth again. She just looked great and was moving so quick. I was so proud."
Fact Box
Stefanie on Geno
Not only has Stefanie Dolson flourished at national power UConn, she's survived one of the most demanding coaches in all of sports - Geno Auriemma.
Auriemma is bold, in-your-face and particularly hard on freshmen, wanting them to live up to his expectations, which have produced seven national titles.
"As a freshman, it's definitely a weird relationship you have with coach," Dolson said. "Are you in the dog house? Are you not? It's kind of back and forth. Some days he likes you, some days he doesn't."
However, Dolson has become sort of an Auriemma Whisperer, taming the iconic coach. She is now a junior and serves as one of UConn's leaders.
"I talk to him a lot off the court. I go into his office all the time in between classes," Dolson said. "You just have to talk to him. Try to get on more of a personal level than when you are a freshman. When you do that, that's when your relationship on the court gets better."

• As a sophomore, Dolson averaged 10.4 points and a team-high six rebounds. She was a Big East honorable mention selection and led UConn with 20 points in a Final Four loss to Notre Dame. Dolson made the Big East all-tournament team for the second straight year.
• In her freshman year, she averaged 10.2 points and 6.1 rebounds. She was named to the Big East all-rookie team and helped UConn to the Final Four.
• Dolson became the first local basketball player - boy or girl - to be named a McDonald's all-American in 2009. Only 24 players in the nation were picked. Dolson scored 12 points for the East squad in the prestigious game. She finished her career at Minisink Valley with 1,951 points and 1,607 rebounds.

Mon, 25 Apr 2016 12:03:34 -0700
San Diego Padres OF Hunter Renfroe was named the Pacific Coast League Player of the Week Monday, April 25, after hitting a home run in each of his past four games. There are also scouts who believe he is ready for the majors.
Fantasy Tip: The 24-year-old outfielder has a .339/.381/.661 slash line to start the season with Class AAA El Paso with 12 runs, four home runs and 10 RBI. Cavernous mixed and NL-only owners should take note of Renfroe and monitor his potential promotion to San Deigo. A speculative add now isn't out of the question if you have room to stash him, either.

Wuthering Heights
by Emily Brontë
Analysis: Trivia
Brain Snacks: Tasty Tidbits of Knowledge
Some people just can't get enough Brontë, in which case they become members of the Brontë Society, one of the most important literary societies in the English-speaking world. Formed in 1893, the group adores all things Brontë—and that's not just Emily, it's Charlotte and Anne, too. (Source)
A first edition of Wuthering Heights—published in 1847 under the pseudonym Ellis Bell, because the author feared she faced prejudice as a female writer—sold at an auction in London recently for $236,000. (Source)
In a 2007 survey, Wuthering Heights was rated the #1 greatest love story. The runners-up included Pride and Prejudice, Romeo and Juliet, Jane Eyre, and Gone with the Wind. Read all about it in the Guardian's article "Emily Brontë hits the heights in poll to find greatest love story."

We had about 7,000 shares traded, then boom over 300k. Where'd all this volume come from so fast?
It can be done. I was in FFH when they finally broke in the upper 90s. But, as with FFH, you need management to treat shorts like lice. That's why I love the special dividend. Not as much for the $, but more for the electro-shock factor on our shorty cousins.
people have made that exact same statement abouts shorts for over a year now, they don't budge, their mean mugs with a thick stomach
sooner or later bke is going to have 0 volume lol, damn its like a ghost town in the volume numbers..
Is Yahoo wrong the amount of shares traded today? 65k @ 12:30pm? Where's the volume?
My Schwab " Street Smart" shows 50,300 @ 11:12 am
yeah i see..57,900ish current time... another weak day and underformance from buckle
That's interesting. The quote of BKE here on Yahoo, shows 359,000. Is that stuck on the total volume number from Friday? Earlier it showed about 7,000 when I posted. Then the big jump.

PRACTICAL TRAVELER; Web Air Deals: Caveat Surfer
By BOB TEDESCHI
Published: April 16, 2000
A FEW months ago, I struck gold on the Internet: a coast-to-coast round-trip flight to Oakland for $208 after taxes, to attend a friend's wedding. I hit the ''confirm'' button on Southwest Airlines' Web site and gloated about it to all my friends, who exhibited the proper amount of envy.
The other shoe dropped somewhere over Texas, when I realized I'd misunderstood the travel itinerary on the site, which listed ''PHX/3'' under the list of stops. I assumed that meant the plane stopped only in Phoenix -- maybe for three hours, but who cares? The printed confirmation Southwest mailed to me gave me no reason to doubt this logic.
In fact, I stopped in Memphis, then Phoenix, then Ontario, Calif., before heading to Oakland, where I arrived with a sore backside and a renewed hatred for salted peanuts. Our wry flight attendant tried to lift the cabin's spirits on the last leg. ''In the event of a water landing, remember: kick, paddle, kick, paddle -- alllllll the way until you reach that shore,'' she told us.
I barely cracked a smile. And when I finally reached Oakland, I greeted my friend with all the warmth of a Soprano. I was toast. I blamed the Internet.
But since I was just as much to blame as the Web, I will be back. I may not hit the buy button quite as quickly next time, but given the increasing ranks of the online air fare discounters, there will still be plenty of good deals available.
In fact, online travel executives and experts said that consumers could expect this year to be the high point to date for discount air fare offerings online, as newcomers to the low-price travel category vie with the airlines, who are working feverishly to convert their customers to Internet booking.
Primarily because of that competition, sites have improved their features significantly in the past several months. In addition to offering low rates on flights you might actually consider booking -- as opposed to, say, the Milwaukee-to-Duluth February special -- airlines and others have made it easier to check flight information with just a few clicks.
In short, industry experts said comparison shopping would increasingly pay off -- if consumers will accept higher degrees of risk and lower levels of customer service, and plenty of surfing time.
''It's definitely a buyer's market online,'' said Laurie Berger, editor of Consumer Reports Travel Letter. ''You just have to be a smart buyer.''
I tried not to take that as a slight.
The Cheap Seats
Any education in discount travel begins with a short course in yield management, the airline term for determining how many seats to sell at what cost. In general, airlines know they can't sell every seat at the high prices business travelers pay on short notice, so they reserve some seats for the high-price customers and some for buyers of midrange scheduled fares.
The rest of the seats are often sold to consolidators, who buy the cheap tickets in bulk at widely varying discounts, and resell them. Because different airlines will have difficulty selling different routes, there is no set range for the number of seats an airline will reserve for consolidators.
Whatever the quantity, though, the cheapest online tickets are often available either through virtual travel agents that have established relationships with consolidators, or through the consolidators themselves. Lowestfare.com, for instance, is the consolidator for T.W.A., and is expanding its offering of consolidator tickets through agreements with other airlines, analysts said.
On the other hand, Cheaptickets .com works directly with a number of airlines to offer their discounted tickets, as does Priceline.com. With Priceline, the airlines set aside some discounted seats, and allow the company to sell a seat if it is within 30 percent of the lowest price the airline has ever sold it for. Priceline checks to see if it can buy the ticket for less than the customer's requested price, to ensure some profit. If it can, it buys the ticket and sells it to the consumer. ''You might think you're naming your own price for a ticket on Priceline, but you're really not,'' said Ms. Berger. Rather, she said, the company simply agrees to buy seats from the major carriers at cut-rate prices, and sells the seats for any price above a certain threshold. Any bid below that level is declined.
No Refunds
Consumers should approach consolidators and those who sell on their behalf with caution. Since they do not own an unlimited inventory of seats, they do all they can to discourage customers from changing flights. In fact, for a number of them, including Cheaptickets.com and 1Travel.com, domestic tickets are nonrefundable, and the flights cannot be changed once the ticket is bought.
These terms are typically offered before you buy the ticket online, so read every possible link that may contain such language before entering credit card information.
Furthermore, the final prices for discounted ticket are not always obvious, analysts said. Cheaptickets .com recently listed a flight from Hartford to San Francisco on US Airways for $285. On the ''check availability'' page, the flight suddenly cost $310.50, not including $3.95 shipping and handling.

Step 2
Registration is also required with the Interlibrary Loan office each semester. To register for the semester, send an email message from your GSU email account to email@example.com. Include the following information in the message:
- Your Campus ID
- Your complete home mailing address
- Your academic department
- Your student status (undergraduate or graduate)

Books are checked out to your GIL account on the day they are shipped. The original due date is six weeks from the date of shipment for undergraduates, or the end of the current semester for graduate students.
Two online renewals are available through your GIL account for books not requested by another patron.
There is no charge for this service, but regular recall and overdue policies and fine rates apply. Books returned via UPS should be received at GSU by their due dates to avoid an overdue status.

RTKL's approach to DesignLAB was to create a suite that would maximize flexibility in order to accommodate the needs of various tenants and work styles. We set out to create a bright and welcoming environment that would attract not only current market occupants in Crystal City but also appeal to the next generation of tenants. We explored forward thinking ideas and concepts that define the future of Workplace and executed them in a manner consistent with RTKL's commitment to quality performance-driven design.
The solution is a suite that is successful in achieving all of these goals. The open space and warm palette offers a comfortable environment that can easily be adapted to reflect the tenants brand aesthetic and support the changing needs of its employees. The furniture solution is flexible, manages the demands of evolving technologies, and has the ability to be reconfigured to allow for expansion and contraction of the workforce. The LED illumination in the open office area can be easily rearranged to get light where it's needed should the furniture change. Finally, the arrangement of individual and collaborative spaces forms a workplace that would help any tenant work better, smarter, do more with less, and support their business objectives.

Where do you go when your business needs to expand? Swing space, growth space, new space—it's all Next Space.
Next Space—Perkins+Will's suite in the Design Lab project—provides a flexible, sustainable and dynamic office environment for a variety of business types. The intent was to create a tenant space that can evolve with the needs of the tenant. The reception area provides space for formal entry, informal socializing, and full-staff meeting area with simple transformations. The open office area is laid out with lighting and mechanical service so a variety of work space configurations can be accommodated—turning open work area to private offices can be as simple as putting up a modest wall. Dedicated collaboration spaces are distributed throughout the space, with walls and furniture that become canvasses to write on.
Next Space includes many innovative, sustainable products and systems that create a healthier, more energy-efficient working environment. The combination of LED and fluorescent light fixtures keep energy use low. Products with high recycled content have been used throughout the space, and low-VOC paints contribute to a healthy indoor air quality.
With furniture provided by Steelcase, the bold colors and energetic feel of Next Space create a positive, productive work environment.
OTJ Architects worked with Vornado to design a compact, well-organized space appropriate for a variety of tenants who require a combination of enclosed and open offices. The philosophy employed during the design process was one consistent with OTJ's mission—to work collaboratively to achieve successful results. Because we did not have a formal tenant to explain needs and preferences, we focused on an average of current tenant requirements. This average resulted in a space that is dense but comfortable, with a sophisticated aesthetic.
As the prospective tenant enters the space, they will first notice the "hive" feature wall separating reception from the office area. This wall is a key component of the design because it highlights the delineating edge between public and private space. Within the public space are the reception area with reception desk, adjacent conference room, open pantry and direct line of sight to natural daylight. Moving from public into private spaces, there is a straightforward organization to the space—five enclosed offices (two along the window line), room for 12 benching-style workstations and touchdown space for three. The crisp, clean aesthetic is one that will appeal to tenants of varying demographics, styles of work and professional missions.
The "Picture It" space designed by SmithGroupJJR is an open, light-filled modern workplace that promotes collaboration and flexibility. Upon entering the space, one is immediately engaged by a large community pantry/table and greeted by the more formal reception area. Taking advantage of the expansive windows and its corner location, a view to the outside is found in every seat. Formal workspaces feature a mix of open and private offices. Two rows of an open benching system separated by an elongated table for group-work will accommodate approximately 12 employees, with an additional five private offices. Flexible workspace areas are located throughout to accommodate mobile workers and guests. Pops of color and texture are incorporated through the carpet, wallcoverings and furniture which adds a uniqueness while maintaining practicality.
The work environment is steadily moving towards spaces that provide users with maximum flexibility and a range of task oriented options to help satisfy personal work preferences.
In this constantly evolving work environment, notions of ownership are challenged giving way to FREE ADDRESS solutions where users can customize their work experience on any given day.
New architectural solutions must keep up with the modern workplace. Fewer walls, more transparency, and shared spaces are some of the design strategies used to enhance the modern work experience
Our DesignLab entry is called WORK4TANK. A combination workplace + think tank, it is designed to showcase the evolution of the workplace towards an environment of total collaboration, openness, and visibility.
B10ck is leasing through the power of design. It not just a design, but a leasing concept that offers an adaptable modular office framework supporting infinite scalable variations. Through B10ck, a tenant has immediately imaginable choices, customization, and community. This concept can be applied in various orders of magnitude: from the scale of the neighborhood, to the building, to a full floor, to a single suite that uses modular furniture and custom branding within the space.
B10ck is Choices, Community, Customization...All built within a Kit of parts.B10ck is built on a standard building grid system using modular walls and a ceiling mounted power bar supplying power/data to your space.B10ck can be easily and quickly reconfigured for each tenant, offering a lower cost and faster alternative to traditional leasing.

University's Picasso Fetches $21.9 Million

Interest in Pablo Picasso's portraits of his lover, Marie-Thérèse Walter, continues to exceed art-world expectations. In London on Tuesday, the rarely seen "Jeune Fille Endormie" fetched £13.5 million (US$21.9 million) at auction — 13% above the upper end of Christie's presale estimate.
That was the second-highest price realized at the Tuesday auction (exceeded only by the £18 million paid for a Picasso portrait of his next lover), good news for the University of Sydney, which will use the proceeds from the painting's sale for scientific research.
"The sale of this remarkable work is the result of one donor's extraordinary generosity who said, 'This painting is going to change the lives of many people,'" Dr. Michael Spence, vice-chancellor of the University of Sydney, said following the auction. "They were right."
An anonymous donor gave "Jeune Fille Endormie" to the university last year on the condition that it be sold to raise money. Painted in 1935 using an array of bold colors, the expressionist work shows Marie-Thérèse asleep.
According to the university, the work was acquired by Walter P. Chrysler Jr., son of the founder of Chrysler Corp., soon after Picasso finished painting it, and changed hands only once more until last year. Though it was shown in public a few times in the U.S. between 1939 and 1941, it has been held in a private collection ever since.
"It has been an absolute delight to have handled the sale of this wonderful painting. From the moment I first saw it when I visited the University of Sydney I was captivated by the variety of its beautiful colors, its richly textured surface and the pristine condition of the painting," said Olivier Camu, Christie's international director of Impressionist and Modern art. "Not surprisingly there has been a great deal of interest in this marvelous work, which has been added to by the story of what the university will do with the proceeds."
Tuesday's sale came just over a year after Picasso's "Nude, Green Leaves and Bust," part of a series that the Spanish artist painted of Marie-Thérèse, set a record for a work of art at auction by selling at Christie's for US$106.5 million.

Background The effects of antidepressants for treating depressive disorders have been overestimated because of selective publication of positive trials. Reanalyses that include unpublished trials have yielded reduced effect sizes. This in turn has led to claims that antidepressants have clinically insignificant advantages over placebo and that psychotherapy is therefore a better alternative. To test this, we conducted a meta-analysis of studies comparing psychotherapy with pill placebo.
Method Ten 10 studies comparing psychotherapies with pill placebo were identified. In total, 1240 patients were included in these studies. For each study, Hedges' g was calculated. Characteristics of the studies were extracted for subgroup and meta-regression analyses.
Results The effect of psychotherapy compared to pill placebo at post-test was g = 0.25 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.14–0.36, I 2 = 0%, 95% CI 0–58]. This effect size corresponds to a number needed to treat (NNT) of 7.14 (95% CI 5.00–12.82). The psychotherapy conditions scored 2.66 points lower on the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) than the placebo conditions, and 3.20 points lower on the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). Some indications for publication bias were found (two missing studies). We found no significant differences between subgroups of the studies and in meta-regression analyses we found no significant association between baseline severity and effect size.
Conclusions Although there are differences between the role of placebo in psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy research, psychotherapy has an effect size that is comparable to that of antidepressant medications. Whether these effects should be deemed clinically relevant remains open to debate.

Working as a Probation Officer? Any good?
Hey guys,
So because of the massive drought of good cop jobs up here in Alaska, and the need to start pulling in a paycheck (done next spring with my degree and can't leave Alaska for about three more years due to the woman finishing her education), I put in to be a Probation/Parole Officer up here. Few guys at the University PD I work at all have recommended it. However, I know very little what it's like working as a Parole Officer. Anyone done this? Is it even considered a "sworn" position? I know it's armed and it has a six-week academy. Is it any good on the 'ole resume, as I'm looking at moving to the Pacific Northwest to try and land a cop gig? Just looking for a little info in case I get tapped for an interview.
I did that job for 2 years and it will greatly help you move into another law enforcement position in the future, you will just have to attend another full academy (I have done 3 now).
The job is very different depending on the state, Nevada, South Carolina, and Oklahoma Probation/Parole are FULL POLICE OFFICERS! There you attend the regular police academy and they have the same arrest powers as their State Police have. Nevada's is actually a division of their state police and you can move from Probation/Parole to Highway Patrol and back since its all one agency.
Other states, mostly in the north east, Probation/Parole are not even armed and they are more like social workers than cops, most states fall somewhere in the middle. You will do more paperwork than you can imagine possible, you will have to wear many hats and deal long term with offenders you will not like. The up side is its mostly 9-5, weekend and holidays off.Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
In California it is a fully sworn position. I like it, but it's not for everybody. You don't deal with somebody for 5 minutes and then move on, you deal with them for 5 years! The great thing is that the clients have basically lost all of their rights, so you don''t have to worry about pesky little things like warrants or probable cause. It's a good career. Here it requires a bachelors degree, and the CORE training is 5 weeks.He who feels punctured must once have been a bubble. --Lao Tzu
Yea, from what I've heard up here in Alaska Probation officers hold special arresting authority and are armed. The academies are no problem, I actually like attending that kind of stuff. I have heard it's a ton of paperwork. Is there any correlation between what you do in the Probation side and the LEO side of the house? What skills and attributes make the best officers? Wondering how I should present myself, I've got a lot of experience in community programming/management and networking with social services from my days working in Residence Life at the University.
Skills and attributes that make the best officer? You're hybrid and work in the shadows of the court system. Not many people in the public know just how important your role will be to the community and the criminal justice system. You're a hybrid because you're not full law enforcement, you're also half social worker. You will be involved with people from beginning to the end of their conditions of probation until they successfully complete probation - or when they don't...(violations, new charges). You will be doing mostly office work - preparing defendants every month ( you have a caseload) of "X" amount of defendants....you will need to supervise these folks, lots of talky talky....but you will learn to understand people more....You cannot view every defendant as scum. A lot are on different charges, felonies, misd. whatever....
Your job is to make sure and ensure #1 priority - keeping the community safe.
You're supervising criminals, remember that...but, also remember that if you don't give these people who give you respect, none - you will have a hard and difficult career ahead of you. On the other hand, you should never EVER let the defendant believe you to be vulnerable as they will step all over you. Remember who you're dealing with. Don't treat the people you have to supervise for years like dirt, and good chances are if they were arrested again or placed back on probation...guess who gets to supervise this guy once again? You! You will prepare a lot of reports to the court. There are incentives such as early termination to whatever (depending on how Alaska works) not sure with all.....you will prepare the courts with expirations, petition to modify (get used to this), Probation violations, Petitions to revoke, combination reports, pre-sentencing information or we call them PSIs.....the list goes on.
Prepare to be overwhelmed with information with this job, you will never see more acronyms in your lifetime until you step into probation.
Don't let that get to you...after your academy, you really won't know jack crap...because there was soo much information....but when you get the hang of stuff and work with POs who have been there, done that...you'll be swinging like a pro.
Another thing, the biggest thing you may have is flexibility. I make my own hours, I come in whenever I want. I leave whenever I want. I take whatever lunch time I have, I flex to the next week or I shorten the first....the scheduling has got to be the best. Remember though, you have your office visits, field visits, training (always certain amount of training you have to complete every year) and court.
Theres too much to list and I'm writing a novel to you.....now if you think it's all report writing, you're wrong. Search and seizures are pretty cool and you always work with your fellow law enforcement brothers/sisters - in conducting arrests and search and seizures. You run bookings, you run crim.backgrounds, fields, make field arrests etc. etc. Courts not really cool.....Def.attorneys love to grill unprepared POs.
If you have any more questions - just PM me, I'll be more than happy to help out.

Goddamn, this is why I love these forums. Absolutely fantastic information. Immense amount of help to me, I have much better idea of how to approach the position now. If I do get tapped for an interview with DOC, I'll be PMing you with some questions. This position looks like it is better preparation to be a real cop then I thought. I'm really hoping I get the job now. Looks like it will be a good slot with stuff that I've been doing (academic focus is in behavioral economics).
Thanks for the info and I'd love to hear any other additional thoughts or comments anyone has!
Well done, MCAPO! Talon, feel free to PM me if you wish too. I have perspectives from both line staff and Administration.He who feels punctured must once have been a bubble. --Lao Tzu

I suppose it's different in all states. I have had both as witnesses and it's an entirely different job. I don't believe that probation officers are armed. Most that I know don't carry at all.
Parole officers, OTOH, carry and have full arrest powers. It's a much more dangerous job as many of them have to go out and serve warrants for violations of parole. For violations of probation, they get a notice to appear at a VOP hearing and if they don't show up a warrant will issue. But the probation officer themselves do not go out and serve the warrant.
"Jerry, just remember, it's not a lie if you believe it". George Constanza.
In Alaska, I guess they are Peace Officers and work either Parole or Probation. I think my lack of a complete degree will hurt (although by the time the Academy roles around, my degree will be about two classes away from being complete) but hopefully the experience makes up for it. One of the cops I work with was saying to get on with the Felony Warrant team, I guess it's the DOC SWAT-like team that does high-risk warrant serves.

The other posters have given you all the information that I could. PPO in Iowa are mostly NOT sworn or armed, HOWEVER there is a sworn High Risk Unit in each area of the state that are certified LEO's
The "normal" PPO is a mixture of social worker and correctional officer with a HIGH emphisis on social worker.
The "normal" caseload PPO will do pre sentence investigations and submitt them to the court prior to sentencing as an advisory to the sentencing judge. Then they will supervise offenders that are placed on probation rather than prison...............the PPO will also supervise offenders that are placed on parole after their prison sentence.
EXPECT to see a lot of UA bottles........................and to watch a lot of offienders peeing in them!!!!!!!!!!
But that is Iowa and you are in Alaska....................from the sounds of it the PPO's up there are also true cops......................Trust me you will learn a lot working as a PPO-------------------you might even like it and make a career of it
I'm actually having a hard time finding out if POs up here are sworn or not. The cops I work with tell me they are armed and the website says they are full "Peace Officers". I am assuming they have only special arrest authority. The academy is only six-weeks long but it has pepper spray, DT and firearms so I'm guessing they carry like regular cops. The job looks really awesome with regular schedule hours which would be perfect to take the last few class to get my BA, start the Graduate degree and join the National Guard while I wait for the woman to finish her schooling so I can go down to Seattle.
Really appreciate all the PMs and information people have sent. Definitely some fantastic individuals out there! I'll listen to any advice anyone has!

Probation and Parole officers in Alaska are certified by the Alaska Police Standards Council (APSC) and have an exciting yet complex job serving both the people of Alaska and those they supervise to promote public safety and offender habilitation.
The primary responsibility of an Adult Probation/Parole Officer is to supervise adult felony offenders under the jurisdiction of the Superior Court for the State of Alaska Board of Parole in accordance with Alaska State Statutes, Titles 12 and 13.
Key responsibilities include:
* Conducting visits and searches. in field, home, and office
* Verifying current compliance with all probation/parole conditions
* Continual evaluation of offender risk in the community of re-offending
* Intervening to prevent, offset, or address an offender's non-compliance
* Evaluating the severity of an offender's violations/non-compliance, reviewing appropriate Policy & Procedure, and determining required action.
* Preparing and filing probation and parole revocations.
* Writing full and updated pre-sentence reports
* Testifying before the Court, Parole Board, and Grand Jury
* Maintaining case files
* Interviewing victims and individuals in the community
* Preparing pre-sentence investigation reports and parole violation reports.
* Using crisis intervention and counseling techniques to assist and direct offenders
We are looking to hire someone with the following demonstrated strengths:
* Excellent case management skills
* A pattern of reliable behaviors on the job
* Excellent team-work and interpersonal skills
* An ability to work effectively and calmly with individuals who are often offensive, upset, hostile, and dangerous
If you possess the characteristics outlined above, we want to hear from you. The Division of Probation and Parole offers a dynamic, team-centered, and professional working environment, along with the following starting benefits:
* On the job training and the opportunity to attend a Probation Officer Academy in Palmer

* Optional dependent and health care flexible spending accounts
* Retirement programs with a wide variety of investment options
* Vacation leave of 15 hours per month with an accrual rate increase based on time served.
* Bargaining-unit negotiated scheduled raises
* Numerous opportunities for training and promotion
Yea, but they get a Probation Officer certificate from APSC, I thought I read somewhere that they are peace officers but I can't find it. Not really sure what the difference is between a peace officer and a police officer. I'm surprised they are actual LEO, the academy is only six-weeks compared to Sitka's 16-weeks of pure hell and information (according to those that have been).I have a million hats.
Since you've noted that you want to be a police officer - sure this is a good step if you want to go to working for a police agency or SO - in fact, I've seen it opposite for the most part - ex PD and ex SO who either are retiring or received their 4 year degree wanted to settle down or try something different - it's all good. I've seen a lot of POs go fed though.....
Don't expect to be kicking down doors and chasing after people or whatever. I remember I had a warrant out for someone, was out on the field and saw that person at their last location, (I was going to the same apartment complex to a different defendant's home) and he saw me and ran. I just laughed and called it in, I'm not going to risk anything for a petty PV warrant - from an old drug possession charge - he was apprehended later by warrants.
And let's just say you want to do all law enforcement within probation - for my county in AZ - we have Warrants division or Fugitive Apprehension - they work alongside Federal Marshals a lot and also DPS (department of public safety) task force and other local PD specialized criminal assignments and fugitive task force -
They are also called in for special gang detail - it's very useful to have probation working alongside all other units as it gives them the opportunity to find a subject and realize that if they are on probation/parole - all bets are off....
Don't hold your breath though....most warrants division within probation require the PO hired within to have years of experience first and foremost, and also in a specialized case load such as Domestic Violence, Sex Offenders, Intensive Probation, etc. etc. reason being - more experience and for those field, it's more training to deal with some of the worst of the worst. I wouldn't have it any other way. For me though - it's going to be standard for awhile. I don't think I could spend more time baby sitting adults than what I already do with my standard supervision.....once or twice a month is good enough....but 4 times a week for each, forget about it.
[QUOTE=Ex Army MP;1906631]I suppose it's different in all states. I have had both as witnesses and it's an entirely different job. I don't believe that probation officers are armed. Most that I know don't carry at all.QUOTE]

In NJ Parole Officers are cops (arrest powers, carry on/off, police & fire pension, etc), and go to a police academy alongside their municipal counterparts.
Probation Officers are not considered sworn LEOs, and have limited authority, mostly reguarding their caseloads when on duty. They do not carry.
Parole, and Probation are two completely separate entities working for separate branches of Gov't. Both have a vital function in LE, and are excellent resources IMO.

Well, faxing the office my college transcripts today, they are trying to determine if I meet "minimum qualifications". At least they are looking at my application, I guess...
Also, slots just opened up locally for an Animal Control Officer and a Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Officer. Our ACOs are contracted from a major security corporation and certified state peace officers, the CVEO is unarmed and not certified in any way. Opinions on those two jobs? Are they good to work while trying to get a cop gig or should I stay away?I have a million hats.

Down Here in GA we are Sworn, Peace Officer Status, Armed on and Off Duty. and Have arrest authority. We go through an academy, I don't do alot of office work more field work as I work an Intensive Caseload which consists of two officers, I just happen to be the one out running curfew checks, unannounced searches and field visits and surveillance and arrests when need be. All states seem to be different it just depends on where you live. This site actually shows how states differ http://www.appa-net.org/eweb/Resourc...s/NFS_2006.pdf. I think it would be a great stepping stone if wanting to become a Police Officer, it gives you great experience dealing with the same ppl you will deal with on the street.Line is ready. Shooters ready. Attention!
What do you guys think about working Animal Control? If this probation gig falls through, should I go for it or stay away?I have a million hats.

Bro try to get on with probation, do some time there and then go to Fed Probation. Get into fed before age 37
Well, this sucks. My university took so long to get my current transcript together (more then three days) that the probation office moved ahead with testing and skipped me. I am kinda ****ed off because the job posting said transcripts weren't needed until the interview process but the office wanted it faxed to them in a day because they were under such a tight deadline to hire. So I guess I'll just go back to school full-time, ship off to Army Guard basic and then try to get onto an academy fall of '10. Or I could apply for the open Animal Control position but I dunno if that would be good experience or not.I have a million hats.

3 days for official transcripts is unreasonable, and I doubt even possible!

Folks, I apologize if this is old news, but I only just discovered: you
can run the JAWS screen reader software in demo mode for free. (MAGic
and OpenBook offer a demo mode as well.) There's no expiration to the
trial, but you can only use JAWS for 40 minutes at a time when you're in
demo mode. Still, you can't beat free, and no amount of speculation or
adherence to best practices replaces using assistive technology
Sarah Kampman
Sarah Kampman:
>you can run the JAWS screen reader software in demo mode for free.
Totally agree that it's worth trying a screen reader to find out a bit about
how hard they are to use. (Remember to switch your screen OFF when you're
using it).
Only, don't confuse occasional/demonstration use of a screen reader with the
way that someone who uses it all the time would use it. For example, a
long-term user will:
- 'speed listen', using the screen reader at a much faster speed
- become familiar with some of the many different keyboard shortcuts
- be used to swapping modes
As with any complex program, long-term users tend to be very proficient at
the parts they are familiar with but not necessarily with every feature.
I wrote an article on this problem a few years ago:
"Don't get bitten by JAWS; it deserves respect"
Caroline Jarrett
"Forms that work: Designing web forms for usability" Foreword by Steve Krug
Hi Sarah, thank you for the hint...This is very helpful!!! :-)

ROCHESTER — Police have arrested former reporter Conor Makem on 13 additional charges of invasion of privacy after identifying five more victims in pictures taken by a hidden camera in a women's bathroom at Merchants' Plaza.
Rochester Police Chief Michael Allen said Makem, 45, formerly of Dover but now living in Amesbury, Mass., turned himself into police around 9:45 a.m. today.
Makem now faces a total of 25 charges of invasion of privacy and one felony count of falsification of physical evidence.
On Thursday, Oct. 17, Makem was charged with the felony and 12 counts of invasion of privacy related to one victim. The felony charge is related to Makem allegedly destroying the camera hidden in the ceiling of the bathroom after it was discovered by a woman using the facility.
He was released on $10,000 bail for those charges.
The chief said it was unknown when Makem turned himself what the bail would be and whether he made bail or not would determine the next immediate course of action.
Affidavits seeking the search warrant on Makem's house in Dover, obtained by Foster's Daily Democrat last week, indicated investigators also found images of child pornography on his computer in addition to photos of subjects in the bathroom.
Makem was a part-time reporter for the weekly Rochester Times and Foster's Daily Democrat and worked out of the news bureau of the Times and Foster's located in the Merchants' Plaza building. Foster's publishes the Rochester Times.
Chief Allen said the investigation continues in efforts to identify move of the victims of the bathroom photos. He said he was unable to speak about the status of the child porn investigation while it is ongoing. He has said he expects the investigation to take a significant amount of time

Under Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, Japan's chauvinistic surge has inflicted unmistakable damage on its national brand image.
Regions / Japan
The lumbering aircraft carrier known as the United States should be executing a pivot that lives up to its name: a shift from the martial to the pacific.
The Obama administration's "Pacific Pivot" is wreaking environmental havoc on the pristine ecosystems of the Asia-Pacific region.
If it weren't for decades of Western-backed political and economic repression, the Philippines might have joined the Asian Tigers years ago.
It's a critical time to support Japanese efforts to oppose Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's nationalist refashioning of his country.
Thomas Friedman once said the hidden hand of the market needs the hidden fist of the military. The TPP and the Obama administration's Pacific Pivot pack both.
Parents and students in Japan's "North Korean" schools struggle to maintain their identity in an increasingly hostile environment.
Susan Rice presented a plan in her Georgetown speech on how to make a deal with Beijing.
China has grown more willing to assert historical claims to its sphere of influence, but it would be a mistake to regard this as "aggression" that requires an American response.
Is a green energy revolution on the global agenda?

Man dies attempting to rescue two others
Published: Monday, January 8, 2007 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, January 7, 2007 at 11:20 p.m.
JACKSONVILLE — A 25-year-old man training to be an emergency medical technician was struck and killed by a car as he rushed across a highway to aid victims in a fatal crash, authorities said.
Lezerick R. Williams and his longtime friend, Neil Hall, both of Jacksonville, were crossing Interstate 295 about 2:30 a.m. Saturday to get to a deadly head-on collision when they were hit by a Chevrolet Malibu, Florida Highway Patrol Lt. Bill Leeper said.
Williams died at the scene. Hall, also 25, was in critical condition at a local hospital.
"It's how he's been all of his life," Williams' father said of his son's desire to help. Henry Williams said his son was training to be an emergency medical technician.
Two people were killed in the initial head-on collision. Caralisa L. Mack, 35, of Kingsland, Ga., was driving south in a northbound lane of I-295 when she collided with a Jeep Grand Cherokee, Leeper said. Mack and the Jeep's driver, 26-year-old Amanda Higgs of Yulee, were killed. Two passengers in the Jeep were critically injured.
Leeper said it was unclear why Mack was driving the wrong way on the highway.

The second volume in the Fields of Battle trilogy, part of the Count of Trall series.
Kieldrou, the Count of Trall, is in the kingdom of Luourn, far from his southern island home. With his help his cousin, Raegin, has recently been restored to the throne of Luourn, the usurper and his wicked supporters killed. With peace restored in Luourn, Kieldrou now plans to return Trall, hoping that he can persuade Rhianne, the woman he loves, to come with him.
At the same time war is brewing in the south, and no-one appears to be heeding the warnings that Kieldrou and his followers have given. All the more reason for the Count to get home as quickly as possible.
However, deep in the heart of the wasteland known as the Great Og, dwells a mysterious sect known as the Brotherhood of Sheoleth. The priests of this cult have been watching, and following, the Count of Trall, pursuing a feud that stretches back five hundred years. They have already tried to kill him twice, and now they have even more reason to slay him, for Kieldrou carries what they perceive to be a precious relic of their twisted faith.
When the priests of Sheoleth strike, and carry off not only the relic but also Rhianne, Kieldrou must leave the fate of the southern kingdoms for a while, choosing instead to follow his devil-worshiping foes, even if it leads to his death. Will he enter the jaws of hell alone, or can his friends, alerted to his plight and guided to the Great Og by a young Trallian priestess, come to his aid in time? And will they still be able to thwart the Hussanian plans for war? As their foes close in on all sides, their greatest enemy appears to be time itself!
