Stetson University Director of Athletics Jeff Altier announced Manoj Khettry as the new head coach of the Stetson women's soccer team on Wednesday, becoming just the third person in program history to helm the Hatters.
"I'd like to thank Associate Athletic Director for Internal Operation/SWA Alicia Queally, Athletic Director Jeff Altier and the search committee for offering me such a tremendous opportunity to be the next head women's soccer coach at Stetson, and for having faith in me to lead the program," Khettry said after accepting the position.
"From the moment I began learning about Stetson, I knew it was a special place," Khettry continued. "But after meeting with Dr. Wendy Libby and Athletic Director Jeff Altier, I was so impressed with their vision for the future of Stetson and Stetson Athletics, that I knew I wanted to be a part of what they are creating."
Khettry comes to DeLand with a wealth of experience, most recently holding the position of Head Women's Soccer Coach at St. Bonaventure in New York. He coached the Bonnies for seven seasons, leading the team to five straight Atlantic 10 Tournaments from 2008 to 2012. St. Bonaventure was one of only three A-10 schools to qualify for the Atlantic 10 Tournament from 2008-2012 (Dayton and Charlotte being the other two). Named the A-10 Coach of the Year in 2008, Khettry also led St. Bonaventure to its first conference semifinals in 2010.
"I'd also like to thank St. Bonaventure Athletic Director Steve Watson, Associate Athletic Director for Internal Operations Steve Campbell and the many wonderful people and players who represented St. Bonaventure," Khettry said. "Without them, the successes we achieved would never have happened."
"I am so happy to have Manoj join our staff," Altier said. "He comes to us with a tremendous amount of head coaching experience, successful head coaching experience, especially at a resource challenged institution. He's going to come into Stetson with more resources available to him than he has had in the past. I have full confidence that he's going to take our program to heights that we have never reached before."
Khettry's Bonnies also excelled in the classroom during his tenure. St. Bonaventure qualified for the NSCAA Team Academic Award six years in a row from 2007 to 2012. Twice during that time the Bonnies were in the Top 10 overall (2007-08: Top 5, 2008-09: Top 10). His players also earned a multitude of honors on the pitch, as the Bonnies had a First Team All-Conference selection five straight years, from 2008 to 2012.
Prior to taking over the reins at St. Bonaventure, Khettry held assistant coaching positions at the University of Dayton and the University of Missouri (2001-2003). He was with the Flyers from 2003 to 2006 as the team's top assistant. Responsible for recruiting, team training, goalkeeper training, scouting reports and video, Dayton won the A-10 regular season championship and tournament championship, and earned a berth to the NCAA Tournament twice while Khettry was aboard (2003, 2004).
Khettry's first job in college coaching was as a graduate assistant at Miami of Ohio from 1991-94. From there, Khettry went on to become the Director of Coaching of the Cincinnati Classics from 1994-1998. There he was responsible for hiring coaches for more than 30 teams, creating a club-wide training curriculum and overseeing the administration of the club.
Khettry then became the assistant coach at California. He worked with the Golden Bears for one season, before moving on to work with adidas America as the US Youth Soccer/NSCAA Promotions Manager from 1999-2001. From 2005 to 2007, Khettry also spent time as an assistant coach for Region 2 ('86/'87 age group, '91 age group). Khettry has been involved with Region 1 as a staff coach since 2006.
A former National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) All-American, and three-time NSCAA All-Region honoree while playing at Earlham College in Indiana, Khettry graduated from the college with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1988. He also holds a Master of Arts in Spanish Language and Literature from Miami University of Ohio. Khettry received his "A" License from US Soccer in January 1995 and holds the NSCAA Advanced National Diploma, which he received in January 1994.
"Stetson has a wonderful academic reputation, a beautiful campus, a first-class facility and wonderful resources and support," Khettry concluded. "I am excited about what we can achieve in the future years and I am excited to begin to get to know the players and get to work. I see tremendous potential for the program and hopefully we can pursue excellence and achievement, and make them part of the culture and fabric of the program for years to come. I'm excited to become a Hatter!"

A Greek maiden whose weaving ability was the marvel of the ancient world. When Athena heard about it she challenged Arachne to a contest. When the girl's tapestry was the equal to the goddess', she became angry and tore Arachne's weaving to shreds. The girl became terrified of what Athena might do and hanged herself. Athena became regretful of her actions and turned Arachne into a spider, so that she might weave all that she wished.
Arachne was a weaving wonder.l

One of politicians' favorite responses to news of massive job losses in an area or industry is to throw training money at the victims. Laid-off workers will be re-educated so they can get some of those high-tech, high-pay jobs we've all heard so much about, government officials say.
Anecdotal evidence, some of it from eastern Ohio, suggests that often does not happen. Workers laid off from good jobs sometimes do receive training, only to find it is useless in the real world. They lose time and energy they could have devoted to looking for work. Taxpayers lose money that could have been put to better use.
How much money? Billions of dollars a year.
Also, nine federal agencies spend about $4 billion a year to help people with disabilities find jobs, often through retraining projects, counseling and help with leads and scheduling.
Investigators with the Government Accountability Office looked into the programs and found the dozens of programs involved sometimes overlap and often are fragmented in their approaches to helping the disabled. In addition, the GAO warned, little is done to measure the effectiveness of the initiatives.
In some cases, federal agencies simply pass job training money down to the states, which may hand it on to local job programs. All along the way, monitoring of effectiveness is spotty, the GAO determined.
Forty-five federal programs providing employment help to the disabled were identified by the GAO. Some federal agencies, including the Department of Agriculture, agreed with the watchdogs' conclusions. Others, including the Department of Labor, disputed the GAO.
The GAO has an excellent reputation for rooting out waste elsewhere in the government. All too often, however, the agency's findings result in newspaper stories (and editorials), a condemnation or two from members of Congress and no real reform.
It is estimated one in five Americans suffers from some disability making it a challenge to find and hold a job. Taxpayers' money intended to help them needs to be spent wisely. The GAO report should not be filed and forgotten, but should be followed up on by Congress.

A Sanford Police Department officer is off the job, fired because of what officials say they found on her Facebook page.
Former Officer Vanessa Knode used "improper language" in a recent post, according to investigators.
The department's professional standards unit reviewed Knode's social media activity and found the comments.
According to the Orlando Sentinel, a department spokesman said the post was a general statement about race.
Officials said Knode also misused her cruiser when she was off-duty. That also factored into her termination.

The 1DXs will take EF-S lenses!
Can someone who reads Japanese let us know what it says about the EOS-M2, please?I'm hoping for full frame...Thanks!
The specs on the D70 does NOT say 3fps. It says "3.0-inch Variable Angle LCD"
Quote from: jt on January 01, 2013, 12:02:28 PMThe specs on the D70 does NOT say 3fps. It says "3.0-inch Variable Angle LCD"+1. Could be around 5FPS.
Here is what is written for the EOSM2, as some of the previously reported posts were incorrect. There will be a change to a vari-angle LCD, as well as a higher end model that will be able to take an ACCESSORY EVF (I assume they mean in the shoe), NOT a built in finder (specifically, he uses 外付け (そとづけ)EVF ). Also not reported correctly in previous posts is that an upgrade to the AF speed in live view may have to wait 1 ~ 2 more generations of cameras. His words: ライブビューAFの高速化はもう1〜2世代待つ必要があるかも。
There will be a real (big megapixel) replacement for the 1Ds Mark III with an outstanding image quality.All big megapixel sensors (prototypes) are in an 1D X style body.

Excellent Design

They Don't Make 'Em Like They Used To
By Remonstrator
from Phoenix, AZ
I'm a big Levenger fan and am on my third desk set from them: two from the Morgan Collection and one Bomber Jacket. The other pieces were as expected, typically over the top Levenger quality. But the in boxes were a disappointment. First, they are small. The small overhang on the top makes it so that you cannot stack above that point; a big deal for those of us with a lot of paperwork. The overall dimensions are much smaller than my older trays. Second, the build quality is just not as strong. The trays feel flimsier and more delicate than what I bought 4 years ago. Finally, the style is OK but I am not a fan of the contrast stitching and did not expect it to be as pronounced from the photos on the website. However, this is still Levenger and there is enough quality and value to make the overall desk set a wise purchase... but I hope this is not a sign of things to come.
Quality piece
By Checkers
from Langley
Love it! I have the Morgan desk pad and business card holder. All 3 pieces are top quality and trust me I am so picky as to what goes on my desk. I am only happy with the best and this meets my criteria. Highly recommend this piece!
Useful desk accessory
By Calligrapher
from Undisclosed
The workmanship is excellent and the item is very attractive. I usually have a lot of papers in my inbox, so my only complaint is that the tray is too shallow. The leather is of good quality and it would match any office decor.

Karenna, 36, and Andrew "Drew" Schiff, 44, "have been separated for a couple of months and in marriage counseling," says a friend of the couple, who live in New York and have three small children: Wyatt, 10; Anna, 8; and Oscar, 3. Another friend of the Gore family said of the split, "It's amicable and they are in counseling. They are not divorced."
Kalee Kreider, a spokeswoman for the former vice president, said only: "Neither the Gores nor the Schiffs plan to comment." But the two friends who spoke to PEOPLE said they wanted to be frank about the state of the Schiffs' marriage to head off any misinformation or rumor-mongering as people scrounge around the Gore family's private life.
"People are looking for reasons and there's a lot of psychoanalysis of the Gores," said the friend of the Schiffs.
Drew, a medical doctor, works for biotech investment firm Aisling Capital, while Karenna, a lawyer by training, is collaborating on a documentary about inspirational women in history and volunteering at a legal aid clinic for domestic violence victims. "But mostly, she's being a mom," said the Gore friend. And, evidently, one who's being helped through this rough patch by her parents, however estranged they might be. "Both Al and Tipper have been to New York to help Karenna with the kids since her separation," says the Gore friend. "Like all families, they rally."
Al Gore, meanwhile, is in the Philippines and still wearing his wedding ring, according to local news reports. ABS-CBN News says the former vice president and environmental activist was asked at a climate-change forum in Pasay City to comment on all the recent talk of his personal life. To applause from the audience, Gore replied simply: "No. I don't do that."

New Video Aims to Stop Cyberbullying Before It StartsVideo released by the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children and Sprint shows teens how to resolve conflict before it escalates online
ALEXANDRIA, Va., Oct. 13, 2015 – Today, in time for National Bullying Prevention Month, the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children® and Sprint (NYSE:S) released a new video aimed at stopping Cyberbullying. The video, "Split Decisions," shows teens and tweens how to resolve conflict before it escalates to bullying online (www.nsteens.org/Videos/SplitDecisions). It's part of the free Internet safety site, www.NSTeens.org.
According to the Cyberbullying Research Center, on average, 26 percent of students say they have been the victim of cyberbullying at some point in their lives, and 16 percent admitted they have cyberbullied others. Cyberbullying might start with an online rumor, a photo, or a forwarded message—and can escalate quickly, sometimes to aggressive and cruel harassment.
"Today children are constantly connected to their peers through social media and wireless devices, making them feel there is no escape when they are the victims of cyberbullying, and creating sometimes long-lasting or even tragic consequences," said Linda Krieg, NCMEC acting CEO. "We want to stop cyberbullying before it starts, and with Sprint's support we created this video to help kids think about the consequences for themselves and others before they send that text, make that comment or post that picture."
The video tells the story of two teen girls who are having trouble getting along. Viewers follow them in two versions of their story with very different outcomes based on their decisions. One version of the story ends with them finding common ground and the other leads to digital drama.
At www.NSTeens.org, the video is paired with discussion guides and activity cards to make it easier for educators or parents to incorporate it into a lesson or conversation about digital citizenship. The site also has additional videos, web comics and games addressing other topics like online enticement, online security and digital ethics.
"The first stop to preventing cyberbullying is awareness and education" said Debby Ballard, Director of Corporate Responsibility at Sprint. "We feel it is our responsibility as a wireless provider to ensure the right tools are provided to address online harassment in this super-connected and digital world."
NCMEC and Sprint launched www.NSTeens.org in 2007. It's part of NCMEC's popular Internet safety resource, NetSmartz Workshop (www.NetSmartz.org). It's funded as part of Sprint's Internet safety initiative, 4NetSafety (www.4NetSafety.com), through Sprint's charitable phone-recycling program, Sprint Project Connect. 4NetSafety is an important part of Sprint Good WorksSM, an initiative that encompasses Sprint's community and philanthropic outreach across the country.

He wasn't 30 back then.

COLUMBIA — In hindsight, logic wasn't exactly oozing from the student section at Williams-Brice Stadium on Saturday night.
Fans had a reason to be upset. It looked like South Carolina receiver Shaq Roland had a touchdown on the previous play, but refs ruled the sophomore didn't have possession before falling out of bounds. Roland was held on the play, but no penalty was called.
The anger was instant, spewing from the north end zone as students hurled trash onto the field and, as it happened, in the direction of kicker Elliott Fry. With USC trailing Florida by one point in the fourth quarter, the freshman prepared for a 22-yard field goal that could give his team its first lead of the game.
The commotion could challenge any kicker's concentration. Fry blocked it out.
"I thought they called a timeout," Fry said of the delay before his kick as trash was cleared behind the goal post. "You just don't really pay attention to that. You just focus on making the kick."
Fry made that kick, and four others Saturday. He accounted for 13 of USC's 19 points against the Gators, including two fourth-quarter field goals that were the difference on the scoreboard. It was good enough to be named SEC Freshman of the Week on Monday.
His four field goals were a lifetime high. Even in high school, Fry said he never had that many in one game. They were so critical to USC's win, coach Steve Spurrier didn't mind excusing Fry's lone miss from 38 yards.
"Four out of five is not bad. Nobody yelled at him. Nobody said, 'You idiot, what are you doing?'" Spurrier said on his coach's show this week. "Elliott's an excellent kicker. He's still a walk-on. We're going to try to get him on scholarship as soon as we can in January, which we should. But he was a big reason we won the game tonight."
Fry's mother, Jennifer Withrow, told The Post and Courier through a text message Monday she hadn't heard of an impending scholarship. Her son has proven he's worthy to shed the walk-on label.
Fry has made 14 of 17 field goals this season, the second-most makes and attempts in the SEC. He has scored 78 points, tied for fifth in the SEC with LSU running back Jeremy Hill. Fry ranks fifth among SEC kickers in scoring.
A native of Frisco, Texas, Fry picked a good time to have the game of his life. His family was in the stands Saturday night, and they brought a special visitor.
Thompson Moore is a fourth-grade student at Prince of Peace Christian, where Fry went to school. Fry met Moore two years ago after he was diagnosed with Type I diabetes, a disease Fry was also diagnosed with when he was in second grade.
Fry sent two tickets to the Florida game to Thompson and his father, Patrick. They sat with Fry's family in the section reserved for players' relatives in the lower level between the 40-yard lines.
"Great atmosphere!!" Patrick Moore texted before kickoff Saturday night.
"I got to say hi to Thompson before the game," Fry said afterward. "He stayed at the same hotel as us. That was pretty cool having him there and being able to witness all that stuff in person with good seats and everything."

And everythingis perf'.
But, so we're like,we're wrapping it up
and then she starts likeflipping through my file
and asking mequestions in a way
where her voice getshigher at the end.
So, she's like, "So, tell meagain, how old are you now?"
And-and I'm like,"Um, I'm 35."
And she's like,"Uh-huh and remind me again,
"are you dating anyone?"
And I'm like,"No, super alone.
"What's up?"
And, uh...
[audience laughing]
And she's like,"Well, I was wondering
"if you'd liketo talk now
"about the possibilityof freezing your eggs."
And I'm like,"Freezing my eggs?
"What's that?"
And she-- hang on,
and she's like,"Oh, it is super easy.
"All you have to do isinject yourself with hormones
"like twice a day forlike a thousand days
"and then you just come infor like general surgery
"and we just usean ice cream scoop
"and we just scrapeout your eggs."
And I'm like,"You know what?
"You're making thatsound amazing...
"but I think I'm justgonna let my eggs
"rot in my body."
"You knowwhat I mean?
"I... I'm just gonna dolike the same thing I do
"with like baby carrots,where I just buy them,
"put them at thebottom of my fridge,
"wait till they'reoozing brown liquid
"and thenthrow them away.
"So, thanks very much... butI'm gonna just stay barren.
"See ya next year.
that I celebrate Hanukah,
which is fine.
Um, the only traditionI feel that we need
to reconsider isat that holiday,
Jews give each other theselittle chocolate coins
covered in gold foil.
And I just feel like whenyour people is demonized
for being obsessedwith cash...
you should not beseen gobbling money.
[audience laughing]
You knowwhat I mean?
they always come in theselittle yellow fishnets,
you know, like"We just caught them fresh
"from our oceanof wealth."
[audience laughing]
You should not be seeneating your stereotype.
You know what I mean?
Like, you don'tsee Asian people
eating chocolatemath problems.
Do you knowwhat I mean?
You don't seeMexican people
eating like chocolateun-insured cars.
You know?
Um... you don't see lesbianseating chocolate WNBA games.
Um, althoughI wish you did,
'cause how awesomewould that be?
What would iteven look like?
I don't evenknow, um...
I have a question for theladies...
- Ladies, here'smy question...
Do any of youhave any idea
what we're supposedto be doing
with our pubichair anymore?
Like, what are we supposedto be doing with it?
Like, I don't know whatthe kids want anymore.
Like, to me, it's,like, hem lines.
It's like up anddown with the season.
You knowwhat I mean?
Tonight, I justshaped it into like
a tastefulboy shorts.
[audience laughing]
Neither too sexynor too coy.
I'm obviouslyjoking, you guys.
I'm not disgusting.
I'm not a beast.
All the hair has beenremoved from down there,
you guys.
It is, uh, as smooth andsexy as a baby's face.
Because what issexier or more desirable
than a baby face?
[audience laughing]
Oh, That's horrible.
That's horrible.
I, um, I recently went to,uh, my best friend's wedding.
She, uh, got marriedup in Freeport, Maine
and, uh, we wereall bridesmaids,
all my friendswere bridesmaids,
uh, in the wedding.
Have any of the womenhere been bridesmaids?
It can be a little bitof a bummer, you know,
'cause there's that oldsaying, "always a bridesmaid,
"never an astronaut."
And so, we all drive up toMaine, uh, to Freeport, Maine
for the wedding andFreeport is known for having
a lot of outlet storesand if you don't know
what an outletstore is,
it's the same asa regular store,
but a dollarless, you guys.
[audience laughing]
And, um... so, yeah,it's super exciting.
So... so, we have a day, awhole day before the wedding
and my friends are like,"Let's hit the outlets.
"Let's hitthe outlets.
"Let's hit the[deleted] outlets."
And I'm like, "Okay,we'll hit the outlets."
So, we're walking aroundand we pass this one store
and it is astore that I hate.
I refuse to gointo this store.
I don't even like to saythe name of the store.
But for the sake of thestory, for you guys,
I will say thename of the store.
It is a, uh, a ZalesDiamond outlet, you guys.
A Zales!
That's how theysay it in the ad,
it's like right from hereall the way up, Zales.
I feel like thatis the sound
Cindy McCain would makeif she ever had sex.
Just like, "Zales!"
And then like back intoher freezer forever,
for the restof her life.
So, I'm like, I refuseto go into that store.
And as we'rewalking by,
I see that there's,like, a chalkboard,
like, a littlewhiteboard,
on which someemployee has written
in like big,loopy letters,
you know, like,daisies over the 'I's.
So, like, girlscan read it.
And it literally says,"Don't worry, ladies,
"your husbands called.
"They said it's okay tocome in and buy something."
[audience laughing]
And I'm just like,[deleted] you, Zales!
It really-- yeah, seriously,[deleted] you, Zales.
And it really made mewant to go in and buy
the most expensivething that they have
and then just comeback the next day
with like agiant black eye
and just be like,"You lied, Zales!
"He didn't call.
"He wasn'tokay with that.
"I'm grounded now."
uh, whereI like to read
really crappytabloid magazines.
Like reallybad ones.
Like, my favorite oneis "Cosmo Magazine."
Do any of the ladieshere ready "Cosmo?"
Yeah, wheneverI go to Rite Aid
to pick up my Lexaproand my Ambien,
I always-- I alwaystake a sec to see
what's going on on thecover of "Cosmo" and, like,
what I love about "Cosmo"is it is this magazine
that is pretending tobe your best friend
but "Cosmo"hates you so much.
Like, "Cosmo" justwants to undermine you
and make you insecure.
Like, two real storiesfrom the cover of "Cosmo"
recently, like,one of them was
"How to drive a man wildin under 60 seconds."
And then it was like...and I'm just like,
"When would I everneed to do that?"
Like, when would I ever bein that kind of a rush?
Am I at a toll booth?
You know, like, "I only havea minute to make this guy
jack in my hair and you'relike, "Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah."
And you'relike, "Did it.
"Thanks, 'Cosmo'."
Like, why?
Sometimes people don'tbelieve that this is real,
but this is real.
On the cover of"Cosmo" it said,
"Does he hateyour orgasm face?
"Does he hate it?"
And I was justlike, "What?"
Like, oh, my God!
Like, we live ina world of horror.
You know, ofstress and strife.
Like, can you not justmake your orgasm face,
the one thing where youjust like, let it go.
[audience laughing]
You knowwhat I mean?
Like, make thatyour Kit Kat moment
and give yourself abreak today, you know?
And it makes me so sadto think of women like
looking in the mirror like,"Should I change that?"
Like, "Ah!", you know orlike, "Maybe I should do
"more like a falcon,like, ah-ah!"
[audience laughing]
You know,that's horrible.
And it just makes me havethis fantasy of, like,
me being the editor of"Cosmo" where I can take over
and just like rip awaythe veil of friendship
and just goright at the hate.
You knowwhat I mean?
Like, don't hide it anymore,so we can just run stories
that are like,"Are you pointless?"
[audience laughing]
You know or like, um,"Is your soul fat?"
[audience laughing]
"How to loose that lastfive pounds of your soul."
Or like, um, "How togive a [deleted] job
"while you're crying."
Ha, ha, ha--Which is the only way
that I haveever done it.
Over the years,I've had different guys
that I've datedsaying this thing to me
that I guess issupposed to be nice,
but it's not nice--Where, maybe I don't know
if any ofthe ladies here
have ever hearda guy say this,
but guys have said tome, "You know, Jessi,
"part of what makesyou so pretty
"is you have no ideahow pretty you are."
And then they'rejust like, "Enjoy."
[audience laughing]
And I'm like,"That is not nice.
You know, thatis like, at best,
that's like abackhanded compliment
and at worst, that's justlike a forehanded insult.
Because I know that what thatsentence really means is,
"Part of what makesyou so pretty
"is that yourself-esteem is so low,
"it's easier for meto [deleted] you."
[audience laughing]
That's whatthat means.
Don't say it.
That's exactlywhat that means.
I, um... I think.
I, uh, so, I-Iobviously,
I have-I have brown hairand I wear these glasses
and I usually havemy hair up in a bun,
so the other thing guyshave often said to me is,
uh, they'll be like,
"You're like a... you'relike a sexy librarian.
[audience laughing]
"You're like a sexylibrarian type.
"You're a sexylibrarian."
And I'm like, "Hmm, I'vealways thought of myself
"of more of abookish whore."
Sort of, you know, lessof a nerd, more of a slut!
[audience laughing]
I dated a guy oncewho was very into--
When we werein bed--
This is gettingpersonal, you guys.
Now, it'sgetting personal.
When we were in bed,he would do this thing
where he would try tolike, spank me sometimes.
Has anyone ever--still just me?
Um, he wouldtry to spank me.
And it was, you know,it just made me laugh.
It was supposed to be sexy,but it's just so ridiculous.
You know, like,I don't know when
it came to beconsidered erotic
to treat the person thatyou're having sex with like,
they're theworst person!
You knowwhat I mean?
Like, "You're terrible."
Just once I'd like to behaving sex with a guy,
and just have him be like,"Oh, my God, oh my God,
"Jessi... you are sucha wonderful person.
"I had a tree plantedin Israel for you."
[audience laughing]
Why never?
Why never?
I hate it when people dosomething to get attention
and then, they pretendlike they have no idea
why they'regetting attention.
Do you knowwhat I mean?
Like, I was in Brooklyna couple of weeks ago
to see a play--You're welcome, and, um,
and I see this guywalking down the street
and he's walkingthese two very adorable,
but very unusuallooking dogs.
And I am obsessedwith dogs.
Like, I'm likea dog pedophile.
You knowwhat I mean?
Like, I hang outoutside the dog park
and I'm justlike, "Yeah."
And, uh, so I'm like,"What kind of dogs are those?"
And I get closer andthen I see that in fact,
they are not dogs.
They are pigs.
This man iswalking two pigs.
And so, I do the onlyreasonable thing to do,
which is like go upto him and I'm like,
"Let's talkabout this."
And he literallylooks at me and he goes,
"Talk about what?"
And I'm like,"Really?"
And the pigs arelike, "Really?
"We wanna talk aboutthis because we're pigs
"and we have no idea wherethe [deleted] we are."
[audience laughing]
And did I mentionthat the pigs
are wearingmatching jackets?
Like, it's notlike this guy's
on, like, the d.l.with his pigs.
Like, they'rein public.
They're dressed!
But I'm nice, youknow, so I'm just like,
"Well, well, whatare they like?
Is it likehaving dogs?"
And he's like, "I guessit's like having dogs
"if dogs were smarterand more affectionate."
And me and the pigs all dolike an eye roll together,
like, a roller-coaster.
And I'm like,"Oh, I get it.
"So, it's sort of how likeyou would be a human being
"if you were nicerand less of a douche?
"Sort of like that?
"Go to hell,pig walker."

Grants (Federal & State)
Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant (FSEOG)
Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education Grant (TEACH)
Iraq and Afghanistan Service Grant
Oklahoma Tuition Aid Grant (OTAG)
Federal Pell Grants are the foundation of federal student aid, to which aid from other federal and non federal sources might be added. Pell Grants are awarded only to undergraduate students--those who have not earned a bachelor's or graduate degree. The amount of a Pell Grant depends on the student's cost of attendance, Expected Family Contribution (EFC) number, enrollment status (full or part-time). The student must be accepted into a degree seeking major or eligible certificate program.
Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG)
The Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) program is for undergraduates with exceptional financial need. Pell Grant recipients with the lowest expected family contributions (EFCs) will be considered first for a FSEOG. Eligible students may receive between $100 and $4,000 a year, depending on when they apply, their financial need, the funding at the school attended, and the policies of the financial aid office at the school attended.
Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education Grant (TEACH)
Grant Opportunities for Students Planning a Career in Teaching grant with a $16,000 total undergraduate maximum--with an additional $8,000 total for graduate work. This grant opportunity is for students who plan to teach in a high-need field at schools that serve low-income students. This grant has many conditions and it will convert to a Federal Direct Unsubsidized Stafford Loan if you do not meet all of the necessary obligations. We will only consider your eligibility for this grant after you have completed and submitted the Teach Grant Application available from the Service Center of the Office of Student Financial Services or from our website at www.uco.edu/finaid.
To receive a TEACH Grant you must:
- Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) each year, although you do not have to demonstrate financial need.
- Be enrolled as an undergraduate or graduate student in coursework that is necessary to begin a career in teaching. Such coursework may include subject area courses (e.g., math courses for a student who intends to be a math teacher). A student working on a 2nd BA/BS degree is not eligible.
- Meet academic achievement requirements on an Admissions test (ACT 27, SAT 1200, GRE 675 on at least one battery of tests) or maintain a cumulative High School or College GPA of at least 3.25.
- Complete the on-line TEACH Grant Counseling each year.
- Sign a TEACH Grant Agreement to Serve each year (see below for more information on the TEACH Grant Agreement to Serve).
To make sure you do not have to repay this grant:
- You must serve as a full-time teacher in a high-need field in a public or private elementary or secondary school that serves low-income students (see below for more information on high-need fields and schools serving low-income students).
- You must teach for at least four academic years within eight calendar years of completing the program of study for which you received a TEACH Grant.
- If you fail to complete this service obligation, all amounts of the TEACH Grants received will be converted to a Federal Direct Unsubsidized Stafford Loan. You must then repay this loan to the U.S. Department of Education. Interest will be charged from the date the grant(s) was disbursed.
High-Need Fields are the specific subject areas identified below:
- Bilingual Education and English Language Acquisition
- Foreign Language
- Mathematics
- Reading Specialist
- Science
- Special Education
Schools Serving Low-Income Students
Schools serving low-income students include any elementary or secondary school listed in the Department of Education's Annual Directory of Designated Low-Income Schools for Teacher Cancellation Benefits at: https://www.tcli.ed.gov/CBSWebApp/TCLIPubSchoolSearch.jsp
For more detailed information on the TEACH Grant go to: https://teach-ats.ed.gov/ats/index.action
Click below to complete TEACH Grant Counseling and/or complete the Agreement to Serve (ATS). Both are required each year.
Students who receive a TEACH Grant at UCO are required to complete Teach Grant Exit Counseling upon:
- Ceasing to attend UCO
- Official or unofficial withdrawal from the University
- Withdrawal from a TEACH Grant eligible program/major
Students can complete TEACH Grant Exit Counseling as follows:
- Go to http://www.nslds.ed.gov/nslds_SA/SaEcWelcome.do
- Select the TEACH Grant Exit Counseling link
- Log in with your Federal Student Aid PIN
Iraq and Afghanistan Service Grant
Beginning with the 2010-11 award year, a student who is not eligible for a Pell Grant but whose parent or guardian was a member of the U.S. Armed Forces and died as a result of service performed in Iraq or Afghanistan after September 11, 2001 may be eligible to receive the Iraq and Afghanistan Service Grant. The student must have been less than 24 years old or enrolled in college when the parent or guardian died. The grant award is equal to the amount of a maximum Pell Grant for the award year -- not to exceed the cost of attendance for that award year.
Oklahoma Tuition Aid Grant (OTAG)
The Oklahoma State Regents' Office awards Oklahoma Tuition Aid Grant (OTAG) funds to eligible undergraduate residents of the state of Oklahoma who attend school in Oklahoma. OTAG is a part of LEAP (Leveraging Educational Assistance Partnership) and is funded by the federal government and the state. OTAG is included for potential eligibility as part of your award package. However, even if you have been offered an OTAG award, funds will not be forwarded to UCO until eligibility is confirmed with the OTAG office, and UCO enrollment has been verified. To insure that the OTAG funds are available to you when the term begins, you should enroll at least 2 weeks prior to the first day of classes. Because enrollment for OTAG purposes is not confirmed until the end of the 100% refund period, students awarded OTAG but withdraw or cease to be enrolled at least half time during the 100% refund period will not be eligible for OTAG funding.

Resolutions approved included:
Financial reports for October.
Increase the General Fund appropriations $25,000 for technology purposes.
Increase Athletic Fund appropriations $10,205 for wrestling mat paid from the "Wrestling Night Out" fundraiser.
The board also approved one-year contracts for non-certified substitutes for the 2012-2013 school year, including David Jones, bus driver; Melody Lambert, playground supervisor; Anna Wildman, playground supervisor/cafeteria and custodian; and Larry Platt, teachers aide. One-year substitute contracts also were issued for the 2012-2013 school year to Bonnie Eyestone, Rebecca Guinther and Amy Wilson.
The Athletic Department had a few changes, including approval for Tonya Trusty to volunteer with the 2012-2013 junior high girls basketball teams, and the transfers of Brad Weaver from eighth grade girls basketball to freshmen girls basketball coach and David Trusty from freshmen girls basketball coach to assistant girls basketball coach.

Superintendent Ken Ratliff's report discussed the failed levy for Mohawk Schools and will be looking to the community for feedback.
Three students were recognized whose leadership was key in being sent to Buckeye Boys State at Bowling Green State University and Buckeye Girls State at Mount Union College. Seniors Tyler Krupp, Patricia Concepcion and Victoria Smith were chosen to represent Mohawk Local School. The New Riegel VFW Post sponsored Krupp's visit, and Concepcion and Smith's visits were sponsored by the Sycamore post. Principal Carl Long also recognized Kendra Bloomfield and Samantha Lee, Rotary students of the month at Sentinel Career Center.
In the elementary report, the first round of reports from reading testing were sent home with students. Parents are urged to bring any questions to the conferences today and Tuesday. A $4,000 grant also was accepted for some after-school activities to continue, such as dance and sports.
In other news, the music boosters annual craft show is 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Saturday at Mohawk with $2

Support for Faculty
In an effort to support SCSU faculty in teaching, we provide workshops (often with handouts) each semester, we maintain a WAC library, and we work with Faculty Development on the summer teaching academy, which often includes presentations and discussions related to WAC.
We also work closely with the elected Writing Across the Curriculum Committee to discuss W-course proposals.
We also recommend that faculty consider introducing students to the Writing Center (EN A012). While we discourage faculty from mandating that their students visit the Writing Center, we suggest that faculty make students aware of this resource for those who would like assistance with their writing.

Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
Expanding Use of NGS Has Largely...
As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
NSCLC is "Major Battlefield" as Merck,...
If Juno's founders are right, you may be hearing their company's name quite often in the future: The Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC), and the Seattle Children's Research Institute have teamed up to launch Juno Therapeutics, a new cancer immunotherapy-focused biotech company. Its founders say Juno is one of the largest Series A biotech startups in history, having been launched with an initial investment of $120 million.
Juno's technology can reprogram T cells to recognize and attack cancer cells, using synthetic receptors and/or augmented natural antigen receptors to enable the creation of an antitumor immune response built from a patient's own immune system. MSKCC's physician-in-chief José Baselga, M.D., Ph.D., said in a statement that the antitumor activity witnessed with this technology is so significant that they intend to pursue "an aggressive and comprehensive clinical development plan to accelerate achievement of regulatory requirements and make this therapy available to cancer patients in the shortest period of time possible."
"The tumor regressions we are seeing across our Phase I trials at Memorial Sloan-Kettering, Fred Hutch, and Seattle Children's Research Institute are unprecedented," added Michael Jensen, M.D., one of Juno's scientific co-founders and director of the Ben Towne Center for Childhood Cancer Research at the Seattle Children's Research Institute. "I believe this is a transformative therapeutic platform for patients young and old that has the potential to save lives."
Juno currently plans to develop two complementary platforms: chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) and T-cell receptors (TCRs). CAR technology is designed to target the cell surface antigens expressed on cancer cells, and the high-affinity TCR technology can also detect alterations in intracellular proteins present in tumor cells.
Juno's co-founders are Hans Bishop, CEO of Juno and former evp and COO of Dendreon; Larry Corey, M.D., president and director of Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center; Richard Klausner, M.D., former director of the National Cancer Institute; and Robert Nelsen, a managing director and co-founder of ARCH Venture Partners.
In addition to Dr. Jensen, Juno's other founding scientists are Phil Greenberg, M.D., head of the Immunology Program and member, Clinical Research Division at Fred Hutchinson; Stanley Riddell, M.D., member, Clinical Research Division from Fred Hutchinson; Renier J. Brentjens, M.D., Ph.D., medical oncologist and associate chair for Cellular Therapy Trials at MSKCC; Isabelle Rivière, Ph.D., director of the Cell Therapy and Cell Engineering Facility at MSKCC; and Michel Sadelain, M.D., Ph.D., director of the Center for Cell Engineering at MSKCC.
ARCH Venture Partners and the Alaska Permanent Fund are among Juno's initial investors, through a partnership managed by Crestline Investors.

5 Sentences You Never Have to Finish
The other day, I noticed there are certain phrases I use over and over but never finish. And I don't mean phrases like "Hi, I'm Gladstone, if I asked you to have sex, you would say ...?"
Digital Vision./Photodisc/GettyÂ
Yeah, I only said that one once.
Anyway, the reason I don't finish these phrases is because I don't need to. Neither do you. Society has noticed that there are certain scenarios where a few unfinished words and a gesture or facial expression get the job done. Here are five. Are there more? I'm sure there are, but five is a nice number. I grew up in a family of five. There are five fingers on one hand, and Lacey Chabert from Party of Five grew up hotter than any of us expected.

But our hearts still belong to Alyssa Milano.
#5. The Lazy "Or"
Our first entry is something I like to call the lazy "or." It's nicely evocative, don't you think? It conjures an image of someone going around in circles in a rowboat.
Jupiterimages/BananaStock/Getty Images
Lazy oar. Get it?
The lazy "or" is when you want to convey options, but don't want to be bothered thinking about what those options could be. Examples include:
"So, you wanna get some Chinese food, or ...?"
"Yeah, bowling sounds like a fun idea, or ..."
"Do you like it when I do that thing with the thing in bed, or ...?"
Thing not pictured
The lazy "or" is just a nice way of saying "This conversation's not over, and I welcome your input." It's a way of qualifying your opinion to let someone else know it's not the final word. Of course, it can also be used passive-aggressively. For example:
"I'd be happy to have that last slice of pizza, or ..."
"So we'll get Grandma a gift card to Chippendales for her 80th birthday, or ..."
"It's the worst when you can't think of a third example for your article, um, or ..."
In those cases, the "or" becomes more manipulative than lazy, but still allows you to not finish your sentence.
#4. The "Excuse Me, I Just ... (Need Something You're in the Way Of)"
Here's one that pops up a lot in crowded places. You're in some place with lots of people -- people you don't really know or ever have cause to speak to. Let's say it's a Starbucks. You've got your coffee and you need to add some milk or nutmeg or whatever you like to put into your coffee. But the Starbucks fixin's bar is flooded with a gaggle of commuters all very much in their own coffee creation worlds, oblivious to your need for that thermos of milk they're currently blocking you from.
Sweet, sweet milk.
What do you do? Well, if you're like me, you say "Excuse me" and give just the barest explanation for the intrusion. I tend to say "Excuse me, I just ..." and then point meekly to the milk they're blocking. I'm not sure why I don't finish the sentence. I just don't. Maybe because "Excuse me, I need the milk" sounds weird. Other things that sound weird:
"Excuse me, I just need to push my floor on the elevator."
"Excuse me, could I just get past you so I can get that brochure on chlamydia you're blocking?"
"Excuse me, but you're really fat and oblivious, and normally there's a passing lane on an escalator."
But the good thing about this partial phrase is that only the biggest psychopaths will get mad at you for using it. It seems there are plenty of people in the world who don't like to be told what to do, and finishing your thoughts only antagonizes them more. You might not set them off with "Excuse me, but I need the milk," but you will definitely irk someone with "Excuse me, you're blocking the milk." Why chance it when you can just say "Excuse me" and make a meek gesture?
#3. The "Well ... (I Guess This Guy Is Crazy)"
Here's one I get to do all the time in New York City, but I'm sure you folks have done it too wherever you live that isn't New York City.
Medioimages/Photodisc/Photodisc/Getty Images
Des Moines? Is it Des Moines? It's Des Moines, isn't it?
This is the sentence you say when you're in a closed space with a group of people, only one of whom is crazy. Let me set the scene: You're sitting comfortably on the downtown 2 subway heading to Wall Street. (Do they have subways that take you to Wall Street in Des Moines? Never mind.) Suddenly, a man jumps onto the train, reeking of urine and supporting several forms of insect in his facial hair. He blocks the doors and screams, "Jesus was just a pancake the Lord made to kill the Animaniacs, and the media doesn't want you to know!!!"
Or sometimes he might say something really crazy:
Photodisc/Photodisc/Getty Images
"I enjoy talking to Adam Tod Brown about music."
Sure, you could just sit there and say nothing, but you need to make eye contact with someone who doesn't sprinkle his dinner with human feces to establish that you are sane, and your loud new friend is not. Of course, you never want to antagonize a crazy person, so you just get out the "Well ..." and then you roll your eyes or do a subtle head nod to convey "LOOK AT CRAZY!" Yep, good job. You're totally sane now. You and your buddy on the train are now official partners in not being crazy. And best of all, the crazy dude can't accuse you of saying anything. Yep, crazy people lose again.

Quality Education in the Benedictine Tradition
Nov. 15, 2012
Dr. Cynthia A. Walter, left, associate professor of biology, monitors the solar panel experiment of Matt Mackey, right, a junior environmental science major, utilizing one of 12 new solar panels recently acquired by the Saint Vincent College Herbert W. Boyer School of Natural Sciences, Mathematics and Computing for its environmental science laboratory in the Sis and Herman Dupré Science Pavilion. Utilizing a Labquest meter that measures light, current and voltage, Mackey is able to calculate the efficiency of the panel under differing conditions such as cloud cover, time of day and angle of the sun and compare these panels to the 90 full-size panels on the Pavilion roof. The panels will provide a hands-on opportunity for students to learn more about renewable energy sources and to prepare to work in the field of sustainable energy. The purchase of the experimental panels was made possible by a recent grant from the Dominion Foundation's Higher Education Partnership Program. Mackey is from South Bend, Indiana.

Seattle Seahawks CB Richard Sherman recently sat down with NBC's Josh Elliott for an interview that aired during halftime of the Bengals-Cardinals game on Sunday Night Football.
He was asked if he thought the recent emphasis on calling more penalties in the secondary—specifically illegal contact and holding by defensive backs—was aimed at the team's Legion of Boom.
Sherman quickly shut down that theory with a definitive "no." But he did offer his take on what he thought was the driving force behind the increase in penalties.
"When the fantasy football numbers need to be what they need to be, then the league needs to do what it needs to do to get it done. This is a money-driven league, so whatever sells the tickets is gonna sell the tickets."
Whatever the reason is, the numbers clearly show there have been more penalties called on defensive players in recent weeks. As of last Friday morning—before the majority of Week 3's games had taken place—there had been an average of 10.6 defensive penalties called per game during the 2014 preseason thus far (a significant increase from last season's 5.6).
Sherman's statement certainly won't go over well in the league office. And he probably won't get too many favorable calls go his way in games during the regular season, either. But we can't fault the Seahawks CB for speaking his mind and going public about a hot issue that has had both players and media alike buzzing.

Please make it around 1500. I'll buy it if priced like that.
One thing I'm confused about is the "Screen dots" on the LCD, not sure if that's a misprint or what. But 5D3 has 1,040,000, 5D2 has 920,000, and this only has 102,400? How bad does the LCD look then?
As usual, Canon found a way to unreasonably cripple it to upsell us the 5D3. 97% VF on a $2K camera??? Really? SD cards only??? This is a $1500 camera, nothing more.
Quote from: dr croubie on September 16, 2012, 09:31:40 PMOne word for the 6D?Meh.+1, that is the best way to describe this incremental model.
One word for the 6D?Meh.
Hopefully the one saving specification the Canon could have at this point might ironically be the 11 point AF system... wait, I know what your thinking, hear me out...From what we've seen of both Nikon's and Sony's offerings, they're using AF modules borrowed from their APS-C cameras, meaning they occupy a tiny little fraction of the frame, all clustered into the centre. Aside from subject tracking, which these cameras are not made for, and which the Sony will (based on specs alone) probably only marginally excel at, having all the AF points in the centre is a nightmare for all sorts of photographers who would like this as a secondary body, and for those people as basic as an 11 point AF seems, its better than a "19+109 point" that covers a fraction of the frame.Here's hoping that Canon manage to bring out the only entry level FF with FF AF.
Delay, quality issue, quick price drop (indication of overprice?), boring new product, .... Something is not right. I give two thumbs up to their lens department, but the 1DX and 5D3 might be the last two cameras that (arguably) beat their competitors if they let arrogance and lack of innovation take over.

LAKELAND, Fla. – After a sluggish opening quarter to the 2014 season, the Stetson Hatters came to life in the second quarter, scoring 25 unanswered points en route to a 35-16 season-opening victory over Warner in front of 1,213 fans at Lakeland Christian School.
It was special teams that set the stage for much of the Stetson offensive success. The Hatters blocked two punts in the first half and forced another punt that covered just seven yards. Stetson also blocked a PAT kick in the second half.
The only negative on special teams was allowing a 90-yard kickoff return to Warner in the third quarter.
"We take a lot of time and a lot of pride in special teams," Hatters head coach Roger Hughes said. "Until we get all of the pieces put into place, our special teams are going to have to give us some short fields and create some big plays. If you block a punt, you are about 89 percent likely to win the game. We blocked two and got a piece of another one. Those are the things we emphasize. It was gratifying to see that work pay off."
The first block, following the opening possession of the game, resulted in a 25-yard Donald Payne return for a touchdown. Freshman Austin Bess was credited with the block.
"Coach (Charles) Huff has been on us all week about getting in there and getting a block," Payne said. "Everyone came off hard. I was on the outside and just scooped it up and, like we practice, I scooped and scored."
Warner answered with 10 straight points to end the first quarter – a seven-play, 73-yard, drive was capped by a 12-yard scoring run from quarterback Darrin Davis and a seven-play, 23-yard, drive that resulted in a 37-yard Brian Abrams field goal – before the Hatters went on a run.
First Ryan Tentler connected with Chris Crawford on a perfectly thrown 19-yard scoring strike to put Stetson on top 14-10. Three minutes later, Tentler capped a short 31-yard drive following the short punt with a 22-yard TD run. Ryan Selimos ran in the conversion for a 22-10 lead.
"When we scored we got too hyped up like we were just too good," Tentler said. "It was good that they drove down and scored. We were mad about the deflection and the pick, but I told everyone to calm down, stay poised, and do their job."
Cole Mazza got into the scoring act with a 1-yard TD plunge with 4:44 left in the half to cap an 11-play drive covering 73 yards.
The final points of the half came after the second blocked punt, this one by Ryan Powers. Despite penalties that threatened to thwart the scoring chance, Grant Amick hammered a knuckeball field goal through the uprights from a school-record 48 yards out to give the Hatters a 32-10 lead at intermission.
The second half, however, did not play out like the first. The Hatters got a short field goal from Amick midway through the third quarter, and Warner responded by returning the kickoff for a touchdown. That was all the scoring for the night.
"It is our first road win in the history of the program, so I am happy," Hughes said. "But, we didn't score a touchdown after halftime. I thought we got complacent in the third quarter and made too many mistakes that stoped drives that could have put this thing away earlier. Frankly, we have to find a killer instinct in the third quarter."
Overall, the Hatters accumulated 337 yards of total offense with 189 yards on the ground and 148 through the air. Tentler completed 13-of-20 attempts and had the one TD pass to Crawford. Tentler also was the leading rusher in the game, finishing with 75 yards on just seven carries.
The Stetson defense held Warner to 185 total yards. Davis accounted for much of that, throwing for 91 and running for 58.
Payne and Chase Coleman led the Hatters with five tackles, followed by Devon Jones-Stewart and David Lazear with four each.
The Hatters will play their home opener next Saturday night against Florida Tech at Spec Martin Stadium. Stetson let a game against the Panthers get away last year in Palm Bay, and hope to make amends for that loss.
"We have rivalries with JU and Mercer, but Florida Tech is a big game for us," Tentler said. "We have them back at home this year and we want to send a message. We felt like we let that game slip away last year because we didn't play as well as we should have. We are a lot more mature now, and I think we will play a lot better."

NEW YORK — Bethenny Frankel plans to grow her Skinnygirl line of wine and spirits and power bars to include more food products.
"You'll definitely see Skinnygirl food," the former reality TV star said. "If it's something that I'm passionate about, if it's something that solves a problem for women in particular because that's who I connect with the most, and (it's) any product that I can improve upon or any problem that I can solve, then Skinnygirl will be attached to that."
She has added what she calls "The New Girls" to her popular line of ready-to-serve drinks, including Moscato, White Cherry Vodka, Mojito and Sweet 'n Tart Grapefruit Margarita.
Frankel, whose entrepreneurial reach also includes diet books and videos, and a novel, had a six-city run of "Bethenny" on Fox-owned stations last year. The show will air this fall.
"Initially people were afraid of me doing the talk show," Frankel said. "I kind of had to push through and be tested, but I think as women we're always being tested (and) the reward is so much sweeter. You've got to fight for what you want, but if you really are passionate and you really have drive, then you (can) pretty much accomplish anything."
Frankel was a runner-up on "The Apprentice: Martha Stewart." She appeared on "The Real Housewives of New York City," where she became a breakout star, then starred in her own reality shows.
She believes her honesty about the ups and downs of her personal life has helped people relate to her. Online: www.skinnygirldaily.com.
