Veterans Affairs secretary visits CCRI
Feb. 21, 2011
Secretary of Veterans Affairs Eric Shinseki, with U.S. Sens. Jack Reed and Sheldon Whitehouse, visited the Community College of Rhode Island on Feb. 18 to meet with student veterans in a roundtable discussion about the experience of going to college after leaving the military.
Shinseki said that the services provided for veterans at CCRI, which will help them transition from leadership roles on the battlefield to leadership roles in the economy, are a gift to the nation.
Twelve student veterans, as well as officials from the Veterans Administration, CCRI and Rhode Island College, participated in the discussion.
CCRI and RIC share a VetSuccess on Campus Center, where student veterans have direct access to a Veterans Administration liaison who can help them use their G.I. Bill benefits and address any problems they may face. This is a pilot program and the Center is one of only eight in the country.
Shinseki, a Vietnam War veteran and retired Army chief of staff, said that the G.I. Bill after WWII was responsible for educating millions of teachers, scientists and engineers who helped the country to grow and prosper. The new G.I. Bill, he said, and its new generation of student veterans, can help the country in a similar way.
"They can have an equally resounding influence on America as the WWII generation did," he said.
Shinseki said that President Obama challenged America in his state of the union address to out-educate the world so that the United States can compete in an international knowledge economy, and that student veterans will be an important part of that effort.
"CCRI and the Veterans Administration are answering the president's call with the superb study programs that are offered here," Shinseki said.
The roundtable discussion at CCRI focused on ways that the VA can improve services to student veterans, many of whom said that communication was an issue before the VetSuccess Center.
One participant in the discussion, Brian Fountaine, served for six years in the U.S. Army before his humvee hit an improvised explosive device in Iraq in 2006. The blast cost him both of his lower legs and he now walks with prostheses.
"You leave one person and you come back completely different," Fountaine said about the experience of war, even for soldiers who are not physically hurt.
Fountaine spent more than a year recuperating in Walter Reed Army Medical Center and undergoing multiple surgeries. He is now a student at Cape Cod Community College studying graphic design and has created some images for the VetSuccess Center.
He said that the VA could improve the way it communicates with veterans, noting that most of them have Facebook and Twitter and would be receptive to online communication.
Overall, though, he said he is grateful for the opportunities provided by the VA and the new G.I. Bill. "I think it's great; it provides us with a lot of opportunity," he said. "They're just there 24/7."
Another student, Rafael Diaz, is in his first semester at the CCRI Liston Campus in Providence and has used the resources available to him at the VetSuccess Center there.
"It's a little weird transitioning from deployment to school," Diaz said. "But I think they give us all the resources we need to get everything done."
Diaz has about a year and a half remaining to serve in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve and was deployed to both Iraq and Afghanistan during his active duty service between 2008 and 2010. He is taking general studies courses for now and plans to study engineering.
Diaz said he appreciated the opportunity to meet with his Rhode Island senators and the VA officials. "I like the fact that they listened to us and took the time out of their day to come see us," he said.
CCRI President Ray Di Pasquale said the college serves about 580 student veterans. "There are some outstanding young people here today," he said.
He added, "To be chosen as a site for one of the VetSuccess Centers and for a visit from Secretary Shinseki makes this a very proud moment for the college."

Exodus 20:117comment (0)
April 15, 2010
By Jeffrey S. Quiett
Related Scripture: Exodus 20:117
Explore the Bible
Associate professor of marriage and family counseling, University of Mobile
Exodus 20:1–17
God Alone (1–7)
The first commandment was responsible for shaping the Israelites' monotheism. Belief in one God set their religion apart from all other ancient Near Eastern religions. Such overwhelming paganism may explain why they were tempted to worship other gods. One could think of it as the ancient equivalent of "peer pressure." The first commandment is basic to all the others, for unless God is the only God, none of the other commandments is meaningful or binding. Anything more important than God becomes an idol. Such gods today may be career, family, wealth, pleasure or anything else that drains ultimate concern away from God. Any form of self-exaltation above God is also idolatry. The prohibition against making images is not a wholesale condemnation of all art forms but specifically forbids the use of images in the worship of God. This command was given against the background of a world that believed gods could be controlled by such images. The true God, however, cannot be controlled by rites or words. He is spirit (John 4:24) and no likeness or location can represent Him accurately.
The command to respect the name of God usually is associated with profanity but its implications reach further. "In vain" or "misuse" includes any frivolous, insincere or unjustified use of God's name. The command may be violated by the use of profanity but also by using God's name when there is no commitment to Him or to manipulate people.
Sacred Rest (8–11)
The word "Sabbath" comes from a Hebrew word meaning "to cease" or "to rest." The Sabbath commemorated God's rest from His creative activity and later celebrated the Exodus from Egypt (Deut. 5:15). In the New Testament, overly strict interpretations of this command were enforced so that the day became oppressive. Jesus tried to restore the original intent of the Sabbath. It was never intended to be a burdensome day upon man but to be a day to renew one's physical body through rest and one's spiritual being through worship. Early Christians later changed the "Sabbath" to Sunday to commemorate the resurrection of Jesus.
Further Commands (12–17)
"Honor" in the fifth commandment carries the idea of "respect." The command is not conditional on whether the parents deserve respect. Since parents are God's representatives, the child learns to honor God by honoring his or her parents.
The sixth commandment underscores the sanctity of human life. It served not as a blanket prohibition against killing but only against unauthorized killing, i.e., the taking of the law into one's own hands. Jesus broadens this command to include anger with one's brother (Matt. 5:21–26).
The seventh commandment implies respect for marriage and requires purity of the marriage state. Adultery violates the marriage trust. Jesus later increased the strictness of the command by adding "lustful looks" to the meaning of adultery. One can commit adultery with thoughts just as much as actions.
The command to not steal implies respect for others' property. The Bible defends the right to hold property. Any unauthorized taking of property, whether it is someone else's goods, time or ideas, violates this command. The Bible also equates withholding tithes and offerings with robbing God (Mal. 3:8–10).
The command not to bear false witness originated in the setting of the court, where witnesses were under oath to tell the truth. But in its broader application, it is a prohibition against untruthfulness of any kind. The tongue is a powerful weapon (James 3:5–6); it can destroy as surely as killing does, whether it is the malicious lie, gossip, propaganda or a half-truth. Insincere flattery or keeping silent when another's reputation is being maligned unjustly violates the spirit of this command.
The last commandment involves one's thoughts rather than overt actions. The Hebrew word for "covet" is itself a neutral word that means "desire" or "to take pleasure in." It is only when desire is directed into wrong channels that it becomes sin.

I am not opposed to the idea of nuclear power plants, but I do question the necessity of building a plant in our region.
We are fortunate to have an endless supply of wind energy to use. It would take an enormous amount of water to run a nuclear plant and we don't have an endless supply of water.
I am curious to know how many, if any, nuclear power plants have been built in tornado alley.
What would happen if an F5 tornado were to hit a nuclear power plant? This is not an unthinkable possibility.
I am not sure residents of the Panhandle should accept George Chapman's qualifications when it comes to planning and building a nuclear power plant.

The Berg's track shortcut
When you race The Berg, look out for the hidden shortcuts on the track. One is hidden in the cave.
Do not forget to use the Pit-Lanes to repair your vehicle when you are in a race. This is very important when you are racing on Mars and Xalax where your car can get damaged a lot.
Rigels track shortcut
There is a shortcut where the tunnel full of water is located. When you enter, there is a waterfall to your left. Go through it and you will be close to first. REMEMBER: If you are going through it for the first time you will find a Gold Brick.
Rocket Racer track (Xalax, Grand Finale)
It is best to avoid the ramps as you can lose speed and control when you land. It is better to weave in and out of all the ramps and barriers, keeping up a constant speed.
If another racer is just in front of your car, it is possible to knock them into a spin. Try bumping one of the corners of their car.
Vehicle add-ons
Vehicle add-ons are won by completing bonus games and beating Bosses. Power is nothing without control, so do not get too many Power add-ons without getting Grip add-ons.

"We regret to inform you…" You don't need to read any further; you know the outcome. All the SAT practice exams, the hours of volunteering, the extra time spent putting together that perfect portfolio/résumé/college application reduced to a single sentence that makes your heart sink.
Rejection blows—when you read those words, it doesn't matter how "challenging this year's decision was" or how many "talented students applied." When you first read those words, you can't help but feel gutted. So what do you do? Cry? Laugh? Say, "Screw it, I'm moving to Canada?" No! You (or your mother or your younger brother) call the admissions office.
NYU recently sent out admissions decisions and, like clockwork, the phones in the NYU Admissions Office began to ring. There were elated accepted students who thanked NYU for admitting them and couldn't wait to be in New York City. There were parents and proactive students calling to find out more about financial aid. And then, there were some of the 30,000 who got rejected. Some callers simply questioned, "Why?" Others threw the challenge flag. Others still simply called and cried. But there were a couple of calls that stood out from the pack. With the help of anonymous NYU Admissions Ambassadors who were working the phone lines on decision day, we here at NYU Local have compiled a list of the most interesting Rejected-Student phone calls.
Caller: "Hi, I just got rejected from NYU and I was wondering if there is a re-review process?"
Admissions Ambassador: begins to explain that NYU does not have a re-review process.
Caller's Mother: "My daughter is an African-American student—I demand to talk to the Head of Diversity Initiatives!"
Admissions Ambassador: "Unfortunately, none of our counselors are available today. You can call back—"
Caller's Mother: "I NEED TO TALK TO THAT PERSON NOW!"
Admissions Ambassador: puts caller's mother on hold and speaks to supervisor.
Admissions Ambassador: "Hi can I get more information—"
Caller's Mother: "GIVE ME THE NAME!"
Admissions Ambassador: "Her name is—"
Caller's Mother: "WOULD YOU JUST SPIT IT—"
Admissions Ambassador: "Her name is—"
Caller's Mother: "STOP CUTTING ME OFF!"
Admissions Ambassador: gives name and e-mail address.
Caller's Mother: "I have been stuck in traffic for three freaking hours! Does it sound like I have a pen and paper on me? I do not have more than two hands! You must be a student. I need to talk to an admissions counselor RIGHT NOW."
Admissions Ambassador: transfers call.
Caller: "Hi, my older brother just got rejected from NYU and it was his number one choice. What do we do now?"
Admissions Ambassador: expresses condolences, explains that NYU does not have a re-review process.
Caller: "Okay, I guess." hangs up.
Caller: "Hi, so my daughter just got rejected [from NYU], and we were wondering why."
Admissions Ambassador: expresses condolences, "Unfortunately, I do not have access to her files and the admissions counselors have stepped out for the day."
Caller: "Well we were wondering because her friend who had a lower GPA, SAT score, and [fewer] extra-curricular activities got in to NYU. What makes him better than my daughter?"
Admissions Ambassador: explains that he/she cannot answer the caller's question.
Caller: "Well this is SO unfair! My daughter deserves to go to NYU more than her friend!"
Admissions Ambassador: express condolences (again), "Please feel free to call back on Monday to speak to an admissions counselor."
Caller: "Hi, my son just got rejected from Tisch and it was his number one choice for four years. We were wondering what we can do next?"
Admissions Ambassador: begins to explain transfer process, hears son of caller sobbing in the background.
Caller: "Thank you so much, can you suggest other schools my son should apply to?"
Admissions Ambassador: "Unfortunately, I cannot suggest specific schools…"
Caller: "Thank you so much for being so kind. I realize that you're probably getting many calls like this today—hope we didn't put a damper on your day!"
There you have it. Whining gets you nowhere—whether you play the race card, seek pity, claim superiority, or feign understanding, we regret to inform you…you're still rejected.

SALINA — Nikki Blankenbeckley made one, Cara Donley finally missed one, and the Concordia Panthers slipped past the Sacred Heart Knights 46-45 in the consolation bracket of the Salina Invitational Tournament Wednesday afternoon at the Bicentennial Center.
Sacred Heart had wiped out a 10-point Concordia lead and tied the game at 45-45 on a short bank shot by Donley with 45 seconds to play in the game.
Following a Concordia turnover, Donley missed a shot that would have given the Knights the lead.
The Panthers came away with the ball, Blankenbeckley was fouled with 4.9 seconds on the clock.
Blankenbeckley, a 36 percent free throw shooter going into the game, missed the first of two attempts. She made the second to give Concordia the 46-45 advantage.
Sacred Heart got the ball to Donley, a 5-5 freshman who scored 20 points in the game, but her shot from just inside the three-point line didn't fall and the Panthers moved on to the fifth-place game.
"I think we were all glad to hear that buzzer sound," Concordia coach Michael Wahlmeier said, "I told them that I felt they were playing not to lose, and not playing to win. We needed to take care of the ball, but we are not to a place yet where we can burn clock."
Concordia, which has won two of its last three games after going 0-7 to open the season, will play North Central Kansas League rival Clay Center in the fifth-place game at 2 p.m. Saturday.
Clay Center was a 51-19 winner over Smoky Valley, and already owns a win over the Panthers this season.
In the semifinals, Salina County defeated Abilene 63-48, and Salina Central downed Andover, 44-37.
Concordia fell behind 6-2 in the first 2:30 of the game, but went on a 9-2 run, that Tristen Leiszler capped off with a three-point shot, to go up 11-8.
Leiszler was 5 of 12 from three-point range in scoring 17 points for the Panthers. She also had five rebounds and four assists.
Megan James, who finished with 10 points, six rebounds, four assists and three steals, scored the first two points of the second quarter, and Concordia led 13-8.
Tracie Thibault knocked down a pair of threes as Sacred Heart battled back to tie the game at 18-18 late in the first half.
Thibault scored 17 points in the game.
A basket by James gave Concordia a 20-18 advantage at halftime.
Leiszler hit a three, and James made a layup in the first 1:46 of the second half to extend the Panthers' lead to 25-18.
It was a 27-22 game when a jumper by Blankenbeckley and a layup by Leiszler put Concordia on top 31-22.
Donley scored for the Knights, but the Panthers answered with a three by Leiszler to make it a 34-24 game.
Led by Donley's five points, Sacred Heart cut the deficit in half, 36-31, heading into the final eight minutes of play.
"She is a good player. She really drives hard to the basket. She picks her spots well," Wahlmeier said of Donley.
A three by Thibault pulled Sacred Heart to within two points, 36-34, early in the final period.
Molly Adams grabbed an offensive rebound and scored for Concordia.
Donley made one of two free throws, and then the Panthers got baskets by Adams and Jennifer Boley and a three by Leiszler to again build a 10-point lead at 45-35 with under five minutes to play.
"We hit Jennifer inside. Molly started making some shots. Some other people stepped up. Katie (Lambert) had six points," Wahlmeier said, "That is what it takes. Not everybody is going to be on every game so you have to find out who is playing well and get them the ball."
Sacred Heart wouldn't go away.
Thibault made four free throws in a span of 15 seconds, Donley followed up a missed shot and Thibault scored on a drive to get the Knights within two points, 45-43.
Sacred Heart forced a Concordia turnover, and Donley scored again to tie the game.
Blankenbeckley was able to step to the line and knock down the free throw that gave Concordia the win.
K. Lambert 3-0-3 6, M. Lambert 1-0-2 2, Adams 2-2-4 6, Blankenbeckley 1-1-1 3, Boley 1-0-1 2, Leiszler 6-0-1 17, James 5-0-1 10. Totals: 19-3-13 46.
Stein 1-0-2 2, Donatell 0-0-1 0, Donley 8-4-0 20, Doll 1-0-2 2, Rapp 2-0-5 4, Thibault 5-4-0 17. Totals: 17-8-10 45.

An 18-year-old South Toledo man was charged yesterday with hitting a police detective in the head, possibly with a bottle, when the detective moved to seize a loaded pistol that the suspect had hidden under a blanket.
William Eric Baker, 18, of 443 South Ave. was charged with felonious assault on a police officer. He remained at large last night. He is described as black, 5 feet 7 inches tall, and weighing 130 pounds.
Burglary Detective Brian Lewandowski, 44, a nearly 15-year veteran, was treated at Toledo Hospital and released.
The detective was monitoring an area for burglary activity when he saw a suspicious person enter the South address about noon yesterday. He went to the front door and told another occupant that he wanted to talk with the person who just came in. Detective Lewandowski saw the person, who police said was Mr. Baker, and the suspect saw the officer.
Police said Mr. Baker ran upstairs into a bedroom. The detective followed and saw him put a loaded 22-caliber pistol under a blanket. When the officer tried to retrieve the gun, he was struck in the head and Mr. Baker fled.
The officer grabbed the gun, ran after Mr. Baker, collapsed in the front yard, and called for help. Police said they recovered a second gun, drugs, and paraphernalia at the house.

KONDYLIS Kostantin - Greece
Kondylis was a young Greek runner who never made it to the heights of Olympic glory. Nevertheless, he was chosen to be the first bearer of the Olympic flame from Olympia before the Berlin games in 1936, when this ancient tradition was reintroduced.It took 12 days and 3000 relays for the flame to arrive in the Olympic stadium.

Good question re: Mass. Each year we've playied it by ear for those attending. If they want to go the vigil Mass, then we make sure we leave in time to attend, but if no one wants to go the vigil Mass, then wil might be more casual on when we arrive at the shrine. The key, of course, is that if you are meeting us at the shrine to call me on my cell when you are then. That way we can coordinate meeting with everyone else.

The first pictures of Nelson Mandela since his discharge from the hospital after being treated for pneumonia have just been broadcast on South African television. NBC's Rohit Kachroo reports.
The African National Congress has gone on the defensive after being criticized for allowing a visit to ailing leader Nelson Mandela to be broadcast on national television.
In photos and video shown on state broadcaster SABC, the recently hospitalized Mandela appears frail and wears a somewhat vacant expression as he is surrounded by President Jacob Zuma and other ANC party officials.
While some South Africans expressed gratitude on social media for having been able to see footage of Mandela, others attacked the move as being disrespectful and politically exploitative. Zuma is expected to run for re-election next year.
"Mandela survived 27 years in prison only to become a prisoner of the ANC marketing machine," one Twitter user wrote in a message that had been "retweeted" more than 800 times within hours.
"The ANC are more interested in the brand than the man, or they'd just let him live out his last days in peace," wrote another Twitter user.
View images of civil rights leader Nelson Mandela, who went from anti-apartheid activist to prisoner to South Africa's first black president.
It was typical of the criticism being lobbed at the ANC, with many people saying Mandela looked too ill to be shown and should be left alone.
Some people also questioned the ANC's statements that Mandela was "in good health and good spirits," which the party stood by on Tuesday.
"South Africans are called upon to appreciate that [Mandela] is 94 years old; he will be frail and not as active and energetic as we all fondly remember him," the ANC said in a statement. "There is no reason to be alarmed by the visuals of an elderly person who clearly is receiving the necessary care and attention."
In the video, Mandela is sitting in a chair, his legs propped on an ottoman and covered by a blanket. He is expressionless and nearly motionless as politicians and people described as his medical team laugh and smile and pose for photographs.
Shortly afterward, Zuma appeared outside Mandela's Johannesburg home and said he had conversed with Mandela, whom he described as being "very up and about." He added: "We're very happy. We think that he's fine."
After the broadcast began to draw the ire of some South Africans, the ANC released a statement saying that showing Mandela was "in the public interest."
"We maintain that President Mandela is a global icon," the statement said. "As the ANC we regard him as a leader of the people and we would want to keep the world informed of his condition."
The party also speculated that negative reaction reflected "the fear of South Africans to accept that President Mandela is mortal and aged."
Mandela was discharged from a hospital on April 6 after having been treated since March 27 for pneumonia and other problems.
The Nobel laureate and former president, who led the nation's battle against the white-minority apartheid government, has battled health problems, especially with his lungs, for years.
What will happen to the 'Rainbow Nation' after Mandela?

CLAY Cassius or MOHAMMED ALI (1942) United States / Boxing
Well before he became the greatest boxer of his time and changed his name to Mohammed Ali, Cassius Clay won the Olympic title in the middle-weight category at the 1960 Rome games. Being of a provocative nature, he was the first boxer to use television to gain recognition and he thought that on his return to the United States he would be flattered, and at the very least, respected for his achievement. Nothing could have been further from the truth. In a Kentucky town, he was refused admission to a bar reserved for whites. Greatly aggrieved by this incident, he threw the gold medal he was wearing around his neck into the Ohio river. It was never recovered.When he won the world championship in 1965, he was stripped of his title for having refused to do his military service. He won the world title back in 1974 and held on to it for six years, having defended it 22 timesLittle is heard of Mohammed Ali now. He has Parkinson's disease.Nevertheless he was the star guest at the Atlanta opening ceremony in 1996. On this occasion, he was invited to light the Olympic cauldron. He was presented with a new gold medal, to replace his lost first one.

One, if not the most, important part of any motorcycle race is the start. It rains all of the time up here in Seattle, so we end up racing indoors on Arenacross style tracks. The start is everything when you only have five laps to show what you've got! Big jumps – no problem, big whoops- got it, corner speed – good. Starts uhm… they needed work. After rounding the first turn mid pack more than a few times this winter, I went looking for help.
What was found was, Works Connection Pro Launch Start Device. It works by holding the front end of the bike down to keep it from wheeling out of the gate. To set the Pro Launch Start Device, you push the forks down and flip the lever on and it holds the front of the bike down. As soon as you hit a bump it releases. It's amazing how much straighter you can launch out of the gate and wheeling is no longer a problem.
I have used Works Connection parts before and this stuff is high quality. Everything from the packaging, to the machining, to the anodizing screams awesomeness. They even supply you with easy to use instructions and a countersink drill bit to make installation easy.

Whoa. I never thought of that…
Mean lady.
@Plods with Beer ( did I mention beer? )
Smart lady.
I'll have to try that. Our dog will mouth a hunk of peanut butter and still manage to spit out the pill. Yetch.
Now that she's said it out loud, he'll be onto her next time and eat it anyway. Some dogs are smart enough to know what you say. I know my cat is. :)
Individually wrapped cheese slices have worked with my old dog. She needs 4 pills a day for arthritis, and peanut butter and pill pockets don't work, just as Dani Rice described. But 1/4th of a slice of cheese wraps each pill nicely, and she takes them without complaint.
It takes two people: one to hold the mouth open, one to place the pill on the back of the tongue and stroke the throat downward. Reflex does the rest. A reward reduces the chance of damage to the first person and helps keep it in the stomach.
You might want to do some investigation in your area and see if anybody can put the prescriptions in liquid form. There is a pharmacy in my area that serves both people and pets, and they can put any inscription into liquid form and give it flavoring that the pets will actually like.
We have done that only to find the pill hacked up later, behind the couch.
That would definitely NOT work with my old Yellow Lab — LOL!!! If it's on the counter, he thinks it's fair game; we have a running battle about not getting up on the counter. grin
Should have wrapped the pill in bacon.

Mexican state-owned energy giant Petroleos Mexicanos has awarded a contract to build a section of the Los Ramones natural gas pipeline to a consortium made up of Brazilian engineering group Odebrecht, Mexican construction company Arendal and Italian-Argentine group Techint.
The contract was awarded after a "painstaking analysis" to ensure the necessary "technical experience and capacity" to develop the Los Ramones Phase II North project in a timely and appropriate manner, Pemex said in a statement.
The company recalled that Tag Norte, whose shareholders are Tag Pipelines (a unit of Pemex Gas y Petroquimica Basica, the oil giant's gas and basic petrochemicals subsidiary), Gasoductos de Chihuahua and PMI Holdings, is responsible for developing that natural gas infrastructure project.
Phase I of this strategic project will link the northern Mexican border town of Camargo, located in Tamaulipas state, with Los Ramones, a municipality in the northern state of Nuevo Leon.
After voiding an auction for the project's entire Phase II, Pemex split that section of the pipeline into two parts: Los Ramones North and Los Ramones South.
Los Ramones Phase II North will involve construction of a 42-inch pipeline over a distance of 450 kilometers (280 miles) from Nuevo Leon to the adjacent central state of San Luis Potosi.
The Los Ramones pipeline, part of the Natural Gas Transport System, will stretch for more than 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) and have the capacity to transport 2.1 billion cubic feet of gas per day.
It will help strengthen domestic industry, bolster electricity generation and improve natural gas distribution to residential and commercial sectors, Pemex said.
Total investment will amount to more than $1.2 billion, providing a strong boost to job creation in the five states the pipeline will traverse: Tamaulipas, Nuevo Leon, San Luis Potosi, Queretaro and Guanajuato, the company added.
The pipeline is scheduled to begin operating in December 2015.

Since the inception of Google+, it has touched almost every corner of Google - Gmail, YouTube, Android, and more have received a bit of Google+ magic. Recently that touch has extended to a lesser known but very important Google service - its job search page, which lists open positions at Google. Beyond making it even easier to look up your dream job (at least for us), the new jobs search site could represent the future of how companies connect with potential employees.
The New Job Discovery Experience
New Search Results Page Notifications
|Enable Google+ Prompts
When performing a job search on Google jobs board, users are now taken to a new search results page. The new page, when signed into a Google+ upgraded Google account, includes a blue bar at the top prompting the user to allow Google to utilize their Google+ profile information to assist in the job search and application process (item 1 in the picture above). Users not already signed in with Google+, will not see the blue bar.
On the right hand side of the page, users are again prompted to "enable Google+." They are also now given 4 benefits from enabling Google+: customized job recommendations, connecting with Googlers, email updates, and starring jobs (item 2). Underneath the top box, is another box again prompting the user to "get started" so that they can see which connections they have at Google (item 3). Users that are not signed in to Google+ already, will see prompts telling them to sign-in to Google+ instead of "enable" and "get started."
After examining the URL of the new search results page, we see that it includes "beta," suggesting that Google is testing it for now (item 4). This could also possibly suggest that they are planning on rolling out this functionality for other companies to use on their job boards.
Addition of Google+ Connections
|Google Jobs with Google+ Circles Information
Upon enabling Google+, users are greeted by a new pane which lets users know that "Life at Google" is on Google+ so that they can follow them (item 1).
Underneath that, is where it gets more interesting. Users are given a list of "your connections," a list of Googlers in their circles (item 2). When scrolling over the list and clicking "view all," users are shown a fuller list of Googlers in their circles to contact. At this point, they can choose to contact the Googlers on Google+ by clicking through to their profile, or they are also given an option to email them instead. A Gmail composition box opens with an email already pre-wrote. All that is left is adding a bit of individual touch and the receiver's email address.
However, it seems that the list of Googlers in the searcher's circles is limited to those that have also enabled Google+ enhanced job search. Personally, I'm only shown 4 people when I in fact have many more Googlers in my circles. This makes sense because it could become a privacy issue if all Googlers easily appeared next to job search results. I would assume, many of them would like the option to choose whether or not they appear. However, this is also an option to click and go to the users circles to see a full list of those they are connected with that list Google as an employer.
Users are also given a list of suggested Googler "you may know," so that they can add them to their circles (item 3). They idea here is that job searchers will reach out to Googlers and ask them about how they like their job, how to prepare for interviews, etc.
Personalized Job Search Results
Also, noticeable is the personalization of search results. After enabling Google+, my job listings updated to include a lot of writing positions because my most recent position is "Marketer and Writer" for +Google Plus Daily. I don't exactly know how the positions were being sorted before, but the change was very noticeable when I enabled Google+. This feature is great for both job searchers and Google. Job searchers don't want to sort through a lot of positions for which they have no relevant experience, and Google doesn't want prospective employees applying to positions that they are not a fit.
Extra Features: Star Job Listings & Email Updates
|Google Jobs Search Results Page
Enabling Google+ also comes with a couple other neat features: the ability to star job listings (item 1) of interest and receive email updates from Google when new job listings are available.
As users search through the many job openings that Google has open, they are able to star those that seem interesting in order to make it easy for them to come back later. The functionality is very similar to starring emails in Gmail or places on Google Maps. Simply clicking "starred" at the top left of the page, searchers can see a full list of all of their starred positions (item 2).
There are two ways to sign up for email updates. One way is through the "get email updates" button on the top of the page (item 3). Clicking the button causes a pop-up box to appear allowing users to choose if they email updates from their current search. It will also show users the keyword from their current search as well as the filters currently active. From a drop down box, users can choose to have updates "never," "daily," "weekly," or "monthly." In addition, by clicking the "recent searches" box at the bottom of the left-hand pane, job searchers can choose if they want updates from any of the searches in their current session (item 4).
Sharing Built In
|Link to Share This Job Search Result
No Google+ integration would be complete without the added ability to share positions with your circles. As seen above, the new Google job search experience includes "share" links that appear when scrolling over a search result.
|Share Position on Google+
In addition to those links, there is also a Google+ share button on all position descriptions like in the picture above. The button is also accompanied with a question, "Know someone who would be interested?" Google is hoping that this will lead to more prospective employees finding out about open positions they have.
Modernized Application
We fill out our name, email address, education history and employment history on most social media networks, yet we still have to fill out all of this information on every online application. There has been some movement to change this with LinkedIn's "Apply With LinkedIn" button, launched in July 2011.
Now, Google is getting into the game with Google+ enhanced job searches. On any job posting (both on the top and the bottom), users can simply click the "Apply Now" button and their name, email address, education history, and employment history are pre-populated on the application form. The application becomes much faster to fill out.
|Google Jobs "Apply Now" button
What It Means For the Future of Job Search
One of Google's clear goals in recent months has been a push into the enterprise with Google Apps (and as a part of that, Google+). While it's possible that this is a unique tool for Google, it looks and feels like it has the potential to be a broader product for enterprise customers.
In general, job listings across the Internet are a bit of a mess, and many companies already use third party services to post them. This could be a compelling addition to the Google Apps package, offering both organization and personalization to the job search progress.
Thinking even bigger, this could very well be the first hints of a competitor to Craigslist and Monster.com from Google. Combining personalization from Google+ with the Google search experience we know and love could make for an extremely interesting and useful addition to the job search market, as well as a new source of revenue for Google. As we know, Google is always looking for new areas to get into, and it looks like they could soon be moving into the online job search market.
What do you think? Does this mean something big from Google, or have we fallen into wishful thinking?

American literary theorist and legal scholar, Stanley Eugene Fish, was born and grew up in Providence, Rhode Island. He did not start out with such career plans; indeed, he began as a medievalist. He did his undergraduate work at the University of Pennsylvania, and then enrolled at Yale University, where he received a Ph.D in 1962. He then began a teaching career, first in the English department at the University of California, Berkeley, and then at Johns Hopkins University.
Later he taught both English and law at Duke University, despite the fact that he held no law degree and has never undertaken formal study of the law. Next he accepted the position of Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at the University of Illinois at Chicago, where he taught in the departments of political science and criminal justice. During this time he was also chairman of the religious studies committee. The Institute for the Humanities at UIC established a lecture series named for Fish.
From 2005 to 2010 he was employed as the Davidson-Kahn Distinguished University Professor of Humanities and Law at Florida International University, where he also taught law. Despite all of these accolades, Fish is best known for his expertise in literary theory, which is also applied across the humanities and the social sciences. His analysis of interpretive communities provides an explanation of how the interpretation of a given text is dependent upon individual readers and their own subjective experiences.
Fish uses this part of his theory to argue that a given reader's interpretation of a text is necessarily not completely subjective. Fish has also taken on challenges to his own discipline, the humanities. He has argued that the humanities hold only intrinsic worth; in other words, they are of no use whatsoever. Fish sees this as an honorable response. As he has stated, "An activity that cannot be justified is an activity that refuses to regard itself as instrumental to some larger good. The humanities are their own good. There is nothing more to say, and anything that is said diminishes the object of its supposed praise."
Fish is married to fellow academic, Americanist Jane Tompkins. She also taught at Duke, but once her husband left the university, along with several other prominent professors he had hired, his wife left as well. She basically gave up teaching and went to work at a local health food restaurant.

DOMA & Prop 8
In March, the Supreme Court heard two cases on same-sex marriage. I had the pleasure of listening to the oral arguments with some friends, gathered around the computer and streamed the arguments.
If you get the chance to kill an afternoon, I encourage you to sit down and listen to the arguments. Get a constitutional law book, perhaps the treatise written by Erwin Chemerinsky, and enjoy! It's a great great lesson on how the Supreme Court works because IN BOTH cases there were tons of questions on ability of the Court to even hear the case...
If you listen to the arguments, it sounds like DOMA is in trouble as is Prop 8, but for different reasons.
Conventional wisdom asserts that the Court will strike down DOMA as un-Constitutional and punt on Prop 8 which means that the Appellate Court decision will stand and Prop 8 will be overturned.
Now I'm very mindful that conventional wisdom and reading the tea leaves doesn't always work out. Look at the healthcare ruling. No one thought that Roberts would break ranks...
But here is how the conventional wisdom works...
On DOMA (United States v. Windsor):
Almost HALF of the argument on DOMA was questions of standing (who can bring the case?). It was really quite fascinating.
United States v. Windsor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Once the Court got to the merits of the case, it was on... Justice Kennedy tipped his hand several times and took issue with BLAG's arguments. If Kennedy is on with Kagan, Sotomayor, Breyer, and Ginsberg, and the Court gets to the merits, DOMA is toast.
I'll add to this later on the Prop 8 Case...
Read the transcripts man... fascinating fascinating stuff... AND a good review of Con Law...

Re: DOMA & Prop 8
I think your prediction of the outcome is probably accurate but the decision will have nothing to do with the merits of the case and everything to do with the justices desire to rewrite the laws as they need to for social acceptance by the Leftist cocktail party crowd and it is a chance to reinforce the superiority of their brethren in black robes over the rubes that voted for Prop 8.

What happened in San Francisco when Prop 8 passed? Violent protests and property destruction. Gee, where is the supposedly impartial 9th circuit located?

Re: DOMA & Prop 8
If you will note, AZRWinger begins with a fundamentally flawed assumption. He believes that the primary question is "Is there a Constitutional right to same-sex marriage?". When AZRWinger is allowed to get away with this deceptive framing of the question, it permits a mooting of the true legal and Constitutional questions...
Don't reward lazy thought and don't fall into the trap. The issues are far more complicated than AZRWinger would have you believe.
AZRWinger wants you to ask if there is a Constitutional right to same-sex marriage and reach the conclusion he has, that there is no Constitutional right to same-sex marriage. The problem with AZRWinger's analysis is that it is the most shallow, most cursory, and least rational means of examining the issue.
But for grins, let's play his game for a moment.
1. Is there a Constitutional right to same-sex marriage?
We are forced to begin with asking if there is a Constitutional right to marriage. If you search the text of the Constitution for the right to marriage, you will not find it explicitly written. Does that mean that there is not a Constitutional right to marriage?
If you buy into AZRWinger's interpretation, you must answer no. If it's not explicitly written into the text, it does not exist. Consequentially, if you buy into AZRWinger's interpretation, you must also conclude there is no right to ammunition. While the right to bear arms is explicitly written into the text, there is no explicit right to ammunition written into the text. One must INFER from the text that there is a right to ammunition.
So is there a right to ammunition or isn't there? I say there is. I say that the Constitution REQUIRES inferences be made in order to support the explicit rights in the text. If AZRWinger is true to his convictions instead of his politics, he must either agree that inference is required in Constitutional interpretation OR he must assert that only explicit textual rights exist and thus there is no right to ammunition, marriage, or same-sex marriage.
Now, I have asserted that I believe there is a Constitutional right to marriage just as I believe there is a Constitutional right to ammunition. I believe that this right is necessarily inferred from the rights explicitly outlined in the Constitution. The same is true parental rights. Parental rights are not explicitly lined out in the Constitution but few rational people would argue there is a fundamental right to parentage.
Marriage and parentage, like ammunition, are directly related to and natural extensions of the rights outlined in the Constitution.
IF there is a right to marriage, which I propose there is, then there is indeed a right to same-sex marriage. Same-sex marriage flows from the same relation and natural extension of the rights outlined in the Constitution.
Even if you don't believe that same-sex marriage is a natural extension and relation of the rights outlined in the Constitution, you still face the question of equal protection. The Courts are bound to apply the laws equally barring a substantial state interest to the contrary, especially in cases where there is evidence of discriminatory intent or animus as there is in the DOMA legislation.
So is there a right to same-sex marriage? I say there is... I say there is and many of the leading conservative legal scholars agree.
2. HOWEVER, the question before the Court isn't really a question of the fundamental nature of the right of same-sex marriage. The questions before the court are different.
3. In relation to DOMA, the primary question is who gets to define marriage?
The answer has always been that the states get to define marriage until that definition of marriage violates the federal Constitution. And indeed this clear from the varying restraints that states have placed on marriage. Even something as basic as age can be a means to define marriage. States can allow individuals under 18 to get marriage. Some states require parental consent. Some states let you get marriage as early as 15 while in other states, even with parental consent, you can't get married at 15. What does that mean for the federal government?
The federal government has always recognized the state definition of marriage. However, DOMA does not permit the federal government to recognize same-sex marriage which the states have, within their rights, defined as marriage.
This violates federalism and creates problems in compliance with the 10th amendment as Justice Kennedy pointed out in oral arguments. Additionally, as Justice Ginsberg pointed out, there is also the question of equal protection because legal marriages are treated differently by the federal government. Justice Ginsberg called this "skim-milk marriage". So there are two primary theories of Constitutional violation, neither of which rests on the question of the fundamental nature of the right of same-sex marriage. So don't let the false construct presented by AZRWinger fool you.
AND, that's just DOMA.
The Prop 8 question is a completely different question... A different case...
Re: DOMA & Prop 8
The thing about McCain voters voting against it in higher percentages I heard back in 2009.
And OBAMA WAS THE MAIN REASON IT PASSED! IF he had had guts and come out against it it never would have passed.
Idiot voters in California would have voted for an law that required people to wear a steaming pile of doo doo on their heads every other tuesday between noon and 2 if Obama had told them to.

In trac 10 this was a relatively easy way to add stylesheets to every page, as these wouldnt show up as buttons.
What sort of error are you getting, just that there are three buttons?
If this no longer works I am sure this a standard way to add stylesheets now (if nothing else than as a genshi filter). Unfortunately I am tremendously busy at the moment and wont have a chance to fix that in the very near future. If you want, you can probably just remove the style sheet without that being too awful. These are added near line 170 of webui.

Wayne Cunnings is entering his 12th season as the throws coach for the Mavericks. His athletes have earned All-America honors seven times, broken SLC records 13 times and broken school records 19 times. During Cunnings own throwing career at UTA he set the school record in the javelin with a throw of 231'-7" at the NCAA Championships in 1988 en route to an eleventh place finish.
Cunnings coached UTA's first ever female NCAA qualifier Sara Massey, who still holds the school and conference records in the javelin (173'5"). He also coached All-American Jenny Hockett in the javelin in 1992 and All-American Eva Johnson in the heptathlon in 1996. Under Cunnings Marsha French rewrote the conference record books in the shot put five times in 1999 and 2000 throwing 52'1" indoors and 54'11.25" outdoors and earned All-American honors three times. French also broke the school record in the discus with a 166'8" throw at Cunnings next shot put standout, Ashely Dorsey, proceeded to break all of French's shot put records except one. Five school and conference records later Dorsey finished with the indoor record at 54'8", the outdoor record at 54'11.50" and three All-American honors. She finished sixth, seventh and most recently fourth at the 2002 NCAA Championships and is the only female in UTA history to ever finish higher than seventh at the national championships. Only French's outdoor conference meet record still stands at 54'11.25". On UTA's list of top five performers of all time, Cunnings has now coached more than half of all the throwers listed.
Cunnings graduated Magna Cum Laude from UTA in 1988 with a bachelor of science degree.

An awesome sequel to Episode 0.
Ever since you uploaded Episode 0 I was eager to view ep. 1, and you fullfilled, well if not even surpassed, my expectations.
From the story it's kind of 'EH?', but what the hell the animation and style is great so it's a joy nevertheless, and actually there might be some interesting twists. ^^
Rated 4 / 5 stars
needs improvement
the animation was great and it felt like a mainstream television cartoon accept the voice acting for the duck was poor and thus the whole ting suffered all i could focus on was that the duck sounded really slow and retarded lol
Rated 5 / 5 stars
that was a good movie r u gonna make ep. 2
man that movie was good the only prob is u need to get ineractivity in it but it was good
Rated 4 / 5 stars
That was great? By any chance do you have it in .mp4 for us with iPods? I'm going on vacation in the summer and I want something to do on the plane, ;)
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Love the Animation but...
... The Dialog needs some work, it gets a bit boring after awhile and i don't really like the guy doing Throwbacks voice, He just gives off that annoying you-don't-deserve-to-be-the-st ar-of-the-show type feel to throwback, which might have been your point, but it makes it really hard to like the character.
All and all i loved it, just a bit on the flaccid side on the dialog/humor.

A milk allergy is not the same thing as lactose intolerance. Lactose intolerance is the inability to digest lactose, a sugar found in milk and some dairy products. A relatively large population of world suffers from a deficiency of lactase, an enzyme used to digest lactose. This deficiency results in the condition known as lactose intolerance (mtcapra.2010).
Milk allergies, on the other hand, occur when the immune system mistakes milk proteins (most commonly the alpha S1-casein protein) as something the body should fight off. In other words, a milk allergy is a reaction to milk proteins, while lactose intolerance is caused by sensitivity to the "milk sugar" found in some dairy products (KidsHealth.org, 2011).
Goat's milk is less allergenic
All milk contains a certain level of lactose. However, the amount of lactose found in goat's milk is about 10 percent less than cow's milk and about 40 percent less than human milk. The lower levels of lactose found in goat's milk products can make it a suitable alternative.
In addition, the levels of alpha S1 casein in goat's milk are about 90 percent less than cow's milk, making it a far less allergenic food. As a result, consumers that are allergic to cow's milk may be able to consume goat's milk products.

Amid all the hype and excitement of last week's start to the NCAA basketball tournament, two incidents separated by a matter of days put the future of the college game in limbo.
In a historic ruling on Monday, U.S. District Judge Ronald Buckwalter in Philadelphia struck down Proposition 16, the controversial NCAA policy requiring athletes to score a minimum of 820 on the Scholastic Assessment Test regardless of their high school grades. Long decried as being culturally and racially biased, the policy could still stand if the NCAA blocks the ruling and wins on appeal.
In another development later in the week, the University of Minnesota suspended four players for its tournament opener Thursday against Gonzaga after allegations that a former tutor had done academic work for them.
Just as soon as athletes and universities think they've finally won a battle against the NCAA, they take another one to the chin.
Opponents to Proposition 16 say the NCAA should not have as much control in athletes gaining admission into college. They say the decisions should rest with the member institutions, that athletes should be evaluated on an individual basis instead of by a set standard.
But can those member institutions be counted on to keep their academic integrity in the face of winning ballgames?
Proposition 16 is flawed, as are several of the rules set in place by the NCAA. Each year, countless numbers of athletes lose part of their collegiate eligibility because of clerical errors or the like.
One problem with Proposition 16, however, is the way it handles non-qualifiers. By definition, non-qualifiers are athletes who do not meet the NCAA's minimum SAT or grade requirements prior to admission into college. Under the rule, those athletes can attend the university if they are admitted, but they must pay their first year's tuition and may not have any contact with their team, thus losing a year of eligibility.
If the athlete then makes the grade, they are allowed to then take a scholarship and resume playing.
But what about athletes like Temple's Rasheed Brokenborough, who came in as a non-qualifier, earned a scholarship and will soon graduate after only four years? Instead of having an extra year to play and attend graduate school, Brokenborough will be done and still has $15,000 in debt from his freshman year.
Although Brokenborough's story may show what is wrong with the NCAA's rules, the situation at Minnesota proves why the NCAA has to have some control over academic standards. If individual universities were to have sole control over admitting college athletes, who is to say they would not try to stack the deck in their favor by letting their academic standards slide?
In any event, the two incidents of this week prove two things: that a new rule may need to be enacted and that this controversy is far from over. As far as the first weekend of the tournament goes, people around the nation are tearing up their office-pool brackets after the upsets of the first two rounds.
With the Sweet 16 now set, there are as many surprises as who made it through the first two rounds as there are teams who did not. Among the biggest surprises: Gonzaga, Southwest Missouri State, Purdue, Miami of Ohio and Oklahoma, each of which had to defeat higher seeds in both of their games. In fact, the Sooners were the last at-large team selected for the tournament and went on to knock off both Arizona and North Carolina-Charlotte.
Among the big losers: No. 2 seeds, as Stanford, Utah and Miami of Florida were each knocked out in the second round. And don't forget about North Carolina and UCLA, each of which was knocked off in the wee hours of the tournament's opening day.
Who had perhaps the easiest road to the Sweet 16? Try Florida, which may have had the longest trip of any team in the tournament when it had to go to Seattle. The Gators knocked off No. 11-seed Pennsylvania in the first round, then got by 14th-seeded Weber State in the second.
Who's up next for Florida? Another lower seed in No. 10 Gonzaga.
In addition, there's one thing from this past weekend that still has me confused. When did Indianapolis become part of the South and New Orleans move to the Midwest? On another basketball note, think Duke is the undisputed No. 1 team in the country? Think again.
The BEST Index, short for Basketball Education Statistical Tracking, puts out its own poll combining on-court ability with classroom merits. Compiled by the Collegiate Professional Basketball League, the poll is a representation of how the top basketball programs in the nation would be ranked if graduation rates were taken into account.
The top team: Stanford, which was ranked No. 6 in The Associated Press poll for Feb. 22-27 and has a graduation rate of 92 percent over the six-year period between 1991-1997. Duke is rated third in the BEST poll, with St. John's taking the second spot with a No. 8 ranking by The AP and 93-percent graduation rate.
One notable surprise is the College of Charleston at No. 4, which may only be ranked 17th by The AP but has graduated 89 percent of its players during the past six years. On the other end of the spectrum is Cincinnati at No. 27. Although the Bearcats were ranked No. 9 by The AP, they haven't graduated a single player during the six-year period.
It is about time the nation's top programs with true student-athletes finally got the recognition they deserve. Congratulations are in order for former Tascosa and Pennsylvania wrestler Brandon Slay, who won a silver medal in the 167.5-pound weight class last weekend at the 1999 Poland Open in Krotoszyn, Poland. Slay, in his first of two European tournaments this month, easily defeated his first four opponents before dropping a 5-1 decision to Poland's Marcin Jurecki in the final.
Slay will also compete in Bulgaria as he trains for the 2000 Olympics. Feel like you're missing out on the action of spring training? Still think you can hit a major-league curve?
For all the baseball junkies looking to have one more crack at the bat, registration is now underway for the first-ever Texas Tech Baseball Fantasy Camp at Dan Law Field Sept. 17-19.
The camp, limited to the first 60 entrants age 30 or older, will feature instruction given by the Red Raider coaching staff and players and a game at the end of camp. The fee is $395 and includes tickets to Texas Tech baseball and football games, an official Red Raiders baseball jersey and meals.
For more information, contact the Texas Tech athletic department at (806) 742-2607.
Each Monday a member of the Globe-News sports department offers notes, quotes and anecdotes from the local, regional and national sports scene.
