I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Domino's (Ventura, CA).
There was no interview. I just got the huge packet after my background check was approved after I applied online. I did however have to drive to corporate multiple times to make sure the process was still going, which took two weeks of me bugging.
I applied online. I interviewed at Domino's (National City, CA) in April 2017.
I got an emailed on April 17 about an open interview on April 18 at 3:30-5pm & it said to reply back if I was going make it. I emailed back & on the day of the interview I came in at 3:15pm, the manager was a no show. When an employee got a hold of him, it seemed that he was confused. He asked me to come back at 5:30pm, however, I no longer wanted to work for them.
Interview Questions

Very laid back, not to overwhelming. The manger was very nice over the phone when we set up the interview and very understanding on giving me time to get there on time.
Interview Questions

I applied online. I interviewed at Domino's (Etowah, NC) in February 2017.
They called me about 4 days after i had put in a online application. The interview process was fairly simple.The interview itself was fine, and the interviewer was nice and explanatory .
Interview Questions
I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Domino's (Eugene, OR) in February 2017.
It was a very easy interview. All the questions are just about your experience in customer service. It was really uncomfortable for me because of the way the manager acted. He was very forward/flirty and it made me uncomfortable. Also, I was told by him that I would hear back in a few days and it took 5 weeks. I did not accept the offer because it does not seem like somewhere I want to work anymore.
Interview Questions
I applied online. I interviewed at Domino's (New York, NY).
They were really nice, they made me feel comfortable andoing welcomed even before the interview. They are forgiving and are flexible with your answers. They are trying to hire people.
Interview Questions
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Domino's (Bronx, NY) in January 2017.
I applied on a Thursday night and I was called on Saturday to schedule an interview. We agreed to Monday at 5pm. I arrived 10minutes early that Monday, but the place was extremely busy. I ended up waiting an hour before I was called in. The Assis. Man. "interviewed" me. He didn't ask me anything at that point. He just gave me my papers and we spent the next 20 minutes talking about schedules and the state of the store. They are a bit disorganized like drivers just dont show up and stuff. My interview was just talking to some employees and getting papers.
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Domino's (Lansing, MI) in January 2017.
Showed up early, asked to the see the manager, and told to sit and wait while he interviewed someone else. After he finished interviewing that person (to which the interviewer could be overheard saying "sorry I was late") he disappeared into the back of the store. At this time (15 minutes past my interview window) I re-asked the CSR at the front to speak to the hiring manager. He came out once again and asked me some basic questions without any knowledge of who I was or that he had already spoken to me on the phone; in fact he seemingly had no knowledge of me whatsoever. He told me three separate times that "we get paid every other week". After I told him I had worked for a Domino's in the past he asked me if I could pass a background check and when I said "yes" he shook my hand and told me I was hired.
Interview Questions
I applied online. I interviewed at Domino's (New York, NY).
Basically we just sat down at the restaurant. My manager asked me some questions about myself and my work experience. It was very easy going. We joked a bit. Talked about how great the company is. Very easy going.

NIST irradiates solar cells that are manufactured by leading developers of high-efficiency solar photovoltaic cells for space applications. As part of the space-qualification process, the performance of these cells in a space environment must be validated. This validation process includes the characterization of the cells in terms of their resistance to radiation. It is important to learn how each new solar cell design performs in a radiation environment, and the electron beam processing of the samples conducted by NIST supplies the manufacturer with invaluable performance data in the development of these devices.
Several samples can be processed simultaneously by sweeping the samples back and forth under the electron beam using a 1D or 2D scanning mechanism. The incident electron fluence is determined by an onboard Faraday cup mounted to the scanner.

Watch The Teaser For Dan Sachar's Sci-Fi Short LAST OF YOU
The inventor of a memory recording device obsessively replays the last day he shared with his late wife.

U.S. Consulate in Lagos: Free 2 year old orphaned girl to be with her American adoptive parents
For six months a beautiful and vibrant 2 year old girl has been confined to an orphanage in Eastern Nigeria where conditions are deplorable. Her health and safety are in peril due to the risk of contracting the deadly diseases Malaria and Dengue Fever. She was legally adopted by a married American couple in June of 2012. The adoption was cleared by the Department of Homeland Security as well as Nigerian courts and Social Welfare offices. Her adoptive parents have completed all required steps over a two year period and spent thousands of dollars traveling back and forth from Nigeria. They are now Silver Medallion Status with Delta Airlines. The U.S. Consultate in Lagos has been obstinately standing in the way for almost six months, preventing the innocent orphaned girl from coming home to her adopted parents in the state Georgia. The little girl can't even go outside to play. Her parents are heart-broken by the unexplainable delay that, according to the U.S. Consulate website, can last up to a year or more. This innocent child needs to be freed immediately.

Pain Psychology: Hitting The Snooze Button On Your 'Harm Alarm'
Think of pain as being your "harm alarm," a signal that is designed to get your attention, to motivate you to escape whatever is causing it. After all, pain -- potential harm -- could mean injury or even death. In this way, pain serves a useful purpose because it is functions to keep you safe and alive. This all works quite well if you simply cut your finger while dicing vegetables for dinner.
But what about chronic pain? According to the American Academy of Pain Medicine, more than 100 million Americans are living with a chronic pain condition, such as fibromyalgia, migraines, or back pain. Once pain becomes chronic, pain sounds its alarm regularly, perhaps even constantly. How do you escape something that's coming from inside you?
Pain is in the Brain.
People often think of pain as being purely a sensory experience -- meaning a highly unpleasant physical sensation -- and they tend to ignore the psychological aspects of pain.
No matter the cause of your pain, or where you feel it in your body, it is all processed in your central nervous system which is controlled by your brain and spinal cord. It's common to think of pain being located in the part of your body that hurts, such as back pain being located in your back. However even in cases where people have had surgery for back pain -- their back pain is actually located centrally, in the nervous system. Your brain and entire nervous system are influenced by your thoughts, your feelings, your beliefs, your memory, and your environment. In fact, to a very large degree, how much pain you feel after surgery is determined by your mood and other psychological factors.
This doesn't mean your pain isn't real. It means that pain is fundamentally a psychological phenomenon. For everyone. Narrowly focusing on pain as a sensory problem has contributed to the overprescribing of opioid medication.
We've been treating pain the wrong way.
In fact, psychology is built into the definition of pain. The International Association for the Study of Pain defines pain as both "...a noxious sensory and emotional experience." Treating pain from the physical perspective only ignores half of the definition of pain. If we treat half of anything, can we be surprised when it does not work well?
Pain acts as a stressor on your nervous system and your mind. It causes changes in your respiratory and heart rates, increases muscle tension, constricts blood vessels, and can cause anxiety, over-focus on pain, and feelings of helplessness.
You can learn specific skills to calm your nervous system, thereby dampening pain processing in your brain and spinal cord. Used regularly, these skills can work as effectively as medication to ease pain and related distress
Four Tips for Calming Your Nervous System for Pain Control
1. Take stock of your triggers and treat your stress. Stress amplifies pain, so it's important to reduce it. You may not be able to control the circumstance that triggers your stress, but you can control your reaction to it. Learn to become less reactive and you will find you have much greater control.
2. Tune in to your breath. Work to change your breathing pattern so that it becomes deep "belly" breathing (also called diaphragmatic breathing). Use diaphragmatic breathing several times daily. Stick with it and release your expectation that it will change your pain right away. Remind yourself that the goal is retrain your nervous system first; pain reduction comes later.
3. Learn to meditate. Meditation gives you brain control and helps you focus less on pain -- thereby directly reducing pain and suffering. Used regularly, meditation is powerful pain medicine.
4. Harness the power of your thoughts and emotions! Your everyday thoughts and feelings have a profound effect on your pain. This means the more you focus on your pain the worse it will get.
With pain psychology and cognitive behavioral therapy, you can learn how to view things differently in order to chart a positive course towards less pain. Consider working with a pain psychologist, health psychologist, or therapist skilled in cognitive behavioral therapy for chronic pain.

Acupuncture is an increasingly popular form of relief from traditional Chinese medicine. Eastern practices may seem out of the norm in the west but they can bring interesting results. Long thin needles are inserted into specific points on the body — called meridians, known as pathways into your body — and are believed to help rebalance energy flow. Some practitioners believe it stimulates certain nerves and muscles.
Hypnosis is an interesting avenue to pursue for pain relief. The conscious part of the brain is temporary out of service during hypnosis, leaving the person relaxed and completely focused on letting go of any sort of distracting thoughts. Our brains are incredibly powerful and, of course, what lets us know we're in pain. Letting go and focusing, and harnessing that concentration, can leave a profound effect on your body and the pain you're feeling.
If you've ever truly felt the heat from eating anything with a chili pepper, you have capsaicin to thank for that. This component is what gives chili peppers their fiery oomph and is something that can help in the relief of joint pain and more. Capsaicin cream, when applied to the skin, that helps relieve pain by decreasing a natural substance in your body — substance P. The downside is it can take several weeks for full relief so this is probably best used with conventional medication.
One of the reasons why yoga is a popular exercise is that it leaves you feeling truly great. It's a combination of mediation, stretching, core work, and more that helps you to let go of anything distracting and focus on certain parts of your body. Naturally, this is also a good method of pain relief. It helps decrease joint pain and improve some range of motion while certain types of yoga may also decrease pain linked to the lower back.
Music therapy as pain relief has two components that rely on our brain. First, pain is registered in our brain by a series of signals — something we already know. However, some studies have shown that playing music, or hearing something pleasant, can release dopamine from the brain that can make you feel good or, in the case of pain relief, better. This is based on perception: the more pleasant you find a song, the less pain you feel.

David Gumpert dares to ask whether regulators have the public's interest in mind or the economic interests of dairy conglomerates. He assesses how the government's anti–raw-milk campaign fits into a troublesome pattern of expanding government efforts to sanitize the food supply—even in the face of ever-increasing rates of chronic disease like asthma, diabetes, and allergies. The Raw Milk Revolution provides an unsettling view of the future, in which nutritionally dense foods may be available largely through underground channels.

For the past several months, different groups of attackers have distributed malware through Microsoft Office documents that contain malicious macros, reviving a technique that has been out of style for over a decade.
A malware program dubbed Spark that steals payment card data from compromised point-of-sale (POS) systems is likely a modification of an older Trojan called Alina, and highlights a continuing, lucrative business for cybercriminals.
A security researcher has developed a tool to demonstrate how the unauthenticated data packets in the 802.11 wireless LAN protocol can be used as a covert channel to control malware on an infected computer.
Users who are careful to download files only from trusted websites may be tricked by a new type of Web vulnerability: this one cons them into downloading malicious executable files that are not actually hosted where they appear to be.

HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
A smarter way to print for busy small business owners, combining speedy printing with scanning and copying, making it easier to produce high quality documents and images at a touch of a button.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
I've had a multifunction printer in the office going on 10 years now. It was a neat bit of kit back in the day -- print, copy, scan, fax -- when printing over WiFi felt a bit like magic. It's seen better days though and an upgrade's well overdue. This HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 looks like it ticks all the same boxes: print, copy, scan, and fax. (Really? Does anyone fax anything any more? I guess it's good to know the facility's there, just in case.) Printing over WiFi is more-or- less standard these days.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
As a freelance writer who is always on the go, I like my technology to be both efficient and effective so I can do my job well. The HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 Inkjet Printer ticks all the boxes in terms of form factor, performance and user interface.
Windows 10 for Business / Dell XPS 13
I'd happily recommend this touchscreen laptop and Windows 10 as a great way to get serious work done at a desk or on the road.
Windows 10 / HP Spectre x360
Ultimately, I think the Windows 10 environment is excellent for me as it caters for so many different uses. The inclusion of the Xbox app is also great for when you need some downtime too!
Windows 10 / Lenovo Yoga 910
For me, the Xbox Play Anywhere is a great new feature as it allows you to play your current Xbox games with higher resolutions and better graphics without forking out extra cash for another copy. Although available titles are still scarce, but I'm sure it will grow in time.

Allies of state superintendent Glenda Ritz and State Board of Education members are digging in for what seems likely to be a contentious meeting.
Tensions continue to build between state superintendent Glenda Ritz and the rest of the State Board, but legislative leaders would prefer not to get involved.
Superintendent Glenda Ritz shut down the Nov. 13 State Board meeting over what she called an improper motion. But the Attorney General says the motion is OK.
Ritz and Pence want the National Association of State Boards of Education to help defuse tension on the State Board of Education.
Public Access Counselor Luke Britt says there wasn't enough evidence to conclude a secret meeting of the Indiana State Board of Education took place.
Indiana House Speaker Brian Bosma says he hopes Glenda Ritz and the State Board can work out their differences, but the legislature will intervene if necessary.
Superintendent of Public Instruction Glenda Ritz adjourned Wednesday's State Board meeting without calling a vote and left the room.
The State Board of Education gave first-round approval to changes to Indiana's school accountability system.
Indiana schools will get their A-F letter grades Nov. 15, but state education officials won't make those results public until after an appeals window closes.
The panel tasked with revising Indiana's A-F accountability system continues its work even as tensions build between the superintendent and the State Board.

The CasinoMature
An underachiever ends up playing in a game with stakes beyond his wildest expectations. But if he can't even comprehend what he's playing against how can understand what he's playing for. Or the price should he loose?
It was my best friend's birthday and somehow I was bored out of my skull. How does that happen anyway? Birthdays are supposed to be simple. Load up on booze and hit the town with the guys right? The night started off decent, had a good meal at Bang Thai Dee – that new place that opened up in town. And then Henry got his bright idea. Let's go have a night at the casino.
I fucking despise casinos.
I mean yes – a lot of people like gambling. It's just not for me. Everyone's different – I accept that. Me? Give me a good meal and a shag over the joy of playing with money. I'm not a gambler. But my main issue was that this particular casino was just tacky. Henry told me he liked the joint ''cos it was posh and felt like something out of James Bond'. I guess if I squinted I could sort of see his point... except the speakers would still be blaring Michael Bublé, the staff would still look like they wanted to kill themselves, there would still be no discernible dress code (I swear I saw a man wearing sweatpants) and this establishment would still continue to be a plastic hell.
I was sat in the corner brooding and watching the regulars of this fine establishment. It was the only real form of entertainment. I saw the bar with its crumbling paint job and years old stains where the staff tried to pretend to be busy looking horribly unprofessional with their untucked shirts, I saw taxi drivers come in and risk a whole night's wage on a spin of a wheel, I saw tiny old decrepit women who looked like they still remembered Queen Victoria manage to make a fiver last a whole night showing a kind of fiendish if useless intelligence. I saw the desperate and the greedy under glowing neon lights good only for making everything look vaguely sinister and give me a mild headache. I was just sat there feeling smug about how much better than everyone else here I was despite being in the same place. After half an hour I guess Henry finally wondered where I had wandered off to. He slams down onto the chair next to me with a shit-eating grin like he'd just been declared king of the world.
'What's got you so happy?' I ask.
'Just won a tenner on the slots,' he smiles 'if I win another twenty tonight I can get myself the new Star Genocide game.'
'I think the important term there my friend is 'if',' I smirk.
'Oh stop being… well yourself. It's my day. I'm happy. That's what counts. Come on, let's head up to the roof to have a fag and you can tell me what's really bothering you.'
I try to hold out. I mean as a man god forbid I should tell my best friend my feelings. But an hour later in the bar after a few pints it all comes out. (God I hate being a lightweight).
'Sarah's left me!' I wailed.
Henry looks at me confused 'so?'
I glared at him darkly, 'Oh I don't fucking know, the girl I've been with for four years has decided I'm no longer good enough for her. I eyed him darkly
'I mean yeah, I should just get over it like she's some hussy I had a one nighter with, it's just the woman I planned to settle down and have fucking kids with. But "I'm too immature" or "I'm not trying to move myself forward as a person". I was starting to raise my voice a little too loud was getting that funny look you get from English people who are dying to hear the conversation but would just die if someone thought they were being nosy 'You see I'm just happy to come home from my shitty job and sit around playing video games. She wants someone with ambitions beyond working at a job I hate and having kids I will eventually hate.' I felt good to say this hit, felt like if I shouted it with enough fury it'd become true and then I could continue not caring…
Henry brushes his dirty blonde hair away from his eyes bemused, 'yeah but… like why let it bother you, it's women stuff she's wrong you're right you'll get another chick.'
'It bothers me because I think she's right you dolt.'
Henry finishes off the last of his beer and stands up shaking his head, 'maybe' he says. 'Maybe you have a point and she's right about all this stuff, but whining to me don't change anything. I know you hate this stuff but loosen up and try to enjoy yourself – for me if nothing else. I'm off to play some slots and see if I can pull.'
He sauntered off and left me with my thoughts. Fuck, the man's usually an idiot. I hate it when he's right. Well a broken clock is still right twice a day an' all.
I went down to the casino floor and change a fifty for some chips; I try my luck at Blackjack. It's about all my addled brain can handle at this moment in time. The room isn't spinning yet but it's not standing still either. After a few rounds of this obviously rigged game I grow frustrated. It's just that little edge to make sure the house always wins that makes the bile rise in my throat. I start playing more aggressively – taking more risks. It works at first and I win a few hands. I make back about a tenner but then my bad luck turns even worse. I seem to have attracted the attention of this tiny, ancient man in a pristine white suit and big bottle top glasses who won't stop staring at me like he knows me. He was playing the game before I got there. He's quite slow and steady in his approach and unlike me seems to be winning. 'Hit me' the man spits out, I roll my eye's he's defiantly made a mistake here, I can see in his hand that he has a twenty why he'd throw away such a good hand on the chance of getting a twenty one baffles me. But surprisingly it works for him. Again and again just the right card turns up. Five times in a row he gets a twenty one. I'm starting to wonder why he hasn't been thrown out yet but the staff don't care. Chips are piled up all around him like a defensive fortress. I lose another two rounds and by now his attentive unblinking stare is beginning to freak me out. On the next hand just as I'm about to stick with a nineteen he draws uncomfortably close to my eye
'Don't stick, hit boy. Trust me'
with a snarl I forced out the words stick. The Old man chuckles. It turns out the next card in the deck is a two. He wins the game again. I take what remains of my chips and storm up to the roof. I need some godamn fresh air… again. When will this hell night end?

Underground: Chapter 9: Hatter's Words
Hatter woke up and tried to move his arm to grab his hat and put it back on. But it wouldn't budge, there was weight on it. He looked over to see the boy lying on his arm, fast asleep. Hatter didn't want to wake him…it would be awfully rude, but the boy had to be up.
I don't think I can sugarcoat it any longer…I have to tell him…
"Hatter?" The boy asked, opening up one eye.
"Yes…you fell asleep on me." He smiled, looking into the boy's eyes. It reminded him so much of Alice that it almost hurt. He didn't realize how much he missed her.
"Wake the others…" Hatter said.
Aaron nodded, shaking Jack awake. "What?" He questioned.
"I don't know…the Hatter asked me to wake everyone up."
"Can you go make us breakfast please?" Hatter said.
"I suppose."
"Oh and on your way…go wake up Ash and tell her to come in here. We shall eat here." Hatter told him.
"Whatever Tarrant…" Jack sighed and walked out, looking much like a zombie.
Aaron finished waking up everyone. Ash came in the room, looking just as groggy as everyone else…except the Mad Hatter. The Mad Hatter was wide eyed and nervous. How could he just tell this scared little boy that he probably would've had to battle? Aaron sat down next The Hatter and the Hatter became even more nervous. His hands shaking a bit. He didn't look at Aaron, not until Jack came back carrying bowls of…odd flakes to them. He called them Frosted Flakes.
Tarrant turned his head to Aaron, who was pretty much stuffing his face and asked what they were.
"They're sugar-coated corn flakes," Aaron stated "And corn flakes are grain."
"Oh…ok…" He nodded, fondling the flakes with his spoon. Finally he took one out with his fingers and tasted it.
"Not bad…" He smiled and began eating it. He ate rather quickly for someone who just learned what Frosted Flakes were. And Aaron realized his hands were shaking a bit.
"Hatter…your hands are shaking." Aaron pointed out.
"Oh…are they? You know what, I'm a little cold. Don't take any mind to it." Hatter lied.
"Ok." The boy said suspiciously. He finished his frosted flakes though. There was not much talk after that…except when Hatter offered to take the dishes down to the kitchen, beating Cheshire, who loved to explore. Hatter picked up Aaron's first, while bending down Hatter asked Aaron if he could help him.
"Uh sure…Hatter." Aaron smiled, picking up the others bowls and spoons. Well except March's…he wouldn't give Aaron his spoon.
The Mad Hatter took Malymkun and Abundiantus's small bowl of even smaller cereal which Jack called coco crispies. Aaron and the Mad Hatter walked out together and didn't speak until the way back, where Hatter worked up the courage to tell him.
"Hey…" He said blankly.
"Hi." Aaron said.
"Ok…so I have something to tell you. Um…so you see…well…" He said. Wow this is harder than I expected. It should be easy…but it's not.
"What?" The boy questioned, looking in Hatter's eyes, which just made Hatter disappointed; he wanted Aaron to be happy…not worrying about saving all of Wonderland.
"You were never supposed to be here…in Wonderland I mean…" Hatter said. "This was supposed to be Alice's job. She was supposed to save us for the fourth time. Not you. But now…it's too late to bring Alice here. We're on a delicate time schedule…the closet won't hold the queen forever, you know? We have to do this soon…and we have to win…or Wonderland will be…normal. All lunatics banned…which is just about everyone of us…or…all of us. And none of us can really survive out in the real world. The Hare would be sent to the science lab, as would Mctwisp. I would be left to figure out everyone on my own…who knows what would happen with Malymkun and Abundiantus…probably given to some kids who would get bored with Abundiantus, and scared by Malymkun. The talking flowers would die. The do do bird would stutter more than usual. The little birdies wouldn't know what to do, they're made for delivering messages." The hatter explained his fears quickly. "None of us are sane enough to go up in the real world…and we would never have enough time to get Alice…you may have to battle." Hatter admitted.
Aaron was immediately struck with fear. He couldn't win for Wonderland…he had no training. He was only six! I can't save Wonderland…
"It was supposed to be my mummy here?" The boy asked, upset.
"Yes….it wasn't that we don't like you…it's just that…we never knew you existed." Hatter told the boy.
The boy hung his head "I bet you would like my mummy here much more than you want me." The boy said and ran off.
"AARON!" Hatter yelled. The boy ran on though. Hatter chased after him. Through the twists and turns through the castle, Hatter didn't give up. He needed to make the boy realize that he cared for him, just as much as he cared for his mother.
Aaron finally stopped, but he didn't look at the Hatter, he looked at the wall right in front of him.
"Aaron!" The Hatter yelled. "Calm down please."
"You don't want me here in Wonderland, admit it! You love my mom much more! You're lying when you said you'd always be there for me! You're just a lying lunatic!" The boy yelling in the face of the breathless Hatter.
Hatter looked hurt…he wasn't a lunatic nor a liar. The face on Aaron seemed stronger than the words he just said. He looked upset and mad and didn't even want to look at Hatter.
"I never lie…" The Hatter stated, bending down to Aaron's size, putting his hands on his shoulders.
"I care for you just as much as I care for your mother. No joke…I don't kid about things like that. Never. Aaron…you're a great kid…and when you step onto that battle field…no doubt I'll be there standing as close as I can. And if you fall…I'll break the rules just for you. I'd go onto that battle field and fight alongside with you if I have to. Aaron, I care about you…I cried when you were taken." Hatter admitted.
"Ok…: The boy told Hatter. "But…what if something happens?"
"Don't think about it!" Hatter scolded. "Now come on…let's go to the room." Hatter smiled.

As climbdowns go, it is right up there with Edward Norton on Everest in 1924.
And racing, as it strives to bring the whip debate back under control, could certainly profit from the character and leadership of Norton. The great man might well testify that the way up often proves a good deal less perilous than the descent.
The latest revision to the rules, announced this week, potentially restores jockeys to their use of the whip before radical changes introduced in October. All the intervening heartache, all the negative publicity, would itself amount to an ample rebuke to those who might now seem to have taken the sport on an odyssey as hazardous as it was pointless. It would be naïve, however, to imagine that the extent of the damage can now be circumscribed. In fact, the route back to base camp not only forfeits the uncharted panoramas above – which might have justified the culture shock of recent months – but exposes the sport to an abyss.
Certainly, the RSPCA's intemperate response to the British Horseracing Authority's final retreat offers a frightening measure of the drop. A press release on the day spoke of "a black day" for racing, even of jockeys being allowed to "beat horses with impunity". As ever, a better assessment was subsequently made by its equine consultant, David Muir. Nonetheless, he warned that successive amendments to the rules meant that it was "quickly becoming difficult" for the RSPCA to continue its support.
Muir has long served as a priceless fulcrum between the extremes of the welfare debate, both of which can stray into irresponsibility and ignorance. It is vital, then, that regulators and jockeys alike do not gaily abandon the improved aesthetic profile of race finishes since October.
The BHA's new chief executive, Paul Bittar, was in such a hurry to abandon "fundamentally flawed" rules before the Cheltenham Festival that nobody yet knows how the new ones are supposed to be applied. For now, those officials who will be presiding at Cheltenham a fortnight on Tuesday know only that a jockey who uses his whip more than eight times (seven on the Flat) will trigger an overall review of his ride, where he would previously have received an automatic ban.
By vesting so much in the discretion of stewards, the BHA nearly guarantees complaints about inconsistency. The guidelines being compiled must, therefore, confine discretion, unmistakably, to the very margins of a regime most jockeys have embraced, however reluctantly, to commendable effect.
The sport must not be disingenuous. Riders have to be made aware that ninth or 10th slaps, in a close finish to a big race, will not suddenly be tolerated because the stakes happen to be higher. Use of "common sense" by stewards must not mean a judicious blind eye to flagrant disregard of rules, in high-profile situations. It should simply mean that jockeys who have been caught out by the strict letter of the law – as has very occasionally been the case through the correction of wayward horses, sooner in the interests of safety than momentum – might now be exonerated.
That way, it might still be possible to satisfy Muir, and others striving to ensure that the debate is an educated one, that jockeys will still be punished for administering extra slaps merely in the hope of encouraging a tired horse. The temptation to do so in big races, in particular, could perhaps be addressed by centralised regulation of the whip at elite meetings. This would not only absolve unpaid stewards of a thankless task, but also diminish inconsistency.
Some stewards have clearly felt embarrassed by an obligation of zero tolerance; some riders, likewise, have paid a disproportionate price for what might be celebrated as perfectly responsible horsemanship. Both camps are also aggrieved by public misapprehensions. These, they fear, were exacerbated by the reform process, well-intentioned as it was – and are scarcely discouraged by the use of a word as emotive as "whip" (suggestive of some Victorian hunting crop) to describe an air-cushioned, foam-padded stick.
Too many jockeys, however, appear to have welcomed this week's developments as the end of the whip countdowns that appear to have caused them such difficulty. Yes, "common sense" should perhaps mean an inattentive horse at the end of a four-mile chase might pardonably be given a couple more slaps than a sprinter over five furlongs. But the fact is that jockeys have largely proved perfectly capable of riding at least within the spirit of the tougher rules and, as a result, achieved a more pleasing spectacle for the sport's own audience – quite apart from those who might look upon it with suspicion.
To that extent, there should be no going back. But it might yet prove hard enough just to stand still.

I awaken. I am roped to a wooden pole. This should be easy to take care of. I try to turn into a small bird.
Wha's happening?
I can't transform.
I struggle to get my hands free of the ropes, but they are tied too tight. That's when three human's come into the room. USMCs. I'm sure of it. I could tell by their uniforms. They stood with their guns pointed at me, but they didn't shoot. They just stared at me. Then another man entered.
Their sergeant.
He looked quite unconfortable though, being in the same room as me, and he should.
"See. The test results are postitive." One of the men says with a shaky voice.
"You do know what this means sir." The only woman out of the four humans says firmly.
"Yes, I understand. Thankyou, Falcon. You are a good little shape-shifter, that you are." He says in a mockery tone. How does that human know my name? "Lock her in the cell with the rest of them," The sergeant orders.
"Yes, sergeant, Tim Conner." The other boy who hasn't talked yet says. He looks a little bit scrawny and weak. Come to think of it, when he entered the room, he was half hiding behind the other two.
Fools, I think to myself. Once he was done untying the ropes, I threw a punch at the one man. It hit his right cheek bone. He fell suprised and hurting from the impact. I smash the woman, and the other man head's together which knocked them out. Only the Sergeant remained standing. He pulled out a sniper from his belt. I ran at him. So a few bullets won't hurt. He shot. I felt the odd bullet go through my stomach. I look down at it.
A needle...
I find myself losing concisness. No.I shook it away, and ripped out the needle. The Sergant and I looked at each other for what seem like forever. He had brown hair. His army outfit green with multiple badges. He should also get "The Fool" badge. Actually... All humans should.
"What have you bastards done to me and my village?" I ask.
"Just destroyed it. What have you shift-changers done to this Earth?" He asks, mocking my tone.
"It's the human's fault and you know it." I sneer. He just smirks and shoots another needle at me. It hits the center of my chest.
"Nice aim," I say, and then I pass out.
I awake in a cell. I see 6 other shape-shifters in here too, and I could also see three skin-walkers. I stand up. The cell wasn't too big. Just big enough for us to fit.
"Hello," A teen-aged skin-walker apears infront of me. He has light brown hair with blue eyes. His skin is a peach colour, but I could see a hint of yellow. I just stare at him.
"I'm Benijimen Tiger Wolf. What's you name?" He asks with a big smile on his face.
"Falcon Rose Feathclaw," I say in an emotionless tone. His smile grows.
"Nice name. Are you new here?" He asks. Idiot.
"No sh*t Sherlock." I say annoyed. "Now get away from me."
"As you wish!" Be backed away from me, and went to talk to some others. I sat in the far corner of the cell away from everyone else. That's when a human came.
"Come with us, Ben," The human says. Ben just looks at the human innocently. The man grabs the teenagers arm against his will.
"We are testing theory 105." The man says to the human that guards the room beyond ours.
"Again? But that always fails! The shape-changers always end up dead! When are you just going to give up?" The gaurd cries.
"Oh shut-up you big baby." The man shoved the guard aside, and walked through the door.
"Poor Ben." A girl skin-walker says.
"Why poor Ben?" I ask.

Then I was treated to Sola Sisters' excellent post God Came Down.
I don't know why I hadn't thought of things quite the way her opening paragraph explains it:
God Came Down
Have you ever stopped to ponder why it is that, when the world attempts to portray what it would look like for the supernatural world to intersect with the natural world, the things they come up with are most often frightening and perverted in some way? Many examples of this come to mind: werewolves, vampires, Frankenstein, zombies, aliens, mummies, and so on. The human mind seems predisposed to think of the supernatural in a way that is scary, frightening, and most often a horrific perversion of what is normal and natural. From a Christian perspective, though, doesn't it make sense that the natural, unregenerated mind - in its sin-darkened state - can only conjure up a darker, more frightening version of what it "knows" (humans and human-ess) when attempting to make sense of the world? After all, the Bible tells us that man is darkened in his understanding, his wisdom is foolishness.
The truth is that, without benefit of the special revelation of God's Word, the Bible, the human view of that which is supernatural seems to default to the freakish and the frightening.
But what does it really look like for God to enter into time and space, and intersect with the natural world by taking on flesh and dwelling among us?

What Wile E. Coyote Can Teach Us About Customer Experience
Wile E. Coyote famously never achieved a life-long goal of catching and eating the crafty and elusive Road Runner. A decided exception to the rule of customer experience, Wile E. fell victim countless times to the faulty equipment continually supplied to him by ACME.
Typically, in a situation such as this, whereby a consistently disappointed customer never receives value for money or even compensation for his or her purchases, that customer would simply take their business elsewhere.
Let down time and time again by ACME, Wile E. continued to buy their products, with seemingly infinite levels of faith that it would work this time. Despite receiving countless injuries incurred by faulty catapults, cranes and explosive equipment, the Coyote kept coming back for more.
It is not possible to say how much ACME made off this unsuspecting customer in profits, but it is likely to be 100% more than any company operating in the real world in the twenty-first century. In any other situation, this firm should not have been so complacent as to continually disappoint such a loyal customer. Taking advantage of Coyote's loyal custom, among other things, the company was able to capitalise on situations that it should have taken more seriously for the following reasons.
Here is a list of reasons that Wile E. Coyote is the exception to the rule when it comes to customer experience, allowing ACME to nearly get away with murder (on more than a few occasions).
Wile E. Coyote is in the desert
Presumably limited to just one supplier of explosives and contraptions, Coyote had no other choice but to return to ACME again and again in his pursuit of dinner. This customer was supplied with lightning with which to strike down the Road Runner.
At first, this product seemed promising, pursuing the intended target across valleys and canyons, until, for apparently no reason at all, it changed targets and headed for Coyote himself, who was subsequently frazzled and in pain. Such a failure on behalf of this company to deliver on its promises was possible because Coyote lives in the desert and has no other choice but to continue to buy shoddy merchandise from the same company.
Your customers, however, are in the happy position of having an array of options open to them, both online and on the high street, as they don't live in the desert. They therefore can expect quick and painless deliveries of high quality goods from other providers, should you fail to do so.
Wile E. Coyote is desperate
His consistent failures and misfortunes have rendered the coyote desperate to achieve what becomes every day, a less attainable goal. Starved of food, Wile E. likely lacked the energy and the motivation to seek out another supplier, even if there was one in the middle of the desert.
While Coyote struggles on in desperation to purchase more and more outlandish contraptions with which to catch the Road Runner, your customers can browse the market at their leisure. They might be desperate to get their hands on a product by a certain time, but they have options available to them that Wile E. could only dream of.
Wile E. Coyote doesn't have social media
Faced with a company which clearly has no product evaluation processes in place, Wile E. Coyote might have taken to social media to express his woes. On numerous occasions he could have capitalised on the opportunity to upload incriminating selfies (such as the harrowing piece of evidence shown below), demonstrating ACME's blatant disregard for his own health and safety.
The online community would be up in arms about this irresponsible and extortionate mis-selling by ACME to desperate and desolate customers. Especially one who has been so loyal to the brand. ACME would have at least been forced to concede a refund to the Coyote in order to salvage their reputation, had social media been involved.
Fortunately, your clients and customers are wired up to their smartphones and laptops 24 hours a day. They are in a position of power when it comes to your brand's reputation, acting either as your biggest fan and giving you free advertising, or as your worst nightmare, letting their followers know about the terrible service they received or the faulty items you continue to provide without apology.
Wile E. Coyote is the exception to the rule
When it comes to customer experience, you have to take care of your customers, because to engender any sense of loyalty for your brand, you need to give your customers what they want. This not only includes supplying a consistently good product or service, but ensuring that when it does go wrong, you do your best to fix the problem.
Unlike the unfortunate Coyote, your customers won't continue to be loyal to a company so apathetic as to take no action when things don't go according to plan. Treat your customers with respect and ensure long-lasting relationships that continue to benefit both you and your clients.

The last day of our trip. We were up and making the walk to the bus station in Iceland early this morning. The good thing was that it wasn't raining. We took the bus to the airport. The only picture today was taken by Mitch in the airplane as we were waiting for push back. You will notice the raindrops on the window. We arrived in Iceland in the rain and left in the rain. But, we had a beautiful partly sunny day in between.

Home, Sweet, Home - Locked, Stocked & Protected
There is something to be said about a good tidy before stacking the packs on the front porch. It always helps me to clear my head and use all daily items and imagine whether they will be used or not. I also love to come home after a trip to a home that doesn't require a clean up to add to the acclimatization of the return.

Gaddafi strikes back in fight for Libya
Australian Broadcasting Corporation
Broadcast: 07/03/2011
Libyan opposition forces suffered a major setback today after Moamar Gaddafi's troops launched a fierce counter-assault in rebel-held towns. Middle East correspondent Ben Knight joins the program from Brega in Libya's east.
TranscriptLEIGH SALES, PRESENTER: Now to the escalating conflict in Libya, where President Gaddafi's stepping up his attacks as he scrambles to regain control of key cities. Lightly armed rebel forces have spent the past 24 hours battling a bloody onslaught from jets and artillery. The number of deaths and injuries has prompted the United Nations to demand urgent access to the civilian population.
The ABC's Middle East correspondent Ben Knight is following events in the town of Ajdabiya in the country's east and I spoke to him a short time ago.
Ben Knight, paint a picture for us. What exactly have you been seeing in the past 24 hours?
BEN KNIGHT, MIDDLE EAST CORRESPONDENT: Well, Leigh, what we've seen is this battle really, really bog down just to the south of us here near the town of Ras Lanuf. As you would know, a couple of days ago the opposition forces were surging along this road and many of them plan to take it all the way to Tripoli. But the counter-attack yesterday by the Gaddafi forces has stopped them in their tracks and neither side seems to be able to move that front line. The front line as I said is just to the south of us here. And what's happened is that the Gaddafi forces are attacking with planes, they're attacking with helicopters, they're outnumbered on the opposition side and so there seems to be this stalemate. Now, what happened this morning was that a number of journalists who were staying in a hotel just near the front line, they were awoken at four o'clock in the morning and told to get out because the Gaddafi army was coming. A few journalists actually stayed there and tried to push down towards the front line and a Libyan Airforce jet make a low pass over them. So, it is quite a dangerous place down there. And it doesn't seem as though either side is able to break through.
LEIGH SALES: Given that, does anybody have any idea how protracted this conflict is likely to be?
BEN KNIGHT: Well, no, but it's certainly not looking good. As I say, the Libyan Army, despite its overwhelming technical superiority, does not seem to be able to even crack into the cities that are outside Tripoli. And what we've seen is some heavy, heavy fighting in places like Zawiya and Misurata over the past couple of days. Now, the Government says that it's broken into those towns, that it's retaken them, but the evidence says otherwise. And so you have these people who are under siege, they're surrounded by tanks and by the Airforce and for days the Army has been trying to break in there and simply hasn't been able to do it. Here in the east, it's another very, very difficult nut for the Government to crack. So, this looks like it is going to be protracted and it looks like there's going to be a lot more blood spilt before it finishes.
LEIGH SALES: The UN has asked for urgent access to the civilian population. Do we have any sense of how ordinary people are being affected in these conflict areas?
BEN KNIGHT: Well that's going to be quite interesting because Muammar Gaddafi of course has invited the United Nations to conduct an investigation. So now that the United Nations says, "Well, let us in, let us see what's happening in these cities," will he actually allow that to happen? But what we know is that it's very difficult. Some of these towns are running out of food. There are convoys that are leaving the east here, trying to make it over to the west to bring things like food and medical supplies. But the people who are trapped in those towns, there are people dying, there are people being that are being killed. In the fighting here yesterday, in the town of Benjawaj (phonetic spelling), there was some very, very heavy fighting, some very heavy violence and it was simply not possible for the ambulances to get in. Now as far as we know this morning, that town is right in the middle of no man's land. The opposition forces on one side, the Gaddafi forces on the other. It's very likely there'll be some more fighting there at the moment. But what the situation is in that town is impossible to tell. The people in there must be terrified and I'm sure many of them are injured.
LEIGH SALES: Ben Knight, our correspondent there on the ground, thankyou very much for making time.
BEN KNIGHT: Thanks, Leigh.

Discussion in 'Draft Zone' started by CowboyMike, Oct 5, 2011.
I think you can make a pretty good argument that RG3>Bradford.
If a QB that we had rated very highly (higher than what we were picking) fell to us, I think we should consider it. The value must be there though.
Some of the names on that list will not go in the 1st...but I see your point, nevertheless.
My choice would be to absolutely not burn a 1st rounder on a QB--not yet anyway. But value is the key...kind of like GB nabbing Rogers late in Rd1.
I'd draft Landry Jones or Griffin in the first. Would not draft Barkley or Tanneyhill in the first.

World Leaders in Load Cells and Unique Weighing Assemblies for Silo, Vessel and Process Weighing
The 350Ti load cell has been replaced by the new model T85-T load cell.
The 350Ti stainless steel shear beam is a high accuracy load cell for industrial weighing applications, but primarily for platform scales due to its low height and blind loading hole, which introduces the load into the shear beam in the most optimum way. It has OIML C3 approval (which is ideal in legal-for-trade platforms) and it can withstand harsh working environments due to its fully welded and hermetically sealed design (IP68/IP69K).
To reduce corner correction (setup and installation time) to a minimum, the 350Ti load cell has optimised pre-corner adjustment, calibrated in mV/V/Ohm by output current matching at ± 0.05%.
Make an enquiry about this reliable, cost-effective load cell for platform scales.
Ask a question about this world class, competitively priced load cell.

Klein Resigns As Head Coach
March 13, 2012
LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com) - Jen Klein has resigned as head women's soccer coach at UNLV to take a position on the Washington State coaching staff, the UNLV athletic department announced.
Klein leaves after two years as the Rebels' head coach, and posted a 19-18-4 overall record. That included an 8-10-3 mark this past season, and UNLV qualified for the Mountain West tournament both years under Klein.
"I have known Jennifer for several years both as a student-athlete and as a head coach," said Jim Livengood, UNLV Director of Athletics. "She has done an outstanding job for us at UNLV. We wish her nothing but the best in her new position."
A national search has begun for a new head coach.

I promised Mathew that I wouldn't interrupt, no matter how desperate I was to ask him a question, so he untied me and put the duct tape at the other end of the room, where we could forget about it. He didn't want me sitting on the kitchen chair, either, for it seemed to hold too many bad memories. For now, we were allies. It wouldn't last, but we had to make the most of it.
When we comfortably settled on the sofa, he began.
"You know that things aren't how you always thought they were. Well, that's true. There's a lot about this world that is different - more different than any human can possibly imagine, because everything that they've been told is a lie, and there's nothing you can do about it. What's more, there's nothing anybody else can do about it, either.
"You also know that you're not your parents' daughter, because I've told you that. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done - that was wrong. Insensitive. I suppose you're wondering why they didn't tell you the truth, but the answer is that they didn't know either. It was all a secret. They think you're their own beloved daughter who can do no wrong. For now, it's best if they carried on thinking that. But it's about time you knew the truth, before it puts you into danger.
"You're not actually a human, Eilidh. I'm sorry. That's going to be hard for you to digest, and I know you were having trouble getting to grips with the fact that I wasn't. To hear that you're not what you thought you were is even worse, but it's better than living a lie, isn't it? You're not a human. You're actually a fairy, one of us. A changeling.
"Your parents had a daughter, who is still alive. She doesn't live in this world, though, not exactly. She's safe in the Otherworld and I hope that's where she'll stay for a good long time. When you were two days old we swapped the babies. Fortunately, you looked rather alike and your parents didn't notice a difference, for we put a glamour on you. By the time it wore off they wouldn't have noticed anything.
"When you were five years old we started to keep a watch on you. It's about that age that any unusual powers might appear, but there was nothing, which is unusual with your kind. So we waited a few more years. Still nothing. Then there was the fact that you were so desperate to drive, yet so terrified when the time came - most unusual. Sprites usually hate technology and metal and anything so potently human, but they love danger and wouldn't be frightened of anything. We began to get suspicious.
"I had arranged for Jon to be your instructor as he knows what he's doing. He's one of us, too. He's what we call a 'scout' - basically, he keeps an eye on the changelings we're monitoring and makes sure that no one hurts them, because if there's one thing we can't stand about humans it's the way they hurt things that are different, just because they're afraid or because they don't like them.
"You were almost within our grasp. Jon managed to get you here. You're in my living room, the home of one of the most influential Fae in goodness knows how many years. And I want to test something."
"Test what?" I asked. I wasn't interrupting, I really wasn't. He'd paused and was looking at me, waiting for a reaction, but I'd filed away my feelings so carefully that I didn't show a thing. Later, when he wasn't there, I'd yell at someone and smash my fists into the wall, but I didn't want to do that now. It was like giving in.
"I want to take off the deeper glamour, the one you've got on now. It's on all changelings from the moment they're born. It makes you look human. But I can only do it with your permission. May I?"

It might not be the sexiest pick of the litter, but the Quarterback battle I'm interested in seeing the most is with the Cleveland Browns and their battle between Colt McCoy(for now), Brandon Weeden and Seneca Wallace. After drafting Weeden with the 22nd pick of the 2012 NFL Draft, word around the league was that the Browns would be shopping McCoy. It looks like they're going to have to wait until another team has a QB go down to injury before they're able to unload him. So for now, it's a 3-way battle.
Weeden should come in as the favorite after McCoy lost the starting job to Wallace at the end of last season. Wallace wasn't able to do much with the QB reigns as he went 0 and 4 with a completion percentage of 51.4. At age 28, Weeden isn't the typical kind of rookie. With the Browns giving up a first round pick to draft him, they must believe that he'll be able to start either this year or next year. It may just be Weeden's job to loose. After a couple pre-season games we'll see if he's ready to start in the NFL...

Itar-Tass news agency said Mr Ter Petrosian invoked a collective security pact signed in May by six members of the Commonwealth of Independent States. It obliges each to help the rest if attacked.
Mr Ter Petrosian, in a telegram to leaders of the other five states, said: 'Aggression has been committed against a state which is a member of the CIS and the system of collective security.'
He called on the heads of state to 'fulfil their obligations before the Republic of Armenia by using political, military or other methods to prevent a war'.
The appeal, the first time a member state has invoked the security treaty, was prompted by major military gains by Azerbaijan in the four-year conflict between the two former Soviet republics. More than 2,000 people have died in the fighting.
Reports from both sides said Azeri forces had captured Artsvashen, a pocket of Armenian territory within western Azerbaijan. Azeri reports said the armed forces had 'liberated' the town, destroying enemy tanks and weaponry and killing 300 Armenian brigands. Armenian reports mentioned no dead but said 29 people were missing without trace.
Mr Ter Petrosian's telegram described the attack on Artsvashen and the alleged Azeri bombing of Armenian territory as 'the beginning of undeclared war'.
The conflict between Christian Armenia and Muslim Azerbaijan is the deadliest of the many ethnic disputes left behind by the collapse of the Soviet Union. Frequent peace missions have ended in deadlock, and members of the Commonwealth of Independent States are unlikely to greet the Armenian request with much enthusiasm.
Six CIS members, Russia, Armenia and four central Asian republics, created the defence union last May at a summit in the Uzbek capital of Tashkent. Azerbaijan refused to join.
Armenia and Russia have discussed deploying CIS or international peace-keeping troops to halt the fighting, which has spread from the small disputed enclave of Nagorny Karabakh to engulf border regions as well. Azerbaijan has resisted the peace-keeping proposal as threatened interference.
