Very often mud mask caused too tightened feeling but this product is exceptionally good. Purified and being silky.
Yes, I recommend this product.
By Chasity Landry | January 16th, 2017
I have struggled with acne prone skin and this mask is absolutely amazing. Within two days of use I saw a drastic change in my skin (even though you are suppose to use it once a week). Regardless I love it and it works!
Yes, I recommend this product.
By Cristina Spadafino| October 17th, 2016
I have been searching for a mud mask for some time and have found it! I love the properties of the muds at the Red Sea so to have it in a jar, wonderful! The first time you use it, it may be overpowering so be prepared. I use this once a week to keep my pores in check. LOVE!
Yes, I recommend this product.
By Vivian Kaiser| April 17th, 2016
I never review products, but I can't express enough how amazing this is. I use it once a week and whenever I use it I have the softest skin ever. I have extremely sensitive skin yet it doesn't cause breakouts or dry skin. Completely natural and I love it
Yes, I recommend this product.
By Akahaya| October 12th, 2015
I was apprehensive when I bought it coz I have very sensitive skin.. But it's undoubtedly an amazing product.. Minimises pores, reinstates the moisture in the skin and made my skin so soft.. It also lightened my blemishes in just a few rounds.. I use it once a week..
By V Mateo| September 21st, 2015
It's been a while since I've used this since I'm short of money at the moment but I've known this product for like 2 years or so and it was completely gentle on my skin. My skin was enviably clean but now I break out a lot so I'm def' getting it back. Highly recommend it.
Yes, I recommend this product.
By Jason David| July 01st, 2015
When it comes to my skin, especially my face, I am very picky regarding what I use, and I never skimp money wise. This made the cut to be included in my stockpile of 30 or so skincare products. Let me start by saying, this product is amazing. Just this past winter, my skin had to endure record breaking cold days, and in March I moved to Las Vegas with record breaking heat. My skin being super sensitive, and having skin problems, the extreme temperatures do a number of my skin. When I first applied the product to my face, it burned like many reviewers stated, however, it only lasted a minute or so. It has a super silky feel, and smells great. After the burning, it actually started soothing my face, and that's one of the reasons I love it so much. When it came to rinsing it off, I found supple skin beneath, and my skin was smoother where it normally is rough due to eczema. I'm also surprised how many face masks you actually get out of the jar, thus making it a phenomenal value. I would definitely recommend it to anyone!
By Maddy | August 04th, 2013
I love this mask, I have very sensitive skin and was worried about buying this but it turned out great! It makes my skin feel very soft and refreshing and it is also very helpful for pimples!
By Tracey| June 27th, 2013
This mask is goooooood. You definitely want to try. First I was worrying about the irritation for the first time use like other reviewer said, but it turned out to be amazing. Will recommend to my friends.
By Jennifer| January 31st, 2013
I love this mask! I have very dry skin in the winter and this mask pulls all the bad impurities out of my face leaving it moisturized and soft. My skin was so dry and irritated the first time I use it the mask burned but now it doesn't burn and I am able to leave it on until it dries completely (15mins). My face is refreshed after using. Great buy
By Lisa| January 23rd, 2013
I love the Sabon mud mask. I have oily/acne prone skin and it makes my skin feel wonderful. It has also helped with the oiliness. I use it twice a week. Smells wonderful. I wish that they made a lotion that smelled like the mud mask. Definitely one of my Sabon favorites!
By Ashley| January 06th, 2013
I used the mask once...I left it on for about 20 minutes then rinsed it off. It did burn a little when I first put it on but it went away. After rinsing my face was so smooth I couldn't believe it was still my face. Then I used the face polisher right after and it was like I got a whole new face. Amazing. To the person that said this product caused them to break out: the lady at the store told me that the mask brings all your pimples to the surface of your skin and not to use it before a big event or anything. So maybe that's what it did? I'm not sure, but I love this product
By Ratri| January 03rd, 2013
It smells wonderful to begin with, it kinda burned my skin just a little bit when I applied it, but I thought that only because my skin was so dry and it was trying to do its job. And it did! After rinse I was left with soft skin face and just can't help but touching it!
By Christina| January 01st, 2013
It's the best mask I've ever used!Leaves the skin increadibly soft.In combination with the polisher before the mask and the moisturizer after, the skin is smooth,refreshed and cleaner than ever!Highly recommended for pampering ourselves at least once a week!
By Alexa| December 27th, 2012
This mask smells great and works very well. It didn't dry my face out, but it also addressed my oily/ combination skin very nicely. I was very impressed.
By Elise| December 20th, 2012
Absolutely love this product!!! been using it for a while now and I'm addicted! I've used several masks from different companies and this one leaves my skin looking so healthy and takes care of "imperfections" in my skin. I highly recommend it.
By lexy| December 13th, 2012
It was just like the lady at the store described it, it worked so well and by the 4 use i don't even have to wear base makeup. It is a God sent... THANK YOU SABON
By Kermit| December 11th, 2012
Don't let this comment discourage you from buying this product. For the majority, consumers seem to really enjoy the results of this product. But this mud mask has given me more breakouts than what I already started with. I really don't understand what I am doing wrong. I apply a decent amount to my face, once every week, and wait until it dries. I then wash it off and dry my face. What I began to notice, once I began this treatment, was new breakouts emerging. Perhaps I am allergic to something in it- I don't know. For now, I have stopped using it and I am trying a different method. I will use it once more, after my face gets a bit clearer, and if I get the same results, then there's obviously a problem.
By Shilo| August 11th, 2012
This mud mask is by far the best mud mask product I have ever used! It's fresh, natural, and smells amazing on! And most mud masks usually take up to 10 minutes to dry and take off, but with this product it only takes 5 minutes and less, which is amazing when you're on the go! The feeling afterwards is beyond words, rejuvenating, refreshing, and moisturizing all in one! I recommend this product for everyone, dry, oily, or combination skin. 5 stars all the way!
By Kirsten | June 05th, 2012
Seriously, once again, Sabon never let me down! I used this product once so far ( just bought it) and it smells AMAZING and took all the dry skin off my face and I seriously felt like it was a car wash for my pores! Def recommend. Who wouldn't? ( great products at an AMAZING price)
By Jennifer| May 28th, 2012
This is the first product I used from Sabon and I am thoroughly happy with it. I love the smell and the feel of it. I have never experienced a mask quite like this one. After this I also bought tons of other things form Sabon and am pretty addicted now. Very awesome and natural. The mask immediately only after one use cleans your skin so deeply and you will notice a different and vibrant complexion afterwards. LOVE IT!
By Hailey| May 02nd, 2012
This is the best mud mask ever !!! I love the smell and I actually feel an improvement on my skin every time I use it. I feel the mud clean my pores and my face seems less oily and I've never had such a clear face I hardly use make up anymore !
By Claire| April 30th, 2012
Miraculous doesn't even begin to describe the mud mask. I have tried everything to clear up my skin, and the mud mask really worked. The properties from the dead sea combined with the cooling effects of the mud work together to suck out the dirt and toxins from deep within the skin. I use it once weekly and it's just amazing. My skin has never looked better!
By Vicki| March 06th, 2012
This is the best mud mask... Better than the brand from Italy....the problem is every time I want to buy it, it's out of stock! Please bring more quantity...
By Kathryn| February 04th, 2012
This product is one of the best products Sabon sells. Every time I go in the store they are sold out because it is so popular. It's a little on the expensive side for a face wash, but I can assure you that you are definitely getting your money's worth on this product. IT WORKS LIKE A DREAM! I swear by Sabon's products!
By Jane| November 15th, 2011
First of all. Best aromatherapy mask ever. Smells great, makes my skin feel great, and LOOK great. Dare I say... this is a holy grail item for me? This stuff really gets all nasties from my pores. If you haven't used a mask in a while or ever. This stuff will scare the hell out of you when you first use it. AHHHH! LOVE!
Please wait...
Please wait...

How to Find the Right People to Network With
October 26, 2012
By Heather Huhman,
The importance of networking is ingrained in the brains of both college students and young professionals. From the first lecture on your future profession, advisors, professors, and alumni begin to gently hint that
connections will be the most important influence in
landing a job
. Sounds pretty simple, right? Not necessarily.
Although you know networking is crucial to
job search
success, how do you know which networking connections are the right ones to help your career.
Simply searching
job boards
and sending resumes isn't going to seal the deal. Knowing the right people will allow you to work smarter – not harder – to build your professional network. Transform your networking opportunities by identifying the most beneficial networking prospects:
1. Develop a strategy.
While new networking prospects can spring up around every corner, it's best to research and identify the type of people you want in your network. More than likely these will not be the CEOs or human resources managers.
Building a networking relationship with a person who has reached the level of success you aspire to have and designate them as your mentor. This networking relationship will allow you to learn from their success as well as their mistakes. The mentor in your network will offer important wisdom and experiences that help you develop a unique perspective on the job industry. This person will also be able to watch you evolve throughout your career. Some of the best mentors are your very own college alumni.
Identify an industry-insider who has an expert level of information. Staying informed on the latest information within your field is another successful measure when developing professional relationships. Bounce your ideas and goals off of this person to get a good feel as to what's happening and what the next big thing is.
Connecting with the key types of people that will give your network important aspects involves finding the perfect places to develop connections both online and offline. Attending networking seminars, conferences, alumni events, industry association meetings and speeches are all great ways to meet people. Although, it takes a lot more than just handing out business cards. Gather insight into which industry professionals will be attending and make a point to reach out to the people whose current jobs and companies interest you the most.
When it comes to meeting people in an online setting, look to social media websites like LinkedIn and Twitter, where finding key influencers is simplified. Other networking opportunities can be found online by reading industry websites and blogs, online seminars and interacting on forums. This will increase the scope of your network and also allow you to see how other people are building their networks in your career field.
2. Identify specific networking prospects.
After identifying the key types of people you would like in your network, it's time to create a list of specific contacts. Networking isn't about reaching the highest person in the company, it's about building a valuable relationship with the right person.
Whether it's someone you have followed for years on Twitter that happens to be a big-name insider within your industry or a blogger that has inspired you professionally, narrow down your list of networking individuals to get to the people who matter most.
3. Establish a plan for building a mutually beneficial relationship.
Once you have identified the specific prospects to build your network, be more than just a Twitter handle or an email address. Don't rule out online networking completely, but if the opportunity arises, go the extra mile by inviting to take someone to coffee and learn more about their job experiences.
Being visible and having meaningful conversations around industry-related topics will help you develop a more engaged network. Networking is about two-way communication and gaining valuable and personal insight into a career field. Don't skimp on taking steps to building strong relationships with the individuals in your network.
Smart networking takes research, strategy and visibility. Seeking out individuals to ask for career advice versus asking to be hired is a key step in networking overall. It's important to always remember that networking is the act of building two-way, mutually beneficial relationships. Don't wait until you're unemployed to begin the search for the right networking prospects.

President Proposes to Restore Civil Legal Aid Funding, But More Is Needed
February 13, 2012
The Budget released by the President on Monday recommends a budget level of $402 million, a $54 million increase over FY 2012, for the Legal Services Corporation (LSC). This increase would be targeted solely toward direct funds to civil legal aid programs and would fully restore the funding that was cut from those programs in 2012. This is a positive step forward.
Civil legal aid programs help low-income people and supportive groups navigate various civil matters like housing evictions, home foreclosures, predatory lending, child support, custody, domestic violence. They also help people access government benefits like Social Security, disability, unemployment insurance, food stamps, and health insurance. Without the services of a lawyer, low-income people with civil-legal problems may have no practical way of protecting their rights and advancing their interests.
Since coming into office, President Obama has supported increases in LSC funding. He has also supported eliminating some of the onerous restrictions imposed on LSC programs in 1996. The 2012 Budget also recommends eliminating the restriction prohibiting civil legal aid programs funded by LSC from bringing or participating in class action suits.
The restoration of funding for civil legal aid programs would help preventing further erosion of access to justice for low-income persons needing civil legal aid. Since 2011, LSC funded programs have reduced attorneys by 13.3 percent, paralegals by 15.4 percent and administrative staff by 12.7 percent. Programs will likely close 24 offices in 2012, many of them in rural areas. As a result, the LSC-funded civil legal aid program will serve 81,000 fewer low-income Americans. These reductions come at a time when there is a substantial increase in those eligible for civil legal aid and an increase in such critical problems as housing foreclosure, unemployment, domestic violence and issues facing military Veterans.
Restoration of LSC funding from the 2011 level is not nearly enough. Civil legal aid programs turned away at least as many clients that they served in 2011 and will turn away even more in 2012. Funding over time for the program continues to erode. In fact, if funding today were at the same level as in 1980 (in inflation-adjusted dollar), it would be $800 million, nearly double the $402 million the president has proposed for FY 2013.
Access to justice for those who cannot afford legal assistance is an essential right in a modern industrial country. As Congress declared when it created LSC in the Legal Services Corporation Act of 1974: "providing legal assistance to those who face an economic barrier to adequate legal counsel will serve the best ends of justice and assist in improving opportunities for low-income person" and will "reaffirm faith in our government of laws."

George Clooney Has "Words" for Gwyneth Paltrow
Best friends, George Clooney and Julia Roberts were recently doing an interview with Vanity Fair when George had some words for Gwyneth Paltrow!
For those who don't know, Gwyneth is a very love/hated actress around the industry. We don't quite know why though! We love her as Pepper Potts in Iron Man
But recently, Vanity Fair contributing editor Vanessa Grigoriadis, was told by Editor in Chief, Graydon Carter to investigate and explore Gwenyth. Well turns out the essay did just that, and it didn't please the actress at all. Gwenyth called the editor and went off on him!
We think George and Julia they were just playing around. But during an interview for Vanity Fair's Hollywood edition, the two actors made a dig at Paltrow's rivalry with the magazine.
They were asked what it was like to be on the cover of famed issue, and Roberts replied "It's cool!"
George added, "It's very exciting. I think it's going to be fun. That's what Gwyneth Paltrow told me to say." And both laughed off the joke!
Check out a behind-the-scenes look at the cover with George, Julia and more!

60 fight is impressive but why cant he b found on boxrec
They call me Tel. But its Mr. Tel to you!
I know a George Greenslade (63.5kg) who boxes in the Queensbury semi pro league but no pros. He certainly hasnt actually competed at pro if he is even licensed or he would be on Box Rec.
Andy Lillis, Former Cagewarriors President
Fucking hell!! What is it that u people have to constantly slag fighters off!! Give the kid a break, he has fought some decent fighters, he's beat guys twice his age, bigger than him, knocked people out, submitted guys!! He's stopped every one of his fights bar 1 which he won on decision!! This kid is gonna do well at pro and hes gonna beat Danny!! Gud luck Connor lad
Are you sure he has 'stopped everyone of his fights bar 1 which he won on decision'...
I dont think anyone is being negative about its more that there is no rush for him to go Pro, he is obviously a talent but maybe not yet ready.
Constructive advice isnt slagging
Andy Lillis, Former Cagewarriors President
he's beat guys twice his age
What does this have to do with anything? Surely time on the mats counts for more?
bigger than him
Are you sure? shouldnt every fighter be weighing in at the agreed limit before hand?
He's stopped every one of his fights bar 1 which he won on decision!!
Are you sure? I have a vague memory of him fighting Scott gregory at AFC?
I dont think anyone has slagged him off, as stated, he is obviously a talented kid. But for me, there is now rush for him to go pro. Despite the number of fights he's had at present.
But Sean and his team have been around and if they think he's ready then fair play to them. Obviously he see's him day in day out in training and believes in him.
The Pro game is a tough world to be finding out though.
You can't put a limit on anything. The more you dream, the farther you get

It's more the fact that they're willing to blurt their fetishes out to the world that I find odd.
That Powerjack is awful small looking though.
Ghost Pyro, or Candlejack Pyro, w/e.
somehow i think it wont though, seems like it would clip with many pyro hats/misc's
i promise i won't use it honest
Tried my hand at creating a fake DoF effect in Photoshop just using Gaussian blur.
With Depth of Field:
Looks good or no?
TF2 doesn't look good with any blurs.
So i usually talk around on my friends list about frag movies and some people like them and its fun to talk about frag vids. But some people HATE them for no reason at all.
I know one person here who shall remain anonymous until he or she admits it, hates frag videos even if it has good music, good edits ( not over edits ) and good kills. The conversation went something like this:
Its like they lost a fight and they still go with their "fact" that all frag vids are stupid.
I mean, some people do have shit music, some people do have shitty edits and filterrape, but that doesnt mean all of them are.
Me and a few other people on here just think its fucking amazing people can do this.
sIN is one of the best editors I know, hes just a boss at editing and at tf2.
Oh and dont give this shit "tf2 isnt meant for competitive play"
TF2 is meant for fun, its a game, its like saying Chess isnt meant for Competitive play.
Some people want a challenge, so they want to play with people across the world to fill that excitement.
So my question to you facepunch is, do you like Tf2 frag vids and explain why.
I was going to make a comment about the horrible pinkie pyro but then I took 4-5 minutes to make this for y'all, 6 colours.
Show me a 10 minute match of one person's playing where they're doing the same stuff, then I'm impressed.
I like frag vids, but no so much for the footage but the editing.
I didn't say I liked the ones with filter rape.
I meant well edited ones, with the footage actually synced with music, like this:
Jesus christ his aim with those rockets is amazing
The animation is really WIP, I just wanted to test the camera animation in 3ds Max, good lighting and blur. This is my first camera animation feedback please.
I just released it, actually:
Fov is too high, movement has a weird jerk to it
But above all else, what I would recommend as a rule of thumb:
Always finish the WHOLE animation, then you do the camera work.
You're inspiring and helping me
Other than that, great job. You really get the feeling of the cold with the hats and miscs you added, plus that slight blue overlay.

It would be difficult to find a nicer guy in boxing than Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero. Being nice does not exclude someone from making a bone-headed move, however, and Guerrero recently did just that.
A week ago Thursday, March 28, Guerrero walked up to the ticket counter at JFK Airport in Queens, N.Y. He informed a person there he was in possession of an unloaded gun and unloaded magazines. Cops were notified, Guerrero was arrested and subsequently charged with criminal gun possession.
Now, this devout Christian who would never hurt anyone outside of the ring, has to prepare for the biggest bout of his career - May 4 against welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. at MGM Grand in Las Vegas (on Showtime pay-per-view) - knowing he could go to jail later this year.
Taking an arrest of this kind in New York is no joke.
"You cannot bring an unlicensed weapon - loaded or unloaded - into this county or this city," Queens district attorney Richard A. Brown said in a statement. "And if you do you will be arrested and face felony charges."
Guerrero could face as much as four years in prison, though it's unlikely his punishment would be that harsh if convicted.
The Gilroy resident is not talking about the incident yet. But his promoter, Richard Schaefer, spoke to this newspaper about it. Schaefer, CEO of Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions, insisted he is not concerned about Guerrero's psyche.
"I talked to him when he was released from custody and I had a very nice conversation with him," Schaefer said. "And he, I think, is in a very good place mentally. He lives a positive life, is surrounded by good people."
True, but one has to wonder just how much Guerrero being a solid citizen is going to matter when it comes time to face the music sometime after the bout with Mayweather.
Schaefer laid out the extenuating circumstances. The gun and magazines were empty, the gun was locked in a safe in Guerrero's luggage, and he pointed it out to airport personnel.
"This is not the action of of a guy who is trying to do something sneaky, something illegal," Schaefer said.Simply, Schaefer said, Guerrero just did not know that different states have different gun laws. Guerrero's gun is apparently licensed in California, but that does not cut any ice in the Big Apple.
"And so you can't be upset, you can't be disappointed because of something like that because he didn't do something knowingly illegal," Schaefer said, when asked if he is peeved at Guerrero.
That's all well and good. But Guerrero's problem is with New York, not Schaefer. And right about now, Mayweather is probably licking his chops.
A lot has been made of the talent of super welterweight champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez of Mexico. The red-head whose nickname means "Cinnamon," is just 22 but has already made five title defenses and his treated like a rock star in his homeland.
None of his opponents have been as good as Austin Trout, however. The two will square off in a title unification bout April 20 at the Alamodome in San Antonio (on Showtime). According to his promoter, Oscar De La Hoya, Alvarez (41-0-1, 30 KOs) needs a victory in this bout to fully establish himself as a potential superstar.
"This reminds me of when I beat Ike Quartey," De La Hoya said of his split-decision victory over Quartey in a welterweight title unification bout in February 1999 in Las Vegas. "Although I did have all the admirers and the fans, I needed that one win to solidify me as a great champion.
"This is his one moment, but he has his work cut out for him. Austin Trout is the real deal."
Trout, 27, of Las Cruces, N.M., is indeed a formidable foe. He's 26-0 with 14 knockouts and he's left-handed. Ironically, he beat Alvarez's older brother, Rigoberto, to win his title in February 2011; he has made four defenses.
"After I win this fight," Alvarez said Thursday, "I'm going to get that belt and give it to my brother."
If ever there was a fight not to miss, it's next Saturday's super bantamweight title unification bout between Nonito Donaire and Guillermo Rigondeaux at Radio City Music Hall in New York City (on HBO). This has Fight of the Year written all over it. Donaire, of San Leandro via the Philippines, is 31-1 with 20 knockouts. Rigondeaux, a gold-medal winner for Cuba in the 2000 and 2004 Olympic Games, is 11-0 with eight knockouts. He defected from Cuba in 2007 and lives in Miami. ... Another two-time gold-medal winner, flyweight Zou Shiming of China, makes his pro debut tonight against Eleazar Valenzuela (2-1-2, 1 KO) of Mexico at Venetian Casino & Resort in Macao, China (on HBO2). Also on that card, Roman "Rocky" Martinez (26-1-2, 16 KOs) of Puerto Rico defends his junior lightweight belt against Diego Magdaleno (23-0, 9 KOs) of Las Vegas. ... Sergio Martinez (50-2-2, 28 KOs) of Argentina defends his middleweight title against Martin Murray (25-0-1, 11 KOs) of England on April 27 in Martinez's native Argentina (on HBO).

Bill Mackey, RA, and his wife, Rachel Yaseen, are true urbanists. The Tucson, Ariz., residents don't own a car, preferring instead to walk or to get around on bicycles or via a golf cart—which, apparently, is street-legal there. It's no shock, then, that when the couple were in the market for a new house a few years ago, they bought an old bungalow in the heart of downtown. "A central location was really important to us," says Mackey, who works as a project manager for Rob Paulus Architect when he isn't moonlighting for his firm, worker inc. "We needed the house to be close to all the services we use."
With a baby on the way, Mackey and Yaseen also needed more from the 808-square-foot, circa 1927 house than it had to give. Among other changes, they wanted to incorporate a strong outdoor component and extend the house in a way that would provide shade from the heat, which can easily hit triple digits in the summer months. But expanding the existing one-bedroom, one-bath structure—whose style Mackey describes as "California Mission Revival"—was tricky. A central challenge, he explains, was the property's "odd-shaped" lot, which "runs along an alleyway and measures 200 feet long by about 32 feet wide."
Mackey left the front of the house intact but unified the main spaces containing the kitchen, living room, and dining room; converted the bedroom into a library; and relocated the bath nearby. He saved the major moves for the rear, where he razed a small studio/garage to make way for extended private areas, including a studio for Yaseen, who teaches yoga. He tucked the addition along the south end of the property and used deep overhangs, "so the building shades the north side of the site," he says.
"The driving goal of the design was to make the interior spaces as small as we could, so we'd have enough outdoor area left over," Mackey explains. Large operable windows and doors bring in light and provide visual access to the courtyard, covered patio, porch, and fire pit. "Every door opens up to a window," he says. Pebbles and smooth stones of varying sizes delineate walkable paths from non-walkable areas, and large boulders serve as seating and climbing objects for the couple's son, Wexler, now 3 years old.
Yaseen, who handled most of the outdoor decisions, softened the site's hard edges with strategically placed potted cacti, bamboo, and flowering plants, such as yucca and orange jubilee. The whole south face comprises plants "that grow up in the summer and provide protection from the sun," Mackey says.
All in all, the spacious, light-filled addition Mackey designed and the climate-specific landscape his wife conceived create a desert oasis that rivals the allure of their downtown pastimes.
single speed
When Bill Mackey says "My life is crazy," it's no exaggeration. The architect, artist, and illustrator designed the renovation of his home entirely by hand in the spare moments when his son was napping in the old studio/garage out back. If that weren't enough, he's also a co-founder of design co*op, a Tucson, Ariz.-based collective of local artists, writers, designers, and architects whose main goal is "to educate the public on the idea that the design of the built environment can improve quality of life," Mackey says.
Group members provide architectural services to Tucson's Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) in exchange for studio space, but they also have lectured, done pro bono work, and participated in community outreach programs helping schoolchildren with public art projects. "It's a delicate balance" trying to do all of these things, acknowledges Mackey, whose artwork includes pastels (oil on found wood), collages, and digital overlays on maps.
He'll need that balance even more next year, when he becomes MOCA's Architect-in-Residence. In that role he'll assist with any architecture-related issues that arise.

The Things a Brother Knows
Reading Level: Grade 7-9
Boaz Katznelson was a great athlete, talented student and all round high school golden boy. He was accepted to Cornell, Berkley, Tufts and Columbia Universities. His family was stunned when he announced he wasn't going to college, he was enlisting in the Marines. Soon Boaz was overseas…after a few months, he stopped writing home. When Boaz finally came home, he walked straight upstairs and shut the door. He hasn't been out in three weeks. Levi and his parents have waited three long years for Boaz's return. But he is no longer the brother Levi thought he knew. Even if nobody else wants to see it, Levi knows something is seriously wrong.
When Boaz announces he's off to hike the Appalachian Trail, Levi knows he's lying. So Levi follows, hoping to figure out how to save the brother he once adored.

One out of every 11 Americans age 50 and older risks going hungry every single day. The federal government's former food stamp program, now called SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program), can help. Yet just one-third of Americans 60 and over who qualify get help. Many are embarrassed to ask for help. Others don't know SNAP exists. And too many fear the bureaucracy itself, convinced that the time and effort it takes to apply aren't worth any benefits they would receive.
The hunger problem is particularly pervasive in the South, and Georgia is no exception. Among Georgians 50 and over whose annual income is under $22,000, 25 percent are threatened by hunger. Last fall, AARP Foundation and AARP Georgia decided to get the word out about SNAP in the Peach State, setting up a toll-free number people could call for SNAP information and application assistance. More than 75 AARP members volunteered to help.
To alert people, the Foundation and AARP GA put ads in community newspapers, church bulletins, and on radio stations. The message: You shouldn't have to choose what's more important, food or medicine. Call to learn how SNAP benefits could help you or someone you care about.
So far, more than 1,300 people 50 and over have called, and 75 percent have been found to be eligible for SNAP. In fact, to keep the phone lines from crashing, volunteers set up special SNAP events to help people in person.
One Octogenarian's Story
One of the hundreds the program has helped is Rose Harris, 82, of Roswell. Here's her story:
Rose never thought she'd have to ask for help buying food. She'd worked hard for many years to support herself, even taking on a second job when her husband left her in 1985. She retired in 1993, downsized to a two-bedroom condo and earned some money renting her extra bedroom to foreign students attending a nearby English language school. Rose figured she was set for life.
But then the school moved to the other side of town, no public transportation was available and the students stopped coming. Next, her first job's pension ended. Last October, her 401(k) from her second job ran out. All Rose had left was $662 in monthly Social Security benefits. After she paid her supplemental Medicare insurance and condo fees, she had $160 a month left.
Next: An AARP Foundation SNAP specialist helps Rose. >>

This five-day hands on course provides participants with an opportunity to learn best practices for analyzing malicious code. In addition to classroom instruction and hands-on exercises, attendees will be given real-world malicious code samples to dissect. Participants will acquire a fundamental understanding of a variety of malware analysis tools and techniques which can directly support their organization's incident response efforts and increase performance in their functional role(s).
Participants will initially be introduced to the common terms used in the malware community and how those have evolved over the past few years. The focus will be on preparing participants to communicate effectively with peers and others in the security community, when discussing malware. Exercises will include analyzing public malware reports, installing a rootkit and performing surface analysis of a well-known piece of malware.
The second day of the course will focus on the programming aspects of malware and how commonly used APIs and cryptographic routines can be recognized. Students will write basic programs using the Windows API to become familiar with the common functionality utilized by malicious code authors. Additionally the basics of assembly language programming will be reviewed, to lay the foundation for debugging and reverse engineering work.
The third day of the course will be devoted to run-time or dynamic analysis. Initially students will learn how to create a secure and trusted environment for performing analysis. Hands-on exercises will then give attendees the opportunity to develop a familiarity with the common monitoring tools that are available for the Windows platform and perform their own run-time analysis on malware samples from the wild.
The fourth day will introduce students to using a debugger to understand malware. Not only does a debugger enable fine-grained analysis and control over a piece of malware, it is often an essential tool for dealing with compressed or packed code. Participants will be challenged to unpack various malware samples during the lab portion of the day.
The fifth and final day will cover advanced static reverse engineering techniques, often required for tasks such as uncovering hidden functionality in a piece of malware.

As a part of our mission to promote the interests of victims' families and to increase awareness of the issues they face, Families of September 11 (FOS11) has recently written an open letter to schools. FOS11 has contacted our nation's leading educators, including the commissioners and superintendents of each state's Department of Education, to remind them that it is the responsibility of schools, teachers, counselors and other officials to act in the best interests of children, both those who are openly suffering from the effects of 9/11 and those who may be suffering in silence.
As a part of our mission to promote the interests of victims' families and to increase awareness of the issues they face, FOS11 has encouraged schools to: 1) support sensitivity training programs to assist teachers and counselors; 2) partner with parents and caregivers in decisions about school curriculum that pertains to 9/11; and 3) limit the exposure of children to violent images of 9/11 in the classroom. We encourage our members to share this letter with their children's schools, teachers, counselors, PTA groups and other family members and to visit our recently launched Children of September 11 webpage.
Read the FOS11 Open Letter to Schools.
Additionally, in light of the recent events in Russia FOS11 has issued a Statement urging schools to share safety and preparedness plans with parents and caregivers.

National job shadowing program aims to connect student designers with professional mentors for one day in November
WASHINGTON—RealWorld DesignWeek, the annual nationwide mentoring program created by the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID), is scheduled to take place November 6-12, 2011.
RealWorld DesignWeek is the first national program aimed at educating future interior designers through in-person experience. The program is open to all members, free of charge, and pairs ASID student members with interior design professionals and ASID Industry Partners.
More than 1,000 ASID members participated in the nationwide interior design mentoring program in 2010. Michelle Beamer, Allied Member ASID, principal of MB Interiors, praised the program for its hands-on approach.
"I loved the idea of giving back to the design community by hosting a student for a day, but I never imagined how much I would learn in the process," says Beamer. "Seeing design through someone else's eyes energized me and gave me new ideas."
ASID member companies and individuals can visit www.asid.org/rwdw to sign up to host a student for one day in November. Examples of RealWorld DesignWeek activities include:

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the Secretary of the Interior shall prepare a roll of all persons who meet the following requirements for eligibility: (a) They were born on or prior to and living on the date of this Act; (b) their name or the name of a lineal ancestor appears on the Delaware Indian per capita payroll approved by the Secretary on April 20, 1906, or (c) their name or the name of a lineal ancestor is on or is eligible to be on the constructed base census roll as of 1940 of the Absentee Delaware Tribe of Western Oklahoma, approved by the Secretary of the Interior, or (d) they are lineal descendants of Delaware Indians who were members of the Delaware Nation of Indians as constituted at the time of the Treaty of October 3, 1818 (7 Stat. 188), and their name or the name of a lineal ancestor appears on any available census roll or any other records acceptable to the Secretary. No person shall be eligible to be enrolled under this section who is not a citizen of the United States.

All applications filed shall be reviewed and a judgment of the eligibility of each applicant will be made and recommendation given in writing to the respective area directors by a committee composed of representatives of the two Oklahoma Delaware groups prior to submission of names to the Secretary of the Interior for acceptance on the distribution roll. The determination of the Secretary regarding the utilization of available rolls or records and the eligibility for enrollment of an applicant shall be final.
There shall be withdrawn from the funds on deposit in the Treasury of the United States to the credit of the Delaware Nation that were appropriated by the Act of October 7, 1964 (78 Stat. 1033), and the interest accrued thereon, using the interest fund first, $7,000, which shall be divided equally between the Cherokee Delawares and the Delaware Tribe of Indians of Western Oklahoma, and shall be available for claims expenses incurred by the duly authorized personnel of the two tribal groups, as set forth in their joint resolution numbered 4-68 adopted on September 9, 1967.
After the deduction of attorney fees and expenses, litigation expenses, all costs incident to the provisions of this Act, and to making the payments authorized by this Act, including the cost of roll preparation, which shall be paid by appropriate withdrawals from the judgment fund, the unexpended balance of the funds on deposit in the Treasury shall be distributed in equal shares to those persons whose names appear on the roll prepared in accordance with section 1 of this Act. No person shall be entitled to more than one per capita share of the funds.
The Secretary shall distribute a share payable to a living enrollee directly to such enrollee. The Secretary shall distribute the per capita share of a deceased enrollee to his heirs or legatees upon proof of death and inheritance satisfactory to the Secretary whose findings upon such proof shall be final and conclusive. Sums payable to enrollees or their heirs or legatees who are less than twenty-one years of age or who are under a legal disability shall be paid in accordance with such procedures as the Secretary determines will best protect their interests.
The funds distributed under the provisions of this Act shall not be subject to Federal or State income tax.

A typical freshman athlete is just hoping to make a high school team.
If all goes well, there could be some playing time at the sophomore level or perhaps a few starts on the junior varsity team.
Getting any playing time on the varsity level is out of the question for most high school freshmen.
Not for Taylorsville's Jaycie LeBaron.
She not only played varsity as a freshman, she won 18 games for one of the top Class 5A softball programs in the state.
Needless to say, she's one of the state's top rising talents.
"She's done really well for us," Taylorsville coach Rich Kaelin said. "She knows she needs to work on her stamina. You live and die by your pitching, and I think that's what's been happening with us. She is still a sophomore, so she still has her ups and downs. The biggest thing was she was our only girl last year. This year we have four freshmen, so we haven't had to rely only on her. For instance, in the Syracuse game, she came in and got the save and did a nice job."
LeBaron may have help, but she's still getting the bulk of the work. Taylorsville is 6-6 entering the week, and she's 4-3 so far. She now has 22 career wins, and region play hasn't even started.
"I try to keep batters off-balance," LeBaron said. "If they're swinging ahead of the ball, I will use my changeup. I love my changeup. I'm confident when I throw it. I also have a drop ball a rise and a curveball that I can throw."
It's quite a repertoire for someone one says she never had a pitching coach until she met former BYU pitcher Paige Affleck at a clinic. Affleck began working with her to get more zip on her fastball and to throw her offspeed pitches for strikes.
"I started working with Paige last spring, and she helped me so much," LeBaron said. "She helped me with my rotations and my push off."
The results were an 18-6 record as a freshman and a force to be reckoned with for the next three years.
"As a freshman, I was kind of scared going into it, but my teammates helped me a lot," LeBaron said. "They were really supportive of everything. They wouldn't point out my negatives, only my positives. We have a pretty young team this year, but I think we should do really well this season. We have a great bunch of girls, and I'm excited to see where we will go."

A9 TV; October 10th, 2011
We offered the Trust to the heavens, the earth and the mountains but they refused to take it on and shrank from it. But man took it on. He is indeed wrongdoing and ignorant. (Surat al-Ahzab, 72)
He will eliminate their cruel and ignorant aspects. People are prone to cruelty, to enormity. An ignorant man must equip himself with knowledge against ignorance. Allah also mentions the "ungratefulness".
Man is truly ungrateful. (Surat al-Hajj, 66)
Ungratefulness indeed renders a person very ugly, it takes away the beauty of a person. For instance, it takes away the beauty of a young girl. It takes away the reason. It puts a person into a horrible position. It sweeps away the joy and bliss. One must fiercely avoid being selfish, egoistic and ungrateful . One must be honest, reasonable and a good person. People force themselves to become abnormal. It is very difficult to be bad. Left to their own states of nature, people are normally beautiful. If a person speaks, addresses, expresses his love as he feels is right, everything will be all right. People become ungrateful or wicked through some deliberate effort. I go out and see that many people do not look at one another's'faces. One takes pains with it. Look at the faces of other people; what would you lose? Greet them. How nice! Say, "Salamun Alaikum." Go and get to know them; you will feel relived, it will be fine. Show your smiling face, it will make you feel relieved. No, under all circumstances he has to have a sullen face. I see that people are of this mindset. In response to a compliment, people show a mean attitude. This must change. That is why people shy away from one another. That is the case in every corner of the world. People do not talk to one another. They do not befriend one another. They do not love one another. They do not show trust, love and compassion. They disquiet one another. Then they become weary of life. What a pity! People open up with love. Think of a wheat kernel planted in soil; it grows as you give water. A little bit of heat and water makes it grow. That is also the case with people. People need love just like water and sun. They need friendship and trust. Once a person sees love, he becomes relieved and beautifies himself.
Surah Yusuf
Allah relates Prophet Joseph's (as) beautiful life and devotes an entire surah to it.
We have sent it down as an Arabic Qur'an so that hopefully you will use your intellect. (Surah Yusuf, 2)
This means that we will conceive, think and ponder Insha'Allah.
We tell you the best of stories in revealing this Qur'an to you, even though you were unaware of it before it came. (Surah Yusuf, 3)
"We tell you the best of stories"; notice that Almighty Allah says,"The best of stories".
"Even though you were unaware of it before it came." That is to say, Allah says that it is the news of the unknown.
When Yusuf (Joseph) told his father, 'Father! I saw eleven bright stars, and the sun and moon as well. I saw them all prostrate in front of me.' (Surah Yusuf, 4)
Eleven; two "ones" together, surely it has a deep meaning. There is also reference to the 9/11 (2001) attacks. There is also reference to the lunar and solar eclipses, which are the portents of the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (as). Another reference is the Hazrat Mahdi (as) again, as the twelfth imam. After the eleven imams, Hazrat Mahdi (as) is the twelfth imam. There are other indications, but I will speak of them later.
He said, 'My son, don't tell your brothers your dream lest they devise some scheme to injure you, satan is a clear-cut enemy to man. (Surah Yusuf, 5)
"Don't tell your brothers your dream"; What happened when we told the ignorant about the End Times, the beauties of the system of Hazrat Mahdi (as)? They started to attack us like mad dogs. Some idolaters and hypocrites, I mean. We spoke of our dream and said; "The morality of the Qur'an will prevail the world. Hazrat Mahdi (as) and Prophet Jesus (as) will come." We spoke of this true, beautiful dream of ours. But some hypocrites who pretended to be our brothers, people in the guise of a Muslim, attacked us violently. Allah says in the verse, "lest they devise some scheme"; they also hatched plots against us. They cooperated with disbelievers. "satan is a clear-cut enemy to man." That is to say,the dajjal, the system of the dajjal is an obvious enemy of man.
Accordingly your Lord will pick you out and teach you the true meaning of events and perfectly fulfil His blessing on you as well as on the family of Jacob as He fulfilled it perfectly before upon your forebears, Abraham and Ishaq (Issac). Most certainly your Lord is Knowing, Wise.' (Surah Yusuf, 6)
"Accordingly your Lord will pick you out"; Allah will select you among all people. It is indicated that Allah will teach him how to interpret the events. Hazrat Mahdi (as) will also interpret the hadith and the incidents of the End Times most beautifully. He will be the person who best interprets them.
"as well as on the family of Jacob as He fulfilled it perfectly before upon your forebears."
The family of Jacob. That is to say Israel. What is the descent of Hazrat Mahdi (as)? He is from the sons of Israel. He is from the descent of the Prophet David (as). How does Allah fulfill His blessings? By making Hazrat Mahdi (as) the leader of the Islamic World, the leader of all the sons of Israel, and saving all Muslims. Then this verse will come true, Insha'Allah.
In Yusuf (Joseph) and his brothers there are Signs for every one of those who wants to ask. (Surah Yusuf, 7)
Allah stresses that there are signs only for "those who want to ask."
When they declared, 'Why! Yusuf (Joseph) and his brother are dearer to our father than we are although we constitute a powerful group. Our father is clearly making a mistake. (Surah Yusuf, 8)
The people of the time are extremely jealous. "Although we constitute a powerful group"; the idolaters and hypocrites of our day indeed support one another. They form a great alliance.

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was "at least generally aware of the inappropriate activities" of a locker room attendant and an equipment assistant in the controversy known as "Deflategate," according to an NFL report released May 6, 2015. The report found "that it is more probable than not that" the locker-room attendant and equipment assistant "participated in a deliberate effort to release air from Patriots game balls after the balls were examined by the referee" during January's AFC title game between the Patriots and the Indianapolis Colts. Five days later the league hit Brady with a four-game suspension while also announcing that Patriots will forfeit a first-round pick in 2016 and a fourth-round pick in 2017. New England was also hit with a $1 million fine. Brady and the NFLPA fought the decision to the federal appeals court level but Brady announced in July 2016 he would drop his appeal and serve the suspension to start the 2016 NFL season. [ + - ]
On June 17, 2016, the the International Association of Athletics Federations, or IAAF, upheld its ban on Russian track and field athletes competing on the global stage over the country's lack of anti-doping efforts. The decision came following a 2015 report that detailed allegations of a "deeply rooted culture of cheating at all levels" in Russian athletics. While the ban on the Russian track and field team was also backed by the International Olympic Committee, some individual Russian athletes could still be cleared to compete in the Rio Games. [ + - ]
The Baltimore Ravens cut running back Ray Rice after graphic video surfaced of him punching his former fiancee in an elevator in 2014. He had been indefinitely suspended from the NFL but was since reinstated and can now sign with any NFL team. [ + - ]
Former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez was found guilty on April 15, 2015 of first-degree murder, unlawful possession of a firearm and unlawful possession of ammunition in the 2013 shooting death of semi-pro football player Odin Lloyd. He also faces two first-degree murder charges stemming from a double homicide in Boston in 2012. [ + - ]
Donald Sterling: In April 2014, then-Los Angeles Clippers owner Sterling was suspended from the NBA for life and fined the maximum $2.5 million after a league investigation determined racist comments on a recording were indeed made by Sterling. Sterling was also forced to sell the team. [ + - ]
Alex Rodriguez: New York Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez and Major League Baseball was suspended for the entire 2014 season for his use of performance-enhancing drugs and for allegedly coercing a witness in MLB's drug investigation. [ + - ]
Lance Armstrong: In June 2012, the seven-time Tour de France winner and cancer survivor was accused of doping and stripped of his many titles. In January 2013, after years of denials, he admitted to taking banned substances in an interview with Oprah Winfrey. [ + - ]
O.J. Simpson: While the Heisman Trophy winner and former NFL star was acquitted of double murder during the most publicized trial of all time, Simpson now sits in prison convicted of robbery. [ + - ]
Pete Rose: In 2004, the former Cincinnati Reds player and manager admitted to betting on baseball games after years of accusations. Rose was ruled ineligible for the Hall of Fame in 1989 due to the accusations. [ + - ]
Tiger Woods: 2009 saw a series of events -- including a car accident, more than a dozen mistresses, divorce and therapy -- derail his career and personal life. Several years later Woods is still trying to recapture his golf greatness. [ + - ]
Barry Bonds: Baseball's steroid era and the Mitchell Report gave us hulking players (Mark McGwire, Sammy Sosa, Barry Bonds) who easily shattered Roger Maris' and Hank Aaron's home run records. For Bonds, allegations of steroid use have overshadowed his records, which include the single-season and career home run records. [ + - ]
Soviet Union basketball win over the United States in 1972 Olympics: The U.S. men's basketball team had won every single game between 1936 and the 1972 final. Had it not been for a referee adding three seconds back on the clock, the U.S. would have beaten Russia in this game as well. To date, the U.S. team has refused to accept the silver medal from the '72 Games. [ + - ]
Tonya Harding: A champion figure skater in the late 1980s and early 1990s, Harding is best remembered for the cover-up of an attack orchestrated by her ex-husband and bodyguard on competitor Nancy Kerrigan in 1994. She has had several minor run-ins with the law since then, and has also dabbled in boxing. [ + - ]
Penn State sex abuse: One of college football's most celebrated programs and coaches failed to report and likely covered up allegations of child molestation against former defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky. Coach Joe Paterno has since passed, Sandusky is in prison and the NCAA has imposed sanctions on Penn State including an unprecedented $60 million fine and the voiding of all of the football team's victories over its previous 14 seasons. [ + - ]
New Orleans Saints bounty program: "Bountygate" was a fund that rewarded Saints players with financial bonuses for inflicting injuries on opposing players that forced them to leave games. Following an NFL investigation, the Saints played their 2012 season without their head coach Sean Payton, defensive coordinator and key players, who were all suspended by commissioner Roger Goodell. [ + - ]
1918 Chicago Black Sox: In response to notoriously cheap team owner, Charles Comiskey, who leveraged loopholes in contracts and MLB laws to prevent playing his star players, eight members of the 1919 Chicago White Sox were banned from baseball for life for taking money from underworld figures to intentionally lose games, including the 1919 World Series. [ + - ]
Southern Methodist University football scandal: Southern Methodist University's entire 1987 schedule was canceled due to massive violations of NCAA rules and regulations including slush funds and illegal payments to athletes for over a decade.

Michael Vick: In 2007, the NFL star was sentenced to 23 months in prison after pleading guilty to a dogfighting conspiracy charge. The former No. 1 draft pick filed for bankruptcy in 2008 and in 2009, the Atlanta Falcons cut ties with him. Since then, however, Vick has made a comeback with the Philadelphia Eagles. [ + - ]

Obama's Greatest Failure
Elliot Abrams was right. Rand Paul was right. I was wrong. More importantly, so was Barack Obama.
After last month's military coup in Egypt, sober foreign-policy types warned against cutting off U.S. aid. After all, the coup seemed to enjoy substantial public support. President Mohamed Morsi had become increasingly authoritarian. Cutting off aid might destroy what little leverage America had over Egypt's new military regime.
So Obama spoke saccharine words about democracy and inclusion but never called the coup a coup, since under U.S. law that would have required cutting off aid. General Abdel Sisi's government made it increasingly clear it had no intention of allowing real democratic elections—including Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood—ever again. Secretary of State John Kerry, in a terrible gaffe, praised the military for "restoring democracy." And then, today, all hell broke loose as the military slaughtered Brotherhood supporters by the hundreds and instituted military law.
There's a reasonable argument that nothing Obama did would have mattered. The Persian Gulf states, which adored the coup, quickly offered Egypt far more money than the U.S. could have withheld. And it's not as if the administration remained passive. Deputy Secretary of State William Burns worked hard to bring the Brotherhood and the military together. The White House even sent two of its domestic tormenters, John McCain and Lindsey Graham, to Cairo to try to hatch a deal.
But in hindsight it's clear (funny how that works) that the people who wanted blunter action were right: Obama's only real chance of preventing the military from trying to smash its Islamist foes would have been to cut off military aid.
The irony is that what served the administration so poorly in this case are the very attributes that often serve it well. The hallmarks of Obama's foreign policy are nuance, humility, caution, which is understandable when you follow George W. Bush. So Obama did the apparently prudent thing. He tried to get both sides to compromise: Asking the military to allow the Brotherhood to participate in politics and the Brotherhood to accept that Morsi wasn't coming back. He listened to regional allies like Israel and Saudi Arabia, who feared the Brotherhood's return. He postponed shipments of F-16s without shutting off aid.
In some ways, the approach resembled Obama's Afghan policy in 2009. Back then, faced with hawks who wanted a full-scale counterinsurgency campaign and doves who said Afghanistan was hopeless, Obama split the baby: both sending more troops and setting a date for withdrawal. And it proved a disaster. A lot of young Americans died in a surge that never had any real chance of success.

Bachelor of Arts in English
Master of Science in Education
This program is designed for students interested in teaching
7th-12th grade English. In five years, students may complete the
required courses for a Bachelor of Arts (BA) in English, a Master
of Science in Education (MSEd), and New York Certification in
Adolescence Education, with or without dual certification in
Teaching Students with Disabilities.
Resident undergraduate students who would like to pursue their
graduate degree at the Mount may remain in student housing, while
they complete the program.
Students will complete the required courses for the bachelor's
degree in English, which will be completed during year four.
Students will begin taking master's level courses in Education
during the fall semester of year three.
Students apply to the program during spring of their freshman
year, and begin the program during fall of their sophomore year.
Students may apply for entry into the program at a later time with
the approval of the chairs of the Division of Education and
Division of Arts and Letters. (NB: Later entry may impact the
length of program completion time.)
Both degrees will be awarded at the completion of the fifth year
of the program.
Students in the five-year master's degree program may choose to
drop the program and enter a bachelor's program at Mount Saint Mary
College at any time. However, no more than 6 credits of graduate
education courses may be counted toward an individual bachelor's
degree if a student leaves the five-year master's program for any
reason. These graduate credits may not then be used toward a
master's degree.
Requirements for entrance and continuing enrollment in the
five-year English BA/MS in Education are:
For those who may choose to apply for the five-year master's
degree option after initial admission, either as a transfer student
or a Mount student who chooses to change majors, will come under
the original admissions stipulations at the time they apply for the
five-year master's option. Each student in the program will be
assigned two advisors: one from the Division of Arts and Letters
and one from the Division of Education.

WATCH: Will Ferrell vs. RHCP's Chad on 'Tonight Show'
Listen to Red Hot Chili Peppers on iHeartRadio
Things got heated when Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith faced off with a Will Ferrell in a drum-off on Thursday's "Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon."
The two look-alikes got four solos each. And even though Ferrell was obviously getting an assist from an off-camera "ghost drummer," he still won the battle when he broke out his trusty cowbell and led all of the Red Hot Chili Peppers in a surprise performance of the Blue Oyster Cult classic "Don't Fear the Reaper."
After Fallon gave Ferrell the 2014 Golden Cowbell for his victory, Smith and his Chili Pepper bandmates teamed up with the Roots to play Funkadelic's 1974 track "Standing on the Verge of Getting It On" and their own hit "Give It Away."
Before they got behind their kits for the drum-off, Will Ferrell and Chad Smith sat down to explain how the feud started. But they came out dressed in identical outfits, and only made things more confusing by pretending that Chad was Will and Will was Chad.
Ferrell joked that his Chili Pepper bandmates weren't even sure who was who anymore. He also had a little fun at the expense of Smith's charity Little Kids Rock, saying they actually take instruments from schools rather than donate them.
All joking aside, however, the drum-off raised $300,000 for both Little Kids Rock and Ferrell's charity, Cancer for College.

SUNY Plattsburgh has made modest changes to its General Education requirements – changes that will give students more choice.
The new GE5 program went into effect for all students in January, replacing the old GE4 program. Under the new requirements, students need fewer General Education credits – although they will still need a minimum of 120 total credits to graduate.
The college is asking all students to review their CAPP report on Banner Web to see how GE5 offers more flexibility, allowing them to study in preferred areas of academic interest within their General Education requirements.
To view the requirements under GE5 visit http://www.plattsburgh.edu/academics/gened/.
If you have questions, consult with your academic advisor or your department chair, or you can e-mail the Academic Advising Office or Registrar's Office at: firstname.lastname@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.com.

I've been using PureCSSMenus on a series of article pages on zodiac signs. I'm also using them on the index page for these and other articles. The menus are simple, one item and several sub-items.
On the index page, they function beautifully. However, on the zodiac article pages, for some reason I'm getting a red(ish) dashed border around each sub-item. I cannot for the life of me figure out where it's getting them from.
I have a global link style that turns red with a dashed red line when the link is hovered over, and I thought that's where it must be coming from. But when I tested it by changing the colour and border-bottom style of the hovered links, the CSS menu problem remains unchanged (still has the red dashed outline around each sub-item). It happens in Firefox, Chrome and IE, and only on the zodiac article pages (not on the index page). So it has to be coming from something in those pages somehow.
Since this only shows up when I hover over the top item or the sub-items, Firebug is of limited help. Firebug does show the styles when I mouseover an item, but I can't see where it's coming from in the styles that are listed in the window.
I even went back to PureCSSMenu and got some fresh code, but the problem is still there. (Here's a sample page that uses the new code.)
I'm hoping that someone here can help me figure out where it's getting this dashed red border from, so that I can get it out of there. (Yes, I know the rest of the coding is a mess. Some day I'll do a spring cleaning of the site, but for now I must deal with only the problems.)
I would post the code or CSS but since it could be coming from a few different style sheets, I didn't think it would make sense to dump a manuscript worth of code here. If posting any of the code or if further explanation will help, let me know and I'll do what I can.
Many thanks in advance for any help with this!
Could you clarify where the issue is? I don't see any sub-items anywhere, so am not sure what you are referring to. Have you checked what browser this is happening in?
Hi Ralph.m,
Just mouseover where it says "Item #1" (on the sample page). The sub-items will drop down.
Oh sorry! It's in the right column, about the second screenful down.
OK, in your mainstyles.css folder at line 424 or thereabouts, remove this line in red:
ul ul {
background: url("../images/edarrowred.gif") no-repeat left top;
padding-left: 20px;
margin-bottom: 2px;
list-style-type: none;
The object causing the funny red marks is a misapplied background image.
mainstyles.css (line 424)
ul ul {
background: url("../images/edarrowred.gif") no-repeat left top; /* this is the image */
padding-left: 20px;
margin-bottom: 2px;
list-style-type: none;
/* font-family: tahoma,arial,helvetica,sans-serif; */
/* font-size: 10pt; */
It is being applied to the background of every unordered list. (It is probably supposed to be a list item marker.)
Hope this helps.
Thanks very much for your help and suggestions, ralph.m and ronpat. However, it doesn't change the border around the dropdown menu list on those pages.
Yes, the use of a background image was deliberate because I found that just using the image as a list-style-image was shifting it up; the background-image makes it line up better. I might have gotten this idea through A List Apart or some other great site.
In any case, it wouldn't make sense that this was the source of the problem, since the image is specified as no-repeat. It also wouldn't explain why the dropdown lists are fine on that one index page, but not on the zodiac sign article pages, even when I use exactly the same include-file for the article pages as is included on the index page. (I've done this now on the sample page.)
Other ideas?
The offending code is still there. Does your server do some kind of caching or something? Mainstyles.css line 424, still calling that red arrow image.
In any case, it wouldn't make sense that this was the source of the problem, since the image is specified as no-repeat.
Ah, but you override that no-repeat with ul.pureCssMenu ul {background-repeat: repeat;} on line 39.
The image certainly goes away when, in my browser debugger, I uncheck the line 242 statement.
Oh thank you!! And thank you also to Stomme poes for your reply. I didn't think about it picking up the image from the second tier of lists. I seem to be stuck using a different mainstyles just for those article pages, since I can't find a way to override the background image without messing up the dropdown list styles. However, IT WORKS! Thank you very much!

New York • The Big East made its split official Friday, with seven basketball schools breaking away from the football-playing members in a deal that takes effect on July 1.
Commissioner Mike Aresco told The Associated Press that the seven Catholic schools which are leaving to form a basketball-centric conference will get the Big East name, along with the opportunity to play their league tournament in Madison Square Garden.
The football members, most of which are newcomers to a conference that has been ravaged by realignment, get a cash haul of roughly $100 million. That group includes just one founding Big East member Connecticut and will have to find a name for what is essentially a new league.
"It's been an arduous four months but we got to the right place," Aresco said in a phone interview. "I think both conferences have good futures."
Aresco, who will remain commissioner of the football league, would not disclose the financial part of the settlement.
A person familiar with the negotiations told the AP earlier this week that the football schools will receive about $100 million from a $110 million stash the conference had built up over the last two and a half years through exit and entry fees as well as NCAA men's basketball tournament funds.
Aresco said the football schools have not chosen a conference name and there are no favorites yet. "We can get on with reinventing ourselves and re-establishing our brand," he said.
He also said they have not determined how the money from the separation agreement will be split among the members.
The person familiar with the negotiations said the bulk of the money will go to holdover members Cincinnati, Connecticut and South Florida.
The split with the basketball members as well as a new TV deal with ESPN for the football schools still must be ratified by the school presidents.
