Data and Telecommunications: Systems and Applications
Author: Charles N. Thurwachter
Publisher: Prentice Hall
Price: $98 US
Reviewer: Derek Vadala
I have been looking for a book like this for a long time. While TCP/IP, Internet routing and Ethernet are well-covered topics, the telcommunications network that connects the Internet to other data networks, public and private, and to individual organizations and networks is often overlooked.
Many of us use dial-up networking, dedicated circuits (T1, DS3) and DSL on a daily basis, but it's not often that Linux users and system administrators are exposed to the physical or network layers of telecommunications systems. In fact, we're often forced to rely on ISP help desks and specialized phone company personnel who rarely grasp the big picture and are armed with only troubleshooting checklists. This book would make a good reference for any hobbyist or professional who needs to understand these technologies on a more fundamental level, although it might not be the best choice for casual readers.
Billed as an in-depth discussion of data communications presented in a way that is "understandable for students who have a limited mathematical background", Data and Telecommunications covers concepts behind analog and digital communications and the way they have been applied to telecommunications systems and data networks. Thurwachter begins with a concise introduction to the topic, after which he covers electromagnetic signals, metallic (copper) and optical (fiber) media and antennas. These chapters, like most of the book, take an academic approach to their topics. Because of this, I think many readers will find the book a bit inaccessible.
After covering the basics, Thurwachter launches into a fairly academic discussion of signal and fourier analysis, and amplitude, angle and pulse modulation and demodulation. Although the book prides itself on non-mathematical discussions of the topic, I found that mathematical concepts had not been replaced with thorough real-world analogies and clear high-level explanations.
Chapter 11 (multiplexing) will likely have the biggest appeal to readers who come from UNIX and TCP/IP-based networking backgrounds. It covers channelized T1 and DS3 circuits, as well as signaling associated with these circuits. Thurwachter follows with coverage of error correction and digital modulation.
Chapters 14 and 15 attempt to cover the OSI model and networking hardware. These chapters are better covered by Tannenbaum and Stevens and are clearly written for an audience without any networking experience. Chapter 16 on telecommunications thoroughly covers the details of phone-switching equipment and call routing, but it lacks a practical discussion of the topic. For example, in a discussion of 2-wire vs. 4-wire circuits, no mention of T1 being a common 4-wire circuit is made, despite the fact that it is a widely deployed communication link.
The book finishes with a brief discussion of networking protocols, but like earlier chapters, this topic is covered more thoroughly and with better clarity in other texts. While there is some good information in Data and Telecommunications, it's hard to find it in the middle of a book meant for students. Because of its hefty price, this book probably won't make a good addition to home libraries. But since it does contain some useful, hard-to-find information, I'd recommend buying a copy for the office and passing it around.

Great book !
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

There was a boat at the Railways yesterday sporting all these strange looking doodads and gadgets. Does anyone have any idea what kind of boat it might be and what all those doodads and gadgets are for? I assume they are navigational things, but I don't recall seeing anything looking quite like this before.

In the last month I've learned a useful lesson. Tools are important. I know because in the last couple of weeks several of mine have failed and I've had to do without. Even when it was only for a day, it was painful. So I thought I'd write a post about tools for writers and in particular, the tools I use when I'm writing content and how I use them. If you're serious about making money through your writing, whether writing is your business, or you write to promote your business, you need the right tools. Here's what I use, and why.
- Pens. Yes, I know this is the internet age, but every writer needs to keep track of ideas, and these don't always turn up when you're in front of your computer. I use fountain pens because I like the way they write, and since I also lose them regularly, I use disposables. One large pack lasts for ages, makes me feel good when I use them and I get to use lots of different colors of ink. Yes, you can buy single color packs, but that's boring. Keep a pen everywhere.
- Notebooks. Every writer needs a notebook and the shops are full of beauties with beautiful covers. A pity they don't give the same amount of attention to the paper. I like a notebook with a hard back because then I can use it anywhere, I don't need a surface to lean on. I also like one I can open all the way up, and one where, if I need to, I can remove a page easily. I use black and red notebooks in the 8 by 5 size because these fit easily into a handbag and drawer. The paper quality is excellent. I'm not sure why that matters, but I do know that given any other type of notebook, my notes are scrappy. I actually enjoy the sensation of writing in the black and red books and for each new project I start, I buy one, label it up and use it. If, like me, you tend to lose pens, get some sticky velcro and stick one side to your notebook, the other to your pen. Keep a general notebook and pen combination beside your bed for all the ideas you come up with in the middle of the night.
- Avery Index markers. These are the tools I use to index my black and red books. I write a tab and add it anywhere in the book. Its effective, helps me find stuff quickly and its easy to use. Also inexpensive.
- Writers do not really need gadgets, more's the pity, because I do like gadegts, but one I find invaluable is my Kindle. Yes, I have a real Kindle, not Kindle for Ipad. Kindles have some major advantages over tablets like the Ipad, one is battery life, the other is that they work anywhere at no extra cost. I can download a book instantly, no matter where I am, and I don't need to pay for a wireless contract to do it. Kindle battery life is superb and unless I'm planning to be away from home for a month, I don't need to carry the charger with me. Since I do spend a lot of time reading, often for research purposes, I can also say for certain that the screen is much easier on the eyes and it works just like they say in the ads, even in bright sun. I live in Florida, so I know bright sunshine when I see it.
- Porthos. Porthos is the name of my trusty netbook computer. He is an Asus Aspire 11.6 inch netbook and allows me to write pretty much anywhere. Again, if you're wondering why I have anything as antiquated as a netbook instead of a tablet, there are two reasons. One is usability. If you write a lot, and I do, you need something with a good comfortable keyboard. That means buying a keyboard add on for the ipad. Even with the keyboard, you need to find something to lean the device on when you type, I confess that at weekends I often write sitting up in bed or on a lounger. It's difficult to use an ipad with keyboard if you work that way. With the Asus I can and do write pretty well anywhere. The second factor is price. The Asus costs about half as much as an ipad plus keyboard. Note: This is an 11.6 inch netbook with a screen resolution of 1366 by 768. I tried a 10 inch netbook with lower resolution. It was OK for writing and had a nice keyboard, but the low resolution was a constant problem since I had to keep scrolling to see the full width of most screens. The high resolution screen on the Asus makes a huge difference and has boosted my productivity. In case you're wondering I named the Asus Porthos for two reasons. The first is that he was my favorite of the three musketeers, the second is that our household is deeply attached to Star Trek. My desktop computer is named after Captain Archer, so it made sense to call the portable version after his dog.
- Keurig Coffee maker. I cannot write at all without a reasonable supply of tea or coffee, or hot chocolate, mocha, chai tea or whatever I'm in the mood for. Basically, Starbucks is the best place for me to write, but much as I love them, I could easily part with all my writing income, so my Mom bought me a Keurig. At first I thought the whole one cup at a time thing was a bit daft, and it took a little while to build a stock of the different k-cups, but now I really enjoy the variety and being without my Keurig is very painful indeed.
- A Milk frother. Well, as I said, I like coffee. And sometimes, OK every day, I like frothy coffee. I tried a capuccino maker once and hated it, but my little frother is perfect. I add milk to the jug and switch it on, put my coffee k-cup into tjhe Keurig and then pour the froth into a large cup and activate the Keurig to pour the coffee on top. On bad days I add chocolate syrup. On really bad days I add lots.
- Books. I don't use many books when I'm working. I have a hard copy dictionary and thesaurus, I also have hard copy books of quotations, but to be truthful, I don't use them very often because I can often find the information faster online, courtesy of Google. One reference book I do use is A Dash of Style, the Art and Mastery of Punctuation, by Noah Lukeman. Punctuation is one of the major tools a writer has, and it can make a big difference. I have this book in Kindle and well as hardback versions, and I read some if it almost every week, because its not just informative, it's entertaining and well written. What more can you ask for? If you write at all, and you don't have this book, buy it or put it on your Christmas list.
- Structure is important to writers, even when writing something short, or maybe that should be especially when writing something short! The best way to create a logical structure is by planning, I do this with a mind mapping tool called Inspiration. I actually bought this software because it was recommended by my daughters school, and she has made good use of it, I use it for brainstorming in mind map form – the software will then turn the mindmap into an outline I can use to get started.
- Last, but my no means least, is my favorite piece of software, Dragon Naturally Speaking. This software was a huge surprise to me; I didn't expect it to work, and I certainly didn't expect it to work as well as it does. I still need to edit what I dictate, but not very much, I'm not a bad typist, but I'm pretty sure Dragon doesn't make as many mistakes as I do. Why should you use it? Many people find blogging and article writing difficult, but if you use voice recognition software you just have to talk. Close your eyes, imagine you're talking to a friend and just let things flow.
- UPDATE. It's just over two years since the original article was written. My tools are still, largely the same with one major exception. I've been writing longer and longer items, both fact and fiction, in fact I've just finished my first fiction book and I used a really good piece of software to do it. It;s called Scrivener and it's very well designed. Scrivener allows you to keep multiple drafts of what you've written, to organize the text in different ways, to keep things together, but complete separate. If you intend to wrote anything longer than an article, I suggest you take a look.
I'm sure there are other tools I use, but these are the ones that I use on a more or less constant basis. If you write a lot, you should find them useful.
If you don't, but you know someone who does, now you know what to get them for Christmas.

I like that you have pen and notebook as #1 & #2.
Like you say, many people do not think of those in this "computer age" but they are really essential IMO.
Always carrying notebook and pen with me helps me an incredible amount for my ideas
Steve@Affiliate Marketing Tips recently posted..Does Your Affiliate Marketing Strategy Suck? -
I have just stumbled upon your site and I love it. The article really made me want to start writing. It's a passion I've always had but I've never been very happy with what I've produced. My mind goes faster than my hands and it's hard to keep up. I'm definitely looking into Dragon Naturally Speaking. I think that would really help me.
I didn't know there was a software for structural planning. Inspiration sounds amazing and I can't wait to look at it. I'm sure it's available on Amazon. Everything else I'm right there with you. Keurig, can't start my day without!
I'm sure you've heard of Levenger, Tools for Serious Readers and Writers. It's my favorite catalog/online store. I want everything in it. My favorite buy from there was their Bloomsbury Bookbag. I use it for everything and it's wonderful to travel with. Everything has it's own place and is easily accessible. It's a book lovers and writers best friend.
Thank you again, I'm booking marking your site and I'll be returning.
Pam@How to Get Out Of Debt recently posted..Debt Levels Drop For Consumers in Credit Counseling -
I'm just an amateur writer, but I have at least six dictionaries. I use them, too! Words are tools to writers, just as much as a bulldozer is to a construction worker or a stethoscope to a doctor. Writers use words to make money, so it obviously pays to be a well-informed writer and have dictionaries available for use.
Tools are meant to make work easier. By using writing tools then you are able to plan well and also write well. Whether it is online or offline one should identify the tools needed for the type of writing they want to do.

Across Lake Ontario, With Diversions
PEERING over the back of a bright blue armchair, Lucas Coster's eyes sparkled mischievously as he looked around the sleek interior of the Spirit of Ontario, a new high-speed ferry that began service last month. Did he like the ship, a fellow passenger asked? ''Yeah!'' the 18-month-old Lucas replied, before taking off at a run down a wide corridor, with his mother, Monica, chasing after him.
State's Largest Charter School Faces a Critical Year
The academic year is off to a rocky start at the Charter School for Science and Technology, the state's largest charter school. Earlier this month it announced that it was dropping its 9th- and 10th-grade programs for this year, forcing 122 students to scurry to find other schools. The beginning of classes has been delayed by nine school days, to Sept. 4, to give teachers and administrators more time. The science tables have not been installed for laboratory work. The job of principal remains unfilled. The school and its management company, Edison Schools Inc., are trying to rebound from a year of disappointing test scores, classroom behavior problems and turnover of students and teachers. The school and Edison hope that by delaying the high school programs and sharpening curriculum, they can improve academic performance in kindergarten through eighth grade.
U.S. Officials Reveal Clues That Led to Brink's Suspects
Federal investigators who seized three men and recovered millions of dollars in one of the nation's largest armored car company robberies unveiled a web of evidence yesterday linking the suspects to one another and to money orders, new bank accounts, duffel bags full of cash, a new car and sunny vacation trips. The suspects seized in New York City and Rochester on Friday night in the $7.4 million Brinks depot holdup in Rochester in January -- a priest, an illegal Irish immigrant with a criminal record and a retired police officer who was a Brink's guard at the time of the holdup -- are known to espouse the Irish Republican Army cause in Northern Ireland.
Priest and Ex-Policeman Arrested In $7 Million Brink's Car Holdup
Three men -- a Roman Catholic priest, an illegal Irish immigrant and a retired Rochester police officer -- were arrested last night in the robbery of $7.4 million from an armored car service in Rochester last January, law-enforcement sources said. It was the fifth-largest armored car robbery in American history, and Federal officials last night recovered what they called "substantial" amounts of cash hidden in four locations in New York City, including the homes of two suspects. The officials would not say exactly how much was found.
Two upstate Republican representatives were locked in tight battles last night to decide whether the Democrats expand their hold on New York State's Congressional delegation. In Rochester, Louise M. Slaughter, a Democrat, held a narrow 3,181-vote lead over Representative Fred J. Eckert, with 98 percent of the precincts reporting. In Syracuse, Rosemary S. Pooler, a Democrat, was in a virtual dead heat with Representative George C. Wortley. She trailed by 296 votes out of 161,000 with 99 percent of the ballots counted.
When torn home movies needed splicing, or octagonal prints needed shaping, when pale graduation portraits had to be brought back to life or odd-size posters enlarged, Eastman Kodak sent the jobs here, to its flagship photo-finishing laboratory. But yesterday, the Eastman Kodak Company, in a cost-cutting move, officially closed the facility, known as ''Mother-lab'' to its 651 photo-finishers, quality-control inspectors, clerical and maintenance workers. The company's nationwide network of mini-labs will take over the daily processing of 30,000 rolls of 35-millimeter Kodachrome film that the 24-hour plant had handled, as well as a host of specialty services. With the shutdown will go the jobs of workers with a highly specialized, sometimes arcane, expertise. While some will simply retire, most are seeking new jobs.
Eight years ago, the longest-running big-city Mayor in the nation, Erastus Corning 2d of Albany, had his closest call in 10 mayoral elections when he defeated Carl Tuohey, a wealthy businessman, by 3,500 votes. On Tuesday, the Mayor, who has served 40 years in the fortress-like City Hall just below the State Capitol and who is not used to hotly fought elections, faces Mr. Tuohey's son Charles. The younger Touhey, a wealthy housing developer and a Democrat like Mr. Corning, is running on the Republican and Liberal lines. He is spending well over $100,000 in a determined campaign against the 72-year-old Mayor.

Madeline Breneman has not received any gifts yet
Ha! Yeah, I bet you are happy you are not in the bible belt. I'd like to visit some place like Mississippi just to experience it for my self. Compared to Denver it's quite a bit more religious and racist from what I hear. Even still, I'd love to see some of the old houses, land, and just change of landscape.
She's an artist and I think it was a combination of wanting a change of scenery and also to be in an area where art is supported more. The warm weather probably didn't hurt either :)
You know, you had doubts of God communicating as one of your reasons for questioning religion. This is something that I can't figure on how people that have a strong faith deal with. I wonder what makes them think that the person claiming to be in touch with God really is. There's never any proof it's all taking one's word right?
Hi Madeline,
Cool name! Welcome! Pretty country down south where you are. I have a friend that moved to Sante Fe to continue working on her jewelry.
In case you didn't notice (I didn't.) There is a chat feature if you go to the lower right of the page and click on the button.
You were a smart 7 year old! I didn't start to figure things out until much later.

Outgoing hubby tires introvert wife
Outgoing hubby tires introvert wife
Dear Carolyn:
I am an introvert. My husband is a true extrovert who has many friends. When we decided to get married, I knew that was his personality and was fine with his going out and attending parties whenever he wanted to and I would stay home on occasions when I wanted to.

In the most recent Content Marketing Institute/MarketingProfs study, "B2B Content Marketing: 2014 Benchmarks, Budgets, and Trends-North America," 93% of B2B marketers are using content marketing in some way, shape, or form. A staggering 73% of those marketers are creating more content than the previous 12-month period. But let's be honest ... many of these companies aren't really doing content marketing.

When Justin Hardin took over the Providence High football program in April, he immediately went to work changing the feeling surrounding the football program.
From the weight room to the practice field to Friday nights this fall, Hardin hopes to inject a new life into his team."From the start, my goal has been to bring a whole new attitude and toughness to this team," said Hardin, who took over for Randy Long. "This team has had some success, but they need to be more consistent. That effort all starts in the offseason, and we have worked very hard. Now, we are hoping to carry it over into the season."His players have already felt his impact."Coach Hardin has brought a whole new life, a whole new swagger to this team," said Providence senior wide receiver/defensive back Austin Proehl. "He is an intense guy, and we are following his lead. We believe in ourselves more than even now."Hardin has gotten a lot of advice from his father, Bruce, an N.C. hall of fame coach at Providence Day and twin brother, Blair, a first-year coach at Freedom who took Porter Ridge to back-to-back state championship appearances.Justin Hardin has a solid track record of his own. He was an assistant coach at Charlotte Latin and the head coach at Weddington from 2010-11, before serving as an assistant coach at Rock Hill South Pointe the last two years."I have worked and learned under a lot of great men," said Hardin, noting he still talks to Larry McNulty (Charlotte Latin) and Strait Herron (South Pointe). "I think I can use all of that to help build a winning program at Providence. There is a lot of potential here."That effort begins with a Panther offense that was inconsistent last year, but has several key pieces back to build on.Senior Austin Proehl, who recently committed to play at North Carolina, will be the catalyst. He can line up at quarterback, running back, receiver, kick returner, punt returner or defensive back. While Proehl will see most of his time at wideout this year, Hardin expects him to make big plays."As a play caller, it's great to have a guy that has proven he can make things happen," Hardin said. "But I think the best things about Austin are that he is a hard worker and a tough guy. That is kind of mentality we want all of our players to have."Proehl will depend on improving junior quarterback Caleb York to get him the ball in the Panthers' spread offense that will also feature senior tailback Giovanni Gonzales and junior running back Brian Mattar.The whole unit will benefit from what Hardin calls a "tight-knit" offensive line that will be much improved with 6-foot-6, 280-pound tackle Bentley Spain (North Carolina) returning after missing most of last year with an injury.The Panther defense also looks to be improved, despite only getting three starters back.Jordan Bradley (6-foot-1, 225 pounds) will anchor the defensive line from the end spot after being named all-conference at linebacker last year.Hardin says he is also excited about three sophomore linebackers, Jordan Fehr, Jack King and Tyler Pistorio, whom he says all have a "bright future on Friday nights and eventually Saturday afternoons."The front seven should be supported by an experienced secondary, where seniors Tyler Graham, Mo Kishk, Proehl and Malik Tatum should all play big roles.Providence has been an up and down team the last three seasons, but hopes to produce more consistent results in 2013. The Panthers will play in the new SoMeck 8 conference with familiar foes Ardrey Kell and South Mecklenburg, and less familiar teams Berry, Charlotte Catholic, Harding, Olympic and West Mecklenburg.Add a tough nonconference slate with teams like Hough, Porter Ridge and Myers Park and the Panthers know, "every Friday night will be a battle.""Right now, our focus is on simple, daily goals," Hardin said. "We aren't talking about conference championships or state championships, yet. We are trying to lay the foundation."Proehl sees things from a similar perspective."I feel like this team has gotten a lot better already," Proehl said. "But, the time for talking about it is over. We have to go out and show what we can do."Tuesday, Aug. 20, 2013

Description Constantine's Cave is situated in the north face of a rocky outcrop on the shore of Fife Ness, about 300 metres from Craighead farm. The cave reaches back some 9.00 metres or so and a maximum height of about 4.00 metres. The walls are carved with a series of incised crosses and two crude figures of animals. The cave was excavated in 1914 and a number of finds were recovered, many indicating habitation. The cave is also likely to have been used as a chapel or hermitage. The caves name refers to Constantine II, King of Alba (903-943). A plaque outside provides further information.
Directions From the A917 road at Crail, take the sign-posted minor road leading to Fife Ness. Continue on until the road ends at Balcomie Golf Club. There, proceed on foot down to the shore and head north east towards St. Andrews. Consideration should be given for golfers on the course. The cave is easily seen from the path.
Parking Parking is available for a small charge at Balcomie Golf Club.
Folklore The cave is said to be the place where Constantine was killed by the Danes in the latter part of the 9th Century. However, there is much debate by writers about what is fact and what is fiction relating to this story.
Fieldnotes Nothing much to note about Constantine's Cave. Though a nice spot for a brew after a hard days slog on the bike.

Pic for expressive LaTeX diagrams |
LaTeX - Graphics, Figures & Tables |
Written by Allan Espinosa |
Thursday, 21 June 2012 15:47 |
In my graduate work, I draw a lot of system diagrams which basically involves drawing a bunch of shapes with arrows. When typesetting my figures, I like using the Pic preprocessor because of its expressiveness. In the following post I will show how to use it. - A contribution to the LaTeX and Graphics contest - This article is an updated version of a post from my my personal blog. Take a look at the code below:
This will generate the following figure: Below is my workflow when writing Pic diagrams:
My first encounter with Pic was when I was looking for ways to typeset my Electrical Engineering reports during undergrad. That time, I found the Circuit_macros package, also by J. Aplevich. Circuit_macros provides a set of M4 macros to draw circuit components. Using it is the same as working with normal Pic figures but you have to pre-process the figures through
Here is an example figure I made during my undergraduate year:
There are a lot of better resources on GNU pic/ Dpic and Circuit_macros than this introductory post:

Event set for October 5
Tickets are now available for an evening of live music, dancing and dinner to mark the 30th anniversary of QUANADA. The event will be held at the Quincy Country Club on October 5th. The theme, "30 Years and Still Swinging" features live music by Miss Jubilee, a popular jump blues and swing jazz band from St. Louis. There will be a silent auction of art, jewelry and other items. A short video will be shown.
"Serving the area for 30 years is quite an achievement, especially when you consider we try to meet the needs in 5 counties," said Megan Duesterhaus, Executive Director of QUANADA. "Our anniversary is an especially significant occasion and an important fundraiser for us…we're looking forward to a fun evening!"
Tickets are $75 per person and include dinner, wine, beer and dancing. Call 222-0069 for tickets and more information.
QUANADA, (Quincy Area Network Against Domestic Abuse) began to offer services to victims of domestic violence and sexual assault in 1983. In 1984, the organization joined forced with Woodland Home, where QUANADA provides shelter and counseling services at 27th and Maine Street in Quincy. Woodland Home is noting their 160th year. QUANADA serves five counties in Illinois; Adams, Brown, Pike, Schuyler and Hancock.

When it comes to making deals, the stock market usually voices an opinion, but companies don't always pay heed.
The latest example is the Boston Scientific Corporation, a medical products concern, which has been in talks since last summer to buy Medinol Ltd., a privately held company in Israel that makes coronary stents.
Normally when companies ignore their shareholders, the market derides a potential merger or acquisition that goes ahead anyway. But in this case, the market has applauded a combination and run up the stock price of Boston Scientific. The negotiations have all but collapsed, however, according to people involved in the talks. ''The chances of reaching an agreement look grim,'' one executive said. ''The door is still cracked open though.''
With Boston Scientific's stock up more than 17 percent just this year after reports that the companies were close to a deal, shareholders are screaming that it is almost criminal that the deal has yet to be sealed.

TMM Season 4
The Boubacar 11/28/2007 (Banquet Edition)
NORFOLK, Va. -- Sorry about the late post today. Full story later on, but in most of Southern Virginia, the internet is something to catch bass with. Not a slight against those good people, mind you, I'd trade it all in for a life in a place like
. Life down there brought to mind a modern tone poem I've heard lately.
Changing, yeah, everything's changing
But I'm through with all this changing...
I like the way I'm living,
and I got my reasons why.
I'm not gonna go changing.
No, I'm not gonna go changing.
And while I'm at it, a note to the Emporia police department: if you're going to try to catch speeders by hiding between two "for sale" cars on the side of the road, you're better off doing it in an unmarked car with "$1100 OBO New Brakes New Trans" chalked to the windshield. You're not fooling anyone.
Shooting 16.7 percent.
On Nov. 10, Manhattan College went into the New Jersey Institute of Technology to start the season and ripped them apart. The final score was 70-28, and the Jaspers held their hosts to 0.44 points per possession and 16.7 percent shooting.
Manhattan had its reasons. One year earlier, in its Draddy Gym, NJIT won this matchup 56-55, its first-ever Division I game in its first-ever Division I attempt. It was also the first game in the Barry Rohrssen era at MC, his first-ever game as a Division I head coach.
"Do you have any idea what that feels like?" Rohrssen asked rhetorically when I talked to him last week. "My first game, right here on our floor. Needless to say, we were motivated against those guys when we played them again."
This morning, North Florida's coaching staff and players must be feeling some NJIT-style humiliation did three weeks ago. Last night, the Ospreys lost 58-32 at Savannah State, matching the Highlanders' 16.7 percent shooting total and tying the two at the absolute bottom of the per-game shooting chart for the year (only one other team has shot worse than 20 percent: Long Beach State was 19.1 percent against BYU the same day the NJIT meltdown happened).
But this cannot be overstated enough: North Florida did that against
Savannah State
. As far as I know, there's no bad blood between the fledgeling third-year A-Sun member and the independent program still digging out from a historic 0-28 season three years ago (although their 12-18 performance last year got Horace Broadnax some coach-of-the-year votes). They'd split their first two D-I meetings, and there weren't any fistfights in either. North Florida is just a really bad basketball team.
Riding the church bus.
Last night, the WAC's Fresno State went thousands of miles out of its way to play new MEAC member Winston-Salem State. It was a thank-you return game after WSSU helped fill out FSU preseason tournament last year. The Rams, in their first Division I season, lost 85-63 out in California to open what would eventually become a 5-24 campaign... but they
led for much of the night
on Tuesday before falling 74-64. They're going to be fine, eventually.
Walking across a nearly-empty parking lot towards the arena in Winston-Salem last night, I couldn't help noticing the big old church bus right out front -- "Saint John's United Methodist Church, Atlantic, VA" was painted on the side. They're kinda far from home, I thought, then forgot about it.
Until the game was over, when Fresno State guard Eddie Miller mentioned it in the postgame press conference. He's from Pocomoke, Md., and his old friends and family don't almost as much of a chance to see him as I do -- the Bulldogs play all the way out in California, rarely come east, and are even more rarely on TV. Turns out that about 100 people piled into the bus and made the
650-mile journey
to North Carolina to see him.
And Miller didn't disappoint. He shot 8-for-12 for 25 points, doubling his season average. He drilled 3's from the far corner all night, driving baseline to pop 10-footers.
"Yeah, they all came down in the bus from church," said Miller. "It felt good to have a lot of people I know come out and watch me play. That doesn't happen a lot out there."
Afterwards, the senior guard's friends and family, some in handmade No. 12 shirts, congregated in the LJVM Arena hallway, hugging, high-fiving, laughing and posing for cellphone pictures with the star of the game. And then it was time to get back on the bus, and time for Miller to go back west with his team.

I should take it that you have abandoned the "rational man" theory touted by some?
Or are those people "rational" in thier own mind, because they "want" to believe, and there are others out there who will
give them a "story" to believe - sometime for a price, as a book?

This is my absolute most favorite place in the whole world.
Asheville, NC, is a BEAUTIFUL city and only about a 6.5 hour drive! Perfect for a long weekend (like, say, Memorial weekend?). My best friend lives there, so I took my dog and escaped for a few days!
Asheville is quite the hippy/artsy town, so you'll always get a dose of inspiration just when you need it!
My favorite part - The Jam Man! Okay I don't know his real name, but outside my favorite restaurant (Early Girl Eatery), there's a guy selling locally made jam and apple butter. I always have to stock up on so much apple butter, I could probably bathe in it daily without running out. (Or maybe that's an exaggeration.)
Where are YOU from? Looks like Tuscaloosa has visited a few times!
So pretty.....
"It's not that it goes too fast, it's just that it goes at all..." Until next time, Asheville. *sigh*
Where's your favorite place to go for a quick weekend trip? Tweet me some ideas for Memorial Day! @KaciKruz

North Korea lays out tough conditions for talks
A North Korean soldier patrols along the bank of the Yalu River on the border with China, April 14, 2013. North Korea laid out conditions Thursday for any talks with Seoul or Washington, including the withdrawal of UN sanctions and a guaranteed end to South Korea-US joint military drills.
"If the US and the South enemies... genuinely want dialogue and negotiation, they should take these steps," the North's National Defence Commission said in a statement.
The conditions are almost certain to be rejected outright by both South Korea and the United States, which have themselves made dialogue conditional on the North taking steps towards denuclearisation.
The Commission's statement was the North's latest salvo in a heated exchange over the dialogue issue, which has become the new focus of a rhetorical battle that has raised tensions on the Korean peninsula to their highest level for years.
South Korea's new president, Park Geun-Hye, has made tentative -- and conditional -- offers of talks, which received the backing of US Secretary of State John Kerry during his recent Northeast Asia tour.
Both Park and Kerry stressed that any talks would have to be substantive and predicated on signals from North Korea that it "change its ways" and respect its international obligations, especially with its nuclear programme.
UN chief Ban Ki-moon urged Pyongyang on Wednesday to "seriously" consider Seoul's offer, but the conditions listed by the Commission amounted to a vocal rejection.
"The first step will be withdrawing the UN Security Council resolutions cooked up for ridiculous grounds," the statement said.
North Korea has repeatedly cited the UN sanctions imposed after its rocket test in December and nuclear test in February as the prime trigger for the current crisis on the Korean peninsula, which has seen Pyongyang threaten both the United States and South Korea with nuclear attack.
The North's other main bone of contention has been ongoing joint South-US military drills which have involved the deployment of nuclear-capable B-52s and B-2 stealth bombers.
"Second, you need to tell the whole world that you will not get involved in any rehearsal for a nuclear war that threatens our nation. Dialogues and war games can never go together," Thursday's statement said.
It also called for the withdrawal of all "US tools" for a nuclear war from the Korean peninsula and a promise never to deploy them again.
The Commission statement was issued hours after the North's main body for inter-Korean relations ruled out any immediate return to the negotiating table.
The South's dialogue offer is a "deceptive artifice" designed to appease public opinion and to hide its responsibility for pushing the peninsula "to a state of war", the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of Korea said.
Neither statement made any mention of a possible medium-range missile test -- the expectation of which has kept South Korean and US forces on heightened alert for the past week.
Intelligence reports suggest the North has two Musudan missiles primed to fire from its east coast, and most observers had predicted a launch on or around April 15, the birthday of the North's late founder Kim Il-Sung.
The Musudan, which has never been tested, has an estimated range of up to 4,000 kilometres (2,485 miles).
That would cover any target in South Korea and Japan, and possibly even US military bases on the Pacific island of Guam.

About Geotic
Will Wiesenfeld (born April 16, 1989), better known by his stage name Baths, is an American electronic musician. He was born in Tarzana and was raised in Woodland Hills. He currently resides in Chatsworth, Los Angeles, California.Southern California Public Radio described him as "LA's big new electronica musician" in 2010. He is currently signed with Anticon. Contents 1 History, 2 Style, 3 Discography 3.1 Studio albums, 3.2 Singles, 3.3 Guest appearances, 3.4 Productions, , 4 References, 5 External links, History: Will Wiesenfeld is a classically trained musician, and began learning the piano at the age of four "to compete with his brother". By twelve he had "completely abandoned it," but continual musical experimenting led him to record his first piece of music at age fourteen. Under a previous moniker, Post-foetus, he released four albums and three EPs. He also ventured into a more ambient style with side-project Geotic, a project which Irish magazine State.ie called "gorgeous". Will Wiesenfeld derives his name from his childhood memory of taking in art and music by dwelling on it in his bathtub, which he claims he was very fond of. Baths released the debut album Cerulean on Anticon in 2010. He recorded the entire album in two months from his bedroom. It was listed by The A.V. Club as the 21st best album of 2010. It also made Pitchfork Media's "Album of the Year: Honorable Mention" list. His second album, Obsidian, was released in May 2013. Style: The BBC's Mike Diver claims Baths' nearest musical soundalike is chillwave musician Toro Y Moi.Drowned in Sound noted Baths' use of "unorthodox" sounds layered in and around the electronics, in particular "clicking pens, vocal samples, rustling blankets and scissor snaps".British newspaper The Guardian's Paul Lester commented he was reminded of "J Dilla playing around with the Pavement and Prince catalogues" while listening to the album. While much of his music is instrumental, it can occasionally incorporate vocals, most of them falsetto.

Many recruitment consultants/recruiters who are working for a recruitment agency or working for themselves had never thought that self-branding is very important in their ultimate success or failure in the industry.
When I was talking to many consultants and owners or the recruitment industry, I always ask them 2 basic questions that they are not able to answer, these are the 2 questions:
1) If I am the client, why should I give you the business?
2) If I am the client, why should I give you the business exclusively?
For many recruitment consultants/recruiters, question number 1 is already quite tough to answer, some of them who are more experience will be able answer the first one but when it comes to questions 2. Many of the really do not know how to answer that question at all!
If you are not even able to answer the 2 questions above, how do you expect people to give you the business and sales? It just does not work in real life, you can continue to do cold calling via telemarketing, email marketing, social media marketing and other available techniques but at the end of the route you will still hit the WALL and the same question will goes back to you….
Part of the answer is related to Self-Branding, which is to say how the clients perceive you to be, what you are and what can you do. You see, the keyword is "PERCEIVE." It may not be a real thing but how the other people think of what you are.
The Secret of Generating 100 Recruitment Agency Clients in 2 Weeks Revealed
If it is for good, then it will be great but what happen if the self-branding is on the negative side and you do not even know about it, would it be very sad to know that the client perceive things that you are not into it and you do not know why this is happening? My friend, in real life, it is always happening everywhere especially if you are not strong in your self-branding.
Let me ask you a very straight question, did the company you are with now tells you how to brand yourself and position yourself in such a way that you are special, unique and one of the kind and not just another recruitment consultant out there?
Well I dare to say over 95% of the people out there will tell you the following steps:
1) Find the client and get the job orders
2) Find the right candidate and forward them to the clients
3) Close case and hit your target (KPI)
Err….excuse me…where is the branding? It seems that it is not even there at all…Yes, it is totally not in the equation at all, they will not ask you to brand themselves because the company is the brand, but do you know that YOU are also a BRAND by itself and you are not even making any effort branding it?
Ask yourself this important question:
If you have a great brand do you think your clients and candidate will follow you wherever you go?
The answer is a definite YES!
Well, apparently we seems to have answered part of the 2 questions which was asked above, isn't it?
Here are some proven methods that you can do to start branding to another higher level:
1) Play the level you want to play – That is to say that you choose what type to clients and candidates to serve, not the other way around. Do not attempt to take all the clients who are available and choose what kind of candidates you want to recommend.
2) Your Niche – If you perceive as one of those consultants out there, you will be treated like anyone of them, when you are positioned as one of them, you will end up like one of them. Choose and focus on the industry, function, category and level you want to play and able to play. Do not attempt to enter an area which you are not familiar or un-comfortable, you will not go very far on that.
3) Act like a champion – Regardless whether you are meeting a client, wear like a winner, talk like a winner and think like a winner, eventually your habit will make you to become a real winner.
4) Market Presence – Get your own website, your own domain name if possible then put your picture, information and everything people need to know to let them know you exist. Make your own facebook fan page, Twitter, Linkedin,etc…
5) Blogging – Talk and write about things in your industry that showcase that you are a professional and expert in what you are doing, remember that you must always give something before you get something in return.
6) Finding your identity – Once you have position yourself on what people what to perceive you, brand it and let people knows who you are. For example, when someone come to my website @ www.dougleschan.com they will automatically see me as The Recruitment Guru and when they visited my website long enough and more frequently enough and when they think of recruitment guru next time, they will automatically relate to- > Dougles Chan…that is how powerful branding is!
7) Search Engine – Well once you started to brand yourself, put some effort in branding your own website in the optimisation part and there will be more people knowing who you are and what you do. Do you know that some clients and candidates "Google" you when they make some contact with you? If your name is not even in "Google" it shows what "level" of branding you are at….If you were to search The Recruitment Guru, you will notice that my website is at the top page of the local Google search page and also the first page of Google International. That shows the level of "branding" it has on "The Recruitment Guru" itself.
