- Multiply, expressing the product in scientific notation.
- So let's multiply first,
- and then let's get what we have into scientific notation.
- Actually, before we do that,
- let's remember what it means to be in scientific notation.
- So, to be in scientific notation,
- and actually, each of these numbers right here are in scientific notation,
- it's going to be the form
- "a" times ten to some power,
- where "a" can be greater than or equal to one,
- and it is going to be less than ten.
- So both of these numbers are greater than or equal to one,
- and less than ten,
- and they are being multiplied by some power of ten.
- Let's see how we can multiply this.
- So this over her is just the exact same thing as
- (I do this part in magenta)
- is the same as 9.1 times 10 to the sixth
- times ... (let me write it all out with a dot notation...
- make it a little more straight forward)
- So this is equal to 9.1 times 10 to the sixth
- times (in green) 3.2 times ten to the negative fifth power.
- Now, in multiplication, this comes from the associative property,
- which allows us to essentially remove these parentheses.
- It says, hey, you can multiply like that first,
- or you can actually multiply these guys first,
- you can re-associate them.
- And the commutative property tells us that
- we can rearrange this thing here.
- And what I want to rearrange is,
- I want to multiply the 9.1 times the 3.2 first,
- and then multiply that by 10 to the sixth times 10 to the negative five.
- So I'm just going to rearrange this using the commutative property.
- So this is the same thing as 9.1 times 3.2,
- and then I'm going to re-associate,
- so I'm going to do these first.
- And then that times
- 10 to the 6th times 10 to the negative 5.
- And the reason this is useful, is that this is really easy to multiply.
- We have the same base here, base 10,
- so we can, and we're taking the product,
- so we can add the exponents.
- So this part right over here,
- 10 to the 6th times 10 to the negative 5,
- that's going to be 10 to the 6 minus 5 power,
- so we're essentially just 10 to the first power,
- which is really just equal to ten.
- and that is going to be multiplied by 9.1 times 3.2
- Let me do that over here.
- 9.1 times 3.2. So first, I'm going to ignore the decimal.
- I'm just going to treat it like 91 times 32.
- So I have 2 times 1 is 2.
- 2 times 9 is 18.
- Take a zero her because I'm in the tenths place now,
- I'm really multiplying by 30,
- that's why my zero is there.
- I multiply 3 by 1 to get 3.
- And then 3 times 9 is 27.
- And so it is 2, (I'm adding here), 8 plus 3 is 11,
- carry/regroup the one, 1 plus 1 is two, 2 plus 7 is 9,
- and then I have a two here.
- 91 times 32 is 2912,
- but I didn't multiply 91 by 32 here,
- I multiplied 9.1 times 3.2.
- So I want to count the number of digits behind the decimal point.
- And I have one, two digits behind the decimal point.
- And so I'll have to have two digits behind the decimal point in the answer.
- I'll stick the decimal right over there.
- So this part right over here,
- comes out to be 29.12.
- You might say, might feel like we're done.
- This kind of looks like scientific notation.
- I have a number times a power of ten.
- But remember,
- this number has to be greater than or equal to one,
- which it is, AND less than ten!
- But this number is not less than ten.
- Therefore, it is not scientific notation.
- So what we can do is, let's just write this number in
- scientific notation,
- and then we can use the multiply by ten part to multiply by
- this power of ten.
- So 29.12, this is the same thing as 2.912,
- notice, what did I do to get from there to there?
- I just moved the decimal to the left.
- Or, another way to think about it;
- if I wanted to go from here to there,
- what could I do to this?
- I would multiply by ten.
- I would move the decimal to the right;
- It would go from 2.912 to 29.12.
- So if I want to write this value,
- this is just this [2.912] times ten.
- 29.12 is the same thing as 2.912 times 10.
- And now, this is in scientific notation,
- but that's just this part.
- We still have to multiply it by another 10.
- So, times another ten.
- And so, to finish up this problem,
- we get 2.912 times
- 10 times 10, or 10 to the first times 10 to the first.
- Well, what's that?
- Well, that's just going to be 10 squared.
- So it is 2.912 times 10 to the second power.
- And we are done.
- Thanks You Sal! You are awesome! :)

SPR presents Wait, Wait ...Don't Tell Me's Paula Poundstone!
TicketsWest Outlets & Fees
Thursday, November 8, 2012 - 7:30pm
The Bing Crosby Theater
901 West Sprague Avenue, Spokane map
$38 & $34 - additional fees may apply - Tickets
Event Donors: Diedrich Manufacturing, Randall | Danskin, Thomas Hammer Coffee Roasters, Washington Trust Bank
Hear Paula next on Wait, Wait...Don't Tell Me!, on KPBX 91.1, Saturday, November 3, from 2-3pm. On KSFC 91.9, hear her November 3 from 11am to noon & November 4 from 10-11pm.
It's impossible to attend a Paula Poundstone performance without marveling at her ability to interact spontaneously with audience members in conversations bound to garner riotous laughter. Armed with nothing but a stool, a microphone, and a can of Diet Pepsi, Paula's ability to create humor on the spot has become the stuff of legend. Little wonder people leave Paula's shows debating whether the random people she talked to were "plants" – which, of course, they never are, and complaining that their cheeks hurt from laughter.
Poundstone's razor-sharp wit makes her a perfect fit as a regular panelist on NPR's popular weekly news quiz show, Wait Wait . . . Don't Tell Me, the 2008 winner of the prestigious Peabody Award for broadcasting excellence. Her first book, There's Nothing in This Book That I Meant to Say, (with foreword by Mary Tyler Moore) is out in paperback and on audio. Paula is hard at work on her second tome for the same imprint, Harmony Books, a division of Random House. Paula'
Paula was recently inducted into the Comedy Hall of Fame. The Chief Archivist of the Hall said she was unanimously chosen because "Her wit, insights, intellect, and fantastic capacity to improvise helped to set the bar for all artists in stand-up in the modern era." Simply put, no literate history of comedy could be told without Paula's voice. She was also just named to a list of top Unconventional People to Follow on Twitter.
Awards and Distinctions
First woman to perform at the White House correspondent'
s dinner - First woman to win a cable ACE for Best Standup Comedy Performance
- Emmy and Ace Award winner for Best Program Interviewer
- TV appearances include several standup comedy specials (HBO, and Bravo), her own show on HBO and ABC, and all the major talk shows. In 2010, Paula was invited to serve as judge in the humor category of the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards. The Awards are the largest, longest running recognition and scholarship program for teenage artists & writers.
- Paula has been recognized as one of Comedy Central's 100 greatest stand ups of all time! Poundstone also released her first comedy CD: I HEART JOKES: Paula Tells Them In Maine, 60 minutes of hilarious comedy recorded live at the sensational Stone Mountain Arts Center – because as Paula says, "It's very hard to do it any other way."

Proud Member of the Tribe?
Still, perhaps such behaviors can be excused as "normal", the same way nearly everyone jaywalks in New York City--it's something that everyone does, and the cops can't even ticket you because it would be impossible to ticket every jaywalker in NYC. What really gets to me is when "frum" people are outright rude, obnoxious, and contemptuous. Being the Am HaNivchar does NOT mean that you are supposed to act like you're G-d's gift to the world; it means that you have a responsibility to behave like a mentch so that the world knows that Jewish people behave well. When I hear people talk about less-religious or non-Jewish people like they're not even human, it sets my blood to boiling--again, being the Am HaNivchar does not mean that you have the right to look down on the rest of the world!
I understand that no one is perfect. I myself am far from perfect. But maybe because I grew up in "Montana", I have a greater awareness that a frum Jew is always on the spot. I have to behave in such a way that people will think, "Oh, so that's how a religious Jew behaves. That's so nice!" instead of the other way around. I try to behave in such a way that will reflect well upon my G-d and my people.
I know I'm not the only one. It makes me happy when I see other Jews making a kiddush Hashem. I also know that I'm not the only one who is bothered by the behavior of others that reflects badly upon us as a whole. I know that there are people who are dedicated to living their lives in such a way that the world will see and think well of the Jewish people. This is why, despite my shame at the behavior of some of our brethren, I am, and will remain, a proud member of the tribe.
P.S. I haven't forgotten about the promised translation of "Abbaleh". I just haven't had the time to sit down with the Hebrew/English dictionary yet.

i so totally, completely, absolutely agree with you. it really drives me crazy when i see those things.
i think youre right tho, when youre used to being in a completely frum environment it might be easier to forget that when youre not others will check you out. those of us who are in the minority, know that we are constantly under scrutinty and behave accordinly, even in private..
what really drives me crazy tho, is when some people argue that its not our responsability to worry about what others think.. - 1:03 PM, December 01, 2006
- Lvnsm27 said...
It's definately our responsibility to be concerned about what others might think of us. - We wouldn't have to be concerned if people didn't judge us as a whole and our religion. But since they do, we have to be careful.

I agree. Your post reminds me of my boss. He's Jewish, but in name only. He knocks everything Jewish, complains about religious Jews, etc. Yet, he around non-Jews he acts and talks like he's proud to be a Jew. I'm like "You hypocrite!" It bothers me so much. It's Jews like him that piss me off the most.

m00ks--ah, yes, another person who lives somewhere "out there" and knows what I'm talking about. :) It's true, isn't it? You feel the responsibility of being an "ohr la-goyim" so much more when the burden isn't shared by all of your neighbors and friends. And that attitude you describe--"why should we have to worry about what people think"--that drives me crazy the most! What do they think being an ohr la-goyim means?! Of COURSE we have to worry about what they think! Arrrrrg!
lvnsm27--precisely. If the world wasn't looking at us, I wouldn't care.
ift--welcome! You're absolutely right. While I don't have any kids yet, I certainly hope to raise my future kids (after I'm married) to have good middot, and to be aware that they have to behave in a way that will make Hashem happy with them. For now, I try as much as possible to be conscious of my behavior in public, and I try to behave in a way that will leave others around me with a positive impression of frum Jews. It's like what Rav Yisrael Salanter said--we have to change ourselves first, before we can change anyone else.
kishmech--thanks! :) I wasn't even talking about the news, actually, though that's usually even worse. I was talking about day-to-day behavior in the streets and shops and public transport and such.
Aviva--that sounds really frustrating, although your boss sounds almost like the opposite of what I'm ranting about. - 3:03 AM, December 03, 2006

Dear Scraps, I'm back, and absolutely eating up your words, as always.
What you've said here has that bittersweet feeling of truth finally put down concretely into words, and yet with the unfortunate twist of them being a bit too accurate.
It kills me each time I see a fellow Jew defacing his own name, and dragging us all with him. As much as the world expects more from us, we demand the same level of adherence to the truth, good behavior, and even piety from other Jews.
All we can do, obviously, is try to do our part to make a kiddush Hashem. And hey, maybe our actions will influence others. - 4:15 AM, December 07, 2006
- kasamba said...
I so agree with you!
But you know Scraps, I think you are biggest Kiddush Hashem going!!!!! - 5:28 PM, December 07, 2006

You're both so full of compliments! I wish I was that good. - 10:24 AM, December 08, 2006

I think all frum people should go live in Montana for a year...and then come back and appreciate our place and position in the world.

Amen, David. And my Ma will have you all over for Shabbos every week--my parents love to have guests. :)

Why do we want to transform markets?
Growing markets. Limited resources
Millions of hectares of high biodiversity lands have been and are continuing to be converted to produce agricultural goods ranging from livestock to bio-fuels.
As our oceans are emptied of fish, forests shrink, degraded by unsustainable logging practices and rising greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, the environmental and social cost of further growth is intensifying.
With forecasts predicting that the human population will grow to around 9 billion and per capita consumption is likely to double over the next 50 years, an incredible challenge lies ahead of us.
Sourcing of Commodities
Increasing pressure on our planet´s natural resources is not just linked to rising global demand for food, fibre and fuel, but also to where and how industries and their global supply chains "source" commodities.Places of immense biodiversity value are vulnerable to the "footprint" exerted by commodity production and consumption of basic commodities that are both renewable (such as timber, crops, livestock and fish) and non-renewable (such as minerals, oil and gas).
For example, the Heart of Borneo is under threat from palm oil and pulp and timber operations. Between 1990 and 2005, Indonesia and Malaysia increased the area of palm oil by nearly 5 million hectares, half of which replaced natural forest.
Transforming markets contribute substantially to WWF's overall goal of ensuring that by 2020, humanity's global footprint stabilizes at levels that are sustainable.

Denim Button-Front Jumper with Embroidery
Nice jumper but too small on top
This is a very nice jumper. It is well-made, attractive, and reasonably priced, but it is cut very small on top.
I ordered 2X and could not get it buttoned, not even close. There was at least a 3" gap.
The skirt fit fine, and I have a big bottom, but the top is very small. I doubted the 3X would fit either, so I just returned it.
If you are big busted, order the next size up or even two sizes up, but then the skirt or waist might be too big. Too bad, because it is really a nice jumper.

Things I liked:Packaged well and received in a timely manner with no noted flaws. Accuracy is as expected for this type of air gun Things I liked:The weight, the features and feel. The drop out CO2 mag, single and double action. Trigger pull. Things I would have changed:The way the magazine is secured. The pellet mag falls out very easily once you open the slide. I have dropped the magazines on the ground many times forgetting to cup my hand around the opening as I open it. What others should know:This was my very first airgun purchase/experience. I am quite pleased with it. I bought the laser sight for it and it's very accurate. Being new to airguns, I did not know what to expect for power for a gun like this. I'm somewhat disappointed by the amount of power it has. Maybe my expectations were too high, but I was surprised to find out that I can not even penetrate a simple plastic spring water bottle with this. Otherwise I love it. I get about 90 shots per co2 cartridge. Things I liked:This airgun is the bomb!
very lovely trigger, slide is awesome, the drop out magazine is wonderful because you can have separate mags with separate Co2.
i think this pistol is the best c02 pistol you can select if you have the bucks its worth the buy.
also the colour combination is totally awesome and it has a good heft and feel with a realistic feel to it. Things I would have changed:For the money $$$ i would have liked the drop out magazine to be better, i think the drop out magazine should hold the pellets and the plastic heel for the drop out magazine does not feel strong enough, more work should be done in this area. and probably make it blowback too. better accuracy and higher FPS is something i would definitely like to change about this gun. would not mind paying more if this changes were made. finally more colour combination should be available like green with nickel slide. What others should know:please do not change the colour, i made a mistake myself and regret it. Show Other ReviewsCreate an online review and share your thoughts with other customers

This compilation of 18 classic Jerry Lee Lewis songs is a treasure. And can I tell you, as a 28-year old listener who was born well after Lewis's heyday (I was born in 1971), that this man's music still sounds as vital today as it did over forty years ago? I find myself bouncing along not only with the obvious radio hits (Great Balls of Fire and Whole Lotta Shakin Goin On), but the lesser-known cuts as well (I love Big Blon' Baby). Lewis, along with Little Richard, paved the way for piano-playing rockers, and Lewis also straddled the line between rock and country; fans of both genres will find much to savor here. I wholeheartedly recommend this fine disc.
It has been pointed out that Lewis posed a "short-lived challenge" to Elvis Presley for the title of King of Rock and Roll. Lewis's shot at the real big time was basically wrecked when word got out that he'd married his 14-year-old cousin Myra Brown. It's a shame too - of course, I don't condone grown men marrying minors. Lewis screwed up there. However, as Albert Goldman pointed out in his controversial 1982 biography of Elvis, Lewis's downfall was ironic: Lewis was pilloried for marrying his 14-year-old cousin, while in the meantime 24-year-old Presley cohabitated with 15-year-old Priscilla at Graceland, and nobody seemed to consider this a problem.
Besides that obvious bit of unfairness, it's also pretty damn sad that Lewis's challenge to Presley was so short-lived...because in this reviewer's opinion, he was a hell of a lot better of a musician than Presley, for a whole host of reasons, but I'll stick to the main ones. Firstly, Lewis actually played an instrument, the piano, and played it well. This is in contrast to Presley, for whom the guitar was a prop rather than an instrument he truly knew how to play. Secondly, Lewis sang on key with breath control, which Presley did not do.

Weekend Project: Re-potting your Orchids….
Ready for a multi-faceted lecture? I am! Go, it's project time!
Part one: our unlikely greens, ORCHIDS! Maybe I'm one of the few folks out there who appreciates orchids in form and function, both in and out of flower. Seriously, from the lobed pairs of leaves of the Phalaenopsis orchid, to the strappy leaves held on awesome pseudobulbs of several other varieties!!! Wait… Pseudobulb??? It's the stem and storage organ between two leaf nodes on your orchid plant.
Plants in the Orchidaceae family (orchids) have many specialized features, but are prized largely for their stunning show of flowers. There's a lot of odds-and-ends information about this unique group of plants, and a little know-how regarding their care. I'll nerd-out on orchids for you any day of the week given the chance, but for this bit I'll keep it simple and to the point: These are unique, awesome plants that seriously deserve an infomercial or two ("Set it… and forget it!"); their care is relatively minimal as far as time and effort go. While their flowers are temporary, you have to admire the fact that they will often last months on end from start to finish (take that, Geranium!), and once all of that sparkle and glamour of soaring spikes of flowers is through, we are left with still an interesting houseplant. Green and oxygen-giving, just like they're supposed to.
In efforts of further reducing my carbon footprint, I've been using some leftovers as really neat orchid pots. Check it out:
Orchids grow in very loose mediums – not your standard potting soil. Often grown in chips of bark, I prefer to make a mix of bark, spaghnum and a little bit of soil, just for water retention. Planting your orchids directly into these cardboard cylinders is both beautiful and highly functional. The breathability of the material allows the orchid's potting mix and roots to get some fresh air - they never like to stay too wet. As for other care: diffused to bright light is ideal and humidity is key. It's only a small task for me to mist my orchids and the soil surface once a day to provide a humid microclimate within my home.
No one's flowering right now, but I'm content to admire, sit, and wait… So I hope you can, too. Branch out and add a new plant family to your collection and a little aromatherapy!

Rosetta Stone Inc. and Lodi Unified School District Announce Language-Learning Program on the iPad Device
ARLINGTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Rosetta Stone Inc. (NYSE:RST), a leading provider of technology-based language-learning solutions, today announced an initiative program with Lodi Unified School District to provide the Rosetta Stone TOTALe® Course" HD application for iPad® devices, part of the TOTALe® PRO solution, for English language learners. The school district, in the Central Valley of Northern California, is an innovator in K-12 education and one of the first districts to implement the TOTALe Course HD application.
The Rosetta Stone TOTALe Course HD application for iPad® devices was adopted by Lodi Unified School District for second- and third-grade English language learners whose language development had reached a plateau. Lodi Unified School District is utilizing a blended learning model that combines classroom instruction with individualized independent study using the full Rosetta Stone TOTALe® solution, including the TOTALe Course HD application.
The district seeks to use the Rosetta Stone solution as a resource to build speaking confidence, increase classroom engagement and enhance learners proficiency in English. The TOTALe® solution offers teachers the ability to create individualized classroom instruction based on each students ability.
We are finding that our students are reacting very positively to Rosetta Stone solutions, said Art Hand Jr., assistant superintendent for Lodi Unified School District. Children that have more limited language skills are often less confident in the classroom setting. Now that students are working with a program that enables them to go at their own pace and focus on areas where they tend to struggle, we see their confidence increasing. Theyre excited about speaking and learning.
The Rosetta Stone TOTALe Course HD application for iPad® devices is just one part of the Rosetta Stone TOTALe PRO solution, which includes the following components:
- Rosetta Course®. The award-winning, self-study software, complete with proprietary speech-recognition technology. The Rosetta Stone Dynamic Immersion" method teaches learners to think in a new language immediately by connecting words with vivid imagery in real-life contexts to convey meaning.
- Rosetta Studio®. Live sessions conducted by native speakers in an interactive, online environment for practicing speaking skills with other learners at the same level.
- Rosetta World®. An exclusive community dedicated to language learning. Rosetta World presents a structured, online environment to help learners practice skills in games designed for their learning level.
- Rosetta Stone Manager". An administrative tool for teachers to manage and measure student engagement and create actionable reports on student progress and scores.
- Customer Success Services. The Rosetta Stone team partners with schools and districts throughout the implementation process. From systems integration to implementation, to ongoing teacher support for management and reporting, our account managers leverage years of experience in the K-12 educational market to deliver robust services and maintain engagement.
We are excited that the Lodi Unified School District is incorporating the Rosetta Stone TOTALe PRO solution and the TOTALe Course HD application into their ELL program, said Cathy Quenzer, senior director of education at Rosetta Stone. Offering TOTALe PRO provides teachers and students with an improved opportunity for language learning that is not only engaging, but also highly effective.

True to size and lots of fun
By Canadian lady
from Ontario
I bought the yellow and it is a really bright yellow, but I love it. Looks great with the plain yellow denim skirt, and am looking for a black denim skirt as well. The jacket was true to the size chart and the sleeves were fine-and I am not a gorilla.The pockets are deep enough to use-all around a very good purchase.Would love the same jacket in a plain colour.
love it in yellow
Fit is true to size. I ordered 2 sizes so I could be sure and the smaller size was perfect with a top underneath. Looks great with the yellow denim skirt. Am now looking for a black denim skirt as well.
By Diana Clotheshorse
from Nanaimo, BC
This is my first Diane Gilman jacket, and so I ordered the large as I normally do; however, I didn't check the measurements first and it was way too big, so I had to exchange it for a medium. This one fits perfectly. The hot pink colour was the reason I ordered it - love that colour!! I will be ordering more Diane Gilman fashions.
Lovely Jacket
By Sue
from MISSISSAUGA
Ordered the green jacket and loved it. The only problem for me was that the sleeves were too short. I am tall and have about 7 other Diane Gilman Jackets and never encountered this problem before. Sorry but I had to return it.
By YorkieLover
from Toronto
Luv this jacket so much that I bought it in 3 colours!!! For a change, the sizing is consistent for all 3. There is good stretch to the fabric & is so comfortable that it just moves with your every motion. I luv the versatility of this jacket as it can be paired with the dominate colour or black. I've received many compliments on it & would highly recommend it!I think Diane is listening re: sizing consistency.

Love this jacket
By Shopping Sharon
from Elora, ON
I ordered this jacket from the ad before the show.I'm loving the green this season.It fits and a 3X is really a good 3X. I like that little bit of stretch.
Great color!
By BistroBabe
from Montreal QC
I bought this in green, it's very nice. I agree with others, the cuff/sleeve is way too big, it makes the jacket look cheap. Having said that, I still like the jacket. It looks great with black jeans, but a tank in the lime green color would have been perfect.
I love this jacket.
By Karen
from Whitby
I ordered this jacket in the turquoise with matching pants and the poplin top . Looks gorgeous.
This jacket is awesome.
By Red
from Edmonton, Alberta
I love this jacket, just like all my Diane jackets. She is great and she looked wonderful,when she was there.
Love the green
By Stylish Lady
from New Brunswick
I ordered this in the green, hoping it would match the skinny jeans from last summer and it does, perfectly. I love the color and it looks good with a lot of different jeans, my chambray, black, indigo and white. I like the length which seems to be a bit shorter the some of the earlier DG jean jackets. I have noticed a bit of variation in the fit of items in the DG line as of late but not the case in this. It fits great.

My Social Agency - Slaying Facebook Scams By Kerry Butters
In terms of spam, scams and more sinister and malicious threats, Facebook represents one of the top threats in the world of internet security today. The type of scams that circulate on Facebook have often been around for many years however, and many have their roots in similar or identical hoaxes and suchlike which used to be more prevalent in email.
With this in mind, I spoke to Australia-based Brett Christensen, a man who has been running the Hoax-Slayer site alone since 2003.
Subject: Re: (whatever hoax message)
Hi [Sender's Name],
Thanks for your message.
However, I need to tell you that the email is actually a known hoax. You can check this for yourself by reading the article(s) at the link(s) below:
There are a great many email hoaxes going around all the time and some keep circulating for years. Most of us have fallen for an email hoax at some point I think, including yours truly (grin). These days, before I forward an email message, I always check it out at:
[Add links to one or more hoax information websites]
Another good way to check if a message is a hoax, is to conduct an Internet search using a key phrase from the message. This will often bring up one or more reputable articles that clearly indicate if the claims in the message are true or false.
You might like to let whoever sent you the message know that it is a hoax as well.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes
[Your Name]

Easy Interview
I applied online and the process took 4+ weeks - interviewed at KeyBank in May 2012.
Interview Details After completing an online application, I received an invitation to complete a 'virtual screening', which was an online series of questions ranging from questions about how you would handle specific situations (multiple choice) to 'math type' questions. After passing that screen, I was invited to an 'interview day' in their corporate office, which took place almost a month later. I've done panel interviews before (both as an interviewer and as an interviewee), but this was the first time I'd ever heard of a group interview, where there were several of us (5) who were applying for the same position in the same room, all being asked questions (individually, one at a time) by a panel of 4 or 5 company managers. (I have since learned that this seems to be fairly common in the banking industry for teller positions.) None of us was asked the same question, with the exception of some basic questions about our backgrounds and which branch we were looking to work at. All the situational questions asked of each of us were different. Following that process, which took about an hour, we took about a 10-minute break, at which point each of the managers came back and took each of us separately into a different room for a 1:1 interview. Based on the description of the job during the process, I realized that it was probably not something I wanted to do, and pretty much took myself out of the running during the 1:1 interview, however I felt comfortable during the interview and it was very well handled by all of the managers.
Interview Question – Tell me about a time when you had to deal with a difficult customer or client? What happened, how did you handle it, and what was the outcome? Answer Question

Interview Details I walked in seeking employment, resume in hand. I spoke to the client service manager, who seemed eager to take my information. I was asked to apply online and that I would receive a call. Within a week, I was called for an in person interview with the branch manager and client service manager. I was immediately offered the position with a tentative offer. Over the next three weeks, I had a phone interview with he human resources associate. She than proceeded to perform a background check and I had to schedule a drug test. When everything came back, I was able to begin employment with Key Bank.
Interview Question – Talk about any leadership experience you've had. Answer Question
Negotiation Details – This entails any position, but to always aim high. I was told initially that this was an entry level position paying no more than ten dollars per hour. I than said I couldn't take anything less has eleven.

Less than a week until the draft boys and girls and the anticipation is starting to build. Will the OIlers pick Yakupov, Murray or trade down? Do the Leafs finally convince someone to take Luke Schenn? Will Calgary trade one of their "big three" contracts? Will everyone in the arena boo the Canucks organization again?
These questions (and more) will be answered in Pittsburgh this coming Friday/Saturday. For now, we're left speculating with folks like Jonathan Willis, Brad MacPherson and Kent Wilson.

Only Democrats (and one Independent) attend candidate forum sponsored by NAACP, Tucson Urban League & Black Chamber of Commerce
Tuesday, August 31st, 2010Got a late notice to attend a candidate community forum sponsored by the NAACP – Tucson chapter, Tucson Urban League, and the Tucson-Southern Arizona Black Chamber of Commerce, held tonight at the Dunbar School Auditorium, 325 W. 2nd Street (at Main Ave.) As I walked in Jonathan Peck, President of the Tucson Urban League was announcing that all Republican, Democratic and 3rd party candidates (statewide) and for Southern Arizona had been invited to attend & participate. About 100 people, mostly African Americans, were in the audience.
These were the state legislators that participated tonight (1st panel):
LD 25 House Rep. Pat Fleming (D)
LD 27 House candidates Sally Ann Gonzales and Dr. Macario Saldate (Ds)
LD 28 Senator Paula Aboud (D)
LD 28 Senate candidate Dave Ewoldt (I)
LD 28 House Rep. Steve Farley (D)
LD 28 House candidate Bruce Wheeler (D)
LD 30 House candidate Andrea Dalessandro (D)
LD 30 Senate candidate Dr. Todd Camenish (D), came in late
Also attending to participate in the 2nd panel were U.S. Senate candidate Rodney Glassman,
Attorney General Terry Goddard running for Governor, Sec. of State candidate Chris Deschene, and State Mine Inspector candidate Manuel Cruz, all Democrats.
Questions asked of the panelists were basically about steps they would take to improve education, to bring economic opportunity to minority populations, to strengthen public health for communities of color, to provide quality health care, and to insure equal treatment in the criminal justice system for minority populations. Being as these were all Democrats (and one Independent, formerly a Green Party activist) their answers were quite uniform in advocating and trying to restore funding to all these areas.
Of note: Sally Ann Gonzales mentioned that she is of Yaqui heritage, Chris Deschene is a member of the Navajo Nation, and Manuel Cruz and Dr. Macario Saldate are Hispanic, and provided their ethnic backgrounds and expertise to their responses.
The last question was about what steps could be taken to insure a fair and just dialogue re: immigration reform, and both Rodney Glassman and Terry Goddard said that could be done by "retiring John McCain." Chris Deschene repeatedly asked the audience to elect Democrats to the state legislature, where he currently serves as House Rep. in LD 2.
Also in attendance tonight were former Pima County Democratic Party Chair Paul Eckerstrom for Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, and former Democratic Pima County Supervisor Dan Eckstrom. Fellow blogger "3 Sonorans" (David Morales) was there as well, and will be posting a video capturing the panelists' answers to some of these questions. I'll link to his blog once he posts it. UPDATE: Unfortunately neither David nor I got a lot of advance notice of this forum, so his cell phone video did not tape well (see his comment below).

ÃTamara Drewe,à starring Gemma Arterton, above, opens Friday at the Capitol Theatre. ÃStoneà finishes its run tonight. Showings are at 7:30 each night. Admission is $8 a ticket. Sony Pictures Classics Photo (Aberdeen News / January 13, 2011) |
Tamara Drewe was such a saucy little minx growing up in her idyllic village in the English countryside - even before a nose job that would embolden her further - that years after her departure, men of various backgrounds and generations still feel a tingle at the very thought of her.
Now she's returned home in Tamara Drewe, a light and whimsical affair that isn't quite so unforgettable as the title character herself.
It does feature a beguiling turn from Gemma Arterton, who is on a roll lately in a series of varied parts, including the haughty royalty in Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time and the resourceful kidnapping victim in The Disappearance of Alice Creed.
The latest entry in director Stephen Frears' lengthy and eclectic filmography, which includes The Queen, High Fidelity and Dangerous Liaisons, is a clever twist on the traditional romantic British romp - only instead of being filled with charming characters, nearly everyone in Tamara Drewe is selfish, scheming or unlikable.
Moira Buffini's screenplay is based on the graphic novel by Posy Simmonds, which was inspired by Thomas Hardy's Far From the Madding Crowd. And wouldn't you know, much of the action occurs at a rural writer's retreat where one of the would-be authors is working on a book about Thomas Hardy.
The place is also a working farm populated by chickens and cows; the whole operation runs smoothly under the generous and gracious Beth Hardiment, steadfast wife of the arrogant and philandering crime novelist Nicholas Hardiment. Tamsin Greig is naturally lovely and vulnerable as Beth, while Roger Allam is convincingly skeevy as her husband.
The strapping Andy Cobb (Luke Evans) is Beth's stoic right-hand man. Among their guests is the nebbishy Glen (Bill Camp), who's struggling with his book on Hardy.
All the film's characters respond viscerally when Tamara returns to town to take over her family's estate next door. Nicknamed Beakie as a teenager for her honking nose, Tamara has been transformed through the wonders of rhinoplasty - but as she climbs over a wooden fence, it's her derriere-hugging shorts that really draw attention.
Tamara, a big-time London journalist, also works her magic on Ben Sergeant (Dominic Cooper), the surly, preening drummer for a rock band that's performing a concert nearby. Tamara is supposed to be writing a story about Ben, but instead invites him home and jumps into bed with him.
The entirety of Tamara Drewe consists of her tempting and tormenting men, which grows more complicated when a couple of bored teenagers (Jessica Barden and Charlotte Christie), fans of Ben, break into Tamara's house and fire off some scheming e-mails. (R, 107 minutes)

Healthy farms conference set for mid-February
Nebraska Wheat Board announces December meeting
More Ag News
Click Here for theHOTTEST SHEETS!
Last week, the United States Senate passed a new farm bill which, among its many provisions, changes the way crop insurance is calculated, makes some changes to farm subsidies, and finances new price support programs.
While the bill still has to pass the House of Representatives, it once again raises the issue of farm subsidies and their effects on the overall economy.
Farm subsidies first began during the Great Depression when Presidents Hoover and Roosevelt enacted price floors and began paying farmers not to grow crops in order to deal with oversupply and stop prices from falling.
Since then, Congress has passed similar farm bills sustaining these subsidies approximately every five years, resulting in a gross distortion of the agricultural markets.
These subsidies were originally intended to help small family farmers from bankruptcy due to falling commodity prices, but they have since become America's largest corporate welfare program.
Farm subsidies are awarded based upon the type of crop grown - with 90 percent being awarded for growing corn, wheat, rice, cotton, and soybeans - and the amount of crop grown, with high producers receiving higher subsidies. This means that most subsidies go not to the family farmer who could face bankruptcy in the event of a bad yield, but instead go to large farms and agribusinesses who can afford to produce the favored crops in massive quantities.
The corporate welfare nature of farm subsidies becomes clear when one examines exactly where the subsidies go. Nebraska currently receives $239 million in direct payment subsidies, the seventh-highest payment in the nation.
Those payments go to the 73.2 percent of all Nebraska farmers who collect government subsidies.
Of those 73.2 percent, 10 percent collected 62 percent of all subsidies awarded in the state. The top 10 percent of subsidized farmers in Nebraska collected an average of $35,752 per year in subsidies between 1995 and 2010, while the bottom 80 percent of Nebraska's subsidized farmers collected an average of $1,334 per year in subsidies over the same time period.
Adding to the idea that farm subsidies are far from a "safety net" is that fact that Nebraska farmers are currently seeing record-high farm income. In 2011, the net total farm income was $5.4 billion, a 35 percent increase over 2010, a year where farmers already saw their income increase 49 percent from 2009.
Farm income accounted for one-third of the state's income growth in 2011. On a national level, 2010 Census data indicates that the average farm household income was 25 percent higher than the average for all U.S. taxpayers.
On top of all this, some of the subsidies go to organizations that do not use farming as their primary income, further diminishing the role of subsidies as a last resort safety net.
For example, between 1995 and 2010, the 19th largest recipient of farm subsidies in the state of Nebraska was the University of Nebraska Board of Regents, who received $2,797,796 in subsidies from the federal government over those 15 years.
Nebraskans must recognize that we do not need subsidies to have a thriving agricultural sector.
The example of New Zealand shows that when a country eliminates subsidies it can actually create innovation which improves the economic health of the agricultural sector. In 1984, the New Zealand government subsidized 44 percent of all sheep farming, meaning that although farmers sold lamb for $30, it was only actually worth $12.50 in the international marketplace with the government making up the difference.
That same year New Zealand eliminated their sheep farming subsidies. By 1989, after changing how they produced, processed, and sold their product, New Zealand farmers found a new market for their lamb and began selling it for $30 without government assistance. By 1999, the price had increased to $115.
Far from providing a safety net to small farmers - something that is better provided through things like crop and disaster insurance - farm subsidies have become tools for corporate welfare, taking taxpayer money and giving it to organizations that do not need it.
Nebraskans should encourage their federal representatives to end farm subsidies and allow farmers to be independent from the government.
The Platte Institute for Economic Research is a Nebraska advocacy group that seeks to preserve "free enterprise, personal responsiblity and limited government," according to its website.

Aleene's® Original Tacky Glue®
Tulip® Soft Fabric Paint
BI15794 Cool Blue
White bread, 6 slices
Ziptop plastic bag, large
Mix the bread with Tacky Glue (generally, use 1 Tablespoon of glue for each slice of bread). For a nice smooth dough, be sure to scrape all the glue out of the spoon before refilling. For larger amounts of dough, we recommend 1/4 cup to 4 slices of bread. Knead until smooth.
If after 10 minutes the mixture is still too sticky, add more small pieces of bread. If it is too dry or stiff, add a few more drops of glue.
Place ball into plastic bag. Knead until smooth and pliable.
To color, add paint to dough or wait until dry and paint with paint.
If desired, color dough with Soft Fabric Paint.
Form skeleton using photo as a guide. Let dry.
Add buttons by squeezing a dot of Basic Black paint where desired. Lightly push buttons into wet paint so paint oozes through openings.
