Average Interview
I applied online - interviewed at Starbucks in October 2013.
Interview Details –
I applied for a number of stores in my area online. About a week and a half later, I received a call from one of the store managers, she said she would like to interview me, she asked me to come in the next day. I dressed business professional and brought in a copy of my resume. When I arrived I was offered a beverage (which I politely declined) and she asked me to go find a table while she got her stuff. I waited at the table about 10 minutes and then the manager came over and began the interview. She began by asking me to describe myself and my background. I discussed my educational background and my current academic program and briefly summarized some of my work history. She then asked me why I wanted to work at Starbucks. After that, she asked me several other situational type questions including telling a time when I knew someone I worked with was doing something wrong.
At the end of the interview she told me about the benefits to being a Starbucks partner. As a part-time employee you get free partner drinks while working, 30% off when not working, you're offered medical, dental, and vision insurance, a free pound of coffee, tea, or Via a week, and after a year you're given stock in the company.
After going over benefits, she told me about the uniform; any collared white or black shirt, with kaki or black pants, and leather shoes. Hair must be pulled up, and no nail polish (for Health Code reasons.) If you would like to wear a sweater, fleece, or hoodie, it must be the same color as the collared shirt you are wearing.
After this, she asked me if I had any questions, and told me that the next step was to meet with the store manage from a different store in the area. She asked me about my availability and told me she would call me in the next few days to let me know when that interview was.
At my second interview, I was once again greeted and asked if I would like a beverage. Then the store manager came over to my table and introduced herself. She said the second interview was very informal, and was part of the procedure to make sure that any new hires are good candidates, as Starbucks has very low turnover. She asked me about myself, and why I wanted to work at Starbucks. We chatted about related issues for awhile and the she asked if I had any other questions. She told me the next step was a background check.
After my background check went through, I was called by the original store manager, she told me my background check had come back ok, and that the second store manager loved me. She offered me a job, and asked me to come in the next day to do my new hire paperwork and go over the training program.
Interview Question – The most difficult question I was asked was what specific things did I do at my most recent job to get to know the people I was working with. Answer Question
Negotiation Details – I did not attempt to negotiate. I was told starting pay was $8.65/an hour (plus weekly tips,) and in 6 months you get an automatic $0.60 raise.
Middle management is great to work with.
Job itself is good. Store support can be a tiring job, but it's not bad.
Pay's on average at least a dollar better than the median for this industry, usually more.

The region's only Level III NICU
Each year nearly 1,000 babies are born prematurely or critically ill, either at Hurley Medical Center or in the surrounding 3-county area. For the best chance of survival, these fragile lives require the expert, highly-specialized critical care available only from Hurley Medical Center's Level III NICU.
The highest level of expertise, the most advanced technology, and a dedicated and caring staff
Being designated a Level III NICU facility means that our entire NICU staff—neonatologists (specialists in sick or premature newborns), perinatologists (specialists in high-risk pregnancies), NICU nurses, nurse practitioners, and respiratory therapy nurse specialists—have the state-of-the-art knowledge and technology needed to care for these premature or very sick newborns.
Life-saving transport capabilities for premature or very sick newborns
We not only care for the infants born here at Hurley Medical Center but also for ones born at other hospitals who become very sick. If one of these infants needs critical care, transporting him/her to Hurley is particularly challenging. To make the trip as medically safe as possible, our transport team—a neonatologist, NICU nurse, nurse practitioner, and respiratory therapist—travels to the transferring hospital, stabilizes the baby, and transports him/her here to Hurley's NICU.
A team of highly specialized experts
One of the main reasons Hurley's Level III NICU is so successful in caring for critically ill babies is our team approach:
Board certified neonatologists lead a highly-skilled medical team that includes nurses, respiratory therapists, nutritionists, developmental specialists, speech and physical therapists, and many others
Social workers help families deal with the stressful emotions and other concerns of having a baby in Hurley's Level III NICU
Lactation consultants assist moms with the challenges of breastfeeding a very sick or premature infant
Hurley's Level III NICU transport team is available 24/7 to stabilize and transport sick newborn infants throughout the region
- Hurley perinatologists in our Maternal Fetal Medicine Department deliver highly specialized care to both mother and fetus—throughout a high-risk pregnancy and delivery—all the way to Hurley's Level III NICU
A state-of-the-art unit with the most innovative treatments and technology
Newly renovated with 44 beds in three pods, Hurley Medical Center's Level III NICU is designed for privacy while delivering the highest level of critical care. The lighting is low and can be adjusted in each room if a procedure is required. All the technology we need to care for a very ill or preterm baby is right by each isolette (the latest models of giraffe isolettes), as well as the most advanced nitric oxide technology (used for respiratory ventilation).
Our NICU nurses: experts at delivering the highest level of specialized, compassionate care
It takes a special nurse to take care of critical babies through very turbulent times, and also to support the baby's family during these times. Our Level III NICU nurses go out of their way to support parents and listen to their concerns, because these parents have no control over what their child is going through. We often hear how incredibly compassionate and caring our NICU nurses are, over and above what's required—this is Hurley at its best.
Highly specialized obstetrical care if you have a high risk pregnancy
The Center for Maternal Fetal Medicine at Hurley Medical Center is recognized throughout the region for delivering highly specialized obstetrical care to both mother and fetus (unborn baby) throughout a high-risk pregnancy and delivery.
Preparing parents for the NICU
If a baby is known to have problems before delivery, our High Risk Labor Unit will notify us ahead of time. The baby's family will get a tour of the NICU so that they know what to expect when their baby is born. A preterm birth or a birth with complications is a very scary thing, and our staff is specially trained to not only stabilize and care for the baby, but also to help the family through this transition. A baby's stay in our NICU unit may last a few days or sometimes 4-6 months.
Hurley Child Life Services
Siblings have been waiting up to 9 months to meet their new brother or sister, but the new sibling might have serious health problems. Also, the NICU can be a scary place for children. To help with these feelings, our Child Life Services staff teach siblings what they are going to see when they come to visit the new baby (tubes, special equipment, etc.) and try to find ways to help them adjust to this new change in their lives.
Parent Involvement
To help parents adjust to their newborn, we encourage them to participate in the care of their baby—hands-on touch and diaper changing—even if the baby is very preterm. We especially want mothers to be involved because babies know their mother's voice and this is comforting to them. Even preterm babies need that close contact with mom.
Patient- and Family-Centered Care
Throughout Hurley Medical Center, one of our guiding principles is Patient- and Family-Centered Care. In Hurley's Level III NICU, this means that parents are involved in all aspects of their baby's care, even when the baby is not doing well. We encourage parents to watch and sometimes participate in the procedures we're performing on their baby so that they stay closely involved in everything we do, including decisions about the baby's treatment.
In the NICU, you choose your visitors.
Hurley Medical Center was one of the first hospitals to open our visitation to include whomever the parents choose. Siblings, grandparents, ministers, neighbors, friends—you choose the support people you would like to visit you and your baby.
Bereavement resources
The vast majority of our premature and sick babies get better, go home, and do very well. However, some of them do pass away. In those cases, we provide bereavement resources for families while they're here in the hospital, and connect them with community resources to follow up with after they leave.
We also make sure these families have a memory of their child. If their baby didn't come to our Level III NICU with an outfit, we provide one. We give the family a hand-painted bereavement box suited to the sex and age of their baby, and we also give photos. All of this greatly helps parents with the grieving process.

Rasta Revealed
A reclamation of African identity evolved into a worldwide cultural, religious and political movement
- By Jess Blumberg
- Smithsonian magazine, January 2008, Subscribe
The most recognizable face of the Rastafari movement is the late musician Bob Marley, immortalized on T-shirts and posters wearing a crocheted red, gold and green cap over natty dreadlocks in a cloud of marijuana smoke. Yet the movement, which has more than one million adherents, is "not about singing reggae," says Jake Homiak, a cultural anthropologist at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History. "It taps into an enormously deep root—a sense of longing for a place in the world by peoples of African descent."
Homiak, who has immersed himself in the culture for 30 years, is the curator of the recently opened exhibit "Discovering Rastafari!" Nearly 20 Rastafarians consulted on all details of the exhibition, the first of its kind in any major museum.
The exhibit recounts an intricate history and imparts nuance to a movement that celebrates African liberation, global peace and "one love." Its origins can be traced to a biblical passage: "Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall soon stretch forth her hands unto God," reads Psalm 68:31. Enslaved Africans in the American colonies believed this foretold their emancipation. In the 20th century, Jamaican black nationalist leader Marcus Garvey frequently cited the passage, predicting that a savior would be crowned in Africa.
On November 2, 1930, that prophecy appeared to be fulfilled when Ras (an Ethiopian title of nobility) Tafari Makonnen—believed to be a descendant of the Queen of Sheba and King Solomon—was crowned Emperor Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia. Black preachers in Jamaica saw the event as the second coming of Christ. Selassie was a charismatic figure who captivated audiences worldwide, as when he declared before the United Nations in 1963, "Until the color of a man's skin is of no more significance than the color of his eyes...the dream of lasting peace...will remain but a fleeting illusion." He ruled Ethiopia until 1974, when he was deposed by Marxist revolutionaries. Selassie died a year later, although many Rastafarians remain firm in the belief that he is still alive.
"This is a faith of extraordinary commitment," says Homiak, who describes how early Rastafarians in Jamaica were beaten and publicly humiliated. "People have sacrificed and struggled to keep this faith alive." A glass case at the Smithsonian exhibit displays such manuscripts as the Holy Piby, a proto-Rastafarian text that was widely circulated across the African diaspora before being banned in Jamaica during the 1920s.
One of the exhibit's advisers, Ras Maurice Clarke—a Rastafarian originally from Kingston, Jamaica, who now lives in Washington, D.C.—says that he wanted to "dispel the ignorance and fictitious talk about all we do is smoke ganja." Because the advisers were wary of stereotypes, they debated whether to feature Marley in the exhibit. Ultimately, they included a small tribute to the king of reggae. "It made no sense to do an exhibit on Rastafari and exclude the person who was the most famous purveyor of the Rastafari philosophy," Homiak says.
Selassie's messages of liberation and unity are paramount in Marley's music, as well as in the lives of Rastafarians today. Empress (a title bestowed on a mother) Melanie Wright, who came from Hartford, Connecticut, with her family to be at the opening, says that she found her calling on the streets of New York after seeing countless posters of Selassie: "He fought for the freedom of Africa, so part of saying you're Rastafari means you're living to reclaim that history."

All this bickering about COLOR....let's get down to it, now, shall we? Human life originated in Africa; as people spread out, their DNA adjusted to suit the climate. You don't NEED a boatload of melanin if you're camped in Finland, now, do you? Bottom line--we're ALL from the same pot of soup, some of us are just flavored a bit differently. Bob Marley had "white" ancestry, as do all of us in some way or another--and all of us have "black" ancestry too, because we all came out of the same primordial kettle. That said, I honestly think there are way too many bozos calling themselves Rastas who are just stoners who don't want to comb their hair, but whatever. There certainly are worse religions!

Do you know if its a RASTAFARIANS living in Spain
Posted by benita martin on March 2,2010 | 02:26 PM
Having just visited a Rasta village (Jamaica) two days ago, and now in the process of writing an article for publication, I was wondering at what point in history ganja was introduced, and what were the circumstances surrounding its entrance.
I'm sure anyone who smokes, realizes THC's effect on liberating the subconscious, opening the filter to the conscious, and permitting a "liberation", which one rarely encounters in the Western world, unless using other mind altering substances. Interesting research done in the 70's (U.S.) and later by Europeans, found cannaboid receptor sites located through out the body, which means we make our own cannaboids. Perhaps some of us lack in production, and seek external sources...
Having lived in other cultures, and traveled extensively in Latin and Central America, I found that the eyes are very important in assessing another person. My limited exposure to the Rastas involved a lot of direct eye contact, which I sensed to be open and friendly. I look forward to my next trip to Jamaica and hopefully my article can further their progress in their homeland.

Rastafari teaches the oneness of all peoples because in the eyes of the father there is no such thing as a black man nor a white man pure ignorance , i say take a good detailed look at the next so called white man that you behold and count the number of black spots on his body i am certain there is more than a thousand, could it be that he just didnt get enough of what makes people black, so how can you call him white? ignorance, its about good and evil which dwells in all men, white,yellow, blue, black or pink. In my short life ive been around many Rastafarians in Jamaica and i never herd them rebuke the white nor the black man, but i shure hear them burn evil... be it white or black

RASTA IS NOT ABOUT BLACK VS WHITE! Bob Marley spoke to this often. Although just one man, Bob Marley was half white and half black. His father was white and his mother was black. Bob Marley said that there was only one thing he wanted to see. He wanted to see [and I quote him] "I like see man kind live together BLACK, WHITE, SHINY, ANYONE, you know what I mean, that's all!" Please don't destroy Rasta with false acquisitions of racial hatred!

SLOW DOWN a minute. OVERSTAND your history 1.After Western Europe came out of the Dark Ages and into the Renaissance, they noticed that the rest of the world's races had become "civilized" long before them; Blacks(From Egypt[Kemet and Nubia]to Songhai and the Moors[who took over Spain for 300 years and brought them civilization), Asians(Chinese Dynasty, Indians and Hinduism, Southeast Asia, Japanese, even the Pacific Islanders had created massive head-shaped sculptures, Native Americans in the form of the Olmecs, Toltecs, Mayans, and Incans and their temples, etc.) The only massive structures the Western European culture could contrive as a sign of civilization was Stonehenge. Soon they began to realize that they needed an ancient source to base their push for civilizing the Western Euro culture and its dominance. They began to rewrite history, steal from others, and it worked. They also artfully and craftfully redesigned their own culture, destroying the Celtic, Saxon, and other "barbarian" aspects(dress, religion, music, etc.) of it. They noticed, from the other cultures, that in order for them to succeed in creating a new "order" they would have to be efficient, "cultured", and orderly in all aspects. ... And so this "order", or the product of it, is what the world now exist in. All white people are not "evil". They now very little of their "tribal" culture, and this if for a specific reason, yet many are naturally returning to it. Rastafari helps tap into it; calls to it in all of us. So InI salute mi white bredren - keep strivin' mon fa all dats natural and true. Learn about ya ancient history an roots. Learn about why they keep it a mystory and try ta keep it quiet. Why deres so many books about Black History but few about White History before da Greeks? An little about da rest of da Europeans? What was dey doin' while da Greeks was learnin'? Keep strivin' mon. JAH BLESS

i have just recently read up on the rasta history and i have become very interested and motivated by it. The message of unity and peace really speaks to me and i hope the rasta movement increases and is made even more well known. I love what the rastafarians stand for but I happen to be white and am wondering if it would be ok if I made my voice heard in my support for the rasta's and wear the beautiful and very meaningful colors of green, yellow, and red.

After reading the above comments it seems some non-white people accuse whites for the effects of a SYSTEM ruled by an ELITE of white people. Most white people (the working class) do not play any part in enforcing such a system on other nations & are tolerant towards other cultures (as long as they are reciporical in their tolerance). Do not make the foolish error of mistaking the effects of a FEW white poeple as a WHOLE colour of people. Its the system that need needs to change- by emancipatory knowledge, as Marley himself advocated. Are we are all one nation under the sun? Peace, Rob.

Get a Life!
By Bob Hall - Friday January 18, 2008An outfit called Vertis Communications is touting its "Decade of Data," which is supposed to be a tool marketers can use "for integrating trusted print media into their multi-channel marketing campaigns." Naturally, I'm all for that. The mention of multi-channel marketing reminded me of an after-hours trade show event last year in which a major vendor of digital printing equipment was touting the virtual experience of Second Life. I couldn't quite figure out why a print vendor would be doing such a thing but that's their business. As I understand it, Second Life gives participants the chance to construct a new reality in which to hang out. Meeting avatar-to-avatar instead of face-to-face probably is more sanitary but not as much fun... -
The Numbers Tell the Story
By Bob Hall - Wednesday November 7, 2007IN THE NOVEMBER Quick Printing Update I mentioned the results of the 2007 Print Design Survey sponsored by MAN Roland. In brief, 92% of designers work in print and spend 70% of their time doing so. Print buying is growing for 23% and staying steady for 64%. Oh, and 88% do the print buying themselves. Now for the bad news – price remains the number one consideration in selecting a printer – followed by quality and service. Trust comes next followed by digital short-run capabilities and then environmentally friendly practices. To me the fact that price is by far the number one consideration for print buyers means that many printers are failing to differentiate themselves from their competitors. If that sounds a... -
Fly Away Home
By Bob Hall - Thursday September 20, 2007Well, 50,000 air miles later the 2007 high travel season has come to a close. Trade shows, franchise conferences, association events, vendor briefings, etc. have mostly come and gone. That is a good thing because now my weekends can be used for the really important stuff -- like football games. Herwith a couple of general observations. The industry seems to be of good cheer and optimistic about the near future. Owners who have figured out that they are business people rather than printers are doing the best. Green is the color of the year, but as Kermit noted: "It ain't easy being green."Printers and vendors are just now trying to figure out how and how far they need to go to meet the slowly growing customer demand for... -
Flap, Flap, Flap
By Bob Hall - Tuesday July 17, 2007Ah, what's life without an adventure? Adobe puts a FedEx Kinko's click-through button on the newest versions of Acrobat and Reader and the printing world goes bozo. Millions of Adobe users now have a straight shot to Kinko's. Unfair competition? Well, maybe – if you are a printer who considers Kinko's to be a major competitor. Maybe not if you routinely send nickel-and-dime, pain-in-the-neck customers to Kinko's to get them out of your hair. The real issue here is Adobe's short-sightedness. The company should have realized that this would cause an outcry from an industry it has constantly courted. Its Adobe Solutions Network program has been a good marketing tool for printers over the years and gives them $2,400 in... -
Disgruntled Customers
By Bob Hall - Tuesday December 19, 2006Some companies are better at resolving customer complaints than others. I once sent a letter to Stouffer's complaining about the quality of one of their frozen entrees. They sent me back a letter saying they were sorry I wasn't happy. It included coupons for more of the exact same frozen entrée I was complaining about. On another occasion, Karen and I were offended and annoyed by the volume and content of the music being played at the local outlet of a national sandwich chain. We contacted the chain headquarters and asked if this sort of music met company policy. They said that it did not and that the local store would be contacted. They also sent some free sandwich coupons, which we used a week or so later – to... -
New Guru?
By Bob Hall - Thursday October 26, 2006Not that long ago, trendy and hip business practices were based on Sun Tzu's The Art of War. Victory should be the objective and harsh discipline the norm. The latest BusinessWeek magazine outlines some basic principles from Sun Tzu: Greed is good. Be tough. Attack only when victory is likely. Beat the enemy. Winning is essential and requires clever tactics and, sometimes, deception. Ah, but that may be changing. According to the BusinessWeek article, the latest business fad is based on the Bhagavad Gita, the Hindu text based on the wisdom of Lord Krishna. Here it is important to focus on your thoughts and actions rather than the outcome. Greed is bad. Be fair. Act rather than react. Seek higher consciousness and be sensitive to... -
Banned Books
By Bob Hall - Friday October 6, 2006Last week was the 25th Annual Banned Books Week sponsored by the American Library Association and several other book selling and publishing associations. If you are thinking "so what?" then you might want to heed the words of U.S. Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas: "Restriction of free thought and free speech is the most dangerous of all subversions. It is the one un-American act that could most easily defeat us." In case you think these challenges arise from one particular segment of the political spectrum, think again. Challenges are just as likely to come from the liberal left as they are from the conservative right. As author Nat Hentoff writes: "the lust to suppress comes from any direction." Granted, there are some tomes I... -
Serving Suggestion
By Bob Hall - Tuesday September 19, 2006I hesitate to mention fast food again, but I'm going to anyway. This is prompted by one of my rare visits to the golden arches where I was presented with a Big Mac constructed with all the loving care of dirt being flung. Buns askew, cheese lopping down the side and meat patties half exposed. It didn't look anything like the picture behind the counter. It's not just Mickey D's, of course. Ask yourself when you have ever gotten a fast food sandwich that looked like the picture on the wall or the sandwich on television. Now, let's carry this on a step further and spare the fast food industry for a minute. Let's look at frozen food. On the boxes of frozen entrees there are always pictures of... -
Warm Bodies
By Bob Hall - Wednesday August 16, 2006The fast food joints here are offering cash rewards for new employees. The bounty at one place is $200. Judging from the encounters I have had with both new and long-time (usually four weeks or so) employees, respiration seems to be the only absolute requirement for hiring.A lot of us have worked at fast food or other menial jobs early in life. As I recall, my friends and I were able to count change, handle requests for no mustard, and smile while doing it. Nowadays, you seldom even get eye contact because the clerk is busy studying the cash register buttons looking for the proper picture icon. Last week I tried to order a Wendy\'s Frescata sandwich and I thought the poor kid would have a nervous breakdown looking for \"Fresca\" on the key... -
The Pros and Cons of the Internet
By Bob Hall - Monday July 31, 2006The Internet can be a wonderful tool, but it has its dark sides.It can be a colossal time waster. I wonder how many printers spend precious hours surfing the Internet and sending e-mail messages back and forth rather than going out the door and selling something to somebody. Quite a few, I\'d wager. The Internet encourages bad manners. People can say mean, untrue, hurtful, and ignorant things in e-mails and on list-serves and blogs without the risk of having to deal face to face with those the comment\'s effect. I remember one particular reader who had become so incensed by something I wrote in my editorial that he bombarded me with hate e-mail that culminated in a message alleging that I had a \"comb-over.\" Heck, I don\'t have enough...

Armattan in the wind
Well here is a video from this morning flying one of my Armattan quads. These are my first attempts at aieleron and front flips. It's been howling wind here the last few days but was only supposed to be about 20 mph today so I decided to go fly. I've been flying the quad about a month now but just started doing flips. Today my goal was practice the rolls and flips. Sorry for the quality of the video as it is just one of the small keychain cameras.
Chris designed and built a great performance quad as I'm not a very good pilot and the quad makes it look easy. Hope to get a better camera in the future. For all those that have ordered quads from Chris, your are in for a real treat when you get out to fly one.
Thanks, Jerry |

I'm just going to throw this here in case I get lucky. I need an iPhone 3 or 3s, guys.
Color doesn't matter but it has to be unlocked. I'm willing to build and ship an Armattan quad as a trade. I would also consider an iPhone 4 but I guess I would have to throw in a few bucks to make up the difference in market value. So if you have one of thems kicking around that you don't need anymore and want to trade, let me know! @Phasor, Awesome progress in your flying, Sir. Thanks for posting the video and the feedback. Best, Chris |

Best, Chris |
Dec 01, 2012, 06:06 AM | |
I tune the board before shipping. 130 is too high. Makes landing tedious because the quad bounce up when touching down. It's great when in the air, though. You're getting quite good and I can understand you like a crisp stick response. You want to get your hands on an open pilot board, mate. The stock settings on the op feels like a kk2 cranked up to 200 on p gain. The response is incredible. It makes recovering after aggressive moves a lot smoother.
I'm a big fan of the kk2. I think it's a great platform for acrobatics and it's price is unbeatable. But I've been flying op for a while and I won't have anything less now. It's that much better. At first I could not tell that much difference but now that I have my cc3d tuned well, I can tell the difference. The op is in a class of it's own. Best, Chris |

Twins look to keep rolling in opener vs. White Sox
De Vries will try to keep his success going when he faces the White Sox for the second time in a week Monday night at Target Field. The Twins enter the game fresh off a three-game sweep of the Indians, but they just lost three straight games to Chicago last week.
De Vries has certainly been a bright spot in an otherwise bleak season for the Twins. He has left the game with a lead in three of his last four outings, but he doesn't have a win in any of those games. De Vries is 2-2 with a 3.64 ERA in eight starts on the season.
Perhaps the most impressive thing about De Vries' season has been the competition he's pitched against. In his last five starts, De Vries has faced the White Sox, Orioles, A's, Rangers and Tigers -- all teams with records above .500.
"I've been able to have a few strong outings against some very good hitting teams," De Vries said. "Hopefully, I can just continue to go on that path, and if possible eat up a few more innings to keep our bullpen better rested."
Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said he's been impressed with De Vries' consistency throughout the season.
"He's given us a lot of quality performances," Gardenhire said. "He's the one that's done the work, and he's put himself in a good position in this organization by going out and getting it done on the mound. That's what you have to do. When people doubt you, or you're not a so-called top prospect through the Minor Leagues, you have to out-perform people."
The White Sox will counter with their own surprising rookie, left-hander Jose Quintana. Quintana got a win against the Twins in his last outing, but he didn't pitch particularly well. He allowed four runs -- including two home runs -- over 6 1/3 innings, while striking out only one and walking one. Both homers Quintana allowed came against Josh Willingham.
"Willingham got him twice. But other than that, he's in every game," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said after the game. "That's one of the things he does. He finds a way to work through a lineup and Willingham got him, but we wish we could have got him a win."
Quintana has allowed four or more runs in three of his last four starts after allowing no more than two runs in any of his first eights outings. He is 4-1 with a 2.58 ERA in 13 starts this season.
Twins: Revere extends hitting streak to 12 games
Right fielder Ben Revere extended his hitting streak to 12 games with a double in the fifth inning of Sunday's 5-1 win against the Indians. Revere went 2-for-4 with two RBIs and two stolen bases in the game.
During the streak, Revere has hit .340 (18-for-53) with three doubles, nine RBIs and six stolen bases. He is batting .315 with 20 RBIs in 66 games this season.
The Twins will recall right-hander Jeff Manship from Triple-A Rochester prior to Monday's game to take the roster spot of Francisco Liriano, who was traded to the White Sox on Saturday and will start Tuesday night against his former team. Manship posted a 10.97 ERA over 10 2/3 innings in eight appearances during his first stint with the Twins.
White Sox: Pierzynski to return to lineup on Monday
Catcher A.J. Pierzynski is expected to return to the White Sox lineup on Monday night after missing the last five games with a mild right oblique strain.
Pierzynski will catch Monday and Tuesday night at Target Field, and then have Wednesday afternoon off to give him a two-day break with Thursday's scheduled off-day.
"I obviously want to play. I keep telling Robin I want to play. He keeps telling me go away basically," said a smiling Pierzynski. "Yeah, it's kind of like I got another All-Star break here. But at the same time, I see both sides of it and I also understand there's a long way to go.
"Hurting it worse wouldn't do anybody any good. Just get it back to where we are over that hump and I can go four or five or six days in a row if I have to. Robin and everyone know that I can play. But they are trying to be extra cautious with two months left."
Designated hitter Adam Dunn is hitting .375 (9-for-24) with two doubles, three home runs and eight RBIs in his last six games.
Worth Noting
White Sox shortstop Alexei Ramirez is hitting .323 (96-for-297) with 20 doubles, nine home runs and 35 RBIs in 78 career games against the Twins.
Minnesota's Joe Mauer is hitting .323 (142-for-439) with 32 doubles, 13 homers and and 68 RBIs in 113 career games against the White Sox.
The Twins had five stolen bases in Sunday's win against the Indians. They had only 69 steals in the first 100 games of the season.

To be honest, it never even occurred to us!
I wrote both the ST and the Amiga disk routines, and we even went on to licence them to a few people. The ST used a fairly standard layout, but I did skew the sectors to let us load a whole track in just over one revolution. The Amiga didn't use sectors: we put all the odd bits (with clock bits interleaved) in the first half of the track, and then the even+clock in the rest. We did this because we could then use the blitter to both split and combine the data and to insert/remove the clock bits.The technically awesome thing about Carrier Command was the floppy disc loading routine. I have never seen such a complex game load faster than Carrier Command!
Of course, I then had to visit the disk duplicator to work out how to write the parsing code for their fancy disk making machine!
Yes, way back in my youth. I signed the Carrier Command contract the day before my 24th birthday and I'm now over twice as old!So you are one of the original developers?
Hey, I wonder if there will be another remake when I'm 72!

California is dedicated to the protection of marine wildlife and sea turtles are a central component of Californias natural heritage and marine biodiversity. Pacific leatherback sea turtle populations have experienced a catastrophic decline over the past two decades of over 90 percent. They are among the most imperiled of any sea turtle population in any ocean basin on Earth. This year 16,910 square miles of critical habitat were designated in California demonstrating the importance of Californias healthy ocean to leatherback survival.

Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
And our top story is the withdrawal of Rick Santorum from the GOP presidential race he made the announcement yesterday.
That he is suspending.
His campaign but he says that the race is over people use the term suspension because.
If they suspend their campaign rather than terminating it they are allowed to continue.
Raising campaign funds which which can be used for other a political purposes whereas once they terminate the campaign.
They have restrictions on how that money.
Can be used but does Santorum out of the race and let's go now.
Two former governor Mark Sanford Republican of South Carolina and he's also a Fox News contributor.
Get his reaction to this a very big development dot governor Sanford thank you for joining us.
-- -- -- So how does this impact on the race now with Mitt Romney pretty clearly the nominee.
Well he's ready he's been on the wall and are not try to -- some time.
We -- who -- over take closer.
Republicans are excited about it standpoint cook.
Coalescing around.
Well 11 person has been -- atop the ticket.
I think could conserve loser perhaps the less except it's homers -- we're about to whether -- -- -- -- -- carry their.
They're they're -- going forward -- to the bottom line is this race is who's now we're -- original auction.
Well and and and that is the dilemma there I guess for the Romney camp is they still want to try to win over some of those conservatives but at the same time if they're moving on now to the general election against President Obama.
You would expect him to pivot more toward the middle also what does he do.
Well understood liquidity to answer did you -- people -- Tony Perkins superior rollers from the right saying wait a minute we want to make sure you can security.
All things that we -- -- you don't live presidential races ago -- hopes and dreams and ups a lot of people we got 300 plus million people -- American come from very different story quotes about Toronto.
I think it's it's a little bit of balancing act because I think that -- you know if you if you're not careful of those folks who says oh.
But at the same time he's got it appealed to -- independents I think the good news is.
If you look at independence last go round.
You know Obama won in 2008 with nearly 60%.
Of all independents -- -- direction.
If you look at the current polling you know he's at 44%.
Romney's doctor for a Buck Owens talks -- is -- -- Obama's -- have some trouble that he didn't -- last -- -- -- -- actually.
Hello Ian he's -- dependence.
Independence this go round.
Well I mean it you know you mentioned the fact that.
Given no -- the conservatives would probably.
Go ahead and cast their ballot for a Romney.
Because they're number one goal would be to unseat President Obama but.
You it is surprising how many comments you see from the conservatives in particular saying I will stay home I will not cast a ballot.
For Mitt Romney are they handing the election to Obama.
Well hey if we we really the first stage is a greater role collection suspected.
Will probably be singing a different -- come November.
Because we've just got to leaving -- in her party's you know the scripts.
And a lot of people who.
Really hope that Frances Rick Santorum will be the person who really -- Permanent -- -- -- good unless it difference folks it.
And the rest and told him to report the crime it's -- what you need immediate aftermath of the kronor from -- -- to.
So you know I put too much energy into my guys -- my skill they didn't naked and I'm just sit tight but -- -- go into the rates.
It into watched the contrast between eighty -- -- and they say when it.
EE certainly isn't my first big goodies hole that it would be over here that's for the fall and I suspect -- -- them they had to where most of the folks out there as we get.
This for her.
I'm Rick Santorum has not come out and officially endorsed Mitt Romney most analysts say and just taken the day or two to recover as you say from the bitter taste left over from there nomination battle.
But that he will come around to add to that.
But it was a notable too many people who commented on -- that he mentioned that he will be fighting hard.
Four Republicans in the house and senate but he did not name Romney.
Oh yeah yeah.
But we all humidity could be an end and political contests are incredibly huge difference and you could -- -- -- -- -- -- -- contest.
You know you can you got to be true Politico to really turn around and moment later and say you know I'm completely fled guys that I was fighting against -- last couple months.
It's time to really respect today you know I I think that there's anything about the Santorum brands it is billion.
You know originally and I'm gonna stay with -- -- -- that'll get him -- quarters at times you won't that is certainly very well today it I think it has -- to do.
We won't really be you're -- as you can in the primary process.
And so.
I think he -- -- sort of where he comes from as a candidate.
Now I suspect after there's digestion tyrant who -- would we come around and be involved in the general election.
I think it's telling that you -- one of his key backers.
So go billionaire -- millionaire -- call.
You know -- -- it's her wildly.
If you -- decrees is news -- sorority stepped in Green into the into the hole to keep.

Oceanside 5th Grader Wins Hofstra LI Regional Spelling Bee
Hofstra University, Hempstead, NY … Dean Creedon, a 5th grader at Oaks Street School 3 in the Oceanside, NY, school district, was the champion of the first Hofstra Long Island Regional Spelling Bee at Hofstra University's John Cranford Adams Playhouse today, Sunday, March 18, 2012.
(L to r) Hofstra Provost Dr. Herman Berliner, Hofstra LI Regional Spelling Bee Champion Dean Creedon, and News 12 Long Island anchor Stacey Bell.
(L to r) 1st runner up Lillian Horne of the Academy Street Elementary School and Dean Creedon of the Oaks Street School 3 in Oceanside.
Dean's winning word was "mordacious." Prior words he answered were "temerity," "stratification," and "heliosis." At the onset of the competition there were 105 4th-8th grade students from schools across Nassau and Suffolk County participating in the Hofstra Long Island Regional Spelling Bee.
First runner up in the competition was Lillian Horne, who represented the Academy Street Elementary School in Bayport. Some of Lillian's words leading up to the final round were "megahertz," "limousine," and "anabolic."
The March 18 Bee was the first to be held at Hofstra and Dean will now represent Long Island at the Scripps National Spelling Bee in Washington, D.C., later this spring.
The head judge at the Bee was Hofstra Associate Professor of Writing and Composition Studies Carole Papper. Reading the words, their definitions and languages of origin to the students was Bob Papper, Hofstra University's Lawrence Stessin Distinguished Professor of Journalism and chair of the Department of Journalism, Media Studies, and Public Relations.
The emcee was News 12 Long Island anchor Stacey Bell, who has been with the station since January 31, 2012. Prior to joining News 12, Ms. Bell spent 14 years as an anchor/reporter at WJW-TV in Cleveland, Ohio, where she received two Emmy Awards and the "Personality of the Year" award from the Ohio Association of Broadcasters in 2003.
Hofstra extends special thanks to News 12 Long Island, The Long Island Ducks, The Scripps Company, Merriam-Webster Inc., Encyclopedia Britannica and Amazon.com for their support of the competition.
Hofstra University is a dynamic private institution of higher education where more than 12,000 full and part-time students choose from undergraduate and graduate offerings in liberal arts and sciences, business, engineering, communication, education, health and human services, honors studies, a School of Law, a School of Engineering and Applied Science and the Hofstra North Shore-LIJ School of Medicine.

Wasted: A Memoir of Anorexia and BulimiaWhy would a talented young girl go through the looking glass and step into a netherworld where up is down and food is greed, where death is honor and flesh is weak? Why enter into a love affair with hunger, drugs, sex, and death? Marya Hornbacher sustains both anorexia and bulimia through five lengthy hospitalizations, endless therapy, and the loss of family, friends, jobs, and ultimately, any sense of what it means to be "normal." By the time she is in college, Hornbacher is in the grip of a bout with anorexia so horrifying that it will forever put to rest the romance of wasting away. In this vivid, emotionally wrenching memoir, she re-created the experience and illuminated that tangle of personal, family, and cultural causes underlying eating disorders. Wasted is the story of one woman's travels to the darker side of reality, and her decision to find her way back--on her own terms. |

Try how easy it is rotating one of the screens.
Even with open source radeon's nearly opengl3.0 you can play skyrim or crysis2. Lack of support for OpenGL extensions is bad but not as bad as you think.
If the nvidia driver was open source your vdpau problem would most probably already be fixed and you wouldn't have had to wait for years even for xrandr support. If the flash plugin was open source the color palette switching problem with vdpau would be fixed already. Closed Source software is good for a company to protect whatever "secret" knowledge they need to protect but it is bad for everybody else.

The building is very stately looking. You would know that is has to be some sort of official building once you have a look at it. Nice architecture. Not much to be seen though. However, the surrounding area really comes alive on Sunday with a kind of like farmer's market not uncommon in Asia. You can find practically everything there.... More
I was there on sunday afternoon, and can not imagine how crowded and hectic this area arround. Usually there's some Sunday morning market. Which is not available in other day. This is special market, because anybody can sell here. Ok, back to Gedung sate. This is Netherland creation with the style of building looks so unique. There is 6 pcs... More
do not be mislead by the name. it is one of the city government administration office, not a satay club. it's name came because of building look like a satay grill. just stop there for a 3 minutes photography after visiting geology museum
Gedong Sate ,was one of the iconic buildings in Bandung city .Its now a govenmental office building.It is a beauty but, the city govenment just dont see it as a potential tourist attraction.As anywhere in Indonesia ,the view was ruined by the surroundings , traffic jam ,and many hawkers with their blue tents scattered around .Nice to take pictures with... More
Gedung Sate is now utilized as Bandung Mayor Office, which I have no problem with. Its historical and beauty architectural value needs to be reserved, thus it needs a big budget to maintain. Reviving the place into a government is considered as a smart move. What made me sad was the hawkers surrounding the area at night. It shadows the... More
When you stop in front of Gedung Sate, look to the mountain to the Tangkuban Perahu. Imagine you are the legendary Sangkuriang. Amazing. What I do'nt like is the traffic jam.
Quite close from our hotel. Just pass by and stop for photo-taking. Only a building with a "SATE" (top of the building)
Too many street vendor so it's very crowded and a little bit filthy .. It's better if the local government do something about it
only for photo taking during weekdays ....its open for public during weekends ( according to our tour guide)
