The Rev. Billy Graham prayed with Romney and offered support during a visit Thursday while Romney stumped in North Carolina. Graham lives in western North Carolina.
Graham has met with every sitting American president from Harry Truman to President Obama. For more than 50 years, he has staged revivals he called crusades around the world.
Graham, accompanied by his son Franklin Graham, who heads up the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, prayed for Romney, his family as well as the nation.
"The 30-minute meeting between the world-renowned Christian leader and Romney could provide the former governor with a major boost among evangelical Christians skeptical of supporting the first Mormon nominated for president," The Washington Post's Ed O'Keefe reported Thursday.
In a statement released Thursday night, Graham said that he knew Romney's father, whom he considered a friend. He also said he's followed Romney's career, but has been most impressed by his "values and strong moral convictions.
"I appreciate his faithful commitment to his impressive family, particularly his wife Ann of 43 years and his five married sons.
"It was a privilege to pray with Governor Romney—for his family and our country. I will turn 94 the day after the upcoming election, and I believe America is at a crossroads," according to the statement. "I hope millions of Americans will join me in praying for our nation and to vote for candidates who will support the biblical definition of marriage, protect the sanctity of life and defend our religious freedoms."
Reporters were not permitted into the meeting, but photographers and television producers were able to record the last moments, O'Keefe reported. According to a transcript of their exchange, provided by NBC News, the ailing evangelist asked the GOP nominee how he could help.
"Prayer is the most helpful thing you can do for me," Romney said, according to the transcript. "And what you're planning, what your son has shown me is going to be very, very helpful. And I appreciate that. It's going to be terrific."
"Romney's embrace of Franklin Graham draws in an evangelical leader who has been criticized for his harsh views of Islam," the Associated Press reported Thursday. "The younger Graham has described Islam as evil and offensive and has said Muslims should know that Christ died for their sins.
Earlier this year, Franklin Graham endorsed primary rival Rick Santorum, a Catholic. "Pressed during an interview on MSNBC, Graham would not say that Romney was a Christian," the Associated Press reported. "'He is a Mormon. Most Christians would not recognize Mormonism ... but he would be a good president if he won the nomination.'"
In the same interview, he also apologized for refusing to say if President Obama was a Christian.

cost efficient tips to "putting yourself out there"
So if there's one thing I've learned after spending nearly 15 years doing marketing for many products and services and then launching my own business is it's much harder to market yourself! It feels so icky and networking feels taboo but the reality is, both marketing and networking are necessary evils to success.
As we explained in our last post, starting with who you know is a great way to start the networking process. You never know where one innocent conversation could lead and who your network could connect you to. And really you don't realize how much people are willing to do for you until you ask. So definitely don't take the power of networking lightly.
But often times it helps to put yourself out there in a few other ways as well, allow people to find you beyond that initial conversation and help them spread the word about you by having you "pop up" in other places. What do I mean by that? Well, typically for something to resonate, people need to see or hear it a minimum of 3x. And in today's world where we are bombarded with messages it's safe to assume more than 3x. So let's talk about how and where you can put yourself out there, and for cheap because we know, budgets are tight (or non existent).
1. Have a Website and/or a Blog: Most artists are likely to have some online forum that features your work by now but if not, don't be intimidated—it's now rather affordable and you don't have to be real "techy." While this may not be 100% free to create, a website and/or blog is likely to gain you the most traffic but more importantly, help you build up that image that you're "legit" and you've got product or services to sell. And today, there are websites like Squarespace.com and Wordpress.com that offer you really affordable "all-in-one" website templates that are built to include tracking, search engine optimization and of course the ability to import photos, videos, custom content and more. So even if you already have a website—consider a blog in addition. It's a great way to drive traffic to your site and show off a bit more of who you are. And both websites and blogs are great for Google search results. So check out either of the sites mentioned above for your website or blog as well as tumblr.com and blogspot.com for blogs only.
2. Stay Connected: While I'm sure everyone is well aware of Facebook and how it can keep you connected, did you know LinkedIn can also be a great source? LinkedIn has many "groups" that you can join for free and connect with people like you for advice, promotions, etc. And if you spend the time building up your network in LinkedIn (sending requests to connect), it works similar to Facebook by which your network will see anything you post/update on your profile page in their newsfeed. So a good tip to keep in mind for both sites—find ways to update your profile page often so you will re-appear in people's newsfeed to stay top of mind. New work, new profile image, new exhibition—be sure to update both your Facebook and LinkedIn pages for all of your network to see.
3. Marketing with Social Media: Now more than ever it's easy to help spread your name by "word of mouth" via social media. The following are all great ways to promote your work, be seen and give your fans a way to stay connected. And keep mind, social media is like one huge spider web, so be sure to feature each of you page links on your other social pages to maximize your exposure. Here's a quick social media cheat sheet:
Facebook: Artists can create a "Page" to showcase work, announce events, engage fans etc. The two critical pieces: content and frequency. Facebook is good for updates that you want to "stay around" on your page for a while—so great for photos and/or videos. Post a couple times a week so you stay top of mind in people's news feed. And encourage your friends and contacts to "like" your content so it spreads and shows up in their feeds to their friends as well.
Twitter: A micro-blogging site best for quick, short updates which works well for news on new work, events, announcements, thoughts, etc. The advantage here is you're part of another community where you can connect to people like you and also provide fans a way to engage with you. It is meant to be a two way convo, so no one wants to talk to the person who only blasts their own ideas—on Twitter it's best to engage with your followers through tweeting back @ them. Tip: check out Search.twitter.com to see what people are talking about and how you can contribute to the conversation and sites like wefollow.com or twellow.com help you find/follow people who love what you have to offer (those who mention art, performing arts, etc in their profiles) and once you follow them, they can discover you and follow you back. And, like Facebook, Twitter is totally free!
Flickr: A free, or affordable if you upgrade, photo sharing site. If you're unable to build a full website, this can be a great place to show of your work and start to build up a portfolio of images. Make sure you feature your Flickr page/link on all your other social media profile pages as well as your website or blog.
Pintrest: The latest craze in social media. While the site says it's not meant to be for self promotion but instead visual discovery, they do encourage that people share images, designs, photos, art and "tag" that image with the original source. So for an artist you can share your work (low res version of course) and tag it with your name or website so people know how to find more of what they love. And you can promote your "pins" with a link on your website or FB page, also free!
YouTube: YouTube is second to Google as the most used search engine. So this is a great opportunity to feature your content and tag your videos so you will show up in search results. Create a "channel page" so all of your content is stored in once place and you can then drive traffic to your YouTube channel through your other social pages.
4. Email Marketing: Sending out a "mass email" to all of your past, current and potential customers is a great way to keep them informed and engaged. If you have new piece of work you're promoting, an exhibition coming up or any other relevant news you think they would find of interest, design a quick email blast on something like Mail Chimp or Pitchengine.com. And make sure you're talking to your gallery about including your work/news on their monthly or quarterly email blasts.
5. Join Art Communities: If you haven't already, think about places that can serve as a conduit for you to get exposure. There are online sites where you can be listed or even feature your work for sale like: deviantart.com, pelime.com, coroflot.com and organizations also offer "listing opportunities" like NYFA Source, an extensive national directory for artists and art organizations. There is a cost to some of these but worth looking into to see how you can further promote yourself.
So there's a quick crash course on some ways you can network, stay connected and promote your brand. Next up I'll be talking about "branding" and what exactly does that mean, what's the power behind a good brand and how to go about building your own brand image.
What questions do you have about marketing—leave us a comment or question here and we'll be sure to answer it.
thanks, jen (marketing guru)

By: Rebecca Walker Posted: April 7 2011 12:45 AM 0 All hail National Poetry Month, in which we are allowed -- encouraged, even -- to revel in words laid one by one without the usual constraints of punctuation or the so-called rational sequencing of prose. In honor of this month of literary freedom, my picks for April are from three of our freshest, most accomplished young poets -- and one, now gone, I cannot imagine life without. In the coming months, look for new books of poetry by bell hooks and Percival Everett; don't forget to read Chris Abani and Natasha Trethewey; and take some time to sink into the deep waters of Lucille Clifton, Audre Lorde and Yusef Komunyakaa. Make April count. Add your favorite poets to the list in the comments, or fill the space with a poem of your own. Evoke. Excite. Reveal. Stir. Boil. Ponder. Dare. Deliberate. Rage. Love. Desire. Howl. Be bold. Take the road not traveled. These writers did. Directed by Desire, by June Jordan (Copper Canyon Press) The legendary June Jordan was one of the first poets I knew, read and understood deep in my bones. Her book for young adults, His Own Where, holds a permanent place on my bookshelf, and Things That I Do in the Dark, her first collection of poems from 1977, saw me running to pick up my own pen in response to the power of her words: "These Poems" These poems they are things that I do in the dark reaching for you whoever you are and are you ready?

Why do we use adverbials?
We use adverbs to give more information about the verb.
We use adverbials of manner to say how something happens or how something is done:
The children were playing happily.
He was driving as fast as possible.
We use adverbials of place to say where something happens:
I saw him there.
We met in London.
We use adverbials of time to say when or how often something happens:
They start work at six thirty.
They usually go to work by bus.
We use adverbials of probability to show how certain we are about something.
- Perhaps the weather will be fine.
- He is certainly coming to the party.
Try these tasks to practice your use of adverbials.
Task 1
Task 2
Task 3
Hi, I want to thank all of you for the efforts you are making to pass on your knowledge. My question is about the order of adjectives and precisely about general and specific opinion adjectives. For examples, nice is general but intelligent is specific. This is confusing specially for learners. Where can we find more to learn about this topic? Thanks
Jeremy Bee replied on Taiwan Permalink
Hello challou!
Thanks for your kind words! In answer to your question, we actually have a page on adjective order. We're also expanding our grammar pages, so in the future, this will include more information and exercises.
Of course, the real problem for learners is learning to do this without thinking about it. This only comes with time, unfortunately, but doing plenty of reading and listening, so you get used to seeing the right word order, will help.

Hello there, I'd like to ask you a question. I'm a little confused about the place of the adverb "still" in a sentence. Sometimes "still" doesn't stick to the rules as any other adverb. For example "I still don't know" or "I still can't believe" or "I still haven't been to Russia". In these cases "still" is not after the auxiliary or the modal verb like any other adverb. Could you please clarify why it is like this? Can I say "I don't still know" or "I can't still believe" as it should be if I stick to the rules about the place of the adverbs? Thank you!
Jeremy Bee replied on Taiwan Permalink
Hello Emil123!
Welcome to LearnEnglish! You're right that still is a bit unusual - but we have a whole page on how to use it! Why not take a look, and see if that helps you?

I find your site really helpful. I am a visually impaired. I have got a question. It is like this
Q. the patient has since been discharged. Does it require any improvement? The options given are
a) ...has been since....
b) ...since has been....
c) ...is since discharged.
d) no improvement
Please help me. I have no one else to ask.
Hello Ratheesh,
This seems to be an exam question from the Engineering Services Examination and we don't really offer a service of answering that kind of question here. However, you're on the right page. 'Since' here is functioning as an adverb and it should go before the final part of the verb.
Best wishes,
The LearnEnglish Team
That´s obviously not what I meant...Why is this a probability adverbial? Shouldn't it be a manner one?

By Bill Wilson, Investor's Business Daily
If housing tends to lead economic recoveries, then we're in trouble. This marks the worst post-recession home-buying market since the Great Depression.
Nobel laureate Professor Vernon L. Smith, who delivered the keynote address at the Cato Institute's 30th Annual Monetary Conference on Nov. 15, noted how housing leads both recession and recoveries.
"In 11 of the past 14 recessions, you're having a decline in housing leading that recession. And all recoveries with the exception of — if you want to call this a recovery we're in — with the exception of this recovery, housing has always come back after a recession," said Smith.
He's right. New home sales are still about 66% below what they were in 2003, when prices were roughly the same as they are today.
That accounts for 368,000 new-home sales annualized in October, compared with more than 1.1 million in September 2003. The prior month's sales were revised down by 20,000, too.
In addition, some 10.4 million homeowners still owe $680 billion more on their mortgages than their homes are worth as home values are still 31% below their April 2006 highs. That is 22.3% of residential homes with mortgages upside down, reports CoreLogic.
In Nevada 59% of homes with mortgages are underwater, 43% in Florida, 36% in Georgia and 33% in Michigan. Those four states alone account for 34.1% of all negative equity mortgages nationwide.
Overall, negative equity keeps about one-fifth of homes nationwide — and nearly half in troubled regions — effectively off the market for those homeowners who simply cannot afford to sell. This drives sales downward, as the amount of willing sellers collapses.
But demand is also a problem.
With low savings and high unemployment, the number of buyers who can take advantage of relatively low prices and historically low interest rates is not accelerating. The unemployment rates in the aforementioned states are 11.5% in Nevada, 8.5% in Florida, 8.7% in Georgia and 9.1% in Michigan.
In short, it appears likely the housing market will not improve substantially until the jobs market gets better first, particularly in the areas where the housing downturn hit the hardest. New buyers would then be able to get into the surplus housing stock of foreclosed homes. Once that happens, prices would eventually begin to improve too.
The high unemployment rate alone explains why all of the "stimulus" and bailouts in the financial sector have been to so little effect in improving the market so far.

Hugo Barra, Google's vice president of Android product management, last night announced he's leaving the tech giant for a job with Chinese device maker Xiaomi.
In a post to his Google + profile, Barra disclosed he'll be joining his new company as a vice president of Xiaomi Global. As TechCrunch points out, he'll be reuniting with former Google colleagues like Lin Bin, who co-founded Xiaomi after working as vice president of Google China's Engineering Research Institute.
Xiaomi started out in 2010 and focuses on building smartphones. The team at Xiaomi also includes former employees of Microsoft and Motorola.
The latest valuation of Xiaomi put the fledgling phonemaker at $10 billion, equal to that of PC goliath Lenovo. Earlier this summer, Xiaomi introduced the Red Rice, a quad-core Android smartphone retailing for only $130. That strategy seems to be working for Xiaomi, which pulled in $2.15 billion in revenue for the first half of 2013.
Barra spent more than five years at Google, coming to the company in 2008 from Nuance Communications.

I love Clinique! Prior to using this, i was using Clinique BB Cream which was excellent too but since BB cream has very poor color selection, I thought of giving this a shot.
This is a great matt foundation. Note I live in New Delhi and have a 50 degree summer sun, so take my word when i say it's matt. It stays with you till your day ends, has medium coverage (therefore looks natural), a little can go a long way, it is light weight gel based and value for money!
Oil control formula is pretty good, it does not make my skin more oily than it already is, and hence i am not complaining. I only have to blot maybe twice a day which is normal, given the weather conditions i live in.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Best matte foundation I think I will ever try, and here is why.
I have normal to oily skin, pretty even with few spots that rejects every foundation that touches its surface, and living in hot, humid Florida does not help either. I'm not kidding. The only foundation(s) I've used so far that actually stay on my skin are MAC studio fix powder foundation in NC43, and this foundation in number 21. It has a unique gel-like formula, as if it is going to be thick on the face once applied, yet it is not. The foundation is lightweight, yet provides great, matte coverage that could be built up to a fuller coverage. I prefer to thin it out with an spf moisturizer or sunblock, since it does not have any spf in it unfortunately. Blotting will be needed after a couple hours wear, but that does not bother me. It does not transfer, and it fades beautifully after many hours of wear. I love this, and it truly is worth buying in my opinion! :D
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
My skin is oily but dehydrated. My t-zone is an oil slick, but I also tend to get flaky around the nose and forehead. I have dark acne scars and hyperpigmentation on my chin. Any active acne tends to be extremely red and my cheeks get very red/flushed as well. I am no longer extremely acne prone after changing my diet, but I do still break out if I eat certain things I shouldn't. I am Asian with very yellow/golden undertones. My colour in MAC's Studio Fix Fluid is NC35 and in the powder, C4.
Clinque Stay Matte comes in a flat, clear squeeze tube with a silver cap. The opening of the tube is nice because it doesn't just dribble out, and you can control how much product comes out. I adore the packaging, and I wish more foundations were packaged like this! There is a seal on the tube when you first purchase the product, and it comes in a small rectangular box with the typical, Clinique floral print on the outside. This comes in 20 different shades and retails for $29 at Sephora in Canada, which is a decent price compared to some higher end foundations.
The formula for Stay Matte is really interesting. It is a little thick, but has a gel-like consistency. The back of the tube says fragrance free, but it does have a mild scent that disappears when applied. I purchased this in the shade 08 - Golden Neutral. I figured it would be quite yellow, and it even looks pretty yellow in the tube, but it's not. On the plus side, it's not very pink either, so I don't mind it. It matches me decently, but it is a little lighter than my NC35 skintone. I apply this with either a buffing brush or flat top brush, and it applies beautifully. It feels good on the skin and dries down to a powdery, dry matte finish. While it does have a matte finish, it does NOT look flat or dead either. One of the negatives of this foundation is that it WILL accentuate dry spots. While I am incredibly oily, my skin is dehydrated, so I had to moisturize very well. It doesn't feel like you absolutely *need* to powder after this since it feels so dry afterwards, but I do on my t-zone because I'm oily.
The coverage is decent, depending on the amount/technique that you use. It says sheer to moderate coverage on the back, but I build this up to medium coverage. I just had to use concealer on my chin where I have very dark hyperpigmentation. I really wanted this to work for me, but the oil controlling properties are just not enough for my skin. This looks flawless and amazing when first applied. But, less than an hour later, my very oily nose will have already eaten through this foundation, and I work in an air conditioned office, sitting down all day! Unlike some foundations that don't budge when I blot them, this one transfers ON to the blotting paper! Not only that, but around the 4 hour mark, this starts looking extremely dry and patchy on my skin. I thought maybe I just didn't apply it correctly the first time so I kept testing this foundation over the course of a week with varying combinations of moisturizer/primer/powder and I could NOT get this to control oil or prevent it from getting patchy. Even when applied with a damp sponge or brush I get the same results. On the plus side, this does not oxidize on me, and photographs well due to the lack of SPF. It also did not break me out, and I remove this at night with a carrier oil followed by Spectro Jel cleanser.
I really wanted to love this foundation. The packaging is awesome, colour is decent, and the price is great. I also love that this has a fairly wide shade range. The claims on the box about it absorbing oil and being tested in 80% humidity were what sold me, but this just did not perform well on my oily skin. It's so surprising because it is such a dry/matte foundation at first, but this did not outperform any of my drugstore foundations. It managed to make my skin look super dry and patchy while not controlling oil at all. I will give 2 lippies to Clinique for their colour selection and superb packaging. This may work if you have truly oily skin, rather than dehydrated, so perhaps that's why it didn't work for me. I will be returning this to Sephora. My foundation hunt continues!

This is my go to product when I want a matte foundation with a (somewhat) limited budget. The coverage is excellent--I find that it nicely covers my dark circles even without any concealer. Unlike some other foundations, this product does not cause me to break out. It really is matte and remains matte for most of the day. If it starts to get oily, blotting paper or powder really helps.
Nevertheless, there are many unpleasant aspects of the product. I find that the product does not fair too well on blotchy skin; it really highlights blotchy skin and also pimples. The colour range for this product is limited and even the lightest colour is really dark. Occasionally I find that the product causes me to look 2-D, but like I said, it's occasional.
Overall, I would buy this product again. It's worth the money, and it delivers what it claims.

Ok Today is the first tday that I wear this BUT I like it so far I have not had to blot and it is past 10 am. I the color matches my skin and gives me a nice glow. It is not heavy on my skin and it was super easy to blend on my skin! There really isn't smell so do not worry. This year I have tried Benefit, NYX, and MUFE and none left me convinced. I hope this continues to work for my oily skin!!
I love this foundation because it gives nice coverage but THIS IS NOT OR DRY SKIN!! After having my child I noticed I was no longer oily and needed to purchase something that caters to dry skin and I bought CC Cream from/ Clinqiue. This is a great foundation just not for me.
I made an account on makeup alley just so I have a place to rave about this amazing product!! I have very acne prone combo skin and my chin is a huge trouble spot with acne and occasionally i'll get a pimple or two on the forehead.
LOVE- the tube, easy to come out and control how much you want.
very natural looking and you can pack to how matte you want coverage.
AMAZING coverage, I cant even begin..
the pricing is really fair to the quality you are getting.
the smell is really nice!
DONT LOVE: The amount you're getting doesn't feel like enough. Am I imagining it?
how you get this shine after you put it on.
To cover the shine I usually brush over with clinique's stay matte powder or the sephora brand powder. And any other trouble spots this foundation failed to cover i'll top with concealer. I apply product with a too faced powder brush!
But do get it! Its amazing <3
This product is great for summer. Basically it becomes my favourite product when my skin is CLEAR :D When I have a breakout I find I'm not brave enough to use it as I have to pack it on to cover the problem and then it looks 'cakey'. The lightest shade is a tad too orange for me, but it stays matte and in my opinion wears really well throughout the day.
It is fabulous for sensitive skin and feels comfortable on- it doesn't dry out the skin or cause more oil. It also doesn't transfer easily onto clothes which I like.
In general a good product, but not the BEST for me. I would buy it again but looking for something with a little more coverage.

This product gives a very full facial coverage, especially when used with clinique concealer. However, although it is oil-free allegedly, it seemed to make my skin even more oily than before using this product. I had to touch my face up with my powder almost every other hour. I would not suggest this product for someone with oily prone skin. Maybe those with dry skin instead.

Love this foundation. Feels incredibly light on my skin, does a decent job of covering up blemishes and evening my skintone, still looks like skin and best of all, it keeps the oilies at bay. :) You may need to blot after 6-7 hours of wear if you have extremely oily skin like I do, but I like how it still looks freshly applied even at the end of the day. Will definitely repurchase!

I love this product. It's the best liquid foundation I've tried and it covers fairly well. I only have to use concealer on major red spots. It works very well when it comes to keeping the oiliness of my face at bay. Although the price isn't the best (around $30), I think it's worth the money. It doesn't cause me breakouts and it lasts on my face practically the whole day, unless I touch my face. I just cover it with a cheap face powder from New York Color & it cuts down the shine even more. The bottle lasts me about 3 months and when it gets low, I cut the tube in half & wipe the makeup out with my brush to get the last of it out. I highly recommend this product!

Today, Rosenberg is regarded as one of the finest war poets of his generation, articulating the struggle between modernism and tradition.

Department Chair: Michelle C. Johnson
Professors: Deborah A. Abowitz, Linden F. Lewis, Carl Milofsky, Alexander T. Riley
Assistant Professors: Beth M. Duckles, Elizabeth Durden
The department encompasses two disciplines, sociology and anthropology, and offers separate majors in each.
Sociology is the study of human social action. It emphasizes an appreciation of human diversity, social inequality, and the processes that govern groups, organizations, communities, cultures, and nation states. Because these areas of study are integral to a liberal arts education, the department encourages students with diverse majors to take courses at all levels.
Among other things, a major in sociology may assist those interested in graduate work. It also offers a background for careers in law, journalism, government and international affairs, teaching, social work, and public service.
The Sociology Major
The major in sociology requires that students complete eight courses in the department, although students may count one anthropology course towards the major. No more than two 100-level courses may be counted towards the sociology major. Requirements are as follows:
- Two sociology core courses: SOCI 208 Methods of Social Research or SOCI 209 Analyzing the Social World and either SOCI 211 Classical Sociological Theory, or SOCI 212 Contemporary Sociological Theory. The department strongly recommends that core courses be taken as early as possible in a student's career in the major. Students should take at least one sociology course at the 100 or 200 level before taking SOCI 208 Methods of Social Research. SOCI 208 is not intended for first-year students or first-semester sophomores.
- Two courses in sociology at the 300 or 400 level, at least one of which is a seminar.
- Four other courses in sociology, or three courses in sociology and one in anthropology. Courses that are crosslisted as sociology and anthropology courses count as sociology courses and still allow sociology majors to take one course designated solely as an anthropology course. Students may elect to have GEOG 210 The Urban Condition count towards a major in sociology.
The major in sociology provides students with an overview of the discipline and exposure to a variety of specialty areas in the field. The general major is intended for students who wish a broad exposure to social issues and sociological concerns, either as part of their liberal arts education or in preparation for graduate study in the field.
The Culminating Experience (CE) requirement will be provided for general majors in the two courses taken at the 300 or 400 level. Honors theses and supervised independent study readings or research could also meet the CE requirement on determination of the department.
With the exception of Bucknell-sponsored programs like Bucknell en France, Bucknell in Barbados, Bucknell in London, or Bucknell in Northern Ireland, courses taken off campus normally may not substitute for one of the core course requirements or for the 300- or 400-level seminar courses. The department chair may allow an exception if provided with clear information about the character and quality of off-campus courses and if these courses adequately substitute for material that would be taught on campus. No more than two off-campus courses are ordinarily counted toward the major.
The minor in sociology requires five courses in sociology. Students may count no more than two 100-level courses toward the five courses required. Courses in anthropology may not be counted towards the sociology minor unless courses are listed as satisfying both sociology and anthropology major credit. No more than one off-campus course ordinarily counts toward the minor.
The department strongly encourages qualified majors to consider working for honors in sociology. Such students should consult in their junior year with one or more members of the faculty of the department to begin defining a research topic and writing a proposal. Normally, during the senior year, an honors student will enroll in SOCI 319 and, if agreed to by the academic adviser, a second semester in SOCI 320. The honors proposal is to be approved by the department chairperson and submitted to the Honors Council by mid-October of the senior year. Further information can be obtained from the student's academic adviser, the department chairperson, and from the Honors Council.

Believe it or not, there's very little information out there about calculating the amount of non-alcoholic beverages to buy for a reception. See below for this week's query.
A Hudson Valley mother-of-the-groom asks: "My son is getting married next week in a garden wedding/reception at the bride's parents' home in the Chicago suburbs. It won't be hot and sweltering, no alcohol will be served, and the reception will run about five or six hours. There will be about 190 guests drinking water, iced tea, lemonade, and coffee. Can you help us estimate how many beverages we should order?"

- " The foam is about 6inch so its nice and there is dim lighe beside your bed so as you can turn it on if the main light is off. I have met different nationalities that have great stories to tell. The only thing is that I guess they should fix is the lock on the shower which is located on the rear part. hehehe You can also cook since its near the market.. Downside is you want to go to Petronas . You need to take 2 mrt rides . If you valur your money then it is ok.. "

" hostel is nice with good staffs and facilities. beds are clean. but location is out of the world. do not go in the night there. "
Thank you for your review. However perhaps you had only stayed for 2 nights, you may not realized that we are a mere 2 train stop away from the Petronas Twin Towers. In addition, the Chow Kit area where we are is recommended for visit by many travel guides.

" NEVER STAY HERE. When I went to check the bed there was BLOOD ON THE SHEETS (also, the room was dingy). So I hopped on the internet and wow every hostel site except this one has a BEDBUG WARNING for this hostel, recently. So I told them I would not be staying 3 days. I offered to pay my first night as I was cancelling (even though I don't think you should have to in these circumstances). They declined and KEPT ALL MY CASH for all three nights. DO NOT GO HERE. EVER "
Our investigation revealed that there were already 3 other guests staying in the 4-bed Dorm you booked & none had complained of bed bugs. While there were cases of bed bugs in the past, we take immediate steps to eradicate whenever possible. We would also offer another bed in other rooms to in the meantime for guest comfort. This guest left the hostel within 1 hour without even spotting a single bug & had simply assumed there were bugs.

Thank you for your review. As stated on the info board, the Private Rooms are cleaned only upon request. We look forward to see you again soon!

" Really nice hostel with very friendly staff: On my last day, i had a bad sleep-in, they waked me up far beyond check-out time, but i didn't have to pay any additional fees. So cool! Thanks guys!! And sorry again! ) "
Thank you for taking time to leave us a review, ... and a good one. Hope to see you again on your way home.

Etzel Places Sixth At 157 Pounds; W&J's First Wrestling All-American Since 2002
WASHINGTON, Pa. -- Washington & Jefferson College junior wrestler Josh Etzel (Elizabeth, Pa./Elizabeth Forward) placed sixth in the 157-pound bracket Saturday at the 2013 NCAA Division III Championships at the Cedar Rapids Ice Arena.
Etzel became W&J's first wrestling All-American since Kevin DeJuliis '03 took seventh place in the 133-pound bracket of the 2002 NCAA Championships. The top eight finishers in each weight class receive All-America laurels.
Etzel's sixth-place finish is the best by a Washington & Jefferson College wrestler since W&J Athletic Hall of Famer Dave Krivus '83 placed sixth in the 150-pound bracket in 1983.
Only Krivus' second-place finish at 142 pounds in 1981 and Bob Daschbach's fifth-place showing at 118 pounds in 1974 topped Etzel's final placement in W&J's storied wrestling history. Etzel is just the sixth wrestler in school history to earn NCAA All-America laurels.
A two-time national qualifier and two-time Presidents' Athletic Conference champion, Etzel finished the national tournament with a 3-3 record and a 37-7 mark overall. His 37 victories set a school record for single-season wins, topping the 36 earned by DeJuliis (2003) and Taylor Potts '12 (2012).
Etzel, who now owns a 68-13 overall record as a President, received a victory medical forfeit in his first match of the day as top-seeded Elias Larson of Trine was unable to compete after suffering an injury Friday.
That victory advanced Etzel into a bout with second-seeded Chris Burdge of Centenary (N.J.). However, Burdge caught Etzel and pinned him in 2:23. In the fifth-place match, Cole Welter of Wartburg outlasted Etzel in overtime 5-3 (TB-2).
In addition to Etzel's All-America finish, freshman 125-pounder Jacob Spearman (Lancaster, Ohio/Lancaster) posted a 1-2 record on Friday. He was the first W&J freshman to win a match at the national championships under the tournament's current qualifying structure.
Etzel and Spearman became the Presidents' first duo to compete at the national championships since 2003 when DeJuliis (133) and Byron Johnson '04 (141) qualified.
Washington & Jefferson is led by Head Coach Tommy Prairie, who has produced three national qualifiers in just two seasons on campus.

Stocking up for the next time hard drive makers use natural calamities as pretense to inflate prices and still turn record financial results? It's Lian Li to the rescue. The aluminum chassis specialist unveiled PC-D8000, a massive full-ATX tower case with room for twenty hard drives. Measuring a gargantuan 405 x 628 x 572 mm (WxDxH), and weighing 26 lbs (13 kg), the PC-D8000 packs twenty 3.5-inch drive bays arranged in two stacks that span the entire height of the case in the front portion. In addition, the case packs six 5.25-inch bays, from which one features front-panel ports. Internally, the case features a detachable motherboard and expansion card tray, letting you install the motherboard and add-on cards outside the case. The tray supports HPTX form-factor motherboards (such as EVGA SR-X), and graphics cards as long as 410 mm (16-inch). The case provides room for two PSUs, letting you set up redundant power supply, or combine the power output of two units, by wiring them to different components. We spy as many as eighteen provisions for 140 mm fans. German retailer Alternate.de lists the PC-D8000 for pre-order, priced at 329 Euros. Source: Overclockers Ukraine
Sexy thing. If I would buy a chassi this size I think I'd rather take a Thermaltake Mozart though. I know they're for different crowds but still.
Get 6 and you can invite guests. Chairs is you least problem. Anyway I like the possibility to add a lot of slow running 140 mm fans. I will have one soon.
I like it. Plenty of room for watercooling inside may have to look into one of these. Been wanting to g dual psu as well.
Thermaltake?????? realllllllllly? gross I didn't think I would ever see the day someone would pick Thermaltake over Lian Li. the internet is crazy these days, just crazy. Mountain Mods or Case Labs imo but I do like it... just not for me, I wouldn't know where to put a computer that big. nor would I have the money to fill a case that big properly.
Don't take it personally, my experience with Thermaltake isn't good, all the cases I have seen and used personally are complete junk plastic and steel While all the Lian Li cases are brush alum joy of bliss
Well, you could always just put an AC unit inside the thing to keep it cool.. Maybe a freezer and just open the doors inside.. w/e...
$600... that's all? CaseLabs and Mountain Mods cases are that + some. if you add anything to it there cases can be close to $1000+ It is a small market and really how many people buy these cases? and we they do they like to be able to change features... reason I like Mountain Mods so much, that and they are just down the road from me. I order a part and they have driven it to me within the next hour or two. hehe
Agreed, Case Labs are much more enthusiast oriented, and I'm sure are a higher quality. For such a large chassis, this thing isn't set up to accommodate loops very well at all.
The lack of accommodations is what I like were is the fun in a case mod if everything just bolts right in.

Your mission Mr. Phelps, should you choose to accept it, is to ascend the sweeping gray, green, and orange face to the left of Interstellar Overdrive. This mission is wrought with dead-ends, danger, and misery for the few who dare attempt the Impossible. Your entry exam shall be slab climbing that is slightly overhung which will immediately deposit you into the crux; survive the mental and physical torture of the next two bolts and you might just breathe the rarefied air of the upper headwall. Don't breathe too easy though, as traps and tricks are waiting to spit you back to the realm of mere mortals. Should you fail, we will disavow any knowledge of you and your mission.
Mission Impossible is located on the far right side of Wall of the Nineties, right of the two obvious cracks, .30-06 and Roadrunner, and left of Interstellar Overdrive.
9 bolts - 2 bolt anchor over the lip with chains. Stick clip bolt 1. Be careful lowering as well, I think you'll end up about 5 feet off the ledge, and will need to be pulled back in. A 60m will work, knot your ends!
Open Project: This thing is hard, if you're gunning for it go get it! Tell your friends and spread the word, one of the hardest lines in Clear Creek is open for all to try!! So, who's gonna accept the mission?!
I'm putting my money on jstar, if he is still around these parts.
Thanks, Jay!!! Although it may take the rest of my natural life to climb to the 1st bolt on this line having rapped this line before, I can vouch for is classic location and quality of stone. Can't wait to try it (on TR :-). Such a fantastic line should bring them in, man!! Can't wait to see it go!! Bolting this line is like fishing for hardmen!!! Good luck on this classic!!!!!!! Looks so gooooooddddd!!!!!!!!!
I predict this will be the new king line of Clear Creek. Time to start training, people, because this one has holds and will go down! The Front Range is lucky to have your vision and motivation for putting up new routes. A beautiful line, Jay!
Finally got a chance to try this rig yesterday. It's a cool line for sure. Could still use a little more cleaning, maybe move a bolt or two, but for the most part it's bomber and ready to go. I did all of the moves through the route but was somewhat stumped at the last bolt... the sun was setting and my patient belayer was losing her patience (understandably). Very hard move up top off an improbable sloper, but I suppose I could have missed something. Seems like putting it together will certainly be 8c / +(?). Very unique style! nice route. I'd return but I'm leaving the country in a few days and gotta wrap some other stuff up. I'd predict that D. Woods will tear through this thing quickly. Great vision!
Right on, Jonathan, thanks! I'm excited this is getting some attention and coming together! I'm more than happy to move any bolts you think are necessary, just let me know the new locations if you already have a good idea where they should go (I'm guessing bolt 5 needs to go right of the flat crimp). I'm glad this thing isn't getting cobwebbed and waiting years for me to do it! Can't wait to see some climbing go down, looks (and feels) crazy up there. I'm excited to see what you come up with! I can't believe it might be as hard as I originally thought either. Man, I'm psyched!!
The mission has been accomplished! I've heard that Daniel Woods climbed Mission Impossible earlier today - Congratulations, Daniel, nice work!
Yeah!! Way to go, Daniel! www.climbing.com/news/hotflashes/woods_new_514d_in_clear_cre>>>
Wow, how exciting! Super impressive, that thing looks craaaazy. Lots of hard stuff going down finally in CCC---- will the Double Stout be next?!?! :)

Beautiful and functional
We purchased 4 drink sconces a couple of weeks ago and have only had them installed for about a week, but we already love them. The sconces have already drawn compliments from guests, too. By:tailfins , Homeowner (New York, NY)
nice and clean
As some buyers have already mentioned, it is smaller than you would imagine from the pictures. But it has beautiful shape and super clean look. It gives a lot of light. Love it. By:Beata , Homeowner (San Francisco Bay Area)
very pretty but smaller than one would expect
i think this is a beautiful design, however, it only works with a back plate which i think detracts from the overall look. the pictures of the sconce are not shown with the plate. i bought white sconces and the chrome backing does not really go with the rest of the room. also, they are surprisingly small, and, definitely look much better as up-lights. By:dax , Designer (ny ny )
sleek and well made
Once again, the Italians know how design a beautiful product. We have two of these drink sconces in our kitchen/eating area. They are cool, unusual, make me think of happy times with a glass of wine, and the construction is solid. They were a little more than I was planning on spending - but I am happy I went for it.
