2014 NHRA: 60th Annual Chevrolet Performance U.S. Nationals Most Iconic Moments - Garlits Shaves His Beard Following Triumphant 1967 Win
Posted by: newsla on Jun 11, 2014 - 01:48 PM
2014 NHRA: 60th Annual Chevrolet Performance U.S. Nationals Most Iconic Moments - Garlits Shaves His Beard Following Triumphant 1967 Win
It was on this exact date in 1967, when NHRA Top Fuel great âBig Daddyâ Don Garlits had suffered a stunning setback at the NHRA Springnationals in Bristol, Tenn. After already posting a devastating DNQ at the season-opening Winternationals, one of the most successful drivers on the circuit also failed to qualify for the seasonâs second race.
Garlits made a vow that day. Since many of his peers in the category were already running consistent performances in the six-second zone, the driver of the famed Swamp Rat dragster said he wouldnât shave his beard until he was able to clock a six-second time himself.
This proclamation set the stage for one of the most memorable moments in the history of the Chevrolet Performance U.S. Nationals at Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis, and will resonate again this year as part of a series of special tributes that will highlight the 60th edition of the âBig Go,â Aug. 27-Sept. 1.
During the weeks leading up to the running of the worldâs most prestigious drag race, NHRA will unveil six of the most iconic moments in the history of the event that will remember the very heroes who made them, including Garlits, whose presentation will conclude with a fitting nod.
In 1967 at Indy, Garlits, with a full beard covering his face by then, unveiled a brand new race car at the event. Garlits posted low 7.06 and 7.03-second times to win early rounds over Mike Sorokin and Tom McEwen. Paired in the much-anticipated final round against legendary West Coast match racer James Warren, who had already claimed a round-win with a 6.94-second time earlier in the day, Garlits saved his best performance for last when he unleashed an amazing 6.77-second run at more than 220 mph to win the race.
In a triumphant scene, Garlits did his winnerâs interview with ABC Wide World of Sports pit reporter Bill Flemming and then climbed atop his tow vehicle and broke out the shaving cream and razor with a mob scene of cheering fans surrounding him.
âIt was a magical moment, a magical run,â Garlits has said. âIt was way better than winning my first Indy title in 1964. Getting the chance to prove to everybody that I wasnât washed up made it my biggest win ever.â
One of several legends scheduled to appear at the event, Garlits has made the same vow today, June 11, 2014, and will once again begin growing his beard. He will then reenact the special moment and shave his beard in front of the fans on Sunday, Aug. 31st, along with a special 45-minute presentation that all Sunday ticket holders can be part of.
As part of the celebration of this iconic moment in U.S. Nationals history, NHRA also encourages fans to #GrowLikeGarlits and avoid shaving or cutting their hair until the 60th anniversary Chevrolet Performance U.S. Nationals. Fans are encouraged to show their progress and post pictures on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram using #GrowLikeGarlits. At the event, barbers and hairdressers will be on-site to give shaves and haircuts and a portion of the proceeds will be donated to charity.
The most historic and tradition-rich event in the NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series, the Chevrolet Performance U.S. Nationals has been contested annually since 1955.
The milestone 60th installment of the Labor Day weekend drag racing spectacular will feature more than 1,000 competitors in 12 categories during the event. The 18th of 24 events in the NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series is also the final event in the regular season. Shawn Langdon (Top Fuel); Robert Hight (Funny Car); Mike Edwards (Pro Stock); and John Hall (Pro Stock Motorcycle) were last yearâs winners of the race that will once again be televised by ESPN2 in more than 10 hours of coverage.
On the racetrack, the 60th anniversary Chevrolet Performance U.S. Nationals will feature intense side-by-side racing at more than 320 mph, as drivers in Top Fuel, Funny Car, Pro Stock and Pro Stock Motorcycle compete for their share of the $2 million purse and battle for important world championship points. The race is the final regular season stop for the circuit and will establish the top 10 fields for the Mello Yello Countdown to the Championship playoffs. Perhaps more importantly, drivers will compete to earn a permanent spot in NHRA history, as a Chevrolet Performance U.S. Nationals winner.
The race will also showcase the Traxxas Nitro Shootout, where the top drivers in Top Fuel and Funny Car will race for $100,000 bonuses, as well as the annual Mopar HEMI Challenge for Super Stock cars and thrilling competition in both the Lucas Oil Series and Pro Mod Series.
In addition, the event will feature fan-favorite Cacklefests, vintage racecars on display in the Hot Rod Junction, autograph sessions with many of the legends of the sport, a Monday edition of the SealMaster NHRA Track Walk, fireworks displays, and much more.

Museums Trust collection storage meets high standards
Hawke's Bay Museums Trust collection storage meets high standards of care.
The Hawke's Bay Museums Trust
held its first meeting of the year on Monday 10th
3.30pm. The Trustees could not ignore the recent media attention regarding collection storage.
As guardians of the collection on behalf of the people of Hawke's Bay the Trust is charged with ensuring proper care of the collection today and for the future.
The Trustees are confident that the storage and standard of care of this, the largest and most important of the NZ regional collections, meets very high levels of professional care. Over the last few years the packaging of the collection has been upgraded to meet museum standards for disaster planning and risk management particularly as it relates to earthquakes. As a consequence of this higher level of protection the bulk of the collection has increased.
At the same time the Trust's collections have grown since the Museum closed in 2010 this has also contributed to the current situation.
The Chair of the Trust Barbara Arnott said "a good analogy is a pair of shoes packed in a shoe box rather than lying in the bottom of the wardrobe will take up more room but be better cared for." This bulk has necessitated greater storage needs for the same size collection.
"The figures currently circulating are inaccurate and irrelevant to the maintenance of Hawke's Bays treasures. All of Hawke's Bay should be proud of the strength of this important collection and the high standards of care and attention it receives" said Barbara Arnott.
The Trust is not concerned that the collection is to be stored over two sites. Museums throughout New Zealand and the rest of the world maintain offsite stores and in many cases it is considered best practice as it inherently reduces collection risk.
Parts of the collection were never intended to be stored in the new MTG building.
Nor is there any consideration of returning items to donors as a method of making space. The collection is currently well housed and well cared for, in an environment capable of meeting current and future needs.
The Trust is proud of its association with the high standards of the professional staff of MTG Hawke's Bay, who have managed the collection on the Trust's behalf through the design and development phases of the current project. It supports MTG Hawke's Bay staff in their work on the Trust's behalf.

The following is a "Movie" for the television series Big Time Rush (also known as BTR), starring Kendall Schmidt, James Maslow, Carlos Pena Jr., and Logan Henderson, and co-starring Ciara Bravo, Tanya Chisholm, and Stephen Kramer Glickman. As of January 28, 2012, a total of 49 episodes have aired consisting of the first and second season. So far, some episodes of Season 2 have not aired on YTV in Canada.
And Now it is A Hit Movie.
Big Time Rush is going to their first stop on their new Big Time Rush All Over The World Tour. Carlos has a spy dream about him and the guys rescueing a princess. He feels like it could come true but the guys confess him not. Landed at the airport, an M16 agent runs into the guys who is followed by Brittish agents. He switches up Kendall's backpack with the same exact backpack he's holding, so it's out of the hands of the secret agents. Soon, they try to get the backpack in hands when BTR is in their hotel. We find out that Kendall's backpack contains an evil gravitational device. When the secret agents run into their hotel room, the guys team up with Penny Lane, daughter of the kipnapped M16 agent by the bad guy, Atticus Moon. Inside her spy-van they promise to help her save her dad but still save their own world tour. Meanwhile, Katie tries to get her mom to date the royal Duke. After Ms. Knight discovers royalty's life she's in. The guys plan a meeting with Moon and quickly do their soundcheck. The world tour director wants to cancel the tour, Gustavo and Kelly try to save it but secret agents capture them to tell them what they know about BTR because everyone thinks they want to take over the world. The guys have their meeting with Moon, but escape along with Penny's dad and still holding the backpack. He plans how he's going to take down Moon but gets shot by a knock-out dart that Logan accidentally shoots. Meanwhile, Katie finds out that the royal Duke works for a toilet place. She makes a plan to not let her mom date him, but gets kidnapped by Moons spies. After getting a message form Moon, they find out they don't only need to save Katie, but also the world. Carlos tells the guys and Penny about how they saved the princess in their dream, and wearing tuxedo's they bust into Moon's castle in Penny's spy van. After taking down Moon and saving the world, the Brittish government help them save their world tour by entering in a helicopter. They kick off their world tour with 'Hard Day's Night,' followed by a their hit song Elevate. The movie ends with the guys leaving with Penny and her dad in the spy-van.
Main cast
- → Main article: List of Big Time Rush characters.
- Kendall Knight (Kendall Schmidt) - Kendall is the "proclaimed leader" of the group and is normal, understandable, and smart. According to Kelly in Big Time Audition, Kendall is tall, blond, and all eyebrows. Gustavo chose Kendall as his singer in Big Time Audition, but Kendall talked Gustavo into letting him, James, Carlos, and Logan become a singing group so he wouldn't have to leave his friends behind. Kendall was supposed to be the cliché bad boy of the band in the episode Big Time Bad Boy, but refused to succumb to a stereotype that didn't fit him (or any of the boys, for that matter). For example, in the episode Big Time Fever, Kendall is the only one in the band without "Hollywood Fever" because he is always a normal kid, and he is also the one who makes sure the guys remembers where their roots were when they had all changed from "Hollywood Fever" -- which they find out is actually just a term for home sickness. He is also known for himself ending up in awkward situations. For example, in the episode "Big Time Sparks" he would be caught with Jordin Sparks on all of the dates he sets up with Jo. In Big Time Concert, he is described as "The Complete Package", strong-headed, and hard to control. Kendall is dating Jo and they had their first kiss in "Big Time Concert."
- James Diamond (James Maslow) - James is the pretty boy of the group who originally wanted to be a popstar. He is apparently obsessed with his hair and good looks and always keeps his lucky comb in his jacket and takes personal head shots of himself. According to Carlos in the episode Big Time Love Song, James always gets the girls: he declares himself the "pretty one." In the episode Big Time Dance James accidentally asks out several girls to the school dance in an attempt to help Logan ask Camille to the dance. All of the girls said they'd go with him. James is upset when Griffin's daughter Mercedes sequentially picks everyone else in the band to be her boyfriend (and summarily dumps each one shortly thereafter) but doesn't ever pick him. But after wards, he feels better when she admits she doesn't date anyone prettier than her. James is obsessed with bandanas and always suggests wearing them, as seen in Big Time Crib. As a result of his obsession, he has an alter ego called "Bandana Man", also seen in Big Time Crib; the costume consists of wrapping himself in several purple bandanas. According to various episodes, he thinks he is "the face", but this lessens after Big Time Jobs, in which when he fails a modeling job, he says to Katie (his assistant manager) in Minnesota he was "the face", and that he is now a "handsome grain of sand on an extremely beautiful beach". He, alongside Carlos, strives to be the "Hollywood Super Party King of Hollywood", shown in Big Time Party. He is shown to get nervous before auditions (as seen in Big Time Audition when he tried stalling his audition, and in Big Time Break when he claimed to have butterflies in his stomach right before his movie audition) In Big Time Concert, he is described as extra pretty, having a solid voice, and being "driven beyond belief".
- Carlos Garcia (Carlos Pena Jr.) - Carlos is the jokester of them all and always wears his hockey helmet. His dad is a cop who takes his job seriously and has gone through sensitivity training nine times. Carlos has never had a real girlfriend, although Mercedes Griffin forced him to be one of her short-lived "boyfriends" in the episode Big Time Demos. Carlos seems to be very easygoing, and whenever the others start to get into a fight, he suggests thinking "happy thoughts about kittens", as seen in Big Time Audition. He strives to be, alongside James, the "Hollywood Super Party King of Hollywood", as shown in Big Time Party. Carlos also thinks being carried by Freight Train, Gustavo's huge new bodyguard, is "kinda fun." In Big Time Concert he is described as energetic, a good dancer, and "wearing a helmet for no apparent reason".
- Logan Mitchell (Logan Henderson) - Logan is the sensible one in the group. He is also the smart one of the group but panics under pressure. Whenever the others are doing something bad and they tell him to join them, he always says "I've gotta get new friends", as in the episode Big Time Audition, but still joins them afterward. Logan seems to like Camille, an actress also living at the Palm Woods. It was initially unclear if Logan knew about Camille's deep crush on him, but when she kissed him pretending it was for an audition for One Tree Hill, he said he was pleasantly surprised. Logan returned her crush, Camille being quick to forgive him when he attempted to be with her and Mercedes Griffin at the same party (Mercedes having forced him to be one of her short-lived "boyfriends", just as she had with Kendall and Carlos). When they had a school dance, Logan's first choice for a date was Camille. She, however, stated that she wished to be asked in a more memorable way. After several failed attempts, Logan showed up on a "horse" (Kendall and James in costume), and she finally agreed to be his date to the dance. Logan has a learner's permit. He is the most level-headed and realistic of the four and always sees the downside to the others' schemes. In Big Time Concert, he is described as "the smart one", and indecisive. It's also stated in 'Big Time Mansion', that he like cats. In Big Time Concert, Logan said that he wanted to be a doctor on the show.
- Katie Knight (Ciara Bravo) is Kendall's precious little sister who sometimes helps the boys out. For example, in Big Time Break, when Kendall is the only one (out of the whole band) that still is determined to win the affection of a girl named Jo, Katie found out Jo was lying about having a boyfriend when she overheard a phone call between Jo and her mother. Katie revealed this to Kendall and helped him get a date with Jo. After the events in episode Big Time Dance, to Jo's surprise, Kendall revealed he thought that they were together, and now they are indeed a couple. Katie is always shown to have more tricks up her sleeve than her mother, who is portrayed as being very naive with regard to Hollywood machinations. Katie is bossy, clever and tricky, which is a big help when getting involved in the boys' plans. She is like Megan from Drake and Josh in many ways.
- Mrs. Knight (Challen Cates) is the mother of Kendall and his little sister, Katie. She is a very nice mother who doesn't get mad that easily (shown in Big Time Audition) and as shown in Big Time Dance, is sensitive about dating.
- Gustavo Rocque (Stephen Kramer Glickman) - Gustavo Rocque is a world-renowned record producer who meets the boys in Minnesota and offers Kendall a chance to come to Los Angeles with him, when Kendall turns the table around and convinces him to bring the others too. Gustavo was previously successful but hasn't had a hit in nine years, and believes the boys are his ticket back to the top. He is cliché, mean and always has a frown on his face while the boys are performing, even when he likes the song. In the episode Big Time Crib, he states that "All talent, are dogs" and calls them that; he also calls the boys "monkey dogs." Even so, when he tells the boys that a song wasn't as good as he wanted it to be, they always manage to call his bluff. He admits to liking the boys after dealing with an absolutely perfect boy band that he hated because they were so perfect, despite in Big Time Video, he briefly whispers to himself, "I hate those dogs" when they steal the set of their video for theirs. When the boys were house-sitting his mansion, they wrecked the house and had Kendall's mom clean it up (but not fully). Gustavo then accidentally wrecks his own house, but nevertheless tells the boys he likes them afterwards. Gustavo is seen to have serious anger issues and his blood pressure can skyrocket. An example is in Big Time Audition when he breaks a tea cup to pieces and destroys a few things outside after Kendall rejects his first offer.

InnerWorkings was founded in late 2002 by a group of us who were tired with the old training formulas that were being thrown at developers. It was really time for something new, practice-based, and embedded in Visual Studio.
We launched our new product in early 2003. It was invigorating to see developers adopting our new methodology and learning through practice.
InnerWorkings received another welcome boost in 2003. We became a Gold-certified Microsoft partner and joined the Visual Studio Industry Partner (VSIP) program. What's more, we received several prestigious software awards including "New Company of the Year" from the Irish Software Association.
Further encouraging news arrived in early 2004. We completed our Series A funding round to the tune of $8.8M with Benchmark Capital Europe and Mohr Davidow Ventures. Moreover large organizations began deploying our product across their distributed software development teams. By 2007, our catalog included over 450 hours of .NET coding challenges for Visual Basic and C# developers (and it's still growing).

Fasano plans public hearings on Progress Energy rate hike
UPDATE: Progress Energy officials went sort of nuclear over Fasano's announcement. A spokeswoman noted Friday that the hearings are under the Public Service Commission and more importantly to them, set up to discuss the utility's base rate increase -- not nuclear costs. To which Fasano aide Greg Giordano said: That's their opinion.
Fasano wants residents to speak up about the nuclear-related rate increase, and customers should be free speak their mind at hearings, said Giordano, who nonetheless sent out an "updated" news release making the distinctions. He acknowledged getting
a complaint from the PSC over the wording of the release, which Fasano intends to reissue repeatedly to draw attention to the public hearings.
State Sen. Mike Fasano, no fan of Progress Energy's rate hike for its proposed nuclear plant, has announced public hearings to debate the utility company's plan. The New Port Richey Republican did vote for the 2006 law allowing the company to charge customers for the project years before it cranks up. He now regrets it.
"I encourage everyone who is a customer of Progress Energy to come out express their concern with what could be a system wide rate increase of nearly half a billion dollars," Fasano said in a news release today. "The impact on each customer is estimated to be in the range of $25 to $30 per month. These are not dollars that can saved by reducing energy consumption, these are dollars that will be added to each monthly bill as a flat charge."
Giordano called Friday afternoon to clarify Fasano's statement, saying the $25 to $30 refers to the base rate increase and the nuclear project.
The state's Public Service Commission will have a full rate hearing in September on Progress Energy's request.

Base Rates
According to a piece in IHE, Democrats in Congress are considering establishing penalties for colleges that increase tuition by too high a percentage over any three-year period.
To illustrate why this is a painfully stupid idea, I'll trot out some math. Assume 3 percent annual inflation, which is probably in the ballpark. The cap is twice the inflation rate, or 6 percent per year.
Snooty U: $40,000 this year, 42,000 next year, 44,000 the following year – 10 percent over two years; hunky-dory, no problem.
Struggling CC: $3,000 this year, 3,200 next year, 3,400 the following year – 13 percent over two years; violation.
So Snooty U can go up by $4,000 without penalty, but if Struggling CC goes up by one-tenth of that, it's considered profligate. We uppity cc's need to be put in our place. It sure is a good thing we can heat our buildings for free! Oh, wait...
Snooty U is rewarded for being too expensive in the first place, and Struggling CC is punished for being too affordable. This, in the name of affordability.
(In this context, Gov. Patrick's plan for free tuition at cc's in Massachusetts gets even scarier. What's six percent of nothing? Prepare for the ax, folks...)
The net effect over time, obviously, will be that the wealthiest schools will continue to pull away from the rest, and the schools that are actually open to regular people will erode. It isn't that hard to see. This is especially true when you consider that the most expensive colleges and universities typically have larger endowments, and depend less on tuition for revenue.
Clearly, the only rational course of action for cc's is to pass enormous tuition increases while we still can. Double or triple them now, so the base rates will give us reasonable room to move. It's only a holding action, obviously, but it might buy enough time to try to get a more intelligent bill passed.
In the spirit of constructive criticism, I'll suggest a few alternatives:
Get the skyrocketing cost of health insurance under control, since that's driving much of the tuition increases anyway. Move to universal single-payer and be done with it. Make those parasites at HMO's find productive work. Get our percentage of GDP devoted to health care down to, say, Sweden's, and invest the resulting hundreds of billions per year in almost anything else. I mean, sheesh.
Instead of a percentage cap, go with a dollar figure cap. Nobody can raise tuition by more than, say, $1000 a year for a full-time student. We never have, so that's fine, but the Cornells of the world might start to sweat a little. A little progressivity might be refreshing.
Some recognition of the connection between state aid levels and tuition would be helpful. Many scholars are convinced of an important link between 'cause' and 'effect.'
Look at higher ed as a coherent system, rather than a constellation of independent actors. Does it make sense to starve out the Nursing programs at community colleges, while providing subsidies for the Whiffenpoofs? I think not. Then again, I'm not in Congress.
For that matter, if you want to save a bundle on remedial ed, improve the *#%)%&# high schools. Let us teach college level courses in college. That might help...
Higher ed is caught in a weird bind. Our costs are climbing rapidly, even as we've spent decades (at least in the frugal lower echelons) hollowing-out the full-time faculty. We're hitting the limits of the "adjuncts will save us" strategy, especially when salary and benefits savings evaporate when student attrition levels climb. Yet parents and the public are -- rightly -- concerned about tuition levels.
In this, as in so many things, a basic failure to define our terms is leading to stupid and counter-productive decision-making. If, say, NYU raises its tuition "too much," why punish CUNY? If the Ivy League has intimidatingly-high sticker prices, why crack down on community colleges? And hasn't anybody in Congress heard of 'base rates'?
I know, I know, Congress is bad at math. But this is really appalling, even for them. I'd offer to run some remedial math courses for them, but I don't have the budget for it...
CCs have always been the red-headed stepchild and always will be. I use the immigration bill as an example, and it just hit me; CCs are the immigrants of the higher ed system! We've come along lately to do the nation's dirty work. We educate the poor, the less affluent, the average. More and more state unis are becoming selective, so someone has to educate the average citizen. We help them better themselves finacially. We are asked to do in 18 months what the public schools couldn't do in 12 years (bless their hearts, they have troubles enough without us jumping on them too!).
We don't have multi-million dollar contracts with Nike nor huge arenas with Verizon Wireless. We aren't sexy! But we educate far more people, add to the GNP with more tax-paying citizens, and do it all on far less money.
In my neck of the woods, the state system of unis (AND THE PRIVATES!) got a raw dollar increase in state support while the CCs got a raw dollar decrease!!! Giving more money to the private colleges in the state (which are supposed to eschew state funding) just blows my mind! I'd look for a state friendlier to the CCs but I don't think it exists ;-(
I teach my students that college is more expensive than it was "back in the dark ages" (late 1970s) when I attended, but that they are getting a different product (wi-fi in all the buildings, state-of-the-art classrooms, AIR CONDITIONING, etc.). All of these changes have been consumer-driven, as far as I can tell. Students want this stuff, and so, to remain competitive, colleges have to offer this stuff.
So if this is all market-based, then why should Congress get involved to cap tuition increases?? As far as I'm concerned, that is pandering.
You give a 5% increase to the data entry person making $25,000 per year and he walks away with a little more than $100 more per month. That's $25 extra per week. After taxes, you might be able to buy a cheese pizza with your increase.
But, heaven forbid you should want to give a low level person a higher increase.
AA Breakdown Cover
Private schools pay the same price for computers and electricity as everyone else, so why not a fixed dollar limit on cost increases?
Our college uses the same logic for faculty pay raises, with part distributed as an equal dollar amount and part as a percentage increase.

Questionings are an effective instrument for the procurement of control data in all ranges managements. The evaluation of the determined of the foreign picture of customers, suppliers, competitors or coworkers, in a collection, makes the improvement or correction of the adjustment for the corresponding to real market conditions possible of the business activity, product range as well as the strategic resources employment - also within the range the "human resources".
The detailed knowledge of customer opinions and current paintings conveying a special atmosphere of Geschaeftspartnern places an inestimable value as well as a substantial competition advantage. The special sensitivity of this instrument causes a professional conception and execution: Even unique, small errors can lead to a substantial acceptance and confidence loss on sides of the asked ones. A confidence loss was disqualifiziert meant generally that the raised are more usable data hardly and the instrument of the questioning by the "collective memory" staff on long time.
One ' ' ' coworker questioning ' ' ' is the main kind, qualitative data of to raise Mitarbeitern of an enterprise. It concerns it a sensitive personnel-economical instrument, which can be used to different objectives. Typically is personnel CONTROLLERS merged into such a project, if not even as projects manager actively.
The course of project of one coworker questioning Edit
One can divide phases for the introduction of a coworker questioning roughly in 9 phases:
- phase 1 - objective and project organization (Kick off): objective, target group regulation, project organization definition of tuning and report ways
- phase 2 - conception : environment analysis, medium choice, kind and range of the questioning, communication concept, systematic development of a Fragenportfolios
- phase 3 - organization : logistics, Projektcontrolling
- phase 4 - execution : questioning execution, Hotline, return (- ratio)
- phase 5 - evaluation : optically and contentwise high-quality evaluation, result analysis
- phase 6 - result presentation : target group oriented result representation, presentation of result meetings, execution of process-accompanying communication measures, support during the definition of massnahmenpaketen
- phase 7 - Follow UP process : initiation and company of organizational development processes on basis of the questioning results
- phase 8 - evaluation of the questioning : progress control of the questioning process as quality management instrument
- phase 9 - institutionalizing : regular, standardized repetition of the questioning process (feedback model) historical regarded the at that time progressive questionings of the collaboration were accomplished first according to the method "fever of measuring": asking - reading off - evaluating - end .
Nowadays a more or less complex discrete event type process is usually initiated, on which the emphasis of the project is. The questioning is then only more means for the purpose; their results are basis for often extensive improvement processes. Consistently converted and without wrong promises so a regularly accomplished coworker questioning can be established as instrument for the increase creation of value in the enterprise on all level. The staff feels seriously taken by the conversions of the discrete event type processes.
The enterprise profits several times: On the one hand by one expiration optimization and supplementing by the increased motivation the coworker. Besides has Personalcontrolling valide and current qualitative data, whose collection would be hardly representable over other methods.
employment agreement over the execution of coworker questionings Edit
the contentwise questions of a coworker questioning are unterscheidlich in each enterprise and by an employment agreement with the work council are specified. In enterprises, which do not have a work council, the quality management often specifies the questions of a coworker questioning about the quality goals. Ebeno is regulated beside the questionnaire catalog the regular, usually annual execution of the coworker questioning - likewise so that the work council gets the results of each Fuerhungskraft just as mediated. Besides it is made certain that the coworker questioning is accomplished annonym, i.e. only in departments with more than 5 coworkers takes place.
contentwise arrangement of the questions of the coworker questionings Edit
the contentwise questions and their number mostly lies between 30 and 80 questions, so that EN coworkers can respond within a half hour the questionnaire. There is nevertheless a common schnittmenge of inhaltichen question ranges: The 33 AUDI peat rising up of the 9 work areas EFQM is mostly contained in a coworker questioning. The nine question ranges read (with Unterfragen, see EFQM):
- How much are they content with the guidance authority of their Leadership?
- How clear are the goals of their department?
- How are do they zuufrieden with their personal further training?
- How content are they with communication within their enterprise- do they get all information they need to do their work?
- How much influence do they have on improving their Abreitsablaeufen to?
- How strongly does their department pay attention to the Zufriedneheit of their customers?
- How much are they content with the conversion from measures to the Stiegerung of the coworker satisfaction inihrem range?
- How much are they content with the social-social commitment of their Unternhemens?
- How very much them are the results, success and profit of the enterprise well-known? Further questions can follow, the nine core ranges of the EFQM concept are however in each coworker questioning technically to be considered.

Is this the same Ensign Williams mentioned in the "A Matter of Perspective" Summary, Teaser? --Alan del Beccio 01:35, 9 Aug 2005 (UTC)
- No, that was a reference to a male officer in the painting class with Picard and a woman Data identified as Lieutenant Wright. – Enterprise1981 21:01, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
Thanks, but I wrote that 2 years ago, and it is of course much more obvious now than it was during the sites fledgling years. --Alan 01:18, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
I suggest we move her to Williams (Tactical officer) and move the male ensign to Williams (ensign). He is the only one of the two verbally called an ensign. I understand that the original naming came when we had nothing better to disambig the two. --LauraCC (talk) 18:01, June 2, 2016 (UTC)

"The gift shall be gold silver and copper; turquoise wool, purple wool and scarlet wool" Exodus 25:3
Perhaps the greatest conundrum of sidrah Terumah is the seeming incongruity of sliding from sublime revelation to a collection of construction materials. Israel emerged from Egypt, met God at Sinai and committed itself to the Covenant. Mishpatim ends with Moses re-entering the fiery realm where God's Presence could be grasped.
Terumah sets about the construction of the Tabernacle. In place of grandiose vision, we encounter an earthy array of metals and cloths, planks and sockets. For Nachmanides, the change of tone expresses a shift of modality as we leave the high of revelation and focus on taking that experience with us via the Mishkan. Inspirational highs help point the way for us; but they evaporate quickly and cannot be recaptured without painful attention to detailed construction.
A second, midrashic approach suggests that Terumah is presented out of chronological order. The Tabernacle served as an antidote to the Golden Calf. Romantic, ecstastic relationship has been violated; now we explore plan B, the Tabernacle. But why violate chronology?
Avivah Gottlieb Zornberg suggests that the Torah teaches us the Tabernacle was always planned, because our pagan passions are always lurking. Man desires tangible contact with God as a mammal yearns for physical contact. First Torah reveals the plan, then it returns to the episode that brought the hidden subconscious desires out in the open. The physical Tabernacle helps us convert those passionate instincts for the good.
Perhaps the approaches dovetail. The first tells us that passions can never substitute for hard self-development. The second tells us that such passions, once converted, are our greatest spiritual asset.

Reznor was unhappy that the closing act was cut by credit rolls before it ended, but Portnow argued that it was all about timing at the end.
Nine Inch Nails' frontman Trent Reznor was none to happy about their performance being cut short at Sunday, January 26 telecast of Grammy Awards. The rocker gave a loud message for the awards event organizers on Twitter, writing "F**K YOU".
Nine Inch Nails, Queens of the Stone Age, Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl and Fleetwood Mac's Lindsey Buckingham were the acts closing the show at Los Angeles' Staples Center. The credits began to roll before the set was over. "Music's biggest night... to be disrespected. A heartfelt F--K YOU guys," Reznor tweeted after the show.
Recording Academy president Neil Portnow said that the show had run past its scheduled three and a half hour telecast. In a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, Portnow explained, "We save the end slot for something that is a bit of a jam, because you can have the energy go and then it's just a matter of the clock."
This is not the first time Reznor had a beef with the Grammys. In 2011, he dissed the event, "Why don't the Grammys matter? Because it feels rigged and cheap - like a popularity contest that the insiders club has decided." Despite his statement, Nine Inch Nails have received 12 nominations and 2 wins at the Grammys. This year, the band were nominated for Best Alternative Music Album but lost it to Vampire Weekend.

The International Energy Agency said oil markets were currently well supplied and did not warrant any action by the West's energy watchdog despite a recent spike in prices. Supply outages from Libya and concerns the escalating situation in Syria could spill into other Middle East countries has pushed up prices for international benchmark Brent by nearly $8 this month to over $115 a barrel. The IEA comprises OECD countries that hold strategic inventories which can be released in the event of a supply disruption in oil markets. A spokesman for the IEA said that while the agency was concerned about the impact of high oil prices on the global economic recovery, currently the market was 'adequately supplied.' 'While the IEA, as always, stands ready to respond in the event of a major supply disruption, the current situation does not call for an IEA response,' the spokesman for the IEA's Secretariat in Paris said in a statement by email. In 2011, the IEA coordinated an effort by member states to release emergency stocks in response to disruptions caused by the unrest in Libya. Analysts have warned prices could spike sharply if violence in Syria spills over into larger oil producing countries in the region. Meanwhile, IEA has warned of further delays and cost blowouts at Australia's $190 billion pipeline of LNG projects, many of which it says may be too exposed to any changes in LNG pricing. The energy watchdog also does not see expansions of plants such as Gorgon, let alone any new developments, going ahead in the nation's current uncompetitive environment, which is becoming more exposed as US LNG prospects grow. 'In the past year, we have become even more pessimistic about the project management aspects of Australian LNG – there is very clear evidence that the ability of the industry to manage these projects is stretched to the limit. This is concerning, because while LNG in Asia is quite expensive and has a premium pricing, if you have very, very high project costs some of these projects will be quite exposed to any change in Asian markets. Australian projects still involve significant risk of further cost overruns and delays,' IEA said.

Type of Document Master's Thesis Author Juban, Angie Pitts Author's Email Address email@example.com URN etd-0610103-102401 Title Insiders: Louisiana Journalists Sallie Rhett Roman, Helen Grey Gilkison, Iris Turner Kelso Degree Master of Arts (M.A.) Department History Advisory Committee
Advisor Name Title Gaines M. Foster Committee Chair Charles J. Shindo Committee Member John Rodrigue Committee Member Keywords

Date of Defense 2003-04-01 Availability unrestricted AbstractSallie Rhett Roman, Helen Grey Gilkison and Iris Turner Kelso were three women journalists in Louisiana, active in consecutive time periods from 1891 to 1996. Their work brings up five particular questions. First, Why did these women start working and how did they negotiate public employment? Second, how did they balance the relationship between work and home since they did find employment outside of the home? Third, how did they fit into their contemporary image of women and journalists? Fourth, how did they use written language to portray a particular voice to the reader for a particular purpose? Fifth, did they choose to cover specifically male or female topics in their articles?
Answering these questions reveals that these three women challenged traditional roles for women in different ways. Sallie Rhett Roman, wrote from 1891 to 1909, had to negotiate much more strict societal norms for women and portrayed herself as a male writer to her audience. Helen Grey Gilkison, active from the late 1920s to the late 1940s, did not mask her gender but encouraged the idea that she was a member of the political social club with political access. Iris Turner Kelso, working after World War II, portrayed herself as having access to politicians and political events, but only as a way to suggest that she could provide the reader the "straight scoop." Each woman in her own way created an image of herself as an insider in the political process.
By relying on the image of "insider," these women did not overtly challenge the political or social system but rather supported it. Kelso was the only one who criticized those in politics and even she did not promote significant change in the political systems of New Orleans or the state of Louisiana.

Live From The Austin City Limits Festival, Day 2
Brittanie Shey: When you go to a festival litke this, you're always looking for the discovery, the one band that either blows you away or causes you to alter all your expectations. Today it was Dan Black, a performer we caught only because there was nothing else going on. As soon as we get home, we're downloading his CD.
We headed off to see Broken Bells, who, while they make beautiful music, are not the best show live. They were boring and lackluster, and we needed to work off some energy. Black was on the festival's smallest stage, but when we arrived he already had the bodies thumpin'. Wikipedia categorizes him as "wonky pop," which seems to be a kind of slag particular to Britain, from whence he hails.
What he plays is electropop with a brain - he was cracking jokes about Nietzsche between songs, and working sexy moves stolen from Justin Tranter of Semi Precious Weapons while singing. And working the synth computers. He was backed by a single guitar player, which lends itself easily to Wham! comparisons (along with the '80s aesthetic), but they are so much more that that.
They were smart, and fun, and they rocked.

Craig Hlavaty: We are currently sitting out an hour to get away from the heat, which made its heroic return this afternoon. Yesterday we were footloose and fancy free in the sun, having clammy hands and a cold nose, but today we are cursing our choice of black T-shirt, and whatever it was we did last night.
This afternoon we booked it from the front gate at 2:30 p.m. to see the Gaslight Anthem do their best version of the Bruce Springsteen and Thin Lizzy catalogs, rattling off cuts from this year's American Slang.
Lead singer Brian Fallon is an amiable frontman, crooning like a punk-rock Sinatra one minute and screaming his New Jersey head off the next. The new work stumbles a little, save for the title track of Slang, but the band's singles from 2008's The '59 Sound cooked us whole, especially "Miles Davis & The Cool."
Black Lips
Marco Torres
You could hear Lucero in the distance, doing stuff not much different from the Gaslights, albeit with a decade or so on them. Ben Nichols' rasp is hard to mistake even in a crowded aural landscape like ACL on a Saturday afternoon.
Black Lips were a late addition to the festival, added a few months back, but they schooled the trendoids waiting for the xx to take the stage after them. Standouts were "O Katrina" and "Cold Hands." Each passing year finds their brand of garage-rock getting more muscly and aggressive.
Time to go do another lap around the park, while we try to dodge the overabundance of baby strollers and toddlers walking around the park. No, seriously. Austin looks like it's been (getting) busy this past year and a half.
Sugar Free All-Stars at Austin Kiddie Limits
Brittanie Shey
Brittanie Shey: All Aftermath wants right now is a dip in Barton Springs. So sweaty. So dusty. We feel like a chinchilla. But we have found the best place to seek respite at ACL: Austin Kiddie Limits.
Brittanie Shey
We spent nearly an hour there earlier this afternoon, watching Frances England and the Sugar Free All-Stars, who played covers of Porno for Pyros and Devo, as kids rocked out in the hip-hop booth and the karaoke tent. So much fun it made us consider procreation.
At 3 p.m. we had the choice of Mayer Hawthorne & the Country vs. Manchester Orchestra; we chose Hawthorne based on reviews that compared him to Motown and the soul revivalists like Amy Winehouse and the Dap-Kings. We chose wrong.
We should have been warned by the conversation of the woman behind us, who was complaining that the band was five minutes behind schedule - the nerve - and when the band started in with recorded horns as backup music instead of the real things. C'mon guys. Even Spoon brought a three-piece brass band.
Hawthorne's music is like Motown, in a way. Safe for conservative ears, and packaged for white people. Mom music, our companion calls it. We only stayed for three songs.
Hello, ladies.

Craig Hlavaty: The heat is on, guys. Yesterday's cool breezes and hoodies have given way to sweating and scantily-clad bros and girls as we walked into ACL early this afternoon.
First up for us was singer-songwriter Lissie, who started things off at the ZYNC Card stage. The blonde guitarist was Lilith Fair to the hilt, reminding us of Joni Mitchell at times. It wasn't just the hair either. She had a healthy crowd of noodle-dancing girls and guys standing there for moral support.
Run With Bulls
Craig Hlavaty
The Very Best was nearly drowning out her folkie-strumming with what can only be described as island air-raid music. Esau Mwamwaya's caterwauling was grating for the two minutes we stood in the crowd. It's hot and we are full of Red Bull, so we can hate what he want. We can't see how this stuff would translate outside of Club Roxy or Rich's Houston on an all-ages night. Different strokes and all that noise.
Nashville's Run With Bulls were sweating it out on the tiny BMI stage. The trio brought listeners in with their cover of Don Henley's "The Boys of Summer," injecting it with some Black Crowes-style wail. Southern-fried Jet? Mark it, Smoky.
Right now we are off to see the Gaslight Anthem, Black Lips, and possibly Dan Black, Lord willing.

Fairfax County Adult Detention Center Receives "Exceptional" Audit Rating
August 17, 2009
Sheriff Stan Barry is proud to announce that the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center received an exceptional performance rating on the Local Inmate Data System (LIDS) annual audit. LIDS is the state's computerized data collection and financial reimbursement system. Jail facilities that fail the LIDS audit lose their certification and subsequently do not receive their per diem reimbursement.
The Sheriff's Office is reimbursed at a rate of $8 per day for local inmates and up to $14 per day for each Department of Corrections inmate housed in the Adult Detention Center. In fiscal year 2009, the Sheriff's Office received $4,067,965 from the Virginia State Compensation Board.
The purpose of the audit was to determine the reliability and integrity of information related to LIDS and that the Adult Detention Center was complying with all appropriate policies, procedures, laws and regulations.
"Earning this rating reaffirms our commitment to maintaining high standards and providing excellent services to the community," said Sheriff Barry. "I'm very proud of our staff for their outstanding work."
With more than 500 sworn deputy sheriffs, Fairfax is the largest Sheriff's Office in Virginia and among the largest in the country. The Sheriff's Office is accredited by the Virginia Law Enforcement Professional Standards Commission, the National Commission on Correctional Health Care and the American Correctional Association.

Bates breaking down film, still undecided about future
Ousted defensive coordinator Jim Bates is breaking down film of the Atlanta Falcons offense for Raheem Morris but still is undecided about whether to accepted a limited role with the team.
Morris took over the defensive play-calling duties from Bates Monday.
"He's been here every day, he's been here working in the lab, giving me tendency information and things of that nature,'' Morris said. "We're just working through this for both of us. He's been helping me out. He's still involved, he's still with me and he's always been a great guy.''
Morris said it's undecided whether Bates will accompany the team to Atlanta for Sunday's game.\
"We're still working on that as well, seeing where he can help me at, seeing where we can help each other and help this team get better and progress,'' Morris said.

Yelp Makes its First Deal; Buys European Competitor Qype for $50 Million
Yelp has made its first acquisition.
The review website has acquired a European competitor, Qype, saying it is looking to expand its European presence.
Yelp has been talking about expanding internationally more, opening a London office earlier this year, and says the $50 million deal will "accelerate" that expansion.
"We have built a solid foundation in Europe and this acquisition should significantly increase our international presence," said Yelp co-founder and CEO Jeremy Stoppelman.
The $50 million includes about half in cash and half in Yelp shares, which were up 9% to $26.13. Yelp also preannounced its third quarter, saying revenue exceeded its prior expectations.
The deal, which has closed, will be recorded in Yelp's fourth-quarter results.
Yelp went public in March, pricing its IPO at $15, and has been among the more positive Internet IPO performances of the year.

Happy Seven Month Birthday
On Tuesday you turned seven months old. You may as well be seven, that's how foreign this feels to me. We're more than half-way through the first year of your life. Its been a busy month of milestones flying past me so fast I can hardly keep track like sitting up on your own, and crawling, and standing on anything, the coffee table, the sofa, the crib. You love standing. During the day you stand in your crib and giggle, at night you stand, clanging your fists in fury like we are cruel wardens who have wrongfully imprisoned you. But I love your victory roars when you demand we notice you and demand that we recognize how amazing it is, this standing thing, and that you can do it so well.
You had your first Eid-ul-Adha this month. Your dadi and dada came to celebrate it with you. We hold no illusions that they came for anyone other than you. You wore the shalwar kamiz your dadi made just for you- and you opened gifts and pulled my hair. On that note, sweetheart, would you mind easing on mastering being a rope climber on my hair? It leads to me posing in nearly all pictures while holding you looking like this:
Aamina sucked their thumbs as kids and they grin at this development. While many babies suck thumbs, for us its further glimpses of how you're a cornucopia of us [though still your own unique you].
Your Abu and I look at teenagers who talk back to their parents, roll eyes and demand money and wonder how parents tolerate this. Now I think its because of these moments right now, of pure guileless love. It settles into your heart and helps you weather the trying times of adolescence. As I glanced at old pictures of myself I was struck with the love I saw in my parent's eyes. Its the same love I see in their eyes today. I realized, 3 days, 3 weeks, 3 months, 3 years, or 30, when I look in your eyes I will always see my baby Waleed. This grunting, crawling, cooing, crying innocent being I was entrusted with to protect. Happy seven month birthday Waleed. Know that I will always love you exactly like I love you today.
Your Mama

Aisha, thank you for the post. (From it, I found you have a child :).) Happy 7 months birthday! BTW, this is Denys, who used to work with Ali at AYS. It has been busy four years since last time we saw each other. Congrats, once again, on all professional and family achievements! (I saw Ali's profile on LinkedIn, but could not seem to contact him easily.) I recognize him on the bottom photo, and am leaving my contacts below, in case he is interested in contacting me, since I lost his number: cell 650-892-5327 or firstname.lastname@example.com (I am still in the Bay Area, and not in Ukraine where I thought I would be :)). Cheers, and say Hi to Ali for me

Thank you Ayesha!
Denys, thanks for the congratulations, I'm afraid you have the wrong person. . . my brother never worked for AYS and he doesn't he have a LinkedIn profile. The bottom photo is an old photo of me as a baby and the person holding me is my dad (though Ali does look my dad). Thanks for stopping by though, and hope you find Ali, the one you are looking for, soon! :)

Wow ubi soft. If any chance you bump into ashraf Ismail, please fist bump him and tell him his the man
If read dead redemption was the best western/ cowboy game ever, then black flag is the best pirate game ever.
The tough part for ubi is black Flag have revised the bar soo high, I don't know how you guys can top that in terms of content (awesome open world sea) & the fun sea battle mechanics.
With your positive outlook on next gen hope you and your team would surprise us.
I stopped after a couple of posts because it was really bad.
A) I don't believe you are a dev because you offer no actual proof of it. While you might be a dev for a major company, I highly doubt it.
And B) Your entire argument is based around blaming consoles for your lack of innovation and drive. Sorry, but that is drivel. It doesn't take an Xbox 1 or Ps4 to be innovative, it just takes ideas.
As I said, pretty sad.
Analogy of gamefaqs: Islands of logic floating in a sea of idiocy and childishness.
Have a real point please. Don't use personal attacks or emotions.

Thanks, mewmew, though I can't say I had any hand in that game whatsoever. Moreover I think Ashraf Ismail is part of a different studio entirely, so I can't hold hopes for bumping into him.
But thanks a bunch for the positivity. Optimism is all I can hope to bring with me even during the darker nights, so it's good to see everyone following suit. Cheers, pal.

I stopped after a couple of posts because it was really bad.
You've got every right to disbelieve anything you want, but if I was going to pretend to be anything, let me assure you, it wouldn't be a low to mid level art and design developer. I don't make a huge amount of money and a lot of my decisions are skimmed over (the larger the company you work for, the less creative input you get - it's a tradeoff for overall security).
And I never condemned consoles in any way, that implies I detracted from their merits. I was merely championing the uniqueness of this new generation of consoles for having interesting and different intentions.
Many years ago console gaming was viable FOR the clear-cut power and technological advancement in THAT way, because it was reaching a bleeding edge of commercial availability. Zork WAS the best you could get at the time. Dizzy WAS the sharpest you could expect graphics to appear. Hell, I remember being wowed by "Granny's Garden" on the BBC. But now, it's been surpassed by the power exhibited by PC gaming, and now consoles need to have a new niche in order to be relevant. This is why I would never condemn Nintendo's Wii for doing what it did for console gaming. Nintendo were actually rather shrewd in keeping consoles as "magical devices to make games inventive again", because trying to win a power struggle is a pretty pointless endeavour now. Eight years ago it was close to futile - now, it is most DEFINITELY futile.
So to have a console with an in-built secondary touch screen, to have a console that's got a multi user interface and 3d motion controller with vocal commands - even a handheld that's dual-screened AND 3D with gyroscopic sensors - THAT is the way consoles can remain relevant. Not with power, but with UNIQUENESS. Not by flexing muscles, but by showing PERSONALITY.
Anyone that battles with PC gamers over power, and is solely contesting their consoles - they're fighting a losing battle. But those that contest that consoles are becoming a new niche again that deserve to exist upon their own merits - then there's credibility there, to me.

Truly respect when developers/ industry or people from the other side of the fence comes here
It takes some balls of steel to be here where it is mostly negativity fest.even people like that total sea biscuit guy can't handle much negativity
Just feels great when developers makes an effort to listen. Because end of the day the games are for the gamers, and underneath all the trolls/fanboys/causals/hardcore/whatever's are people really passionate about their hobby.
Thank you for gracing your presence here. And hope you will carry that spark of innovation/optimism long in your career. Your the type of creative director EA needs, and hopefully you ll get far in ubi. It will only make the industry a better place.

Wouldn't it be easier/cheaper to combine augmented reality with Kinect/Eye technology for a similar effect?

Shame, Ubisoft used to be one of my favorite companies until Rainbow Six, Ghost Recon, and Splinter Cell were destroyed. All three have been reduced to a shell of their former selves.
