University of Alabama at Birmingham — School of Nursing
- Program Type:
- Coverdell Fellows
- Department:
- School of Nursing
- Degrees Awarded:
- Nursing (BSN), Nursing (MSN)
- Admissions Deadlines:
AMNP deadlines are available here. BSN deadlines are available here.
- Admissions Cycle:
Students are admitted once each year for spring term to the MSN Accelerated Masters Entry Program or twice per year for fall or spring terms into the Bachelor's of Science in Nursing (BSN) program.
- Program Start:
- AMNP - January of each year, BSN - August of each year, and January of each year
- Program Founded:
- September, 2008
Two scholarships will be awarded to Peace Corps Fellows for the first year BSN or MSN program; During the second year of the MSN program through an AMNP entry, Fellows will be eligible to be employed as a full time registered nurse.
The Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) Curriculum is designed to prepare graduates for entry into professional nursing practice. This foundation offers both academic and professional nursing courses that provide the base for clinical competence and informed judgments about health care situations and care of patients in both in and out-patient settings.
The Second degree option in the BSN program is available for those who have completed a previous non-nursing undergraduate degree and meet the UAB criteria for undergraduate admission. Applicants must have at least a baccalaureate degree in a non-nursing major that was earned at an accredited school or university and the first degree must have been based upon at least 120 semester hours of earned credit. Students in this option must first apply to UAB as an undergraduate transfer student where they are assigned a pre-nursing advisor who will assist them in determining eligibility for application and admission to the upper division major.
The Accelerated Master's in Nursing Pathway (AMNP), is an alternate pathway into the existing master's in nursing (MSN degree) for applicants who have a bachelor's degree in a field other than nursing, who are not registered nurses, and who seek MSN preparation. The AMNP was developed in response to the growing need for well-educated, highly-skilled professionals who can manage complexity within clinical environments.
The UAB AMNP is distinct among schools of nursing because it:
- Prepares professional nurses for generalist, entry-level practice through initial licensure by examination in Alabama as a Registered Nurse;
- Establishes a foundation for competent professional practice as a registered nurse through a mentored nurse residency in entry-level clinical practice; and
- Equips graduates for study in the advanced generalist area of nursing practice
BSN Admission Requirements for Second Degree Students
Admission to the Second Degree BSN option is available in the fall and spring terms. Requirements for admission to the program include:
- Have earned at least a bachelor's degree in a major other than nursing at a regionally accredited institution.
- The first degree must be based on at least 120 semester hours of accredited work.
- A minimum grade of "C" in the pre-nursing courses and a pre-nursing course GPA of at least 2.75 is required for admission.
The on-line application for the UAB Office of Undergraduate Admissions is available here along with contact information.
For further information on the Second Degree BSN program please link here.
What are the admission requirements for the (AMNP) MSN option?
- Baccalaureate degree from a regionally accredited university;
- A minimum GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale overall or last 60 hours;
- Completion of AMNP Foundation Courses;
- Minimum required score on one of the following standardized admission tests: MAT 410; GMAT 480; or GRE combined score of 297 (new scale) or 1000 (previous scale) on the verbal and quantitative sections (These tests may be waived if certain requirements are met);
- Three references reflecting academic achievement and work experience;
- Submission of application by published deadline with fee.

Infantile febrile convulsions
4 people found the following review helpful
Posted by Reviewer2047688 From Australia on Sep 22, 2012
Purchased at iHerb
My son is almost 10 months old, and has suffered twice with fever-related 'infantile febrile convulsions'. The doctors at the Children's Emergency department said they are 'common' and don't cause any harm - I just have to wait till he's 3 or 4 and hopefully he'll outgrow them. They said in the meantime he will probably be susceptible to fever-seizures each time he gets sick with a fever - that's a pretty terrifying prospect for a parent of a young baby. Long story short, as a terrified mum (convulsions are a horrible thing to have to watch), I googled one night, and found a comment from another mum about powdered calcium stopping her children's convulsions, so I jumped on iHerb and ordered this product (which I couldn't find in Australia). And then I waited.... About three weeks ago the product arrived. My son's fever spiked yesterday afternoon, and I automatically reached for the panadol. It did NOTHING for his fever. It climbed to 39.2 degrees. He was lethargic and glassy eyed. I tried cool face washers, stripping him off to a nappy, cool bath - nothing worked. I was waiting for the seizure to hit, and had the phone ready to call the ambulance. Then it hit me that I had the calcium carbonate in the cupboard. I mixed some up and gave it to him, and NO WORD OF A LIE, his fever went from 39.2 to 36.9 in less than 60 seconds. He went from burning up and glassy-eyed, to cool, happy, smiling, in less than a minute. I thought maybe it was a conincidence, due to the timing of also giving him panadol. But his fever spiked again at 11.30pm, and instead of going for the panadol, I reached for the calcium carbonate first this time. Again - instantly (less than a minute) his fever went from 39.4 degress down to 37 degrees, and his constitution went from miserable, glassy-eyed and (from what I know of past experience) bordering on seizure, to completely normal, happy child. He was back in his cot asleep within half an hour, whereas in the past we have had to a

I jokingly refer to myself as a "mad scientist" as I like making my own soap, deodorant, and now, with this product, my own tooth (paste) powder. Along with several other "secret ingredients" I have concocted a wonderful recipe that has made me brush my teeth more often and have a longer feeling of fresh breath. I highly recommend this product to other "mad scientists" like myself.
Awesome Product!

This product is awesome. I took 1 tbsp. twice a day for seven days and now I take 1 tsp. a day. It has been more than ten days and the pain in my right wrist is literally nonexistent. I also give 1 tsp to my children ages 2-14 years one a day.
Calcium Carbonate Powder review

I learned of NOW supplements through a canine food group I belong to. Their standards for purity are exactly what I look for when buying supplements. I use this product for my dogs to balance their home cooked diet. Calcium carbonate is supposed to be easy on the digestive system. My dogs have no problems taking this product.

Hey everyone. So far this challenge is going well. I'm enjoying being out of the holiday season and back in the routine. Last week I my first few workouts were good but wasn't too sore so I mixed things up, tried some new exercises and I was definitely more sore after the latest workouts.
hope everyone is kicking butt and keeping up with the water drinking.
Just thought I'd better check in and thank everyone for posting up their progress, particularly on how well they were on their free day. I've been reading your comments and you've made me realise there's more that I can do to hit my goals. Although I trained well last week and this morning (I start my weeks on Sunday, so just started week 2) I didn't do as well on planning my meals or on setting my goals in advance. I know that this is the first step to losing focus, so thought I come in here and confess!
Trained well this morning, cardio before dawn. Cycled like a mad thing and sweated buckets, but felt good afterwards. Upper body tomorrow night and my arms are still sore, but they will be fine tomorrow.
Howdy TexasChris! Yes sir, you were right - I'm class of 2000 and was definitely tuned in on Friday night. What a performance that was! I can't remember a bowl game in my lifetime that we dominated that soundly against a traditional powerhouse team. I'm sure there were probably a couple of other performances like that in the 80's when I was just a little boy and too into cartoons to care about football.
Hope your BFL progress is going well. Mine is going good so far. I'm not officially doing the Challenge, but just trying to get fit again, drop to pounds, and add plenty of muscle. I need to go find some protein online or someplace. Let me know if you have any good websites or stores to purchase Myoplex from. Thanks and Gig 'Em!
I have had to take a break for the last two days. I have continued the diet portion of BFL, but this cough I have had got too bad. Still taking decongestants and feeling much better, but I missed the last two days of workouts. It sucks being sick. Makes you appreciate not being sick and feel for those who have chronic illnesses.
No matter, I'm getting back to the gym tonight. No cold or flu or whatever it was is going to keep me from accomplishing my goals.
Hey all, I'm in too, even tho I started Dec.17th this kind of forum is very helpful & exciting. I'm normally a quitter but am determined for once in my life to accomplish something like this. This Challenge has been tough in a lot of ways besides the physical, hence the " challenge ", doing good tho not eating things I'm not supposed to even when I want to really bad. Just so hopeful I can reach my goals. Good luck to every one!! Ag12thman, you should be able to find protein stuff on Amazon, also Walmart stores.
Sorry to hear about the cough TexasChris. Glad to see you are pushing through it, but take it easy and get lots of C. How did you end up doing?
I have been so busy between work and BFL that I haven't had any time to check in. I am finished with Day 5 and I feel great. Have been eating great, workouts great, cardio - well I will work on hitting my highs better. I'm not keen on the cardio. :) I like to weigh in on Friday nights, so even though it is only Day 5 I got on the scale - not expecting much - but I lost 3-1/2 pounds! I am not really surprised as I have been pretty much perfect on the food part. Just hope I can make it through my free day tomorrow and back out of it on Sunday without gaining it all back! What are your thoughts on the free day? But I think I may try a free meal and even continue to stay away from coffee with cream and sugar which has always been my undoing. Tonight I made my husband coffee with cream and sugar (our Friday Sabbath tradition) and didn't even taste it! I almost had a cup and did as Bill Phillips suggested which was to think of it as an OPPORTUNITY to exercise my will. So I did and I feel pretty great about it. I boiled some water and had Indian Tea with a splash of milk instead. Yay me!
Had a great week of BFL and a tough week in the office. I am a Payroll Manager and so year end is kind of hectic for me and the majority of my work came down to this week of all weeks! Thank goodness I had all my meals planned and had shopped for all I needed last Sunday or this week would have been a bust! I was glad to be home, doing my UBWO and catching up on Downton Abby Season 3!
Hey guys!! Started Jan 2 and so far so good. Workouts are good but intense. Eating could be a little better. (Portion control) but at least the portions are healthy. I'm really encouraged! Starting to get a solid workout down and back into eating healthy. Feels great! Keep pressing forward and stay focused! Motivated! We all know this works!!!
Hey SallyforLife, its awesome to hear your still pushing, even with hactic schedule.
Excuses are hard to get by. I have been doing great with workouts, even when I miss a day and I'm at work I find excuses to walk an extra few places or when I'm alone I do calve raises, tighten my abs, etc.
the last few days I've been sick, sucks. Been eatting really well and it feels amazing. I'm so happy to get on track again. Un-clean eating has been eating away my health and it's amazing I put myself through the fatigue and bad moods. Since I've changed my diet I'm in such better moods. I'm almost over this cold and I know I'm going to get right back up and start it again.
Excuse free and strong mind.
Sallyforlife, the cough is almost gone, thanks for asking. Hooray!! I'm glad I at least stuck to the healthy eating, because I don't think I am too far off track. I am already feeling like I have more energy during the day.
Hey Ag12thman.....I buy all of bulk purchases of Myoplex on Amazon, like the 20 packs of powder mix. But every once and a while I buy a 4 pack of the single serving shakes at Walgreens or Target. Just tried the Stawberry Cream flavor today, and it was pretty good. Not Strawberry Quick, but better than I thought it would be.
I've been using this app for my iPhone to help with my 20 minute cardio workouts. It is called "Seconds Pro" and it is awesome. I'll check in tomorrow and tell you all more about it.
Keep up the good work everyone!!!!
Hey gang,
All is going well here in NJ. I am having an outpatient procedure on Wed ( girl stuff) and am a bit concerned about staying on track. I am planning on doing a double work out tomorrow, skipping Wed. and hopefully will be ok to lift on Thur. The thought of going without food till afternoon is definitely freaking me out. My stomach is growling every 2 to 3 hours now :)
What is everyone thinking about when to weigh and measure themselves? I was thinking every two weeks which is tomorrow.
I wanted to tell you guys about this iPhone app I have been using. Its called Seconds Pro and it has been very helpful with my cardio workouts. One of my big problems during my first challenge was remembering the time intervals for the 20 minute cardio workout. Well this app makes it so you don't have to remember the interval times or intensities because it will audibly tell you when to change intensity levels.
The app is basically a timer. The first time you use the app you enter the length of time for each of your intervals and name the intervals. When you start your workout the app audibly reads to you the name of the first interval, and starts to count down the time for that interval. When it is time to start your next interval, there is an audible count down (i.e., "3, 2, 1"), and then the app audibly reads the name of your next interval, and so on and so on until you are done. This way you don't have to watch the clock when you are doing your cardio nor do you have to remember the sequence of the intensity levels for the 20 minute cardio workout.
For example, I set up my intervals with the times just like in the body for life book and with the following names:
2:00 - Level Five
1:00 - First Level Six
1:00 - First Level Seven
1:00 - First Level Eight
1:00 - First Level Nine
1:00 - Second Level Six
1:00 - Second Level Seven
1:00 - Second Level Eight
1:00 - Second Level Nine
1:00 - Third Level Six
1:00 - Third Level Seven
1:00 - Third Level Eight
1:00 - Third Level Nine
1:00 - Fourth Level Six
1:00 - Fourth Level Seven
1:00 - Fourth Level Eight
1:00 - Fourth Level Nine
1:00 - Level Ten
1:00 - Level Five Cool Down
Then when I start the nice ladies voice says "Level Five" then almost two minutes later she says "3, 2, 1, First Level Six" then a minute later she says "3, 2, 1, First Level Seven"...etc....until the end.
I can even listen to music with my iphone while the app is going and you still hear the voice at the right time.
Don't know if it will work for you guys, but it has been such a big help for me, I thought I should share.
TexasChris, I'm glad you're back to feeling better. This weather down our way is not too easy on the allergies and/or cough and overall wellness. Glad you're getting back to normal, though.
Thanks for the advice on where to buy the EAS protein packets. I love the Ready-to-drink shakes too, but they are pretty pricey for me and I have several shakers that I could easily use to mix up the powder packets of Myoplex with. I'll have to check out the Amazon prices on those. I never even though of looking on Amazon for protein powder, so thanks for pointing that out to me.
I also think that app you're using for your cardio sounds really handy. I'm going to look into that as well. If anyone has anything else that has been handy to them throughout this 12-weeks, please share with the rest of us just like TexasChris did. Thanks again, man.
I'm off to do an intense cardio session after work. Yesterday I did a pretty tough weight-training session, but still need to work on getting a little higher in intensity on those last couple of sets. I haven't gotten my weight amounts adjusted just right for those quite yet.
Thanks y'all,
Hey Ag12thman...I just found my last invoice for my myoplex purchase from Amazon. It was from an Amazon Market Place vendor called AllStarHealth.com. You can order it directly from their website (i.e., allstarhealth.com) but if you order it through Amazon you get free shipping and it ends up being cheaper.
Thanks TexasChris. I'm going to order some later this afternoon. Thanks for sending me all this info! You have a good one.
Hello everyone.... It's been a while since I posted but I switched job assignments and had to get used to working nights. Regardless, I stuck to the BFL eating and workouts and I have been doing really well. I'm looking forward to my free day on Saturday! Well, I have to go on a run!
PS Florida is perfect this time of year!

text: hi lisa...i had to write something about this past sunday's episode and how i related to your struggle with trying to get and stay pregnant. i had gone through the same thing. multiple miscarriages, ectopic pregnancies, etc. my main problem, however, was due to something called anti-phospho lipid antibody syndrome (i also was positive for a lupus anticoagulant). basically, i would shoot tiny blood clots that would cause me to miscarry. after the third miscarriage, my doctors finally did some tests and found the aforementioned problem. the answer to this issue was to take a baby aspirin 1 x a day for the first trimester and then heparin injections bid for the second and third trimesters. while i never ended up carrying a pregnancy to term due to ectopic pregnancies that led to both tubes being removed, i did progress past my usual point of miscarriage which was always at 5 weeks. i had made it to 7 weeks but then lost the pregnancy because it was ectopic and about to rupture. these two issues were mutually exclusive of each other. there is a docotor in connecticut (where i am from) that has helped many women with this syndrome carry their pregnancies to term and they now have healthy, beautiful children! i'm sure you have had extensive testing done and you may already know the answer to your issue. i hope all of your dreams of a family come true for you!

Get a chance to get Weinstein use your script.https://www.facebook.com/weinsteinco/ap
Really enjoyed reading Larry Cohen's Maniac Cop screenplay. I think I had more fun with it than with the resulting film.
mathisvogel's Website
I've only written one film script, and that was done when I was about 15 years of age. It's title was, "Adventures With the Living Dead". It featured two main stories, as a sort of zombie anthology. One story was about a group of young teens trying to survive the zombie apocalypse together. While writing it, I of course had in mind casting my personal friends as the characters. The second story was about a guy who leaves his apartment during the apocalypse to raid a grocery store for some much-needed food and supplies. Things go haywire when he runs into rough, tough, and mean group of men who were previously members of the National Guard (back when civilization was still intact, of course). Basically, I broke ALL of the screenwriting rules. I knew nothing about screenplays, except that each page was to equal about a minute of film. So the format is just...god awful. Any prodco who would dare turn to page 1 would immediately put it back down.
Oh, and the screenplay added up to about only 50 pages.But, I was 15, so. That's my excuse.
I don't even know if I still have it. I remember giving a copy of it to my parents, and having all of my documents erased from the home PC. So hopefully it's still around here somewhere. I'd like to re-visit it again.

Yes, I had exactly the same plans with my first ever script, "zombie apocalypse", which was just a handful of pages long and which I never produced. Casting friends is a great way of losing friends and/or having really crap acting in your film, I've since learned

Most underrated album ever....
Written by Introspekrieg on 04.03.2010 at 23:02
Very good album, and as Kalisia have shown, decent production really brings out how awesome the songwriting really is. But I do like the nostalgic feeling the bad production gives me...
"Light Fuse And Get Away" is still one of my favorite songs to this day.

Very underrated debut. Dominici did a great job here. The Killing Hand and Ytse Jam can be considered as DT classics.

Human Services Center - Heatlth-e-Arizona
A critical foundation for building stable families in our neighborhoods is the certainty they can purchase food, have healthcare coverage and are connected to potential cash benefits. The Health-e-Arizona online application for Food Stamps, medical assistance and cash assistance is available at the Rio Vista through a bank of online computers and trained volunteer assistants.
Economic troubles in Arizona have resulted in dramatic increases in the number of our community members seeking help at DES offices. Increased wait times and decreased staffing in DES offices may slow down the process. We know, too, that some people are uncomfortable applying for benefits or asking for help in crowded offices. As the economic crisis continues more people may go without supportive benefits that could sustain them until they find a job or a job.
Do you need help applying?
Our team of volunteers are willing and able to assist you in the application process and eliminate the need to go to your local DES office. The Human Services Center is open Tuesday and Wednesday from 9 – 12 and Thursday from 9 - 4.
This service is available thanks to our partnership with the Department of Economic Security and the Neighborhood Roots System.
You can apply online at www.HealthEArizona.org

I just don't happen to be one of them.
Maybe it is because I'm a male, or maybe because I don't care for crowds. I rate Christmas shopping right up there with going through the Atlanta airport. I can do it if I must, but I prefer walking barefoot across hot coals.
And just in case you may share these same feelings, let me propose what I think is a great alternative to traditional Christmas shopping.
This is choosing some non-profit entity and making a generous donation to it in honor of those you love and want to remember during the holiday season. Actually, my brother and sister and I have been doing this for years.
It began when all three of us struggled with trying to decide what to buy Mother and Daddy. Did they really need anything? What could we get them that wouldn't be quickly forgotten and banished to a closet to gather dust for eternity?
In fact, I remember saying to Daddy one time, "You know, it's really hard to figure out what to get you for Christmas."
And I'll never forget his reply. "Yes, I did the same thing for years with my own daddy."
That year, my siblings and I made a nice contribution to the library at Red Level High School in Covington County in honor of our parents, who both graduated from there.
Since then, I've contributed to a number of good causes. Food banks, pre-K programs, ministries and so forth. I just write them a check and give them the names and addresses of loved ones and ask that they send them a letter explaining what was done. Everyone I've ever approached has been more than happy to do this in exchange for help.
Mother and Daddy are now gone, but not my brother and sister and others. They now know they will get a letter from someone, just as I know I will get a letter from some entity Barbara and Steve have contributed to.
Let me suggest that you consider doing the same thing — and that the beneficiary of your kindness is involved in education such as a school, a PTO, a classroom, a school club or a special-education fund-drive.
Stop by a school and talk to the principal, tell them what you want to do and watch their face light up. Call your local school board office and ask them what kind of assistance they need. Do they know of any children with special needs this holiday season? Is there a special project a school has been working on to make their learning environment better? Is there a choral group that could use new music? Could the drama club use new sound equipment?
I once raised money to build a shower in an inner-city school after the principal explained that many of her students come from homes where the water has been turned off because bills were not paid on time. And I never drop by that school without thinking about the shower and feeling good that it is still being used long after another pair of bedrooms slippers would've worn out.
No doubt, some will read this and think, "Boy, he's just trying to find the easy way out of Christmas shopping." And no doubt, there is some truth in that thought.
Still, Christmas is not just the season of giving for the sake of giving; it is the season of truly being generous with our own blessings and thinking of those who are perhaps less fortunate. And going out of our way to share our blessings with our schools, their students and their mission embodies the spirit of the season in a most meaningful way.
May God bless you and yours during this special time of the year.

CHICAGO — "So what do you think of Tim Miles?"
Friends, fans, emailers and chatters have hit me with that question since Miles took the Nebraska men's basketball job nearly a year ago.
First impressions, in this day of instant expertise and commentary, are everywhere from everybody. Me, I'm leery of first-year impressions when assessing power-conference coaches.
The love for Miles right now is near full bloom — and deservedly so.
This was a Husker team that people near the program feared might max out at 10 wins.
He got to 15, including an upset of Purdue in the Big Ten tournament, which has led friends to tell him semi-seriously that he raised the bar too high too soon at the start of his seven-year contract.
So after Miles' first 12 months on the job, what should we think?
I see parallels between Miles' early days at NU and the early days of Kansas State football under Bill Snyder. I'm talking about what Snyder often calls "intrinsic values" on how to do business.
Such foundation-building — regardless of wins and losses the first few years — is non-negotiable when trying to get out of the basement. We'll address the stark differences in the two men's personalities in a moment.
Like Snyder, Miles has created an internal standard of excellence in how you practice and how you play that won't be compromised.
Like Snyder, Miles has refused to put limits on what his program can achieve in any single year, regardless of the roster composition.
Like Snyder, Miles has identified in recruiting which players fit his style. Miles' simple mantra is "he better be able to pass it, catch it and shoot it."
Miles doesn't know Snyder and hasn't studied how the purple people's "Manhattan Miracle" in football came about. When told of some of Snyder's principles, Miles offered something I could imagine Snyder saying:
"What it comes down to is you get what you tolerate."
What gives Miles an edge over the often-crotchety Snyder in the early stages of rebuilding are his people skills and media savvy.
Now, Miles is no softie. He'll cuss-bomb in practice with the best of them. Also, try telling him sometime he can't do something. Remember in his opening press conference when he was asked about his basketball mentor?
"Losing," he said.
Yet Miles, at age 46, looks 26 and acts like he's 16. Those are compliments, folks. No program at Nebraska has ever been more in need of youthful enthusiasm mixed with proven experience than men's basketball.
His likability quotient is through the roof, from peers and media.
Fellow coaches genuinely praise him. It's not just the clich�d line of "his team plays hard." Michigan State's Tom Izzo, Wisconsin's Bo Ryan and Ohio State's Thad Matta all have said: "He can coach."
In public, Miles grabs audiences by the funny bone with his line about life being too short to live in fear, worry and doubt.
On the job, writers and talkers alike come away beaming after fun and intelligent interviews. BTN announcers act giddy around Miles, and he left ESPN2 sideline reporter Samantha Ponder giggling after Thursday's halftime interview.
(Bo Pelini, take a lesson. This stuff really does matter in recruiting and word-of-mouth promotion of your product. Perception becomes reality.)
Miles has been honest, consistent and, best of all, never phony. He doesn't just act like he enjoys dealing with players, boosters and media. He really does.
How wide a swath has Miles cut through the Big Ten?
At the league tourney on Thursday, two student journalists from the Daily Illini walked into the press room, put down their work bags and considered whether to go courtside for Nebraska vs. Purdue.
"Not a great game," one said. To which the other replied, "Yeah, but let's go get us some Tim Miles. I love that guy."
If Miles can motivate students from 500 miles away, maybe even the Husker fan base — a group that ex-Iowa State coach Johnny Orr once likened to dead dogs — has hope.
Going forward, we'll need to see if Miles can emulate how Snyder got Kansas State football from poor to fair to pretty good to good to really good.
The answer is by staying true to his intrinsic values while recruiting unsung but difference-maker talent.
With that noted, Nebraska fans need to go slow on next season.
Social-media "experts" bleat that the record will automatically be better because there will be new players. But it's rare for teams with one senior and at least seven Big Ten newcomers to excel. Especially with a lack of Big Ten size and strength.
Ask Miles about the three players he has sitting out — 6-foot-6 Texas Tech transfer Terran Petteway, 6-10 Florida transfer Walter Pitchford and 6-1 Omaha Central guard Deverell Biggs — and you'll get one of his classic no-bull responses.
"They look good at times," the coach said. "But when the thumb is on them, we'll find out.
"I mean that as a challenge to them, and I mean it honestly. You don't know how guys are going to react when pressure is applied. It's a different beast. They aren't being judged in public this year. They are playing with house money."
As for touted point guard recruit Tai Webster, first he has to arrive from New Zealand. Then he'll have to prove his worth in the Big Ten instead of against the unknown caliber of play he faces overseas.
But with Miles, like Snyder, it's not about a single player. It's about development of all players.
"Our style of play is motion offense," Miles said. "Actually, motion offense is not an offense — it's a way of life. So you're only going to go as far as your player development.
"If you're not doing that and your players aren't getting better with their skill and decision-making, then you're in trouble. In fact, you're going to be brutal."
Scheduling matters, too, while flipping a program's culture.
Snyder at K-State used his baby-bottom-soft nonconference slates to get up to speed and later flourish in the way the Bowl Championship Series system is structured.
Miles has learned through his days at North Dakota State and Colorado State that you can't use that model to game the Ratings Percentage Index of the nation's 347 Division I basketball teams.
"Yeah, we need to learn how to win," he said. "But you always need X amount of top 50 games and X amount of top 100 games. Then you've got to be careful about playing games against 250-plus opponents."
Miles displayed his scheduling acumen this season.
Instead of playing four or five schools from bottom-feeder leagues, he picked up mid-level teams such as Valparaiso and Tulane and Kent State. That's why Nebraska, even with a losing record, was No. 99 in RPI this weekend — the only under-.500 team in the top 100.
In sum, Miles appears to have the chops to perform his own miracle in a program that desperately needs one. As always, though, it will come down to recruiting.
"I know the recipe," he said. "I've just got to find the right ingredients."

Restoring Indian Dignity
Andrew Morriss, Fr. Michael Butler 11/15/2013
Policy recommendations from theologians and Church authorities have taken the form of pontifications, obscuring many economic and public policy realities. Butler and Morriss offer a new contribution to Orthodox environmental theology by Church teaching but also by sound economic analysis.
As part of PERC's Lone Mountain Forum, "Reconciling Economics and Ecology," PERC Board Member Steven Hayward sits down with author Charles Mann to revisit contemporary understandings of the pre-Columbian world.

PML is a rare progressive disease of the nervous system. It is caused by a viral infection of the cells that produce myelin.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
PML is caused by a specific papovavirus, known as JC virus. Most people get this infection in childhood and it produces no illness. It reactivates later in life in people who have suppressed immune systems.
The virus damages myelin, the material that wraps around nerves. This impairs nerve function.
PML is most common in people with supressed immune systems. Supressed immune systems may be the result of:
Symptoms progress over weeks and may include:
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. Tests may include:
Treatment focuses on strategies to improve the immune system. If you have HIV, your doctor will most likely prescribe antiretroviral medications to treat this condition. If PML has resulted from the drug natalizumab, your doctor will have you stop taking this drug and may recommend a
plasma exchange
to remove the drug from your blood system.
There are no current guidelines to prevent exposure to the JC virus. If you have a suppressed immune system, get treatment to minimize your risk.

"The clean lines of the card's design, the sharpness of the lettering nd font used, the quality of the pearlized paper board stock, and the dimensions of the card all work extremely well together to make a superb card. Absolutely thrilled with it and will certainly order more and also a new design from tinyprints in the future."
"We have reordered this card 3 or 4 times. I gave it to my husband as a Christmas stocking gift and he LOVED it. Now he wants only this card and keeps asking me to reorder. We purchase 250 at a time so imagine how many he has already given out. We do it in grey with his name in a wine color. Very masculine."
"I just received my cards and I love them!! I wish that there were coordinating products like stationary and invites. I would like to see more products available for businesses!"
"I made some custom cards for my band & was able to put our logo + website, info etc. on one side and our picture on the other. The designer was able to fix the tiny color variation issue with our logo & the cards made it out to us in Hawaii before the estimated shipping arrival date! :)"
"We were so pleased with how these business cards turned out. We used them as a thank you gift for our intern and just put her name, phone number and email address on the front. The quality of the printing and the paper are excellent and she loved them! Another fabulous product from Tiny Prints!"

You can buy a chain saw one day, and try to buy a part for it a month later, only to find they don't carry that brand any more. They parts they sell are usually third party "one size fits all" parts, that fit every brand but the one you own.
March 19 (Bloomberg) — Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the world's largest retailer, plans to award $2 billion in extra compensation to about 1 million U.S. hourly workers this year after sales jumped in the recession (average of $2,000 per worker). The Arkansas-based retailer is benefiting from record sales in the fourth quarter that boosted annual revenue by 7.2% to $401 billion.
The amount of the bonuses, profit sharing, discounts and 401(k) and stock-plan contributions being given to employees compares with the $1.8 billion Wal-Mart distributed last year. Payments to employees include $933.6 million in bonuses today.

Cuban Davidoffs
James Suckling
From the Print Edition:
Winston Churchill, Autumn 93
Last September, Edward Sahakian, the owner of Davidoff of London, received an inquiry from a local accountant on behalf of his Hong Kong client for a large stock of Cuban Davidoff cigars, the No. 1 and No. 2 sizes. At first the well-respected tobacconist didn't find the request out of the ordinary since all of his Cuban Davidoff cigars had started to become collectors' items after the end of their production in Havana in 1991 . However, Sahakian was a bit overwhelmed when the accountant ordered 5,000 of the No. 1's and 2,000 of the No. 2's, with a total price tag of $115,000.
"He could have bought a small house for the same price, but he obviously prefers cigars," says Sahakian, puffing away on a Cuban Davidoff Ambassadrice in his London shop this summer. "He's done a very wise thing. One day those cigars will be worth several times' than he paid for them."
Davidoff cigars from Cuba have quickly become the most sought after smoke among serious cigar aficionados. They are attractive for their good quality, but they are now coveted for their rarity and considered a "must have" for anyone interested in the best handmade Havanas. Demand can only increase as the Dominican Republic-produced Davidoffs replace those from Cuba. That is happening quite rapidly. The first of the "new generation of Davidoffs"--as the brand owners, Group Oettinger of Basel, Switzerland, call the Dominican cigars--began entering the world market in early 1990.
For many cigar smokers, however, nothing compares to the white oval band bearing the script type "Davidoff' and "Cuba" printed on its side. The Dominican version simply replaces Cuba with "Geneve." And there's no denying that the Dominican Davidoffs are very good in their own right. Many are the same size. Some even have the same names. There are some cosmetic differences; for instance, the Dominican wrappers are slightly lighter.
In tastings for CIGAR AFICIONADO over the past year, the Dominican Davidoffs have not risen to the same heights attained by the Cuban versions tested for this article. All 13 sizes of Cubans were reviewed, from the monumental 80 Aniversario--made especially for Zino Davidoff's eightieth birthday--to the small panetela-sized Ambassadrice. All rate from very good to outstanding. The Aniversario, for instance, scored 99 points, and the Davidoff 4000 came in with a 94. (See sidebar for notes and scores.) The depth and flavor of the Cuban Davidoffs are pronounced, but they still retain a smooth and refined character. To be fair, most of the cigars we tasted had about four to seven years of box age and were perfectly kept in temperature-controlled, humidified conditions. For that reason, we did not conduct a direct tasting comparison with the younger Dominican Davidoffs.
The ability to age well is one of the bench marks of Davidoff s Cuban cigars. Although many cigars do not improve with age, the Davidoffs are like vintage-dated red wine. In fact, Zino Davidoff, one of the brand's creators, always compared his Cuban products to great red wines, especially the Davidoff chateaux series, which bears the names of the five first growths of Bordeaux. Therefore, the extra aging contributed to the overall quality of the cigars in the test.
There has been a well-established black market for Davidoff Cubans in the United States for years, where only the Dominican version can be sold legally. As a result of disappearing stock worldwide, however, prices in America are up to three times the current retail price in Europe--and that's if you can find them. For instance, one connoisseur tried to find some 80 Aniversario recently and was told that the price per cigar was more than $100 and could go as high as $120. "I can find you a couple of boxes from a collector, but it's going to cost you," the connoisseur was told. Moreover, the collector was unwilling to break the boxes. It was all or nothing.
European merchants, particularly in London, France, and Switzerland, still have limited stocks of Cuban Davidoffs, although they are quickly running out. "I have already run out of [several sizes of] Davidoffs," says Sahakian with a sigh. "People often come into the shop and pick up a box, and they don't even realize what they are getting. I really shouldn't let them buy, but we can't be restrictive."
There are rumors of large stocks of Cuban Davidoffs still in Cuba and in such duty-free areas as Monte Carlo and Andorra. Some people even say that there are stockpiles at the warehouses of Davidoff's headquarters in Basel, but officials there deny this claim. The company, as well as most of its distributors, stopped selling Havana Davidoffs last December when Davidoff and Cuba's cigar distribution agency, Cubatabaco, came to an agreement. The accord, as stated in a press release in December 1991, said, "There will not be any more Davidoff cigars manufactured in Cuba or using Cuban tobacco, and the Davidoff Havanas will only be available until exhaustion of existing stocks, and in any event, not later than the end of 1992." (In practice, some Cuban Davidoffs still remain on the market, but not many.)
When the news hit the streets, cigar merchants such as Sahakian noticed an immediate increase in orders for Davidoff's Cuban cigars, although the demand appeared mostly in the form of large purchases from a limited number of customers. In London, most cigar merchants held their prices for Davidoff at normal levels. For instance, the Davidoff No. 1, 7 1/2 inches long by 38 ring gauge, is still available at about £280 (about $425) for a box of 25 in London while the slightly shorter No. 2 goes for £220 (about $334). A Davidoff 4000, 6 inches long by 42 ring gauge, still sells for £240 (about $364). "There's been a temptation to raise prices," admits Sahakian, who has stocks of various sizes. "But I don't believe in taking advantage of the situation. It would be an immediate gain but not a long-term one as far as customer relations."

Davioff was 100% Cuban, today It's just a seed.Bordeaux or Burgundy, It's still French wines, not as If It was from elsewhere in the world . That said, Cuban Tobacco IS the best in the world no matter what Is said. And I'm not Communist,But who cares . Even If Cuba Is Communist or Democrat , It will always have the best Tobacco.

Cassoday, Kansas
Cassoday is located in the Flint Hills of northern Butler (BU) County, north of El Dorado Lake on The Kansas Turnpike. The community, although small, has the amenities to be self sufficient. Cassoday is a place where travelers can stop and get the services they need while enjoying a more relaxed pace and a chance to rest before proceeding on their travels.
Photo courtesy of Carl Grunder, Cassoday Country Inn & Ranch
Large shipments of cattle are brought into Cassoday from all over the country to "go to grass" using the wonderful grasslands in the surrounding Flint Hills. The railroad, which came to Cassoday in 1906, used to bring in the cattle. Now cattle trucks do most of the shipping although trains still come through Cassoday with regularity.
Cassody is a popular spot for touring bicyclists to stop and camp in the city park or, if it's raining, take shelter in the church. On the first Sunday from March through November, motorcycles of any and all brands and their riders gather for the Cassoday Bike Run downtown for breakfast and to visit.

67% of the CEO
Daniel Servitje
I have been working at Grupo Bimbo full-time for more than 10 years
Pros – Fast paced, consumer brand driven company that reinvests in the business 80% of cash flow, has grown steadily for more than 68 years. Publicly traded in Mexico, yet run with many of the good things of a closely held, family business. Sincere concern about the well being (material, mental, professional and even personal) of their associates. Fosters an environment of respect, trust, fairness and where leaders care for the people as much as they care for the financial results. Don't be fooled, this is not a "country club" the work is hard, the pace is at times brutal, but the opportunities to lead and go places are really great. The company has operations in about 19 countries and has lots of room for growth in almost every market.
Cons – In some countries, a 6 day workweek can be challenging. Compensation is competitive but not aggressively so.
Advice to Senior Management – Focus on diversity. Insure that leaders in the U.S. understand the culture and values of Grupo Bimbo and embrace and practice them.
