Comedy Central Renews Workaholics for Two Seasons, Orders "Drunk History" Shorts to Series
The cast of Workaholics won't be punching out anytime soon.
Comedy Central has ordered two more seasons of the office single-camera comedy, the cable network announced Saturday at the winter TV previews.
"When I realized Workaholics is not a reality show, it made me appreciate the guys' talent that much more," Comedy Central's Head of Original Programming and Production, Kent Alterman said in a statement. "It only seems right that we would renew for two seasons."
Winter TV Preview: Get the scoop on all the new shows
Added stars Adam DeVine, Blake Anderson and Anders Holm, and director Kyle Newacheck: "We're stoked!"
All four come from the Internet sketch group Mail Order Comedy - through which the group was discovered by Comedy Central thanks to their YouTube videos.
Seasons 4 and 5 will each contain 13 episodes. Workaholics averaged 2 million total viewers for the first part of its third season, which premiered last summer. The second part of Season 3 kicks off on Wednesday, Jan. 16 at 10/9c.

Additionally, Comedy Central announced that they will turn Funny or Die's popular web series "Drunk History" into a half-hour series to premiere this coming summer.
"Drunk History" is a series of historical reenactments by a revolving door of celebrities presented by - you guessed it - drunk storytellers. Funny or Die creators Will Ferrell and Adam McKay will executive-produce the series, with Chris Henchy, Owen Burke, writer and director Jeremy Konner and creator and star Derek Waters.
Returning Winter Shows: Where we left off
"Will and I have always believed booze brings out truth. Sometimes that truth involves hitting on airport bar janitors or eating cheese fries at 4 a.m.," McKay said in a statement. "But in this case, we hope that truth will shine on our nation's history."
Drunk History's first season will consist of eight episodes.

Catherine Welch
Catherine Welch is news director at Rhode Island Public Radio. Before her move to Rhode Island in 2010, Catherine was news director at WHQR in Wilmington, NC. She was also news director at KBIA in Columbia, MO where she was a faculty member at the University Of Missouri School Of Journalism. Catherine has won several regional Edward R. Murrow awards and awards from the Public Radio News Directors Inc., New England AP, North Carolina Press Association, Missouri Press Association, and Missouri Broadcasters Association.
Now that she manages a full newsroom she files less regularly for NPR's All Things Considered, Morning Edition and Weekend Edition. In 2009 she was part of an NPR series on America's Battalion out of Camp Lejeune, NC following Marine families during the battalion's deployment to southern Afghanistan. And because Wilmington was the national test market for the digital television conversion, she became a quasi-expert on DTV, filing stories for NPR on the topic.
Catherine got her start in radio at her family's radio station in Florida with her weekly jazz show "Catherine Keeping You Company." Her very first interview was with Cab Calloway, and it remains the strangest one she's ever done. She will gladly tell you the story should you ask.
Before joining the public radio family, Catherine worked in television at KTVU in Oakland, CA and at the cable technology network formerly known as TechTV.
Since its inception in 1954, the event has survived rainstorms, genre wars and a few near-riots. Producer George Wein says it survives for the same reason jazz does — the musicians love to perform.
Not one note of recorded sound exists to document Buddy Bolden's genre-defining music. Still, rock musician Dan Pritzker is making not one, but two movies about him. The nearly mythic "King of Jazz" influenced Louis Armstrong, a key character in both films.

I recently read "Radically Condensed Instructions for Being Just as You Are" by J Jennifer Matthews. I thought it excellent, very thought-provoking and completely consistent with the perspective I discern in Zen teachings. actually, when I read it, I didn't think of it being other than a Zen Buddhist point of view. through her I was led to the work of Greg Goode and read his "Standing as Awareness", in which I became aware of the (existence of) Adavaita Vedanta teachings. they seem very similar and compatible with Zen philosophy for the most part, but they seem to soft-pedal the importance of meditation, which is, of course, essential to Zen practice. this seems a difference that makes all the difference.
can a Zen Buddhist learn from the study of writings of Adavaita Vedanta proponents? any thoughts or familiarity with this philosophy or Greg Goode?
thanks, -O

I came across this explanation from a Threads article:
Why the tomato? According to folklore, placing a tomato on the mantle of a new home guaranteed prosperity and repelled evil spirits. If tomatoes were out of season, families improvised by using a round ball of red fabric filled with sand or sawdust. The good-luck symbol also served a practical purpose—a place to store pins.Wow - your pin cushion performs the bonus task of repelling evil spirits! Neat. This seems plausible, I suppose, but it bothered me that the author didn't cite any sources. So, being the intrepid journalist that I am, I did a little more research on the old interwebs (not on any reputable sites, mind you), and here are a couple other explanations for the tomato shape.
This gets the award for the weirdest answer:
In many Renaissance households, people placed a tomato on their mantle as a way of containing evil in one evil object, thus helping to ensure prosperity for the family. But tomatoes eventually rot. So people resorted to stuffed models. And since the little cushions possessed a bit of voodoo magic, it held all the pins and needles in the house.Ah, so Renaissance families could practice voodoo against evil tomatoes. Duh!
And here's an answer that actually sounds like it has historical basis, but then just sort of runs out of steam at the end:
During the 15th century, metal pins were very expensive, and thus were usually stored in fine cases. During the Tudor Era, however, it became a common practice to use fancy cushions. Later, during the Victorian Era, parlor rooms were all the rage, and the goal of the typical housewife was to stuff it full of opulent clutter. Pincushions began to come in fancy shapes, such as fans, dolls, shoes, fruits, and vegetables. These cushions were displayed on tables and hung from walls. In the 1800's they began to be mass-produced, and the tomato proved to be the easiest to assemble because of its simple design.
I give this answer a big thumbs-down. I mean, lots of objects have simple designs that are easy to mass-produce. Also, the Victorian Era WAS the 1800s, so I don't know if this explanation would withstand a good fact-checking.
In any case, I think it's probably best to continue to use a tomato-shaped pin cushion to avoid voodoo spells, bring prosperity to your mantle, and show off the opulent clutter in your parlor.
P.S. If you're curious about the strawberry apendage on your tomato, I can tell you that it is an emery bag usesd to sharpen pins and needles, and all my sources agree on this. But . . . why is it a strawberry? I mean, who ever saw a strawberry growing out of a tomato? More research is obviously required!

Pearl River Community College honored six outstanding alumni Thursday, April 18, with induction into the PRCC Lifetime Achievement Hall of Fame.
Recognized for their accomplishments were L.D. Brinkman of Kerrville, Texas; Verlene Norton Cole of Oak Grove, George Dale of Clinton, Floyd Furr of Picayune, Mickey Hudson of Ellisville and Louis A. Hurst Jr. of Houston.
"This is a really, really special class," said Dr. William Lewis, PRCC president. "When you hear about some of the things they've done, it's amazing that they passed through Pearl River Community College."
The alumni were honored with a reception and dinner at Southern Oaks House and Gardens in Hattiesburg.
"Never in my wildest dreams did I think an old country girl from Oak Grove would receive such an award," Cole said.
Cole, the first female officer of what is now Bancorp South, received the college's Citizenship Award when she graduated in 1951 and since her retirement in 1989 has been active in the PRCC Alumni Association, Development Foundation and Wildcat Club.
Hudson, chief executive officer of Hudson's Inc., was a Pearl River student in the early 1960s.
"I did have a great experience at Pearl River a long time ago," he said. "Pearl River has been good to me. It's great to be a Wildcat."
A retired petroleum geologist, Furr counts four major decisions that led to his successful professional and personal life.
"The first was when I decided to go to Pearl River Junior College," he said. "After that, all the other decisions fell into place. I want to thank Pearl River college for putting me on the right road."
Dale, who served 32 years as Mississippi's elected insurance commissioner, was Baptist Student Union president and played on one of Pearl River's 13 state championship basketball teams.
"During the 51 years of my professional career, I've received a number of awards," he said. "I have to say being a member of the '59-'60 state championship basketball team has got to top them all."
But his time at the college provided more than a sports thrill, he said.
"In 1958-1960 when I was a Pearl River College … we all knew that two years at junior college would give us a better opportunity in this world," he said.
A Poplarville native, Hurst attended college at Pearl River for one year before serving in the Navy during World War II. H retired from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in 1982 as assistant director of the four-state Memphis region.
"I have many fond memories of Pearl River College and what I was taught there has served me very well in countless ways," he said.
An entrepreneur, cattle rancher and collector of western art, Brinkman came to Pearl River as manager of the football team under the late coach Dobie Holden. He credits Holden with teaching him to do things right the first time, a foundation of his success.
"The Mississippi community college organization is the best organization in the state," he said. "They don't get credit for it. They didn't get credit 60 years ago. Just think of all the kids who wouldn't go to college without it."
As part of a continuing partnership between the Lifetime Achievement Hall of Fame and PRCC's Honors Institute, students videotaped conversations with each of the honorees, asking them for advice.
"The folks that we induct tonight are setting the stage for these students," Lewis said.

Clayton Kershaw (14-8, 1.89) vs. Homer Bailey (10-10, 3.42).
Where are we with our knee-jerk thinking? The Dodgers have lost three straight for the first time since early June. They're beating up on bad teams but their only two series losses in the second half of the season have been to the Red Sox and Reds. We can't beat playoff-caliber teams? Of the rest of the Dodgers' regular-season opponents, only the Diamondbacks have a winning record — so we won't get to test that theory until the playoffs.
In the meanwhile, let's enjoy today's putative pitching duel between Kershaw, who's coming off two rough starts, and Bailey, who is riding a 14 1/3-inning scoreless streak. It's Clay vs. Homer. Ping Pong vs. Batman. Arise Africa vs. The Guy Who Broke Manny Ramirez's hand. Time for payback!

The "4" on the right-hand side of the puzzle, for example, could also form part of a "6" when moved.
Made in laser-cut acrylic and stainless steel by Siebenstein-Spiele. Based in Munster, Germany, Siebenstein-Spiele was founded in 1992. Although the company is mainly known for board games, Siebenstein-Spiele also makes many wooden puzzles, several of which have been designed by company founder Jürgen Reiche.

Although, I am always hyper stressed when I get to discover our monthly challenge, I nonetheless obstinately force myself to not get influenced by the sheer task that awaits me. And, I can tell you, that I need to gather a hell of a lot of courage in order to start baking without listening to those terrible demons of doubt whispering discouraging messages in my ear and telling me to quit because I don't have the capacity to go through it all without ending up feeling desperate and in tears!
This month's challenge is brought to us by the adventurous Hilda from Saffron And Blueberry and Marion from Il en Faut Peu Pour Etre Heureux. They have chosen a French Yule Log by Flore from Florilege Gourmand. And let me tell you that this recipe is particularly daring...
So, it is with not much confidence, but with a lot of willpower that I started to organize myself and to concentrate on the work to be done. After making all six different elements, I finally assembled my log with an immense feeling of relief and pride.
At the end of the day, I was kippered! Not only had I to go through the process of making the log, but I also had to wash dozens and dozens of dishes as well as ustensils as well as to put away things, so that my kitchen would not look like a crime scene anymore... I can tell you that, this evening, I slept like a little baby!
I won't say that this "French Yule Log" is really difficult to make as all elements demand no special skills, but it sure requires a considerable amount of organization and time, extreme patience and the adequate ustensils, as putting this treat together is quite a finicky and tricky task.
Anyway, once I had a good night's sleep, I was ready to enjoy the fruit of my labor. And, boy oh boy, it was worth every hour spent sweating, stressing and cursing in the kitchen as this marvelously luscious log is truly heavenly. A frozen chocolate delight that'll get you hooked!
I really want to thank Hilda from "Saffron And Blueberry" (France) and Marion at "Il en Faut Peu Pour Etre Heureux" (France) - trop bien ce challenge! - for having chosen that fantastic recipe!
See the past challenges here.
~ French Yule Log ~
Recipe by Flore from "Florilege Gourmand" (France).
Preparation time:
10 minutes + 15 minutes for baking
2 mixing bowls, hand or stand mixer with whisk attachment, spatula, baking pan such as a 10"x15" jelly-roll pan, parchment paper
You can use the Dacquoise for the bottom of your Yule Log only, or as bottom and top layers, or if using a Yule log mold (half-pipe) to line your entire mold with the biscuit. Take care to spread the Dacquoise accordingly. Try to bake the Dacquoise the same day you assemble the log to keep it as moist as possible.
2.8 oz (3/4cup + 1Tbsp / 80g) Almond meal
1.75 oz (1/2 cup / 50g) Confectioner's sugar
2Tbsp (15g) All-purpose flour
3.5oz (100g / ~100ml) or about
3 Medium egg whites
1.75 oz (4 Tbsp / 50g) Granulated sugar
1. Finely mix the almond meal and the confectioner's sugar. (If you have a mixer, you can use it by pulsing the ingredients together for no longer than 30 seconds).
2. Sift the flour into the mix.
3. Beat the eggs whites, gradually adding the granulated sugar until stiff.
4. Pour the almond meal mixture into the egg whites and blend delicately with a spatula.
5. Grease a piece of parchment paper and line your baking pan with it.
6. Spread the batter on a piece of parchment paper to an area slightly larger than your desired shape (circle, long strip etc...) and to a height of 1/3 inches (8mm).
7. Bake at 350°F (180°C) for approximately 15 minutes (depends on your oven), until golden. 8. Let cool and cut to the desired shape.
Preparation time:
20 minutes.
Stand or hand mixer with whisk attachment, thermometer, double boiler or equivalent, spatula.
You will see that a Pate a Bombe is mentioned in this recipe. A Pate a Bombe is a term used for egg yolks beaten with a sugar syrup, then aerated. It is the base used for many mousse and buttercream recipes. It makes mousses and buttercreams more stable, particularly if they are to be frozen, so that they do not melt as quickly or collapse under the weight of heavier items such as the crème brulee insert.
2.5 Sheets gelatin or 5g / 1 + 1/4 Tsp powdered gelatin
1.5 oz (3 Tbsp / 40g) Granulated sugar
1 1/2 Tsp (10g) Glucose or thick corn syrup
0.5 oz (15g) Water
50g Egg yolks (about 3 medium)
6.2 oz (175g) Dark chocolate, coarsely chopped
1.5 Cups (350g) Heavy cream (35% fat content)
1. Soften the gelatin in cold water (If using powdered gelatin, follow the directions on the package).
2. Make a Pate a Bombe: Beat the egg yolks until very light in colour (approximately 5 minutes until almost white).
2a. Cook the sugar, glucose syrup and water on medium heat for approximately 3 minutes (if you have a candy thermometer, the mixture should reach 244°F/118°C. If you do not have a candy thermometer, test the sugar temperature by dipping the tip of a knife into the syrup then into a bowl of ice water, if it forms a soft ball in the water then you have reached the correct temperature).
2b. Add the sugar syrup to the beaten yolks carefully by pouring it into the mixture in a thin stream while continuing to beat the yolks. You can do this by hand but it's easier to do this with an electric mixer.
2c. Continue beating until cool (approximately 5 minutes). The batter should become thick and foamy.
3. In a double boiler or equivalent, heat 2 tablespoons (30g) of cream to boiling. Add the chopped chocolate and stir until melted and smooth.
4. Whip the remainder of cream until stiff.
5. Pour the melted chocolate over the softened gelatin, mixing well. Let the gelatin and chocolate cool slightly and then stir in ½ cup (100g) of whipped cream to temper. Add the Pate a Bombe.
6. Add in the rest of the Whipped cream (220g) mixing gently with a spatula.
Preparation time:
10 minutes.
Pan, whisk. If you have plunging mixer (a vertical hand mixer used to make soups and other liquids), it comes in handy.
Because the ganache hardens as it cools, you should make it right before you intend to use it to facilitate piping it onto the log during assembly. Please be careful when caramelizing the sugar and then adding the cream. It may splatter and boil.
1.75 oz (4 Tbsp / 50g) Granulated sugar
4.5oz (2/3 cup – 1 Tbsp/ 135g) Heavy cream (35% fat content)
5 oz (135g) Dark chocolate, finely chopped
3Tbsp + 1/2tsp (45g) Unsalted butter softened
1. Make a caramel: Using the dry method, melt the sugar by spreading it in an even layer in a small saucepan with high sides. Heat over medium-high heat, watching it carefully as the sugar begins to melt. Never stir the mixture. As the sugar starts to melt, swirl the pan occasionally to allow the sugar to melt evenly. Cook to dark amber color (for most of you that means darker than last month's challenge).
2. While the sugar is melting, heat the cream until boiling. Pour cream into the caramel and stir thoroughly. Be very careful as it may splatter and boil.
3. Pour the hot caramel-milk mixture over the dark chocolate. Wait 30 seconds and stir until smooth.
4. Add the softened butter and whip hard and fast (if you have a plunging mixer use it). The chocolate should be smooth and shiny.
Preparation time:
10 minutes.
Small saucepan, baking sheet (if you make lace crepes). Double boiler (or one small saucepan in another), wax paper, rolling pin (or I use an empty bottle of olive oil).
Feuillete means layered (as in with leaves) so a Praline Feuillete is a Praline version of a delicate crisp.
3.5 oz (100g) Milk chocolate
1 2/3 Tbsp (25g) Unsalted butter
2 Tbsp (1 oz / 30g) Praline (see recipe here)
2.1oz (60g) Rice krispies or corn flakes or Special K
1. Melt the chocolate and butter in a double boiler.
2. Add the praline and the coarsely crushed lace crepes. Mix quickly to thoroughly coat with the chocolate.
3. Spread between two sheets of wax paper to a size slightly larger than your desired shape. Refrigerate until hard.
Preparation time:
15 minutes + 1h infusing + 1h baking.
Small saucepan, mixing bowl, baking mold, wax paper.
The vanilla crème brulée can be flavored differently by simply replacing the vanilla with something else e.g. cardamom, lavender, etc...
1/2 Cup (115g) Heavy cream (35% fat content)
1/2 Cup (115g) Whole milk
4 Medium-sized (72g) egg yolks
0.75 oz (2 Tbsp / 25g) Granulated sugar
1 Vanilla bean
1. Heat the milk, cream, and scraped vanilla bean to just boiling. Remove from the stove and let the vanilla infuse for about 1 hour.
2. Whisk together the sugar and egg yolks (but do not beat until white).
3. Pour the vanilla-infused milk over the sugar/yolk mixture. Mix well.
4. Wipe with a very wet cloth and then cover your baking mold (whatever shape is going to fit on the inside of your Yule log/cake) with parchment paper. Pour the cream into the mold and bake at 210°F (100°C) for about 1 hour or until firm on the edges and slightly wobbly in the center (You can bake it without a water bath since it is going to go inside the log - the aesthetics of it won't matter as much since it will be covered with other things - nonetheles it would be recommendable to use a water bath for the following reasons: you will get a much nicer mouth feel when it is done, you will be able to control its baking point and desired consistency much better - it bakes for such a long time that I fear it will get overdone without a water bath. Since it is baked in a pan and it is sometimes difficult to find another large pan to set it in for a water bath, even a small amount of water in your water bath will help the heat be distributed evenly in the baking process. Even as little as 1 inch will help).
5. Let cool and put in the freezer for at least 1 hour to firm up and facilitate the final assembly.
Preparation time:
25 minutes (10 minutes if you don't count softening the gelatin).
Small bowl, small saucepan.
Because the icing gelifies quickly, you should make it at the last minute. For other gelatin equivalencies or gelatin to agar-agar equivalencies, look at the notes for the mousse component.
I doubled the quantity.
4g / 1/2 Tbsp Powdered gelatin or 2 sheets gelatin
1/4 Cup (60g) heavy cream (35 % fat content)
2.1 oz (5 Tbsp / 60g) Granulated sugar
1/4 Cup (50g) Water 1/3 Cup (30g) unsweetened cocoa powder
1. Soften the gelatin in cold water for 15 minutes.
2. Boil the rest of the ingredients and cook an additional 3 minutes after boiling.
3. Add gelatin to the chocolate mixture. Mix well
4. Let cool while checking the texture regularly. As soon as the mixture is smooth and coats a spoon well (it is starting to gelify), use immediately.
When doing the assembly upside down with two pieces of Dacquoise, the order is:
1) Dacquoise
2) Mousse
3) Creme Brulee Insert
4) Mousse
5) Praline/Crisp Insert
6) Mousse
7) Ganache Insert
8) Dacquoise
A) Cut the Dacquoise into a shape fitting your mold and set it in there. If you are using an actual Yule mold which is in the shape of a half-pipe, you want the Dacquoise to cover the entire half-pipe portion of the mold.
B) Pipe one third of the Mousse component on the Dacquoise.
C) Take the Creme Brulee Insert out of the freezer at the last minute and set on top of the mousse. Press down gently to slightly ensconce it in the mousse.
D) Pipe second third of the Mousse component around and on top of the Creme Brulee Insert. E) Cut the Praline/Crisp Insert to a size slightly smaller than your mold so that it can be surrounded by mousse. Lay it on top of the mousse you just piped into the mold.
F) Pipe the last third of the Mousse component on top of the Praline Insert.
G) Freeze for a few hours to set. Take out of the freezer.
H) Pipe the Ganache Insert onto the frozen mousse leaving a slight eidge so that ganache doesn't seep out when you set the Dacquoise on top.
I) Close with the last strip of Dacquoise.
J) Freeze until the next day.
The next day:
1. Unmold the cake/log/whatever and set on a wire rack over a shallow pan.
2. Cover the cake with the icing. Let set.
3. Return to the freezer (You may decorate your cake however you wish. The decorations can be set in the icing after it sets but before you return the cake to the freezer or you may attach them on top using extra ganache or leftover mousse, etc...).
4. Transfer to the refrigerator no longer than 1/2 hour before serving as it may start to melt quickly depending on the elements you chose.
5. Serve

Ways You are Compensated
5-Level Uni-Level Compensation
This is our standard compensation plan that ALL affiliates qualify for, even those who are still in their free trial period. Basically, you are paid $1 per month, per domain, that is registered in your 5 level network. A uni-level compensation plan is the most simple plan in network marketing, and the key to our quick growth.
You are not limited by width. You can refer as many people as you want to, and so can those people that you refer, and so on.
Here's an example. You refer 5 people to our product/program. That pays you $5 per month. No big deal? Hang on, you'll see the power of this. Each of those 5 people then refer 5 of their own, so you're now getting paid an additional $25 per month on your "second level". Each of those 25 can refer as many as they want, but for consistency we'll say that they too refer 5 each. That's $125 in monthly commissions on your 3rd level. If the trend continues, you'll have $625 in monthly commissions on your 4th level, and $3,125 in monthly commissions on your 5th level.
That's a total of over $3,900 in monthly commissions for referring 5 people, and then teaching those people how to do the same and assisting them in growing their own organizations. Keep in mind that nobody is limited in how many people they can refer. Some of our affiliates personally refer hundreds of other affiliates. Just a couple of these "go-getters" in your organization can really blow your income off the charts. Here's a graphical example of our uni-level plan.
These figures are for educational purposes only
Earn an UNLIMITED Number of $100 Bonuses Each Week By Simply Referring FIVE New Confirmed Affiliates in a 7-day Contest Period.
You read that correctly! For every 5 paid new customers you refer in a one week period, you'll earn a $100 cash bonus. There is no limit! Refer 25 new paid customers in one week and you'll earn $500!
$5,000 Heavy Hitter BonusOur Heavy Hitter Bonus has been increased to $5,000! Any affiliate referring 1,000 or more paid affiliates in any consecutive 4 week period is eligible to receive the Heavy Hitter Bonus. The bar has been set high! Are you a heavy hitter? Show us what you're made of by referring 1,000 new affiliates in a month and you'll be taking home an extra $5,000 in addition to the thousands per month you'll quickly be making in residual commissions. |
Global Domains International, Inc. Announces Our NEW Infinity Bonus
Since we first launched our Income for Life™ affiliate program in May of 2004, we've had people asking us "How do I earn the BIG bucks in GDI?". We've been running incredible referral contests, with many reps earning thousands of dollars in bonus money per month.
However, for you serious players – the people who want to shoot for the moon – we're about to answer the BIG QUESTION, "How do I earn the big bucks in GDI?".
By getting paid on ALL levels, down to infinity, that's how!
Don't get us wrong, our current pay structure is paying out TREMENDOUS COMMISSIONS to those of you who are serious about building your GDI business (many already approaching 5 figures monthly) but this takes it to the next level – allowing the real "go getters" to reach a level of income they've only dreamed about until now.
How this works is still very simple.
Imagine being paid not only on 5 levels, but on levels 6 through INFINITY. That could amount to some BIG extra income from the same amount of work. That's what the Infinity Bonus is all about.
This will achieve the INFINITY OVERRIDE and you'll qualify to earn a 10% "unlimited levels" override, which pays down to the next qualifying "Infinity Override" on any given leg.
On the final day of each month, you must have a minimum of 10 personally-referred, active, paid accounts in good standing on your level 1, who each also have a minimum of 10 personally-referred, active, paid accounts in good standing on their level 1. In addition, you must have a total of 5000 or more active, paid accounts in good standing within the first 5 levels of your downline. Obviously, your own account must be an active, paid account in good standing as well.
Infinity overrides must be re-earned each month in accordance with the previously mentioned requirements. Earning the override one month, does not guarantee you the same override every month. If you fail to qualify after previously receiving the override, you remain eligible to try for it in future months as specified above.
The infinity override will extend all the way down throughout your entire downline below level 5, except in instances where someone else in your downline also achieves an infinity override for the same month. In such cases, the infinity override will be paid for your level 6 and below, except for the branch below you that also earned it. Payment on level 6 and below for that branch will be made to the lowest person in the downline achieving the override, as any one branch will never be paid twice for infinity overrides in the same month.
Additional commissions earned as a result of the infinity override only applies to levels 6 and below. Anything in levels 1-5 will be paid as usual for all affiliates. Likewise, this does not mean you will be paid a second time (double) for accounts in levels 1-5.
Will it be easy to qualify for the Infinity Override? Of course not. Nothing worth working towards ever is.
However, achieving this title and earning commissions on more than 5 levels IS SIMPLE. You do it the same way you referred your first member. Show the movie, then follow-up. Then, teach all of your front liners to do the same. If you keep doing this for as long as it takes, YOU can earn the Infinity Override. Sticking with the GDI program and your daily marketing plan is the key.
And, new affiliates that you refer, then transfer to one of your frontline members DO count towards the requirement.
We hope to have MANY affiliates earn the Infinity Override this year, including you!

type of material
An article in the form of a letter to the editor of The Nation was published as follows: 5.11-13 (pp. 1-7); 5.464-496 (pp. 7-45 of one draft and pp. 46-87 of another; the last two sentences of 5.481 were spliced by the editors of the Collected Papers). Also published as 1.560-562 were pp. 20-27 of still another draft. Omitted from publication: an analysis of James's definition of "pragmatism" (pp. 10-13 of one of the alternative sections). James's pragmatism again, followed by a discussion of his own position; the two distinct opponents of pragmatism (Absolutists and Positivistic Nominalists); pragmatism and religion; law distinguished from brute fast, not, as the nominalists would have it, by being a product of the human mind, but, as the realists assert, by being a real intellectual ingredient of the universe; triadic predicates as always having an intellectual basis, the evidence for which is inductive; thoughts regarded as signs, with signs functioning triadically; three kinds of interpretants emotional, energetic, and logical; the distinction between association and suggestion; the syllogism as an associative suggestion; "corollarial" and "theoric" reasoning, of which an example of theoric deduction is the "Ten Point Theorem" of Van Standt (pp. 10-56 of a long draft from which pp. 20-27 were published). The three kinds of interpretants of signs; ultimate intellectual interpretants; pragmatism and common sense, with the meaning of critical common sense explained (pp. 43-59 of an alternative section of the long draft numbered 10-56 and described above). Kernel of pragmatism; concepts equated with mental signs; the object and interpretant of a sign distinguished; the problem of ultimate, or "naked," meaning; existential meanings; the meaning of an intellectual concept; qualities of feeling as meanings of signs, where qualities are neither thoughts nor existential events; the distinction between real and immediate (as represented by a sign) object, with immediate objects resembling emotional meaning and real objects corresponding to existential meaning; mathematical concepts as examples of logical meaning; the relationship of logical meaning to desires and habits (pp. 11-34 of another alternative section). Object and interpretant (meaning); the different units of interpretants (meanings); pragmatic definition and a prediction that pragmatism will occupy the same position in philosophy as the doctrine of limits occupies in mathematics (pp. 14-25 of an alternative section of the one described immediately above). Kernel of pragmatism; theory of signs; by inference a sign first comes to be recognized as such; the elementary modes of inference (pp. 12-30 of an alternative section). The divisions of geometry; a problem in topics; the Census Theorem and Listing Numbers; the function of consciousness; concepts and habits; the vulnerability of James and Schiller arising from their (apparent) denial of infinity, including an infinite Being (pp. 62-77 of still another alternative section). An attempt to define "sign"; the sense in which utterer and interpreter are essential to signs; the immediate and real objects of signs; a brief note on the Census Theorem (pp. 12-90, with the exception of pp. 46-87 which were published).

After the JD 2: A Longitudinal Study of Careers in Transition, 2007-2008, United States (ICPSR 33584)

Summary View help for Summary
The After the JD (AJD) project is a longitudinal study that is designed to track the careers of a nationally representative cohort of lawyers admitted to the bar in the year 2000. The first wave of the After the JD Study (AJD1) [ICPSR 26302] provided a snapshot of the personal lives and careers of this cohort about three years after they began practicing law. The second wave of the After the JD project (AJD2) seeks to illuminate the progression of lawyers' careers through roughly seven years in practice. The seventh year marks a crucial period in the careers of young lawyers. At the same time that they are facing important career decisions, these young lawyers are experiencing significant personal decisions about marriage and having children. AJD2 sought to locate and survey the entire original sample that was constructed in AJD1, even if a sample member had not been located or surveyed in AJD1. Only those individuals found to be ineligible for the study because they did not meet the required time period for obtaining their law degree and passing the bar were excluded. AJD2 obtained completed surveys of 3,705 eligible respondents, which includes 70.4 percent of the respondents to AJD1 (a group referred to as AJD1 Respondents) and 26.9 percent of those who were not surveyed in wave 1 (a group referred to as AJD1 Nonrespondents). The AJD2 data collection effort was launched in 2007 and completed in early 2008, with an overall response rate of 50.6 percent of eligible participants. As the legal profession has become more diverse in terms of entrants, it is critical to understand how women, men and women of color, individuals from less advantaged economic backgrounds, and other traditionally disadvantaged groups build careers. To examine the experiences of these groups at distinctive stages of their professional lives and to compare their career experiences to those of their peers, investigators were able to collect information about whether respondents' experiences were different from the outset or whether career trajectories diverge over time, what career strategies appear most successful for young lawyers, and whether these strategies vary by gender, race, and class; by legal market; by the selectivity of the law school from which lawyers graduate; or other dimensions. The AJD2 dataset allows for the analysis of a broad range of questions about the careers of lawyers and the social organization of the American legal profession. For example, some of the topics the study examines are: (1) demographic characteristics; (2) job mobility; (3) career satisfaction; (4) convergence/divergence in the career patterns of women and minorities; (5) indications of continuing inequality by gender; (6) family formation and the effects on professional careers; (7) career trajectories. AJD2 aims to provide a solid basis for future efforts to understand the changing character of legal careers. The final phase of the AJD2 data collection ended before the onslaught of the global financial crisis in the fall of 2008. Consequently, the data do not account for the profound effects of these turbulent events. The third wave of the study (AJD3) anticipates investigating these issues and many other similarly important transitions.

Sample View help for Sample
The AJD study utilizes a two-stage scientific sampling approach, first selecting among metropolitan areas (or non-metropolitan portions of states) to obtain a wide geographic and population size distribution of geographic areas, and second, selecting individuals who meet individual eligibility criteria. In the first stage, the nation was divided into 18 strata by region and size of the new lawyer population. Within each stratum one primary sampling unit (PSU) was selected -- metropolitan area, portion of a state outside large metropolitan areas, or entire state -- was chosen. The PSU's included all four major markets, those with more than 2000 lawyers (Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, and Washington, DC); 5 of the 9 large markets, those with between 750 and 2,000 lawyers; and 9 of the remaining smaller markets. In the second stage, individuals were sampled from each of the PSU's at rates that would, combined, generalize to the national population. Additionally, an oversample of 1,465 new lawyers from minority groups (Blacks, Hispanic, and Asian American) was added. The final sample included just over 9,192 lawyers in the 18 PSU's. More information about sampling is available in "After the JD II: Second Results of a National Study of Legal Careers," a joint publication of the NALP Foundation for Law Career Research and Education and the American Bar Foundation (2009).

Weight View help for Weight
This study contains three weight variables: BWT_NAT_NR, BWT_MIN_NR and BWT_COMB_NR. Variable BWT_NAT_NR is a national sample selection weight adjusted for nonresponse. This weight should be used with the National Sample Cases when making estimates of the characteristics of the population represented by the Nation Sample. Variable BWT_MIN_NR is a minority sample selection weight adjusted for nonresponse. This weight should be used when making estimates of the characteristics of minority persons. Variable BWT_COMB_NR is a joint nation/minority sample selection weight adjusted for nonresponse. The weight takes into account the possibility that an individual could be selected into both the National and Minority Samples, thus it adjusts for the probability of dual selection.
