FORT WORTH, Texas (Nov. 29, 2016) – With a proven track record of awarding numerous credentials focused on entrepreneurship, Tarrant County College now is extending its commitment to cultivating an entrepreneurial culture in the Tarrant County community.
In November, TCC Chancellor Eugene V. Giovannini, Ed.D., signed the Presidents for Entrepreneurship Pledge—an initiative of the National Association for Community College Entrepreneurship (NACCE), of which Giovannini is board chairman. By taking the pledge, Giovannini signals TCC's dedication to supporting future entrepreneurs on campus as well as local startups and small businesses.
"Entrepreneurship and innovation represent a powerful combination to create new economic opportunities and new prosperity across the region and throughout the country," said Giovannini. "Because of community colleges' accessibility and close ties to the community, we are uniquely positioned to support entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial methods on our campuses and in the surrounding areas."
As part of the pledge, Giovannini and the College will expand internal and external teams dedicated to entrepreneurship; work to increase entrepreneurs' engagement with TCC; incorporate industry trends into curricular planning; hold industry-specific entrepreneurship events; and, leverage College and community assets to support innovation and job creation.
The small business sector adds more net new jobs to the American economy than large businesses, according to the U.S. Small Business Administration. In the first three quarters of 2014, small businesses brought 1.4 million new jobs to the national marketplace. The most recent data show that small business openings are outpacing closures.
TCC offers the Entrepreneurship and Small Business Management Program, which allows students to earn an Associate of Applied Science, certificate or marketable skills award on Northwest Campus. Students are prepared to start their own ventures or continue their education at a university. Community and Industry Education Services provides an Entrepreneurship Certificate Program, a noncredit fast track to small business development skills, at South Campus.
More than 165 community college leaders across the country and internationally have joined Giovannini in signing the Presidents for Entrepreneurship Pledge. Learn more on the NACCE website.

TCC Police Chief to Receive National Policing Briefing
FORT WORTH, Texas (Sept. 27, 2016) Tarrant County College Police Chief Shaun Williams is in Washington, D.C., this week participating in a law enforcement executives briefing by the President's Task Force on 21st Century Policing at the White House.
The 11-member Task Force was established by President Barak Obama in an Executive Order on Dec. 18, 2014, to identify "best practices and offering recommendations on how policing practices can promote effective crime reduction while building public trust." Co-chairs were Charles Ramsey, commissioner of the Philadelphia Police Department, and Laurie Robinson, professor at George Mason University.
Recommendations, released in a final report May 18, 2015, are organized around six main topic areas, called pillars, and include action items. Pillars are Building Trust and Legitimacy, Policy and Oversight, Technology and Social Media, Community Policing and Crime Reduction, Officer Training and Education and Officer Safety and Wellness.
Since his primary focus for the TCC police department has been on Pillar Five: Training and Education, Williams said he will take advantage of sessions providing more insight in that area.
Recommendations for Pillar Five include support from the federal government for "development of partnerships with training facilities across the country to promote consistent standards for high quality training and establish training innovation hubs involving universities and police academies."
Williams was named TCC's Chief of Police in 2011. A retired Arlington police officer and former operations lieutenant at Cedar Valley College, he has served in numerous policing roles including patrol officer, narcotics/organized crime detective, school resource officer and internal affairs division sergeant.
He is a graduate of Texas Christian University, where he received a Master of Liberal Arts in 2000, and of Dallas Baptist University, where he received a Bachelor of Applied Arts and Science in 1997. He holds a Master Peace Officer Certification and was named the 2012 Outstanding Administrator by the Texas Association of College and University Police Administrators.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Media interested in interviewing Chief Williams about his task force briefing may contact 817-515-1542 to schedule an interview.

FORT WORTH, Texas (May 20, 2016) – Following a national search, Tarrant County College Board of Trustees Thursday announced the selection of two finalists for chancellor, the top administrative leadership post at the College, the 12th largest institution of higher education in the United States.
Finalists are Eugene V. Giovannini, Ed.D., founding president of Maricopa Corporate College in Scottsdale, Ariz., and Barbara Kavalier, Ph.D., district president at Navarro College in Corsicana.

The board is expected to name the sole finalist for chancellor at a special board meeting on June 9. Following a 21-day period, as specified by Texas Education Code, the appointment as chancellor will be official.
Giovannini has served the Maricopa County Community College District in Arizona since 2002, including 11 years as president of Gateway Community College in Phoenix. He began his community college career in 1983 at Virginia's Eastern Shore Community College as an instructor for two years before becoming chair of Office Technologies at Broome Community College in New York.
In 2014, Giovannini was appointed to the board of the National Association for Community College Entrepreneurship.

Tarrant County College District, UTA launch Early Transfer Identification Program
Initiative will ease the path for more two-year college students to earn bachelor's degreesFORT WORTH, Texas – Tarrant County College District and The University of Texas at Arlington announce an innovative and collaborative partnership designed to strengthen the workforce by increasing the number of North Texans who have a college degree.
The Early Transfer Identification Program, or E-TIP, enables the two institutions to identify potential transfer students early in their academic careers, create a UTA admissions record for prospective transfer students and guide each student along a clear pathway to a college degree.
The program will streamline the UTA application process for participating TCCD students and will help them achieve an affordable four-year degree at a predictable cost. First-time-in-college students at TCC will be eligible for the guaranteed tuition plan at UTA which provides for tuition at UTA to remain at a constant rate for the four years from their start at TCC.
E-TIP is a critical component of the two institutions' response to the state's 60x30TX plan, which calls for at least 60 percent of Texans ages 25 to 34 to have a college degree or a certificate by 2030. Currently, about 38.5 percent of young Texans hold a degree or certificate.
"I am pleased that UTA and TCC are forging stronger partnerships to provide smooth and integrated pathways for students to complete their bachelor's degrees through a combination of studies at our two institutions," UTA President Vistasp M. Karbhari said. "A bachelor's degree is increasingly needed for students to achieve their full potential and to access the economic opportunity that has long been the hallmark of our great state. Academe needs to do more to facilitate excellence and access in higher education at levels affordable to our students, and the E-TIP program provides a step in the right direction."
Angela Robinson, acting chancellor for the Tarrant County College District, noted that fewer than 23 percent of students enrolled in a community college statewide currently advance to a four-year institution.
"Students come to Tarrant County College for many different reasons, from career enhancement to additional technical knowledge. But a large percentage of students begin their higher education journey on our campuses and will leave TCC well prepared to earn their bachelor's degree," Robinson said. "This new partnership will have an immediate positive impact by introducing students early to UTA, providing them a clear academic path toward degree completion and giving them the advising resources they need to succeed."
The program also includes:
• An agreement that TCCD and UTA will regularly share relevant data about students enrolled in an associate's degree plans to create an early UTA admission record for two-year college students. Prospective transfer students enrolled in an associate degree plan will be pre-admitted to UTA and will not need to file a separate application.
• A "reverse articulation" agreement that will ensure that appropriate UTA course credits count toward a Tarrant County College associate degree so that more students who enroll in the two-year college will earn a degree from their first institution.
• Regular office hours and meeting space for UTA admissions counselors embedded on Tarrant County College campuses to advise transfer students on degree plans and which courses will count toward an ultimate bachelor's degree in the selected major. Admissions counselors will help prospective transfer students avoid courses that won't count toward their major, saving money and time toward degree completion.
• A UTA-led workshop each semester for potential transfer students on each participating TCCD campus.
• An annual special UTA campus tour experience for students participating in the E-TIP program.
• A limited number of tickets to UTA special events and athletics competitions for participating E-TIP students.
The UTA-TCCD program comes as the University is renewing its emphasis on prospective, newly admitted and current transfer students. Both institutions are working to increase the number of college graduates each produces and to help students manage college costs.
UTA is Texas' top choice for transfer students, with 5,750 new undergraduate transfer students enrolled in Fall 2015. U.S. News & World Report ranked UTA the third-largest destination in the nation for transfer students based on its 2015 survey of undergraduate programs.
About 67 percent of incoming UTA students in Fall 2015 were transfers from other four- and two-year campuses. Tarrant County College is the largest provider of transfer students to UTA each year. Almost 1,800 TCC students have transferred to UTA so far during the the 2015-2016 academic year with more enrolling for summer sessions.
TCC Seeks Firm for National Search for Chancellor
FORT WORTH, Texas (Jan. 13, 2016) – Tarrant County College District, the nation's 12th-largest higher education institution, is requesting proposals from executive search firms and organizations to conduct the search for a chancellor, the top administrative leadership post at the institution.
The deadline for submission is Thursday, Feb. 4. A copy of the Request for Proposal (RFP) is available on the TCC web site at:
Board members approved the development of an RFP for a professional chancellor search firm last November. TCC General Counsel and Vice Chancellor Angela Robinson has been serving as acting chancellor since TCC Chancellor Erma Johnson Hadley passed away in early October.
TCC Board President Louise Appleman said, "Our Board has unanimously determined that a national search will help us identify the best leader for our 100,000 students, almost 5,000 faculty and staff and the taxpayers who support our mission."
Appleman also said the board plans to communicate with students, faculty, staff and the community throughout the process.
TCC Board Announces National Search for New Chancellor
FORT WORTH, Texas (Nov. 16, 2015) The Tarrant County College Board of Trustees today announced a national search for a chancellor, the top administrative leadership post at the institution, which is the 12th largest institution of higher education in the United States.
Board members approved the development of a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a professional chancellor search firm. TCC General Counsel and Vice Chancellor Angela Robinson has been serving as acting chancellor since TCC Chancellor Erma Johnson Hadley passed away in early October.
"Our Board has unanimously determined that a national search will help us identify the best leader for our 100,000 students, almost 5,000 faculty and staff and the taxpayers who support our mission," said TCC Board President Louise Appleman.

The board expects to select a search firm in early 2016. "The Board will continue to communicate with students, faculty and staff and the community throughout the process," Appleman said.
TCC Connect Receives SACSCOC Accreditation
FORT WORTH, Texas (October 28, 2015) Tarrant County College Connect Campus, originally launched as an administrative division that manages the College's eLearning, Weekend College and Dual Credit programs, recently received accreditation from the Southern Commission of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges Association as a sixth TCC campus.
Accreditation provides assurance that TCC's online offerings meet the same standards for quality, rigor and transferability as its face-to-face programs. As part of its accreditation, TCC Connect is authorized to offer 18 degrees fully online in the areas of Business and Office Technology.
"Today, our students are more mobile, have more responsibilities and are eager to enter the workforce as quickly as possible," said Carlos Morales, president of TCC Connect. "These special needs demand a flexible learning environment that is in tune with their learning styles and busy lives."
TCC Connect was established in summer 2013 as an administrative division responsible for eLearning, Dual Credit and Weekend College. From fall 2014 to fall 2015, TCC Connect has experienced the most growth in its Weekend College program. Enrollment has grown 273 percent from 154 students to 575. Through its accelerated Weekend College program, TCC provides students the opportunity to earn an associate degree in 18 months or less in a flexible format that includes online and face-to-face classes.
Enrollment in TCC's eLearning program is up 28 percent from 15,178 students to 19,400.
The Dual Credit program has grown 11.3 percent from 6,550 students to 7,294. Dual Credit provides TCC a unique opportunity to create a college-going culture in partnership with area independent school districts.
TCC Connect will be located in downtown Fort Worth at 444 N. Henderson Street.
"In an era when it is rare to see new institutions being created, the vision and determination of TCC's late Chancellor Erma Johnson Hadley and the support of the board of trustees allowed us to establish a campus to deliver academic opportunities to non-traditional students," said TCC Board President Louise Appleman. "We are very excited about this milestone for TCC. Only a few institutions in this country have achieved what we have accomplished. No one outside our leadership thought we could get it done as quickly as we did."

When buying a laptop for Linux
When a new laptop is bought for Linux, a lot of attention has to be paid in order to make sure that it would be compatible with the Linux. Since the hardware compatibly is great, you need not worry too much. Most of the personal computers were built just aiming at windows and other operating systems, so may not be extremely compatible with Linux Operating systems. So when you have fixed on using Linux, it would be best to do ample research so as to ensure that you would not have any problems later on.
Now, there are many laptops in the market that has preinstalled Linux. That is quite a good choice if you are particular about Linux and not quite a techno guru. This would also ensure that, Linux would be well supported. Once you encounter any issue, they (the support group) will resolve all of it with immediacy rather than a manual installation.

The boundaries between branch-based and online-based sales are crumbling. The assumption that customers use the physical and virtual channels only sequentially for the same matter is a thought trap. Today customers use these communication options in parallel. The "operated" website with personal advice is transforming from a "nice to have" to a "must have". Wu¨stenrot Bank is a pioneer in this respect, with an innovative operated online service. In an interview with the authors, Markus Malz, Head of Product Development at Wu¨stenrot Bank, described the advantages of the operated online service as follows: "Wustenrot Bank uses the chat function to conduct the dialogue exactly where the customer's specific questions arise: on our website, while surfing through our product pages or in the completion process. Generally, of course, we try to give the user all the information required for his or her actions on screen. However there may still be details that do not get noticed. All that is needed in such a case is to pose a brief question during a chat—and the user does not have to search for ages for the desired information. The attractiveness of this solution is obvious, especially compared to the telephone: no media break for the customer, real-time communication without waiting times and the preservation of anonymity" (Interview with Berger and Liebetrau 2012).
The fixed costs of branch-based operations, the removal of the need to visit a bank physically, the boom in social communities and above all in cheaper bank services by direct banks are all forcing banks to engage with operated online services. The idea is to offer customers a differentiated personal contact, also online, with sinking prices. Often, the current configuration of the business models is not yet able to take the necessary steps to adequately and proactively control the conversion of these business models. One key hypothesis is that, in future, customers will be sensitive to price when deciding among basic online services at favourable conditions and value-added advice. In addition, the parallel use of channels will become a necessary element of business models.
At the same time, banks are testing new technological approaches to operation
and advice in the operated branches and online as part of developing their operated websites. In future, ATMs and bank statement printers will be used more intensively for preor after-sales consultations. The mobile phone or tablet can be used as a consultation tool for simple products without much need for explanation—such as travel insurance—including completion processing. Poster advertising with QR codes can highlight the product in the branches. The customer scans the QR code and is directed to the landing page of the bank with all required information. If the customer wants to buy the product, he or she can do so immediately. "One click" purchasing processes, like those familiar from Amazon, set the benchmark and the underlying philosophy. Where required, customers can receive personal advice directly in the branch, or use the operated website service.
Future-viable approaches for matching customers and advisors use combinations and gradations. They integrate the hybrid customer behaviour and the current situation (context) of the customer. These days, customers still select their channels almost randomly and depending on the situation. It should be noted that customers who switch between different sales channels—so-called "channel hoppers"—are particularly loyal as long as they are provided with a purchase option in every channel (EY 2013).

Corner Light Softly Illuminates Little-Used Interior Spaces
Check out how to make a brilliant DIY corner lamp @istandarddesign
Corner lamp. Hacerlo con cable blanco
A light where it's most needed, in the dark corners of your room. It seems like no matter how many lights I turn on the corners always seem so dark. After a little homework the only corner lighting solution I found was this $900 lamp by Peter Bristol that was made for Established & Sons, a designer furniture company. While his light is stunning, the price tag was not. A little more digging revealed a DIY attempt, but it's incomplete and doesn't have instructions. Taking matters into my own…

In April 2 testimony, NTIA Administrator Lawrence Strickling reiterated his pledge not to relinquish the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority function to foreign powers or the International Telecommunications Union.
A U.S. move to cede its supervisory authority over the domain name system, one of key pieces of management architecture that makes the global Internet work, is raising hackles among some Republicans who worry that it could lead to the United Nations or foreign powers gaining more control over what does and does not appear online.
At issue is the current Internet Assigned Numbers Authority contract. Currently the National Telecommunications and Information Agency, a Commerce Department component, contracts with the U.S.-based non-profit Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers to make sure that registered domain names in .com map to the assigned numerical slots. NTIA recently moved, as part of a long-standing policy with backing of the executive branch and Congress, to allow for an international, multi-stakeholder group composed of private industry, governance groups and other institutions, to take over management of the key IANA function.
At an April 2 House hearing, NTIA Administrator Lawrence Strickling reiterated his pledge not to relinquish the IANA function to foreign powers or the International Telecommunications Union, a U.N. technology agency.
"The neutral and judgment free administration of the technical DNS and IANA functions has created an environment in which the technical architecture has not been used to interfere with the exercise of free expression or the free flow of information. Any transition of the NTIA role must maintain this neutral and judgment free administration, thereby maintaining the global interoperability of the Internet," Strickling told the Subcommittee on Communications and Technology of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. "NTIA has repeatedly said that we will not accept a proposal that replaces the NTIA role with a government-led or inter-governmental organization solution."
The proposed transition has wide support from industry, with AT&T, Verizon, Microsoft and the Internet Association all backing the move to privatize the U.S. government role in overseeing the global address book for the Internet. The government has plans dating back to the 1990s to cede control of the IANA function. In 2012, the House and Senate passed concurrent resolutions backing the NTIA's plan to, "continue working to implement the position of the United States on Internet governance that clearly articulates the consistent and unequivocal policy of the United States to promote a global Internet free from government control and preserve and advance the successful multi-stakeholder model that governs the Internet today."
Nonetheless, there is an abiding concern among some members that the transition could empower foreign governments, particularly Russia and China, to expand their control over the architecture of the Internet, or help fuel a push to put key functions under U.N. control.
Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) is among the members concerned that the NTIA might be moving too quickly -- and might be too trusting of an international multi-stakeholder process. "In a perfect world, ICANN and IANA would be fully privatized," she said, while expressing concern that once the U.S. relinquished its authority, it would not be in a position to guarantee the free flow of information across the Internet.
"If things do go astray, is there a path back for NTIA?" asked subcommittee Chairman Greg Walden, an Oregon Republican.
Blackburn and Rep. John Shimkus (R-Ill.) dropped legislation this week with an eye to putting the brakes on NTIA's plans. The measure would require a Government Accountability Office report on any transition proposals offered by NTIA. In reality, NTIA has two years to come up with a workable plan before the IANA contract expires, so the bill, even if signed into law, might not have much impact on the scheduled transition.

At its core, Eniro's business concept is simple and – despite the technological shift – the same as when Eniro began operating 130 years ago: making it easier for buyers and sellers to meet.
Our business model is based on the interaction between users, customers and channels, which are all mutually dependent on each other.
Creating an attractive search service requires a current database and a search algorithm that generates accurate search results. We buy raw data, i.e., basic information such as addresses, registered company names and phone numbers from information registers maintained by telecom operators and Lantmäteriet (the Swedish National Land Survey), for example. Since such raw data includes legal company names, a large share of the data is refined through manual updating by our force of more than 900 sales representatives, who speak in person with our approximately 200,000 customers every year.
This data is further augmented by website crawling, which adds additional information, such as business hours, to the raw data we have compiled.
All information is stored in our database, which is the hub for everything we do. The database is our most important asset and the foundation for all of our product development.
Today we have more than 8 million unique visitors a week who perform local and financial searches from desktop computers or mobile devices. These 8 million users are also 8 million potential buyers for our customers, and they perform nearly a billion searches every year, which represent contact opportunities.
In all of our local search products we sell advertising packages in the form of rankings, i.e., how high up the advertiser appears on a result list when a user performs a search. The pricing varies, depending on the customer's desired placement on a result list. A higher placement generates more clicks and thereby warrants a higher price. Rankings on result lists are also extremely important for our customers' ability to reach their customers – who are our users. We know that rankings on search result lists make a difference. As a case in point, we know that an advertiser in the number two spot receives 50% more clicks that an advertiser in spot three.
Advertising packages are usually sold as an annual subscription with 12 months' advance payment. For larger companies, other types of payment models are also used, such as PPP (pay perperformance), where customers pay for a certain number of clicks, visits or viewings, for example.
Our users search actively for contact information for a company when they are looking to buy a product or service, but regardless of whether they prefer to use our platforms for local search, social media services or Google searches from a desktop computer, a smartphone, a smart watch or a TV, our goal is to offer a total digital marketing solution to our customers. We are therefore working together with a number of different partners to offer our customers complementary products in digital marketing.
Printed telephone directories (Print) are now only available locally as a complement to our digital marketing products and are delivered primarily to select target groups at the local level. We will continue to offer our directory information service (Voice), along with more qualified services by phone, as long as users continue to use the service and it has satisfactory profitability.
Higher user benefit leads to more traffic, which attracts advertisers. All customers receive result reports on a regular basis that show the traffic generated by Eniro's search services. In this way, customers can see the impact of their marketing and measure the return on their investment. Customers that monitor their marketing impact via Eniro's result reports have a higher repeat purchase rate than those that do not regularly take an interest in their advertising results. Eniro is striving to help customers to a greater extent in seeing the opportunities and impact of their marketing investment.
One way Eniro will achieve this is by being more perceptive and improving its dialog with advertisers. By working from individual customers' current needs and market situations, Eniro will increasingly focus on guiding its customers through the digital marketing process and offer customized solutions. These can entail, for example, price models, seasonal offers, or specific solutions for selected market segments.
Eniro's stock is listed on Nasdaq Stockholm. The company's headquarter is located in Kista, outside Stockholm.

With fall upon us, we feel the phantom pain of an impending new semester, with its school supplies, ill-fitting clothes, glowering martinets and playground cliques. We've been out of school for decades, and yet the feeling — laced with anxiety and dizzy expectation — never quite goes away.
This issue touches on our eternal return to the classroom, but it's also packed with our inimitable assortment of raves, faves, rants and screeds. We'll be talking about — among other things — birthday surprises, the you're/your conundrum, thesaurus-lust, the new hardcore dance craze and what it means to face an "essay portion" on a standardized test.
But first: a special offer.

A masters is the first level of graduate coursework and can be obtained after you receive a bachelor's degree. Earning a masters usually requires two years of full-time study, which amounts to 36 to 54 semester credits.
Even though my attend distant learning classes online, several universities hold commencement at several locations. You could even stop taking classes for many weeks during the year without withdrawing and without throwing your student loans into repayment. That is a strong argument many people look at when enrolling in distance learning classes.

Artist, Everett
Mayo has offered two paintings to Franklin County Arts Council for a fund
raising project. The 21"x29" watercolor paintings titled "Carving a Duck" and "Carving
a Horse" are matted and framed. The paintings are valued at $1,200 each. The
watercolors are currently on display at the FCAC Gallery in downtown
With a nearly 40-year history as an artist, educator and critic, Mayo's
work hangs in galleries in throughout North Carolina and in New York City.
Currently, he is a professor of art at NC Wesleyan College, director of the
Mims Gallery, and an active member of The Franklin County Arts Council.
When asked about
what inspired the paintings Mayo said, "These paintings were painted in a
garage and are about growing up in and out of garages with guys I grew up with,
some older guys, some younger, and all fascinating to a 13-14 year old....where
I learned about life and all that....garage life has continued to be interesting
for me as an observer...honest to God mechanics are rare and very smart people
to be around, watch and talk with...painting these was therapy for a period in
my life working three jobs at 96 hours a week."
Franklin County Arts Council is holding a raffle
for the works of art. Tickets are $5 each. They can be purchased at the FCAC
Gallery during regular hours Thursday – Saturdays, 10:30am until 5pm, or during
any FCAC functions. A drawing will be held when the goal of at least $2400 is
reached. Once their goal is reached FCAC will host a reception where the
winning tickets will be drawn. You can buy your ticket online at this link Mayo Art Fund Raiser. Your ticket stub will be mailed to you.
