7:30 PM EST TV: FS Detroit / NBA league Pass Radio: 97.1 The Ticket
Awe, ...here we go again. This forum would be a lot more uplifting without the game threads.
Milwaukee has one of the worst defenses that I've seen without Bogut. We should win at home against them. Breakout game for Russell Walker coming up as he goes career-high for 21 pts.
Did the NBA contract some teams when I wasn't looking? It seems like the Pistons have played the same 6 teams over and over.
Stern is trying to capitalize on the additional revenue that marquee matchups like Pistons vs Pacers and Piston vs Bucks bring to the league. I can't wait for the Tayshaun Prince/Beno Udrih McDonalds commercial that's scheduled to air during the Superbowl.
I wonder how many people will be coming just to see Vanilla Ice at halftime and then will make their way for the exits....
The Bucks seem to be winning lately. They've won against Miami twice now, and recently beat the Lakers. They stand at 10-11 while the Pistons are 4-20. Any team that has won 4 of 5...against some good teams certainly can handle the Pistons. Bucks by 13 points..........
Does seem like it. Plus we are the only team that seems to get tired and need practice.
All we need to work on is defense, shooting, and quality assists.
Maybe we need a change of pace here....how about starting Monroe with Macklin and Charlie V in the front court and BenGo and Will Iam not injured in the back court. Then we would least lose 120-111...either way we either win or get closer to more ping pong balls... I mean what is wrong with those guys anyway? They can't be hurt this long.....
I was thinking the same thing. This is very peculiar..... Ben Gordon and Charlie Villenueva have already made it on the list of Detroit's Worst Free Agent Moves of All Time: http://www.mlive.com/sports/index.s...-pistons+(Detroit+Pistons+Impact+-+MLive.com)
According to this: http://www.mlive.com/pistons/index.ssf/2012/01/detroit_pistons_ben_gordon_hop.html Gordon hurt his shoulder(s) in the pre-season.
You see, aztecs, aliens or whoever did not make their 2012 doom predictions just for fun
I never thought of CV as a sign of the apocalypse. But, now that you mention it...
Hey, we'd won this one.
Revenge is sweet! After getting blown out by the Bucks at Milwaukee, the Pistons stop their losing streak and end the Bucks' winning streak at the Palace. Mason yelling Deeetroiit Basketbaall during and after the game was awesome. Beautiful game. First of all, great game for Brandon. After going scoreless against Milwaukee the last time, he comes back with a career high 26 points, 7 assists and more importantly, no turnovers. I think going against Deron Williams and doing fairly well really boosted his confidence. He and Brandon Jennings really were going at each other as the esteemed Greg Kelser pointed out, going tit for tat quite a bit, especially in the second quarter. My favorite plays were that pretty bounce pass to Greg in the post and the one to Rodney in transition. The one to Tay for a layup was good too. This is how he needs to play, aggressive, but under control. He did take a questionable 3 at the end, but he'd just hit 2 big shots in a row, so forgivable. He'd turned into such a threat for the Bucks that Scott Skiles put his best perimeter defender, our old buddy Carlos on him in the second half, and he did reign him in a bit, but Brandon was able to get loose when he needed to down the stretch. Just a very good game, and that it came in a win is even better. Greg had another solid outing, going for his 12th? double double of the season with 18 and 11. He did have 4 turnovers and was a little bit off early, but he made them when it counted, including two huge free throws that all but sealed the win. He is never fancy, and he won't wow you with highlight dunks and blocks like Max would, but he's consistent, and consistently very good. Tayshaun had a good game. He wasn't going into isotayshaun mode so much, even though he was forcing a bit at the end. His defense down the stretch was good as well. He did do one of his classic "oh my god, I fouled someone?!" gestures at the end, very funny. Max was actually okay for this one. He's still got Stone Hands, but he along with Greg grabbed some big rebounds there at the end, as well as an emphatic swat of a Brandon Jennings floater. Stuckey was quiet again, but okay. Was quite surprised to see him playing after the turned ankle, groin pull aggravation at NJ, but he had a fine game, despite shooting only 30%. His mobility is clearly limited though, and Livingston took full advantage of that at the start of the second half. Refs weren't falling for his 'hey!' tonight, so he only had 4 free throw attempts, two of which were at the end when Milwaukee had to foul. Lawrence Frank did yank him out at one point, as the offense had stalled and he was going isotayshaun a bit too much. Austin Daye. Goodness this guy was a momentum stopper - benefitting the other team. The lead was most threatened at the start of the second and third quarters, both times with him on the floor. His turnovers were of the dribble it off his foot out of bounds or lose the ball while dribbling right into the hands of Drew Gooden variety, the former after he decided he'd take the ball up the floor instead of passing it to his PG. He was also the guy who couldn't stay in front of a rookie, and sent him to the line twice in a row. It's gotten to the point where I cringe every time he dribbles. The guy was a -17 in 10 minutes for a reason. Maybe he needs his shooting/life coach to come to town and talk to him about snapping his wrist on release again. Walker D. Russell. I really like him, he kinda reminds me of Lindsey on defense. Not as lockdown as Lindsey, but he doesn't commit dumb fouls and really pestered Brandon Jennings for the most part. Had a key steal early in the fourth too. JJ was good too. Just hustling, providing energy. Things his team need him to do. His highlight play was a nice dunk in transition off a good pass from Brandon early in the fourth. He needs to do that more often. Greg too. Damien Wilkins..I still like him more than Daye, but on offense he made some bad decisions. He had a really glaring one in transition; Greg was back with him and had excellent position under the hoop, and he takes and bricks a short jumper from the baseline instead, with his big man right in front of him. Hated that. To be honest, despite having a 13 point lead at one point, I couldn't breathe easy knowing the team and the threat of a FQC. A drought did come, but the important thing for the Pistons is they fought through it, thanks in part to two big shots in the lane from Brandon and a putback layup from Greg. It was also huge that they managed to cool off Brandon Jennings. The guy was shooting 100% at the half, and shot like 20% the rest of the way. Brilliant effort by the team.
Excellent writeup as always, alexa. The Pistons' defense was pretty good tonight, especially its transition and interior defense (that tie-up on the Jennings fast break was delightful to watch). Milwaukee going 3-17 on threes certainly helped Detroit, but we have to give the Pistons some credit, as they did prevent a lot of scoring inside (again, it certainly helped that Milwaukee had no interior offense, but I split hairs). Individually, I love seeing Knight with 7 assists and 0 turns - it gives me hope that the kid is figuring out his limitations and those of his teammates. I love seeing Monroe with another solid game, and yes, he's a little sloppy with the ball, but having a guy in the post that can actually score from the post is a nice feeling. This team still sucks offensively (is it really that hard to score 100 points?), but help is hopefully on the way in the draft. Until then, I'm enjoying seeing their defense improving and enjoying watching their young guys get better; it's no exaggeration to say that Knight is getting better every game he plays, and it's safe to say now that Monroe is legit.
^Thanks Laimbrane. Agree on the Jennings tie up; Rodney and Brandon did a good job there.
I only saw the last 4 minutes while I was sitting at the theater waiting for a movie to start and kept hoping that they would not blow the 11 pt lead, that much to my chagrin shrunk to 4....but after a nice regrouping time out, Knight came back with two nice hoops to extend the lead back to 8 and then I kind of relaxed and showed the phone to Mrs Dre and told her we got this. She gave the thumbs up, the previews started and I turned off the phone. I like the next Piston fan would love to get the first or second pick, but I think it's too early to be campaigning for ping-pong balls yet. I would rather see the team win 1.5 games a week and then tanked them all at the end........thanks for recap Alexa
From the third quarter in OKC to today, Brandon is showing me that this is his team. He's showing good improvment as the games go by but its his competative fire and confidence that fuels the team. His is the psyche that everyone else feeds off of. Forget x's and o's. Forget starting PF. Forget even running the team. BK was working it chasing Jennings over picks and then coming down with great focus on the other end. The team responds with off the ball movement. Tay especially. We'll continue to struggle as he develops and grows into the role of leader of this team but this guy has it and its just a matter of time. I loved that he went up and challenged Sanders on that dunk. Your point guard going to block a 6'11" guy and really looking like he intended to stuff him back down. Watching Monroe play is just great, win or lose. We've been a jump shooting perimeter team so long that its refreshing to have a big guy be a real focus of our O. Tay was fantastic in this game. For all the trashing we give him during all the other games, he showed why Dumars signed him. He's not a guy that can carry a team and when he tries, its awful but in the flow of the game, as other guys are moving and working it, he knows how to cut, where the openings are and how to finish. He and Monroe, I feel, really key off of Brandon and is why I think Brandon is becoming so important. If Tay has confidence in Knight, he'll move better without the ball and make that extra pass if needed. If not, there's really no one else and he tries to do it all himself.

So i'm bored to death these days after endless farming on d3, i just need something else. I haven't seen any ESO thread on the first 3 pages ( maybe I'm blind? ).
I've been debating on buying it or not, a few of my friends play it but I'm not sure if I'll like it.
Anyways, how's ESO? still very popular or it was just over-hyped?
edit; is pvp any good? <--- that's the most important.

It's no surprise that New York City, in addition to being home to the most residents of any U.S. city, is also the most densely populated. Other urban centers, particularly along the coasts, tend to have high population density as well.
Some major cities, though, aren't nearly as densely populated.
Deep personnel-related cuts that had accelerated during the Great Recession as local governments trimmed budgets are slowly beginning to taper off.
That's according to survey data published Thursday by the National League of Cities (NLC) in a report examining a range of fiscal conditions across U.S. cities.
The Tax Foundation published its annual State Business Tax Climate Index study on Wednesday, ranking the most and least friendly states for companies to do business.
As in years past, the release generated no shortage of media attention. The index serves as a benchmark for comparison and is often cited by elected officials, whether they're on the campaign trail or looking to lure companies from other states.
Hundreds of thousands of government workers remain furloughed this week as politicians fight another round of the seemingly never-ending battle over the federal budget. At the state and local level, many agencies hit with steep funding cuts in the aftermath of the recession still haven't recovered, either.
But despite the bleak employment outlook and negative rhetoric, younger Americans don't appear deterred from pursuing careers in public service.
The ramifications of the federal shutdown this week have been far-reaching, from Air Force bases along the west coast to tens of thousands of government workers in the New York City metro area.

Today show report on controversial mercury rules ignored criticism
A brief NBC News report on the Environmental Protection Agency's new power plant regulations [1] offered only the administration's spin on the rules but failed to mention that they are among the most controversial and widely criticized environmental regulations that the Bush administration has issued.
Substitute news anchor Natalie Morales [2] reported the story on the March 15 edition of NBC's Today:
MORALES: Today, the EPA is set to issue new regulations for power plants. The Bush administration says the new rules may raise electricity rates, but should cut mercury pollution in half by the year 2020.
But despite the administration's claims, environmental groups, local and state air pollution regulators, and even current and former EPA employees have criticized the new regulations. According to a March 15 Los Angeles Times article [3], critics of the rules "have said far steeper reductions are possible and criticized the EPA for delaying reductions for decades at the behest of a politically powerful industry." The article added that some EPA employees said the new rules "failed to live up to administration promises to consider alternatives that would result in more rapid reduction of mercury emissions."
The Boston Globe also noted [4] that the rules have been criticized for allowing "hot spots," or high regional levels of mercury pollution. The EPA plans to employ a "cap-and-trade" scheme for mercury similar those that have been implemented to regulate other pollutants, such as sulfur dioxide. But unlike those pollutants, mercury is too heavy to disperse into the atmosphere, and high concentrations can endanger humans in the particular areas where they build up.
Cap-and-trade programs enable companies affected by a regulation to buy and sell "pollution credits," allowing some companies to pollute more than others, so long as the overall levels of the pollutant decline to specified limits. Natasha Hunter explained [5] in the August 26, 2002, edition of The American Prospect why such a system is problematic for mercury:
Mercury is a well-known neurotoxin. The acid-rain program [the cap-and-trade program used to regulate sulfur dioxide], in contrast, dealt with a pollutant that isn't particularly harmful in the short term or in the immediate area where it's released. So regulators didn't need to worry about a utility loading up on emissions credits and creating a dangerous concentration, or "hot spot." An elevated mercury output, however, could pose an immediate threat, not just to fish and plant life (as is the case with acid rain) but to humans, especially children.
Today was the only network morning show to report on the rule change.

Oswald Avery, Colin MacLeod, and Maclyn McCarty show that DNA is the transforming material in cells. They demonstrate that the transformation of Streptococcus pneumoniae from an avirulent type to a virulent type is the result of the transfer of DNA from dead smooth organisms to live rough ones. They also show that the transforming principle is destroyed by pancreatic deoxyribonuclease —an enzyme that hydrolyzes DNA —but is not affected by pancreatic ribonuclease or enzymes that destroy proteins.

What will get you ahead in life? Are you seeking out a global educational experience for your resume, or because you want to experience another country and culture? To benefit on both counts, come to the Study Abroad & Exchange Office and go abroad with us!
Recent empirical research has found that resume-related ("extrinsic") reasons are not as effective for one's success in life as learning-related ("intrinsic") ones. Even both motivations combined are less powerful than just the wish to explore the world. Hence, do not be afraid to follow your interest in other countries and cultures.
You can take advantage of exciting global studies opportunities in two ways: as an individual participant in an International Exchange Program at one of our overseas partner universities, or as a member of a Study Abroad Program under the supervision of a Stony Brook faculty member. Some Study Abroad Programs include a foreign language component, but all are conducted in English.We look forward to meeting you soon. Explore the possibilities!
Undergraduates have the opportunity to apply for financial aid or loans for either program. Keep in mind that participation may even allow you to graduate earlier than expected, for example, by taking some required courses between semesters. Study Abroad Programs or International Exchanges may span an academic year, a single semester, a summer or winter session, yet the experiences and memories will last a lifetime.

Mint contains menthol, just break a few sprigs off and put it inside the hive for the bees to clean out. Should give the T mites a thumb on the noggin.
2 K wing bees would not worry me. But if there are a lot that would be Tracheal mites, not Varroa, and I'd get a new queen. But the recommended treatment is menthol, which I've never used.
Annette. I am sorry to say this, but I really think that Michael is telling you the right stuff. This hive is probably not going to make it. It is sad, but you do have to face the facts. Do as he tells you.I lost 10 colonies last year to issues with the varroa mite (and swarming, which left weaker hives that could not fight off the varroa). It saddened me deeply, but I learned some very valuable lessons from that. I wound up at the end of the season last year with 2 colonies, 1 which overwintered and is a blasting, going concern now!!!! I babied it through this winter using a terrarium heater and man did it pay off. This hive is out of control. I have made a nuc with it and yesterday I took two frames of its brood and three shakes of bees to strengthen the weak hive that lost so much of its population to the poisoning from the ant bait. It is still booming with bees and still more bees to come, as it had many more frames of capped brood. At the beginning of winter last year, I honestly did have little hope for this poor little colony, 1 left out of 11. Have a wonderful day, keep your chin up. Cindi

WEST CHESTER, PA — MEI has teamed up with electronic recycling companies Intercon Solutions and Scientific Recycling Inc. to offer a "no landfill" recycling process for electronic vending products. MEI explained that the need for such a process became evident when it received a large number of outdated bill validators from vending and amusement customers taking advantage of its "New $5 Trade-in Program."
The program, which was recently extended to September 15 because of overwhelming response, allows operators to trade in existing bill validators for credit toward the purchase of the latest MEI Series 2000 flash-programmable model, preloaded with software that recognizes the new $5 bill. Operators get a $40 credit for replacing non-flash MEI Series 2000 validators, and $20 in credit for replacing other MEI and non-MEI models.
When Intercon and SRI receive units for recycling, they disassemble the products and return the components to the market instead of disposing them as waste. To date, MEI has recycled thousands of units.
To kick off the validator-recycling program, MEI is managing the logistics of the pick-up and transport, and paying the expenses for the bill validators being recycled through the trade-in program. MEI encourages all customers to make use of this or similar recycling programs as they upgrade vending machines and other electronic products.
MEI reports that it has the world's largest installed base of unattended payment systems, handling more than two billion transactions weekly. Its products are in widespread use in the vending, soft drink, gaming, amusement, transport, retail and kiosk markets. For more information, visit MEI online or call (800) 345-8215.

Sabres.com takes a look at four players who may be available around picks five through nine: Gilbert Brule; Anze Kopitar; Luc Bourdon; and Ryan Parent.
Archives for July 2005
16 Players in 4 Days, Part 2
Rivalries kicked up a notch for Sabres
'Western New York sports fans will notice a serious conflict Dec. 17, when the Penguins pay a Saturday night visit. That game will start at 7:30 p.m., but one hour later the Buffalo Bills will play the Denver Broncos in Orchard Park. The Sabres tried to correct the glaring problem but were unable because they also play the Penguins the night before in Pittsburgh. The NHL won't allow an afternoon game to be scheduled the day after a night game.'
New rules make Miro worth price
'When a player is in a contract year, he's not tanking his season to send a message that could undermine his market value.'
MacArthur faces signing deadline day
'"Guys are taking a pretty big pay cut, so I'm just waiting," MacArthur said from his home in Lloydminster, Alberta. "There's just no leverage for players anymore unless you're willing to go back to the draft, and that's an option for a lot of players right now." Is MacArthur willing to take that avenue? "Yeah, for sure," he said. "If you can't get the right numbers that's the only way to go."'
Sabres plan to return NHL to area
'Among the possible dates are Wednesday, Oct. 26, against the Washington Capitals; Wednesday, Nov. 2, against the Ottawa Senators; Wednesday, Nov. 9, against the Carolina Hurricanes; and Thursday, Nov. 17, against the Capitals.'
Dec. 17 is a stalemate with area fans
'Which leaves the fan base for both sports to ponder — does the revamped NHL think it can take on the NFL for revenue?'
Home opener against Islanders highlights Sabres schedule
'In all, the Sabres will play eight games (four home, four away) against Northeast Division foes Boston, Montreal, Ottawa and Toronto, as well as four games (two home, two away) against the rest of the Eastern Conference. They will play home games against teams in the Pacific Division (Anaheim, Dallas, Los Angeles, Phoenix and San Jose) and travel to play teams in the Northwest Division (Calgary, Colorado, Edmonton, Minnesota and Vancouver).'
Sabres Announce 2005-06 Schedule
The Buffalo Sabres and the National Hockey League today announced the club's 2005-06 regular season schedule. The Sabres will drop the puck on the new season at HSBC Arena on Wednesday, October 5 at 7:00 PM vs. the New York Islanders.
16 Players in 4 Days, Part 1
To prepare for the NHL Draft on July 30, Sabres.com will be previewing the Top-16 players in this draft according to the NHL's Central Scouting System.
Sabres will open new season at home
'A notable conflict occurs on Saturday, Dec. 17 when the Sabres are to host the Pittsburgh Penguins at 7:30. Also on that night, the Buffalo Bills are home to the Denver Broncos at Ralph Wilson Stadium, with kickoff scheduled for 8:30 p.m. A Sabres' official said an attempt was made to re-schedule the game to Pittsburgh, where the Sabres play a night earlier. Due to a previously scheduled event in the Penguins' arena, however, the game could not be switched.'
2005-2006 Schedule Released
Saturday, December 17th:
Penguins @ Sabres 7:30 p.m.
Broncos @ Bills 8:30 p.m.
Sabres To Open Season At Home
'WGR has learned that the Buffalo Sabres will open the 2005-06 season on Wednesday, October 5th at HSBC Arena against the New York Islanders.'
A Winning Tradition for Western
"We are a little bit on the inexperienced side this year with only three guys returning (from last year's gold medal team)," stated head coach, Derek Gilham, who also coaches Williamsville East and the Buffalo Saints Midget Major team. "But in a five game series, inexperience shouldn't play a huge role."
Satan's days numbered
'The Buffalo News has learned Satan's tenure in Buffalo – sometimes prolific, sometimes tumultuous – will end either with a discharge or a trade, maybe within a few days.'
McKee could take a big salary hit
'"It makes a big statement," McKee said. "If that's the route they choose to go, I'll just sign my (qualifying offer) for one year and be into my unrestricted free agency. But it's called a club option for a reason. So if that's what they want to do, that's their choice."'

Free personalized radio that
plays the music you love
Silver Jews
Before moving to New York but after finishing his studies, Malkmus founded Pavement with his childhood friend Scott Kannberg. As Pavement's acclaim and visibility grew, the notion arose that the Silver Jews were a "Pavement side-project," despite the fact that Berman's writing, singing, and guitar playing led the band's music. On the band's initial recordings, Berman tried to protect the Jews' individuality, listing Malkmus and Nastanovich under aliases, but it backfired when people learned who "Hazel Figurine" and "Bobby N." really were.
The notion of the Jews as a side project was only reaffirmed when Nastanovich joined Pavement as a second drummer (to supplement the duties of Gary Young, their then-current, unpredictable drummer) before the release of the group's debut album, Slanted and Enchanted (which was named after a cartoon that Berman created). Steve West, another college friend, played drums for both bands, first for the Silver Jews on Dime Map of the Reef, and on all of Pavement's releases after Watery, Domestic.
However, the Jews' sometimes frustrating "Pavement connection" did bring some important attention to the band: Dan Koretsky, founder of the Chicago-based indie label Drag City, met Berman at a Pavement show. When he heard of the Jews' tapes, Koretsky offered to release them. On their first EPs for the label, 1990's Dime Map of the Reef and 1993's The Arizona Record, the band held to their ultra lo-fi aesthetic and recorded the majority of both on a walkman.
After the release of the EPs, Berman entered a graduate-level writing program at the University of Massachusetts and met like-minded members of local bands, the indie/country hybrid Scud Mountain Boys and New Radiant Storm King. Writing and teaching at the university left Berman time for songwriting; soon, he had enough material for an album, which became 1994's Starlite Walker. The album reunited Berman with Malkmus and Nastanovich (this time listed by their real names in the credits) in the 24-track Easley Recording studios for a more focused, polished take on the Silver Jews' literate, lyrical, country and noise-inspired rock.
Along with writing and working with other performers like the War Comet and Silver Palace, Berman recorded the Jews' third album, The Natural Bridge, in the summer of 1996 with members of New Radiant Storm King and Drag City artist/producer Rian Murphy. Originally, Berman planned to record this album with Malkmus, Nastanovich, and the Scud Mountain Boys, but both sessions were scrapped after a few days. The Natural Bridge continued to streamline the Silver Jews' sound and let Berman's rich, abstract lyrics and reflective vocals take center stage. Malkmus returned for 1998's American Water, and his guitar and vocal interplay with Berman makes it some of the Silver Jews' best work. The following year, Berman's first collection of poetry, the critically-acclaimed Actual Air, was published by Open City Press. The Silver Jews returned in 2001 with Tennessee, which also featured Berman's wife Cassie on a few tracks. After struggling with depression and substance abuse, Berman resurrected the Jews -- which, this time around, included Cassie, Malkmus, Nastanovich, Will Oldham and Azita Youseffi among many others -- in early 2005 for a new album. Recorded in Nashville, Tanglewood Numbers narrowly avoided being destroyed in the electrical fire that engulfed Memphis' historic Easley-McCain studio, where it was supposed to be mastered. Drag City released the album that fall. Though he is a reluctant live performer as a musician, Berman occasionally does readings of his short stories, poems in both the U.S. and the U.K. ~ Heather Phares

Apple's new Mountain Lion for Macs roars
The new Mac OS X Mountain Lion operating system software that Apple unleashes in the wild today doesn't represent as dramatic a change as Microsoft will be making this fall moving from Windows 7 to Windows 8. In Microsoft's case, the look and feel of its upcoming operating system — meant to be friendly for touch-capable tablets in addition to traditional PCs — is starkly different compared with earlier versions of Windows.
By contrast, in migrating from OS X Lion to Mountain Lion, the ninth significant release of OS X in 11 years, Apple takes the Mac on a path that will look awfully familiar to users of the iPad and iPhone. But the added features should please the Mac faithful just the same.
As part of Lion, Apple brought OS X ever closer to the iOS operating system at the heart of the company's prized tablet and smartphone. In several ways, Mountain Lion makes the two operating systems even more alike, raising the question of if, or perhaps, when, they will merge someday.
For now, users of the iPad and iPhone will recognize in Mountain Lion such iOS fixtures as Notification Center, Notes, Reminders, Game Center, Messages, Dictation and AirPlay Mirroring.
Among the updated features, I'm keen on Twitter and especially Facebook integration, plus improvements in the Safari Web browser. Throughout the operating system, Apple has placed a handy "share" button within apps, making it simple to share photos, videos, Web links and documents, with different options depending on the app. Mountain Lion is also the first version of OS X to come out since Apple introduced its iCloud service.
Apple is making a big deal about new features aimed at buyers in China, as well. Suffice to say, the typical American consumer will recognize a mere fraction of the more than 200 new features that Apple is claiming overall for Mountain Lion.
I've been testing Mountain Lion on a MacBook Pro loaner laptop. I also upgraded my own second-generation MacBook Air laptop, which was previously running Lion. My verdict: The collective changes in Mountain Lion are worth the relatively modest $19.99 price to upgrade, though you'll have to wait for some features. For example, the ability to display and keep your Facebook friends data fresh in the newly renamed Contacts app — it had been called the Address Book — comes as part of another software update this fall.
Other takeaways:
Taming Mountain Lion. The new operating system will be preloaded on new Macs, of course. Folks who bought a Mac on or after June 11 are eligible for a free upgrade.
Those paying for the upgrade must download the new operating system from the Mac App Store. After the purchase, you can freely install the software onto all the personal Macs you own, provided the machines meet the system minimum requirements. That basically eliminates an iMac or MacBook Pro dating to the middle of 2007 or earlier, a Mac Pro from early 2008 or before, a Mac mini from early 2009 or prior, and MacBooks and MacBook Airs that came out ahead of late 2008. Even if your machine can handle Mountain Lion, it might not be able to handle all the new features.
Exhibit A: On the MacBook Pro, I was able to successfully test AirPlay Mirroring, a feature that, through an optional Apple TV box, lets you wirelessly display what's on the Mac screen on a high-definition television. It wouldn't work on my Air, though.
Another new feature, called Power Nap, can silently keep the computer up-to-date with such things as mail messages, calendar and store updates and more while it sleeps. It, too, requires recent (mid-2011 or later) Mac hardware.
Running the upgrade. The upgrade on my MacBook Air went smoothly and took all of 20 minutes. Apple says any further updates to the operating system from here on will come through the Mac App Store rather than through Software Update.
ICloud. Apple's cloud-based service, launched last fall, now has 125 million accounts. You can easily set up Apple's cloud service by logging into the computer with an Apple ID— copying your settings, accounts and any work you've done on other devices to the Mac. One way to exploit iCloud is by storing documents you've created from the various apps supporting the Documents In the Cloud feature that Apple is touting. Any edits you've made to the documents from iOS or Mountain Lion machines are reflected when you launch the document from another device. Of course, Microsoft, Google and others are hoping you'll use their cloud-based services.
Messages. The iMessage instant chat and text-messaging service on the iPhone and iPad come to the Mac, as part of the newly named Messages app. It had been iChat in earlier iterations of OS X. Through iMessage, you can send free texts to anyone with an iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch or Mac with Mountain Lion, adding sizable HD videos or other attachments of up to 100 megabytes. You see indicators when your message has been delivered, read or when the recipient is banging out a response. You can easily arrange group messaging, too, and switch to a FaceTime video call at the click of a button.
Apple plans to unify your AppleID and your phone number when iOS 6 software ships in the fall, which should make it easy for some people to get in touch. The app also lets you use supported instant messaging services AIM, Yahoo, Google Talk and Jabber.
Reminders and Notes. Reminders provides basic to-do lists; Notes is an area to, well, jot down whatever is on your mind. You can even pin one to your desktop. As in iOS, you can arrange to have a reminder appear when you arrive at a particular location. Through iCloud, the apps can be kept in sync with reminders and notes on your iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad and various computers.
Notification Center. Another iOS feature brought to the Mac is a repository for calendar invites, messages, missed FaceTime calls, Game Center friend requests, Twitter mentions and more. Notifications are generally unobtrusive; Apple turns them off if you're giving a presentation in its Keynote software. You can choose to be notified by a banner that appears in the upper right corner of the screen that goes away automatically. Or select an alert that stays on the screen until you dismiss it. To summon a notification, you swipe with two fingers from the right edge of the computer's trackpad to the left. Or you can click on an icon that appears on the upper right corner of the screen. Another nicety: Within Notification Center, you can post a Facebook status update or tweet without opening a separate app. Apple is opening Notification Center so that developers can add such notifications to their apps.
Facebook. Speaking of Facebook, the Contacts app will be populated with your Facebook friends. When a pal makes a change to a phone number or address within Facebook, the change is reflected on your computer. Your friends' birthdays also appear in the Calendar app. Through a bit of weirdness on the MacBook Pro, though, numerous "Birthday" listings appeared with no name, alongside the listings for people having a birthday who were named. Apple says it could be a beta issue, since Facebook integration isn't quite final.
Safari. Apple has unified the address bar and search field within the browser, following the lead of other browsers. You can easily see which tabs are open by pinching in on the trackpad, then swiping to move among them. Via iCloud, you can see which tabs are open (and pick up from where you left off) on your other devices.
Game Center. You can discover games, stats, and field requests inside Game Center, another feature borrowed from iOS. But I wasn't able to test social gaming by competing against someone on the Mac, or on an iOS device. Apple says Mac apps capable of taking advantage of Game Center are coming at launch but only a handful at the start.
AirPlay Mirroring. If you have an Apple TV and recent Mac, you can wirelessly display the screen contents of the Mac on an HDTV. I got AirPlay Mirroring to work with the MacBook Pro, though there was occasional stuttering as I watched videos from Hulu Plus and Netflix on my Panasonic HDTV, possibly a connection hiccup. It was generally watchable, though the screen was far brighter and sharper on the computer.
Dictation. Apple chose to leave its Siri voice assistant off the Mac for now. But you can use your own voice to dictate instead of type, just by rapidly pressing the function key on the keyboard twice. The computer didn't always recognize what I had to say, but in quiet environments, got it right more times than not.
Gatekeeper. Through the years, the Mac operating system has been near bulletproof when it comes to malware and viruses. New Gatekeeper security technology that can screen suspect apps you want to download is meant to keep it that way.
Apple has committed to a roughly once-a-year upgrade path with OS X, so don't be surprised if next year, Mac software resembles iOS software that much more. In the meantime, Mountain Lion is one big cat that you'll want on your computer.

HOBOKEN, N.J. (April 9, 2011) – Senior co-captain Chris Laurita netted three goals and dished out six assists for a game-high nine points, as the Stevens Institute of Technology men's lacrosse team, ranked sixth on the latest USILA Coaches Poll, remained undefeated with an impressive 18-6 win over No. 16 St. John Fisher College at the De Baun Athletic Complex in Hoboken, N.J.
Stevens, which allowed just one second half goal, outscoring their Cardinal counterparts 10-1 over the final two periods, improved to 12-0 overall on the year and 4-0 in Empire 8 play with the win – head coach Gene Peluso's 150th career victory. Fisher fell to 9-2 on the season and 1-2 in league play.
Hoping to get the visiting Cardinals off on the right foot, junior attack Mitch Ritchie (Brockport, N.Y.)put Fisher on the board less than two minutes after the opening whistle, staking St. John Fisher to a 1-0 edge. Laurita quickly responded with a game-tying tally at the 12:07 mark, but a Ryan Schmidt (Whitesboro, N.Y.) goal just over time minutes later put the Cardinals back on top.
Looking to take its first lead of the contest, co-captains Brandon Faubert and Alex Hofrichter netted consecutive goals to put Stevens ahead 3-2. Junior Connor Henderson (Canandaigua, N.Y.)momentarily pulled the Cardinals even at 2:52, but two Ducks' goals in the final minute of the frame – one from Hofrichter at the 58 second mark and one from Laurita at 0:30 – gave Stevens a two-point lead following a closely contested first.
Trying to build on its momentum, Stevens came out firing to start the second, netting two quick goals on Christian Saley and Harry Dorne scores just over six minutes in. Henderson ended Stevens' streak of four consecutive goals with a marker at 2:25, but Laurita tallied his third goal of the day with just 45 seconds left in the frame. Undaunted, Henderson raced into the attacking third, just getting a shot into the back of the Stevens net with three seconds left on the clock, making it 8-5 in favor of the home team heading into the intermission.
Stevens would break it open in the third, getting five unanswered goals coming out of the break to take a 13-5 advantage at the 3:43 mark. Junior midfielder Rich Dupras registered a hat-trick during the span, while Faubert and Hofrichter accounted for the other goals in the Ducks' decisive run. With time winding down in the quarter, Fisher would net its lone second half goal, when junior midfielder Ryan Leonard (West Henrietta, N.Y.) put away a tally at 2:40.
The Ducks continued to stay aggressive and go on the offensive in the final frame, tacking on five more scores to secure the 18-6 margin. Faubert got things started with an unassisted goal at 12:50 before Saley scored a man-up goal off of a Laurita assist at 8:10. Senior midfielder Joey Simone got into the act with a marker less than two minutes later, before Saley and Hofrichter closed out scoring with a pair of goals.
Laurita finished with nine points on three goals and six assists, while Hofrichter tallied five points with four goals and one helper. Laurita, Saley, Faubert, and Dupras each netted a hat-trick to help supplement a balanced Stevens' attack, while Simone and Dorne each recorded a score.
Junior midfielder Michael Steinhauser was once again impressive in the 'X' going 21-for-25 on face-offs, while collecting 16 groundballs, while junior defenseman Matt Marks tallied three caused turnovers in the win. Senior co-captain Zach McHugh chipped in with five ground balls and a pair of caused turnovers, while Eric Yando made seven saves en route to his 12-straight victory.
Henderson paced the Fisher offense with three goals, with Ritchie, Schmidt, and Leonard also recording a score. Senior Alexander Bopp (Lindenhurtst, N.Y.) collected a team-high six ground balls, while freshman goalkeeper Jamie Campagna (Liverpool, N.Y.) made 21 saves in the loss.
Stevens once-again cracked the 60-shot plateau, holding a 63-21 shot advantage, while scoring at least 15 goals for the sixth-consecutive game. The high-flying Ducks' attack, which currently ranks in the top five nationally in four different offensive categories, was especially potent in the second half, outshooting the Cardinals by 25, while outscoring Fisher 10-1.
Equally as impressive was the stingy Stevens defense, which clamped down as the game wore on, allowing just one second half goal on nine total second half shots – none in the fourth and final quarter.
After a week-long lay-off the Ducks return to action on Saturday, April 16 against No. 4 Rochester Institute of Technology.

:fettesb Hey Guys,
Wanted to share with you my new ESB cloak. I just received the sample the other day and I'm very pleased with it. It's done in very fine linen fabric just like the movie version cloak. The best part is the accurate screen printed stripe. This is done by professionals so the saturation is excellent and razor sharp. The bleed thru is clean on both sides of the 26"x30"cloak. This allows the cloak to be made with one single spread of linen with folded edges instead of the usual double layer fabric when the stripe was simply sewn on. Because the cloak is made in fine linen it drapes beautifully over the shoulder wrinkles and all. I'm putting the sample through several washes to soften it even further before I distress it. I'll have those photos up very soon.
*After some constructive criticism from RF and Woodman I've decided to go back to the drawing board on this project and sort out a darker shade of linen and perhaps go a little lighter on the printed stripe. Thanks Guys :thumbsup

|Over the last three posts I've been discussing a few of the most frequently asked questions regarding the WebSphere CloudBurst Appliance. I'd like to wrap up today with a fourth and final installment.
|If you have read some of my entries before, or if you have read any of our WebSphere CloudBurst articles on IBM's developerWorks, then you know that the appliance brings extreme simplification and safety to applying fixes and service level upgrades to running WebSphere Application Server virtual systems. Users select a virtual system, choose a fix or service level upgrade, and then WebSphere CloudBurst drives the application of the fix or upgrade to the system. Before applying the fix or upgrade, the appliance takes a snapshot of the virtual system, and users can simply click a button to roll back to the previous state if the process produces undesired results.
|This is a pretty strong value add to WebSphere Application Server management and one that our users typically immediately understand. Almost always though, after users see this they are curious about another aspect of rolling out fixes and upgrades in WebSphere CloudBurst. In particular, they want to know how they ensure that all subsequent deployments (after applying the fix to a specific virtual system) can be ensured of having the correct fixes and service levels.
|The answer to this inquiry is that there are a couple of different ways to achieve this, and it depends on what you are try to accomplish and your preferences. For instance, if you want to make sure all of your subsequent deployments have a particular interim fix, you will likely go the route of image extension. First, you pick the WebSphere Application Server Hypervisor Edition image in your catalog to which the fix applies. Next, you extend that image, and once a virtual machine based off the image is accessible, you use existing WebSphere Application Server tools (Update Installer) to apply the fix. After the fix has been applied, you can capture the updated image and then use it as the basis for patterns created from that particular version of the WebSphere Application Server.
|On the other hand, if you are looking to ensure subsequent deployments are based on a new level of the WebSphere Application Server, your process will be a bit different. First you would load a new WebSphere Application Server Hypervisor Edition image (based on the new level of WebSphere Application Server) into your WebSphere CloudBurst catalog. Then you would select any of your customized patterns you wanted to upgrade to the new level, clone that pattern, and simply select the new image as the basis for the pattern. All of your other customizations are preserved. Really, it's that simple!
|I hope that over the last month I have answered some of the more common questions about WebSphere CloudBurst. At any point if you have any questions feel free to email me or leave a comment right here on the blog.

I love the way people always lean into a photograph and there is always so much room around. So, Ella is the great grandmother? Rubinetta is the mother of Phyllis and Alberta is another daughter?ReplyDelete
Your theory is my theory. I found another obituary which is in conflict with our theory, need the 1940 census for clarity of Beatrice's daughters.ReplyDelete
I am so glad I stopped by to see your post. This is three generations? I wonder what the occasion was. Thank you for sharing.ReplyDeleteReplies
There might be four generations. I imagine Beatrice, along with her daughter Rubinetta and granddaughter Phyllis, came by after church to visit with Beatrice's mother Ella and her sister Alberta the caregiver.Delete

My mother became disabled a few years ago and is now alone at the house a lot. She likes fantasy/sci-fi, so I'd like to find an MMO for her to play to keep her busy and let her interact with people.
She doesn't currently use Facebook, so I'd prefer to avoid Zynga-style games that focus on interacting with existing friends. She's also very tech un-savy, so the simpler the game is to learn the better (i.e. WoW is about 100x too complicated.)
I'm looking for something with simple mechanics that's very social and as low as possible on combat / competitive stuff. Something like a facebook game, just not on facebook...
Also our family is Mac only at this point.

Canisius baseball team split Sunday's doubleheader at UNC Asheville, winning
the opener 6-4 in 11 innings and then falling 14-2 in the second game of the
day. The teams split the four-game series, and Canisius is now 4-4 on the
Game One - Canisius 6, UNC
Asheville 4
Griffs scored first with a solo homer from junior Jesse Kelso in the top of the third. UNC Asheville took a 3-1 lead
in the bottom of the inning with a two-RBI double from Kyle Towles and a
sacrifice fly from Billy Creighton. The Bulldogs held that lead until the
seventh when the Griffs were able to force extra innings. Sophomore Jesse Puscheck led off with a pinch-hit
single but was forced at second on a fielder's choice. Kelso and junior Shane Zimmer were each hit by a pitch
to load the bases. After senior Chris
Gruarin struck out swinging, senior Brooklyn
Foster came through with the two-out, two-RBI single to tie the game.
Griffs took a 4-3 lead in the top of the ninth as freshman Anthony Massicci led off with a double and moved to third on a

Me Too! I was just thinking about it this evening. Weird.
Figures this happened while I was building my house and AWOL. I'd be interested in this as well if you do another run.
On another builders board there's a poster I know who's asking about US compliant l1a1 flashhider and pistons and you're the first guy I thought of. Any chance you have some lying around or could do the parts for him? I'm going to copy and paste this link to his thread over there so he at least knows who to contact if he still needs the parts.
I'm Chris in St.Louis you may or may not remember me. It's been a couple of years. aka Guinny Ire
I'm the guy looking. Hello all. I am looking for L1A1 Gas pistons. I need 5. Any chance of a run?
Great thread. I love to see the tools that folks come up with.
Take care -

Later with Cardiff City, Swansea and Hereford United player-boss, he worked in the licensed trade and was a sub-postmaster in Swansea. He died in November 1997.
Lithuania international striker Tomas Danilevicius briefly played for Arsenal during the 2000/01 campaign. He had spells with Baltai, Atlantas, Beveren, Brugge and Lausanne before Arsène Wenger signed him in December 2000, having impressed on trial with Arsenal, scoring in a pre-season friendly against Barcelona. Given his Premiership debut as a substitute in that month's 2-2 draw at home to Sunderland, he also featured in the next match at Charlton and FA Cup Third Round win at Carlisle. He was loaned to Dunfermline before rejoining Beveren in July 2001 and has since played for Italian sides Livorno and Avellino.
Ex-England Schoolboy midfielder Roger Davidson helped Arsenal win the Football Combination title in 1968/69.

Previously with Auxerre, he joined the Gunners during the January 2006 transfer window and made his Premiership debut in that month's 1-0 defeat at Everton. He quickly impressed with several strong displays and his tall, slender frame and tough-tackling style led to immediate comparisons to former Arsenal captain Patrick Vieira.

This guy had his family in the car and when he was in the middle lane, he floors it and his son waves bye bye to me out the back window. At the light, he asks me if I had a hemi in my WRX. I said, "no, I opted for the 2 cycle cause it gets better MPGs." Then I told him his truck is missing truck nuts. So then the light turns green and he tries to run me... I SMOKED him. LOL. I love this car. I guess rednecks don't know that Japan can make fast cars.

New Retailers Added to Peanut Butter Recall
A recent recall for peanut butter manufactured by Sunland Inc., and sold at Trader Joe's, has expanded its list of grocery stores and nuts and butters. The peanut butter originally recalled isTrader Joe's Creamy Salted Peanut Butter.
Sunland Inc. has widened its recall of peanut butter and almond butter to include cashew butters, tahini and blanched and roasted peanut products. The company, which sells its nuts and nut butters to large groceries and other food distributors around the country, recalled products under multiple brand names last month after salmonella illnesses were linked to Trader Joe's Creamy Salted Valencia Peanut Butter, one of the brands it manufactures.
In addition to Trader Joe's, the recall includes some nut butters and nut products sold at Whole Foods Market, Target, Safeway, Fresh & Easy, Harry and David, Sprouts, Heinen's, Stop & Shop Supermarket Company, Giant Food of Landover, Md. and several other stores. Some of those retailers used Sunland ingredients in items they prepared and packaged themselves.
The FDA has listed product names in alphabetical order on their website athttp://www.fda.gov/Food/FoodSafety/CORENetwork/ucm320413.htm.
The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said there are now 30 salmonella illnesses in 19 states that can be traced to the Trader Joe's peanut butter. No other foods have been linked to the illnesses, but Sunland recalled other products manufactured on the same equipment as the Trader Joe's product.
Some of the brand names included in the recall are Target's Archer Farms, Safeway's Open Nature, Earth Balance, Fresh & Easy, Late July, Heinen's, Joseph's, Natural Value, Naturally More, Peanut Power Butter, Serious Food, Snaclite Power, Sprouts Farmers Market, Sprouts, Sunland and Dogsbutter.
Sunland's recall includes 101 products, and several retailers have issued additional recalls including items made with Sunland ingredients.
Almost two-thirds of people who reported being ill from the products, were children under the age of 10. Children are often given peanut butter as a healthy snack or treat.
Those sickened reported becoming ill between, June 11 to September 11th.
The salmonella bacteria can cause diarrhea, fever and abdominal cramps 12 hours to 72 hours after infection. It is most dangerous to children, the elderly and others with weak immune systems.
If you have one of these products, you can return it to the store where it was purchased, or you can throw it out. If it in doubt, throw it out. Salmonella can make someone, especially a child, very ill.

Roger Brown's First and 10: Plymouth-Trinity a dream matchup In Division IV
Top-seeded Plymouth (10-0) has a chance to win the title by beating Trinity, a program that knocked off Plymouth in last year's championship game. Second-seeded Trinity (9-1) earned another shot at Plymouth, the only team that beat the Pioneers during the regular season.
The teams will meet Saturday (1 p.m.) in Plymouth.
"It'll only be tougher this time," Plymouth coach Chuck Lenahan said after the Bobcats beat fourth-seeded St. Thomas 42-17 in the semifinals. "They're a big, powerful football team with a lot of athletes. There's nothing they can't do on offense."
Plymouth scored the game's first 29 points en route to a 36-14 victory when the teams met in September. Priority No. 1 for the Pioneers on Saturday? Eliminate turnovers. The Pioneers turned the ball over four times in the loss.
"Going up (I-93) you know it's going to be a tough game automatically," Trinity quarterback Carmen Giampetruzzi said. "Once one thing went wrong, a bunch of stuff went wrong, and it got away from us real fast. We have to take care of the ball and we should be all right."
"In the first game, turnovers definitely hurt us, but they outplayed us," added Trinity coach Steve Burns."They had the lead and they put us in a position where we had to get away from what we do."
Lenahan has won 344 games as Plymouth's head coach, but had never beaten Trinity until this year. The Bobcats are 1-3 against the Pioneers.
"They do what they do," Burns said. "They're going to stay on blocks. They're going to run the ball hard. They're going to play physical. Plymouth is a phenomenal football team."

THIRD-SEEDED Monadnock of Swanzey (7-2) will be seeking the program's first state title when it meets top-seeded Somersworth (8-1) in Saturday's Division V title game.
This is the third time the Huskies have reached a championship game. Monadnock lost to Plymouth in the 1985 Division III championship game (24-0), and lost to Milford in the 2003 Division IV championship game (27-16).
"The kids are excited," Monadnock coach Linwood Patnode said. "I don't think I'll have to give any Knute Rockne speeches."
Somersworth will be seeking the program's 15th state championship, and its first since the Toppers beat St. Thomas for the Division III championship in 1997.
- - - - - -
NO TEAM made a bigger turnaround this season than Mascoma of Canaan, which will face Franklin in the Division VI championship game.
Mascoma finished last season with a 2-7 record, but earned the program's first playoff berth this year. Top-seeded Mascoma (8-2) will meet second-seeded Franklin (8-2) at Hanover High School, which was also the site for Mascoma's 42-6 triumph over Newfound in the semifinals.
Mascoma posted a 26-13 victory over Franklin in Week 1. Franklin had won the four previous meetings between the programs by a combined score of 213-16. Franklin prevailed 71-0 in 2009, and 60-0 in 2010.
Three of the six semifinal-round games scheduled for Saturday will involve teams that also met last weekend.
In Division I, third-seeded Nashua South (6-4, 5-3) will play at second-seeded Pinkerton (9-1, 7-1). The Astros beat South 40-20 last Friday. The winner will meet either top-seeded Exeter (9-1, 8-0) or fourth-seeded Manchester Central (6-4, 5-3).
In Division II, fourth-seeded Bishop Guertin (5-4, 5-3) will travel to Hampton to face top-seeded Winnacunnet (9-1, 7-1). Winnacunnet's Ben Franzoso returned from injury to rush for 232 yards in a 28-14 victory over BG last Friday. The winner will play either second-seeded Bedford (8-1, 7-1) or third-seeded Keene (8-2, 6-2).
In Division III, fourth-seeded Goffstown (6-4, 5-3) will meet top-seeded Souhegan (9-1, 8-0). The Sabers beat the Grizzlies 32-27 at St. Anselm College on Saturday night. The Goffstown/Souhegan winner will face either second-seeded Milford (7-3, 6-2) or third-seeded Portsmouth (7-2, 6-2).
"Goffstown has a diverse offense and one of the state's most explosive offensive players (quarterback Connor Benjamin)," Souhegan coach Mike Beliveau said. "We really have to play a much better football game in order to get to the championship game."
- - - - - -
THE best quarterback matchup this weekend may take place in Division II.
Bedford's James Caparell has thrown for 1,905 yards and 23 touchdowns this season. He's also run for 401 yards and eight TDs.
Keene's Lucas Luopa has completed 101 of 178 passes for 1,597 yards and 20 TDs. He's also carried the ball 70 times for 622 yards and seven touchdowns.
Bedford won the regular-season meeting, 25-24, in Keene.

Hi everyone,
Here is the old degree question for teaching in Korea; but with a twist!! I really want to start teaching in Korea ASAP, and graduate (get my degree) in the middle of August (the 18th). My University has said they can supply me with a sealed transcript and an official sealed letter stating that I have fullfilled the degree requirements. Would this be adequate for Korean visa purposes, as I want to be on the plane on the 20th, and would fly into the country with my official degree anyway? Any advice would be appreciated.

Responsibility Employer
Our ability to inspire trust and generate client satisfaction is a basic prerequisite for our long-term success. We can only achieve this if we have skilled, responsible and motivated employees. We offer interesting lines of work, progressive employment conditions and wide-ranging training and development opportunities.
Appealing Work Environment
For our business to perform well, we must offer clients best-in-class products and services. We can only realize this goal by continuously strengthening our position as an employer of choice in order to attract and retain the most talented professionals.
Employee Facts and Figures
as of December 31, 2016
Employment contracts
employees with permanent contracts (full-time equivalents)
proportion of female employees (full-time equivalents)
Employee turnover
2016: voluntary turnover 10.5% / involuntary turnover 5.6%
2015: voluntary turnover 9.9% / involuntary turnover 3.5%
2014: voluntary turnover 9.9% / involuntary turnover 4.8%
Career Opportunities, Learning, and Internal Mobility
Our employee training and development programs enable us to enhance the quality of our service and advisory offering and to continuously adapt our business to changing market and client needs. Our HR policy promotes employee development from the first day on the job through to retirement.
Credit Suisse offers all employees a wide range of training programs that take the form of traditional classroom instruction, e-learning, video-based courses and online learning communities.
As a globally active company, we consider it important to give employees the opportunity to gain new experience by working abroad or in different business areas as part of their professional and personal development. Credit Suisse therefore takes targeted measures to promote internal mobility. In 2015, over 5,000 employees benefited from the opportunity to assume a new role within the bank.
When selected positions at all levels become available, we first proactively approach our most suitably qualified employees to fill these vacancies before reaching out to external candidates.
Employee Survey
Employee satisfaction at the workplace has a decided influence on the performance and motivation of our employees. Credit Suisse conducts regular employee engagement surveys in conjunction with an independent consulting firm to assess employee satisfaction and to gain a better understanding of our employees' main concerns. The results provide a picture of our strengths and areas for us to improve, as well as enabling us to gauge our progress. The last employee engagement survey was carried out in spring 2015.
