3 1/2 lb boneless pork loin, cubed
3 medium onions, diced
8 cloves of garlic, diced
14 oz canned diced tomatoes with roasted garlic
14 oz canned dark red kidney bean, liquid reserved 1/2 cup old fashioned oats
1/4 cup bourbon
4 tablespoons chile powder
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa (we used Hershey's Special Dark)
1 tablespoon hot paprika
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1/2 tablespoon ground cumin
1/2 tablespoon red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons hot sauce
2 teaspoons Mexican cinnamon (canella)
2 chicken flavored bouillon cubes
In a large pot, combine the oregano, paprika, chile powder, cumin, bouillon, sugar, hot sauce, cocoa, red pepper flakes, bourbon, coriander, tomatoes. Pour the reserved liquid from the kidney beans into a measuring cup. Add water to equal two cups. Add to the pot, bring to a boil and remove from heat. Meanwhile, in a large pan, saute the cubed pork with the onions and garlic in the oil. You may need to do this in batches, depending on the size of your pan. Add to pot. Bring back to boil. Then reduce heat and simmer parcially cover for 1 1/2 hours or until pork is tender. Uncover, stir in the beans and the oats. Continue to cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, an additional 15 minutes. Chili will be dark and thick.
My thoughts:
My husband bought me Jan and Michael Stern's Chili Nation cookbook (more for him than me, I suspect) and was inspired to create this really delicious and unusual chili.

Vietnam law bans smoking in public
Vietnam has passed a law banning smoking in public places and all tobacco advertising, an official said Tuesday.
The law, passed by 440 out of 468 national assembly deputies on Monday, also makes it illegal to sell tobacco products to anyone under 18 years old, said the parliamentary official, who did not want to be named.
It will take effect from next May, state media said.
Smoking in public places -- including schools, hospitals, office buildings and on public transport -- was banned once already in 2010 by a government decree, which also raised tax on tobacco and restricted the sale of cigarettes.
But that order was widely ignored, with smoking in public places widespread and cigarettes available at small kiosks on nearly every street in the capital Hanoi.
The anti-smoking campaign group Southeast Asia Tobacco Control Alliance (SEATCA) welcomed the new law -- the full text of which has not yet been released -- saying it was a "historic and important milestone" for the country.

First a researcher on the Mars Curiosity mission lit up the science blogosphere when he said the rover had found something 'earth shaking' for the 'history books' during Thanksgiving Week. Then NASA back peddled and clammed up leading to all sorts of speculation. Finally, news made the rounds last week that Curiosity hadn't found much of interest and it was just an excited researcher happy that the soil sampling and analytical tools were operating as designed. NOW — there are reports the rover may have found some carbon compounds, but they're not gonna say what they are tomorrow:
NPR — "It's a substance that's consistent with biological materials," says John Grotzinger of the California Institute of Technology, the chief scientist on the rover team.
Now don't start thinking that because some carbon-containing compounds are associated with biological materials he's talking about life on Mars. Grotzinger says it doesn't have to be biological materials; there are plenty of carbon-containing compounds that have nothing to do with life. But finding certain of these carbon molecules would be exciting because of what it might say about the Martian environment where the rover is sitting at the bottom of Gale crater. If one kind of carbon can survive there, it might just be a place where carbon molecules that are related to living organisms could also survive as a kind of chemical fossil.
"There wouldn't be a field of paleontology unless you found the hot spots where things get preserved," Grotzinger says.
OK, guys: you need to shut the fuck up at this point. If for some incomprehensible reason you still feel an uncontrollable urge to make veiled hints to the media about Curiosity for any reason, I want you to imagine you are a conservative politician sitting on Meet the Press asked your view on rape, and Shut. The. Fuck. UP. Capiche?

Half of a 10g sample pack of this much talked about tea arrived from generous Dr. Hobbes a while ago. One had tried much of the 2006 and 2007 Douji cakes years back when they were fresh but still have not experienced the famous 2005 cakes. So, quite naturally, was excited to finally try this sample. The Pacific Northwest got a dumping of snow a few weeks ago, rare for Victoria. Thought it a perfect time to cuddle up to the fire and spend some quality time with a pot of this tea.
The dry leaves smell of strong raisin-tobacco with a slight underlying pungency. These leaves are rinsed with hot water before the first infusion is consumed. It presents with creamy muted tropical fruits initially within a chalky full mouthfeel. Tobacco and wood present nicely in the aftertaste. Overlapping tropical layers return with a sweetness that lingers long and strong on the breath.
The second infusion first flirts smokey tobacco then nuanced layers of sweetness among the tobacco. The tropical fruit notes have been pushed under these elegantly rugged tobacco notes. The aftertaste is an extension of these full tobacco notes. The mouthfeel becomes expansive. The chaqi warms ones body with a movement from the stomach and traveling upwards making the forearms warm, face softly flush, and forehead pull down- not quite enough to break a sweat as this energy finds no escape thereby warming the body further.
The third infusion starts with light, juicy pear sweetness which carries with it tobacco and wood. The taste stretches into a deeper wood note. The mouthfeel is nice and full. The fourth infusion starts off fruity but more of a melon than pear taste in that familiar tobacco-wood base. The aftertaste is more sweet tobacco then later turns to sweet fruit on the breath.
The fifth infusion presents with more flatter wood flavour initially with faint melon tastes. Tobacco taste fills in the gaps and a cool menthol returning aftertaste is noted. The sixth infusion is much the same with the cool menthol returning tobacco sweetness stronger now. There is also a spicy-pungent melon taste left in the long aftertaste as well.
The seventh and eighth infusions have smoothed out considerably now offering a melon-smooth-tobacco taste with tobacco menthol returning sweetness and a spicy-sweet aftertaste that only reveals itself later on the breath. The mouthfeel has become more rich and oily.
The ninth infusion is quite a deep mix of flavours with the more spicy-wood tastes in the initial taste and the tobacco sweet tastes pairing with the distinctly cool menthol in the finish. The tenth and eleventh infusions see more malty tones come out in these flavours. The tongue feels a bit dry and gritty here.
The twelfth and thirteenth infusions present full flavoured peach and woody, almost anise like flavours that are pushed out of this full mouthfeel in longer infusions.
This tea is also put to a handful of overnight steeping yielding pleasant peachy notes in a deep base and still satisfying mouthfeel.

Google Behavior-Based Search: Is Bruce Clay Right?
Should Site Traffic be the Ultimate Goal?
WebProNews recently reported on Bruce Clay's PubCon "Top Shelf Organic SEO" lecture. If you've read it, then you know exactly where I'm headed. If you haven't here's the gist of it:
Ranking is dead," says Bruce, recalling his words from his presentation. Going forward, he says you're going to have to look at analytics, measure traffic, bounce rates, action, etc. SEOs will have to ask themselves questions like: – Did I get the conversion I was after? – Did I really deliver on the promise of SEO? Bruce thinks that in the first six months of 2009, we're going to see a lot more implementation of behavior and intent-based search leading to a mindset of ranking is dead, and traffic is all that matters.
I wrote about this topic in early September this year, and it seems to be finally making it's way to the mainstream. Do I think that Bruce has got it right? Yes, Bruce got it right: search engine position and rank is dead. However, where I think Bruce is leading SEOs astray is claiming traffic is the new "Google #1". It most certainly is not.
In Terms of Small Business SEO:
Personalized search (behavior-based search) based of your IP Address, or Google tracking you through your Google Account, is going to make search engine rankings quite irrelevant. Because results will be based on several new factors, not automatically taken into account now: geo-location, types of searches, and previously visited pages, results will now be somewhat tailored to fit those factors.
Will this affect small business SEO? Inherently, yes. A majority of small business owners have trained themselves in the belief that being "#1 in Google" is the only goal that matters. With personalized search, "being #1" may or may not help; for example:
If a user, let's say this user is a dentist, and does dental searches all day for information on x-wing bites, a common dental x-ray technique, but is a Star Wars buff. Our dentist can't remember the name of the rotund guy who flies the x-wing in the original Star Wars. So the dentist types in "fat guy x-wing". Personalized search is, in all probability, not going to be able to distinguish between a "work" search and "Star Wars" search. Thus, giving the dentist work-related results. (By the way, the fat guy was Porkins).
Trying to explain why being #1 in Google may be irrelevant to small business owners, will not be easy. For years this is all they heard, this is all they know.
A Point of Contention With Bruce Clay
Do I think that Bruce was wrong to say that traffic is the new goal? Absolutely. Traffic, of course is a must have, but should it be the singular goal of the SEO? Absolutely not.
In fact, it's definitely not the most important benchmark for success. It's simply a byproduct of success. What is the real measure of success on a website? Goal Conversion. It's where all SEOs should be focusing themselves. Goal Conversion.
In my opinion traffic is akin to pageviews. You can have a lot of both, but if you aren't making money, then does anyone really care that you bring in 10,000 unique visitors a day, who view 1,000,000 pages? Definitely not.
We have established, albeit painfully, that the CPM-model for site revenue is non-sustaining. Use the latest tragedy of CPM-Model driven revenue: Boomertowne. A spectacular disaster; simply an awe-inspiring bomb sure to make every not-so-net-savvy entrepreneur think twice before getting on the CPM Train.
This is all to say: traffic, like pageviews, is of a bygone era. The focus has to be on goal conversion: funneling consumers/users to make the purchase, inquire for more information, or contact you.
How To Function As An SEO in the New Personalized Search
1) An SEO must still do the basics:
- Tedious KW research, tedious client research, and tedious competition research.
- Solid Meta-Data (Page Titles, Description, and, yes, a couple of keywords too)
- Site and Page Usability Methodology
Why do all this if Google is going to throw traditional search out the window? Because people are people. Because users have a sixth-sense if a site is spam or not. Because users still read search engine results pages. And, most importantly, Google will not remove these factors from the algorithm. It's built an empire from making these, and link calculation methods, how relevance is calculated and then displayed.
2) Focus on Goal Conversion
That's the bottom line: are users converting on the site? Considering the economic disaster at-hand, small business owners probably care less about high traffic numbers, if they're not making any money. As an SEO, you are not only the traffic bringer', you're also the goal conversion expert. (At least you should be. And if you're not, you need to start learning quickly)
That's where SEO and SEM are headed: Goal Conversion. It's more important ever to be cognizant of goal conversion as the goal of SEO.

Thank you : )

Traffic – any way you can get it – is king but it helps to be targetted. No one wants a flood of junk traffic eating up server resources if you cannot monetize it. better 1 good buyer than 1000000 browsers i say

thank for share 😉

Bizen - better intelligence for franchises
Bizen is a new startup that provides business intelligence products and services for franchises. Bizen stands for "business intelligence zen" and has the tagline "better intelligence for franchises". Bizen is pronounced "bison".
After developing custom BI solutions for fortune 1000 companies, we are now turning our attention to franchise owners. As franchise owners ourself, we understand the need for simple, reliable, and easy to use reporting solutions for retailers. Our product is clean, intuitive, and designed to help franchise owners increase sales and maximize profits.
Our market is franchise business owners with a particular focus on retail franchises. Often times these are individuals who have had successful careers in management and are now opening their own businesses as a career change.
These store owners are typically not early adopters and have a low tolerance for wasting time and inefficient communication.
We want a logo that includes a simple picture of a bison (buffalo), in a stance reminiscent of the Wall Street bull. We feel that imagery will convey financial strength with a very stable and calm temperament. The stance of the Wall Street bull statue is aggressive with the head down and the horns presented. It does not need to be that exact stance, just inspired by it. The wall street bull is an image of financial growth and strength; a bull market. The bison is similar to a bull, but more stable. This imagery is aligned with the goals of franchise owners.
We are thinking that the head of the bison will be on the left with the body outlined over the top of the word "bizen". We are open to capitalization decisions.
Our initial thought is that the logo would be all black, but our colors will include blue and yellow as well (#266dbb, #ffc90b).
The font should be clean and reminiscent of financial services. Our initial thought is helvetica-ish, but we definitely defer to your expertise.
We are attaching a couple of pictures of the wall street bull statue as well as some pictures of a bison.
At the end of the project we will need the full PSD for the winning design.

NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Late last month, with their doors shut to the mounting market panic outside as investors fled the country, India's cabinet ministers gathered to give final approval to a cheap food scheme for the poor.
It was hardly a difficult decision for a government that needs to shore up its sagging popularity before elections due by next May. But officials familiar with the discussion say there was one dissenting voice over what is now destined to become one of the world's largest welfare programs.
Finance Minister P. Chidambaram, already struggling to convince doubters that he will keep the country's hefty fiscal deficit under control, made a last-minute attempt to trim the huge cost of the plan, estimated at about $20 billion a year.
Chidambaram's ultimate failure to win colleagues around - despite his famed eloquence - is emblematic of the predicament he faces: he must stop investors heading for the hills as economic growth skids to its slowest pace in a decade, but he is surrounded by politicians who haven't grasped that there is a crisis at hand and want to spend their way to the ballot box.
In many ways, Chidambaram has been grappling virtually alone with India's economic emergency since he became finance minister for a third time 13 months ago.
Cabinet colleagues, wayward allies of the ruling coalition and an obstructive opposition have together stood in the way of bold steps that might have averted this year's collapse of confidence in the India story.
It is a crisis within a crisis.
With elections looming, that won't change anytime soon, which means Chidambaram will find it difficult to take robust policy action if the situation goes from very bad to worse.
"If parliament is not able to point to the direction in which the country's economy will go, parliament is not able to agree on, say 10 steps which the government should take today ... what kind of a message will it send to the rest of the world?" he asked lawmakers in frustration last week as the rupee tumbled ever-lower into uncharted territory.
"The fact is, the polity of this country is divided on economic policies and that is understandable ... My plea to everyone, despite our differences: can we agree upon some measures which have to be taken in order to lift the country's economy from what it is today?" he said.
Chidambaram was not available for an interview for this story.
- Rupee, bonds, FX yields link.reuters.com/gaw89t
An almost comic spectacle of the country's policy deadlock played out in parliament last month as the monsoon session of the legislature got under way.
Lawmakers were so busy bawling at each other over issues that might sway voters - a corruption scandal, the partition of a southern state and communal violence - that over its first seven days the lower house spent just 12 minutes on legislative work and there were 11 sittings before a single bill was passed.
While New Delhi appeared nonchalant at the economy's bind, investors were not: they fled. The rupee has tumbled more than 20 percent since May and the fall in August was the biggest for any month on record.
In a matter of a few years, India has turned economic expansion of 8-9 percent into growth now struggling to reach 5 percent. The current account, the broadest measure of a country's international trade, has a record deficit, the manufacturing sector is shrinking, and credit ratings agencies are hovering.
"Our primary concern is that the policy authorities still don't 'get it' - thinking this is a fairly minor squall which will simmer down relatively quickly with fairly minor actions," said Robert Prior-Wandesforde, head of Asia economics research at Credit Suisse.
For sure, India is one of several emerging markets from Brazil to Indonesia hit by a flight of capital due to rising U.S. interest rates ahead of an expected tapering of the Federal Reserve's massive bond-buying program that unleashed liquidity across the world. It is doubtful that any policy action in New Delhi could do much to turn the tide.
Nevertheless, India's response has been less decisive than other emerging market economies. Most steps taken so far to address the problem have been small, such as lowering the cap on transfers of money abroad and slapping import duties on flat-screen TVs, measures aimed at reining in the world's third-largest current account deficit that is approaching $90 billion.
Some proposals have smacked of desperation. One minister last week suggested curbing diesel consumption by the railways, a bigger economic lifeline than in most countries, and the armed forces to cut import costs, an idea that got no traction.
The Economic Times newspaper reported on Saturday that the central bank wants Hindu temples to deposit their hoards of idle jewelry for conversion into bullion to meet demand for gold in the world's biggest consumer of the precious metal. The idea is that such a measure would reduce import demand for gold.
The last time Chidambaram was finance minister, in 2004-2008, growth was motoring at a near-double-digit clip: he used to call himself a "lucky finance minister" because of the neat timing. But fortune has hardly been on his side since returning to the job last year.
Aides say he has come under huge stress in recent weeks, but in public he has kept his cool, not surprising for the Harvard-educated lawyer who sharply told an interviewer earlier this year: "When did self-confidence become a vice?"
Financial markets have long had just as much faith in the smooth-talking politician as he has in himself. They remember his pro-business 'dream budget' of 1997 that brought taxes down, and when he returned to the finance ministry last year investors were thrilled, anticipating a new push for economic reform to end years of policy drift and an economic slowdown.
A short burst of reforms, including the opening up of retailing and aviation to foreign investors, followed. Chidambaram also succeeded in bringing down the fiscal deficit to 4.9 percent of GDP in fiscal 2012/13 from 5.8 percent, helping avert a sovereign credit rating downgrade.
However, the reform drive soon lost momentum, in part because of the main opposition party's recalcitrance in parliament.
But resistance within Chidambaram's Congress party was as much to blame.
Two senior ministers leaned on Prime Minister Manmohan Singh earlier this year to reverse a decision allowing 100 percent foreign direct investment in domestic pharmaceutical companies, a finance ministry source said. But Chidambaram pushed back, saying that if they had objections they should take them to the cabinet rather than surreptitiously lobbying the prime minister.
At a meeting in July, three ministers got together to push through extra funding for roads in the far-flung northeast and Jammu and Kashmir state, overriding cost concerns raised by the finance ministry.
And last month, Chidambaram wanted his colleagues to stick to the original version of the food security bill under which 18 out of 29 states would get less wheat and rice than allotted to them under an existing public distribution system because of a drop in the number of poor there.
But other members of the cabinet resisted him, warning that the opposition could block the landmark bill - which guarantees 810 million Indians grain at a fraction of market prices - when it got to parliament. Their argument carried the day, at an additional cost of 50 billion rupees a year.
"There is no point fighting it beyond a point," said a finance ministry official, recalling the wrangling over the legislation. "What we have said is that it's fine: you do this because that is the demand of the constituents, but you will have to cut somewhere."
Many in the left-leaning Congress led by Sonia Gandhi believe that the fruits of India's fast growth since it unshackled the economy from the grip of the state in the early 1990s were not shared with the country's millions of poor, and that electoral success lies in more distribution.
Critics say the problem is that a new group of aggressive second-rung leaders in the Congress party, pushing for 'inclusive growth', are setting out new principles of economic policymaking, creating further dissonance within government.
"Individual ministers and ministries are all running on their own. Nobody is looking at the national interest," said former Home Secretary G.K. Pillai, who served with Chidambaram when he was brought in to fix homeland security after the 2008 attack by militants on the city of Mumbai.
"Everyone has his own view, which is why you have different interpretations of cabinet decisions. The lack of leadership is telling."
The criticism may seem odd. Prime Minister Singh took bold steps in 1991 as then finance minister to set India on a high growth path after a balance of payments crisis, earning himself a place in history as the architect of India's emergence as a global economic power.
Now, he is routinely derided by the opposition and media for the policy drift of recent years. The 80-year-old broke his silence on Friday after weeks of market turmoil, telling parliament that whatever critics might say he still enjoys wide respect around the globe.
But when it comes to dealing with the currency crisis, markets will be hanging on every word of Chidambaram, not the prime minister. Congress party insiders say the finance minister plays a dominant role in cabinet meetings, often calling the shots even as the prime minister sits by.
The stakes are high for Chidambaram himself, who has been talked about as a potential successor to Singh if his party wins the election and Rahul Gandhi, the heir to the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty's mantle, insists on a behind-the-scenes party role for himself - like his mother, Sonia.
The baby-faced Chidambaram, who is from a wealthy business community in the southern state of Tamil Nadu, has a reputation for intellectual prowess, but also for arrogance that has made him enemies within his own party and on occasion alienated public opinion.
Political constraints ahead of the election have so far made potentially unpopular policy steps difficult to take, but if Chidambaram is indeed eyeing the premiership he may be reluctant to press for them himself.
Sanjaya Baru, a former media adviser to the prime minister, wrote in the Indian Express newspaper that the political climate has made Chidambaram less enterprising than he was in his first stint as finance minister in the 1990s and less confident than he was in the second.
"Now placed firmly in a potential line of succession to the top and with his hands constrained by the party's need to prevent any political mishap before an election, P. Chidambaram Mark-3 has proved to be more risk-averse," he said.

Finding the genetic basis of pediatric onset bipolar disorder has long been part of the mission of the JBRF.
Over the past decade there have been extraordinary technological advances made in identifying genes involved in a host of neuropsychiatric disorders, including adult forms of bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, autism, and ADHD, among others. Identifying the underlying genetic basis for such complex traits is quite difficult, and geneticists have had to rely on several different strategies, each requiring their own unique patient/family population.
Large multi-generation families with many affected members were needed for the earliest type of genetic analysis. The next strategy required affected sibling pairs, then family trios (mother, father and affected child). More recently, individual cases (thousands of them) have been needed. The newest technique – arguably the most challenging genetic strategy of all – is a very in-depth survey of the human genome that will require (going back full circle) the recruitment of families with many affected individuals. This could include multiple siblings with bipolar disorder, as well as their affected parents, grandparents, cousins, uncles and aunts.
On December 15th, the Lattner Family Foundation, Inc. granted JBRF $170,000 to undertake such a study with the goal of identifying the gene or genes suspect in early onset bipolar disorder.
This study will be undertaken in conjunction with various members of the JBRF research consortium. The genes will be sequenced at the Laboratory of Behavioral Genetics at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine under the supervision of Dr. Herb Lachman.

ROCKVILLE, MD--(Marketwire - Nov 21, 2012) - MarketResearch.com has announced the addition of Canadean's "New Insights into Under-Targeted Age Groups in Health & Beauty" to their collection of market research reports.
Aging populations mean older consumers are becoming increasingly important to the worldwide health & beauty market. Marketers in the Non-BRIC region are already adjusting to the power of the grey consumer; however, marketers in China will have to adjust as well as the sheer weight of numbers means that over-55s will drive Health & Beauty markets in the future. However, this age group's share of most Health & Beauty markets by value is less than their share of the overall population, and the difference is particularly large in Beauty-related markets.
As consumer awareness of the causes and effects of aging increases, there has been a shift in behavior from seeking "curative" solutions to "preventative" anti-aging, which safeguards against the aging process in the first place. This extends the anti-aging concept to include young consumers and vastly increases the number of people who might consider using these products, and creates lifelong consumers of anti-aging products.
"Value for Money" is key for early young adults as they seek to meet the strong pressure to look good, on budgets limited by the fact they are still in full time education or hold entry-level jobs, assuming they can find one. Over a quarter of the value of Health & Beauty products consumed by this age group were chosen on their ability to offer "Better Value for Money."
Furthermore, the importance of the "New Gender Behaviors" and "Individualism" consumer trends shows that products have to be clearly targeted to either men or women and meet specific, individual needs; it is impossible to be all things to all consumers.

Fall On-Campus Interviewing Program
Employment Opportunities
Fellowships & Scholarships
Job Fairs
The best way for students to make an informed choice about where they would like to work is to hear from those who have worked there in the past. The Career Services Office offers all students the chance to evaluate their summer experiences. In order for this to be a valuable resource for students, WE NEED YOUR HELP! Please take a few minutes to complete a brief survey about your summer experience at: https://law-kent-csm.symplicity.com/students/.
Once you have logged on, please click on "Summer Experience Survey" on the right-hand side under the "Career Tools and Advising" section. Then click "Add New" to complete the survey. You must click "Submit" when you are finished.
The information you provide helps our office better understand the different types of summer legal opportunities our students are experiencing. Also, by completing the survey, you are given the option of being a resource for other students by making your contact information visible on your survey. If you choose to allow students to contact you for further information about your summer experience, you may receive emails with additional questions about the method through which you obtained your position (i.e., fall OCI program, job fairs, networking, direct mailing, etc.) and specific information about the firm/organization where you worked. However, if you would like your evaluation to remain anonymous, simply select "No" to the following question: "May students contact you for further information about your summer experience?"
We greatly appreciate your assistance in making sure this is a valuable resource for students.
The Career Services Office is pleased to announce that videos of our programming are now available to be viewed online. Most of our programming will be available on our website within 1-2 days of the original program date and will remain available for viewing for 2-3 weeks, due to limited server space. Program videotapes will still be available in our office. A password is required to view these programs. Please call our office at 312-906-5200 or email firstname.lastname@example.com for the username and password. To watch videos of our programming, go to the CSO's web page, click on the right hand navigation bar "For Students" and select "Watch Program Videos." Or, click here to be taken directly to the page.
If you receive callbacks/offers during the fall interview season, please report this to our office by sending an email to firstname.lastname@example.com every couple weeks or so. Please include from what source you obtained the interview/offer (OCI, resume collect, CCBA job fair, Loyola Patent Fair, etc.). We keep track of these in order to determine how students are doing and where our students end up working during the summer/after graduation. Also, if you have any concerns about how your interviews are progressing or questions about the interview process, please make an appointment to talk with a career counselor.
The Midwest Public Interest Law Career Conference is an opportunity for students to interview and meet with government agencies and public interest employers for paid and unpaid legal positions next summer or for after graduation. Last year 100 Chicago-Kent students and 40 employers participated. 1Ls, 2Ls and 3Ls can all participate. The job fair will take place at Northwestern University School of Law on Saturday, February 5, 2011. To register, contact Meredith Schmitt firstname.lastname@example.com in the Career Services Office with your first name, last name, middle initial, year of graduation and an email address that you regularly check by Thursday, December 9, 2010 at 12 noon. Registered students will receive a login and password and will be able to upload their resume and bid on employers beginning on December 13. Students will have until January 7, 2011 to upload their resume online and select employers they would like to interview with. In addition, table talk is available at the job fair where you can meet with many of the employers, even if you do not receive an interview in advance. More information is available in this article and online at www.mpilcc.org.

Equal Justice Works and the Southern Public Defender Center have partnered to develop the Public Defender Corps, a pilot project that will provide three year fellowships inside select public defender offices for top students to engage in indigent defense with a strong training and support structure. This initiative addresses the ongoing national crisis of failing to provide quality representation to accused persons who cannot afford counsel.
Applicants to Public Defender Corps will undergo a rigorous selection process. Once selected, they will receive expert advocacy training and mentoring, and be integrated into a community of defenders to help them develop the skills needed to provide the highest quality of representation to clients and imbue them with a commitment to indigent defense reform.
Public Defender Corps is scheduled to launch as a pilot program in the fall of 2011 with approximately 20 Fellowship positions. Application and supporting documents are due by 5:00 PM on December 17, 2010. For application instructions and additional information about the Public Defender Corps, go to http://www.equaljusticeworks.org/programs/public-defender-corps/general

Garth Brooks Expected to Testify in Court Today
It's expected that Garth Brooks will testify in court today in regards to a hospital donation he made, according to Tulsa World.
Brooks donated $500,000 to a hospital in his Yukon, Okla. hometown, and the hospital is claiming that the country singer asked that the funds be returned, affter the hospital told him it would not be naming a wing after his late mother, Colleen Brooks, who died of cancer in 1999. Brooks and the hospital are currently embroiled in a lawsuit over the money, with Brooks fuming over the fact that the hospital didn't make good on its promise to honor his mother. He wants his funds returned, as he says he was misled.
Tulsa World also reports that Integris Canadian Valley Regional Hospital CEO and president James Moore discussed the Brooks donation and the return request in a March 2009 email.
In the email, which was brought into court on Thursday (Jan. 19), Moore wrote that the hospital "may not deny Garth access to the money," but could "make him work to get it."
Moore also testified that he never promised Brooks that he would exchange the name of a wing in favor of a half-million dollar donation. He claimed the gift was anonymous and unrestricted, so Integris could allocate the funds wherever it saw fit and to whatever initiative it pleased.
Here's where things get interesting. Moore also said that Brooks was toying with the idea of handing over $15 million if the hospital would rename itself after Colleen Brooks. There is an internal hospital document that quotes Brooks, saying he would offer that gift for naming rights and that was "exactly" what he had in mind. Brooks really loved his mother if he was willing to spend $15 million to honor her.
It seems like there is some contradiction. Moore says that it was an unconditional gift, but he also says Brooks offered a lot more cash for naming rights. So Brooks did seem to make his intentions known.
However, the defense attorney also shared a September 2008 email with jurors. It was from Brooks to Moore, where Brooks wrote: "I'm not sure what our understanding is," but "we have to come to some agreement." Clearly, there was confusion between the donor and donatee in this case.
We'll keep you posted as to how it plays out in the courts.

US, UK Poets Laureate on Being Public Face for 'Solitary Act'
April 30, 2012
"A poet should be private and invisible," says UK Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy, "This is a different way of being a poet, to be laureate." Meanwhile, "I think we witness things, but are not witnessed," says US Poet Laureate Philip Levine. They reflect with Jeffrey Brown on having very public roles as private poets.

Kahnle a surprise addition to final roster
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Rockies pitching coach Jim Wright knew a few things about Tommy Kahnle coming into spring training, but he learned so much more in the weeks that followed.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Rockies pitching coach Jim Wright knew a few things about Tommy Kahnle coming into spring training, but he learned so much more in the weeks that followed.
Wright knew Kahnle was a power right-hander with a good fastball, but he also heard about the pitcher's control issues.View Full Game Coverage
Wright admitted that he didn't know Kahnle's changeup was so effective, but he was also surprised to learn the pitcher did not have serviceable breaking pitch.
Here's what everyone knows now: Kahnle, a Rule 5 Draft pick from the Yankees, has a new slider and showed better command of the strike zone this spring. Those are two of the reasons he'll break camp with the big league club. The Rockies officially announced their 25-man roster Saturday, a list that includes Kahnle.
"We'll see how it goes. He's a guy who has earned the spot and he's worth the risk," Wright said. "He's a power right-hander, we tried to find a way to get him on the club and he did it."
Kahnle said he's been tweaking his delivery and working on improving his balance on the mound all spring. He changed the grip to his slider last week and used the new pitch Friday night against the Mariners.
"This is a dream come true," Kahnle said.
Kahnle joins a bullpen that includes LaTroy Hawkins, Rex Brothers, Wilton Lopez, Matt Belisle, Adam Ottavino, and Chad Bettis.
"From a baseball side of things, it's been everything I have prepared for this offseason and things this spring are falling into place," Bettis said. "I've really worked on fastballs inside and changeups, and the results have been really nice. But how I feel physically is so much better for me."
The starting rotation will be made up of Jorge De La Rosa, Brett Anderson, Tyler Chatwood, Juan Nicasio and Franklin Morales.
Left-handed-hitting outfielders Charlie Blackmon and Corey Dickerson join Carlos Gonzalez, Michael Cuddyer, Drew Stubbs and Brandon Barnes on the roster.
"My first big league action was in 2011 and at the time, you don't realize how hard it is to stay in the big leagues," Blackmon said. "This is the first time I've been through a Spring Training without any health issue in a long time and I'm really happy about that."
Charlie Culberson, who plays second base, shortstop and third base, and also spent time last year in the outfield corners, will serve as the team's utility man. First baseman Justin Morneau, second baseman DJ LeMahieu, shortstop Troy Tulowitzki and third baseman Nolan Arenado round out the infield.
Wilin Rosario and Jordan Pacheco will serve as the team's catchers.
"It wasn't easy," Rockies manager Walt Weiss said. "It took us right up to the eleventh hour, but like I've said all along, those guys are going to be with us. Things can change, and they can change quickly as we are seeing."
Jhoulys Chacin (right shoulder strain) and Boone Logan (left elbow inflammation) will start the season on the 15-day disabled list.
"I have much better feel for the team this year," Weiss said. "I look back on last year and it was a lot of assessment from my point of view. This time a year ago, I was just getting to know our club and I still had that throughout the season. For me, that's been the biggest difference."

In mortal combat I am joined
With monstrous words wherever coined.
"Beefburger" is a term worth hating,
Both fraudulent and infuriating,
Contrived to foster the belief
That only beefburgers are made of beef,
Implying with shoddy flim and flam
That hamburgers are made of ham.
That's why I literally love language!
