The Performance Improvement Fundamentals (PIF) course is a comprehensive curriculum based on LEAN and Six Sigma principles, developed specifically for individuals who have expressed interest in, and have demonstrated the potential for, improving things within their department.

It's difficult to entice workers to embrace training if the content is mediocre, uninteresting, irrelevant, or offered at times when they don't have freedom to focus. To get the most value from educational initiatives, organizations need to focus on the individual learner. Prioritizing a few key concepts can successfully shape a professional development program.
By Michael Ninness, Senior Vice President, Product and Content, lynda.com
Too often training goes unused. It's not relevant to the learner or fails to address a specific concern in a moment of need.
Even when training is consumed, learning does not always occur. And because technology and information are rapidly evolving, content used in training quickly becomes outdated.
Water treatment company Severn Trent Services broadened its benefits communication efforts to offer more intensive tools and resources, one of which provided a dynamic, training-based approach. As a result of this change, the company observed much higher rates of benefits engagement at new hire orientation and annual enrollment.

It happens every benefits enrollment season at every company around the country. Employees who want to get the whole benefits enrollment process over and done with simply sleepwalk through some of the most important decisions they could be making for themselves and their families for the rest of the year.
Something has to be done to wake these employees up!
The fear for many companies is that they spend time and money developing people, only to see them take those newly acquired skills to another company. However, training actually can increase employee retention, when the training reinforces the value of the employee. In addition, a well-designed training program plays a critical part in nurturing associates' psyches.

I thought I had hired the perfect person for the front desk. She was bright, articulate, and eager to learn the hotel business from the ground up. She was going to be my front desk star. I arranged an interview with the front office manager and she agreed: star material! Imagine my surprise and disappointment when two weeks later my new star was in my Human Resource director's office offering her resignation.
As a younger, technologically savvy generation takes its place in the workforce, simulation-based training in the energy industry will play an increasingly crucial role. Simulation technology is an easy way to bring fundamentals and theories for plant operations into real-world applications.

Remote workforces can be highly effective for all organizations across the spectrum of industries. But for this to be a successful solution, organizations must invest time and resources in building relationships, and ultimately engagement, with their remote teams before they can reap the rewards.

Baylor Health Care System has implemented an employee engagement survey every two years since 2004. After each survey, Baylor holds focus groups to determine clarity about the needs and best practices, and then implements a variety of training offerings.
Employers recognize the evidence that making health and wellness programs available to their employees makes sense—dollars and cents. But what they also are seeing is that offering such programs isn't enough. Getting employees to use them is turning out to be the real challenge.
By Peter Saravis, CEO and Co-Founder, Evive Health
One of the fundamental goals of any Human Resources professional is finding the most effective way to motivate employees and to engage them in ways that allow them to be their very best. But central to this simple truth is the reality that employees cannot perform as hoped if they are not healthy. And that puts corporate America at a disadvantage.
Measurement of employee engagement is the first and most critical step in improving it. With this information in hand, managers are better equipped to empower employees by providing clear expectations and feedback that will allow them to succeed while improving customer service and overall company profitability.
By Alan E. Hall, Founder and Chairman, MarketStar (now a division of Omnicom)
Imagine half of your workforce going through the motions while looking for other employment. According to a recent Gallup study on employee engagement, approximately 54 percent of employees in the United States are not engaged in their organization (http://www.gallup.com/poll/150383/Majority-American-Workers-Not-Engaged-Jobs.aspx).
First impressions are remarkably persistent. This is particularly true for new hires. Next-generation HR technologies are evolving into socially infused applications that recognize the value of the employee experience. This provides a valuable opportunity for organizations to leverage these systems to positively influence a host of HR programs/activities—specifically, employee "preboarding."

I always love self-righteously claiming my right of a "Mulligan" as it's often referred to in golf. You didn't like that drive? No worries, just tee up another ball and try again…
Unfortunately, Mulligans don't work so well in our professional lives.
The Hometown Home Loan Program helps both employers and employees. It enables employers to offer a low-cost, high-reward benefit to their overall benefits package, and employees get both financial help and real estate education to make smarter home buying decisions.

Back in the early 1990s, the city of Seattle faced a challenge. Due to the high costs of living in the city, police and fire department employees were forced to live in surrounding suburbs and neighboring cities, resulting in lengthier commutes. For these critical employees, response time—and hence proximity—was an issue.
A consistent pattern of education, practical application,and recognition strengthensthe learning process andhelps employees see themselves as an integral part of the company's mission. Formal employee rewards and recognition programs linked to training can be used to build on and reinforce training initiatives, support performance management,and motivate workforces, leading to increased bottom-line results.

To ensure a jolly holiday season, businesses must prepare the seasonal workforce to own the customer experience by demonstrating commitment to training and focusing on the building blocks of customer experience success.
By K.C. Blonski, Senior Director, Travel, Leisure, and Retail Markets, AchieveGlobal
Despite a still-sputtering economy, consumer confidence continues to grow as retailers up the ante when it comes to delivering customer service. With the holiday season in full swing, and retail success dependent on exceptional service, retailers cannot rely solely on holiday decorations and seasonal promotions to drive traffic and ultimately brand loyalty. They must focus on owning the customer experience.
Savvis' Global Learning and Development team was able to design an onboarding program that would quickly integrate and educate new employees while also building champions for the process within the business. So it wasn't doing something to the organization; it was creating a program with the organization.
When Jim Sokolowski arrived at Savvis Communications in 2010 to begin as director of Global Learning and Leadership Development, the company was experiencing double-digit growth, along with a change in senior leadership that brought a renewed commitment to human capital as a strategic enabler and competitive advantage. The challenge was to effectively build the organization's learning function from the ground up. Taking on such an effort brought up the question of where to start as there were plenty of obvious places that demanded attention.
Commander Navy Installations Command's new Training & Education Program incorporates the training lifecycle, curriculum development, training delivery methodology, and organizational training management processes.

For employees, the top two factors to improving job satisfaction are career development opportunities and training, and "more opportunities to do what I do best." Indeed, employees believe that greater resources, development and training opportunities, specific feedback, and clarity around organizational needs and goals would increase job satisfaction, according to Blessing White's 2011 Employee Engagement Report.
Meeting the staffing challenges of the future is paramount for any organization. In the current business environment, we've heard a lot about unemployment and jobs not being available, but as the economy continues to recover, the next challenge for companies is going to be the widening talent gap and changing workforce demographics before a possible war for talent begins.
Carefully assessing your level of risk, thoroughly vetting the service provider, and having clear specifications in the servicing agreement can help mitigate the risks of storing HR information and records in a cloud computing environment.
By Caryn Tijsseling, Litigation Partner, Lewis and Roca
The increasing popularity of cloud computing will have far-reaching effects on the data management systems of many companies. One area where cloud computing can have a major impact is on the storage of Human Resources (HR) information and records. In fact, recent studies indicate that up to 84 percent of surveyed companies either are transitioning or planning to transition their Human Resources functions to more accessible and affordable data management systems such as cloud systems.
Although computer-based e-learning has been established as an efficient and cost-effective way to train a large group of employees spread across the globe, bad training can end up costing more than good training when you calculate the time, resources, and opportunity cost wasted on training that does not provide the desired ROI. Here are seven best practices, to help your organization provide high-quality technology training.
By Bill English, CEO, Mindsharp
Engaging and inspiring a workforce starts at the heart of the matter: your company's goals. If an organization has a mission that engages and inspires the right employees, it can transform the company culture, and those effects will reverberate through how the company does business and deals with clients.
Every company wants their workers to be engaged, inspired, and working toward a common goal. But not every company has a plan for making that happen. An engaged and inspired workforce inspires people to work for your company, do business with your employees, and buy your products. How does an organization set itself apart as a place where people want to work and that people want to work with?
Organizations face daunting challenges and need to use every resource at their disposal to stay competitive. An engaged workforce that performs with energy, focus, and commitment is critical to organizational survival. Addressing the issues that drive engagement levels is a significant strategy to move from surviving to thriving.
By Ross Tartell, Ph.D.
Over the last decade, employee engagement has developed as a vital component of Human Resource strategy. But economic realities during the last few years have narrowed the focus of some companies to concerns about cash flow and sales, leaving employee engagement forgotten amid the imperative for economic survival. Stagnant growth and high unemployment characterized an environment that caused many employers to act as if employees were lucky to have a job and could easily be replaced if they didn't produce.
Digital 3-D modeling and animation technology has been used for decades in the scientific, architectural, and engineering industries, but its high cost has limited its use in more common, everyday applications.

Nine best practices and ideas for HR professionals looking to engage, retain, and develop high-potential Millennial employees.
By Brad Karsh, President, JB Training Solutions
Are your Millennials prepared to be your company's future leaders?
Every day more than 10,000 Baby Boomers reach the age of 65. This is going to keep happening every single day for the next 18 years. This startling statistic has chills running down the spines of HR professionals as they think about the organizational challenge of managing this drastic demographical shift in the workforce. Engaging and retaining the newest crop of workplace talent is a daunting challenge, but it has never been more important.
Many employees put teamwork and recognition at the top of the list of keys to improving workplace climate, but each business climate depends on the goals of the business. Focus on analyzing the kind of climate you need, whether it's about innovation, customers, or collaboration.

Hi all,
I've made a Browser Game with a friend and would love to get some feedback/comments.
Let me introduce our new project. The game we made is called Branes Battle, it's a Social Strategy Browser Game.
About the story:
The story is inspired by the String Theory which is an active research framework in particle physics that attempts to reconcile quantum mechanics and general relativity. It is a contender for a theory of everything. String theory posits that the elementary particles (i.e., electrons and quarks) within an atom are oscillating lines ("strings"). String theories also require the existence of several extra dimensions to the universe, in addition to the four known spacetime dimensions.
In Branes Battle, a strange dimension has been discovered by a bumbling mad scientist, where tribes of Branes abound, controlling the very material of the dimensions. Take control of your own group of Branes and defeat the other unruly tribes.
To find and destroy your enemies you will be able to utilize the powers of your Branes to control space and time in unimaginable ways. Use these mysterious powers to build your Brane brigade from the ground up. Strengthen your defenses and find new and interesting ways to surprise and overwhelm your opponents. You will need to gather resources to fund your empire's expansion and secure the safety of your troops before entering into conflict.
Bend the rules of physics in Brane's Battle and bring your Branes to the top of the world!
About the design:
Graphically, much of the game is in sharp contrast of black silhouettes with splashes of bright color, which gives the game a striking and memorable look. 2D visuals with the foreground predominantly in black, multi-layered backgrounds give the illusion of depth. The characters are inspired by 'Susuwatari' (black soots) in Chihiro's journey. The art style is already used in a lot of other games: Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet, Feist, world of goo, Patapon, Outland, Nightsky, etc.
What do you think about Branes Battle ?
Any advice you could give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Have a lovely day
Looking for feedback for my browser game

Well, one advice I will give is to remove or at least make it very easy at that login popup -- which implies a form asking for name, login, password, email, etc.
Most people (including myself) will just close the window and continue to the next post, without seeing your game.
Good luck.

"So extremely blessed... @10AJMcCarron. Congrats to Alabama and making history! #BCSChamps" is all she said in that message, posted at 11:07 p.m.
Musburger's fawning attention prompted a spate of criticism of the 73-year-old broadcaster, with some posters to Twitter calling his comments "creepy." The episode even spawned the creation of a parody Twitter account, "Horny Musburger."
CNN was not able to reach Musburger for comment through ESPN, but the network responded, saying: "We always try to capture interesting storylines and the relationship between an Auburn grad who is Miss Alabama and the current Alabama quarterback certainly met that test. However, we apologize that the commentary in this instance went too far and Brent understands that."
Far from being creeped out, Webb said Tuesday that she was "flattered" by the broadcaster's comments, entertainment website TMZ reported.
"I've been reading on Twitter that Musburger had backlash that he's 'creepy'," TMZ quoted Webb as saying. "If I were to see him I would say, 'I don't think you're creepy at all!' "
One of McCarron's teammates, center Barrett Jones, joked Tuesday in an appearance on CNN's "Starting Point" that he was jealous of Webb's sudden fame.
"Where's the love for the actual players?" he joked. "She is certainly very pretty. But I just think Brent needs to share the love a little bit, that's all I'm saying."
Webb is the second rather attractive member of a football audience that Musburger and network cameras have helped push into the limelight.
Back in 2005, when ABC cameras panned across a trio of scantily clad football fans during a Florida State football game, Musburger opined that "1,500 red-blooded Americans just decided to apply" to the school.
One of those fans, Jenn Sterger, went on to a 15-minutes-of-fame career with appearances in Maxim and Playboy and a job as the stadium host for New York Jets football games. Later, quarterback Brett Favre got in trouble for sending her lurid messages while he was a player on the Jets.

Were it not for the increase in the wins column, we'd be in a 5 way tie for the 4th overall pick, and I think we'd be first in SOS. Here come 3 more wins to complete screw our draft position, while still not being good enough for the playoffs, and possibly giving Dean a reason to keep Smitty and Norv around.
I see that you're looking forward to the continuation of the Turner/Smith era, as well as our upcoming 20th overall pick. Good for you.
I'm not looking forward to anything I can't control. Norv & AJ are gone, you can celebrate that. I'll celebrate the win instead and enjoy rubbing the noses of whiny little bookyaks like yourself in it.
Bold is not a word. You think Norv and AJ will be gone if they roll off another 3 wins? Really? I think that Spanos was irritated by the media reports that he's firing them, and will hang onto them if they win out.
You don't know what bookyak means? Google is your friend. And yes, Norv & AJ are gone regardless how these last three games play out. You can celebrate that.
There is NO correlation between this win and the fallacy of a continuation of a Turner/Smith era. First round draft picks don't always pan out no matter where you pick. Dean has NO choice now, but to at least fire Norv and quite possibly AJ as well. First win against Stillers in regular season Chargers history! I'll take that. :Caution: The following might be difficult to follow for the mentally conservative. :Caution: This team needs a winning mentality, not a mentality of let's lose for better draft position. That way of thinking coincides with how a certain group of people wish upon a certain leader of state to fail, which makes a certain nation fail, just so they can select a new leader that meshes with their skewed worldview. I know, slightly political, and if I'm wrong..then I'm wrong. (though I doubt it)
As far as AJ and Norv I agree...they are goners. But the draft picks....I'd like to know that Joeckel will be there rather than hoping he will....and really thats all that was affected by this win, less security.
You always want the team to have a winning mentality. That doesn't mean that it's not better for the team if they lose out the rest of the season. Bold is completely off base. I'm a Libertarian, neither of the candidates were acceptable to me, for a host of reasons on either side. I want America to do well under Obama, that doesn't mean that I think he's doing a good job, or leading the country in the way I think is best, constitutional (apparently the Supreme Court disagrees with me on this one), or "American". Back to Football, Norv was a dead lock to get fired last season when we were 4-7. Then he rattled off a 4-1 record and was retained.
I hate him with my soul, but that's completely irrelevant to whether or not I think that Deano has the spine to fire them after another 8-8 season.
Fine, then why dont you just come out and say that the team should just forfeit their remaining games to protect the players they want to keep? You already carry a loser mentality, why not go all the way?
If it were an option, it would have been in there best interests to forfeit all remaining games after the Ravens loss. Actually, giving KC a "W" might've put us in position to pick 1st overall, so the 2nd KC game would've been the time. I love this talk of a "loser" mentality. Believe me, your attempts to insult me are as transparent as your belief that the NFL is a linear system of quality where the number of Ws accumulated year over year is a mark of increased performance and team quality. Winning 3 more games won't give this team a winning attitude, it won't improve them for next season, and it won't result in anything other than diminishing our opportunities for improving our team. If we win the next three games, which, since that's the worst outcome for the team, will most likely now happen, we will have done the equivalent of trading back 15 spots in the draft in exchange for nothing.
Since you want to play word nazi, CAPS is the correct word. And with the above post you just proved how you posess a loser mentality. Wishing your team to not just lose, but FORFEIT their remaining games is beyond weak. "You play to WIN the game".
Let's just stick with this logic. If we lose enough games for the next 3 seasons, we could end up with 3 overall #1 draft picks. Sounds good to me.
The Chargers should change their names to the Quilts. At least they won with a patchwork team. And they covered the spread... No pun intended.
You play to win Championships. You should listen to more Vince Lombardi and less Herm Edwards. Talk about a loser mentality. Also, you should've capitalized "Nazi", as it's a proper noun. Thank you for correcting my typo, my touchpad on my laptop has been acting up, probably as a result of my 10 month old banging on the keyboard like it's a piano, resulting in many lost trains of thought and unfortunate editing errors.
You're not grasping the argument, which is why you drug it out to a false conclusion, albeit a logical one based on your misunderstanding. If the team is in a losing season (can't make the playoffs), there is nothing to be gained by winning. Winning in the regular season is in fact only rewarded in so far as it allows a team to advance to the postseason. In the context of a single season, when winning no longer provides this possibility, winning then serves only to punish the team in question by reducing their ability to select the most talented incoming players. Moreover, additional wins forestall changes in management or on the coaching staff, which would otherwise benefit the health of the roster. Look at Buffalo's decade of mediocrity and ask, "Why did it happen?" Because they weren't good enough to make the playoffs, but weren't bad enough to bring in the level of talent they needed. Look at Indy. Coaching change, massive roster improvement, and they went from 2-14 to (so far) 9-4 with a virtually guaranteed playoff berth.
You strike me as the kind of guy who would advise a Democrat Presidential Candidate to invest all of their advertising dollars into CA, because it has the most votes. Seeing the bigger picture, rather than its component parts, doesn't appear to be your strong suit.
You're not explaining the loser argument well enough. Now though, I think I understand what you're saying. Now, let's see if I can explain my side, which I'll lamely call the "winning culture" side. Players in the NFL are conditioned to win. So it's not a mental thing where guys are thinking, "hey, let's lose so we get a better draft pick." Teams are built to win (hopefully) every game they are in. Having a winning culture means that you expect to win on a consistent basis. Teams like the Patriots and the Steelers and the Giants are always in the playoffs, not because they play for draft position. They are rewarded a late first round selection because they have the talent to always expect to win. You threw a few team names out there and I'll do the same. Look at the Browns, look at the Bengals, look at the Lions...those teams constantly choose in the top 10 in every draft since the invention of football. Is it because they use "strategery" (excuse the Bushism) to get that top draft pick? No, it's because they have a "losing culture". They can't ever seem to get their shite together and a large part of it is because right around the mid-season mark, they give up. They're not built for the long haul. But hey, they get another top 10 pick. Not just one top 10 pick every few years..no, a top 10 pick every year. What has this gotten them? It hasn't gotten them shite, when you have a "losing culture". You play to win every game. Screw draft position. I remember one year we had the number 2 overall selection. Ring a bell? How did that pan out? Okay, well it's been nice and I'll let you get your last argument in because frankly, I know we'll never agree on this topic. Adios, got to go start a bonfire outside...and enjoy the win against Pittsburgh with a drink and a fire and some knucklehead kids running around.
First, you again misunderstood. This has nothing to do with what the players think or the coaches want, it's simply the outcome which is best for the team. Of course you don't want players who think, "wow, we should lose this game and get an awesome pick next year." false, they're awarded a late first round selection because the NFL assigns the last 12 picks based on order of elimination in the playoffs and quality of record. They consistently had top ten picks, because they consistently blew them on epic draft busts, and none of those teams had QBs until Stafford, Dalton, and possibly Weeden came along. The act of pairing Dalton and Green, and Stafford and Megatron, took both of those teams to the playoffs last season. Again, the players play to win the game. That doesn't mean that that's the outcome we as fans should be rooting for, or that it's the optimal outcome for the team. One year we had the number 3 selection and traded up to snag a QB who had sucked his whole career but who had a great statistical game in a losing effort at a bowl game, and was fat. Obviously, picking like a moron doesn't improve your team. Winning in the regular season doesn't either.
Well there is a difference between fans who think with their hearts and fans who think with their heads. I'll go for the big picture over the warm fuzzy feeling of a meaningless win, that will be long forgotten come January 1st.

A quality headphone stand for cheap
Parts list:
Main stand portion: Bjarnum Shelf Bracket 11''
Headphone holder post: Capita Leg 4''
Wire wrapping posts: Attest Knob
He says, "Some shorter bolts are needed for mounting the leg and knobs to the Bjarnum Shelf Bracket. They can be found at your local hardware store. Take the Capita Leg and Attest Knob to the hardware store with you to find the appropriate thread pattern and size. (metric thread size) The new bolts for the Attest Knob need to be 1/2'' long, and the new bolt for the Capita Leg should be no longer than 3/4''.
One hole needs to be drilled with a 3/8'' or equivalent drill bit, and that is for mounting the Capita Leg to the 'top front face' of the Bjarnum Shelf Bracket. Measure 1'' down from the top and center of the front face of the shelf bracket. Drill the hole carefully so it is perfectly on center. After that is drilled, you can put the large bolt through the hole and mount the Capita leg to the shelf bracket.
Now, there are already two other holes that were supposed to be used for set screws on the shelf bracket, but it turns out the knob bolts will fit through them perfectly. Put the small bolts through those holes and thread on the knobs. Then all you need to do is mount the assembled headphone stand to your desk. I drilled some 3/16'' holes through my desk and mounted it with machined bolts, using washers and nuts on the other side to keep it secure. If you don't want to drill through your desk, you can also make a custom base for it, but that is up to you."

Lauri's headphone stand from a toilet roll holder
She says, "I modified Grundtal toilet roll holder to a nice headphone stand. It stands next to my new rack that is made also from Ikea materials. The moding was very easy. Just slowly bend the metal."

What is "equivalent" to a 3/8" drill :). Seriously - looks pretty good!
ReplyDelete i was inspired by w1retap to make them myself. i've uploaded pictures in my flickr account for those still on the fence of making theirs. they can be found here: my flickr ikea diy headphone picture set

Any idea for where to get a nice birch wood (or other) base for this project?
ReplyDelete - AnonymousSeptember 07, 2008 4:07 PM
So I went ahead and built one of these. Looks quite nice. Unfortunately, Ikea (USA) will not ship all the parts anymore. I think it's the Capita leg that's the problem, but I don't remember. They still had stock at the one I went to.
To answer some other questions - the Capita leg is U-shaped, so it is open to the back. That makes it very easy to install the hardware.
I found the bolts at Lowes in the hardware drawers for small projects that they have in the fastener section. For the Attest knobs, I had to get a metric size.
For a base, I am temporarily using a free Ikea flooring sample that they had in the self-serve area. It looks ok for now :). - AnonymousDecember 19, 2008 1:51 PM

What model are those headphones?
they look like Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro. i have a set, and they are fantastic.

"what model headphones are those"
I believe they are Beyerdynamic dt-770's
I have a pair and I love them. Few things. First, I used a 3/8 bit and the bolt didn't go throw so I had to use a larger bit, so you may want a larger bit. Second, since the head phone holder comes in a 4 pack I have 2 extra (made 2 of them). So i'll mail them to you for $2 dollars plus shipping. They are $10 dollars for the 4 pack, new. Please read the comments bellow before you email me to see if I still have them.
US residents only please.
dark d o t phenomenon a t gmail d o t comI love this idea, and I think more than one is good to have. I have multiple pairs of head phones and even ones for Mixing (yea, I know I shouldn't mix with headphones, but my neighbors already called the cops for "gun shots" in the music). I always ended up putting them on my pop filter though. Great idea! I love the entire blog and this post. Definitely a money saver.

by Mitch Albom
Hyperion | September 4, 2012 | Hardcover
The man who became Father Time.
In Mitch Albom''s newest work of fiction, the inventor of the world''s first clock is punished for trying to measure God''s greatest gift. He is banished to a cave for centuries and forced to listen to the voices of all who come after him seeking more days, more years. Eventually, with his soul nearly broken, Father Time is granted his freedom, along with a magical hourglass and a mission: a chance to redeem himself by teaching two earthly people the true meaning of time.
He returns to our world--now dominated by the hour-counting he so innocently began--and commences a journey with two unlikely partners: one a teenage girl who is about to give up on life, the other a wealthy old businessman who wants to live forever. To save himself, he must save them both. And stop the world to do so.
Told in Albom''s signature spare, evocative prose, this remarkably original tale will inspire readers everywhere to reconsider their own notions of time, how they spend it and how precious it truly is.

Was thinking this week about the government and some people and then about a song about me, Lights and Sounds by Yellow Card, that was my human contact from these people when I let them know the phone was being bugged, wanted to say they avoided the subject telling me to sell it all tell how I needed love and no one was there, the subject was you were bugging my phone . Does it seem like I am a mule kicking the chickens in the pen .
Bugged phones? Don't need 'em then. I'm imagining our Montana lighting set woods on fire and sending you smoke signals of I love you and I am here you are not alone. I know you have a way, P&J, I believe in you.
Awesome. It sounds like your doing great. Man that math sucks. I don't know that I could do it again. I commend you on that one because it is by far one of the hardest subjects for me. I could write all day, do computers, science is my subject but math, oh nooooo! I've been on the diet too. Insulin is making me gain weight so I went on low carb height protein diet doing palates, Thai chi, and free weights. It's a tough challenge though because the diet is so difficult and the insulin regimen . The insulin puts the carbs directly into fat cells as glucose so I try to maintain my diet to use less. Anyway, I'm excited for all going on the cruise. I would love to be going but got a lot going on so maybe next year. Time will fly and you will be graduating before ya know it. My sister has 4 semesters left for her masters in teaching and I am so proud of her. She's been going 4-5 years now and started in jr college but now attends university of north Texas . Be careful on those night shifts. I'm glad they have it safe for ya. Just keep swimming. Literally because your gonna be cruising soon. Pun intended.
How's school Beckxy ? Hopefully all is well. Just think you'll be where Ajay is in no time!
I'm sure he has more but I haven't had a chance to listen but I will definately take the time to listen for sure!
My favs are roll on Rollercoaster -prob my fav, blue jeans and rosaries, picture, care, the one w Zach brown? Can't buy cool, oh man there are just so many, cowboy, only God knows why, black chick white guy, sex rhymes w snoop, sugar tonight, single father, happy new year, absolutely Catt boogie, midnight ferry, cocky, damn I don't think there any I don't like. It's all good! To me he's like Elvis in the sense he covers so many types of music and is adored by fans and Michael Jackson in the fact of mass appeal, crossing the cultural and racial barriers, being adored by many. The big difference , he's real, the real deal, doesn't hold back, says what he feels regardless of what society is going to think-which most if not all agree . He doesn't try to sweep shit under the rug. It's out there, it's who he is, take or leave it. I think if more people were like that and stood up for what they believed, we would have less problems in this world. Oh yeah and Bobby I got some music for ya as soon as I get it transferred over to YouTube . I really enjoyed it and not because it was my sons and when he sampled the sampler, I couldn't help but laugh. He has 2 originals.
I hafta giggle...a 19 friend visited and was enjoying Rebel Soul...I'd asked him before to guess the artist (which he wanted to know before listening) but I asked him to humor me. He has an eclectic and deep knowledge of really good music so I wanted to see his reaction fresh, unbiased. Although he knew some of Kid's previous artistry, he couldn't guess Kid Rock until 2 1/2 songs in! Pretty cool Kid keeps a 19 year old music connoisseur guessing. Then my friend put together a kick ass iPod playlist and it was awesome, but I hadta giggle again, because with Kid you don't need a playlist...you just hit play, baby! :) There's a mood and emotion to go along with all of mine and so I just sit back and enjoy the journey Kid takes me on every single time...every one! :) His music kicks ass! :) At some point later I hoped I could get my friend's honest input on another of Kid's songs...so I played Cucci Galore...come on, my friend's 19, I wanted to know :) Well, he started in right along, especially echoing "who are you" etc. and he was really enjoying it...but again, he had not a clue until after he laughed hearing the douchebag lyric and said, is this still Kid Rock? And then he kept happily singing along in a 19 year old guy kind of cool way! :)
Hell yeah it's all good! :) I have so many favorites, I don't know where to start!?! I love all the ones you listed RJL and I agree with the Elvis/MJ comparisons...well said! I 100% agree with 'the big difference' because Kid is real...I love that he doesn't hold back, says what he feels, and doesn't try to sweep shit under the rug...AMEN!!! He inspires me every day to stand up and say what I believe. God bless him :)
Not old Angelique but distinguished, mature, smarter. Age is in the eye of the beholder. You are as old or young as you feel and I feel like a kid in the candy store. Hi Beckxy. Haven't been on Facebook lately but I'm putting some picks of mys sons studio w Montana's help soon. Thanks Montana. Oh and thanks Angelique for the songs used in his songs. I couldn't figure them out for the life of me. He does it so well that just when you think you got it, he starts singing and you completely lose it. Lol
I feel like a kid in a candy store, too! :) A bit Charlie in Willy Wondka, I might say :) And I love me my candy! :) Mmmmm...Sugar ;) Happy to help whatever way I can, RJL :) I had no idea whatsoever about the songs used in his songs...oh, no, now I have to go listen again?!?! LOL! Ugggghhh, the rough life I lead ;) LMAO! And, yes, I melt the moment he starts singing; I completely lose it when I hear his voice :)

Team Rubicon's unique program simultaneously addresses two issues. Rather than focusing on vocational training that attempts to teach new job skills, Team Rubicon repurposes veterans' existing skills—emergency medicine, risk assessment and mitigation, teamwork and decisive leadership—to solve another need: more effective disaster response.
Since its creation in January 2010, Team Rubicon has impacted thousands of lives — in Haiti, Chile, Burma, Pakistan, Sudan, and in the United States. Whether responding to natural disasters in Vermont or the Sudan, Team Rubicon's volunteers help victims outside the scope of traditional aid organizations.

Thus, Mimolette was born. Aged Mimolette is a hard cheese that has the same texture and spherical shape as Dutch Edam, but with a natural rind. It is produced in nine pound spheres containing a bright orange interior. Because of its hue, it is sometimes called "Halloween Cheese." It tastes gloriously sweet, yet uncommonly tame for a French cheese.
Aged Mimolette, popular throughout France, is a dense cheese, hard enough to be grated. Enjoy it chunked or served with a hearty bread and fruit.

No. 9 EMCC Lions grind out 20-17 road win over Hinds in non-divisional MACJC gridiron matchup |
RAYMOND – Ninth-ranked East Mississippi Community College's first road test of the 2011 football campaign proved to be just that, as the visiting Lions managed a narrow 20-17 victory over a game Hinds Community College squad Thursday night at Joe Renfroe Stadium on the Raymond campus.
Despite more than doubling the home-standing Eagles in total yards on offense, 504-250, in the non-divisional MACJC contest, EMCC could not breathe easy until the final horn. However, things looked very promising for the visitors during the outset, as the Lions produced points in two of their first three possessions. It took EMCC just under two minutes and only five plays to move 50 yards down field following Rodney Davis' game-opening 50-yard kickoff return. With freshman running back Rodriguez Moore setting the tone with gains of 14 and 30 yards on the ground in his first two carries of the game, fellow freshman quarterback Bo Wallace found Lacoltan Bester cutting across the middle of the field three plays later for a 3-yard scoring strike. Sophomore kicker Taylor Walker connected on the point-after-touchdown to make it a quick 7-0 game by the 13:11 mark. With Hinds' first two possessions of the game resulting in three-and-outs, the Lions went on top 10-0 with Walker's 28-yard field goal late in the first quarter. The former Northwest Rankin product atoned for his errant 39-yard field-goal attempt earlier in the quarter. The Eagles got on the scoreboard as the opening period expired when quarterback Deon Anthony connected with Quantavius Leslie on a 20-yard scoring play through the air. Kyle Williams' PAT trimmed Hinds' deficit to 10-7 heading into the second period. The second quarter pretty much featured a battle of the placekickers with each kicker converting on 1-of-2 attempts during the period. EMCC's Walker got things started by capping a 13-play drive with a successful 27-yard attempt. On Hinds' subsequent drive, Williams' 39-yarder sailed left to keep the score at 13-7 in favor of the visitors from Scooba, Later in the period, the Eagles would capitalize on Tavarius Wilson's midfield interception of a Wallace aerial with Williams' successful boot from 19 yards out. The Lions responded quickly by getting the ball downfield with the half winding down, but Walker's 29-yard attempt misfired on the final play of the first half. East Mississippi managed the only scoring of the third quarter by mixing up the pass with the run on its first possession of the period. With Wallace connecting on all five pass attempts during the drive, Davis' 16-yard end-around set up Moore's 10-yard scoring burst up the middle. Walker's PAT put the Lions in front, 20-10, with 10:14 remaining in the third quarter. The contest then settled into a defensive mode, as both teams traded punts on the next four combined possessions. Hinds put up a fight in the final period by putting together a 16-play, 55-yard scoring drive that chewed up 7:26 on the game clock. Anthony's 2-yard dive into the end zone and Williams' PAT kick trimmed the margin to 20-17 with 6:02 left in the contest. With Wallace, the reigning NJCAA Offensive Player of the Week for his efforts in last week's 34-30 season-opening home win over then-second ranked Mississippi Gulf Coast, at the controls, the Lions whittled away the final 5:52 by basically staying on the ground. Wallace himself was instrumental in keeping the drive alive midway through the possession with back-to-back, 4-yard pickups by first escaping a sack on a third-down play and then rolling right on a fourth-down conversion to essentially seal the victory. Wallace, a former Arkansas State transfer hailing from Pulaski, Tenn., finished the contest completing 27-of-41 passes for 272 yards and one touchdown. Wallace evenly distributed his aerials among seven different receivers on the night, led by Meridian's Hamp Glover with six catches for 79 yards. Moore, a first-year performer from Bastrop, La., bolstered EMCC's 232-yard team rushing attack by tallying 202 yards of his own on the ground on 23 attempts. Now 2-0 on the season after having already avenged last year's setbacks to MACJC South Division foes Gulf Coast and Hinds, head coach Buddy Stephens' No. 9 EMCC Lions travel to sixth-ranked Northwest Mississippi next Thursday (Sept. 15) for a crucial Top 10 showdown between preseason North Division favorites. Kickoff in Senatobia is set for 6:30 p.m. |

City of Alexandria, VA
Voter Services for Persons with DisabilitiesThe Alexandria Electoral Board and Voter Registration Office make every reasonable effort to see that all voters have full access to voter registration and voting within the City of Alexandria. In particular, the Board seeks to establish and maintain polling places and voting systems that are compliant with laws covering the accessibility of persons with disabilities. As the Board formulates precinct recommendations to city council the issue of maintaining and improving accessibility is high on the list of criteria for establishing polling places. In addition, the Board closely consulted the Alexandria Commission on Persons with Disabilities when considering various voting systems and ultimately selecting eSlate, easily the most accessible voting system available. While the Board recognizes the necessity of maintaining fully accessible polling places, due to the nature of some disabilities and the preference of some who have disabilities, the law provides for alternatives to regular polling place voting. The following voting methods are available to persons with disabilities, injuries, or illnesses:
Accessibility AdvisoryThe Virginia State Board of Elections in 2006, recognized Alexandria for bringing all polling places in full compliance with state and federal accessibility standards. All requests for reasonable accommodation due to disability should be made to the Office of Voter Registration and Elections with at least 48 hours notice. Call 703.746.4050.

I dont know about the ceviche... But i took that rice recipe (which ive used about 6 times now) and modified it by adding mushrooms, rosemary and a little more butter. Served it with fish this weekend. AWSOME!!!
I got laid off when they closed that asbestos factory, and wouldn't you know it, the army cuts my disability pension because they said that the plate in my head wasn't big enough.
I made some a few weekends ago. just gave up on the recipe and tried my own version. it was pretty good for the first shot. i will definitely take your daughter's recipe. i love to try new recipes out all the time and then adapt and combine to my own taste. Kind of like KuznEdy did with my rice recipe. I am now going to try that version of it... Yummy.
We just made a pretty good ceviche in culinary school last week. I could give you that recipe if you like.
I want to rock and roll all night...and part of everyday
There are all different kinds of ceviche, we've made three different ones in my Latin Cuisine class so far. None of them had crab, but one of them was a shellfish ceviche which I'm sure you could put crab into if you so desired.
Here's a picture of the fish ceviche we made two weeks ago. It's the dish on the far right.
I want to rock and roll all night...and part of everyday
I love the GPS pics being peppered into this post. haha!
SC 2010, 2011 & 2012! "Old enough to know better, but still too drunk to care"

Designed to distribute weight evenly, the Local Identity's adjustable harness straps are wide, padded and body contoured.
To help wick away perspiration, the rear of the bag and underside of its harness both feature Air Mesh padding.

We construct the Local Identity with ultra durable materials and reinforce the joining and/or stitching on all stress points. That's why it carries Crumpler's famous lifetime guarantee.
Within the first three months if the bag fails due to defective materials of workmanship (under normal use) we will replace or repair the product no questions asked. You must however have the original receipt and provide it to us as proof of purchase.
After three months, if the bag fails due to defective materials of workmanship (under normal use) we will repair the bag. If the fault is deemed to have occurred under abnormal circumstances then we will contact you before repairing the bag at your cost (after gaining your approval to do so).
In either case take your bag (and proof of purchase) to one of our stores or post the bag to us at Crumpler HQ where we will make the assessment.
I previously owned a Crumpler camera bag and a laptop bag. When I got the tip of a very nice and competence sellers in NY-SOHO store if this bag so I was a little skeptical. But when I got the chance to test it with my equipment, I understood why she thought that I would buy it. I use it mostly as a camera bag, but many times can I take my 15 "laptop and then it is even more perfect. It is very comfortable and stylish. I recommend it strongly for those who travel a lot or is in the" field "and working with photos.
