CELTIC have very little time to lick their European wounds as a very important trip to Aberdeen looms for the Scottish Champions.
After the disappointment in Russia, the bhoys must refocus and take on a side who haven't been beaten at home in the past five games.
However, while Aberdeen haven't suffered defeat at Pittodrie lately – Celtic have won the last nine encounters in all competitions including two cup finals!
The Dons will also be looking to pick themselves up after being beaten 2-0 by Hibernian last week.
Former Celtic players Niall McGinn and Gary McKay-Steven are expected to start for the Dons. Celtic still have notable absentees in Patrick Roberts, Stuart Armstrong, Craig Gordon and Leigh Griffiths. Marvin Commper is apparently trying to get match fit now after shaking off an injury that has postponed the start of his Celtic career.
The major talking point from a Celtic fans point of view is will Dorus de Vries be dropped to give Scott Bain his debut as a Celtic player?
De Vries has come in for heavy criticism for his performance against Zenit and many feel Rodgers should cut his losses with the player the Irishman brought to Celtic from Nottingham Forest.

Central travelled to Decorah last night for an Iowa Conference basketball doubleheader with Luther, and the women dropped the opener while the men won the nightcap.
Emily Dine scored 17 points and grabbed five rebounds in a 66-48 loss as the Dutch women fell to 2-3 overall.
Luther raced out to an 11-0 lead in the first quarter and Central cut the lead to 4 with 3:37 left in the first half but never closed the gap.
After a brutal non-conference schedule the Central men finally got their first win of the season over the Norse, 86-82. With the win, Central improved to 1-4 on the season
The Dutch took a 46-40 lead into halftime before Luther battled back to take a 47-46 lead early in the second half. The two teams traded the lead until Central captured a 69-68 advantage with 9:15 remaining in the game and the Dutch never relinquished the lead.
Central was led by Kyle Smith's 23 points and six rebounds.
Up next for both squads is an Iowa Conference doubleheader Saturday at home against Dubuque.

Comment Of The Day: March 30, 2010
Feeling Hot In Your Absence written by Monica Stevens, was an inspirational Dear Thyroid letter about her thyroidectomy. From the infancy stages of her diagnosis, to post-op, Monica went there and reminded us that regardless of disease, we can find our way back to ourselves.
Thank you to everyone for sharing as much of yourselves as you did and for lending so much support to Monica.

Cyndi Woodruff says: March 30, 2010 at 4:38 pm
What a beautiful letter. Brought tears to my eyes. Your gratitude and peaceful feelings towards your thyroid are admirable.
I also appreciate your "living in the moment†kind of attitude. It is all we have and since we can never 're-live' one moment, it makes sense to enjoy where we are;.NOW.
Thank you for the reminder;.and please know that you are an inspiration.
Today's second installation of: Myth-Busting: The Good Cancer. We're Talking About Thyroid Cancer Part Two, following the first installation about how marginalized thyroid cancer patients feel when told "You have the good cancer" among other things; offered another perspective about thyroid cancer. If you missed it, please give it a read.
HD, thank you for guest blogging on Dear Thyroid; we loved having you.
Thank you to everyone for your comments and providing us with a glimpse regarding your perspective about thyroid cancer.

Kairol Rosenthal says: March 30, 2010 at 3:12 pm
Fantastic part 2. It is important that in our race to erase the slamming kinda of "your so lucky to have the good kinda cancer comments†we don't forget the parts of this disease that behave differently to other kinds of cancer and are sometimes in our benefit. This is an awesome two parter!

Free Track Plans for your Model Railway
Layout Plans
Hornby Plans
Prototype Plans
Waverley Bridge
4x1 Seven Sidings
Minimum radius = 2nd radius
If you're a fan of shunting for shunting's sake then this might be the plan for you, with a short passing loop and a total of seven sidings (including the short spur that goes off-scene). This is most suited to an industrial location, with each siding being used to store a different commodity. The operator, bringing in a mixed train of several wagons, then has to exchange 'full' wagons for 'empty' ones, and vice versa the next time around. Although there is little room for anything other than railway tracks, some low relief warehousing around the edge will help set the scene.

Metro-East News
Lewis & Clark employees told to take classes to boost enrollment, trustee says
Lewis & Clark Community College employees were asked to enroll in academic courses to boost enrollment, according to David Heyen, a member of the Board of Trustees.
Heyen said that two people he trusts told him they were verbally requested to enroll, although he does not know whether they actually signed up for classes.
"(It's) kind of a new edict," he said.
Heyen, who said he's been a trustee for six months, plans to bring up the topic at the next board meeting, which was scheduled for 7 p.m. Tuesday.
"There's been a lot of strange things going on over there," he said, referring to a story from Fox 2, which reported Nov. 2 that the college's president, Dale Chapman, and his spouse are paid roughly $700,000 a year.
The station also reported that Chapman accepted a $1.8 million retirement payout in 2010, only to return to work two months later.
Classes at the college cost $144 per credit hour, and one class is three hours long, Heyen said.
Lori Artis, vice president of administration for the college, said in an email the only classes faculty are asked to take are for training. They include topics such as Title IX, the Clery Act, ethics training and other requirements. Most of these are online training courses.
"These courses are not aimed at boosting enrollment numbers," Artis said. "They are a function of keeping Lewis and Clark legally compliant with state and federal policies."
"Lewis and Clark has had both enrollment increases and decreases over the past few years," she said. "Lewis and Clark is not focused on boosting enrollment numbers. One of the college's major strategic goals is focused on retention and completion."
Because Heyen only recently became aware of the situation, he didn't know how many people were asked to take classes, how many were being taken or who asked employees to sign up. Still, he reiterated that the classes they were asked to take were not mandatory training, but academic.
"That's what I understand," Heyen said.
Approximately 15,000 students take courses at Lewis & Clark each year, according to the college's website. It was founded in 1970, and today it employs more than 600 faculty across three campuses in Godfrey, Edwardsville and Alton.

BBB's mission is to be the leader in advancing marketplace trust. We do this by:
- Setting standards for marketplace trust
- Encouraging and supporting best practices by engaging with and educating consumers and businesses
- Celebrating marketplace role models
- Calling out and addressing substandard marketplace behavior
- Creating a community of trustworthy businesses and charities
BBB sees trust as a function of two primary factors – integrity and performance. Integrity includes respect, ethics and intent. Performance speaks to a business's track record of delivering results in accordance with BBB standards and/or addressing customer concerns in a timely, satisfactory manner.
Based on the notion that entrepreneurs discover solutions and engage with their communities over a million cups of coffee, the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation developed 1 Million Cups in 2012—a free program designed to educate, engage and inspire entrepreneurs around the country. Through the power of volunteers, 1 Million Cups has grown to more than 180 communities.
Our mission is to help prepare youth for life through fun, proactive and experiential programs infused with life skills, character education, and entrepreneurship. The foremost objective is to help today's youth become the business leaders, social advocates, community volunteers and forward-thinking citizens of tomorrow. We want to build self-esteem and new mindsets that can propel youth to success they likely would not have pursued otherwise.

JOBS! i.d.e.a.WF is ALL about helping to launch new businesses that get the majority of their business from outside of the local area. As this new money flows into the area, these new businesses hire new employees (or use the services of existing businesses in our area, which then have to hire more employees themselves). And these new employees draw salaries, which are being paid with money coming from customers outside of the local area. These salaries grow the entire regional economy.

Office Netiquette: Instant Messaging
By Beverly West Monster Contributing Writer
The use of instant messaging (IM) is on the rise in the workplace, and many experts believe that it will eventually replace email as a corporate communication tool.
Instant messages, or IMs, allow coworkers to exchange information in real time. Yet IMs also present a way for employees to waste time on involved personal conversations. Also, IM technology tends to be insecure and therefore has the potential of leaving corporate networks vulnerable to viruses and hackers. So while most companies are reluctant to eliminate instant messaging altogether, some have also been slow to embrace it — and even slower to develop clear policies about its use or misuse in the workplace.
Instant Messaging Best Practices
Since many companies have yet to formalize their rules of netiquette as it relates to IMs, an unsuspecting employee who uses instant messaging can wind up in hot water. Fortunately, there are some general standards and practices that are beginning to govern the world of instant messaging. Here are some suggestions from admins who regularly use instant messaging at work:
-Use Your "Away" Status Message: "If you just leave your portal open all the time, you can get distracted easily with the constant pop-ups, and it can get very difficult to focus on the tasks at hand," says Jason Bergund, who relies on instant messaging to coordinate complicated activities between a suite of editing bays and their production teams for his job in New York City. "I custom-design my status messages to let people know when I'm busy, at lunch, on a phone call or working on a detailed document – so they know that I'm busy without my having to respond to each and every instant-message query right in the moment."
-Keep It Professional: "Instant messages can get really lengthy, because they offer such an easy way to communicate," says Dana Bilbao, who works in production for a Los Angeles-based entertainment company. "Also, conversations have a tendency to get intimate very quickly, because instant messaging can almost be like talking to yourself." Bilbao restricts her instant-messaging sessions to pertinent information, and she politely bows out when things start to get too personal.
-Avoid Talking About Confidential Information: "When you're instant messaging, always be aware that you're on an unsecured line," says Richie Fusco, an office manager for a securities firm in New York City. "I'm always careful not to discuss confidential or sensitive information over an instant message, because it's just too easy for pirates to hack into old conversation logs. And I always make sure that my virus and spyware protection is up to date."
-Follow Company Policy: "Make sure you know your company's IM policies, if there are any," cautions Bergund. "Many companies, particularly companies in which large numbers of people in different locations have to coordinate their activities, understand that instant messaging is a great interoffice tool. But I've also worked at companies that really frowned on it." Find out if your company has applicable rules and adhere to them. And if a company policy doesn't exist, use common sense, and don't push the envelope.
Quick Guide to Common IM Lingo
- BRB: "be right back"
- BTW: "by the way"
- CYL: "catch you later"
- IMO: "in my opinion"
- LOL: "laugh out loud"
- NP: "no problem"
- TTYL: "talk to you later"
- YT: "you there"

6-Gaps Ride Report, Saturday, June 25, 2005
Ride summary:
· Eight riders from four states.
group ride stats: 111 miles, 10,100 feet of climbing, 17.1mph avg, 4 gaps completed, plus
· Temperature: 94F in the shade. Heat Index: >100F
· One flat, no mechanicals.
memorable quote: "I bet 4 out of 5 doctors would tell you to stay indoors
today." I think Mike said this after climbing 24%
· Moral of the ride: Guys that finish last get the girl!
riders set off on a
Paceline through Brandon after climbing Brandon Gap
Gap begins very steep at the bottom, and then the grade moderates
as vertical is gained. From the top of Middlebury Gap,
So Brett, Jason, Glen, Tom and I paceline
north on Rt 100 to Lincoln Gap.
Heading north on Rt 100 to climb
You can see how oppressively humid it is.
By now
the temperature is into the 90's, and the heat index is over 100. We were all at our thermal limit. We decided
at that point that even four gaps were going to be a challenge. Once you go
down the back side of Lincoln Gap, you have to go over again to get back to the
side the cars are on. Tom, a tall Clydesdale class rider, decided to play it
safe and headed back down Lincoln Gap and to the cars 19 miles down Rt 100.
Top of
descent down the west face of Lincoln Gap is mostly gravel. It was a little
looser this year than last. I still felt ok on it, but everybody else was quite
tentative on the stones. Must be my MTB experience. Jason had to make a couple rim cool down
stops on this descent. There was also a half mile stretch of freshly torn up
pavement (very loose gravel) we had to ride through as we entered
So now we
still have David off the front heading towards App gap, Tom heading back to
cars, and Steven on his own. The rest of us head to App Gap. The heat in
back on our bikes in the sun again, we resumed the App Gap climb. The stream
was near the top of baby gap, so we first had that nice descent before hitting
the sustained steep climb to the top. The top of App Gap is where the finish
line is for the Green Mountain Stage Race (GMSR). The cool down was refreshing,
but very short lived. I almost immediately started hitting my thermal limit.
Brett blasted up to the top. Maybe heat exhaustion caused him to hallucinate in
thinking he was racing to the finish in the GMSR! Most of the way up, we catch
Dip in Stream Beginning Appalachian Gap
The 6 of
us descended App Gap together (the side the GMSR climbs in the prologue TT). I
refueled again with another two 32 oz bottles.
When we
got to the cars, Tom's car was gone – good. Steven's car was still there – not
so good we thought. Brett and Glen took off. After taking a quick dip in the
river right there, Jason and I went back to check on Mike and
We left
Steven there for a few minutes to check on Mike and David, who should have been
back by now. Mike was doing fine and almost back to the cars. David was only a
couple miles behind him, and riding and chatting with a beautiful woman! Go
figure. Turns out she was a sweep for a big organized ride called the L.A.M.B.
ride (
What Steven did was, instead of taking Lincoln Gap after Middlebury like we did, he continued slightly further north on Rt 100 and climbed Roxbury Gap next. He did Roxbury/Rochester Gaps, while we did Lincoln/App Gaps. He did almost as much climbing and mileage as we did, most of it solo, in about the same time! That had to be tough.
When we
left David behind at the bottom of App Gap, he was feeling quite trashed. He
pulled over to a grassy park area, laid back on the grass, and immediately
dozed off. He wasn't sure if 3 minutes or 30 minutes went by, but he was
awakened when a beautiful, fit women was standing above him asked if he was
heading down Rt 100. He was in fact, but she was a
sweep for a different ride. They ended up riding the rest of the way back to
It turns out Mike barely made it back too, for a different reason. He really didn't want to ride alone, and we were reluctant to let him, as he didn't have a pump in case he flatted. We agreed to come back if he didn't make it back shortly after we did. Well, with about 6 miles to go, he flatted. He tried hitchhiking and walking before a cycling group came by with a pump. The flat got fixed, and he was back on the road just before David would have caught up to him. How unlucky is that, of all the rider-miles without a flat, the minute we leave the one rider without a pump he flats? Two lessons learned I guess – carry your own inflators and don't leave a rider alone without an inflator.
Tom made
it back just fine. Feeling like the rest
of us did, he stopped for a dip in the
So that left everybody accounted for. I feel somewhat defeated by this ride, so I might have to try it again later this fall when it is cooler out. Most of us said they enjoyed the ride. David is already talking about next time, and all six gaps, possibly solo! At least two people set PRs for most miles and vertical in a single ride Saturday. Brett called me the next day to say the ride was an Epic. Had I known how hot it was going to get, I would have proposed a date change. The forecasted high went from 78 to 94 in less than a week. I consumed over 300 ounces of fluids during the ride, a lot more in the evening, and still weighed three pounds lighter the next morning. I think most, if not all of us would have completed 6 gaps if it weren't for the heat. Riding only 4 gaps this year was way harder than riding all 6 gaps last year. Our pace was slightly higher too, and factored with the heat didn't help matters.

Leadership Ambassadors
In 2010, it was envisioned that creating Leadership Ambassador (LAs) positions within the College of Pharmacy could generate enthusiasm for leadership development opportunities within the College. LAs work to spread excitement about creating positive change not only within the profession of pharmacy, but within the larger theater of healthcare.
The Leadership Ambassadors are dedicated to empowering pharmacy students at the University of Minnesota to be strong leaders in the profession of pharmacy by:
- making leadership opportunities within the College more visible and
- encouraging students to invest in their own leadership development.

Extensis chose Macworld Expo to announce Portfolio 6, the newest version of its digital-asset management (DAM) solution.
Extensis describes the product as a major upgrade. Joseph Schorr, product manager, said: "Even the most powerful DAM solution will break down if people don't want, and like, to use it. With Portfolio, we've created a system that integrates seamlessly with the creative desktop - a system that people will really want to use. We believe this product will radically change the way people think about asset management."
The product offers a visual user interface, amd includes tools to manage and distribute data. It also supports both Macintosh and Windows operating systems, which means it can be adopted to share assets across networks and platforms. The product also has the capacity to track the movement of its assets – so image or other files moved to other folders or drives remain easy to locate.
DAM system Schoor claimed: "A good DAM system is flexible enough to adapt to the working style of its users - not force them into a rigid, predefined workflow. Our goal with Portfolio 6 was to accommodate the working style of even the most free-spirited creative professional."
Portfolio 6 features the Express Palette, which provides instant access to catalogued files from within any application. Portfolio's asset catalogue can be called up with a single keystroke in order to locate a specific image to place into a document, using drag-&-drop.
Many new features have been introduced into the application, including: the capacity to create Web pages using the Create Web Pages command; the capacity to Collect and Publish, automatically gathering files for CD-distribution; and close integration with email applications to send images as attachments directly from within Portfolio.
Other features include: FolderSync, which links Portfolio catalogues to actual folders on a disk; Instant Cataloguing, which lets a user select any file, folder or disk and instantly catalogue it into the system; Batch renaming and keywording; Auto Move/Copy; and the capacity to rotate an original image using the database thumbnail preview image. The product also imports EXIF data stored in images captured with digital cameras.
The final product will be available for download next month (February). Portfolio 6 will cost $199.95, upgrade pricing varies between $69.95 and $129.95, depending on the previous version number. Portfolio Server, the workgroup version of the product, which ships with five Portfolio 6 licenses, costs $2,499. UK pricing is unavailable at this time. The product works with Mac OS 8.6 or above.

This light assembly produces a wide flood pattern that makes it ideal for illuminating large work spaces and job sites.
Kemp, Texas (PRWEB) February 02, 2017
The WAL-QP26-2XWP60E-50 from Larson Electronics is a quadpod mounted work area light that provides 10,800 lumens of high-intensity LED light for bright illumination of a desired area. This portable light tower has a removable dual light head assembly mounted on top of a four leg aluminum quadpod equipped with wheels for easy positioning from one work space to another. The light head assembly on this tower contains two 60 watt LED emitters that produce 5,400 lumens each. These lamps are independently adjustable, allowing operators to adjust each light for maximum coverage of the work space.
This adjustable and collapsible quadpod can be extended to 26 feet and collapsed to 11 feet. The light assembly on this unit can be removed by releasing the hand knob and sliding the light and mounting bracket off of the center support while the legs can be collapsed, aiding in deployment, storage and transport. Included with this work light is 50 feet of SOOW cord with a 5-15 straight blade plug and is configured to operate on 120 to 277 volts AC. This heavy duty unit is designed for use in inclement conditions and for overall longevity in difficult construction environments with heavy duty aluminum construction and stainless steel hardware for maximum durability. Larson Electronics work lights are designed for industrial, emergency response and military applications, where the operators are working in harsh, destructive environments and require durable, dependable lighting.
"The collapsible design of this quadpod makes portability a breeze," said Rob Bresnahan, CEO of Larson Electronics. "This light assembly produces a wide flood pattern that makes it ideal for illuminating large work spaces and job sites."

What a fun and functional riding shirt! Fit is true to size. Buttons are easy to open and close and there's no weird rubbing from the collar while wearing s hydration pack. Oh, and it goes with every short ever made.
I bought this as a Christmas present for my husband who is an avid mountain biker. He was looking for something that was different. This fit the bill and he is very pleased. Nice print, nice fabric.
I find this shirt perfectly comfortable before, during, and after rides, in terms of both look and fit. I haven't been happy in a tight-fitting cycling jersey for a few years now. I actually I'm a mountain biker, not a racer, and the print of the Dirt Surfer says it in a tasteful, understated way. I've worn it to work on a couple of occasions. On hot days, my sweat evaporates better in this than in a tighter-fitting jerseys, and dries quickly at the end of a ride. I love this shirt so much that I have it in three different colors!
I bought this jersey for a cross continent tour, and wore it for at least half of 3000 km in high heat and humidity. Usually 2-3 days of all day wear between washes, never smelled bad, dried fast, no fade. Snap front allows for one hand adjustment of ventilation. Buttoned up there's little flap (at least at my touring speed). Solid shirts, I'm buying more.
Excellent shirt!
Looks great and fits really well on me. I'm a 5'8" 155 pound racer and the medium size is perfect!
It's super wet and cold in New Hampshire right now so I've actually been wearing it while training indoors. I've found it to be cooler and more comfortable than the kit shirts I normally use.
Planning to order the charcoal color Dirt Surfer next.

You will need... paper, scissors, glue and an insatiable urge to do something creative. Don't worry about the ironing - it's not going anywhere...
Friday, 24 June 2011
Thank god it's come back!!!!
My mojo that is!
I've really been struggling creatively over the last 2 weeks. I can only put it down to a bit of post viral something or other. It's affected me at work too which is not good but, luckily things haven't been too pressured of late (that's maybe not so good!). You know when you can't concentrate, things just don't seem to work out right creatively speaking and I for one find myself going round and round in circles and going nowhere fast. The remedy for me and many others who find themselves a bit stuck is to have a browse around the old t'internet and just don't give yourself a hard time. So, while noseying around I joined a new scrapbooking forum - Scrapbook.com and wowser - so many really talented scrappers/crafters there I couldn't not be inspired. While I was mooching around the gallery I noticed a lady had put together a LO using the free papers from the latest scrapbook magazine and it looked really colourful and fun. Light bulb moment!!!! I rushed over to my crafting corner and got stuck in. Here's what I came up with. I really love these papers. They are by Nikki Sivils and are kitschy and retro and make you feel happy inside when you play with them. Wonder if I should get some more...
Have fun this weekend!

Hi Jak!ReplyDelete
Horray! I'm finally back in the land of blogging. I've had lots of problems with leaving comments and updating my blog, but today I have managed to do both :)
Your layout is wonderful, such fun!
I totally know what you mean about your mojo, but someone told me about a wonderful website called Pinterest, OMG!!! I'm toally hooked!
Jak, it is wonderful, and a great source of crafty inspiration, I promise you, you'll love it!!! Take a peek if you get time and request an invite. You can type in anything such as mini albums, and there are loads that come back, and you just pin the ones you like, bit like a mood board? Take a peek, and you'll see what I mean. I've just make loads of paper roses, pics in my blog, and the inspiration and idea came from there :)

and this was one of my favorite videos ever:
SNOW WHITE!!! This Snow White Make-Up Tutorial is my favorite!
and also, here's the Snow White Hair Tutorial! I couldn't find a good wig for SNOW WHITE, so I just did the hair myself!
We are all princesses on the inside…now you can have fun dressing up as one on the outside!
I love Disneyland…and pretty much all old Disney movies…. Snow White is so delicate, gentle, and adorable….I loved..LOVED…LOVED doing this make-up look!Even the hair was fun to do!
I just wanted to go live in Disneyland or one of the enchanted lands~
I researched the art and painting of Disney…they mixed and created their own colors! The look of the original Snow White: And the Seven Dwarfs, was soft with, bright lips and grey-brown eyeshadow…I tried to replicate it exactly as the art from the movie.
I hope you guys like it..I think this was my favorite look and favorite video so far!
For the make-up…I used:
a very light foundation (any brand will do)
concealer wheel by LISE WATIER (i got mine at www.naimies.com)
a light powder (any brand. I used La Mer pressed powder)
For the EYES, I used,
a light shimmery yellow color….(Rice Paper from MAC)
a dark grey shadow …(PRINT from MAC)
a grey-brown…(COPPERPLATE from MAC)
a warm chocolatey brown (CORK from MAC)
A black liquid or cream liner (any brands)
RED lips!!! ( any bright blue-red lipstick)
I used a bright red lip liner (Cherry from MAC)
I used RUBY WOO from MAC
and any red gloss if you want some added dazzle!
FOR the hair, you just need: bobby pins, hair spray, a brush, and 2 curling irons – 1 small one and one larger…
I got my snow white costume at Spirit…click here for the link…

1. Please describe your current position.
I am an Associate Consultant with IMS Consulting Group in New York City. IMSCG is a healthcare/life-science focused management consulting firm that advises pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies on pricing, market access, branding and commercialization strategies. Our clients range from big pharmaceutical and biotech companies to high-growth start-ups. My primary responsibilities encompass conducting primary and secondary market research to come up with actionable insights and strategies for solving our client's problems.
2. How far in advance of your planned starting date did you begin looking for jobs?
1.5 years
3. How did you learn about your current position?
I went to a career panel in my school on management consulting. I talked to the consultants who came there to volunteer their time, and I decided that it would be a really good fit for me.
4. Were any resources (inside or outside your university) particularly helpful in your job search?
Friends of mine started a student-run management consulting organization called Fourth River Solutions, in Pittsburgh. I worked with the organization for over a year on pro-bono consulting projects with clients in the Pennsylvania/Ohio area. This opportunity honed my critical thinking skills and I learned how to break down complex real-world problems into simpler parts and solve them.
5. What was your work or educational background before you were hired?
I got my PhD in Molecular Biology from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, and prior to that I went to Sastra University in India for a BS in chemical engineering. I completed the CFA investment certificate program while I was in graduate school to learn more about finance. I also took certificate courses on commercialization of science offered through the school of engineering at Pitt.
6. Which aspects of your background (doctoral training, postdoctoral training, internships, etc.) were required for your position?
My consulting and internship experiences helped me get the job. Doctoral training prepared me to quickly skim through scientific literature and understand the key-takeaways, and this helps me do my job effectively.
7. How long after your interview did you start your position?
Three months. I was interning in a Mergers and Acquisitions firm before I took this position. In general, most management consulting firms hire exclusively in fall, and some recruit in spring as well. It is important to keep track of these two hiring cycles if you want to avoid delays in starting your position.
8. How would you describe the interview process and how did you prepare for it? Were there any skills or experiences in your CV that seemed to stand out?
Interview Process:
There are two components to any consulting firm's interview:
1. Personal experience/Behavioral interview:
a. Prepare three to five personal stories around your leadership capabilities, times when you faced conflicts in a workplace, your team-work experience, and how you dealt with failures
2. Case Interview
a. Go to YouTube/Google and search "case interviews" to get an idea about case interviews
b. Masterthecase.com hosts several business school case-books; find a case-study partner and practice these cases
c. Learn to do back of the envelope calculations and quick math, it will save you time in your interview
Resume tips:
• Consultants like to see evidence to any claim; so try and quantify any real world impact you may have had through your past experiences
• Limit your resume to one page
• McKinsey & Co's website lists things they would expect to see in an advanced degree candidate's profile, make sure to mirror them in your resume while applying for consulting opportunities
• Oystir is a HR start-up run by ex-consultants and they do a really awesome job of reviewing consulting resumes
9. Did you pursue any other position or career path prior to being hired in your current position? If so, what factors led to your ultimate job choice?
I was a postdoc in the lab I did my thesis in for one month before starting an internship with a Mergers and Acquisitions firm. I joined my current position right after my 10-week internship.
10. Has your career trajectory followed the path you had expected when you started graduate school?
No, but I am glad I had an open mind. It is important to try out new career paths while you are in graduate school to see which ones would be a good fit.
11. Are there any particular skills or experiences you wish you had before you started?
I wish I knew more about the healthcare system in the U.S.
12. How do you spend an average workday?
On any given day, I may be working on a project proposal, or conducting primary or secondary market research for the project I work on. My work also involves building financial forecasts and Excel modeling. I spend close to 90% of my time focusing on project deliverables and this is my billable time. The rest of the time, I try to contribute to internal initiatives within the firm.
13. What do you like the most about your work?
Every project is different from the other, and I get to work with really smart and talented people. There is immediate real-world impact for every project, and the learning curve with every project is very steep. Average length of projects is eight to ten weeks, and this gives you an opportunity to gain expertise across different aspects of the healthcare and life science industry.
14. What do you find the most challenging about your work?
Work-life balance
15. What skills do you think are absolutely essential for your position?
• Critical thinking
• Soft skills
• Time-management
• Resourcefulness
16. Do you think it helps to have a certain personality to do the work you do?
It definitely helps if you are analytical and amiable if you want to succeed in consulting. You should be able to get along with clients and co-workers, at the same time have analytical rigor to solve complex problems.
17. At any point, do you regret not having pursued a career in the academic field?
I miss the bench at-times. But as a part of my job I read a lot more scientific literature on a daily basis, and I keep up with changing trends in different therapeutic areas.
18. What advice would you give to someone looking for a position like yours?
• Practice, practice and practice case studies—it is the most important part of the interview process
• Join a consulting club and network with other people who are focused on pursuing consulting for a career
• Participate in case-competitions—most of these events are sponsored by top firms, and you can gain visibility just by participating
• Always have a well thought out one-minute pitch of the work you are currently doing
• Don't give up if you fail in a few interviews—Getting into consulting requires both persistence and presence of mind during the interview

ESRI User Conference 2018 – Day 1
Day 1 at the User Conference was dominated by the Plenary talks of ESRI Owner Jack Dangermond and others. The morning plenary by Mr. Dangermond and other ESRI Staff is where they highlight the newest technology that we now have access to from ESRI. In the past I have heard of the User Conference as the "Show" and it continues to live up to that name. This year they highlighted the new machine learning and AI tools that have been integrated into ArcGIS and the new capabilities of ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Portal, and ArcGIS Pro. Over the coming days I hope to highlight these technologies and more in greater detail.

"And Jesus said unto him, No man having put his hand to the plow and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God".
Several had come to Jesus filled with good intentions desiring to follow Him wherever He went. Today this would be considered a successful evangelical outreach program but the Lord did not regard it as such. He answered the first young zealot of a scribe, who was more interested in venerated places and holy relics than the truth, by saying that the Son of man had no place here in this world to call His own. The animals in the wild had a more sure abode than the Creator of the universe in this world because His Kingdom is not of this world. There is no building that can hold Him, no people that can properly serve Him and no land that is suitable for Him to find rest. His building is His body, His people are born from above of the incorruptible seed and, having finished His work, He is seated at the right hand of the Father having entered into His rest. He knew the intention of the heart of the would-be follower and His answer dissuaded him from his quest. His intentions were earthly and his affections were not set on the things from above.
The second individual is contacted by Jesus with a command to "follow me" but he answered the Lord that he had other pressing engagements that precluded him from following. It was not that he did not want to follow Jesus or that he was offended by the work, it was that the love of family, society and inheritance was more important to him that the abandonment of the things of this world. His heart was drawn out after the prestige and comforts of life rather than the simplicity and privation of following the Master. Jesus answered him with a stern rebuke for his intentions, his family and the business of man are for and must be attended to by those who have not the life from above. He commanded this unknown person to preach (be a messenger for) the foolishness of the gospel of the kingdom of God and leave those things of this present evil generation to the children of the world. Those who are dead, having no knowledge of the truth, no part in the inheritance of light and no memorial of the finished work, need attend to the matters of the dead as the "children of this world are, in their generation, wiser than the children of light" (Luke 16:8). The children of the kingdom of this world are the subjects of the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now works in the children of disobedience, and they have been assigned the tasks of this world, wherein they find sustenance and contentment.
Those who walk by the faith of the Son of God are strangers and sojourners in a weary land wherein they find no peace, nothing to satiate their souls and no resting place. Despite all carnal logic and tangible reasoning, they find a hope in things unseen that is manifested to them by faith. Even when the allurement of this world and the needs of the flesh ensnare them and they are drawn away after the lusts of the flesh, they yet know that they are not of the indigenous people of the land for their affections have been set on things from above. This young man was commanded of the Lord to leave what he desired and do what seemed simplistic, foolish and unpopular. If this be true, then why are today's religious endeavours so popular, so convoluted and profitable?
The third individual had a desire to follow Christ and, although he was not interested in his earthly inheritance, he did place great importance on going to his own house, renouncing the things of his life and removing himself from his family and friends. This is comparable to Jehu calling out to others to 'come see my zeal for the Lord'. It is a public statement of identification of piety and commitment. His desire was to go and let everyone know that he was abandoning them, their ways and unbelief and that he was following Jesus. How righteous this is, to announce that, 'I am holier than you and I have put off the former ways of life and have decided to follow Jesus'. But rather than embracing this wonderfully enthusiastically worker, Jesus rebukes him and condemns his manner.
If the time of year were upon us in the days gone by and we observed a farmer in the field, readying to plow the ground and plant his crops but he had no horse, oxen or mule before him to draw the plow, we would shake our heads in disbelief as to the success of his endeavours. If he had no plow we would think him unprepared as he wasted the time walking behind his animal without the proper tools. These things may be quickly rectified and the project engaged. But if we observed the horse, the plow and the farmer, ready to plow, we should be able to assume that the job shall be at least undertaken and have good cause to anticipate the results. But what if the farmer was facing the wrong way? What a sight it would be if the farmer was walking and pulling with all of his might, in opposition to the direction of the plow and in conflict to the power of the animal before him. This foolish individual would be scorned and laughed at being unfit for the job. He does not know what he is doing, he knows nothing of the mechanics of the job at hand and he is well convinced that his way is the correct way of performing the task before him. He anticipates success and is completely at ease with his work ethics. And thus Jesus says to this person who desires to follow him, if you take hold of the plow and are facing the wrong way, fighting against the power and ignorant to the job, you are not suited for the job.
Is this a completely hypothetical statement by Jesus or is this a very real and ever present condition? Jesus was instructing His disciples as they journeyed toward Jerusalem for His crucifixion, that when they see such a thing they will recognize the person and the work being attempted. If one is in any way, shape or form, going or attempting to go contrary to the simplicity of the gospel, wherein they introduce their own power, their own ways and their own zeal for the Lord, the conclusion must be that they have not been appointed thereunto. If any man preach another gospel than that which was once delivered to the saints, if he has a new and better idea about how to facilitate the will of God or if he scoffs at the old landmarks of the immutability of a sovereign God then he is unfit for the kingdom. It is not that he is unfit for that job and another position must be found for him, for this one is not been outfitted for the kingdom of God. He has not been afore prepared unto the glory of the kingdom, he has not the Spirit of God within him, causing him to walk according to the statutes of God, therefore he is none of His.
Only a child of the King has the regal rights of the kingdom. The fist born of the King stands as the heir of the throne and the next ruler of the kingdom. He is trained in the art of politics, diplomacy and is well schooled in the policies of his father, the King. No one may usurp this position and no one is entitled to the throne but the legal heir. So the Son of God is the heir of God and of His Kingdom. He is the firstborn of many brethren who stand as heirs of God and joint heirs with Him being of the house of the first born. These only have the Spirit of God within whereby they know the mind of God, understand His will and walk according to His statutes. They are the only proper ambassadors of the good tidings of great joy of the Kingdom of God.
Now does this mean that when one has taken the plow in hand and is looking forward he is to be considered 'worthy' of the kingdom? Not at all. It means that when one, who has been ordained of old, has been given to take the plow in hand and is made willing in the day of His power to be committed to the work before him, it is because he has been accounted worthy (well placed) of the kingdom. The work does not endear one as being worthy, God has afore prepared, outfitted, assigned and engaged only those who are worthy of His kingdom in the work of the kingdom. Only those who have been joined unto Him from before the foundation of the world, set apart for the work that He has assigned, consecrated to the work of the sanctuary, adorned with the garments of salvation and anointed with the Holy Spirit, having been made acceptable in the Beloved are worthy of the kingdom of God. These have been assigned a path to walk and a race to run by Jehovah our God and the steps of that path are ordered of old and the race is run with patience. God has designed an earthen vessel that is suitable for the course to be traveled, He has properly equipped this tabernacle of clay with all necessary components, revealed at the appropriate time to accommodate the tasks to be performed and He has, in the appointed time, empowered this vessel to act commensurate to His will for the good of the seed born from above.
He has filled His children with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding that they might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God (Col. 1:9f). He has properly assigned each of His children a time of habitation and has lovingly placed limitations about them, hedging in their way with hewn stones. This is not for men to see or for the admiration of the people of the land or the inhabitants of this world. To them the preaching of an Almighty Sovereign God who does whatsoever His heart desires, manifesting His eternal love for His chosen people and His just hatred for the wicked, is complete an utter foolishness and those engaged in such things are equally as foolish. Some have openly despised the good news and have discarded it as inappropriate for their cause while others feel that it needs just a little help from the logic and intuition of Adam to make it work. One may look at the plow and the field and walk on by seeking more prestigious employment while another may take to the plow, facing to the rear, thinking himself profitable to the work of God.
Every child of grace while in the tabernacle of this dwelling, looks forward to the time when, with untrammeled eyes, they behold the glory of God. They hope to hear Him say "well done thou good and faithful servant, enter into the rest prepared for you" but thoughts, desires and actions betray them here and now. When the lust of the flesh is empowered to conceive and bring forth the sin that dwells in the members, there can be no other conclusion but that this one is not born from above. When the allurement of this world is made so enticing that they are drawn to it like a dog unto the vomit, they groan in the agony of failure and embarrassment anxiously hoping that their fellow travelers never learn of their true nature. But this is the way of all who have the warfare within. These have been accounted worthy of the Father to suffer not only the hatred of the world but the vanity of the flesh unto the day of His coming. They are worthy of the hire that He has assigned unto them and walk worthy of this vocation in all meekness and long-suffering because He has so ordained that they be conformed to the image of His Son.. The manifest token of their being worthy is that they suffer for His name sake, not after the nature of Adam, but because they are strangers and sojourners in a foreign land and dwell in the midst of an evil generation.
When John was in the Spirit on the Lord's Day, he saw in heaven that the books were brought forth and NO MAN was worthy to open, read or to look upon them. As he wept, the messenger of Jehovah told him that there was ONE who was worthy, not because of what He had done but because of who He was. The Lamb was worthy and therefore He not only opened the books and read them but He stood as He had been slain from before the foundation of the world. Since He was worthy of more glory that His servant Moses and since He is the Federal head of His people, they also stand worthy being sons of God. They have the same glory that He has with the Father as they stand as joint heirs with the Son of the kingdom of God.
Brethren rest assured that the Church of Jesus Christ, His body, His temple, His Bride has been built upon Himself, that Rock of all ages and all His people, shall come from afar and build in the temple (Zech. 6:12-15). There shall never be one building in the temple of Jehovah who is not properly placed there and perfectly performing the station assigned unto them and there shall never remain a work undone. Each one of His people has a certain and specific place in the body, that Holy habitation of Jehovah being fitly framed together wherein the walls are salvation and built of living stones. Each one has been given all things necessary during the time of this habitation to complete each and every good work they have been afore ordained to and created in Christ Jesus unto. None shall fail to perfectly finish the works that have been finished from the foundation of the world and none shall have the praise of man for Adam cannot see the things of the Kingdom. There shall never be any flesh and blood in the Kingdom for this is not the inheritance of Adam and this Kingdom is not of this world (and never shall be).
Therefore, weary brethren, run with patience the race that is set before you, looking unto Jesus the author and FINISHER of our faith. The labourer is worthy of his hire for it is God that works in His elect both to will and do His good pleasure and He, that has begun this good work, shall perform it unto the day of our Lord.
Your servant in Christ,
(Elder) Chet Dirkes
