President Obama spoke of jobs in the State of the Union Address, again. Let's hope it is more than just talk this time.
There are about 23 million out of jobs. Uncounted numbers of people so discouraged, they have given up looking . These folks are not counted by the government, making the administration look better on job creation than it really is doing. The president likes to say government creates jobs; it does not. What it does do is create a financial burden on all taxpayers.
More people employed, means more tax revenue in the treasury, means we pay our country's bills.
Before I retired I was employed and honestly, not too enthused. It did give me a place to be, a boss who told me what time I was to be there, and it did give me something to do. I got a paycheck, also. That paycheck allowed me to pay bills, buy things I wanted, and the freedom to go where I wanted. Much to be said about a paycheck. Working? Not so much. More people need to experience this kind of freedom.
The United States needs a vibrant economy - jobs, jobs, jobs. Presidential jawboning won't cut the mustard.

IT's all about the implementation, but the "monk" class has existed in D&D and the rest of the genre since before 90% of you were born. I'm betting on a new race (or races).
How about a starting area where you CHOOSE your faction, an act which then BRANDS you in a distinguishable way. Then they would only need to add ONE race.
And a "monk" class with cool unarmed moves and eastern tradition spells. If they are going down this path, they will have something akin to a "ninja" as an opportunity and I think it would make for a great ex-pac. For all the QQing, Blizz still does it better than anyone else.
I personally like the idea of a possible monk class (perhaps as a hero class). So lets try to do some blue-sky thinking and see how such a class would work -as that would be core to it's inclusion.
First things first - they will be cloth wearers, but without the ability to wield weapons. The fact that tey need their hands to fight also rules out shields, and held-in-off-hand items.
But they are also unlike any other cloth-classes a melee class. Obvious core stat: agility. Secondary is probably strength. Ultimately though - you can only absorb so much damage through cloth, so to even survive they would have to have massive avoidance.
This suggests they would be either melee DPS or because they have to stack avoidance they would almost certainly be able to tank as well. Even in DPS form their lack of armor suggests a high level of avoidance needed, they rely entirely on parry and dodge remember to prevent being one-shotted remember and they don't have a rogue's vanish to get them out of trouble or their knack for hitting from behind.
With enough avoidance - you get a character who can take on multiple mobs (in line with the monk concept) - again good for a tanking class or melee DPS.
So what does that imply ?
1) We need a whole new selection of gear. Cloth with stats for melee fighters. Avoidance, dodge and agility are crucial. Stamina is very important -but that's present on practically every item anyway.
First question: how would a melee DPS and a tank's stats differ ? This is the first concept class where melee DPS would have to stack high levels of avoidance. Does that rule out the possibility of a DPS monk and consign them tanking only ?
Presumably the DPS would need to up his attack power, which is one stat difference, but that's mostly derived from agility these days - just like dodge rating so it won't really give them a major difference in gear.
Perhaps they could tank or DPS in the same gear ? Or perhaps a tank would want higher armor levels in their cloth ? (We can assume the tank would have more hits he cannot dodge than the DPS who isn't actively targeted after-all)
2) How would the specs differ ? I doubt we'll suddenly see a class with only one or two talent trees - so what specs could our monk have ? Sure DPS classes have three variations on the same core tool, but it's interesting that there is no pure healer or pure tanking class - all classes that can tank or heal also have the option for at LEAST a DPS offspec.
So what would our monk have ? Well healing isn't entirely out of line for a monk - so perhaps heal/tank/DPS specs ?
But now they are very close to pallys (also druids but not quite as close) in fact they are now nothing but cloth-wearing un-armed pallys.
3) Losing weapon slots is a major issue for itemization balance. All other classes get a lot of their stats from weapon slots. So either these new cloth items would have to be significantly boosted to make up for the gap or they'd need something else to replace those slots. The first option is tricky, cloth with that much strenth/agi (likely to be the core stats) may actually be strong enough for rogues to outweigh their leather-specialization bonus... and we're right back to a problem cataclysm supposedly wanted to fix.
The second option raises the question of "but what then ?" perhaps they could have two extra ring slots ? We get one ring on each hand in game (Which is odd as most races don't have just one finger) perhaps they could get two rings per hand ? That gives them the same number of slots as any dual-wielding DPS class, and it rules out the item-competition issue. All classes can wear all rings right now, which ones you DO wear is determined by stats. If a strength+agi ring drops then rogues and bears and warriors and ret-pallys will all roll, that's clearly not an issue for blizzard, what's the problem with having one more class rolling ? After all the same is true for every other major stat set. All the cloth casters will roll on stam+int rings now, and all the healers will roll on any ring with spirit.
So we can start to form a picture of such a class just by thinking from how classes work, into what the goal of the class would be... so if we can get this far - then surely blizzard can get much further.
And having done this massive tin-foil-hat post... now I DEMAND MY MONK HERO class.
There's of course, another catch. A hero-class is not a race, DK's could be any race, they got a distinctive look alteration but they were still a class and not a race.
So while the monk skill could come from the pandaren... it won't make your player look like a panda (I can't think of a single not-horrible reason why monks should shapeshift into pandas ... it would be way too much like druids AND worgen and get old FAST).
So as a class, it relegates the pandaren to NPC's, but important ones as a whole new range of adventurers are now travelling to pandaria to learn their ancient unarmed fighting style. Much like any DK didn't go through the usual race starting zone but got their own, I can see us spending 10 levels of monk starting in a pandaren temple.
Of course, for a long time only one race on each faction could be druids and only one horde race could be pallys so limiting monk to a pandaren race is possible, but it would have to be balanced. There has to be a way both factions have at least ONE option to get into it.
A neutral race has been suggested but I must admit out of everything so far speculated, that sounds to me the least likely. It messes with way too many things n pvp.

Welcome to Bernie's Place Restaurant and Buffet! As South Thailand Restaurants, or any Krabi Restaurant goes, This is the Best!
Bernie established this Krabi restaurant with buffet, bar, and guesthouse back in 1998 after 6 years of backpacking around the world, and a career as a waiter and chef in his homeland Denmark. As South Thailand Restaurants go, this is a well established and popular restaurant.
We're located 80 meters from Ao Nang's popular beach, with all local amenities, and boats to the surrounding islands.
Back in 1998 Ao Nang, Krabi, in South Thailand, was little more than a small village, with few tourists, no airport, and little to do. Bernie's vision was for a South Thailand Restaurant catering for the early pioneers of Ao Nang, who required cheap rooms, and good social scene, hearty food, and a beer for the road
Over the years, Ao Nang has changed into a major tourist destination with an international airport, and tourists from around the Globe. But the place still remains, with a wondrous charm and atmosphere for every kind of person.
The limestone cliffs and Karsts that sprout out from the waters are simply breathtaking. Beaches are glorious, although not all. Local amenities include island trips, diving, snorkeling, fishing, Thai Boxing, kayaking, and world famous rock climbing. Or you can while away your time on the beaches, relaxing with a Thai massage. With the area's constant change, Bernie has developed his business using all his vast knowledge and understanding of what Tourists and travellers require, into the improvements and operation of Bernies Place, keeping it ahead of the competition. So of all Krabi restaurants, or even South Thailand restaurants, this place which offers a great value buffet every day, surely ranks among the best value restaurants in South Thailand. These days Bernie still keeps his rooms for budget travelers, but the extended restaurant has now become the largest Krabi buffet restaurant, with a testimonial in the famous "Lonely Planet" guide book, and thousands of satisfied diners over the years.

It's like we've hit the fashion jackpot when we find garments that are luxuriously soft, adequately warm, stylish, eco-friendly and light enough to be worn all year-round. Well, no need to rely on luck or chance because fulfilling our fashion fantasies is Alpaca wool.
Alpacas belong to the camelid species, close relatives of the llama, and found in the regions of the Andes Mountains. The wool is used to make clothing that wonderfully protects against the chilling climates of the Andean mountains. For centuries, Alpaca fur was considered the fabric of royalty because of its luxurious softness and durability. Although a fabric staple in Peru, Chile, Ecuador and other South American cultures, Alpaca wool has now been embraced by indie and high-end designers and has led to a triumphant fusions of fashion and function. In the recent months, Alpaca wool has graced the London and New York runways with its traditional and contemporary edge.
Fashion designers and connoisseurs opt for Alpaca fur due to the superior qualities it has over sheep's wool. With its durable, hollow core that traps little pockets of air, Alpaca produces softer, silk-like strands that act as insulators against both cold and heat. These air pockets also allows for the fabric's breathability, keeping you cool even during the summer. Alpaca fibers create an extremely light, fine, warm and cashmere-like texture that feels wonderful on the skin.
Mother Nature is definitely also cheerful about Alpaca because of the many sustainable practices being used for the eco-friendly fabric production of the natural fiber. No mechanical or chemical processing is used during the crafting and construction of Alpaca garments. Unlike sheep wool that produces prickles on the skin because of its coarse fibers, Alpaca fur has a much smoother shaft and does not contain lanolin. Alpaca is naturally hypo-allergenic.
Alpaca clothing is the perfect fashion accessory that you can easily pack and wear for a simple, night out of town or a thrilling ski session up the mountains. Classic and trendy scarves, wraps, gloves, blankets, throws…you'll find them all at Shupaca.com!

Editor's note: This story was originally published in May 2012 and was updated in June 2013.
(CNN) -- The Supreme Court earlier this year gave proponents of same-sex marriage two major victories -- striking down parts of the Defense of Marriage Act that denied the same benefits provided to heterosexual spouses to legally married same-sex couples, and allowing same-sex marriages to resume in California.
Here's a look at same-sex marriage in the United States, by the numbers:
36 -- The number of U.S. states that have banned same-sex marriage, either through legislation or constitutional provisions.
6 -- The number of U.S. states that allow civil unions between same-sex couples, but not marriage: Colorado, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, New Jersey and Rhode Island. This number will go down to four this summer after Delaware's new marriage laws take effect in July and the Rhode Island laws do on August 1. (Some states that allow civil unions also ban same-sex marriage.)
12 -- The number of U.S. states that allow same-sex marriage, along with the District of Columbia: Connecticut, Delaware, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Washington.
1,138 -- The number of federal benefits to marriage.
30.25% -- The approximate percentage of the U.S. population affected by Wednesday's Supreme Court rulings after same-sex marriage laws take effect in Delaware (on July 1, 2013) and Minnesota and Rhode Island (on August 1, 2013).
2001 -- The year the Netherlands made same-sex marriage legal. It was the first country in the world to so.
2003 -- The year that the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that it is unconstitutional to criminalize sodomy.
2004 -- The year that same-sex marriage became legal in Massachusetts, the first U.S. state to do so.
14 -- The number of countries worldwide where same-sex marriage is legal in the entire country. They are: Argentina, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Iceland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, and Uruguay.
3 -- The number of countries where same-sex marriage is legal in some areas: Brazil, Mexico and the United States.
27% -- The percentage of Americans who thought same-sex marriage should be legal in 1996, according to a May Gallup Poll.
53% -- The percentage of Americans who think it should be legal in 2013, according to the same poll.
3.5% -- The approximate percentage of Americans identifying as lesbian, gay or bisexual, according to 2011 research by the Williams Institute at UCLA.
646,000 -- The number of same-sex-couple households in the United States in 2010, according to the Census Bureau.
80.4% -- The percentage growth of same-sex couple households in the U.S. between 2000 and 2010, according to the Census Bureau.
10% -- The percentage of people identifying as LGBT living in the District of Columbia, according to a 2012 Gallup Poll. This is the highest percentage in the country.
1.7% -- The percentage of people identifying as LGBT living in North Dakota, according to a 2012 Gallup Poll. This is the lowest percentage in the country.
115,064 -- Number of same-sex couple households in the United States with children, according to the Census Bureau.

Ellie Velinska is a naturalized American citizen. Lives in North Carolina and is registered as a non-affiliated voter. Finished high school in the USSR and has Masters Degree in Psychology from Sofia University, Bulgaria. In 2000 Ellie and her husband moved to America after winning the Green Card Lottery. The New Media is a perfect challenge and quite convenient for her now that she is a mother of two boys.
You can visit her family photo blog here.
Ellie strongly believes that the Americans have been Taxed Enough Already and big bureaucracies should not be rewarded with a single extra dime of our money. US Congress should be put on a "no pork" diet.
She also believes the environment should be clean and wishes for global warming during the winter and for global cooling during the summer. The scientific data should be examined with skepticism, because "enough research will tend to support whatever theory". Every solution breeds new problems and should be advertised with caution.
Ellie quit smoking in 2008 which gave her too much extra time she did not have before. So she decided to work to bring attention to the problems of bureaucracy as she stumbles upon them.
Favorite quotes about bureaucracy:
In any bureaucracy, the people devoted to the benefit of the bureaucracy itself always get in control and those dedicated to the goals the bureaucracy is supposed to accomplish have less and less influence, and sometimes are eliminated entirely.
-Jerry Eugene Pournelle
The Law of Triviality: the time spent on any item of the agenda will be in inverse proportion to the sum involved.
- Cyril Northcote Parkinson
If you are not free to choose wrongly and irresponsibly, you are not free at all.
-Jacob Hornberger
The more corrupt the state, the more it legislates.
When buying and selling are controlled by legislation, the first things to be bought and sold are legislators.
-P.J. O'Rourke
A government that is big enough to give you all you want is big enough to take it all away.
-Barry Goldwater
Just because you do not take an interest in politics doesn't mean politics won't take an interest in you.
-Pericles (430 B.C.)
The best government is the one that charges you the least blackmail for leaving you alone.
-Thomas Rudman-Brown
It is much more important to kill bad bills than to pass good ones.
-Calvin Coolidge

The PJ O'Rourke quote is so true! I thing that many of us born in the USA really do not appreciate the system we have, it is merely assumed. Your perspective is important as you understand a lack of freedom from where you have been. You appreciate this country because of the opportunity as well as its freedom.
Many people do not mind paying taxes, but want to see true value for those. Alas, governments don't produce anything, so costs and value are alien to their mindset. the treasure of this country is the freedom of speech, the right to hold and speak as you see fit. America needs more of you!
I like your writing, your blog and for what it's worth, indorse your opinions
Dear Ellie,
Bravo! Bravo! Wonderful use of your time.
Welcome to the land of the free because of the brave.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and pictures! I share your sentiments on climate change.
Great hope for Alex, too!
Born here and love it!
People have not been "Taxed Enough Already". They've been paid too little.
As I describe at "Data on Income & Tax Distributions" http://www.exponentialimprovement.com/cms/wealthhappens.shtml#inc&taxdist/, "conservative" policies have been very effective at depressing wages. That's the problem. Compensation has not kept pace with productivity. In 2004 compensation would have been 68% higher had compensation growth kept up with productivity growth.
So-called "conservative" economic policies have put the path dependence dynamic on steroids as I describe at the link above.
The U.S. economy is in trouble because the depressed wages increased borrowing, which is now over as so many have lost their jobs and given the Fed-created housing bubble has burst. Consumer demand has collapsed and there will be no investment in the absence of demand no matter how much taxes are reduced for corporations and the wealthy.
This must be reversed. Some say federal wages should be lowered as they have not been similarly depressed by "conservative" manipulation. The "conservative" "command & control" of the economy must stop in order that private wages increase.
On "command & control", see "Why Fed policy is biased and manipulative" at http://www.exponentialimprovement.com/cms/consdia.shtml#10/.
What's more "Climate Change" is real: "Global Warming: An Inconvenient-to-Understand Truth" http://www.exponentialimprovement.com/cms/cloudyskies.shtml/.
Can't recall how I found you now.. seems it was a comment about something political (I know, go figure!). Anyway, I want you to know I follow you on Twitter and enjoy your viewpoint and fresh eyes/mind on just about everything I have seen from you.
Thank you for taking time away from your family to provide a much needed fresh perspective to so many issues.
In somewhat the same vein: The right to vote comes with many summons to jury duty. So, for a while there, I was getting summons about twice a year. Never mind that I am hearing impaired and (with or without hearing aids) depend on "reading" lips and body language to comprehend what I'm hearing. So, it was a great waste of my time and effort to respond to the summons. I got fed up. The last time I had to appear for voir dire, I requested a conference with the judge. So, before voir dire began, the judge gave me 5 minutes in the courtroom to "speak my piece". He then had my name removed from all of the different records from which jury duty candidates are selected. Democracy at work!
You made some really good points there. I
looked on the internet for more information about the
issue and found most individuals will go along with your views on this website.

Global Trends Favor New Surface Pro
Maxwell is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) has unveiled the Surface Pro, the latest addition to the company's line of tablets. The Surface Pro comes with Windows 8 Pro, which is very useful to businesses that want the power of a personal computer PC in a tablet. Below, I will explain how the global trends in the tablet market will support strong sales of the Surface Pro. Specifically, I will examine the effects of rising tablet sales around the world and the shifting preferences of consumers shopping for tablets. I will show how increased demand for tablets worldwide will help Microsoft sell more tablets, which will increase the company's long-term value on a discounted cash flow basis.
Global Demand
The demand for tablets is rising worldwide. According to International Data Corporation's (IDC) Worldwide Quarterly PC tracker, tablet sales increased by 75.3% in the fourth quarter of 2012, with shipments growing to 52.5 million, up from 29.9 million in the same period of 2011. Tablet sales were driven primarily by the increase in choice of products. Due to the rising demand and strong prospect for growth, IDC was forced to increase its market forecast for 2012 to 117.1 million units, up from its previous forecast of 107.4 million units. IDC upgraded its 2013 forecast from 142.8 million units to 165.9 million units, also stating that tablet shipments may hit 261.4 million units by 2016.
Top 5 Vendors, Worldwide Tablet Shipments, Fourth Quarter 2012 (Preliminary) (Units Shipments are in millions)
Source: IDC Worldwide Quarterly Tablet Tracker, January 31, 2013 (preliminary data)
The chart above shows IDC's research results in fourth quarter 2012 on worldwide shipment sales. The figures included number of shipment for the top five vendors and others. All vendors made 52.5 million shipments, up from 29.9 million in 2011. Even though Microsoft didn't make the top 5 vendors, it's just entering the market. If it works to bring down its prices, it will become competitive in the new year.
"We expected a very strong fourth quarter, and the market didn't disappoint," said Tom Mainelli, research director, Tablets, at IDC. "New product launches from the category's top vendors, as well as new entrant Microsoft, led to a surge in consumer interest and very robust shipments totals during the holiday season."
Microsoft announced record first quarter revenue of $17.37 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2011, a 7% increase from the same period of the prior year. Operating income, net income, and diluted earnings per share for the quarter were $7.20 billion, $5.74 billion, and $0.68 per share, which represented increases of 1%, 6%, and 10%, respectively, when compared with the prior year period. However, figures for Surface weren't reflected, having not been launched.
Microsoft announced quarterly revenue of $21.46 billion for the quarter ended December 31, 2012. Operating income, net income, and diluted earnings per share for the quarter were $7.77 billion, $6.38 billion, and $0.76 per share, During the earnings conference call, Chief Financial Officer Peter Klein repeated a number of times that Surface contributed to revenue.
"Certainly this quarter [Surface] was a contributing factor to revenue growth in the Windows business," Klein said. During the call, Microsoft cited Surface as a part of non-OEM revenue that grew 40%.
Microsoft Surface
Microsoft's first Surface was released in October, and it is driven by a form of Windows 8 called RT, which is contained in competing tablets and smartphones. The new Surface Pro will be released to enable customers have the opportunity of choosing the type of their choice. Through such an option, they can personalize their experience and gain greater enjoyment from the tablet. Microsoft officials stated Surface RT will soon be shipped to Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland.
"We are thrilled to expand the Surface family with the release of Surface Pro," said Panos Panay, corporate vice president, Microsoft Surface. "The launch of Surface Pro marks a pivotal moment for customers who can now do more with their machines than ever before. Within the Surface family, customers will be able to choose a combination of devices that best suit their needs: Surface Pro, which provides the power and performance of a laptop in a tablet package, or Surface RT, which offers the convenience of a tablet with some laptop capabilities so you can get things done."
It is noticeable that the Surface Pro tablets are among Microsoft's first products shipped to the market in the New Year. The Surface line of products is proving popular with time, and gaining a head start early in the year over its rivals is good for Microsoft. When we relate Microsoft's tablet sales to its recent financial statement, it is clear Microsoft has been improved in comparison to its 2013 first quarter report, so it can be said that the company is operating at an efficient level.
Fundamentals & Competitor Analysis
Microsoft currently has a P/E ratio of 15.41. This compares to Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) at 10.58, Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) at 24.26, Dell (NASDAQ: DELL) at 9.33, Oracle (NYSE: ORCL) at 16.41, Samsung (SSNLF) at 8.68 and industry average at 11.70. Microsoft has a huge opportunity here. The Surface Pro was recently released, and the $999 128GB model sold out instantly. On the day of the release, Microsoft shares jumped 1.13%, and the stock traded well above its daily average of 50.3 million shares. Microsoft is set to rise on strong sales of the Surface Pro.
With gross margin of 73.47%, compared 38.63% for Apple, 60.06% for Google, and 20.93% for Dell, and price-to-sales ratio of 3.20, compared with 5.14 for Google and 4.45 for Oracle, and price-to-earnings ratio of 15.31, compared with 24.29 for Google and 16.44 for Oracle, Microsoft does seem to be ahead of its peers. Samsung has just released its ATIV PC PRO, but it lacks an e-mail client. Apple's iPad 3 is in direct competition with Surface Pro, but it lacks microSD slot for storage expansion. Dell has just launched its latitude tablet, but Surface Pro can give it a run for its money. With the Surface Pro release, Microsoft will compete more effectively with its rivals. And it must be noted, Microsoft is supposedly the biggest in the niche it is operating in.
Looking at its sales of the Surface, initial sales of the Surface Pro, and the prospect of rising sales of tablets worldwide, Microsoft appears to be a solid investment at the moment.

- Int'l Scholar & Faculty Services
This OSU Hybrid E-Campus course will occur online for the first 9 weeks of fall term 2014 followed by 10 days (Dec 11-21) in Costa Rica, hosted by the Monteverde Institute.
Online and Monteverde, Puntarenas, Costa Rica.
To be considered for acceptance into this special section of FOR 365, students must meet the following requirements:
Do you have a desire to explore an international locale? What to see where your bananas, coffee, and almonds come from? And at the same time, meet your Contemporary Global Issues Bacc Core course out of the way? Then the hybrid course FOR365 – Costa Rica may be your ticket to learning and adventure.
FOR 365, Issues in Natural Resources Conservation, explores current and historical human uses of resources and how we can develop sustainable solutions to resource consumption. This Hybrid Course (part online, part face-to-face) will be online for the first nine weeks of the term. Then, grab your passport, pack your warm weather wear, and head to the airport. The class will meet face-to-face in Costa Rica, arriving in the Central Valley, traveling to the Caribbean Coastal Plain, up and around the volcanic spine of Central America to the Pacific Coast. Along the way we will explore fruit and coffee plantations, explore the mysteries of the Cloud Forests (Bosques Nubosos), and learn about sea turtle conservation. En route we will also dive into the global perspectives of the environmental, economic, and social issues that worked on during the online class portion.
Students who have completed FES365/FOR365 and meet all other requirements, may apply to participate in the Costa Rica study tour only may be able to register for NR 499 for 1 cr.
This course will be an affordable way to knock out some of your required credits, have a meaningful international experience (not a resort vacation) and a good bit of fun, and maybe ignite your inner passion for Natural Resource Conservation. Most of the costs of the class and the trip are allowable educational expenses and covered by financial aid. Intrigued? Contact the instructor Ron Reuter (firstname.lastname@example.com).
The course is planned expecting students to arrive at San Jose International Airport in the central valley and depart from Liberia International Airport on the Pacific Coast. Students that are planning to arrive prior to the in-country component or depart later than the end of class are responsible for being in San Jose for the first night of the group program and/or must arrange their on transportation for after the last day of the program.
We will be staying at a combination of hotels and ecological study areas. The hotels will likely be doubles and triples and the study areas will have bunk-style lodging. Depending on enrollment, there may be an option to pay extra for a single room for a few of the nights of lodging.
The program dates are December 11-21, 2014.
In addition to submitting this online application, please respond to the essay prompts below. All essays should be saved into one PDF document titled with the applicants first and last name. Email the PDF to Ron Reuter (firstname.lastname@example.com) by midnight (PST) on June 23, 2014. [The deadline has been extended.]
1. Please write a brief autobiographical sketch that includes your personal history/family background, where you currently live, your work/educational experience, previous travel experience and other factors which have influenced your personal development. (approximately 1 page)
2. FOR 365 (Issues in Natural Resources Conservation) is offered on campus in Bend in addition to being a hybrid course. This Costa Rica Hybrid Course is the first time that FOR 365 will have an international travel component. Please explain why you decided to participate in this special section of FOR 365 and how you will actively contribute to this course. (approximately 1 page)
3. This course is a hybrid course that requires commitment to online learning and self-pacing to ensure success. While the Costa Rica component is a highlight, the first 9 weeks of the course are vital to making Costa Rica a meaningful experience. Explain your experience with online learning communities and how much time you expect to commit to this course during the term. What are your expectations for how this course will impact your OSU education and professional goals? (approximately 1 page)
The course has a built-in course fee that is paid to OSU to cover the costs of the on-the-ground program which includes lodging, most food, and transportation during the 11 day program. For 2014, this is projected to be $1600. You are responsible for paying airfare (depending on when purchased and where you are flying from between $600 and $1000). You have to have a passport (first-time costs ~$135). There is an exit fee that you need to pay Costa Rica (typically at the airport) that is currently $28.

Semester at Sea is a pioneer and leader in global, comparative education—a form of international study that focuses on surveying the world's peoples, patterns, cultures, and traditions. Global, comparative education is the element that distinguishes Semester at Sea from other study abroad programs. Operating a traveling shipboard campus allows diverse learning communities to live and learn in close quarters as they travel the world, and SAS provides opportunities for intensive engagement, reflection, interaction, and exchange that simply aren't available with other programs. Field-based, experiential learning is a vital component of Semester at Sea. The ship becomes a campus where participants study in a traditional setting, while the world is transformed into an academic laboratory where students earn 20% of their grade. Field Labs are designed and led by a faculty member who has expertise in a particular culture, location, or subject matter. These in-port labs enhance and explore course content. SAS directed trips are led by staff or faculty. May be recommended by a faculty member as an excellent complement to a student's syllabus. Independent Practica are opportunities for a participant to conduct independent research. Requires faculty approval to count as fulfillment of field requirement.

As many continue to observe Lent, fish is a common and popular menu item. However, fast food and processed fish can be extremely unhealthy for you.
That's why the Dakota Medical Foundation and Cass-Clay Alive, have teamed up to help you eat healthier fish options. Cooking your own fish can be significantly lower in calories, sodium and cholesterol, among other things.
Deb Haugen, a dietitian with Cass-Clay Alive, says cooking your own fish can be easier than you think. She shared two recipes on Wednesday's Valley Today:
Poached Cod
Baked Tilapia
The Dakota Medical Foundation even offers healthy cooking classes at their instruction kitchen every Tuesday night. To register, visit: www.dakmed.org or www.impactgiveback.org
The Dakota Medical Foundation is located at 4141 28th Avenue South in Fargo.
