Menlo College's Rankings Define a Premier Business Education
Menlo College is one of the premier undergraduate business schools of Silicon Valley, as recognized by AACSB accreditation -- a distinction held by less than five percent of the world's business schools. Princeton Review ranks the College as a "Best in the West." US News & World Report selected the College as a "Best Regional College" and placed Menlo in the top tier of schools in the Regional Colleges category.
Located in Silicon Valley, the Hub of Technology
Menlo College's location in the San Francisco Bay Area makes it uniquely suited to provide the nation's best in business education. Menlo is situated in the heart of this region, about midway between San Francisco and San Jose, in Silicon Valley. It is one of the most entrepreneurial and innovative areas in the country, and its importance in the world of business and technology is well known. The area is one of the nation's most desirable places to live, with an excellent climate, culture, and renowned diversity.
Required Internships Lead to Job Placement
The academically rigorous education at Menlo College is partnered with an internship program focused on helping students explore a career path and learn how to market their personal brand. The internship is a tremendous opportunity for students to apply classroom learning to real-world settings and gain a competitive advantage in job interviews and graduate school applications.
- 100% of the business students are required to complete internships
- 100% of the students have the advantage of 1:1 career advising with the internship director and seasoned faculty
- 90% of the 2013 class found jobs upon graduation, many of which were secured through the internship experience
Menlo College students are in the right spot to get a job at some of the greatest companies in the world (Apple, Facebook, Google, eBay), or be a part of a start-up company that might just be the next big thing.
Can I Afford to Attend Menlo College?
We work hard to keep Menlo affordable. 93% of Menlo students receive financial aid, and they are often able to get verification of it in Menlo College's some form of financial assistance. We offer both merit-based scholarships and need-based aid to help make a Menlo education a reality.
Scholarship awards are based on your academic GPA and your entering status at Menlo College, and are renewable for up to 4 years. The many scholarship opportunities available through the College include the following.
-$17,000 President's Scholarship
-$15,000 Deans Scholarship
-$13,000 Leadership Scholarship
Menlo also maintains an institutional grant program to fund need-based awards, and athletic scholarships that recognize talent. Other sources of financial support that may be available to Menlo College students include Cal Grant awards for California residents, Pell Grants, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (SEOG), and support through the work-student program.
Our Staff Can Help You
Because of our small size, our staff will thoroughly review the availability of financial aid with each student on an individual basis. You must be fully admitted to Menlo before your financial aid can be completely processed. Once admitted, domestic students need to complete the free application for Student Financial Aid (FAFSA) in order to be considered for need-based awards. Learn more about the various types of aid available.
Personalized Approach to Academic Rigor
Now at campus capacity, Menlo College will not over-enroll. The small environment is the perfect setting for a personalized education by stellar faculty.
- 14:1 student faculty ratio
- Every student has an academic advisor
- 1:1 faculty or peer tutoring available
Small Student Body Connects with a Vast Alumni Network
Developing connections is crucial for any student interested in achieving entrepreneurial or business success. Menlo College helps students foster the relationships and build the networks that will see them through to the achievement of their goals. The school's successful alumni base is dedicated to helping current students and recent graduates in every area of the country and around the world.
Alumni such as John Pritzker `76, CEO of Geolo Capital, and veteran of the hospitality industry, Nate Jackson '01, NFL Veteran/Author, Saeed Amidi, CEO of Plug and Play Tech Center, and Michael Tomars '87, Branch Chief of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission share their perspective with students at campus events.
With a maximum student body of 750 undergraduates who mostly live on campus, Menlo students get to know one another and build friendships and acquaintanceships that give them a professional and personal advantage. With international students comprising 17 percent of the student body and representing thirty countries, Menlo's students expand their horizons as they attend classes and work alongside individuals from every background and from every corner of the world.
Twelve Bachelor's Programs in Business and Psychology
Within its business-oriented environment, Menlo College allows students to focus on one of many available areas of specialization. B.S. and B.A. degrees are available in fields of accounting, entrepreneurship, finance, human resource management, international management, management, management information systems, marketing, marketing communications, psychology, real estate, and sports management. Individualized programs of study are also available that let students develop curricula that suit their personal needs and interests and result in a B.S. or B.A. upon graduation. The College offers the Professional Studies Program for working adults, and offers other flexible study options that can be tailored to individual requirements.
Life Outside the Classroom Contributes to the Advantage Earned by Menlo Grads
Fully half of Menlo's students participate in inter-collegiate sports programs. Student clubs and organizations are, as would be expected, some of the most innovative available. Students can participate in anything from the Investment and Rotaract Clubs to clubs like the Hawai'i Club, Horror Film Club, Surf Club, and Yoga Club. Becoming involved with other students and collaborating to bring innovative ideas to fruition helps students develop the interpersonal and leadership skills that they will take with them into the working world.

8 Candidate Interview Reviews Back to all InterviewsSort: Popular Date Difficulty
Associate Consultant Interview
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Deloitte.
Sent my resume in and was contacted right away via email from an HR rep. Interview went relatively smoothly, very basic fit questions based off of my resume alone. (Tell me about your time at ... , what did you learn while working at ... , etc.) Position I was applying for was actually unavailable (they received my resume from an employee referral), but they did offer me the option of applying for a different position just to get my feet in the door which I thought was generous.
Interview Questions
- None, all straightforward Answer Question
Other Interview Reviews for Deloitte
Associate Consultant InterviewNo OfferPositive ExperienceEasy Interview
I applied through other source. The process took 4+ weeks. I interviewed at Deloitte (Arlington, VA) in June 2012.
I got in touch with the Deloitte recruiter via my alumni association. A recruiter touched base with me and indicated they were looking to invite several Junior Military Officers to a hiring event. They made adequate travel arrangements for me to fly cross coast. The interview consisted of 3 1:1 interviews from various federal consultants. Only one was a case interview. The case interview was VERY qualitative and, in my opinion, not very difficult. The feedback I received was that I was not enthusiastic enough about the case interview. This is fair, considering the problem set could not have been more boring. Perhaps this is an indication that I'm not a good fit for consulting :) After being shown the door the recruiter was nice enough to follow up with me and touch base about possibly interviewing again in the future.
Interview Questions
- Nothing you wouldn't expect from a behavior interview or a qualitative case interview. I didn't really experience anything challenging or stimulating through the process, but that may be indicative of the career field as a whole. Answer Question

I applied through college or university. The process took a week. I interviewed at Deloitte (Williamstown, MA) in April 2012.
Went through college career center and applied with a cover letter and resume. Was notified through university online portal and put in touch with a recruiter who sent me links to complete a background check. She helped me schedule my interview. It was a forty minute interview with two consultants. One was a get to know you and the other was a business case.
Interview Questions
- It was a business case question. Answer Question
Associate Consultant InterviewAccepted OfferPositive ExperienceAverage Interview
I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Deloitte (Tulsa, OK) in February 2011.
The interview took almost all day, in which the first half of the day will be a real interview with 4 different people from different functions. The interview was fairly comfortable with 1 on 1 interview. The last one was with the director of the branch. The second part of the interview day was having lunch with Deloitte's staff in Tulsa, in which you will have to interact with your potential co-workers if you are selected. The over all of the interview was great and easy going. I love the way they conduct the interview. It was pretty organized and friendly whereas it will release some of your nervousness.
Interview Questions
- Pretty much all the questions asked were general and expected. Some of the example of questions: -Tell me about yourself? -Why should we hire you? -What kind of experience do you have? Answer Question
There was not any negotiation for freshly graduated candidates.

I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Deloitte (Johannesburg (South Africa)) in April 2013.
Two interviews- staff was friendly, relaxed. No trickery. First interview was a case study involving an operations problem solving problem. Second was organisational effectiveness. All round - fair interviews. Communication was good and regular.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Deloitte (Hyderābād (India)) in April 2012.
After 3 rounds of telephonic interviews (including case round over the phone), they flew in candidates from parts of the country for 3 rounds of interviews. These consisted of case study round, behavioral and a partner round of interviews. They stress on why you want to be in consulting? The case rounds are standard as in any other consulting firm. It was well organized with lunch provided and all expenses covered by Deloitte.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Deloitte in August 2011.
Did two interviews back to back, one was a fit interview, the other a case study, got stuck on the question, have you ever had an "aha" moment? Other questions were things such as, "why consulting?" "Walk me through your resume", "Talk about a time you had to work on a team"

Hey every one!!
Yes I am back with another story!! But this time, I am not alone..
For the first time I'm going for a joint venture, with my dear Choti aka Payal_156 who has been the inspiration to pen this one down...
Its been a time when this story outline is been in her head, so we are going for it together!!
Hope you like it, and we are eagerly waiting for your responses.
So here we go...
zindagi kya hai...
aankhon ka paani ya
khushiyon ki kahani...
sab kehte hai jiyo har pal tum iss zindagi ko
kya pata kal ho na ho..
shayad sahi kehte hai sab..
kisi ki bi zindagi ek pal par hi depend hoti h..
kisi ki zindagi ka ek lamha uski zindagi badal sakta hai..
aisa hi hua Arjun ke saath bhi..
zindagi aapka hamesha saath de ya ache lamhe de jaye zaruri to nahi
log kehte hai kisi ke chale jane se zindagi rukti nahi mana
par usi purana tareeke se chalti bhi nahi...
Khalipan adhurapan
bharta nahi...
usne bhi jiya tha ek aise zindagi, najaane kiske nazar lag gayi??
zindagi ek paheli hai
naye rang dikhlati hai har kisi ko har roj!.
par ye zaruri to nahi ki har koi uske rang me rang jaye..
zindagi ek anokhi dastan hai
jo ise samaj jata hai
wo is kasauti par khara utar jata hai
par jo nahi samajta...
zindagi use apne tarike se samjha hi deti hai..
bs sabka apna nazariya h koi use jaldi samaj leta h aur koi der se..
aisa hi hua kuch arjun ki zindagi me bi..

Our honeymoon at the Gili Lankanfushi was... even better than we expected. So what sets this apart from the luxury resorts everywhere in the Maldives? My wife called it understated luxury. They have truly surrounded you with every comfort, yet nothing is obtrusive or annoying. We like resorts that pay attention to environmentally friendly practices, and they have this in drones. Reusable dispensers for the toiletries, bags for taking home plastic waste, bikes to get around, sustainable building materials in the villas, and reusable bottles for water. There are only 30-something units for the property, so you feel like you have the place to yourself all the time. There's never a rush to the pool, we played tennis whenever we wanted, and the staff treats you as if you're the only one there. Our Mr. Friday (Fathuhy) was superb. Professional, attentive to details, and responsive. Few other things we especially loved- the 2nd floor of our villa suite which they set up as a bedroom to sleep under the stars, the constant parade of delectable delights at the pool (thanks Aunu), the palpable excitement of the staff to help and teach (thanks Nicholas), and our couples massage was easily the most impressive overall spa experience we've ever had. We also liked that Lankanfushi is only 15 minutes away from Male by boat. Some people want the seaplane experience, but coming from the US, another flight was just not what we wanted. And a note about the food- there are 3 separate restaurants, and the diversity of food was impressive. We are self-anointed foodies, and even the though the food is pricey, it's darn good. Honestly, there are a plethora of wonderful resorts in the Maldives, but this truly stands apart in environmentally sound practices, quiet understated luxury, and the nicest, happiest staff you could meet. Thanks for a perfect honeymoon.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):

No mention of the first time a cast member directed an episode of Trek? (Trek movies excepted) Frakes broke the barrier, allowing many other Trek actors a chance to direct as well.
Indeed that is a very important landmark for television driven Star Trek. The first Star Trek regular cast member to direct a Star Trek "thing" I believe was Leonard Nimoy with Star Trek III, and Frakes was the first regular cast member to direct an episode for the series.... Now that I mention that, Jonathan Frakes is the only member of the Star Trek community to direct Star Trek productions for both film, television and video games.

DEFINITION of 'Special Warranty Deed'
A special warranty deed is a deed in which the seller warrants or guarantees the title only against defects arising during the period of his or her tenure or ownership of the property. The grantor makes no warranty against defects existing before the time of his or her ownership.
BREAKING DOWN 'Special Warranty Deed'
A special warranty deed is less protective to the buyer than a general warranty deed. The grantor of a special warranty deed conveys the property with two warranties: that he or she received the title to the property; and, that the property was not encumbered during his or her ownership. The grantor of a special warranty deed warrants the title only against his or her own omissions and/or defects, and warrants nothing pertaining to the title prior to his or her possession.
Quitclaim DeedA deed releasing a person's interest in a property without stating ...
Defective TitleA piece of property or asset that has a publicly-recorded encumbrance, ...
TitleThe right to the ownership and possession of any item that may ...

Quiksilver Reviews
Reviewer: from
Overall: Comfort: Style:
These are wonderful shorts! The fabric is incredibly soft and it drapes really well-meaning that they look good enough to use for a more tailored or dressy look too.
Reviewer: from NYC
Overall: Comfort: Style:
I bought these shoes for work. I've purchased so many different kinds of shoes for work over the years. None have delivered in comfort, style, and odor protection such as these . I work as a concierge in NYC , we spend countless hours a day on our feet, these shoes are extremely light, the fabric is breathable, and the cushion is comfortable. Would definitely recommend these shoes to anyone interested in them. Can be worn casually with jeans, or even in an office environment with slacks and a button up t shirt. And for the price these shoes can't be beat. Loved them so much I bought a second pair to alternate with.
Reviewer: Jeff victor from Santa Clarita
Overall: Comfort: Style:
Excellent slide sandal. Was worried about the non-adjustable top but these are very well designed and stay where they need to be when walking. I am writing this review after a trip to the lake with them and they were perfect! They are comfortable and dry fast!
Reviewer: Tim plonk from NC
Overall: Comfort: Style:
This hat provides the best sun shade of all the hats I have tried. I have very fare skin and a history of skin cancer in my family. I wear it in the yard and at the pool and in the water swimming with my 3 yr old daughter. It sags a little when wet but if you lay it on a flat surface the wide brim dries flat again. It is difficult to travel it on a plane or pack it in a suitcase. The way I use the hat, it takes a pretty good beating and I usually have to buy a new one every year. at this price though it doesn't hurt the wallet too much, and if it prevents serious skin damage or future cancer it will be well worth it.
Reviewer: from
Overall: Comfort: Style:
Just received these and have yet to wear them, the look good and do feel good in my limited time with them, appear to be well made. I wear a size 12 and bought a 13, glad I did as a 12 would have been to small, order 1 size larger.
Reviewer: E.D. from Yonkers, NY
Overall: Comfort: Style:
Gift for my husband. The Boardshorts were delivered in a very timely manner and my husband is very pleased with the quality of the item. The fit is true to size. Loving it - no problems.
Reviewer: from Overland Park, KS
Overall: Comfort: Style:
As advertised. I wear this commercial lawn mowing. It shades the entire back of my neck, shoulders and face very effectively.
Reviewer: maddog from slo
Overall: Comfort: Style:
After 30 days the hat is cracking at the crown and unraveling around the brim! I am very disappointed. I went back to Central Coast Surf Shop bu they were of no help. They told me to deal with Quicksilver.
Reviewer: Sean from Anderson, IN
Overall: Comfort: Style:
I originally bought these because they were the same design as of pair of vans that I liked a lot. These are more comfortable. They don't breathe as much as I would like but overall it's a very good shoe.
Reviewer: from
Overall: Comfort: Style:
Good fit. The toe post is in the correct place for me. Quicksilver is great. Everyone can hear you coming, though.
Reviewer: Carole from Lake Charles, LA
Overall: Comfort: Style:
Bought this hat for my husband who's been complaining that his canvas hat is hotter than his old straw hat (which I threw away). He loves his new hat; fits well, won't blow off and lets his head breathe.
Reviewer: Jay from New York
Overall: Comfort: Style:
This hat looks great, awesome for riding your bike around town or a day at the shore. The flex fit cap is why I purchased this. Along with the nice subtle logo design, the flexfit cap stretches to fit you perfectly I would not want a hat made of anything else.
Reviewer: from Fairfield, ct
Overall: Comfort: Style:
This is my 3rd pierside hat. Love the look and coverage it gives. This hat does not travel well on planes though. The material is delicate and won't stand up to a beating.
Reviewer: from Colorado
Overall: Comfort: Style:
My son had a hat similar to this and I looked high and low to replace it after his fell apart. This fits the bill perfectly and looks to be of good quality. He loves it and wears it at his outside job. 5 stars for the price and a 6th star for Zappos!
Reviewer: Henry Zhao from Austin, TX
Overall: Comfort: Style:
These shoes are affordable yet very comfortable. They are not flimsy and are well worth the cost. Highly recommend!
Reviewer: Andrew Karp from
Overall: Comfort: Style:
A week of really moderate wear, most of it indoor, and these things began to fray at the toes. I've had flip flops from a few manufacturers over the years, and though these aren't the cheapest I've bought, they are the most cheaply made I've owned. Poor quality. Really dropped the ball, Quiksilver.
Reviewer: from CA
Overall: Comfort: Style:
Love these shoes. Loved my first pair so I bought a second color. Great everyday casual shoes. I had been wearing the Vans Michoacan, but was looking for an alternative because while I like the style, they would fall apart so quickly. These Quicksilvers offer a similar style, but are a much greater quality. The canvas is thicker, the sole is bouncier/stickier, the arch is more supportive, and the sole and canvas upper aren't separating at that point where the shoe bends as so many other shoes like this do. While they're true to size, I will say they are VERY true, not much wiggle room for thick socks or extra sole or anything (I'm a size 13).
Reviewer: Donn H. from Charleston, WV
Overall: Comfort: Style:
I really like this hat. It has very wide brim that blocks the sun all around. It provides great protection to the back of your neck also. It could have been designed with some stronger material, but it is a nice hat. I mainly got it for fishing, but will use it for yard work as well.
Reviewer: Scott Fowler from Springville, Utah
Overall: Comfort: Style:
This is a great hat. It is flexible so it adjusts to a nice range of head sizes. I have got a 7 3/4 - 7 5/8 head and this fit really well. No squeezing. However, it is a straw hat so it is very fragile (minus one for the fragility of the hat).
Reviewer: from Montana
Overall: Comfort: Style:
Great looking slide & my husband said they're very comfortable. There was only one major problem, he left them in the sun for a few hours where they shrunk & curled up like elf shoes! I tried not to laugh & Zappos was very good to us about this situation. But for being a surfing brand one would think the slide could withstand some sunshine!
Reviewer: from Sunnyvale, CA
Overall: Comfort: Style:
These feel a bit narrow. The biggest problem is that the inner foot liner is rubbery, which causes your sock to bunch up when you slip your foot in.

May 20, 2011 Now that Dominique Strauss-Kahn has resigned as head of the International Monetary Fund, competition for the top job is heating up. One issue is whether the managing director's office will once again be occupied by a European.

text: The Sirchie MAGNUCLEI Magnetic Latent Print Powder (16 oz Volume) is the result of years of research and development. Sirchie regular magnetic powders are already the best available, but there was a need for a dual purpose powder for finer dusting applications. MAGNUCLEI utilizes powders that have been milled to average particle sizes that are less than half the size of regular magnetic powders. This powder is very effective on glass, plastic, wood, ceramic and metallic surfaces - use on paper surfaces without leaving dark backgrounds. It works well on imitation and genuine leather if developed within a short time of being handled.

TALLADEGA, AL - OCTOBER 30: Denny Hamlin, driver of the #11 FedEx Express Toyota, stands in the garage area during practice for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series AMP Energy 500 at Talladega Superspeedway on October 30, 2009 in Talladega, Alabama. (Photo by Chris Graythen/Getty Images)
(Eds: With AP Photos.) By JENNA FRYER AP Auto Racing Writer There was a noticeable change in Denny Hamlin three years ago when he finally broke through for his first career victory at his home track in Richmond. He was soaring when he left the speedway with the one trophy he had coveted his entire life. Convinced he could not be stopped, he raced that way the rest of the year and flirted with the Sprint Cup championship. That attitude stayed with him into 2010, when he won a career-high eight races and took Jimmie Johnson to the wire in the championship race. But Hamlin fumbled away the title in the finale, and it took him a year to recover. Now, on the three-year anniversary of that Richmond victory, Hamlin is headed home to Virginia with his confidence through the roof again. ''It's very similar to how I felt in 2009,'' he said. ''I'd say for sure I haven't felt this good since then.'' He has every reason to feel invincible. He signed a long-term contract extension with Joe G...

Comic Book: The Nobody
The Nobody is the first graphic novel by the Eisner-nominated cartoonist Jeff Lemire to be published by the Vertigo imprint of DC Comics. It is a story inspired by H. G. Wells' novel The Invisible Man and recasts the iconic bandaged stranger as a modern drifter. His presence in a small American fishing village creates a frenzy that unwraps and exposes the scarred underside to their own secrets.

The Aughts Silver Linings: Why Bruce Matters
On The Brian Lehrer Show we've been looking back at the 2000s, which some are calling one of the worst decades ever. But there's also plenty of silver linings, and BL Show producer Jody Avirgan makes his case for why Bruce Springsteen is the most encouraging story of the decade.
The apocryphal story is that, soon after September 11th, 2001, a young man approached Bruce Springsteen outside of a grocery store and told him, simply, "we need you." Whether this really happened or if it was some sort of parking-lot vision doesn't really matter – Bruce probably knew that we needed him from the moment he saw the two towers fall.
The album that rose from that plea was "The Rising," the culmination of Bruce Springsteen's transformation from heartland hero to our country's most important poet-bard. And it's that transformation that has marked much of what has been great about the "aughts", rising from the ashes that fell at the dawn of the decade. Starting with those songs and throughout the last ten years, Bruce picked up and embraced the power of song to inspire collective emotion and action. His songs stopped being about individuals (pimps, hot rod racers, and circus freaks) and became about us, his brothers and sisters.
Now the sweet veils of mercy
drift through the evening trees
Young men on the corner
like scattered leaves
The boarded up windows
The empty streets
While my brother's down on his knees
This decade saw Springsteen openly embrace the politics and patriotism of song in the finest folk tradition; but this political engagement has little to do with his campaigning for President Obama last fall – just ask conservative columnist David Brooks and Republican Governor-Elect Chris Christie what they think of Bruce. Instead, Springsteen's most meaningful stand is the one he takes for hope, dignity, brotherhood and "small-d" democracy. And in the 2000s, that stand qualified as a monumental political statement.
He's inserted himself into a tradition of American folk-prophets – you can draw a line from Joe Hill to Woody Guthrie, through Pete Seeger and Bob Dylan, right to Bruce. (Though, I like the formulation by Jon Stewart best when he introduced Springsteen at the Kennedy Center honors: "I believe Bob Dylan and James Brown had a baby…and they deposited that child somewhere between exit 9 and 9A off the Jersey Turnpike.") When I think of Bruce Springsteen's flourishing role in our national conversation - and at the age of 60 no less – I think of what Woody Guthrie said:
I hate a song that makes you think that you are not any good. I hate a song that makes you think that you are just born to lose. Bound to lose. No good to nobody. No good for nothing. Because you are too old or too young or too fat or too slim too ugly or too this or too that. Songs that run you down or poke fun at you on account of your bad luck or hard traveling. I am out to fight those songs to my very last breath of air and my last drop of blood…. I decided a long time ago that I'd starve to death before I'd sing any such songs as that. The radio waves and your movies and your jukeboxes and your songbooks are already loaded down and running over with such no good songs as that anyhow.
I know Bruce has memorized those words, and I'm glad he's decided to live them out and bring us along with him.

|Stone County Ironworks is America's Blacksmith Shop™, using traditional hand forging techniques to create iron furniture and accessories, one at a time. Quality workmanship that reflects the skill of the blacksmith continues to set Stone County Ironworks apart from other manufacturers.
Stone County Ironworks in Mountain View, Arkansas was begun in an old gas station in 1979 by one blacksmith, who apprenticed and demonstrated the craft at the Ozark Folk Center in 1976. Early sales were at retail craft shows, but by 1984 wholesale accounts were the focus, with the help of 9 employees. That year a 5000 square foot building was erected with the assistance of local government agencies who sought to create opportunity in the area.
In 1989 the first Furniture Collection was showcased at an Interior Design trade show, and after rave reviews, was featured in the 1990 catalog. By then, 33,000 square feet of production and office space and over 100 employees handled 3000 wholesale accounts. A showroom and outlet store opened on the Square in downtown Mountain View in a beautiful stone building on the National Historic Register. Also, in the December 1990 issue of Inc. Magazine, Stone County Ironworks was rated #252 on the annual list of the 500 fastest growing privately held companies in the nation.
By 2003, after reorganization and consolidation of resources, the Stone County Ironworks facility at 408 Ironworks Drive was purchased by a local business leader. Metal Creations, Inc. dba Stone County Ironworks is committed to returning to our roots, with the reputation and standards of Made in America quality and satisfaction. The Pine Collection, Vineyard Collection, and the Designer Series, designed by the Daniel Stuart Studio, are new product lines created under new management, as they rekindle the spark of excitement and pride in workmanship learned here in Stone County.

A seminar on journalism held in Kuwait exposes the nation's struggle to maintain press freedom
January 27, 2009 12:52 by Rawan Khalid
There cannot be a democracy without a free press, explained MP Saleh Al Mulla. The Kuwait Journalists Association (KJA) organized a seminar on Sunday titled 'The responsibility of the Media in Protecting the Society from the Implications of Conflicts and Crises.' Key speakers included former Minister of Information Dr. Anas Al Rashid, author Zayed Al Zaid, and MP Saleh Al Mulla.
The media holds a great responsibility to the public, Al-Mullah stated in a speech at the seminar, adding that this is the case especially when facing crises, and this can only happen through transparency. In addition, he praised the local press and its role in revealing the facts of cases such as the fourth refinery and the Dow chemical partnership.
Al Mullah voiced his regret regarding the lack of a popular press that can genuinely express the beliefs of the Kuwaiti people. "There are good journalists that address crises we are facing, and there are other journalists, like those who tried to cover up the many thefts that have come to light," he said. More importantly, Al Mulla pointed out that some newspaper owners are unprofessional and own these newspapers just to propagate their political parties and their ideals instead of voicing the beliefs of the Kuwaiti people.
The editors try to pacify the newspaper owners, and so they publish articles that go against their true values, he said. "We are in need of tabloids owned by various segments of the society, in order to express the opinion of the community. We also have to admit that we are a community of immigrants and our survival depends on our acceptance of one another. The media and especially newspapers should preserve this social fabric instead of breaking it down," he concluded.
Dr. Anas Al Rasheed noted that Kuwait has made a huge leap in liberal thinking, making everyone eligible to hold a media license. He also explained that the seminar's title was inadequate as it bears the media with the responsibility of solving crises, whereas it should only reveal it.
"There are four media theories," Al Rasheed explained. "First is the theory of authoritarianism, which does not allow the media to criticize its governments. Second, the theory of Communist authoritarianism places the interests of the party over the State. Third, there is the American doctrine of freedom, which provides freedom of speech and places the citizen above the government. Finally, the fourth theory was established in Europe, and it is the theory of social responsibility, which gives the state the right to intervene to maintain security," Al Rashed added.
He explained that all big media organizations follow a code of honor, which helps them face external crises. He stressed that opinions are free but facts are sacred, and thus writers must explore accuracy and truth. "A crisis is a natural thing in every society and conflicted communities always try to avoid it. We in Kuwait are facing crises and not just conflicts," said Zayed Al Zaid.
"The principle role of the media is transparency," he added, explaining that organizations must not publish or hide information to serve only their cause.
Al Zaid stated that some MPs blackmail and extort other MPs, and behave in a manner that negates their role as representatives of the nation. They do it in order to protect their interests, he said. He later explained that no one can blame the media, as it bears so many responsibilities.
The economic crisis will have a huge impact on the survival newspapers because of the lack of liquidity, explaining that this will be the reason that many newspapers will fail, he concluded.

I just had these rotors and positive quiet pads installed. I've only been driving with them a few days and I'm happy. Huge improvement from the warped ones I had but when I asked my mechanic about them he said they are quite thin. And the next time I need them they can't be machined, they will need to be replaced. So now I really hope they last after hearing that. I bought these because of the good reviews they had. I am pretty easy on my brakes on my '98 fourunner so time will tell.

Impact 18″ Diffuser Sock Review
If you're a portrait photographer, you probably prefer softer light to more harsh light. I know I do. When I first used the Impact Flourescent Cool Light Kit, the only thing I wished I had was a diffuser of some sort. Now I do. Here's a quick review of the Impact 18″ Diffuser Sock
Impact Light Kit Bag Review
This is a review of the Impact Light Kit Bag. For my studio lighting, I use a set of four Alien Bees heads along with a variety of light stands and modifiers. When I'm shooting on location, I prefer to make as few trips to and from my car as possible, so the fewer bags I have to carry, the better. For the past few years the bag I've been using for my lights has served me well, but I wanted to try something a little bigger and see if I could fit even more into it. Let's see if this bag from Impact is going to work for my needs.

We recently reviewed the Sport Strap from BlackRapid which we really liked, but for some people straps are still too bothersome. There are alternatives that allow the photographer to clip their cameras to a belt and avoid the strap altogether if they so desire. The Capture Clip Pro from Peak Design and the SpiderPro Camera Holster from Shai Gear are both strapless camera carrying systems that give you the feeling of stepping back in time to the days of the wild west but instead of gunslinging, you're a camera toting cowboy. In this head-to-head review, we will examine the Capture Clip Pro vs the SpiderPro Camera Holster and try to help you know which system might be best for you.
Manfrotto 405 Pro Geared Head Review
During the last few weeks, I have been trying to come up with a good solution for testing lenses that did not require constant movement when dealing with slightly de-centered lenses. The idea was to build a setup similar to macro rails, but one that is bigger in size and very stable at the same time. Stability is extremely important, because even a slight vibration can negatively affect lab results. Using an Arca-Swiss quick release setup was a no-brainer, because it allows moving the setup without having to deal with mounting and dismounting anything, while being rock solid when tightly secured. While my BH-55 Pro tripod head from Really Right Stuff has been serving me well for a while now, it was hard to use for minute adjustments that are often necessary when testing lenses. Therefore, I decided to replace it with a geared head that would allow very precise vertical and horizontal tilt adjustments, along with the ability to pan, when needed. My quick search revealed that unlike the army of pan/tilt heads and ballheads, which are made by a myriad of companies, there are only a few options available for geared heads today. One of them is the Manfrotto 405 Pro Geared head, which I am reviewing today.

Sun Lakes Halloween Swiss Teams
On October 29, Sun Lakes DBC will hold a Halloween Swiss team event in place of the regular Thursday pairs game, costumes optional but always fun. This will be a Club Appreciation game so extra points will be awarded. Dave and JoAnn Zapatka will direct.
Advance team registration is required. There is a three ring binder at the games for pre-registration. Since there is always a chance that we may have to turn teams away due to space limitations, pre-registered teams consisting of 100% Sun Lakes club members will have precedence through October 24 for firm reservations. For those of you returning to the Valley sometime in October, you may either wait to pre-register before October 24, or, if you wish to assemble a team before your return, just email me () with the names of all your team members, and I will acknowledge.
Seeding will be completed prior to the day of the game. Once a team is pre-registered, it is the responsibility of the team captain to notify me promptly of cancellation or change to the team membership.
Sun Lakes Temporary Venue Change
Mark your calendars. The Sun Lakes bridge games on Tues Oct 6, Thurs Oct 8 and Sat Oct 10 will all be played in Lindsay Hall at the Sun Lakes United Methodist Church, 9248 E Riggs Road near the Robson Library. From Alma School Road, go west 1.4 miles on Riggs Road and turn right into the church parking lot just after the library. From I-10, go east on Riggs Road and turn left into the parking lot that is between the church and the Robson library. All morning and afternoon games will start at the regular times.
