Kate's newlywed year
From the biggest wedding of the decade, to the two-day honeymoon where Kate was spotting shopping at Tesco and William was back in the pilot's seat four days after the nuptials - we take a peek at the newlywed year of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
The couple ventured out from their honeymoon cottage in Wales to make a splash at only a few public appearances and a visit to Canada and the United States.
Fashion critics can't fault her for her consistently perfect choices at every occasion - never stealing the spotlight from her husband, but undoubtedly making even Hollywood celebrities look like hags next to her.
How does Kate do it? It's a bit tricky to put a finger on her too-thin body, shiny hair, dimpled smile and support for British fashion. She's got the knack.
A knack for mixing high and low, covering up when it's important and showing a little leg for more casual appearances. Always with a smile on her face, always looking like she's having fun.
Royal watchers, of course, are waiting for a baby, although I heard on TLC that the couple have a four year lease on their honeymoon cottage. Doubt the palace would allow them to bring a precious bundle home there.
We'll be watching.

Posted on 03/29/2010 2:17:12 PM PDT by MinorityRepublican
A Roman Catholic archbishop who resigned in 2002 over a sex and financial scandal involving a man has written a memoir that describes how he struggled with being gay.
Archbishop Rembert Weakland, former head of the Milwaukee archdiocese, "is up front about his homosexuality in a church that preferred to ignore gays," Publisher's Weekly wrote in a review Monday.
The book, "A Pilgrim in a Pilgrim Church: Memoirs of a Catholic Archbishop," is set to be released in June and is described by the publisher as a self-examination by Weakland of his "psychological, spiritual and sexual growth."
The Vatican says that men with "deep-seated" attraction to other men should not be ordained.
Weakland stepped down quickly after Paul Marcoux, a former Marquette University theology student, revealed in May 2002 that he was paid $450,000 to settle a sexual assault claim he made against the archbishop more than two decades earlier. The money came from the archdiocese.
Marcoux went public at the height of anger over the clergy sex abuse crisis, when Catholics and others were demanding that dioceses reveal the extent of molestation by clergy and how much had been confidentially spent to settle claims.
Weakland denied ever assaulting anyone. He apologized for concealing the payment.
In an August 1980 letter that was obtained by the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, Weakland said he was in emotional turmoil over Marcoux and signed the letter, "I love you."
"During the last months, I have come to know how strained I was, tense, pensive, without much joy," Weakland wrote. "I felt like the world's worst hypocrite. So gradually I came back to the importance of celibacy in my life."
The revelations rocked the Milwaukee archdiocese, which Weakland had led since 1977. But when he publicly read a letter of apology for the scandal, Milwaukee parishioners gave him a a standing ovation.
The Archdiocese of Milwaukee released a public statement last week alerting local Catholics that the book is soon to be published and that it deals in part with Weakland's relationship with Marcoux and the scandal.
"Some people will be angry about the book, others will support it," the archdiocese said.
Weakland, who has been a hero for liberal Catholics because of his work on social justice and other issues, will also address in the memoirs his failures to stop abusive priests.
In a videotaped deposition released last November, Weakland admitted returning guilty priests to active ministry without alerting parishioners or police.
Advocates for abuse victims said that Weakland's cover up of his own sexual activity was part of a pattern of secrecy that included concealing the criminal behavior of child molesters.
The archbishop did not respond Monday to an e-mail request for comment. Weakland, a Benedictine, plans to move to St. Mary's Abbey in Morristown, N.J., this summer.
U.S. Catholics have long debated whether the priesthood had become a predominantly gay vocation. Estimates vary from 25 percent to 50 percent, according to a review of research on the issue by the Rev. Donald Cozzens, author of "The Changing Face of the Priesthood."
Cozzens, a former seminary rector, said in an interview that Weakland's acknowledgment of his sexual orientation "cuts into the denial that relatively few priests or bishops are gay."
But Russell Shaw, a former spokesman for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, questioned whether the book would have much impact.
"That one controversial archbishop acknowledges what everybody's known for several years," Shaw said, "I don't think that's going to make any big difference."
He was Annibale Bugnini's right hand man, when he created the new Mass. He was the only other person to attend all the tests.
So does George Takei!
It seems blatantly obvious that the Catholic church environment attracts homosexuals and pedophiles into their priesthood.
Hardly breaking news.
What a fruit cup
Bingo! That's the only reason I posted this article. While I respect the church and its traditions, it's clear to me that the current Pope needs to resign and that they need to allow priests to marry so they can clean house of homosexuals and pedophiles.
Can someone who is Catholic please explain to me how it is that if you are celebate, you can be either straight or gay. It seems that if you give up sex, then it is a non issue.
The Catholic Church needs a better vetting process for priests, or demand that they marry and not other men. :)
Logic dictates that the celibate priesthood is a good hiding-place for men who are disinterested in women, and want to to avoid answering questions about their lack of interest in the fairer sex.
The RCC hardly ignores gays. Every male music director I've ever met is obviously homosexual. Homosexual men were one of the few demographics able to 'handle' the celibacy requirement to be a priest - no sexual attraction to women, no temptation to marry. Going after other boys and young men, however...
"Social Justice": A term, like "gay", whose meaning has been perverted.
I think that probably the worst single influence on the Church in America was Cardinal Bernardin, because he was extremely bright and subtle about his constant undermining of the Church. He led a lot of bishops astray.
Rembert Weakland did a considerable damage too, but frankly the guy was a jerk, not much good at hiding his dissident views. It was no surprise when that scandal broke, because it had long been pretty obvious what he was.
But at least it enabled the Vatican to force him to step down.

Yep, and would it suprise you that the convents have a statisically larger number of lesbians than the average population, for the exact same reasons. Though because the ways a woman's sex drive differs from men's the number of abuse cases of priests (men) vs. nuns (women) is lower, thoguh it is still a very serious problem.
Delbarton, the highschool this Abbey is at, sent out a letter last year, that he Wasn't going to be there. I wonder if he is after all.
I ain't a Roman Catholic, nor (obviously) do I agree with all their theology, but I must denounce this as a red herring. Lutherans, who do allow ministers to marry, see about the same rate of problems in their ministry.
>> Logic dictates that the celibate priesthood is a good hiding-place for men who are disinterested in women, and want to to avoid answering questions about their lack of interest in the fairer sex.
SnakeDoc <<
And Nunneries for the same reason for the opposite sex.
I'd bet dollars to doughnut holes that you're not Catholic.

Are the Percentages higher for Non-married Lutheran Priests vs. Married Lutheran priests? I would liek to see som raw data if you have it.
Yeah, just think about all the rumors about Jesus.
< /s >
Yes, apparently you need to educate the Pope himself on his needs!
Indifference to women does not necessarily spell gay.
"Rule One..."
Sorry, but Protestants don't get to shut down the monasteries twice.
I thinkt he Catholic Church needs a better process for allowing men to become priests, something like a "Ghey test".
They are fine keeping the celebate single policy, but if they do so they will need to watch the prospective priests like hawks. I am not sure what test would be 100%, but soemthign coule be figured out, either that or force them all to take drugs to kill their sex drives to "help them out" with keeping their covenant with God and Church.
The question is, what do they do about it? Do they cover it up like this example?
No it isn't obvious....
4000 Protestants church leaders are exiled annually for Dilldallying with their Flock....Male and female..
Classic I-know-better-than-God liberal do-gooder thinking.
A sizable minority in the gay camp (is that redundant?) like to portray "gay Christs." They can't imagine seeing the events of the New Testament through any other eyes.
>> Indifference to women does not necessarily spell gay. <<
True, but how can you argue that the Priesthood is 100% not a "hiding groud" for closeted homosexuals who will eventually fall and predate upon the choir boys?
unfortunately, men like this also also, in turn, force scores of young boys and parishners to also struggle with their gayness.
Hmmm. I wonder if it could be made easier, would it be less valuable?
It is the latter half of your statement that is the problem. The early church realized that a man with homosexual tendencies should not be ordained, but the "modern" church bought into the idea that "if they are celibate, gender orientation doesn't matter".....what they failed to realize is that someone sufficiently mentally ill to be homosexual is unlikely to have sufficient self-control to be chaste. But in the meantime, a lot of queer priests got into the church's bureaucratic infrastructure. It is going to take a long and persistent effort to dig them out and get rid of them.
The operative word there is "exiled". If the Protestants make six-figure payments out of the church funds, they do a better job of hiding it.
Until fairly recently it was very unchic...shameful...to be homosexual.It was something to be hidden.Given that a homosexual couldn't get "married" until a few years ago and couldn't "come out" until 10-20 years ago the priesthood was one of the "logical" places places for a Catholic male homosexual to go...particularly the ones who liked boys.
Today,homosexuals can live openly,*proudly*,get "married",adopt kids,find young boys on the internet.No need for any of them to enter the priesthood.Couple that with the fact that normal men just can't agree to live without a woman's companionship *for life* you understand why the typical seminary in this country (and,perhaps,Europe as well) is ordaining one or two priests a year.
If we don't allow priests to marry....*soon*...priests of *any* "persuasion" will be scarcer than hens' teeth.
Within *our* lifetimes!
Without the hierarchical structure that the RCC has, one mechanism for cover ups is absent there. Of course the congregation could be pro-gay, which produces another problem.
IF you give it up it is a non-issue.
It is a non issue. The real problem is homosexuality which is a grave disorder and promises of celibacy don't seem to work for them. They may have good intentions but then the disordered personality takes over. That is why the church is now being diligent about keeping them out of the priesthood altogether.
Married ministers and teachers offend in greater percentage than all Catholic priests but because the Catholic Church is the enemy of the Communist state of the world, every imperfection is screamed throughout the world.
A comparison would be all the awful things that were said about Bush that the media kept quiet and now everything anti-Obama whether truth or not is a great crisis and Republicans are blamed.
Christ was an extraordinary man ... a man without sin, the one Son of God. Rumors are irrelevant, though I am quite sure there were people that thought many horrible things about Christ. They crucified Him.
But, He was blameless and sinless. Priests are not. Priests are just men (apparently to varying degrees) ... with all the proclivities, perversions, weaknesses, and sinfulness that that abound throughout society. Heterosexual priests no doubt have lustful and sinful thoughts, if not actions, about women.
The fact remains that priestly celibacy provides a good cover for a closet homosexual ... and apparently that convenient cover has not gone unnoticed by the closeted. It would not surprise me in the least if the proportion of homosexuals in the priesthood exceeded that of regular society, or at least of non-celibate Cathlics, Christians or clergy.
>> or force them all to take drugs to kill their sex drives to help them out with keeping their covenant with God and Church.
Hmmm. I wonder if it could be made easier, would it be less valuable? <<
Could consider the chemical equivalent of a cold shower. I knew someone who had to take simular drugs for a prostate condition, essentially a "chemical neutering", before they had to have surgery on it, his sex drive went down to pretty much zero, he stopped lusting after other women and ended up developing several hobbies he soon dropped after he was able to get off of it. Sometimes he laments the "refound focus" the drugs gave him that he lost after stopping taking it.
Hey! Ricky Martin just did the same thing on another thread. What a coinkidink.
Exactly Doc....sin likes to hide...in this case in full view of the audiance under a deceptive mask.
My Jewish husband is more CATHOLIC than this FREAKY CREEP!!
Can you point me to your source on that?
"Gay" is a social construct that goes far beyond homosexuality. It includes things like "gay pride" and love of musical comedies (not that there is anything wrong with that). The church believed that you can have homosexual proclivities, lead a chaste life, and be in holy orders. That has proved to be a huge costly blunder.
However, when someone declares himself "Gay" he is placing himself in direct defiance of church teachings.
It is sad that this man was surrounded by Jesus (or at least the outward articles of faith), and yet he is/was lost..! (and I'll bet his story isn't alone)!

Temperature control of the C. elegans circadian clock Daily (circadian) rhythms control multiple aspects of human behavior and physiology (e.g. sleep, body temperature) and disruption of these rhythms can either cause or affect the severity of most neurological disorders such as stroke and Alzheimer's disease. These circadian rhythms are driven by clocks in our brain and body that can be entrained by daily light and/or temperature cycles. In depth analyses have identified the physiological mechanisms comprising these light-entrained clocks in humans and most model organisms studied, but how temperature information controls these clocks is unclear. Our research has established the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans as a powerful genetic model system to study temperature control of the clock. In this proposed research, we will use genetic and genomic approaches as well as real-time imaging in C elegans to investigate the molecular mechanisms and neural pathways underlying temperature control ofthe circadian clock.
Specific Aim 1 will develop a new real-time imaging system for recording and quantifying circadian rhythmicity in behavior and gene expression in freely moving C elegans. This imaging will be useful for mutant analysis and genetic screening of clock mutants.
Specific Aim 2 will define the sensory neuron types that transmit temperature information to the clock(s). This will aid in understanding the sensory pathways that process and integrate environmental information to the clock.
Specific Aim 3 will define the molecular components ofthe clock. These components are expected to encode for core-clock genes and components that process temperature information from the core-clock to clock-output genes.
Specific Aim 4 will identify circadian genes expressed in single sensory neuron types with mRNAsequencing. Identification ofthe complete set of sensory genes regulated by the C elegans clock will determine the behavioral consequences of differential expression of genes that process environmental information to the clock. Understanding the inner workings ofthe circadian clock in great depth and the impacts on circadian time keeping should provide us with new avenues of treatment or prevention of neurobehavioral consequences of disrupted circadian timing.

Boy convicted of killing white supremacist father
Associated Press
RIVERSIDE, Calif. (AP) – A boy who was only 10 when he fatally shot his white supremacist father was convicted Monday of second-degree murder by a judge who said the child knew what he did was wrong.
Riverside Superior Court Judge Jean Leonard weighed the severity of the crime versus whether the amount of abuse and neglect suffered by the boy, now 12, played a significant role in the slaying of 32-year-old Jeff Hall, a regional leader of the National Socialist Movement.
Leonard noted the boy lay in bed, waited for the right moment and shot his dad at point-blank range with the "bad gun" _ a .357 Magnum _ while he slept on a sofa in the family home.
"This was not a complex killing," said Leonard, who heard the case without a jury. "He thought about the idea and shot his father."
The boy's stepmother told authorities that Hall had hit, kicked and yelled at his son for being too loud or getting in the way. Hall and the boy's biological mother had previously gone through a divorce and custody dispute in which each had accused the other of child abuse. She initially told authorities she had killed Hall but then quickly retracted her statement. She was not charged in the case.
Defense attorney Matthew Hardy said because of the abuse his client learned it was acceptable to kill people who were a threat. The boy thought if he shot his dad, the violence would end, Hardy said.
Also at issue were the father's racist beliefs.
Hall, who said he believed in a white breakaway nation, ran for a seat on the local water board in 2010 in a move that disturbed many residents in the recession-battered suburbs southeast of Los Angeles. The day before his death, he held a meeting of the neo-Nazi group at his home.
Hall had previously taken the boy on a U.S.-Mexico border patrol trip and showed him how to use a gun, according to court documents.
Prosecutors maintained Hall's white supremacist beliefs had nothing to do with the crime. They noted the boy had a history of violence that dated back to kindergarten when he stabbed a teacher with a pencil.
But Leonard said in her decision that the white supremacist beliefs did have an effect on the boy and "gave him thoughts normal kids don't have." Hardy maintains the boy isn't racist.
The challenge now for the legal system is to find the best place where the boy can be rehabilitated. Prosecutors said it's likely the boy, who is not being identified by The Associated Press because of his age, will most likely be placed in state custody, making him the youngest person currently in the custody of California's corrections department.
The blonde-haired boy, who wears glasses, showed no emotion after the verdict was read.
"He knew it was coming," Hardy said. "He's focused on trying to get it over with. Go someplace where he can get some help. He wants to be a normal kid and wants to have a normal life."
Hardy said he hoped the boy would not be sent to a juvenile lockup but rather be placed in a private facility that offers therapy, medical treatment and schooling.
"I just don't want him warehoused some place," said Hardy, who plans to appeal the judge's verdict. A sentencing hearing was set for Feb. 15. The boy could be jailed until he is 23.
Prosecutor Michael Soccio spoke to the boy after the hearing finished and said he wanted the child to know that his office wasn't "against him as a person. We want him to get help."
"He's a community problem in terms of what do we do about somebody that young," Soccio said outside of court. "It's an unbelievable case and a very difficult one for everybody involved and it will be all along."

Basic Confidence predictors of career decision-making self-efficacy.
The extent to which Basic Confidence Scales predicted career decision-making self-efficacy was studied in a sample of 627 undergraduate students. Six confidence variables accounted for 49% of the variance in career decision-making self-efficacy. Leadership confidence was the most important, but confidence in science, mathematics, writing, using technology, and cultural sensitivity all contributed significant incremental variance. There were some differences as a function of race and gender, but leadership confidence was the most significant predictor in all sub-groups. Implications for educational and career counseling are discussed.
One of the most visible areas of research in career development and counseling today is applications of Bandura's (1977) self-efficacy theory to the understanding and treatment of problems in both personal/social and career development. In particular, there have now been hundreds of studies investigating the importance of self-efficacy (often referred to as confidence) to educational and career development with respect to career-related behaviors. Such behaviors have included mathematics self-efficacy (Lopez, Lent, Brown, & Gore, 1997), self-efficacy for occupational tasks taken from the Dictionary of Occupational Titles (Rooney & Osipow, 1992), career decision-making self-efficacy (Luzzo, 1993; Taylor & Popma, 1990), and career search efficacy (Solberg, Good, Fischer, Brown, & Nord, 1995).
Because of its importance to career decision making and career interventions, career decision-making self-efficacy has received probably the most research attention relative to other domains of career behavior. Career decision-making self-efficacy was originally defined by Taylor and Betz (1983) as the individual's belief that he or she can successfully complete tasks necessary to making career decisions. Career decision-making self-efficacy has been measured using the task domains of accurate self-appraisal, gathering occupational information, goal selection, planning, and problem solving. Probably because of its centrality to successful educational and career outcomes, factors related to career decision-making self-efficacy and the design and evaluation of interventions have received extensive attention from researchers (Betz & Luzzo, 1996).
Research indicates that career decision-making self-efficacy is related to other indices of adaptive career decision making. For example, there is ample evidence that career decision-making self-efficacy is inversely related to career indecision (e.g., Bergeron & Romano, 1994; Betz, Klein, & Taylor, 1996; Taylor & Popma, 1990). Career decision-making self-efficacy has also been shown to be related to high versus low vocational identity (Robbins, 1985), more adaptive career beliefs (Luzzo & Day, 1999), fear of career commitment (Betz & Serling, 1993), and career exploratory behavior (Blustein, 1989). Peterson (1993a, 1993b) found that career decision-making self-efficacy was related to academic persistence versus dropout in underprepared college students and that it surpassed all other variables as a predictor of academic and social integration of college students. Other studies have suggested that career decision-making self-efficacy can be increased through verbal persuasion, one of Bandura's postulated four sources of efficacy information (Luzzo & Taylor, 1994), through attributional retraining (Luzzo, Funk, & Strang, 1996) and through a videotaped intervention designed to increase women's perceived career options (Foss & Slaney, 1986).
Bandura's (1977) formulations of self-efficacy theory include the postulate that increases in self-efficacy expectations relative to one domain should generalize, to some degree, to other domains. On the basis of this general statement, it would be possible to postulate statistically significant relationships among domain-specific measures of self-efficacy. Not surprisingly, then, scores on the Career Decision Self-Efficacy Scale (CDMSE; Betz, Klein, & Taylor, 1996) have been found to be moderately related to other measures of self-efficacy. For example, Betz and Serling (1993) found statistically significant correlations of .53, .21, and .29 with the Verbal, Quantitative, and Aesthetic subscales of Osipow and Rooney's (Osipow, Temple, & Rooney, 1993; Rooney & Osipow, 1992) Task-Specific Occupational Self-Efficacy Scale (TSOSS) in a sample of 90 students. Betz and Klein (1996) reported correlations of .38, .37, and .26 between CDMSE scores and mathematics self-efficacy.
Given preliminary findings such as these, we postulated that career decision-making self-efficacy in college students may well be related to self-efficacy as it relates to the basic competencies required of the typical liberal arts education. Although we are not postulating causality, we suggest that there may be reciprocal influence of self-perceived academic competencies and career decision-making self-efficacy. Understanding the extent to which various educational competencies may be related to career decision-making self-efficacy could provide additional ideas for increasing career decision-making self-efficacy in college students through efforts to develop these educational competencies as well as directly targeted career self-efficacy interventions.
There are, for example, several academic areas considered essential for a general liberal arts education. The basic elements of the assessment of student achievement in general education include English, Mathematics, Science, and Social Science (Banta, 1992). Descriptions of a liberal arts education include the following components: "to use their own language effectively" and "to participate in advancing social consciousness" (cf. Pfnister, 1992, p. 1146). Other definitions of a liberal education include the concept of preparing the young person for the role of citizen and "free man" (Pfnister, 1992, p. 1147) or have emphasized the importance of leadership activities (Cress, Astin, Zimmerman-Oster, & Burkhardt, 2001; Sedlacek & Brooks, 1976). Comfort with using a computer has also been linked to positive outcomes in college students (Kuh & Hu, 2001; Lewis, Coursol, & Khan, 2001).
The present study was designed to evaluate the relationship of self-efficacy, or confidence, with respect to several domains considered essential to the goals of a general or liberal arts education to career decision-making self-efficacy. On the basis of previous research and scholarship, we selected for examination six domains representative of broad educational goals or emphases of a college education. These six basic confidence dimensions were Mathematics, Science, Using Technology, Writing, Leadership, and Cultural Sensitivity, the last of which was designed to reflect Pfnister's (1992) goal "to participate in advancing social consciousness" (p. 1146). We conducted regression analyses of the predictive efficacy of these competencies relative to career decision-making self-efficacy.
Participants and Procedure
Participants were 627 undergraduates enrolled in introductory psychology courses at a large, midwestern university. Students received course credit for their participation. All experiments were posted on the psychology department's Research Experience Program Web site, allowing students to select from a variety of experiments.
All but 4 participants indicated their gender, and the resulting break-down was 346 (55.5%) women and 277 (44.5%) men. In racial/ethnic composition, 80% of respondents indicated they were Caucasian, 9% African American, 6% Asian American/Pacific Islander, 2% Latino(a)/Hispanic, 1% multiracial, and 1% Native American. Only the African American subgroup was deemed large enough (n = 54) to analyze separately. Eighty percent of participants indicated they were freshmen, 13% sophomores, 5% juniors, and 1.4% seniors.
Participants were tested in groups of 25 to 60 in classrooms on the campus. They were given both oral and written instructions for completing the measures. After completing the measures, students were given a handout describing the purpose of the study and providing a list of counseling referrals should their participation cause them any kind of distress.
Expanded Skills Confidence Inventory (ESCI). The ESCI (Betz et al., 2003) measures self-efficacy, or confidence, with respect to 17 basic dimensions of vocational activity that are parallel to the Basic Interest Scales of the Strong Interest Inventory (SII; Harmon, Hansen, Borgen, & Hammer, 1994). Although the current (1994) version of the SII contains 25 Basic Interest Scales, economy of use and interpretation, as well as substantive import, led to the decision to develop confidence scales for many, but not all, of the 1994 Basic Interest Scales. Decisions regarding which Basic Confidence Scales to develop were based on the degree to which a Basic Interest (confidence) dimension is basic and important to many, rather than to only a few, occupational groups (e.g., Public Speaking, Writing, Leadership). Other scales were developed to reflect current trends in the labor market. Thus, the scales Using Technology, Creative Production, Cultural Sensitivity, Project Management, and Teamwork represent either emphases of the increasingly high-tech labor market or emphases within organizations that reflect the trend toward greater focus on interpersonal cooperation and diversity. The focus of the present study was on six of the Basic Confidence Scales: Mathematics, Science, Writing, Using Technology, Leadership, and Cultural Sensitivity.
These scales also represent five of the six Holland (1997) themes, Investigative (Science and Mathematics), Artistic (Writing), Social (Cultural Sensitivity), Enterprising (Leadership), and Conventional (Using Technology). Realistic was not represented, but of all the Holland themes, it tends to be associated most closely with occupations that do not require a college degree.
As with the Skills Confidence Inventory (Betz, Harmon, & Borgen, 1996), which was the prototype for the new inventory (i.e., ESCI), items for the Basic Confidence Scales were either activities (e.g., "Ride a horse") or school subjects (e.g., "Calculus"). Responses rated items using a 5-point scale ranging from no confidence at all (1) to complete confidence (5). For school subject items, respondents were asked to indicate their degree of confidence in completing the course successfully. Responses rated items using the same 5-point confidence continuum used with the Activities items. The inventory was developed with samples of 972 employed adults and 934 college students. Values of coefficient alpha for the final 10-item scales ranged from .80 to .94 (adults) and .84 to .94 (college students).
Career decision-making self-efficacy. The short form of the Career Decision Self-Efficacy Scale (CDMSE-SF; Betz, Klein, et al., 1996) was used as a measure of self-efficacy expectations for successfully completing tasks requisite to making good career decisions. The CDMSE-SF contains five subscales comprising 25 items measuring the five career choice competencies of Crites's (1978) model of career maturity: Self-Appraisal, Gathering Occupational Information, Goal Selection, Planning, and Problem-Solving. Responses rate items on a 5-point scale ranging from no confidence at all (1) to complete confidence (5). A total score is computed by summing scores for the 25 items; higher scores indicate greater levels of career decision-making self-efficacy. The CDMSE-SF has been shown to be psychometrically sound, with internal consistency reliabilities ranging from .73 (Self-Appraisal) to .83 (Goal Selection) for the 5-item subscales and .94 for the 25-item total score (Betz, Klein, et al., 1996).
Table 1 shows the correlations among the variables studied herein. As shown in the table, relationships varied in size from .14 (between Mathematics and Writing confidence) and .63 (Leadership and Cultural Sensitivity). Correlations of Basic Confidence Scales with career decision-making self-efficacy ranged from .35 (with Using Technology) to .59 (with Leadership).
Table 2 shows the results of multiple regression analyses predicting career decision-making self-efficacy using the six Basic Confidence Scales judged especially salient to the aims of a general, liberal arts-oriented college education. As shown, the six predictors all contributed significantly to the overall regression analysis, which accounted for 49% of the variance in career decision-making self-efficacy. The most important predictor was Leadership, although Cultural Sensitivity, Mathematics, Science, Using Technology, and Writing all contributed some independent variance. Overall, this first set of analyses indicated that the Basic Confidence Scales were important predictors of career decision-making self-efficacy.
Analyses within gender and race indicated significant differences in variance accounted for and in the important predictors within group. First, a statistically larger proportion of variance, 79% was accounted for in the sample of African Americans, versus the 44%, 46%, and 56% accounted for in women, European Americans, and men, respectively.
As with the total group regression analysis, leadership confidence was the most important predictor of career decision-making self-efficacy within all subgroups, but after leadership the important predictors differed by group. Confidence in cultural sensitivity was a significant predictor of career decision-making self-efficacy in women and European Americans but not in men or African Americans. For men, science confidence was next in importance after leadership, and for African Americans, using technology, mathematics, and science confidence (negatively) were next in importance. The negative beta weight for science suggests that it is acting as a suppressor variable (pulling out the variance associated with some other variable; Nunnally & Bernstein, 1994) because the bivariate correlation between science confidence and career decision-making self-efficacy in African Americans is positive (r = .40). Given the high correlation between math and science confidence in African Americans (.68), this might help to explain the suppressor effect. Thus, confidence in leadership and cultural sensitivity seem most important in women's and European Americans' career decision-making self-efficacy, whereas confidence in leadership and math/science/technology related variables seem most important for men and African Americans.
Although there were some ethnic and gender differences in which Basic Confidence Scales best predicted career decision-making self-efficacy, the overall percentages of variance accounted for were impressive. In the total group, six basic confidence predictors accounted for 49% of the variance in career decision-making self-efficacy, and within subgroups the percentages of variance accounted for ranged from 44% (women) to 79% (African Americans). Leadership confidence was the largest predictor for all groups. Confidence in cultural sensitivity was second in importance for women, and it was also important, along with confidence in science, for European Americans. Mathematics, science, and using technology were statistically significant predictors in all groups, but they were especially important for African Americans.
The importance of leadership confidence, especially to African Americans, is consistent with the model and research of Sedlacek and Brooks (1976; see also Sedlacek, 1999; Tracey & Sedlacek, 1984, 1985) showing that leadership experience is one of eight noncognitive variables critical to the academic success and persistence of African American students. More generally, the possible importance of self-efficacy expectations in the educational and career development of ethnic minority students is receiving increasing attention in the literature. Academic self-efficacy has been demonstrated to be related to persistence in college in studies by Gloria (1993) and Gloria, Robinson Kurpius, Hamilton, and Willson (1999). Whether or not the present findings concerning career decision-making self-efficacy may also be related to persistence may be an avenue for further research, given that African Americans' persistence in college continues to lag behind that of their White and Asian American counterparts (e.g., Gloria et al., 1999).
Clearly these data must be interpreted cautiously because this study did not use a causal design. Also, there may well be a general factor accounting for the moderate to strong correlations of all the Basic Confidence Scales with career decision-making self-efficacy. However, the fact that the Basic Confidence Scales themselves were not highly correlated (e.g., Writing and Using Technology correlated .19, and Writing and Mathematics .14) suggests that any general factor present does not encompass a range of basic activity areas.
Because these findings are not based on causal data, it cannot be said that programs that increase a student's confidence in the basic educational skills will increase career decision-making self-efficacy, or the reverse, but it may be hypothesized that students expressing concern with career indecision or lack of confidence in their career decision-making skills may also lack confidence in these basic academic skill areas. Because academic confidence has also been shown to be related to persistence in college, a focus on strengthening students' efficacy beliefs using efficacy interventions may prove doubly useful. Efficacy-based interventions are developed using the sources of efficacy information from Bandura's (1977) theory: performance accomplishments, vicarious learning, anxiety management, and social encouragement. Although there are other methods of attempting to increase career decision-making self-efficacy (see Betz & Luzzo, 1996), being aware of the possibility that in some cases it is related to low confidence in academic skills may prove useful for counselors and educators in collegiate settings or in high school settings, where the building blocks of both educational and career decisional confidence are established.

Feed to Bloom a Weanling....Questions
My colt is 3 1/2 months old and will be ready to wean about the end of August. He is AQHA registered, chestnut color, big for his age. He has shed about 60% of the baby fuzz.
What feeds are out there that could bloom this colt for possible shows this fall? About how long will it take to bloom him?
It has been a long time, but I have fed 'Equine Junior' (Purina) in the past. However, the feed dealer said that he sells more 'Strategy' to people that are blooming out their weanlings.
It would be hard for me to feed the mare and colt the same feed as the mare cannot handle high energy feeds. She is on straight oats and grass pasture with limited grazing.
