Roasted potatoes are good and all, but a roasted root vegetable medley is just as easy to make and a little bit fancy too. Substitute any root vegetable, including starchy potatoes, turnip, parsnip, celery root, or rutabaga. While the veggies are roasting, toss a garlic bulb or two into the pan at about the 30-minute mark—the result: easy, creamy garlic! Yum.
- Yield
- Serves 2 to 4
- 1 large carrot
- 1 large potato
- 1 large sweet potato
- 1 large beet
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
- Salt and pepper
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Cut the vegetables into 1⁄2"-wide spears and toss in a roasting pan with olive oil and herbs to coat. Keep the peels on; that's where the vitamins are.
- Roast for approximately 40 minutes, turning regularly until all sides have turned a golden brown and the fries are cooked straight through.

Jack White lines up three shows for June
Fresh off his week-starting Tonight Show appearance alongside Neil Young – who cut his new instamatic work A Letter Home using a vintage Voice-O-Graph machine at Third Man Records – Jack White, that label's owner, has announced a trio of Southern California dates coinciding with the release of his next solo album, Lazaretto.
That disc drops June 10, the same night the occasional Raconteurs guitarist and Dead Weather drummer (seen above at a December gig with Brendan Benson) will play the Fonda Theatre in Hollywood. After that, he heads across L.A. to headline the Mayan on June 11 before shifting to Pomona, where he performs June 12 at the Fox Theater.
These gigs are being squeezed in between two festival sets, June 7 at NYC's Governors Ball and June 14 at Bonnaroo.
Tickets – $60 for the Fonda or the Mayan, $50 for the Fox – go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday, May 16. There's a two-ticket limit at all stops, and the Pomona date looks to be a will-call-only pickup situation.
Lazaretto, meanwhile, will arrive not only in the usual digital formats and on 180-gram vinyl, but also in an "Ultra LP" edition that includes an array of unique features, including different mixes than the digital versions and two exclusive tracks hidden beneath the center labels, one of which plays at 78 rpm, the other at 45 speed. It also employs dual-groove technology, so that either an electric or acoustic intro for the track "Just One Drink" will be heard, depending on where the needle is dropped.

More than 10 years post-conflict, most Liberians still live in poverty and lack access to quality, affordable healthcare. Patients often walk long distances for care and risk being turned away due to a lack of staff or medical supplies. Malnutrition, HIV/AIDS, Malaria and other diseases are rampant, and Liberia's maternal and infant mortality are among the highest in the world - nearly 15% of children die by their first birthday, and pregnant women face a 1 in 24 chance of dying giving birth.
Our all-Liberian staff offer integrated healthcare services to 17,000 Liberians per year. From immunizations, emergency care & Malaria treatment, we provide our patients with quality, affordable care. By training midwives with the Ministry of Health and providing pre/postnatal care and family planning, we help to improve maternal health in the area. We also act as a community educator and resource to provide families with health education on prevention, hygiene, and sanitation.
IHI not only provides care, resources, and education to promote the health and wellbeing of its community, it also serves as a model for locally driven, internationally supported grassroots development. We know that when provided with opportunities for health, people can and do take ownership of the improvement of their lives and communities. Your donation will help us to ensure that area residents continue to receive quality, affordable healthcare and our staff continue to earn a living wage.

For most of us, talk of economic downturns and recession means a flight to financial safety. We batten down the hatches while the storm rages around us. For investors, while this strategy means that they don't lose anything, they don't make anything either. So the possibility of making money in a falling market with little risk can be intoxicating.
Absolute return funds claim to offer this elusive prize: good performance for low risk in any kind of economic climate. They aim to make you money regardless of whether the markets rise or fall. But actually achieving this is a very tall order, and most absolute return funds have struggled to deliver.
Although they only burst on to the scene three years ago, thanks to a change in derivatives regulation, the variety of absolute return funds out there today is daunting. The goal of all of them, however, is the same: to make steady, positive returns, whether the markets are falling or rising.
Scottish Widows Investment Partnership's Absolute Return Bond Fund( www.swip.com/absolute_return) and Threadneedle's Absolute Return Bond Fund ( www.threadneedle.co.uk), for example, try to protect their funds by investing only in bonds and cash. They are far less volatile than their peers, but the performance enjoyed by their investors is also limited.
The Swip Absolute Return Bond Fund aims to deliver, over the long term, the equivalent of just 1.5 per cent per annum above the Bank of England base rate, after fees and taxes. "The fund aims to offer a low-risk strategy, using bonds and cash to produce positive absolute returns," says Craig Inches, manager of the Swip fund. "It is a fund for lower-risk investors looking for cash-level returns, but with exposure to bond markets."
He acknowledges that the returns aren't great compared to direct investment in equities, but says that investors must be realistic about the relationship between risk and reward. "Investors assume that equities provide higher returns," he says. "But they come with higher levels of risk. And if you have a bad year, it can be a very bad year." Over 10 years, he suggests, absolute bonds can offer returns that are "not that far away"from equities expectations, but with a small fraction of the risk.
Some absolute funds spread themselves across a huge range of asset classes in an attempt to reduce the effect of volatility in one sector or region. The more diversified your fund is (the thinking goes), the lower the risk – if one sector drops, you can fall back on others to minimise the loss. For example, the Mellon Global Absolute Intrepid fund, run by Newton ( www.newton.co.uk), has holdings in UK, US and Japanese equities, as well as fixed interest and cash. According to Mellon, the fund has returned 95.98 per cent over the past five years, against a sector average of 64.96 per cent.
Other absolute funds employ more complex approaches in a bid to offer less risky returns to investors. In 2004, a regulation overhaul meant that regulated funds could use "short-selling" techniques, allowing funds to gain from drops in markets as well as rises.
Managers "short" the market by borrowing stock, selling it, and then buying it back once it falls. Funds that use this technique tend to have the most reliable performance, says Andrew Wilson, head of investments for the financial adviser Towry Law. "The manager has to be a good one, though, and BlackRock's UK Absolute Alpha Fund ( www.blackrock.co.uk), run by Mark Lyttleton, is one of the best," he says. Lyttleton's fund has returned 12.5 per cent over the past year, during which time the FTSE 100 has fallen more than 5 per cent.
Although the FSA won't allow managers to disclose information on their short positions because of the potential damage it could do to those companies, Lyttleton's top 10 long positions include easyJet, BAE Systems, and the Mediterranean property development company Dolphin Capital. BAE, for example, has seen its shares rise by more than 8 per cent over the past year, even as the markets have been falling.
In all their various guises, absolute return funds are aimed at cautious investors looking for low-risk funds to form the foundation of their portfolios, and investments can be made from as little as £50 per month. But the verdicts on most absolute funds have been far from positive.
"Absolute return funds have frankly been an embarrassment," Andrew Wilson warns. "They have almost uniformly failed to deliver – along with their close cousins, target return funds. They may have diminished risks, but they have almost entirely evaporated returns at the same time."
He also warns that assessing a fund's performance against others is virtually impossible because they are all so different. There is no absolute return sector like UK All Companies or Cautious Managed sectors, and absolute return funds are benchmarked against a variety of different sectors based on the underlying holdings. This makes it very difficult to determine decent performance because the funds are all measured against different yardsticks. And investing in absolute returns will usually match other, higher-yielding vehicles, often with an initial fee of 5 per cent and annual management charges of 1.5 per cent or more.
Meanwhile, investors are also expecting the best of both worlds when it comes to performance and risk, adds Philippa Gee of the financial adviser Torquil Clark. "Investors have become disillusioned by absolute return funds because of poor performance," she says. "But they don't make the connection between returns and risk. You can't have everything, but investors expect more than they are getting from absolute funds. They also assume an extra level of security which is not necessarily there."
"Investors just don't need these funds to protect themselves from volatility in the markets," says Wilson. "By using the correct asset allocation, investors can manage their investments in difficult periods without resorting to absolute return funds."
"Those who are concerned about the effect of a downturn in the economy and a bumpy rise for the markets should put 30-40 per cent of their investments in cash, and then look at spreading their investments in equities," adds Gee. "The golden rule is not to invest in a name or trend, but to invest in what is right for you as an individual."
The experts' favourite absolute return funds
"Investors become fixated on positive returns when stock markets are falling around their ears," says Keith Thompson of financial advisers Blackadder. "Absolute return funds fill a niche in the private investor marketplace. Providing that investors understand their limitations, these funds can give peace of mind that they should provide steady, consistent, positive returns for the cautious investor (as long as the fund manager delivers). Absolute return funds sound like the ideal solution, but these funds are likely to underperform a rapidly rising market."
He notes that the majority of managers have not met their fund objectives over the last year, and he urges investors to choose carefully. "I prefer the BlackRock UK Absolute Alpha, Insight Diversified Target Return, SWIP's Absolute Return Bond and the Arch Cru Income Portfolio funds," he says. "I use each fund in different proportions to cover a wide range of asset classes.
"But the success of these funds is highly dependent on the fund manager's skill. In fact, this may be one asset class where investors would do well to follow the fund manager in the future rather than the fund itself."
John Davey, a research analyst for the investment adviser Bestinvest, also recommends the BlackRock UK Absolute Alpha fund, and adds Dexion Trading, a "macro" hedge fund, so-called because it aims to profit from changes in global economies. "The volatile environment we are currently seeing should benefit macro managers, who have the biggest arsenal of markets and instruments to trade," he says.
He says that Thames River Hedge + is worth considering too. Though one is always warned that past performance is not an indicator of future success, he notes that "the fund's performance over the last year has been strong, and was driven by three of the underlying managers being short of sub-prime."

Please Help A Lady Out.
I've been lurking the board (and loving it) for about the last yr waiting patiently until I paid my 2007 Caliber off to start shopping for a RAM truck..
The day has come and I have a truck picked out at my dealership. It's a 2012 RAM Express regular cab.. It's obviously tough to find a 2012 with the build you would want. Basically all that's out there here in Wisconsin for 2012 regular cabs is a model that MSRP'S at 30,585. Problem is, it doesn't have the options I would normally have built.. Things I would want that it doesn't have are - Pwr & Remote Entry Group - Manual Rear Sliding Window -Spray In Bedliner - 3.92 Axle Ratio.
The truck I'm looking at and dealing on only has Anti-Spin Differential Rear Axle and Class IV Receiver Hitch that I would order and want.. Options the truck has that I don't need or want are - ST Popular Equipment Group ($750) and the Chrome Clads for (400)
We are at the wheeling and dealing stage and mostly by phone.. I first started at the dealership where I purchased my caliber.. The MSRP of the 2012 is 30,585 I put on offer in online for 20,500 lol.. I knew I was offering way under what they could do especially just starting out dealing.. well I get an email back saying they could do 24, 500 - i laughed like they did at my original offer.. long story short I dealed with them and got the price down to 22,000. Not really liking their attitude and my buying experience with them and my first go around with the caliber purchase was the usual BS a noob like me could expect and I was taken for a ride with my sub-prime credit rating. at least that 6 yr 410 dollar a month nightmare is over.
Not liking their attitude I call another dealership and I get a great sales guy off the bat... long story short at this dealership is.. I used my dads employee discount card and with that the trucks e,employee discount price was 26,937 and their is also a 3,000 dealership incentive.. now the problem is we're still at around 24,000 and the other dealership could do 22,000 and I didn't even use the employee discount card. My sales guy without talking to the manager said he should have no problem beating that price, so cool. last night he said he thinks there is room to move 500 to 1000 below the other dealerships price of 22,000.
So now we're talking around 21,000 for the 30,585 MSRP price truck.. Do you y'all think I did ok dealing and coming to a price.. have to remember this is not a truck I would order but one I could live with for some time if the price is to good to pass up..
Now I got a brainy idea after reading the 2013 forum section on here late last night.. Lets build the 2013 truck the way I'd want it and see what the price would be.. Well it comes out to Invoice price of 29,838 and MSRP price of 32,275. My price with employee discount I believe would be like 3 or 5% under invoice and then w/e rebates and such there is would come off that..
I've rambled long enough and here is where I could really use all yours help and opinions..
Do I go option Number one and take the truck I could live with if they can go down to around 21,000.. I don't mind the color (mineral gray) but it would be probably my 3rd choice.. I would also have to trade my caliber in. 2007 with 78,000 miles.. just a basic model.. no power windows or cruise. does have ac and cd player lol.. I can't imagine they give me much more than 4,000 trade in.
Or do I build my own at the price I mentioned above.. use the employee discount, rebates, and sell my car privately?
option #2 will cost more but, will be a yr newer (I'm not tooo big on 1st yr models or makeovers but, my caliber was in 2007 and its been great) Option 2 would have all the options I would want and none I don't which is nice I guess and might help resale or when it would come time to trade in.. being a regular cab my truck will need all the help it can get for resell..
That's it guys and gals.. I would love and would much appreciate all thoughts/opinions.. I will keep you updated and if I do purchase option #1 truck I will have pictures on Thursday to share..
Have a great day!
I would go with the truck that will make you happy. As long as it is not stretching you too far with the payment.
Getting a good price on a truck is nice, but finding the truck you love is even better. IMHO.
I guess you asked the dealers if they could find you a 2012 anywhere with the options you want, to see if they could transfer it in?
+1^ If you have the luxury of waiting, I would order one the with the options and configuration you want/need.
Sounds like you have done your homework and did a good job negotiating to me. I think the price you got on the 2012 is probably a pretty good one. My biggest question now is how much could you realistically be in the 2013 for? I guess the biggest factor there is what rebates and incentives are available. It more or less comes down to how much is the difference between the truck you like and could live with and the truck that's exactly what you want. Of course, the price and payment is a factor for most of us but you should also think about the fact that you will likely be living with this truck for several years. Do you want to like it or love it, lol? I wouldn't worry too much about the 2013 being the first year of the model. It was really more of a mild refresh than a total redesign. Good luck and keep us updated as to what you decide.
Thanks much for your input, 32!
I test drove the truck last night and enjoyed the ride and all and I think I could definitely live with it for a few years especially if you guys think the price of 21,000 if I can get it for that is to good to pass up. On the other hand I'm torn because I could have the exact 2013 build truck I would want for about guessing 3 grand more and it would be a yr newer.
Price kinda matters to me as I like getting the best deal and with my credit still not up to par mostly because of an ex-leaching boyfriend I was stupid enough to keep around for the last 6 yrs.
I've been looking around at every dealership and calling within 100 miles of Milwaukee and there is really nothing out there in a 2012 express regular cab that has all the important things to me.
Thanks again for your help and I look forward to anybody else's before I have to pull the trigger in the next day or so one way or another.
I plan to run the truck until it dies or until I would need a quad cab.. Yeah I'm not too worried about the 2013 refresh as it would pretty much all be under warranty for the first few yrs and I had really great luck with my first yr caliber. I'm going to miss my caliber lol.
I will definitely keep you guys updated over the next couple days and I really appreciate all the great input so far!
long after the feel good part of the price goes away, you still have to live with the truck without the options you want. sounds to me like you should be able to step up a model or two, bighorn or outdoorsman and get between 9 or 10 grand off,a 2012 model, with negotiating, then use your employee discount and get a 35000.00 dollar truck for around 24000.00. the more expensive the sticker price is, the more room to play with the price. i would pass on the first truck and be patient and get one that you makes feel good for years to come. i have an 11 and still smile when i get in it.
Options are great ..... But its up to you at what you want in the truck ....
Plus if you go there in cash, and this all that I have ..... They will work with you ( that what I have done and had remarkable results )
Plus waiting a bit also wouldnt hurt and you might get a better deal ....
If I do go ahead tomorrow I think I'm now lol - Leaning more towards option one if they will give me the truck for 21,000.. That's almost 10 grand off the 30,585 MSRP price and that seems pretty good for a low end model truck. It does have the most important feature I wanted and that's the Anti-Spin Differential Rear Axle... I can live another couple yrs without power windows, i've done it for 6 already lol. Color is Mineral gray and I'm pretty fond of that color but not my #1 choice but close. 3.92 axle would be nice but can do just fine with the stock 3.55.
I could drive it for a couple yrs and then maybe sell/ trade it and look at the 2014 or 15's.. I shouldn't be upside down in the loan especially if I stick extra money to the loan when I have it.
If they low-ball me on my trade in do you guys think I have some power to have them throw in a bed-liner or maybe tint the windows some to lol. Maybe a couple three or four hundred dollars in free oil changes to lol :33:
Thanks again everybody for all the help and keep the thoughts coming if you want!

The recent storms have caused runoff from my animal feeding operation. What should I do?
Rate This FAQ
The rain and snow of the last few weeks have been a welcome sight in much of our drought-ridden state. However, the precipitation has also brought about tragedies and challenges that have land and homeowners scrambling. In many areas, the amount of precipitation exceeded the 24-hour/25-year storm event.
Because of the precipitation, many farmers and ranchers are now dealing with runoff from animal feeding operations. Owners and operators should be aware that several scenarios can occur. Consider this information.
- Imminent discharge. In this situation, discharge has not yet occurred, but will likely occur within a short time if ignored. This generally happens when liquid or solid manure storages are nearing capacity or when manure has potential to run off an application field. In response, owner/operators should attempt to prevent the release of manure. If this is not possible, options include: adding soil to the berm, increasing the dam's elevation, beginning an emergency utilization of manure by pumping it onto fields at acceptable rates, stopping all additional flow (waterers, flushing systems, etc.) to the storage, calling a pumping contractor, preventing surface water from entering the storage and maintaining grassland near the storage for emergency manure application. Initiate these activities before storages exceed their temporary storage level.
- Potential runoff from the application field is another problem. This could result from unexpected rains during the field application of manure. Again, try to prevent the release of manure to neighboring areas. To do this you can stop additional manure application, contain the manure on the field by creating a temporary diversion or berm and if possible, prevent further runoff by incorporating the manure.
- Pollution in progress. In this case, the storage or manure handling system is actively discharging. It is important to quickly stop the flow and minimize the discharge's impact on the environment by doing the following: stop the flow into the pipe, pit or liquid storage; prevent additional discharge by turning off the recycle flushing system, close valves controlling outflows to prevent a siphon effect; dig a holding area or construct a berm to contain discharge waters; repair defective components such as berm leaks caused by animals; trap or remove animals and fill holes with compacted clay soil. Permanent repair of storage problems may require consulting someone who is experienced in manure storage design and installation.
- Pollution discovered after the fact. This occurs when s several days have passed before a discharge is discovered. Because the discovery was delayed, environmental impact may be increased. Thus, response should be swift to minimize damage. Stop additional discharge; contain spilled manure; attempt to apply spilled manure on cropland; notify agencies and local authorities; and assess the environmental impact of fish kills, surface water pollution, well water or groundwater impact, as well as the amount and duration of the manure released. If manure must be applied on fields, increase the application setback distance from water sources (rivers, streams, ponds, irrigation conveyance ditches, etc).
An emergency preparedness and response plan should be in place to mitigate the current or future discharge of manure and excess water. This is a basic, yet thorough, common-sense plan that will help you make the right decision during an emergency. Such a plan shows responsible preparation, protects you and others against environmental damage and should meet state requirements. Emergency preparedness and response plans are needed to minimize the environmental impact of manure spills, discharges or mishaps.
For more information on developing an emergency preparedness and response plan, contact your local Utah State University Cooperative Extension agricultural agent, the local USDA-NRCS or the local Utah Conservation District.

Investment by companies into renewable energy projects in the UK has risen sharply this year but is still well down on 2009 levels.
Click HERE to view graphic
The Government said £2.5bn of new privately funded projects had been announced since April. That marks an improvement on the £2.1bn measured in the whole of 2010 by research group Pew Environment. The projects will create nearly 12,000 jobs across the country.
Companies held off investing in new projects in 2010 because of uncertainty around the policies of the new Government. However, with more details published, the investment taps appear to be turning back on.
Levels of investment are still far from the £7.1bn levels recorded by Pew in 2009. Shadow Energy Secretary Carolyn Flint said: "The UK has fallen from third to 13th in the world for investment in green growth, behind countries like Brazil and India."

is there a way to make te stuttering of stutter~ go faster without shifting pitch up?
Do you want to adjust the speed of playback before or after audio capture?
If before just change the grain size being sent to the left inlet.
If after (and I've not actually tried this, so I'm not sure if it works), then you might want to constrain the phase causing sample playback (i.e. 0->1) to smaller value (0 -> 0.5).
Hope that helps.
i wan't to change the playback speed (rigtmost outlet) live, without changing the pitch. is this possible?
You can send your playback ramp signal through a pong~ object (in wrap mode) and adjust the min and max values.
Have fun.
Andrew B.
the pong one works pretty well. putting pong after the ramp and adjusting the high pong value.
what's is the ramp?
thanks for feedback everybody, i'm quite a noob so i'm still fighting with it.
got it, but it is causing clicks and isn't very tight. is there something to do about that?
I can highly recommend NOT working with stutter for that. Switch to
something like a variable delay buffer and do it in there –
search maxobjects.com for vdb or similar
wit skrev:
> got it, but it is causing clicks and isn't very tight. is there something to do about that?
to stop the clicks you need an amplitude envelope (smoothly go to silence at
loop-points), but unless you add additional stutter objects (or
delay/reverb) you'll have silence in between grains.

Getting you more information on this room
For the price I guess I cannot complain too much but the room wasn't ready when I arrived (3pm) and it was not service/cleaned during the day. The room and furnishings weren't dirty just old. Fairly "meh."
Verty reasonable rates, no price gouging during the evacuation, rather old, especially some of the furnishings, Clean, WONDERFUL personnel and staff but (you knew this was coming) very rigid owner not at all sympathetic to the blight of his guests. Most of us were evacuees, tired, stressed and sometimes wanted breakfast , or at least coffee, extended past 9 AM....
Booked a hotel through booking.com and received a confirmation number, mind you I did not provide any credit card number through booking.com
The guy at the front desk told me I should have provided a credit card that did not decline!... I did not provide any card... he was so rude telling me he cancelled the room and he was...
The pool was green do it couldn't be swam in... The rooms smelled like mold. And they messed up on my payment which cost me a lot more.
It took 3 rooms to get one that I would consider staying in. We did stay both nights in that room. But if I couldn't have gotten a better room I guess I would have had to lose a nights rental because it was a reservation and just went to another hotel. Receptionist was great though.
The room was clean and a great value for the cost. Very clean despite the outer appearance. Staff was friendly and I would stay there again when I'm back in town.
The hotel was ok. The room smelled weird, the bed wasn't all that comfy, the pillows offered no support, the sink didn't drain well and the breakfast could use some work.

I quote often mention photography when I post LEGO builds, because I think competent photography can make a massive difference to how the build appears. What I don't mention very much is composition. Because honestly it's usually not relevant.
But it is here.
This isn't a build in the normal sense of the word. LEGO has been used to construct a scene that has been carefully composed to tell a story. It's the sort of thing you might well see a photographer doing. And all of a photographer's tricks have been used here including positioning and depth of field.
It's just that Âtin actually built the set he's photographing. Brilliant, sad stuff.

Starting with its quick-and-easy Resume Builder and Cover Letter Builder, Pongo provides everything you need to create, store, and distribute top-quality resumes and cover letters, and keep track of all the people, data, and documents that can contribute to your success. Pongo's array of resources also includes its Interview Tips program and Job Search Tool. This post, which appeared in October 2008 on Pongo's blog, is written by Julie O'Malley, a Content Writer and Certified Professional Resume Writer (CPRW) at Pongo.
When you're in high school, and even more so in college, your grade point average (GPA) can seem like the one-and-only measure of your success. But how important is your GPA after graduation? Should you put it on your resume? Do employers really care if you had a 2.8 or a 3.0? Can a low score ruin your chances of getting hired? The answers may surprise you.
Just so we're all clear, GPA is a cumulative average of all the grades you've earned in your four (or so) years of classes. In most cases, a perfect score is 4.0. The average score is around 2.8 (depending on variables such as grade inflation).
Yes or No?
Before I go further, this advice only applies when you're fresh out of college. Once you have a few years of professional experience, your undergraduate schooling diminishes in importance. If you still brag about your GPA when you're 40, it might seem a little odd.
What are the general rules of thumb?
- Only put your GPA on your resume if it was 3.0 or higher.
- If your total GPA was under 3.0, but the GPA in your major was higher, put THAT on your resume. (Here's a GPA calculator to help you figure out your Major GPA.)
- Relevant summer jobs or internships will strengthen your resume more than just a high GPA, so don't laser-focus on grades.
Don't forget, employers can ask for copies of your transcripts, so it's important to be truthful about your GPA, if asked.
Do Employers Really Care?
Just how important is your GPA in the real world? A Harris poll conducted in 2008 on behalf of CareerBuilder asked 3,147 hiring managers and human resource professionals about this topic, and you may either be heartened or disappointed to learn:
- 62% require no minimum GPA;
- 31% require a 3.0 or above; and
- 11% require a 3.5 or above.
I think that's actually good news for grads on both ends of the GPA spectrum. Those who worked super-hard and got a super GPA will find employers that demand nothing less. And those whose excellence manifested itself in areas other than academics can still find plenty of employers to value their contributions.
Bottom Line
A high GPA is remarkable and should be emphasized on your resume. An average GPA isn't necessarily bad; it's just not particularly noteworthy. Since your resume is all about summarizing your most noteworthy accomplishments, leave out that 2.7 and focus on your other qualifications. And relax… by the time you're about five years out of college, GPA will be a non-issue.

christopher dorner is wanted in multiple shootings spanning six days across southern california. the 33-year-old said he's declaring war on the lapd after losing his job with the department back in 2008. according to his lengthy and rambling online manifesto he wants revenge until his name is cleared. he writes the violence of action will be high, i will bring unconventional warfare to those in lapd uniform whether on or off duty. dorner is accused of fatally shooting a couple in irving, firing on cops in chino and firing on two police officers killing one of them. his vehicle was found in the big bear area but no sign of the man as police described as armed and dangerous. >> reporter: this burned out truck belonging to murder suspect christopher dorner was found thursday afternoon in the mountains two hours east of los angeles. but dorner himself was nowhere to be found. >> dorner is considered armed and extremely dangerous.
4:01 am
>> reporter: a former navy reservist and expert marksman, dorner posted a lengthy manifesto on facebook detailing threats against police officers he intended to kill. dorner claims he was treated unfairly when fired from the l.a. police department in 2008. he filed a wrongful termination case against the lapd but lost the case. >> the people with whom he had a grievance are fair game and so were their families and so were any other police officers on and off duty. >> reporter: the killing spree began sunday with a double homicide in orange county. the daughter of a former lapd captain who represented dorner in his suit was killed along with her fiance. then on thursday morning he shot and injured an officer and shortly after that ambushed two more at a traffic light killing one. >> during the morning's chaos police mistakenly shot and wounded two women delivering newspapers when officers thought
4:02 am
they had spotted dorner's truck. >> of course he knows what he's doing. we trained him. he's also a member of the armed forces. it's extremely worrisome and scary. >> reporter: in his manifesto, dorner says he won't stop until his name is cleared. stephanie stanton, nbc news, los angeles. it was a day of heated questioning for the man president obama wants to head the cia. john brennan was pressed hard on the use of drones and enhanced interrogation techniques by members of the senate intelligence committee. government memos leaked earlier this week showed drones had been cleared for use against u.s. citizens suspected of working as terrorists. nbc's tracie potts is live with details. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, everyone. brennaned defended and strongly defended the use of drones but distanced himself from how the bush administration questioned terror suspects. >> truth, the full truth and
4:03 am
nothing but the truth. >> reporter: it looks like john brennan is gaining the support of several lawmakers, after defending drone attacks on terror suspects and even americans. at least three killed so far. >> any american who did that should know well that they in fact are part of an enemy against us and that the united states will do everything possible to destroy that enemy to save american lives. >> reporter: drones are used against imminent threats, he said, not as payback. but some are still concerned if it's legal and asked what if the cia takes out the wrong person. >> we've got to see, all -- any and all, of those legal opinions, the ones that the bipartisan group of senators asked for before the vote. >> would that individual please -- >> reporter: protests prompted lawmakers to clear the room just as brennan was getting started. >> i also believe it is important for you to set the record straight. >> reporter: brennan also tells lawmakers he objected to questionable interrogation tactics. >> waterboarding is something that's reprehensible and shouldn't be done.
4:04 am
>> democrats are confident he will be confirmed. >> he was honest, he was forthright and answered the question. >> he's the guy for the job and the only guy for the job. >> reporter: next week, the panel meets to discuss classified material. of course, that classified material now includes the administration's legal justification for using those drones. >> tracie potts, live in washington, thanks so much. don't panic but our planet is about a week away from a close encounter of an extraordinary kind. the asteroid with the not so sexy name of 2012 da14. about half the length of a football field is going to whiz by earth. nasa says it will whiz by the earth at a safe distance of 17,000 miles but beneath the altitude of orbiting satellites. british researchers are warning of the effects of a solar superstorm which they expect to happen soon. unlike minor flare-ups, experts caution ones like this one could
4:05 am
cause blackouts, cripple mobile phones. stay tuned for that. turning back to the top story, the massive winter storm bearing down. >> it's going to be bad because it's the northeast. so many people affected by it. we'll see a period later on tonight into tomorrow morning with visibility is just going to be so poor that being out on the roads is going to be just treacherous from areas like new york city up through hartford through providence, rhode island and over into boston too and moving into central and northern new england. it's coming in pieces. we have a lot of moisture network with and a lot of cold air moving in as well. blizzard warnings are posted all along the coast of new england with eastern massachusetts likely the area that will get hit the hardest with power outages, a lot of wind damage, wind gusts could be as high as about 60 to 65 miles per hour. you can see boston could end up
4:06 am
with more than two feet of snow. new york city should be closer to six to ten inches and hartford 12 to 18. that's the east. out west we have some weather of your own from san francisco down into l.a. we have a lot of showers out that way and those will continue to affect the coast of l.a. temperatures will only be in the 40s and 50s on the elko, nevada could end up with a wintry mix. snow in the northeast and rain in california. it should wind down tomorrow. >> i would take the rain if i had a choice. >> so i would. >> thank. defense secretary leon panetta's almost last day on benghazi and
4:07 am
david beckham's latest foray into the nether world.
4:08 am
4:09 am
welcome back. here are some other stories making news this morning. while being grilled by the senate armed services committee outgoing defense secretary leon panetta strongly defended the pentagon's response to the september 11 attack in benghazi that left chris stevenson and three others dead. panetta told lawmakers there just wasn't enough time to get attack aircraft to the scene. today, president obama will speak at a farewell dinner for panetta. who will be replaced by chuck hagel if replaced by the senate. and michelle obama plans to travel to chicago to attend the funeral for 15-year-old hadiya pendleton. an honor a student and band majorette who participated in the inauguration festivities. hadiya was the victim of gun violence last week. fatally shot about a mile from the obama home.
4:10 am
no arrests have been made. >> now to our big story of the day, that potentially historic blizzard bearing down on the northeast. if jim cantore shows up in your town it's bad news. jim is live in boston this morning. jim, how bad will it be? >> reporter: going to be bad. i brought a yardstick with me. we're starting with nothing. nothing on the ground pap few patches. we're ready to measure this thing. a high impact event coming from the northeast and that's why the governor said look we want you off the roads by noon. all non-essential, non-emergency personnel please be off the road by noon. we just have to think back to this blizzard that happened in 1978 almost 35 years ago to the day that crippled boston. thousands of cars out on the roads. people having to abandon their cars just to get out of the cold. they do not want a repeat of that. it's not just boston it's portland, it's providence, it's
4:11 am
hartford, it is new york city here but, again, very strong words out of the governor's office where they are prepared for this. the salt trucks are ready, the brian is down, mother nature needs to roll in which she will do soon. >> ground zero. moving on to business. wall street is bracing for a blizzard but the trading will go on. keep an eye on linkedin today. the professional social media network shot up 10%. thanks to earnings that nearly doubled. boeing stocks go higher. federal investigators have given the green light to testing of the 787 dreamliner. officials are still investing the jet's battery problem. we'll see how apple fared day after green light capital david einhorn called the company out for it's stockpile of cash. apple said it's considering the proposal of shares. they could build a stack of dollar bills. 9,000 miles high.
4:12 am
they could foot the country's education bill for two years. they could give every apple employee a $1.7 million bonus. or better yet, give every american a check for $437. >> david beckham hadn't claimed he did all the stunts for his commercial we wouldn't have to show you. but since he said he did. the verdict is 37-year-old beck did use a butt double. tough research. check this out. a two lane plow. plus no snowstorm can stop the madness of the most pampered pooches on the planet. the dog show comes to new york. you're watching the ear"early today" show.
4:13 am
4:14 am
4:15 am
welcome back. now to some other stories that caught our eye this morning. we start in florida where a 70-year-old woman lost control of her suv and plowed through a restaurant window just as it was getting ready to open. a very agile bartender inside was able to leap out of the way, and he sustained only minor injuries. in michigan one snowplow definitely sweeps away the competition. it looks like a trailer but swings around wide enough to clear two lanes of highway at
4:16 am
once. even better, it's half the price of normal plows. in new york, almost 3,000 dogs and owners are primping for the prestigious westminster dog show. after a good run these purebreds need a break. we begin with sports. a fantastic finish illinois against number one indiana. >> and they pull off a last-second miracle here at home. how about that! are you kidding me! >> he got it! knocked off number one indiana. >> the fighting illini fought back with a 13-2 run in the closing minutes to stun the hoosiers. next to missouri's and texas a&m. aggies down one with seconds on the clock when a&m's fabyon harris with the crushing three-pointer and the win over missouri, 70-68.
4:17 am
>> 49ers quarterback colin colin kaepernick decided to soothe his pain. before the big game he had those words on his chest but now he's added some serious artwork to his pecs, shoulders and neck line. imagine what it would look like if you won the game. just ahead a leaked memo tells rock stars, musicians and singers not to show too much skin. plus more canine antics, this one you got to see.
4:18 am
4:19 am
4:20 am
good morning. welcome back. all eyes are on the northeast and this blizzard warning that's posted all across the coastline, especially up new england where boston, especially, could end up with about two feet of snow and wind gusts up to 60 to 65 miles per hour. on the west coast we're talking about rain, temperatures this morning are in the 30s and 40s but we've got scattered showers from san francisco down to. there a. off and on throughout most of the day today and then eventually push eastward later on tonight. casper, wyoming will see more of a wintry mix. the pacific northwest is dry for today. then as we start off the weekend, still dry in seattle on saturday. we'll tap out around 47 and then snow in salt lake city, denver will most likely see snow and change over to rain as temperatures in denver top out in the lower 40s. but san francisco the sunshine returns on saturday with highs
4:21 am
in the mid-50s, los angeles a little cool, topping out in the upper 50s on saturday. if you're looking for a comedy this weekend, you really only have one choice. jason bateman and melissa mccarthy star in "identity thief." the newest comedy from the director of "horrible bosses" expected to finish ahead of. "side effect." if you're dieing to bring back that loving feeling with goose and maverick, you can check out "top gun 3d." >> here's bill murray sporting fantastic facial hair at a celebrity golf match. the caddie shack star winds up lying down in a sand trap. and finally cbs is telling artists at the grammy awards to keep their breasts, butts and genital regions covered up. thong-like costumes are also a no-no. telling artists not what to wear is setting yourself up for failure.
4:22 am
we'll wait to see who decide to break the rules. one pooch may be training for the x games. norman the sheep dog was playing with his owners when he developed a flare for riding bikes, scooters and skateboards. he stars on hallmark channel's "who let the dogs out." it looks like a human dressed in a dog costume. >> it does. he's so good at that. how do you train a dog to do that. >> can't train my dog to sit or behave. >> mine knows if there's no treat in my hand she's not sitting. >> this is a big joke on the rest of us. this is "early today," just your first stop of the day today on your nbc station.
4:23 am
4:24 am
well, sports and drones may have dominated the headlines this week but from cowboy monkeys to late night jokes there were plenty of memorable moments. the week got off to a super start with an electric super bowl performance by beyonce that turned the lights out. but baltimore fans still saw the lights. one touchy super bowl ad got more play than ever, even though will ferrell puckered up for the

High schooler hooks less fortunate classmate up with rare Air Jordans
With the winter holidays in full swing we are officially in the middle of the holiday gift-giving season. For many, it's a time to exchange with loved ones, celebrate, and reflect on the past year. If you're a sneakerhead, this is when you scout a good camp spot for Nike's annual end-of-year Air Jordan XI release. This year, one young sneaker enthusiast decided that instead of just focusing on how he would acquire the Jordan XIs, he would gift a pair to someone less fortun...

A beauty pageant where the only contestants are women with breast implants and facelifts suffered an unexpected setback when the favourite collapsed under the weight of her silicone chest.
Beautiful blonde Alexandra Horvath, 23, stumbled and fell off her stiletto heels under the weight of her silicone implants.
The implants caused Alexandra to lose her balance as she strutted her stuff in six-inch high heels.
She toppled off the catwalk shortly after parading in front of judges — tearing a ligament and ending up in hospital.
A friend said: 'She had not got used to the extra weight on top and her new hair extensions got in her eyes - she just lost her balance and tore a ligament in her foot badly.'
Miss Plastic features 'Man Made' patients of the country's leading surgeons showing off everything from boob jobs and liposuction to hair transplants.
Reka Urban, a 22-year-old hostess from Hungary, won the contest in her home country last weekend.
The contest was organised by doctors and women who had cosmetic surgery but were angry about being banned from conventional beauty contests.
Two of the 20 finalists had previously been thrown out of pageants after judges found they had false boobs.
The pageant's organiser Miss Reka Bodis said: "The entry requirement is a surgical procedure done under general or local anaesthesia.
"Unfortunately, Hungarians are still negative about cosmetic surgery and a lot of stereotypes are going about.
"We are not seeking to promote extremely large breasts and the like."
