Elementary Education
Elementary education prepares the future teacher to teach reading, language arts, mathematics, science, social studies, music, art, health and physical education. Thus, the focus is on general and professional courses in education rather than a concentration in a particular subject area.
Elementary education is the study of the teaching-learning process in relation to the academic, affective, social, cultural, moral and psychomotor development of children ranging in ages from approximately six to thirteen. The School of Education offers a program leading to the B.S. in Education in elementary education.
The elementary education major leads to Indiana's teaching license for early and middle childhood, typically grades K-5. With additional hours students can add special endorsements which will permit them to teach special education (including emotionally handicapped, mildly mentally handicapped, and learning disabled) or junior high/middle school.

The future of technology: Science and engineering turned Arizona's first 100 years upside down, so where do we go from here?
Think about the achievements in technology that came during Arizona's first 100 years.
They are all innovations that have changes the way we lives our lives and do business.
Where will technology take us as Arizona enters its second century? How will it affect our lives? Here are technologies and scenarios that some of Arizona's best and brightest minds see playing out in the state's next 100 years.
The Future of Technology In Arizona
Mark Bonsall
General manager and CEO
If I had to pick one technology with the potential to truly revolutionize the industry it would be finding affordable ways to store energy on a very large scale. This would increase the value of intermittent renewable resources like wind and solar and could transform electricity into a more common commodity. It isn't clear that this is possible, but with the growing focus on electric vehicles and other storage technologies, it is certain there will be significant gains over the next century.
Mark Edwards
Vice president of corporate development and marketing
Algae Biosciences, Inc.
Algae-based food, fiber, feed, fertilizer, fuels, and advanced medicines will transform those industries, as we know them today. The current serious problems of waste and pollution will be solved with sustainable algae-based production that recycles and reuses nutrients, water, and energy while regenerating air, water and soils. Our children's children will have sufficient natural resources to produce the food, energy and transportation they will need.
Algae Biosciences is Scottsdale-based and focused on discovering and unlocking the powers of algae to resolve critical human issues – nutrition, health, energy and environment.
Steve Sanghi
President and CEO
Microchip Technology Inc.
If I had to pick one (technology that will have biggest impact on Arizona's next 100 years) it would be the renewable-energy complex of technologies. For Arizona, the primary renewable-energy opportunities can be broken into three categories—measurement, conservation and harvesting. The world's oil supply will eventually run out, and Arizona has more days of sun than most areas. We must continue working to tap into this ever-present energy source. At the same time, we must focus on developing the technologies that will enable individuals and companies to both measure and conserve their energy usage. For example, Arizona has the potential to play a key role in developing the technologies that will be employed at the home, industrial and utility levels to make the burgeoning "smart grid" work.
John Lefebvre
Suntech America
The amount of energy generated through renewable sources like solar power has the potential to surpass that derived from fossil fuels in the next 50 years. We've already seen remarkable technological innovations in the solar field to increase efficiency, develop solutions for energy storage, and further reduce costs, with further improvements on the horizon. With over 300 days of sunshine, Arizona is naturally poised to take advantage of these advancements and its abundant resource by generating clean electricity without carbon and greenhouse gas emissions.
Diane Brossart
Valley Forward Association
The biggest issues facing Arizona over the next 100 years are managing a finite water supply and transitioning to a clean energy economy. Green technology and innovation will create economic and environmentally sound solutions, making Arizona the leading destination for living wisely and sustainably in a desert.
Valley Forward Association promotes cooperative efforts to improve the environment and livability of Valley communities.
Kelly Mott Lacroix
Graduate research associate
Water Resources Research Center in Tucson
We do not have a silver bullet to solve our water supply and demand challenges The state and its water issues are too diverse. Rather, there are many smaller pieces from the simple and small scale, such as rainwater harvesting, to the large and complex, such as increased reclaimed water use, that when taken together will constitute a solution.
Bill Hubert
President and founder
Cology, Inc.
Universal, personal-application based technology in general, and highly-sophisticated, profile-driven applications that help consumers (students and parents in our industry) not only gain access to a broader spectrum of programs and services available – but an interactive relationship with providers that will help both sides of the "economic equation" benefit from the transaction.
Scottsdale-based Cology, Inc. is a leading provider of end-to-end private student loan origination and repayment servicing solutions for lenders.
CR Herro
Vice president of environmental affairs
Meritage Homes
In the next century, climate will take the lead role in transforming Arizona and its buildings into energy-producing solar collectors. Arizona has the ability to become the largest producer of renewable, clean energy nationwide. In residential construction, that has already started. The first cost-effective solar communities debuted in Arizona. Meritage Homes introduced the nation's first net-zero homes in Arizona, saving owners both energy and money. And Arizona utilities lead the country in sponsoring energy efficiency and renewable energy programs. Arizona is shaping up to be a state powered by the sun in every way imaginable.
Catherine Niemiec
Phoenix Institute of Herbal Medicine & Acupuncture, College & Clinic
Technology will be used to not only focus on the tiny gene, but to see the bigger picture of the bio-energetic field of the body. Not unlike what you would see in a Star Trek movie, technology would be used to assess and heal both the body and mind, taking into account the bio-electric system. Acupuncture and Oriental medicine has been focused on individualized medicine for thousands of years, with each treatment and formula specifically adapted to an individual, changing as the person changes and moves toward health. Thus, this dynamic medicine is the forefather of modern "individualized medicine" and can work well to make modern biotechnology more effective.
Danny Murphy
Airport director
Sky Harbor International Airport
With the explosion of mobile devices, coupled with high speed wireless networks, there is a new generation that will live their lives on mobile technology, using smartphones, touchpads and other mobile devices.
In the past we used to print so many information pieces about the airport. And while we still provide printed materials to an extent, our focus is on providing information via the web and for mobile units.
Dr. Grace Caputo
Phoenix Children's Hospital/Maricopa Medical Center Pediatric Residency
Moving to a system where we utilize electronic medical records will really give us the ability to shape and improve health care across the board. Pediatric healthcare will be heavily impacted as we have just started to unravel genetic bases diseases. In the future, we hope to understand the genetic process of diseases so we can treat them and ultimately prevent diseases with wellness and lifestyle changes.
Catherine Anaya
CBS 5 News
I think the internet technology we currently use to help in our news gathering will become a bigger factor in how we do things. Smart phones (or whatever replaces them in the next 100 years) will replace cameras and studios creating more intimacy and accessibility. That accessibility will make it much easier to hold those in power more accountable for their actions which I hope will have a positive impact on how the state's laws are created, shaped and enforced.
Mahesh Seetharam, M.D.
Medical oncologist and hematologist
Arizona Oncology
Personalized medicine through whole genome sequencing (genomics), proteomics and noninvasive imaging will pave the way for the future. Current research to evaluate for circulating cancer cells, and evaluation for cancer in urine samples are already being studied, and holds promise for the future.
Kenneth J. Biehl, M.D.
Radiation oncologist
Arizona Oncology
Immensely precise and conformal radiation treatments in the form of stereotactic radiation, high dose-rate radiation and molecularly targeted radiation will allow radiation oncologists surgical precision in assisting the people of Arizona to improve cancer cure and control. Just as the technological advances in the past have allowed women diagnosed with breast cancer to pursue breast conservation therapy rather than mastectomy, and have allowed men to preserve erectile function with prostate cancer, future advances will allow more Arizonans diagnosed with cancer to enjoy a better quality of life along with improved cure rates.
Michael Crow
Arizona State University
The biggest single technology to impact the future of Arizona will be individualized learning technologies that allow individuals to master subjects in ways customized to their particular types of intelligence and learning modalities. This technology will allow people to learn more quickly and more deeply and more broadly. Those places, hopefully like Arizona, that enable and empower this kind of learning will see tremendous positive impacts from this technological development.
Where to invest in technology
Patricia Ternes, a financial advisor with RBC Wealth Management in Scottsdale says these are the four technology sectors to invest in going into Arizona's next century:
1. Water
Growing imbalances in global water supply and demand are well documented. Within that heading, the companies involved with water fall into four categories: (1) activities and technologies that increase supply; (2) the building of the necessary water structure; (3) processes that help reduce demand; and (4) water management.
2. Agriculture
When you look at the growth of the world's population companies that are involved in agriculture and food production will continue to be attractive and important.
3. Health
Another important sector will be health care services and life sciences tools and services that provide better quality of life for the aging population.
4. The unknown
The fourth sector doesn't exist yet. Advances are happening so fast that something new will be created that will change our lives.

When a surfer is at the top of their game it seems like everything goes their way. Just ask Hawaiian Kai Barger, May's Now/Next Monster Energy Performer of the Month.
Padding his title as ASP World Junior Champ, Kai snagged two covers since last fall (Surfer's October '08 and TransWorld SURF's July '09 issues). When our July issue came out, Kai happened to be in SoCal for the Oakley Pro Junior Global Challenge U.S. Qualifier, which meant he got to see the cover—and interview—hot off the presses. We'll chalk it up to karma when, new cover in hand, Barger proceeded to demolish Lowers, win the event, and qualify for the Oakley Pro Junior Global Challenge in Bali this October. Was there additional confidence from the TWS cover shot, or was it added pressure to perform well?
We wanted to find out the answer, but in Kai's July issue interview, he talks about how much more traveling he's been doing since the Junior World Champ win. Sure enough, that was the case: Kai is currently in Bali, then on his way to the Maldives, then back to Bali, and making one last stop in Indo for a boat trip. Talk about a whirlwind. We'll leave you with Kai's words on his current status from the July issue interview: "I'm like Mike Jones-'Back then hos didn't want me, now I'm hot hos all on me!'" -Ryan Brower
Age: 19
Hometown: Haiku, HI
Sponsors: Hurley, Nike 6.0, Oakley, Local Motion, and DaKine

Congrats Kai and good luck trekking the globe this year and defending your title.

GSA Launches Refreshed Agency Website
GSA.gov Improvements Focus on Easier Access to Products and Services
November 2, 2005
Contact: MaryAnne Beatty, (202) 501-1231
Washington, DC – The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) today launched a redesign of its external agency Web site, www.gsa.gov. The refreshed site will make it easier for federal customer agencies, businesses, and citizens to get the information they need on GSA's products and services.
"We have listened to our federal customer agencies, vendors who do business with GSA and citizens who look to GSA for vital information and we are responding to their needs for an easier way to find the products and services that GSA offers," stated GSA's Associate Administrator for Citizen Services and Communications M.J. Pizzella. "Whether they require an online self-service tool, specific reference information, or just the right phone number to call for personal assistance, these changes to gsa.gov allow us to get our visitors what they need quickly."
GSA is a leader among federal agencies in the area of usability testing and Web metrics (employing user research, customer comments, Web traffic reports, and the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI), an industry standard for measuring Web site performance over time). The agency Web site has seen an increase of 7 percent in FY 2005 ACSI scores, which represents a major improvement in overall visitor satisfaction. Using both www.gsa.gov and www.firstgov.gov usability expertise, GSA will continue to work with users of the site to ensure that it continues to be an effective communication tool for disseminating information about the agency's products and services.
Some of the improvements that users will notice are:
- A newly redesigned homepage that will make it easier for specific visitor groups to find the information they need to do their jobs. This includes individualized categories for federal agencies, citizens and vendors that wish to do business with GSA.
- An enhanced search presentation that improves the organization of results information.
- A more user-friendly layout of information using an improved tab system to better identify topical information.
- An enhanced presentation of current GSA initiatives and events.
GSA will continue to listen to what its customers are requesting and to improve content to make it easier to read and understand. Information will be continuously updated as it develops about organization changes stemming from the creation of the Federal Acquisition Service – a long-term initiative to improve GSA's effectiveness and business offerings.
For more information and to view the recent changes please visit www.gsa.gov.
GSA is a centralized, federal procurement, property management, policy development and information provision agency, created by Congress to improve government efficiency and help federal agencies better serve the public. In this role, GSA acquires products and services on behalf of federal agencies; plays a key role in developing and implementing government-wide policies; provides services and solutions for the office operations of more than one million federal workers; and encourages a citizen-centric relationship with government by providing a single "point of entry" to the information and services citizens need in a timeframe they can appreciate. This allows citizens to receive accurate, timely and consistent answers and information, and helps federal agencies better respond to citizen inquiries.

Hi there, Just would like some feedback here on [link removed] which contains 12 tags in total, available in both psd and ai/eps, 4 shapes, a bunch of color variations. 4$ just seems a little low, any thoughts?
Agreed your item should cost more, I myself have the same problem with [link removed]. 40 items in total. Yet 6$ on sale. If i had submitted one by one I bet i would have got 2 or 3$ per item.
I agree with both of you and have an issue with one of my items as well. What is the correct proceedure for requesting a price change?
Sorry for starting another reply. I was hoping to add to my previous comment with these examples but am unable to edit. Here are 2 examples from my portfolio that need price adjustments, please.
Each of the flats contained in this collection are unloaded indivdually and priced at @ 2.00 each. This is fine. No issues.
The collection is priced at $7.00 [link removed] This is also fine. I'm not complaining about this at all.
Here's the problem… The entire collection, redrawn to fit the croquis, who now owns a pair of shoes and a swimsuit or shapewear, is priced at $4.00. [link removed]
The same situation exists with another collection where the separates are priced at $2.00, the collection is priced at $4.00 [link removed] and the presentation set is also priced at $4.00 [link removed]
This is not fair, in my opinion. And I am sincerely hoping to find out how to properly request a price adjustment.
Thank you in advance.
The best way would be to contact support here : http://support.envato.com and request a price increase together with the reasoning behind it, and all required links. Posting it on the forums does nothing and can be considered self-promotion.
To that extent, I've removed your links. Good luck

Felix "Zoo" JamesFootball Coach, 1951-70
See Vimeo interview with Jones.
Basketball flourished during his XU tenure, with the Gold Rush and Gold Nuggets recording six 20-victory seasons apiece and combining for six appearances at the NAIA Division I National Championships. XU's women won first-round games at nationals four consecutive seasons, and the Nuggets extended that streak a year after James' retirement.
James also administered in 1994-95 the return of men's tennis and cross country to intercollegiate status and the introduction of women's tennis and cross country. He hired Dannton Jackson, XU's current head coach of men's basketball and interim athletics director, as a women's basketball assistant coach and later gave him the cross country duties. Alma Henderson, the department's longtime administrative assistant II, also worked for James.
James was a 1941 graduate of Xavier who worked his way through XU as a manager on the men's track and field team. He enlisted in the U.S. Army Air Corps after graduation and served as a medic in Italy during World War II with the Tuskegee 332nd Fighter Group.
He was inducted into the Greater New Orleans Sports Hall of Fame in 1989 after winning two state championships, three city championships and five district championships in 15 years as head football coach at L.B. Landry High School on the New Orleans West Bank. He also taught at Landry and coached track and basketball.
Prior to Landry, James worked six years at Gaudet School before it closed in 1951. After his Landry tenure, James worked for the Orleans Parish Public Schools personnel department as coordinator for certification and, ultimately, as its director.
James was born in Gerard, Ga., on March 11, 1920, and moved to New Orleans with his family at age 5. He was nicknamed Zoo because of his childhood love of animal cookies. He was a 1937 graduate of McDonogh 35 High School, and he received a master's degree from Hampton Institute (now Hampton University) after the war. James relocated to Memphis, Tenn., in 2005 after Hurricane Katrina.

Carey Mulligan Gossip
Carey Mulligan gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Carey does
FameFlynet, David M. Benett/ Getty
Lindsay Lohan says… Carey Mulligan does. While Lohan is trying to tell people she might be doing a play in London, check out Carey Mulligan leaving the theatre last night after press night for Skylight opposite Bill Nighy. The production is receiving very strong reviews Full Story
Carey Mulligan fights for her right
Before the party, there's the vote. This is Carey Mulligan in London on the set of the new film Suffragette, in which she plays Maude, "a foot soldier of the early feminist movement". Well, I guess it's not a rom-com. Then again, rom-coms aren't exactly Carey's jam. Full Story
Carey Mulligan: Nude > Singing
It's really too bad more people don't feel this way. Carey Mulligan was in New York this morning still promoting Inside Llewyn Davis. Matt Lauer reminded her of when she once said that she'd rather go nude than sing on camera. She was super cute about it. And those dimples came out. Full Story
Carey Mulligan for Thanksgiving
One my favourite girls… Here she is landing at Heathrow, according to the photo agency. But yesterday the Daily Mail said she was arriving in LA. If that's true, it's a quick trip. In and out, all business, then back to London, get the f-ck out of Los Angeles. Full Story
Carey & Oscar in London
Carey Mulligan and Oscar Isaac were in London last night for a screening of Inside Llewyn Davis. I love her in yellow. And I love the shape of this dress. And YES, those are good shoes. No shoe hate here. No hate at all here. Not when one of my top girl crushes and the #1 on my Five List are in the same article, uncontaminated by Justin Timberlake. Full Story
Carey goes dark…and sings
Splash, Neilson Barnard/ Rob Kim/ Getty
Carey Mulligan attended the NY premiere of Inside Llewyn Davis this weekend. Her hair is dark now. Later on, she let it down to perform at The Town Hall for the Another Day, Another Time concert, celebrating folk music. Her husband Marcus Mumford was on stage too (he worked on the Llewyn Davis soundtrack) – though not with her so, supposedly, she sang with Elvis Costello (not pictured). Full Story
Carey to play Clinton?

THR reported yesterday that Carey Mulligan is the top choice to play young Hillary Rodham in a biopic about the former first lady experience working on the committee to impeach President Nixon around the time she was starting to get serious with William Jefferson Clinton. Full Story
Gatsby without Leo
Ryan Pierse/ Lisa Maree Williams/ Getty
Baz Luhrmann and his Gatsby cast were in Sydney tonight at the gala premiere. Tobey Maguire was there, and Joel Edgerton, and of course Carey Mulligan dutifully promoted their film. Leo, as you know, stayed back in Cannes. As previously mentioned, Leo bailed because of a "scheduling change". Full Story
How Leo parties in Cannes Part 2
FameFlynet, KHAP/ Splash
Surrounded by beautiful women, of course. Click here for Part 1 posted yesterday. Last night Leonardo DiCaprio, still in Cannes, hit up the De Grisogono party at the Eden Roc. The De Grisogono party is one of the more hilarious festival events for its high low factor. Full Story
Who's the star of this movie?
Vittorio Zunino Celotto /LOIC VENANCE /ALBERTO PIZZOLI /Pascal Le Segretain /Getty Images
If you didn't know, if you had no idea about Inside Llewyn Davis, looking at these photos, who would you think was the star of the movie? Justin Timberlake, right? Oscar Isaac is the star of Inside Llewyn Davis. Justin Timberlake, it's been joked Full Story
Gran in black leather
Pascal Le Segretain/ George Pimentel/ Getty
Thank you, Nicole Kidman. After Emma Watson's rather underwhelming Cannes carpet appearance last night, Thursday at the festival was rather lacking in dress porn. But Gran came through in the evening at the IFP and Calvin Klein party in black leather that looks like it's stripped along the side. Full Story

Adios, Ubuntu
I'm not going to make a big deal about this, despite the fact it transcends mere annoyance and enters the anger zone. Also, I apologize to those who got comfortable with their popcorn and were ready for a verbal thrashing and grammatical throwdown of epic proportions here, as we've done in the past when this issue arose.
The reason I'm not going to make a big deal about it is because there's nothing new in this issue — just the standard issue Canonical/Ubuntu behavior where it's "Ubuntu uber alles" and the FOSS community be damned. But at the same time, the reason I bring it up is because it's something which folks should keep on their proverbial radar, and keep track of it because just as it has happened continually in the past, chances are it will keep happening in the future.
Joe Brockmeier wrote something on his personal blog today that he discovered yesterday about "the Ubuntu kernel" in the upcoming Precise Pangolin release. I can't add anything to this, and Joe writes something I completely agree with and something I wish I had written. This new "kernel" comes from a company that has systematically kept the word "Linux" at arm's length, or further, for years now, and now they don't even have the courtesy of acknowledging their roots.
What's worse is that there is a revisionist tack to the story of who-begat-who, since Mark Shuttleworth, a person for whom the word "hubris" seems to have been coined, seems to think — and isn't shy about opining — that Debian is part of the Ubuntu "ecosphere," rather than the other way around.
To say nothing of the lack of upstream contribution by Canonical/Ubuntu — this has been outlined in the past here, here, and even here where The Mark and I square off, and pretty much all over the place.
As long as I've been using Linux — that would be 2006 and one of my first distros was Ubuntu (though my first was Debian, to which I've returned both using that distro and CrunchBang) — Ubuntu has done much to bring visibility to Linux, until it stopped calling itself that. So while it deserves a degree of gratitude for this, Canonical/Ubuntu has always been the salesman in the new-car showroom, taking credit for selling you this great product when the truth is that the salesman really did not have much to contribute to the construction of the car.
I'm more than welcome to let Canonical/Ubuntu and the legions of Ubunteros — many of them good people, some of them blind hero-worshiping sheep (this will become evident in the comments, no doubt) — go their own way and I'll go mine.
(Larry Cafiero is one of the founders of the Lindependence Project and develops business software at Redwood Digital Research, a consultancy that provides FOSS solutions — which no longer includes Canonical/Ubuntu products — in the small business and home office environment.)

Yeah, that's been a burr under my saddle for a long time now. Having talked with someone fairly well up the Canonical ladder right here in Austin, it has been decided that the word "Linux" is a millstone around the neck of success. To be honest, There are times and instances where I tend to agree with this but to go out of the way and seemingly misrepresent the whole chicken and egg thing is another matter.
I as well have washed my hands of Ubuntu. Our main installation disk is still the LTS 10.04 version but as soon as Mint comes out with their next LTS, that will replace Ubuntu as our official distro. Of course, we remaster it to include our own theme and added educational apps.
Seems to me that Canonical/Ubuntu is running out of feet to shoot. Just sayin'.
March 27, 2012 at 6:51 pm
Shotgun! What ever bus Larry is on I will be with him.
Makes me mad though, I have a very nice wool hat that
keeps me warm in the winter, but it says Ubuntu 😦
Have to send it to Goodwill.

You could preface 'U….' with an 'X'
April 3, 2012 at 4:58 am
that's right
April 4, 2012 at 10:29 am
Exactly — I don't see why, when Canonical/Ubuntu decided they didn't like GNOME3, they didn't just switch to Xfce for the default desktop and discontinue Xubuntu, since that would make Xubuntu a needless duplication.
March 27, 2012 at 7:16 pm
I started out with a Kubuntu LiveCD for the first several months way back when in 2007. I've been an all-or-nothin' Linux user ever since.
I've always noticed this thing about Ubuntu.
March 27, 2012 at 10:43 pm
Failing some behind-the-scenes Microsoft-like Embrace and Extend backtwisting deal between the Canonical higher-ups and Linux Mint's Clement Lefebvre or another popular distro's maintainers, I also see Ubuntu eventually fading into insignificance. Probably very slowly at first, because the Ubunteros can still effectively keep proclaiming the gotta-have benefits of their latest-and-greatest .04 and .10 release features.
But fade away, Ubuntu certainly WILL.
March 28, 2012 at 11:14 am
Glad to see Ken on other sites. To me it seems Ubuntu has forgotten where it came from. I also agree with veggiericear(hope I got that right) that Ubuntu will gradually fade away. I was a huge fan of Mepis because it made Linux easy for someone like me. I then learned how to install Debian. Mepis showed innovation because it made Debian easy, Ubuntu also did that in it's early days. Philip Newborough has taken openbox and made it easy for me and I suspect it will only get better. The true innovation seems to come from the real Linux community whether it's Red Hat, Debian or people like Philip Newborough and many others.
Full disclosure, I've used cut and pasted on some parts here due to my talent for misspelling.

It's finally Friday (well, not really because I'm posting this on Thursday night but whatevs)...woot!
I spent way too much money today, this tells me I should never go out to the store when Rusty's in the shopping mood. He didn't stop me from putting things in the cart at any point, this is what I normally take him along for...thanks for nothin' hon!
After about 3 weeks of
- I'm looking forward to a weekend without Rusty having to work. We were supposed to take our 2 god-kids to Legoland in April and now we've had to push it to sometime in May because of his lame-o schedule.
- Something kind of embarrassing that I still love anyway is Gerber banana baby food. Yep, it's a little strange for a grown ass woman to eat baby food but I swear it's not some sort of weird baby fetish thing. I just LOVE bananas that much.
- My favorite car is I dont know that I have a favorite...I 'like' a lot of cars but a favorite? Nothings really coming to mind.
- If I could pick one type of weather to live with for the rest of my life it would be a cool 68 degrees with a light breeze. I'm not a fan of the heat and I don't care for lots of rainy days. I know, I'm pretty picky, ha ha.
- My favorite thing to do after a bad/stressful day is go home & throw myself in bed. After a few minutes of just laying there I vent to Rusty about how crappy my day was & I'll then proceed to make my way to the kitchen in order to raid everything/anything in the fridge.
- This weekend is not going to be much fun. I'll be spending most of it away from home, hanging out with my grams. The only good thing about it will be tuning into the UFC St. Pierre & Shield's fight on Saturday night....man I cannot wait to see St. Pierre in those tiny shorts.
- If I were a color, I'd be purple or green because, they're happy colors, at least to me they are. Also, lilac colored eyeshadow looks really good on me ;)

CHICAGO -- The National Automatic Merchandising Association has announced plans to conduct a series of seminars on micromarket operations. The first is scheduled for Chicago on Aug. 13 and 14; the second will be held in Philadelphia, Aug. 21 and 22; and the third is set for Welcome, NC, Sept. 4 and 5. The tour will wrap up on the West Coast, at a date and place to be determined.
Program presenters will include Brad Bachtelle, Bachtelle & Associates; Dr. Michael Kasavana, Michigan State University; and Jerry McVety, McVety & Associates. Bachtelle, a pioneering vending market researcher, presented the results of a survey of the fast-growing micromarket business at two workshops held during this year's NAMA OneShow in Las Vegas, NV. Kasavana is the NAMA endowed professor at the School of Hospitality Business in MSU's Eli Broad College of Business. McVety is a NAMA Knowledge Source consultant in foodservice.
NAMA director of education and certification Joann DeNardis explained that the two-day seminar will focus on micromarket operations and provide a comprehensive overview of merchandising, systems and support services. The seminars also will provide an opportunity for networking with micromarket operators and suppliers.
The program at each of the seminars will led off with an introductory session designed for operators with few or no micromarkets, DeNardis added. The optional session will cover micromarket basics, to bring operators with limited experience up to speed on the basics.
Registration details will be forthcoming. Operators interested in attending can email firstname.lastname@example.com.

I didn't do any of this. everything i've ever said was a lie.
^ The front wheel bothers me.
It's more un-proportional than the rest of the bike, thus its distracting.
do you mean that it's the only thing not getting twisted, and that its looking right makes it so different that its distracting?
I didn't do any of this. everything i've ever said was a lie.
Its not that, the breaking away of the rest of it makes sense. Its just that the wheel doesn't look right. Don't get me wrong its a cool piece, it just looks kinda off.
its cool. i know what you mean, and i think it looks too thin at the top and bottom parts.
I didn't do any of this. everything i've ever said was a lie.
I like it man, I mean the proportions do seem a bit off but I reckon it looks good, as if it's just disintegrating as it's going along.
The best thing anyone can do style-wise on here is to leave.
its directly on my wall. gonna hang a frame over it so it looks like a framed piece. i painted it crooked on purpose so if anyone goes to fix it, they'll be like wtf? lol shitty pic
Dope shit Kaiser! Here's a sketch I just finished up of Claudio Sanchez.
really quick sketch of what i hope to turn into a painting if i wont stop being so fucking lazy. lemme know what u guys think of the expression and the eye
Dope buzzard Duke what medium are you going to use?
Fuck yo bars.
Work in progress. Shite flick. I really like mixing regular brushed acrylics with airbrushed acrylics. Unfortunately all the black in this currently is Createx airbrush paint, and that shit sucks, gonna use thinned Liquitex next time.
Some recent pen and marker drawings.
And a deck painted with acrylics and markers.
All you did was try and copy characters from other art. There's nothing original.
It's not impressive and three pictures didn't deserve a separate thread.

text: I just joined this forum today. I love the Dallas Cowboys I have been a fan of the Dallas Cowboys since the summer of 1992. I live in Florida so I am a long ways from Dallas. But in 1995 my dad took me to Texas Stadium to see the Cowboys play. I was so happy that I was going to see the Dallas Cowboys play. It was 12-17-95 and it was the Cowboys and the Giants. The Cowboys scored all their points with field goals. I remember the score being the Giants 20 the Cowboys 18 and Chris Boniol was getting ready to kick another field goal. If he makes the field goal the Cowboys win if he does not make it the Giants win. Chris Boniol made the field goal and the Cowboys went on to beat the Giants 21 to 20. This was the year that Dallas went on to win their 5th Super Bowl I have only seen the Cowboys play once. But if the Cowboys play the Bucs in the playoffs and if it's in Tampa, I just might go see that game. I am going to DisneyWorld for 2 weeks for my birthday and during that trip I will go to the ESPN club in DisneyWorld to watch the Super Bowl. I hope Dallas makes it to the Super Bowl. I will enjoy the Super Bowl no matter what, but it's so much more fun when your team is in the Super Bowl. Go Cowboys I am also a big fan of NFL games on the radio. Even if I have the game on tv I still like to listen to it on the radio. There is just something about NFL games on the radio that I just love.

From the 2006 Census, 24% of Indigenous people aged 15 years and over were engaged in full-time employment, 17% were in part-time employment, 5% were employed but absent from their job, and 46% were not in the labour force.
For non-Indigenous people aged 15 years and over, 40% were working full-time, 18% were in part-time employment, 4% were away from work and 35% were not in the labour force.
Labour Force Status by Indigenous status (a) (b), 2006
If we only look at those persons who were in the work force we see greater differences between Indigenous and non-Indigenous males, than between Indigenous and non-Indigenous females.
Almost two thirds (65.5%) of Indigenous males, worked full time, but over three quarters of non-Indigenous males worked full time (79.2%). Just under half (46.4%) of Indigenous females worked full time compared with slightly over half (50.6%) of non-Indigenous females.

Father asks 15-year-old son to hold beer to take a photo; Both get booted from football game
Here's a submission for great moments in overreaction history. Season-ticket holder John Coulterwas attending a Cardinals preseason game at University of Phoenix Stadium when he handed his son his beer so he could free up his hands to take a picture. Two undercover officers saw the transfer of the beverage from father to son and proceeded to kick both paying customers out of the game.

College of Arts and Sciences announce deans
Two professors have been named to senior leadership positions in the College of Arts and Sciences.
Dr. Robert C. Thunell, a professor in the department of earth and ocean science and the marine science program, has been named senior associate dean for the natural sciences. Dr. Anne Bezuidenhout, professor and chair of the philosophy department, has been named interim senior associate dean of liberal arts. Bezuidenhout replaces Dr. Steve Lynn, who will become the dean of the South Carolina Honors College.
Thunell will oversee strategic planning and management for eight departments, three interdisciplinary programs, 15 centers and institutes. He has extensive experience as an administrator, having managed large grants and serving as a director of departments, programs and schools within the college for 20 years.
An oceanographer and geologist, Thunell joined the faculty in 1979 and has been awarded 43 grants totaling more than $9 million. His work has been published in the field's most prominent journals. In 1992, he was named a Carolina Distinguished Professor, and in 2009, he earned the distinction as a Fellow of the AAAS, the world's leading scientific society.
Bezuidenhout will direct strategic planning and oversee the expansive liberal arts, which include 12 departments, 17 programs and 15 centers and institutes. A professor for 21 years, she has served in a number of administrative roles in her discipline, more recently as chairman of the department of philosophy.
In addition to philosophy, Bezuidenhout is among the core faculty in the Linguistics Program. She is internationally recognized for her scholarship in the philosophy of language, formal semantics and pragmatics and the philosophy of the mind, particularly in the debate that surrounds the nature of consciousness. Her research has included collaborations with psychology faculty on NSF-funded research using psycholinguistic methods to study the role that context plays in language comprehension. She is published widely in top philosophy and linguistics journals.
Thunell, Bezuidenhout and Lynn will begin their new positions July 1.

A9 TV; 20 October 2011
(Regarding a report that "Gaddafi has been killed, but this has not yet been confirmed by NATO")
Killing that wretched fellow will be no victory. What is victory? Islamic Union. Turkish-Islamic Union. It is Muslims loving and protecting one another. Muslims, all Islamic countries, must bind themselves together against a policy of enmity and hatred toward Muslims, against this satanic plot. If you notice, they are implementing policies of hatred toward them all separately, toward every group and every community, just about. They are also implementing a policy of hatred toward Christians and against Jews, and against Muslim communities. They also have a policy of supporting irreligious, faithless, cheating, incestuous and lying types. I am not naming names, but in general terms. You can see. I have published it.
Nobody will be covering filth up. They will be curing the disease, not covering up its filth. These things happen with fathers who drink and take drugs in communities where there is no religion, no Allah and no book. You can see. Nobody is tasked with covering that up. Trying to cover it up by using religion and logic and engaging in demagoguery will just make one an accessory to the crime. It would be a terrible violation of conscience. A girl seeks shelter in a police station, and they say: "How can you make a complaint against your father? Have you gone crazy? He is your father, so he may beat you, but so what? Go on, go home." Then two hours later a report comes in that her father has decapitated her. "Your father is a sacred figure, he will not hurt or beat you," they say. But they do. You see this. There are thousands of fathers who cut their daughters into pieces. There are thousands of mothers who knife their daughters and try to kill them. Who throw acid in their faces. And these are supposedly "sacred." Who is not sacred? Everyone is sacred. Mothers, fathers and children. There is no such thing as mothers or fathers or children being more sacred. Everyone is sacred. But there can be no sacredness when a crime has been committed. True mothers are honest, loving and affectionate mothers. They are moderate, democratic, fine thinking and speaking, they act well, they are full of love, they respect their children's opinions and beliefs and respect their friends who share those beliefs. Some people say; "All right, I have no problem with you praying, but you must not talk to Muslims." Allah says in one verse that "Muslims are brothers." Muslims act as one. Allah says they are like buildings of lead all welded together. He tells them not to be divided and separated. How can anyone try and divide you? That would be like saying, "You must not pray." What does telling someone not to talk to Muslims mean? "Pray at home. But no talking." And that is like saying, "Do not perform ablutions, but you can pray." That is unacceptable. Worship is a single whole. Muslims act as one. Allah tells them not to be divided. They interact with the groups and friends they like. For example, some are Sulaymanis, some are followers of the Nur and others followers of Esad Coşan. Some are devoted to Sheikh Nazım and others to Ahmet Yasin. Others set up their own groups of like-minded people. There is a wide variety. But we respect and love them all. Some people are Jews, and others are Christians. And we love and respect them, too. Some people are Orthodox and some Protestant and others are evangelicals. We interfere with none of them. We have a duty to respect them all. We cannot say, "You must not speak to such and such." They must make their own decisions on that. You cannot tell an adult of 25 or 30 or 40 what to do. Otherwise they will do the same to you. And what makes you so mentally superior? How do you know you are superior to them? Why should that person listen to you? "You must be just like me, sharing my ideas and ideology." You cannot impose that. Everyone has freedom of ideas. A child cannot interfere in his father's ideas, nor a father in his child's. If he is an adult. If he has not yet reached the age of maturity, that is different. Fathers can guide children what to think then.
For example, what does Pharaoh say? He immediately demands the death of the Prophet Moses (pbuh). He commands that the Prophet Abraham (pbuh) be arrested right away. Then he orders him to be burned, may Allah forbid. But Allah thwarted him on every occasion. For example, the families of the Companions of the Cave gave their children no peace. "You must abide by our faith and our beliefs. You must not talk to your friends or such and such a person. You must not preach and you must not live by Islam." And what did they say? "Let us join together and leave our homes and families." They were very few in number. But Allah led them to a cave and set them in a deep sleep. Allah kept them in a state of sleep for many years, as a miracle. Perhaps Almighty Allah kept them in another dimension. The unbelievers and Pharaoh in the time of the Prophet Moses (pbuh) spread propaganda against Muslims everywhere. "They are bad, they are evil, they take advantage, they will brainwash you. They will hypnotize you, so keep away from the Prophet Moses (pbuh)." But Allah says in one verse that, "No one believed in Moses except for a few of his people out of fear that Pharaoh, and the elders, would persecute them." Unbelievers have gone to extremes in every age. They always imagined themselves to be really clever. They always imagined Muslims to be very foolish. They always slandered and defamed them. But it is they who are base, devoid of character, lacking in honor and false. Yet it is these treacherous and vile people who utter the most awful slanders about Muslims and attack them and then seek to cover up their own crimes. And, they have generally wronged Muslims. Though Muslims earned merit from that, of course, insha'Allah.2011-11-08 12:01:53

One person with compassion and dedication can impact many special lives. Hacienda HealthCare will celebrate its 45th year of service with a special dedication honoring the late Ilene Butler, Friday, June 29, 2012 at 9 a.m. The dedication will be held in the Felipe Gonzales Garden Courtyard at the main location at 1402 E. South Mountain Ave. in Phoenix.
Butler's legacy started in 1967 when she was told she could not legally adopt children because of her unmarried status. Undeterred by this obstacle, Butler's compassion and love for children took her down a path where she would become a foster parent for three special needs children who had been abandoned by their families. Seeing how great the need was, Butler took in more children and hired staff to help take care of them. Thus started what is Hacienda HealthCare today. Hacienda specializes in the care of intellectually disabled, medically fragile and chronically ill infants, children, teens, and young adults throughout Arizona. They come to Hacienda because of a near drowning, terrible accident, debilitating disease, child abuse, and a whole host of other tragic events.
CEO, Bill Timmons, will reveal the compelling story of Ilene Butler and Hacienda. Special guest speakers include Arizona Representative Catherine Miranda, Vice Mayor Michael Johnson, and a parent of a near drowning child who had been with Hacienda Healthcare. Drowning is the # 1 cause of death for Arizona children under 5, but for those who survive, what is life like for them and their families? Hear how one parent's journey brought her to Hacienda. As a member of the Drowning Prevention Coalition of Arizona, Hacienda provides medical care to near drowning victims and continues to campaign for awareness through real life stories of near drowning victims and the life changing impact on their families.

Local researcher awarded Fidler grant by NRC
The National Resource Center for The First-Year Experience and Students in Transition named Syracuse University's Rachel Smith the recipient of the 2009 – 10 Paul P. Fidler Research Grant.
The center, based at the University of South Carolina, will recognize Smith, a doctoral student in education, at its 16th National Conference on Students in Transition, Nov. 6 – 8 in Salt Lake City.
The grant encourages and enables scholarly research on issues related to college-student transitions and includes a stipend of $5,000 and travel to the 17th and 18th National Conference on Students in Transition to be held respectively in November 2010 and 2011.
Research completed as a result of the Fidler grant will be featured in the Journal of The First-Year Experience and Students in Transition. Smith's study is titled "Connected in Learning: A Mixed Methods study of First-Year Students' Academic and Social Networks." To understand how first-year students develop relationships critical to their academic success and social adjustment, Smith will compare a themed learning community with a traditional residence-hall floor using surveys, interviews and observation.
In its fifth year, the Paul P. Fidler Research Grant has become a well-respected and highly competitive grant program, said Jennifer Keup, the center's director.
This year's crop of proposals came from researchers and practitioners throughout the country and internationally. Smith's research promises to shed light on an area that has received little attention in higher education, she said.
"Rachel's research examines a very important and yet critically under-examined area in the field of higher education," Keup said. "The results of her study that include surveys, interviews and observation should provide important, new information about the impact of social networks on the success of the students we work with in our various educational settings."
Three additional research projects were selected as finalists for this year's award:
- Mary Bornheimer of McKendree University, "Transitioning From Soldiers to Students: the Nature and Effectiveness of Veteran Student Transition Program";
- Meghan E. Wilson of the University of Pennsylvania, "I'm a Freshman…Again: The First-Year Experience for Participants in a Comprehensive Dual Enrollment Program"; and
- Shannon Tinney of Loyola College (Md.), "In and Out of the Sophomore Year: Understanding the Role of Sophomore Programs in Students' Transitions."

Man tried to steal purse, police say
Published: Sunday, December 2, 2012 at 8:36 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, December 2, 2012 at 8:36 p.m.
A 28-year-old man was arrested early Sunday after police said he attempted to steal a purse from a woman on SW 6th St.
According to a Gainesville Police report, Marcus Hathorn jumped out from some trees, grabbed the woman and choked her, taking her purse out of her hands. As police approached, Hathorn dropped the woman's purse and ran into the woods.
The victim had minor scratches on her neck and was visibly shaken, police said.
Gainesville police tracked Hathorn with a K-9 officer and located him in the woods. Hathorn told police he ran into the woods because he was homeless and heard that the police did not like homeless people.
Hathorn was arrested on a charge of unarmed robbery.

Rules for telemarketing in the U.S. change Wednesday
Get ready to have less text messages and robocalls from telemarketers! That is as long as they follow new rules for trying to contact prospective customers.
Beginning October 16th, companies must have prior written consent of those they are trying to reach by text or by phone with an artificial or recorded voice with the intent to sell a product. Previously, telemarketers were allowed to use these methods with oral consent or an established prior business relationship.
For more on what this means for you and what it means for telemarketers, check out Bloomberg Law's article on the FCC's Tough New Telemarketing Rules

No matter what style of house you design or where it sits, conditioning its interior will consume a sizable portion of your client's maintenance budget. In fact, the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy at the U.S. Department of Energy says heating and cooling typically accounts for about 56 percent of overall energy usage, "making it the largest energy expense for most homes."
The internal comfort of a home is just as important as its architectural design, yet many homeowners are anything but cozy in their castles. Drafts and temperature differentials are common ailments that plague even new homes. Many factors can be blamed for the problem, but the heating system is often the primary cause.
in the hot seat Most American homeowners heat their houses with forced air or a boiler that distributes heat to radiators. Both systems have inefficiencies, however, so industry pros often pursue more comfortable, energy-efficient alternatives. Architect C. Joseph Vigil IV, president of Boulder, Colo.-based VaST, is sold on in-floor hydronic (liquid-based) radiant heat. "I spec it for every house I do," he says. His preferred installation consists of tubes cast in a 2.5-inch concrete slab; a central boiler that heats the water; and up to seven temperature-control zones, depending on the size of the house.
Vigil's own home has radiant heat on both levels. He cites several reasons for the choice. "A forced-air [system] has to blow a lot hotter than you imagine to warm a space," he explains. "That hot air rises and immediately goes to the ceiling and then migrates down to the floor, so it's inefficient." Radiant, on the other hand, "is much more comfortable, and you can set the temperature lower."
DOE agrees that radiant is more efficient than baseboard heating and usually more efficient than forced-air heating, because no energy is lost through ducts. "Hydronic systems use little electricity—a benefit for homes off the power grid or in areas with high electricity prices," it reports.
But radiant heat has its issues. Perhaps its biggest obstacle is initial expense. "A forced-air system in a new home would cost about $15,000, as a rule of thumb," Vigil says, but radiant "will cost you $30,000. My guess is that the payback is about 10 years." And because radiant only addresses heating, homeowners in warmer climates must pony up for a separate cooling system as well.
Some green building resources even go so far as to say that radiant systems aren't always necessary, as BuildingGreen.com did in "Radiant-Floor Heating: When It Does—and Doesn't—Make Sense" (2002). Unless a homeowner is using a solar energy source, radiant heat still relies on fossil fuels, thus depleting the environment of its resources. As an alternative, the National Biodiesel Board (NBB) in Jefferson City, Mo., suggests Bioheat, a fuel that combines biodiesel and traditional home heating oil. Jenna Higgins, NBB's director of communications, describes it as "nontoxic, biodegradable, and renewable."
Promoted mostly as a fuel for diesel-powered vehicles, biodiesel is comprised of 5 percent or 20 percent soybean oil or recycled cooking oil and home heating oil, and according to NBB, is a perfect additive or replacement fuel in a standard oil-fired furnace or boiler. Higgins says biodiesel reduces emissions when burned in home heating oil and costs either the same or slightly more per gallon than regular home heating oil.
But biodiesel has limited applications. The Washington, D.C.-based Energy Information Administration (EIA) reports that, of the 107 million households in the United States, roughly 8.1 million use heating oil as their main heating fuel; 6.3 million of those houses are in the Northeast alone. EIA's "Residential Heating Oil Prices: What Consumers Should Know" (2006) goes on to note that, "In other regions, older homes have been converted from oil heat to gas heat, and oil no longer has a noticeable share of the new-home construction market."
One ancient alternative with appealing potential is fire—in the form of pellet stoves and other high-efficiency wood heaters. Peter T. Schmelzer, AIA, LEED AP, president of Vivus Architecture + Design, Northfield, Minn., cites masonry heaters as a favorite spec. "A soapstone stove burns very hot and radiates that heat to the entire house," he explains. Even in cold climates, it can serve "as a primary source of heat."

text: Has anyone used their training system before? I saw part of some of their older videos earlier, I was wondering how well the system works. Looking at the documentation, they claim that their program not only prepares a person to earn a certification, but by demonstration of a subject, enabling a person to know what they are doing. (My words not theirs.) So, anyone know if its worth it?

Architects who've never been involved in a professional liability claim should count themselves lucky—and knock on wood. Those who have know how quickly a lawsuit can turn ugly. Litigation typically takes on a life of its own, consuming the feuding parties emotionally and financially. And in the end, the winners often find that the settlement amount wasn't worth the disruption to them and their families. The fallout from a court trial is broader, too. After each side finishes bringing out the big guns, any lingering hope of mending a broken relationship is gone. For all of those reasons, nearly a decade ago, insurance companies began asking policy-holders to use mediation to settle claims out of court. It's a voluntary, nonbinding process that involves hiring an impartial third party to help resolve the conflict—usually within a day. Back in the late 1980s, when architects began to hear about the use of mediation to clear up disputes, most shied away from the idea. Even after it began to gain widespread acceptance as a speedy way to resolve charges in the areas of civil rights and consumer protection, architects continued to view it as a sign of weakness, as though it would signal to their opponent that they didn't have a strong case. Enter the litigation-happy environment that grew out of a number of failed condo projects in the 1990s, and that attitude began to shift. Architecture firms began to realize how expensive and time-consuming a court trial is. Nowadays, mediation is considered standard, and AIA contracts typically mandate mediation as a practical first resort.
Of course, not every case should be mediated. Frank Musica, a risk management attorney at liability insurance provider Victor O. Schinnerer & Co., Chevy Chase, Md., says that when there is a clear-cut case of designer error, it's better to rectify the problem immediately. Conversely, when it's obvious a design firm is being dragged into litigation frivolously—say an injured construction worker is seeking more damages than he could get through workers' compensation—those cases are usually successfully fought in court. Of the 4,500 claims among Schinnerer/CNA's policy-holders each year, less than 1 percent go to litigation. They're either settled or mediated—80 percent of them successfully. Even among professionals who make a living in the judicial system, mediation is part of the protocol. "If you get all the way to trial, judges are going to ask, 'Have you mediated?'" says attorney (and architecture-degree-holder) Stanley Martin, a partner in Holland & Knight's Boston office. "If you say no, they're going to look at you sternly over the bench and suggest you do."
the blame game The nature of clashes arising from design and construction snafus make them particularly well suited to mediation. Usually the quarrel is about work quality or cost, and the lines of responsibility for project management often overlap. "Mistakes get made a lot, and no one is perfect, so black-and-white seldom exists," says Tom Gallas, a partner at Torti Gallas and Partners, Silver Spring, Md. Mediation is less confrontational and less threatening than litigation, and it gets everyone talking.
Gallas recalls a claim that arose after the firm had completed a large multifamily project in Tampa, Fla., a few years ago. According to the project's developer, the problem—inadequate head clearance on an exterior stair leading to a second-story apartment—would cost $125,000 to fix. The two parties agreed on a mediator—a former judge with construction knowledge—and Torti Gallas spent several days researching the file and preparing briefs with its attorney. On the big day, the judge got the two sides together to lay the ground rules and then sent them into different rooms. He spent time listening to each side's key points privately, and then reported back to the opponents. "He tried to get further information and share with us things that were salient to their point of view and [then] allow us a chance to rebut those, and vice versa," Gallas says.
After ping-ponging back and forth for the better part of the day, the judge recommended a resolution. But it took several more rounds to reach a compromise: Torti Gallas would pay $35,000, based on the discovery that both sides bore some responsibility for the error, which arose from incomplete drawings. The stair's height dimension had been noted on one drawing but not on a subsequent one. "We never say our drawings are perfect or totally complete," Gallas says. "If there was confusion, we maintain that that's what the request for information process is for—asking the architect to clarify."
Still, Gallas admits, "We did a few things that weren't exactly right, and so did the developer. Each party going in thought it was more clear-cut against the other party than it turned out to be. The value of mediation was to bring out those other points." And once each side was able to cut through the animosity and posturing—it took awhile, he says—the mediator was superb at drilling down to the real issues. "A lot of times, when it gets to this stage, people have to feel somewhat vindicated," Gallas says. "It's always an ego deflator when you realize that, well, you're mostly right but not 100 percent, and it's reasonable that there ought to be some way of acknowledging that to your client."
Not all powwows have a peaceful resolution, however. Alan Weiskopf, AIA, a managing partner at Perfido Weiskopf Wagstaff + Goettel Architects, Pittsburgh, wasn't impressed by his one mediation experience. The case, involving mechanical and electrical systems in a condo building that didn't perform up to specs, still isn't resolved. "The mediator didn't seem to have consensus-building capabilities," he says. "I don't think he was forceful enough. You have to listen, but eventually you have to push people toward a resolution." In this particular case, he adds, "it just didn't happen."
the middle man Boston attorney Martin has heard it said, only half-jokingly, that the M.O. of mediators falls into one of three categories—hashing, trashing, or bashing. At one end of the spectrum are those who try to get people to hash out an agreement on their own. The trash-style mediator tries to plant seeds of doubt on the viability of the opposing positions. The bashers are those who knock heads and apply a little more force to get people to agree. "You have to have parties who are thick-skinned for that to work," Martin says. For example, he once hired a tough-guy mediator, someone whom a lot of attorneys thought was rude, to successfully resolve a dispute between two hard-nosed contractors. "I think mediation is more likely to be successful when you look at the personalities of the clients and try to find someone who's going to be a good match," he says.
Unlike architecture or law, there is no licensing board or even certification for mediators. Most who have successful practices have hundreds of hours of course training, but they need only a basic 40-hour course to begin, and many sign on with private alternative dispute-resolution providers (ADRs) that establish their own requirements, such as the American Arbitration Association (www.adr.orgweaetxdyvaydzcwq) or JAMS (www.jamsadr.com), which specializes in the construction industry. Although mediators come from all professional backgrounds, most are retired judges who bring credibility from 25 years on the bench. "While anyone can become a mediator, there's a huge difference between hanging out a shingle and getting hired," says Los Angeles mediator and educator Lee Jay Berman, who heads up the Mediation Alliance. "This marketplace operates ... on a word-of-mouth basis."

Is "sustainability" enough for new women's league?
No question women's soccer fans today are thankful that there will be a third attempt at a professional league, as announced by U.S. Soccer President Sunil Gulati.
Gulati is certainly to be commended for the leading role U.S. Soccer and the Canadian and Mexican Federations are playing in the new league, essentially picking up the lion's share of player costs for the new league.
He had little choice. The move is basically protecting the U.S. Soccer's best interests and highly valuable assets in the Women's National Team players. A new league was going to happen anyway. Indeed, on the eve of the Olympic Gold Medal match, four teams, Boston, Sky Blue, Chicago and Seattle, announced they were forming a new league.
U.S. Soccer stepping in has headed off disaster and a possible repeat of the profound embarrassment generated by the magicJack situation in Florida the last year of the WPS. By paying the salaries of 24 players and controlling the league office, U.S. Soccer gets to keep better tabs on its players as they prepare for the 2015 World Cup. It was a smart move by the pragmatic Gulati. Better to have some control than a loose cannon.
But unless there are owners involved in the league who can carry it forward, I think we are looking at yet another three-year misfire, with the league playing in 2013, 2014, and 2015 but not surviving beyond the next Women's World Cup.
The buzzword on the Wednesday's hastily-called and ill-prepared-for conference call was sustainability. That's something the WUSA and WPS did not have. Both leagues folded after three years amidst a sea of losses. Many will say they spent too much. I would agree, but would also add that they invested too little.
Making soccer go in this country is a long-term proposition. A small group of well-heeled individuals understood that with the men's game, which is why MLS is as healthy as it is. Lamar Hunt, Phil Anschutz and Robert Kraft understood it was going to take money, lots of it, to make the new league work. Others who were in at the start didn't quite have the stomach or the deep pockets to stick with it. That's why Anschutz ended up owning five teams at one point, Hunt three and the Krafts for a time not only holding their own in New England, but propping up San Jose as well.
Visionaries with deep pockets. That's what women's soccer has lacked. MLS was sustainable because the ownership could afford and was willing to lose $100 million before things started turning around. Indeed, there were some lean years, and some will give credit to Anschutz shelling out for David Beckham as a turning point. Maybe so.
But women's soccer has now substituted the word "sustainability" for operating on the cheap. The owners in this new league will have the federation picking up a large chunk of the player expenses. The owner of the Boston Breakers says the teams will economize further by cutting back from WPS levels on other expenses like marketing and the front office. Problem is, most of the teams in the WPS already thought marketing was having a Twitter account, and what they called front offices would not sustain a single-A baseball club.
Perhaps the investors will then be looking for a watershed moment, one that sends the women's game over the top. Oh, like Brandi Chastain's winning penalty kick, or the never say die attitude of the U.S. Women and their incredible comebacks in the 2011 World Cup, or winning a Gold Medal in 2012.
Women's soccer has already had those watershed moments. It just never had the ownership to translate them into viability. I fear it still doesn't.
