I was fortunate enough to join my collegaue Erin on a trip to Minominee Falls, Wisconsin to check on the printing of our catalogs for the upcoming Fall/Holiday season! We spent time looking over each page of our delicous gourmet brownies, cookies, and bars and making sure our brownie gifts look as good as they taste. It is a good thing we brought some with us, because it is hard looking at so many pages of delicious treats and not wanting to eat some!
If you want to send mail order brownies this holiday season, head over here to make sure your name is on our mailing list!

How to Slaughter a Turkey
You can burn some steaks in it, and you can cook steak and eggs in the same pan for breakfast. You can also bake cornbread and cakes in it — with a 15-inch skillet, you don't even need a cake pan anymore. Line the bottom with parchment paper, make a cake mix, and throw that in there in the oven. It's the MacGyver of pans. You can even roast a whole chicken in it. (15-1/4" cast-iron skillet, $48.98, cooking.com)
On How to Clean Cast-Iron:
Some people say never to wash cast-iron, and that's okay. But if the pan isn't really dirty, the trick is dumping a half-cup of kosher salt in it, scouring out the guck that's stuck to it, and putting it right back on the heat. If you do have to wash it, if you've kind of gone a little crazy — which a lot of people do — it's about not being too abrasive while washing it. I'm okay with a little bit of soap and water and a little soft sponge. Just go from the wash, onto the stove, full heat, and once all the water is evaporated, hit it with a little bit of pan spray, and you're good to go. The biggest mistake is air-drying, or letting it drip dry.
First of all, this will protect your pants. That's absolutely the primary reason this is important. And I just think you look more pro with the bistro. White T-shirt, some jeans, a bistro apron — you're looking much better than that butcher look. Which is not "sexy." This is the ticket to getting style points. If you've got friends coming over, you're looking like Bobby Flay on Grill It!. You're never going to catch him in a white butcher apron. This isn't American Psycho. (Bistro apron, $12.95, chefwear.com)

Kirk Botkin
Kirk Botkin begins his fourth year with the Gamecocks. He was tabbed as South Carolina's linebackers and Spurs coach on January 13, 2012. He will coach the linebackers (Mike, Will and Sam) in 2015.
In 2014, Botkin's linebacking corps was led by sophomore Skai Moore, who paced the team with 93 tackles, the most for a Gamecock since Jasper Brinkley logged 107 in 2006, and the second-straight year he has headed the squad. Three of the top four tacklers on the team, Moore, Jonathan Walton and Sharrod Golightly, worked under Botkin's guidance. The linebackers and Spurs combined to lead the team in sacks while recording five interceptions. Botkin's troops have totaled 14 interceptions over the past two seasons, including seven by Moore.
With a slew of rookie linebackers, Botkin oversaw a group that showed tremendous progress as the 2013 season unfolded. Despite listing just one junior, three sophomores, two redshirt freshmen and three true freshmen among the three-deep at his three positions, the Gamecocks were able to rank in the nation's top-20 in both total defense (19th) and scoring defense (12th). Carolina linebackers picked off nine passes during the season. True freshman linebacker Skai Moore paced the team in tackles with 56 and in interceptions with four, en route to Freshman All-SEC honors. Junior Spur Sharrod Golightly was a second-team All-SEC selection.
In his first season with the Gamecocks, Botkin had a veteran group to work with, as his top five players, linebackers Shaq Wilson, Reginald Bowens, Damario Jeffery and Quin Smith, along with starting Spur DeVonte Holloman, were all seniors in 2012.
Botkin returned to the collegiate coaching ranks after spending the previous two seasons coaching high school football at Texas High School in Texarkana, Texas. He spent the 2008 and `09 seasons coaching the defensive ends and special teams at his alma mater, Arkansas, under Bobby Petrino, including one season alongside Gamecocks' defensive coordinator Lorenzo Ward.
Botkin was the Razorbacks' first All-SEC performer as a tight end in 1992 and `93, and served as a captain during his senior season. He graduated with a bachelor's degree in education. He was later named to the Razorbacks' All-Decade team for the 1990s after logging 87 career receptions for 819 yards and five touchdowns.
Botkin spent four years in the NFL, including playing for Bill Parcells in New England (1994), Jim Mora in New Orleans (1994-95) and Bill Cowher in Pittsburgh (1996-97). After an injury ended his career, he began his coaching career at his hometown high school of Robert E. Lee High in Baytown, Texas in 1999. In 2000 he worked as a graduate assistant at Rice University in Houston.
From 2001-05, Botkin served as an assistant coach at Jacksonville State University, first as a tight ends/offensive tackles coach, then as an outside linebackers/special teams coach. While at JSU, the squad won the Ohio Valley Conference in 2003 and `04 and coached seven all-conference performers.
Between stints at Jacksonville State and Arkansas, Botkin spent two seasons coaching linebackers and special teams at Louisiana-Monroe. In 2007, he helped the Warhawks record their first non-losing season in 14 years, including a win at Alabama.
Botkin and his wife, the former Rebecca Holloway, have three children, Lane, Ty and Brynn.

David Bowie Returns With The Next Day
March 12, 2013 marked the official debut of David Bowie's highly anticipated new album, The Next Day. A welcome return for the revered British musical icon, The Next Day is Bowie's first studio album release in ten years. In January 2013, Bowie celebrated his 66th birthday by announcing the imminent release of the album, sending tidal waves of excitement through his communities of fans and the press worldwide. The announcement was coupled with the release of a new single, "Where Are We Now," an introspective, nostalgic echo of classic Bowie. Recorded and written in secret over the past two years with longtime producer Tony Visconti, The Next Day is another success for Bowie, who has released a staggering 24 albums throughout his career. Called a "four-star masterwork of beauty and complexity" by USA Today, fans can enjoy Bowie's "glorious homecoming" on TouchTunes jukeboxes nationwide.
Bon Jovi Releases What About Now
American rock legends Bon Jovi take the world by storm with the release of their twelfth studio album, What About Now.

Produced by 6-time Grammy nominee and Grammy Producer of the Year John Shanks, What About Now has been called an impressive return to the band's rock roots. The album, now being promoted on TouchTunes, is led by the first single, "Because We Can," which hit radio on January 7th and received 5 out of 5 stars from Artistdirect. In support of the new record, Bon Jovi has embarked on "Because We Can - The Tour," a lengthy world tour that started in February and will include legs in North America, Europe, Africa and Australia.

I met Sunny von bulow more than two decades before I fell in love with her husband, Claus von bulow.
"Been selling the bulow people for twenty-five years," he informed me.
bulow shrugged her shoulders, answering, 'I don't know at all!'
They were near the wagon now; both dismounted under the pines while bulow came forward to picket their horses.
I wondered if it was truly a big bank, and why it should hold an interest in bulow and Company.
bulow should have received the order to march westward at half-past ten on the morning of the 15th.
I finally asked, thinking of the possibilities in bulow and Company's movements.
bulow is a wonderful conductor, a little man, all nerve and fire, and he seems to inspire every instrument.
The fact that bulow and Company wanted to destroy him flashed through my mind.
When old bulow died the business was incorporated by the heirs, and then this fellow shows up with a big say, executively.

Hey guys! This should probably be my last thread for awhile, but I was hoping someone could help me wit this issue I'm having. I'm following Xploitz video tutorial of him cracking WPA2 with Backtrack 2. I'm using Backtrack 4 Beta, and I'm running into two issues.
1) In the beginning of the video, I type in "airmon-ng stop wlan0" then
"airmon-ng start wlan0" though it says monitor mode is enabled on mon0, which I have no idea what that means. But my bigger issue is this coming up one
2) When I get to the airodump-ng -c 6 -w psk --bssid: 00:00:00:00:00 part, it's supposed to look like this
i42. tinypic. com/ 2reqqtg .png <--- It's spaced apart
The part that's circled in red, doesn't show up for me though. Also the "Pwr" part is in the negatives 50's for me. Anyone ideas about that? So yeah, if anyone can figure out why the station doesn't show up for me, I'll owe ya a big one
Of course, if you really wanted to have some fun, go to Wal-Mart late at night and ask the greeter if they could help you find trashbags, roll of carpet, rope, quicklime, clorox and a shovel. See if they give you any strange looks. --Streaker69
Google is going to become your next best friend if your serous about this.
Backtrack isnt much designed for someone who just follows steps in a video, sure seeing what there doing is great, but almost everyone here researches the hell out of what they see so they know whats going on.
I will say that the negative numbers are a known bug, but you really should have figured that out on your own as its not hard with a few short experiments to find out.
"man airodump-ng" is also helpful
Good Luck
Using backtrack for the first time is like being 10 years old again with the keys to a Ferrari.
Whoa guys, I'm trying to learn here. it seems some people on this forum really don't like noobs who are actually trying to learn. I appreciate the help, but not at the expense of sarcasm and belittling comments ) : I'll see how the "man airodump-ng" command serves me.
EDIT: I'm gonna use Backtrack 3 instead of Beta 4, since 3 is more stable, and not quite as glitchy. One thing though, shouldn't the "man airodump-ng" command be "man0" instead of just "man"? I'm not trying to sound like a noob, since I'm not a huge noob fan in my own area of expertise, but this is still pretty new to me

Re: Actuarial ScienceMandy Runnalls Jan 31, 2014 8:34 AM (in response to Peter Yim)
Hey Peter! At least for MSOE, I do not believe you would have to choose any sort of track within actuary right away, typically that comes around Junior year for our students.
I'm going to have Dr. Yvonne Yaz weigh in on this though as she is our Actuarial Science Program Director!
Re: Actuarial ScienceMandy Runnalls Jan 31, 2014 8:39 AM (in response to Mandy Runnalls)
Also in addition, correct me if I am wrong Dr. Yaz, there are two societies (different names but they give the same exam!) that you could take an exam with and that is done Junior year. It also sounds like once you get those done and get your job that companies understand that you have more exams to take and are pretty good with helping you get materials to study as well as time to study!
Re: Actuarial ScienceYvonne Yaz Jan 31, 2014 6:13 PM (in response to Mandy Runnalls)
This is Yvonne Yaz, I guess I missed your question. If you can repeat it to me, the I may be able to help you.
Dr. Yaz
Re: Actuarial SciencePeter Yim Jan 31, 2014 9:45 PM (in response to Yvonne Yaz)
Hi Dr. Yaz,
My questions is does the college you choose determine what type of actuarial track you work at?
- Peter
Re: Actuarial ScienceYvonne Yaz Jan 31, 2014 10:32 PM (in response to Peter Yim)
Hi Peter,
No it is up to you. If the students get an opportunity of trying different areas, such as casualty, health, pension, or financial institutions throughout their internship, that may help them to determine their direction in the future. As you may know the first two exams, which are kind of a requirement lately, to find a job, have nothing to do with the tracks. The later exams are more specific to the track an AS professional chooses.
I hope this helps. If you have any other questions, please let me know.
Dr. Yaz

LONG BEACH - Water quality is improving at the Colorado Lagoon and dredging is on schedule for completion in July.
All permits - often a factor in delaying projects - are in place, and it's been smooth sailing for the second phase of the ambitious restoration effort, according to Eric Lopez, Tidelands capital projects program manager.
"It's been moving forward on schedule," he said this week.
A city ceremony has not been set, but a date could be tentatively scheduled for mid-August, according to project manager Onofre Ramirez, of Public Works' engineering bureau.
The dredging work is being finished less than two years after the city's November 2010 completion of the project's first phase, including: The low-flow diversion of urban runoff to redirect it into the sanitary sewer system; installation of trash-traps to prevent debris from entering the lagoon from the three remaining major storm drain outlets; and cleaning the culvert to improve tidal circulation in the lagoon; and install a graded channel with plants to help naturally filter golf-course runoff.
The first-phase work alone has improved water quality, Lopez said.
"It's role was critical," he added.
The Colorado Lagoon, at 5114 Colorado St., is 27 acres, with about 13 acres of water, Ramirez said.
The lagoon saw a dramatic reduction in litter after the first phase. Average counts of litter and debris decreased by 86 percent at the culvert trash rack and nearly 97 percent along the south shoreline, officials said.
Los Angeles County also completed the Termino Avenue Drain project, which helped improve water quality.
Long Beach received about $16 million in grants to improve water quality at the Colorado Lagoon, according to Lopez.
The first-phase improvements were funded by an American Recovery and Reinvestment Act grant for $4.3 million from the State Water Resources Control Board and $1.3 million from the Port of Long Beach.
The cost of the lagoon dredging is about $7 million, funded mostly by $300,000 in grants from the State Coastal Conservancy; $690,997 from the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration; $3.8 million from the State Water Resources Control Board; $835,000 from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; and $1.1 million from the Rivers and Mountains Conservancy.
The dredging phase - by AIS Construction Co. - includes moving 59,000 cubic yards of sediment to the port by the end of July, according to Ramirez.
The next major phase in the restoration project is to construct an open channel to replace the underground culvert to Marine Stadium. However, funding for this future project component hasn't yet been secured.
"That's on a wish list at this point," Ramirez said, adding that the design-work funding has not been sought.
A parking lot on the north side of the lagoon will be removed by AIS Construction, and Friends of the Colorado Lagoon volunteers will restore the area with native plants, Ramirez said.
Long Beach, which sits at the mouth of the polluted Los Angeles River, has suffered years of poor water quality.
City improvements appear to be paying off, as Long Beach showed a significant jump in beach quality during summer dry weather, especially at the Colorado Lagoon, officials said.
Last month, the environmental organization Heal the Bay Report Card showed that 93 percent of Long Beach beaches earned an A or B grade during dry weather, compared with just 27 percent last year.
The most significant improvement in water quality was at Colorado Lagoon, which received one A and one B, and has been removed from Heal the Bay's list of "Beach Bummers."
Heal the Bay, a nonprofit environmental group based in Santa Monica, credited the vast improvement to city sewer repairs, storm drain diversion efforts and disinfection projects.
"The city leaders should get credit for keeping the project on track," Lopez said.

That's just wrong... but I did lol... :laugh2:
So Salt, who is that girl?
Nice. Do you know if the graph is based on real data?
I often use the correlation between murder rates and ice cream sales to demonstrate that correlation does NOT imply causation.
Speaking of correlation...
This has got to be a Costco.
Goodness i think we all need a few minutes of privacy after that video....lol...
Reminder .. this is a thread for wacky images only!
There are plenty of sites on the internet for people to get their giggles or whatever over sexy photos of women, men or whatever your preference. Please keep them out of this thread.
So why is this thread so unique that it can't stray off-topic but there are countless other threads that have good discussion constantly ruined by people with Jerry and Jason agendas?
Just an honest question.
Well, there you went and did it. Are ya proud of yourfself? /sarcasm

yes yes yes!!! potential to be an unbelievable fight
Last edited by londonpride; 22-08-2013 at 08:24 AM.
"The more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in war"
Would be a good fight to watch. Looks like Kavanagh has said he wants Conor to fight him, Diego has mad skills.
Brandao needs to improve his conditioning or Conor will make a mess of him later on
Conor can have a field day with Brandao's striking and pick him apart imo.
What you need to remember is Diego can knock you out, he can also submit you. He's finished 14 of his 18 wins by either KO or SUB. I'm sure Jackson will come up with some sort of game plan.
I'd expect his grappling game to be better than Conors as well, if he wrestles... Who knows.
Should be a decent watch.
conor looked pretty dominant on the ground against a bjj purple belt. should be pretty even on the ground (submission ability aside) and stand up could be a war both look lethal when they strike and are highly entertaining with the strikes and ammount they throw!
"The more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in war"
Potential to be a great match up, Brandao will defo come to fight. He will need to improve his conditioning tho.
Im gona come at you like a SPIDERMONKEY.....you hear that a SPIDERMONKEY
If Connor wins he deserves the hype. In my eyes heas already a superstar but if we talking ufc hype its another story.
Retired 2k and out.

LV Review-Journal publisher Frederick pushes ridiculous Obama affair rumor
Blog ››› ››› BRIAN FREDERICK
In a May 1 blog post titled "Obama affair?" Las Vegas Review-Journal publisher Sherman Frederick wrote:
The Internet is re-exploding today with a story about an alleged affair in 2004 between Sen. Barack Obama and a bombshell campaign worker by the name of Vera Baker.
Inquiring minds may Google (or Bing) "Obama Affair Vera Baker".
Frederick is proving once again that he will publish any smear of Obama and the Democrats no matter how poorly sourced and dated it is. For the publisher of a major American newspaper to be engaged in spreading salacious rumors is disgraceful.
(Side note: Why does Frederick call Baker a "bombshell campaign worker"?)
But the funny thing is, Frederick encourages his readers to search Google for more information about the affair. In fact, Media Matters' Jeremy Schulman did just that:
A quick Google and Nexis search, for instance, reveals that the story is little more than years-old, rehashed rumors that have long been denied and have never been supported with anything approximating credible evidence.
Inquiring minds may instead want to Google "Sherman Frederick conservative misinformation."

The judge agreed with the court investigator that Canning is spoiled and that parents should not live in fear of enforcing rules because their kids might sue them for financial support of they don't agree with the rules. There is a hearing scheduled for next month where the judge will decide if Rachel Canning is entitled to the college fund her parents established for her. The only way that will happen is if the same investigator who deemed her spoiled somehow now says that Canning left home on her own or her parents were abusive and kicked her out which is what Canning is alleging. I think she will be out of luck but maybe the family will kiss and makeup prior to that hearing. I can't believe it has gone on this long.

Assiya Rafiq is my hero
Assiya Rafiq of Pakistan was sold at 16 by a female family friend to two criminals who were related to prominent politicians. The men beat and raped her for the next year, until they handed Assiya along with $625 over to police as a bribe. Assiya's kidnappers had earlier been implicated in a gold robbery and decided Assiya would be a good candidate to blame the crime on.
Assiya was then beaten and raped by the four police officers, including a police chief, over the next two weeks. Reportedly, a female constable would leave in order to give the men continue their abuse in private.
Assiya's family learned of Assiya's whereabouts and attempted to get her back by bribing the bailiff, …

Hey all,
I have a question about vitakka. Is there a basis in the Abhidhamma for 'different levels' or 'intensities' of vitakka?
During meditation on 'Buddho', access concentration is the highest achievable since the qualities of the buddha are so manyfold. This is stated in the Visudhimagga and the abhidhammattha sangaha, as jhana is not attainable, only access concentration. In practice it seems that meditating on (the sound of) buddho means getting citta to be more and more to be first kusala sobhana citta. In the first sobhana kusala citta the jhana factors are present (as factors of concentration) and since 'buddho' (at least how I know it) is samatha meditation, and in practice concentration seems to get deeper an deeper, I wondered if anything is mentioned in the Abhidhamma about Vitakka and its intensities (I mean like piti which has different intensities).
I hope my question is a little bit clear... And of course that somebody can give his/her opinion!

November 27, 2012 -- Bullying. It's a funny-sounding word, but there is nothing humorous about this behavior of unwanted, repeated, aggressive actions, whether it is verbal, social, physical or online. Northwestern Oklahoma State University's Upward Bound program will shed some light on this topic Saturday at 1:30 p.m. in Herod Hall Auditorium as it welcomes Kirk and Laura Smalley of Perkins to the Alva campus for a free public lecture. The Smalleys will share their personal story of how bullying affected their son Ty.
MISSION STATEMENT: Northwestern Oklahoma State University provides quality educational and cultural opportunities to learners with diverse needs by cultivating ethical leadership and service, critical thinking and fiscal responsibility.

74th Annual Allstate Sugar Bowl ~ January 1, 2008
#4 Georgia 41 (Final: 11-2, #2)
#10 Hawai'i 10 (Final: 12-1, #19)
"Aloha,'' most people on the U.S. mainland know, means both "hello'' and "goodbye'' in Polynesian. And while the people of New Orleans welcomed the islanders to the Big Easy, the Georgia Bulldogs used the other definition to send the Warriors back home.
While Hawai'i entered the contest with a gaudy offense, the game was characterized by one play: Georgia defensive end Marcus Howard sped through the shredded Hawaii line, took aim at his target, and crashed into back-peddling Heisman finalist Colt Brennan at the Warriors' 5-yard line. The ball popped free and rolled into the end zone, where Howard recovered it for the score.
The touchdown for Howard gave him as many as the vaunted Warrior run-and-shoot offense would get for the night. It lifted the third-quarter score to 31-3 as the Bulldogs dispatched the upstarts from the islands.
Brennan - and Hawai'i - got a stiff dose of reality in going against the SEC's Bulldogs. The Warriors' quarterback was sacked eight times for minus 53 yards, and was hurried or hit on at least that many when he did get a pass off. He threw three interceptions and lost two fumbles while finishing 22-of-38 for 164 yards, less than half of his 348-yard average. Hawai'i as a team was held to 306 yards, 228 fewer than its average - and 151 of that total came in the fourth quarter.
"It just shows it's not always about offense,'' said Howard, the game's MVP after recording three sacks, forcing two fumbles, and tipping a ball that turned into a Bulldog interception. "Defense wins ball games, and that's what happened tonight.''
Bulldogs Head Coach Mark Richt, a little surprised himself, said, "Our guys just kept coming. We wanted to force Colt (Brennan) to throw faster than he wanted to. We really didn't think we'd get that many sacks, and we knew when they did complete passes we had to give up zero yards after the catch. Our guys tackled extremely well today.''
Georgia scored the first four times it had the ball, on runs of 17 and 11 yards by redshirt freshman tailback Knowshon Moreno, a 52-yard field goal by senior kicker Brandon Coutu, and an 11-yard touchdown pass from sophomore quarterback Matt Stafford to senior wide receiver Sean Bailey. That made the score 24-3 midway through the second quarter, and school was out for Hawaii.
"That was the fastest team I've probably ever seen,'' a dazed Brennan said afterward. "We just couldn't get into our groove and do what we wanted."
"It's great to be here in New Orleans and win this game," Howard said. "I just wish we would have been here one week later."
Recap excerpted from the book "Sugar Bowl Classic: A History" by Marty Mulé, who covered the game and the organization for decades for the New Orleans Times-Picayune.

SPRINGFIELD, IL -- The Illinois Gaming Board said that its central computer system is ready, and that video lottery terminals have been installed in dozens of locations. The Illinois video lottery, serviced by independent operators, could roll out by Labor Day.
An IGB spokesman said the gaming board will test VLTs in five sites for a two-week period. If the results are good, the central system will then be activated for all licensed locations.
So far, 89 locations have been licensed for video lottery terminals, which could run up to 445 games in total. Eventually, the Illinois VLT market could expand to an installed base of 75,000 games. | SEE STORY

Right-Wing Media Hype Study Suggesting Public School Teachers Are Overpaid
Right-wing media have hyped a study published by conservative groups American Enterprise Institute (AEI) and the Heritage Foundation that claims "public-school teachers are not underpaid in wages by private-sector standards, and they may even be overpaid." But many other studies have shown that public school teachers are paid relatively less than comparable workers, that their wages have been declining for decades, that U.S. teachers are paid less than their counterparts in most other Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries, and that low teacher pay hurts recruitment and retention.
Right-Wing Media Hype Study Suggesting That Public School Teachers Are "Overpaid"
Wash. Exam. Hypes Conservative Study Finding That "Public-School Teachers Are Not Underpaid In Wages By Private-Sector Standards, And They May Even Be Overpaid." In an October 31 editorial titled, "Public school teachers make more than private sector workers," The Washington Examiner hyped an AEI/Heritage study that found "that when public school teachers and private sector workers are compared objectively on the basis of cognitive skills -- rather than years of service or educational attainment -- the educators enjoy higher compensation." From the editorial:
[O]ur headline captures the essence of an important new study being released today by Jason Richwine of the Heritage Foundation's Center for Data Analysis and American Enterprise Institute's Andrew Biggs. Richwine and Biggs found that when public school teachers and private sector workers are compared objectively on the basis of cognitive skills -- rather than years of service or educational attainment -- the educators enjoy higher compensation -- contrary to the claims of union officials in public debate and in negotiations with school boards.
This is seen most dramatically when workers switch from non-teaching jobs to teaching jobs. Such a move typically results in a wage increase of approximately nine percent. "Teachers who change to non-teaching jobs, on the other hand, see their wages decrease by roughly 3 percent. This is the opposite of what one would expect if teachers were underpaid," Richwine and Biggs said.
The biggest factor in the compensation advantage enjoyed by public school teachers is not wages, however, but rather fringe benefits, which typically are substantially more generous than those paid to private sector workers in cognitively comparable positions. Public school teacher pension programs routinely offer higher benefits, thanks to the traditional calculation that lower salaries would be partially offset by more generous retirement packages. Also significant here is the provision by public school pension programs of paid or low-cost health insurance programs for retirees. Richwine and Biggs found the presence of retiree health benefits adds about 10 percent to the total value of public teacher compensation. As much as another 8.6 percent is added when the value of public school teacher job security is added to the comparison. [The Washington Examiner, 10/31/11 [1]]
Wash. Exam. Plugs AEI/Heritage Claim That "Teacher Compensation Could ... Be Reduced With Only Minor Effects On Recruitment And Retention." From the October 31 editorial:
Nationally, this disparity in compensation means that, while comparisons based solely on salary often do find a disadvantageous wage-gap for public school teachers, the bottom-line changes dramatically when benefits are considered. "More generous fringe benefits for public-school teachers, including greater job security, make total compensation 52 percent greater than fair market levels, equivalent to more than $120 billion overcharged to taxpayers each year. Teacher compensation could therefore be reduced with only minor effects on recruitment and retention," Richwine and Biggs conclude. [The Washington Examiner, 10/31/11 [1]]
Weekly Standard: "This Study Could Go A Long Way Toward Puncturing The Myth That Most Of The Nation's Teachers Are Poorly Compensated." In a November 1 post headlined, "Study Concludes Public School Teacher Salaries $120 Billion Over Market Value," The Weekly Standard wrote:
Those on the left are wont to complain that government employees are under assault [sic] these days because GOP politicians are going after public sector unions and generous deals they've leveraged through collective bargaining. The standard defense of civil service workers is, yes, they might have good benefits and more job stability but these things are necessary because public sector workers earn significantly less than private sector counterparts.
Well, a new study [2] by the American Enterprise Institute's Andrew Biggs and Jason Richwine from the Heritage foundation concludes that America's public school teachers are just flat out overpaid. The headline numbers from the study are this: Teacher pay nationally is about $120 billion over market value, and teachers who switch to teaching from other jobs get a 9 percent pay rise, while people who leave teaching typically take a 3 percent pay cut.
Public school teachers have traditionally been treated as something of a sacred cow in political debates. This study could go a long way toward puncturing the myth that most of the nation's teachers are poorly compensated. [The Weekly Standard, 11/1/11 [3]]
Limbaugh: "The Bottom Line With This Is ... [Teachers] Make More Than Private Sector Workers." On the November 1 broadcast of Rush Limbaugh's radio show, Limbaugh hyped the study, saying:
LIMBAUGH: I mentioned earlier in the program today that I would be telling you of a shocking study on the truth of what public school teachers earn. A couple of researchers looked into this, and the Washington Examiner editorializes today, and the headline of their piece is: "Public School Teachers Make More Than Private Sector Workers."
Now, the reason I'm gonna spend some time on this is because we always hear about how teachers don't earn anything and they're so important.
The bottom line with this is that it's another piece of conventional wisdom that has now been stood on its head. That compared to others, public school teachers are desperately underpaid. They're not. They make more than private sector workers, and that's becoming accurate to say about every public sector versus private sector job. The average public sector employee makes almost twice when you factor benefits into the picture what a private sector person makes. Now, some of you might say, "So what, Rush. I thought you were for everybody doing well." Oh, I am, don't misunderstand. But private sector people are the ones who are paying the public sector people. That becomes a problem. [Premiere Radio Networks, The Rush Limbaugh Show, 11/1/11 [4]]
But Many Experts Agree Teachers Are Paid Less Than Comparable Workers ...
EPI: "Public School Teachers In 2010 Earned About 12 Percent Less Than Comparable Workers" In Weekly Earnings. A March 2011 issue brief from the Economic Policy Institute (EPI), "The Teaching Penalty: An update through 2010," found that:
Trends in weekly earnings (Table 1) show that public school teachers in 2010 earned about 12% less than comparable workers, a gap equivalent to that found in our 2004 study. The weekly earnings disadvantage for teachers relative to comparable workers grew by 10.5 percentage points between 1979 and 2010, with most of the erosion (8.2 percentage points) occurring between 1996 and 2001. This increase in wage disparity for teachers is particularly troublesome because the 1990s recovery was one of the few periods in recent decades of strong overall wage growth for workers.
The report estimated that when "nonwage benefits of K-12 teachers" were taken into account, the weekly compensation disadvantage for teachers in 2010 was "about 9.0%." [EPI, 3/30/11 [5]]
NEA: 62 Percent Of Teachers Have Second Jobs Outside Of The Classroom. A 2006 National Education Association (NEA) report found that 62 percent of teachers have second jobs outside of the classroom. [NEA, accessed 11/2/11 [6], via The Teacher Salary Project]
Department Of Education: 92.4 Percent Of Teachers Spend Their Own Money On Teaching Materials. According to the U.S. Department of Education, during the 2007-2008 school year, 92.4 percent of teachers used their own money to pay for classroom supplies. [Department of Education, accessed 11/2/11 [6], via The Teacher Salary Project]
Politico: "Michelle Rhee ... Whom Labor Often Casts As A Crypto-Conservative ... [Writes,] 'We Do Not Agree That Teachers Are Overpaid.' " Politico's Ben Smith wrote in a November 1 blog post:
Michelle Rhee -- a prominent figure in the reform movement whom labor often casts as a crypto-conservative -- sends over a statement:
No, we do not agree that teachers are overpaid. Under the status quo in most school districts, good classroom teachers are not only undervalued in pay, but as professionals generally. At the same time teachers who aren't effective in the classroom are not getting the feedback or help they need. Or when a teacher has demonstrated that they can't become effective in the classroom they are being protected by outdated rules and diluting the value of effective teachers. By elevating the profession with meaningful accountability, merit pay and increased professional development we can more closely match our commitment to teachers to their true value.
While we need to be mindful of how much money we are putting into the system, the questions we should also be asking are 'what are we getting for that money' and 'can it be used more effectively.' We can accomplish the goal of attracting and retaining the best teachers and be fiscally responsible at the same time by moving money out of bloated bureaucracies that doesn't improve student learning and into the classroom where it can.
We did this successfully in Washington where we significantly cut central administration funding and moved that money into classroom resources including increasing the average teacher salary from $67,000 to $81,000 a year. Subsequently, we saw student learning increase as measured by independent national assessments. [Politico, 11/1/11 [7], emphasis added]
"Labor Nemesis" Democrats For Education Reform: "We Think Teachers Are Paid Too Little For What They Are Tasked To Do." In a separate Politico blog post, Smith published a response to the study from Democrats for Education, a group Smith described as "typically a labor nemesis":
Charles Barone, director of federal policy for Democrats for Education Reform -- typically a labor nemesis -- said lower pay wouldn't encourage improvement among teachers:
We think teachers are paid too little for what they are tasked to do, but that far too little is expected of them compared to the task at hand. Paying them less won't help kids. Expecting more of them, and paying them accordingly will, as we are seeing in DC, one of the few states that showed gains on the NAEP scores released today. [Politico, 11/2/11 [8]]
American Federation Of Teachers: Study "Uses Misleading Statistics And Questionable Research." NPR published a statement from the American Federation of Teachers, one of the largest unions in the country, that criticized the study's methodology:
This report contains a number of ridiculous assertions, such as arbitrarily assigning 8.6 percent as a "job security premium" teachers supposedly enjoy. This "job security premium" is pure fiction, given the 278,000 public education jobs that have been lost during this recession. There's no basis for this claim -- it's simply a placeholder used to lead to AEI's conclusion. In our business, such reasoning would get a flunking grade.
The truth -- backed by reputable research -- is that few, if any, workers subsidize their professions like teachers. America's teachers spend hundreds of dollars per year on classroom supplies for their students and work longer hours than their peers in other nations, including late afternoons, evenings and weekends grading papers, preparing lesson plans, talking with students and their parents, and other school-related work. [NPR, 11/1/11 [9]]
... Teacher Pay Has Been Declining For Years ...
NYT Op-Ed: "The Average Teacher's Pay Is On Par With That Of A Toll Taker Or Bartender. ... In Real Terms, Teachers' Salaries Have Declined For 30 Years." In an April 30 New York Times op-ed, Dave Eggers and Nínive Clements Calegari, founders of the 826 National tutoring centers, wrote:
At the moment, the average teacher's pay is on par with that of a toll taker or bartender. Teachers make 14 percent less than professionals in other occupations that require similar levels of education. In real terms, teachers' salaries have declined for 30 years. The average starting salary is $39,000; the average ending salary -- after 25 years in the profession -- is $67,000. This prices teachers out of home ownership in 32 metropolitan areas, and makes raising a family on one salary near impossible.
So how do teachers cope? Sixty-two percent work outside the classroom to make ends meet. For Erik Benner, an award-winning history teacher in Keller, Tex., money has been a constant struggle. He has two children, and for 15 years has been unable to support them on his salary. Every weekday, he goes directly from Trinity Springs Middle School to drive a forklift at Floor and Décor. He works until 11 every night, then gets up and starts all over again. Does this look like "A Plan," either on the state or federal level? [The New York Times, 4/30/11 [10]]
McKinsey: "Average Teacher Salaries Have Fallen Significantly As A Percentage Of GDP Per Capita Over The Past 30 Years." From a 2010 McKinsey & Co. study:
[T]he difference in starting salaries and other professions wasn't as large [in the 1960s and 1970s]. In 1970 in New York City, for example, a starting lawyer going into a prestigous firm and a starting teacher going into public education had a differential in their entry salary of about $2,000. Today, including salary and bonus, that starting lawyer makes $160,000, while starting teachers in New York make roughly $45,000.
[A]verage teacher salaries have fallen significantly as a percentage of GDP per capita over the past 30 years, reducing the relative rewards of teaching (see exhibit 1). Today starting teacher salaries average $39,000 nationally, and rise to an overall average of $54,000, with an average maximum salary of $67,000. This does not compare favorably to other professional options for top college graduates, particularly in major metropolitan areas (see exhibit 2 for an international comparison). [McKinsey & Co. report, September 2010 [11]]
... U.S. Teachers Are Paid Less Than Their Counterparts Internationally ...
OECD Report: Experienced Public School Teachers In U.S. Make "96 Percent Of The Country's [GDP] Per Capita," While OECD Average Is "117 Percent Of G.D.P. Per Capita." Linking to a 2007 OECD report, the New York Times blog Economix noted that primary education teachers in the U.S. with 15 years of experience are typically paid lower than in most other OECD countries. From the post:
American teachers' pay is more middling. The average public primary-school teacher who has worked 15 years and has received the minimum amount of training, for example, earns $43,633, compared to the O.E.C.D. average of $39,007.
Comparing each country's teacher salaries to the wealth of that country makes United States educational salaries appear lower. In the United States, a teacher with 15 years of experience makes a salary that is 96 percent of the country's gross domestic product per capita. Across the O.E.C.D., a teacher of equivalent experience makes 117 percent of G.D.P. per capita. At the high end of the scale, in Korea, the average teacher at this level makes a full 221 percent of the country's G.D.P. per capita.
The post included the following graph:

Education Policy Analysis Archives: Only 4.7 Percent Of College Juniors Would Consider Teaching At The Current Starting Salary. According to the Education Policy Analysis Archives, only 4.7 percent of college juniors would consider teaching at the current starting salary. Sixty-eight percent of college students said they would consider the teaching profession if it paid 50 percent more than the current occupations they were considering.

According to a new study from the National Education Association, a teachers union, half of new U.S. teachers are likely to quit within the first five years because of poor working conditions and low salaries.
Jentis, now a stay-at-home mother of three, says that she could not make enough money teaching in Manhattan to pay for her student loans and that dealing with the school bureaucracy was too difficult. [Reuters, 5/9/06 [13], via The Washington Post]

August 1, 2012 – TaxTalk Blog
This is the first of a three-part series.
This year the Indiana state legislature passed a few laws that change the way business taxpayers will be required to file and remit sales and withholding taxes. Here are some of the key changes:
How to file electronically…for free. We want you to know that Indiana has a free online tax filing system for sales and withholding tax returns. It is called INtax. We recommend you register with INtax and begin filing electronically as soon as possible in order to avoid the January rush.
Did you know?
Access all this and more by visiting http://www.intax.in.gov/. Also, you may want to view our INtax QuickStart Guide, which offers a brief overview of the registration process.
Please call us at (317) 232-2337 or visit our website at https://www.intax.in.gov/Web/ if you have any questions or concerns on how to register. We look forward to helping you get a jump-start on an electrifying experience!
Come back next week for more information about INtax registration, filing procedures, and possible exceptions to the mandate (there are a few, and most are short-term).

WINTER PARK, Fla. –Coming off a three-game sweep of Florida Southern, the Lions kept their momentum going on Monday, taking home two Sunshine State Conference Player of the Week awards. Senior Michael Revell was named Player of the Week and freshman starting pitcher Michael Dunnigan was named the conference's Pitcher of the Week, it was announced Monday afternoon from the conference office.
PLAYER OF THE WEEK -- Saint Leo senior 1B Michael Revell (Havana, Fla.) led the Lions to four wins, including an SSC series sweep against Florida Southern. Revell batted .667 (10-for-15) with 13 RBI and seven runs. He hit safely in all four contests and tallied multiple hits in three. Revell also blasted six extra-base hits en route to a healthy 1.237 slugging percentage. In a 19-1 win over FSC in the second game of the series, he went 3-for-4 with three doubles and two RBI. Revell struck again in the series finale, going a perfect 4-for-4 with a home run and a triple to drive home five runs. He concluded his week with a .667 on-base percentage and .971 fielding mark.
PITCHER OF THE WEEK -- Saint Leo freshman Michael Dunnigan (Tarpon Springs, Fla.) earned the win in the Lions' 10-1 SSC victory over Florida Southern. Pitching eight innings, Dunnigan allowed one earned run on four hits and three walks. He struck out five. The win gave the freshman a perfect 7-0 record for the season.
With the sweep of Florida Southern over the weekend, the Lions finished the regular season 35-14-1 and 14-9-1 in SSC play. Playing lights out the last few weeks, the Lions have accumulated a record of 12-2-1 over their last 15 games.
The 35-14-1 mark for Saint Leo is their best since 1996—when the team finished 42-15.

WATCH: Subway Skaters Jump the Tracks
Skateboarding is not a crime—though skateboarding on subway platforms is probably frowned upon. Intrepid skaters take over New York City tunnels and tracks, grinding benches and escalators at various subway stops throughout the five boroughs, culminating in a jump across the tracks from one platform at 145th Street to the other.
The clip is from director Colin Read's video Tengu: God of Mischief, which also has scenes shot in San Francisco, Tokyo and Bordeaux. Though it should go without saying, don't try this on your own.

The Siege of Pyke was the final battle of the Greyjoy Rebellion, taking place approximately nine years before the beginning of the Game of Thrones series. The castle of Pyke on the Iron Islands, the stronghold of House Greyjoy, was taken by forces loyal to King Robert Baratheon in an assault after a siege.
The Iron Islands were outnumbered ten to one.[1] During the final assault on Pyke, a battle-crazed warrior priest of the Lord of Light named Thoros of Myr led the way through a breach in the wall with his flaming sword, Jorah Mormont of Bear Island not far behind him. Eddard Stark and Jaime Lannister were also key fighters for the Iron Throne during the battle.[2] Balon's second son and heir after Rodrik Greyjoy's death, Maron Greyjoy, was killed in the fighting at Pyke.[3] Maron's death was due to a collapsing tower during the battle.[3]
The rebellion was crushed and Balon was forced to surrender. He was accepted back into the king's peace, but only on the condition that his last surviving son Theon be made a ward of House Stark as hostage for his good behavior. Theon was just 8 years old at the time. Robert's victory cemented his hold on the throne, after having overthrown the Targaryens a few years before.[3] King Robert knighted Jorah Mormont and Royland Degore for their valor in the battle.[2]
Season 1
Ser Jaime Lannister and Jory Cassel reminisce about the battle, recalling how Thoros led the charge through a breach in the wall, wielding his flaming sword. Jaime recalls it was a hard fight against a skilled enemy.[4]
Season 5
While trying to auction Jorah Mormont to slavers, Malko correctly claims that Jorah took part in the siege, however he misnames Pyke as "Spike" and incorrectly claimed that Jorah was the one who wielded the flaming sword, instead of Thoros.[5]
In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, the Siege of Pyke similarly took place at the end of the Greyjoy Rebellion. Despite early successes - such as burning the Lannister fleet at anchor - the Greyjoys were defeated at sea by Stannis Baratheon's fleet and forced to retire to Pyke. The forces loyal to King Robert Baratheon breached the walls with siege ships and charged through the breach. Once it was clear that the battle was lost, Balon Greyjoy surrendered and bent the knee in fealty to King Robert once more.

Music Students Share Talents
September 24th, 2010 | SMWC
During summer of 2010, music therapy majors from Saint Mary of-the-Woods College (SMWC) students used their time and talents to help others. Students applied their musical talents to serve children with disabilities in schools all around the world.
Seniors Jennifer Pinson and Jena Jones applied their music talents in rural Jamaica for 10 days in May. Pinson and Jones worked with disadvantaged children in schools. These students gave the children something to look forward to every day.
"We really used our musical talent to help energize the kids," said Penson.
Pinson and Jones also worked with children with hearing disorders. By using specific instruments, the children could feel vibrations and hear certain pitches. The two students admit the mission trip was an eye-opening experience and they were honored to have been part of it. Jones comments on the experience, "Incredible isn't even the right word…the whole thing just leaves you speechless."
Sophomore Cathleen Flynn was selected through national auditions to sing with the Minnesota Beethoven Festival Chorus and spent a week at the festival. In its fourth season, the festival is dedicated to showcasing regional talent as well as featuring important international concert artists.
In addition, Flynn spent two weeks in Kosovo experiencing Albanian culture. She and Nora Dalipi, a student native to Kosovo, volunteered at the Play For All Children's Festival in Prestina. They facilitated group games and songs for children ages 6-13.
"I still appreciate the experience," Flynn says. "I loved working with the kids." She admits she does not speak Albanian. However, Dalipi translated for her. Flynn adds. "The experience also provided an opportunity for them to practice their English with me."
Senior, music education major, Jessie Uchytil was selected as a member of the Indiana National Guard 38th Infantry Band of Indianapolis. The band performs several concerts a year in Indiana and occasionally in other states. Uchytil says the experience was amazing, "I felt right at home as soon as I started to do my drill weekends with them." Uchytil explained the band unit is very diverse in age and occupations. "I could not ask for a better unit to serve my military career with," she added.
Nicole Gilberti and Nicole Wieg, juniors, spent the summer working at Camp Lee Mar in Pennsylvania. The camp is specifically designed for children with special needs. Wieg worked as the music and movement coordinator. She taught between three and six music classes per day. She also created lesson plans, took notes on development of the camp participants and assisted other counselors with the children.
"As a Woodsie, I feel like I brought the confidence that is a Woods Woman," Wieg said. "That confidence and talent helped me bring different groups together and gave new voices and means of expression to children who rarely have that experience outside of the camp."
These students, who spent their summer sharing their musical expertise, have played a role in helping other communities. The students provided encouragement to others and received a learning experience in return. Wieg said, "I definitely learned that no challenge is impossible and that I am capable of so much more than I ever thought."

The New School
Flat-Pack and Micro-Manufacturing Exhibition
Parsons' BFA Product Design program presents an exhibition highlighting two key issues within contemporary design.The Flat-Pack Studio addresses the needs of spatial efficiency. Faculty member Mark Bechtel challenged students to design a piece of furniture that can be packed flat in a UPS box or tube. Each project includes the design and construction of a full-scale working furniture prototype, packaging, and an assembly manual. Final projects were shipped to Blu Dot SoHo, where they were assembled and reviewed by a jury of critics.The Micro-Manufacturing Studio focuses on opportunities for the designer-maker. Faculty member Daniel Michalik challenged students to design, model, prototype and test a family of household accessories or furniture designed with smaller-scale, self-sufficient production in mind. Issues of cost and production scale were at the center of design decisions, and the prototyped results were evaluated by respected professionals from the NYC design community. Opening reception: Monday, May 13, 5:00–7:00 p.m.

Feminism | Posted by Angela G on 10/17/2011
FBomb Review: "Girls Like Us"
New book from Rachel Lloyd, "Girls Like Us", is more than a memoir—it's a life-changing experience. Lloyd, Founder/Executive Director of Girls Education and Mentoring Network (GEMS), tells the story of the commercial sexual exploitation of children in the United States. She does this by weaving her story in with the stories of people whose lives she has touched, and the genesis of GEMS itself. But the stories alone are not what made this book the best one I have read in a long while—it's how effortlessly they get to the heart of what choice really means. In short, "Girls Like Us" is where theory and practice, activism and ideology, all sing in perfect harmony.
As a feminist, I feel that the concept of …

- Rustic Windor Chairmaking with Drew Langsner
- When:
- 03/30/09 - 04/03/09
- Where:
- Country Workshops - Marshall
- Category:
- Workshop
Nobody knows when the first Windsor style chairs were made, but it's certain that chairs utilizing legs and spindles for a back-rest fitted to a solid plank seat have been crafted for centuries. In rural Wales, Ireland and the west counties of England, folk art vernacular Windsors were produced throughout the 1800's that often have a sculptural presence and informal visual appeal that is very different from more sophisticated professionally produced Windsors. These "rustic Windsors" -- which our friend John Brown called "stick Windsors" -- were generally made by part-time chairmakers who were also farmers or perhaps boat builders or wagon makers.

Video: Kenwood Excelon DNN990HD Navigation Receiver
Zak Billmeier grew up in southern Vermont and coastal Maine. After graduating from Mary Washington College with a Geography degree he still isn't sure quite what to do with, he eventually settled in the mountains of Central Virginia. He spends his free time chasing his daughter around, taking pictures, gardening and cooking. He joined Crutchfield's car A/V writing team in 2007 and is now a lead producer on our video team.
More from Zak Billmeier
Heads up!Welcome to this article from the Crutchfield archives. Have fun reading it, but be aware that the information may be outdated and links may be broken.
Kenwood's DNN990HD digital media receiver has its head in the Cloud — it works with Wi-Fi hotspots, like ones you can create in your car with your smartphone or a mobile hotspot device (data charges may apply). From there, you can take advantage of access to web-based content, plus your favorite media across several platforms, including your phone's apps, your social media feeds, and music you've stored online. Once you've set up a Wi-Fi hotspot in your car, the receiver connects to the signal; that gets you into the cloud, which is where you can employ connected services for music, video (when parked), social media, navigation extras like traffic and parking help, and more.
Video Transcript
Zak: I'm at CES 2013 at the Kenwood booth and Matt's gonna tell us about this really great new receiver, the DNN990.
Matt: So the DNN990 is actually part of our new connected receiver line which offers in-car Wi-Fi for internet connectivity. It will allow connectivity to such entertainment applications like iHeartRadio, AUPEO!, as well as streaming video. You can also connect to a cloud-based service and access any music you have stored there. It also will keep you connected to your social media world by interfacing your email, your Facebook, as well as Twitter. It can also connect to your calendar as well RSS feeds.
Zak: Great. Thanks Matt. That's the DNN990 from Kenwood.

Are you burning at the slowest possible speed?
Are you using a cdr, as opposed to a cdrw?
Have you tried a different brand of media?
What machine is it? Is it an old machine which perhaps has issues reading or booting from cdr?
i tried to make a live cd i checked the md5 hash from the iso file it matched, then i used nero to burn onto a cd which i burned the iso image yet when i tried to boot it it says image checksume error, from what i gather it's a common problem yet when i have tried multiple times to create a cd it fails. also it might be nothing but it also says before it tries to boot that it has no emulator does this matter? i would please like to know what i can do to solve my problem, thanks
Are you burning at the slowest possible speed?
Are you using a cdr, as opposed to a cdrw?
Have you tried a different brand of media?
What machine is it? Is it an old machine which perhaps has issues reading or booting from cdr?
i'm burning at x4 in nero ( i first tried power Iso but that failed)
i've tried buring both cdr and cdrw then i ran out of cdr so now i'm buring cdrw
and yes i've tried two different types of cd's made by different maufacturers
and lastly ive tried burning it on my aspire 5520 and then my destop both failed
I assume you've also tried booting the CD/USB stick on different machines?
BTW, I would recommend using a cdr rather than a cdrw.
It's starting to sound like an issue with the machine you are attempting to boot on.
Please verify whether you experience the same issue booting on a different machine?
yes, and on the second machine it was the same problem however when i made a boot disk of backtrack three it work untill after the logg in screen were it said it could not find Startx could be a result of a bad download or perhaps a bad burning due to a bad checksome i however had yet to have a chance to try to boot backtrack three on my laptop i will try that when i get home. also is there a specific reason why cd-r is preferred or is it due to it being non rewritable?
1) cheaper than cd-rw
2) holds slightly more data than cd-rw
3) prevents people from accidentally re-mastering the cd if they don't know what they are doing.
They can be burned onto cd-rw but isolinux isn't picky about the media its burned onto. You can't remaster on the fly that easily anyway.
Some older cd drives can be funny about booting from cdrw in my experience.
