Are You Better on Paper Than in Person?
Max Messmer
People are often intimidated by the prospect of summarizing their work experience in resume form but most eventually get past their fears to draft presentable resumes. When error-free and well written, resumes can prompt employers to extend interview invitations to those who appear most qualified on paper. Unfortunately, a recent survey suggests employers often end up being more impressed with job hunters' resumes than the job hunters themselves.
According to global staffing company Robert Half International, which developed the survey, over half the executives surveyed said it's common for job applicants with impressive resumes to fail to meet expectations during interviews.
When those polled were asked, "How common is it for a job applicant who has a promising resume to not live up to your expectations when you interview him or her," 61% responded "somewhat common" and an additional 11% responded "very common." By comparison, only 23% responded "not very common" and just 1% responded "not at all common."
"A resume tells a hiring manager only a limited story about a job applicant," said Max Messmer, chairman and CEO of Robert Half International. "In making crucial hiring decisions, nothing replaces in-person interaction to ensure the candidate has the requisite technical qualifications and soft skills that will likely make him or her a good fit with the organization."
To decrease the likelihood that you'll disappoint recruiters and hiring managers during interviews, consider the following interview preparation tips.
If rehearsing responses in advance of interviews seems odd, think of people you've seen deliver keynote speeches at conferences or actors you've enjoyed in films or on stage. None of them would likely perform at their best without extensive rehearsal beforehand.
Fortunately, when preparing for interviews, you don't have to memorize scripted responses to likely questions. In fact, if you did that, your responses would probably sound memorized and stilted to the interviewer. The goal of your rehearsal should be to think through --- and speak aloud --- responses to likely questions so you can highlight key ideas and elements of your experience without hesitation even if you're nervous during the interview.
If you're not sure what questions to prepare for, think back to what you were asked at your last interview. Alternately, review one of the many books on interviewing available at public libraries and bookstores. Such books tend to include both lists of common questions and guidance on how to answer them effectively.
Consider someone applying for a sales role in a software company. The interviewer will typically be interested in both the applicant's previous record of sales success as well as the applicant's interest in working for that software company. The interviewer may even pose the question: "Why do you want to work for us?"
Rather than simply responding, "I believe my sales experience is a strong fit," an applicant who's learned about the company he or she is interviewing with can answer with more specifics: "Not only do I believe my sales experience is a strong match for your organization. I'm also attracted to your company's reputation for outstanding customer service and offering customers the lowest cost in this product niche."
Tailoring a response to reflect the company's strengths and unique status in its industry can enhance the interviewer's perception of the applicant's knowledge and readiness to represent the company's products. |

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) - Hostess has been in business for more than 80 years, but the iconic baked goods company will close its doors , shutting down plants in Indianapolis and Columbus, leaving more than 800 Hoosiers out of work.
Hostess outlet stores are a place many people come to get their favorite baked goods. Now that the company is closing up shop not only will the stores close, but favorites like Twinkies will be yanked from the shelves.
"I grew up with cupcakes and Twinkies, but now I'm eating Donettes and I can't believe they're going off the shelf," says a Hostess fan Chuck Wallis.
PHOTOS | Hostess strike, products across Indiana
Grocery chains like Kroger are planning ahead for when their shelves are empty. Some stores put out their entire Hostess stock the day the closing was announced and already there are empty spaces from shoppers rushing to get their beloved treats.
"I think we all have stories, you know we were talking about peanut butter sandwiches on Wonder Bread as kids and I have that same memory," explains John Elliott the Public Relations Manager for Kroger.
John Elliott says, the company will fill the shelves once Hostess is gone, with its own brand of similar baked goods.
"They won't miss out, it tastes just as good, they might miss the particular brand identity," says Elliott.
That holds true for many Hostess fans, nothing will take its place.
"Well I'm 66 years old they've been around as far as long as I can remember, so I'm really disturbed they're closing down," says Wallis. "I thought I would come over and buy a couple of Donettes before they go off the shelf,"
John Elliott says, the Hostess brand is on the high end of baked goods, but Kroger's brand is set up on a three tier quality level, that way they're able to make a close substitute for shoppers. Right now Kroger does not make a Twinkie substitute, but Elliott says the company is already looking into making a duplicate.

Closure of school was a business decision by GEMS
Should schools be allowed higher fee increases in order to survive or are parents struggling too much already?
December 17, 2012 2:08 by M. Aldalou
In a recently revealed 'letter to the parents', GEMS Education expressed their regret about being forced to shut down The Westminster School in Dubai. Due to their inability to operate profitably, the 2014/15 academic year will be the last for them.
TWS is one of the education provider's biggest institutes in the emirate but they've said that they can no longer operate with the fee cap placed by the Knowledge and Human Development Authority. If they want to survive, they need to be able to charge parents more.
'At The Westminster School, over the past five years the average fee increase, per annum, has been just 167 dirhams,' reads the letter. "That equates to around 13 dirhams a month. For two of the past five years there has been no fee increase at all. We simply cannot offer a high quality education at this level that we see as our duty to provide. Indeed, salary increases during the same period have been at a level higher than any fee awards.'
The KHDA governs and rates all schools in the emirate, deciding the ones that deserve the most substantial annual fee hike based on their overall performance. The fee hike restrictions were put in place to control the soaring prices of private education in Dubai – as parents were and still are trying to keep up with them. In fact, Many have argued that schools – particularly those rated 'acceptable' – shouldn't be allowed to hike their fees at all. And it's worth noting that this school falls under that rating.
Quoted by Arabian Business, an anonymous parent says that GEMS has put money ahead of student welfare. "Why close a school rated as acceptable?," said one parent. "The reasons given for the closure simply do not add up. GEMS has put profit margins ahead of the welfare of the children at Westminster School. Thanks for the pre-Christmas slap in the face GEMS!"
There are approximately 5,000 students attending the Dubai-based school and naturally, all will need to find replacement institutes before the end of 2014. The parents have been informed in the letter that their children would be able to transfer to various other GEMS-owned schools.
'Students from TWS, Dubai will be given priority placement in the following GEMS schools from 2013 onwards. This is subject to meeting normal admissions procedures.'
When Kipp questioned the KHDA about the closure, and whether they schools ought to be allowed higher increases, they told us that as with all other schools, TWS was governed by the same regulations and that it was a business decision taken purely by GEMS.
"GEMS submitted an application to close The Westminster School at the end of the academic year 2014-15. It was business decision taking by GEMS. The School Fees Framework governs all fee increases at Dubai's private schools. The fee increases at The Westminster School were also governed similarly," says Mohammed Darwish, Chief of Regulations and Compliance Commission, KHDA.
Should schools in the emirate be allowed to hike their fees in order to survive or do you think the closure of this school is better in the long run?

Cell phones and pagers are permitted in the library. It is expected, however, that people using cell phones will be respectful of others. To provide an optimal environment for research and study and for library staff to do their work, people are asked that cell phones be turned to low, that ringers be silenced (set to vibrate) and that calls be short. Lengthy calls should be made in areas where the conversation does not disturb others. These appropriate areas differ by library because of varying architecture, locations of study spaces, service desks, and staff offices. Please honor requests for quiet and move to another location if an unintended distraction occurs. Thank you for your cooperation.

The Joseon ceramic ware that gained widespread favor in Japan beginning in the late fifteenth century was not fine white porcelain, the main product of Korean kilnsparticularly the official court kilnsat the time, but buncheong (powder green) stoneware, so-called because of its bluish green transparent glaze. This bowl, which was dipped partially in white slip and then covered with a glaze before firing, is typical of the type of buncheong ware that was especially prized by practitioners of the tea ceremony in Japan as the embodiment of the aesthetics of rusticity and naturalness.

Whooping cranes fly south, following an ultra-light aircraft. To rebuild the crane population, rescued eggs hatched in captivity see crane-costumed people and equipment and imprint on them as parents. The birds learn their migratory route from these stand-in parents. To ensure the survival of the cranes, Southern Company supports Operation Migration USA through its Power of Flight program in partnership with NFWF.
Many businesses are larger, some have more customers, but few touch as many lives as we do. We are fortunate for the opportunities this affords us for citizenship in the communities we serve, whether that community is an ecosystem or economy, a workplace or a hometown.
Southern Company fosters collaborative partnerships to conserve habitat, protect wildlife, educate children, provide recreation, remove trash, develop communities, and accomplish other services. We also provide leadership and expertise at local meetings, speaking engagements, research support, safety education, and board service, and provide a helping hand for other volunteer activities. We work at all levels from the grass roots in field offices and power plants up through corporate channels at each of our subsidiaries and headquarters to support communities and ecologies within our service territory.
Southern Company system facilities and property are located within known ranges of a number of U.S. federally threatened or endangered species. Species occurrence or presence of critical habitat is evaluated and proper consultation is completed prior to initiating activities that occur in the proximity of identified species or their critical habitat.
For more on our conservation efforts, visit: Wildlife | Ecosystems | Restoration | Land Management
"Many native species, and the habitats on which they depend in the southeastern United States, require conservation to survive. Strong programmatic, philosophical, and financial support can achieve meaningful and significant benefits.
"We are seeing results through focused conservation investments we've made with Southern Company through programs like Power of Flight and Longleaf Legacy."

UN chief urges lifting of Burma sanctions
30/04/2012 - 13:33:03UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has urged the international community to lift more sanctions on Burma and increase development assistance.
He said in a speech to Burma's parliament that the world should match the ambitions of the country's people for democracy and change.
Western nations have said they will ease their sanctions if President Thein Sein, a former general who retains close ties to the military, continues political reforms he began after taking office a year ago.
The European Union and several Western nations have already dropped or suspended sanctions that were imposed in response to repression by the country's former military junta.

J. PALZER (Arizona) on March 30, 2012
The girls on the Sheely Farms Middle School fast pitch softball team were thrilled to receive and wear their new jerseys. They didn't win their first game but they looked great wearing their new jerseys.
T. PUBLIC SCHOOLS (Oklahoma) on March 20, 2012
great product
C. SHARP (Utah) on December 11, 2012
These are pretty nice jerseys, and definately for the price! The fabric does not stretch, but they are roomy and the arm holes are not tight. Kind of like a cap sleeve I think. I would size up for softball, you have to tuck them in anyway.

Rounding out its Cannes slate, the Exchange has acquired international sales rights to Deon Taylor's drama "Supremacy."
Danny Glover, Julie Benz, Joe Anderson, Derek Luke, Anson Mount, Dawn Olivieri and Mahershala Ali star. Producers are Roxanne Avent and Vince Cirrincione with Aaron L. Gilbert and Robert Smith exec producing.
Story, penned by Eric J. Adams, recounts one night for a black family held captive by a leader in the Aryan Brotherhood (portrayed by Anderson) on the run from the law.
The Exchange's slate at Cannes will also include Randall Miller's "CBGB," Richard LaGravanese's "The Last 5 Years," Jean-Claude Van Damme's "Swelter" and Sebastian Silva's thriller "Magic Magic," which will have its international premiere in the Directors' Fortnight.
Thanks to the amazing Nicole of NowhereLand9 Designs, we have a gorgeous new layout here at Joe Anderson Network – what do you guys think? Also, as news is fairly quiet at the moment, I have just replaced the previous DVD-quality screen captures of Joe from The Ruins with over 300 Blu-Ray quality captures – enjoy!
Gallery Links
Film Productions > The Ruins (2008) > Screen Captures (Blu-Ray)
A new trailer for Joe's upcoming film A Single Shot has recently appeared online, and he appears briefly about 1/2 way through. Watch it in full below – the film is set to show at the Tribeca Film Festival later this month, but is currently still looking for a distributor.
Yes, this post is titled You Must Know, but in truth, you probably already Do Know Joe Anderson. However, the actor is such a cinematic chameleon, it's totally understandable why his name doesn't immediately conjure up memories of his amazing work in Across The Universe, The Ruins, The Crazies, The Grey or, even, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2.
Thanks to countless wigs, varying degrees of facial hair, an impressive mastery of accents and the ability to transform his physicality, Anderson tends to be nearly unrecognizable from one project to the next. A true skillset, but as he tells me, it can also be a detriment to an actor trying to gain a foothold in Hollywood.
Given your propensity for smaller budget films, I was kind of surprised to see you in the final Twilight film.
It wasn't something I would expect myself to go after either. Especially knowing how secretive they can be with these massive franchises in terms of plot, character and how faithful they're going to be to the books. To be quite frank, artistically, my taste is at the other end of the spectrum. My moviemaking isn't necessarily that of this kind of franchise, but you just commit to the madness of the moment, and that's what makes these kind of wacko experiences fun.
After waiting for what feels like an eternity, I have finally managed to get hold of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part II, and have just added Blu-Ray quality screen captures of Joe as Alistair to the gallery. What did you guys think of Joe in the film?
Gallery Links
Film Productions > The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part II (2012) > Screen Captures (Blu-Ray)
After very limited news and footage regarding this project, Joe's 2010 film Flutter has been appearing at several film festivals, most recently at the British Independent Film Festival in May, 2012. The official site has a brand new trailer up on its website – it is similar to the original trailer we posted back in August 2011 – and you can watch it in full below.
The film still doesn't have a release date in the UK or North America, but hopefully something will surface soon.
Last night was the hotly-anticipated LA premiere of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part II, and Joe was on the red carpet! I've found a few pictures of him at the event, hopefully more will pop up soon.
A few rather moody stills and on-set shots of Joe from his upcoming film Supremacy have just been added to the gallery. Enjoy!

The Office of School Health (OSH) is a joint program of the New York City Department of Education and the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH). OSH provides health services and preventive services to DOE students. Resources for Families in the Aftermath of Sandy HookTo address the emotional needs for both students and their families dealing with the tragic shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, we recommend an excellent resource list from the Center for School Mental Health that contains a compilation of practical resources related to school crisis response that are free and readily available communities. This includes handouts and downloads. We also recommend: How to Talk to Children About Violence. Feel free to distribute as needed. Should you need additional resources, contact Scott Bloom, Director of School Mental Health Services at 212-374-6846. In addition, resources for DOE staff are posted on the Principals' Portal as well as on the Guidance and Teacher pages on the DOE web site.Please see the categories below for information about services provided by the Office of School Health:
Mandatory for Entry into the NYC School School System
New Admission Exam: First notice requesting CH-205. This letter is also available in Arabic | Bengali | Chinese | French | Haitian-Creole | Korean | Russian | Spanish | Urdu.
Effective Monday, June 10th, Department of Health (DOH) will no longer be issuing yellow vaccination cards to patients. Instead patients will be given a print out of the vaccination history, vaccines administered at the visit, lot numbers etc. and date of next appointment. This is to comply with CDC regulations requiring a lot more information than can fit on the current cards.
School or Student Specific Services
General Programs/Services and Other Information
Wellness Policies: DOE adopted Wellness Policies on Physical Activity and Nutrition in 2006, and revised them in 2010 to align with emerging knowledge and priorities in public health, particularly in the face of a national childhood obesity epidemic. To promote the health and well-being of our students through Wellness Policy-supported initiatives, check out the annual School Wellness poster contest, as well as the School Wellness Council grant opportunity for schools interested in forming or strengthening a School Wellness Council.

Health Related TopicsBed bugs are small insects that feed on human blood. They are usually active at night when people are sleeping. Their bites are initially painless, but for some people can later turn into itchy skin welts. While bed bugs are a nuisance and can be worrisome, they are not known to cause or spread disease. For additional information regarding bed bugs, view the Bed Bug Fact Sheet (available in Arabic | Bengali | Chinese | Haitian-Creole | Korean | Russian | Spanish | Urdu), visit the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene's website, or call 311. If a suspected bed bug is found in a school, principals will submit a specimen following the protocol described in the Bed Bug Information Kit . If the specimen is confirmed to be a bed bug, principals may notify parents using the letter in the kit, which is also available in Arabic | Bengali | Chinese | French | Haitian-Creole | Korean | Russian | Spanish | Urdu. If the DOE Pest Management Unit finds that a school is infested (bed bugs living and reproducing in the area), parents of all the students in the building will be notified and DOE will provide the appropriate treatment in affected school areas. InfluenzaThe state health department has declared a public health emergency because of the severity of this year's flu season. Schools and child-care facilities must post influenza educational material within their facilities, according to state law. A guide for parents is available here, and should be posted in the main office or other areas with high visibility to parents and families. Additional information is available from the Centers for Disease Control here.
Guidelines for Outdoor Play in Cold WeatherChildren benefit from vigorous exercise and should be given the opportunity to play outside whenever possible. Unless it is snowing or there is ice on the playground, low temperatures should not be a barrier to outside play, as long as children are appropriately dressed. The Health Department strongly encourages principals to maintain outdoor play periods on the vast majority of winter days. Communicable Disease/ Environmental & Food-Borne Illnesses: In suspected cases of communicable disease, environmental illness, or food-borne illness, schools will immediately notify OSH, which will conduct an investigation. If the investigation results indicate that notification of the school community is warranted, OSH will provide principals with letters to be distributed in classrooms and through the regular mail.
Obesity: Almost half of New York City children are not living with a healthy weight. Many are not physically fit. In addition to the fitness initiatives supported by the Office of School Wellness Programs, OSH works with the School Food program to improve the quality of student meals and encourage participation in the universal free breakfast program. The Department of Health has a helpful publication for parents titled Helping Children Reach a Healthy Weight. This publication is also available in Chinese and Spanish. Drink Low-Fat Milk: In an effort to help reduce childhood obesity, the Health Department and the Department of Education strongly encourage everyone ages 2 and older to drink 1% or fat-free milk rather than whole milk. Please distribute a letter from Chancellor Klein and Mental Hygiene Commisioner Frieden to families at your school. This letter is also available in Arabic | Bengali | Chinese | Haitian-Creole | Korean | Russian | Spanish | Urdu Pediculosis (Head Lice): For more information, please click here . Intimate Partner Violence affects tens of thousands of NYC teens and adults every year. Family members and friends are also impacted. To learn more about intimate partner violence and teen dating violence, and access available resources, please visit: this site.Prevent Window Falls: Open windows offer relief from the summer heat, but they can pose hazards for small children. To protect children from falls, the Health Department urges New Yorkers to make sure window guards are in place. The Nurse-Family Partnership (NFP) is a nationally replicated, evidence-based, nurse home-visiting program for vulnerable first-time mothers. The Health Department oversees nine NFP sites throughout all five boroughs. NFP helps families improve maternal and child health, build a secure and nurturing relationship between parent and child, and reach education and employment goals. First-time mothers must enroll in NFP by their 28th week of pregnancy. Registered nurses, who follow a structured curriculum, make an average of two home visits per month during pregnancy and until the infant's second birthday. Eligible students can be referred by completing a simple form.Sleep is very important to the development and growth of the body and brain. The amount of sleep needed varies with age. The National Sleep Foundation (NSF) suggests that school-age children (5-10 years) need 10-11 hours of sleep daily, teens (10-17 years) need 8.5-9.5 hours, and adults need 7-9 hours. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention endorses the NSF's recommendations. Review the CDC Sleep Guidelines, NSF Teen Sleep Facts, and visit Sleep for Kids for more information.

MCB Nutcracker, 12/19/08...with a few nice surprises!
Posted 19 December 2008 - 07:54 PM
1-On top of all-(and this is straight directed to Jack Reed)-a marvelous Mary Carmen Catoya's Dewdrop. Jack, you would have been so proud of her...She showed such command of technique that she just totally got me. Her legs were like steel, her pirouettes, perfect, her epaulement beautiful, her balances to die for..her face, RADIANT. She was ABSOLUTELY ASTONISHING.
2-Jennifer Kronemberg and Carlos Guerra as SPF/Cavalier. This was a big display of sweetness and joy. Their adagio had the quality of showing a real empathy, in which they were not only dancing for the audience, but more than that, for each other. Jennifer's beauty took over, and Guerra's partnering was as detailed as we could ask for. Guerra's pirouettes a la second at the Coda were impressive, as well as his shoulder lifts with one hand.
3-Daniel Baker's Candy Cane. This athletic guy is so darn good at all kinds of jumps and tricks...AND HE KNOWS IT! His multiple jumps thru the hoop were out this world. Bravo, Baker!
4-Alex Wong's Chinese dancer. Wow, if there's somebody who knows how to do a grand écart, this is Wong. He brought the house down.
5-The Waltz of the Flowers. So beautiful, so sincronized...(and with Catoya around even better)
Tomorrow I'll go see the Cubans at CCBM. This will be my 3 th production this season.
Posted 20 December 2008 - 07:31 AM
Kronenberg is one of my all-time favorite Sugar Plums. Real movie-star glamour, allure, and mystery. Do you share my impression that there's been a marked improvement in the ease and comfort level of Guerra's partnering this season?
Re: Baker. He was a standout from day one and I often put him on my casting wish list. I agree with you about how good he is at jumping, turning -- there's also the sheer energy and obvious love of performing. I'm a little concerned about your comment: "AND HE KNOWS IT!" I'd hate to see him become a self-conscious pitchman for his own talent. There was a "gee whiz, look at me" element in Mercuric Tidings -- which he danced thrillingly -- that didn't belong there (I think) and that was a little troubling. Especially when compared with the subtler, more artistic approach (and respect for ensemble and nuance) shown by Jeremy Cox, a dancer who's just as technically strong and astonishing.
But Baker's very young ... and MCB seems to be rather good at taking its most talented young people and forming them into artists as well as virtuosos.
Who were the Hot Chocolate couple? And Coffee? And Tea?
We just got news that MCB will be dropping its live orchestra for Programs III and IV in West Palm. (Another side-effect of the terrible economy and the devastating effect of the Harry Madoff debacle on philanthropy down here.)
I believe the orchestra is funded for several more years in Miami, assuming the committed money still exists. I don't know about Fort Lauderdale. Live musicians are one of the few things that makes an evening of Minkus (Program III: Don Quixote) tolerable, in my opinion. On program IV, the Bach (Concerto Barocco) and Bizet (Symphony in C) are the kind of thing the Opus One orchestra can do very well. They'll be missed. I hope, at least, that they bring Francissco Renno, their pianist , along to play the Chopin Nocturnes in In the Night.

bart, on Dec 20 2008, 07:31 AM, said:
I'm sorry, but at first glance i had to think carefully about this. My mind still goes by Spanish Dance, Arabian Dance, Chinese Dance and Trepak. The Odalisque was Jeannette Delgado. This is one of the dances that i really don't care too much about, but she did the job the way it was supposed to. (Can't praise her more, which is a shame, due to the limitations of the choreography). The Chinese Dance-(tea?) was Wong, which i mentioned already-(can't remember the two girls, and ditto with the Spanish Dance leading couple, which didn't do that much for me either. I'm doing this by memory, cause i lost the program, as usual) . The Marzipan Mirlitons were lead by Tricia Albertson, which is looking too cold lately
Posted 03 January 2009 - 04:20 PM
But it's interesting that you dislike the choreography but greatly enjoy these performances of it. Can you say something about how the choreography bothers you?

1-The Kinder feeling and
2-The SPF PDD-(reworking/ variations omissions)
among other things...
Posted 04 January 2009 - 11:46 AM
How can you not like GB's choreography cubanmiamiboy!? The classical garb is so dated! I think the production is fabulous, and the story, unlike many other Nutcrackers, actually makes sense, and is almost foolproof even for a lay-person. Maybe it's different from a dancer's perspective, but it is also more challenging than some of the other versions I have danced.
Posted 04 January 2009 - 11:54 AM
Balanchine always said that ballet is about the woman. In most of his ballets, the men are less featured than the women. The same is true in Nutcracker, in respects to the lack of a variation for the cavalier.
How would you 'rework' the pas de deux?
The pas de deux is so simple in regards to choreography and musicality. You can see a mistake instantly, which is why I feel it is so difficult. Sometimes it is nice to see a simple pas de deux, executed well, both technically, and musically. I think GB saved much more intricate choreography for his other ballets, which in my opinion, is great. After 40-something shows of The Nutcracker, you would want to keep it simple, and clean. But again, that's just a dancer's perspective.

January 2013- Chapter President Remembered
Daniel J. Curtis, president of the Dayton-Wright Chapter, passed away on Wednesday, January 16, at the age of 55. As president of Curtis Consulting and before that at BearingPoint (now Deloitte), he was a tireless advocate for Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Curtis was a dedicated volunteer and philanthropist, giving generously of his time, expertise and financial resources to make a difference in the lives of individuals in the Dayton community. One of the original employees of the Dayton Development Coalition, where he was on staff from 1995 to 2002, Curtis played an especially vital role in protecting Wright-Patterson during the 1995 Base Realignment and Closure process.
Curtis had a long passion for politics and public policy that began when he was a page and then a legislative aide in the Ohio House of Representatives in the 1970s. Ultimately, he rose to become the executive assistant to the legendary Vern Riffe, former speaker of the Ohio House.
Curtis was about to embark on a second year as president of the Dayton Wright Chapter when he was so quickly taken from us. He held numerous positions throughout his years of involvement in the chapter and was known for his insistence on accountability and responsibility for the chapter's financial funds. He worked closely with others to create an infrastructure that would ensure future growth. Under Curtis' leadership, the chapter launched a new internship program in March 2012 aligned with the region's defense and aerospace sectors to support work force development. Partnered with the Southwestern Ohio Council for Higher Education (SOCHE), the program aims to fulfill defense and aerospace work force development capabilities and reduce university and college recruiting costs for participating corporate partners, while at the same time benefiting the AFCEA chapter scholarship fund. Curtis is survived by his wife Amy (Snyder); his children Kevin, Chelsea and Matthew; and a nephew, Michael. Contributions in memory of Dan Curtis can be made to the AFCEA Educational Fund at the Dayton Foundation, 500 Kettering Tower, Dayton, Ohio 45423
December 2012-Enterprise IT Discussions
The chapter welcomed David Garofoli, system program manager, Defense Enterprise Accounting Management Systems, in December. Garofoli discussed the challenges of providing system integration for the program and the challenges of its four contracts. DEAMS is a $1.5 billion ACAT1AM ERP system. More than 250 people were in attendance at the meeting. Luncheon sponsors were AT&T, Booz Allen Hamilton, Computer Sciences Corporation, Deloitte, Flairsoft Ltd., Illumination Works, JJR Solutions, Kratos Defense, LDSS Corp., Northrup Grumman, Peerless Technologies, Quantrum, Segue Technologies, STG, Sumaria Systems, TACG and The Greentree Group. Aaron Miller, chapter vice president for scholarships, announced that the AFCEA scholarship and SOCHE Internship Program have received $3.5 million in funding to support internships.
November 2012-Young AFCEAN Honored
Dan Curtis, chapter president, announced another proud chapter achievement in November. Aaron Miller has been selected as Regional Young AFCEAN of the Year. This is an award very much deserved. Miller has performed exceedingly well in his position as chapter vice president for operations, reorganizing the chapter's approach to scholarship assistance from top to bottom and completely modernizing its approach. He has also contributed greatly to the rising success of each and every Young AFCEAN (YAC) event this year and already has garnered extensive underwriting for literally all YAC events in 2013. There are only a dozen or so of these awards given around the AFCEA globe, and Miller is the region's Young AFCEAN of the Year. He'll be honored at the December chapter luncheon.
The AFCEA Dayton-Wright Chapter is proud to support scholarships to deserving, local students

Eisenhower was reflecting painfully on the disruption to peace that followed the end of World War II: the formation of opposing power blocs each armed with nuclear weapons...

Well, my name is Nicole. I am currently 15; and a sophomore in high school.I am biracial, as my mom is...well...white, and my dad is Indian. However, I am a completely Americanized child as I have been to Indian only twice. ;]
I absolutely love, and will play to the day I die, the following games: Soul Caliber 4, Dragon Age Origins, Jade Empire, and Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 2. Besides Gaia, my hobbies are tennis, saxophone (band geek!), reading, and singing.
I'm not super athletic, meaning I can't throw a ball two inches from my face, and I'm mentally challenged when it comes to grammar or spelling...and math. Math corrupts you~
As for my taste in music, I vary quite a bit from listening to Queen, to Hush Sound, to Takénobu.
My BFF is the amazing terrorist and super smexii YokoYua.
I love almost all movies, but my favorite would be the Shawshank Redemption, or Lord of the Rings.
And sadly, although I read a lot, I do not have a favorite book. And of course, as you have already guessed by now, I would classify myself as a nerd.
Feel free to pm me. I don't bite, most of the time...Oh, and did I mention I'm kinda awkward too. And because I don't know how to end this, I'll leave it at that. XD

Best Step Forward
creating projects for my sweet South African pal, Sophia, over at Le Shabby Cafe
and these projects for the super talented Amanda over at Scrap Rat Kits
and this for SCRAPBOOK ADHESIVES by 3L - check out their blog here for details of how I put the page together.
As well as scrapping LOTS - Ive spent time with the family - my Sis and lil Nephew came to stay over the Easter break - which was wonderful - and I completely over indulged in Auntie cuddles : )
We had plenty of this
and this
and this
and this
and had a thoroughly good time - until a run of bad luck hit us this week : (
My youngest Sis got sick - really sick - and needed emergency surgery : ( She had further surgery last night and is now on the road to recovery : )
Unfortunatly I had to endure two trips to this place -
My oldest boy - Bobs - he got in a fight with a 2 inch piece of tempered steel whilst doing one of his super dooper micro scooter tricks - only he lost and the steel embedded itself in to his head - OUCH! - so he spent the night at the local hossie having micro surgery to "fix the 'ole in 'is 'ed"
My hard drive died this morning - thank goodness I backed up a my photos and am only missing a few : ) - we dashed to PC World to buy a new 'puta and on the way home - a silly tractor driver decided to reverse out of the field -
just as we were passing by : (
But hey! We are all fine and the sun is shining : )
These things are sent to try us - but in good ol British fashion, we roll up our sleeves and with our best step forward - we carry on : )
Thanks for dropping by - call by tomorrow if you can because I have an amazingly sticky offering to share : )

"I bought this car in October, 2012, for $4000. It had 110000 miles on it. Since I got it, I changed the motor oil(7 quarts of Mobil 1), oil filter($10), air filter($15), cabin air filter(comes in a set of two @ $15), spark plugs(Champion Platinum $30 for 8 of them.), replaced the leaking clutch slave cylinder($50), a bottle of DOT-4 brake fluid($6), and I installed a short-throw shifter($30 from "xBay".) Lately, the warning lights for traction control and ABS comes on while driving. So, I would take out all 4 wheels to check if it's the ABS sensor(s) broken or something else. Also, When I brake hard during high speed, the front of the car shakes. So, I am going to change the front brake rotors($100 each) along with new front brake pads($50)Lately, the driver's side headlight keeps fogging up, don't know what's wrong with it, but that can wait. So far, the car drives very good, the ride is comfortable and fast. Fuel economy is about $65 for 300 miles(92 octane gasoline at $4.30 per gallon.)"

"IMHO, the best looking 5 series ever. Awesome to drive, handles like a dream. At this point be ready to replace the coolant system (hoses, pump, thermostat, expansion tank), oil supply and return lines, trans supply and return lines, power steering lines, tie rods, and struts. It sounds like a lot. But you should be able to do most, if not all, of this yourself. This a sports sedan with performance parts which wear out. My E39 is a 1999 build; currently 14 years old. Things wear out. There will be small stuff in the interior also. I think these cars are at the low point for prices. They was too much mass production for them to be a valuable classic, unless you have a real M5. But there should be a ready supply of parts."

"Just put on a new bumper ($1200.00), added new Continental tires (exactly like originals) ($980.00 total), just put in a new battery, and finally it was completely detailed to look, in and out, like new. Something hit the hood and windshield on the freeway so the insurance company replaced both with new ones which helps with outside new appearance. It also has a couple hardly noticable dings which have been touched."

"I buy only used cars and only pay cash. So I typically look for good deals on nice cars with moderate mileage. I wanted a wagon (already own an SUV - bad mileage). I have owned two other BMWs back when I used to buy brand new cars (a 328 and a 540). Both were owned for 3-5 years in duration. I bought this car in 2009 at 6 years old. I got a pretty good deal, knowing it needed brakes and tires, which were immediately replaced and the performance/ride improved instantly to where it should be. The driving of the car is nice, responsive, quick enough for my needs, but what I like most is the wagon aspect (2 kids, 2 dogs, several family trips). What I don't like? Computers and electrical items go on moderate aged BMWs. My check engine light is permanently on - 02 sensor supposedly but they all (4) test good. Cat tests good. I lost a computer chip that put me in fail safe mode. The rear tailgate window stopped opening/closing. Go through light bulbs like crazy. The print-outs on the dash/radio are a joke - some days read okay, others just a bunch of random dots. Temperature outside ranges from -40 to 110 degrees during the summer and -40 degrees and 80 degrees the rest of the year. All those annoying tones that warn me when I am near freezing conditions - during the summer when it is 80 degrees outside. Cup holders - don't even get me started here. They provide just enough support that you almost feel comfortable accelorating without supporting the cup with a hand. My key fob goes for months without working, then starts working just like that. The cheap plastic tubing for the window washer is designed to run right past the hottest parts of the engine and develops small holes from the heat. Plan to dump a few gallons of washer fluid in every month - even if you never once use it. Of course, whenever you really want to or need to have washer fluid, it will be bone dry. I knew when I bought the car I'd have some costs into it that would be much higher than when I bought them new in the past. But I also bought a used Dodge Durango (for boat towing) at the same time. I can tell you without a doubt that the Dodge Durango is a 100 times more reliable in terms of everything, have spent a fraction on maintenance (though more on gas). The truth is that it's nice to drive - all my problems have really been nuisance problems. But as a boat owner, I can tell you that the nuissance problems are the difference between happiness and confidence and disappointment and fear of what will happen next. I'll drive the car into the ground (it's not really worth anything), actually pass it on to my teenager and let him do it. Have put about 66K on it in 3 years and truth be told, it has never stranded me and I have always been comfortable pulling out of the driveway for an 8 hour+ drive. Seats aren't all the comfy - try the new Honda Accord's seats, now that's comfortable. PS. I almost never put premium gas in it, and when I do, don't see much if any difference (at least for my driving habits)."

A new report, Higher Education Reform in the Arab World, underscores the critical role of higher education in the restructuring of Arab economic and political institutions that is currently underway. Authored by AMIDEAST Vice President Katherine Wilkens, the 11-page monograph links "the long term success or failure of today's reform initiatives" to the ability of countries in the region "to place higher education where it belongs—as the engine of social and economic progress."
The report summarizes the findings of a working group on Higher Education Reform in the Arab World, convened last April at Brookings' 2011 U.S.-Islamic World Forum in Washington, DC, under the direction of Ms. Wilkens and Dr. Safwan Masri, director of Columbia University's Middle East Research Center and a professor at Columbia's Graduate School of Business. During the two-day forum, the 20-member working group of educators, specialists, and public sector officials from the United States and the Middle East reviewed the current state of higher education in the Arab world and considered the key challenges facing this critical sector of society. Their discussions addressed the need for improvements in the quality, delivery, and management of higher education, with emphasis on the linkages between higher education and job creation.
The report makes 10 recommendations for action by educational institutions, governments, and the private sector to advance reform in higher education the Arab world. A follow-up meeting is planned in the region, where further steps for action and engagement will be considered.

PARK TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) — A western Michigan man has been charged in the fatal shooting of an Ottawa County couple more than 25 years ago.
Authorities say Ryan Wyngarden is the brother of one of the victims, Gail Brink. She and husband Rick Brink were killed at their Park Township home in November 1987.
The 50-year-old Wyngarden was denied bail Monday and sent back to the Ottawa County jail. He told the judge he'd accept a court-appointed lawyer.
Sheriff's Lt. Mark Bennett says information about Wyngarden "came to the forefront" in the last few months. Investigators won't say why they finally settled on the Zeeland resident, but two detectives conducted approximately 200 interviews.
Park Township is near Lake Michigan, 35 miles southwest of Grand Rapids.
