Trois-Rivieres, QC - Unbeaten two-year-old harness racing colt, Whitecookie, posted his fifth straight win with another impressive victory in a second-round division of the Future Stars Series at the Hippodrome 3R Thursday evening.
Owned, trained and driven to victory by Marie Claude Auger of Trois-Rivieres, the son of stallion Windfall Blue Chip never had an anxious moment in the one-mile pacing race.
Leaving from post one in the fourth race, Auger sent Whitecookie right to the front with HP Beach Dragon (Stephane Brosseau) leaving sharply from post eight and grabbing the two-hole spot behind Whitecookie.
They raced that way the rest of the mile with HP Beach Dragon looking to mount a challenge on the final turn. That only urged Whitecookie on, who won with ease by two and three-quarter lengths in 1:58.2, the last quarter mile on the half mile track in :28.4. HP Beach Dragon was second with Eclat De Rire (Stephane Gendron) third.
The time of the race tied the lifetime mark for Whitecookie, who paid $3.00 to win.
There are three preliminary rounds for the Future Stars Series with the finals for their respective divisions on Sunday, September 8 at H3R with a purse of $55,000C in each final for the two-year-olds.
In the ninth race second colt division, the 1/9 favorite, My Bettors Dell, made it two straight wins in the series, wiring the field for driver Stephane Brosseau by two lengths in 1:59.4.
Retour Au Jeu and driver Stephane Gendron was second with Jeu De Puissance (Simon Delisle) third.
The son of Bettor's Delight is trained by Jacques Dupont for owners Yves Sarrazin of La Presentation and Jam Audet, Inc. of Portneauf. He paid just $2.10 to win.
The sixth race was the lone filly division in the Future Stars and as expected by the tote board, Lotus Sena was the race favorite and she raced like one.
Driven by H3R's leading driver, Stephane Gendron, Lotus Sena led every step of the way out of the starting gate. She went on to pull away from the field after the three-quarters and winning in a romp by six and one-half open lengths in 2:02.1. SOS Cupcake (Daniel Laflamme) was second with Acaena De Chakbika (Stephane Brosseau) third.
It was a lifetime mark for the daughter of Windfall Blue Chip and her third straight win in just four lifetime starts. She is trained, owned and was bred by Serge Nadeau of Scott and paid $3.20 to win as the wagering favorite.
After the seventh race on the program, the second annual Horse Power Challenge took place on the racetrack between NASCAR drivers Andrew Ranger and LP Dumoulin in an exhibition event.
Last year Ranger won the inaugural race in double-seater jogging carts. This year Ranger competed with coach Jocelyn Gendron, driving Cooking The Speed and Dumoulin was with his coach from last year, Stephane Brosseau with Missionoftheheart.
It was Ranger and Gendron that went to the early lead and a dogfight ensued as Dumoulin and Brosseau came right away on the outside, but could not clear to the lead.
The race was for three-quarters of a mile, going the first quarter in :32.2, the half mile in 1:03.4 and that was when Missionoftheheart had enough parked on the outside and settled back into second place as Ranger and Gendron won by three lengths in 1:38.3.
Stephane Brosseau led all drivers with three winners on the program. Marie Claude Auger had a driving and training double. With one win Thursday, Francis Richard took the lead in the H3R Trainer Standings 16 to 15 over Michel Allard.
Track Notes: Live racing takes a week off due to the auto Grand Prix in Trois-Rivieres and resumes next Friday, August 16 for the Prix D'Ete weekend at H3R. Friday evening's card features the second round of the Future Stars Series for two-year-old trotters and pacers. Then on Sunday, August 18 it is the 6th renewal of the $200,000C Prix D'Ete, featuring many of the top four-year-old pacers in North America.

Innovative strategies to help students survive, adapt, and attain prosperity in today's environment of change
not an option for success
This paper examines the way project management is studied and practiced in two different programs (Masters in Instructional Technology and Students in Free Enterprise) in two different disciplines (Education and Business) in two different universities (Midwest and Northeast US). The comparison suggests that project management may have a broader application than is currently recognized and that modified versions of project management courses may have a place in the market.
Organizations are currently facing constant, rapid, diverse changes (Harrison, McKinnon, & Wu, 2000; Byham, 1999; Nah & Lau, 2001; Ulrich, 2000; Akkermans, & van Helden, 2002). Technology is a prime driver of the change along with market competitiveness and global expansion. Companies need to respond to the drivers, but also go beyond them by addressing the fundamental business processes within their organizations. Technology is not only causing significant change, but also, as it cycles through its short generations of new product version development, impelling change with impressive speed. Companies must develop new skills and processes to recognize those elements of change that can be made beneficial and use them to advance profitably. (Nah, & Lau, 2001; Ulrich, 2000; Akkermans, & van Helden, 2002). Colvin (1997) argues that creating a sustainable competitive advantage is more than using technology. Technology is the "price of entry" and must be developed, but the competitive advantage comes from developing people. Real competitive edge comes from focusing on and working with the culture, leadership, and overall character of the workforce. When observed at the present time through this prism, educational institutions, by the nature of their mission, have a dual goal. They need to concentrate on their own internal enhancement and adaptability of their culture, leadership, and workforce and also find the means to transfer it to the students, whom the institution serves, to enable them to become professionals who will be able to effectively improve the organizations in which they will work.
Collard (2002) argues that when companies change from stable environments to one of crisis, the leadership needs to change accordingly. Crisis situations are characterized by rapid change, intense criticality of time regarding taking action, and the need for clear communication. If schools are to survive in the crisis-ridden societal environment of today they need to adopt practices that will help them optimize the process of making decisions and taking action. Academic programs that prepare students to assume leadership positions in schools, districts, or broader educational organizations need to find the means to include in their preparation a set of skills that will enable them to survive and prosper when facing crisis situations. This paper explores the implications and benefits seen by two university-level programs and their students in the inclusion of project management principles and applications to help to solve educational and business-related problems. The programs in discussion here are both located in the United States: one a masters program in instructional technology at a Northeastern university and the other an initiative named Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE) connected to an undergraduate business school at a Midwestern university.
Instructional Technology Specialist and Project Management
The Instructional Technology Specialist (ITS) Master Program discussed here is located in a Northeastern university of 8,000 to 9,000 students. The program is designed to prepare students to be skilled professionals who are capable of assuming leadership roles (e.g., Director of Technology) within the field of instructional technology in individual schools, school districts, or regional educational settings. The initial introduction to organizational management is done through course work in which the students learn about instructional system design and practice through projects on the application of systematic process to compose an instructional solution to organizational problems. In this process they learn about needs analysis, goals, design of solutions, development, implementation, and evaluation. This work enables them with the knowledge and skill necessary for them to carry on the projects they will deal with professionally.
In one of the last sequences of required courses, project management is addressed. Through readings, individual and group work, and discussions, the students are introduced to such principles of project management (PM) as defining the scope of a project, anticipating the elements of scope creep, establishing a development timeline, defining the cost of development, determining the level of quality of each deliverable and ways to measure it, deciding how many and what kind of professionals are needed to complete the tasks, ascertaining the communication channels and frequency necessary for completion of the project, creating a risk management strategy, and arranging for the procurement of the resources for the project. They then produce a report proposing a technology integration plan to solve a school problem by applying the project management principles discussed previously.
The work of an ITS requires constant interaction with a wide range of personnel, including teachers, administrators, students, institutions of higher education, and funding organizations. The ITS must know how, when, and with whom to persuade, demand, compromise, take orders, and postpone. To do this variety of communication well calls for both talent and acquired skill. Because clear and continual communication is a necessity in the career of ITS professionals, the course applying PM principles to ITS activity includes numerous exercises designed to promote communication in various forms: structured discussion, presentations, group work, and writing. In the process of learning about project management, for example, the students, after reading about it, discuss it in an instructor-led session, break into groups to prepare a presentation on a specific aspect of it, come together again for each group to present, and then evaluate the presentations. An important part of developing writing skills is supplied by the Web log, or blog, that each student creates at the beginning of the course. During the course, the students post blog entries that record student perceptions of their progress. Because reflection on the what, why, and how of the course activities is so important, blog guidelines tend to be specific. For example, after the completion of the course assignment "Project management applied to a Technology Integration Plan" the blog posting directions are "Write and post a reflection piece, 400 to 700 words long, on your learning experience of the project management approach and how it can be used to enhance technology integration projects in schools."
Practicing Project Management in SIFE
In a slightly different environment, project management concepts were utilized to help support students involved in Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE), a global organization that supports free enterprise concepts at hundreds of colleges and universities around the world. At a Midwestern university of about 16,000 students, SIFE is a very active organization that develops and delivers training programs for disadvantaged youths in two local school districts. The SIFE team has won several awards for their work and is viewed as one of the premier student organizations on campus.
Part of their success stems from the fact that they have continued to develop their ability to effectively manage projects. As is the case in most situations, they support short term projects performed by a single individual as well as long term projects extended over several months and supported by students, faculty members, and volunteer business professionals.
In order to more effectively manage this complexity, the team has recognized the need to develop their leadership skills. Koestenbaum (2003) has developed a context for leadership called the "Leadership Diamond". Within the structure of the Diamond, he develops the concepts of Vision, Reality, Ethics, and Courage as the main components of a leadership mind. The leadership theory that is employed at SIFE is similar to the Diamond and serves the team by simply accepting that leadership is synonymous with the acronym "VALUE". The V stands for Vision and is articulated via the creation of a feasible Scope statement. This has become a standard term used within the SIFE team to ensure that everyone knows the objectives of the project. The AL stands for Alignment; the components of the project are aligned through a viable work breakdown structure (WBS) and Timeline. Extensive use of mind mapping via the Mind Jet software package supports the alignment and facilitates distribution of information among the people involved. The letter U stands for Understanding, which is ensured by frequent status meetings with the entire team to review projects. Lastly, the letter E stands for Enactment. The project is enacted and becomes a reality through execution and close attention to detail and follow through.
Over the past year, the team has successfully completed several long term projects. During this time, they successfully ran a week-long entrepreneurship camp for high school students, co-authored the development of a business plan for cognitively impaired students in one of the local high schools, developed a product/service offering to help 8th grade students transition to high school more successfully, and conducted numerous one-hour-long workshops in support of the local school systems.
But why were they successful? How did they apply project management concepts in support of these endeavors? Initially, many of the students were not sure what project management would do for them. They viewed it simply as a process of populating an MS Project timeline and did not see how it supports the comprehensive needs of the project. Evening work sessions designed to acquaint them with the project management concepts contained in the A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) helped them over this hurdle. Another effective resource was the use of brainstorming software (Mind Jet) to develop and clarify the scope of the different projects. The project management concepts were then continually reinforced in status meetings by making the project plans visible and relevant.
Almost all of the students embraced the concepts quickly and demonstrated the ability to effectively manage projects by zeroing in on the key elements. However, project management can be an extensive discipline, so in this environment, the focus tended to be on the following four areas: 1. Create an unambiguous scope statement; 2. Identify who is going to do what, when; 3. Identify how progress is to be communicated; and 4. Expect accountability and follow through by everyone involved in the project. This approach has given the SIFE team the ability to apply the most relevant concepts to their environment while still exposing the students to the true breadth of project management knowledge.
Essentially, students need help to overcome two possible sticking points in their development of project management knowledge. The first is awareness. The evening sessions that facilitate their learning about the PMBOK® Guide help them over the first hurdle. The second involves implementation. By focusing on the elements that serve them the most, they are able to implement the concepts without getting bogged down in too much detail. Project elegance will come for them in time as they add more depth and breadth to their knowledge. While in school, they have the opportunity to learn and apply the concepts in a positive manner by focusing on the basic requirements for project success.
Students are on a steep learning curve and most of their academic pursuits are done with an eye toward the grade that they will receive. In the SIFE environment, they do not receive a grade. Instead, they get to see the successful completion of a project and a satisfied customer. These results are more relevant to the working environment, and the students truly prosper in an environment that empowers them to have an impact. Also, in the course of their university studies students are very frequently assigned to projects in their regular classes. Unfortunately, the concepts of project management are not developed extensively during the early years of their academic careers, and as a result they often struggle with many of their projects until they gain relevant experience. The SIFE students' learning about project management helps them both with their SIFE projects and with the myriad of projects they encounter during their normal course participation.
Overcoming Resistance in the Instructional Technology Specialist
The initial reaction of the students towards project management is of resistance. They cannot immediately establish the usefulness or relationship of its principles to the solution of school-related problems, and they cannot imagine being able to implement the necessary discipline and attention to detail in a school setting. Many, however, by the end of the course, come to embrace the PM process. This is illustrated by excerpts from reflective blog postings.
As one student put it,
The biggest reflection of the Project Management approach is the differences between business and public education. Project Management is a common thing and the way we do business. We use planning tools, scope out the project, and address issues on quality and risk management every day. All of this comes natural to us in the corporate world. It just seems so much more difficult to do this in the schools. Another student's reflection says:
Project management is not a new concept to me. I have used the process informally over the last ten years…. Any project that is a one-of-a-kind enterprise…presents a complex management situation with many variables, some of which may be unknown…. The very worst part of the process is to have to provide answers…regarding one or more of the unknown variables…. I must both make up the answer and supporting data, and hope that all will work out…. The new information I have gained in this course…will help me to identify and document those unknown variables…. On the downside of learning new information about project management, I can no longer approach a project, size it up based on past experience, and dive right in hoping for a successful outcome. [The PM process]…is unwieldy and unwise in terms of both time and financial responsibility for an organization to rely on those skills in a single person…. While I will seek to use my new project management knowledge in my professional capacities, I believe I will continue to be restricted by limited time resources to provide just-in-time solutions….
Another post:
So far, in this course I have learned a lot of new information about project management as a whole, as well as the intricacies of the management process. I had never heard of a Gantt chart before this class, nor had I participated in a project management plan that the team actually wrote out the potential risks, risk management, or thought about the communication process. It seems focus was primarily on getting the job completed and our successes were pure luck.
Another post:
As someone who works professionally in the educational technology field, I am involved in many technology integration projects, both as a key player, and an observer. It seems to me that far too often projects are taken on and implemented…with lack of forethought and planning…. When troubles such as maintenance, compatibility, training, or a host of others arise (as they are bound to in this scenario), there is no idea how to deal with them At this point, the finger pointing usually starts. The project dies a not-so-peaceful death, and the players go their separate ways…. I remember several years ago, a consultant came into the institution to give a seminar on project management. There was grumbling from some participants who couldn't understand why they were being asked to attend. I still remember a quote from one attendee: "Project management? Why do we have to listen to that? We don't do that here…" By studying the risks and scope creep items and developing a contingency plan for the inevitability of the less-than-ideal situation, we greatly enhance our chances of success.
The ITS students included in this discussion generally shared the perceptions shown in the above postings. Many were impressed with the logic and practicality of the PM principles and at the same time found the complete PM process too time-consuming, too complete, too ideal, to be practiced in its entirety in their workplace. Most indicated, however, that they would like to be able to.
SIFE Students' Reaction to Project Management
There are two students in the SIFE team who truly maximized their learning with regard to PM principles. One was the president of the local SIFE (referred to here as K), and the other a SIFE project manager (referred to here as L). When asked about project management and the effect it had on them, here is what they said.
K said that initially he thought project management meant handling a project, but he did not know the details. Now it is much broader and makes a lot of sense. To approximate K's statement, "You start with the scope, lay out the work breakdown structure, do a timeline, and manage the resources. Without the focus on the scope statement we would all come to the project with different opinions and expectations." Defining a clear Scope has been very valuable for him. He also said that resistance is not significant in the student population. Once they see how Project Management will serve them, they are very willing to embrace the concepts.
L also reinforced the ideas of a scope statement and student acceptance, but he went on to state how important project management would have been for him to learn earlier in his college career. He felt that incorporation of the concepts into academic curricula would be very valuable. He also learned the importance of a good risk management plan and emphasized the need to be very clear in the planning phase regarding what contingencies might come up and how best to handle them. He did acknowledge that in one of his projects, he did not have alternative strategies clearly documented, and as a result had to do some last minute scrambling to get the project completed.
These students are engaged in learning about project management. PM concepts are helping them deal with the ambiguity of their projects, and by having the PM framework to operate within they are able to assess what needs to improve in future projects. They both stated very clearly that more marketing of PM to students is needed in order to show them the benefits and that PM should be included as part of the academic projects that they are assigned.
This comparison of different programs demonstrates the broad application of PM principles and suggests that including PM in diverse courses of study may be a highly useful addition. Fields as diverse as psychology and stage design, biology and debate, any course, in fact, where a task must be completed within a set of conditions, might benefit from the PM process. PM could perhaps be equated with English, not specifically taught in all courses but understood to be necessary in all, or at least most, courses in an English-speaking environment.
Another perspective generated by this discussion is that an abbreviated version of PM, a PM "light," might be more practical in some instances. Studying the environment of public schools, for example, could enlarge understanding of what parts of PM, and what intensity, would be possible, and practical, to apply there. This could result in designing specialized PM training that would impact specific venues.
CAPM Implications
Students like those whose comments are reviewed above could well be qualified, or want expend a little extra effort to become qualified, to earn Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM®) certification, the newly developed certification standard instituted by PMI. Although CAPM® is designed for people with less experience than those attracted to the Project Management Professional (PMP®) certification, its value is built on the solid project management concepts of PMBOK® Guide. Two specific steps would help such students begin the journey toward CAPM®:
- Acquaint them with the PMBOK® Guide and Project Management concepts in a way that serves them in their daily activities. The SIFE program does that by incorporating the concepts into the attainment of the program's projects while the ITS program includes the concepts as an integral part of the curriculum.
- Encourage them to document their efforts within the process areas of Initiation, Planning, Executing, Managing and Controlling, and Closing. By doing so, they are learning what is included in these concepts and also building a personal portfolio of experiences to be used in the CAPM® application process when appropriate.
Both of these steps would serve the student population well. It would give them the structure to help with their projects and encourage them, while still in school, to lay out their personal plans for attainment of the CAPM® certification. By getting involved in student organizations such as SIFE and learning to apply good project management techniques, they will do better in school, be more marketable when they graduate, and be better positioned to launch their professional careers as project managers.

"I finally brought myself to watch it," Malek says. "I thought, 'Oh, that's not that bad. I don't find myself offensive.'"
Malek says he has no problem taking photos with fans he just wants to know what's going on first.
"I am happy to take photos with anyone. I just want to be aware of what people are doing in the moment. When someone films you automatically, it's a bit intrusive," Malek says.
Malek was able to find the humor in the situation and says he may even share the story on "Ellen."
"I'm laughing about it," Malek says.. "I'm going to do Ellen, and I'm thinking about bringing it up because I find it so funny."

This couple purchased a grand old home in Jenkintown, PA that required major renovations to the kitchen, bar, and bathrooms throughout the home. Raphael Architects collaborated with Twining Construction to provide seamless design build service to the owners.
An existing porch was demolished and integrated into the kitchen area. Long span beams replaced two walls of the porch, to create a simple rectangular space for the kitchen to occupy. The kitchen design is dominated by a five feet wide by ten and half feet long island. The island's monolithic slab of marble will support the major working surface of the kitchen as well as the countertop stools for the family to participate in the kitchen activities. Hutch-like furniture surrounds the island creating space for the cooking, refrigeration, cleaning and storage. A coffered ceiling reinforces the simple order of the kitchen centered on the island. A contiguous bar supports family entertaining in the adjacent public rooms.
On the second floor, all bathrooms were completely gutted down to the stone construction. New designs for a master, Jack and Jill, hall, and an en suite bathroom include new framing, thermal enclosure, heating, electricity, lighting, plumbing, fixtures and finishes transform the home. Selective demolition is complete with rough framing to follow shortly. The home should be ready for occupancy earl this spring.

About Eddy Paape
Edouard Paape commonly known as Eddy Paape, was a Belgian comics artist best known for illustrating the series Luc Orient. Eddy Paape was born in Grivegnée (now a part of Liège), Belgium in 1920. He started his career as an animator, working from 1942 on at CBA, the same animation studio where a few years later he would be joined by future Belgian cartoonists André Franquin, Peyo, and Morris). Paape soon left the studio to work as a cover artist and later a cartoonist for different magazines of publisher Dupuis. He began working with famed Belgian cartoonist Jijé, first on his ambitious New Testament comic project Emmanuel. He then succeeded Jijé as illustrator of the detective series Valhardi, published in the Franco-Belgian comics magazine Spirou.

Find a Job You Really Want In
To get started, tell us where you'd like to work.
Sorry, we can't find that. Please try a different city or state.
Job interviews can be tough. Along with preparing to answer the most common interview questions, conquering your nerves, and making sure you have all of the necessary materials — you also have to make sure you make a good impression on your interviewer.
Here's the deal:
First impressions are important, especially when it comes to job interviews. People decide how they feel about someone within the first few minutes of meeting them. To make matters worse, it's nearly impossible to recover from making a bad first impression, so you'll want to make sure you do everything you can to make a good one.
Sound scary enough? Don't panic! Making a good impression isn't as hard as it seems. Keep reading to learn the 10 ways you can make a bad first impression at an interview, and what you can do to avoid them.
What's a great way to show that you just don't "get" the company and would never, not ever, fit in at all? Dress in a way that doesn't mirror the company culture! If you show up at a research lab wearing a clown costume, you can expect to stand out — in a bad way. Bonus tip: "Business casual" does not equate with "sweatpants."
During an interview, you want to show employers that you're going to fit in and be fun to work with. Do some research on the company to get a feel for their culture, and if you're totally at a loss, just ask the person coordinating the interview for some input.
Speaking of how to dress for an interview, you should definitely look like you actually put some effort into picking out an outfit — not like you rolled out of bed, picked up whatever on the floor didn't smell dirty, threw it on, and called it a day.
When picking out our interview outfit, avoid wrinkled shirts, anything with stains, scuffed or dirty shoes, five o'clock shadow, etc. Put some effort into your appearance so you can at least look like you care, even if you're being forced to go to this interview by your dad who wants you to move out of the basement immediately. Otherwise, you'll be stuck in your parents' basement for a long time.
Whether you bathed yourself in a bottle of your grandmother's vintage perfume or you haven't showered in two (going on three) weeks, you can definitely expect your interviewer to not have the greatest impression of you.
Make sure to be clean to avoid smelling like a ripe gym sock, and if you do decide to wear perfume or cologne, keep it light. Your goal is to show the interviewer that you'd be a great addition to their team, not to suffocate them with your odor.
Whether you're being condescending to the receptionist, not using your manners, or just acting like a huge jerk in general, showing up to an interview with a chip on your shoulder is no way to land a job.
Being friendly and having a positive attitude at an interview is important, if not essential, in getting a job offer. You want to show employers that you're kind, confident, and optimistic, not that you're a rude selfish jerk who couldn't see the bright side if it slapped him in the face.
One of the most important rules of interview etiquette is to show up to your interview a few minutes early, or at the very least, on time. Being late shows that you have poor time management skills, and it can make interviewers think you're just inconsiderate. Don't be one of those people.
Make sure to double check that you've written down the correct day and time so you don't completely miss your interview, or show up 30 minutes late. Give yourself plenty of time to get there, and aim to show up 10-15 minutes early. If you show up any earlier, wait in the parking lot for a few minutes before you head inside — being too early is almost as bad as being late.
Your interview is your chance to sell yourself to employers and show them that you're the best person for the job. You don't want to risk being too humble and downplaying your suitability for the job, and you can't rely your references to bail you out.
Talk about your qualifications and how they relate to the job, and always have stories and examples to back up your claims. It's up to you to show employers why you deserve the job, so don't blow it.
The interviewer is taking time out of their busy schedule to meet with you, so don't act like an unappreciative jerk by constantly checking the time, or worse, your phone. That's just rude.
During the interview, keep your attention on the interviewer. Turn your phone off and make sure it stays out of sight. And please, for the love of all that is holy, do not interrupt your interviewer to take a selfie.
There's no better way to tell an employer "I have no idea what I'm doing" than not being able to answer the most common interview questions, and not knowing anything about the company.
Take some time beforehand to prepare for the interview.Google the company, check out their social media profiles, and review the job listing. Take it a step further and match your qualifications to the job requirements so you can tell the interviewer exactly why you're the perfect fit.
Make sure to read over the most common questions you can expect to hear during an interview. Prepare your answers, and have examples on hand to back up the skills and experience you claim to have.
Just do yourself a favor and do your homework, you'll thank us later.
A quick and easy way to make an awful impression and get your job opportunity flushed down the toilet is to lie on your resume or during the interview.
There's no way to know how thoroughly an employer is going to check your background, so just don't risk it. The most common lies employers run into are
Even if you make it through the interviewing process unscathed, you won't be able to deliver on your first day. Then, my friend, you risk being fired. Moral of the story? Just don't it.
We can't emphasize enough how important it is to send a follow up email to thank the interviewer. It shows that you're considerate, thoughtful, and it gives you the opportunity to reiterate your interest in the job. Make sure to send your thank you letter within one business day of the interview to lock down the job.
Job interviews are hard enough on their own, there's no use making it even harder on yourself by making a bad impression. First impressions can dictate the rest of the interview, and it's pretty hard to recover if you make a bad one.
Even though it sounds scary, there's no need to panic! With a little preparation beforehand, you're sure to make a great impression and win over employers at your interview.
Now it's time to study up on those interview questions, do some research on the company, pick out the perfect outfit, and land the job!

Well, Super Bowl XLIX (2015,) the end to a scandalous, headline-packed, NFL season is in the bag. Needless to say, the game was a nail-biter, complete with miraculous catches, horrible play calls, and a game-winning interception. While the Super Bowl itself is obviously newsworthy, what may be getting just as much press this week is, yes, you guessed it, the commercials.
Doritos and Budweiser may have taken the cake when it comes to being the fan favorites, but there were so many great Super Bowl commercials this year, especially in comparison to previous Big Game spots. You've probably seen them all already (thank you internet,) but below is a list of my top 7 favorite commercials from Super Bowl 2015, XLIX.
1. Dodge: "Wisdom"
This isn't the first time I've written about a Dodge ad. With their Spirit of the Dodge Brothers campaign setting the stage, and "Wisdom" driving it home (no pun intended,) Dodge is forcing you to realize their heritage. I have to admit, this one gave me goosebumps, made me want a Dodge, and made me want to call my grand parents.
2. Carnival: "Come Back to the Sea"
So, since the incident with one of their cruise ships getting stuck in the Gulf of Mexico after an on-board fire, we haven't heard much out of the cruise industry giant, Carnival. But, low and behold, they made the list for my top favorites with this emotional call to "Come Back to the Sea." The use of JFK's speech has caused controversy among some, but I, for one, thought it was near perfect.
3. Clash of Clans: "Revenge"
Ahh, Clash of Clans. My personal favorite in mobile "tower-defense" gaming. I've been a huge fan of their commercials in the past, and they did not disappoint with their newest – "Revenge." They cleverly took the commercial out of the digital world and showcased Liam Neeson in his typical mannerism, seeking revenge on an enemy. Classic Neeson.
4. Skittles: "Settle It"
Leave it to Skittles to bring us one of the weirdest, most memorable spots from the Super Bowl. Beefed up babies, dogs and men settle their disputes the "usual way" in this lopsided fantasy land. Why not?
5. Always: "Like a Girl"
Until seeing this commercial, it never occurred to me the amount the phrase "like a girl" is used. Much less, how offensive it is. Always' commercial demonstrates the perception of female strength, and then acts towards flipping that perception in young women. Women are powerful, and this commercial is as well.
6. Loctite: "Positive Feelings"
You know, this one is hard to say much about besides "Please play this again!" This commercial isn't emotional, it isn't deep, it doesn't include any hidden undertones, but it is just pure awesome. With the right mixture of reggae music, strange characters and fanny packs, the next time I need two things to stick together, I'm reaching for Loctite.
7. Coke: "Make it Happy"
What's there to say about Coke? You can always count on them to give you a warm, fuzzy feeling after watching a commercial of theirs. Coke has always been about spreading happiness to the world, and nothing has changed in this spot, except this time, they've targeted online bullying.
Well, there you have it. My top seven favorite Super Bowl commercials of 2015. Were there any favorites of yours that I didn't mention above? Leave a comment below or let me know on Twitter – @HOOKDin. Don't forget to subscribe to stay up on the latest!

Hello Cleveland!
Cleveland is an awesome place for Gay Living and being out, loud and proud! And the LGBT Center of Greater Cleveland is so welcoming. It's an exciting place to be with tons of different activities going on simultaneously.
We arrived at about 6:00 pm -found parking RIGHT outside, yay! And used our new hand truck to dolly half our gear/merch into the space. I think we're going to name our hand truck - what do you think we should name it??? - and we got inside and bam - hit the ground running. Kristen had a huge merch table to put everything out - I had a lovely green room with sandwiches and oranges and two LGBT Center 40th Anniversary mugs as gifts to us. Make up, clothes and off to the races!
The beginning of the show was a bit off -- a young man came and sat up on stage with me! He was fine until he started pulling a Statler/Waldorf routine, heckling me from on stage! I totally handled it in stride, broke character and asked him to please give me room to do my show. He eventually obliged, with the help of some staff members from the Center. But that didn't trip me up. It was ok. I jumped back into the show and it was - relatively - smooth sailing from there. :-)
One of the coolest perks to staying in Cleveland is that we're being put up at the Clifford House, a B-n-B run by James Minor. If you are ever in Cleveland, this is the place to stay! Totally. James is such a great host and his home is GORGEOUS. This is the room I got to stay in! Yay!
Right? How gorgeous is that? Thank you to LGBT Center of Greater Cleveland and the Clifford House for the great hospitality.
Due to snow craziness, school was canceled at Warren High School in Vincent, OH, so our gig there this morning isn't happening. But I had a long talk with the GSA advisor and we're going to try and set something up for the fall - she's had a number of students struggle with suicide attempts and ideation, so she really wants the show. Plus there's another school near Cleveland that contacted me about performing. So, I think I'm coming back to Ohio in the Fall!
Here's the group shot of us at the Center!

The eight-song demo from IHATE, the project featuring SIX FEET UNDER frontman Chris Barnes and multi-instrumentalist/fellow horror enthusiast Bob Taggett, can be streamed below. It is also available for purchase as a digital download via CDBaby.
Relays Barnes of the project's formation: "Early last year I got a message via Facebook from someone named Bob and Bob said to me, as a lot of people do, 'I have some songs and I'd like you to sing on them. Can I send you a song so you could check it out?'
"I get a lot of these requests and didn't think too much of it, but since I was just fresh back from a tour and a little bored, I decided to entertain the idea of listening to a song from Bob. After receiving an email with the first track that was attached to a video which more or less mapped out a murder storyline, I thought it was really different, and definitely creepy visually. And there was something very primitive and energetic to the attack of the music. It was very driven. I could feel it instantly. I knew this wasn't a joke and wasn't done half-assed. The music I was listening to was aggressive as a knife carving chunks of flesh off a body. Putting the music to a video caught my attention, immediately, as to Bob's focus. I found it all really interesting.
"I have almost always worked from a storyline in my head for my lyrical inspiration and my own imagination, but never have started from the standpoint of lyrically scoring a storyline already laid out on video first, like scoring a film. That seemed really exciting to me as a writer as well as a vocalist. I emailed Bob back and told him I would love to be involved with making this album with him. So one thing led to another and we began writing and recording."
As for what true death metal miscreants can expect from the IHATE end product?
"To me, it really is a masterpiece of brutal, violent death metal," says Barnes.
"I'm really stoked that I got to work on this album.
"The fans know that I'm no stranger to writing some sick lyrics, but the stuff I have come up with this time is entirely over-the-top even by my standards.
"I really want the fans to hear this album and dig into the storylines of the songs."

World's greatest literature enthusiast runs into a sight - er - slight dilemma during the post-atomic apocalypse.
As the holiday season quickly comes and goes it's time to rememember that other annual tradition - The Twilight Zone marathon. The Sleazeblender is proud to begin a tradition of it's own, new for 2010, each day for the next two weeks The Seaze-A-Saurus will publish a review of the episodes that made the series great.
Ladies and germs, welcome to the Twilight Zone Episode Guide.
Rod Serling, the creator of the series, was a brash genius who used his one-of-a-kind production talents to examine cultural traditions, oppressive fear and military morality into 21-minute-long suspense driven episodes confronting post-war American life. For TV, even by modern standards, this is unheard of. TV, for generations, has existed to obscure reality not to confront it! To confront paranoia and prevailing social anxieties in the "duck and cover" era of Lassie and the Dick Van Dyke Show in the 1950's seems an impossible challenge. Cue Jerry Goldsmith's guitar-and-bongo riff right here. Welcome to the 5th dimension campers - the Twilight Zone.
Time Enough At Last (from the first season of the series, episode 8) was first broadcast in November 1959, as the fear of a imminent devastating nuclear war with Russia seemed inevitable. Time Enough tells "the story of a man who seeks salvation in the rubble of a ruined world".
The episode begins with Serling stepping into frame to deliver his sly, trademarked setting of the scene, doing so unnoticed in the middle of a busy bank:
"Witness Mr. Henry Bemis, a charter member in the fraternity of dreamers. A bookish little man whose passion is the printed page but who is conspired against by a bank president and a wife and a world full of tongue-cluckers and the unrelenting hands of a clock. But in just a moment Mr. Bemis will enter a world without bank presidents or wives or clocks or anything else. He'll have a world all to himself, without anyone."
Enter henpecked bank teller Henry Bemis, played by Burgess Meredith. He loves books, yet is surrounded by those who prevent him from reading them. The episode follows Bemis through the end of the world, touching on social issues as unlikely as anti-intellectualism, atomic warfare, and the difference between solitude and loneliness.
Bemis, gathering books by the hundred, is at last undone by fatefull accident. The civilized world that had prevented him from reading has been swept away and is no longer present to make a simple repair his broken glasses. The episode closes as Bemis bemoans his fate, surrounded by years worth of books he'd intended to read, clutching the remains of his broken glasses and wailing: "That's not fair. That's not fair at all. There was time now. There was all the time I needed...!"

For Jerry Belant, The World is A Research Lab
By Alison Fromme
Photographs courtesy of Camp Fire Program in Wildlife Conservation
On a cold snowy day last spring, Jerry Belant leaned over a big gray crate with his hand on the latch, his bright yellow flight suit contrasting sharply against the white snow and the stationary helicopter behind him.
"OK, everybody ready?" he said calmly, looking up at his collaborators. "OK, three, two, one." He opened the door and stepped back.
A wolf burst forth, bounding across the snow. The animal, with its shaggy grayish white coat, struggled a bit to find its footing. A long journey had brought it to this point — first captured in Canada's Michipicoten Island Provincial Park, then transported by helicopter, weighed and analyzed by a team of researchers (including Belant, who had peered into its mouth to inspect its pearly teeth), and finally relocated to Michigan's Isle Royale National Park.
The animal stumbled a bit in the crunchy snow before disappearing into the shadows of the woods. A video made by The National Parks of Lake Superior Foundation documented this scene.
Belant is the inaugural Camp Fire Conservation Fund Professor of Wildlife Conservation at ESF and relocated himself to upstate New York in August 2018 to start the new job. Here he leads an interdisciplinary team of field staff, research associates, graduate students and postdoctoral scholars in studies encompassing diverse animals and ecosystems, from northern Michigan wolves to Serengeti lions, from Missouri black bears to wild boar in Argentina.
"I'm interested both in ecological questions and conservation or management applications," he said matter-of-factly. "I also have the good fortune of working with the species I enjoy, so it's really the best of both worlds."
The Canadian wolf he set free on that day was one of seven recently relocated to the remote national park surrounded by Lake Superior's waters. The move is part of a long-term effort to restore the island's ecosystem.
Belant will study the ecosystem effects of the reintroduction. Will the wolves keep the moose population in check? Without as many moose browsing for food, will balsam fir and aquatic vegetation rebound? What will happen to scavengers such as ravens? And how will nutrient cycling change? The work is just beginning.
The northern Midwest landscape is intimately familiar to Belant, and his barely-there Midwest accent still comes through on occasion. He grew up in northern Wisconsin, tramping through the forests of sugar maples, hemlock and white pine year-round, spotting animals such as deer, black bears, coyotes and foxes. He
and his dad enjoyed hunting, fishing and trapping together.
"I fell in love with nature," he said. And that love prompted him to pursue studies in natural resources and wildlife ecology as an undergraduate and master's student at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point during the 1980s.
After working in various research positions at the National Park Service, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Fond du Lac Natural Resources Department in Wisconsin, Belant attended graduate school at University of Alaska Fairbanks and earned his Ph.D. in 2006. While there, he investigated the diet, reproduction and habitat use of overlapping populations of black and brown bears in south central Alaska.
"Moving to ESF in August 2018 was a 'no-brainer.' "
— Jerry Belant
He then spent 10 years on the faculty at Mississippi State University, where he was named the Dale H. Arner Distinguished Professor of Wildlife Ecology and Management. There he built a significant research program: habitat restoration for black bears, bird deterrent methods at airports, deer fawn survival, vulture roost dynamics, elk distribution and resource use, marten and fisher behavior and much, much more. Although he declines to boast about his accomplishments, his stellar record is clear: He has co-written three books and produced nearly 300 peer-reviewed publications that have been cited more than 4,500 times. He has also secured more than $14.5 million in grant funding since 2008.
In 2018, ESF hired him to become the inaugural Camp Fire Conservation Fund Professor of Wildlife Conservation.
Moving to ESF in August 2018 was a "no-brainer," Belant said. He already admired ESF, with its great reputation and widely known and respected faculty members. He was happy to join the "cadre of outstanding scientists" here. Plus, the move was a great fit for his family. He and his wife, Mary-Kay Belant, enjoy the snow and the changing four seasons. The airport offered good travel options for visiting their grown kids. Someone considering a big life decision like this might make a list of pros and cons, Belant explained. But in this case, the cons list was blank. It was a win-win, personally and professionally — and he has now set the stage to continue his work here and around the world.
Just a few months before Belant wrangled wolves in the snow this past spring, he was seeking lions in the Serengeti, a few miles south of the equator. For the past four years, he and his collaborators have been working to reduce conflicts between lions and people — and better understand lion population ecology. Because of land use changes, lions are found in less than 10 percent of their historical range. And yet in the past, Belant said, accurately counting the populations has relied on less than optimal methods. His work aims to solve this problem and provide the conservation community and local governments with accurate and precise numbers.
Every trip to the Serengeti is different, he said. Once, he and his team got in their Land Rovers and drove several thousand kilometers, spotting just four lions and snapping two pictures. More recently, during the season of the "little rains," he and his team drove across the endless plains and through the acacia tree woodlands. A spotter found a lion, then a vet darted it. The team moved in with its gear — stethoscope, pulse oximeter, needles, an umbrella, water — to take measurements, collect blood and hair samples, and fit the collar. Then they set up a huge tripod and lifted the animal in a sling, with a block and tackle, to weigh it.
"When you go through the effort and expense and have the animal in that vulnerable state, we want to maximize potential research value while minimizing potential harm," he said.
In total for this project, Belant's team has captured and collared 20. The goal is three-fold: collect data to refine population estimates, help local governments establish appropriate hunting quotas, and identify potential human-lion conflict in real time — and intervene before a problem becomes catastrophic. So far, Belant has found that the lion population is larger than previously thought, at least in the area where they are working.
"That doesn't mean lion conservation isn't important or that there isn't a decline compared with past levels," he explained. "But in some areas where lions occur, it may not be as dire as currently thought. So with the work we and others are doing, we can now get accurate data, scientifically credible data, and better prioritize our efforts to benefit lion conservation."

The 50 Hottest Cities in America
Summer has arrived, and with it a brutal heat wave that has scorched the western United States. The temperature was expected to soar to 119 in Phoenix on Tuesday, a June 20 record for the city. Temps might climb to 127 in the aptly-named Death Valley.
The severe heat has canceled flights out of Phoenix and has been blamed for buckling roads, raging fires, and power outages in California, the nation's most populous state.
Excessive heat warnings have been issued for inland California, southern Nevada, and parts of southwest Arizona through Friday. More than 29 million residents in California are under a heat warning or advisory.

Heat kills more people in the United States, over a 30-year average, than any other natural hazard, according to the National Weather Service. Last year, excessive heat was blamed for 94 fatalities, second only to the 126 deaths attributed to flooding.
The National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration reported Monday that the average global temperature in May 2017 was 1.49 degrees above the 20th-century May average of 58.6 degrees. This May was the third-hottest on record since the organization began collecting data in 1880.
The year-to-date average global temperature through may was 1.66 degrees above the 20th-century average of 55.5 degrees. This is the second-warmest for this period, behind the record set in 2016.
24/7 Wall St. reviewed data from the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration on U.S. cities that report the most days a year with exceptionally high temperatures.

International Humanitarian Law
What is international humanitarian law?
International humanitarian law (IHL) is a set of rules which seek, for humanitarian reasons, to limit the effects of armed conflict. It protects persons who are not or are no longer participating in the hostilities and restricts the means and methods of warfare by prohibiting weapons that make no distinction between combatants and civilians or weapons and methods of warfare which cause unnecessary injury, suffering and/or damage. IHL is also known as the law of war or the law of armed conflict.
Humanitarian law has therefore banned the use of many weapons, including exploding bullets, chemical and biological weapons, blinding laser weapons and anti-personnel mines.
IHL is part of international law, which is the body of rules governing relations between States. International law is contained in agreements between States (treaties or conventions), in customary rules, which consist of State practise considered by them as legally binding, and in general principles.
IHL applies to armed conflicts. It does not regulate whether a State may actually use force; this is governed by an important, but distinct, part of international law set out in the United Nations Charter.
Why did international humanitarian law originate?
IHL is rooted in the rules of ancient civilizations and religions, and premised on the simple idea that some things are not permitted even in wartime. As such, warfare has always been subject to certain principles and customs.
Universal codification of IHL began in the nineteenth century. Since then, States have agreed to a series of practical rules, based on the bitter experience of modern warfare. Indeed, with each passing century, war has taken a higher toll in human lives with the 20th century being the bloodiest of all. This may be attributed, in part, to the new types of conflict that have emerged (wars of national liberation, guerilla warfare) and to the development of numerous high-performance weapons due to technological progress.
In fact, since the adoption of the Charter of the United Nations in 1945, war has no longer been an acceptable way to settle differences between States. The UN Charter states clearly that the threat or use of force against other States is unlawful. But it does not prohibit the use of force under three specific circumstances. In brief, they are (1) situations where a State has to defend itself, individually or collectively, against attacks on its independence or territory, in response to a (legal or illegal) use of force; (2) internal armed conflicts (or civil wars); and (3) Security Council actions taken under Chapter VII of the UN Charter to maintain or restore international peace and security.
Accordingly, a clear need existed for international rules that limit the effects of war on people and property, and protect certain particularly vulnerable groups of persons.
What are the basic rules of international humanitarian law in armed conflicts?
Persons hors de combat and those who do not take a direct part in hostilities are entitled to respect for their lives and their moral and physical integrity. They shall in all circumstances be protected and treated humanely without any adverse distinction.
It is forbidden to kill or injure an enemy who surrenders or who is hors de combat.
The wounded and sick shall be collected and cared for by the party to the conflict which has them in its power. Protection also covers medical personnel, establishments, transports and equipment. The emblem of the red cross or the red crescent is the sign of such protection and must be respected.
Captured combatants and civilians under the authority of an adverse party are entitled to respect for their lives, dignity, personal rights and convictions. They shall be protected against all acts of violence and reprisals, and have the right to correspond with...

What if instead of taking Atton on a vacation, Carth, Kreia, Pip & Bailey had had a conversation with Alexandra about what she was doing to Atton?
Tag Archives: Pip Goodfellow
Chapter 2.15
Welcome back to another chapter of Random Branches! In the last chapter Bailey and Atton made their plans to divorce public. The kids took it hard. And now on with the story!
Sinbad was on the phone with a high up criminal from Storybrook County. Called herself Revan. They were discussing the alliance to take down Darius when he got an incoming call. "Sorry, Revan, I need to take this. It's my son and we just had some family shattering news that I'm afraid just reached my college aged son and grandson, the plan sounds good. Talk to you next week," Sinbad said before taking the other call, "Afternoon, son. I hope you're doing well with your studies."
"Are finals…" Sinbad started to continue the conversation when Sion interrupted. Sinbad listened to what Sion said and said, "Yea, it's true. Atton and Bailey are getting divorced. We were going to wait until we heard you two were done with finals before telling you, but the best laid plans of mice and men." He finished the conversation up with Sion and hung up the phone.
Chapter 2.6
Welcome back to another chapter of Random Branches! In the last chapter, Canderous got accustomed to living with his father. Atton also got reacquainted with his best friend Bailey and quickly became more than friends. They were not dating for very long before Atton popped the question and Bailey said yes. And now on with the story.
Atton ran his hand through his hair for the tenth time that hour. The wait was killing him. He didn't understand what could be taking Bailey so long.
"Is she having second thoughts?" he wondered out loud.
Chapter 2.3
Welcome back to another chapter of Random Branches! In the last chapter Atton, Carth, Kreia, Bailey, and Pip went on a trip to Shang Simla to get Atton away from Alexandra. Atton did relax and enjoy himself, returning to more of his normal self. If you can call it normal. While Atton had made the connection, the others knew not to push it too hard. When they returned home, something was off. And now on to the story.
Chapter 2.2
Welcome back to another chapter of Random Branches! In the last chapter we discovered Sinbad had gotten abducted by aliens and was impregnated with one. He gave birth a couple days afterward to a boy he named Sion. Alexandra discovered she was pregnant and began to try to shape Atton to be the high society husband of her dreams. Much to the dismay of Atton's family and best friends. At the very end of the chapter Carth, Kreia, Bailey, and Pip had put into action a plan to help make Atton realize that Alexandra was bad for him. And now onto the story.
The trip to Shang Simla wasn't very eventful. Atton stared out of the window and hoped Alexandra wouldn't be too angry at him for taking the trip with his sister. She would only graduate once.
Chapter 2.1
Welcome back to another chapter of Random Branches! In the last chapter Atton made two best friends, Pip Goodfellow and Bailey Swain. He also met his first love, Alexandra Alto. He asked her to move in with him and she said yes. However, she's wanting them to move out of his parents house. And Sinbad screamed due to something unknown. And now on with the story!
When Kreia got outside, she saw her father being pulled up into what looked like some kind of spacecraft. "DAD!" Kreia yelled, thinking this might be the last time she saw him.
Chapter 2.0
Welcome back to another chapter of Random Branches! In the last chapter, Atton was saved from Rosalind's spells by Mother Fae. In return for saving his life, Alistair Mathiasen pulled in a few favors and got Atton a job at the local music theater. And now on with the story!
Atton was grateful for the job that Alistair had gotten him. Sure he wasn't playing music, but he could get a feel for what the audiences wanted by being out in the crowd with them. Because if one thing he had learned about himself was that he was a bit odd in what he liked. He got along well with his coworkers. Especially fairy Pip Goodfellow.
He and Pip would spend time hanging out at his house along with a friend that Pip had met during his run as a music critic. The friend was Bailey Swain. She was Atton's age and they got along well. She didn't mind Atton's quirks at all, which surprised Atton. Most people were weirded out by his quirks for a while.
