For those who know much about Middle Tennessee State University football the phrase Miracle in Murfreesboro has a bitter memory. This is what Troy calls the game in 2006 in which they scored two touchdowns in two minutes to come from behind and win the game and take the New Orleans Bowl away from the Raiders. Now we got our Miracle in Murfreesboro on a night that we had the first nationally broadcasted home game from Floyd Stadium on ESPN 2. The game was probably one of the worst games I have ever watched but the last 5:22 of the game was worth it. We were down 10-0 and with 5:22 left in the game we scored a touchdown to bring the score to 10-7.  Then FAU was only able to get a field goal in, which brought the score to 13-7 with 1:15 left in the game. Most people would just say that the game was over...but anyone that has been to most MTSU games would know that the game is never over till the time has run out. They made a good play to gain some more yards and then they had a couple of bad plays. It was 9 seconds and Craddock threw a hail mary to  the endzone. Malcolm Beyah jumped up into the air and caught the ball and scored the game tying touchdown. I wasn't exactly sure he caught it, I had to wait to see it from the officals because from up in the press box, where I was, all I had saw during the catch was a lot of white jerseys. When the officals gave the signal, I was so excited. But then as FAU kept calling timeouts and trying to freeze our freshman kicker Alan Gendreau out, I began to get a little nervous. I really didn't want to go to overtime. Finally Gendreau was able to kick the extra point and we won the game. I was so excited. After we got all our work done in the press box some of us stayed to watch Sports Center and got to see the clip. The next day I saw the clip on ESPN and ESPN 2 atleast 5 times. I think the best part was that they never talked about how horrible we had played that game. For once we were getting some positive media coverage. And it was nice to have them point out, that we were the only team to have beat Maryland at that point.  Future tip to anyone going to be at a MTSU game never leave till it's over.

No, I went to a community college, and then a university that is little known not only outside Florida, but within it as well. It has the usual assortment of sports teams, and several years ago it even acquired a football team, but on Thanksgiving or New Year's Day, you won't see it in the bowl games.

The college is called Florida Atlantic University, and its main campus is in Boca Raton, Fla. It has other campuses on the east coast, but my main experience was with the main place in Boca Raton.

During World War II, the site was part of an Army Air Forces training field, and on some of the streets you can see the old, faded markings of the field. The oldest dorms (mostly gone now, and not lamented) were once enlisted barracks. The college is next to Boca Raton Airport, where the corporate jets of the rich and well-connected plant rubber on its single runway.

Unlike the University of Florida and Florida State University, Florida Atlantic University, known as FAU, lacks the sense of history other college have. Indeed, FAU was often derided as a "commuter college," where that breed known as "commuter students" drove on campus before or after their full-time jobs, took courses, maybe even graduated, and moved on in their lives and careers. Even when I was there, in the early to mid-1990s, the "traditional-age" students were chafing at the presence of so many "older" (read: mid-20s and up) students on campus and in classrooms.

"These are supposed to be the best years of my life, and I don't want to spend them surrounded by old people," one student complained to me one day during a debate over the presence of the Lifelong Learning Society in the Student Center. Retired folks from the community came on the campus for lectures by professors, and some students resented what they saw as the intrusion.

"They don't belong here!" one student declared. "They should go back to Century Village, where they belong, instead of ruining my life."

Maybe it was the reminder of their inevitable fate. Me, I liked having diversity on campus in terms of age, and the professors liked it, too.

One professor said he liked that the students from my generation showed up at class on time, ready to learn and eager to participate. When he talked, we stopped talking while a few of the just-out-of-high school students continued a low murmur of conversation in the lecture hall.

Like I said, FAU was not famous, and it was not an old college compared to many others. Its first buildings opened in 1964, and one of those at the opening was Lady Bird Johnson. One time, going through an old desk, I found a letter from her to a school official. That was a thrill.

In fact, walking around FAU you could tell which buildings were the original ones because they were paneled on the outside with shells embedded in concrete. Those old buildings, though, were falling apart by the mid- to late-1990s due to poor maintenance. People like to give money to colleges for new buildings, not to maintain old buildings.

Years of outsourcing of maintenance showed in buildings that leaked in the rain.

Still, I learned much in my time there. I had to drive 20 miles out of my way, but managed to finish the two-year bachelor's degree course in three years, then stayed for a little graduate study, but then decided I really needed to work.

FAU's symbol was the Owl, and while it lacked the cachet of the Gators or the Seminoles, I always believed that it symbolized something beyond cheering a football team or drinking oneself into insensibility and calling it a college memory. Owls are wise, and the commuter students of FAU may not have pledged Greek fraternities or burned down the administration building to protest some offense against a race or creed, but we went out into the community with our degrees and had an impact.

I suppose it's the difference in experiences. Students just out of high school are just being let out from their parents' supervision, and are dealing with freedom for the first time, while commuter students are beyond that first experience of freedom. For the commuter, college is a way to find oneself and find one's way, but not through drinking and group activities but through learning.

My fellow commuter students and I found ourselves viewed differently by not only the younger students, but also the administration. Our presence seemed to be a sign that this was not a typical university and some found that degrading to their college experience.

I discovered so much at FAU and always feel grateful to the college and its professors for helping me to learn; the skills I acquired there, the people I met, the experiences I had have been relevant to me every day of my life.

Going to college in my late 20s and early 30s helped me appreciate the privilege more. Not bankrupting myself or my parents to get that education was a bonus that has repaid itself many times over.

So when someone derides your education because it was not from a "name" college, just remember that your learning and erudition are what counts, not the label.

Register now for the library’s free five-part reading and discussion series: “Let’s Talk about It: Jewish Literature – Identity and Imagination,” sponsored by a grant from Nextbook and the American Library Association. We will explore Jewish literature and culture through scholar-led discussions of contemporary and classic books on the theme: “Your Heart’s Desire: Sex and Love in Jewish Literature.”  In these works of modern fiction, love and desire cross paths – in the math department, on the analyst’s couch, in an Israeli garage – often with surprising results:  an arranged marriage heats up, a ménage à trois turns cozy!

Please join us for stimulating discussions with the leadership of distinguished Florida Atlantic University Professor Dr. Marianne Sanua, winner of FAU Researcher of the Year Award and the Sidney and Hadassah Musher Publication Prize awarded by the National Foundation for Jewish Culture.

The first program will explore Portnoy’s Complaint by Philip Roth on Sunday, October 19, 2008 from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m.  Additional books will be discussed each month:

Información difundida por la Profesora Beatriz Hernández S., Coordinadora de Postgrado del IDEC

The real story this weekend is the upset of the Alabama Clemson game. Internet, I don’t know how this happened. Ispent the majority of my Friday night talking crap to Alabama fans only to see what was an embarrassing performance by the Tigers. Incredibly embarrassing. Internet, I wont lie, I feel a bit stupid. I ranked the Clemson running back tandem of James Davis and C.J. Spiller as the best in the country (oh geez) and they had a total of 20 yards (and please dont get me started on why they only had a combined 8 carries) The rest of the team was sluggish on both sides of the ball. Quarterback Cullen Harper and his offense went no where, and the #9 Clemson Tigers just fell apart. Internet, I guess we just have to give this one to Alabama fans. Congratulations Tide fans, roll on. I guess you could be excited. Nick Saban looks like he pulled in an excellent recruiting class. But the same Nick Saban question applies. Can he finish? does he ever finish anything? I would answer no. (check the Miami Dolphins)

Highfive to: C.J. Spiller who took the opening kickoff of the second half to the house.

Virginia Tech lost its season opener to Eastern Carolina University by a blocked field goal returned for a touchdown. You have to love that Irony Internet. (Final Score: 22-27)

 Pitt came out against Bowling Green on fire in the first quarter, but Bowling Green doused the flame by shutting down star Tailback Lesean Mccoy in the second and left Heinz field with a W. (Final Score: 27-17)

Ohio State rolled over Jim Tressels Alma mater Youngstown State, but it was a painful opener for the Buckeyes as well when Heisman hopeful Beanie Wells went down with an injury (Final Score: 43-0)

The Trojans made the Virginia Cavaliers look like a Pee Wee football team. Their defense clearly as good as predicted and the depth of their running backs is sickening. (Final Score: 52-7)

Mizzou's Chase Daniels played a pretty good game, but Jeremy Maclin's two returns won Missouri the game. Oh, by the way, jury's out on this one, Juice Willaims can play some football. (Final Score: 52-42)

The Gators looked pretty solid in their home opener against Hawaii, who just couldn't get anything done without golden boy Colt Brennan (Final Score: 56-10)

Matt Groethe, George Selvie and the rest of the Bulls crushed Middle-Tennessee, whose only touchdown came from a fumble by freshman QB B.J. Daniels (Final Score: 56-7)

Appalachian State shocked the college football world last season with a win against #5 Michigan. Louisiana State made sure that history would not repeat itself and crushed the Mountaineers even without a qualified quarterback. (Final Score: 43-10)

The University Of Utah brought down the Big House, and for the second straight time Michigan has lost its home opener. The Rich Rodriguez era has started as sour in Ann Arbor as it ended in Morgantown. (Final Score:25-23

Stanford Head Coach Jim Harbaugh and the Cardinals defeated the Oregon State Beavers making football the most exciting thing to happen on campus since they added the  Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (Final Score: 36-28)

Texas looked great while routing FAU. Colt McCoy was the games leading rusher and the Longhorns didn't commit a single turnover. Ready for the Red River Shoot our Longhorn fans?(Final Score: 52-10)

West Virginia fans have learned that new head coach Bill Stewart is a man of his word. He said QB Pat White is going to throw the ball more this season. Opponent Villanova watched all five of Pat Whites touchdown passes sail over their heads. (Final Score: 48-21)

The Sooners took out some of that post-season failure on Chattanooga. Now if only the Sooners could pull together for, i don't know, a bowl game victory? (Final Score: 57-2)

All the Analyst's who said Oregon's defense was a cause for concern were right. They are a cause for concern for the other team though. Washington's Jake Locker learned first hand. (Final Score: 44-10)

JoePa and the Nittany Lions gave Coastal Carolina some hands on experience on why you should respect your elders. (Final Score 66-10)

Ao passear pelas ruas de sua cidade no que você presta atenção? Nos carros, nas pessoas, nos out-doors, nas ruas, nas construções? Se você repara na organização do espaço uma carreira interessante pode ser arquitetura. E isto vale não apenas para o espaço, mas também para as paisagens rurais.
A arquitetura simboliza a cultura de um povo, que através de suas construções, mostra o que era valorizado ou não em sua época: os grandes palácios gregos (“habitat” dos deuses); as grandes catedrais católicas; as grandes mesquitas. Você já parou para pensar porque a cobertura é o apartamento mais caro de um prédio? Será que isso é à toa?
A organização do espaço e como os elementos que compõem os lugares (tanto interiores, quanto exteriores) se relacionam para formar o todo constituem o campo de estudo da arquitetura, que visa o planejamento e a intervenção nos espaços. O arquiteto pode projetar um prédio, um salão em um edifício, uma área da cidade ou do campo, ou até mesmo uma cidade, como foi o caso de Brasília, nossa capital; pode verificar o impacto ambiental que uma construção, por exemplo um conjunto habitacional, pode gerar; ajuda a elaborar soluções para os problemas do dia-a-dia de grandes espaços urbanos, entre outras atribuições.
Tem uma visão mais abrangente e generalista, é um profissional que transita da técnica à arte, sendo esta a principal característica da profissão, que requer sensibilidade e domínio técnico. Pensa em tudo em uma construção, por exemplo, no conforto, na praticidade, na temperatura, na localização, no tamanho das divisões dessa construção (sala, cozinha, etc.), no lugar que o sol iluminará a casa em cada época do ano. O arquiteto deve ser versátil para lidar com assuntos técnicos e artísticos e integrar as duas coisas.

•    Áreas de atuação e mercado de trabalho

Basicamente o arquiteto poderá trabalhar em escritórios na realização de projetos contratados; em instituições públicas e em empresas.
Além dos projetos de construção e de planejamento e intervenção em ambientes (urbanos e rurais), o arquiteto pode trabalhar interiores de espaços; pode conceber sua iluminação; pode desenvolver técnicas de construção e restauração através de pesquisa.
Uma área em alta é de restauração e recuperação de construções e espaços, tanto no sentido de preservação, como de conservação das características originais.
Segundo o Ministério do Trabalho, o salário base de um arquiteto não pode ser inferior a 6 vezes o valor do salário mínimo federal vigente.

•    Curso

É um curso que integra as ciências humanas às ciências exatas, pois requer conhecimentos de disciplinas como cálculo e física, mas também de história, artes, antropologia.
Tem muitas disciplinas práticas nas quais são desenvolvidos projetos, entre eles, a exploração do espaço construído de uma casa, de uma cidade, de um parque, bem como o planejamento territorial urbano. Dura em média 5 anos.
Por ser um curso que transita entre a arte e a técnica, algumas faculdades e universidades acabam dando ênfase a um lado ou outro, portanto pesquise antes de escolher por este ou aquele curso.
O curso costuma ter um exame de aptidão que pressupõe Habilidade para desenhar. Na FUVEST, por exemplo, foi pedido um desenho de observação, um desenho geométrico, um desenho de memória e um desenho de criação.

•    Dicas: Habilidades e Interesses

•    É importante o Interesse tanto pela parte técnica, como pela parte artística, em algum nível; não procure um curso de arquitetura somente com o Interesse em uma das coisas, pois você irá usar ambas ao longo da carreira.
•    Habilidade de desenhar (desenhos de todos os tipos).
•    Ter uma boa percepção espacial, ou seja, imaginar uma casa de todos os ângulos e perspectivas (bom conhecimento de geometria).
•    Um bom conhecimento de informática, pois atualmente os projetos são realizados, a sua maioria, em um “software” chamado auto-cad.

•    Dica 1: Qual é a diferença entre arquitetura e engenharia civil? A engenharia é uma profissão mais exata e técnica, que vai se preocupar com os aspectos estruturais de uma construção, sem se preocupar necessariamente com o todo do ambiente, função mais específica do arquiteto. Se você está com dúvidas, pense no que lhe interessa numa construção, por exemplo: na localização da janela ou no material utilizado nessa janela? Você quer idealizar o projeto da construção ou ser responsável pela sua realização? Pense nisso.
•    Dica 2: E se eu não tiver todas as Habilidades acima descritas, não devo escolher arquitetura? Não se desespere, você pode desenvolver essas Habilidades, mas seria interessante começar logo, antes de ingressar no curso. Que tal um curso de desenho?
•    Dica 3: Procure escolher um curso que se aproxime mais dos seus Interesses, há cursos de Arquitetura que valorizam a parte artística, outros a parte técnica, leve isto em consideração para escolher a escola onde quer estudar.

•    Profissões afins

Esses são os profissionais com quem você provavelmente irá trabalhar:

•    Engenheiro;
•    Profissionais da construção civil;
•    Designers;
•    Decoradores.

By "...Biden had a family gathering at his home Thursday afternoon, with his wife Jill, niece Missy Owens and son Beau, Delaware's attorney general, coming and going past reporters staked outside. Biden ran errands, including a visit to the dentist, but didn't speak to the media as he came and went..."

And I'll throw this one in there too:

From the New York Times Op-Ed Page
David Brooks, Op-Ed Columnist

"Barack Obama has decided upon a vice-presidential running mate. And while I don’t know who it is as I write, for the good of the country, I hope he picked Joe Biden."

This is really worth reading! It lists very good reasons why Biden is the best VP choice for Obama.

P.S., today I went to the Obama for President rally at Florida Atlantic University featuring Sen. Hillary Clinton. Pictures will be posted as soon as I can get them off my camera (which will probably be Monday night). If I learned anything, it's that there are still plenty of people (i.e. PUMA) trying to make sure that there isn't party unity unless HRC is the presidential candidate...

Gonna need that to stop right now, people... mmkay?

Hello Internet, Its that beautiful time of year again. A time where girlfriends are neglected, hot dogs and beer are purchased in bulk quantities, and only one thing matters; football. And with kickoff in the sunshine state right around the corner i thought i would release my own style of the AP poll. So here you are you crazed, body painted sports fanatics, Tgemayel's AP Poll

Florida AP poll

1 The undisputed leader this year is The University Of Florida. Even with the loss of star tight end Cornelius Ingram, The Gators return Heisman winner Tim Tebow, speedster Percy Harvin, running back Chris Raineyand pulled in another star studded recruiting class. However look for a weak defensive secondary and an unproven recievers group to hinder the Gators run at a national title. Look for them to finish 6th in the AP poll and make a BCS bowl game.

2 Claiming the silver in the sunshine state is the University Of South Florida. The bulls are returning all of their major offensive players, including their star quarterback Matt Groethe and running back Mike Ford.Theyre defensive front looks to be stellar, returning USF's first All-American, defensive end George Selvie.Theyre defensive secondary looks to be the weakness of the team with the losses of Mike Jenkins and TraeWillaims, who left for the NFL. Look for the Bulls to finish 17th in the AP Poll and make a bowl game.

3 Coming in third place is The University Of Miami. The Canes have fallen out of prominence since leaving the Big East but coach Randy Shannon seems to restoring them to their once glorious state. Coach Shannon has recruited one of the best classes, if not the best, in the nation. Quarterbacks Robert Marve, Jacory Harris, and Cannon Smith will all be fighting to give the Canes their first stable quarterback since Ken Dorsey. If a stable quarterback can be found, the Canes maybe able to pull away with an 8 win season. Look for Graig Cooper and Javarris James to carry the majority of the offensive workload. On defense look for Miami Northwestern standouts Marcus Forston and Sean Space to displays bright spots of the brilliance to come.

4 Florida State University lost the close race for third place. The Seminoles also pulled an in excellent recruiting class as well, but have had trouble keeping key prospects out of trouble ( google Fred Rouse, Randy Moss, Preston Parker ). Seminoles fans should go into this season looking for two things. The first being is E.J. Manuel capable of leading this once power house program back to a national contender? The second is who is going to die first? Bobby Bowden or Joepa? Because it seems they are going to fight it out till the death. Look for the Seminoles to post an 8 win season, but lose to the Canes in Miami.

5 Last on my list is Florida Atlantic University. In 2007, FAU posted its best season in school history, winning It's first ever conference title and finishing its season with its first ever bowl victory. While the owls are a relatively new program ( just ten years old ) it is only a matter of time before they develop into a great program. With the excellent talent pool and great coaching staff, look for FAU to repeat its success of last season.

I must admit Fumika Okano sensei drew a very beautiful manga, but the plot is kinda scrambled. There are some scenes that are just not appropriate, plus the inefficiency of dialogue. I can't enjoy this manga.

La Carlota debe dedicarse a ser un parque o espacio público... Grupo en Facebook

Nun wurde Samstagsarbeit eingeführt.  Zur Abdeckung des 6. Arbeitstages gibt es bislang keine Neueinstellungen oder Wochenendzuschläge. Vielmehr wird die Personaldecke an den einzelnen Tagen verkleinert, so dass z. B. an der Kasse fortan 4 Leute stehen, anstatt wie bisher 5. Der Arbeitsdruck, der zu Stoßzeiten schon erheblich ist, wird sich somit weiter steigern.

Am vergangenen Samstag fand ein gewerkschaftlicher Aktionstag vor mehreren Filialen der Künstlerbedarfkette Boesner statt. In Berlin wurde eine Kundgebung vor der Filiale in Berlin-Prenzlauer Berg von der FAU Berlin in Zusammenarbeit mit der IWW organisiert.

Am Samstag dem 7. Juni 2008 fanden zwichen 10 und 13 Uhr Protestaktionen von den Filalen der Künstlebedarfskette boesner in Köln, Frankfurt am Main, Berlin, Wien und Graz statt. Es ging um die Verhinderung einer Betriebsratswahl im Januar 2008 in Köln und die Einführung der
Samstagsarbeit am 7. Juni 2008 in der Kölner Filiale. Zwischen beiden Ereignissen besteht ein direkter Zusammenhang.

Es wurden Flugblätter an die Kundschaft verteilt, Redebeiträge gehalten, lautstark und sichtbar auf die Behinderung und Einschüchterung aktiver und kritischer ArbeiterInnen durch die Geschäftsleitung bei Boesner Köln hingewiesen. Nicht wenige Kundinnen und Kunden fühlten sich angesprochen
und solidarisierten sich mit den Protestierenden.

Aufgerufen hatten die Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) im deutschsprachigen Raum. Die IWW ist in der Kölner Filiale durch Mitglieder vertreten und hat die versuchte Betriebsratsgründung in Köln in
Zusammenarbeit mit der Belegschaft begleitet.

An diesen ersten Protesten nahmen Mitglieder der Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), der Freien ArbeiterInnen-Union (FAU) und der österreichischen Föderation der ArbeiterInnen-Syndikate (FAS) sowie aktive Mitglieder anderer Gewerkschaften teil.

Boesner-Holding: Expansion nach amerikanischem Vorbild

Die Boesner-Kette hat in Deutschland momentan ca. 24 Filialen. Nach unseren bisherigen Informationen gibt es lediglich in der Filiale Witten einen Betriebsrat. Warum ist das so? Über eine Holding versucht Boesner sein Business offenbar nach amerikanischen Vorbildern umzugestalten und weiter zu expandieren. So stoßen Pläne in der Belegschaft auf Ablehnung, nach dem Vorbild von Hamburger-Ketten und Baumärkten eine einheitliche Berufskleidung einzuführen, die aus selbstbewussten und individuell
gekleideten Angestellten zum Verwechseln ähnliche durchgestylte Service-Sklaven machen soll. Betriebsräte sind vermutlich unerwünscht, weil sie die ungehemmte Expansion und beliebige Umgestaltung der Boesner-Kette bremsen könnten.

Die Forderungen sind

• Samstagsarbeit in Köln nur mit zusätzlichem Personal und Wochenendzuschlag oder gar nicht!
• Anerkennung des Rechts auf eine unabhängige betriebliche Interessenvertretung und gewerkschaftliche Organisierung!

Hinweis: Die IWW Köln ist daran interessiert, Kontakt zu Beschäftigten aus
anderen boesner-Filialen zu bekommen.

Ritual der Einschüchterung

Hintergründe, Verlauf und Folgen der studentischen Bücherverbrennung vom 10. Mai 1933

Von Leonore Krenzlin

Im Frühjahr 1933 trugen Studenten in etwa dreißig Universitätsstädten Deutschlands Bücher aus Buchläden und Privatbeständen, aus öffentlichen Volksbibliotheken und kommerziell geführten Leihbüchereien zusammen – und verbrannten sie am 10. Mai auf Scheiterhaufen. Der Vorfall erregte internationales Aufsehen – die Empörung über diese Kulturbarbarei Nazideutschlands war in der ausländischen Presse groß.

el que esta encerrado en el circulo rojo es mi facultad, la Facultad de Arquitectura y Urbanismo (FAU)

Oh, Pat Riley.

We left and went out.

Saturday we drove to Boca Raton to see FAU's scrimmage game and watch Coach Schnellenberger do his thing.

Ha. Billy and I saw FAU play the Gators in Gainesville in November.

FAU sucks.

...but Schnellenberger is the man.

Billy and I decided to take Karl to the Waffle House, an American institution.

Pigs.

I got a salad. Yeah, Waffle House has salads. I wouldn't recommend them.

Always has me by the balls.

Saturday night, we went to Fox's with Kei. She was sleepy. Or roofied.

Billy, Karl, and I went to a karaoke dive bar.

They were both surprisingly good. After, we went to Bella Rose. It was 2 am or so.

When we left at 4 am, I recall being a bit heartbroken that Karl and I wouldn't be able to go to Secrets, the ghetto strip club in North Miami, because it was too late. But then I remembered that last call in the Mi-yayo is 5 am!

(Karl and Billy talked me out of going.)

You see some interesting shit on I-95 in the middle of the night:

Mmm.

Sunday, Karl had to catch a flight back to Jamaica. We drove around, narrowly escaped a sick crash on I-95, and spent too long in CVS so Karl could look for useless crap to buy and take back to Jamaica.

Overtown:

This guy climbed the pole...

...to talk to some bitch in the window.

Sunday night, Billy and I went to dinner with Dave and Stephanie.

We had a drink at this sweet pub afterwards.
