They are looking for someone that meets the basic knowledge and skill sets required for the position and all or some of the following attributes: • Reliable – will show up to work every day and meet deadlines without fail. • A fast learner – You will be trained in the technology, techniques, and processes of the company. Do you catch on quickly? Can you master the material quickly with little remedial assistance? • Follow instructions – Can you be given instructions once and then pursue the task? Can you work with little direct supervision? • Analytical – Every task at work is a problem to be solved. Are you an analytical problem solver? Do you have an intuitive sense of where to find information to address a question? Do you have the research skills and creativity to find information quickly? • Communication – Are you able to explain yourself clearly; help others reach “the point” of a conversation quickly; avoid conflicts through clear communications? • Clear and clean writing – Can you write without typos, misspellings, and poor grammar? Your supervisor is not your proof-reader. Are you able to send memos, write reports, and emails that reflect sophistication that shine well on your employer? 5 Top Ten Things Employers Look for in New College Graduates (from AACU post at http://www.aacu.org/leap/students/employerstopten.cfm ) While you may think that choosing the “right” major is key to getting a good job, your long- term professional success will depend far more on acquiring the right skills for a rapidly changing workplace. 1. The ability to work well in teams—especially with people different from yourself 2. An understanding of science and technology and how these subjects are used in real-world settings 3. The ability to write and speak well 4. The ability to think clearly about complex problems 5. The ability to analyze a problem to develop workable solutions 6. An understanding of global context in which work is now done 7. The ability to be creative and innovative in solving problems 8. The ability to apply knowledge and skills in new settings 9. The ability to understand numbers and statistics 10. A strong sense of ethics and integrity Source: "How Should Colleges Prepare Students to Succeed in Today's Global Economy?" (Results of a national poll by Peter D. Hart Research Associates, 2007). 6 Top Ten Things Employers Look for in New College Graduates (from http://www.kavaliro.com/top-10-skills-employers-are-looking) 1. Communications Skills (listening, verbal, written). Being a clear, concise and effective communicator is critical in the workplace. This skill is evaluated based upon your initial interaction with the hiring manager. Think of this as your “first impression” skill. Having the ability to listen, write, speak effectively and facilitate communication is absolutely critical in whatever profession you are engaged in. 2. Analytical & Research Skills. Every potential employer is seeking employees who exemplify improvement. No work environment is perfect, so this is an ongoing opportunity to showcase your skill. Your ability to assess a situation, identify potential solutions and then execute accordingly is critical in the workplace. This skill is heightened if you are able to view the situation from all perspectives. 3. Self Motivation. Be proactive! Put forward your ideas and solutions. Every employer seeks a candidate who is reliable, takes initiative and works hard – so be ready to take action at any time. Showcase your work ethic. Demonstrate that you can work without supervision and fulfill your commitments. 4. Teamwork. Work confidently within a group and let your voice be heard. Maintain effective communication and a cohesive bond between your coworkers. Because so many opportunities involve working in a group setting, you must have the ability to work well with others. 5. Technical Skills. These are what you need to actually perform your work. In today’s world, most jobs require an understanding of computer hardware and software; including e-mail, word processing and spreadsheets. This skill set can translate across the job board, but varies depending on the job. 6. Strength of Character. It is important to maintain your self-identity in the workplace. You need to stand up for yourself, defend your ideas and opinions and stand by what you believe in. Employers want leaders who can set an example to the rest of the employees. 7. Interpersonal Skills. These skills are a way for employers to see how you relate to other people within your team as well as people outside of the organization. This can be measured by how you handle yourself in stressful situations, how you treat people and what your level of emotional intelligence is. It is crucial that you possess the ability to relate to your coworkers, inspire others and minimize conflict. 8. Flexibility/Adaptability. You must manage multiple assignments and tasks while setting priorities and adapting to changing conditions. Employers desire a strong but flexible team player who thrives in an environment where they are asked to effectively prioritize and juggling multiple tasks. 9. Planning/Organizing. This deals with your ability to effectively plan, organize, and execute within an allotted timeframe. It also involves goal-setting. Employers seek a results-driven achiever with a strong sense of detail orientation and time management. 10. Problem Solving Skills. Employers value an employee they can trust and do not have to micromanage constantly. Analyze the problem and examine the underlying causes before coming up with a solution and the means to achieving it. 7 Becoming a competitive job applicant Good Grades – 3.0 and higher indicate standardized Studies abroad, multiple languages, and intellectual capacity, but also travel that reflect global experience and ability to comply with rules transferability of cross-cultural and expectations. communications. Internships during college that build a strong image of you as reliable, energetic, and capable. Technical skills – courses, workshops, or certifications Extra-curricular activities that demonstrate early demonstrate leadership, development of technical initiative, and social skills. traits. 8 Job Applications Require … Different employers require different forms of documentation, so this is a general list. Start NOW developing the content and connections for these items. Cover letter – a letter that states your interest and qualifications for a position that speaks directly to that position and company. Resume – a resume that clearly lists your qualifications and attributes that qualify you as the “best person” for the job. Resume should be sculpted for the position for which you are applying.

These estimates were used to calculate a nondimensional number that represents the proportion, or percentage, of predicted larval fish in the EEZ that were potentially exposed to oil from the Deepwater Horizon incident. The proportion exposed is a function of the 'production schedule' of the population, the location and timing of that productivity, and the spatio-temporal distribution of surface oil. Introduction The Deepwater Horizon Incident remains the largest oil spill in a marine environment in United States history. Vast quantities of oil and other contaminants were discharged into the northern Gulf of Mexico from late April to mid-July in 2010.

(August 2012) Evleen Michelle Nasir, B.A., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Kirsten Pullen There is a discursive formation of incapability that surrounds senior women’s sexuality. Senior women are incapable of reproduction, mastering their bodies, or arousing sexual desire in themselves or others. The senior actresses’ I explore in the case studies below insert their performances of self and their everyday lives into the large and complicated discourse of sex, producing a counter-narrative to sexually inactive senior women. Their performances actively embody their sexuality outside the frame of a character. This thesis examines how senior actresses’ performances of sexuality extend a discourse of sexuality imposed on older woman by mass media. These women are the public face of senior women’s sexual agency.

LONG SUMMARY Molly Shannon plays Emily Dickinson in the dramatic comedy "​ Wild Nights with Emily​." The poet’s persona, popularized since her death, became that of a reclusive spinster – a delicate wallflower, too sensitive for this world. This film explores her vivacious, irreverent side that was covered up for years — most notably Emily’s lifelong romantic relationship with another woman (Susan Ziegler). After Emily died, a rivalry emerged when her brother's mistress (Amy Seimetz) along with editor T.W.

  • The Musical Number and the Sitcom
    ECHO: a music-centered journal www.echo.ucla.edu Volume 5 Issue 1 (Spring 2003) It May Look Like a Living Room…: The Musical Number and the Sitcom By Robin Stilwell Georgetown University 1. They are images firmly established in the common television consciousness of most Americans: Lucy and Ethel stuffing chocolates in their mouths and clothing as they fall hopelessly behind at a confectionary conveyor belt, a sunburned Lucy trying to model a tweed suit, Lucy getting soused on Vitameatavegemin on live television—classic slapstick moments. But what was I Love Lucy about? It was about Lucy trying to “get in the show,” meaning her husband’s nightclub act in the first instance, and, in a pinch, anything else even remotely resembling show business. In The Dick Van Dyke Show, Rob Petrie is also in show business, and though his wife, Laura, shows no real desire to “get in the show,” Mary Tyler Moore is given ample opportunity to display her not-insignificant talent for singing and dancing—as are the other cast members—usually in the Petries’ living room. The idealized family home is transformed into, or rather revealed to be, a space of display and performance. 2. These shows, two of the most enduring situation comedies (“sitcoms”) in American television history, feature musical numbers in many episodes. The musical number in television situation comedy is a perhaps surprisingly prevalent phenomenon. In her introduction to genre studies, Jane Feuer uses the example of Indians in Westerns as the sort of surface element that might belong to a genre, even though not every example of the genre might exhibit that element: not every Western has Indians, but Indians are still paradigmatic of the genre (Feuer, “Genre Study” 139).

  • Expert Panelists Consider Community Development's Next Wave Intro
    Expert Panelists Consider Community Development’s Next Wave Intro In spring of 2015, LISC NYC’s Executive Director, Sam Marks invited friends of LISC - top economists, policy analysts, journalists, community development gurus and current leaders of some of the city’s top community development corporations - to join staff in strategizing around critical questions facing New York’s community development sector. What can LISC NYC and its community development partners do to counter global and national trends exacerbating economic polarization? What is community development’s role in shaping the city’s upcoming neighborhood rezonings, preserving affordable housing, and, building human capital? How can the industry scale up even as it consolidates and redeploys resources to new areas and programming? Over the course of three panel discussions moderated by Marks, presenters and LISC NYC staff shed some light on next wave strategies for New York City’s neighborhoods. Panel 1: Global City/Global Trends: Panelists explained the global trends driving high real estate prices, economic polarization, gentrification and displacement and debated about the levers available to city government, LISC NYC and community developers to alleviate the harsh impacts on low and moderate income New Yorkers.

  • Community Rebranding: a Case Study
    COMMUNITY REBRANDING: A CASE STUDY A Project Presented to the Faculty of California State Polytechnic University, Pomona In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science In Hospitality Management By Michelle L. Pecheck Spring 2015 SIGNATURE PAGE PROJECT: COMMUNITY REBRANDING: A CASE STUDY AUTHOR: Michelle L. Pecheck DATE SUBMITTED: Spring 2015 The Collins College of Hospitality Management Dr. Ed Merritt _________________________________________ Project Committee Chair Associate Professor Dr. Margie Jones _________________________________________ Associate Professor Dr. Neha Singh _________________________________________ Director of Graduate Studies Associate Professor ii ABSTRACT Intro: This case study profiles Claremont, a city of approximately 37,000 residents. Since its formation in 1887, it has primarily been known as a college town with a history of citrus production. This case study investigates what components would need to be in place to rebrand or reposition the city as a unique, healthful destination. Case: A resident survey, interviews, and focus groups were used to gather qualitative data about residents’ perceptions of the city’s current brand and potential rebranding. Management & Outcome: Scope of work for the focus city included data gathering from residents, and identification of projects, services, and designations to support marketing of the city as a health/wellness destination. Discussion: Data from surveys, focus groups, and key informant interviews indicated that residents were uncertain of the City’s current brand, in general appeared to care little about the brand, and lacked information about the City’s interest in a possible future rebranding. Further, City documents revealed a history of departmental rebrandings that may have obscured the City’s current brand image.

  • Mercy Medical Center Community Health Needs Assessment, Two of the Community Statistical Areas Have Shifted
    Mercy Medical Center Community Health June 8 The Sisters of Mercy Needs Assessment & welcome all people of every Implementation 2016 creed, color, economic and Strategy social condition. Community health needs assessments (CHNA) and implementation strategies are required of tax- exempt hospitals as a result of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The CHNA and implementation strategies create an important opportunity to improve the health of communities by ensuring that hospitals have the information they need to provide community benefits that meet the needs of their communities. They also provide an opportunity to improve coordination of hospital community benefits with other efforts to improve community health. On December 31, 2014, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) published final rules implementing the “Additional Requirements for Charitable Hospitals” section of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The hospital facility must "conduct" a community health needs assessment ("CHNA") during the current taxable year or in either of the two taxable years immediately preceding such taxable year and an "authorized body of the hospital facility" must adopt an "implementation strategy" to meet the community health needs identified through the CHNA. Included in this document is Mercy Medical Center’s CHNA and Implementation Strategy as approved by the Mercy Health Services Mission & Corporate Ethics Committee on June 8, 2016.
