<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p>On-Campus Interviews offer students a chance to conveniently interview for professional positions on campus.  Employers travel to our campus for the specific purpose of interviewing preselected students for currently open positions.  This is a great opportunity to interview with employers specifically interested in UMBC students and offers the advantage of a smaller applicant pool.  Interviews take place during the fall and spring. The logistics (viewing positions, applying, signing up for interview time slots, etc.) are all handled via UMBCworks.<br><br>Don't miss out on employers coming to UMBC to recruit YOU this fall! The following is a list of employers coming to conduct on-campus interviews with application deadlines in the next month.<br><br><strong>** AOL/Advertising.com</strong><br>Interviewing on 12/5/12 (<strong>Deadline to apply via UMBCworks:  11/25/12)</strong><br>Position:  Automation QA Engineer, Associate Application Technical Support Engineer<br>Majors:    IS, CMSC,</p>

    <p>Please go to Blackboard's page on supported browsers. <a href="http://blackboard.force.com/btbb_SupportedTechPublicArticleView?Id=50170000000Wu4NAAS&amp;RecordType=01270000000Hip4AAC" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Click here.</a></p>

    <li>Disable any "pop-up blocker" software that you have installed on your computer. <a href="https://wiki.umbc.edu/x/xIAc" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">How to disable pop-up blockers on your Internet browser?</a>

    </li>
    <li>If you access from work or have a DSL connection and are running firewall software, you may experience difficulties. You will need to discuss this with your network security employees. They may or may not be able to allow access to the course, depending on their policies. DSL users will need to disable their firewall while using the chat tool (refer to the documentation in your firewall software for temporarily disabling the firewall).</li>
    <li>If you use a public computer lab or library, you need to exit the browser completely when you are finished. (That is, all windows must be closed and the programs closed or exited.) This clears your username/password. If you do not exit the browser completely, the next user will have access to your course account.</li>

<Title>Don&#8217;t piss off the New York Times</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[

    <img src="http://usdemocrazy.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/7990796317_d8218a0ac7-199x300.jpg" alt="" width="199" height="300" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto;"><p>By: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/scaredykat/7990796317/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Krista</a></p>
    </div>
    <p>What did Food Network’s Guy Fieri do to get on the bad side of the New York Times?</p>
    <p>Based on the 0 out of 4 stars his Times Square eatery received in a recent <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/14/dining/reviews/restaurant-review-guys-american-kitchen-bar-in-times-square.html?pagewanted=all&amp;_r=4&amp;" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">review</a>, perhaps he had earlier replaced food critic Pete Wells’ shampoo with a bottle of Nair.</p>
    <p>The scathing review can only be further described as painfully melodramatic yet strangely gratifying. It slams Guy’s American Kitchen &amp; Bar through 50 rhetorical questions about the food and service. Wells even goes so far as to ask the following:</p>
    <blockquote>
    <p>Is the entire restaurant a very expensive piece of conceptual art? Is the shapeless, structureless baked alaska that droops and slumps and collapses while you eat it, or don’t eat it, supposed to be a representation in sugar and eggs of the experience of going insane?</p>
    </blockquote>
    <p>The article has since gone <a href="http://eatocracy.cnn.com/2012/11/14/slam-review-of-guy-fieris-times-square-restaurant-goes-viral/?iref=allsearch" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">viral</a>, prompting some to applaud Wells’ brutal honesty and others to criticize his perceived elitism. In response to his own critics, Wells says</p>
    <blockquote>
    <p>If wanting nachos and fries that taste good and don’t make you want to avert your eyes makes you an elitist, then I guess I am.”</p>
    </blockquote>
    <p>Guess we’ll just have to wait and see if the review will deter restaurant-goers or simply make Fieri’s greasy grill house even more of a tourist attraction. In the meantime, you can go <a href="http://www.buzzfeed.com/emofly/10-most-scathing-new-york-times-restaurant-reviews?utm_campaign=socialflow&amp;utm_source=twitter&amp;utm_medium=buzzfeed" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">here</a> to check out the best of the worst reviews NYT has ever printed.</p>
