I just received an e-mail from Dad with a link to Bureau of Labor Statistics' Occupational Outlook Handbook and thought I would share it with you all.
It has a lot of good information for those of us who will be entering the job market in the very near future. For hundreds of different jobs - including communications and the media, the handbook tells of the training and education needed, earnings, expected job prospects, what workers do on the job and working conditions. It also gives job search tips and links to information about the job market in each State.
Take a look. Who knows, maybe you'll find out that the profession you were planning on isn't right for you. Or maybe you're aspirations will be reinforced.

Mayne Street
I'm sure some of you sports fans already know, but for those who don't, ESPN recently introduced a new, internet-only series called Mayne Street starring ESPN personality Kenny Mayne.
For those of you unfamiliar with Mayne, he is a histerically funny sportscaster for the world's most popular television sports outlet.
The show is somewhat similar to The Office in its style of humor.
Check out the latest episode of Mayne Street below:

Panama Day 5: An amazing experience
Well, we left the hotel around 1 p.m. this afternoon and I just walked into my house in Miami about two hours ago around 8 p.m.
Needless to say, I'm pretty tired, so I'm going to keep this short.
This trip truly was an amazing experience.
I don't think I really comprehended this until just now, but for the past five days, I worked as a real-life, professional journalist in a foreign country.
Not only did I get a chance to visit a place where I had never been and to make three great friends in my classmates Natalia, Alcione and Ligia, but I also got to do something that most student journalists (most professional journalists for that matter) will never get to do - work internationally.
I owe own many thanks to the University of Miami School of Communication and 1h20.org for giving me that opportunity.
