I request that you do not send pdf files that I have to copy and reformat. I prefer you provide your very brief job description in an email rather than an enclosure.

Ned, I don’t know if you remember or were still in touch with Bob Simanski, but he died last week, and I thought long-time IABC/DCers would want to know.
He was owner of Business Pro Services and an active member of IABC/DC for many years in the 1980s and ’90s. A memorial service will be held after the holidays.

We’re especially interested in hearing from those of you who have found a job (or two, or three); found a candidate (or two, or three); made an important connection; or regained some sanity or dignity. We have set up a webpage—appropriately called “JOTW Connect!” at www.nedsjotw.com where you can go to post comments. You will be required to register, but hey, no biggie, right?
http://www.nedsjotw.com/connect/
Thanks to Woody Goulart for setting up the JOTW Connect! Page.
There has been a suggestion that we offer a prize or prizes to the most interesting comments. So, if you have a prize you want to offer, let Ned know at lundquist989@cs.com.
We’re due for an updated JOTW survey, and in the past we’ve offered prizes for people who participated in the survey (selected at random). So you may wish to offer a prize or two for the survey, too.

36.) Web Video – Writing/Research Internship SPRING 2014, Onion Inc., Chicago, IL
Onion Inc. is an American multimedia news organization. It features satirical articles and reporting on international, national, and local news as well as an entertainment newspaper and website known as A.V. Club.
The Onion’s articles comment on current events, both real and imagined. It parodies traditional newspaper and media features, such as editorials, man-on-the-street interviews, and stock quotes, as well as traditional newspaper layout and AP-style editorial voice. Much of its humor depends on presenting everyday events as newsworthy items, and by playing on commonly used phrases, as in the headline, “Drugs Win Drug War”.
In addition, a second part of the newspaper is a non-satirical entertainment section called A.V. Club. A.V. Club features interviews and reviews of various newly released media, and other weekly features. The print edition also contains restaurant reviews and previews of upcoming live entertainment specific to cities where a print edition is published. The online incarnation of The A.V. Club has its own domain, includes its own regular features, A.V. Club blogs, reader forums/comments, and presents itself as a separate entity from The Onion itself.
