The Department of Veterans Affairs estimates that by the year 2023, there will be more than 3.5 million veterans in the civilian job market. This indicates a swell in workforce that requires attention.
As companies seek talent that brings values of loyalty, passion, resilience, and commitment, they often look to veterans. After all, the values of the military align with many corporate goals, such as being customer-centric; providing a consultative approach rather than transaction model; focusing on collaboration and teamwork; and staying true to high standards when engaging with others.
Many of the leading companies that hire and grow veteran talent point to the necessity of having support from the executive level. A veteran hiring initiative will require resources, commitment, time, and energy to be successful. With buy-in from the highest levels in the organization, you can conduct research, create unique programs, form alliances, and build visibility as a veteran friendly company. Without this support, many initiatives fall short of meeting objectives, or are phased out as interest and enthusiasm becomes hard to sustain.
The military is a values-driven culture. Service men and women are instilled with values of loyalty, service, duty, and honor, to name a few. When they transition, they seek a commitment to values in their employers. Veterans often tell me that they "look to work for a company that has a set of values I can ascribe to."The topic of values can serve as an opportunity for companies seeking to be veteran friendly. Make it clear what your values are, how you live and act upon those values, and how the veteran's job will promote and support those values. Even work that is less glamorous can be attractive to a veteran, if they understand the greater purpose.
Make it known to the veteran community that your company seeks to hire former military service members. Participate in job fairs and career events, bringing veteran employees with you. Create a unique landing page on your website highlighting your values, open positions that veterans can fill, and sharing resources you have for veteran employees. Don't overlook social media -- be sure your positioning on Monster.com, Facebook, and elsewhere highlights your commitment and passion for veteran employees. Showcase the veterans you have working for you and their successes.
Veterans often require unique onboarding programs to ensure they will successfully integrate into your company systems and culture. In addition, creating affinity groups for veterans can provide resources, information, and support for your veteran employees. Affinity groups model the military culture, which places high value on mentoring, leadership and support.
Finally, don't forget military spouses and families. During active duty, service men and women spend a lot of time away from their families. Civilian companies who successfully recruit and retain veterans often include the spouse and family at events and in the employee's experience at the company. This demonstrates sensitivity and appreciation for the family's commitment to service.

Cowboys vs. 49ers free live streams: How to watch 2023 NFL playoff … – Sporting News
Two of the most successful franchises in NFL history meet in the divisional round of the playoffs as the 49ers host the Cowboys on Sunday night.
The 49ers took care of business against the Seahawks last week, defeating their division rivals 41-23. Brock Purdy, Christian McCaffrey and Deebo Samuel were an unstoppable trio for Kyle Shanahan's offense. Purdy threw for 332 yards and three touchdowns, McCaffrey had 136 all-purpose yards and a receiving TD and Samuel added 133 yards through the air and a score.
Purdy continues to shine for San Francisco, winning his first NFL playoff game in dominant fashion. The last pick of the 2022 NFL Draft is undefeated in his NFL career after taking over the starting role for the injured Jimmy Garoppolo midway through the season.
The Cowboys finished up wild-card weekend by thumping Tom Brady and the Bucs 31-14. Dak Prescott had his best game of the year, throwing four touchdowns on 25-of-33 passing for 305 yards and no turnovers. Dalton Schultz led all Dallas receivers with seven catches for 95 yards and two touchdowns.
Dallas has not been to the NFC Championship since the team won it all in 1995. San Francisco is aiming to get back to the NFC Championship for the third time in the last four seasons. The 49ers lost to the eventual Super Bowl champion Rams last year in the conference final.

Sheridan is bounded on the north by Liberty, and on the east by Monroe township. On the south it joins the Caldwell county line, and on the west Colfax township. In area of territory it is a congressional township, and is designated as township fifty-eight north, of range twenty-eight west. It has twenty-one thousand seven hundred and thirty-seven and eighty-one one-hundredths acres of land, nearly one half of which is timber, and the remainder prairie. Sheridan township in the last ten years has advanced but a trifle in population, in fact losing, when the natural increase is considered.
The population in 1870 was 923, and only 967 in 1880, a gain of forty-four in ten years. This will hardly do to brag on. The trouble with both Sheridan and Monroe townships, is that there are too many non-resident land-holders, and this, in fact, affects the whole county, more or less. There has been but one valuation by townships since the organization, and that was in 1877, when the assessment of real estate was given at $144,282, and the personal property at $54,410, making a total valuation of $198,692.
With the natural increase of land tinder cultivation and of stock, by the present settlers, there has been nothing to give much greater valuation to the township since that year, and at this time can be safely estimated at $250,000. It is a well watered township for stock purposes, and there are some very fine springs. Marrowbone Creek and Dog Creek are the principal streams, the latter a branch of Honey Creek, as is also the former, and the branches of these creeks spread pretty well over the township. Certainly the opportunities for profitable investment in the lands and productive soil of Sheridan township are numerous enough and its citizens should wake up to the spirit of an immigration movement.
The north and west portions of the township are the most thickly settled parts, and there some of the finest and best improved farms in the county can be found. This township has no villages within its borders. The principal places of trade being Hamilton and Kidder on the southern border of the township, and Gallatin, the county seat.

Ehsan Jami's Movie Debuts in the Hague
Posted on December 8, 2008 by Baron Bodissey
I've written previously about the Dutch apostate Ehsan Jami and his movie, Interview With Mohammed, which debuts tomorrow in the Hague. We can expect a strong reaction from the usual suspects — in fact, just as with Fitna, the outrage has already begun.
Our Flemish correspondent VH has translated some recent material about upcoming planned event. First, from Spits Nieuws:
Jami presents Interview with Mo
This Tuesday in The Hague Ehsan Jami will present the English-language film "Interview with Mohammed." The creator has received a green light for the film's presentation. The fourteen-minute film will portray the Prophet himself realizing that he has made mistakes. To do this the maker interviews an actor who plays the role of Mohammed.
Jami does not find his production to be an anti-Islam movie. Major themes in the film, according to him, are women's rights and apostasy.
Extra security
The AIVD [Dutch Intelligence Service] and NCTb [he National Coordinator for Counterterrorism] were able to preview the film. Jami says that additional security measures will be taken during the premiere, but can not go into details.
The film, Interview with Mohammed, has already led to negative reactions according to the Moroccan newspaper Al-Jarida al-Ula. The newspaper reported last month that European Muslim organizations are calling for a boycott of Dutch products with the appearance of the film.
From Ex-Moslims:
Jami will show his Mohammed film this Tuesday in "Nieuwspoort"
Ex-Muslim Ehsan Jami found a venue after all in which to show his Islam-critical movie "Interview with Mohammed", after the cancellation of the TV program "Pauw & Witteman". International media will also attend the viewing, says Jami.
This Monday, a number of government officials will get to see a preview, as confirmed by Jami. They will then be able to assess the possible consequences for state security of the Mohammed movie.
But Jami did not want to disclose who these officials are. He stressed that he did not tell the AD [Algemeen Dagblad] who exactly will be present, as the newspaper reported today.
Jami will present his Mohammed film this Tuesday, in the Hague Nieuwspoort press center [next to the parliament building], as seems from a press release that he sent out today. "Nieuwspoort" was not willing to confirm the preview.
Jami previously announced that the film — in which a masked figure, Mohammed, is interviewed — would be shown this Wednesday, on Human Rights Day.
'Anxious'
Jami was in talks with various news shows, he told elsevier.nl. But they pulled out because they — according to Jami — where "afraid of the reaction." The TV programs had been given "signs". From whom, they did do not want to tell, says Jami.
Last week Jami reported that he will not be welcome on the news show "Pauw & Witteman," because Foreign Minister Maxime Verhagen (CDA, Foreign Affairs) will be there. The CDA minister was said to have vetoed Jami's presence.
A spokesman for Verhagen said that it is not the minister, but Pauw & Witteman, who invite their guests. According to the program talks were still continuing and the word "veto" had not yet been mentioned.
Pro-Human Rights
Jami tells Elsevier that the film will be shown next Tuesday to national and international media. At the end of the film Jami will answer questions about the film.
The film will also be posted on the Internet this Tuesday.
Jami wrote the script for the film, which as he says is no 'anti-Islam film', but a pro-human rights film.
And now for news about the movie from English-language sites. First, from Klein Verzet:
New Dutch movie: An interview with Mohammed
Upcoming Wednesday it will be international human rights day and it's also the day that the movie "an interview with Mohammed" will be presented to the world, reports Dutch news site spitsnews (NL). This latest Dutch movie production is made by Ehsan Jami, founder of the Dutch Committee for Ex-Muslims and is made in collaboration with international artists.
On Dutch state television Ehsan explained that the movie has three main themes: the suppression of woman, anti-Semitism and the rights of Islamic apostates.
The Dutch talk show, Pauw & Witteman, planned to show a few minutes of the movie on Dutch state TV, but foreign affairs minister Verhagen blocked it (apparently because he is also a guest in the same TV show). It stays unclear where and how the film will be shown.
Update (1): English language movie
Dutch Opinion magazine Elsevier just published more details about the movie (NL). They report that the 10 minute movie named: "an interview with Mohammed' is an English language production. In the movie Jami will interview the prophet Mohammed. The prophet is shown as a masked person (see picture) who will look back on his life 1400 years ago and tell the audience if he is satisfied. The magazine also asked Jami who played the role of Mohammed, but he did want to reveal the name because of security reasons.
The idea of Mohammed masks does seem to resemble the art work of the Dutch-Iranian immigrant Sooreh Hera. But the magazine does not name her name and neither does the mask seem to be an exact copy of her Mohammed masks as shown in her (censored) photo exhibitions. […]
And from Weasel Zippers :
European Islamic Groups Calling for Boycott of Dutch Goods Because of new Mohammed Movie
According to Moroccan newspaper Al-Jarida al-Ula, European Islamist organizations are calling for a boycott of Dutch products because of Ehsan Jami's movie. The movie will premier December 10th, Jami announced this week in an interview with weekly HP/De Tijd.
The unnamed organizations are upset that Jami is coming out with a cartoon move about Mohammed. The ex-Muslim originally planed that, but called it off at the end of March at the urging of justice minister Ernst Hirsch Ballin. The organizations are calling, according to the newspaper, for a boycott because of the publication of 'a cartoon movie about the wives of the prophet Muhammad." Already since last month there have been calls to boycott Dutch products circulating on the internet.
In the 10 minute long movie "Interview with Mohammed", the former chairperson of the Committee for Ex-Muslims questions Muhammed about women's rights, Jews and apostasy. In the clip the actor who plays Muhammed will be unrecognizable. The movie will be in English. Jami invited Hirsch Ballin to the movie's pre-premiere. The anti-Koran movie Fitna of PVV head Geert Wilders led in the past to protests in the Muslim world and several calls to a boycott of Dutch products. […]

One thought on "Ehsan Jami's Movie Debuts in the Hague"
Czechmade on December 9, 2008 at 4:10 am said:
They should call for boycott of Iranian products…
The discussion could be conducted more leisurely:
In the past some foreigners islamized Iranians. Now from eighties onwards the home "Iranian" islam effectively de-islamized Iranians. This is a fact. Islam in Iran was reduced to political position securing and business privileges…
Replace it with a normal job providing agency, more transparency and do not call it "islam".
Friends, be realistic and allow such movies to be made at home – in Iran. It could be a success in the local cinemas and provide necessary means for fostering growing Iranian film industry.

The expedition team
The who's who of the Flight of the Swans team – in the air and on the ground.
Sacha Dench, Expedition Leader
With four years paramotoring experience, eight years paragliding expertise, and a day job – as WWT's head of media – Flight of the Swans leader, Sacha, is at home in the skies. And she's no stranger to the oceans either. In fact Sacha's a British national free-diving champion – able to hold her breath for an astonishing 6 minutes and 22 seconds. Such endurance will be vital for success. That's why Sacha is pursuing a training regime so she hits peak fitness for the flight of her life later this year.
Peter Cranswick, Expedition Manager
Peter is in charge of all operational tasks, including logistics, finances, and health and safety. He will be supporting the ground crew when Sacha is in the air.
Brian Middleton, Team Mechanic and Engineer
Brian is in charge of keeping all team vehicles and machinery on the road - and in the sky. As an experienced pilot, he will also be checking all pilot protocols are being met.
Sue Keene, Chef de Cuisine
Although all team members will be given cooking duties, Sue will be in charge of the camp kitchen. She will also play a key part in welcoming the locals into the camp to share and cook their food with us.
Carolyn Gardner and Paolo Bellezze, Weather Forecasters
Using Met Office and other data Carolyn and Paolo will provide daily weather forecasts and advice to the expedition team. They will also be on hand to advise the HQ team on weather related issues that may affect the live broadcast part of the video diaries.
Elinor Young, Medic
As team medic, Elinor's job is to take control in case of any medical emergency, but also to look after the general health and wellbeing of the team. As ground crew leader she will be in charge of the team when Sacha is flying.
Alexander Bogdanov, Paramotorist
Alexander will be joining Sacha in the air as she makes her way over the Russian tundra. With years of experience flying over this terrain his knowledge of the area and his support in communicating with the locals they meet will be invaluable.
Rob Keene, Microlight Pilot
Rob is our backup plan. He will be flying with Sacha if she needs to catch up with the swans, he will also be in charge of search and rescue if Sacha's paramotor goes down in a remote area.
Jocky Sanderson, Thames crossing rescue
As a Thames crossing boat rescue expert, Jocky will be on hand for Sacha's record-breaking attempt to be the first woman to fly across the channel in a paramotor. Fingers crossed we won't need to call on his expertise.
Stuart Savage, Paramotorist and Flight Manager
Stuart will accompany Sacha in the air from Estonia back to the UK. He is in charge of planning the flight routes with paramotorists from all countries across the flyway once the team have left Russia.
Amber Eames - Senior Content Creator
As an experienced filmmaker and camera person Amber will be directing and producing the content and documentary for Flight of the Swans
As a cameraman and photographer, who also happens to be a paramtorist, Dan will be joining Sacha in the skies for the Russian leg of the journey. We're hoping to see some great footage of Sacha flying.
Ben Cherry
Ben will be using his skills as a wildlife photographer to capture the wildlife and conservation stories along the flyway. He will also be keeping us up to date with what's happening on the ground via social media updates.
Matt will be operating the drones for aerial filming. He will also be filming with the RED cinema cameras to produce cinema quality content for our live broadcasts and the documentary.
Steve Flanagan
Steve is a 360 video and timelapse photography specialist, so prepare to experience the natural world as you've never seen it before. He will also be responsible for our weekly broadcasts for schools.
Ben Sadd
As an experienced wildlife cameraman Ben will be contributing to all our media but will be responsible for making sure we are filming with a feature length documentary in mind. He will be filming with the RED cinema cameras.
Sam Vadas
Sam will act as production manager throughout the trip, helping to keep the media team on track. As the only journalist on the trip she will be looking out for stories and lining up interviews. She will be our main contact for journalists visiting or joining the expedition for short stretches.
WWT's pioneering conservation work continues, saving endangered wildlife and the wetlands they need to survive.

We hired this company to do a photo shoot this past weekend for my mother's 90th birthday. party. It was held at a prestigious golf club in Northern NJ. We had arranged this with them well in advance. We had our entire family, including children, grandchildren and guests from all over the country. The time, date and location was confirmed and set. A 50% deposit was paid.
THEY DID NOT SHOW UP! We were unable to reach them on the day of the event No one answered the business phone or called. Two days later, the owner's excuse was that he "meant to call to reschedule." This was an event. Like a wedding. Reschedule? Really? And not even the courtesy of a phone call? Unbelievable. Worse, no family member came prepared with a decent camera, since we had hired a "professional" photographer. It goes without saying that you only have a 90th birthday party once.

I was asked this by a friend. His company is trying to set up some sort of a network where all their branches around the world can connect. They want to know if there are any laws in my country associated with "Internet Breakout"
He is a lawyer at the said place and since he has no idea about technology, he asked me. I have no idea what on god's name he's talking about since I am not a networking guy.
I did try searching around google for what "Internet Breakout" is, but I have no idea how to explain this to my friend.
If anyone could give me a quick summary of what an internet breakout is in a company network, or point me to a resource that would explain it. I would be really appreciate it.
In many large networks that span nationally or globally, all traffic including Internet traffic, flows from remote sites to a central hub, such as a data center, where Internet traffic then leaves the organization via an ISP. The advantage of this is the organization can apply security policies, filter for malware, etc., from a single, central location.
In contrast, some organizations allow Internet traffic to leave the corporate network at the remote site, via a locally connected ISP. This is known as an "Internet breakout." The advantage of this is all the Internet traffic does not need to be carried to the central site, saving on bandwidth, and the local ISP may offer cheaper pricing than the central site. The downside is that Internet filtering and malware protection must be placed at the remote site's ISP connection as well.
I'll let someone else speak to the legal issues involving transnational Internet traffic.
In addition to Ron Trunk's answer, I might add that there are now SaaS-style solutions that put proxy/web filtering functionality in cloud nodes distributed worldwide. This allows you to have centrally-controlled security, but decentralized access which avoids backhauling Internet traffic across your MPLS.
So you would implement a cheap Internet link on each site, and use it to send traffic to the cloud node, where it is filtered (policy compliance, antimalware...) and passed on to the Internet. You send traffic either via a PAC file in the browser, via some sort of tunnel (GRE, IPSec) or a combination of both.
I've deployed this in some fairly exotic countries, with no major issues so far. We can show that we log everything if need be, and I haven't encountered any places where access to these cloud nodes is wholly blocked, except sometimes in China when the Great Firewall gets grumpy. Performance is sometimes problematic though, particularly in Latin America and Africa, but way better than the alternatives.

Home Private Equity News & Analysis Nordic, Accent acquire Swedish retail chain
Nordic, Accent acquire Swedish retail chain
The two Nordic private equity firms have bought fashion retailer KappAhl for SEK1.95bn from The Swedish Cooperative Union.
PEI Staff
Stockholm-headquartered private equity firms Nordic Capital and Accent Equity Partners have completed the acquisition of Swedish fashion retail chain KappAhl for SEK1.95 billion (€216 million; $275 million).
Alongside a substantial investment from the management team, Nordic has taken a 70 percent stake of the remaining equity, with Accent taking the 30 percent balance.
KappAhl employs 3,300 people in 240 stores across Sweden, Norway, Finland and Poland. In 2003, the firm reported revenues of SEK3.8 billion and operating profits of SEK120 million.
Commenting on the transaction, Nordic Capital partner Bo Söderberg said in a statement: "KappAhl has reversed a negative performance trend and demonstrated its ability to generate profits. We have financial resources and industrial know-how needed to evolve KappAhl's business going forward."
Nordic is currently investing its fifth buyout fund dedicated to the region, which closed in April 2003 on €1.5 billion.
The transaction is Accent's fourth deal since it closed its oversubscribed debut fund on €250 million in August this year. The firm has invested in Cefar, a Swedish electrotherapy specialist; Wernersson, a Swedish cheese wholesaler; and Jotul, a Norwegian stove and fireplace manufacturer.
According to partner Niklas Sloutski, the fund is now approximately 30 percent invested. "We've been very active since the final closing, investing about one third of the fund in four investments. We're seeing a rich pipeline of attractive dealflow."
Accent Equity Partners was formed in April 2003 following Nordico's recruitment of key members of Euroventures, a fellow Swedish private equity firm. The firm manages in excess of €500 million.

Thank You For Today is Death Cab For Cutie's ninth studio album. The indie rockers who formed over 21 years ago in Bellingham, Washington shot to success after the release of Transatlantacism back in 2003, and, have been at the fore front of festival lineups as well as consistent coast to coast, and worldwide sell out tours ever since. The band is fronted by Ben Gibbard, with Nick Harmer on bass, Jason McGerr on drums, Dave Depper on guitar, and Zac Rae on keys. Wrapped up in the beauty of the stunning Kings Theatre in Brooklyn, NY, Death Cab for Cutie gave us their all for two hours with some choice pickings across their catalog.
Opening the night was Brooklyn natives Charly Bliss. The immediate energy was contagious, and as the crowd began to spill in from the foyer folks were quickly engaged. The power pop rock four piece fronted by Eva Hendricks gave a thrilling performance which included a Cyndi Lauper cover for good measure. Full on, non stop, high intensity. Superb.

Opening their set with "I dreamt we spoke again" which is also the opening track from their new release Thank You For Today, Death Cab for Cutie were met with fever pitch fans who stood to welcome the band and then stayed on their feet for the next two hours. "Summer years" from the same record followed where Gibbard ponders "Sometimes I'm overcome, By every choice I couldn't outrun, The junctions all disappear, You can't double back to your summer years" The sound is ever evolving but the snaps that dragged us in once upon a time stays the same.

"Crooked Teeth" and "What Sarah Said" from Death Cab's 2005 release Plans came back to back later in the set, and, prompted the first sing a long of the night with fans crooning along with Gibbard through "What Sarah Said", as he questioned "Who's gonna watch you die". Plans is where the sound truly developed and resonates down the spine of Thank You For Today. Death Cab have never strayed too far from it and why fix it if it ain't broken.
After skimming the surface of the catalog we were brought back to Thank You For Today with the closing track from the record "60 & Punk" which is not only the jewel of the album but one of the finest songs Gibbard has written in recent years. "I used to watch you on the late night scene, The timely rescue of a metal teen, Six strings were strumming rhythm and lead, And that hadn't occurred to me" draws a beautiful image of adoration and coming of age followed by the painfully beautiful chorus "The curtain falls to applause and the band plays you off, the band plays you off, He's a superhero growing bored with no one to save anymore."
The night closed out with "Cath", "Soul Meets Body" and "Sound of Settling" and after a brief intermission Gibbard returned on his own with his acoustic guitar to give us "I will follow you into the dark". The crowd were invited to sing the final chorus on their own and I think we nailed it.
The band rejoined for "Your hurricane," "Tiny Vessels" and the grand finale "Transatlanticism."
The tour continues up and down the east coast until October 23rd (Charly Bliss opens all these dates).

It is now one year since Igloo proudly sponsored 25 Year old golfer Andy Cheese who is the touring professional affiliated to the Sutton Coldfield Golf Club, and what a fantastic debut year it has been for Andy.
Andy has been a committed golfer since an early age and has spent most of his teenage years on the golf course. He managed to qualify as a PGA Professional in 2010 after dedicating the 3 years prior to that studying for and successfully achieving his PGA degree.
2013 was Andy's first season of competing as a full time Touring Professional Golfer. Andy's whole life is dedicated to achieving his ambitions and he took part in an astonishing 53 different events, playing in 5 different countries. As a Professional debutant, his first season should have been about learning the ropes but Andy wanted more than that. Out of the 53 tournaments Andy has incredibly managed to win 7 tournaments, had 10 second places and a fantastic 35 top ten placements. When you consider that Andy also managed to win the prestigious Midlands Order of Merit, making him the most consistent golfer on his tour, it has been a truly outstanding achievement for his debut season!!

'Us against anybody': Inside the bond between twin brothers Shaquill and Shaquem Griffin

Photos: Scenes from Seahawks OTAs on Tuesday
With Shaquill, the Seahawks' third-round pick, locking down the starting right cornerback job in Seattle, and Shaquem coming off the best and final season of his college career, both Griffin brothers are thriving despite being apart from each other for the first time in their lives.

Most days, Seahawks rookie cornerback Shaquill Griffin sits in his locker before practice at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center with earphones plugged into his ears, staring down at his iPhone screen into a mirror image of his own face.
Occasionally, Griffin laughs heartily at something his identical twin brother, Shaquem Griffin, says via FaceTime from Orlando, Fla. As the hubbub of the Seahawks' locker room unfolds around them, the twins catch up every day, ensconced in their own little bubble.
A reporter approaches on this December afternoon to ask Shaquill how he and Shaquem, a linebacker who's just led Central Florida to a 12-0 regular season, are different in personality.
"He's definitely more goofy than I would be," Shaquill says, then laughs at a comment from Shaquem, who's listening in through their active FaceTime link.

"Shut up, Keem," Shaquill says into the microphone connected to his earphones, before turning back to the inquisitive media member.
"I'm more serious and mature," Shaquill responds with a grin, sorta, kinda tongue-in-cheek for the benefit of the twin who's listening in.
With Shaquill, the Seahawks' third-round pick, locking down the starting right-cornerback job in Seattle, and Shaquem coming off the best and final season of his college career, both Griffin brothers are thriving despite being apart from each other for the first time in their lives.
This weekend is big for the twins. Shaquill and the Seahawks have one last chance to try to earn a playoff berth in a must-win game against Arizona at home on New Year's Eve. Then, on New Year's Day, Shaquem and the UCF Knights will try to finish their undefeated season with a win in the Peach Bowl against favored Auburn.
Even though they live more than 3,000 miles apart, the Griffin brothers' unbreakable bond as twins continues to connect them as they embark on separate paths to forge their own identities.
The twin thing
Born a minute apart on June 20, 1995, Shaquill and Shaquem Griffin have been inseparable since birth, and until this year, beginning when Shaquill left Florida in January to train for the NFL draft, they had never been apart for more than a few hours at a time.
"As soon as I dropped him off at the airport and said goodbye, I came home and went to his room and it was tough to take his pictures down and pack up his stuff," Shaquem says.
"It was emotional. Giving him a hug and leaving and walking away," Shaquill says. "I was like, 'Damn, I'm actually leaving?' "
"I can't imagine what it would have been like if we were younger and separated for a year," adds Shaquem. "It was an experience."
Identical twins have been known to have a special connection akin to telepathy, and this unique connectedness has always flowed between the Griffin brothers.
"What one felt, the other felt the same thing," says Tangie Griffin, their mother. "It's almost as if one gives a look, and the other knows exactly what you're saying. They're so close it's like, 'I know what you're doing every minute.' "
On the football field, the Griffin brothers have always been a dream defensive tandem, with Shaquem, the linebacker, able to read Shaquill the cornerback's moves and play off him.
"They'd give each other a look saying, 'I know you're ready to jump this route,' and the other would give a look saying, 'I got your back,' " Tangie Griffin says.
This year, they've proved that the twin connection works long distance too.
"Shaquill is in Seattle and Shaquem is in Florida, and they were talking on FaceTime and had the same thing on one day, and they took a picture and sent it to the family group chat," Tangie Griffin says. "They were wearing white Adidas pullovers, one of them had on long, black Adidas sweatpants, and the other had on similar sweatpants, but shorter. That was the only difference."

The easiest way to tell the Griffin brothers apart is to look for their left hand. Shaquill has one. Shaquem does not.
Shaquem was born with amniotic band syndrome, meaning, a fibrous strand of the amniotic membrane wrapped itself around his left hand while he was still in his mother's womb. It prevented his hand from forming fully, and when Shaquem was born, his left hand was much smaller than the right, with five nubs instead of full-length fingers.
Shaquem's left hand was incredibly sensitive to touch, and any time the little boy accidentally hit his hand on anything, it caused him intense pain. So after Tangie woke up one night to the sound of Shaquem screaming in agony and clutching a knife in an attempt to cut off the offending left appendage, she knew she had to help her son.
Shaquem had his left hand amputated at age 4, and he's always told his parents that was the best decision they ever made for him.
He's never seen his missing hand as a disadvantage, and that mentality has made him a tough opponent on the field. He showed it in the Knights' conference-championship game against Memphis earlier this month when he outmaneuvered an offensive player for a fumble and recovered it despite having only one hand.
Even as a little boy, Shaquem often refused to let people help him do things he thought he should be able to do himself. That didn't stop his twin brother from trying, though.
Shaquill entered the world only a minute before Shaquem did, but he's always assumed the role of the protective older brother.
"He always says he's my big brother, and he acts like it," says Shaquem. "He's a minute older, but he acts like it's 10 years."
Tangie recalls getting a phone call from the boys' day care when they were little and being told that one of the other children had called Shaquem "pickle hand." Shaquem thought it was funny, but the comment angered Shaquill. He shoved the kid who had teased his brother and the day-care center called to ask Tangie to pick the boys up.
Yet, Shaquem, in his own way, feels equally protective of his "older" brother.
"When it comes to each other, we're relentless. We'll go to battle together no matter what it is, what the situation is. You always have family arguments, but we never fought," Shaquem said. "It was always us against anybody. We live our life like that."
Which is how the twins ended up playing college football together at UCF. Coming out of Lakewood (Fla.) High School, Shaquill had a slew of football scholarship offers. But fewer teams were willing to take a chance on a one-handed defensive back.
Shaquill wouldn't budge, though. He told every coach who recruited him that he and Shaquem were a package deal.
"I'm very family-oriented," Shaquill said. "I get that from my dad. My whole thing was to make sure (Shaquem) was happy."
So the brothers signed to play for George O'Leary at UCF. But the next few years went much more smoothly for Shaquill than Shaquem. Shaquill played nickelback as a freshman, worked as the second-string cornerback as a sophomore and won the starting role by his junior year.
Shaquem redshirted his first season, remained on the scout team the following year and played some special teams as a redshirt sophomore. But try as he might, Shaquem couldn't break into the defensive lineup at safety.
That 2015 season — Shaquill's junior year, Shaquem's redshirt sophomore year — was a trying time for the twins. Shaquill felt for his brother, because he knew Shaquem was unhappy and felt like he wasn't getting a fair shake. The Seahawks cornerback even mulled the idea of leaving school early for the draft out of solidarity for Shaquem.
At his lowest, Shaquem considered quitting football and transferring to a different school to run track.

The Griffins were saved from having to make any drastic changes when O'Leary resigned in October 2015. The Knights finished that season 0-12, but that woeful season brought Scott Frost into the mix.
Frost, O'Leary's replacement as UCF head coach, was passionate, energetic and — more important — willing to give every player a clean slate and re-evaluate them.
"It was huge," Shaquill says of Frost's hire. "It was at a point where my brother didn't want to play, and I wasn't sure if I wanted to stay or just declare to the draft early. The coaches just weren't giving him a chance."
The new coaching staff changed the defense from a 4-3 to a 3-4 and moved Shaquem to linebacker. He won a starting outside-linebacker job to begin his redshirt-junior season — Shaquill's senior year.
For the first time in years, that season, the Griffin brothers were starting on defense together again. Shaquill played his way to second-team all-conference honors. But Shaquem was the surprise of the year.
After waiting three years to get his chance, Shaquem finished his first season as a starter ranked 12th nationally with 11.5 sacks and 13th nationally with 20 tackles for loss and was named the American Athletic Conference's Defensive Player of the Year.
That position switch was key to his success. Linebacker aligns more closely with Shaquem's strengths than safety ever did, Shaquill says. And it's something their father, Terry, tried to tell Shaquem when the twins were in high school.
"My dad always told him, 'One day you're gonna play linebacker,' and he kinda fought back and was like, 'Oh, I know I'm a safety,' " Shaquill says, laughing. "As a safety, he was too worried about lining everybody up. But the way he plays the pace of the game, he's good at linebacker. It's less thinking. With him, it's 'just play fast.' That's the type of person he is. The way he covers, and the way he attacks the ball and tackles, it was a better fit for him."
NFL draft weekend in May was special for both brothers.
Remember The Twin Thing?
Well, when the Seahawks called to tell Shaquill they'd selected him as the 90th overall pick, no one was more excited for him than his twin.
"When he got the phone call to get drafted, I felt like I was the one getting drafted," Shaquem says. "All the butterflies came up."
Some of that emotion can be traced back to those bleak pre-Frost days at UCF, when a despairing Shaquem felt as if he'd done everything he could to get on the field, but would never get a chance to play.
"He always told me I would live through him no matter what," Shaquem says. "I said, 'As long as you're making it, we're both making it.' I remember we used to say that when we went through camps. Watching him play is like both of us are out here."
But it's starting to look as if Shaquill might not be the only Griffin brother in an NFL jersey next fall.
Shaquem has been productive in his senior season. He has 10 TFL and 5.5 sacks, he's been named an AFCA second-team All-American, and a first team All-AAC selection. And he's made some eye-catching plays for the Knights — his frenetic pursuit of Memphis quarterback Riley Ferguson in the final play of the AAC title game forced Ferguson to throw an interception that sealed the win for UCF.
Shaquill was watching that game on TV. And he felt Shaquem's big moment every bit as intensely as Shaquem had felt Shaquill's excitement when the Seahawks drafted him.
"It's weird. I felt like it was me chasing the quarterback," Shaquill says. "I jumped up. And he took off running, and I felt like I was chasing him too. It was so exciting to see him do it."
NFL teams will be watching when Shaquem and the Knights duel Auburn in the Peach Bowl.
Could Shaquem end up with the Seahawks? It's not impossible.
After all, the Seahawks think very highly of the first Griffin brother they drafted. Seattle defensive-backs coach Andre Curtis calls Shaquill a "very humble guy who really takes coaching, and really tries to hold true to the details," and says he was impressed by how easily Shaquill bought into the Seahawks' defensive style.
"He just forgot his stuff that he'd already known and just concentrated on bettering himself in what we were trying to do," Curtis says. "I thought that was really cool."
The Griffin twins would love nothing more than to be reunited in the same city as pros.
"They've been looking at him," Shaquill says of the Seahawks. "But at the end of the day, it's not my choice. If he does his part, he'll get his chance. And hopefully, they'll take him here. That would be awesome."
For what it's worth, Shaquem has at least one fan on the Seattle coaching staff.
Curtis says Shaquem is "a heckuva player."
"I tease (Shaquill) all the time, 'Hey, maybe we got the wrong brother,' " Curtis says. "His brother is really productive. He's unbelievable."

Y'know what can make a person feel fancy as heck? Lemon curd. It's just so very pinky-up, let's have some scones and pedicure our polo ponies, even though it's really quite simple to make. Just eggs, sugar, lemon juice and zest, butter, and some salt because every sweet thing should be legally required to have salt. It's like eating lemon meringue filling without all the fuss of crust and, like, meringue—which is a deeply weird substance. Y'know what's also hella great? Everything bagel seasoning, which is great on everything. So I made the two of them kiss like Barbie dolls. Keep up to date with new episodes of No Pressure by following and liking the No Pressure Facebook page.
Whisk eggs until frothy, then whisk in sugar, salt, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Pour into bowl, cover tightly with foil. Pour 1 cup water into Instant Pot, put trivet in place, and the bowl atop that. Cook on high pressure for 1 minute, then let it naturally release for 10 minutes.
Remove bowl from Instant Pot. The contents will look lumpy, but do not fear. Whisk them until smooth, and then whisk in butter, a quarter at a time. When the butter is thoroughly incorporated, stir in everything bagel seasoning. The curd will thicken as it cools. Let it cool in the refrigerator for about 4 hours and stir again before serving.
