U.S. News & World Report Announces the Best Jobs of 2013 Rankings

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- All jobs aren't created equal. In fact, some are simply better than the rest. Today, U.S. News & World Report released its annual Best Jobs of 2013 rankings. The 100 occupations selected offer a mosaic of employment opportunity, good salary, manageable work-life balance, and job security, and span across six industries: business, construction, creative, healthcare, social services, and technology. The Best Jobs rankings and career profiles will be available exclusively at usnews.com/careers.

By including rankings for the top professions, the Best Jobs of 2013 allow job seekers to better evaluate occupations that should most appeal to their needs and qualifications. A few jobs that made a showing on both the 2012 list and the new 2013 list include occupational therapist, school counselor, and civil engineer. New to the 2013 list are jobs like IT manager, dental hygienist, and market research analyst.

"To help our readers make sense of an increasingly complex job market, we're continuing to grow our rankings and data on employment opportunities," said Brian Kelly, editor and chief content officer of U.S. News. "Lining up your interests, education, and skills with what employers are looking for is a big challenge. There are good options out there, but you need good data to find them."

The jobs U.S. News selected are some of those expected to have the greatest hiring demand from now until the year 2020, as determined by the Labor Department. Employment growth was also a factor in determining each job's overall score, as was median salary, future job prospects, unemployment rate, and the occupation's estimated stress level and work-life balance. Best Jobs of 2013 job profiles contextualize this information while also providing tips from industry leaders on the proper training to pursue, how to get hired and advance, and what type of work environment to expect.

Terrorist Attacks on America Before Osama Bin Laden Was Born : 1920 -2005.

Image
This is a record of all terrorist attacks in America and in countries with American interests and on American Embassies and citizens abroad. Osama bin Laden did not create the demons of terrorism. He is only one of the most diabolical and destructive of them all. The devil is the author of Terrorism in his capacity as the Son of Perdition and the father of chaos. It is very important to clarify these issues for the benefit of those who are ignorant and naive and have been jumping to erroneous conclusions. Terrorist Attacks (within the United States or against Americans abroad) 1920: septa. 16, New York City: TNT bomb planted in unattended horse-drawn wagon exploded on Wall Street opposite House of Morgan , killing 35 people and injuring hundreds more.

Let Us Talk To Boko Haram - Nigerian Professor

A Commentary Direct Talk and Psychological Accessibility to the Boko Haram Group Is worth the Trial in Nigeria It is now obvious that the nation is now fully plagued by terrorism which is so widespread and monumental that it is hard to unravel. At a time when the Nigerian air is filled with the festivities of Eid al-Adha, the feast of sacrifice, which in a supposed way should involve the slaughter sheep and cattle, and not the near-sacrifice of a son, as in Abraham’s case, but the reverse is the case.Human slaughter is in our face on a daily basis in Nigeria due to the Boko Haram wrath. Violence in Nigeria, a country of more than 150 million with an almost equal split between the Christian south and the Muslim north is affecting public safety and national security. Nothing appears to be stopping the inflammable and untamed-able torment, fear and worry across the country. There appears to be a legitimate state of distress nationally, and the cause of the state of distress is growing d...
