Google authorship program-sometimes it works..and sometimes ...
-
sometimes my picture shows up in search results and sometimes it doesn't. I find it depends who's computer I search. Is there a way to make it show up all the time for search results? Also, what determines if your picture shows up besides the article itself or just on the right in a general box showing your google+ profile?

What you are likely experiencing is the effects of personalized search results. That is, results when you are signed into Google (hence the differing results on different computers).
First you need to check that you have correctly implemented the authorship markup here:

Remember, there is no guarantee that a rich snippet will be shown in search results. If you need help implementing the markup then there are several guides you can find through Google.
Hope this helps,
Adam.

Google badge extracted to SERPs
It's a while ago that (i thought) I read the following information on the Google badge. Here https://developers.google.com/+/plugins/badge/ we have the implementation guide, however I was under the impression the Google badge could be thereafter extracted into SERPs so the user could follow etc... direct from SERPs. I can't find anything confirming this. I think that it might clash with authorship data which does a similar job, but where a site page is not relevant to authorship at all, I would have thought linking back to the G+ page from SERPs was a sensible option. Can anyone confirm the Google badge can appear in SERPs?

Do Nofollows still work for Sculpting?
Before answering this, let me explain my goals. I know that Google made a change a couple years ago that discounts the amount of Page Rank passed to dofollow links when there is a nofollow link present on the page. My goal is to keep the most page rank possible on my home page and pass a specified amount of Page Rank to 7 out of 10 of the pages linked to from my home page. I realize that creating 3 of the outgoing links as no follow links is not going to increase the Page Rank being sent to the other 7 pages. My question is will my home page be able to retain the Page Rank that would have been used by the three nofollow links or is that Page Rank value just lost when I implement a nofollow?
