Cagliari vs Siena Preview
Ivo Pulga hopes Siena are not the team to shock him out of a wonderful dream as the Cagliari head coach plots a fourth straight Serie A victory on Wednesday night.
The former Rossoblu club captain was brought back to Sardinia in a bid to rectify a poor start to the season, but few will have expected the 48-year-old to secure three victories from his first three games in charge.
And with basement boys Siena next up at the Stadio Is Arenas, Pulga has reason to believe his remarkable start as head coach will continue.
He told the club's official website: "The dream goes on, and I hope I leave it to the last possible moment to wake up.
"Victories always give you a boost. To get three in a row has been unexpected but deserved.
"It may seem banal, but there is no better medicine than victories. They inspire you to train with even more enthusiasm.
"We hope that things continue like this and the group has demonstrated great spirit."
Pulga has not let his perfect record go to his head, though, and remains wary of the threat posed by Serse Cosmi's struggling Robur.
"They have tightened up their defence," he added.
"They don't give much space away and we will have to be patient, but aggressive, and look to make the most of every opening we create."
Defender Lorenzo Ariaudo and goalkeeper Vlada Avramov remain injury doubts for the hosts, with Pulga set to make a late call on the duo after training on Wednesday morning.
Cosmi will rest Alessandro Rosina, who has a muscle injury, after deciding to start the midfielder in Saturday's goalless draw against Palermo.
He told acsiena.it: "He hasn't fully recovered, and the discomfort is keeping him from playing at his best.
"We took a calculated risk playing him on Saturday, but now he has to get back in good condition."
The Robur are without a win in four outings and Cosmi wants to arrest that alarming trend - and end Pulga's hot streak - in the Sardinian capital.
"We need to improve on our performance against Palermo, but we are starting to show some positive signs, like solidity in defence," he added.
"We will come up against a team that is in great form and great shape. We will have to improve to get a result."

World in Conflict Console Port Cannedby Nick Breckon, Mar 04, 2009 1:28am PST
The console port of Massive Entertainment's RTS World in Conflict, originally announced for a fall 2008 release, has now been cancelled according to word from Massive owner Ubisoft.
"A console version of World in Conflict is not planned for release at this time," said an Ubisoft rep to IGN today.
50 Cent: Blood in the Sand developer Swordfish Studios was contributing work to the World in Conflict console port. Following Activision's merger with Blizzard Entertainment, the two branches of Swordfish were sold to Monumental Games and Codemasters.
Longtime RTS developer Massive Entertainment was sold to Ubisoft last November, saving the World in Conflict: Soviet Assault project, a PC expansion now planned for release later this month.

pumpkin shaped fruit called a tamarind that grows in S.E. Asia and India.
Garcinia Cambogia key weight loss ingredient is called HCA(Hydroxycitric Acid) which acts

All properties that are vital for effective weight loss results.
Noted researcher Identifies proven weight loss treatments that work. Dr. Harry Preuss, a clinical researcher at Georgetown University Medical Center using research methodology found that several products provided proven results in reducing, even eliminating unwanted weight. One was an all natural fruit extract called Garcinia Cambogia. Derived from an Asian fruit plant, Garcinia Cambogia was found to attack fat (not muscle) and help keep lost fat off. Dr. Preuss found that Garcinia Cambogia increases serotonin levels in user's bodies, which helps them maintain lower appetite levels, resulting in sustained weight loss.

The prominent political and legal blogger Glenn Greenwald comments on the growing Occupy Wall Street movement. "What this movement is about is more important than specific legislative demands. It…is expressing dissent to the system itself," says Greenwald. "It is not a Democratic Party organ. It is not about demanding that President Obama's single [jobs] bill pass or anything along those lines. It is saying that we believe the system itself is radically corrupted, and we no longer are willing to tolerate it. And that's infinitely more important than specific legislative or political demands." Greenwald also discusses the possible shutdown of the online whistleblower website WikiLeaks due to a "financial blockade" led by MasterCard, Visa and PayPal. "The reason why all these companies cut off funds is because the government pressured and demanded that they do so," Greenwald says. "So, no due process, no accusation of criminal activity. You could never charge WikiLeaks with a crime. They're engaged in First Amendment activity. And the government has destroyed them through their pressure and influence over the private sector... WikiLeaks has shed more light on the world's most powerful factions than all media outlets combined, easily, over the last year, and that's the reason why they're so hated."

"I was never nervous," Saks coach Michelle Lively said. "I might be during other games, but it's just a connection that Taylor and I have. I've been coaching her since the eighth grade, and I just look at her and can tell she's going to do what she needs to do. And she's been successful doing that."
With the count 2-2, West recorded the strikeout to seal the Calhoun County softball tournament championship. The strikeout was one of 13 for West.
"There's nobody more deserving than her to get credit like this," Lively said. "But there are a great group of girls behind her. They're young, but they're catching on and taking on new leadership."
West, a senior who led Saks to its first county tournament championship since 2008, allowed one hit and a walk in seven innings of work.
The key to her success? The answer isn't that complicated.
"I pitch better when it's dark outside," West said. "That's just how I roll."
The close call in the seventh inning wasn't the only opportunity fourth-seed Oxford had to score. In the fourth inning, Stewart Gail Chase reached on an error and wound up at third base with only one out.
"A pitcher like Taylor is hard to hit so when you get on you have to make something happen," Lady Yellow Jackets coach Wendy McKibbin said.
West said afterward she actually likes situations like the one in the fourth inning.
"It makes it a bigger out," she said. "It's not just a situation when we're strike them out or make an easy play, it puts pressure on you."
Under pressure, Saks got out of the inning with a pop out and strikeout.
The lone run for the second-seed Lady Wildcats came in the first inning and had Lively believing Saks was going to score more than the one run it eventually managed.
Pinch-runner Haley Moore replaced West, who was walked with two outs. Moore moved to second on Kelly Kilgore's single and scored when Laken Haynes reached on an error.
"In the first inning when we started hitting the ball, I thought it was great and we were getting the ball rolling and score a couple of runs every inning," Lively said. "I thought it was going to be a close, back-and-forth game. But I'll take it."
With two weeks of games left until the Class 3A, Area 8 tournament, including a two-game series with 10th-ranked White Plains, Lively is feeling good about her defending state championship team, which is ranked ninth.
"We're capable of a repeat if we can work on a few things," she said. "They've got the drive for it. They are asking me already when the next practice is. They're ready to go, but taking things one day at a time. They want to get better every day."
Oxford 10, Alexandria 5 — Oxford survived a marathon of more than two hours, getting six runs in the fourth inning. Turner had three hits to pace the Yellow Jackets, while Stewart Gail Chase and Sydney Williams each had two.
Alexandria made it a game in the fifth inning, adding three runs, but it was unable to overcome the strong hitting of Oxford. Timberlyn Shurbutt recorded two hits for the ninth-seed Valley Cubs.
Oxford added three insurance runs in the sixth inning, which were enough to hold off a late push by Alexandria with a run coming in each the sixth and seventh.
Alexandria 12, White Plains 5 — Alexandria took advantage of White Plains errors to stay alive in the tournament. The Valley Cubs scored six times in the fifth inning to take control.
Alexandria scored three runs each in the first and fourth innings. Kaitlyn Rhodes, Taylor Ellison and Erin Farlow each had two hits.
White Plains struggled to score runners when they reached base. Although scoring in the first, third and fourth innings, the Lady Wildcats left the bases loaded in the first and fifth innings along with two on base in the fourth. White Plains received multi-hit games from Morgan Cobb, Anna Snider and Lauren Mueller.
All-tournament team: MVP and Defensive MVP – Taylor West, Saks; Offensive MVP – Sydney Williams, Oxford; Other team members — Kelly Kilgore, Saks; Tiffany Springer, Saks; Stewart Gail Chase, Oxford; Raegan Nunez, Saks; Lexie Higgins, Oxford; Amanda Young, Alexandria; Kaley Gorden, Alexandria; MiKayla Owen, White Plains; Anna Snider, White Plains; Brooke Angle, Wellborn; Ashley Hedgepath, Pleasant Valley.

Bill Blass - Resort 2009
View Gallery
(NEW YORK) Peter Som looked to the photographs of Slim Aarons for his Bill Blass resort collection. "I wanted to capture the exuberant spirit and effortless chic of ladies lounging poolside at Eden Roc," said Som. "While their look is undeniably luxurious, it's tempered by a sporty, almost tomboy-like quality." Translating, and updating that aesthetic, Som presented classic sportswear separates and dresses fashioned in vibrant hues and prints. A collection of red carpet-worthy evening dresses in jersey and silk, some accented with pockets and unexpected jeweled details, round out the fantastic looks.

Average Interview
I applied through a recruiter and the process took 2 days - interviewed at General Motors.
Interview Details After talking with a recruiter during a networking session on campus, I received a call the following evening for an on campus interview. The interview was a first round screening of applicants. The interview process itself took about 15 to 20 minutes and candidates were interviewed back to back by two recruiters. Both recruiters asked questions and took notes on laptop/tablet. The interviewers were very friendly and there was already a level of familiarity between us, because I had met one of them during the previously mentioned networking. Questions were mainly directed to figure out the candidates personalities, interests within GM, and experiences. Case questions nor technical questions were given. The recruiters were open to questions after the interview and answered detailed questions about the possible job locations that an intern might be hired into.
Interview Question – "Tell us about a time when you had a to make a decision to give up something." Answer Question

A Man of No Importance — book by Terrence McNally; music by Stephen Flaherty; lyrics by Lynn Ahrens
23-27 July 2013
"What we had was something.
What we had was rare.
Poetry and art in the air.
And friends…"
In Dublin in 1964, bus conductor and Oscar Wilde fan Alfie has ambitions to stage Salome, despite the objections of the church hierachy at St Imelda's, where his amateur theatre group is based. When a newcomer to town, Adele, joins his passengers, he realises he has found the right person for the title role and starts to assemble his cast.
Meanwhile Alfie's sister Lily mistakes her brother's interest in Adele as romantic — she longs to have him off her hands so she can be free to marry. Little does Lily realise that Alfie's love "dare not speak its name" and the object of his affections is in fact bus driver Robbie.
As opening night draws near, secrets come spilling out which threaten to shake this little community to its core. But camaraderie and the redeeming power of theatre offer a thread of hope in this story of friendship, forbidden love and finding our place in the world.

Don't include Reed senior girls basketball standout, and state record holder, Tyler Sumpter in the list of those snoozing.
Sumpter, a Native American living on the reservation at Pyramid Lake, wakes up 15 minutes before 5 a.m., everyday, to catch a bus to school at 5:45 a.m. That's been her routine since seventh grade.
"You get used to it," Sumpter simply said of the daily task that would make many seniors in high school grumpy just thinking about.
After grade school, Sumpter had her choice of attending Pyramid Lake High School, Fernley, Spanish Springs or Reed. She had played with her current RHS teammate and fellow senior phenom, Gabby Williams, since fifth grade so she said the decision to become a Raider was never difficult. Williams committed to UConn (No. 1 women's basketball program in the country) this fall.
The two have since developed a bond as pure as Sumpter's stroke, both on and off the court.
"They read each other so well," Reed coach Sara Ramirez said. "Tyler knows when Gabby is cutting and where to stand for Gabby to kick her the ball and Gabby always knows Tyler's there. It's pretty hard for opponents to figure it out defensively and offensively."
Their first year at Reed, the duo referred to themselves as 'the freshman peeps' in dedication to one of their favorite fluffy snacks and their names are saved as 'bro' in each other's phones.
"It's hard to shut both of them down. If you focus on shutting one of them down, the other one is going to get hot," Ramirez said.
That was exactly the case Dec. 20 when Reed hosted Hug. The Hawks keyed on Williams, likely the best player in Nevada, and minimized her damage to 12 points.
Sumpter (averaging a team-high 24.4 points per game) went on to set a state record by hitting 14 three-pointers on her way to a 50-point night.
"It's still crazy to me that I did it," Sumpter said.
Sumpter said shooting is the best aspect of her game. Few would argue. She added that her shooting mentality and touch is a result of numerous Native tournaments she has played in, which are dominated by an up-tempo style of play.
Caught up in the moment of the game, Sumpter said she was unaware she was on the verge of entering the Nevada record books against Hug. As Ramirez and her teammates yelled from the bench, alerting her of what she was about to do, she didn't comprehend while playing defense.
"Everybody just kept rebounding and giving it to me and I hit two and then I don't know, they just all went crazy," Sumpter said.
Her significant contributions to the success of the Reed girls basketball program has resulted in a level of special attention rare for even some of the most dominant high school stars, particularly within the Native American community.
"Native Americans, they're really proud of me because a lot of kids come here from the reservation and they don't make it in big schools and they don't get to play basketball. They usually end up back at Pyramid Lake or at a smaller school," Sumpter said. "So I think it was kind of cool that I got to make it.
And now there are little Native girls here that come up to me and want to have a picture or stuff like that. I think it's cool. Then on Facebook they message me and say like 'oh yeah I look up to you now. Can I come shoot with you sometime?'"
She said the recognition from her younger fans is more rewarding than her on-court successes. And she has had plenty of them. As a three-year starter, she played major roles in Reed's North title her freshman year, state title (despite battling shin splints) as a sophomore and 6-1 start to this season.
"One of the greatest things about her is she is a gamer," Ramirez said. "She was injured when we won state her sophomore year and she forced through it, played through all the pain and everything … When a kid, especially a young kid like that, gutted up and played through stuff like that, it tells you what kind of gamer she is."
As one of Reed's most dangerous "gamers" alongside her fellow "bro," Sumpter has a legitimate opportunity to win her second career state title this season – 4:45 a.m. wake-up calls and all.

Or: My Time. Has Finally Come.
I've paid my dues, people.
Over the years, I've translated some REALLY shitty movies. Imagine the worst movie you've ever seen and then take away all plot, all budgeting, all special effects, all artistic DIGNITY–now add a questionably attractive Japanese girl with ill-concealed acne scars and bad razor burn in her Bermuda area, exposed by her scanty latex bikini… Enter the dastardly villain (probably the best boy grip, shoved into a cardboard outfit–they cannot afford another actor). …She's spent the first half of the movie throwing ill-choreographed punches in a seedy parking lot and now the villain's going to show her where it's at. This is the obligatory Torture Scene. The scene ALWAYS starts with Mr Clean Citrus Scented Cleaner, poured liberally over her tied up body, while the baddie cackles about how it's a horrible other-worldly substance that will now cause her enormous pain–the girl screams, but won't reveal whatever info. it is that he seeks. So he has no choice. He must untie her, throw her on the ground and spend the next five minutes grinding his boot into her vulnerable, soft stomach. In the sound-booth, someone abuses the 'tomatoes getting squished' button without remorse, and the girl screams and screams.
(Close-up of boot getting ground into stomach.)
//squish, squish, squish//
-Tell me the code.
-Never will I betray my friends…. AGHGHGHGHGHGHG IT HURTS!!!
//squish, squish, squish//
Me, as I translate: Fuck. What IS this garbage? Who watches this?
I try to imagine the intended audience for a 100 min. straight-to-DVD film of this nature, but not even the lowest strata of unwashed otaku moldering in their gloomy, spunk-encrusted Lolicon-dungeons could possibly be interested in such crap. That's how bad it is.
Move on to question two: Am I getting PAID enough to do this? And… well. Yeah. So I trudge on. But yet I dream, that one day, I will get an assignment that speaks to ME. …And after a year and a half of softsoft-core, ninja girl shenanigans, pro-female wrestlers and shameless Power Ranger knock-offs, it does get a bit better.
No more live action, I move into anime series–little girls breaking into the world of acting–little girls selling newspaper and being cute–little girls donning princess tiaras and kicking ass for the Lord. And I LIKE little girls, I mean, they're fun and all, still, not entirely my thing. But a translator-for-hire asks no questions. Like a spy working in an isolated cell, she receives her assignment handed down from way across the ocean, from a shadowy figure known to her only as—-
But we've just wrapped up a series (little girls/princesses). A new season begins and I wonder, with a little trepidation, what story I will now be following for a 52 episode duration… It could be about professional golf, it could be about little girls and their grade-school dramas, but no, not this time, because God is smiling on me–I know now that he exists and is just and good because my newest show will be about….
(With a publishing house as a back-drop, no less!)
But I think after all this time… I've earned it >:P
In other news, today was my last session with W until (–) is born… =( I will miss going over there and chatting about art and drinking coffee–but we will have a chance to resume once I've recovered a bit… In the meantime, if you haven't had a chance to see his drawings yet, here you go (this time, they are definitely big… =)

When done correctly, self-tanner doesn't have to be scary. It can be a great way to feel the summer vibe without the sun damage. Here are a few tips to help you achieve a perfect summer glow:
Step 1: Barrier Cream and Exfoliation
Before you do any self-tanner application, exfoliate your entire body. The tan will last longer because it will be applied to fresh skin. If you are a regular self-tanner user, multiple applications of self-tanner without exfoliation just looks dreadful. You must get that stuff off.
A barrier cream or body lotion will help certain areas absorb less of the self-tanner. This should be applied to the knees, ankles, feet, elbows, wrists and hands. These areas of thinner, drier skin soak up the tanning solution much faster; therefore they will process out darker if one doesn't limit the skin's absorption abilities. The lotion ensures these areas can't absorb too much tanning product.
Step 2: Get Your Tan On!
The preferred and best method is getting a spray tan from a trained professional. They know the dry spots, the contouring tricks, and how to do an even application. If that's not possible, then utilize these helpful self-tanner tips:
Avoid the tanning spray booth.
If you can't get a professional hand-sprayed application, then this choice may work but has its issues. Some people turn orange because one really can't choose the tanning solution being used. If your stance during the application is too stiff, you can streak. Bend your knees and back slightly when doing your back. This allows spray to get in that crease mark where your bum meets your legs, as well as limits how much gets behind the knees. No smile lines underneath the bum; it's a dead giveaway that you have been tanning. If you must use a spray booth, definitely bend! Turn your feet outward, not straight ahead. This will help you get an even distribution on the insides and outsides of your legs, regardless if you're facing front or back. And if you forget the barrier cream application, you will need to wipe off those areas listed in Step 1 immediately before it fully absorbs.
Self-Tanner Lotions
Your first application should be evenly distributed everywhere except the areas with barrier cream (refer back to Step 1), which should receive a bit less self-tanner. Remember to wipe the palms of your hands with a soapy washcloth about every five minutes, or they will stain. The washcloth is pertinent in this step. Simply rubbing your hands together with soap isn't enough to keep them from staining. The second application will be purely for contouring.
Tanning solutions on scars
Typically scars tend to grab more product as well, so while you do want to get these covered, take a baby wipe and wipe the scar after the application. If it is a fine-line type of scar, make sure you use the baby wipe over your finger nail or over a nail file to wipe the scar, leaving self-tanner on the area around it. It will blend.
Step 3. How To Contour
I swear by contouring; it is amazing. Most beauty professionals who spray tan will know the contour spots. Once you have self-tanner (spray or lotion) on your entire body, simply apply more self-tanner in these zones:
- top of the cheekbones;
- directly above and beneath the clavicle bones of your chest;
- top of your shoulders and top of the arms to give a sun-kissed glow;
- inside the arm - Accentuate the bicep by making a fist to find the bicep, then spray or apply extra self -tanner underneath the muscle;
- inside the leg - Point your toe to the ground and put pressure on the ball of your foot to pop out the calf muscle. Apply your self-tanner or airbrush the area directly below the calf. If using a spray, you will want to spray upward in a "J" motion towards the back of the knee;
- stomach - Apply extra spray or lotion from the bra-line down to the hip bones on both sides of the stomach, leaving the middle area (about 5 inches wide) untouched by this second application. Use a zigzag motion, if you are using an airbrush sprayer, and a circular motion, if using lotions.
Fake Tan Give-Aways
1. The orange face.
You can avoid this look entirely by using the right self-tanners that have a good percentage of DHA or erythrulose. This determines the 'orange factor.' Too much of either ingredient can cause this orange hue. My favorites for airbrush machines are Sun Labs Ultra-Dark or Norvell. For lotions, I like Jane Iredale's Tantasia and Bare Minerals' Faux Body Lotion.
2. Overly tan fingers, toes, ankles and wrists.
As mentioned earlier, if you apply the same amount of self-tanner here as you do the rest of the body, it is guaranteed to be too much. Simply apply barrier cream lotion before spraying or applying self-tanner in these areas and use less self-tanner in general. Follow this by wiping them with a washcloth.

This gun has the magazine located under the barrel and all of the motions are direct and positive. The cartridges are held securely in position while passing from the magazine over the carrier to the chamber in the barrel, in which respect it has a decided advantage over other magazine arms. The cartridge does not pass on to the carrier until the gun is opened for the purpose of loading, so that there is no danger of a cartridge being exploded in the carrier in case a defective cartridge is fired in the gun.
The arm is always left at half-cock, and the breech locked so that it cannot be jarred open and the cartridge lost out. From the half-cock it can be brought to the full-cock readily and quickly while the arm is being carried to the shoulder, and without removing the finger from the trigger; in this last respect differing from many other magazine guns, which can only be cocked by removing the hand from the trigger.
The parts are all large and strong, and can be readily removed and replaced for the purpose of cleaning or inspection. The magazine is so arranged that it can be charged while the breech is closed, thus avoiding the entrance of dirt into the working parts of the gun. The gun may be held either barrel up or reversed for this purpose.
To charge the magazine.�Hold the arm in the left hand, the butt-stock under the right arm. Grasp the cartridge between the thumb and the forefinger of right hand, and press it forward, bullet first, into the magazine with the end of the thumb, which may be held sideways for that purpose. The magazine may be charged with the breech either open or closed, and with the cut-off lever in its forward or backward position; but it is more convenient to do so with the breech closed and the cut-off lever back.
To load from the magazine.�First. If the arm has been fired or the hammer is down, unlock and draw back the breech-bolt quickly and with sufficient force to bring it clear back, thereby locking and raising the carrier and bringing up a cartridge. Shove the bolt forward and lock it; the hammer will remain at halfcock. If it is desired to fire, the hammer may be brought to full-cock while the arm is being lifted to the shoulder, the forefinger remaining on the trigger. Second. If the arm has been closed and left at half-cock, lower the hammer and then proceed as before. After the cartridge has been transferred from the magazine to the chamber, it should either be fired or removed from the gun before another cartridge is passed through the carrier.
To use the arm as a single loader, with the magazine in reserve, push the cut-off lever forward. This cuts off the passage of the cartridge from the magazine. The arm may then be used as a single loader. This gun is so made as to be left at half-cock after loading; but if it is preferred to have it left at fullcock, it is only necessary to remove the hammer fly, which is let into the tumbler to carry the trigger over the full-cock notch. See Remington Arms.

In December 1949, the seat of the Republic of China moved from the Chinese mainland to Taipei, Taiwan, where the demoralized Kuomintang (KMT) set about establishing a new power redoubt and gradually transforming itself into a credible regime that would endure for the next half century. In addition to records of the KMT, a considerable portion of Hoover's Taiwan collection contains personal papers of KMT officials who were important between the 1970s and the 2000s, the time when the democratization and economic development of the island began to take shape. These include the personal papers of prominent KMT officials including Tang Fei, Wei Yong, Mah Soo-lay, Huang Zhenqiu, Wang Zuorong, and Shen Junshan and those of political opponents such as Lei Zhen and Chen Fumei. Papers from Taiwan's democratization movement, documented in a series of dang wai (gray literature), were also collected at Hoover. Hoover's Taiwan political campaign collections include electoral materials from the Democratic Progressive Party, Taiwan's ruling party between 2000 and 2008. Other collections contain English-language materials from and about Westerners and foreign bodies dealing with Taiwan before and after V-J Day, including the personal papers of Admiral Thomas H. Binford, George H. Kerr, William Green, Pardee Lowe, George F. Mott, and Paul Vander Meer and the records of the Joint Commission on Rural Reconstruction and the United States Economic Cooperation Administration in Taiwan.

FORTUNE -- Nobel-prize winning chemist Roald Hoffmann has had anything but a simple path to success. He was born in Poland, and survived the Nazi labor camps. He came to America at the age of 12, attended the prestigious Stuyvesant High School in New York, then Columbia, then Harvard.
Hoffmann received a Nobel in Chemistry in 1981 at the age of 44, but certainly didn't rest on his laurels. The 75-year-old scientist has advised over 200 graduate students, Ph.D.s, and postdocs, taught introductory chemistry at Cornell, co-authored plays, and published poetry. Currently, he helps run a science and performance event on the second Sunday of every month at the Cornelia Street cafe in New York. He recently talked to Fortune about leadership, molecules, and the psychology of enabling crazy ideas. Here is an edited transcript of the conversation.
Fortune: You can think of your work as a kind of business, can you not?
Roald Hoffmann: Yes, so you can do an economic input-output analysis of what I do. Our product is 560 scientific papers plus countless talks and other things, but really the papers. I am in the business of making ideas and they're not patentable nor copy-writable nor anything. Interesting. Input is perhaps $200,000 - $300,000 per-year of research funds to employees and co-workers and the output is 560 scientific papers.
And that requires some of the management skills you see in business?
In science, almost all the papers we publish are written together with several people in research groups. But within that research group, somehow, we have mastered the ethics of collaboration.
MORE: Job-hunting law school grads will face a 'perfect storm'
There's something about the way that the group leader tells people that an idea made by one of the other people in the group is not good or not right. The criticism is made in a way which allows the person, first of all, to come up with further evidence, but more importantly, doesn't shake them so that they're afraid of making another idea.
It is a fine line. And probably in management school, one tries to teach the psychological skills by which you create a situation where people aren't afraid to come out with crazy ideas. More

SOURCE West Coast Products-Olinda Brand
SAN FRANCISCO and CHARLESTON, S.C., Feb. 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- A couple of years ago Mark "Morty" Mathias lost his ability to walk but not his zeal for sales. By the time he was diagnosed in 1992 with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, or limb-girdle MD, Mathias had already distinguished himself as a food industry executive.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130828/AQ70687LOGO)
Mathias is currently an independent broker for West Coast Products-Olinda Brand. "I always aspired to sales, anything that would put my problem solving skills to work," he said. "My grandfather owned a grocery store and my father was in food sales. This left a direct influence on me, a taste for moving products."
From his base in Charleston, SC Mathias operates a thriving business selling olive oil and olives across several states to food distributors, independent chefs, food service establishments, and specialty food shops. He sells such high volume-9,000 gallons of extra virgin olive oil and 4,000 pounds of olives annually-that he's often referred to as the "olive oil man" by folks in South Carolina's Lowcountry region.
Always athletic Mathias noticed in his thirties he was having difficulty golfing, even going out for a jog. "I tried to run and would hit the concrete so I knew that wasn't a smart idea. Tried running on grass but still couldn't do it."
Eventually a muscle biopsy revealed limb-girdle MD, a neuromuscular genetically-based disease that belongs to a group of disorders, which affect a person's voluntary muscles. The bony structure surrounding the shoulder area, "the shoulder girdle," and the bony structure surrounding the hips, "the pelvic girdle," are called the "limb girdles." The muscles that connect to the limb girdles are most involved in limb-girdle MD.
Mathias leverages technology to support his sales efforts and doesn't consider himself bound by his high-tech wheelchair or inability to walk or drive. "Most people don't optimize their situation. I'm tenacious and think about the most efficient way to persevere."
With a friendly direct sales pitch Mathias willingly shares the benefits and attributes of olive oil and olives. Just ask him.
About West Coast Products and the Olinda Brand
Since 1937, West Coast Products of Northern California has provided professional and home kitchens with specialty olives and olive oils under the Olinda Brand. The company's commitment to natural, fresh, and in-season premium private-label table olives and private-label olive oils meets the highest standards of California state certification, which ensures top quality olive products.

AUSTIN -- Help is going out to the victims in West. The small community of about 2,800 residents is described as tight-knit. Officials say they've seen the community come out in force offering a shoulder for others to lean on.
Officials say the need in West is more emotional than material at this time. Mental health agencies have been deployed along with counselors. The Austin Disaster Relief Network, a group of more than 100 churches, is partnering with Red Cross' Disaster Assistance Center to provide support. ADRN says their team includes volunteers trained in emotional and spiritual care as well as 50 trained chaplains.
Since much of the community is centered near the fertilizer plant that exploded, many in the town are suffering some sort of loss. Dozens of homes were leveled in the blast. Neighbors rushed to help each other. Their focus centered first on the injured.
"I offered my vehicle. It was parked right there. We loaded up. I could only fit one person at a time. I took three trips. [I drove] two [victims] to Hillcrest [and] one to Providence. The first one was in bad shape," said Wesley Adcock.
Austin-Travis County EMS sent two of its commanders to West to help coordinate with rescue teams.
The Austin Fire Department also sent a team of seven to join Texas Task Force One.
In Abbott, just five miles to the north of West, donations are pouring in. The school gym was filled with cots, clothing, and food made available to any victims or first responders who need it.
"We did get some first responders this morning they were able to get some food, get some water. One even got some socks," Abbott ISD Superintendent Ricky Edison said.
"The goal is just to ratchet down the level of the trauma to make the turmoil in their minds and hearts decrease just a little," said Susan Martin from Austin Disaster Relief Network.
The volunteers said lending a hand in a time of tragedy is the least they can do.
Willie Nelson, Abbott's most famous native son, announced Thursday that his upcoming concert at The Backyard in Austin will now be a fundraiser for the town of West.
In Central Texas businesses are pulling together to help fill other needs. The Blood Center of Central Texas is taking in donations. The bank says it is in need of O+ and O- blood and platelet donors. The injuries are widespread.
"It was something that I never want to see ever again. There were people hurt everywhere," said Adcock.
There are also groups accepting donations for victims including water and blankets along with household supplies including clothing, food and baby supplies.

I agree with the other reviewers, to me... wasted space in my tool box. Of the 6 times I have used it I have had to redo frets every time. Maybe Stewmac could have incorporated the Jaws2 press seeing the bar clamp is the same, would be more reasonable then.
I bought one of these a while ago (before the rating system). I couldn't get a single fret seated properly with it. I ended up spending about an hour trying to make this tool work the way it's supposed to and decided to ditch it and just hammer the frets in. I will say that SM is awesome about returns. They had no issue taking it back. I've been thinking about getting one of the other Jaws tools, but this one just doesn't seem to want to work unless the slots are quite loose, at least looser than I like to work with.
I bought a j-3 when it first came out. Almost immediately I screwed the middle screw down too far and ruined the retaining ball bearing. S.M. folks are such great people - they sent me a new one immediately - no charge. After not needing to use the tool for several months (I have all their other fretting tools, J1,J2, fret press, and hammers - and use them regularly) I forgot about the bearing and once again broke it. My own fault. No excuses this time. I do think the plastic knobs for pressing down the brass inserts are weak (metal or a different type would be nice) - I cracked one tightening it. So all in all - The tool has it's uses, but YOU also have to know it's limitations. Like many of S.M.'s tools, it's meant to be used by professional, trained luthiers - not wood workers who think they are guitar "builders". I applaud S.M. for all their recent "training" videos as it has expanded their market place and helped many a player. I am a big S.M. supporter and have many/most of their tools. I am glad I bought this tool. Sometimes it's just what you need to get the job done. Time is money. Just wish they sold replacement bearings/parts for forgetful people like me. :)
Important: "Works for entire necks, too!" DOES NOT MEAN that it works good. This tool uses standard stewmac aluminium radius-block as a base - and this base still has 7,25" radii! On fingerboards flatter than 7,25" - 99% of all fingerboards - you can easily damage recently installed frets while clamping jaws3 to the neck. Of course i tried to use some soft material as a padding between fretboard and jaws3 base, but there was another problem: now the central pressure screw can't reach as deep as needed (padding adds some height). And more: If you accidentally move central screw too deep, the insert holding ball will be broken. And now the screws. Seriously, they are really hard to turn when pressing fret into the slot. This tool is a weak - ordinary fret press (or drill press with radius insert) will be much stronger. Actually I archived better results even when pressing fret with one big red clamp (through jaws3, of course). I'm totally disappoint.

This past weekend Saturday Night Live brought us the super annoying Miley Cyrus Show and we loved it. "I got guests and a show and am ready to go so I guess that's pretty cool, it's pretty cool," la, la, la! We can't quit singing this contagious ditty from the opening sequence of the Miley Cyrus Show on Saturday Night Live. Since we think Miley needs to bring it down a notch, we're in love with this clip and think that SNL newcomer comedienne Vanessa Bayer definitely nails her impersonation. Just watch for yourself as we get an exaggerated (or not) version of the Disney star. Big points to actor Bryan Cranston for doing a great Billy Ray Cyrus, too.Read more »

Miley Cyrus Shows Us Her Animal Instinct
Miley Cyrus is giving the Cheetah Girls a run for their money in these sexy leopard tights. Can't be tamed, indeed! The teen queen grabbed a bite at Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills with some friends and took the opportunity to show us her eclectic sense of style. Aside from rockin' those animal print tights, her pink and black feathers are a bit random ... but still cute. We gotta say, props to Miss Miley, 17, for facing the cameras fresh-faced and with simple tousled hair. Nice to see our girl finally looking her age.Read more »
