Science, Technology and Society
Secondary PhD Field Science, Technology and Society
GSAS offers a Secondary Field in Science, Technology, and Society (STS) to candidates for the PhD, DDes, and SJD degrees. STS offers social scientists, humanists, and professional school students an opportunity to enrich their research by examining how developments in science and technology intersect with their primary areas of concern. STS also offers doctoral students in science, engineering, and design the opportunity to explore in a rigorous way the social contexts that condition their work.
STS is an interdisciplinary field dedicated to the deeper understanding of the institutions and practices of scientists, engineers, physicians, architects, planners, and other technical professionals. Incorporating contemporary as well as historical studies, STS explores in the broadest terms the relations between science, technology, and other elements of society. STS employs a variety of methods from the social sciences and humanities to examine how science and technology both influence and are influenced by their social, cultural, and material contexts. Of particular interest is the role of technologies and technological systems in shaping the purposes, possibilities, and meanings of human lives, from the creation of novel biological organisms to the redesign of urban infrastructures and the management of global risks to health, food, and the environment.
A. Advice and Contact
Students should, if possible, select an adviser from the list of Faculty Affiliates of the STS Secondary Field. In the absence of an appropriate Faculty Affiliate in their Department or School, students may work with their own doctoral supervisor. Courses required for the Secondary Field should be selected in consultation with the student's STS adviser. Further information is available through the Kennedy School STS Program.
B. Course Requirement
Students will be required to take four half-courses, distributed as follows:
(i) One framing course from Annex 1, Section (i). These are general courses offering an overview of STS theories and methods, as well as a broad orientation to the field.
(ii) One graduate level topical course from Annex 1, Section (ii). These are complementary courses that deepen students' acquaintance with STS analytic approaches as applied to different domains of science, technology, and medicine.
(iii) Two half-courses of related interest from Annex 1, Section (iii-v).
A full list of STS courses may be found at http://www.hks.harvard.edu/sts/courses/.
C. Other Requirements
In the course of their PhD studies at Harvard, students must present a talk in the STS Circle sponsored by the Kennedy School's STS Program with support from GSAS. This talk should demonstrate the student's capacity to present an original analysis of a problem at the intersection of science, technology and society. Proposals to present in the STS Circle should be accompanied by a note of approval from the student's STS adviser.

Roger Dunn, who revolutionalized the retail golf market and taught golf in Studio City, has died at age 81, reports the Los Angeles Times.
The former golf pro is the namesake for a chain of retail golf stores throughout California and Hawaii, .
The Times reports Dunn died Aug. 28 at Kindred Hospital in West Covina after being in and out of heart conditions since May. A celebration of his life is scheduled to take place at 1 p.m. Sept. 30 at Weddington Golf and Tennis, 4141 Whitsett Ave. in Studio City, where he taught both early and then late in life.
After playing golf for John Muir High School in Pasadena—where he went two years before losing a match, according to a February 2011 Southland Golf Magazine article— and for USC, he went on to have a stint in the PGA in the early 1960s.
During his short professional career, he remembered "beating Jack Nicklaus by two shots the first time Jack played in the L.A. Open," he told Southland Golf. But, he indicated to the magazine, he left the tour at age 24 for the security of a teaching paycheck. By then, he had "three young mouths to feed," he said to Southland Golf.
That's when he began work in Studio City at what now is Weddington Golf and Tennis, reports Southland Golf Magazine, which went on to say that after a few years, he assumed ownership of a nearby pro shop in North Hollywood, where, he told the Times, he had to mark up products by at least 40 percent, per a PGA mandate.
"I thought that was too much. So at the end of the model year, I would buy up merchandise at a deep discount, and even with a 40-percent markup, it was still cheaper than anywhere else," the Times reports him as saying.
The discount golf business took off and Dunn's son Steve opened the first Roger Dunn Golf Shop in Santa Ana in 1978. By 1986, there were 16 stores across the state. And, currently, there are 18 in California and Hawaii—.
After leaving the retail industry, having sold his part in the company to his son, Dunn went on to focus on other things and, in 1988, went back to teaching golf in Studio City, the Times said.
"Recently, I've discovered things I believe will revolutionize teaching and I pray I live long enough to get it out of my head and on to paper because golf is a great game when you play it well," he told Southland Golf last year.
The Times reports Dunn is survived by his children, Cheryl Alderson, Steve, Tim and Tracy; his brother, Ray; six grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

BEAUMONT — NEDERLAND – Part of what makes high school football great is seeing players develop over a career, working hard to earn a spot in the starting lineup and then performing at a high level. For Nederland senior safety Bryce Whaley, that path to self-improvement came through the track team.
"Last spring, he did both baseball and track," Nederland safeties coach Chris Theriot said. "He spent a lot of time working on his speed, because he knew what role he'd have this fall. He knew it'd help him in multiple sports and has done an incredible job working on and improving on that."
Defensive backs generally need to be fast, and Whaley always had good speed, but needed to improve on the quick-twitch things that make up most sprints and football plays.
"I have the top end speed, but I needed to get better in those first few steps to get more explosive," Whaley said. "It definitely helped. I practiced real hard with it and it paid off. It helped me get faster."
That determination to get better was noticed by his coaches, as Whaley came up on the radar in the spring because of his work ethic.
"He's a guy that is self-made, self-motivated," Nederland head coach Larry Neumann said. "In his career, he's come a long way because of his commitment and determination to get better. That caliber of character that he has goes a long way towards success. It's not always about 40-yard dash times or how much you can bench press. There are others like him, but he's the poster child for what his contribution to this team has been."
In a prep sports world that sees more players moving toward year-round specialization, it's refreshing and unusual to see someone like Whaley try to take on both baseball and track & field to improve himself.

Two men given suspended jail terms over cash point frauds in Pembrokeshire
2:02pm Saturday 18th January 2014 in News
SUSPENDED SENTENCES:Two Romanian men have received suspended sentences for tampering with cash machines in Pembrokeshire. (3492671)
Two Romanians who tried to steal from cash machines across Pembrokeshire—succeeding just the once—have received suspended prison sentences.
Lucian Ghiurcuta, aged 29, had denied attempting to steal, two of theft, two of possessing articles to use in fraud and one of actual fraud. He was convicted of all of the offences after a trial at Swansea crown court.
Mihai Patrascu, 25, admitted the first five offences on the day the trial was about to start.
During Ghiurcuta's trial the jury heard how the men had travelled from their home in Wiltshire to fit copying devices onto cash machines that were able to gather data from the cards used by members of the public.
CCTV cameras captured the men interfering with machines in Pembroke and Tenby.
A High Court judge, Mr Justice Wyn Williams—sitting at the Royal Courts of Justice in London and connected to Swansea crown court by video link—said the men had used a skimming device to obtain the credit card details of Kay Kees, and got away with £943 by using the card to buy goods or withdraw cash.
They also made several attempts at other cash points.
He said the pair were caught a few days later when police stopped their car in Birmingham and discovered items that could be used to defraud.
Mr Justice Williams said he had no doubt a third man had been involved but he had "fled to Romania to escape justice."
Ghiurcuta was jailed for nine months and Patrascu for eight, both sentences suspended for two years.
Ghiurcuta was ordered to carry out 100 hours of unpaid work for the community and Patrascu 90.
They were also ordered to pay the Nationwide bank £943.

I was sad to see Chameau close,...is the current state of Tagine worth trying?
I didn't go to Chameau to be among interesting people (it was empty the last few times i went).
Nor did i go looking for belly dancing.
I went for the food which i thought was fantastic.
Now that it's been shuttered for a while, some folks have pointed me toward Tagine.
Who's been recently? Does it measure up?
And, no, i'm not asking if i Ryan Gosling will be there. While i believe his performance in Half Nelson, Lars, Drive and Blue Valentine were impeccable, I don't pick my restaurants based on which famous actor co-owns a restaurant.
We can save famous actors running restaurants for another stream...

There is a BlackBoard Eats deal today for Tagine so that might make it easier to try for yourself. However, while I have not been in a couple of years, I always enjoyed my meals there when I used to go.
132 N Robertson Blvd, Beverly Hills, CA 90211
Does Chameau still have the deli open?
Maybe we could coerce them to open for dining on the original menu for the weekends only, while keeping the deli for the weekdays.
Like you, I felt the food was delicious, and in the approximately six or so times I ate there, it was fairly busy but seldom full.

FreeDOS prebuilt bootable USB flash drive image
Here you can download a prebuilt bootable FreeDOS image file for use on an USB flash drive.
The image file is available in different sizes. Each has an FAT 16 filesystem which can be mounted and written to by nearly any operating system. This way you can put additional files onto the stick after you have written the image. The 256MB and 2048MB images differ only in free space. They both have the same FreeDOS 1.1 installation on it. That is the reason for both image files being only 7 MB in size – they will grow when uncompressed.
The 30M image has been created upon user request: It contains the base installation of FreeDOS only and was used to update the firmware of a bunch of servers via PXE network boot.
Why FreeDOS?
I needed to update the firmware of my HP Proliant Microserver. The firmware update boots FreeDOS from CD-R, but I didn't have an optical drive built into my server. So I was looking for some way to get FreeDOS to boot off an USB stick.
A user told me that the image file can be PXE-booted over the network and this was used to rollout firmware updates to a bunch of servers.
- Download the image file which fits on your USB stick:
|Download size
|use for…
|…small USB flash drives and PXE network boot.
Only the FreeDOS base package is included.
|…USB flash drives between 256 MB and 2 GB in size
|…USB flash drives larger than 2 GB in size
Older releases are still available for download on my FTP server:
FreeDOS-1.1-memstick-2-256M.img.bz2 ^^^ ^ ^^^^ | | `-- Minimum size of USB stick to put this image on | | | `------ Number of release | `------------------ FreeDOS version used
Installation is rather simple if you have some Linux- or *BSD-based system at your hand. For Windows, you need something that works like dd – see below.
Linux / BSD
- Download the image file which fits on your USB stick.
Unpack the image file with
bunzip2or a similar tool:
bunzip2 FreeDOS-1.1-memstick-2-256M.img.bz2
ddto copy the uncompressed image to your USB flash drive::
dd if=FreeDOS-1.1-memstick-2-256MB.img of=/dev/sdz bs=512k
This command takes some time; replace
/dev/sdzwith the actual device name. Omit the partition number. Use the device name referring to the whole disk. On Linux, something like
/dev/sdzis ok, but
/dev/sdz4would not work as it addresses the partition of a disk.
For Windows you will need a program that works like dd. I recommend Win32 Disk Imager for this job, but I will list other alternatives here, too.
Here is what I've found so far:
Win32 Disk Imager
Win32 Disk Imager is my recommended choice fo writing images. This tool has a graphical user interface which makes writing images easy.
dd for windows
dd for windows is a command line tool, just like the original
dd command on Linux.
I've tested writing the image with "dd" for Windows and this worked for me, but you really should feel confident in working on the command line.
Open a Windows command line by running
cmd.exe and
change into the directory holding the downloaded and unzipped files.
The command options I used for writing the image looked like this
(but don't just copy them – read below!)
C:> dd if=FreeDOS-1.1-memstick-3beta.img of=\\?\Device\HarddiskX\Partition0 bs=512k --progress
HarddiskX with the correct device name of your USB stick! Use
dd --list to get a list of devices found on your system.
Technical Notes
The partition size is actually 250 MB for the 256 MB image, or 2000 MB for the 2048 MB image, with FreeDOS taking up about 32 MB. The remaining space can be used for additional files.
It is no problem to use larger flash drives, but you will still only see a 250 MB or 2000 MB partition.
Read the old howto or the new image generation howto if you want to make a bootable USB drive or a bootable image on your own. You can create any filesystem size supported by FAT16 or FAT32.
How did you do this? How can I build my own?
Should you want to make your own image file from scratch, please read the FreeDOS boot image generation HOWTO. You will need Linux and some open source tools for this.

Quote:Bob,Here is what my Q7 looked like on my picknicktable
Quote:Hi Bob!Great question. It's never really been a problem. During winter months when ambient temperature is well below "out of the case" scope temperature, I typically get the scope out there by twilight and let it cool down with the rest of the air. When I polar align or start observing after dinner, it's ready. Usually stabilizes within a hour, two at most - no more. The most shifting comes in Fall and Spring, when differences between air and ground temperature are greater. On these nights, I experience the mirror phasing slightly out of curve as it attempts to equalize to ambient temperature. Any 6" APO will be less affected in such an environment.Questar puts a lot into their mirrors to counter these effects, namely using "Zerodur" instead of Pirex as a base. It's an option when you order. I highly recommend the Zerodur. The instrument is so well made and so well designed; if the night is bad enough to make the Q7's stability an issue, I probably wouldn't want to be out observing in the first place.I tend to go for my 4" refractor when I know my time is limited, preferring the Q7 for longer sessions. Let me know what you decide. Good wishes ~ Bill
Quote:Nothing compares to that Mystic Purple color scheme.

And ASHBASS has it.
My FUZZbrite pedals are exact reproductions of the original Mosrite Fuzzrite® circuit with the added convenience of true-bypass switching, input jack battery on/off, and AC power input.
The sample licks were recorded clean and then played from a CD into a FUZZbrite and a vintage Mosrite Fuzzrite® pedal. Each sample has the same lick played twice, once through each pedal. I won't say which comes first or second in each sample. That's how good the FUZZbrite sounds.
Price: $115.50
Check here for available inventory.
Dealer inquiries are welcome.
Minimum discounted dealer order is 10 units.

Pineal cyst
* Not a rare disease
See Disclaimer regarding information on this site. Some links on this page may take you to organizations outside of the National Institutes of Health.
Your QuestionMy wife was diagnosed with a cyst on her pineal gland. We have been researching information and have seen both good and bad things. She's had two MRIs and bloodwork done, and the doctors believe it's benign. What else can we do?
Our Answer
We have identified the following information that we hope you find helpful. If you still have questions, please contact us.
Questions on this page
Pineal cysts are cysts of the pineal gland, a small organ in the brain shaped like the seed of a pine cone that is responsible for making melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep. Pineal cysts may be found by chance in up to 10% of people undergoing CT or MRI brain imaging, and they occur in three times more women than men. Most pineal cysts do not cause symptoms and stay the same size over time (remain stable).[1] In the rare circumstance where a pineal cyst does cause symptoms, it may cause headaches, hydrocephalus, eye movement abnormalities, and Parinaud syndrome.[2] Because most pineal cysts do not grow or cause symptoms, there are no established guidelines for routine follow-up for individuals with pineal cysts. Treatment is usually only considered when a cyst is causing symptoms.[3] In the past, treatment for symptomatic pineal cysts included surgery to remove the cyst (craniotomy); more recently, less invasive procedures such as stereotactic aspiration or endoscopic treatment have been recommended.[4]
Last updated: 10/16/2012
How might a pineal cyst be managed if it does not cause symptoms?
The best medical management for pineal cysts has yet to be determined.[3] Because most pineal cysts do not cause symptoms (asymptomatic), some articles do not recommend repeated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the cyst. They believe that a small cyst (which they define as less than 10-14 millimeters in size) is unlikely to change or cause symptoms later in life; therefore, they suggest that individuals with a pineal cyst have regular clinical check-ups with their personal doctor.[3] Another article suggested that individuals with a pineal cyst should have a series of several MRIs to prove that the cyst is not growing over time.[1] However, if at any point new symptoms arise that may be related to the pineal cyst, new imaging should be done of the pineal cyst.[1]
Last updated: 12/29/2011
What are the signs and symptoms of pineal cysts?
Pineal cysts are usually asymptomatic. However, there are rare cases of symptomatic pineal cysts which cause headaches, hydrocephalus, gaze palsy, Parinaud syndrome, and vertigo.[5] Less frequently, patients with symptomatic pineal cysts may present with ataxia, motor and sensory impairment, mental and emotional disturbances, seizures, circadian rhythm disturbances, hypothalamic dysfunction of precocious puberty, and secondary parkinsonism.[6]
Last updated: 12/29/2011
How might symptomatic pineal cysts be treated?
Whether patients with symptomatic pineal cysts should be monitored and/or treated is still unclear. However, surgery is usually recommended for those people with pineal cysts who have hydrocephalus, worsening neurological symptoms, or enlargement of the cyst over time.[7] Treatment may include surgery to remove the cyst, sometimes followed by the placement of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt. As of 1993, an alternative treatment option has been aspiration of the contents of the cyst using ultrasound guidance. More recently, endoscopic procedures have been used.[4]

text: By Ashleigh ViveirosEssays, assignments, lab reports, and a never-ending stream of textbook readings - there must be more to school life than this.In fact, there is - your time in post-secondary education shouldn't just be about, well, education.The university and college years are supposed to be a time in your life when you find yourself, and that means making new friends, trying out different things, and finding out what your passions are.And while studying is an important part of the overall experience, it shouldn't be the only aspect of your life during these long years in school. In fact, getting involved in the non-academic side of student life may be even more beneficial to you in the long run than getting straight As on your report card.Here are just a few of the reasons why you should put down the textbooks every once in a while and go have some fun.Make new friendsThe first year at a new school can be rough, especially if you're in a new city. And since it's rare that you'll be in all the same classes with all the same people, it's important to find other ways to make friends and stave off first-year loneliness. By joining a school group or team, you're guaranteeing yourself some new social connections with like-minded people that might make the difference between a year of misery and a year of fun.Already have a group of friends to fall back on? It's still important to make those post-secondary acquaintances. The wider your network is now, the more connections you'll have once you finally jump into the workforce. You never know who might be able to point you in the right direction when you're looking for a job.Take a breakThe homework load in university and college can be insane. Sometimes it's tempting to just lock yourself away from the world to get everything done. But is a higher grade really worth it if you have burn yourself out to get it?More often than not, having something aside from schoolwork to look forward to each week - a photography club meeting, a basketball practice - can actually make you a better student. Just a few hours away from that stack of assignments will clear your head and allow you to come to back refreshed and raring to go.But just as too much studying can be detrimental to your overall well-being, you shouldn't let your extracurricular involvement take over your life. Extracurricular activities are meant to complement academics, so your grades shouldn't suffer because you're too busy doing other things. It's all about balance.Make a differenceLet's face it, as a student you're probably spending more time at school than anywhere else. It's like a second home, and, as such, don't you want to help make it the best place it can be? So don't just complain about the cafeteria's lack of microwaves; join the student association and do something about it. If you're going to be there for a few years anyway, you might as well lend a hand and leave a noticeable mark on your campus.Beef up the ol' résuméDepending on your program, a diploma may not be enough to get you the job you want after school. For example, a bachelor of arts is a good start towards a journalism career, but unless you have some clippings to show potential employers, you're pretty much screwed.This is where getting involved in career-related activities can help you get a foot in the door of whatever career you're aiming for. You want to be school counsellor? Volunteer with your school's peer support program. A teacher? Become a tutor.These activities will look good on a résumé, show future employers you're serious about your career path, and allow you to figure out just what you want to do after graduation.Who are you?Imagine this: you're at a job interview and the employer is looking over your résumé, which perfectly outlines all your work experience, education, awards, and skills ... but what about your personality?If you can only define yourself as a student who does homework all of the time, who does that make you when the final bell rings on your post-secondary experience? Employers are looking for people who are well-rounded, both professionally and personally. That means sometimes experience and brains just aren't enough.Similarly, graduate schools also want to see that you're able to balance both school and your personal life. This doesn't mean you have to join every club on campus; just being involved in something is enough to show that you do have a life away from school. And, once you graduate, that life is all there is.Still not convinced? Consider this: what do you think you're more likely to remember 20 years from now about your time in school? Will it be the great mark you got on that torturous English paper? Maybe, but I'm willing to bet the memories of the friends you made and the experiences you had will stick with you a lot longer than the fact you got a B+ instead of just a B.So put down the textbook, back away from the computer, and go get involved.

Four key trends are converging to reshape the loyalty marketing world in 2014. Today's consumers are demanding a variety of choices via fast and seamless global, online and in-store experiences. The rise of the peer-to-peer economy threatens to bypass traditional businesses. Shoppers increasingly recognize that sharing their data should earn them something valuable in return, but loyalty marketers are still fixated on discounts. The resulting commoditization of the value exchange demands an increased emphasis on surprise and delight for program differentiation.
These four trends are driving rapid change, and the loyalty programs that will win big in 2014 are those who mobilize now. Those that don't respond will fall far behind.
Download this whitepaper to discover the converging trends that could potentially threaten your business this year and beyond.

When a person's actions decide the fate of future existence, we call it Karma. When the sum of a company's data is used to improve the future existence of both its customers and itself, we can call it Kimpton.
The boutique hotel chain, long known for delivering personalized experiences, has reincarnated its loyalty program, InTouch, to one that better reflects the kinds of relationships it strives for with its guests. The program, introduced July 16, is called Karma.
Hotel stays still count, but the greater focus now is on interactions and experiences with the hotel – events that actually reinforce an emotional bond. These activities range from what Kimpton calls "good deeds," such as conversing with the hotel via social media, to activities it calls "random acts of Kimpton" – dining at a Kimpton restaurant or renting a Kimpton bicycle. Specifically, it is Kimpton Karma Rewards, and it is an apt example of the mutual benefits that can be derived from using data smartly and responsibly. After surveying its loyalty members two years ago, Kimpton found they put a higher value on experiences, such as its morning coffees, its daily hosted wine hours when guests gather to try new wines, and the ability to travel with pets, than on the points or miles they earned through hotel stays. So Kimpton changed its earnings model.
The more guests participate with the hotel, the higher they progress through its tier system, earning access to a wider spectrum of perks.
"We have to give first in order to get back. We have to be loyal to our guests before we can expect loyalty," Maggie Lang, senior director of guest marketing at Kimpton, told COLLOQUY.
That said, Lang pointed out there is a payoff to such generosity: "There is definitely a strong revenue strategy behind what we are doing."
Her example to COLLOQUY involved an ongoing perk called "Raid the Bar," through which members receive $10 vouchers for use at the mini bar or hotel bar. Members who redeem these vouchers at the hotel bar typically generate $100 in additional spending, 40% north of the average bar bill.
The cherry in that experiential cocktail is the good karma associated with the friends and memories made at the bar. Even better, that good karma actually generates more Karma, because that is the name of the program's earning currency. And so the cycle continues. Pretty clever.
Key to the program working well is that Kimpton gives each hotel and its employees the freedom to delight members as they see fit. Hotel computer screens reveal, along with guest history, whether a prize is recommended for a past good deed. The employee can use his or her discretion to provide that prize, maybe a room upgrade, based on availability and other factors.
This is a spot-on example of mobilizing data in ways that empower every participant to achieve benefits. In turn, the data itself should improve as a result. Based on what it is doing today, I am encouraged to see what Karma becomes in a few years.
Nike is the latest player to take the field in the game of rewarding consumers for fitness activity. There are a plethora of smartphone apps that offer users points for tracking exercise, but Nike upped the ante this week with its "secret" vending machine in New York that doles out branded clothing in exchange for FuelBand points. It appears that the retailing giant is testing the power of fitness-based rewards to engage customers. They'll discover that it works – and not just with customers, but with employees too.
There's nothing but upside for companies that pursue the "triple bottom line" of positive financial results, social payoffs, and environmental action. Today's innovative companies are pursuing this strategy through creative partnerships and the emerging sector of non-transactional loyalty.
Transformative cause marketing offers rewards that motivate people to try a new activity, often with some sort of social or personal health usefulness. These efforts are igniting powerful social change by creating what we call "shared value" — with success for the customer, the organizations involved, and the cause.
In our new whitepaper Triple Play, we detail some of the payoffs. Here are three:
- New revenue. Innovative initiatives drive revenue from new sources. Consider the four-way Canadian partnership between a grocer, a provincial ministry of health, the nonprofit Heart & Stroke Foundation, and the AIR MILES Reward Program. The partnership was designed to battle cardiovascular disease, cancer, and diabetes by encouraging people to eat more fresh produce and low-sodium foods. The Eat Healthy initiative awarded shoppers with AIR MILES reward miles for their healthy food purchases. In addition to creating millions of targeted impressions for the Heart & Stroke Foundation, the grocer saw a significant increase in produce sales.
- Brand halo effect. The Eat Healthy initiative let the both the grocer and AIR MILES show customers a commitment to goals that go beyond the bottom line. Companies have discovered that the visibility of launching a cause-centered program pays off in building loyalty with their customers. We saw this when AIR MILES partnered again with the Heart & Stroke Foundation. This time, the partnership awarded miles for using information resources such a healthy living mobile app, an online risk assessment, and a Heart Smart family e-newsletter. Reaction was phenomenal: customers signed up in droves. Over 14,360 people signed up for the Blood Pressure Action Plan in one month, and 14,078 of them were AIR MILES Collectors. That kind of positive interaction from current customers is powerful.
- Greater employee engagement. Studies show that being part of a company committed to social causes boosts employee morale, productivity and innovation, retention and recruitment. A survey by the San Francisco nonprofit Net Impact found that 53% of workers said that "a job where I can make an impact" was important to their happiness — and 72% of college students said the same thing.
You don't have to be as big as Nike to win at this game. Shared value contributes to your bottom line while also building powerful brand engagement with both customers and employees. Just do it!

Rockland County Executive C. Scott Vanderhoef joined with other county executives and mayors from across New York State in announcing the formation of a bipartisan coalition to address skyrocketing . The members of New York Leaders for Pension Reform announced Thursday they will lead a statewide campaign to ensure state legislators understand the importance to local governments of passing Governor Andrew M. Cuomo's reform plan. The governor's plan would get pension costs under control without reducing retirement benefits for any public employee.
"I strongly support Governor Cuomo's pension reform legislation. Under this proposed reform, new employee contribution rates would increase, bringing much-needed relief to county governments like Rockland," said Vanderhoef, who is one of the Coalition's founding members. "It is vital that the state government address the huge unfunded mandate liability of pensions, which have significantly increased costs to the 62 counties of New York."
Rockland is paying $23 million in pension costs this year compared to $17.9 in 2011.
The Coalition noted pension costs borne by local governments increased from $1.7 billion in 2002 to $12.5 billion in 201, a jump of more than 630 percent. Coalition members pointed out how local pension payments have already significantly reduced localities' ability to fund education, public safety, social services, economic development and other services. They predicted if costs continue to escalate they will result in future severe budget cuts or tax increases.
Gov. Cuomo's plan will create a new tier of pension benefits, Tier 6, for yet-to-be-hired employees who are participating in the state and New York City retirement systems. Existing employees and retirees will be unaffected. The new plan would raise the retirement age for newly hired employees, and exclude overtime from the formula used to calculate the final average salary for pension payments. Additionally, it would provide employees with the option of participating in a defined contribution plan.
Pension costs in Rockland are a significant burden on county government. But the costs trail those of Medicaid, Early Intervention and PreK and Health Care. Rockland's Medicaid costs are $73 million this year and Early Intervention and PreK is running about $50 million.
Coalition members characterized the rise in pension costs as unsustainable and something that needs to be addressed to relieve pressure on taxpayers and local services.

Economic Integration and the Foreign Exchange
AbstractThis paper demonstrates effects of economic convergence processes on the foreign exchange behaviour in a monetary modelling approach. Since the exchange rate represents the relative price of two currencies, commonness of stochastic trends between the fundamental determinants of supply and demand of the underlying monies restricts exchange rate movements to transitory fluctuations. In the spirit of optimal currency areas, this has the potential to serve as a criterion for an all-round integration of two economies. Empirically, such a constellation is found between Australia and New Zealand, whereas diverging trends in money and interest rates characterise the relation of Australia towards the US.

Miley Cyrus continues to ride the wild wave of attention she's received following her MTV VMA performance and the recent release of her new album, Bangerz. The pop star hosted Saturday Night Live over the weekend and caught up with Matt Lauer earlier this morning on The Today Show. Cyrus said that she doesn't go out to intentionally offend people, but that it happens when "people don't understand what you're doing." Lauer then asked how the transition from child performer to adult artist is going for the 20-year old. "I think it's only hard if you're trying to be something you're not," Cyrus answered.
Miley Cyrus' 'Bangerz' and 25 Other Albums You Must Hear This Fall
Cyrus recently found herself in the midst of a feud with Sinead O'Connor, an artist whom she says she admires, but isn't fazed by O'Connor's public condemnation of her behavior. "I get open letters everyday, it's not a new thing for me." The "Wrecking Ball" singer also talked at length about her goals as a performer in addition to the steps that have led her to where she is today, and says she wouldn't change anything. "I can't change anything, I can't go back. I can do a lot of things, but I can't change the past. Anything I can't control, I don't really think about."
When Was Miley Cyrus' Teen Idol Breakout Moment?
Cyrus went on to perform "Can't Stop" and "Wrecking Ball" surrounded by dancers dressed as mushrooms and rainbows, before performing past hit "Party in the U.S.A." At the end of the interview, Cyrus said that she's planning a tour that's set to launch next year and isn't worried about the direction she's going. "I know who I am, and I know that I am an artist," she said. "I put all this time and this effort into my record, and my record is proof of really who I am."

In the wake of the National Security Agency collecting phone records and monitoring internet use, Senator Rand Paul has introduced new legislation.
The Herald Leader states the legislation, which was introduced on Friday, would require a warrant before any government agency could search the phone records of Americans. Paul says the bill is intended to stop the NSA from spying on U.S. citizens.
The paper reports ... Paul called the secret program to collect phone records of Verizon customers quote "an astounding assault on the constitution."

The Connie Award was established by the Containerization & Intermodal Institute in 1972 to recognize individuals that have made extraordinary contributions to the evolution of containerized shipping and intermodalism.
Named for the container, the Connie Award quickly grew in stature as a recognition of achievement and dedication by peers.
The award has gone to an eclectic group — from the heads of railroads and ocean carriers to top government officials, media executives and even to managers within a port authority whose contributions were acknowledged by the industry.
The Connie networking events are a consistent sell-out because of its class reunion atmosphere that makes it a "must" event on everyone's calendar.
There's an annual Connie Award event held in December and includes the awarding of scholarships to midshipmen from Kings Point, the SUNY Maritime College at Fort Schuyler, Rutgers University and other schools. Both Crowley Maritime and New York Container Terminal present annual scholarships at this event.
In 2009, CII presented the prestigious Connie Awards on the West Coast in Long Beach, CA. Due to the overwhelming success and reception of this dinner, CII has made it an annual event also introduced a Midwest Connie dinner in 2011.

NOTL option other than Stone Road
I'm looking for a dinner venue to finish off a day this weekend which will begin with an afternoon wine/cheese tasting at a NOTL winery on Stone Road and then transition to walking around NOTL stores and then dinner.
After reviewing the old posts, I decided on Stone Road Grille. Unfortunately, Stone Road is closed for at least the next week. What would be your next best bet?
Epicurean vs. Peller vs. ???
I've eaten at Hillebrand and Inn on the 20 before so would prefer a place that I haven't been to.
Would prefer not ultra-casual but comfortable with great food is fine.
Price isn't necessarily too much of a concern - but I would like to know that what I am paying for is truly worth the difference in food/service, etc.
I would prefer something in downtown NOTL as I will be walking around the shops just before dinner but choices there seem limited. I am willing to drive to a NOTL winery for dinner if that is the clear winner. Thanks
Epicurean is reliably good and reasonably priced. (It costs more then it seems, though, since dinner portions are not large.) I would consider it to be quite casual.
I've heard very good things about Tony DeLuca, though I found his cooking at his previous venue to be overrated. I haven't been to the Oban place yet.
We had a very good dinner experience at Zee's last summer. (Stone Rd sent us there when they were full.) Other posts indicate this place may not be a sure thing, but we were very happy.
The Gate House is lovely (though I haven't eaten there in many years).
That's about it for the walking area of the town.
We had an extraordinary meal at Peller on one occasion, but we knew someone working there and got some special preps and some comps. Other times it has been fine, but not fabulous. Ditto for Strewn.
The Riverbend Inn is pretty and cozy, and their bar menu was very tasty. I have not sampled the menu from the adjacent dining room.
I don't think the dining rooms at the Vintage Inns are worth the money or bother. The Shaw Cafe is a ripoff.
Treadwell is a talented chef, but I assume this is too far away and I think they are currently closed.
Ended up going to Epicurean. Showed up a bit early for the reservation as the town (as I suspected) was completely dead by 5.15 or so on Sunday evening and there wasn't much more to do other than eat. I didn't realize there was a back section vs. a front section at first and walked by a couple of times before deciding to go in as the ultra casual front section was turning me off. The back section wasn't quite open yet but we were seated. Beware that Epicurean is doing renovations to the back section and it is very cold in the restaurant as a result. They post many signs warning of this though. The one thing that was avoidable is that the side door in the back of the restaurant was used over and over by workers going across the lane to somewhere? It seemed that to preserve the temperature for the patrons it would make more sense to have workers use the front door or a different door as it was also very distracting.
The food was adequate for the price.

Judge Rejects Request to Stop Zelenek Campaign Ad
(Note: Updated from original post)
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A company owned by the husband of 6th District congressional candidate Diane Black failed Thursday to stop campaign advertisements targeting the business.
The Tennessean reported earlier Thursday that the drug testing company Aegis Sciences Corporation, owned by David Black, filed a defamation lawsuit against one of his wife's Republican opponents, Lou Ann Zelenik, to stop Zelenik's campaign ads.
The Associated Press was later told by the office of Davidson County Circuit Court Judge Hamilton Gayden that he denied the request for a restraining order.
The radio and television commercials said the company has received $1 million in state contracts. The video, also posted to Zelenik's campaign website, shows Black handing a large check to a man whose face is blurred. An arrow pointed at him says "hubby."
The lawsuit contended the ads are false and "threaten to irreparably damage Aegis' business."
Gayden said he would have another hearing on the lawsuit after the Aug. 5 primary. He warned Zelenik's attorney that if the commercials are found to be false and malicious, then the damages awarded to Aegis would be greater, according to The Tennessean.
Zelenik's spokesman Jay Heine had said her campaign would not remove the ads and that she would not speak publicly on the lawsuit.
"This is an ethics thing where the ethics of (state) Sen. Diane Black are in serious question," Heine said. "We have decided to aggressively peruse Black's relationship with the company and all of her lobbying on behalf of it."
A message left for Aegis attorney Frank Mosher was not immediately returned to the AP.
Black said in a news release that she couldn't comment on the case, "but I am still confident that Lou Ann's lies and distortions will show voters that she just isn't who she says she is. She may have dodged her lying temporarily, but the truth will eventually catch up with her."
Besides Black and Zelenik, the other GOP candidate in the race is state Sen. Jim Tracy of Shelbyville. They are vying to replace Democratic U.S. Rep. Bart Gordon who announced last year he's retiring after 13 terms.

The recipe I have is a little different, mine calling for 4 egg yokes, but I added 1/4 cup peanut butter to the custard after it was cooked to give it more of a peanut butter taste. It was delicious! I also do not like meringue at all, so I used whipped cream (can use cool whip) to top the pie with and then sprinked the peanut butter/confectioners sugar on top. It was out of this world! If you are a peanut butter lover like I am, you will love this pie! Also, I made my pie with a home made graham cracker crust. This pie is addicting!
Update: MY FIL loved the first piece but said the second was too much. This makes a VERY rich pie. In addition to the pie crust, there is a layer of sugar and peanut butter, then a layer of vanilla pudding, then merginue, then more peanut butter and sugar on top. VERY GOOD but VERY RICH! Not sure I would make again unless someone requests. Probably best saved for a holiday pie. (: Thanks for the post! Original review: This is definitly a labor of love type of recipe! I had a sink full of bowls, pans, spoons, scrapers at the end! My 9 year old picked this recipe all by himself to make for his Pawpaw as a thank you. I was thinking more of a no-bake pie, but he ended up picking this one that used the oven twice. (: Will update on taste, it did make a beautiful pie! Will post a pic, too.
This is an excellent pie for peanut butter lovers but I'll agree with the other reviewers that it is very rich. I love that you make your own custard in this versus a store bought pudding. I am not a an of meringue so I also substituted it for homemade whip cream. By making the whip cream with less sugar it was a great balance to the sugar and salt of the remaining pie. We will make again!
