Calnexin Discriminates between Protein Conformational States and Functions as a Molecular Chaperone In Vitro
Molecular Cell, Volume 4, Issue 3, 1 September 1999, Pages 331-341
Yoshito Ihara, Myrna F Cohen-Doyle, Yoshiro Saito and David B Williams
SummaryAlthough calnexin is thought to function as a molecular chaperone for glycoproteins, a prevalent view is that it cannot distinguish between protein conformational states, binding solely through its lectin site to monoglucosylated oligosaccharides. Using purified components in vitro, calnexin effectively prevented the aggregation not only of glycoproteins bearing monoglucosylated oligosaccharides but also proteins lacking N-glycans, an effect enhanced by ATP. It also suppressed the thermal denaturation of nonglycosylated proteins and enhanced their refolding in conjunction with other cellular components. Calnexin formed stable complexes with unfolded conformers of these proteins but not with the native molecules. Therefore, in addition to being a lectin, calnexin functions as a bona fide molecular chaperone capable of interacting with polypeptide segments of folding glycoproteins.

Extensive features of tight oligosaccharide binding revealed in high-resolution structures of the maltodextrin transport/chemosensory receptor
Structure, Volume 5, Issue 8, 15 August 1997, Pages 997-1015
Florante A Quiocho, John C Spurlino and Lynn E Rodseth
SummaryBackground: Active-transport processes perform a vital function in the life of a cell, maintaining cell homeostasis and allowing access of nutrients. Maltodextrin/maltose-binding protein (MBP; Mr = 40K) is a receptor protein which serves as an initial high-affinity binding component of the active-transport system of maltooligosaccharides in bacteria. MBP also participates in chemotaxis towards maltooligosaccharides. The interaction between MBP and specific cytoplasmic membrane proteins initiates either active transport or chemotaxis. In order to gain new understanding of the function of MBP, especially its versatility in binding different linear and cyclic oligosaccharides with similar affinities, we have undertaken high-resolution X-ray analysis of three oligosaccharide-bound structures.Results: The structures of MBP complexed with maltose, maltotriose and maltotetraose have been refined to high resolutions (1.67 to 1.8 Å). These structures provide details at the atomic level of many features of oligosaccharide binding. The structures reveal differences between buried and surface binding sites and show the importance of hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions, especially those resulting from aromatic residue stacking. Insights are provided into the structural plasticity of the protein, the binding affinity and the binding specificity with respect to α/β anomeric preference and oligosaccharide length. In addition, the structures demonstrate the different conformations that can be adopted by the oligosaccharide within the complex.Conclusions: MBP has a two-domain structure joined by a hinge-bending region which contains the substrate-binding groove. The bound maltooligosaccharides have a ribbon-like structure: the edges of the ribbon are occupied by polar hydroxyl groups and the flat surfaces are composed of nonpolar patches of the sugar ring faces. The polar groups and nonpolar patches are heavily involved in forming hydrogen bonds and van der Waals contacts, respectively, with complimentary residues in the groove. Hinge-bending between the two domains enables the participation of both domains in the binding and sequestering of the oligosaccharides. Changes in the subtle contours of the binding site allow binding of maltodextrins of varying length with similarly high affinities. The fact that the three bound structures are essentially identical ensures productive interaction with the oligomeric membrane proteins, which are distinct for transport and chemotaxis.

Structures of a legume lectin complexed with the human lactotransferrin N2 fragment, and with an isolated biantennary glycopeptide: role of the fucose moiety
Structure, Volume 2, Issue 3, 1 March 1994, Pages 209-219
Yves Bourne, Joël Mazurier, Dominique Legrand, Pierre Rougé, Jean Montreuil, Geneviève Spik and Christian Cambillau
SummaryBackground Lectins mediate cell–cell interactions by specifically recognizing oligosaccharide chains. Legume lectins serve as mediators for the symbiotic interactions between plants and nitrogen-fixing microorganisms, an important process in the nitrogen cycle. Lectins from the Viciae tribe have a high affinity for the fucosylated biantennary N -acetyllactosamine-type glycans which are to be found in the majority of N - glycosylproteins. While the structures of several lectins complexed with incomplete oligosaccharides have been solved, no previous structure has included the complete glycoprotein.Results We have determined the crystal structures of Lathyrus ochrus isolectin II complexed with the N2 monoglycosylated fragment of human lactotransferrin (18 kDa) and an isolated glycopeptide (2.1 kDa) fragment of human lactotransferrin (at 3.3 å and 2.8 å resolution, respectively). Comparison between the two structures showed that the protein part of the glycoprotein has little influence on either the stabilization of the complex or the sugar conformation. In both cases the oligosaccharide adopts the same extended conformation. Besides the essential mannose moiety of the monosaccharide-binding site, the fucose- 1′ of the core has a large surface of interaction with the lectin. This oligosaccharide conformation differs substantially from that seen in the previously determined isolectin I–octasaccharide complex. Comparison of our structure with that of concanavalin A (ConA) suggests that the ConA binding site cannot accommodate this fucose.Conclusions Our results explain the observation that Viciae lectins have a higher affinity for fucosylated oligosaccharides than for unfucosylated ones, whereas the affinity of ConA for these types of oligosaccharides is similar. This explanation is testable by mutagenesis experiments. Our structure shows a large complementary surface area between the oligosaccharide and the lectin, in contrast with the recently determined structure of a complex between the carbohydrate recognition domain of a C-type mammalian lectin and an oligomannoside, where only the non-reducing terminal mannose residue interacts with the lectin.

Add/View Comments (0)Immediate glycosylation of Sindbis virus membrane proteins
Bartholomew M. Sefton
Tumor Virology Laboratory The Salk Institute Post Office Box 1809 San Diego, California 92112 USA
- The mechanisms by which the membrane proteins of Sindbis virus are initially glycosylated during growth of the virus in chick cells was studied. The experiments suggest strongly that the two viral glycoproteins are glycosylated before release from the polysome, and that this glycosylation involves transfer of a large 1800 dalton oligosaccharide to the polypeptide chains. The donor of the oligosaccharide is most probably a lipid.

Ubiquitous Chip (The)
12 Ashton Lane, Glasgow, United Kingdom G12 8SJMap
+44 141 334 5007
email: email@example.com
Neighborhood: Hillhead
The jungle-like cobbled courtyard of this converted mews stable provides the most atmospheric dining area in Glasgow. The Chip has been a landmark in contemporary Scottish cuisine for almost 40 years without ever falling out of fashion or actually serving chips. The awards this place has won are too numerous to delve into, but it would be a sin to ignore the Red M bestowed by Michelin. The wine cellar is astounding, as is the choice of 150 malt whiskeys. The seafood is exemplary, and it would be difficult to find a better restaurant for game.

I am certain that my biggest mistakes in life and the ones that cost me the most were the outcome of trying to make something work out despite the evidence that no amount of effort would make it work out. I would prefer not to point out all of my big life errors in a blog, but I bet if you take a short walk down your own personal memory lane, you will find that staying in a situation too long and trying too hard did not always win you the prize either. What constitutes trying too hard? Staying at a job trying for a promotion or a raise in an underpaid job while tolerating an angry and unfair boss who was likely never going to promote you, or staying in a dying relationship while trying with all your heart to make it work. These efforts have probably cost you years, money, stress or unhappiness. A lot of misery is born from trying and failing. And people are often told to keep on trying as if that will be the recipe for success.
But what about when trying does not succeed? What about the idea of cutting your losses?
I am not suggesting that people should give up easily when trying to attain a challenging goal. I am thinking, though, that there are many times when people pick an unrealistic goal and then try to make it work despite the bad odds. This can lead to feeling very bad about oneself. If you are depressed, you can be prey to these errors of decision-making. A depressed brain causes people to pessimistically see the worst possible outcome and causes them to believe all negative outcomes are their fault. They tend to devalue their talents and abilities.
But those traits might also lead to success if you use the brain of depression to your advantage.
The ability to identify what could go wrong and plan to meet the challenges along the way is not the typical pattern of the optimist. Pragmatic realism (seeing the possibility of failure) is more the bailiwick of the pessimist. But, think about it: preparation leads to more success than merely hoping for a good outcome.
Believing you do not have what it takes to succeed might lead you to pick more realistic goals or seek advice more readily.
The challenge with depression is correctly targeting your anticipation of failure toward adequate realistic preparation. And realism must extend to realistic appraisal of your part in an outcome. You must see your successes as an outcome of planning, preparation and execution: things you actually did to achieve the positive outcome. Walk down that memory lane for a bit. When did you work on something and it turned out okay? When did put in one more bit of effort and got a good outcome? (If you need help with that one, ask a friend or family member to remind you. One problem of depression is forgetting the good stuff.)
Please don't think I am telling you to make half-hearted effort or to just quit when you stumble. There is great value in persistence (a blog for another day). But trying when there is little or no chance of success is not a good plan. It will lead you to feeling worse about yourself. (I know someone will object here, asking about why I don't value trying 'against all odds' or the force of determination. But bear in mind I am not discussing the 'only-one-last-chance' desperate circumstances. I am discussing regular life goals: relationships, finances, jobs, education…) One way I learned about 'tactical retreat" (quitting before you ruin yourself) was taking a look at the difference between successful entrepreneurs and wannabes. Most successful 'self-made' people make LOTS of mistakes. They just notice them faster and quit going down the dead end path so that they can try something different. They don't keep trying to hammer that square peg into the round hole. You only beat yourself down when you stay with the person who is abusive to you. You hurt your prospects for development when you stay in the job that does not use your talents. You do not define yourself by waiting for someone else to recognize your talents while you slog away at something that does not use your gifts.
So make just one small effort to reverse this trend of sticking it out to your detriment.

Dachau survivor and liberator meet 6 decades later
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The way Ernie Gross and Don Greenbaum laugh and tell jokes with the ease of old friends, it's easy to assume the dapper octogenarians have known each other forever.
In reality, they only met a few months ago. Their familiarity doesn't come from shared memories of a childhood playground or a high school dance but a far darker place: Both men were at the Dachau concentration camp on the day its 30,000 prisoners were liberated by American soldiers in 1945.
Greenbaum, 87, and Gross, 83, don't think they met that day in Dachau but nevertheless share a bond. They met after Gross, who lives in Philadelphia, saw a mention in a local newspaper last November about Greenbaum, a Philadelphia native now living in suburban Bala Cynwyd....

A studio set is engulfed in fire at Universal Studios in Los Angeles, Sunday June 1, 2008. A large fire tore through a back lot at Universal Studios early Sunday, destroying a set from "Back to the Future," the King Kong exhibit and thousands of videos and reels in a vault. (AP Photo/Mike Meadows) **MAGS OUT**
Universal City, Calif (AP) A Los Angeles County Fire Official says the fire that ripped through sets and attractions at Universal Studios has been ruled an accident.
Capt. Mike Brown said Monday that a preliminary investigation has found that the fire that erupted about 4:30 a.m. Sunday was an accident. Brown has not revealed the specific cause.
The fire began on a streetscape featuring New York brownstone facades at the 400-acre property.
It then destroyed a King Kong attraction, the courthouse square from "Back To The Future" and a streetscape featured in "Spider-Man 2" and "Transformers."

Stephen Levinson
HBO, 'Entourage' Team Go to Washington
Variety is reporting that Wahlberg, Doug Ellin and Stephen Levinson, the successful team behind the Emmy-winning comedy 'Entourage,' are working on a new, untitled series that follows the relationship between a political aide and his boss, the former President of the United States.
The script comes from Ben Scherwin, who will also serve as co-executive producer alongside Wahlberg, Ellin and Levinson.
Michael Pitt in talks for Boardwalk Empire
I'm crazy for HBO, and one of the shows I'm really looking forward to is Boardwalk Empire, a pilot executive produced by Martin Scorsese (who's also directing), Mark Wahlberg, Stephen Levinson, and Terence Winter (who's also penning the pilot).
Based on the Nelson Johnson book Boardwalk Empire: The Birth, High Times, and Corruption of Atlantic City, the project chronicles the 1920s origins of Atlantic City, New Jersey. From what I've read, it sounds like a mix of The Departed, The Sopranos and Goodfellas -- all favorites of mine. And the cast they've got lined up couldn't be better.
Steve Buscemi plays Nucky Johnson, a businessman who runs a liquor distribution ring at the beginning of Prohibition. Michael Pitt (pictured) is in negotiations to play Jimmy Darmody, a bright, young, ruthless WWI veteran who serves as a flunky for Nucky, but yearns for more power.
HBO signs writer to Scorsese's Boardwalk Empire
HBO orders more new shows
The network has picked up a one-hour comedy from producer Linda Bloodworth-Thomason (Designing Women) called 12 Miles Of Bad Road. The show will star Lily Tomlin as the matriarch of a rich Texas family. Add in the family real estate business and a collection of relatives and hilarity will ensue, hopefully. The idea almost sounds like a Dallas spoof. With Tomlin on board, it will certainly be worth a look. Look for Gary Cole, Mary Kay Place, and Leslie Jordan to also appear.
Entourage creator to make Wall Street series for HBO
If you like Entourage, then you might be interested in the new show that Doug Ellin is developing for HBO, which is being described by the question "What if the Entourage boys grew up?"
The show will be a half hour, and will focus on the lives of fortysomething guys on Wall Street. Ellin and co-producer Stephen Levinson got the idea when they realized that friends of theirs that worked on Wall Street were making over $40 million a year. Yikes!
But the show doesn't have a title yet. Readers, any ideas? Maybe something like Entourage, only more Wall Street/NYC-ish?

Family Guy: Meet The Quagmires
by Brett Love, posted May 21st 2007 11:00AM
(S05E18) And so ends a short, inconsistent, Family Guy season. I don't know if we should chalk it up to Seth MacFarlane being spread too thin with American Dad and The Winner to watch over, or just the show coming up on 100 episodes. Something just wasn't quite right at Family Guy HQ this season though.

White Paper | January 17, 2014
The Design Of Ultra Narrow-Band Amplifiers Using Small Signal Varactor Up-Converters For ESM, ECM, ECCM, And ELINT Applications
Source: Planar Monolithics Industries, Inc.By Dr. Alfred I. Grayzel, Dr. Ashok (Ash) K. Gorwara, Paul Kuhn, Planar Monolithics Industries, Inc.
A method is presented in this paper for realizing tunable amplifiers with bandwidths of less than 0.5%; without the use of superconductors and cryogenic cooling. This method uses a small signal varactor up-converter to achieve these ultra narrow bandwidths. The equivalent circuit for the up-converter is presented as well as the circuit configuration of the narrow band negative resistance amplifier. The design and experimental results are presented for a 0.5% bandwidth negative resistance amplifier at 800 MHz; using this unique circuit design. These devices and circuits can be used for electronic warfare applications such as surveillance, electronic reconnaissance, jamming and frequency hopping.

I'm rooting for this, but fear the resolution loss will outweigh the benefit of refocus. For a few images, it is fairly easy to apply blur in photoshop anyway... best application would be for HDSLR where the sheer number of frames precludes PS blur in post.

This Labor Day, gas prices on Long Island, and across the country, will be the highest they've ever been.
As of Thursday afternoon, average gas prices on Long Island sat at the precipice of $4 per gallon, about 6.7 cents higher than the same day last year.
Gas in New York City – typically much higher than here on Long Island – was only a few cents more expensive, averaging $4.06 per gallon. The national average currently sits at $3.80 per gallon, 18 cents more than the same day last year and 29 cents higher than just one month ago.
Analysts for gasoline price website GasBuddy.com said gas prices in 45 states will be at the highest points they've ever been for a Labor Day weekend this year. Only gas prices in Alaska, Colorado, Montana, New Mexico and Wyoming will be below record levels.
"Although the end of summer driving season usually sends retail gas prices downward, they've got a long way to go before prices fall back to 'tolerable,'" said Patrick DeHaan, senior petroleum analyst for GasBuddy.com.
Hurricane Isaac bears some of the blame for the record high levels, forcing Gulf Coast refineries and others in its path to close. Price increases also peaked much earlier this spring, causing prices to fall well below Memorial Day when they typically reach their highest levels. Gas prices then trended back up as a result.
Experts say if there's a silver lining, it's that gas prices will likely decrease this weekend and then continue downward.
"Contrary to popular belief that prices always rise during major holiday weekends, analysis of Labor Day weekend prices from 2001 through 2011 shows that the national average price of gas actually declined in 10 of the last 11 years," said Gregg Laskoski, another senior petroleum analyst for GasBuddy.com.

Does anyone have a position solution for me? I'm definitely shooting for the moon but will settle for some stars in between. Eventually I will obtain the moon as I become more experienced in using
UML and XML with attended certifications, if not actual work. I'm not worried about that. But for now, I am a Java baby, even a computer science baby.
I also have a good financial background working with options, margins, holding the series 7, which covers bonds, stocks, options, regulations, finacial analysis, and margins. I'm also able and eager to easily learn many other finance realms. And I am keeping a website,
that holds my resume and where I can focus some of my practice work in Java development. It'll give a little more of an idea of what I can do, technology permitting. Along with the SCJ2D, I am working on that website often, so visit every now again to see my growth.
Right now as of 01/23/00 the website is just using
sub 2.2 specs and JavaMail with ultralight XML. I hope to implement the "web container" architecture of the Servlet 2.2 spec maximizing the use of a deployment descriptor, and declarative security for a compact easy to maintain lightweight web application. That is when I have greater access to technology (i'm putting my computer on the web soon). I'm always working and learning. I would love my J2EE education to be sponsored, but I will continue to take matters into my own hands by default. I would like to at least take a step closer, amid all of this work, towards my goal.

So glad to hear Mardock Scramble: The Second Combustion will be on my shelf in just 18 long, arduous weeks. The books and 1st movie are so good it's worth the wait, as excruciating as it may be
As for Blue Exorcist, it definitely would have sold alot more if it had the dub, especially since it was actually announced, had no dub been announced i think the sub-only would have sold more (probably still not dub release-type numbers but more than it did) |

I requested for an early check in and the host agreed. However, upon reaching, my friends and I spent an hour walking around to look for the place in the cold without having the opportunity to change into warmer clothes because we expected to change upon check in. It was difficult to find the place and the host was uncontactable. It was disappointing cause she should expect the time of our arrival since she arranged our (email hidden)e replied after an hour saying that she sent an email stating that previous guests requested for a late check-out but after checking my mail, i realized it was sent on the day of my flight so I did not receive it.
After checking in at 1pm, i realized that the place was in a complete mess due to the previous occupants. All of us were truly disgusted by it but since we checked in early, we told the host about it and she said that she would ask someone to clear the place. However, even at 4, which was 1 hours after the supposed check in time, the place was not clean and we had to clear our place. This really put us off because it was the first day of our holiday and we had to encounter such problems.
Furthermore, on the last few nights, my friend emailed the host to request for transportation to the airport but the host did not reply. In the end we had to seek help from the hotel which was in the same building.
The place was nice but small. I would have considered staying there if it weren't for so many mishaps to happen. We would not be visiting this accommodation again.
We agreed the early check in for ZIqian because the previous guest told us they would leave early, but the previous guest suddenly changed their check out time , and we just emailed Ziqian for the change once we got informed. Anyway we tried to arranged Ziqian to check in around noon time slightly after the previous guest left even before the cleaning. We told Ziqian that we would clean the room asap, but our staff also suddenly got something urgent,so we could not finish the cleaning before they came back, and we felt so sorry about that, therefore offer some discount because of that, We also told Ziqian that please don't clean it by yourself,and we tried our best to arrange someone else to clean it afterwards~ We feel sorry again, and will improved our service for our next guest in the future,we hope our future guest will also refer to our other good review as well
It was overall a very pleasant & extremely accessable stay @ Wendy's apartment which only take approximately less than 5 mins walk from subway station. Didn't have a chance to meet Wendy however her husband Mook came to guide us and ensure on our necessities, also given us some tourist attraction around the location. Room was clean and well prep for our 9 days stay in Seoul. Wendy & Mook was very prompt in replying all my doubts during my stay. Overall, it was a great experience and well-spent in Seoul. A big thank you to both Wendy and Mook, take care and will definitely be back again on my next trip with you. =D
nice place. clean. very near subway.
It's a clean and cozy apartment near subway station. it's convenient to go anywhere by subway.
Mook and Wendy were helpful. Not only gave me clear instruction to the apartment, but also helped to sort the ski information.
A nice place to stay
Got the wifi egg if you travel in Seoul.. super convenient!! You can rent it from Wendy!
Thank you
Mook and Wendy
This was my first time using airbnb, but Wendy made the process smooth and simple, which was very much appreciated.
The apartment was as pictured, and detailed information about the appliances (washer, hot water heater, etc...) was clearly given. Wifi was fantastic. For me, one of the best things about this place was the location, especially the proximity to the nearest subway station and how easy it was to get taxis directly in front of the building, since it's on a main street.
We had a great time staying in this cute little room. It was quite clean and spacious and whilst we didn't get a chance to meet Wendy, we did meet her husband who helped us get checked in and set up promptly.
The apartment had all the amenities you could want - the washing machine was a lifesaver (and clear instructions were provided in English) and the kitchen had lots of utensils and cooking supplies, and the trash was disposed off promptly every day.
The location is pretty convenient, only a few minutes from the subway and located on a major train line for easy access to lots of popular areas.
All in all, a great place and would definitely stay here again!
The apartment was as described and was pretty spacious for two people. I was unable to meet Wendy, however she was quick to reply to emails and was very helpful.
Clear instructions were left to use the laundry machine, which was great during our 6 night stay. The kitchen had utensils for us to use and our trash was also picked up on a daily basis. The apartment was clean and only a minute away from Sangwangsimni subway station. I would definitely stay with Wendy again!
I really enjoyed my stay at Wendy Lee's place. She had a last minute business meeting so she couldn't pick me up at the subway station but she sent me an email to tell me how to get to the place. It's a good thing I had access to the internet, otherwise I would have had to rent an hotel.
Don't be disapointed when you walk out of the subway station: you'll encounter many small garage shops and nothing much, on your way to the place. But only a few blocks away before that, you'll find a lot of things: even a McDonald! And a couple of blocks passed the apartment, there is an amazing local market and the immense fashion shopping district.
There is cable TV, with some English channels. The AC and WIFI works perfectly, the grape soap in the shower is amazing (Where did you get that?!). There is a nice kitchen with the basics, a laundry machine. The bed is a bit hard, but I find that's a common thing in South Korea!
really an awesome place to stay in Seoul.
the apartment is tidy and modern, also near from the metro system ( which takes 5 mins by walking) to reach many spots in Seoul.
Wendy answered the phone and messages fast and patiently, and i really had great time in the city.
it'll definitely be one of my top choices to stay next time to Seoul.
highly recommend!
We stayed in one of Wendy's apartments, although not the exact same one as the picture as it turns out. The layout was the other way round to the picture, but the furnishings etc. were exactly as the photos show. Everything is included, just bring your toothbrush. If you are light sleeper, bring earplugs as the walls can be quite thin as we could always hear the family next door. We didn't get to meet Wendy but she was very prompt in replying to our queries. We met her husband though, who picked us up at the train station and showed us around the apartment. The Sangwangsimni train station (on line 2) was about a 1 minute walk from the apartment building so very convenient. But the ride on the subway to the airport takes about 1 hour 30 mins, so plan ahead! There are a lot of little local eateries about 10-15 mins walk from the station. But as you are staying in the centre area of Seoul, you are only like 15-20 minutes from the tourist places. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend to anyone.

The tech industry has a gender problem.
Let's consider this: Women comprise only about a quarter of all employees at tech behemoths Apple, Google, Facebook, Oracle and Microsoft. When it comes to launching tech ventures, the situation only gets worse: Just 10 percent of high-growth tech company founders are women.
Join the Discussion | |
Post a Comment |
Women make up a significant portion of the tech-consumer market — so it makes little sense that there is such disconnect in the professional spectrum. The benefits of a diversified workforce are numerous, especially considering that many American women are highly active on the Internet and social networking sites. Looking at the big picture of the market, Nielsen estimates that women's spending power in America ranges from $5 trillion to $15 trillion, and Fleishman-Hillard Inc. predicts that women will control two-thirds of consumer wealth over the next ten years.
The good news is that things appear to be changing. New data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics suggests that women are beginning to catch up with the divide. Part of the improvement might stem from popular, media-savvy and powerful female leaders in tech, such as Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer.
But that's only one part of the equation. There is an entire movement of women who defy the statistics and the odds and follow their dreams of success by founding tech companies of their own, and many times, these entrepreneurs are strong advocates for other women in the field.
Below, we take a look at some key pieces of advice from women who have found success in the tech sector:
1. Create a Dream Team of Uniquely Skilled Colleagues
Surround yourself with people that have the skills and experience you do not have. In this process, honesty is the key: Know what you do not know and look for people that can fill the gaps where you lack. The ultimate goal is to create a dream team where people can learn from each other and where each person's contribution is unique and invaluable to hitting the common targets.
Joanna Weidenmiller, co-founder and CEO of 1-Page, an enterprise platform that gamifies hiring
2. Utilize Mentors and Support Networks

Getting a mentor and forming a support network is key. Entrepreneurs will face many obstacles, and it's this group of "trusted advisors" that can help provide outside ideas, advice and guidance on overcoming challenges, as well as help build confidence as you move forward. Groups like Springboard Enterprises, the Dell Women's Entrepreneur Network and the Dell Founders Club (for funded founders and CEOs) are all great options to finding the right supporting network.
Ingrid Vanderveldt, entrepreneur-in-residence at Dell, launched the Dell Center for Entrepreneurs and Dell Innovators Credit Fund
3. Be Strategic About Time Management and Embrace Hard Work
Be strategic about where you choose to spend your time. Engage in an activity only if it truly adds significant value to the business and your contribution is critical. Otherwise, happily delegate/outsource. Don't be afraid of hard work, especially when you are first starting out. And if you join a team, the more valuable you are, the more responsibility you will be asked to take on.
Fran Hauser, president of digital, style & entertainment group at Time Inc.
4. Trust Your Intuition and Build Something Unique
I think women in tech have strong intuition on digital behavior and emotional triggers that translates to rich online experiences. My piece of advice for women tech entrepreneurs is to trust your gut rather than following industry standards, and build something unique. I admire and respect many of the large, consumer-facing platforms that have been built in the last ten years; however, sometimes it is just so obvious they were built by men and for how men like to shop, organize or filter.
Shauna Mei, founder and CEO of AHAlife.com, a luxury ecommerce platform
5. Embrace Curiosity
Empower yourself and look for companies that are willing to empower you as a young employee. The fact that you're just starting out should mean very little in terms of your ability to create huge value and have significant impact. One way to do this is to ask yourself: What if the success of the entire company depended on me? What would I do then? What problems would I need to solve and what opportunities would I pursue?
It's also critical to pursue your own curiosity. Curiosity should be one of the most important factors in making a decision about whether to accept a job offer. Are you curious about this industry, the company culture or the problem the company is solving? What about the specific people you'll be working with? Even if the benefit of this curiosity isn't obvious up front, it will likely lead you to professional greatness and fulfillment down the road.

TERRE HAUTE — Almost nobody believed Michael Menser. I mean, really believed.
Well, his coach and teammates did. But I'm reasonably certain that none of the other beat writers at the 2001 Missouri Valley Conference Tournament pre-tourney interview session even bothered to repeat Menser's comment in print.
"If we put a good streak together," the Indiana State Sycamore guard said, "we can win it."
By "it," Menser didn't mean just ISU's first-round game. He meant the whole tournament — a feat that no Sycamore men's basketball team had accomplished since Larry Bird and Co. in 1979.
Surely, skeptics presumed, Menser had to say that. Why else would he think the Sycamores had a chance?
After all, they ended the season by losing six of their last eight games. They'd even lost their home finale — Senior Night, for cryin' out loud, for Menser, forward Matt Renn and three teammates. They'd fallen from first place to a tie for fourth.
Thus, ISU became the No. 5 seed in the MVC Tournament at St. Louis, and no team seeded so low had ever won the championship.
Their dream of reaching the Big Dance had unraveled. Or so most people thought.
Thank goodness, Michael, Matt and the Sycamores kept believing. They did exactly what Menser said was possible. They put a good streak together, defeating higher-seeded rivals Southern Illinois, Creighton and Bradley to win the conference tournament. Then they beat 13th-ranked Oklahoma in the NCAA South Regional at Memphis.
ISU fans and Hauteans gained a Rolodex of memories from a championship season that ISU hasn't matched since. Some fans would say their favorite was Menser's 32-point performance against top-seeded Creighton in the MVC Tournament, giving ISU a rousing 87-74 victory. In voting announced this week, Missouri Valley fans chose Menser's exploit as the sixth-greatest moment in the history of "Arch Madness" — the league's nickname for its St. Louis-based tourney, where the current Sycamore squad plays Illinois State in Friday's first round.
My most vivid image from that season is far less obvious.
It occurred half an hour after ISU stunned heavily favored Oklahoma 70-68 in overtime at Memphis. The arena, called The Pyramid, was almost empty. Fans left, happy or dejected. The shocked Sooners were gone. NCAA staffers crunched numbers and stapled together statistical booklets in a computer room. Writers and sportscasters cranked out their stories from the media bullpen. After interviewing players and coaches and analyzing the game stats, I decided to take a walk to gather my thoughts. Strolling back into the now-quiet arena, I spotted Menser sitting, alone, in a courtside chair, sipping on bottled water, gazing across the court.
And smiling.
I didn't interrupt his moment. But a breathless, hurried team manager soon did. "Michael," he said, urgently, "everybody's on the bus." Menser grabbed his equipment bag and dutifully followed him out to The Pyramid parking lot.
I'm not sure what Menser had been thinking about, as he sat in that chair. Knowing Michael, if I asked him today — nine years later — he'd probably say something typically gracious like, "Oh, just my coaches and teammates, and everything we achieved together." Perhaps. But I'm guessing a few images popped up, too.
Like 10,000 students, Hauteans and ISU fans storming the Hulman Center court after he hit two 3-pointers in the final 8.5 seconds of a milestone victory over the Indiana Hoosiers that November.
Or taking in the scenery at San Juan, Puerto Rico — and winning a couple of games — in an early season tournament.
Or watching Renn — the other half of ISU's senior dynamic duo — play in pain, night after night, while wearing a brace to protect the stress fracture in his lower left leg.
Or learning the finer points of the college game – and the value of a thick skin — from Coach Royce Waltman.
Or enduring two last-second losses to Southern Illinois on improbable buzzer-beater shots by Saluki archnemesis Jermaine Dearman.
Or getting revenge on Dearman's team with a 67-64 Sycamore win in the MVC tourney's first round.
Or that 32-point explosion against Creighton in the second round at St. Louis. Down 15-12, Menser injured his shooting elbow in a collision with the Bluejays' Ryan Sears. Menser made a rare trip to the bench, resting briefly because his right hand "felt like it was burning." The pain subsided, but that fire never left. He hit 9 of 18 field goals, including five 3-pointers from so far off he could see the East St. Louis city limits. The clincher came just before halftime.
He stood at halfcourt, dribbling away the half's final 35 seconds. Sears, his defender, watched, patiently waiting for Menser to pass or drive. He did neither. When the clock reached :02, Menser pulled up and launched a 27-footer that swished the net. Creighton went into the lockerroom trailing 41-36 and never recovered. "That last one was worth a lot more than 3 points," Waltman said of Menser's shot. The Bluejays were done.
Or cutting down the MVC Tournament nets after beating Bradley 69-63 in the title game.
Or knowing his family drove from their hometown of Batesville to witness every Sycamore game.
Or maybe Michael sat in that chair at Memphis, simply reliving the dramatic win over Oklahoma just minutes before. Teammate Kelyn Block got three teeth knocked out, and surprised everyone by returning to lead ISU in an overtime win that made the front page of the next morning's New York Times.
From Michael's vantage point, the season's highlights were a lot to absorb. No wonder he sat down and took a few minutes to comprehend it all.
It was pretty unbelievable, even for a believer.

This was a good one. I thought the format of the book was interesting and several story-telling techniques were well used. Specifically, the author's treatment of spoken words as physical objects such as jewells from Hitler's mouth or as Rosa "...seemed to collect the words in her hand,pat them together, and hurl them across the table." And on page 262 & 263 we see Liesel's words have a physical impact on the mayor's wife.

I also liked when Max had just arrived and Hans asked if everything was good (meaning his bed) and "The reply floated from his mouth, then molded itself like a stain to the ceiling. Such was his feeling of shame." And when Max first awoke, saw Leisel and said "'Please.'... His voice held on, as if possessing fingernails. He pressed it into her flesh."

Friday's order may prevent the Obama administration from enforcing the contraception mandate against the Little Sisters of the Poor, but it also may have just won the administration's case.
The Family Research Council recently presented a paper positing that the problem with abortion is that women are just having too much sex. It's part of a trend: Increasingly, anti-choicers are dropping the pretense that they're motivated by "life" and admitting that their efforts are about controlling women's sexuality.
The unsigned order means the religiously affiliated nonprofit does not need to comply with the mandate while its legal challenge proceeds.
The law, which reinstated restrictions lifted by the Obama administration, violates the state's "single-subject" rule.
This week, Chicago launches a new initiative to up the number of teens who get vaccinated for HPV, a Spanish study makes headlines about how rich people supposedly have better sex, and a New York Times op-ed urges safe sex for seniors.
