Taylor Jungmann did not have his best outing in Lubbock, as the Raiders managed to get the ball up into the wind more often than the Longhorns did for a 12-5 victory. That's not meant to take any credit away from Tech; both teams had the benefit of the conditions while at the plate, and Texas failed to take advantage. Tech jumped out to a 5-0 lead through 2 innings and never looked back. The series resumes tonight at 6:30 PM, pushed back because of continuing winds. Cole Green will take the hill and try to get Texas back on track against Tech righty Bobby Doran.
Apologies for failing to get an open thread up for today's game, but real life got in the way for both of us. Regardless, the bats came alive for Texas today as the Longhorns sent Nebraska packing 13-3. Brandon Workman scattered 7 hits in a complete game effort. Texas next plays Tuesday evening at 6 against Rice in Austin, the rubber match of the non-conference rivals' three-game season series.

Culture, Religiosity and Female Labor Supply
AbstractDoes culture affect female labor supply? In this paper, we address this question using a recent approach to measuring the effects of culture on economic outcomes, i.e. the epidemiological approach. We focus on migrants, who come from different cultures, but who share a common economic and institutional set-up today. Controlling for various individual characteristics including parental human capital as well as for current economic and institutional setup, we find that female employment rates in 1970 in a female migrant's province of origin affects her labor supply behavior in 2008. We also show that it is the female employment rates and not male in the province of origin in 1970 that affects the current labor supply behavior. We also extend the epidemiological approach to analyze the effects of religion on female labor supply. More specifically, we use a proxy of parental religiosity, i.e. share of party votes in 1973 elections in Turkey to study female labor supply in 2008. Our findings indicate that female migrants from provinces that had larger (smaller) shares of the religious party votes in 1973 are less (more) likely to participate in the labor market in 2008. An extended model where both cultural and religiosity proxies are included shows that culture and religiosity have separately significant effects on female labor supply behavior.

The POWER test consists of four basic tests. Each test is a scientifically valid test. It is recommended that five minutes of static stretching, using techniques approved by the Board, be completed prior to each test. A five minute rest is recommended between each test with a fifteen minute rest before the 1.5 mile run. The tests will be given in the following sequence with a rest period between each test.
1. Sit and Reach Test
2. 1 Minute Sit-Up Test
3. 1 Repetition Maximum Bench Press
4. 1.5 Mile Run
What Are the Standards?
• The applicant must pass every test.
• The required performance to pass each test is based upon age (decade) and sex. While the absolute performance is different for the eight categories, the relative level of effort is identical for each age and sex group. All recruits are being required to meet the same percentile range in terms of their respective age/sex group. The performance requirement is that level of physical performance that approximates the 40th percentile for each age and sex group.

A 5-step methodology to sell creative ideas with Social Media
Posted on June 25th 2012
When it comes to "creativity", some investors and clients can suddenly believe that they're facing intuitive people with beautiful and crazy tactics, but that it's not "real" marketing. This is probably the consequence of a century of client/advertising agency relationship: on one side, you had the account executives, the serious guys, who sometimes invited the funny guys aka the creatives, to pitch ideas and better entertain the decision-makers.
But this time is dead. Fun is not really enough in tense markets, and in the meantime, the traditional rational guys actively look for new ways to convince and reinsure. Using Social Media is naturally a great step forward: listening is a support activity for diverse marketing objectives (understanding a dynamic consumer journey, following communities and getting some insights related to a brand or to an interest); whereas "engaging" is one of the most sought action for companies. At the end, Social Media allows us to measure, because we now leave digital footprints anywhere.
So what?
The connection between "out of the box thinking" and "providing rational argument" can be more and more structured, thanks to creativity marketing practice. The idea is not to oppose 2 groups of people, but to apprehend an objective in a wider perspective. Social Media broke static tools; for instance, market studies are worth it if they're used as a simple snapshop, but they need to be extended with online conversations' analysis, online test groups, to better refine and "get" what really matters: cultures. Engagement programmes are fantastic dynamic compasses, but they sometimes need to be plugged in to real life, handled by people who are not all corporate marketers but great experts in their fields.
How to better sell creative ideas then? Well, we had a conversation with ESCP Europe MMK students last Friday based on this presentation:
Join the debate and let's talk about this 5-step methodology!

I got this hotel based off a bid for north las vegas, which this is about 25 minutes away from where I anticipated being. This is the the lowest of the low 3 star hotels. The location is very sketchy, the surrounding neighborhood is very awful, and I didn't feel safe even going to a gas station near there.

Off the strip location was nice and good a south facing room with a strip view. This hotel was great for the price and I got well more then expected.
August 9, 2014
it's definately not a 3 star rated hotel,more of a motel 6,or econo lodge type of setting with slot machines inside...i wished i had researched the hotel more before i committed my hard earned money to stay there for the 3 nights...when you go on vacation you expect to be pampered just a little bit,but i had to basically do everything myself,I'm in a freaking wheelchair for the record they did'nt offer any type of room service,bell staff,etc..management was notified they called back and said they don't offer any assistance of any kind as they don't have a bell person on site..for the casino to be called a 3 star resort with hardly any amenities(free internet is built into the hotel's resort fees and you have to make sure that they take the charges off your hotel bill before you leave otherwise you'll be charged twice!!!! that's a no go for me...i definately won't be staying there again and will be telling friends not to either!!!!! ...

Look for chicken bacon on clearance at Walmart. I found them for $1 box and used the $1.50 on 3 coupon to make them .50 each! Cheap and easy lunch or dinner for hubby when I'm away on business and I plan to take a couple for lunch while in town.

Whats up guys. My names Zack. Im 19, and I live in West Hollywood. Im looking for an accountability partner. Im just at the beginning of my journey of social and seduction mastery and this chapter of transformation of my life, and Im looking for some regular social support in the form of an accountability partner.
Los Angeles accountability partner search
What Im looking for is another dude with a good attitude and positive personality to swap a daily phone call or email update on each others goals, to keep accountability, momentum, and support up. If youre interested, you and I will send each other an email with our pick up goals, or life goals, and maybe some deadlines for when we want to have a certain amount of work done with them. I understand people can be busy. This would be designed to be helpful, so it wouldnt make sense if this was something involved and time draining everyday. It would be something around only five minutes on the phone, or a quick email blast of a few sentences. We can negotiate how much time we spend, or in what form the updates take. We can also talk about meeting in person on a regular basis. The point Im trying to make is that this arrangement is meant to serve us both. I want support and encouragement with my goals, you want support and encouragement with your goals,
If youve got some goals or journey youre on that you want a supportive and friendly voice rooting you on every morning with, contact me and lets get this started.
