The Tandem Culture – Organizational Bureaucracy in Public Sector
AbstractThe article discusses the background of the organizational processes of public administration, which is organizational culture and bureaucracy, elements that tend to an entity. Supporting strategies and policies of organizations can be achieved through a strong organizational culture, by the extension of subcultures in the private sector. Also, there are measures proposed for the bureaucratic system mitigation, by extending the firm model towards a bureau model, practicing of flat structures, updating the administrative/managerial tools, etc. Practical development of the two components, faces of the same entity, means a real reengineering of the public organizations, a domain in which there is not enough expertise.

Marketing Interview (Positive Experience; Average Interview)
I applied through an employee referral and the process took 3 months - interviewed at Makerbot.
Interview Details – Thoughtful, but not as efficient as you'd have at a mature company. Lots of moving parts (people, times) & competition for the role means that there are delays. The process is thorough. Met a lot of people, as building culture is really important.
Interview Question – You're good, if you prepare. Nothing out of the ordinary. Answer Question
Negotiation Details – Reasonable. You need to know what you want, and willing to be flexible on. MakerBot is reasonable.

Marketing Manager Interview (Negative Experience; Average Interview)
I applied online - interviewed at Makerbot in May 2014.
Interview Details – I thought after reading previous reviews that I was walking into trouble but when I asked my interviewer about the reviews, sh reassured me that a lot of management had changed and things had cleaned up. I'm sorry to say it turned out to be a total mess.
1st interview was via phone w/ would be director. Standard walk me through your resume.
2nd interview I came in for but HR told me they set the wrong day. WTF 1/2 day wasted.
2nd interview, take two - group interview with 6 employees from sales and marketing. Slightly nerve-racking because of format. Was told at the end of the interview that they would bring me in for 3rd interview.
3rd interview - I had to fly in specifically for this. Received email upon landing that HR wanted to reschedule because they had a new employee they wanted me to meet the following week. I responded that I preferred closing the process. I didnt get a final response until I was at the Starbucks next door preparing for the interview - Marketbot insisted I come back another time... WTF
3rd interview try two - cancelled work travel to accommodate their timeline. Four 30 min interviews. First interviewer 20 min late. Grabs a random person that is walking down the hall and hasnt seen my resume to continue the interview. Then interview 2 overlaps. At end of interview 2, interviewer asks who Im meeting with next. Head of the department (key person I needed to meet that day). "Oh ______ isn't even in today. Yeah, he's travelling". WTF x2.
Interview 4 with HR. Am told I may have to come back to meet head of department, that I would hear back in 1-2 weeks. One month later I get response that I'm not chosen for role.
Overall impressions. Generally sharp cohort of employees. I liked my would-be director. HR dept completely over their heads. Questionable whether organization as a whole is as lost - head of dept being on travel for final interview that was basically to meet with him raises serious concerns.

Retail Trainer Interview (Negative Experience; Difficult Interview)
I applied online and the process took 4 days - interviewed at Makerbot.
Interview Details – Makerbot gave me quite the run around during the interview process. First they offered me a phone interview in which they asked about my work experience and how much knowledge I had about the 3D printing industry. The phone interview took less than 30 minutes and was fairly painless.
They invited me to come into their office to speak with a few members of the training team. The in-person interview was almost all questions about how much I knew about 3D printing. They pretty much quizzed me.
Once that was over I got an e-mail that same day asking me to do a 15 minute presentation for the team on the basics of 3D printing. I did A LOT of research on Makerbot products, Thingiverse, 3D rendering software, etc. I presented to a room of about 10-15 people and had to answer some of their questions afterwards. An HR person walked me out of the room she told me I did a great job and that she was impressed with my knowledge in 3D printing and how well I presented. At that point I thought I had the job for sure. I was asked to wait in their lobby while HR and the team deliberated. They then asked if I could come back to interview 1:1 with their director of HR because she was on lunch. At that point I was a little annoyed, I didn't want to commute back to Makerbot HQ for a 3rd time. I asked if I could just wait for her to come back. They allowed it. An hour later I met with the HR director. She asked me very basic interview questions like "What are your strengths?".
After I had met with her, a member of the training team took me aside and said the company was making some changes internally and that the Retail Trainer job might not be a thing after the changes. She said they'd keep in touch and let me know if they still want to keep the Retail Trainer role--meaning...they'll let me know if the job will still exist for me...it's been over 3 months since then and I haven't heard anything since. Upon looking at their Careers page I see that the position is no longer there. So either they kept the role but hired someone else or the role was phased out completely. Either way interviewing with them was a total waste of time.
Interview Question – Tell me about your training method. How would you teach a class on 3D printing? Answer Question

Vice President of Sales Interview (Negative Experience; Difficult Interview)
I applied online and the process took 4 weeks - interviewed at Makerbot in June 2013.
Interview Details – Was a very disjointed process. Never felt very warm - and it was very much a sausage factory, i.e. - they never got to know you. You were led from room to room meeting people. This was pre-acquisition so perhaps they were in between things - but it just felt like a horrible process and not a place I'd want to work at. Their CEO literally dropped in late during my presentation and was completely unfriendly. Not someone I got a good vibe from.
Interview Question – Very specific questions regarding selling hardware and the challenges that entails. So this may not be difficult for folks from that background, but for me, was difficult. Answer Question

I applied online and the process took 1 week - interviewed at Makerbot in November 2013.
Interview Details – I applied via indeed and was contacted by hr fairly quickly. We scheduled an on-site interview. I was to meet with the vp of sales. When I arrived, I had to wait a bit, which allowed me to observe the office. It was a very open space. People were having meetings on the sofas out in the open. There were toys displayed on the shelf behind the receptionist, which gave it a fun vibe I suppose. The interview took place on those sofas as well, which were very close to the employees there, and that made me feel uncomfortable. The interview was very short. He mostly focused on who I thought their target audience were, and if I had a certain budget, what would I do with it. The whole thing just felt very rushed.

CVNH domain
solution nmr structure of complex of 1:2 cyanovirin-n:man-alpha1,2-man-alpha restrained regularized mean coordinates
In molecular biology, the CVNH domain (CyanoVirin-N Homology domain) is a conserved protein domain. It is found in the sugar-binding antiviral protein cyanovirin-N (CVN) as well as proteins from filamentous ascomycetes and in the fern Ceratopteris richardii.[1]
Cyanovirin-N (CV-N) is an 11-kDa protein from the cyanobacterium Nostoc ellipsosporum that displays virucidal activity against several viruses, including human immunodeficiency virus (AIDS). The virucidal activity of CV-N is mediated through specific high-affinity interactions with the viral surface envelope glycoproteins gp120 and gp41, as well as to high-mannose oligosaccharides found on the HIV envelope.[2] In addition, CV-N is active against rhinoviruses, human parainfluenza virus, respiratory syncytial virus, and enteric viruses. The virucidal activity of CV-N against influenza virus is directed towards viral haemagglutinin.[3] CV-N has a complex fold composed of a duplication of a tandem repeat of two homologous motifs comprising three-stranded beta sheet and beta hairpins.[4]

After a long travel day, I was up bright and early to grab a caffe latte and walk briskly along the ancient Tiber River--my apartment is one block from Ponte Sisto in the old center city--to huge bright St. Peter's Square and the Vatican. The scale of St. Peter's Basilica is so stunning that more than one visitor gasps at the entrance. Michelangelo's Pieta is on your immediate right, and I particularly loved the statue of St. Peter with his right foot worn from centuries of caresses. I stayed for Latin Mass, very cool, reminding me of the weekly sung Episcopal mass from my youth at St. Hilda's. I got the gist of the homily, even in Italian (don't lust for career, success, winning and material possessions; being humble before God and loving friends and family is more important. Aren't they all like that?).Read More »
Big. Black. Gay. Loud. New Orleans bounce artist Big Freedia presided over a sweaty mess of dancing kids for about 30 minutes late last night at Coco 66 in Greenpoint. I haven't experienced that sort of frenetic energy in a club since catching a late-night Girl Talk set a few years back in Austin, TX. After a swift high energy set by New York's House of Ladosha, DJ Rusty Lazer got the crowd going, his stage jammed with dancers before he cleared a path for Freedia. By the time Freedia busted out her signature tune, "Azz Everywhere," the stage was again filled with folks dancing wildly (see related Flickr photos by eatsdirt).Read More »

The Apple Enigma: Confessions Of A Reformed Apple Hater [View article]
1. Most forecast info you find on AAPL is WRONG!
2. The stock can quickly diverge from company fundamentals and stay that way longer than you would ever imagine.
3. There actually are OTHER STOCKS, so if this dog won't behave go get a cat. (but not CAT, apparently;)
4. Again, I followed this stock every day from summer 2012 until last Spring and NOBODY saw a double-dip into the $300s....NOBODY. So whatever you are hearing now from the same people - did they fix their crystal balls?
5. This stock can DROP 50% and you can lose ALL of your money using options, or only half of it with the common stock, in only a few months. Gotta love the "safety of large caps, low P/E, great balance sheet, etc." right?
Meanwhile, plenty of other stocks did quite well since last fall, and you could have thrown a dart and probably done better than trying to follow all this AAPL nonsense, and for what? Well, it might go back to $600 this year and that's about 20% higher...yay. Could have bought the SPY last year and turned this noise off and done better.
Best to leave this one....unsolved. You can't really dust for vomit...;)Oct 25 12:45 AM | 1 Like |Link to Comment

The "fashion" element is a really tough one to quantify. I don't think Blackberry and Dell are good comparisons as they never had the "brand cool" that AAPL has maintained.
On the one hand, my kids and every other family I'm aware of has "iPads" NOT "tablets" and they are all growing up with AAPL and the AAPL ecosystem. Does this mean a whole new generation of AAPL consumers? Maybe. Or maybe not.
As you point out, they could just as quickly decide they hate that simple device that was for kids and there goes your AAPL "coolness" as the young crowd moves elsewhere.
I don't know the answer to this one, but it's dangerous to assume that what is cool now will always be cool....except for Pearl Jam.Sep 28 12:19 PM | 0 Likes |Link to Comment
"dennch" if you invest based on your "feelings" - which it sounds like you are doing based on your insults - you will lose money faster than most.
Why are you offended by someone proposing a view opposite to yours? (that's a rhetorical question, no answer needed, just consider it yourself).
I suggest you seek out opposing view points and seriously consider them as a check on your emotional attachment to your investments. This will help you know whether you are really being objective or not. If opinions here make you "upset" then you are not being objective.
I own AAPL to make money - no other reason - and if there's a risk to that then I want to hear why whether I agree ultimately or not.Sep 28 12:07 PM | 1 Like |Link to Comment
"Max pain" being the unsupported hypothesis that amateur traders like to use as a guide to where the stock price will close on Friday op ex - talk about a concept that should be ignored! Case in point it did not close at $480 or the predicted $478.
Guess what? On any given morning I can tell you within +/-2% what the closing price will be on AAPL with an 80% correct outcome. yay. worthless.
Cramer said he preferred GOOG over AAPL in October of 2012...yeah, what a bad call that was! I recall the same "he's an idiot, he's always wrong" talk on that call. Since the spring Cramer has said it would be stuck in a trading range of $450 - $500 and guess what, that's exactly what has happened so not sure I'd say he's "almost always wrong."
AAPL is still a "show me" stock, but it's worth keeping a medium-size long position IMO due to the buyback, dividend, and potential. Most people seem to think it's either going to the moon or down into the gutter so I will propose that it will struggle around $500 for much longer than most people think possible - but I'm wrong much more than Cramer;)....Sep 28 11:57 AM | 0 Likes |Link to Comment

Add the voice of Barton Biggs to the chorus of hedge fund managers who see big things for the U.S.—and world—economy.
The Traxis Partners founder pooh-poohed any suggestion that anything could blunt the market rally he predicted for this year. Not even the European debt crisis.
"I would just point out that the world is having a strong economic recovery, and so is Europe," he told Bloomberg Television.
Biggs is especially bullish, however, about the U.S., with Morgan Stanley's former chief strategist predicting a 15% to 20% rally in stock prices. In particular, he's favoring technology and pharmaceutical stocks, as well as property companies.
"There are plenty of opportunities in the U.S.," Biggs said. "It's by no means a foregone conclusion that we have a crisis every three years and, my God, that the world is coming to an end."
"I don't believe that's what's happening at all."

His mother played songs by Frank Sinatra to him as a child, and he later became a fan of Motown and other R&B/soul music. He took piano lessons as a child, but he did not like them. He would skip the lessons and ride his bicycle across the bridge from his grandfather's farm over to the heart of the black "Chicken Hill" ghetto, where he could just listen and absorb the music. In the 1960s, Hall attended Temple University, but did not graduate, preferring instead to spend his time singing on the street corners and play with various musicians and groups.

Congratulations to all the winners of the JewishPress.com raffle at The Event
Taiwan has agreed to examine the possibility of cutting its oil imports from Iran in response to US calls to join the international sanctions regime aimed at halting Iran's nuclear program.
The US and the EU have been trying to persuade a list of countries – China, India, Japan, South Korea amongst them – to sign on to their ramped up-sanctions regime, which calls for an end to oil importing contracts with Iran by July 1, and a freezing of Iran Central Bank's assets.
According to a Taiwanese national security official, his country would agree to a gradual decrease of crude oil imports from Iran, as Iran is one of Taiwan's top sources of crude oil, at 6.8% of total imports.

Cameroon Blocks All Nigeria Borders As Ebola Cases Rise, 17 Liberian Escapees RecoveredSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/19/2014 - 14:51
On the bright side, Nigeria claims it is "cautiously optimistic" about the spread of Ebola in Lagos; however, 3 more cases reported and the fact that Cameroon has decided to block all borders with Nigeria because "it is better to act preventively rather than have to heal" suggests things are anything but under control. The 17 quarantined Ebola-symptomatic patients that escaped from a Liberia clininc have been found and put back into quarantine in another clinic. The WHO reports the rate of cases and deaths are accelerating further with 1,229 deaths and 2,240 reported cases with Austria the most recent nation to get a scare as APA reports two cases found.

Charting The Diminishing Effects Of QESubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/19/2014 - 13:42
For each $1 of additional quantitative easing by The Fed, the S&P 500 adds $4 of market capitalization. This correlation-is-causation 'fact' has been remarkably constant since the Fed unleashed QE on the world, but, as Bloomberg's Chase Van Der Rhoer notes, still well below the $12 market cap gains pre-2008 and that it now takes $41 billion in additional stimulus to nudge High-Yield credit spreads 1bp tighter. However, the largest 'diminishing effect' of QE is seen in job creation (were one to believe there was any causal link). It now takes a record $37,400 of additional QE for each additional job created (5 times the pre-Lehman levels). It seems it is indeed time to retire QE...

Absolute Bubble Insanity: For Nearly Half A Billion Dollars, Here Is The World's Most Expensive PenthouseSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/19/2014 - 13:02
Forget Hong Kong, London and New York: when it comes to the pinnacle in absolute real estate insanity - perhaps in all of history - look no further than James Bond's favorite gambling mecca, Monaco. It is in this tiny Riviera principality where we find the Tour Odeon, a double-skyscraper being built by Groupe Marzocco SAM near Monaco's Mediterranean seafront, which will contain a 3,300 square-meter (35,500 square-foot) penthouse with a water slide connecting a dance floor to a circular open-air swimming pool. The description is nice, but it is the bottom line that is mindblowing: Bloomberg reports that the apartment may sell for more than 300 million euros ($400 million) when it goes on the market next year, French magazine Challenges reported. That would make it the world's most expensive penthouse, according to broker Knight Frank LLP.

Lately it is not just trains blowing up across the country in the ongoing effort to prove just how safer rail transport is for crude oil transit compared to pipelines: as citizens of Cincinatti found out this morning, their drinking water may come with an added kick after thousands of gallons of diesel fuel spilled out onto the Ohio River after an incident at a power plant early Tuesday. According to WCPO, the Coast Guard said it estimated about 8,000 gallons of fuel spilled out from Duke Energy's W.C. Beckjord power station outside of Cincinnati.

UK Bakery Chain Proud To Provide "Shit To Scum For Over 70 Years"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 08/19/2014 - 10:34
"All publicity is good publicity," right? Perhaps not. UK bakery Greggs suffered a PR nightmare this morning, as The Drum reports, after its primary Google search image, which is linked to the Wikipedia company description, was replaced with an expletive-ridden parody logo. The message in the image, which Greggs has appealed to Google to change, claimed the bakery has been "providing shit to scum for over 70 years".

Guardian Camera Club: Kevin Thornhill's portfolio
These monochrome images of London show black and white street photography. Bear in mind that B&W images should go from brightest white to darkest black, with all of the tones in between. Compositionally the most successful is 'Street Walkers' – the viewpoint looking between these streets is unbeatable. 'Underpass' looks a little out of focus, perhaps it would have been better to wait until no cars were passing through the tunnel before making the picture. The way the lights and fencing sweep in on the right leads your eye into the frame, but on the left side feels messy, try cropping out the pavement next time. 'City rain, City rain' would have worked better if you could have positioned yourself a little lower and further back from your subjects, the angle is slightly awkward. Have a look at the masters of street photography, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Eugene Atget and Brassai for inspiration

Stephen Ambrose's son, Hugh, continues legacy
MADISON, Wis. (WTW) — Partly out of habit, and perhaps subconsciously to prove his mettle, Hugh Ambrose grabbed hold of the manuscript that arrived in the mail from his father, whipped out his marker and began to employ it liberally throughout, as if he were still a teacher's assistant challenging the assertions of one of his undergraduate charges.
It wasn't until after he mailed back the rough draft of what was to become "Undaunted Courage," the 1996 book regarded as the definitive modern retelling of the Lewis and Clark Expedition, that it struck the youngest of noted historian Stephen Ambrose's five children that he may have short-circuited their nascent working relationship.
That reaction, in Hugh's words: "Oh my God, what did I just do?"
Those fears were for naught. If anything, Hugh's boldness convinced his father that the kid may actually be of some help as his career focus turned from academia to producing a series of best-selling nonfiction titles....

Check these out, too...
it seems we are alone.
We build castles and moats brick by brick,
To hide from enemies made of stone.
They are our troubles, fears, witches and ghouls
Surrounding your protection waiting for your false shields
to collapse
In your fortress you sit near light-filled pools,
To keep the shadows of the fog away…perhaps.
We invent beliefs to ignore the truth,
We build castles and forts to hide from its ugly face.
We wish for evidence to make it false, we want proof,
To have it vanish without a trace.
But some people walk among the fog so thick
They don't hide from the truth
For they are heroic.
They don't build castles or moats
The enemies of stone guard their fictions forever
As the people of the fog travel for hours in their small,
little boats
Searching for the truth others have severed.
Unbelieved and different they smile at one another,
Traveling through the truthful fog like sister and brother.

Hey guys,
I am new to develop mobile applications on Nokia devices, forgive a beginner, but I need some information about Nokia devices. I want to know which 3D graphics library can be used to develop an application on Nokia with Java? Also I want to know whether it depends on the model of Nokia?

It is forever worth mentioning that individual teams earn NCAA tournament berths, not leagues. A league can be ranked first nationally, but if it is populated by three top-10 teams and a bunch of solid teams a little above .500, chances are good it will send three teams to the tournament.
So this isn't so much a look at the Atlantic 10 as a league (though it is quite solid and entertaining) as it is the top five or six teams in the conference. And for now, things look rather promising for that league built on basketball.
Massachusetts and Saint Louis are ranked. Virginia Commonwealth was earlier this year. George Washington is one of college basketball's best stories. Richmond has emerged as a team with a profile worth examining over the last week.
Last four included: Missouri, Richmond, Tennessee, Southern Methodist
Last four out: Mississippi, Indiana, Arizona State, Brigham Young
Next four out: Arkansas, Dayton, Indiana State, Illinois
Moving in: Canisius, Missouri, North Carolina Central, North Dakota State, Richmond, Southern Mississippi, Stony Brook
Moving out: Brigham Young, Illinois, Manhattan, Morgan State, Old Dominion, South Dakota, Vermont
Conference call: Big 12 (7), Atlantic Coast (6), Big Ten (6), Pac-12 (6), American (5), Atlantic 10 (5), Big East (4), Southeastern (4), Mountain West (2)
It's been an impressive recovery for the A-10, which was raided by the American (Temple), Big East (Butler and Xavier) and Conference USA (Charlotte). Both Butler and Temple made the NCAA tournament last year, and Xavier is a near-annual tournament invitee.
The A-10 added George Mason from the Colonial Athletic Association, and all the Patriots have done is take up residence in the basement of their new home. But there are enough solid teams in the top half (and change) in the league to make it an interesting commodity.
There are five Atlantic 10 teams in the top 50 of the RPI. There are nine in the top 100. Of the other four teams (yes, the 13-team A-10 remains a blatant misnomer), only Duquesne is outside the top 200. There isn't excess dead weight.
That, coupled with the credible performances of the teams at the top of the conference, provides reason to believe the Atlantic 10 can match its five-bid season of a year ago.
A little less parity might help, but there are enough things working in the A-10's favor, from a modest year in the mid-major ranks to the struggles of teams like Georgetown and Marquette in the Big East to the seemingly annual disappointment of teams in the SEC besides (usually) Florida and Kentucky.
Today's bracket features five Atlantic 10 teams. It might not stay that way through March, but no one should be surprised if it does.
Note: (Teams with their conference affiliation in parenthesis are projected to be automatic bids by winning the conference; in this bracket, the West winner would face the Midwest winner and the East winner would face the South winner)
