All men by nature desire knowledge.
Before examining the issue of ethical vs. unethical communication, one has to answer the question of – what are ethics? Unfortunately, such seemingly simple concept as ethics has puzzled philosophers for centuries. It seems as though mankind has been searching for the right answer for some time now, and yet there are still those that disagree. Exactly what are ethics? What is ethical and unethical behavior, and how does it reflect in an organizational setting?
Without examining the philosophical aspects of ethics, most people generally know what is and isn't ethical. In all likelihood, ethical behavior is any action based on right intention (as Kant puts it) coupled with given cultural values of the region. For example, most reasonable people would agree that stealing, lying, and cheating is unethical. Such concepts could easily be translated into an organizational environment. For example, if a company in financial trouble lies to its employees while painting a rosy picture about the organization's future, the behavior will in most cases be considered unethical. Additionally, it would be considered unethical to misguide potential job applicants about the company benefits or stock options. Because lying seems to be a universal concept of unethical conduct, the above examples would probably qualify as an unethical communication. On the other hand, is it unethical to monitor employee email? It is unethical to monitor employee phone conversations? One could argue both ways, because the definition of these actions is not clearly defined. In such case, no one is lying, or cheating, yet over fifty-seven percent of CEOs in corporate America consider such actions unethical (PR Newswire, 2001). It is because of such blurry lines that ethics remains to be an open-ended case.
On the other side of the spectrum, there are those organizations that clearly act in an ethical manner. There are those companies, that keep employees informed even thought the information presented my be difficult to hear (Linderborg, R., 1994). For example, ethical companies communicate the truth about their poor financial status even thought concealing the painful truth would be easier. Additionally, ethical organizations trust and respect their employees while insuring that employees have a certain control over decisions affecting them (PR Newswire, 2001). While talking about ethical vs. unethical communication of organizations, one needs to understand that untimely the individuals of the organization are responsible for the organization's ethical standing. If the CEO of a company lies to its stakeholders, it would seem that the organization as a whole is unethical. It is because each employee represents his or hers organization, it is important that all employees are of good morals while it is imperative that the officers or highly visible employees excel in ethical behavior.
In summary, it is rather difficult to define ethics, let alone discuss ethical vs. unethical behavior. However, because any society needs to be able to distinguish between ethical vs. unethical behavior, a certain set of norms have been formed that help people guide them on the path to morality. Thought the set of norms and values are a helpful guide, ethics remain to be discussed because many people disagree on what is and what isn't ethical. Such discussions will inevitably self-perpetuate because of cultural, moral, and individual differences between people – after all, we are human.ReferencesLinderborg, R. (1994, Spring).

355 South Teller StreetSuite 230Lakewood, CO 80226ph: firstname.lastname@example.com
We train leaders to be humble yet effective stewards of high performance organizations.
"KLG Consultants helped Antonoff & Co. with personality and skills testing for candidates for a vitally important position at our company. Ken Greenberg of KLG was extremely responsive to our needs and turned the tests around speedily (within ½ a day of receiving the completed tests).
The tests were very useful to understand the intelligence, skills and personality of each of the final applicants. The test results were invaluable in helping to confirm (or put in doubt) information we had gathered through the application and interviewing process.
In addition to providing the test results, Ken spent time helping us to understand both the meaning of the tests and how to utilize the test results in the onboarding process to help to understand critical potential shortcomings of each potential employee as well as his/her needs and desires. When we decided on a particular candidate, Ken advised us of particular actions we could take that would serve to enhance the likelihood of a successful long-term employer/employee relationship.
Through the process of testing and consultation with Ken, we found an employee who has turned out to be a great fit for the position and for our company. We were also able to eliminate some candidates who interviewed well, but who had shortcomings we likely would not have discovered until we had already hired that person.
I would highly recommend KLG Consultants for assistance in the hiring process."

Another buzzed-about British designer, Bruce Oldfield has been at the forefront of speculation since Kate's mother and sister Pippa were spotted leaving his London shop. Oldfield has sidestepped the rumors ("If I was lucky enough to be asked, I'd be delighted," he has said) but tells PEOPLE he envisions something "traditional and elegant, possibly even demure, but I'm sure she would want a modern twist." This lovely lacy confection has a vintage feel, but the bow at the waist and plunging neckline make it current.

Despite their status as defending Super Bowl champions, the Seattle Seahawks are expected to have a tough time even to repeat as the best in the NFC West for 2014.
A survey of The Sports Xchange football staff selected the Seahawks to win the division championship again, but they are the only top pick that was not a unanimous selection in their division. Also receiving first-place votes were the San Francisco 49ers, picked for second; and the Arizona Cardinals, who placed third.
And there is no telling if the St. Louis Rams might have received a first-place vote had they not lost quarterback Sam Bradford to an ACL injury in the third preseason game that put him out for the year.
Here is an in-depth, unit-by-unit look the NFC West as analyzed by reporters from The Sports Xchange who cover each team (using roster information as of Sept. 2):
1st -- SEATTLE SEAHAWKS
QUARTERBACKS: Starter -- Russell Wilson. Backup -- Tarvaris Jackson.
Wilson is back for his third year and if the preseason is any indication, appears ready to shoulder even more of the offense this season. He was 33-for-42 in the preseason with a passer rating of 133.8 and led the first-team offense to scores on 11 of 13 drives. A Super Bowl win in his second season would seem to make him worthy enough of elite status, but there may be even less doubt after this season. Jackson beat out Terrelle Pryor to hold onto the backup job and is a dependable player and much-respected in the locker room.
RUNNING BACKS: Starters -- Marshawn Lynch, FB Derrick Coleman. Backups -- Christine Michael, Robert Turbin.
While much of the preseason conversation centered on the team grooming Michael and Turbin to eventually take over, Lynch remains the focal point of the running game. He's 28 now and many in Seattle are wondering if the end may already be near. But there was no sign of it in his brief preseason activity. Turbin was more reliable in the preseason to win the backup job, but the Seahawks will try to find ways to get Michael's explosiveness on the field as much as possible. Coleman is a dependable fullback, a position Seattle seemed to be using less of in the preseason.
TIGHT ENDS: Starter -- Zach Miller. Backups -- Luke Willson, Cooper Helfet.
Miller, 28, restructured his deal in the offseason to return and was healthy throughout the preseason and could be due for something of a bounce-back year.He also remains a solid blocker. Willson, in his second season, has uncommon speed for a tight end and the Seahawks will continue to try to exploit his big-play ability. Helfet is a former undrafted free agent who made the active roster after two years on the practice squad.
WIDE RECEIVERS: Starters -- Percy Harvin, Doug Baldwin, Jermaine Kearse. Backups -- Paul Richardson, Ricardo Lockette, Kevin Norwood, Bryan Walters.
A healthy Harvin is one of the biggest reasons for the optimism about Seattle's receiving corps. The team expects an MVP-level type of performance out of him this season, both receiving and also getting some carries and as a kickoff returner. Baldwin and Kearse, each former undrafted free agents, will each be expected to increase their production a bit this season as the team replaces Golden Tate. Baldwin has shown a knack for making big plays on third downs, and Kearse always seems to find himself in the middle of the action at critical times -- both scored touchdowns in the Super Bowl. Of the rest, the biggest impact is expected to be made by Richardson, a second-round pick whose deep-threat ability may be unmatched on the team. However, he didn't have a play longer than 12 years in the preseason amid rumblings the team may need to show some patience. Walters was one of the most productive players during the preseason both receiving and handling returns, and it's in the latter role that he could have his biggest impact, spelling Harvin on kickoffs and Earl Thomas on punts. Walters was released in the initial cutdown to 53 but brought back Monday.'
OFFENSIVE LINEMEN: Starters -- LT Russell Okung, LG James Carpenter, C Max Unger, RG J.R. Sweezy, RT Justin Britt. Backups -- Alvin Bailey, Lemuel Jeanpierre, Stephen Schilling, Garry Gilliam.
The offensive line was the area of the team that got the most criticism last season, especially its pass blocking, as the Seahawks gave up 44 sacks. But the feeling around the team is that the line should be better this season. Unger and Okung appear healthier after battling injuries last season -- Okung missed eight games with a foot injury that required offseason surgery. Britt, a second-round pick from Missouri, won the right tackle job over veteran free-agent signee Eric Winston, who was released in the cut to 53. Another reason for optimism is the apparent improvement of guards Sweezy and Carpenter. The latter is a 2011 first-round pick who is in shape and healthy and might finally be ready to play to his potential. Bailey figures to be active on game days as a swing tackle and Jeanpierre active as a backup on the interior. Schilling adds depth at center/guard and Gilliam, a rookie undrafted free agent, at tackle.
DEFENSIVE LINEMEN: Starters -- RDE Michael Bennett, LDE Cliff Avril, NT Brandon Mebane, DT Tony McDaniel, Backups -- Cassius Marsh, O'Brien Schofield, Kevin Williams, Greg Scruggs, Jordan Hill.
The front four has been set since camp -- Bennett and Avril at the ends and Mebane and McDaniel inside. All four may be called on to play more this season than last year, when no one on the line played more than 57 percent of the snaps. That was when Seattle had essentially a seven-man rotation up front of proven, reliable players. Avril and Bennett are quick players who may get tested against the run. Mebane and McDaniel are vets who will be called on to be sturdy up the middle. McDaniel will also play some end on run downs. Williams and Hill are the primary backups inside. Schofield -- a revelation during camp -- will be the main pass-rush end backup, and Marsh and Scruggs are each young players who can handle both tackle and end.
LINEBACKERS: Starters -- MLB Bobby Wagner, WLB K.J. Wright, SLB Bruce Irvin/Malcolm Smith. Backups -- Kevin Pierre-Louis, Mike Morgan, Brock Coyle.
The Seahawks think the linebacking corps could be in for a breakout season, with Wagner and Wright each entering their prime and Smith coming off his Super Bowl MVP. Wagner has lateral speed and awareness to match anyone's in the NFL, and the long and lanky Wright is an above-average pass defender. Irvin will also see some time as a pass-rushing end, though he first has to get healthy after missing all of training camp following offseason hip surgery. Pierre-Louis is the backup weak-side linebacker, Morgan the backup strong-side linebacker and Coyle -- an undrafted rookie free agent -- the backup in the middle.
DEFENSIVE BACKS: Starters -- FS Earl Thomas, SS Kam Chancellor, CB Richard Sherman, CB Byron Maxwell. Backups -- SS Jeron Johnson, FS DeShawn Shead, CB Jeremy Lane, CB Tharold Simon, CB Marcus Burley.
Three-fourths of the original Legion of Boom -- Thomas, Chancellor and Sherman -- remain and will again make up a secondary as good as any in the NFL. All are signed through 2017, as well. It will be interesting to see how the league's new emphasis on illegal contact and defensive holding will impact their play. There was little evidence of much change on the LOB during the preseason, however. Chancellor is coming off hip surgery and says he feels as good as he has since college. Thomas has speed to rival any safeties, and Sherman mans the left side of the field with his typical aplomb. Expect opponents to go hard after Maxwell, in his first full year as a starter. Lane will be the nickel back, a role he filled ably at the end of last season. The rest of the backups are more unproven, though there are high expectations for Simon, a fifth-round pick in 2013 who is healthy after missing last year with a foot injury. Burley is the backup nickel after being acquired in a trade last weekend.
SPECIAL TEAMS: K Steven Hauschka, P Jon Ryan, LS Clint Gresham.
All three return from standout seasons a year ago -- none had any competition during camp. Hauschka hit a 59-yarder during the preseason, evidence of his improved distance from earlier in his career. Ryan may not lead the league in distance but does what the team asks in terms of hang time and direction to key a punt coverage unit that last year was as good as any in the NFL. Gresham simply handles his job without any real mistakes.

Grant Details
|Grant Number:
|3R01CA060691-15S1 Interpret this number
|Primary Investigator:
|Schwartz, Ann
|Wayne State University
|Project Title:
|Genetic Epidemiology of Lung Cancer
|Fiscal Year:
Studies of familial aggregation and differences in risk after exposure suggest that genetics plays a role in lung cancer susceptibility. Two studies, including this one, have found evidence consistent with Mendelian codominant inheritance of a rare autosomal gene in lung cancer and one linkage study is underway. Linkage studies in lung cancer are limited by the late age of onset and the rapidly fatal nature of the disease. Inconsistent findings have been reported in studies of candidate susceptibility genes focused on phase I and phase II enzyme polymorphisms and DNA repair enzyme polymorphisms. Overall, these studies have several limitations including a focus on only a small number of polymorphisms, small sample sizes, bias due to population stratification, and variations across populations. An alternative approach to the discovery of genes for complex diseases is through admixture mapping. Recently admixed populations, such as African Americans, provide the most power for this type of analysis. To further characterize genetic risk of lung cancer, the proposed study will use new methodology and a recently validated panel of SNPs in a case-only study design to identify genetic markers for lung cancer in African Americans. The specific aims of the proposed study are: 1) to accrue 800 African American lung cancer cases for admixture mapping; 2) to identify regions showing evidence of linkage to lung cancer susceptibility using admixture mapping methods in 800 cases and 200 controls (used to check model assumptions) using 3,011 SNPs known to differ in frequency by > 0.5 between Africans and European Americans and spaced 1.2cM across the genome; and 3) to continue to extend families with three or more lung cancer affected family members for future linkage studies. This will be the first study to use admixture mapping to identify susceptibility genes for lung cancer. By focusing on the African American population, with demonstrated admixture, this approach can be used successfully and is the next logical step in this research.

Sesame-Crusted Pork Loin
To promote the pork industry in Minnesota, I started out a contestant in county events, then won with this recipe at the Minnesota State Fair in 1975. The mix of Asian flavors lends a unique touch.
14-16 Servings
Prep: 15 min. Bake: 45 min. + standing
1/2 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 garlic clove, minced
3/4 cup sesame seeds
1 boneless rolled pork loin roast (about 5 pounds)
2 cups water
In a large resealable bag, combine the first seven ingredients. Add
the roast; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate overnight.
Drain and discard marinade. Place roast on a rack in a shallow
roasting pan; pour water into pan. Bake at 350° for 1-3/4 to 2

This falls under the category: Impress the Company! On the other hand, I don't recommend waiting until company comes to try this. It can be prepared ahead of time, adding lettuce, nuts and dressing just before serving. You could also use ricotta salata cheese instead of goat cheese. Go easy on the dressing as per the recipe, as I found it really didn't need much. It's adapted from a recipe found in the New York Times Magazine.

How to Import custom label sheet for merge setup?
I guess that almost says it all, except when I attempted to clarify this in an edit, I suspect what I am trying to do is a document merge with fields I would need to create on the document that has the labels, one file has all the data and the other has a layout of six labels.
I have a custom label sheet (8.5" x 11" paper, 2 rows, 3 columns with margins) that I wish to use in a merge for name tags. The sheet is NOT printed, so I am not feeding it through a printer for the merge, I wish to do the merge on the computer and send the completed label merge file to a printer at a later date. Part of the reason for this is that I do not have a color printer here and the label picture itself uses color.
Where it gets a little more complicated is that though each of the six labels per page is the same, it is a picture (when I double click any one of them the "Picture" ribbon comes up).
Is this a doable endeavor, or is it something that needs to be handed off to a professional print shop?

The Question being put, "Whether this Bill shall

Aaron Smith shall be found by the said Serjeant at
Arms, or his Deputy, they are respectively hereby required to keep him in safe Custody till such Time as
he shall appear before this House to answer for his said
Offence; and this shall be a sufficient Warrant on that
To Sir George Charnock Knight, Serjeant at

SSD Benchmarks going OVER Rated Speeds!
Previous Motherboard: Asus M3A78-T
OS: Win 7 x64
SSD: Kingston Technology Company - SSDNow Product Information - SSDNow V Series Drive 128GB 200MB/sec. read; 160MB/sec. write
When I FIRST got my SSD (with setup above) my benchmarks were pretty much at what the stated specs were...overtime it slowed down (no matter what i did, yes TRIM is on), to about 160MB/read...
I'm currently testing another motherboard (with same SSD, OS, all else same) the new motherboard is Foxconn A7DA-S...the motherboard is sent in from a warranty claim, anyways the bios that is on here is P02 which isn't even listed on foxconn's website (the oldest is P03)...The info says this bios is from 2008...anyways moving on..
With this bios/mobo + SSD, i'm getting 230MB/second benchmarks!!! WTF??? How can it go OVER the stated specs?
Just curious, I updated it to the newest bios, and right after the bios was updated I ran the benchmarks again, and it dropped back down to 160-170MB (same as the asus Board)....WTF?
So curious again...I "downgrade" the bios to the P02 one, and the benchmarks jump back up to 230MB/second...What is going on? Is this really happening? If so why?
I would like to add that the benchmark results are both with HD Tune and AS-SSD.
The results are similar for both (when one is 160MB, so is the other, and etc)
So I have to ask, am i REALLY getting 230MB/second sequential read right now? How is that even possible?
I like to add that
When the benchmarks report 160MB ballpark, the associated access times are .4 ms and 19-20% CPU usage
When the benchmarks are around 220MB ballpark, the associated access times are .2 ms and only 10.4% cpu usage!!!!
those are some very drastic performance gains, but why? are they even real?
|My System Specs

I would reccomend doing some research on the benchmarking programs your using to see if others are satisfied with the reults then if so just accept your gains and be happy.

|29 Jan 2011
My mobo is Foxconn A7DA-S and I have since updated the BIOS from P02 to P09 (most recent). Initially I didn't want to upgrade as with the new BIOS i Could not maintain those speeds with the SSD. However I was forced to upgrade since the previous bios, the bios would reset every single time the computer shut down (yes CMOS is cool).
So anyways, with this new bios and AHCI enabled, at first the benchmarks went back to 160MB/second. Then I ran it again the next day jsut for kicks and now its back up to 230MB/second!!
I added an attachment. No clue what is causing this extra performance...
Has anyone ever experienced something like this?

Key state Senate leaders oppose Columbia bridge plan
Two key members of the state Senate threw cold water on the prospects for putting up the money Gov. Jay Inslee says is needed for the $3.1 billion Columbia River Crossing project.
The Associated Press
OLYMPIA — Gov. Jay Inslee insists it is "now or never" on securing $450 million in state money for the replacement of the bridge connecting Interstate 5 between Vancouver, Wash., and Portland.
It appears that supporters of the Columbia River Crossing had better hope this is not the case.
Two key members of the Washington state Senate on Friday threw cold water on the prospects for putting up the money Inslee says is necessary to keep the estimated $3.1 billion project on track — and to attract as much as $1.2 billion in federal support.
Oregon lawmakers in March committed $450 million toward the project, contingent on Washington state doing the same.
Sen. Curtis King, R-Yakima, co-chairman of the Senate Transportation Committee, said, "We will not pass hundreds of millions of dollars out of the Legislature this session" for the project.
Senate Majority Leader Rodney Tom, D-Medina, said any transportation revenue package — such as the one floated in the Democratic-controlled House that would include a 10-cent increase in the gas tax — would have to be "decoupled" from the Columbia River Crossing (CRC) project.
Project supporters say the current bridge is a congestion point on a key corridor connecting Canada to Mexico and is built atop nearly 100-year-old wooden pilings reaching the end of their useful life. They note that more than a decade of planning has gone into the project, and the Obama administration has labeled it one of the nation's key transportation priorities.
Accepting an invitation from Inslee, U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood on Wednesday visited Olympia, telling state lawmakers it is time to "fish or cut bait" on the project, which he said was unlike any other in the country in terms of potential for spurring economic activity.
Calling LaHood's visit "a power play," King said he did not believe the "now or never" message to be credible.
"(LaHood) comes in and says: If you don't do it now, you're going to lose it," King said. "We've heard that for five years. You're telling me that if we decide we want to do this (at a later date) that the federal money is not going to be there? Where's it going to go?"
Opposition to the project largely comes down to the inclusion in it of light rail. Project opponents, notably Sen. Don Benton, R-Vancouver, point out that Clark County voters last November rejected a 0.1 percent increase in their sales tax to help pay for the light-rail aspect of the project.
They also say the bridge as currently conceived is too low, and that three businesses upriver of the bridge likely would have to relocate because they would be unable to fit their goods under a bridge with 116 feet of clearance. The current span is roughly 50 feet higher and, unlike its planned replacement, is a drawbridge.
The main problem with raising the bridge, those involved with the project say, is making it too steep to safely include light rail.
The Senate majority, consisting of 23 Republicans joined by two Democrats, also called on Friday for Inslee to initiate an investigation into what they describe as suspected cost overruns in the project thus far.
Inslee spokeswoman Jaime Smith, responding to King's and Tom's comments, said the governor remains steadfast in his commitment to the project.
"The CRC is absolutely one of the pieces we want to see included in a transportation revenue package," Smith said. "At this point, that's what we're going to be working toward."

- A favorite!SampadDined on 11/20/2014Love this restaurant for dependable food and service. Great for business and family when you want fine dining and excellent food. The steaks are superb but so is the sushi and the lobster--probably the best steamed 3 punter I ever ate. The sommelier is excellent and the wine he helps you choose are fabulous. This is truly a favorite of mine!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great SteakhousepmnyVIPDined on 10/18/2014One of the better steakhouse on LI. Not only great steak and seafood, but recently add sushi is fantastic. Great wine selection and great serviceSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not What It Use To BeEGGSDined on 10/17/2014Have gone here for years. It use to have a great vibe. Now since the renovations it is just good food with good service at a very expensive price. Nothing great. It is no longer an energetic and fun dining experience. We won't be going back anytime soon. There are just too many excellent steak house restaurants in the area that offer a better dining experience. Very sad. We use to love Rothmans.
- Never Disappoints!arfalconDined on 10/12/2014We had a table of 8 to celebrate our son's 19th birthday, and everything was perfect. From the sushi to the steak, the food was magnificent. The Kobe steak was literally melt-in-your-mouth, and the sushi we started with was perfect. Excellent side-dishes too. We love this restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- ReviewBillVIPDined on 10/9/2014The restaurant is cheap. They won't let you taste the wine before you order a glass. I find that ridiculous and have never had that in any restaurant I have been to. It prevents ordering a glass and sending it back. The food was just ok. My daughter steak was ok and for a filet had grizzle in it. My salmon was just ok and had little taste to it.
- YummyKarenessVIPDined on 10/5/2014It was a very nice experience. We came early, and were seated immediately. We were 4 adults, a 4 year old, and a toddler. The wait staff couldn't have been nicer to us...even when the toddler spilled my drink (that was replaced), and made a mess all over the floor. The only down side was that there was a tremendous delay between courses. It took 2 hours for dinner...the kids' patience only lasted an hour and a half.Special Features:
- OnthetownDined on 10/5/2014Had an early dine out on Sunday 10/5 so literally had the staff to myself. Food, service, wine list. All very good. My 10th year patronizing them.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Standard SteakhouseLexBDined on 9/20/2014What can you expect from such a notable restaurant such as Rothmann's? Great food, Great service, Great Wine, Great everything. Rothmann's delivered on all except the service. Waiter barely even spoke to us at all. Gave us his name, then the menus and walked away. He Never spoke about recommendations or specials, and when he took our order for a party of 6 (apps/soups, main course and sides per person) he didn't write anything down. This would have been great had he not missed some side orders and he also had to come back to ask again for steak temperature. Also, when the plates were served, they gave people the wrong dishes, we had to switch to the correct plates. Not what you expect from a quality restaurant such as this.Special Features:

- DisappointedKarenVIPDined on 8/30/2014We were disappointed with our experience. Are you a sushi restaurant or a steak restaurant? 2nd.... Two waiters did not know where the oysters came from and what kind they were. 3rd... Where was the bone from the prime rib? 4th... Cream spinach had an odd flavor to it. Expensive and not up to par with the other steak places in the area!Special Features:

- Excellent!!arfalconDined on 8/16/2014We had a group of eleven for dinner, and Rothmann's handled us like the pros they are. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and everybody was delighted. Much more than a steakhouse, Rothmann's has fantastic sushi and fish selections, as well as all the beef, pork and chicken selections you'd expect. And the wine list is INCREDIBLE.Special Features:
- Amazing foodYummyTummyDined on 8/10/2014We celebrated my MIL's birthday and it was our first time here. The food was amazing - specifically the quality. The seafood was fresh and much better than the normal brunch fare. The prepared dishes were flavorful and delish. What was really wonderful was how delicious simple things were, like Belgium waffles and pancakes - they were some of the best I've ever had. My only disappointment - There was a chocolate tower that kept breaking down, and not enough things to dip into it. The cookies and brownies were good, but I was surprised that there were no tarts or pies, or mousse. And there was a displaced quiche Lorraine in the middle of all the desserts which was a little strange. All in all, we are definitely going back...ASAP!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Tip already includedYummiesDined on 8/10/2014We were a group of 4 for their awesome (unlimited oysters & lobsters) brunch. We were surprised to find our check already included 18% gratuity. I thought gratuities were charged in advance for large groups and such. But gratuity aside, food was good!Special Features:
- Another Great DinnerBrutus70VIPDined on 8/8/2014We had not been to Rothmann's in a couple of months. We decided we wanted a steak for dinner and Rothmann's always fits the bill on Long Island for us. As usual, our dinner did not disappoint! They were running a surf and turf summer special which we both ordered and it was done perfectly. Their wine list is excellent and Sean, the sommelier, was helpful and friendly, as always. This particular visit we were treated like "regulars" and we felt extremely welcome. When on Long Island and you want a great steak dinner, attentive service, and excellent wine, go to Rothmann's!Special Features:

An in-depth analysis on how the right timing can dramatically improve recruiting
In my experience, the hardest-to-recruit exceptional targets are those who I label as "no, and stop calling me" passive top prospects who simply won't accept a recruiter's call. Even though most recruiters will tell you that their lack of interest in changing jobs is unwavering, my research has found that there are exceptions that may occur once or twice during each year, and I call them "their angry hours."
During this brief time period the prospect is open to a recruiting discussion because something has recently occurred that makes them angry about their job, their manager, or their company. And for at least a few hours … that anger makes them suddenly receptive to recruiter calls and to new job opportunities.
If you're going to be strategic in recruiting, realize that finding top performers and superstars on the Internet, on LinkedIn, and on social media is actually now quite easy. The remaining part of recruiting is selling, because it is extremely difficult 1) to get top identified prospects to even talk to you and 2) to "sell" these individuals to the point where they are willing to apply for your job. (more…)
When you survey the most frequent users of analytics and metrics in the corporate world, not surprisingly you find that HR ranks at the very bottom. Compared to finance, which is ranked No. 1, HR compares poorly with only half of its functions being classified as advanced users and three times more HR functions are classified as non-users.
HR shouldn't be surprised to learn that the executive team came in No. 2 because they (along with finance) are at the forefront of demanding more metrics and analytics from HR. The remaining business functions, operations, R&D, marketing, and sales all had a higher percentage of advanced metrics users than HR in this excellent 2013 AMA/i4cp study. I have been a public advocate of talent management and talent acquisition shifting to a data-based model for decades but the transition at most corporations has been slow, expensive, and painful. Because I give regular presentations on analytics and metrics, I've been able to capture a long list of reasons why firms should shift to a data-based model. The remainder of this article is simply a list of credible reasons that resonate with most HR audiences as to why your corporate talent function should embrace metrics and a data-based decision model.
In 30 years, I have yet to see a retention bonus retain, let alone motivate, anyone. – Kate D' Camp, former VP of HR at Cisco
Let's face it: only a few people voluntarily spend any time thinking about the use of employee retention bonuses (ERBs). I wouldn't either, except for the fact that a majority of major firms use them instead of much more effective retention approaches. The use of retention bonuses is at an all-time high but I wonder why, because they're expensive and only occasionally do work. In my over 20 years of work as a thought leader and practitioner in retention, I have been unable to find any credible corporate data that even comes close to demonstrating the effectiveness of retention bonuses.
The major flaws of employee retention bonuses fall into three categories, which include:

In NH visit, Scalia critiques legal education
Among the problems Scalia pointed to were a growth of non-legal subjects in law school curriculums, the virtual disappearance of the prescribed curriculum and the increasing irrelevance of legal scholarship.
He traced the history of legal education, and the seeds of virtue and of some future vice to the case law method introduced by Christopher Columbus Langdell to the Harvard Law School in 1870.
"In the 140 or so years that have passed since Langdell came onto the scene, the practical virtue of American law schools as a device for the teaching of law has failed," Scalia said.
Part of this is because modern law schools see themselves as a place to get more than a legal education, he said.
"Today among a mixture of other subjects . an examination of the prospectus of any American law school will reveal a number of 'law and' courses - law and literature, law and feminism, law and poverty, law and economics, etc, etc.," Scalia said.
He said some classes have no law in them at all.
He said the problem is compounded by the ready availability of electives of varying quality and difficulty.
He said there needs to be more professors teaching basic law classes, but he does not expect to see that happen in the near future. He said in many law schools, basic classes are understaffed, as professors focus on teaching the more highly specialized topics they tend to be researching.
Another "discouraging" development in law schools has been the increasingly hard to understand, esoteric nature of much of the scholarship produced by law faculties, of no value to practitioner, Scalia said.
"In earlier years, many practitioners subscribed to the most prominent law reviews . as a means of keeping abreast of development of the law. Those years are long gone," Scalia said.
He said the academic mindset removed from practice is illustrated in the make-up of many law school faculties.
He said professors are more often valued for the quality and quantity of work they publish than the quality of their teaching, and this needs to change.
"The influence law professors have through their teaching . will far exceed whatever impact they are likely to have . through publication," Scalia said.
Scalia concluded by saying he hoped that most of what he said has no application to the UNH Law School.
Jordan Budd, associate dean for academic affairs at UNH School of Law said he is happy to say it does not.
"It was music to my ears because it is a critique we fully embrace and that our law school is at the forefront of advancing," Budd said.
He said the faculty has substantial practice experience, many in sophisticated, challenging legal settings, and produce what they refer to as "consequential" scholarship focused on relevant issues of law.
Courses focus on basic law including Constitutional law, tort law and professional responsibility.
"His critique of legal education is kind of the theme of UNH School of Law," Budd said.

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) - A thief who has been scamming businesses across Kansas has made his way to Colorado.
The Kansas Bureau of Investigation says it received information that 45-year-old Robert Helms targeted a grocery store in Walsh, Colorado. Before this, they have said Helms impersonated a cop in order to use faulty checks to buy thousands of dollars worth of items from stores in 23 Kansas towns, including Holton and Sabetha.
The KBI says, in the past, Helms has shown store workers a badge identifying himself as a deputy with the Adams County, Kansas Sheriff's Office. However, there is no Adams County in Kansas. Authorities say Helms is now using the name Steve Bundy, who is the KBI agent leading the search for Helms.
The KBI says that, if Helms sticks to his past pattern, he may try to pass more bad checks in southwest Kansas or southeast Colorado in the coming days.
Anyone with information on Helms should call 1-800-KS-CRIME (1-800-572-7463).

Michigan bill would require criminal background checks for pet adoption
A proposed bill in the state Senate would require animal shelters to run criminal background checks on people wanting to adopt animals -- to make sure they haven't been convicted of any animal abuse charges.
The package of bills would also prohibit someone convicted of animal abuse from adopting an animal for at least five years. Breeders would not be required to do background checks.
READ: Senate Bill No. 378
One of the bills started out requiring the development of an animal abuse registry, but that ended up being too costly.

Police: Fired man sets fire to ex-boss's house and truck
Police say a man, from Daytona Beach, looking to get revenge from being fired set fire to his former boss's house and truck.
According to Daytona Beach police, 79-year-old Willie Irven fired Damion Haywood on his 40th birthday. Irven told police Hywood would always show up to work "high."
The Daytona Beach News-Journal reports police say a witness saw a man near Irven's truck. According to police the witness says the man was beating on the truck with a gas can.
When investigators arrived they found three tires punctured and a shattered window. Authorities say Irven's house had been doused with gasoline and set on fire. They say the asbestos siding caused the fire not to spread.
According to police, Haywood confessed to the crime.
Haywood's past includes being arrested 23 times and serving prison twice in the last 16 years. He currently has a bail of $25,000.
