Courtney Lelepali wore her team shoes! I still want to know what happened to her shoes on Tuesday. Mita Uiato set the middles. She also had two kills and two blocks, including one block solo. I'm beginning to think that Mita Uiato is awesome. Emily Hartong had a couple of nasty falls, the second worse than the first. It was so bad that several of the people in front of me cringed. BE CAREFUL, EMILY! Imagine the ensuing drama if she gets injured. OMG.
Members of the men's volleyball team were in attendance; some of them wore UC Irvine shirts, probably in response to the men's teams on the mainland wearing "Hawaiian" shirts during the women's matches there. The shirts didn't really make an impact (difficult to make out), so I suggest something more obvious for the match against Long Beach State --- toupees, for example. Here's Nick West. His shirt says "Can't Eaters."
Kalei Adolpho had a couple of dunks --- like she literally jumped up and dunked the ball, two handed, straight down to the other side. Awesomeness. She also had three blocks and three digs. Ashley Kastl's hair was really pretty, but she might want to consider waterproof mascara. Ask Jane Croson what brand she wears, Ashley! Kastl had three kills in 13 attempts.
Speaking of Jane Croson, she was --- meaning she laughed at herself, grinned through long rallies, and failed to move her feet on occasion. She had 14 kills and eight errors in 33 attempts and one service ace. My friend says her blocking improved; actually, my friend said "She's been touching more balls," but that sounds weird, so I'm going to say her blocking improved.
me: "Jane Croson's big head wasn't there today."Long Beach State on Saturday! Here's a short writeup about the rivalry that I cobbled together from newspaper archives. My friend is talking about bringing a sign. I really hope she doesn't bring a sign.
my friend: "Jane Croson's big head wasn't there on Tuesday either."
me: "Maybe Jane Croson's big head will be there on Saturday."
I completely forgot there is a match tonight. Broadcast information below. I'll be back with the usual after the match; may update occasionally during the match. Turns out I like to say match.
In other news, Emily Hartong is awesome and everybody likes her and she alone can be the leader of this team.

You may think your house is clean, but beneath that gleaming exterior and pine-tree scent lurks a lot of filth. Filth like bacteria, mold and mites. Here's a list that will make you think twice before you call it "home sweet home."
No. 01 - You
At the end of the day, YOU are pretty disgusting.
Your body is home to a wide array of microbes, from bacteria and viruses to (perhaps even) bugs and parasites.
There are 10 times as many bacterial cells as human cells in the ecosystem that is your body -- and as many as 182 different species of bacteria live on your skin alone.
Yep, if you're looking for the biggest source of grossness in your home, you need look no further than your own fingers, feet and belly button, not to mention those disease-carrying mucous membranes.
Much of your own co-habitants are harmless to you, but can potentially cause problems for other humans. So, if you wanted to be super-safe, you could simply avoid all human contact.
Sounds like a plan.
No. 02 - Your toilet
OK, it's kind of a no-brainer: your toilet is disgusting … but not as disgusting as it could be.
At least it gets washed out with every flush. Still, everything that goes in there is really gross, and as a repository for pretty much all the fecal matter in your house, it really isn't the cleanest surface.
And what about the infamous toilet seat? Should you sit on it? Look, you probably wouldn't want to lick it, but a toilet seat is far from the dirtiest thing out there.
If your immune system is relatively healthy, you probably won't have to worry about any STDs, common colds or hepatitis viruses that may be lurking.
When it comes down to it, your own skin is pretty good at keeping you safe.
No. 03 - Your vacuum cleaner (and bag)
Your carpet is a perfect home for a lot of nasty stuff.
Wet shoes drag in moisture and dirt, spills lead to mildew and mold, bacteria breeds in the dark recesses. Carpets, particularly those of the wall-to-wall variety, can be pretty nasty: as many as 200,000 bacteria can lurk per square inch (remember that the next time you lie down on a rug).
And where does it all go?
Either in your vacuum's bag or out its exhaust. You throw that bag out, right? But what about the vacuum cleaner's brush? Do you ever clean that?
One study found mold, bacteria and fecal matter in those brushes. Ick.
What can you do? Well, you can clean the brush, invest in a vacuum with a HEPA filter, or maybe even attack things head on with a new vacuum that zaps all your filth with UV light right when it enters the brushes. Who knew vacuums were so high-tech?
No. 04 - Your loofah or washcloth or sponge
You need water to live, right? Well, so do bacteria and viruses.
Microbes generally like humid environments. They also tend to like to hide from the deadly UV rays in light. So what stays wet and has lots of little cavities that get nice and shady and dark?
Why, it's that sponge in your kitchen sink or the loofah in your shower.
Don't freak out too much. Much of the life growing in that loofah has ancestral roots on your own body, so you're pretty well acclimated.
In fact, some of it may be of the "good" kind of flora and fauna, the kind that fight off the bad guys and give your immune system a helping hand from time to time.
Still, a single bacteria cell can multiple into an army of a billion overnight, so maybe it's time to buy a new kitchen sponge, huh?
No. 05 - Your garbage pail
So, it makes sense, right? All the food scraps that you don't eat wind up in your trash.
If you had wanted this stuff to stay fresh so you could eat it, you would have put it in the fridge, but you didn't.
Now, at room temperature and with plenty of organic material to chomp through, bacteria and fungi thrive and your trash bin starts to stink. Spoilage is, in essence, microbe-caused decomposition and everyone knows that garbage pails are full of spoiled food.
So, thanks to those microbes, your trash now also contains a lot of sliminess and smelliness. Not to mention a whole lotta life-forms.
No. 06 - Your refrigerator
The whole intention of a refrigerator is to prevent grossness (in the form of spoilage and decay) … so why does yours sometimes smell so foul?
We all let things go and cold temperatures don't actually totally stop the spread of mold, bacteria and the like; they just slow them, since microbes move and reproduce a whole lot slower in the cold.
And, by the way, mold likes to move. So if you have some moldy strawberries in your fridge, there are probably mold spores floating around the air in there, ready to land on whatever else you put in there.
Now you know why plastic wrap is such a good idea.
No. 07 - Your drain
Drains are gross.
Hey, there's a reason plumbers cost so much. Some parts of your home, like drains, just act like giant incubators, as reservoirs for ick.
But what about drain bugs? It turns out your drains may not be quite as disgusting as you think. Most bathroom bugs enter through cracks, crevices and doors. They end up in bathtubs and kitchen sinks only because they get trapped and can't climb out.
Or, maybe because they smell that disgusting, rotting food that's trapped in your kitchen drain or (eek) garbage disposal. Might make sense to give that a good scrub - and make sure you use some bleach while you're at it.
No. 08 - Your toothbrush
Ick. It's probably not what you wanted to hear, but your toothbrush (and anything else left out in your bathroom) may be really, really disgusting.
The reason? That foul beast living next door to your toothbrush. That's right, it's your toilet.
If you don't close the lid when you flush, you can actually aerosolize all the filth (including fecal bacteria) that lurk in the ceramic monster.
And a toothbrush, with it's moist, bacteria-friendly environment and plenty of microbe-ready hiding spots in between its bristles, might be the home of a bacterium's dreams.
Please, just close the lid. Is it that hard to do?
No. 09 - Your sheets
Did you know that you shed as many as 1.5 million skin flakes every hour?
And do you know what really like skin flakes? Dust mites.
That's right, the disgusting, dead-skin eating, allergen-causing bugs are all over your bedding.
And if that's not bad enough, you know what's also possibly a bedfellow? Fecal bacteria.
Thinking that you'd better go home and wash your sheets, like, NOW? Well, be careful: you might want to leave out your underwear.
The washing machine itself can be a source of the above-mentioned fecal bacteria (from underwear and towels) and those germs can and will survive detergent, cold water and a dryer's heat.
To be safe, you can bleach the hell out of everything, scald it in hot water, dry it in the UV-rich rays of the sun and wash your underwear separately from your sheets and towels.
You can also invest in some silver or copper or bamboo-infused anti-bacterial sheets.
No. 10 - Your books and papers
Ever heard of book lice?
They live in paper, but they're not particular: they'll take flour, grain or cardboard if that's all you got.
Also known as psocids, the small, colorless insects feed on the mold and mildew that grow on books.
Relax, they don't bite humans …but they are really disgusting and can reach infestation proportions pretty quickly. How quickly? Well, parthenogenesis isn't unheard of in psocids, meaning the females can lay eggs without ever having mated.
It's kind of a favorable trait, if you're looking to build your population.

See accompanying notes to consolidate financial statements
Basis of Presentation - The financial statements include the accounts of Metwood, Inc. (a Nevada corporation) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Metwood Inc. (a Virginia corporation) prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Management's Use of Estimates - The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. At June 30, 2012 and 2011, the significant estimates used by management include the valuation of its goodwill. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments - For certain of our financial instruments, none of which are held for trading, including cash, accounts receivable, inventory, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and the bank lines of credit, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, we consider liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed the federally insured limit of $250,000. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable - We grant credit in the form of unsecured accounts receivable to our customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers. The estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts, which is charged off to bad debt expense, is based on management's assessment of current economic conditions and historical collection experience with each customer. At both June 30, 2012 and 2011, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $5,000. Specific customer receivables are considered past due when they are outstanding beyond their contractual terms and are charged off to the allowance for doubtful accounts when determined uncollectible. For the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the bad debt expense was $15,058 and $13,332, respectively.
Inventory - Inventory, consisting primarily of metal and wood raw materials, is located on our premises and is stated at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out method.
Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and are depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Recovery periods range from three to thirty-nine years. Upon retirement or sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the balance sheet, and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in other income and expense. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets - We evaluate our long-lived assets for indications of possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by comparing the carrying amounts to the future net undiscounted cash flows which the assets are expected to generate. Should an impairment exist, the impairment would be measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the projected discounted future cash flows arising from the asset. There have been no such impairments of long-lived assets through June 30, 2012 and 2011.
Patents - We have been assigned several key product patents developed by certain Company officers. No value has been recorded in our financial statements because the fair value of the patents was not determinable within reasonable limits at the date of assignment.
Goodwill - We account for goodwill and intangibles under FASB ASC 350, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." As such, goodwill is not amortized, but is subject to annual impairment reviews, or more frequent reviews if events or circumstances indicate there may be an impairment. Goodwill was recorded at the time of Metwood's acquisition of Providence Engineering. Since Providence is no longer an active company (it has no employees and carries on no business activities), all goodwill carried on the books is 100% impaired and accordingly has been written off.
In prior years, we implemented a stock-based incentive compensation plan for our employees. Participating employees have an after-tax deduction withheld by the Company throughout the calendar year. As of December 31 of each year, the employee is considered vested in the plan, and we will match the participating employee's withheld amounts. We may also make a discretionary contribution based upon pay incentives or attendance. Periodically, we will purchase restricted stock on behalf of the employee in the amount of his withholdings, our match, and any discretionary contributions.

A half hour before The 13th Annual Critics' Choice Awards began, only a handful of celebrities had walked the red carpet, leaving reporters concerned that the writer's strike had struck again. Fortunately, a swarm of A-list actors including Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, George Clooney and Queen Latifah arrived with just a few minutes to spare. The biggest surprise of the night? Katie Holmes (in Lanvin) magically appeared on stage to bestow the Best Comedy award to the indie hit Juno before pulling a disappearing act. Fortunately, the other VIP guests stuck around to celebrate the year's best films.

Schumer: Feds need to study anti-missile technology
NEW YORK -- The tragedy of the Malaysia airlines flight and the missile attacks near Israel's main airport have local leaders concerned.
NY Senator Chuck Schumer is urging the government to look into whether American planes should be equipped with devices that would protect from missiles.
A similar study was conducted in 2004, but nothing came out of it. Since then, missile systems have changed and technology has advanced.
Senator Schumer says he now wants the Department of Defense, Homeland Security, and the FAA to revisit the issue, and come up with a comprehensive study of the threats of missiles to American passenger planes.
The study would look into different types of devices such as on board lasers, warning systems, flares, or infrared countermeasure systems.
Senator Schumer says these kinds of devices could be used to protect commercial airlines from being attacked by missiles during take offs, landings, or while the planes are in the sky.
Most military planes in the U.S. are equipped with this types of technology, but the majority of commercial airliners are not.
This type of technology is not cheap, it could cost from one to two million dollars per plane, and it's not clear who would pay for it, but Senator Schumer says no price is too high to protect American fliers.
"We can't let this happen to an American passenger plane, especially when anti-missile technology is such a reality," says Sen. Schumer. "They must determine if anti-missile technology on commercial planes in the U.S. is needed in order to protect American fliers."
According to Schumer, the government accountability office suggests that more than 500,000 portable surface-to-air missiles are in existence worldwide, with a substantial number acquired by terrorists.

While not my favorite form of exercise, running is one of those things I wish I loved to do. I usually save that particular heart-pumping workout for when I am super stressed and need to get some energy out. Well, it's either running up and down the hills around here or beating the crap out of my punching bag, which, by the way, does wonders for my attitude after a bad day.

EA's CFO Eric Brown has told the Baird Technology Conference in San Francisco that eight million copies of Battlefield 3 have been sold on all platforms since launch.
His comments were recorded by GameInformer who also explained that a total of twelve million copies of the game have been shipped to retailers.
These figures aren't quite as substantial as Activision's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 which is reported to have sold six and a half million copies in the first twenty-hour hours, according to Industry Gamers, but it does prove that Battlefield has captured a significant portion of the military shooter market in 2011.

Malaysia is a federal monarchy comprising 13 states and three federal territories spread across Peninsular Malaysia and Malaysian Borneo. It is home to more than 29 million people.
Capital: Kuala Lumpur

Peninsula Malaysia has Thailand as a northern neighbour, while the island of Singapore is just off the southern coast. Malaysia shares the island of Borneo with Indonesia and the tiny nation of Brunei.
While there is evidence of people having lived in the area for some 40,000 years, the first trading ports were established in the 1st century AD, with merchants from China and India settling in coastal enclaves. Islam spread to the peninsula in the 14th century, and the Malacca Sultanate, founded in the 15th century, was the first "state" on the peninsula.
First colonised by the Portuguese, then the Dutch, the British Empire took control of the Malay Kingdoms in the 18th century, with the kingdoms eventually becoming British "protectorates".
In World War II, Malaya, Sabah, Sarawak and Singapore were invaded and occupied by the Japanese military. After Malaya was re-conquered by Allied forces, calls for independence soon grew.
Malaya became the federation of Malaya in 1948, winning its independence in 1957. Just six years later, on September 16, 1963, Malaya was joined by Sabah, Sarawak and Singapore, forming the country of Malaysia.
Singapore withdrew from the federation in 1965 following racial strife between Malays and ethnic Chinese residents of the island.
Malay-centred positive discrimination followed, as well as a sustained period of rapid economic growth as urbanisation took effect through the 1970s and 1980s, shifting the economy from being dependent on agriculture to developing new manufacturing and industry.
The country's main exports are: semiconductors and electronic equipment, palm oil, petroleum and liquefied natural gas, wood and wood products, palm oil, rubber, textiles, chemicals, and solar panels.

Two men formerly with Norwegian Defense Force have been sentenced to death by a military court in the Democratic Republic of the Congo after being convicted of murder and espionage charges. Tjostolv Moland and Joshua French (who is also a citizen of the United Kingdom, according to the BBC) received their sentence on 8 September, 2009.
The charges stem from an incident on 5 May, in which their driver/translator, identified by the London Telegraph as Abedi Kasongo, was shot dead. Moland and French claimed that they were the victims of an attack by bandits. The former Norwegian Army soldiers were reportedly in the country scouting for contracts when the incident occurred.
The court also fined the Norwegian government $60 million over the espionage, despite that government's denial of any involvement. The Norway Post reported that the prosecutor had initially demanded $500 billion in damages from Norway. The Norwegian government has denied being a party to the case.
Norwegian Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere was quoted by the BBC as saying, "From a Norwegian position we clearly denounce death sentences against two Norwegian citizens and we also clearly denounce accusations that there has been espionage on behalf of Norway." The death sentence also drew condemnation from the European Union, which delivered a demarche to the Congolese Justice Department.
According to the London Telegraph, Moland and French departed from the Norwegian military under a cloud after allegedly trying to recruit fellow soldiers as contractors. After that departure, the two went to Africa, working in Sierra Leone and Angola, both places that had been known for conflicts over the years. The two men had been sharing an apartment in Uganda, but their reason for being in the Congo was not entirely clear. However, the London Guardian reported that billions of barrels worth of oil had been discovered in the region of the Uganda–Congo border. Even though the civil war in Congo was declared over in 2003, the region is still plagued by instability, including an August 2009 incident in which eight Ugandan fishermen were briefly held hostage by armed Congolese.
Whom French and Moland were working for was a mystery. The London Guardian, while reporting that a raid on their apartment turned up badges from a private security company, also noted that the company had stated a planned partnership had not worked out.
French and Moland have appealed their death sentence. A spokesman at the Norwegian embassy said that Norwegian consular officials were monitoring the situation, and emailed a statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which stated, "Representatives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will remain in Kisangani until further notice to assist the two Norwegian citizens in this difficult situation, and to assess what kind of help they will need in the time ahead."
The Norwegian government has said it has received assurances from the Congolese government that neither French nor Moland will be executed. A voice mail and e-mail to the Congolese embassy requesting comments were not returned.

Miami Beach Police Chief Phillip Huber was squeezed into his leather-padded swivel chair in his office at the Miami Beach Police Department on Washington Avenue, his beefy arms wedged tightly between his body and the inside of the chair's arms. He shifted little and spoke sternly. His chubby fingers, usually given to pounding emphasis on the desk top, were clasped tightly in his lap. For weeks now, he said, he had been splayed across the media's hibachi to grill over the flames of public scrutiny and humiliation. And of course he hadn't done anything to deserve it -- except do his job.
In fact, he'd done exactly what he'd been told to do when, three and a half years ago, he had uprooted his family from Maryland and left behind nearly 23 years of faithful service with the Baltimore County Police Department to come to Miami Beach.
How many times had he said it to reporters in the days since this hell began? How many times did he have to repeat it before everyone understood? He was brought here to manage a department that was stuck in the 1950s. It was rough. It was replete with cliques. His charge was to break up those cliques and take the department into the 21st Century. He required people to actually work for a living. No more long breakfasts; no more long lunches. And some of them don't like it.
But the words were beginning to lose their meaning. Even Huber didn't seemed convinced by them. They no longer seemed capable of saving him from his own demise.
His mood had turned morbid. Three floors down, in the department's glass-enclosed lobby, were several wall plaques commemorating officers killed in the line of duty. "And I'm next," the chief continued, a tentative smirk creeping across his face. "My name will soon be up there, too, won't it?" There was no doubt in Huber's mind that the city manager had already reached his decision. Three weeks into this travesty and the manager was simply going through the motions. But, Huber promised, somebody was going to pay for all this. There would be litigation, and lots of it. "I'm not going to have someone destroy my career, defame my family, destroy my reputation, and expect me to go, 'Okay!'" he declared.
City Manager Roger Carlton was asking him for responses to a series of allegations involving financial improprieties, mismanagement, and ethnic insensitivity. "Total bullshit," Huber called them. He assured anyone who would listen that he had done nothing wrong. But for now all he could do was wait. And wait. Rumors had circulated that the ax would fall that day. But it was nearly 5:00 p.m. on Friday, July 2, and there had been no word. Apparently he would be police chief for at least another weekend, another long weekend of little sleep. Uncertainty. Embarrassment. And next week, probably, his boss would hand him an empty cardboard box and tell him to get packing.
Huber pushed himself out of the chair and began pacing around his desk, between the sofa and the coffee table, back around his desk, beneath the rows and rows of framed commendations and awards and certificates that covered the office walls. "And the sad thing about all this," he said, "is that it's being fed by some of the same spoiled brats that we kicked out of their cush jobs way back when. I guess the city has to decide what it really wants. Do they want a police department that's responsible and accountable? Or do they want what it once was: a country club where everybody was happy because they got to do what they wanted to do?"
Huber glanced out his fourth-floor window toward the ocean glittering beyond the Art Deco buildings of Collins Avenue and Ocean Drive. The citizenry below strolled, flirted, Rollerbladed in the reflected light of the late-afternoon sun, a tableau of gaiety that mocked his present tribulations. "If this group is allowed to run me off -- the second police chief in three years," he warned, "the city will never ever get this police department back."
For three weeks the whole town had spun in the vortex of this administrative struggle, some people and institutions more violently than others. It had begun on June 10 when Huber met with Carlton to discuss Huber's tenure as police chief and, according to a city spokesman, "a cumulative piling on of concerns that have made it a time for the chief to reflect on his career."

I dont understand why you would do that.
Surely after passing all your exams and doing all the hard work you would just submit your PER.
Dear CIMA Moderator & All,
I have passed all my strategic level papers and T4 part B case study exam. However I have not submitted my pratical experience application for membership. So if hypothetically due to my personal circumstances I am not able to submit this within 4 years I will be time off (ie) will have no relationship as student or member with CIMA.
In this situation, how can I revive my relation with CIMA and apply back for my membership & submit practical experience after 4 years have elapsed & whether is it possible ?
I am sure after having passed all exams and paid all those subscription fees & exam fees CIMA should be considerate enough to allow back after 4 years to apply for membership considering that you can't take away a students efforts which he had put in for all those years just because he has taken a break for 5 years.
Also if the relationship is revived after 4 years then I assume that will start at the same level (ie) all my exams will be treated as passed and will only have to submit Practical experience. Also meanwhile if I continue to pay subscription fees for 4+ years then can I hope that I will not be timed off even after 4 years have elapsed ?
Thanks & Regards,
Hemal Mehta
I dont understand why you would do that.
Surely after passing all your exams and doing all the hard work you would just submit your PER.
Thanks Daniel, And I will try to close off the PER but this was just a hypothetical question to know the rules..as to how can CIMA not allow the student to submit PER after 4 years after that student has passed all exams and they have taken all exam fees...from students...? Its fine if there is some penalty fees for late submission..
I actually want one of the CIMA Moderator to answer this query of mine. Can any CIMA official answer this, please ? As i have emailed to cima.contact as well but no reply as usual. Request to answer the query, thanks in advance
I Too have had this same question. If we pay the subscription and attend CPD courses will we have to the exams all over again in order to restore the relationship with CIMA. There can be personal commitments or issues that may cause a setback in gaining PER. Would greatly appreciate a CIMA moderator's feedback.

The postage on the right features a festival held in August called Salon du Cheval. I recognized the word "cheval" as meaning horse, and these must be beautiful Arabian horses, in their finest dress. I don't know what the round yellow postage represents, but I am quite fond of round postage these days.

The round stamp is about the National Solidarity Week, which is held every year. There are different events and celebrations, and all the employees in the post office wear a pin like this stamp. I saw on TV that even the king and his cabinet wear the same pin.

No time to pull together a pie crust? Puff pastry comes to the rescue once again to make a golden, buttery topping for a savory potpie. And there's another secret under that puffy exterior: rotisserie chicken makes your workload even lighter.
Casey Barber

Did you change this recipe?Add your Twist
A twist is a way to share your own spin on our recipies!
|2 tablespoons olive oil
|1/2 pound red or small Yukon Gold potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
|1 small yellow or Vidalia onion, minced
|2 1/2-3 cups chicken broth
|2 large celery stalks, minced
|1/4 cup flour
|2 cloves garlic, minced
|2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
|Kosher salt
|1 sheet puff pastry, thawed in the refrigerator
|1 large carrot, peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch-thick coins
|1 large egg
|1/2 pound green beans, trimmed and sliced into 1 1/2-inch lengths
Preheat the oven to 400.
Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe, heavy-bottomed 12-inch skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion, celery, and garlic, and sprinkle with a pinch of kosher salt. Cook for about 5 minutes, until the vegetables are softened but not browning.
Stir in the carrots, green beans and potatoes, then add the chicken broth. You may not need all 3 cups of broth; only add as much as you need to barely cover the vegetables. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes until the broth is slightly reduced and absorbed, then taste for seasoning and add salt as needed.
Sprinkle the flour evenly over the vegetables and stir into the mixture. Add the chicken and bring the liquid back to a simmer.
Unfold the sheet of puff pastry and gently use a rolling pin if needed to stretch it to the width of the skillet.
Whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon water to make an egg wash.
Remove the skillet from the heat and place the puff pastry over the vegetables and sauce, tucking the edges of the pastry into the skillet to completely cover the filling. Brush the pastry with the egg wash.
Bake for 15 minutes, until the pastry is puffed and golden. Let the pot pie rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Bill Gates. Warren Buffet. Steve Jobs. These are business leaders of the past two decades who have made headlines for the right reasons, creating value and driving innovation for the companies they lead and serve. Leadership at the highest level is not just about conceptualizing and creating great products and services. It is about effective branding, advertising, and product positioning. It is about creating new markets for products that consumers didn't know they had a need for, but now wait in line anxiously to purchase.
Steve Jobs, whose recent passing saddened many entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs-at-heart, exemplified many core leadership qualities. In the late 1970s, he took existing data processing technologies developed by IBM and other corporations and married them with the graphical-user-interface and mouse conceptualized a decade earlier at the Stanford Research Institute. Integrating these items into one user-friendly package, Jobs and the Apple team developed the world's first PC.
Two decades later, Steve Jobs was back at the forefront of consumer technology, revolutionizing the portable music industry through the iPod. This in turn transformed the sales of music and video, propelling them into the digital sphere. Five years later, the iPhone represented a similar breakthrough for cell phones, creating handheld devices that offered many of the same user-friendly features of laptops and PCs. In creating these and many other products, Steve Jobs identified market opportunities and capitalized through decisive and coordinated execution.
At Leader Report, we focus on the trendsetting entrepreneurs, financial wizards, technological gurus, health care innovators, and other visionary leaders who have exerted a substantial impact on business and society. The leaders we profile on are not necessarily the biggest or the brashest. Often they are those who have quietly gone about their business, improving society in significant and under-recognized ways. Our featured leaders range from social media-driven entrepreneurs to those who have created shareholder value in the board room. Leader Report casts a light on leadership in all of its multifaceted forms, recognizing individuals who have made an impact in the corporate sphere, while bettering our everyday lives.

The Cornerstone of Personalized Medicine
The idea of "personalized" medicine isn't just about a one-on-one encounter with a doctor, the use of sophisticated mobile applications, or heightened access to healthcare providers, medical records, and services. Personalized medicine also extends into the depths of who each of us are at our essence — to our individual genetic makeup.
