Interview DetailsI got interviewed by two different people, separately, on the same day. Two people asked you the same questions, mostly basic questions: about your education, job experience, etc. Nothing different than any other interviews with other companies, except with this company, they don't even ask you to tell them about the company's background information, like many of the law firms do.

Thomas Heatherwick has completed Boiler Suit, an undulating facade of woven steel panels encasing the boiler house at Guy's Hospital in London.
The project is part of a wider improvement scheme at the hospital.
Photos are by Edmund Sumner.
Here is a press release from the hospital:
Leading designer transforms entrance to Guy's Hospital
Internationally renowned designer, Thomas Heatherwick, has helped to transform the entrance to Guy's Hospital as part of a major £2 million project to improve the area.
The exciting new scheme is his studio's first commission for the National Health Service and brings together a huge number of improvements which will benefit patients, visitors and staff alike. These include widened pavements for better pedestrian access; a one-way traffic system, with designated drop off points; improved signage and lighting; and a new shop for the Friends of Guy's Hospital.
At the centre of the scheme is the Boiler Suit, a unique façade designed to encase the boiler house which powers Guy's Hospital. The Boiler Suit is made up of 108 undulating tiles of woven stainless steel braid and is illuminated at night to provide a distinctive welcoming beacon for staff and visitors arriving at hospital in the dark.
The project has been made possible thanks to funding from Pool of London Partnership, Guy's and St Thomas' Charity and the Friends of Guy's Hospital.
Other improvements made to the Guy's Hospital approaches include:
- A one-way traffic system including an entry barrier at the Snowsfields end of Great Maze Pond with an intercom for vehicle drivers to gain access to the hospital entrance;
- Better drop-off and parking arrangements for disabled visitors and patient transport vehicles;
- Seven new CCTV cameras which monitor the entrance and the surrounding area 24 hours a day;
- A new cycle store right next to the main entrance.
Alastair Gourlay, Capital Development Manager at Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, said: "We have wanted to make improvements to the area around Guy's for some time, and I am pleased that our patients and visitors are now greeted by a much more welcoming environment. The feedback we have received so far has been very positive, and we are now looking at ways of making further improvements to link into forthcoming developments at London Bridge."
Karen Sarkissian, Director of Art and Heritage at Guy's and St Thomas' Charity, said: "It has been enormously rewarding and exciting to commission such a prestigious designer to work with us. Thomas has come up with an eye catching design which you would not expect to encounter on a hospital site."

Quote: Successful leadership is the most important skill because it allows the group to complete the task on time and allows for icing to be placed on the cake. Ben Batha Los Alamos High
Team: 69
School: Los Alamos High
Area of Science: Computer Science
Interim: In recent year energy-aware computing has become a major research topic; not only in wireless and mobile computing environment but also in high performance and cloud computing environment. In my project, I would like to conduct research on energy-cost aware heuristic job dispatching methods. I plan to implement those proposed methods using a multi agent modeling and simulation approach. I have surveyed research papers and technologies in energy-aware computing areas and I also studied existing Time-of-Day energy pricing from many states. I have finished my design on data structure and program structure. Currently I am working on the NetLogo software design and implementation. I plan to finish my software implementation in early March and then conduct a sequence of testing cases. I plan to work on my final report and poster in early April.

I love the look of them, but they are just too small for the sizing. They have to go back.
The style of this shoe is lovely; however, it is made of some sort of material that has a very strong smell, which stayed with it even after wearing it all day. I am sensitive to odors so it was not pleasant for me but the actually shoe is lovely, well made, and very nicely styled. If you can deal with the scent, it is okay.

DENVER (AP) — The federal government is seeking to overturn an order blocking it from penalizing a Colorado company whose health care coverage doesn't include birth control.
The health care package pushed by President Barack Obama's administration generally requires no-cost preventive care coverage to women for items including contraceptives. Hercules Industries Inc. is run by the Newland family, whose Roman Catholic beliefs condemn contraception.
Last year a federal judge issued a preliminary injunction blocking Hercules from having to offer contraceptive coverage while its lawsuit challenging the mandate proceeds. The company says it should be exempt on religious grounds.
In a brief filed Friday in the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, the federal government contends the for-profit heating and cooling company isn't a religious organization that qualifies for an exemption.

Today is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. In observation of this important day, CLINIC recognizes affiliate, Mil Mujeres for their inspiring efforts on behalf of vulnerable, immigrant women. Founded in 2007, Mil Mujeres provides charitable legal immigration services to survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. With locations in California, Florida, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, and Washington, DC, Mil Mujeres has been a CLINIC subscriber sCitizenship Integration Toolkit - Model Programs
Looking for ideas to promote and encourage immigrant integration within your community? The General Integration Resources page is a great place to find information on integration program planning, training and tools on how integration can be promoted locally, and performance measurement strategies. CLINIC offers model programs that spotlight agency-wide immigrant integration initiatives across our network. Additionally, tools and trainings provided can increase the impact of immigrant integration programs at the local level.Catholics Welcome Executive Action, Urge Further Reform
Catholic leaders, including CLINIC Executive Director Jeanne Atkinson, applaud immigration action and express the need for further action.

Visual and safety features have changed, and maintaining awareness of format changes to the consular ID cards is essential.CLINIC Trains Hundreds on Representing Unaccompanied Children
As the news of the large numbers of unaccompanied children apprehended along the border began to break, CLINIC went into high gear to figure out how we could support our affiliates and other service providers inundated with requests for assistance from this vulnerable population. Training is one of the things CLINIC does best so we started to think about what type of training would be most useful.

First Try: iPhone 5. Not only is this the coolest iPhone, it's arguably the most attractive mobile phone yet made
The Independent was the first UK broadsheet to get hold of the iPhone 5
Another year, another iPhone. Though at first glance the iPhone 5 looks just like an iPhone 4S that has been stretched like toffee, there's a lot more to it. We'll come back to the new software on the iPhone next time – it's the new hardware you want to hear about first, right?
Let's start with the screen. It has the same pixel density as the iPhone 4S, that's 326 pixels per inch or enough, Apple says, to mean you can't see individual dots in normal use. But if you thought the Retina Display, as it's called, introduced two and a bit years ago, couldn't be improved, check this out. A new manufacturing process has eliminated layers to make it feel like it's more in-your-face. The colour saturation is eye-popping: every time you look at it, you notice that it's brighter and more vivid than before.
This is now a widescreen display, which takes some getting used to. Most phones have a wider or a shorter screen – the proportions are different here. The pay-off is an extra row of app icons and more real estate in the apps themselves. For many Apple programs like Mail and the word-processing app Pages, this looks great.
But third-party apps, for now, look as they always did, designed for a 3.5in display but now starring on a 4in version. There are black bars at either end. The first time I saw this, I found it deeply intrusive and disconcerting. Within five minutes I had failed to notice it any more.
None the less, it'll be better when the app developers rejig their offerings to make the most of the extra space.
The iPhone 5 has a new processor, the A6, which promises to be twice as fast as the last model. It certainly nips along at great speed with nary a lag, whatever you're doing.
Of course, the test of the CPU will come when using the phone in a 4G-compatible location. The new iPhone comes with 4G LTE capabilities. This means it has the latest, fastest data connectivity. But the UK's first 4G LTE network is EE, parent company of T-Mobile and Orange. The EE 4G network is switched on but still in testing stage.
By Christmas, 16 UK cities will have this fast system in place, so there should be a substantial increase in data speeds, making movie streaming, web browsing and file downloads much faster than before. This is a key differentiator between the iPhone 5 and other phones in the UK.
There will be other 4G handsets – the Nokia Lumia 920 is due before the end of the year and is outstanding – but Apple's is the first in the UK, even if the increased speeds are only available to EE customers.
Expect fast data to drain the juice more quickly, though this battery seems very efficient, with longer between-charge life than before.
If you're buying the iPhone on O2 or Vodafone, the 3G data traffic will still be faster than on earlier Apple phones, though not a match for 4G. And if you're a Three customer, you get a bonus later. Three will have 4G on the iPhone's frequency, but it won't go live until next autumn. Think of it as a speed boost halfway through your contract.
What all iPhone users will get on day one is the world's slimmest smartphone (though don't expect that record to stand for too long). It feels great in the hand – super light and thin enough to be a catwalk model. And the new aluminium back, smooth but matte and colour-matched the front of the phone, feels especially good to the touch. In the hand, this is leagues ahead of the iPhone 4S.
The iPhone 5 camera, like last year, is an 8-megapixel snapper, but the redesigned phone has led to a smaller package. The wide aperture (f/2.0) is good, the backside illuminated sensor means more light gets through and the lens complex certainly delivers impressive shots.
And the new Panorama feature is enjoyable, creating wide landscape shots with a slow, sweeping movement: an onscreen arrow shows you if you're going too fast (and it'll be on the older iPhone 4S by the magic of a software update, too).
So what's not so good? There's a new, smaller docking connector which will be a nuisance for a lot of people. Sure, many speakers use Apple's wireless AirPlay system instead of a dock – like Jawbone's excellent Jambox and Pure's versatile Sensia 200D radio. But there are millions of speakers in current use which have the old docking system.
The new connector is definitely better, and this change was always going to be a painful moment. You'll need to buy an adaptor for £25. This price may drop, especially if third-party manufacturers can get in on the act, but for many this will be an annoyance.
There's no NFC in the iPhone 5 – the contactless data transfer system that the London Underground Oyster card system uses, for instance. Lots of smartphones have this. Apple clearly decided that the technology is not ready, or anyway not desirable. And its absence will certainly slow NFC's uptake elsewhere.
Oh yes, and there's another new sim card. Just got used to that little micro-sim which Apple introduced and everyone else has now installed in its high-end blowers? Well, there's another drop in size to the nano-sim included here. It's only an issue if you switch sim cards between handsets. As some people do.
Overall, these are small complaints. This is a beautiful, powerful phone – Apple's clean-cut, chic design language has reached new heights. More importantly it's a phone that, once it's in your hand, is very hard to resist.
The new features
Screen is 4in, with 16:9 proportions for better video playback and is much more vivid and colourful.
The new feature here is a much whizzier Maps app which includes photo-realistic 3D cityscapes for some areas.
The new, compact connector is easier to use, but many speaker docks will need an adaptor.
Camera includes a neat Panorama function: sweep phone sideways and software stitches images together.
Has prospect of super-fast internet using 4G network. But it'll only be available to customers of EE (or as you know it, Orange and T-Mobile).
French store staff threaten to spoil party
Staff at Apple's two stores in Paris are threatening to take strike action on Friday's highly anticipated launch day for the iPhone 5.
Talks are reported to have broken down over the workers' demands for wage increases as well as better working conditions including a drinking fountain, lunch vouchers and holiday vouchers.
Staff are also requesting a "13th month" of pay, a practice common in France where an additional month's basic salary is granted at the end of the year.

Tables are being set in the main corridor of Jerusalem's Reut School. Tablecloths are unfolded and spread, chairs are arranged and small side dishes of humous, tossed salad and pickled carrots are laid out on pretty ceramic plates. On a white board the menu is displayed, written out in erasable red marker. Nearby, a group of about 20 elderly men and women, obviously not students of this middle and high school, stands waiting, bundled up in scarves and winter coats. Some students, carrying books, shout and chat as they pass the elderly group on their way out of school. Others grab aprons and begin working, talking with the elderly as they set up. Three times a week, between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m., students at Reut - which calls itself a religious and pluralistic school - run a soup kitchen for people who need a free, hot dinner. Private donors fund the project, and Reut's students, who come from Reform, Conservative, Orthodox and secular families, do all the work, except for the cooking. Reut, the brainchild of Orthodox Rabbi Aryeh Geiger, a clinical psychologist and veteran school principal in his early 50s, offers 35 social-activism projects run by Reut's 300 or so students. Everything is voluntary and the 7th through 12th graders can opt to get involved, or not, in a wide range of projects, including tutoring Ethiopian students, preparing 160 hot and cold lunches daily for needy school children, preparing 400 parcels monthly for needy families, and accompanying handicapped fellow students to physical therapy or the park. Most do get involved, said a ninth-grader named Yuval, because "Reut is a community, not just a school." But the Reut School, which began nine years ago with 130 students, is bracing itself for a major change. Geiger, the innovator and moving force behind its creation, is dying. At the end of last year Geiger notified the students, teachers and parents that he had been diagnosed with terminal cancer. "But I'm gonna fight it," Geiger reportedly promised, then asked, "Any questions?" Geiger, who appeared healthy and in good spirits as he bustled around Reut this week and last, refrained from an interview with The Jerusalem Post, explaining that he was saving his energies for school matters. Paul Lichtenstein, the deputy principal of the school, who has known Geiger for 30 years, said Reut is Geiger's life. "There were times when you could drive by here at two, three in the morning and there would be a light on in Aryeh's office," he said. "Every day that he is here prolongs his life." Reut's director of development, Ruth Ritterband, who is a graduate of Columbia University and a veteran headmistress of various elite Jewish schools in the US, said her first job interview after immigrating to Israel was at Reut. "After I met Aryeh I knew this was where I wanted to work," she said. "I had a hunch, and I was right." Both Ritterband and Lichtenstein are planning on leaving Reut at the end of the school year. But both are optimistic about Reut's future, with or without Geiger. "I think it is no insult to say that today Reut is larger than Aryeh," Ritterband said. Despite Geiger's uncertain future and the resignations of Lichtenstein and Ritterband, and despite the cramped quarters at the school's present venue - located between the Greek Colony and Old Katamon - registration is up. Space limitations force the school to turn away a large percentage of applicants. For a recent open house, 30 students notified the school they were coming and 50 showed up. From an unscientific examination of the student body, the majority appeared to be Ashkenazi. Parents have organized to put pressure on the Jerusalem Municipality to give Reut the top two floors of the building where it is presently located. The rental contract held by Mifneh, a school for delinquent boys that presently occupies those stories, expires this year. In addition to its social action projects, Reut also runs a training program for school principals and other senior educators from diverse backgrounds. Once a week, for eight hours straight, they come to Reut from all over the country to learn about Geiger's model. "We are not encouraging people to copy what we are doing here," said Tchiya Herman, who runs the training program. "We have educators from settlements and from Tel Aviv, from the Left and the Right, religious and secular. Obviously, each has a unique and very different vision of how they would like to build their school. Rather, we try to help each of them realize their own personal vision." Herman said that while Reut was heavily influenced by the educational theories of Janusz Korczak, especially with regard to empowerment of the students and their involvement in various aspects of running the school - such as meting out punishments or deciding whether ear-piercing for boys will be permitted (it isn't) - Reut is very different from many "democratic" schools. "We make a clear distinction between student and teacher roles," Herman said. "The students have no say in matters of curriculum, of what is learned and what is not. "But we are also careful to protect the human dignity of each and every student. We try to create an atmosphere in which personal success does not come at the expense of one's peers. We teach that creating a friendly environment of mutual support is conducive to the success of everyone." Attendance at prayer is mandatory, prayer is not. On the 10th of Tevet, a fast day, the Post attended the afternoon prayer at Reut. The room was packed. A row of tables separates the boys' and girls' sections. Most of the students did not take prayer books or seem to be praying, but all were respectfully quiet for the duration of the prayers. At the end of the recitation of Avinu Malkenu (Our Father our King), which was led by one of Reut's students, a beautiful tenor voice coming from the back of the room broke through the mumbling of prayers and impatient shifting: "Let this hour be the hour of loving-kindness and a time of favor before You." It was Aryeh Geiger and his singing was infectious. Soon most of the kids were singing along. In a meeting with the Post a few days later, a group of Reut's students was asked what the school would be like without its founder. "It wouldn't be the same," they answered and nervously changed the subject.

Potter once handled corporate communications for global insurance giant Cigna and said he helped orchestrate the defeat of the Clinton administration's proposed health care overhaul in the 1990s.
"Insurance companies have benefitted for years by keeping people in the dark," by spending less and less each year on health care and "by gouging older people every year," he said in a phone interview.
Potter's primary message focuses on the "patient protection" portion of the health care reform law, and he wants consumers to know how to hold insurance companies accountable under the three-year-old law that will see expanded implementation next year.
Among those protections are a prohibition against denying coverage based on pre-existing conditions, canceling a policy when a policyholder gets sick and the formation of state health insurance exchanges that will give consumers the ability to shop and compare "apples-to-apples" health plans and rates.
"People don't really understand that a big reason for the law is to protect consumers from abuses of common practices that are really responsible for leaving so many people uninsured in the first place," Potter said.
He said many of his former colleagues are "undoubtedly behind the efforts to mislead people" about how the ACA and consumer protections are supposed to work.
Cigna officials have not returned several phone calls seeking comment on Potter's statements. In a previously published statement, the company said that it "strongly disagree(s) with the suggestion that, motivated by profits, the insurance industry has deliberately attempted to confuse or unfairly treat covered individuals."
Potter said he will host a question-and-answer session after his presentation, and he hopes it will give consumers more information "to know how to protect themselves, so that insurance company interests do not prevail."
He said insurance companies do not like the consumer protections "because of the potential for their profit margins to be squeezed."
"I know how they have tried to influence both the way the health care reform law took shape, and now they're trying to shape how it's implemented," Potter said.
Potter's presentation will be sponsored by Missouri Health Care for All and the Missouri Rural Crisis Center.
