ABSTRACT: C-glycosides are characterized by their C-C bonds in which the anomeric carbon of the sugar moieties is directly bound to the carbon atom of aglycon. C-glycosides are remarkably stable, as their C-C bonds are resistant to glycosidase or acid hydrolysis. A variety of plant species are known to accumulate C-glycosylflavonoids; however, the genes encoding for enzymes that catalyze C-glycosylation of flavonoids have been identified only from rice and maize, and have not been identified from dicot plants. In this study, we identified C-glucosyltransferase gene from a dicot plant, buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum M.). We purified two isozymes from buckwheat seedlings that catalyze C-glucosylation of 2-hydroxyflavanones, which are expressed specifically in the cotyledon during seed germination. Following purification we isolated the cDNA corresponding to each isozyme [FeCGTa (UGT708C1) and FeCGTb (UGT708C2)]. When expressed in Escherichia coli, both proteins demonstrated C-glucosylation activity toward 2-hydroxyflavanones, dihydrochalcone, trihydroxyacetophenones, and other related compounds with chemical structures similar to 2',4',6'-trihydroxyacetophenone. Molecular phylogenetic analysis of plant glycosyltransferases shows that flavonoid C-glycosyltransferases form a different clade with other functionally analyzed plant glycosyltransferases.

ABSTRACT: A full-length cDNA coding for a putative adenosine deaminase (Fv-ada) was isolated from the basidiomycete Flammulina velutipes. Fv-ada encodes a polypeptide consisting of 537 amino acid residues, which has a consensus sequence conserved among adenosine deaminase-related growth factors (ADGF) found in several metazoa, including chordates and insects. Fv-ada transcript was detected at all stages of growth in dikaryotic F. velutipes cells, with a peak at the primordial stage. Heterologous expression of Fv-ada in the yeast Pichia pastoris produced recombinant Fv-ADA that catalyzed the conversion of adenosine to inosine. Dikaryotic mycelia from F. velutipes were transformed with the binary plasmid pFungiway-Fv-ada, which was designed to suppress the expression of Fv-ada through RNA interference. The growth rates of the resulting transformants were retarded in response to the degree of suppression, indicating that Fv-ada plays an important role in the mycelial growth of F. velutipes. These results suggested that ADGF could function as growth factors in fungi, as is seen in other eukaryotes.Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering 11/2012; · 1.74 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Plant HXXXD acyltransferase-catalyzed malonylation is an important modification reaction in elaborating the structural diversity of flavonoids and anthocyanins, and a universal adaptive mechanism to detoxify xenobiotics. Nicotiana tabacum malonyltransferase 1 (NtMaT1) is a member of anthocyanin acyltransferase subfamily that uses malonyl-CoA (MLC) as donor catalyzing transacylation in a range of flavonoid and naphthol glucosides. To gain insights into the molecular basis underlying its catalytic mechanism and versatile substrate specificity, we resolved the X-ray crystal structure of NtMaT1 to 3.1 Å resolution. The structure comprises two α/β mixed subdomains, as typically found in the HXXXD acyltransferases. The partial electron density map of malonyl-CoA allowed us to reliably dock the entire molecule into the solvent channel and subsequently define the binding sites for both donor and acceptor substrates. MLC bound to the NtMaT1 occupies one end of the long solvent channel between two subdomains. On superimposing and comparing the structure of NtMaT1 with that of an enzyme from anthocyanin acyltransferase subfamily from red chrysanthemum (Dm3Mat3) revealed large architectural variation in the binding sites, both for the acyl donor and for the acceptor, although their overall protein folds are structurally conserved. Consequently, the shape and the interactions of malonyl-CoA with the binding sites' amino acid residues differ substantially. These major local architectural disparities point to the independent, divergent evolution of plant HXXXD acyltransferases in different species. The structural flexibility of the enzyme and the amendable binding pattern of the substrates provide a basis for the evolution of the distinct, versatile substrate specificity of plant HXXXD acyltransferases.Planta 05/2012; 236(3):781-93. · 3.38 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Chitiniphilus shinanonensis strain SAY3(T) is a chitinolytic bacterium isolated from moat water of Ueda Castle in Nagano Prefecture, Japan. Fifteen genes encoding putative chitinolytic enzymes (chiA-chiO) have been isolated from this bacterium. Five of these constitute a single operon (chiCDEFG). The open reading frames of chiC, chiD, chiE, and chiG show sequence similarity to family 18 chitinases, while chiF encodes a polypeptide with two chitin-binding domains but no catalytic domain. Each of the five genes was successfully expressed in Escherichia coli, and the resulting recombinant proteins were characterized. Four of the recombinant proteins (ChiC, ChiD, ChiE, and ChiG) exhibited endo-type chitinase activity toward chitinous substrates, while ChiF showed no chitinolytic activity. In contrast to most endo-type chitinases, which mainly produce a dimer of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (GlcNAc) as final product, ChiG completely split the GlcNAc dimer into GlcNAc monomers, indicating that it is a novel chitinase.Bioscience Biotechnology and Biochemistry 01/2012; 76(3):517-22. · 1.27 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A gene coding for a major extracellular chitosanase was isolated from Aspergillus oryzae IAM2660. It had a multi-domain structure composed of a signal peptide, a catalytic domain, Thr- and Pro-rich linkers, and repeated peptides (the R3 domain) from the N-terminus. The R3 domain bound to insoluble powder chitosan, but it did not promote the hydrolysis rate of the chitosanase to any extent.Bioscience Biotechnology and Biochemistry 01/2012; 76(1):193-5. · 1.27 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Chitiniphilus shinanonensis type strain SAY3(T) is a strongly chitinolytic bacterium, originally isolated from the moat water in Ueda, Japan. To elucidate the chitinolytic activity of this strain, 15 genes (chiA-chiO) coding for putative chitin-degrading enzymes were isolated from a genomic library. Sequence analysis revealed the genes comprised 12 family 18 chitinases, a family 19 chitinase, a family 20 β-N-acetylglucosaminidase, and a polypeptide with a chitin-binding domain but devoid of a catalytic domain. Two operons were detected among the sequences: chiCDEFG and chiLM. The gene coding for the polypeptide (chiN) showed sequence similarity to family 19 chitinases and was successfully expressed in Escherichia coli. ChiN demonstrated a multi-domain structure, composed of the N-terminal, two chitin-binding domains connected by a Pro- and Thr-rich linker, and a family 19 catalytic domain located at the C-terminus. The recombinant protein rChiN catalyzed an endo-type cleavage of N-acetyl-d-glucosamine oligomers, and also degraded insoluble chitin and soluble chitosan (degree of deacetylation of 80%). rChiN exhibited an inhibitory effect on hyphal growth of the fungus Trichoderma reesei. The chitin-binding domains of ChiN likely play an important role in the degradation of insoluble chitin, and are responsible for a growth inhibitory effect on fungi.Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering 12/2011; 113(3):293-9. · 1.74 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Agrobacterium tumefaciens was used to transform the vegetative dikaryotic mycelium of Flammulina velutipes using a hygromycin B resistance gene as selectable marker. The gene coding for urogen III methyltransferase (cob) was introduced into F. velutipes dikaryotic cells. The resulting transformant cells generated a bright red fluorescence, indicating that cob is promising as a reporter gene in F. velutipes.Bioscience Biotechnology and Biochemistry 11/2010; 74(11):2327-9. · 1.27 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Tobacco cells (Nicotiana tabacum L.) accumulate harmful naphthols in the form of malonylated glucosides (Taguchi et al., 2005). Here, we showed that the malonylation of glucosides is a system to metabolize xenobiotics and is common to higher plants. Moreover, some plantlets including Arabidopsis thaliana excreted some of the incorporated naphthols into the culture media as their glucosides. In order to analyze the function of malonylation in the metabolism of these xenobiotics, we identified a malonyltransferase gene (At5g39050) responsible for the malonylation of these compounds in A. thaliana. The recombinant enzyme had malonyltransferase activity toward several phenolic glucosides including naphthol glucosides. A knockout mutant of At5g39050 (pmat1) exposed to naphthols accumulated only a few malonylglucosides in the cell, and released larger amounts of simple glucosides into the culture medium. In contrast, forced expression of At5g39050 in the pmat1 mutant resulted in increased malonylglucoside accumulation and decreased glucoside excretion to the media. The results provided clear evidence of whether the release of glucosides or the storage of malonylglucosides was determined by the At5g39050 expression level. A similar event in naphthol metabolism was observed in the tobacco mutant with a suppressed malonyltransferase gene (NtMaT1). These results suggested that malonylation could be a key reaction to separate the way of xenobiotics disposition, that is, release from cell surface or storage in vacuoles.The Plant Journal 09/2010; 63(6):1031-41. · 6.82 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The temporal changes of a bacterial community in soil with chitin or chitosan added were analyzed by PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) targeting the 16S rRNA gene using total DNAs prepared from the community. Band patterns of PCR-DGGE confirmed that 31 species become predominant after the addition of chitin or chitosan. The determination of the nucleotide sequences of the bands of the 31 species indicated that 20 species belonged to the division Proteobacteria, and that the genus Cellvibrio was apparently predominant among them (7/20). The 16S rRNA sequences of the 16 deduced species (16/31) showed less than 98% similarities to those of previously identified bacteria, indicating that the species were derived from unidentified bacteria. The total community DNAs extracted from bacterial cells adsorbed on the surface of flakes of chitin and chitosan placed in a river, a moat, or soil were subjected to PCR-DGGE to examine the extent of diversity of chitinolytic bacteria among different environments. The predominant species significantly differed between the chitin and chitosan placed in the river and moat, but not so much between those placed in the soil. The large difference between the diversities of the three bacterial communities indicated that a wide variety of bacteria including unidentified ones are involved in the degradation of chitin and chitosan in the above-mentioned natural environments.Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering 05/2010; 109(5):472-8. · 1.74 Impact Factor -
Article: Construction and analysis of a bacterial community exhibiting strong chitinolytic activity.
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A stable bacterial community expressing strong chitinolytic activity was constructed by mixing and cultivating chitinolytic bacteria collected from different natural sources. The DNA fragment pattern, after PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) targeting 16S rRNA genes using total DNA prepared from whole cells, indicated that the community was composed of four dominant bacterial species. All four species were isolated on agar medium, and one strain, SAY3, was deduced to be a novel species belonging to a new genus based on the 16S rRNA nucleotide sequence. The other strains showed high similarity in their 16S rRNA sequences to those of previously identified bacteria (Acinetobacter and Microbacterium). Strain SAY3 degraded and utilized larger particles of chitin faster than the community, indicating that it plays an important role in the chitin degradation conferred by the community.Bioscience Biotechnology and Biochemistry 03/2010; 74(3):636-40. · 1.27 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The filamentous fungus Coleophoma empetri F-11899 produces an echinocandin-like compound FR901379, the original source for micafungin which is prescribed to treat deep-seated mycoses. Despite its industrial importance, no genetic information on C. empetri F-11899 is currently available. To characterize FR901379 biosynthetic genes by insertional mutagenesis and to improve the compound production genetically, Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation (ATMT) was attempted to make genetic manipulation possible in this strain. The optimum conditions for ATMT of C. empetri were determined for the cell density of bacteria, time period of co-cultivation and types of filters in co-cultivation. Using the established ATMT method, the hygromycin B resistant gene was successfully transferred into the genome of C. empetri F-11899 and stably maintained even after a serial passage. Some of these results will be applicable for ATMT of various filamentous fungi.Current Genetics 10/2009; 55(6):623-30. · 1.71 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A bacterial strain capable of degrading chitin, strain SAY3T, was isolated from moat water of Ueda Castle in Nagano Prefecture, Japan. The strain was gram-negative, curved rod-shaped, facultatively anaerobic, and motile with a single polar flagellum. It grew well with chitin as a sole carbon source. The cellular fatty acids profiles showed the presence of C16:1 omega7c and C16:0 as the major components. The G+C content of DNA was 67.6 mol% and Q-8 was the major respiratory quinone. A 16S rRNA gene sequence-based phylogenetic analysis showed the strain belonged to the family Neisseriaceae but was distantly related (94% identity) to any previously known species. Since the strain was clearly distinct from closely related genera in phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, it should be classified under a new genus and a new species. We propose the name Chitiniphilus shinanonensis gen. nov., sp. nov. The type strain is SAY3T (=NBRC 104970T=NICMB 14509T).The Journal of General and Applied Microbiology 05/2009; 55(2):147-53. · 0.60 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Fv-pda, a gene coding for chitin deacetylase (CDA), was isolated from the basidiomycete Flammulina velutipes by differential display targeted for genes specifically expressed during fruiting body development. The fv-pda ORF comprises 250 amino acid residues and is interrupted by 10 introns. The fv-pda cDNA was expressed in the yeast Pichia pastoris, and the resulting recombinant FV-PDA was used for enzymatic characterization. The recombinant FV-PDA catalyses deacetylation of N-acetyl-chitooligomers, from dimer to pentamer, glycol chitin and colloidal chitin. The fv-pda was specifically expressed through the entire stage of fruiting body development, and the transcript was abundant in stipes of mature fruiting bodies. These results suggest that CDA plays an important role in the process of fruiting of F. velutipes.FEMS Microbiology Letters 01/2009; 289(2):130-7. · 2.72 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A gene (cob) conferring red fluorescence on Escherichia coli cells was isolated from an environmental DNA library constructed from soil bacteria. The nucleotide sequence showed a single open reading frame (ORF) encoding a polypeptide of 257 amino acid residues responsible for the red fluorescence. The deduced amino acid sequence of the ORF showed significant similarity (less than 75% identity) to uroporphyrinogen III methyltransferases from various bacteria. Cell extracts from the E. coli transformant had a spectrum pattern of fluorescence corresponding to trimethylpyrrocorphin or sirohydrochlorin that was absent in the control cells harboring the vector alone. Expression of the cob gene in the fungus Fusarium oxysporum conferred red fluorescence on the host cells, indicating that it is a promising transcriptional reporter in fungi as well as bacteria.Bioscience Biotechnology and Biochemistry 08/2008; 72(7):1908-14. · 1.27 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A number of clubroot resistant (CR) Chinese cabbage cultivars have been developed in Japan using resistant genes from CR European fodder turnips (B. rapa ssp. rapifera). Clubroot resistance in European fodder turnips are known to be controlled by the combined action of several dominant resistance genes. We have developed three Chinese cabbage clubroot-resistant doubled haploid (DH) lines--T136-8, K10, and C9--which express resistance in different manners against two isolates of Plasmodiophora brassicae, M85 and K04. Depending on the isolates, we identified two CR loci, CRk and CRc. CRk was identified by quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis of an F(2) population derived from a cross between K10 and Q5. This locus showed resistance to both isolates and is located close to Crr3 in linkage group R3. The other locus, CRc was identified by QTL analysis of an F(2) population derived from a cross between C9 and susceptible DH line, 6R. This locus was mapped to linkage group R2 and is independent from any published CR loci. We developed sequence-tagged site markers linked to this locus.Theoretical and Applied Genetics 08/2008; 117(5):759-67. · 3.51 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) marker, HC352b, has identified as closely linked to the CRa locus responsible for clubroot resistance (CR) in a study dissecting CR loci in Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L. ssp pekinensis). Unfortunately, the RFLP pattern, including HC352b detected by the cDNA clone HC352, was complicated and confused in its interpretation because it represented multiple-copy loci. To provide a practical HC352b marker for CR breeding programs, a sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) marker was constructed along the analysis of HC352 genes, followed by its evaluation for CR selection. Schematic characterization of signals was achieved by identification of HC352 homologous genes with their restriction sites, employing CRa-positive and -negative doubled haploid (DH) lines. Genomic sequence information from a set of HC352 homologous genes was analyzed to identify the CRa linked paralog HC352b, followed by the successful designation of a SCAR marker. This correctly predicted the CR phenotypes of all tested individuals of F2 and back-crossed progenies.01/2008; - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Members of the BAHD family of plant acyl transferases are very versatile catalytically, and are thought to be able to evolve new substrate specificities rapidly. Acylation of anthocyanins occurs in many plant species and affects anthocyanin stability and light absorption in solution. The versatility of BAHD acyl transferases makes it difficult to identify genes encoding enzymes with defined substrate specificities on the basis of structural homology to genes of known catalytic function alone. Consequently, we have used a modification to standard functional genomics strategies, incorporating co-expression profiling with anthocyanin accumulation, to identify genes encoding three anthocyanin acyl transferases from Arabidopsis thaliana. We show that the activities of these enzymes influence the stability of anthocyanins at neutral pH, and some acylations also affect the anthocyanin absorption maxima. These properties make the BAHD acyl transferases suitable tools for engineering anthocyanins for an improved range of biotechnological applications.The Plant Journal 05/2007; 50(4):678-95. · 6.82 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Using fluorescence differential display, cDNAs specifically expressed at the primordial stage of fruiting body development were isolated from the basidiomycete, Flammulina velutipes. Seventy-five cDNAs were sequenced and compared with the amino-acid sequences of proteins in the database by BLASTX search. Significant similarity was found for 29 cDNAs coding for proteins with known function, GTP-binding protein, growth factor, ubiquitin-proteasome, cytochrome P450 and hydrophobin, all of which would be associated with fruiting body development. Seventeen cDNAs were not similar to proteins in the database and may represent unique genes that play specific roles in the process of fruiting in F. velutipes.FEMS Microbiology Letters 02/2006; 254(1):165-72. · 2.72 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Tobacco cells (Nicotiana tabacum L. Bright Yellow T-13) exposed to harmful naphthols accumulate them as glucosylated and further modified compounds [Taguchi et al. (2003a) Plant Sci. 164, 231-240]. In this study, we identified the accumulated compounds to be 6'-O-malonylated glucosides of naphthols. Cells treated with various phenolic compounds accumulated the flavonoids mainly as malonylglucosides. To clarify the function of this malonylation in tobacco, we isolated the cDNA encoding a malonyltransferase (NtMaT1) from a cDNA library derived from tobacco cells. The heterologous expression of the gene in Escherichia coli revealed that the recombinant enzyme had malonyltransferase activity against several phenolic glucosides such as flavonoid 7-O-glucosides, flavonoid 3-O-glucosides and naphthol glucosides. The substrate preference of the enzyme was similar to that of the tobacco cell extract. Malonylation activity in the transgenic cells markedly decreased with the suppression of the expression of NtMaT1 mRNA in tobacco BY-2 cells by RNA interference. The compounds administered to the transgenic cells were accumulated in the cells as glucosides or other modified compounds in place of malonylglucosides. These results show that NtMaT1 is the main catalyst of malonylation on glucosides of xenobiotic flavonoids and naphthols in tobacco plants.The Plant Journal 06/2005; 42(4):481-91. · 6.82 Impact Factor -
Article: Characterization of the Arabidopsis thaliana mutant pcb2 which accumulates divinyl chlorophylls.
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We characterized the pcb2 (pale-green and chlorophyll b reduced 2) mutant. We found through electron microscopic observation that chloroplasts of pcb2 mesophyll cells lacked distinctive grana stacks. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis showed that the pcb2 mutant accumulated divinyl chlorophylls, and the relative amount of divinyl chlorophyll b was remarkably less than that of divinyl chlorophyll a. The responsible gene was mapped in an area of 190 kb length at the upper arm of the 5th chromosome, and comparison of DNA sequences revealed a single nucleotide substitution causing a nonsense mutation in At5g18660. Complementation analysis confirmed that the wild-type of this gene suppressed the phenotypes of the mutation. Antisense transformants of the gene also accumulated divinyl chlorophylls. The genes homologous to At5g18660 are conserved in a broad range of species in the plant kingdom, and have similarity to reductases. Our results suggest that the PCB2 product is divinyl protochlorophyllide 8-vinyl reductase.Plant and Cell Physiology 04/2005; 46(3):467-73. · 4.98 Impact Factor

Very very sturdy plates that are very well made, in turn im not afraid to really fill them up and give them to customers to take out of the store without worry of them breaking before they get out of the car.

Outrageous Aspirations Come True |
Published Thursday, December 8, 2011 7:00 am |
Outrageous aspirations - thats the Charlotte Chambers mantra for 2012. Two words that represent endless possibilities for those willing to think out of the box and reach for what others deem unattainable.
In an effort to inspire members, the chamber sponsored a BHAG or Big Hairy Audacious Goals contest in the fall. Six Charlotteans were selected and given the rare opportunity to share their big ideas at Annual Retreat.
One of the six, Kristina Cruise, is well on her way to achieving her goal of collecting a million books for her non-profit organization, Promising Pages. The grassroots group gathers and then donates new and gently used childrens books to less fortunate kids.
Since sharing our audacious goal with the chamber, we have had a number of members reach out to help. Stoney Sellars of Technology Project Management has picked up our printing costs. We were gifted a table at the Governor's Women's Conference by Mark Levi of Total Event Productions, and we have linked up with Michael Barnes of Carolina Connections, Inc. and Business Leaders of Charlotte (BLOC) and will be applying for their 2012 funding, said Cruise.
The list of contributions is impressive. Just this week, Cruise was contacted by David Longo of Carolina Business Interiors about the companys desire to donate storage space to house all the books. Its so awesome, a thrilled Cruise told me. It will fit as many books as six, two car garages and has 50 foot ceilings! They are sending a truck out to pick up all of the boxes of books from our house next week.
And thats not all, CBI also presented Promising Pages with a check for a thousand dollars. It is absolutely incredible just takes my breath away, Cruise beamed.
As for the future, Cruise hopes to partner with local hospitals for book drives and has met with officials at UNC Charlotte. The organization has even established an internship program. We are taking our Big Hairy Audacious Goal very seriously. We know it will be a huge success based on the response we have already received.

Teamboard TMWM6250EM Interactive Whiteboard is a multi-purpose whiteboard that can be used as an interactive whiteboard, a capture board or a projector screen. It has a diagonal 77 inch sized board on which you can write using your fingers, stylus or dry erase markers.
Teamboard TMWM6250EM Interactive Whiteboard has an EVS surface that makes it possible to use it as a copy board or a projector surface. The surface is easy to clean, and erases text written by dry erase markers. If you mistakenly wrote text using a permanent marker, it can be erased too. But writing frequently with a permanent marker on the surface should be avoided. The written notes can be saved to your computer. The Teamboard TMWM6250EM can be used to view product or corporate videos. A projector can be connected to play videos on the low glare matte white EVS surface. The surface has a 160 degrees viewing angle which makes it easy to view the presentation from different angles.
Teamboard TMWM6250EM comes with the Interactive Whiteboard software that makes the board function as an interactive whiteboard. The software is compatible with both MAC and PC, and can be upgraded freely. The software integrates with Microsoft Office, and you can edit and save files. The software toolbar contains function shortcuts that allow you to draw and annotate live images.

"I don't think I could have had a better experience with Clary Business Machines. From talking with the Consultants over the phone, to placing my order, I felt completely taken care of through the entire process of purchasing my tablet. It was the best buying experience I have ever had working with an online retailer. Clary has my business for life, and I would refer them to everyone I know."
"This is used by a group of Business Analysts currently designing a new workflow solution for our firm (major project). Since we use process maps as our basic work tool, this board was exactly what was needed to create and maintain our maps from design sessions. We determined that 80% of the normal whiteboard work had to be repeated a some later date. Now we simply pull up the clearly dated map copy for comparative work purposes, I calculated that it would take only 35 saved hours for the board to pay for itself. After a week of heavy use, it looks as though we will save around 12 hours per week by circulating copied maps. This will improve communication (same map and notes for all), improve meeting attention (no note taking), and reduce backfill reviews. Now the only problem we have is that other areas of our IT Department want to use it. Chuck Haag Vice President Process Development Unit national Default Exchange"

Union Seniority.
The Welfare State.
They all are a rebellion [against] the idea that people should gain rewards to the extent that they actually contribute productively to a task.
They like Ivy League credentials better than they like demonstrated competence for the same reason medieval nobles liked blood lines and disdained trade. Actually DOING things is disreputable, ''rootless,'' and unkind, and the people who DO things are not to be trusted.''

Because nothing sells like dead children! -Nationwide marketing department.
191Because nothing sells like dead children!Posted by: Lizzy at February 02, 2015 11:12 AM (ABcz/)
Yeah, especially [to the] parents of dead children who got an unexpected sucker-punch during the Super Bowl.
Thought you were going to kick back for a football game and party w/friends? Hah! We're going to remind you you'll never do that or anything else that's fun w/your kid. You're welcome for ''raising your awareness'' and ''starting the conversation!!''
225But just because you can recognize a trend doesn't mean you need to base an ad campaign on it.Posted by: Lizzy at February 02, 2015 11:19 AM (ABcz/)
Saw some Nationwide people interviewed on CNN. They were just like SJWs - they claim they didn't want to sell insurance, the wanted to raise awareness and start a conversation on safety. Basically, they wanted to lecture to parents that they should take better care of their kids (so they don't have to pay out the insurance?).
It was the exact same goal as the ''Run like a girl'' ad: let me interrupt your super bowl fun to lecture you on what I think you should be talking about.
237 @191 Lizzy, I thought the same thing. I know 3 families that lost kids to accidental deaths or illness and they live day to freaking day missing them. I cannot imagine the pain parents who lose children go through. For some insipid marketing ''social'' messaging, Nationwide crossed a line. How come no social messaging about living off the dole your whole life and hating whitey, or blacks that try to lift themselves up? A social message maybe on paid trouble-makers inciting riots for their own cause at the expense of the fabric of community.Posted by: yip at February 02, 2015 11:26 AM (84SRe)
No social message about demonizing false rapey allegations and how it often ruins the life of the accused. Or the one about poor and downtrodden foreigners being enticed to break our immigration laws and get public assistance at the expense of everyone that plays by the rules.
Thanks Nationwide for showing us what happens when your marketing dept is full of social warriors and probably all under the age of 30. Plus it shows they secretly harbor disdain for Red-State football fans that want to enjoy a game and the fun of friends... no, no... we must message to the yokels... for their own good.

From the comments here:
• TheLincolnianThis could get to be fun...This article suggests that Plato and Aristotle were Italian.
As a Greek-American, I am deeply offended. Italian imperialists conquered and colonized my ancestral homeland for centuries. I was so triggered I found it difficult to focus on the rest of the article.
— The class read "Plato and Aristotle, … Hobbes, Locke, Hegel, Marx, Weber and Foucault," i.e., "economically privileged white males from five imperial countries (England, France, Germany, Italy and the United States)." (Not sure who the American is …)
• ASCB...Excellent post! I'm Italian and on behalf of the Roman Empire I apologize. But I, too, am offended: Greece colonized Sicily at some point. I don't recall when or for how long but I do know that I'm terribly outraged.
Another good point you made: who's the American? I guess they're confusing the Englishman Locke with an American Founding Father. I guess Google isn't available in California.
Finally, they don't like Foucault? Really? His whole argument was that logic and reason were fantasies made up by rich white men to keep them rich. You'd think they'd recognize their ideas' progenitor. Also, I think Foucault may have been gay; if so, this editorial clearly is homophobic.
• AlastorIn that Foucault is arguably best-known as a swinger, I'm astonished that he is not on the Approved List!
• ReynardineFoucault's works are at least a half century old by this time, making them sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic, and speciest.
We're post-post-modern now.
• AlexaThis is awesome, the only thing I'd like to say is, why stop at social sciences and humanities? White cis men shouldn't have control over other curricula either! I'm an engineering student, and too many engineers pretend that structures of oppression have nothing to do with the "hard sciences." This is bullshit. We have to push instructors in all disciplines to open their curricula.......
• mark abramsBesides cis-gender what about cis-species and trans-species? Why aren't there courses on designing for trans reptiles? Surely climbing stairs can't be pleasant for those who have snakes' brains in human bodies.
• Self-Abusin' Pete"Sometimes, we were so uncomfortable that we had to leave the classroom in the middle of lecture."
It was horrible. We were subjected to the presentation of ideas that made us uncomfortable. At a university!
• Caucasoid88...Berkeley, no less. Where mental clout is supposedly recruited.
• Big BirdThe world and academia does not revolve around Gender and white male guilt.
• Gunnar ThalwegEasy for you to say. You're yellow and eight feet tall.
• Big BirdI'm white and 6'6 which I guess makes me guilty of something?
• Gunnar ThalwegYes, it does. Stop oppressing others, immediately.
(Via Insty, where the consensus is that, while the original could be a troll, it's probably not!)

Podcast (reality-cast-podcast): Download | Embed
I interview Feminste blogger Jill Filipovic about the increasing hostilities over abortion in New Mexico. Plus, I have two segments on conservative efforts to keep people from getting health care as the dawn of the Affordable Care Act fast approaches.
The Albuquerque City Council has scheduled a vote on a petitioned 20-week abortion ban in the city for November 19, after councilors questioned the constitutionality of the ordinance and "struggled with whether they were required to schedule a vote on the measure."

On this episode of Reality Cast, Dr. Tracy Weitz talks about a new bill designed to expand access to safe abortion services in California. In another segment, I discuss how anti-choicers are upsetting people in New Mexico, and I have some good news about teen pregnancy.
The New Mexico Supreme Court ordered a hearing to resolve whether or not county clerks can move forward with issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples.
A move to ban abortion after 20 weeks in Albuquerque, New Mexico, has overcome its first hurdle to becoming municipal law.
A vote to ban abortion after 20 weeks in Albuquerque, New Mexico, won't be taken in a high-turnout mayoral election this October, as anti-choice activists in the city had originally hoped.
This week, Mark Gietzen, chairman of the Kansas Coalition for Life, told the Huffington Post that he thinks South Wind Director Julie Burkhart is "trying to provoke an incident so she can say, 'Look, these pro-lifers did something.'"
Anti-abortion rights activists have presented a petition to the Albuquerque City Council asking it to put a 20-week abortion ban to a citywide vote this fall.
As a young person from the same Native American communities as my students, I find it more and more culturally relevant that our younger generation educate each other.
Whether it's the trial of Dr. Kermit Gosnell or the birth control benefit, the radical right wing has shown it has no problems manipulating the law to push its agenda.
