Polycom CEO: Company Is Not for Sale
Polycom CEO: Company Is Not for Sale
Jeffrey Burt
Posted 2010-06-23
Two weeks into his term as CEO of video conferencing technology vendor Polycom, Andrew Miller told Reuters that despite rumors to the contrary, Polycom is not for sale. In fact, the company, which is competing against the likes of Cisco in the video collaboration space, is looking for companies to buy that could complement its product portfolio.
Polycom, a top rival to Cisco Systems in the increasingly competitive video collaboration space, is not only not for sale, but it's actively looking for other companies to buy, according to its new president and CEO. Andrew Miller, who was
appointed the company's top executive
earlier this month,
told Reuters
in a June 22 report that Polycom officials are looking for companies whose products would complement Polycom's video conferencing portfolio, such as in the areas of niche, cloud computing or mobile.
"We're going to become more active in M&A," he told Reuters.
Rumors about Polycom being sold began to circulate last year, after Cisco made public its bid for Norwegian video conferencing equipment vendor Tandberg. Cisco closed the deal for Tandberg earlier this year for about $3.4 billion. In November,
Logitech made its move
in the space with the $405 million acquisition of LifeSize Communications. Businesses are showing a growing interest in video conferencing, including immersive telepresence technology, as a way of increasing productivity while shaving expensive travel costs.
Cisco bought Tandberg as a way of broadening its TelePresence portfolio and expanding its reach into the midrange business sector. Polycom has been aggressive in partnering with
such companies as Hewlett-Packard
, which has its own Halo telepresence portfolio. Polycom's Miller, a former Cisco executive, touted his company's financial strength to Reuters. Polycom ended the last quarter debt-free, and with $470 million in cash and investments on hand. Polycom also has gotten good vibes from the analyst community. In a research note June 21, Piper Jaffrey analysts said that demand for video conferencing technology was strong, particularly in the United States, and that Polycom should benefit. "The overall feedback in the U.S. market has been exceptionally strong and is likely at all-time record sales levels this quarter," the analyst report said. "We have received mixed feedback from our European contacts, but the strength in the U.S. market should more than offset European weakness. In addition to video strength, we believe Polycom's voice business is also growing nicely this quarter with strong demand for IP phones and wireless products." According to Piper Jaffrey, while Polycom's revenue market share dropped slightly in the first quarter, to 31 percent, it grew its market share of unit shipments to 40 percent.

It's my first experiment in drillium, and it's still harder than a brand new Unicanitor. My next step is to get a larger drill bit in the chuck and make those holes bigger. I'm saving it for the drop bar conversion I'm building on the $100 clunker contest thread.

ABSTRACT: Severe acute radiation dermatitis is observed in approximately 5% to 10% of patients who receive whole-breast radiotherapy. Several factors, including treatment-related and patient-oriented factors, are involved in susceptibility to severe dermatitis. Genetic factors are also thought to be related to a patient's susceptibility to severe dermatitis. To elucidate genetic polymorphisms associated with a susceptibility to radiation-induced dermatitis, a large-scale single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis using DNA samples from 156 patients with breast cancer was conducted. Patients were selected from more than 3,000 female patients with early breast cancer who received radiotherapy after undergoing breast-conserving surgery. The dermatitis group was defined as patients who developed dermatitis at a National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria grade of > or =2. For the SNP analysis, DNA samples from each patient were subjected to the genotyping of 3,144 SNPs covering 494 genes. SNPs that mapped to two genes, ABCA1 and IL12RB2, were associated with radiation-induced dermatitis. In the ABCA1 gene, one of these SNPs was a nonsynonymous coding SNP causing R219K (P = 0.0065). As for the IL12RB2 gene, the strongest association was observed at SNP-K (rs3790568; P = 0.0013). Using polymorphisms of both genes, the probability of severe dermatitis was estimated for each combination of genotypes. These analyses showed that individuals carrying a combination of genotypes accounting for 14.7% of the Japanese population have the highest probability of developing radiation-induced dermatitis. Our results shed light on the mechanisms responsible for radiation-induced dermatitis. These results may also contribute to the individualization of radiotherapy.Clinical Cancer Research 10/2008; 14(20):6683-9. · 8.19 Impact Factor - International Journal of Radiation OncologyBiologyPhysics 11/2007; 69(3). · 4.18 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: This study evaluated patients for the influence of the dose rate and lung dose of fractionated total body irradiation (TBI) in preparation for allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) on the subsequent development of interstitial pneumonitis (IP). Sixty-six patients at our institute were treated with TBI followed by BMT. All of the patients received a total TBI dose of 12 Gy given in 6 fractions over 3 days and were divided into 3 groups according to the radiation dose rate and lung dose: group A, lung dose of 8 Gy (n = 18); group B, lung dose of 12 Gy at 8 cGy/min (n = 25); and group C, lung dose of 12 Gy at 19 cGy/min (n = 23). The overall survival rate, the cumulative incidence of relapse, and the cumulative incidence of IP were evaluated in relation to various potential indicators of future IP. There were no significant differences in survival and relapse rates between patient group A and combined groups B and C. Clinically significant IP occurred in 13 patients. The cumulative incidence of IP was significantly higher in patients who developed acute parotitis as indicated by either an elevation in the serum amylase level or parotid pain of grade 1 to 2. There was no difference in IP incidence among groups A, B, and C. There was no significant difference in IP incidence between lung dose values of 8 Gy (with lung shielding) and 12 Gy (without lung shielding) and between dose rate values of 8 cGy/min and 19 cGy/ min, at least when TBI was given in 6 fractions. The presence of acute parotitis during or just after TBI may be a predictor of IP.International Journal of Hematology 02/2006; 83(1):86-91. · 1.68 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We report a patient with metachronous bilateral breast cancer who has twice developed radiation pneumonitis after breast-conserving therapy for each breast. The patient was a 48-year-old woman, who presented with Stage I right breast cancer. After wide excision of the right breast tumor and dissection of level I axillary lymph nodes, systemic therapy with oral 5-FU and tamoxifen was started. Subsequently, tangential irradiation with a total dose of 50 Gy in 25 fractions was given. Seven months after irradiation, she developed respiratory symptoms and radiation pneumonitis was diagnosed. The symptoms resolved with oral prednisolone. Thirty months after the right breast cancer treatment, Stage I left breast cancer was diagnosed. After wide excision of the left breast tumor and partial removal of the level I axillary lymph nodes, the same oral systemic chemo-hormonal therapy was initiated. Thereafter, tangential irradiation with a total dose of 50 Gy in 25 fractions was given. Four months after irradiation, she developed respiratory symptoms. A chest X-ray showed an area of increased density in the left lung consistent with radiation pneumonitis. The symptoms were mild and they improved spontaneously without medication. Although there is insufficient evidence to justify or withhold whole breast radiation therapy from patients with a history of contralateral breast cancer and radiation pneumonitis, it is essential to discuss the adequacy of whole breast irradiation and the possibility of alternative approaches, such as breast-conserving surgery without irradiation or partial breast irradiation for this rare condition.Breast Cancer 02/2006; 13(3):313-6. · 1.51 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To understand comprehensive transcriptional profile of normal human fibroblast in response to irradiation. To identify genes whose expression is influenced by gamma radiation, we used a cDNA microarray to analyze expression of 23,000 genes in normal human fibroblasts at 7 timepoints (1, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours) after 5 different doses (0.5, 2, 5, 15, and 50 Gy) of exposure. Among the genes that showed altered expression patterns, some were already known to be regulated by irradiation, for instance ODC, EGR1, FGF2, PCNA, PKC, and several p53-target genes, including p53DINP1, BTG2, GADD45, and MDM2. The time course of each dose showed that from 350 to 600 genes were affected as to their expression; induction profiles characteristic to each dose were demonstrated. Of the total identified, only 89 genes were up-regulated; the vast majority was down-regulated over the 72-hour time course. We identified 21 genes that were distinctly induced by irradiation; 11 of them were functionally known, and 6 of those were p53-target genes. The results underscored the complexity of the transcriptional responses to irradiation, and the data should serve as a basis for global characterization of radiation-regulated genes and pathways.International Journal of Radiation OncologyBiologyPhysics 02/2006; 64(1):272-9. · 4.18 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Yeast Sir2 is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent histone deacetylase that plays a central role in transcriptional silencing, chromosomal stability, DNA damage response and aging. In mammals, Sir2-like genes constitute a seven-member family whose function is largely unknown. To investigate the role of the Sir2 family in vertebrates, we have disrupted Sir2 homologues SIRT1 and SIRT2 in the p53-deficient chicken cell line DT40. Both SIRT1-/- and SIRT2-/- cells had mild growth defects. Colony survival assays showed moderate and mild sensitivity to cisplatin in SIRT1-/- and SIRT2-/- cells, respectively, while SIRT1-/-, but not SIRT2-/- cells, were sensitive to ionizing radiation (IR). Cells rendered doubly deficient in SIRT1 and SIRT2 exhibited the same levels of IR and cisplatin sensitivity as SIRT1-/- cells. SIRT1-/- cells appeared to be defective neither in DNA double strand break repair nor in G2/M checkpoints, but were more susceptible to cell death induction following IR than wild-type cells. Furthermore, both SIRT1- and SIRT2-deficient cells were more sensitive to pro-apoptotic stimuli including cisplatin and staurosporine. Our results indicate that SIRT1 and SIRT2 regulate stress-induced cell death pathways in a p53-independent manner.Genes to Cells 05/2005; 10(4):321-32. · 2.86 Impact Factor - International Journal of Radiation OncologyBiologyPhysics 09/2004; 60(1). · 4.18 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: Germline mutation of the BRCA2 gene causes a high risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer. Although the BRCA2 protein has been implicated in homologous recombination (HR) of DNA and in transcription, it is still unclear how mutation leads to tumorigenesis. We have identified a non-mammalian homologue of BRCA2 from chicken, which encodes a protein with 3397 amino acids (aa) and shows only 40% identity to human BRCA2. However, comparison of the mammalian and chicken sequences revealed remarkably high homology in several segments. These include a N-terminal region (approximately 100 aa), which was previously shown to possess intrinsic transcriptional activity, and a C-terminal region (aa residue approximately 2480-approximately 3180 in human BRCA2), which has not been clearly assigned any function. In contrast, although the eight BRC repeats of mammalian BRCA2 are believed to play an important role in HR by interacting with Rad51, the BRC3, BRC5, and BRC6 repeats exhibit virtually no similarity to their mammalian counterparts. Among 311 missense mutations listed as unclassified variants in the NIH Breast Cancer Information Core database, only 83 of these sites are identical in chicken BRCA2. Thus, chicken BRCA2 may provide a means to identify domains and residues associated with cancer predisposition.Oncogene 03/2002; 21(7):1130-4. · 8.56 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Yeast Rad52 DNA-repair mutants exhibit pronounced radiation sensitivity and a defect in homologous re combination (HR), whereas vertebrate cells lacking Rad52 exhibit a nearly normal phenotype. Bio chemical studies show that both yeast Rad52 and Rad55-57 (Rad51 paralogs) stimulate DNA-strand exchange mediated by Rad51. These findings raise the possibility that Rad51 paralogs may compensate for lack of Rad52 in vertebrate cells, explaining the absence of prominent phenotypes for Rad52-deficient cells. To test this hypothesis, using chicken DT40 cells, we generated conditional mutants deficient in both RAD52 and XRCC3, which is one of the five vertebrate RAD51 paralogs. Surprisingly, the rad52 xrcc3 double-mutant cells were non-viable and exhibited extensive chromosomal breaks, whereas rad52 and xrcc3 single mutants grew well. Our data reveal an overlapping (but non-reciprocal) role for Rad52 and XRCC3 in repairing DNA double-strand breaks. The present study shows that Rad52 can play an important role in HR repair by partially substituting for a Rad51 paralog.The EMBO Journal 11/2001; 20(19):5513-20. · 10.75 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The Rad51 protein, a eukaryotic homologue of Escherichia coli RecA, plays a central role in both mitotic and meiotic homologous DNA recombination (HR) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and is essential for the proliferation of vertebrate cells. Five vertebrate genes, RAD51B, -C, and -D and XRCC2 and -3, are implicated in HR on the basis of their sequence similarity to Rad51 (Rad51 paralogs). We generated mutants deficient in each of these proteins in the chicken B-lymphocyte DT40 cell line and report here the comparison of four new mutants and their complemented derivatives with our previously reported rad51b mutant. The Rad51 paralog mutations all impair HR, as measured by targeted integration and sister chromatid exchange. Remarkably, the mutant cell lines all exhibit very similar phenotypes: spontaneous chromosomal aberrations, high sensitivity to killing by cross-linking agents (mitomycin C and cisplatin), mild sensitivity to gamma rays, and significantly attenuated Rad51 focus formation during recombinational repair after exposure to gamma rays. Moreover, all mutants show partial correction of resistance to DNA damage by overexpression of human Rad51. We conclude that the Rad51 paralogs participate in repair as a functional unit that facilitates the action of Rad51 in HR.Molecular and Cellular Biology 05/2001; 21(8):2858-66. · 5.04 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K) is a heterodimer of a regulatory subunit, p85, and a catalytic subunit, p110. A number of previous reports showed that PI3-K functions in diverse cellular phenomena such as cell proliferation, glucose catabolism, cell adhesion, and vesicle transport. It is also well known that a survival signal from the receptor tyrosine kinases utilizes Akt via PI3-K to protect cells from apoptosis. To examine the role of PI3-K in cellular sensitivity to genotoxic stresses such as cisplatin and ultraviolet (UV), we introduced deletion type p85 (Δp85) into two human glioblastoma cell lines (T98G and A172) and one melanoma cell line (G361). The Δp85 works in a dominant-negative fashion on PI3-K activity by disrupting its p85/p110 interaction. In all three transfected cell lines, the overexpression of Δp85 rendered the cells markedly more sensitive to these DNA-damaging stresses than the cells transfected with the vector alone. Apoptosis was vigorously induced in cells overexpressing Δp85 following the treatment. The present results imply that PI3-K plays a critical role in determining cellular sensitivity to genotoxic stresses in human cancer cells, and that disruption of the p85/p110 interaction of PI3-K may be a potential molecular target for developing a novel strategy for cancer treatment.Cancer Science 11/2000; 91(12):1314 - 1318. · 3.53 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Purpose: Topoisomerase inhibitors including camptothecin are being studied as potential radiosensitizers. CPT-11 is a derivative of camptothecin and is clinically available. In this study, we investigated the effects of SN-38 (an active metabolite of CPT-11) on four nonirradiated and irradiated murine fibroblast cell lines with different p53 statuses to clarify the role of p53 in the radiosensitizing activity of SN-38. Materials and methods: Four fibroblast cell lines, MT158, MT158/neo, MT158/wtp53 and MT158/mp53 with the same genetic background but with different p53 statuses, were used. Exponentially growing cells were treated with SN-38 (200 nM) and incubated with the drug for 30 min. Cells were then irradiated (0 to 12 Gy) and further incubated with the drug for 2 h. The cell survival rate was determined using a conventional clonogenic assay. The effects of the treatments on the cell cycle were analyzed with a flow cytometric assay. Apoptosis after these treatments was also detected by an annexin V assay. Results: There were no significant differences in sensitivity to radiation or SN-38 treatment among these cell lines. The combined treatment of irradiation and SN-38 showed supraadditive effects in all four cell lines independent of their p53 status. Transient arrest in G2 with a decreased percentage of cells in both the S and G1 phases was observed 8 h after treatment with either SN-38 alone, radiation or their combination, regardless of the p53 status. No significant differences in frequency of apoptosis were observed between treatment and control groups in two cell lines with or without wild-type p53. Conclusion: The combination of irradiation and SN-38 treatment showed supraadditive effects in all four cell lines tested, and the p53 status did not play a role in the combination effect.Cancer Chemotherapy and Pharmacology 03/2000; 45(5):362-368. · 2.57 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Enhanced expression of neuron derived orphan receptor (NOR-1) gene was observed by exposure of Chinese hamster ovary K1 (CHO-K1) cells to an extremely low frequency magnetic field (ELFMF) of 50 Hz at 400 mT, but not at 5 mT. The enhanced expression, reaching the maximum at 6 h, was transient and reduced to the control level after exposure to 400 mT ELFMF for 24 h. The NOR-1 expression induced by treatment with forskolin and TPA was further enhanced by the simultaneous treatment with 400 mT ELFMF, in which the maximum response was at 3 h. The NOR-1 expression by these treatments was induced more earlier than that by 400 mT ELFMF alone. When cells were treated with an inhibitor of the protein kinase C (calphostin C or crocetin) and Ca2+ entry blockers (nifedipin and dantrolen) during the 400 mT ELFMF exposure, the enhanced NOR-1 expression was not observed. Exposure of CHO-K1 cells to the high-density 400 mT ELFMF may affect the signal transduction in the cells, resulting in the enhanced NOR-1 gene expression.Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry 05/1998; 181(1-2):191-5. · 2.39 Impact Factor - Mutation Research/Fundamental and Molecular Mechanisms of Mutagenesis 09/1997; 379(1). · 4.44 Impact Factor

The board game Stratego is a more elaborate version of Capture the Flag. Each player starts with 40 pieces; made up by the flag, 5 bombs, and an assortment of 9 types of military units.After these have been placed, each player takes it in turn to move their pieces. Other than scouts (which are the least powerful) the units can only move one space at a time.The flag and bombs can't be moved during the game, so watch out for any squares the computer does not move when it otherwise logically should, and these could be your goal.
When you choose a square occupied by an opposition piece, combat arises, and the higher-numbered piece is lost from the game. You have no way of knowing what strength the opposition pieces are until you have hit them.
This computerized interpretation has 3 different board layouts, a selection of automatic setups with different strategic benefits, and a demo mode.

Thanks for checking my profile out. I JUST...
Thanks for checking my profile out. I JUST moved to Fort Lauderdale. Happy to be here near my best friends and hopefully i'll meet that "special" someone soon! I am seeking someone who is LTR oriented but am happy to date and see who I meet along the way... I enjoy spending time with family and friends, LOVE to travel, but also love spending time at home with my dog and of course, a loved one. I should expand upon my love of travel. I am very LUCKY to have a relaxed schedule and am able to travel to local and exotic places with not much advance notice. It would be nice to have a partner who also loves to travel and would be able to travel with me. I am up for going anywhere at any time! :-) Some might consider me to be handsome, youthful, fun, masculine, healthy (HIV Negative), intelligent, mature and stable. I exercise at least 5 days a week, including: swimming, biking, roller blading, yoga, Pilates, weight training and LOVE "spinning". I keep physically fit because it makes me feel healthy, positive and good about myself. I'm grounded, level-headed and have a strong sense of self-awareness. I love to laugh and keep things light but also know when to tone it down. I will be forever young at heart. I have a tremendous amount of pride in who I am, the relationships I've cultivated, and in my personal and professional successes. I think the Universe has a lot to offer and more than ever I am open to its bounty. I am looking for a man who is passionate, confident, funny, intelligent, handsome and down-to-earth. More than anything else, I'm looking for a spark - a little magic. So take a chance and say hello. Who knows... Maybe we will have that chemistry that is so important. Or maybe we'll just laugh over a few drinks or a nice dinner. Both are totally okay in my book. I am very lucky to have a home in New York City. I do go back often during the Summer and would love to have the right man to share it with. If you like what you read and see, please send a note. Peace :-) ***All of my Pictures are Recent, The profile pic was taken in Novemberr 2014, the others within the last few months and year (except the one in the white tank which is about 10 years old). I sometimes have a little facial hair, scruffy is the right term or I may be perfectly clean shaven. I like to change my look around.*** **If you take the time to send me an e-mail and you have a picture, please know that I am a gentleman and will respond even if I do not think we are a match. *** *****PLEASE do NOT contact me if you have not posted a picture of yourself here on Match! ******

Mostly magazines and newspapers...NYtimes, Wall Street journal, Vanity Fair, Time, New York Magazine, etc. I love biographies and mostly non-fiction. I am re-reading , for the 100th time, "the Power of now" by Eckhart Tolle.

Sugar Mamas were originally produced by the James O. Welch Company in 1965, as a companion candy to the already produced Sugar Baby and Sugar Daddy. They had a distinctive red and yellow wrapper, the opposite of the Sugar Daddy's yellow and red wrapper. They have not been produced since the 1980s. Sugar Mamas are chocolate-covered caramel suckers, essentially Sugar Daddy covered in chocolate. [ - ]

Introduction to Programming
Development on the computer of programming skills, problem-solving methods, and selected applications.
Programming and Entrepreneurship
Continuation of CPSC 112. Emphasis on advanced computer programming concepts and modern entrepreneurship techniques used to bring a technical application to market for real-world adoption. Intended to be taken with CPSC 112 as part of a yearlong sequence.
Global Social Entrepreneurship: India
Launched in 2008 at the Yale School of Management, the Global Social Entrepreneurship (GSE) course links teams of Yale students with social enterprises based in India. GSE is committed to channeling the skills of Yale students to assist Indian organizations to expand their reach and impact on "bottom of the pyramid" communities. Yale students partner with mission-driven social entrepreneurs (SEs) to focus on a specific management challenge that the student/SE teams work together to address during the semester. In five years, GSE has worked with 30 leading and emerging Indian social enterprises engaged in economic development, sustainable energy, women's empowerment, education, environmental conservation, and affordable housing.
The course covers both theoretical and practical issues, including case studies and discussions on social enterprise, developing a theory of change and related social metrics, financing social businesses, the role of civil society in India, framing a consulting engagement, managing team dynamics, etc. The course is taught by Tony Sheldon, Lecturer in Economic Development and Executive Director of SOM's Program on Social Enterprise.
All students will travel to India to work on-site with their partner SEs and for a convening of all the student/SE project teams.
Strategic Communication
The focus of this course is to increase one's competencies in oral communication and presentation. Developing and executing effective communication strategies is essential in a variety of business settings. Business leaders are often expected to present their message with confidence and clarity to employees, clients, partners, investors and the public. This highly interactive, practical course will help students develop confidence in public speaking through weekly presentations and assignments, lectures and discussions, guest speakers, simulated activities, and filmed feedback. Students will be given the opportunity to present both individually and as part of a team. We will explore the essentials of communication strategy and persuasion: audience analysis, message construction, communicator credibility, and delivery. Students at all levels of mastery of public speaking will benefit from this course.
Entrepreneurial Business Planning
Entrepreneurship is all about starting and running one's own business. In order to focus thinking and to help assemble the needed people and financial resources, many entrepreneurs write a business plan for their new venture. One of the best ways to learn how to write a business plan is to learn by doing -- a real plan for a real new venture. The work will be "hands-on," "learn by doing" in nature. Entrepreneurs should be flexible thinkers and highly motivated, with a large capacity for work. They must be persistent and able to thrive in an unstructured environment. Entrepreneurs should be confident self-starters with the ability to take the initiative, overcome obstacles, make things happen and get things done. This course is for six teams of five students each, who want to write a business plan for their own real new startup company. Students will enter their plans in the Y50K Business Plan Contest sponsored by the Yale Entrepreneurial Society. The scope of the work will include: doing in-depth market, product and competitor research; creating a strategy for a sustainable business; and writing and presenting a professional quality plan (including a financial model and deal structure).
Venture Capital & Private Equity Investments
Investing in venture capital and in the equity of private companies is an apprenticeship business. Venture investors need analytic and quantitative skills, as well as broad knowledge of a range of business and financial disciplines. Successful investors need practice and a variety of experience, as well as good judgment and people skills. Course topics include start-ups and expansion stage venture capital, leveraged buyouts, and turnaround situations. Disciplines include business research (library skills), business and financial analysis, financial projections and equity valuation, verbal and written presentations, teamwork, and negotiating techniques. The course includes both lectures and in-depth case studies, with a strong emphasis on "learning by doing." Teamwork is actively encouraged to frame and solve problems, and to handle heavy workloads. Execution of case studies requires teams of students to do research on industries, segments and niches, to evaluate business plans, and to make financial projections and value equity instruments. Teams will make written and verbal presentations. Entrepreneur and investor teams negotiate and structure "deals" in a role-playing mode. Five students will be selected from this class to represent Yale SOM as a team in the National Venture Capital Investment Competition (against 35 other MBA schools).
Start-up Founder Studies
This is a seminar course for the advanced study of start-up founders' experiences. Each class is devoted to a single topic related to the experience of start-up founders that is not covered in other entrepreneurship electives. The classes consist of readings, case studies, activities and lectures led by experienced founders. These are followed by student-led interviews of the entrepreneurs. Topics change yearly and may include building company culture, sales techniques, board management, founder disputes, start-up acquisitions, going public and others.
Start-up Founder Practicum
The purpose of this course is to provide full-time SOM students with a mechanism to work on their start-up ventures for credit, applying principles derived from their other coursework, particularly the integrated core curriculum. Students in this course articulate milestones for their ventures and work with faculty, staff, and mentors to meet those milestones. Generally, the course employs "lean" methodology. Admitted students are given working space in the Entrepreneurial Studies Suite of Yale's Evans Hall.
Entrepreneurship & New Ventures
Students learn to create and manage new ventures across the public, private, and nonprofit sectors in this foundational elective. Through this course, students are introduced to emerging frameworks in entrepreneurship including "lean start-up," "customer discovery," and "design thinking". These frameworks are used to identify and evaluate market opportunities for new products and services based on customer needs. The course also includes various practical aspects of new venture creation including legalities, financing, team building, and management.
Management of Software Development
New Ventures in Healthcare and the Life Sciences
This course will give students a broad understanding of the major "new venture" opportunities in healthcare & medicine---healthcare delivery, healthcare IT, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, medical devices, and surgical techniques. In each of these areas, they will understand the canonical path to commercialization including how to identify opportunities; who the customers is; how to build interdisciplinary teams; and regulatory hurdles to commercialization. The course is designed for a diverse student body including students from management, natural sciences, and medicine. The course comprises lectures, raw cases, guest speakers, and in-class projects.
Impact Investing
This course will explore the current role of impact investing in developed economies, with particular focus on the United States. We will review the history and continuum of impact versus risk in impact investing. The course will broadly cover impact investing across multiple asset classes with a focus on venture capital impact investing. The creation and measurement of social impact, as well as the limited partner perspective will also be explored. Selected practitioners from leading firms and organizations will join for a portion of a number of classes to provide first-hand insight from a variety of perspectives. Assignments are created to mimic the real-world tasks and challenges in impact investing across multiple roles, debate the issues those in the field grapple with today and encourage students to explore how the industry can be expanded.
Managing in Times of Rapid Change
Top management today, and for the foreseeable future is living in an era of Creative Destruction, Joseph Schumpeter's prescient phrase describing the essential dynamics of modern economies. While the job for top management fifty years ago was to look after and control their operations, today's task is not only to efficiently operate and control their existing businesses, but also to change the composition of their portfolio of businesses ant the pace and scale of the market—which itself is changing five times faster than fifty years ago—without losing control of the enterprise. The new challenges causes top management to rethink the role of the CEO, the Executive Committee, and the Board of Directors. To explore these important changes, the class will discuss the record of change in American industry both at the industry and company levels. Specific case histories in media, health care, professional services and other industries will be discussed. The impact of the changing capital markets will be described. For satisfactory completion of the course, students will be expected to complete a short class project describing the challenges coming in an area of interest to them. In addition extensive class discussion is expected of everyone.
Global Social Enterprise
The spring Global Social Enterprise (GSE) course grows out of the GSE Student Club, which is the only student-run organization at SOM that brings together students interested in social enterprise with opportunities to provide pro bono consulting services to organizations in developing countries. Founded in 2004, the GSE club allows students to put their classroom knowledge to practical use and gain hands-on experience in the areas of international development and social enterprise.
The course is centered around a spring break trip, during which GSE participants work in groups of 4-5 to provide pro bono consulting services to private and nonprofit social enterprises in the selected country. During Spring-1, the course aims to foster a deeper understanding of the political, economic, and social climate in which the students will be working, as well as provide students with a tool set (e.g., business planning, financial statement analysis, competitive strategy, etc.) to better serve their clients. Upon returning to SOM after spring break, students will continue work on their projects during Spring-2 term. Students will present their findings and final deliverables to their clients and to the SOM community at the end of the semester.
Legal Aspects of Entrepreneurship
This course will examine a variety of legal and strategic issues likely to arise in the course of forming an entrepreneurial venture and managing a growing firm. Students will learn how to use the law and legal tools to create value, marshal resources (human and financial), and manage risk and how to integrate legal and regulatory considerations into a firm's overall strategy. Issues addressed include arrangements among the founders, intellectual property protection, venture capital financing, executive compensation (including tax considerations), securities regulation, and mergers and acquisitions. LAE will be of particular interest to students planning to become entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, investment bankers, chief financial officers, or directors of business development in large firms.
Entrepreneurial Finance
The course covers entrepreneurial finance from the perspective of the entrepreneur, including estimating capital needs, raising initial financing from angels, accelerators, venture capitalists or through crowd funding, negotiating terms, raising follow-on financing through debt or equity, and eventually managing an acquisition or public offering. The primary audience for this course is anyone who wants to understand better the financing of entrepreneurial ventures.
Real Estate Finance for Institutional Investors
This course concentrates on the five major types of institutional property investment: Office, Industrial, Retail, Hotel and Multifamily- and large-sized properties (>$50M). Each session will deal with the unique financial characteristics of a particular property type, via case study, modeling of cash flows, and income and expense analysis. The special market characteristics of each property type, buying, selling and current market conditions, will also be discussed. Because real estate can also be analyzed from the viewpoint of public and private markets and debt and equity markets, each session will also include a discussion of a financing or equity vehicle and its relevance to a particular property type. In addition to case studies which will require problem solving, students will be expected to be able to: a) model and value different property types, b) read and abstract leases and partnership agreements and c) understand, quantify and articulate the differing perspectives of investor/buyer, developer/seller and lender/syndicator. As appropriate, guest speakers will be introduced for the final 45 minutes of at least half the sessions. A final team project will require working in groups of 3-5 students on the same portfolio of diverse real estate assets, with recommendations to be made to an investor group at the final class.
GNAM Course: New Product Development
The percentage of sales of successful business organization tied to the successful introduction of new products and services is high. Given the fact that the failure rate of these introductions is also high there is a need for tools and techniques to manage the NPD process. This course will focus on the tools, techniques and best practices developed to support the development and marketing of new products.

#1 Bubble Pizza06-02-2009, 11:43 PM
My wife belongs to a pregnancy forum, and the ladies of that forum decided to put together a cook book of all their favorite family recipies and print it for a nominal cost to exchange.
We just made Bubble Pizza, and it was good! Just like normal pizza, except you use biscuits for the crust. I love the brown part of the crust that is in contact with the baking dish!
Of course, if it were for just myself and the kiddos, I would have made it much more exciting, but my wife is a vegetarian, so we had to keep it simple-half with meat, half without.

(21) Connecticut 79
(23-9, 9-9 Big East)
(22) Georgetown 62
(21-10, 10-8 Big East)
Coverage: ESPN/WatchESPN
12:00 PM ET, March 9, 2011
Madison Square Garden, New York, New York
No schools have won more Big East tournament titles than Georgetown and Connecticut. If either is to add another championship this year, both must play better than they have of late.
One of these perennial powers will move closer to another title Wednesday afternoon when the No. 21 Huskies face the 22nd-ranked Hoyas in the second round at Madison Square Garden.Connecticut (22-9) has won six Big East tournament championships, but it snapped a six-game losing streak in the event with Tuesday's 97-71 rout of DePaul."We're happy to get a win. It's been a while," said coach Jim Calhoun, who guided the Huskies to their last Big East tournament title in 2004.The ninth-seeded Huskies had not won a tournament game since beating Georgetown 66-62 in the 2005 quarterfinals.Seeded eighth and the owner of seven league tournament titles, Georgetown (21-9) hopes to get back to the championship game for the second straight season after losing to West Virginia. The Hoyas last won the event in 2007.However, like UConn, the Hoyas struggled down the stretch by losing their final three games.Georgetown, which has been without second-leading scorer Chris Wright the last two games due a broken left hand, averaged 48.0 points on 31.1 percent shooting during that skid. Wright is scoring 13.1 points per game."Is it hard to deal with?" coach John Thompson III said of losing Wright, who could return for the NCAA tournament. "I can't sit here and say everything is peachy. But that's what athletics are about. There are injuries. You have to play the hand you're dealt."That could be difficult for the Hoyas, who lost 78-70 at full strength at UConn on Feb. 16. The Huskies then went on to lose four of five to close the regular season.Calhoun hopes Tuesday's victory against overmatched DePaul will help his team regain some confidence for the rest of this tournament and beyond."We had a nice bounce-back game," Calhoun said.First-team all-Big East guard Kemba Walker scored 26 points, while Alex Oriakhi added 13 and tied a school tournament record with 19 rebounds.The 6-foot-9 Oriakhi was out of the starting lineup for the second straight game after totaling seven points over his previous two contests, and the Huskies know they need him to be productive in the paint if they are to make a run this month."I just think we look different when he's rebounding, blocking shots and playing defense like that," Calhoun said. "He's been struggling and I keep telling him, 'It's simple, go get the basketball.' It's never that simple, but it gets in your head."The sophomore had 10 points with eight rebounds versus Georgetown last month, and Walker finished with 31 points and 10 assists as the Huskies shot 54.2 percent for their best mark in conference play.Georgetown's first-team all-league pick Austin Freeman, who averages 17.8 points, was held to 12 on 4-of-13 shooting in that contest. The senior guard scored 21 in a 69-47 loss at Cincinnati on Sunday."Knowing that Chris is out of the lineup, I have to be aggressive on both ends of the floor," Freeman said.The winner faces third-ranked and No. 1 seed Pittsburgh in the quarterfinals Thursday.SPONSORED HEADLINES

Merit Medical Reports Record Sales, Up 9%, For The Quarter Ended March 31, 2013
SOUTH JORDAN, Utah, April 25, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Merit Medical Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq:MMSI), a leading manufacturer and marketer of proprietary disposable devices used primarily in cardiology, radiology and endoscopy, today announced record sales of $103.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, an increase of 9% over sales of $95.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012.
Merit's non-GAAP net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, was $4.3 million, or $0.10 per share, compared to $7.2 million, or $0.17 per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2012.
GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2013 was $671,000, or $0.02 per share, compared to net income of $5.7 million, or $0.14 per share, for the first quarter of 2012. The decrease in GAAP net income was attributable primarily to lower gross margins, higher investments in research and development, and increased interest expense.
For the first quarter of 2013, compared to the first quarter of 2012, catheter sales grew 10%; custom kit and tray sales were up 7%; Endotek sales increased 6%; stand-alone device sales rose 2%; BioSphere sales decreased 5%; and inflation device sales decreased 5%. Excluding lower sales to an OEM customer, inflation device sales rose 1%. Gross margins for the first quarter of 2013 were 41.4% of sales, compared to 46.2% of sales for the first quarter of 2012. The reduction in gross margins was due to higher standard costs of 1.9% of sales resulting from lower production volumes for the first quarter of 2013, amortization of developed technology costs of 1.3% of sales associated with the integration of the operations of Thomas Medical Products, Inc. ("Thomas Medical"), implementation of the Medical Device Excise Tax of 1.0% of sales which was part of the Affordable Care Act, and one-time finished goods inventory mark-up costs of 0.6% of sales related to the Thomas Medical acquisition. Excluding the non-recurring Thomas Medical finished goods inventory mark-up costs, gross margins would have been 42.0% of sales for the first quarter of 2013. The non-GAAP gross margin was 44.4% of sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, compared to 47.2% of sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2012.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

New Monsters, Inc. Coaster Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios?

New Monsters, Inc. Coaster Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios?Published: July 25, 2008 at 8:55 AM According to this Jim Hill Media article, a new suspended coaster will be coming to Pixar Place in Disney's Hollywood Studios. It will be themed to the hanging door scenes from the Monsters Inc and will be coming in Fall 2011.
Replies (5)Published: July 25, 2008 at 9:45 AM If only everything Jim Hill wrote about was true. We will have to wait.Published: July 25, 2008 at 12:19 PM I have no doubt that people at WDI and WDW are talking about such an attraction. Heck, I've heard of such talk myself. But theme park companies talk about a great many concepts. The trick is to be able to separate the talk that's not going to lead to a completed attraction from the talk that is leading toward a ride being built.All talk starts with the intention of that attraction being built. But, obviously, not everything gets there. Published: July 25, 2008 at 3:18 PM When I first saw the movie, I thought what a great coaster the door scene would be. There have been many scenes in recent movies that could be created into awesome rides that would boggle the senses. But as everyone has pointed out, it is sadly just talk with no signs of action behind it. How I would love to sit in on those meetings!Published: July 26, 2008 at 6:31 AM So is it going to be a suspended or inverted coaster? The article mentions inverted, but here you say suspended. I find it hard to believe Disney would put in an inverted, as the height restriction would be too high for their liking.This article has been archived and is no longer accepting comments.

Penny Hardaway's Nike Signature + PE Collection by John Kim 10 Comments
August 10, 2012 BY John Kim / 5
Penny Hardaway once got on the 'Memphis Express' – that is, he wore this PE colorway of his Zoom Rookie back in 2011 for a celebrity All-Star game. Much like the 'Memphis Blues' aka the 'Game Royal', it appears that this once made-for-Penny will be flipped to a made-for-all, as the tonal 'Varsity Red' colorway will in fact hit retail sometime later this year. The Zoom Rookie buzz has slowed down a bit until Gentry confirmed a September release of the Galaxy version, but on top of the Galaxy and this Varsity Red release, there is in fact another 'Premium' Zoom Rookie build (priced at $215) awaiting us this September. What could it be? We'll keep you in the know, so in the meantime, browse through this gallery of detailed images of the Varsity Red and let us know what you think. Photos: sole-awesome

As anyone who plays the guitar, or even plays Guitar Hero, already knows, Lynard Skynard's Simple Man is simply one of the better rock songs ever written. While the original's roots lay in Southern rock, its spirit is universal – even New England rappers like J The S were obviously inspired by the track's timeless message. Producer Franco Anthony does the heavy lifting in transforming Simple Man from rock to rock-rap, playing drums and bringing in Alex Bodnar to play the track's scorching bass and guitar sections. It's the perfect setting for J The S to bring in yet more of his realer than real raps, vowing to set aside life's endless distractions to simply concentrate on what truly matters. While Pill's tastes are more hedonistic, his hedonism is also of the simple kind: all he's asking for are some "cash to clutch and a bad b**tch to back it up." Keeping in the spirit of the track, I'll close by making things as simple as possible. J The S' upcoming album, Last Days, drops via The DJBooth next Wednesday, January 18. You should download it. It doesn't get any more simple than that.

Just wondering if most people stay full day to closing (around 5 pm'sh I think) or a half day (ie leave after lunch sometime) Has anyone ever tried arriving later around 10am'sh? FYI...We would be going in late April Thx for any info/advice
IMHO, Discovery Cove is an all day park. You can easily fill the time from open to close with all the things they have to do. We have been twice....once on January 1st, 2012 with the dolphin swim and once on August 29th, 2012 without the dolphin swim (but with a cabana). Both visits, we arrived just shortly after 8 and stayed until between 4:30 and 5 pm. And in both instances, time passed way too quickly.....you will be amazed at how fast a "relaxing" day goes by. You can check out my two trip reports (see links in my signature below) for lots of info and photos on the different attractions at the park. Also, you don't say if you plan on doing the dolphin swim or not. If you are, be aware that a late arrival will put your swim very late in the afternoon. Swim times are assigned as you arrive, so the earlier you get there the earlier your swim will be.
Agree all day .... And it goes fast and you will want more! It's by far the best $$ we have spent! Even if you bypass the dolphin swim, you can see those that are doing it. It's an amazing thing to see even from the sidelines!!
We stayed the entire day (and beyond)!!! The posted closing time is basically the time that the attractions close. Guests may stay in the water until that time, then you may gather your things, shower, etc. This is what we did and we were never rushed out of the park by any employee. We swam until closing, showered, then purchased pictures. We did not take the time during the day to view, select and purchase pictures because we wanted to make the most of the attractions that we paid so much money for. I would recommend staying the whole day as many people do choose to leave early and the end of the day was less crowded.
For the amount of money I would never, ever leave before it closes if I could help it. We get there at 8am where even though it isn't officially open, you can go in, eat breakfast and find the best base for your family. Any later than 10 I would say the available seats left aren't the best. Then of course we stay till 5- there is plenty to do at DC and I just wouldnt spend all that money if you weren't getting the most value out of it
Thanks, good to know. So you can go in have breakfast, get beach location etc. before the official opening time - is this correct? Thx
Yup- pretty sure- this is what myself and many others do. It's best to get the most time in this amazing place and means you can spend more time in the water
'Til we were kicked out. We had a cabana right on the Grand Reef and DD was one of about 5 people still swimming around when the lifeguards blew the whistle and said "time to go"

Anyone who has used any transdermal????
Anyone who has used any transdermal????
Just mixed up my fina with my transdermal carrier, it is in a liquid spray bottle. My question is do I just spray it on and rub it in with my hands, or do I spray it and leave it (this seems like it would be a huge pain in the a$s). I don't want to waste any gear, so anyone who has used a transdermal please let me know how you applied it????
Thank you - 08-15-2006, 12:54 AM
I'm not sure if anyone here has ever even heard of transdermal carriers. I'm guessing that you may need to run a search.
