2 Candidate Interview Reviews Back to all InterviewsSort: Popular Date Difficulty
Research Technician II Interview
The process took 4+ weeks – interviewed at Northwestern University in December 2011.
The interview consisted of 2 Skype interviews within the period of a week. I interview with my direct supervisors and had no contact with HR during the interview phase. As such the questions were based on my experience in the field and my skillet. There were none of the typical HR styled hypothetical questions. It was a very straightforward interview process. It was about 2 weeks from the last interview to me receiving the offer. Work atmosphere is a good blend of private and public sector attitudes making it work with a good pace but with out the feeling of needless paper-pushing.

Roman Lattice-work panties and Coa Vestis in progress
Submitted by Audrey Lucero on Wed, 2006-01-18 01:48
This thread explores the creation and wearing of the filmy Coa Vestis, and Roman Lattice-work panties.
Hopefully, this helps to prove that Roman garb wasn't meant to be made from old bedsheets or broadcloth; the site attempts to bring awareness to the fact that Roman garb can be quite sensual and interesting, when done right, researched properly, and worn with dignity.
Just because Roman garb is generally easy to make does not mean it's easy to wear! (The Greeks, after all, had slaves that attended to the sole function of properly draping the master's clothing.)

text: Bad Day is in many ways a revolutionary film and yet it is also one which stands the test of time. This 20 minute short, directed by Modi Frank, photographed by Exene Cervenka and written by these same two punk legends, crystallizes a point in American music history when roots rock and folk were emerging out of punk and combining with poetry. A silent film starring musicians and poets including John Doe, Dave Alvin, Julie Christensen, and Doug Knott, Bad Day features Kevin Costner as the town drunk and Dances With Wolves author/screenwriter Michael Blake, who dedicated the novel to Exene.

Dr. Pronovost began using a checklist at Johns Hopkins that led to a 90-percent drop in bloodstream infections in the hospital's intensive-care units.
Pronovost's checklist has five items: wash hands; clean the patient's skin with antiseptic; put a sterile draping over the patient; wear a mask, hat, sterile gown, and gloves; and put a sterile dressing over the insertion site once the tube is in.
Gawande's The Checklist Manifesto details how Pronovost worked with hospitals in Michigan in a study published in 2006 on using a checklist in ICUs. The hospitals reported a 66-percent drop in infections, and many got their infection rates to zero.
Joanne Ondrush, a critical-care physician at Inova Fairfax Hospital, was inspired by Gawande's book and talked her colleagues into reading it. She then worked with doctors and nurses in the intensive-care unit to create a checklist in 2010 for Inova Fairfax's ICUs that's used when doctors and nurses talk about patients on rounds.
"The biggest resistance to this was that it's more work for someone who is already stressed and busy," Dr. Ondrush says. "But when people saw that it could be implemented with minimal change in the workflow, it was adopted in a relatively short period of time."
Inova's Medical Surgical ICU--one of nine full-time ICUs at the hospital--keeps track of its infections on a whiteboard in the staff lounge. The board is next to the refrigerator so that everyone tracks their progress. Each time a patient gets an infection, the doctors and nurses hold a "huddle" in which they discuss the cause. Then someone posts a brief explanation on the wall about how the infection occurred so everyone can learn from what happened.
In September, the Medical Surgical ICU showed that there had been six infections since the start of the year.
"Zero is always our goal," Ondrush says. "But zero isn't sustainable [forever] because we are dealing with sick people and there are going to be variables that are out of control. You can do every checklist and everything right and the patient is still going to develop an infection."
On an early August morning, 200 Georgetown Medical School students gather for coffee, bagels, and a talk on patient safety. Doctors haven't traditionally been trained to see patient safety as one of their priorities. That's changing.
Dr. Stephen Evans, chairman of surgery and the leader of patient safety at Georgetown University Hospital, moves to the lectern and begins with a question.
"When patients get admitted to the hospital, what is it that a patient wants?" He calls on a student at the table in front him, who answers: "To get cured?"
"No," Evans says.
The student tries again. "To feel safe?"
Evans nods. "They want to feel safe first," he says. "After they feel safe, they want to be cured of what ails them."
Evans stresses that every medical student and soon-to-be doctor plays a key role in keeping a patient safe.
"So what does that mean? If you are in a room and the attending physician walks in and doesn't wash his hands, you--not anyone else, you--can flatten the hierarchy. You say, 'Excuse me, Dr. Evans. You forgot to wash your hands going into the room. Would you mind? I think it's important for patient safety.' "
The room erupts in nervous laughter, as it does every time Evans gives this lecture. The reason, he says, is that he's telling students to question their superior--something that hasn't historically been part of med-school curriculums.
"I'm not laughing," Evans tells the students. "You have to be in a position where you can tap someone on the shoulder regardless of their level, age, or hierarchy so the best care is delivered to the patient."
The Association of American Medical Colleges, the group that speaks for the nation's medical schools, is encouraging schools to emphasize patient safety and to push new physicians to think in teams. Doctors are also being trained in the importance of washing their hands, something that seems obvious but wasn't part of med-school discussions in the past.
"Previously it was just how to treat a patient and how to take out a gallbladder," Evans says. "Now we have tons of data showing how many near misses and mistakes and errors occur, and so we try to make that painfully transparent to everyone."
Next: Hospitals continue to struggle to get their staff to wash their hands as often as they're supposed to.
Examining the underlying factors in "near misses" and errors--known in engineering as a "root cause" analysis--is also a big change in health care. Terry Fairbanks, associate professor of emergency medicine at Georgetown and a patient-safety expert, says that among the reasons airlines are safe is that they track near misses and errors and conduct root-cause analyses.
"In the history of health care, what do we do if anyone makes a mistake?" says Dr. Fairbanks, also director of the MedStar National Center for Human Factors Engineering in Healthcare, a unit within MedStar's hospital system that focuses on patient safety. (MedStar owns Georgetown Hospital and eight others.) "We'd retrain them. We'd focus on the individual instead of recognizing that there are certain things that people will make errors with" and redesign the system accordingly.
Georgetown encourages staff to report instances in which actions nearly caused harm or caused only minor harm. These reports give an indication of where the hospital needs to bolster its processes to prevent a serious injury.
"In engineering, there are 600 misses for every adverse event," says Fairbanks. "You can build a system to prevent those near misses from turning into an adverse event, but you have to know what those near misses are."
Sometimes what's found in analyzing an injury is that hospital staff aren't following even the most basic safety precautions. Infections are known to spread through poor hand washing, for example, but hospitals continue to struggle to get their staff to wash their hands as often as they're supposed to. An estimated 1.7 million patients a year get infections in hospitals and 99,000 die from them, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
At Shady Grove Adventist Hospital, the staff was 80 percent compliant with hand-washing rules and couldn't get that number higher until the hospital required employees to sign a letter committing to washing their hands, says Skip Margot, Shady Grove's vice president of patient-care services. The letter was then put into staff job-performance files. Compliance rose to almost 100 percent, Margot says. (Shady Grove knows its compliance rate because it periodically secretly observes staff on hand washing.)
At Shady Grove and at Georgetown, sinks and hand sanitizers have been positioned to take into account doctors' and nurses' workflows. Hand sanitizers are installed on walls near the entrance of rooms, for example. "When [doctors and nurses] don't wash their hands, it isn't a conscious decision," Fairbanks says. "You get interrupted by a nurse with a question just as you were about to wash your hands."
Georgetown says its hand-washing rate is 90 percent. Evans, the Georgetown patient-safety leader, says that as of mid-2011, there was a big decrease in the hospital's infection rate and other complications, but he declines to give specific numbers.
Another way hospitals are improving safety is by digitizing patient records. In September, the Joint Commission listed Silver Spring's Holy Cross as a top-performing hospital, one of only 405 in the country to receive that ranking. No other hospital in the region made the list. Holy Cross was judged on how well it followed recommended protocols for treating children's asthma, heart attack, heart failure, pneumonia, and surgical infection.
Dr. Yancy Phillips, Holy Cross's head of quality and care management, credits the hospital's investment in electronic records. Every patient admitted now has a digital record, and seven full-time employees comb through those records to determine if doctors and nurses are following safety protocols.

Recommendations for cork flooring

I'm considering cork floors for the second floor of my house (bedrooms, playroom, hall, stairs). Can you all weigh in with recommendations for brands? I'm interested in the floating floor variety and want decent quality but don't necessarily want to break the bank.
We have had good experience with Ipocork produced by Amorim who owns Wicander. But has a quite much more affordable. The most impressive part is its 6 coats of Wear Resistance Technology varnish.

Payne Heater Problems
Have a 15 year old Payne forced air heater, model 373 LAU 048115. So far, to keep it running two years ago I replaced the circuit board and last year the inducer motor. Turned the unit off for summer and restarted yesterday. Fan comes on, then inducer motor, but igniter will not glow. Receive error code 31. Tried the test mode and everything works fine including the igniter.
Have inspected the exhaust vent and there are no obstructions. Bypassed the pressure valve below the inducer and still the igniter will not glow.
All I did was connect the two wires going to the switch together to complete the circuit. Thought the switch was bad. Then I removed the switch with the vacuum tube connected and sucked on the tube. Heard a clicking sound indicating the switch was working. Reinstalled and heater igniter glowed and burners lit. Great to have heat again.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Sexy dance shows all the rage even as Indonesia sends Lady Gaga packing
JAKARTA, Indonesia -- Titin Karisma parades onto the stage wearing a rhinestone bustier and matching bottoms, with sequin fringe that jiggles wildly to the rhythm of the beating drums.
Pre-teen boys watch the singer wide-eyed as she straddles a speaker, whipping her long hair wildly. She licks the microphone and drops to the ground, repeatedly thrusting her pelvis toward a camera.
Lady Gaga's onstage antics are almost tame compared to this act, known as dangdut, the most popular genre of music in this predominantly Muslim nation of 240 million.
But while the pop star's show was effectively banned from Indonesia, tens of thousands of young women here put on performances like Karisma's every night. They shake and grind in smoky bars, ritzy nightclubs, at weddings, even circumcisions. In most cases the hosts say the sexier the better.
The apparent double standard highlights divisions between Indonesia's largely tolerant majority and a vocal minority of Islamic hard-liners. The conservatives hold outsized influence in government, and have successfully picked high-profile battles like the Lady Gaga show, but they haven't been able to stop dangdut, which has a long tradition here.
Karisma's stage shows have gotten nearly a million hits on YouTube. Julia Perez, an actress and wannabe politician, is dubbed the "sex bomb" for her racy act. Another performer, Dewi Persik, is known for her powerful back-and-forth hip thrusting "saw move" and public acknowledgments that she had surgery to become "a born-again virgin" to please her future husband.
The up-and-coming Trio Macan, made of three Gaga look-alikes, with dyed hair and catlike poses, often simulate sex with male customers on stage.
Members of the Anti Apostasy Movement, Indonesian Mujaheeds Council and the notoriously thuggish Islamic Defender's Front, better known as FPI, are quick to say they go after provocative dangdut performances. From time to time their followers jump in vans and ransack dangdut bars and nightclubs in the capital, Jakarta, and its outskirts.
But they know this won't get them the kind of attention they crave, said Andrew Weintraub, a professor of music at the University of Pittsburgh and author of the book Dangdut Stories.
"Lady Gaga is a big name," he said. "It's a big stage for conservative Muslim organizations to promote their own agenda. They'll get a lot of attention internationally -- which is also what makes the state nervous."
All 52,000 tickets for the concert Lady Gaga planned to give June 3 sold out within days, but members of the FPI had vowed to meet her at the airport if she dared step off the plane. Others bought tickets to her show saying, if it went ahead, they'd wreak havoc from inside the packed stadium.
As the weeks-long controversy raged, conservative politicians and members of more mainstream Muslim organizations piled onto the anti-Gaga wagon. And police -- for the first time ever -- denied a permit to one of the many Western stars passing through, citing security. Lady Gaga eventually pulled the plug.
"We hold huge concerts here all the time," said Desi Anwar, a local television anchor, noting that crowd control is nothing new. "This is what happens when the government is perceived as weak and not consistent."
Indonesia is often held up by U.S and others as a beacon of how Islam and democracy can coexist, and in many ways they are right. Most of the secular nation's 210 million Muslims practise a moderate form of the faith and accept differences in others, with schoolgirls in headscarves regularly seen in shopping malls walking arm-in-arm with friends wearing tiny short shorts and T-shirts.
Sweeping reforms that followed the ouster of Gen. Suharto's 32-year dictatorship in 1998 have allowed citizens to directly pick their own leaders, while vastly improving human rights, opening up the media and allowing artists freely express themselves for the first time in decades.
But a small extremist fringe has become more vocal in recent years, using its influence to push through controversial laws banning everything from kissing in public to showing too much skin. They've also become more violent, going after Christians and members of other religious minorities with batons and machetes, usually without paying any price.
More recently, mobs attacked Alex Aan, an atheist, now in jail for his beliefs, and rampaged a book discussion by visiting Canadian liberal Muslim activist, Irshad Manji.
Conservative opponents of dangdut don't worry fans like Imam Siswanto, who says the genre is powerful because it often touches on issues that resonate with the masses: heartache, social inequality and, sometimes, faith.
He said that although critics sent Gaga packing, "I can firmly and confidently say that dangdut will never die."

Since the time of ancient Mesopotamia, mosaics have been used to add color, texture, and pattern to homes. The historic art form, first used in the fourth millennium B.C., utilizes small pieces (called tesserae) of stone, glass, fired clay, or other hard materials to cover a surface, often to create a pattern or depict an image. Because the process was so labor-intensive, tile work was once found in only the most aristocratic houses. But now it is a versatile, hard-wearing, and practical option—ideal for kitchens and baths, of course, but also for walls and floors in other rooms as well as swimming pools. Check out our photo gallery for ideas on how mosaics can make any surface sensational.

Pathfinder International Selected For The Girl Effect Global Giving Challenge
Pathfinder International is pleased to join The Girl Effect Global Giving Challenge this month. Pathfinder was selected as one of 70 organizations to compete to win the opportunity to be featured on the Girl Effect fundraising page on Global Giving for one year.
The Girl Effect Global Giving Challenge is a one-month competition featuring innovative projects that address the needs of adolescent girls around the world. The challenge, hosted by Global Giving, in partnership with Nike Foundation, will select 12 organizations to be featured, and receive donations through the Girl Effect Fund over the course of 2013.
From November 1-November 30, each organization will be able to raise funds for its project. The top six organizations with the most unique donors will automatically be selected. Six additional organizations will be selected by a Girl Effect expert panel.
Pathfinder has a goal of reaching 200 unique donors for our pioneering project to empower girls in Ethiopia. We know that the full power of the girl effect is not realized until girls are educated, have access to sexual and reproductive health information and services, and are supported by the larger community. With donors' help, Pathfinder will support 1,000 girls from urban and rural areas through an exciting leadership program. We will fund scholarships to keep girls in school, will provide sexual and reproductive health education and referrals for services, and will support girls' clubs that provide social support and mentoring by successful women in their communities. Pathfinder's comprehensive model integrates health and life skills to help adolescent girls realize their full potential.
Support Pathfinder's "Educating and Empowering 1,000 Girls in Ethiopia" project and help reach our goal of 200 unique donors today!
Country: Ethiopia
Focus Area: Adolescent and Youth Sexual and Reproductive Health

6th Sense Analytics Raises $5 Million in Series A Venture Funding.
MORRISVILLE, N.C. -- 6th Sense Analytics, a pioneer in improving software development metrics, today announced it has raised (U.S.) $5 million in Series A funding to accelerate research and development and expand sales and marketing efforts. The latest round brings the total private equity raised to $6.7 million. Founded in 2004, 6th Sense Analytics offers a hosted software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution for automating the collection of metrics to gain visibility and control over software development projects that span multiple geographic locations. 6th Sense unveiled the latest version of its groundbreaking analytic solution today at the Launchpad for Emerging Technology, DEMO 07, in Palm Springs, California (6th Sense Analytics Launches New Solution at DEMO 07).
The financing was led by Core Capital, a Washington, D.C.-based private equity firm that provides capital to both early-stage technology ventures and small to mid-sized growth companies. Core Capital Managing Director, William Dunbar, will join the 6th Sense Analytics Board of Directors.
Intersouth Partners of Durham, NC also participated in the round. Intersouth, an early-stage venture capital firm, led the company's seed financing of $1.7 million in 2004.
"Core Capital has completed a number of deals in the analytics space and will bring deep domain expertise to the Board," said 6th Sense CEO, Greg Burnell. "We're also thankful to have the continued support of Intersouth Partners, our initial investor and a continued asset to our organization. Our first year of operation has validated our vision and direction as an organization. As a business process, software development has often been left to chance, and we're arming organizations with the insight they require to bring business discipline to software development."
According to a recent Duke University/Booz Allen Hamilton study, managerial control is one of the key challenges for organizations sending software development and other high-end processes offshore. 6th Sense helps organizations reclaim this managerial control by delivering factual data and providing full transparency into the execution of the software development process.
"6th Sense Analytics provides a simple and novel solution to the longstanding challenge of gaining visibility into software development processes," said William Dunbar, managing director for Core Capital. "Based on our experience in the market, we believe the opportunities for growth are significant, especially as more companies initiate complex software development projects."
The 6(th) Sense Solution
6th Sense Analytics is a powerful and unique SaaS solution for achieving accurate and consistent visibility across distributed software development projects. 6th Sense automatically and unobtrusively collects activity-based data from developer tools and delivers on-demand analytics to individuals and teams. This delivers insight into the time spent on specific activities, and provides a basis for understanding team effort, productivity and overall project velocity -- ensuring software development projects are on time, on budget and on target with business goals. All of this allows software development teams to improve their ability to deliver successful project outcomes, critical to the overall success of a globally distributed software development effort.
About 6(th) Sense Analytics
6th Sense Analytics, a pioneer in improving software development metrics, gives developers and managers deep insight into their software development process by delivering accurate metrics without interrupting the software development lifecycle or changing the tools used. The company uses an open and independent architecture that provides visibility into the status of distributed software projects. Founded in 2004 by a team of experienced executives in the software development market, representing companies including Rational (now IBM), TogetherSoft and Borland, 6th Sense Analytics is a privately held company based near Research Triangle Park, North Carolina.
About Core Capital
In business since 1999, Core Capital (www.core-capital.com) is a Washington, DC-based venture fund with over $350 million under management. The firm invests in a wide range of disruptive technologies, with a particular focus on telecommunications hardware and software, wireless applications, enterprise software, network security, e-commerce, logistics and tracking, energy and power management in addition to web and communications services. Core invests in both early-stage and later-stage companies.

Christmas sales may match last year's as retailers withstand "uneven" growth in the U.S. and Europe, said billionaire Victor Fung, chairman of the world's biggest supplier of consumer goods.
The U.S. Treasury Department said it will delay a report on international currencies, including China's, citing progress in the acceleration of the yuan's rise .
The following companies may have significant price changes in Hong Kong trading. Stock symbols are in parentheses. Share prices are as of the last close.
Asian stocks climbed, with the regional benchmark index set for its longest streak of gains since January, after manufacturing in China and the U.S. expanded, boosting the outlook for exporters and machinery makers.
Li & Fung Ltd. , the biggest supplier to retailers including Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and Esprit Holdings Ltd. , named President Bruce Rockowitz as chief executive officer, driving up the company's stock.
Global bank regulators risk choking commerce through new rules that treat trade finance as being as risky as derivatives, said Victor Fung , chairman of Li & Fung Ltd. , the Hong Kong-based supplier of Wal-Mart Stores Inc.
The following companies may have unusual price changes in Asian trading tomorrow. Stock symbols are in parentheses and share prices are as of the latest close. The information in each item was released after markets shut unless stated otherwise.
Billionaire brothers Victor Fung and William Fung , the owners of Li & Fung Ltd., acquired 1.03 percent of Japan's Sanrio Co. , owner of the Hello Kitty brand.
Russia and the U.S. have the most protectionist trade measures among the Group of 20 leading industrialized countries, according annual rankings released today in Hong Kong by the International Chamber of Commerce .
"The conclusions of this report should serve as stark reminders of the dangers of protectionism."

President Barack Obama says the U.S. can take steps to ensure more people can join and stay in the middle class.
President Barack Obama says the U.S. can take steps to ensure more people can join and stay in the middle class.
In his weekly radio and Internet address, Obama is echoing themes from his State of the Union address. He says some of his ideas require Congress, but he'll take steps on his own where he can.
Obama says his economic priorities include creating new jobs and improving job training. Expanding access to kindergarten and college is another priority, along with ensuring workers have good wages, health care and retirement options.
In the Republican address, four members of Congress are urging Obama to support bills on jobs, medical research, compensation and energy. Rep. Fred Upton of Michigan says the Senate is standing in the way.

Fidelity® Growth Company Fund
- Symbol: FDGRX
- No Transaction Fee 1
- Closed to new investors
Investment Approach
- Fidelity® Growth Company Fund invests across a spectrum of companies, from blue chip to aggressive growth.
- Our investment approach is anchored by the philosophy that the market often underestimates the duration of a company's growth, particularly in cases where the resiliency and extensibility of the business model are underappreciated.
- We focus on firms operating in well-positioned industries and niches that we find capable of delivering persistent sales and earnings growth.
- This approach typically leads us to companies that we think have the potential to unlock shareholder value through either a growth-enhancing product cycle or an internal catalyst such as a turnaround or acquisition.
- We believe it critical that companies fund their own growth - through the cash they generate - and benefit from management teams focused on creating long-term shareholder value.
Performance Review
For the three months ending December 31, 2014, Fidelity® Growth Company Fund outpaced its benchmark, the Russell 3000® Growth Index. Successful stock selection in pharmaceuticals, biotechnology & life sciences industry - an area where the fund was concentrated and where we have found many of our best ideas - was the biggest source of strength this past quarter.
Several biotech and specialty pharma names landed among the fund's top performers, including Isis Pharmaceuticals, the biggest relative contributor, as well as Alkermes and Regeneron Pharmaceuticals. Shares of out-of-index Isis flourished in the fourth quarter as it continued to advance more of its pipeline drugs to late-stage development. Alkermes saw an uptrend in its share price after the firm announced in October that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) had accepted the company's New Drug Application - first step in the FDA approval process - for its treatment for schizophrenia. Regeneron, one of the fund's largest holdings, benefited from strong demand for Eylea®, the company's treatment for macular degeneration, an increasingly common eye disease. Also, in October, the firm reported positive results from a head-to-head comparison trial between Eylea® and its major competitor.
The industrials sector was another strong-performing area of the fund this quarter, especially stock picks in the transportation industry. Airlines in particular benefited from a steep decline in the price of jet fuel and an increase in U.S. travel. Here, the fund's stakes United Continental Holdings and JetBlue Airways, an out-of-benchmark name, were winners.
Stock picking in the information technology sector, especially among semiconductor & semiconductor equipment stocks, dragged on the fund's relative results. For example, photovoltaic-panel maker First Solar was our biggest detractor during the quarter. The stock slumped along with the solar industry generally as the price of oil declined. While solar fundamentals are largely unrelated to oil prices, the drop in oil prices weighed on investors' sentiment toward energy sources in general, including alternatives such as electricity-generating solar operators and their suppliers. We're still positive on the potential for solar as a secular theme, and the fund remained invested in First Solar at quarter-end.
An overweighting in Google was another technology detractor. Google shares returned -10% for the quarter, as the Internet search provider reported disappointing third-quarter revenue and earnings, attributed to fewer-than-expected clicks on the company's paid online advertisements. A 46% increase in research-and-development spending pressured profits, as did higher taxes and the company's largest hiring effort in three years. Despite the stock's performance this period, we remained bullish on Google's long-term potential and held onto the stock.
Heavier-than-index exposure to Cree also hampered results. The stock was hurt when the firm announced weaker-than-expected first-quarter financial results in October. We're still positive on Cree because we like its competitive, forward-looking management team and its industry-leading LED (light-emitting diode) bulbs and fixtures, which are still in the early stages of global adoption.

Outlook and Positioning
The U.S. continued to see healthy signs of economic recovery, with housing and non-residential construction moving in the right direction. We expect to see slow-and-steady growth here. We're optimistic that the eurozone may be through the worst of its own economic challenges, given the potential for the European Central Bank to adopt a more aggressive monetary policy. In our view, China is taking the right steps to try to rebalance its economy, but it may not be a smooth process. Overall, global growth was relatively subpar. Consistent with our investment strategy, our focus remains out a few years, and we're confident about the fund's positioning for the longer-term.
At quarter-end, the fund's largest overweighting was in health care, mostly due to our positions in biotechnology, where we seek to diversify holdings across an array of treatments and times-to-maturity. Our second-largest relative overweighting was in information technology, where we favored tech companies with what we consider high growth potential versus what we see available in capital goods and machinery stocks, which have similar economic sensitivity as many of the fund's tech holdings. Conversely, the fund's largest sector underweighting at period-end was consumer discretionary, partly due to our preference for companies that specialize in newer forms of media - which are often categorized under information technology - versus older, more-traditional media companies such as newspapers or publishers, which fall under consumer discretionary.
Looking at current investment themes, alternative energy - including solar, wind and geothermal technologies - continues to look promising. Many of these technologies, especially solar power, have become cheaper. The U.S. tends to have attractive energy rates compared with the rest of the world, and thus international markets may be even faster adopters of alternative energy. We've identified firms here with defensible positions and business advantages. This industry can be volatile, but we think it could stabilize somewhat as consumers become more aware of solar's advantages versus traditional energy sources.
We've also been looking at the emergence of immuno-oncology in the biotech industry. Immuno-oncology uses the body's own immune system to target cancer cells, typically by either lowering the resistance of cancer cells to attack or by signaling more clearly where cancer cells are located. Promising signs showed up in areas like metastatic melanoma, a disease where immuno-oncology seems to be driving long-term cures in some patients. This technology, while still nascent, could transform the treatment options for a number of cancers.

Happy Halloween
This halloween was the first time we'd opened our doors for Trick or Treaters and we have to say what lovely, well mannered children we had visit us. Well done to the youth of Beith! Very impressed. :-)…
Hardy diggers turned out at the Garnock Valley Allotment site to brave the weather on Easter Monday morning to help plant trees and shrubs awarded to the project by the Woodland Trust as part of the national programme of tree planting to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee. This planting will help to establish barrier hedging of dog rose and blackthorn interspaced with crab apple, hazel and elder trees.
Well done. Good to see other folk planting trees for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee

Could Jakub Pinkas have anticipated, in 1843 that he was going to establish the most famous old Czech "pub" with the most renowned beer - a place where the history of the Czech nation will be formed?
As the River Vltava and Prague Castle are inherent parts of Prague, the genuine czech love for good beer and cozy pubs can be considered the cyech national heritage. Just a few steps from Wenceslas Square, you can find a typical Czech restaurant called U Pinkasu, where Pilsner Urquell was the first beer being drawn in Praguee as early as in 1843. First class and traditionally draft beer is drawn on three storeys and each of these premises will captivate its guests with traditional czech cuisine as well as cosy atmosphere.
And this is the reason why people like coming here – excellent Pilsen beer drawn in a traditional manner, genuine Czech cuisine, home and unique atmosphere.

- 4 cups cubed whole-wheat bread, (6 slices)
- 4 cups cubed white sandwich bread, (6 slices)
- Giblets from 1 turkey, (see Tip), liver discarded
- 1 cup water
- 1 1/2 teaspoons canola oil
- 2 stalks celery, chopped
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 4 apples, peeled, cored and chopped
- 4 teaspoons chopped fresh sage, or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried, rubbed
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme, or 1 teaspoon dried
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh or frozen cranberries, (see Tip)
- 1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground pepper, to taste
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread whole-wheat and white bread on a baking sheet and bake until lightly toasted, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place giblets and water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes. Drain, reserving the cooking liquid. Finely chop the giblets and set aside.
- Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add celery and onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add apples, cook for 3 minutes longer. Add the giblet-cooking liquid, sage and thyme. Reduce heat to low and simmer until the apples are tender and most of the liquid has evaporated, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and add the toasted bread, giblets and cranberries. Drizzle broth over the bread mixture and toss until evenly moistened. Season with salt and pepper.
- Reduce oven temperature to 325°. Transfer stuffing to a lightly oiled casserole dish and cover with foil. Bake until heated through, 35 to 45 minutes. If you would like a crisp top, uncover for the last 15 minutes of baking.
Tips & Notes
- Tips: If you don't have turkey giblets, omit Step 2 and substitute 3/4 cup chicken broth for the giblet-cooking liquid in Step 3; omit adding chopped giblets.
- To make quick work of chopping cranberries, place whole berries in a food processor and pulse a few times until the berries are coarsely chopped.

Review written by
James Wynne
August 19th, 2014
Scram Kitty and His Buddy on Rails is a platforming rail-shooter by Dakko Dakko, a small developer based in South Wales, UK.
It brings an approach to platforming that I can only compare to Super Mario Galaxy if it were 2D, as it uses a lot of circular platforms and gravity effects. Early on you may become disoriented, but after a little play time you develop an eye for the jumps, becoming much more capable. Which is good because the difficulty will ramp up fast and stages will require great precision to advance, let alone collect every kitty on a given level.
The shooter aspect is there, and while it takes a back seat to platforming, it can be very intense at times as enemies flood the screen. Fortunately, your character is well equipped for all manner of combat, with a powered up bounce jump to plow through enemies that get too close and several different weapon upgrades spread throughout the stages. You cannot manually aim and must find the proper positioning and weapon type for the situation, while dodging enemy attacks, making for hectic arcade-like action.
Graphically, the game is somewhat stock. However, Dakko Dakko has made the bland, but colorful, environments really stick out by going the extra mile with good use of parallax scrolling. Instead of throwing up a black background and calling it a day, the parallax layers create a nice 3D effect that is far more pleasing to the eyes.
The only complaints I can make about the game involve controls and sound. The controls are almost rock solid, but they're somewhat unintuitive at first. Instead of using all directions, the game could have gone the route of clockwise and counterclockwise rotation being assigned to right and left respectively, and would have been better for it. As for the sound, the music fits but it's not memorable at all. After hours of playing I couldn't even hum a little bit of the music if asked. It leaves the mind as soon as the power is off.
Overall, Scram Kitty and His Buddy on Rails is a great game that's different from anything else the Wii U has to offer, and well worth the purchase. It may have some areas that come across as bland, but the gameplay is intense and satisfying with tons of replay value for the completionists out there.
