Customers Less Tolerant Of Employee Rudeness Than Incompetence
Study shows that incivility isn't tolerated — even when the employee is being reprimanded for poor customer service
Rude behavior among employees can negatively affect consumer perceptions — even when the incivility isn't directed at the customer, reveals new research from the University of Southern California Marshall School of Business.
Across a range of industries, including restaurants, banks, government offices, retail stores and universities, consumers frequently report seeing employees behaving badly toward other employees, including derogatory comments or inappropriate gestures.
"These findings underscore the need for organizations to promote employee civility," said Deborah MacInnis, Professor of Business Administration at the USC Marshall School of Business and Vice Dean for Research and Strategy. "Training employees to treat one another well enhances the bottom line because of its impact on customer behavior."
Across four studies appearing the August 2010 issue of the Journal of Consumer Research, MacInnis and co-authors Christine Porath, former Assistant Professor of Management and Organization at USC Marshall and Assistant Professor of Management at Georgetown University, and Valerie Folkes, USC Associates Chair in Business Administration and Professor of Marketing at USC Marshall, examined how consumers witnessing acts of employee incivility may extend their experiences to more general feelings about the company.
They found that people witnessing employee incivility — in this case, a store manager calling an employee an "idiot" — were faster to jump to negative conclusions about the company than those who witnessed employee incompetence.
Surprisingly, the researchers found that customers turned against the company even in instances when the rude employee was trying to help the customer. In one of the studies, people who had to wait several minutes as an employee gossiped on the phone still formed negative impressions of the company when the employee was reprimanded rudely by another employee in front of them.
"Whereas one might anticipate that incivility directed at consumers has extremely negative effect, we show that consumers are also negatively affected when they are mere observers of incivility between employees," the authors write.
The authors suggest ways for corporations to promote employee civility: "Several methods include selecting for and training in civility, setting zero-tolerance expectations and reprimanding incivility before it festers."

Yukon and Beyond
I think my attraction to the Far North started one hot, Texas summer day more than three decades ago. The memory is pretty faint, but it was a television movie I happened across, a documentary about a handful of guys hiking around in some far, northern location – maybe the Arctic. It seemed dated even at the time, but I was captivated by these guys moving through a wide, open wilderness. And I retain this clear image of the hikers looking down a slope toward a vivid rainbow touching the treeless valley floor. Then the frame cuts to those hikers standing in a circle around the base of the rainbow, seen from the camera filming above. The narrator intones something about how they didn't find any pot of gold.
Maybe they didn't, but that image created something just as appealing in my mind. A vision of open spaces, big skies, and awesome landscapes filled with mountains, rivers, wildlife and adventure. Places people can go to. Maybe even some kid from Dallas.
So, I decided to go to the Yukon.
EDIT: Happy to say I stumbled on the documentary! It's "Challenging the Northwest Territory," by a famous hunter and nature documentary maker, George Eastman. It's a bit dated, but there is some special magic in it for nature lovers.

Our Vision:
Tracy Interfaith Ministries (T.I.M.) is an interactive group of participating church bodies whose ministry is to the community in need. We have been called forth to give temporary and emergency service to all those who knock on our door in that we may glorify God through this ministry.
Tracy Interfaith Ministries Services
Who are the needy??
A single Mom, of two school age children, who has recently had her work hours cut-back. Groceries twice a month will help her provide meals for her children until she finds more work.
A Grandmother, retired and on a fixed income, who has taken in four toddler grandchildren – their parents have left town to find work; they have been gone for two months. She finds the help with groceries and clothes essential in making a secure home for the children.
A veteran, elderly and homeless, who is caught in the process of simultaneously applying for benefits and housing. He visits Interfaith for a chat and basic food for a few days and an occasional clean set of clothes.
Operations - Clothes Closet
What is Tracy Interfaith Ministries' 'clothes closet'? The end product is a 'store' where a client or the client-family 'shops'
for garments, shoes, coats or bedding for those in their household. However, there are two major phases before the 'store' is ready for clients.
1) New or gently used garments, shoes and bedding are received. Every item is donated by members of the community and local businesses. Donations are received daily at the back door by volunteers. Donors are provided a receipt. There is one large room that provides temporary storage.
2) From the receiving area, the donations make way to the 'sorting' room – where each week dozens of volunteers inspect each item and are then placed in the 'store' areas designated for men, women and children by size, etc.
The "Clothes Closet", made ready by our donors and volunteers, meets the needs of clients five days a week.

Clippers tied 2-all losing 104-83 to Grizzlies
MEMPHIS, Tenn. The Clippers came here with a comfortable 2-0 lead in their series with Memphis. They leave with the series even and forward Matt Barnes saying they got "punked" on the Grizzlies' home floor.
After talking of being the aggressor, the Clippers let the Grizzlies get out to a quick start Saturday and run away for a 104-83 victory that knotted the first-round series at 2-all.
"I think they were the aggressors," said reserve guard Jamal Crawford, who finished with 12 points. "Whenever you're the aggressors, things tend to go your way. We were the aggressors the first two games, and now we have to get back to it."
Apparently, Barnes let his teammates know in the locker room afterward that they not only weren't aggressive, but let the Grizzlies control the style of play. As media walked in, the Clippers' reserve forward succinctly said Los Angeles got "punked" in the two losses.
"It shouldn't come to that," Clippers star Chris Paul said when asked about what Barnes said. "Nothing is malicious out there, but it is a dogfight. Both teams fighting for their playoff lives, and I think we have to approach it that way."
Paul and Blake Griffin each had 19 points for the Clippers, with Griffin also grabbing 10 rebounds for his first double-double of this postseason.
Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph provided an inside dominance for Memphis, each scoring 24 points. Gasol grabbed 13 rebounds and Randolph nine as Memphis had a 45-28 advantage on the boards. Tayshaun Prince and Mike Conley added 15 points apiece, Conley handing out a postseason team-record 13 assists.
Tony Allen and Quincy Pondexter finished with 10 points each.
Memphis' victory means both teams have won on their home courts through the first four games, heading back to Los Angeles for Game 5 on Tuesday night.
"We just got beat up on the glass and everywhere," said guard Chauncey Billups, one of two Los Angeles starters held scoreless. "The big boys really played well for them. But this is why we worked so hard to get home-court advantage. It's a three-game series now, obviously two games in LA, if it goes that far."
Los Angeles found itself down early as Prince, who struggled through the first three games got out to a fast start. But the Clippers weathered the early burst and were up 47-46 lead at the break behind 14 points from Paul, who scored in the final second to give Los Angeles the lead.
Whatever the Clippers did in the first half vanished after halftime. Memphis outscored the Clippers 58-36 in the second half, and the Clippers hit only a third of their shots. They managed only 16 points in the final quarter as coach Vinny Del Negro finally surrendered, sitting his starters for the final couple of minutes.
"Well, obviously, the fourth quarter wasn't our best quarter," Del Negro said. "They beat us up on the glass again, second-chance points. It was a four-point game going into the fourth, and then we couldn't get anything done offensively."

LeBron Watch: Report indicates Miami is the choice
|07.08.10 at 6:26 am ET
According to reports from Newsday and ESPN, LeBron James has decided to sign with the Miami Heat, joining Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh there. James will announce his decision Thursday night at 9 p.m. in an ESPN special.
Shortly after midnight, Newsday's Alan Hahn tweeted that "multiple sources" indicated James had decided to pass on the Knicks and go to Miami.
The ESPN report by Chris Broussard followed about an hour later. It notes that James' friend Chris Paul has urged the superstar to stay in Cleveland and play for new coach Byron Scott, who previously coached Paul in New Orleans, and that James could reconsider his choice. Other family and friends apparently also have reservations about how James would be perceived joining a power-packed team and if that would take away from his brand.
A report at Yahoo! Sports indicates that James' representatives began calling free agents Wednesday to assess their interest in joining the new "Big Three" in Miami. The Heat have only two players under contract: forward Michael Beasley and point guard Mario Chalmers.
However, the Yahoo! report noted that James reserves the right to change his mind and sign with his hometown Cavaliers, who can pay him a six-year, $125 million contract, more than $30 million more than what he could get from the Heat.
'LeBron always waits until the last minute to make a decision,' Yahoo! quotes Chris Dennis, who used to run James' foundation. 'He always does.'

- Introduction
- General considerations
- Early history of hand tools
- Later development of hand tools
The Mousterian flake tools
The Mousterian and related flake industries followed the Acheulian. A refinement of the prepared-core technique, termed Levallois, was developed during the middle to upper Acheulian. In this method, a core was craftily trimmed in such a manner that a skillfully applied last blow would detach a large, preshaped flake directly usable as an implement; the core was discarded. Such a flake tool, with one flat surface, is known as a unifacial tool because a single bevel forms the working edge. There are two principal kinds of flakes, points and scrapers. The former are roughly triangular, with two trimmed or sharp edges meeting in a point, the base or butt of the triangle being thick and blunt. The side scrapers have a sharp edge in the long direction of the flake, with an opposite, thicker butt section. The scraper could function as a knife, although it is speculated that it was used for working wood and skins, a supposition leading to the idea that skins were being used for clothing.

07.09.05 - By Kevin Purcell: I have to admit that writing this article makes me a bit of a hypocrite. Ive said before that because of the wretched state of the heavyweight division, people should just turn their attention to other weight classes with far more quality instead of bemoaning the heavies. So for that I apologise, but I feel its important to try and clear the fog that still lingers in the aftermath of Lewis-Klitschko.
The Fight
Despite the fight doctor deeming Klitschko unable to continue due to a hideous gash over his left eye, he was judged to have won 4 of the 6 rounds. Because of this, many people - including Klitschko himself use this to argue that he wouldve gone on to win the fight. But due to the exhaustive nature of the fight (both were constantly trying to push each other round and considering they both weighed about 250lbs, thatd make anyone tire), Lewis poor conditioning and Klitschkos alleged stamina problem, and mainly because of the punishment being dished out to each other, theres no way the fight wouldve gone to the scorecards.
The scorecards tell us that Klitschko was doing well early on but was he the more likely to knock Lewis out before getting knocked out himself?
Dr. Ironfist connected with several big right hands throughout and Lewis legs appeared unsteady on more than one occasion. But the champion fought back in round 6 and delivered a pulverizing uppercut that Klitschko admirably stood up to. Another uppercut had Klitschko in trouble but the bell sounded before Lewis could capitalise. So Lewis finished the round and subsequently, the fight - looking like he was getting back on top. In addition to this, the swelling underneath Klitschkos eye was getting worse and within a couple of rounds its likely that his vision wouldve been completely obscured, leaving him open to his opponents main weapon, the overhand right.
But as Lewis went to sit down he almost ended up on the floor as he slumped onto his stool. He looked completely spent so maybe he wouldve been the one to get knocked out if the fight progressed. Maybe he knew he wouldnt last much longer and his performance in round 6 was one last desperate attempt at a KO to retain his crown rather than just warming to the task at hand. Different people obviously have different ideas about who wouldve finished the fight as champion but based on what Ive just said, if the fight had continued I think its too difficult to pinpoint which fighter was the more likely to emerge from the contest victorious. It really could have gone either way.
So what did that night in June 2003 at the Staples Center tell us about the fighters? Some people may find this surprising but both fighters went up in my estimation. Klitschkos biggest fight to date had been Chris Byrd. Until about ten days before the bout, he was preparing for a tune-up against the unheralded Cedric Boswell. So to be suddenly tackling the formidable Lewis mustve been daunting, even though it meant getting a shot at the title. Vitali displayed little sign of fear as he battled with Lewis. He began to take more punches as the fight wore on including some cracking uppercuts in round 6 but his chin stood up to the test. Even though Lewis was clearly below par, it was a brave performance from the big Ukranian and he deserves a lot of respect for it.
On the other hand, this fight signalled the end of Lennox Lewis. Whatever about weighing in at a career-high 256lbs, the sight of him lumbering around the ring, seemingly not knowing what to do when hit, and his reflexes unable to allow him to dodge punches that were hardly Mayweather-like, proved that this was a fight too far. Im not just making excuses for him here, watch him just 19 months earlier against Hasim Rahman, fleet-footed in comparison, and youll know what Im talking about. And I dont think it was a case of him not training properly either. Granted, he probably wouldve gotten past Kirk Johnson at 356lbs, but hed already been beaten twice in supposedly easy defences so I dont think complacency was an issue. Father Time had caught up with him and it was just impossible for him to get into proper shape.
However, I thought he showed a lot of guts. His heart had been called into question before but, much like Klitschko and his chin, he put those allegations to rest. He fought back gallantly in the face of adversity, and if he was going to lose then he would do so having given it his best shot. As it turned out, he ground out a somewhat fortuitous victory. But it was also perfectly legitimate. Klitschko was unlucky to receive such a hideous gash, but it was caused by a punch not a headbutt so as far as Im concerned, theres no argument there. These things happen in sport and you just accept it.
But despite the legitimacy of the win, a question mark was left hanging over Lewis. Thats why people were so disappointed when he retired before giving Klitschko a rematch. I dont see any mystery to his decision though. Lennox realised the game was up. His abilities would only have deteriorated further in the time it took for a rematch to take place. What was the point in taking an undignified hammering at the end of an excellent career? He shouldnt have waited so long to come to a decision but I imagine he was in a big dilemma. He probably wanted nothing more than to go back out and finish Klitschko off, silencing his critics once more. But in the end he decided that his body just wasnt up to the task anymore. It was the right decision. He knew hed be accused of cowardice and his legacy questioned but hed also watched Joe Louis and his hero Muhammad Ali suffer terrible beatings after fighting on too long and though No thanks.
People claiming Lewis was scared and other rubbish should think for a moment. This guy had twice jumped straight back into the ring with fighters who had knocked him clean out and had no hesitation facing other big-hitters like Razor Ruddock, Tyson, Briggs and Bruno. No, Lewis had already taken a risk against Klitschko, emerged unscathed, and can now enjoy life with his young family with his health perfectly intact. Unfortunately this decision was harsh on Klitschko. He deserved a rematch and seems especially aggrieved because Lewis agreed to grant him another bite at the cherry just after the fight was stopped. But in the emotional aftermath of a big fight, you cant hold people to these things.
Lewis was exhausted physically and mentally, so when Klitschko is up in his face screaming for a rematch, its fair to say that he was hardly in the right frame of mind to decide whether he would continue fighting or retire. Klitschko was perfectly entitled to push for a rematch because if he had gone on to defeat Lewis (an almost certainty), then it wouldve been a good payday and more importantly, an impressive name on his record. He knew there werent any other names out there like Lewis for him to challenge. But this is where he has faltered. He shouldve decided, Ok, I wont get the chance to beat the best heavyweight out there which would automatically make me the best, but Ill go out anyway and clean out the division, leaving people in no doubt as to who the best is.
Vitali demolished Kirk Johnson while waiting for Lewis to make a decision, then the WBC decided that he had to beat Corrie Sanders to win their belt. No problems there. But then he shouldve made his move. Blow out WBA champion John Ruiz and rid us all of his tedium. Get revenge on WBO king Lamon Brewster. Or most of all, dig up heaven and earth to get a rematch with IBF supremo Chris Byrd. Instead, all he has done in the 17 months since claiming the WBC belt is beat a completely overmatched Danny Williams. Obviously I dont expect him to have managed to secure bouts with all three of the other belt-holders, but he shouldve gotten one of them in the ring by now.
I realise that they are Don King promoted fighters and complications will arise in negotiations, but if he had kicked and screamed long enough, then he wouldve gotten something. Injuries have played a part in this too but I still feel he couldve done more. On paper, Klitschko has the tools to become the best heavyweight. He seems to take this for granted already, maybe that partly explains why he doesnt appear pushed to unify the titles. But in my opinion, until he actually goes out and accomplishes this, then the division will continue to drift through an air of confusion and uncertainty. Hasim Rahman is a step in the right direction. Lets hope these steps quickly turn into strides befitting of his physical stature.

Gambling referendum[edit]
Lake County commissioners are calling for a special election that would ask voters if a gambling venue should be allowed in the city. Mayor David Yeager proposed a horse track alongside a card room venue on February 3, 2009 during a city council meeting. Yeager said, "pari-mutuel gambling would put people to work in a county struggling with a 9.7 percent unemployment rate."[5] Since neither Lake County or Minneola currently have gambling venues, state law mandates that the citizens of the county will have to vote on the issue during a special election. According to election officials, a special election could cost the county up to $375,000.[5] The City Council voted to not place this item on a special election and to pass on any gambling venues.

Women comprise the majority of Registered Dental Assistants in the United States. Individuals in this line of work make around $17.04 per hour on average. Total cash compensation to Registered Dental Assistants approaches anywhere from $25K on the lower end to $49K on the higher end; in exceptional cases, this can include more than $2K from bonuses and upwards of $4K from profit sharing. The most influential factor affecting pay for this group is the company, though the particular city and experience level have a (lesser) impact as well. More than a third enjoy medical while more than two-fifths get dental coverage. Vision coverage is also available to approximately one in eight. Most Registered Dental Assistants report high levels of job satisfaction. Respondents to the PayScale salary survey provided the data for this report.

Registered dental assistants work alongside dentists to provide dental care for patients. Their duties are a mix of patient care, laboratory procedures, and clerical work. Exact responsibilities vary from state to state due to licensing requirements. Some patient-care tasks include setting up and sterilizing instruments, handing instruments to the dentist, preparing the patient for treatment, and educating patients on proper dental care. Many registered dental assistants also process dental x-rays, expose radiography, and perform lab duties such as making teeth casts and temporary crowns. Finally, registered dental assistants frequently work in administrative capacity. This includes scheduling appointments, maintaining patient records, and processing patient bills and payments.Read More...
Typically registered dental assistants work in private dental offices. In this environment, they work directly with a dentist, dental hygienists, and dental laboratory technicians. Some dental offices only have four-day work weeks (Monday-Thursday), and many registered dental assistants work during regular business hours. Registered dental assistants can also work in hospitals, dental schools, or clinics; these environments may have varied schedules and hours. Registered dental assistants can work full time or part time, depending on the position.
The exact education and licensint required to become a registered dental assistant varies from state to state. There is a national certification awarded to those who pass the Certified Dental Assistant examination. To be eligible to take this exam, a program accredited by the Commission on Dental Accreditation must be completed. Many of these programs exist nationwide; they are offered at many community colleges, vocational schools, or technical institutes and typically take less than a year to complete. Some states have specific state licenses or additional licenses (such as a dental x-ray license). Many positions also require a current CPR certificate.
Many skills are needed to become a successful registered dental assistant. Excellent interpersonal skills are needed to comfort anxious dental patients. Also needed are great organizational skills, a keen attention to detail, good manual dexterity, and be able to work well with a team.

For Registered Dental Assistants, progressing to a Registered Dental Hygienist role may result in a significant raise. On average, a Registered Dental Hygienist can earn $67K annually. A Registered Dental Assistant may also move into a role as a Registered Expanded Function Dental Assistant or a Dental Hygienist.
Family Dental, Pacific Dental Services Incorporated, Western Dental Services, Inc., Family Dental Care, and Western Dental Centers are some prominent firms with considerable interest in employing a large team of Registered Dental Assistants. Heading up the field in terms of compensation, DDS Inc. offers the most; Registered Dental Assistants earn $46K on average there.
Offering only $28K on average, Western Dental Centers seems to pay the least. Moreover, the pay scale seems pretty narrow there; employees make $21K on the lower end and $43K on the higher end.
Survey respondents exploit a significant toolbox of skills in their work. Most notably, skills in Leadership, Periodontics, Order Inventory, and CAD/CAM are correlated to pay that is above average, with boosts in pay of 7 percent. At the other end of the pay range are skills like Microsoft Office. Those educated in Patient Education tend to be well versed in Order Inventory and Scheduling.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
For Registered Dental Assistants, level of experience appears to be a somewhat less important part of the salary calculation — more experience does not correlate to noticeably higher pay. Salaries for the relatively untried average out to around $30K, but survey participants with five to 10 years of experience earn a significantly higher median of $37K. Registered Dental Assistants claiming one to two decades of experience make an estimated median of $40K. Veterans who have surpassed the 20-year mark may make only slightly more than those who are navigating the mid-career stage; the more senior group reports median earnings of around $43K.
For Registered Dental Assistants, San Francisco, San Jose, and San Diego, three California cities, are home to the highest salaries in the United States, all offering a rate above the national average. Registered Dental Assistants in San Antonio take home the lowest salaries, earning a whopping 20 percent less than the national average. Employers pay around 20 percent less in Fort Worth and 14 percent less in Nashville, below-median salaries for those in this field.

From the Publisher
"This book has the potential to be important in the field, the leading statement for a movement. It does not call merely for words to balance the statistics, as in the tired debate between the humanities and the sciences. On the contrary, it argues that the words and the statistics are all part of the argument. The contributors apply theories of judgment ranging from classical rhetoric to modern theories of narrative to see the judging whole. The book proposes a new way to see old debates. . . . In short, the book is excellent."—Donald N. McCloskey, University of Iowa

If there is an informal mistress of ceremonies at the Luxury Pet Pavilion, it is self-described New York pet socialite and national luxury pet products expert Charlotte Reed, whose height is made even more impressive by her snakeskin sandals, and who is sporting dangling rhinestone dog-bone earrings. "This market has just exploded," Reed tells me, because "people really love their petsjust like children! They want to dress like them, take them to baseball games, to yappy hours." (Yappy hours?)
Reed points me toward a display of exquisite armchairs and settees that are lavishly tufted and look like they come from a miniature version of the Shabby Chic store in Soho. "Look how beautiful that furniture is. It's not like the old blanket, the dog bed you kicked under the couch when company was coming. Look at all the tassels, the bindings!"

- Richmont Mines (RIC -3.5%) and Asanko Gold (AKG -9.9%) are lower after each announced multi-million dollar bought-deal financing agreements, the start of what could be a better financing environment after a difficult 2014.
- RIC plans to use proceeds from its financing for an accelerated development plan for the high-grade Deep C zone at its Island gold mine in Ontario; RIC is planning for $56.3M in capex for 2015, with 85% focused on the Island mine.
- AKG says it will use its funds for working capital and corporate purposes to further enhance its balance sheet.

- The rally in large gold miner names (GDX +0.8%) may have gotten ahead of itself as the companies still have plenty of work ahead of them as they move to repair balance sheets and focus on cash flow over growth, writes Liam Denning. The smaller miners (GDXJ +2.7%) have rallied faster this year, but they fell further last year, and their attraction now would be the potential for deals - the larger players are pushing off projects, and thus need another way to replenish resources.
- Not all are good targets, but those with projects closer to completion and for higher grade ores are most attractive, says CIBC's Jeff Kileen, highlighting Continental Gold (CGOOF +0.5%), Premier Gold Mines (PIRGF +1.1%), and Pretium Resources (PVG -0.8%).
- Other smaller players with attractive projects starting up this decade include Asanko Gold (AKG), Golden Queen Mining (GQMNF +0.6%), and Orezone Gold (ORZCF -0.2%).

- A highlight of the deal will be the combination of the neighboring Esaase and Obotan gold projects in Ghana, with a combined resource base of 7.5M oz. measured and indicated resources and an additional 2.9M oz. inferred resources, of which 4.8M oz. are proven and probable mineral reserves.
- A merger attempt last year by the two Ghana miners was dropped when it appeared the deal wouldn't get enough support from PMI shareholders.

Victorino goes on 15-day DL; Bianchi called up from Triple-A
BOSTON (AP) The Red Sox have placed right fielder Shane Victorino on the 15-day disabled list Sunday with a tight left calf.

When I was studying many years ago in England, I worked on a History of Nursery Rhymes project, which included a poem about the letters of the alphabet, dating from the 18th century. It started something like this A – was an apple pie, B – bit it, etc. At the end it writes 'X, Y, Z and ampersand all wished for a piece in hand'. I have often wondered why the ampersand was included! Thank you for the info.

Media frenzy on marathon investigation
Thursday - 4/18/2013, 10:06am EDT
AP Television Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- For about an hour Wednesday afternoon, people could flip through different television channels and hear completely different accounts of the investigation into the Boston Marathon explosions: Some news organizations reported the arrest of a suspect and then took those claims back.
CNN and the Fox News Channel reported that a suspect in Monday's bombing had been arrested. The Associated Press and the Boston Globe said a suspect had been taken into custody. Within an hour, the FBI denied that a suspect had been captured, leading the three news organizations that had reported the arrest to back down from those claims.
The AP, while reporting the federal denial, said that its original source was standing by its claim that a suspect had been taken into custody. The news cooperative said its source was a law enforcement official speaking on condition of anonymity. By nightfall, with no evidence that anyone was in custody, the original source was unable to further explain what was going on.
ABC, CBS and NBC all broke into their regular programming to report progress in the case, but did not say there was an arrest or someone brought into custody.
The frantic afternoon presented another example of news organizations being embarrassed by a race to report information under intense competitive pressure. It was reminiscent of the day last year that the Supreme Court handed down its decision on President Obama's health care plan, when both CNN and Fox initially got the ruling wrong in their haste to report it.
In Wednesday's scenario, CNN's John King had jumped out early around lunchtime, saying that a department store's surveillance camera had helped law enforcement spot a person dropping a container on the street that was believed to be the second of two bombs that detonated near the race's finish line.
King reported at 1:45 p.m. that an arrest had been made. The Globe tweeted the same thing at 1:53, without attribution. Six minutes later the Globe sent out a second tweet, saying CNN was the source of its arrest report. Fox News Channel's Megyn Kelly said at 1:55 that the network had been told of an arrest.
The Associated Press sent out a NewsAlert at 1:41 p.m. saying that an arrest was imminent. At 2:02, the AP said a suspect had been taken into custody, but did not say there was an arrest. The Globe also followed with its own report that a suspect was in custody, citing an unnamed official familiar with the investigation.
The three biggest broadcast networks jumped into the story with cautious reports of progress within five minutes of each other shortly before 2 p.m. NBC reporter Pete Williams was insistent that news organizations reporting an arrest had jumped the gun.
"From the beginning of this, this has been the hallmark of this story -- information going in totally different directions coming from normally very reliable sources," Williams said. "We can't just flip a coin on this."
At 2:15 on MSNBC, Williams said that "at the end of the day, somebody is going to be right, because every news organization is reporting something different."
King's exclusive then began to be shot down by three different CNN reporters giving their own on-air reports: Fran Townsend, Joe Johns and Tom Fuentes.
As Chris Cuomo was saying on the air that "we don't know what's right or not right at this point," the onscreen crawl was still reporting that an arrest had been made.
CNN spokeswoman Barbara Levin noted that the network had three credible sources on the local and federal levels for King's initial report. "Based on this information, we reported our findings," she said. "As soon as our sources came to us with new information, we adjusted our reporting."
On Fox, Kelly was dialing back that network's arrest claim, noting the conflicting reports. At 2:15, Kelly told viewers that two law enforcement officials had told Fox there had been an arrest.
"Other news outlets -- some are reporting that an arrest has been made and some are reporting that that is not the case," she said. "Here's the truth: We don't know ... We just want to be transparent with you on the information that is coming in a breaking news situation that seems to be anything but clear at this moment."
The Globe at 2:40 p.m. reported that both the United States attorney and Boston police said there was no arrest. The Globe reported late Wednesday night that "after further reporting, the Globe is no longer convinced that its previously reliable source had accurate information."

Europe's Iceberg 2015
Despite world-class research institutions and a crop of novel drugs making their way through the clinic, European biotech is finding it hard to reach the end zone with its innovations.
BioCentury's 13th annual European Iceberg survey foresees record financing demand, lifted by higher cash burn and more public biotechs.
J&J thinks Achillion's lead program is best-in-class and will give the pharma its best shot at a six-week pan-genotypic regimen in HCV.

UPDATE 5/6:The case against 32-year-old MichaelBrandonHogue will not go forward.Prosecutors have agreed to 'NolleProsequi' the case, meaning they have withdrawn it from court but reserve the right to bring the case back within a year.
Hogue tells 13NewsNow that he was actually the victim in the case and should never have been charged.
GLOUCESTER COUNTY -- A man who broke into a house in Gloucester County got more than he bargained for after he was beaten up by a resident inside the home.
Police say when 32-year-old Michael Brandon Hogue forced entry into the home in the area of Orchard Lane and Hickory Fork Road March 26, a struggle ensued between him and a male resident.
Fearing for his life, Hogue eventually fled on foot. Police located him at a nearby residence a short time later. He was then transported to a nearby hospital to be treated.
A warrant was later obtained for Breaking and Entering with the intent to commit a Misdemeanor. Hogue is currently be held in the Gloucester County Jail without bond.
The male resident was not injured during the ordeal. An investigation is still underway.

In the past year or so flat panel monitor prices have entered free-fall, with massive 27″ displays widely available for under $300. Given that, why would anyone even consider spending over $1,500 on a somewhat larger 30″ display? Lenovo has lent Benchmark Reviews one of their ThinkVision LT3053p units to review, so let's see what all that extra money buys you.

Gold futures fall 0.22% on global cues
New Delhi: Gold prices fell by Rs 75 to Rs 32,076 per 10 grams in futures trade Thursday as speculators trimmed positions, largely in tune with a weak trend overseas.
At the Multi Commodity Exchange, gold for delivery in February fell by Rs 75, or 0.23 percent, to Rs 32,076 per 10 grams, with a business turnover of 267 lots.
Similarly, the metal for delivery in December traded lower by Rs 69, or 0.22 percent, to Rs 31,677 per 10 grams, with a business turnover of 3,273 lots.
Marketmen attributed to a weak trend in the global markets as a higher dollar curbed demand for alternative investments including gold.
Meanwhile, gold lost 0.2 percent to USD 1,723.30 an ounce in Singapore.

We're still here: meet the editorsMore than 7 million people in Britain are over 70. By 2027, there will be in excess of 10 million. Yet the voices of the older generation are rarely heard. That is why today's G2 is guest-edited by five people aged 70-plus, chosen from hundreds of applicants who wrote in last year. This special edition examines what life is really like when you get older. Does sex end after 70? How does it feel to become a carer for your loved one?

Earth's Origins May Be Explained Through Mantle's 'Hidden Flux'
Brett Smith for redOrbit.com – Your Universe Online
One of the more popular theories surrounding the formation of the planets involves the countless collisions of smaller objects in orbit around the sun 4.5 billion years ago. However, proponents of that theory are missing one thing: the Earth's chemical composition is distinctly different from the meteors that are currently striking the planet.
Scientists have found that the lead-uranium ratio of meteors is much different than that of the Earth's mantle, but a new study from an MIT researcher has found a "hidden flux" of material in the mantle that could explain the difference.
As tectonic plates in the Earth's crust slide against each other, one is often pushed down deep into the mantle. Simultaneously, liquid, hot magma from the mantle rises to the surface via volcanic eruptions.
According to the MIT scientist's study, published in Earth and Planetary Science Letters, as much as 70 percent of this rising magma turns into dense rock and drops back into the mantle. When calculated into the entire composition of the mantle, this lead-heavy flux of material puts Earth's composition much closer to that of meteorites.
"Now that we know the composition of this flux, we can calculate that there's tons of this stuff dropping down from the base of the crust into the mantle, so it is likely an important reservoir," said co-author Oliver Jagoutz, an assistant professor of geology at MIT. "This has a lot of implications for understanding how the Earth evolved through history."
To reach their conclusion, the scientists examined an area of northern Pakistan called the Kohistan arc, which was once a group of islands that were slowly smashed as India collided into Asia 40 million years ago.
"When India came in, it slammed into the arc, and the arc extended and rotated itself," Jagoutz said. "Because of that, we now have a cross-section of the mantle-to-crust transition. This is the only place on Earth where this exists."
Between 2000 and 2007, Jagoutz traveled the region collecting various rock samples representing the crust and mantle. An analysis of these rock samples revealed that some of them were "density-unstable" — meaning they could potentially sink into the mantle and create a hidden lead reservoir. A further analysis showed that the amount of lead that the samples represented would be enough to explain the uranium-lead ratio discrepancy between Earth and meteors.
Bruce Buffett, a professor of earth and planetary science at the University of California at Berkeley, said the hidden reservoir theory supported by the study is "interesting and plausible," but he noted that there are other valid theories.
"There are a large variety of options on the table to explain the complex structure we detect seismically at the bottom of the mantle," said Buffett, who was not involved in the study. "The attractive aspect of [Jagoutz's] idea is that it has testable consequences. This is how progress is made."
"If we are right, one of the questions we have is: Why is the Earth capable of hiding something from us? Why is there never a volcano that brings up these rocks?" Jagoutz added. "You'd think it'd come back up, but it doesn't. It's actually interesting."

Hello, my name is Don, I am 23 years old and I live in Holland. For my nose I'd really like to have a more narrow and defined nose. One doctor in Manila, Philipines, advided me this: "to augment the bridge with an implant, infracture the nasal bones and do alarplasty or trimming of the sides". It sounds really good to me. Tho I'd really like to have a second opinion. What do you think?

Nasal narrowing, implant
Yes, Don, you will need nasal bone fractures to narrow the boney pyramid. From the side view, you have a cartilaginous bump that needs to be taken down before an implant is inserted. How narrow do you want your nose. maybe an implant is unnecesarry.
