My latest monthly column for FCW reports on academic research by Boaz Shamir of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem and Adam Grant of the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania regarding the question of whether government managers can improve the performance of their employees by themselves talking about the mission, values, and public purpose of their organizations. Regular readers of my column – may I take this occasion to urge blog readers to check the icon marked "Columns" on the left side of any page you open of the FCW website towards the beginning of each month to check for my newest column? – may have noticed that increasingly I have been using the column to present academic research relevant to public managers.
Some, perhaps many, practitioners are suspicious of scholarly work, including (maybe especially) scholarly work on organizations. Some of this, frankly, is simply anti-professor prejudice, no more attractive than other kinds of prejudice. Some are quick to dismiss academics as impractical, and to throw around phrases like, "This may look fine in theory, but it doesn't work in practice." Many are quick to accept the findings of academic research only when the findings correspond with their personal experiences in the workplace – and then are quick to denounce the findings as "obvious."
In my view, practitioners who take this stance are cutting themselves off from sources of insight that could help them do a better job managing.
One thing academics are trained to do is to design empirical research that has the potential to shed light on practical problems in a disciplined way. Anecdotes and personal experiences are fine, but relying on them runs the really strong risk of relying on information that may be atypical, may be biased by preconceptions that lead us to interpret our personal experiences in line with those preconceptions, and may be confounded by other factors that we don't account for in drawing conclusions from our experiences. By contrast, good academic research has a large enough sample size to allow drawing conclusions from the data and takes account of ("controls for" in academic jargon) other factors that may affect results, either through using statistical techniques such as regression analysis or through experimental research designs that create random selection and thus aren't biased by confounding factors. In short, one thing academic research brings to the table is a greater ability to feel some degree of confidence about the conclusions the research presents. (Of course, academic findings can be controversial because scholars dispute about, for example, whether confounding factors were appropriately accounted for, what the direction of causation is – is a happy workforce more productive, or is there some common underlying psychological condition producing both happiness and productivity? – and whether lab results apply to situations, or populations, outside the laboratory.
There are of course theories some scholars produce that are not borne out by reality – the origin of the saw, "this works in theory, but not in practice." Nonetheless, I would dispute the saw – if the theory doesn't work in practice, it's not a good theory, so it doesn't work in theory. Good theories about reality need, at least as a general matter, to work in reality. It is also true that some scholars are obsessed with questions of little practical significance. But others are obsessed with questions of great practical significance. These scholars embrace the statement of one of the founders of modern social psychology, Kurt Lewin: "There is nothing as practical as a good theory." Good scholarship has a nice mixture of a theory with practical implications and a rigorous empirical test of the theory. Practitioners should be happy to learn about what such scholars have to say, and this is what I am trying to share in these columns.

All sales are final. There are ways to make sure your child does not make unauthorized purchases, like not lending a device with your credit card information to them, or enabling restrictions.

Permissions | Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
DragonTravel gives players the opportunity to ride dragons in Minecraft.
It offers server-admins the possibility to add a new outstanding way of travel to their servers.
More videos on DragonTravel (including tutorials)
- Allows admins to set destinations for the dragons.
- Allows players with the specific permission to summon and mount a dragon and...
...fly flights which consists out of waypoints(as many as you like)
...fly to destinations which have been set by an admin before.
...fly to coordinates chosen via command.
...fly to players choosen via command(different permission-nodes for other types of travel).
...fly to your faction's home-position (Factions required)
...fly to a home-position which has been set by this player earlier.
- Allows admins to set stations and limit the mounting of dragons to these locations (or a specified radius around it).
- Possibility to require a special item for players to use the plugin (e.g. a dragon-egg)
- Making signs which automatically mount a player and bring them to the written destination on the sign.
- Permissions-Support
- Support of all Economy-Plugins supported by Vault (Vault is required for that)!
Admins can set different prices for all ways of travel!
- Admins can choose in the config whether dragons of this plugin should destroy blocks or if any dragons should break blocks when touching.
- All messages are fully customizable! Default messages.yml is English, but we provide other language-files in our wiki.
Due to the fact that things can change rapidly in this project, I stopped maintaining instructions on the plugin and other information like a list of commands/permissions in the forums, on this page etc. and decided to create a central location where you can always find all information up-to-date: The DragonTravel-Wiki.
Please use this wiki and report all mistakes you find in there and avoid posting questions on topics like commands/permissions/sign-creation etc., which are answered in the wiki, in the comments.
The questions and requests posted in the comments are repeating and there are some questions we answer at least once per week, so we decided to write down some of those Frequently Asked Questions.
Please read the questions below and see if you can find your question there, this really saves us time we can then spend on the development of DragonTravel.
- Is it possible to change the speed the dragon's wings are flapping?
- Is it possible to remove the dragon's health-bar?
- Is it possible to control the dragon manually?
- Is it possible to move the rider closer to the dragon to avoid him flying above it?
- DragonTravel does not start, what can be the problem?
You can find the answers to those questions in the FAQ!
Please read the paragraph above before posting any questions!

Please update for 1.8.7, i can't open my server without that plugin :(
Jordy141 Jun 20, 2015 at 11:20 UTC - 0 likes
Ah, it's a sad thing there was no notice about not having compatibility with Cauldron anymore though, i had to find this back in the comments.
my server's infrastructure made heavy use of this plugin, and ever since i upgraded this no longer works. although by now places are connected by alternatives, travel remains fairly inefficient and it would be great to see this plugin become compatible again.

How about compatibility with cauldron? any change you are going to fix that soon?

The Arlington School provides an individualized education experience to a wide variety of students.
While there is no one "type" of student at The Arlington School, many of our students come here because, in one way or another, their needs were not met at a larger public or private school because of our small size, it is possible to address the many issues that middle school and high school students normally face.
Problems which are usually ignored in a traditional educational system.
At The Arlington School we recognize that there is more to learning than what occurs in the classroom.
In fact, a student's entire life affects his/her education.
We believe that providing the best education possible means more than just teaching subjects.

No End in Sight: Debating the Existence of Infinity
Poster Handle
Post Content
Despite being in existence for more than 2,000 years, the concept of infinity has endured as an enigmatic, and oftentimes challenging, idea for mathematicians, physicists and philosophers. Does infinity really exist, or is it just part of the fabric of our imaginations?
A panel of scientists and mathematicians gathered to discuss some of the profound questions and controversies surrounding the concept of infinity here Friday (May 31), as part of the World Science Festival, an annual celebration and exploration of science.
Part of the difficulty in trying to solve some of the abstract questions related to infinity is that these problems fall beyond the more established mathematical theories, said William Hugh Woodin, a mathematician at the University of California, Berkeley. [Watch: World Science Festival Highlights]
"It's kind of like mathematics lives on a stable island — we've built them a solid foundation," Woodin said. "Then, there's the wild land out there. That's infinity."
Where it all began
A philosopher named Zeno of Elea, who lived from 490 B.C. to 430 B.C, is credited with introducing the idea of infinity.
The concept was studied by ancient philosophers, including Aristotle, who questioned whether infinites could exist in a seemingly finite physical world, said Philip Clayton, dean of the Claremont School of Theology at Claremont Lincoln University in Claremont, Calif.Theologians, including Thomas Aquinas, used the infinite to explain the relationship between humans, God and the natural world.
In the 1870s, a German mathematician named Georg Cantor pioneered work in a field that became known as set theory. According to set theory, integers, which are numbers without a fraction or decimal component (such as 1, 5, -4), make up an infinite set that is countable. On the other hand, real numbers, which include integers, fractions and so-called irrational numbers, such as the square root of 2, are part of an infinite set that is uncountable.
This led Cantor to wonder about different types of infinity.

Galcon's 7101 controller is a completely waterproof, user-friendly, battery operated automatic controller. Based on the latest waterproof technology, the 7101 controller is specifically developed to perform in all weather conditions for optimal irrigation control, including inside an underground valve box (we do not recommend leaving the controller outside in freezing weather, if it is left outside we recommend strongly to "blow out" the system to make sure that the freezing water will not damage the valve). All products are ideal for drip and sprinkler systems in home gardens, farms and commercial use.When installing the controller in the irrigation system a filter must also be installed between the main irrigation system valve and the controller.

Cosmetic artistry. Clinical excellence.
The Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery Center is now offering secure online consults for cosmetic procedures that include face, nose, eyes and eyelids, abdomen and breast.
An online cosmetic consultation from Cleveland Clinic enables you to get a comprehensive consult from highly trained physician experts all by the click of your mouse.
Learn About An Online Consultation
Social media may be making us more connected, but it's also making us more conscious of our looks, a recent survey says.
One in three facial plastic surgeons polled say patients are more aware of their looks because of social media -- and that this heightened awareness has led to an increase in request for procedures.
Selfies are having an impact on plastic surgery in other ways too. Patients considering plastic or reconstructive surgery often show physicians their selfies, which help them explain what specific goals they would like addressed. This helps the doctor to pinpoint the surgical approach that would work best.
Convenient Locations. Cleveland Clinic Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery Center specialists are located in convenient Cleveland Clinic facilities on the east and west side of Cleveland, and throughout Northeast Ohio.

Ashley Tisdale Grows Up In The TBS Comedy 'Clipped'
August 13, 2012 05:09 PM EDT
Ricki Lake is back with a new daytime talk show, premiering in syndicated television on September 10.
"I've kind of grown up a lot and had this life experience," Ricki told Access Hollywood's Shaun Robinson who visited her on set. "Since going off the air, I went through a really painful divorce, I'm raising two boys. I have a 15-year-old and 11-year-old. I'm newly married and I think we've all evolved."
Ricki introduced Access' Shaun to her husband, Christian Evans, on the set, and the talk show host revealed their very first encounter wasn't completely pleasant.
"I was rude to him," Ricki admitted. "I wasn't nice to him. I met him through my friend and we met at the beach."
It wasn't a blind date, which may have accounted for why Ricki was a little loose with her tongue.
"I had said to [my friend], 'Are you trying to fix me up?' because I was dating these other people and she said, 'Oh, no. He's not your type. He has tattoos.' So I didn't even think of it as a romantic thing," Ricki said.
"I just went, 'Oh, well, this is a sweet person,' and she proceeded to tell me I was damaged goods within five minutes," Christian said.
Christian is supporting his wife as she begins her new journey with "The Ricki Lake Show," which she told Access' Shaun is more mature and thought-provoking.
"The biggest difference for me is that I didn't know what I was doing when I did my old show," Ricki said of how things are different now, compared to when she first hosted a TV talker. "I was 23 years old when I did the pilot.
"This time around I'm not the actor that was cast in the role, I was hired because of my experience," Ricki added.
Ricki's original show was sassy. Asked what the most salacious thing she did on her first "Ricki Lake Show," back then, she said it had to do with squabbling women.
"Oh God, 'He's my baby daddy! Back off, 'biatch'!' That was about as bad as it got, but, I loved [it]," she laughed.
Asked if her new show will have any of those sorts of themes, Ricki confirmed it would – but with a twist.
"You'll see it, but it'll be a different tone, a different kind of flavor," she said.

Best sashimi I have had - freshest, highest quality tuna. Great, diverse menu with plenty of tasty dishes to choose from. Friendly service. So good my friends and I, all serious sushi lovers, went there for dinner 3 times during our 20 day visit.
My new favorite Japanese restaurant in Sydney. Food, value & service... All great. Worth the trip to Crows Nest. I had lunch, their dinner menu looks even better.
Authentic Japanese dining with authentic service and an amazingly good deal on lunch sets. We love going here. It is not an izakaya or ramenya so don't expect exuberant yelling. And if you hate modern jazz music you may not like the soundtrack. But the food is wonderful. So please don't go as we currently never need to reserve a...
The night we visited, Hana was packed with Japanese families which we took as a great sign that the locals set here, and we weren't disappointed.
My wife and I selected 3 entrees and 2 mains which was more than enough to leave us feeling very full. The prawn and scallop dumplings were superb, as were the crab flavoured fish...
I like the sushi served at Hana Jurin. The selection of fish are fresh.
The price and serving porting was reasonable.
We visited this great restaurant recently for dinner. The menu is always full of delicious cuisine.
We had two entrees and three main dishes,which was ample food for the two of us.
