Facing water shortages from town water restrictions and inefficient methods to fill equipment with needed water, an innovative MassDOT foreman at the Upton Facility in Highway Division District 3 built a cistern system to reduce facility water usage from local water supplies by repurposing materials to capture and store rain water.
By using old deicing fluid tanks to store rainwater, the foreman prevented these old materials from becoming waste and found a sustainable and successful solution to a problem impacting the facilities operations.
The rainwater storage system includes a mechanism to circulate the water to prevent stagnation and pumps to increase the speed operators can fill their equipment. There are plans to replicate the system at three other facilities.

A top defense acquisition official has attempted to clear up confusion on how to assess costs early on in developing a product. The clarification, in a memo, was needed because two key factors to foreseeing future spending seem to conflict.
The process has two stages, wrote Ashton Carter, undersecretary of defense for acquisition, technology, and logistics, in an Aug. 24 memo.
First, defense officials first must figure out how much the Defense Department would have to pay to design a product and then keep it throughout its life cycle. It's called the "affordability as a requirement" analysis. Based on it, officials then must make decisions on designs and various choices to keep the product affordable.
"This is also the time when spending money on efforts to reduce future costs can have the biggest payoff," Carter wrote.
At DISA, contract types moving away from firm fixed price
"Should-cost is focused on controlling the cost of the actual work that we are doing and expect to do," he wrote. Those estimates also inform officials as they begin negotiations with companies.
The affordability analysis and the should-cost assumptions may seem in conflict early in the design stage of a product, he wrote, but the initial focus should be on the affordability aspect: What can DOD afford? Officials need to know if DOD's future budgets can maintain the cost of the product. The should-cost analysis becomes central after the design phase.
"The two are compatible, but they must be balanced differently across the product life cycle," Carter wrote.
In his memo, Carter was clearing up confusion about the two ideas that he introduced into the defense acquisition process in 2010. The two ideas have become important to defense officials as DOD's budget tightens.

Researchers work on self-healing structure materials
The sensor system would also tell first responders where to go and what areas were still safe after a collapse. In industry, it would allow businesses to gauge repair costs.
Zagrai said the sensors would involve nanotechnology and microelectronic components.
As for the self-healing materials, Bakhtiarov said the group wants to at least develop substances that heal themselves with exposure to certain temperatures. The engineers are also considering using capsules.

Published May 16, 2013
PART TWO: In New Orleans, Terrance Harris reported the "interior construction being done to upgrade the New Orleans Arena has been under way since May 1, and all indications are that the work will come in right at the budgeted amount." But that "doesn't appear to be the case for phase two of the project, which is the exterior work." SMG Senior VP/Stadiums & Arenas Doug Thornton "informed the Louisiana Stadium and Exposition District Board during Wednesday's monthly meeting that the second part of the project will have to be revised" after coming between $5-7M "over the expected budget." Thornton said that he has "already begun meeting with the contractors and members" of the Pelicans staff to "discuss ways of revising the design of the planned exterior lobby" (NOLA.com, 5/15).
FINDING VALUE: Travis Central Appraisal District Chief Appraiser Marya Crigler yesterday said that Circuit of the Americas "will have an assessed tax value of slightly more than" $290M for '13. In Austin, John Maher notes the appraisal "could result in a tax bill for the circuit of more than" $7.8M. The appraisal for the circuit "includes 20 parcels covering 1,303 acres, 515 of which qualified for agricultural or wildlife valuation." Appraisers "determined the market value of the property to be" $298M. Circuit officials recently "placed the cost of the project at anywhere from" $400M to as much as $450M (AUSTIN AMERICAN STATESMAN, 5/16).
TRACKING THE UPGRADES: BLOODHORSE's Tracy Gantz noted Santa Anita Park on Tuesday "unveiled renovation plans for its turf club and clubhouse at a community meeting held in the track's Chandelier Room." Many of the renovations are "slated to be completed in time for the track's fall meeting, which begins Sept. 25, and its hosting of the Nov. 1-2 Breeders' Cup World Championships at the track in Arcadia, Calif." Plans include an "update for the Chandelier Room," as well as the "creation of a couple of banquet rooms that will overlook the track." Those areas encompass some of what The Stronach Group California Operations Chair Keith Brackpool, whose company owns Santa Anita, called "underutilized areas." The cost of the renovations was not revealed (BLOODHORSE.com, 5/15).

Duncan Sheik 'psyched' about `American Psycho'
NEW YORK (AP) -- Duncan Sheik didn't think a musical about a yuppie serial killer made a ton of sense.
"I said, `This is a terrible idea,'" the Grammy- and Tony-winning singer-songwriter admitted in a phone interview from Boston this week.
Now Sheik, who had the 1996 smash-hit single "Barely Breathing" and is the songwriter of the hit musical "Spring Awakening," finds himself deep in the process of trying to ready a stage version of Bret Easton Ellis' novel "American Psycho."
Sheik and playwright Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa are about halfway done. Aguirre-Sacasa, a comic book writer who recently worked on HBO's "Big Love," has completed the first act and Sheik has written seven songs.
"Now we're in the thick of it," said Sheik, 41. "There's a pretty long road still to go, but I'm psyched about it. The more time I spend on it, the more excited I get about it."
The 1991 novel — later made into a 2000 movie starring Christian Bale — chronicles a homicidal New York yuppie named Patrick Bateman who is obsessed with high-end clothes and beauty products even as he slashes his way through Manhattan. Bateman also fancies himself as a bit of a music critic, but spews out mostly inane ruminations about Genesis and Huey Lewis and the News.
Sheik remembers buying the novel when he was an undergraduate at Brown University, but only got about halfway through it before throwing it across the room. "I found the book really frustrating," he says.
After being approached by producers at The Johnson-Roessler Co. a few years ago, Sheik was skeptical but bought the book again and finished it. After struggling to find a way into the work as a composer, he soon seized on dance music and electronic pop as its soundscape.
For the show, he envisions a four- or five-member band on stage with synthesizers and drum machines, a nod to moody bands like Kraftwerk or Depeche Mode. "It'll probably be 75 percent Duncan Sheik music and 25 percent music of the era and referenced in the book and/or movie."
With the musical still far from done, Sheik isn't sure where it should debut. Though he hopes it will get to Broadway someday, he says the work about a singing serial killer might start off in London or at a theater festival or off-Broadway.
The audience might be in for a wild ride.
"I'm hoping this piece can make 'Spring Awakening' look like 'The Wedding Singer,'" he says, laughing.

Some advantageous initials do a better job of explaining the breadth of Andrea Zittel's work then the cockeyed moniker of conceptual artist / furniture designer that I came up with. A-Z has a full and inspired portfolio from endeavours & undertakings (including bantam breeding), furniture (beautifully functional living units), wall works, structures (the habitable Indy Island), performance, and clothing (personal uniforms of the most excellent variety). Just to be clear, all very good – "A-Z designs for living."

Edwin Ramsey dies at 95; WWII Army cavalry officer in Philippines
Historians have said that losing the Philippines in the early stages of World War II was a defining event in the career of Gen. Douglas MacArthur.The same could be said of Edwin Ramsey. But Ramsey couldn't admit defeat.After MacArthur's retreat in early 1942, Ramsey, an officer in the 26th Cavalry Regiment of the U.S. Army, joined the Philippine resistance. He eventually headed a guerrilla force that grew to 40,000 enlisted men and officers, supplying crucial intelligence that helped lay the foundation for MacArthur's triumphant return more than two years later....

"Friendly Match with Goal Spree" is a concept that gives participants a sense of ownership and confidence in times of change and new directions. By informing employees about what is taking place and actively involving them in the process through establishing strategy and plans for implementation, everyone is motivated to do their best on the day of the match as well as later on when the plans are to be realised.

Process "Basic plan"The program is introduced at a plenary session. Systematic networking involving participants. Participants get to know each other better by use of question cards.
Danmark har en førerposition på det internationale mødemarked. En position som er opnået gennem udviklingen af det innovative danske mødekoncept 'Meetovation'.
Vores omgivelser har en direkte indflydelse på vores humør, produktivitet og ydeevne. Det gælder ikke mindst, når du skal holde møde. Nordjylland byder på kilometervis af sandstrand, varme klitter, og eventyrlige skove, som kan give dit møde ekstra krydderi og sørge for, at motivationen er høj hele dagen. Brug naturen til pause & refleksion, til walk n' talks, eller til teambuilding. Her er 3 steder i Nordjylland, som byder på fantastisk natur til dine møder: Ruths Hotel
This concept helps participants focus on values and communication and encourages them to think differently and proactively. The program takes place in a scenic nature area where facilitators guide participants through goal-orientated activities to achieve measurable results. The concept is targeted towards organisers who wish to unite employees in new situations requiring a high level of positive teamwork. Process The organiser and facilitators determine the overall goals and final program prior to the event.
Møter, kurs og konferanse
The concept supports companies, associations etc. that prioritise responsibility, health, and well-being. Physical activity is one of the key elements of this meeting concept, which focuses on creating new energy among the participants Program The objectives for the meeting are determined in cooperation with the organiser beforehand, and the meeting agenda is then distributed to participants along with a questionnaire to identify participants' knowledge and expectations of the meeting's professional themes and program.
Skagen - Frederikshavn - Sæby
Western day offers a program filled with action designed to strengthen the bonds between participants through challenging and entertaining activities. The concept is tailored for organisers who wish to provide participants with an extraordinary experience with action, togetherness and interpersonal interaction are in focus. Western day activities take place outdoors in a Wild West-themed setting. In the evening a Western-themed party will be held in the conference room and the program concludes with breakfast and wrap-up the following morning.
There are two aspects to an Easy MeetingBox – the tools in the box and a pre-conference dialogue with Comwell meeting designers, who will help create a program for a more beneficial meeting. The Easy MeetingBox offers tools that support innovative processes - such as concept development, strategy meetings and project meetings. The tools stimulate creativity and innovative thinking and can be used by anyone who has received instructions from Comwell's meeting designers.
Employ music in your meeting and get a higher return on investment.
Communicator is designed for events where participants are to discuss issues and key subjects related to new working tasks. Participant appreciation and understanding of the issues is promoted through activities and by nature of the conference facilities themselves. The significance of good communication is an underlying theme throughout the event and through a number of different exercises participant awareness of the benefits of good communication is enhanced. Process First Day
Return on Music is an innovative kick-off event where participants define a product's message using lyrics and music, which they highlight in a professionally produced music video during the meeting. The concept reflects the idea that music is an important element in all aspects of modern society. Music is a powerful and unique tool with which to describe and promote a product. Music speaks to the emotions, raises the spirit, offers motivation and identification and is therefore a useful tool in generating results.
The concept has been designed to support all kinds of events with a green and sustainable emphasis. The environmentally conscious and climate-friendly concept is based on a checklist of eco-friendly criteria relevant for a 72-hour congress. There are four general areas of interest where a basic checklist need to be in place for the congress/conference to be considered green:
The concept aims to improve the relationship between colleagues. Mutual understanding and a sense of belonging with the company are keywords. The different elements of the concept seek to promote a work environment where participants find the inspiration and mutual trust it takes to deal with such issues of understanding and belonging. The concept is founded on the idea that development is enhanced by a shared feeling of togetherness, sensual stimulation and comfortable surroundings.
Participants will experience a whole year of a company's business over the course of just one day – all the challenges and unexpected twists and turns. The company experiences deep trouble and must stave off external threats. It must seek new resources and source new products. The team needs to deliver on high expectations within joint collaboration, communication and endurance. The concept poses both a physical and intellectual challenge.

Over de næste to år vil en række virksomheder og organisationer investere fire millioner kroner i at videreudvikle det danske mødekoncept 'Meetovation', der har givet Danmark en unik position i den internationale mødebranche. Målet er at trække endnu flere møder og konferencer til Danmark.
VisitDenmark and Instagramers Denmark organise instawalks in Copenhagen throughout the year. It is free to take part and great fun, too. If you find yourself in Copenhagen on the next Instawalk, come along and see city from a different angle!
With this concept, organisers narrow in on health issues in the workplace. The day is intended as a kick-off event for a new and healthier approach. Emphasis is given to diet, exercise and the physical setup of the workplace. Through exercises in the health centre, participants are encouraged to change their ways and lead a healthier working life resulting in more energy, higher productivity and less illness. Process Before the event, a consultant from the conference venue will help define the objectives of the meeting and their impact on the workplace.
Et seminar- eller en konferanse på Skagen Strand er noe helt spesielt. Ikke minst i kraft av den vakre naturen som ligger rett utenfor døren.
365 dager i året står Arena Nords dedikerte stab parat til å arrangere 360 graders arrangementer for deg.

I finally was able to load PNG with transparency,
tomorrow I should begin adding it to FreePV,
since I just did some test in a small program
I did with freepv, I uploaded it to the repository
Pablo, in case that you want check it.
(I have to expand Image class)
About PNG, this is the first time I work with RGBA
textures in OpenGL, and I found that you most
take care of the order in which the elements are
drawn, so the closer elements to the camera
should be the last ones to be drawn...
I read about quaternions and while I was reading
I found a reference that says Turkowski... it was
a reference to a Ken's article about normal rotation
or something like that, I also read about gimbal lock.
I just added my early parser to freepv, for the moment
it just looks for the default scene and prints on the display
the id of the current scene. I began to do the setup of
the camera... but I didn't commit it... I should commit
this tomorrow.
I didn't advanced a lot, probably I spent to much time trying
to find why I couldn't texture a simple quad,
then I realized it was a silly mistake... I should use glGetError more
often. I would like to avoid this kind of delays.
By the way, I switched from mini-xml to libxml2 after some
frustrations in doing something as simple as navigating
the tree and to get strange values from the attributes, libxml2
has not this kind of problems.
The meeting was very useful to see some needs, specially
Ken helped us to identify some serious problems and to
define a better idea about how the hotspots should be handled
inside freepv. I still have to make a more serious description about them.
Also thanks Pablo, you already know you are essential for this project.
And please don't forget about the info for the transformations
and quaternions, that you told me, you were going to send me.
Thanks Yuval, you have been a great mentor...
Have a nice weekend,
Leon Moctezuma

Central location for museums
Large rooms with comfortable beds; very quiet with windows closed despite being on a busy street. Breakfast costs 21 euros,but a grocery and coffee shops are nearby. I cannot understand why they could not give us more than one packet of instant
coffee daily,despite several requests! The location is perfect for walking to Museum Island,the Tiergarden, and the Potsdamer Platz,or for catching a U-bahn.
Be careful not to confuse this hotel(NH Berlin Mitte) with the Novotel Berlin Mitte,which is only a few blocks away on Leipzinger Strasse,since they have similar names.
just what we were looking for
couldn't have made a better selection. Location is perfect, around the corner from a U-Bahn station, in walkable distance to the Brandenburg gate and many other sights, and lots of cafes and a grocery store within a few hundred feet. On top of it
the room was very quiet despite being on the street side.
Weekend in July
Excellent situation and staff were very helpful. Good points were the mini tourist info office in reception, the small gym and the very quiet room, perfect location and also a few meters from banks, supermarket and bakers/cafe. Slight niggles: the
coffee etc. in the room appeared to be rationed but I suspect this was the case with many hotels as the local supermarket sold the tiny sachets of coffee and milk you find in hotel rooms. Free Wifi in the rooms would have been nice. The furnishings were a little dark, but probably chosen by a man and the dark laminate flooring is never going to look clean (though it was). Not a room for romance but ok for a business stay or a weekend tourist. Overall I'd stay there again at the right price.
If you like chocolate try Fassbender & Rausch, 60 Charlottenstrasse. Chocaholics dream.
Breakfast cost
We thought the cost of breakfast was exhorbitant gut found the location very good
week end
Perfect location in the middle of the town, easy to find and nearly at underground or bus
Excellent Hotel Near Checkpoint Charlie
The hotel is modern and well kept. The staff was extremely helpful. Everyone that works at the desk speaks English. They addressed my questions immediately. The room itself has a modern design. This included the lighting and the bathroom.
They have a techique for saving electricity, by having the lights in the room activated when you insert your card key in a slot, which is located inside the room and next to the entrance. When you leave, then you remove the card key and all the lights go out. This way you don't forget to turn out the lights and you don't have to go from light switch to light switch turning each one out. If you ask for double beds, then you may find two beds pushed together. We just pushed them apart and put the end tables between them. The staff had no problem with that.
Checkpoint Charlie and the Checkpoint Charlie Museum is a few blocks from the hotel. You can also catch tour buses, in front of the museum. The tour buses make stops at 16 different tourist locations, every fifteen minutes. They stop at such places as the Brandenburg Gate and Museums Island. Do the tour one day to get oriented and after that use the subway, which is right around the corner from the hotel. The subway is very easy to use. There are excellent restaurants near the hotel. Also, there are a lot of coffee shops nearby. Remember to carry cash, because we found that even some upscale restaurants only take cash.
5 nights in Berlin
Spent 5 days in downtown Berlin here. It's a nice upscale business hotel, clean and quiet rooms, with a great location - very close to most of the key attractions.
Only complaints were that breakfast was outrageous at 21 euro/person and no free
wireless. They do have wired access in the room, which is great is you have a laptop, but not so great if you don't.
Amici restaurant for breakfast on Markgrafenstrasse & Jagerstrasse 4 blocks away. Excellent breakfast.
Front desk staff were great and i loved it when I was told that my German was good. Very personable staff.
The rooms were nice and clean and perfect with a small balcony. I travel a lot around the world and i'm picky about where i sleep. I would
definitely come back here. Location is fantastic, walking distance to everything.
Starbucks around the corner if you really need it..
Only bad thing is that it's rare to find 2 separate beds in a hotel room in Germany. So 2 adults had to share one double bed.
NH Berlin-Mitte
Many Berlin attractions can be seen within a short walk: Checkpoint Charlie (5 minutes), Potsdammer Platz and shopping arcade (8-10 minutes). A little bit further walk goes past Brandenburg Gate and the Reichstag (15 minutes) and then walking on around the canal (additional 10 minutes) finds some of the canal boat sightseeing tours and the 5-story main train station.
very nice hi-teck achitecture
I was there for visiting and was a very good visite.
the hi-teck achitectures.

South Dakota School of Mines & Technology
— Science and Engineering since 1885 —
Doug Aldrich
SD Mines Alumnus (BS ChE62, MS ChE68, PhD Humane Letters (Hon) 2001)
Dow Corning Corporation, Midland, Michigan
Technical communications are both necessary and complex. They are necessary in that ideas and inventions bring trial applications and commercial successes, which (in turn) spawn new and greater needs. People communications are inherent in every step of this process, and the interactions required for R&D, production, sales, and engineering are complex. To be effective requires planning and practice in communications, with results that are both interesting and frustrating.
In general, English and Tech. Comm. provide the basics. Your job experiences and "seasoning" help you to apply those basics to situations that confront you in industry. Feedback from your leader is also important. It is essential to continue learning new approaches and techniques in writing, presenting, discussing, and listening. When you leave the classroom and go to industry, you are a raw material, not a finished product.
What interdisciplinary studies classes, other than Tech. Comm., do you recommend for students wishing to increase their communications skills? Any course which requires writing for interpretation is useful. This could be literature, logic, history, or social studies. A foreign language is always good for personal growth, but the international language of business and technology is English. Learning to express yourself with a good vocabulary and proper semantics enhances your ability to communicate. Reading to "broaden your horizons" is an essential activity to make your output more interesting, particularly in our global world.
Does Tech. Comm. provide enough preparation for writing and speaking in an industrial setting? It is much better now than it was in the 1960s mainly because the course has been altered to bring it up-to-date with the current needs of students and industry. Continued change in the course content is always required, as new demands are put upon the students when they go to work. (These can be communicated by alumni and co-op or summer students to the professors.) We need to continue this evolution, particularly with the integration of oral and written skills. New topics could include the dynamics of group decision making, coaching, conferencing, discussion leadership, and problem-solving techniques. Many dollars are spent by industry in training their people to communicate better. This expense will continue as long as time is wasted in poorly organized meetings, inadequate presentations, and unclear discussions or reports. There is never enough college preparation, but Tech. Comm. is an excellent start.
How do you feel about your own preparation of the types of communications skills that you are now using in your job? For written communications, I had excellent preparation from high school English and college technical writing. I believe that Tech. Comm. is a much improved program over the one of my vintage. There was little emphasis on oral communications when I was here, except in extra-curricular activities (forensics and seminars). I have learned much on the job.
Should technical writing and communication skills be introduced earlier in the education system, that is, at the high school level rather than at the college level? Fundamental skills should continue to be taught in grade school and high school, but more rigorously. College should be emphasizing communications in every facet of the coursework taken. The key is a healthy implementation of the programs that will make the student an outstanding communicator as well as technical person. That implementation is often hard to achieve within a reasonable time-frame, at an acceptable cost, and with existing demands on professors. There are many people at SD Mines who are concerned with improving the communications content of their courses.
What are some of the communication skills that employers are looking for in prospective employees? How does your company look for these skills when interviewing for engineering jobs? Recruiters look for people who can organize their thoughts, express them precisely, and know when to expand or to stop. We want employees who understand that writing for "history" is different than writing for "this month," and know how to effectively interact in oral presentations. (Global communications are introducing new challenges too.) To assess prospective employees is often difficult; I use the interview (oral) and reference checks (written) to do so.
What is expected from a first-year engineer in terms of communication? How often will I be required to do a technical report? The first-year engineer may be expected to prepare monthly reports, spreadsheets, graphics, memos which outline problems and recommend solutions, laboratory reports and notebooks, and a major R&D or engineering report each year. Companies have various philosophies; some start you out slowly, while others bring you "on-stream" quickly. Sooner than you think, however, you will be required to give presentations, interact on the telephone, have one-on-one conferences, and prepare brief reports as requested by your supervisor. Of course, computers are there to stay, and they are a key tool for the above.
How much technical writing does an industrial engineer do? This depends on three factors: job level, experience and responsibility, and technical/supervisory roles. If a person is not technically writing, he/she will be technically speaking. As a job becomes less technical, communications will shift from written to oral. As a person becomes more experienced, or progresses up the ladder, more oral communications will be expected. The challenge is how well people can integrate and blend the skills needed for written and oral communications to do the total job. This is probably 70-90 percent of a person's industrial life.
Do you find yourself sticking to a strict outline and layout for your technical writing forms (memorandums and reports)? We use a standard format for our formal R&D reports; memos and letters have open format. The question should be "What format is effective to achieve the purpose for the intended audience?" All of these are used in e-mail, which is rapidly supplanting hard copy communications.
In preparing a report for management, should a person use technical jargon or keep it in layman terms? To begin your report, it is absolutely essential to analyze your purpose, target audience, the need of timeliness, and format. As communications go up the chain-of-command, details should decrease and technical jargon should be reduced. Management does not need to know all of the details; they need to know only what the details mean. Many managers are technical in background, but for those who aren't, written (as well as oral) communications should use simplicity and brevity. If the audience has a mixed background, use an appendix to contain extensive technical details.
How much time on the job do you spend writing reports? You should understand that I am a management person with a department responsibility. About 20% of my time is involved in written communications: memos, e-mail, preparing presentations or special reports. Around 50-60% is spent in oral communications, conferences or one-on-one discussions. I do not write extensive reports, which I would do if my position were technical.
How many technical writers are employed by the average chemical company; what does their job involve; and what is their usual educational background? Technical writers are sometimes employed to prepare data sheets, brochures, and manuals. Backgrounds are quite varied, they can be journalism, marketing, or chemistry. I have no idea how many are employed by an average company.
How valuable are telephone conversations as a form of communication with clients? The telephone is a highly underrated device of communication. Telephones can be used for sales calls, problem-solving nationally and globally, and discussions in teleconference calls. It's worthwhile to learn good telephone skills. The dollars you can save by solving a customer's problem over the telephone (versus visiting the plant) are overwhelming
What part of technical communications do you use most in industry (speech or writing)? Both! The blend may be 80/20 in one job or 30/70 in another. People always want to pin down which is more important, more useful, and the one which they should study. I would ask the question, "Which is more important; your right leg or your left one?" Both of them get you where you want to be; they have to go together in a rhythm; and neither one can be ignored or abandoned. This is analogous to oral versus written communications>
Do you use much of the knowledge you obtained in school? In your first five years of industry, you use many of the fundamentals that you've learned in school, but you apply them to new situations. Gradually, you will learn more and more about your company's technologies, and move up the ladder into either technical or leadership responsibilities. Then you will find growing demands for new skills. In five years, your knowledge may become obsolete, so you must remain current in your field. But there's no question what when you start working, you draw heavily on what you've learned in the classroom.
How many trips do you make to speak such as this one? This talk was a part of my interviewing trip to the School of Mines. I feel strongly about the role of technical communications in industry and in the classroom. It was nice to be invited and provided with so many questions. You might also view the 2000 videotape of the Dow communications series, in which four alumni talk about the need for and practice of this science/art in our companies and careers>
What do you feel is your most important vital communication skill? Why? Currently, my more important skill is oral communication; that's what is required most in my particular job. If I had continued as a technologist, my writing skills would have been more important to cultivate. Both skill sets have been developed intensively, since they are an integral part of my career. Both types of communications are important as my position has expanded into international activities.
What can be done about the poor spelling and grammar of engineers? There are remedial courses available if the basics are poor, and seminars or workshops can fine-tune skills. Coaching by a supervisor is important; I personally have no hesitation in asking someone to do something over. There is incentive to improve if writing and spelling habits cause poor performance and less pay. Once you learn the basics, polishing skills and developing style will come only with practice, practice, practice. . .
What faults in people's communication skills do you notice as an executive? In written reports or memos, faults are usually in organization, too many details, mechanics, semantics, and clear purpose. In oral communications, problems usually arise from not understanding the principles of speaking, preparation, and visual aids. Both skills are required in today's industrial meetings, an environment many students are not prepared to cope with.
What is the greatest pitfall in communication systems in industry? Poor communications may lead to wrong or costly decisions, but even more critical is the loss of people's time and productivity. This is becoming even more evident with globalization, which demands excellence in communications across many boundaries: language, culture, behaviors, time, laws, and competition
How has technical communications helped you on the job? Immeasurably! I have used the principles of communications to coordinate efforts of R&D, manufacturing, and marketing. I have used them to define the problem, not the symptoms, and to ensure that the proper actions are taken. I have used technical communications to obtain decisions that I favor by clearly presenting what I want, the costs of doing it, and the benefits to be achieved. Finally, I have worked with my people to build communications skills and improve my department's performance
Who makes it to the top the fastest: The leader, manager or gamesman? You read the same book I did! All of those types can make it to the top, provided they perform and contribute to the company's goals and successes. Anyone who can get good results, whether on the technical or leadership ladder, will advance to the height of his/her competence (and hopefully not beyond). Making it to the top involves preparation, success, luck, image, communications, right decisions, risk-taking, politics, hard work, vision, innovation, and the list goes on.
What was the most important part of your college life? I believe it was the balanced education that I received at the School of Mines. Part of this came from the interest and involvement of my professors in me as a person, my classwork, and my growth/maturing as an individual. When this attention was coupled with the school's philosophy of hard work and persistent thinking, and then blended with extracurricular activities and the people interactions that went with them, you have my answer. I am personally amazed that our small school delivers such quality graduates who achieve so much during their professional careers. There is no question that SD Mines made much of what I am today, and my years on campus were indeed significant forces in preparing me for life. I am most grateful for that.

NBA Rumors: New Orleans Hornets Acquire Ryan Anderson. Does He Fit?
The New Orleans Hornets and Orlando Magic have apparently agreed on a trade, shipping Gustavo Ayon to Orlando, while the Hornets will receive the reigning Most Improved Player, Ryan Anderson.
The Hornets will also sign him to a deal for 4 years and around 36 million dollars. Anderson is yet another fantastic young player that will be apart of the Hornets' excellent young core.
Anderson gives the Hornets another starting caliber big man, who will almost certainly start at power forward. He provides much needed scoring, rebounding and shooting and at only 25, will join No.1 overall pick in the 2012 NBA Draft in power forward/center Anthony Davis and shooting guards in Eric Gordon and Austin Rivers as a key part of the team's foundation.
All in all, this is a fantastic trade for the Hornets, but there is one problem with the trade. Davis has the build and game of a power forward and although he can switch to center and would be more than capable there, it seems foolish to risk the extra beating that will come with playing center on a daily basis. Anderson is in no way a center, so the starting duties will fall to Davis, which may limit his growth.
If this becomes a problem the Hornets can simply move Anderson to the bench and put Davis back at power forward, but this will be something to look at as the season progresses.
Davis has all of the talent in the world, but it is unsure if he has the size and strength to play down low with the likes of Howard, Chandler, Bogut, Noah, Bynum and all of the other centers in the NBA and it seems risky to put him in that position, as he is the future of this franchise.
The positional concerns are valid, but based on the money given to Anderson and what they gave up to acquire him, this is an absolute steal for the team.
After a fantastic draft, the Hornets continue to build towards contention and although the playoffs are still probably at least a year off for New Orleans, they are much better today than they were yesterday. Dell Demps has got to be the early favorite for the league's top executive. This is another huge step towards contention for the Hornets.

TMS has been a "fair" experience for my child with both highs and lows. As for the good there are decent student/teacher ratios and most of the teachers seem to take a genuine interest in the development of their students. The new principal has brought an energy to the position that was greatly needed. As for the not so good there are teachers particularly tenured ones who are more interested in "checking off the boxes" than striving to provide a quality learning experience for the kids. Neither the principal nor the school department administration appear to be willing to call these teachers to task. There is also a serious lack of parental involvement. Overall while needing improvement it beats paying for private school!

Both effective and tasty??

I've tried quite a few now, many of them disappointing, especially the bagged versions. I'm starting to think loose leaf is the way to go to get the most out of them. My favourite so far is from a brand called Nude Tea Australia (http://www.nudetea.com.au/product/weight-loss-tea/) they only sell organic loose leaf and each one also comes with a bag of powdered herb concentrate so the tea is super gutsy after it's brewed. I love the ginger/cinnamon flavours, the tea keeps my toilet visits regular and has the bonus of fresh breath all day too haha. So far I've lost about 5 kilos in the last 2 months. Slimming Tea had some good ones too, but they were bagged and I feel lost a little of their potency, although they did taste great. There's some other interesting combo's out there, but a lot of companies seem to find being effective yet still tasting nice hard to balance.

Let me know any others anyone has had success with as I'm keen to give them a try.Dave Bryanthttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-516171423954184083.post-25640550872341437292015-07-03T11:06:08.833-04:002015-07-03T11:06:08.833-04:00Geoff, from the later news report, it seems that t...Geoff, from the later news report, it seems that they somehow survived the crisis and are doing well now.

Reading this makes me wonder, perhaps the first 'rinse' is more useful when showing tea to others, such that you 'put your best foot forward' by not having your guests drink the rinse.

I like the comment about not needing to do a rinse for strip-type dan cong oolongs; my guess is this is because they are not as tightly rolled as many oolongs are, and so do not need to open any before brewing?SimpliciTEAhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-516171423954184083.post-17630803177570065982014-06-10T15:50:44.805-04:002014-06-10T15:50:44.805-04:00Great article!

I am with you all the way on the joys of writing and how reading others writing about tea helps you feel somewhat like you are enjoying the tea with them. And, I really like the one line from the Confucianism doctrines you shared.SimpliciTEAhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-516171423954184083.post-39133491945784046042014-06-10T14:05:11.878-04:002014-06-10T14:05:11.878-04:00I love this post, especially how you describe that...I love this post, especially how you describe that wonderful things (like Yunnan read tea) can come out of horrible times.SimpliciTEAhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-516171423954184083.post-23392096535201317212014-06-01T12:33:53.359-04:002014-06-01T12:33:53.359-04:00Hi Gingko, I had a couple of tea tastings myself ...
Hi Gingko,

I had a couple of tea tastings myself recently, so it was good for me to read about your experience and compare/contrast it with my own. And, such beautiful tea-ware!

I completely agree with this: "Tea always tastes better when you share it with friends! " I don't know about you but I am finding as much as I love how Tea engages all of our senses, Tea's true gift is in it's ability to bring others together to share fellowship.SimpliciTEAhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-516171423954184083.post-71651818085193326352014-06-01T11:52:45.850-04:002014-06-01T11:52:45.850-04:00You have lots of creative ideas of what vessel to ...You have lots of creative ideas of what vessel to drink tea in; I love the wineglass idea. I will have to try it sometime. You always do such a great job with your pictures (I notice how each picture of the vessels is taken on a different surface, i.e. bamboo, wood, stone), and you must have quite a collection of tea-ware!SimpliciTEAhttp://email@example.com
