However, leadership research has failed to deeply explore how leaders, followers and contexts combine to produce organizational outcomes. Aiming to contribute to the study of these overlooked questions, we developed four studies. The first study predicted that job autonomy buffers the relationship between abusive supervision, psychosomatic symptoms and deviance. The second study suggests that task characteristics moderate the association between abusive supervision, distributive justice and job satisfaction. The third study proposes that proactive personality acts as a leadership substitute in the relationship between ethical leadership, emotions and OCBs. Our fourth study showed that followership schema and top management openness determine the LMX quality, with consequences for employee behaviors. Our findings suggest that follower characteristics, organizational practices and contextual variables constitute important boundary conditions for the impact of leader behaviors on employee outcomes. 2016-07-01T00:00:00Z Firing and training costs and labour market segmentation Serra, Sara http://hdl.handle.net/10362/17202 2016-10-03T12:24:18Z 2016-04-01T00:00:00Z Título: Firing and training costs and labour market segmentation Autor: Serra, Sara Resumo: This dissertation consists of three essays on the labour market impact of firing and training costs. The modelling framework resorts to the search and matching literature. The first chapter introduces firing costs, both liner and non-linear, in a new Keynesian model, analysing business cycle effects for different wage rigidity degrees. The second chapter adds training costs in a model of a segmented labour market, accessing the interaction between these two features and the skill composition of the labour force. Finally, the third chapter analyses empirically some of the issues raised in the second chapter. 2016-04-01T00:00:00Z The role of individual ability and structural embeddedness on entrepreneurial success Pimentel, Bernardo M. http://hdl.handle.net/10362/16013 2016-07-04T09:02:36Z 2015-02-04T00:00:00Z Título: The role of individual ability and structural embeddedness on entrepreneurial success Autor: Pimentel, Bernardo M. Resumo: In the present thesis I analyse the roles of individual ability and structural embeddedness on entrepreneurial success. The results retrieved from a matched employer-employee longitudinal data set show prior worker productivities and environmental embeddedness to have a persistent positive impact on the size and growth rates of new firms. What is more, embeddedness facilitates the impact of ability on start-up performance with outsiders of comparable abilities starting smaller and slower growing firms. Those in higher ability categories are more likely to transfer and also, albeit to a lesser extent, close their ventures, an effect attributed to the higher opportunity costs associated with the group. Firms managed by embedded agents enjoy longer longevities and have better chances of finding a new owner after the departure of the previous one. Finally, higher ability types show evidence of specialisation in serial entrepreneurship. 2015-02-04T00:00:00Z Essays on bounded rationality: Individual decision and strategic interaction Chaves, Pedro Maria Bonneville http://hdl.handle.net/10362/16012 2016-07-01T14:38:15Z 2015-06-30T00:00:00Z Título: Essays on bounded rationality: Individual decision and strategic interaction Autor: Chaves, Pedro Maria Bonneville Resumo: Economics is a social science which, therefore, focuses on people and on the decisions they make, be it in an individual context, or in group situations. It studies human choices, in face of needs to be fulfilled, and a limited amount of resources to fulfill them. For a long time, there was a convergence between the normative and positive views of human behavior, in that the ideal and predicted decisions of agents in economic models were entangled in one single concept. That is, it was assumed that the best that could be done in each situation was exactly the choice that would prevail. Or, at least, that the facts that economics needed to explain could be understood in the light of models in which individual agents act as if they are able to make ideal decisions. However, in the last decades, the complexity of the environment in which economic decisions are made and the limits on the ability of agents to deal with it have been recognized, and incorporated into models of decision making in what came to be known as the bounded rationality paradigm. This was triggered by the incapacity of the unboundedly rationality paradigm to explain observed phenomena and behavior. This thesis contributes to the literature in three different ways. Chapter 1 is a survey on bounded rationality, which gathers and organizes the contributions to the field since Simon (1955) first recognized the necessity to account for the limits on human rationality. The focus of the survey is on theoretical work rather than the experimental literature which presents evidence of actual behavior that differs from what classic rationality predicts. The general framework is as follows. Given a set of exogenous variables, the economic agent needs to choose an element from the choice set that is avail- able to him, in order to optimize the expected value of an objective function (assuming his preferences are representable by such a function). If this problem is too complex for the agent to deal with, one or more of its elements is simplified. Each bounded rationality theory is categorized according to the most relevant element it simplifes. Chapter 2 proposes a novel theory of bounded rationality. Much in the same fashion as Conlisk (1980) and Gabaix (2014), we assume that thinking is costly in the sense that agents have to pay a cost for performing mental operations. In our model, if they choose not to think, such cost is avoided, but they are left with a single alternative, labeled the default choice. We exemplify the idea with a very simple model of consumer choice and identify the concept of isofin curves, i.e., sets of default choices which generate the same utility net of thinking cost. Then, we apply the idea to a linear symmetric Cournot duopoly, in which the default choice can be interpreted as the most natural quantity to be produced in the market. We find that, as the thinking cost increases, the number of firms thinking in equilibrium decreases. More interestingly, for intermediate levels of thinking cost, an equilibrium in which one of the firms chooses the default quantity and the other best responds to it exists, generating asymmetric choices in a symmetric model. Our model is able to explain well-known regularities identified in the Cournot experimental literature, such as the adoption of different strategies by players (Huck et al. , 1999), the inter temporal rigidity of choices (Bosch-Dom enech & Vriend, 2003) and the dispersion of quantities in the context of di cult decision making (Bosch-Dom enech & Vriend, 2003). Chapter 3 applies a model of bounded rationality in a game-theoretic set- ting to the well-known turnout paradox in large elections, pivotal probabilities vanish very quickly and no one should vote, in sharp contrast with the ob- served high levels of turnout. Inspired by the concept of rhizomatic thinking, introduced by Bravo-Furtado & Côrte-Real (2009a), we assume that each per- son is self-delusional in the sense that, when making a decision, she believes that a fraction of the people who support the same party decides alike, even if no communication is established between them. This kind of belief simplifies the decision of the agent, as it reduces the number of players he believes to be playing against { it is thus a bounded rationality approach. Studying a two-party first-past-the-post election with a continuum of self-delusional agents, we show that the turnout rate is positive in all the possible equilibria, and that it can be as high as 100%. The game displays multiple equilibria, at least one of which entails a victory of the bigger party. The smaller one may also win, provided its relative size is not too small; more self-delusional voters in the minority party decreases this threshold size. Our model is able to explain some empirical facts, such as the possibility that a close election leads to low turnout (Geys, 2006), a lower margin of victory when turnout is higher (Geys, 2006) and high turnout rates favoring the minority (Bernhagen & Marsh, 1997). 2015-06-30T00:00:00Z

Ellen Degeneres has a Porsche 911 Turbo, and you don't*. Ellen, the quirky daytime TV host and former sitcom star and stand-up comic, was spotted hopping in her 911 Turbo at a restaurant in LA and looks very put off by the photographer. Maybe because you can see her every day on TV so a paparazzi picture is a bit excessive.
Ellen also has a Porche 911 Targa 4, which is a glass roof convertible model available in the 997 generation 911s. If I had Ellen's money, I would definitely have a glass roof 911 Targa in addition to the obligatory Turbo that I would buy the exact moment the lottery money was deposited into my account. The 911 Targa has a dealership rear plate, so it could be a loaner. Let's review. Ellen drives several Porsches, including a 911 Turbo and is married to Portia De Rossi (check the video below for a better joke about that than I can make). If you're a straight man you're either extremely jealous or your life has turned out extremely well.
Here's Ellen talking about how much she loves driving and loves driving fast, so it sounds like the Porsche gets to stretch its legs a bit.
Fun fact: Ellen actually did the now hackneyed airline food joke way back on her 1996 stand-up CD Taste This and her version is actually funny.
*If you do, in fact, have Porsche 911 Turbo, I apologize for the mistake. Also can I drive it?

California's Asian Spring
Racial preferences punish part of the liberal majority.
Democrats claim to be a multi-ethnic "coalition of the ascendant," but identity politics has inherent contradictions. Witness the victory this week by three liberal Asian-American lawmakers in blocking Sacramento's Democratic supermajority from trying to overturn California's ban on racial preferences (Prop. 209).
In January, Democratic state senators voted unanimously with little debate to place a constitutional amendment gutting Prop. 209 on the November ballot, which requires a two-thirds vote of both legislative chambers. The Assembly was poised to consider the amendment this month when Democratic Senators Ted Lieu of Torrance, Carol Liu of Pasadena and Leland Yee of San Francisco objected.
"In the past few weeks, we have heard from thousands of people throughout California voicing their concerns about the potential impacts," the senators wrote Assembly Speaker John Perez last week, adding that "as lifelong advocates for the Asian-American and other communities, we would never support a policy that we believed would negatively impact our children."
Their concerns are well founded. In 1996, California voters approved Prop. 209 to block public institutions, notably state universities, from discriminating by race. Asian-American freshman enrollment at the University of California's 10-flagship universities has since climbed to 40.2% from 36.6% and to 47% from 39.7% at Berkeley.
Admissions rates for Asian Americans relative to other minority groups have also soared. In 1996, Asian Americans were about two-thirds as likely to get into Berkeley as blacks or Hispanics, not controlling for other factors. Today Asian Americans stand a 50% better shot of being admitted. Prop. 209's ban on racial preferences has helped Asian Americans by forcing admissions officers to focus on such academic qualifications as high-school grades and test scores.
Liberals argue that race-based admissions are necessary to increase black and Hispanic representation, but minority enrollment has increased since 1996 at the University of California. Hispanics now make up 28.1% of the UC system's freshman class, up from 13.8% in 1996, while black enrollment has ticked up to 4% from 3.8%.
Prop. 209 has shown that there are other ways to increase black and Hispanic enrollment than racial preferences. For instance, the University of California grants the top 9% of students in each high-school class automatic admission, though not necessarily to their first school choice. Blacks and Hispanics are now more likely to enroll at lower-tier campuses, but they graduate at higher rates.
Democratic leaders say they are merely delaying the referendum for discussion, but they know that pushing for Prop. 209's repeal risks alienating the growing block of Asian-American voters in the same way Republicans have alienated Hispanics. Asian Americans were 11% of California voters in 2012 compared to 6% in 2008, and nearly 80% of them voted for President Obama.
Prop. 209 has been upheld by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and the California Supreme Court. But the U.S. Supreme Court will soon rule on Michigan's Prop. 2, which is based on Prop. 209, and liberals hope this will provide grounds for a new lawsuit to overturn California's ban on racial preferences. Note to Asian Americans: Democratic Attorney General Kamala Harris and Governor Jerry Brown have both argued for its repeal.

Thinking Outside the Beltology
Belts can be the bane of your existence or a signature style element of your daily wardrobe. It all comes down to fit and too often that fit is exactly, just not right. Either too loose or too tight, the traditional belt design based on pre-punched holes can be quite limiting. Enter Beltology. These clever … [Read more…]

Stainless Steel Juicer
Product is terrible. Broke after one use. I had a juicer experienced chef friend look at it. We recleaned it, put it back together, looked at manual, etc. He finally determined that the motor was disengaging. I needed one so I had to go out and buy another one at Walmart. I have already experienced the hassle of returning things to Overstock, so I am going to eat the money I paid for the juicer I purchased from Overstock and remind myself to NEVER get small appliances from you again.

Funny how your avatar is replying to frog's avatar. ;-)
Personally, I think turkey is too dry (except the dark meat) and isn't really all that tasty. I'd rather have pork, beef, shrimp, or even fish than turkey. :-s
try frying it , so moist!
As a former turkey grower and current turkey cook, I can assure you that if you think turkey is dry, you have never eaten it properly cooked. Not saying you have to like it, that is personal taste but turkey is not dry!
OMG! One hour per pound would give you turkey chips! Use a thermometer and stop cooking at about 165 degrees at the thickest part of thigh. Let it rest, it will finish up cooking and your bird will be perfect and NOT dry
Was she talking about smoking the turkey one hour per pound maybe?

Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful recipe Napoleaon Dynamite. I loved it. The flavor was outstanding. The honey really makes the cardamom and cinnamon shine in this lovely iced coffee.

Big downgrade from the 10D, first plastic body, second NO custom menus. This camera is aimed squarely at the PS crowd. The good news out of this is they are releasing a 100~400 F4 L with IS, assuming it's better optically than the current 100~400 this lens should sell like hot cakes!!!
It looks like Nikon/Minolta/Sony are in BIG trouble with this new camera.
The camera has a rotation sensor which allows automatic rotation of images. This is a very important feature lacking on other far more expensive cameras. I'm unsure if the images themselves are rotated, which saves a lot of time in post-production, or if just the previews are rotated, which is a lot less useful but still far better than the Nikon cameras I use like the D1H. I can manually rotate images inside my Canon A70, but this only applies to the preview. With the A70 I still have to rotate in post.
I purchased an EOS 300D in Bath, 2003, their first EOS product as I had been stolen my professional NIKON in Liverpool. It isn't too bad and using Photoshop you are able to improve pictures' quality. I am a freelance journalist/photograph.
Now, when I asked CANON for a copy of the lost original Firmware/software they refuse to deliver one. "No software is available" they said. My God! CANON forget old customers! Has any one a copy of original CD for an EOS 300D? PLEASE....I pay for that copy.

WILMINGTON, Mass. -- The Boston Bruins are back on the practice ice this morning at Ristuccia Arena.
In case you spent the weekend recuperating from Christmas, here are a few notes to bring you up to speed on the state of the team:
* Loui Eriksson skated alone prior to the team's practice Monday. He has missed the past 10 games with a concussion suffered Dec. 7. This marks the first time he's skated since the injury.
* After missing Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Ottawa Senators with an undisclosed injury, Bruins captain Zdeno Chara is back on the ice this morning.
* Defenseman Dougie Hamilton, who has missed the past nine games with a lower-body injury, is practicing with the team for the first time Dec. 8.
* The Bruins received some devastating news on Saturday when it was announced that veteran defenseman Dennis Seidenberg will miss the remainder of the 2013-2014 season with a MCL/ACL tear in his right knee. He suffered the injury in Boston's 5-0 win over the Senators on Friday night at TD Garden.
* Prior to Monday's practice, the team officially recalled defenseman Kevan Miller from Providence of the AHL.
* On Sunday, a day off for the Bruins, forward Nick Johnson and defensemen Zach Trotman and David Warsofsky were assigned to Providence.
* Bruins forward Carl Soderberg suffered a concussion last Friday and did not make the trip to Ottawa for Saturday's game. He is not on the ice this morning.

Pakistan: Musharraf Tells Britain To Get Its Own House In Order
http://gdb.rferl.org/0CE12806-2370-4536-990D-8CF65031C4B8_w203.jpg --> http://gdb.rferl.org/0CE12806-2370-4536-990D-8CF65031C4B8_mw800_mh600.jpg Students studying at a madrasah in Islamabad The president of Pakistan, General Pervez Musharraf, has hit back at critics who claim the 7 July London bombers drew their ideological inspiration from extremists and religious schools, or madrasahs, in Pakistan. At least two of the bombers had visited Pakistan in the months before the attacks. In the aftermath of the deadly attacks, British Prime Minister Tony Blair called on Pakistan to crack down on extremist madrasahs. But Musharraf said that Britain would be best to put its own house in order before criticizing others. He also said he is surprised that Britain has not done more to crack down on its own radical Islamic clerics.
But Pakistan's president evidently feels it is time to set the record straight. He has had enough, it seems, of being told that Pakistan is a seedbed for Islamic fundamentalism and indirectly responsible for the London bombings, which killed more than 50 people.
This week, he attempted to turn the tables on his critics -- in particular, those who have sought to establish a link between the bombers and religious schools in Pakistan. The bombers, he reminded his listeners, were British born and bred.
Abbas Nasser, a specialist on Southern Asia at the BBC's World Service, said that Musharraf is irritated by the suggestion that the roots of Britain's current problem with terrorism are in Pakistan rather than Britain itself.
"I think what he was reacting to was the fact that both Tony Blair and Jack Straw, the foreign secretary, have expressed concerns about the role of the Pakistani madrasahs," Abbas said. "Now, yes, Pakistan has been a hotbed of Islamic militants. Madrasahs -- or religious schools, seminaries -- do exist in large numbers, with some foreign funded and some locally funded. But there's very little evidence of militants training in madrasahs. This happens outside the formal framework of madrasahs, really."
Britain, Musharraf implied, would do better to put its own house in order first before casting blame on others. And it should begin by cracking down immediately, he said, on its own extremist Muslim clerics. This means taking control of the mosques and those using them to "pollute the minds of people towards extremism and hate."
Nobody, he said, has a right to preach hatred, militancy, or aggression against anyone, whether against the government, other sects, or religions.
Musharraf is caught firmly between the proverbial rock and a hard place -- squashed uncomfortably between radical Islamists at home and the hawks in Washington. He feels he has gone out on a limb to help the West despite bitter anti-American feelings at home -- and still it criticizes him.
But there are many -- not just in the West -- who feel he has a case to answer. The British argument is not that Pakistan bred the bombers -- it self-evidently did not -- but that some of its madrasahs have become centers of high-octane Islamic extremism. Some of these religious schools, it is feared, are providing the ideological nourishment for disenchanted young Muslims around the world.
Ahmed Rashid is a journalist and author who lives in the Pakistani city of Lahore. Rashid, who has written extensively on Islamic extremism in the region, believes the problem goes deeper still.
"The real heart of it is there's a lot of cynicism and skepticism about the fact that, since 9/11, there have been several crackdowns on the extremists, but they've not been effective," Rashid said. "They've been carried out very halfheartedly. This most recent crackdown -- in which 800 people have been jailed and now 1,400 students in the madrasahs are being asked to leave the country -- are again not really tackling the problem. The real problem is tackling the extremist groups and their leaders who are still around and very active."
But does Musharraf have the will?
Ambivalence, say his critics, lies at the heart of everything he does. Pakistan's president is being asked to crack down on Islamic extremism, yet he is himself allied to a coalition of radical Islamic parties in the National Assembly. The Jamiat-i-Ulema Islam (JUI) is one of the most powerful fundamentalist parties in the Pashtun tribal belt bordering Afghanistan. For years, it worked closely with the intelligence service and army and spawned the violent fundamentalist groups that now feed Al-Qaeda.
"These extremist groups have been involved for many, many years in a very proactive policy, both in Afghanistan and Kashmir," Rashid said. "And they remain a very important element in that foreign-policy agenda. And I think the military is very loathe to try to get rid of them at this stage or to break up their infrastructure in case they're needed again. And here we get into the area of what the military defines as national security. I don't think it is condoning extremism and fundamentalism, but it sees these groups as playing an important national security role."
It's a perception that Musharraf, whose closest allies are in the military, can be expected to share.
And the ambivalence is likely to prevail -- at least as long as instability continues in Afghanistan and Pakistan remains locked in dispute with India over Kashmir.

On Tap Today: Fall movies, getting the blues in Grafton, and a bit of Monty Python
At the movies, fall is the serious season - when the blockbusters of summer give way to more challenging, grown-up fare.
Well, most of the time.
Film critic Duane Dudek lays it all out in his fall movie preview, including a talk with screenwriter and Mequon native John Ridley, whose "12 Years a Slave" is getting Oscar buzz even before it screens this weekend at the Toronto International Film Festival.
If you're looking for movies that are a little less, um, thoughtful, there's always "Riddick," the Vin Diesel sequel that stays true to its roots by not thinking too hard.
If that's not enough to give you the blues, check out the Paramount Blues Festival in Grafton. The two-day salute to the blues - and the unlikely, amazing role that Grafton had in the history of America's music - begins at 5 p.m. today in Lime Kiln Park.
Or you can join the Knights of the Round Table for Theatre Unchained's production of "Spamalot," which begins tonight at 8.
OK, so this isn't the version of the song that's in the play, but it's a great, and silly, and Monty Pythony way to start your Friday. So:
- On Tap Today: Summer staples, Brewfest, Harry Potter
- On Tap Today: County fairs, outdoor music and the Brewers
- On Tap Today: A river, a lake and a complicated plot
- On Tap Today: Vans Warped Tour and Halsey at the Rave
- On Tap Today: Music, tap takeovers and an adult ice cream social
- On Tap Today: A county fair, music by the river and a haunted walk

Just got some fluffy mail in today including 6 flats! Haven't ever used these before. I've got tons of covers, snappis, and pins.
Anyone here use flats?
Any tips or helpful websites for me?
Just got some fluffy mail in today including 6 flats! Haven't ever used these before. I've got tons of covers, snappis, and pins.
Hehe. I have some but haven't ever used them. They're my JIK diapers and I've never made it that deep into my stash!
Real helpful Erin! lol
I've heard you fold them .....
Oooh, Wendy had a good site.
I haven't used them but I'm interested in hearing how you like them!
I use flats all the time, they are my night time nappies.
http://www.realnappiness.co.uk/acatalog/Folding_Flat_Nappies.html This one has some nappy folds, I use a kite fold on Ronin, I was using a chinese fold which is great for boys, but I wasn't able to snappy it up well and I don't want to use pins (I'm scared of jabbing him or me)
Flats at night?! Interesting! I don't know why but my brain is resisting that idea. lol.
Thanks for the link.
Wendy - do you double diaper at night or something? I've been doing one L prefold double stuffed with a S and a stay-dry liner. Most nights it works but if she nurses all night she usually requires a change around 4am. Any attempt to switch to something more sophisticated results in disaster.
Nope just one nappy with pilchers over them. The terry flats I have just keep soaking it up, they are just like a towel. In the morning he is pretty wet and so is the nappy, but it works. I had him in a pocket one night last week and he soaked it so much we got a leak, never had that with the flats.
Interesting! I've never seen terry flats.
Recently DS has been doing well in a pocket stuffed with 2 bamboo inserts and 1 hemp insert underneath those. Sometimes it's soaked (but no leaking), but most of the time parts of the inserts are still dry. I've thought about trying prefolds overnight, but I'm too lazy to cut out a fleece liner to keep him from feeling wet. lol.
We've used flats all day and they've done really well! I can see myself wanting to use flats when out out of the house because they'll take up less room in my purse and wet bag. It's hard CDing when you don't carry a diaper bag!
Teagan's never leaked in a prefold but she gets super fidgety if she starts feeling too wet.
Yay for flats success! How do you CD without a diaper bag?! I also have a serious over-packing disorder. I'm using the two pockets I got the other day as on-the-go diapers to cut down on the bulk in my bag.
All I have on me is my wallet, keys, cell phone, small thing of eye drops for my contacts, a onesie, small wet bag, one diaper (usually a pocket but man a flat will take up less space!), small travel wipes, disposable changing mat (somebody gave me a package of these and I reuse till dirty), and my pocket point and shoot camera. Sometimes I'll throw in my nursing cover depending on where I'll be (I'm not a big fan of Mexican men staring at DS nursing). I keep an extra diaper or two in my car where I have more wipes, a fancy mat, etc.
What else do people drag around with them?! I couldn't fill up a diaper bag if I tried! lol.

Lessons Learned for REDD+ from PES and Conservation Incentive Programs
Examples from Costa Rica, Mexico, and Ecuador
- FONAFIFO, CONAFOR, Ministry of Environment, Forest Trends, Forest Carbon Partnership Facility, Latin American and Caribbean Region of the World Bank
At the COP16 in Cancun, representatives from Costa Rica, Mexico, and Ecuador held a discussion on payments for ecosystem services (PES) and conservation incentive programs in these three countries and their relevance for national initiatives related to reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation, conservation, sustainable management of forests, and enhancement of forest carbon (REDD+). Building on the success of that preliminary discussion, Costa Rica, Mexico, and Ecuador are working with the World Bank and Forest Trends to document PES experiences and implications for their REDD+ programs and policies, and to make this experience internationally available for REDD+ stakeholders. This report forms a part of that work and describes lessons learned in five key areas:
Specifically, the report describes examples of how each of these topics has been tackled in national programs and how these experiences can inform the development of REDD+ in the three focus countries and beyond.

Clark up one in Forbes power rankings
Former prime minister Helen Clark has climbed one spot to be ranked the 22nd most powerful woman in the world, according to Forbes Magazine.
The 66-year-old, who is seeking to become United Nations secretary general later this year, is still considered to be less powerful than Oprah Winfrey (21, down from 12) on the list, calculated on money, media presence, spheres of influence and impact.
The one place gain appears to be helped by the disappearance from this year's list of entertainer Beyonce Knowles and suspended Brazilian president Dilma Rousseff.
The ranking is again headed by German chancellor Angela Merkel and US presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
Forbes describes Miss Clark, who was ranked 50th in 2011, as the most powerful woman in the United Nations, leading the UN Development Programme.
"Helen Clark uses her global bully pulpit and billions in funds to assist development and humanitarian efforts around the world," the magazine said.
She had been credited for bringing greater efficiency to her agency, is considered a front-runner for the role.
However, it also notes there are allegations her agency retaliated against one of its own employees for helping to prepare a report sharply critical of its response to the 2009 atrocities in Sri Lanka.
One of her rivals for the job, Bulgaria's Irina Bokova, is ranked 89th.
Miss Clark is the only New Zealander on the list. The only Australian on the list is mining magnate Gina Rinehart, ranked 51st.
Top 10:
1. Angela Merkel, Germany, politics
2. Hillary Clinton, US, politics
3. Janet Yellen, US, finance
4. Melinda Gates, US, philanthropy/NGO
5. Mary Barra, US, automotive
6. Christine Lagarde, France, economy
7. Sheryl Sandberg, US, technology
8. Susan Wojcicki, US, technology
9. Meg Whitman, US, technology
10. Ana Patricia Botin, Spain, finance
13. Michelle Obama, US, politics
21. Oprah Winfrey, US, entertainment
22. Helen Clark, NZ, philanthropy/NGO
29. Queen Elizabeth II, UK, politics
51. Gina Rinehart, Australia, metals and mining

text: Can anyone out there give me a cost/benefit analysis between the PSL and a Yugo M76? I'd like to have something like the Dragunov for the 8mm (7.92x57) round. The Yugo M76's are something like 2-3X the cost of a PSL, does the difference in performance warrant that? Is there anything more modern than Mausers (aside from M76's) that shoot 7.92x57? Thanks!

This is a comprehensive Patagonia highlights holiday exploring the indigo lakes, ancient woodland and snow-capped volcanoes of the lake district. Further south are the ice caps, glaciers, jagged mountains and lakes at the tip of the Andes in Chile and Argentina. This adventure includes a visit to the minty blue, cathedral-high Perito Moreno Glacier in Los Glaciares National Park, Argentina, and Torres del Paine National Park, Chile's large and well-established reserve.
While the lake district in northern Patagonia has lakeside resorts and many visitors in summer, there are little seen fairyland forests and lonely roads carving their way through a virgin landscape. The south is, in parts, a true wilderness, where just a few rough roads cut through a frost-bitten landscape of glaciers, luminous lagoons, icy pinnacles and wind-strafed steppe, Patagonia is nevertheless readily accessible to visitors.

The curvy blogger project
Marina Rinialdi films all the popular plus size bloggers for their new campaign 'The curvy blogger' project which will launching this week.
"We wanted to focus on the brands fashion credentials not just that we cater for larger-sized women, "said Mrs Lynne Webber, managing director, Marina Rinaldi. " We were after authenticity. Real bodies, real lives – women who don't view size as style hurdle".
Enter the curvy-girl blog squad. Women with more killer curves than a box set of Mad Men. Globally popular for their style expertise the group was assembled from Europe, Russia, Turkey and the US then flown to Milan for the three-day glamour shoot. Each blogger was commissioned to style their own photograph choosing everything from wardrobe to hair and make-up.
Gabi Gregg from Detroit is the 25-year-old voice behind the well-liked GabiFresh.com. The loud and humorous former journalism student rejects the notion that women should dress for "body type", preferring to create new rules for women her size.
"I'm used to expensive, designer clothes just not fitting me. When I put all these beautiful things on it literally made me cry because for once they did," she said. "It's sad that an experience which is so normal for most women is such a rarity for someone who is size 18 (and above)".
Marina Rinaldi is indeed a rare island on Planet Fashion. The brand, which is part of the Max Mara group, is one of the only high-end labels in the world that designs specifically for larger women stocking sizes from 12-28 in Australia. Championed by Hollywood's curvier stars including Melissa McCarthy, Christina Hendricks and Adele, its success lies in a commitment the same on-trend, quality tailoring that's applauded in their mainstream brands.
"To me, fashion should not have sizes and not be limited by a number in a jacket" said French blogger Stephanie Zwicky from leblogdebigbeauty.com, who also features in the campaign. "I'm not an activist, I just think all women should be given the opportunity to wear beautiful things – not just thin ones".
According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, the average Australian woman weighs 71 kilograms and has a waist measurement of 88 centimetres, making her about a size 16 in most stores. While many mass fashion brands now cater for larger sizes, contemporary Australian labels lag behind, routinely finishing at size 14 and even 12. "It's a real missed opportunity," said Penny McCarthy, fashion director, the (sydney) magazine. "There's an absolute need for quality, fashionable clothes for women with curves". Marina Rinaldi has three stores in Australia, two in Sydney and one in Melbourne, with plans for further expansion.
"I think it would be great and should be 'normal' to show a reality of different sizes in fashion magazines," said Swedish stylist Edith Dohem of stylehasnosize.com who believes the "Women Are Back" campaign only highlights the lack of diversity in advertising images. "Every women is beautiful, no matter what her size. Who knows … maybe soon."
