One Market Under God: Extreme Capitalism, Market Populism, and the End of Economic Democracy
€ 17,49
Lieferbar innert 2 Wochen
September 2001
BeschreibungIn a book that has been raising hackles far and wide, the social critic Thomas Frank skewers one of the most sacred cows of the go-go '90s: the idea that the new free-market economy is good for everyone. Frank's target is "market populism"--the widely held belief that markets are a more democratic form of organization than democratically elected governments. Refuting the idea that billionaire CEOs are looking out for the interests of the little guy, he argues that "the great euphoria of the late nineties was never as much about the return of good times as it was the giddy triumph of one America over another." Frank is a latter-day Mencken, as readers of his journal "The Baffler and his book "The Conquest of Cool know. With incisive analysis, passionate advocacy, and razor-sharp wit, he asks where we?re headed-and whether we're going to like it when we get there.

The Atlantic blue crab, Callinectes sapidus, is an economically, ecologically and recreationally valuable decapod crustacean that inhabits estuaries along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of the United States. In their natural environment, blue crabs are subjected to many stressors including anthropogenic contaminants, viruses and bacteria. Bacterial infection results in the depression of oxygen uptake, and impairs normal metabolic function in a manner that has not yet been fully elucidated. Our laboratory is developing NMR-based metabolomic tools for environmental research based on the ability to discover metabolomic biomarkers of stress in marine organisms. We have used NMR spectroscopy to compare the response of the crab metabolome to depression of aerobic metabolism by injection of Vibrio campbellii, versus elevation of aerobic metabolism by treatment with 2,4- dinitrophenol (DNP), a known uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation. The corresponding NMR spectral variations between crab treatments were evaluated using chemometric tools for pattern recognition and biomarker identification, including principle components analysis (PCA) and partial least-squares (PLS) analysis. Significant metabolic changes were identified in crab hemolymph 30 min after injection with V. campbellii. Glucose, considered a reliable indicator for biological stress in crustaceans, provided the largest variation in the metabolome. While biological variability and/or tight regulation of the hemolymph masked subtle metabolic changes at individual time-points, metabolic trajectory analysis revealed clear differences between the two modes of oxidative stress, providing insight into the biochemical pathways involved.

Building Green Classrooms
Green business is a hot topic in business school classrooms. Now, it seems, the classroom where those classes are being held is likely to be a little bit greener, too.
Initiatives include a $60-million business school building at the University of Illinois that has just opened and that includes such green features as photovoltaic panels on the roof, triple-paned windows, and low-maintenance plantings. Other examples are compost piles for organic waste and dual-flush toilets at Dartmouth's Tuck School of Business and plans for an energy-efficient upgrade to an historic structure at Thunderbird School of Global Management, just outside Phoenix.
Business schools say their students are demanding and driving the change on campus. Typical is Jake Berlin, a second-year student at New York University's Stern School of Business and vice-president of the Stern Campus Greening Initiative, which is part of the Social Enterprise Association. "Whatever I do must have some sort of impact beyond the money I bring home or what the company I work for [earns]," Berlin says.
Research Grant
In addition to helping implement enhanced recycling and reducing paper use on campus, Berlin and his group are aiming to build a 6,500-square-foot green roof for the top of the Kaufman Management Center, which will include an area where students can relax and a renewable energy system for the elevator machine room. The Class of 2008 donated $530,000 for the roof, and the university recently gave students a $23,000 grant to research the safety and security of a green roof. Stern also boasts water bottle refilling stations to encourage students to use refillable water bottles.
Recyling trash is one thing, but at the Thunderbird School of Global Management in Glendale, Ariz., students are leading an initiative to recycle an entire building, the Thunderbird Veterans & Alumni Tower, which had housed faculty and administrative offices, a student lounge, and a café over the years. But it was closed in 2006 because of structural problems.
Built in 1939, the building originally served as an air control tower and officer's quarters during the operation of the Thunderbird Army Air Field, a World War II training facility. Last fall, a student-led task force took up the issue of the tower and kicked off a project to restore it—and make it green. "We're trying to keep things the same while updating it to be green," says Rebecca Mitchell, one of the students leading the effort to restore the tower. "It's the merging of two worlds."
Zinc Roofing
Students have raised $150,000 so far to create the plans, and they will need $2.5 million to complete the restoration. The building, whose plans are being designed by Drewett+Brenden Architecture, will include a desert landscape featuring indigenous plants to help conserve water, and solar panels and zinc—which is one of the most sustainable materials—on the roof. Old materials from the building are either getting recycled or will be reused in the new building. Mitchell and second-year-student Will Counts say they are aiming for platinum certification from the Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) rating system, which is a certification program and nationally accepted benchmark for design, construction, and operation of green buildings.
Many universities are either seeking LEED certification or following its guidelines while constructing or renovating on-campus buildings. Harvard Business School has four LEED-certified projects on campus and three projects pending, says Meghan Duggan, assistant director of mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and sustainability (BusinessWeek.com, 9/28/2007) at HBS.
Harvard's Hamilton Hall received gold certification from LEED and is considered one of Boston's greenest buildings, Duggan says. Moreover, in fiscal year 2007, HBS brought its recycling rate up to 53%, which means the school is sending out more recyclables than trash. Duggan says students, 70% of whom told HBS that the environment will be important to them when they become managers, have motivated the rest of the community to take action. And education and awareness have become key components of their campus efforts. "What our lesson learned has been is that people want to do the right thing," says Duggan. "But they just don't always know what it is."
Special Heating and Cooling
Dartmouth College's Tuck School of Business has had energy-efficient buildings for a while; the cold New England climate makes them a necessity, points out Penny Paquette, a 1976 MBA graduate of Tuck who is now the school's assistant dean for strategic initiatives. She is helping Tuck complete a three-building living and learning complex. Although the school decided not to seek LEED certification because of the cost and additional paperwork, the organizers followed the guidelines set out for Silver-level certification.
Students are expected to move in over Christmas break. Eighty-five students will live in the complex, and it will house three classrooms, 15 study rooms, and many social areas. It includes a system that has air running over cold and hot water pipes for heating and cooling, dual-flush toilets that save water by providing one button for small flushes and another for full flushes, and master light switches in each room. The design also maximized the use of natural light to minimize the need for artificial lighting. There are also built-in recycling stations, low-emission paint, and furniture and carpets that were either made of organic materials or created in a way that used natural resources responsibly. "I really think most people recognize we're having a big impact on the world, and all these little things add up," says Paquette.
Indeed, some schools are even planning for the future of the green movement as they design their buildings. For instance, the MIT Sloan School of Management, is completing one building, currently referred to as E-62, that will be solar ready, so solar panels can be installed at a later date. The building will include some offices, classrooms, and a dining hall, for starters. Although it has sufferend some delays—fund-raising, originally set to start just after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, was postponed, and MIT later got a new president—the building's design was finished in 2005 and construction should be completed in 2010. Sustainable features include recycled materials, hot water preheated in the kitchen, and a "chilled beam" system that can be used for both cooling and heating the office areas.
Greening of Minds
This is just the beginning, says Lucinda Hill, director of Sloan Capital Projects. "It's a sense of lifestyle," she says. "We're not opening a building and then just being done with it. We're going to encourage efficient use of energy throughout the life of the building." And, she adds, the space is flexible so that it can change with the times.
What's happening at these business schools is meant to put green efforts on the priority list for future business leaders. "The real impact we have is when students take what they learn and use it to inform the way they run businesses," says Gregory Unruh, director of the Lincoln Center for Ethics in Global Management at Thunderbird.
At Stern, Berlin and his group this fall are launching what they call the "greening of the minds," in which professors commit to talk to students about environmental issues through the lens of the subjects they teach. Berlin and his group are also campaigning for more case studies related to environmental issues. "Out in the world, there's a lot of skepticism [about going green]. Some people think it's a fad," says Berlin. "We take the stance not only that it's not a fad, but that it's here to stay."

The powerful connection between the mind and the skin is well-known, and many skin disorders show a clear relationship to the state of mind: stress and sleep deprivation, for example, can directly damage skin barrier function, in patients with atopic dermatitis and even in patients with normal skin.
However, the reverse is also true and perhaps even more important: skin problems can lead to stress, depression, and anxiety, both directly and possibly via sleep deprivation and other means.
Recently there has been more focus on the connection between eczema and depression, poor sleep, and a connection with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This relationship is complex and may be simply related to the disruption of normal sleep that accompanies most moderate or severe eczema, but there may be something deeper that explains them independently, such as a more sensitive nervous system.
In the meantime, it is important to recognize these issues and seek treatment as each can affect other aspects, creating a vicious cycle that can spiral out of control, affecting the entire family, school, and work environments beyond just the patient with eczema.

Micro Center- Rebate Dept. Over $500 spent, Promised Rebates, Received None! Duluth Georgia
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
My fiance and I spent over $500.00 between Duluth Microcenter and Marrietta Microcenter. We did not recieve any rebates for the Marrietta location, but recieved about 3 rebates for items in the Duluth Location. As instructed I mailed in the rebates. 2 months later, we still did not recieve anything. At least a notification on if we did or didn't qualify would have been helpful. So, I call the rebate number the lady tells me to copy the UPC/ Barcodes send them in. Me not remembering which one is which I sent them all in, because I knew 3 of them qualified. 3 more months go by with no notification. I call the number again they so oh my manager put a note none of your UPC/SKU's qualify.
False Advertisement MicroCenter, take the word Rebate off the box if you don't plan to give customer rewards!!! Next time my fiance wants to build a computer, we will not be going to MicroCenter! I created an account with them. Rebate Department should have took a look at all of the items we bought.
To Everyone Reading Please Don't Shop At MicroCenter, they don't care about the money you spend in their store. They only pretend to Care. They give you some Pretend Rebates, make you feel like your getting a deal. We Won't be Back! Promise!!!

Microsoft Rebates Aren't Real!
SUBMITTED: Friday, May 16, 2014POSTED: Friday, May 16, 2014
The rebate receipt says to wait 10-12 weeks before rebate can be complete! There are 4 weeks in one month, so naturally 2 months=8 weeks of waiting! We went 2 two different locations because 1 location didn't have everything we needed. I completed the rebate forms correctly. Did not get a reponse. Talke 2 a rep 8 Weeks later told me to send all of my UPC/SKU's at this point I sent them all knowing 2-3 of them would qualify. I have the bottom of 3 receipts in my hand right now with the Rebate Terms in Conditions Listed. One of your reps has contacted me. But you guys still can't tell me if I all of my rebates are in valid why do I have the terms and conditions/steps to filling out Rebate form for 3 of my reciepts.
So basically,you guys just attach Rebate Terms and Conditions on the bottom of reciepts for the fun of it. Do not expect people to fill out the form.You guys pretend to care 5 months ago I should have recieved my rebates not keep going back in forth with Reps.
Attention All Customers Do Not Shop at Micro Center, don't waste time filling out Rebate Form, the Rebate Instructions were put on the bottom of your reciept for fun! You will get no money back at all.

Your report raises questions to me.
1) Why would you be buying from 2 different locations?
2) Are you talking about 2 different times of buying?
3) How many rebates were you asking for and how many were you rewarded for EACH location?
4) Did you receive any of the rebates you are asking for? (not clear in your report due to the sentence right after the one saying about receiving 3 rebates)
5) Why did you wait for 2 months before you contacted them?
6) You admitted that you CAN NOT remember which barcode was sent in, why and how would you expect them to be qualified?
7) What was the reason that why the UPC/SKUs were not qualified?
The rebate system is a known marketing strategy. If one is buying an item based on rebate, the one is not in the right mind. The system is not robust and could easily be cheated regardless who is offering. So you need to understand the system. If you believe in the system, I am looking forward to your next post about failure from other companies' rebate...

Loeb Rumored to Short Nu Skin, Herbalife Rival
Posted by: Dianne Tordillo (IP Logged)
Date: January 22, 2013 05:17PM
After taking an 8 percent stake in Herbalife (HLF) earlier this month, a company that's on several hedge fund managers' shorting lists, including Pershing Square's Bill Ackman, activist investor Daniel Loeb of Third Point has allegedly made a baffling decision to short Herbalife rival, Nu Skin Enterprises (NUS).
Nu Skin is a company that produces and sells anti-aging and nutrition products. And just like Herbalife, it operates through a multi-level marketing business model.
Although Herbalife has been labeled a pyramid scheme by multiple investors who have shorted the stock, Loeb has countered the claim saying he "believes Herbalife operates squarely within the FTC's boundaries," as originally quoted by the NY Post.
While some may be scratching their heads with Loeb's latest move, the Post reports that Loeb's decision to short Nu Skin has something to do with Nu Skin's growth in China being hindered by the country's prohibition of multi-level marketing firms.
In a report done by online stock reviews site, Citron Research, the company claimed that Nu Skin was operating its business illegally in China, and was in apparent violation of FDA and FTC regulatory laws in the U.S.
Loeb has allegedly been researching the company since 2011.
Nu Skin operates in 53 international markets, including America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Africa and the Middle East. It has more than 913,000 active independent contractors according to nuskin.com.
On Jan. 16, Nu Skin published an update in regards to its fourth quarter fiscal results. For the 2012 year, the company estimated revenue of $2.17 billion, a growth of more than 24 percent comparable to prior year. Earnings growth is expected to be 30 percent, while dividend payment is expected to increase by 50 percent.
The company's dividend has increased in payment by 140 percent in the last three years.
According to its 10-Year Financials, Nu Skin has had a 10-year EBITDA growth rate of 10.9 percent and a 10-year revenue growth rate of 9.3 percent. The stock has a dividend yield of 1.8 percent, a P/E ratio of 12.4, a P/B ratio of 4.7 and a P/S ratio of 1.4.
In three years, Nu Skin's market value has gained 72.88 percent. However, the news concerning Loeb has sent Nu Skin's stock lower this afternoon, down 0.13 percent minutes before market close. Its stock price is currently $44.89.
Gurus with long positions in the stock include Chuck Royce, Joel Greenblatt, Paul Tudor Jones and Jim Simons (NUS: Guru Holding History).

Anyone who thinks there is no rebirth is by an anihilationist who rejects anatta
An anihilationist is someone who holds there is a self to be anihilated, dont assume that because someone says there is no rebirth one is an anihilationist
This is where it gets tricky, because you've asserted that there is no rebirth (though in the beginning you stated a little differently), which would mean that death of rupa is the end of the story. That being the case, it's an indirect way of saying that there is a self to be anihiated when the body dies and decays. If there were truly no independent self then death of rupa would be illusory. We would continue on after death in with a different set of clinging aggregates due to the causes and conditions we created with actions and volition in this life. Do you see where I'm going?

Chapter 1: Our first cruise
We made big plans. We were going to sail 25 nautical miles, from Port Charlotte down the Peace River to Cayo Costa state park aboard our new 1978Watkins 27, Miss Marisol. Crew included my wife and 5 year-old daughter.
Although I have experience sailing dinghy's, my only experience with a 20+ foot sailboat was in ASA 101. This is also my only experience with a winch.
As I hoisted the main halyard for the first time I managed to foul the line on the winch at a point where the main was as tight as it could get. Damn.
Leading up to this point, I had dreamed about sailing Miss Marisol every night for the past week. Literally. In every dream, every night.
I unfurled the genoa and we were sailing. But I had a problem I couldn't fix. I pulled out my iPad and started searching for solutions online. I tried running the line forward and around to another winch to break the catch. This and every other idea was useless. My girls were getting upset.
At this point, the wind died. We moved 100 yards in 40 minutes. I spent this time working on my fouled line. I had to cut the halyard to drop the main.
We then motored a few miles to find the wind, and started sailing on the genoa. This was a good decision. We saw several dolphins including a mother and baby, and some large rays. The motor was off and my girls where smiling. I had worried that my girls would have a bad experience and not enjoy sailing.
Our big plans were cancelled. We decided to turn around and head back to the dock where I could replace the halyard. We stayed aboard Miss Marisol (kept at a dock behind a strangers house via Craigslist) and awoke the next morning to solve our problems. I bought a new line, met with a rigger who could splice the end loop, and arranged to get my 1 missing mast step replaced.
Then we enjoyed another 3-hour cruise, sailing on the genoa.
This wasn't the grand adventure I had imagined, but it was great family time. My girls loved it when the sails were up and the diesel off. They played cards (Go Fish) while I tacked up to Punta Gorda. Their smiles told me everything I needed to know.
Re: Chapter 1: Our first cruise
All, in all, it sounds like you got your feet wet (per se) and some of the kinks worked out. Your next time out will be smoother sailing. Have fun!!
Re: Chapter 1: Our first cruise
Fowled the odd winch myself a few times. You can read up on all this stuff but you just need to do it to get comfy with your Watkins. Keep smiling, it just gets better.:)
Re: Chapter 1: Our first cruise
Glad everything worked out. Have you figured out everything you did wrong? if so, you had a good day. There's no better knowledge than that learned the hard way.
Re: Chapter 1: Our first cruise
Good decisions, good sailing, good experience. Congrats on getting out there.
Sail on!
Re: Chapter 1: Our first cruise
I sailed a little borrowed Catalina shoal draft center board thing, from Ft. Myers up to Gasparilla, back down to costa, and down to Cabbage Key on a three day adventure over Thanks Giving with my dad. Still one of my Favorite weekend cruises of all time! I love that area. Get back out there, they are gonna love it.,....bring bug spray and a mosquito screen, and coils.....and fans.
Re: Chapter 1: Our first cruise
I love happy ending. Time with your kids is priceless. And soon you will an old salt. :D.
Re: Chapter 1: Our first cruise
Sounds like a great adventure.
I'm jealous and wish I was doing it right now. :D
Re: Chapter 1: Our first cruise
Two big thumbs up. Sailing a boat never quite goes to plan. Good skipper's improvise- sounds like you did- welcome to the club. Smiles all around for the crew.
Fair winds in the future to you and your crew.
Chapter 1: Our first cruise
Good write up. You might look up how to tie a rolling hitch. Allows you to tie a line above the winch, relieve the tension, and clear the override. That's something that will happen again.

Problem A:
What should be required to show the authority of partners to execute conveyances in behalf of the partnership?
Standard A:
A conveyance from a partnership holding the title is sufficient if it recites that the partners executing it are all the partners, in the absence of information to the contrary. When it does not appear that all the partners executed the conveyance, satisfactory evidence of authority should be required.
Authority of the partner or partners executing the conveyance should be presumed after it has been of record for five years.
Problem B:
Should an objection be made to the title because a deed to a partnership does not disclose that the grantee is a partnership?
Standard B:
No, but if the partnership name does not contain the names of all of the partners, a fictitious name certificate must be filed in any county where the partnership owns real property. (Revised Code Section 1777.02)

TED talks features photographer Lisa Kristine bearing witness to modern-day slavery
An illegal mine shaft in Ghana. The brick kilns of northern India. A cabin restaurant on a side street of Kathmandu. Fishing boats on the lapping waters of Lake Volta: Over the last three years photographer Lisa Kristine has documented these sites of forced labor and human trafficking.
Ms Kristine described her journey to bear witness to the atrocities of modern-day slavery during a TED Talk in Maui earlier this year. " A conservative estimate tells us there are more than 27 million people enslaved in the world today. That's double the amount of people taken from Africa during the entire trans-Atlantic slave trade," she said.
And as it always has been, slavery today is driven by commerce and commercial interests. "The goods enslaved people produce have value. But the people that produce them are disposable," Ms Kristine stated.
Her photographs glowed behind her throughout her talk: a man's eyes shut as he carries a load of bricks on his head, gasping for breath through a cloud of dust; a woman leans against the wall of room illuminated in fluorescent light awaiting her next customer. A cloth curtain separates her from her neighbour. In one photo a young boy in an oversized purple T-shirt looks deep into the camera as his tiny hands clutch an paddle that will propel him from the water's edge deep into the lake for his long day at work.
"I truly believe, if we can see one another as fellow human beings, then it becomes very difficult to tolerate atrocities like slavery. These images are not of issues. They are of people, real people, like you and me, all deserving of the same rights, dignity and respect in their lives."
Watch her full length talk here:

Metal Detecting in State Parks
The reasonable use of metal detectors is permitted in quite a few state parks. However, metal detecting is not permitted where this activity would conflict with a facility in use, nor is it permitted within fenced areas of swimming pool complexes.
Metal detecting on beaches and in lake swimming areas will be permitted within a reasonable distance of shore from the Tuesday after Labor Day until the Saturday prior to Memorial Day, unless posted otherwise. During the summer season, metal detecting in beach and swimming areas will be at the discretion of the Park Manager based on his knowledge of the use and type of facility. Metal detecting in other underwater areas will be permitted within a reasonable distance of shore if it does not conflict with other activities or have potential for causing damage to the facility.
Many state park areas have the potential for the recovery of valuable historical objects. State park areas with this potential may have part or all of their area closed to metal detecting.
There is no fee charged for metal detecting in PA State Parks.
Hours Permitted to Metal Detect
Metal detecting is permitted only from sunrise to sunset.
Digging Tools
Shovels, spades, garden trowels, and other similar tools may not be used to dig into or turn over ground areas that are covered by turf, vegetation, shrubs, or trees. The only permissible digging tools are screwdrivers, ice picks, and other similar narrow pronged devices.
Finding Items
The finding of historical objects in any state park area should be handled by first contacting the park manager of the particular park. In addition, persons should consult the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission if they are seeking or find historical artifacts.
Individuals shall report items which are found and will be removed from the park.
Who To Contact
Individuals who want to use a metal detector in a state park must receive prior approval from the specific park manager on-site at the park and report items which are found and will be removed from the park. Contact a Park

While our elites are laboring to gut civil right back to pre-Magna Carta levels with the passage SB 1867, one heroic senator was at least able to win a small partial victory. Here's the story:
The bill (which passed) had an amendment aiming to make this horrible assault on our liberties even more ghastly. The bill as it stands will allow Caesar to arrest you without charge and detain you forever without counsel, if he decides to say you are a terrorist or somebody affiliated with terrorists. That is folly enough, but they wanted to attach an amendment which would allow the state to continue detaining you even if you were found not guilty in a civil court. Against this even more egregious assault on our freedom (led, natch, by the now officially insane Republican party, with the bipartisan cooperation of some Dems), Rand Paul sallied forth to do battle and won. The bill still passed but without that final gobbet of mucus hocked up and spat upon Magna Carta and the Constitution by our now thoroughly anti-American elites in the Senate.
Obama *says* he will veto it. However, Obama also just said that the Court has no power to tell him that he can't murder American citizens on his unilateral royal decree. I'll believe he will veto this dangerous and treasonous betrayal of the Constitution when I see it.
Meanwhile, huzzah to Rand Paul for doing a heroic thing in opposing the disgusting sovietization of American security that is being led, to their lasting shame, by the Thing that Used to be Conservatism. Every Senator that voted for this should be tried for treason.

EXCLUSIVE: Focus Features has optioned Deprivation, an action thriller script from Jason Doty. It's the writer's first sale. Story follows a desperate man who, three days after his family dies mysteriously in a fire, discovers he can travel back in time if he never falls asleep. Project will be produced by Process Media's Tim Perell. Doty teaches screenwriting and film production at Purdue University and is repped by UTA and Schreck, Rose, Dapello & Adams, LLP.
Focus Features Springs For Action Thriller Script 'Deprivation'
21 Comments
How do you purport to teach screenwriting, when this is your first option. There are 24-year-old's will millions in the bank from screenwriting, and this dude is no doubt one of those clowns who is always criticizing filmmakers' output. Weak.
"There are 24-year-old's will millions in the bank"
Without doubt, you are better suited to be teaching at the university level.
Ummm… given the state of the marketplace, the bar's high for a mini-major/producer team to spend the time/resources to option/develop a spec like this. If it wasn't great, they wouldn't bother, regardless of the writer's profession.
Sounds Awesome. And kudos to Tim Perell for finding new talent. That's what a real producer does.
I have had the pleasure of reading this script and look forward to seeing it on the screen. It is a great thriller and a wonderful piece of fiction.
Sounds like an idea he came up with just last week after drinking a Pepsi and not falling asleep at his usual time.
Why the F was this guy teaching screenwriting if he had never sold a script?
Why the F would you be teaching screenwriting in Indiana if you could be selling scripts instead?
There are probably thousands of screenwriting courses being currently taught at virtually every liberal arts, state, tech, and ag school in the country. How many spec scripts sold to a major or mini major last year? Then do the math.
You don't magically gain talent and ability and insight the moment you sell a project. Sort of like someone can be a great guitar teacher without ever having been paid to perform, ya' know?
You sound jealous? You should research his background before making such a stupid comment.
Writer's ego will do him In
And students, that's what we call high concept. It can be stupid as all get out, but as long as it can be explained in one sentence chances are an illiterate studio exec will jump all over it.
You can sneak a lot by them that way.
I'm pretty sure he's a professor because of his film production experience: camera-working, directing, etc., rather than his screenwriting.
Jason Doty is an excellent teacher and a good person. I learned a lot from his classes. I hope he is very successful in all his endeavors. It isn't polite to criticize someone you have never had the opportunity to meet.
to the naysayers, there are far fewer screenwriters with actual industry experience than there are jobs in universities for teaching writing. Absolutely there is no relationship between a person's actual industry experience and their talent. Plenty of extraordinary individuals teach for a living, and this particular sale is all the evidence anyone needs to know that many of them are fantastic.
Oh come on… not selling a script does not mean he lacks screenwriting skills. (He could have written 20 top-notch skills that for one reason or another just weren't right for the market) Anyone who thinks otherwise can't be too familiar with the industry realities of selling a script. See the list of Nicholl winners versus the list of Nicholl winners who've sold a script.
The idea that a great script will always get made is just so much horsesh*t.
This man is an accomplished film maker. He is very talented and knows what he is doing. I have read the script and it is high concept and a great piece of writing. People on here are just jealous that he has an actual original idea and that their scripts for Beer League 2 were turned down! And furthermore he would never drink a Pepsi. That stuff is swill!
Thousands of scripts are registered with WGA every year. Odds of selling a script to a studio are probably the same as getting a hole in one on the golf course, about 5000 to 1. Congrats Jason on not letting the dream die. I know that you graduated from the Film school at FSU over 10 years ago. Those that have talent and the drive to keep going often find success.
Congrats to him.
And there are thousands of professional screenwriters in Hollywood who work and have no credits. They're the ones who do the rewrites etc.
The idea that anyone should be teaching screenwriting or taking a screenwriting class at a school so culturally vacant as frat haven engineering school Purdue is hilarious.

I have a flat, black and small beauty mark. It's in the right bottom side of my nose (just like Marilyn Monroe.) I don't like how it looks and i'm looking forward on removing it. I've read that the most efficient way of removing it is by laser treatment. But this beauty mark it's genetic because my dad had it, but he had it removed 20 yrs ago. Leaving a scar. And I just want to know if now laser removal may leave a scar on me too.
Laser Removal of a Flat and Black Beauty Mark Can Leave a Scar? If So, How Can It Be Removed?
Doctor Answers 2
Mole removal
I would highly recommend that you see a board certified facial plastic surgeon for an evaluation and possible treatment. An option may be to completely surgically excise the mole, however you will be trading it in for a scar.
Laser removal of a mole
I feel that it is never appropriate to use a laser as your primary treatment for removing a mole. Regardless of how "benign" a mole may appear, a biopsy may still reveal it to be atypical. There are many ways to surgically remove a mole with a minimal scar and have tissue to send for microscopic examination which is the only way to ensure that it was benign. Using a laser to improve the appearance of a mole will alter its look and make it more difficult to observe for precancerous changes in the future.
You can follow the video link below to learn more about identifying the changes in moles that are suspicious for skin cancer.

What Snowden Should Teach Us About Business and Politics, According to China's Huawei
If there's anyone who should know a thing or two about the business consequences of geopolitical tensions, it's Huawei Technologies. The Chinese network equipment maker became a target of U.S. congressional hearings and was squeezed out of deals as evidence of corporate espionage and widespread government hacking from China reached a fever pitch late in 2012.
The recent leaks from Edward Snowden showing extensive spying by the U.S. National Security Agency should give Huawei a healthy dose of schadenfreude. Jane Li, the chief operating officer at Huawei Enterprise USA, said companies shouldn't obsess over which government gets caught stealing secrets this week.
"The Snowden effect gives everybody perspective that we need to separate politics from business," Li said in an interview on Bloomberg TV. "Governments need to do what they need to do, and that's the situation for both U.S. and China."
The perspective couldn't have come at a better time for Huawei. In an interview last October, John Suffolk, the company's global cybersecurity officer, told Bloomberg News that it could take a decade to resolve data-security concerns in the U.S. About a month later, Ren Zhengfei, Huawei's founder and CEO, told French journalists that the company had decided to exit the U.S. market and stay out of U.S.-China relations, Foreign Policy reported based on a Chinese transcript.
Ren appears to have overstated the company's intentions, the interview with Li suggests.
"When you're caught in the crossfire between two large world economic powers, it's hard not to get sentimental about it," Li told Emily Chang and Sam Grobart on "Bloomberg West." "But the truth is, this is one of the greatest markets in the world for IT, and we like it here."
While China is driving Huawei's business today, don't count the U.S. out. "We are not leaving U.S.," Li said. "On the contrary, we are growing our business in the U.S."

Paternity tests rise
The Sun-Herald
Page Tools
The use of DNA paternity tests has increased by more than 60 per cent over the past three years, say Australian testing laboratories.
Scientists estimate that 5000 tests are expected this year, up from 3000 in 2002.
They estimate up to 10 per cent of men who believe they have fathered a child are not the biological parent, while 20 per cent of those who demand a paternity test have that fear confirmed.
Men from poorer backgrounds comprise the bulk of those tested.

What makes things popular? Why do people talk about certain products and ideas more than others? Why are some stories and rumors more infectious?
At NSSF's 2014 Industry Summit, Jonah Berger will explain why certain products get more word of mouth than others and why certain online content goes viral. Berger explains the key emotional and societal factors that push people to share a link or mail a video — the basic human drivers that power sharing and word of mouth, one of the most credible and influential forms of advertising. He believes we are too focused on the medium — Facebook, YouTube and Twitter only serve as tools that amplify this very human process. The author of The New York Times and Wall Street Journal best-selling "Contagious: Why Things Catch On," Berger examines how decision making and social dynamics generate collective outcomes such as social contagion and trends.
Berger is the James G. Campbell associate professor of marketing at the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania.

Going to be parting with my love of my life soon, sad I know!! So to help ease the pain a little bit I hoped there would be a member on here that would enjoy adding Bluetooth to their 2008 CTS! From the pictures you can tell that it is from a 2011 CTS and is a LG VCIM with part # 22739392. I have the VCIM, Bluetooth antennae, and the mounting bracket that was included from the 2011.
First Pictures is of the actual VCIM
Second Picture is of the sheet I received from the yard I purchased it from
This VCIM is boxed and ready to go to a new home. It'll be shipped via USPS Priority Mail when I receive payment.

RIR brings exposure, money to county
By Tom Lappas, Henrico Citizen Editor 02/16/11
It began 65 years ago as little more than a dusty oval at a rural fairgrounds. Today, it hosts more than a quarter-million visitors annually, is home to the only major league sporting events in Virginia and perhaps does more than any other single entity to attract national and international attention to Henrico County.
It's the Richmond International Raceway, and its legacy has earned it the No. 21 spot on the Henrico Citizen's list of the most significant moments in Henrico history.
The raceway holds an important spot not only in Henrico history but also in the history of its sport and NASCAR (the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing). Only three tracks (in Daytona, Fla., Martinsville, Va. and Darlington, S.C.) have continuously hosted NASCAR races at their present locations longer than RIR. Unlike many of the now-defunct tracks that hosted races in the sport's early years, RIR has survived – and thrived.
As a result, it's help stamp Henrico County on the national and international racing landscape.
"We think this adds a lot to the quality of life in this community," said RIR President Doug Fritz, who has been at the helm of the raceway since International Speedway Corporation purchased it from its longtime owners, the Sawyer family, in 1999. "We're very proud to be part of Henrico County and the history of Henrico County. Our entire life has been here in Henrico County.
The last 50 years have been great years for Henrico County, and we like to think that we're some of the reason for that success."
The raceway, which hosts two race weekends annually, generates an estimated $417 million each year in total economic impact for the Metro Richmond region and helps employ nearly 7,000 people, according to the Richmond Metropolitan Convention and Visitors Bureau. Even non-NASCAR fans who live in the county and have never attended a race feel the benefits produced by RIR.
"The economic benefit you can see both directly and indirectly," said John Vithoulkas, Henrico County finance director, who said the county receives $1 million annually in direct real estate, business license tax and business personal property tax payments and hotel taxes. "And that doesn't include sales taxes generated by all the fans."
RIR and tourism officials estimate that the track's events generate $75 million a year in overall tax revenue to the county, state and federal governments.
A changing landscape
It's hard to say how Ted Horn would fare in a modern racecar at RIR today – where drivers exceed 120 mph and sometimes race three-wide – but it's safe to say he was adequately prepared for its first official race, which he won on Oct. 12, 1946 in an open-wheel car that averaged nearly 46 mph. The track was then a half-mile dirt oval at the Atlantic Rural Exposition Fairgrounds known to some as the Strawberry Hill Speedway.
The track held its first NASCAR event April 19, 1953 – a 100-mile race won by legend Lee Petty. Two years later, Paul Sawyer and driver Joe Weatherly purchased the facility, presiding over its growing reputation that led to a second NASCAR race being added to its annual schedule in 1959. The twice-yearly schedule has continued since, and today RIR is one of 13 tracks to host two Sprint Cup Series races a year and one of only 10 to host two Nationwide Series races annually.
In 1968, the track was paved for the first time, and in 1988, it was lengthened to its current and distinctive three-quarter-mile shape. It's the only track on the NASCAR circuit of that length, and drivers and fans alike appreciate its unique elements that often result in exciting, competitive races rather than monotonous ones. RIR's capacity has grown steadily from 58,000 in 1992 to its officially listed capacity of 98,000 today (though a number of races in recent years have attracted crowds of more than 100,000). The raceway's 33-race sellout streak ended in Sept. 2008.
While many other tracks on the NASCAR circuit are located on the outskirts of cities, surrounded by asphalt and little else, RIR is clearly the product of humble beginnings, still sitting adjacent to modest neighborhoods and surrounded by industrial parks and suburban roads.
When ISC bought the facility, it was still sharing some "amenities" with its neighbor, the State Fair of Virginia.
"We still had chicken coops and horse stalls and hen houses and all that," Fritz said.
ISC and RIR have added new amenities during the past 12 years, including the Torque Club, which sits high above the track and offers spectators what Fritz calls "one of the best fan experiences you can have in any sport," and a new LED scoring tower and video screen that debuted last year, allowing every spectator to see the race leaders. Today, "we're considered one of the most premier sports facilities in this country," he said.
Fritz made a point to take advantage of the track's unique setting to develop relationships with its neighbors. He opened the facility to the community, inviting residents of Essex Village and other neighborhoods to enjoy National Night Out cookouts and take pace-car laps around the track. He's also involved track employees in a plethora of community initiatives through the years.
"It's the right thing to do," he said. "We wanted people to see that we're not just the 'Green Giant' across the street. We do care about this community, and a lot of our efforts are focused on the youth."
Wide-reaching impact
The overall impact that RIR has on Henrico County and Metro Richmond from a national and international standpoint may be difficult to judge specifically, but it's clear that the exposure it provides to the region through a sport with an estimated 75 million fans is significant. For those who watch races in person, on television or who listen on radio, Richmond International Raceway is a familiar name.
"We are drawing fans on every NASCAR weekend from all 50 states, and that's great exposure for Henrico County," Fritz said. "Some of the fans come back to visit Henrico County. And this is a part of the country that they may not have seen if not for Richmond International Raceway."
In addition to hosting two weekends of NASCAR racing every year – each of which makes the complex the eighth-largest city in Virginia for one day – the raceway complex hosts dozens of conventions, expos and shows in its expo halls throughout the year, bringing thousands more regional visitors to Henrico County.
When NASCAR switched to a new playoff system in 2004, RIR realized more good fortune as the host of the final race before the 10-race playoff began. Each year since, drivers on the fringe of the playoff chase have come to Richmond anxious to make one final push before the watchful eyes of NASCAR nation.
Late last year, the Richmond Metropolitan Convention and Visitors Bureau launched a proactive effort to encourage businesses and fans to purchase tickets to both of this year's races as a way to solidify RIR's hold on its twice-annual schedule. This year, Atlanta and Fontana, Calif., each lost one of their two races, and Fritz said there's no guarantee from year to year that any track will maintain two races.
"I feel pretty good, but we can't be complacent," he said. "This is very important for us as a community. It's not going to be easy, and it's going to take a lot of work on a lot of people's parts, including mine, to keep two races here.
"But as long as people keep supporting Richmond International Raceway, we're going to be here a long time"
Richmond International Raceway will host its 110th Sprint Cup Series race April 30, one day after it hosts the Nationwide Series race. For tickets or details, visit http://www.rir.com.

It's no surprise when a business deal begins to take shape during a golf outing.
Perhaps less common is the business deal that percolates during a youth football practice. But such was the case for Varina District Supervisor Tyrone Nelson.
During a visit to former Varina High School football star Michael Robinson's football camp, Nelson was discussing with Robinson his excitement for the new Varina Library, whose opening last June was at that time forthcoming.

Antioxidant support
Promotes healthy glutathione levels at the cellular level
May also promote healthy immune system function
N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine from Life Extension helps promote good glutathione levels in the body. N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine (NAC) is an antioxidant that promotes intracellular glutathione at the cellular level. NAC can act as a precursor for glutathione synthesis as well as a stimulator of the cytosolic enzymes involved in glutathione regeneration. NAC is the more efficiently absorbed and used form of the amino acid L-cysteine. L-cysteine plays a role in the sulfation cycle, acting as a sulfur donor in phase II detoxification and as a methyl donor in the conversion of homocysteine to methionine. N-acetyl-L-cysteine also supports healthy immune function.
