In season five of Mad Men, advertising creative Peggy Olson becomes exasperated at the increasingly erratic, unprofessional behaviour of her male colleagues. "Am I the only one who can work and drink at the same time?" she asks.
This scene is set in the Seventies, but at last things have caught up with Olson. Her choice to bring a boozy drink to the meeting room was a savvy career move. If you are a woman wondering how to speed ahead at work, the answer might lie at the bottom of a whisky bottle.
We aren't advocating anything irresponsible — this is power drinking with a purpose. According to a recent study by marketing firm ReD Associates, which spent more than a year interviewing professional women across the world, it isn't extra graft or wearing the right suit that gives women the edge in competitive, male-dominated industries but simply getting the drinks in. Theresa May has got away with sticking to the St Clement's (a joyless, alcohol-free mix of orange juice and a lemon-flavoured drink), but perhaps if she had thrown in some vodka she would be Prime Minister by now.
Joy Lo Dico, Londoner's Diary editor and co-founder of The Other Club, a space for professional women, says she noticed prosecco was a great unifier at their events. "Prosecco flies off the shelves because you can share it with your friends, which you can't with beer, and it's more special than wine. The ultimate power drink, though, is a gin and tonic. It's a signal that a woman has finished a hard job — for times when a glass of wine just won't do."
"Holding a drink makes you one of the crowd," says Janice B Gordon, founder of The Problem Solver business who regularly attends networking events at The London Chamber. "It's useful to have common ground and a drink can help that. It also gives women confidence, especially when they are in a minority."
But there are some rules, and deviating from them can cause trouble. In Caitlin Moran's new novel, How to Build a Girl, the young heroine is so overwhelmed at her first office pub trip and doesn't know what to order so ends up clumsily asking for a "cider and soda", lying that it is definitely a thing in the Midlands.
In other industries, women feel they have to drink beer with the boys to avoid being seen as prissy. "My boss, who is a woman, respects beer drinkers," says a woman who works in advertising and would like to remain anonymous (the flipside of office drinking is that no one wants to be labelled a boozer). "My seniors would roll their eyes if I got a rosé wine, my usual order. It looks girly and as if I am not part of the team.
I like whisky and ginger because it is harder to pigeonhole into a type."
Things are more relaxed at Silicon Roundabout. Beer and wine are usually the drinks of choice — regardless of gender. Vicky Hunter, of 3Beards, which organises the Silicon Drinkabout networking events, says: "I think the beauty of the tech scene in east London is that, as a result of constant and almost exhausting gender scrutiny, women are tired of being defined by their sex. We drink, eat, wear what makes us feel good. I drink what I enjoy. But I often don't want anything stronger than beer and wine — you want to be able to remember the people you meet and the conversations you've had!"
Cheers to that.
Boozing and schmoozing: the rules
The right order is crucial. Don't just minesweep the freebies, you want something that says you can make the right decision and handle your drink.
Don't feel like you have to justify what you order but be decisive about your choice — you want to look as if you do this all the time.
Know your limits. Drinking straight whisky may feel impressive but not if it gives you a coughing fit because it is so strong.
Absolutely don't get an alcopop.
Or drink with a straw.
Never ever, EVER admit you have a hangover.

Lofthouse was the reason the World Cup hero didn't wear his trademark No10 jersey and while the Newcastle star has gone on to rugby fame, fortune and almost certainly Sunday's winner of the BBC Sports Personality of the Year, a shoulder injury has forced his former outside-half to head into the City.
"I am not a green-eyed monster," said 25-year-old Lofthouse, who will start his new job on the foreign exchange floor of Deutsche Bank in the New Year. "What Jonny's achieved has been phenomenal and, like everyone else, I was watching the television cheering him wildly when that drop goal went over to win the World Cup.
"No one deserves the success more than Jonny because he's so dedicated. If anyone in any line of work put in the kind of commitment Jonny does to rugby then they'd also get success. I have huge respect for him. He knows I've quit top-level rugby and he respects my decision. I could have kept playing but, in my heart, I knew what needed to be done."
Lofthouse, who will play for National League Two side Rosslyn Park in the New Year, was captain of an outstanding Under-18 team that won the Grand Slam - thanks to a last-gasp drop goal from Wilkinson against Wales - and then they stayed unbeaten on a tour to Australia, winning a "Test" against the junior Wallabies 38-20. Lofthouse shared kicking duties with Wilkinson as they operated a successful right-left combination and remained in the same side through to England Under-21 level.
It was at this point that Lofthouse, then playing for Division One side Worcester, suffered the shoulder injury that would have a dramatic effect on his rugby career. He explained: "I was making a routine tackle during an Under-21 training session and fell on my left shoulder. It popped out of the socket and I shattered my shoulder blade. I was told I wouldn't have full mobility in the shoulder and while I did play a couple of matches at Worcester after the injury I then spoke to ex-England coach Les Cusworth, who was coaching the club, and also my parents. They felt I should get out because of the injuries that were mounting up.
"I am very pleased with the way things have now turned out because I am going to one of the top banks in the City. As far as rugby is concerned, I am going down to Rossyln Park after Christmas and will see how it goes."
Fulham-based Lofthouse, 25, is still close to former England U18 teammates Mike Tindall and Iain Balshaw and received text messages from Wilkinson during the World Cup.
How would Wilkinson do on the trading floor? "People see Jonny as a quiet guy," he said. "But, on the field he makes himself heard and that would serve him well on the trading floor.
"When we beat Australia, we shared the kicking and used to practice together. He was a great distributor in the centre and the three of us, Jonny, myself and Tins used to be a defensive wall and when we got the ball out wide there was Balsh to finish it off.
"I do remember that at that age Jonny used to get really nervous and put himself under huge pressure to perform."
That talent returns to the pitch for Newcastle on Sunday when they have a second leg clash with Valladolid in the Parker Pen Challenge Cup.
Falcons have a 61-point advantage from the first leg and this will be a training run for Wilkinson before he heads to London for the BBC awards ceremony.

In the wake of the Michael Butera situation with NAFME, there has been a lot of discussion about matters of equity and inclusion. But this will be a missed opportunity if no action is taken. Here are a few ideas--please suggest yours in the comments below...
We need to make sure that our bands, orchestras and choruses "look like" the population of students in the schools in which they exist. That may mean providing instruments for students who can't afford to rent them, subsidizing private lessons, etc.
There are still too many urban and rural students that do not have access to the same number and quality of music offerings that their peers in more affluent schools do--NAFME should make this a "talking point" in their advocacy materials and legislative work, and should be focused on addressing this kind of equity in their strategic planning.
I'd like to see NAFME, and state MEAs, sponsor scholarships for summer study for underrepresented minority students, provide free registration for solo and ensemble events for students from low SES schools, and encourage TriM chapters to identify and support minority students who are interested in becoming music teachers.
State MEAs should also look at their lists of "required solo and ensemble music" to make sure that black, Hispanic, women and LGBT composers are represented on these lists.
MEA festival coordinators should be encouraged to invite a diverse selection of guest conductors and clinicians to work with students at regional and all state festivals. These persons are often important mentors and role models for our students, and we need to make sure that our students "see" persons who look like them on podiums and in classrooms at these events. It is also important for "majority" students to have the opportunity to work with a more diverse array of guest conductors and clinicians, who often bring unique backgrounds and perspectives to their teaching.
NAFME and state MEAs should establish recruitment programs to identify promising young minority music teachers, and encourage these teachers to pursue leadership positions in their local, state and national music education associations.
There are also plenty of obstacles that need to be addressed in our college and university music programs in terms of audition procedures that make it more difficult for minority students to be accepted to these institutions to pursue music degrees.
This incident provides an opportunity for NAFME to take some serious actions to address the problems we are all aware of in our school music programs, and in higher education. As music teachers, we need to hold NAFME accountable for taking a leadership position in addressing these problems, and making this a priority in their planning moving forward.

"It's fun when we hold court," said junior WR Mike Wallace. "We get on each other pretty hard, but it's all in fun and all motivational."
Sophomore Michael Hicks says it goes beyond that sometimes.
"We are all critics. We all think every ball in the air should be caught and every block should be mae," he smiled. "We vote by slamming our hand down on the table when we think someone should have made a play that wasn't made."
The court stories have a familiar ring to them. A ring of togetherness, cohesiveness, fun and being loose that the receivers have attributed to Ole Miss WQide Receivers Coach Hugh Freeze all season and a factor, they say, in why they are playing well.
"When you are loose, you play better. We were so tight last year, but Coach Freeze doesn't allow us to be tight. We are having fun and he's so relaxed and under control that it relaxes us and allows us to play loose," Wallace continued. "We like that feeling so we can just turn loose and play without a lot of added pressure. We play real hard for Coach Freeze because he lets you play that way."
Freeze said holding court is just another way of conveying an important point while fostering unity, competition and fun.
"We're very serious about our jobs, but I think it's important to relay important messages to kids in a way that lets them have a little fun and holds their attention," Hugh explained. "Holding court is a way to do that. They razz each other pretty good and I think that motivates all of them not to get a thumbs down from their performance in games or practice. They can get pretty rough sometimes, in a good-natured way."
It's hard to figure what anyone could complain about in terms of the results the wide receivers have produced thus far this year, but Freeze says the Rebel wideouts have their work cut out for them this weekend when Arkansas rolls into town.
"Arkansas will be a big challenge for us. I am more impressed with them than any secondary we have played yet," Hugh noted. "Every week until now I have felt there were matchups we could take advantage of - and have taken advantage of. I feel that way this week as well, but not as much.
"Arkansas is very confident in what they do in their secondary. They are going to play a lot of man coverage and try to bring a lot pressure. They try to eliminate the time you have to work your one-on-ones, so you have to get open quickly. That's something we haven't really seen a lot of that this year. Do I think we can be successful? Yes, but we just haven't worked against that much in live situations."
Wallace told the media Wednesday that the WRs high five each other in the film room when they see a lot of man coverage. They feel they can beat anyone one-on-one. Freeze is pleased with that response from a confidence standpoint.
"We do preach to them we are going to win our one-on-ones, but against Arkansas it will be tougher. They have a really good secondary and scheme. They try to bring one more guy to the line than you can block and create pressure that way. They try to make you throw the ball quickly so we have to be very synchronized in what we are doing from a protection angle and a route angle," he continued. "It will be a major challenge for us, but we are looking forward to it."
Wallace will most likely be matched up against a player reputed to be the fastest player in the country, Hog CB Michael Grant.
"I'm sure they will match him with Mike a lot, or at least I would think that, so we will certainly find out who is the fastest. If he can run with my guy, he's plenty fast," Freeze stated.
The whole receiving corps has been producing effectively most of the season, but a player who sometimes gets lost in the shuffle is Hicks, who had a key TD catch versus Bama last weekend.
"I'm very pleased with Mike right now. He doesn't get a lot of the attention, but he's really come on lately. He does some things better than some of the other guys and has made some big catches for us," Hugh said. "He made a phenomenal catch against Alabama. I think his role will increase.
"In August, I wasn't as high on him as I am now. I wasn't sure if he had a spot back in August. Now I am sure. Maybe it shows I catch on slowly," Freeze smiled. "He's physical and big and doesn't get bumped around much. He makes plays with his strength, he runs good routes and he has very good hands. He also understands what he can and can't do.
"One thing that has made us somewhat successful is that we don't ask our guys to do things they won't be good at. We pick out our offensive package and plays and then we match our wideout personnel with those plays and with what they do best. I know where I want each guy on every play and we try to give them a legitimate shot to succeed by asking them to do things we know they can do. I think that breeds confidence too. They know they are being put into a position where they can succeed and that makes them confident."
After the Arkansas game, there will be plays that were made and plays that weren't. They will all be judged.
"We'll watch a play and one of them will say 'let's go to court!' And they vote. Mike Wallace is the main instigator. It's all in fun, but it also drives a point home - you have to be accountable and make plays," Freeze ended.
Court is in session. The honorable Hugh Freeze presiding.

Full wave modelling of lower hybrid current drive in tokamaks
Full wave calculations based on the use of eikonal trial functions that are locally solutions of the homogeneous problem are carried out for solving the lower hybrid (LH) current drive problem in tokamaks, when geometrical optics assumptions are no longer valid in the description of the wave dynamics. The LH power deposition profile as well as the non-inductive driven current are determined self-consistently with a two-dimensional relativistic Fokker-Planck solver. The first consistent simulations are performed for the high aspect ratio tokamak TRIAM-1M, when the toroidal upshift is bounded and insufficient to bridge the large spectral gap and cause wave damping.

Heart or panic?
I'm so scared, my chest just keeps having this weird kind of tight feeling. I'm trying to tell myself it's just panic attacks, but I just don't know anymore. It feels like my heart is too slow and or is going to stop. I'm more scared because Im a hypochondriac and read some things on heart attacks, months before the attack you can have insomnia and anxiety, I'm just so scared. Another symptom is your jaw hurting, which mine sometimes starts too, I'm scared.

Because of the centuries old Dutch tradition of reclaiming land and manipulating water supply I am not sure whether Het IJ is a lake or a river. Or whether in fact these days it can be regarded as an artificial body of water. It separates the north of the city from the south.

wanna do mine too?
I did the 13 cent trigger job.polished anything I could without removing parts--LOL
OK Guys
Here is what they call a 25 cent trigger job. My son a LEO and Glock armorer came over and helped me to dismantle my Glock 17. It is an easy job if you know how to turn a screw . I took a tube of Puma metal polish which was laying in the garage for 20 years and rubbed all the parts with a Qtip and a rag. The parts will be here Friday to update this trigger. Here is the list. Will see if it does the job. Right now the trigger reminds me of the cap gun I had when I was 10 years old . Don't get mad Glock guys .
Ghost 3.5lbtrigger connector
Wolff competition spring
Safety Plunger
wanna do mine too?
I did the 13 cent trigger job.polished anything I could without removing parts--LOL
I detail strip and polish the internal contacting metal parts on every Glock I purchase. I use Mother's metal polish and a Dremel with a soft felt polishing wheel. Then I install a Glock 3.5 connector (yes, the one that is now referred to as their 4.5 connector), a Wolf six competition trigger spring, and if a compact or subcompact, a full size trigger bar assembly. The trigger bar safety block also gets polished.

Check your power saving setup and see if it is set to lower screen resolution and brightness when running on either battery or A/C. Try resetting all the controls on power saver to default.

Why are sunscreens such a bumpy issue? Quite a few sunscreens cause acne because they contain comedogenic ingredients (certain waxes, oils, emulsifiers). Others have actives with large molecules that clog the follicle pores. This is why it's so important to read the product's literature and use non-comedogenic formulations.
Other sunscreens have active ingredients that can cause transient acne-like lesions. When these ingredients react with UV light, a chemical reaction occurs that makes the skin feel warm. This causes the pores to perspire more (which is compounded by the increased sweating from being outdoors). Together, these factors can result in pore occlusion or clogging and then a miliaria or heat bubbles that can look like acne—tiny, uniform-sized bumps that are itchy. Solution: stay cool and use products with inorganic (physical) sunscreen actives. Unless they are nano-sized, physical sunscreens function merely as a physical barrier.
All Armada Sun + Light Screens are non-comedogenic. And if you think you're prone to the acne-like lesions, try Armada Baby 50+ or Armada Post-Procedure Barrier Cream 50+ physical sunscreens. Their active ingredients are neither too big (which can clog the follicle) nor nano-sized (which can react with UV light to cause the skin-warming sensation)

Well, I did provide the source, and the article in question has been posted here recently in another thread. Excuse my for assuming certain things....it won't happen again.
The reason I posted that particular quote is because it seems to be in line with the terms laid out in Ichneumon's post....and although the term prediction wasn't used, I would think that "expectations" would be a distinction without a difference when used in context with a scientific theory. I assumed the point I was making was obvious, and I'm a little disappointed that you didn't comment on, or address that, in any way.
It didn't bother you that the conclusion was entirely different from the conclusion that you wanted us to draw? Was that perhaps why you chose that particular spot to terminate the quotation?

Private punters' broker, The Share Centre, issued a profit warning today after trading volumes failed to improve in the run-up to Christmas.
Chief executive Richard Stone said that after a strong start to 2014, investors got the jitters, meaning its profits will miss City forecasts this year.
"As we approach the year end, the second half has been disappointing as investor activity has remained subdued," he said.
"The group has not seen the usual seasonal increase in trading volumes in the fourth quarter." Stone was positive over 2015's prospects: "Looking ahead, whilst political uncertainty may increase ahead of the general election, regulatory changes to pensions, continued low interest rates and a return to real wage growth should help support saving and investment by personal investors, an increasing number of whom, we believe, will look to make those investments on a self-select basis."
The Share Centre has recently overhauled its management team with new hires including a director of customer experience.
Shares in the AIM-listed group tumbled almost 6% to 32p.Reuse content

Father and Son Enjoy a First Beer Together
Ok, comes a time in every parent's life (most parents anyway) where they sit down and enjoy a first beer with their son or daughter. In my case, my son Harrison and I were able to experience exactly that in the Irish Bar located in Santa Maria Novella in Florence, Italy.
Bear is 17 and a half and more than old enough to legally drink a beer here. So what a great opportunity to share something so sacred as a drink with my own son and to unwind and just talk with him in a way we rarely can back in the states.
We took a table outside that my friends who work the establishment cleared for us. The bartender Steve (an art student and all around great dude), brought us two Heineken's a piece. Setting them on the table, Bear grabbed his in his fist and took a big swig. I told him to go easy. The alcohol could go to his head. But he just shrugged his shoulders like, "No big deal, dad."
Suddenly I was reminded of that scene in the 80's comedy classic "Vacation" where Chevy Chase sits down to enjoy a first beer with his teenage son. The kid chugs the beer and crushes the can in his fist, making it plainly apparent it's obviously not his first. Now, I'm not condoning underage drinking here by any means. But what I'm talking about is a sacred rite of passage. In this case, I thought I was above being the forty something naive dad, and totally in tune with my son. But when he downed his beer like it was just another glass of Pepsi, I knew that this wasn't Bear's first beer by any means.
It made me feel strange, like I didn't know him as well as I should. However, we had one more together and we entered through that rite of passage together and we talked about life and dreams and adventures and ups and downs, and all those things that make up a life worth living.
Sharing your first beer with your son isn't all about beer. It's about love.
8 comments:
Such a precious moment to capture and relive for years to come, Vincent. Glad you enjoyed this bonding time with father/son.ReplyDelete
Well, um, I never got to share a first father/daughter beer with my dad. Nor would I want, for, to me, beer tastes too much like p***. Sorry, can't do it. Now, I'm 30 and that right of passage has passed *sigh* Oh well! Bring on the vodka! Glad you had some father/son time with him! And the view looks AWESOME!ReplyDelete
You will probably write more fantastic and phenomenal books,as you always do, while in Italy, but they will not be as great as the story that you are writing with your son. Enjoy!! They grow way too fast.ReplyDelete
At 20 I went away to college in August of that year and did not return until Thanksgiving. When I came in the front door my father was first to greet me. When I settled in he offered me a beer. I knew it was a milestone.ReplyDelete
Whether it was Bear's "first" bear or not, it was still the first with his Dad, and I think one beer that he will remember for a very long time.ReplyDelete
I hope you got a free beer for this blatant advertising of the pub! And you enjoyed the rest of your time in ItalyReplyDelete
gosh, what a beautiful post. i chuckled at the 'vacation' reference (one of my all-time fave comedies) and then had a tear in my eye. your writing is always brilliant.ReplyDelete

The bill would prioritize putting the low emission vehicles in low-income communities, which tend to be located near highways and ports. Dan Jacobson with Environment California.
"The largest amounts of air pollution and the largest amounts of global warming pollution come from some of our trucks and buses and freight trains," says Dan Jacobson with Environment California.
But, Governor Jerry Brown's budget proposes spending about one-third of a $200 million low carbon transportation fund on high-speed rail. He says that will help get more cars off the roads.
Adrian Martinez with Earth Justice says short term solutions like green buses and trucks should come first.
"We're kind of at a tipping point where the state really needs to invest in this technology to make sure that we can meet our climate and air quality goals."
About 25 percent of Brown's carbon reduction transportation proposal is directed at low-income communities.

K35 Art Gallery is now accepting the applications for the international artists' contest "STARTinART"17. The contest is held for the 4-th year, it aims to support young artists around the world at the art-market. This time "STARTinART" will take place during the Venice Biennale, so we offer our contestants to get the inspiration from Italian creativity in all its manifestations. The project's name CreativITA suggests to look at Italy at the new angle: to see modern country behind its traditional image, to capture the Italian sense of life and to digest it through the work of art. This year the contest STARTinART will be held with the support of the Italian consulate and the Italian Cultural institute. Applications for the contest are accepted till May, 30. After June 10, 2017 the judge panel of "STARTinART", will name the artists who will have the opportunity to participate in a group exhibition project "STARTinART"17 in the space of K35 Art Gallery from 13 July to 30 August 2017. Also, by the end of the group exhibition one author will be selected, whose work will be acquired by K35 Art Gallery, and with whom the Gallery will sign a contract for a exhibition in Moscow in 2018. For any additional information please contact: K35 Art Gallery +7499 6782307 email@example.com PARTICIPATE: https://form.jotformeu.com/70937011517351

This is a great addition to your morning coffee ritual or an afternoon pick me up. The Nespresso Aeroccino Plus Automatic Milk Frother is one of my favorite things I have purchased for my kitchen in a long time. It heats and foams the milk with one push of a button and is a cinch to clean. If you want an iced latte you skip the heat option. Never knew it was possible to make such a nice foamy latte at home!
It retails for $99.00 and is sold at Williams Sonoma and Bed Bath and Beyond you can also Buy it here along with a Espresso Maker from target.

Question about Akai PDP4206EA Television
I recently had a brown out here at home and even though my plasma TV
was connected to one of the those el cheapo 2000 joule surge protectors, it still fried the Main Board. The TV blanked out for a minute and
when it came to, the picture was blood red. I had troubleshooted and issue similar to this when I bout it and it turned out to be the Main Board (with the cpu). Apparently the flash had become corrupt and was providing incorrect information to the CPU. I suspect the Flash has become
corrupt again, but the backup I made using my Willem doesn't seem to
work now. I have tried a few backups that I have mand and Removing, programing, and resoldering this the flash is really
taxing on the PCB and chip and now it won't even turn on. I get a steady green
power light on the front of the TV, but hitting the power button or the
remote doesn't seem to put things in motion. I suspect the chip has given out and it won't boot the CPU.
Has anyone seen anything like this? Did I kill something else? Does anyone have a backup flash that they can email me for an Akai pdp4206ea? Does anyone have a replacement Main Board? Would you be willing to trade? I have a working video board for my Akai pdp4206ea (I bought it during troubleshooting a B/W issue with this same tv and it turned out that it wasn't the problem). I can overnight the part to you if you wish.

text: My favorite thing about the upcoming holidays used to be sparkly party dresses, but the last couple years I've really been leaning toward the (faux) fur coats & shrugs that go with them! The pics below embrace them both. Full of old Hollywood glamour & vintage charm, this fluffy gem can be worn over the most opulent dress you own one day and thrown over destructed jeans and a slouchy sweater the next. This versatility and, not to mention, warmth is what makes the fur jacket a staple in the most basic of wardrobes. Yoko Ono bought 80 of them for family gifts on Christmas Eve from Bergdorf's so you can justify just one. Or two. Always go faux.

Born into the digital world, M-Generation employees are wired for speed and constant connection. Connected to friends, family, and even strangers, they are masters of multitasking for immediate information gathering.
When a technology becomes obsolete, they rid themselves of it immediately for the latest upgrade. The replacement is always the newest, fastest, slimmest and most fashionable.
Even though Boomers and GenXers are technologically savvy, we are awed by the ease with which Millennials navigate the complex and ever changing digital terrain.
While you and I may surf You Tube occasionally, a Millennial will make and post his own movie in an hour and link it to everyone on his LinkedIn account.
Although we marvel at his skills, we also recognize the dark side of such technology and the impact that digital immediacy and constant connectivity can have on our employees and their audiences at large.
As Baby Boomers and GenXers, we're concerned that the Instantaneous, perpetual availability of friends and entertainment means that a M-Generation employee could be slacking off instead of working. We can't believe it's possible to be productive and wired-in at the same time.
How she can get any work done with the music playing constantly in her earphones? Has the informality of social media left Millennials unmindful to professional work place etiquette, appropriate styles of communications, and the boundaries between professional and personal information?
Lancaster and Stillman in the M-Factor book point out our concerns that the continual flow of digital content is eroding the M-generations' attention spans and impairing their ability to concentrate.
We're concerned that the Millennials have no criteria for distinguishing what is authoritative information from what is just one blogger's opinion. Do they even understand that this is an important distinction?
Observing these digital natives, we may overly focus on their devices and the strange behaviors they conjure -- heads buried in screens, fingers clicking out texts, and eyes darting around dozens of images per minute. These things, though, are outward expressions of what could be the defining personality of the Millennial generation -- the concept of continuous collaboration.
"The M- Factor" predicts that the Millennial generation will be known as the "Great Collaborators." And this can be a good thing.
For the M-Generation, work is usually a team sport and isolation from friends, family, and coworkers is the worst! Remember the TV-show Friends? The analogy here is most appropriate.
When you see them plugged into their devices, remember that they are probably using that device to connect with someone, to communicate something that matters to them, or to attend to a community of their own making, all of which may be business related.
Reconciling yourself to your M-Generation employee's constant immersion in the digital world may begin with this recognition. To prevent conflict and crisis from developing, develop a greater appreciation for your wired and constantly plugged in employee so that you can make his weird, wired ways work for you.
Find a project that is a perfect match for his interests and his technical know - how. Let him drive it as fast as he wants. You may pick up a few new tricks and learn something about social media yourself.
This also may result in a teachable moment if his enthusiasm, efficiency, and innovations collide with organizational traditions, protocols and habits. You can demonstrate how "faster is not always better".
Finally, it is important to develop the habit of assessing an M-Generation's work based on what she produces, not by how she spends her time. Between dramatic changes in educational paradigms and the rapid evolution of technology in the past 20 years, your new hire's ways of being productive may not bear any resemblance to your ways of being productive. The completed project, however, is what matters.
He may spend more time at the coffee shop than at his desk. Based solely on casual observation, you can't tell whether he is working or playing. You wonder about his work ethic when he outsources tasks and assignments to friends, family, or even large groups of online acquaintances.
As a supervisor, you could insist that he conform to a work style that looks more productive to you. However, a better alternative is to evaluate his performance based on criteria that you can both agree on, namely, well-defined outcomes. In other words, you must negotiate an arrangement that meets both parties' needs.
Let your M-Generation employee know what needs to be accomplished when, and do this in an upfront, direct, and clear way.
Then step back and let him tackle it in his own "unique and wired" way. You may be pleasantly surprised.

1. The members that has a unique character.
Shindong: Yesung-ssi memories is very good, everytime after schedule, he'll write something and doesn't allow anyone to see it. The words that he write are small as an ant. He wrote this, "I just borrowed Eunhyukkie money 3000won, I borrowed blabla 6000won…"
Eunhyuk: Hahahahaha
Shindong: He will also come to where you're and sit there for awhile and goes away
Eunhyuk: At night, when we're sleeping, there's someone who would suddenly touch your philtrum. (lol)
2. The member that had changed the most.
Jung: Then what about Heechul?
Shindong: Actually Heechul hyung is a person with strong individualism" but now.. he's the person who thinks that the group more than anything
Eunhyuk: Kinda awkward.
Shindong: Yup.
Eunhyuk: It's a situation like that he'll clearly be angry but he still stay there quietly, so I glance at him a few times, but suddenly he said, 'Come, let's fighting together~' -___-
3. The members who changed the most.
Shindong: Heechul
Eunhyuk: Eunhyuk
Jung: Eunhyuk-ssi, why did you say yourself?
Eunhyuk: I've become a little introvert, last time I'm more active during activities, slowly as I met more people, and do more activities, my image become fixed, after that I become quieter, character changed, so it's a pity >o<
4. Album
Jung: Almost all of SJ's album has never failed before right? (become well-known)
Shindong: Actually not much people knows our song that we debut with, so when we ask people if they know what's the song SJ debut with? Some will say "U", some will says "Sorry Sorry" but actually our debut song is "Twins" and the following song is "Way For Love", many teenagers like it a lot, after that is U, we got more well-known at that time, slowly with Sorry Sorry ^^
5. About feeling insecure.
Shindong: Actually, yes.. although we've been having activities together for so long, but right now (their age), because we have to go for army, one by one would go, and the number of members will become just few, and Super Junior's image will not like be a 'Ten people coming out together, looking very cool.' kind of that.. slowly, as the members become lesser, we'll feel worried too. ㅜ___ㅜ
6. Visual
Eunhyuk: Shindong hyung's stress is more bigger this time because he is the first person will singing the song.
Shindong: Once I've gotten the lyrics, I asked, what should I do? The staff members said, "Of course you have to sing" What should I do? thats why looks like I have to go on diet. Whatever it is, the first person who comes out will form a fixed image (for the group)
Eunhyuk: So thats why Siwon is responsible of the visuals.
7. Super Junior never separated !!
Shindong: Even until our age is forty, we must still doing activities as Super Junior! " Many people will said that idols would not last for long… with such like prejudice, we must be an idol for as long as we can. ^_____^

Uniworld River Queen Cruise - European Jewels: River Queen Cruise Review by rookie48
Overall Member Rating
Uniworld River Queen Cruise - European Jewels
Destination: Europe - River Cruise
Embarkation: Amsterdam
Not a single issue, not a single excuse, not a better team on a cruise than the River Queen for those 14 days. We can understand why the River Queen was ranked #1 recently. If Uniworld can find a way to bottle this winning formula on each and every cruise ship they More own.... The sky is the limit!
Someone told me many years ago - if you love your job, you will excel at it - I don't think there was a single Uniworld employee on the River Queen that didn't want to be there. Uniworld - the River Queen knocked this one out of the park!
I will be recommending the Uniworld Boutique River Cruises to anyone looking for a vacation idea. Less
