The World Baseball Classic in under way, though Team USA won't play its first game until Friday.
MLB Network is the exclusive English-language television home for all 39 games of this year's WBC. In addition to televising all 39 games, MLB Network will extensively cover the event in its studio programming, including "World Baseball Classic Today" and on-site coverage with "Intentional Talk" and "MLB Tonight" from AT&T Park in San Francisco, the site of the tournament's championship round.
MLB Network analysts Bill Ripken, Darryl Hamilton and Harold Reynolds were kind enough to analyze several of the WBC's most intriguing story lines:
What is your biggest concern about Team USA?
Ripken: "I don't think they really have one. The big thing for me is that it appears they're geared to have a team that has a set lineup. These guys should know their roles from the start of the World Baseball Classic, and it doesn't seem like there will be platoon situations other than the catching position with Joe Mauer and J.P. Arencibia. There are going to be at-bats for everyone, which is huge."
Hamilton: "Keeping everyone healthy when some players have declined to play because they're fearful of an injury. While I understand this issue, I know many players such as Brandon Phillips are excited to play and wear the red, white and blue."
Reynolds: "Starting pitching. Team USA doesn't have their big horses in their rotation, so that would be my cause for concern. I still think they can overcome it with their offense, but if I had to pick one part of the team that could hurt them, it would be starting pitching."

How far will Team USA advance?
Ripken: "I'm predicting them to win the whole thing. I think Team USA believes they have something to prove. They're going to be playing with an extra chip on their shoulder because they haven't won the first two World Baseball Classics."
Hamilton: "This team can advance to the championship round and win it all because of the talent that has committed to play on this year's squad. There is a ton of pressure on this team because of where baseball started and the fact that we feel we have the best players in the world. You can believe me when I say that the entire world understands that, and that's why they're all after Team USA."
Reynolds: "I see them playing in San Francisco, the site of the semifinals and championship round. I'm not sure if they'll win it all because of their pitching, but they should get there. If they don't, it will be a huge letdown."
Who is the most intriguing international player to watch?
Ripken: "Miguel Cabrera. If there's a team out there that allows Cabrera to beat them, they have to be examined because he was that good last year, and he's already shown during spring training that he's ready to go."
Hamilton: "It has to be Jose Dariel Abreu from Cuba. He's known as the 'Cuban Barry Bonds' and many people are wondering if he'll leave Cuba after the World Baseball Classic. I'm excited to see what he can do on this big stage."
Reynolds: "I want to see how Japan's Masahiro Tanaka pitches against some of the big MLB stars. To be honest, Tanaka has a lot of pressure on him based on what Daisuke Matsuzaka has done the last two tournaments. For example, if we see a Mashiro Tanaka-against-David Wright matchup in San Francisco, that would be awesome."

Which international team is the biggest threat to win the WBC?
Ripken: "I'm going with the Dominican Republic because of Jose Reyes, Robinson Cano and Hanley Ramirez. I think all three players are going to have monster MLB seasons, so why not start out strong at the World Baseball Classic? Even without Albert Pujols and David Ortiz, this lineup is sick—and I mean that in a good way."
Hamilton: "I always consider the Dominican Republic as the team that can win it all, but Cuba has something to prove. Similar to Team USA, Cuba has a lot of pressure to win this year. I truly believe that the passion these fans show for their countries show during the World Baseball Classic will carry many players to perform their best, and I believe Cuba is primed to make a deep run."
Reynolds: "You have to go with Japan since they're the two-time defending champion. I know they don't have any MLB players on the roster this time, but their pitching is always strong and tough to beat."

FLYING athlete Ben Foster pulled out all the stops this week to win the Stourbridge Stagger.
It signalled Foster's second major success this year, having already triumphed in the Birmingham Cross-Country League.
The Dudley Kingswinford runner didn't have matters all his own way and had to hold off a determined challenge from Halesowen AC's Tom Kenderdine who chased him all the way to line.
Foster clocked 67mins and 29secs for the 10 mile multi-terrain course to finish just seven seconds ahead of Kenderdine, while Stuart Hawkes of Kidderminster club Amazing Feet took third place in 68mins dead.
Dudley Kingswinford had plenty to celebrate as Helen Tromans proved the first veteran lady over 40 to finish, while team mate Carol Fisher captured the Over-50 prize.
Indeed, the DKs were out in force among the 400 -trong field where Rob Meredith came 10th in 71mins 3secs, which could have been better but for an untimely tumble which saw him lose several places.
Many Stagger regulars claimed conditions to be the worst they had known.

Destination Dish December Recipe: Classic North Indian Dal
Back in 2008, I did my first Indian wedding at Paradise Point for 250 guests. This unique lentil recipe was given to me by the mother of the bride. She came to the hotel before the wedding date just to teach me her recipe for North Indian dal, a warm, hearty dish with nutty, earthy, and slightly spicy flavor.
Dal also delivers all the health benefits of lentils: loads of fiber and protein that will leave you with lower cholesterol, a healthier heart and digestive system, and a full stomach but low calories. Despite only learning the lentil recipe a few days before, my team received a standing ovation when we served this dish on the bride and groom's big day, and we've been using this Indian dal recipe ever since.
Yields 4 Servings
- 1cup dal lentils
- 4 cups water
- ¾ teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1 ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ cup plain yogurt
- 3 tablespoon ghee
- 3 dried red Thai chilies
- 1teaspoon cumin seeds
- ¼ teaspoon methi seeds
- 1/8 teaspoon heeng
- 5 garlic cloves, sliced coarsely
- ½ lime, juiced
- 12 fresh coriander leaves
In a saucepot, wash dal in 3 to 4 changes of cold water. Add 4 cups of water and let sit for 20 minutes. Place dal and soaking water on medium-high heat, adding turmeric and salt, and bring to a boil. Turn heat down to medium and cook partially covered at a rolling boil till dal grains are soft to the center and appear shredded and fragmented, about 20-30 minutes. If needed, evaporate water until dal has consistency of a lentil soup. Grains should appear broken, but not entirely dissolved. Do not overcook the dal, which will lead to a pasty consistency.
Whisk yogurt in a bowl until smooth and stir in with dal until dissolved. Turn heat off. Place the ghee in a small sauté pan on medium high heat. Carefully add the red chilies, cumin seeds, methi and heeng till the cumin seeds darken. If the ghee is smoking hot, this will take only a few seconds. Quickly add the sliced garlic cloves and cook until they just begin to brown at the edges, then turn heat off.
Pour immediately into the dal and cover. The daal will sizzle when the garlic and seeds are added with the hot ghee. Let settle for a minute, then stir in the juice of a lime and salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve hot.
Be sure to visit the Destination Dish website to see more unique lentil recipes by other chefs, where the dishes are being served, and get to know the culinary talents behind Destination Hotels & Resorts' delicious fare.

Information for Faculty & Staff
Addressing Disruptive Behavior
Threatening or Alarming Behavior
Sometimes behavior is more than just thoughtless or rude. Signs of threatening/alarming behavior include:
- Saying or doing inappropriate things to test boundaries and/or to get a reaction.
- Using derogatory or profane language in an angry manner.
- Communicating in a hostile, aggressive, or violent manner.
- Escalating behavior (e.g., louder voice, faster speech, pacing).
- Making threats such as "If I don't pass this course, someone will pay," "I better graduate or else."
- Speaking incoherently with unconnected thoughts, garbled speech.
If the Student's Behavior is Alarming, Escalating, or If You or Others Feel Threatened
- Dial 911 immediately. Identify yourself and your location, describe the behavior, and request assistance.
- Inform your department chair if it was necessary to contact University Police.
- Notify the Millersville University Threat Assessment Team at (717) 871-7070 to file a report about an incident or situation of concern.
Faculty, do you have students who do the following in your classes?
- Arrive late?
- Leave early?
- IM their friends or talk on their cell phones?
- Eat or drink in class or lab?
- Talk with their classmates?
- Interrupt discussions or make inappropriate remarks?
- Refuse to follow class rules or your instructions?
Disruptive behavior in the classroom interferes with teaching and learning. Some faculty may be reluctant to confront such behavior because they do not know how to respond, worry about inflaming a difficult situation, or fear a lack of support from the University. However, such conduct should not be tolerated and may worsen if ignored.
Preventive Measures Faculty Can Take
- Include specific expectations for student behavior (e.g., no cell phones, no tardiness, etc.) during class introduction and in your syllabus.
- Confer with colleagues on ways they prevent or respond to disruptive behavior.
- Model the behavior you expect of students.
- Respond to disruptive behavior when it occurs. Ignoring it WILL NOT make it disappear.
Suggestions for Responding to Disruptive Behavior
Immediately ask the student to stop the behavior. Then speak with the student privately after class about his or her conduct.
When you talk privately with the student...
- Be specific about the behavior that is disruptive.
- Explain the effect the behavior has on the classroom environment.
- Address how you feel about their behavior, e.g., communicate your frustration.
- Allow the student to respond.
- Restate your expectations for the student's future behavior.
If Disruptive Behavior Continues
Some disruptive behavior simply reflects bad manners and a lack of consideration of others. If such conduct persists, inform the student you will report it to the Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs and the case will be treated as a violation of the University's Student Code of Conduct. Behaving in disruptive ways in class and failing to comply with your directives to stop are violations of University policy and will result in disciplinary action.
In other cases, disruptive behavior can be a result of psychological problems or other medical conditions. If you suspect the behavior with which you are dealing could be caused by such difficulties, you should contact the Counseling Center for advice on how to respond.
Your rights as a Faculty Member
You have the right to direct students to immediately cease disruptive classroom behavior. If it becomes necessary, you may also direct a student to leave your classroom for the rest of the class period. If they fail to comply with your directive to cease the disruptive behavior or leave the classroom, you should report their failure to do so to the Office of the Vice-President for Student Affairs.
If the student persists in behaving in a disruptively manner and ignores your directive to cease their behavior or to leave the classroom, you may call University Police and ask them to intervene and remove the student in the least disruptive manner possible from your classroom

Referral Info
As faculty and staff you may have students reveal emotional upset associated with very diverse concerns from relationship problems, to anxiety disorders, to suicidal thinking. At that time you are in the position to become a referral person. The following may be useful as you make a referral of a student to counseling.
Is this a life threatening situation? Was there a verbal or written threat or an attempt to hurt themselves or someone else?
Proceed with the "Guide to Making Counseling Referrals" while you remain with the student or delegate a responsible staff person to remain with the student while you make your crisis calls.
Proceed with the "Guide to Making Counseling Referrals."
If you would like a printed copy of the "Guide to Making a Counseling Referrals," please contact the Counseling Center at ext. 7821 and a copy will be sent to you.

The truck driver from Michigan had never traveled across the deadly stretch of U.S. 33 in Pendleton County.
Anthony Jones lost control of his tractor-trailer, after barreling into a treacherous turn called "Horseshoe Curve." The Kenworth truck swung across the highway, smashed through a guard rail and tumbled into a ravine. Jones, who sustained serious injuries, was flown by helicopter to a Morgantown hospital.
The Aug. 11 incident was the 21st tractor-trailer crash along a 4-mile stretch of U.S. 33 since 2009, according to a recent study by the West Virginia State Police. Four people have died in those wrecks.
"It's probably the most dangerous little stretch of roadway in West Virginia," said Delegate Isaac Sponaugle, D-Pendleton.
Pendleton County commissioners and school board members, along with a host of state lawmakers who represent the area, are intensifying a decades-old push to reconfigure the dangerous stretch of U.S. 33 that plunges down the Allegheny Front between Harman and Seneca Rocks.
Just days after the Sunday Gazette-Mail emailed the Division of Highways with questions about the tractor-trailer accidents, DOH officials last week announced plans to spend $120,000 on flashing signs that will warn truck drivers about the roadway.
Sponaugle said the signs would help reduce tractor-trailer wrecks, but he and other elected officials want a permanent fix. They want the DOH to reconfigure the highway, or build escape ramps for runaway trucks.
"The DOH has a duty to protect the public when they know there are highways that are deadly," Sponaugle said. "This needs attention immediately. It's not something to put on the back burner."
Warnings about U.S. 33 sounded decades ago
Perhaps no one has fought harder for safety upgrades along U.S. 33 than Rick Gillespie.
Gillespie, a former state trooper who now serves on the Pendleton County school board, first started raising awareness about the highway in 1982.
After responding to the scene of numerous accidents on the mountainous roadway, Gillespie started an investigation, finding that the U.S. 33 wrecks accounted for an extraordinary percentage of accidents and fatalities each year in Pendleton County.
Gillespie shared his study with the Division of Highways, asking for help to improve the road. He suggested three measures: a requirement that trucks stop at the top of Allegheny Mountain, at least two "sand traps" for runaway trucks and having the road resurfaced with skid-free pavement.
The DOH put up larger signs shortly thereafter but didn't take any other significant steps to make the highway safer at the time.
Two years later, though, The Charleston Gazette reported on the mountain highway, and then-Gov. Jay Rockefeller immediately ordered a mandatory stopping place for trucks at the top of the mountain, along with additional warning signs.
That didn't stop the tractor-trailer wrecks and fatalities, Gillespie said. He recalled the time when a runaway truck rounded "Dead Woman's Curve" — a blind curve also along the 4-mile stretch of U.S. 33 — and bounded into oncoming traffic, sawing a tourist's car in half and killing the driver instantly.
"Some of us have warned for years: Sooner or later, this will be a school bus, or one of the 200 tour buses that travel into Elkins each year, and we will witness multiple fatalities," Gillespie said.
GPS directing more truck traffic to highway
Sponaugle believes GPS devices are steering more truckers to U.S. 33. It's the shortest — but not the safest — route between Interstate 79 near Clarksburg and Interstate 81 near Harrisonburg, Virginia.
In most cases, it's been long-distance truckers from outside the region who crashed their rigs after cresting Allegheny Mountain while heading east on U.S. 33.
"They just follow their GPS tracking system," Sponaugle said. "They have no clue what they're getting into coming off the mountain. There's only one sign there before the big drop."
Gillespie said some truckers ignore the mandatory stopping point at the top of the mountain. By that time, their tractor-trailer's brakes are already overheated from the mountainous trip from Elkins.
After several steep grades down the Allegheny Front, there are two long straight-aways that fool truck drivers into thinking they've reached the bottom of the mountain.
Then they hit Dead Woman's Curve.
"To the right is a several-hundred foot drop off the side of the mountain," Gillespie said. "I have seen trucks plunge all the way down. They resemble an airplane crash."
Next up is Horseshoe Curve, where runaway trucks sometimes skid into the westbound lane of U.S. 33.
"They wear out their brakes, and their brakes give out, and you've got a runaway truck," Sponaugle said. "They jackknife into oncoming traffic."
Proposed netting would catch tractor-trailers
Politicians have demanded that the Division of Highway do something about U.S. 33.
Sens. Greg Tucker, D-Summers, and Clark Barnes, R-Randolph, have spoken to Highways officials. Gillespie and Pendleton County commissioners have fired off letters to Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin and Transportation Secretary Paul Mattox, and met with numerous DOH engineers.
Earlier this year, Sponaugle and Delegate Allen Evans, R-Grant, delivered a petition with more than 1,000 signatures, calling on the state to fix the highway.
About six years ago, the DOH planned to reconfigure the mountain highway descent but scrapped the project after construction companies submitted bids that exceeded available funds.
"We have never seen their plans," Gillespie said.
DOH spokeswoman Carrie Bly said last week that, in addition to the $120,000 signage upgrade, the agency is conducting a "feasibility study" to address the runaway truck problem at Allegheny Mountain.
"There is a study underway, and the sign project is in the design phase," Bly said in an email last week.
Gillespie has asked the Tomblin administration to direct the highway division to install a "CatchNet" system, which uses springs and other metal components that snag runaway tractor-trailers. They work like the nets on aircraft carriers that slow down fighter jets. Wyoming's highways division has installed the special nets, which cost about $300,000 each, on several mountainous highways.
The metal nets can save trucks that weigh up to 90,000 pounds traveling at 90 miles per hour. The devices can be put back in service just hours after an accident.
Gillespie, who serves as chairman of the Pendleton 911 Advisory Board, also wants the DOH to build a concrete wall that would stop runaway trucks from vaulting over the mountainside at Dead Woman's Curve.
"Enough studying," Gillespie said. "The time for action is now."

A SPECTACULAR stoppage time volley denied Swindon Supermarine a share of the points at Wimborne last night in Southern League Division One South & West.
The hosts' second-half substitute Matt Kemble pounced in added time to stun Marine, who deserved at least a point from their performance.
Supermarine started well but failed to find the target as Ash Edenborough dragged two early chances high and wide.
Chris Taylor fired just over from 30 yards before Supermarine had to make several desperate blocks to deny the home side.
Joey Tustain made an instant impact as a second-half substitute setting up Josh Parsons whose shot was saved from two yards.
Parsons went close again on the hour only for his shot to be deflected wide.
But it was Wimborne who finished the strongest and grabbed all the points thanks to Kemble's late wonderstrike.
Chippenham's away game against Hemel Hempstead Town last night was called off while in Hellenic League Division One West, Malmesbury Vics lost 1-0 at Clanfield.
Tonight New College Swindon host local rivals Purton and boss Rob Hopkins hopes to make the most of home advantage for a change.
"It's a local derby and it will be a good one I'm sure," he said.
"It tends to be a case of them winning at our place and us winning there when we play Purton, that's how it's been for the last three seasons.
"They are having a really good season and are pushing for a top four place, Chris (Pethick) has some good players who work well with him and were with us three or four years ago.
"They will want to get one over on us and we want to put Saturday to bed and bounce back with a result of our own."
Also in action tonight Shrivenham host Wantage Town in the Bluefin Sports Challenge Cup second round.

BRIAN Pritchard, Witton's manager, has said his side merited a reward for their performance at title-chasing Chorley last night, Tuesday.
Following a 1-0 defeat, sealed with 12 minutes left by Dale Whitham's headed goal, Albion remain four points above the Premier Division relegation zone with six matches to play.
"We're happy with how we played," said Pritchard.
"If an alien had watched the game, he would not have been able to tell which team was trying to go back to the top of the table.
"I felt we had enough chances, and played enough good football, to get something.
"In the end, we were undone by an excellent delivery from a set piece. Before that, we'd defended their dead balls pretty well.
"The lads were gutted to lose, but I've told them to take heart from how they did."
Witton are sixth-bottom, but have played the games in hand they had on rivals around them.
They visit Matlock Town this Saturday before a potentially decisive head-to-head with Frickley Athletic, who currently occupy the fourth relegation position, next Tuesday.
Home games with Trafford and Rushall Olympic, plus trips to Barwell and Ashton United, complete their run-in.

Last September the Center for Biological Diversity (CBD) filed a petition to protect the Clear Lake hitch (lavinia exilicauda chi) under both the federal and state Endangered Species Acts.
The hitch is an ancient fish in the minnow family found only in Clear Lake. They live in deep water most of the year, but every spring the adults work their way up the tributary creeks to spawn. They used to be extraordinarily abundant, forming a vital part of the ecosystem and an important food source for birds, wildlife and the indigenous people of the Clear Lake basin, but in recent years their population has declined precipitously, for reasons that seem to include streambed obstructions, predation by introduced fish, impaired water quality and food competition.
The millions of hitch that used to migrate up into all the lake's tributaries during their spawning runs are now reduced to a few thousand, found in significant numbers in only two streams. Their closest relative, the Clear Lake splittail, was driven to extinction by the middle 1970s and without strong proactive corrective measures, the hitch are vulnerable to the same fate.
CBD's petition proposes recovery measures such as removing or retrofitting barriers to fish migration, improving instream water flows, restoring fish to former spawning streams and reducing predation near the mouths of spawning streams. The filing could also provide leverage to improve the chances of getting funding for diverse conservation projects benefitting many native species and improving the general health of the lake as well.
Preliminary findings from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and California Department of Fish and Wildlife are still pending.
Lake County understanding of both the ecological and procedural considerations were greatly enriched by an informative public workshop held in Lakeport on Dec. 3. Under the joint sponsorship of the Chi Council for the Clear Lake Hitch, Lake County Fish and Wildlife Advisory Committee and University of California Cooperative Extension, the meeting featured authoritative presentations on the hitch and their ecosystem, on preservation efforts to date and on the federal listing process.
Several points were made very clear. First, the ecology of the lake is extremely complex and effects on the hitch ? which are also impacted by conditions in the tributary streams where their annual spawning runs take place ? are neither linear nor obvious. Second, the responsible agencies are overworked, understaffed and underfunded, so nothing is going to happen quickly. Third, although the consequences of listing are impossible to predict at this point, opportunities exist to use this process not only to benefit a single species but also to create conditions that will encourage the recovery of the entire ecosystem of Clear Lake and its watershed, including downstream portions in the heart of the Berryessa Snow Mountain region.
The ultimate result is up to the community: pulling together, we have a chance to create a mutually beneficial result and, in the process, to keep the Clear Lake hitch from spiraling down the dark one-way slide to extinction.

Are you the type of Thanksgiving cook (and/or eater) who expects to sit down to the same lineup of food from year to year or do you like to get a little bit crazy and try something completely new every time?
I've learned that there are definitely two distinct – and very personal – approaches to getting the holiday menu together. I recognize one, the tried-and-trues, as the keepers of family traditions; rational, organized, intelligent souls who keep things simple (doable) and predictable (foolproof). Which makes a lot of sense. How else to organize 10, 20 or more people around a dining table and keep the peace?
I count myself in the other, open-to-experiment camp. While I've never ditched the turkey altogether and made fish instead (as Debra did to much disappointment in one episode of Everybody Loves Raymond) I like to play with vegetables and entertain ideas on how to handle the turkey (shall we bone it, brine it, spice it, tie it up and smoke it?).
I'll be sharing a few of my ideas for vegetable side dishes over the next week, nothing too wild and crazy. But maybe something to mix up the usual suspects.
In the meantime, leave me a note and share your family favorites, old or new.

Palo Alto, Calif. -- HP announced that its technology is powering an interactive, hands-on experience for shoppers and visitors at the new McCormick World of Flavors store in Baltimore.
The 3,800-sq.-ft. store, located in the city's Inner Harbor, is part retail store and part tourist attraction, and is designed to educate visitors about McCormick and its products. It features five digital engagements, including the scent-based game "Guess That Spice," and a 28-ft. wall dedicated to McCormick's rich past, and the history of spices and flavors. It also offers "FlavorPrint," which allows consumers to determine their flavor profile, a cooking demonstration area where they can pick up culinary tips, and "Flavors in the Making," a series of entertaining videos they can view to see how herbs and spices like saffron and cinnamon go from plants around the world to the table.
McCormick worked with 5thScreen Digital Services — HP's integration partner for the project — to deploy 42-inch, touch-enabled HP digital signage displays and HP TouchSmart All-in-One PCs within the location.
The interactive displays also demonstrate ways a brand can reward customer loyalty or offer sales incentives. After they test their smelling capabilities with Guess That Spice, visitors are dispensed a discount coupon they can use in the store.
"Telling the story of how McCormick has grown from a spice company to a global flavor company was an exciting challenge," said Kathleen Haley, director, corporate brand and communications, McCormick. "HP touch displays enable us to tell our story to visitors in an immersive experience. 5thScreen Digital Services were integral partners in creating the content and look and feel of these environments, allowing customers to learn more and sample our brand in exciting new ways."

When Chris Knox, a top salesperson at Specialty Fleet Services, volunteers to go after the business of Armadillo Gas & Power, he decides to try a new approach. After all, no one else from SFS has succeeded with Dale Landry, Armadillo's CFO. Knox shows up at Landry's ranch, asks to photograph his beloved bull, presents the photo as a gift to Landry's wife, and engineers several other encounters before Landry learns that Knox is anything more than a charming young man. Not long after he reveals his position at SFS, Knox wins the account. Sales VP Jeremy Silva emails the sales team, praising Knox's maneuvers. But the human resources vice president thinks that Knox breached the company's ethics code. Does Knox deserve a reprimand? Kirk O. Hanson, the executive director of the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics, believes that Knox went astray not by trying to share a potential client's passion but by treating the Landrys as a means to an end - deceiving them and violating their personal space along the way. There's a big difference between deceiving competitors and deceiving customers, explain consultants Don Peppers and Martha Rogers. SFS needs to clarify this difference in its ethics code, apologize to Landry, and fire Silva, who demonstrated in hitting the "send" button that he does not understand the policies and behaviors that build shareholder value. James Borg, a business psychologist and author, argues that Knox didn't coerce Landry into buying SFS's services but instead simply got the CFO's attention and let his persuasive techniques do the rest. Whereas coercion and manipulation satisfy the needs of only one party, persuasion is about achieving a positive outcome all around - exactly what Knox accomplished. Armadillo got a superior product, and SFS won a new customer.
This HBR Case Study includes both the case and the commentary. For teaching purposes, this reprint is also available in two other versions: case study-only, reprint R0905X, and commentary-only, R0905Z.
In this fictional case study, a sales VP must decide whether a salesman's tactics to win a customer constitute an ethics breach. The reader will consider issues such as how to cultivate genuine common interests with prospective customers without intruding on their private lives, and how to use such tactics for long-term mutual benefit versus a short-term, one-time sale.

The International Dairy Foods Association (IDFA) joined a coalition of businesses, trade associations and other organizations to advocate for passage of a comprehensive immigration reform package.
Created in 1999, the Essential Worker Immigration Coalition is composed of business organizations from many industries that are concerned with the shortage of lesser-skilled and unskilled laborers, known as "essential workers." The coalition engages in the legislative process to inform Congress and shape immigration reform legislation.
Last summer, the Senate passed comprehensive immigration reform legislation, known as the Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration Modernization Act of 2013 (S.744) in a historic 68-to-32 vote. Also last year, the House Judiciary Committee developed four bills addressing immigration.
Earlier this year, House Republican leaders released a document titled "Standards for Immigration Reform" but later also indicated that it was unlikely the House would pass immigration legislation in 2014.
"IDFA joined the coalition because a stable and reliable workforce is imperative to the success of our member companies and the producers who provide a consistent supply of milk," said Ruth Saunders, IDFA vice president of policy and legislative affairs."It is important for IDFA to join with other American business groups, and the farm sector, to support passage of immigration reform and to have a unified position."
Other members of the coalition include the National Association of Manufacturers, the American Meat Institute, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and the National Council of Chain Restaurants.

Which Flavors Are Resting In the Ben & Jerry's Graveyard?
Do remember Makin' Whoopie Pie? You could buy that Ben & Jerry's flavor, which was chocolate ice cream augmented by marshmallows and devil's food cooks, 10 years ago. Unfortunately, the concoction didn't prove popular enough and the Vermont-based ice cream makers laid Makin' Whoopie Pie to rest in 2003. Literally.

Wow. If this is what version 4.0 of Olympus's "Meg" augmented reality system looks like, I would hate to see versions 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0. Though, of course, it's only a prototype, one which the Japanese optics maker has just revealed on its website.
That site is in Japanese, so here, courtesy of Slashgear, are the salient details:
Meg 4.0 (as you can probably make out in the picture), isn't a full set of glasses, so much as a rather large stem that you attach to your glasses, positioning the Meg's display just above your line of vision.
The display has a 320 x 240 pixel resolution, and it's attached via Bluetooth to a mobile phone or tablet you're carrying somewhere on your person.
The idea would be (and I'm just surmising now), you can run any augmented reality app you like on your phone - perhaps a mapping or points-of-interest app, or perhaps a gaming app - and the output from that app, appearing on that tiny screen, would provide an informative overlay to your normal vision.
With the processing, GPS and mobile data needs all taken care of by your phone or tablet, Meg 4.0 doesn't have to do much except maintain that Bluetooth connection and display a remote screen, meaning its battery life can be rather long: Olympus says you could use it for eight hours, provided you only use it in bursts of 15 seconds once every three minutes.
Oh it's also got its own accelerometers and, one presumes, a compass, so it knows which way your head is pointing. Otherwise it would just provide a view pointed in the direction of your phone, rather than your head. And you know where your phone might be, don't you? That's right, in the back pocket of your jeans. Ewww!
The system is quite different from the Glass technology Google announced a few weeks ago. Google's units are more self-contained (they don't rely on a phone or tablet), and as you can see Google uses fashion models to show them off, making the glasses themselves look much prettier than the Meg 4.0. Put a pair of Meg 4.0's on that handsome man, and I bet they would look much . . . the same as they do on the other man: chunky.
It's interesting, though, that Olympus is getting into the augmented reality game, because it suggests a background in miniature screen technology might be all that's required to produce augmented reality glasses.
Olympus is in the miniature screen business courtesy of its digital camera business, of course. Many of its cameras have electronic viewfinders, which, when you think about it, aren't all that dissimilar to augmented reality: they overlay information (f-stops, shutter speeds, zebra stripes etc) on top of a view of the world. That's the very definition of augmented reality, in fact.
Now, Olympus's electronic viewfinders are very good, but there's another Japanese manufacturer that makes even better ones: Sony.
Sony's EVF's are unbelievably sharp, to the point where it can be hard to tell whether you're looking at a screen or an actual, optical view of the world when you look into them. If Sony got into augmented reality, now that really could be a sight to see.

Hi everyone,
To keep it short, I lost a lot of weight that took me 12+ months and now I'm with my ideal/healthy weight. I feel perfectly fine most of the time, but since a few months I been having some really horrible episodes of binge eating, as in going to the closer 24/7 and just buy all the sweets and craving food that I can think of and eat it. Most of the days I just eat healthy and exercise as usual, but this episodes of binge eating happens a few times a week. And is not like I'm hungry, because obviously with the amount of food that I ate regularly is just enough, but this episodes could make me consume 2k+ calories in a few hours and still keep eating until I cannot eat more. I lost all the mindfulness, all the control that I have.
I've been thinking a lot lately about self-image, how I relate to food and other questions, trying different practical solutions (changing diet, hours, etc), but still happens. If funny, the last time that happen I was in a social meeting and my brain could not stop telling me to eat, could not even focus in the conversation that I was having.
Do you have any meditation that could help with that? Or any books/suttas/etc?

There is no set pre-law curriculum required for admission to law school. Instead, law school admissions committees advise prospective applicants to acquire a well-balanced liberal arts education and maintain a rigorous course load. Students should choose a major related to their interests, but they are also encouraged to take a wide range of academically challenging courses that will prepare them to think, work, and write well. A student considering law school should contact the pre-law advisor, Dr. Melissa Scheier, in the Political Science Department as soon as possible.
Medical and Dentistry
These are professions which need individuals with a diversity of educational backgrounds and a wide variety of talents and interests. Specific pre-medicine and pre-dentistry course requirements and other qualifications for enrollment may vary somewhat from one medical or dental school to another, but all recognize the desirability of a broad education: a good foundation in the natural sciences, highly developed communications skills, and a solid background in the social sciences and humanities. The majority of students entering medical or dental school hold the Bachelor's degree, but it is possible in some cases to complete the degree requirements after enrollment in the professional school. Most students major in one of the sciences, usually biology or chemistry. It is possible to major in non-science areas, completing the necessary science courses as electives. However, since so much of medicine is derived from a scientific basis, the student who majors in a non-science field and elects the minimum number of required science courses must excel to insure adequacy of preparation and favorable consideration of the application. The entrance tests require excellent verbal reasoning skills, so a good background in English is also advised. A student planning a career in medicine or dentistry should request an advisor from the Natural Sciences as early as possible.
Ministry (Pre-Seminary Curriculum)
No fixed pre-seminary curriculum is prescribed by the Association of Theological Schools. Persons who feel called to ministry should plan a strong liberal arts course of study that will prepare them for the theological seminaries. Special attention should be given to development of writing and speaking abilities and the study of foreign languages.
Greek may be chosen as the language required for the Foundations and Core requirement. Many academic majors can help the student develop skills, enhance learning abilities, and deepen one's understanding of the human situation in which ministry take place. A Religion major offers the best preparation and may be coupled with a second major. Some courses are especially helpful for student ministers: Youth Ministries, Intro to Christian Preaching, Church Music, Counseling and Psychotherapy. Students are encouraged to contact the Campus Minister or a professor in the Religion Department soon after arrival at Georgetown College for advice concerning such course work and opportunities to minister in area churches.
Most schools of pharmacy recommend that applicants obtain a strong background in social, behavioral, chemical, mathematical, and biological sciences as well as business. Many students that enter into a professional pharmacy program have a baccalaureate degree, although a prior degree is not required for admission. The student should consult the catalogs of pharmacy schools. The following courses are recommended: BIO 111, 212, 214, 311, 305, 306; CHE 111, 112, 113, 201, 202, 309, 310; ECO 223; MAT 111 and 125; PHY 211 and 212.
Physical Therapy
Increasingly, physical therapy (PT) degree programs are moving toward a doctorate degree as the minimal requirement for licensure and practice. Generally, these programs do not prescribe a specific undergraduate major, but rather require certain prerequisite courses to be taken before admission to the PT curriculum. Although these pre-professional courses vary somewhat from program to program, the basic requirements are similar. Students interested in this field should obtain the requirements of the specific PT program they wish to attend and are encouraged to have academic advisors from the Biological Sciences or Kinesiology and Health Studies Departments.
The minimum pre-professional requirements for physical therapy programs typically include:
- Two semesters of general biology, animal biology or zoology, with labs (BIO 111, 212, 305, 306, and 325 are recommended);
- 2 semesters of general chemistry with labs (CHE 111, 112, 113);
- 2 semesters of general physics with labs (PHY 211, 212).
Additional upper level courses in biology, chemistry, and/or physics are also recommended to increase the overall value of the application. Courses in general psychology (PSY 111), adolescence and adulthood (PSY 242) and child development (PSY 340), medical terminology (KHS 200), and statistics (MAT 111) are required by many institutions, including the University of Kentucky.
Students entering UK will now graduate with a DPT (Doctor of Physical Therapy) degree. A bachelor's degree is not required but recommended before application. Georgetown College students who wish to apply to the program after three years must carefully plan their programs in order to meet UK's general education requirements, and should have completed junior year requirements for a Georgetown College major.
Veterinary Medicine
Students interested in Veterinary Medicine should follow the recommendations for pre-medical and pre-dental students and consult the catalogs of veterinary colleges for specific course recommendations and other application requirements. Georgetown College offers all the prerequisites and recommended courses for veterinary programs except for animal nutrition, which may be taken as an online course.

As we approach the end of the second year of the Masters of the Universe Classics toy line, the Eternian Royal Family comes full circle with the 2011 Comic-Con exclusive Queen Marlena and Cringer 2-pack. While this new SDCC exclusive may look very familiar too many He-fans, the set is technically three figures in one as Marlena can be converted into her pre-Eternian alter-ego Captain Glenn.
Just like last years Comic-Con exclusive Orko/Adam set (read our review HERE), Marlena comes packaged in the same oversized blister card featuring the standard MOTUC design. Unlike the Orko/Adam set from last year, both Marlena and Cringer are fully visible in the package this time around and the Captain Glenn accessories are cleverly concealed by the lower insert as they are stored at the bottom of the plastic clamshell.
The layout on the back of the card is just like that of the standard MOTUC figures and features two different bios this time depending on which version of the figure you purchase.
The sculpting on both of Marlenas looks and Cringer are top notch thanks to the immensely-talented Four Horsemen. The details are rendered amazingly well and the quality control has been majorly bumped up for this set as there are absolutely no loose joints anywhere on Marlenas body allowing her to hold her poses very well. While there are some very minor paint flaws here and there, it is nothing drastic that would ruin the figure but the eyes on this figure are rather plain and lack color details in comparison to other female MOTUC figures in the line.
What makes this female MOTUC figure very unique is her switch-out dress and parts which allow collectors to display Marlena in her royal ensemble or in her astronaut suit when she crash landed on Eternia. The interlocking clasps at the back of both outfits is ingenious and very easy to use making her outfit swaps from Queen Marlena to Captain Glenn a cinch.
While Marlenas dress limits her leg movement significantly, Captain Glen can placed in endless different poses thanks to her all new female buck which the Four Horsemen have developed. This new buck will also be featured in several upcoming female figures such as Bubble Power She-Ra and the Sorceress.
The all new 2.0 female buck features:
-Ball-Socket Neck
-Ball-Socket Shoulders
-Swivel Biceps
-Hinged Elbows
-Swivel Waist

While Marlena features a plethora of articulation, the same cannot be said about Cringer which is more along the lines of a static figure which features only a swivel-jointed head and tail.
Mattel never tends to disappoint with their Comic-Con MOTUC exclusives and this years set is an absolute must-have for Masters of the Universe fans. This is the first time Mattel has released a Queen Marlena and Cringer action figures and by purchasing this exclusive set, you will be able to complete your very own Eternia royal family. While Queen Marlena and Cringer were exclusively sold to attendees at San Diego Comic-Con, an alternate Captain Glenn and Cringer pack was also sold through matt collector.com for $25 but is now completely sold out.

A new discussion board experience is coming this September!
After 10 years, we're upgrading our discussion board to a new modern system. The new forum will be easier to use, mobile-friendly and loaded with new features! We'll be taking all of the existing posts and users over to the new board, you won't have to do anything. If you have any questions, we've started a thread here to discuss.
Has anyone out there tried Tarceva? If so, what are the side effects?
Dear Susan-
I have a friend with pancreatic cancer who has done really well with Tarceva. There was also another person in the discussion group on this website who said he'd used Tarceva as well. I don't know the side effects, but there is a clinical trial for Avastin and Tarceva being offered at many sites in the US including the Mayo Clinics, but you can't have been on chemo previously. You should be able to find the trial at clincaltrials.gov.
-Caroline Stoufer
Hi Caroline,
Thanks for getting back to me. My husband is doing Avastin and Oxaliplatin and Gemcitabine, he had 30% shrinkage after five treatments. The doctor has mentioned Tarceva but I have read people have not had good results. What chemo are you doing right now? Are you doing a clinical trial? I have read about how well you have been doing. My husband has such a positive attitude and I know that has alot to do with how you feel. I look forward to talking again.
Val McCrea was on Tarceva and still may be, you can also check the profiles to see who has been on this before and who is currently taking it. I think there are several.
I am on Gemzar and Xeloda and it seems to be working quite well, but I have a scan next week, so we'll see.
I am approved to have Avastin added if necessary, so we may start that later, but in the mean time, the Xeloda seems to be working just fine. We don't really think the Gemzar is doing that much, but since this combo seems to be working, we're sticking with it.
I have to run. Gotta leave to go to chemo.
My husband was diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma in Sept. We have been on a roller coaster trying to come up with the best direction for treatment. Surgery at Cleveland Clinic was ruled out because of the size of the tumor (6cm.) and location. Right now, he has no symptoms and looks well. Are there many people who don't show symptoms like this and we're wondering how long he could go on like this?
Hi seasheller,
I would recommend you gather more opinions from other places in re: to surgery. We always request records of anything for our personal use including Ct scans. This allows us to mail copies as requested to other doctors without all the hassle. This site has answered many questions for us and it continues to be of great value to us. I hope it will do the same for you. It is wonderful to hear that your husband feels well.
Best to the both of you
Hello Seasheller,
My husband has been receiving treatment at the James Cancer Hospital, part of the OSU Medical Center in Columbus since June. They tried surgery but were unable to do the resection because the tumor was slightly too big. He has undergone 5 weeks of radiation therapy along with chemo and had brachytherapy 1 1/2 weeks ago. They are hoping they can do the surgery successfully by the first of the year if the brachytherapy has good results. I have been very happy with the care he has received there. Where I live, south of Cleveland ,everyone recommends going east to Pittsburgh or west to Columbus.I do think we will go over to Pittsburgh(UPMC) for a second opinion before he has the surgery again at Columbus. They seem to have one of the best programs in our area. You may want to check with them. My husband feels pretty good between treatments but has had several infections that have drained him. The treatments themselves have had few side effects.Good Luck!
Ditto marions' suggestion. I highly recommend second, third, and even fourth opinions. There is no established course of treatment here, and you're ultimately in control. It's best to have an abundance of information so you can make an informed decision. Some surgeons will shy away from operating, while others will proceed. It's worth looking into further. Your current surgeon may very well be correct, but something this rare warrants multiple consults.
My Husband has been on Tarceva for two months. Has had no new side effects.
He had 40 treatments of xl119 /5FU study first and was pretty exhausted going
into Tarceva. He had a CT scan today but we will not get the results until 11/22.
He was diganosed 10/10/05 with Cholangiocarcinoma Bile duct that spread to liver and then spread to the Lung in July 06 so had to come off the Clinical Study He had
5 to 10% shrinkage in May on the xl119 5FU but then found out it had spread to the lung in July o6.
We had a choice of Tarceva or Cisplatin and Gemcitabine, hoping for less
side effects we went with the Tarceva.
I was on a Phase II clinical trial for Tarceva (then known as OSI 774) from May 2002 through Nov 2003. The results were immediate. The first CT Scan showed several spots had disappeared and others had not increased. The Tarceva (one pill a day) stabilized the growth until Nov. the following year. Since this is a targeted drug (growth receptor blocker), side effects were minimal. I had upper body rash. Mild diarrhea, easily controlled by immodium, pretty significant dry eyes, and, uniquely a number of shallow but very painful ingrown toenails -- which went away two weeks after I stopped treatment. It was the "easiest" chemo I've been on.

Control 2009 Readers Choice Awards
Control Readers Report Their Solution Provider Preferences in More than 100 Process Automation Technology Categories
This year's Control Readers Choice Awards represent unprecedented levels of both breadth and detail.
The most ambitious effort to date, our 17th annual effort represents the expressed brand preferences of more than 1,000 process automation professionals. Those surveyed include the print magazine's U.S.-centric readership as well as subscribers to our increasingly international digital media outlets anchored at our website, ControlGlobal.com.
And, while the results certainly still reflect a North American bias (more than 90% of respondents hail from the 50 U.S.), the increased participation of industry professionals from outside the U.S. buoyed this year's standings of more than a few European and Asian players.
Increased participation also has allowed us to go more granular for the first time in the arena of systems capability. In years past, we compiled a single ranking of solution providers in the categories of "Process Automation Systems" and "Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC)." Most would agree (and more than one supplier has argued!) that this was a rather blunt category classification that belied the application-specific subtlety that the breadth of the process industry represents.
So, new this year, we've broken out systems capabilities into a new group of Readers Choice Awards dubbed "Best in Control." These rankings (see Table I) allowed users to register their preferences in each of five essential process control disciplines—continuous regulatory control, batch process automation, continuous sheet/web monitoring and control, safety/emergency shutdown and sequential logic control. Further, increased participation has allowed us to present the top solution providers in each of these process automation disciplines in each of 10 process industry verticals (see Table II). We think you'll agree that the results capture a more meaningful, contextually sensitive image of true industry sentiment.
In addition to these new system capabilities awards, our usual rankings in a wide range of instrumentation, control and infrastructure products are presented on the pages that follow. And, for those of you keeping track of methodology changes from last year, each survey respondent was allowed to identify up to three top providers in each category. These second- and third-place votes were weighted accordingly, but precluded the percentages of the category vote results that we reported in the past.
Our collective hats are off to all the solution providers that made this year's list. To be mentioned at all, each supplier has demonstrated to a significant, loyal contingent of users that they provide the very best technology in their respective domains. And that's no small feat at all.
The Software Suite
Closely complementing our Readers Choice Awards across the range of essential process automation disciplines are the Readers Choice Awards for specific software competencies.
First place in several of these categories goes to the integrated platform players such as Emerson, Honeywell and Rockwell. Through a combination of in-house development and acquisition, each of these companies has developed a broad competency in the core software categories.
But in the spirit of entrepreneurship, a number of smaller software publishers have maintained an independent leadership role, notably Expertune in the loop-tuning software category; Matrikon, for its competency in alarm management software; and EPLAN in design/documentation software. In the arena of calibration management software, competency is ascribed to hardware companies that produce field calibrators as well, with Fluke and Beamex rating second and third only to Emerson.
Wonderware, now part of Invensys, for many years represented the ultimate packaged software upstart. It retains its leadership position in the SCADA software space.
Elsewhere in the Control Room
Core competency in process control disciplines—and their software implementation—are well and good, but other control room technologies are needed to communicate process conditions with human operators effectively, and to ensure accurate data is acquired and that control is maintained. For this group of Readers Choice Awards winners, it's an acknowledged expertise in hardware design and manufacturing that typically carries the day.
Ametek's Panalarm division specializes in annunciators—all day long—and is once again recognized as the long-time leader in that display technology niche. For panel displays and operator interface terminals, Rockwell Automation gets the nod, although niche specialists Pro-face (including the former Xycom brand) and Red Lion also placed highly. And in the category of industrial computers, Advantech nosed out Rockwell and Siemens for top honors.
And Yokogawa, long respected for its excellence in instrumentation hardware, tops the charts in recorders (pun intended!) as well as loop controllers.
The Essential Infrastructure Players
While field devices and controllers perform the essential actions of the process control loop, an extensive communications infrastructure is needed to ensure that process data is reliably and seamlessly communicated throughout the modern process control system. This next group of Readers Choice Awards recognizes those essential infrastructure players—from wire to wireless and from terminal blocks to power supplies—who make sure measurement A gets to controller B and back to valve C.

The broad, long-term objective of this research is to establish primary preventive interventions to reduce human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) risk behavior among drug-using minority women. Recent studies indicate that high rates of sexual risk behavior occur within drug-using minority women's primary heterosexual relationships. Based on an integrated theory of HIV risk behavior, it is predicted that (a) interventions administered to couples rather than to women only, and (b) interventions that focus on relationship dynamics in the context of HIV risk, will result in a reduction of sexual and drug-related risk behavior among drug-using women and their primary partners. This four-year study employs a randomized clinical trial (RCT) 3-group design to test the efficacy of HIV intervention modality (couples versus women-only) and intervention content (relationship-focused versus standard HIV counseling and testing) on crack, cocaine and heroin (injected and noninjected) using women's sexual risk with primary partners.
A total of 390 women drug-users and their partners are recruited from the streets of Harlem and the South Bronx in New York City. Participants are randomly assigned to one of three HIV counseling and testing intervention conditions: (a) couples, relationship-focused; (b) women-only, relationship-focused; or, (c) NIDA women-only standard HIV-CT (control). All subjects are administered baseline, 3-month, and 9-month follow-up assessments using a combination of computer-assisted personal interview (CAPI) and computer-assisted self interview (CASI) techniques. In addition to sociodemographic characteristics, the interview will measure drug-use patterns, HIV risk behavior, and dyadic- and individual-level variables operationalized to test specific hypotheses of women's HIV risk behavior and behavior change. In addition to testing the effectiveness of the experimental interventions, data analyses will determine the theory-driven psychosocial mechanisms that act to mediate and moderate any observed association between intervention treatment and subsequent risk reduction. Incremental cost-effectiveness analyses will also be performed.
Results from this study will allow researchers to determine whether couple-based HIV counseling and testing is a more effective (and cost-effective) approach to HIV prevention than individual HIV counseling and testing. Analyses will further provide information on the specific components of couple-based interventions that were most effective in reducing HIV risk behavior, thereby contributing to theory development regarding intimate couples' HIV risk.
