V8 Supercars in China: What the key people are saying
The debut of the V8 Supercar Championship Series in Shanghai, China, next weekend has captured the imagination of a vast array of Australians. The following are some thoughts, in no particular order, from various drivers, team owners, team managers and those who will form "The Show" in Shanghai.
Tony Cochrane -- Chairman, AVESCO
"In the same way that the street circuit in Adelaide took the V8 Supercar Championship Series to a new level seven years ago, our expansion into the exciting market of China will yet again raise the bar and expectations of the world's greatest touring car category."
Wayne Cattach -- Chief Executive Officer, AVESCO
"It is the largest Chinese take-away in Australian history! Seriously, it is a very ambitious project but its very execution opens up the world for our sport. Now we are geared up and ready to travel to any part of the world. For the sport this is an enormous step."
Mark Skaife -- Team Owner/Driver, Holden Racing Team
"This is a brilliant opportunity for this category to showcase itself on an international stage.
"I've been to the circuit and the facilities are simply unbelievable -- it's definitely a pointer to the direction we want our series to follow. We inspected the track and the mix of high-speed straights followed by extremely tight corners is going to create great racing.
"We are going to find out which teams are the most technically skilled at setting up a racing car, because none of us has driven the track before and it will certainly be a challenge for drivers and engineers to get their heads around."
Russell Ingall -- Driver, Stone Brothers Racing
"The logistics of putting this first race together have been incredible. The language barrier, different food and traffic conditions are three of the main factors we are going to have to deal with on a daily basis -- and it won't be easy.
"If there is one thing SBR is good at, it is being prepared and I think that's why we head to China with a very good chance.
"A lot of companies are taking corporate groups, many fans have joined organised tours while other have made their own arrangements.
"I have not been to the circuit yet, but from the images I have seen and the stories I have been told, it is mind blowing.
"To win the first ever V8 Supercar race in China would be a pretty cool thing to achieve. I will be giving it a bloody good try."
Rick Kelly -- Driver, Team Buick
"Whoever adapts best to the unique corners of the Shanghai circuit is going to be up the front. Compared with what we are used to in Australia, the corners are longer and require longer power-down while turning. Our corners tend to be more sharp and violent.
"The whole week is going to be very busy for me, as I will be representing Buick both on and off the track. It is a great honour to fly the flag for GM's biggest brand in China -- I only hope we can deliver the right result for them."
Craig Gore - Team Owner, WPS Racing
"It's going to be a very tough proposition on everyone when we head to China for the first time. Just like it is in business, everyone must firstly appreciate how the Chinese people apply themselves, which really does require a thorough knowledge of the culture.
"It's a great thing for the Series and makes sense on many fronts. There's been a lot of talk of further extending the Series within Asia and that's sure to be welcome news for Ford and Holden who boast big export markets throughout the region.
"There are bound to be teething problems but we just need to hang in there. Logistically being in an overseas country presents its own set of problems, but I think what the WPS Racing team was able to achieve recently in New Zealand shows that where there's a will there's a way and as a team we're excited to be a part of that."
Marcos Ambrose -- Driver, Stone Brothers Racing (Defending Champion)
"I have been pretty excited about the China round since it was first announced. A lot of people have worked enormously hard to make this happen and hopefully it will be a great success for everyone involved.
"There is a lot at stake for a lot of people across a whole range of areas -- including myself.
China could turn out to be the real wildcard of this championship.
"I desperately want to win my third consecutive Championship this season and I don't think I will be able to do that without a bag of points from next weekend.
"The track looks very interesting and is no doubt going to be fast. The event will be an adventure for everyone at SBR, but it is going to be important to keep our eye on the ball with so many distractions."
Craig Lowndes -- Driver, Team Betta Electrical
"I can't wait to see the response we get from the Chinese when we roll out the car with 888 on it. I really hope we can uphold their traditions as the number 8 is almost sacred in Asia.
"It is always interesting when you go to a circuit that no one in the field has been to before as it comes down to driver input instead of past results."
Ross Stone -- Team Owner, Stone Brothers Racing
"This will be the next step for V8 Supercar racing. It has taken an extra year to get there, but a lot of people will be rewarded for all their efforts next week.
"Logistically the event has been very challenging and I am sure there is going to be plenty of things we will need to sort out when we get on the ground.
"For many of our crew, especially the younger guys, this will be their first race outside of Australia and New Zealand. For some it will be their first travel outside of those two countries period.
"This experience can only be good for them and hopefully our performance on the track will make it even more memorable."
Steven Richards -- Driver, Castrol Team Perkins Racing
"This is a great test for the V8 Supercar brand. It will be exciting to see how Chinese Motorsport fans like our dynamic brand of Motorsport.
"The fact they can come and say 'Wu an' to any of our drivers and teams and grab a signature is also going to be fantastic for the fans to feel a part of the whole event.
"I am also looking forward to seeing how the whole circus adapts to our first flyaway race meeting. I'm also excited by competing on one of the worlds most advanced Motorsport venues."
Brad Jones -- Driver, Team BOC
"Having raced in Macau back in my Super Tourer days, I've always been interested in how China would develop a motorsport industry. I've been keeping an eye on the developments there for a few years and it's rewarding to be finally competing there.
"I think all V8 Supercar drivers also feel very privileged to be racing on what has been said to be the best motorsport facility in the world."
Paul Morris -- Driver, Sirromet Wines
"The V8s going to China has opened up a lot of business opportunities for Sirromet. It's a family business so I'm involved and all of us see the potential of what can be achieved from the week in Shanghai.
"Our wines have won medals in Japan, and this trip is another way to increase Sirromet's profile and exposure in overseas markets. I'm told the Chinese like sweet, soft, easy-to-drink wines and we've created a special red blend for them to try.
"This visit to China will help grow wine sales and exports, plus get more tourists to both the winery and the (Holden Performance) Driving Centre. We've organised for various local wine and tourism people to be our guests at the track -- it's going to be something different for them, as it will be for all of us going to China.
"A lot of business gets done at major sporting events these days, and I'm sure the people we're taking to the V8s (in Shanghai) will be impressed with the whole show and the atmosphere.
"I've raced in America and Macau before, but this is a whole new ball game because most of the drivers and teams don't know what to expect.
"There will probably be some 'teething' problems, but that's to be expected with anything new -- everyone just has to roll with it and get on with the job.
"The fact none of us have raced at the track before means everyone is on a level playing field. There could be some surprise results. We've been carrying good car speed all season so we expect to be competitive."
Todd Kelly -- Driver, Holden Racing Team
"It's a pretty interesting time for V8 Supercars -- this is the big time and if we can make it work, who knows what will happen? Maybe there will be a lot more of these international rounds, maybe we will be in the Middle East as well the following year, that's what everyone seems to be talking about.
"I've just been looking at the track layout with my engineers and the nature and style of the place is completely different to anything we've ever raced in Australia. We've been looking at these long straights and fast, sweeping corners and trying to find comparable sections of track in Australia so we can get a head-start on setting up the car. We can't find too many!
"Teams that have a good handle on their cars and the ability to think outside the square are the ones that are going to do well there."
Roland Dane -- Team Owner, Team Betta Electrical
"The name Triple Eight was derived from the timely success achieved by our business operations in Asia over the past twenty years.
"It is particularly exciting for us to be returning to a region where we have enjoyed a lot of business success and is also the birthplace of the name Triple Eight."
Greg Murphy -- Driver, Super Cheap Auto Racing
"How could you not be excited by going to Shanghai, it's the new frontier and an exciting step forward for the V8 Supercar Series.
"The track looks spectacular; it has corners that were obviously not designed for V8 Supercars, so it is going to be a huge technical challenge, but that will be the same for everyone else.
"I imagine there are lots of teams that have been using their contacts around the world to get as much information as possible on the circuit, but until we actually get on-track I don't know if any of that is going to be much help. In fact, as it is so new we couldn't be on any more of a level playing field.
"I've done plenty of laps there on my Playstation, although I don't think that's going to be much help."
Mark Larkham -- Team Owner, Larkham-Orrcon Racing
"The racing at Shanghai should provide a very real opportunity for V8 Supercars to promote the claim of being the worlds' premier touring car championship.
"Whilst the Chinese have enjoyed the spectacle and technical excellence of Formula One, I trust the V8 Supercars will provide a closeness and depth of competition that only Australia and New Zealand have been lucky enough to enjoy.
"I am sure the tough V8 rumble, belching flames and constant contact between the cars will have the Chinese crowd in love with the Aussie V8's.
"From an entertainment and corporate spectacle, if the V8 Supercar teams and drivers can put on a memorable performance, which they are very capable of, I believe this may open further opportunity in this dynamic part of the World.
"Who knows what's possible? Other international events, sponsorship, investment in teams...perhaps ultimately a Chinese supported Team or Driver?
"I can't wait to hear the sweet sound of a V8 Supercar cutting its way between those huge grandstands at full speed."
"The logistics alone of moving everything offshore for such an event really does test everyone's capabilities; it's such a mammoth task for all concerned.
"I think everyone should take their hat off to AVESCO and the promoters for making such an event possible, it will be great for the sport and certainly showcase the V8 Supercar Championship Series to the world.
"I can't wait to see the world class circuit and facilities provided at the Shanghai International Circuit, everyone tells me you really have to see it to totally appreciate the entire complex.
"I'm also very much looking forward to experiencing the total Chinese experience, their food, culture and the scenery, from what I have been told they are very hospitable people.
"Although the series has been conducted in New Zealand over previous years, it bears no resemblance to what is required to conduct an event such as this in Mainland China and I believe the world wide television audience is likely to be around 600 million viewers, it truly is amazing to consider the series has come this far in such a short period of time."
Steven Ellery -- Driver, Team Betta Electrical
"I am heading to Shanghai a few day's earlier to help promote the race in China and will use some of that time to become accustomed to the local climate and if necessary, do some additional training.
"Like everyone else I am really excited to be racing on a track that no one has any data on. I was the unknown quantity when I started with Team Betta Electrical but they now know what I am capable of and we are starting to gel as a team.
"The challenge for us in China will be to start the weekend with the car setup well so we can focus on overcoming new track challenges."
Jason Bargwanna -- Driver, Larkham-Orrcon Racing
"It is the beginning of a new era in the V8 Supercar Championship.
"We have seen Champ Car successfully expand away from their traditional base in America with events held in Australia, Mexico and Korea, now it is Australia's turn to take the next step and build on our most successful domestic motor racing Championship.
"Competing in China allows our Championship to expand on our already well supported International base and provides the Championship with a fair bit of International recognition.
"It should also make the rest of the world sit up and take notice of what real touring car racing is all about."
Simon Wills -- Driver, Team Dynamik
"Shanghai will be the 10th country and ninth F1 track where I've raced since starting my racing career. I'm looking forward to this one the most as the track looks mega and with a virgin V8 Supercar crowd to boot it's going to be one hell of a dog fight."
Matthew White -- Driver, Britek Motorsport
"I'm really excited about China for a few reasons. Everyone's in the same boat at Shanghai, not having any data or track knowledge, so that will even things up a bit for us. Also, we get to play the tourist which is rare. Some of the team is taking a tour of the Fujitsu factory on Thursday and my wife and I have a week's holiday after the race to explore some of China's beauty and culture, around Shanghai and Beijing, first hand."
Max Wilson -- Driver, WOW Racing
"I, like many of my colleagues have never been to China, and I really don't know what to expect, it's a totally different culture from the west but I hope we can build up a fan base there and widen the appeal of the V8's to many more countries around the world, maybe this is the start of even greater things ahead for both the series and all concerned.
"I am so looking forward to seeing the circuit, I have heard so much about it and people keep saying to me that you can't explain what it is like you just have to be there to experience it in total.
"It will be a totally new experience for everybody; least of all the fans and I hope a lot of the Aussie fans can follow us over to experience the event with us.
"I am going to try and see some of the sights whilst I'm there, although we will be on limited time, there should be occasions when I can sneak a peak here and there.
"It certainly is great for the sport, and should really put the series on the world motor racing map, you know there is nothing else in the world to match this series and that's what makes it so special."
Kieran Wills -- Team Owner, Team Dynamik
"This is an exciting, challenging time for our series and teams alike. We hope to blow away the Chinese spectators with our world class event."
John Panozzo -- Team Manager, Super Cheap Auto Racing
"The New Zealand races have given the teams' good grounding so it has been a case of adapting what we have learned there to the 'fly away' situation we have with China.
"Not taking our truck means we have had to make use of all the available space, take only what we need and therefore leave what we don't really need at home.
"The logistics of 'picking up' everything we require to compete and transporting it all to Shanghai are quite incredible, but it has all been easier than what we anticipated. For a first up effort, things have gone exceptionally well and there is not one thing that gives me any concerns."
Adam Laws -- Team Manager, Britek Motorsport
"It's amazing how much the V8 Supercar Championship Series has grown since its inception in the early 90's. Back then it was a challenge to send 12 cars to Tasmania, now we have 32 cars and the associated equipment being flown to race in Shanghai, China.
"In Fujitsu Racing's first year we've had many challenges to overcome and I expected the logistics of this event to be enormous. However, cramming all the gear into an air-freight container that's one quarter of the size of the semi-trailer we normally use has been much easier than anticipated.
"My next challenge will be to herd a group of Aussie and Kiwi team members through the streets of Shanghai looking for something to eat. Somehow, I think they might prefer if we followed in the footsteps of Shane Warne - who packed his own baked beans for the Aussie Cricket Team's tour of India."
Anthony Tratt -- Driver, Toll Racing
"This trip to China highlights the popularity of the V8 Supercar category not only in our country but to the rest of the world who are now paying to have our circus on their shores.
"I have seen quite a lot of video footage of the circuit and its surrounds and I think we all should take our hats off to the Chinese government, the Chinese community, and to all concerned in making it possible for more people to experience the thrills and spills of our Australian made V8 Supercar category."
Garth Tander -- Driver, Holden Special Vehicles Dealer Team
"It is at times like these that the Playstation comes in very handy! We only learned on Sunday the track configuration that we will be using in Shanghai, and while it is shorter than the full F1 circuit, it still looks very good and throws up all the challenges that we thought the Shanghai circuit would.
"Being designed for F1, the corners have a slow-fast combination that is going to require of plenty of mechanical grip, as we don't have the aero down force that F1 cars have. It is going to be interesting to see how much grip we have in the fast corners. But I can't wait to get out there."
Jason Bright -- Driver, Ford Performance Racing
"Having raced extensively overseas in the past, I have always wanted to expand upon my international racing career, that is, to compete in other countries and circuits, as you always learn so much from this.
"I see our visit to China next week as no exception, as it will broaden all of our perspectives as racing drivers and I am sure that our new Chinese fans are going to love what they see.
"You realise that we have developed something very special with V8 Supercars when we have been asked to compete at such an impressive venue, in such a far away land. Get ready China - we plan to put on an unforgettable show."
Chris Jewell -- General Manager, Britek Motorsport
"This event is an important milestone for V8 Supercar Racing and whilst the original NZ meeting was the category's first international foray, it's fair to say the magnitude of the China event is so much more comprehensive from a logistics, planning and cultural perspective.
"I'm sure it will be a real eye-opener for the Chinese public and will provide a perfect test-case as to the merit of V8 Supercar further expanding its international horizons."
Kevin Murphy -- Team Owner, Dodo Racing
"It's been quite a bit of work for our team to get prepared for the trip to China. In terms of cars and their setup, it's a case of suck it and see.
"All we can do is compare the Shanghai circuit with tracks in Australia that have similar characteristics and apply setups to the cars that reflect that. Then we can fine tune from there.
"Our team isn't as large as some of the others in V8 Supercar racing, so we will have our full number of staff on hand for the weekend, whereby some others will be forced to leave some at home."
Jason Richards -- Driver, Dodo Racing
"Looking at the circuit, I think slipstreaming will be more of a factor at Shanghai than at most other tracks we visit. The cars will be struggling to cut the air on the 1.2-kilometre straight, so I think you'll find plenty of chances for passing.
"I've been doing my research watching some on-board camera footage from Michael Schumacher's Ferrari at the Grand Prix there last year."
Cameron McConville -- Driver, Garry Rogers Motorsport
"I'm actually going to be one of the first drivers to head to China. I'm going early on Monday to take part in all of the pre-race promotional activities as well as help open a Valvoline centre on the Thursday.
"It's a busy schedule but it's a great opportunity to actually see some of the city. Usually we go to a race meeting and don't see anything other than the racetrack, the airport and the hotel, so to be a tourist for a few days will be a welcome change."
Andrew Jones -- Driver, Garry Rogers Motorsport
"We've been having a look at the circuit map at our workshop in the last week or so and it's got a bit of everything. There's not really a track in Australia you could compare it to.
"It looks very much like it's been designed for open-wheeler cars, so it will be interesting to see how our big cars go there. The long radius corners will give the tyres a real caning."
Greg Ritter -- Driver, Ford Performance Racing
"If someone told me ten years ago that I would be racing in Shanghai in a V8 Supercar, I would have told them that they were dreaming. A race like this transforms us into truly international racers and this is a great thing.
"Any race driver will tell you that there are circuits that they have always wanted to compete at. The Shanghai International Circuit is without a doubt one of those.
"It would have to be the most exciting motor racing circuit in the world without any shadow of a doubt and I am gearing up for a truly incredible experience. A strong result at this race would not only be historic, it would be a privilege."

It is delightful that the Chun-Tsung Program takes root in Shanghai Jiaotong University. Mr. Lee is always a respected scientist for me. I had several communications and talks with him. He is a rigorous scientist, charming artist and broad-minded educator. The Tsung-Dao Lee Library which is under construction provides a bridge between Mr. Lee and Shanghai Jiao Tong University, while the Chun-Tsung Program substantially tightens the emotional connection. In memory of Ms. Hui-Chun Chin, his wife, Mr. Lee set up the Chun-Tsung Program, so the program bears the expectation from the couple of the country's innovative talent cultivation and scientific career. As you are the students who take part in the Chun-Tsung Program, I have two expectations for you:
Firstly, please start from cultivating your moral characters and pursuing the truth.
On the way to scientific research, there are full of thistles and thorns as well as temptations. As I said on the opening ceremony for new arrivals, "start from cultivating your moral characters, get progress by cultivating your mind and base on cultivating your knowledge". As a student of Shanghai Jiaotong University, you should cultivate your moral characters before your knowledge. For the students who dedicate themselves to scientific research, the ancient saying that "One can't have lofty aspirations without a peaceful state of mind" should be always remembered. I hope that while you have lofty aspirations, more attentions should be paid to the foster of virtue and the shape of inherent personality. Seeking truth in the process of cultivating your own moral character and stick to scientific research.
Secondly, take pleasure in hardship and be insistent and tough.
Genuine knowledge comes from practice while tempering is the best teacher for life. The pursuing of scientific spirits requires not only the love of truth, but also the ability to endure loneliness and persevere. Heavy fruits wait for those tough-minded people who are able to endure long term obscurity.
My fellow students, universities are the Holy Land where the young start, create and realize their dreams. I hope that you will achieve your scientific dream and life goal and become innovative leaders.

I saw this blog post referencing an article I wrote for the Raleigh News & Observer.
I really just wanted to make 3 comments on it:
1) The blog post really goes where I never ever expected it to go, which is why I had to share it.
2) The author uses my first name. It appears only women are prone to this infantilizing treatment. Yay.
3) It would have been really cool to have made this one research paper part of a longer story explaining epigenetics. I think a good percentage of newspaper readers (sadly not 100…) get genetics, and epigenetics would blow many of their socks off. If they are above a certain age (not very old!) they certainly wouldn't have learned it in high school and perhaps not even in college.

An aviation Accident is an occurrence associated with the operation of an aircraft which takes place between the time any person boards the aircraft with the intention of flight and all such persons have disembarked, in which a person is fatally or seriously injured, the aircraft sustains damage or structural failure and/or the aircraft is missing or is completely inaccessible.
Brooklandville is an unincorporated community in Baltimore County, Maryland, United States near where the Jones Falls Expressway meets the Baltimore Beltway. The general area is a part of Lutherville, and some addresses in the area are considered to be in Lutherville, though Brooklandville has a postal zone and post office of its own. Some notable landmarks in the area, including the Park School of Baltimore and St. Paul's Schools are technically within Brooklandville, as noted by their mailing addresses. However, addresses within the main office complex in the area, Green Spring Station, are considered to be within Lutherville. The Green Spring Station complex is located at the intersection of Falls and Joppa Roads, near the interchange of I-695 and the Jones Falls Expressway, and is also bordered by Greenspring Valley Road, though the segment of this road that runs through the complex is identified as Station Drive. Seminary Avenue also begins very close to the location. The complex has offices for several large companies, as well as some upscale shops, restaurants, banks, and the largest indoor tennis facility in the Mid-Atlantic. The most notable company with offices at Green Spring Station is Johns Hopkins Hospital, which has a satellite branch that takes up a large portion of the grounds, and has been operating this location since 1994.

COPENHAGEN - Danish industrial conglomerate A.P. Moller-Maersk A/S said Wednesday its oil and gas drilling services arm Maersk Drilling has received a two-year contract for the use of a new ultra harsh environment jackup rig for a drilling project in the Norwegian North Sea.
The order, which comes from Norwegian oil company Statoil ASA, has a value of around $284 million, Maersk said in a statement.
The jackup rig is currently being used by U.S. oil major ConocoPhillips, and the new contract will commence in direct continuation of the present contract, which ends in either the second quarter of 2014 or the second quarter of 2015.
"This contract improves our forward contract coverage even further providing us with high earnings visibility. This forms a solid basis for further growth, thus supporting our objective of becoming a significant and stable contributor to A.P. Moller-Maersk's profit," said Maersk Drilling Chief Executive Claus Hemmingsen.
Maersk Drilling currently operates six jackup rigs in the Norwegian North sea, and a further three have been ordered and are currently being built.
The contract with Statoil has a duration of two years and includes an option for one additional year.

- A conceptual framework to address barriers to Knowledge Management in
project-based organizations
- Authors: Peyman Akhavan et al
Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 2/3, August 2014.
Purpose Purpose-The purpose of this study is to identify, classify, and prioritize knowledge management (KM) barriers in Iran project-based organization (PBO) and present conceptual framework for improving it. Design/methodology/approach After studying previous literature on the topic, initial barriers of knowledge management in project based organizations were extracted. Then, a list of barriers of knowledge management in the above mentioned organizations was finalized by interviewing experts in knowledge management. After that, the barriers were prioritized using a questionnaire. Finally, a conceptual framework for improving knowledge management barriers was presented. Findings In this article, barriers of knowledge management in project based organizations have been divided into five categories: individual, organizational, technological, contextual, and inter-project. Then a three-layered conceptual framework was presented for improving the barriers of knowledge management in project-based organizations. Practical implications The prepared and prioritized list of barriers of knowledge management in project based organizations is a stepping stone and a guideline to managers in project based organizations in order to be able to identify barriers of knowledge management in their own organizations and resolve them, and improve knowledge management in their organizations. It also serves as a useful base for researchers to expand further research in barriers of knowledge management in project based organizations. Originality/value This article is probably the first article which has identified barriers of knowledge management through interview and questionnaires carried out in 50 active project based organizations which had knowledge management section. The article also presented a three-layered framework for improving barriers of knowledge management, which can be applied step by step considering the level of importance.

- Explaining the decline in fertility among citizens of the G.C.C.
countries: the case of the U.A.E
- Authors: Mouawiya Al Awad et al
Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 2/3, August 2014.
Purpose This paper examines certain factors that have contributed to the decline in fertility in the Gulf Cooperation Council G.C.C. countries in recent years, taking the United Arab Emirates "U.A.E." as a case study. Design/methodology/approach Employing data from the 2008 U.A.E. Household Expenditure Survey, this paper analyzes the determinants of fertility using a Poisson fertility count model. Findings The results show that economic factors, in terms of the costs and benefits that families derive from children in the U.A.E. are not important determinants of fertility due to the large size of social insurance provided by the U.A.E. government. Moreover, labor market participation by either males or females do not play a critical role in determining fertility in the U.A.E. The two primary causes of declines in fertility are a) late marriages or late first births, and b) higher levels of female education. Other contributors to drops in fertility are marriages between U.A.E. national males and foreign females and increases in child birth intervals. Conversely, the size of household residences and the number of domestic workers working in a household contribute positively to fertility. Originality/value Little has been done in the literature to explain the fast drop in fertility in the G.C.C. countries. This may be due to the limited availability of data in this region. This paper, to our knowledge, is the first to shed some light on the effects of many socio-economic factors on fertility in the GCC.

- Preparing Emirati students to meet the English language entry requirements
for higher education: a pilot study
- Authors: Christina Gitsaki et al
Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 2/3, August 2014.
Purpose Performing well in standardised testing such as the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is of primary importance in preparing Emirati high school graduates for Higher Education. The applied research project reported here endeavoured to raise Emirati students' awareness of the knowledge and skills involved in succeeding in the IELTS exam. Design/methodology/approach The project comprised an intensive IELTS preparation course of 40 hours over the course of 8 weeks for high school students as a supplementary after-school program. It utilized a moderately large sample of 391 students from across 22 schools and two education zones, it included use of pre/post IELTS exam results, utilized multiple measures (process and impact data), and used a plethora of methods and statistical procedures including SPSS filtering and control techniques to help reduce error. The evaluation utilized these rigorous research methods to help isolate the effects of the program. Findings This supplemental intensive support program was able to improve student development and increase the pass rate and student performance and achievement on the IELTS exam. Practical implications The project was conceived in response to the low number of Emirati high school graduates entering directly into undergraduate programs mainly due to lack of adequate academic English proficiency. Originality/value The project addressed individual student needs and in the process raised expectations and promoted a culture of excellence. It empowered teachers and enhanced students' motivation and engagement in mastering the necessary knowledge, skills, and abilities needed to significantly increase performance on the IELTS exam and to transition into higher education studies.

- How can school education impact earthquake risk reduction in Lebanon'
- Authors: Hoda Baytiyeh et al
Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 2/3, August 2014.
Purpose The purpose of this article is to outline the existing seismic risk in Lebanon and to identify the crucial role of Lebanese school education in advancing both a culture of safety and the resilience of Lebanese communities to destructive earthquakes. Design/methodology/approach This paper sets out to illustrate the exposure of Lebanon to seismic hazards and to investigate the current status of Lebanese public schools in terms of their preparedness for earthquake events. Interviews were conducted with principals from seventeen different schools. From these interviews emerged the following four themes: curriculum deficiency, the structural vulnerability of school buildings, a lack of preparedness for natural hazards,and the need for community engagement in this regard. Findings School principals in Lebanon confirmed the need for schools to engage in earthquake disaster preparedness and mitigation, as well as to show an enthusiastic attitude for earthquake hazard reduction in terms of hazard education, greater preparedness, and community engagement. Originality/value As this article highlights the important role of school education in promoting earthquake disaster risk reduction, it has beneficial implications for educators, policy makers, administrators, and government officials.

- The Ministry of Higher Education's role in private Jordanian
universities and the hidden tool of the budget
- Authors: Osama Abdellateef Mah'd et al
Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 2/3, August 2014.
Purpose Private universities in developing countries struggle with their financial resources. There is an argument that a decision to adopt a new approach for the financing and management of Jordanian higher education (HE), has been taken since both funding and ownership belong to private sources. However, Ministry of Higher Education (MoHE) plays a role in the Jordanian context. The aim of this research is shed light on the role of MoHE in Private universities in Jordan. Design/methodology/approach This study explains the relations between the MoHE and PJUs and describes the PJUs managerial context. It is based on the prior research related to HE and budgeting. Sixteen budget preparers across eleven universities and a further three in the MoHE were interviewed. The research also employs observation to obtain direct knowledge of the research phenomena. It uses archival documents, guidelines and reports in order to accomplish the study objective. Findings This research presents an overview for private HE in the world with more concentration about the role of MoHE in PJUs presenting the regulations and laws related to higher education in Jordan.It proves that MoHE uses a budgeting formula to significantly increase their control over the private HE sector. Simultaneously, there is no government subsidies or tax exemptions (like those given to public universities) available to private universities. The results indicate that the MoHE control the private universities using the accreditation tools such as the budget. Originality/value Jordan has a unique situation in term of the relations between MoHE and Jordanian universities

- Students' acceptance and satisfaction of learning through course
- Authors: Sujeet Kumar Sharma et al
Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 2/3, August 2014.
Purpose This paper seeks to understand the interrelationships between various factors affecting the usage of course websites by university students in a developing country. The factors considered for the purpose of studying interrelationships include perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, perceived website credibility, and website learning acceptance and satisfaction. Further, a comparative study of the potential differences in perceptions between Indian and Omani students with respect to the aforementioned factors is also presented. Design/methodology/approach A survey instrument was used to collect data from students. Based on an extensive literature review, this paper uses empirical research to analyse student satisfaction in relation to learning through course websites. Data were analysed using factor analysis, structural equation modelling, and t-test. Findings The new proposed construct perceived website credibility was found to be an important predictor of website learning acceptance and satisfaction whereas perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use were mediating variables. In the extended study that compared perception of Indian and Omani students, a statistically significant difference in Indian and Omani students was observed for website leaning acceptance and satisfaction. Practical implications This study can provide valuable insights to decision makers that can aid the development of course websites for higher education institutions which are more user friendly and promote higher levels of learning, satisfaction, and greater usage of course websites. Originality/value This study is probably the first attempt to compare students' perception towards learning through course websites in Oman. Also, the use of the factor, perceived website credibility in understanding perceptions regarding course website learning presented in this paper is a unique feature of this paper and can seldom be seen in the existing research literature.

- The nature of parental involvement in the city of Abu Dhabi in a context
of change: Nurturing mutually responsive practice
- Authors: Fiona S. Baker et al
First page: 186
Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 4, October 2014.
Purpose This exploratory study explores parent and school administrator perspectives on the value and nature of parent involvement in the city of Abu Dhabi through their perceptions of roles and responsibilities. Design/methodology/approach The study is conducted in a random purposive sample of PPP schools during Abu Dhabi Education Council's school reform. Findings Findings show that while both administrators and parents agree on the value of parental involvement, the perceptions of their own and each others' roles and responsibilities means that parent involvement is characterized by unfulfilled expectations. Practical implications Recommendations are made to arrive at realistic roles and responsibilities for parent involvement and recommendations for a model of mutually responsive practice to evolve within a policy framework, with the support of ADEC, and informed by international and locally-based research. Originality/value The paper sheds light on a new educational dimension beyond curricula and instruction.

- The effect of perceived price fairness through satisfaction and loyalty on
international tourists' price acceptance of Islamic-Iranian art products
- Authors: Ali Asadi et al
First page: 201
Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 4, October 2014.
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of perceived price fairness through satisfaction and loyalty on price acceptance. Additionally, the antecedents of price fairness including price perception and tourist vulnerability would be examined. Design/methodology/approach The authors collected 674 questionnaires from international tourists who have purchased Islamic-Iranian art products and analyzed simultaneous relations with a structural equation modeling. Findings The results indicate that perceived price awareness and perceived vulnerability positively and significantly affect perceived price fairness. Additionally, perceived price fairness has a significant influence on customer satisfaction and loyalty. Moreover, customer satisfaction and loyalty were found to have a positive impact on price acceptance. Practical implications Based on the findings the results are expected to create a useful perspective for the researchers, so that they can present a broader model in the future studies. The results of this research can help managers to develop better pricing strategies and effective pricing mechanism design and, through recognition of factors influencing customer perception of the price, perform better pricing. Originality/value Although prior research separately focused on relationships among variables of perception of the price, perceived vulnerability, perceived price fairness, satisfaction and loyalty, price acceptance, current study considers the effect of these variables as a general compound model and in the context of Islamic-Iranian art tourism products.

college internships
- Authors: Hanadi Kadbey et al
First page: 216
Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 4, October 2014.
Purpose This research explored the effect of internship experience on final year pre-service teachers studying for a Bachelor of Education in Abu Dhabi. The UAE is undergoing a period of rapid education reform with a strong emphasis on use of student-centered learning strategies in the classroom. Teacher-training colleges, such as the one in which this research took place, have had to customize their programs to prepare and train teachers who can effectively implement this new approach. Design/methodology/approach Semi-structured interviews were conducted with ten pre-service teachers (PSTs) to explore the usefulness of the college science courses during their internship experience, and the challenges they faced during their internship. We also looked at how these experiences have influenced their confidence levels and the type of science teachers they want to be in the future. Findings Results have shown that PSTs have variable opinions on the usefulness of the college courses. A perceived lack of emphasis placed by mentor teachers upon science may have long-term effects on the PSTs' eventual use of teaching strategies. It was also shown that some of the PSTs still lacked confidence in science teaching. Practical implications This research may provide national guidelines for teacher-training colleges in the UAE or in countries undergoing educational reform and moving towards student-centered approaches to learning. Originality/value Research studies on the effect of internship on PSTs have been conducted in different countries but such studies have great novelty in the UAE.

- Towards more employable Egyptian HE graduates – a case study
- Authors: Amal Ahmed Abou-Setta et al
First page: 229
Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 4, October 2014.
Purpose In a country where the unemployment rate has reached 24.8% of the labor force and is significantly higher among university graduates, it has become necessary to examine the relationship between Higher Education (HE) and employability in Egypt and to ask these pressing questions: How do students perceive the relationship' What are its main problems' What are the changes required to help improve the relationship from their own perspective' Design/methodology/approach Offering an in-depth analysis of a case study of an Egyptian public university by interviewing four Egyptian HE students either in their final or their second-to-last year of study, this paper attempts to decipher the Egyptian HE students' attitudes towards quality education and employability as an ultimate purpose. It also offers a macroscopic view of the necessary changes to make HE graduates more employable. Findings The paper argues that, for effective HE reform to take place in Egypt, radical, comprehensive changes pertaining to programme design, curricula, assessment, pedagogy and admissions are called for, taking into account the contextual political, economic and cultural conditions. Originality/value Although there is a considerable amount of research literature examining the significant discrepancy between university graduates' educational gains and the functional requirements of the job market (Allen and De Weert 2007), not much of that research has examined the way graduates understand and manage their employability in light of the recent changes in both HE and the job market and the few studies focusing on this were mainly conducted in the western (Al-Harthi 2011).

- The effects of ERP systems implementation on management accounting in
Iranian organizations
- Authors: Solmaz Abbasi et al
First page: 245
Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 4, October 2014.
Purpose Preparing and offering different reports and budgets remain important activities for accountants, and directly implementing enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems improves the quality of these reports through real-time data transfer. The aim of this paper is to study the effects of ERP on management accounting in Iranian organizations. Design/methodology/approach The research methods used in this paper are descriptive surveys with questionnaires and interviews as the main data collection tools. Statistical population comprises of every organization which has implemented an ERP system with financial/accounting modules. The participating 12 organizations were selected based on consulting with experts and a seven-item Liker questionnaire was prepared and its validity approved and used to collect data. The t-test and Friedman test were applied to assess the hypotheses and rank parameters. Findings Results revealed that the highest effects of implementing an ERP in surveyed Iranian organizations are improving standard levels and the quality of reports, creating more organizational integration and empowering personnel. Research limitations/implications As the implementation of ERP in Iran is still in its initial phases and the sample is restricted to only four organizations, when considering the generalizability of the obtained results, caution should be taken. Originality/value This research is among the few studies on the effects of ERP implementation on accounting management departments, particularly in the context of Iran.

Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 4, October 2014.
Purpose This multiple-case-study was designed to examine the ambiguity enveloping the course learning outcomes and how they are perceived by faculty members in four private universities while investigating the dominant teaching perspectives, practices, and assessment techniques at the same time. In parallel, the Theory of Constructive Alignment was shared with faculty members and students respectively as a possible teaching-learning model. Design/methodology/approach This study is a qualitative multiple-case-study that has been designed based on Yin's (2009) case study protocol and stake's (2006) cross case analysis report. In the process, 52 faculty members were interviewed and 38 out of 52 were observed teaching, plus 15 out of 52 faculty members participated in separate focus groups about Constructive Alignment. Further, 18 students were interviewed in separate focus groups to find out how they perceive effective teaching and Constructive Alignment. Findings The findings showed why faculty members misunderstood the course learning outcomes. Both faculty members and students withheld similar perceptions when it came to efficient teaching; however, they disagreed regarding the utility of Constructive Alignment as a proposed teaching-learning model. The 52 faculty members were knowledge transmitters and this contradicts with the notion of the learning outcomes which is student-centered. In addition, they are not familiar with the teaching-learning theories or with the various pedagogical tools that may render learning constructive. Research limitations/implications The fact that this study is a multiple-case-study automatically implies that the results cannot be generalized to the larger higher education context. Nevertheless, the research findings can help in clarifying the reasons that hinder the proper implementation of the learning outcomes in other institutions as it can serve as a guide to improve all the detected weaknesses which may be applicable in other contexts. As well, it can aid the administrative bodies at the different institutions in dealing with the obstacles that restrain the workability of the learning outcomes. Practical implications Teaching in higher education must be nurtured through continuously investing time and effort in supporting the faculty members in order to incessantly develop their teaching-learning skills to suit the changing profiles of students to render learning an endurable experience. Originality/value The study is unique in how it combined Yin's Protocol with Stake's cross case analysis report. Additionally, the classroom observation instrument was somehow a precedent in terms of higher education research in the Lebanese context. Further, the results that were reached added to the results of previous researches the reasons why the learning outcomes were not functional. Plus, a cyclical/retrograding motion learning model emerged in the process, and the practicality of the theory of Constructive Alignment in the Lebanese context was questioned.

Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 4, October 2014.
Purpose In this paper the main objective is to measure the demand for bachelors, masters, and PhD degree students at an Iranian university. Design/methodology/approach We used system dynamics (SD) modeling for our strategic plan compilation. Findings After a successful examination of the model, a simulation was carried out for the coming eighteen years. The results show that in the future, the university will face reductions in the numbers of BA, MA and PhD students. Therefore, university leaders need to develop appropriate strategies to deal with this challenge. Originality/value System dynamics modeling for strategic plan compilation has been used for the first time in an examination of higher education in Iran.

Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 4, October 2014.
Purpose This study utilized the IRT rating scale model to analyze students' perceptions of assessment practices in two universities: one in Jordan and the other in the United States. The sample of the study consisted of 506 university students selected from both universities. Results show that the two universities still focus on paper-pencil testing to assess students' learning outcomes. The study recommends that higher education institutes should encourage their teachers to use different assessment methods to assess students' learning outcomes. Design/methodology/approach The convenience sample consisted of 506 selected university students from the USA and Jordan, and participants were distributed according to their educational levels thus: 83 freshmen, 139 sophomores, 157 juniors, and 59 seniors. (Note: some students from both universities did not report their gender and/or their educational level). The US university sample consisted of 219 students from three colleges at a major university in the south east of the USA studying for arts and sciences, education, and commerce and business qualifications, of whom 43 were males and 173 were females. The study used the Students Perception of Assessment Practices (SPAP) Inventory developed by Alquraan (2007), and for the purpose of this study, the RUMM2020 program was used for its rating scale model. Findings Both universities, in Jordan and the USA, still focus more on the developmental (construction of assessment tasks), organizational and planning aspects of assessment processes than they do on assessments of learning and assessment methods (traditional and new assessment methods). The assessment practices that are used frequently in both universities based on the teachers sampled are: "(I27) I know what to study for the test in this class", "(I6) Teacher provides a good environment during test administration", and "(I21) My teacher avoids interrupting students as they are taking tests". This indicates that teachers in the selected universities have a tendency to focus on the administrative and communicative aspects of assessment (e.g. providing a good environment during test administration) more than on using different assessment methods (e.g. portfolios, new technology, computers, peer, and self-assessment), or even using assessment practices that help students learn in different ways (e.g. assessing students' prior knowledge and providing written feedback on the graded tests). Originality/value This is a cross-cultural study focus assessment of students learning in higher education.

Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 4, October 2014.
Purpose Tourists' perceptions of quality and the value of a sport tourist destination and their satisfaction level and loyalty are vital for successful destination marketing and management. The purpose of the current study is to explore complicated structural relationships among these variables. Design/methodology/approach A survey was used to collect data from a sample of 570 sport tourists who travelled to Nowshahr and Chalous cities in Iran during September 2012. This data was gathered by convenience sampling method and analyzed using a structural equation model (SEM). Findings The results of the SEM revealed that tourists' perceived quality and perceived value have a significant impact on their satisfaction. Further, tourists' satisfaction had a positive and significant effect on the level of their loyalty. Practical implications Findings of the current study contribute to a better perception of behavioral mechanisms and incentives and provide an acceptable basis to improve tourism industry in both regional and national level. Originality/value This is the first such study of the Iranian sports sector.

Asian automotive supply chain

First page: 333
Abstract: Education, Business and Society: Contemporary Middle Eastern Issues, Volume 7, Issue 4, October 2014.
Purpose This paper aims to empirically explore the effects of Intellectual Capital (IC) on Supplier Selection (SS) and consequently investigates the consecutive impacts on an Asian automotive Supply Chain Performance (SCP). Design/methodology/approach A questionnaire-oriented survey obtained from top managers and expert employees from different Asian automotive industries, all of which exist in the same supply chain, was utilized for factor analysis and structural equation modeling (SEM). Findings The findings indicate that some dimensions of IC containing human capital (HC), relational capital (RC) and structural capital (SC) sufficiently influence evaluation and selection of optimal suppliers which leads to more efficient performance of the supply chain. Research limitations/implications First, as the research analyzes the findings extracted from three important Asian automotive companies which exist in the same supply chain, the results may not be applicable to other industries in different countries. Second, gathering data from other elements of the supply chain like wholesalers and retailers could enrich the research conducted. Besides, more advanced statistical methods could be utilized to evaluate the regression equations and SEM. Practical implications With a comprehensive view on Intellectual Capital (IC) that takes into account its creation, protection and utilization, IC plays an essential role in selecting and assessing optimal suppliers which enhance competitive advantage, especially in knowledge-based organizations. IC will also increase the supply chain performance efficiently and effectively. Originality/value This study develops an integrated knowledge model for a supplier selection issue based on IC, and focuses on the effects of its various elements. It offers assistance to managers who tend to select optimal suppliers effectively.

Wall Street continues to rebound, Dow up 150 pts
Markets in the United States continued to add gains on Friday, the Dow rising 150 points in the intraday trade, reversing losses caused by Trump turmoil. Earlier in the week, it was reported the US President Donald Trump revealed confidential information to Russians and had attempted to stop the FBI probe into former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn's alleged contacts with foreign officials. However, investors grew more confident on Friday, becoming less concerned with the political situation in the US as Trump's business-friendly agendas overweighed political instability fears.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 0.79% at 6:41 pm CET, adding around 150 points. Caterpillar and Boeing were the main advancers, increasing 2.07% and 1.36% respectively at 6:27 pm CET. The S&P 500 was also higher, rising 0.87% on the strong performance of the information technology sector and industrials at 6:45 pm CET. Meanwhile, the Nasdaq 100 traded 0.76% higher at the same time.
The US dollar shed 0.80% against the euro, changing hands for 0.8934 at 6:46 pm CET.

Getting Yourself onto a Golf Training Program
|点击数:… 投票数:…
Where can information leading to improving golf skills be found? Obviously the internet is going to be a great start. This is where most people find that they can obtain information quickly, but there are other ways as well.
Using these vouchers is incredibly easy; they are usually issued by the site owner. When entering a course that is involved in the discount simply provide the coupon or discount code at reception. They will apply the discount to the cost of the day at the golf course, giving the players an instant discount.
The first drill is Right Hand only if you are right-handed. Put your left hand behind your back. Just reverse these instructions if you are a left-hander.
A lot of people find that practicing alone can be a great way to improve their game. Sometimes it can be stressful practicing in front of others, especially when you know that you probably look poor compared to more skilled friends or colleagues. This is certainly not going to help a player improve, which why practicing in private can be a much more effective method to improve and build confidence.
Risks to golfers these days come in all shapes and forms. In fact, injuries on the golf course are becoming more and more frequent. Whilst the safety of golf courses is generally increasing, the numbers of players are also increasing. What this means is that there are more and more hazards surfacing for players on a daily basis.
New golfers are likely to be confused as the amount of different things to think about when starting golf becomes too much to handle for a lot of people. Golf has become increasingly popular over the last few years because it is an affordable sport to get involved with and can offer hours of fun.
Getting yourself onto a golf training program and getting used to golf lessons could be the right way forward. Generally, these courses or lessons will be instructed by someone that is not only great at the game, but knows how to pass on what they know.
