Hooked - (Stacia Naquin)
Updated: 10/11/2013 - I'm SO CLOSE to being able to do a pull-up. So my trainer introduced something new into my training.
Earlier tonight several viewers sent us photos and video of a tornado that struck near La Junta in the town of Cheraw.
Around 5:30 this evening, a tornado touched down near Cheraw.
The tornado lifted after being on the ground for less than 5 minutes, with no confirmed damage.
The same severe storms produced strong straight-line wind in La Junta, that knocked down trees, powerlines, and damaged a gas station along HWY 50 and Main Street.
While some localized flash flooding occurred while the storm was impacting the area, widespread flooding was not reported.
Storms have moved east, and weather is improving. Watch out for more storms Tuesday afternoon, Meteorologist Brian Bledsoe.

Forward Gasol has just helped the Los Angeles Lakers win the NBA championship, while 18-year-old Rubio hopes to join him in the United States next season if he can negotiate a release from his contract with Spanish side DKV Joventut.
Point guard Rubio was selected fifth in the NBA Draft by the Minnesota Timberwolves last week.
New Spain coach Sergio Scariolo brought in Carlos Cabezas for injured Toronto Raptors guard Jose Manuel Calderon, and Victor Claver for retired captain Carlos Jimenez.
World champions Spain were runners-up to Russia in the last Eurobasket final in Madrid two years ago. This year's tournament is in Poland from Sept. 7-20.

If you are seriously thinking about redesigning your web site, here is a web design questionnaire that you can use to consider the reasons, the performance, the web designer, and the work prior, during and post launch.
Why do I want to redesign my web site?
Can these issues be improved with tweaks to the current site or with an SEO initiative?
Is this an isolated initiative to make the site prettier? or is it part of a larger comprehensive marketing plan to improve sales? - What are the lead generation and revenue increase goals that I want to achieve from my web redesign?
Who is my customer?
What questions does my customer have that I should answer through the site?
What is my customer's buying process? - How will the new site mimic that?
What's the story and how will it be told?
What will the SEO implications be?
How will the new site sell? - What will be the calls to action on the site? Do they cover all the steps of the buying cycle?
What is the site content plan? How will the content be managed, so that you don't end up with a beautiful new site that has no content?
What is the Search Engine Optimization strategy? - What are the most important keywords to rank your site?
How will the new site be kept fresh and updated - What is the content creation strategy - How does that relate to story to be told?
Will it be accessible via mobile?
What's the team background - Have they developed sites similar to what I want?
Did they explain clearly what is the process to optimize my website and the reason behind every step of the project framework?
Are they a creative design firm? Or are they a firm that looks at the whole picture and focuses on the results of the site?
What are some of the traffic, lead generation and revenue improvement results that they have accomplished in other projects as a result of web redesign?
How do they track those results?
What are the projects and budgets needed to generate those kind of results?
Do they have any certifications?
Have they won any awards beyond creative design?
How will the project be managed? - Is there a project management software that they will use to interact with key people in your company? Or is everything based on email?
How does the firm charge? - Golden platter all inclusive type project based on a set of deliverables previously agreed upon? Or is there an initial budget but if time runs out, they start charging by the hour leading to an endless over spending craze?
If there is a bug and the project is launched, will they charge to fix it, or is there a warranty policy?
What are some references / business cases?
What will be the staffing needs to maintain the site?
How will we spread the word about it?
How will I measure the success?
What will be the cost and how will the ROI be calculated?
How will I keep up with all the leads generated through the website
And the most important question relates to the fact that no website project should be considered a complete marketing project. Your website redesign is the first important step (if done properly) of an effective marketing program:
30.1 What is my plan to continue to improve traffic and conversion... forever?

In its mid-quarter monetary policy review on Monday, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) kept monetary conditions unchanged. After its surprising 50 basis points (bps) cut in the repo rate in April, a build-up of expectations for a further cut had occurred in the past two months. Instead, the central bank chose a course of prudence in the face of renewed inflationary pressures; and rightly so.
One key reason for not further loosening monetary policy is the government's inability to take matching steps after RBI's last round of rate cuts. The bank noted: "The Reserve Bank had front-loaded the policy rate reduction in April with a cut of 50 bps. This decision was based on the premise that the process of fiscal consolidation critical for inflation management would get under way, along with other supply-side initiatives. Our assessment of the current growth-inflation dynamic is that there are several factors responsible for the slowdown in activity, particularly in investment, with the role of interest rates being relatively small."
Since the last policy review, two other developments have taken place. One, the rupee's continuous depreciation amounts to an effective loosening of monetary conditions.
JPMorgan's India economist Sajjid Chinoy argued in Mint on Monday that 10% depreciation in the nominal effective exchange rate of the rupee is equivalent to 100 bps of rate cuts. Two, the Wholesale Price Index (WPI) has been above 7% for the past four months. Data released on Monday shows that retail inflation in May stood at 10.36%. With high retail inflation and other important components of WPI—food and fuel—too being in double digits, the possibility of generalized inflation creeping upwards is very real. In any case, if inflationary expectations are a yardstick of what can happen, these dangers cannot be ignored. There is plenty of suppressed inflation in fuel products: at the moment global oil and commodity prices are down, but in case of a further injection of liquidity by Western central banks—something that can't be ruled out—these prices will shoot up.
Under these conditions, it makes little sense for inflicting further rate cuts. There is widespread fear—especially in industry—that unless the cost of investment is brought down, growth will not pick up. Interest rates are only one measure of these costs. If anything, more than interest rates, time overruns and policy delays are much more important in undermining investment and project viability. The central bank has little to do with these issues. The remedy for this problem lies with the government.

Cannington couple's dream home to feature on TV
10:00am Tuesday 17th September 2013 in News By Matthew Colledge
A COUPLE who went through a year of highs and lows building their dream home will proudly show off the results of their hard work on television.
Andrew and Vicki Dodden and their five-bedroom home on the outskirts of Cannington will feature on More 4's Building the Dream next week.
The Doddens moved into their cottage at Hornhill in January 2011.
Vicki said: "We fell in love with its setting as soon as we saw it, surrounded by rolling hills and with a stream along its perimeter, it was perfect.
"At the time we had looked at all possible options to build, or renovate a property to provide us with the space and comfort we wanted as a family.
"When we found our cottage we could see the potential it had."
Andrew runs a building business, Dodden Ltd, specialising in low energy construction and sustainable build techniques.
He and Vicki had always dreamed that one day he would be able to use his skills to make a home for them and their three children - Jasmin, eight, Madison, six, and Enzo, four.
Last May, they began work converting the cottage into an eco-home using a variety of modern materials.
They also built a large extension.
The result was a five-bedroom house that has no central heating; instead it has a log burner, solar heating and triple glazing to cut down on energy bills.
The project was followed from start to finish by TV crews from More 4.
Vicki said: "We had been to an eco exhibition and it was through that that More 4 got in touch with us.
"It's going to be interesting because we don't get to see the finished programme, but it was fun all the way through."
Vicki said she and Andrew were extremely grateful to everybody who helped them move into their home in time for Christmas last year.
She said: "It was definitely a bit of a stressful Christmas, as the work wasn't finished then."The house was finally completed at Easter.
"We are over the moon with it and really proud that this is our home.
"We think this kind of eco-home is the way forward. We had 20 people here for Christmas and the house is so well insulated that we had to open the windows because it was so warm."
Building the Dream airs next Tuesday at 9pm.

This is another recipe that I discovered on Rachael Ray's Tuscan American themed Week in a Day show. I made it for the first time last night and will definitely be making it again! We reheated some for lunch today, and it turns out that it's even better the next day.
I started with a 2.87 lb chuck roast, and cut it into large pieces; approximately 2 inch cubes.
While I do have a french oven, I decided to use my six-quart chef's pan instead and it worked perfectly. I brought the pan to a medium heat, drizzled in a little olive oil, and added the meat.
While the recipe doesn't call for it, I did brown the meat a bit. If you're going to do this, pat it dry first on all sides; otherwise it really won't brown well. You can use a dish towel if you want but I always use paper towels.
I quartered two large onions, and added those to the meat, along with two bay leaves and roughly three cloves of minced garlic.
Next, I added a quart of beef broth; enough to just cover the meat. If this isn't enough, you can add a little water, as well.
I brought this to a low boil and then simmered for about two hours.
At that point, I spooned out about one-quarter cup of the cooking liquid, added two tablespoons of tomato paste to it, stirred, then mixed that back into the pot. I also added two cups of a pinot noir we like and one tablespoon of coarse black pepper.
While this continued to simmer away, I went to work on the potatoes. I peeled six medium-sized potatoes, sliced them in half lengthwise, and then cut them into small wedges.
I boiled the potatoes for about five minutes, and poured them into a strainer. Then, I drizzled some olive oil in a skillet and added two tablespoons of minced garlic. Once the garlic had turned gold, I removed most of it and added the strained potatoes along with salt, pepper, and rosemary, and let them crisp up. This took much longer than I thought it would, so allow at least half an hour for this step, depending on how crispy you like them.
After simmering for another three and a half hours, the meat and onions were fork tender and just falling apart. Perfect!
To serve, remove the bay leaves and spoon the meat, onions, and juices into a wide, shallow bowl. Place the crispy potatoes around the edges, on top of the meat, to keep them crispy, and enjoy!
As an added bonus, this is even better the next day!
- 3 tablespoons EVOO
- 3 pound chuck roast; room temperature
- Salt
- 1 quart beef stock
- 1 onion, quartered (or more!)
- 2 bay leaves
- 3 cloves garlic, crushed
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon coarse black pepper
- 2 cups dry red wine
- 2 1/2 pounds potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/2-inch thick or cut into wedges
- 2 tablespoons rosemary, finely chopped
- Season beef with a coarse salt. Place the beef in large Dutch oven with the stock and enough water to just cover. Add the onion(s), bay leaves and 2 cloves of the garlic. Bring to a low boil and simmer, partially covered, for 2 hours. Stir together the tomato paste and 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid, then add to the pot. Add the pepper and wine and cover. Cook on the stovetop at a gentle simmer until very tender and falling apart, 2 1/2 to 3 hours (alternatively, transfer to the oven and roast at 325 degrees F).
- To serve, while the beef is still simmering, boil the potatoes until tender and drain; about five minutes. Add the remaining 2 to 3 tablespoons of oil to a pot over medium heat. Add the remaining clove garlic, stir for minute, then remove the garlic. Add the potatoes and crisp a bit. Season with salt, pepper, and chopped, fresh rosemary.
- While the recipe calls for one large onion, I used two, and next time I'll use three or four.

Oct. 7, 2011 Biological invasions, i.e. the spread of introduced, non-native species, not only serve as ecological model systems, but also bring out the importance of economic activities on ecological processes. Two recent books have shown the extent and variety of the interaction of economics with invasion science and also the variety of approaches to tackling these problems.
Three researchers, lead by Mark Williamson from the University of York, England, argue in the latest issue of the open access journal NeoBiota that the ecological and economic dimensions of the problem of invasive species are connected at different levels. Many of the changes that lead ecosystems to be more vulnerable to the impact of invasive species are direct consequences of economic behaviour. This is because these impacts are externalities of the market transactions; they are not taken seriously by those making the transactions perhaps because they are not held legally responsible for the impacts nor are the markets directly affected by these impacts. Instead these impacts are often borne by those who receive little or no benefit from the market transactions.
Furthermore, Williamson, Meyerson & Auge point out that biological invasions are good models for studying more general processes in ecology. In particular, the behaviour of ecosystems that are not in or close to equilibrium can be studied easily in biological invasions. On the one hand, biological invasions help us to understand mechanisms of spread, which is important for native weedy species and colonization of new habitats, much better. On the other hand, they serve as a study system on how ecosystem functions. This knowledge is crucial to predict impacts of Global Change on ecosystem services beneficial to society.

Get The Picture
This driver finds and captures moments of beauty on the road
Chris Jackson • Driving for 1 year • Fontana, Calif.
I always loved taking pictures. I wanted to get into photography right out of high school, but saw that job opportunities for photographers were scarce. I decided to just do it as a hobby. I would drive aimlessly every few days, and head up to the desert or the mountains and just start taking pictures.
I worked at a few different jobs, and after looking over career options chose trucking. I always thought driving a big truck was cool and I wanted to see different sights so I decided to get my CDL and give it a try.
The first time in the truck with my trainer was pretty amazing. I was out for nine weeks and saw most of the United States in that time. I had visited Colorado and Massachusetts for family visits but never traveled over the open road. I saw all the natural beauty in the country.
I was blown away by what I saw.
Where I live in Orange County there are no bridges and I have always been fascinated by old architecture. Driving over the Arkansas River, I'd see these amazing pieces of architecture — these bridges that I was driving over, so I would take pictures of those. Driving through Utah I was awed by the scenery of Devil's Canyon. The color of the rocks — you would pay to get that kind of intense color on a canvas. The beauty of all the places I've been able to encounter as a driver just blows my mind.
It can even be something simple. Driving through the desert in Arizona, I'll encounter a thunderstorm and see the sunset line in the storm. If you are in the right place at the right time, you can fully appreciate nature once you really start observing. I've got a case of Attention Deficit Disorder and look everywhere. I always take in everything around me.
I get to see a lot of cool things on the road, in different states and different climates. And so I take advantage of it and take pictures of everything. My favorite kinds of pictures are time-exposure shots at night or of nature in general. I never plan my photos. It's always on a whim.
I met another trucker who takes photos and she was selling them to some outlets, like weather.com. I was intrigued by that and looked into getting my own photos published. I took one of a Ferris wheel at night that was published in the Orange County Register newspaper.
Driving a truck, I love the opportunity to be somewhere different every day. I've always enjoyed being sporadic and that's what I like about trucking. When I come back after being at home, I don't even know where I'm going until I get my load information. I like not knowing where I'll be next. It's great to just take off to random places and get paid for it.

In a white paper released Thursday titled "Leveling the Playing Field for U.S. Airlines and Their Employees," the Air Line Pilots Association, Int'l (ALPA) outlines the clear solutions that the U.S. government must pursue to create a strong U.S. airline industry and fairly position U.S. airlines and their employees to compete and prevail in global air transportation.
"In the global marketplace, competition exists not only between companies, but between governments. Foreign airlines, particularly in the Persian Gulf, operate under governments that make promoting strong and competitive carriers a national priority," said Capt. Lee Moak, ALPA's president (pictured), in a speech before the Aero Club of Washington, at which the white paper was released.
While foreign countries invest heavily in airports and infrastructure, advance pro-aviation economic policies, and build state-of-the-art air transportation systems, the United States continues to promote many policies that actually hinder the U.S. airline industry and its employees' ability to compete in the global marketplace.
In the white paper, ALPA makes clear that many of the U.S. airlines' foreign competitors are state-owned or heavily state-sponsored and operate from countries with low or nonexistent tax and regulatory burdens. Meanwhile, the U.S. airline industry is heavily taxed and highly regulated, and current policy often permits U.S. taxpayers' money to be used to help foreign airlines gain an economic advantage.
The white paper details ALPA's policy action plan to level the playing field for U.S. airlines. The union calls for a major policy overhaul in three key areas:
"I believe that now is the time for labor and airline executives to work together with others in industry and with governments in the United States and around the globe," concluded Capt. Moak. "Working together is the only way we can level the playing field."

text: As part of her work on daily rituals, the American artist Naomi Leibowitz visits photobooths in New York and Chicago. Inserting a coin into the machine, she obtains photographs of the interior of the booths, displaying their austere and standardized nature: a cell made of walls with a curtain backdrop. Her project is a kind of typology of the curtain, the decor's only changing element, reminder of the device's different uses: neutral color schemes (white and grey) since these photobooths are meant to produce standardized portraits for identification papers; while color or even leopard-print curtains offer a more favorable setting to immortalize intimate and playful moments. Naomi Leibowitz sees the photobooth as an "archaic landmark for ephemeral photography." Enlarging the photobooth strips to 180 x 40 cm, she turns the booth's interior into a theater stage where the spectator waits for the curtain to rise.

Academic mefites: is this plagiarism?
October 3, 2012
What to do when, as a peer reviewer, you figure out an author self-plagiarized?
I was asked to evaluate an article for a journal. The study is good enough, but the use of the relevant literature is somewhat spotty. Namely, my own research is completely misrepresented. This is fine, as part of it can be debated in the usual means of academia and another part can be rectified through the review process.
But here is where things get complicated. The editors hadn't done a really good job editing out the identity of the author, so I was able to look up her other published work. And yes, I checked - namely to see if I should start writing a response article ASAP. In reading this already published article, I found one paragraph which is identical in both articles.
What do I do? Do I signal this to the editors? Does it qualify as academic fraud or is it common practice in academia to "reuse" text?

Could you signal it to the authors by saying you "spot googled" some phrases of the article and found this whole paragraph?
Because then it doesn't matter who she is or whom she plagiarized, you found it by googling her words and they've already been published.....

Officially you don't know the identity of the author, right? Just report that a paragraph from anonymous author A's paper appears to have originated from another paper by author B, even if you have strong reason to suspect that A and B are the same person. Let the journal's editors deal with it from that point.

You can't plagiarise yourself, since plagiarism is stealing someone else's ideas. However, if part of the paper has been published in another journal or book then there may be a copyright issue, since the contents of the publication will basically belong to the first publishing journal. If the initial published work is in some other format though, (for example, I write reports for research projects and if they are good enough convert them to academic papers - the people who commissioned the reports want me to get published since it makes the research more relevant and gives it more impact) then there's a good chance it is not really a problem. (So, while it may not be totally common to reuse text, it is not necessarily a huge foul.)
So anyway, what you do is (a) make suggestions in the anonymous comments to the submitting writer that they might consider x, y and z, where these are your publications and anything else that might improve their quality and (b) make it clear to the journal editor in the box marked 'Comments for editor, not to go to submitting author' (or some such) that a paragraph appears as is somewhere else, naming the publication, author, year, URL, etc. If its the author's own previous work then it may not be a problem, but the journal editor can decide on that (both as regards plagiarism and as regards original work). These boxes will be on the journal's reviewers pages when you come to submit your review.

If you know who the author is, it probably needs to be assigned to another reviewer. Your checking, to essentially further your own self-interests, is a breach of the system. Sorry! Apologize to the reviewers and move on.
Self-plagiarism is tricky and I honestly believe in giving one's peers the benefit of the doubt. If I were the editor, I'd simply flag that paragraph and ask that it be reworded. You might want to mention it to them.

Self-plagiarism (or text-recycling, if you want to use gentler language) is not universally considered unethical in academic fields I'm familiar with.
Here's a nice overview
of some recent cases.
In my personal opinion if the language is in the introduction or methods sections I wouldn't think twice about it. The researcher probably has a text file of descriptions of their experiment and copy-pastes in the language. Maybe not optimal, but hardly unethical. If it's in results/discussion/conclusion I'd be a bit more concerned.
I think this is a journal policy question, not a research ethics question. I agree with RichardP that you should tell the editors of the journal that you noticed language similar to this other article, and let them deal with it.

It could be self-plagiarism.
If so, some disciplines/conferences/journals are less picky if it is a piece of boilerplate that generally describes e.g. the overall scope of the work, the overall experimental approach, the framing of the lit review, etc. They are more picky if it is specific research questions, research findings, etc.
You could mention this anyway, and then let the Eds decide.
Some journals allow you to address comments to both the author(s) and the Eds., you could definitely address comments to the Eds. if you want to, and then say that you do not want to review this further, for confidentiality reasons.

I came across this very issue this week. One of our collaborators - the first author - used very similar intro paragraphs for complementary papers (they come from the same dataset and the same project, but address different aspects of the study question). The author and co-authors are the same for both papers. The PI asked that the intro for the second one be changed. The PI worded it something like this: Though the paper is our intellectual
, it is not our intellectual
, as once paper 1 gets published it is the property of the journal. The PI also told us that someone at our institution had been fired recently (within the last year) for something similar.
I don't know the details of the firing. I work at a university in Canada.

This recently came up for a colleague who had recycled some of the text of a methods section from previous work the lab had published. Some journals do consider this plagiarism, and this should be outlined in the publication requirements for the specific journal. Typically it just means rewriting the text in question or citing the previous work, and isn't really considered "plagiarism" in the same ethical sense as taking someone else's work as one's own. I agree with the above posters, signal it to the editors and they can sort it out with the authors.

Thanks! It helps to have a different vocabulary to speak about it (recycling, for instance).
To be clear, I did not know this author before reviewing the article. The identity of the author was left quite clear in the article itself, where, for instance, the author refers, several times, to her/"my" previous research on the topic of xyz (author 2011). The fact this information was left in the article by the editors raises a whole other level of concerns. But yes, perhaps I shouldn't have checked previous work, but curiosity killed this cat. FYI, I had finished a first draft of the review before I checked the article and was planning on revising it tomorrow.

I second several of the others in this thread. Flag the duplicated paragraph to the editors and let them deal with it. Whether or not it is a problem is highly dependent on several factors including the field, the journal, and the content of the paragraph. Frankly, a single duplicated paragraph wouldn't bother me too much by itself, but it does send up a red flag about how much more may be duplicated. If I were the editor I would ask for a clarification from the author and at minimum ask for reassurances that the rest of the paper is above reproach.

Exactly: tell the editors what you've found, but it's not really a crime: they're recycling something, which is lazy, but if they're under the tenure gun then they're probably firing off as much stuff as they can.
More important is the fact that the article has ignored or misrepresented your research: the person does not have to agree with you, but they cannot misrepresent your argument in order to refute it. And the fact that the journal sent it to you, rather than someone else, means that they want you to catch this.
I've had this happen to me, too, and it's annoying. You feel like such a putz demanding that this person engage with your work honestly -- but it's probably the reason that the paper was sent to you for review, and not someone else.
In other words, write up what you've told us and tell them that you think it needs work.

I am an editor for one academic journal, and we use
routinely for all submissions that might be accepted. I think that's probably routine for all Wiley journals, and likely also for other big publishers too. As explained above we do this both for ethical reasons, and to prevent IP issues.
We routinely ask authors to rework any substantial self-plagiarism. However, a small amount of text, particularly if it explains something technical about the methods for the paper is usually fine. The editors will appreciate you flagging up this problem. As an aside, editors are just people, you can ask them this kind of stuff too.

First of all, we all recycle bits of our stuff, it's unavoidable. Examples:
- You give a conference paper based on a book script, it's requested for and reprinted in the conference proceedings and appears as such in print. Your book comes out a year later; some passages will be the same.
- You re-write and correct a paper from your studies that has earlier appeared in an anthology, and publish it as a book chapter; some passages will be the same.
- You prepare a book script and while working on it, you create a spin-off article for a peer-reviewed journal. Although your later book will present a more refined version, and will have benefitted from a more professional editing routine, some passages will still be the same.
The point is, unless it's about core arguments, one rarely self-footnotes. Footnotes to own work typically appear for one of the following (legitimate) reasons:
- Positioning. One wants the reader to understand that one has a good publishing record and is well-established in the field.
- Shortcutting. One refers to a discussion one has held in greater detail elsewhere.
- Fine-tuning or withdrawing an argument. One refers to what one has said earlier, and where, and discusses a change of position.
- Engaging in debate. Someone has attacked one's argument x in article y, and in order to counter this criticism, one has to refer to the source.
- indicating that a book chapter is an elaboration of an earlier published article. Typically one puts a footnote about this at the beginning of the chapter.
So, if we're talking about only one paragraph, you should point out that this one paragraph has been found in article x by author y (not engaging in discussing whether this is the same author as the one of the article you're reviewing), and ask for a "missing reference". If the author has her wits about her, she'll be able to make that work - easily.
I would nevertheless recommend to run the article through some type of plagiarism software. If you come up with substantially more, that's when you need to pull the alarm.
Another recommendation: hide your irritation about the misrepresentation of your work well.

Some publications will allow authors to reuse parts of previously published material by including a caveat to this effect. For example, "Portions of this work have been previously published in the Dec 2010 edition of the Journal of Cthulhu Knitting Patterns." It may be as simple as adding this to the end of the article.

Hi, I'm the administrative support to our Associate VP for research integrity.
Self-plagiarism is plagiarism. And we cover it in our Responsible Conduct of Research course. We'd be very interested to hear about this.
Notify the other editors, yes. But you may also wish to notify the Research Integrity Officer at the author's institution. That will prompt a review of the issue. Even if "research misconduct" is not found, it is likely to result in remedial education concerning appropriate publication practices - which it sounds like this person could use.
When you notify anyone of this issue, please be sure to cite your complaint specifically. I don't think people realize quite how many research integrity allegations are thrown out on technicalities because they're not properly phrased. You need to be as specific as possible. "Something fishy with this paragraph" isn't going to cut it. You need to specifically state the type of research misconduct you are alleging (in this case, plagiarism), and you need to provide specific examples from the publications in question.
Feel free to MeMail me if you have other questions.

It doesn't need to be quite that drastic. I encountered this earlier this year in an article I peer-reviewed. Again it was one paragraph, which I recognised from a book chapter by the same author in an edited collection I'd happened to read a few months previously. I figured both pieces had emerged out of the same piece of writing and the disjunction had been incomplete: Siamese twin articles, if you will.
In my reader's report, I flagged the issue, advising publication on the proviso that the offending paragraph be either cut altogether or pared down, with a footnote to be added referring to the earlier book chapter. On the cover sheet, I marked the essay down on the "originality" scale, noting that the reason for this was the repetition issue. The journal editor got back to me a few weeks later saying the article had been approved for publication, with revisions based on the readers' reports.

There are two distinct reasons why we damn copying. We disapprove of copying from
author because it is disrespectful not to evidence the source of the material. We disapprove of reproducing a previously published article or large chunk from an article because it is wasteful of resources—libraries have to buy the material a second time, researchers have to plough through the article a second time before realising that it is the same material.
This latter argument doesn't apply to a single paragraph of duplication. Indeed, there are good arguments that a standard method or idea should be described consistently in the same language to save researchers's time trying to pick apart seemingly different descriptions of the same idea in different papers. We seem to have adopted a half-understood notion from primary-school creative writing about "not repeating yourself" and applied it to a completely different situation.
If this still bothers you, I'd suggest that you flag it in your comments to the author or editor—the paper wasn't masked as well as it should have been (not uncommon) and you noticed a common paragraph with another paper by the same authors. But, in the end, you should ask yourself the question as to whether the communication of the ideas in the paper would be improved by changing it—that is ultimately what matters.

I reread both articles and apart from one paragraph, meant to establish context, found both pieces are distinct enough. I flagged the paragraph to the editor. But the main reason I had noticed it in the first place was that it misrepresents the context. So I also flagged it to the author as potentially erroneous. (Too bad no one noticed it in the article that was published).
I also told the editor my work and that of another scholar had been misrepresented and provided supporting evidence.
It was my first experience having my work misrepresented and I'm sure it won't be the last. The good news is that the experience prompted me to start writing an article where I clarify my understanding of the concepts the author misused. In the end, the whole experience ended up being productive. Thank you all for your advice!

601W Cos. to study Intelsat renovations
- Daniel J. Sernovitz
- Staff Reporter- Washington Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
The 601W Cos. is seeking architects for what could be a substantial renovation of Intelsat S.A.'s soon-to-be-former headquarters at 4000 Connecticut Ave. NW as the satellite service provider prepares to relocate from the District to Tysons Corner.
601W acquired Intelsat's 601,160-square-foot headquarters for $85 million earlier this year and has retained CBRE Group Inc. to help it evaluate future uses for the building. CBRE and 601W plan to study what upgrades or changes will be needed to replace Intelsat when it moves in mid-2014 to the Macerich Co.'s Tysons Tower.
CBRE broker Bruce Pascal said the futuristic-looking building will continue to be marketed as office space, but it is too soon to say whether 601W will be able to find a single tenant to replace Intelsat or whether the building will need to be broken down into smaller chunks to meet the needs of multiple tenants.
Pascal said he does not expect it will be difficult to interest prospective tenants in the building, which was constructed in 1988 and features rooftop gardens, an on-site cafeteria, fitness center, interior atriums and more than 13 acres of open space.
"We feel we have this incredible, iconic building at 4000 Connecticut Ave.," Pascal said. "It's one of the few buildings in this city where the inside factors are even cooler than it is from the outside."
Pascal said the building has been designed as a series of four pods, stacked over six floors, with each pod a little more than 50,000 square feet. Each are connected by a series of bridges and links. Pascal said the building could lend itself to being broken down into space for three separate tenants, with entrances facing Connecticut Avenue, International Drive and Tilden Street.

FBI Sends Blackmail Letter to Martin Luther King, Jr. : "King, like all your frauds your end is approaching."
via: lettersofnote.com
In November of 1964, fearful of his connection to the Communist Party through Stanley Levison, the FBI anonymously sent Martin Luther King the following threatening letter, along with a cassette that contained the fruits of a 9 month surveillance project — allegedly incriminating audio recordings of King with women in various hotel rooms — headed by William C. Sullivan.
A decade later, Sullivan told investigators that they had simply wanted King to resign from the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. King, on the other hand, had seen the letter as an invitation to take his own life. [source?]

Hi Helena.
No-one is being 'victimised'. They are ensuring that we can all do what we say we can do, because they will only accept people with the skill sets that want that at the level they want. People with family here will be given a priority but most of us don't get in that way, and at some stage someone in that family still had to prove that they were skilled. It guarantees the quality of the skilled professionals here.
People without skills (as an employee, trade or business), family, or experience stand very little chance of getting in.
Doing the assessment first means that if someone fails they don't have to pay out the money for the full visa since for most of us that is the biggest cost.
If you're frustrated now just want until you're waiting for the medical results, visa stages or to sell your home!!! It gets worse before it gets better
We've all been through it in one form or another and it is worth it once you are here!

Newest Review: ... cinema but this inspired many other films and is still a great film today. The DVD comes with Sans Soleil an inferior sequel. Both are... more
A ground breaking cinematic experiment
La Jetee / Sans Soleil (DVD)
Member Name: huggy2009
La Jetee / Sans Soleil (DVD)
Date: 02/04/10
Advantages: Absolutely wonderful story and visuals
Disadvantages: It is short for the money and Sans Soleil is inferior
Even now this film is still absolutely ground-breaking, it first came to international prominence following the release of 12 Monkeys as its inspiration.
This is a film of a collection of still images with narrative made into a story.
The story as it is, is that a group of post World War 3 scientists attempt to send a heroic man back in time to the days pre-war to try and ensure the war is stopped.
They ask the man to concentrate on a boyhood memory whilst filling him with drugs to return to the past and this is where we see the iconic image of a man passing himself as a child. But once in the past the man has a dilemma, why would anyone return to a desolate post-apocolyptic future when the past seems so much more fun, so much easier and so much more relaxed.
Time travelling assassins are sent to destroy the messenger and the story progresses.
For me this is art film at its highest level, its unbelievable to think this ground breaking french piece of science fiction was made in 1962, it feels so fresh and scary today. The photographic images are exceptionally varied and wild and you forget that this is a series of still images and become lost in the story.
I would recommend this to anyone interested in the history of Science Fiction, or in ground breaking filmatic experiments. Chris Marker didn't do much else in the cinema but this inspired many other films and is still a great film today.
The DVD comes with Sans Soleil an inferior sequel. Both are dubbed and this is fine as the images tell a story in any language. The Dvd was quite rare until recently but costs £12.71 in Amazon.com.
Summary: A ground breaking cinematic experiment

New York–set films lead this supercut salute to the male full frontal (NSFW video)
We're number one! This video of male full frontals contains three—count 'em!—three scenes from New York–set films. We've never felt so proud.

It opens with Shame, then see if you can spot scenes from In the Cut and Fisher King. Feel free to replay as many times as needed until you confirm our findings.

A public hearing and informational meeting on the proposed budget will be held at 7 p.m. May 23 in the Dexter Regional High School cafetorium. Referendums will be held on adoption of the budget in the district communities June 12. Polls will be open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. at the Town Council chambers in Dexter and from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. at the Exeter town office, Garland town office and Ripley School. "I think the budget will allow us to maintain our present programs as well as provide those educational opportunities for our students in the future, and it will allow us to continue to take care of our facilities," Superintendent Raymond Poulin Jr. said Thursday. Two new positions — an English-social studies teacher and a curriculum coordinator — are included in the proposed $7.8 million budget. The spending plan represents an increase of $323,655 over the current year. The budget includes $125,000 in capital outlay to remove asbestos and replace some tile at the Dexter Primary School, to replace tile at the middle school and to shingle the roof at the Ripley School. Directors agreed to request $207,992 in local-option funds that are raised locally without state participation. This is the same amount that was raised last year. "We just felt it was inappropriate to ask locals for any more than what the state is requiring us to match," Poulin said. Ripley will face the greatest jump in school costs because the state valuation increased in the town. This year, the town paid $180,238, which represented 8.56 percent of school costs. Next year, the town will pay $210,070, which reflects 9.1 percent of school spending. In addition, other communities in the district will see the following increases in assessments: $113,389 in Dexter, $30,233 in Exeter, and $26,632 in Garland. |

Entertainment tickets and ticket fraud
In most cases you can only buy tickets for popular events from official designated ticket sellers. If you do purchase tickets from unauthorised sellers you could be left out of pocket and with no ticket. Even if the ticket you have bought from an unauthorised seller is genuine, you could still be refused entry to the event if the resale of tickets is not permitted.
Fraudsters are becoming increasingly sophisticated in their operations and can set up very convincing websites that look very similar to genuine ones.
So how can you protect yourself?
- Go direct to the venue or agents website and use their official links through to approved ticket suppliers
- Be cautious of sites selling tickets that are not yet on sale or guarantee tickets to events that have been sold out for months
- Investigate the company selling the tickets by entering their name into a search engine and seeing if there are any negative comments or information about the company
- Find out all the information about the ticket you are buying. How much it is being sold for? What is the actual value? Are there any additional charges? When will you get the ticket? What is their refund policy?
- If you do decide to purchase the ticket and before you enter any personal information online make sure the padlock symbol is present and check the prefix of the web address is https. The 's' means secure.
- Pay by credit card as you will have protection under the Consumer Credit Act for anything over £100
- Follow basic advice for safe shopping online by visiting Direct Gov's "Be Secure Online"

We all know that a great day always begins with a great start. And that means a healthy breakfast and – dare to dream – a morning routine that's designed to get you up and running in the best way possible.
An early morning jog (it doesn't have to be a marathon), cycle or swim helps get your body moving and gives you a kick start for the day ahead. Even if it's just 20 minutes you'll soon start to notice that it gets easier the more you do it. Even just doing something as simple as walking up the stairs instead of taking the lift will have a positive effect if you keep it up. How about getting off the bus one stop sooner? Simple, yet effective.
The best thing is that it doesn't take that much to do a little more – especially when you've had a healthy breakfast and enjoyed your daily Actimel. Together these simple, small steps will add up to making a big, healthy difference to the way you live. And that will make all the difference.
Don't forget to make Actimel a part of your daily changes. It tastes great so it is a perfect start to the day with your healthy breakfast and – and that means it's another small change that can make a big difference to your PMA. It's positive living at its best!
If you already enjoy Actimel every morning then why not mix it up a little? How about trying it on your cereal or using it to make a fresh fruit smoothie? Delicious!
How about some of these Actimel breakfast ideas? Give them a try. Or maybe you've got your own? Tell us and we'll publish them here – so that everyone can enjoy the same healthy start you do!

2K Marin's [redacted] is coming soon
- By 2K Games
- 2K Games
- |
- Tue Apr 23, 2013
The XCOM universe is expanding.
In the coming days the world will get a fresh look at the long-awaited squad-based tactical shooter in development at 2K Marin. Announced back in 2010, the game has undergone an evolution since we last showed it to you at E3 2011. Firaxis' critically acclaimed turn-based strategy title, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, has reignited the classic franchise and we feel that the time is right to deliver a new experience within the world of XCOM.
The creative development of this game has been a collaborative process of discovery and iteration. 2K's culture allows our studios the freedom to refine their visions, to explore new ideas, and to deliver the best possible experiences for players. Through this exploration, 2K Marin has refined their vision, and as a result the game has evolved into a high-stakes narrative experience imbued with core XCOM concepts.
The wait is nearly over and we can't wait to share more details with you about the game in only a matter of days.

Export prices, euro news help boost currency
San Francisco, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/15/2012 -- The launch of Europe's aid fund and a rise in commodity prices Tuesday helped drive the Australian dollar up from a three-month low on Monday.
Australia's top export, iron ore, enjoyed a boost in price to its highest point in over a month.
The Australian dollar strengthened against the U.S. dollar after European nations declared that a fund intended to shore up debt-laden countries was operational. The Aussie last week had suffered its steepest decline in five months.
The New Zealand dollar did not fare as well after credit-card borrowing dropped more than observers had expected. Rising prices of iron helped the Aussie, said Andrew Salter, a strategist for Australia & New Zealand Banking Group Ltd.
"There's a lack of bad macroeconomic news out there to push the Aussie lower," Salter, of Sydney, told Bloomberg News. "Anything that takes a euro catastrophe out of the equation is positive for risk sentiment."
On Monday, the Aussie reached its lowest point since July 13, at 1.0149 U.S. dollars, but Tuesday it gained 0.4% to hit 1.0231 U.S. dollars.
Iron ore with 62% content enjoyed its best close since Aug. 16, according to The Steel Index Ltd., rising 6% to 110.40 U.S. dollars a ton at Tianjin, China. China is Australia's largest trade partner.
The International Monetary Fund has reduced its forecasts for global growth, cooling gains for currencies in the South Pacific. The IMF expects 3.3% growth in the world economy this year and 3.6% in 2013. Those forecasts are down from 3.5% for 2012 and 3.9% for 2013 predicted in July.
A survey by National Australia Bank Ltd. has found business confidence improving from an negative measure in August. The bank surveyed over 400 companies from Sept. 18 to Oct. 1.
