Player's Perspective
Music Store Live is proud to present this 1959 Martin D-28 Dreadnought! This vintage dread is ready for anything you can dish up. It's got a fat booming low end, shimmering mid range and crispy highs that cut through very sweetly. The neck is chunky and very comfortable in every position. We have this D-28 set up so well that it plays flawlessly everywhere. There's no buzzing on the neck and you can rip super fast anywhere you please. It's also a giant sounding strumming guitar. The neck is straight, the action is fairly low and and the intonation is very good. Listen for yourself in the clip below. This guitar is BRAZILLIAN ROSEWOOD at its very best.
Item Details
Since it first appeared in 1934 the Martin D-28 has set the standard by which all other dreadnoughts must be judged. This late 50's model is an excellent example of a vintage D-28 that has been well played and stood the test of time only to beg for more. This D-28 is all original with the exception of the nut, the bridge ( the original is included in the sale however ), the frets and there has been some overspray and finish work. The scalloped bracing has had some work as well and is structurally sound with no issues. The mahogany neck features a soft V profile,an ebony fretboard ( which has been leveled a bit during the refret ) and pearl dot inlays. The Grover patent pending tuners are original. The Brazilian rosewood sides and back quite striking and beautiful looking, particularly the sides. This D-28 comes with a newer SKB fitted hard shell case. The serial number is #169870.

Customer Testimonials
I will definitely be buying more equipment through your business and will recommend you to everyone I know....
Dear musicstorelive,
I want to take this opportunity to thank you all so much from the bottom of my heart for your excellent, professional service. The 350v63 Rickenbacker guitar is in perfect condition and exactly as described and I'm so very happy with my new guitar. This model Rickenbacker is what I have wanted for more than 30 years, and thanks to you guys my dream has finally come true. I will definitely be buying more equipment through your business and will recommend you to everyone I know. Thanks again.
- Grant Johnston
"Ben and his team are the absolute BEST! These guys not only know about instruments, they actually know about a little thing called CUSTOMER SERVICE! These guys saved me $$$ on my new Fender Deluxe American Ash P-Bass, I will spare the details as if everyone knew the kind of deal you can get here, they would have to close up shop, and I'm not ready for that yet. I could NOT believe it... the more I kept digging, the more cool little things I discovered... I am actually still trying to find out where I'm getting screwed here... I GIVE UP! Keep up the awesome job! (at this point, I am going to forego the string offer here... it just wouldn't be right). Thanks again!" -Iam Shocky |
The ES339 arrived. It's beautiful. It looks brand spanking new. And plays really well. I must admit I was nervous buying online. I felt I was risking a lot of money based on a "sales description". Your description of this guitar was conservative. I appreciate that because it is in better shape than you described it. Wow, is all I can say. Thanks for the honesty and then some. I couldn't be happier. What a lovely guitar. There really is a difference between a Custom Shop and normal Gibson production fit and finish quality. Here's a picture. So please don't worry, the guitar feels very secure in its new home. FYI, that's a Heritage 335 with Seth lovers and a Logan Tele with DeMarzio pups on a 5 way switch next to the 339. It's in good comfortable company. Thanks for a good deal and I'll look to you guys for my next purchase. -Todd, Connecticut |
The Spruce PRS and I have become very good friends. Thank you for the excellent service and communication. It was a seamless purchase and I could not be happier. The guitar arrived with exceptional packaging and in stunning condition. I cannot emphasize adequately how well the guitar and case were prepared and packed for shipment. THe guitar has a wonderful voice and a range of tone I have seldom seen in any guitar. The piezo by itself is remarkable and emulates an acoustic very well, especially when linked to an acoustic amp using the second output jack. The jazz tones are lush and round with an overtone of the woody sound. It's playability is superb and can scream if called for. The weight is a bit disorienting at first. Initially, it felt like a toy but time on the strings corrected that perception. I am still amazed at the sounds that come out of that 5.4 lb instrument. AS you can see in this photo, it has made friends with an old friend of mine, a 1965 Fender Princeton Reverb that has been with me for well over 20 years. I just re-tubed it and upgraded the speaker as the original Jensen P10Q id not come with it although it is otherwise mint, so warm meets warm. Thanks again, guys for the purchase and terrific support. Here are the newlyweds. -Jim |
"What can I say. MusicStoreLive.com ALWAYS has some great vintage stuff, but when I saw this one, it was all over! I had sold one exactly like it to a collector, some years back, and had always regretted it. When it comes to guitars, Ben at MusicStoreLive.com is someone who doesn't just sell them, but loves and appreciates a fine instrument, and recognizes it's unique qualities. He was GREAT to deal with. I just can't say enough about how professional and easy the transaction was. I actually consider Ben a friend now, and my wife and I really hope to get up to see him some time in the future!! You'll LOVE dealing with MusicStoreLive!!!" - Rick Rizzi |
"I was very skeptical about making a purchase online. These guys made it easy for me. They answered all my questions, maintained a professional attitude the entire time and they were more than willingly to work with me. The 2000 Warwick Thumb bass I purchased arrived last Thursday. It was expertly packaged and had a good set-up right out of the box. It is the last bass I will need to buy because it destroys everything else in my collection. I have worked with a lot of companies over the years and have never gotten the kind of service that I received from these guys. I would highly recommend this company for anyone looking to buy a quality instrument." -Lee Hinson |
Hi Ben, |
Hi guys....thanks for offering up another great prs...my second singlecut prs purchase from you! -Jeff Thibeau |
This thing is the real sound-heaven on earth!Greetings from Germany, |
Buying online can be very risky and one has to trust the honesty and integrity of the retailer....Hi, I've just received (as of yesterday) the white '79 Rickenbacker you sold me (April 25/26). I've left feedback on ebay and would have liked to have said more if there'd been the space to do so. The bass sounds amazing. I've got a 4003 model which is only a few years old, so it's interesting to compare the two. The sound of the older one is vastly superior. It's a truly beautiful instrument. Buying online can be very risky and one has to trust the honesty and integrity of the retailer. Your description of the '79 4001 was accurate; it was well photographed so I had a good idea of what I was buying. My anxiety was further allayed by the prompt and friendly emails from your salesperson, Paul. The most worrying time was when it was in customs in the UK! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you. Thanks again from a delighted customer. -Joan Bimson |
Let me reiterate to you my gratitude for how you have handled this situation. It is really refreshing to see a company be so honest and to take responsibility and action to ensure their customers get the best possible experience. I have been searching high and low for a reasonably priced Euphoria from a reputable dealer for a long time now, and I am really glad I went with you guys. A lot of folks would have probably simply said, "Sorry, we're out," and refunded me, but you people did the legwork to make sure I got what I asked for. I totally understand that minor mistakes happen even with the best of the best, but the poise, humility, and follow-through with which you have handled this has been nothing short of stellar. -Henry Smith |
She arrived this morning! What a fantastic surprise. It is everything I imagined it to be..........incredible tone, easy to play and strikingly beautiful. Thank you guys for delivering the truth and superb service as well as fine guitar! I just paused from 2 hours of continuous playing to write this note. I'll start playing again in a minute or so because I've waited a long time for a fine instrument like this and have a lot of catching up to do. PS, the strings are perfect for me, what did you use? Thanks a Million! Lee |
I just received the Axe From Hell. Beautiful LP Custom in perfect conditions. Il love the frets. |

How Do Parents Raise the Educational Attainment of Future Generations?
The problem with most intergenerational mobility estimates is that unmeasured and inherited abilities prevent us from drawing inferences. In this paper we estimate the intergenerational mobility of schooling and exploit differences between adopted and own birth children to obtain genetically unbiased estimates. Our results provide a much better insight on whether parents (and policy makers) can actually stimulate the educational attainment of future generations. Controlling for inherited abilities and assortative mating we find that the association between mother's (but not father's) and child schooling disappears.

Fireworks exploded across Berlin on Sunday as delirious supporters cheering the 1-0 victory thronged the streets and honking cars snaked their way through crowds with black, red and gold German flags flapping in the wind. (Agencies) Latest News from Sports News Desk
More than 250,000 fans jumped for joy in the heart of the capital, many singing "Oh, it's beautiful!" and chanting "Super Deutschland".
"We're going to party all night," said Bianca Hoffmann, 35, who travelled to Berlin from the western state of North Rhine-Westphalia to join in the country's biggest World Cup gathering.
The city closed the so-called Fan Mile to traffic behind the Brandenburg Gate, the symbol of national unity to make way for revellers basking in the German side's glory in its thrilling showdown against Argentina.
"This victory is hugely important -- it's my first!" said Carsten Glaser, 20.
While the Germans were a "team", he said, "Argentina only had (Lionel) Messi."
On nearby Potsdamer Platz, cleaved in two by the despised Berlin Wall until its fall a quarter-century ago, one young man jumped on the roof of a public bus as raucous supporters blocked streets for traffic.
And on the chic shopping avenue Kurfuerstendamm in the west of the capital, traditionally a venue for major sports celebrations, fans set off firecrackers and waved giant flags.
Many supporters saw the victory as having a deeper historical resonance which came a long 24 years after West Germany beat Argentina in 1990 and just months before the country overcame its Cold War division.
"This victory is important for reunified Germany," Thorsten Kinscher, a 34-year-old employee in the shipping industry, said.
"It shows we are really in this together," behind a team of players from the former west and the ex-communist east, he said.
Crowds surpassed the announced 200,000 maximum capacity on the Fan Mile hours before the match, an event spokeswoman said.
Braving intermittent showers, vendors did a booming business in currywurst, a local speciality of sausage smothered in spicy ketchup, and plastic cups of beer.
Millions more huddled in front of screens at beer gardens, bars, sports clubs and sitting rooms across the country to watch the match from Rio de Janeiro's legendary Maracana stadium.
Congratulations from space
Normally a rare sight due to the country's militaristic past, German flags fluttered from street lamps and supporters' shoulders, worn like superhero capes.
Revellers young and old, male and female donned Mohawk wigs, bunny ears and cowboy hats in the national colours, as well as Hawaiian-style garlands of plastic flowers in black-red-gold.
Anett Voelker, 42, said it had been an agonising 24-year wait for a fourth star for the German jerseys.
"It's been a super championship for reunited Germany – a feeling of even greater unity," she said.
At half-time, with the match tied at 0-0 after a nerve-jangling series of near-misses for each side, some fans started to lose their swagger.
"The Germans aren't playing well -- Argentina is better," said 18-year-old Tom Ulmann, tiny German flags painted on his cheeks.
"If it continues like this we're going to lose," he added.
Germany had led Brazil 5-0 at the same point in the semi-final match last Tuesday, which they went on to win by a jaw-dropping 7-1.
But a desperately awaited goal in overtime by Mario Goetze revived spirits and the final whistle sealed the celebration.
"I am so surprised and relieved," said Frank Wegner, a 45-year-old from Brandenburg state outside Berlin.
Alexander Gerst, a German living on the International Space Station, tweeted his congratulations from the heavens.
"As an expert on the issue of stars, we got one," he wrote above a picture of himself pointing to a fourth star on his Germany jersey.

2016 Hawke's Bay Winery of the Year
A dedicated couple working and living their dream...
New Zealand winemaker Emma Lowe & Chilean vineyard manager Marcelo Nunez travelled from Chile to the foothills of the Kaweka Ranges to establish their vineyard and winery. The couple selected a site on the banks of the Ngaruroro River in Crownthorpe, a cooler, higher altitude district of the Hawke's Bay. Here they live and work, hand crafting fine wines exclusively from grapes grown on their 22ha vineyard.
Emma graduated with a degree in winemaking from Adelaide University (Australia) and has since made wines in Australia, Switzerland, South Africa, France, Chile and New Zealand. Marcelo has been extensively involved in both viticulture and winemaking in Chile and New Zealand.
Monowai Estates 22 ha vineyard is located on the northern banks of the Ngaruroro River in Hawke's Bay's Crownthorpe district.
The soil type is free draining red gravel with a thin top layer of silt loam. Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Merlot, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc are planted, which are ideally suited to these soils and climate.
The grapevines are trained to increase fruit intensity and consistency. Hand thinning ensures low yields and leaf plucking maximizes sunlight and air movement through the vines.
The Monowai winery was commissioned in 2005. It has been designed with premium production in mind.
Emma drew on her extensive experience of working in many wineries around the world to design the ideal winery for Monowai's requirements. This includes four separate temperature controlled barrel rooms and temperature controlled stainless steel tanks to control fermentation, maximising varietal characteristics. The winery design allows for minimum labour input to ensure Emma has total control over the entire winemaking process.

I am a successful business woman and love what I do. I am a devoted Mom to a now 17 years old attending high school. I am also an independent, financially secure woman and have been, till now, very content and satisfied with my routines and the path my life has taken. But I can feel the clawing twinges of change coming, demanding my attention. Change, never painless, but so necessary for personal growth and life. Is it not? Well, I am ready to move on. I am here on this dating site-a painful compromise for me, and, I suspect, for most of us who are here-to look for the gentleman who will assuage my restlessness and loneliness, a man to satisfy my longings on an intellectual, emotional and physical level. So this is my self advertisement on this dating site. These are the qualities I have to offer to my future companion and mate. Warmth, understanding, compassion, empathy, curiosity, intellectual stimulation, generosity, loyalty, support, strength, attention, respect, responsiveness, a listening ear, sensitivity, sensibility, practicality, encouragement, total honesty, trust, a depth of love not many can feel, passion, touching, hugs. I am loving and caring and have a good, albeit, dry sense of humor. I am looking for a companion. Someone to talk to, do things with, be close to. A friend. A lover.

You can measure a software system's value by its modularity. The more modular the system, the easier it is to produce and extend. Aspect-oriented programming technologies aim to improve system modularity by modularizing crosscutting concerns. Global properties and programming and design issues can lead to crosscutting concerns--for example, error handling or transaction code, interacting features, and reliability and security.
The guest editors introduce aspect-oriented programming and describe this special issue's articles, which explain the use of aspect-oriented programming to simplify enterprise and system software, the need to expand an interface's meaning in the presence of aspects, and the application of aspects to design and requirements activities.

Parenting is a lesson in give and take — both between you and your children, and you and your partner. However, with compromise, you can parent successfully when you and your child's other parent have different styles, just like these parents do.
Parenting compromises come in many forms, but some areas of contention are more common than others. For example, Niki, mom of one, said that discipline is an area where she and her husband compromise the most, and that's common in many families. "I'm generally harder on Lucas than Randy is, though sometimes he's harder on Lucas than I am," she explained. "A lot of it depends on what the action was that needed addressing. When we were potty training Lucas and he had an accident because he wanted to play instead of going on the potty, Randy told him he couldn't watch TV or play with his favorite toys. We had to compromise because I thought that was too harsh, so he wasn't allowed to play with his favorite toy for a day."
Another common talking point between parental units is diet. This can involve junk food versus healthy food, for example, or ethical dieting choices, such as what Jana and her husband have compromised over — he is vegan, whereas she is not. "Our compromise is that our son eats vegetarian at day care and anything we'd like when he's at home (so we can control for quality, organic, etc.)," she told us. "It also means that he'll be able to join everyone else in eating birthday cake when he's older and can try whatever he'd like off my plate now."
Becky found that, although her partner was a little sneaky, compromising over bottles made things a little easier. "He would sneak a bottle (of breast milk) from time to time with the baby," she said. "I'd always get furious to the point of tears. In hindsight, I think it helped with him taking a bottle with no issues when I went back to work. I compromised because even though I was entirely against it at the beginning, I had to remember that his dad probably wanted to bond with him in some form as well."
No matter what areas you need to give and take a little over, compromising can really help open up lines of communication within your family unit. Melissa from Texas has found that working together as a team has always worked for her relationship and family. "If we disagree on something we generally talk about it," she said. "Explaining why on both of our choices and try to come up with something that we can both agree on. But in general, we usually have the same thoughts on how to handle things."

Kim Kardashian: Dumped by Reggie Bush! Dating a Saudi Billionaire!
by Hilton Hater at . CommentsSo much for a pretend elopement. Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush have now gone through a fake breakup.
According to Life & Style, Bush has "been seeing" a Kim lookalike, despite the fact that Kardashian believed these two would give it another shot after she divorced Kris Humphries.
"Reggie's her one true love," an anonymous friend told the tabloid. "He could easily fire things up with Kim now, but he's chosen not to."
But don't cry too hard for Kim, people! Star Magazine claims she has many other options, namely a Saudi billionaire who gave her his phone number when she was in Dubai last November.
"She wants to be taken care of," a source tells this magazine. "She's done being a sugar mama."

An ailing economy strikes again, and this time levels one of the most well-known names in electronics retailers. Circuit City officially announced on Friday that they will be shutting down all stores, and in the process liquidating all merchandise in those stores. There's approximately 34, 000 employees for the retail stores across the United States, all of whom will soon be jobless. There's a 60 day notice for all employees losing jobs and anyone dismissed earlier receives pay and benefits for that 2 months. The retail chain cites the bleak economy and challenges to their business as reasons they will need to liquidate all store items in order to pay creditors. Hopes for emerging from Chapter 11 Bankruptcy have been squashed for the company which has existed for 60 years.
As for the liquidation sales, those start at many stores on Saturday, January 17, 2009. If you've been mulling over getting a new piece of electronics such as a Blu-Ray DVD player, LCD HDTV or new laptop, this just may be your opportunity. The Circuit City website reveals no details of any of the clearance deals, so you'll need to stop in and check out your local stores. CircuitCIty.com has more details, in fact that's all it has now, a page of text discussing the store's closing.
See all the details about Circuit City's closing here.

Sports Direct owner Mike Ashley admits review found unpleasant surprises
Witnesses: Mike Ashley, Executive Deputy Chairman, Sports Direct International
Mike Ashley has told MPs that the ongoing investigation into Sports Direct will never be completed.
He claims there is no time span for when you try to stop improving things. He has agreed with the committee that in some ways he is not the best person to carry out the review, but believes that he is the best person in the short term.
He accepts that he does not have a comprehensive expertise in HR but that he is most able to instigate changes. He admits he has discovered some unpleasant surprises during the process of the review.
He has not spoken to the trade unions, but claims he will speak to them again at the AGM. This is the only time he personally intends to speak with them.
If you clock off at 5pm at Sports Direct and are searched at the end of your day, you will not be paid for the extra time taken – but Ashley claims it does not take long and that people should flow through very quickly.
When asked to describe the culture at Sports Direct Ashley says it is a hardworking culture and that the rewards must be good. He claims to value the people above all else.
Ashley claims there are lots of surveys and secret-shopper type reviews of Sports Direct, but that he does not read the results. He claims it is better that he is presented with any red flags so that he can address them directly.
Ashley is unsurprised when he is told that Transline's survey got replies from 45 people out of around 2,000 and suggests that it is better for him to speak to people in person. Considering the accusations that the company operates a culture of fear, this is naturally met with some scepticism.
Some criticisms are addressed one-by-one:
- There was a system in place that if an employee was a minute late, they would be docked for 15 minutes pay. Ashley says that, as he understands it, this has been changed. He claims he does not know who put it in place or when it started, and says he honestly does not believe it is fair.
- Sports Direct does not award over-time pay for working late, and this has not been rectified.
- He claims that criticising workers over the tannoy is a bit of a myth.
Ashley says he is "100% unaware" of a female employee who claims she was offered a full-time contract in return for sexual favours.
When quoted the statistics for ambulance calls at Sports Direct, Ashey believes there was some over-reaction and that staff should have been sat down with a glass of water to see if they felt better.

The Fix
Does Mark Caguioa think you're amazing, just the way you are?
It has been two games, but we still couldn't decide who inspired Mark Caguioa's new hairstyle. We're sort of thinking it's Bruno Mars, but we're open to other suggestions:
It hasn't been the best stretch for Caguioa, who was injured in Ginebra's game against Alaska last Wednesday, just days after publicly complaining about his playing time. But here's some good news for Ginebra fans: the injury is just a minor sprain, and Caguioa will probably be back for the team's next assignment against the Petron Blaze Boosters on December 2.
Anyway, as our way of wishing him to get well soon, here are photos detailing the evolution of Caguioa's hairdo just this conference. His stylist must be doing great business.
The Jose Rizal look.
The Allen Iverson look.
The P185 Bench Fix haircut look.

text: Which TVs are the Most Reliable? Flat Ones.Mark Wilson11/03/07 8:00pmFiled to: Buyer BewareDisplaysGadgetsLCDPeripheralsTVsDlpHome EntertainmentPlasmarear-projection35EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Consumer Reports' Annual Product Reliability Survey will be featured in their upcoming December issue. Its news? Flat panel displays are far more reliable than their rear-projection counterparts. Just how much more reliable? Around 15% 500%. Advertisement The study showed that both LCDs and plasma displays needed repairs, on average, only 3% of the time. Meanwhile, rear-projection sets had an overall necessity of repairs of 18%. And the worst culprits in rear-projection were DLP TVs. Yeah, apparently those millions of tiny mirrors need millions of tiny fixes—which is really too bad, since my eye favors good DLP over LCD and plasma any day.Consumer Reports' other conclusion was that neither repair prices nor rates on either type of TV warranted warranties.

FLAG-tag, or FLAG octapeptide, is a polypeptide protein tag that can be added to a protein using recombinant DNA technology. It can be used for affinity chromatography, then used to separate recombinant, overexpressed protein from wild-type protein expressed by the host organism. It can also be used in the isolation of protein complexes with multiple subunits.
A FLAG-tag can be used in many different assays that require recognition by an antibody. If there is no antibody against the studied protein, adding a FLAG-tag to this protein allows one to follow the protein with an antibody against the FLAG sequence. Examples are cellular localization studies by immunofluorescence or detection by SDS PAGE protein electrophoresis.
The peptide sequence of the FLAG-tag from the N-terminus to the C-terminus is: DYKDDDDK (1012 Da). It can be used in conjunction with other affinity tags, for example a polyhistidine tag (His-tag), HA-tag or Myc-tag. It can be fused to the C-terminus or the N-terminus of a protein. Some commercially available antibodies (e.g., M1/4E11) recognize the epitope only when it is present at the N-terminus. However, other available antibodies (e.g., M2) are position-insensitive.

CD1B contains 1 Ig-like (immunoglobulin-like) domain and belongs to the CD1 family. CD1 family members are transmembrane glycoproteins, which are structurally related to the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) proteins and form heterodimers with beta-2-microglobulin. During protein synthesis and maturation, they bind endogenous lipids that are replaced by lipid or glycolipid antigens when the proteins are internalized and pass through endosomes, before trafficking back to the cell surface. CD1B localizes to late endosomes and lysosomes via a tyrosine-based motif in the cytoplasmic tail, and requires vesicular acidification to bind lipid antigens.. It is expressed on cortical thymocytes, epidermal Langerhans cells, dendritic cells, on certain T-cell leukemias, and in various other tissues. CD1B is an antigen-presenting protein that binds self and non-self lipid and glycolipid antigens and presents them to T-cell receptors on natural killer T-cells.

text: Flirting At Work May Be More Beneficial Than You ThinkFast Company12/03/10 1:38pmFiled to: working girlFlirting workWorkSexGenderFemininityMasculinityStereotypesCareersRepublishedtweet101EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalinkAlthough women make up half of the nation's workforce, they hold only 16.4% of corporate offices in the Fortune 500, 14.7% of Fortune 500 board seats and 1.6% of Fortune 500 CEO positions (Catalyst 2007). So what's new here?AdvertisementResearch that explains what may be going on at work. According to researchers Tinsley, Cheldelin, Schneider, and Amanatullah, who authored "Women at the Bargaining Table: Pitfalls and Prospects" women are in a classic double bind: "women may be perceived as competent but unlikable or as likable but incompetent." This bind exists because there are very strong female stereotypes in our culture.Of course this is not news to any woman in the field, but these researchers discovered that "women who violate gendered expectations incur negative social consequences. In other words, evaluators tend to make negative judgments about women who behave in masculine ways to fulfill the needs of their jobs."AdvertisementBut if masculine means assertive, self-reliant and powerful, you can see how easily a woman can get screwed in the eyes of her beholders. This is often referred to as backlash and because women fear backlash they often don't act in their best interests. The researchers found that both men AND women negatively evaluate women who do not behave in stereotypically female ways.The choices then are these—work within the stereotypes or be careful in situations to not activate gender stereotypes.The researchers point to an experiment that looked at flirting in a negotiation context. When both women and men flirted in the negotiation, women were perceived as more likable. As the researchers noted, because flirting is seen as more stereotypically feminine behavior, the women may have benefited from using it. Furthermore, the "flirting had no impact on the measure of the female negotiator's perceived competence, although it did diminish her perceived trustworthiness."SponsoredFurther, the researchers found that gender stereotypes are usually not activated in contexts where resources are abundant ("Threats tend to heighten the negative stereotypes of both individuals and other social groups."), the woman is the boss or when women act for the benefit of others. Women acting for the benefit of others, like their teams, is consistent with the stereotypes we have of women, that they are collaborative and nurturing.Not everyone works within gender stereotypes, but as they are subconsciously pervasive, the argument is that it's important to understand that these stereotypes are often at play. And hopefully that will help us level the playing field.Republished from FastCompany.com. Authored by Alicia Morga.AdvertisementWant to see your work here? Email us!Reply101 repliesLeave a reply

Player Profile … DT Anthony Toribio
As the lockout continues, we are trying to provide a very personal look at some of the unknown players on the roster that might be able to step up and provide some help on the field during the 2011 season. Last week we featured WR Verran Tucker. This week it's DT Anthony Toribio.
Like his teammates with the Chiefs, DT Anthony Toribio is out there working hard and trying to be ready to go when the 2011 does get started. San Diego Union-Tribune columnist Nick Canepa found a bunch of NFL players working out the other day in Carlsbad, California, at Velocity Sports Performance. One of those players was Toribio.
Wrote Canepa:
"Toribio, all 6-1, 305 pounds of him, is the character in the group. He isn't from this area, having performed for Carson-Newman in Tennessee. But he's from Miami, and he likes the sun and loves to skateboard. And treats. On Fridays, he breaks fast and makes a run to the acclaimed Leucadia Donut Shoppe for apple fritters.
"The lockout sucks, but I've come out to get in quality work," he says. "Fridays are great, my cheating days, when I go for donuts and do some skateboarding.
"This is about being a pro. This is going to be a test to show coaches who's been working out. I look at it as being a professional. You can't just jump into training camp; it'd be like running without warming up."
Here's more on Toribio.
Anthony Terrell Toribio (pronounced tuh-rib-EE-oh).
Born – March 1, 1985, in Miami, Florida.
Family – Parents are still in Miami area. His father was born in the Dominican Republic and his mother is of Cuban ancestory.
May 5 – After not being selected in the 2008 NFL Draft, Toribio was signed as a college free agent
August 30 – Released by the Dolphins on the final pre-season cutdown to a 53-man roster.
September 2 – Signed to the practice squad by Miami.
November 11 – Released from the practice squad by the Dolphins.
November 13 – Signed to the practice squad by Green Bay.
December 18 – Signed to the Packers active roster.
September 9 – Released by Green Bay in final pre-season roster cut to 53 players.
September 10 – Signed to the practice squad by Green Bay.
December 30 – Signed to the Packers active roster.
September 4 – Released by Green Bay in final pre-season roster cut to 53 players.
September 5 – Claimed on waivers by the Chiefs.
Height – 6-feet, 1¼ inches.
Weight – 304 pounds.
Toribio was part of the graduating class of 2008 at Carson-Newman University in Jefferson City, Tennessee.
After sitting out his freshman year with a redshirt season, Toribio played four years for the Eagles and head coach Ken Sparks. In 34 games, he produced 62 total tackles, 21.5 TFL, 10 sacks, 6 passes broken up (PBU), 3 quarterback hurries (QBH) and 1 blocked kick.
In his time playing for the Eagles, they won a pair of conference championships and finished with a 35-9 record.
2007 – Helping Carson-Newman to a SAC championship, Toribio played in all 11 games and earned second-team all-conference defense honors. He had 28 total tackles, 12 TFL, 6 sacks, 1 QBH and 2 PBUs. In winning the conference title the Eagles went 10-1 on the season.
(Pictured left – Toribio with the Packers, pushing Rudy Niswanger out of the way and making a tackle.)
2006 – Toribio was named to the second-team all-conference defense, playing in 9 games and picking up 12 tackles, with 6.5 TFL, 2 sacks and 1 PBU. The Eagles were 8-3 on the season.
2005 – Playing in 9 games he was named second-team all-conference defense, Toribio finished the season with 16 tackles, 3 tackles for loss, 2 sacks and 2 QB hurries. Carson Newman finished 8-2 on the season.
2004 – He played in five games during his first season with the Eagles, contributing six tackles, 1 PBU and 1 blocked kick. That year Carson-Newman went 9-3 and 1-1 in the Division 1-AA playoffs, beating Fayetteville State 35-14, before losing to Valdosta State 38-12.
2003 – Redshirt season.
Toribio is a member of the 2003 graduating class at Miami Central Senior High School, part of the Miami-Dade County Public Schools System. He played three seasons of varsity football for head coach Anthony Saunders and the Rockets program. This was a school that produced NFL players like OT Bruce Armstrong, RB Willis MacGahee and RB Najeh Davenport.
He also participated in track and field at Miami Central.
2002 – Toribio was a starter on a Rockets team that went 5-5 on the season and lost in the Florida 6A regional quarterfinals to Plantation High 28-23.
2001 – He was a part-time starter for a MCHA team that went 10-3 on the season and picked up two victories in the Florida 6A playoffs against Hialeah and (Sunrise) Piper, before losing to (Ft. Lauderdale) Dillard 26-25.
2000 – The Rockets went 8-4 and Toribio saw limited playing time as a sophomore. They beat Miami Palmetto 26-25 in the Florida 6A playoffs, but then fell to Miami Jackson 30-15.

Dieulafoy disease of the colon.
Abstract: |
* Dieulafoy disease is a rare cause of upper gastrointestinal
hemorrhage (usually gastric) and an even rarer cause of colonic
bleeding. There is a sudden onset of catastrophic bleeding in a
previously healthy individual, which cannot be managed conservatively.
Although this entity can be diagnosed and treated by endoscopy and
angiography, the knowledge of its existence in colon is critical to
making the diagnosis because of its small size. In an era of widespread
use of endoscopy, the pathologists uncommonly receive resection
specimens for Dieulafoy lesions. However, the diagnosis can be missed
because of the small size of the lesion and the almost normal appearance
of the mucosa. Awareness of its existence will provide an answer for
otherwise unexplained gastrointestinal hemorrhage. (Arch Pathol Lab Med. 2009;133:1865-1867) |

Dieulafoy disease, first described by Gallard in 1884, and named
so, by Dieulafoy, in 1898, is a rare cause of sudden onset, catastrophic
upper gastrointestinal bleeding. (1) It is defined as an abnormally
large artery that retains a large caliber as it approaches the mucosa.
The reported incidence as a cause of upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage
varies from 0.3% to 6.7% and 1% to 2% in resection specimens. (2)
Although rare, this entity is being reported more frequently because of
widespread use of endoscopy. Only 38 cases were reported, to our
knowledge, before 1973, but since then, there has been an exponential
increase, and more than 200 cases of Dieulafoy disease have been
reported. (3) Dieulafoy disease is also known as Dieulafoy lesion or ulcer, caliber persistent artery, gastric aneurysm, gastric arteriosclerosis, submucosal arterial malformation, cirsoid aneurysm, and solitary exulceration simplex. The most common location is the lesser curvature of stomach, within 6 cm of the cardia. The reason for the predominance of location at this site is that the submucosal arteries in the lesser curvature are direct branches of the left gastric artery, whereas in the rest of the stomach, the submucosal vessels are of much smaller caliber because of their serial branching. Interestingly, coexistence of the lesion with prior gastric surgery has been noted with increased frequency. (4) The cause of the disease is unknown, with some believing it could be congenital, whereas others propose it to be an acquired condition. (2,4,5) Of late, there have been increasing reports of extragastric Dieulafoy disease. It has been reported in the lip, esophagus, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, right transverse, left colon, rectum, (2) anal canal, (3) gall bladder, and bronchus. In fact, one-third of cases in a recent series were extragastric in location.6 Barbier (7) reported colonic Dieulafoy disease for the first time in 1985. Since then, 10 cases have been reported in colon, with 9 involving the right colon. (1,2,8,9) Thus, left-sided colonic involvement is quite rare. The disease usually occurs in males, and there is a wide age range at time of occurrence, with reports of cases occurring in infants as well as individuals up to 93 years old. (2) The presentation in all ages is the same, with sudden onset of extensive bleeding. Because the bleeding is arterial, the amount of blood lost is large. The bleeding is usually intermittent, and even if it stops spontaneously, the likelihood that the patient will rebleed is high. Depending upon the site of bleeding, the patients present with hematemesis, melena, hematochezia, hemoptysis, or hemodynamic instability only. There is a report of a patient bleeding from a surgically created rectal mucous fistula. (10) Although Dieulafoy disease has no direct disease associations, alcohol intake and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug use are said to increase the chances of bleeding from a gastric lesion by causing mucosal erosions. In the colon, solid bowel contents lead to stercoral ulceration with resultant exposure of the abnormal artery and hemorrhage. (2) There are reports of Dieulafoy disease occurring in patients with classic polyarteritis nodosa (11) and abnormal von Willebrand factor. (12) Interestingly, there have been 3 recurrences, to our knowledge, of Dieulafoy lesion. (11) In 1962, Voth (13) put forward the theory of the caliber persistent artery. Voth postulated that the artery fails to taper as it reaches the mucosa but is otherwise normal. Miko and Thomazy, (5) who carried out measurements of the diameter of mucosal and submucosal arteries of patients with Dieulafoy lesion as well as control subjects, support that theory. The mean diameter of pathologic arteries at the level of muscularis mucosae was found to be 1.08 mm (0.39 SD), versus normal arteries having 0.1 mm (0.01 SD) diameter. By serial sectioning, they also demonstrated that there is an accompanying vein, which may also play a role in bleeding. A Dieulafoy lesion remains asymptomatic unless mucosal erosion exposes the underlying artery, causing it to bleed. Normally, a network of musculoelastic fibers surrounds and tethers the big branches of arteries entering the submucosa to the muscularis propria. Because the artery reaches close to the muscularis mucosae in Dieulafoy disease, such fibers hold the artery to the muscularis mucosae as well. There is no free, overlying submucosa to allow movement of the mucosa over the submucosa, and the pulsations of the artery cause mucosal damage. Mucosal erosions expose the artery, predisposing it to further injury and bleeding. Also, the artery raises the mucosa overlying it, making it vulnerable to injury. [FIGURE 1 OMITTED] [FIGURE 2 OMITTED] [FIGURE 3 OMITTED] All these studies have been done on gastric lesions. Because gastric and colonic lesions are identical histologically, the same mechanisms may be extrapolated to play a role in colonic Dieulafoy disease. PATHOLOGIC FEATURES Macroscopically, dormant colonic Dieulafoy lesion appears like a pseudopolyp at colonoscopy. Characteristically, attempted polypectomy at colonoscopy by electro-snare leads to heavy bleeding. Actively bleeding lesions show arterial spurting, and the caliber of the artery may approach 1 to 2 mm. The mucosal erosion usually measures 3 to 5 mm, and the surrounding mucosa typically appears normal endoscopically. (1-4) Microscopically, the submucosal artery is seen impinging on, and often eroding through, the muscularis mucosae (Figure 1). Apart from this artery having an abnormally large caliber at this site, there is no obvious abnormality of the arterial wall, and there is no vasculitis. The lesion is usually a single one and always shows an elastic lamina (Figures 2 and 3). Only the overlying mucosa shows erosion, and the surrounding mucosa appears normal histologically. If the artery has bled, an attached thrombus may be seen. No other microscopic abnormalities have been documented, to our knowledge. DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS The most important differential diagnosis for Dieulafoy disease is angiodysplasia because both are right sided and present with sudden onset of massive lower gastrointestinal bleeding. On angiography, vascular ectasia and arteriovenous shunting is seen in angiodysplasia, but these features are absent in Dieulafoy disease. Histologically, findings of abnormal submucosal arteries and veins are seen in angiodysplasia, whereas Dieulafoy disease is characterized by mucosal erosion overlying an eroded, large, submucosal, abnormally superficial artery. Dieulafoy disease should also be separated from other causes of lower gastrointestinal bleeding, like diverticular disease; telangiectasias (which may be associated with Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome, Turner syndrome, and systemic sclerosis); vascular neoplasms; advanced liver disease causing mucosal spider nevi, which can cause bleeding similar to Dieulafoy disease14; and disorders of connective tissues affecting blood vessels. All these conditions can be distinguished from each other on the basis of clinical presentation and endoscopic and angiographic findings, thus making a biopsy rarely necessary. CONCLUSION Dieulafoy disease of the colon is a rare cause of massive lower gastrointestinal hemorrhage. The treatment is endoscopic or arteriographic, and resection is performed in only 5% of cases when control of bleeding has not been achieved by other first-line modalities. (2) Pathologists need to be aware of the existence of this rare entity as a possible cause of extensive lower gastrointestinal tract bleeding and to differentiate it from other etiology.

Kitted out for the Titanic evening are, from left, Suzanne Shaw-Yates, Lauren Shaw-Yates, 11, and William Shaw-Yates. Picture by Robin Crossley.
SO POPULAR was a night to celebrate the maiden voyage of the doomed liner, Titanic, that a Seaview hotel staged another to mark its sinking.
The Northbank Hotel was overwhelmed by interest in its first Night of the Titanic and staged it again earlier this month.
Those attending wore period costume and actors staged a mini drama before diners enjoyed a menu that could have been enjoyed on board 100 years ago.
Titanic expert Denis Cochrane brought a beautifully crafted model of the ill-fated Titanic to the hotel and memorabilia to add to the atmosphere.
Michael Shaw-Yates, who runs the Northbank with his wife, Mary, said: "The main organiser of the evenings was our son, William. There was a great atmosphere on both nights and funds were raised for the Royal British Legion and for the RNLI too."
