in praise of good suppliers
2008-06-17 12:02:00 Tuesday 17: How on earth can I be eye-achingly busy yet manage to squander nosey time on someone who, from the little I know of them, comes across as slightly mean-spirited. I suppose it makes a change from the other dull-but-necessary tasks that seem to need doing. Finding out their views, on whatever, would raise ...

2008-06-10 20:51:00 For me, rain has always carried a special significance.

Rookie QBs receive praise
2008-06-09 06:00:00 Rookie quarterbacks Brian Brohm and Matt Flynn have been receiving praise from Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy after this past week's OTA practice open to the public.In a press conference following the practice McCarthy, in particular, singled out Brohm for the progress he is making."I'll tell you, Brian Brohm is as sharp a young quarterback that I have been around," McCarthy is quoted as saying, "and that's a big statement because I have been fortunate enough to coach some very bright quarterbacks in their first and second year in the league. I have been very impressed with the way he picks up the scheme and the way he is able to communicate it."In an interview with Aaron Rodgers that aired on ESPN's SportsCenter over the weekend, Rodgers said that he didn't think there would be a quarterback controversy with Brohm joining the Packers.McCarthy also had a few comments about Flynn and the team in general during his press conference."Matt is getting much better," said ...

Fatboy Slim-1998-Praise you [Maxi Cd]
2008-05-31 18:32:00 The Fatboy Slim album Better Living Through Chemistry marked Cook's emergence into the big time. Filled with retro samples and funk-laden grooves, the album was among the first in the then-new big beat sound. It also spawned one Top 40 UK hit, "Everybody Needs a 303". After Cook's remix of Cornershop's "Brimful of Asha" topped the charts, such musical heavy hitters as Madonna and U2 asked him to produce for them. Fatboy Slim's next work was the single "The Rockafeller Skank," released prior to the album You've Come a Long Way, Baby, both of which were released in 1998 to rave reviews. This album also produced the single "Praise You", which also became a major dance hit, giving Cook his first UK solo number one.

Let Us Now Praise Famous Suicides
2008-05-30 20:30:00 by Christopher Ketcham Suicide has gotten a bad rap. In our culture of endless imbecile optimism, the culture of self-help and medicated despair, we have lost respect for the suicide. For my part, I have on a few bad nights thought of suicide but never seriously; more contemplatively, as in: death is of course the other half of our equation, a partner always growing stronger. I have a pistol here at home: how to use it effectively? In the temple? Or up through the palate, directly into the brain? Coward thoughts because anodyne, without the context of real pain – you haven’t lived the long deaths of places like Iraq, the Congo, Colombia…the murmurings of one who’d like to have this balls-out vision of death and reflect on it as if it were cake. Still, to call the suicide a coward is an insult. The suicide enters the greatest unknown in human history. He steps willfully toward an abyss that the priests and philosophers build gossamer webs to conceal. Schopenh...

Praise for CIC from the Great White Way
2008-05-21 23:43:00 New York actor and friend of CIC Margot White recently made her Broadway debut in Aaron Sorkin's The Farnsworth Invention. Below is a letter Ms. White wrote after taking a workshop with CIC Executive Producer Angie McMahon and Children's Theater Director Dave Whalley. Sounds like she had a pretty wonderful experience!To Whom It May Concern:2008 started out as a great year for me in this profession. I was working in a Broadway show, had just booked my first two national commercials, and was going out consistently for TV/Film roles, but wasn?t booking. The problem was, I didn?t believe.That?s where Dave and Angie stepped in.I?ve had the good fortune to know Dave for more than 20 years now, and when I think of someone whose passion, understanding, and commitment to theatre and it?s many variations as art forms, Dave is the first name in my head. He?s as tried and true as they come; he not only knows the references, but he has the uncanny ability to step out of comfort zones and d...

China’s swift and open rescue efforts win praise
2008-05-15 02:16:00 China’s swift and open rescue efforts win praise Beijing appears to have drawn lessons from its handling of past crises By Peh Shing Huei   CHINA in crisis is showing a calm, competent and compassionate side that seems to be impressing the world. Three months before the public relations engine is to crank into action with the Olympics to showcase its arrival on the world stage, the Chinese government is already winning plaudits for its swift response to the earthquake. The state media’s blanket coverage of the 7.9-magnitude quake, and regular updates of casualty figures and rescue roadblocks, have also surprised many who are used to a Great Wall of Silence when bad news hits China. Pictures and television clips of the rescue efforts show a side of China that impresses: workers dressed in crisp outfits and fitted with proper gear, troops in orderly contingents, nurses well-turned out in their uniforms. Calm, organised, and compassionate - this is the compelling im...

At the beginning of the Rosary, the "Creed" and "Our Father" is replaced with: Mary, my Immaculate Mother, I desire to offer thee reparation for the offenses which thy Immaculate Heart receives from the horrible blasphemies which are uttered against thee. I offer thee these praises to console thee for so many ungrateful children who do not love thee, and to console the Heart of thy Divine Son Who is so deeply offended by the insults offered to thee. Receive, my Purest Mother, this little act of homage. Make me love thee more each day and look with pity on those blasphemers that they may not delay to cast themselves into thy maternal arms. Amen. On the large bead prior to each set of 10 beads, say: "Grant that I may praise thee, O Holy Virgin! Give me strength against thy enemies!" On the 10...

Praise as good as cash to Brain
2008-04-25 05:16:00 CHICAGO (Reuters) - Paying people a compliment appears to activate the same reward center in the brain as paying them cash, Japanese researchers said on Wednesday. They said the study offers scientific support for the long-held assumption that people get a psychological boost from having a good reputation. "We found that these seemingly different kinds of rewards -- a good reputation versus money -- are biologically coded by the same neural structure, the striatum," said Dr. Norihiro Sadato of the Japanese National Institute for Physiological Sciences in Okazaki, Japan. "This provides the biological basis of our everyday experience that personal reputation is felt as rewards," Sadato said in an e-mail. Sadato's team studied 19 healthy people using a brain imaging technique known as functional magnetic resonance imaging, or fMRI. In one set of experiments, people played a gambling game in which they were told one of three cards would yield a payout. The researchers then monitored t...

Praise is a Powerful Motivator
2008-04-23 08:05:00 "Few things in the world are more powerful than a positive push. A smile. A world of optimism and hope. A 'you can do it' when things are tough." -Richard M. DeVos, Co-founder of Amway, Richard M. DeVos books//I'm a very strong believer in the power of praise to influence behavior in others. As leaders, it is important to let people know the things that they do right and encourage them to repeat behaviors that produce good results.I really like the book How Full is Your Bucket by Tom Rath and Donald O. Clifton (Click here to purchase it). The book uses the metaphor of filling a bucket to illustrate the importance and impact of filling other people's souls with praise and positivity. Think you're good at filling buckets? Take the Positive Impact Test to see if you're right.Many people have the false perception that praise given too often will decrease productivity, or deplete the 'hunger' inside of others to do more than what is expected. In reality, the opposite is true...
In Praise of Bill Ayers and the Weather Underground
2008-04-22 10:59:00 by Dave Lindorff The pundits are having a heyday with Hillary Clinton's sleazy McCarthyite attack on Barack Obama, trying to link him to the Weather Underground because of his having served on a charity organization board with one of the Weathermen, Bill Ayers, who is currently a distinguished professor of education at the University of Illinois, and who is married to Bernadine Dohrn, another Weather Underground veteran. What has them in a lather is Ayer's comment, made a few years ago, that he has no regrets for the organization's having set off several bombs back in the early 1970s, and that in fact they "should have set off more." (Incidentally, as Robert Parry notes, those comments were made before 9-11, not, as Hillary Clinton charged duplicitously in the April 16 Philadelphia debate, right after 9-11.) In fact, it's important to remember that while three members of the Weather Underground died at their own hands because of a failed bomb they were c...

In Praise of Bad Debates
2008-04-20 15:27:00 I guess I'm a little late to the table on this, but I didn't actually see the ABC Democratic presidential debate the other night. I saw plenty of snippets and highlights, so I have a pretty good idea what transpired, but I had other plans which were, I think it's fair to say, infinitely more attractive than watching Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama lock horns for the 237th time.Anyway, Charlie Gibson and George Stephanopoulos have been pilloried ever since for the gotcha quality of the questions they asked the two Democratic contenders. One after another, the veteran newsreader and his diminutive sidekick inquired about each of the mini-controversies that have recently plagued the campaign. Obama seemed to get the worst of it, which greatly offended his blogosphere cheerleaders, but he's the frontrunner now, and that's the way these things go. Though Clinton did respond to pointed questions about her honesty, Obama had to fend off queries about his supposed elitism, his rel...

2008-04-14 02:00:00 Florida has been praised by two British property buyers who have just purchased a holiday home in the region. Heather and Kenny Mackintosh told the Sunday Mail that they spent a long time searching for an ideal property in Orlando before finding a house which meets their needs. Speaking to the newspaper, they said they are delighted with their three-bedroom townhouse, especially as they were able to secure it at a reasonable price. Mr Mackintosh commented: "The price suited us and - more importantly - we thought it would be a better place for family holidays." He added that their second home is also ideally located within reach of important amenities such as shops, an internet cafe and leisure outlets. Meanwhile, Florida has been recommended as a good destination for those who want to make the most of the weak pound. Tracey Painter of Travel Counsellors told the Eastern Daily Press that people can currently get two dollars for every pound. Since the pound is at an a...

Duffy thinks troubled stars like Britney Spears and Amy Winehouse are good role models. The "Mercy" singer believes it is healthy for fans to see their idols’ flaws because it shows everybody has problems in their lives. She said: "In a really weird way, I think those kind of people show others it’s all right to be human - for all their faults." Duffy, 23, says she has not always been a good girl, but is happy with her current quiet lifestyle. She added in an interview with Clash magazine: "I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my life, so don’t say I’m some kind of clean slate, virginal angel. But I’ve not got any issues right now, which is good." The Welsh star - whose record "Rockferry" is currently at number one in the UK album charts - also revealed she is still struggling t...

The Positive Effects of Praise
2008-04-03 17:53:00 "Leadership consists of nothing but taking responsibility for everything that goes wrong and giving your subordinates credit for everything that goes well." -Dwight D. Eisenhower, Former General and 34th President of the United States, Dwight D. Eisenhower books//Great leaders understand the importance of sharing credit with subordinates. The problem with giving all of the credit to others, though, is that it comes across as disingenuous. Leaders create the environment for success to occur, so they deserve recognition for what they do.Leaders must stand alone, though, in taking responsibility for things that goes wrong. By doing so, the leader earns respect from both superiors and subordinates. This respect is squandered, however, if the leader does not act quickly to course correct and hold others accountable for their actions.The leader's job is to set direction, monitor performance, provide feedback and create the environment in which followers are able to maximize performanc... |
