Browsing Department of Operations Management (OM/PEØ) by Title
An International ViewKotzab, Herbert; Teller, Christoph; Grant, David B. (Frederiksberg, 2011)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper discusses factors affecting the execution of supply chain management and presents a conceptual model and six hypotheses based on such factors identified in the literature. The model was tested in two European country-specific cases using structural equation modelling. Findings in both cases confirm the hypothesized hierarchical order of three proposed antecedents: 'internal SCM conditions' affect 'joint SCM conditions' which in turn influences collaborative 'SCM-related processes'. Managerial implications are that firms in both countries should adopt these hierarchical steps to ensure a rigorous and appropriate approach to achieving full and integrative SCM.

Obed Madsen, Søren (Frederiksberg, 2012)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Although a strategy, in theory, should help the organization to move in the same direction by showing a direction for the organization, in practice the strategy increases the number of possible paths, as managers translate the strategy into their own context. This increases the number of strategies in the organization, and it becomes difficult to get an overview of the interaction and relationships between the translated strategies. The managers distinguish between the different parts of the strategy, such as the abstract words or intention, and the concrete as targets and projects. Managers use the various parts of the strategy in different contexts, but still speak about "strategy" even if they have changed dimension like the words and KPIs. Another dimension is that the managers also perceive the strategy as correct, but irrelevant, which is linked to their distinction between the abstract and the concrete in the strategy. The abstract dimension is perceived as being true, while the effet of the strategy may be irrelevant for certain managers. The strategy is also used as documentation for senior management intentions. This allows other players to gain insight into top management's thinking, take 2 countermeasures, resist in an elegant way, or just prepare to argue his case within the logic of the strategy.

A network management perspectiveSundtoft Hald, Kim; Sigurbjornsson, Tomas (Frederiksberg, 2013)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The aim of this research is to explore the managerial role of category managers in purchasing. A network management perspective is adopted. A case based research methodology is applied, and three category managers managing a diverse set of component and service categories in a global production firm is observed while providing accounts of their progress and results in meetings. We conclude that the network management classification scheme originally developed by Harland and Knight (2001) and Knight and Harland (2005) is a valuable and fertile theoretical framework for the analysis of the role of the category manager in purchasing.

a literature study and a preliminary modelBøge Sørensen, Lars (København, 2004)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Keywords Supply Chain Management, Risk Management, Supply Chain Risk Management Abstract To comply with Supply Chain Management dogma companies have cut their inventories to a minimum, lead times have been shortened, new suppliers have been chosen and the customer portfolio has been reduced. All of these activities impose a great deal of risk on the firms, jeopardizing the survival of entire supply chains. In this article the author intends to investigate and document the use and meaning of Risk and Uncertainty within journals publishing material on Supply Chain Management and Logistics. Subsequently suggestions for further research are proposed – the integration of Risk Management into the discipline of Supply Chain Design. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/6296 Files in this item: 1

Lean Management in the Construction IndustryBrinch Jensen, Kenneth (Frederiksberg, 2010)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Ledelsesteknologier såsom Balanced Scorecard, Six Sigma og Activity Based Costing må fremtræde som konkrete, stabile, funktionelle og homogene løsninger, hvis de skal kunne fange både interesse og finansiering i forretningsverdenen. Studier af disse ledelsesteknologiers møde med organisationspraksis viser imidlertid, at disse teknologier er præget af stor ustabilitet og heterogenitet på tværs af implementeringer. Benders & Van Veen (2001) argumenterer for at ledelsesidéer besidder en kvalitet, der kan kaldes for 'fortolkningsmæssig levedygtighed'. Med dette skal forstås, at ledelsesidéerne har en evne til at tilpasse sig lokale forhold og interesser. Argumentet er endvidere, at denne kvalitet er mere afgørende for idéens overlevelse end idéens indhold..... URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8163 Files in this item: 1

En case-samlingHelbo, Martin; Jakobsen, Jesper; Gammelgaard, Britta (København, 2004)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Dette working paper er en samling af case beskrivelser angående indkøbspraksisser i Danmark. Case-dataene er indsamlede i efteråret 2003 og foråret 2004. Alle beskrivelser er validerede af de deltagende virksomheder. I den oprindelige undersøgelse var 10 virksomheder repræsenterede, men én af case-virksomhederne valgte desværre at trække sig ud af undersøgelsen på grund af meget store ændringer i virksomhedens grundlag. Dette ændrer dog ikke det samlede billede af, at indkøbspraksisserne i virksomhederne er i opbrud. Indkøbet bliver i stadig stigende grad opfattet som en vigtig brik til strømlining af forsyningskæden "upstream" mod råvareleverandørerne. En egentlig case-analyse vil kunne findes i kommende publikationer af de tre forfattere. Case beskrivelserne er en vigtig del af datagrundlaget i projektet "Indkøbspraksisser i et SCMperspektiv", der er finansieret af Center for Underleverandører i Herning. Dataene er hovedsagelig tilvejebragt via interviews med indkøbsansvarlige i de pågældende case-virksomheder. I den forbindelse vil vi gerne rette en stor tak til de personer og virksomheder, der velvilligt har stillet sig til rådighed med indsigt i de processer, der strukturerer dagens indkøb. Når vi har valgt at udgive beskrivelserne i et working paper og ikke blot lade dem samle støv i en skuffe som datagrundlag for videnskabelige publikationer, er det fordi, vi håber, at beskrivelserne kan inspirere andre end os selv, eksempelvis virksomheder og nuværende og kommende studerende med interesse i indkøbspraksisser.

An interpretation of the bicycle industryMikkola, Juliana Hsuan (København, 2002)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper aims at describing network dynamics through the lenses of modularity. Different types of networks exist as ways of coping with the dynamics of industry demands that are based on modular product architectures. In order to distinguish between different types of mechanisms in which networks (operating with modular product architectures may) evolve, two types of networks are introduced: 'marketdriven product architecture network' (i.e., when the industrial network is driven by product architecture that is controlled by the market) and 'firm-driven product architecture network' (when the industrial network is driven by product architecture that is controlled by the firm). The history of the technological development of bicycle, since 1890s to 1990s, illustrates how the bicycle industry survived two cycles of disaggregation-concentration.

Lessons learned from testing a prototype combining talent development and leadership innovation in a Scandinavian hospital settingIngerslev, Karen; Bjørn, Kasper; Johansen, Jørgen (, 2012)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper addresses the potential clash between the "non-failure" culture of the hospital and the "fail-fast-forward" approach of innovation by sharing and analysing narratives from a field study of innovation processes. The case is a large university hospital in Scandinavia and the health care sector in general is outlined as context of the challenges addressed by the innovation processes. The narratives fall into three overlapping categories; the product, the process and the culture of innovation. Regarding the product of innovation, we outline the lessons learned about tensions created by ambitions of radical innovation in a public sector context, challenged by the idea of small-scale experiments and the participant's feelings of inferiority. As for the process of innovation: we share the lessons learned about how linear and non-linear thinking affects the process of innovation. Addressing the culture of innovation, we discuss the lessons learned from working with a prototype testing approach in a system characterized by an evidence-based non-failure culture. Finally we summarize the lessons learned and share concluding perspectives. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8647 Files in this item: 1
Ledelsernes indflydelse på introduktion og vedligeholdelse af kvalitetsstrategier i det danske sundhedsvæsenFrey Larsen, Anette (Frederiksberg, 2010)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The focus of this thesis is "Quality Leadership in Danish Hospitals" and the conditions for good quality development on the operational level. Within this framework it is the objective of the thesis in three selected hospitals, geographically spread over the country, to investigate the view of the concept "quality" among department leaders from five referral centers and its impact on the department's quality work. The overall quality concept in the three hospitals is based on two different leadership technologies: Total Quality Management and Accreditation. Two of the hospitals have applied the TQM model as leadership technology but use the method in different ways. The third hospital applies Accreditation. Accordingly the three hospitals have organized in separate ways..... URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8064 Files in this item: 1

Exploring some benefits of constraints on creativity and aesthetic value creationFrandsen, Thomas; Friis, Ivar; Hansen, Allan (Frederiksberg, 2011)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper explores the role of budgeting in the Danish film industry and seeks to illustrate the positive effects a line-budget might have on the creativity and innovativeness in film production. In our analysis we provide illustrative examples of the enabling and facilitating role of budget constraints on film production from the Danish film industry in general as well as from a case study of the process of making the Danish film "The Island of Lost Souls" in particular. We draw on Elster (2000)'s constraint theory and suggest that the constraints imposed on agents by line-item budgeting under some circumstances lead to situations where 'less is more' as line-item budgeting might be used to focus creative behavior as well as pre-commit the agent against passion and time inconsistency.

Interactions and Convergence in Product Development NetworksBerhausen, Nico Peter (Frederiksberg, 2012)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Many studies have focused on the topic of product innovation. As a key element of how industrial organisations work, of how competition is shaped and how economic growth is realised, innovation provides an interesting research field, which will never be fully explored. Industrial organisations explore these grounds through strategic processes in which objectives should guide product development processes. Ideas, alternatives or decisions form these processes in which heterogeneous actors need to be aligned and coordinated towards the final product innovation. Heterogeneity is a key aspect here; different, new technologies, conflicting objectives, different opinions and different management practices for example, are part of this process. Although these elements have been studied extensively in extant research, I identify several gaps in the existing literature, which I in turn strive to fill with this thesis. First, a perspective of the interactions in innovation processes is needed with a focus on control mechanisms and the mobilisation of strategic objectives. Secondly, focusing on control, the way calculative boundaries are created and explored and how these may be overcome needs more development and empirical insights. Thirdly, the interaction of control mechanisms and the coordination of product development networks through these interactions lack empirical insights and build an interesting research ground. I do not provide a holistic framework or a contingent perspective of how organisations should manage innovation. Rather I discuss the many ways in which product development networks become convergent through the interaction of control mechanisms, which may act as a vehicle or translator of strategic objectives...

Using the force of partner attractionHald, Kim Sundtoft (København, 2005)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Company performance is increasingly affected by a range of external factors embedded in a complex network of action controlled by other companies' in its environment. A well managed company, it's argued, is one that is aware of these external factors, and one who in response seeks to implement tactics maximizing own influence and control over them. Information gathering and model building are tactics normally used in this effort. However, in this article we discuss a third tactic, the tactic of attraction in dyadic relationships. Founded on the theory of social exchange and based on literature reviews on long-term-orientation in relationships and relationship value we develop a conceptual model highlighting the components of attraction in business to business relationships. First we demonstrate how the force of attraction can be understood as partners expected relationship value and how expected relationship value in turn is strengthened or weakened by partner- comfortability and dependability. Then we show how partners perceived attraction towards an industrial company can be managed using a combination of structural- and behavioral adjustments.

Frandsen, Thomas (Frederiksberg, 2012)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The world is increasingly turbulent with shorter and shorter technological life cycles and more and more frequent changes in customer demand. This situation implies that flexibility and agility are crucial for producers of products and services. Much effort has been directed toward understanding innovation and the ways in which management can increase the value of innovation efforts. As a consequence, suggestions emphasizing different aspects of innovation and creativity have been put forward. However, the value of architectural knowledge for innovation is increasingly recognized as crucial with modular architectures proposed as one way of increasing the rate of innovation by introducing flexibility and agility without sacrificing efficiency. Modularity is a way to design a system with the intent of reducing its complexity by decomposing the system and reducing interdependencies between the subsystems of the system through standardized interfaces. Systems designed in this way allow for greater flexibility through recombination; however, they retain efficiency by means of standardization and scale economies from the reuse of components. For this reason modular architectures present an interesting solution to the dilemma of whether to invest in innovation or in efficiency. The topic has received much attention in the face of demands from customers for increasingly heterogeneous products and services. However, an important aspect to keep in mind is that, while decomposition is a powerful way of reducing complexity, most real systems remain only nearly decomposable (Simon, 1962) or loosely coupled rather than uncoupled (Orton & Weick, 1990)....

Abstract: Med dette skrift har vi ønsket at tage nogle temaer fra det Øresundsregionale projekt "Kreativ Metapol" op til behandling. Det er efter vores mening vigtige temaer, som dog først og fremmest afspejler, hvad videnpartnerne - CBS/CVL, Copenhagen Business School/ Center for Virksomhedsudvikling og Ledelse; MAH, Malmö Högskola og RUC, Roskilde Universitetscenter - i projektet har fundet interessant. Temaerne spænder fra spørgsmål om metapol-ideen over hvad der karakteriserer gode steder til deltagerkultur og eksperimenterende laboratorier. Når vi ovenfor skriver "tage temaer op til behandling", skal det ikke forstås som at vi mener at temaerne efter en sådan "behandling" er belyst i dybden, men snarere at vi ønsker at reflektere over nogle tematikker og der igennem invitere til videre fordybelse hos ikke mindst de mange praktikere, som projektet har været og er i dialog med og som er de egentlige bærere af de i projektet formulerede ambitioner om netværksbygning, videnudveksling og kreativitet på tværs af den dansk - svenske grænse gennem Øresund.

En analyse af gevinster og omkostninger ved miljømærkningRahbek Pedersen, Esben; Neergaard, Peter; Andersen, Mette; Bech, Line; Olsson, Marie-Louise (København, 2004)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The overall objective of this project is to analyse how companies perceive the costs and benefits from environmental labelling. The project only covers two labels: - the Nordic 'Swan' and the European 'Flower'. The majority of the companies have to high or some extent achieved their objectives regarding the labels. Moreover, most companies believe that environmental labelling improves image. One third of the companies state that the benefits from labelling exceed the costs they have encountered. However, more than half of the companies do not feel that they have gained important advantages from environmental labelling, e.g. from additional sales and earnings. With regards to the costs, environmental labelling does not necessitate high investments in new technology, recruitments, education etc. In other words, the cost barriers are in general small and most companies are able to defray the costs of environmental labelling. In conclusion, most companies have at least to some extent achieved their goals, whereas the economic impacts from environmental labelling have so far been limited. This does not necessarily imply that environmental labelling is without importance. On the contrary, environmental labels hold a number of potentials that make them attractive to companies. However, the prospects of environmental labelling depend on the values, attitudes and behaviour of all relevant stakeholders. Based on the results from the project, we have listed a number of recommendations for the companies, the customers and the administrators, which might stimulate the future development of environmentally labelled goods and services: * Companies. Even though companies in general do not experience substantial advantages from environmental labelling, the labels might have a number of indirect effects, which might increase the companies' competitiveness in the long run. For instance, environmental labelling might improve the companies' image and serve as a door opener for Side 5 Miljømærker og effekter new markets. Furthermore, the costs of environmental labelling are very limited. However, companies also have to realise that environmental labelling is not a panacea, which automatically generates a number of positive impacts. * Customers. It is often concluded that customers care about the environment and are willing to pay a price premium for environmentalfriendly goods and services. However, this is not always the case. The results indicate that the customers' actual purchasing behaviour is not necessarily in accordance with 'green' purchasing policies. For instance, a number of companies have experienced that the public procurement practises are inconsistent with formal policies. Realising that the public sector is the driver of environmental labelling much has to be done in order to improve the public procurement: - e.g. through education, campaigns and political action. * Administrators. In general, companies are not pleased with the fee structure of the labelling schemes. They think it would be fairer to impose the fees on the companies who do not produce eco-labelled products. Moreover, when eco-labels in general do not increase profit of products and services, the fees inevitable become an impediment to the future growth of environmental labelling. In general, there is a need to align the fee structure as well as the administrative procedures to the actual costs and advantages of environmental labelling.

Toward a General TheoryMikkola, Juliana Hsuan (København, 2003)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The focus of this paper is to integrate various perspectives on product architecture modularity into a general framework, and also to propose a way to measure the degree of modularization embedded in product architectures. Various trade-offs between modular and integral product architectures and how components and interfaces influence the degree of modularization are considered. In order to gain a better understanding of product architecture modularity as a strategy, a theoretical framework and propositions are drawn from various academic literature sources. Based on the literature review, the following key elements of product architecture are identified: components (standard and new-to-the-firm), interfaces (standardization and specification), degree of coupling, and substitutability. A mathematical function, termed modularization function, is introduced to measure the degree of modularization embedded in product architectures, by taking the key elements as the main variables. Various managerial and theoretical implications of the modularization function are drawn. For instance, the function can be used as a framework to aid to examine various leveraging forces behind new product development, manufacturing, and supply chain management policies of a firm. The modularization function also allows us to study the implications of modularization from different theoretical perspectives, such as resource-based view of the firm and transaction cost economics. Finally, the application of the modularization function and its limitations are discussed. Key words: modularity, product architecture URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/6287 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: For at styrke kompetenceniveauet i de maritime erhverv i Danmark er 10 partnere, bestående af relevante uddannelsesinstitutioner og maritime interesseorganisationer, gået sammen om projektet 'Danmarks Maritime Klynge' (DKMK). Med et særligt fokus på kompetenceudvikling inden for den maritime sektor udvikles og oprettes der i projektet flere maritime uddannelsesforløb i form af fag og kurser på bachelor- og kandidatniveau, der arbejdes på at skabe nemmere afkørsler til kandidatuddannelser for professionsbachelorer, og der udarbejdes relevante maritime efteruddannelsestilbud. Som en indledende del af projektet har projektets partnere via en række analyseaktiviteter set nærmere på, hvilke udfordringer, muligheder og behov de maritime erhverv i Danmark står over for i relation til uddannelse, kompetence og arbejdskraft. Ligeledes er der i inspirationsøjemed blevet set på, hvordan andre førende maritime nationer har valgt at støtte op om udviklingen af deres maritime klynger. Analyserne er foretaget på et overordnet niveau og mere uddannelsesspecifikke analyser vil blive foretaget af de enkelte partnere i den resterende projektperiode.

Or how the natural environment may qualify as a stakeholder in the firm's business environmentJustesen, Lise; Mouritsen, Jan; Tryggestad, Kjell (Frederiksberg, 2011)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: In its general form, stakeholder theory posits an extension of the ecology. It claims that there are other stakes and interests than those posited by shareholder value theory (Freeman et al. 2004; Jensen and Sandström 2011), and some stakeholder theory proponents argue that the natural environment is also to be considered as a stakeholder (Driscoll and Starik 2004; Norton 2007). It is a positive claim – there are more stakes and interests – and a moral one – we should look towards more interests in order to complete the analysis. With this framing, stakeholder theory seeks to identify stakes and interests which may be difficult but in principle achievable; it also seeks to make analysis of organized activity such as (global) business into a concern with the relative power of stakes and interests. These concerns are highly relevant but they face the barrier that if stakes and interests are positively there, the analysis becomes static and will pay less attention to both the formation and to power-effects of stakes and interest.

Abstract: Purpose: We have examined which dimensions are used by the largest Danish manufacturing companies to measure SCPM at operational, tactical and strategic level, how can these dimensions be classified, and how do these empirical results have implications for practice and selected SCPM-theories. Design/methodology/approach: A deductive structure based on a theoretical framework was used to design an empirical investigation of 54 Danish manufacturing companies, which all have revenue of more than DKK 500 million. Furthermore, qualitative investigation was done by analyzing four casecompanies in order to get a more in-depth picture of how SCPM is used in practice. Findings: The four most used SCPM metrics have downstream focus. Companies that use SCPM have a more deliberated split between metrics with focus on operational, tactical and strategic level. While the quantitative data indicates that non-financial measurements are most frequently used, the qualitative data implies that the companies use financial measures as basis for performance measurement and that results from non-financial measures have second priority. Research limitations/implications (if applicable): The model is limited to large Danish industrial companies and we propose to widen the model to upstream and downstream supply chain partners. Practical implications (if applicable): The paper shows the most important and most frequently used supply chain relevant key performance indicators as well as a process model of how to implement supply chain performance measurement in a company. Original/value: This paper closes the gap between theory and practice within the area of performance measurement and management within the context of supply chain management. The proposed SCPM model has been theoretically developed and empirically validated. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8331 Files in this item: 1

GREENVILLE, Pa., March 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Werner Co. is the official sponsor of the Werner Ladder Bracket Challenge with ESPN Radio's Mike & Mike In The Morning. Every year, co-hosts Mike Greenberg and Mike Golic, compete to see who can create the most accurate bracket for the NCAA® Tournament. The challenge between Mike and Mike provides entertaining debate for show listeners and sports fans.
Once the tournament ends, whichever Mike loses will unfortunately have to take part in the annual stunt that is slightly embarrassing, and possibly painful, but all in good fun. Last year Mike Greenberg had to perform a choreographed dance routine with Anna Trebunskaya from ABC's Dancing With The Stars. This year, the Bracket Challenge loser will have to compete in a grueling and gruesome obstacle course at ESPN's Wide World of Sports complex in Orlando, FL on May 3.
NCAA® Basketball fans can also compete against Mike and Mike and create their own "Sheets of Integrity" at http://promo.espn.go.com/espnradio/werner/. Participants can enter the Bracket Challenge through Thursday March 21 before the NCAA® second rounds begin. One lucky winner will be randomly selected to receive a 3-day, 2-night trip to New York City and to visit the ESPN Radio Studios in Bristol, CT. Also included is a meet and greet opportunity with Mike & Mike and other ESPN Radio personalities.
"We're excited to partner again with Werner Ladders for the Werner Bracket Challenge!" said Mike Golic, co-host of ESPN Radio's Mike and Mike in the Morning. "One of us is going to come out of this wet, cold and dirty and I'm confident it will be Greeny," he said of co-host Mike Greenberg.
Werner is also sponsoring the "Climb to the Top" feature, which provides a platform for
Mike & Mike to debate which teams are going to make it to the NCAA® Final Four®. "The Climb to the Top" ends in an emotional crescendo with the winning team climbing a custom 75th commemorative Werner ladder to cut down the nets at the conclusion of the NCAA® Basketball Championship on April 8 in Atlanta, GA.
"We're very excited once again to be involved in Mike & Mikes' coverage of these great college athletes' that push themselves to rise above in their sport and academic lives," said Chris Filardi, Vice President of Marketing at Werner Co.

In honor of the 75th celebration of the NCAA® Final Four® and to commemorate this special occasion, Werner has created a custom 75th championship ladder that will be used exclusively during the net-cutting ceremonies after the Men's Division I Championship game. This ladder celebrates all of the schools that have won the tournament dating back to the University of Oregon in 1939.

330 Make Your Own for olds in the ARTS & CRAFTS Category
When it comes to picking Make Your Own among all the ARTS & CRAFTS for kids of all ages, we have a simple, reliable approach. First, we send in our SEAL Team of Child-Experts and they go to work. They look at, play with, and select only the top Make Your Own. They base their selection on play value, durability, uniqueness, design and safety. Then the Make Your Own under review must be equal to or better than any of the other Make Your Own on the site. If they are, they immediately go on the site. If they are not, we dump them. And every year, we get rid of the bottom performers and add, new top Make Your Own to our selection of ARTS & CRAFTS.

Hario Skerton grinder is handy for manual home and travel grinding, it can also be slightly more cumbersome for an extended road trip where only a small amount of grinding will be done (for a more detailed comparison of the two grinders, check out this blog post: Hario Skerton vs. Mini Mill). For those trips (or homes) where a minimal amount of grinding is needed, the Hario Mini Mill Slim is the perfect grinding solution. The Mini Mill employs adjustable conical ceramic burrs for grinding any of the wide range of grinds employed in today's coffee market. It can effortlessly handle 24 grams of anything from fine espresso to a coarse French Press setting. Because of its lightweight (0.5 lbs) and sleek plastic body, the Mini Mill easily fits into small carrying bags and suitcases without adding a lot of extra weight. This, in conjunction with the Aerobie AeroPress coffee maker, has the propensity to make excellent coffee anywhere hot water and fresh beans are available.
The Hario Mini Mill is a traveling coffee enthusiast's dream come true.... and with its ability to grind to the fine quality needed for espresso, it can be paired with a hand-held travel espresso maker such as the mypressi TWIST (and an excellent choice of beans) to achieve a quality rivaling the product found in many high-end espresso machines. Whether the need is grinding beans for a french press, Aeropress, or mypressi, the Mini Mill Slim is the perfect travel solution.
One of the top coffee grinder manufacturers has just released one of the most versatile grinders to date. With the capability of grinding from French press to espresso, the Mahlkonig Pro M provides the grinding range that would normally require two separate grinders. The grinding range combined with features like the "hands free" operation and break functionality help make this grinder ideal for both low-medium volume commercial settings and home use.
Hario's stainless steel water kettle, the V60 Buono, has been spotted popping up in coffee houses and the kitchens of baristas for some time now. A detailed search on the web will reveal, for the moment at least, that the Buono seems to be widely accepted as the most useful pouring kettle available. What makes this kettle so popular amongst pour-over enthusiasts? Several reasons stand out.
First, the thin pouring spout enables greater pouring precision as well as a slower, more consistent and controlled rate of pour, both of which are very helpful in achieving a precise, prolonged extraction.
Second, the stainless steel construction and large 1 liter capacity contribute toward keeping up the brew temperature for the duration of the entire brew cycle.
Third, the ergonomics involved in the design of the kettle help to make using it much easier. This may not seem like much, but if you're brewing large batches of coffee and pouring for three or more minutes per batch, doing several batches of coffee will quickly become a chore if your kettle doesn't cooperate with you.
Combine all of these facets with the fact that the Buono is manufactured by Hario, a very popular name in the coffee-brewing community, and the kettle's popularity is easily understood. For best results, combine the Buono with a V60 Dripper or Chemex to get a truly exceptional cup of coffee.

1)a japanese economy car
2)a car that teenager's rich parents buy them as a cheap relaiable transportation, but then they fuck it all up by putting huge fart cans and spoilers on then trying to drive fast and race everyone and thinking they are really cool but everyone is really just laughing at them because they are so goddamn stupid. I drive a CIVIC, its so fast, last night I raced some kid on his tricycle and it was close but I beat him because my spoiler added an extra 20hp so that was the reason I won.
civic images | |||

A very reliable cheap car. Not meant to be a race car at all. Gets you from point A to B and saves gas. With gas being close to $3.00 gallon, I'm glad I drive a civic and, I don't give a damn what people say!
3. | civic | ||
JESUS-FUCKING-CHRIST! It's just a car. Plain and simple. It's a car made by Honda Motors, Co, designed to be an inexpensive ECONOMY car. The DX, Value Package, and LX models have a 112 horsepower engine, the EX model has a 127 hp engine (2004 sedan models), and the Si model has a 160 hp engine (2004 model). It's not made for racing, it's made to be fuel-efficient, which it is. Practically every website that has the word "Civic" in it, be it here, a forum, or anywhere else, has this damn argument about whether Civics are good racing cars or not. NOBODY CARES! Most of you probably don't own a car anyway! The first car I owned a 1989 Honda Civic Hatchback in about 2002-ish. I didn't race it once, but whenever I mentioned I owned a Civic, people didn't care what year it was - they automatically thought I raced and that I was a ricer. Yeah, like I'd race in a car that had a horsepower range of 68-72. I learned to drive a stick shift in that car, that's about it.

A 4 cylinder model manufactured by honda and available as a coupe, sedan, or hatchback depending on year and trim. High potential for modification, and even higher potential for retarded shitfucks to totally turn it into a rolling laughing stock. When modified by a character of taste, it can be quite a nice looking (and even fast) car.
There seem to be 3 major themes when it comes to modifiying a civic: JDM, Sleeper, and Rice. JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) characteristics include importing and installing parts from authentic JDM civics (or other japanese honda models) such as side markers, jap instrument clusters, steering wheels, and jap-spec racing wheels (spoon, mugen, 5Zigen, etc. or knockoffs (rota). Sleeper: A car that remains mostly stock on the outside but has extensive modification to the motor such as a motor swap and a turbo or supercharger. Mild aesthetic and/or performance upgrades are generally suspension modifications (springs, shocks, adj. coilovers, sway bars, bushings, etc) brake upgrades (larger rotors, rear disks, etc), and upgraded, though still factory, alloys (Si, Integra GSR, etc). Rice: All the rest of the fucking shit you see driving around. "Powered by honda" stickers, ugly altezza taillights, neon glow, heinous body kits (usually unpainted or primered and rarely color matched), stickers so thieves know what to steal, cheap universal mufflers welded to the stock exhaust pipe, cut springs (as opposed to aftermarket springs - you ca... |

An excuse for retarded fuckheads to come on UrbanDictionary.com and bitch and whine and fling shit at eachother back and forth, as if UrbanDictionary.com was a messageboard. I destroyed your civic with a wrecking ball for airing your stupid "gay-fest" on Urbandictionary.com like a 14 year old attention whoring little bitch.

The Civic is a car that was designed to be an entry level coupe/hatchback/sedan from Honda.... thats about it. It is very economical and an ease to drive. With gas arriving at record rates, I am sure glad to own one. Many definitions on this site state that a Civic is piece of shit..well compared to some other cars...its not so bad. Now on to the performance part. Civics arent designed to be raced or beat the cars that deserve to be fast. A Civic is simply a "me too" car. I drive a Civic .. but it is allmsot like no other... it will never see a performance part... ever. Honda designed this car as a beater around town and to take on the highway to acheive over 40 mpg... and thats really great!!!... when people started racing them ... those are the fucking idoits that cant afford the really nice cars... Mustangs.. Supras.. 300 ZX's ..etc..etc. This is a car that the parents buy for there teenagers that is cheap and reliable if taken care of ... so the Defintion of a Honda Civic?.... a beater to get you from point A to point B and not in a badass manner that many attempt it to be... thats all..... You have a Civic?... omg ... me too !!!

Any of various imported cars which feature any of several defining characteristics:
- Enlarged exhaust tip to 'enhance the sound', usually chrome while the rest is not. - Numerous stickers which, if applied correctly, add enough horsepower to make it beat "any V8". - So-called "Body-kits" which, from what I gather, enhance the cars ability to be useless. - V-Tec logos; can also be found on honda MiniVans. - Incredibly unintelligent, obnoxious, and belligerent drivers. - Senselessly large amounts of pointlessly oversized speakers and amplifiers. - Shiny things that don't do anything. - Rims of a size never, ever intended by the manufacturer to be attached to the car. - "Home" lowering modifications which shorten tread-life of otherwise good tires while adding 0 performance enhancements. - Pointless hoods made of some composte material with a colouration bearing absolutely no resemblance to the rest of the car. - Novelty "wings" and "hood scoops" - often mistaken for NASA project parts or commercial airliner wings affixed to the back, regardless of the front-wheel-drive. If for some reason, the person has the intelligence enough to open the hood and figure out how to affix any of various aftermarket modifications, the car might also feature: - Numerous additional chrome pieces ('shiny things') which are illegal in California and don't really do anything. - Several 'FAILED EMISSIONS' stamps on its title - $1000-$12,000 in aftermarket parts which make the ... |

I'll need one of those too...
Crucial moment of the match:
Around the 85th minute, Greece is ahead one-nil and suddenly a guy with a weird hat and a flag enters the field. He's got a Barcelona flag that he tosses to traitor Figo (who left Barca for Real a few years earlier) and continues his run into the net of Nikopolidis. He didn't leave the field until at least two minutes had passed and Portugal's players had lost any concentration they had to score and get it even.
Thank you tons, mr.

Hmmm, wonder who that was?
I thought Portugal played well against Holland, tactically better than England and defeated a gritty defensive Spain (and don't forget the importance of the Spanish game')
Would you say that Portugal were any less deserving than England, Sweden, France, Denmark or Holland to go through.
(BTW - I've returned your message.)

Oh come on! The Sardines are still mediocre at best. They have crawled through on the back of opponents laclustre efforts and still have not pulled a good game together, heck, the only time a team stepped up a gear against them was the first Greek outing, and look what happened there!
Greece should win the final hands down. They play better as a combined team and their fitness is superior. The only way I can see the Sardines winning is if the ref sides with them again
Overall, most teams have underperformed in this compo, but the Greeks stayed steady and to their game play. I hope they win as they deserve it more than the Sardines.

Well, if I knew that it was going to be a Portugal/Greece final I wouldn't have bothered watching this tournament
. Seriously though, I think both teams deserve to be there(possible exception of Czech). Portugal have got better throughout the tournament, Ronaldo and Maniche have been great to watch, and Figo looked more his old self the other night. With home advantage you expect Portugal to lift the cup on Sunday. However Greece have really pulled together as a team, Otto Rehblahblah, has got the team working really hard as a unit, and with no pressure on them they could suprise us all. (It looked a bit of a jammy goal last night,though, I thought it came off his shoulder, but hey they all count). I do hope Greece win to tell you the truth, along with the Centenary of the Olympics,it will be a great summer for them. Quite fitting really. Just wish I'd put some money on them.

What's going on? Being out of this championship is the new staying in.
I think the Czechs deserve to win this, to be honest, as most of the displays in these Quarter Finals have been pretty much lacklustre. Anyway that's who I'm backing, which means that Greece will be in the final.
I never knew that the Dutch had a worse record than us in penalty shoot outs.

Yes they do report them, and yes, Turks prolly top anyone in that regard. But turks weren't around, and I am prolly carrying over my beef with Brit tourists. (What can I say, we only seem to attract the sort that considers an arrest for disorderly behaviour, indecent exposure or bar brawl a perfect conclusion to a night out.

Well, today I'm only too glad to admit I'm wrong. About that, and about our team of course
. I can get

Hmm.. I dunno whether I'd like danes or czechs for the next round. The latter are both more fearsome and more likeable. To me anyhow.

As for England, well, nobody's sorry to see drunk hooligans go
That is narrow minded and so very biased. Do you really think England is the only country with drunken hooligans? If you do then you need to get out into the real world.
Italian hooligans planning trouble at Euro 2004
German and Dutch hooligans
Were the above reported as widely in the media as the English incidents? Of course not. England has this hooliganism attached to them, whether they actually do it or not, and it will be with them forever because of people like you who believe the twisted press.
Heck, Turkey are probably the worse football supporters, but no, England gets worse press and punishment.
Sorry Termital but statements like that really really annoy me.

The England/Sardine game really annoyed me.
Point 1:
Why did the whole team give up when Rooney went off? Yes, he is a great player but there was still depth in the team to push forward and make chances.
Point 2:
What's with the bloody long ball? Time and time again England play the 'Hoof up the middle' approach to smaller strikers. It don't work and never will, unless of course Rooney is playing.
Point 3:
Having both Chuckle brothers on the pitch at the same time is disasterous. Why take Joe Cole, a chap who can break defenses apart, and not play him? Instead Sven puts Chuckle II on and the game goes backwards.
Point 4:
It don't matter if the penalty spot is made of cork and the surrounding mud is like quicksand, taking a penalty is all in favour of the kicker. It should be a basic pre-school skill getting the ball on target with a mighty hoof, not trying to be a fanny and placing it. Head down, huge kick, directed to goal, in the back of the net. Simple.
Point 5:
Airbound defense, England are good, but with the crosses they don't man mark well, hence the first Sardine goal. England did not seem to communicate well this time and it proved decisive.
Point 6:
Cheat, just like opponents. England need to cheat more, especially outside and inside the box, other teams get the call from doing it so why shouldn't England. The truth gets you nowhere in this game.
Come on Holland (And Denmark)

Sports pundits here think Rooney shows great promise.
As for England, well, nobody's sorry to see drunk hooligans go. For the actual team, that it serves them right for making regular time so sucky, and that the english team final standing was to be expected given team's history.
Myself, I cheered for Portugal
Now, I'll just keep my fingers crossed that tomorrow's game is this long as well
. Rest assured that you'll see no *-*-3 stupidity from this team (what was Rehhagel thinking before the russia game?), unless they're already losing badly. We have absolutely no way to deal with the french team on a man-to-man basis, so we'll just have to keep tight control of space on our side of the field and hope to get a lucky counterattack once they're worn down. Odds of course are that it'll be a fun end of the road. And by that I mean fun for us - expect to see the stretcher people a lot

With a decent coach and perhaps a few more than 1 1/2 attackers...
The extra time was great to watch...
(Portugal will also need a better coach if they want to go to the final...)

Updated: Candidates Emerge in 98th Assembly District Race
A half dozen people are showing interest in the special election that still has to be called by Gov. Scott Walker.
Editor's Note: This article was updated at 12:30 p.m. Wednesday with information about Jeanne Tarantino declaring her candidacy.
State Rep. Paul Farrow has not yet officially won the 33rd Senate District seat, although he is the only candidate on the Dec. 4 special election ballot, but nearly a half dozen people have expressed an interest in replacing him.
Jeanne Tarantino, a Waukesha Republican, became the latest candidate for the job, throwing her hat into the ring early this week while Steve Edlund, who was once considering a run, has announced he will not seek the office.
Republican Todd Greenwald, a Pewaukee resident, announced that he also running for the 98th District seat that includes Sussex, Pewaukee and portions of Waukesha (see map).
Adam Neylon, a local business owner and aide to State Rep. Bill Kramer, has also declare candidacy as a Republican in the 98th Assembly District.
Also running as a Republican is Matt Morzy. Eric Prudent, who lost earlier this month against Farrow for the 98th District seat, will be running as a Democrat. Contemplating runs on as a Republican are Jeanne Tarantino, Waukesha School Board member Steve Edlund and Pewaukee Police Chief Ed Baumann.
Farrow is moving to the State Senate – pending any write-in candidates in the special election Dec. 4 for the uncontested 33rd Senate District race – and his Assembly district seat will be vacant. Farrow won re-election to the 98th District seat on the same day he won the Senate primary.
The 33rd Senate District seat was vacated earlier this year by former Sen. Rich Zipperer. Zipperer was appointed as the deputy chief of staff and senior counsel for Gov. Scott Walker in July.
Walker has not yet called for a special election to fill the 98th Assembly District seat and will likely wait until Farrow wins the Dec. 4 election.
Running for Sure
Describing herself as a "Mom on a mission to make Wisconsin the best place to raise a family and start a business," Tarantino served as Lt. Governor Rebecca Kleefisch's Chief of Staff for two years before helping the Walker administration's efforts to increase employment by closing the skills gap, she said in a state.
"I will take the values I learned working in my family's store and in building a business here in Waukesha to my work on your behalf in Madison," said Tarantino. "I know you can't spend more than you bring in and that you should always give your customers a great value."
Greenwald said in a statement that he looks forward to helping the conversavtive cause in Madison.
"Todd believes the conservative approach that has already been started in Madison by the existing Republican leadership is the correct way to lead Wisconsin forward, and as a representative he will work to grow that success," he said.
Greenwald is a project manager with experience in the architecture and construction fields. He is past president of the Lake Park Home Owners Association and volunteers as a soccer coach.
"I really believe in what the Governor and the Republican Party are doing for the state of Wisconsin, and I want to help," said Greenwald. "I think the people of the district believe it too, and they want a representative that wants to keep it moving in the right direction."
Neylon, who also worked for U.S. Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner, said in a news release he is looking to "lower taxes, improve schools, create jobs and make the government more efficient."
Neylon served as the Waukesha County field director for the Republican Party of Wisconsin during the 2010 election, according to his release. He has been a member of the Republican Party of Waukesha County for the past six years, and previously served on the executive board.
"I promise to always put taxpayers first, and stand for responsible budgets, and common sense government," Neylon said in the release. "These principles have guided me all my life, and I will continue to be guided by that conservative compass in the state Assembly. Together, we can make Wisconsin the best place in the world to live, work, and raise a family."
Morzy announced he was running two days after the Nov. 6 election. He told Patch then that he is motivated by what Walker and the other Republicans are doing in the state, which is why he decided to seek election.
"I want to make sure I can do what I can to contribute to that to make sure that we keep that process going and keep improving the state of Wisconsin," Morzy said.
Prudent lost to Farrow in the 98th District on Nov. 6, but he's approaching the new race as a different election with a different opponent.
"I already have established somewhat of a base and connections with people," Prudent said. "Moving forward, that is something I want to build off of."
Prudent said he grew up with political parents, which motivated his interest in politics. But what really pushed him to run for public office was seeing the public union workers rallying and protesting in Madison after Walker first proposed the bill that put strict limitations on collective bargaining for public workers.
"I was there, days and nights, with these people," Prudent said. "You can't help but be inspired by that – people standing up for these rights. … That is a big reason why I ran – to give them a voice."
Still Testing the Waters
Baumann has been a police officer for about 38 years, but he is retiring early next year from the Pewaukee Police Department. While he has had to deal with politics during his career, he said: "By no means am I a politician."
"I am a problem solver," Baumann said. "I want to be able to do that."
Baumann, who expects to finalize his decision to run in the next week or two after consulting with family, said he wants to help make the 98th Assembly District a better place. Friends and others have been encouraging him to run for the office.
"I'd get to do what I am doing for 30 years – helping people," Baumann said. "That will be my focus."

Prudent says he was motivated by the public union workers protesting in Madison. We all know about the backlash that created. Since Wisconsin has already saved over $2 Billion dollars due to ACT 10 working, Prudent has a long road to hoe. Neylon will be a great representative for the 98th.
And GOVERNOR SCOTT WALKER is going nowhere.

You "Republicans" are all the same! Whatever happened to Republicans like Dwight D. Eisenhower?? Adam Neylon is just another businessman that wants to cut taxes. How's that working out for you? He's just like Scott Walker...an empty suite. Vote Prudent!!! Let's turn Waukesha County blue in 2013!!!
2:16 am on Tuesday, November 20, 2012
How are "lower" taxes working out for us, Richard? Let's see....... Illinois has recently increased their income taxes by 67% and they STILL have lower income tax rates than Wisconsin.
Wisconsin has craptacular prospects for businesses. Our only hope is to have 20 more years of Scott Walker to eventually become a place that is anywhere near the top of the list.

9:33 am on Tuesday, November 20, 2012
We need someone who isn't in politics and has real world experience. We are tired of the double and triple dippers and the going along to get along types. And of course, its the same old song ... lower taxes, more jobs, better schools, etc... All these past "officials" have promised the same things year after year, and nothing changes or happens except higher taxes and more regulation. We need some real candidates instead of a bunch of retreads.

5:40 pm on Tuesday, November 20, 2012
We need more people who aren't career politicos. Adam Neylon is a solid person, I know I've met and talked with him many times whilst being involved with the GOP, but we need people who have experience in the private sector. I haven't met Matt Morzy yet, but the aspect that his prior job experience would say it relied on being able to gauge the economic flow and trends is something that is a gaping hole in a wide array of knowledge bases the party is solidly set in. I'd like to see people who know what helps growth actually happen and be sustained rather than crafting the best policies to get elected. It could, and might even likely be that Adam Neylon is the best person for doing so that are running at the moment, but I'd urge people to hear out Morzy as well as not quashing any other possible candidates from running by lauding support behind one candidate as soon as the race starts. It's not good to declare someone the best person for an office not even two weeks after it's race began.

7:27 pm on Tuesday, November 20, 2012
I think Jeanne would be a far better candidate than neylon. Hopefully she runs. Neylon should name some legislation that he worked on...
8:21 pm on Tuesday, November 20, 2012
I'm all for hearing this Morzy guy out, I know nothing about him. But Jeanne Tarantino!?!? HAHAHA! Are you kidding me? Did you even read her press release? "Tarantino said she is running 'to restore fiscal sanity to our state budget" Umm... Earth to Jeanne, Gov. Walker just BALANCED THE BUDGET and added money into the rainy day fund. Did you wake up one day and think you're still living in 2010? Come on... she's not a serious candidate.
Lady fw
6:21 pm on Monday, November 26, 2012
I am quite certain Jeanne is aware of the path Governor Walker has put us on, given she is the Chief of Staff for the Lt. Gov. She has also traveled the state attending Small business forums in addition to owning and growing her own small business. Not to mention the fact she is a working mother of three who has an outstanding reputation in the public and private sector. From what I heard Mr. Neylon is selling himself as a top policy advisor at the Capitol, while he is a staffer, I would leave it at that.
6:33 pm on Saturday, November 24, 2012
Jeanne is a candidate representative of the typical WI resident. Her political experience has given her valuable perspective of the needs in government for people who experience the effects of political decisions. Her experience in growing a local business, and the needs of small business owners make her an ideal influence in government. Her concern for families and the future for the next generation speaks volumes. She is a woman of integrity with the determination and drive to get things done! She will be a strong voice for people in WI.
8:35 pm on Saturday, November 24, 2012
I hope Jeanne Tarantino gets into the race because not only is she the most experienced candidate, but she would represent a demographic that clearly had a huge influence in this past election. We need strong female conservative voices now more than ever if we are going to persuade long term the female vote. Jeanne has real life experience in both the private sector and in different facets of National and State government. As a working mother of three, she understands what families are up against in a weak economy, and she will work not just tirelessly for her family but will also do the same for her constituents. This is a time for experienced leadership in Madison, and not a time for inexperienced staffers to get in the race. Jeanne's work ethic, character, and common sense approach to real life issues is what the 98th District needs to send to Madison. She is a really a great candidate!
11:08 am on Sunday, November 25, 2012
If I lived in this district I would encourage Jeanne Tarantino to run. She can win and I know has the work ethic to represent her constituents with dynamic representation. Jeanne also has impeccable ethics. Jeanne's experience and family values make her the ideal candidate for this seat. I encourage everyone in this district to volunteer for Jeanne and donate to her future candidacy that I pray she choses to pursue. Take the time to get to know Jeanne, you will then agree with me that she is a special Lady who is ideally suited to represent you at this time when we need a voice in Madison to fight for JOBS!!
Jan Young
8:31 pm on Sunday, November 25, 2012
I agree with the last post - if I lived in this district, Jeanne would get my vote. She has the leadership, the integrity, moral character and hard work ethic our state needs. Her conservative principles, and passion for helping the people of our state is what we need to keep Wisconsin moving in the right direction. She has the experience (having worked for our Lt. Gov., Rebecca Kleefisch) to hit the ground running. I have the utmost confidence in her ability to do what is best to bring jobs to our state, work to lower taxes, and represent all Wisconsin citizens to a brighter future.
Michelle Allen
10:00 pm on Sunday, November 25, 2012
Jeanne Tarantino knows Waukesha and has experience, integrity and heart. She is a people person, attentive listener and full of energy and action
10:18 pm on Sunday, November 25, 2012
Jeanne would definitely have my vote. I have known her for a long time and she has an inner strength and drive that is very admirable. I have no doubt she would work extremely hard to represent our best interests and keep our state moving in a positive direction.
7:32 pm on Monday, November 26, 2012
Jeanne would have my vote. Not only does her past/present government work experience make her an outstanding candidate for this position: her strong communication skills would be a positive voice for us all. I have never met anyone who works as hard as Jeanne. She works until the job is done. She is a compassionate, intelligent woman and this is demonstrated in all aspects of her life. She would be an asset to everyone she would represent!
10:12 pm on Monday, November 26, 2012
The only political difference between Waukesha and Sheboygan is that several of our great state's current leadership has deep roots embedded there in Waukesha instead of here in beautiful suburban Sheboygan. But they would be re-miss to overlook Jeanne Tarantino as an upcoming solid can-do candidate for the 98th District who's already been walking the walk while the others merely talk the talk of empty promises and last year's issues. Jeanne can think and act clearly while leading the way on current issues that effect the not only the local citizens but the state as well. What really separates her from the other candidates is her 'kitchen table common sense' of Conservative values and principles along with her wealth of experience. She is an asset to the people of Waukesha and a great credit to our state. I woud urge you to support and assist Jeanne Tarantino for State Assembly.
Jackie Goldbaum
4:54 pm on Wednesday, November 28, 2012
I am not sure I have the capacity to fully encapsulate all that a woman like Jeanne Tarantino could offer the state Assembly and the 98th districts constituents. I have know this woman a very long time and have encountered few people with the degree of integrity and compassion that Jeanne brings to the table. There is no pretense of "ego" in terms of this woman, and has only the best interest of the people of Waukesha guiding her.
Jeanne has heart, compassion, and a non-ending drive to do what is right for those around her! This would easily be expanded to the people of Waukesha as a whole. I support Jeanne in this race and would feel great honor in doing so.
Mark D Stevenson
5:55 pm on Thursday, November 29, 2012
It's plainly obvious that Jeanne Tarantino and/or her surrogates are aware of this web article and are trying to drum up support for her candidacy by drowning out other commentaries. Regardless, if she IS the best candidate, I know some people in the 98th I will encourage to support her, however, being a STAFFER of a solid/exemplary Lt. Governor makes no rational case for the STAFFER themselves being the best person for a legislative seat. The press releases' outdated platitudes speak volumes to me that as of now, she's not my top two preferred to see win this seat at the moment. When I see specific things shes done other than be a staffer and merely living within the district I'll take it to consideration. I am wary of people who run for office on the basis of government officials they worked for. As of now she's the #3 candidate in my book. As the ever so eloquent Charles Barkley once said, "I may be wrong, but I doubt it."
