Although the Hacking Team leak took place several months ago, the impact of this data breach—where exploit codes were made public and spurred a chain of attacks—can still be felt until today. We recently spotted malicious Android apps that appear to use an exploit found in the Hacking Team data dumps. The apps, found in certain websites, could allow remote attackers to gain root privilege when successfully exploited. Mobile devices running on Android version 4.4 (KitKat) and below, which account for nearly 57% of total Android devices, are susceptible to attacks that may abuse this flaw.Read More

Summer reading
The New Albany School District has decided to require all high school students to do summer homework.
The homework is in the form of a summer reading and writing assignment that will be due the second day of school in August and will count as a major grade in English.
The program, which will be in effect this summer, represents a major change for the district. In the past, only students in the gifted/advanced placement English class have had required reading assignments during the summer.
Kim Day, Gifted English teacher at New Albany High School, told the board of trustees that "reading during the summer months would benefit all students by improving reading comprehension and increasing retention of literary analysis skills learned during the school year."
She said that students regress in their reading comprehension skills over the summer and the new program will help boost state test scores and ACT scores.
Students will select a book that appeals to them from a reading list based on grade and skill level. Our only concern is that adequate books are available for families who cannot afford them.
Dr. Charles Garrett, district superintendent, said making the summer program a requirement for all high students is important because it is the weaker students who need the extra reading the most.
We know that making a summer assignment a requirement may not meet with the approval of all parents. But we support the administration's efforts to put more rigor into our educational curriculum.
In fact, we would like to see the district explore a summer reading requirement for all grades. Reading comprehension is just as important, perhaps even more so, in elementary school where the pattern is set for middle and high school.

Cubs Minor League Camp Roster Projections
Minor League Camp opened this week, as pitchers & catchers reported to Fitch Park after the Cubs moved up Center Streert to HoHoKam Park. Other minor league players will report on Tuesday.
Here are the projected Cubs Minor League Camp rosters (142 players), the DSL Cubs Reserve Lists (two teams combined - 66 players), plus some other stuff.
Players at Minor League Camp are often initially placed one level above where they are expected to play that season, and then they either get released or get demoted one or even two levels lower once the Cubs start to make cuts and send players to Minor League Camp (Fitch Park) from HoHoKam, with an accompanying downward cascade of players from Iowa to Tennessee, Tennessee to Daytona, etc.

Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
Angel Guzman's MRI revealed a career threatening ligament tear. He's likely done for good.
Re: Guzman
Wait Guzman hurt? Sounds like Ground Hogs Day. Cut ties and let's finally move on from this injury prone bust.
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
Callous much? You couldn't phrase that in a slightly more sympathetic way?
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
Angel Guzman has a significant ligament tear in front, bottom part of his right shoulder, a career-threating injury for the 28-year-old right-hander.
essentially this is a labrum tear plus a tear of the middle and inferior glenohumeral ligament. These often tear when the shoulder dislocates (or subluxes, partial dislocations). Probably similar to ARam's situation last year....but worse as that was not his throwing arm.
and sadness for Angel, couldn't get much tougher for him.
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Roster Projections
Which raises the question--who's faster on the basepaths, Carlos Silva or Daryle Ward?
Carlos Silva being rocked
this is fun...
Re: Carlos Silva
Welcome to the Carlos Silva Era....
Let's hope it very short lived and he doesn't make the team out of Arizona.
Also, allowing 2 SB in the first inning does not make be feel any better.
Go Cubs!!!
parachat is open
I'll be there for the first 2-3 innings
also, if you're logged into the site, you are now automatically logged into Parachat
Re: Parachat
hmm, not working in Google Chrome for me, odd.
it does in Firefox.
Teahan K's against Silva, I wonder how embarrassing that is?
Guzman loses his brother and then possibly his career. Damn.
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
I'm on Firefox on a Mac and chat doesn't work for me. I'll try Safari and see...
Interesting, Chat loads fine on Safari, but it listed an error message in the posted comment section:
Error U2579
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
bah, works for me on Firefox on Mac
so much for technology
I'll install the old version by Monday
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
I did some checking and the problem seems to be that the "new" chat client requires an old (and less secure) version of java.
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
Guzman's injury news is a kick in the grapes. Poor kid has lost a lot.
The injury was the first player news I read after migrating my league from SN to ESPN today. He was a valuable player in that Roto league that counts holds last year, so much so that I traded for him later on. He then gave up 6 earned in his first two IP on my roster and didn't seem warm when he entered those games. Indeed, he never looked like the guy I had been watching all season long after that as he issued 8 BB over his final 9 IP. I wonder if he was pitching through pain in injury denial, or if it was just a rough stretch and the injury came later.
Great diving catch
by Soriano
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
At least Silva isn't surprising us. lol.
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
Another Silva HR! Wait, he's pitching? Damn he sucks. Hopefully he's just rusty...? Naaah
For Neifi Saved Us in our fantasy league
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
Muskat on Guzman:
"He has a very unstable shoulder," Cubs general manager Jim Hendry said on Saturday. "There's no timeframe of anywhere soon that he'll be pitching. Obviously, it wasn't good news."
The part I don't like (because it sets up the medical staff to second guessing). I guess a good reporter would report on whether Guzman had an MRI when he was shut down last September and if he did, why didn't they report on it?:
This injury is related to the soreness he had at the end of last season near his right armpit, which prompted the Cubs to shut Guzman down on Sept. 22.
Anatomy of the shoulder, including inferior glenohumeral ligament (item-4):
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
Marmol seems to have more movement on his pitches. Could it be from the gravy stains that Silva left on the ball?
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
Oh snap!
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
awesome info Phil..
when did Rosa become a catcher and Rundle a pitcher? The things I miss. I can't believe Todd Blackford is still in this organization (acquired from the Braves for Hollandsworth)
Sight Seen
Lou in dugout reading the Cubs 2010 media guide
probably trying to figure out all the guys sitting in his dugout.
Soriano fail
easy single to LF, Soriano completely overruns it, butchers the play and it bounces past him, runner heads home and they probably had him, but Theriot throws a JJ and bounces the relay throw
woo spring training
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
Brenly gives get well wishes to Rebel Ridling. Had emergency appendectomy last week. que M*SH theme.
Hendry just said on TV, Angel Guzman will probably go visit Dr. James Andrews.
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
Cashner walks the first two, W. Castillo picks off the guy at 2b, Blanco rolls his ankle and leaves the game, Castro in
Castillo airmails next throw to 2b on a steal
Hendry said best case scenario is 2-3 months on Guzman but he'll see Andrews as Cubster said...
Colvin was headed home last year, but due to injuries was called up and apparently was tired from the long season and moved to Arizona and decided to get in better shape to survive a full season. Worked out in Mesa with Cubs strength coach (Buss) all offseason, Hendry said he looks like an everyday player now.
Overheard from Len
"Cubs aren't a team that overhypes prospects"....
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
Byrd can't throw out T. Flowers on a single, Cashner throwing hard, but straight and control is off...
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
wow...kinnard wears #78 for a reason.
back to back homers and a walk...carlos silva raises a turkey drumstick to you, dude.
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
carlos silva...we trade one guy who supposedly doesn't care, though he shows up every year in shape and ready to go for someone who supposedly cares, though he shows up yet another year out of shape and not ready for much.
at least silva is a guy you'd want to have a beer with...and the club "saved" 4-6m bucks which they blew more loot on top of that to sign bradley's replacement.
never wanted to see a billy martin type so badly in the clubhouse leadership...the pre-alcoholic-mess martin, that is.
now silva...that's a guy who got a contract and "checked out"...but at least he smiles while he sucks.
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
As AZ Phil said yesterday, Silva would be starting today, unless it "interfered with his lunch", which it obviously does.
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
Crunch -- Two points:
1. You keep comparing Bradley to Silva, but the comparison is irrelevant. The Cubs didn't trade Bradley to get Silva. They traded Bradley to get rid of Bradley. When it became obvious that no one else wanted Bradley, they agreed to trade bad contracts with Seattle. But make no mistake about it. Getting rid of Bradley was the goal. Who they got for him was not what the trade was all about.
2. I've heard others say something similar to what you said about Billy Martin. Something to the effect of, "If we had a manager like Billy Martin, we wouldn't have had the problems with Bradley we had last year." Martin was a tough-nosed manager who didn't take shit from anyone. If you think he would have coddled Bradley, I think you're wrong. He was much more likely to kill Bradley than coddle him.
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
i know it's irrelevant in this case...i'm just venting, honestly.
and i don't think martin would tame bradley, but i don't think martin would let other players even hint at that as being a problem with performance of the team.
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
I think you're probably right about Martin, Crunch. But I think before Bradley could have become a distraction, Martin would have dealt with him.
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Roster Projections
I just want to know how loose the clubhouse was after being down six runs after an inning and a half yesterday.
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Roster Projections
for the win....
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections
According to Len Kasper on today's broadcast, the restrooms have been refurbished, Captain Morgan Club is opening soon, and there's a new party room on the sky deck level. Given all this, how can you possibly believe this is "no better than a 3rd place team" ?? Where your spree de corpse?
Re: Cubs Minor League Camp Projections

sale's skills and insane value makes it almost too hard to have a market for the guy...he's got 3/38m owed to him over 3 seasons (2 team options). he could easily pull in 30m/yr if he was on the market as a FA.
he's throwing a bit differently this season, especially with more sliders and less changeups like earlier in his career, but all his stuff still looks great even if the HRs are a little elevated and the Ks are down.
Torres, Happ, McKinney, Jimenez, and Candelario for Sale. Deal or no deal?
"The White Sox are reportedly asking for "five top prospects" for Chris Sale, FanRag Sports' Jon Heyman reports."
Unless he develops 30+ HR power and keeps his walk rate close to his K rate at the MLB level, he's not going to turn into Prince Fielder. And even if he does turn into Prince Fielder, he's gonna have a short prime. His very limited athleticism is likely to also detract some value from his ability to reach base--I don't buy making an out as being preferable to base clogging, but you'd certainly prefer just about any base runner other than Vogelbach, David Ortiz, etc.
seeing as arod has played a total of 27.1 innings of D at 1st/3rd and somehow managed a -0.5 dWAR with his 1 error at 1st and an overall positive total zone rating...he might end up even more in the shitter via the characteristics/flaws/whatever of how some sites determine various WAR values. dWAR doesn't directly lead to a WAR value, but the 2 main entities pushing the most popular variations of WAR sometimes lead to some interesting discrepancies in value.
I have a lot of faith in Baez that he's going to turn into a more consistent, solid player. It looks like it took him about a half season or so of futility at the plate to figure out he was not talented enough to get away with the crazy approach he had. I think his running game will eventually have a more measured aggression.
I hope the D and bullpen show up. Cubs haven't had much luck against Davies, and he's been going well lately. A little uncomfortable with the Cards only 6.5 back--feels like they're right on our tails compared to the 11 game lead I've grown accustomed to.
Cardinals, stop that. Right now.
In a year or two, a lot of fans are going to point at trading him as a mistake. He'll probably be slashing something like 280/400/480 for Seattle at the time. Of course, by WAR, he'll still be worth less than 3, since we're talking zero defensive value.
vogelbomb debut for tacoma (AAA SEA)... 3-3, 1bb, 1 HR, 1 double...DH'd.
while he mostly played 1st considerably more than DH for AAA CHC, DJ Peterson is probably going to see most of the time at 1st for AAA SEA.
Carl Jr.! Very nice!
Baez with another "WTF?" play trying a delayed steal with a runner on 3rd and one out.. Remarkable talent, needs to make better decisions.
m.montgomery up in the pen with a man on 2nd, 2 out, and rondon 20 pitches into the inning.
...and rondon ends it 22 pitches in with a popout to RF.
I gotta say with the crappy defense the Brewers have displayed outside of Fowler I'm pretty disappointed the offense hasn't shown more and Rizzo seems to be very swing happy lately. That said my god am I happy Madden has finally given Carl Edwards a chance after multiple times up with nothing. I don't think he could handle a starting role with his body frame but his stuff plays so well in a relief role and he seems to be able to handle high stress situations very well.
2nd at bat. Fowler is good for the Cubs run differential.
welcome back fowler.
More slow news...
Did Davey Martinez have to bring the shotgun?
glad to see almora going to AAA to get work.
.265/.291/.422 through 86PA...2hr, 7 doubles.
i don't expect too much of an improvement when he's taking over CF next year, but the team doesn't really need him right now as much as they need him to get regular work (imo).

Learning To Teach in An Age of Accountabilityby Arthur T. Costigan, Karen Kepler Zumwalt, Margaret Smith Crocco
View All Available Formats & Editions
Pub. Date: 07/16/2004
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
This book documents the "brave new world" of teacher, administrator, school, and student accountability that has swept across the United States in recent years. Its particular vantage point is the perspective of dozens of new teachers trying to make their way through their first months and years working in schools in the New York City metropolitan area. The issues they grapple with are not, however, unique to this context, but common problems found today in urban, suburban, and rural schools across the United States. The stories in this book offer a compelling portrait of these teachers' encounters with the new culture of accountability and the strategies they develop for coping, even succeeding, within such demanding settings.
Learning to Teach in an Age of Accountability: *introduces research on teaching and engages the "big ideas" concerning teacher research, highlighting what we know and where that leads us;
*offers a rich set of teacher narratives that are organized to widen the angle of vision from biography, to classrooms, schools, and society; and
*includes questions and activities to encourage discussion and further research about the ideas raised; and
*addresses the possibilities for best practice and curricular decision making in light of the issues and ideas presented in the book.
This volume--unique in its portrayal of new teachers' encounters with issues of accountability--makes a singular contribution to the educational literature on new teachers. It is relevant to everyone interested in the contemporary world of teaching, and is particularly appropriate as a text for preservice and in-service students. All readers who believe that the key to a good school lies in attracting and keeping good teachers will find the issues presented here both personally engaging and deeply troubling.

Remember that movie Groundhog Day? Remember how Bill Murray wakes up every single morning to discover that everything - from the date on the calendar to the song on the radio - is exactly the same? David Levithan's Every Day shares a similar thoughtful playfulness about the fantastical predicament its protagonist - known only as A - encounters, but otherwise, the challenges A faces are exactly the opposite. You see, every morning when A wakes up, the world - or at least A's little corner of it - is entirely new. A wakes up in a different body every single day. It's been that way for A's entire life. A always occupies the bodies of people the same age (sixteen, now), and rarely travels outside the mid-Atlantic region. But other than that, A could - and does - wake up each morning in the body of anyone: a marathon runner or a drug addict, a teenage mom or a morbidly obese boy.

April 1, 2008
A growing number of travelers are turning to chartered aircraft as reports of airline delays, canceled flights and deteriorating service become routine. Combined with the advent of per-seat purchase options and block-membership programs, aircraft charter has emerged as an cost-effective alternative to other means of travel for many people.

If you fly often via business jet charter, you know that the peak travel days sprinkled throughout the calendar can mean a limited choice of aircraft as well as price increases. But a little planning can go a long way toward minimizing both drawbacks.

The FAA has issued a Special Federal Aviation Regulation that mandates pilot training in the Mitsubishi MU-2. The move came more than two years after the agency completed its latest evaluation of the aircraft's relatively high accident rate, which has nevertheless fallen in recent years below rates for other popular turboprops such as the Cessna 441 and Turbo Commander.

Two weeks ago Percona announced it's acquisition of Tokutek
(April 14, 2015). The analyst coverage was a bit fluffy for my
liking, but I decided to give it some time and see if anything
"meaty" would come along, and ... it hasn't. The sheer number of
tweets on Twitter was impressive, which makes
me hopeful that the acquisition raised awareness to the Tokutek
technologies and that the Tokutek products have a found a good

Yum! This was simple and so good. I used Jimmy Dean hot sausage and crumbled it. I also used red bell pepper as that is what I had on hand. Very simple and tasty. Thanks Annacia for sharing the nice keeper. Made for PRMR Tag.
Made this for father's day breakfast for DH. He said you can sure make this again. Skip the quiche's and make this instead. Two DS's that were here loved it also. Skipped the greenpepper per preference and added a bit of cut up ham to the blend. This is actually quite a versatile recipe that you could add/omit most any type of meat/veggie. Excellent. Thanks for posting this recipe Annacia. I tagged for Photoforum 08'.~
4 Stars, very good, DH said it had just enough green pepper to offset the innate pastiness of potatoes, and he liked the chunks of sausage. Melting cheese made it irresistable. Served with an egg fried over easy. Used regular Bob Evans sausage, would add freshly ground pepper next time and would crumble sausage before browning. To reduce the 23 g of fat in the recipe, I will explore baking hash brown potatoes on a PAM-sprayed cookie sheet next time, and will halve the amount of hash browns and cheese to make the sausage and green pepper more "important". Made for Newest Zaar Tag 2008 (April). Thanks for posting, Annacia!

amazes me how people make bubbles
The company loses $1.5 billion, sells property to show profits and still miss big time, I agree $6.00 is the right price.
wrong!! they make serious profits from other companies they own such as insurance, they are streamlinig the electronics and looking good for the future. this is what everyone doing now. what is wrong with a company wanting to be responsible and profitable? ive learned my lesson and that is you get what you pay for. i am a sony guy. the quality is there.
i agree with that.
How much do you think the shares will be when the market opens?

Say what you want about the software industry, but if a major player like Oracle says that they are getting into this game, then there must be something to it. I am not aware of Oracle selling " shrink wrap " ready in a box software like Microsoft. The stuff that they sell is expensive and apparently good, or else how could they be the number two software company in the world.Tex

Tests for Breast Cancer Gene Raise Hard Choices
Published: March 5, 2002
(Page 2 of 2)
The researchers also wanted to know how the women felt about knowing they carried a potentially deadly gene and needing a lot of medical care. Lauren Scheuer, a genetic counselor in the study, said: ''There's an enormous spectrum, even in terms of people's reactions being different within the same family. On one end you have people who think knowledge is power, and at the opposite end they view this as the black cloud that looms over them.''
Ms. Scheuer said one patient had made up her mind to have prophylactic mastectomies, even though she had nightmares about it. ''After the surgery, she sounded like the weight of the world had been lifted off her,'' Ms. Scheuer said. ''And that's a common reaction.''
Researchers asked the women who had ovaries or breasts removed to rate their satisfaction after the surgery on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score. All the responses were 4's and 5's, they said. But Ms. Scheuer said many women find ovary removal more difficult than mastectomy because it plunges them into menopause, complete with its unpleasant symptoms.
But many women in the study were willing to take measures that others might find extreme, in hopes of saving their lives. They have dealt with ''extraordinary tragedies'' in their families, Dr. Offit said. Some were so young when their mothers died of breast cancer that they do not even remember them. Some have lost sisters who were in their 20's or 30's.
Mrs. Rettura was 12 when her mother died. She remembers her mother as beautiful, but also as having suffered greatly, and, she said, ''It was like I was waiting all my life to get breast cancer.''
When she heard about BRCA testing, she seized upon it as a means of saving her life. ''I thought, 'Wow, this is something available to me that my mother never had.' Maybe she'd be here today if genetic testing had been available in the 60's.''
Mrs. Rettura also joined Dr. Offit's study, hoping it would help other women, she said. She teaches full time and volunteers on a breast cancer hot line. She has no children, but she has encouraged her brother and his daughter, who may have BRCA2 mutations, to be tested.
''One needs to temper the sense that we are making a medical advance with the extraordinary emotional stresses in these families,'' Dr. Offit said. ''I'd say the greatest psychological factor that motivates women to play such an active role in this type of genetic research is for their daughters. The mothers want very much for the outcomes of their children to be different from the outcomes we've seen. We hope that finding these cancers at earlier stages than would otherwise be expected is a first step toward meeting some of their hopes.''

The No Asshole Rule: Building a Civilized Workplace and Surviving One that Isn't based on 0 ratings. 81 reviews.
I am a television producer who couldn't resist buying this book, since unfortunately, bad behavior is the norm where I live and work. Ironically, it is also a killer of creativity, the one commodity that Hollywood needs on an neverending basis. The book was full of wonderful, relatable examples of how 'certified' a-holes truly create an unproductive and unhealthy work environment, not to mention the personal fallout for the receivers. I especially enjoyed Sutton's little quizzes for determining a-hole behavior, his tips for how to combat being on the losing end, and the last chapter, 'The No A-Hole Rule as a Way of Life.'
Make sure it shouldn't be pointed at yourself. Many thanks to the woman on the flight to Nashville who suggested this book. She was an HR person and even though I am not, I got so much out of this book. And thanks to my Nook for sparking the conversation about "best book you've read lately" on the flight in the first place!
I have never read a book the depicted someone I worked for as closely as this book. Now I fully understand that I'm not crazy and any sane person would have wanted to quit after being treated as poorly as I had been by this one 'asshole' that I worked with. I truly enjoyed this book and at times actually laughed out loud. To think that there is a way to keep these people out of the workplace is awesome. Now all we need to do is make this book mandatory for all HR Managers and every student in college so that they don't become one of them, or better yet, can recognize them for what they truly are.
This book is a manual about making one's work place a nicer place to be. As the title suggests, the focus of the book is on the co-workers, specifically the "tough-to-get-along-with" personalities. The first half of this book is aimed at the higher management, with tips how to weed out those types during the hiring process, as the author logically believes that once they're hired, they influence more of the same type of people to join the company-until the whole place becomes a breeding ground for jerks. Such a work atmosphere, as the author points out, actually hinders productivity and overall morale. Sutton's second half of the book discusses dealing with difficult co-workers. A chapter is devoted to strategies for dealing with them at work, while other chapters are aimed at getting rid of your own inner jerk and, for better understanding, the benefits of acting like a jerk where Sutton explains the psychology behind such behavior. Overall, this was a quick read. Sutton is a professor at Stanford, and actually based this book off a Harvard Review article he wrote about the same topic. I thought the idea behind the book was pretty interesting. If you're looking for a short take on "the toxic workplace," than this is for you.
Sutton the author of this book is a management science and engineering professor from Stanford. In this book he suggests (correctly, in my opinion) that we can all be difficult sometimes and that being difficult can, in certain scenarios, actually contribute to our effectiveness as managers. However, he counteracts this argument with the reality that some people are 'certified¿ you know whats who are difficult to fire because they are often in positions of authority and are mistakenly deemed talented and effective by their superiors. It's a fun and readable book, that shows you how to deal with these folks and create and I think anyone with people issues will benefit from using it to inspire some fresh thinking. The other gem I've found helpful in these situations (for dealing with difficult people and keeping myself under control) is The Emotional Intelligence Quick Book
I am so glad that Bob Sutton's book is an instruction in memory for me rather than the survival guide it is for so many. Thirty years in business means I have seen more than my fair share of a***holes and while they may be inevaitable, they can be resisted and fought. Sutton's real innovation is in creating a 'total cost of a***holes' showing the real detriment to the business that these jerks actually are. Smart, funny, quick and spot-on.
This book is quintessential for all aspects of life. This book helped me to see in all situations that there are people who can disrupt and destroy even the most noble of causes. Highly recommended and empowering.
Great point of view on workplace bullies and there effect of the workplace culture. Adapted from a Harvard Business Review article. Well researched and clearly presented thesis.
There are few revelations in this book for those of us who work in an environment rampant with as*holes. However, it is affirming to have an independent, unsolicited authority describe the perpetrators, the environment and the impact. Sutton's quantification of certified as*holes (CAs) as distinguished from occasional as*holes and his definition of a decent person is useful. Sutton provides an "As*hole Test" and describes the "Dirty Dozen" traits. However, the best indicator is how a higher status person treats a lower status person. The CA consistently insults, demeans and personally attacks those of lesser status. The person that is "persistently warm and civilized toward people of unknown or lower status.is a decent human being". The impact of an overabundance of CAs on employees is devastating because it saps energy and esteem. The results, which are detrimental to both employee and company, include reduced productivity, less work and life satisfaction, heightened depression, irritability and anger. Sutton also points out that in a fear based organization (i.e., management by intimidation) the last thing employees want is the spotlight on them. Hence they are afraid to offer input and help solve problems when they know how to do so. Poor communication, no diversity of ideas, poor morale, and lack of employee empowerment makes a company's decision making much less intelligent. Legal costs are also higher in organizations that are led by or that shelter CAs as employee claims are easier to prove when open hostility runs rampant. In addition, Sutton attempts to quantify the total cost of as*holes (TCA), offers suggestions on how to implement a "No As*hole Rule", and provides some common sense survival strategies for those unable to escape an as*hole rich environment. The tragedy is that those as*holes out there that most need to read this book, especially in senior management, are probably the less likely to do so.
Prof. Sutton's book is a super timely book that should be required reading for employers, as well as our political leaders. Our labour practices are getting more and more weird by the day, week and month. http://exquisitehumanity.blogspot.com/2010/06/unemployed-will-not-be-considered.html
This is a great read! I helped me deal with my own work place situation. I am sooo glad I found this book!
This CD was a great deal from B&N (cheap!) and the content was better than expected. The author, a professor from Stanford, somehow knows a lot more about the workplace than most corporate people I've worked for over the years. He even practices what he preaches...his work group refuses to ruin their civil climate by keeping creeps, bullies, and a**holes OUT of the mix. Oh, how I wish I had the luxury! There's a true story Sutton tells about a community that accidentally loses their a**holes (I won't ruin it for you) that had me in stitches. I've relayed the story to friends and they've cracked up, too. This book should be a required course for management. I've been tempted to leave the CD in my VP's mailbox! Our company could get so much more done if we could get rid of the bullies who stonewall projects, back-stab, and generally make our jobs tougher just because their methods worked on the playground in elementary school.
Robert I. Sutton, Ph.D., professor of organizational behavior, teaches management science at Stanford University. He is a learned, respected academic. Is it odd that such an erudite, sophisticated individual would write a book with profanity in its title? Not according to Sutton. Yes, mean-spirited, nasty people are weasels and dirty rats. But the word that ideally summarizes such a person, Sutton says, is in his title, so that's what he uses. He first employed it in a much-quoted piece in the Harvard Business Review. He expanded that article into this book, which explains why the business world seems to be knee deep in ratfinks, how to avoid them and how to deal with them when you must. getAbstract suggests that if you work in an office or hospital or bank or submarine or massage parlor, or on a cement crew, loading dock, oilrig or spaceship to Mars, you probably must deal with your share of - let's call them weasels. Sutton's book teaches you how to do so most effectively and not get too banged up in the process.
It may seem like pure shock to use the 'A-hole' word in the title of a book, but anyone with life or business experience knows that certain people are gold-plated a-holes. This book is exceptional in that it characterizes their behavior in complete and accurate terms. Moreover, this book addresses the reality that professional cultures can insipre this class of people, or even make them thrive. Microsoft comes to mind as a perfect example. So it's not about whether or not they exist, it's about survival. This book is aid and comfort to the many who suffer through the tyranny of the a-hole.
Sutton gets it just right in this highly entertaining and relevant book. We all know people like those described in the book. And coping with them - or better yet keeping them out of our work lives - is a problem worth solving. It's nice to see someone in academia who embraces the practical concerns of real-life managers. Sutton's blend of case studies and thoughtful analysis is like a tonic for the spirit of those of us who have endured the sphincterage of terrible colleagues. You might wish that Sutton had written this book a while ago. Do your children a favor and save a copy for them. They'll need it.
