I work for BP's trading organization. We just had a round table discussion about how to get more women into higher level roles, and into trading. Our Head of Trading said that we were going to start "recruiting female athletes for the intern trading program, as long as they can count." This was after he attested to "giving permission" to the recruiters to lower the bar so they would get more female recruits. I guess it's #MFIF

On May 3, the "Iron Man 3" will hit movie theaters like a repulsor ray blast and has the potential to become one of the box office triumphs of 2013.
If you've seen the trailers, you know the villain this time around is the mysterious Mandarin. But did you know the Mandarin's first appearance in comic books was back in 1964 as one of Iron Man's earliest villains?
In fact, a lot of things happened in Iron Man's early years in the comics that have a big influence on the superheroes in recent movies, including a certain super team whose much-anticipated second movie will be released in summer of 2015 and whose villain also first appeared in the pages of an Iron Man comic book. With those things in mind, let's take a look at the early Iron Man and some of his most significant—and valuable—comic books.
As most comic book fans know, Iron Man first appeared in Marvel Comics' Tales of Suspense #39 (March 1963). Marvel's editor and chief writer Stan Lee came up with the idea of brilliant playboy billionaire industrialist inventor Tony Stark who would design an iron suit to protect his injured heart and in the process give him super powers. However, with deadlines looming, Lee handed off the writing chores for the premier issue to Larry Lieber, Stan's younger brother, who also wrote the origin stories of Thor and Ant-Man (who later became Giant-Man/Goliath).
As designed by cover artist Jack Kirby—in the early years, Marvel's comic book covers were always done first, followed by the interior art—Iron Man's costume was gray and bulky, making him look like a robot. The interior penciling was done by veteran artist Don Heck.
It was Stan Lee's decision to make the early Iron Man a Cold War warrior battling the evil of Communism. In the premier issue, inventor Stark is testing experimental transistor-powered weapons in the jungles of Vietnam when he's injured by an explosive booby trap and taken prisoner by the Communists. Although injured by a piece of shrapnel that is working its way toward his heart, the Communists task him with developing new weapons for themselves. Instead, he secretly constructs a transistorized armored suit that also serves as a pacemaker to keep his injured heart beating. As super-powered Iron Man, he defeats the Communists and escapes, but must always wear his iron chest plate, which must be electrically recharged on a regular basis, or he will die.
The decision to make Stark a wealthy military industrialist was an interesting one, seeing as most comics of the day were aimed at young people, who at the time were mostly anti-war and certainly did not support the war-profiting munitions industry. Although Stark invented weapons, he was also working for the good guys, and his good looks—Heck made him look like a young Howard Hughes—combined with his precarious health condition, made him an instant hit, especially with the female fans. Soon, Tales of Suspense, originally launched in 1959 as an anthology suspense/sci-fi comic, would become one of Marvel's bestsellers. And issue #39 would become one of the most valuable comics of the Silver Age, with an estimated value of $70,000-plus today in top condition.
In his second appearance (Tales of Suspense #40, April 1963) Iron Man's armor changes from gray to gold, although it still has that bulky robotic look. Scripted by Ray Burns, the story featured a forgettable bad guy named Gargantus, with cover art by Kirby (inked by Heck) and interior art by Heck. Heck would continue to be Iron Man's main artist for the next two years.
In issue #45 (September 1963) Lee and co-writer Robert Bernstein introduced two new characters to the Iron Man mythos—Pepper Potts and Happy Hogan. Pepper, Stark's red-haired secretary, is in love with her employer, who harbors similar feelings, but hides them due to his injured heart and dual identity. The character is played by Gwyneth Paltrow in the Iron Man movies.
Happy Hogan is a former boxer who saves Stark's life and becomes his chauffeur and personal assistant in issue #45. As originally written, his character is smitten by Pepper Potts, who responds to his awkward advances with caustic remarks. Drawn by Don Heck, Happy has cauliflower ears from his boxing career and a perpetually sad expression. He's played by actor/director Jon Favreau in the Iron Man films.
That same month—September 1963—Iron Man became one of the founding members of Marvel's new super team, the Avengers. In issue #1 (September 1963) Iron Man, alongside Thor, the Hulk, Ant-Man and the Wasp, battled Thor's evil brother Loki. Written by Stan Lee and featuring artwork by Jack Kirby, the comic is ranked in the top 100 of the world's most valuable comics with an estimated value of $50,000-plus.
In Tales of Suspense #48 (December 1963), Iron Man finally gets his streamlined red and gold armor, thanks to fill-in artist Steve Ditko, the co-creator of Spider-Man. In issue #49 (January 1964) Iron Man has a crossover adventure with the X-Men, who had just gotten their own comic book four months earlier. Jack Kirby once again did the cover art and Steve Ditko the interior penciling.
Tales of Suspense #50 (February 1964) saw the first ever appearance of the Mandarin. Written by Stan Lee with cover art by Kirby and penciling by Heck, the Mandarin was a Chinese/English megalomaniac wearing a costume party mask, loose robe and 10 power rings he adapted from alien technology found on a crashed spaceship. Although he was constantly trying to conquer the world, he also possessed a strong sense of honor. A genius scientist superhumanly skilled in the martial arts, the Mandarin has been ranked No. 81 on IGN's top 100 Greatest Comic Book Villains of All Time list.
Two other well-known superheroes also made their early debuts in Tales of Suspense. In issue #52 (April 1964), the Black Widow appeared in her first comic book. Created by Stan Lee and co-writer Don Rico, the Black Widow—a.k.a. Natasha Romanoff/Romanova—was a non-costumed Russian spy who later defected to the U.S., became a SHIELD operative and eventually an Avenger. Played by Scarlett Johansson in the films, the Black Widow was ranked the 31st Sexiest Woman in Comics by Comics Buyers Guide.
Hawkeye first appeared as a bow-and-arrow-slinging villain in Tales of Suspense #57 (September 1964). Teaming up with the Black Widow, the two take on Iron Man with predictable results. Hawkeye, whose alter ego is Clint Barton, later became a good guy and joined the Avengers. Played by Jeremy Renner in the movies, Hawkeye is ranked No. 44 on IGN's Top 100 Comic Book Heroes list.
Other issues of note include #58 (October 1964), where Iron Man battles the newly resurrected Captain America; #59 (November 1964), when Captain America joins him as a regular feature in Tales of Suspense; and #61 (January 1965), in which we first learn the origin of the Mandarin. In issue #73 (January 1966), Gene Colan succeeded Don Heck as the new Iron Man artist. Colan did his first work under the pseudonym Adam Austin because he was still doing freelance work for DC Comics at the time.
In 1968, Marvel was selling 50 million comics annually and decided to expand its superhero line. Characters who had been allotted only half a comic book were given their own titles, including the Incredible Hulk and the Sub-Mariner (who shared Tales To Astonish), Dr. Strange and Nick Fury, Agent of SHIELD (who starred in Strange Tales, Captain America, Iron Man and Tales of Suspense).
That, in turn, led to the publishing of a one-shot comic book notable for being the first Marvel title intentionally published for only one issue. Iron Man and Sub-Mariner #1 (April 1968) was published solely to use two half-length stories left over from their previous books—Iron Man from Tales of Suspense #99 (March 1968) and the Sub-Mariner from Tales To Astonish #101 (March 1968). The comic features an 11-page Iron Man story credited to Stan Lee and Archie Goodwin, with art by Gene Colan and inker Johnny Craig (of EC Comics fame) and an 11-page Sub-Mariner story co-written by Lee and Roy Thomas with art by Colan.
Iron Man finally made his solo debut in Iron Man #1 (May 1968). Very Fine to Near Mint copies of the 12-cent comic book, written by Archie Goodwin with art by Colan and Craig (who, incidentally, would take over the penciling chores for the next three issues) had been selling for around $500. But prices have been rising steadily since the first Iron Man movie in 2008 and could be headed for the upper stratosphere if the new movie is as good as it looks.
So what about the villain in the upcoming Avengers movie? That would be Thanos, the giant alien who first appeared in Iron Man #55 (February 1973). Co-written by artist Jim Starlin and Mike Friedrich, the comic is steadily increasing in value and there are some in the industry who believe it could rival Iron Man # 1 by the time "Avengers 2" opens. Time will tell.

From Victor Davis Hanson:
Careerism often drives campus politics. If poor, minority or first-generation college students could obtain the traditional tools of success — English and mathematic literacy, acquaintance with American history and protocols, oral and written language mastery — they would succeed as individuals without need for the college industry of collective victimology that assumes a permanent lack of parity.
Employers and the adult world no longer equate a bachelor's degree with proof of a well-rounded education. Yet chastised universities usually oppose any objective measurement of their effectiveness. They certainly want federally insured student loans, but they do not want proof of their competency through national exit tests, which might help ensure that all graduates leave college able to compute, read and write well. How odd that standardized tests are permissible to judge entering students but not to certify exiting ones.
In the past, there was a clear bargain. The university said, "Leave us alone to do our business that we know best, and we promise to turn out the best-educated and most inductive generation of American youth."
Universities are now breaking their word. Students, if they even graduate (about four in 10 do not, even after six years), are not "universally" educated. Instead, they are the least prepared yet most politicized graduates in memory. Arrogance and ignorance are a bad combination.
Unless what the U needs to create is a self-assured urban mob, suited to a high-tech age.
The market is already sensing a void — and thus opportunity. Online degree programs proliferate. Private vocational and trade schools sprout up around college campuses. Even Ivy League degrees have become mostly empty brand names, like Gucci or Versace, that convey status and open doors but hardly guarantee that graduates are knowledgeable or inductive thinkers. More.
Reality check: Doubtless. But whether the U's know it or not, they are in the business of providing education for a post-employment society
In future most actual education will increasingly be via MOOCs (massive online open courses), to which universities are irrelevant. The MOOCs may operate from current universities as from a platform but the universities of the precious little asshats are irrelevant to a MOOC's aims.

Seems like everyone software company and their ill-begotten, half-breed sister has a toolbar they want you to install on your computer. Most of these things are evil and do nothing to really help you! In fact, 90% of them simply track your web browsing happiness and report back on your habits. That way targeted ads and even more spyware can be dumped on your screen. I mean, you have a gorgeous 22″ screen, why use it all for browsing right? Fill up at _least_ one third with pixel-wasting toolbars and never click on them. Maybe they make you look/feel important that you were special enough and were chosen to have a toolbar from <insert major website name of choice>?
Well, since everyone else is in on this, and it must be making someone some money. I thought I'd design one myself! Heck, I want to make you feel important while corrupting your browsing experience too! I don't want to be left out of this obviously fun game! So here are the features you will see. Keep in mind that this 'customer web browsing enhancement tool' is in beta stage of development so not all features will be listed or complete.
Introducing the TUBMH(Totally Useless But Must Have) Jaded Tech Toolbar!!!
Toolbar Size: Since the more toolbars you have, the more important you feel, I decided to do you one better. I've gone with the 'bigger is better' style! Yes, my toolbar is a full 4 Inches tall! That's right! With a toolbar of this size, you cannot help but feel important that your 'browsing experience' will be enhanced tremendously!
Browsing Enhancements: You will note that there are a number of drop-down menus where you can make changes to the options.
Browsing Speed: Options – 50%
– you will only ever see 50% here. I figure that if your browser is slower than normal, then you will feel that you are actually getting something with this tool bar! What good is a toolbar is it doesn't affect your browser speed?
Ad Pop-Ups: Options – 5/10/20
– Since you were too cheap to donate to my cause, I give you the options of how many ads you will see on your screen at any given moment. My sponsors don't pay so well either so I had to start with a minimum of 5! Don't worry, your friends will be impressed at the quality of ads as well as the remarkable companies that are represented!
** Breaking News!!! YouPorn has just signed up! They are a great paying client! So as long as our contract with them lasts longer than 6 months, I may drop down the minimum number of ads to 4! Woo-Hoo! What a great addition for your browsing experience too!
Spyware: Options – "yes"
– Being the ever-incredible marketer that I am, I decided why hide anything? Spyware obviously works and makes money, so I decided to add some in and tie it into my whole income-generating machine. Don't worry, you'll never loose the spyware as I've made arrangements with Spybot & AdAware to ignore my toolbar. This cost me quite a bit but the income generated from the ads you'll be forced to click on will more than cover it! Can't deprive you of 'customer browsing enhancement experience' now can I?
Invite Friends: Options – "every web page"
– Now, knowing that 'word of mouth' has always been the best form of advertising, I've built that into this toolbar to help spread the word! With this single option, you will be forced to enter in an email address of a friend to send the TUBMH Jaded Tech Toolbar to for every page you visit! By doing so, I will be using your incredibly glowing email to your friend (don't worry, I'll have it all pre-defined so all you'll have to do is click send!). Thank you for you for your support!
Sponsor Redirect: Options – "yes"
– Having been around the Internet (and before), I've seen it all! I know where all the good sites are and know which are the bad ones. I've contacted all the good ones, made arrangements with them to generate more traffic to their sites and in turn I'll get paid for it! Talk about a win-win situation! So with this option set, whenever you type in an address, you will be redirected to a different site that offers similar content but at a much higher-quality! Don't worry, I know what's best for your browsing experience! The TUBMH Jaded Tech Toolbar is designed to give you nothing but the best!
Home Page Rotation: Options – "yes"
– Seeing as you are too cheap to help out poor software writers in India, I've had to take extra steps to ensure the cost of the TUMBH Jaded Tech Toolbar is covered. This means I have setup agreements with certain websites that will rotate as your homepage everytime you open the browser. Warning!!! Not Suitable to Children under 18(or whatever the legal age for porn is in your country!).
It seems that some people were complaining that the TUMBH Jaded Tech Toolbar was just _too_ big for those who owned a 19″ monitor. To accommodate my adoring fans, I have implemented a 'variable size' that is automatically adjusted based-on the size of your monitor. The ratio is 1″ of TUMBH Jaded Tech Toolbar for ever 4″ of Monitor Size. That way everyone is treated fairly! Thank you for your constructive feedback! Keep it up!
Stay Tuned for more awesome products from The Jaded Tech!

text: Reality TV, traffic law still function in Iraq In the midst of violence and despair in Baghdad, at least two institutions are working smoothly, according to September stories in, respectively, The Washington Post and Los Angeles Times. "Iraq Star," an "American Idol"-type reality TV show, attracted 10,000 contestants for 45 slots in filming at the downtown Baghdad Hotel, and will be shown locally and around the Arab world. Other reality-style shows are in the works. Second, the almost 3,500 Baghdad traffic officers still command high respect despite the city's other problems. Said an engineer, "The traffic law is the only thing nowadays that functions correctly." Compelling explanations The 30-year-old traditional festival of eel-"bowling" in the fishing village of Lyme Regis, England, was canceled in July after complaints from an animal rights activist that it was disrespectful to eels. In the ritual, teams of anglers stand on platforms and swing a giant (but dead) conger eel, attached to the ceiling, to see who will be the last person standing. Said a spokesman for the charitable event, which raises money for lifeboat crews, "But it's a dead conger, for Pete's sake. I shouldn't think the conger could care one way or another." Leon Howard Matter was arrested in Sandusky, Ohio, in August for sending a letter containing "anthrax" (though it turned out to be harmless powder) to the local FBI office. He told agents the reason he did it was because he was facing earlier child pornography charges and didn't want to go to prison for that because he'd get beaten up. Threatening the FBI, he reasoned, has a better cachet. Lame: After police found 638 marijuana plants in a Hastings, England, warehouse rented by David Churchward in September, he said he was forced to grow the plants (which would make more than 280,000 marijuana cigarettes) to help his wife, because she has difficulty sleeping. And Reuters reported in September that a farm woman in Lobez, Poland, who had been charged with growing marijuana, said she was forced to because her cow had been acting "skittish and unruly" until she put cannabis in the feed. Especially lame At the York Crown Court in England in September, Antonia Pearson-Gaballonie, 36, was convicted of having enslaved a 26-year-old housekeeper from 1997 to 2005 despite her defense that the woman had actually been earning the equivalent of about $55 a week during that time and that all she had to have done was ask for it, but she never did. At the Wimbledon Magistrates' Court in England in July, Andrew Curzon was charged with wrongfully attempting to cash a neighbor's pension-adjustment check, in the equivalent of about $220,000. The explanation by Curzon (who is a law student) is that he has "dyspraxia," which renders him unable "to engage in logical thinking." Ironies U.S. Rep. Bob Ney of Ohio agreed to plead guilty in September to corruption charges stemming from investigations of the disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff, and even though Ney faces as much as 27 months in prison, he will still be eligible for a congressional pension (based on 12 years' service) when he gets out. Earlier this year, Congress passed a corruption-reform bill, which Ney enthusiastically supported, which would have caused a congressman in Ney's position to forfeit his pension, but the bill has been stalled in a House-Senate conference and was not enacted before Ney's plea was accepted. More Ironies: (1) WEWS-TV in Cleveland reported in August that the pregnancy rate among girls at Timken High School in Canton, Ohio, was 13 percent, despite the fact that the school's athletic teams are known as the Trojans. (2) Police Chief Michael Chitwood of Daytona Beach, Fla., reported that his house was burglarized in August during the time he was speaking to a Neighborhood Watch group on crime prevention. (3) In August, Kosco, a police dog assigned to the Watertown, N.Y., force, was the first cop on the scene to bring down Mark A. Adams, 22, who had eluded officers for seven hours after violating probation for cruelty to his pet dog. Charmers In Tacoma, Wash., in September, a smirking Ulysses Hardy III, 24, pleaded guilty to three aggravated murders, laughed at the victims' families in court, and told them to "get over it" and that "(p)ain is part of life." Hardy said there are two kinds of people, "us and them, predators and prey," and that he's "damn sure not prey." "(I) did what I did. And that's not going to change." A week earlier in Norristown, Pa., Janeske Vargas, 35, was sentenced to life in prison for setting a friend on fire with vodka and nail polish remover, but said she had nothing to say in court to her friend's family. "No, why should I? ... They'll get over it." Least competent criminals (1) Bryan Sanderson was arrested minutes after allegedly committing his second bank robbery of the day in York County, Va., in September. Sanderson's main misjudgment, according to police, was making his getaway both times in his company home-inspection van with "Sanderson Services" on the side. (2) More Anthrax Stupidity: New Yorkers Donald Ray Bilby, 30, in July, and Abdullah Date, 18, in August, were, respectively, convicted and arrested for sending anthrax threats to authorities in envelopes that each contained their correct return addresses. (Date allegedly also included a taunting note reading, "Catch me if you can.") Recurring themes Urinating continues to be a dangerous activity (even fatal, over the years, among several men who had stopped on the side of the road at night to answer nature's call and fallen down slopes to their deaths, as News of the Weird has reported). In July, an Australian man, looking for a place to relieve himself near the Commercial Drive SkyTrain station in East Vancouver, British Columbia, fell about 100 feet into a ravine, but tree branches broke his fall, and he survived.

William F. Dietrich, a self-made man who rose from accountant to president of Green Giant and later started his own venture capital firm, has given Florida Atlantic University $700,000 for its philosophy department.
Dietrich, 88, of Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, gave $600,000 for an eminent scholar chair in philosophy, which will draw a $420,000 grant from the state. The chair earns interest and pays for a scholar`s salary and other needs.
Another $100,000 gift from Dietrich frees an additional $50,000 from the state, creating an endowed professorship that is used up in a shorter period, FAU officials said on Thursday.
A Fort Lauderdale physician helped persuade Dietrich to make the gift.
``It wasn`t too hard. Mr. Dietrich is a very good humanitarian,`` said Dr. Erwin Vasquez, a cardiologist for Dietrich.
``I admire the man a great deal. He has taught me a great deal about life. The money is not important. It`s what you do with it. How you use it,`` Vasquez said.
Vasquez thinks the gift by Dietrich to FAU will be important in helping South Florida mature from a young, rapidly growing community.
``We need to create an environment of intellect,`` he said.
Dietrich considered giving the money to FAU three or four years ago. Family members instead persuaded him to give a gift first to the University of Minnesota medical school and its molecular biology studies because Minnesota was ``where he made his money,`` his wife said.
Upon leaving Green Giant, a Minnesota-based vegetable producing company, at 57, Dietrich started a venture capital company. Along the way, he wrote a book, The Philosophy of the Business of Living, his wife said.
The gift by Dietrich, who has lived in South Florida for 25 years, helps create the 10th eminent scholar chair at FAU.
