Two studies by psychologists from the University of Surrey show that men who flirt at work don't do it with romantic intentions, but out of pure boredom. It also seems that they are emotional dimwits. |
The study, presented at the British Psychological Society's annual conference, collected the answers from 200 men and women on different questions, from "Do you flirt at work?" to their job satisfaction level. |
The results? According to the researchers who presented their findings at the annual conference of the British Psychological Society, "employees who are less satisfied at work may tend to become more bored and, in an attempt to make their work more enjoyable, they may opt to flirt with colleagues." |
Their emotional intelligence level is low too, they added. |
Surfuckingprising. [Daily Mail |

Become a wizard of multitasking |

On 12 September 2010 The Chicago Tribune reported: |
Dr Mehmet Oz says his practice of Transcendental Meditation helps create harmonious relationships in his many work settings. Dr Oz is a heart surgeon who also appears on television and writes extensively. |
It is a joy for Global Good News service to feature this news, which indicates the success of the life-supporting programmes Maharishi has designed to bring |
fulfilment to the field of health. |
He is 'a master of multitasking. Plus, surprisingly, he's a genuine, calm and down-to-earth guy,' the article reports. |
When asked 'how he maintains such a calm presence', Dr Oz speaks about the Transcendental Meditation Programm |
I am looking for a safe web font for chinese, similar to Facsimile font. |
The concept is old fashion arcade games. |
You should be able to convert these to a web format and use on your website quite easily. |
As for being web-safe fonts: |
But, as far as I'm aware - there is no font containing Chinese characters that will give you pixelized, arcade-alike image right from the box. Your best bet is using one of small-size fonts and artificially up-scale it in post processing (eg. Photoshop) while preserving hard edges for pixelized looks. |
I'm afraid there's no easier solution than that. Availability of Chinese fonts is rather poor and if you want to find a font that reminds some specific style - usually it's on the edge of impossibility. |
Fun fact: in the Chinese market you cannot use any bitmap fon |

As its billing suggests, the name of the game is mashed chickpeas spiked with garlic, coriander, and cumin, rolled into little balls, and fried to a light crunch. These beauties are then slipped into warm pita and jazzed up with myriad toppings—turmeric-tinged cabbage and jalapeño-fueled herb sauce are particularly del... |

So Brad Pitt is set to play Steve McQueen in a biopic? Here’s the car he’ll have to master: McQueen’s 1963 Lusso. Some say it’s the most beautiful Ferrari ever built. |
But a Ferrari in chestnut brown? |
As far as I recall, these were my first words when I heard the news that Steve McQueen’s first Ferrari, chassis number 4891GT, was set to go on the auction block. While far from being a rosso corsa purist and nurturer of a great soft spot for midnight blue 612 Scagliettis, brown sounded all wrong for a Ferrari. Think b... |
Little did I know that two years later, I would be looking at McQueen’s Lusso beneath the namesake for its paintjob—a chestnut tree—and realize that in person, it’s shockingly b |

Herb Tucker is the kind of guy who thinks dressing up is wearing a blazer over a Jaws t-shirt. He can never sleep even after he takes a pill and his screenwriting opportunities have taken a nosedive. |
So, as one can see, things were going pretty well when his daughter, Libby, shows up in his living room sixteen years after he walked out on her, her brother, and their mother. |
Now Herb really wishes he could catch some Zzzs. |

Is there a network of musicians who can record musical phrases/tracks for other musicians? |
I an an amateur musician, I write and record songs (voice, guitar, and virtual instruments such as keyboards, drums, etc.).

A few notes on [hdotu]unayn's translation and Ibn al-nafis' commentary on the first book of the aphorisms |
Arabic Sciences and Philosophy 10 (1):139-150 (2000) |
|Abstract||The Hippocratic Aphorisms is a well-known treatise which was very popular throughout the ages. This paper studies the Arabic translation of [Hdotu]unayn ibn Ishaq, the renowned Arab translator, of the first book of the Aphorisms as well as the commentary of Ibn al-Nafis, the thirteenth-century Arab doctor, o... |
There is no ultimate/universal/perfect way to learn or practice. A student can need to practice a certain difficult piece with hands separate for a while and another will learn faster/better practicing hands together from the start. As long as the student can play the piece right in the end, it really doesn't matter. |
I don't think memory slips have anything to do with practicing hands separate or together. For certain pieces, practicing hands individually can help define the main lines at first, for example when the LH and RH parts combine unconventional rhythms. But since anyway one will need to play the piece using both hands, I ... |

(CNN) - It’s no secret that education in America is broken. We can’t define a good school, let alone figure out a way to measure success. Yet when money is tight, as it is right now because of the forced budget cuts, the first thing to be cut is always the arts. And that’s a tragedy. |

Children love to draw, and their work is a reflection of their inner world. Most kids don't think about or censor their artwork. For the past 40 years, I've used children's drawings as an important part of my pediatric practice. At each well-child visit beginning at 4 or 5 years old, our nurse asks the child to "draw a... |
The family drawing helps me survey development at a given moment in time, and it may tip me off to potential problems. A single drawing is a snapshot of a child's point of view -- of her role in the family, her relationship to other family members, and her self-esteem. It also may show strengths in |
