2,000 jobs axed at RIM - CBC News - http://www.cbc.ca/news...
Research in Motion announced plans to cut about 2,000 jobs, or 11 percent of its global workforce. North American employees will begin to receive their notices this week. Business analysts have speculated part of those losses can be attributed to RIM's failure to keep up with its competitors in the communications market, such as Apple and Google. The late launch of its iPad-like tablet, the PlayBook, is considered a specific failure.

RIM has a huge problem with strategy and leadership. I'm struggling to understand how cutting some costs will solve this.
- Winckel
Allows them to spend more on the Apple TV killer they are working on.. #RIMShot
- Me
Henry, that is exactly the sentiment of the article: "The cuts also won't make any difference to RIM's current market share." The changes in management may be a different story, but I doubt it.
- Stephan Planken
Apparently 1500 of those being laid off have been hired since February this year. If so, they have big problems.

Is it ok for a guy to wear a tie with a short sleeve shirt?
John (bird whisperer) and Kenton liked this
can a guy wear a short sleeve shirt in a work environment that says its attire is "business"?
- Nathalie
It doesn't make a lot of sense to do so (ties, in the beginning, were to warm the neck).
- Spidra Webster
Is it a dress shirt?
- Kenton
Spidra: I suppose not in that case...
- Nathalie
Places that are really hot that make their employees wear long-sleeved business shirts are just cruel.
- Spidra Webster
Kenton: yes.
- Nathalie
Husband just got a new job. he's never really worked in a "business" environment before. I'm still thinking this place must be business casual and he didn't understand that - but he claims it's "business"... He's short (no pun intended) on long sleeve shirts - since it is summer - should we bother investing in a bunch of long sleeve shirts? or can he get away with short until the fall?
- Nathalie
I'm certainly no expert, but as long as they are just short-sleeved version of long sleeved shirts, I don't see why he couldn't wear them.
- Kenton
What Kenton said. Unless it's a seriously formal environment, I'd think those shirts should do, esp if you live somewhere hot.
- Spidra Webster
I've worn ties with short sleeve dress shirts.
- John (bird whisperer)
Calgary does get quite hot in the summer.

My boss does that all the time - short sleeved dress shirt, tie. When we're working with customers, guys have to wear suit/tie, and he gets too warm with the long-sleeved shirts except in winter.

"With one, autonomous slash of the pen, every state penny for the arts in my home of Kansas has vanished, simultaneously obliterating all matching federal funds. This is the Sunflower State that I have proudly boasted about across the world, fearlessly defending it even in the face of harsh quizzical looks from the most skeptical of folks (“You live where?”). It’s the state of my first piano recital and choir concert. The home field of my artistic curiosity and education. The homeland that taught me to freely dream big and without limitation; one where the arts were once alive, vibrant and supported. I’ve welcomed the assumption of being an unsolicited but mightily proud artistic ambassador for Kansas to the great cities of the world. Now, for the first time, I feel shame. Eliminating a state arts commission is an ignorant, short-sighted, fearful and unspeakably damaging act to the spirit and soul of this great state."

Now, my true feelings about Weiner: I feel sorry for him and hope that he gets back on his feet as soon as possible. I hope he gets emotional support from his family and friends. He messed up a bit, but not nearly as much as many other people. The problem was that he messed up on the wrong stage.

Group 2B: The agent is possibly carcinogenic to humans.
Morton Fox, Eivind and Kenton liked this
This category is used for agents for which there is limited evidence of carcinogenicity in humans and less than sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity in experimental animals. It may also be used when there is inadequate evidence of carcinogenicity in humans but there is sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity in experimental animals. In some instances an agent for which there is inadequate evidence of carcinogenicity in humans and less than sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity in experimental animals together with supporting evidence from mechanistic and other relevant data may be placed in this group. An agent may be classified in this category solely on the basis of strong evidence from mechanistic and other relevant data.
- Victor Ganata
So this is where they put stuff when everyone is pressuring them to rate it as cancer causing but they really have no proof that it is.
- Kenton
There are some positive studies. They just don't reach the level that they would consider adequate or sufficient.
- Victor Ganata
There is only one chemical in the lowest, "doesn't cause cancer" category.

Until she broke down and took me to get my eyes checked... It was pretty quick, though - less than a month from my first complaint to the eye exam!
