...most effective way to leverage the expertise of our College staff members” and would help "eliminate redundancy" as well.Mitchell said on Friday that he could not discuss personnel issues, including the specific roles of the five departing staffers or the total number of positions in either office, due to privacy concerns. A total of 13 staff members are currently listed on ORL and OSLA's Web sites, however, suggesting that the consolidation will eliminate a substantial percentage of positions devoted to student activities and residential life.Hammonds wrote in an e-mailed statement Friday that the office shuffling...
This effect can also occur when experiments are more open-ended. The authors cite a 1991 study in which participants were asked to recall either six or 12 examples of instances when they behaved assertively. "Paradoxically," the authors write, "those in the 12-example condition rated themselves as less assertive than did those in the six-example condition. Participants apparently inferred from their difficulty retrieving 12 examples that they must not be very assertive after...

But contrast that with a grid city like Manhattan, where cardinal directions might make much more sense...

And if they associate your arrival with damage and death, they are probably...
...Does the Pakistan military have the ability to fight that war? What is your strategy to help them? I don't think the hammer-and-anvil metaphor works here, because frankly, there is not enough force on either side to be hammer or anvil. I do think that as we both do counterinsurgency, it has a less obvious controlling factor against the people who operate. What we are doing is reducing the relative safe haven on either side. There is a long way to go with this, though. I don't want to give the impression that we are near...
