| 8 hours ago Overall, I have had a very positive reaction to my work. I try to take pictures without being noticed, and then if I think that there is a potential portrait, as opposed to an observed moment, I will speak to them and ask if it is okay to take a photograph of them. When people say �no� to a portrait it can stay with me for a long time; it can be very painful knowing it could have been something special. Evans basically argued that the black family was more united during slavery; it was unclear if he meant before or after the auction block that separated nearly one third of all enslaved families. For purposes of clarity, perhaps these analysts should return to OPEC�s strategic rationale, which is not to reduce US inventories, but to stop US shale production in its tracks. By that measure, it is failing. We might think that as long as we compare successful companies with unsuccessful ones, and ensure our data are uncontaminated by the halo effect, then we can truly uncover the secrets of success. But this relies on a crucial assumption: that success is, in fact, a signal of high capabilities. In other words, we�re assuming companies that succeed do so because they have efficient processes and valuable insights, even if it�s difficult to uncover precisely what those things are. But the bottom line: freedom of navigation operations are not challenges to �territorial claims� or �sovereignty�; US Navy operations already assume that the other nation has �sovereignty� over the relevant coastline or island. So the US Navy operations near China�s artificial islands can assume that China has sovereignty but still demand the standard transit rights. OPEC�s misery is about a year old In an era of fashion-logo fatigue, Tiffany�s decision last year to launch a new collection with logos all over it looked like a pretty bold move. But it seems to have paid off. �Ask yourself,� says Rosenzweig, �If everyone in your industry followed the same formula, are they all going to be equally successful? No, because it�s a race. If we think there�s a formula, we kid ourselves�it diverts attention from the fact we need to make calculated choices under uncertainty. It�s making those strategic choices, understanding your competition, that�s crucial to success.� |
