These kids are growing up the right way. Please take notes, new and expecting parents.

WTF

A question that simply must be asked: Is this the most baffling music video ever made?

FAIL

These Boy Scout leaders decided to destroy a rock formation in a Utah state park. The formation just happened to be 20 million years old.

LOL

You decided this was the year. You were going to run a marathon. Then you realized how hard training was.

CUTE

You can't prank dogs. So don't even try.

'Phenotype switching' can make melanoma become metastatic, resistant to drugs

Posted: 18 Oct 2013 05:36 PM PDT

One of the challenges of understanding cancer is trying to determine the mechanisms that drive metastasis, or the process by which tumor cells are able to spread throughout the body. Researchers describe how melanoma tumors use "phenotype switching" -- changing their outward appearance -- can result in melanoma cells that are highly invasive and more resistant to therapy.

Challenges, opportunities for reducing antibiotic resistance in agricultural settings

Posted: 18 Oct 2013 10:23 AM PDT

Antibiotic resistant pathogens are an emerging, critical human health issue. The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared antibiotic resistance as a top health issue worldwide. Two million Americans are infected each year with diseases resistant to known antibiotics; between ten and fifteen thousand die. Interdisciplinary standards are needed for studying antibiotic resistance in agriculture to help rectify its wide-reaching problems.

#HRTech Vendors: InfluenceHR is Monday, October 28 in NYC

Posted: 19 Oct 2013 03:45 AM PDT

As some of you know, I am co-producing an event called InfluenceHR. Founded by George LaRocque, it is a marketing symposium focused on the human resources technology space.

(What does that mean? Well, the HR technology market is hot. That’s what Josh Bersin says. But no one benefits from another trade show. So InfluenceHR is an educational event to make marketing better.)

I am lucky to work on this project because I get to program a conference that is interesting, educational and fun.

Our keynote speaker in Mike Volpe, the CMO of Hubspot. (Marketing is making news, this week, with the acquisition of Compendium.)
Madeline Laurano is keynoting our midday session. She’s pulling back the curtain on today's analyst community. (This session is long overdue.)
We have a human resources panel hosted by Josh Schwede. He will talk to HR leaders about successful vendor relationships and unsuccessful marketing campaigns. (I’m glad to see fellow HR colleagues in the room!)
My friend Don MacPherson is hosting a session called, “Marketing on a Bootstrap Budget.” Don has a real story to tell because Modern Survey is a thriving, profitable business. (I am excited that he is coming to NYC to share his company’s story — but I’m selfish and happy to see my friend, too.)

I don’t often talk about work . . . but programming InfluenceHR is hardly work.

And after the hullabaloo of HR Tech, which was pretty fun itself, it is nice to attend an event where leaders can deconstruct what’s going right with their marketing and messaging strategies. And George has created an interesting event where people can ask open, honest questions about how to do things better.

So I hope to see you in New York City on October 28th!
