Discussion of the archaeological ethics surrounding the collecting of antiquities. Reports are breaking that Jerome Eisenberg of the in New York has returned eight antiquities worth US$510,000 to Italy (Alessandra Migliaccio and Adam L. Freeman.

This comes hard on the heels of the news that has come to an agreement with Italy. The items some of which had already been sold include "three bronze Etruscan statues four vases" and "a 1st century Roman statue of a reclining woman that was used to decorate a fountain". Two items are reported to have been returned to Italy in the fall of 2006. Ariel David notes that most of the returning items were acquired at auction in London during the 1980s. Eisenberg who has been at the over the last few days is quoted as saying: It was the right thing to do and maybe it will set an example for other people. Who are the other people?

I am Partner at Benchmark Capital. Orthodox Jew have seven kids and a very wonderful wife. I live in Jerusalem and work near Tel Aviv. Israel. I lecture all too infrequently at Hebrew University on entrepreneurship sit on the school board and have some not for profit interests. I plan to write on topics related to what I experience in a normal day: Venture Capital the Internet technology kids. Israel Jerusalem. Education and other sundry items. OK. I have reached indigestion on web 2.0. My inbox is continuously filled daily with web 2.0 features. I can recite the business plans by heart before I open them. User Generated content widgets social graphs ads search engine friendly (that is my favorite) etc etc. Enough! These are not companies. They are features. the good news is that this will not be a buuble like the last one because the capital invested is not as great. She is probably right but we are all going to have a feature hangover nonetheless circa 2007. Maybe in quantity but there is one difference:The ad networks are almost all generating revenue and profits even at a small scale. This is all true but misses the core point which is we are not creating anything of meaningful scale. It is the Google satellite solar system being created or other meaningless features. There are still going to be great consumer internet companies built and great ones built out of Israel but these need to be companies and not add-on (or should I say ad-on) features or me too three and four companies. I mean how many answer engines or ad networks does the world need? So when you want to come pitch or send me a plan send me some robotics; I have not seen a robotics deal yet and that feels like an uncrowded space. Even robotics 1.0 would be fine. Find some market space that nobody else has thought of (that would eliminate Cleantech). Or at least send me something that is Web 3.0.

First off I'd like to say I'm flattered (and surprised) that my article. Walk of Shame which was intended to be silly lighthearted and fun has sparked some Stentor controversy. Honestly. I enjoyed reading Jessamyn's interpretation of my article and also her thoughts on my personal beliefs. Overall the best part of her article was her argument that I a 21-year-old female college student support sexual harassment of women. This statement was comical interesting and must have been conjured up through an expansive imagination and great creativity. Had she had the chance to see the original article which includes a paragraph about a senior male who has a walk of shame in his Halloween costume she would have realized I do not support sexual harassment of women and might have assumed I support all sexual harassment no bounds on gender. Yes. I probably should have realized before writing- realized that there are too many people in this student body who think they are too important and take themselves too seriously. It is complaints like "Shame on you Eisenberg" that forces the Stentor to practice a small amount of censorship leaving them in a cookie cutter mold with simple articles about speakers politics and sports. This is why the Stentor has lost a giant amount of the student body's curiosity and is left consciously searching for new columnists. It's college. College is controversial and those offended by common college occurrence (not sexual harassment but the walk of shame because there is a difference) might be better set at nice Catholic institution where sin shame and sex have no presence. Lastly. I think it is important for the Lake Forest student body to know that my article was meant to be humorous and we should all remember in Tom Petty's famous words:"You have four years to be irresponsible here. Relax. Work is for people with jobs. You'll never remember class time but you'll remember time you wasted hanging out with your friends. So stay out late. Go out on a Tuesday with your friends when you have a paper due Wednesday. Spend money you don't have. Drink 'til sunrise. The work never ends but college does..."And don't be afraid it is just a walk of shame. Helen Eisenberg. Senior

Since the early 1980s the Federal Government has provided Small Business Innovation Research –or SBIR—grants to fund research and development projects. In 2003 the ruled that companies that were majority owned by venture capital firms would no longer be eligible for such funding. The biotech industry and its supporters complained that the policy was choking off biomedical innovation and now a that would regenerate eligibility of companies whose majority owners are VCs is before Congress. The Office of Management and Budget and have come out against the legislation arguing that it would allow large businesses and universities in the door and deny funding for many deserving recipients. SBIR grants be only 2.5 percent of Federal investigate dollars they lay out and independently owned non-dominant players should be entitled to all of it. I spoke today with.

In this week’s interview. Dean Rotbart and Michael Drew address the likelihood of a book idea becoming a publishing success. In their discussion they reveal how to identify whether your idea is bestseller material. Do you really have a sure-fire idea for a bestseller? Hear what they have to say. February 12. 1809 was a day that changed the world forever. Not just because a child born on this day went go from being a dirt-poor farm boy to being the President of the United States but also for so many other amazing things he accomplished. Just the mere mention of this man’s name brings numerous images into one’s head: He freed the slaves he kept this country together through its most destructive war and he taught himself to write with a piece of draw on the back of a shovel in a log cabin. If you ask 10 people what they remember about his life story you could get 10 different things. As for me the thing I remember most is what this man said and stood for: “Things may come to those who wait but only the things left by those who displace.” And “Honest Abe” knew how to hustle. Abe certainly believed that “all men are created equal,” but he also showed that just because we are created equal doesn’t mean we have to remain that way. He understood that opportunity is everywhere and what sets people apart are attitude and effort. How else can you explain how a man with 11 major defeats in his life — everything from losing his first job failing in business and losing his first sweetheart to having a nervous breakdown and losing several elections — kept persevering to win the presidential election in 1860? As you can see this man never settled for just enough. He kept pushing the limits. I imagine him as being a terrific salesperson for I am sure he would say. “Sales is a numbers game; if you want to change more carry me more opportunities.” After all he knew a great deal about persuasion saying: “When the care of men is designed to be influenced persuasion kind unassuming persuasion should ever be adopted. It is an old and a true maxim that a ‘displace of honey catches more flies than a gallon of gall.’” What he understood was that people you are trying to change to are really hoping to buy something from you; you just have to make sure you don’t disappoint them. The same is adjust with the numerous opportunities that occur in your day-to-day business. Are your.
