Leadership
a: Martin scorsese directing style ~
b: Bill Walsh's coaching style
What: Former San Francisco Forty-niners coach Bill Walsh adapted his play book to the strengths of his players. By doing this, he got the best performance with the players that he had. Martin Scorsese's directing style in Goodfellas has a similar process. During rehearsals, the actors were allowed to improvise the dialog. Scorsese modified the script with the lines that he though worked best. This approach to leadership produces a coherent link between the plan of a leader and the capabilities of the led.

Vaccine Adjuvant Regulation
a: Trif ~
b: Waiter
What: "Trif is a signal transducer-an adaptor molecule that helps turn these positive detections into immune reactions. Significantly, Trif is the topmost protein shared by the pathway that detects gram-negative bacteria and the pathway that detects most viruses. It is like a waiter who brings orders from two different customers into the same kitchen."

a: promoter ~
b: password protection
What:
"Barr's research involves a mutation in a region of the DNA directly before the CRH gene, called the CRH promoter. In a sense, a gene's promoter is like password protection for the gene. If the cell doesn't use the proper combination of factors to satisfy the password, the instructions in the gene cannot be accessed. Other times, a faulty promoter will allow access to the gene too often. In the current study, the mutation in the promoter for CRH causes the cell to make too much CRF. "

The Cyclical Wate God....
a: religious brother ~
b: surfing
What:
"Having grown up near the beach and having experienced the effervescence of waves and a surfboard, I usually recount how a surfer patiently waits all day for the perfect wave to catch. The few seconds at the top of that wave are intense moments that can make you feel that God has called you and blown that moving body of water especially for you. In that eons-long second, God whispers within the depths of your heart how much he loves you, and you revel in the freedom of that surf reverberating throughout your body and soul. And when you fall off your board and splash into the water, you continue to swim against the tide to retrieve your floating board, to wait for that wave to come back, and then to start over again."
