When people are subjected to cyber bullying it usually results in many horrible outcomes. Either the victim begins to believe the bully and feel badly about themselves which could result in suicide or self destructive behavior. Or the victim internalizes the issues and does not retaliate which in return makes the bully feel that this behavior is acceptable and the cycle of abuse continues.

January 16, 2013 - "Deciding by Default: Lessons in Behavioral Economics" Penn Program on Regulation recently held a Risk Regulation Seminar on legal regulation based on behavioral economics led by Harvard Law professor, Cass Sunstein. Professor Sunstein described the issue with defaulting rules in business contracts, such as insurance plans, phone bills, loans, etc. He talked about the impact of impersonal one-size-fits-all rules for defaulting as well as the pros and cons of more personalized plans where customers can select their own rules for defaulting. Sunstein gives this latter option as a potential choice for future consumers in this new age of individuality and personalization. Professor Sunstein is the Felix Frankfurter Professor of Law at Harvard Law School and served as an attorney-advisor in the Office of the Legal Counsel of the U.S. Department of Justice. Sunstein has also been an administrator at the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) in the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). Professor Sunstein also served as the keynote speaker at the second Annual Regulation Dinner for the Penn Program on Regulation.

I am very frustrated to be imprisoned in this extremely boring cage (aggressive yawning).

I've noticed that when 2 coots fight, the coots around them swim away while flashing the two white batches of feathers on their rump. Don't know why yet. It is not breeding season and both genders do this. Not sure if it is a sign of alarm, or appeasement. This is a close up of a coot leaving the scene of a fight while flashing the white.

The elephant trainers are practicing a 'retrieval behavior' with Mabu because it encourages him to use his mind and muscles.

The Behavioral Operations Management Summer Institute for PhD students at the Ross School of Business of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor (BOMSI2019). The lead faculty were Ryan Buell (Harvard Business School), Stephen Leider (Ross School of Business, University of Michigan), and Jordan Tong (Wisconsin School of Business, University of Wisconsin-Madison). From the website, "The inaugural Behavioral Operations Management Summer Institute for PhD students will be held June 10-14, 2019, at the University of Michigan, Ross School of Business in partnership with the Center for Value Chain Innovation. The conference is co-sponsored by the business schools at the University of Michigan, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Support for this event is also being provided by Harvard Business School's Technology and Operations Management Unit. The 1-week intensive summer institute is designed to provide PhD students who are interested in behavioral research a solid foundation to conduct behavioral operations management research. Additionally, we hope that the summer institute will encourage collaboration and the creation of a research community among the next generation of researchers. Each day of the institute will include morning and afternoon sessions. Morning sessions will provide a general overview of BOM, review core behavioral economics/psychology topics, and discuss OM applications. Afternoon sessions will be focused more on small groups, practicums (e.g., applying ideas to actual research activity), and roundtables (more informal discussions). There will also be free time to prepare for the next day, have office hours, pair up to work on ideas, and hang out!" Pictures from the sessions taken over the week.

 

This nudi was swimming in the water column when I came across it. I had never seen that behavior before but had heard about it.

Pictures of the Winter in July event at the Phoenix Zoo. This annual event includes snow trucked in for the event, a chilly 'blizzard' every 30 minutes, and snow themed events with the animals. There were four different animal events that featured behavioral enrichment, a process of ensuring captive animals in zoos are treated for psychological and physiological well-being. I will list all the events separately. I learned on their site that they were looking for volunteers. So I was on their website to learn about the event when I learned that they needed volunteers! So I signed up as a photographer and snow shoveler. I was part of a crew of volunteers who broke up the snow so the kids could play with it. It has a hard ice crust the moment we arrived and had to continually work the snow to make it fun to play with. Very glad to spend the day at the Zoo helping them pull off this event. Here are pictures of the very popular elephant shower that is one of the highlights of this annual event (from what I understand). Reba is an Asian Elephant who is around 45 years old. She is sprayed with the fire hose. When they were done, they showered the audience and my camera bag got soaked! Oh well - all is fine. Thanks to the Phoenix Fire Department for supplying the firehose!
