News Report
Randolph Chemical announced earlier today the selection of Michelle Brown as its new chief executive officer. Willard Strong, Chairman of the Board of Randolph Chemical, said, "We are delighted to have found someone of Michelle's caliber to lead our organization."
Michelle Brown brings to the table a reputation as a strict cost cutter. Prior to joining Randolph, Dr. Brown was CEO of Popovich Materials, where she reduced expenses by almost a third in her four-year tenure. Dr. Brown has a bachelor's degree in chemistry from Wyler College and a Ph.D. in analytical chemistry from Porter University.
Industry analysts remain skeptical that she can turn around the company's ailing fortunes. After her selection was announced, company stock dropped 1.2 percent in one afternoon.
Randolph Chemical is a global technology-based company that manufactures and distributes plastics, chemicals, and agricultural products. Their search, which took eleven months, was conducted with the aid of Darren Consulting.
Memorandum from: Michelle Brown
TO: All Randolph Chemical employees
As you have probably heard, I will be assuming responsibility for leading Randolph Chemical effective Monday morning. I want to take a moment to reaffirm the commitment of Randolph Chemical and of myself as its new head to treating every single employee with the fairness and dignity that he or she deserves.
In the months to come I will be initiating steps to sell off those portions of our business in which we do not have the potential to become industry leaders, leaving us to focus on what we do best. Due to time constraints, we will not be commissioning a new study of all of our holdings. Instead, we will base decisions on current in-house performance figures derived from our ongoing review process.
This is the beginning of a long journey for all of us, one I am proud to say we will make together. I hope to meet as many of you as possible personally, and I urge you to become fully engaged in the process and to contribute your own ideas.
What was the subject of the news release by Randolph Chemical？
A．The selection of a new chief executive officer
B．The announcement of a new chairman of the board
C．The merger of Randolph Chemical and Popovich Materials
D．Recent trends in stock prices for chemical companies
Such weather doesn't seem to fit with warnings from scientists that the Earth is warming because of greenhouse gases. But experts say the cold snap doesn't disprove global warming at all— it's just a blip in the long-term heating trend.
"It's part of natural variability," said Gerald Meehl, a senior scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colo. "With global warming", he said, "we'll still have record cold temperatures. We'll just have fewer of them. "
Deke Arndt of the National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, N. C. , noted that 2009 will rank among the 10 warmest years for Earth since 1880.
Scientists say man-made climate change does have the potential to cause more frequent and more severe weather extremes, such as heat waves, storms, floods, droughts and even cold spells. But experts did not connect the current frigid blast to climate change.
So what is going on？
"We ba ically have seen just a big outbreak of Arctic air" over populated areas of the Northern Hemisphere, Arndt said. "The Arctic air has really turned itself loose on us. "
In the atmosphere, large rivers of air travel roughly west to east around the globe between the Arctic and the tropics. This air flow acts like a fence to keep Arctic air confined.
But recently, this air flow has become bent into a pronounced zigzag pattern, meandering north and south. If you live in a place where it brings air up from the south, you get warm weather. In fact, record highs were reported this week in Washington state and Alaska.
But in the eastern United States, like some other unlucky parts of the globe, Arctic air is swooping down from the north. And that's how you get a temperature of 3 degrees in Beijing, a reading of minus-42 in mainland Norway, and 18 inches of snow in parts of Britain, where a member of Parliament who said the snow "clearly indicates a cooling trend" was jeered by colleagues.
The zigzag pattern arises naturally from time to time, but it is not clear why it's so strong right now, said Michelle L'Heureux, a meteorologist at the Climate Prediction Center of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The center says the pattern should begin to weaken in a week or two.
What is the relationship between the global warming and the cold snap？
Purdy has been a member of the cyber-security division since it was set up in 2003, and was the vice chairman and senior adviser on information technology issues for the President's Critical Infrastructure Protection Board. Purdy declined an interview request. Homeland Security spokeswoman Michelle Petrovich said that "Cyber- security will continue to be a priority of the Department of Homeland Security and we plan to move quickly to fill the position with someone who has demonstrated leadership in this important field. "
Purdy moves into his new role at a time when many cyber-security authorities say the Bush administration has come up short in its commitment to protecting the nation from computer viruses and other electronic attacks. Industry officials and security experts said he is a good fit for the job, but that the position needs more authority in order to make a difference.
"We've worked with Andy for a number of years .... He's a very smart guy and very talented," said Harris Miller, president of the Information Technology Association of America, an Arlington, Va. -based lobbying firm. Nevertheless, Miller said, the job "needs to be elevated".
"Andy is a terribly nice guy and will obviously try to do the best thing, but without authority and without the ability to reach up into the department and to reach out among other federal agencies as a more senior person, it's going to be difficult for him to do the job," said Paul Kurtz, executive director of the Cyber Security Industry Alliance and a former White House computer-security official.
This is a problem that industry executives and former government officials said contributed to Yoran's decision to resign last week. Yoran became director of the cyber- security division in September 2003 after the previous White House adviser, Howard A. Schmidt, resigned in April to become the head of security at online auction company eBay Inc. Schmidt succeeded Richard A. Clarke, who had stepped down three months earlier, warning that the administration needed to take online security more seriously. Yoran, who declined to comment for this story, was in charge of implementing the recommendations in the administration's national cyber-security plan, a document that received criticism from a variety of sources for failing to require the business community to strengthen its online security. He also oversaw the creation of the U.S. Computer Emergency Readiness Team, which coordinates efforts to fight online network attacks.
Nevertheless, the problem with the position is that it is too far down the chain of command from Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge, said Rep. Mac Thornberry who sponsored a House bill to revamp the nation' s intelligence structure and elevate the cyber-security position.
According to the passage, the National Cyber Security Division will be under the leadership of ______.
A．the Cyber Security Industry Alliance
B．the Department of Homeland Security
C．the Information Technology Association
D．the Critical Infrastructure Protection Board
