9.When it comes to making a good career in the business world,being honest and getting along well with colleagues gives a person a solid competitive advantage,claims a new research.Dr.Jon Bohlmann has found that project managers can expect better performance by far from the members of their team if treating them with honesty,kindness,and respect.According to another study,the cross-functional product development teams can achieve a great quality and better cost benefits from socializing and interacting with individuals who work for their suppliers.
The first,Dr.Bohlmann's study analyzed cross-functional product development teams,which combine together engineers,researchers and business personnel.The point to involve people with various backgrounds was to show that there was a focus on finance,marketing and also on a design and functionality,right from the start of the product-development process.In addition to all this,this diversity also helped to make communication more effective in order to ensure that all members of the team were socializing and cooperating,and not just working at cross-purposes.
As a result,it indicated that"interactional fairness awareness"indeed had an effect on a"cross-functional communication".In other words,all the team members who thought that they had been treated well and respected,showed a great increase in their commitment to the success of the project they had been working on in cooperation with other team members,and,in particular,when they realized their project manager or supervisor to be a kind,nice and honest guy.
According to Dr.Bohlmann,the increase in such commitment is very essential and important because it could improve performance that would result in the achievement of team goals.And if Bohlmann's study comes to the conclusion that nice and honest guys are the first to finish,the second research by Dr.Rob Handfield shows us that cooperating and socializing well with others can give a team,and even a company an edge,when it comes to product development.

These (52)A are evident before the visitors leaves his or her country.
In 2004,the U.S.Department of Homeland Security(DHS)--a department of the federal government established by laws and regulations in late 2002,after the September 11,2001,terrorist attacks--established a new series of security (53)D for the international visitors holding non-U.S.passports or visas.
(54)B when these visitors apply for a visa,the officer (55)Cthem reviews their application and supporting papers and collects both digital fingerprints and a digital photograph.
Recently,the waiting time for these interviews has been significantly (56)A.According to Geoff Freeman,a senior vice president of public affairs of U.S.Travel,the trade organization for the U.S.travel industry,many prospective visa applicants now wait fewer than 30days for an interview,(57)Bmore than 100days in the past.
The Visa Waiter Program(VWP)--which (58)Dcitizens from countries that meet various security and other requirements from obtaining a visa for visits to the United States of 90days or fewer for business or pleasure--(59)B 36countries such as Australia,Austria,Belgium and so on.
A traveler from a country (60)C in the VWP must obtain an Electronic System for Travel Authorization(ESTA),an online travel authorization,established by DHS.ESTA determines,before the traveler boards a flight,whether the traveler is (61)Bto travel to the United States under the VWP and whether such travel poses any law implementation or security risks.

(63)C,VWP travelers,who are not required to obtain a visa,will soon need to pay a fee.The travelers keeps a portion of the I-94or I-94W form after the CBP (64)A and returns it to CBP upon departure from the United States.
In 2007 Congress authorized the consumption of 40 million dollars on a"Model Ports of Entry"program,designed to improve the (65)Cprocedures of foreign travelers at the 20 U.S.airports with the highest number of international visitors.The program aims to improve staffing,queue management,signage,and infrastructure at the top 20 U.S.international airports and to hire at least 200 new CBP officers.
