(February 2011). The olfactory system is the sensory system used for olfaction, or the sense of smell. Most mammals and reptiles have two distinct parts to their olfactory system: a main olfactory system and an accessory olfactory system.he olfactory nerve, similar to the optic nerve, is not part of the peripheral nervous system but is defined as a part of the brain. This nerve terminates in the olfactory bulb, which also belongs to the central nervous system.
Associate editors who work for media outlets may head a single department, such as local news or sports. They might also be called upon to write articles, conduct interviews, verify sources and perform independent research.
A major portion of the managing editor's job involves hiring and overseeing associate and assistant editors. He may write a column or editorial sometimes, and is more likely to edit articles on occasion than the editor in chief would be. The managing editor's job takes place primarily in the office -- it is to suggest ideas, assign articles, handle problems, keep the staff on schedule and answer questions from department editors. The managing editor determines the importance of articles and what goes on the front page.
