	abstract = {We give a constructive proof of a theorem of Marshall and Olkin that any real symmetric positive definite matrix can be symmetrically scaled by a positive diagonal matrix to have arbitrary positive row sums. We give a slight extension of the result, showing that given a sign pattern, there is a unique diagonal scaling with that sign pattern, and we give upper and lower bounds on the entries of the scaling matrix.},
