One of the more farsighted, innovative, and completely modern urban regeneration and renewal policies of the Governor Raji Fashola administration during his first coming in 2007 was not the creation of Local Council Development Areas, LCDAs (which his predecessor, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, did, ostensibly to bring development closer to the grassroots).
Instead, it was the drawing up of a development road map for Lagos State in such a way that some city centres, designated and referred to as 'development hubs,' will service outlying towns and villages in practical existential terms.
It was a fundamental policy initiative that, sustained, has the potential of decongesting the already built-up and developed parts of Lagos state to bring needed goods and support services closer to those living in the outlying rural hinterlands.
It must have been this motivation that compelled the earlier Fashola administration to embark on the refurbishing and construction of many inner city roads as happened in places like Alimosho LGA where roads in the designated 'development hubs' got quality attention.
As with all things human, nothing can stand alone without complementary support from other aspects of life.
For example, a 'development hub' that is not accessible by road, water or air, is as good as grounded. To attract the sort of patronage that businesses, organizations and people will normally expect for them to establish in the 'hubs' and decongest the major city centres, a passably decent transport network must be in place. This, evidently, the Fashola administration has recognized by initiating such schemes as the light rail transport scheme.
But the problem is that the law of nature dictates that one must crawl before they can walk or run.
Take the case of Alimosho council area of the state which is a major component of what constitutes Lagos State and which in terms of population and electoral votes is a major swing area without which no party in Lagos State could win governorship elections, arguably.
There are many 'development hubs' in Alimosho. Some have had their internal roads either refurbished or constructed anew. But all access roads and exits from the enclave are either inadequate, perennially broken down or benignly neglected and unattended to.
From the local government headquarters in Ikotun, residents in the Igando, Lagos State University, LASU, areas and so on have to find their way to Iyana Ejigbo, Isolo, Mushin or Cele Express bus stops.
The hardship that these tax-paying, voting citizens go through daily, on weekdays and weekends as they go about their businesses is better seen than described. Arguably, the Mushin-Isolo-Ejigbo-Ikotun axis of the road is the most impassable stretch in all of Lagos.
In the past decade or so, the road leading from Isolo to either Mushin or Cele-Express that is on the Oshodi-Apapa expressway bus stop has been one devious eye of the needle through which even the most diligent and calculative cannot escape from being trapped. That of course until recently when the Cele Express axis of that road is witnessing a facelift.
The road to Iyana Ejigbo has caused so much havoc on the wealth and general health of residents of Ikotun and environs, to say the least. This situation daily takes its toll on the state's BRT buses as they are seen broken down and lying abandoned along the Iyana Ejigbo stretch of the same road.
The situation further gets worse at nights when the traffic controil agents vacate their posts leaving motorists helpless and commuters hopeless.
This transportation gridlock somehow defeats the aim of government to keep residents in their localities where goods and services are available to them. Residents are not sure of how and when they could get in or out of the enclave, businesses are suffering, potential investors are fleeing in horror and even taxis and other transporters dread to ply that route. Overall, everyone loses, most of all government that could have reaped the benefits of city clusters.
On any given day, residents or those unwary of the dangers that the road poses to motorists, motorcyclists, and even pedestrians, could spend a minimum of three hours just to make it past Iyana Ejigbo, stretch of road barely half a kilometre in length.
Because of the perennial flooding on that portion of the road, numerous construction works have been undertaken to no avail. This is a result of the shoddy work that have so far been done.
Since last year, work is being undertaken by a clearly unprepared construction outfit. A more serious-minded construction company would have completed the work within three months and without putting road users through the serious stress of diversions.
Anyone who has had the misfortune of plying that road will confess that it is the road to hell itself.
As it is today, all that the people of Alimosho pray for is that the laborers who have been given the contract to clear up the mess at Iyana Ejigbo would expedite action, create alternative routes for road users or simply throw in the towel as they have proved incapable of doing the job.
Governments at state and local government levels must urgently come to the aid of Alimosho residents by reading the riot act to the contractors, funding them properly, if funding is the problem or simply canceling and re-awarding the contract if it becomes clear that the present contractors cannot perform optimally.
It would be politically unwise to alienate a sizable percentage of the electorate from who the ruling party gets a major chunk of its votes. This, more so when the perception is rife that the State government is concentrating its urban renewal efforts in the already well developed high-brow areas like Ikeja, Surulere, Victoria Island and Lekki.

.NET Framework
The .NET Framework is a software solution used by developers to create applications for the suite of Windows operating environments which include: Windows, Windows Phone, Windows Server, and Microsoft Azure (cloud platform). The .NET Framework includes tens of thousands of classes, interfaces, and types. It consists of two primary components, the common language runtime (CLR) and the framework class library (FCL) which are discussed below. The common type system (CTS) and common language specification (CLS) are also two additional constituents of .NET and are briefly mentioned here.
Common Language Runtime (CLR)
The .NET CLR provides a runtime environment (or engine) for a variety of .NET-aware languages including C#, VB.NET, C++, and many others. It is referred to as "common" since one engine supports a multitude of languages. There are two compilation phases that C# (or any other managed .NET language) goes through. When we compiled our HelloWorld examples on the Getting Started page, we used the C# compiler (csc.exe). That compiler produces a form of "byte code" known as Microsoft intermediate language (MSIL - pronounced "missile"). MSIL is also referred to as common intermediate language (CIL) or intermediate language (IL). The same (or very similar) byte code is produced by the CLR irrespective of the language.
When a .NET program is run, either from the command line or by double-clicking an icon, the CLR converts the byte code into platform-specific machine language which the CPU can then process. The key library associated with the conversion is mscoree.dll (common object runtime execution engine). The execution engine is a just-in-time (JIT) compiler that translates the MSIL into native (machine) code which is then executed by the CPU. The figure below diagrams this process. Which, by the way, is similar to the process employed by the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) for the Java language.
Framework Class Library (FCL)
The .NET FCL consists of more than 100 namespaces which collectively contain thousands of types (i.e. classes, structures, delegates, enumerations, and interfaces). The FCL provides developers with reusable core system and application services. Instead or reinventing the wheel, a developer can leverage the existing classes within the FCL. Examples of the functionality offered by the FCL include: multi-threading, file I/O, object serialization, security, and database operations. We will apply the FCL to solutions in subsequent chapters.
.NET CTS and CLS
In addition to the CLR and FCL, .NET also includes a common type system (CTS) and common language specification (CLS). The CTS ensures types translate seamlessly across .NET-aware languages. In .NET, a type is defined as any one of the following: classes, structures, delegates, enumerations, and interfaces. The CLS delineates the set of features .NET-aware languages and .NET compilers must support. The CLS specifies usage conventions required for language and compiler efficient and effective operation.
.NET Native
Another aspect of .NET that is worthy of mention is .NET Native. Native is a .NET compiler that translates C# into native machine code thus skipping the MSIL and JIT steps described above. Early tests suggest that some Windows Store apps load up to 60% faster and consume 15-20% less memory when the source code was compiled with the .NET Native compiler. Note that Native is initially only available for Windows Store apps but other platforms will likely be targeted in the future.
.NET and WinRT
Windows Runtime (WinRT) is a new framework first introduced for developing Windows 8 (Metro) applications. The WinRT applications are intended to run on devices with "touch" capabilities such as Windows Phone and the Windows Surface portables. The .NET Framework is still quite relevant since it is, and will be for the foreseeable future, the framework utilized with C# for Windows desktop development.
What's Next?
Now that you have more understanding the .NET workflow, it is probably a good time to go back to the Getting Started chapter and walk through the examples again. Keep in mind that csc.exe produces MSIL and when the HelloWorld programs are run, the execution engine (in mscoree.dll) translates the MSIL into native machine code that the CPU runs. In the next chapter, we consider an overview of C#.

Levels of Admission
Full Standing
Students who have fulfilled all of the admission requirements for a given program, including admission grade point average, entrance exams if required, reference and credentials if required, and have 9 credit hours or less of prerequisites, may be granted admission on a full-standing basis. Students admitted to full standing are eligible for consideration for assistantships and federally-funded financial aid.
Conditional Status
Students who may have background deficiencies in excess of 9 credit hours, but fewer than 16 credit hours, or who have not submitted required references, examinations and so forth, but who otherwise have met the full-standing degree program requirements, may be granted admission on a conditional basis. Students are allowed one semester to submit the remaining credentials, including test scores, and one year to remove background deficiencies. Transfer to an appropriate nondegree category will result if the necessary conditions are not satisfactorily met. Students admitted with conditions are not eligible for federally-funded financial aid, but may be considered for graduate assistantship positions.
Probationary Status
Students who do not meet the minimum academic requirements for full-standing degree program admission may be admitted on probation when reasonable evidence exists to indicate their ability to do satisfactory degree program work. In order to clear the probationary status, students must complete their first 9 credit hours of graded graduate-level coursework at Wichita State University with a minimum 3.000 grade point average. Only courses numbered 500 and above which are letter graded (A, B, C, D, F) can be used toward the 9-credit-hour requirement. S/U, Bg/NBg and Cr/NCr courses will not count toward the 9-credit-hour requirement.
Students who have a graduate history at WSU must also raise their graduate grade point average to a 3.000 or better to be removed from probation.
Students admitted on probation or placed on academic probation following admission are not eligible for federally-funded financial aid.

My lecture for media students
Is PR an Anti-Thesis of Journalism
My lecture for media students
Is PR an Anti-Thesis of Journalism
Hiroshima-Nagasaki were destroyed by atomic bombs yet Japan recovered. The Congress party was practically rooted out of Indian Politics yet it bounced back. Donald Trump was declared the most unlikely and hated candidate yet he became the U.S. President. What makes such successes happen? Is it the destiny or doing what you can? Can we reverse the career disasters we experienced or apparently heading towards?
Karmic Theory of Destiny: Apart from authoring a variety of nonfiction bestsellers, I have also authored many astrology and fortune telling books as well. So, I am pretty aware of this fact that there is no such thing as inevitable destiny. Have you noticed several astrologers and numerologists often suggest their clients to wear gem stones, perform certain rites and even suggest to alter the names of the people, products and places. Why? To alter, affect or avert destined disasters? It means, the destined outcome can be altered, tailored or changed all together.
According to the Karmic Theory of Destiny our future depends on what we did in our past lives and what we do in this life.
In this equation the Prarabdha is your past life karma and the karma is what you do or try to do in this life. Cancelling the past life and this life expressions, we get only Karma, that means our destiny depends only on what we think, try to do and eventually do in our life time. Some ancient discourses argue that since Prarabdha can not be changed hence there is no meaning of what we do because ultimately we get rewards and punishments as per our past life karma.
Ancient Hindu scripture, The Bhagavad Gita (bhagavad-gītā), often referred to as simply the Gita, is basically the only religious work that teaches a lot about how not to be afraid in life. The Gita is available in all the languages throughout the world. Basically it is a part of the Hindu epic Mahabharata (chapters 23–40 of the 6th book). The Gita is 700 Sanskrit verses, in the form of dialogue between Lord Krishna and his friend Arjuna.
Perform & Outperform : Every careerist must get inspiration from the Gita because the Lord Krishna tells, " It's not those who lack energy or refrain from action but only thosewho keep working without expecting any reward, achieve greater and better goals in life. Nothing can harm such people. Not even the destiny." It is obvious from this teaching that the God Almighty only favors constantly working people. Further Lord Krishna elaborates, " Do everything you have to do, but not with greed, not with ego, not with lust, not with envy but with love, compassion and devotion to what you see as the purpose of your life. And you will find that your failures will become your strengths and make you invincible." Here it's taught that one who improves his working by learning from the failures, eventually attains better victories and never fails again.
The Power of Karma: Lord Krishna explains how Karma yoga, i.e. performance of prescribed duties, but without attachment to results, is the appropriate course of action. In the next chapter he reveals that the knowledge has no Religion. He elaborates further that the one and only God favors those, who keep performing their duties and their is nothing better than doing your duties only. Anybody may improve ones life by doing what is best to do in given circumstances without finding an excuse to forgo action, because doing what you may do is superior, because it may even alter your destiny. The Gita may inspire any struggling job seeker. It teaches us that the virtue of our actions is incredibly faster and it really works three times faster. The Karma or doing your best is very important because the God really protects his children who have faith in him and has surrendered to him. This surrender is not at all doing nothing but in fact it's doing what best you may contribute towards your life struggle. Lastly the Gita says, " When you keep performing your duties sincerity and forget what might be the outcome of your good actions, then the almighty takes command and gives you the best."
So, if you think your career is drowning and you don't see any help around, instead of cursing the bad luck you must try harder and in a better manner to get help. Your such endeavors will keep you not only alive but also help you reversing your career destiny.
Reversing Career Disasters : Like Dietetics and the Cancers, I think the Career Disasters are also of several types.
The Zero Stage: The zero stage of a career disaster is being jobless. You have the desire and some qualification also but no career. You waiting a lot. Tried a lot. Applied a lot. Yet no job.
The Impending Doom : The first stage career disaster is that you have a job but things are rapidly becoming out of hand at the works place and either you feel like quitting it or being kicked out soon.
The Career Rot : This is a more serious thing. You feel ignored and sidelined at the work place and feel like being forced to either quit or suffer more humiliation. This will require better efforts and re-engineering your career options.
The Expired Career : You served your tenure and now leading a retired life. Still want to do a lot but no options coming your way. Your career is seemingly dead, despite your capabilities, experience and potential.
For all the situations mentioned above, there are some established strategies to re engineer career disasters.
Strategies of Reversing Career Disasters :
Reversing Career Disasters is actually learning the steps to achieving your career priorities in a given situation. You must clearly know that which stage of career disaster you are suffering? After this assessment try to apply the success principles to the given situation.
Find Yourself : The first remedy is to decide what you want to do? Remember, its NOT what you want to become, what you should be, what salary you should get and what your employer should do for you. It's just what you want to do? What is your specialization? What best you may do? What you may do easily? What purpose you have in life? If you value freedom, purpose or power or than doing anything, then you should first correct your thinking. Nobody will give you any job to help you realize your fantasies. Better write down who you want to become and follow that exercise up with the skills you'll need to learn in order to be that person. You will easily be something in sometime when you start (remember Karma here) being it. Its not easy but finding your past mistakes and without getting frustrated just eliminate those faults without ever repeating them. This small change will eventually accelerate your career progress. Throughout life keep this improvement system working- Trying, Failing, Re-Organizing, Removing Faults, and Repeating what you learned!
Big Failures lead to Big Success: Throughout the history of mankind and the civilizations we find a lot of hugely successful people in life who failed multiple times but became successful because they never gave up. They faced the problems without fear and ultimately they won.
Like I already referred the Gita above, the Life is only hard work & patience. The greatest scientist of all times Albert Einstein failed 104 times, before he was noticed. The world famous Walt Disney failed 302 times before pioneering his legendary cartoon characters and the Disneyland. The Harry Potter series author JK Rowling failed 12 times but never gave up. She finally decided to focus on writing and became a multi-billionaire authoring legend. Facebook founder Mark Elliot Zuckerberg was initially an average American computer programmer and Internet entrepreneur and failed 11 times before establishing his globally social networking website.
Similarly India's corporate giant, Dhiru Bhai Ambani was also an ordinary man and worked on daily wages earlier as a teenager. When he started his first cotton trading business, he was hardly able to dream of a bigger plan. Despite suffering several conspiracies, he never ever gave up and established on of the all time biggest business empire in India. His sons also duplicated his success and made his the Reliance Group of companies into a business dinosaur. Likewise the father of Indian industrial revolution JRD Tata, Steel King Lakshmi Mittal, Kumar Mangalam Birla, an incredibly successful Chairman of Aditya Birla Group, Sunil Bharti Mittal, the world famous Indian telecom mogul, Ronnie Screwvala the founder chairman of UTV Group, Dr Ashok Chauhan the founder Chairman of AMITY Group of Universities and institutions and Gautam Adani, the Chairman of Adani Group, all of these turned rags into riches. In every field we find that those who made a mark in life, did actually failed many a times before getting any big success.
So whenever you see a red signal and start seeing danger ahead, immediately pay attention and gather all your guts and gears, try to control the situation the best way. Don't shy taking help from others. Stay calm. Get focused and try to find a solution. If you screwed up, don't make excuses, instead just sincerely apologize for any misstep, miscommunication or oversight on your part. Don't let a small mistake linger and turn into a bigger one. If you know you did something wrong, deal with it right away. In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.
Plan Your Moves: If you want to succeed then you must first of all you must know what job skills are in demand and paying. If you don't have them, manage your free time and acquire some of the in-demand skills taking part time courses. Never get disheartened by finding that you don't possess eve 50% of the required skills. Jut make a mental note, what is easy to learn and how? Find an online course, book, or inquire at your nearest college to attain more education, skill or expertise.
The freshers should do research and find out what exactly they are able to do without any experience? They should read a lot online and try to ask help from their working seniors. Remember such networking invariably helps in education, career and job hunting. When I was studying in University, I made it my routine to everyday visit the library, canteen and staff room to meet and greet my colleagues, seniors and teachers. It helped me a lot. Without asking for help I got all sorts of assistance.
The truth is, we all face difficult situations at work but not everyone knows how to handle them. Often people let mistakes and crises cripple — even paralyze — them, but bouncing back from roadblocks in your career is not as daunting as you might think. I really believe that every crisis is an opportunity; most errors are reversible, so it's important to remember that how you try to bounce back out of career disasters. In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing. So, keep doing right things it will never fail you. Never ever over analyze an error, reliving the mistake over and over. It's important to step back and take a overview of the situation and its long-term effects. After evaluating the scenario, consult some good professional and take a stand.
Never forget everyone loves to hear comeback, survival and revival stories. Be one. Nearly every successful person has failed at something before making it big. What you learn from failure helps you identify new ways of doing things and allows you to grow and become a better manager and leader.
Futher readings
The academic world all over the globe has started exploiting newer PR strategies to harvest incredibly astonishing dividends.
Earlier academicians used old press release based communication models which are rapidly being obsolete. Even established academic institutions have started creating very different management-PR synergies that suit their immediate admissions, placements and the other requirements.
I was sitting at my huge Kumbh Mela Public Relations Office Camp after midnight of an icy cold January winter of 2010, the crowd was still coming to the Ganges city of Haridwar. It was a tent made up of a canvass cloth incapable of stopping chilly winter air pouring through it and although the sand below my feet was covered by one layer of some grass & husk and another layer of a mattress yet oozing out cold radiation. Suddenly lifting up the thick entrance curtain of my camp a group of five people stepped inside my office, two of them having massive cameras hanging from their shoulders. "I am Miguel, from Spain. He is Dmitri, She Yelena both from Russia, this is Mark, Australia and he is Gustavo from the US." One of them introduced the accompanying team.
They all sat and showed me their documents. Since none of them were having a J-Visa or any clearance from the PIB, Government of India, hence it was clear that they would not get any permission to stay at the Media Center accommodations. As soon as I made it clear, the group started leaving my room, expressing their feelings to unnecessarily disturbing me. Minutes after they left my tent, someone again lifted up the door entrance. It was one of them, Miguel from Spain. "Sorry to bother you again Sir, but may I see you little later in the morning? He asked. "Why not. Pleasure!" I replied. He noted down my mobile number and left again.
Next morning he called me and visited me again around 11 am. Seemed he bathed recently, with water droplets still around his forehead, "Hi, Miguel again, from Spain!" and burst into laughter, "Wow, I made a rhyming introduction."
I was wondering why this man is hanging around, when I am not going to support because of him not carrying the authorization papers. But he was very clear. "Sir, you are a public relations person, I wish I could ask you a few questions about the PR because in our country hardly any professional attends anyone without charging him fees. I am just starting my career as an Architect but I have a lot of interest in the PR. So I wish to know, what do you think of a possibility of pursuing such a combination like PR and the Architecture?
If you don't know much about the Indians then it would definitely surprise you that invariably most of our countrymen are highly sentimental. We value relations and try to reciprocate the love we get. Hence, I almost instantly decided to talk to that young man. But explaining about the role of PR in Architecture was not an easy topic. I myself never heard much about it. So I adopted a standard trick we often use delivering extempore & impromptu speeches. Step by step thinking and delivering our points. I am sharing my views on this great subject for the benefit of other such people who might be wondering if they could make a career in the Public Relations elsewhere.
Basically, Architect is a very costly and standard profession in which the experts combine various elements like Engineering, Arts and Aesthetics. They use their designing capabilities to evolve a great building. If you look at a great and unusually attractive building or structural marvel you may even call a lively and permanent advertisement. Isn't it? You need not to spend much on hoardings, bill boards and media advertising to make propaganda about yourselves but is it sufficient? What if someone hasn't seen your building? And how you are going to be benefited if people just see a building and pass by it? Will they stop and ask the neighbors, where is the house owner? I wish to ask him about this design and the architect.
I continued that developing new buildings, improving landscapes and re-designing community living may be of a huge interest, but until publicized properly, they never ever return you any favors, like in the case of a successful lawyer, who wins a sensational trial yet fail to get the mileage, until he or she don't manage a media coverage of his success.
Handling the PR for architects is a sort of unexplored area. It's an ocean of unfathomed opportunities. Just imagine how much money this field might be having, having you knowing already how much money today the world of infrastructure development has. On the other hand, it's a bitter fact that the architects rarely get the credit they deserve for their outstanding contribution which fetch hundreds of crores of rupees. Have you have read any headlines that another great township designed by the great architect Mr or Ms XYZ is coming up with these specifications? Almost every new building gets some media attention as news and hence it should be used as an opportunity for the architect to attain specific recognition and positive profile. Yet, what happens? Everyone, even if they hardly contributed in the project, get the exposure except the architect, they get the newspaper mentions and and a strong share of their voice in the media. Considering this scenario, the public relations for the architect becomes more important.
I saw him clapping and having a glitter in his eyes. In between he was taking notes also. Noticing it I asked him to answer a simple question : tell me Miguel, how many PR and Publicity Opportunities, the Architect might create for themselves? Almost instantly he replied innocently, "Well, I don't know so far." Even I didn't have the idea. I actually wanted to gain some more time to think about. Yes, these opportunities are many like: breaking news about an upcoming project that will change the landscape of the area forever.
The media people are always hungry for such items which no one has. Since all the projects that come up, already have the authorizations and clearances so there is no harm in publicizing them. The developer also gets happy when something positive comes in media. After such breaking news, the other media person may be approached exclusively that this project will affect their viewers in these many ways. They might be interested to know about the various stages of the development. Even the occasion of getting the approval of the project is a media opportunity. Starting the construction is also news.
Due to technological advances all the developers are taking some or the other specific measures to remain exclusive or to ensure quality, which may also be transformed into news again. When your site approaches completion and when it's finally launched, you must ensure that you harvest your own share of publicity, reputation and image. Alternatively an architect may get other opportunities as well like obtaining a space in the sector specific publications and news media. He or she may send request letters with a brief resume to the print, broadcast and internet media houses, volunteering availability, if ever they require any expert on any project related discussion or quote.
On the other hand you may try approaching various other organizations, who recognize innovations and experts, provided you have introduced some unique feature such as earthquake resistance, lonely senior citizens' protection, burglar alarms, protection for the toddlers & kids, energy and environmental efficiency. Like all other professions you must also exploit the potential social media platforms have.
You should never fail to participate in the community meetings organized by your area authorities, because such meetings easily get published in the media and they mention the names of the participating experts. It's like hammering the society and blowing your own trumpet that you are there. Such PR gimmicks maintain you in demands and get you good flow of clients. The architects should also make use of their own websites to showcase their talents. You may express your views on various social issues on your Facebook and Twitter.
And why not write a blog about some of your projects? There are plenty of free blog sites. Remember your blog must add value, rather than merely being blowing your owntrumpet. It should provide the potential clients and fraternity some fresh and authoritative ideas, separating you from the ordinary practitioners. Do log-in something on a regular basis, which will significantly boost your own search engine rankings as well as demonstrating thought leadership in the field, acting as a powerful tool for real-time discussions and can be influential in building long-term relationships with customers.
No architect should forget that his routine behavior also gets him ample opportunities of publicity and public relations. Even if you reject some client due to fee related constraints or because of any other reason, you must give them some free advice on who they should approach, what they should do, how they may cut their expenses and lastly you may refer them to some of your colleagues who charge less fee. Please never ever mention that they are more competent or even equally competent, compared to you. Just say that these architects are also good and charge less. And please never forget to mention that you are not endorsing their ethics, style and other traits; still better if some of your assistant may handover a list of other fellow architects without endorsing anything. The architects must not forget that their staff and dependents also are their image, reputation & brand value careers. So apart from planning and delivering great projects, do find some quality time for them as well.

"We always take training for granted or even just to get certificates to decorate our CV''
We asked Winfred whom we call Winnie to share her inspiring experience with us.......
"I would like to share the experience not to become famous but to emphasise the importance of training and earning the vital skills especially when looking to work or already working with vulnerable individuals who depend on support workers to manage their day to day activities as well as their well being.
During one of my shifts I was doing a core shift and the Sunday roast was ready at the start of shift and I worked together with permanent staff to prepare the rest of the meal and serving.
The client in question had gone out and returned just before dinner, she appeared to be very hungry ... she was served her meal which was cut up into very tiny pieces and permanent staff sat with her as she ate , I believe she ate too fast and did not chew her food well enough.
At first instance I heard the client coughing in a strange manner , permanent staff tried patting her back but the client was struggling to breathe, the permanent staff called out for help , that's when I came in tried back blows, that didn't work, I then gave two(2) abdominal thrusts. The food came out , the client was happy , she then ate all her food.
The incident was reported and recorded.
I have found CPR training as well as Moving and handling very beneficial and I have learned how to perform first aid for choking at CPR training that was a part Parkwood's recruitment process''. Winfred, HCA

Boy George Tribute Act – Daniel Winters performs an outstanding show to one of the 1980s most iconic characters.
Boy George led Culture Club into the charts in 1982 with the classic 'Do You Really Want To Hurt Me?' A song that is still as recognisable today.
This was the start of the Boy George dominance of the 80s with outstanding hit songs and outlandish dress sense.
Daniel has perfected this impersonation down to the last detail. The vocal likeness, the style, the costumes are uncannily close making this probably the best Boy George Tribute Act in the UK today.
Don't just take our word for it, have a look at the video below.

This was really a very special day. Firstly because my best friend of more than a decade was getting married and secondly it happened to be my birthday! I couldn't ask for anything more! I mean I was so excited to share here wedding day with my birthday! It was a double celebration day.
The Best Friend's Engagement.
This is the next edition to our "Indian Wedding" series – The Engagement.
For the engagement ceremony, we tried to experiment with our look a bit. Mixing a western element with our Indian traditional attire, which I really love to do. And the mixture always comes out to be something unusual and great.

During superstorm Sandy, Newark, N.J., Mayor Cory Booker responded to a Twitter follower who complained that he was running low on Hot Pockets with "I believe in you. I know this is a problem you can handle."
The popular and hands-on politician might need similar encouragement from his followers while living on food stamps — a plan he announced yesterday on the social networking site in response to a critic who doubted that there were any families "too poor" to afford breakfast, and criticized Booker's support of school meal programs.
"[Let's] you and I try to live on food stamps in New Jersey (high cost of living) and feed a family for a week or month," the mayor wrote. "U game?"
The user, "TwitWit," replied, "Sure, Mayor, I'm game."
"Great. Let's do this," Booker wrote. "I hope you live in New Jersey. Let's film it and see how we do."
Booker added that they would have to get a referee.
Read the full exchange here.
The mayor's office told The Root that the food stamp challenge will in fact take place over a week, not a month.
Other mayors who have tried similar experiments include Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman, Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter and Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton. Booker himself once launched a 10-day hunger strike and lived in a tent in front of Newark's worst housing project in protest against the city government's apparent negligence. Many would argue that his commitment to highlighting economic inequality, even more than the time he rescued a neighbor from a burning home, is what makes this politician a hero.

In this video a guy gets carried up onĀa updraft while kite surfing. He's in the air for about thirty eight seconds or some before coming back down. He moves in over land up to about two hundred feet or so before coming back down and crashing into the dirt.
In this video out at this big dune buggy event there is a really high sandy hill that the duners race up and down. So this white dune buggy track picks up some speed and drives up the hill trying to make it all the way to the top without falling back down. He almost makes it (maybe ten feet from the top) before his buggy tips over on it's side into the sand. This is there gravity takes over and tips the dune buggy back on it's wheels and the guy drives it back down the hill without crashing. In an alternate universe the buggy would have started running down the hill end over and end and probably exploded.
Watch the video of the dune buggy almost making it below or click over and view it on the host site.
Here is a video of someone who setup a domino topple using books and the physics engine in Oblivion. In case you live under a rock Oblivion is a sandboxy video game which came out recently. The books are all in a row like they were dominos and the guy kicks it off by tipping the first one over. It does have some interesting twists thrown into it like swords that tip over and cut through rope knocking over watermelons which fall on more books and continue the effect. It also seems to have Rube Goldbergish machines built into it including a wiffle ball rolling down stairs, people crashing through stacks of barrels, and a mace and chain swinging to bridge some gaps.
Watch the full video of the Oblivion domino Rube Goldberg machine below or click over and view it on the host site.
I have no idea if this video is from Russia or not but it sounds good. Anyway this video is pretty slow except for the two or three seconds where the ice sculpture turns into so many ice cubes. A guy with a chain saw walks around cutting the supports out from under the ice sculpture until he cuts the last one and it comes crashing down. Another guy follows him and throws the cut supports out of the way though I am not sure why. It isn't vandalism as there seems to be a crowd (re: camera flashs) watching the guy bring it down. I assume they were either done with the ice sculpture or they wanted to make room for a new one.
Check out the full video of this ice sculpture turning into ice cubes below or click over and view it on the host site.
These two German guys were out test flying this RC helicopter in a field somewhere. The helicopter pilot guy is doing all kinds of air acrobatics like flying the copter upside down, backwards, etc. It looks like he brings it in and is about to land it but he could also have been trying to do another trick. In any event the copter was to close to the ground and it flipped over and slammed down blades first into the grass. At this point the blade keeps spinning and the copter is flopping all over the place (there is no off switch on the controller?). The pilot guy runs out to grab turn it off but the camera guy warns him off (good thing too or he might be missing a hand now). The copter keeps flipping out until I guess the engine burned out or some such at which point they can get close enough and shut the engine off.
Watch the full video below of the RC copter crashing and flipping out all or click over and view it on the host site.
UpĀfor today we have aĀChristmas themed video (well not really) of aĀred rally car that comes into view overĀa hill andĀslides out of control. Red cars are Christmasy right? Anyway, it slips off the far side of the road and the back wheels of the car slam into a dirt berm. Needless to say this causes the whole car to fly up in the air and flip end over end before crashing back down and rolling over one last time. The video ends there and there is no additional information regarding if anyone was injured in the car accident or not. Still it can give you a pretty good idea of what happens in a car accident and just how fast it happens.

So in this Nike commercial there is a team of soccer players (oh excuse me futball)Āin a police SWAT van. They drive up to a building and the head guy shows them the "target" which is a soccer ball. They invade the building James Bond style and attempt to steal the ball from a laser entrapped safe room. Suffice to say they screw up and the alarm goes off. A giant throng of ninja looking guys wearing fencing masks chases after them attempting to get the soccer ball back. The soccer hero James Bond guys finally get cornered by the head ninja guy in red. They bounce the ball off the ninja guy crashing into into the elevator while they escape Matrix style in a helicopter. Just as they jump away the ninja guy turns into a robot and the building explodes. Except that only two soccer guys escape. What happened to the rest? Like I said this commercial is pretty weird and doesn't incentivize me to buy Nike.
Watch the ninja soccer James Bond hero police SWAT team attack commerical below or click over to view it on theĀhost site.
There is a Dodge Viper and a Corvette revving up at the starting line of a drag strip. Both cars have pretty big air scoops on them as well. They take off from the line and about 50 feet down the track the Corvette loses it. The Viper keeps on going but something breaks or causes the Corvette to close control. The Corvette slams into the wall and explodes over it in a giant cloud of dust and flying metal. The rescue crews get to the wrecked car pretty quickly and it doesn't explode in a giant fireball. As far as I can tell the driver is still alive (some of the rescue guys seem to talk to him).
Check out the full video of this Corvette crashing in a big way on the dragster track below or click over and view it on the original site.
In what appears to be a clip from a truck commercial this video has some guys camping out in the desert when the unexpected happens. Someone is driving into camp in a truck when a meteor trails out of the sky and slams into the ground inĀfront of the truck. There is a giant explosion (but not a big enough one for how big the meteor was). The camera guy gets knocked back and when he finally gets up the truck drives through the dust and smoke. It's fine. The video pretty much ends there but as you can see it is some kind of truck commercial. Ford, is that you?
Take a look at the meteor video below or click on over and view it on their website.
And here I was convinced that cars couldn't fly where this video appears to prove me wrong. Now we've posted a similar video to this one before but this is not the same video. In the previous video the F1 car caught air, flew up, and came crashing down in the middle of the track. Not so with this new video of a F1 Mercedes which has a similar car accident. In this video the car catchs and updraft of air under it and proceeds to make multiple flips in mid air while moving off into the trees to the side of the track. When it crashs down in the middle of the trees there is a giant plume of earth that shoots up. Nice Mercedes.
Check out the full view of the flying Mercedes F1 over at their website or view it below.

[From IMDb:] A woman receives an eye transplant that allows her to see into the supernatural world.
My take:
Have you ever wished an actor was better at, y'know…acting? Because I wish Jessica Alba was a better actor. Not because I dislike her, or anything along those lines – quite the opposite, in fact! I was quite the fan of Dark Angel, and have had a bit of a soft spot for her since then – almost in spite of things like her involvement in the Fantastic Four movies, or any of the other movies she's been in that could be described, at best, as mediocre*.
Like The Eye.
This isn't all Jessica Alba's fault though, of course. American remakes of foreign horror movies have a certain history of meeeehness (with occasional exceptions, of course). The Eye could be considered a traditionalist, in this respect.
And, to be fair, I actually don't mind the drama aspects of The Eye. I think I actually would have gone out of my way to watch a movie with Jessica Alba having heartfelt moments with Parker Posey and Chloe Moretz. Hell, even if you threw in Alessandro Nivola as another awkward Doctor (psychologist?). I could live with this, because those moments work quite well.
It's the horror aspects of this movie that're the problem. And, the best way I can think of to describe my issue with them is that they feel a bit too…Hallmark Channel?
You know how movies on the Hallmark Channel have that easily recognisable inauthenticity to them? It's kind of like how soap operas have a particular tone to them, where everything is just a bit over-exaggerated, except that Hallmark movies are over the top and schmaltzy. I'm not going to say it's impossible to make that kind of tone work in a horror movie, but it certainly needs to be handled in a particular kind of way if it's going to be done right (Reefer Madness, anyone?).
The scene in the Chinese restaurant is almost cool, though. So, points for trying, I guess?
* Actually, the same goes for Parker Posey, now that I think about it; although I think she's a better actor than Jessica Alba

Dave's 3-Word Review:
Michael Shannon's crazy.
Who doesn't like a good ol' fashioned film where they make you wonder if you're completely bonkers and losing your mind? Otherwise known as psychological thrillers, these movies fascinate and inspire the brain – and work it all night making you think about things you wouldn't normally think about. Take Shelter is a film that does a remarkable job at keeping things fresh and imaginative – and it never once sinks into the unfortunate demise of predictability…it is quite simply – fascinating.
Alrighty, so Take Shelter is about a chap named Curtis, played by Michael Shannon, who keeps having these premonitions of sorts that seem to hint towards a horrible storm that'll change everything. These dreams and hallucinations drive him mad and give him night terrors that he cannot handle, so he begins seeing a therapist while he takes comfort in the storm cellar he keeps in the backyard. As the delusions continue, the more he expands on the storm cellar – using money he didn't have and risking everything because even though he thinks he might be crazy – there's still that slight probability that all this could be true.
So I'm going to address the elephant in the room. The plot and concept of this film is very reminiscent to another very popular story that we've all heard before – Noah's Ark. In fact, a lot of what they were trying to do in Noah was the same things they were attempting to do in this film as well. Basically – this could all be a sign from God, but instead of literally hearing his voice – what are you more likely to get? Visions that would make you look crazy. Now, there is no mention of God in this film whatsoever – but anyone watching it could probably make the distinction between the two stories. So I wouldn't necessarily call it a completely original movie, but the direction it took did take a lot of creative thought…so there's that.
I also want to point out that I haven't previously heard of this film, but I am familiar with its cast. Michael Shannon really shines in the film as the man who does a phenomenal job at confusing his audience. Is he crazy or is he some kind of prophet that just appears crazy? The transformation his character takes is done really well, and the reactions given by his wife (Jessica Chastain) and daughter (Tova Stewart) are both equally as impressive. But the reason why I never heard of it before probably had to do more with promotion.
This wasn't a highly-promoted flick. It had a relatively low budget and it gives off an independent vibe – and independent movies don't get a lot of focus. However, most of that vibe just had to do with visuals – which weren't always impressive. The special effects themselves weren't so bad, but I felt as if the basic post-processing things like color correction were basically ignored. For those of you that know things about photography, the white balance more or less seemed like auto-white balance. Seems like nothing, but movies normally don't do that for a reason…it's just one of the unspoken rules in a movie that make it feel like a movie – generally speaking. I wasn't pulled into the film as much as I probably would have been if they did everything right…take that as you will.
The Good:
Take Shelter is a really good psychological thriller that does a great job at showing man's inner struggles with self – and how hard it is to tell your loved ones something you consider important, because it's embarrassing or sounds crazy and unlike yourself.
The Bad:
This really isn't a bad movie and there isn't a lot of bad to report other than technical problems with how the movie looked and felt after post-processing was finished. I didn't think it felt as much like a movie as it should have…and that's a shame.

CFPB & Real Estate Pros
We care about your client's closing just as much as you do.
Our diverse staff members have backgrounds as builders, real estate agents, loan originators, and of course, home buyers and sellers themselves. And now, they have thorough training in CFPB interpretation. Our goal is to ensure that closings in the new rule era are as smooth, predictable, and timely as they were before, so we've made sure to take extra steps in preparation for the TRID changes coming our way.
Take for example our Lender Roundtable, below, in which we gathered some of the region's leading financial experts for an informed discussion on CFPB interpretation, and the increased level of collaboration that will be required of lenders, realtors, and title companies in the future.
CFPB Lender Roundtable
CFPB/TRID Era
October 3, 2015: on that date an entire new array of federal residential lending regulations developed by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau take effect. The point of all of this oversight is to protect consumers in the financial marketplace. The CFPB's way of protecting consumers is by ensuring that they have enough time to understand the information surrounding their closing transaction. It is hoped that this extra time and understanding will safeguard them from unfair and deceptive trade practices.
Things get interesting in the fines: violation of these new regulations will result in fines of up to $1,000,000.00 per day. Because the CFPB maintains jurisdiction over lender compliance, the regulations place the liability for violation of these new regulations upon the lender. These regulations are a major change for lenders and are causing a great deal of consternation in the entire real estate industry as we all work to meet these very strict requirements.
Luckily for buyers and sellers, realtors, and financial professionals, Commerce Title is prepared to deal with these changes. Our attorneys and support staff have undergone training to ensure a smooth transition after the new rules go into affect. In fact, Attorney Niki Beeson has taught and written extensively on the new rules and is available to assist if you have any questions.
In the meanwhile, check out some of the helpful resources we've developed for CFPB/TRID rules.

Proposal Title: Oh Say Can We See...The Crane Project, 11/20/2008, Installation
Proposal Synopsis: Origami cranes have long been symbols of long life, and after the story of Sadako became known broadly, they emerged as a symbol of peace in the last half of the 20th century. I am making a crane out of polymer clay to represent the lost life of each American soldier, with the soldier's name, date they died, and where and how they died on the wings....the story of their loss. In addition I am making cranes out of vellum to represent the coalition forces, out of articles about the war to represent the journalists killed in Iraq, and finally, out of waxed paper (with the help of others), to represent the Iraqi citizens.
Too often a memorial will look at only one segment of lives lost. I want people to see, in one space, all the lives needlessly lost in this war. Every life is worth counting and representing, no matter what the viewers nationality might be.
The cranes are being hung on strands, either by week, when known, as for the US soldiers, or simply by number, 100 per strand, for the Iraqi citizens.
Artist's Biography: Judy is a self-taught craft artist working primarily in the medium of polymer clay. She has carved a small niche for herself in the art of folding polymer clay into origami forms. She has also won numerous awards for her jewelry and other work in her medium.

Dietetic Career Spotlight on Amy Gorin, of Amy Gorin Nutrition
By SARAH KOSZYK, MA RDN on MAY 10, 2017
Meet Amy Gorin, MS, RDN, an entrepreneur on fire. Amy is a huge inspiration in my life and the lives of many dietetic professionals. She is on a mission to empower our industry by boosting the presence of nutrition professionals in the media. She makes six figures, and she specializes in educating other nutrition professionals on how to get their name in the news and thus increase their earning potential to six figures, too. Knowledge is power, and Amy has the information for you. Read on to learn about her exciting career and how you can have it, too. – Sarah
What attracted you to the field of nutrition and dietetics?
I've always loved to cook—some of my favorite childhood memories are of when when my mom would let me loose in the kitchen, and I'd combine everything in the fridge and pantry to make the most "creative" (not super tasty!) brownies. With trial and error, I became skilled in the kitchen! My "aha" moment came when I was working as an assistant in the nutrition department at Prevention magazine. I spoke on the phone with a scientist for over an hour about EPA and DHA, and he explained all the details of these omega-3s to me. I got off the phone thinking that I wanted to understand all of that info in two minutes, not two hours! So I started looking into pursuing my RDN credentials through night classes. It took about six years of part-time school, while working full-time, and then the dietetic internship, but I did it!

Describe a typical (or not so typical) day-in-the-work-life for you?
There is no typical day, and I love that about my job! Typically every week, I'm working on recipe development projects for my blog and/or for brand clients. I write between two and five articles a week for my nutrition-focused WeightWatchers.com blog and for websites and magazines, including FoxNews.com, Shape.com, FoodNetwork.com, Parade, Dr. Oz the Good Life, Runner's World, and many more! I also regularly answer questions for interviews with media outlets like Self.com, WomensHealthMag.com, ReadersDigest.com, and more. And then of course there are some patients in the mix, as well as my media coaching clients. I work with other dietitians and health professionals to help them get published and be more present in the media. I've also been spending a lot of time lately getting my passion project up and running. It's a self-guided Master the Media e-course of over 30 videos and cheat sheets that I launched with fellow dietitian Erin Palinski-Wade. We share all the trade secrets we've learned about landing the freelance article, getting interviewed for print, online, and broadcast outlets, and leveraging social media and other platforms to boost your business and bottom line. We'll be offering free webinars (you can sign up here!) on this topic periodically throughout the year, and the next one is scheduled for early June 2017.
How did you get your current job in dietetics?
I made it myself! When I became an RDN, I thought, "I'll give this entrepreneur thing a try. And if I don't like it, I'll go interview for jobs." Well, I never looked back. I love the freedom of having that perfect mix of all the different nutrition-related things that I love doing—and I never, ever get bored. A big part of what I do is writing nutrition articles for web and print outlets. My first career was as a nutrition and health editor for magazines and websites. I worked at Prevention, Parents, American Baby (now Fit Pregnancy and Baby), Health, Weight Watchers Magazine, and WeightWatchers.com. So I leveraged that experience into a freelance writing career, while at the same time building my private practice, media coaching business, and other aspects of my business.
What skills were you born with and what skills have you learned along the way?
Good question! Both of my grandfathers were entrepreneurs. My maternal grandfather owned a supermarket, and my paternal grandfather owned a hardware store. My parents always say I was born with the entrepreneurial gene. I've always loved following my passions and creating and meeting goals. When I was little, my sister and I used to create little story books that we'd sell from our sidewalk for a dime. So I always had a business hat on to some degree. I also feel like there's a lot of creativity in my job—you know, creating recipes, staging them, and photographing them, and of course creating new business endeavors—and I spent my childhood and my college years painting and creating art. So I love that my current job is a mix of all those skills. As for skills I've learned along the way, there are so many! I feel like in my first year as a business owner, I earned a degree in entrepreneurship. I learned a ton about social media and how to leverage that to grow my business. And I have really learned a lot about the importance of networking and relationships. When I started my business, I was worried about feeling alone, since I mostly work from my home office. But I've met some really amazing RDNs along the way and talk to many of them on a daily basis. These woman are my tribe, and it's so important to have one. We bounce business ideas off of each other and are sounding boards to help each other grow and flourish.
What advice do you have for others wanting to be just as successful and fulfilled as you?
A friend and colleague recently shared the quote, "behind every successful woman is a tribe of other successful women who have her back." This saying really rings true for me. I've met some amazing RDNs, mostly through networking! So I would definitely say to go to as many networking events and conferences as you can, because you never know whom you'll meet. And form a mastermind group of a few of those trusted colleagues so that you can formally be sounding boards for each other. Also, delegate if it will help you be sane! There was one point when I was working 10- and 12-hour days and many weekends, and then I had the light bulb moment of hiring an intern and paying for some social media schedulers. Sure, these are expenses, but the help is a lifesaver in how much time I get back for work-life balance.
If you could be paid for your job with something other than a paycheck, what
would it be?
A long stay at a villa in Tuscany!

If you're a go-getter you have probably heard and read about all the steps you have to take in order to achieve your goals. But let us be honest, sometimes it feels like all your effort and dedication don't seem to pay off, especially when it comes to long-term goals such as a career. We can work hard towards our goals, but we can't avoid rejection.
Rejection is something we face multiple times throughout our lives, but it can affect us badly everytime it strikes. I don't think I'm only speaking for myself if I say that rejection can make one feel insecure about one's capability. Questions like: "Why am I not capable enough?", "What did I do wrong?", "Will I ever be enough?" are quick to pop in our minds. Don't get me wrong.. I think that self-reflection is very important in order to grow as a person. But most of the time rejection is connected to circumstances which are beyond our control.
I think that rejection is one of the thoughest hurdles that is completely beyond our control, but affects us so immensely. That's why I want to share the following analogy that Tamera Mowry-Housley (Sister, Siter co-star) quoted about rejection she has faced throughout her career:
"If you take a really nice chair and put it in another home, it may not fit. But that doesn't mean it's not beautiful or a great chair. It just doesn't fit in that home."
This chair analogy literally has changed my perspective on rejection and it has helped me cope with it much better. I am a firm believer that things are meant to happen when the time is right. On the other hand I also believe that rejection can sometimes be our blessing in disguise. Sometimes the thing that seems to be your destiny is actually holding you back from your greatness! So the next time you get rejected, please keep this analogy in mind and remind yourself that you are worthy and capable. Your greatness will truly flourish in an environment you fit in!

text: You are here: RILA » Sustainability / Environment » Retail Sustainability Report » Managing Sustainability » Teams and Organizational Structure PageContent2A sustainability team is the lifeblood of a sustainability program. Teams orchestrate the development of strategies, action plans, and implementation efforts by working with a diverse group, both internal and external to the company. Creating a multidisciplinary team that focuses on sustainability performance improvement is the first step on a path to success within an organization. KEY FINDINGS Most companies have full-time sustainability teams. Teams are growing, and reporting levels are gaining seniority. Sustainability teams mainly use their time to orchestrate internal efforts and develop strategies. No single department stands out as being the champion of retail sustainability; instead each company places their team where it can be most effective. The sustainability team either manages or has strong alignment with both the environmental regulatory compliance and social compliance functions. Teams and Organizational Structure Page Content WHILE TEAMS GROW, SENIORITY RISES Of retailers surveyed, nearly two-thirds of companies have full-time staff dedicated to sustainability. Sixty percent of companies have part-time staff dedicated to particular aspects of sustainability. Of the retailers with staff, the full-time team grew on average from a little less than three to nearly five people between 2009 and 2012. As teams grow, so too does the highest reporting level of the team manager. Since 2009, 40 percent of sustainability teams gained new director positions, and 29 percent gained new vice president positions. As sustainability executives rise in seniority, they hold more influence and receive greater attention within the company. TEAMS USE THEIR TIME FOR MANY TASKS All sustainability functions share common tasks. Together, orchestrating internal efforts and developing a sustainability strategy account for at least one-third of working hours. Complying with federal regulations, interacting with senior management, reviewing environmental metrics, and researching best practices collectively make up another third. While teams are reporting that they spend less time interacting with suppliers, respondents say that supplier engagement will become more important over the next five years. REPORTING STRUCTURE VARIES The sustainability team does not typically report to any single department within retail companies; instead the reporting structure varies based on a number of factors. The company's culture, the department with the biggest opportunity for impact, and the existing resources and enthusiasm all factor into the team's location. For example, a retailer that is primarily focused on supplier engagement may select the sourcing department as the sustainability lead, while a company focused on energy efficiency in its buildings will choose the real estate or facilities team to lead its sustainability efforts. Through our survey's "Other" option, some retail sustainability teams indicated that they report directly to executive management, whether the CEO, president, or another top executive. We intend to solicit this information through the survey more directly in the future. RESPONSIBILITIES ARE BROADENING Expanding a sustainability team also increases its breadth of responsibility and interaction within the company. The two most common functions of sustainability teams are strategic planning and tactical implementation of sustainability programs. To guide the strategic direction of their sustainability programs, teams strategize, set goals, and report on sustainability initiatives, all while working to engage both the company's employees and external stakeholders. This tactical strategy extends to recycling operations, energy management, greenhouse gas reduction, and compliance with environmental regulations. Specific initiatives vary greatly among retailers. Each company continuously defines and refines its focus on issues material to its business. For example, while grocers may focus on sustainable seafood sourcing, apparel merchandisers find addressing the working conditions of their manufacturers' employees more relevant. Often public awareness and policy guide these emphases, such as electronics retailers who find themselves increasingly invested in growing e-waste recycling options. However, almost all retailers are uniformly responsive to such issues as legislation surrounding plastic bags since bag taxes or bans directly impact a fairly ubiquitous feature of retail shopping. COMPLIANCE IS THE FOUNDATION OF A SUSTAINABILITY PROGRAM The retail industry places significant priority on compliance with both regulatory requirements for environment, health, and safety, as well as industry-developed voluntary compliance to maintain proper working conditions and human rights throughout the entire supply chain, from raw material sourcing to the manufacturing process. Sustainability teams interact with key internal departments to ensure that environmental and social compliance programs meet the expectations of all stakeholders. In retail, environmental compliance considerations mainly center on regulations from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Transportation, and state and local jurisdictions. Specific issues include facility construction and maintenance like stormwater runoff, employee health and safety practices, and hazardous product transportation and waste management. Retailers' environmental compliance programs are managed between sustainability and environmental compliance operations, with half of companies holding both operations in the same department and the other half in separate departments. Of those retailers with environmental compliance in a separate department from sustainability, the environmental compliance team is most often housed under loss prevention, asset protection, legal, or environmental health and safety. The teams, while reporting to separate locations within the organization, frequently coordinate for updates and strategy alignment. Two of every three retailers have an environmental compliance team that is deeply aligned with the company's sustainability initiatives. While compliance is a familiar focus area for retailers, important new issues are always emerging. Increased awareness of chemicals of concern, as well as more comprehensive product safety and risk mitigation, has led to an even broader emphasis on regulatory compliance for those who sell products with hazardous properties. These teams are responsible for ensuring that all products posing any risk are in compliance with appropriate laws. Social compliance or ethical sourcing can be defined as a continuous process in which companies refine their sourcing policies and practices to ensure the health, safety, well-being, and fundamental rights of all people employed throughout their supply chain. Most often focused on in developing countries, social compliance is driven by ethical considerations, consumer interest, and nongovernmental organizations investigating the working conditions of laborers throughout the supply chain. Suppliers and retailers adhere to social accountability standards, whether self-imposed or legal, within their social compliance objectives. To do so, companies create and implement ethical sourcing policies and practices that extend beyond their own organization into their product supply chains, both domestically and abroad. Consumer product manufacturers with well-recognized brand names will often have their own ethical sourcing policies and practices independent of the retailers they sell to; therefore, retail companies typically focus their ethical sourcing efforts on their private-label products. Over the past few decades, companies have continued to develop new strategies to educate, train, and ensure—often through facility audits—that their supply chain partners are making products under conditions that meet their standards. Those standards are often documented and codified in supplier codes of conduct, which are written and enforced individually or collectively through industry associations. Nearly two out of three retailers report that their social compliance teams, like environmental compliance teams, are strongly aligned with their sustainability teams. Almost 80 percent manage social compliance operations in a separate department, most commonly with the merchandising, legal, public relations, or supply chain groups. These groups, often with direct visibility to the supply chain, can be most effective in ensuring compliance to vendor's codes of conduct. However, in recent years, the convergence of environmental sustainability and social compliance functions has begun to paint a complete picture of suppliers' environmental and social impacts. PRACTICES OF TOP-PERFORMING COMPANIES DIMENSION TOP TRAIT(S) Top sustainability leader Vice president or above Size of sustainability team Average of nine team members Resident departments for part-time sustainability reports Public and government relations, supply chain, merchandising, and facilities, real estate, and construction How the sustainability lead spends his or her day Orchestrating internal efforts, communicating with stakeholder organizations, developing strategy, and interacting with senior managers

I am far from mastering the technique at this point, and it is probably far from traditionally prepared, but it is good and pretty easy (although a little messy). I will definitely keep doing this because the flavor is so good and there are a lot of ways this could be enjoyed. You can use pretty much any cut of chicken or even pork with this recipe, but I prefer boneless/skinless chicken breast.
Here's what you need to do:
- Mix your seasoned flour: Mix all purpose flour with salt, pepper, a bit of cayenne pepper, a bit of paprika and a small amount of baking powder to help with the crunch (maybe a teaspoon or 2 tops). You can pretty much mix any seasoning you want here, just be careful not to mix in items that may burn or be too large. Breadcrumbs could also be used here if that is desired. Make sure to taste your flour to check that it is seasoned sufficiently (especially on the salt). Place flour mixture on a plate (or anything you can easily throw in the dishwasher after).
- Pour buttermilk on to a plate or other dish. Can use normal milk if no buttermilk, but it will be thinner and less flavorful.
- Cut chicken breasts in half (so that they are thinner—you could probably ask the butcher to do this but I usually forget to ask) and pound thin to an even width with a heavy object (about 1/3 inch thick), while covering the chicken with plastic wrap. Season chicken with salt and pepper.
- Heat up a deep pan on medium-high heat, cast iron or other heavy bottomed if you have it, but stainless steel will work as well. Use a small amount of oil with a high smoking point (peanut, sunflower, vegetable).
- Completely dredge chicken in seasoned flour mixture, then completely dip into buttermilk, and finally dip into the seasoned flour mixture again, making sure flour is everywhere.
- Place chicken in pan, not moving until bottom side is golden brown. Flip and cook until brown on other side.
- Remove from pan and place onto a metal rack or paper toweled tray (to keep crispy), and sprinkle a little salt on top while still hot.
When seasoned correctly, this can seriously be eaten plain. But here are some other options to make it a full meal: place on top of mashed potatoes, with gravy or a pan sauce, with homemade ranch and/or buffalo sauce (equal parts melted butter and Frank's Hot Sauce), with some sautéed mustard/collard greens/spinach or make a sandwich (w/ the homemade ranch).
Hopefully this doesn't sound too hard, because it isn't and if you clean as you go and use dishwasher safe dishes, then it's not too difficult to clean up either. Enjoy!!

Zazzy is a website that allows you to create your own 3D-printable jewelry. As the site's motto says, "You do the chic, we do the geek."
The process is simple: pick your jewelry, design it, and then Zazzy prints it for you. There are several types of jewelry that you can pick from to design, including necklaces, bracelets, and rings. For most pieces can customize the text, font, color, and some symbols; for others, you can design the shape as well.
The website is intuitive to use, but taking the design you're imagining in your head and translating it to the jewelry can be a tad challenging. (For reference, check out my attempt to make a peace sign above.) I admit it's easier to create text-based jewelry, which you can already do on other websites.
For those who are more talented in the design arena, Zazzy has also launched a marketplace. Artists can upload sketches, choose their material, set profit goals, and then open online stores.
The marketplace is also great for those who want some 3D-printed jewelry, but don't have the patience to hand-craft the design themselves (like me). Plus, there are already some creative statement pieces for sale. I recommend checking out Atomic Lotus in Silver by Scott Lewis, which is depicted above.
