We've just been sent this piece of footage, which shows a toddler taking control of a bike – with two pillions sat behind him.
In the video, the three-year-old boy (who wasn't wearing a helmet) hit speeds of 40mph while steering the bike, as two adults sat behind him. Admittedly, it looks like he's a natural behind the bars, but that's probably not enough of a reason to hand over control. In the minute-long footage, the little boy appears to remain balanced and in control of the motorbike, with the man behind him sat with his arms folded. The second passenger, who appears completely relaxed, can be seen taking photographs and video as the kid passes traffic.

Between the star-studded cast and a plot that
sounds more like a dark character study than your average superhero adventure, director
Todd Phillips' take on the iconic villain is one of the more highly anticipated movies
of 2019. Here's a look at the untold truth of Joaquin
Phoenix's Joker. As revealed by cast member Zazie Beetz, the
movie was rewritten as it was filmed. During an interview with MTV, Beetz went into
detail about the filming process: "We rewrote the whole thing while we were
shooting it. Literally, we would go into Todd's trailer
and write the scene for the night and then do it." The frequent rewrites and reshoots suggest
a much more improvisational approach than most comic book movie directors take, which
isn't necessarily a bad thing it implies that the final product will be a more collaborative
work incorporating ideas from the cast into the director's vision. Although Phillips' approach is unusual, it
isn't without precedent. Iron Man, for instance, was also written and
further developed as it was filmed. According to Jeff Bridges, who played antagonist
Obadiah Stane, the entire project was based around an outline. Bridges and Robert Downey Jr. would improvise
their way through scenes under the guidance of director Jon Favreau in their trailers
while the crew waited on the set. If Iron Man was shot in such a loose manner
and still turned out to be the smash hit that launched the MCU, there's definitely hope
for Joaquin Phoenix's Joker. In a rather unexpected move, Warner Bros.
brought on Todd Phillips as director, producer, and co-writer for the film. Although Phillips is a veteran filmmaker,
he's best known for raunchy comedies such as the Hangover trilogy, so it will be interesting
to see how he fares creating a much darker and more serious film. The studio has promised Phoenix's Joker will
be a gritty low-budget character study quite a departure from the light-hearted slapstick
comedies he's worked on before. "Don't be afraid to ride the lightning" "In the face, in the face, ha ha ha." The closest that Phillips has come to working
on this type of film before was when he wrote, produced, and directed 2016's War Dogs. Although that movie was an action comedy that
touched on some darker elements of human nature, it's already clear from the few glimpses we've
had of Phoenix as the Joker that this new project is going deeper and darker than any
of Phillips' earlier features. Joaquin Phoenix was a pretty major casting
coup for Joker, but he isn't the only impressive name going before the cameras for the film. An equally unexpected addition: Robert De
Niro, who's portraying a talk-show host who plays a role in setting Joker down the path
that turns him into the sociopathic clown we all know and love to hate. One of the reasons this role may have appealed
to De Niro is because the script is reminiscent of a movie he previously starred in, The King
of Comedy. In that film, De Niro played a mentally unhinged
and wildly unsuccessful comedian who kidnaps a talk show host in order to get his "big
break." This sounds eerily similar to the premise
of the Joker origin movie, only Phoenix will be playing the deranged aspiring comic and
De Niro may be the one getting kidnapped this time. Marc Maron has also joined the cast as a talent
agent who presumably works alongside De Niro's character, and Zazie Beetz has also joined
the cast as a single mother who catches the Joker's eye. Todd Phillips elected to film on location
in New York, which meant seemingly anyone with a camera in the Big Apple took a shot
at trying to snap photos of Phoenix and his co-stars in costume. Phillips found himself becoming increasingly
annoyed by the paparazzi taking grainy photos from whatever long-distance angle they could
muster, so he decided to cut out the middleman and put out several high-quality photos himself. When a few fans commented that they were seeing
too much of the movie before it was even released, Phillips responded and explained his reasoning
behind releasing the images: "We have paparazzi all over our set, at every
turn. And it bums me out that they constantly put
out their bad shots. So I figure, may as well put out some good
ones." Jared Leto is still slated to star in his
own standalone Joker film despite the backlash over his first appearance as the character
in Suicide Squad, which means there will be two different iterations of the villain on
screens around roughly the same time. It's unusual for a studio to pit actors against
each other this way, but there's a twist: they might not be the same Joker. Phoenix is in his mid-40s, which means Joaquin's
Joker will be already be approaching middle age when this origin story unfolds. Since it's been confirmed that Bruce Wayne's
father will play a role in the film, this suggests Phillips' story takes place when
Bruce himself is still just a child. This age difference is important to note because
by the time Bruce Wayne would be old enough to start patrolling the streets of Gotham
as Batman, Joaquin's Joker would be something like 60 or 70. Since Batman and Joker are typically assumed
to be around the same age, some fans have suggested that Joaquin's iteration of the
character might serve as inspiration for the Joker that Batman faces later on. Despite being nominated for three Oscars,
Joaquin Phoenix found himself thoroughly intimidated by the idea of playing the Joker which is
one of the main reasons he ultimately ended up signing on for the project. Even though Phoenix has a wide variety of
experience, playing everything from a famous musician to a paranoid emperor in past roles,
he admitted to being terrified by the idea of portraying one of the most iconic villains
of all time. "Rah!" This isn't the first time Phoenix has contemplated
playing a comic book character, as he was one of the main actors being considered for
the role of Doctor Strange. He ended up passing on the role, saying he
was worried that a blockbuster film run by a huge studio would restrict his freedom as
an actor which suggests this Joker will be a one-and-done deal for its star. Another reason Phoenix ended up agreeing to
star in Joker was the fact that he quickly became enthralled with Phillips' vision of
a completely new take on a familiar comic book villain. Since there have been so many different iterations
of the Joker over the years, some critics were wary of yet another one on the big screen. We've even seen several versions of the Joker's
origin story. But Phoenix remains optimistic about the project
because it's unlike any other version of the Joker audiences have seen before. He said: "I wouldn't quite classify this as like any
genre. I wouldn't say it's a superhero movie, or
a studio movie. It feels unique, and I think more than anything,
and probably the most important thing, is Todd seems very passionate about it and very
giving, so that's exciting." Without the presence of Batman or other widely
known comic book characters besides the Joker himself, this film is already headed in a
very different direction and we haven't even seen what else Phillips might have up his
sleeve. The first images of Phoenix in costume revealed
the grubby makeup he would be wearing as the Joker, and offered some insight into some
of the inspirations for this version of the Clown Prince of Crime. Although at first glance the makeup design
definitely seems reminiscent of Heath Ledger's Joker, upon further examination it also seems
to draw inspiration from several other sources. The color palette used certainly seems inspired
by the makeup worn by John Wayne Gacy, a serial killer in the '70s who worked as a clown at
parties and events. Gacy's clown makeup also incorporated the
wide red mouth and high blue eye paint that appears on Phoenix. The bright blue makeup around the eyes also
seems to be a nod to the look that the Joker had in some of the older Batman comics, such
as "The Laughing Fish" and "Sign of the Joker." Making movies might seem glamorous, but those
days on the set can be long and difficult. According to TMZ, conditions on Joker took
a turn for the worse in October 2018 when the cast was filming on location in a Brooklyn
subway station. Apparently, a group of extras were actually
locked inside a subway car for hours. Since they'd been locked inside the train
car for so long that they needed to use the bathroom, some extras resorted to urinating
on the train tracks between cars just to finally get some relief. Upon receiving complaints about the incident,
the Screen Actors Guild sent a representative to handle the situation and monitor Phillips'
set for the rest of the shoot. In interviews, Joaquin Phoenix has suggested
that Joker won't be the typical adrenaline-spiking, CGI-filled action film that DC and Marvel
fans are accustomed to. Instead, the studio plans to deliver a low-budget
character study. As it turns out, Phoenix had actually discussed
a similar idea several years before he heard a Joker origin movie was in the works. "Three or four years ago, I called my agent
and said 'Why don't they want to take one of these characters and just make a lower
budget film about it, a movie but a character study, and why not take one of the villains?'" Although Phoenix's agent tried to convince
him to attend a general meeting with Warner Bros. after this talk, Phoenix dismissed the
idea. He even forgot about the entire concept until
he heard about Phillips' film and realized it was exactly the type of role he'd been
imagining. Based on the brief descriptions of the script,
cast, and some set photos, there's ample speculation that Joker will be taking inspiration from
a comic considered one of the greatest Joker stories of all time: The Killing Joke. Although it won't be a direct adaptation,
several core elements from the comic's storyline could be carried over. Written by Alan Moore, it's one of the best
and most widely acclaimed Joker stories, and the beginning sounds very similar to the premise
of Joaquin Phoenix's Joker. Just like Phoenix's character Arthur Fleck,
the Joker in The Killing Joke started out as a failed and frustrated stand-up comedian. "You got a funny shaped head." "Maybe I should have been a clown instead
of a comedian." As the story progresses, he's transformed
into the Joker in an accident after getting involved in a robbery with some shady characters
in order to support his pregnant wife. Given that Zazie Beetz is playing a single
mother who Phoenix's character falls for, it stands to reason that this Joker might
also start down a dark path in an attempt to provide for a woman and her child. Another Killing Joke connection comes from
some of the first set pictures, which show an area that resembles Amusement Mile a section
of Gotham City that appears in the comic. Phoenix has gained a reputation for undergoing
dramatic transformations, such as when he played Johnny Cash in Walk the Line or Jesus
Christ in Mary Magdalene. When preparing for his role as the Joker,
he once again faced a physical challenge. In order to emulate the traditionally scrawny
villain, the actor had to slim down considerably. Joker co-star Zazie Beetz revealed that Phoenix's
weight loss was so significant that it actually limited the potential for reshoots after the
production completed filming. "We had to do everything then because Joaquin
had lost so much weight that we couldn't do reshoots later on." Even though drastic physical transformations
can take a serious toll on an actor's health, it comes as no surprise that a performer so
legendarily dedicated to his craft would go above and beyond to completely transform into
his character. Check out one of our newest videos right here! Plus, even more Looper videos about all things

Your smile says a lot about you. After all, a person's smile is often the first thing we notice when greeting someone. For men and women who have unattractive teeth, smiling may be a source of worry due to fear someone will see a missing, chipped, discolored, or misaligned tooth. If you feel self-conscious about your teeth because your smile is not as attractive as you would like, a smile makeover could be your solution. The award-winning dentists at Dallas Laser Dentistry in Dallas, TX can transform your smile into one you will feel proud to wear confidently. Dr. Mary Swift and Dr. Alana Reifer have extensive cosmetic dental experience, including advanced training in both general and cosmetic dentistry. They both possess the artistic skill and know-how needed to analyze and create a smile uniquely designed for your face. If your smile is a source of worry, then read below to learn about four different dental treatments that, individually or in combination, can transform your smile into one that's truly contagious.
What is a smile makeover?
A smile makeover is a customized treatment plan that improves the appearance of your smile with a variety of custom restorative, orthodontic, and cosmetic treatments. Possible treatment options may include porcelain veneers, laser teeth whitening, dental implants, or teeth straightening. The main goal of a smile makeover is to improve not only how your teeth look, but also your oral health. Some smile makeovers are more subtle and may only consist of one treatment such as veneers or teeth whitening. Other makeovers may be more extensive and require multiple procedures like crowns or fillings for severely decayed teeth, dental implants to replace missing teeth, or orthodontic treatment to realign crooked teeth.
The experienced team at Dallas Laser Dentistry will first ensure a clean oral health check before moving forward with aesthetic remedies. Dallas area patients with cavities, gum disease, plaque buildup, or more will want to address these issues first with our dental experts to ensure a healthy, long-lasting smile makeover. Once everything is in top-notch shape, a customized treatment plan will be developed to give you a smile that goes from blah to wow.
How do I know if a smile makeover will help me?
Some of the signs you may benefit from a smile makeover include:
Chipped tooth
A chipped tooth is never anticipated, and it can happen from even the smallest things. Whether you chipped your tooth due to an injury or from merely biting down on a piece of candy, it can affect the way people view you as well as your self-confidence. Even though other people may or may not notice it, it is common to think that people are staring at your chipped tooth while you speak.
Being Ashamed to smile
If you cover your mouth when you talk to someone face-to-face, or don't smile when someone is taking a picture, the odds are you're ashamed of your smile. While normal, not smiling can have many repercussions you may not even be aware are occuring. For example, your fellow workers may think you are aloof or unfriendly if you don't smile at them. In social situations, someone you really want to come over and talk with you may think just the opposite if you don't smile broadly. Then, when people aren't as friendly to you as you would like, it may lead to an erosion of your own self-confidence.
Tobacco use and stain-inducing beverages such as wine, coffee, or tea can alter the color of your teeth from white to yellow. Discolored teeth can make anyone feel self-conscious and even make you look older than your age. There are many over-the-counter teeth whitening options, but they do not provide the same long-lasting results as professional whitening treatments offered at Dallas Laser Dentistry.
Misshapen or crooked teeth
Teeth that are misshapen or crooked can cause other problems in the mouth. Overcrowding, an overbite, and an overall unsightly appearance are all hallmarks of these issues. Our dentists provide multiple treatment options, including state-of-the-art orthodontic treatments such as Invisalign that can correct your teeth to a straighter, more symmetrical smile.
Four popular dental treatments used in a smile makeover
Composite Resin Fillings
Resins can be used to treat a variety of dental issues, including cavities and decayed, chipped, broken, or worn-down teeth. The resin matches the shade and color of a patient's natural teeth. Resin fillings are often used for the more visible front teeth and also when replacing old silver fillings.
Laser teeth whitening
Laser teeth whitening is a revolutionary and clinically proven in-office treatment that gets your teeth up to 10 shades whiter in one single appointment. This state-of-the-art laser lightens discoloration from the enamel and dentin quickly without damaging your tooth's structure. Laser whitening is fantastic, especially for patients with coffee, food, and tobacco stains. Compared to over-the-counter whitening products, laser teeth whitening can last significantly longer and get your teeth substantially whiter.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are an integral part of a long-lasting and effective smile makeover. These custom-made translucent and durable porcelain "shells" are placed over a patient's real teeth to mask gaps, cracks, and unremovable stains, as well as crooked or asymmetrical teeth. Veneers can offer the most dramatic results and are one of the most popular smile makeover options for our Dallas, TX dental patients. Veneers are permanently bonded to the front of the teeth, resulting in a long-lasting, beautiful, symmetrical smile that hides any imperfections that once existed - the ultimate Hollywood smile.
Teeth straightening with Invisalign orthodontics
The dentists at Dallas Laser Dentistry offer Invisalign to help patients transform uneven teeth into a straight and uniform smile and to correct and perfect your bite so your other cosmetic treatments last as long as possible. Invisalign is an excellent option for teens and adults who are interested in straighter teeth but want flexibility and less treatment time than traditional braces. Invisalign features multiple clear aligners that are made from digital molds of your teeth. These aligners are created for both the top and bottom teeth, and every week are replaced with a new set as movement takes place. When worn for the recommended 22 hours a day, typical treatment time can take anywhere from 6-12 months.
Free smile consultation and digital smile simulation
Many cosmetic candidates wonder if investing in cosmetic dentistry will be worth the investment, and wonder what their new smile will look like. During your free smile consultation at Dallas Laser Dentistry in Dallas, TX, your cosmetic dentist will discuss and review your aesthetic procedure choices. We'll also create a digital smile simulation to help you see approximately what your new smile will be like. Based on your concerns and wants, you might benefit from laser teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, Invisalign, or a dental restoration. During this time, we will explain all of your options so you can make an informed choice for your oral health and appearance. Our office offers many cosmetic procedures, any and all of which can be used to create the best smile makeover custom designed for you.
The time is now for your beautiful new smile
Our website features a simple yes or no smile analysis questionnaire. If you said "Yes" to any of the questions asked, then contact our office in Dallas, TX to schedule a consultation for your smile makeover. Our experienced team of dentists will assess your oral health and collaborate with you as to which procedures are the best fit for your aesthetic objectives.

The purpose of well-being programs is to create an environment where employee's physical, cognitive and emotional energies can thrive. For a company to be successful, managers need their employees not only to survive, but to thrive. Similarly to any other project that a company takes, it is important to have good metrics to evaluate the effectiveness of a program. Most financial executives and senior company executives are familiar with Return on Investment (ROI) for evaluating projects. We discuss how to similarly use ROI to evaluate wellbeing programs.
A recent report from the SHRM Foundation, in collaboration with Globoforce, titled "Creating a More Human Workplace Where Employees and Business Thrive," explains that caring workplaces produce employees who love their jobs and are more productive and engaged.
Measuring the benefits: ROI and other measures
The benefit of company well-being programs can be viewed in two ways either as a return on investment (ROI) or value of investment (VOI).
Most companies put more effort in measuring potential savings because wellness programs generally save money rather than generate revenue.
ROI of Well-being Programs
A return on investment measure aims at calculating the exact dollar savings from an investment. The formula is straightforward:
If we look at wellness programs as an investment cost, then the total earnings are the savings as a result of the program. There are several challenges on calculating such savings:
- First, savings can be difficult to measure in dollars.
- Second, it can be difficult to determine how much of the savings come from each new program.
While it is more challenging to measure the ROI of a workplace wellness program, there are four factors that have data that can be analyzed. Most companies can easily report the costs in dollars but can only track data on three of the four categories.
- Savings on Medical Claims
Having a program that educates employees on better usage of medical resources can decrease overall medical claims. The decrease in claims is part of the savings in the measure of ROI.
- Savings in Disability Claims
Similarly to medical claims, a decrease in the disability claims directly impacts the bottom line and reflects in the ROI from a wellbeing program.
- Percentage Decrease in Absenteeism
A strong wellness program that encourages healthy behavior also means less sick days off from employees.
- Percentage Decrease in Employee Turnover
Losing and replacing employees is a costly hardship on companies. There may be a direct lack of production and efficiency when a vacancy is left open. There are costs associated with recruitment, hiring, onboarding, and training. (See related article on Decreasing Turnover)
Successful wellbeing programs are built around helping employees reduce healthcare costs, including absence for sick days taken and employee turnover. An example of this is Continuwell's Health Ambassadors well-being program, aimed at helping employees manage chronic conditions and reduce disability claims.
Example: Measuring ROI from a Health Ambassador Program:
- Direct and Immediate Benefit:
Decrease ER Utilization: Based on Data from the Continuwell Health Ambassador program, Continuwell has observed that on average, 1 out of 7 callers are diverted from unnecessary emergency room visits by our nurses (i.e. 14% of callers). Historical data also shows an expected utilization between 10 and 25% percent a year. See table for a sample expected ROI from Continuwell nurse calls.
Assume N. of Employees
Annual Fee for Choice Plan
ER Visits Saved from Past Data
Assume Cost of Unnecessary ER Visit
Family Size Estimate – 3 Family Members Per Employee[1]
Example: ROI from ER Savings Estimate for Different Utilization Rates:
Annual % of Calls
Expected Annual N. of Calls/
N. of Saved ER Visits –
ROI from ER Savings
In addition to direct measures of dollars saved, there are other items that can be difficult to measure in exact amounts. Unlike investment in a project decision, which lead to dollars earned, wellness programs impact results associated with people. Many of these results have to then be translated into dollar values which can be challenging and not clear-cut. For example, some companies observe an increase in employee loyalty and commitment following the implementation of a new program. How do you translate increase commitment into dollar values?
VOI of Well-being Programs
Measuring the value of most well-being programs in the workplace falls outside of the traditional categories. The benefits are difficult to measure in dollars, yet still have been shown to contribute to significant financial gains for companies when implementing a quality well-being program.
- Reduces health risks
- Reduces absenteeism
- Increases productivity
- Improves job safety
- Improves morale and loyalty to the company
Low Cost to Implement
It does not take a major investment to begin your company's wellbeing program. According to SHRM, "The most common wellness benefit is providing wellness resources or information."
Example: In the Continuwell app, employees can easily search and access the resources that their company provides. Administrators can even send well-being tips to employees through push notifications.
These are just a few of the great resources available to employees.
For more information about VOI programs, please fill out the form below to be contacted by one of our wellness analysts. We would be happy to explain more about the differences in the programs available and talk with you further about how these programs can be implemented into your organization.

#Jaguar is planning a new SUV family including a compact models to slot in below the #F-Pace
With 2015 set to be the busiest year for Jaguar in a generation, new product plans reveal that it's just the start of an onslaught of new models that includes the possibility of a family of SUVs, starting with a sporty B-segment model.
Following the arrival of the XE this month and the XF later in the year, the production version of the mid-sized F-Pace SUV will debut at September's Frankfurt Motor Show before going on sale this time next year.
The F-Pace is pivotal to Jaguar's future, not only in inspiring a new generation of models, but providing the cash to develop them. An industry insider told Auto Express: "Jaguar needs to be self-sufficient, so the cash generated from sales of the #XE, #XF and F-Pace is needed to fund the development of new models."

We're eager to see the implementation of a new program that could encourage bike riding on our city's greenway system and throughout the city.
We recently reported that the city's Parks, Recreation and Forestry Department is working to contract with a private company to operate a bike-share rental program within the city. The program could be implemented as early as mid-June.
Skinny Labs Inc. (doing business as Spin) could provide 150 bicycles that could be checked out by visitors and residents. Using a smartphone app, users could check out the bikes and pay $1 for 30 minutes. Spin also would offer an alternate payment method for people who do not have smartphones or credit cards.
We like the idea.
As we've said before, our city has an excellent greenway system that, over the last quarter century, has been interconnected throughout the community.
Almost anywhere in the city, you don't have far to go to jump on a portion of the greenway, and walk or ride to your heart's content.
This program has the potential to make it easy and affordable for people — who may not have their own bikes — to ride the greenway.
A family of four could go on a 2-hour ride for $16. That's a fraction of the price of going out for popcorn and a movie or out to dinner, and you'll be burning calories rather than packing them on.
We also like that the program would be implemented without the use of city tax money. The city would contract with the company to operate here, but Spin operates as a for-profit business.
The bikes would be "dockless" — they wouldn't be docked at designated bike stations. Spin and the city can designate areas where they encourage people to park their GPS-equipped bikes, but Spin will send out staff at the end of every day to relocate all bikes back to the designated areas.
We believe the concept is a great way to encourage bike riding as a means of entertainment and transportation, and a way to do so without use of taxpayer money.

She cut her teeth in government and accounting services. She ultimately chose sport management over law school. And she now leads premium sales in Major League Soccer's newest venue. She's Chelsey Burns, Director, Premium Sales & Service at Orlando City.
Chelsey Burns has had a career, and a personal life, that's a direct result of hard work, a bit of luck, and a dash of serendipity.
After graduating from Florida State University in 2006, Chelsey went to work for Florida Governor Charlie Crist in External Affairs, assisting with special events, including the annual Easter Egg Hunt and official bill signings.
Following that experience, she worked in business development at a CPA firm in Washington, DC, selling accounting services to corporations. Eventually, she decided it was time to further her education. After doing well on her LSATs, she enrolled in the Sports Industry Management Master's Program at Georgetown University, while keeping her day job at the accounting firm.
A former high school cheerleader and diehard Florida State football fan, Chelsey thought enrolling in the Sports Industry Management Master's Program might prove more appealing than law school.
"We were never a big sports family," she says. "But we really liked watching and shared a passion for sports. And I thought I could do a good job."
While sports marketing was her anticipated route after graduating from Georgetown, ticket sales quite literally fell into her lap.
A Foot in the Door
Now here's the serendipitous part.
"It was my last semester at Georgetown," Chelsey remembers. "The professor, the VP of Sales at the Washington Nationals baseball team, asked one night, 'Who in this room would be comfortable in ticket sales as a career?' Now, this was a sales class, but I was the only one to raise my hand. I was always comfortable selling to C-Suite executives. All I knew at that point was that I didn't want to sell accounting services forever."
"I was always comfortable selling to C-Suite executives. All I knew at that point was that I didn't want to sell accounting services forever."
Chelsey says most of her classmates dreamed of becoming a GM, sports agent, or a scout.
"I guess they didn't think ticket sales was glamorous enough," she says.
Fast forward to graduation when her professor told her about a job opening at the Washington Nationals as a Premium Account Manager, selling premium tickets and suites.
"I applied, and I don't know if he pushed my résumé to the top of the pile or not, but I was called in for an interview."
And there's even more serendipity. The day she went in for the interview was the day she also met her future husband, Andy Burns.
"They basically told him to keep me entertained while I waited for the person who was going to interview me," she says.
And needless to say, he did.
Early Career Success
When Chelsey got the job with the Washington Nationals, she started cold calling, social selling on LinkedIn, and networking to make sales.
"We did a good job selling," she says. "Ninety-nine percent of my sales were to businesses – that was my bread and butter. I've always felt comfortable talking to executives and explaining the value of hosting clients at games."
After two-and-a-half years at the Nationals, Chelsey felt it was time to move up in her career and take on more responsibility.
Her father told her about a new soccer team coming to Orlando that might potentially become a pro team. Being from the Orlando area and already having her entire family still there, it seemed like a perfect opportunity.
"I asked my old boss from the Washington Nationals (who has since moved on himself) to put in a good word for me with the Orlando City soccer team, and they flew me down for the interview."
Andy, who had worked at the Nationals for eight years, had also moved on to Fortress, a London-based sports fan technology engagement solutions company.
"I read about all the amazing things the team was doing in Orlando, becoming a Major League Soccer team, and building a new stadium," Chelsey says. "It was an opportunity for me to start from the ground up. It's definitely been one of the more challenging jobs of my career, but such a huge learning experience."
Breaking Ground on New Opportunities
When Chelsey started with the Orlando City Soccer Club in 2014, the team was playing at the Citrus Bowl (now Camping World Stadium) – still two years away from opening the new stadium.
"The Citrus Bowl was mostly selling their own suites, so my team and I worked on selling club season tickets, and focused on selling the new stadium," she says. "One of the challenges we faced was that we still needed to establish pricing and seating capacities."
Orlando City Stadium broke ground in August 2015 with plans for 31 suites across two levels.
"We've been lucky because Orlando, as a city, has embraced the team," says Chelsey. "We sold out our first game, and then sold almost every suite on five- to seven-year contracts, and our Audi Sport Club seats for four-year terms. I'm working on selling the last two suites. We're determined to sell in the next few weeks."
Chelsey and her team also had to educate suite members and Audi Sport Club members on the new paperless ticketing via mobile phones and the use of season ticket cards.
"On gamedays, we are also responsible for ensuring all the food and beverage orders are in the suite and that the process is smooth."
"We've had contracts go back and forth, and sometimes, I felt like a paralegal. I realized I made the right decision not to go to law school."
As far as sales, Chelsey admits there have been a few roadblocks but feels that stands to reason.
"Sometimes you're asking for six figures, and they might have to get approvals, so it's basically just a longer sales cycle," she says. "We've had contracts go back and forth, and sometimes, I felt like a paralegal. I realized I made the right decision not to go to law school."
Once all the suites are sold, there's no sitting back.
"We're always servicing the accounts and managing relationships," she says.
Chelsey also gets requests that require special attention, like the couple that met at an Orlando City game, wants to get married before a game, and have a tailgate for their reception.
"I told them we'll make it happen."
Lessons Learned
While the wedding might be a bit unusual, Chelsey is always looking for new and unique ways to sell the stadium for non-gameday events, which is one reason why she enjoys attending the ALSD Conference.
"[At the conference], we get together with other MLS teams and talk about ways we can work together," Chelsey says. "I also get new ideas from other people in my position on selling the stadium, such as putting seats underneath the scoreboard and calling them premium seats."
She's also brought her Washington National baseball experience to Orlando in selling the shared suite idea, as she does for the Audi Sport Club.
Family Matters
On and off hours, Chelsey and her husband spend time with her "obsession" – their dog Tuukka, named for Boston Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask. Together, the couple also plays golf and watches sports.
"We still watch 75% of all Washington Nationals games, and I can't miss a Florida State football game," she says.
The couple also spends time with Chelsey's extended family (she is the second oldest of eight siblings) that lives in the Orlando area, playing kickball, swimming in her pool, and enjoying cookouts.
Her future plans include growing her sales career and possibly branching out to the sponsorship side. But for now, she'd like to stay in Orlando as long as she can.
"With my family here, I don't really see myself anywhere else."

The mission of the Tahoe Home Connection program is to unlock housing for our local community.
- Reaching homeowners of vacant homes to encourage them to rent their home seasonally or on a long-term basis through the program.
- Creating a platform that connects local employers with these homeowners.
- Providing resources for homeowners who want to rent seasonal and long-term through connecting homeowners with property managers, employers, resources for vetting and finding renters, and resources for updating their home.
Why do we need it?
Increasingly our local work force, including teachers, firefighters, nurses, and builders cannot find homes in Tahoe's South Shore. Many of them are moving off the hill. Employers are struggling to retain staff due to the housing shortage. It is beginning to affect our quality of life and the quality of the lake with all the commuter miles traveled.
With the most recent data available we know that 54% of our housing stock is vacant 85% of the time (U.S. Census, 2017). Some of our workers only need housing on a part-time or seasonal basis and would be a good match for a property owner who only uses their Tahoe house a few times a year. This program helps homeowners generate additional value from their property investment by matching them with reliable professional tenants on a short-term or long-term basis.
What are we asking?
If you are a South Shore property owner and currently have an unoccupied home, condominium, suite or even bedroom, we ask that you consider renting it to a working professional on a 3-6 month, seasonal or full-time basis. The TaHoCo program will pre-screen applicants for you and identify the perfect match for your situation. Our property managers can even manage the property for you. With so much demand for housing right now, a rental arrangement for part of a season or longer term can make a valuable difference.
How does it work?
If you own a residential home in Tahoe's South Shore, it's a no hassle opportunity to ensure the security and upkeep of your property and receive rental income. By renting your property through TaHoCo you are contributing to Tahoe South's vibrant community. Our resort's workforce needs accommodation. Lease your vacant suite to a hard-working Tahoe Local today!

Man Behind Effort to Legalize Abortion in Nicaragua Gets 30 Years for Step-Daughter's Rape
"MANAGUA, November 21, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Francisco Fletes Sanchez, who covered up his sexual abuse of his stepdaughter "Rosita" in 2003 with the help of international pro-abortion organizations, has received the maximum sentence of 30 years in prison for his crimes."
"Fletes achieved notoriety in 2003 when he cooperated with a coalition of pro-abortion feminist groups in Nicaragua to secure an abortion for his nine year old stepdaughter, whom he falsely claimed had been impregnated by a Costa Rican neighbor while the family was living and working in that country."
"The abortion prevented authorities from identifying Fletes as the perpetrator."
"Fletes continued to rape his daughter for four more years, and ultimately fathered a second child, who was not aborted. When the media discovered the child, Fletes confessed to the rape, resulting ultimately in today's sentence."

I think we all know by now that New Year's resolutions don't work, so why not try something different this year? Most resolutions have bitten the dust by February and over 80% of people rarely use their gym membership.
So here's another plan. Instead of "depriving yourself" by writing out unrealistic resolutions, why not treat yourself to a better brain in the coming year. It's easy and there's a lot of powerful science behind it.
A new study shows that you can boost cognitive ability and stave off dementia by following two easy steps. And best of all, you have it all at your fingertips, you don't need a fancy gym membership, a personal chef or a health spa.
Step one. The DASH DIET.
You've probably heard about the dash diet. Dash stands for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension. It's a wonderful eating plan, based on fresh veggies, fruits, fish, poultry, nuts and whole grains. It's easy and inexpensive to do and I think if you try it for a couple of weeks, you'll love it as much as I do. There are dozens of books written on it, and you can google it for a lot of free information. Say goodbye to sugar, fat, salt and processed food and your body will thank you.
Step two. Moderate exercise for 45 minutes 3 times a week.
What's considered moderate exercise? You don't have to go rock climbing or snowboarding. A 15 minute warm up followed by 30 minutes of walking or cycling will do the trick. You can walk outside like Alecks is doing. This shot was taken in Death Valley. She has the world at her fingertips!
Or you can cycle for your 30 minutes of exercise, after a warm up.
Follow these two steps to better brain functioning and you'll be happier and healthier in 2010. Need some recipes to get started? Here are some, courtesy of the Mayo Clinic, enjoy!

Submitted by farhan on
I am presently facing immense financial difficulties and have been banished to a rental flat in Pasir Ris while repaying the credit bureau from debts chalked up by my ex-husband who simply walked out of my 2 kids and I for a filipina woman.
Not that I mind as I have already resigned to fate but what made me very
pissed off is, the so-called 'social safety nets' that MSF claims to be
'enhanced' and 'in place' since 2011 in a "developed Singapore". I then
approached my Pasir Ris MP's grassroots (as the MP claims to be busy with his
schedule) which without second thoughts, referred my case on a template
letter to the Pasir Ris CCC and SSO. Needless to say, my appeal was rejected
unreservedly, stating that my "per capita income" exceeds $450 for my family
of 3. Who in the right sense of mind can survive on a per capita income of
$450 these days in this country? It can't even buy an appetizer from a 5 star
As a last resort, my case was being referred to the Eurasian Association (EA)
and Teng Foundation based on my ethnicity as it states on the web page of the
EA that a "Family Support Service" exists to provide financial assistance to
underprivileged Singaporean Eurasians. What begun as a source of hope quickly
turned into a nightmare as my application through the Admin Manager has
stalled since last November due to the medical treatment and subsequent leave
of the only Counsellor there as well as Committee Members who have gone on
their long holidays.
I gave them a recent buzz again and was told by a Ramakrishnan that some
Committee Members have since resigned and they are waiting to revamp and
reorganize the Association which could take several months and they are thus,
not helping anymore people. I was shocked to learn of this as I can't imagine
how could a Stat Board be allowed to function with such unprofessionalism on
taxpayer dollars? I had thought that since Mr Joseph Schooling had won our
country's first ever Gold Medal at an international level, that the
government and other races will treat Eurasians a little better after
sidelining us for decades.
But this all a dream and an illusion as well as "business as usual" for this
government does not know the meaning of gratitude. If they can ignore the
plight of minorities whose ancestors quietly slogged all their lives to build
Singapore, they will definitely screw Singaporeans who gave them a massive
mandate at the last GE. It is already happening with the recent retrenchments
of Singaporean workers who received vastly imbalanced compensations which
will set to become even more pronounced after CNY.
In the meantime, it is the waiting game for EA to try and get its act
together while Teng Foundation said they can only assist through
disbursements by the EA and they themselves are waiting for the EA to give an
account of their past grants which is long overdue. I certainly hope it will
not become an AGO or CPIB case and tarnish the good name of Eurasians in the
process for the systematic failure of the Trustees.

Today, I was sitting at my little desk, here in my home office, and looked out the window.
Sunny and warm! Yup, let's git on the bike!
I'm fortunate to live in central Oregon, where it's often sunny and warm. I also work out of my home office, and have a lot of control over my daily schedule. In addition, I live in the city of Bend, which is surrounded by miles and miles of fun, twisty roads. All within minutes of my home.
I jumped on the bike, and did a 2-hour loop, up through Terrebonne. Terrebonne is a little town, just north of Bend. Rock climbers should be familiar with Terrebonne, as the Smith Rock state park is just outside the town.
Smith Rock is a famous rock climbing area, and used to offer some of the most difficult climbs in the world. Back during my climbing days, I spent many a day on those rock walls, trying to link the moves to get to the top.
After a couple hours of glorious riding, I returned to Bend, and enjoyed some fine food-truck cuisine at one of my fave hangouts, Spoken Moto.
So, that's all I wanted to say, for this post. Back to my German language studies, I go.
I hope all of you are able to git out on the bike, and partake of the goodness of the lunch-time ride. Cheers.

"We have now come to the Age of Aquarius, the celestial cosmic turning of the dawn of a new consciousness. This is thought evolution, spiritual evolution. We are soldiers in a spiritual war and we must choose which side we will make a stand with. Crazy as it sounds, we are choosing a battle between our spirit and our brain, for this is a battle that is won from within, through the actions of the heart, by finding balance." – P. D. Alleva

The story of one boy's experience with the (not so) sweet hereafter.
Fresh from having stolen a piece of fruit and taunting the grocer, Jim, a fourteen-year-old wannabe gangster, bully, and car thief, is run over by a car. What follows is a hilarious, bleak, and ultimately hopeful visit to the afterworld, courtesy of Richard Scrimger, one of the country's finest writers.
This is an afterlife peopled with unforgettable characters that might be drawn from video games: angry Slayers, tearful Mourners, and scary Grave Walkers. Jim meets them all and is given the chance to return to earth with the extraordinary gift of knowing what happens when we die. Now he must deal with living demons, including a neighborhood torturer and a truly creepy older sister. With imagery from the mean streets as well as the arcade, Me and Death is thought-provoking, exciting, sad, and funny — sometimes all at the same time.
Click here to listen to an excerpt from the book
"The cosmology of Scrimger's afterlife manages the feat of being as inventive, playful and elaborate as a video game yet permeated with keen truths about this life, and maybe the next one, too. This is a quick-paced, entertaining read, yet the subtly handled beats of regret, loss and terror resonate." -- Vancouver Sun
"Scrimger's novel is a difficult, compelling read that taps into teens' fascination with death, as well as the line between good and bad behavior." -- Booklist
"Although this novel clearly draws on a fascination with the afterlife and ghost-human relations, it is infused with teen-appropriate black humour. The novel may be challenging for younger readers, with its ghostly shifting of time and place, but Jim's descriptions of the ghosts he encounters, his randy daydreams and his horrid nightmares are vivid and memorable." -- Resource Links
"I was amused ... and surprised. I liked the ending and enjoyed the story overall." -- The Little Bookworm
"A witty and original riff on the Scrooge story ... surprisingly chilling." -- Quill & Quire
"... comic irony and suspenseful climax." -- Toronto Star
"I LOVE quirky kids books... And Me & Death by Richard Scrimger was plenty enough quirky for my tastes. A sort of retelling of A Christmas Carol but with a mean kid instead of an old man, there was so much in this book that made me smile... Jim's a great character, and while Scrimger went overboard with Jim's bullying ways (but overboard in a fun way), the book never really came off as preachy when Jim starts to straighten out. I loved how all of the characters in Me & Death seemed so random at first, but in the end they all tied together and intertwined… a wonderful book and one that I would highly recommend." -- Lavender Line
"This supernatural young adult novel ... pulses in perfect beat with the hormone-addled teenage mind." -- Telegraph-Journal
"The story becomes more engrossing the more one reads. The setting is drawn realistically, and the direct style of writing, liberally seasoned with humour, propels one forward ... Jim, himself, is a believable personality whose growth and change from local delinquent to diamond is graduated and authentic. The large cast of minor characters is developed and real. The author manages to combine humour with pathos as well as providing readers with a situation that is at once gripping and thought-provoking.... The unorthodox fast moving plot, lively dialogue and believable characters make this an essential purchase." -- CM Magazine

The most devastating types of road accidents are often those involving large commercial trucks or 18 wheeler. These incidents often involve multiple vehicles and many injured victims or fatalities. The massive size and weight of big rigs and tractor trailers makes them exceptionally dangerous to all others who share the highways or streets.
When a car is hit by a 18-wheeler truck, not only will a car be damaged, but serious injury or death may occur. In fact there are more than 400,000 accidents involving large truck (including commercial box trucks and tractor-trailer combinations) in the US each year.

Searcher specialises in reprocessing public domain land and marine 2D and 3D surveys by sourcing the field tapes and support data to conduct full broadband PSTM or PSDM workflows using all available modern processing techniques.
Basin wide multi-vintage processing yields a considerable uplift in data quality at a fraction of the cost of new acquisition and often has the additional benefit of providing velocities, gathers, angle stacks and associated AVO products which may not have been produced at the time of acquisition.
Public domain 2D and 3D surveys are often small, partly overlapping datasets that vary widely in quality, character and vintage. The resulting 3D UltracubeTM and 2D SuperTieTM projects consists of high quality reprocessed data and are a very cost effective way to significantly improve the data quality and area of effective coverage for exploration at the regional or prospect scale.
Through our partnerships with leading service providers we have the capabilities to offer land and marine 2D, 3D and 4D processing solutions to suit any geological setting.

Some of our favourite snacks here at Mogo involve Korean fusion. So, for this week's edition of Mogo Twists, we thought we'd combine our vegetarian bulgogi lentils with Mexican cuisine and bring you some incredibly delicious bulgogi nachos!
The spicy, sour flavor of kimchi combined with the sweetness of the bulgogi and cheese really brings these nachos together. Substitute a mild red pepper sauce for salsa and top with sour cream, toasted sesame seeds, and green onions for the perfect snack for guests or a lazy Sunday of Netflix.
To really turn it into something special, add a fried egg on top with a slightly runny yolk to turn these nachos into a full on meal.
1 Bowl Nacho Chips (~1/4 to 1/2 bag)
1 Box Mogo Cincinnati Spaghetti Sauce
Cheese (Sharp cheddar or a blend) as much as you like
1/2 Cup Sour Cream
1 Cup Kimchi
1/2 Cup Green Onions
1 Egg, fried
1 tablespoon Toasted Sesame Seeds
Gochujang Sauce
1 tablespoon red pepper paste (gochujang)
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon brown sugar
(1) Follow the instructions to make the bulgogi lentils on the recipe card or at our website here.
(2) While the bulgogi lentils are cooking, fry the Kimchi in 1 tablespoon of oil or butter over medium heat for 5-10 minutes until most of the moisture is gone.
(3) Mix together the ingredients for the gochujang sauce in a small bowl and set aside.
(4) Just before the bulgogi is about to finish, add a small amount of oil to a pan and fry the egg.
(4) Top the nachos with the bulgogi, kimchi, sour cream, gochujang sauce, cheese, green onions, fried egg, and sesame seeds.

Just add water
March 27, 2009
Next week MIT will announce a new electrolyzer that is cheap, efficient, and works at room temperature. So just by using a little water, electricity can be stored as Hydrogen, to be converted back as needed using a fuel-cell.
This could make it radically simpler and cheaper to store electricity than it is now with batteries.
The missing piece of the puzzle then is a much cheaper fuel-cell.

The tables above list the old 2014 rates and new 2015 rates for private cars. The difference in rates are an increase of about the same amount as the adjustments made the previous two years.
Things will be different next year – 2016 is the deadline for planned "detariffing" of motor insurance premiums.
When that happens, premium rates will be further differentiated in accordance to the individual risk profile of vehicles, owners, as well as potential pricing differences between insurers.
When the detariffing comes into effect, we might see the emergence of 'full service' insurers with higher rates but more perks such as complimentary tow truck service, as well as 'budget no frills' insurers.
Motor insurance is the dominant business line for general insurers in Malaysia, registering a steady 5.4% growth for 2014. The industry paid out RM5.04 billion in motor insurance claims last year.
