At some time or another, you may have dealt with a coworker or employee that pushed your buttons or really tested your patience. It's no surprise that bad attitudes are unhealthy for teams and workplace communication. The more negative employees are at work, the less productive and valuable they are for the organization. Employees with bad attitudes are just as distracting to employees who are doing their jobs, as they are to the people managing them. This is why the ability to manage difficult employees is one of the most crucial leadership skills to have. But before you let that difficult employee go (that comes to mind as you read this), we are not only here to identify the four most common bad behaviors in the workplace, but also offer you some tips to managing difficult employees.
The Bad Behaviors:
It's not uncommon to have those select employees who continuously make snide remarks about company leaders, coworkers, or the day-to-day operations. These negative feelings towards the organization can clash with the company's goals and hurt the overall workplace environment.
Managing difficult employees with bad attitudes is especially challenging. They might refuse to perform a task just to prove a point. That is disrespectful and an unprofessional form of communication that needs to be addressed immediately.
Employees who aggravate and pick fights with other employees in the workplace create an uncomfortable and negative team environment. These employees don't make efforts to compromise or settle disagreements with coworkers which is detrimental to the team's communication integrity.
These are the employees who aren't engaged in their work and spend most of their time goofing off and causing distractions. An infographic created from the National Business Research Institute shared that disengaged employees spend their time sleeping, playing games, using social media, and socializing.
Do you remember Grumpy, one of Snow White's seven dwarfs? He was a master of these four bad attitudes. He was negative, stubborn, and made a fuss about everything. Do you work with an office "Grumpy" or an employee who walks into work with a negative or cynical attitude? If you do—it's OK—because at the end of the fairytale, Grumpy changes. Despite his initial bad attitude, he is the one who took charge and saved Snow White from the evil queen.
So before you dismiss the "Grumpys" of your office, decide if managing this difficult employee can be done in a timely manner and whether the line of respectful communication still exists. Finding ways to effectively manage employees with bad attitudes can save your organization the expense of unnecessary hiring costs. Did you know the average cost to replace an employee is 150 percent of the employee's annual compensation? And those costs can reach up to 250 percent when replacing managerial or sales employees. This article shows you how to calculate the cost of employee turnover.
The Solution:
Finding the source of the difficult employee's bad attitude can help you better coach and manage the employee's behavior without making him or her more upset. Let's face it, we all have grumpy days, but a prolonged bad attitude usually means there is something else going on.
Employee assessments that determine a candidate's ability to perform specific job duties and reveal certain personality traits can be very helpful for mangers looking to hire for job fit. Assessments, like the ProfileXT®let mangers know how employees respond to certain situations, how much they will love the job, and how they will interact with their peers and management. With this vital information, managers can decide how to best develop and communicate with the employee during a difficult time.
When evaluating the situation and preparing to talk with the difficult employee, leaders must ask themselves these four questions.
Once you have answered these questions leadership should confront the difficult employee privately and respectfully. Let the employee know how his or her behavior is negatively impacting the team and productivity. Keeping the questions above in mind, offer support but be firm, and let them know that their job is on the line if the bad attitude persists. Transparent communication is another valuable leadership skill to have in order to keep these kinds of conversations professional and to give constructive feedback with authority.

Hottest GIFs of Wet Women in Water
Some of the leading ladies of Hollywood get wet and wild as they get their splash on.
Some of the leading ladies of Hollywood get wet and wild as they get their splash on.
After watching Ronda Rousey win last weekend's fight (in only 14 seconds,) I have had a little bit of a fascination with the certified badass. Not only did she win her bout in UFC 184, but she is also featured in the latest Sports Illustrated: Swimsuit Edition.
It's time once more for some midweek booties.
HOLE-LEE-SHATNER! Did you see Ronda Rousey fight this last weekend. I couldn't tell if I was quivering from fear or arousal. Say what you want about female MMA fighters, Ronda could easily kick anyone's ass, and look damn good doing it...
Gorgeous women wearing just their underwear has to be the best way to wrap up your work day, right?
Taking a photograph of oneself is easier than ever. These ladies know that well.
When it comes to hot GIFS, look no further than this collection of flexible, foxy babes in motion.
Welcome to March Radness 2015! Your assignment: judge hot chicks for a chance to win a kick ass grand prize.
If you're ever feeling crappy, you can always find comfort in the Best Cleavage Ever (This Week).
We're beginning to think this might just be our sexiest collection of GIFs yet.
Get ready to fall in love with this pint-size pixie.
It may be frigid out there for half the country, but not wherever these babes are.

... Elon Musk has one hell of a rager over this. This could make electric cars that could go from Florida to New York on one charge, and recharge in similar time to a gas refill, a possibility.
Say you got 500 miles to a charge, which is a reasonable amount if these numbers are to be believed. That's the amount of miles driven by the average US driver in 2 weeks. So if the battery needs to be replaced after 8-10 charges, you're talking once a quarter. If the battery costs $250 and is easily user-replaceable, this isn't a big deal:
My quick, rough math says that if it lost 5% of the original maximum after every charge and the maximum charge of a brand new battery were 500 miles, 10 charges would come out to 3875 miles. If the battery can be produced for $250, that comes out to 15.5 miles to every $1 spent on the battery. Now, consider experiments are in progress to allow free/nearly free recharges, so the cost would really be reduced to just the battery. The current gas price I see out my window is $3.33/gal and my Scion xB gets about 30 MPG.
So, my Scion costs $3.33 to go 30 miles. The Tesla with a $250 battery would cost $2, and not explode the environment.

Sound Blaster E1 is a portable and powerful headphone amplifier with support for studio-quality 600 ohm headphones, audio playback and two headphone jacks for easy music sharing with your friends.
Tired of having to choose specific headphones impedances to match your setup? The Sound Blaster E1 supports headphones with impedances of up to 600 ohms. This means you can match just about any headphones with it. Enjoy a level of audio detail & resolution previously unreachable.
Enjoy your music on the go with jaw-dropping audio fidelity of 106dB Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR). Hear more music, not noise.
Sound Blaster E1 performs up to 25-hrs1 per charge. That's more than a whole day of high fidelity continuous playback!
Sound Blaster E1 is small and light, at only 25 grams.
This means it can be easily carried around in a bag or a pocket, or clipped onto clothing. No longer will you have to haul a headphone amplifier the size of a brick to enjoy better audio.
Sharing your music is easy with the Sound Blaster E1 which comes with two headphone output jacks!
Unlike other shared outputs, the Sound Blaster E1 does not compromise on audio fidelity, so the quality remains the same even when powering two discrete outputs!
With SBX Pro Studio technology and connected to PCs and Macs, you can further adjust what you love to listen, to your individual taste.
Connect the Sound Blaster E1 to your PC or Mac, and fire up Sound Blaster E-Series Control Panel. In the SBX Pro Studio menu, enable SBX Surround to adjust the immersion level of surround sound that you really like. You can also increase the other parameters like Bass so your house rumbles. Simply enable SBX Bass and adjust the level and Crossover Frequency as you prefer.
The built-in microphone provides the additional benefit of using your normal headphones for conversations over the phone. When connected to PCs and Macs via USB, you can activate the CrystalVoice Technology, a suite of enhancements that reduces noise and provides for clearer conversations.
1 Actual battery life will vary with use and volume settings.
Onboard audio often relies on low-quality DACs (digital-to-analogue converters) and we found the E1 improved the audio quality of the systems we tested it on, including desktops and laptops. Pleasingly there was barely any hiss and no stutters when initially playing music, as can be the case with other external sound cards.
Sound Blaster E1
The Creative SoundBlaster E1 DAC is a very versatile product in a small diminutive package. I seriously have only praise for the device. Good battery life, excellent sound quality, portable dimensions, dual headphone outs, Regarding the cons, I have yet to find any.
Sound Blaster E1
Tonally the Sound Blaster E1 is a clean sounding amp with an added touch of warmth and reasonable levels of dynamics with sensitive or easy to drive headphones and IEM's.
Sound Blaster E1
Works well. The volume slider is useful for adjusting the sound output without having to fumble with my device controls. Not yet plugged into my computers to try the sound blaster yet.
It is definitely the better amp at this price range. Value for money!
The sound blaster is perfect for use with smartphone and works brilliantly as a portable amplifier.

Good Agency Principles – Lessons for Market and Competition Authorities
Speaker: Annetje Ottow, Professor Public Economic Law, University of Utrecht
Date: Tuesday 20 October, 13.00-14.30
Location: TW2.1.02
In this talk, Ottow will outline five principles that are fundamental to the framework of agency design and actions, namely legality (L), independence (I), transparency (T), effectiveness (E) and responsibility (R). These LITER principles also offer important guidance for those actors responsible for reviewing agencies' actions. This talk will outline these principles and then illustrate them with examples from the Netherlands and the UK. By examining key processes against the LITER principles, this talk therefore contributes to wider 'how to regulate agencies' debates.
Annetje Ottow is Professor of Public Economic Law and Dean of the Faculty of Law, Economics & Governance at the University of Utrecht. Her research focuses on market regulation and regulators. Since 2013, she has also ben non-executive director to the board of the UK Competition and Markets Authority.
From Elites' Protection of Banking Interests to 'Capture at a Distance': A Historical Analysis of Banking Politics and Regulation in Switzerland, c.a. 1920-2008
Speaker: Leon Wansleben, Assistant Professor of Sociology, LSE
Date: Tuesday 10 November, 13.00-14.30
Location: KSW 2.13
In this talk, Leon Wansleben will argue for a social space perspective on banking regulation, which promises to facilitate a more profound understanding of the structures and cultural norms governing actions and decision making within the semi-public spheres, where regulation is mainly conducted. This theoretical framework is then used for studying how the establishment and consolidation of a semi-public regulatory sphere in Switzerland created the social conditions, under which favourable rules for banks could be written, stabilised, and protected.
Leon Wansleben is Assistant Professor of Sociology at the London School of Economics. His research combines economic, political sociology and the sociology of knowledge. Leon's most recent work studies how central banking in Switzerland and the UK has transformed since the 1970s as a result of interrelated macro-developments (financialization, de-politicisation of economic policies) and organisational change in central banks.

N.W.A. Planning Reunion Tour With Eminem
By Jeremy Gordon on July 22, 2015 at 1:19 p.m. EDT

The N.W.A. biopic Straight Outta Compton comes out August 14. To promote the film, Dr. Dre and Ice Cube did an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, where it was revealed that an N.W.A. reunion tour involving Eminem is in the works. "We don't have anything settled yet with everyone's schedules," said Universal Pictures chairman Donna Langley. "But we think it can create a lot of buzz."

Aero is a much-loved chocolate worldwide and is renowned for its unique bubbly texture.
2010 saw the brand celebrate its 75th birthday. Launched in the 1930s Aero was originally going to be called Airways to reflect the vogue for jet travel at the time.
By 1936, Aero had reached New York and is now also available in Canada and Australia. It was one of the first products promoted by Rowntree® primarily on the strength of the brand, rather than the company name.
In the 1970s Aero peppermint bar was launched and is now the most successful flavour variant for the brand.
2011 saw the launch of Aero biscuit, a delicious combination of Aero bubbly chocolate and crunchy biscuit bubbles, all wrapped up in smooth milk chocolate. This incredibubble biscuit is bursting with bubbly taste and all for 99 calories per biscuit.

Venus in Fur: Provocative, complex and pretty close to perfect
|Report an Error
Share via Email
It's sexy, sophisticated and side-splittingly funny.
Those are just a few of the words that come to mind when describing Venus in Fur, the play by David Ives that has launched the current season at Canadian Stage in fine style.
Everything about this production is pretty damn close to perfect and if I were you, I'd book my tickets immediately.
And if I were Carly Street, whose performance in the title role generates more star power than I've seen in this city in ages, I'd start preparing my acceptance speeches for award season right now. She's that good.
Not many plays can generate waves of laughter along with unsettling ripples of erotic provocation. This one not only does both but achieves a trifecta in also giving you lots of unsettling thoughts to take home.
Don't get me wrong. Venus in Fur is more than mere confectionary, although its outer layer of fluffy vanilla delight gives way to something darker and much more satisfying when you get deep inside.
Plot? Simple, but complex. Playwright-director Thomas is having auditions for his latest play, based on the famed erotic German novel, Venus in Furs, which kind of serves as The Book of Common Prayer for sado-masochism.
At the end of a frustrating day in which no woman has come up to Thomas's unrealistic (and stunningly sexist) expectations, lighting flashes and a kooky young woman bursts onto Debra Hanson's perfect set: Dr. Frankenstein's lab masquerading as a rehearsal hall.
This unexpected visitor not only shares the same first name (Vonda) of the play's heroine, but she's inexplicably gotten a copy of the full script and knows it by heart, although she claims to have only read it on the subway.
From that intriguing beginning, things take off rapidly and you'd be well advised to fasten your seatbelts, because, as Bette Davis says in All About Eve, "It's going to be a bumpy night."
I thought about the Davis film during Venus in Fur, because it too features an aspiring actress who will do anything to get a role. There are also echoes of One Touch of Venus, where a statue of the goddess comes to life and even the movie, Mannequin, where Kim Cattrall becomes the classical love symbol via a department store dummy.
But Venus in Fur is far more provocative than these other works and the allusions Ives makes are more likely to include The Bacchae, that play about sexual passion unleashed to cause destruction.
I must confess I avoided the show during its recent Broadway run. The reviews made it sound too cutely clever and its Tony Award-winning star, Nina Arianda, hadn't really impressed me in other appearances.
But I'm pretty sure that nothing about that production could have been better than what we're lucky enough to have on display here.
Jennifer Tarver's laser-sharp direction illuminates every element of the script to perfection and makes her actors look terrific.
Rick Miller is best known for shows like MacHomer where he plays dozens of characters. Here he plays just one, but gives him a multiplicity of levels. The arrogant man-child who's secretly crying out to be dominated by a powerful woman isn't easy to play but Miller does it beautifully.
Of course, he does have the sizzling Carly Street to partner him. Street has given some great performances (Intimate Apparel, Bloodless), but she's always seem constrained by her material, waiting to break out.
The character of Vonda unlocks the wealth of talent inside her. She's stunningly attractive one moment, sublimely klutzy the next. She mocks the idea of herself as sexual image, then makes you helpless before her erotic power. Come to think of it, that's what Marilyn Monroe did.
As Street and Miller take the play to its mind-blowing, X-rated conclusion, you'll be with them every step of the way.
Spend the night with Venus in Fur. It's one hookup you won't regret.

Ask Better Homes & Gardens
Experts and BHG readers answer.
Expertssee all experts
Choosing the right mulch/bedding coverage for winter
How do you choose the best mulch not only for finishing your garden, but for protecting your perinnials over winter in zone 4? I have thought about cocoa beans and I would like a dark brown mulch to compliment my house, but I do need to think about putting to bed, my garden in Wisconsin. Thanks! Reedsburg Wisconsin
Choose a mulch that looks good to you, has a reasonable cost, and that won't mat down. In your area, cocoa bean mulch tends to be expensive, but is attractive, and if piled several inches deep would provide winter protection, too. You might consider colored bark mulch that has been stained dark brown to match or complement the colors on your house. Usually bark mulch is less expensive.

LAS VEGAS (AP) -- Brandon Heath had a career-high 37 points and
Marcus Slaughter added 17 Saturday night to lead San Diego State to
an 81-73 win against UNLV.
Heath had 23 of his points in the second-half as the Aztecs
(8-7, 2-0 Mountain West Conference) built a 12-point lead. Chris
Manker added 13 points.
San Diego State has won two straight road games to begin the
conference season undefeated, and has won three straight overall.
UNLV (7-7, 0-2) pulled within three, 61-58, with 9:18 to play
after a 10-0 run that was sparked by a pair of 3-pointers from
Michael Umeh.
But San Diego State was never rattled and Heath was perfect on
11 attempts from the free-throw line down the stretch.

OnBoardSUP Yoga
OnBoardSUP Yoga classes are traditional Yoga classes taught on the water on floating boards. Your mat is a stand up paddle board; the world is your studio and all the elements have been invited – sun, wind, water and seals… Enjoy learning while adapting to the motion of the board, the continuous challenge to balance, the instant instability created by minor energy and weight shifts, and the focus required to ground while afloat. Change is the only constant in life. On the water we learn to flow and enjoy the ride!
Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 9:00 am
Summer Scheule starts June 1st with classes 4 days a week!
OnBoardSUP Fitness
After easily learning the basics of Stand Up Paddling, students train in intervals for more of a Cardio workout. We'll add core exercises on the board to our morning workout. Using many standard land exercises you will be amazed at the benefit of doing them while balancing on the board. A series of classes is suggested for maximum results. All levels welcome.
Cost (board rental included)
$30.00 individual class
$270 for 10 classes
$480 for 20 classes

Dr. Lorraine Garkovich, professor of community and leadership development at University of Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service, led last week's Bedford Rotary Club discussion on future ideas for the city's community activities center.
For the past few months we've been taking care of our youngest daughter's two cats, Mohawk and Target, while our daughter spends some time with my sister in California.
They're both gray tabby cats, each about 10 years old.
My husband calls Mohawk "Hawkeye" or "Hawk" and I've nicknamed Target "the weasel" because he's long and he slinks through the house like I imagine a weasel would.
Lately, we've noticed another cat hanging around, white with butterscotch coloring.

"Finding Kind" to focus on bullying and experiences of girls and women
A screening and discussion on the documentary "Finding Kind," which focuses on bullying and the experiences of girls and women, will be held at 6:30 p.m. Feb. 23, in Freeman Auditorium in the HUB-Robeson Center.
Annual report offers snapshot of U.S. college students' mental health, needs
The Center for Collegiate Mental Health (CCMH), founded by and housed at Penn State's Counseling and Psychological Services, Thursday (Feb. 5) released its sixth annual report, which describes more than 100,000 college students seeking mental health treatment at 140 colleges and universities. Easily the largest and most representative of its kind, the report summarizes trends in college student mental health during the last six years. Among its findings, the report indicates that rates of self-injury and suicidal thoughts are on the rise.
Counseling and Psychological Services awarded continuing accreditation
Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS), a unit of Student Affairs, has recently received continuing accreditation from the International Association of Counseling Services Inc. (IACS). As a result of a review of its mission, programs and services, IACS cited CAPS for the array of services that "are an integral part of the educational mission of the institution, supporting the mission in a variety of ways, through consultation, teaching, preventive and developmental interventions, and treatment." CAPS was recognized for the "high quality of your services," and was noted for launching the innovative Show You Care campaign to impact the campus culture and environment. IACS also cited the center for its integral role in the University's recovery efforts in the aftermath of the sexual abuse scandal by providing extensive outreach interventions for the campus community on sexual abuse, sexual assault, and child sexual abuse awareness and prevention.
Penn State CAPS creates group for male survivors of abuse
Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) at Penn State is offering a new group this fall for male students who have had unwanted, abusive or confusing sexual experiences at some point in their lives, which may still be affecting them. Research shows that healing from sexual manipulation or abuse is facilitated by speaking about what happened and connecting with others who have had similar experiences in a supportive environment.
Center for Women Students, CAPS aid female and male violence survivors
Peggy Lorah wants Penn State students to know that men have an important place at the Center for Women Students. "Although most victims of sexual and relationship violence are female, men also encounter abuse directly and indirectly, and we have always seen male victims at the Center for Women Students," said Lorah, the center's director and a licensed professional counselor. As Sexual Assault Awareness Month and Child Abuse Prevention Month draws to a close, the staff of the Center for Women Students and Counseling and Psychological Services emphasize that awareness -- and action -- to help prevent and treat both female and male survivors of abuse are part of their ongoing, daily efforts.

Recent news headlines across the United States have shed light on mental health concerns among teens and young adults in distress -- whether questioning their sexual orientation or dealing with an unhealthy relationship -- where others resorted to bullying, harassment and other violence against them. Experts from Penn State's Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) and the Center for Collegiate Mental Health (CCMH) answered questions about the effects of peer bullying and discrimination, and what college students and their friends and loved ones can do to support students who may be demonstrating signs of distress, anxiety or depression.
