San Theodoros is a fictional country in The Adventures of Tintin, the comics series by Belgian cartoonist Hergé. It is a banana republic under the yoke of military government located in Latin America. San Theodoros is depicted in The Broken Ear and Tintin and the Picaros, and is referred to in The Seven Crystal Balls and The Red Sea Sharks.
The Spanish invaders founded the city of "Our Lady of Las Dopicos" in 1539, which was actually near Tenuzco, the capital of the Pazteca empire. In the series, the capital had two spelling variations: Los Dopicos and Las Dopicos.
San Theodoros apparently became independent around the early 1830s as a result of the unstated actions of General José Olivaro,[1][2] possibly similar to those of Simón Bolívar or José de San Martín. Endless rebellions after Olivaro in the 1840s until 1930s made San Theodoros have the most number of presidents in history.
During the The Broken Ear, San Theodoros and its hostile neighbor Nuevo Rico go to war over the area of Gran Chapo (grand chapeau, "Big Hat") in 1937—an allusion to the Chaco War fought by Bolivia and Paraguay over Gran Chaco from 1932–1935. It was thought that the area was custodian of large oil reserves, so a war sparked in the area. The Chapo War, accidentally started by Colonel Tintin,[3][4] was short, lasting only a few weeks at most,[5][6] resulting in a stalemate. It is eventually revealed that the notion of the presence of oil in the area was incorrect.[7][8]
Military coups and counter-coups of General Alcazar and General Tapioca have followed each other with regularity[9][10]—and soldiers switch sides every time. In fact, revolution seems like a tradition in San Theodoros, as evidenced in Tintin and the Picaros, where it is said that mass executions after a revolution by firing squads is a tradition. A San Theodoran firing squad consists of six soldiers.
In The Red Sea Sharks, General Alcazar is seen in exile, having been deposed again by his rival. Alcazar is now negotiating for arms sales by this time.
The latest information about the country is from 1976 when General Alcazar, now supported by the International Banana Company, ousted General Tapioca during a carnival in an unusually bloodless coup. His guerrillas, collectively known as the Picaros, wore carnival outfits during the operation. Tintin and his associates had their minor part in the proceedings, although Tintin concocted the plan, and insisted that there be no bloodshed. After the coup General Alcazar renamed the capital from Tapiocapolis to Alcazaropolis after himself.
Determining the location of the country is difficult, given the conflicting references in the books. The capital, Los Dopicos, is shown in The Broken Ear as having a seaport, whereas in Tintin and the Picaros, it appears to be inland. It is possible that the capital's situation is similar to that of San Salvador, El Salvador, where the inland downtown area and coastal suburbs are separated by a small mountain. In the TV series, at the beginning of The Broken Ear when the museum is closed and the janitor was dusting the exhibits and whistling, it was shown that there was a map in the museum that San Theodoros and Nuevo Rico is somewhere near Guyana, bordering Venezuela and Brazil. In Tintin and the Picaros, the Paris Flash report clearly claims that the country is, as a matter of fact, in South America, since Bianca Castafiore reportedly "continued her brilliant progress through South America", after successfully visiting Ecuador, Colombia and Venezuela, and is to visit San Theodoros. In the very same book, Captain Haddock, on an attempt to call General Tapioca, says "Hello, International? Give me South America... Tapiocapolis... General Tapioca!" which lies as yet another proof that the country is located in South America. The Bibaro indigenous tribe seems to be inspired by the Jivaros of Ecuador, another pointer to South America.
The country has a few magnificent Paztec pyramids in Trenxcoatl, including one called Hotuatabotl featured in Tintin and the Picaros. (Paztec is a pun merging Aztec with pastèque, watermelon. The names of the pyramids, puns on "trench coat" and "hot water bottle" respectively, are meant to look like Nahuatl, e.g. the Aztec god Quetzalcoatl.) In the jungle areas of the country live the Indian tribes of Bibaro (pun of Latin bibere, "to drink", and possibly a reference to the Jivaros of Ecuador with which they share the habit of creating shrunken heads) and Arumbajo (or Arumbaya).
Local businesses[edit]
- The central bank is called Banco de la Nación.
- The national airline is SANTAERO.
- The state lottery is called Loteria Naciónal.
People and culture[edit]
Most of the population seems to be humble and poor, as depicted in Tintin and the Picaros. The national drink is aguardiente, as said in The Broken Ear. They are festive people, having their own carnival celebrated at the capital, Los Dopicos, from February 22–24 every year. The most visible honor bestowed in San Theodoros, as shown in Tintin and the Picaros, is the Order of San Fernando.
The Paztecas are people who came together and formed Pazteca Empire. They were highly developed with respect to their neighbors. They were great architects and astronomers. They built numerous temples and palaces. They were on to agriculture, in which successful applied methods of cultivation, trade and, through its excellent roads. In addition, a heavy toll charged to Bíbaros and Arumbayas in exchange for peace.
The Bíbaros and Arumbayas are South American tribes that were long living with neighbor Pazteca Empire. They survived by hunting and foraging. They lived in simple huts and were under the leadership of a chief.
With the Arumbayas lives the English explorer Ridgewell, who tries to teach them golf.[11][12] In the English books, they speak Cockney English, but it is written in such a way that it looks meaningless upon a casual glance. (One example: "Cohrluv ahduk! Ai tolja tahitta ferlip inbaul intada oh'l! Andatdohn meenis ferlip ineer oh'l!" instead of "Cor love a duck! I told you to hit the flippin' ball into the hole! And I don't mean his flippin' earhole!"[11]) In the original French, the Arumbaya language seems to be another incarnation of Hergé's favourite Brussels dialect (Marols).[12][13]
The Spanish colonists saw San Theodoros being rich in chocolate, coffee, corn, and gold. Oil reserves in the country were never proved. The economy, in the national sense, was controlled by rich foreign firms, causing poverty to citizens. As of 1970, the estimated GNP (Gross National Product) stood at $45.0 million, and the per capita at a measly $11. Slow economic growth characterized the entirety of Tapioca's three terms. Alcazar's return to power and a quick stabilization of politics in 1976 paved way for increase in tourism potential and an increase of GNP to $306 million.
An interesting detail is the ridiculous proliferation of colonels; in The Broken Ear story, the army of San Theodoros initially had 3487 colonels but only 49 corporals during Alcazar's regime.[14][15] The entire number of troops deployed by the armed forces possibly stands at approximately 44,900[citation needed] men during Alcazar's first term and should have been larger during Tapioca's dictatorship. San Theodoros also appears to suffer from the lack of equipment among its troops, as they can be seen wearing a variety of at least eight ammunition pouches and tunics, of varying type and colour. This lasted only during every civil war. The army appears to have armoured vehicles at its disposal, along with MG08 heavy machine guns, Vickers machine guns, Mannlicher-type rifles, Mil Mi-1 helicopters and (presumably) artillery, around 95 of them, along with anti-tank guns like the Canon de 75 modèle 1897, 72 of which Alcazar bought in preparation for the Chapo war.[16][17]
San Theodoros appears to have a navy and air force, but little is seen of them. There could have been at least 10 major navy ships and 40 aircraft. The army later on appears to be armed with Beretta AR-70 rifles and wears German style stahlhelms. The army could also have an arsenal of tanks, approximately 50. At one time under General Tapioca, San Theodoros enjoys close military cooperation with fascist Borduria, another fictional country in the Tintin universe, which would explain the style of its military uniform and its munitions. Tapioca's symbol can be compared to the moustache of the Bordurian dictator Marshal Kûrvi-Tasch. After General Alcazar returns to power, some military units are depicted clad in guerrilla-style uniforms.
In The Broken Ear, both San Theodoros and its warring neighbour Nuevo Rico buy arms from the same arms dealer, Basil Bazarov,[18][19] a character based on Basil Zaharoff.

Unemployment Surprise
Byline: Alfred Tella, SPECIAL TO THE WASHINGTON TIMES
The spike in the unemployment rate from 5.7 percent in July to a five-year high of 6.1 percent in August left forecasters with egg on their faces. No change or a slight uptick had been expected.
Even with the 84,000 August drop in nonfarm payroll jobs, the eighth monthly job decline in a row, last month's jump in unemployment was out of proportion to the weakness in employment. There are lags and catch-ups in economic data, so one month doesn't tell the story. A closer look shows the employment-unemployment relationship has been out of historical whack all year. Insofar as economic forecasters are empiricists who rely on past behavior for guidance, recent underestimates of joblessness are understandable.
Since the beginning of the year, employer-reported payroll jobs have dropped by more than a half million while unemployment has risen by a surprising 1.8 million. Total employment, as measured by household survey, is down by 771,000.
In the past, when the job market has deteriorated, labor force participation has also declined. Some people who lost their jobs saw no point continuing a futile search and some who would have liked to enter the work force postponed doing so until prospects improved. Since government statistics count as unemployed only jobless people looking for work, the decline in labor force participation dampened the rise in the unemployment rate.
What's unusual about this downturn is the larger number of people who are either starting or persisting in a job search despite the dimmer prospects of finding work. They have pushed up the unemployment rate to above normal levels relative to total job losses.
Given the drop this year in the percentage of the working-age population employed, the labor force participation rate (the proportion of the population in the work force) would have been expected to decline from 66.1 percent in January to 65.8 percent in August, based on previous experience. But the participation rate hasn't declined - it was 66.1 percent last month. That means 800,000 more people are in the labor force and unemployed than past relationships in the data would have predicted.
The unemployment rate under more normal circumstances would have been 5.6 percent last month instead of 6.1 percent as reported - a big difference with political implications. The estimated gap between rates was smaller in July, 0.3, as previously reported on this page. If rising unemployment gets further out of synch with employment, it could raise new questions about the meaning of the unemployment data. …

WASHINGTON, D.C.June 24, 2013The Sabin Vaccine Institute today announced the launch of the newly-formed International Association of Immunization Managers (IAIM). With the support of a five-year grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, IAIM's objective is to help drive the achievement of national, regional and international immunization goals, including those in the Global Vaccine Action Plan (GVAP), by fostering forward-thinking and superior management of immunization programs. The association's governing body, the IAIM ad hoc Governing Council, is holding its inaugural meeting today in Washington, D.C.
Tremendous gains have been made in immunizations over the last 40 years. However, challenges remain and will increase in complexity as new vaccines are added to immunization programs. Immunization managers play a critical role in addressing these challenges, as they are the ones who must skillfully manage and integrate each of the elements of a successful immunization program: cost-effective and dependable procurement processes, reliable funding, an effective cold chain, consistent monitoring of vaccine safety and efficacy, effective surveillance systems, productive and proactive communication with the public, and well-trained health workers.
"How well an immunization manager performs his or her job can make the difference in whether the immunization program succeeds; yet these professionals often are not provided with the opportunities for training, peer-to-peer discussion and exchange and skill-building that they need to advance immunization programs," said Dr. David Salisbury, President of the newly-formed Association's ad hoc Governing Council and Director of Immunisation in the United Kingdom's Department of Health. "Therefore, it is both welcome and timely that we now have an international association for immunization program managers that can equip them with the right tools and professional network for the job."

With only a small penalty for abstaining, the numbers for signing up not only don't add up — they're absurd. Here's one of the supposedly attractive deals: "One option available only to people under 30 is a so-called catastrophic policy that kicks in after a $6,350 annual deductible. In Monroe County, you can buy that policy on the New York State of Health exchange for as low as $131 a month for single coverage."
Over fifteen hundred a year for a sixty-three hundred plus deductible? What healthy thirty year old would waste his or her money?
Who invented this plan? Certainly not Obama or Pelosi, neither of whom was paying close attention, I would bet. (Pelosi admitted she wasn't. All Obama wanted was something to put his name next to, something that sounded vaguely "progressive.")
I am writing this before Obama speaks on Monday, so have little idea of what he is going to say. But his only choice is to put his best face on the dreadful enrollment figures. Otherwise, he has to announce a delay in the program — the very thing Republicans shut the government over! (He'll never do that. It's too easy to point out.)
So what should Republicans do? First, as Hippocrates said, do no harm. Stop attacking each other. Follow Ronald Reagan's prescription about never speaking ill of fellow Republicans. That kind of behavior turns off voters.
Never cease to point out the problems of Obamacare, but do it with humility and grace, maybe a little humor. Trust me — the public gets it. They're supposed to enroll in the damn thing.
Also, it might be helpful to come up with a few market-oriented suggestions of your own to improve healthcare. But don't be revolutionary about it. Keep it simple. Be specific and targeted.
And then keep smiling as you sweep up the winnings — in the elections of 2014 and 2016.

The talk will bring local and national experts together to discuss the history of policing and racial profiling. Organizer Marc Levitt is moderating the panel. "The questions I'm going to be asking are about who gets policed, why they get policed, what the history of policing is, and what methods are being considered for policing in the future." Levitt says the panel on race and police is part of a series on urban issues at URI. The discussion begins at 7 p.m. Protest Expected At Kelly Lecture By Elisabeth Harrison • Oct 29, 2013 Students and community groups plan to demonstrate outside the Brown University lecture hall where New York Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly is slated to speak this afternoon. Kelly has overseen New York's controversial "stop-and-frisk" policing strategy. The demonstrators say they believe the policy amounts to racial profiling, and they are also angered by what they call Kelly's "widespread surveillance" of the Muslim community.

Certificate in Gerontology ProgramOverviewAging is one of the most dynamic sectors of health care and public health.
The number of Americans over the age of 65 is anticipated to grow by some four hundred percent over the next 50 years. The sociodemographics alone point to growing opportunities in the aging field for those with an interest in research, policy, improved public health practice or management. On a global level, most of the growth of the aging population is occurring in the developing world.

Nicki Minaj's new single "Lookin' Ass N—a" quenched the thirst of some rap fans who've been pining for more bars from the YMCMB star, but the track's accompanying cover art is attracting attention for all the wrong reasons.
Nicki dropped the video for "Lookin Ass N—a" on Wednesday, and no one's mad at that barely there lace outfit she's sporting, but her decision to use Malcom X on the cover art is another story.
The artwork features an image of the civil-rights activist holding a rifle and peeking out the window of his Queens, New York, home. The photo of Malcom X reportedly appeared in the 1964 issues of Ebony and Life magazines just a year before he was assassinated. Nicki shared the cover on her own Instagram account this week, but it has since been deleted, making it unclear if it was official artwork, or simply a spotlight on fan art.
If it is real, however, and Nicki was hoping to pay her respects somehow, that was lost on those who took to Twitter to express their disappointment and outrage that Malcom X's image was placed next to such a provocative song title.
I'm trying sooo hard to make this connection with this Nicki Minaj song, video and cover art but I'm coming up short , any explanations ?
— Megz Kelli (@gimmiekissmegz) February 13, 2014
"Wayne used Emmett Till's murder for a dumb line. Nicki Minaj uses Malcolm X's image as cover art for a 'Lookin Ass N—a' song. Buffoonery," @ClauGasol wrote, while, @destinylamyaa added, "This generation doesn't care about black history, that's why they're cool with Nicki Minaj art cover. All they wanna be is cool smh."
"I seriously thought that Nicki Minaj cover art of Malcolm X was a joke…something y'all Twitter people did," @Miami_Chica chimed in.
Looks like @km_mixedlove appreciated it though. "I think Nicki Minaj's cover art is clever & funny," she wrote. "Lol you guys are all talking about it. She did something right."
I think Nicki Minaj's cover art is clever & funny. Lol you guys are all talking about it. She did something right.
— stella. (@km_mixedlove) February 13, 2014
Nicki Minaj hasn't commented on the uproar as yet, but some fans are extra upset about the timing of the release. "WOW. I heard the song w/o seeing the cover art. Nicki Minaj used Malcolm X for THAT song DURING #BlackHistoryMonth? C'mon love….," @yusufyuie wrote.
Why did Nicki Minaj use Malcolm X for her cover art? Who gave that the green light? Smh

"Lookin Ass N—a" is set to appear on the upcoming YMCMB compilation.

The foundation provides respite to families dealing with the disease, such as tickets to a baseball or football game, and also provides financial aid ranging from meeting mortgage and utility payments to other expenses.

Ebola affected health workers to receive 'best care': WHO
The World Health Organisation (WHO) Sunday said it will ensure its Ebola-affected health workers in Sierra Leone receive the best care possible, including the option of medical evacuation to another care facility if necessary.
Since the beginning of the international response to the outbreak in March, WHO has deployed nearly 400 people from across the organisation and from partners in the Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network to help respond to the disease in four west African countries, Xinhua reported.
According to WHO, the Ebola virus is spread through contact with bodily fluids and people giving care or working around infected patients are known to be a high-risk group.
Earlier in the day, Britain evacuated its national, who contracted the Ebola virus in Sierra Leone, by flying him back to Britain on a Royal Air Force jet.
The unidentified patient, who worked as a healthcare worker, had tested positive for Ebola virus infection last week.
Last week, as many as 113 new cases of Ebola virus disease as well as 84 deaths were reported from Guinea, Liberia, Nigeria and Sierra Leone, the WHO said.
The toll in Guinea, where the epidemic started, is 406, while in Sierra Leone, 392 have succumbed to the haemorrhagic fever. Nigeria has witnessed five deaths so far.
An outbreak of Ebola virus disease began in Guinea in December 2013, leading to an epidemic in West Africa after it spread to Liberia, Sierra Leone and Nigeria.

We talk a lot about social media around here. And there's good reason for that. We want to provide useful information that can enhance your experience on each and every social media outlet. Whether that's using Vine as a part of your social media campaign to increasing the amount of followers you have on Instagram, we try our best to make sure that you go away with a better understanding of how to optimize social media.
Sometimes you also have to take a look at the bad.
It's not to be mean or place ourselves on a pedestal. It's to provide you with examples of mistakes that you should never make on social media. While it may give you 15 minutes of fame, it's totally not worth it. You'll spend more time defending yourself than actually doing whatever it is you do. For example, take a look at the following social media fails. They were epic mistakes that will tarnish a brand's name for some time to come.
1. The Epic Amy's Bakery Meltdown
Has there ever been an epic meltdown like that from Scottsdale's Amy's Baking Company? In case you forgot all the shenanigans, here's what happened. Owners Amy and Samy Bouzaglo were featured in a memorable episode of Gordon Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares. While things rarely run smoothly on the series, this was an exceptionally difficult episode. In fact, it was so challenging that Ramsay walked off. But, that's where the journey just begins.
After the episode aired, the couple received a lot of negative feedback, which forced the Bouzaglos to defend themselves on Facebook. The result? Some of the most legendary and infamous tangents of all-time. To make matters worse, they kept also tried to defend their restaurant on Reddit and Yelp, which only caused another batch of insanity. Eventually, the Bouzalos' even tried to profit from their viral insanity by selling t-shirts and hats. You stay classy Mr. and Mrs. Bouzaglo.
2. Epicurious Promotes Scones After Boston Marathon Bombing
On April 15, 2013 tragedy struck Boston. And, we can all agree that on that particular day it was not the time or place to plug your business. However, cooking site Epicurious didn't get that message. The company thought that they could help their 480,000 Twitter followers cope with the Boston Marathon bombing by sharing recipes for their whole-cranberry scones. Right. Because that's exactly what everyone was thinking at that moment.
3. Kenneth Cole Strikes Again
During the protests in Egypt in 2011, Kenneth Cole thought it would be the perfect time to promote his clothing brand. We get it. He was trying to lighten up the situation. But, the insensitive tweet didn't sit well with people, obviously, and the tweet was deleted. End of story, right? Nope. Fast forward to 2013 and Cole sent out the following tweet during the situation in Syria: "Boots on the ground" or not, let's not forget about sandals, pumps and loafers. #Footwear". Some people never learn.
4. JP Morgan Cancels Twitter Q&A
In theory, this sounded like a great idea. Why not engage consumers via a Q&A session on Twitter? The problem is that people really aren't that fond of major banks right now. So the enlightening Q&A with vice chairman James B. Lee Jr. from JP Morgan became an open invitation for people to vent their frustrations, which in turn, forced the session to be cancelled. In short, don't ever underestimate your social media audience.
5. The Real #mcdstories
Here's another example of a brand just asking for a backlash on social media. It goes all the way back to January 2012 after McDonald's attempted to engage customers through two promoted trends on Twitter: #meetthefarmers and #mcdstories. Instead, the fast food chain received a fury of horror stories about the quality of the food, the treatment from employees, or the sanitary conditions of the restaurants. At least McDonald's quickly realized that the Twitter campaign "did not go as planned".
6. Bad Timing for the American Rifleman
On the morning of July 20, 2012 the journal American Rifleman, which is associated with the National Rifle Association, posted this friendly tweet: "Good morning, shooters. Happy Friday! Weekend plans?" Unfortunately, more details surrounding the tragic shooting at a movie theater in Aurora, CO were being released around the same time. The tweet was most likely pre-scheduled through Hootsuite, but was still seen an inappropriate. Several hours later the tweet and the account were both deleted. Even though this was probably a case of bad timing, if someone had checked the news in the morning this message may have never been sent out.
7. CelebBoutique's Hashtag Fail
Unfortunately, the NRA weren't the only ones to mishandle their Twitter account following the Aurora shooting. Online retailer CelebBoutique wanted to take advantage of the trending topic by posting a promotional tweet with #Aurora. For some reason, no one at the company bothered to see why Aurora was actually trending. An epic PR fail.
8. London Luton Airport Finds Out That Plane Crashes Aren't Amusing
In March 2013, London Luton Airport thought it would be amusing to have some fun with plane crashes. However, the photo that they used for the Facebook post came from a 2005 incident in Chicago where a plane slid off the runway, which resulted in the death of a 6-year-old boy. Hilarious.
9. Kmart's Newton Promotion
Shortly following the horrific shooting in Newton, Connecticut, Kmart made an extremely unwise decision. The retailer attached a promo code in the following tweet: "Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims of this terrible tragedy. #PrayforNewtown #CTShooting#Fab15Toys. Why wouldn't people get upset about this?
10. Pepsi's Voodoo Ronaldo
If you really want to offend people how about creating a voodoo doll version of a beloved sports star and then have said doll's head get crushed on train tracks? Sounds a little vicious, but that's what happened with an ad from Pepsi's Swedish branch in November 2013. Fans in Portugal were not happy with the ad depicting soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo in this manner and they formed an anti-Pepsi Facebook group. The group, which gained over 100K fans in only one day, was more than enough for Pepsi to pull the ad.
11. Spearmint Rhino's Underage Discovery
The Melbourne branch of strip club chain Spearmint Rhino thought it would be entertaining, or something like that, to have Facebook users guess which performer's baby picture was shared on Facebook in November 2013. Besides being tacky, visitors quickly noticed the date on the screenshoot from the VHS, 1998. That would have made the stripper only 14 years old. That's just wrong on so many different levels.
12. Home Depot's Racist Tweet
We may never know for certain if the infamous 'racist tweet' from Home Depot was actually indeed racist or just plain stupid. But, we do know that someone definitely dropped the ball with this ad. After the Twittersphere blasted Home Depot, the tweet was deleted and someone lost their job.
13. HMV Is Taken Over
Whether you're the one doing the layoffs, or the person receiving the bad news, getting a pink slip is a delicate and private matter. Then again, when some 60 staff members are losing their jobs, it's understandable for people to get upset. And, that's what happened with UK entertainment retailer HMV after rogue employees took over the company's Twitter account. Despite the attempts from senior managers, new posts kept popping up. Not only did HMV handle the mass layoffs poorly, why didn't they lock the account?
14. American Airlines, You Don't Have to Auto-Respond to Everything
There are situations when an auto-tweet, or any type of automatic response is appropriate and acceptable, like if someone just subscribed to a newsletter. But when a customer calls your airline "the largest, sh—iest airline in the world," we don't think that you should automatically be thanking them for their support.
15. Pigalle Goes Off
Pigalle, a restaurant in Boston, was not pleased after a customer ranted on Facebook about her Thanksgiving meal in 2012. Instead of reaching out and not only finding out why the customer was unsatisfied or offering a promise to be better the next time, chef Marc Orfaly overreacted. During his tangent he even told the customer to "go f– herself." Even though both parties have patched things up, that's still some stellar customer service.
16. No Wants to See a Dog Receive CPR
Here's a lesson that Pearl Izumi learned the hard way. Don't ever miss with man's best friend. The sports apparel company created an ad that tried to illustrate how long lasting their shoes were by outlasting a dog. The dog was in such bad shape that CPR was required. This was more than enough to anger the numerous dog lovers out there.
17. Offering 20% Off Clothes Won't Help You Survive a Hurricane
This should be common sense, but you probably should never ever use a devastating natural disaster as an opportunity to run a promotion. But, that's what American Apparel did when the brand offered 20% off to anyone living in states that were affected by Hurricane Sandy.
18. There's a Hurricane, Let's Go To The Gap
Oddly enough, American Apparel wasn't the only retailer to anger everyone affected by Hurricane Sandy. The Gap encouraged people to do some online shopping as the storm approached, instead of you know, preparing to deal with a powerful hurricane. The company eventually removed the tweet and offered apology, if you want to call it that.
19. Defriend People For a Whopper
In 2009. Burger King launched an interesting Facebook contest called the "Whopper Sacrifice." The purpose was for users to remove 10 of their Facebook friends, and in return, they would receive a coupon for a free Whopper. Since Facebook is all about connecting and adding friends, this caused some confusion. Also, since it violated Facebook users' expectation of privacy, Facebook pulled the plug on the campaign.
20. KitchenAid Gets Political
During the first presidential debate in October 2012, President Obama mentioned his grandmother. This angered KitchenAid, who sent out the following tweet to its 24,000 followers: "Obamas gma even knew it was going 2 b bad! She died 3 days b4 he became president. #nbcpolitics." At least the company promptly removed the tweet and issued an apology. It turns out that a member of its team had accidentally posted it from the company handle instead of from their personal account.
21. Entenmann's Found Guilty
During the Casey Anthony verdict in 2011, Entenmann's sent out a tweet stating: "Who's #notguilty about eating all the tasty treats they want." This was either the tasty treat maker having a good time with the controversial verdict or it was completely clueless on the decision. Naturally, there was just a little bit of backlash.
22. Stuck in a Stubsucking Hell Hole
Ticket broker StubHub faced its own social media mishap in 2012 after an anonymous person shared an obscene tweet from the company's account, which included the person calling the company a "stubsucking hell hole." The message was live for about an hour before StubHub deleted it. The company also apologized for the vulgar tweets.
23. Ketchum Has a PR Crisis
How on Earth would a public relations/marketing agency let this happen? In 2011, Ketchum was in Memphis to meet up with one of its biggest clients FedEx. On the morning before the big meeting with FedEx, one of Ketchum's vice presidents had tweeted that he would "die if he had to live in Memphis." Needless today, the Memphis-based company was just a bit upset.
24. Nokia Finally Snaps
In a way you can't fault Nokia for getting a little frustrated. At one time, Nokia was an important player in the mobile phone market, but has since faced tough competition from heavyweights Apple and Samsung. Still, that really isn't an excuse for employees in its New Zealand office to tweet a simple, yet to the point, expletive in November 2013.
25. Chick-Fil-A Creates a Facebook Supporter
During the middle of 2012 Chick-Fil-A faced two infamous battles.The first backlash against the fast food chain occurred after CEO Dan Cathy spoke out firmly against same-sex marriage. That statement resulted in the company's Facebook page receiving a flood of posts that had absolutely nothing to do with its delicious chicken sandwiches.

DANVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Tripp Foy's sing-song chant rang out like a sentimental oldie for die-hard farmers clinging to the old way of selling tobacco, as a small procession of buyers shadowed him down long rows of reddish-brown leaf piled in bales.
Farmers who have spent their lives tending the aromatic crop in their fields find comfort in Foy's rat-a-tat style, part of an auction system that's been all but snuffed out by another way of selling tobacco after years of declining smoking rates.
"It's kind of in our blood," said tobacco farmer Walter Browning. "But I'm about bled out."
This tobacco-belt tradition, once as much a part of Kentucky's fabric as bourbon or horse racing, is fading away — and it's taking the maestros like Foy with it.
"The chant of an auctioneer can sound as good as a song," said Foy, 63, who has spent four decades auctioning tobacco in Kentucky — the nation's top burley producer. "You can walk down a row and you can almost dance to the tune of the sale."
Years ago, multiple auctioneers plied their trade in each of the state's biggest burley markets as sales seasons typically stretched from late autumn until March. The competition for top auctioneers was fierce as warehouse operators looked for any edge to pull in more business from farmers.

Are Your Job Hunting Shoes Stuck in Quicksand?
by Sherri Edwards - Sep, 2015
It's pretty understandable that people often go into a panic when they lose their job. The tough part is helping them remobilize and develop a plan for what happens next, instead of taking wild potshots at job postings in their quest to become reemployed. Many times a candidate gets so focused on "getting a job" that they start to believe they will magically find and secure a job in one stroke. (Imagine a hunter with a spear f...
Do you know why you are unemployed?
by Sherri Edwards - Aug, 2015
If you are thinking this is a dumb question, you may want to think again. Unless you are aware of the circumstances that led to your layoff or termination and are also very clear about your current market value, you'll be unable to craft a strategy for moving forward. Although statistics may show there are more jobs available this year, what you actually do and how you do it will play a significant part in determining whether...
An active professional network is like insurance
by Sherri Edwards - Jul, 2015
In an ever-changing economic market, or riding the wave through industry changes, you just never know when you might need to rely on your professional network to help bail you out of a rough patch. Maintaining a professional network is like having car insurance – it's a pretty big risk to drive without it. Your network is your safety net. And like insurance, it requires an investment that can't lapse. Without it, the costs can...
Procrastination works against you
by Sherri Edwards - Jul, 2015
There will never be more than 24 hours in a day. No matter how much we hope, wish or pray, it just can't happen. The issue with casually brushing something off to do "later," at an undetermined "better time," is that it often becomes assurance it won't get done at all. For many people, procrastination seems like it is done unconsciously, but it really is a conscious decision or choice not to do something. When you make the...
Sometimes you need to step back to get ahead
by Sherri Edwards - Jul, 2015
It happens all the time. A candidate has 8–10 years of experience doing something and wants to change into an entirely new role and new field. The requirements to compete for a senior-level role in the new arena are extremely high and impossible to match when there is no specific evidence of performance in the same function. Although the circumstances may seem the same, being capable and being competitive are two entirely diff...
Be someone people are happy to refer
by Sherri Edwards - Apr, 2015
There are professionals who match people to jobs or business opportunities and others who connect people with similar interests. Professional associations or academic institutions may match mentors with mentees. All around us are opportunities to link people with people, or people to information. The success of these referrals is typically predicated on how much the referring party knows about each of the others. Everyone w...
Non-communication is the new normal
by Sherri Edwards - Mar, 2015
At the risk of severely dating myself or alienating my readers, I'll start with a confession: I still expect people to do what they say they will do. I know, I know, I know. Call me a dreamer. Recently, after a series of disappointments due to people not following through on commitments, I asked someone what they thought about this apparent trend. I was told to "change my expectations." At first, it seemed like a puzzling r...
Interviewing is not all about you
by Sherri Edwards - Feb, 2015
It is surprising that many people still rely on their resume to tell their story for them and spend little time preparing for an interview. The old-school thinking that "the resume will get me in the door and, once there, I'll wing it" is no longer effective. Preparing your answers for the most frequently asked interview questions is a good start, but if you don't know the context of the role you are vying for, or are unawa...
Size Does Matter
by Sherri Edwards - Jan, 2015
Titles don't necessarily reflect the same level of responsibility, nor do they mean the same thing across industries. The context of the positions you have held does/should make a difference to someone who is determining if you are a fit or not. More experience in one area doesn't necessarily make up for a shortcoming in another. The following considerations need to be taken into account when filling a role, from the candidate...
Be Clear About your Goals Before you Interview
by Sherri Edwards - Dec, 2014
Even though times are tough, asking for a job because you are desperate is not a good look. Employers need convincing evidence for investing time and money in you. This requires knowledge of the company and considerable preparation before you speak with them. The old days of winging your way through an interview are long gone. But first, you need to know why you want the job you are pursuing and how it fits into your life plan...

3 arrested after search warrant served at Santa Paula home
Three people were arrested after police served a search warrant at a residence in Santa Paula, authorities said Saturday.
The Ventura County Sheriff's Office said officers served a search warrant about 9 a.m. Friday at a home in the 300 block of North 14th Street and found four handguns, one sawed-off shotgun and several hundred rounds of ammunition.
Felon Cornelio Perez, 29, of Santa Paula, was arrested on suspicion of possession of firearms by a prohibited person, the agency said.
Handguns must be registered in California, and none of those found were registered to Perez or anyone in the household, authorities said.
Elizabeth Perez, 20, of Santa Paula, was arrested on suspicion of possession of methamphetamine, authorities said.
A 27-year-old man from Santa Paula was arrested on suspicion of being under the influence of a controlled substance, authorities said.
All three were booked into county jail, authorities said.
The investigation into the true ownership of the firearms was ongoing.

The Magazine
Rogan's Run
In an uphill battle, the House impeachment manager courts his constituents
Oct 9, 2000, Vol. 6, No. 04 • By MATTHEW REES
Rogan cheerfully acknowledges his uphill struggle. "The race is neck-and-neck," he says, "and I feel great about that." Rogan's standing has improved dramatically since the days just after impeachment. In March, when he and Schiff were on the ballot together in California's open primary, he received 47.3 percent of the total vote. And though Schiff finished with one percent more, Rogan was in clear striking distance.
But complicating Rogan's task is his opponent's veneer of moderation. A 41-year-old former prosecutor in the U.S. attorney's office and a self-proclaimed New Democrat, Schiff was elected to the state Senate in 1996.
He claims to have carved out a record of "bipartisan workmanship," sponsoring bills that a Republican governor, Pete Wilson, signed. And during a recent candidates' forum, held at Pasadena City College, Schiff issued a self-serving plea for more civil politics: "We cannot continue to put people in Congress who believe that political courage simply consists of most belligerently attacking the other side."
This is a backdoor way of criticizing Rogan, whom he described to me as "among the most bitterly partisan members of Congress." He says he's less offended by Rogan's role in impeaching and prosecuting the president than he is by the congressman's "contempt" for those who disagree with him. Schiff has not, however, echoed the liberal line that Clinton's actions were purely private and didn't merit public scrutiny: "He should have been censured in the very strongest terms."
Rogan, though doing little to advertise his impeachment activities, has no regrets about his involvement. "I am more proud to have been a House manager," he told me, "than of anything I have ever done professionally in my life." As for his thoughts about Schiff, he doesn't mince words: "a less than mediocre state senator," "the teachers' union's biggest shill," and a "weasel mouth." What's more, says Rogan, "he portrays me as hating children, seniors, the world, and everything that's good and decent in America."
Rogan, 43, does not, however, fit the conservative stereotype. His parents, a cocktail waitress and a bartender, never married, and he didn't meet his father until he was in his twenties. His grandparents reared him in San Francisco's hardscrabble Mission district, and when they died his great aunt was given custody. She too died before long, at which point he lived with his mother, who was in and out of jail for welfare and credit-card fraud, and his alcoholic stepfather.
By the time he was 16, he'd dropped out of school and was supporting his siblings working in a pizza parlor and selling vacuum cleaners. He eventually earned a high-school equivalency degree, studied at a Bay Area community college, and then graduated from the University of California-Berkeley and UCLA law school. He was a Democrat until 1988, but left the party because of its "bizarre programs offering nostrums to every element in our society except the element of reason."
This forthright manner, on display during the impeachment battle, is one reason Democrats like Garry South, Governor Davis's ace political strategist, describe Rogan as "toast." (George W. Bush's poor standing in California is another.) If that's the price of his plain speaking, Rogan says, so be it: "I'm prepared to lose my reelection, if the cost of being reelected is doing something I believe is wrong."
