HRD investigates the biggest barriers to transforming a culture and how to successfully enact change
Often conduct complained about in the workplace is not actually bullying behaviour
Today (Thursday 7 October) is national R U OK? Day, an initiative designed to prevent suicides by recognising the need to support employee mental wellbeing.
Employers have been encouraged to have conversations with their staff in order to manage stress in the workplace – a topic often brushed under the carpet.
Stress and depression are the largest contributors to lost productivity in Australia, directly costing employers an estimated $10.11 billion a year. In addition, workplace counselling for anxiety and stress has increased 68 per cent and 76 per cent respectively since 2007.
Organisations can participate in RUOK? at Work by encouraging staff to contact anyone who may be struggling and ask "Are you OK?".
In 2009 1.3 million Australians participated with over 650,000 conversations. Over 300 businesses participated – including News Limited, ABC, Lion Nathan, SA Government and NSW Fire Brigades amongst others.
R U OK? at Work has 4 key objectives:
· Help employees feel good about themselves by connecting with, and supporting others.
· Increase connection and support within organisations.
· Through that connection and support, reduce workplace stress and depression.
· Through reducing workplace stress and depression, help reduce Australia's suicide rate.
R U OK? Is an independent, not-for-profit organisation whose purpose is to provide national focus and leadership for ending suicide in Australia by empowering people to make a difference, encouraging open and honest communication and driving real connection.

Building the Herd – Roman MalinikPosted: 12/10/2017 Filed under: Bison, Building the Herd, NIHL Leave a comment
#?? Roman Malinik
Position: Forward
Born: Ostrava, České Slezsko, Czechia
Announced as signed: Basingstoke Gazette, 12th October
So, the trigger was pulled by Doug Sheppard and the import switch has been made. It's a Czech for Czech swap as Jaroslav Cesky is replaced by Roman Malinik.
27 year old Malinik comes to Hampshire after starting the 2017/18 season with Polonia Bytom in the Polish league where he's been scoring at a point per game.
Malinik is a product of the Vitkovice junior system (Vitkovice is a part of Ostrava in the same way that Brighton Hill is a part of Basingstoke) and was quickly making waves. In 2005/06 Malinik was playing with the under 18s, made the odd appearance for the under 20s and played for the Czech under 16 side. The following season as an under 17 player he was regularly between the national championship winning under 18s, under 20s as well as making his senior debut in the Extraliga and playing 12 times for the Czech under 17 side.
It was these performances that saw Malinik catch the attention of scouts overseas and major junior hockey was on the horizon. He entered the CHL import draft in 2007 and was drafted 24th overall by Baie-Comeau Drakkar of the QMJHL (a certain Tomas Karpov was drafted 16th overall by Moose Jaw). Playing alongside future NHL players like David Savard and Gabriel Bourque and future Chelmsford Chieftain Julius Sinkovic, Malinik spent two seasons in Quebec with the Drakkar scoring 43 points in his 121 games. He also earned a call up to the Czech under 20s in his second season.
With the NHL and North American hockey not being the way forward for Malinik, he returned to the Czech Republic and Vitkovice's under 20 side for 2009/10 where he put up 50 points in 48 games as well as making a brief loan appearance for 3rd division side, Frydek-Mistek.
From there, Malinik entered the same routine as many Czech players before him and was loaned to various lower division sides. In the Czech Republic, to play for a club outside of the one where you trained as a youngster requires a "loan fee" to be paid. This is what sees so many Czech talents end up with so many loans on their hockey CVs; clubs won't pay for a full transfer and will instead loan players from clubs in higher divisions which is a lower cost way of getting players in. The parent club also has immediate injury cover if needed. The system is also why so many players come abroad.
Malinik made some more appearances for Vitkovice's under 20 side as well as with Frydek-Mistek but spent the better part of 2010 till 2013 in the Czech 1. Liga (their 2nd tier) with Dukla Jihlava scoring 34 points in 118 games.
After that he spent the next two seasons with Havlickuv Brod where his scoring numbers were far more impressive. Malinik scored 58 points in 94 games, being named captain in his second season. He also made a brief reappearance for Jihlava during this time.
2015/16 was Malinik's last season in his homeland. Playing the majority of the campaign with AZ Havirov, Malinik scored a respectable 24 points in 50 games but also finally ended up back in the Vitkovice side playing 2 regular season games and 4 games in the relegation round.
Malinik decided to spread his wings and wanted to head abroad. His first stop abroad could have gone better as he agreed to join up with the Manchester Phoenix. Continually short benched and playing out of the infinitely too small rink at Blackpool, Malinik managed to still put up decent numbers with 17 goals and 30 points in 28 games. Malinik, along with all the Phoenix's imports were released before the New Year and the Phoenix's inevitable demise and he made his way to Poland and Polonia Bytom with whom he claimed a bronze medal at the end of the season.
Malinik started this campaign with Bytom scoring 4 goals and 4 assists in 8 games before electing to come to Basingstoke.
How would you describe yourself as a hockey player?
I'm a power forward – I like to play a high energy game but score goals too.
Interview with Nicholas Bevan (@NW2Hatter) for Manchester Phoenix match programme, October 2016
The Bison's big struggle so far this season has been attacking production and direction going forward at times. Malinik, whom Sheppard remembers as a hard working player does have a history of being able to put points on the board.
For those of us who remember that Manchester Phoenix side before the fire went out, they were not good. The majority if not nearly all the offence went through the imports which might be why Malinik got as many points as he did. However it's also dependant on him and his linemates being able to generate that offence. To score 30 points in any period of time with that Phoenix side is no mean achievement.
Malinik is a bigger body than Cesky and I expect him to go straight onto that line with Aaron Connolly and Josh Smith that did so well last weekend to give that line a more physical edge. Malinik also adds a different dimension to the second powerplay unit and I wonder if we see him take Cesky's place on the left side half boards or whether he floats up to the point more for the big shot.
Malinik describing himself as a power forward could be the answer that the Bison's attack has been looking for. The style that Doug Sheppard likes to play with the Bison has always been better with that player not afraid to drive the net. Joe Greener, Joe Rand, Derek Roehl (to a point) have all been in that import mould of people who go to the net and get in the face of the netminder. With Connolly doing it from one wing and now potentially Malinik driving from the other side, that's a good option for the Herd as a contrast to the Karpov and Antonov combination of using their skills to remove the netminder from their shorts.
Either way, we're certainly in for a change in the way the Bison attack. With Karpov and Antonov having seemingly found their scoring boots last weekend, the addition of a proven point scorer to the line-up can hopefully spark some more dynamic play from the Herd. We live in hope.
Welcome to Hampshire, Roman.
Thanks to Tomas Karpov for an explanation of the Czech loan system.
Goodnight and Good Luck – Jaroslav CeskyPosted: 11/10/2017 Filed under: Bison, Good Night and Good Luck, NIHL 1 Comment
With changes already afoot with the Bison, coach Doug Sheppard appears to have pulled the trigger on further roster moves with the release of Jaroslav Cesky.
What have we lost?
Whilst the initial prediction from this site was that Cesky would be used as a third line veteran mentor role, he was instead used as a second line, second powerplay unit focus for the offence. The big question was could he still go and the answer, I think, for the most part was yes.
Cesky was arguably the Herd's best player through the first few weeks of the season until the Herd suffered from their real offensive output issues. He wasn't the fastest but he seemed to arguably be the sharpest. In the same way that people wondered about the signing of Rene Jarolin when he first came in, Cesky looked better than people expected. He was setting things up, he was scoring, he looked good.
Where has he gone?
At the moment, nowhere; it's a straight goodbye and thanks for everything to end Cesky's second stint. A personal feeling is that he joins up with his former coach Jeremy Cornish at Streatham but that's pure speculation on my part.
Who replaces him?
The release says that Doug Sheppard is in the process of finalising another deal. Rumours abound as to whom but we'll just wait until the word comes through.
Final thoughts:
Let's get this clear right off the bat; Jaroslav Cesky hasn't done anything wrong. I maintain that Cesky has actually played well. He's exceeded my expectations as to what we were going to get out of the 39 year old. If we're looking at a top 5 Bison players so far this season, I think Cesky is in that discussion.
The issue is that the Bison needed to make a change to generate more offence. Doug Sheppard wants to make the change to get more offence and with there being a wider market of available imports than free scoring British wingers at the moment and with Tomas Karpov and Vanya Antonov finding their feet together, it sadly meant that there was only one player who was going to have to make way and that's Cesky.
2 goals and 2 assists in 9 competitive games would be an easy target to point to but that doesn't take into context how the Bison have played and how he has been used. Of course Vanya Antonov has more goals than one of our imports when Antonov is out there with Karpov and they appear to be able to score for fun. However Sheppard thinks he can make a change to get more scoring and if we've learned anything from Sheppard's years in charge of the organisation, he is not scared to make the upgrade if he can see it.
With the Bison having (sort of) swapped Dan Lackey for Sam Brooks and still being without Dan Davies due to reasons unknown, Sheppard hopefully gets the contract signed on Cesky's replacement sooner rather than later or the Bison face being even more unsettled just a time when they're starting to get their feet back under themselves and really need to be settled. There's always been a plan. Whether Sheppard has earned the benefit of the doubt from you, dear reader, to be given the time to make this change to make the Bison better is your own decision.
Thanks for everything, Jaro; see you around.
Running with the Herd – Bison vs London Raiders 07/10/2017Posted: 08/10/2017 Filed under: Bison, NIHL, Running with the Herd Leave a comment
NIHL 1 South
Basingstoke Bison 7-1 London Raiders
Jackson x2 (1pp) Nahlik dpg
Antonov x2 (1pp)
Karpov pp
Connolly x2
It's a start:
After an improved performance in Sheffield last Sunday, this game was the perfect tonic for Bison fans who were disappointed with last weekend's cup outing against the Bees. It's too soon to be celebrating too much but this was exactly the sort of game that the Bison needed.
The Herd were without Stuart Mogg in addition to Dan Davies for this one but the Bison were able to roll 4 defencemen and were rarely troubled. We talked last week about the Bison lacking that bit of swagger because of a lack of confidence and, with all respect to the Raiders, this was a game to get that and it showed quickly.
The Bison realised that they could and would hold the Raiders at bay and started to press down on their opponents, a task made all the easier by some uncharacteristically effective powerplay work as they converted 3 of 4 powerplay chances in the first period.
Once the first period ended, the Bison swapped into snuffing out the game and getting out with minimal injuries and fuss, the score only reaching 7 because of the injury to Euan King seeing Raiders captain Tom Davis' forced into going in goal and one of them was essentially an own goal. Whilst we know that's how the Bison play, part of me feels that given such recent inconsistency I would have preferred if the Herd had tried running up the score a bit; allow players a chance to get a feel for scoring again and get more confidence heading into a tricky away game at Invicta today but once Euan King could no longer continue, that was never going to happen and that's understandable.
Aaron Connolly took the man of the match beers for the Herd and this game saw the captain look more like Aaron Connolly again. Back to his vocal best his first goal, a particularly nice shot that went "bar dizzle" off of a lay off from Jaroslav Cesky, was just reward for a line that looked to be finding its feet but did work. Josh Smith, rewarded for his recent excellent performances with a move to the second line, was used to clear the way and that allowed Cesky and Connolly to do some damage.
Meanwhile I'd like to sit down and see what the Raiders fans thought about the continued combination of Tomas Karpov and Vanya Antonov. When at full flight and whoever their linemate, this combination must be terrifying for defences when coming at them. Karpov's powerplay goal in particular was an example of a team that sat back too far not just being taken advantage of but made to look a bit foolish as Antonov passed around the defence then Karpov drew King out of his crease and down before firing home. It was a pretty goal and some pretty play. The other thing that came out of the first period's vast number of powerplays was that Antonov/Karpov duo worked well with Ashley Jackson and I wonder if we see more of it.
Dean Skinns will want the one Raiders goal back but otherwise it was an assured and comfortable evening for the defence. Hopefully Mogg is not out for long as it won't be ideal for the Bison to be running four defencemen for a lengthy period but this was an evening for them to continue their impressive performances. If nothing else, we also learned that Dan Scott will literally dance to anything. The end of season disco is going to be a riot.
A word on our opponents:
From a simple hockey perspective, the London Raiders didn't play well enough to win this game. 12 shots across 60 minutes sees a performance from the Raiders similar to that of Invicta during their visit to Hampshire earlier in the season. London came in, made a few early pokes at the Bison to see if they could get through but then decided that they would need to sit back and break on the counter. That's a reasonable strategy but they sat back so far at times that they were practically in the bar. They tried a bit of physicality, that didn't work so they did their best to maintain their shape and stick to their systems. They certainly gave a good account of themselves.
Sadly the game was over as a contest by the end of the first period thanks to a raft of silly penalties that the Raiders took. When you're making the Bison's powerplay look effective, something's wrong.
The Raiders were then dealt the massive blow when Euan King was forced out of the game with what the club announced as an MCL sprain following a hospital visit. The Raiders do have a backup in Zachary Grandy-Smith who didn't travel for unknown reasons.
As captain of the Raiders, Tom Davis stepped up to the task of replacing King in net for the final part of the game. Whilst I don't think Davis' future hockey career lies between the pipes, that's what a captain does; with his team's back against the wall he stepped up, chucked on King's gear and did what he could. His attempt at a windmill glove save was great to see if nothing else and he was unfortunate to concede one goal after Olegs Laschenko managed to deflect it off of him and over the line. He rightly got the beers for doing what he could.
Nobody really had a standout game for the Raiders but there was lots of hustle from them. Brandon Ayliffe and Tom Beesley as a forechecking pair looked very useful and Andy Munroe is still managing to put himself about. However both Nahlik and Huska were kept quiet as were the Raiders' top end Brits and that was that in terms of them catching the Bison. They'll chalk this up as a bad day at the office, try to figure out what they do for a netminder and go again.
Lowlight of the night: King's injury; it's never nice to see anyone go down injured let alone a goalie.
Highlight of the night: Karpov's powerplay goal was a prime example of what this Bison team can do when they have a tiny bit of confidence and a bit of space.

Building the Herd – Sam BrooksPosted: 05/10/2017 Filed under: Bison, Building the Herd, NIHL 2 Comments
#?? Samuel Brooks
Position: Forward
Born: Basingstoke, Hampshire
Announced as signed: Two-way contract with Buffalo confirmed Bison website, 3rd October
The second of the Bison's two part announcement was the news that the Bison had formalised Sam Brooks' involvement with the club. Having guested in games since the start of the season, the Bison under 18's alternate captain has been moved onto a formal two-way contract with the Bison and Buffalo following some impressive early season performances which included his first Bison point on Tomas Karpov's goal in Bracknell in September.
Brooks started his junior hockey career in Guildford eventually making his way to the under 16 Firestars where he spent parts of 3 seasons. The Guildford youth system, known for its quality and depth was a good place for Brooks who whilst not a massive point scorer in junior hockey made an impression in an impressive Firestars team. Brooks scored 13 points in 32 games and was part of the league winning side of 2014/15 alongside now Bison under 18s captain Cameron Buckle and Invicta Dynamos defenceman George Hoang.
In the summer of 2015, Brooks decided to continue his junior development in Basingstoke with the Bison and was immediately in the thick of things with both the under 18s and under 20s. 21 points in 18 games with the under 18s and 11 points in 13 games with the under 20s was a good foundation for the inevitable transition to senior hockey that would no doubt follow.
It came last season as Brooks appeared in 6 games for the Buffalo in NIHL 2 South where he registered 2 goals and 2 penalty minutes. Brooks also had productive seasons at under 18 and under 20 level, going over a point per game in both (26 points in 18 games for the under 18s, 17 points in 13 under 20 games) combined with 1 goal in the u18's short playoff run.
Named an alternate captain for the under 18 Bison this season and with ice time for the Buffalo also pretty much a certainty, it seemed that Brooks was set for the season. However with Doug Sheppard wanting to get a look at players in pre-season and then the injury to Dan Davies, Coach Sheppard took a chance on Brooks who has now formally played himself onto the Bison roster. Along with his appearances for the Herd, he has 4 points in 3 games for the Buffalo at the time of writing.
Amongst all the head scratching with the removal of Dan Lackey from the Bison roster, the team's physical edge or lack thereof and any perceived problems with consistency, this is a fantastic chance with a talented young player.
In some ways Sam Brooks has been in a "no lose situation" since he has been added to the roster. If he hadn't been what Doug Sheppard wanted then he at least got the experience of training the bit of game time that he got. However he's played well, raw at this level but well and well enough to earn a place on the roster for the remainder of the season.
At 17 years old, the key thing for Brooks is to go out and do what's asked of him. He clearly has an eye for the pass and an eye for goal as well as not being scared to play alongside the Bison's top end players when asked. The fans will hopefully show Brooks some patience as he learns and develops rather than demanding too much of him too soon. Generally Bison fans have been very good at supporting young players who find themselves in this position in recent years whether it be Wynn, Ingoldsby, Petts, Goddard or anyone else.
The Herd fans are generally good at getting behind the younger players and want them to do well. Doug Sheppard will not be as forgiving and if Brooks doesn't perform to the standard required then he'll spend more time in NIHL 2 and juniors until he is ready. Sam Brooks has a chance to start making a real mark in senior hockey. We naturally wish him all the best.
Goodnight and Good Luck – Dan LackeyPosted: 04/10/2017 Filed under: Bison, Good Night and Good Luck, NIHL Leave a comment
The Bison's inconsistent start has led to some changes being made. There's one in, one out and we'll deal with the departure first as Dan Lackey steps aside.
What have we lost?
Lackey was a depth forward for the Bison and I don't think anyone would argue that, even Lackey himself. He's the sort of player who, for the Bison was asked to go into the trenches and the dirty areas and be that physical player. He was asked to go into the corners and be the checking forward or clear the way. He wasn't, at least for this writer, there to put up lots of points.
The Bison lose a bit of physicality from the line-up as there is arguably now few players prepared to go and play the body as well as throw the hands if required.
Where has he gone?
Lackey has moved to the Buffalo in NIHL 2 as part of the roster moves.
Who replaces him?
I suppose technically Sam Brook (who we'll cover tomorrow) in the sense the club covered them both in the same press release but given the skill set of both players, it's not much of a like for like swap is it?
Final thoughts:
I have to confess to being slightly confused with this roster move unless one specific thing is happening.
I didn't think that Lackey had played particularly badly so far. There have been issues with the forwards producing offence but again, what is Lackey being asked to do? Score? He was doing all the things above that he was being asked to do, wasn't he? That's what makes this move somewhat unusual.
I feel bad for Lackey as a result; a player who can play forward or defence was asked to do a roll and when the top end guys are struggling to produce the numbers, the Bison release one of their role players instead and release him, if you believe the press release as gospel, for a 17 year old who is also added on a two way.
The thing is that we don't necessarily believe that Sam Brooks is Lackey's actual replacement. We'll look at the potential of Brooks in another piece because the departure of Lackey means that the Chris Wiggins sized elephant in the room.
If the Bison have signed Chris Wiggins after his appearance at the end of the bench a couple of weeks ago then this move makes a bit more sense because it would be a move that would make sense. The Bison free up a roster spot to add physicality whilst giving a young, skill player a chance at the roster whilst also getting ice time with the Buffalo. That would make sense.
However that's not what we've been given at the moment. Instead it's a press release outside of the Herd's usual announcement schedule and we're all left scratching our heads a bit. Ultimately I don't think that Dan Lackey did that much of anything wrong, it is just a move that Doug Sheppard thought he needed to make and he's made it.
Thanks for everything, Dan and all the best.

Chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticide residues in tennessee honey and beeswax
Several samples of commercial grade honey collected from different parts of Tennessee during the summer of 1973 were analyzed for chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticide (CHI) residues. A "Modified Mill's Procedure" was used to cleanup the samples prior to gas Chromatographic analysis using electron capture (EC) detection. The presence of CHI residues was confirmed by analysis on three different columns of widely varying polarity. Most of the samples contained CHI residues at 0.01—0.30 parts per billion (ppb) level. Beeswax produced during the same season contained several times higher levels of the residue than the honey samples. Recoveries of CHI residues varied from 81–95 percent by the procedure employed.

When someone is assembling a particular room, whether that room is at their home or their business, there are a lot of factors that you need to consider. While lots of time will no doubt be invested in putting together the right kind of furniture that'll be both functional and attractive, less time will no doubt be spent taking a look at lighting fixtures.
With that said, choosing the best lighting fixtures may be just as important, especially because these are lights that will not only permit you to see, but also add some all important "mood" to the room too. When it comes down to it, among the best options available to really make a room shine, so to say, are fluorescent light fixtures.
Exactly why should you use Fluorescent Light Fixtures in your house or business? It's not just the type of light that it produces, clear and bright, but the quantity of light that it produces as well. A primary reason why florescent lighting is so well received in the work setting is because they are made to give you a certain quantity of light. This means that you are able to pick bulbs that provide you just the proper amount of bright work light, or the correct amount of mood light for a particular room.
In addition, led lighting is simple to install and go with virtually any room. Whether you want the fixtures simply to disappear into the background of the room, or be front and center, you can find a fixture which includes fluorescent light to match your needs.
Most people are trying to be a little bit greener these days, especially when it comes to how much power they are using. While some people may be put off by the "Green" movement, the fact is that being more energy efficient typically results in situations where you are spending a lot less money on power than you had been before.
One of the better ways to use less energy when you are trying to light a room is by using fluorescent lighting. Unlike traditional light bulbs, fluorescent bulbs have a tendency to use a lot less energy to power them, meaning less cost. Additionally, the lighting is more efficient, meaning whenever you install fluorescent light fixtures into a room you can count on saving a good amount of cash on your overall lighting costs as well.
It used to be that you had to track down specialty stores to find the led lighting company that will work best for you. The good news is you can virtually walk into any mainstream home improvement store and find an entire aisle of both fixtures and replacement bulbs to choose from. These options range in price, as well as quality.
If you are looking to get the best deal, especially when they have to buy in bulk, try looking online at fluorescent light shops. Websites like these don't just get you the best selection of fluorescent light fixtures and bulbs, but the best prices also.Tags: lighting, light fixtures, home lighting

Overeating and Depression
I'm new to this community, I belong to the Asthma one and receive great support there.
I have been going through an acute episode of depression and anxiety for the last 5 months. This has made it easy for me to indulge in comfort eating with an attitude of "it's up to me what I eat, if I want it I'll have it", which leads to me feeling depressed and remorseful several hours later or just a massive failure in the morning.
I've lost 3st in the past with Slimming World so I have all the info I need to do it again. This time I have no willpower or motivation. The depression makes me crave sweet stuff or cars. The overeating makes me depressed and on it goes. I'm nearly back up to my original weight, I feel gross, ugly, incompetent and always out of breath!
I need help but don't know where to start.
Thank you for allowing me to post here. Maybe this will be the start I need?.
Best wishes to all here.

text: Ukshep 19,027 Posted November 12 President Donald Trump said that he spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin about meddling in the 2016 election, and he denied it. The president revealed the details of his conversation with Putin to reporters on Air Force One, who repeatedly asked him Putin and Russian election interference. "I just asked him again," Trump said. "He said he as absolutely did not meddle in our election, he did not do what they are saying he did." When reporters asked if Trump believed Putin, he demurred, but said the Russian president meant what he said. "Every time he sees me he says I didn't do that and I really believe that when he tells me that, he means it," Trump said. "But he says I didn't do that. I think he is very insulted by it, which is not a good thing for our country." http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/11/11/donald-trump-putin-told-me-he-absolutely-did-not-meddle-in-2016-election/ I don't see how they hacked the election for trump. HOWEVER, I don't think anyone should believe it just because trump said... You know? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cognitive processing therapy turned out to be a shitshow. I think I gave up when the social worker said something like "you veterans overestimate how many of you actually suffer from PTSD". I actually recorded every session, but haven't had the strength (or desire, really) to go back and listen and sort things out. The social worker continued to play the trick where instead of scheduling all of your appointments for a 12-week course of therapy, you only add them a month at a time. (This makes it appear when metrics are run that I got every single appointment within 30 days.) In the end, I got shorted a week-- 11 sessions, not 12. As expected, after the last session I haven't heard a word from anyone from the VA clinic in Lawrenceville, not a word from the hospital in Atlanta. I never will.
Was the therapy, and the fight I had to go through to get it, worth it? I don't know. Most of the value I got from it was the mental pick and shovel work that I did, which was far more than the therapy asked me to do. I don't want to talk you out of therapy if you're in a place in your life where it would do you good. I went to the Vet Center, and then to the clinic and the hospital and the emergency room, because I didn't have anywhere else to go for help.
The thing about the whole mess-- there was one social worker who was in Lawrenceville one day a week that did the therapy I wanted to get into. That meant I had two choices, the first being deal with whoever that guy was or go to another clinic that was much farther away. There was no "choose the right therapist for you" set of options.
I suppose it was just the best I could do, far away from home and without much in the way of resources to work with.
Nah, fuck diplomacy. Dude was worthless.
I still need to sit down and write a last letter to my U. S. Senator about all of that.
I am back in Wisconsin, in a new (to me) city. Since I have two evictions in the recent past, one of them the result of being tossed out of the VA grant per diem/transitional housing program, it's been an uphill climb to find a permanent place to live. I'm working for myself now, scraping things together. I'm not in therapy, don't plan to be. PTSD followed me when I left, it followed me back. I have office space to work in, which is generally pretty low key and quiet-- I have an actual key and 24 hour access, so I can be here late on Saturday night when it's pin drop quiet. I get a lot done some of the time, a little less others.
I've often worn more than one hat; student, adult student, student veteran, veteran, homeless student, homeless veteran. New place, new time. I'm the only one here who knows about all of that, because I haven't brought it up. I don't tell the history, don't sing the song, don't tell the story. Now I'm just an entrepreneur. A businessman. People ask my advice. People are respectful.
The "PTSD and College" story is over and has been for quite some time. I'm not going back to school-- I could get a bachelor's degree, find some online school that would take all of my credits, let me finish those last few-- but for what? Nobody cares. In the world I'm in now, no one gives a shit about what degree you have if you can do the job. People don't ask me for advice because I went to this school or that school, they ask me because they believe I will give them an answer that's close to the right one.
I went through hell and back to stay in Madison, to get back into UW-Madison, to take that dream as far as I could. Much of the value I got from being in Madison and being on that campus is the knowledge and skill I gained on my own. The last few years I spent hanging around UW-Madison were spent hacking and learning, which was *my* doing. That part was worth it.
After I finally left Madison I was able to see things more clearly, to realize that UW-Madison was not at all the right school for me. I am not stupid. I am not lazy. I gave everything I had to being a student at that school and honestly no one gave a shit if I was there or not, much less if I was successful or not. That I was a student veteran was neither brave nor noble. No one but me cared.
I don't know what's going to happen with this blog. I've gone back and forth for a few months now, can't quite set it to private, can't delete it, haven't had much to say, have had everything to say. I've written the final post probably fifty times, and haven't come up with one that I wanted to post. For now this is all you get.
Don't ever say "thank you for your service" to me. I don't want to hear it, even if you do mean it-- but you probably don't. People say it because you're supposed to say it, but it's not for us. It's for you to feel good saying it. If you want to show your thanks to a veteran, hire her and send her to school to learn how to do what you need done. Let him rent that apartment even if his credit isn't 100% perfect. Ask that guy sitting on the sidewalk to join you for lunch and actually talk to him. You have a veteran in your class and they ask you for help, do whatever you have to do to help them pass that class. Do something tangible. Money talks. Bullshit walks.

if you are not entertained because your team lost (the outcome for 90% of playoff teams), don't think this "proves" your team isn't the "best". And if your team does win… well, you can think that your team is the "best"; even if the rest of us know this isn't true
We discuss this topic a lot around here, and it simply occurs to me that the joy of watching sports is in seeing an equal contest. Some of the greatest joy is in seeing a contest that figured to be unequal and turns out to be more equal than supposed. If every sporting season and event produced a clear winner – if sports were the equivalent of Notre Dame playing Slippery Rock every weekend – even statheads would stop watching. "Best" is for barroom or Internet debates. All anybody knows for sure is that a given competitor actually won.
This is coming up on MLS fansites (they do exist) since it's playoff time for the league, and 3 of the last 4 series were won by the lower- seeded team. Plus the context that "real" leagues (e.g., many Euro leagues while ignoring plenty of leagues in the Americas such as Mexico's) decide their champion by regular season record. Lots of complaints that the playoff system doesn't given enough advantage to the higher seeds, and/or that the playoffs make the regular season meaningless.3. Juan Uribe Marching and Chowder Society Posted: November 10, 2012 at 01:30 PM (#4299587)
I don't know what to say but that in general it seems to work out. Lots of American sports fans, even the "serious" rather than "casual" ones, love what the playoffs have to bring while there are still plenty of people who enjoy the regular season and find meaning in it. Personally, it's hard not to think of the playoffs as a crapshoot sometimes. Then again, going on a good run yields plenty of excitement.
I suppose the level of crapshootyness varies by sport? From less of a crapshoot to more: NBA playoffs, NFL playoffs, MLS playoffs, MLB playoffs, NHL playoffs, NCAA basketball playoffs? (I'm totally pulling that out of my butt since I don't follow all those sports closely.)
I don't think many people here will be able to accurately place the MLS playoffs on the spectrum.4. GregD Posted: November 10, 2012 at 01:56 PM (#4299600)
Can I place the MLS playoffs on automatic delete?5. Juan Uribe Marching and Chowder Society Posted: November 10, 2012 at 02:08 PM (#4299609)
One problem with the exercise is best in what way. Best over the course of the season? Or best at the end of the season? Lots of times teams in all sports struggle in the early season and play lights out toward the end. If you have a team like that this #3 in record but #1 in the last 2 months, say, playing the team with the #1 overall record but, say, #4 record over the last two months, which exactly is the best? How are you supposed to evaluate the outcome?
The other issue is the marginal difference between #1 and #2. If it's huge, then it's fair to ask if the playoffs reward that difference. If it's tiny, then the question of which one was best isn't that interesting and the playoff outcome should be a toss-up.
My gut sense is that the NBA and NFL almost always get their awesome teams into the finals. When there isn't an awesome team in a conference, then it's a crapshoot.
I would guess baseball is less consistent about getting into awesome teams in the series.
The NCAA is remarkably consistent. Lots of #1 seeds get to the Final Four. We remember the amazing upsets (some of which aren't crazy upsets but are lower-ranked teams that floundered early but were lights-out from January on.) Lots of upsets early on, but only a couple of real upsets at the end. If you get into was UK or UNC the better team last year, you can drive yourself nuts about 1 vs 1A (and about Marshall's injury) but most years the team that wins is one of the teams that had a real claim to being the best.
I could give a crap about the NHL or MLS.
Really? I couldn't.6. Fred Lynn Nolan Ryan Sweeney Agonistes Posted: November 10, 2012 at 02:18 PM (#4299613)
I might have up to about an hour ago, but now I definitely couldn't.7. Walt Davis Posted: November 10, 2012 at 04:45 PM (#4299716)
Baseball playoffs are different than basketball, hockey and football (but not soccer) in that baseball is not a substitution game. Although the differences are probably pretty small, the baseball playoff team is not the same as the regular season team. Not just due to trades and late-season callups (is there any equivalent to a K-Rod in the other sports?) but because you're essentially using a trimmed roster. Your bench doesn't play, your 5th starter doesn't start, your 4th starter starts as little as possible, your top 3 relievers (plus LOOGY) get all the high-leverage innings they can stand. The "best" team during the regular season might have been the best of the good teams because they had the best bench, best 5th starter, etc. which is virtually no advantage in the postseason.8. tshipman Posted: November 10, 2012 at 11:23 PM (#4299902)
I know that's all true to some extent in the other sports -- teams using less rotation, etc. -- but even Jordan came off the floor for 5 minutes in playoff games.
My gut sense is that the NBA and NFL almost always get their awesome teams into the finals. When there isn't an awesome team in a conference, then it's a crapshoot.
There's a huge difference between the NBA and NFL. In the NBA, one of the four best teams in the league almost always wins. In years where that wasn't true, it was typically due to injuries or a late trade changing teams.
The NFL is muuuuuch less structured. In the NBA, you really are better off tearing your team apart if you don't project to win 55 games in the next three years.
The NCAA is remarkably consistent. Lots of #1 seeds get to the Final Four. We remember the amazing upsets (some of which aren't crazy upsets but are lower-ranked teams that floundered early but were lights-out from January on.) Lots of upsets early on, but only a couple of real upsets at the end. If you get into was UK or UNC the better team last year, you can drive yourself nuts about 1 vs 1A (and about Marshall's injury) but most years the team that wins is one of the teams that had a real claim to being the best.
Also, a lot of upsets are like a 30-4 team from a lower conference beating a much higher-seeded 23-9 team from a big conference. With all due respect to Pomeroy and other statheads, a lot of times we simply have no idea how good that 30-4 team was going in; this is another category of "crazy upset" that could very well have simply been the better team being underappreciated due to difficulty in figuring out how to rate a massive schedule difference. (The opposite also happens, where a lesser conference 34-2 team gets a high seed and then gets taken out by a major conference team).
The NBA is by far the least crapshooty of the NA sports, because the better team wins the typical game far more often than in baseball or hockey (evident in the variance in year-end winnning percentage between the best and worst teams). The typical football game goes to the better team far more often than baseball and hockey as well, but the single-elimination nature of its postseason reduces the chances of the better team emerging. And, as GregD said, despite the upsets and one-and-done nature of the event, the NCAA tournament is pretty good about delivering a champion that was already in the discussion for best team (in part, because of basketball's inherent tilt toward the better team and in part because the frequent upsets more often than not ease the path to the Final 4 for the sport's best teams).11. Walt Davis Posted: November 10, 2012 at 11:59 PM (#4299918)
Also whenever an #7 seed makes the final four, you can just blame it on the selection committee being idiots.12. Jack Carter, calling Beleaguered Castle Posted: November 11, 2012 at 12:16 AM (#4299922)
I don't get really get to pay attention to college b-ball over here but it seems to me that as the NCAA has gotten more competitive (across conferences) the committee has generally done a better job. They really did use to have a boner for the name conferences and it used to be quite easy to identify the #11 or #12 seed that was gonna go on a run -- in part because the #12 shouldn't have been any worse than a #7 seed and because the major conference they were playing shouldn't have been higher than a #8. Now the mini-majors get a good bit of respect from the selection committee and, if anything, are likely to over-seed Gonzaga these days.
@7: that's right, and it's one reason I thought the Mets were smart to snag Frank Viola back in '89 in that 5 (?) for 1 deal. I thought it was a fair chance Viola, Cone, and Gooden would pitch 0 for the playoffs. Not that leaving Ojeda, Fernandez, and Darling on the bench or moving them into the pen was necessarily the best use of resources....13. Dr. Vaux Posted: November 11, 2012 at 02:29 AM (#4299944)
Yikes. Ojeda, Fernandez, and Darling would have been a fair front three for a playoff team. Good lord, but that team was stocked.
Yes, when discussing Davey Johnson's career, it has to be mentioned that the Mets not winning the division in 1989 and 1990 is one of the most inexplicable failures of that era. 1987, too.14. Flynn Posted: November 11, 2012 at 08:26 AM (#4299965)
The Mets didn't pitch very well in 87 and 89. They got unlucky in 1990, if you trust Pythag.15. Jack Carter, calling Beleaguered Castle Posted: November 11, 2012 at 11:49 PM (#4300404)
Gooden had his drug issues in 1987, iirc. Viola was injured in 1989 and Gooden only started 15 games. Darling never became as good as he looked (which was pretty obvious by then--he was traded in 1991 and wandered in the desert for several paychecks before hanging it up), and the previous offseason was when Ojeda lost part of a pitching finger(s). His control in 89 was horrible. And credit where it's due to those tough Cardinal teams.16. OsunaSakata Posted: November 12, 2012 at 01:19 PM (#4300649)
If people want it to be more likely for the team with the best record to win the World Series, there's a simple fix in that direction. Just have fewer off days in the post-season. That will emphasize depth which is supposedly a reason a team has the best regular season record.17. BDC Posted: November 12, 2012 at 02:10 PM (#4300684)
But of course, that would mean, more playoff games could be played without going into November. Which would be too much of a temptation for the owners. So, hello 3-game wild card series and 7-game LDS.
One dynamic here is the ratio of regular season to playoffs. In the NFL, NBA, NHL and NCAA men's basketball, the ratio is about five full-regular-season games to each playoff win a team needs to win the postseason (assuming the winner of the Super Bowl to have held a first-round bye; otherwise 4-1 there). In major-league baseball, the ratio is about 15 to 1. You'd expect the 15-1 sport to feature more random champions.18. jack the seal clubber (on the sidelines of life) Posted: November 12, 2012 at 04:09 PM (#4300802)
Unfortunately I've just made an implicit argument for MLB expanding all three current playoff rounds to best 11-of-21 series, so I hope no ML owners are lurkers here. But the other implication was that BITGOD, with a ratio around 40-1, the single-division MLB and World Series was as dicey as things can get.
No one should root for a longer playoff season in MLB, in my opinion. The playoff structure in the NHL and NBA, in particular, is such that the playoffs are endless and lose whatever meaning the regular season once had. Then again, I am not the best person to ask; if it was up to me, we would go back to the 1955 format where there was an AL pennant winner and a NL pennant winner, and they played each other in the World Series.19. The Chronicles of Reddick Posted: November 12, 2012 at 06:07 PM (#4300888)
The NBA playoff format is simple. Unless you are a "name" franchise, you don't have success in the playoffs.

- Four weeks to go before the 2010 DTM season starts
- Tabac Original and TV Movie are new Audi partners
- Schaeffler Group on board again
Audi will start into the 2010 DTM season at the Hockenheimring on April 25 with strong new partners. This week, the Audi A4 DTM cars sporting their current colors can be seen for the first time at the official DTM tests at Valencia, Spain.
Audi is one of the most successful automobile manufacturers in the world – and the first and only one so far to have won the DTM drivers title three consecutive times: in 2007 with Mattias Ekström, and in 2008 and 2009 with Timo Scheider.
Three renowned new partners will jointly tackle the "title defense" project with Audi in the 2010 season: Tabac Original, TV Movie and the Schaeffler Group with its LuK and INA brands – like Audi, all of them are premium brands and, for the most part, the number one in their segments.
"That we will have such renowned partners on board underscores the attractiveness of the Audi brand and the high caliber of the DTM," says Siegfried Krause, Head of Partnerships at Audi Sport. "Anyone who invests in sport sponsoring today rightly has very high expectations of their investment. With Audi, partners are in good hands in this regard."
The same is true for Tabac Original. The classic fragrance that was recently awarded the title "brand of the century" by a high-caliber judging panel had a previous sponsoring commitment in the DTM back in the nineteen-nineties. Now that the market leader for after-shave products is returning to the most popular international touring car racing series, it has deliberately opted for the brand with the four rings. "Tabac Original sets standards – Audi sets standards," say the makers of Tabac Original. "The two brands perfectly fit together."
By teaming up with TV Movie from the Bauer Media Group, Audi has managed to win one of the major German magazine brands as a premium partner for the DTM. In addition to various sport partnerships which include FC Bayern München among others, TV Movie will thus extend its involvement in motorsport as well. The DTM partnership will be supported by various forms of editorial coverage and campaigns.
The return of the Schaeffler Group means that a long-standing Audi partner will be part of the team again. As a renowned automotive supplier, the Schaeffler Group has maintained ties with Audi for many years and has also accompanied Audi in motorsport. With its INA, LuK and FAG brands, it offers a wide range of elements for engines, transmissions and suspension systems. The reduction of fuel consumption and CO2 emissions is one of the focal areas of the company's innovations in the automotive sector. In addition, the Schaeffler Group is the leading manufacturer of roller bearings and linear products.
Every one of the total of nine Audi A4 DTM cars will start from the grid sporting an individual livery so that fans can immediately recognize it. The Tabac Original colors will be featured on the Audi A4 DTM driven by Oliver Jarvis. TV Movie determines the branding of Alexandre Prémat's A4. The LuK logo will be emblazoned on Mattias Ekström's car and the INA logo on the Audi driven by Mike Rockenfeller.
