Brewer Tim Wauters of Lake Louie with his rye IIPA.
Lake Louie Brewing of Arena is increasing its beer offerings in 2017. "This year I'm going to do some unique beers, whether they sell or not," says brewery owner and brewmaster Tom Porter. In the past month, Porter's new releases have included his first pilsner; a spiced Scotch ale named Ginger Hipster; and a custom four-pack of Warped Speed Scotch ale packaged with a 750mL bottle of Bulleit Bourbon. Hitting shelves and local taps this week is a bold double IPA called Chicken Dance that's loaded with rye.
What is it? Chicken Dance from Lake Louie Brewing of Arena.
Style: The double IPA, also called an imperial IPA, is a bolder and more robust version of the India Pale Ale. Among the desired traits in a double IPA is fresh hop aroma and flavor with a strong underpinning of malt for body and balance. The hoppy qualities will vary between piney and tropical, depending upon the preference of the brewer. Double IPAs can be quite strong at 7.5-10.5 percent ABV.
Background: For the past several years, interest in rye whiskey has been growing. Rye, as a malted grain, isn't just for whiskey. Brewers too like the way it adds sharpness, spiciness and dryness to beer. It can also augment a beer's color with dark amber and copper hues. Chicken Dance is loaded with rye: three different types go into the mash. "We call this a triple rye, Double IPA," says Porter. "That's because we don't know what else to call it."
The beer was developed by Lake Louie brewers Tim Wauters and Patrick Seibold. Wauters came up with the initial recipe; then Seibold took the formula home and made a homebrew-sized batch that was used to help dial in the list of ingredients and especially the amount of rye.
There's also plenty of hop flavor to meld with all that rye. The hop bill includes Magnum, Zeus, Ahtanum and Simcoe. Hop bitterness comes in around 60-70 IBUs (International Bitterness Units); however there's so much rye, this beer tastes much hoppier than the IBU number would indicate.
The name clearly refers to the popular dance from Badger games, weddings etc., but also alludes to the fact that rye is sometimes used for chicken feed. The promotional art for the beer features chickens playing instruments and was inspired by Porter's favorite band (who he's been known to play with), Screamin' Gene & the Lake Louie Growlers, which plays the Chicken Dance as part of its repertoire.
The beer finishes around 8 percent ABV, and is available in four-packs of 12-ounce bottles for around $10-12/each. It's also on tap in select craft beer hangouts. Most of the initial production of Chicken Dance went into kegs for draught sales, so finding four-packs might prove a bit challenging. Porter hasn't committed to making more, at least not yet.
Tasting notes:
Aroma: Spicy and bready, with a light hint of citrus hoppiness.
Appearance: Clear, copper color with a soft tan head.
Texture: Medium- to full-bodied with softness.
Taste: A bready-earth and spicy beginning with lots of dry-rye spiciness throughout.
Finish/Aftertaste: Alcohol warmth that's accented by the spicy dryness of the rye. The rye finish lingers, but not for long.
Glassware: The Willi Becher's inward flare near the lip will gently focus the aromatics of hops and rye, which display the beer's vivid deep copper color.
Pairs well with: Spicy pastas or a reuben sandwich; a sharp cheddar or a blue cheese.
The Verdict: Lake Louie's Chicken Dance has a lot of rye, which elevates the beer's overall bitterness. Some may find the rye a little too intense. However I like the melding of the citrus and pine of the hops with the spicy breadiness of the rye. Chicken Dance is a strong beer, and you'll feel it with the warmth in the finish. The bottom line: The rye makes it distinctive and quite different from other double IPAs. Those who enjoy hops and assertive spicy bitterness will want to try it.

Hebrews (Crossway Classics)
Owen, John
Product Description:
The author of Hebrews wanted his audience to know and understand one truth: Christ is superior, and therefore, so is Christianity. He demonstrates this by comparing the imperfect old covenant with the perfect new covenant. The person of Christ is better than prophets and angels, His priesthood is greater than that of Melchizedek and the line of Aaron, and His power within the believer's life is incomparable. Between these contrasts he exhorts the readers to persevere in their faith, be obedient, grow in their understanding, and not miss the grace of God. The lessons and admonitions of Hebrews have intensely practical application for all readers—then and now.
John Owens' unveiling of this text will give pastors and students of the Bible a thorough handle on its key passages. The message of Hebrews proves that Jesus Christ is still the Savior the world needs today. Contemporary believers will be inspired by it as they seek to uphold and defend Christ's supremacy in a pluralistic world.

You may have seen video circulating around the Internet of a Southern Cal women's track and field athlete making a remarkable comeback on the last leg of the 4x400-meter relay to win the event and clinch a national title.
Her name is Kendall Ellis, and she's a Pembroke Pines native and St. Thomas Aquinas alum.
Ellis, a senior, doesn't even appear in the picture on ESPN's broadcast as Purdue's anchor runner leads the race by a significant margin heading into the final stretch at the NCAA Track and Field Championships. USC is actually in third behind host Oregon.
"I just don't know if Purdue is going to get caught," one commentator said.
"No, there's no way — unless they drop the baton. Purdue's going to win this," the other chimed in.
That's when Ellis found an extra gear over the final 100 meters on the rain-drenched track in Eugene. She quickly speeds past the Oregon runner, inches closer to Purdue's Jaheya Mitchel and leans in across the finish line for the victory.
Her 50.05-second split made up a near-two-second deficit and was good enough to win the event by seven-hundredths of a second. The 4x400 victory gave USC 10 points on the final event to edge runner-up Georgia (52) and third-place Stanford (51) for the Trojan's second national title.
The push down the homestretch wrapped up an impressive national championship performance for Ellis, who also was second in the 400 and was part of a 4x100 relay that finished third.
In high school, Ellis was a four-time state champion in the 400 and All-County first-team selection in the Sun Sentinel.
She's the second St. Thomas grad in the past week to excel on the national stage of collegiate athletics after former Raiders' softball pitcher Meghan King put together a record-setting performance in leading FSU to a Women's College World Series crown.

It's almost 1.5 months into 2017.
How are your New Year resolutions doing? Are you doing everything you can to improve your health and consequently, your fertility? Dropped the ball a little?
No worries.
Here's your 2nd chance with Chinese New Year!
Chinese New Year began Jan 28 and lasts until Feb 15. So you still have a few days to reaffirm your vision.
In Chinese astrology, there are 12 Chinese Zodiac signs. Because the moon's cycle repeats itself every 12 years, there are 12 animals in the Chinese Horoscope - one for each year of the lunar cycle. In contrast, the 12 animals in the Western Zodiac are assigned to each solar month.
How did the Chinese Zodiac originate?
According to one of the many myths, thousands of years ago, Buddha decided to call all the animals on earth. But only twelve came:
- the Rat
- the Ox
- the Tiger
- the Rabbit
- the Dragon
- the Snake
- the Horse
- the Goat or Sheep
- the Monkey
- the Rooster
- the Dog
- the Pig
As a reward, he assigned each animal a year on the cycle. Children born in that year would acquire the personality traits of that animal.
In order to decide their order in the Chinese Zodiac cycle, the animals held a race. The first one to winwould be granted the first year, the second to come in would be the second animal in the cycle, and so on.
The strong, hardworking Ox was in the lead. But the clever Rat jumped on the Ox's back and hitched a ride. At the last second, the Rat jumped off the Ox and to cut in front to win the race! The Ox came in second, the Tiger third, and so it went... the happy-go-lucky Pig took his time and came in last.
Thus the Chinese Zodiac and its twelve signs were born...
So take advantage of this time of renewal and commit to improving yourself. Make 2017 the best year yet.
Better results are achieved with professional help. So if you haven't already tried acupuncture to improve your fertility, call me at (858) 495-0771 or book here: http://juliechang.genbook.com/

boyfriend dressing
One trend I love but struggle with a bit is dressing like a boy(friend). At first, I was puzzled by the baggy jeans, baggy shirt look being worn by all the hottest (tiniest) women in fashion. Why would they want to hide their amazing figures? I thought to myself. Then I tried on this pair of J Brands a couple years ago and realized exactly why...What's not to love about soft, baggy, super comfy jeans? They work any way, with sneakers or heels, an old t-shirt or silk blouse. Wear em, love em... you can even dance in em, if you want to.

Reviews for The Slave Players
Allen displays the plotting chops of someone with five thrillers under her belt. A masterly indictment of America's failed racial politics that remembers to entertain.
— Kirkus Reviews
Wow, this one was devised to light the fuse, by a twisted young lady. Extraordinary contemporary drama of life in the south with all the trimmings. Racism, hate, hope, humor, love— all the good stuff we need to keep turning pages until the end. And then the gut-wrenching disappointment of knowing there are no more pages left to turn. What a gripping tale by a terrific new talent.
— Weekly Review
Magnetic and provocative story, with characters you'll love, and a master villain you'll love to hate. What begins as a murder mystery then shifts gears for a ride through a volatile land where all societal rules come to die.
— The Novel Reader
Gripping, imaginative, and frighteningly prophetic.
— Christine Abbot, Author
Megan Allen's debut novel is a chilling modern-day tale of racism in the Deep South. Replete with everything unexpected, including its shockingly controversial premise. Bound to be a new favorite for all fiction buffs.
— Publishers Daily Review
An honest, unique and fictionally relevant look at racial tension in our modern age—one of the toughest hot button topics of our time. This smartly-written novel will give you pause, make you think and stick with you long after you savor the final words. 5 Stars!

Just wanted to tell you that today our college received a letter from the KKK group asking us to ban the book. I just wanted to tell you that I have shared it with other librarians who are equally as appalled. While we do not have the book on our shelves at this time I wanted to let you know that I (and most librarians) are very against the banning of books and will not cave to these threats and attempts to limit our patron's selections. I would guess that the more we share this the more sales you will get! Keep your head up and keep writing. You know you are successful in art if you are pissing someone off!
Julie Kessler on October 10, 2017 at 3:57 pm
I am a school librarian. I am very grateful to you and other brave authors who attempt to tackle and help us understand one of the most difficult issues of our time. Keep on! Many thanks!
Burn House Publishing on October 10, 2017 at 6:10 pm
To the skeptic who wrote us. We're sorry you feel that way, and sad that you wouldn't identify yourself so we could communicate. The Southern Poverty Law Center is currently investigating the KKK attacks on our behalf. They have great resources and lots of experience in tracking haters down and exposing them for what they are. We will keep you and our other followers appraised. And we hope you will alter your opinions and maybe even read our great novel. If you will identify yourself I'll be happy to send you a free copy.
Danny Greene on November 30, 2017 at 10:56 pm
Kill yourself you filthy [n-word] loving whore. God bless the klan!
Thomas H. Bowes on January 28, 2018 at 12:53 pm
It is appaling how people in the KKK can think it is acceptable to ban books from libraries, but they whine when students themselves reject hate literature and hate speakers on campuses.

Commercial Building and Property Depreciation
The term commercial property (also called commercial real estate, investment or income property) refers to buildings or land intended to generate a profit, either from capital gain or rental income. Commercial building owners investing in real estate are tasked with handling the management, maintenance, taxes, insurance, and accounting of the property. Commercial real estate can include land, building(s), and associated land improvements that are either constructed or acquired from an investor or a business entity.
Examples of commercial buildings include industrial, warehouses, manufacturing, offices, shopping centers, supermarkets, retail, restaurants, hotels, motels, casinos, entertainment, auto dealerships, self-storage, hospitality, hospitals, MOB's, etc. Apartments and rental homes are considered a residential property that qualifies for a shorter building depreciation life than commercial buildings.
Commercial Real Estate Depreciation
Commercial and residential building assets can be depreciated either over 39-year straight-line for commercial property, or 27.5-year straight line for residential property as dictated by the current U.S. Tax Code. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) allows building owners the opportunity under the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) to depreciate certain land improvements and personal property over a shorter period than 39 or 27.5 years. Certain land improvements can be depreciated over 15 years at 150% DB, with certain personal property depreciated over 7 or 5 years at 200% DB. This depreciation analysis is known as a cost segregation study.
For example, the plumbing costs associated with installing a 3/4″ copper pipe connected to a restroom sink in a supermarket building must be depreciated over 39 years. That same 3/4″ pipe installed to a bakery sink qualifies as a 5-year write-off. The restroom sink is related to the operation of a building, the bakery sink is related to the taxpayers business. All buildings, commercial or residential, will be in need of repairs over time. Anyone who has owned a commercial or residential rental property for any length of time knows that it will need maintenance, repairs, and renovations as the years go by. Recent tax legislation known as the Tangible Property Regulations (TPR) allows building owners to dispose of assets as they are replaced.
Take Advantage of IRS Allowed Tax Benefits to Owners of Commercial & Residential Rental Properties Utilizing a Cost Segregation Study.
The only way to have these components segregated is to have a detailed engineering-based Cost Segregation study performed on your property. Since 1993, McGuire Sponsel, formerly Ernst & Morris Consulting Group, Inc. (E&M), has been providing hundreds of CPA firms and clients across the country with our engineering approach to Cost Segregation, which includes our work paper documentation and detailed engineering-based report that has survived IRS Audits for nearly 25 years. Our professionals possess over 150 years of combined Cost Segregation experience.

African Health Now
How we used data to bring primary health care to African communities that need it.
About the organization African Health Now transforms local spaces—schools, markets, taxi stations, church compounds, parking lots—into medical clinics, providing immediate and local access to doctors, screenings, and life-saving information.
Our challenge African Health Now came to Change Better with a common challenge that every nonprofit faces: how to measure their impact. The organization was exceptional at bringing health care services to vulnerable communities in West Africa. They had organized several major health fairs, with each fair bigger than the last. Patients were raving about the quality of the services they received. It was clear there was potential to make a substantial impact in these communities, but they had very little tangible data on how the fairs improved the health of the communities they served.
Without this data, African Health Now had no way of knowing which of their health services were working or where they needed to improve - information that is critical for a small organization working with a lean budget. And they didn't have the figures that would convince funders that what they were doing was a great investment.
What we did So we designed a follow up care program that empowers local community health workers to stay in touch with patients easily through SMS. Through the data gathered over SMS, African Health Now has access to information like how often patients are getting sick, the number of times they visit doctors, and what kinds of new diseases or health issues are affecting the communities they're serving.
The result This information is critical not only to prove the impact of their work, but also helps African Health Now improve their services—when they fully understand the diseases the community is suffering from, they can offer the services that are most needed.
With this framework and the new follow-up care program, African Health Now has access to a supply of data like never before. The organization can now begin to measure the full extent of their impact over time.

"Working with Change Better changed the way my entire organization runs—for the better."

We are pretty sure that we have presented to you our portfolio of modular kitchen designs here in our blog. Our clients in the Philippines have different tastes, they like various colors, sizes, shades, and even their preferred manufacturers.
We will show you how good they look in an actual kitchen. It works very well especially when you set them in the proper place with all the appropriate furniture and home décor. Most of our portfolio features a contemporary and/or modern design. What's better is all are functional.
By definition, a modular design is a kind of approach that splits a system into modules or smaller parts. It can then be separately built and utilized in diverse systems to provide several functionality. Expect our list of 5 Modular Kitchen Design Ideas in the Philippines to surprise you in some ways. Take a peek and delight in these:
High Gloss
The kitchen is both standardized and ergonomic. The materials applied for this modern kitchen were blum motion drawers, graphicote glass, melamine faced chipboard, machine pressed boards, and a solid surface counter top.
Aside from being modern and ergonomic, this L-type kitchen with cooktop on peninsula design used machine pressed boards and melamine faced chipboard.
Modern Contemporary
We installed the ergonomic modular kitchen which features a modern yet contemporary design. It also has a kitchen roller shutter for added functionality.
Modern Minimalist
This modern minimalist kitchen utilized the following materials: machine pressed boards, blum motion drawers, and melamine faced chipboard. The kitchen has a cooktop in peninsula design featuring a magic corner, a pull-out pantry, and a solid surface.
U-Shaped Kitchen
We used machine pressed boards on this modular kitchen. It also has awning door, a bar type peninsula design, pneumatic lid stay, and a pull-out pantry.
Looking back, design and construction for years always feature a good-looking kitchen, but there's always the need to change for the better. Luckily, with modern design and continuous drive for improvement, architects, interior designers and construction folks have done well with kitchen designs compared to a decade ago.
What do you think of our list of 5 Modular Kitchen Design Ideas? Will you implement it on your house or condo unit here in the Philippines? If you're still having second thoughts on going modular, check our previous post where we discussed why you should use modular kitchen cabinets.

Portrait of Walter Griffin
I'll be turning 29 later this year, and a recent conversation with some other artists (about trying to "make it" as a young painter) reminded me of an artist that only lived till 29, yet had an amazing career.
Jessica - 1890
Dennis Miller Bunker (1861-1890) was born in New York City and studied at the National Academy of Design and the Art Students League with William Merritt Chase. He attended the Ecole des Beaux Art in Paris, learning from Jean-Leon Gerome. After graduating in 1885, he returned to the United States and took a job in Boston teaching at the Cowles Art School. That same year Bunker had his first one-man exhibition at the Noyes & Blakeslee Gallery in Boston.
In 1887 Bunker met John Singer Sargent during Sargent's visit to Boston, and in 1888, spent the summer with Sargent at Calcot Mill in England painting in plein-air. That summer was a turning point for Bunker's painting style as he became greatly influenced by impressionism and turned to brighter colors and looser brushwork. He brought this style back with him to Boston and was praised for his new work.
John Singer Sargent - Dennis Miller Bunker Painting at Calcot
Bunker always felt like an outsider in Boston's society and in the Spring of 1889 resigned his teaching position at Cowles Art School, lived briefly that summer at Medfield, Massachusetts, and then moved back to New York City. Earlier that year he had met Eleanor Heady of Boston and they were married in October 1890. They moved into Sherwood Studios in New York City, but during a visit to Boston that Christmas Bunker fell ill and died at the age of 29.
Portrait Sketch of Eleanor Hardy Bunker
Within those 12 years from training to death, Bunker had accomplished more than most of us would ever achieve in a lifetime. It's quite a reality check! I guess I should get painting.

China's Xi Jinping goes back to Marx and the classics to push a modern green agenda
Chinese President Xi Jinping has turned to Karl Marx and Chinese classic teachings to justify his battle against pollution.
Qiushi, the Communist Party's journal, published in its January issue a speech Xi delivered in May in which he quoted extensively from Marx and Chinese classics such as the I Ching, or Book of Changes, and Tao Te Ching to stress that human must live in harmony with nature.
"To learn from Marx, [we] must learn Marxist thought on human and nature," Xi said.
"If mankind conquers nature with science and creativity, nature will take revenge on mankind," he added, paraphrasing Marx and fellow writer Friedrich Engels.
Xi went on to cite Engels' Dialectics of Nature, saying that the ancient inhabitants of Mesopotamia, Greece, Anatolia all saw their homelands become deserts after turning too many forests into fields.
Xi also cited the I Ching, a foundation text for feng shui masters, to make his point on the significance of preserving the environment.
He said also that Chinese thinkers such as Lao Tzu and Mencius highlighted the need to conserve the environment.
Although Xi gave the speech nine months ago, its full text was only made public by Qiushi.
Xi may be more focused on conservation than any state leader in the country's past. He has made it a key part of officials' appraisals and last year named it as one of the three "battles" along with political and financial risks and poverty alleviation the country has to fight.
Conservation was also named as one of five target areas for achieving the president's "great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation".
Xi's focus on the environment was also highlighted by a political earthquake in two provinces in recent years shake-ups that were carried out in the name of environmentalism.
In Shaanxi province in the country's northwest, a provincial party chief and a handful of other officials have been sacked for corruption in the past two years, with state media accusing them of ignoring Xi's instructions to demolish a string of villas encroaching on the Qin Mountains.
And in neighbouring Gansu to the west, the provincial party boss was sacked in 2017, castigated on state television for turning a deaf ear to Xi's repeated instructions to handle a pollution site.
Xi also vowed to make an example of other unnamed top officials who condoned pollution.
"Certain regional chiefs were not only exempted from punishment but were promoted despite frequent ecological problems under their watch," he said. "[We] must resolutely a handful of typical cases who did damage to the ecology."
Xi's emphasis on conservation comes after decades of breakneck economic growth that has raised incomes for many but at a huge cost to the environment and human health. Demand is growing for the damage to be reversed, and Xi's environmental policies could go some way towards that if he can deliver on them.
And while the US has withdrawn from the Paris Agreement on climate change, Xi has pledged that China will keep its commitments and continue to invest in renewable energy and phase out carbon fuels as sources of energy.
Chen Daoyin, a Shanghai-based political scientist, said that by hearkening back to Marxism and traditional Chinese culture, Xi was trying to legitimise his green policies.
"He is trying to elevate his policy preference to the level of philosophy, which is the science of all science," Chen said.
"He shows a strong preference for resorting to the ideology of communism and Chinese traditions for legitimacy of his policies."

Men's Ministry
We want to support and encourage you in your journey as a follower of Jesus Christ and understand the value of men getting together with other men in fellowship around God's Word, in service to others and in prayer. Any time is a great time for you to get connected to one of the on-going men's ministries here at Crossroads.
Men's Bible Study
This year we are using the study guide, The Attributes of God, by Dr. Steven Lawson. In this study, Dr. Lawson, a Ligonier Teaching Fellow, articulates a biblical understanding of divine attributes and explores how a right understanding of God can affect every aspect of our lives, inviting us to pursue a more intimate and worshipful relationship with him. There will be a time of fellowship with food following the study. We meet the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of every month from 7:30 — 9:00 p.m.
We will meet at Bud Downey's or Tony Capelli's — see the Calendar of Events for location, including the address, each week.
"Man lives by every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord." Deuteronomy 8:3
As part of this ministry men will have an opportunity to be involved with other men in small groups and grow in fellowship with one another.

Well, the British Psychological Society states that 'Psychology is the scientific study of people, the mind and behaviour.' Business psychology or occupational psychology (which is the chartered route for practicing psychology in the workplace) is basically the above, but in a work setting.
The chartered route is the higher qualification in the field and means an extra two years of study to reach the level at which you can use the label 'occupational psychologist'. You can also become a business psychologist; they do similar things but are usually only qualified to MSc level. I will discuss the qualifications needed to become both later in this article.
So, what do psychologists in the workplace do?
These are the basic blocks that make up the profession:
- Design of work environments
- Personnel selection and assessment
- Performance appraisal and career development
- Counselling and personal development
- Training
- Human-machine interaction
- Employee relations and motivation
- Organisational development and change
You might think that a lot of these sound similar to the role of human resources (HR)... well, they are! Much of what business psychologists can do is similar or aligned to what HR professionals do - training of employees; designing training; design of work environments (things like how your desk is set up, or, in factory spaces, how the machinery is set up to ensure safe and efficient working - also known as ergonomics); recruitment of staff; employee relations (employment law, pay / sickness / reward); performance appraisals (design and development of them, conducting appraisals and career development planning), to name a few.
The difference between a business psychologist's skill set and an HR person's skill set is that psychologists have a deeper understanding of the reasons behind behaviours, actions, emotions and moods in the workplace, and these are supported further by scientific enquiry. HR professionals have a deeper understanding of the transactional, legal and financial elements of many of the above topics.
There are also a few areas mentioned above that are less frequently covered by HR professionals:
Human-machine interaction studies how people and computers interact, including user interfaces and website design. From a psychological perspective, business psychologists have an understanding of how the brain works, how humans perceive things, how they remember things, what appeals and doesn't appeal when it comes to colours and design etc, so they can help with the design through their knowledge of human behaviour.
Counselling and personal development is probably the more traditional view of what psychologists do and includes things like careers counselling and coaching, mentoring and offering confidential counselling services in the workplace. Non-psychologists can also train to do these things, but I believe a psychology background provides a great foundation to work in these fields.
Lastly, organisational development and change is about managing how people adapt to change at work. Workplaces are changing all of the time; new systems, new processes, moving offices, new company objectives forcing changes in how people work with each other and cultural changes. This is very popular and is an area many business psychologists can get work. It is also now an area that is becoming more relevant within the HR field and many HR practitioners are training in change management. Again, my view is that the psychology background can be a great benefit in assessing and making changes in the workplace and gives psychologists the edge in this area of expertise.
So, that's a snap shot of what business psychologists cover. It's pretty varied but fundamentally it boils down to understanding people and what makes them work more effectively.
The average salaries of a business psychologist (occupational psychologist will usually demand more still) in the UK are roughly:
Qualified (usually higher
if self employed)
£35,000 - £80,000 or higher
Experienced 6 – 9 Years
£60,000 - £100,000 or higher
These salaries are completely dependent on your experience, talent, geographical location and of course what your employer can afford to pay you. It also depends on what area of business psychology you focus on. Change management, counselling and selection and assessment typically pay higher than recruitment for example. A large firm may pay you a generous wage if you work in house. But if you set up your own business rather than work for a large company you may get more money or less depending on how much work you get.
What Qualifications Are Needed?
As I mentioned earlier, there are two different routes – business psychologist and occupational psychologist (the chartered route).
In theory, anyone can call himself or herself a business psychologist, but traditionally a business psychologist has the following qualifications:
- A psychology degree
- An MSc in Occupational or Industrial Psychology
If you wish to become a chartered occupational psychologist, the degree and MSc listed above must have the Chartered Basis for Registration with the British Psychologist Society (BPS). Once you have this, you can apply to become charted and spend two years providing evidence for your practice. At the end of the two years you are awarded your chartered status. The British Psychological Society website provides more details if you are interested in this career path.
Professional Development
Becoming a chartered occupational psychologist is a long road and there is a need to constantly keep your skills current by attending regular courses and training and being registered with the appropriate bodies to enable you to practice and hold your occupational psychologist title.
As a business psychologist you are also required to keep your knowledge up to date, especially if you work for yourself and are looking for new business, but your practice is not assessed by the BPS. This is both a good a bad thing; good in that you are under less pressure to prove your worth (because your rates are less), bad in that someone with chartered status will likely get the work above you (although they will cost more!).
Career Prospects
These days business psychology and the HR fields are merging; HR is becoming more and more about aligning people to business - understanding what people can offer to help the business grow, and using HR practices and policies to do this. This is certainly not making the business psychologist role obsolete; it is making it more relevant. Business professionals are now beginning to see the value in psychology at work and the demand for our skills is on the increase.
It is hard work to make it to the top, but being a business psychologist is hugely rewarding and I highly recommend it. Dealing with people in their everyday settings and helping them to work more effectively, efficiently and be happier in the workplace is a challenge but you meet many different people from CEOs to PA's all with different issues, views and ideas. The challenge is finding a solution that suits everyone! The great thing is, once you have the basic principles and theories down, you can be as creative as you wish!

"Despite the resounding success of the UK-wide boiler scrappage scheme back in 2010 the Government has been unwilling to go down that route again. Almost 120,000 new high-efficiency boilers were installed under the scheme, but with an estimated 4 million inefficient boilers still working in UK homes there is a definite need for another scrappage drive.
"The Scottish Government has allocated an additional £500,000 to its scheme following the replacement of an additional 12,000 boilers in the last 12 months. It has more than proved its worth as a viable scheme to help homeowners cut fuel and to help reduce thousands of tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions. Alpha has been working closely with Government over its flagship Green Deal, but there is no doubt that we need an attractive and financially rewarding way to increase the rate of boiler replacements.
"There is no definite plan within current Green Deal proposals that would mirror the success of the boiler scrappage schemes. This is a tried and tested method that can have an immediate and long-lasting impact on the crippling fuel bills we've all been subjected to and we would do well to take heed of our northern cousins' success."

The REAL reason for Europe's crisis
BSSB.BE Gert Gouws 12.06.2018
* Here are with the reasons that the biggest migration of people to the continent since World War II is happening now. The most important is No. 1.
A complicated mix of war, weather and logistical considerations lies behind the extraordinary influx of refugees and migrants into Europe this summer.
- The war in Syria.
Syria's war has ground on for four years without end in sight. There is no meaningful diplomacy to end it. At least 250,000 have died.
That was a record year, too, as was the year before. An upsurge in conflicts worldwide has fueled record levels of displacement worldwide in recent years. People also are fleeing conflict in countries such as Iraq, Afghanistan, Eritrea, Somalia and Niger. But with Syrians accounting for the bulk of those, this is turning into the year when Syria's war washed up on the shores of Europe.
- The route to Europe got a lot easier.
Until recently, the sea crossing from Libya to Italy had been the preferred route for all the migrants and refugees fleeing to Europe. A far shorter and less dangerous sea route exists from Turkey to Greece. But the journey from Greece through the Balkans to the northern European destinations preferred by refugees was far more complicated than the one leading through Italy. After Macedonia lifted harsh measures aimed at preventing refugees from entering the country in June, the route through the Balkans opened up. Turkey is next door to Syria, and it is also more easily accessible for people coming from countries farther to the east, including refugees from Iraq and Afghanistan and economic migrants from Pakistan and Bangladesh.
- The price dropped.
This is linked to reason No. 2. The crossing to Greece from Turkey takes less than an hour and as little as 20 minutes, depending on which beach the boat sets out from. Not only does this make the sea crossing cheaper, but refugees no longer needed to pay smugglers to sneak them through the borders of the Balkan countries. People planning to make the journey say they now need to pay smugglers no more than $2,000 to $3,000 to complete the journey instead of the $5,000 to $6,000 required to reach Libya and take the boat to Italy.
That means more people – many of whom were saving for the trip anyway – can afford to take the journey now.
- The weather.
It is normal for illegal migration into Europe to peak during the summer months, when the sea crossings are safer. One reason there is a big scramble now is that a lot of people are trying to make the journey before bad weather sets in.
Given all the other reasons people are trying reach Europe now, it is hard to predict whether the onset of winter will slow down the pace of arrivals. One thing is clear: there will be more fatalities.
- Germany's extension of welcome to refugees.
Huge numbers were already on the march when German Chancellor Angela Merkel announced that Germany would offer temporary residency to all the refugees arriving there. But there seems little doubt that the offer encouraged more people to set out. Iraqis have begun to join the exodus in bigger numbers, and many of those arriving recently in Turkey to make the trip say they were encouraged by the TV footage of Germans welcoming refugees. Whether the new border controls introduced by Germany, Hungary, Austria and Slovakia will deter people who have not yet set out remains to be seen.
- The Syrian government's conscription drive.
Short of manpower to fight the rebellion against his rule, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's government has embarked since late last year on a drive to enlist reservists to serve in the army.
- The Syrian government has made it easier for Syrians to travel.
This might seem to contradict No. 6. But there appears to be no attempt to prevent young men who want to avoid military service from leaving the country. On the contrary, the government has made it easier to acquire passports in recent months – both in Syria and at embassies abroad – and it is possible to defer the military service with a payment of $300.
This has confirmed the suspicions of many Syria watchers that Assad has deliberately encouraged the refugee flow, both to neighboring countries and to Europe, as part of a strategy to empty the country of potential opponents.
Assad, however, blames Europe and the United States for the exodus, saying most of the refugees are fleeing the "terrorism" that he accuses the West of fomenting by supporting elements of the opposition.
- The shortcomings of the underfunded international aid effort.
Before this massive influx of people to Europe, 4 million Syrians had already fled their country's war to neighboring countries, mostly to Turkey, Jordan and Lebanon. There they are living miserable lives, denied the right to work, and most of the children are not in school. Many of the refugees headed for Europe who were already living as refugees cite their children's education as the main reason they are seeking to build new lives.

LONDON (MarketWatch) -- Pitney Bowes PBI, +4.56% said first-quarter net income dropped to $145 million, or 65 cents a share, from $154 million, or 67 cents a share, while revenue rose to $1.41 billion from $1.36 billion. From continuing operations, the mail and messaging management equipment maker earned 66 cents a share. Analysts polled by Thomson Financial expected earnings of 67 cents a share on revenue of $1.43 billion. "The underlying trends in our business remain solid. However, our revenue growth this quarter was softer than anticipated due to delays in orders for mailing equipment and software in the U.S. and weaker sales in Europe," said Chairman and CEO Michael Critelli. Second-quarter revenue is seen rising 8% to 11% and annual revenue is seen rising 7% to 10% , and adjusted earnings are seen between 68 cents and 72 cents for the quarter and $2.90 to $2.98 for the year. Analysts had forecast second-quarter earnings of 70 cents a share and 2007 EPS at $2.93.

You should be a stylist, decorator, merchant, salesperson, something……..
Not sure if my passion for wanting to be a housewife and stay at home mom was a decision I made because of my lack of confidence to do anything else or what seemed at the time, one that I had dreamt about my whole life and thought was so important.
I've dabbled in many extra curricular activities along the way, which always seem to cost me more money than I ever earned and although many compliments and encouragements would roll in, having the drive to take any talent to the next level was always lost on me.
When I found Casa Teresa (shelter for women who are pregnant and alone) and used my skills, I felt blessed beyond any monetary reward and was sure that this must be my calling.
And then cancer. It didn't take me long to discover that Casa Teresa was really preparing me for a much bigger calling.
I discovered that all the talents that I possessed, the love I have for fashion, beautiful objects, decorating and sharing with others led me to a platform for what I truly believe is the reason I was born.
I was destined to become The Cancer Fashionista.
I know that with each warrior I meet because of this, I am more confident than ever, that I found that something.

Create a New Culture
In a group as fluid and large as Linked:HR change is not accomplished in a matter of months. The group is too large to stay still, too loose to depend on only one strong leader. Instead, Linked:HR needs a large team of leaders who are committed to its success in the long run. Recruiting and training new leaders, therefore, is probably one of Dr. Wildermuth's key ongoing challenges.

The realignment continues. More and more the Anglicans are banding together in regions as members of the Common Cause Partnership. Since this region does not have its own American bishop yet, they will be represented by a Collegiate Vicar for now. The Anglican District of Virginia is represented by Bishop David Bena (local), as well as Bishop John Guernsey and Bishop Martyn Minns (national). Watch this space. From here.
NEWPORT BEACH, CA — June 14, 2008–- Bishop Robert Duncan, Moderator of The Common Cause Partnership (CCP), appointed a "Collegiate Vicar" for The Association of Western Anglican Congregations. The decision was announced to the Western Anglicans House of Delegates meeting in Newport Beach today. As the Collegiate Vicar, The Rev. Bill Thompson, Rector of All Saints Anglican Church in Long Beach, California, will serve as an ambassadorial link between Western Anglicans — a cluster of 21 orthodox Anglican congregations in Southern California and Arizona — and the Common Cause Partnership (CCP).
"The appointment of the Collegiate Vicar is a wonderful step in the process of unifying orthodox Anglican believers in North America," said Ron Speers, Western Anglicans President. "We are modeling at the grass roots what CCP is doing at the national and international level." Thus far Western Anglican member congregations have canonical ties to the Anglican Province of the Southern Cone of South America, The Anglican Province of Uganda, and The Reformed Episcopal Church. All Common Cause Partners churches in the region, whatever their jurisdiction, are invited to participate.
"We've already deployed dozens of clergy and laity in shared ministries, as we await developments at the national level," Fr. Bill Thompson explained. "And we're not about to recreate the dysfunctional model of top-down management," he said. Fr. Russell Martin, Rector of St. Timothy and St. Titus Anglican Church in San Diego, California, concurred. "We're all about the historic Christian faith that's based on the deity of Jesus Christ and the authority of Holy Scripture," he said. "Ministry happens person-to-person at the grass roots level. A hierarchy can't make it happen. We're looking forward to bishops who defend the historic faith, who share the faith with the unchurched and plant new churches, not just leaders wielding monarchical power."
"Hopefully, the appointment of the Collegiate Vicar for us can serve as a model for other CCP-related church clusters elsewhere in the country," Speers said.
The Western Anglicans Board of Directors elected The Rev. Bill Thompson Chairman and CEO, succeeding Speers, a lay person, who continues as President and Chief Administrative Officer. Fr. Thompson also serves as Dean of the Western Convocation of the Anglican Communion Network.

This park of the future rose out of a relic of the past.
The city excavated the site of an old railway yard and built the park over an underground garage.
"We turned an eyesore into a tour de force of art and architecture," said Chicago Mayor Richard Daley at the opening ceremony.
Blair Kamin, architecture critic for The Chicago Tribune, says, "It's really a park about the future. It's like walking into the future."
"You don't really so much look at nature in this park. You look at the objects," he says. "This huge eruption of metal. That enormous jellybean. These tower-like fountains."
- The highlights of the park include:
- The Crown Fountain The faces of 1,000 Chicagoans were photographed for Spanish sculptor Juame Plensa's Crown Fountain. The images are projected on two giant LCD screens that buttress the water.
- The Bean Folks literally can't keep their hands off sculptor Anish Kapoor's giant archway to the skies.
This is one of the largest installations of public art in the world," says Kamin. "But also, it's fabulous because it weighs 110 tons, but it just tantalizingly touches the ground."
"And I can't reach up and touch the sky," he adds. "But that sculpture brings the sky right down where I can just touch the untouchable. It's fantastic."
Kapoor named his work "Cloud Gate," but most folks just call it the Bean - as in jellybean.
- Pritzker Pavilion For fans of form and function, there's this: The Pritzker Pavilion, home to free concerts. It was designed by renowned architect Frank Gehry.
"Look at this thing. This is two football fields long by a football field wide," says Kamin. "And what's really great about this is that the people in those red seats and the people on this lawn are all in one single space."
"This is a symbol of democracy, a symbol of togetherness. The person all the way at the back can hear the concert as well as the person all the way up in the front."
"There is a magical relationship between audience and performer," says Gehry. "Here it's 15,000 people, so it's pretty hard to get the last guy to feel like he's part of the thing. It needed to feel big enough that the people in the back row felt that they were part. It needed to engage them."
- Footbridge Gehry also designed a footbridge. "Well, what's special about this bridge is that it's a bridge to nowhere. I mean people come on this bridge and they walk across and they stop and they come right back," says Kamin.
"The big deal was, it wasn't going to cost taxpayers a dime. It was going to be paid all through parking revenues... And the mayor literally said it would be no cost to taxpayers," said Liam Ford, who covers politics for The Chicago Tribune. "It cost taxpayers $100 million."
And there's that other numbers problem. Millennium Park opened four years after the millennium.
"They started the project in '98, they wanted to get it done for the millennium in 2000.... So, they started building it before they had the plans finished," says Ford. "And the costs just kept going up and up as they added more things.... And it just spiraled out of control."
The rush to the millennium finish line led to structural mistakes and construction mistakes. Costs, in turn, swelled to $475 million, more than triple the original estimate.
Still, to most Chicagoans, the result is priceless.
"It's like the Eiffel Tower of Chicago," says one park patron.
