What are the key differences between grievance and disciplinary procedures?

There are a number of key differences between grievance and disciplinary procedures. Make sure you know what these are so you can use these procedures effectively.
If you don't deal with employee complaints properly, they could fester and you could have a real problem or even a strike on your hands.
Luckily, you can stop this with a proper grievance policy and procedure.
Let's look at an example of when an employee can lodge a grievance and how it's different to a disciplinary procedure...
Example of a grievance: Mr Mokaba, a junior employee, complains that his superior, Mr White, makes statements about him in the presence of other employees that he believes are racist.
This makes him feel uncomfortable. He also feels that this has been an affront to his dignity. He lodges a grievance with you.
What would you do about this complaint?
How to respond to a grievance
You need to take the complaint seriously and investigate if what Mr Mokaba is saying is true. If it is, you need to take action against Mr White. But Mr White's also entitled to fair treatment in this process.
To deal with this sort of situation properly you need to know the difference between a grievance process and a disciplinary process.
The key differences between grievance and disciplinary procedures explained
Grievance procedures:
#1: An employee lodges a grievance.
#2: A grievance procedure can have many stages.
The Practical Guide to Human Resources Management explains that, if, for example, you have a small business, you won't have a grievance procedure with five different managerial levels. This is because you'll run out of people to hear the grievance before you get to the end of the procedure.
But, if you're a large business you'll need a number of different stages or levels to hear grievances. This means it only goes to the highest level after the lower level managers try solve it.
#3: In grievance proceedings you'll be trying to find an outcome that meets an employee's requirements to resolve the issue.
Disciplinary procedures
#1: Unlike a grievance where an employee acts first, here you're the one who'll start the disciplinary process.
#2: A disciplinary procedure ONLY has two stages in relation to a specific disciplinary incident. These are the hearing and the appeal. If you don't provide for an appeal then it'll only have one stage.
Don't confuse this point with the different stages of corrective action you can apply in a disciplinary procedure depending on how serious the offence is, such as verbal and written warnings.
In a disciplinary process, you'll impose the decision you think is appropriate according to the facts of the case.
It's that simple. Knowing the difference between grievance and disciplinary procedures will help ensure you use these procedures effectively in your workplace.

We receive many letters from the families we've served, thanking us for our caring ways during their time of loss. Their words warm our hearts, and speak to you of our professionalism, compassion, and the true value of the services we provide.
September 01, 2017
I wanted to pass along my sincerest thank you and appreciation for making the most difficult day of my life easier. You were able to lift my spirits in honoring my amazing son, Andrew, and I did not think it would be possible. I have heard from so many that attended the beautiful service just how lovely everything was. But beyond that, it was the care and love of how Karen Reardon treated us, how effortless she made it for us and the genuine love and support from her. While my family and I are still trying to start the long road of piecing our lives together, Karen and Heritage started us off in a positive and loving direction. Thank you from me, my family and Andrew.Jorge Cruz

To Robert: A mere traditional thank you card, no matter how well versed, could not begin to express how eternally grateful and thankful I am for all of your assistance, and I am convinced that you were hand-chosen to serve me in my time of need. Your very genuine authentic caring, kindness and compassion rendered premium service far beyond dollars and cents. I will forever be thankful for your shining light, and your very special kindred spirit. Thank GOD for you and the entire Heritage and GOD bless you and yours. Sincerely, Faye RobinsonFaye Robinson

Dear Mr. High: The family of Charles L. Register wants to thank you for your kindness and professional help with his funeral. Karen Reardon was a great help and comfort to our family. Her professional knowledge was greatly appreciated. It was a pleasure meeting you and your staff. Everyone worked to make this transition run smoothly and with dignity. The gentlemen who picked up Charlie (in our home) were so kind and professional. They took him out with dignity. Thank you for your entire staff's caring and gracious spirit and again, thank you for everything. Sincerely, The Register FamilyThe Charles Register Family

The past month has been one of sadness and shock for our families as we try to deal with the passing of our dear and sweet Beth. Through this trauma we were grateful for the excellent service and compassion shown to us by your staff. In particular we want to express our heartfelt appreciation for Karen Reardon. Her understanding of our grief and needs was an incredible support to us. She provided us with gentle and realistic guidance as we made all the choices that needed to be made. Her insight and skill were so helpful. Most of all her genuine caring and support provided us solace and trust. she shared much more with us than excellent service and professional advice. She listened to our thoughts, gave suggestions and most of all made us feel like she respected and knew our Beth. We will always be grateful. She is a blessing and represents Heritage well!The Edes and Pellin Families

"Karen was my first contact when my father passed in Jan 2014. My sister reached out to the cemetery to inquire about procedures and details in the couple of months prior to his passing. Karen was not only helpful, she was very professional and attentive to our family's needs at the time, but after dad's passing, when my siblings and I decided to pre-plan our own personal arrangements, Karen has continued to be the "go to" person for our entire family. She's shown compassion in dealing with the family, detailed, knowledgeable and attentive to questions. She has helped immensely in making the pre-planning details easy to manuever and I feel very comfortable in offering a recommendation for Karen."Linda Hale

Karen: Laura and I wanted to thank you for the heartwarming care you took with us this afternoon. We've been through a lot of situations in our lives, but losing my mother has been one of the hardest. Today, Karen, you helped to soften this difficult time. Your professional caring attitude took us by the hand and said it was going to be ok....and it was. I'm sure we will look back, at some point, and say Karen Reardon helped us to say goodbye to mom with respect, dignity and lots of love. HUGS, Colleen Vandermark and Laura MessinaColleen Vandermark and Laura Messina

Harris, Robert and Shawn: We are overwhelmed and grateful to you for making the passing and funeral for my mother so much easier. You each have God given talents and use them well. Sincerely, Nora TurkNora Turk

It took a lot of looking around to find that special place for my Momma to be laid to rest. We looked and there were nice places but it wasn't until I walked into Heritage that "IT" hit me. This was it, this was the place. Planning a service for your Momma at 31 years old is probably the hardest thing I could ever imagine doing. My Momma was my whole entire world. My heart. I didn't know how I would even begin. From the moment I walked in the door and met Karen I just felt this presence of love. I didn't for one second feel it was a business trying to run, it felt like a family, taking my family into their home and helping every step of the way. I wanted perfection for my Momma's service, because it was the last gift that I could give to my perfect Momma. Everyone was so amazing. People who I didn't even deal with on a regular basis through the process. I can remember their compassion. I remember coming in the afternoon of the service and Robert just walked up and hugged me. It was exactly what I needed at that moment. Just someone to make me feel that everything was alright. I remember Shawn being there and being so very kind and helpful. I know there were many more people who were there helping every step of the way and I wish that I could remember everyone who was there helping. But to everyone involved from beginning to end I just want to give my most heartfelt thank you. Each and everyone of you have made the last gift I could give to my Momma something beautiful and amazing. You have no idea what that has meant to me. You are all special people beyond words that I can express. And thank you for taking my family and me into your home and giving my Momma this one last precious gift.Eric Strube

Dear Karen: Just wanted to thank you and to tell you how we appreciated your help. Your selections for the pastor (Chris Baucom) just great! Everyone was impressed with the food. Mellorinas Catering did a great job. You are wonderful person! I hope you are around when I die to help my children. Please give my thanks to all who helped.Rachel Yancey

Robin, seeing you again reminded me of the compassion and comfort you offered me during the process of making arrangements and the actual day of the funeral. I didn't take the time to thank you for all you did for me and my sister's memory back in September when she passed away. I would not have been able to handle it without you. I have never had to do anything like that before and I am so glad you were there to help me through it. The service was beautiful and I know was everything my sister wanted. Thank you so much for being there for me. You are definitely a huge asset to Heritage Funeral Home! Sincerely, BettyBetty
May 05, 2014
Dear Heritage Funeral Staff, what can I say except you are so perfect. You made me feel at home, at ease and you took care of us. We appreciate you so much. You made my sister so proud and went beyond the call of duty. We love all of you! Thanks! SarahSarah

Mr. High, I recently lost my father and had no idea where or whom to go to. Your company came highly recommended. I wanted to let you know that Shawn Woody and the team at the Matthews facility were remarkable. Shawn went out of his way to help me and my family have the most wonderful celebration of my fathers life that we could ever imagine, including arranging the Marine Honor Guard for my dad which was so wonderful and moving. Shawn was truly hands on, handled every detail and made a very hard time for all of us a little bit easier to handle. My highest compliments to Shawn and the others who worked with us. Thank you for your time. Dawn CDawn C

5/7/2013 Karen and Robert at the Weddington/Matthews Location took care of my Father's funeral. This funeral had great complexity due to coordinating with the national cemetery service in Fort Jackson, SC, and a very large and busy church in the Matthews area. I can say candidly that the team at Heritage Weddington take thier jobs VERY seriously, and went to great lengths to secure the proper military honors ceremony for my father at Fort Jackson. We had a series of issues with the National Cemetery Service, none of which were the fault of Heritage, yet the team at Heritage stepped in, and "owned the problem" just like you want any service provider to do (yet they rarely do), exhibiting true grace under pressure to mop up the mess that others created. They spent DAYS making phone calls on our behalf to countless organizations and individuals to get things orginally organized, then when the system broke, fixed, and reorganized. The people at Heritage have a friend in me, and I can't convey my gratitude enough for how tirelessly they worked to make sure the funeral and burial and other arrangements were perfect. They are compassionate, empathetic, meticulous, punctual, and accountable, exactly what you need when you knocked down and on your knees, and in my case, thousands of miles from the deceased. I highly recommend Karen and the team at Heritage to anyone in need of a turnkey solution in their time of greatest needMatt Raubacher

Karen, Thanks for being the kind of person who makes such a big difference. I wanted to thank you for all your help, compassion and guidance you provided to my mom and my family during our recent loss of our father/husband, William Klimczak. It made this difficult time much easier. I can't sing your praises enough. Thanks again! Cindy HamiltonCindy Hamilton

My wife - Margaret "Peggy" Petruso - was admitted to the hospital on May 5. The following week, we learned that she had cancer. She passed away on the evening of May 16 at Levine & Dickson Hospice House at Southminister. Her funeral arrangements were handled by Heritage in Matthews and she now rests at peace in the columbarium in the Garden of St. Matthew at Forest Lawn East. I am writing on behalf of Peggy, our children Jon and Ann, our family, and myself to commend and thank your staff for the excellent care they provided Peggy and our family in handling her funeral arrangements. Karen Reardon initially helped make the arrangements, and Robert Murphy made additional arrangements, met us at Levine & Dickson Hospice House at Southminster, and directed the interment in the columbarium. We are very grateful for their professionalism, guidance, and compassion. We are especially grateful to Mr. Murphy for being so patient and accommodating in responding to our particular needs and many questions. We are also very pleased with the location of the columbarium and the peaceful, park-like setting of the cemetery. We know that Peggy rests comfortably. Thank you for the compassionate service you and your staff provide. Sincerely, Santo "SandY' J. Petruso and the Petruso Family.Santo "Sandy" J. Petruso and the Petruso Family

The 2010 Montreal Irish RFC banquet promised to be the premiere event in the MIRFC social calendar and patrons were not disappointed.
The chosen venue (Sul Viale – Upper Lachine) was laid out perfectly with two screens at either end allowing all members to see the various entertaining and nostalgic slide shows that had been prepared by event hosts Neale McDevitt and Dave Crandall.
Dining Room (before we arrived)
The evening started with a cocktail hour and some rolling video footage of the Men's 1st Division final. When the reel repeated at the end of the evening it was unclear if the shaking was due to the camerawork or the vino-induced swaying of many of the viewers.
As expected in this historic year it was a sell-out attendance and everyone made an extra special effort towards sartorial elegance. Neale had even combed his hair.
Stereo MC's – Neale and Dave
After an hour or so the jovial crowd took their seats for some delicious plates of antipasto and the beginning of the awards show.
First up were the ladies awards with four prizes in all; MVP 1st XV, MVP 2nd XV , Most Improved Player and Rookie of the Year.
A huge congratulation goes to the much deserved winners:
– MVP 1st XV Ali Oshefsky (in absentia)
A flying flanker with a natural talent for line out jumping, Ali really raised her game in 2010 and stepped up to provide some great performances in the 2010 season.
Most Valuable Player 2nd XV Arielle Lavender
Arielle has improved steadily over her past few years with the Irish and her natural pace ensured that she was a key member of the women's set up in 2010. A flying winger with great potential she will no doubt be pushing for her place on the 1st XV.
Most Improved Player Taylor-Shannon Baruchel
Being relatively new to rugby Taylor demonstrated a very steep learning curve from her 2009 season and it was obvious to all that she took her performances very seriously in 2010. Relishing her position in the front row, Taylor benefitted greatly from being involved with the very successful Concordia Stingers team of 2010 and will no doubt go on to impress further in 2011.
Rookie of the Year Kate Parkinson
New to the Irish in 2010, Kate settled into the team very quickly and has a remarkably calm presence on the field for such a young girl. With the ability to pass, kick and think quickly Kate will be a valuable part of the Irish set up for the years to come and we are very happy she chose the Irish.
Dinner then continued with a simple but very tasty pasta dish. Penne in a tomato sauce with fresh basil and was cooked perfectly as was to be expected in a well reputed Italian restaurant.
The Antipasto Course
Next came some of the photos most members wish had never been snapped and Neale had pulled together a highly entertaining "Beverly Hills or just Hillbilly" slide show that showed members looking their best and yes you've guessed it – their straw munching, chicken chasing, cousin cuddling, chateauguay worst.
Having taken much of the heat throughout the year for many ridiculous on and off field, ice cream chasing poses – I watched this highlight reel – breath held. Fortunately it seems there were many jewels kept under lock and key until Saturday night and the crowd were laughing hysterically at the hero to zero theme of this presentation.
Next up was a special presentation for the coaching staff whose tireless efforts were recognised with the presentation of a commemorative beer glass engraved with the MIRFC logo and a hat to keep three of their five balding heads warm in the off-season. There were also some special announcements. Sadly after years of service to the club, Neale will not be coaching the women's team next year and we want to thank him again for everything he has done – a genuine club man through and through.
It was also announced that Ian Baillie will become the men's senior head coach for 2011 and we welcome him to the Irish and look forward to taking advantage of his knowledge and experience next year. Andy Tolson who had a remarkable success rate last year as coach is committed in 2011 to playing with the team and working in a developmental coaching role and the club again would like to seriously thank Andy for his efforts in what was one of the most successful in the club's history.
Next up were some more comical snaps and photo-shop wizardry to make for some great entertainment.
There was a special presentation of bouquets of flowers for the Athletic Therapists in recognition of their commitment last season and helping keep players fit and injury free to help us achieve our goals.
Dinner was served and both the short rib of beef and eggplant parmagiana were very well received by guests all of whom were very complimentary towards the flavour and portion size of the meal.
Main Course
The meal was rounded off by the men's award presentations and the decisions were tough according to coaches in a season were all players were committed to winning three cups.
First up was "Rookie of the Year" and although there were fitting nominations – young Xavier Lindley fittingly took the prize in what was his first season of senior rugby.
Most Improved Player: Etienne Labrie (for being a dynamic force in all areas of the game. Playing back row and front row equally well and being a stand out performer every time he took the field this season. Not to mention his selfless commitment to the club by making himself available wherever needed this year especially on Finals day).
3rd XV – MVP: Steven Boire (for his commitment and rapid development throughout the season – topped off by a match winning try in the grand final).
2nd XV MVP: Rob (Number 2) Lowe: (for his complete dominance of the mid field in the 2nd Division League in both attack and defence, and scoring five tries in one game).
1st XV MVP: Gary MacDougall (for consistently solid performances and work rate in the front row in every single game of the season. Gary's performance and attitude is reflective of the successes of the team in 2010).
MVP 1st XV Gary (Turd Ferguson) MacDougall
Captain of the Year: Bob Meunier (for taking the 2nd XV to the finals in an undefeated season and having the experience and class to take defeat in the last game as simply a challenge for the team in 2011).
In tribute to the truly international flavour of the 2010 MIRFC 1st XV there was a special presentation to the backline with T-Shirts displaying the flags of the players respective Home Unions. Kudos to the photographer for also capturing a very rare sight indeed as you will see below.
T-Shirt with flags of countries represented in 1st XV back line
A rare shot of Morgan actually putting a shirt on!!
Mr McDevitt followed this presentation and gave a very touching eulogy to the never to be forgotten and much loved Des O'Neill and added a well appreciated sentiment to the evening and summarised nicely what the Montreal Irish RFC is all about.
Finally there was the Jimmy Gordon Club Person of the Year award which went to Sheena Stinson for all her efforts throughout the entire season at the clubhouse in keeping all members well fed, watered and in comfort. It was fitting that this was presented whilst members rounded off their meal with coffee and delicious Guinness (yes Guinness) cupcakes and a MIRFC cake all baked by Sheena's own fair hands.
There were of course some pictures of near nudity from many members before the dining tables were cleared away and members danced and drank into the wee small hours, eventually taking off home to reflect and dream about what was no doubt a wonderful season.
2011 here we come!

Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, Mathew Kuka, has commended the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission for maintaining a clean and orderly facility for detention.
Bishop Kuka paid an unscheduled visit to the facility yesterday where he prayed for detained Musiliu Obanikoro, Femi Fani-Kayode and Reuben Abati.
They have been held on allegations of looting the country's treasury through the office of the National Security Adviser.
The cleric expressed satisfaction with the care received by the detainees who he said were looking cheerful.
The Acting Chairman of EFCC, Ibrahim Magu who conducted the cleric round the facility enjoined the public to see the detention of some alleged Nigerians as a fight against corruption but not a personal agenda.

You've just been invited to a beat-freaking Dayglow party.
It seems Miami's Committee Entertainment is getting superserious, doing absolutely everything (including buying a huge I-95 billboard) to make sure the next local installment of its annual Dayglow Tour will be bigger and badder than ever. The Committee has even moved the paint-spraying rave to the Miami Beach Convention Center and hired Swedish progressive-house stunner Alesso to set the soundtrack.
What began as a college campus phenomenon in 2006 has now become a worldwide affair. Since Dayglow's last local bash at the BankUnited Center in 2011, the Committee has toured the world, from London to Melbourne, appealing to humankind's most undeniable, primitive impulse. And really, who doesn't love dancing half-naked and covered in glowing paint all night? So break out your throw-away white shorts and tanks; then get there early enough to catch sets from Turkish house DJ Deniz Koyu and Dayglow regular David Solano.
Dayglow Tour Miami: Life in Color
Dayglow Tour Miami: Life in Color: With Alesso, Deniz Koyu, and David Solano. 8 p.m. Friday, June 29, at the Miami Beach Convention Center, 1901 Convention Center Dr., Miami Beach; dayglowtour.com. Tickets cost $37.80 to $74.90 plus fees via ticketmaster.com. Ages 17 and up.

How to Catch a Cheating Spouse Like a Pro
How to Catch a Cheating Spouse – So you believe your spouse is cheating? Hopefully if you are reading this article you have good reason to believe your spouse is cheating on you. You are not here simply because he didn't answer his phone or he didn't call you back within a reasonable time frame.You are reading this article because your gut feelings tells you, he may be cheating.
He's been giving all the signs that possibly there may be another woman and this has been going on for a while. Your relationship is not the same, he's not the same. You are tired of arguing and crying about it. You need answers, so you can either enjoy being in your relationship, work on it, or decide if you should leave it. With that being said lets discuss how to to catch a cheating spouse PI (Private Investigator) Style….
Catch a Cheating Spouse PI Style
The best way to catch a cheating spouse is not to be lazy. You have to get up and get involved in catching him. Stop relying on checking his email and trying to get his cell phone. Technology is making that not a good method for catching a cheating spouse. Have you picked up an Android phone? Jesus, trying to riffle through all the app's and find information can be a little intimidating. It's not like the old flip phones, where everything was well… simple to figure out. Forget email, he could have a hundred and one of those!
If he's says he's going out, Ask him where he'll be and you make sure you find a clever way to "be there" without him knowing.
Ask if he would sign up for mobile video chat with you. So the both of you can video chat when ever you call. This little tactic makes it inconvenient for him to just tell you any old thing about where he's at. Of course you don't tell him this is the reason for video chat. If he refuses or seem hesitant. Be ware!
Do your own surveillance. Be in places he's most likely to be doing his cheating. Be aware of everything such as the cars in the parking lot, people he's hanging out with etc.
You will need a way of logging your findings either via photo, audio recordings and/or having a notebook ready to jot information down such as car descriptions and addresses. This will help you recognize patterns, such as the same car always parked next to your spouses when he's staying late at work. Don't rely on your memory. Get it down in print so it's easy to refer back to and you have no doubts.
Keep in mind being in places to watch his coming and going takes a lot of time and effort. You may not get the information you need right away. So patience and keeping your cool is a must. Never ever, hint on your findings with him in conversation. He'll suspect you been watching him. Don't blow your cover, especially if you don't have the cold hard evidence you need.
Be smart. Don't ever put your life in danger by being out late or in areas that just don't look safe. Don't be sloppy. If you can't do "surveillance" without it being obvious, don't do it.
Get a pal you trust to come along so you are sure to keep your cool in the event you see something you don't like. You are only to observe, not confront. Also they can keep your notes while you focus on driving.
With this however, there are laws you have to watch in which I'll point out later. People do have a right to privacy whether or not they are cheating. So it's best to know the law before you become "Inspector Catch Cheating Spouse".
How to Catch Him Cheating Like a Pro
You can also hire a Private Investigator that is well equip to get the information you need. Best of all, he or she knows the law. Check with an attorney or your state PI organization.
You will need to sign an agreement spelling out the details of how information will be relayed to you, payment, confidentiality , etc. Make sure the Private Investigator is a reputable one and has done many other "successful" cases. Successful meaning, he/she did a thorough job in trying to discover if a spouse was cheating or not.
Be sure to give them all the information you have gathered to get them started in the right direction. They will need phone numbers, addresses, vehicle identification, photo's …. etc. Once you feel comfortable you can move forward. Be prepared however, sometimes the person your spouse is cheating with can be someone you know. Prepare for anything, but hope for the best.
You Have a Right to Know if you have a Cheating Spouse
You don't have to rely on his word. Especially if his word has proven to be faulty in the past. For peace of mind, you need to actually see him in action when his word doesn't satisfy you. You need something he can't talk his way out of. Sure you can employ things like keyloggers, and cell phone spysoftware, but there's nothing like having evidence that even the best liar couldn't get out of.
It's becoming harder and harder to catch a cheating spouse. There's nothing like being with someone you feel you can't trust or have doubts about. So if the signs that he is cheating are clearly there, get the peace of mind you need. Wouldn't he do the same? Maybe so.
If you are wondering How to catch a cheating spouse, I hope this article has helped you come up with a plan and understand your options.
How to Catch a Cheating Spouse – Know the Law
When doing things such as eavesdropping or taking photo's. It's usually acceptable to do it in a public setting, like at a park or restaurant. But you can't do it where a person expect privacy such as in their home or in a bathroom, public or private.
When taking photo's or doing surveillance its usually acceptable from publicly accessible places. However, being on private property and/or trespassing is not acceptable.
Should you employ keyloggers and spy equipment be sure you are not breaking any privacy laws in your state. Be especially careful if you want this gathered information to be used in court to prove why you are asking for a divorce. If you broke the law, your spouse can use that against you and/or say you manipulated the documents.
Know the law before you jump right in. You do not want to risk getting in legal trouble. Always be smart, don't lose your head.
Conclusion to Catching a Cheating Spouse
Know when it's time to stop looking for the answer you may already know. Don't let this consume your life. Depending on what you find will determine how you move forward in your relationship. Should you find that your spouse has been cheating and you have solid hard core evidence, you will need to plan how to confront him. Don't just start throwing the evidence at him. Sure it will be hard not to do, but you should keep a cool level head at all times.
If you find he is cheating, listen to your mate. If he fesses up and begs for forgiveness , that could be a sign he still wants to stay with you. If he blames you for everything and denies he's cheating then maybe he's not interested in staying in the relationship. You will need to listen to what he's saying to understand where's he's coming from. Then you decide if you are willing to forgive him or move on.

Newark, Ohio Courthouse Repairs And Canal District Farmers Market Opening
Construction began this week on the Licking County Courthouse. There are many other improvements being done in downtown Newark, Ohio.
The first fully completed project will be the Canal District Farmers Market, a big win for EBT card holders as so much of the farmer's market has been dedicated to their needs. This will be a welcome addition to an area with so many on the EBT system looking for ways to convert their taxpayer provided EBT food budgets into more than just what local grocers offer. There will be a token system in place that will allow EBT credit to be freely traded in creative ways at the market.
The market will provide an easy way for Canal Market District vendors to collect on the EBT system without the usual accountability procedures that restrict purchases at common retail outlets. The simple application process described on the Canal District website will be helpful for any vendor looking for an added revenue stream.
The community continues to look with wonder as each new phase of the downtown projects are revealed.
New Subway In Newark, Ohio

2015 Newark, Ohio Reconstruction Starts
A long project to reconstruct Newark, Ohio's downtown has begun. I give up following this much because it's convoluted at best. I think it's designed to be that way.
The apparent leader of the project is ReNewark. It's a legal organization called a Community Improvement Corporation. I think they used to call similar illegal partnerships something else. It's where wealthy private individuals and organizations work in concert with public officials to get things done in ways that favor the private entities and the politicians, but not necessarily the public. The public's part is just to pay for the majority of the work.
I researched ReNewark the best I could and I came up pretty empty handed. I can't find any legal documents for the partnership. I've e-mailed to ask exactly who they are, but no reply. All that you get is a website. If you want to know who is redesigning Newark, Ohio, this is all that they tell you about who "they" are. "Newark Development Partners is a collaborative venture engaging the public and private sectors…".
Property owners in the downtown area are really enthusiastic with the gift that every other taxpayer is bestowing on them. Imagine buying a run down house in an area, then the government comes in and improves not only your property, but every property around you. Who wouldn't be enthusiastic about that? Some have described it as a dream coming true.
Will it be successful? Will the costs be so harmful that the taxpayers won't be able to spend money in the newly renovated area? It's a fine line. Since the taxpayer has been removed from the decision making process on this, I'll just sit back, watch, and enjoy.
Newark, Ohio Downtown Project
There's a new $4,000,000 project in the works for Downtown Newark, Ohio. The plan is for a farmer's market, public restrooms, and a park-like area. This plan rendering was passed out by Wachtel & McAnally.
I went and listened to the speech where the speakers thoroughly discussed the history of canal street and explained that they wanted to bring the area back to it's place of prominence. They feel that these plans for a farmer's market and "green space" will do the trick. The new Canal District Market plan was shrouded in secrecy(with numerous leaks of course) and it was announced that it would be a public/private agreement with the TJ Evans Foundation. It's easy to get lost in the details from that point, at least it was for me.
I'd like to say this will be nice. It probably will be. The problem is that much of it makes no sense. There has been a constant complaint about parking in downtown Newark, Ohio. Many like myself just don't get it. There is plenty of parking right where this project is going to take place. That does not stop The Downtown Newark Association, every new round of politicians, and government employees from constantly spending money on studies to show that Newark needs grants and other forms of tax dollars to improve the parking. Along comes this project that detracts from the amount of parking and I see these groups applauding the effort. It makes the claim of lack of parking as the primary reason for the decline of Newark's downtown seem like even more of a fallacy.
It will be interesting to see the project happen regardless of the confusion and questionable spending surrounding it. I also await the outcome of what the effect of a project like this really does for the area.
And The Real Name Of State Route 13 Is…
This is just annoying. Everyone is used to referring to State Route 13 as 4th Street, but now they've added another name, "Reese-LeFevre Parkway". It's sure to add confusion to any visitor not familiar with Newark, Ohio.
Right now, it is easy to point out craziness in Newark, Ohio and this is just another more recent change to the downtown. The added signage really doesn't add any value, but does add confusion.
Federal Fountain – Cracked!
A new fountain was installed on the Licking County Courthouse lawn in downtown Newark, Ohio this winter. The old was aging and in need of removal or replacement and I would like to commend those that donated much time and money to the project. Many businesses and individuals freely gave out of their own pockets. The reports I read stated $100,000! That's only slightly less than the median price of a home in Newark, Ohio.
What I find to be a big problem with this fountain is that $100,000 didn't do it. The project dipped into the federal coffers for another $20,000 for a beautification grant. The fountain was installed at the same time that the federal government was shutting down. They were claiming they were broke, but obviously the were not. All across American this little grant and that little grant goes to appease the locals for their political support.
I hope that extra $20,000 included a warranty for the fountain. Not long after cold hit, it cracked. Just like the system that partially funded it, it cracked. The town will probably be staring at this tarp until warm weather or until another federal fix-it-up grant comes their way.
It seems so many time that these federal grants come back to bite the city. Right now there are people being question for real estate transactions were used to purchase building that were never used, aren't being used now, and cannot be sold. So many of the grants turn out to be nothing but a waste. Democrats and Republicans fall for them. It's easy money. Fill out the forms, answer the questions in the right way, and money arrives to make it look like you as a politician actually did something positive during your tenure.
The Sunset Inn In Hebron, Ohio.
Just west of Hebron, Ohio on Route 40, The National Road, there is a great little family owned restaurant. I found this restaurant when I stopped with a friend returning home from a trip from Columbus. After being in Columbus, we thought it be nice to go somewhere a little less crowded than usual and thought that there may be a chance that there was real food here. We were right! Real food and real people. We had interrupted the beginning of their private Christmas party, but they welcomed us in to eat anyhow.
The first thing that they did was find out our names and where we were from. They were extremely friendly. The food was home-cooked and delicious. I'm not sure how I missed this place in the past. It is a little out of the way and in an unassuming building, but don't let it fool you. This place is well worth a stop.
I'm not one for the finer details of restaurants. I simply tell it like I see it and make sure that readers know that I am not a food critic. Gardenwife.com has a much more thorough article on The Sunset Inn. She enjoyed their frog leg dinner and provides some photos.
The Sunset Inn is a family owned operation and that makes me want to support them even more. In the hyper-competitive business of restaurants, they keep their prices very reasonable. Give them a try.
Butcher Family Maple Products. Local And Family Owned Business
Being the first somewhat warm day in March and anxious to find something to do and found a maple syrup tour where all the major maple product producers in Ohio were offering tours. I've been to Dawes Arboretum before and seen their old fashioned process. It's interesting, but I also noticed a family owned operation located between Mount Vernon and Granville called Butcher Family Maple Products. After a nice country ride, we were greeted by members of the Butcher family and given a full tour.
They were collecting syrup from every maple tree on their farm and from across the road. There is even a line running under the road to pump sap to the facility from area across the road. This photo shows the huge network of lines in the woods.
As you can see from the photo, this place is CLEAN! Before the sap reaches the evaporator there is a reverse osmosis process that removes much of the water. The remaining water is boiled off at this wood powered evaporator and goes into the white barrel. From the barrel, it goes through a filter for final output as maple syrup.
Real maple syrup products are not cheap, but I found Butcher's prices to be lower than many that I've seen in stores. You can buy direct from the Butchers by purchasing online or using the contact information on their website.
Mr. Butcher is a resident of Newark, Ohio, a part-time firefighter in Alexandria, and a retired Columbus, Ohio fireman. All of the family were happy to answer questions and explain the process. The best part though was that they gave free samples and they were awesome. Try the samples and you'll be hooked.

Get a website that wins more business and
- Rank higher in the search engines
- Convert more visitors to clients
- Boost your sales and win more business
Why do you need a new website?
There are a whole bunch of reasons why you might be considering a new website. Assuming you already have a site, the most common reasons we hear from our clients are:
"Our site is (out of date / tired / amateurish / slow / boring / broken)"
"Our site isn't getting the results we want (better ranking in Google / more enquiries / more traffic)"
"Our site doesn't bring enough enquiries"
"We want to be able to update our website ourselves"
"We need our site to incorporate (a blog, social media, video)"
"Our site isn't mobile friendly"
"Our branding has changed"
"Our site doesn't reflect what we do"
Start with a content management system
If you're considering a new website for any of these reasons, you will need a content management system (CMS).
A good content management system will have the tools, functionality and capabilities to help you get more visitors, convert more of those visitors into interested prospects and, ultimately into clients.
It will allow you to update your content whenever you wish, work on all mobile devices and incorporate almost any design or branding you wish to throw at it.
But how do you choose the right system?
Which CMS you choose for your website will depend on three things:
- Your budget
- The features you want in your new website
- How much you need your new CMS to scale as your business and your website grows
According to CMS Matrix, there are more than 1200 content management systems available. So how do you choose the right one?

As CBC Montreal reporter Emily Brass found out, Montrealers like to imbibe over the holidays — and that's why Nez Rouge exists.
If you've had a few too many, or are too tired to drive, Nez Rouge will drive you and your car home for free. It gives any and all donations to CEGEP Vieux-Montreal where the seasonal operation is based.
Nez Rouge operates from Nov. 29 right through to Jan. 1.

Elise Build
Jungle Role
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
[Elise] is one AWESOME damage dealer, if you know how to play with her.
She might look OP to people who see her in the shop, and she IS OP, but very hard. The combination of harassing from far, minion slaining and the close combat with her Spider Form / Human Form is very hard to control!
After you success to know and controll her, the sky are the limit!
Pros / Cons
* Once you controlled Elise, you can easily win the mid-lane.
* Elise have 4 damagin-skills! (great for brust damage!!)
* Elise have one AWESOME skill ( Cocoon / Rappel) that help you easily focus on the squishiest target on teamfights (usually AD carry, AP carry or Teemo), and ofcurse run away from ganks.
* There is no AP midder who can count Volatile Spiderling / Skittering Frenzy on her spider form if it done right.
* She have healing effect from her Volatile Spiderling / Skittering Frenzy on spider form.
* None of Elise's abilitis of her spider form cost mana.
* Elise is very, very, VERY hard to control.
* It realy hard to all of the sudden switch mode between the range-made champion and the close-combat champion.
* Her only CC skill ( Cocoon / Rappel) is very hard to land.
* Squishy AP carry.
Nothing realy to explain...
I recommend the most offensive rune build (9 - Greater Seal of Scaling Ability Power, 9 - Greater Glyph of Scaling Ability Power, 9 - Greater Mark of Magic Penetration, 3 - Greater Quintessence of Ability Power), but for that you need to be sure you can survive the early-game and to know you won't waste all you mana befor 5 min...
I you know you can't handle it or you just want to be more sure, you can use 9 - Greater Glyph of Warding for magic resist and/or 4 - Greater Seal of Replenishment & 5 - Greater Seal of Armor, for armor and mana reg.
Your choice fellows!
For the starter item I see only 2 optional choices:
Doran's Ring:
Doran's Ring is sure good for beginners. It bring nice start boost of AP, health and mana reg.
Usually, when you buy Doran's Ring, I recommend to buy couple. This way you gain extra damage and extra survivability for the begining.
Boots of Speed:
Boots of Speed is the more popular starter item with the higher levels. Also, in my opinion, Boots of Speed is a better started item from some reasons:
1. Speed at the begining of the game is very important, because the enemy champion can't kill you in 1 or 2 hits, and you have more opportunities to run and survive, OR to reach the enemy and give him some more hits befor he run behind the turret.
2. Buying Boots of Speed leave you with 135 Gold, which let you buy extra 3 Health Potion. those 3 Health Potion will be the best thing for survivability that you ever have in the first minutes of the game.
Early-Game Items:
For early-game, I recommend 3 build options:
1. 2 Doran's Ring and Boots of Speed - No metter what was your first item, you will always buy those three items, and after you will be able to upgrade your shoes and start to buy the mid-game items. This items combination are sure do safe for beginners, but they are slow you down in your way to get your main items. I use this build for many AP-midder champions (as Ahri for example), but not to Elise, because of her great mobility and survivability potentail, even befor level 6.
2. Boots of Speed & Blasting Wand - only if you started with the Boots of Speed! This early-game items are more offensivly and will advanced you to the Rod of Ages. Although you might consider with yourself if you want to risk yourself with NO survivability items at all! BUT, if you can hanlde with this condition, Blasting Wand is a better option.
catalyst the protector
3. Boots of Speed & catalyst the protector - only if you started with the Boots of Speed! This items combination, is the least offensivly one, BUT it is the one that will promise you a well survivability start AND will advence you as well to the Rod of Ages. It is recommended for you if you fight against AP-midder, and you can tell for sure he is eating you alive! If this is the situation, you should buy catalyst the protector right after the Boots of Speed (ofcurse beging with the Ruby Crystal). Although, and with all the respect, I don't recommend this build, because if you find your lane hard, it is more recommended to buy 2 Doran's Ring and get the boost of health and AP, and AFTER that buy catalyst the protector.
4. Boots of Speed & Needlessly Large Rod - ok, I know. "NEEDLESSLY?! DID HE GET NUTS?!" so, no! I didn't! If you can see that your lane is easy to handle, you don't afraid from your opponent, you farm as hell, don't get into sticky situations, harass for fun and then you can buy Needlessly Large Rod for second item, and get so close to your Rabadon's Deathcap. Personality, this is my favortie build. The only thing is that you all need to think with yourselves if you sure you can handle with NOT a single survivability item only untill you bought Rabadon's Deathcap & Sorcerer's Shoes.
mid-game items:
Here, we all level 6, and the gaming level is incresing.
Now, after we have 2-3 starter items, we can start to get our shoes and first complete item.
Sorcerer's Shoes. Done.
And now seriusly, the first thing you do after yoy buy your early-game items is to buy shoes.
First complete item (not include shoes):
For the first complete item we have only 2 options:
1. Rod of Ages. the most basic first complete item: give you syrvivability, as well as nice AP boost (80 AP after all of the stacks are complete - equal to Needlessly Large Rod AP bonus).
If you bought for early-game items Blasting Wand/ catalyst the protector, you next move will be Rod of Ages or you will die! (and not in the game... I will find you, and KILL YOU!... jk). More than that, if you will buy 2 Doran's Ring, you will might consider Rod of Ages if you see it is hard for you to keep survive at the mid.
2. Rabadon's Deathcap. The best choice you got is get Rabadon's Deathcap as soon as you can. If you started with Needlessly Large Rod you are in a good position. if you didn't, and you see you can handle your lane with not much survivability, you can buy Rabadon's Deathcap ever if you didn't complete Rod of Ages, and after that, you can back to complete your Rod of Ages.
It is important to tell that no metter what is your early-game items or first complete item is, you have to have Rabadon's Deathcap, Rod of Ages and Sorcerer's Shoes as 3 first items.
Late-Game Builds:
Now we left 3 empty places. Here are your options to fill them:
1. Lich Bane - Good for Elise because of her brust damgae and multi abilities.
2. Rylai's Crystal Scepter - give you NICE bonus of health and the AWESOME ability to slow enemies.
3. Will of the Ancients - Spellvamp. Speak for himself.
4. Void Staff - recommended only if you fight against a magic resist tank (e.g. Galio). If you dont, there are others items that better to Elise.
5. Zhonya's Hourglass - Gives you nice bonus of AP and armor, but not recomended, because Elise has it passive in her ability Cocoon / Rappel (on her spider form), so... you can have better item...
6. Abyssal Mask - A great item for Elise. Abyssal Mask acually works to each champion that is in sitiuation of close-combat with other champion, thanks to its passive. In that case, if you play good with both forms of Elise, this is a MUST item. If you don't, buy other one.
7. Archangel's Staff/ Athene's Unholy Grail - Um... not my choice... they are both can be good on Elise, but they don't have the potential that other items have on Elise. Try other items.
8. Guardian Angel/ Frozen Heart - If you need desspertly survivability, you should buy one of those, but if you are getting handle, buy AP items.
Passive - spider swarm:
Elise passive works on stacks: Every time Elise attacks an enemy unite, she get 1 Spider Queen stack, untill she gets to the max. When Elise change to her spider form, little Spiderlings are summoning. For every stack of Spider Queen summon 1 spiderling. The stacks are fixed, although, if one of your spiderling is dead, the number of the Spider Queen stacks will decrese for every spiderling who was killed, and it will incresed back when you will hit again enemy unit (and so on, and so on...).
I will begin with the Neurotoxin ( Elise's Q on human form).
This ability is a direct attack (you select the enemy and it automaticly hit the target) so you don't have much chances to miss it. This ability has base damage and it works about enemy's health%.
On Elise's spider form, Venomous Bite works the same with the damage it deals, only when you target an enemy unit, Elise jumps on it besides deals the damage.
This ability (Venomous Bite) sure don't let you miss the target, but you need to consider the use on it. If the target runs to behind her turret, or running to her team, you would prefare to check if you are in a good posission to turret dive (most of the times, YOU ARE NOT!), or get into the enemy team (Just don't... ever! unless your team is coming with you, and even when that happens, you should check more things, I will tell when we reach to gameplay). But beside this conditions, this ability is great if you chase enemy with low health, or if you run from one and reach to wild monion or enemy minion and escape.
On her human form, Volatile Spiderling / Skittering Frenzy release spiderling that chasing the closest enemy champion and explode on him. Although, notice that this spiderling will chase the enemy champion, BUT will explode on the first thing it will hit, so when you release it, try to make him go around the minions. Once you mastered aiming with this ability, you will become VERY strong, because of the high damage this ability deals.
On her spider form, Volatile Spiderling / Skittering Frenzy gives you and your spiderlings passive attack speed. When you active it, you get even more attack speed and every hit of you or your spiderlings heals you with tiny amount of health based on you AP. Once you mastered that ability, you may consider yourself the winner of your lane. no metter what champion is fighting you (well... most of the times...). There is no AP-midder who can count 3 AP-damage hits & this ability.
You should know that if you controll this ability (on both forms) you can give it the first point an max it first, but usually it is recommended to max first Neurotoxin / Venomous Bite.
On Elise human form, by using Cocoon / Rappel, you throw spider's webs that stun the first target it lands on for 1.5 seconds. You should now how to aim it right, but beside that, it is a great CC ability.
On Elise spider form, by using Cocoon / Rappel, you hanging on a spider web which probebly sticked to the sky (or some other invisable roof), and become untouchable for 2 seconds. While you are in the air, you can jump on any enemy unit in a big range, although it is important to remember, THIS ABILITY DON'T HAVE DAMAGE! One time I forgot that piece of information, got so exited for catching Rengar with 8 health left(!!!), and forgot to land a basic attack on him, and he ran away (well, after that I released Volatile Spiderling and killed him at the last moment, but you got my massage...).
Elise Ulti is Spider Form / Human Form. This skill has 2 rules:
1. To let Elise switch between her human and spider form.
2. On the first point (which, by the way, you get automaticlly by level 1) your max of Spider Queen stacks is 2, and by every point you give to Spider Form / Human Form, you increse the max of Spider Queen stacks by 1.
On Elise spider from, she gain bonus magic damage to basic attacks, movment speed, armor and magic resist, and when you switch back to your human form, your spiderlings are vanished untill you switch once again to the spider form.
For me, the mid game divided for 2 parts:
Part 1: The-Very-Early-Game
This part is on untill you reach level 4.
On this part, you should focus about one thing, and one thing at all: FARM! You don't attack, you don't push and you don't die. You farm, and stay alive.
If you passed this part well, you are in a good condition (which is good... because it's a GOOD condition... don't judge me...). Ofcurse there are exeptional situations, as gank of your team on the enemy midder, when you NEED to be offensive, and horribol ganks on you, which acually don't need to be on you, because you don't need to be in a situation that expose you to ganks at the first place, but if your team missed "ss" and you dead, so... good luck...
Part 2: The-Early-Game
At the moment you reached to level 4, and untill you reach level 6.
Now we had reached the fun part: HARASSMENT!
You got 2 points to your Neurotoxin / Venomous Bite or your Volatile Spiderling / Skittering Frenzy and you can harass.
If you are close to your enemy, Q him. If you don't, aim you W right and releas it.
When you see that you are in a good position, and your enemy is far enough from his turret, throw at him Cocoon, use you Human Form abilities, change to your Spider Form, attack with your Q and kill him with W and Ignite if it needed.
If you didn't got any chance to hit you combo, focus on farm. You will have to make it up by farming, which will be hard.
Now, on the early-game, there are signs which let you know if you or the Elise player in your team (or in the enemy team) is GOOD, AVERAGE or BAD:
1. GOOD Elise on this time will probebly get kill or to, will have very good farm and one of the early-game builds I have mentioned. If she is very talented, lucky or good, she will succeed to destroy her enemy mid turret, but its not likly or recommended.
2. AVERAGE Elise will maybe waste her mana too soon, BUT will be careful enough to stay alive, get nice farm and if she will be lucky, she will get kill or assist from gank.
3. NOOB Elise will probebly be killed more than 1 time, waste her mana befor leve 3, farm with skills and be ALL of her early-game on push mode and expoe to ganks. Oh, and probebly will have farm of 26, or somthing...
Also divided for 2 parts:
Part 1: The-Early-Mid-Game (TEMG):
From level 6, untill all of the teams go to the mid.
on this part, if you didn't got a kill so far, you have to get it now.
Ofcurse you need to focuse farm, and if you need to consider with yourself "kill of farm?" it 's always FARM! But if you think you are ready and control your lane good enough, go and get that kill!.
Keep harassing your opponent, but more often, and when he has 2/3 health or less AND he is not too close to his turret, start your combo, and get the kill!
Although, on this part ganks are getting more ofter as well and you should always be aware! Even if your team didn't "ss"ed, look at the map and see which champions are missing!
Part 2: The-Late-Mid-Game (TLMG):
After all of the champions go to the mid, and untill you get level 18.
Now we get serious. From now on it is begin to be very hard. Champions begin to go to the mid and the TeamFights begin.
NOTICE: TeamFights!
On TeamFights,
1. GOOD Elise should start with her human form! you throw stuns, "W"s and "Q"s to targets (not any targets! Think befor you act!), and when you find enemy champion with low health, transform to your Spider Form, jump on him with your E, bite him with your Q and if thats not enough, end with your W + Ignite and escape with Flash.
2. AVERAGE Elise will begin with her Spider Form and jump with her E on easy/squishy target, kill it and escape with much much luck or die sadly...
3. NOOB Elise will begin with her spider form, jump with her E on a squishy target which is behind all of the tanks, and get killed befor she can even say "Which witch watch which watch!"... sad...
NOTICE: Escapes!
Lets put our Elise in a sticky situation: You are in your lane, you lost your turret (sadly), you in the nutral area (the middle of the mid) and you've got the enemy's midder together with other champion chasing you, as you can see at the photo:
(lets, just for the record, that you are on the blue team - your base is in the bottom...)
What do you do?
1. GOOD Elise will change to your Spider Form, run into your jungle, use E, land fast on Ancient Golem , change back to human form, and use your W to the bush under the ancient golem to check how close does the enemy champions are, while running to the inner top lane turret and escape.
2. AVERAGE Elise will run to your base, while throw a stun to the enemy champions direction and change to her Spider Form, because of her speed bonuse and her spiderlings which can block attack like Ezreal's Mystic Shot or Rammus while he rolling right to you. This stragegy is not very good, because the enemy champions would be able easily to reach to you and kill you.
3. NOOB Elise will change to her Spider Form, use E, and get killed at the moment she returns to the ground.
There is somthing very important about Elise's Spider-Form-E while trying to escape. It is not always will save you! You need to use it only with thinking! use it to land on far minion that will get you far from the enemy champions or to netural monsters behind a well, but usually, just go up in the air won't save you!
Late Game:
After reaching level 18, untill the end of the game.
Try to live, be smart, use the tips I gave, buy items that will help you take the maximum potential of Elise on every game and good luck!
To sum all of this up:
Elise: or you are an OP champ, or it will be very hard for you to get positive score...
