The therapist-patient privilege does not apply to threats made by a patient directly to his or her therapist when the patient had reason to believe the therapist would report the threats, the Fifth Circuit has ruled. In reversing a trial court order to suppress evidence of the threats, the court acknowledged a split on this issue in federal courts and cited contrary rulings from the Sixth and Ninth circuits. (United States v. Auster, 517 F.3d 312 (5th Cir. 2008).)
John Auster, a retired New Orleans police officer, began undergoing psychotherapy for paranoia and depression in 1989. His doctors were Fred Davis and Harold Ginzburg. The therapy was paid for by workers' compensation and managed by CCMSI, a third-party administrator based in Danville, Illinois.
During several therapy sessions, Auster threatened to harm different people who had angered him, and frequent targets of those threats were the employees and managers of CCMSI. Auster often told his doctors that he was unhappy with the way the company managed his workers' comp payments. His doctors had reported these threats to Auster's targets and told him they would continue to do so.
In September 2006, CCMSI told Auster that his benefits would be reduced in October. Auster discussed this information with Davis and stated that he intended to physically harm certain CCMSI employees, city-government workers, and police officers. He even gave a specific date—October 2—as the one on which he planned to take action.
Because therapists in Louisiana have a legal duty to warn about threats to others made by patients, Auster's doctors notified the CCMSI employees by letter. CCMSI contacted the police, who arrested Auster. He was charged with extortion.
At trial, the court denied Auster's motion to dismiss the charge, but it ruled that the statements he had made to his therapists were inadmissible under the therapist-patient privilege. The government appealed.
In reversing the trial court, the Fifth Circuit cited the 1996 U.S. Supreme Court decision Jaffee v. Redmond, which held that the psychotherapist-patient privilege applies to all confidential statements made in therapy. (518 U.S. 1 (1996).) Circuit Judge Jerry Edwin Smith, writing for the court, said the Supreme Court's unambiguous definition of "confidential communications" ran counter to Auster's experience because he knew that his therapists had reported his earlier threats and would tell CCMSI about his plans to exact revenge.
"Jaffee's explicit confidentiality," Smith wrote, "is fatal to Auster's claim of privilege . . . because he had no reasonable basis to conclude the statement was confidential. As a matter of law, where the confidentiality requirement has not been satisfied, the psychotherapist-patient privilege—as with other privileges—does not apply."
The Sixth and Ninth circuits have held that statements made in therapy, even without a reasonable expectation of privacy, should be considered confidential and that the harm of permitting such evidence in trial outweighs the benefits.
The Sixth Circuit, however, also has ruled that there is a "dangerous patient" exception to Jaffee, meaning that a therapist may testify about a patient's confidential statements if the therapist has warned the patient's intended victim. (United States v. Hayes, 227 F.3d 578 (6th Cir. 2000).)
But the Ninth Circuit, in an en banc ruling, held that there is no such exception and that a patient's statements must be protected from disclosure, even if the therapist issued a warning to the patient's target. (United States v. Chase, 340 F.3d 978 (9th Cir. 2003).)
The Fifth Circuit called the reasoning of the other appeals courts unpersuasive and said Jaffee should be the controlling authority.
Jim Letten, U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Louisiana, said the decision "does not intrude on the sanctity of the patient-therapist privilege. The privilege yielded to the fact that the patient intended this information to go beyond the therapy room. This ruling was very fact-specific, and the Fifth Circuit did not even reach the more sensitive issues of privacy."
Letten noted that Auster knew his threats would be conveyed outside of the therapy office because his therapists had warned others about his previous threats and told him they would do so again. And the way he made the threats, Letten said, "made it clear that this information was not intended to be closely held. In the end, we were able to address a compelling public safety issue while the patient-therapist privilege remains intact."

The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade would be over soon, and the thousands of storm-scattered New Yorkers whom the city had invited to watch the floats go by in Columbus Circle were thinking about leaving. The subways would be crowded; and more work sorting through debris and filling out insurance claims awaited. Best not to linger until the last elf was out of sight.
Then a cheer of surprise and delight went up from the Rockaway residents crowded in the stands, and anyone else who recognized the fur-, feather- and flower-draped figure pushing a cart behind Santa's entourage, looking for all the world like just another colorful parade character.
It was the "Rockaway Beach Guy," as some residents of the hard-hit seaside community in Queens know the man with the neon green beard who regularly saunters across the Boardwalk there. And soon the residents were debating whether he was among those who received a free ticket and busing to the event, or whether he had simply eluded the police barriers and joined the show. Regardless, the trademark parrot that rides atop his bald head — a practical community mascot — was a welcome sight.
There was not much else in Columbus Circle to remind them of home.
For one thing, there was no sand on the streets. That was one of the first things Raphael Lilker, 30, noticed when he stepped out of their cab with his wife, their son and daughter, and several other residents of Belle Harbor who had lost most of their possessions to the flood. For another, hot food was available everywhere. So were working toilets.
"It's almost like a minivacation to be here," said Mr. Lilker, surveying the crowd of tourists and New Yorkers who had wedged themselves into every possible cranny for a view of Spider-Man, Charlie Brown, Kermit the Frog and all the rest.Continue reading the main story
"I wouldn't say it was worth a hurricane to get it, but it's nice for the city to treat us," he added, "when we have nothing."
Like many families displaced by the storm, the Lilkers can count their lives among the things they preserved from Hurricane Sandy, but little else. The two-story house they share with Danielle Lilker's younger brother, Ross Radusky, 25, was badly damaged by the storm. The porch is buckled and hangs askew. The basement apartment is a maze of trash. The furniture is a pile of debris in Jacob Riis Park. The five family cars are all wrecked.
In their temporary home — Mr. Lilker's parents' house in Nassau County — are garbage bags of the belongings they managed to salvage: family photos but no pots, pans or dishes; a few items of clothing, but not enough to clothe everyone for more than a few days at a time.
They have been feeling restless, wanting to go home, longing to get back to normal.
Of course, "normal" is hardly what they would call getting front-row seats at the Macy's parade. No, going to the parade has always been a dream, ever since Ms. Lilker and Mr. Radusky were children in Belle Harbor waking up on Thanksgiving morning to turn on the television, open a box of cookies and marvel at the balloons.
This year, Jack Lilker, 3, and his 18-month-old sister, Jaden, saw them in person, lofted on their uncle's shoulders. (Jack's eyes grew big at Mickey Mouse; Jaden perked up at Hello Kitty. Their parents delighted at the unexpected appearance of the "beach guy.")
As the parade ended, the family prepared to return to their damaged home. Mr. Radusky usually takes care of the turkey; Ms. Lilker helps make the sides. Electricity had been restored, so they would be able to power a refrigerator, electric stove and oven for cooking, and space heaters for eating. So they decided to try Thanksgiving at home.
"We are so fortunate for those little things — lights on Thanksgiving," Mr. Radusky said.
"We were trying to bring our life back together," Mr. Lilker added. And in normal life, he said, "You eat in your own house."Continue reading the main story

Lots of people have heard of Japan's pedigree dogs like the Akita and Shiba because they're popular up there in the mainland. Okinawa has it's own pedigree dog, too. It's the Ryukyu Inu.
Here are some photos of what the Okinawan's call Turra-in. That's because they have black stripes like a tiger. The breed was nearly wiped out during World War II and there was a lot of cross-breeding going on when foreigners brought German Shepherds, French Poodles and all kinds of non-native dogs over here. Mostly because dogs don't need marriage licenses, I guess.
But, back in the 1980's somebody discovered a pack of these dogs up in the mountains we call Yanbaru. Scientists grabbed a bunch of them and checked them out. These critters were the real deal. They didn't have any mixed blood in them and were different in genetic makeup from any other breed. So, they became a Protected Species. There were only about 800 of them back in the 1980's but, there might be 1,000 or more on the islands these days.
There are a few other colors in the Ryukyu Inu breed. Some don't have the tiger stripes and are red so, they call them Aka-in ( Red dog) in Okinawan dialect.
I just don't take their pictures.
When I shoot a dog and post a photo online, I want to know what it is first.
Like this guy here. He's got the head of a Ryukyu Inu and I even talked to his master before I shot the photo. I know a Turra-in when I see one, for sure.
This is the first time I saw one with white patches of fur. Think maybe a Poodle got in there?

Topic Overview:
The popular sovereignty of the US had been repeatedly overlooked by the British around the world, especially in the western US. As America looked westward to fulfill its "manifest destiny," the British sought to regain what it had lost in the Revolution. This led to a war between the two in 1812. It was fought in many places around North America and at sea all over the world. Ending in a stalemate, the war brought about an increase in nationalism in the US and Britain and the emergence of Canada as a nation. Also, it marked the end of Native Americans being able to strategically use conflict between the US and Britain as a pawn in defending their native lands.
Activity Overview:
In this simulation game students will reenact the War of 1812 with toy soldiers. They will be asked to make decisions about how to avoid war with Great Britain and then eventually how to win the war. Correct decisions earn rewards of money and soldiers while wrong decisions will cost them.

The sub market segment construction timber is split up into straight laminated beams, curved laminated beams, I-beams and wall beams
Construction Timber:
The sub market segment Construction Timber is dominated by polycondensate adhesives, traditionally used for the construction industry.
Besides conventional MUF adhesives, we lead a strong trend of developing adhesives which are not classified as hazardous. These adhesives do not contain raw materials of concern which, within the current knowledge of the supplier and in the concentrations applicable, are classified as hazardous to health or the environment and hence require reporting according to EU Regulation for Classification, Labeling and Packaging (EC 1272/2008) and its amendments.
These adhesive systems are clear trendsetter and the solution for the near future.

The Anzac Eve Peace Vigil renews an ancient custom of keeping watch in the night, calling the spirit of a community to a sacred purpose.
At 5.30pm, as dusk falls on 24 April we meet on top of Mt Ainslie. Handmade lanterns are shared about .
With lanterns alight we gather round a fire, singing together.
We look over our city, acknowledging the beauty of our country and the wisdom of its custodians through the millennia before us.
Elders welcome us.
We hear laments and love songs.
We remember the terrible cost of war and how much we cherish peace.
And together, we listen into the hope in the 'Spirit Songs' that A Chorus of Women sing every year ...
People, hear the law
The Vigil continues through the night ---
Listen here. A Chorus of Women sing Lest We Forget.
Walking into darkness
We begin a lantern-lit procession down the mountain track.
Walkers are greeted with community singing at the end of the walk in Remembrance Park before a procession across the road into the War Memorial grounds.
Voices of Lament, Voices of Yearning
Within a circle of lantern light, we gather round the peace fire to lament the sorrows of war and express our yearnings for peace with personal storytelling, poetry and song.
Around 8.15 the lantern lit procession continues down Anzac Parade towards the West Block building.
Night Watch
Around 8.15pm the lantern lit procession continues down Anzac Parade towards the Lake to a campfire outside West Block for stories, poetry, singing and conversation all through night. Warming soup will be offered, and also after the Anzac Dawn Service next morning. Remember to BYO mug, rug and chair.

Found this paragraph written but never posted from two years back and I think it relates to this story
(I had promised to keep this to myself cause complaining seems pointless (but this really isnt a complaint), plus as a Bajan at home pointed out to me we 'foreigners' doan know how things duz work in Barbados and duz come wid we foreign thoughts and new-fangled ideas and wanta get vex bout things in Bim when we not actually contributing to Bajan society or in other words 'grin and bear um' or 'shut up and put up'.)
Anyway with that off my chest...........
looka dese wufliss Bajan people doah!
Comin back to dat in a bit.
As a immigrant, living ova in away, wunna know how hard um is to do business wid anyone back in Barbados? Lawd avest mercy!! Dem people down deyso got a knack of mekkin every iota difficult ya hear! An den dey duz complain dat overseas Bajans wun invest and give back to de country.
Ah know wunna gine tell me I been in Canada too long and I get Canadian-ish an faget how we duz do things home and I shud keep quiet (see first paragraph). Well I do know and I don't expect tings home to be like up hayso but cuhdear sometimes wunna duz mek simple tings too too hard ya.
Exhibit A: Consider something seemingly as simple as opening a bank account.
In Toronto, I can walk into a bank wid my lil deposit, my i.d and social insurance number and maybe they may ask for a letter from muh workplace if dey malicious, an in two twos I got three accounts, overdraft protection. a bank card, a line a credit, 6 credit cards, 2 mortgage offers, a toaster, two iPads and the bank manager home number. Thanks Bob, pleasure doing business!
In Bim, well...............
So in 2015, I needed to get a bank account in Barbados. So after gathering what I thought would be sufficient documents to get the deed done I stroll into a bank branch only to be told by de teller "ammm big man you need such and such a form signed in triplicate, such an such extra i.d, a blood test, character witnesses and three people that was present at ya christening."
Not only that but the teller did look like she did ready to jump ova de counter an gi muh two belly searchers cause I ask a lil question about why one particular document was necessary if ya had Bajan i.d already. lawd avest mercy de look an de tone she adapt afta mi question man I did frighten she did gine hurt muh fa true.
Anyways I is a big man so I will tek de full blame fa dat. My bad! I had opened an account before and just assumed the process hadn't changed but I shoulda ask somebody what the process was beforehand and not assume an presume that I would have all the documentation. Fine that one on me but in all fairness ah did grieving muh mudda death so muh head din on de right way.
Alright! So then I had to wait til I come back down this year to get the thing sort out. Now, I smarten up so a few months prior to the trip I asked someone in Bim about the required documentation and then proceeded to get a letter from work, the right i.d, a letter from my bank in Canada saying Jdid aint nuh crook as far as we know an he doan owe we nuh money plus signed a whole buncha odda documents and I did set.
Or so I thought...........................
And so I come down now and confidently I stride into de people bank to get sorted out. First branch I gone into. Nuhbody aint at the front an people waiting in line an chupsing an ting an I stan up dey fa 20 minutes or more widout anyone being able to answer my questions and I aint see nuttin happening an so ah leff. Plenty banks on the island wid numerous branches right?
Alright! Still confident I went now to anudda bank, this wun up Six Roads in St Farup cause ah was up that side (this is important to the story people so pay attention). Walk confidently into the bank pelt down the bag a documents I walk wid and wid a commanding voice declare 'skippa! I here to open a bank account wid dese one one coppers an in case I got to do business down hayso anytime. So looka here is all the paperwork in triplicate, de Canadian bank letter to say I not a crook, a job letter saying I duz wuk, a blood sample to prove iza not a Trini, an see dis fella dat wid me well he is de priest dat christen muh. so bram sort me out buddy!"
And I did feeling special ya! Like a boss!! All my paperwork good, de letters dem ask for dey, nuttin can stop me now! Muh chest puff out an muh head big like wha!
An then the bank person looked at me calmly an said 'oh but ya need an appointment to set up a new account ya, come back in on Thursday afternoon at 1:30pm . Oh and we change the forms last week so fill out these 6 more in triplicate and bring long DNA results and two pictures from when ya was in short pants in primary school" ...........or so it seemed.
And so deflated I tek my big bag a documents, an de resta new forms an went long back home til the Thursday.
And when the Thursday come now and I fill out the resta forms in triplicate and ready now I get in the bank and tell dem alright I come back an I good to go, is 1:30 an I got an appointment wid Mr So n So. And all duh tell me is guh deyso an wait.....
And then ah had to wait anudda half hour.
But don't worry. Good news cause it was smooth sailing after that and I had my account done quickly and professionally by Mr So n So and even though it took 2 trips to Bim and 4 visits to the bank to get sorted I was sorta happy.
All's well that ends well! I had my account and at a branch convenient to me and I did set!
Yea I did set and good til this morning when I find out duh close the Six Roads branch so now duh gine move my account downtown.
So after all muh hard work to get a bank account close and convenient to muh when ah home dem up an gine move muh account to Bridgetown
"But looka dese wufliss bajan people doah! "......................................
But ah cant complain at least dem aint close de account an mek muh start over from scratch

The birds were out in force again - seems to be a regular habit of theirs. They certainly do make a lot of noise - but not in a bad way. ( I am sure the neighbour living in the property across the caravan park feeds them a daily dose of bread or something). With all this squawking, how a bear is s'posed to get his beauty sleep is a mystery yet to be solved!? I won't repeat what Mamabear said about my beauty and the idea of sleep improving it.
We have more or less settled into a routine and by the time we finished the routine it was time to pay our bills and depart from the noisy but very lovely and relaxing camp-site. Found another helpful sign in the parking lot - this one a bit more in the comedy line, yet still very helpful! Along the way we also saw a creepy miniature-dragon-look-alike-crawl-on-your-belly thing and more of our feathered noisy friends.
These old bears need their creature comfort but would not pay the (steep) hire charges for 2 deck chairs so we bought them on the cheap from the local' Bunnings store - after getting directions from the Campsite owner and the Navigator decided that left is left indeed!!! Noted -we did not get lost!
We then felt VERY brave and hunted – oops drove across town to the "Lone-pine Koala Sanctuary"! We walked 'round and saw lots of wildlife.
Here Mamabear can bee seen having a wee chat with the local parrot who repeated most things. Polly and cracker were the most often used words.
Eventually we found the holding cells for my cousins thrice removed from our Western Island. Actually they are not cousins at all - but (psssst) we let them have this illusion!
The sanctuary is just that - a sanctuary for Koala's who suffered a misfortune in the wild and need a helping hand in order to survive - so they get to see out their "re-tirement" in relative cared comfort.
We also found out that their diet consists almost exclusively from the leaves of the eucalyptus trees and being that, they get very little nourishment and to much fibre - which of course effects energy levels - thus (it would seem to be a VERY good excuse) they sit in trees mostly and - snooze - too tiered and lethargic to move! hmmm some life!!
This little fella decided a drink is a good idea. You have to keep hydrated after all.
Eventually we got to the Bird of Prey show! Ah yes - no - not THAT bird of prey (sorry Trekkies) but the feathered variety and we saw some of the regular larger birds of prey from Australia. This eagle is the second largest native bird in Australia. Pity that our own Haast eagle is now extinct - it would tower over this one!!
Despite the 'touristy' nature and the real good looking logos used on their uniform - sadly no cloth badges (sighs). Time to re-hydrate ourselves and we went back to the van and boil some water (for this very English tradition of a cuppa tea!) - eventually - right after we discovered that the plugs only work when you have the camper-van plugged into mains supply!! Still thats what the gas is for - so the kettle was soon singing.
We were still in the heart and heat of Brisbane at this point and the hunt for sharks looked less likely as time went on. I have to say - as we flew in (to Brisbane Airport) you could clearly see below the water line, in and around the airport (which is right out on the beach) and sadly no great white lurked around there. Maybe they have heard tales of this fearless shark-hunting bear and that he is visiting their shores, so went to ground - oops hiding in some deeper waters??
Not to be outdone we felt brave and consulted Mr Google and found a long and windy route through Brisbane to get to Tweeds head (rumoured to have a resident killer fish in some waters nearby).
When arriving there - we found instead 'Dorothy' - who missed her Lion and Tin Man and hmmm the strawpersonthingie. Time to have dinner and a general catchup and make some sort of plans for the next day!! Dinner was yummy,
bed was even yummier - no banging of feet against the bulkhead on the campervan. I dreamt of big fish with big fins . . . . . .
to be continued . .
Have fun

the weather has been awful and the Masséna still awaits for its sea. So could it be I am scattering myself a bit? The big masséna lacking its figure and sea: 3 weeks worth of evenings job. I am currently working on a dio provisionnaly entitled "the End of captalism", and this very one whose SBS I start here and on facebook is already completed but lacks its base and -well perhaps a little bit of soul that i will try to figure out those next weeks before airing completed pictures.
So this will probably be the last SBS I am doing here before at least 6 months. This diorama will be small and a sort of attempt to tackle the decayed post Soviet Russia -think Prypiat and the like. I have 33 pictures to show, maybe more as it is not entirely finished. There will be quite a few techniques displayed, I hope you will like!
the rules of the game are the same as for the previous one: the SBS will run for at least 2 weeks with a minium of 5 posts a week, everytime with 1 , 2 or 3 murky pictures because I can't do anything better (yet this will chnage for further ones as I think i took the right path recently).
Anyway, here we start by once again modifying an unsound DML plastic soldier, rearanging arms, stripping the fig before adding some new clothes out of Magic Sculp and Duro

- date
- 08-03-2018
The Urban Agenda partnership on climate adaptation has identified bottlenecks for urban adaptation to climate change and is inviting all cities to assess the relevance of those bottlenecks.
The Urban Agenda for the EU was set up following the 'Pact of Amsterdam', and introduces 12 thematic partnerships addressing various challenges from a multi-level (local, regional, member state and EU) perspective. The Partnership on Climate Adaptation is one of the 12 thematic partnerships in the Urban Agenda for the EU. This particular partnership seeks to identify challenges related to climate adaptation in the urban environment. In order to identify the actions needed in this topic, the Partnership has identified various bottlenecks in the field of climate adaptation that require attention. Through this questionnaire we would like to see how relevant these bottlenecks are according to other cities in Europe. Also, we are interested in your feedback regarding the bottlenecks.
The questionnaire is designed to take not more than 5 minutes of your time. We highly appreciate your contribution made by filling in the questionnaire now or no later than the end of March.

Lucy Beale may have been murdered over a year ago in 'EastEnders', but the huge storyline still isn't over, as Jane and Ian find out later this month when police arrive in the Square.
After months of police investigations, Ian found out that his youngest son Bobby murdered Lucy back in February, and the family resolved to keep the killing a secret.
However, the police have been powering on with their investigation, and now they're ready to make an arrest - is it possible that the truth is out?
Cindy Williams has been threatening to reveal the truth to Walford, but is she really capable of going behind Ian's back and telling the police?
The Lucy Beale case has been full of twists and turns, so we're not quite ready to hedge bets on who will be walking away in handcuffs.
Elsewhere in the Sqaure, there's been plenty of drama, and Stacey Slater is currently at the centre of a super-awkward love square (Is that a thing? Well, we're making it a thing) and it's set to get even worse...
Watch 'EastEnders' from Monday 13 July to see the latest developments unfold.

this article with a personal story about being diagnosed with OCD. He says he realized this:
"I saw beyond the myth that The Victim Is Unaware of His or Her Own Condition. A childhood flooded with media depictions of the mentally ill had lead me to believe that the afflicted had somehow been robbed of their objectivity, thrown into a dark hall-of-mirrors beyond the realm of rational perspective.
Nonsense. My rational mind remained intact, albeit uncomfortably so. From the lighter corner of my mind, I watched darkness flow in..."
Powerful writing! And also something I have felt. Now, I haven't always been self aware of my own mental state. But now, looking back and realizing how anixious I was so much of the time can be painful.
But you know? At least I can watch the "darkness flow in" now. I know when I start getting obessive, or over-anxious. There is a specific feeling when I can't put down a work task, or step away from the mirrow, or stop fussing with something.
That means, as I watch that darkness flow all around my mind, and I can try get out of the way! Or even put up a dam to stop it.

Of all the metrics you can choose from to measure your team experience, why should it be happiness?
Think about a question like "How engaged are you?": it's difficult to answer genuinely. But "How happy are you?" feels natural and gives you a clear good-bad signal.
Happiness is at the core of all positive emotions. These three are particularly useful at work:
Enthusiasm – fabulous for creativity.
Enthusiasm is an active energy that helps people create and seize opportunities. It enables the cognitive leap essential for innovation.
Interest – brilliant for productivity
Interest fuels focus and staying power. This energy keeps us committed through the short-term tasks that are mundane or challenging.
Affection – essential for retention
Affection is a social emotion that helps us build relationships. People rarely leave teams when they really like one another.
Measure in real time what makes employees at work happy and identify areas of improvement.
Increasing average happiness in a team by half a point on our 5 point scale is associated with an increase in productivity of over 7%.
Happiness applies to retention and creativity as well. The 20% least happy employees are twice as likely to leave their job than the happiest employees. Happy employees are more creative and better at processing complex information.
Sounds obvious, right? In a 2013 survey of workplace conditions, Gallup found that out of 1 million employees, the highest scoring teams are 21% more productive than the lowest teams. This checks out with our own client data—we found that the happiest teams were 28% more productive than the least happy teams.
If you are going to prioritise a team performance indicator, make it happiness.
What 23,000 employees in 8 countries can teach you about workplace happiness.
In 2008, our team was commissioned by the UK government to look at mental health and well-being. The goal? To provide evidence-based actions to improve personal well-being. In 2016, we used that research as inspiration to find the key positive actions that contribute to building happy teams. Hover over each of the five icons to learn more.
It is much easier to do great work when we are happy in the company of others. Teams who encourage, support and appreciate each other make problem solving, innovation and success possible.
Being treated with fairness and respect is fundamental to happier work. People flourish when organizations are responsive to their needs and value the energy they put in. When people feel cared for, it frees them up to focus on their jobs.
Sharing responsibility and playing to people's strengths can unleash an amazing potential in organizations. When people are able to be themselves and use their judgement, they do great work.
Contrary to myth, people feel happiest when they are absorbed and progressing their work. By making jobs interesting organizations pull people into a space where they learn and achieve great things.
Doing a job that we feel is genuinely worthwhile is a great source of motivation in our lives and it can sustain us through challenging times. Seeing beyond narrow business goals to how we help other people makes work more meaningful.
That research we just mentioned? It went into this report that we wrote with recruitment company Robert Half International. The research was referenced worldwide with Forbes saying it "reveals the drivers behind employee happiness and how businesses can nurture a positive work culture." We're quite proud of it. We hope you like it.Download it here
"Nic's work has been at the forefront of measuring happiness and showing how improving it leads to a more profitable business."
Most companies out there talk about employee engagement. We don't! The research shows that it doesn't actually work: about 80% of managers don't act on the data and most employees feel it makes no difference. In fact most people think of employee engagement as "getting more work out of me for the same money."Read more here
Try Friday for six weeks. Learn first-hand why teams are ditching employee engagement surveys in favor of pulse checks—an enjoyable part of the week that everyone learns from.

Bad infrastructural development in all Caribbean states is costing this region millions of dollars in damages every year.
Responding to questions from the media last week Thursday at the Hilton Barbados, Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency (CDEMA) Executive Director, Ronald Jackson, noted that a lack of building codes and proper land use planning were resulting in heavy losses during disasters, like hurricanes and earthquakes.
|Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency
(CDEMA) Executive Director Ronald Jackson.
"We do not practice land use planning and exercise development control and enforce policies to proper development, then we are going to continue to see the kind of devastation that we have seen in our countries. So building codes – we have to establish them and we have to enforce these codes, so that the structures that are going up are resilient against the hazards against the day-to-day, year-to-year things we will face," he stressed.
Pointing out that the region was very hazard prone, Jackson stated that in order to ensure that it did not slip in terms of economic targets, these issues related to development have to be addressed.
"There is bad development, and bad development is what is leading to the year by year losses we have been seeing. We will not be able to prevent everything, but we can certainly reduce the level of impact. We can get back to our growth projections much quicker than we have in the past," he stated.
In addition, he noted that this was a general situation across the island states.
"It is a situation within Caribbean development planning that needs to be addressed generally. We depend on coastal resources, but it doesn't mean that we have to be right on top of the coast. We are destroying our coral reefs, which are natural buffers from which we gain our livelihoods, whether it be from tourism, fishing; and which also protects us from these hazardous situations," Jackson said.

(Betty Jo McNeece Receiving Home to get a new cooling system)…In June the old Chiller System servicing the Home gave out.
With souring temperatures, County Public Works set up a temporary Chiller System. They told the County Board of Supervisors Tuesday they did not expect the system to last very long. The Supervisors declared an Imminent State of Emergency, allowing for the repair work to be completed under a minimal bid process. They did not say how many children were currently being housed at the receiving home, but they did say there was a crew of full time county employees at the facility.

Ease the worries of relationship breakdown with a fixed fee divorce
Getting a divorce is arguably the most stressful life experience most of us will ever have to endure. If children, property or other joint possessions are involved, the entire process becomes measurably more costly on both the emotions and the pocket. Woolley and Co. Solicitors, the family law and divorce law specialists have pioneered a new approach to dealing with divorce, designed to take away some of the stress and uncertainty associated with the dissolution of a marriage. Their 'fixed fee divorce' option provides all of the support and legal assistance needed to formally end a relationship, with no hidden extras or additional charges.
Fixed fee rates empowers the individual to regain control of their personal finances and make it easy to budget for the cost of divorce. Andrew Woolley, Senior Partner, at Woolley & Co. Solicitors said, "A fixed fee divorce covers all of the costs associated with retaining a divorce lawyer and obtaining an uncontested divorce. With financial worries often straining even the strongest of relationships, a straightforward approach to a legal separation provides a welcome respite during a sensitive time. The guaranteed, single fee includes all of the necessary divorce paperwork, legal advice from an experienced divorce lawyer and information communicated in plain English."
Regardless of the grounds for divorce, if the separation is uncontested, the fixed fee charge secures legal representation for £1190.00. This amount includes VAT, all charges and compulsory court fees. Bookable online, the divorce lawyer from Woolley & Co. Solicitors will then collect all the relevant details, correspond with the other parties involved (the spouse and their solicitor, if appropriate) and prepare and file all the relevant papers with the Court to obtain a divorce.

What is an ABR?
Auditory Brainstem Recordings, or ABRs, are used to test the hearing of animals, including humans. They record the electrical signal produced by the hearing nerve and auditory centers of the brain to test how well an animal can sense different sounds.
Collaborator - Dr. Jakob Christensen-Dalsgaard
The software and methodology displayed here were developed in the lab of Dr. Jakob Christensen-Dalsgaard at Southern Denmark University.
This is an ABR set up in the field (a hostal room in Lima, Peru).
This is a frog undergoing an ABR.
Manipulations can be performed to test whether the hearing of an organism is affected. In this case - seeing how much hearing changes when the tympanum of a toad is covered with vaseline.
Here are some real ABR results from testing the hearing of eared and earless toads!

My husband and I have been together 3 years, married for 2! We have a beautiful 9-month old daughter together! When I was around 5 months pregnant, I went through his phone and found him talking to girls but he said that they were just friends he worked with.
Since then, I have caught him on porn sites, dating sites, F*ckbook, live porn shows, and this & that. I have seen "[Cams dot com]"on our bank records and I asked him about it. He said he bought me a camera. I didn't believe it so I checked it out and came to find out it was live porn chat he was paying for! Meanwhile I'm his pregnant wife!
One night I took him out with friends and wanted to go home to have "us time," but he said he didn't feel like it. So I laid in bed for about an hour acting like I was asleep. Then I hear him sneaking off the bed. I give him a minute and roll over and ask him what he's doing. He said throwing a tissue away as he is throwing his phone on the bed. I grab it and see it was porn on his phone. So I reach down and he is exposed and erect so I was like "yeah, you're really throwing something away." We fought, he took his phone and slammed it on the ground and shattered it then had me (5 months pregnant) shoved up on the wall yelling at me because I caught him.
I couldn't trust him and I still can't trust him because I've caught him on it multiple times after. Three days after I had our daughter, he was on two of his ex girlfriends' Facebook pages! I was beyond hurt! He thinks I overreact but I don't because it hurts me! I couldn't trust him around our daughter because his addiction as calls it, was so bad! He is checking girls out all the time now. Deleting his history and text messages. Hides his phone whenever someone calls and when I ask who it is, he says "don't worry about it, you're too nosy!"
He has been really distant lately, coming home from work and getting directly in the shower. He says he is too tired to have sex when I want to or he just flat out says "no!" and that hurts my feelings and is embarrassing!
Do you think he is cheating on me? We fight every day and are never happy anymore.
-Confused & Hurt
Dear Confused & Hurt,
First and foremost, any man that lays a hand on a pregnant woman is no respectable man. Secondly, a cheater will ALWAYS deny, deny, deny! Getting defensive is a good indication you are not being told the truth. I can definitely understand your trust issues, especially when you have indicated to him that what he is doing is inappropriate and he is still continuing his illicit activities.
Now as to your question of whether or not he is cheating is dependent on what you define as cheating in your marriage. You have already stated that he has been on dating websites (which by the way, why would you need to be on a dating site if you are married? Dating sites are for single people for anyone wondering.) and even a "hook-up" dating site where people go to find others to have sex with! It's difficult for me to state that he has physically committed adultery if there is no proof of him doing it, for example, you have video evidence of your husband hooking up with another woman. However, if you consider being on these types of sites as adultery, then yes, he has committed adultery in your marriage!
Like you'll see on our show, cheaters will be presented with video evidence of their cheating ways and still try to deny the facts. My advice to you is to gather your evidence and see for yourself what your husband is doing when you aren't around but make sure to gather your evidence first before you approach him because it sounds like he will most certainly get angry and irrational. Get your plan together as to what you will do if you do find proof of his infidelity before you approach him and try to stay as calm as possible when approaching him with any evidence found. You have a right to know what's going on in your marriage!

A few weeks ago, I purchased a new waffle maker to take back to school (and for future apartments), mostly thanks to Christmas sales and gift cards. A few days ago, delayed-onset post-workout hunger resulted in the inauguration of the waffle maker via sweet potatoes 🙂
The workout was 3 mile warm-up, 3 x [9 minute progression (pick up the pace every 3 minutes), 5 minutes "off"], 2 mile cool down. I was lucky enough to be able to work out with two teammates!
After the coldest week of winter, the weather decided to be beautiful! It was 40 degrees and partly cloudy. We went to the canal, warmed up for 3 miles (verryyy fast) and did drills. The first 9-minute segment started a little faster than I wanted to, and I'm not sure if I actually progressed or just maintained! Oops. Overall, I was feeling pretty stiff and mentally not in it.
I struggled throughout the second segment because I wasn't feeling too great physically and just got in my own head, but my lovely teammates helped me through it. Once the last set was halfway over, I finally realized "I can do this!" and had a great last 5 minutes. Better late than never, right?
The post-workout fatigue hit hours later, and after lunch, a dentist appointment, and a quick power nap, I woke up starving. Scrolling through the #wafflewednesdays on Instagram for five seconds secured my decision– sweet potato waffle!!
I completely eyeballed ingredient measurements, but here's a rough estimate:
- 3/4 cup baked sweet potato, mashed
- 2 egg whites
- splash of vanilla
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/3 cup oats
- sprinkle of cinnamon
Mix everything together and pour into a preheated waffle maker. Difficult, right? 😉
(Adding regular wheat flour probably would've helped it firm up a bit, but I didn't want to.)
As you can see, I topped mine with plain nonfat Greek yogurt, Wild Friends sugar cookie peanut butter, and semisweet chocolate chips. Delicious. And a good mixture of protein, complex carbohydrates, and healthy fats- a perfect, indulgent post-workout snack!

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Smith Barney said it is a great time to own Home Depot HD, +0.32% and Lowe's Companies LOW, -1.00% as the drag on sales from bad weather are already well known, valuations are approaching the lowest levels in a decade, the housing industry remains strong. Analyst Bill Sims believes the home improvement industry is less cyclical than investors believe given the fundamental shift over the last few years of how consumers think of and invest in their homes. "In our view, this renders Home Depot and Lowe's less vulnerable to macro and interest rate volatility, and over time, should translate into above-market multiples for both," Sims said. "We believe Home Depot and Lowe's are discounting too much bad news at these prices." Home Depot, a component of the Dow industrials, was last up 2.7% at $36.33 and Lowe's was adding 1.1% to $52.68.

Offshore.. The offshore is still very slow, with only a sailfish or two caught, or even raised to the spread, by each boat per day. Look for next week's fish count to rise. The yellowfin tuna are still a hit or miss situation.
However, Capt. Doug Schreiber of Wisconsin, host of the "On the Water Adventures" fished two days with Anuar on the panga Perigrino. He and his fishing partner, Tim Quadracci got two sailfish the first day, and two sails the second day, with a nice yellowfin as a bonus.

Home Refinance Links
Let us help you find what you are looking for:
Self Employed Refinancing
Many of our inquiries come from those that are self-employed home owners or those that are looking for a new home purchase loan. We know that your situation is unique and that you may be apprehensive about the challenges you may face when getting a mortgage or refinancing. If a borrower is employed at a company, lenders generally require two continuous years of W2's and the two most recent paycheck stubs. Being self-employed, those income documents are not a viable option. There are other means of proving your income to lenders and in some cases you may not have to show income at all. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the benefits and/or process of refinancing or obtaining a mortgage loan, please fill out our inquiry box and we will have a mortgage professional contact you promptly.

DTN Midday Livestock Comments
Mixed Trade Limits Livestock Volume
Livestock markets are mixed in a narrow trading range at midday after giving back most of the early morning market shifts. Trade volume is sluggish at best, which is allowing for light buyer activity to move back into the complex. Corn markets are higher in light trade activity. September corn futures are 5 cents higher. Stock markets are higher in light trade. The Dow Jones is 115 points higher, while Nasdaq is up 51 points.
Narrow gains have slowly trickled into most live cattle trade. This is helping to spark some additional underlying support across the complex. Nearby futures are trading 10 to 40 cents per cwt higher with very limited overall activity seen in deferred markets. Sluggish activity is likely to be seen through the end of the session with prices hovering in the current trading range. Cash cattle interest remains sluggish at best with asking prices and bids still generally unavailable. The back-and-forth shift in futures trade has limited interest on both sides and will likely push cash sales toward the end of the week. Boxed beef cut-outs at midday are higher, up $1.87 (select) to up $1.12 per cwt (choice) with light movement of 52 total loads reported (21 loads of choice cuts, 14 loads of select cuts, 3 loads of trimmings, 14 loads of ground beef).
Limited activity is seen through feeder cattle futures with very limited interest seen across the complex. This may add some additional uncertainty to the complex as traders are looking for the most pressure in deferred contracts. These deferred markets are holding losses of 40 to 60 cents per cwt as traders are focusing not only on beef demand, but also outside market shifts.
Narrow gains have held in most lean hog futures at midday, although the inability to hang onto strong early gains of $1 per cwt through nearby contracts continues to erode the overall confidence of buyers at this point. But traders continue to look at a firming market trend although cash markets are still under strong pressure. Cash prices are lower on the National Direct morning cash hog report. The weighted average price is down $1.10 at $42.63 per cwt with the range from $42.00 to $43.50 on 4,560 head reported sold. Cash prices are unreported due to confidentiality on the Iowa/Minnesota Direct morning cash hog report. The National Pork Plant Report posted a total of 202 loads selling with cutout values falling 0.74 per cwt at $70.27 per cwt in the morning report. Lean hog index for 8/10 is at $58.81 down 1.76 with a projected two-day index of $56.81, down 1.47.

So this morning, I was thinking about God's plan for my life and what that is going to look like when we move to Virginia. At the same time I was also thinking about my sin and my struggles.
The thing I was reminded of this morning, is that when I choose to live in sin, I attempt to put God's plan away for a time.
We need to have a habit of repentance. We are to carry our cross daily. We are to surround ourselves with those that will build up our faith, because fear and doubt hate community.
Here are two scriptures that directly relate to this battle:
"What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life." Romans 6:1-4
"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us." Hebrews 13:1
Both sin and God's plan feel good, the difference is that sin is a temporary release to a permanent issue.
Whether of not we are going to give in to sin is up to us… I choose life.
What are some ways that you keep on track?

BUSINESS owners have raised concerns about plans to introduce costly permits to park near their premises.
Flintshire County Council is considering changes to the parking behind New Street, Mold, to create more permit holder only spaces.
There are currently a number of spaces used by businesses which are free, as there are no marked bays and they are not officially part of New Street car park.
Now the county council plans to create 11 more spaces for permit holders only at a cost for £160 a year, which would be offered to businesses on Wrexham Street.
In a letter to Mold Town Council, the county council says the changes are needed to resolve anomalies with the car park.
Mark Jones, owner of Swag and Absolute Cutters on New Street, says parking problems have been a nightmare for years.
"The area behind New Street is a no man's land. It's not part of New Street car park and there are no signs saying you can't park there. The yellow lines behind the stores were painted years ago by previous business owners, not the council.
"I think it's disgusting we can't park behind our businesses.
"We pay rates on the understanding the premises come with parking. The parking bays should be allocated to businesses for free. The area is so small, that if two bays were given to each business everything would be fine.
"We will definitely be putting forward an objection to this scheme and we won't be paying for any permit!"
Derek Kirby, head of highways policy at Flintshire County Council, said: "Having consulted with Mold Town Council and having received their views we are now intending to consult local businesses and other interested parties before taking forward any proposals."
