I worked at Avon Products
Avon creates an atmosphere within the workplace that provides an almost endless opportunity for personal and professional growth along with giving respect, dignity, trust, humility and high standards as a foundation.
A certain amount of office politics can, at times, manifest itself for certain types of associates. Although I have not personally experienced it, I have seen it from time to time.
Revisit the practice of empowering the associates to feel more comfortable in taking an active role in regards to working with management to create the most efficient customer service agenda.

-Too much focus on recruiting, "Leadership", they call it
-Not enough incentives for high sales, it is all going for "Leadership"
-Have to get five in leadership before you make any money
-More focused on the quantity of reps they can get signed up, instead of the quality, they would do much, much, better in the long run if they focused on quality
-A small amount of customers who are 'high maintainence' and spend little money
-District managers are overworked
-Lots of expenses for brochures, samples, advertising, etc, but gets better and cheaper as you become establishedAdvice to ManagementAdvice
Stop focusing so much on MLM, it makes Avon look bad. Make recruiting bonuses available, but for each person brought in, not when you have five and become a Unit Leader. Focus more on product knowledge for reps. Have a base salary when reps reach a certain level in sales, that is where to put your money, instead of throwing it at silly "Leadership" incentives.Recommends

The Town of Oakville has asked Halton police to keep a closer eye on Millstone Park following two late night acts of arson that occurred there earlier this month.
On Aug. 1, vandals set fire to a portable toilet within the Pine Glen Road/Millstone Drive park.
Two weeks later, individuals set fire to a second portable toilet, which had recently been brought to the area to replace the first incinerated amenity.
A slide on the nearby children's playground was also torched.
To date, the damage estimate from these incidents stands at $1,500.
This is not the first time the park has been the target of arson.
During July of last year, the park's gazebo was set on fire.
Area resident Richard Noronha said there has been a problem with late night partying in Millstone Park for years.
"It's just getting worse," he said.
"The parking lot is not lit at night and it is open, so you get people who will come in there and turn up the stereos in their cars and you will hear them partying in there...They'll get belligerent and you can hear them swearing in the middle of the night. You can hear them trying to damage the children's playground."
Noronha said the late-night rowdiness is fairly consistent, usually running from 11 p.m. to 2-3 a.m.
It mostly occurs over the weekend, but does occur on a weeknight from time to time, he noted.
Noronha said he and other residents regularly call police, but this hasn't stopped the partygoers from returning on a different day.
Chris Mark, director of the Town's Parks and Open Space Department, said the Town is taking action to deal with the vandalism.
"The police have been contacted and I have asked Halton police to do some additional patrols of the park. They do have their summer-long program where they have uniformed officers on bikes who are monitoring our parks and our trail systems," said Mark.
"I have asked them to include Millstone in their rounds to see if we can either catch this person or at least make it visible that the police are out there so it doesn't happen again."
Mark said he has also asked the Town's parks patrol staff to drop by Millstone on a regular basis to add an additional presence to the area.
Noronha said he has noticed an increased police presence in the area since the fires, but said more is needed to really solve the problem.
"I think the Town should light the park up, light the parking lot. That will be a deterrent. This way they can't hide. There is no cover of darkness," said Noronha.
"I don't know whether the rest of the residents here will have an issue with that. Another option is to just close the park's gate at night. Most of these people are coming in here with their vehicles, so just close the gates."
Mark said he is not aware of regular late night partying taking place in Millstone Park.

Prospect of a giant arms bazaar causes neighbours to panic
A mass exodus of refugees is only one of the region's problems, writes Andrew Gumbel
Saturday 15 March 1997
In fact, a mass exodus may be the least of the international community's problems. Albanians have learned enough about the outside world to realise they will never rise above the drudgery of manual labour if they opt to flee. They are more likely, according to crime experts, to stay at home and set up an enormous arms bazaar, making money by exporting organised crime into Western Europe and beyond.
"We're going to see a lot of armed robberies involving Kalashnikovs in Thessaloniki and Athens," commented Nikos Sourelis, a businessman in the Greek border town of Ioannina, who knows Albania well.
Rebel commanders estimate that in the southern town of Saranda alone there are 5,000-6,000 automatic weapons in the hands of the people. Add to that the arsenals of Delvina, Himara, Gjirokaster, Tepelena, Vlora, Berat, Lushnja, Elbasan, Shkoder and the capital, Tirana, and a terrifying picture begins to emerge.
The weapons may not just be sold abroad through mafia networks. They may circulate in the Balkans to fuel other regional conflicts. In the past few days, army depots have been raided in the northern towns of Trepoja and Bajram Curri, not to arm supporters of President Sali Berisha, as some have reported, but to create an opportunity for business with ethnic Albanians across the mountains in Kosovo.
Kosovars arming themselves for a possible conflict with their Serb rulers have been buying Kalashnikovs from Albania for $700 (pounds 400) apiece, according to informed Albanian sources. "Most people have grabbed these weapons to have a concrete source of income in their hands," a Tirana resident said.
The Greek government has been most directly concerned by the smuggling threat, since its border post with Albania, at Kakavia, has become ever more lawless in the past week. First the Albanian customs police surrendered their arms and ran away. Then armed gangs moved into the area to seize cars and other goods coming in from Greece. One driver who refused to give up his car was killed on Tuesday night, prompting the Greeks to threaten to seal the border altogether.
The Greek army has set up two lines of checkpoints all the way across its border with Albania. Coming in from Kakavia, soldiers check every passing vehicle. Immigrants are not the chief concern, as British and US citizens are checked every bit as thoroughly as Albanians. Officials in Athens say there is also a third layer of security operated by undercover agents, on the look-out for potential smugglers and criminals in the main towns in the Epirus region.
Weapons are only one of many worries. "I don't think these Kalashnikovs have much mass-market appeal, at least not in Greece, since more modern, lighter weapons, like Uzis, are far more practical for bank robberies," one government official commented.
Drugs are the really big issue in Greece. Hard drugs from Turkey have been entering the country in large quantities for some time, either directly or via Macedonia, according to Western intelligence officials. Now there is a risk that marijuana grown in southern Albania may flood the Greek market too.
Albania's other key neighbour, Italy, is, if anything, more exposed to the influx of arms and drugs; its Adriatic coast is notoriously prone to smuggling activities and its mafia organisations are already well ensconced in operations with Albania. Italy receives large quantities of heroin travelling along an established drugs route from Turkey, through Bulgaria, Macedonia and northern Albania. The country has also been used, according to Italian investigators, as an entry point for arms flooding out of the Balkan region for resale in Africa and South America.
The danger is that protracted chaos in Albania will make such smuggling routes easier to operate, exposing Italy to large quantities of contraband goods and strengthening domestic organised crime networks.
Such issues have received little public airing in either Italy or Greece, with officials and the media preferring to talk about the more tangible risk of mass emigration. Many of those now escaping are members of the armed forces or of Mr Berisha's old government - people with a political, not a personal, reason to escape.
The Danish Foreign Minister, Niels Helveg Petersen, has suggested paying the insurgents to give up their weapons. Mr Helveg Petersen, the President of the Organisation for Cooperation and Security in Europe, clearly believes it is better to invest in peace now than risk a far more costly international intervention if the situation continues to deteriorate.

NH 'Idol' challenger to sing in show's final 8 tonight
Preston, whose real name is Alex Preston Philbrick, is now one of the top eight contestants in the singing competition.
The public is encouraged to attend at 8 tonight, although the doors will open one hour before the show begins.
The remaining eight contestants will take the stage to perform the songs they originally showed the judges during their auditions last year.
The 20-year-old musician said his shyness won't stop him from pursuing his dream.
During a break from the show in February, Preston performed at his old stomping ground, Souhegan High School, where he encouraged the student body to work hard and never give up on their dreams.
Preston took the time to thank his support network and fans — especially those in New Hampshire.
The bottom three vote-getters will be announced at 9 p.m. Thursday, and one more contestant will be sent home from the competition.

ACLJ Calls For Release Of American Pastor In Iran
This week for the first time, the U.S. State Department in its: daily press briefing: spoke out about American Pastor Saeed Abedini who has been imprisoned in Iran for his Christian faith. The State Department expressed its "serious concerns" about his fate and acknowledged that the sole reason for his imprisonment in Iran is because of his "religious beliefs."
The: ACLJ: is pleased that the time has come that the State Department has begun to speak out about the abuse of this American citizen. They should have, however called for the immediate release of Mr. Abedini.
Pastor Saeed's imprisonment for his Christian faith is a clear and absolute violation of international human rights laws, and we urge the State Department to employ every available measures to secure the immediate release of Pastor Saeed, an American citizen.
The: State Department's statement: is below:
"We have serious concerns about the fate of two U.S. citizens detained in Iran, Amir Hekmati and Saeed Abedini. Let me start with Mr. Abedini. He was arrested by Iranian officials more than three months ago on charges related to his religious beliefs. We understand that a hearing will be held soon, and we call on Iranian officials to respect Iran's own laws and provide Mr. Abedini access to an attorney."
Over 66,000 Americans have already spoken out on Pastor Saeed's behalf urging action from the U.S. government to free this persecuted pastor. As we saw repeatedly in Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani's case, when thousands of people here in America and around the world take action, governments listen, and that immense international pressure led to Pastor Youcef's eventual release both times Iran has imprisoned him.
Please continue to pray, share his story, and: sign our petition for his release.
Jordan Sekulow is Executive Director of the American Center for Law and Justice.

WASHINGTON – The prospective partners of Ardent Mills on March 27 amended a termination rights provision of their partnership agreement. The change was detailed in a Form 8-K filed March 31 with the Securities and Exchange Commission by ConAgra Foods, Inc.
In the filing, ConAgra said its March 4, 2013, agreement to establish Ardent in partnership with Cargill and CHS contained "customary termination rights, including the right to terminate the transaction if it has not closed by March 31, 2014 (which may be extended to June 30, 2014 in certain financing-related circumstances)."
ConAgra noted that on Feb. 10, 2014, the company offered a revised timeline for completion of the transaction in which the closing was expected by the end of June 2014. ConAgra at the time cited an ongoing regulatory review process as one factor among "various reasons" for the revised timeline.
Consistent with the revised timeline, the three companies on March 27, 2014, amended their agreement "which, among other matters, amends the outside termination date included in the Master Agreement so that the parties may terminate the transaction if it has not closed by June 30, 2014 (which may be extended to September 30, 2014 in certain financing-related circumstances)."

Thanksgiving has loads of traditions. But for Julia, it's also about the Black Friday deals!
Here, she shares her best Black Friday money-saving (and pretty funny!) tips.
Thanksgiving has loads of traditions. But for Julia, it's also about the Black Friday deals!
Here, she shares her best Black Friday money-saving (and pretty funny!) tips.
Our team recently came across an article called "17 People Who Maybe Should Have Hired a Babysitter." It was supposed to be funny, but after taking a look- we're not so sure!
Read through and let us know, what do you think should be done in these situations?
Halloween is a huge holiday and it's only getting bigger. Today, Americans spend billions (yes, billions!) of dollars on Halloween, but decades ago it was a little different. We are reminiscing about this spooky holiday—and we hope you'll share your own memories.
Check out Julie's story about her past Halloweens!
Do you remember your first Halloween? What was your favorite part?
We know that taxes can be complicated. When you hire a caregiver, you also need to deal with the paperwork, the rules, new laws…eek! To help families feel more comfortable and confident moving forward, we've created the following easy FAQ for household employers on the Affordable Care Act:
Last October, the first stages of the Affordable Care Act went live. And again this year, October will be the time when Americans looking for health insurance can access the online health insurance exchange where they can compare policies and ultimately purchase a plan that suits their individual needs. Because this is still a relatively new change to the way health insurance is administered, many families are confused or concerned about how the changes will impact them as a household employer.
What is the Affordable Care Act?
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, commonly referred to as the Affordable Care Act, is a federal statute which was signed into law in 2010. The statute is primarily aimed at reducing the overall cost of health care and decreasing the number of uninsured individuals living in the United States by enacting a number of different mandates, subsidies and tax credits.
Am I required to offer health insurance to my employee(s)?
No, employers are not required to offer health insurance if they employ fewer than 50 employees. However, you are required to provide your current employee(s) and, at the time of hire, any future employee(s) with notice of the new Health Insurance Marketplace.
Is my employee required to have health insurance?
Yes, your employee may be charged penalties if she does not have health insurance coverage. However, you are not responsible for making sure your employee has health insurance.
What is the Health Insurance Marketplace?
The Health Insurance Marketplace, or The Marketplace, is a "one-stop shop" where individuals can compare and purchase health insurance policies. Open enrollment for The Marketplace begins on October 1, 2014 for coverage beginning January 1, 2015. Your employee(s) will be able to purchase health insurance through The Marketplace until open enrollment ends on February 15, 2015. For more information on The Marketplace, or to complete an online application for health insurance coverage, please visit www.HealthCare.gov.
How much will health insurance cost?
The cost of health insurance will vary depending on your state and the amount of coverage your employee chooses. After completing an application through The Marketplace, your employee will be able to compare prices and coverage options for different health insurance policies. Depending on your employee's income and family size, she may be eligible for the Advance Premium Tax Credit if she purchases insurance through The Marketplace. The credit can be applied directly to her monthly premiums which results in immediate cost savings. If she qualifies for the Advance Premium Tax Credit, her savings will be reflected in the prices displayed on The Marketplace.
If I contribute to my employee's health insurance policy, will I be eligible for any tax breaks?
If you set up a health insurance policy for your employee through SHOP (Small Business Health Options Program) on the Marketplace and pay at least 50% of your employee's premiums, you may be able to take advantage of the Credit for Small Employer Health Insurance. This credit is up to 50% of the amount you contribute to your employee's health insurance premiums. To take this credit, you'll attach Form 8941 to your personal income tax return. For more information regarding the requirements for contributing to health insurance, please contact HomePay at (888) 273-3356.

Quads (short for quadriceps) are the group of four muscles in the top part of the thighs. Quads, in combination with the hamstrings (back of the thigh) provide an excellent support structure both for the knees as well as the spine. Strength and flexibility of the quads can usually translate to healthy knees and a strong spinal column.
Most people pay very little attention to the quads. In fact, many of my students realize how tight their quads are only when they try to do a certain yoga pose which involves these muscles.
In today's post, I will be presenting a few simple asanas (yoga postures) which will be very helpful in making the quads stronger and more flexible.

Cano goes deep for his fourth home run of the season. Arizona Diamondbacks 2 — New York Yankees 4 Robinson Cano puts the Yankees ahead in tonight's 4-2 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. Robinson Cano, named after Jackie Robinson, a man honored throughout baseball, had the hit of the game tonight. On a 3-2 changeup, Robinson Cano hit an absolute bomb into the right field bleachers for a three-run home run in the fourth inning. This changed a two-run deficit into a one-run lead. Despite this being the only hit with runners in scoring position (1 for 8), it would be enough. Chris Stewart, Kevin Youkilis, and Travis Hafner all had two hits in tonight's game with Hafner's being two doubles. Eduardo Nunez would bring in the other run on a sacrifice fly with the bases loaded in the seventh inning. Vernon Wells is the only Yankee in the lineup to be hitless. Ivan Nova started tonight's game and got through the minimum innings to earn his first win of the season. Nova would have a slow start to the game but would settle down. He would give up two runs in the third inning but that would be it. In five innings, Nova gave up two runs on seven hits with two walks and six strikeouts. He needed 94 pitches to finish five innings, compared to 96 in his losing effort against the Detroit Tigers. The bullpen would bring its best to the mound. Boone Logan would go 1.1 perfect innings in his appearance with two strikeouts. Joba Chamberlain would go 0.2 of an inning and also get all his batters out. David Robertson would get the eighth inning and would allow a hit but would keep the scoreless streak going through the bullpen. Finally, on a day when everyone wears the number 42, the lone active player wearing it on a regular basis got the ninth inning. Mariano Rivera took the mound with a two-run lead and would strikeout the first batter he faced. A pop out and a ground out would end the night, extending the Yankees winning streak to two. Win – Ivan Nova (1-1) Loss – Brandon McCarthy (0-2) Save – Mariano Rivera (3) Notables Diamondbacks *Cody Ross – 2 for 4, RBI (1) *Miguel Montero – 1 for 2, BB, RBI (8) Yankees *Robinson Cano – 2 for 4, R, BB, 3-Run Home Run (4) in the 4th, 3 RBI (11) *Eduardo Nunez – 1 for 3, RBI (2) Current Yankees Record: 7-5 (Streak – W2) Get your Yankees Tickets from our friends at TiqIQ.

At the wheel of the troubled Renault-powered RB10, Daniel Ricciardo had a promising morning — until the latest technical problems left him stranded in the garage for most of the rest of the entire test day.

Scholarships foster a 'unique skill set'
Relevant offers
Horizons Regional Council has granted more than $150,000 of scholarships to science and agriculture students in the past eight years to help meet demand for experts in the sustainable land-use field.
Horizons' Sustainable Land Use Initiative (SLUI) scholarships are available to students studying soil fertility, soil mapping and farm management papers at Massey University in Palmerston North.
Horizons environmental monitoring co-ordinator Malcolm Todd said the scholarship encouraged students to have a particular skill set.
"SLUI aims to control hill-country erosion and is a partnership between Horizons, central government and farmers. When SLUI was introduced in 2006, and initial targets for the programme were set, we identified we had a skill shortage to implement the programme," Todd said.
"One of the reasons for this is we're after a very unique skill set; not only do staff need a soil science background to encourage farmers to manage their soil better, they also need to understand the practical side of running a farm and be able to relate to farmers. For this reason, our SLUI scholarships encourage students to have a combination of these elements."
Todd said that, by setting these restrictions for scholarship funding criteria, Horizons was investing in the future skill set of potential staff.
"Of the 53 students who have received scholarships, 16 have worked for us over the summer months and nine have ended up with fulltime jobs with Horizons. A number of others have also gone on to work for other regional councils or sustainable land-use focused organisations due to their skill set and summer working experience with us."
Horizons also supports students doing research papers in areas helpful to the council's goals such as soil quality, poplar trees and land movement.
"We believe SLUI scholarship students are a valuable asset to any organisation and the success of our recipients speaks for itself."
The scholarship is for fulltime students entering their undergraduate years of study, who want to study soil science and farm management as part of their degree. The scholarship is for a maximum of $2000 over one year.
Advanced scholarships for year 3 and postgraduate programme is for students specialising their 300-level and postgraduate study in soil science, land-use mapping and land management. The scholarship is for a maximum of $10,000 over the course of one year.
Todd said Horizons tried to have a mix of first to fourth-year students and gave out some $5000 scholarships. "With the $10,000 ones, Horizons employs them, as part of the scholarship, for a year, and we can't always do that, given staff numbers, but we want to give some money, so we do give $5000."
He said Horizons was working with Professor Peter Kemp at Massey University to provide a research grant to encourage students to stay and do a masters degree.
Todd said there were many applications for the SLUI scholarship each year.
"Many of them are about dairying, which is not applicable, but we go for people with hill country and a soils background in sheep and beef. It is a SLUI scholarship after all."
He said most people that did the degrees and had scholarships got jobs. Todd said he knew of graduates getting jobs in the fertiliser industry and for regional councils, as well as for private firms in the industry.
Applications for both SLUI scholarships will open in early 2015.

North Korea's leader has a baby daughter: Rodman
SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has a baby daughter, seemingly guaranteeing the future of a dynasty has ruled the isolated and impoverished state for three generations, according to U.S. basketball star Dennis Rodman who met Kim last week.
Kim's wife Ri Sol had appeared to be pregnant in pictures issued last year by North Korea's state news agency, although no confirmation was available. She then disappeared from public view, returning last October.
Rodman, who has visited North Korea twice this year and describes Kim as his "friend", told Britain's Guardian newspaper that he had held the baby.
"I held their baby Ju-ae and spoke with Ms Ri (Sol-Ju, Kim's wife) as well. He's a good dad and has a beautiful family," Rodman was quoted as saying by the newspaper.
Kim Jong-un is the third member of his family to rule North Korea and is believed to be 30 years old. He was effectively anointed as his father's successor in 2010, despite the fact he is the third son.
Given the traditional nature of North Korean society, it is unlikely that Ju-ae would succeed her father, although female relatives of Kim, such as his aunt, occupy key positions in government.

Rated 2 out of 5 by sue13 Customer Satisfaction v. Making a Quick Buck In my recent stay at your hotel, I paid the additional money for wifi access. I was there on business and had a rather sizable amount of work to do. I was very disappointed to learn that the wifi I was paying for was only available in my guest room. The trade show I was attending took place largely in the ballroom, so I needed to gain access to the locked wifi in that area of the hotel. When I approached the concierge, she was icy at best and said I would need to speak with someone at the registration desk. I patiently waited in the registration line for twenty minutes, and when I finally was able to speak with someone, he stated that I couldn't gain access to the wifi (despite my offer to pay an additional fee) because the trade show organizers hadn't purchased it. He suggested I speak with the hotel's event coordinator - however that person wouldn't be back in the office until after the trade show was over. I am deeply disappointed in your hotel's policy and weak customer service. I have suggested that the event move to another, more customer-centric venue in the future. September 10, 2012

Rated 4 out of 5 by Newmex Nice Suite Everything was nice and appropriate. Suite was large and comfortable. Bathroom was standard, but a bit small. Closet was very small and filled with Ironing board, iron, safe, that took up a lot of space. September 20, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Louis43 Hotel in great location Guys weekend to see a Sox game, hang out and see some sites and the Sheraton location was a perfect place for all that. Plus a junior suite was a good addition to have a place for us to gather and talk. September 30, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by roadknitter Great location to see Boston The hotel staff was very helpful. We needed an extra bed and it arrived quickly and was set up in a couple of minutes. Great place to stay, just don't park there. $39 a day is too expensive for parking. September 1, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by PJCRR Boston Marathon weekend This hotel has an excellent location for both runners and spectators here for the Boston Marathon. April 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Aml1 Excellent stay except for parking rates Our room had a gorgeous view of the city. Everything was excellent except for the outrageous parking rates of $39 overnight. The hotel should offer a discount for those who are staying in the hotel. August 17, 2012
