I worked at Brookdale Senior Living full-time
Because most of the people are in the field, it feels like a small company at the corporate level.
Both a pro and a con - its internal infrastructure still is in the developmental stages. However, you can be a part of this change effort.
Never lose sight of the front line associates who truly make the experience for the customer.

Expectations are unrealistic. Office support staff does not provide any support.Advice to ManagementAdvice
This company forces residents to use Brookdale Home Health and they are not offered a choice. They sign residents up for services they do not need or want. They need to clean house in upper management that cares only about the bottom line - not the resident's well being.Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEO

I worked at Brookdale Senior Living full-time (more than an year)Pros
The residents and their families were a joy. There was never a dull moment in our community as far as interesting, sweet, hilarious and lovely older people are concerned. They are the life blood of the communities and make it all worthwhile.Cons
Oh, where to be-GIN! Very little training, lots of online resources, and you can always call a regional person who will put up with your call the same way they would a bill collector. There is too much gossip and back-stabbing, closed door good ol' boy meetings and nepotism. They nickle and dime the residents on every tiny thing, and so help you if you have to "walk someone through" the billing process. I have nick-named this company Crookdale because they are going to take you coming and going, whether you are a resident, family member, employee or manager. If you think you will make a difference by working here, you are sorely mistaken. This company will suck the life-blood out of you until you are a hollow shell and then give you a hard time about taking time off.
You will work at least 60 hours a week if you are a salaried manager and you better smile and pretend to like it, otherwise you are labeled with a "bad attitude". There is a fine line between streamlining and sweatshops. I shudder to think about how the company culture will suffer with the misguided acquisition of Emeritus. If you haven't had a bad Crookdale experience yet, I can guarantee you will once "X percent of elder persons over 65 will be within a ten mile radius of a Brookdale Community". The only good way to have a relationship with Brookdale is to be a stock-holder. Brookdale reeeeeeeeeeally loves their stock-holders.Advice to ManagementAdvice
Ditch the feel good tripe you shove down the throats of new employees. Throw out the perks they're promised, they never get to use them anyways. Tell new employees exactly what your culture is like: you want all of their time for the absolute lowest wage they will take, you will place the rules in direct opposition to their conscience and instinct to care for the residents and you will force them to abide by rules that do not apply to everyone...just the people you think need to be taught a lesson.
Come down off your high horse and work as a server or a CNA in your buildings. Actually do the work in the time you allow for these workers to complete care on someone in one of your subacute units. Work on the maintenance crew. Go in on a HOLIDAY WEEKEND! If you are going to sell Memory Care, make damn sure you are giving the residents everything you promise (and charge them for). You should be ashamed, executive management team of Crookdale Elder Holding Pens Nationwide, regionals and all. This is not the way to care for the people who raised your generation, saw a country through Depression, Recessions and War. It's not enough to put someone in an Assisted Living room, you have to have the staff and the spendable hours to foster a quality of life. This doesn't make them "needy", this makes them an elder in your care! The industry has changed over the last 15 years, the age your residents are coming to you has increased, the income of these people has steadily decreased and the Medical Assistance rules (if you are one of the few Brookdales that actually accepts state aid) are set up for the elderly to be denied assistance. And it's not like Brookdale is going to do anything to help with that process either.
Either be an all-inclusive, pay-through-the-nose, elitist "no pay-no stay" health spa/resort/casino/brothel/community and advertise yourself as such, or be truthful in what you put in your *very expensive* tv adverts. It is disgraceful what you have done to this industry and us jerks at the bottom of the totem poles doing all the grunt work. You are too big for your own good and I can't wait to see you fall.Doesn't RecommendPositive OutlookDisapproves of CEO

Thirty Rosneft subsidiaries in most of the regions of the Company presence, from Sakhalin in the east to the Arkhangelsk Region in the west, took part in the All-Russian Environmental Cleanup Day 'Green Russia'. As part of the event, Rosneft subsidiaries workers made a vital contribution to the environmental situation improvement in towns, villages, and parks.
The event was supported by the Russian Federation Ministry of Natural Resources, the Russian Federation Ministry of Regional Development, regional government executive bodies, and by non-governmental organizations. Companies of the Rosneft Group take part in this event for the second consecutive year.
In the Samara Region, Samaraneftegaz employees carried out site improvements within the Samara Bend national park, natural and cultural site, which receives more than million visitors per year. Most of them are unorganized tourists, who unfortunately damage the park by litter. The cooperation with the park started back in 2010, when oil workers helped to backfill tourist trails, paint summerhouses and benches. In the following years, in addition to litter collection, employees of the major oil producing enterprise in the region have planted about 350 trees. In 2013, oil workers planted about 5 thousand pine plants in the area of 6 hectares. During this year event, 40 employees of Samaraneftegaz cleaned up the territories adjacent to the recreational area, mounted benches, and fixed hard landscaping. Oil workers intend to participate in supporting natural environment of the park in future.
Employees of Novokuibyshev Oils and Additives Plant took part in domestic garbage collection along the lake shore in
Lebedi village, place of resort of the citizens. In addition to it, the plant employees patronize the villages in Novokuibyshev suburbs. Since the beginning of the year, with the use of specialized machinery they have collected and removed 70 tones of litter. In place of the former waste ground cleared by the plant employees, there will be constructed a children's playground.
Young professionals from Ryazan Oil Refinery took part in domestic garbage collection within the grove on Beryozovaya street, one of the top destinations among Ryazan citizens. The area of more than 1 thousand square m has been cleaned up. Besides, Ryazan Oil Refinery has been taking part in domestic garbage collection and green planting organization on city centre streets for 12 years.
About 100 employees of Saratov Refinery took part in cleaning up the pine forest, place of resort of Saratov citizens. The event was accompanied by musical bands performances.
Employees of 50 workshops of process managements of Yuganskneftegaz were actively involved in cleaning landscape territories within Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous District-Yugra, and painting objects of the park infrastructure. The employees annually participate in events aimed at sanitation, landscaping and site finishing, provide support to municipal formations.
Employees of RN-Severnaya Neft in Usinsk (the Komi Republic), and of RN-Purneftegaz in Gubkinsky (the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District) cleaned up urban areas.
Similar events have been also organized in other Rosneft subsidiaries. Rosneft puts a priority on prevention and decrease of adverse environmental impact. The Company is implementing Health, Safety and Environmental Policy, which in particular provides for increase of industrial and environmental safety of the Company production sites to the level complying with the best rates of world oil companies, constant development of the control system in the region of ISLPE, and decrease of industrial risks from newly introduced objects.
The integrated management control system of industrial safety, work safety, and environment certificated against international standards OHSAS 18001:2007 and ISO 14001:2004 successfully operates in Rosneft. The significant step was to sign a Declaration on Protection of the Environment and Biodiversity for Oil and Gas Exploration and Development on the Russian Arctic Continental Shelf prepared at the initiative of Rosneft in cooperation with its partners, such leading world energy companies as Statoil, ExxonMobil, and Eni.

Are These Men Making Us All Fat?
Our food is making us fat, according to Jacques Peretti in The Men Who Made Us Fat on BBC 2 Thursdays. We're all 3st heavier than we were in the 1960s and Peretti explores the reasons in this three-part series. In his Guardian article this week, Peretti says:
On average, in the UK, we are all - every man, woman and child - three stone heavier than we were in the mid-60s. We haven't noticed it happening.
This almost made me snort my coffee out of my nose. As if anyone in a million years could seriously think we haven't noticed 'it' with the media firing into our brains a battery of 'you are too fat' bullets so relentlessly that we've all become paranoid about being overweight even if we aren't.
Peretti goes on to ask: Why are we so fat?
We have not become greedier as a race. We are not, contrary to popular wisdom, less active - a 12-year study, which began in 2000 at Plymouth hospital, measured children's physical activity and found it the same as 50 years ago. But something has changed.
He goes on to assert that the reason is 'very simple'. It's the food we eat. More specifically, the amount of sugar and high fructose corn syrup (HFC) in our food. Sugar, he says, we're often unaware of.
Again, the idea of any of us being unaware of the amount of sugar we eat made me laugh, as not only has HFC and hidden sugar in our diets been the subject of thousands upon thousands of health news reports, being alive today with our media's obsession with healthy eating is akin to being strapped to a chair 24 hours a day with our eyelids pinned open Clockwork Orange-style and forced to watch WeightWatchers adverts on a loop while Gillian McKeith rubs herself all over with fat-free yogurt.
I'm not saying the BBC series would be illogical or wrong to point the finger at the food industry and HFC for the rise in obesity because this is a logical assumption if you consider the chain reaction that does cause weight gain. I'm just hoping the programme won't miss out the biggest, most damaging parts of that chain. As well as the question why are we so fat, Peretti should be asking why are we eating more of the things we're constantly told will make us fat while being made to feel ashamed of our bodies? For the series to miss this out would be to leave a gaping hole so big, it would render the programme pointless.
For anyone seriously researching into this subject it would be very difficult to miss the link between the universal pressure to lose weight and to restrict food and the overconsumption of junk foods that might contain HFC. Has this documentary missed this huge part of the story or will the BBC have the courage to delve into the role that dieting plays in obesity?
Promisingly, Paretti mentions Ancel Keys in the Guardian piece, linking to his obituary which says:
An important study Keys completed was in 1944, the Minnesota Starvation Experiment, involving 36 conscientious objector volunteers. They lived for six months on semi-starvation diets during which they dropped a quarter of body weight.
Neither the article nor the obituary, however, mentions that after Keys' study the volunteers, all previously mentally healthy, turned into constantly hungry, food and weight obsessed men and with a drive to binge so strong it drove them all to overeat, one of them consuming as much as 11,500 calories in one day. They all regained their weight plus 10% more than before the experiment. Hopefully, this will be covered in the documentary.
Paretti also writes:
One of the by-products of obesity is that a hormone called leptin ceases to work properly. Normally, leptin is produced by the body to tell you that you are full. However, in obese people, it becomes severely depleted, and it is thought that a high intake of sugar is a key reason. When the leptin doesn't work, your body simply doesn't realise you should stop eating.
And here, we have another glaring omission in the article that I'm hoping will be in the programme: while sugar is involved in this leptin process, studies show that dieting, and particularly yo-yo dieting, are the triggers in leptin depletion. And leptin, which inhibits appetite, has a 'fellow hormone' called grehlin, not mentioned, which increases appetite. Researchers report in the New England Journal of Medicine that after dieting ghrelin was found to be 20 per cent higher than at the start of the diet. Leptin and Grehlin alterations are the body's backlash not against sugar consumption but against dieting.
Are Paretti's claims that we're unaware of what we're eating and haven't noticed that we're overweight a sign that The Men Who Made Us Fat is set to take us down an old, worn path that will lead us to the usual dead end with futher pressure to lose weight and further dieting? It seems a strange thing to say in a world where the global weight loss industry will be worth more than £370 billion by 2014 and newspapers report that the average Brit will be on a diet for 14 years and women spend £150,000 on diet products and services in their lifetime. And where all the new independent research points towards dieting causing weight gain and a government report states clearly that dieting causes binge eating.
While it's obvious that too much sugar and high fructose corn syrup is bad for us, it looks very much like sugar and HFC would be having little effect if we weren't being driven by dieting to eat more of them.
Promisingly, Peretti does mention the food industry's connection to the diet industry...
The industry is tied into a complex matrix of other interests: drugs, chemicals, even dieting products. The panoply of satellite industries that make money from obesity means the food industry's relationship to obesity is an incredibly complex one.
...but it ends there. I'm not sure how a rise in obesity would benefit the food industry (surely from their point of view being fat would appear to encourage people to eat less?), but I can see how global obesity would benefit the diet industry because everyone would be clamoring to them, cash in hand. I know, though, that the food and diet industries are often the same giant corporations. A complex matrix indeed.
The most interesting comment in Peretti's article is this one:
Did they [the food industry] understand the neuroscience? No. But they learned experientially what worked. This is highly controversial. If it could be proved that at that some point the food industry became aware of the long-term, detrimental effects their products were having on the public, and continued to develop and sell them, the scandal would rival that of what happened to the tobacco industry.
A very brave thing to say. And there certainly are parallels between what's happening here and the scandal of the tobacco industry but it's the diet industry that should be subject to lawsuits. Unlike the food industry the diet industry does understand the neuroscience. Maybe if we all watch this programme and replace the words 'food industry' with 'weight loss industry' and 'sugar/HFC' with 'dieting' we'll come a whole lot nearer to the truth.
I'm hoping against all hopes that The Men Who Made Us Fat, which has the chance to be the first TV contribution to break the virtual media blackout on what will soon be a univerally accepted truth, will have the courage to report the whole story. From this Guardian article, though, I'm not sure it will.

WESTCHESTER COUNTY, N.Y. -- Over the years, many people have asked me, "Do you know an artist who would volunteer to .. paint a mural for my son's school … perform at a benefit for our library … do a workshop for a group of seniors?"
This is a well-meaning request on the part of someone who wants to do good for a cause. Yet, my answer would always be "no." So, on this the advent of Labor Day, as an artist myself, I would like to come clean on this matter.
Yes. Of course I know lots of artists who would probably stand up for a good cause in a Westchester minute. The truth is that, I would not want to ask them. When pressed further on such a request, I just can't help myself from blurting out," Do you pay your dentist and your plumber?" Yes, of course you do because what they do for you is "work." And that is what artists do…"work."
The fact that artists may enjoy their work more than a dentist or a plumber (no offense) is no reason to punish them at the checkout counter. Being an artist is hard work. It takes years of training, hours of practice and days of self doubt. It takes years to travel that road from amateur to professional … from "I paint" to "I am a painter." And there is no precise moment when, like a lawyer or a doctor, an artist's fee grows from $35 an hour to $200 an hour.
But it's not about the money, although that is the measure of value in our society. It is about worth. We could say that worth is value, but I think we would be cutting it short.
Worth to an artist is likely to be about a quality that commands esteem or respect, as used for example to describe "a person of worth." And, because an artist's work is an extension of self, the transaction is always about self worth. So, if you are ever tempted to ask an artist to do something for nothing, think on Labor Day how hard it is to make a living as an artist every day.

Future Syracuse Point Guard Kaleb Joseph Is Looking For A Workout "Dummy"
Facebook is a useful tool for incoming freshmen. Many use it to find people with similar interests, schedule meet-ups with other future classmates in their area, and even find roommates. Future Syracuse guard Kaleb Joseph, the heir apparent to the starting point guard spot left vacant by Tyler Ennis, shouldn't have any of those issues. He's just worried that he won't be able to find anyone to ball with at 2 am on a random weeknight.
Joseph took to the Syracuse Class of 2018 page to try to find a "workout dummy." He should probably avoid paying people, there's probably any number of NCAA rules against something like that, plus $20 goes a long way for a college freshman. Either way, with the state of the art Carmelo Anthony Center on campus, Kaleb shouldn't have too much trouble finding some people to work out with at any hour of the night.

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

Commuters' fury at rail fare rises that will see annual season tickets go up by as much as £400
Related Articles
Published: 28 November 2012
Angry rail commuters today lashed out at "painful" inflation busting fare increases that will push up annual season tickets by as much as £400 in the New Year.
Commuters face an average 4.2 per cent rise - one percentage point above inflation - when they return to work after Christmas on January 2 but on some routes the rise could be as high as 6 per cent.
It is the tenth consecutive year that fares have risen above the cost of living.
Many warned that the spiralling cost of commuting has become such a heavy financial burden that it will cost David Cameron their votes at the next election.
Communications consultant Neil Mackwood who commutes daily with his wife from Stonegate in East Sussex and faces a combined £352 rise in the New Year, said: "It is becoming so unaffordable we are reaching a huge tipping point that will be a demographic disaster.
The countryside around London is becoming fossilised because young families can't afford to move out of London. It is already starting to affect schools.
"It costs us more than £5000 each to commute by the time parking charges, petrol for the drive to station and transport at the other end are taken into account.
"And it is such a fragile service, if one thing goes wrong you know you're going to be half an hour or an hour late for work.
"Yesterday I had to stand the entire one hour ten minute journey from Charing Cross because they had changed the configuration of coaches. Last week some fool pulled the communication cord and we were left waiting outside Tunbridge Wells."
Public affairs adviser Jonathan Sheppard, who commutes daily with his wife from Newark in Notts, said: "We will have to find an extra £800 in the New Year and you know that your salary is not going to go up as fast as your season ticket.
"The Government talks about supporting the squeezed middle and about delaying the 3p rise in petrol. But something should be done for the rail commuters."
Richard Hebditch, Campaigns Director for Campaign for Better Transport said: "Come January, the millions who rely on the trains will yet again find themselves out of pocket.
"Pricing people off the railways is bad for passengers, bad for the environment and bad for the economy. Government must act on its promise to stop above inflation rises."
"The government backed down on its plans for even higher fare rises from January, but this hike is still twice as big as average wage rises. After ten years of above inflation increases, train fares are simply too expensive for many people."
Mortgage rates at below 3 per cent means that it is now often a better option to buy a home in London - despite record property prices - than in the commuter belt after transport costs are taken into account, according to research from home finders County Homesearch.
Shadow Transport Secretary Maria Eagle said: "A one nation economy requires the spiralling cost of getting to work to be brought under control.
"Labour would strictly enforce the fare cap on every route and restore the ban on train companies imposing higher increases."
A spokesman for the Association of Train Operating Companies (ATOC) said: "It is the government, not train companies, that decides how much season tickets should rise on average each year.
"Successive governments have instructed train companies every year to increase these regulated fares on average by more than inflation.
"In doing so, ministers have been seeking to cut the contribution from taxpayers towards the running costs of the railway and increase the share that comes from passengers."
Research from commuter group Passenger Focus found that only 29 per cent of commuters are satisfied they are getting value for money from their tickets.
Rail Minister Norman Baker said: "Family budgets are being squeezed, so that is why this Coalition Government has taken proactive steps to cut the planned fare rises from 3% to 1% above inflation until 2014.
"This decision puts an average of £45 per year back into the pockets of over a quarter of a million annual season ticket holders.
"Many more holders of weekly and monthly season tickets could also see lower fare rises and some commuters could be over £100 better off.
"It is misleading to search for the highest increase and then imply that represents the average, as some I am afraid will do. It's worth noting that some fares, such as the season ticket from Shenfield to London, are actually going down. It's also worth pointing out that we are engaged in the biggest rail investment programme since the 19 century and it is only right that the passenger, as well as the taxpayer, contributes towards that.
"In the longer term we are determined to reduce the cost of running the railways so that we can end the era of above inflation fare rises."

I asked out my BGF and everything got awkward after that. After a few days the weirdness wore off but then he told me who he was crushing on. It wasn't me. But every time he sees me, he blushes. Every time we talk he stares deep into my eyes. I feel like he likes me.

Disney adding 2,000-room resort
Send this to a friend
Walt Disney World announced plans to build a new 2,000-room hotel near its Pop Century Resort that focuses more on family suites.
Disney's Art of Animation Resort — expected to open in 2012 — will feature more than 1,100 suites with room for up to six people, plus 900 regular hotel rooms.
The resort will include wings based on the popular Disney films "Cars," "Finding Nemo," "The Lion King" and "The Little Mermaid."
Disney officials declined to disclose project costs, but said groundbreaking will take place this summer, and the project is expected to generate about 800 construction jobs.

Prep Sports: Quick resolution on strike good for athletics
By Matt Nestor
Prep Sports Reporter
The recent strike from the teachers of Rockford Public School District 205 had absolutely nothing to do with athletics. But it had the potential for the biggest impact on most students.
Spring sports were getting into full swing, and after a highly successful fall and winter for area athletes, you did not want to see that momentum stifled.
Sports in the spring also sees some of the highest participation rates with more sports taking place like track, baseball and softball that involve a lot of athletes, giving a lot of kids the ability to end their high school careers on a high, and maybe even provide a last chance to get some kind of college scholarship.
With unseasonably warm weather, it seemed like it would be a best-case scenario for all athletes. The short strike just ensured it was like a normal Illinois fall.
"We usually schedule a few extra games because we lose three or four to the weather," Rockford Jefferson Athletic Director and current NIC-10 President Todd Zimmerman said.
The quick resolution also helped the schools and the conference avoid a doomsday scenario when it comes to scheduling.
Only one conference match-up in all sports was missed, and a few weekend games and tournaments were all that were ultimately affected.
As all of the athletic directors talked in the conference, they had all agreed to make rescheduling conference games the top goal, even if that meant canceling non-conference games.
Zimmerman said most of his time during the strike was spent on the phone, talking to athletic directors at other schools and letting them know if teams would be showing up or not.
"We started with the canceling," Zimmerman said. "Just had to track everybody down and let them know we weren't coming. We all agreed that if it went on for a little bit, the conference games would be the top priority."
The good news is everything was settled quickly, however, and all sports are back to action as normal. After a year spent thus far with state championships and impressive record performances, athletic directors, coaches and athletes all had the same reaction when the agreement was reached Saturday, March 31.
"It's a big relief," Zimmerman said.
