The potential for early intervention to prevent social problems later in life has become the focus of much debate in recent years and finds itself at the centre of contemporary social policy. The meaning of 'vulnerability' one of the key concepts in this drive is examined in this book, as well as the relationship between vulnerability and the individual, communities and society. This book introduces students to a broad debate around what constitutes vulnerability and related concepts such as risk and resilience, and examines how vulnerability has been conceptualised by policy makers with a clear focus on early intervention. Adopting a case study approach, it opens with chapters examining the concept of vulnerability from sociological, psychological and social policy perspectives before looking at examples around disability, homelessness, leaving care, victims of violence, sexual abuse, prison, the Internet and drug use. Supporting students in engaging with and evaluating the conceptualisation and application of vulnerability in professional practice, this book is suitable for anyone either preparing for or currently working within the children's workforce, from social work and health care to education and youth work.

Sherwood Acres Receives Active Schools Acceleration Grant
Sherwood Acres Elementary School was recently awarded a $1,000 grant from the Active Schools Acceleration Project (ASAP). The purpose of the grant is to ensure that students become more physically active throughout their school day. Academic studies show that active students do better. Beyond the health and fitness benefits, physical activity enhances concentration and attention. It also improves attendance and academic performance.
First Lady Michelle Obama helped launch ASAP's Acceleration Grants in collaboration with her "Let's Move! Active Schools" initiative, a campaign designed to bring national attention to the issue of childhood obesity. Sherwood Acres plans to use the grant money to start a 100 Mile Club.

Committee chairman Ron Wallace arranged the tour and shared that he hopes to engage and enlarge chamber interest in what is happening within the public schools in Dougherty County.
Live Oak principal Laytona Stephenson led the group through classrooms, computer labs, the media center, gym, and cafeteria. She responded to questions about preparing students to grow academically while progressing through elementary grades. Committee members attending the visit were Chandu Kuntawala, Dana Wallace and Latressa Perryman. In appreciation for the interest show by chamber officials, public information director R. D. Harter said, "The best way to create a better informed parent and public is to invite them into our schools to see the reality of our world. It is always refreshing to receive feedback from adults about our schools from a first-hand experience inside."

A sensible Christian perspective on Peter Singer
Posted By Ken Perrott On February 27, 2013 @ 4:12 pm In Uncategorized | No Comments
Book review: Peter Singer and Christian Ethics: Beyond Polarization [1] by Charles C. Camosy
[2]Price: US$25.75; Kindle US$16.80
Paperback: 286 pages
Publisher: Cambridge University Press (May 28, 2012)
Language: English
We all "do" morality – its part of being human. We will debate ethical questions till the cows come home. And we will take sides on moral issues, often reacting emotionally, even violently, to those who disagree with us.
But here's a strange thing. Very few of us could name an ethical philosopher. Perhaps because moral questions are of such practical and personal importance ethical discussions at the philosophical level seem to not interest us.
But, those who can produce a name might, in most cases, come up with Peter Singer. This probably supports Charles Carmosy's suggestion that "Singer is probably the world's most influential living philosopher."
Singer won recognition for his work on animal rights – a topical issue today. He has written and lectured extensively on secular morality. But his reputation must also come from the publicity he gets from his philosophical opponents. Particularly philosophers of religion who have demonised some of Singers ideas, and the man himself. It's no accident that in debates with theists Singer's ethical ideas are the most often quoted, by theists, as negative and inhuman examples of secular ethics.
Even bad-mouthing creates recognition so these religious critics may be responsible for making Singer's name so recognisable. That negative propaganda may not stick when people make their own efforts to read Singer.
There's no shortage of mudslinging across the ideological divides of religion. So it's not surprising that there is plenty of hostility and misrepresentation in even the more academic religious critiques of Singer's ideas (See for a local example Peter Singer on Human Dignity and Infanticide: Part One and Peter Singer on Human Dignity and Infanticide: Part Two [3]).
But "truth will out" and Charles Camosy, a Catholic ethicist who is Assistant Professor of Theology at Fordham University, New York, sees "small cracks . . . starting to form in the intellectual wall separating Peter Singer and Christianity." Camosy's book, Peter Singer and Christian Ethics: Beyond Polarization [1] is a significant contribution to widening these cracks.
That's not just my judgement. Peter Singer himself recommends the book. He says:
"Philosophy makes progress through criticism that is based on a sound grasp of the position under scrutiny, acknowledging its strengths as well as seeking to expose its weaknesses. Charles Camosy does exactly that, which is why, despite the deep disagreements between us, I regard Peter Singer and Christian Ethics as a valuable contribution to philosophy in general, and to applied ethics in particular."
The book provides a detailed consideration of the ethical positions of the Catholic Church and of Peter Singer in 5 main areas (devoting a chapter to each):
Each chapter concludes with an assessment of how close, or how different, the two positions are. For example:
Camosy has found large areas of agreement (by the way, he does not neglect the difference between the two positions). But I really like that he goes further and suggests this agreement provides ground for cooperation, discussion and common public platforms.
Readers might be surprised at the amount of agreement Camosy finds between Singers ethical ideas and those of the Catholic Church. However, the common ethical positions found by Camosy does not surprise me. Despite claims of revelation and infallibility the Catholic Church has had to deal with real world issues for a long time. It's natural that much of the ethical positions they arrive at will basically be secular anyway - even if presented with religious phrases and terms.
I think Camosy's concept of ethical objectivity residing in human flourishing and happiness reinforces this. (Although, interesting he does take that further to the flourishing of the universe as a whole). I found refreshing Camosy's references to objective morality without the annoying evangelical habit of seeing that as "divine," without dragging in his god.
At least, most of the time. Towards the end of the book Camosy does seem to sneak his god into the discussion, as a grounding for objective ethics. But only in the last chapter.
While Camosy's ability to find the large extent of ethical agreement he did is heartening to me, some problems do bring me down to earth. Camosy says, and I agree, that the Catholic Church has a very rich tradition of writings and pronouncements on ethical issues. This must have been an immense help to Camosy as he searched for some commonality. However, sometimes I felt this very richness presents a problem. Which piece of contradictory evidence does one rely on? Which particular pronouncement is considered more "official" than the others. The richness itself provides difficulties of choice, and can make a certain amount of "cherry picking" inevitable.
So I sometimes found myself contrasting Camosy's claims with the modern public positions commonly attributed to the Catholic Church, or at least Catholic spokespersons. For example – meat-eating, vegetarianism, abortion and euthenasia. Some Catholics might not agree with Camosy's conclusion about the extent of commonality because they don't completely recognise the Catholic ethics Camosy describes.
Perhaps that's the common problem of differences between church office holders and lay parishioners. But I suggest that in some cases there a more basic disagreements at the level of the office holder or "official."
On the other hand, as an individual with an easily accessible and definitive set of writings, it is much easer to establish Singer's "official" ethical positions. There is less scope for "cherry picking" and one can usually find suitable quotes to show Singer's position on various ethical questions.
In their criticisms of Singer religious apologists have a common habit of inferring an ethical position (and not find a specific quote) from their own biased understanding of ethical labels. Perhaps I have a thing about ideological and political labels, and I am sure Singer objects to their use less than I do. He does, after all, sometimes use descriptive ethical labels in his writings. However, I think some of the more extreme interpretations of Singer's positions does not come from specific quotes or writings of Singer. Instead they come from the description of him as a proponent of "preference utilitarianism," for example, and then inferring a specific ethical position – often relying on the commentators own hostile or simplistic understanding of the label's meaning.
Fortunately Camosy relies on quotes from Singer's writing to describe his ethical positions. Well, at least most of the time. He does slip into use of the "preference utilitarianism" label to ground an inference a few times. And they stood out to me – especially as Camosy himself is arguing towards the end of the book that Singer's ideas are shifting. That "Singer is in the process of fudnamentally rethinking his preference utilitarianism." Even more reason to avoid labels.
I believe this book will be very useful to anyone interested in Singer's ethical philosophy, especially comparing it with that of the Church. Camosy relies mostly on direct quotations from Singer's writings so the book provides a useful summary of his ideas, particularly in the 5 areas mentioned. In fact, there may be more disagreements among Catholics on Camosy's description of Catholic ethical positions. A curse of the "rich tradition" perhaps.
It should help correct some of the misunderstandings that Christians have about Singer's ideas – if only they are open-minded enough to read books like this. I hope their approach top a book by a Catholic ethicist is more sympathetic that their approach to the original writings of Singer.
Considering the ideological differences between singer and the Catholic Church I think Camosy has done his job well. I can excuse him the few lapses that my sensitivities have identified.
And I think Camosy's identification of the possibilities of common action between supporters of Singer and the Catholic Church is very useful. Dare I hope that the church can be open to these possibilities in the future?

Whatever, at least new hair always gets taken out to dinner. It's a marriage rule Sweetie and I have both enjoyed for many years. :)

So cute! I am so glad I live in Colorado where "normally" we don't have too much humidity. Have to say this year has been a little bit of a challenge in that area. Especially since I have naturally curly hair that gets all frizzy with humitity!

Utah woman critically injured by toxic tea at Dickey's Barbecue Pit
A woman is in critical condition after drinking sweet tea that contained a toxic industrial cleaning chemical at a South Jordan restaurant.
The woman, 67, was eating at Dickey's Barbecue Pit, 689 W. South Jordan Parkway, about 1 p.m. Sunday when she poured a glass of sweet tea from the self-service beverage bar, said South Jordan Police Cpl. Sam Winkler.
"She takes a sip, and her mouth instantly starts burning," Winkler said.
She tried to spit out the tea, but her mouth and throat suffered severe burns, Winkler said. Her husband took her to a nearby hospital, and she was flown to University Hospital's burn unit, where she remained in "extremely critical condition" on Wednesday night, Winkler said.
"We're not sure how, but a highly toxic industrial cleaning chemical somehow made its way into the tea," Winkler said.
The chemical is 67 percent sodium hydroxide, commonly known as lye, Winkler said. It is used to clean grease off the restaurants fryers and appears to have been mixed with the tea accidentally.
The restaurant was cooperating with the investigation, Winkler said.

Fun at Thanksgiving Live
I did this little thing called Thanksgiving Live yesterday. It was a live show. About Thanksgiving.
Aren't you glad you have me here to explain these things?
Anyway, Thanksgiving Live was a live show about Thanksgiving on Food Network and when I was invited to participate several weeks ago, I said, "Yes. As long as I don't have to cook anything, say anything, or be on camera."
Just kidding.
Of course I said yes, as I thought it would be a really fun experience. And what a coincidence. It was!
I snapped photos whenever I could throughout the show so I could hurry and share them with you. I was the dodo bird with the camera.
I was the dodo bird with the camera and the sweaty forehead.
I was the dodo bird with the camera and the sweaty forehead who kept adjusting her body-shaping camisole.
I was the dodo bird with the camera and the sweaty forehead who kept adjusting her body-shaping camisole and hiking up her jeans.
I was the…
Sorry. I'll stop now.
Here's Bobby Flay and Rachael Ray!
Ooooh. I wonder if I can do this post in rhymes? It feels good this morning.
Here's Bobby Flay and Giada de Laurentiis!
Okay, so I guess the whole rhyme thing isn't going to work out.
I said this two years ago when I first met Bobby Flay: He's, like, totally awesome in person.
Very nice.
Very polite.
Very confident.
Very charming.
This is Bobby saying "Yo" after I pointed my camera at him and said "Yo."
Sometimes I'm not quite sure how to act in these situations. So I say things like "Yo," then spend four weeks wondering whether or not I should have said "Yo."
I'm thinking no.
Be glad you're not me.
Guess who was gorgeous both inside and out? Giada.
I'd never met her before.
All I can say is this:
I absolutely loved her. She's radiant.
This is the wonderful Sunny Anderson, whom I'd never met in person before yesterday. We've been friends on the Tweeter for some time now, though, and we share an Oklahoma connection. She was born there!
She's precious. I love her.
This is Sunny with Aarón Sanchez, whom I'd met before when we judged Iron Chef together (the episode hasn't aired yet; I'll let you know) several months ago. He has tattoo sleeves, is a ridiculously talented chef, and is very charming.
My kid sister Betsy met him in the hall.
Rachael Ray is quite lovely and somewhat soft spoken in person.
Her turkey was my favorite. I inhaled it.
The whole Food Network kitchen (which is actually like seven or eight kitchens in one) was decorated with all the colors of fall.
I did a little segment on the show where I talked about the colors and plates I like to use for Thanksgiving, and here's what I picked from the prop room.
Since everything on Thanksgiving is brown and orange and tan (the food included) sometimes I like to go to the opposite side of the color wheel and use purples, blues, pinks, etc.
I'm such a rebel.
In my own mind.
At the very end of the show, Alton Brown raced against the clock to see how quickly he could carve a turkey.
He finished it in something like a minute, and he still had all his fingers!
He is the king.
Wow. What an experience for me.
I was a little on the shy side because I didn't want to feel like Flounder in that scene in Animal House when he approaches the cool guys at the frat house.
Press play, please.
That said, everyone was so, so nice to me.
And both the production crew and the kitchen crew were out-of-this-world amazing. Thank you, guys!
I had fun.
I'm so glad I did it!
I ate everyone's food and went back for seconds.
Then Bets and I hopped in the car, headed straight for the airport…
And waved bye-bye to Manhattan.
We're at our mom's house in Tennessee visiting Ga-Ga today.
Then we fly home to Oklahoma together tonight.
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!
Lots and lots of love,
P.S. In case you missed it, Thanksgiving Live will air again today at 4:00 Eastern/3:00 Central!

The show was really so much fun….I can only imagine how nerve-wracking it must have been, but you were cool as a cucumber…and I loved that you were Alton's pie and facebook expert!
Loved your table, too!
That Flounder scene is pretty much ME every time I'm around YOU!!!
Sheri On Monday, November 19 at 9:53 am
I feel good that other people (no matter who they are) feel like Flounder in certain situations. Had a similar experience (or five) at Camp Mighty this weekend.

Sandy On Monday, November 19 at 8:14 am
This won't last before I get this commented posted – but just for the record, this is the First time I am first, usually there have been hundreds if not thousands of replies by the time I see a post. Just saying you are a very popular lady.
About the show, I saw some of it last night. Looked like everyone had a great time. I liked the segments they did on different ways of making different dishes. One thing I noticed though, eating while the camera is rolling should be outlawed. Just saying – it doesn't work well for anyone, ever. Keep up the good times. Have a great Thanksgiving.
ann On Monday, November 19 at 11:28 am
Looks to me like you were #7 but who cares?
Colleen P. On Monday, November 19 at 8:15 am
Ree you did a great job! You seemed a little nervous but frankly I think I'd have been a tongue-tied idiotically grinning bobble head, so the fact that you actually spoke and it made sense…well in my book you did yourself proud! I LOVED your decor ideas for the table, I NEVER would have thought of it but it makes perfect sense. How awesome was the prop room? No, don't tell me…okay, yes, tell me. I'd love to just see the prop room.
Robyn Stone | Add a Pinch On Monday, November 19 at 8:16 am
Loved the show, Ree. You were amazing, as always! Thanks for sharing the behind-the-scenes with us. It looked like a fun food party from start to finish.

Everything about your day makes me GRIN. Loved seeing your instagrams whirlling by.
And I totally believe you could've written this completely in rhyme IF you weren't, you know, leaving on a jet plane.
Wishing I could've seen this show because WOW-O-WOW it's packed with my favorites! Personalities and eats!
Maybe I can Slingbox it while we're in Germany. Hmmm…..
Cinne On Monday, November 19 at 8:18 am
I looooooooved the show and will be watching it again. Fun crowd!
Phyllis On Monday, November 19 at 8:18 am
Ree, you were fabulous! It was such a fun show and I'm so glad I tuned in to see you.
Amy On Monday, November 19 at 8:18 am
My 8 year old is completely in love with Giada…he loves the way she says "Spaghetti." Every time I make it, he uses her accent on the word. It's pretty adorable. He loves his cartoons and Nickelodeon shows, but he'll always stop what he's doing to watch an episode of Giada's show. Not to say he wouldn't watch your show, but his love affair started before your show began. Now, he's hooked on her. I missed the first showing, but will set my DVR to record todays! Thanks for the heads up!
Wendy C. On Monday, November 19 at 12:07 pm
Amy – I do the same thing every time I say "pancetta".
Robin in SC On Monday, November 19 at 12:07 pm
My 19 year old son in also smitten with Giada. I am pretty sure it has nothing to do with the way she says "spaghetti", and everything to do with the fact that she is GORGEOUS. Loved the show!
Connell On Monday, November 19 at 8:19 am
LOVE the Animal House reference

I didn't know (or have missed) that Ree had family in TN. We are happy to have you here! I'd love to know what part. I'm in East TN but my husband's family is in middle TN.
I have DVR'd the show and haven't been able to watch it yet with having company over the weekend and cleaning up plus getting ready to leave for Thanksgiving.
Theresa in Alberta On Monday, November 19 at 8:21 am
You are a very mature, self confident real WOMAN. I am so glad you didnot get all "touchy feely" with the men and silly like some of the other females did after they had a sip or two of alcohol!!!!!!!!!!
jane On Saturday, November 24 at 9:51 pm
I agree!! Ree and Rachel were class acts…I was embarrassed for one of the other female chefs
Christina Davis On Monday, November 19 at 8:21 am
I'm glad that you said "Yo.". We would never have seen that picture of Bobby Flay otherwise! Love!
Stacy On Monday, November 19 at 4:43 pm
Absolutely and wholeheartedly agree!
Jillian On Saturday, November 24 at 10:28 am
I so love Bobby Flay!
Anna D On Monday, November 19 at 8:22 am
I'm in Tennessee too! Hello!
Char On Monday, November 19 at 8:22 am
Looks like you had a wonderful time. Sorry I couldn't see it. I LOVED the picture of Manhattan all lit up. Thanks for sharing.
Shelley @ Fort Worth Mama On Monday, November 19 at 8:22 am
You did great.
Melissa S On Monday, November 19 at 8:23 am
Love it! Thanks for sharing.
Connie White On Monday, November 19 at 8:23 am
I have the same exact napkins for Thanksgiving but just a different color! Yea! That means I picked well Also my hubby just got me your cookbook for my birthday- it is wonderful! Great job!
Julieann On Monday, November 19 at 8:23 am
Loved the post!!! Ree you are one of a kind. Food Network was smart to grab you…LOL….You are such a neat lady..Love your blog and your shows You Rock!
Happy Thanksgiving and Safe Travels!
Janet P On Monday, November 19 at 8:24 am
And how cool is it that Alton Brown said he tried one of your pie recipes and loved it! Enjoyed the show!
Susan A. On Monday, November 19 at 8:57 am
I thought the same thing! I was so proud!!!
Laura On Monday, November 19 at 8:39 pm
I thought the same thing! I just loved the show
Shelley @ Fort Worth Mama On Monday, November 19 at 8:24 am
You did great!
Gina M On Monday, November 19 at 8:25 am
You did great on the show. I enjoyed watching all the cooks. I guess Alton Brown takes some getting used to, but the cooking part was very informative!
Janet On Monday, November 19 at 1:51 pm
My thoughts exactly regarding Alton Brown….funny how Ree did not have a picture and comment of him!?!
Courtney On Tuesday, November 20 at 12:12 pm
No kidding! Bless his heart, he's a smart guy was NOT a good emcee for the show. Too much "um" and "uh". He needed a script!
REE was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amanda On Wednesday, November 21 at 11:07 pm
What about Alex? She never even mentions her!
AHSlunchlady On Monday, November 19 at 8:25 am
My kids call my mom Ga-Ga. Love to hear others use the same affectionate name for their grandmothers!
Emily @ Perfection Isn't Happy On Monday, November 19 at 8:25 am
I loved watching the show! It surprises me that Rachael Ray is soft spoken in person! I'm a naturally introverted person too, so it kind of makes me happy to hear that I'm not alone :).
Amy On Monday, November 19 at 8:25 am
You did great Ree and I loved having someone from Oklahoma on the show. I'm sure anyone new to The Food Network would be a bit intimidated in that situation. You didn't do anything that was embarrassing to this fellow Okie. You seem so sweet and friendly I feel like I could just drop by some time and visit. But I'm a social worker and realize that would be a bit creepy so don't worry.
Grace On Monday, November 19 at 8:26 am
I watched the show yesterday, and it was great. Looked like everyone was having fun, and all that food looked amazing! I think I'll watch it again today!
Susan in the Boonies On Monday, November 19 at 8:26 am
How I love thee, PeeWiddieDiddie, and how I love the Food Network folks.
I ADORED hearing the inside scoop.
I'm in the Boonies in TN, myself. Wave if you drive by!
Phyllis Jaco On Monday, November 19 at 8:26 am
Loved the show ! Loved everyone on it ! So fun ! Wish I could've joined you, because I am jelous. Love the group picture too !! So cool to find out Sunny was born here in OK !
Nancy Horn On Monday, November 19 at 8:26 am
Number One, stop saying terrible things about my friend! You were awesome, and confident, and smart. And not sweaty. Number Two, how great that you got to be there among the Food Network peeps! Number Three, I have a new weekly column for Gannett, which publishes Wednesdays in the Food & Drink Section.

I would LOVE to interview you sometime soon for our readers!!! Have a great Thanksgiving on the Ranch and God Bless You!!! much love, Nancy
Diane in Wisconsin On Monday, November 19 at 8:28 am
Enjoyed the show. Thanks for the post and photos. You looked "cool as a cucumber" on air.
Kelly Braughler On Monday, November 19 at 8:28 am
The show was great and you are lovely! You're one of the favorites on Food Network and your face is on The Food Network's homepage!!! I'm sure you'll get used to being on this path you have been led down. I appreciated that you were thankful for "faith and family". You are a wonderful example of a wife and a mom who shows that being a mommy is a high calling that has purpose and worth. I also homeschool and love to watch your show. So encouraging. My 3 year old comes to me daily and asked to watch the "cowgirl cookin' lady" I love that! God Bless You and Happy Thanksgiving!!!!
Rosemary On Monday, November 19 at 8:29 am
I missed this show. Darn it. I have to work today til 5 too so I will miss it again. *sigh* I love your behind the scenes look though. Thank you for sharing. On a side note, Bobby Flay looks very thin and frail. I hope he is o.k.?
Gretchen On Monday, November 19 at 8:29 am
You were wonderful. It was a great show to watch. I'm glad you did it!! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
Margie from New York On Monday, November 19 at 8:29 am
I see Alex Guarnaschelli was there, I love her on chopped. She also doing the Next Iron Chef.
Sue L. On Monday, November 19 at 9:25 am
I was wondering about Alex Guarnaschelli too… Ree didn't mention her in this post, but she seems like such a lovely person — I bet she is. I watched Food Network All Star Family Cookoff last night and Alex and her mom were competing…. one of the funniest/sweetest things I've ever seen!! They should have their own show — Alex's mom is hilarious!
M.M. On Tuesday, November 20 at 9:31 am
Alex seemed a little aloof on the episode. I particularly noticed it at the end of the program when Alton asked each chef what they were thankful for. Ree gave a lovely answer about health, family….. Alex followed with something about being thankful for her restaurants, because family comes in all different forms. I wonder if she's a little resentful of the non-professional foodnetwork chefs. Hmm….
Alicia On Wednesday, November 21 at 10:23 am
That's exactly the vibe I got too from that response about family. I'm hoping she was just tired, or something else happened right before the last segment and she hadn't recovered from it. I've liked Alex previously, but I find condescending attitudes about people who have succeeded doing things in a manner opposite from your own personal success to be a real turn off (as in, I will start turning the channel off to avoid it).
Carrie On Monday, November 19 at 8:30 am
I thought you did great and proved a Midwestern girl could hold her own against the peeps from the big city (though I'm sure they're very nice)!
Casey On Monday, November 19 at 8:30 am
I MISSED IT!. Dagnabbit…lived at the library all weekend..and sadly, I'm here right now…I graduate on the 15th…It will be worth it!
I am setting Tivo to capture you now!
dana On Monday, November 19 at 8:31 am
I enjoyed the show yesterday and totally agree with Theresa's comment. You were natural and down to earth. . .a great job by you, Ree!!
Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Kellie On Monday, November 19 at 8:32 am
The show was fun to watch! Learned a thing or two…give Gaga an extra hug…it is the hug I would give to mine if I could!
Chelsea On Monday, November 19 at 8:32 am
You're so cool. Who would have imagined that a rancher's wife would grow up to hobnob with Giada and Alton?
roxyfur On Monday, November 19 at 8:34 am
It was a fun show! You didn't come off as nervous at all. Of course you were the most fun to watch, like, "What is she going to say next?!?" … in a really good way. Happy Thanksgiving!!
Cheryl Barker On Monday, November 19 at 8:35 am
Ree, I'm glad you're a rebel! You keep things interesting!
Peggy On Monday, November 19 at 8:35 am
Why do I feel like I've known you forever? I want you to come to MY house so I can give you a break from all that cooking and tv pressure. You name it!
AMR On Monday, November 19 at 8:36 am
I was watching online and there was no sound but that did not sway me. Loved it and this report. You and your sister are super lovely.
Best wishes and Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, Andrea X
Tess in TN On Monday, November 19 at 8:37 am
My daughter and I enjoyed watching the live broadcast! Great job! Also, I agree with you on the colors for the table decor…a rebel with a cause! Enjoy your visit with your family in Tennessee. P.S. Maybe you can name one of the ranch horses "Mascar-pony"
Kaye from GA On Monday, November 19 at 8:37 am
Loved it!
SHeila On Monday, November 19 at 8:37 am
You did GREAT!! All of you did. Glad you had your sister for support. I all ways take my sis when I need back up
Melissa On Monday, November 19 at 8:37 am
Loved the show. How fun were Alton and Giada. I have watched Food Network for literally a decade now. RR, Bobby, Giada! They literally taught me how to cook. But with Mrs. Ree, you have truly felt like watching my best friend. Thank you for sharing your experience with us as a best girlfriend would! It's why we keep coming back.
Kelly Gray On Monday, November 19 at 8:39 am
I love to think about you being there and doing all those things. I am so happy to see you meeting all those people and enjoying life. It's amazing to think everybody is really just somebody. They all seemed famous to you and you seem famous to us. I think I'll start to thinking since down inside we're all really just somebodys the opposite is also true. Down inside we're really all famous sombodys. Thanks for all the joy you bring!
Karla On Monday, November 19 at 8:40 am
Enjoyed the show very much. You seemed the same Ree to me that I watch on Pioneer Woman. A breath of fresh air, delicious home cooked food, & keeping it real in life! Have a Blessed Thanksgiving!
Amy On Monday, November 19 at 8:40 am
Glad you said Giada was nice to you, because there were a couple times when it did not appear to be the case… and I was dissappointed for you. Looked like you all had a good time though!!! I think Aaron' and Sunny would be a hoot together!!
Kari S. On Monday, November 19 at 9:57 am
Amy…….I thought the same thing! I even rewound and watched parts again where Giada seemed a bit stand-off-ish to Ree. I kind of lost a bit of respect for Giada after that. At least Giada wasn't "all over" Bobby…….sarcasm folks!!!
Yolie R. On Monday, November 19 at 8:42 am
That show was great! I wish Alton would of taken more time with each cook. He was all over the place..it looked like tons of fun the joking around and the drinks!! Whoohoo!!
Amy H On Monday, November 19 at 8:42 am
Thanks for sharing the inside scoop on these things – so fun!
LeeNJ On Monday, November 19 at 8:43 am
That parting shot of Manhattan is to DIE FOR!!! What a capstone! Happy Thanksgiving.
Puna On Monday, November 19 at 8:44 am
I really enjoyed this post! Looks like fantastic fun!
Emily On Monday, November 19 at 8:46 am
Even though I've never met you, either, I feel like you're a real human being, while Bobby, Giada, Alton, etc, are super-human TV personalities. I feel like I got to meet them, through your eyes, and that a real, normal human beings was hanging out with gods for the afternoon!
It was a lot of fun to watch!
Marianne E On Monday, November 19 at 6:31 pm
I agree, Emily. You said it perfectly. I feel like I live vicariously through you, dear PW. And I can totally relate to all your insecurities, which is probably why we all keep tuning in, come to think of it. Thanks for taking us along the wild ride.
Anna @ Crunchy Creamy Sweet On Monday, November 19 at 8:46 am
Thank you so much for the photos, Ree! It's always so fun to see the behind-the-scenes! The show was fabulous and you did an amazing job! Thank you for staying real!
Kari On Monday, November 19 at 8:46 am
Loved the show you were great and looked very composed and cool.
Nikki B On Monday, November 19 at 8:47 am
Looks like you had such an awesome time! I was sad I missed it (even forgot to set the DVR… booo!), we were out for soccer and birthday parties all day…but then I was happy again when I saw your re-airing note! Off to set the DVR!
Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate!
LisaB On Monday, November 19 at 8:48 am
Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Ree. I envy the fact that you were in the same room as Bobby Flay, Rachael Ray and Giada! You lucky girl, you!!!
T On Monday, November 19 at 8:48 am
Thanks so much Ree, for giving us behind the scenes, ummm, scenes. That is so cool to see my fav's acting real. I can only imagine the smells in that wonderful super sized kitchen.
Leeannec On Monday, November 19 at 8:48 am
All my fav chefs were on this show, you especially! Maybe some of them were a little tipsy and couldn't stop talking, so they couldn't get to you as much… LOL! Just sayin! I do like the fact we have your show and blog to come to for our Ree fix. Love the humor, food, and family fun you exude daily! Keep up the great work!
Jody On Monday, November 19 at 8:49 am
You rocked that show and I LOVED the top you were wearing!
Mo On Monday, November 19 at 8:50 am
I enjoyed that show. It was so great to see everyone so casual & having a wonderful time. I hope they can do more shows like that! That food looked just delicious.
Have a great thanksgiving with your family!
Susan Mars On Monday, November 19 at 8:53 am
My husband and I watched the show while drinking Bloody Mary's and planning our Thanksgiving menu. We had a blast watching and actually got some good tips. BTW, we are from Oklahoma as well, Lake Eufaula. Happy Thanksgiving
Sharlene On Monday, November 19 at 8:54 am
completely off topic—I love your shot of Manhattan from the plane–totally awesome!
Tina On Monday, November 19 at 8:56 am
You were AWESOOOOOME! Love it. Having you there was like having one of us regular folks hanging out with the stars. Thanks so much for representing in such a great way. It was a great show loved the banter. Thanks for the behind the scenes look also.
Paula P. On Monday, November 19 at 8:57 am
Ree, you did a fantastic job yesterday and I saw you wave to us as promised… thank you! Everyone was so laid back and funny.. When you and Aaron were in the stuffing throwdown, I laughed out loud at Bobby. He was standing next to Alton when Alton was reminding people to tweet for your cornbread stuffing (Bobby nodded) or to vote for Aaron's cornbread and Chorizo stuffing (Bobby shook his head no). It seems being impartial is not his strong suit when it comes to cornbread stuffing!
Even the aftershow online was funny. Should we start calling you Ms. Switzerland now like Alton did?! I hope you get to do it again next year!
Darlene Carter On Monday, November 19 at 8:57 am
Love your show and you were great on Thanksgiving Live. You are so genuine and your Thankfulness was top of the line. Family, Friends, Faith and Love. Just don't get no better. Wishing you and your family a wonderful Holiday season. God Bless!
Margie L. On Monday, November 19 at 8:57 am
It was so great watching the show. I saw that you were taking pictures and hoped "I bet she posts them!" I really like the segment about table decorations and how you were able to use your favorite Fiestaware. It looked like you were setting up a table at the ranch like you do for your shows. Your candid shots make the show seem more in touch with what people really do and cook for the holidays. Thanks for sharing them.
The List Maker On Monday, November 19 at 8:59 am
I realize full well we will probably never meet but want to tell you – you are awesome! You are so down-to-earth and fun! I love that you got to be on Thanksgiving Live and as I watched all I could think was, "There's Pioneer Woman!!" Glad you got to have that experience:)
CateS On Monday, November 19 at 8:59 am
It was such a fun show to watch!!! You looked calm, cool and collected!! Fun to know that you're going to be on Iron Chef!!! Hope Betsy got some of the food!!
Anele @ Success Along the Weigh On Monday, November 19 at 9:00 am
I had to tape it since I was doing a cake ball class but it was a good show. A little inside jokish and weird at times with some of them. You can definitely tell the ones that hang out together or have done shows together. Based on some of the comments and relentless teasing, seems like there are some interesting stories to be told that aren't for public consumption!
Darcie (My Modern Country) On Monday, November 19 at 9:03 am
Saw it. Loved it. I even waived at you from Twitter.
Oh, I got your message about Betsy, and FYI….I'm not above using bribery
Terry in Divide On Monday, November 19 at 9:03 am
I really enjoyed the show. Hubster kept asking what I was laughing at–it sure looked like you all had a great time. When Aaron said he was thankful for his kids, and (I forgot who) asked him if he knew how many, I was glad I wasn't drinking anything.
Now, I have to figure out how to do Thanksgiving at 9100 feet. Nothing cooks the same. Since living in Colorado, we've had Thanksgiving at one of our kids' homes, and they live at a slightly more reasonable altitude. If anyone else here has tips, I'd love to hear them.
Nana On Monday, November 19 at 9:03 am
Ree, I always enjoy the Thanksgiving Live programs, but it was nice to see you. Being the new kid on the show, you were not nearly as "on" as the more experienced personalities there, so you came off as more polite and reserved. Understandable, given your first time on a frenetic live show. Bravo on your natural performance. I plan to try your bacon-cheese appetizers, too.
At the risk of incurring your fellow fans wrath, I have to comment on one thing, though. In an eariler post, you lamented about your thinning hair. Oh, how I sympathize with you, but mine is forever thin. Your damage will eventually grow out. Your hair looked quite thin yesterday. I have two suggestions for you: wear it up oftener-at least on camera-and go out and buy some AVEDA Pure Abundance Style Prep. It is a tiny spray bottle of an outrageously expensive ($24) product, but you spritz it on and lightly blow-dry. It conditions and protects, but the volume it gives one's hair is amazing! I have a whole different head of hair when I use it. And it leaves it soft and smelling divine.
Please do not take offense, as I am a fan. I just want to help. Bravo on your Sunday performance, and have a wonderful Thanksgivng. I know it will be a delicious one at your house.
Carmen Brandes On Monday, November 19 at 9:04 am
Ree, you looked and were wonderfully authentic. I enjoy all of the network chefs, but wish they weren't so celebrity like. Just keep it real!
sharon holweger On Monday, November 19 at 9:05 am
Watched the show it was great. I dont cook thanksgiving any more but learned a lot of great tips. your pictures are great. loved the one from the air too
Tammy L. On Monday, November 19 at 9:06 am
Happy Thanksgiving Ree!!!
Susan A. On Monday, November 19 at 9:06 am
I DVRed and watched the show last night. It was so fun! And you did great, of course. I got a kick out of Alton, am now IN LOVE with Bobby Flay, and loved seeing the rest of you. Rachel did seem a bit subdued even on the live show, which was nice for a change ; ). Giada was a bit overly giddy, and she didn't even drink! But I do still love her. I've never watch Sunny before. I think I will now…she seemed cool. YOU, of course, were beautiful and smiley and not sweaty at all. I loved the Facebook section when you got to answer questions, and I felt excited and nervous for you all at the same time. Hope you do it again next year! Great job and Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Carol Bees On Tuesday, November 20 at 2:24 pm
Susan A. you will love Sunny, I have taped her for years, I go back and forth with different people, but she is a lot like Ree – she is down to earth, easy peasy when it comes to recipe's and good down home cooking. She has been all over being an Army brat so she loves different types of food. give her a try.
Donna J. On Monday, November 19 at 9:07 am
Loved the photos, comments and YES Bobby & Giada my all time favs!!
The show couldn't help but be really great with an all star cooking cast!
Annie Ruth On Monday, November 19 at 9:07 am
Ree you were wonderful!!!! Your smile always lights up a room. I always enjoy the Thanksgiving show and this one was a lot of fun. I recorded it so I can watch it over and over. Hope you and your family have a great Thanksgiving!!!!
dolores dew On Monday, November 19 at 9:08 am
I loved the show! you were wonderful and I loved your blouse! I hope Food Network plans on doing the same thing for Christmas.
Susan Cooper On Monday, November 19 at 9:08 am
I saw the show and you were totally awesome. I love the pictures. I am so glad you took them and shared them with us. You rock!!!
Lynn F. On Monday, November 19 at 9:09 am
I enjoyed the show. Kind of set the holiday mood. Looking forward to turkey day. Hope you have a nice holiday.
Trish Reynolds On Monday, November 19 at 9:10 am
Loved the show! You did a great job! The only time I could tell you were nervous was when you kept stroking your hair back behind your ears. You are just as much a part of the Foodnetwork family as the others, so kick back and enjoy yourself! You have a great show, and I never miss it. Very down to earth recipes that anyone can fix and enjoy!
Krista On Monday, November 19 at 9:11 am
What great pics and behind the scenes look at the Live show. I was watching along yesterday and it looked like it was such a fun time had by all. Happy Thanksgiving!
Andrea On Monday, November 19 at 9:11 am
You were amazing!! You fit right in with all those celeberties!! Wow. Loved the show.
leisha On Monday, November 19 at 9:13 am
I will watch the show today but are all the lights, etc. back on in NYC? It surely looks like it from the airplane shot. I hope so!!
Kay Shepard On Monday, November 19 at 9:13 am
The show was great! Happy Thanksgiving!
Candice On Monday, November 19 at 9:14 am
Hm, no comments about how Alton Brown is?? That makes me wonder… I imagine he's quite intimidating and would love to hear what your impression was.
Shannon E On Monday, November 19 at 9:57 am
I was thinking the same thing….
Christi On Monday, November 19 at 1:23 pm
I was wondering the same thing! I love Alton Brown, but I wonder if he's not very "type-A" in real life?
BSJ On Monday, November 19 at 5:57 pm
I thought Alton Brown was totally annoying as host of Thanksgiving Live. And I used to like him on Good Eats! Of course Ree is too polite to say anything bad about him, but I found him to be rude and off-putting on the show!
Peggy Anderson On Monday, November 19 at 7:10 pm
Yes, I was thinking that, too.
He's full of energy!
Boogiesmama On Monday, November 19 at 7:23 pm
Oh I love Alton! I think he has a quirky/sarcastic sense of humor that might not translate as funny to all…I think he is a riot & love his vast knowledge of all the technical "stuff" (if he wasn't in food he would have to be in the sciences!) Type "A" or not he's my type of guy ; )
Texan and grandma On Monday, November 19 at 9:28 pm
The first time I watched the show I wondered about the subway/pickup comment even though Ree handled it well.
The second time I watched it I realized that he was actually very respectful of her during the conversation about the pie crust to the point of even saying that he has made one of her pie recipes and thought it was good. (I did see a previous comment from a poster that there was an audible oooOOoo and listened and heard it. It would be interesting to know if that came from the other celebrity chefs or from the support crew.) Plus he did mention her vast number(?) or legion(?) of internet fans, and that was when she called us all "homies" and waved hello.
So, the second time I watched it I had a different feeling than I did the first time. Regardless, I hope she was happy with the whole day, and I thought she more than held her own for her first time in a situation like that.

SCRANTON — It's a time old tradition here in Scranton.
Thousands of folks pack the streets of the Electric City to enjoy the 20th Greater Scranton Jaycees Santa Parade.
Kids donned their holiday attire and waited patiently for their favorite float to go by.
This year there was Madeline, Elmo, and some cheerleaders in the sky.
Kids who sat by and watched said they loved it all.
"The floats and how they had that candy train house," said Julian Hubbard.
"When the girls were dancing hip hop!" said Derrick Hernandez.
Others said they loved the animals.
Kids came dressed in there Christmas attire. One little guy, dressed as Rudolph the red nose reindeer, showed he was ready for the holiday season.
Others said they loved the donkeys walking through.
"We love it! (My boy) is excited and we're having a very good time!" said a parade goer.
This is the 20th Santa parade, some folks who have been coming here since the 1990's said this year is a little bit different.
"There's a lot more people here this year, it's great," said an on-looker.
And for many, the music helps them get into the holiday spirit, along with seeing the big guy in the red suit and Mrs. Claus!
Parents said the parade helps kick off the Christmas season with a bang.
"It's great the kids love it, and it's a lot of fun for everybody," said John Zelenski, of Scranton.

Major Development status granted for Cape Hardy Deep Sea Port
The proposed multi-billion dollar deep sea port development at Cape Hardy by Iron Road Limited has been declared a Major Development.
The deep sea port and associated infrastructure, which includes a 150 kilometre rail line, would service significant iron ore deposits located over land south of Wudinna on the Eyre Peninsula.
Minister for Planning John Rau said the declaration of the project is recognition of the major environmental, social and economic importance to the State.
"The Major Development process allows a wide and in depth consideration of the implications of proposals, including public consultation," Mr Rau said.
"It is the most extensive development assessment process in South Australia and is recognised by the Commonwealth under its environmental protection and biodiversity conservation law."
The proposed development at Cape Hardy comprises three interrelated components, including:
- A deep sea water port, which is located some 7 kilometres south of Port Neill. The port, able to load various bulk size carriers including Capesize vessels, would be capable of exporting 30 Million tonnes of iron ore, or other products, per annum.
- A 150 kilometre long infrastructure corridor, comprising a power transmission line, sea water supply pipeline and standard gauge rail line, to enable the transfer of product from the mine site to the port.
- A workers accommodation village, designed to accommodate the longer term operational workforce for the mine and infrastructure components and capable of accommodating some 550 personnel, to be constructed within the township of Wudinna.
Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy Tom Koutsantonis said the proposed development would be a catalyst for other mining aspirants who collectively have the capacity to provide a transformational shift in mining exploration and extraction.
"This project will inspire others to explore mining possibilities within the Eyre Peninsula, creating the potential for much broader economic benefits," Mr Koutsantonis said.
"In addition to the 1,000 people required for the mine's construction, this proposed development will also require a construction workforce of some 600 people and an operational workforce of around 100.
"The capital spend and provision of direct employment opportunities would provide a solid basis for supporting jobs growth in the region."

Side-by-side migration to SEP from SAVCE 10
Created: 26 Dec 2007 • Updated: 21 May 2010 | 3 comments
Is it possible to install SEP 11.0, as a separate instance, on a server that's currently running as a SAVCE 10.1 parent server? I would like to run them both side-by-side for a bit while I migrate my clients over to SEP.
Comments 3 Comments • Jump to latest comment
We have them running on same machine. However, you cannot install the SEP (client) program on the primary server for SAV CE. You will have to run the SEP server and SEPM management console without the client program installed. If you try to install the SEP client, it will tell you it can't be installed on the machine until SSC is removed.
---------------- Things turn out best for the people who make the best of the way things turn out. -John Wooden-
That would be my suggestion. I hope the MR1 release is a spectacular improvement - there's plenty of room for it. The Migration Wizard failed miserably here, and 3 hours with a Symantec support tech., didn't fix that. We have had to deploy manually, but have encountered one problem after another, including no luck at all trying to get a mirror server set up. Can't even get machines to respond to a ping without disabling SEP first - and that is with ICMP fully enabled in the firewall, and port 7 open (TCP and UDP).
The product may be incredibly powerful, if you can get it installed and set up, but it is so dependent on so many "external" technologies (IIS, PHP, SQL, etc.), that it seems to be a real "crap shot" (odds are against you) as to whether it can be installed without having to dismantle, remove, or hack/modify other software to get SEP/SEPM to work (and probably should pray that nothing needs to change later, on the machine, that might break SEP/SEPM). To make matters worse, the SEP uninstall doesn't work well either - have to use a 7 page manual process, on each machine, to complete a removal (i.e., hack the registry by hand). Good luck. ;0)

Harlow named chair of mechanical engineering and mechanics
D. Gary Harlow
D. Gary Harlow, a renowned scholar of fracture mechanics and applied probability, has been named chair of the department of mechanical engineering and mechanics.
Harlow, a professor of mechanical engineering and mechanics, joined Lehigh's faculty in 1982. His appointment as chair, which took effect July 1, was announced by S. David Wu, Iacocca Professor and Dean of the P.C. Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science. Harlow succeeds Herman Nied, professor of mechanical engineering and mechanics, who had served as department chair since 2002.
"Gary has a thoughtful vision for the future of his department," said Wu. "His vision will complement and help strengthen the future of the engineering college and Lehigh."
Harlow is the author of more than 70 refereed journal articles, and is a recipient of a research fellowship from the National Research Council. He has received several top teaching awards, including Teacher of the Year from Lehigh's chapter of Tau Beta Pi, the national engineering honorary society, and Professor of the Year from Lehigh's chapter of Pi Tau Sigma, the international mechanical engineering honor society.
In his research, Harlow has addressed such topics as the modeling of failure processes in aluminum alloys, steels, and composite materials under various loading conditions. Recently he has been involved extensively in the reliability and life extension of structural components of aging aircraft. He has also applied probability, statistics, and stochastic processes modeling to other engineering problems, including mechanical and system reliability.
Harlow holds a B.A. from Western Kentucky University, an M.S. in applied mathematics from Cornell University, and a Ph.D. in applied probability and stochastic processes, also from Cornell.
Wu commended Nied for his "excellent service" as department chair.

Step 1: Tools and Materials
- Soldering iron
- Wire strippers
- Drill and 3/8" bit
- 1/2" wrench
- 1/4" guitar jack
- Solder
Step 2: Disassemble
Most of these mics just screw together to allow for the occasional cleaning. Twist the top off and pull out the microphone-holding center piece. Cut the wires as long as you can so that there is enough slack that the wires don't break when the microphone is screwed back together. If there isn't enough you may need to extend them a few inches.
Step 3: Drilling The Top
Once the hole is drilled, apply some tape around the inside, on the top of the mesh, and beneath. Its likely that if the guitar jack makes electrical contact with the housing of the mic, it won't work properly. I had this problem and I solved it with tape.
Step 4: Wire the Jack
Step 5: Re-assembly
Screw the head of the mic back onto the body. Plug it in and test it out!
In short, it can be done, but with a wireless transmitter the volume may be too low. I have plugged my guitar into my PC mic port before and it works, but the sound quality is very bad and the volume and microphone boost must be maxed out to hear anything.
The reason this particular hack works is because this wireless microphone used a simple condensor microphone and not an electret, so the signal levels from the condenser and the guitar were of similar power.
Hi, pretty awesome hack! Do you think it could work with low frequencies from a bass guitar?
Should be fine. It might be filtered to minimize frequencies at 60Hz and below though.
Ok! Hope to test it asap and I'll let you know, thanks!
could you put a resistor in series with the jack so that you could turn up your guitar without the signal distorting? Also, is a dynamic microphone an electret or a condenser?
These problems can be solved with a small transistor amplifier circuit.
Also you would need a driver for your PC to be able to use the guitar hero mic on it.
i like it!
thanks for sharing!
Also that would require modifying the receiver so now you would need 2 receivers for 4 mics.

A Roll of the Dice
The fate of the Greenbrier, the financially troubled West Virginia resort with a rich golf history, will be known soon. Gambling could be part of the mix
Harold Bock was born and raised in West Virginia. "As a kid in this state, the first thing you learn about is the Mountaineers and their sports teams," says Bock. "The next thing you learn about is Sam Snead and the Greenbrier. It's an institution."
That's not an exaggeration. The Greenbrier, a hotel in White Sulphur Springs and a national landmark, has been a vacation getaway for society's elite since 1778.
The Greenbrier's place in history is safe, but its future is in doubt.
Certainly, the turbulent U.S. economy has not helped the Greenbrier's situation. But the root of the resort's problems is a labor dispute. Bock is the spokesperson for the Greenbrier's nine labor unions, which are currently embroiled in a 14-month negotiation with resort management for a new collective-bargaining agreement.
Last month, the Greenbrier's parent company, CSX (whose main business is owning and operating more than 21,000 miles of rail services in the eastern half of the United States), revealed the resort had lost $35 million in 2008. CSX (the railroad company and its predecessor, C&O, have owned the resort since 1910) said it had hired the banking and investment firm Goldman Sachs to do a complete analysis of the resort and deliver what is being referred to, ominously, as "a review."
Gary Sease, a CSX spokesman, does not deny the possibility that the Greenbrier could be forced to shut down. "All options are on the table," said Sease. "We'll see what Goldman Sachs has to say and go from there."
The Greenbrier, by anyone's definition, is one of golf's most all-inclusive resorts. It has 700 rooms, cottages and suites and offers guests 50 resort activities, including a 40,000-square-foot spa, off-road driver's training, falconry and three championship golf courses. (The Greenbrier course, built by Seth Raynor in 1924 and redesigned by Jack Nicklaus in 1977, hosted the 1979 Ryder Cup and 1994 Solheim Cup.) It also has "the bunker," a celebrated bomb shelter designed to house and protect Congress in case of national emergency, a relic of the Cold War era.
Its golf pedigree includes Snead. In 1936, when Snead was 24, he joined the resort as an assistant pro. At his death 66 years later, he was the Greenbrier's pro emeritus. He was succeeded in that role by Tom Watson, who has been vacationing with his family at the resort for years. "There's an elegance and a formality in this informal age that I particularly like," said Watson.
The Greenbrier has been losing money for several years, but in November 2007, when management told the unions it would be cutting back on health insurance for seasonal employees, a bad financial situation got worse. When the two sides couldn't agree on a new contract, the unions (responsible for about 1,200 of the 1,300 total employees) threatened to strike."The loss of 650 jobs anywhere in West Virginia is a big deal. I would compare it to 20,000 jobs in New York City." —Butch Antolini
Management felt obligated to send the resort's best guests a letter, explaining that its employees were not under contract and that service could be affected. As a result, there was confusion, cancellations—and, says the resort, millions of dollars in lost revenue.
"Groups are a big part of our business," said Greenbrier spokesman Lynn Swann. "Our goal is to keep them as long-term guests. If they showed up and we couldn't give them the level of service they've grown accustomed to, that would be a bigger problem." Management and labor have since signed and subsequently extended a no-strike, no-lockout agreement that is in effect through Jan. 4, 2010.
The Greenbrier isn't the only premier golf resort with labor challenges. Last summer, Sea Island Resort in Georgia let 500 "mostly seasonal" employees go, and asked some of the staff who stayed on to take a pay cut. But the Greenbrier topped that by laying off 650 employees—about half its workforce—Jan. 9. Resort officials say they typically furlough seasonal employees during their off-peak season. But the number of layoffs this year was unusually high (150-200 more than in years past), and there is no guarantee everyone let go will be re-hired in the spring.
"[The Greenbrier] is a major employer in the region," said Butch Antolini, a local newspaper editor who covers the resort. "The loss of 650 jobs anywhere in West Virginia is a big deal. I would compare it to 20,000 jobs in New York City."
Sorting out the labor situation would help the Greenbrier's future. But so would raising revenue. To that end, there has been a controversial effort to add one more amenity to the resort: gambling. In November, Greenbrier County residents approved a referendum to legalize table gaming at the Greenbrier. Research suggests its effects would be significant: A study by West Virginia University in 2000 concluded that table gambling could add $34 million annually to the Greenbrier's coffers; another study currently being conducted estimates the total could be more like $50 million per year.
