"I did not have three thousand pairs of shoes, I had one thousand and sixty." – Imelda Marcos
-- Two completely unrelated and most precious friends gave me the plaque and the coffee cup you see in the picture above Both Items read: Life is Short Buy the Shoes. They know me pretty well. Shoes are one of my passions. They don't have to be expensive, that don't have to be designer-labeled, they don't even have to be faddish or popular, they just have to be special.
Here are my criteria – they have to look good on my feet, that's where I tend to wear them most of the time. They have to make me happy. They cannot hurt to walk in. And if I can find them at a deep discount, I'm in heaven!
The genesis of most passions (some would obsessions) can usually be traced to childhood. I surmise mine stems from the wretched pair of Robin's Egg Blue (#29 in the big box of Crayola® crayons) patent leather, half inch, Mary Janes I wore on the first day of school in the Second Grade. They were hideous. Oh, the kids on the playground had a field day with those. Even worse? From the cavernous recesses of my mind I think I may have picked them out. Aaaack! It's easier to blame my mother.
Anyway, I think that was ground zero, both in my abysmal taste and my determination to have pretty shoes for the rest of my life. So far I have. My greatest regret is I didn't realize early on there were professional shoe repair-ers and I got rid of my ecru-linen pumps. I still mourn them.
Over time my taste has improved and my passion and collection has grown to challenge closets and spousal units. So, be it. I'm not addicted. I can pass a shoe store and not go in. I can peruse a catalog and still not buy. And while a strappy, glass-heeled slipper can still make my mouth water, I'm not ready for rehab yet.
As far as I know, my guilty pleasure doesn't harm me, offend others, or impact my carbon footprints, and the one's I leave behind will be gorgeous – with a three inch heel.

"If we are to achieve results never before accomplished, we must expect to employ methods never before attempted." – Sir Francis Bacon
-- I spent a lot of time this weekend combing through magazines like Shape, Fitness, and Prevention looking for interesting exercise ideas. Part of my sassy, bon vivant, and effervescent personality is my penchant for seeking out new and different things. Translation: I bore easily.
Lately, just trudge, trudge, trudging on the treadmill or even around my neighborhood has, become (yawn) pretty routine and downright dull. Funny, that tedium/boredom coincides with my body's rather abject refusal to lose one more pound or give up one more inch. Arrrgh! The scales won't budge and the measuring tape won't either. While I take some comfort that neither one is increasing, I need to see some progress. It's what spurs me on.
According to everything I read (I know, I might see more results if I moved more and read less) body's get bored too – they need a change every once in a while. So this week I'm giving the recumbent bike a shot. And I've added some ankle weights to my leg lifts. I must be doing something right because now I have aches and pains in all sorts of new and different places. Progress!
I guess the moral of the story is if something's not working for you maybe it's time to rethink our methods, change things up. Hmmm… perhaps that applies to more than just exercise, you think?
Soldier on!

Keeping a Low Profile...

I was thinking yesterday, "I really need some time at the beach." Ever feel like that? Like you just want to get away somewhere, off by yourself, away from middle-east unrest, soaring gas prices, the latest updates on the meltdown of Charlie Sheen…
Personally, I find reality decidedly overrated. Call me an ostrich, but every once in a while a good round of head-burying is in order. Bring on the sand! Having enjoyed the beaches of Southern California, Mexico, and the Caribbean, I can attest they make ideal reality-avoidance centers.
Yep, those ostriches have the right idea. Hide out. Although, some say they don't really hide in the sand. According to Roman writer Pliny the Elder when ostriches want to avoid their problems, i.e. predators, they hide in the bushes. My luck, there'd be chiggers.
Nowadays, researchers say the flightless birds don't hide at all, in bushes or sand. Instead, they
lie on the ground to make themselves inconspicuous
. Tee-hee! I LOVE it!
Yep, that's what I need to do… find some sand, some surf, stretch out, close my eyes, and get really, really, inconspicuous…
Soldier on!

"If a man loses pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured, or far away." – Henry David Thoreau
One of the unsung heroes in my life is Vicki Robertson – a high school friend of mine who was even shorter than I was which meant that in Drill Team she always stood a little in front of or right beside me. Whenever I forgot a move or lost my place or panicked, I could look to Vicki and catch up. The only reason the Fullerton Indians stayed in formation is I wasn't just a few inches taller.
See it wasn't so much that I was marching to a different drummer, I just couldn't seem to keep up with the ones I heard. I was thinking how blessed I've been to always have a Vicki in my life. Someone who does something really well, sets a good example, and doesn't mind showing others exactly how it's done.
Having majored in Trial and Error and degreed in Hit or Miss, I appreciate it when life sends along a shortcut – gives me a model, shows me the way. I've always said I may not be a great cook but I can follow a recipe. A friend tells me I'm "coachable". Maybe. But if I am it's only because I've had the pleasure of working with some super benovelent and dynamite coaches.
We always take for granted the things the come easily for us. The talents and skills that are effortless. But to someone struggling to keep up? Those talents are golden!
Who might you coach today?

"Slow down, you move too fast.
You got to make the morning last.
Just kicking down the cobblestones.
Looking for fun and feelin' groovy" – Paul Simon
Something very, very unusual happened this morning. Rex the puppy woke me up at 5:00 a.m. No, that's not unusual, that's a given. I haven't set an alarm since his arrival in my life six months ago – no, what was unusual is he woke up, uh, calm.
Normally, the first thing he does when I let him out of his crate is bound up on the bed and start to, for lack of a better word, wrestle. He's forty pounds of solid muscle and energy is his long suit. I virtually have to tackle him to get his leash on him and this has become one of his favorite games – prolonging me from completing this task for as long as possible. We call the game "Bedroom Football."
I don't know all the correct terms for ordinary football but our morning ritual always includes "unnecessary roughness" and "flag on the play." Rex calls all the plays and has mastered the hurry up offense.
But this morning, for some inexplicable reason, he layed down beside me, licked my hand and went to sleep. Long enough for me to sing him most of Simon and Garfunkle's 59th Street Bridge Song. And long enough for me to remember that sometimes we move too fast. In less than a minute he was up and at 'em again, a tour de force of hungry puppy power. Moment over.
As I fed him his doggie breakfast I thought how quickly that magical connnection passed. The good ones usually do. And I was reminded that when it comes to those great bonding moments – with your dog, your mate, or your very best friend, we need to make the morning – and the moment – last.
Soldier on!

Do it 14 Times Every Day. At Least!

For the first time, researchers have found that laughter causes the endothelium, the inner lining of blood vessels, to dilate. This increases blood flow which, of course, is good for overall cardiovascular health.The message is clear, and economical. "I think it would be reasonable for everybody to loosen up, and spend about 15 to 20 minutes a day laughing," said lead researcher Dr. Michael Miller, M.D. Director of Preventive Cardiology at the University of Maryland Medical Center.
Apparently the good Doctor and a lot of other brainiacs have documented what little kids have always known – life is pretty funny stuff, funny stuff makes you laugh, and laughing is a lot of fun! And kids do it constantly – about 300 times a day. And then we grow up. And then we mature. And then we stop – if not altogether, we slow down to an average rate of about fourteen laughs a day.
I was reminded yesterday how important it is to laugh at least fourteen times a day. It's good for you physically, psychologically, emotionally. All sorts of studies have proven that laughter heals. Stuff way over my head about T-cells, cellular repair and regeneration. I DO get the bottom line: Giggling is good stuff.
One of my dearest friends on this planet or any other has been battling cancer since Christmas. His daughter emails us almost every night with a progress report. I am always moved when the report includes comments like: "Per usual, Dad had all the Doctors and nurses laughing…" His own laughter is healing him. And with his humor, he is healing us.
The only thing I can think of better than laughing fourteen times a day? Making fourteen other people laugh. So thank you, all you precious people in my life that make my cheeks hurt and my stomach ache from giggling. Bless you. And, keep up the good work!
Soldier on!!

A poltergeist is a phenomenon in which disorder occurs without explainable cause, usually indoors and in the presence of people. Such disorder typically includes inanimate objects. – Wikipedia
I am not the best at keeping track of my things. My Dad used to call it my lack of discipline. As I've matured I've dismissed that. I don't lack discipline; I have a problem with possessions of mine wandering off from where I placed them.
This morning it was the cap to my favorite purple Uniball® rolling writer fine point pen. The ink flows nicely. I think it has magical properties. My point is, one would expect to find the cap somehow attached to the body of the instrument. Not the case. It disappeared.
To give you an example of how long this phenomenon has plagued me, years ago when I left a former employer, my boss presented me with a cigar box filled with, you guessed it, a couple of dozen felt tip company pen
. Now why the ghosts would have spirited away all of those caps from where I put them to one cigar box, I'll never know. Maybe it was spectral convention time
It just goes to prove my theory that some folks are not disorganized, they just have unseen perturbers that like nothing better than to distract people like me from their intended activities. It this instance the matter was complicated by my own principal of scarcity.
See, the less there is of something the more important it is for me to find it. In this instance, I only have one purple Uniball® and this particular pen is like a wolf; it only has one mate. I've tried every cap to every pen in this place to find a surrogate, none of them fit. I'm expecting a pumpkin and some white field mice at any moment.
So if you stop by and see my favorite pen ensconced in aluminum foil, just never mind. I don't want the ink to dry out. And, everyone knows aluminum foil wards off aliens.
So, Soldier on.

"…she is velcroed to him and won't leave his side."
I love words. All of them. Big ones, short ones, easy and impossible to pronounce ones. And I love most of all when I find them used in exceptional ways. The pause and catch your breath ways.
A friend of mine used the expression above in reference to her parents. They've been battling lymphoma. It's hard to say whether he has been the most valiant, or his bride of fifty plus years. But they've been tackling this event like every other one in their joint life experience, as one.
He's on his fourth round of chemotherapy in a marathon that began at Christmas. He went from "Uh-oh" to Diagnosis to Treatment like a high performance vehicle – super, super fast. And his utterly devoted companion of some time has been with him every moment.
I haven't been able to express how touching it has been, seeing the two of them together, even before this medical monster entered their existence.
With the shared history that only good wolves have that mate for life, they are the completers of each other's sentences, the keepers of each other's secrets, "getters" of each other's jokes, and co-conspirators in the mystery of life.
As difficult as this adversity has been, how awesome it must be when you can go through it in lock-step with the hooks to your loops.
Inseparable. Velcroed. Blessed.

Where Are Your Beads? It's Mardi Gras!

Mardi Gras
is French for "Fat Tuesday" (in ethnic English tradition, Shrove Tuesday), referring to the practice of the last night of eating richer, fatty foods before the ritual fasting of the Lenten season, which begins on Ash Wednesday – Wikipedia
Whoops! I thought every day was Mardi Gras!
Truth be told, I've had my share of celebratory feasting. Bring on the rich, fatty foods! There is just something about the whole philosophy "tomorrow we'll get real serious but today let's play" that's resonated with me since the crib.
In college I was the notorious instigator of late night forrays to the pizza parlor or pie shop. (Or both!) I was wickedly persuasive, convincing my dorm mates that we could always study extra hard tomorrow, and that the "moment", the very one we were in, was the ideal moment to play, maybe the last one we'd have for a while!
Those that know me well know I can be as serious as the next fellow. In fact I'd say I have somber, reflective and pensive down to an art form. But more and more I am convinced the evidence is compelling. If we look around and really take in all of the gifts we've been given – the sights, the sounds, the abundance, and the chance to love and be loved?
Man, we should be dancing in the streets!
Where are your beads?

So Much To Do!!

"Out of the strain of the doing, into the peace of the done" -- Julia Louis Woodruff
I've been thinking a lot about to do lists. A friend of mine recently told me her greatest satisfaction came from creating a to do list each day and then crossing off each item as it was completed -- gave her a "sense of accomplishment", she said.
I like to do lists too. But here's what the process of creating one becomes for me:
1) get inspired to write about accomplishments
2) search on-line for images of women creating to
do lists
3) spend way, way, way to much time browsing
4) become distracted by really cool website on
bucket lists
5) find another site with a list of a thousand lists
6) …three hundred and seven, three hundred and
7) snap out of it and pick image
8) start blog post
My point is, for the "easily distracted", to do lists are great – it's the staying focused on each task that's problematic.
I guess it's why I haven't really formalized my bucket list. My list of things to do before I die is scattered everywhere, in files and formats, on spread sheets and in shoeboxes, scrawled on sheets of notebook paper, post it notes® and facial tissue, matchbook covers and cocktail napkins. And always, always running in my head.
I, too, love the sense of accomplishment that comes from checking something off the list. But not nearly so much as discovering and imagining all there still is to add to it!

"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.' – Dr. Suess
I marvel at my son Rex's straight-forward approach to life. On our walk this morning I noticed how whenever he meets someone new, fur-bearing or human, he marches right up to them, tail wagging. If in three seconds they do not respond in kind, he moves along.
(For the purposes of this post we won't go into his response when greeted in a menacing manner).
Suffice to say, he initiates all encounters by putting his best foot forward, well, all four of them. Past that, he seems particularly content with the handful of folks that are particularly content with him.
He has an assuredness of self I really admire. He's comfortable in his own dogskin. A recovering people-pleaser, I envy him that contentedness. While I'm no longer in traction from doing double back flips to win over others, I still bow and curtsy more than necessary.
It's an artform this getting-along-with-others business. And the trick may be in knowing just when to move along.
Soldier on!

"Every calling is great when greatly pursued" – Oliver Wendell Holmes
George Vernon Hudson was an entomologist. A bug studier. A pretty famous one. He was also an artist and designed stained-glass windows. Oh, and he also worked at the post office, when he wasn't out exploring New Zealand.
George thought if only there were more hours in a day he could would have more time, or at least more daylight, to pursue his varied hobbies and interests. Like insects. So he proposed the idea. Voila! Daylight Savings.
I take great comfort in reviewing Hudson's career path. Here's a guy who grew up on a farm and had a passion for playing with bugs. While I can't relate to his particular predilection, I can appreciate having one thing you want to do all the time – that's always on your mind. That you wish you had more time for, more hours in the day.
I can also relate to his less-than-straight-as-an-arrow career path. What an obvious flow from bug lover to artist, designer to astronomer, explorer to innovator.
It shows me all roads, while they may not lead to Rome, lead you right where you ought be.
And that there is no straight path, or right path, just the one we're on. However crooked or contorted in may appear, something great will come from it. Whatever your passion or calling.

"The pig and the chicken were on their way to breakfast, trying to decide what to have, when the chicken said, "Let's have ham and eggs." The pig then replied, "That's fine for you, it's a small donation on your part, but it's a total sacrifice for me." – Fable
In light of local and world events I am reminded once again that life experience is a relative thing. My dear friend Joe Mac likes to say : "If that's the worst thing that's ever happened to you, then that's the worst thing."
All I know this morning as I prepare once again to go on my usual morning walk, as I usually do, is how utterly "uninterrupted" my life is. I am able to get up and do what I choose to do, how I want to, and when I want to.
I am blessed beyond measure. Something that simple. Uninterrupted.
As I walk I will be counting my blessings. It light of the disasters of Japan and awful circumstances that have befallen so many, I have a lot to count. I can't walk far enough.
Soldier on!

Insight or Foresight?

"May you have the hindsight to know where you've been, the foresight to know where you are going, And the insight to know when you have gone too far" – Irish Blessing
I've been in glasses since the second grade when I realized I couldn't make out the street numbers on the house across the street. That made me "near-sighted", I could only see well really, really close up.
One of the grand pleasures of – hmm – I can't say growing up, as I haven't, or aging (such an awful word) let's say with the passage of time my up-close vision has deteriorated as well. As a friend remarked: "How are you supposed to put in your contact lenses when you can't even see them!'
So I'm back in glasses with three ranges of vision so I can see up close, far away and in between. Now if only there were corrective lenses for the other kind of sight – the foresight/insight type.
I've mastered hindsight – everything is perfectly clear in my rearview mirror, but I still can't quite make out the stuff ahead of me.
This morning when Rex and I were out walking, it didn't really matter how good our vision was. It was foggy -- really blurry and still pre-dawn. We couldn't see ahead of us at all. I believe the celts call that the "gloaming." No, we couldn't see in front of us, but what we could see, right where we were, was beautiful.
Maybe that's the lesson?

"It's opener there in the wide open air. Out there things can happen and frequently do to people as brainy and footsy as you. And when things start to happen, don't worry. Don't stew. Just go right along. You'll start happening too." – Dr. Suess
I'm not really certain when exactly puppy Rex figured out the mommy-takes-a-walk bit. But early on he decided this was definitely a I-want-to-go-too thing. It's gone from a
once in a while
, to an
, to a
count on it
kind of thing. Now his excitement each morning is uncontainable.
I may not get all a tingle lacing up my walking shoes, but Rex is beside himself. I may waver in my determination to set out; his resolve is unequivocal.
As he hurtles through the garage door, usually I have it opened in time, he does a one, two, three bound out and into the open air. Then, he turns back and looks at me with his "Is this great or what?" enthusiasm and urges me on out and along on our hike.
Unbridled enthusiasm for the wonders this new day shall bring.
"Alright," I say. "Alright. Bring it!"
Bring it, indeed!

Market guide | Zillow predicts Carnegie Hill home values will rise 1.4% next year, compared to a 0.9% decrease for New York as a whole. Foreclosures will be a factor impacting home values in the next several years. In the Carnegie Hill market, the number of foreclosures waiting to be sold increased 1.6% in the last year. The number of unsold foreclosures is 52.6% greater than in New York, and 89.1% lower than the national average.

text: The headset is designed to connect to PC, Playstation 3, and Xbox 360 gaming systems, and comes with all the necessary cables and connectors. It supports both analog 2-channel and digital 7.1 channel Toslink (optical) input and is certified by Dolby for use with Dolby Digital 5.1, Pro Logic IIx, and Dolby Headphone modes. The headset uses a USB connection for microphone communications on the PC and PS3, or a 3.5mm TRRS plug for the Xbox 360 and Smartphones. It comes with two boom microphones, one designed for gaming and the other for mobile hands-free use with Smartphone. The TRRS jack uses the Apple standard, with the ground on the second ring. An adapter is included, which converts to the older standard with the ground on the sleeve, so this headset can be used with any Smartphone, old or new. Additionally, it supports the Xbox Live Communication standard.Rather than using eight small drivers packed into the two ear pieces to produce the 7.1 channel audio placement, this headset uses a single 40mm driver on each side. The larger driver produces superior, distortion-free sound reproduction under both 2-channel stereo and 7.1 channel conditions. The Digital to Analog Converter (DAC) creates the necessary phasing of the audio signal to the headset to produce a clear and accurate 7.1 channel soundstage, which provides the necessary audible queues you need to excel at FPS gaming. The DAC also allows for separate volume control over each of the 8 audio channels, so you can adjust it for the perfect soundstage balance. |

We dined tonight with our friend Rose D'Agostino at the latest VFF (Vietnamese Foodie Find), Bamboo Grill and Hot Pot, where we encountered the BSE (Best Server Ever), Linda.
Linda insisted that we order this dish (above) of seafood, veggies and rice cooked in a clay pot with fish sauce. She said it -- #28 on the menu -- is the restaurant's most popular dish. It was indeed delicious, down to every last caramelized, crunchy grain of rice. At $7.50, it's a colossal bargain.
We ordered it along with the restaurant's special rice paper rolls (right) filled with cigarette-sized fried spring rolls, herbs, pork and shrimp. Dip 'em in mango sauce.
We also feasted on the signature hot pot dish, Lau Thailand, a tom-yum-like soup featuring strong chicken broth, seafood and lots of aromatic herbs and vegetables. The dish is prepared at the table.
The cost for this huge meal? $42 for three. The restaurant, open about two weeks, is located at 4646 Buford Hwy. (678-580-1727). Look for more details in "Grazing" later this week.

49% of the CEO
Steve Temares
8 people found this helpful
I worked at Bed Bath & Beyond full-time for more than 10 years
Pros – Pay can be very good if you get it when you come in, the raises have been very poor since the recession despite high performance for the company. If you are hoping for good raises/ good salary bump from promotions it is unlikely. Example, they reduced the store management bonuses by having inventory every other year(so you miss out on an LP bonus every other year) and reducing the number of mystery shops per year thereby making it more difficult to hit bonus for customer service.
Interesting mix of merchandise, discount is not great but good deals do go on the monthly incentives(every month a different small selection of merch is available to associates at basically cost) can be very useful to collecting a nice houseful of useful items
Company is completely sound financially, no debt just rolling profits back into stock buybacks which isn't bad for managers being bonused with stock.
There is a current mini exodus of senior level store management, ASM's and SM's, in Chicagoland in 2013 so there is some opportunity to jump on board.
They do enable you to really take care of customers/ go beyond normal expectations which is great for the customers and can feel really positive for you if only that same attitude applied to employees.
Cons – Antiquated systems, everyone says this but this company really takes the cake. Internal computer systems like JDA that are DOS based and materially haven't changed in almost 10 years. Redundancies and inefficiencies are almost boundless throughout all; JDA, bednet/portal, estore finally got just got improvements so that caught up to most other retailers from 5 years ago.
Culture became progressively more abusive over the years in management.
Over-reliance on claimed operational efficiency improvements to reduce payroll and headcount over the years, some of it is real and did actually make an impact but a lot of it boils down to the reality that cutting a cake 6 ways or 12 leaves you with the same amount, the slack is picked up by managers working more/ pushing already over-tasked associates for more more more which is just burn and churn.
The risk of getting a poor mystery shop score/ customer complaint is like having a knife being held over you at all times, if you're in management and either of these things happen directly related or mentioning to you it will negatively impact your review/ result in a possible write up etc.
BBB stores are done with major growth so the opportunities for advancement have greatly diminished as now its more about who you know, who gets fired or quits, more chance than ability.
Store level management autonomy and authority has steadily been decreasing over the years, to a point now that even simple things like having a formal conversation with a minimum wage associate needs an HR review beforehand and you have a district level nanny for everything; district manager, operations trainer, HR, LP, customer service. Its like being in High School where every teacher thinks that their subject is the only one you have.
Advice to Senior Management – I spent a lot of years with this company as it grew from barely a couple hundred stores to its current count of over 1k BBB's. I didn't realize how poor the company culture had gotten until I left earlier this year for a better offer. Now seeing what else is out there I finally feel comfortable writing a review to say that there are definitely better options out there, better money, more realistic expectations and a much better work life balance. This isn't a bad company by any stretch but it has definitely changed for the worse over the years. District level staff continue to balloon while senior level store management decreases, this seems counter productive to the purpose of giving great customer service, adding managers to non-store/sales floor specific purposes.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

I have been working at Bed Bath & Beyond full-time for more than 5 years
Pros – The customer service is extraordinary. You never have to worry about saying 'no' to a customer at any point.
Cons – Severely understaffed, and there is very little room for advancement opportunities.
Advice to Senior Management – Take your employees more seriously when it comes to their desires to learn and grow with the company.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
I have been working at Bed Bath & Beyond full-time for more than 5 years
Pros – Lots of room for growth with plenty of opportunities for promotion. Autonomy to make ordering and buying decisions at the store level.
Cons – Expected to work a tremendous amount of hours in order to be successful. Total benefit package somewhat lacking compared to other retailers.
Advice to Senior Management – Offer long term disability and a true bonus program.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
I have been working at Bed Bath & Beyond part-time for more than a year
Pros – Got paid more than minimum wage
Very forthcoming with hours
Cons – No room for progression
Very difficult to get a raise
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
2 people found this helpful
I worked at Bed Bath & Beyond full-time for less than a year
Pros – Coworkers can be fun, Great for the extrovert, respect days off, decent starting salary for recent college grads or individuals without degrees
Cons – Very time consuming/time demanding, unrealistic goals set by corporate cause lack of cohesiveness at store level, innovation/changes for the sake of changing, too much pressure on bridal business to carry the company, 10 hours days and only 30 minutes to eat, lack of payroll hours turns managers into highly paid hourly associates - hinders manager success
Advice to Senior Management – Enforce and support processes that support REALISTIC goals, stop cutting hours, let managers be managers, treat employees as people -> not cogs in a machine.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company

I worked at Bed Bath & Beyond full-time for more than 5 years
Pros – Great training program, learn to multi-task, great service is taught.
Cons – I was an assistant manager for many years. This company is high pressure and stress. We were scheduled 10 hour days but usually worked 11 or 12.During the holidays and back to college we worked 50 to 60 hour weeks just to keep up. The Company expects salaried management to work as many hours needed to get it done, we were made to come in on off days and holidays to work. After putting in a 70 hour week during inventory because the store manger said we had to or our jobs were on the line with the district staff, I found another job.
Advice to Senior Management – District staff needs to talk to all members of management when visiting and be more motivating instead of negative. Don't teach the fear tactic to run a business. Try to promote a healthy work/home balance, and make sure the store manger sticks to it with all his/her staff.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

I worked at Bed Bath & Beyond part-time for more than a year
Pros – It was nice to be allowed and able to go the "extra mile" for customers, to an extent.
Cons – 1. A company policy is "never say no" which translates daily to "let rude customers walk all over you while managers stand idly by and apologize to customers although you are simply following policy".
2. There are NEVER enough employees on staff, which hurts customers and employees alike.
3. No "time and a half" on holidays.
4. Not allowed to state that the store is closing over intercom, causing employees to stay late into the night.
Advice to Senior Management – Show your employees you value them. If you take care of them, they will take care of the company. Less is not more when it comes to staff. Spend the extra money to have more people on the schedule.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Theoretical performance of wurtzite and zincblende InGaN/GaN quantum well lasers
The theoretical gain, radiative and Auger recombination rates, and threshold current densities of ideal wurtzite (WZ) and zincblende (ZB) GaNmultiple quantum welllaser diodes are compared. We obtain upper bounds on device performance, which are based on reliable calculations for both band structure and recombination dependent features and show (1) that the performance of present devices having the ZB and WZ structures are within 20% of each other in InGaN/GaN, and (2) that present performance of the best currently available devices is only a factor of 3–4 below the theoretical limit. Radiative recombination is far more important than Auger processes. The calculations are performed using a superlattice formalism and density functional theory within the local-density approximation. The latter yields bulk zone-center energies, wave functions, and directly calculated momentum matrix elements.

O.J. Simpson Hearing Day 4
Thu, May 16, 2013 (12:34 p.m.)
O.J. Simpson's evidentiary hearing continues in Clark County District Court in Las Vegas, Nevada Thursday, May 16, 2013. Simpson, who is currently serving a nine-to-33-year sentence in state prison as a result of his October 2008 conviction for armed robbery and kidnapping charges, is using a writ of habeas corpus to seek a new trial, claiming he had such bad representation that his conviction should be reversed.

Ever wondered if Roman Blinds really did originate in Rome? Well I can now reveal that they did! Apparently invented in response to the amount of dust generated from carts travelling along unpaved roads and builders chipping away at stone blocks in Mediterranean cities like Rome. So plain pieces of cloth were hung at windows to keep dust out and it was soon realised that they were also useful for temperature control by reducing sunlight penetration. It was much later that roman blinds became not just functional but also the decorative window dressing they are today.

It's a girl: Rose-Tu's calf is born
- Wendy Culverwell
- Staff reporter- Portland Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
Rose-Tu the Elephant's first calf headlined the Oregon Zoo's successful bond campaign in 2008. Voters took one look at "little" Samudra and promptly agreed to raise local property taxes to support a $125 million capital bond to fund zoo improvements, including to the elephant habitat.
There, we've established that baby elephants are legitimate real estate news.
Portland, as you no doubt have heard, has a new one. Rose-Tu gave birth to a female calf overnight and the zoo publicity machine is in high gear. The birth went well. The calf is a healthy 300 pounds and, most important, here are the pictures.
Enjoy! Need more numbers? Here is a look at the economic impact of the zoo and Portland's other publicly-owned visitor amenities.
Wendy Culverwell covers real estate, retail and hospitality.

Lea Michele made two mistakes on Saturday: She stepped out for a nail salon appointment in Los Angeles sporting a comfy gray T-shirt, and she apparently swallowed some sort of sustenance.
Faster than you can say "baby jazz hands," the paparazzi began speculating that the petite "Glee" actress might be expecting a bundle of musical joy with her boyfriend and co-star, Cory Monteith.
Seems the shutterbugs suspected that Lea was using her oversized black bag to cover up a barely perceptible belly bulge. Of course, less than a week earlier, Lea showed no signs of a swelling midsection when she posed in a see-through black gown at Elle's annual Women in Hollywood event.
So, is there a Broadway-loving baby on the way?
Michele, 26, who recently gushed that she "definitely" wants kids ("As many as I can!"), quickly laughed off the bun-in-the-oven rumors, tweeting on Monday, "My first fake pregnancy rumor! I've finally made it! :)"

My husband is a big kid in many ways. He still loves legos, will happily sit down and watch cartoons with the boys, and still comes up with projects that from what I've heard is what he did as a child. I love this about him. I love his creativity and fun nature. I love how he plays and experiments with things, and that our boys will grow up watching and learning with him. Our trip last weekend to the farm was the perfect time for him to channel his entertaining curiosity and his high aspirations. Above the clouds high!
A few weeks before our trip Tim started devising his latest plan. First several miles of heavy duty fishing line, and a red weather balloon were delivered to our house.... at which point I knew something was up! Next up he collected several iPhones that we weren't using. Once we were at the farm he convinced his mom to retrieve a huge helium tank he'd rented and drive it out to us, which made it look like she was transporting a missile! Finally he constructed two crazy rigs; one made from wood, an old fishing pole, and a drill, and another consisting of hangers, blue painters tape, the iPhones, and one of Henry's toy dinosaurs. The goal? To send the dino up into the air with a crazy rig he constructed, while the iPhones videotaped the journey. With his brother's help Tim got to work. The initial plan was to bring the balloon back down, but Tim didn't account for a pop up storm that wasn't on weather.com's radar. A slight glitch in plans, the balloon didn't make it back to the farm, but instead travelled 60 miles away and landed in a soy bean field. Luckily Apple's Find My iPhone app saved the day and the next day we recovered the dino, video footage and all. We just had to take quite the detour to find it!
It was crazy fun watching Tim construct and launch this project, and I had a blast taking pictures of it all. The final result was pretty amazing. Don't miss the video at the end of the post for the dino pics. They're incredible. I love how Tim's brain works, and I love that my boys will grow up doing crazy experiments that I would never think to do. I may not understand what they're doing, but rest assured, I'll be there to document it all!!

I wrote you 365 letters. I wrote you everyday for a year. It wasn't over. It still isn't over.
You're a terrible singer, but I love this song.
They didn't agree on much. In fact they rarely agreed on anything. They fought all the time. And they challenged each other everyday. But despite their indifferences they had one important thing in common: they were crazy about each other.
The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds. And that's what you've given me. That's what I'd hoped to give you forever.
That's what we do, we fight! You tell me when I'm being an arrogant son of a bitch and I tell you when you're being a pain in the ass, which you are 99% of the time. I'm not afraid to hurt your feelings. You have like a 2 second rebound rate and your back doing the next pain in the ass thing. So it's not gonna be easy. It's gonna be really hard and we're gonna have to work at this everyday. But I wanna do that because I want you, I want all of you, forever, you and me, everyday

REVIEW: Ecstasy Unveiled by Larissa Ione
Dear Ms. Ione: Ecstasy Unveiled is the fourth book in the Demonica series. I've enjoyed all of the three previous books to varying degrees. The last one was my favorite and while I enjoyed this entry Wraith and Serena from Passion Unleashed remains my favorite couple. The action in this book is non stop and(…)

Under Mr.Nolan's Bed vs Temptation #1
I was given a copy of this 1st installment in exchange for an honest review.
Having read the first edition of ''Under Mr.Nolan's Bed'', makes it hard to nudge it aside and let another claim its reign.
As a rewrite, "Temptation,#1", wasn't bad at all.The author mastered to portray its chronological placement simply by altering significant details which were consistent with that time.
It contained most of the original story untouched, while adding quite a lot intriguing lines to it.
I really didn't enjoyed that the story was unfolding in the 50's, due to the fact that society's puritanism was at its peak at the time, thus making the story even more unattainable.
I love it when a story makes you forget your boundaries for a while, even when you know it's only a fiction story, as naughty as it was .
Unfortunately I didn't get to feel that emotional high of being swept away by the story.
I do, though, find exciting the fact that most of the original edition was placed in the 1st installment, which can only mean that there will be brand new developments in the next two books.1 out of 1 people found this review helpful.
