text: Blog Employee EngagementEmployee Journey Maps: Designing the Perfect Employee Experience Jill ChristensenMarch 21, 2019 · 5 min read There's a growing recognition among business leaders of the close connection between the employee experience and the customer experience – and the bottom line. According to Gartner research, 51% of HR executives identified the employee experience as a key initiative for 2019.But what's the difference between employee engagement and the employee experience? Employee engagement has long taken centre stage among organizational priorities, and for good reason: companies with highly engaged employees have stronger financial performance and better customer experience. In fact, customer experience leaders have 1.5 times as many engaged employees as customer experience stragglers.The employee experience, a more recent concept, has a broader focus that encompasses engagement. It's the sum of all interactions an employee has with their employer, including how the employee perceives the company overall and their role within it.Devoting the same care and attention to the employee experience as you give the customer experience has positive ripple effects across the whole organization: employees are more engaged and productive, retention rates are higher, and customers get better service. According to a research study conducted by Jacob Morgan, companies that invest in employee experience are four times more profitable than those that don't.But there's a lot of work to be done: Gallup found an alarming 87% of employees worldwide are not engaged, while 71% of HR practitioners think that senior leaders could do more to improve the employee experience. On the flip side, companies with highly engaged workforces outperform their peers by 147% in earnings per share, while organizations that score in the top 25% on employee experience report that they see nearly three times the return on assets as those in the bottom quarter.The good news is that organizations already have the knowledge and skills to enhance the employee experience. They just have to apply the principles of customer experience design – such as journey mapping – to employees. The tactics your marketing team uses to optimize the customer experience can be applied to the employee experience as well.At each point on the employee journey map, digital solutions – from onboarding centers to recognition tools – can help companies create positive, productive interactions that add up to an exceptional employee experience.What is Employee Journey Mapping?An employee journey map is a visualization of the timeline of the entire employee experience, starting when people consider applying for a position until they leave the company. It depicts all the key touchpoints along the way, while underscoring employee needs and pain points. Gaining a deeper, holistic understanding of a person's journey level experience helps organizations create a better overall employee experience.The employee mapping process takes the perspective of employees, emphasizing the moments that matter most to them. These moments range from day one on the job and the first paycheque to attending a company-wide meeting and pursuing new training opportunities.Considerations for High-Level Mapping & Individual Employee JourneysJust as the customer journey can vary widely in one company, so can the employee journey. Journey maps should account for this diversity by assessing the needs and goals of all kinds of employees. Consider creating employee personas, just you would for customers. A baby boomer who's been at the organization for decades and plans to retire soon will have a very different map to a recent graduate starting their first real job. Journey maps should also exist for employees who will resign or be terminated.Another key consideration in employee journey mapping is the growing proportion of millennials in organizations. By 2020, they will make up 50% of the global workforce, and 75% by 2025. Compared to previous generations, millennials have different workstyles, expectations of employers, and preferred digital tools. As a result, their maps will look different to those of other generations.Emulating a Customer Journey Map for Employee ExperiencesTo map an employee's experience, use the same principles underlying customer journey mapping. Here's an example of a customer journey map that can easily be adapted to align with the employee lifecycle in your organization.Just as you would all possible interactions a customer has with your company, your employee journey map should include every stage of the lifecycle and should provide quick, visual starting points for evaluating the success of these touchpoints. These are some of the key questions to ask at each part of the journey:What is the employee trying to do?What is the employee feeling?What are the barriers?What are the supports (digital or human)? The Harvard Business Review suggests aligning the employee lifecycle to these 10 stages. At each stage, an organization has the opportunity to create a positive employee experience, often with the help of a digital tool designed to solve critical business challenges.1. Sourcing and RecruitingThink of this stage in the employee journey like lead generation in the consumer journey. Today's employees are more empowered than ever before, and the current war for talent means organizations must invest more than ever before in online and offline recruitment.2. Pre-OnboardingAfter they accept an offer but before they step in the door, there are many ways to start engaging new hires. Get them acquainted with your culture by inviting them to join company social networks and peruse the latest company news.3. Onboarding (orientation and initial training)A central digital destination for onboarding can accelerate the time to productivity. It brings together a social space for welcoming new employees, a learning zone, and a platform for asking questions.4. Compensation and benefitsInquiries about payroll and benefits policies can waste time for employees and HR alike. With a self-service HR tool, you can centralize this information in an easy-to-find place.5. Ongoing learning and developmentContinually expanding an employee's knowledge and skills is an integral part of any journey. Digital knowledge management solutions allow you to grow, capture, store, and share collective wisdom.6. Ongoing engagement, communication, and community involvementInformed and connected employees are engaged employees. A dedicated space for company news, policies and corporate governance makes it easy to access business-critical information and feel in the loop.7. Rewards and recognitionIt's a simple equation: employee recognition + rewards = employee loyalty + engagement. A one-stop solution for nominating and showcasing people's achievement helps you manage every aspect of your employee recognition program.8. Performance planning, feedback, and reviewThe employee journey mapping process should include detailed information about when and how people will receive feedback on their performance.9. Mapping the Journey to AdvancementTo stay motivated and engaged over the long term, employees need to understand the KPIs and benchmarks that will determine when they move up the ladder during their journey.10. Retirement, termination, or resignationThe end of the journey level experience is different for every employee, and their maps will highlight the different resources required to support people through their exit from the company.How to get started with employee journey mappingStart small by mapping out one or two pivotal moments before creating a map of the whole employment lifecycle, and ensure all the key stakeholders are on board (HR, IT, Marketing, etc.). Plot the key interactions and identify where employees are getting what they want and need, where they aren't, and how digital tools can improve the experience.With decades of experience building digital workplace destinations for organizations of varying sizes and industry focus, Igloo Software has developed a proven framework to guide their customers through their digital workplace transformation journey.

A man found dead north of Brisbane was tortured in an Esky, had a finger broken or possibly cut off, and had honey put on his genitals before he was killed, a Brisbane court has heard. Three men have pleaded not guilty to the murder of Gold Coast man Shaun Barker, who was 33 when his charred remains were found at Cooloola Cove near Gympie in April 2014. The court heard he was a drug associate of Stephen John Armitage, his son Matthew Leslie Armitage, and William Francis Dean, who are being tried for murder, torture and interfering with a corpse. "Shaun Barker was tortured, murdered and his remains burnt by the three defendants," crown prosecutor Glenn Cash told the court on day one of the trial at the Supreme Court in Brisbane. Mr Cash said Mr Barker was probably tortured for some sort of information about drugs. The court heard that while there were no eyewitnesses to the victim's death, it would be a matter of the jury inferring or drawing conclusions based on the evidence. "The case will leave you in no doubt there was a man in the Esky, he was being tortured, and that man was Shaun Barker," Mr Cash said. The court heard prior to being killed, Mr Barker was using and dealing the drug ice and had a related debt and his life had been "spiralling out of control". The trial is set down for two weeks.

About My Art by Melanie Birk
Background . . . A former writer, I began painting about 16 years ago, after my family moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico. Diagnosed with a chronic illness and raising 3 small children, I found painting more energizing and therapeutic than writing. I studied with successful local artists and began painting vibrant landscapes in acrylic. Eventually, my work evolved into a larger scale, focusing on joyful depictions of nature and including mixed media.
Signatures . . . Hallmarks of my art are the use of happy, vivid color; the portrayal of nature in a contemporary, whimsical style; and an unusual mix of prints and patterns that is stimulating and artful. I am a garden lover and never tire of examining plants to feature in my work. Handmade paper, turquoise fragments and feathers are among my favorite objects to incorporate.
Color . . . I enjoy using saturated color and am influenced by "les fauves," a group of early 20th-century artists known for their intense palette. I employ bold hues to evoke emotion and express vitality.
Nature . . . Many of my pieces are inspired by the abundant color and texture of nature's flora. Stylized leaves, flowers and branches are layered and intertwined in a playful style, reflecting my belief in the interconnectedness of all living things. Other pieces reflect aerial points of view, architectural formations, or visions from my dreams.
Blue Thistle Arts . . . I print patterns from my original art onto fabric, and then produce luxury one-of-a-kind scarves, shawls, tunics and pillow covers. This venture allows me to reach more people with my art and fulfill my mission, described below. Go to www.bluethistlearts.com to view my e-boutique.
Mission . . . My goal is to celebrate the awesome beauty of Nature through my art, and to inspire us all to appreciate and conserve our fragile planet.
Studio . . . My home, studio and gallery are open by appointment, located in the Art Barns community near Santa Fe, New Mexico. 505.660.4063

I was once a voice & wireless technology analyst. Why am I even mentioning this? I guess to make the point that I was once cool. (Once you have kids and start driving a minivan, you're no longer cool, no matter your profession). No–now I remember! I've been working outside all day today and there's nothing like manual labor to get your mental voice talking.
I was working for an Analyst & Consulting firm in Princeton, NJ as an editorial assistant and they needed another analyst, so they "promoted" me. It was basically baptism by fire. My boss thought nothing of sending me into New York City to give a presentation to a client when I had, oh about 5 days of experience under my belt. It was terrifying and I did make an ass of myself. Soon, however, I was writing Advisories and White Papers and helping draft SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) analyses. I also gave media quotes. Sounds exciting, right?
I'm a writer, but there's some kinds of writing that I just don't enjoy. It's easy if you have the technical background because then you're following that cardinal rule of writing–writing what you know (a rule, btw, that we should and do break as writers, but it involves a lot of research to make up for lack of familiar knowledge).
I met with clients–and we had some pretty cool ones. OnStar when it was owned by General Magic and not General Motors. Ours. Telenavigation, a company who was doing turn-by-turn directions in cars before that technology hit the market. Ours. TellMe, who thought that they could create a voice Web similar to the Internet and didn't, but now supply the dreaded yet famous voice menu we all hear when we dial any company these days (any time you hear that digital boop boop boop as the system is calculating–that's theirs). Our client. It was fun; it was exciting. I was moderating sessions in Tier 1 cities with Tier 1 technology companies. I once asked the VP of wireless at Sprint a question that nobody else had the balls to ask him (no, I don't even remotely remember what it was) simply because I didn't know better. People thought I was gutsy–I was just naive.
My point, because you'll find that I have so much to say that I sometimes stray far from it, is that I used to be in the eye of the technological storm. (Sadly, I often ask my kids to set up a movie for me now because three remote controls are two too many.) Yet, I'd gladly give up most technology in exchange for the simple things and a much quieter life.
So, as I mentioned, I spent hours outside today. It was the first day I had no pressing projects and Mother Nature provided New Jersey with a beautiful, warm and sunny Spring day, so the timing was perfect. I wanted to get my seeds in the starter kits and plan out the new garden I wanted to do in a bigger part of the backyard. I also thought I'd finally build the fire pit that I've meant to build for a few years now. When we had our patio redone about 6 or 7 years ago, I'd saved all of the old bricks behind the shed. There are quite a lot of them.
As I was building the pit, I thought about how happy I was just doing work outside on a beautiful day. I love creating things, and gardens and even fire pits fall into that category. I got my seeds into their little homemade "terrariums"–I'm hoping to have the largest garden yet this year. I have no doubt that I'd be happy on a farm. I've even considered having chickens in my backyard. There's something to be said for growing your own food and certainly, nothing is as fresh as a vegetable just picked from a garden. When it comes down to it, isn't growing something one of the most important things we can do?
So many of the "careers" and jobs out there are pointless and meaningless–like my job as an analyst. We weren't creating anything lasting, and that's what I want to do. Whether a garden, a fire pit, or a book whose words resonant with even one person years after I'm gone, I simply want to create.
Oh–and guess what the entire family did tonight? We didn't watch TV and the kids didn't get on their iPads. Instead, we sat around the fire, roasting marshmallows and filling in Mad-Libs. We saw the first star appear in the night sky and watched geese fly overhead. It was peaceful, it was relaxing, it was wondrous.

Hey Im Katie
Sometime poems they dont quite rhyme
And sometimes i guess they do...
When You Were Just a Kitten And I Was just a girl
You came into my life and became my world...
I feel the warmth of the summer sun
As I sit alone on the balcony...
The stars twinkle above like diamonds so far...
But they take my breath away and I lose the power...
I will be forever me
The nothing you can change...
I made my choice. I made the Wrong Choice and now its too late.
And while I'm sleeping Next to him, I'm Dreaming of you </3
You Should Never Have To Change For Anyone But I'm Finding My Self Changing Me So Maybe You'll Love Me Just That Little Bit More

Ramaa Mosley has been making movies that matter since she was a teenager, beginning with her documentary We Can Make a Difference, which won a UN Global 500 Award. She has since made documentaries and music videos about such diverse subjects as Bolivia's Aymara Indians and The B-52s. Also an award-winning commercial director, she is at work on another documentary, as well as her first feature, The Brass Teapot. We asked her what continues to inspire her, from other people's work to the latest tools.
Q: What are you working on today?
A: Just finished shooting spots for Microsoft Kinect (Kinectimal). Sitting in a dark edit bay trying not to eat the chocolate.
Q: What's the best tool or innovation that you've started using in the last year?
A: Canon 5D and social marketing (more specifically fan pages on facebook).
Q: What's the project that most impressed you in the last year?
A: Chris Milk's experimental music video "The Wilderness Project" is one of the best pieces of work I've seen all year; it is web-based, interactive, powerful art. It allows you to type in the location of your childhood home or school and then builds a video around Google satellite images of that location. I think this is a brilliant use of music and media.
In terms of film, Winter's Bone is a must see. Sparse, taut, gripping. The performances are incredible. Made for very little money, locally in Appalachia. After I saw it I sat in the theater gripped with a mixture of jealousy and inspiration. That's always a good sign when movie makes me want to go make a movie.
Q: What's your favorite project that you worked on in the past year?
A: The Milkbone commercials and webisodes, because the project was about something that truly matters: The Canine Assistants Org in Alpharetta Georgia. They breed, train for two years and then give away 100 dogs a year to critically ill and disabled people. The dogs are super dogs and know over 91 skills, from picking a dropped sock to opening doors to calling 911. The campaign was shot on four Canon 5D cameras by Danny Moder and his team. It was like a mini documentary and it fed my soul. I love being on location working with real people. I was especially moved by this project.
Q: Who are the top artists—or apps—on your iPod?
A: Bat for lashes, The Killers, Carly Simon's "You're So Vain," OK Go, Facebook and Drunkalizer

The morning started with a few urgent words, "come, it's serious." A rush to the house found my mum muttering away with continuous repetitive words but showing signs of massive confusion, drooling and lack of movement in her right side. An ambulance arrived, a trip to hospital was made and this started the new chapter of our lives and our mother's.
My mother had been diagnosed with early dementia the year before and there were adjustments and acceptance that had to be processed. But this new chapter was more than we could bear at times.
Rehabilitation was tried but there didn't seem to be much recognition of what was being asked of her and there certainly wasn't much recognition on our behalf of what was being told to us by mum.
Eventually the only solution, at the time, was a dementia-secure area at a nursing home. The shock and the horror of all of this was a daily heartbreak, with not a lot of hope offered due to the inability to give information or understand what was being asked of us by mum.
She had mobility and the use of her right side but with limited awareness of what was going on that side of her body. Eating was a nightmare, dressing caused confusion but her gentle spirit encouraged us.
Eventually after a month my sister and dad took her out of the home and trialed her at my sister's and improvement came to the point that she was able to go and live back at home with dad, that was two years ago.
Mum's language centre crashed with the stroke – no reading, no writing, no understanding of what we were saying and no understanding of what she was saying to us. Yes, there were words that she said and at times even small sentences, more like statements that we understood but a new communication schedule had to be learnt.
We were told that she had expressive and receptive aphasia and coupled with the dementia it seemed like a unique situation. Maybe there are others out there who have experienced this and our hearts go out to you too.
Mum doesn't know that we don't understand her and mostly she doesn't know that she doesn't understand us. But she does know when she is not included in a conversation and when conversations go backward and forward between others around her.
We are no longer able to have a conversation, as we know a conversation to be, but we respond to her statements and try to get our "that's good" or our "oh, it's OK" right depending on the way she expresses her statement. Dad is wonderful with trying to respond the way she expects but he does get it wrong at times and things are 'quiet' for a while, then life goes on again. Trying to explain what is happening or what is to happen is very difficult, very challenging and patience is the number one virtue that we strive to attain.
My sister and I sometimes share a tear and say to each other, "if only we could have mum back for a day". If only. We have learnt to enjoy as many moments with her as we can for as long as we can. The dementia increases and the understanding decreases but she has enjoyed two extra years of quality care and family love. She still cares about us in her little gestures and still those little words sneak out, "be careful" and "are you right?" as she watches out for us. What an example she is to us and how deep-rooted is her love for us!
Body language is a wonderful thing. A hug, a kiss, a rub of the back, a gentle hand gesture, a massage of the hands, a filing of the nails, a hair comb, a bunch of flowers all tell her she is loved and everything is as 'normal' as it can be.
She still enjoys a drive in the car, a soft curly ice-cream through the 'drive-thru', a nice cold lemonade, a piece of lemon-meringue pie and a walk around the shops. She likes to pull-out the dead leaves in my garden, fold my clothes, wipe-up the dishes, cut out pictures from magazines and 'watches me' pin material onto other fabric, like she did as a seamstress many years ago.
Her happy disposition and her ability to enjoy a bit of fun still shines through and gives us hope for another day when she isn't cooperative and is upset with us for a reason we probably will never know why.
The things we learn from this experience include patience, acceptance, unconditional love, communication without words and language, and a desire to give a person quality of life for as long as we can with as much of ourselves poured into them and an appreciation for the chance to have her here a little longer.

NATO strongly protests Russian violations of Turkey's airspace
Statement by the North Atlantic Council on incursions into Turkey's airspace by Russian aircraft
The North Atlantic Council met on Monday 5 October to hold consultations on the potential implications of the recent dangerous military actions of the Russian Federation in and around Syria.
Allies expressed their deep concern with regard to the Russian military build-up in Syria and especially the attacks by the Russian Air Force on Hama, Homs, and Idlib which led to civilian casualties and did not target Da'esh. Allies call on the Russian Federation to immediately cease its attacks on the Syrian opposition and civilians, to focus its efforts on fighting ISIL, and to promote a solution to the conflict through a political transition.
Russian military actions have reached a more dangerous level with the recent violations of Turkish airspace on 3 October and 4 October by Russian Air Force SU-30 and SU-24 aircraft in the Hatay region. The aircraft in question entered Turkish airspace despite Turkish authorities' clear, timely and repeated warnings. In accordance with NATO practice, Turkish fighter aircraft responded to these incursions by closing to identify the intruder, after which the Russian planes departed Turkish airspace.
Allies strongly protest these violations of Turkish sovereign airspace, and condemn these incursions into and violations of NATO airspace. Allies also note the extreme danger of such irresponsible behaviour. They call on the Russian Federation to cease and desist, and immediately explain these violations.
Allies call on the Russian side to take all necessary measures to ensure that such violations do not take place in the future.

Finally arriving at the state sign at the border.
And continued driving to Birmingham.
The colors of the trees are quite pretty.
I meet up with my friend Hope and her family: Tim (husband), Sage and Journey. She was my account manager for Intermark Group when I worked at Sigma Nu HQ and we kept in touch over the years. When she left Intermark Group I lost touch with her but then renewed it through facebook.
It was Veterans Day so there was a parade and additionally a fly over.
It was a beautiful day in Birmingham. Perfect weather for a walk in the park and additionally kids playtime.
I like the road side marketing. Pun intended!
I walk inside to a spacious brewery.
And order a sampler and something to snack on. And then I talk to some locals.
And after finished my sampler, I head over to Huntsville, Alabama to see one of my very good friends: Russell and his family. I haven't seen Russell and his wife Jennessa in a while. I met Russell through working for Sigma Nu. He also is a Sigma Nu and volunteered with the Headquarters and so our paths crossed, and we've stayed in touch ever since.
Had a great dinner with his family and spent sometime catching up with him. Their son Tyce insisted on getting in the adult picture. So did their dog. 🙂 So we did a group selfie.
After dinner with Russell and Jennessa, I head over to JT's house. I actually haven't met JT but our mutual friend Chandler hooked me up with a place to stay for the night through JT.
JT doesn't get in until late, so I meet up with his roommates and briefly say hi to him when he comes in late.
Travel Date: Wednesday, Nov 12 2014
However, in the morning we share some coffee and conversation together.
And then it is time to drive to HOT Atlanta to see one of my good friends from college: Elias.
Today was a Sigma Nu packed day.
I first hung out with Marcus in Jackson, Mississippi, and then headed to see an old friend Hope whom I haven't seen in a while. And the irony is that I met her through working for Sigma Nu HQ. It was great to see her and meet her family. Her kids Sage and Journey are adorable and I got a reasonable work out playing soccer with them. I'm soooo out of shape.
Seeing Russell (who is also a Sigma Nu) and his family was also great. Whenever I'm near Huntsville I try make time to visit them. Thank you Russell and Jennessa for the impromptu dinner.
And also getting a place to stay at JT's home (a Sigma Nu) through a friend Chandler (also a Sigma Nu) made me appreciate the Sigma Nu connection and networking more.
Russell, JT and Chandler are all from the same Sigma Nu Chapter: Mu Beta – The University of Alabama in Huntsville. I met Russell when he was a volunteer for Sigma Nu HQ. I met Chandler when we contracted him to do work for Sigma Nu HQ. And I met JT through Chandler's efforts to find me a place to stay for the night. Did I forget to mention JT's roommates are also Sigma Nu's.
There is probably too much brotherly love and fraternalism in this post already! 🙂 I'm proud of my fraternity affiliation and grateful for its networking connections.

Following the success of this year's London Marathon the Club is proposing to put in place a policy relating to how the ballot for Club places that we receive from UKA is administered.
Historically, each year UKA provides one or two entries into the London Marathon to affiliated clubs including ours.
The number of places provided depends on the number of paid-up UKA affiliated members in the Club.
Last year Kirsty Woodwood-Owen was drawn from the hat for the one place we had and she successfully completed the Marathon last weekend.
The policy is being put together by a small working party and will be published next month but please be aware that it will most likely include the requirement that you have entered one of the London Marathon Ballots and failed to get a place.
The main ballot is open now and closes on Friday 3rd May at 5pm and you can enter here.

Fantasy Football Sleepers Week 15
One of the reasons why I love the NFL so much compared to other sports is the parody and storylines. While other sports also have those points, you can make the case that the NFL carries so much more diversity than the rest. A big reason why is the fact that the league's regular season is only 17 weeks long and teams only play 16 games. In theory, every game counts.
Now, as we sit here in Week 15, the parody can't get any better than this. While many teams are out of it, 26 different clubs remain in the playoff hunt, which is the most since 2004, and I can't get enough.
The same can be said in fantasy football. Although some formats stretch the full 17 weeks of the season, the majority of the fantasy league's keep their championship game in Week 16. So Week 15 is the final four of fantasy football. I hope you enjoyed the ride because I know I did. However, part of the NFL's parody is injuries. Consequentially, those "real football" injuries significantly affect the landscape of fantasy football.
Entering Week 15, Melvin Gordon and Spencer Ware did not play on Thursday night, Odell Beckham Jr. is out, James Conner is questionable and Ben Roethlisberger is banged up. With some of fantasy football's most prolific players in and out of lineups, sleepers and dart throws become that much more valuable. It's win-or-go-home. It's the playoffs. It's my fantasy football sleepers. Let's get the gold!
Most-Productive Players from Week 14

|Dak Prescott
|Josh Johnson

|Andrew Luck

|Christian McCaffrey
|Jarvis Landry
|Patrick Mahomes
|Matt Ryan
While the top 15 overall fantasy football scoring leaderboard was dominated by some of the most notable names in the NFL last week, there were quite a few sleepers in the mix as well. Josh Johnson (0.2), Ryan Tannehill (1.7) and Derrick Henry (34.7) are all being started in fewer than 50 percent of ESPN Fantasy leagues this week and finished amongst the top 15 most productive players for Week 14. For the purpose of this article, any player with less than a 50 percent start-percentage at ESPN Fantasy will meet the criteria of eligibility to qualify as a sleeper despite their notoriety.[the_ad id="79657″][the_ad id="79658″]

Week 14 Full-Disclosure: By the Numbers
Week 14 wasn't good to me. And if it wasn't good to me and you're reading this, it probably wasn't good to you either. I hope you all came out alive. Since I stand by my calls, I started Ty Montgomery last week in PPR over Jordan Howard and lost by a handful of points. It made a lot of sense but came back to bite me. It sucks. This was probably the most-difficult full-disclosure of the year to recap due to the magnitude of the games. UGH.
- While Josh Allen finished as the QBs and is the QB1 in the past three weeks, he didn't perform as well as I expected. Due to his lack of weapons, these letdowns will happen until the BIlls improve, hopefully, this offseason.
- Chris Godwin was a tremendous fail, but the call made a ton of sense. While he only caught one pass he was targeted 10 times. However, I would say the bulk of those targets were uncatchable and on Jameis Winston if you watched the game. Still, it doesn't help the end result.
- Courtland Sutton also plummetted, but his thigh injury was surely to blame. He banged up his thigh early in the matchup and played through it, which explains his letdown.
- Dan Arnold was an unexpected inactive designation. I usually like to update my article with another option, but I can't do that unless they are ruled out the day before.
- My best call was Ian Thomas, who is beginning to emerge as a legit pass-catching option in a young offense. For all you dynasty players out there, I would be looking at Thomas. While Greg Olsen may return next season, he could also return. And even if Olsen foes play, who knows if he will be the same. He's north of 30-years-old and has been battling injury for the past two years. I don't blame him if he walks away. In that scenario, Thomas would be a fringe TE1 to open 2019. You heard it here first.
The following is a recap of the players from my Week 14 Fantasy Football Sleepers article. You can read that here.
Entering Week 15, some fantasy owners may be forced to shop the waiver wire due bye weeks and a handful of notable injuries from around the league. With players that include LeSean McCoy, Ben Roethlisberger, and Jordan Reed all succumbing to injuries last week, some more significant than the others, be sure to check out Andrew Erickson's Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 15 to help you fill the vacant holes on your fantasy rosters. You can read that here.
Week 15 QB Fantasy Sleepers
Kirk Cousins
ESPN Start-Percentage: 37.4%
Normally, Kirk Cousins is not viewed as a sleeper. However, as we sit in Week 15 in 2018, he very much is despite his notable name. While he is being rostered in 89.9 percent of ESPN leagues, Cousins is only being started in 37.4 percent of them. Many of Cousins' fantasy owners, including myself, are panicking. I'm going to tell you why you shouldn't and why he should be in your lineups this week.
While Cousins played well early in the season, he's struggled immensely in the second half and especially in his past five games. Since Week 9, Cousins has totaled fewer than 15 fantasy points in 4-of-5 games, fewer than 10.8 points in three games, and fewer than eight points twice. In that five-game timespan, the Vikings are 2-3. a Super Bowl-or-bust team in 2018, someone had to pay for their offensive struggles and it came in the form of first-time offensive coordinator John DeFilippo, who was fired earlier in the week. With interim OC Kevin Stefanski taking over, perhaps the shakeup will do Cousins good.
What will also do Cousins good is his upcoming matchup at home versus the Dolphins. Not only are the Dolphins allowing the 13th most fantasy points to enemy QBs at an 18.2 FPPG rate, but they could also be without Xavien Howard, who is dealing with a knee injury. While he has yet to be ruled out — he is 50/50 for the game — he could be a step slower even if he is active. Howard's absence should open things up even more for Cousins as Miami would be without their top cover corner. Let's go Stefon Diggs. Moreover, they have also been vulnerable to the tight end, which is why I'm also on-board with Kyle Rudolph.
Facing a Dolphins defense surrendering 51.3 percent more fantasy points to QBs above the 20.5-point league average in the past three weeks — they've been lit up by Andrew Luck (29.7), Josh Allen (33.1) and Tom Brady (30.2) in that time period — Cousins brings top-end QB1 upside. Whether you think Cousins qualifies as a sleeper this week or not — and he does — START HIM!
Derek Carr
ESPN Start-Percentage: 4.3%
I'm usually not a Raiders or a Derek Carr guy, but in the past two games, he's played really well. In fact, passing for 607 yards, five touchdowns, and zero picks while completing north of 70 percent of his passes in his past two games since Week 13 against the Chiefs (24.2-points) and Steelers (18.8), Carr is the QB3 with 43 fantasy points. Now, he will look to build on his late-season success in a dream matchup on the road in Cincinnati.
Not only will Carr face a Bengals defense surrendering the third-most fantasy points to rival QBs at a 21.7 FPPG pace, but they have allowed at least 17.6 fantasy points to nine different QBs this season in 13 games while ceding 30 total TDs to the position. In a game in which the Raiders will likely run the ball well, the passing lanes should be wide open for Carr to exploit. Moreover, in a game that could be a shootout due to both defenses being bad, Carr might end up passing a ton. Carr has fringe QB1 upside if he plays mistake-free football and takes advantage of the matchups.
[the_ad id="79528″][the_ad id="69556″]
Week 15 RB Fantasy Sleepers
Elijah McGuire
ESPN Start-Percentage: 7.8%
With Isaiah Crowell already ruled out with a foot injury and Trenton Cannon questionable to play with a hamstring, Elijah McGuire is in line to handle the bulk of the workload in a tough Week 15 matchup with Houston. It has been a lost season of sorts for McGuire, who missed the first half of the year due to injury. And upon his Week 9 return, the second-year rusher ceded touches to Crowell, the starter, Bilal Powell before he was placed on IR and Cannon, which limited his upside.
However, when he was given the opportunity to produce last week, McGuire did just that. Managing 20 touches (three receptions), McGuire totaled 83 yards and a touchdown and finished Week 15 with 17.3 PPR points. What is significant is the fact that it was the first time this season in which McGuire received north of nine touches. Before getting 17 carries last week, McGuire was capped at six rushing attempts in each of the first four games he's been active.
While McGuire's upcoming matchup with the Texans isn't a favorable one — the Texans are allowing the 26th most fantasy points to RBs at a mere 16.4 FPPG pace — they have given up at least 16.2 PPR points to an opposing rusher in two of the past four games — Adrian Peterson (17.1), Nick Chubb (16.2). And it's not like the Texans completely shut down the enemy RB in the remaining two games either, ceding at least 9.3 PPR points to Dion Lewis (11.2) and Marlon Mack (9.3).
Considering McGuire averaged 4.2 yards per touch last week. Plus, the fact that Crowell is out and Cannon is banged up, I fully expect the Jets to feature McGuire for the second-straight game, which means he could again see close to 20 touches. Even in a terrible matchup, I believe McGuire could put up at least 10 PPR points if he is given the lion's share of the workload. After all, since the weather isn't expected to be the greatest and the fact that they are home is all the more reason why the Jets must employ a ground and pound philosophy if they want a chance to win the game. They must keep Deshaun Watson on the sideline. Otherwise, it will be a long afternoon at the Meadowlands. While McGuire holds back-end RB2 upside for Week 15, he is very much opportunity-dependent.
Ito Smith
ESPN Start-Percentage: 4.0%
While Ito Smith is the RB2 in Atlanta, he out-touched a struggling — and likely out the door this offseason — Tevin Coleman in each of the past two games by margins of 14-to-11 and 8-to-7. The upside rookie had also out-gained the floundering vet by marks of 22-to-11 and 74-to-41. Although the totals look pretty bad, Smith's Week 14 74 total-yard effort was the most yards-from-scrimmage by a Falcons rusher since Week 11. Let's face it, Smith exploited a plus matchup against the Packers and will look to build off of his uplifting outing on Sunday in another favorable tilt with the Cardinals.
Although Arizona's defense had played well at times this season, their strength is in the secondary led by Patrick Peterson. Ther Achilles heel, however, is continuing the run, which bodes well for Smith's Week 15 outlook. While yielding the third-most fantasy points to enemy RBs at a 25.1 FPPG rate, the Arizona defense is also giving up 40.9 percent more fantasy points above the 24.-point league average to RBs in the past three games.
In the aforementioned three-game time period, the Cardinals have surrendered at least 11.8 PPR points to the opposition's top-scoring RB — Austin Ekeler (26.3), Aaron Jones (15.2) and Zach Zenner (11.8). Smith is an opportunity-needy Flex option in deeper Fantasy formats for Week 15 who might need to snap his five-game scoreless streak to return value. But considering what's going on with Coleman — it looks like Atlanta wants to see if Smith is the guy in case of the likely event Coleman takes a lucrative contract elsewhere — Smith should get every opportunity to be productive.
Week 15 WR Fantasy Sleepers
Curtis Samuel
ESPN Start-Percentage: 23.6%
While D.J. Moore is emerging as the WR1 in Carolina, Curtis Samuel is quietly making some noise of his own. In fact, in five of his past six games since Week 9, Samuel has finished with at least 12.0 PPR points — 19.8, 5.9, 16.2, 12.2, 15.6, 12.0. During that timespan, Samuel has caught at least four targets for 80 yards or scored a touchdown in 5-of-6 games and in four straight. He is the WR17 with 80 PPR points since Week 9. Samuel will look to extend his hot streak in a favorable home matchup with the Saints in a game that holds a 51-point over/under on Monday night.
Facing a Saints defense that has yielded the most fantasy points to enemy WRs at a 29.6 FPPG rate, Samuel could go off. And while the New Orleans defense has appeared to have tightened up of late, they are still giving up 21.2 percent more fantasy points to WRs above the 33.1-point NFL average in the past three games. With Marshon Lattimore expected to be locked on D.J. Moore and Devin Funchess, Samuel could carve up Eli Apple and the Saints in the slot, a spot at which Samuel has lined up 23.6 percent of the time in 2018.
Although Samuel had received limited opportunities at times this season, he has drawn at least seven targets in three of his past four games and 28 total in that time period — 7, 2,11,8. The No. 2 ranked wideout in fantasy points per pass-route (0.69) and No. 6 ranked in fantasy points per target (2.43), Samuel is an opportunity-dependent Flex option for Week 15. Samuel has rushed six times for 76 yards and two TDs this season, which raises is floor if the Panthers elect to run some gadget plays this week. And since they'll likely need to pull a rabbit out of their hat to beat the Saints, it would shock me if Samuel wasn't heavily involved in the gameplan.

Sterling Shepard
ESPN Start-Percentage: 17.4%
With Odell Beckham Jr. ruled out for his second straight game with a thigh/ quad injury, Sterling Shepard is once again on track to handle the WR1 duties for the Giants. In fact, in last week's win over the Redskins with Beckham out, Shepard caught 2-of-6 targets for 17 yards and a score. Good for 9.7 PPR points. If Shepard hauled in one more target, he would have hit the double-digit point plateau. I expect him to accomplish that feat this week against the Titans.
Facing a Titans defense surrendering the 11th most fantasy points to WRs at a 25.3 FPPG rate, Shepard could be in line for one of his most productive outings of the year despite drawing the 41st ranked CB Logan Ryan in coverage. While Ryan has played well in 2018, he is coming off of a game in which he was lit up by Dede Westbrook for 21.8 points in the slot, which is where Shepard primarily lines up with or without OBJ active. Shepard has played 55.8 percent of his 2018 snaps in the slot.
Quietly the 20th ranked wideout in red zone target share (24.7) with 18 targets — he saw three red area targets last week — Shepard is bumped into the WR2 tier with scoring upside this week with Beckham out. The Titans have given up at least 16.8 PPR points to the top-scoring enemy wideout in 9-of-13 games this season. I expect that trend to continue this week with Shepard. I'm starting him confidently in Week 15.
Dante Pettis
ESPN Start-Percentage: 12.9%
Dante Pettis has been sensational in his past three games since Week 12. Combining for a 12/255/4 stat line on 21 targets, Pettis also drew exactly seven targets in each contest. In each of his past three games since Week 12, Pettis has finished with 17.7, 29.7 and 13.9 PPR points and is the WR6 with 61.3 PPR points in that time span. And although Marquise Goodwin's presence must be accounted for, it seems like Pettis is Nick Mullins' top pass-catching target not named George Kittle. In last week's win over Denver — the only game Goodwin has been active since Pettis' emergence — Pettis out0targeted the pseudo WR1 7-to-2.
Entering his upcoming matchup with the Seahawks, Pettis will look to build off of his recent string of success. Not only is the Seattle defense allowing the 13th most fantasy points to WRs at a 24.3 FPPG rate, but they were also lit up by Pettis in their last meeting for a 5/129/2 stat line on seven targets back in Week 13. Finishing 29.7 PPR points, Week 13 was clearly Pettis' breakout game.
And although the Seahawks were able to contain the Vikings' passing attack last week, both Adam Thielen and Stefon Diggs managed to accumulate at least 12.1 PPR points. It is safe to say that even if the Seahawks are able to shut down the 49ers passing game this time around, Pettis still has a pretty safe floor. But since Mullins and Pettis went off against the Seahawks on the road, one would have to think they should be productive in a home matchup only two weeks later.
Facing a Seahawks defense that has allowed nine different WRs to total at least four receptions for 60 yards or a TD since Week 10, Pettis holds fringe WR2 upside for Week 15. Expecting to draw the 108th ranked CB Tre Flowers in coverage, Pettis is poised to further separate himself as the 49ers ROS WR1.
Dede Westbrook
ESPN Start-Percentage: 11.1%
There aren't many positives to take away from Jacksonville's 2018 season, but if there is one, Dede Westbrook comes to mind. In a crowded wide receiver corps, Westbrook has begun to emerge as the Jaguars' top pass-catching option. While he's flashed at times this season, he's played exceptionally well in two of his past three games. Aside from a 5.4-point clunker back in Week 13 against the Colts, Westbrook put up 17.7 PPR points on a 3/44/1 stat line in Week 11 against Buffalo and 21.8 PPR points on a 7/88/1 line last week against the Titans. In his past three games since Week 11, Westbrook has drawn 19 targets and developing a rapport with Cody Kessler.
In his upcoming matchup with the Redskins, Westbrook should once again shine. Not only are the Redskins yielding the sixth-most fantasy points to enemy WRs at a 26.3 FPPG pace, but with Quinton Dunbar out, Westbrook is in line to draw the 74th ranked CB Greg Stroman in the slot. Since Stroman is a tremendous downgrade from Dunbar, Westbrook should once again be the most productive wideout on the reeling Jags. Facing a Redskins defense that is surrendering 25.6 percent more fantasy points to WRs above the 33.1-point NFL average in the past three games — they've surrendered seven TDs to rival WRs in that time period — Westbrook is a fine Flex option with back-end WR2 upside for Week 15 if he scores.
Week 15 TE Fantasy Sleepers
Chris Herndon
ESPN Start-Percentage: 4.8%
While Chris Herndon hasn't scored since Week 8, he has still managed to accumulate at least 10.2 PPR points in his past five games without a score. In fact, while he was stifled in tough matchups with the Bills (6.4), Titans (5.1) and the Bills again (2.4), Herndon exploited the favorable ones against the Dolphins (10.2) and Patriots (12.7). Moreover, in that five-game timespan, Herndon has drawn target totals of 4,4,8,6,2 and very much remains an emerging part of a young offense.
In his upcoming matchup with the Texans, I believe Herndon will snap his five-game scoreless streak. Although the Texans defense is amongst one of the NFL's best, they have been extremely forgiving to the enemy tight end. Surrendering 9.1 FG to rival TEs, the Houston defense is yielding the eighth-most points to the position.
However, in the past three games, Houston's defense has been exceptionally bad, allowing at least 13.2 fantasy points to the opposition's top-scoring TE twice — Rob Gronkowski (14.6), Anthony Firsker (13.2) — while only containing Charles Clay (1.6) last week. Facing a Houston defense that has yielded an 11/142/2 stat line to enemy TEs since Week 12, Herndon is primed to account for the fifth double-digit PPR-point outing of his rookie season. Herndon is a top-end TE2 with scoring upside for Week 15.
Anthony Firsker
ESPN Start-Percentage: 7.8%
With Jonnu Smith out for the rest of the season with a knee injury, Anthony Firsker has emerged (out of nowhere) as the Titans' top pass-catching tight end. In each of his past four games, Firsker has drawn at least three targets and hauled in at least three passes for 27 yards while adding a touchdown in a tough Week 13 matchup with the Jets and scoring at least 9.2 PPR points twice in that timespan — 7.4 v. Colts, 9.2 v. Texans, 13.2 v. Jets, 5.7 v. Jaguars.
With so many injuries and so much uncertainty at the tight end position at this time of the year, you can do a lot worse than Firsker entering a quality matchup on the road against the Giants. Not only is the New York defense surrendering the 17th most fantasy points to rival TEs at a 7.4 FPPG pace, but they are also giving up 27.2 percent more fantasy points above the 12.2-point NFL average to TEs in the past five games — George Kittle (17.3), O.J. Howard (12.8), Zach Ertz (22.1), Adam Shaheen (8.5) Vernon Davis (7.1).
Moreover, the Giants have allowed the previously-mentioned TEs to catch a combined 32/337/2 stat line on 40 targets since Week 10. If Firsker receives the opportunity, he should produce in a must-win home encounter making him a middling TE2 with scoring upside for Week 15.[the_ad id="82129″][the_ad id="82132″]

Baths Talks New "Darker and More Introverted" LP, Sets Out on North American Tour
Published Feb 11, 2011Californian native Will Wiesenfeld is in his early 20s, but already counts beat purveyors like Flying Lotus and Daedelus as contemporaries thanks to the breakout success of Cerulean, his 2010 debut as Baths. Looking to keep his streak going, Baths has embarked on a lengthy headlining tour across North American, but as Wiesenfeld explained in a recent Exclaim! interview, that isn't stopping him from plotting his Cerulean follow-up.
Because of his busy touring schedule, Wiesenfeld likely won't be able to get cracking on his next proper Baths album until June, with a release tentatively planned for 2012. Still, he already has certain sound and approach in mind.
"I'm thinking it's going to be much darker and more introverted," he explains, adding, "I think Cerulean was a little easier than I might have liked to go with music. It was sort of like I built it as a first-impression album so I didn't experiment as deeply as I think I normally do when I record music... I did it because I knew that if I made an album that was much more experimental as a first album, it wouldn't do anything for me -- I would be in the same sort of territory as two years ago, looking to try and make a name for myself. So I made it very accessible on purpose."
As Wiesenfeld continues, it becomes apparent that his musical decisions are calculated with the utmost confidence. "This is my 22nd recording or album. I'm very comfortable with myself and the way I make music, that's never been a problem," he explains, leading the potential pressures of a sophomore record to hold no weight against him. "Regardless of what I do for the next album, I know it's going to be the best thing I can do. So even if it's critically not well received, I'm still going to be comfortable with it."
First off, however, Wiesenfeld is gearing up for his tour. He plans to fill the headliner role by keeping his energy up in the performances. "Right now it's just me by myself with a computer and a MIDI controller and I'm singing. But it's very physical, I'm very present, and that's sort of the whole point," he explains. "It's kind of limiting so I have to be all those aspects of the performance... I'm able to remain actively involved in the performance and there's a sort of feedback loop between the audience and myself. They're enjoying it, and then I enjoy the show more, and then me enjoying it more means they enjoy it more, etc."
Another thing inspiring Wiesenfeld to keep Baths in top shape are the supporting acts, Braids and Star Slinger. "On some tours it's weird with opening acts," he says, adding, "I would go out and see a show, it was always like you're nervous about the opening acts and they're not that great but this is 1,000 percent solid, all through the night. I'm so, so excited about being a part of the tour and the bands that decided to open for me."
All of Baths' upcoming tour dates with Braids and Star Slinger are available below. To coincide with the shows, Baths will be releasing a seven-inch with the previously unreleased songs "The Nothing" and "Nightly, Daily" on March 1 via Anticon. A digital version of the EP will also include the song "Sleepless." Check out "The Nothing" below.

'True champions for Christ'
GREENVILLE, S.C. (BP) -- In 1974, I was working as a young sports writer for the Anderson Independent and was given the assignment to do a full-page feature on Bobby Richardson, head coach of the University of South Carolina's baseball team. It was my first big story, and I enjoyed interviewing the former New York Yankee second baseman.
The Gamecocks were preparing for their first-ever NCAA baseball tournament appearance. Richardson had built a mediocre program into a national contender in four years. His strong and public commitment to Christ distinguished him from most other coaches. During Richardson's tenure at Carolina, Ed Young, then pastor of Columbia's First Baptist Church, was chaplain of the baseball team.
My wife and I recently spent a day with Bobby and Betsy Richardson. They continue to live busy lives. The phone rings every few minutes, more than 50 pieces of mail come every week with requests for autographs, etc., and they are continually asked to speak or appear at various functions. It is amazing. He retired from the Yankees at age 31 and will turn 81 in August. To say they are still active would be an understatement.
We began our day with Betsy leading us in prayer. Bobby and I attended a men's monthly luncheon in Sumter, where a speaker shared the Word of God and various prayer requests were received. People in his hometown call him Coach, but Betsy continues to call him Robert. She pointed out that, over the years, "Robert treated everyone the same. He would give time to anybody and has always been a giving person." Her husband, in turn, spoke in glowing terms of Betsy's role as a wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. "Most of all," he said, "she is a faithful witness to our Lord."
He won the last of his five Gold Glove awards in 1965. It wasn't until 2010 that a Yankees second baseman won that award again.
He has personally led many people to faith in Christ, including many of his Yankee teammates. He has spoken at the funeral services of many teammates, including Roger Maris, Mickey Mantle, Steve Hamilton (who named his son after Richardson and accepted Christ in their home), Enos Slaughter, Bill Schrown, Clete Boyer, manager Ralph Houk, Bob Turley and others. He also spoke at the funeral services of former Gamecock standouts Hank Small and Gary Hancock.
He had a relatively brief but exceptional professional career in Major League Baseball and used that platform to be a bold witness for Christ. He said, "I always tried to live my life in a way that I hoped would cause my teammates to be drawn to my Savior." However, he said he "shuddered" that some of his teammates may have gotten the wrong impression. He and shortstop Tony Kubek were roommates on the road and were nicknamed the "milkshake twins" because of their clean living.
Mickey Mantle once told Betsy he could live as good as Bobby. Richardson says he wanted his teammates to know that "the source of my strength was Jesus, not a religion or self-discipline."
Bobby and Betsy do not hold themselves up as a perfect couple, and they freely share about their struggles. However, they have remained faithful to God and each other for over 60 years.
Richardson concluded his book, "Impact Player," with these words: "When accounts of my life are written, I hope two things will be said of me. First, that I played baseball in a way that made my team better. Second, and more important, that I lived my life in a way that drew others to my Savior."
I began my article about Bobby Richardson in 1974 with these words: "In short, he is a winner." Forty-two years later, I would not change that assessment but simply add that he is "a man of proven consistency and loyal faithfulness." He has fought the good fight of faith, and his race is not finished yet. Bobby and Betsy are both true champions for Christ.

This recent few days has been quite hectic. Seminars, previews, meetings – seems never ending and there are still so much to do in the office. The schedule looks something like this:
Monday – Finance off site meeting at Hilton Sentral
Tuesday – Shortcuts Forum 2005 at the KL Performing Arts Centre
Wednesday – Dialogue session with the Ministry of Finance at Putrajaya, then the "Seven Swords" Preview at GSC 1-Utama
Thursday – "Gol & Gincu" preview at GSC 1-Utama
Friday (tomorrow) – three meetings, two of which are off-site
Saturday – two meetings
It's quite a tough week, plus there are so many things that are due and is utterly urgent – tax filing deadline, statutory financial statements filing deadline, etc. etc.
It is a miracle that I can still find some time to post on this blog although I have just done the following:
Back from work at about 8pm, took bath, ate dinner, watched "Sin City", work on the 10 year financial forecast and business plan which is due tomorrow, and now posting blog entries.
I intended to actually comment on the Shortcuts Forum a bit on this posting today and I do have something to say about it. I also wanted to talk about Tsui Hark's "Seven Swords" and Bernard Chauly's "Gol & Gincu" but I feel that my mind is shutting down.
Maybe I'll just go wind down now with a shot of whiskey, read a chapter of that Murakami novel and then hopefully to be able to sleep after that.
Will talk about the Forum and the movies in the next post….
