TEAM (YEAR PURCHASED): Baltimore Orioles (1993)
COMPLEX SAYS: Angelos is a Baltimore native, so you figure he'd put on for his city when he took over the local team. Not really. During his tenure, the Orioles have made the playoffs twice and had 14 losing seasons. When the Washington Nationals came into town, Pete complained they would take away from his "fanbase," and guess what? The Nationals just hired fan favorite, Davey Johnson, who was the last manager to lead the Orioles to the playoffs before being forced out by Angelos in 1997. Oh yeah, did we mention that '97 was the same year Johnson won the AL Manager of the Year Award? This shit is for the birds...

Project Description
For Elizabeth Grace and Marc Tremblay, giving through the Ottawa Community Foundation has always been something of a family affair. First introduced to the concept by Elizabeth's sister Anne – a former Foundation employee – the couple established the Grace-Tremblay Family Fund in 2005. Earlier on, Anne had also recruited their father to volunteer his time and expertise as editor of the Community Foundation's annual report at the onset of his retirement.
"It was Anne who really encouraged all of us to get involved with giving back to the community in this way," says Elizabeth. "Even though Marc and I were both at the beginning of our public service careers, she helped us to see that you don't have to be a millionaire to make a difference. Donating through the Community Foundation also offered us the flexibility to start out slowly and gradually build our fund into something more substantial over time."
Growing up and now raising their family in Ottawa's bilingual downtown community is particularly important to both Elizabeth and Marc, and they've always drawn upon that cultural context in deciding how best to fulfill their charitable objectives. From the start, the couple set out the purpose of their fund to support Francophone interests in Ottawa, including social services, education, arts and culture. They have also used it to help newcomers to the community through French language training and cultural integration.
"New immigrants face countless challenges upon arriving in Canada," says Marc, "and for those coming from such areas as North Africa and Haiti who don't speak English, those difficulties are compounded. This is our way of investing in the future of our community while supporting the development of Francophone culture within Ottawa's growing immigrant population."
Over the years, the goals of their fund have been well served through the provision of grants to support child and youth programming at the Lowertown Community Resource Centre, along with funding a school breakfast and lunch program, a French theatre festival, and providing long-term support of an international humanitarian aid project in Peru organized by CÉGEP de l'Outaouais.
"The staff at the Foundation have always been so helpful with matching our interests to the needs in the community," says Marc. "They've been able to connect us to organizations and programs we might never have known existed otherwise. And when we wanted to lend urgent support to the Haitian refugees who arrived here after the earthquake, they made it happen in the fastest and most efficient way possible. In addition, with the Foundation's expert guidance of our family fund, we feel that our charitable donations will have a more sustainable and lasting impact on the community in the long term."
"We both feel so grateful and fortunate to have the opportunities we've had to go to school and prosper here in Ottawa," says Elizabeth. "It's a great privilege for us to be able to focus on philanthropy at this stage in our life, and to share something with our children that will grow and reflect our family values. Even if it's not a huge amount, it's fun and truly rewarding to be in a position to give something back to the community in which you live."

How does a siren work?
askpari ♦ September 16, 2012 ♦ Leave a comment
A siren is a kind of whistle which makes a loud noise as air is blown through holes in a spinning cylinder or disk. It is a wailing noise
When a fire truck roars through the streets, its loud siren warms people to get out of the way. An ordinary air siren has two cylinders, one inside the other. The cylinder contain a number of holes.
When the fireman presses the button, an electric motor spins the inner cylinder and air is pushed through the holes. When the holes in the inner cylinder are lined up with the holes in the outer cylinder, puffs of air escape and cause vibrations.
When the vibrating air (sound waves) reach our ears, you hear the familiar ooooooOOOOOOEEEEEEeeeeee noise of the siren. The faster the inner cylinder spins, the greater number of puffs of air, and the louder the siren. A newer kind of siren makes its wailing sound electronically. It does not have a moving parts like the older types. – Dick Rogers

Fraudster posing as a cosmetic surgeon gave bogus injections to patients in the UK
A British woman told how Matteo Politi injected her with lip fillers after he conned her using snaps of him in operating theatres
A FAKE cosmetic surgeon nicked over ops in Romania also practised here, it has emerged.
Matteo Politi, 38, posed as a Brit medic for at least ten procedures there — despite never finishing high school.
Now a UK woman has told how he gave her lip jabs after conning her with snaps of him in op theatres. Personal trainer Melek Stevens, 39, who met him at a London gym, said yesterday: "He spent half an hour giving me injections in my home.
"He left with £200, saying my looks would improve dramatically. But it made no difference.
"I never saw him again. I feel a fool. I'm sure I'm not the only one he worked on in London.
"I'm lucky I didn't get an infection that could have ruined my looks or even killed me. He deserves punishment."
The Italian is feared to have worked here under the alias Matthew Mode. A LinkedIn profile claims he ran a clinic.
Checks show he lived in Stratford, East London, in late 2017.
He fled to Romania after reportedly being convicted of ID theft in Italy in 2011.
Using fake papers, he worked in four hospitals and gave lectures in capital Bucharest. Staff grew wary when he struggled to don gloves or wash hands properly before ops. He was seized trying to flee to Hungary.
The Care Quality Commission, which regulates the UK industry, will probe and pass details to the General Medical Council.
It said: "The suggestion he may have worked here is a concern. We're making enquiries."

Researchers say that taking malaria medication inappropriately results into resistance to drugs.
Malaria is caused by parasitic protozoans which affect humans.
The deadly disease causes symptoms that include fever, dizziness, vomiting, and headache. In severe cases it can cause yellow skin, seizures and death.
The disease is mostly found in the tropical zone because of the favourable breeding conditions.
In Rwanda, the highest prevalence of malaria is in Ngoma, Bugesera, Kayonza and Rwamagana districts in Eastern Province, and in the Southern Province districts of Huye, Nyanza, Kamonyi and Ruhango, according to the Ministry of Health.
Dr Aimable Mbituyumuremyi, the Director of Malaria Prevention Division at Rwanda Biomedical Centre, said some of the pesticides used to kill mosquitoes are no longer effective because the mosquitoes have become resistant to them.
He associates it with the rising malaria prevalence since 2012.
The plasmodium also develops resistance to a certain drug if they are not taken as instructed by medical personnel, he said.
''Not following medical prescriptions while taking drugs makes them lose immunity towards the microbes, and therefore, cannot be effective," he said.
Dr Mbituyumuremyi adds that it's possible that one becomes resistant to the drugs due to continued inappropriate administration.
Aline Uwimana, the director of Medicine in the Division of Malaria Prevention at RBC, said every two years, they conduct a study to see if the used medications against malaria still have their full potential to effectively kill plasmodium.
Uwimana said even before introducing malaria medication in the country, it is tested to see if they are worth consumption.
Level of effectiveness
"There are different steps through which a certain type of medicine is tried before it is approved for use. It is tested in four phases, first in the laboratory to see if it's effective, and then on some animals to see its potential," she said.
It is also checked for some side effects like harming the liver and other organs, and then it is applied to a small group of patients with malaria to see if their bodies react positively to the drug, she explained.
Researchers then check if the drug is able to kill all microbes in the blood before being used freely on patients, she said.
Uwimana said some medicines get replaced if research shows it has lost its potential to cure.
"Many adults have used a medicine called Chroloquine which in 2000 was replaced because it had lost capacity to cure after our study showed that only one patient among four could be cured by it. We have standards set by World Health Organization that we follow to measure if a certain medicine has to be replaced or not. When a drug cures at 95 per cent, it's accepted to be used.
However, when it falls to 90 per cent, it's time to think of ways to replace it,'' she said.
Chroloquine was replaced by Amodiaquine Facidal, which was also replaced in 2006 with artemether/lumefantrine, also known as Coartem, which is still being used today.
Safe drugs
When people abuse the prescriptions given to them, the microbes become resistant and can be passed from an individual to an entire community and beyond.
For example, if someone suffering from malaria doesn't take the prescribed drugs efficiently, the microbes in their blood reduce and when the vector bites another person, they get resistant malaria, which can't be cured by the same drug, he said.
"If a patient is given drugs for three days, which they are supposed to take four times a day, and they instead take it twice a day and give the other two tablets to their colleague who doesn't want to go to the hospital, both of them will not be cured and the microbe will develop resistance to the drug," he said.
Uwimana said that if people suffer from malaria or from other diseases, they have to take medications prescribed by the approved health professionals, instead of buying them on their own.
"Malaria's current medication, for instance, is still safe to use because its effectiveness is at 98 per cent. The drugs we provide to people are trusted and safe. We conduct trials every two years and the quality units available at Rwanda Drug, Consumables and Equipment Central Procurement Agency (CAMERWA) are only safe for use," she added.
In terms of safety in medical stores, she said they make sure the medications are stored in a proper place to avoid damages and to preserve their quality.

1 review for All Natural Deodorant • Girls
Only logged in customers who have purchased this product may leave a review.
This completely natural, aluminium-free deodorant stick is gentle and effective. Corn starch and Kaolin absorb moisture. Organic shea butter soothes and moisturises, while sweet-smelling and mighty medicinal and essential oils like neem, peppermint and niaouli, knock out odour-causing bacteria. To stay smelling super fresh, reapply before stressy events and sport.
Size: 65 g / 2.29 oz
100% Natural
Vickijfc –
Brilliant product. My 12 yr old hates the usual deodorants as they are wet & sticky so keeping her sweet smelling was proving a challenge. First weekend of using this one & it was certainly put to the test with a hot, busy weekend finished with a 2.5hr inflatable assault course session and she was still fresh as a daisy at the end… so yes a brilliant brilliant product. We love it.
Only logged in customers who have purchased this product may leave a review.
If you wear deodorant every day or only every now and again, this natural deodorant will keep you smelling fresh and be super-gentle on sensitive underarm skin. We've replaced the harsh chemicals and pore cloggers most conventional deodorants use, with natural and skin-friendly ingredients. So, while our deodorant will absorb some moisture, it's not an anti-perspirant. Yep, you will sweat. But sweating is natural – and good for you! And, thanks to our powerful, odour-bashing ingredients, you'll stay smelling sweet all day. Want to know more about why natural deodorants are best?
A natural, aluminium-free deodorant stick.
At the beginning of the day, gently smooth onto clean armpits. It goes on creamy – rub it in if you like – and dries to a powder. For extra freshness, reapply before exercise and stressful events.
100% made with love. 0% parabens, phthalates, sulphate, and more
We worked hard to make this deodorant 100% natural. It contains no unnecessary hardeners, so only push it up a couple of millimetres at a time to use. The creamy consistency may also change with temperature fluctuation. In temperatures over 30 degrees it will soften a little (but it will re-harden as soon as it's back in the cool).
Corn Starch – a clean, moisture and sweat-absorbing powder that's super-gentle on delicate, young skin
Neem Oil – An anti-bacterial, anti-fungal big gun, rich in healing vitamin C and E. It's been used throughout history as a serious, medicinal oil
Rosemary – A classic, do-everything oil – anti-septic, anti-microbial, stimulating, astringent…
Peppermint – a healing essential oil that will speed up your skin's recovery time. (Bonus: it smells good!).
Kanuka – An anti-bacterial powerhouse, harvested in New Zealand, that also nourishes and soothes.
Kaolin – a gentle, super-absorber of moisture and oil. It's also a great detoxifier; drawing impurities from the skin and neutralizing them.

- Boost front and rear. (15x110 F) (12x148 R)
- Plus (or midfat) wheels. 27.5" (29er capable)
- Fox Float 34 Performance Series (not the Rhythm Series they put on the newer models)

Yes I posted this bike in January, I thought I had it sold but the buyer backed out. Actually he never came back to pick it up (If your out there, I still have your deposit money).
I have since torn it down to bare frame, coated the inside with boiled linseed oil (prevents rusting) chased the BB threads, re-assembled and ridden it 3 times in the last month.
Option 1 - ($1,500) - OEM just like the specs on the above link. Tires will be BRAND NEW
Option 2 - ($1800) - Same bike as OEM with following "brand new take off" upgrades - M-7000 (11 Speed) SLX shifter, cable, derailleur, XT Cassette 11-46, SLX Cranks with Shimano 32t chainring, Rockshox Reverb 100mm Dropper 30.9 shimmed to 31.6 (external routing with right hand remote mounted to left side) KMC 1x11 chain.
Option 3 - ($2,000) - Same bike as OEM with the following "3 rides old" upgrades - M-8000 (11speed) XT shifter, cable, derailleur, Sunrace CSMS 11-40 Cassette, Raceface Chester cranks with Absolute Black 26t Narrow Wide, Rockshox Reverb 100mm Dropper 30.9 shimmed to 31.6 (external routing with right hand remote mounted to left side) KMC 1x11 chain, Maxxis Highrollers tubeless with Stans.
This bike is cherry save for a few small scratches on the bottom of the chainstays. I am selling it because I got a 2017 model (that's where all the parts are from in option 2) and the new replacement droppouts (black) from Jamis have less "slide" than the old ones (silver) and the old ones are hard to find.

- Augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR) headset sales are forecast to surge at an 88% yearly growth rate until 2022, when they will reach 53.1 million units, per a study by the International Data Corporation (IDC) that looked at standalone and tethered devices. The researcher predicted that sales will jump 31% to 4.2 million units in 2018 from a year earlier.
- IDC pushed back its estimates for AR headset growth as smartphone and tablets continue to be the most popular way for people to experience the technology, which overlays digital images on a real background seen through a smartphone or headset. Commercial applications for AR will be the primary driver of headset sales for the next couple of years, while consumer-centric AR apps will focus on smartphones and tablets.
- Consumer adoption of AR/VR headsets will start to accelerate as more device makers enter the market and the resulting competition helps to drive down prices, per IDC. Low-cost screenless headsets that need to be physically attached to a smartphone to work will gradually lose market share as sales decline at a 1% annualized rate from 2018 to 2022.
IDC's revised forecast for AR/VR headset growth acknowledges that smartphones and tablets are the primary driver of AR technology, and likely will be for the foreseeable future. Since the popularity of Pokémon Go two years ago, mobile apps with AR have increasingly become a way for marketers to engage with mobile-first consumers, with big tech companies like Apple and Google creating software platforms to help developers create them more readily.
While AR headsets are forecast to have a growth rate of 214% a year, with projected sales of 21.6 million in 2022, the sale of AR headsets won't match the total volume of VR headsets, which are projected to jump from just 4 million this year to more than 31.5 million by 2022. VR adoption, however, will depend on declining prices for headsets that contain their own screens and processors, such as Facebook's Oculus Go, HTC's Vive Pro or Lenovo's Mirage Solo.
AR headset development has been sporadic in the past decade. Search giant Google in 2012 introduced a test version of Google Glass that was criticized for numerous bugs, $1,500 price tag, limited battery life and creepy ability to record people surreptitiously. Google in 2015 ended its Glass Explorer program and last year relaunched the product as Glass Enterprise Edition for workplace uses. Meanwhile, Apple — which this year purchased AR lens startup Akonia Holographics — is said to be developing an AR headset that will come to market as early as 2020 and have its own display and operating system. IDC expects AR headset sales to exceed 1 million a year by 2020, and then dramatically increase as more vendors enter the market.

The universe comprises of a good per centum of aged. Over the class of the subsequent 50 old ages, the portion of the aged is defined as those aged 65 old ages and over is expected to lift from seven per centum in of the entire population to 15 per centum ( United Nations, 2008 ) .
In states that are viewed as more developed as per the United Nation definition, this portion is projected to lift from 14 per centum to twenty seven per centum over the same period. The portion of the aged is expected to mount even more hurriedly in the less developed states, lifting from lone approximately 5 per centum of population in 2000 to 14 per centum in 2050 as per projection of the United Nations.
The quickly lifting Numberss of the ripening will be expected to hold a figure of major economic impacts globally ( Bloom & A ; Bhawalkar, 2004 ) . This consists of in the instance of developing states, an addition of the unmet fiscal demands of the aged ( Antolin and Suyker, 2006 ) . There is besides concern that an aging population would hold big impacts on wellness outgos, both private and public, with obvious effects for private outgos and public budgets ( Fuchs, 2006 ) .
The purpose of this paper is to measure what is known about the dealingss between ageing and wellness disbursement and bar ways in the hereafter wellness disbursement effects of an aged population. The first method, by foregrounding major facets in the addition of wellness disbursement associated to the old elderly, it would help, in the short-run, to steer contrivers to allow control animal trainers of the wellness system that can hold an impact on it. The 2nd method is that may lend by placing the information and methods that are needed for successful decrease of wellness disbursement associated to the ripening and for their sensibly accurate future vitamin E projection
Back land of the Study
Many surveies show that per individual disbursals are higher among the aged than the immature ( Alam 2001 ; Antolin and Suyker 2004 ; Bloom, Nandakumar and Bhawalkar 2001 ; Lloyd-Sherlock 2000 ; Mason Russo, 2007 ) . A recent survey shows that the ratio of per capita outgo in the population aged 65 old ages and over to per capita outgo in population of the non-elderly, ( Anderson and Hussey 2009 ) . A recent research in Sri Lanka besides suggests much is spent on the aged on a per capita footing ( Rannan, 2008 ) .
Healthcare disbursement on the aged have increased the GDP by 4 per centum per twelvemonth in latest decennaries. This disagreement is partly attributable to population alteration, with the figure of the aged turning about 1 per centum yearly faster than the non-elderly. The major factor, nevertheless, is the rapid addition of age specific outgo on wellness attention by the old elderly. Without a singular alteration in the costs of wellness attention, net incomes, or both, wellness outgo on the aged in 2020 is likely to be two to 3 times the gross available for all other points ( Fuchs, 2009 )
There is grounds that wellness attention disbursement per capita, for the elderly may be lifting at a higher rate than for the immature. For illustration, the ratio of the per capita disbursement of the aged to the non-elderly in the United States was 3.0 in 2008 ( Fuchs, 2009 ) . Cutler and Meara ( 2006 ) found out that annually growing of per-person outgo on the aged was about 8 per centum, significantly more than the jutting 5 percent annually rate of growing for the non-elderly. In add-on, the bing grounds from developed states and a limited set of developing states shows that non merely wellness disbursement per individual is lifting in age, but besides the rates of growing in per capita wellness outgo are greatest for the elderly.
Aging individuals should cover with turning load of functional symptom and disablement from chronic unwellnesss ( Erickson, 2010 ) . The elderly individuals have progressive rise in age specific decease rates and experience decrease in mensurable position and cognitive abilities such as decelerating of response clip and declined working capacity critical societal and emotional aid are lost as spouse, household and friends move off or decease given the general imperfect and chiefly irreversible aging. It is indispensable to derive an insight why more ageing people particularly the oldest do non finally succumb to desperation. How the aged individuals adjust and compensate for age related losingss in physical and mental consequences, what single and ecological factors permit them to optimise their capital to accomplish a genuinely consecutive old age, how can physician help the older people with accomplishment, intervention and advice, that prevent the age associated disease and diminution and that support healthy, fruitful ripening.
Harmonizing to Joshua M EL ( 2010 ) , state old aged with dementedness are hospitalized frequently for fortunes that primary care assignment may hold dealt with. The aged who endure from dementedness and reside in state countries are most likely than urban inhabitants to stop up hospitalized for state of affairss that may hold been prevented if improved outpatient attention were available near their rural scene. They found out that 13 per centum to a state of affairs in which primary attention was available on clip in an outpatient scene could hold reduced the call for a hospitalization.
The wellness of the aged demographic has been bettering since 1980s. However, unwellnesss such as fleshiness and diabetes are progressively common among the non elderly, and the taking to additions in disablement advocate that future Medicare donees may be less healthy than current 1s ( Goldman D. & A ; Shang B. , 2005 )
To derive penetration of the net impact of these tendencies on Medicare outgos, Goldman et 2005 ) used the theoretical account to come close the wellness of chance Medicare donees under 3 sets of premises. In set-up A, they projected the wellness of new receivers utilizing all the information existing, including the wellness of non aged ; this is the state of affairs the squad deemed most convincing. In set up B, they assumed that come ining Alliess could hold the same group of diseases and disablements as the healthy associates from the 1990s ; this set up assumes information about disease and disablement in non aged. In set up C, they assumed changeless betterment in the wellness status of the full againg population and of the come ining group ; this set up has the most complimentary premises for Medicare outgo.
The group found out that lower disablement ratesA doA bend into lower wellness attention costsA per donee. Under set up A, where the estimation uses informations about the wellness status of non-elderly, outgo is estimated to be 11,206 US dollars per donee in the twelvemonth 2030. In the more hopeful set up C, outgo per donee is 8 per centum lower at 10,275 US dollars.
Successful Aging
It is more fruitful to see successful aging beside more many dimensions and multiple spheres. The psychological characteristic of successful aging suggests processs that might be viewed as developmental. Successful ripening is much connected to the opportunity to carry through the developmental of aging. Erikson 's Stage theoretical account suggests that cardinal undertakings of aging are credence and declaration in one 's life. He explained it as a quandary between self-importance, unity and hopelessness, the challenge in to the aged is to accept one ego and one 's workss both bad and good to carry through a sense of psychological wellness fittingness and eventually credence of one 's life as one may hold in no other manner.
A How early bar can salvage significant sums of aged costs.
Harmonizing to a research conducted by Betsy ( 2010 ) , when many societal wellness clinics and primary attention providers are available, reduces state occupants ' the demand for a hospitalization. Although public process initiatives ever concentrate on helping aged individuals in topographic point for every bit extended as possible, those regulations present troubles for state dwellers if they have restricted entree to head, place wellness attention and forte services to help trade with their status. These research findings emphasize the demand to convey proper attention to medically underserved demographics to avoid dearly-won, evitable hospitalizations by offering better primary attention services nearer to place. ( Betsy & A ; Joshua,2010 )
Many are troubled that patient cost-sharing policies included in the Medicare Modernization Act might hold unintended wellness effects, if they decrease critical drug usage among the ripening. After 2 cost-sharing screen policies were introduced in twelvemonth 2002 and 2003, there was a decrease in anti-depressant launch amongst the ripening ( Philip et, 2010 ) .
Although these cost-containment guidelines may hold productively contained unimportant antidepressant usage, under intervention, non inessential drug usage, is by far the greater public wellness and public policy concern. Therefore, well-designed prescription medical specialty policies should be attached with intercessions to undertake under-treatment ( Amanda, 2009 ) .
Care for the aged with chronic wellness state of affairss can be really dearly-won. One manner to assist offer high-quality, cost-efficient attention to these individuals is by using a guided attention attack ( Bruce et, 2009 ) . This attention is provided by a group dwelling of a practice-based, specializer, Guided Care nurse who is employed with about three doctors and office staff. The purpose is to supply eight indispensable clinical services that are required about 60 % of the highest-risk elderly patients in a pattern. This imaginative attack to care improves wellness and cyberspaces nest eggs in wellness attention outgo.
Guided Care is a new signifier of attention bringing that tries to better attention for these aging individuals. At its centre is the undertaking of a registered and skilled nurse who is based in a most of import attention pattern and works with about three doctors to manage all dimensions of attention, back up household members, an facilitate community resources for aged patients with several chronic conditions ( Chad, 2009 )
Giddens J. & A ; Tanner E. , ( 2009 ) in their survey illustrated the function of the GC nurse ; inclusive how best to develop nurses to offer constituents of the Guided Care signifier. Based in the major attention pattern, a Guided Care nurse is anticipated to give complete attention to about 60 older patients who have wellness attention demands. A main constituent of this map is to supply wellness attention by moving as a connexion between aged and their nurses, the primary attention supplier, professionals, and different wellness attention organisations. Other clinical actions carried out by the nurse include the innovation of an evidence-based attention usher ( CG ) , patient rating, monthly monitoring, encouraging patient self-management, forming attention, preparation and support to nurses and measuring community resources.
The research workers analyzed the economic effect Guided Care ( CG ) has on wellness attention disbursals and nest eggs in a group of 55 bad patients in a span of 1 twelvemonth. Guided Care produced a net nest eggs of 75,000 US dollars. Two tierces of the sum was the result of decreased infirmary use. Harmonizing to the survey, these cost nest eggs are equal to do up for the disbursal of supplying General Care and the little addition in the specializer attention usage ( Leff et, 2009 ) .
Another topic is that aged undergoes more drug-related jobs, since they are more likely than non-elderly to take several prescription and nonprescription medicines. Pharmacists require effectual ways to detect medicine mistakes in this patient demographic so that inauspicious impacts, such as hospital admittance and decease, can be reduced ( Sarah et, 2009 ) .
Mental wellness unwellnesss, including intoxicant and drug maltreatment, are prevailing in aged. Yet merely a half of these people actively looks for intervention and employs mental wellness services. A new research has revealed that many ageds who suffer mental wellness diseases do non believe the demand for intervention ( Garrido et, 2009 ) . Those who recognize the demand for attention have a inclination of holding more symptoms of emphasis other chronic wellness state of affairss. Data was collected from a national sample of 1,339 aged individuals populating in the community.
When an person was recognized as acquiring mental wellness attention in the past one twelvemonth, they were questioned if they voluntarily sought the wellness attention. Those who had non were asked if they felt a call to run for out intervention for an emotional or drug abuse issue. The findings of research were that the prevalence and inhuman treatment of depression and intoxicant maltreatment in the sample. Participants were besides questioned if they had certain wellness state of affairs to make up one's mind the degrees of physical wellness and cognitive operation. Merely 7 per centum of the whole sample alleged a call for mental wellness attention in the cause the old twelvemonth. Among those who felt the demand, 83 % volitionally established services from either a chief attention. The staying 17 per centum perceived a call for mental wellness attention but all in vain. Those aged most likely to logic a call for attention tended to hold more terrible mental disease. They besides had back evidences of depression, emphasis, chronic physical unwellness, and substance maltreatment. alleged call for attention was less likely with age addition. The research was supported in portion by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality HRQ ( 2009 ) .
Chronic illness such as bosom disease, diabetes and a malignant neoplastic disease are expensive to handle. As a consequence, the comparatively little per centum of Medicare donees with such unwellnesss account for an imbalanced portion of Medicare outgo.
Economist Geoffrey et ( 2006 ) examined how 7 of the most prevailing chronic diseases influence mean life anticipation and wellness attention outgo among Medicare donees from old age until human death. The unwellnesss they focused on were diabetes, malignant neoplastic disease, high blood pressure, chronic clogging pneumonic disease, , coronary bosom disease and shot.
Chronic unwellnesss clearly have an consequence on both wellness attention costs and life anticipation. diminution in life anticipation ranges from 4 months for a receiver with high blood pressure to approximately 3 old ages for a receiver with diabetes or shot.
All of these unwellnesss increased annually wellness attention expenditures over the cost incurred by a similar individual without the unwellness. Chronic disease has comparable effects on Medicare disbursals, though the degree of costs is somewhat lesser ( Geoffrey et, 2006 ) .
There are two chief grounds why increasing disbursement are merely modestly dissimilar for those with and without the illness at age of 65 old ages. Many donees with no status by 65 old ages would develop it in wining old ages. Hence the economic nest eggs from better wellness at 65 old ages do non roll up for an indefinite period. In add-on, the costs incurred in the ageing life are important and chiefly unchanging in relation to ailment state of affairs or age. Expanding life by many old ages reduces the high cost suffered before decease, but they can non be evaded wholly under the current system of attention.
Most of these chronic unwellnesss are preventable or their weight can be reduced to a greater extent. Avoidance and testing for these conditions might be effectual wellness steps. However, these attempts will merely moderately cut down Medicare 's hereafter wellness attention outgo ( Geoffrey et, 2006 ) .
Research suggests that extinguishing any one unwellness will non significantly influence hereafter wellness attention disbursement ( Lakdawalla, 2009 ) . But overweight may be exclusion to this determination. If it is, so contending fleshiness might hold critical effects for Medicare since approximately to half of the United States demographic is corpulent. Overweight is expensive for Medicare, since it raises annually wellness attention costs but does non act upon lastingness and therefore decennary of old ages spent in the Medicare system ( LakdawallaA et, 2009 ) .
LakdawallaA et ( 2009 ) found no fluctuation in overall life anticipation between an corpulent aged and one of normal weight. Nevertheless, weight has a strong impact on the Numberss of disability- free old ages. The corpulent can expect merely 4 disability-free life old ages. They will utilize 40 % more clip disabled than their normal weight opposite numbers, who can anticipate about 7 old ages without disablement. Greater disablement saddle horses into a high wellness attention cost.
Medicare outgo on an fleshy person is 20 % higher than for the following nearby set, and 35 per centum higher than outgo on an person of normal weight. hence, Medicare could see a immense fiscal load as a consequence of the addition in obesity countrywide.
Although, Lakdawalla and his group argued that impacts of disablement from fleshiness, instead than raised costs, might be the more indispensable factor of the societal load of corpulence.
Whether handling fleshiness may take down medical outgo better wellness consequences depends on whether corpulence is accountable to the wellness differences between the corpulence and their normal opposite number. In instance a causal relationship, so forestalling or handling fleshiness in an person would return that single 's wellness attention outgo degree to that of a normal weight person.

Climbers Head Home After Everest Brawl With Sherpas
A clash between European climbers and Sherpas at 21,300 feet rattled the climbers and prompted them to cancel their ascent attempt.
A trio of European climbers involved in a high-altitude brawl with Nepalese guides on Mount Everest have cancelled their trip and and are to return from the Himalayas, climbing sources said Tuesday.
Famed mountaineers Ueli Steck of Switzerland and Simone Moro of Italy, accompanied by British alpine photographer Jonathan Griffith, claimed they were attacked by an "out-of-control mob" on Saturday.
An American eyewitness said the Europeans had ignored a request from Nepalese guides to wait during their ascent, and dislodged ice that hit the Sherpas below, sparking a "terrifying" clash at 6,500 meters (21,300 ft).
7 Highest Peaks on 7 Continents
"The three are planning to return to Kathmandu on Wednesday," Mingma Sherpa of Cho-Oyu Trekking, the company that organized the Europeans' expedition, said, adding they would likely travel by helicopter.
Moro told PlanetMountain, a mountaineering website, that the "violence killed our climbing dream."
"We also received an official apology from all the Sherpa," Moro told the website, adding that hundreds of summit hopefuls camped on the mountain were all "shocked and aware" of the violence that took place.
A mediation meeting between the European climbers and the Sherpas concluded successfully on Monday afternoon, according to a Nepalese government official.
An agreement signed by over a dozen foreign and Nepalese climbers at the meeting and seen by AFP said the parties "commit not to go into conflict or use violence" and that such violence has no place in mountaineering.
10 Amazing Treks That Don't Take Much Time
Moro had been attempting to scale the 8,848-metre (29,029-foot) mountain for the fifth time by a new "undisclosed" route without supplementary oxygen.
In a statement released on Monday, the Italian said it was "highly unlikely" that any ice had fallen and hit the Nepalese Sherpas as a result of his team's maneuvers.
Punches flew in the thin mountain air and a gang of furious Nepalese pelted stones at the Europeans' tents in the Camp Two stopping point, according to the eyewitness and trekking sources who spoke to AFP.
"A small group of Westerners acted as a buffer between the out of control mob and the climbers, and they owe their lives to these brave and selfless people," said Moro's statement.
"The (European) climbers were told that by that night one of them would be dead and the other two they would see to later." Liz Hawley, an American journalist and renowned Everest historian, said that violent incidents on Everest were "very, very rare."
This year, the Guinness World Book of Records recognized Samantha Larson as the youngest female to have climbed the seven highest summits on each of the seven continents. She was 18 years 300 days. The mountaineering challenge of reaching the summit of these seven peaks was first achieved by Richard Bass on April 30, 1985. Since then, other adventurers have followed in his footsteps. Here are the seven summits they have conquered.
Carstensz Pyramid, Papua, Australia/Oceania Height: 16,023 feet
Vinson Massif, Antarctica Height: 16,067 feet
Mount Elbrus, Europe Height: 18,510 feet
Kilimanjaro, Africa Height: 19,340 feet
Mount McKinley, North America Height: 20,320 feet
Mount Aconcagua, South America Height: 22,841
Mount Everest, Asia Height: 29,035

"Look again, José, and you sleep alone for the rest of your life."
Once upon a time in a Mexican fishing village called Ajijic in the mountains south of Guadalajara, my housekeeper, Josefina, stopped sweeping the patio, leaned her hand-tied broom against the bougainvillea-covered casita wall, and nervously wiped her hands on her starched white apron, the apron with the colorful flowers embroidered in the corner.
In Spanish, she said shyly, "Señora, por favor, we make a request for the honor of you to come tomorrow to the confirmation of Fernando." Fernando is her youngest son, the one I tutor in English.
Arriving at church early the next day, I noticed that overnight, a fresh white paint had been applied to the front façade, but the side and rear walls remained as before, faded and peeling. I asked a passing friend, Tomás, about this curiosity. He shrugged. "Why waste pesos on paint for four walls, Señora, when the Bishop will see only the one in front?"
Tomás is the village Solver of Problems. He was awarded such a noble title because, when his aged mother, Maria, bought a stone house located at the corner of the local elementary school, she inadvertently inherited a terrible predicament: For decades, little boys had been relieving themselves on its cornerstone as they passed on their way to class each morning — a Rite of Passage, or what we might call a "guy thing." No one could recall the origin of this seriously overrated tradition.
Maria, whose ancient back had become as curved as a question mark, was very unhappy. Due to the acrid odor coming from the cornerstone, no one walking by would be able to enjoy the succulent smells emanating from her cocina window. Maria was well known throughout the village for her delicious chocolaté molé. No one had ever tasted any better molé than hers. It was devotion to her customers that had turned her hands into gnarly knots and it had become increasingly difficult to hold a spoon to stir the chocolaté.
Although she had learned to compensate by spinning the spoon between her wrists, she was now faced with a new problem. If passersby were unable to smell the wonderful spices and chocolaté cooking on the stove, no one would come in to buy molé. Without any income, she could not survive and would be forced to give up the little stone house and move in with her children. Though she loved all her children dearly, she did not want to move in with them. She turned to her eldest son, Tomás, to solve the dilemma.
Though they all loved her dearly, Maria's children did not want her to move in with them. Tomás assured his sainted mother that she soon would be free of the problem forever. He called upon his brothers and they worked into the night while Maria slept. The solution to Maria's problem was, to Tomás, a simple one: Into the stone, they carved a shrine to the Virgin of Guadalupé. From that moment on, the cornerstone was regarded as a sacred place, a place where a boy should cross himself and bow his head in passing (or get swatted by his mother). And that is how Tomás came to be the village Solver of Problems.
In the church plaza, I also saw Eduardo the policeman. Some time ago, Eduardo and three other policemen with hungry families walked across the street and reluctantly robbed the bank. Riddled with guilt, Eduardo went to confession, then returned to the station and consulted with the other men. They returned all the money to the bank and arrested themselves.
After a week the villagers went to the jail and begged the policemen to release themselves. Why? Because every single villager was desperately needed in the church to pray to the Virgin of Zapópan for a long overdue rain to fill their depleted lake so they would have fish to eat. Eduardo and his men happily obliged. 40 hours later, it rained for six straight days and nights.
I stood in the church plaza with Tomás and Eduardo on the day of Fernando's confirmation and we listened to a local band blaring military marches noisily anticipating the arrival of the Bishop from Guadalajara. The cheeks of the tuba player appeared ready to burst, even before his pants did. The florid bandleader faced his ill-dressed musicians, striving earnestly to keep the beat with a twig he used as a baton.
Clusters of men with nicotine-stained fingers leaned against the plaza's wrought iron fence. Some were engaged in arm-waving conversation, others were smoking small cigars, laughing softly, listening to the music. The sun bounced equally off their newly polished shoes and their newly polished hair.
Families bunched up in the doorway of the church, distracted by last-minute clothing adjustments. "Pablo, straighten your tie," said one mother. "Linda, the bow in your hair, it is falling out. Come here and I will fix it," said another. "Ay, where is that Manuel? He cannot be late today of all days," cried a distraught third. Babies were shifted to hips, toddlers to shoulders.
Inside the church, the pew I chose was near an uncurtained confessional, revealing the penitent within, a redheaded woman wearing an immodest red dress.
"Ay, did you hear that? That must be Lupe," whispered one waiting penitent to another. They knelt not a foot away from the woman whose confession was being enthusiastically overheard. "She is wise to confess, that one is," said the second, with a knowing look. "Everyone suspected her of as much."
Choir mistress Garcia strode down the center aisle, once-stylish gray dress flying out behind her, heels clicking on the marble floor, strands of black hair flying loose from the pins meant to contain it. "Mis amigos," she instructed, a benevolent drill sergeant, "you must move to the empty seats in the back. It is necessary to make room for the choir. To the rear, por favor." All rose and quietly drifted to the rear, like a receding tide. That is, all but two, who appeared unmoored, who could not keep up.
They were a pair of ancient women wearing black mantillas, gray heads bent, whiskery chins jutting, arms linked, rounded backs covered by black shawls, ankles swollen over shoe tops. They trudged on, clearly headed for the two empty seats beside me.
A third woman abruptly cut ahead of them. She was Lupe of the red dress.
"Move aside," Lupe hissed, clipping past the old ladies.
Squinting her eyes, Lupe pitched her purse expertly into the empty seat beside me, skimming the hair of the man in front, waking him. He rubbed his head and turned, glaring.
When the two old women shuffled up expecting to cram into the pew, Lupe blocked their entrance by shamelessly elbowing the first one and hip-bumping the second one into the aisle. "This is my seat," she snapped.
I rose and stepped into the aisle to make room, and the old ladies pushed in, and sat plumply down, cheek wrinkling grins of satisfaction lighting up their faces. "It is God's will for us to sit today," one whispered, sweet as honey, to Lupe, whose brows met in a furious "V."
Self-righteous onlookers stared at Lupe, seemingly pleased at her displacement. I got the feeling this was not her first encounter with irate churchgoers.
Since there were now no seats, I stood against the wall, but people in another pew squished together even tighter and nodded at me to join them causing the Quixote-thin gent in the end seat to now be completely compressed against the wall.
Hear Eyeballs Clicking
Hand fans were engaged in lacy combat with the high temperature. For some of the men, it rose even higher with the arrival of a nubile nymph in a white sweater. Although they managed to keep their heads facing front, I could almost hear their eyeballs clicking over to the aisle down which she was wafting. One wife said to her husband, "Look again José and you sleep alone for the rest of your life," punching him so hard he made an audible sound.
The flow of newcomers continued with the arrival of the children and their families. I scanned the crowd and caught sight of Fernando, seated with his brother and parents. He had been scrubbed to a glow with yet another layer of shine added to his black trousers by Josefina's iron. His parents were so proud of him that Mama Josefina could not stop smiling, and Papa Enrique's vest buttons strained to stay in their hand-finished holes. He is the only man I ever saw who could strut while sitting down.
The professional musicians appeared, one with a violin bow sticking out of his back pocket, the edge of a wrapped sandwich out of another. Behind them, in crisp dresses and Papa-large suits, came the girls and boys of the choir beckoned forward by Señora Garcia.
The church bell began to gong, startling a squalling baby quiet. As the neighborhood band outside slowly drifted into silence one horn at a time, the collective heads of the congregation turned to face the sun filled doorway and the crucifix silhouetted there. Strains of sacred music filled the church. Next came the priests holding ornate candlesticks, followed by the mitered Bishop who had come along and dusty distance for the ceremony.
At the conclusion of the Mass, members of the congregation turned to their neighbors shaking hands with everyone. Everyone except Lupe. Her neighbors had conspicuously turned their backs to her.
But wait! The two old ladies she had tried to exile approach. With brows arched and lips pursed, each extends a hand to Lupe, in as regal a manner as Queen Isabella must have once extended hers to be kissed. Could the celestial music heard earlier have created such forgiveness?
No, it wasn't the music. It's just another day in this village – any village anywhere in the paradise that is known as Mexico.

"Solving Ireland's housing crisis will require taking actions which conflict with the interests of private industry, for the sake of the wellbeing of people living and working in this state"
Labour Youth activist, Jake Murray, explains why Ireland's housing emergency can only be solved by the Left.
As Ireland lumbers through its multiple year housing crisis both the causes and solutions are a subject of much debate in all sectors of politics, and rightly so.
The facts however are (with few exceptions) not up for debate. Housing stocks both for sale and for rent are at their lowest in the history of the state. The state is currently paying out up to €142,000,000 euros in direct payments to private landlords through rent supplement. The waiting time for social housing can stretch into years.
This provides a stark background to two questions which dominate this conversation. How are prospective buyers, particularly first time buyers, supposed to save the amount required for deposits on a home purchase? How are those who are either unable or disinclined to purchase a home expected to afford accommodation within reasonable distance of their places of employment with rental prices skyrocketing and tenancy security plummeting?
These questions take on differing importance and urgency to different policy makers and members of the public but they are both rooted in the same key problem: supply.
Low supply, created by an anaemic post-crash private construction industry, a virtual abandonment of social housing construction by state and local authorities and a high birth rate (by European standards) has crippled the ability of a generation of Irish citizens and immigrants to either purchase or affordably rent a home. While the fundamental economic rules of supply and demand are not hard to understand, the reasons that successive governmental polices have failed to address or even slow the crisis are baffling.
Piecemeal efforts to pay private landlords extortionate rates straight from the state coffers or relocating families to hotels during the quiet season have, surprisingly, failed to work. To be fair, the idea of 'rent pressure zones' (rent control would apparently have been government overreach), should have slowed down the growth in rent prices but were undermined by exemptions in the policy and deliberate evasion by landlords. The private sector has proven its unwillingness to comply with price control in the rental market and its inability to engage in construction in the housing industry.
It is this writer's opinion that solutions to the current crisis must come from government and must come from a socially conscious policy that the state's current leadership lacks.
Social housing construction is required on a large scale to counterbalance years of undersupply and mortgage lending criteria that, while introduced to combat instability in the banking sector, have severely limited access to ownership for a vast swath of the population. This will have the effect not only of providing housing to those most vulnerable in our society but also of reducing demand on the private sector, and thus helping to ease price pressure. This capital expense would then also reduce the burden on the state coffers of rent supplement payments and facilitate a longer term policy of providing a steady supply of affordable housing to those most in need year to year rather than waiting for pressure to grow and housing crises to overwhelm the state.
This is not a policy that either the Right aligned parties of Ireland or even its newest so called centrists would endorse. It will require actions that conflict with the interests of private industry for the sake of the wellbeing of people living and working in the state. It will require hard work and cooperation between multiple stakeholders with an eye to fairness and quality of life over profit. It will require more imagination than 'tax cuts for developers' or 'moving home to save for a deposit'. It will require robust regulation of the private rental sector and even more robust housing and town planning on the part of both the national government and local councils.
The solution to the housing crisis can only be implemented by the Left. Empowering people by providing affordable housing and preventing predatory rental practices is not within the scope of the Right or even the political centre's imagination. This crisis is an abhorrently unnecessary burden on the people of Ireland after a decade of austerity and the task of solving it falls to us.

Grumpynators [Denmark]
Full Length
Target Records
Hard Rock/Groove Metal
I initially wasn't really keen to check out Grumpynators and their new full length, Wonderland, not thinking much about the band since their moniker made them sound like some kind of joke band. But seeing how the band boasts double bass player Jakob – who has appeared on two of my favourite Volbeat songs – got me interested, and perhaps one shouldn't judge the book by its cover, or rather a band by its honestly, pretty lame band name.
[xrr rating=3.5/5]
The usage of the double bass proves to be one of the more unique points of the band, and Grumpynators certainly makes full use of that as Jakob's bass is often clearly audible in the mix – something that I am definitely not complaining about. With Jakob's contributions to Volbeat in mind, one can't help but think of Volbeat right from the start of the album. For instance, songs like Walking in the Night with the groove provided by Jakob as well as the riffing styles of Christian and Emil remind me of the Volbeat track Lonesome Rider. In fact, just like Volbeat on their last opus, Grumpynators has even included a heavier, Metallica-inspired track This Is My Life on the album.
The old school rock 'n' roll vibe is also strong over here, and the gruff vocals of Emil easily reminds one of the works of Motörhead. There are even moments on the album when one is indulged in some good old school punk rock of Social Distortion, especially in the simple yet catchy licks on tracks like Walked Away. The solos provided by Emil and Christian also often bluesy, bringing one back to the early days of the genre, yet with that modern touch included in both the songwriting and their playing.
Grumpynators may not have an excellent name, but their tongue-in-cheek band name will certainly leave an impression on the listener. Most importantly, Wonderland is one hell of an album for those who love their music heavy, yet groovy and catchy.

Hairstyle Changes
A change in hairstyle can be a great confidence builder. It is also a way to develop your style and with it your relationships with others. How about changing to the hairstyle your significant other adores? We offer styling suggestions for a successful transition to your (and his) new favourite hairstyle
Not every new hairstyle requires a haircut. Small styling changes can make a big difference. If your hair is usually curly or wavy you may want to give straight hair a try. If you are used to allowing your long hair to fall where it may you may want to try your hand at an updo. The effect will be amazing! Change is good! Even if you do not discover your best styling option at the first try, you will be on your way.
How to find your favourite new hairstyle:
- Use hair accessories such as Alice bands, jewellery slides, interesting bandanas, scarfs or bands. Valentine's Day is a great opportunity to wear playful accessories with your new hairdo.
- Place your parting on the opposite side or switch to a middle parting.
- Use your blow dryer to create casual waves or straighten your hair. In his video, Armin Morbach shows how to create appealing hairstyles using your blow dryer: Video
- If you do not wear fringes comb your front hair from one side to the other across the forehead. Secure the front hair at the side hairline at ear level using a hair slide. You find more ways to drape your front hair across the forehead here: Fake Pony
- Brighten your hair colour using colour accents or hair colour applications.
See whether you find your new favourite hairstyle here:
Surprise with this Festive Long Bob (Lob)
Your partner will love this soft touchable long bob and your friends and colleagues will not miss the festive character of this hairstyle. This shoulder-length bob is soft and extravagant to boot. If your hair is longer and you do not want to cut it you can still style a faux bob. A few bobby pins and hairspray are all you need.
Various faux bob hairstyles favoured by the stars. See here
The Romantic Updo
This undone chignon is quick and easy to style even if you have never created an updo before.
Styling: Gather your hair at the nape of your neck, fold the long ends under and secure them using bobby pins. Allow a few stray strands to escape the updo. Curl these stray hair strands using a curling iron. Apply extra-gloss hairspray for lustre and secure hold.
Sometimes, a lot is good but more is better. This certainly rings true for this hairstyle for special occasions. Surprise your date with an eye-popping bunch of side-swept curls.
Styling: Use a curling iron to create large curls in your hair. Apply volumising powder to the root portion of your hair and tease your hair to create as much volume as possible. Then sweep the wealth of curls across one shoulder.

Your cart is empty!
Simple but very effective! Eliminates the play that is inherent with all hitch-mounted accessories because of the loose fit necessary for the accessory to slide into the hitch. The MotoTote Zero-Wobble bolt makes a solid connection between the hitch tube of the vehicle and the MotoTote.
This is the bolt that comes with all MotoTote motorcycle carriers. The head is exactly the right diameter to recess into the hitch pin hole of the hitch tube of your vehicle and clamp the MotoTote tube to the inside wall of the hitch.
Works only with MotoTote products because of the special-sized hitch pin hole used on MotoTote products.
Instructions for MotoTote Zero-Wobble Hitch Bolt
This works with all MotoTotes manufactured since 2004 including MTX m3 and MTX Sport motorcycle carriers
Great product. Quick ship.
One of the things I didn't realize with the MotoTote was that it doesn't wobble. In fact, it's rock-steady in the hitch. Likewise, I didn't quite understand how to bolt the carrier into the trailer hitch mount because of the "assumption" that a carrier should wobble. But you need the correct bolt/washer/nut in order for that to happen, and I ordered a couple of spares just in case they'd be needed.
Had the bike rack wobble for a number of months before I contacted moto-tote who dispatched the anti wobble bolt. Tidied up the wobble so I can continue taking my bike through light 4x4 terrain on the back of the truck, ace!
Solid cure for wobbly carrier, fair price and shipped as promised and on time.
Its a high quality bolt that with shipping came to $18.63. Once I received the bolt I realized it is a standard bolt, it could be purchased from supply shop for less than $1. (I purchased 4 for $2.55) So, I generally think after purchasing a $400-$500 carrier the company shouldn't gouge you on a $1 bolt and nut. Thanks [MotoTote response: The Zero-Wobble bolt is not an off-the-shelf bolt. It has a smaller diameter head than the bolt of similar size that you can buy at a fastener supply store. If you do buy at a supply store you will need to grind the head down to size. We regularly advise customers on how to do this if they are inclined to, have the skills and want to save a few bucks.]

Should You Hire Someone with an Entrepreneurial Spirit? What Are the Pros and Cons?
In what situation is it okay to hire an entrepreneurial spirit?
Well, this is a very interesting question because of few instances in your career as an HR or when you're hiring someone for your company you will come across someone who has the urge to learn and to start something of themselves on their own.
How should you handle this? Should you or should you not hire the person?.
Let's talk about the pros and cons of hiring someone who has this entrepreneurial side of him or her.
- Can be the person who is working in your company might lure away all your employees or all of your top performing employees to his own startup and then he or she might convince them that I have this idea for which I'll work I'll gain the capital and I will invest this money into our startup and I want you to be a part of it and I will give you the equity of some valuation.
- The person who has this spirit will try to make connections and contacts with everyone because every designated employee is a tool for every different department that a startup needs. The point is similar to point 1 but it is important, they will try to extract as much knowledge as they can, for example, they will try to that person will try to extract knowledge from your sales department like:Who is your client
Where do you get that client?
How do you approach your client?
How do you contact that client etc?
- The biggest advantage of hiring someone with this entrepreneurial spirit is that they are full of energy and they will do anything and everything that you tell them.An entrepreneur a person with that entrepreneurship spirit they will be always they will be excited to do more and learn more from everything and they will be ready to jump in, to take any responsibility from which they can learn and gain experience.What you can do is use them to your businesses advantage, your benefit.
- Remember that it won't last for a very long period of time for example if you have X in your company you cannot expect X to be there in your company for 15 years for 20 years, but if they are in your company for maybe six months for two for even two years you have this opportunity you have two full years to make sure that you utilize X to your own benefit to your own company's benefit.Make sure that you take enough advantage of that enthusiasm they have in them.
These pros and cons are going to help you grow your business a lot.
This is what happens and this is how small business can grow very fast.
This is another important thing, don't fire X employee who is good for you, for example, If X is leaving your company, back them up don't hate them, in fact be a parent but make sure they are not disturbing a market so in a way you are able to monitor their growth you're able to monitor their movement and everything.
In that way, you don't make nemesis for you in the market and you always are on good terms with your competition.
