We need your help. If you live in Adams, Jefferson, Larimer or Pueblo, your Senator may be the deciding vote in whether pretrial justice succeeds in Colorado. Senate Bill 21-062 is being considered by the Colorado Senate. Without your support, this bill will not pass into law, and thousands of Coloradans will remain behind bars simply because they can’t afford to pay bond.
Suicide remains a leading cause of death in jail. Too many people will ultimately die from desperation behind bars solely because they can’t afford to pay bond. A justice system that requires money in exchange for freedom costs lives.
On April 28 at 4 p.m., join us for an hour of activism on SB21-062. You’ll get behind-the-scenes information on the bill, have all your questions answered and workshop the most impactful action you can take, including personalized emails and calls to your Senator.
15 REASONS THE ACLU-CO SUPPORTS SB21-62
1. It’s time to reverse the trend of CO’s exploding jail population. Before COVID, over 12,000 people slept in Colorado jails every night, an 800% increase since the 1970s. Our jail population grew exponentially because of a massive increase in the pretrial population.
2. Jails do not keep us safe. Failed broken windows policing and the war on drugs have filled our jails with people accused of low-level crimes who pose no safety risk.
3. Mass incarceration harms our most vulnerable communities. SB21-062 safely reduces jail populations by limiting cash bail and pretrial detention — punishments that disproportionately harm our most vulnerable neighbors. For example, people in jail are 4 times more likely to have disabilities, and more than half of people in jail have psychiatric disabilities.
4. SB21-62 is a racial justice bill. Black, Indigenous and Latino people are disproportionately policed and arrested compared to White people, and they are more likely to have money bond set, more likely to face higher bond amounts and more likely to be detained pretrial.
5. Jails are not a solution to societal problems. Jails have become our first response to homelessness, substance abuse and mental illness, even though jail staff lack the expertise or resources to address these societal problems.
6. Urgent need for pretrial justice. Most people in jail are held pretrial, have not been convicted of a crime, and remain incarcerated only because they cannot afford to pay money bond.
7. SB21-62 is a harm reduction bill. Because a disproportionate number of people living in poverty, LGBTIQ people, people with mental health issues, and people with disabilities are arrested and jailed for low-level crimes, SB21-062 is also a social justice bill. Because they are extremely vulnerable to violence, abuse, and trauma in interactions with police and in jails, SB21-062 is also a harm reduction bill.
8. SB21-62 ensures jails are reserved for people who pose a safety threat. SB21-62 adopts a narrow set of COVID-19 jail population reduction policies aimed at keeping people accused of low level offenses out of jail while leaving wide discretion to arrest and hold people who pose a safety threat.
9. SB21-62 safely decrease use of cash bonds. SB21-62 limits the use of money bonds to cases where there is a safety or a flight risk so that fewer people are incarcerated solely for poverty.
10. SB21-62 saves taxpayer money. With a daily incarceration cost of $98.83 per person, sustained jail population reductions could save local communities millions each year.
11. Wealth-based detention Is harmful, cruel and can be deadly. Suicide is a leading cause of death in jails. Too many Coloradans have died by suicide while held in jail on money bond. Under SB21-62, they would likely have been free.
Pretrial detention destabilizes people.
12. Pretrial detention can send people’s lives into a downward spiral as they risk losing their job, their housing, their medical care, and custody of their children. Pretrial detention puts people at a higher risk for future involvement with the criminal legal system while increasing convictions and causing steeper sentences.
13. Crime survivors in support of SB21-62. SB21-62 went through an eight-month stakeholder process and is supported by a wide coalition including victims rights organizations, crime survivors, racial justice advocates, interfaith groups, sheriffs, and public safety advocates who are working to make this bill into law. Many crime survivors feel the system is not working to protect them or repair the harm they have suffered. If arresting people accused of low-level crimes and the money bond system had kept them safe, survivors would not be in support of SB21-62.
14. Now is the time for police reform. Now is a time for law enforcement resources and attention to be directed at preventing real crime and violence, rather than on arresting and jailing folks dealing with visible homelessness, low-level offenses, and non-violent non-victims rights act crimes.
15. Follows best lessons from COVID-19. During the COVID-19 crisis, sheriffs, judges, public defenders, and district attorneys worked together to save lives by reserving jail beds for people who pose a safety risk to others. SB21-062 takes the lessons learned and best practices from COVID-era jail population reduction efforts and enshrines a narrow subset of these strategies into law going forward.
By minimizing arrests, limiting the use of cash bail and pretrial detention, and correcting systemic injustices, we can reduce Colorado’s jail populations AND safeguard the public.

Most of us don’t live in an area where we can buy excellent, local citrus fruit so it’s become a wintertime ritual for many to order in a box (or two or three) of oranges, lemons, or the like. These boxes also make fantastic, thoughtful gifts.
Where should you by shopping?
What To Buy
There will be a large number of fruit options, much more than your local grocery store, so here what to look for…
- Bearss Lime: Also known as Persian lime. Light green in color and completely seedless
- Blood Orange: A deep red-fleshed orange that is popular in Italy. Not too sweet, not too tart with a deep, subtle flavor not found in most citrus. Sometimes known as the Spanish Moro orange or the Sicilian Sanguinello
- Cara Cara – A pink-fleshed orange with reduced level of acid compared to traditional varieties
- Clementine: A small, easy to peel, seedless mandarin usually sold in large bags
- Duncan Grapefruit: A very juicy, tart grapefruit that has lots of seeds, making it a bit of a pain to eat, but excellent for juice
- Kishu: A small, mandarin from Japan, around the size of a walnut. Easy to peel.
- Lee: A sweet, juicy tangerine that is not typically found in groceries. Difficult and messy to peel
- Minneola: A juicy, easy to eat tangelo (see FAQs below) with a small knob on the top. This fruit is actually the mixture of a Duncan grapefruit and a Dancy mandarin. It’s also known as a Honeybell (for its bell-like shape)
- Meyer Lemon: This is a small, sweet lemon that is a citron and a mandarin/pomelo
- Navel: The most common of the recognizable oranges. Large, round, juicy, and sweet, with a pronounced “navel” at one point
- Oro Blanco: A nearly white grapefruit with lots of sweetness. Actually a combination of an low acid pummelo and a white grapefruit
- Rio Star Grapefruit: From Texas, known for its reddish flesh and high levels of sweetness
- Valencia: These are juice oranges originally from Spain. Recognizable by a smooth skin and small blemishes on the fruit
These are just a small selection of the citrus varieties you’ll find online.
Where To Buy Oranges and Grapefruit Online
Here are farmers and cooperatives where you can buy great fruit direct.
Based in the Ojai Valley of Southern California, Churchill Orchards is a 12-acre farm sells Kishu, Pixie, Oro Blanco, Bearss limes, and Page tangors, as well as avocados. They sells boxes up to 25 pounds and only sell organic fruit.
Typical pricing would be $102 for 25 pounds of Pixie tangerines plus $20-30 for Fedex shipping to the continental US.
California-based Pearson Ranch has a wide variety of citrus boxes as well as monthly subscriptions. Boxes up to 35 pounds are available.
They offer a number of more common orange and lemon varieties as well as sampler boxes, organic honey, and other gifting-friendly options.
Despite being primarily known for their peaches and nectarines, Frog Hollow does sell some seasonal citrus. They have Cara Cara oranges, Meyer lemons, Navel oranges, Minneola tangelos, blood oranges, and a few other options. Frog Hollow does sell out often though, particularly with highly seasonal items (like their excellent cherries) so you’ll want to order early and often.
I’ve done many orders from Frog Hollow and would rate them in my top tier of dependable fruit purveyors, so I’ve included them here despite not really thinking of them as a go-to for citrus.
What is a tangelo fruit?
A tangelo is a fruit that is a combination of a tangerine or orange and a grapefruit or pomelo. The word “tangelo” is a combination of tangerine and pomelo. Examples of tangelo fruits would be a Minneola or Orlando.
What is a tangor fruit?
A tangor is a citrus fruit that is a hybrid of a mandarin orange and a sweet orange. A clementine is a type of tangor, as are the King and Murcott. The name is a combination of “tangerine” and “orange.”
What's the difference between a mandarin and a tangerine?
A mandarin and tangerine are quite similar and are often confused. A mandarin is a small citrus fruit thought to have originated in China (hence the name). A tangerine is a similar fruit but associated with Tangiers, but also originating from China. A tangerine is quite similar to the mandarin in its ancestry, but contains some degree of pomelo in it. A tangerine is actually a type of mandarin but for practical purposes the names are interchangeable.

Yeah, Sarah, I would be amazed if a popular Democrat runs against Biden. I wouldn’t be shocked, though, if he decreases to run for reelection.
If Trump were to all of a sudden wait to reveal or were even to float the idea he won’t run that could make complex Biden’s decision-making process if he is thinking about not running again. I think I’m just hesitant that Biden would toss in the towel without an obvious successor evident regardless of his age.
I’m not sure how much the data backs that up. They likewise picked Harris over Trump 45 percent to 44 percent.
And that’s before even entering into the truth that 2024 is two years away and early general-election polls are quite meaningless. It mostly depends on the pollster regarding whether Biden leads or Trump leads, however on balance, Biden may lead slightly typically. I do think, however, some Democrats think anybody besides Biden might be weaker versus Trump.
The majority of the discontent seems coming within Biden’s own celebration, too. There was a 9-point decline among Democrats in between the 2 polls. To be clear, 75 percent of Democrats stated they approve of the task Biden is doing as president. Compare that with the previous month, though, when 84 percent of Democrats felt the same.
Where Biden goes from here back up or stagnant could be crucial to determining whether he runs again. Not to discuss that up until very recently Biden also had the most affordable approval rating of any president since completion of World War II. It’s gradually inched back up, but he’s still undersea total.
Is it reasonable to say that we’re all in contract that there is not space for anybody else in the Democratic primary aside from Biden unless, of course, he does not run? OK, time to talk about the Republican side of things.
Of those, De, Santis is the only one who (currently) seems capable of defeating Trump ought to the former president certainly run.
We saw in 2016 that the Republican primaries’ use of winner-take-all or winner-take-most delegate systems assisted Trump quite smoothly win the election with just a plurality of the primary vote. So if you get a number of candidates splitting up the vote not going for Trump, it’s just going to make it simpler for him to win.
You’re not challenging a sitting president, and there certainly seems to be a minimum of some hesitancy over Trump and the idea that he has too much baggage and may not have the ability to win in a basic election again. A New York City Times/Siena College survey from last month found, for circumstances, that almost half of Americans who planned to vote in the 2024 Republican politician primary would choose a prospect other than Trump in a main race.
I’m happy you raised that survey, because I believed that was an interesting method to frame the results, as one could likewise argue from that poll that Trump is still the undisputed leader. He was first, with 49 percent support, and De, Santis was in 2nd, at 25 percent.
There is certainly more space for an opposition to Trump than to Biden, however Trump would still be favored. According to a recent Politico/Morning Consult survey, 56 percent of Republican politician and independent registered citizens said they would support Trump, while 18 percent stated they would support De, Santis, 8 percent stated they would support Pence and a lot of other candidates all got 2 percent or less.
According to that You, Gov/Yahoo News survey I pointed out earlier, Trump beats De, Santis 44 percent to 35 percent amongst signed up citizens in a direct match. Absolutely, but this point (from the Times reporting on the poll) was a fascinating contrast to me: “His share of the Republican primary electorate is less than Hillary Clinton’s amongst Democrats was at the outset of the 2016 race.” Of course, Clinton ultimately won that race, but it wasn’t an assurance Sanders gave her a genuine run for her cash.
The Times could have likewise compared Trump to Gore’s position in 1999. He, of course, went on to win the main without much trouble. That said, De, Santis is clearly a legitimate threat to Trump; a 9-point lead in the polls is not secure. That’s specifically real given that Trump has universal name recognition, while De, Santis doesn’t.
I know we had a chat in the past about whether Trump’s grip on the GOP is still strong. At the time, I said that Trump might be weaker than some would like to confess, however after Tuesday night’s outcomes most notably Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney’s main loss paired with the fates of the nine other Republicans who voted to impeach the previous president I really believe it’ll be actually difficult for another Republican to cut through his power.

Something that most might have missed in yesterday's Nintendo Fall Conference: Data about male and female users. Since the DS launched, Nintendo has been all about expanding the user base to those not traditionally (stereotypically?) considered gamers like females and old people. Sure, there have been females playing videos games for donkey's yonks, so that in itself is no biggie. But, according to Nintendo's data, the percentage of females now playing its consoles is. In Japan, the DS has a 53 percent female user base, while the Wii has a 51 percent user base. You do the math! In the future, don't be surprised if Nintendo talks about expanding its user base — to males.
Females High Percent [Infendo]

Money and freedom are frivolous things when it comes to the protection of Donald Hutcherson's property rights.
The Forest Park citizen has led a 13-year crusade against the city, in which he has resisted its interference in his front yard at every path, resulting in jail time and costing him thousands of dollars in legal fees and fines.
Since 1998, he has been cited 11 times, according to court records. Citations dating back to 1991 could not be retrieved because they were too old, environmental court officials said.
Most recently, Hutcherson served two days of a six-month jail sentence before the judge rescinded the order Wednesday.
The six-month sentence stemmed from an August building ordinance violation that one influential community member has called "backwoods law."
On Aug. 6 Hutcherson was cited for three violations on his property, including an unapproved driveway, failure to remove a garbage can, and failure to get an inspection for the addition of shingles to his garage.
Municipal Court Judge Michael Martin found him guilty of the shingles violation, and initially imposed a suspended sentence of 10 days incarceration contingent on the payment of $135 fine.
But he added on six months because a prior court order from March stipulated that Hutcherson not violate any city ordinance for the duration of his suspended sentence.
The judge recanted after the president of the local NAACP n of which Hutcherson is a member n pressured the city for answers as to why garage shingles warranted six months of jail time.
"This is not justice, it's some kind of backwoods law," said Dexter Matthews, the president of Clayton County branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
"This is the kind of stuff that goes on in Clayton County, and the reason why I'll always have a job to do here," he said.
Hutcherson's attorney, Dorian Murry agreed, saying the scroll of violations in Forest Park's environmental court surpassed harassment.
"This is a situation where Hutcherson has been targeted," he said.
Forest Park's planning and zoning department has a room full of documents relating to Hutcherson and his battle against the city.
Photos and statements spread across the table paint a picture of an unrelenting citizen with "an anti-government disposition," said Steve Pearson, the director of planning and zoning.
A picture shows Hutcherson running for mayor in 1997 when he vowed to do away with the city's environmental court.
Building Inspector Mike Tuttle said the constant friction has made he and his staff weary of the residence on the south side of the city.
But they would not back down, Pearson said.
"It all boils down to care of the premises," he said, denying claims of harassment.
"Even if there is not a complaint, look at the yard, the city becomes the complainant," Pearson said, pointing to a photograph with miscellaneous construction materials and a covered car.
The saga of one man's emboldened stalemate with the city's environmental ordinances began in 1991, when Tuttle said he refused to let inspectors on the property.
The incident sparked a series of bitter clashes that Hutcherson said amounts to a vendetta against he and his neighbors.
On numerous occasions, Hutcherson claims that his complaints at City Council meetings were followed promptly with an ordinance citation.
One year ago, Hutcherson said he criticized the city publicly for failing to hire any minorities for jobs that paid more than $40,000.
The following day he said he received a backlash of ordinance violations.
Pearson said the city has not executed any citations that were unwarranted.
While Hutcherson's face in the city government may not live up to model citizen, in his neighborhood, he is valorized.
Friday, he turned wrenches to replace the starter in Margarita Watt's mini-van as he whipped out a litany of complaints about the city's environmental code.
"They have too high of standards," Hutcherson said.
Watt said she had been a victim of similar harassment by the city, having recently received a citation for $110.
Eleven other residences in the neighborhood have been cited recently for environmental ordinance violations, Tuttle said.
Although the city officials say they have given Hutcherson leeway, an end to the ongoing conflict may not come anytime soon.
Having beat six-month rap, Hutcherson said he felt victorious but didn't expect an armistice any time soon.
"I might sue the city," he said.

Teen accused of shooting inside Concord Mills theater over seating dispute in custody
CONCORD, NC (WBTV) - A teen accused of shooting another person inside Concord Mills mall Sunday evening was arrested on Monday, according to officials.
The incident reportedly took place in the AMC Theater attached to the mall shortly before 6 p.m and resulted from a dispute over seating in the theater, officials say. The victim, now identified as William Weldon, 24, of Charlotte, was treated for his injuries at the hospital and was later released.
On Monday, police said 18-year-old Bryant Gregory Eaves Jr was arrested in Indian Land, SC. He’s being charged with one count of assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury with intent to kill.
After the shooting, the mall was closed down and patrons were asked to leave. Jameel Bryant was inside the mall right after the shooting happened and says he witnessed panic ensue.
“It looked like a movie, like people escaping... and just literally running for their lives,” said Bryant. “I can tell you what I’m glad I went to church today. To be that close to danger is kind of scary.”
The mall was closed down as a result of this incident and an early investigation by police determined that the suspect was no longer inside of the mall.
Eaves is being held in the Lancaster County Detention Center awaiting extradition back to Charlotte.

My first exposure to yoga came as a child via my mother and a Raquel Welch VHS tape. Our “sacred space” was a cramped, cluttered bedroom in our tiny rural home, but the beauty and power of the practice elevated our humble surroundings and took root in my heart.
As a young adult, I rediscovered yoga after losing my mother to cancer. Grief was overtaking me and manifesting in unhealthy ways. Always a type-A personality, the less desirable aspects of my personality were magnified and reigning supreme: perfectionism, unrealistic expectations, self-criticism, anger, dissatisfaction, and control. I’d like to say that the idea of getting back to my yoga roots came to me as a great epiphany during a moment of clarity, but it was simpler than that. I hated traditional exercise, I always enjoyed yoga, and it was a connection to my mother that couldn’t be severed.
Through yoga, I can purge the junk, both physically and mentally. It is a whole-being practice. Not only is my body healthier, but I am a calmer, more thoughtful person. I am better equipped to regulate my emotions and tendencies. I can increasingly, as they say, “not sweat the small stuff”. I like myself and I am at peace: that is the magic of yoga for me.
I am drawn to restorative yoga as a teacher because relaxing, especially relaxing into discomfort, is a critical wellness skill that’s being lost in our rat-race lifestyles. Many people, particularly women, are unable to disentangle feelings of guilt and selfishness that often accompany stepping away from their responsibilities - even briefly - for some much-needed “me time”. As such, we fall victim to an endless cycle of desperately needing to recharge in order to be our best selves, yet not allowing ourselves the space to do so. I want to empower people to embrace the importance of balance and to shed the negative attachments that threaten it.

The news comes as the US is preparing to send a further five HIMARS systems to Ukraine, as well as 580 Phoenix Ghost Drones. President Volodymyr Zelensky has also pleaded to the West to send more air defence capabilities as Russians turn to longer-range missiles to counter the arrival of the HIMARS rockets which so far have proved devastating to Vladimir Putin’s forces. With the conflict now over 150 days long, the White House is considering the notion of providing fighter jets to Ukraine.
However, the move is not something that would be done immediately according to White House spokesman John Kirby.
He said: “The White House is making some preliminary explorations in the feasibility of potentially providing fighter aircraft to the Ukrainians, but it’s not going to be something that they’re going to be able to execute immediately.
“Integrating and operating any kind of aircraft, especially advanced fighter aircraft, involves complex systems and weapons capabilities, and that’s a difficult endeavour.
“So this is not something that’s going to happen anytime soon.”
The move would see a further increase in support for Ukraine, which to date, has amounted to some $8.2billion (£6.83bn).
Last week Air Force Chief of Staff General Charles “CQ” Brown said the US and allies are starting to examine possible training for Ukrainian pilots.
Ukraine’s air force has publicly flagged its hopes for F-15s and F-16s.
Earlier this month, Slovakia stepped up its aid effort to Ukraine by donating 12 MiG 29’s to Ukraine, as well as 30 T-72 tanks.
The latest US package will also include aerial capabilities in the form of the Phoenix Ghost drones.
The aircraft, built by AEVEX Aerospace LLC is a highly capable drone according to reports which say “It’s a good ‘widget.”
It fits inside a backpack and can operate in the air for around six hours before returning to base.
It has infrared guidance which can operate at night and destroy medium-armoured targets.
Shock as China threatens ‘strong measures’ against Biden
This previously unknown, one-time-use weapon is designed primarily to attack targets, though it is also capable of conducting non-lethal missions and is likened to the AeroVironment Switchblade—a loitering munition.
Such weapons combine the manoeuvrability, usability, and flight time of a drone with the lethal effects of a missile.
Speaking of the drone, a senior White House official said in May: “The Phoenix Ghost was rapidly developed by the Air Force, in response, specifically to Ukrainian requirements.
“This is a great example of adapting to their needs in real-time.”
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy this week said his forces could inflict major damage on Russia as Kyiv leans on Western weapons in planned efforts to launch a counterattack and recapture territory.
In an interview with the Wall Street Journal on Friday, Zelenskyy said a ceasefire with Russia without reclaiming lost territories would only prolong the war.
He warned that a ceasefire that allows Russia to keep Ukrainian territories seized since the invasion in February would only encourage an even wider conflict, giving Moscow an opportunity to replenish and rearm for the next round.

Hopes emerged of diplomacy providing the first step toward a peace agreement following a deal between Russia and Ukraine to recommence the flow of grain and wheat from Ukrainian ports.
However, reports emerged just hours into the deal that the port of Odessa was hit by missiles breaking any agreements in place.
President Zelensky said: “This proves only one thing, no matter what Russia says and promises, it will find ways not to implement it.”
Anton Gerashchenko, an adviser to Ukraine’s Interior Ministry, shared an image on Telegram that appeared to show smoke rising from the port.
Writing in this post, he said: “How will the safety of vessels in the port of Odessa be ensured, if Russia continues shelling?”
Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar said Saturday that Ukrainian officials told him that the strikes had not hampered the “capacity and capability of the docks, which is important.”
He said: “The Russians told us they had absolutely nothing to do with this attack and they were examining the issue very closely and in detail.
“We are also disturbed by this.”

Business owners have different ways of motivating their people to achieve the desired outcomes. One thing they all can agree upon is that retaining their talent is necessary for business growth.
Employee engagement is a pretty broad thing. There are many aspects to it, some are more abstract, like the work ethics, and some are tangible such as fair compensation.
You can find specific facts about employee engagement based on the information you collect from observing your staff and getting direct feedback. And to start working on implementing more effective worker engagement practices, you can also look at the research data that is already there on the web.
In the following part, you will see the trends and state of employee engagement at certain companies. You can use these insights to make your company a better place for your people, and when you care for them, they are happier and inspired to achieve essential business goals.
Nine employee engagement realities you should know about
1. Clear vision, and work expectations boost employee engagement.
We often see that people put in a lot of hard work and still cannot achieve their targets. The problem here is not the amount of work being done but the lack of focus on the efforts that make a difference.
For example, an Outbound Marketing guy may be working 10 hours a day sitting at the desk and sending emails to potential clients, only to find out they are not getting enough leads.
The main problem could be the specific type of individuals getting those emails. The marketing guy needs to refine his list and only send emails to the relevant target audience.
These details come with experimentation and learning from failures, but having a goals-based (or OKR-based approach) guides team to correct their course quickly.
OKRs are clearly defined and measurable, removing confusion regarding what the business and the individual must achieve. In short, they lay the foundation for employee engagement.
2. Disengaged employees increase the burn rate and costs to the company.
Employees that don’t feel connected to their work cost around $450-$500 to US companies each year.
In startups, where the team is generally small, it can cause business failure as they cannot achieve the desired outcomes.
It may not be just about the cash; when disinterested employees leave the company, they can spread bad word about the company.
3. Continuous performance management and feedback enhance employee engagement.
Workers are three times more engaged at work when they get frequent feedback from their leaders.
People are generally more productive when they know their leaders care about their work.
Regular discussions about the work remove any confusion about the business priorities. It also strengthens the alignment between team members, leaders, and the company goals.
4. Accountability and problem-solving ability make the staff more involved with the team.
Your people become accountable when they realize that their work makes a difference in the business. They are responsible for their part in the teamwork and business outcomes.
When people are enabled to solve issues for themselves, they become better at problem-solving and implementing innovative solutions.
Everyone knows the vibes they get when they enter a room where a group is seamlessly collaborating and functioning like one perfect system.
The zeal to contribute to the team and achieve successful outcomes makes the employees more engaged at work.
5. Effective recognition and rewards result in higher employee motivation.
A study says employee recognition is the most encouraging factor.
Employees are happier at companies where the leaders appreciate the excellent work and give constructive feedback. Acknowledging individual and team contributions openly inspires people.
Money is a significant motivating factor, but it’s not the only one; employees also report greater satisfaction at companies where the praise comes from their peers.
6. People may leave if they are not engaged at work.
We all know people who are looking for a new job while they are working at one.
Nearly 33% of the workers decide to leave their current jobs when they are not engaged well.
A high employee turnover is not okay anywhere. Companies that do not invest in better employee experience also report higher costs.
Organizations do many things to enhance employee satisfaction, such as providing flexibility in working, giving them more freedom and responsibilities, providing paid vacations, etc.
7. Career growth opportunities help in improving engagement
About 41% of the workers say that career development opportunities are very important at a company.
People are more confident when they are skilled and do their job well. Companies that encourage their people to advance their skillset and learn new things report a happier workforce.
8. Not a lot of companies monitor employee engagement
Only 16% of organizations use technology to monitor employee progress and engagement.
Companies cannot escape the use of technology now; their competitors are using technology products, making specific business operations more efficient.
The world recently saw employees work from home full-time, and that is when companies felt the need for practical employee engagement tracking tools.
9. Ditching ‘all work, no play’ and having fun makes people happy.
You don’t have to be an all-time serious manager to the employees. Having some humor and fun sometimes lets your people be at ease.
It’s been observed that highly engaged work cultures include fun activities at work. Taking recreational breaks occasionally also helps in reducing stress and strengthening work relationships.
People are happier and feel more valued when the company invests time and money in the fun time, which is essential for engagement.
For example, a study mentioned that happy employees are 12-20% more productive.

Continue the advancement of the multidisciplinary design of a durable sea crawler system that is able to undertake sea floor missions where divers are not capable of exploring. The remotely operated vehicle (ROV) allows for the use of variable attachments to aid in a wide variety of underwater practical applications. The ROV also features a buoyancy control system which allows vertical movement through the water column. A tank-like track system allows for easy translation along the sea floor.

A House chairman called on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) to send the impeachment articles to the Senate—the first House Democrat to do so.
“I understand what the speaker was trying to do—basically trying to use the leverage of that to work with Democratic and Republican senators to try to get a reasonable trial, a trial that would actually show evidence, bring out witnesses,” Armed Services Chairman Adam Smith (D-Wash.) said during a Jan. 9 appearance on CNN.
“But at the end of the day, just like we control it in the House, Mitch McConnell controls it in the Senate,” Smith said, referring to the Senate majority leader. “I think it was perfectly advisable for the speaker to try to leverage that to get a better deal. At this point, it doesnt look like thats going to happen.”
“It is time to send the impeachment to the Senate and let Mitch McConnell be responsible for the fairness of the trial,” he added.
CNN anchor Dana Bash said that the comments from Smith were “perilous” politically; he was the first House Democrat to publicly call for Pelosi to transmit the articles. Bash said one House Democrat texted her saying members of the caucus arent speaking out publicly because theyre afraid of retribution from the Speaker. A number of Senate Democrats said this week that the articles should be transmitted.
Smiths comments came after Senate Judiciary Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) crafted a resolution calling on Pelosi to send the impeachment articles to the Senate.
Pelosi lacks “the power to effectively veto a resolution passed by a duly elected majority of the House of Representatives by refusing to transmit such a resolution to the Senate,” Graham wrote in the resolution, which he planned on introducing on Thursday.

ITV’s Daybreak triggered the attacks when it asked viewers to tweet questions to the Girls Aloud singer.
But show bosses were left red-faced when Twitter was deluged with jokes and abusive comments.
Hundreds of website users mocked Cheryl, claiming she was “talentless”.
Andy Parsons tweeted: “What’s your view on hugely untalented artists making millions from the entertainment industry just because they scrub up nice?”
A Rapper added: “How does it feel to be pretty enough that you don’t actually need any musical talent or singing ability to be a success?”
Some asked X-rated questions about her sex life with ex Ashley Cole, 32.
And others wanted her quizzed on her assault conviction in 2003.
FanDANgo tweeted: “What was it like throwing a punch at someone...who was just doing their job?”
But others were less cruel with one lovestruck lad asking her to a “Wetherspoon’s lunch”, while some posted tricky science and maths questions.
And fans rushed to defend their idol. Emily Jacobs wrote: “I can’t believe some people have ruined this.
“I understand if you are not a fan but you don’t have to ruin things for the fans.”
Neither Cheryl, 29, nor Daybreak’s showbiz presenter Richard Arnold responded to the taunts. But Richard, 43, tweeted a picture of the pair during the interview.
He wrote: “Love a spot of afternoon delight with @ CherylCole! Catch the chat only @Daybreak this Friday.”
Cheryl returned to Britain at the weekend after spending time in LA following Girls Aloud’s final concert.
The attacks on her come after David Beckham, 37, faced below-the-belt queries during a Q&A session on H&M’s Twitter feed earlier this year.

This term our student society, LADS, organised a trip to Liverpool to explore a city rich in historic and contemporary architecture! The seem to have taken on the spirit of the city! Many more trips to come!
Quote from LADS:
“Our first UK trip of the year was to Liverpool, with 20 of us rambling around Liverpool visiting sights such as Albert Dock, Tate Museum, The Beatles Story, Liverpool Cathedral and taking part in an RIBA tour of Liverpool”.
We have nominated our Year 1 BArch student, Jessica Yarrow to be a member of the RIBA Regional Education Group who will be meeting this week in Lincoln. Its a great opportunity for Jessica to influence and inform decisions relating to architectural education from a student perspective!
Jessica has already shown dedication to extra curricular activities within the school. She completed the RIBA Ambassador Training and we look forward to working with her on workshops with school children in Lincolnshire!
Upwards and onwards team….
Last week, we had the fantastic opportunity to organise the RIBA Ambassador Training at the School with Architecture students, staff and Lincolnshire Architects! Thank you Fiona MacDonald and Lucy Grierson for presenting to us and setting us a workshop task that immediately got us all thinking doing and talking! We are looking forward to organising workshops with school children in Lincolnshire very soon! For more information or if you wish to be involved please contact us!
As a part of the collaboration between the Lincolnshire Society of Architects and the University of Lincoln we organised mock interviews for our students to give them a valuable experience to help them prepare for finding employment. We have to thank our Lincolnshire Architects for their enthusiasm and support for the initiative.

Frequency Festival of Digital Culture is a biennial festival hosted in the city of Lincoln, providing a platform to celebrate the pioneering spirit of digital innovation and culture through exhibition, creative collision and debate. It showcases artists’ work from all over the world, using a historic city as its canvas and sharing it around the globe.
A multi disciplinary team of students and staff based in the Lincoln School of Architecture and Design and the Lincoln School of Computer Science has exhibited at the Drill Hall in Lincoln for Frequency Festival. Working as a team for a number of years, exploring the question; how to materialize or make physical the immaterial world of social media? Projects they have completed include the Gold Medal winning Twitter gardens in Chelsea and Harrogate.
A mechanised installation controlled via Twitter, Pynchon’s Wall searches for key words and phrases related to this year’s Frequency theme of liberation and moves its panels based on the data it receives. The wall mines its own analysis and responds directly to certain subjects, allowing the audience to interact with and direct the work, forming a visual representation of public opinion.
The project has been highlighted as one of the exhibits to see in numerous publications and social media!

Car rentals in Mesquite: All you need to know
A Mesquite car rental gives you the opportunity to go where you want, when you want. You can check out all the sights, and even find out what the rest of Nevada has to offer. CarRentals.com has answered your most popular questions about renting a car in Mesquite. Read on to find out which vehicle is perfect for your trip, and how to get the best rates.
Where do I find a great deal on a car rental in Mesquite?
CarRentals.com always tries to get you the best rate. But, you can do a few things to keep your upcoming booking affordable. Be sure to:
- Compare and contrast weekly and daily rates from all the different suppliers
- Book as far in advance as possible. You'll usually save more and get the car of your choice
- Learn about any cost for fuel policy, additional drivers, and mileage limits. That way you will know the total cost before you book
- Don't get more vehicle than you'll need. Generally, the smaller the class the lower the rate
These tips can help you save even more on your next car rental in Mesquite.
What rental companies have agencies in Mesquite?
We have around nine rental providers to choose from in Mesquite. You'll find some of the best suppliers, like Enterprise. Look through the online reviews to get an idea of which meets your needs.
What type of rental car should I get for my trip to Mesquite?
That depends on how many people you are traveling with and what activities you want to do in Mesquite. If you're having trouble picking the right car, be sure to go over our chart below. We have compared the most popular categories for you:
|Car Type||Best for||Category Includes|
|Luxury||When you need the best||Cadillac, Audi, or similar|
|SUV||If you plan on doing plenty of exploring and want a comfortable ride||Hyundai Santa Fe, Nissan Quest, or similar|
|Hybrid||Those looking for a fuel-efficient vehicle||Toyota Prius, Honda Civic, or similar|
What's the age requirement to rent a car in Mesquite?
Usually, the age limit for renting a car in Mesquite is 21. However, you may find that there is an additional charge if you're under 25 or for larger or higher category rentals in particular. Read through the supplier's terms to discover what the exact fee is before you reserve your rental.
Does Mesquite require rental car insurance?
When cruising through Mesquite or the rest of the U.S.A., you'll need insurance. Almost every supplier needs proof of insurance before you pick up your automobile. Most countries require the driver to have insurance. You may be able to buy interim insurance with the rental agency. Additionally, as a U.S. citizen, you can also book Collision Damage Coverage with CarRentals.com during checkout.
The major credit card issuers (Discover, American Express, Visa, and MasterCard) will generally cover your car rental. But many of them have restrictions, like not covering large vehicles like trucks or SUVs. It is best to call and find out what kind of coverage is offered before you travel to Mesquite.
What are the different fuel policies?
Most suppliers allow you to choose which policy you want. Below is a list of the most common ones.You will need to find a gas station close to your rental car supplier
|Policy Type||Policy Description||Advantages||Disadvantages|
|Full to Full||The tank will be full when you collect your vehicle. Use as much gas as you wish and then refill the tank when you drop the vehicle off. If you refill the tank before you return your car, you won't be charged a refueling cost||You only pay for the fuel you use. If you only use half of a tank, it's only necessary refill half of a tank, and therefore avoid paying for any you don't need. You can shop around for the cheapest prices and you'll only pay service charges if you don't refill the tank|
|Full to empty (pre-paid)||You'll receive the car with a full tank of fuel and return the car with the tank empty. Many rental car companies provide a refund for any unused fuel. Be sure to confirm with them beforehand||You won't have to search for a gas station before you drop-off your car||You might pay a higher rate for the tank than you would filling up at a local gas station|
|Empty to empty||You will not have a full tank of fuel when you collect the vehicle, and you won't need to refill the gas before you drop it back off||You refill your tank yourself, so you won't pay more than local pump prices||You'll need to locate a gas station as soon as you get the car|
What type of fuel policy should I choose?
Many suppliers offer a variety of fuel policies. However, full-to-full is our stand-out winner. It simply means returning the car with the same level of gas as you got it with, so you'll never pay for anyone else's road trips through the Mesquite.
Should I get unlimited miles when I rent a car in Mesquite?
If you wish to explore all that Mesquite and maybe even the rest of Nevada offers, you're going to want unlimited miles. You won't have to worry about extra charges if you decide to drive all over Mesquite. Go over the fine print to make certain your mileage is truly "unlimited."
Before you leave the lot
Before you begin on your Mesquite vacation, be sure you check out a few things prior to leaving the lot. It's important to:
- Check out your vehicle and make certain there is no dents or scrapes. If so, mark it down on the paperwork
- Make you have a properly inflated spare tire, lug wrench, and jack in the trunk
- Get familiar with the controls of your car. Adjust the mirrors and seats, and note how to turn on the lights and windshield wipers
- Figure out how to work the entertainment and GPS (if available). It's best to limit any unneeded distractions when you are navigating a new city

Food, Fornos of Spain, Julie Seyler, Lois DeSocio, Newark, Newark Ironbound, NJ, The Write Side of 50
BY LOIS DESOCIO AND JULIE SEYLER
My little New Jersey town conveniently straddles two big cities – Manhattan and Newark. I can make it to downtown Newark in 15 minutes, and on a Sunday, sans traffic, can drive to Manhattan in 20.
But it’s a hard sell to get my Manhattan friends to bridge or tunnel it over to the Jersey side for anything, much less dinner. Why would anyone leave Manhattan to eat? And eat in Newark? For the 25 years that I’ve lived nearby, a suggestion to dine in Newark has provoked comments from the uneducated about how they don’t understand how I could live so close to a city that they consider to only have bragging rights as a murder capital. Given that Newark’s Ironbound district rivals any Manhattan neighborhood for flavor of both the palatable and neighborhood kind – they are missing out.
But Julie was recently open to giving it a go, and took the PATH to Newark, where we met at Fornos of Spain – a somewhat touristy, but still tasty, Ironbound fixture. Shocking that Julie, a born-in-Jersey girl, who will fly for seven hours to eat tapas in Madrid, had never, in 50-plus years, ventured anywhere in Newark beyond its Penn Station platform. Dare I say – she and her camera were smitten? At least with the name:
In the Ironbound section of Newark, New Jersey there is a restaurant called Fornos of Spain. It is readily accessible from Manhattan via either the PATH or NJ Transit to Newark Penn Station. Last week, Lois and I dined there with our contributor buddies, Frank and Bob. We reveled in clams casino and gambas al ajillo; grilled grouper, paella valencia and filled-to-the-brim pitchers of sangria. I am pleased to say the sangria was not cloyingly sweet, as I, too, as this New York Times article points out, remember it being when I was drinking it in the 1970s.
The next day I set about looking for the Fornos, you know, the restaurant “of Spain.” I assumed that the Newark joint was a scion of a famous place in Spain, probably Madrid. An Internet search just turned up thousands of reviews of the Newark restaurant. I discussed the dilemma with Lois, who had a simple explanation: ‘Well, Jule, fornos means ovens in Portuguese, therefore the restaurant is actually called the Ovens of Spain.’ What? I mulled this over. That doesn’t make sense, because if fornos means ovens in Portuguese, why didn’t they call the restaurant Fornos of Portugal? And even that is not the final word on the subject because couldn’t there be a family named The Fornos? Maybe they came from Spain. So, what’s in a name? Whether it’s forno, or Newark? What I do know is that I want to go back to Newark’s Ironbound and find a Portuguese restaurant without “Spain” in the name.
Thanks for sharing a little bit of home. I was born and raised in Newark and I salivate at the thought of all the excellent restaurants down neck. My father owned a soda shop many, many years ago on Ferry between Congress and Prospect (I believe it is now a hair salon or a barber shop). Across the street was the Iberia Tavern, Roque and Robelo’s (?) on the corner and there was a restaurant called the Spanish Tavern over on Green Street where we would go eat every Sunday. Last time I was there was in 1988 and it was just as I remembered.
I can’t wait to make it back.
Nice post. Thanks for sharing. You are spot on about people being uneducated about the city and not daring enough to explore it. Fornos is delicious, as are countless other Portuguese, Spanish and Brazilian foods in the Ironbound section of Newark! Here are a couple more examples w/o Spain in the name: Seabra Marisqueira (87 Madison St.) and Don Pepe (844 McCarter Hgwy).
Julie Seyler said:
Thanks for the tips. They are going on the restaurant list, along with a bunch of good places we just heard about in Jersey City!
Susan Adler said:
Most Non-Jersey people don’t understand about Newark.. When we go to the Ironbound section or “down neck”….I feel as if I’ve stepped out of NJ and went to Portugal for a little while. Lois…..funny you should write about Forno’s. It was my dads favorite restaurant! You have to go to Seabra’s and sit at the bar and have the best cockles ever! And of course you need the Sangria to go with the delicious cockles!

Washington -- Consumers will see no shortages of California-grown fruits, nuts and vegetables this year despite one of the worst droughts in state history, but that's because farmers are draining groundwater reserves and leaving no insurance should heavy rains fail to materialize next winter, UC Davis researchers said Tuesday.
Californians are still living "in a Daniel Boone-type economy," said Richard Howitt, a UC Davis agricultural economist. "We still think we are in a groundwater-rich era. We don't even measure what we take."
Farmers' attitude, Howitt said, is "I pump what I want."
Don't count on wet winter
Jay Lund, a water scientist at UC Davis' Center for Watershed Sciences, said no one should be counting on a wet winter to bail out the state.
"One of the interesting things about droughts is you're never sure when they're going to end," Lund said. "Are we going to go for broke this year and empty all the reservoirs in the hope that next year's going to be wet?"
Lund said that in the more than a century that California has kept water records, a critically dry year like this one has been followed about a third of the time by another dry year.
"Don't count on El Niño for anything," said Lund, referring to the oceanic-atmospheric phenomenon that can affect California's precipitation patterns. Strong El Niños often bring above-average rain and snowfall to the state, but forecasters' latest prediction is for a weak to moderate event.
Howitt and Lund were among the authors of a new study by the watershed sciences center that combined NASA satellite data with economic models to forecast the effect of the drought on Central Valley farm production. The report was commissioned by the state's Department of Food and Agriculture and presented to the press and policymakers in Washington.
Tapping the ground
The study found that 75 percent of the shortfall in precipitation is being made up by groundwater withdrawals. That's substantially more than the entire State Water Project delivers in an average year, Lund said.
California is the only Western state that has no rules on groundwater pumping. Gov. Jerry Brown has issued a framework for managing the state's groundwater basins, and two bills are under consideration in the Legislature, said Karen Ross, head of the California Department of Food and Agriculture.
Ross said there is wide agreement that groundwater basins should be governed locally, but she said that pumping needs to be measured and regulated and that the state will intervene if necessary where local officials prove unable to act.
The drought is projected to sap $2.2 billion from the state's economy, with $1.5 billion of that coming from agriculture, through revenue losses and higher costs to buy and pump water. But even that is a small fraction of the state's $42 billion farm economy, the UC Davis researchers said.
About 428,000 acres have been fallowed, the scientists said. Water prices have tripled, to more than $1,000 an acre-foot, and well drillers are booked 10 months out, the researchers said.
For seasonal farmworkers in the San Joaquin Valley, however, the drought is an economic disaster.
"On average, you in Washington and elsewhere will all get your fruits, nuts, raisins, vegetables and wine," Howitt said, "but there are pockets of extreme deprivation where they are out of water and out of jobs."
Get the most out of it
Howitt said the market-driven move by farmers to plant permanent crops such as almond trees and vineyards is the right thing to do, even though such crops cannot be fallowed for a year or two, as with vegetable crops such as lettuce and broccoli. That's because the value of nuts and wine grapes is extremely high, he said, representing an efficient use of a scarce resource.
"I'm an economist," Howitt said. "Therefore, I believe that the crops which are best for California's economy are the ones that make the most money."

Running to crazy lengths for good causes
His fans affectionately call him "Ah Siao" (Hokkien for crazy one), and with good reason.
Over the years, local ultra-endurance athlete Gerrard Lin, 34, has done seemingly insane things to raise awareness for the causes he believes in.
He ran 50km daily for 50 days for SG50, ran 888km from Thailand to Singapore for a food fund-raiser and even dragged a 14kg tyre during a 42km Standard Chartered Marathon in 2012.
Now, Mr Lin, who also did training runs of 200km per week to make the three-hour qualification mark for the Boston Marathon in April last year, wants to take his passion to the next level through his creative start-up Run Pilgrim, by encouraging others to push boundaries as well.
The Nanyang Technological University graduate told The New Paper: "We want to raise a platform of awareness to inspire everyone, in any form, to come together for fitness.
"Everything we do has inclusivity components and we are filling gaps other profit-driven organisations aren't."
Mr Lin and his friend started the former events management business in 2009, but the current goal came about only last year.
The pair go about it in a fun way by organising boutique runs, such as the Durian Run (its fourth edition is on July 23) and the Teh Tarik Run.
Run Pilgrim is also in talks with the International Association of Ultra Runners to start ultra-marathons (longer than the usual 42km distance) in Singapore.
Last Thursday, Mr Lin, who has a Facebook fanpage with more than 3,000 followers, participated as a sports influencer in the fifth edition of the 3M Step-Up Challenge@South East, a two-month community initiative to raise funds for the underprivileged in the South East district.
The target that day was 200,000 steps, and a hamper containing five 3M household products was given to each of 30 needy families.
Among the 800 participants, Mr Lin, decked out in quirky pineapple-print tights, a wizard's hat and a fake beard, stood out in both appearance and performance.
He completed 5,288 steps during the three-hour OCBC Square event - five times more than the average person - out of the combined tally, an eventually record-breaking 620,000 steps.He said: "It is to show how ordinary people, like myself, can go beyond for a higher purpose."

I take part in a vegetable cooperative. Every week, I pick up a bag of seasonal vegetables and sometimes fruits assembled by local farmers. This system has introduced a lot of veggies that I’ve never cooked before. It’s also reintroduced many vegetables that my Mom used to cook for me as a child that I for some reason no longer buy as an adult. Take turnips for instance, in southern cuisine, they’re pretty much a staple, used to make delicious dishes such as stewed turnips and turnip greens.
I’ve received a nice supply of turnips from my veggie coop. They are such a lovely and welcomed addition to my fridge! I enjoy tossing them in salads, as they add a nice crunch and tangy taste. They are a nice alternative to dishes one would traditionally make with potatoes. I like them raw, mashed and recently I discovered, I love them baked and slightly drenched in cream and Gruyère cheese. Well, anything cooked with cream and Gruyère can pretty much taste like a piece of heaven. Hope you enjoy this short, simple recipe:
What you need.
4 – 5 medium-sized turnips, thinly sliced
cream (enough to cover the bottom of your glass baking dish)
3/4 c of grated Gruyère
2 -3 cloves of minced garlic
couple of pinches of nutmeg
salt and pepper to taste
How you make it.
Preheat your oven to 350
Slice up your turnips and stack them in an oven-proof dish.
Mix up your milk, nutmeg and garlic and pour the mixture all over the turnips.
Season turnips and sprinkle with cheese.
Bake 15 minutes at 350, increase heat to 400 and bake 15 minutes further, or until tender and golden brown.
Enjoy with a nice colorful salad.

Effect of Nonspherical Distorting Potentials in a First-Order Distorted-Wave Calculation
The first-order distorted-wave approximation (DWB1) has proved to be one of the most successful approaches for the theoretical calculation of electron-atom scattering. It is now evident that one must perform multistate close-coupling calculations or second-order perturbation calculations to improve significantly upon the DWB1, but these calculations require enormous computational efforts. Consequently, it is of interest to investigate the possibility of improving the standard DWB1. One such possibility that has not been investigated for electron-atom scattering is the use of realistic nonspherical distorting potentials. In this paper, the DWB1 formalism is presented for nonspherical distorting potentials, and the effects of such a potential are investigated for electron-impact excitation of the 2p state of hydrogen.

Lightspeed Magazine interviews Obsidian senior designer Chris Avellone on his "video game author" career, discussing how he got into the industry to begin with, and his work on various titles such as Planescape: Torment, KotOR II and New Vegas.
What were the highlights of the development process of New Vegas?
There were a few things, in no particular order:
Having a chance to play Fallout 3 for research.
The owners brainstorming the (box) for New Vegas in terms of what elements the title should have (Vegas as signature city, start with a reversal from Fallout 3, Fallout elements, etc.).
The first time I saw Dinky the Dinosaur in Fallout: New Vegas and walked into his belly, and then into his mouth to look at the Mojave wasteland.
Getting to meet Felicia Day and getting my Guild DVD signed. And listening to her talk about killing bunnies in Red Dead Redemption.
This is a little random, but marketing support from Bethesda, and how it changed my opinion on game development marketing and how much it can help your title when they are involved early and they understand the title. They didn't just meet us halfway, they did more than I've ever seen a marketing department do in all the companies I've worked with. As an example, one of the first marketing meetings I'd had for the game was very early in the development process, and during the meeting, the head of PR/Marketing said (I'll start playing the builds so I can demo this myself,) which amazed me. Then he did it. You'd be surprised how often marketing doesn't want anything to do with talking about or demoing a title, they leave that to the developers. Bethesda really stepped up in all these aspects.
We also had a marketing plan. This is a rare thing-and even more rare, we had a marketing plan early. This may be a difficult thing for someone outside of game development to realize, but it was a godsend to actually hold it in our hands and know what the future of the product was and how to plan for it.
Getting to write the graphic novel for the game and tell stories about the characters for insights you might not have otherwise seen.and meeting Geof Darrow, the cover artist, and learning that he was going to do the cover for it.
Going to the Goodsprings graveyard at night, looking north, and seeing the lights of New Vegas.
Everything yet to come.

The Lions are absolutely clobbering the Chargers at halftime.
They have a commanding 24-0 lead, their largest of the season, and are halfway to securing their first playoff berth since 1999.
Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford has completed 21-of-26 passes for 260 yards and three touchdowns in the first half. His quarterback rating is 146.8.
He’s thrown scores to tight end Brandon Pettigrew (7 yards), running back Kevin Smith (3) and receiver Calvin Johnson (14).
The Lions defense has allowed just 93 yards in the first half.
Stafford broke Scott Mitchell’s franchise record for passing yards in a season (4,338) on a 30-yard pass to receiver Nate Burleson in the second quarter.

Green Public Procurement (GPP) is a process where public authorities seek to source goods, services or works with a reduced environmental impact. The Government of Ireland’s annual public sector purchasing accounts for 10% to 12% of Ireland’s GDP, a large part of economic activity and demand.
This provides Ireland’s public sector with significant influence to stimulate the provision of more resource-efficient, less polluting goods, services and works within the marketplace.
The public sector has a responsibility to promote green procurement, in order to support Ireland’s environmental and wider sustainable development objectives. GPP is recognised internationally as an effective means for public administrations to manage the balance between cost-effectiveness and sustainable development. Citizens need to be sure that what is purchased on their behalf has minimal harmful effects on the environment and society. At the same time, these goods, services and works must represent both short-term and long-term value for money.
Launched through the Climate Action Plan in 2019, the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform published Circular 20/2019 promoting the use of environmental and social considerations in public procurement. This was followed by Green Procurement Guidance published by the EPA in September 2021 which was designed as a practical tool to assist procurers to build green criteria into public tenders across 10 sectors:
- Energy-related products
- Food and catering services
- Heating equipment
- ICT products and services
- Cleaning products and services
- Indoor and outdoor lighting
- Design, construction and management of office buildings
- Paper products and printing services
- Textile products and services
- Road transport vehicles and services
The Office of Government Procurement has since followed this up by launching an online search tool to support green public procurement in November 2022. This handy online search tool provided through GPPCriteria.gov.ie allows users to rapidly find, select and download GPP criteria relevant to a specific procurement project.
Applicability to Road Design Schemes
TOBIN Consulting Engineers throughout their 70 years in operation have a history of successful delivery of road schemes for both public and private clients. While sustainability has always been a key driving factor to designers on road schemes through reuse of pavement materials and mass haul balancing, GPP will help in the consideration of sustainability even further.
This could be envisaged through the inclusion of smart LED public lighting and road signals to reduce energy costs, specifying requirements that contractors source low-embedded carbon concrete mixes, road constituent mix additives in the form of recycled materials and developments in Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) among others.
We look forward to seeing in TOBIN Consulting Engineers where the progression in sustainable construction takes the industry and look forward to assisting our client’s achieving compliance with Green Public Procurement on Road, Urban Enhancement and Active Travel schemes in the near future.
