As many have heard recently Yahoo just recently ordered all employees that had been working at home to now return to the office. This has caused a lot of upset and controversy with many employees.
For several years, other businesses have had a flexible work arrangement with employees including Bank of America, Amazon, Facebook and Best Buy but most employers have found they get more work production by bringing their employees back to the office for their 8 hours a day.
The benefits of the work at home work … (14 comments)
yahoo: I am Grateful for Electricity
- 11/18/11 02:56 PM
Last night SC Edison turned off our power from 10:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. They had installed new meter a few weeks ago and apparently had to upgrade the transformers in the city. We had been notified that this would be occurring so we had flashlights and candles handy. The power went off at 10:40 p.m. and upset my dogs. I did not sleep well as I keep hearing generators running all night. Sound travels when everything is shut down. I was worried I would oversleep and had an appointment at 8:00 a.m.

Tonight I was outside trying to take some moon photos and much to my surprise the clouds were moving so fast and a red halo surrounded the moon which made it difficult to get clear shots. Later, the halo effect widened. So I researched this for an explanation and here is the Folklore interpretation; “And should the Moon wear a halo of red, a tempest is nigh”. English Translation: A storm is near..
Then I looked up the scientific interpretation and it said “Clouds moving in, cold front off shore, high winds … (25 comments)

yahoo: Halloween Safety....There is no Trick to It
- 10/29/11 05:39 PM
The observance of Halloween, which dates back to Celtic rituals thousands of years ago, has long been associated with images of witches, ghosts, devils and goblins. Over the years, Halloween customs and rituals have changed dramatically. In the United States, the first official citywide Halloween celebration occurred in Anoka, Minnesota, in 1921. Today, many of the young and young-at-heart take a more light-spirited approach. Glowing skeletons and lighted Jack O' Lanterns decorate homes, while children dressed in all kinds of costumes begin flocking out onto neighborhood streets in search of treats. Make this year's holiday extra safe by following … (10 comments)
