You might be able to get your small business off the ground quickly with a clear entrepreneurial vision and exceptional work ethic. However, without commitment and loyalty from your staff, you could fall short of achieving your long-term business goals and never reach cruising altitude.
"Success is really based on how well employees collaborate with each other to meet a common mission or achieve a common vision," says Barry Moltz, an entrepreneur and business consultant who has authored several books on business advice.
a larger group with some staff working remotely, it's important to understand how to manage your employees and create a strong internal team.
1. Hire new employees based on attitude.
Building a strong team can start as early as the hiring process, so it's essential that you select the right people to add to your company. You can teach skills, but you can't teach attitude—and it's nearly impossible to make someone fit in with the rest of the organization.
Before meeting with job candidates, make sure you have a strong sense of your company's culture and work environment. If you don't yet have a grasp on the work culture or you think it may have changed since you last hired, Moltz recommends surveying current employees and asking them to write down adjectives that accurately describe the current culture.
You might also consider having potential hires meet your current staff during the interview process to ensure that their attitudes mesh.
2. Be slow to hire.
Even as your business grows and your workforce expands, you still want to maintain collaboration and teamwork among your employees.
To avoid turbulence with existing employees when bringing in new staff, Moltz recommends being slow to hire new employees. This way, you'll be able to gauge whether new staff members will be productive additions to your organization. You can also minimize friction between existing and new employees by ensuring new hires are properly trained.
3. Encourage collaboration among team members.
It may seem easier to employ a top-down management style, but it could be to your benefit to allow your employees to collaborate with one another. In addition to encouraging project ownership and teamwork, which can lead to better production, this style also means you won't have to be worried about as many day-to-day tasks.
For example, you can ask individuals working together on a project to define their responsibilities and establish the rules for how they will work with one another, Moltz says.
You can also try empowering your employees by letting those who are closest to the action make decisions, suggests Caron Beesley of the U.S. Small Business Administration.
4. Get your employees involved.
If you are working through a problem, creating a job description for a new hire, or brainstorming new ideas for your business, ask your employees for their thoughts and feedback—but only if you are really interested.
5. Plan fun activities that are not work related.
It doesn't matter what the activity is, as long as you are bringing your team together for purposes other than work. Whether you're creating funny videos and putting them on YouTube or getting involved with a nonprofit organization in your community, out-of-work experiences are important for team building.
Just be sure to remember that your employees have lives outside of work. If you are going to do something outside of office hours, Moltz suggests also inviting the spouses or significant others of your employees and planning events that include entire families, like picnics and bring-your-kid-to-work days.
6. Regularly assess your employees, and have them assess themselves.
To better understand the strengths and weaknesses of each person on your team, do a quarterly or biannual evaluation. By regularly meeting with your staff, you'll create a space for open communication and be able to better integrate people into your team by acknowledging the contributions that they make to your business.
The way you encourage team spirit all comes down to being in tune with your company's culture and understanding what types of activities are acceptable. But doing something for your staff is important as well.

Weiner: 'I Just Don't Know' Source of Photo
Hoping to put a scandal over a lewd photo to rest, Rep. Anthony Weiner said Wednesday evening that although he did not recognize the photo, he could not be sure whether it was a picture of himself.
The New York Democrat capped off a day of interviews by appearing on MSNBC's "Rachel Maddow Show." When Maddow asked whether he is shown in the picture, he said, "Am I allowed to say, 'I wish?'"
The photograph of underwear-clad male genitalia was posted on Weiner's Twitter account Friday, touching off one of the more bizarre scandals in recent Congressional history.
Although Weiner appeared to dodge questions in previous interviews about whether he is the subject of the photo, he provided his fullest answer to Maddow. "We don't know for sure. The photo doesn't look familiar to me," he said. "I don't want to say with certitude that it maybe didn't start out as a photograph of mine and now looks different. … I just don't know."
When asked whether the picture could be a private photo that had been inadvertently released or illicitly obtained, Weiner said, "It could be, or it could have been a photograph that's taken out of context or manipulated or changed in some way."
He rejected theories that he was behind the posting and said it was simply a prank. "The simple fact is that what this appears to be is probably what it is," he said. "Someone making fun of my name, someone trying to cause trouble for me, maybe poke fun at me. You know, when your name is Weiner and someone posts a picture like that, the most obvious conclusion is that someone is pranking me and punking me. And I get that."
But Weiner also raised concerns with the scope of the scandal. "I'm kind of concerned how far and wide this conspiracy theory has run," he said, adding that some of his Twitter followers have now found themselves in the public spotlight.

Leeds step up chase for Newcastle goalkeeper Darlow
Date: 19th July 2019 at 6:30am
Leeds United have ramped up their pursuit of Newcastle United goalkeeper Karl Darlow, according to Football Insider.
The reliable news outlet claims that Leeds have made an approach to sign the 28-year-old, who is in the final year of his contract at St James' Park.
It is understood that Leeds are trying to find out whether they can sign the former Nottingham Forest shot-stopper on a loan deal or a permanent one amid doubts surrounding the Elland Road futures of Kiko Casilla and Bailey Peacock-Farrell.
Darlow does not seem to have much of a future at St James' Park. He made just one appearance for Newcastle last season which came in the 3-1 defeat to his former club Nottingham Forest in the Carabao Cup. Martin Dubravka is the undisputed number one on Tyneside and unless the Slovakia international moves on this summer, it would be unlikely for Darlow to get anywhere near to Steve Bruce's first-team plans. As he is in the final year of his contract, Newcastle need to try and get rid of Darlow on a permanent basis this summer if they want to make any kind of money on him. Loaning Darlow out wouldn't be the best idea as that is just accepting that he'd leave for free at the end of next season. Newcastle need to play hardball with Leeds because they've made a profit on their transfers this summer and have money in the bank. If they need a new goalkeeper, they'll have to pay up.

I'm getting 10-15 new followers every day, more interactions on my tweets and even a few sales! After I set up CinchTweet to get articles from my blog, I thought it would just help get some backlinks and help ranking (I think it did that too).

An Intel-built supercomputer that ranks on the TOP500 and Green500 lists has arrived in Las Vegas from Oregon, where it will serve the needs of researchers at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). The 48-node, two-rack "Cherry Creek" supercomputer was built to show off Intel hardware at the 2013 Supercomputing Conference in Denver. Now the computer will live at Switch Supernap, a state-of-the-art colocation data center founded by U Nevada Trustee Rob Roy.
The university expects to use Cherry Creek for research in areas such as genomics and bioinformatics, medical and climate research, molecular modeling and data analytics. A portion of the computer's processing power will also be used for private sector research through a partnership between UNLV and Switch.
"Supercomputers have become an indispensable part of almost every industry. For university researchers, they've increased the speed of analysis and discovery exponentially," said UNLV President Donald Snyder. "Working together with Intel and Switch, UNLV has a tremendous opportunity not only to keep pace with but to play a leading role in big data research and economic development partnerships that require high-performance computing."
Now that the relationship has been forged, Intel is committing to participating in university activities as well, such as guest lectures and other academic programming.
This isn't the first supercomputer the university has had access to. Since 1991 the institution has run the National Supercomputing Center for Energy and the Environment (NSCEE). That facility is run by Executive Director Joseph Lombardo, who, according to coverage in the Las Vegas Review-Journal, wrote the proposal that persuaded Intel to give the computer to the university.
The new system includes components and design elements not just from Intel but also from Bright Computing, CoolIT Systems, Micron Technology and Supermicro. When all pistons are running, it's capable of processing data about seven times faster than UNLV's supercomputing center currently allows.
Although Switch will host the machinery, UNLV staff will maintain and optimize Cherry Creek, schedule computing resources among UNLV and partner researchers and update the supercomputer as new technology becomes available.
"Having access to this technology will enhance and expand UNLV's current research programs and will act as a catalyst for new emerging research interests such as big data analytics," said Lombardo. "Additionally, having this special resource will enhance the educational experience for a diverse set of top-quality graduate and undergraduate students while playing an important role in faculty recruitment."

Framingham focused on filling unpaid school meal debt
Scott O'Connell/Daily News staff
School officials are praising a new scholarship program that helped feed 50 students this past year.
But the problem of elementary school students not paying for meals continued to grow this past year, and one school official said the district is running out of ideas.
"We continue to look at and explore what other places are doing," said school business director Edward Gotgart. "There just doesn't seem to be an answer."
The total amount of unpaid meal debt has changed little over the past few years, and continues to hover around $40,000, he said. While students at the middle schools and high school have gradually paid up in response to the district's recent crackdown, elementary school students' debt has increased despite several initiatives aimed at helping needy families obtain financial assistance.
School officials credit the district's participation in a state virtual gateway program, which automatically identifies students eligible for free and reduced lunches, for boosting participation in that federally funded program from the low 30 percent range to about 40 percent in more than year.
A new scholarship provided by La Cantina Restaurant in Framingham contributed another $12,000 this past year to provide free meals to 45 families. The program was aimed at households that fell just outside of the eligibility for free and reduced lunch.
"This scholarship is helping us get those kids just above that line," said School Committee member Michael Bower. "These aren't people looking for handouts, but who are living on the edge."
Gotgart said the restaurant's owners, the Mencoboni family, have indicated they're willing to continue funding the scholarship, which the district quickly exhausted this past year.
"We had many, many requests," he said. "We had to make some tough decisions about who got it and who didn't."
Aside from pushing for more outreach to families with delinquent meal accounts, the district doesn't have many options to deal with the rest of the elementary school population who aren't paying for lunches.
Gotgart said the issue ultimately comes down to a moral dilemma, as school officials have consistently said their policy is to never deny a meal to a hungry student.
"We continue to be stuck between a rock and a hard place," he said.

FLINT – Here we go again. Another potential massive shake up with how Google structures their index and trust me on this, it will have an impact on your site's rankings! Google is taking mobile-friendly to a new level.
All of this has to do with the seismic shift people are making to mobile. For the first time, according to an article by Search Engine Land there are more searches performed on a mobile device (phone or tablet) than from a desktop.
We've know about the growth of mobile and Google's priority for this channel, for a while now. But, like many things in business, everyone seems to have been a bit slow to react.
Well, the time is here, and it's going to be more important than ever for you to take e a serious look at your digital marketing strategy (yup, pull it out of that drawer and dust it off) and update the mobile chapter.
I'm going to get into exactly what has been happening, recently, with Google's mobile focus and what you should be doing to prepare for what is about to happen.
But, first, let's take a second to review how Google works. Don't leave just yet; this will be a really quick and simple overview.
Google uses web-crawlers (bots) to discover and index trillions of web pages across the web. The process of the bot is to crawl a page, identify the topic of the page (via the content and code) and then follow the links on that page to another page (the page the link pointed to) and then repeat that same process again on the new page. At its core, a really simple process.
After the bot digests the information on a web page, the information on that web page is then entered into Google's index which well over 100 million gigabytes, in size.
Just to put this into some perspective. The storage space on my laptop is about 500 gigabyte. Google's index would require 200,000 of these laptops to hold it!
The current index was developed and has evolved in a desktop world which, as it is turning out, may not be well suited for a world that is quickly becoming dominated by mobile usage.
Back in April of `15 Google released a huge mobile-friendly algorithm update that was built to give a boost to web pages in Google's index, for mobile search results. In fact, this algorithm update was so big, larger than either the Panda update or the Penguin update, it's been referred to as Mobilegeddon!
And, here's the thing. Google told us that this was coming!
With this algorithm update, Google is looking at websites on a page-by-page basis to see if they are mobile-friendly. The algorithm then makes the determination that the page either is mobile-friendly or it isn't mobile-friendly. There are no partially mobile-friendly pages. The pages on your site are deemed straight up yes or no.
As if this algorithm wasn't enough, in May of `16 Google announced that they are going to boost the effects of this algorithm, increasing the impact of the mobile-friendly ranking signal.
Essentially, if your website's pages are deemed not to be mobile-friendly, your search rank is going to take a hit!
Now, let's take a look at Google's most current revelation on this topic of mobile search. At Pubcon, Gary Illyes, a webmaster trends analysis with Google, told everyone that Google is creating a separate mobile index, within the coming months.
Gary then went on to indicate that this new and separate index may actually become the primary index with the desktop index (the current index) actually becoming the secondary index.
Being relegated to secondary index status means that the desktop index won't be updated with the same frequency as the primary index, or most likely, the same frequency that it has been updated, to this point.
So, the first question you're probably asking is, Why? Why is Google shaking everything up like this?
It all is coming back to what Google has been telling us for a couple of years, now. They are absolutely committed to ensuring that users have a positive experience, not just on Google's site, but on any site that shows up high in Google's rankings.
Because of the amazing growth of mobile usage, Google's user experience is now laser-focused on making sure that users have a great mobile experience, as well.
So, with that being said, and with the fact that a majority of searches are now happening on a mobile device, it really kind of makes sense that Google is doing this.
Another reason that Google is moving toward a mobile index is really for data integrity. It seems that some of the data that Google feels is important for mobile ranking signals can't be properly supported (ambiguity intended by Google) with the current index structure.
Now, you're probably saying…Great information but now what?
Find out if your site is considered to be mobile-friendly by Google's standards. Here is a link to Google's mobile-friendly testing tool that will test your site to tell if it's mobile-friendly.
If it isn't mobile-friendly get in-touch with your agency and get your site brought up to standards as fast as you can! But, do it the right way! Here's what Google has to say about how to create a mobile-friendly website.
If it is mobile-friendly, again by Google's standards, then move to updating your digital strategy to include a mobile marketing strategy that will better align with Google's mobile-friendly priorities.
If your site is mobile-friendly and your strategy is up-to-date with Google's mobile priorities then pat yourself on the back and go get a cup of coffee!

George H.W. Bush's funeral services stand as America's goodbye to the Greatest Generation
Susan Page
HOUSTON – The funeral service for George H.W. Bush at his hometown church Thursday was a farewell to a friend, a neighbor and a former president, to be sure.
And to a generation.
"George Bush was a charter member of the Greatest Generation," his closest friend, former Secretary of State James Baker, declared in his eulogy. "His incredible service to the nation and the world is already etched in the marble of time."
A day earlier, at Washington's National Cathedral, historian Jon Meacham called Bush "America's last great soldier-statesman, a 20th-century founding father," one in a line of presidents "who believed in causes larger than themselves." Bush was the last president to have served in combat.
It was author and TV anchor Tom Brokaw who dubbed it the Greatest Generation, the Americans who had survived the Great Depression and then fought in World War II. That conflict was the formative experience for many, including George Herbert Walker Bush, a son of privilege from Greenwich, Connecticut. His determination to accomplish something big in his life, something meaningful, was fueled when he survived being shot down over the Pacific and his two crew members didn't.
Bush was one of the youngest Navy pilots when he enlisted on his 18th birthday, in 1942. He ended up living to age 94, old enough to see many of the classmates from his prep school and the men in his squadron and his colleagues in Congress pass away.
He died last week at his home here, a few blocks from the spired church he had attended for a half-century.
At the National Cathedral service Wednesday, former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney described a small wooden plaque Bush once showed him on the oceanside wall of his summer home in Kennebunkport, Maine. It was inscribed with a pilot's acronym that summed up his approach to life: "CAVU," for "Ceiling and Visibility Unlimited."
At the St. Martin's Episcopal Church service Thursday, the friend who made the plaque was sitting in the pews.
Dan Gillcrist was a junior business executive and a former submariner when he volunteered for Bush's early Senate campaign, a travel aide to the candidate as he crisscrossed the state. Years later, when they saw each other at the funeral for another Navy man, Bush admired the CAVU sign placed near his casket and asked Gillcrist, an amateur wood craftsman, to make one for him.
Gillcrist ended up making several of them for Bush over the next decade or so to display in his homes and give as gifts to foreign dignitaries and others. He understood why the phrase meant so much to the former president.
"To the young Navy carrier pilot Lt. j.g. George H.W. Bush, the expression 'CAVU' took on greater meaning following the war," Gillcrist said. "I believe that a great many of our 'boys' coming home safe and sound from the crucible of that war felt the same as George Bush." They were grateful to have escaped death when many of their friends didn't. The lesson they learned: "Every new day is going to be a gift I will not squander."
The service at the cathedral Wednesday had been grand and global, five presidents and dozens of foreign dignitaries in attendance.

The service at the church Thursday had a cozier feel, though every seat was taken. The tributes were delivered by Baker, his best friend, and by George P. Bush, his oldest grandson and the one who carries his name.
"He often talked about the timeless creed of duty, honor, country – the values that have sustained the republic," said Bush, now the land commissioner of Texas, the only grandchild who has followed the man he calls "Gamps" into elective office. "But that wasn't something he just talked about. It was something he lived."
George H.W. Bush had moved back to Houston after the worst political defeat of his life, crushed after losing the White House to Bill Clinton, a man he then saw as undeserving of the Oval Office, although they later became close friends. When he and his wife, Barbara, landed at Ellington Air Force Base in late afternoon on that difficult Inauguration Day in 1993, they had been cheered by the sight of store signs welcoming them and well-wishers lining the route to the house they had rented while a new one was being built for them.
They never forgot one couple standing on the bed of their pickup, parked by the side of the road, holding a handwritten sign that said "Welcome Home."
On Thursday, there were well-wishers again along the route of the special Union Pacific train that carried Bush's casket from suburban Houston to College Station, Texas.
Trains had provided the transportation for Bush when he left for aviator training at various naval bases, and when he came home after seeing combat for a wartime wedding to Barbara Pierce of Rye, New York. On Thursday, on his final journey, it was a train that carried him to his burial plot near his presidential library, on the grounds of Texas A & M. He was to be buried next to his wife of 73 years and daughter Robin, who died in 1953 at age 3 of leukemia.
The night before the National Cathedral service, when Bush's body was lying in repose at the Capitol Rotunda, there was the most poignant reminder of the Greatest Generation, and their passing.
Former Kansas Senator Bob Dole arrived in the Capitol Rotunda to pay his respects to a one-time political rival who became a close friend, and a fellow veteran of World War II. The effort it took for Dole, 95, to stand from his wheelchair was etched in his face.
The wounds he had suffered in battle so many decades ago robbed him of the use of his right arm. So he raised his left hand in a final salute.

Nigerian teachers' union threatens nationwide strike over increasing threats
ABUJA — The national union of Nigerian teachers on Tuesday threatened to down tools over recent attacks on schools, including Friday's abduction of students in the country's northwestern state of Katsina.
Recent attacks have posed a threat to the lives of teachers and students, the Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT) said in a statement, in response to the attack on the Government Science Secondary School in Kankara, in which more than 300 students went missing. The latest attack in Katsina "sent shivers through the spine of other members" of the union in the academic community, the union noted.
On Dec. 1, the headteacher of a primary school in the southern state of Edo, identified as Alu Ola Paul, was kidnapped by gunmen on his way to work and released six days later, said the NUT. On Dec. 8, two female teachers at a secondary school in the Effurun area of the oil-rich Delta State were also allegedly kidnapped within their school premises by armed bandits and have yet to be released, the teachers' union recalled. "In light of these recent developments, the NUT may be compelled to down tools, pending when it is safe for our members to teach and guide our pupils and students without fear of abduction by these faceless enemies of educational prosperity of the Nigerian nation," said the statement.
Meanwhile, the NUT called on the government at all levels to ensure adequate security and 24-hour surveillance around schools. "These incidences are sad reminders of previous ugly events in Chibok and Dapchi, where Boko Haram terrorists had attacked and abducted students, creating a monumental disruption of school activities and impeding our nation's educational growth and advancement while subjecting family members and relatives to unimaginable trauma," the NUT said.
Katsina State Governor Aminu Masari on Monday confirmed that government negotiators are already in touch with kidnappers of the students, refusing to disclose details of the negotiations as the authorities were trying to protect the victims and secure their release.
