The Most Common Employer Personality Tests: The Big Five, Myers-Briggs, and More
When HR departments are bombarded with hundreds or even thousands of applications for a single position, scanning through each and every resume can seem impossible. In order to find candidates that are suitable for at least an interview, employers often have to add a few extra steps to their hiring process.
That's where personality tests can be helpful. (And no, I'm not talking about those cute quizzes in Tiger Beat to find out which Jonas brother was your soulmate.)
Pre-Employment Personality Tests
These days, many employers require candidates to take personality assessment tests in order to determine a potential fit.
This actually makes quite a lot of sense for both the employer and the candidate. If an employee is hired for a position that isn't well-suited to his or her personality, chances are they will be less engaged with their work, which means lower productivity and higher turnover—and this costs employers time and money.
Still, some controversy surrounds the use of certain personality tests for hiring purposes, as psychologists speculate the degree to which they can truly predict job performance.
But since these tests remain popular among hiring personnel, you may want to familiarize yourself with some of the most popular hiring tests, whether you're on the job hunt or trying to recruit new talent.
1. The Big Five Personality Test
The Big Five is a questionnaire that is usually comprised of questions regarding an individual's preferences and style. Instead of simple "yes" or "no" options, you'll be able to choose from a scale of "strongly disagree" to "strongly agree."
The "big five" traits that will be measured are:
Openness to experience
Extraversion
Agreeableness
Rather than classifying individuals as strictly one or the other, the Big Five test ranks you on a spectrum of 0-100 for each trait (so one could easily land somewhere in the middle).
According to a study published in Perspectives in Psychological Science, researchers found that when it comes to the Big Five model, the most-sought trait by employers was conscientiousness (which includes being dependable, persevering, and orderly). The second most desired trait was agreeableness (found in those who are cooperative, tolerant, and flexible).
Is the Big Five Test Reliable?
Desired personality traits can vary depending on the job in question. For example, for a marketing role, employers might seek someone who is very extraverted and can easily connect with people. For a data entry position, however, employees will likely prefer a candidate who is less chatty and focuses on their tasks.
Still, it's probably safe to bet that most employers would hire a candidate who is dependable, cooperative, and somewhat flexible (therefore conscientious and agreeable) over someone who is flaky and stubborn.
Because of the flexibility offered by the test itself (measuring individuals on a scale instead of matching them definitively with one trait or the other), the Big Five Personality Test is one of the more dependable models when it comes to predicting job fit and performance.
Take the Big Five test to see how you rank for each trait!
2. Myers-Briggs Type Indicator
If you ever took a high school or university psychology class, you probably took this test and were matched with a four-letter personality type. (Any fellow INTJ's out there?)
In the American version, the Myers-Briggs test features 93 questions with only two answers to choose from. Your response determines which tendencies you lean towards out of the following categories:
Extrovert (E) or Introvert (I)
Sensing (S) or Intuition (N)
Thinking (T) or Feeling (F)
Judging (J) or Perceiving (P)
There are sixteen possible types that can emerge from combinations of these categories. As an INTJ, for example, I tend to be introverted, rely on my intuition, make decisions based on logic over feelings, and judge things (and sometimes people) critically.
Is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Reliable?
While it can be incredibly fun to research your type and see how scarily accurate the description is, the Myers-Briggs indicator may not be the best predictor of how well a candidate will fit in a position. Unlike the Big Five test, the answers are not scaled and cannot be easily compared between candidates.
In fact, Myers-Briggs itself issued a statement discouraging the use of its test for hiring selections: "People of many different types excel at the same job for different reasons. Individuals should not be pigeonholed based on their personality preferences."
Instead, the test could potentially be a good indicator of how a candidate will work in a group—but the result still shouldn't be a deciding factor.
3. The Caliper Test
The Caliper Test is a multiple-choice test with 180 questions designed to gather information about a candidate's natural strengths and potential for success in a particular role. However, unlike many other personality tests, the Caliper offers several different types of questions, which is why it is recognized as one of the most comprehensive and accurate assessments available.
Examples of question types include:
Choosing which in a series of statements best reflects your point of view
Choosing statements that least reflect your point of view
True/false questions
Multiple choice questions based on your level of agreement
The Caliper Test assesses four primary areas:
Persuasiveness and leadership skills
Problem-solving and decision-making
Personal organization and time management
In addition, employers can also customize the test to target traits and behaviors that are important to them, which could better help to determine a candidate's fit for a certain role.
Is the Caliper Test reliable?
Since it offers one of the most comprehensive overviews of a candidate's personality when compared with other tests, the Caliper Test has been widely recognized as a leading hiring test for over 50 years.
4. The 16 Personality Factor Questionnaire
The 16 Personality Factor Questionnaire, also known as the 16PF, measures 16 personality factors on a scale in order to help predict one's work performance and behavior. The latest edition features 185 multiple choice questions and asks about specific situations to assess behavior and interests. Response options range from "strongly disagree" to "strongly agree."
The personality factors measured in the 16PF test include:
Social boldness
Abstractedness
Apprehension
Openness to change
Rule-consciousness
The test was designed to help employers predict things like how much a candidate relates to others, their level of independence, thinking style, flexibility, and ability to manage stress. The 16 traits that are measured are considered sub-traits of the "Big Five."
Is the 16PF reliable?
Results of a candidate's 16PF test can easily be compared with others, since traits are measured on a scale (much like the Big Five). While it reveals personality traits, the 16PF is an overall better indicator of job performance when compared with tests like the Myers-Briggs Indicator.
5. Hogan Personality Inventory
The Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI) contains 266 true or false and agree/disagree questions that must be answered within 20 minutes—which means candidates have to be pretty instinctive with their answers.
The test assesses a candidate's personality along 7 scales:
Adjustment (self-confidence, performance under pressure)
Ambition (initiative, competitiveness)
Sociability
Interpersonal sensitivity
Inquisitiveness
Learning approach
The HPI can also predict work performance and potential by measuring 6 occupational scales:
Stress tolerance
Clerical potential
Sales potential
Managerial potential
Is the Hogan Personality Index Reliable?
Although it was originally designed for socio-analytical context in the 1980s, the HPI is now considered a consistent and reliable tool for evaluating a candidate's job compatibility.
Should Personality Tests Be Used For Hiring?
While they can be helpful tools for determining a candidate's potential fit with a company, there are several factor to consider when evaluating the effectiveness of personality tests in the hiring process.
First, when candidates realize they are being asked to take a test or assessment, they may be more likely to respond with the answers they believe the company wants, rather than the answers that actually reflect their beliefs. This would completely defeat the test's purpose.
Second, there is a risk that candidates can get "stuck" on their scores or assigned traits, and therefore limit their own growth potential.
For example, if a candidate is told by a personality test that he scores low on leadership, he or she may come to accept this as an innate quality that they cannot change. As a result, they may be less motivated to strive for promotions or perform at a higher level.
Are Personality Tests Ethical?
Overall, personality tests can still be useful additions to a company's hiring process, when viewed alongside other more concrete factors, such as proven skills and experience. They can offer insight to an individual's work style or even indicate other areas of potential, which can help with formulating long-term goals for employees.

KKH is the first hospital in South East Asia to introduce the Needle crystal Technology of image capture for our X-rays of babies, doubling the spatial resolution (see structures much more clearly) whilst halving the radiation dose to these very sensitive patients.
KKH is the first hospital in South East Asia to have a "one-stop shop" Breast Centre that includes a Breast Imaging Unit. The Breast Imaging Unit was the first in Singapore to have entirely digital mammography using the double sided computed radiographic plate system. KKH is also the first hospital in the World to have this linked to a Computer Aided Detection system to improve detection rates.
KKH is the first paediatric hospital in the world and the first restructured hospital in Singapore to install the 64 multi-slice scanner, the latest in computed tomography (CT) technology.
Compared to previous scanners, the new scanner uses a lower dose of radiation for most examinations. Even so, it can image most organs in less than 10 seconds, with higher image quality and clearer anatomical visualisation.
With the fast scan time, the need to sedate patients, especially children, has been reduced by 66%. Where sedation is necessary, only a low dosage is required, greatly increasing patient safety, comfort and cost.
The higher resolution helps doctors in their diagnoses; the fast turnaround time can also lead to quicker intervention.
The fast speed and imaging capability of the CT scanner has enabled us, for the first time in Asia, to view congenital heart disease using 64-slice technology, which gives the best resolution for babies with complex congenital heart disease.

In the 1920s and 1930s, in the Quality Universe, the post-World War I hellscape of Europe spawned a significant number of Central European dictatorships, including: Aryania, Barbaria, Bothnia, Darmania, Dunland, Govania, Jarmania, Kampfland, Latavia, Nordicha, North Germany, Tuvania, Wurtberg, and others. When the Second World War began in earnest, all of these countries were not only admitted to the Axis Powers, but politically annexed and absorbed into Hitler's Nazi Germany. After WWII, none of these nations existed again.
In 1940, the Aryanian military staged an ambitious operation at Devil's Island, off the coast of French Guiana, under the direction of Ernst Huller. An invasion was planned, featuring a personal visit from Aryania's Leader. Huller had unluckily drawn attention to himself, however, by kidnapping two close associates of the American super-hero Doll Man, who soon arrived in Guiana, disrupted all of Huller's operations, and called in a USAAF bomber raid from Trinidad. Huller was captured alive; Aryanian forces were never again seen in South America.

Donald Trump has proposed a compromise to reopen the federal government which would provide extensions to protections for certain undocumented immigrants in exchange for $ 5.7bn (£4.4bn) to fund a wall along the US-Mexico border. Under the president's plan, migrants who arrived to the country at a young age and qualified for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals programme (Daca), as well as other immigrants under Temporary Protected Status (TPS), would receive extensions to their protections from deportation. "If we are successful in this effort, we will have the best chance … At real, bipartisan immigration reform," the president said, before outlining the proposal he says received input from border security professionals.

(3) TELL THE OTHER PARENT: Inform the other parents that their child has committed the crime of cyber bullying. Send them the evidence, ask them to get their child to delete the posts. Inform them if the content is not taken down, or if anything else appears you will file a report with the police for cyber bullying.
(4) APPROACH THE BULLY: Depending on the age of the child, if in junior high or older, send them a message saying they are committing the act of cyber bullying and to immediately remove all posts and refrain from doing it in the future otherwise you will report them to the police for cyber bullying.
(5) APPROACH OTHER PEOPLE: If the posts were on someone else's wall or on a picture that was posted, send a message to that person asking for the negative posts to be removed. Advise them the act of cyber bullying was committed and they have a responsibility to protect others online and to shut down cyber bullying if it's happening on their account even if it's someone else that is instigating it.
(7) TALK TO THE SCHOOL & EXTRA CURRICULAR PROGRAMS: Make sure the cyber bullying is not spilling over into other areas of your child's life. If they are being cyber bullied, it is likely they are being bullied somewhere else. Take the evidence to the school and to the program coordinator of any extra-curricular programs your child and the bully attends - ask them to protect your child while in their care, and to report any incidents immediately.
(8) INSTILL CONFIDENCE IN YOUR CHILD: One of the most important things you can do is tell your child to not take it personally. As much as it hurts, educate them that bullies usually have personal problems that leads them to hurt others and if your child were to watch the bully, he/she is bullying others to. Give lots of love and positive affirmations over your child's life and have them understand there is nothing wrong with them. Healthy minded people respect others, insecure troubled people bully others.
(9) POSITIVE EXPERIENCES & RELATIONSHIPS: Spend time with your child doing fun, positive activities. Give them experiences that bring them joy and confidence. Get them involved with activities they are good in and positively encourage them to work hard and do their best. Surround your family with positive people, where there is mutual respect and appreciation in the relationships. The more you build up your child's life with positive influences, the better they will be able to deal with unpleasant experiences in their life.
(10) REPORT & SEEK HELP: If the cyber bullying continues, report the bully to the police and school authorities. Meanwhile, your child's mental health is of utmost importance. If the cyber bullying is emotionally harming your child to the point it is crippling him/her, seek professional help from a family councilor.
One last point: We as adults need to set the tone and behavior of appropriate online conduct. We are the role models so we must demonstrate being a good cyber friend and using the internet and social media for good. This means refrain from online complaining against others, including brands, companies and individuals. There is nothing wrong with sharing your opinion, just do it in a respectful manner.

A Loganair charter flight had to return and make an emergency landing at Rotterdam The Hague Airport in the Netherlands on September 30.
The Saab 340 aircraft, carrying 17 passengers, departed for Aberdeen, Scotland, but had to turn back shortly afterwards due to a hydraulic leak. Passengers reported seeing red fluid leaking out from the aircraft's wing.
According to an airline spokesperson, "The aircraft landed safely at the airport around 4.35pm local time where it was brought to a halt, but subsequently rolled just off the runway due to an issue with the hydraulics." The passengers had to jump out of the emergency exits.
The airline arranged a replacement service for the passengers.

'Some famous names are deadly serious about e-sports and have spent a bomb on a new home racing simulator'
Lockdown reminds us how good it feels to get in a car - real or otherwise
by: Richard Meaden
As I write this we're well into the sixth (or is it the seventh?) week of UK lockdown. There's a faint glimmer of hope that by the time you read this we will have begun to regain a little of our old routines and freedoms, but for now life remains in a weird kind of stasis.
I'm thankful the virus has so far failed to affect anyone close to me and hope beyond hope this remains the case. Likewise, not having a pack of increasingly fractious kids to home school would seem an increasing blessing. Work is problematic insomuch as I'd be hard-pushed to describe driving a supercar to Wales as essential travel. Do I miss driving? Hell. Yes. Not just the silly work-related stuff either. If there's an upside to being rationed to essential journeys it's that I've been reminded how nice it is to just get in a car (any car), get out into the world and take control of your destiny. Even if it's just for a few blissful miles.
As lockdown continues I think we're all slowly coming to the realisation that not only will the exit be gradual, but that any re-emergence of the virus will probably lead to a return to some degree of confinement. It's this open-ended uncertainty I find hardest to deal with, because it denies us the pleasure and distraction of making future plans or taking spontaneous trips out. Given all this, it's hardly any wonder that beyond our own four walls strange things appear to be happening in the wider car community. I know social media means we have a tendency to live inside our own little bubbles, but from what I can tell, lockdown has proved to be a boom time for retailers of racing simulators, Tamiya R/C models and podcast recording equipment.
> Best driving games out now
Of these I've never had the patience to build an R/C car, let alone wait for the batteries to recharge. As for podcasts, despite having more available time than I've ever had in my adult life I seem to have gone cold on lockdown listening, largely because I always settled into them on long drives. Still, at least this means there'll be plenty to catch up with when we do get back in our cars.
What I have found myself drawn towards is online racing. Despite being an avid user of Gran Turismo throughout the late-'90s and noughties, as yet I haven't returned to it as I've been in the very fortunate position of being able to gorge myself on driving real road and race cars. Denied the chance to do any meaningful road miles, though, and with the increasing likelihood of all racing being cancelled this season, I'm really beginning to itch. Clearly I'm not alone. The rise and rise of e-sports was happening before Covid, but when everyone is shut indoors and all motorsport is on hold, it's no wonder people start reaching for a virtual fix.
Current Formula 1 drivers can be found competing in the official F1 Virtual Grand Prix races, which are standing in for every postponed Grand Prix. They're just for fun, and admittedly not everyone is taking part – I would imagine Kimi is spending lockdown playing the Withnail and I drinking game – but it exposes the majority of the present-day F1 grid as active gamers.
Part of me finds this a bit sad. Not least because I'm from a generation for whom racing heroes were untouchable, god-like characters to be placed on pedestals, not found lurking in online gaming lounges racing strangers with Vitamin D deficiencies and vaguely sinister gamertags. But part of me also acknowledges there's something extraordinary about going wheel-to-wheel with Max Verstappen. I don't yet have a home sim or gaming rig (hint, hint) so can't claim to be an active participant in the e-sports scene. However, I have been following professional and retired former pros 'racing' one another in 'Legends Trophy' invitation grids hosted by The Race as part of its All-Star Esports Battle series.
I have to say it was an entirely authentic spectacle. That's to say it looked like a lot more fun to be racing rather than just watching. But there's considerable novelty value in seeing famous names racing in DFV-powered F1 cars. Especially when you know from their social media feeds that most are actually deadly serious and some have just spent a bomb on a new home sim. Highlights for me were seeing the ever-contrary Jacques Villeneuve race to an impressive 6th-place finish using nothing fancier than an Xbox hand controller and a laptop. Likewise Emanuele Pirro storming to a reverse-grid victory using an ancient gaming wheel and a TV balanced on a shoebox.
Whether the vaguely chaotic spectacle of revered F1, IndyCar, Le Mans and touring car legends shamelessly firing one another off, settling old scores and discovering they still can't beat Jenson Button survives beyond lockdown remains to be seen. For now, though, it's a bit of light relief and perhaps a pointer to how we engage with fast driving for the foreseeable future.

WASHINGTON • President Donald Trump vowed on Tuesday to remain a steadfast partner of Saudi Arabia despite saying that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman may have known about the plan to murder journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
Defying intense pressure from US lawmakers to impose tougher sanctions on Saudi Arabia, Mr Trump also said he would not cancel military contracts with the kingdom. He said it would be a foolish move that would only benefit Russia and China, competitors of the United States in the arms market.
Mr Trump said US intelligence agencies are still studying the evidence surrounding Mr Khashoggi's killing inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul and who planned it. Since the Oct 2 murder, Mr Trump has taken varying positions on how to react, including possible sanctions.
But on Tuesday, Mr Trump stressed Saudi Arabia's weapons purchases and its role in keeping world oil prices low as influencing his decision.
"It is all about, for me, very simple. It is America first," Mr Trump said, adding: "I am not going to destroy the world economy and I am not going to destroy the economy for our country by being foolish with Saudi Arabia."
Punishing Saudi Arabia, Mr Trump said, would put at risk US$110 billion (S$151 billion) in military sales to Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon and other military contractors as well as US$340 billion in other investments, which the Saudis have agreed to make since he became president.
Speaking at the White House to reporters before departing for Florida, Mr Trump said of the possibility that the Saudi Crown Prince had a hand in the murder: "Maybe he did, maybe he didn't."
It could very well be that the Crown Prince had knowledge of this tragic event - maybe he did and maybe he didn't. We may never know all of the facts surrounding the murder of Mr Jamal Khashoggi. In any case, our relationship is with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
He also argued that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) had not made a definitive determination.
His comments contradicted the CIA, which believes that Mr Khashoggi's death was ordered directly by the Crown Prince, Saudi Arabia's de facto ruler.
Mr Trump was accused by Democratic lawmakers of undermining his own intelligence agencies and failing to confront Saudi Arabia over a human rights atrocity.
Democratic and Republican lawmakers have urged Mr Trump to drop his support for Prince Mohammed over the Khashoggi case, but the President has been reluctant to do so.
Mr Trump said on Tuesday that both Saudi Arabia's King Salman and Prince Mohammed "vigorously deny any knowledge of the planning or execution of the murder", and that the truth may never be known.
After offering numerous contradictory explanations for the disappearance of Mr Khashoggi, Riyadh said last week that he had been killed and his body dismembered when negotiations to convince him to return to Saudi Arabia failed. It said allegations that the Crown Prince had ordered the killing were false.
Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said in Washington on Tuesday that Turkey was not entirely satisfied with the level of cooperation it was receiving from Riyadh on Mr Khashoggi's murder and may seek a formal United Nations inquiry.
Republican and Democratic leaders of the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee said they had asked Mr Trump for a second human rights probe over the killing of the journalist.
Similarly, Representative Francis Rooney, a Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said Washington should apply the Magnitsky Act to those responsible for Mr Khashoggi's death. The law freezes US assets of human rights violators and prohibits Americans from doing business with them.
Mr Trump said Saudi Arabia, a major oil producer, was an important business partner and a great ally in the fight against Iranian power in the Middle East.
"The United States intends to remain a steadfast partner of Saudi Arabia to ensure the interests of our country, Israel and all other partners in the region," Mr Trump said.
On Twitter, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said: "Mr Trump bizarrely devotes the first paragraph of his shameful statement on Saudi atrocities to accuse Iran of every sort of malfeasance he can think of."
Mr Khashoggi, a critic of the Saudi government, lived in the US and was a Washington Post columnist. He went to the consulate to collect documents for a planned marriage.
Mr Trump has placed the alliance with Saudi Arabia at the heart of his Middle East policy, and it was the first country he visited after becoming president last year.

Larsa Pippen Captions Son Justin Her Twin In A Selfie
by Gossip Whiz April 2, 2021, 12:00 am 1.9k Views
Diamonds are a girls best friend https://t.co/GcMmdqVsWy pic.twitter.com/Rt0S905brT
— Larsa Pippen (@larsapippen) December 28, 2020
Larsa Pippen has a look-alike of her own: Justin, the 'RHOM' alum's other son!
She has an honorary twin in the form of Justin Pippen, her 16-year-old son! Larsa shared a nice selfie with her son on April 1, which she shared on Instagram. The 46-year-old Real Housewives of Miami alum captioned the photo, "Me and my twin." The uncanny similarity between the two was clear to fans. One fan agreed with Larsa's caption and simply wrote, "Truth," while another wrote, "Twins."
Some fans said Justin was more like his father, Scottie Pippen, a 55-year-old Chicago Bulls alum. One fan wrote, "Def daddy twin," while another wrote, "No, he is not your twin; he looks just like his dad." This also shows how much Justin resembles both his famous mother and father.
When Larsa shared a picture with Preston, 19, and his older brother, Scotty Pippen Jr., 20, on March 28, it convinced fans that the 19-year-old was Scottie's twin. The trio was out having fun as a family at a restaurant, and fans could make comparisons between Scottie and Preston in the comments section.
Larsa and Scottie married in 1997, but they divorced in 2015. Scottie filed for divorce in 2016, but they reconciled briefly in 2017. However, in 2018, they split up again, and Larsa filed for divorce.
Larsa later went on to date Minnesota Timberwolves player Malik Beasley, 24, whom she met in public for the first time in November 2020. Larsa said Malik was "separated" from his ex-girlfriend Montana Yao, 23 before they met, but Montana stated this was "100% false" in December 2020. Montana filed for divorce the following month after Larsa and Malik's PDA images went viral.
The TV Personality Was Also "So Depressed" As Her Legs Got Injured
This isn't the best way to start the week! Larsa Pippen announced on Tuesday, March 30, that she had injured her leg via Instagram. "Cried a lot today. I can't believe I can't walk; I'm so depressed," she captioned a picture of herself with her legs raised and crutches nearby.
Pippen, 46, sustained the injury after sharing a since-deleted video of herself and her friends. She was diving into the ocean from a yacht. When her two friends had to pull her out of the water. She said she was in tears from the pain.
The Real Housewives of Miami alum has since shared a new video to her Instagram Stories in which she flaunted a "new present" — a red Porsche. She remained tight-lipped on who gave it to her.
Pippen's Link With Beasley
Pippen has been linked to Malik Beasley recently. Larsa and Beasley, both 24, made headlines in December 2020 after images of them holding hands surfaced. At the time, Pippen was married to Montana Yao, but he said that he was no longer with his estranged wife when their relationship started.
Yao, a son of Makai with the Minnesota Timberwolves player, filed for divorce less than a week after the images surfaced on social media. In March 2020, the pair married.
On a February 13 episode of Hollywood Unlocked With Jason, Pippen, 46, said of Beasley's case, "We had talked about it." "It wasn't a covert operation."
"When I first saw him, I googled them, and they weren't together," she said. They had problems in the past. I wasn't worried about it because it had nothing to do with me."
A Minnesota court ruled on Yao's "temporary" requests on Monday, March 29, while Beasley moved to determine paternity for their 2-year-old son.
Beasley "now contests paternity" and took the test to determine if he is Makai's biological parent, according to court documents gathered by Us Weekly.
According to the court papers, Yao "contends that Husband [Malik] is the biological father of the child," but "no Acknowledgment of Parentage has been signed, and Husband has not been adjudicated the child's father."
Steven A. Haney, the Minnesota Timberwolves player's counsel, exclusively told Us on Tuesday, March 30, that the paternity test was "taken last week." "According to the fact and circumstances surrounding these parties' relationship and lifestyle, it would have been irresponsible not to have one performed," he said. If he is determined to be the biological father, he will obey the court's order. To issue the order, it was essential to identify the paternity."
Larsa Pippen Has A Fascinating Dating History
On Tuesday, the model's representative told Us exclusively that her estranged husband "did want a paternity test and took the test." "It's funny for her that he's demanded a paternity test because he's declared Makai to be his son on social media the whole time, and he knows it's his son."
Meanwhile, Pippen declared her separation from Scottie Pippen, a former professional basketball player, in 2018.
Larsa expressed disappointment for how public her relationship with Beasley became. As it first started, in light of the recent controversy. "I wish that hadn't happened. What good would it do me to take a beating over a guy I'd just started talking to?" Jason Lee was the one who found out. "I feel like I need to do a better job of keeping my situation private. I had no intention of making this situation public, but it just happened that way."
The mother of four with her estranged husband, 55 added that "everyone finally moves on,". Larsa and Beasley have managed to do that.

After the Pioneer days we stopped by Daddy's lot. Nana and Papaw's house is coming along so I wanted the grand tour now that sheetrock is in place.
Nana was telling about where various things would go, how different features would work and about the great view from the reading nook. When I came back outside, I found that the boys had found a way to keep busy.
Most of these were taken after Papaw got a towel and wiped Ben's head off.
Needless to say, he rode home pantless.
Wow! Looks like they had quite the party!

The Most Trustworthy Voice in Franchising | The Franchise King®
Helping People Find The Most Profitable Franchises Since 2001
The Most Trustworthy Voice In Franchising
Chik fil A Franchise Chief May Be Clucking Up The Wrong Tree
By The Franchise King®
Cluk. Cluk.
Things just got a little weirder in our nation's fast food franchise wars, as the president of Chick-fil-A publicly voiced opposition to gay marriage this week. And, I do mean publicly….
In a recent interview with Baptist Press, Dan Cathy said that the company was,"guilty as charged in supporting the biblical definition of the family unit." Cathy went on to say that, "We are a family-owned business, a family-led business, and we are married to our first wives."
Of course, Cathy is backtracking a bit now, according to this story in the LA Times.
What other franchise CEO's are going to jump into this fray? (My prediction; none.)
Mixing religion and franchising has always scared the bejesus out of me, and the Chick-fil-A fiasco is a perfect example why.
I remember a fellow franchise professional telling me that he attended a certain franchise company's convention a few years back that included a "prayer breakfast." I'm thrilled that I wasn't in attendance, because I would have, A. Walked out or B. Stood up and said something that I may have regretted. I don't do "prayer breakfasts."
Chik fil A Franchise Chief May Be Clucking Up The Wrong Tree. Again.
Chick-fil-A's president sure has a lot of courage. But, he's a wealthy guy, and lots of wealthy guys use their money as a shield….they figure that they can't really be hurt by stuff like this-because they're loaded. I predict that Chick-fil-A's revenues are going to suffer because of what he said.
It's Not About Gay Marriage
For me, it's about one more person trying to shove their "Christian Values" down my throat.
I've had it. I'm sick of business owners and politicians throwing their religious beliefs into the mix. It's totally unnecessary, and it kind of creeps me out. There is no reason for it. Your religious beliefs…yes, Mr. Cathy, I'm talking to you, are your business. I don't want to know anything about what you do on Sundays. As long as it doesn't affect or endanger me or my friends and family…do what you feel you must.
I find lots of examples of people doing this on Twitter. Some of them even add their religious beliefs on their Twitter handles. (In which case, I immediately unfollow them.) It's a major turnoff for me.

And, by the way, My feelings on gay marriage have nothing to do with my reason for writing this post. (Please don't try to guess what they are, because you have a 50% chance of being wrong.)
No More Chick-fil-A For Me
I probably dine at a Chick-fil-A 3-4 times a year. Not anymore, though. My daughter, (The Franchise Princess) loves the place. Now that's she's driving, she's more than welcome to spend her own money there.
I did offer to take her there for lunch this Sunday, though.

About The Franchise King®
The Franchise King®, Joel Libava, is the author of several books on franchise ownership. He specializes in teaching would-be franchise owners how to choose, research and buy a profitable franchise.
Rieva says
nope, I"m boycotting.
The Franchise King says
Cool. That's now 2.
Me too! For me, the issue goes deeper than what the president said. Chik-Fil-A corporate profits support the Family Research Council (FRC). The FRC spends money lobbying in my view, what is discriminatory (i.e. displaying prejudice)– They believe in the traditional family unit and they lobby hard in order to maintain that status quo. There are discrimination practices in business, but as a general whole business is not supposed to discriminate on the basis of race, gender, sexual orientation. I don't see how lobbying for such discrimination with corporate profit is appropriate either.
Reading the King's most recent blog: http://thefranchiseking.com/the-chick-fil-a-franchise-model-is-for-the-birds the company as a franchise itself is extremely disappointing, and I agree, I'd hardly call it a franchise! So now I have yet another reason to boycott.
You people are ridiculous. Get some thicker skin. How many small business owners have been forced to close their doors because of intolerance on the other side of the homosexual debate. And if you don't think mixing your sexual orientation and business is the same thing then you need a reality check. It also seems like the author is shoving his beliefs down our throats and Nixon religion and business as well. This is America folks. Do what you want but don't pretend like Christians are the oppressors here.
connor says
Doesn't the LGBT do the same thing? They lobby and are discriminatory towards those with opposing views. That's look are both sides now and not just pick the one you agree with. Both are guilty, the difference is one is a religious belief the other is a twisted choice.
JKGuinn says
So, a Biblically based business decides to stick to it's biblical principles and somehow that's cramming it down your throat? If people don't agree with it, they have the right to eat anywhere else they want. Also, I'm curious as to why this obvious Op/Ed piece is even in a franchising column.
Thanks for stopping by to comment. A "Biblically based" business should sell bibles. My post is about mixing a franchise business with religion
It's short sighted- and a huge turn off for me
Joel Libava
GeoOT says
Apparently the corporation has come around to your view Joel. See: http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/b6864e44-02c2-11e2-9e53-00144feabdc0.html#axzz271KnnCl1
There is some coverage elsewhere that seems to be either less complete or more editorial.
Interesting. I'll go check it out now.
Thanks for the TIP.
GraciesDaddy says
Is it "Biblically based" to spend TWO MILLION DOLLARS to campaign against OTHER people's rights? That's what CFA did through there "Social Awareness" organization, the Ruth Institute, spent fighting marriage equality. This topic is in a franchising column because I would venture, by the end of the quarter, the franchise value is going to be about 30% of what it is today. In other words, Investors: DON'T BUY ONE!
Steve Dale says
Seriously…. Boycotting a guy with profound religious beliefs who doesn't open on Sundays? Really? Do you think he cares? Should I "Boycott" Disney for their support of the gay agenda? Or should I "Boycott" Google for their support of Obama? As a conservative I'm attacked every hour of every day by the media, academia, and hollywood. I don't run around saying i'm going to "boycott" every time i'm insulted. I don't punish people for their believes, I try a learn and expand my views.
Thanks for reading the post, Steve.
I'm boycotting chick fil A because they are mixing religion with business.
I frequent businesses that provide a service and/or a product that I want and maybe even need.
Businesses that are dumb enough to lay their religious beliefs on me-as part of their business, don't get my money.
And, I did learn something.
I didn't really know that much about chick fil A until they got this free PR.
Now I know more.
WRL says
Joel, by your own admission you purchased from CF in the past and didn't seem to have a problem then. If you felt the company was mixing religion with the chicken sandwich you bought you probably wouldn't have gone back as you did. If an American expresses his personal views and happens to be the head of a company, some that don't agree with that view may want to boycott an otherwise enjoyable business transaction. That's understandable as we are all biased to a certain degree. But based on the events of August 1st where people are wrapped around the store to support Chic-fil-a, I would say that hundreds of thousands of Americans in this country still believe in the 1st amendment and Christian values.
I always kind of knew that they were closed on Sundays because of their religious views, but now it's been thrown in my face. (Their views–their religion)
Business and religion don't mix very well, and now I've made my choice.
Just like Cathy made his.
They WILL end up having less revenue now.
Laurence says
Maybe not. I will gladly eat yummy chikin an extra 4 times a year to offset your absence ..
Did Mr. Cathy throw it in your face? Or did the media and organizations who support LBGT causes throw it in your face?
I don't think Mr. Cathy did anything more than give an interview on a Baptist radio station.
The reason you've heard about it is the MSM and LBGT organizations primarily.
If you're angry Mr. Cathy's views are out of a religious context and in the public square, I think your anger is misplaced.
Mr. Cathy didn't put it front and center. Others did.
Starbucks CEO throws his views in everyone's face as well. What's your take on that?
Chick-fil-a uses its profits to promote organizations that I find morally repugnant. So I won't be eating there anymore, since I don't want my purchases to increase that profit pool.
How is that un-American? How is that not believing in the First Amendment? I thought it was *quintessentially* American to express one's views and make one's own legal and moral choices within the laws of our land. I thought I had just as much right as Mr. Cathy to spend *my* money as *I* see fit.
How is it anti-1st Amendment to exercise my 1st amendment rights?
mr truth says
chick -fil -a will make more money in the future,watch and see! dan cathy is right on!
Long-term, I think that Chick fil A's revenue will drop.
Thanks for reading the post.
whenpigsfly says
I have yet to see any one show that chic fil a is selling anything but chicken. No one has whined that they are selling bibles or preaching anything close to religion at any of their establishments. Rock on chic fil a. Keep up the good work GOD BLESS
The Franchise King® says
But, internally, they ARE selling more than chicken. And, it borderlines on discrimination of the religious variety. JL
matthew m says
Joel,
The linchpin of your article is that "business and religion don't mix well". What an incredibly foolish statement. One who is a devoted Christian, Jew, or Muslim (in addition to many other smaller religions) cannot be expected to forget or hide the values that are established because of their spiritual beliefs. A dedicated follower of a religion will operate the business he/she owns the same way he/she operates his/her own life because they believe that is the best way. How can you expect a business owner to take religion out the business when it runs so deeply, defining who they are?
Maybe you just don't understand why people hold religious beliefs. Your statement, "do what you feel you must", speaks directly to this. I'm certain that most don't hold religious beliefs because they feel like they have to but it's because of what they want to do. Wanting to live a certain way that might be different than most because of your religious beliefs is why it is impossible for a devout person to remove it from all aspects of his/her life, including the business they run.
You mentioned in the comments that you don't know much about Chickfila. That's pretty interesting since your career is based around franchising. It's time for you to do your homework.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting, Matthew.
Lots of people are religious. It's just that most of them don't broadcast it to their customers and/or clients.
It needs to remain separate.
Believe it or not, there are people who get turned off by people who try to shove their beliefs down others throats.
In all honesty, how did Mr. Cathy "shove his beliefs down your throat".
He gave an interview to a Baptist radio show. The media took is and spun it into places where there was an audience who didn't tune in to hear religious related dialog.
It seems Mr. Cathy discussed his religious views in a religious forum with an audience who tuned in to listen.
Did Mr. Cathy broadcast his views to customers or clients? It was to a religious radio talk show.
Looking at what actually happened, it seems The Franchise King is the one who is combining Mr. Cathy's religious views to his business.
He is a business man, who is also religious. There is no evidence his organization discriminates in any way. He talks about personal views in a separate forum.
Are you saying because he's a business man…that means he can't talk in a religious forum about religious views?
"The Cathy family has always been public about its faith. Since Dan Cathy's father, Truett, opened the first Chick-fil-A in 1967, the restaurants have been closed on Sundays. The company refused to reconsider the policy during the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, sacrificing even more profit." From The Blaze.com
Public.
This company wears it's religious views on it's sleeves.
That's their choice..
I've made mine.
No money to them from me when i'm in the mood for a chicken sandwich.
Chester says
But why does it bother you so much that they choose to do that? Their choice is the same as another company that makes the choice not to do it. And then again, the choice is left up to the consumer as to whether or not they want eat there, for whatever reason. It all comes down to choice and I don't understand why you expect CFA to make only choices you approve of.
Chester,
They made a conscious choice to engage in a political-religious debate and to throw their own views on the topic into the mix.
It's a problem because mixing business with religion and politics is usually a bone-headed move.
Plus, their attitudes are from the 1950's.
Honey says
I agree with you Joel, their hiring techniques and selection of franchisee's screams discrimination. Their anti-gay stance is far from biblical and I won't eat there anymore either.
First there's a difference between anti-gay and believing in a biblical form of marriage. Chick-fil-A doesn't discriminate homosexuals. I work at the company and we have both served and hired homosexuals. Chick-fil-A doesn't hate gays. They just don't agree with their views. Big difference man.
actually our biblical views go way further than 1950's seeing how the Bible was written about 2,000 yrs ago.
D.R. says
Your an idiot.
I just wanted to update Chick-fil-A sales skyrocket that year, and looking even better now. Side note, the franchise model is horrible but if your looking for a good job running a Chick-fil-A franchise will pay well and keep you super busy.

Rodents, birds and other animals love the safe haven of power substations. But they spread diseases, destroy sensitive equipment and cause fatal failures that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Is there a solution to the seemingly eternal battle between the rodents and the substation industry?
"Yes," says power segment specialist Karl Mosbacher of Roxtec. "The thing is to use cable entry seals that are tested for animal mitigation. Often when contractors and site personnel are left with the task of sealing cable penetrations, they tend to utilize sealing materials that are readily available on site, but insufficient. Considering this, it is best for cable sealing methods to be a design level decision, allowing standardization with approved seals in buildings, cabinets and enclosures."
Traditionally, many contractors use spray foam or putty when trying to seal cable penetrations. But these materials are often not enough to stop rodents from entering. They chew the material in this weak spot until they are able to get into the warm building and even use the leftovers to build their nest inside.
Whenever there is an opening, rats and mice are followed by snakes, spiders and other insects. All of a sudden, the area with sensitive electronic equipment has become a threat to both life and assets.
"Cable entries have been the number one point of intrusion," says Karl Mosbacher. "Therefore, it is a must to seal properly by using proven animal mitigation systems such as the Roxtec cable sealing system."
Effective animal mitigation is the easy way to avoid costs for downtime, repair and rewiring.
Karl Mosbacher recommends the Roxtec Transit Designer™, which is a free online tool for designers and engineers who want to ensure safety all while saving a lot of time. Designers can use it to select the right sealing solution and once and for all make sure that the same seals are used in all facilities.
"Specify Roxtec and save money," says Karl Mosbacher. "Effective animal mitigation is the easy way to avoid costs for downtime, repair and rewiring. The electronic equipment in substations, such as SCADA and switchgear, is getting more sophisticated, but also more vulnerable than ever."
Explore our solutions for the power industries.
Spray foam cannot compete with Roxtec seals when it comes to animal mitigation.


FAQS: Can moms come to campouts?
Sorry moms. Most campouts are dads and kids events. However, the Summer Campout may sometimes be a family event, which means the entire family can attend. The Summer Campout is a different type of campout than the Spring, Fall and Winter campout.
Perhaps moms get the best perk of all — a little, well-deserved alone time.
Many CVNSND events are family events, where moms and other siblings can attend. But most campouts, largely because of the layouts of the campgrounds and combined sleeping arrangements, are dads and kids only.

WINNER's Kim Jin Woo On His Solo Debut, Friendship With Members, Appearing On Variety Shows, And More
by D. S.kim
WINNER member Kim Jin Woo's pictorial and interview with GQ Korea have been revealed!
During a recent photo shoot with GQ Korea, Kim Jin Woo pulled off a variety of styles from a chic suit to glamorous outfits. In the interview that followed, the singer talked about making his solo debut, his friendship with WINNER members, and more.
When asked if he feels awkward promoting alone, Kim Jin Woo answered, "I've rarely participated in solo interviews like this. When we participate in interviews as WINNER, Kang Seung Yoon and Lee Seung Hoon usually answer the questions. I personally find interviews difficult. I'm shy. It's easier for me to write [my answers] than saying them."
Kim Jin Woo continued, "I feel comfortable when I'm with my members. I depend on them a lot. We've lived together for 10 years, and they feel more like my family than my actual family. When I'm with people I feel comfortable with, I open my whole heart to them. It's difficult for me to approach someone first, but once I open my heart, I can give them endless love."
The WINNER member also talked about performing as a soloist. Kim Jin Woo said, "It's a bit different on stage. Doing a solo performance is easier than doing a solo interview. I felt lonely at first, but it was fun to show people who I am as an individual instead of as a WINNER member."
Kim Jin Woo has appeared on many variety shows that required him to overcome hardships, such as traveling to an unfamiliar country in "Wizard of Nowhere," being locked in prison in "Do the Right Thing," and more. Kim Jin Woo commented, "I just did everything they asked of me. I don't think being an idol is anything special, and I don't want to be trapped in that frame. That's why I show myself as I truly am on variety shows. People know when someone is being fake. If I'm able to tell whether someone is being sincere or not, why wouldn't they?"
When asked about his drinking habits, Kim Jin Woo answered, "I talk a lot. I talk about needless things and become honest. My habit is that I drink more when I'm drunk. I don't get up until everyone else is up." He also shared that he recently had drinks with Kang Seung Yoon. Kim Jin Woo continued, "We had a bottle and a half of whiskey. We were drinking at Seung Yoon's house, and other members joined us later."
Kim Jin Woo also talked about his friendship with Song Mino. He stated, "I don't know how people view Mino, but in reality, he is very thoughtful. He tends to approach me first and asks if there's anything that's making me uncomfortable. He worried a lot about my solo debut, saying that I was like a child without his guardians around."
Lastly, Kim Jin Woo mentioned that he is currently living in his heyday, just like the title of his solo album "JINU's HEYDAY" suggests. He explained, "I'm 29 years old (in Korean reckoning), the heyday of my 20s. However, this is not the end. There will be another heyday in my 30s and 40s."

Singer and songwriter Kevin Devine has won a loyal following in indie rock and emo circles for his emotionally urgent songs of love, life, and politics. Devine was born in Brooklyn, New York on December 19, 1979. After graduating from high school, he enrolled at Fordham University to study journalism, but in 1999 his priorities turned to music; he began performing solo at coffeehouses and open-mike nights, and soon he and Chris McAllen, a friend since high school, formed the emo band Miracle of 86 (the name came from the unexpected World Series victory by the New York Mets in that year). Miracle of 86 earned a potent following on the New York/New Jersey indie rock scene, but it didn't take long for Devine to begin thinking outside of the band's boundaries. In 2002, he released his first solo album, Circle Gets the Square, and began playing solo shows in addition to his dates with the group. In 2003, he would drop a three-song EP, Travelling the EU, and a second full-length solo album, Make the Clocks Move (informed by the death of his father and the 2004 presidential race), before Miracle of 86 finally broke up.
In 2005, Devine released his first post-Miracle of 86 album, Split the Country, Split the Street. Produced by two of Devine's former associates from the group, Chris Bracco and Mike Skinner, the album moved back and forth between uptempo rock and quieter, more contemplative songs. In 2006, Devine scored a major-label deal with Capitol Records and, working with producer Rob Schnapf (who had collaborated with one of Devine's key influences, Elliott Smith), made Put Your Ghost to Rest. The album earned enthusiastic reviews, but several months after its release, a merger between Capitol and Virgin Records scuttled its marketing, and Devine was dropped from the label. However, the album soon gained a second life when it was reissued in 2008 by the indie imprint Junketboy, and Devine toured in support of the new release. In 2009, he returned with his next album, Brother's Blood, released by Electric Gentlemen Records; he toured in support of it backed by his occasional touring ensemble the Goddamn Band, and with the group Manchester Orchestra as opening act. The tour went so well that Devine and members of Manchester Orchestra formed a side project, Bad Books, who released their self-titled debut album in the fall of 2010.
