Shortly after I started there, the pandemic happened, and many people friended each other on Facebook. Because that was the only source for a sense of community as we went through those first few dark months, I accepted many of the friend requests, and that felt good. However, a couple of years later I couldn't help but notice how people commented on each other's posts and tagged each other like they were friends in real life but never with me. I had gone through cancer during the pandemic, which few people know about, and I missed out on many of the social events that solidified those friendships. So I had some understanding, but I figured after a while I would be invited in. That never happened, and I felt excluded by the number of posts that would show up in my feed between co-workers. I made the decision after a couple of years to unfriend/block many people on Facebook from my work so I didn't have to see that and feel bad. When staff functions or happy hours are advertised, I go and socialize and ask questions of others and show that I am interested in what they have to say and in them as people. However, people generally do not seem interested in me in any way, and I often leave feeling dissed. Over the years, I have invited people who I have gotten to know from work over for dinner at my home with my husband (and even to our wedding), and although the couples gladly accepted our invitations and we had a pleasant and fun time, a return invitation has never occurred. This week I found out that there was a celebration for one of the teacher's birthdays last weekend, and many other teachers were invited, but I was not. I sit near this teacher at lunch at the break table most days and converse pleasantly with him and listen to his stories, so it stung a bit that I wasn't invited. The office staff is no better. They don't smile or say hello to me except for one of the women. I am beginning to think I am some sort of pariah at my work, and I don't know why. I have made friends through other avenues, hobbies and organizations, and have other long-lasting friendships and have a happy and healthy home life, but it is troubling that my workplace feels so cold and exclusive. I am considering looking for a job elsewhere, but I like the school, the leadership and the students, so I would like to stay. But deep down, I am also wondering if I am the problem and have some sort of off-putting characteristic or some reputation that drives would-be-work-friends away. I have started therapy for other reasons but plan to discuss this as well and am wondering what advice you have for how I might go about understanding how to perceive this feedback at work. — Not Welcome in Washington It's completely understandable that you feel hurt by the way your co-workers have treated you. My guess is that this may have more to do with the fact that you're new and joined during a challenging time, making it harder to integrate yourself. Building relationships takes time, and it's natural for people to need a while to get to know one another. If you love the school, the leadership and the students, that's a great reason to stay. Faculty dynamics can change, and you may meet new colleagues or form connections with the existing ones over time. Remember, we can't control other people's actions — only how we react to them. Sometimes, what feels like rejection is actually redirection. Perhaps you weren't meant to be part of that group or party, and that's OK. Congratulations on taking the step to go to therapy and staying curious about yourself! By continuing this journey of self-growth, you'll likely find that meaningful friendships will naturally come into your life. Try not to get too fixated on how those friendships should look or where they need to come from. You don't have to be friends with your coworkers; you can build connections outside of work. For now, focus on what you enjoy about your job: the students, the leadership and the school itself. Those are excellent reasons to stay and thrive in your role.

Arsenal scored five goals in a Champions League away game for just the third time as they obliterated a sorry Sporting Lisbon 5-1 at the Estadio Jose Alvalade. Kai Havertz , Bukayo Saka , Leandro Trossard , Gabriel Magalhaes and Gabriel Martinelli all contributed to the demolition of the Portuguese powerhouses, who momentarily threatened an incredible fightback through Goncalo Inacio but were otherwise torn to shreds by Mikel Arteta 's merciless men. Pitting their wits against a Sporting side that had won nine games on the spin, prevailed in every home match this season and had not failed to score at Estadio Jose Alvalade since October 2022, Arsenal would have likely anticipated a highly strenuous battle from the first whistle. However, it was anything but in the opening 45 minutes, where Arsenal exuded unbridled confidence and were carving through their hosts at will, while Joao Pereira 's men were a shadow of the side that obliterated Manchester City earlier this month. Martinelli's tap-in, Havertz's one-yard effort and the customary Gabriel header from a corner propelled the Gunners into an unforeseen three-goal lead before half time, although whatever choice words Pereira had for his meek men at the break went down a treat. After Arsenal ended the first 45 with a goal from a corner, Sporting immediately reduced the arrears via an Inacio header two minutes into the second period, where the Green and Whites suddenly flipped a switch and started to dominate. However, an indefensible challenge from an already-booked Ousmane Diomande on Martin Odegaard in the penalty area allowed Saka to restore the Gunners' three-goal advantage, before Trossard capped off a five-star display in which Arsenal could have easily left with six or seven goals under their belts. Arsenal's dismantling of Sporting also takes the Gunners above the Portuguese side into seventh place in the 36-team UCL table , although Pereira's men are clinging onto the eighth and final automatic qualification spot by virtue of scoring one more goal than Brest. Gabriel Martinelli fires Arsenal ahead early on in Lisbon 🤩 📺 @tntsports & @discoveryplusUK pic.twitter.com/gzExcCfu1I Arsenal have their first Champions League away goal of the season, and a richly deserved one too! Jurrien Timber just about manages to keep himself onside on the right flank to pick up Declan Rice 's pass, and the Dutchman delivers a sumptuous low cross into the six-yard box. Neither Kai Havertz nor Sporting goalkeeper Franco Israel can get there, but Martinelli gets goal-side of an unawares Geovany Quenda to tap home the opener. What a start for Arsenal 👏 Bukayo Saka puts it on a plate for Kai Havertz to extend the Gunners' lead ⭐ 📺 @tntsports & @discoveryplusUK pic.twitter.com/Xpm3Vp8vRp Arsenal have been well and truly resurrected, and a meek Sporting have no answer to the Gunners' newfound ruthlessness. Thomas Partey 's delicate lobbed pass finds the run of Saka, who glides past Maximiliano Araujo with ease and beats an onrushing Israel to tee up Havertz for a tap-in. Gabriel makes it 3-0 to Arsenal just before the break with a towering header! 💥 He also hit Gyökeres' celebration 👀 📺 @tntsports & @discoveryplusUK pic.twitter.com/rk9r8ysvtg Death, taxes, and Gabriel scoring from corners. Arsenal had been threatening a third ever since Havertz's finish, and they increase their advantage with the final act of the first half, as Gabriel leaves Araujo for dead and powers in a devastating header at the back post from Rice's inswinging delivery. The start of a scintillating fightback? Sporting explode out of the blocks at the start of the second period and beat Arsenal at their own game, as Inacio evades Riccardo Calafiori and turns a low corner home with a smart side-footed volley. Bukayo Saka keeps his composure from the spot to regain the Gunners' three-goal lead 🎯 📺 @tntsports & @discoveryplusUK pic.twitter.com/FmgE7PxLR4 All of Sporting's hard work in the second half likely undone by one moment of madness from Diomande, who brings down Odegaard in the penalty area with a nonsensical challenge from behind. Saka steps up to the penalty spot and is unable to fool Israel, who dives the right way, but the Englishman's spot kick is right into the side of the net and out of the Sporting goalkeeper's reach. Diomande was booked in the first few minutes and surely would have been sent off had that challenge been made anywhere else on the pitch, but Szymon Marciniak keeps his red card in his pocket. A penny for Ruben Amorim 's thoughts right now, as Arsenal make it five through their resident super sub. Mikel Merino is afforded far too much time and space to let fly from the edge of the box, and even though Israel keeps out his venomous strike, the rebound bounces up for Trossard to nod in. © Imago Odegaard pulled the strings as only he can, Saka registered a goal and assist for the second game running, but William Saliba was near-flawless against one of the most lethal strikers in Europe. The Frenchman barely allowed Viktor Gyokeres a sniff all evening, making four tackles, two interceptions and winning both of his aerial battles to completely nullify the Swedish sensation.

MOORHEAD — Just talking about diversity seems to carry with it something of a stigma these days, given the nation's current political divide. And that's unfortunate, because businesses can benefit greatly by adopting hiring practices that recognize the value of diversity, equity and inclusion. That's according to Whitney Harvey, senior director of workforce diversity and inclusion for the Minnesota Chamber Foundation, who provided the keynote address at a workforce forum held Thursday, Nov. 21, in Moorhead's Armory Event Center, an event hosted by the Fargo Moorhead West Fargo Chamber of Commerce. Harvey said the subject of diversity is often clouded with misconceptions about who benefits and who possibly loses out when companies embrace concepts like equity and inclusion. In reality, she said, when a business commits to hiring employees with differing backgrounds it isn't just the right thing to do from a moral perspective, it also makes good business sense. She said reasons for that include the fact the region's future labor pool is becoming increasingly diverse as Baby Boomers retire in droves and fewer future workers are being born. And as young workers enter the job market, they are more and more picky about the companies they are willing to work for, according to Harvey. "They want to work for companies with values that align with theirs," she said. Harvey said foreign-born workers are becoming increasingly important to the economy of the region and the state of Minnesota in particular, which she said is losing workers to neighboring states. "People are leaving Minnesota, migrating out of the state in pretty large numbers and the number of people we are gaining is really attributed to immigrants, people coming from international migration," Harvey said. As far as how businesses might go about adopting practices that encourage and support hiring people with different backgrounds, Harvey advised taking a creative approach to posting jobs. She said examples include posting jobs in different languages and in places of faith, as newcomers to the country, she said, are often very closely connected to places of faith. "So, be innovative in where you're posting them (jobs) and how you're posting them," said Harvey, who added she was impressed by comments made by members of a panel that presented earlier at the workforce forum. She said one panel member spoke about a special on-boarding practice at their particular business that supported inclusion, while another panel member talked about career fairs that utilized student ambassadors. "Absolutely genius," Harvey said, adding that offering innovative and creative ways of engaging and supporting employees "is really enticing to candidates."( ) stock's huge recent run reflects "animal spirits" vs. a change of fundamentals since Donald Trump's election win, according to UBS analysts. Tesla stock fell 1% Monday, reversing from modest gains to a fresh two-year highs. In other Tesla news, CEO Elon Musk said over the weekend that the next big update to Full Self-Driving will be "coming soon." Meanwhile, Tesla is offering a new discount on the Model Y in China as it makes a big year-end sales push. Trump Boosts TSLA, But Not Tesla: UBS UBS analysts led by Joseph Spak said that likely policies in President-elect Donald Trump's administration will be a mixed blessing at best. Removing electric vehicle subsidies could force Tesla to cut prices, Spak noted. Federal guidelines could speed the adoption of self-driving cars, but Tesla doesn't have an autonomous vehicle. The rise in Tesla stock is mostly driven by animal spirits/momentum," Spak wrote in a Monday note. UBS kept a sell rating on TSLA stock, but raised its price target to 226 from 197. Elon Musk Says FSD v13 'Soon' Back in September, Tesla's AI team, in a post on Elon Musk's X, targeted releasing FSD v13 by the end of October. In late October, the AI team said it aimed to get the latest FSD v13 by Thanksgiving. Late Saturday, Elon Musk said on X that it would be "coming soon," but gave no specifics. Tesla and Musk timelines often slip, especially with FSD. Musk, who has been saying Tesla will achieve self-driving "this year" or "next year" for almost a decade, recently pegged mid-2025 as when FSD will go unsupervised in Texas and California. President-elect Donald Trump's transition team reportedly wants to devise a framework for federal self-driving rules, something Trump supporter and adviser Musk has called for. Investors see that as smoothing the path to Tesla robotaxis. But Tesla FSD, despite its name, is still a long way from being self-driving. Tesla China Discount Tesla China on Sunday announced a 10,000 yuan ($1,381) discount on the Model Y real-wheel drive and long-range all-wheel drive variants. Buyers must take delivery by year-end. That's on top of a five-year, 0%-interest loan offer. The vast majority of Tesla's sales in China are for the Model Y, with most of the those the entry-level RWD version. Tesla is driving to drive up global sales in Q4, offering a variety of discounts and incentives around the market. Musk said on the Q3 earnings call that he expected full-year deliveries to top last year's level. Tesla China sales have been holding at or above quarterly records, but short delivery wait times have suggested that little cushion. Tesla Stock Tesla stock fell 1.9% to 345.84 Monday afternoon after hitting a fresh two-year high of 361.93 near the open. Tesla stock jumped 9.9% last week to 352.56. Shares skyrocketed 41% in November as of Friday as investors bet on a huge Trump boost.
James Madison redshirt freshman Bryce Lindsay was named the Sun Belt Conference Men’s Basketball Player of the Week on Tuesday. Lindsay, a Texas A&M transfer, scored double figures in all three games of the Boardwalk Battle in Daytona Beach, Fla., averaging 18.7 points during the tournament as JMU took third place with victories against UIC and Jacksonville State. The guard from Baltimore came off the bench to score a career-high 28 points against UIC, making his first 10 field goal attempts. Lindsay shot 13-for-21 from 3-point range during the tournament and is now JMU’s second leading scorer at more than 14 points per game. Lindsay became the first JMU player to win a Sun Belt weekly awards this season. The Dukes return to the court Friday at home against George Mason.
