Some days a motivational quote can provide a quick pick-me-up for employees and even management. They can be a breath of fresh air when it comes to a drab afternoon. These are also a great way to jazz up a newsletter or a memo or even to simply print and attach to a bulletin board. Using quotes like these are perfect ways to create a motivational and successful work environment. As Mr. Rick Pitino says "The only way to get people to like working hard is to motivate them. Today, people must understand why they're working hard. Every individual in an organization is motivated by something different." --Rick Pitino

28. John Naisbitt: The new source of power is not money in the hands of a few, but information in the hands of many.

Many employers will add these quotes inside the employees’ paycheck envelope. Sometimes it may be a motivational quote, other times a silly antidote. Include employee birthdays or other important events to help your employees feel a part of the team.

Nominated for 9 Emmys and 2 Golden Globes, Scrubs premiered in Fall 2001 to moderate fanfare and a respectable Nielsen rating of #34. And although the series has yet to achieve blockbuster ratings, it has managed to build a loyal fan base devoted to its unique brand of humor and quirky characters. Created by Bill Lawrence (creator of Spin City), Scrubs is a spoof on the dearth of hospital dramas that have cropped up since ER popularized the genre. In a sense, it’s what Grey’s Anatomy would be like if Ben Stiller were the lead character.

Filmed in a real life hospital (North Hollywood Medical Center), Scrubs follows the bungling day-to-day experiences of medical intern Dr. John “J.D.” Dorian (Zach Braff). Along with his college buddy Dr. Christopher Turk (Donald Faison), the two newcomers must learn the ropes of daily life in an actual hospital setting. But Sacred Heart, their new stomping ground, is the epitome of a dysfunctional work environment. One might easily believe that everyone’s job is to dump on J.D. In getting his feet wet, the young intern butts heads with numerous characters such as fellow intern and potential love interest Dr. Elliot Reid (Sarah Chalke), cranky Chief of Medicine Dr. Bob Kelso (Ken Jenkins), the ever-abrasive Dr. Perry Cox (John C. McGinley), pessimistic nurse Carla Espinosa (Judy Reyes), and a sarcastic janitor (Neil Flynn).

Scrubs is a character-driven show that’s exceptionally well-written, and the acting is superb. John C. McGinley is fantastic in the role of Dr. Cox, a performance almost as memorable as his portrayal of consultant Bob Slydell in Office Space. His delivery is almost as perfect as that of Ken Jenkins who often resembles Lloyd Bridges from Airplane with his uncanny ability to deliver ridiculous one-liners with a straight face. Veteran talents Sarah Chalke (Becky from Roseanne) and Donald Faison (Murray from Clueless) round out an excellent supporting cast for Zach Braff who makes his mark with this very likeable character. In the end, Scrubs is a situation comedy built on the strength of biting sarcasm and clever humor. And although it’s already enjoyed a successful five-year run, it’s probably one of the most underappreciated comedies on network TV. If you haven’t yet seen it, do yourself a favor and check it out. You won’t be disappointed.

Have you recently decided that you would like to host a Thanksgiving party? If so, have you decided which type of party you would like to host? Unfortunately, a large number of Thanksgiving party hosts don’t really realize that they have a choice. The reality is that you do. If you want, you could have a casual Thanksgiving party, a formal Thanksgiving party, a Thanksgiving party with adults and kids, or a Thanksgiving party with just adults; the decision is yours to make. However, you may find that an adult only party is the way to go.

Perhaps, the first question that you should ask yourself is can you host an adult only party? An adult only party is a party where only adults are present, no kids. While you may prefer to have an adult only party, it may be a little bit difficult for you to do, especially if you have kids. If you can find someone to watch your children for the day or the evening, you may be able to have an adult only Thanksgiving party, but it is also important to remember your guest, they too might have kids.

Although you may find it difficult to host an adult party, you may want to give it some serious thought. This is because there are an unlimited number of benefits to hosting an adult party. One of those benefits is that adult drinks can be served. Of course, you can always serve alcoholic beverages at a Thanksgiving party when kids are present, but there are some who do not like to drink in front of children, especially their own children. There is a good chance that your party will be nice and fun without alcohol, but many adults enjoy drinking when at a social event.

An adult only Thanksgiving party may make it easier to choose entertainment for the party. While you and other adults may enjoy dancing, young children may not always. You can also play games centered on alcohol or even enjoy adult aged games, such as adult themed board games. These types of games may not be ideal for children, particular because of the alcohol or the adult questions or answers that are needed to play certain party board games.

Perhaps, the biggest benefit to having an adult only Thanksgiving party is the fact that there will be no kids present. While all parents love their kids, often more than their own life, there are times when a parent just needs a break. Whether you are a parent or some of your guests are, it is likely that they will enjoy the times to themselves. It may seem silly, but an adult setting and adult conversations are things that many parents often long for.

As previously mentioned, it may be a little bit difficult to plan a Thanksgiving party for adults only. If you are not sure about what you should do, it may be a good idea to discuss it with some of your other party guests, especially those that have children. There is a good chance that most of your party guests would still come to your party if their children couldn’t, but you may also find that some will not. It may be a good idea to determine, ahead of time, what the majority of your guests would or wouldn’t do. This may help you to decide whether or not an adult only Thanksgiving party is worth it or even possible.

Health insurance can be expensive if you are not lucky enough to have it provided by your employer. Even shopping around for the best quotes may not be within your budget. Luckily there are alternatives to health insurance that you can take advantage of so that you and your family will be safe even if an emergency situation comes up. You can apply for the prescription discount card program, which is a low monthly cost and works at most of the of corporation drug stores that we all use. There are also programs that give you health care but are not considered "health insurance".

The prescription discount card is great for anyone who has regular prescriptions that need to be filled over a long period of time. The cost of prescriptions without insurance is high and always rising. If you cannot afford health insurance, there is no way that buying these full priced prescriptions will come without difficulty. You can enroll in a discount card program on the Internet or you can call around to try and find one locally. The reported savings for each person is estimated to be at least 50%, and some programs will enroll you for under $5 a month.

Health care programs are another popular alternative to expensive health insurance. BeniCard, for example, is a highly acclaimed health care program, and for a small monthly fee, you can have your immediate family covered. You will not be turned down because there is no limit to who is eligible, even if you have a pre-existing condition. It is not health insurance, but you will be able to save money on doctor visits, vision and hearing care, dental services, and prescription drugs. This is just one of the programs that can help you if you cannot get health insurance due to expense or because you have been turned down due to an illness.

No one should go without health care of some sort. Prescriptions are extremely costly without insurance, and if you or someone in your family has an emergency health situation, you could be left with a large debt for years. Insurance companies are hesitant to accept anyone with a pre-existing illness because it will definitely cost them plenty of money. For anyone who has been turned down for health insurance or simply cannot afford to pay a deductible, health care programs and prescription discounts are a low-cost alternative that could save you money.
