On your pathway to a meaningful and fulfilling career/life

What I am about to share has been distilled from this experience, especially over the past decade working with Fortune 100 companies, as well as medium and small size businesses, both public and private. These concepts and models hold true in each of these environments and in the realm of your personal life.

‘Just a wedding’

I actually really enjoy weddings. It's pretty amazing to be so important to people on the biggest day of their lives.

Who’s in charge?

Put to the litmus test of responsible, effective, efficient and accountable organizations, Maricopa is failing. "Who's in charge?" is the all too frequent query of our dedicated police and firefighters, as well as those of us in the community with visions for the future of our city but no one place to direct our voices.

A few good men

Baby wearing, or the act of placing a child in a carrier on one's body, is not a new invention. It has been around as long as humans have had babies. It is present in all parts of history, in all cultures, in all socioeconomic strata.

Supervisor Snider salutes librarians, addresses water-related issues

Global Water rates (in my opinion)

To me, it sounds like no matter how much we kick and scream about this and how bad the economy is hurting, each and every American family will get some rate increase shoved down our collective throats.  

My sister is a model

No, not a runway model, although she is lovely. My sister, Mary Attebery, is someone everyone in Maricopa should model. I am so proud of her!

Tax saving tips for 2009

The best strategy for tax planning is staying informed on changes to the tax law.

The answer is Canadians count, too, fill the census form out and send it in!

Good can come of MUSD budget crisis

Wow. What an emotional time for hundreds of our neighbors who are Maricopa Unified School District employees, and thousands more who are parents and students.

Maricopa volunteers in action

This was a fun-filled weekend for many Maricopa kids and their families, and it was all made possible by various volunteers. 

Supervisor Snider reports successful meetings with Congress

Pinal County Supervisor and Board Chairman David Snider participated in the National Association of Counties' (NACo) 2010 Legislative Conference in Washington, D.C. His mission was to help ensure that the voice of the nation's counties is heard by Congress and the Obama Administration.

More new titles available at Maricopa’s Public Library

The number of new books at the Maricopa Public Library necessitated a second essay. So, without further delay, let's get started with the rest of the new books:

Thank you, Maricopa

I wanted to take this opportunity to express my thanks, and gratitude, to the nearly one-thousand Maricopa voters that gave me their support during the recent primary election.
