The time has come

"The chickens are coming home to roost" is a proverb meaning that a person's past mistakes, bad decisions, or wrongdoings have finally caught up with them, resulting in negative consequences. It signifies that actions, particularly negative ones, will eventually return to cause problems for the person who initiated them, similar to karma. [1, 2, 3, 4]  
Key Aspects of the Idiom: 

• Meaning: It refers to the inevitable return of negative consequences from previous actions. 
• Origin: The phrase stems from the idea that chickens, like "curses," return to their home roost at night. It was popularized in 1810 by Robert Southey and has roots in older, similar expressions. 
• Usage: It is often used to describe situations where a lack of responsibility or a bad decision leads to unavoidable trouble in the present. 
• Context: While it generally implies receiving punishment for poor behavior, it can also simply mean that consequences have caught up with someone. [2, 4, 5, 6, 7]  

Example: "After neglecting to pay his taxes for years, the IRS audit meant his chickens had finally come home to roost." [3, 6]

Gundry

Dr. Steven Gundry typically recommends consuming a high-polyphenol extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), often suggesting up to a liter per week for maximum health benefits, which breaks down to nearly 10 tablespoons a day. However, for most people, 1 to 2 tablespoons daily, or 3–4 tablespoons as suggested by Mediterranean diet studies, is considered sufficient to get the benefits. [1, 2, 3, 4]  
Key Recommendations & Tips: 

• Start Slow: If new to drinking it, start with 1 teaspoon daily and increase to 1–2 tablespoons over time to avoid digestive discomfort. 
• Quality Matters: Use high-quality, cold-pressed, single-origin, extra virgin olive oil. 
• How to Take It: You can drink 1 tablespoon straight in the morning (sometimes mixed with lemon juice) or liberally pour it over vegetables, salads, and other foods. 
• Goal: The goal is to incorporate it into your diet to improve metabolism, heart health, and reduce inflammation. [2, 4, 5, 6, 7]  

If you are using Dr. Gundry's specific, highly concentrated, high-polyphenol olive oil, he suggests that a smaller amount (like a "shot" a day or using his Olive Oil Pearls) can provide the equivalent benefits of a higher volume of standard olive oil, which aligns with the goal of high polyphenol intake. [3, 6]

Oil

https://share.google/aimode/oTgIJRXtmgjC5kqIb

Dr. Steven Gundry strongly advocates consuming high-polyphenol extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) daily—up to a liter per week—as a key part of his dietary recommendations to improve heart health, increase energy, and manage weight. While often taken with meals, a nighttime shot of olive oil can help reduce hunger and promote better, uninterrupted sleep. [1, 2, 3]  
Key details regarding Dr. Gundry's advice on olive oil include: 

• High Polyphenol Content: He emphasizes using olive oil with high polyphenol levels (like his Gundry MD brand (https://gundrymd.com/p/polyphenol-rich-olive-oil/)), which are packed with hydroxytyrosol for heart health. 
• Weight Management & Health: Drinking olive oil, particularly before bed, is part of a regimen meant to support a healthy, lean physique, reduce inflammation, and improve digestion. 
• Optimal Usage: He advises incorporating 1 or more tablespoons daily into your diet, suggesting that many people can consume up to a liter a week. 
• What to Look For: He suggests using dark bottles, checking for harvest dates, and looking for a bitter, robust taste, which indicates high polyphenol content. [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]  

While some trends promote a specific "shot" before bed, Dr. Gundry's main, consistent message is to increase overall daily intake of high-quality EVOO, rather than limiting it to a single, strict bedtime ritual. [3, 8]

Chamber members feathering nests

The article from the **National Association of Counties (NACo)**, titled "Moving incentives draw remote workers," highlights how counties are adapting relocation incentive programs to attract remote/teleworking professionals, especially following shifts caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The main focus is on **Shawnee County, Kansas** (home to Topeka), which modified its existing **Choose Topeka** incentive program. Originally launched in 2019 by **Go Topeka** (an economic development agency under the Joint Economic Development Organization, or JEDO, funded partly by a county sales tax), the program aimed to help local employers recruit and retain talent. It addressed the issue that about **40%** of Topeka workers earning over $40,000 lived outside Shawnee County.

Post-pandemic adaptations targeted remote workers employed by out-of-area companies:
- Incentives include up to **$10,000** for home purchases or **$5,000** for renting (adjusted from the original employer-shared model of up to $16,000 for purchases/$10,000 for rentals).
- The program remains performance-based, with requirements like proof of full-time remote employment, authorization from the employer, residency validation, an application, and an interview with a JEDO review committee.

The original setup involved shared costs (50/50 between Go Topeka/JEDO and employers), with potential reimbursement for employers if employees stayed beyond one year.

Key context includes national trends: Per the Bureau of Labor Statistics' October jobs report (around the article's timeframe), **21%** (1 in 5) of employed Americans were teleworking due to the pandemic, enabling greater relocation flexibility.

Outcomes for Shawnee County:
- The original program saw strong initial interest (over **4,000** inquiries/resumes at launch).
- After pandemic adaptations (around September onward), it received **40 applications**, with **5** remote workers completing the interview process as an early group.

Benefits emphasized include attracting higher-wage jobs to fill local gaps, boosting the overall economy, and appealing to remote workers with Midwest advantages like lower cost of living and lower COVID-19 infection rates at the time.

Quotes from officials:
- Barbara Stapleton (Go Topeka's VP of Talent Attraction) noted the pandemic's shift in work patterns and the goal of encouraging employees to live in the communities where they contribute.
- Shawnee County Commissioner Kevin Cook (JEDO chair) highlighted the adaptation's success in attracting remote talent to support economic growth and fill otherwise hard-to-fill positions.

Overall, the piece portrays this as a proactive strategy for rural/mid-sized counties to leverage remote work trends for economic development through targeted incentives and public-private partnerships.

(Note: The article appears to date from late 2020, with some NACo site references showing November 19/23, 2020 timestamps, though the content reflects pandemic-era adaptations.)
