If the key to saving the herd of wild horses in Arizona’s Tonto National Forest is awareness, Becky Standridge is turning out to be their angel of mercy. It’s easy to live in Phoenix, the metropolitan area which borders the park, and never know of their existence, so it shouldn’t be surprising that forest officials themselves are now relying on the collection of an amateur photographer to keep track of these Wild West relics. Officials discovered Standridge’s vital collection when she went to a ranger station to identify the horse that had been hit by a car, never considering they wouldn’t know. "I wanted to keep it on my log who was now missing because you can't see every horse every day", Standridge explained. But when the Range Wildlife Manger asked what Becky had been up to she learned that no one had ever catalogued the horses. In fact, there had been a long debate over how to manage the herd. Becky's hobby was like an answer falling from the sky. An answer that may save many of these horses. Embedded media -- click here to see it. Full story at AZ Central via Neatorama. Saving the horses.

How OMGPOP's CEO earned his "World's Greatest Boss" coffee mug Posted about 9 hours ago by Kate Rinsema to Holy Kaw! 5 In the last few years we’ve been bombarded with stories showing the brutal side of work, of losing jobs or missing breaks, of a few profiting while everyone else plummets, but his story is the exception that might just get you out of bed to face another day. Before OMGPOP’s Draw Something caught fire, the horizon looked exceptionally bleak, and that meant laying off flash developers to buy a few months of breathing room before throwing in the towel. Even in their darkest hour, the company was still trying to find their former employees new jobs when their ship came in. In only six weeks, 35 million people downloaded Draw Something and when a deal appeared to be in the works with Zynga, CEO Dan Porter did something that only seems to happen in the movies; he hired back the laid-off workers so they could share in the company’s good fortune. According to a first-hand source: He was literally negotiating the deal and jamming the re-hires back into payroll to make sure they were covered with hours remaining in the close. Their options kept vesting and they benefitted from the sale. Well done, sir, well done. Full story at Business Insider. Well played. Photo credit: Fotolia Sent by Posterous.
