Glen Carbon tackles number of issues
GLEN CARBON — The Glen Carbon Village Board of Trustees last week discussed possible traffic issues during the replacement of a water main.
Initially the repair was to begin on Dec. 1, however, due to high traffic in the area the board agreed it would be best to begin the plan the first Monday after the New Year, Jan. 5. The plan to repair the break comes on the heels of recent issues.
"We all aware of the water main along Main Street and we've had numerous breaks over the last year," Village Administrator Jamie Bowden said.
The proposed plan is in four phases, with each phase lasting roughly a week. Local businesses in the area of the proposed construction are aware of the construction they could be facing near their business.
Trustees agree that December is not an ideal time to proceed with the repair of the 8-inch water main. Businesses near the proposed repairs often see a larger profit margin during the month of December, causing concern for trustees and business owners.
"When I asked and talked with the businesses, basically it came back unanimous that this is the worst time of the year that you could do this work," Jackstadt said.
During the repair, road closed signs will be provided for each of the affected areas during their respective phases. There will be local access traffic for residents who need to get to their homes or businesses in the affected areas. The village is also working to provide signs that inform through traffic that businesses are still open, in an attempt to divert residents from turning around or taking one of the proposed detour routes.
The contractor will not charge the Village of Glen Carbon a fee for delaying the construction until after the first of the year. The contractor will be allotted 150 days to complete the water main repair, which will include new sidewalks and lamp posts in the affected area. However, there is optimism that the completed task will not require the maximum number of allotted days.
During the next board meeting on Dec. 9 the actual order change to delay the proposed construction will be on the agenda.
Chief of Police Todd Link also presented the Madison County Hazard Mitigation Plan. This plan puts the Village of Glen Carbon into a system so that the village could possibly obtain money from FEMA in the event of natural and man-made hazards including; floods, tornadoes, severe winter storms, severe thunderstorms among others.
"This puts us into the system should we need it in case of an emergency," Link said.
Also addressed was to announcement the Business of the Month for November. Illinois Southwest Orthopedics Ltd. was presented with the award by Mayor Rob Jackstadt. Office Manger Gina McDonald and Dr. Jim Sola were on hand to accept the award.
Mayor Jackstadt announced the Edwardsville Glen Carbon Junior Service Holliday House tour on Saturday, Dec. 7, from noon to 4 p.m. Residents will be invited into six different homes to experience different types of architecture and Christmas decorations. Tickets for the tours are $20 in advance. More information can be found at www.edglenjuniorservice.org.
In April, three four-year terms will be up for election. These chairs specifically belong to Trustees Breckenridge, M. Smith and D. Smith. Nominating petitions are available at Village Hall and must be filed between Dec. 15 and Dec. 22.
Also discussed in the meeting was the approval by the board to use Illinois Municipal Risk Management Association Contribution for; Workers Compensation, Auto Liability, Comprehensive General Liability, Portable Equipment, Auto Physical Damage and Property Insurance for the amount of $317,929.43. The village received quotes from other providers and approved IMLRMA.
The board members also approved a change of Dental, Vision and Short-Term Disability Insurance from Guardian to Assurant for a cost savings of $6,900 per year for the calendar year of 2015.
Trustees also approved ordinances abating municipal corporation real estate taxes on nine different properties in Glen Carbon. These approvals have been approved for several years; the approval of these ordinances represents no change in the village or its policies.
The Village of Glen Carbon will also be pairing with Highland, St. Jacob, Maryville, Collinsville and Troy as a part of the Discovery Enterprise Zone. This will offer economic incentives to promote economic development in the region. Mayor Jackstadt will be holding a meeting at Village Hall on Jan. 15, 2015, at 7 p.m. to further explain the Discovery Enterprise Zone.
Also approved at the meeting was a resolution approving a collective bargaining agreement between the Village of Glen Carbon and the Illinois Fraternal Order of Police Labor Council.
Finally, the village approved a collective bargaining agreement between the village and the United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied Industrial and Service Workers International Union. Both of the new agreements will run from the 2014-17 fiscal years.
The next Village Board meeting will be held on December 9, 2014 at 7 p.m. at Village Hall.

Uros floating islands, Amantani and Taquile
We said ciao to Cuzco and hola to Puno, the final Peruvian stop before Bolivia. The bus ride there was a little different to the more luxury Cruz del Sur journeys we'd experienced. We made stops in remote villages and halfway through, in the middle of a dusty road, were ordered to leave the bus, collect our belongings and step onto a different one. There were no questions asked and we just hoped we'd eventually arrive in Puno; that's what you get for 20 soles!
We did make it to the bus station about 10 hours later and caught a taxi to Cozy Hostel. It was too late to book a tour for the following day so we just chilled and wandered around some of Puno, although there really doesn't seem to be a lot to see in the town itself.
After two sleeps in Cozy and a frustrating lack of hot water showers, we were picked up for the 2 day, 1 night Amantani tour. It began with a short bus ride to the lake where our boat was waiting to first take us to the Uros floating islands. We piled in and settled into our seats before being serenaded with a man playing guitar and panpipes. He did a few songs which weren't overly enjoyable, but we were happy to offer a small tip. Ruben, our tour guide, was a character. He always seemed flustered and wasn't aware of the concept of personal space. Regardless, he was pleasant enough and willing to answer questions. From the front of the boat, he explained in both Spanish and English the layout of the day ahead and then let us sit back, relax and enjoy the slow and gentle boat ride to the Uros floating islands.
The Uros floating islands are home to the Uros people and are made using dried totora reeds which grow in the lake itself. The reeds form a layer called khili which enables the islands to be supported and from these, ropes and sticks are used to keep the islands in place. We arrived at one small island belonging to a family and were ushered off the boat and asked to sit in a semi circle whilst the president of the community gave us a demonstration of how the islands are built and maintained. She then brought round a bowl filled with catfish swimming around in water – the main food source for floating island residents. It was also interesting to learn about the time and effort that goes into the numerous arts and crafts the women make, in particular the beautiful tapestries which take a month to create. The president passed some round for us to see and we were impressed with the detail. After the demonstrations we were given half an hour to explore the small island. I looked inside the houses and saw clothes strewn on the beds, walls and floor. It was basic accommodation and Tom had to be careful stepping in as the doorways were so small; the Peruvians don't generally grow to 6ft 4! After having a snoop and politely saying 'no gracias' to the ladies wanting to sell us their crafts, we boarded a boat also made from dried totora reeds. The president and another lady hopped on with us and paddled us to another nearby island. It was a pleasant ride but its purpose was solely touristic and they were keen to take the money from us as we arrived at the destination. Still, it was a unique experience and the women were extremely friendly. We spent about 25 minutes on the next island getting our passports stamped and sampling some freshly made fried bread – not the most appetising! It was then time to board our boat to the final stop of the day: Isla Amantani.
As the boat pulled up to the dock, we saw groups of women dressed in large colourful skirts with white shirts tucked into them and vibrant waist belts keeping everything in place. They were also wearing long black head scarves which I would later discover are incredibly difficult to keep on your head – it's all about the posture. The men were also gathering to greet us and were dressed smartly in white shirts, black waistcoats and black trousers. It was interesting arriving to an island draped so heavily in tradition that we noticed and felt it before even disembarking from the boat. When we did get off, we were divided into small groups and mine was a non Spanish speaking group which seemed strange considering none of us would be able to translate. Ruben then took us to a very smiley lady called Mama Anselma and she would be our host for the night. We did introductions and were then led along a cobbled path through beautiful surroundings to Mama Anselma's house. It was positioned close to the waterfront with nothing blocking the view so that when sunset came later that evening, I felt like i had the best view on the island. She let us settle into our rooms and use the toilet which required a bucket of water being thrown at it to create the flush. We then chatted as a group for a bit whilst admiring the views before Mama Anselma politely ushered us into the dining room for food. Lunch consisted of salad and a variety of potatoes, not surprising considering there are over 4000 types in Peru. She also served us munya herb tea which is supposed to be a great digestive. Unfortunately for me it was too much and I spent the rest of the afternoon feeling pretty poorly whilst the rest of the group climbed up to a nearby viewing point to watch the sunset.
That evening Mama Anselma served us dinner and then gathered us into one of the bedrooms for some dress up. Her and her daughter helped the girls into the bright skirts, waistbands and shirts and we were all given headwear. Tom was then helped into a large poncho and a warm hat made from alpaca knitwear. We embraced the outfits, took some photos and set off to the party the island was hosting that night. We carried flashlights as, not surprisingly, there weren't any street lights. The cobbles were hard to navigate in the dark but Mama Anselma was a pro and walked briskly without any need for light. We took some time along the way to appreciate the stars above us which shone brightly in the clear night sky; we were especially in awe of the milky way.
The party was brilliant. There was a live band playing traditional Peruvian music and we all held hands and danced awkwardly in circles. Everyone was smiling, having a good time and consuming beer and some local kids even came along. At first they attempted to look cool and uninterested but soon enough got involved with the rest of the party. It lasted about two hours and after our fair share of dances, Mama Anselma led us back to her house and we enjoyed a comfortable and cosy night of sleep on Isla Amantani.
The following day we awoke at about 6:00am and were served our final meal from Mama Anselma, this time pancakes and more of the munya tea. We then packed up and said our goodbyes and thank you's and Tom and I presented Mama Anselma with some avocados. We chose these because fresh fruit and vegetables are in short supply on the island and Mama Anselma was over the moon with the gift. Ruben, who had been staying with us, led us back to the boat via the beach which was a beautiful morning walk in the sunshine. We met with the rest of the group who had been staying with other host families and set off to our next destination: Isla Taquile.
Once on Isla Taquile, we walked uphill to the main square which was difficult considering the altitude, but once up we could admire the views of Lake Titicaca. We were given time to explore the church, market and small snack stores before Ruben took us on a walk to our lunch spot. It was an easy and pleasant downhill stroll with great views of the lake and there were some locals selling their crafts along the way. We eventually arrived at a family house which would be our lunch stop and sat down at the long table with the crockery set up ready for us to eat from. Before tucking in, we were given a shampoo making demonstration by one of the family members. It was really interesting to watch and the smell was amazing. He also demonstrated the weaving process for garments and Ruben talked about hats the men wear on the island, with us learning that different colours and ways of wearing them representing different relationship status'. Lunch was then served which consisted of soup and then fresh fish or an omelette. It was delicious and even more satisfying because of the incredible views.
After lunch we headed back to the boat which would then take us back to Puno. We'd had a great time on the 2 day, 1 night tour and I'd definitely recommend doing this over the half or full day tours because the home stay was a brilliant experience.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. – UNC Greensboro women's basketball (8-13, 2-4) dropped a road Southern Conference matchup 85-76 to ETSU (5-17, 3-3) Thursday night at Brooks Gym. The Bucs went on a 9-1 run in the middle of the fourth quarter for a 12-point lead after the two teams traded baskets for most of the second half.
Trailing by six (35-29) at halftime, the Spartans opened the third quarter with a 10-3 run on three-pointers by Cece Crudup and Alexus Willey and a pair of field goals from Te'ja Twitty to claim its first lead of the game. The Bucs however quickly reclaimed its lead on the next possession that they would never relinquish it the rest of the way. ETSU held a two-possession lead for over nine-straight minutes before its fourth quarter run.
"I thought we had a really good third and fourth quarter, shooting 63 (10-16) and 53% (8-15)," said UNCG head coach Trina Patterson. "We made a great run after halftime. I like our press, and it caused a lot of turnovers (16). Actually, this is the second game where we've been able to press. I was quite pleased with the turnovers we caused, but we needed to do a better job of guarding the ball after the press."
The first quarter featured runs by both teams. ETSU opened the game on a 10-2 run, UNCG responded with its own run of seven straight points, and the Bucs ended the quarter with 12 of the last 16 points scored.
"This team just didn't put it together to begin the game," said Patterson. "We have to do a better job of starting the game, and that's what we need to do to get a win in our next game at Chattanooga."
ETSU quickly built a 12-point lead in the beginning of the second quarter, but UNCG clawed back to a six-point deficit by getting into the bonus and making eight of 12 free throws.
Twitty (24), Nadine Soliman (22) and Aja Boyd (12) combined for 58 points, and Twitty (12 rebounds) and Soliman (10 rebounds) both collected double-doubles. Crudup dished out six assists with no turnovers while also getting a team-high two steals.
"Te'ja had a big game, that was huge for her," said Patterson. "Aja Boyd has done a 360 in her free-throw shooting, almost shooting double in SoCon play than what she did before. She's been able to draw fouls. If we can score a point per possession, which is what happens when we get to the line, that's a pretty efficient offense. If we can continue that, we'll be pretty tough to play this next month. That's our goal is to keep moving up and getting better in the conference."
UNCG closes out its road trip in the state of Tennessee on Saturday at 2 p.m. against Chattanooga.
News and Notes
- Soliman moved into fifth place all-time in career scoring with 1,394 points, passing Renee Coltrane (1981-85). She needs just 24 more points to move into fourth place ahead Brianne Dodgen (1998-2002).
- Soliman and Twitty have now recorded six double-doubles this season, tying for the team lead. Soliman has achieved the feat in four-straight games.
- Soliman entered the game leading the SoCon in defensive rebounds per game (6.2) and pulled down eight against the Bucs.
- Both teams scored 22 points in the third quarter, and ETSU had a three-point edge (28-25) in the fourth.
- The Spartans drew three more fouls (18-15), with the number being skewed by fouling at the end in their attempted comeback. They went 18-25 (72.0%) at the line. Boyd went 8-10 while Soliman made all eight of her attempts.
- Twitty went 11-20 from the field and pulled down a game-high six offensive rebounds.

In some photographs the essence of light and space dominate; in others, the substance of rock and wood, and the luminous insistence of growing things... lt is my intention to present - through the medium of photography - intuitive observations of the natural world which may have meaning to spectators - Ansel Adams
For my intimate love of nature, I have my parents to thank for getting us, as children, 'out there' to move about the United States of America. As a military family, my folks chose to camp in and explore our many National Parks and other wilderness areas en-route to the new duty base. In addition, all family visits were via long automobile rides. Thankfully, back in the day we had no electronic technology to occupy our time, so when my two brothers and I weren't silently bickering about every inch of our respective one-third of the back seat of that old Rambler station wagon, we were staring out of the car windows - studying the outdoors as the miles went by. Frequent stops to admire a pine tree-lined glistening lake, to marvel at a petrified tree stump, or to stare in to a deep, colorful chasm were imperative - their intense beauty penetrating and becoming ingrained within my soul.
With the gift of my son came a new perspective - from the fresh eyes and treasured offerings of a small child full of wonder: A fuzzy caterpillar, a colorful autumn leaf, a shapely stone, a beautiful flower. As an amazing young man I appreciate and admire him for graciously putting up with his mom's presence during my volunteer years in his Scouting and Venturing crews, which provided ample opportunities to experience his adventures in - and the enchantment of - the incomparable Sierra Nevada. It is abundantly clear that nature's grandeur has had a similar bountiful effect on him!
Such were my awakenings to how I view the world around me today. I learned to appreciate the elements within the scenery - the light, colors, shapes, lines, patterns, and textures - and to wonder about all life among us... simply, to marvel at nature.
Many of the photographs on my page were made while out hiking or snowshoeing in our mountains, or from the perspective of rural surroundings, or often because a blossom has caught my attention. Certainly, the great photographers, present and past, have influenced my vision, but none more than the incomparable Ansel Adams. And while most of my images are presented in color, rather than in black and white, as in Mr. Adams's work, his basic insights are most influencial to me.
There is splendor and wonder everywhere, and I aim to capture through my lens what I'm looking at with my eyes, heart, and soul.
Simply look with perceptive eyes at the world about you, and trust to your own reactions and convictions. Ask yourself, "Does this subject move me to feel, think, and dream? Can I visualize a print - my own personal statement of what I feel and want to convey from the subject before me?"
- Ansel Adams
Thank you for stopping in.

Universal Basic Income invokes shock and horror amongst the conservative chattering classes and skilled labour alike. Paying people to do "nothing", it is crazy and lazy! Or is it? When billionaires, libertarian leaders and astute politicians start promoting the idea, then we have to inform ourselves!
From Luddites to Blairites
Society is changing in the way it relates to economic activity. This sea-change of new technology replacing human tasks, is allegedly going to accelerate beyond the rate at which new human based jobs and livelihoods will be created. We are about to robotise menial and manual jobs such as shop service and public service /freight driving, while also on the more skilled end of human mental activity, let algorythms do the work of highly skilled accountants, scientists and even lawyers.
The great advance in computing is here, we can finally emulate the human brain in many activities, and in some, like motorway driving, outperform humans.
When transport workers and accountants get their redundancy notices, will there be a great cry of ' crush the machines' as the Luddites of the first industrial revolution demanded?
Will there be rather a slower transition, as the relatively expensive technology is rolled out in the larger firms first? Or will this be a rapid transition aided by the departure of the old school baby boomer management structures, who are largely reaching retirement age and taking their philosophies with them into senility (?).
Blairite- Wallmart economics – the UBI is already here anyway, yet complex and expensive to adminsiter ? ……………………………………………………………………..
Industrial Revolutions Revolve The Work Force
Why should this new industrial revolution reduce the number of workers when all other industrial revolutions and major innovations have actually lead to new wealth-creation and more jobs ?
In truth some jobs and professions have died away – take the 1960s typing pool- a hand written letter or shorhand dictat was taken to the ( girls) of the typing pool and returned to the originator often some days later. These typing pool employees needed to read, spell and type at 40 to 60 words a minute. They were whiped out within a ten year period, and even secretaries were removed from middle to upper management, just the reserve of VPs and the CEO. A cultural shift occured in the 1980s. The PC, spellchecker and there after the e-mail killed off these jobs.
The thing is that in that case women were emancipating themselves, and these menial jobs were no real loss to them. Computing also lead to new opportunities in data capture (punching in) and customer or supplier interaction. There were new needs for manual interpretation and interaction with databases and communication systems. They were getting educated, trained and advancing their own careers. There was a counter current which neutralised much of the change.
I was sayinhg to a friend just today, when we were young would be ever believe that two small start up companies foom the 1970 Apple and Microsoft would be bigger than GE, GM and the tourist infustry? Or that a social platform, a replacement for mail and telephone, would become the highest value company listed on the NY stock exchange?
So we also see then possibilities here for this kind of redirection. Also that human activity in a technological society tends towards higher value per person- both monetary and by value to society.
The reason that previous industrial revolutions driven by technology have lead to growth in standard of living and wealth is that on the one hand there are new tools delivered, while on the other there are new opportunies in the end product or service. With new tools we increase worker productivity, enhance often quality and reliability in the product, and enable new possibilities, often not envisaged when the new tool or process was first developed.
So for example the steam engine lead to the internal combustion engine, while the combination of the steam turbine and the turbo charger lead to the jet engine, which in its' end applicaton shrunk the world for us.
This 'revolution' is not the first time we have seen a quantum leap which displaces human labour. It is ironic yet illustrative that the terms 'calculator' and 'computer' both were used to describe professions in the 19 th Century. These tasks were done wholly by people. As tools, they allow us all access to accounting, engineering, drawing, image manipulatiin and communication. Yes they seem to just replace manual tasks, but they allow more people to access the skills and utilise the mathematics and technology.
Robots take over an entire human in a similar way as mechanical and then electronic calculators did. They displace a human from a menial task, or enhance the precision and repeatability of a skilled job. However the latter leads to even larger efficiency gains.ibduastrial welding and operational Robot and electronic guided machine tool manufacture became a major industry, and programming and maintaining them the new skill on the ground, while the companies engaging them could grow and offer higher value in the market. Which meant people could do new things, better things and often quality became more affordable.
Many highly informed pundits though, forsee a near future where millions of people will be economically displaced. In the USA they say that 3 million driving jobs will disappear. But in what time span? Do we need a UBI to smooth the transition and pick up those older or less literate workers who have difficulty in new professions? or does it happen slowly and natural wasteage (retirement and career exits) balances the disruptor ?
Lowering Barriers to Micro Industrialisation?
There is another barrier which is being overcome here with the super robot and algorythmic decision maker. The barrier to entry for new competitors.
These new 'super' robots are going to be affordable in aqusition and service- that is the reason many pundits think adoption is going to be so wide scale and hence displace so many human jobs. So although they add costs they take away human costs, and are in theory more productive than a single human.
Now if you imagine a robot or computing system able to do the job of ten people, yet the cost per unit is less than a single year for an employee, then small businesses can compete with bigger businesses in producting niche products or innovations in local markets. SME's can be close to their local customer or 'pyscically proximal' global customers. That is to say they can react rapidly to evolving needs and tailor products and services to that niche, or deliver a local product quickly. SME can offer that high degree of tailoring to customer, while also offering higher quality or perhaps even a cheaper version of a product than the main stream 'value added' offering.
We see this to some extent with the somewhat over hyped 3/D printing technologies. It can mean that a very cheap, local product can be made, or that a very high quality product can be made with high precision. New products not envisaged can be rapidly prototyped and come to the world as solid entities. Furthermore new service opportiunities, remembering the jet engine, can be rapidly created, tailored and disseminated. This means that new entrepreneurial activity is enabled with a focus on creativity and solving problems, two things humans still by in large out rank the CPU many fold.
What About the Trailer Park?
On the other hand then, what jobs are left for the unskilled, non-entrpreneurial section of society? Already they are economically margunalised and often as active in the black economy than the taxed one. They wont be designing, fixing or reprogramming the robots which habe taken their joibs. Is the new robot and algorythm technology going to be too large a crash across too large a section of the economy, jobs market and social strata that we will create destitution en masse fro, what is called the Precariat today – the precarious proletariat? Will social-mobility halt up as young adults can no longer work their way into and through college and university?
Ellon Musk and Mark Zuckenberg certainly do believe that we are on the brink of a sea change which is inevitable, but which will make human economic activity redundant in so many sectors and professions such that society will be profoundly disrupted by inequality and abject poverty.
Further market mechanism critique tbc lost in draft crash DO NOT RESTORE next time
Also a new bit on the 'hipster and home sale begging' future, which is already here. Offering high price on products which are only of slight better quality, "begging" from friends and relying on trainsient styles and fashions.
Where are the Social Democratic and Socialist Left on UBI ?
From the traditional left wing perspective, UBI is admitting defeat to market mechanisms over promoting living wages and engaging more of the workforce in useful jobs which better society.It is a simple sticking plaster over the ills of capitalism.
In effect we came to this capitulation in the UK with the Blairites and Gordon Brown's policies of making work pay, a form of gauranteed minimum income with flexibility for working part-time, mediated via benefits and tax credits. This was a major economic blunder in light of allowing weak labour laws to continue from the Thatcher era, permittting a culture of the lowest common denominator in employment , the zero hours contract, and the precarious temporary nature of working in the consumer service sector in particular. In turn these policies have reduced tax revenues from ordinary unskilled and semi skilled workers while increasing benefit payments in the periods they find their temporary contracts end, or their hours cut. Even average income workers with families can find they recieve more in tax credits and benefits than they pay in income tax in the UK.
The hope as with all political policy, was that economic growth would eventurally take more of these people out of benefits and make them into net tax payers, an essential element in any modern economy with an ageing population. The means of promoting economic growth are Neo Liberal, promoting flexibility in the labour market and deregulation. This is the biggest critique of the decade of Labour Blairite power- that they gave up fighting for workers rights, bar the minimum wage, and caved into the concepts which would eventually lower the standard of living for many of their own voters, plunging them into the part time/ temporary economy.
Even in the USA there is a form for UBI for part time workers which keeps Walmart supplied with cheap, disposable staff, and they can avoid all the 'on costs' associated to full time, permanent staff such as pensions or health care contributions. They found the lowest common denominator and kept policy in place via lobbying such that public money still supported their profits, while social un rest due to abject poverty were kept at bay due to welfare top ups and medicare for the poorest.
Neo-Liberals. The Weirdest Proponents of UBI
Neo Liberalism has some common sense in its often otherwise twisted philosophy. That of the existential individual. Really the modern labour movements and neo-socialists do not have much of the collectivist policy left when it comes to outdated concepts like the command economy. Here the two actually meet , full circle if you like, the extreme ends finally tieing in a bizarre consensus on UBI.
Neo Liberalists knew all along that they would need to have welfare in western economies in practice, because capitalism is inevitably a 'trickle up' affair which leads to social unrest. Policy makers under reagan and bush administrations made high profile cuts to social budgets, while in fact the budget for welfare increased and more employers started to use staff on a part time/ temporary basis. But in turn they have woken up in their key national economies, the US and the UK, to the huge structure in place to keep people sruviving – the "precariat" , the precarious position of the proletariat. The means of delivering and policing social welfare are hugely costly and labour intensive.
Also on the libertarian side, there is the element of personal freedom being constricted by government schemes which have rules and boundaries as to what economic or educational activities claimants can or cannot engage in before they lose their benefits or have to apply for other types of benefit. For willing participants, it is argued that it renders them under the wing of the nanny state, with an expectation that the government scheme will fix things for them. They will get personal improvement via the governments' action, via the beaurocracy.
Here then UBI has 'small government' appeal to Libertarians
On the liberal, neo-socialist side, we have then support for a basic standard of living, and as mentioned for the Blairite position, a capitulation to the way the market has evolved. A light administered 'living wage' which would cover an elementary costs of survival without means testing, just via computer based tax and registration comparisons, has great appeal because on the one hand it feeds people, while on the other it denies employers access to what is tantamount to slave labour- there is no compulsion from government to take work and live precariously, in and out of those expensive welfare systems.
From the 'socialist side' UBI delivered via efficient computing systems can be viewed as the final step to liberating the workforce from slavery. This being in that jobs are no longer viable when they barely cover subsistance, from low pay to zero hours contracts, and 'maggies farm' economics where by employment hot spots reduce wages to the same for skilled workers. Capital then has to develop more attractive packages for workers and allow them to work home office for example.
Social services ….
Cold Turkey for Welfare ?
Many arch neo liberalists and conservatives advocate the removal or all state welfare, for much the same reasons UBI is arguably flawed. Yet we have the reality here,not a possibility, that zero welfare leads to social unrest. Violence, crime, malnutrition, mafiaosa and emmigration. That is what happened before in history, and there is no difference today. There are no great charitable mechanisms, no mass food bank. There are guns, there are terrorist recruiters
Who then decides if you qualify for UBI? At what stage to you have to exit UBI or is there a transition, as a gauranteed minimum income which would potentially be more beaurocraticto administer. Do many actively choose to be UBI or is it something you have thrust upon you by default or culture? There is this element in the concept that it is a kind of default dialogue, that you would normally be unemployed or disabled or that your line of work makes you ill. Who says then you cannot qualify for UBI?
UBI is easier to administer than current systems because it is a simple payment. Opportunity for fraud are of course there, but with a stricter capture of identity electronically then it can be mediated automatically without any human staff. It is linked to income tax and declarations of sickness or unemployment, which can be fed into the system automatically. A field day for criminals? Well attempting to register a false identity becomes a bigger crime than it is today, as does identity theft. police time is freed from petty crime conducted by subsistance marginalised peoples in order to feed or entertain themselves, to catching organised criminals and violent gangs.
Picking up on the last points from previous section then we see that a minimum gauranteed income would reduce beaurocracy and increase personal freedom. However what are the down sides of injecting this money at the lower end of the unskilled and semi skilled workforce ?
Lost draf critique of Neo Liberalism lord in the castle feudalism, barricaded utopia, bread line, violent social unrest and revolution
Economic Criticisms of UBI
The main argument against UBI from main stream centre right economists is that it renders people lazy. There is no compulsion to work for the basics of life, so many millions will choose this route and become state dependents. However this position is a fact of life in the two major Neo Liberal economies, the US and the UK already. Otherwise there would be social unrest when large numbers of people cannot put bread on their table and cover the cost of their rents.
There is a cultural counter agrument to conservative thinking of the 'lazy bones society'- people want more than their basic subsistance, and strive for more. If you take away striving for basic survival then you find the large majority strive for more. It was always the intention of Blairite Brownite top up benefits to let people get more work experience and take up work, with the hope that many would be locked into the pay economy and not the benefits economy. This was not the case in reality over th elast two decades, as employers could reduce their costs by removing down time via zero hours contracts and seasonal employment, while still maintaining a willing (or often compelled) work force at this low cost.
Conservatives would then argue that this has to be paid for by taxes. Yes that is obvious. However how much does western society pay now and how inefficient are the state mechanisms for administering this? Proponents also point to the drop in crime and the improvement to health because the poorest can come out of malnutirtion, those suffering back problems or stress from office jobs can choose a new lifestyle, prople can choose more time for sport and exercise.
It seems very utopian, unrealistic. Surely it would be overly tempting to turn on, tune in and sign up? The question the leaders of the new technological industries pose, is what are we going to do with all the people who do not have the ever higher level of skill and education required to run their businesses and utilise or service their technology? Is the alternative not dystopian, where human life and effort is not valued in terms of say 20 / 30% of the working popuilation?
The Libertarian Rentier Economy Is the Reason UBI Could Fail
UBI also applies to handicapped people and when you are sick. So it sounds like a win win all round. Back up here though, we are like the Affordable Care Act, injecting large amounts of money into the economic system.
Here we come to the doyen concept of Neo Liberalism, the unfettered predominance and power of the rentier economy. The natural law for the powerful, the rich to extract more from our very existences rather than our productive output. Our housing, our transport, our water, our power, our basic staples and basic shopping. Trickle up, and when it concerns housing, often a torrent.
With no social housing policy or rent controls, UBI is an irresistable inflationary surge. In fact the rentiers themselves may libby for UBI as a means to flow more value in rent and asset worth up to them, in the way Walmart support welfare 'rights'. Also it could lead to a new credit bubble if individuals lever their new secure income against consumer credit.
UBI becomes then self defeating it would seem, as its value is inevitably erroded by inflation, with no counter acting productivity gains?
Also would we see the spread of 'internships' where to gain skills ornexperience it is expected that you live on UBI? Would we see a further displacement of labour in other sectors due to the availability of bored UBI'ers ? Would we see more work become part time and tenuous as employers learn to use those on UBI ?
more on the basics are covered and game theory
Market mechanistic theory would however also produce counter arguments to the erosion of the value of a UBI by inflation. Because a UBI is not tied to living in one place. Suddenly people in high rent areas can move to lower priced areas which they can afford. They also have time to build their own housing, and gain training to do so. People in work struggeling to make ends meett can vote with their feet and opt of UBI, reducing their income, but then also moving away from the over priced metropolitan and sunrise valley areas. So there are different countering market mechanisms to the possibilty for run away inflation. It gives a kind of ultimatum to capital – make employment pay or we will leave employment. Make jobs interesting and fulfilling or we will fulfill ourselves and find new economic activity from a base line of UBI.
Existentialism to the Rescue of UBI ?
To counter the inflation-anullation argument against UBI, we can see that people are no longer trapped in using their time to simply survive. They become more mobile. If rents go up in one area,they need not worry about moving to a cheap non metropolitan area. Or they may use their time to buildn their own house, and even lobby, organise and build housing in their communities. Free from beaurocratic demands to take low value work, they can take education and work practice in skilled trades while still feeding and housing themselves.
Today in most all western societies a black and white model of work and welfare has developed. You are either in work and trying to make ends meet, sometimes forced to accept what you can, or you are out of work on benefits.You are not allowed to keep benefits and work as you choose or as it becomes available. Gordon Brown's 'make work always pay' hss lead to more margjnalisation not less, it has locked millions into precarious personal economics and state dependency.
Here we also can consider what is happening with Face Book's income and more specifically where it is coming from. By in large the corporates have not been hugely active on FB compared to Google and TV. When was the last time you saw a Coca Cola Advert on FB? Or had a 'push post' from General Electric without you Liking their profile? Facebook have related to the media that much of their 8 billion dollar advertising spend comes from small enterprises. To them FB is cheap, less than ten dollars per thousand or more reach to views, and less than 20 dollars per conversion to sale, or per new potentially loyal customer. The business is granular and below the radar of 'anti corporate' negaitve sentiment. If Fb are being candid, then we are not being spammed by the grey suits, we are being wooed by hipsters and spinster start ups on our FB newsfeeds.
Individual bargaining….lost in draft fail crash. Black mail, pay to play. game theory
Futurology on robots making robots automation removing capital control, excessive gross marhing for staff and profit removed, Utopia behind the barricades
We have nboth utopian and dystopian visions, but the facts are in front of uis. Major western economies already have mechanisms of UBI for marginal workforce, disabled and chronically sick. Robotisation is going to replace thousands of unskilled/semiskilled and automation of more cranial operator tasks with software utilsing algorythms
Workfare policies becoming the norm for UBI and really getting back to slavery. Libertarian ppiint of view that it is then the govern,ment who are directing what people do at work, or perhaps employers as mentioned take up UBI instead of ordinary employees at minimal cost with an element of compulsion, and a lose lose for government tax returns as tax paying employees are displaced.
Market mechnisms or government could be replaced: cost per service affordable vs tax and inefficient or the need for major service management neo liberal compulsory compet tendering removed and competiton being for the mechatronics, the computer systems, which eventually enter dminishing returns

December is off to a fantastic start with new royal engagements and lots of holiday cheer ahead. I can't wait to see what Kate and Meghan will be wearing on Christmas Day!
With the holiday season officially in full swing, all of us seem to be crazy busy. I definitely get overwhelmed in December, and so this year I was careful to plan ahead and make things less crazy. I bought and even wrapped many of my gifts the week after Christmas last year (and saved a ton of money). Then I bought the rest online on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Even tiny steps like having my return address pre-printed on our Christmas card envelopes saved me time. I'm definitely going to do this every year now!
Carve some time out for yourself during this hectic month, too! Take a few minutes out of your day to pour a glass of wine or a cuppa and catch up on your favorite blogs, read a royal magazine or book, or flick on a fun Christmas movie (maybe not A Christmas Prince: The Royal Wedding, but more on that later).
On that note, check out what I've been loving this month!
Red tartan skirts
I usually save outfit posts for the Royal Style Roundup, but with many of us attending Christmas parties and events in the coming weeks, I thought I'd share this one now.
Kate's festive red tartan skirt had me (and loads of others) feeling mad for plaid this week. If you're looking for one that's not in the thousandish dollar range, check out a few ideas I found. I ordered the Amazon version but it hasn't arrived yet, so stay tuned!
The Queen and the First Christmas Tree
My friend Katelin recommended this book to me and I one-clicked it about two seconds later for my son. If you have kids, and especially if you like to subtly brainwash them into being royalists (raising my hand), this is the perfect book to read over the Christmas season. It teaches them some royal history in a very accessible way and has beautiful illustrations, too. This one will be interesting for both of us to read, so win-win! It arrived in only a day from Amazon Prime too, which is always nice.
A Royal Christmas
While we're on the topic of royal Christmas history, A Royal Christmas is the December pick for Royally Good Reads (the online book club I run with my friend Mallory). If reading about the royal family and their festive traditions over the centuries is your jam, then you'll love this book. The Royal Collection Trust really dived into the archives and shared loads of things I didn't know about Christmas with the royals. Jules and I talked about it on our latest episode of the We'll Never Be Royal podcast, so if you want to hear more, definitely tune in! You can find us pretty much wherever you listen to podcasts (Apple, Google, Stitcher, Spotify, etc.)
Royal Christmas Movies
A Christmas Prince: The Royal Wedding
I'm actually not a person who is obsessed with Hallmark (or Hallmark-esque) Christmas movies. I don't hate them or anything, and I enjoy them when I do watch, but I don't go out of my way to turn one on. But somehow I ended up watching A Christmas Prince on Netflix last year and became obsessed! Obviously, I was super excited to find out there was a royal wedding sequel this year. I'd love to say it was "so bad it's good" like the original, but sadly, it was so bad it was just … BAD.
If you watched my Instagram stories in the past week you know I was shocked and appalled at the lack of tiara (COME ON, IT'S A ROYAL WEDDING!) and general lack of hairdressing/makeup/wardrobe people on this film. It was like they had absolutely zero budget and didn't care because they knew everyone would watch it, anyway. And the plot … let's not even go there. I mean, it kept me somewhat entertained while I wrote out my Christmas cards, so there's that. But this might fall into the "royally obsessed with hating this movie" category.
The Princess Switch
This movie, on the other hand, was glorious! I had several people recommend it to me and I was worried it would be kind of hokey in a Parent Trap sort of way (Vanessa Hudgens plays a baker and a royal bride-to-be who look exactly alike and switch places for two days) but it's all just fun and escapist and Christmassy. It pretty much ticks off all the great things about royal Christmas movies: fake kingdom, a commoner pretending to be royal, fancy ballroom scene, TIARAS (take notes, A Christmas Prince), excellent clothing, sleigh rides, cute children … need I go on.
Okay, the "I'm totally in love with you after two days" thing is a bit suspect, but it's a Christmas movie so I'll let that go. Go watch the movie this weekend on Netflix and you'll thank me.
Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Re.Pair Serum
When a fancy facial like Meghan gets isn't in the budget, I turn to Sephora. I've had my acne problems well under control for a year and a half or so (read my post about it here) but in the past couple of weeks, I've weirdly been getting small breakouts here and there. I'll blame it on holiday parties! Staying up late, drinking alcohol, and eating sweets isn't quite the right regimen for decent skin.
This Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Serum was recommended to me by my friend Kevin, who just started a skincare blog called Dermunity. Well, he was right because it cleared the spots right up in a couple of days! You can find it from Sephora for $46 (I used a coupon during Cyber Week). It's not super cheap, but certainly not as pricey as some skincare products out there. I will definitely keep this one in my skincare rotation!
A quick housekeeping note: A few of you have asked, and since November and December are so busy, I'm taking a break from the Royal Style of the Month column until the New Year. If you're a new follower, this is when I highlight a specific piece Kate or Meghan has worn like a dress, shoe, or bag, and readers send in photos of them wearing it. Look for a new edition in January!
Happy holidays,

Is climate change wreaking weather havoc? Evolving science seeks answers
When San Francisco hit 103 degrees in June 2000, a new high after more than a century of record-keeping, the forces of global warming were likely at work. But scientists weren't ready to go there.
Climate change had barely become a household term, and teasing out its complex role in single events that are largely at the mercy of natural weather variability was unthinkable.
Seventeen years later, as the Bay Area recovers from another round of record heat that pushed San Francisco to a new pinnacle of 106 degrees — and as a deadly lineup of storms pounds the southern United States and the Caribbean — climate researchers are making these critical but elusive connections.
There's still no simple answer to the question, "Was that hurricane caused by climate change?" But scientists can now often say whether an event was more likely, and more severe, due to the warming planet.
A team of experts at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, among the pioneers of the evolving science of extreme event attribution, estimated that human-caused climate change probably raised temperatures in California by as much as 4 degrees last week.
Similar accounting has been done for the California drought and strings of wildfires across the West, as well as the catastrophic hurricanes Harvey and Irma, whose devastation continues to unfold.
The ability to quantify the influence of global warming on a single event is important not only because it brings urgency to the threat of climate change, but because it could help communities understand exactly what they're up against. Those seeking stronger responses to global warming have been frustrated by the information gap.
While scientists can't blame climate change for causing any one weather system, studies have found that past heat waves in both the U.S. and abroad were so unlikely in the absence of global warming that there was little other explanation for what drove them. Eventually, the research could find that climate change is the primary engine behind some disasters.
"Scientifically we've come a long way," said Noah Diffenbaugh, an Earth system scientist at Stanford University who is among those tracking the fingerprints of climate change on weather.
"Around 2000 or so, you mostly would have heard from the scientific community that we can't draw any connection between global warming and any extreme event," Diffenbaugh said. "What has happened since, particularly in the past five years, is an explosion of research by multiple groups that are working very hard to pose and test hypotheses of how global warming is possibly influencing individual events."
In theory, the role of climate change in weather patterns, particularly heat waves, is fairly straightforward. Greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane, prevent sunlight from escaping into space, and raise temperatures.
These higher temperatures play out in a number of ways. Warmer air, for example, means more evaporation, which puts more moisture in the atmosphere. So when storms or hurricanes develop, there's more water for these systems to wring out. Higher temperatures are also melting ice caps and raising sea levels, meaning bigger storm surges and additional flooding.
In the case of Harvey, which slammed into southeast Texas early last week and dropped more than 50 inches of rain in some places, extraordinarily warm ocean water gave the hurricane an added burst of energy.
Climate experts trying to isolate the role of global warming on an Atlantic Ocean storm track that has always spawned vicious hurricanes have offered several appraisals. Some suggest that 10 to 15 percent of Harvey's rainfall was due to human-caused climate change.
The estimates are based on vast wells of historical weather data that scientists use to model various scenarios — with and without the influence of global warming.
These models have improved from being able to detect the influence of climate change across a series of extreme events and over large swaths of land to pinpointing its role in smaller, shorter events, such as wildfires and big storms. And the results are coming back faster and faster.
"The confidence in one that you spend many years on is better than one you'd do on the back of an envelope. But we do them on the back of an envelope," said Michael Wehner, senior staff scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
Wehner's team has looked at dozens of extreme weather episodes, sometimes drawing up models just as an event occurs, as was the case with California's recent blast of heat. With one of the fastest computers on the planet, the team deduced that climate change made the event four to seven times more likely and raised temperatures 2 to 4 degrees.
Other models require more time, like Wehner's examination of a 2015 heat wave in India and Pakistan that killed nearly 4,500 people. Wehner concluded in a paper published last year that human activities made the event as much as 1,000 times more likely.
"We don't make statements like 'climate change caused that event,'" he stressed. "We make one or two statements: How does climate influence the magnitude and how has climate change affected the chances of that event occurring?"
In many cases, both the probability and severity of extreme weather have gone up substantially with global warming, Wehner has found.
Diffenbaugh, at Stanford, has done similar work with the California drought. His models suggest climate change fostered conditions that made the historic five-year dry spell twice as likely.
Calculating the likelihood of extreme events, he said, can be done so accurately now that it can help cities and states plan for long-term changes in weather, at least to a point.
"If you're asking about the temperature in my driveway on a particular date next year or three years from now, there's a lot of noise," Diffenbaugh said. "But what we are able to do is calculate the statistical probabilities."
Some researchers say they've begun to go even further.
Michael Mann, a professor of atmospheric science at Pennsylvania State University, published a paper in March describing a climate-caused mechanism behind extreme weather events, which could eventually help with forecasting — once the link is better understood.
According to his research, the normally mobile jet stream high in the atmosphere is locking into place at the same time that floods, droughts and heat waves are wreaking havoc below.
"Some of my colleagues are trying to operationalize this sort of analysis," Mann said. "Such predictive capabilities would presumably lead to more resilience on the part of stakeholders and impacted populations."

This year is a monumental one for the MTV Video Music Awards as the show officially turns 35. The VMAs hand out numerous trophies for achievement in the music video artform and its biggest honor, the Video of the Year category, is always talked about — but who will win this time?
The list of nominees — "Havana" by Camila Cabello (feat. Young Thug), "Apeshit" by The Carters (Beyoncé and Jay-Z), "God's Plan" by Drake, "This is America" by Childish Gambino, "No Tears Left to Cry" by Ariana Grande, and "Finesse (Remix)" by Bruno Mars (feat. Cardi B) — are all great, but there can only be one. We here at A Plus decided to take a stroll through history to try and figure out who will win big.
Let's analyze each of these eye-catching music videos and their associated acts to try and predict what might happen on August 20. Who will be giving an acceptance speech when accepting that iconic "Moon Person" trophy? Let's see!
"Havana" by Camila Cabello (feat. Young Thug)
Perhaps the biggest history-making moment would come from first-time nominee Cabello winning, as there have been no Latinx winners in this category ever. Born in Cuba, the former Fifth Harmony member beautifully paid tribute musically to her home country with "Havana," which has garnered nearly 665 million views (as of today) since dropping. Cabello's win would also be of note because, even though she is Cuban American, a non-U.S. acts has only taken home this honor 8 out of 34 times, or about 23.5 percent of the time. This would be a major moment for diversity and inclusion in the music industry, cementing Cabello as a force going forward.
"Apeshit" by The Carters (Beyoncé and Jay-Z)
If there's an MVP of MTV's top category at this show, Beyoncé is certainly on the shortlist. She is only 1 of 3 people to win this category more than once — tied with Eminem and Rihanna — for "Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It") and "Formation." Prior to "Apeshit," which has nearly 101 million views (as of today), Jay-Z has only been nominated once, paling in comparison to Beyoncé's six. Never before has a married couple been nominated for the same song, so they would be history-makers in that regard, but both, mostly Bey (sorry, Jay), give "Apeshit" a bit of an edge over the others. Consider this the legacy option.
"God's Plan" by Drake
Only four times prior has a rap/hip-hop solo artist taken home this prize: Eminem (twice), Missy Elliot, and Kendrick Lamar (the latest winner). That means that less than 12 percent of the time, this genre of artistry has been honored and it remains to be seen if the feel-good "God's Plan" will be able to pull it off. Perhaps it will be a time to finally let Drake, who has been nominated in this category three times so far, take it home — after all, "God's Plan" does have a little over 775 million views (as of today). All that said, remember that only about 23.5 percent of the time has a non-U.S. act won in this category, with the last — and only — Canadian one being Neil Young.
"This is America" by Childish Gambino
Similar to Drake, Childish Gambino (real name Donald Glover) finds few winners in this category like him in regards to his style of music. What he has going for him, though, is a music video that had everyone talking — whether you consider it a timely work of art or not. "This is America" has about 368 million views (as of today) and, though it marks Childish Gambino's first nomination, it comes at a time when our country is hyper-focused on the social issues highlighted in this work. This also wouldn't be the first time an artist who also happens to be an actor has won, with that happening about 35 percent of the time, with 12 of the 34 occasions.
"No Tears Left to Cry" by Ariana Grande
While the Video of the Year category used to honor bands above single acts, we have seen a surge of female pop stars taking home the prize as of late. It started with Madonna and has gone on to include wins from Rihanna (twice), Britney Spears, Beyoncé (twice), Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, and Taylor Swift. That means that Ariana Grande would be the next with "No Tears Left to Cry," which has about 483 million views (as of today) and would improve upon the just under 30 percent of women in pop winning the grand prize, which has happened 10 times out of 34 (not counting the "Lady Marmalade" of it all, which was a hodge-podge of girl power).
"Finesse (Remix)" by Bruno Mars (feat. Cardi B)
Last up for this year is "Finesse (Remix)" by Bruno Mars, which could benefit from the Cardi B effect. The music video has nearly 469 million views (as of today) and is a nostalgic throwback that could win over voters. Mars, as a solo male artist, doesn't have a great chance based on that description alone as only seven times out of 34 has a man, who isn't in a band, taken home the trophy here — or a little less than 21 percent of the time (and two of those wins were from Eminem). That said, after three previous nominations maybe it's time for Mars to finally win — after all, U.S. acts perform better here. All that said, this feels like the most fun choice … not much else.
Now that we've finished analyzing this year's deserving nominees, why don't you check out the full list of past winners to get ready for the musical showdown:

For our Victorian style presentation, we perform in clothing reminiscent of the late 19th or early 20th Century. Carolers of the time were not typically wealthy. In fact, they were often caroling in order to make money, so the clothing the carolers wore was not lavish. We strive for an authentic period appearance and performance. For our full set which combines Victorian with modern, you can request either Victorian or modern black concert dress with holiday accessories.

I was at Sierra Cycle Works for some biking gear yesterday and I got to ride this cool bike that had an internal 18 speed gearbox integrated into the bottom bracket with a Gates carbon belt drive. It shifts great under a load, has a large range (lower low-higher high) with evenly spaced gears and is maintenance free. You don't need to lube your chain every ride, or worry about breaking off a rear shifter. This also helps eliminate chain alignment issues with 5 inch tires. This system will be great for the type of riding we use fatbikes for ie: Sand, Snow, loose dirt…. We just need some fatbike frame manufacturers to integrate the Pinion into their frames.
