Update: Sunday Strike Deadline Looms for Janitors, Security Officers
SEIU Local 26 reports talks for contract security officers broken off but negotiations continue for office janitors.
Update (Friday evening, Feb. 22):
SEIU Local 26 issued the following statement early this evening: "This afternoon negotiations with contractors for SEIU Local 26 security officers ended without a contract, despite a Sunday deadline from workers to strike."
Without a new contract, security officers have vowed they will go on strike as early as Monday.
Negotiations continued, however, for janitors, who are prepared to stay the whole night to win a new contract. The Minneapolis-St. Paul Contract Cleaners Association has said its willing to stay as late as it takes to negotiate a new contract before the Sunday deadline workers set.
SEIU Local 26 janitors have said they will also go on strike as early as Monday if they do not win a new contract by Sunday.
Friday morning, Feb. 22:
SEIU Local 26 reports its bargaining committees representing janitors and security officers headed back to the table with their employers in a last-ditch effort to negotiate a contract for 6,000 of its members in the Twin Cities.
The workers approved strike authorization earlier this month, and just this week announced Sunday as the deadline to win new contracts before going on strike.
In a press statement, the union said its negotiators are willing to stay as long as it takes to reach an agreement. "We have sleeping bags and pillows and we're ready to talk through the night to make sure that hard work gets rewarded in Minnesota again," Alfredo Estrada, a janitor at the Minnesota Center, said in a statement.
The Minneapolis-St. Paul Contract Cleaners Association have told Local 26 they are also prepared to stay as late as it takes, the union said. (Initial proposals from the janitorial employers included cutting more than 1,200 full-time positions and eliminating employer-based insurance benefits.)
Security employers, however, have said they will only negotiate until 4 p.m., Local 26 said.
Tuesday, Feb. 19:
SEIU Local 26 on Tuesday issued a press statement, asserting that "if employers do not propose fair contracts that help move workers forward by Sunday, Local 26 members are likely to strike the week of Feb. 25, perhaps as early as Monday." The union has classified the potential work stoppage as an " Unfair Labor Practices" strike.
Meanwhile, in a similar but separate labor dispute, retail cleaning workers who serve Target and other stores in the Twin Cities have vowed to walk off their jobs as early as this Sunday if their employers continue to refuse to open discussions with them and the Centro de Trabajodores Unidos en la Lucha (CTUL), according to the workers' group.
The CTUL said it is a Minneapolis workers center that has been organizing the workers for more than two years. The potential work stoppage against some contract cleaning firms would affect Target stores at more than a dozen Twin Cities locations.
(Original post, Feb. 10)
More than 500 Twin Cities-area union janitors and security officers voted unanimously Saturday (Feb. 9)to give their bargaining committees strike authorization in the slow-moving labor negotiations.
Saturday's vote means that the janitors' and security officers' bargaining committees representing more than 6,000 janitors throughout Minneapolis, St. Paul and the suburbs could call for a strike at any time, according to the workers' union, Service Employees International Union (SEIU) Local 26.
SEIU representatives said they been bargaining for months for new contracts and that the groups have been working since Dec. 31 without new contracts. The union said that management is proposing cuts in full-time positions, wages and health care benefits.
"If my job was cut to part-time, it would be like suicide," Brahim Kone, a janitor at Flint Hills refinery, said in an union press statement. "I make just enough money now to pay the bills for my wife and my two children. I fear if my wages were cut, I would lose my home. "
The union said security contractors have proposed moving hundreds of positions to part-time, eliminating all benefits and access to health care. Janitorial contractors are proposing cuts to more than 50 percent of janitors, with cuts as high as 40 percent for many members. "For many workers, health coverage for their family would cost around $700 a month," the union said in a press statement Saturday.
Joining the Local 26 members for their strike vote was U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minnesota, as well as dozens of community allies, the union said.
The Minneapolis-St. Paul Contract Cleaners Association was not immediately available for comment.
David Duddleston, a Minneapolis attorney representing the security contractors, issued this statement on behalf of his clients:
"The contractors employing the security officers are bargaining in good faith. Both sides are scheduled to meet with one another twice next week and have other scheduled meetings after that. The contractors will continue, as they believe the union will also continue, to make further progress toward reaching a collective bargaining agreement."
The workers' votes to authorize strikes, if necessary, are ultimately likely to push the parties to sit down at the negotiations table and hammer out new agreements. For example, three years ago, Local 26 janitors gave the union strike authorization but they were able to avert a work stoppage and reached a settlement with management.
Still, if a strike were to occur this time, a labor stoppage would affect commercial office buildings at hundreds of locations across the Twin Cities, from Apple Valley and Burnsville to Stillwater and Woodbury.
A media representative for Local 26 said the union has janitors and security officers working at these buildings across the metro:
Apple Valley – Anchor Bank, Dakota County West Service Center
Burnsville – Gateway Office Plaza, Park Nicollet Clinic
Eagan – Thomson Reuters, TCA National Headquarters, Ecolab, Blue Cross – Yankee place and Waterview, plus corporate

"I make just enough money now to pay the bills for my wife and my two children. I fear if my wages were cut, I would lose my home. "
What qualifications does one need to be a janitor? A sixth grade education?
Maybe Brahim should aspire to more than pushing a broom and dumping wastebaskets if he wants to support his family.
Unions are nifty ways for less qualified people to get paid more than what their labor will bring on the open market. Hopefully when they go on strike, the companies listed will replace them with lower paid non-union janitors and security personnel. Then it won't cost me as much for my toilet paper, toothpaste and scotch tape.

Markus I love how people like you say that unions or for less qualified people to make more than what their labor will bring on the open market. You are obviously clueless. Maybe your boss one day will say hey I can hire this new kid straight out of college and he will take a fraction of the pay. Then you get laid off or even worse your boss looks for some BS excuse to fire you then deny your application for unemployment. That's why people join unions. So things like that have less of a chance of happening. To collectively bargain for wages and benefits, and first and foremost provide the very best they can for their families.

The Janitors have reached a tentative agreement. Security Guards still negotiation.
"One day before a planned strike deadline, Twin Cities janitors and their employers reached a tentative agreement Saturday afternoon on a three-year contract. But security guards who are part of the same union will go into Sunday with no talks planned and a midnight strike deadline looming." from Stib article

'McDreamy' says he beat Starbucks for coffee chain
SEATTLE (AP) — "Grey's Anatomy" star Patrick Dempsey may be the real "McSteamy."
The actor, who was dubbed "McDreamy" as a star of the hospital drama while his co-star was called "McSteamy," may soon be serving hot, steaming cups of Joe.
Dempsey won a bankruptcy auction to buy Tully's Coffee, a small coffee chain based in Seattle. Among those he beat out is Tully's much bigger Seattle neighbor, Starbucks Corp., which is known for its ubiquitous white cups with a circular green mermaid logo.
Dempsey, whose company Global Baristas LLC plans to keep the Tully's name, declared victory on the social media site Twitter: "We met the green monster, looked her in the eye, and...SHE BLINKED! We got it! Thank you Seattle!
The win for Dempsey deals a rare setback for Starbucks on its home turf. Starbucks has long been both praised for bringing "coffeehouse culture" to the U.S. and criticized for crushing smaller chains. The coffee giant, which had planned to convert the Tully's cafes to its own brand, last month announced plans to expand its global footprint to 20,000 cafes over the next two years, up from the current 18,000.
Dempsey said in an interview on Friday that as the underdog in Seattle, Tully's will need to find its identity.
"It's a much smaller chain that has a lot of potential that hasn't been given the proper care," he said.
But in a statement shortly after the auction on Thursday, Starbucks insinuated that Dempsey shouldn't celebrate just yet.
Starbucks, which wanted to convert the Tully's cafes to its own brand, said that a final determination on the winning bid won't be made until a court hearing on Jan. 11. Starbucks said it's in a "back-up" position" to buy 25 of the 47 Tully's cafes, with another undisclosed bidder making an offer for the remainder.
The combined bids of Starbucks and the undisclosed bidder come to $10.6 million, above the $9.2 million Dempsey's company is offering to pay through his company, which was formed in order to purchase Tully's. The other investors in Global Baristas aren't being disclosed. Continued...
Tully's Coffee, which is known for serving Joe with a milder taste than Starbucks brand, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in October, citing lease obligations and underperforming stores. Tully's wholesale business, which includes Tully's Coffee in bags and single serve K-cup packs that are sold in supermarkets and other stores, is owned separately by Green Mountain Coffee Roasters Inc.
TC Global Inc., the parent company of Tully's, said in a release Friday that it was "encouraged and excited" about Dempsey's commitment to the chain.
Tully's President and CEO Scott Pearson called the deal a "great match" and that the goal is to make sure creditors get paid and to keep as many people employed as possible.
Dempsey said he planned to be very involved in the running of the company, adding that the immediate challenges were to address bookkeeping issues, staff morale and sprucing up the coffee shops. Once the business is stabilized, Dempsey said the long-term goal would be to take the chain national.
"We can pull this off. We just have to take steps that are slow and smart," he said. "I'm going to get behind the counter. I'm going to serve coffee...I'm going to give the company a boost of energy."
Although Dempsey lives in Los Angeles, he plans to spend more time in Seattle, the city where "Grey's Anatomy" is set in. Dempsey said he believed there is room in the city for Tully's and the much larger Starbucks; he noted there might be people who are rooting for the underdog.
"In a society where there are so many big corporations that swallow the little guy, we thought, let's not let this happen to this company," he said.
Dempsey made an appearance Friday morning at a Tully's near Pike Place Market, shaking hands with workers and greeting customers before visiting other stores. Several dozen people, mostly women, came into the store.
Patrease Estelle, 45, works nearby, and came in with a small group from her office.
"I will take whatever I can get. A photo, a hug, a 'hey, how you doing,' a wink," said Estelle, who got a picture and handshake with the actor. Continued...

ethics, also called moral philosophy, the discipline concerned with what is morally good and bad, right and wrong. The term is also applied to any system or theory of moral values or principles.
How should we live? Shall we aim at happiness or at knowledge, virtue, or the creation of beautiful objects? If we choose happiness, will it be our own or the happiness of all? And what of the more particular questions that face us: is it right to be dishonest in a good cause? Can we justify living in opulence while elsewhere in the world people are starving? Is going to war justified in cases where it is likely that innocent people will be killed? Is it wrong to clone a human being or to destroy human embryos in medical research? What are our obligations, if any, to the generations of humans who will come after us and to the nonhuman animals with whom we share the planet?
Ethics deals with such questions at all levels. Its subject consists of the fundamental issues of practical decision making, and its major concerns include the nature of ultimate value and the standards by which human actions can be judged right or wrong.
The terms ethics and morality are closely related. It is now common to refer to ethical judgments or to ethical principles where it once would have been more accurate to speak of moral judgments or moral principles. These applications are an extension of the meaning of ethics. In earlier usage, the term referred not to morality itself but to the field of study, or branch of inquiry, that has morality as its subject matter. In this sense, ethics is equivalent to moral philosophy.
Although ethics has always been viewed as a branch of philosophy, its all-embracing practical nature links it with many other areas of study, including anthropology, biology, economics, history, politics, sociology, and theology. Yet, ethics remains distinct from such disciplines because it is not a matter of factual knowledge in the way that the sciences and other branches of inquiry are. Rather, it has to do with determining the nature of normative theories and applying these sets of principles to practical moral problems.
This article, then, will deal with ethics as a field of philosophy, especially as it has developed in the West. For coverage of religious conceptions of ethics and the ethical systems associated with world religions, see Buddhism; Christianity; Confucianism; Hinduism; Jainism; Judaism; Sikhism.
The origins of ethics
Mythical accounts
Introduction of moral codes
When did ethics begin and how did it originate? If one has in mind ethics proper—i.e., the systematic study of what is morally right and wrong—it is clear that ethics could have come into existence only when human beings started to reflect on the best way to live. This reflective stage emerged long after human societies had developed some kind of morality, usually in the form of customary standards of right and wrong conduct. The process of reflection tended to arise from such customs, even if in the end it may have found them wanting. Accordingly, ethics began with the introduction of the first moral codes.
Virtually every human society has some form of myth to explain the origin of morality. In the Louvre in Paris there is a black Babylonian column with a relief showing the sun god Shamash presenting the code of laws to Hammurabi (died c. 1750 bce), known as the Code of Hammurabi. The Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) account of God's giving the Ten Commandments to Moses (flourished 14th–13th century bce) on Mount Sinai might be considered another example. In the dialogue Protagoras by Plato (428/427–348/347 bce), there is an avowedly mythical account of how Zeus took pity on the hapless humans, who were physically no match for the other beasts. To make up for these deficiencies, Zeus gave humans a moral sense and the capacity for law and justice, so that they could live in larger communities and cooperate with one another.
That morality should be invested with all the mystery and power of divine origin is not surprising. Nothing else could provide such strong reasons for accepting the moral law. By attributing a divine origin to morality, the priesthood became its interpreter and guardian and thereby secured for itself a power that it would not readily relinquish. This link between morality and religion has been so firmly forged that it is still sometimes asserted that there can be no morality without religion. According to this view, ethics is not an independent field of study but rather a branch of theology (see moral theology).
There is some difficulty, already known to Plato, with the view that morality was created by a divine power. In his dialogue Euthyphro, Plato considered the suggestion that it is divine approval that makes an action good. Plato pointed out that, if this were the case, one could not say that the gods approve of such actions because they are good. Why then do they approve of them? Is their approval entirely arbitrary? Plato considered this impossible and so held that there must be some standards of right or wrong that are independent of the likes and dislikes of the gods. Modern philosophers have generally accepted Plato's argument, because the alternative implies that if, for example, the gods had happened to approve of torturing children and to disapprove of helping one's neighbours, then torture would have been good and neighbourliness bad.
Problems of divine origin
A modern theist (see theism) might say that, since God is good, God could not possibly approve of torturing children nor disapprove of helping neighbours. In saying this, however, the theist would have tacitly admitted that there is a standard of goodness that is independent of God. Without an independent standard, it would be pointless to say that God is good; this could mean only that God is approved of by God. It seems therefore that, even for those who believe in the existence of God, it is impossible to give a satisfactory account of the origin of morality in terms of divine creation. A different account is needed.
There are other possible connections between religion and morality. It has been said that, even if standards of good and evil exist independently of God or the gods, divine revelation is the only reliable means of finding out what these standards are. An obvious problem with this view is that those who receive divine revelations, or who consider themselves qualified to interpret them, do not always agree on what is good and what is evil. Without an accepted criterion for the authenticity of a revelation or an interpretation, people are no better off, so far as reaching moral agreement is concerned, than they would be if they were to decide on good and evil themselves, with no assistance from religion.
Traditionally, a more important link between religion and ethics was that religious teachings were thought to provide a reason for doing what is right. In its crudest form, the reason was that those who obey the moral law will be rewarded by an eternity of bliss while everyone else roasts in hell. In more sophisticated versions, the motivation provided by religion was more inspirational and less blatantly self-interested. Whether in its crude or its sophisticated version, or something in between, religion does provide an answer to one of the great questions of ethics: "Why should I be moral?" (See below Ethics and reasons for action.) As will be seen in the course of this article, however, the answer provided by religion is not the only one available.
Prehuman ethics
Nonhuman behaviour
Because, for obvious reasons, there is no historical record of a human society in the period before it had any standards of right and wrong, history cannot reveal the origins of morality. Nor is anthropology of any help, because all the human societies that have been studied so far had their own forms of morality (except perhaps in the most extreme circumstances). Fortunately, another mode of inquiry is available. Because living in social groups is a characteristic that humans share with many other animal species—including their closest relatives, the apes—presumably the common ancestor of humans and apes also lived in social groups. Here, then, in the social behaviour of nonhuman animals and in the theory of evolution that explains such behaviour may be found the origins of human morality.
Social life, even for nonhuman animals, requires constraints on behaviour. No group can stay together if its members make frequent, unrestrained attacks on each other. With some exceptions, social animals generally either refrain altogether from attacking other members of the social group or, if an attack does take place, do not make the ensuing struggle a fight to the death—it is over when the weaker animal shows submissive behaviour. It is not difficult to see analogies here with human moral codes. The parallels, however, go much further than this. Like humans, social animals may behave in ways that benefit other members of the group at some cost or risk to themselves. Male baboons threaten predators and cover the rear as the troop retreats. Wolves and wild dogs take meat back to members of the pack not present at the kill. Gibbons and chimpanzees with food will, in response to a gesture, share their food with other members of the group. Dolphins support other sick or injured dolphins, swimming under them for hours at a time and pushing them to the surface so they can breathe.
It may be thought that the existence of such apparently altruistic behaviour is odd, for evolutionary theory states that those who do not struggle to survive and reproduce will be eliminated through natural selection. Research in evolutionary theory applied to social behaviour, however, has shown that evolution need not be so ruthless. Some of this altruistic behaviour is explained by kin selection. The most obvious examples are those in which parents make sacrifices for their offspring. If wolves help their cubs to survive, it is more likely that genetic characteristics, including the characteristic of helping their own cubs, will spread through further generations of wolves.

One of the challenges I had not expected when I got pregnant was where to buy maternity clothes.
I figured I'd have no trouble finding places that carried maternity clothes I would want to wear. I was wrong. I found my selections in this region to be very limited.
Department stores usually have a small section of maternity clothes and there is the company Destination Maternity has its chains, Motherhood Maternity and it's higher-end line, a Pea in the Pod with stores locally in the King of Prussia Mall and the Springfield Mall.
I found Target had a nice selection of maternity clothes, both in its stores (Malvern, Plymouth Meeting, Springfield at the Mall, and Springfield at 857 Baltimore Pike) and on its website.
Beyond that, I found some things at consignment sales for kids clothes and I went online.

I finally found the Gap Maternity section in the Exton mall about a week before my due date! It is in the back of the baby Gap store...they seemed to have a pretty nice selection and the hand-me-down maternity Gap stuff I got was really nice. Old Navy also has a hidden maternity section in the back of the baby clothes area. I really liked Butterflies and Blossoms in West Chester (consignment) - good selection, great prices - I even found a brand new pair of pants there once. I hated Motherhood Maternity - so expensive, captive audience, etc...but I love(d) their jeans and I did get a number of shirts and pants from there...Macy's carries Motherhood stuff, so depending on their sales, you can get the same stuff cheaper at Macy's. I was always disappointed in Target's maternity selection...

A great website for maternity clothing is http://www.everythingmaternal.com. They have a maternity store locator that tells you where you can buy maternity clothes in your area. When I put in 19064 I got a ton of results such as Kohl's, Target, Kid to Kid, Boscovs, Ross, JCPenney, Worn Yesterday and a bunch more.

I loved http://www.seraphinematernity.com when I was pregnant. Some of the items are a little pricey but I can still wear them now and they look great so it was definitely an investmeant.

Identity Thief
Florida resident Diana (Melissa McCarthy) has a luxurious lifestyle as the queen of retail, buying whatever strikes her fancy -- and it's all free, thanks to Sandy Patterson (Jason Bateman), a guy from Denver whose identity she stole. With just one week to track down Diana before his world implodes, the real Sandy heads south to confront the unapologetic con artist and bring her back to Denver so that he can clear his name and restore his shattered credit rating.
Genre: | Comedy |
Length: | 111 min. |
Rating: | R |
Cast: | Jason Bateman, Melissa McCarthy, Jon Favreau, Amanda Peet, Tip ``T.I.'' Harris, Genesis Rodriguez, Morris Chestnut, John Cho, Robert Patrick, Eric Stonestreet, Jonathan Banks, Mary-Charles Jones, Maggie Elizabeth Jones |
Directed by: | Seth Gordon |
Produced by: | Scott Stuber, Jason Bateman, Pamela Abdy |
Official Site: | http://www.identitythiefmovie.com/ |
By Michael Phillips
Tribune Newspapers Critic
1 1/2 stars
Debilitatingly witless, "Identity Thief" strands Melissa McCarthy and Jason Bateman on the shoulder of its own road-trip premise, an artificial construct reminiscent of "Due Date." Remember "Due Date," that sour thing with Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis? Neither do Downey and Galifianakis.
The screenwriter of "Identity Thief," Craig Mazin, gave us "The Hangover Part II." All these pictures belong to the same realm of exhausted, mean-spirited comedy, pushing casually sadistic mayhem in the guise of slapstick, destined to make millions on the backs of its actors. You can't really talk about any of these pictures in terms of their comic machinery because, at heart, they're barely comedies. They're situations in search of comedy.
All McCarthy has to do is show up, and the audience likes her, even when the audience is supposed to hate her, or when "Identity Thief" treats her character -- a brazen Florida con woman living large on the Visas of others -- like a feral, subhuman pathos dispenser.
When Denver accounts representative Sandy Patterson, played by Bateman, discovers his identity has been purloined and his credit cards are maxed out, trashing his good name, his employer (John Cho) declares him a bad risk for their startup company. Sandy is given one week to retrieve the con woman; bring her to Denver, all the while being tailed by drug dealers and a murderous bounty hunter; and turn her over to the police, thereby clearing up the mess the script tries so hard to establish gracefully.
We're meant to see Diana, McCarthy's character, as a funny/sad victim of circumstance, whose suburban Orlando home is stuffed with ill-gotten blenders and makeup, with a Jet Ski in the front yard. Sandy, her temperamental opposite, is presented as a milquetoast family man (Amanda Peet plays his blandly defined wife, whom we know only as someone who takes Xanax) whose backbone emerges, battered but for the better, during his treacherous road trip with Diana.
Bateman's a seriously skillful actor. But with inferior material, his fallback line reading becomes the sardonic, too-cool-for-the-room underreaction, which isn't the same thing as "milquetoast." He has the air of a cynical but bored winner, a man fighting his own irritation with everyone around him. That's not quite right for the audience-identification figure at the center of "Identity Thief."
As in "Planes, Trains and Automobiles," the adversary we think we know at the outset (John Candy there, McCarthy here) is revealed to be something different and heartbreaking by the end. How a movie gets from A to Z is the question. "Identity Thief" paints Florida as a snake-infested (literally; there's a scene with a snake crawling up Bateman's pants) hotbed of prejudice and racism, and American screen comedy as little more than people shooting other people in the cheek or the foot, or someone getting smashed in the face with a guitar.
Director Seth Gordon made "Horrible Bosses," which was actually cruder than this movie though quite funny and nicely plotted. This time, Gordon is lost, and his style of shooting -- telescopic close-ups, which never give us enough space to appreciate the performers -- feels wrong for comedy. By the time McCarthy punches somebody in the throat for the fifth time, and the inevitable Taser sight gag gets recycled, "Identity Thief" has challenged the best abilities of everybody on-screen, including Eric Stonestreet, Cam on "Modern Family," as a barfly on the make. Crud has a way of doing that.
MPAA rating: R (for sexual content and language).
Running time: 1:51.
Cast: Jason Bateman (Sandy Patterson); Melissa McCarthy (Diana); Amanda Peet (Trish); John Cho (Daniel Casey).
Credits: Directed by Seth Gordon; written by Craig Mazin, Jerry Eeten and Steve Conrad; produced by Bateman, Pamela Abdy, Peter Morgan and Scott Stuber. A Universal Pictures release.

Comments about Quill Brand� Pen Style Highlighters; Chisel Point, Assorted Colors, 6 per Pack:
These highlighters are some of the best out there, with the exception that you cannot highlight actual words with the blue or the purple highlighters as they are very dark ink. They are good for underlining, however, and still a good product at a good price. The other 3 colors are fine to highlight words as you can read the print through them.

Everyone knows how intimidating a wolf can be especially when they arrive in packs. The Red Wolves pack will not stand a chance when they meet the Martinsville Mustangs at Hooker Field. We can definitely say the Red Wolves have heart but heart won't spare them the agony of defeat. The Mustangs show up with one common objective, obtaining victory.
Mustang baseball is packed with excitement. You'll be on the edge of your seat wondering will the runner make it to first base, or if the batter will hit a homerun. The part of the game that really causes blood pressure to rise is when the bases are loaded and your team needs one run to win and already has two outs.
You do not want to miss being in the stands full of screaming and jumping fans enjoying a hotdog and having a good ole time. Meanwhile, Marty the Mascot does his thing keeping the excitement raised to the highest level.
