Perfect for work!
"These shoes have a low heel, but still look great with dress pants and skirts! They are much more comfy than most heels. Love the textured look and the color is perfect! I found them to be slightly long and wide, but I have a really narrow foot so it may just be me! The inside has a cushion bottom to help with those long work days!"

Pretty good
"Overall, I'm satisfied with this shoe. They are extremely comfortable for the height and have nice sole cushioning. As with any shoe a little "breaking in" is needed, so there are some spots where they are a bit stiff and rub on my foot. Otherwise, they are cute and comfy!"

Local hauler requests hefty increase in garbage rates
local garbage hauler has applied to the state for a 13 percent
increase after ten years of static rates.
The rates are set by cost- accounting. The cost-causer has to pay the way, said Norman Nichols, the consultant hired by Blaine Bay Refuse to prepare the rate case submitted to the Washington Utility and Transportation Commission (WUTC) on August 15. Its gotten way out of line over the years and were trying to straighten it out, he told Blaine city council at their August 26 meeting.
Nichols said the last time garbage rates went up in Blaine was in 1993. Local owner Gilbert Johnson sold the company to Recycling and Disposal Services (RDS) of Fern-dale several years ago and that company started looking at the rate structure and hired Nichols. When RDS took over, neither they nor the previous owner really knew the regulations. I found so many things that werent in line with the regulations. Gil (Johnson) was giving away services when he shouldnt have, which meant someone was paying too much somewhere else. Weve spent the last few years straightening things out so its fair to everyone.
Nichols explained that the 12.7 percent increase was not across the board, as the new rate structure would be ironing out inequities in how different classes of customers are charged. However, most customers could expect a ten to 13 percent hike to catch up with a decade of rising costs to the company and static revenues. He also pointed out the WUTC would come up with the final numbers. While 12.7 percent is what were asking for, it may not be what we get, he said. He also added the company was applying to bill every three months instead of every two.
Council member Ken Ely wondered how often a garbage company would normally ask for a rate increase. A 12 percent increase after ten years seems pretty small. Whats our expectation for the future? he asked.
As the economy goes, so go the rates, Nichols said. If the economy stays about the way it is you could go for another five years without seeing another rate case.
Nichols said the garbage company was asking for the rate increase to be effective October 1, when certain new wage and tax hikes hit their books.
City council did not take a position on the rate increase but city manager Gary Tomsic suggested that any citizens with concerns should submit them to the utilities commission (WUTC) for their consideration during the rate review.

A Faithful Partner
In "Probable Cause," substantial evidence surfaces pointing to Castle as a murderer. Even in the bleakest moment, though, Beckett still believes in him. Good thing because, in their last conversation before officers cart him away, Castle is able to clue Beckett in on where to find him later: the first place she ever handcuffed him--the New York Public Library.

There were many choices. They even gave me a Brown-bag Breakfast when I had to leave quickly one morning.

Mediocre 4.0
Location, price. The bed sheets were clean and the beds comfortable. The towels were clean. The room and hallway were very quiet. The room appeared clean but old. There were not many lodgers.
The air conditioner and cold water faucet in our room were repaired successfully during an overnight stay. The TV picture was awful on all channels and the maintenance man was unable to improve it. Our bathroom smelled mildly of dingy rinse water.The outside appearance looked fresh but the inside lobby, the hallways,and the room looked decades old. There was plenty of parking. The breakfast options were adequate. For this stay I preferred not to pay 80-100% more $. My son and I were on a college hunting trip. Overall for the price, acceptable, and I am glad we had this option.

A good, budget-friendly place to stay for University activities. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Good variety and quality at the free breakfast. Place is only a couple of minutes away from the University but is just far enough from the core of downtown to not be bothered by nightlife. It is fairly close to the rail line, but we were not disturbed at night. Nothing fancy here, but a good, honest, workaday place to get out of the weather.

My Year of Reading Diversely →
Librarian and admitted "white cisgendered dude" Nicholas Schiller has a request:
Disclaimer: this is not my idea, it is not a new idea. I take no credit for this idea, but I think it is a good one and I'd like to invite others to join me. In 2013 I'm setting myself the goal of reading 50 works by writers of color and other creators who have a cultural perspective different than my own. I think I have a lot to learn and this is a great way to start to fill in some gaps. I'd love it if other librarians and friends joined in. If you don't share my need for an influx of new perspectives, will you share reading suggestions from your experience on great work that has been overlooked?
Read his post for a full explanation of why he feels the need to expand his understanding, and chime in with your suggestions for his reading list.
My Year of Reading Diversely | Nicholas Schiller, information. games.
I'd love to see this list. Game changers for me include The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven by Sherman Alexie and probably anything I've read by Toni Morrison.

A Soul of Snow Interview: Ed Koren, The New Yorker Magazine
We talked to Ed Koren the noted cartoonist for the New Yorker Magazine about his experiences in the Vermont woods.
What do you remember about your first time Nordic skiing?
I obviously liked it because it was much more freewheeling and it was a whole different part of Vermont that I could access. That was a kind of pleasure, an unexpected joy that you could be off on skis in the middle of the winter. For me, it was just a wonderful freedom that sort of presented itself.
Why have you continued to ski?
Because I love it. I'm passionately addicted to it. I go out every day in the winter. I have my trails around here. I can range across the whole landscape and it's just a wonderful part of the day. There's a reflection and a thinking about human life that comes along when trucking through the woods.
Is skiing an escape from your studio?
I wouldn't think of it as an escape; it's more positive than that. It's really an important part of my life – to be out in this winter world. Also for an artist, the world of the woods and fields and winter is just a delight, an endless discovery of things to observe. So no, it's not an escape at all. It's almost a nourishment. If it wasn't so transcendently wonderful, I wouldn't do it.See All Nordic Articles

La Jolla is a wealthy seaside resort that sits on the west coast of southern California. The affluent nature of the area means a range of top quality holiday rental accommodation is available, ideal for those looking to spoil themselves and make the most of their holiday time. Despite its popularity with tourists La Jolla retains its small-town USA feel, and offers a friendly base from which to visit the many attractions of the San Diego area.
Many visitors head to La Jolla with money to spend, and a popular place to spend it is Prospect Street in the town centre. Here you will find top-quality shopping, with a number of boutique clothing and jewellery stores selling high-end merchandise. On the same street are many gourmet food stores and fine restaurants, meaning Prospect Street is ideal for a full day and night of extravagance and luxury.
Heading outside of the town centre, a short journey takes you to the coastline along the Pacific Ocean. This is a beautiful area of rugged cliffs, sandy coves and unspoilt scenery that offers great daytime activities and sunset walks. Top spots along the coast include La Jolla Cove – which offers excellent swimming and snorkelling, and Windansea Beach – a historic surfing area. The coastline is defined by Mount Soledad – 822ft hill which is marked by a 43ft tall cross.
The main cultural landmark in La Jolla is the Museum of Contemporary Art of San Diego, which was founded in 1941 and exhibits art from the last 50 years. Golfers will also love La Jolla, as it is the home of the Torrey Pines Golf Course, home of the famous Buick Invitational PGA tournament every February.
La Jolla is just a twenty minute journey from of San Diego, and this diverse city has many attractions for visitors of all ages. These include the famous San Diego Zoo, many professional sports teams, top dining and nightlife options, great shopping and Sea World Wild Animal Park, with much more to see and do depending on your interests.
The Mediterranean to semi-arid climate of San Diego country means visitors to La Jolla can expect warm to hot temperatures all year round. August and September are the hottest and busiest months in which to visit, but even the coldest months of December and January have an average temperature of nearly 20C.
San Diego International Airport (SAN) is just 15 miles from La Jolla, an easy drive that will take little more than 20 minutes upon arrival. Several airlines offer flights to this airport from London, so shop around and book in advance for the best bargains. Car hire is freely available in the airport.

EDITOR'S NOTE: As cotton prices continue to climb to historically high levels, producers are trying to make the best possible planting and marketing decisions in 2011. In the following pages, four producers – Bob McLendon (Georgia), Kenneth Hood (Mississippi), Bill Lovelady (Texas) and Dennis Palmer (Arizona) – offer their thoughts on the current environment for cotton.
This is my 37th year in farming, and I don't think I have seen anything quite like this. Last year was the most profitable season I've ever had, and I expect another excellent year in 2011 because of our ability to irrigate in Georgia and our farm's ability to make a good crop.
Of course, a lot of things can happen before we harvest a crop and sell our cotton, corn and peanuts.
Naturally, I am thankful that I have lived to see these better cotton prices. However, I have sense enough to know that they probably won't last. I want to believe they will last longer than we think. We have had high prices before, but this time we have real demand for cotton that we haven't had in the past.
I think the cheap dollar and some other factors are also causing this price increase. In my view, cotton has a supply problem right now, and I am hoping this trend will last for more than one year.
This is new territory. It's something we've never seen, and it's hard to prepare. I don't guess any of us were prepared for it because, if we had, we wouldn't have sold our cotton last year at 77 cents. As I speak here in mid-February, the price is close to $2.
"We have had high prices before, but this time we have real demand for cotton that we haven't had in the past."
Keep in mind that this price could go down as
fast it went up. For example, if the government
changed its policy on the blender's credit for
corn and the ethanol market, that would really
knock the corn market down in a hurry.
If the hedge funds and speculators and other type investors wanted to take their money out of the commodities, we would take a real licking. You don't know what those folks are going to do. Think about it. We're talking about $500 billion tied up in the commodity market.
We all remember what happened in March of 2008 when we had the big runup in prices. Still, having said that, I don't think I've ever seen anything like this price hike for cotton.
We haven't seen these kinds of cotton prices since the Civil War. Back then, it was the demand in Europe that ran up the price. I'd say this is pretty historic no matter what kind of measuring stick you're using.
What are the right decisions for a farmer?
Well, if you're hedging, it's very dangerous because it takes so much money, and the market fluctuates so much. I think cash contracts are about the only realistic way to go for a farmer as he pursues these price contracts. I would also tell folks to put some of their money back because these good times may not last, and you'll need a nest egg.
I contract my crops, and I do some hedging. I sold most of my cotton last year, but I am also a member of Staplcotn's seasonal pool. I called some cotton and sold it for a little better than 77 cents. That was a good price at the time. In the seasonal pool, Staplcotn will do better than I did.
I hope these good prices will continue at this level. I really am hoping for that, but, as I said before, I don't really expect it to last too long. Who knows? Maybe I'll be surprised.
One thing I know for sure. With this kind of price environment, cotton is picking up acreage every day. I am looking for Georgia to pick up 80,000 additional acres and maybe a six percent increase.
At these current prices, cotton is more profitable than corn even if corn yields 200 bushels at $6.50.
A farmer needs to know which crop is most profitable and respond accordingly. That may sound like a simple answer to a complicated situation, but that's what it comes down to in the final analysis.
Bob McLendon is a cotton, corn and peanut producer in Leary, Ga. This is his 37th crop season.

click image to zoom Studio Wish Salon in Twinsburg, Ohio, is among a growing number of salons that have changed their operating hours to accommodate the needs of working clients who prefer appointments in the early evenings or on Saturdays. The owner, Rowena Yeager, learned of the model from Steve and Terri Cowan, founders of Professional Salon Concepts (PSC), who coined the concept "prime time hours." A wholesale product distributor, PSC provides technical and business education to salons in the Midwest to help them stay pro table. One of their key strategies is teaching salons how to shift their business hours to prime time–those hours that represent the busiest time of the day, or what would be the most pro table for a salon. With 72 million (or 52 percent of) women over age 16 in the workforce, it's no surprise that during the work week these hours tend to fall in the late afternoon and early evening, from roughly 3 p.m. to 8 p.m.
Too many salons open at 9 a.m., but then still try to cover prime time, late-night hours. By extending their operating hours to a 12-hour day every day, they increase labor costs and create other undesirable consequences, says Terri Cowan. When she asks these owners when they have time to develop their staff, she often hears, "I don't. I can't finnd time to even gather them for a meeting." Tracey Stokes, owner of Navii Salon & Spa, a full-service day spa in northwest Indiana, used a two-day remodeling closure as an opportunity to make the switch to new prime time hours. She had tried many schedules over the years, but staff turnover, the recession and staffing expenses led her to make a change. "We sat down with our software program and started to run some reports to map the times that were the most pro table," Stokes says. Already closed on Sunday, "I chose to close on Mondays because that wasn't a very productive day for us, and extend the hours on Wednesday and Thursday from 10 to 10. We split shifts on those days, so nobody works a whole day." Part of the decision stemmed from the fact that Navii has about 3,000 square feet of hair salon space. "If it's not busy, it doesn't look fun. It can throw off kind of a bad message," notes Stokes. The change did not come without compromise from her staff. "You get caught up with trying to make every employee happy. Someone will say, 'I want to come in for this client, or I want to stay late for this, or I don't want to work this hour.' But it was a group decision, it was a business decision, and it's worked really well for us."

Recovering addicts who failed to take steps to deal with the stress in their lives were more susceptible to craving — a major predictor of relapse — according to researchers at Penn State University.
Sify News reported June 24 that researchers analyzed recovery diaries kept by college students in recovery and found that those who avoided problems in their lives rather than dealing with them were more likely to experience craving when they experienced stress or negative moods.
"When faced with stress, addicts who have more adaptive coping skills appear to have a better chance of staying in recovery," said researcher H. Harrington Cleveland.
The study appears in the journal Addictive Behaviors.

Botsford News Release
Farmington Hills, Mich. (March 22, 2013)---As part of the 2013 capital budget, Botsford Hospital's Board of Directors approved a $7.5 million Facility Refresh Plan.
"Our main goal is to give the hospital a warm and inviting, as well as sleek and contemporary, feel that would be conducive to healing," says James Smith, Botsford Hospital's vice president of strategy and business development. "We are building both functional and aesthetic improvements into the Facility Refresh Plan."
Other goals include improving navigation, keeping Botsford competitive with other area hospitals, and supporting the hospital's uncompromising commitment to excellence and quality in the delivery of personal and compassionate health care.
Smith says that more than 90,000 square feet of space---roughly equivalent to two football fields---is targeted for updates as part of the first phase of the hospital's Master Facility Plan.
He adds, "This will serve to strengthen the hospital and refresh our facility, some of which dates to 1965."
Public areas where patients and visitors circulate, patient rooms, and nurse's stations are the plan's main focus. The new wayfinding system will feature updated signs and material finishes, guiding people more easily to their destinations in the hospital.
Botsford's clinical staff will be providing input about the flow and functionality of the design for patient rooms.
The construction bidding process is ongoing through mid-June. Material procurement then commences. By early July, the contractors will begin going full speed, and the Facility Refresh Plan should be complete within approximately 24 months from then. Affected areas will be taken out of service on a scheduled basis through October 2015.
Botsford has partnered with two outside firms for the Facility Refresh Project. Plante Moran CRESA of Southfield has worked on project feasibility and provided benchmarking and cost analysis. Design work is being performed by HKS Architects, PC, of Northville.
Botsford Hospital is a multi-specialty 330 bed hospital and verified trauma center located in Farmington Hills, Michigan. The campus also houses an imaging center and a comprehensive care cancer center. Botsford Hospital is also home to an extensive medical education program and is part of Michigan State University's statewide campus system. Botsford Hospital each year cares for approximately 16,000 inpatients and more than 60,000 emergency and trauma patients with a team of 2,500 employees, 300 volunteers and more than 600 physicians. A not-for-profit hospital, Botsford provided almost $10.5 million in community benefit during its 2011 fiscal year.

Ethics Code
Ethics Code (April 2014 draft)
The document below is our code of ethics, a kind of collectively edited compass that helps us orient, define and do our work as a group and network. This is a document that will always be in draft form, since our considerations on ethics evolve with time and different experiences. This is not law but rather constitutes an attempt at instituting our practice/s with view to consistency, and generate a space for reflection on our collective processes.
- We are people working in the education and cultural sectors in solidarity with other groups working on issues of precarity.
- We want to develop a differentiated approach to (self-)'organising' that neither consists in 'organising others' nor in just reflecting on ourselves.
- We aim to balance organising work on the ground (eg. campaigns, demonstrations, etc.), administration and the 'representational' (eg. writing texts, giving talks, workshops, etc.). These are not necessarily separate activities, but inter-connect.
- We use critical analysis to invent resistant practices to neoliberal capitalism and the different ways in which it produces precarity.
- We want to develop a differentiated approach to (self-)'organising' that neither consists in 'organising others' nor in just reflecting on ourselves.
- We want to bring new people into the group and campaigns when appropriate.
- We want to be in solidarity and collaboration with other groups.
- We make use of creative and analytic training to engage in direct action and campaigns towards concrete change.
- We engage in consciousness-raising (but not in circumstances in which we know that everyone is already conscious but inactive).
- We want to strike a balance between organising work on the ground (eg. campaigns, demonstrations, etc.), administration and the 'representational' (eg. writing texts, giving talks, workshops, etc.) and organising aspects of our work – whilst recognising that they are not necessarily separate activities, but inter-connect.
- We would like to ensure that roles do not get fixed and that work is recognized and valued within the group.
- We operate both as a group and a network, and try to find different modalities of participation between these.
Our main organisational platforms
· 1. Mailing Lists The general mailing list is conceived as a space of communicating across the network, also with people who are not at our meetings regularly. It's for circulating invitations to events and ours as well as other meetings and sharing info about on going campaigns. There is also an internal mailing list for those who regularly attend meetings. There are also lists for administration and working groups. We regularly review the mailing list to be sure it's up to date.
· 2. We have an online platform, which we use as a working space for PWB as a group of groups. Here we discuss and work internally. (Not publicly accessible.)
· 3. Meetings
· //// Meeting protocol: We conduct meetings every fortnight and work by rough consensus. At each meeting we rotate roles including: the chair, the scribe, the timekeeper, the affect thermometer. Points are carried from one meeting to another via the agenda. We encourage people to send apologies and confirm attendance at meetings. Agenda points are collected using the template prior to meetings. We often enjoy food during our meetings: sometimes we bring snacks and other times, we make dinner together.
· //// Meeting routine: Working groups meet on an ad hoc basic. Our open meetings happen monthly and are always hosted by at least two members of PWB. Open meetings may be general or working-group focused.
· Decisions
Decisions are made in face-to-face meetings (not on email). They are made by discussion in relation to our aims, commitments and the conditions of work to which we have agreed (see below). This is especially important in the case of invitations to write or participate in events. This will sometimes mean explaining to those who invite us, that we require time to deliberate. If this time is not given, we will have to say 'no'. Pending decisions on invitations should be announced on email prior to our fortnightly meetings. Decisions are made by those who attend and require a quorum of four. Decisions taken at working group meetings are fed back to general meetings for the group's wider consideration.
Skill Sharing
· We value the educational possibilities of our work in direct action and campaigning and whenever possible we will take the opportunity to teach and learn from each other. We want to ensure that roles do not become fixed and that people are able to develop new skills.
Working Groups
· Our work is organised through working groups, some are ongoing and others are ad hoc. They include: campaigns, education, working conditions, ethics, etc. Working groups communicate via separate email lists. If someone expresses interest in a working group, they are included in its communications, even if they don't always join meetings. Working groups try to keep each other updated of important meetings.
· Solidarity and Collaborations with other Groups or Institutions
· When we engage in a collaboration or solidarity campaign with others, we make sure there is at least two people in the PWB who are willing to form a delegation that takes this on. Communications work via email between people wanting to be part of the delegation. In engaging with other groups, we interact with them as a collective, not just as individuals.
· Administrative tasks, such as maintaining blogs, email lists, bank accounts will be undertaken on rotation and discussed at general meetings. We table outstanding tasks from meeting to meeting. If we find there is excessive work to catch up on, we dedicate the following working session to this, and take on no more new tasks/work until some of the old tasks are done. By acknowledging our capacity, we aim to work effectively and conscientiously.
· Our work is produced by at least two people and signed and presented collectively. This means we don't sign with individual names, or appear as individuals on behalf of the group.
· The money we earn as a collective goes into our shared bank account (there are there treasurers/signatories). We put our money into campaigns and direct action (printing, props, …) as well as supporting the Common House, where we regularly meet. Our payment system aims to recognise that our financial position varies. We use a sliding scale to determine what members are paid. This is negotiated amongst those working on the project, discussed in meetings and made transparent through invoicing that is accessible to the group. A portion of fees for PWB labour is returned to the collective. This aims to balance the needs and sustainability of both individuals and the group. We also value our work by paying for occasional meals to enjoy each other's company.
Tools (April 2012 Draft)
We want to strike a balance between inventing new tools and using the ones we have already developed. We will archive the tools that we use in re-usable formats i.e. toolkits to share with others. Tools/infos such as:
- The counterguide to free labour (eg. sample contracts, fake references, letters to intern employers, … )
- Direct Action/Agit Prop ideas
- Pre-protest organising and workshops: building a carrot block
- Ethics code
- Pedagogical tools for workshops
- Info box at the end of publications
- Time/work mapping
- Alternative curriculum
- How to run an internship fair
- How to make a Peoples Tribunal
- Sexy statistics
The below criteria is to help deal with invitations and opportunities. It is not meant to be bureaucratic but made so that we do not waste our time, creative power, resources or focus. It can be used as a checklist.
We say yes when:
- There are at least two members willing and interested in working on it and it is realistic for them to do so.
- The opportunity does not take significant time away from our goals for that period
- When accepting an invite, we not only require 2 or more people to drive the work but we also evaluate how long this process will last, how much time and resources it will involve, and if other PWBers will have to come in at a later stage.
- There is an opportunity for action/organization in relation to one of our campaigns or the issue of precarity
- There is a pedagogical opportunity to raise awareness: in this case we are more careful about accepting. If invited to give a talk or workshop in an institution, we make sure to 1.)get fair pay 2.)have a trusting connection with someone in the institution who can carry the work around precarity forward there: we do the groundbreaking, opening conversations so others can continue.
- There is something new for us to learn
- Gives opportunity for older and newer members of the group to work together
- There is a fee for more than one person (unless a grassroots political meeting)
- Travel expenses are covered for more than one person (unless a grassroots political meeting)
- The opportunity supports a copyleft or non-proprietary circulation of work
- The group reaches rough consensus on the value of the opportunity.
- The one delivering the invitation is willing to publish a box containing the basic working conditions that went into the project. Or in the case of an event: we present this information live every time.
We say no when:
- The opportunity is for profit and/or there is public funding involved and there is no fee.
- The opportunity is for profit and/or there is public funding involved and there is no travel covered.
- The opportunity is for profit and/or there is public funding and does not support participation of at least two group members.
- If these requirements are not fulfilled we will explain why.

Can one teach young people to be moral? Is morality something that must be taught in the home? Is it innate?
Currently I am working on a professional development platform focused on teaching college students ethics and morality. Young people seem to be incredibly disengaged from others, have little sense of what it means to be moral, gracious or ethical and don't care. How can we teach morality or is it something that is innate?

Jan 28 2013: Who cares whether or not it is inate if you can teach it. Here's how. 1) Tell your pupil how important it is that there is altruism in the world, talking about ghandi or however you want to inspire this do-good feeling. 2) Drop a bit of money (enough to be meaningful) in a place where you know where your pupil will find it. 3) If the pupil finds it and gives it to you, give them some and emphasize how good of a person they are for giving the money back. Even give them some of it and also donate some of the money on their behalf to some cause to which they might be sympathetic. Let them see how it helps them and others. If they keep the money, catch them and make them feel extremely guilty (don't wuss out) verbally. Regardless, you are trading incentives/reinforcers for a learning opportunity. I would say that often people are verbally reminded of morals, but don't get many chances to practice. I say give them a few practice opportunities and show them how good it feels to help people and do good. No disrespect to those that want to talk about the philosophy of this, but regardless, if you can teach it, teach it. If you want more, talk to a behavior analyst (yes, they exist, are good, and are expensive).
