Fast National ratings for Monday, Jan. 7, 2013The premiere of "The Bachelor" helped ABC score a win in total viewers Monday night, but the premiere was off a little from its debut last year. NBC's new drama "Deception" also opened pretty quietly -- it led the 10 o'clock hour among adults 18-49, but only with a 2.0 rating. "The Biggest Loser" fell from its Sunday premiere but was still the night's top show in the 18-49 demographic -- on the broadcast networks, anyway. The BCS title game on ESPN will be the night's top show overall.ABC drew 7.4 million viewers and a 5.0 rating/7 share in households in primetime. NBC (6.1 million, 3.9/6) came in second, beating out CBS (5.4 million, 3.7/5). FOX took fourth with 3.8 million viewers and a 2.4/3. The CW (937,000, 0.6/1) trailed.NBC scored a narrow win among adults 18-49 with a 2.2 rating, edging ABC's 2.1. CBS came in third... http://blog.zap2it.com/frominsidethebox/2013/01/tv-ratings-the-bachelor-and-deception-open-quietly-on-bcs-monday.html
Actress Meagan Good is doing a whole lot better than her last name suggests. The actress talks about her starring role in "Deception"--and her hope to someday star in a Whitney Houston biopic. http://blogs.wsj.com/speakeasy/2013/01/07/deception-star-meagan-good-is-doing-great/?mod=WSJBlog
All families are complicated, and coming off of the holidays, few would disagree. But few families are quite as complicated as the Bowerses.The Bowerses are the family of NBC's drama "Deception," premiering Monday, Jan. 7. The family has amassed the sort of obscene wealth that usually comes at others' expense. This features people behaving really badly and expecting to get away with it because they are so rich.The pilot is crowded as it tries to lay the foundations for many stories, but stick with it. By the second episode, the pace improves, and the characters are more nuanced, and by the third, it becomes compelling.Set in New York and Connecticut, the show opens with the death of the family's adult daughter. It was initially considered a drug overdose, but Vivian was clearly beaten. Figuring out who did it sets up the series.The FBI recruits a police officer, Joanna Locasto (Meagan Good, "Californication"), to go under... http://blog.zap2it.com/frominsidethebox/2013/01/deception-nbcs-new-drama-has-dirty-sexy-moneyed-secrets.html

"Deception" is the new midseason drama premiering on NBC. It chronicles Joanna Locasto (Meagan Good), a cop who returns to the family where she grew up as the daughter of their maid in order to now investigate the murder of daughter Vivian, Joanna's childhood friend."I'm always walking that thin line of actually having a relationship and growing up in those walls and not having seen them for 17 years with actually going back and being a cop," says Good on "Today.""Today" host Willie Geist points out that perhaps the family is using her because of that relationship -- "They can pull some things on you, you might trust them in a way you shouldn't."Good agrees that that is part of it. "It's a little bit of both. They're also using me for healing, too," says Good. "It's very comforting for [Vivian's father] Robert to have me there because I was a childhood friend."Creatively, Good says... http://blog.zap2it.com/frominsidethebox/2013/01/deception-premiere-meagan-good-says-it-has-something-for-everyone.html

Since we have moved to our new house I have slowly been trying to decorate. It has taken me much longer this time, usually I know exactly what I want to do. I've been trying to work on my 2 youngest dotter's rooms and Bella and I finally made it come together this weekend. After rehearsal on Saturday she and I got to work. It took a while to gather all the components but Bella and I were really pleased with the results. So I now present you.....BELLA'S PERFECTLY THRIFTED ROOM.
All components of her room were either bought at thrift stores, estate sales, yard sales or flea markets or trades with wonderful artists.
Okay here is her bed which I think turned out pretty cute. This is a pallet bed. You can find a lot of cute ideas on Pinterest and I have seen a few out there. This is a twin mattress on 2 pallets. My handy hubby cut them to the right size for me. The headboard is a really cool old door that I bought from my friend Cathie. The pillows were made from fabric bought at Fleaology and Beehive Bazaar. The adorable handmade Teddy was a trade I did with a vendor at Beehive Bazaar. She wanted one of my necklaces and I wanted her bear. The afghan was a $2 bargain at Savers (thrift store). The chenille bedspread from the Pasadena City College flea market for $25. The white frame $5 from my friend Cathie, the cool letter B from Fleaology dealer Jeanine for $10. The colored doilies were $2 each from Fleaology dealer Bruce.
Our sweet older dotter, Michelle made this pillow for Bella for Christmas. It sits on this vintage child's chair that I got at Treasures Antique Mall for $10.
This was a recent acquisition from a barn sale I attended with friend. I laid my eyes on it and knew it had to be mine. For $55 I got to take it home. Isn't a hen house the perfect place for her beloved stuffed animals? This is not a girl who loves dolls. It's all about the animals. FYI...most of them have names!
I love old toys and we decided to put some in Bella's room. This cool old dollhouse from the 60's was a yard sale find.
This is a collection of old A Child's Garden of Verses books. They are so sweet and so totally vintage. I snagged them at a Fleaology sale last year. All for $20!
This is a picture of her perfectly shabby dresser bought from my friend Brandon for $40. The books and toys look so cute on top!
Here is an overall picture. A few more things to mention. The cute floral rug was a DI (thrift store) find for $8. The table that the doll house sits on was a $30 Savers (thrift store) find. The cute little metal table was a Fleaology find for $8. The chalkware lamp my friend Cathie dug out of a garage and I bought for $25.
I think the room turned out sweet and charming and Bella loves it. I'm also pretty proud of my thrifty ways! What do you think?
Hope you have a great week!

Silicon wafers with optically specular surfaces formed by chemical polishing
The peak is not at exactly 30° for every sample because it is challenging to place the wafer pieces on the goniometer with better than 1° precision.
Using heavy ion backscattering spectrometry (HIBS) to solve integrated circuit manufacturing problems
After insertion, a wafer is attached to a four-axis in-situ goniometer , allowing the wafer to be positioned for measurement at arbitrary x and y coordinates and for channeling of the analysis beam to reduce multiple scattering background from silicon.

The Ghost of the MTA's 'Two Sets of Books'
Thursday, March 05, 2009
The MTA just can't seem to live down the "two sets of books" scandal that erupted six years ago. Democrats in the state Senate keep dropping that line in interviews, as in, "You really can't trust guys who keep two sets of books, can you?" That's their reason why they won't support the Ravitch plan.
But were there really two sets of books?
The scandal started in April 2003, when then-state Comptroller Alan Hevesi (who has since succumbed to his own scandal), charged that the MTA was intentionally overestimating its budget deficit in order to justify a 50-cent subway fare hike. He said he only discovered where the MTA was stashing its money after subpoenaing the second set of books.
The MTA said the second set of books it provided was really just a 250-page explanation showing how the authority used a current surplus to pay down debt, or moved it to subsequent years, because they foresaw deficits in the future.

The Silver Touch for the Fulton Transit Hub
Friday, February 06, 2009
Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver is taking credit for getting the MTA to devote half a billion dollars of federal stimulus money to the Fulton Street Transit Center. Last week, he told reporters he complained to the governor's office when the transit hub, which is in Silver's lower Manhattan district, did not appear on the first list of projects that were being considered as potential recipients of the funds. The allocation of the federal money to the hub, which is wildly over budget, then grew to $201 million and now stands at $497 million.

Unite is an intriguing step forward for Opera, bringing an entirely new sub-set of powers to a platform that's already known for its built-in email client and FTP package. While some may question why you'd use a browser-to-browser connection to share pictures, videos, documents, or chat in the age of ubiquitous web services that do the same or similar things, Opera's always been about doing things a bit differently. And if you want a better sense of security, it's best to let your own system do the sharing, rather than another firm's servers.

Pre-race routine: Stayed at a new hotel. Country Inn and Suites instead of AmericInn. Not much difference, can't remember why I switched. We went to Vanelli's on Sat night. I did not sleep well which is rare for me now the night before a race. We also parked just past the park on the east side instead of the west side. We got a lot closer. Event warmup: My transition spot was right on the edge by the parking lot so Barb could be right there. Chisago has assigned spots based on when you register and then they do waves of 100. I was 225 so wave 3. I was on the end of the rack which is usually good but it was a high traffic area so not so good. Fortunately the 3 people next to me did not show up so I could slide down and had plenty of room. I got a short bike, run and swim in and ready to go. Swim
Comments: My 2013 poor swim outings continue. I haven't been swimming as much as I should, especially with this HIM and USAT Nationals in 2 weeks. I have never been fast but my endurance was great last year when training for my IM. What would you do differently?: More swim training Transition 1
Comments: 2nd in AG +5 sec from fastest. Bike
Comments: I played cat & mouse with a guy early and then a gal late. I thought the wind was supposed to be out of the NW but I got a little confused on the course. It wasn't much but was noticeable at times. I tried to work hard and not let my HR get too high, aiming for 145 avg based on last year's 2 HIM and 1 IM races, so at 142 avg I was good. What would you do differently?: Course was longer by a mile, Jerry even said something at the awards. Transition 2
Comments: 1st in AG -4 sec from guy who was faster than me in T1. We were the fastest by far. I picked up 1:13 on the 1st place guy combined. What would you do differently?: Good T2 Run
Comments: Last 2 years I've had cramping issues. My right hamstring was tight the whole way but never caused any real issues. I had some discomfort in my feet, right foot early, left foot late. I wore my Asics race shoes which I did not wear last year for my IM and marathon. I did wear compression socks which I also wore at IM and marathon. Maybe for longer than Oly I should wear my Brooks training shoes. I was getting sore, especially in both quads at the end. Less run training time than in past and I felt it. I felt like taking a walk break a couple of times but one of my goals was to not have to walk due to cramps and I certainly didn't want to walk just because I was tired and a little sore. Weather was much better than last 2 years which were both really hot. This was a big factor in the non-cramp run. What would you do differently?: This was probably the least trained I've been for a HIM. I'm feeling it the day after the race. I think I've decided not to do a race longer than Oly next year. I feel I need a break from the longer distances, I don't feel as motivated to put in the training time. Post race
Warm down: I stood in line for 10-15 for a massage. Just my legs but I think it helped, although I' don't remember being this sore a day after the race. . What limited your ability to perform faster: Training. Event comments: This is my 4th Chisago HIM and also one Chisago sprint in my knee recovery year. It's a big race but well organized. Photos are T1, T2, T2, start of run and end of run. I was 3:04 faster than last year, even with the extra mile on the bike. I was slower on swim and bike but made up for it on the run. I won this AG last year but was 2nd this year by 7:19. 1st place guy beat me by 9:15 on the swim. Last updated: 2013-07-29 12:00 AM

Point of View
The majority of The Awakening is written from Edna's point of view. However, there are occasional exceptions, such as Mr. Pontellier's visit to Dr. Mandelet and Madame Ratignolle's conversation in which she warns Robert to leave Edna alone. In these instances, Edna is not present at all, and the point of view switches from character to character. After Mr. Pontellier leaves Dr. Mandelet, for example, readers see the doctor's thoughts with no other observers present. This happens again after Dr. Mandelet leaves the Pontellier mansion and worries that Edna could be involved with another man. Although the book uses a third person perspective throughout, the unseen narrator sometimes refers to ideas that none of the characters are thinking about at that moment. As Edna approaches the water at the end of The Awakening, the narrator clarifies that Edna is not presently thinking about all of the...

In the old days we called them character actors. A great tradition that included John Carradine, Stother Martin and many, many favorites of the Golden Age of Movies and TV. (here's a great site to visit if you love old movies and early TV: http://www.dougmacaulay.com/kingspud/ks_index_gca.html )
It's the best gig in Hollywood, frankly. You don't have to spend all you make keeping up appearances or putting things up your nose and if you get old, grey and fat, you just start working those kinds of parts. - 9:55 AM

Earlier this week I was bitch slapped by a scale at the doctor's office. I thought maybe I put on 7-10 pounds, try more like 15 pounds. It's truly a wonder I can still fit into my jeans. Although a little uncomfortable and tight lately, I can still zip and button them!
To rationalize re-gaining weight I worked VERY hard on losing between 2009 and 2010, I'll have to think of my slow down in running as a sacrifice. Either continue to run at the same level on an inflamed tendon to keep the weight off, and risk permanently jacking up my foot, or reduce my mileage, risk gaining a little weight, recover, and continue running until I'm 100 years old (hey, it's possible).
Of course I've learned there are other activities I can do to stay in shape, but none are as effective or rewarding to me as running has been. Thanks to Jillian Micheals, it's now a habit for me to work in weekly strength training. Strength is truly a runner's ally. This week I did two, 2 mile runs which is the most I've been able to do in a week without a noticeable increase in pain. I will be registering for the Shamrock Shuffle in March on New Year's Day! I plan to start training the first week of February. Eight weeks of training for a 5 mile race had better whip this 15 pounds into shape!

Eating around the holidays
This is the toughest time of the year to try to lose weight. There has been a non-stop conveyor belt of snacks and cookies around the office. Some stuff has been pure crap, tasteless, grocery store cookies, but every once in a while, something fabulous has come along I cannot resist.
The cupcakes were a gift from one of our vendors and they're to die for! I imagined myself inhaling the whole box by myself, but I controlled myself and had only one. The rest, I gave away! Seriously, I have gotten so many boxes of chocolate as gifts, I have to re-gift them. I'm recovering well enough to workout 3 times a week. A combination of running, and the 30 Day Shred. I decided to only weigh myself once a week (Sunday). I made the mistake of weighing myself in the middle of the week, and I was UP three pounds. What the what? I'm hoping its only water weight from all the stress of preparing for the holidays. Yeah, water weight, that's it.

A Holiday Gift Guide by Chicago Blogger Network
Chicago Blogger Network is a collective of Chicago area Bloggers. The organizers put together networking events, and members receive invitations to events around town, with the expectation they'll tweet, Facebook, and blog all about the fun and interesting things going on in Chicagoland. The group is largely fashion bloggers, but there are a few bloggers covering other subjects. They put out a call to the group for holiday gift ideas for their first ever gift guide. My suggestion was The Nike+ GPS Sportwatch. It was gifted to me, so of course I think it's a great gift idea! Since CBN has a lot of folks writing about fashion, I wasn't sure my gift suggestion would get put in, but hooray, it's #31 on the list! The layout of the guide turned out really nice. My suggestion is the only sports related product, but I think it fits in well because it is a pretty fashionable watch in itself.
In other fun news, I'm guest co-hosting an Internet radio show this weekend! The Nappturalite Radio show is all about natural hair. I don't write a lot about hair on this blog, but I contribute for an article about hair on Examiner.com. A co-worker turned me on to the show and it turns out the host follows my Examiner article! I'm really looking forward to participating in the show. You can log on and listen live here, or check back for the on-demand episode.

Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred: Week 4
I've decided I'm happy with my purchase of Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred : ) It's been four weeks since I started incorporating the workout into my return to running program and I'm down 3 pounds. Not a huge weight loss, but I'm very happy with the progress since my goal is to lose 10-15 pounds by mid January. At this rate, I'm losing about a pound per week. I was brave and moved on to level 2 of the workout this morning. WOW, it was intense. But I felt GREAT afterwards. Tendinitis hasn't shot back up drastically. I'm still icing after activity to keep it in check. I did a lot of walking in Vegas, so I was pretty sore earlier in the week, but on Wednesday my foot felt great. So I'm still getting sore with increased activity, but I'm recovering a lot faster. I'll continue to increase my mileage and workout with the DVD this winter. Between the two, my goal is to workout or run 3-4 days a week. I REALLY want to do the Shamrock Shuffle in March. I'm hoping I can continue on training at a slow and steady pace to be able to complete the five mile run.

2011 Rock 'n Roll Half Marathon Las Vegas Recap
Viva Las Vegas! I had a blast in Sin City this weekend attending the Rock 'n Roll Half Marathon. This was my second visit there and my second experience with the Rock 'n Roll series. I had a nearly four hour flight from Chicago, and my sister flew in from California on Friday night. We were both pretty much exhausted after also having to work that day, but we were excited to be there.
Saturday, we took a field trip on the Deuce bus to and from the expo. The expo was super crowded and cramped. This was only a prelude to how the race would end up being, we'll get to that later. At the expo were pretty much the same vendors and gear in Chicago, but I did make one interesting discovery there, Spider Tech. I've been wanting to try out K-tape for the arch of my foot, but the last couple of expos I've attended, the line for free tapings has been way too long. Spider Tech's booth was tucked away in the back, with only a few people waiting. I got my foot taped for plantar fascia and posterior tibial tendon support. I was really excited about the price, a box of 40 for $20.
One of the female employees did the taping, I felt like she just put it on and there was not enough tension to provide any support. She said the more tension, the less effective it would be, but I can't say that I felt a difference at all. By the time we got back to our hotel, the tape was already starting to come off. It could be that the foot is a difficult area for athletic tape to stay put, but sigh, I was less than impressed.
There were several members of the run group planning to race, so Sunday there was a planned meet up before the race. It was so nice meeting other Black women from around the country who are also running obsessed!
After the meet up, we had a few hours to relax before the race. Our hotel was near the start line, so we figured it would be a breeze to walk over there. This is when the real fun began. It was pretty crowded trying to walk between the Luxor and Mandalay Bay. It was difficult to get past the crowd at gear check and out the door into the corrals. Thankfully, we made it to our corral in enough time.
The start of the race was very organized. It started promptly, just as it had in Chicago. There were several corrals ahead of us, so we waited about 30 minutes to start. I lost count of each corral as they were sent on there way, but I think at about corral 25, they just let everyone take off, there was no pause in between. There were 40 corrals in total. So what ensued was a mad mix of runners and walkers starting at the same time. There were runners darting in and out everywhere! It was like people forgot the basic rule of staying to the right and passing on the left.
I registered for the race before my injury, so I did not have time to properly train, but I knew I was still coming for the experience . . . and for the fact that I already paid to register and bought my airfare. I ran the first few miles of the race, then stood on the sidelines to cheer on the runners, then finished the last mile with my sister. When we crossed the finish line, the finish area was so random. The medals were scattered, people were tearing their own space blankets off the roll, there was a ridiculous line to take a finisher photo, and the bananas and snacks were on the other side of that line. We skipped the photo and cut through for some nourishment! From the secure race area, we had to re-enter Mandalay Bay to get back to our hotel. The line was absolutely ridiculous! Worse than trying to get to the start of the race. Probably because nearly 20 corrals were finishing at the same time! The last thing people want to do after running a marathon or half is stand in line. When it was clear we weren't getting anywhere soon, we exited back outside to get some air. We walked a bit and found another less populated entrance to the hotel. I hear we avoided most the craziness. There were apparently several people that passed out in the crowd and EMTs had to be called. When the race sold out at 44,000, RNR raised the capacity. I believe the final count was near 60,000. I think the major issue with this race was raising the cap and not being able to handle it. RNR got a little greedy in Las Vegas this year. They gambled and lost in the opinion of many runners! It's unfortunate because the course is amazing, it's really cool to run at night on the Strip. Hopefully next year RNR will better manage the crowd.
Update: Shortly after I published this post RNR sent out an e-mail to Vegas participants acknowledging the race issues and offering a $10 off code for an RNR event in 2012. At least they recognize there was a problem!

Love this Christmas Ball Wreath technique for any seasonal wreath. Buy the ornaments after Christmas for an even more economical wreath.
Love the initials added to this fall wreath. You can find wood letters at most craft stores.
Here is another feather boa wreath. Just add some googly eyes and you have a spooky welcome. I have seen these in orange and purple too.
If you have the patience to wrap thin twine around a wreath, this is sure a cute one. Check out her website for places to purchase the colored twine.
This wreath uses free supplies of mini pinecones you may have on your property or near by. I know we have plenty of acorns to make a wreath at our house. Just keep it away from the squirrels!
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ONE? Have one to share with group, just leave your link in the comments and I will add it!!

Ok now that the shop space is almost finished I will ask the age old question of first large tools to buy? |

I think I would figure out what tools I was going to buy before I would deal with the dust collection issue. I'm not minimizing the importance of duct collection, but I would want to make sure the dust collection system was adequate for the tools I needed to use. Wouldn't it be a bummer to install a dust collection system, then discover it didn't have enough capacity for the 37" planer you decide to install? -- Gerry -- "I don't plan to ever really grow up ... I'm just going to learn how to act in public!" |

If I had 220v, and would set a shop from the get go, I would not go with anything less than a cyclone knowing what I know now. I personally would go with the ClearVue, but that really is a personal choice. Oneida, PSI, and others have very good cyclones as well. just make sure that you have a rough idea of what power tools you'll be using so that you can plan ahead the ducting properly. the rest of the tools really depends on what you're planning to do in terms of projects. to some a Table saw is essential, to others it would be nothing but a paper weight collecting rust. what are you planning to be doing? -- ㊍ When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route. |

I understand your point but isn't there some general rules for distance or runs and volume? And don't I need something until I get that 37" planer? (wow that is some wood) :) |

well in most shops, the table saw is the work horse…as far as power tools go..then a planer, joiner and bandsaw..i went with delta 15 years ago and have not had a bit of trouble..lots of folks around here like grizzly, and of coarse powermatic is a wonderful choice also…you can find good tools on graig list if you shop for awhile, and if you can stretch your dollars and get more tools the better huh…im sure plenty og folks will chime in here…good luck with your choices and most of all enjoy your new shop and enjoy your learning in wood working…always more to learn…grizzman -- GRIZZMAN ...['''''] |

Purplev, I am at the point where I want to enjoy creating almost anything from tables to boats, I think that is why I ask the question to help at least make educated choices, if I fall in love with a particular type or style i will adjust but right now I dont have any big ticket items. |

Grizzman, thanks I will ask another specific question and that is regarding Grizzly tools (how fitting) I am only two hours from the PA store and may take the time to visit, anyone have Grizzly tools? How do they perform? I have been looking at the new "White series" and it seems as thought it may be a good middle of the road for someone like me! |

Trips by Destination
In California, pedal through the famous vineyards of the Napa and Sonoma Valleys; come in February when the venerable Tour of California with the professionals chasing yellow. In Oregon, cycle a route from Astoria to the California border that has been rated by Bicycle Magazine as one of the 25 best on the planet. In Utah enjoy breathtaking canyons carved out by ancient rushing rivers and a landscape filled with towering mesas. Imagery of the Old West will fill you as you pedal past soaring arches and rocky spires, while taking the time to explore unexpected green valleys that were once home to wild mustangs. No wonder it's a dream destination for the adventurous cyclist.

Another day and yet another Australian company has been caught out exploiting foreign workers.
First it was 7-Eleven staff millions of dollars out of pocket, now it's been revealed Chinese and Taiwanese workers at a NSW mushroom farm were paid only half what they were entitled.
More BusinessDay Videos
7-Eleven wage abuse claims
Former 7-Eleven employee, Bharat Khanna, says underpayment of wages is still continuing with current 7-Eleven employees.
The Turnbull government must end the radio silence and come out in support of international workers or risk a reputation in tatters in overseas markets.
Foreign workers on visas are very vulnerable to exploitation because they are simply unaware of what a job in Australia actually should provide in wages and conditions.
If you got a new job overseas, in a country where perhaps you didn't speak the language, how would you know if it was a good job and if you were being paid properly?
This scenario has culminated in the biggest employment scandal Australia has ever seen – the rampant underpayment of workers in 7-Eleven convenience stores.
The lack of knowledge about working conditions in Australia among 7-Eleven workers has hidden the misery of chronic working poverty, cultivated a cohort of terrified workers afraid of deportation and set up a cycle of threats and violence from which there is no escape.
And it seems the federal government is happy to sit back and let this sad spiral continue, without a word of support.
Students with visa restrictions on the number of hours they have to work can't survive on the unlawful wages they are given. One worker we are representing was paid just 47 cents an hour, it would take him an entire day's work to earn the equivalent of one cup of coffee. They then have to work outside of their visa restrictions to simply make ends meet. If at some point they become aware they are being underpaid, and have the courage to speak up, their employer threatens to report them to the Department of Immigration for working outside of their visa restrictions. The students realise that such a report could lead to deportation. Petrified of deportation, these overseas students continue to work long hours being paid well below what the law requires.
Maurice Blackburn is representing more than 60 current and former 7-Eleven employees pro-bono to help them recoup the money they are owed. We have spoken to hundreds more who are considering the brave move to lodge a claim.
Without fail every 7-Eleven employee we have spoken to has said they didn't know how much they should be paid, they weren't sure of how many hours they were supposed to work and their conditions were never spelt out. Those that realised they were underpaid were petrified to speak up because of threats of deportation or even threats of violence. They only come forward now because of the guarantee of anonymity and because others have now spoken up.
Unfortunately 7-Eleven is only the tip of the iceberg. Reports are now surfacing of underpayments across the fast food sector including in Dominos, Subway and other franchises. Some of our clients have also reported systematic underpayment at petrol outlets, and indeed petrol outlets have been the subject of prosecution for underpayments in recent history.
The exploitation of workers is not limited to fast food, convenience stores and petrol outlets; it has also been exposed by Four Corners to be systematic and chronic across the fresh food industry including farm workers like the mushroom pickers. It is hardly surprising that farmers are struggling to find workers to perform seasonal work with the reports of systematic underpayment, exploitation and even sexual harassment of foreign students and others who perform this seasonal work.
Even Mike Smith, the new chairman of 7-Eleven, has admitted at a senate inquiry that small businesses will pay the wages that they can negotiate with employees, not what is actually lawful. It is as if the world of industrial law and industrial instruments such as awards are becoming a fantasy world, in which many businesses across a number of industries in Australia do not have any intention to enter.
If it is clear businesses like 7-Eleven are snubbing their noses at the law then arming their workforce with information is the best way to take these business to task.
Anecdotal evidence points to "word of mouth" and relying on other workers in the same industry to let you know what pay and conditions are like. This isn't good enough. If workers aren't being educated at the shop counter perhaps the customs counter is a good place to start. Unions would be happy to be a part of this process as well.
Compulsory education programs rolled out through universities or higher education facilities – from which much of this workforce is drawn from – will ensure future generations of foreign workers won't suffer this same fate.
There also need to be tougher penalties for employers that exploit and underpay workers as proposed recently by Labor. In addition, franchisors need to be made liable for the actions of franchisees who systematically underpay workers, as proposed by the Greens.
Clearly much more needs to be done, and there are proposals already that will help. It is time the radio silence from the federal government ended and worker rights are back on the agenda because everyone deserves a job that pays them more than the equivalent of a cup of coffee a day.
Employment and industrial lawyer Giri Sivaraman heads Maurice Blackburn's Brisbane practice.

Those wearying of Katie Price's honeyed figure adorning tabloid front pages may want to breathe a sigh of relief: it appears that the multi-talented model is to pursue a lower profile for the foreseeable future.
Price (aka glamour model Jordan) gave her long-time media handler, Claire Powell of Can Associates, the heave-ho several weeks ago in the wake of her split from husband Peter Andre (also managed by Powell).
Now she has announced Powell's replacement: Alan Edwards, founder of the trans-Atlantic PR firm, the Outside Organisation.
"At this stage she's been feeling an onslaught of attention so we're going to try and calm that down," explained an Outside spokesman. She has already cancelled her appearance on Friday night With Jonathan Ross, scheduled for the end of this week.
Intriguingly, Edwards's firm also represents Paul McCartney, whose divorce lawyer – the formidable Fiona Shackleton – is to handle Price's divorce. Insiders were keeping tight-lipped as to whether or not the shift was directly prompted by the advice of Shackleton, who doesn't talk to the press, though the prospect is not unlikely: "She might have recommended us," conceded the spokesman. "If she did, I'm sure that would have been helpful in deciding things."
Sophie's show gets the go-ahead
Congratulations, once again, to Sophie Winkleman, who moves ever-closer to international stardom. As regular readers will recall, the former RSC actress (currently starring in the BBC's Robin Hood) recently landed the lead in a proposed US TV series from the team behind Friends and Frasier. Winkleman, the fiancée of Lord Freddie Windsor, filmed the programme's pilot episode several weeks ago. Now we hear that the show has been picked up and will enter production shortly. Who said cracking America was hard?
Draper and Padel go head-to-head
Controversy-seekers were left with something of a diary clash at the Hay Festival last night, as two speakers, both accused of smear campaigns, took to the stage at the same time, on opposite sides of the event. Both Derek Draper and Ruth Padel had talks scheduled for 7.30pm, his concerning his psychology book Life Support, and hers examining Darwin's role in poetry. In the event, Padel proved the more popular draw, with tickets selling out hours before hand. No one, to Pandora's knowledge, was seen jogging between the two.
Izzard hits the road with Kinnock
"I know you're all disgusted with politics at the moment," boomed an excitable Eddie Izzard to the (probable) alarm of Cardiff's passing shoppers over the bank holiday weekend.
"But I am here encouraging people to vote."
Apparently, the cross-dressing comedian had taken to the streets alongside his old friend Neil Kinnock in order to campaign for Labour party votes in next month's European election. This is not as odd as it sounds: Izzard is a long-time friend of the party, and thought to have an eye on a Euro seat himself.
"If we don't make the EU work, then the world is screwed," he memorably told Newsweek last year. "End of story."
Prezza welcomes his granddaughter
Tremendous news: John Prescott has become a grandfather.
His son David – recently a freelance PR after leaving a long-term post at Geronimo communications – and daughter-in-law Roz welcomed a little girl, Ava Grace, into the world late yesterday afternoon.
Fittingly, Prescott Jr kept friends abreast of the birth's progress with twice-hourly twitter updates (sample quote: "am examining my scrubs. Purple!") No doubt Roz was thoroughly grateful.

I was determined not to do it.
But today I was forced to do it.
I had to dig out my WINTER COAT; CAP; GLOVES ETC.
I even had to dig out Bennie's coat. Well actually the BLUE one is Turner's that was always too big for him....complete with his matching BLUE leash.
And Bennie had his RED coat that was always too big for him......complete with his matching RED leash.
But the BLUE one fits Bennie better.
Bennie was actually giving his head a little shake right in the middle of taking this pic:
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
I woke up this morning and it was 16F/-8C. Last night I had my electric heater going non-stop and the furnace going full blast as well.
The problem with these RV's is that they are not built for these kind of temps. As quickly as it heats up, the heat goes out just as fast.
We bundled up (including my long johns on under my jeans) and walked over to the Office to do laundry. I was running low on propane (read: need it for HEAT), so I asked the women at the desk where I could go to fill up. She's a 'local' so called a few places in town....remember this is a very small place. No-one was open !
On my way in here I saw several RV Parks and hoped one of them would have propane as many of the larger RV Parks do have propane right on site.
Off to Walmart we go to do a major stock-up and buy another electric heater as these cold temps are going to last for another few days.
When I left Walmart I tracked back to the way I came in and sure enough I came to one of the RV Parks that had a sign that they had propane. But would anybody be there to dispense it ?? WHEW - there was.
Other than that I had a nice relaxing afternoon and evening - with both electric heaters going mad - but the furnace has not cut in once.
I am glad for that because (1) it blows out COLD air in the beginning which freezes me to death and (2) it's noisy.
Dinner for tonight was a hamburger with mushrooms; mashed potatoes; cauliflower and broccoli. .

Happy New Year Denise. It's definitely warmer here (31F)but that's still way too cold. We got propane yesterday too. Thank goodness. Your dinner looks really good. I've never thought of throwing the mushrooms in the pan with the meat. I usually cook them separately. Something new to try. The sun is shining here and I have hope for better weather.

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources
- Beginner Freshwater Aquarium
- - Help with water change and gravel clean
Help with water change and gravel clean hey i was just wondering when i do a gravel clean is that all so counted as a part water change or do i need to do just water changes on there own to remove ammonia nitrite and nitrates? and i was all so wanting to know what is the best way to do a water change and have your ammonia, nitrite and nitrates stay down at a good level after adding the new water in ? a step by step exsample would be good please thank you |
Gravel cleaning will serve as a water change, so long as enough water is removed, say 30% at least. However, if you still have ammonia or nitrites your tank is not yet cycled, so if you have fish in it daily water changes will probably be necessary, if no fish I'd let it be without water changes to let the bacteria get established. |
is your tank fully cylced and established? what are you water parameters, can you get a test sample? based on that and the above post, you will be able to know to change your water or not to(if you're still cycling)....we'll go from there |
Step by step: 1. Inset siphon into tank 2. Start siphon 3. Vacuum a portion of your gravel. I do 1/4 to 1/2 the tank a week. It isn't good to vacuum the whole tank, as this will disrupt the biological balances in the tank. 4. If you haven't removed a sufficient amount of water from the tank (the amount varies by who you ask, I do 1/3) continue keeping the siphon in tank until sufficient water is removed. 5. Remove siphon, unless you have a water changer. 6. Add dechlorinator/water conditioner of your choice. 7. Add water to fill tank, making sure the temperature is close to where you have it set for your tank. 8. Clean up and put your stuff away. 9. Repeat a week later. 10. Enjoy your clean aquarium and happy fish. You shouldn't have problems with your new water putting ammonia, nitrate, and nitrite back into your water. It is possible if your water contains them as it comes out...but the best way to remove said substances are weekly partial water changes. |
hahaha. I'll make a video and post it on youtube. #8 is optional too btw...you can just leave the stuff lying around if you want XD |
i have to disagree some on step #3....imo it depends on what kind of fish you have in your tank. if you have fish like african cichlids and ca/sa cichlids or any other fish which are very messy eaters then you'll want to clean all the gravel/sand when the tank is cleaned. |
You have every right to disagree if you want. Op asked for someone's opinion and I gave mine. Everything I've read says not to do the entire tank, so that's how I do it. To each his own. |

That part made me shudder a little. Not more "family" friendly stuff. But we'll see next week. This weeks episode was Good. I'm in the camp that likes the Victorian Scooby Gang.
It was good up until that final scene. It started badly with Clara being dropped off (which I hate) and then got worse with the introduction of precocious brats. Why would anyone believe them over Clara? She should have just told them to piss off and go to bed without supper.
Yeah, agreed on the iffiness of having kids in an episode. As far as their saying they'd tell their dad about a time traveling nanny, well, Clara should have just said go for it. It would give him a chuckle or to, for sure. I hope the photo of Victorian Clara prompts a question or two, though Clara might just put it down to an adventure she has yet to have.
#1.) In the future kindly explain why you feel whatever way about a given episode, such as diankara has suggested. It makes for a much more productive discussion, and your life on this board will be longer.. #2.) Kindly focus on your own postings and leave the moderating to Spaceman Spiff, Timby, and myself. Otherwise, it's an infraction due to the history you have here. P0sitr0nic, you and junxon both need to focus on your own posts, and the subjects at hand, please. This is after all the Doctor Who forum.
The kids in The Snowmen weren't bad, so it's at least theoretically possible to have a good episode with kids. Plus, the nanny aspect is part of Clara's character, so it's important to explore it a bit. That being said, "We'll tell Dad" doesn't strike me as the most plausible tie-in.
Yeah, he'd chuckle...then he'd ask Clara why she's Photoshopping herself into these old photos and who her 'boyfriend' is. And if the kids led him to the original websites those photos came from, and he realized they weren't Photoshopped... either way, Clara would have some fast talking to do. As for the kids, well, this is Neil Gaiman we're talking about. I can only assume the reason the kids were shoehorned into the end of this episode was because he wanted them in his story. And Iron Man 3 proved the other day that kids can be made to work in these kind of adventures, so I'm willing to give 'em the benefit of the doubt. If any show could pull it off...
Please, time travel? And she's got a boyfriend? Ooohhhh... dad would likely give them some chores to do as they clearly have too much free time on their hands.
To be fair, I suppose we have to wait until next week to find out if that was, in fact, all that was required or if they do something else next week.
Solid, but not amazing episode. I liked that it starred the Victorian crew. I can't believe that was Emma Peel If I hadn't read it I never would have guessed!!!
I'm not really expecting much more complex a reason than we saw. I'm not bugged by it, yet, and so long as the story is satisfying, I've no reason to complain.
Yeah, I enjoyed this one. Vastra, Jenny and Strax were perfect in this episode and left me wanting a spin-off. They are just so awesome. Best part was Strax preparing the horse for summary execution. The story itself was pretty good, with a few twists I didn't see coming. EG, I certainly wouldn't have guessed the Doctor was the "mosnter" the blind daughter was looking after. Likewise, at the start I was expecting the daughter's blindness to be an act and she was complicit with her mother. "Mr. Sweet" was a bit too cute looking to be believed as posing as much of a threat as he did, though maybe that was the point? The end with the kids Clara looks after finding pictures of her throughout history doesn't quite sit well with me. Particularly, one of them points to the picture of her and the Doctor with the submarine crew from Cold War saying they found it in school. Why would the crew of a submarine on a top secret mission take a picture of themselves with mysterious guests, and why would this be considered of enough significance to be in school books thirty years later? Oh whatever. The important thing is after a lousy outing last week Doctor Who is back in fine form and the remaing episodes of the season should be awesome. Particularly next week's, a Cybermen episode from Neil Gaiman. Yeah.
BTW, the impression on the eyes thing bothered me because I had recently seen The Ark in Space. Everyone was dismissing it as a myth and I kept thinking "no it isn't, the Doctor's done it himself." Granted, that required advanced technology, but it at least wasn't a myth.
Glad you remembered, I though that had come up in the show once before. The Doctor does say it's possible under special conditions, though. Close enough, I suppose.
I'm reading the 'Kids' thing as being that the Doctor is still trying to stay dead. It doesn't matter if the father believes them, the Doctor will try to keep them quiet in case anything they say gets picked up by anyone who's looking out for signs that he's not dead. (And yep, I think we can all work out that it'll go very badly wrong). And also... the kids found the pictures on the net. The Intelligence is in the net. The Intelligence almost certainly arranged for the Doctor to meet Clara back in Bells of St John. Come on, if this isn't the start of its trap, then I've got this bridge I'd like to sell you...
I was thinking the same thing. Why should he believe their tale of time travel? Then again, isn't this world one familiar with alien lifeforms coming to Earth?
Agreed on a spin-off, at least a short one. "Horse! You have failed in your mission!" And that kid that gave him directions wasn't the least bit bothered by his appearance. How did the gang get from London to Yorkshire so fast anyway?
He wouldn't. But, like the banker from Mary Poppins, he would wonder what kind of nanny he's got working for him when his kids are making up this crazy story and won't back down from it. (And again, Clara would have to think fast when Dad asks "What's the deal with these pictures?") At the very least, it would make things difficult for Clara's non-Doctor life moving forward, since she's apparently only moonlighting as his Companion at present.
When they first met after his de-shellacking he said "I'm the Doctor and you're nuts, and I'm going to stop you."
