Labor Day marks the end of summer. It used to be the last day it was acceptable to wear white or seersucker, but I'm pretty sure that's changed. When I lived back east, school started after Labor Day.
Oddly enough, Labor Day is also the second largest shopping day of the year. Second only to Black Friday after Thanksgiving. Retail workers make up the largest workforce in American and they don't have Labor Day off. In fact, they usually work longer hours.
I was surprised to learn that the federal Labor Day holiday was enacted to assuage the government's guilt following the Pullman Strike in which several workers were killed at the hands of the US Military and the US Marshals. In fact, Grover Cleveland signed Labor Day into law only six days after the end of the strike.
By the time the federal holiday was official, 30 states already had some version of a Labor Day which was put together by labor unions. They used it as a recruiting tool. It helped bring more paying members into the union. Labor Day was outlined to include a parade to show the strength of trade and labor workers, followed by a festival for workers and their families.
Some years I do this. I search for the origin or reason for something and then I realize that I don't want to know the answer. It would be great if Labor Day was a celebration of the worker, if stores closed and allowed retail workers to spend time with their families too, but that's not going to happen.
Labor Day marks the end of summer. For some, it is about road trips, salt water taffy and time with family and friends, unless you're in retail. It's the last day to wear white, if you are fortunate enough to have seasonal wardrobes. The how and the why it became official may be suspicious or marred by tragedy, politics and very little to do with workers, but as with many things, we gloss it up. Shopping, it can now be about shopping and profits and haggard, overworked sales people. See, I really wish I hadn't wondered.
My thoughts from the laundry room. Put Your Feet Up.
Kathie Lee Gifford commented
Kathie Lee Gifford commented on not wearing white after Labor Day. She was in white on Today Show obviously protesting the not wearing white. I wonder what the significance is behind white and labor day? A white cardigan in the fall i think still looks nice :-)
Me Too!
I've never understood the white rule. According to my mother there's summer white and winter white. I wear white when I feel like wearing white, so Kathie must be right. Thanks for reading and commenting.
It's asking for too much to expect a true celebration of workers. They too are marketable commodities in the corporate environment. I wonder whether retail store owners — ironical that they work on Labour Day to satiate others — would be deemed semi-qualified. In that case, they'd be part of the white collar force. Is that where the white comes from? What happens to blue collar workers, then, the ones who do manual labour?
Clothes aside, we really need to question the manner in which labour is not respected in almost every part of the world.
Thanks, Tracy, for the gentle reminder.
So True!
It seems it is too much to ask for a genuine Labor Day. Your comments are interesting.
I would think retail workers would fall under semi-qualified and therefore white collar, maybe off white because they don't fall into the typical image of white collar. Blue collar seems to have disappeared from any recognition at all in this country and perhaps others.
I feel like every time I look at labor, off-white (retail) and blue collar, they are sandwiched between the ulterior motives of the unions and the corporate employers.
I love the idea of Labor Day. A celebration of the backbone of our country that isn't normally celebrated or given a day of leisure. I'm not sure what the backbone of our country is anymore and I'm pretty sure the answer would again be disappointing.
Thank you for visiting and your comments.

freshfish - 5:58 pm on Mar 1, 2005 (gmt 0)
Anyway, to make a long story short, I have decided to create a 6 month plan to build sites and wait and hopefully see results in 6 months to start trickling in. I'm just looking to get my knowledge from theoretical to practical. I would like to run my plan by you all to see how the gurus feel about it: •I will be creating mini-sites and will create 2/week targeting a variety of niches. Here are my problems Is this a recipe for success (however minimal) or is it a recipe for a waste of time? Any suggestions? Thank you
Hello guys,
I have been lurking for a while posting every now and again. Although I know a lot of the experienced cats hate the "what does it take" type posts, as a newbie, they are very informative. Recently I came across a couple such threads and started thinking. I have loads of knowledge (far greater than my noob classification suggests) but have done nothing with it. My problem was that I could not delay gratification…i.e. build a site, build another site while waiting and another until results start showing. I mean I started dabbling with sites back in 1996-1997…I should have cleaned up by now, living on my own island :o))) Ohhh the curse of the will power.
•I will use my personal domain to host the sites, each in their own directory or sub domain…not sure which is better ((Should I have a domain for each mini site I create?))
•I will select a niche, do keyword research and select a list of 7-10 keywords
•The keywords should have ppc bids from $0.25 and up (I wont be targeting the $10-25 keywords since there will be a heck of a lot of competition there).
•I will create a simple straight forward looking site with 7-10 pages each based on the keywords. I will find an affiliate prog and add a banner or two and try to apply for adsense. After the first week, I would submit the 2 sites to google, msn, DMOZ, etc.
•Content pages will be 300-600 words long
•I will interlink the pages with one another and will have ~2 outgoing links to authority sites from each mini-site.
•I'll keep building these mini-sites each week so that by the end of the 6 months I should have ~48 sites.
>> I have no 'authority' sites of my own so I will not have back links
>> I only have one domain to use (the actual domain name is in google already but no pr)

"WASHINGTON — Sen. Tom Coburn, who has been blocking fast-track passage of a food safety bill, said Wednesday that Senate Democrats could bring up the legislation if they weren't busy pushing proposals on immigration, gays in the military and campaign finance reform.
Coburn's comments came after the head of a House committee investigating a salmonella outbreak traced to eggs pleaded with Coburn to release his hold on the bill.
Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Calif., the chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, said at a hearing on the outbreak that Coburn's actions were preventing the Food and Drug Administration from strengthening oversight and enforcement programs ... "

So October MCM 2013 in London will forever be.... the first time I got con-flu. Having finally recovered and caught up with stuff, I can now show you lovely people the... lack of photos I had taken of my costumes...
Friday I drove up to London for the first time, and the people I was room-sharing with didn't arrive 'till late, so I didn't cosplay. I did get a nice look round the dealer's room, and actually bought some stuff for a change though.
Saturday was the big one - the Jak and Daxter group with Jenny and Naomi (and Matt, but I drag him everywhere). I'd finished the costumes for Matt and myself the day before we left, so I was pretty pleased with how they came out, even if the rush to finish meant that I didn't seal the paint and wig dye again rain... and of course it rained on Saturday. Once the weather cleared up though, it was great fun, and lots of people recognised us, which was heartening.
Sunday we wore out Attack on Titan uniforms. I think I've found the definition of nerve-wracking - making a jacket and fully body harness which someone tries on half an hour before they want to wear it to a con. Oh well, everything mostly fit, and we met a ton more awesome AoT cosplayers, so that costume'll definitely be a keeper.
All in all, expo was great (a tad cold), despite the few teething problems that the new ticket/queueing system had.
Next projects include: Ms Marvel (Earth's Mightiest Heroes) and Faye (Cowboy Bebop). Keep posted.

October expo 2013 runup
Right, it's been a while since I posted becuase I have been swamped with prep for October Expo 2013 in London.
Following Ayacon, some friends and I got talking and realised we all liked Attack on Titan a bit too much, so with only two months to play with, I had the task of making the uniforms. Thankfully it was only three of them, but it still took a while, making the jackets, harnesses, skirts and my tshirt from scratch:
Also, my partner and I are doing a small Jak and Daxter cosplay group. I'm still in the panic-making stage of those costumes, but here's a sneak peak:
In-btween the large tasks, I've also had a great amount of fun for my first time using worbla, making Melisandre's choker from season 2 of the Game of Thrones TV show:
Hopefully the young lady who it is for will like it and look beautiful as one of the most undoubtably evilcharacters that GoT has to offer ;)
Other than that, October expo will be my second wear of Garrus, as I'm already planning a new big costume for Kitacon2014.

Very late Ayacon update - complete with Garrus
So, Ayacon 2013 (the final Ayacon ever) was last month. It was my first
time going to an Ayacon event, and it was great fun. It was also my
first time entering the cosplay masqurade, and I have to thank everyone
that cheered and had nice things to say - it made the whole thing
enjoyable rather than terrifying. It was also great fun getting to
natter to some people in the waiting room for the masq, so thanks for
all being so friendly.
I also managed to wander round for part of the day in my Garrus, though it was warm and quite akward to move in. My partner had to act as my bag-carrier in the battle dress Shepard I made.
For the other days I was lazy and wore May from Pokemon and Naoto from Persona 4, but didn't get any new photos as I was too busy enjoying the convention.
As always, especially as this update is so late, take a look at https://www.facebook.com/Zelvyne for more regular updates, including tutorials and progress pictures.

They played 162 games in 1961. That is why the commissioner Ford Frick tried to have an asterik put by Maris's record.Double switches are woefully underused. It gets a defensive liability off the field without hurting his feelings with the excuse that you want the pitcher to go for longer than an inning.
I like the 8 batters in a lineup idea. The "it will give players more at-bats and skew records" argument is a strawman to me. They didn't play 162 games a season until 1962, which makes Maris' 61 HRs even more impressive to me since it happened the year before. I agree that the MLBPA would oppose it due to the loss of jobs, but they could find a compromise in expanding the rosters or something like that.
I also like the idea of a Dejesus/Jackson/Byrd outfield with Soriano as the DH. That would have to rate as one of the better defensive outfields in the NL.

In Topic: The Curse Must be Dead
03 February 2012 - 04:22 PM
There have been two teams prior to this past year that broke the Ex-Cubs Factor, the 1960 Pittsburgh Pirates and the aforementioned 2001 Arizona Diamondbacks.I think it was proven not to be a factor long ago. Can't recall specific evidence, but its there. Unfortunately, I have stuff I can't put off anymore or I would look it up.

And you get no arguments from me about any of those statement. I guess it was a bit of overreaction on my part, but there was a lot of talk at the time and since that Kenny Lofton was what ignited the run to the playoffs that year which simply isn't bore out by any empirical evidence.I think Lofton certainly did help...but would agree that his acquisition is not what got them there. Ultimately it was a team effort, but the most important players in that run were probably the two most obvious....Wood and Prior. Prior was unbelievable down the stretch.
It was a good trade. As you stated earlier, ARam was a steal. Certainly the best Cubs 3rd baseman in my lifetime.

This to me is what is going to force the hand on the issue. It is one thing for teams to play by two sets of rules for limited stretches of a season, but it is another with year long interleague coming. It will be a lot easier to add the DH to the NL than removing it from the AL because ultimately apart from a few traditional NL fans everyone wants it that way.Now that Bud is going to be around another two years, I can see it as more likely than it might have otherwise been. With the Astros going to the AL, and increased interleague play, I think you'll see the call for it by both leagues - the NL because they're tired of being at a disadvantage, and the AL because they're tired of forcing their pitchers to bat every now and again.

I suppose that was my quibble. You will have no argument from me that Lofton was huge in the playoffs, but I took your saying of playoff run as meaning both the stretch that pushed the Cubs into first place in the division and the playoffs. Many have made the argument that the acquisition of Lofton is what allowed the Cubs to go on the run to get to the playoffs, which is not accurate to say. However, if your statement was merely about Lofton's postseason performance than I withdraw my quibble.During the playoffs, Lofton led the team in RUNS, STOLEN BASES, and was second in HITS to Moises Alou. In addition to this, he was third in WALKS behind only A-Ram and Sosa giving him one of the highest OBP.
One thing that I remember from that playoff run (as painful as it is to think about it) is that Lofton always seemed to get on base and score.
If the word "catylist" bothers you maybe we could call him something else. Either way, he was a huge part of their offense in the 2003 playoffs.

Computability, Complexity, and Languages
Fundamentals of Theoretical Computer Science
By- Martin Davis
- Ron Sigal
- Elaine Weyuker
Junior, senior, and graduate level students in Computability, Complexity, and Languages or Introduction to Theoretical Computer Science courses.
Hardbound, 609 Pages
Published: February 1994
Imprint: Morgan Kaufmann
"If there is a single book on the theory of computing that should be in every college library collection, this is it. Although written as a text for an advanced undergraduate course in theoretical computer science, the book may serve as an introductory resource, or the foundation for independent study, in many areas of theoretical computing: grammars, automata theory, computability, complexity theory, and unsolvability. The beauty of this book is that the breadth of coverage is complemented with extraordinary depth." âCHOICE
"Theoretical computer science is often viewed as a collection of disparate topics, including computability theory, formal language theory, complexity theory, logic, and so on. This well-written book attempts to unify the subject by introducing each of these topics in turn, then showing how they relate to each other... This is an excellent book that succeeds in tying together a number of areas in theoretical computer science." âCOMPUTING REVIEWS

TABLE 4-6 Other Pollutants of Air Quality Identified by Environmental Protection Agency
Pollutant |
Major Effects |
Leading Source |
Air toxins (188 in total, e.g., dioxins, benzene, arsenic, beryllium, mercury, vinyl; chloride) |
Thought to cause cancer or other serious health effects, such as birth defects or reproductive effects Ecosystem damage (particularly freshwater fish) |
Transportation, wood combustion, chemical plants, oil refineries, aerospace, manufactures, dry cleaners |
Stratospheric ozone depleters (e.g., chlorofluorocarbons [CFCs], halons, carbon tetrachloride, methyl chloroform) |
Skin cancer Cataracts Suppression of the immune system Ocean food chain stresses |
Fossil fuel, industrial cleaners |
Greenhouse gases (e.g., carbon dioxide, methane, halogenated fluorocarbons [HFCs]) |
Broad-scale changes in temperature and precipitation affecting agriculture, health, water resources, recreation, ecosystems Sea level rise |
Fossil fuel, combustion, landfills |

(e.g., carbon dioxide and methane). As indicated, EPA has identified 188 air toxins alone.
Exposure to air pollution has a wide range of impacts, including respiratory illnesses (which result from ground-level ozone, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, particulate matter, and air toxins); child IQ loss, infant mortality, strokes, and heart attacks (which result from lead); skin cancer (which is the indirect consequence of stratospheric ozone depleters); and increased mortality (resulting from particulate matter, lead, and air toxins) (see Pearce et al., 1996). Ecological effects include impacts on agricultural, forest, and aquatic ecosystems. Airborne chemicals have both positive and negative effects on production of marketed goods and services. Ground-level ozone harms crops, while nitrogen deposition and carbon dioxide enhance plant and timber growth. Ground-level ozone and sulfur dioxide reduce crop yields and timber growth, while air toxins and sulfur dioxide reduce freshwater fish yields. In other cases, atmospheric trace gases have subtle effects that will occur far in the future affecting

Award-Winning Laos
Published: March 16th 2007
A Perfect Kodak Moment
March 16th 2007
To me, Laos was an award-winning country. I fell in love with this country's rugged terrain of emerald mountains and dramatic limestone peaks crisscrossed with rivers and forests. Laos seemed relatively untouched by tourism. The people were warm, friendly, relaxed, and kind-hearted. Laos is socialist country with a population of 5.6 million. 80% of the population live in remote rural areas. Many areas can only be reached by boat or by plane. Most of the small villages or tribes have never seen a Westerner. (e.g. The Yellow Banana Leaf tribe. This 21- member tribe lives under yellow banana leaves and, sadly, will soon become extinct). After our 12-day visit in Laos, the following prizes were awarded by a panel of one lowly judge (aka moi): World's Most Heavily Bombed Country Tragic Winner: Laos Per capita,

Greetings Faithful Blog Followers (all 3 of you), I don't want to return to New Zealand and still be in Vietnam (blogwise). Thus, I have decided to describe Vietnam in numbers. It's a quicker way to recount my traveling adventures. So here's Vietnam by Numbers: Number (no.) of times my hair was touched without permission: 3 No of times my hair was braided and twirled without permission: 1 (That was one too many times for my liking).

Hello Loyal Blog Followers. It's been ages since I have written a blog. I am now travelling in the South Island of New Zealand. My time has been consumed with seeing this beautiful part of New Zealand before the snow flies. Additionally, I wanted to do a few multi-day hikes before they closed for the winter. Thus, I have had limited internet access. Alas, I am bound and determined to finish off my blogs from my SE Asia trip this week. Although, my blog entries will be nearly 2 months late, I have safely stashed all of my Asian memories in my little noggin. These memories are patiently waiting for me to put my fingers to the keyboard. Like wine, they have gotten better with time! So where did I leave off before taking a

Scene of the Crimes: Hoi An and Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam Counts of Robbery: 6 Total Amount Stolen: $1001 CDN Convicted Criminals: 6 Vietnam ATM machines Case Details: While I was in Hoi An, I attempted to withdraw money from 2 different ATM machines. In both cases, the ATM's screen stated, "Unsuccessful transaction" and promptly spit out my New Zealand bank card. I did not receive a receipt or any money. Fortunately, I was successful at withdrawing money from a third bank machine. While I was in Ho Chi Minh City, I spent 2 hours trying to withdraw money from various ATM machines. My nearly impossible mission began at a bank that housed 3 ATMs. I tried 4 times to withdraw money from these 3 ATMs. All four attempts resulted in "unsuccessful transaction" as displayed

Vietnam: Leatherman Not Included

Welcome to Vietnam!
February 16th 2007
Have you ever wanted something for so long that when you do get it, you'll do anything to keep it? I have always wanted a Leatherman ever since I saw my first one about 13 years ago. I was enthralled with the needle nose pliers and the multiple tools. I could not justify buying one because I rarely tackled the great outdoors. Instead, I secretly coveted my friend's Leatherman. When I decided to travel, can you guess what item I purchased immediately after a backpack? Why of course, a Leatherman. It's an absolute necessity for all backpackers in addition to ear plugs and Immodium (Think the travellers' trots on a long bus journey. Asian buses typically don't have washrooms). On December 28, 2006, I became the proud owner of a glacier blue Leatherman, the C2 Juice

Our train pulled into Bangkok at 5:30am, February 12. We had already booked the best accommodations in the city; at Laurie's condo, my friend from Sault Ste. Marie. I had not seen Laurie since she moved to Bangkok to teach at an international school 6 years ago. It was fabulous to see her again. It was comforting to know that we had 5-star accommodations and a friend to give us some much needed advice on how to tackle Bangkok, the city of 10 million people. Laurie's Thai boyfriend, Danai, was our personal tour guide for two days. He was on holidays and generously offered to show us around Bangkok. Now back to Bangkok's train station at 5:30 am. We managed to hail a cab. The driver seemed reluctant to take 3 foreigners aboard who didn't speak

Two Monkeys on the Train
February 12th 2007
Thai Transportation Tales En Route to Bangkok Feb 11-12, 2007 We hit the road again on February 11. This time we were penciled in for 18 hours of travel from Koh Pha Nga to Bangkok. I was dreading the 18 hours by taxi, ferry, bus, and train. I seriously considered taking a flight to Bangkok. After some deliberation, I decided to stick with the original 18-hour game plan. Our days spent travelling were proving to be better fodder for stories than our actual destinations. Furthermore, part of the adventure in backpacking is in the traveling itself. Our 18 hours of travel to Bangkok didn't prove me wrong regarding story fodder. Here are some tales from our travels by ferry, bus, and train.

Elated After our First Dive

After we broke the silence at the monastery meditation retreat, we headed to Thailand's SE Islands via a bus and a ferry. We couldn't wait to experience the crystal blue waters and the swathes of gorgeous white sand beaches that travelers rave about. Here are the highlights and lowlights of each of the three islands. Koh Sumi Island February 3-4 Highlights *Paying only $8 for an hour Thai massage. It quickly turned into a low-light when the massage therapist cracked my back without asking permission. She then tried to contort my inflexible body into various positions to stretch my muscles.

Our Arrival into Thailand
January 30th 2007
In the early morning of January 30th, we boarded a ferry from Langkawi, Malaysia to Suma in the Far South of Thailand. This was the only place that we could enter Thailand from Langkawi. According to the Canadian Consulate, the Far South of Thailand is considered to be a dangerous area for tourists (There were reports of beheadings and terrorist activities in 2004). Because of this, we decided it would be best to travel north to one of the islands in SE Thailand. While we were on the ferry, we were trying to decide which island to go to first. On a whim, we decided to change our plans and head to a 10-day meditation retreat at a Budhist monastery. It was en route to the islands. April's sister had attended this retreat a few years
