On the first Friday of each month, the U.S. Department of Labor announces job numbers and unemployment figures for the previous month. During the early months of 2012, the figures looked particularly good for the Obama Administration and Democrats. Jobs were growing at over 250,000 per month, and unemployment was dropping from the 9% threshold that seemed to be the barometer that would determine whether or not Obama was going to win reelection in November.
The past several months have been odd as unemployment continues to decline (down significantly to 8.1% from April,) while the number of jobs has increased at a rate less than the rate of population growth in the United States. In April, the number of people with jobs increased by only 115,000, down from March, when the figure was a paltry 154,000.
As John Silvia, chief economist at Wells Fargo said, "If there are less people working, then your potential for what the economy can produce is reduced."
The private sector is growing slightly, while the public sector is a veritable factory producing unemployment. Restaurants and bars produced 20,000 jobs in April. We all know how much bars add to the quality of life in America; something approximating the value of casinos. As Walter Mondale might say, "Where's the manufacturing?"
Even before Scott Walker became governor of Wisconsin, the public sector had been hemorrhaging jobs at a cascading rate. Teachers, police officers, fire fighters, sanitation workers and others have been laid off without having their positions replaced. Pensions have been reduced and in some cases eliminated. Salaries have been decreased, at times with the salutary motive of limiting how many workers are fired.
While progressives long for the unemployment rate to go down, particularly to provide evidence that the recession stoked by President George W. Bush is in recovery, the figures can be misleading. The current U.S. work force is hovering under 155 million. The unemployment rate is calculated by dividing the number of people looking for work by this 155 million. That means that in April there were over twelve and a half million people looking for work who could not find a job.
If all 12.5 million individuals looking for work had jobs and no one was looking for work, employment would be 100%, and unemployment would be 0%. However, this mathematical equation works at any number. If only one person was looking for a job and he or she had found it, then unemployment rate would also be 0%, because no one else would be unsuccessfully looking for a job, thus making the employment rate 100%.
Last year, 86 million Americans were not counted in the labor force because they didn't keep up a regular job search. Most of them were either under age 25 or over age 65.
There is good, bad and mixed news in the chart above. By age, the prime age for full-time workers, ages 25-54, collectively have an unemployment rate of approximately the national average of 8.1%. Younger individuals (16-24 years of age), have an unemployment rate 2 ½ times the national average, but it's important to remember that many of these individuals are students and only halfheartedly looking for work. Those who are between 55-64 have close to twice the national average of unemployment, and some are nearly ten years short of receiving Social Security and Medicare, and their job skills are outdated. Their stories are among the most tragic and discouraging in our society. Those who are 65 and older need work more than ever, because so many pensions have been trashed.
The biggest distortion in the figures is that there are well over twenty million stay-at-home parents working in our society. They work as hard, or harder, than others who work for corporations or are self-employed. However, they do not receive a nickel for their efforts. If these 23 million individuals were added to the 155 million conventionally in the work force, our unemployment rate would fall to 7.0%. In some countries, stay-at-home parents receive government subsidies for their efforts, thus both helping them and putting more money in circulation.
So on each first Friday of the month, when you hear the unemployment figures, keep in mind (1) that they are skewed, (2) they currently reflect the discouragement of individuals who have dropped out of the work force, and (3) they give no respect or accountability to stay-at-home parents.
We need to refine the way we measure unemployment. However, that doesn't create jobs. We also need another stimulus package, much larger than the one of 2009, to put more individuals to work. Jobs and income are more than numbers with political implications. They are bread and butter for distressed families. Democrats need to wake up; Republicans need to grow consciences. Neither of these will be easy, but they are essential. Once again, it's progressives who need to set the agenda and advocate it.

An Interview with Susan Zutautas: New In Town
Today I had a chance to interview Susan Zutautas about her book New In Town. Susan was born in Montreal, Quebec, and currently resides in Southern Ontario, with her husband and sons.
Interview by Bonnie Diczhazy
How did you come up with the story line for New In Town?
I sat down one day and started daydreaming actually. The next day I decided to sit at the computer and type up what I'd been daydreaming about. I started the story with no idea where it was going or how it would end.
Do you have a specific writing style?
I'm not sure that I've yet to find my writing style but I hope that when I do it is my own.
What's your favorite part of New In Town?
My favorite part is when Morag and Kelly go over to Ian's for the first time for dinner.
What are your current projects?
Right now I have book number one, in a series of three children's poetry story books almost ready to publish. All three books have been written, and the first one has been illustrated.
What do you like to do when you're not writing?
Cooking is my second passion next to writing and when I'm not writing you will usually find me in my kitchen creating new recipes.
What book are you reading now?
I'm currently reading Ghost of Lost Eagle by Dean Sault. I don't find as much time as I'd like to, to sit down and read an actual book these days. I'm usually on the computer all day reading or writing myself and by the time I log off at night my eyes are usually ready to call it a day too.
Do you have any advice for other writers?
If it is your dream to write and publish a book then follow your dream. Try and write something every day whether it is a poem, a journal entry, an online article, or a short blog post. Join a website where other people can critique your work. Talk to other authors and maybe join a writer's workshop.

Nice interview. I will have to get out of my current writing and do some more reading..................I miss reading but also find I don't have much time for it......
Nice interview! I've read Susan's book (I know, I need to formally review it) and definitely enjoyed the twists and turns and suspense to the story. Recommended!
Sue: Your productivity is amazing (and inspiring). You are proving there really are no creative limits.
Very nice interview. Will have to put it on my wish list!
Loved the interview and getting to know Susan a little better.
I read Susan's book, New In Town, and really enjoyed it. I recommend it! Great interview.
I didn't know Susan wrote a book. Will have to check it out. Oh, and her advice is right on.....
Thanks for the introduction. Sounds like we have a great deal of talent here at Squidoo - look forward to reading about other authors.
I loved New in Town! Great story! Can't wait for a sequel!! I would love to see the children's poetry book published! Hopefully there will be another interview for that. :-)
I sure wish I had more time to read, even so this is going on my list! I Love to read things written by my fellow peers. One of my favorite books was actually self published by a nice girl who works at my local library.
Congratulations on your new book, Susan. Good interview.
I love learning one more of the many dimensions of Susan. One Cool Woman.
I have read New in Town, and really enjoyed it! Susan is so talented and deserves all the recognition she can get. I'm looking forward to see her children's poetry story books published. Knowing Susan and her wonderful talent as an author, I know I'll not be disappointed. Thank you for a great interview. :-)
Sannel Larson
Thank you Bonnie for interviewing me and to everyone here that has written a comment. I forgot to mention that I hope to start working on sequel soon to New In Town. Thank you again everyone!
Susan, wonderful review and congratulations on your book feature as well - great to get to know you even better here!
@Susan Zutautas: Glad to hear about the upcoming sequel, Susan. I'll be looking forward to that!

(quote) Allen-311949 said: I have a full plate from August until the end of the year, so I am not sure if I can make time for another trip to Arizona. That being said, the November date would be better for me. As far as activities; I have always liked caverns and have been to a few here in the east. The Arizona Sonora Desert Museum sounds kinda cool too.Full plate, Allen? Then it's time to go on a diet... Cut out the "junk meetings"...
I also like the caverns, and loved the arboretum and state park hike that some of us took in Spring. I'm really up for anything (EXCEPT shopping ), including another comedian show, concert, or game.
I vote for November again, but I can make the October date if that's what's best for others.

News came late Friday Afternoon that the team Oregon would be facing on Saturday will be playing without a big key in its offense. Starting Quarterback Travis Wilson, who has thrown 16 touchdowns this season will be on the sidelines recovering from a concussion. The Utah Offense will turn to Sophomore Adam Schulz, who was highlighted in a piece from October in the Salt Lake Tribune. In Schulz the Utes lose Wilson's mobility, but potentially gain a stronger arm.
When Utah's Defense is on the field it will be a different story. The Utes have more sacks (33) than any other team in the country. The big question is whether it will be enough to disrupt the Oregon Offense. Watch out for Utah on Special Teams. Last week they punted a ball 70 yards on Arizona State, but ultimately lost the game 20-10.
For the season Utah Sophomore Quarterback Adam Schulz is 22 for 45, good for 247 yards with a touchdown and an interception.
Oregon and Utah take to the field Saturday at 1pm PT on Fox Sports 1.

When Dr. Barry Katzman opened West Coast Eye Care & Med Spa, he envisioned the space as a small practice that would help locals better enjoy the city's famous sunsets and beaches. With his expertise—he's participated in hundreds of studies for advanced treatments—the business quickly took on enough customers to sustain seven offices, a staff of a dozen doctors, and its own language, which outsiders describe as Latin spoken in pig Latin. After outfitting eyes with prescriptions and preventive care, staffers can help them navigate an optical boutique stocked with more than 10,000 designer frames by Dior, Bvlgari, and Tom Ford. Regular performances of more advanced surgeries, such as LASIK, cataract laser procedures, and eyelid lifts, made the staff intrigued about similar aesthetic procedures. As a result, they opened a med spa, where they tighten and brighten skin with injections, rejuvenating laser treatments, and even plastic surgery.
If you're willing to let someone operate on your eyes with a laser, what's the one thing they better have? Steady hands are important, sure, but how about experience? All told, The LASIK Vision Institute's doctors have performed more than one million eye surgeries at 57 locations nationwide. Across its network, the company has independent veteran surgeons who are all LASIK experts.
Technology has played a major role in LVI?s success, as well. Each location relies on FDA-approved laser technology that results in minimal discomfort and short recovery times, in addition to helping many patients see 20/20 or better.
The experienced aestheticians at Ageless and Beautiful foster smoother dermises and slimmer waistlines with Lipomassage, also known as endermologie. During the noninvasive, FDA-approved treatment, trained hands guide dual-action rollers across problem areas to break apart fat cells. The rollers, much like a moody blowfish, employ a combination of agitation and suction designed to shrink cellulite and firm loose skin. Though not classified as a weight-loss procedure or a mammal, Lipomassage can reduce inches in addition to reducing the appearance of cellulite.
Football fans owe a thank-you to Dr. Farzad Yaghouti. The doctor's LASIK expertise made it possible for linebacker Shaun Phillips to achieve 20/15 vision, energizing the athlete?s NFL career for the foreseeable future. Dr. Yaghouti, Global Laser Vision's medical director, has performed more than 60,000 LASIK operations and lectured on the procedure at national conferences and on Fox 6 News?s San Diego Living.
The doctors at Global Laser Vision meet with patients for preliminary exams during which they discuss the pros and cons of treatments and perform numerous tests and measurements. Global Laser Vision also works to treat cataracts, and removes growths from eyes using surgical methods far more effective than simply blinking really fast.
Drawing from more than 25 years of experience working in the med-spa and cosmetic-surgery field, Kathleen Rocca harnesses her knowledge and skills as a clinical aesthetician at her own skincare and anti-aging haven: Eastlake Rejuvenation Center. Guests pass through a lushly landscaped patio area as they arrive for the noninvasive cosmetic treatments, including facials with red and blue LED light, body-contouring laser lipolysis sessions, or photofacials that use intense pulsed light to tighten lax skin loosened after one too many trips to the moon.
In addition to helping area residents look and feel better, Rocca stays involved with her community on a grander scale, sharing beauty advice on Fox 6 news and serving as the president of the?Bonita Business & Professional Association.
Glasses frames have come a long way from the clunky, squarish black frames that were originally used to punish children for squinting in church. Choice Vision offers a plethora of sophisticated, stylish, and comfortable frames from designer brands such as Fendi, Giorgio Armani, Calvin Klein, Dior, Gucci, and the guiding light of global fashion, SpongeBob SquarePants. Ladies will find the perfect design to adjective their vocation of choice with "hip," while dudes can score some retro frames that surround their head in a glittering haze of irony. Frames range from $75 to more than $500.

Mother Feather, Not Blood Paint
Cameo Gallery
93 N. 6th St.
Brooklyn, NY, 11211
This event is 21 and over
"If you're feeling this you're my next victim," front-woman Ann Courtney intones with steely-eyed confidence, assuring the audience of motherfeathers of their submission to the cult.
With their ferocious and enthralling live show, Mother Feather has ignited a wildfire of followers since hitting the New York club scene in 2010.
Epic songs warrant larger-than-life costumes and dance, and a garishly bedazzled Courtney and hype-woman sidekick Lizzie Carena slither, thrust, and high-kick their way through a set that invokes Marc Bolan's cheeky swagger, Bowie's braggadocio, and the howl and shimmy of a "To Bring You My Love"-era PJ Harvey. This is pop cock-rock: anthemic riffs, now-or-never bravado, and tight dance beats bolstered by pop precision and purity of mission. "'Mother Feather' is the muse," says Courtney. "It is the embodiment of your wildest inspiration. Every song is a challenge--to myself and the audience. I want catharsis and I want it now."
Long before you arrive at a Not Blood Paint show the rumours reach you. They are music, they are spectacle, they are hit 'n run theater, car crash club night, they are a disorientating re-imagining of what four men, five coats of make-up and accomplished musicality can do with a six by ten space.
"Whereas most bands falter when it comes to this sort of copious genre-bending and experimentation, Not Blood Paint thrives. The art never overwhelms the pop and the pop never overwhelms the art." - Dan Caffrey, Consequence of Sound
"It's like two David Bowies with two mirrors having two sexes with Cleopatra, Hamlet, and Dionysus. They're a four-piece." -Jim Earl
Joshua, Elizabeth and Lewis Valleau have been making music separately and in pairs for years, but finally the triplets are united in a mission to take dance music into the darkest of nights.
Combining classical training in piano, guitar, harpsichord, drums, and voice with personal obsessions with synthesizers, drum machines, analogue tape and Live PA, WOLVVES seeks to push the fragile boundaries of dance genres into the psychedelic extremes of harmonic emotion.
WOLVVES are inspired by bells, ghosts, predators, white-knuckled terror, the tears of lost lovers, and the knowledge that "Every moment we are living in someone else's past" - William Gibson.
Their debut EP "Feed the Hand that Bites" is 4 tracks deep, with another 2 due before the Fall.

Correction to Judeo-Christ
Reader comment on item: How the West Could Lose
Submitted by Hindu-Buddhist (United States), Jan 13, 2007 at 04:13
" ... You have not answered one of the posts about why your co-conspirators are fleeing their "Beautiful Moslem Lands" in millions to Western Judeo-Christian oriented Lands??"
Should read:
"Western Hindu-Buddhist-Christian oriented Lands"
Reason: Hindus and Buddhists settled in USA and Europe are increasingly more powerful, and they are fighting the Islamic terror shoulder to shoulder with you guys.
So don't leave us out of the coming party...LOL

"Sleeping Dogs" Game: GTA Meets Tekken (video)
Grand Theft III was a game like no other. However, after a few iterations, the story line, as well as the game play became stale. One of the biggest drawbacks was the all too familiar fighting systems, which was effectively punching and kicking.
Although the proverbial jury is still out on the "Sleeping Dog's" story line, we do know that the fighting system looks to be folds and folds above that of GTA. In fact, the developers, Square Enix, consulted with MMA superstar GSP, otherwise known as George St. Pierre. Needless to say, there is also a bit of brand leveraging on their behalf, but why the hell not. Anyway, skip to about minute 3 in the above walk through to cut to the action. Unlike other games of this ilk, you can perform a variety of hand-to-hand combat moves that are something like a character from Tekken. Otherwise enjoy the full 8 minute walk through, which cues you into the character, his location, and some of the other unique elements in the game.
"Sleeping Dogs" arrives August 14th for the PC, Xbox 360, and PS3. It will cost $60.

I have been using WDS successfully and capturing and deploying an image over PXE. Unfortunately i've got a laptop that just does not want to connect using PXE :/ Doesn't even connect to our server.
I need to know a SIMPLE way, hopefully without the need for DOS, on how to take the captured image on our server, stick it on a or external hard drive and just image the laptop with it.
Easy step by steps would be most appreciated!

Any idea why these pumps are hard to prime. They seem to get air on them. I have to unhook the lower fitting run them for a bit to get them going. I thought if they were mounted like this they would work better.
For one, they're mounted upside down. You really want the outlet at the top so that the air pocket that forms gets pushed out of the pump, rather than through the pump causing cavitation. You might also consider installing a bleeder valve just after the pump outlet to help with priming.
Yep, upside down. You don't have to remove the pumps; you can remove 4 bolts and rotate the pump heads. Unfortunately, it looks like you'll need to make a couple of new lines to reach the pump inlets at the bottom.
Well Crap! I thought you would want the help of gravity to prime the pumps. Guess my thinking was wrong! Thanks guys!
Additional info here..... http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/marc...unting-330217/
This was my fix. I have not tested it and I still need to shorten the return hoses.
According to the March Pump Manual, you do not want any elbows or restrictions within 8" of the inlet.
Use a longer loop of hose going into the inlet of the pump and get rid of the elbows..
One thing I have done is add priming valves to my outlets. This has greatly simplified the effort to get things moving. When you are ready to start the pump, open the priming valve to bleed any air out of the pump, then once you have good flow, close the priming valve and everything should start moving where you want it to. I catch the output in a small bucket so I can add it back into the batch.
Please excuse the foil heat shielding.

Cattle nutrition rules of thumb allow quick estimation
Rules of thumb can be dangerous because they are simplified, generalized algorithms that we use instead of a more detailed, accurate calculation. Many times, however, rules of thumb are very useful when you need a quick estimate of a quantity or relationship. FULL STORY »
Forage Focus: Frosted forage precautions
Several forage species can be extremely toxic soon after a frost and deadly to livestock if consumed. FULL STORY »
Oklahoma October rain = wheat pasture = stocker demand
The formula is pretty simple. Winter wheat planting in Oklahoma this fall is ahead of normal pace and the best in several years. All that is lacking in many cases is a rain to get the wheat up or connect surface moisture with subsoil moisture and keep the wheat growing. FULL STORY »
Make time to body condition score cows
The old tractor still runs, but because the fuel gauge is busted, you have to keep checking to make sure it has enough fuel to continue working. And whether you realize it or not, your cows function similarly to that old tractor. FULL STORY »
Prussic acid poisoning is a concern after a light frost
It was discovered in the early 1900s that under certain conditions sorghums are capable of releasing hydrocyanic acid or commonly called prussic acid. Prussic acid when ingested by cattle, is quickly absorbed into the blood stream, and blocks the animal's cells from utilizing oxygen. FULL STORY »
New initiative aims to provide year-round grazing system
During the spring and summer months, cattle graze on a sea of open pastures across the prairie, then in the fall fields begin to go dormant and ranchers typically substitute hay in place of grazing. This can be a pricey endeavor, but this has been the tried-and-true process used for decades. FULL STORY »
Utilizing cornstalks despite wet weather
Excess rain causes leaching of nutrients available in cornstalks. It also decreases palatability of the crop residue. Lower intakes of a less nutritious feed will result in poorer animal performance. FULL STORY »
Grain storage bags could be solution for some farmers
With record corn crops expected this year, farmers are looking for alternative storage to silos and storage bins to safely store extra crops. FULL STORY »
Sorting cows for more efficient winter supplemental feeding
First calf heifers have historically been the toughest females on the ranch to get rebred. They are being asked to continue to grow, produce milk, repair the reproductive tract, and have enough stored body energy (fat) to return to heat cycles in a short time frame. FULL STORY »
Identifiy and eliminate weeds in hay and pasture fields
Highly productive pastures and hay fields do not happen just by accident. Weed and pest control, nutrient management and properly timed harvests all have their role. FULL STORY »

Why Elizabeth Warren Could Be Good For Honest Businesses
As it appears increasingly unlikely that Elizabeth Warren will be the permanent head of the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, we can reflect on how many of her opponents are actually shooting themselves (and the American people) in the foot.
…over the past century or so, new regulatory initiatives have inevitably been greeted with predictions of doom from the very businesses they eventually helped. Meatpackers hated the Meat Inspection Act of 1906, but it rescued the industry from the aftereffects of the publication of "The Jungle." Wall Street said that the creation of the S.E.C. would demolish stock trading, but the commission helped make the U.S. the world's most liquid and trusted stock market. And bankers thought that the F.D.I.C. would sabotage their industry, but it transformed it by effectively ending bank runs. History suggests that business doesn't always know what's good for it.

The room size is decent , the coffee maker and the free water are appreciated, The breakfast was exceptional as there was a chef to prepare to order as well as thE generous buffet.
Strange that such a high quality hotel did not get CNN or BBC...only "news" in English language "al Jazerra?" Layout of super modern room can be quirky...it all worked but is hard to describe the strange feel or the modernity....bathroom privacy has some merits.
Very nice luxury hotel, great location… Forget the comments about the so-so service, the staff was perfect.

because it hasn't any mistakes
we love it
I recently stayed at Relais San Lorenzo after a long cruise around the Mediterranean where I was visiting a different country every day. The relaxed atmosphere of this hotel was perfect to wind down and relax.
The Italian train system was a challenge for two ladies traveling with way to heavy suitcases, but once we had arrived at our hotel we quickly forgot that travel experience.
Every single thing
It was raining when we got there but lovely umbrellas were provided so even that wasn't a problem
We absolutely loved it.The design is stunning and is located right in the historic center! Rooms and SPA are delightful. Staff was very welcoming. The restaurant's design over Roman ruins is beautiful and the food is amazing; very promising young chef.
The hotel structure is amazing
Staff polite and gentle, but missing passion for hotellerie. I suggest a concierge to better advise guests and find solutions.
After spending one month in Italy, this short stay at San Lorenzo was a refreshing change. Everything is new, modern, clean, and fresh. San Lorenzo is perfectly located in City Alta, making it easy to explore. The staff was extremely accommodating, helping us with several requests and thereby making our visit to Bergamo perfect. For example, we arrived mid afternoon, just when all restaurants close. The San Lorenzo kitchen staff stayed a little longer and prepared us a fine meal.
There was no night light in our room, so I had to use my IPad to guide the way.
The staff at the Relais San Lorenzo is of the rare kind nowadays, they think;) They offered us rooms on the same floor as they saw we were one family, very kind gesture without asking. The restaurant recommendations were superb. Hotel is very new and in the mint condition. And Bergamo is a very beautiful city. Now with this hotel- more reasons to come. Can't wait to be back.
Great location, staff were excellent and good value for money for a 5 star hotel.
The spa was fairly underwhelming (ie. no spa, just steam room).
Situated in a quiet square in the middle of this beautiful old city. The Roman and Renaissance excavations incorporated into the dining room and bar areas. The bus to the airport and train station is only 100m away.
It was a magical time so much so we stayed an extra night
beautiful renovation. Excellent Location
hard to get to. No gym
The location was excellent, so was the architecture of the building and the facilities. The staff was friendly too. The room and the hotel was very clean. The breakfast was top quality though there were few choices. Very good wi-fi speed though the codes expired often and we had to ask for new ones. The spa facilities looked very promising but unfortunately we did not get full access for no reason
We did not get full access to the spa facilities, though it was included in the high price we paid for the room. Instead we had to wait at least 20 minutes so that the hotel staff could prepare (?) the spa facilities and at the end they gave us access only to the relax sauna area, which is really unacceptable. Also when we asked for a massage treatment, they told us there was only one therapist to treat us and it would take one hour for him/her to reach the hotel. There was no sound proof at the rooms' door and we could hear every single thing that was going on in our corridor. Fortunately the hotel was not full.
Location, Ambiance, Restaurant, Friendly staff
Excellent hotel and very unusual location in the middle of Roman remains. Staff very helpful and would certainly go back again.
Nothing.. all was great
The staff
Bergamo old town location is excellent, walking distance to everything.
Access roads to old town and parking bit of a challenge. Navigation couldnt find it and send me against one way streets, so be aware.
The beautiful restaurant where I had delicisous full service breakfast, the food was very good, BUT the restaurant itself was unbelievable looking down on the ancient ruins of the romans never been in such a place before!
All. Especially SPA.
Problems with wifi. Too many times I needed to retype the password. Devices "lost" it.

How to cover school books without getting bubbles

Posted 08 February 2008 - 01:38 PM
Argghh is contact getting crappier these days or what?
DD has 15 books to cover and DS has 8. God help me. I am such a perfectionist and can't stand the bubbles and lines. Any tried and true methods?
Posted 08 February 2008 - 01:39 PM
You just have to go slow and push out all the bubbles.
Posted 08 February 2008 - 01:43 PM
There must be a secret! I do go slow, I use a ruler, DD holds the book and I go slowly, but half the time the contact stuff is just dodgy and gets lines in it.
Please tell me there is a secret.
Posted 08 February 2008 - 01:53 PM
Yes, there is a secret... it is called a plastic book slip!
Doesn't help with bigger books..
When I was a kid Mum used to let us buy wrapping paper and brown paper to wrap our books in. Only the text books got contact.
Posted 08 February 2008 - 01:53 PM
If you do get bubbles use a pin and sort of pop the air out and then flatten it.
Hope that makes sense.

Ok I worked in a library and used to cover millions of books. First cut the contact just a bit bigger than the size of the laid out open book leaving about 3/4 inch all the way around. Fold contact in half then peel back one half of the contact and place spine of book along this folded line in the middle. Turn book over and get a credit card or similar card and push the airbubbles towards each side, then trim the corners and fold over. Peel off otherside of the contact and do the same. If you still have a slight bubble get a pin and prick it lets out the air. Good luck.
Posted 08 February 2008 - 02:10 PM
We would use a ruler and slowly slide the plastic down pressing firmly with the ruler, to help it go down smooth and press out any bubbles.
Posted 08 February 2008 - 02:22 PM
Cut the contact 2cm or so bigger than the book. Peel back 1/2 of the contact & put the middle of the spine in the middle of the contact. Put the book with the side you're going to stick first facing up but holding the contact up in the air so it's not touching the book. Smooth it out along the spine, starting from the middle of the book to the top/bottom. When that's done, have the book how you would if you were reading it. Hold the contact in the air with your right hand, & slowly start from the spine & work your way up & down the book until you get to the edge pushing the contact down. You shouldn't get any bubbles. Turn over & do the same thing to the back of the book. Open the book up & diagonally cut the corners of the contact & also near the spine & along the spine. Fold the edges starting from the middle out. All done! It's not that hard if you do it bit by bit & start from the middle out & then from the middle to the other out. Maybe get someone to hold the contact in the air for you while you're pushing it down if it's too hard to do with 2 hands. Good luck!
Posted 08 February 2008 - 02:38 PM
I use the ruler method! I usually start inside one cover and fold the backing paper back as I edge along with a ruler, but the librarian method of starting at the spine sounds good. I think I will try that next time!
Posted 08 February 2008 - 03:17 PM
I think contact is getting crappier, I have endless trouble contacting books, and I hate this time of year when there are so many of them to do. I always used to do the fold in half work fromt he spine method, but no more, I jhust don't have the coordination. This year, I fold in half, put hte spine in the middle, then peel a little way back on one side, lay a little bit of the book cover on it and stick down (enough to not get bubbles), flip it over and use a ruler to smooth it down as I pull the backing off, all very slow. When you get to the middle, turn the book over and keep going.
Don't know if that makes sense, but basically, I do it all in one direction.
As an aside, Monday this week at 8am, DS2 knocks on the bathroom door, "Mum, can you cover my books?" NO . Honestly, he'd had them since Friday night.
Posted 08 February 2008 - 03:23 PM
Go to a proper stationery store and buy 'library grade' contact. It's that little bit thicker than ordinary supermarket contact and is so easy to use.
Also make sure that when smoothing over with the ruler, that you are not pulling the contact too tightly (to remove backing paper) that it stretches and then won't stick smoothly.
Posted 08 February 2008 - 04:01 PM
I feel your pain...I hate covering books. But I have found some brands of contact are worse than others.
Posted 08 February 2008 - 05:44 PM
no no no ... you have it all wrong!!!
you need a kitchen bench & a water spray bottle.
spray the cupboard with a mist of water where you plan to work, then cut your contact to size, then spray the shiny side of contact with water.
pull off the back paper with the wet shiney side & the wet laminex together.
you will find the wetness stops all the static and it is as easy as covering books with a sheet of paper.
my 4 kids had 8 books each.... i got them all covered in about 2 hours, no swearing and throwing of books, and more importantly.... NO WRINKLES OR BUBBLES!!!
it is seriously amazing :D:D:D:D
Posted 08 February 2008 - 05:49 PM
After many many hissy fits, screwed up balls of contact and a little (lot) of swearing I now cover with paper (coloured or brown paper then add stickers) and then cover again witn a clear plastic, looks really spiffy!
Posted 08 February 2008 - 06:09 PM
ok well i used to be the "queen" of covering books when i was at school ... many moons ago!!
there were two different types of clear contact back then, a cheap and nasty version and a slightly more expensive one, the dearer one is thicker and goes on like a treat!!
1. cut the contact about 1.5cm wider than the book is, before you peel the backing off, fold the contact in half to create a crease that goes down the spine of the book.
2. peel back contact on one side until you reach the crease mark, stand books spine along the crease and roll it down on to the sticky contact, if you are using the dearer contact you should have no bubbles, if you are using cheap and nasty version you may get bubbles.
3. cut corners off contact, snip the contact at the spine on both sides, fold edges of contact onto book.
4. stand book on its spine and pull the backing of the contact on the reverse side and same as before roll front of book onto contact. cut corners off and fold contact edges onto book.
Posted 08 February 2008 - 06:42 PM
Excuse my ignorance, but what's with covering books in contact? This was not something my mother ever did! Won't they survive if you don't?
Posted 08 February 2008 - 06:45 PM

My mum did this for all our books in primary school. She used patterned wrapping paper and then the clear plastic over the top. We had the best looking books in the district, and when the other kid's contact was cracking around the edges at the end of the term ours still looked as good as the day she did it. In fact she's kept some of our old workbooks and they still look great today. She later went back to uni and studied to become a librarian...so all that book-covering practice came in handy

Yep, I do it like stayathomemum and never have a problem at all. Rarely even get one bubble.
Posted 08 February 2008 - 07:49 PM
5*little*ducks may I kiss you????
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
For the first time ever, I have contacted books without bubbles and without me swearing. It was easy as pie and done in half the time. I did not even use a ruler.
Posted 08 February 2008 - 07:57 PM
I just covered 25 books with the method used by just about everyone here although I use a tissue (soft cloth) to smooth.
Might try the wet kitchen bench next time.
Posted 08 February 2008 - 08:03 PM
Remind me of the water thing next year won't you? I've finished all the book covering for this year.
Posted 08 February 2008 - 08:14 PM
Go to a proper stationery store and buy 'library grade' contact. It's that little bit thicker than ordinary supermarket contact and is so easy to use.
I agree with this.
My local newsagent sells contact-type stuff, but it's quite thick and it's much nicer than contact. Sorry I can't be more helpful with a name or brand, but you can ask your newsagent if they sell this stuff.
Posted 09 February 2008 - 01:46 AM
Yeah, go out and buy the expensive stuff. Definitely worth the money. I had terrible luck with the cheap stuff but the 'thick' contact covered flawlessly every time.
Posted 09 February 2008 - 12:29 PM
yes ~♥~Mia~♥~ you may kiss me LMAO happy to be of service
Posted 09 February 2008 - 01:07 PM
Wow, thanks for posting this topic. We have a few books to cover this weekend. DP always cracks it with the contact!

Police fear for safety at old, new HQs
Union wants secure staff parking
Winnipeg's police union says provisions for staff parking around the city's new police headquarters place employees at a continuing risk of harassment, surveillance and attack -- even as the $210-million project improves the perception of safety in the South Portage neighbourhood.
In 2010, the Winnipeg Police Service began allowing officers to carry firearms on their way to and from work as a response to a series of incidents in which off-duty police were assaulted, followed, had their cars vandalized or were otherwise victimized after hours, sometimes by organized criminal gangs.
Criminal gangs have "severely assaulted" off-duty Winnipeg police officers, conducted surveillance on them outside of work and have even shown up at family events in brazen attempts at intimidation, officials say. Police also have complained of being followed to their vehicles. The escalation of these incidents led the service to offer its members rides or escorts to their vehicles, but many refuse.
The problem arose partly due to an absence of secure parking around the Public Safety Building on Princess Street -- a shortage exacerbated by the closure of the Civic Centre Parkade in 2012, when years of deferred maintenance led to an emergency shutdown.
The Winnipeg Police Association, a union representing the vast majority of police officers and civilian employees, says the city has, in spite of warnings, made little effort to ensure staff parking is more secure when the police service moves into its new Graham Avenue headquarters next year.
-- Winnipeg Police Association president Mike Sutherland
"It seems the membership is a typical afterthought," said police association president Mike Sutherland, who has been lobbying the police brass and the city to find secure parking for his members since 2010 -- with what he describes as little success.
"I don't think there was any consideration from the get-go, even though it was no secret to the powers that be in the police service and the government," he said. "Yet here we are, with the building almost complete, yet there are no measures for us."
The Winnipeg Police Service expects more than 1,150 people to work at the new headquarters in the former Canada Post mail-processing facility, which the city purchased in 2009 for $29.25 million and spent the next three years renovating at a cost, to date, of $172 million. Finance charges and fees have taken the total project up to $210 million.
Given that officers work in shifts, the police service estimated it only needs to secure 350 parking spots for its employees, said Sutherland, citing information he was provided.
Last week, the police service offered employees working opposite shifts the chance to double up on $271-a-month underground stalls at the city-owned Millennium Library Parkade or $255-a-month stalls at the Impark-operated Winnipeg Square Parkade, Sutherland said.
The plan would see two officers split the tab, with each being issued a parking transponder that will give access to the parkade -- provided the other transponder isn't in use at the time.
Sutherland said he applauds the service for attempting to provide some form of parking, but called the offer "trying to close the barn door" after the city failed to secure parking for police elsewhere.
While underground lots have security guards, they are not secure enough to prevent police employees from being stalked or ambushed, Sutherland said.
The absence of secure parking will require an expanded SafeWalk program for police employees, especially the civilians who cannot carry weapons, Sutherland said.
He also said many police, especially junior officers, cannot afford the monthly parking charges, which dwarf the $40-a-month rate for stalls at suburban police stations. "Nobody will want to work downtown."
The scarcity of adequate parking for police is not unique to Winnipeg, said city council finance chairman Russ Wyatt (Transcona) -- all Canadian cities with downtown police headquarters have the same problem.
"There's always a challenge in terms of access to parking and secure parking," he said, opining the Millennium Library Parkade should meet the service's needs. "You have a parkade which is right next door, which is underground, heated and connected. So I think there's a potential solution there."
The city's inability to find a better solution is unacceptable, considering the long lead time on the project, countered Charleswood-Tuxedo Coun. Paula Havixbeck. She argues the absence of secure parking is yet another mismanaged aspect of the police headquarters project, which has been plagued by design changes, incomplete designs and $73 million in cost increases, so far.
"I think it's ridiculous. It should have been built into the plan four years ago," she said. "Secure parking is essential. There have been too many incidents of officers getting attacked or having their vehicles attacked."
One of the stated goals of renovating the former Canada Post building into new police headquarters was to improve the perception of safety downtown.
