In a move opposed by north country lawmakers and farmers, the Assembly approved legislation in an 83-53 vote Monday that would grant several rights to workers at all farms: mandatory overtime pay after eight hours a day, collective bargaining and unemployment insurance.
The Farmworker Fair Labor Practices Act now has been introduced at the committee level in the Senate, where it needs approval to become law.
The same bill last was introduced in 2009, when it was passed by the Assembly, 86-58, but died in the Senate without a vote.
Assemblywoman Addie J. Russell, D-Theresa, said Thursday she voted against the act because labor rights could not be extended to undocumented immigrant workers.
She pointed out that much of the labor force in the north country is composed of immigrant workers.
If immigration reform at the federal level eventually allows such workers to be here legally, Mrs. Russell said, she might support the bill.
No amount of laws that you pass are going to improve the plight of farmworkers that arent working under legal status, Mrs. Russell said. The large majority of farmworkers are immigrants, and without leveling the playing field for all workers, you undercut the local workforce. I think the ultimate success in getting these rights is going to be undercut until you provide a legal way for workers to be here.
But Mrs. Russell said she could support labor protections in the future, especially if time demonstrates farmworkers arent being paid what many of our farmers profess they are.
The bill isnt expected to be approved in the GOP-led Senate, she said.
Sen. Patricia A. Ritchie, R-Heuvelton, chairwoman of the Agriculture Committee, said shes going to fight to ensure the bill isnt passed.
As chair of the Senate Agriculture Committee, its a priority for me to support our states hardworking farmers, Mrs. Ritchie said in an email. Farming is New Yorks largest industry, and I am concerned that this legislation would jeopardize the continued success of agriculture, putting jobs at risk and placing a burden on farmers and their families.
The New York Farm Bureau has lobbied against the act, contending the labor rights could result in excessive costs during peak times of the harvest season.
Workers often are needed to work long hours on farms when crops are harvested, but work fewer than 40 hours at other times of the season, said Steve Ammerman, Farm Bureau manager of public affairs. As a result, he said, mandating overtime could cause labor costs to skyrocket when workers are needed the most.
These are things that work well in a factory but not on a farm, because theyre dictated in large part by Mother Nature, Mr. Ammerman said. For example, farmers could see a spell of rain when no workers get on the field, and then get an opportunity to harvest tomatoes when theyre ripe. Workers then may be needed to work more than one day.

How to Buy a Stylus Pen
How to Buy a Stylus Pen
Stylus pens have become a popular accessory over the past few years as touchscreen phones, PDAs and tablets seem to be in everyone's hands. Individuals choose to own Stylus pens for a number of reasons; however, the main reason for their use is to interact with their device without using their fingers. The Stylus pen eliminates the chance of leaving oil and fingerprints on the screen. There are a number of styles and types of Stylus pens available for purchase and choosing the one right for your needs is the start of some serious fun.
Types of Stylus
There are several types of Stylus pens available. These pens do so much more than point to your device. Some can be used for navigating, sketching and even strumming. With endless variations of the Stylus the sky is the limit as to what you can do!
Nib Styluses
The Bib Stylus was the first pen made available. There are several sizes of the Nib Stylus offered, including those of 7 mm and larger, as well as small versions of 6 mm or smaller. Both foam and silicone rubber tips are available on the Nib Stylus. The large Nib Stylus is best used for sketching and is too large to handwrite. The smaller Nib allows definition to be placed in a sketch and is easy to write with. The Nib Stylus comes in a variety of body colors and styles.
Unconventional Stylus
The unconventional stylus is made for playing games, sketching and the such. Some of these unconventional stylus pens offer brush hand bristles for easy painting. An extra tip usually comes with this Stylus so the user can write. Another type of unconventional Stylus pen that you may find is a virtual guitar strumming stylus. With this Stylus pen you can actually use your fingers to strum the guitar. There are also Stylus pens made for children and coloring or drawing. These are only a few of the unconventional Stylus pens that you will find.
Multipurpose Stylus
The multipurpose Stylus is very popular as it allows the user the feature of a ballpoint pen on one end and a Stylus on the other. Some of the pens also offer laser pointers. It is a bit more difficult to use this type of Stylus as it is heavier than other models but this does offer the added benefit of feeling like you are really writing. The typical multipurpose Stylus is equipped with an 8-mm tip. The multipurpose Stylus is available in several colors.
How to Buy a Stylus Pen
Click here to watch a great video that will make it easy to purchase a Stylus pen. In the meantime here are a few considerations to make when purchasing Stylus pens.
- What will you be using the Stylus for? This is important to know before you purchase so that you can obtain a Stylus that meets all of your needs, whether it is playing games or writing notes.
- Is the Stylus compatible with the screen that you have? There are three types of touchscreen technology used. Those are resistive, capacitive and surface Acoustic Wave. Resistive is the most basic of the three, reacting to anything that touches the screen. The Capacitive responds to the electrical characteristics of a finer and is highly responsive. The SAW responds to inaudible sound wave. Most Stylus pens are compatible but you must ensure before you buy!
- Is there a foam or rubber tip? Foam tips are not ideal for writing and you should consider a rubber tip is this is the main objective of your pen.
- Is the Stylus comfortable to use? With the many shapes and sizes of Stylus pens available it is important that one is chosen that ensures your comfort. The larger Styluses are usually easier to hold, though this also depends on the style of the pen.
- How will the Stylus be stored? Most Styluses come with a clip that makes it easier to store and keep track of.
- How much does the Stylus cost? Price is always an important factor when purchasing a Stylus. Prices start at about $5 for a Stylus, but you may want to opt for a Stylus a bit costlier as the cheaper versions may not provide you the best of quality.
Do you need a Stylus?
A Stylus is definitely a great addition to your life if you own a touchscreen device. With their many uses and affordable prices you can comfortably make the purchase with confidence and provide yourself with peace of mind knowing you are getting the most out of your device. Ensure that you look for a quality Stylus and you will be on your way to pure enjoyment.

|Awesome mountain. Absolutely no people and you can tell this is a rarely visited summit (only 8 people had signed the register in June). We only saw one cairn all day but the route is obvious. We went up to the right into a basin to hit the ridge and then came down Nutras Creek the whole way on our descent. We used some snow fields to avoid the loose junk on the lower portions of the ridge to make things easier (no ice axe or crampons needed however, the angle is mild).
