Wages and Me
Students explore the reasons for differences in the wages for several occupations. Then students are guided through the Bureau of Labor Statistics website to find information about their potential careers and wage rates nationally and in their own states.
Demand, Human Capital, Income, Investment, Supply
- Explain that supply and demand are the primary factors in determining wages.
- Identify several specific factors that affect wage rates.
- Explore wage rates in their potential careers.
- Analyze why wage rates in their states may differ from the national average wage for their career.
Would you like to earn a high income? How can you go about achieving that goal? Many factors differentiate wages in a variety of occupations, as well as within the same occupation in different areas of the country. Knowing those factors can give you the information you need to find careers with the income levels you want. Let's find the wage rates in the career you are considering.
Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics Wage Estimates: This website gives students access to wage information for a variety of careers.
Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics U.S. Map: This website gives students access to wage and career information for their own state or US territory, enabling them to make comparisons with the national averages.
Several factors influence wages, including the supply of and demand for labor, the value of the products workers produce, and worker productivity. Workers who are productive and who produce highly-valued products will tend to earn higher wages. One of the most important factors in determining wages is the worker's level of education. The higher the level of education, the more productive the worker tends to be. For this reason, many employers will invest in education and training of their employees, thus raising output and productivity for the firm, and increasing wages and the standard of living for workers.
A number of other factors also affect the wages of workers. Those with natural ability, such as concert musicians and professional athletes, can command a higher wage because of the low supply of workers with this level of ability. Employers will often pay higher wages to entice workers to accept positions with unpleasant aspects, such as midnight shifts, dangerous work, or jobs which require workers to move frequently around the country or world. Wages will often differ based on the cost of living in different regions; for example, the cost of living in California is higher than the cost of living in Indiana, so wages in general in California will be higher than those in Indiana. Derived demand can also affect wages, as the demand for the product will affect the demand for labor and the wages paid to those workers.
Let's find out about the demand and wages for the career you are considering. If you have not yet chosen a career, look at a career that is interesting to you.
1. Click on the following link to open the official web site of the Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics .
2. Click on the link that contains the occupational area you have chosen or are considering. You can also search by state by clicking here .
3. Scroll down through the occupational titles to find the career that most closely matches the career you are considering.
4. Click on the "SOC Code Number", Standard Occupational Classification (SOC), to the left of the name of the occupation. Use the information on that page to answer the questions below.
What occupation did you choose?
[Answers will vary]
Was the job description listed for your chosen profession?
[Answers will vary depending on how student answered question 1.]
About how many Americans are employed in that occupation?
[Answers will vary depending on how student answered question 1.]
What is the mean annual wage for that occupation?
[Answers will vary depending on how student answered question 1.]
What is the annual wage rate for the lowest-paid ten percent of workers in that occupation?
[Answers will vary depending on how student answered question 1.]
What is the annual wage rate for the highest-paid ten percent of workers in that occupation?
[Answers will vary depending on how student answered question 1.]
Visit this website: www.bls.gov/oes/current/oessrcst.htm
and find the mean annual income for that occupation for residents from your state.
[Answers will vary depending on how student answered question 1.]
How does your state's mean annual income for your occupation compare to the national mean annual income for that occupation?
[Answers will vary depending on how student answered question 1.]
If there is a difference, what do you think is the primary reason for that difference?
[Answers will vary depending on how student answered question 1.]
Will you stay in your state for your career, or do you think you will move away? Why?
[Answers will vary depending on how student answered question 1.]
[NOTE: The SOC is the Standard Occupational Classification System. Federal agencies use this system to classify workers into occupations with similar job duties and education levels.
Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) system This system will be used by all Federal statistical agencies to classify workers into occupational categories for the purpose of collecting, calculating, or disseminating data. All workers are classified into one of over 820 occupations according to their occupational definition. To facilitate classification, occupations are combined to form 23 major groups, 96 minor groups, and 449 broad occupations. Each broad occupation includes detailed occupation(s) requiring similar job duties, skills, education, or experience
Some careers are surprisingly missing from the statistics. Others may be listed in categories students may not expect. Some careers, while listed in the national data, may not be listed in state data because too few state residents work in that occupation, or for other reasons. Help students who have difficulty finding data to look under other categories or to choose occupations similar to those actually desired by the students.]
The forces of supply and demand are key to determining wage rates in our society. By learning how these and other factors affect the wages in your potential career, you can make wise choices regarding your education, skill development, and location, to maximize your potential income.

Nice clean apartment in a great neighborhood. George is an awesome guy and a dependable host, he gave us much information on the city and you could tell he really thought about how to make his guests feel welcome right from the start.
A+ location. Apartment in the middle of Le Marais, very close to Centre Pompidou and about 5 minutes walk from the nearest metro station. Located directly next to a supermarket which is opened on weekdays till 22:00, really awesome if you want to stock up on some food or drinks. If you want to skip on the many restaurants in Le Marais, cooking is totally possible in this apartment, the kitchen is simple but complete.
The apartment is located on the 5th floor, which means walking stairs is a reality you'll have to face. However, if you don't have much luggage this is really not a problem and the benefits of this apartment far outweigh this little downside for most people.
George is a wonderful person and the appartment is realy beautiful in the heart of Paris. Is very small and if you have very big and heavy bag it cant be a problem to take it upstairs but i recomend it .
George was a great host! We stayed in Paris during 4 days and he recommended us many places to visit the first day. He let us do the check in earlier and he was very kind from the very beginning. The last day we could also stay in the apartment more than we expected! We are very happy to have chosen this apartment during our stay in Paris! Although it is small, it is sufficient for a couple and it is near the centre of the city.
Excelent flat! In the center, we spend a very good weekend. George is a fantastic owner. He'll help you very sure if you want. We'll come back
We loved the flat and lokation of it. It's small and cozy and perfect for a short trip to Paris, since it's really central you can start your sightseeing on foot :)
The apartment is very nice & perfect located. Next to the apartment you can find a supermarket, nice restaurants and bars. It takes 15 minutes to reach Notre Dame.
Kalia is very nice. She helped us every time during our stay :) I can really recommend on the apartment!
Very nice and cosy little appartment on the 4th floor without elevator in a great area, le Marais. We felt very welcomed by George, who had some great tips. We would like to recommend this place. Not for people who need luxury, but totally fine for people who look for a nice , quiet, cosy place in Paris, close to a lot of high lights.
George was very welcoming and answered all questions timely. Flat was well equipped and very clean. He gives a lot of personal touch and attention for guests, he bought me a birthday present for instance as I had it on check out day, much appreciated.
Very nice apartment in a great location. Wifi works very well. Stairs are quite narrow, so you have to be able to climb stairs. All in all a nice place to spend some time in Paris. George is very helpful and gives great tips.
Amazing ! My mother and me spend in George 's and kalia' s Apartment unfortunately only 2nights, but everything was really fine. We had a perfect email conversation and a nice welcome on Paris with many advises for Not allday Tourist activities, thanks George again for everything and See you perhaps soon.

I can't really tell you, as I have used it before it went bad - but I don't use it too often.
I keep opened jars in the fridge though.

Re: Tahini
If you're planning on keeping it for ages between uses, pour in a bit of olive oil to form a seal across the top. We've had a jar in the fridge for months now, I only ever use a little bit when making hummous.

Re: Tahini
I am not sure that you even need the olive oil, as tahini tends to separate with the oil on top. So there really is a layer of oil sealing it already I think....

This weeks theme for Aussie Curves was "Pastels". I cant say my skin tone has ever truly complemented pastels, however in recent years i have learnt to accept my skin tone and break into pastels slowly but surely.
On my Thailand trip i was a little unsure exactly what to wear to the wedding. I knew it was going to be quite casual with the groomsmen wearing local traditional Thai attire, however i had no idea what colours the bridal party were wearing. So i opted for an above the knee dress with a crochet cardigan and espadrille wedges! I love it when i can create an outfit with layers, meaning i have a few different pieces i can wear again rather than one dress that i might only ever wear once more! I also thrifted a lace slip to layer underneath the dress to ensure that it was not too short, now looking at the photos I'm fairly sure it actually look like part of the dress.
And might i add that this just might be the most beautiful location i have ever photographed for my blog, simply stunning and we even (as a group) got to watch the sunset whilst the bride and groom frolicked the beach for pretty pictures!

Anthrax spores are formed by anthrax bacteria that occur naturally in soil in most parts of the world. The spores can remain dormant for years until they find their way into a host. Common hosts for anthrax include wild or domestic livestock, such as sheep, cattle, horses and goats.
Although rare in the United States, anthrax is still common throughout the developing world, such as in Iran, Iraq, Turkey, Pakistan and sub-Saharan Africa.
Most human cases of anthrax occur as a result of exposure to infected animals or their meat or hides. In the United States, a few people have developed anthrax while making traditional African drums from the skins of infected animals.
One of the few known instances of nonanimal transmission occurred in the United States in 2001 when 22 people developed anthrax after being exposed to spores sent through the mail. Five of those who were infected died.
More recently, 54 heroin users in Europe contracted anthrax through injecting illegal drugs. Eighteen people died from injectable anthrax. Heroin sold in Europe likely comes from areas where naturally occurring anthrax is more common.

Plenty of 'uns' to add to 'Unsession' list
Gov. Mark Dayton said he wants to make 2014 an "Unsession." That is fitting since we already have an "Unready" new state insurance program and an "Unpopular" push to unionize childcare providers.
And we haven't even mentioned "Undoing" the burdensome new tax increases Minnesotans are facing because of Dayton and fellow Democrats.
Flaws within the new state-run insurance program – MNsure – continue to emerge leading up to the Oct. 1 start date. Concerns over data privacy were especially heightened after a recent data breach, when the private information of around 2,400 Minnesotans was made public through a staffer's errant email. Social Security numbers were included in that email. Now, internal MNsure documents have surfaced which warn of "an abnormally high risk of a data breach <http://www.minnpost.com/sites/default/files/attachments/mnsure-complianc..." during the exchange's first six months.
How bad is it? MNsure officials are advising Minnesotans not to rush to join when the program starts.
Around $150 million of our tax dollars have been spent on creating MNsure bureaucracy, without any of that money going toward the things that matter, like pediatric check-ups, preventative screenings for women or prescriptions for the elderly. Some $9 million has even been spent on an ad campaign geared toward making Paul Bunyan look like a "doofus "by smashing his crotch on a tree and suffering other great calamities.
But don't rush to join MNsure, they say, and I agree. There is no guarantee this program can provide the three things Minnesotans care about most in health care: accessibility, affordability and privacy.
As for the push to unionize childcare providers, a judge has halted a vote on childcare provider unionization. The judge is awaiting a U.S. Supreme Court ruling on a similar push in Illinois. It is good the judge upheld this injunction petition, but we are not yet in the clear.
Rep. Mark Anderson,
Lake Shore

The link to the red band trailer is here. It's a studio-released preview approved for restricted audiences, and there is brief nudity in the clip. The original "safe for work" trailer is below:

White Wednesday
Since I'm keeping it indoors this year, I wanted to give it a Frenchy touch, so I printed out this great image from The Graphics Fairy's DIY blog. At first I was going to stencil it on using graphite paper but being in a lazy mood, I chose to Mod Podge it on instead. I distressed the edges ever so slightly for an aged look.
Right now it's on my dining room table displaying my little cloches and Easter eggs.
I really love this graphic!

A Banded Gear A-1 Slough Stool means you'll never have to kneel, sit or stand along the shoreline again while out on a hunt. This stool provides the comfort of sitting in a large boat or duck hunting blind, but has great portability. An angle iron construction is sturdy enough for the toughest hunts. The poles in combination with the stabilizing feet keep you planted and seated nicely in the slough or on shore. These seats are adjustable to fit the smallest and largest hunters, and go from 26.5 to 34 inches tall. An over-sized padded seat measures 7.75x12 inches. The stool does not have a back, so it allows swinging on birds and talking to your buddies.

On the Beach in the Bahamas

- Or, a Four-Night ($1,299) or Six-Night ($1,949) Stay for Up to Six Guests in a Two-Bedroom Oceanfront Suite
The Destination
When Spanish explorers claimed Grand Bahama Island and christened it "Gran Bajamar," meaning "Great Shallows," they barely skimmed the surface of the island's allure. The same reefs that provided 17th century pirates with prime plundering grounds now offer modern guests treasure of the underwater sort—fish whose colors rival the gold and jewels of yesteryear's buccaneers darting amid coral and shipwrecks. Equal parts colonial charm and bikini-worthy beaches, West End, Grand Bahama Island, tempts travelers to explore its depths with world-class diving; bone, deep-sea, and reef fishing; duty-free shopping; and simple relaxation.
The Digs
The suites at Old Bahama Bay Resort exemplify breezy Bahamian luxury, pairing British colonial furnishings with modern amenities like whirlpool tubs in marble bathrooms, stainless steel kitchenettes, and wireless Internet—all just steps from the beach. The view of the yachts dotting the harbor beckon visitors to North Beach, where you'll have free use of kayaks, paddleboards, bikes, water toys, snorkel equipment, and lazy hammocks to while away the afternoon however you like. Move freely between the sandy surf and the oceanfront freshwater pool, stopping for tropical drinks at Teaser's Tiki Bar and enjoying dinners at The Dockside Bar & Grille.
The Diversions
• Stuart Cove's
• Port Lucaya Marketplace

Passed eCPPT!
The exam wasn't difficult. If you've studied the material thoroughly, you should be able to pass it easily. What I found challenging was writing the report, especially since I'm still an undergraduate student (6 months left) and this was my first 'penetration test report'. The reporting guide which you get along with the course contents was very valuable in structuring the report. I advice anyone giving the exam to read it very carefully. I also used some other reporting guides which can all be found here

Thanks Don for the giveaway and all the EHNet members for all the wonderful posts here which I always found useful.
I'm extra happy since it's my first professional certificate

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
This is my first train but I'm in! Chocolate croissants all around and I'm shopping my stash since I know a few people who would like these for the holiday season. Can't wait to get started!
irishrose either would be fine, but your fabrics are really pretty the way they are....in my opinion.
Blocks sent boom water http://www.quiltingboard.com/members...44-albums.html
Blocks received http://www.quiltingboard.com/members...44-albums.html
Batik blocks swap http://www.quiltingboard.com/members...44-albums.html
Just got home so will have to go shop that stash on the morning. Don't think I have the oomph to do it tonight. Too much driving - helped set up booth at North Texas Irish Festival in Dallas on Thursday/Friday and then worked Sherwood Forest Faire near Austin Saturday and today. Think I put about 650 miles or so on my truck since Thursday morning.
I,m ready for the train ride. A table runner is a quick and easy project --so I can still work on others. I loved the results of the last ride. Now to pick out my colors--no need for shopping. I,ve got a piece of Birthday cake here for everyone also.
Jaba...love, love, love that first set. The second set is interesting, can't wait to see it together.
Okay, I am onboard for this, have to go pick out my fabrics. It is a pleasure doing a small but useful project. I like the idea of a reversable one. As much as I like a full size quilt it isn't easy for me to quilt on my machine. I made some japanese pancakes for breakfast, I have killer clam chowder simmering for later and lemon coconut cookies for dunking in tea. Love all the fabrics so far.
I'm on board again but will have to catch up later in March as I am on a 2 week vacation. First week in Florida (and with my luck, has been unseasonably cold for March) and next week - St. Kitts! Let's hope it will be warmer there...
I love table runners and make them frequently for gifts so I have plenty of fabric on hand when i get back and look forward to the next clue.
The focus, left to right, has to stay, others can be swapped out. Rather dull for me but it's a gift for son and he's not really into the pink florals.
Hello everyone. I would love to join this train ride. I have not done any of the others, yet. Do I sign up somewhere? I am not sure how this works. I love everyone's fabrics.
Cleveland, OH

This was the second time we stayed in this appartment. The appartement is very nice and has a beautiful view from the balcony, overlooking the whole of Lisbon. Nuno is a very gentle host. The appartment is fully equipped and nicely renovated! It is a big of a climb, but that is good for burning calories after all the good food Lisbon has to offer. We can definately recommed to stay here for a few days or a whole week!
Nice flat, very clean and all you need in bathroom and kitchen. We did like the flair at the balcony, there you can feel the spirit of the town. Nuno is very friendly. Thank you for the nice time in Lisboa
Wonderul appartment in Graça with a nice view. It is quiet and has enough space for a family or two couples. Kitchen is okay, the beds are good and the small bathroom is fine. It is located pretty close to Tram 28 and only a 15 minute walk to Martim Moniz. We liked our stay there a lot.
Our stay in Nuno's apartment was amazing. The location is great (2 metrostations very near). We took a taxi to the apartment (about 18 euros), and he met us there, and let us in. It was very spacious, clean, exactly like the photos, plus the extra of an amazing view. Definitely coming back here!
A very nice flat - perfect for two couples or a family with two children (not too small children because you have to get up a very steep hill just before the flat). Beautiful view from the living room and balcony! Everything was very clean and tidy.
We walked into the city centre (about 15 minutes to Praca Figueira) and only used the metro once or twice. Just down the hill there is a square with cafés (Largo is a good one to have breakfast at the weekends) and the restaurant Ramiro (very popular) is just next to the square.
Just a few remarks on what could be easily improved concerning the flat: a mirror in one of the bedrooms and a trash can in the bathroom. We also had trouble with the key of the front door - I would change the lock sometime...
Very nice and clean apartment near the metro Line Intendente. Lovely little balcony with a beautiful view especially when the Sun sets in the evening. Close to metro, bus and tramline. 10-15 minutes walk to the city center of Lisbon and Rua Augusta. There is a supermarket ( Lidl) 200 meters from the apartment.
The apartment is located on the top of a small but very steep hill, so it can be a tough walk up to the apartment.
We only saw Nuno at the day of our arrivel, but he was helpful through e-mail, and available throughout the whole day, if we had any questions.
The only thing is that the head pillows are either very hard and high, or very low and soft. Maybe a pillow in between would be nice. But all in all we had a very nice
stay, and the apartment is highly recommendable. We wouldn't hesitate to rent the apartment another time, if we one day are going to Lisbon again.
Michael and Michéle from Denmark
Very nice apartment (once you get up the hill..:)) !!Thanks, Nuno, for calling a taxi for us. We arrived at the airport in time...had a wonderful stay in Lisboa.
We had a great time in Lisbon. The appartement is very nice and has a beautiful view from the balcony, overlooking the whole of Lisbon. Nuno is a gentle host. The appartment is fully equipped and nicely renovated! It is a big of a climb, but that is good for burning calories after all the good food Lisbon has to offer. We can definately recommed to stay here for a few days or a whole week!
Nice location, beautiful view and fully renovated rooms. Bit of a steep climb up, but for us it was on walking distance from the centre.
Look no further, you can't possibly do better than Nuno's apartment in Lisbon, it is just beautiful. I stayed for 2 1/2 weeks so my experience was a thorugh one. Communication with Nuno and checking in was excellent. The apartment is modern (new I think) and tastefully decorated. It is spacious with two bedrooms and two comfortable double beds, and is really quiet, you will not hear a sound and will sleep so well. There is a small balcony and an inspiring view over the warm red-tiled roofs of Lisbon, that just lifts you up all the time. It was too cold in February to sit on the balcony so I really envy those of you staying in warmer months - please raise a glass of wine for me! The area of Graca is also excellent. I loved Graca withs its miradors - the one by the church has a kiosk serving drinks and the best sunset view in Lisbon - Graca has great restaurants, bakeries, and cafes. Try the Via Graca restaurant just a couple of 100 yrds away from the apartment for excellent service and views and good food too! There is also a great small restaurant (I forget the name - sorry!) and also a takeaway by the Tram stop (the restaurant is opposite the stop). Graca has a real authentic village feel and is relaxed and friendly, I would have been happy to just holiday there. The legendary 28 Tram from Graca will bring you up and down the hill to visit the rest of Lisbon. If you have not been to Lisbon - go, Now! It is a beautiful city with perhaps the friendliest people in Europe. I totally recommend Nuno's apartment. I will go back. It is not an apartment you simply want to go back to, it is an apartment you really wish to go back to! I will recommend it to my family and friends... and I really hope I will get to return before long! As they say in Portugal... Obrigado!!!

School Teacher victim description of some San Mateo County Deputies
Original post made by Michael G Stogner, another community, on Dec 29, 2012
"a group of noticeably drunk, foul-mouthed men walked up to play a game of pool next to where we were playing. We tried to make small talk with them, but they didn't seem to be very friendly. After one of them kept loudly spouting profanities, one of the other men advised his friend, "don't get us kicked out." I noticed at one point in the night that a sheriff in uniform had joined the group. "Good," I thought "maybe he's telling them to behave." Nope. He must have been a friend from work."

Were Deputy Sheriffs DJ Wozniak, Robert Pronske, Michael Guidotti, or Leo Capovilla part of the group? Has any news organization reported the names of the loud and obnoxious group of deputies who were there? If not, why not? Come on Almanac, get to work!

You won't find this story in the San Mateo County Times either, It's not newsworthy i guess.
This crime was solved with one phone call. No investigation needed

Michael, you are wrong. The fellow was arrested for grand theft, but the article is silent about whether DA Stephen Wagstaffe has filed any criminal charges. Only he can. I'm sure based on his past behavior he is hoping for no press coverage so he can sweep this under the rug. This should be front page news. The should reflect very negatively on Greg Munks who hired thus roadhouse bully. Wagstaffe is complicit in all of this. There should have been immediate criminal charges filed.

I'm often pretty jaded about some of the idiots reporting on Patch who think that they're journalists (one involved in dog rescue particularly comes to mind). This article, written by the victim, is however an example of what Patch does very well - giving voice to those who otherwise would be shut down by mainstream media. This incident reminds me of the one this past summer where a dog was shot on its own property by the stupid SM Co deputy. I'm not sure how far the dog owner has gotten w/her complaint, but she's done an admirable job trying to get the word out via Patch.
What kind of leadership can we expect from a sheriff & undersheriff who get busted for going to an illegal bordello (when there were legal ones just a few miles away)? Apparently, this is the kind of leadership we get. Do we deserve better if we elected Munks?
I'm glad that at least in this case his instrument was recovered & the thief has gotten into trouble.

Pretty sad display by law enforcement officers. Unfortunately, due to the Peace Officers Bill of Rights, we'll never know if they receive any discipline. The only person that we MIGHT hear about is Hatt and that is only because he has been booked on criminal charges. Those are public record. Given Wagstaffe's past practice, I doubt he'll actually be prosecuted.
Frankly I'm shocked that a deputy was there participating in that display in uniform. There are no regulations against drinking in uniform?

One of the other officers present was Russell Schermerhorn. He was the one whose receipt was brought up at the hotel, from which we discovered a sheriff was responsible. DA Karen Guidotti is representing me. She's married to a Sheriff. This sounds like a conflict of interest to me. I wish they would talk to me about it. I feel left in the dark. Anybody out there a lawyer? Thanks.
a resident of another community
on Jan 23, 2013 at 8:41 am
Yes, Karen Guidotti's husband Michael Guidotti has been with the San Mateo Sheriff's office for decades. To the Almanac editors, this can be confirmed by a simple Google search where you will find an article about Michael Guidotti's years of service to the S.M Sheriff's office.
Of course this is a conflict of interest but that's never stopped the San Mateo District Attorney's office before this.

This is a very disturbing story.
It shows that people from all backgrounds and occupations are capable of making horrifying poor decisions. That a uniformed deputy would do this to a citizen who was quietly enjoying his evening is truly upsetting. I'm sure his fellow deputies are not pleased with the way his behavior reflects on their department.
I hope this deputy pays dearly for his boorish behavior.

Yes, using SSNs as IDs is a worrisome practice, but the agency we are dealing with is not going to change this policy, at least in the near term.

However, there will be ongoing updates that will require match merges based on the SSN, along with the addition of new cases to the population.

I can't answer about encrypting variables, but I would be interested in knowing how others in the Stata user community are approaching this, how they are adapting the ways in which they use Stata to meet the demands of their institutions' data-protection or privacy-protection policies. For example, if it is used as a client application with a database residing on a server elsewhere on campus, I assume that there wouldn't be any unexpected glitch using Stata with the various protocols for tunneling ODBC traffic. And I assume that policy would require users to be trained in proper procedure, but are institutions requiring Stata be "qualified" in some respect before allowing its use on privacy-protected data?

Re: sticky toffee pudding
You are prehatingtge oven, I assume?
You need to check the temperature of your oven - itsounds more like it is drying out rather than baking!
Just buy a cheap oven thermometer, and check that the temperature you set on the dial is correct.

Excellent location. Stick your head out of the window and you can see into St. Mark's Square. Amply equipped with dishes and linens. Only problem is that the sofa bed in the living room is heavily infested with either fleas or bedbugs. The two regular beds had no such problem.

great location, ideal for 4, 6 a challenge
perfect place, clean, nice location and good and kind organisation of the host.
The Gold-Apartment kept all its promises: it is ideally located in a quiet road and only a few minutes from the vaporetto stop of Ca d'Oro. The apartment is smaller than the pictures on Wimdu might suggest, but it is modern, good colours and furniture (quality beds!), very clean and all the appliances /apparatus worked well.
We were 2 couples occupying the appartment over 5 nights and very happy with our selection. The only point to mention: hard to believe that 6 people would share this appartment - much too small in our opinion.
This turned out to be a terrific location—just what we were looking for! Far enough away from the touristic areas yet great access to all the water bus lines and close to local food markets, too. Since we were traveling before arriving, and we were without a phone, too— we were not able to make contact until the evening of our arrival. With the kind help of the upstairs neighbor who lent us her phone, we were in the apartment within the hour and everything was ready to go. Delightful stay!
This flat was perfect for our 3 day stay. Great location and great hosts. Valentina was very prompt with her replies and Marco was extremely helpful when he checked us in to the flat and recommended a close by restaurant. We went back for dinner the next night. We would stay here again for sure.
A truly Biennale appartment: just around the corner of the Giardini and the Arsenale, but also in walking distance to other pavillons in the city, the collaterali and the museums. The apartment is situated in a still calm and popular neighbourhood with a couple of nice and popular places to go (for breakfast, lunch and dinner).
I don't want to be fussy, but there's a very unpleasant smell in the bathroom and the reception and cleaning fee is a bit over the top. BUT the receptionist provided us with a very good map of Venice! And the apartment is clean and tidy.
Apart from that: Everything was fine with us. I definitely recommend this apartment especially to art lovers and in general to travelers looking for an accomodation which is not very far from all the gorgeous places in Venice but far enough 'off the beaten track'.
The location of the flat is very good. It is close to the boat stop and to a walking area as well.
The arrangement of the flat is appropriate. The bedrooms are separated from the kitchen and from the bathroom.
The beds are comfortable the kitchen is well equipped.
In a nutshell we were very pleased with this appartement and can recommend it as a good accommodation.
Peter Kövecses from Hungary
The flat is very confortable, and extremelly well situated, at the heart of venice. Marco (Valentina assistant) who received us is very efficient and polite. For sure a good choice.

But rather than present just another adorable depiction of the March sisters, 2nd Story Theatre has come up with quite a novel take, thanks to Bob Colonna's direction of his imaginative adaptation (through December 11).
It's being billed as a special holiday event, since the story begins with an act of typical kindness: one Christmas morning their mother Margaret, whom they call Marmee (Rae Mancini), learns that a nearby destitute family has nothing to eat, and the girls willingly give up their holiday breakfast, marching down the road with their steaming Christmas gifts.
Colonna's thoughtful staging allows for a striking and entertaining image from that freezing family's home, which being incidental is normally never depicted: the children's heads, all in a shivering row, blanket pulled to chins. That works because it takes hardly more than a finger snap of time before the ensemble reassembles into a new configuration.
What keeps this production so lively is that flexibility. As announced on a banner before the action begins, with the cast milling about and chatting, this is a community theater presentation "of selected passages" of the novel, with Miss Alcott herself (Elise Arsenault) occasionally narrating and playing cameo bits. Proceeds are to benefit the Concord School of Philosophy (the Rev. Mister Bronson Alcott, Founder).
Although there are plenty of long, fully developed scenes, especially in the second act, the staging device propels the action with brief exchanges when longer ones aren't required. Beth (young, Kimberly Dalton; older, Erin Sheehan) has a passion for music, which is established when we first see her with a worn paper and box-cardboard piano keyboard on her lap. Feisty, hot-tempered Jo (Sara D'Angelos, Kristina Drager), mutters,"I can't get over my disappointment at not being a boy," and we have her pegged. Oldest daughter Meg (Sophie Cram, Allison Crews), 16 at the beginning, is the beauty of the lot and the most responsible. Amy (Patricia Kinnane, Valerie Westgate) is the youngest and most childish, blossoming into the most fun-loving when they get older. The actors switch in the second act, the time transition being that their mother is still away nursing their father, a chaplain wounded in the Civil War.
Meg and Jo, being the two oldest, are the first to enter fine society, their introduction being a neighbor's dance. Not being as sociable as her sister, Jo remains a wallflower until she is rescued by an equally nervous Theodore Laurence (Evan Kinnane, Nicholas Thibeault), who is called Laurie. He is in the care of his wealthy grandfather and, with no more than the old man for company, he becomes attached to Jo as a friend. Putting aside her antisocial pose, Jo is fascinated by the unpretentious 16-year-old world traveler and his milieu. (She gazes around in awe in his grandfather's library as the ensemble turns into furniture and books.)

Good post and I'm so glad to hear I'm not the only one that has a hard time centering these flats!!
Well sorta, at least in the eyes of alphabet guy's.
I received Stitckerman's bending jig Friday, so I spent yesterday afternoon bending up 7 flats.
6 Tapco's and 1 FAC I've had hanging around for a while. All 7 came out perfect.
Stickermans jig does a fabulous job bending these flats, however setting them up is a royal pain in the kiester.
Setting them up by measuring is very time consuming and frustrating (have you ever tried to move something .002?)
On top of that, once you finally have it perfect, it changes when you tighten the plate.
After doing the first 3 by measurement, I decided to drill the jig to use locating pins.
After carefully locating a flat, I drilled the jig center piece for pins, what a relief, the last 4 went very quickly, and were right on the money.
Bending 7 flats, does not make me an expert on the subject, but I have a couple of observations as a guy whose been there, done that.
After seeing how much force is required to start the initial bend, I'm very leary of DPH's new jig base design,
His die looks very robust, even more so than stickermans, (although his works perfectly) but the base concerns me.
I would be afraid that the angle iron would tend to splay after a few bends, it appears to be only 1/4" stock, and with those huge notches on either end, there is nothing to hold the two sides parallel.
I don't know this as fact, it's pure speculation on my part.
Judging by how hard I worked my press, I would say it takes at least a couple of tons of pressure to start the bend.
I do like their full height center section, and that it's threaded instead of having to fumble with nuts.
I'm not sure why stickerman does not have locating pins on the jig itself. There are a couple of undersized pin holes on the bottom plate to get you in the ballpark, but man, it's a big freakin park when you're working in thousandths.
I know both of these are new products, and will certainly be refined as time and experience go on, both are proven performers.
But as they sit right now, I would say the ultimate bender would be DPH's die in stickermans base.
Good post and I'm so glad to hear I'm not the only one that has a hard time centering these flats!!
max how do you bend the top rails with stickmans jig.those flats you bent look great.also what will you do for heat treat? great job! rick
So , as I understand it, you drilled two 1/8" holes in the die in the areas of the alignment holes on the flats and then put two roll pins in them. Is that about right?
That's the kind of feedback I wanted to hear. I'll make some changes on the next ones. Threading the holes instead of using nuts will take longer to make though. Maybe just tack welding the nuts on would work?
The pins I sent were .1093" and the holes in the flats are .120" I have a piece or two of .120" drill blank and the right bit so I'll try one to see if it centers up right on the two flats I haven't bent yet.
It's nice to see pictures that somebody else has taken of the one I built
stickerman i would like to buy one of your jigs i emailed you for info.the jigs look great let me know how to pay and time frame for del. thanks i just checked my email ill send mo on tuesday let me know how much and were to send thanks rick
Looks great! I thought once you bolted the flat down on the jig it took out all the guess work of measuring? They look awesome!
I start the upper rail bend with a super high tech tool I designed. lolOriginally Posted by mike
I ground and polished the head of a H-D head bolt, it works good to get the bend started.
Then I use a hammer and a block of steel to finish the bend.
I have a Mapp/Oxy torch for heat treating.
More or less.Originally Posted by Chiroone
The pin holes in the flats are .120 I opened them up to 1/8" (.125)
Drilled two .125 holes in the center section about .500 deep, opened up the holes in the plate to .125
Then used two 1/8" drill bits to align the flat while I tightened the the plate.
Then removed the bits.
The plate locks the flat in place nicely, so the pins are only needed for alignment.
,Originally Posted by Cephus
When I got the jig the first thing I did was polish the inside of the base with 400 wrapped around a wooden block.
I'm not saying this is necessary, it probably would have worked just fine right out of the box, but I decided, why not, it can't hurt.
I also lubed the inside of the base as well as the flat.
The pressing itself went very smoothly.

Fire shuts Kah-Nee-Ta lodge; rest of resort open
Warm Springs facility suffers fire, water damage
WARM SPRINGS, Ore. - A fire broke out in the kitchen area of the lodge at Kah-Nee-Ta Resort & Spa on the Warm Springs Indian Reservation late Thursday afternoon and spread to the attic area, causing extensive fire and water damage and forcing closure of the resort's lodge for an undetermined time, authorities said.
On Friday, General Manager Carlos Smith said aside from the lodge, everything else was open for business.
"I think it's too early to start canceling reservations," Smith said. "We have great weather, and obviously the resort is in operation right now. We just need to get the kitchen fixed at the lodge."
Close to 400 guests were evacuated and moved to other hotels over a wide area Thursday.
The only reported injury was a cook who suffered second-degree burns to his arm as he grabbed a fire extinguisher and tried to put out a grease fire that may have started the blaze, Warm Springs Fire Chief Dan Martinez told NewsChannel 21 Thursday night. The employee was taken to St. Charles-Madras for treatment.
"The sprinkler system activated in the kitchen area, and as a result we had to turn the power off" in that location, Martinez said.
As firefighters began venting upstairs to make sure the blaze was out, "we thought we could keep the lodge open," the fire chief said. But "the fire spread up to the attic venting system, which caused the beams to catch on fire, so we had to climb on the roof to ventilate it and had to turn off more power to the main lodge."
With the sprinklers deactivated, they had to shut down the lodge and soon learned "a lot of water ended up going down the (power) conduit, which got into the panel boxes, the breaker switches," Martinez said.
About 360 people were evacuated out of the lodge, though the fire chief stressed that "the guests were never threatened, we just had to turn the power grid off."
"It's kind of disappointing for them," he said. "We had 260 cheerleaders out there. They're fine - they're out at the golf course."
Kah-Nee-Ta announced around 8:45 p.m. that the lodge would be shut for four days, but Martinez said he believed it could take up to a week for clean-up and restoration of services to the point where the facility can reopen.
Meanwhile, taxis and vans were called in to help take the evacuated guests to other hotels and motels to the south or north.
"We apologize for the inconvenience, but we've got to think of the safety of the power grid and employees," Martinez said.
About 25 to 30 firefighters were called out, including Jefferson County Fire District No. 1 crews brought in on mutual aid to help Warm Springs crews, who also tackled a couple of small brushfires on the reservation around the same time, Martinez said.
After hours spent climbing stairs and working on the lodge roof in temperatures hitting 103 degrees, "We've got a lot of tired firefighters," the chief said.
While the cook reported a grease fire, Martinez said they have some investigation work to do: "It could have been a defective venting," he said. "It may have been a substantial radiated heat type of fire. All the (kitchen) vents are protected by sprinkler systems, so it was above the sprinkler system that caught on fire, which was really odd."
Damages are being initially estimated at $150,000 to $175,000.
"We had to cut through the roof," Martinez said. "The water damage is just extensive, mainly to the kitchen, the upstairs, the main lobby section, conference rooms with standing water - lots of water damage. We've got a cleaning crew out there now."
The resort also was working to get a refrigeration unit in to store $50,000 worth of perishables delivered earlier in the day, along with generators for the areas without power, the fire official said.
Late Thursday night, the resort posted a note to its Facebook page indicating the main lodge is without power or phone service and will be closed for four days, but that Village rooms, teepees, the RV park, village pool, golf course and spa remain open.
Phone service is expected to be restored Friday morning, and Kah-Nee-Ta said they will call all guests with affected reservations.
Also still operating as normal: Indian Head Casino, which was moved from Kah-Nee-Ta to a new facility along Highway 26 in recent years.

James B. Glattfelder:
Who controls the world?
James Glattfelder studies complexity: how an interconnected system — say, a swarm of birds — is more than the sum of its parts. And complexity theory, it turns out, can reveal a lot about how the world economy works. Glattfelder shares a groundbreaking study of how control flows through the global economy, and how concentration of power in the hands of a shockingly small number leaves us all vulnerable.

Very Nice room, facilities are quite new. And Michael is really a perfect host. If you tell him what you want to see/do, than he will recommend you the perfect place to go. So we had a very good stay.
Thanks for the pleasant stay in the Central Residence.
We had a good contact with Michael and he was very nice.The rooms were clean and comfortable. Only we had a little problem when we wantend to go home and where in the hurry because we had to catch the train at seven o'clock in the morning. There was somebody in the bathroom who stays there very long. At last we knocked on the door and after several knocks and asks, he came out. It seems he had slept in the shower, because the shower was not used!
Staying at the Green-Residece in Frankfurt has been a nice experience. Rooms are very confortable: Large (almost 20 m2) with all necessary stuff (bed, desck, chairs, etc.). There are 2 shared bathrooms (actually, I would suggest Michael to have a propre shower also in the smaller bad) and a shared kitchen. The place is clean and stylish. It is also close to the railway station and the S-Bahn station. Reaching Frankfurt centrum is an easy 10min trip. Prices for rooms are also chip. I stayed in Michael place for 1 mounth kocking my loved spaghetti and everithing was very good. So, I strongly reccomend this place!
Great host.
