ITHACA, NY — The Park Center for Independent Media at Ithaca College has announced that its fourth annual Izzy Award for outstanding achievement in independent media will be shared by a journalist who reported firsthand on the Tahrir Square uprising in Egypt and a public interest newsgroup that probed efforts by a corporate-funded organization to generate state and federal legislation.
The award will be presented to Sharif Abdel Kouddous and to the Center for Media and Democracy (CMD) during a ceremony at the college on Tuesday, April 10. Kouddous and CMD executive director Lisa Graves will each speak at the ceremony; details on the time and location of the event will be announced at a later date.
The Izzy Award is named after dissident journalist I.F. "Izzy" Stone, who launched his muckraking newsletter "I.F. Stone's Weekly" in 1953 during the height of the McCarthy witch hunts. Stone, who died in 1989, exposed government deceit and corruption while championing civil liberties, racial justice and international diplomacy.
Sharif Abdel
Kouddous covered the 18-day Tahrir Square uprising of Egyptians against dictatorship and the upheaval that followed as a correspondent and senior producer for "Democracy Now!" The Izzy Award judges noted that, "With breathtaking bravery, Sharif's unflinching on-the-street reporting simultaneously brought us the voices and faces of Egyptians, the drama of the moment and big-picture analysis — sometimes while tear gas or live rounds exploded in the background."
An HBO documentary, "In Tahrir Square," chronicled the uprising through the reporting of Kouddous. His tweets, reports and analysis from Egypt have been widely posted in other media outlets, including "The Nation," "Foreign Policy," "Egypt Independent" and the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting.
Born in the United States and raised in Egypt, Kouddous joined "Democracy Now!" in 2003 as a volunteer before becoming a producer. In 2008 he was arrested while covering protests at the Republican National Convention in St. Paul, Minnesota. He is a fellow at The Nation Institute.
Center for Media and
The Center for Media and Democracy is being honored for its investigative work on "ALEC Exposed," which probed the American Legislative Exchange Council, a corporate-funded organization that has promoted a wish list of pro-corporate legislation into law in state after state and in Congress. Triggered by a whistleblower, CMD's investigation analyzed and exposed more than 800 ALEC "model bills" — on issues ranging from the environment and education to workers' rights and voting rights — that were developed in secret by legislators sitting side-by-side with corporate lobbyists. CMD made its investigation public in July in collaboration with "The Nation" magazine, and the exposé has sparked months of news coverage in mainstream and independent outlets.
The Izzy Award judges commended CMD for its "high-impact journalistic work that turned a bright light on a powerful institution that had largely operated in darkness."
CMD has been doing investigative reporting since 1993, with a special focus on corporate and government propaganda. It is the publisher of PRWatch, SourceWatch and BanksterUSA.
Judges of the Izzy Award are Park Center for Independent Media director Jeff Cohen; University of Illinois communications professor and author Robert W. McChesney; and Linda Jue, executive director and editor of the San Francisco-based G.W. Williams Center for Independent Journalism.
"Both Sharif Abdel Kouddous and the Center for Media and Democracy continue the Izzy Stone legacy of fearless journalism that stands up to the powerful and stands with the forces for change," said Cohen.
"This year's winners were selected from an exceptional pool of diverse nominees," said Jue. "Amid social upheaval at home and abroad, independent media outlets had a stellar year monitoring institutional power, chronicling systemic problems and pointing toward solutions."
Previous winners of the Izzy Award are author/columnist Robert Scheer; New York's in-depth outlet "City Limits"; investigative journalist Jeremy Scahill; blogger Glenn Greenwald; and "Democracy Now!" host/executive producer Amy Goodman.
Based in the Roy H. Park School of Communications at Ithaca College, the Park Center for Independent Media was launched in 2008 as a national center for the study of media outlets that create and distribute content outside traditional corporate systems.

When it's summer and bell peppers are in season, they are a good option for making casual dishes like fresh stuffed peppers for feeding a small family, or a large crowd. Even if you are just cooking for one, peppers freeze well, so if they look good and the price is right, stock up. They can be assembled ahead of time, baked just prior to serving and are tasty whether served hot or at room temperature.
Offered as hors d'oeuvres, baby bell peppers are a good choice for stuffing, as well. The Beef Checkoff folks, at www.BeefItsWhatsForDinner.com, share an appetizer recipe for Beef and Couscous Stuffed Baby Bell Peppers that dazzle with taste and color. And, the good news - these tiny treasures of flavor contain just 35 calories each. If it's cherries you crave, don't miss Post Foods' recipe for Cherry-Almond Crisp, which contains three cups of pitted cherries and a topping made with Posts' popular Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds Cereal. (Did you know the company makes 12 kinds of Honey Bunches of Oats Cereals? See them all at www.postfoods.com.) Farmers markets and roadside stands are rich with fresh produce and the selection only gets better as we progress summer. The time for summer dishes is here and like a good price for cherries, it disappears fast.

6 small-to-medium-squat, round peppers, washed, with very tops, seeds and membranes removed
For the sauce
3 cups tomato sauce
½ cup water from peppers cooking pot
Juice of 1 lemon juice
1 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Salt and pepper
For the filling
1 pound ground beef
½ small onion, minced
? cup finely chopped celery
½ teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1½ cups cooked rice
Salt and pepper
Olive oil, as needed
Place peppers in enough boiling salted water to just cover peppers and boil for 5 minutes. Drain bottom-sides up, and set them aside while you make the sauce and filling. For the sauce: in a medium saucepan, mix tomato sauce with pepper cooking pot water, lemon juice, sugar, ketchup and Worcestershire sauce; season with salt and pepper. Simmer over medium heat for 15 minutes. While sauce is simmering, make the filling. For the filling: in a large skillet, over medium heat, brown beef slightly. (If the meat is lean, add a little olive oil. Conversely, if there's a lot of excess fat in the skillet, remove it.) Add onion, celery and thyme, cooking until vegetables are soft. Add rice and season with salt and pepper, moistening with some of the sauce. Place peppers in a shallow baking pan containing a small amount of water. (The pan should be just large enough to hold the peppers in place so that do not topple over.) Divide the meat mixture among the peppers, then pour sauce over peppers. (Do not drench peppers in sauce. If you have extra sauce, spoon the peppers with the sauce during baking time, if needed.) Bake in a preheated 375-degree oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until browned, basting with the sauce in the baking dish. Makes 6 servings.

Subscribe To Britney Spears Will Be Paid Very Well While In Las Vegas Updates
I've already subscribed
Attention famous musicians looking for a way to stop touring and still bring in fat checks: Las Vegas is an option you really need to consider. Details of pop starlet Britney Spears' contract just went public for the first time, and it seems she will be making more than three hundred thousand dollars every time she takes the stage.
According to TMZ, Spears will perform forty-eight times at Planet Hollywood on the Strip. For her efforts, she will be paid $310,000 for each date, which will work out to almost $15,000,000 a year. More importantly for her peers who might be considering a similar move, she will be hauling in a little more than sixty percent of the gate receipts, which is very impressive for a woman on her first Vegas contract. By comparison, Celine Dion reportedly makes a little more than $475,000 per show, but she's contractually obligated to be there for seventy dates a year.
Once upon a time, Brit Brit wouldn't have worked very well in a place like Vegas because the average visitor was a whole lot older than her average fan. In the past decade, however, the middle schoolers and high schoolers who first loved her have turned into twenty-somethings who would love to see the starlet while on vacation. Obviously, we won't know exactly what the gates will look like until she starts churning out one show after another, but with only forty-eight dates, it seems very likely she'll sell every single one out at full asking price. Regardless, it should be a better fit for her than The X Factor.
In other Britney news, the pop singer's new song leaked over the weekend. It's entitled "Work Bitch", and while it's not the greatest thing she's ever put her name on, it's still pretty damn enjoyable. You can take a listen to it below…

Surf City property owners can expect a 25-percent tax hike beginning next fiscal year to pay for beach nourishment.
Surf City property owners can expect a 25-percent tax hike beginning next fiscal year to pay for beach nourishment.
The town council recently agreed unanimously to include a temporary increase of 10 cents per $100 of value for the next budget cycle, which begins July 1, to ensure funding for a 50-year beach nourishment project that would give the town an extra 200 feet of beach and higher dunes.
The increase will be effective for five years, enough time to generate the nearly $16 million the town needs to pay its portion of the estimated initial $84 million project cost.
Surf City's tax rate includes 5 cents per $100 of value for the town's beach fund, which sits now at about $5.2 million, Mayor Zander Guy said. The additional funds generated from the increase will push the overall tax rate from 31 cents to 41 cents per $100 valuation.
During a presentation detailing project costs, coastal project planning consultant Peter Ravella said the remainder of the money would come from federal and state funds.
The Army Corps of Engineers would design the project, which includes North Topsail Beach and will cost an estimated $138 million.
Benefits of the project include beefing the town's dune base to 100 feet and up to 15 feet high, reducing the risk of storm damage and further protecting homes and businesses on the island, according to town officials.
Town Manager Michael Moore has not presented his proposed 2013-14 budget, but said Tuesday he doesn't anticipate at this time asking for an increase above what the town will include for the beach fund.
Town officials and residents have discussed other ways to generate revenue for the project, including a paid parking program, increased traffic enforcement and a bridge toll.
Ravella told council members earlier this year that he didn't feel those were appropriate alternatives. He said the project likely will not begin earlier than December 2015. The beach will be nourished every six years during the 50-year period.

Shuttle Endeavour and Space Station Visible
by Joe Rao on
With the Space Shuttle Endeavour scheduled to undock from the International Space Station (ISS) on Friday evening, skywatchers across much of the United States and southern Canada are in for a real treat early on Saturday and Sunday morning.
Weather permitting on these mornings, there will be opportunities to see both the Endeavour orbiter and the ISS flying across the sky from many locations.
Appearing as a pair of very bright "stars," the ISS should appear as a somewhat brighter object and will be trailing Endeavour as they move across the sky. The pair will appear only a few degrees apart on Saturday morning, but the gap between the two will likely widen to perhaps 20-degrees or more by Sunday morning (your clenched fist held at arm's length measures roughly 10-degrees; so on Sunday morning expect Endeavour and the ISS to separated by about two fist-lengths).
The sight should easily be visible to anyone, even from brightly lit cities. Considering that after this mission there will be only be four left before the shuttle program ends (tentatively in September) the view of a shuttle orbiter and the Space Station flying in tandem will soon be a sight that will pass into history.
New York's View
The Tri-State Area will get two opportunities to see Endeavour flying with the ISS. The first will come on Saturday morning, just over 9 and a half hours after both vehicles have undocked; so they will still be relatively close to each other. The two spacecraft will emerge from out of the Earth's shadow at 5:21 a.m. EST, at an altitude of 18-degrees above the north-northwest horizon. They will attain a maximum altitude of 25-degrees above the north-northeast horizon at 5:23 a.m. and will drop toward the eastern horizon at 5:25 a.m. If you're familiar with the constellations, you'll see them glide between Cepheus and the "W" of Cassiopeia and pass under the bright star Deneb in Cygnus. Overall, this pass should last about 3 minutes and 50 seconds.
Your other opportunity will come early on Sunday. By then, the two spacecraft will be more widely separated (recall the "two fists" rule), but they will trace a much higher arc across the sky. Emerging from the Earth's shadow, about 15-degrees above the northwest horizon at 5:43 a.m. EST, Endeavour and the ISS will climb to a maximum altitude of 63-degrees above the northeast horizon at 5:45 a.m, then drop down toward the east-southeast horizon by 5:48. Overall, this pass should last 5 minutes 10 seconds! At their closest point (when highest in the sky), they should be about 240 miles away. If you're familiar with the constellations, they will appear to pass between the Big Dipper and Polaris (the North Star), then streak past the lozenge-shaped head of Draco, then, as they descend they will pass close to two of the brightest stars in the sky: Vega in Lyra and Altair in Aquila. Interestingly, the ground track for both vehicles shows that they will appear to pass directly overhead (or very nearly so) as seen from Catskill, NY in Columbia County.
Region of visibility
Generally speaking, the tandem will be visible across southern Canada and most of the 48 contiguous United States (Hawaii and Alaska will not have favorable viewing passes during this upcoming week).
Across southern Canada and the northern half of the United States there will be two or three morning viewing opportunities. For some favored locations, like Chicago and Milwaukee there will be as many as four opportunities. Over the southern United States, the viewing opportunities will be reduced to just one. Much of Florida (save for the Panhandle), central and southern Georgia, and parts of western and southern Texas will unfortunately be denied a view of the "dynamic duo" because they'll appear too low in the sky and too near to sunrise to be easily visible.
For other locations . . .
So what is the viewing schedule for your particular hometown? You can easily find out by visiting one of these three web sites:
Each will ask for your zip code or city, and respond with a list of suggested spotting times. Predictions computed a few days ahead of time are usually accurate within a few minutes. However, they can change due to the slow decay of the space station's orbit and periodic reboosts to higher altitudes. Check frequently for updates.
Another great site is Real Time Satellite Tracking, which shows where the ISS or Space Shuttle are at any given moment during the day or night.
What to expect
Both vehicles will be traveling across North America on northwest-to-southeast trajectories.
A large telescope is needed to make out details of the sprawling station. Traveling in their respective orbits at approximately 18,000 mph (29,000 kph), both should be visible anywhere from about one to five minutes (depending on the particular viewing pass) as they glide with a steady speed across the sky.
Because of its size and configuration of highly reflective solar panels, the space station is now, by far, the brightest man-made object currently in orbit around the Earth.
On favorable passes, it approaches magnitude -5 in brightness, which would rival the planet Venus and is more than 25 times brighter than Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky. Some have even caught a glimpse of the ISS just prior to sunset or shortly after sunrise. And as a bonus, sunlight glinting directly off the solar panels can sometimes make the ISS appear to briefly flare in brilliance.
Other satellites too
The appearance of either the space shuttle or the space station moving across the sky is not in itself unusual. On any clear evening within a couple of hours of local sunset and with no optical aid, you can usually spot several orbiting Earth satellites creeping across the sky like moving stars. Satellites become visible only when they are in sunlight and the observer is in deep twilight or darkness. This usually means shortly after dusk or before dawn.
What makes the prospective upcoming passages so interesting is that you'll be able to see the two largest orbiting space vehicles in the sky at the same time.
Shuttle Endeavour is expected to undock from the ISS at 7:54 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on Friday. Endeavour will fly around the ISS before finally pulling away from the Station at 9:38 p.m. EST, although it should still remain at a relatively close distance to it until its scheduled return to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida Sunday evening.

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — A potential deal to privatize management of the Pennsylvania Lottery was put off for an additional 10 days on Monday after Gov. Tom Corbett and a British company agreed to extend negotiations.
Hours before the $34 billion bid by Camelot Global Services PA LLC was set to expire, Corbett's Revenue Department announced the bid was extended until Jan. 10.
The Revenue Department said the additional period would provide sufficient time for the lottery workers' union to submit a proposal of its own. The state also is waiting for a risk mitigation consultant's report about whether Camelot is a suitable manager, and state lawmakers have raised questions about the proposal.
Camelot, which runs the national lottery in the United Kingdom and is a consultant to the California Lottery, is pledging to generate at least $34 billion in profits over a 20-year contract. The company released a statement Monday that said it hoped to retain "as many current lottery employees as possible" and that it intended to incorporate and locate all operations in Pennsylvania.
Camelot's plans include introducing keno to bars and restaurants, expanding the number of lottery retailers, improving the portfolio of games and changing marketing strategies to capture a broader spectrum of lottery players, particularly those in higher income households.
Some Democratic lawmakers and anti-gambling Republicans have raised opposition to the idea, while Auditor General Jack Wagner, a Democrat, has questioned the wisdom of awarding such a large contract to a sole bidder. In addition, state Treasurer Rob McCord, a Democrat, has said he may not pay Camelot unless its plans to expand lottery gambling are clearly legal.
The Senate Finance Committee has announced a Jan. 14 hearing to review the proposed plan, and Corbett administration and Camelot officials say they are willing to testify.
The union, Council 13 of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, filed a Dec. 17 lawsuit challenging the governor's authority to award the contract and expand the scope of lottery gambling without legislative approval.
Camelot's bid over the contract's first 10 years is an estimated $500 million to $1 billion more than what could be achieved by the state employees who currently run the lottery, Secretary of Revenue Daniel Meuser has said.
In a news release Monday, the Revenue Department said a second bid extension will be negotiated by the state and Camelot if, after the union proposal and "probity report" are submitted, "a private management is determined to be in the best interest of protecting and growing lottery funding."
Only two other states — Illinois and Indiana — have hired private companies to manage their lotteries.
The value of the Pennsylvania Lottery contract to Camelot will be hundreds of millions of dollars in management fees and potential incentives for exceeding its profit guarantees. If Camelot were to fall short of an annual profit guarantee, the state could dip into a Camelot cash reserve to offset it, but only up to 5 percent of the annual profit.
The 41-year-old Pennsylvania Lottery is one of the nation's largest. It recorded $3.5 billion in sales for the year that ended June 30 and contributed more than $1 billion in profits to benefit programs for the elderly, including transit, rent and property tax rebates, prescription drug assistance, senior centers and long-term care services.
Talks to privatize Pa. Lottery management extended
HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — A potential deal to privatize management of the Pennsylvania Lottery was put off for an additional 10 days on Monday after Gov. Tom Corbett and a British company agreed to extend negotiations.

Shrimp and Avocado Salad
Zesty Lime Shrimp and Avocado Salad
Zesty lime juice and cilantro are the key ingredients to creating this light and refreshing salad, no heavy mayonnaise to weigh it down. Made with the freshest ingredients; jumbo shrimp, avocados, tomatoes, red onion, cilantro and chopped jalapeño tossed with some freshly squeezed lime juice and a touch of olive oil.
This will be a huge hit at your Cinco de Mayo fiesta or summer bash! Serve this as is for an appetizer, or over lettuce o tostadas for a lunch or light meal. You can easily adapt this to suit your taste by adding more or less cilantro, jalapeño etc. If you plan on making this ahead of time, you can combine all the ingredients except for the avocado and cilantro and keep this refrigerated, then add them right before serving. This easily doubles for a large crowd.
Shrimp is low in fat and calories, but tends to be naturally high in sodium so if you are on a restricted sodium diet, you may want to limit your shrimp intake. Moving forward, I will be posting the sodium info on new recipes without the salt as most foods contain sodium. If you use salt be sure to adjust the nutritional info.

We need feedback on the kayak trip on Sunday following the Pig Roast. The only thing to keep in mind is that I need to be back home early enough to clean out the pig roaster to return it Monday morning.
Here was what we were going to post in the write-up. If anyone else has any suggestion please post them. I would like it to be fairly close though.
Oh, and we have removed the rapids from the trip.
We are putting together a small paddling trip on Cobbosseecontee Stream and heading to Pleasant Pond.
Where we decide to put our water crafts in will decide on how long of a paddle it will be. The paddle could be as short as 2 miles to Pleasant Pond and then back or it could be as long at 6 miles to Pleasant Pond and then back. There are even options for those that want to make it longer then this. They could paddle to Gardiner to they could paddle to the south end of Pleasant Pond. Either way there are options for everyone, whether it be a short paddle or a long one.

Gravity tank. Upon activation, water stored in the water closet tank is rapidly released into the bowl through openings in the rim. The rapid filling of the trapway triggers a siphonic action within the bowl and trapway.
Flushometer tank (pressure assist). A pressure vessel installed within the water-closet tank uses water-supply pressure to compress entrapped air. When the flushing mechanism is activated, the energy stored in the compressed air is released, causing a surge of water into a specially designed bowl.
Flushometer valve. A valve, external to the water closet and connected to the pressurized water-supply line, is designed so that when the flushing mechanism is activated, the water-supply line is opened to create a pressurized discharge into the water closet.
Electrohydraulic. An electrohydraulic water closet is a siphonic or washdown water closet that utilizes motors, pumps, and controllers to assist the flushing action by monitoring and controlling the flush and dictating the exact discharge from the tank into the bowl.
Vacuum assist. This is a modified gravity-tank water closet that incorporates a trapway in the bowl and tank components. Activating the flushing device creates a vacuum via an interconnection between the flush tank and trapway, which assists in waste removal.

Citation, Documentation of Sources
Q. I'm copyediting a book that's using endnotes with no bibliography. For multiple authors, should I use the rule in CMOS and list up to ten authors in the first endnote? What if each chapter in the book I'm copyediting is written by a different author, and these authors differ in the number of authors they list in the endnotes? Does the copyeditor then have a role in imposing consistency?
Q. If a number of references are given in the same endnote, should they be given in any particular order (e.g., alphabetically)?
Q. I am attempting to proofread and fix the style of the endnotes of a book on communications for a generally humanities audience. My problem is that the author of the book is a lawyer and has cited many law review articles that he considers governed by the Bluebook style. Should I use the general style for citing periodicals in the sixteenth edition of CMOS (paragraphs 14.170–217) for the legal articles? As it is, the humanities articles are in CMOS format and the law review articles are in Bluebook format. This hybrid style doesn't seem acceptable to me. Please help.
Q. Hi. I'm creating a handout for students that's kind of a quick guide to simple kinds of citations following CMOS and referring them to their copies of CMOS for more info. I'm having trouble finding your preference for television show citations. I can find info on citing them within a text or for citing reviews, but how about citing the actual program in a bibliography?
Q. I have a question that I hope you will answer for me. In an academic book, how does one cite a quote that is taken from a book of quotations (such as Bartlett's)? Does one cite the quote's original source— Bartlett's provides scant information about its quotes' sources—does one cite Bartlett's, which seems awkward to me, or are quotes found in books of quotations considered to be part of the public domain and, therefore, not in need of citation? Also, are there different rules for whether the quote is placed above the chapter title (a chapter epigraph) or part of the body of a chapter? I am working under a tight deadline and would, therefore, greatly appreciate a prompt response, if possible.
Q. I have looked high and low for some reference to citing television ads in your manual, and have not found a single one. How would one cite a television commercial as part of an article's running text, and in the references section as well?
Q. I am attempting to help someone out with their bibliography and I, of course, have received all the difficult entries. I have a three-page document that is an Executive Summary; it is not a published work, nor does it have any "publisher" information, but it does list authors. How would I cite this? Would I follow the rules for citing an unpublished, duplicated piece?
Q. I'm in the process of finalizing my Ph.D. dissertation, and I'm struggling with two minor stylistic issues: (1) How should I handle citations within a parenthesis when it begins with e.g.? Should the year be enclosed in parentheses or not? That is, ". . . (e.g., Porter (1987))" or "(e.g., Porter 1987)." (2) Is there an elegant way to refer to a page or section in the current document so that the cross-reference is not confused with an external reference. For example, the text may read: "According to Porter (1987), strategy can be defined as. . . . This definition is used in the current research (see also p. 49)." This reference could be interpreted as page 49 in Porter (1987) or as page 49 in the dissertation.
Q. Perhaps you can help me. How do I format a second footnote for an article in an edited anthology (more than two editors), when the anthology already has been cited fully in another footnote for a different article in the same anthology? Must I write the complete citation for the anthology for every article contained within it?
Q. I have searched for the answer to this question but have not found it discussed in your text. I am writing a dissertation in the social sciences. I cite to references in parentheses in the text in the format (Smith 1999) with full citations contained in a bibliography. I sometimes cite to the same reference a few sentences later. I am wondering if I can use the abbreviation (ibid.) instead of repeating the exact same citation (Smith 1999)?

U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
Federal Agency Charged Staffing Company Fired White Woman for Complaining About Race and Age Bias in Atlanta Office
ATLANTA – Spencer Reed Group, LLC, a Kansas-based staffing company that provides staffing and administrative services to employers, will pay $125,000 to settle a race and age discrimination and retaliation lawsuit brought by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the agency announced today. The EEOC had charged that Spencer Reed Group violated federal law by discriminating against 55-year-old Caucasian employee at its Atlanta office because of her race and age and firing her as retaliation for her complaining about it.
According to the EEOC(s suit, the complainant, a senior functional analyst (SFA) for Spencer Reed since 2003, was treated differently in many ways because of her age and race. She was subjected to adverse employment actions such as unduly harsh discipline, denied training, given the heaviest and most difficult workload and forced to provide work reports on a weekly instead of monthly basis. Further, the EEOC said, a supervisor yelled at and belittled the woman in front of her co-workers.
The woman's co-workers, all younger African Americans, were not treated in the same manner by their supervisor, the EEOC said, and the supervisor would not speak to her at the same time she addressed the other employees. One of the woman's co-workers, a lead financial management analyst, said she felt that the treatment indicated "prejudice." Finally the employee complained about the disparate treatment, but she was fired as retaliation the next day, the EEOC charged.
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits employers from discriminating against people due to race, color, religion, sex or national origin and from retaliation against employees for complaining about it. The Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) makes it unlawful for employers to discriminate against employees who are 40 or older because of age. The EEOC filed suit on August 17, 2009 in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, Atlanta Division (Case No.: 1:09-CV-2228) after first attempting to reach a voluntary settlement out of court.
The consent decree settling the suit, in addition to the monetary relief, includes provisions for equal employment opportunity training, reporting, and posting of anti-discrimination notices. In the suit and consent decree, the Spencer Reed Group denied any liability or wrongdoing.
"Spencer Reed Group worked diligently with the parties in this case to come to a speedy resolution," said Robert Dawkins, regional attorney for the EEOC's Atlanta office. "Going forward, we believe the company is sincerely committed to avoiding these types of problems."
The EEOC enforces federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. Further information about the EEOC is available on its web site at www.eeoc.gov.

About RBC > Corporate Profile > Awards and Recognition > Auto insurance clients rate RBC Insurance highest in Canada for claims satisfaction
MISSISSAUGA, August 7, 2013 — RBC Insurance was ranked highest overall in customer satisfaction for auto insurance claims experience among insurance companies in Canada, according to the inaugural J.D. Power 2013 Canadian Auto Claims Satisfaction StudySM.
This independent study identifies overall customer satisfaction with the auto insurance claims experience using six categories: First Notice of Loss, Service Interaction, Appraisal, Repair Process, Rental Car Experience and Settlement. J.D. Power surveyed more than 2,400 customers across Canada who recently filed a claim with their auto insurance provider.
"When clients choose RBC Insurance as their provider for auto insurance, they put their trust in us to provide quality service and support, especially when they file a claim," said Neil Skelding, president and CEO, RBC Insurance. "Having our clients rate us highest in the J.D. Power study speaks volumes about our exceptional team of professionals who deliver their best to our clients each and every day."
Among the highlights from the study, RBC Insurance was recognized as having the highest level of customer satisfaction in the two factors for auto insurance claims: Settlement and First Notice of Loss.
RBC Insurance has continued to improve its claims process. For example, it introduced Virtual Appraisals and Auto Express, two client-centric programs that simplify the claims process and improve turnaround times.
"At RBC Insurance, we are constantly looking for ways to improve our claims experience," added Skelding. "Our claims team has made some major strides in making the auto insurance claims process quicker and simpler - and our clients are signalling that these enhancements are working for them."

Wisconsin roundup: State deer kill down 12 percent from last year's opening weekend; more state news stories
MADISON — Wisconsin hunters shot 12 percent fewer deer in the opening weekend of the nine day gun season, continuing a downward spiral that lasted for the entire hunt in 2016.
The state DNR said Tuesday that a preliminary total of 102,903 deer were taken last Saturday and Sunday, when most of the hunting takes place. There were fewer hunters in the woods as well, as almost 583,000 licenses were sold through the opening weekend — almost 5,000 fewer than in 2016. Hunters took 15 percent fewer antlerless deer than a year ago, while the buck harvest was down 9 percent. The Northwoods was the only region where the deer totals were up — evidence that the northern herd is recovering after three mild winters and a regional ban on antlerless deer hunting that's no longer in place.
Man accused of leaving daughter behind in drunken driving crash
BARABOO — A 25-year-old West Baraboo man is accused of leaving his 4-year-old daughter behind after she got thrown out of a window in a drunken driving crash.
Alex Shultis appeared in Sauk County Circuit Court Tuesday on 11 criminal charges for a crash last Friday night in which his twin 1-year-old daughters were reportedly secured in car seats with nothing but diapers — and were covered with glass and other debris. Officials said Shultis' pickup truck veered into a ditch after it lost control while making a turn on Sauk County Road T in the town of Fairfield.
Prosecutors say Shultis left the scene and drove to his apartment as the four-year-old was left in a ditch screaming for her dad, and she had minor injuries. A judge set bond at $1,000 for Shultis, who's due back in court Dec. 15 on criminal charges that include child neglect, reckless endangerment, driving drunk with children in a vehicle, and obstructing police — plus several traffic violations.
Report: Obamacare hasn't reduced free charity care from hospitals
MADISON — Obamacare has not reduced the amount of free care that Wisconsin hospitals give to those in need.
The state's Hospital Association says it gave $190 million of free care last year, $10 million more than in 2015. The group's CEO, Eric Borgerding, says the Affordable Care Act has expanded coverage for thousands of Wisconsinites — but people still fall through the cracks when they lose their jobs, get seriously ill, or require emergency care they cannot afford. Medicaid only pays hospitals two thirds of the cost of caring for its clients — while Medicare covers 78 percent of treatment costs for seniors. As a result, critics say those with private insurance help pay for those patients — and the Hospital Association said the total shortfalls for government payments were more than two-point-seven billion dollars last year.
Critics say state bill could put hidden chemicals in air
MADISON — An environmental lobbyist says a Wisconsin bill to reduce air pollution enforcement would mean more hidden chemicals in the air that nobody knows about.
Sara Barry spoke for Clean Wisconsin at a state Assembly hearing Tuesday on a GOP bill to limit the state's air pollution enforcement only to chemicals that the federal EPA regulates. A new legislative report says Wisconsin now regulates 358 pollutants that Washington doesn't — and the bill's sponsors, Assembly Republican Jesse Kremer and Sen. Duey Strobel, say it puts an undue burden on state businesses.
They say about one quarter of those pollutants are not emitted in the Badger State. Also, lawmakers heard testimony on a GOP bill to shut down the state's air pollution monitor at Kohler-Andre State Park in Sheboygan County — where a business group says it picks up ozone from Chicago, thus putting unfair limits on local air emissions.
Advocacy group warns holiday shoppers about online-related toys
MADISON — A Wisconsin advocacy group has announced its 32nd annual list of children's toys that holiday shoppers should avoid.
And for the first time, an online related toy gets a warning from the Wisconsin Public Interest Research Group. The group known as WISPIRG mentions privacy concerns with toys like "My Friend Cayla," a doll connected to Bluetooth. The group says the Federal Trade Commission is investigating whether Cayla violates the Children's Online Protection Act. Emma Fisher of WISPIRG's foundation says parents need to make sure that their kids' toys don't have insecure connections that strangers can invade with their smartphones.
Another young hunter bags buck thanks to new state law
MOUNT HOREB — Media reports have highlighted two young Wisconsinites who've shot bucks this deer season thanks to a new state law.
Seven-year-old Dylan Copus of Mount Horeb bagged an eight pointer, joining 6-year-old Lexie Harris of Taylor County who got a six pointer during the opening weekend. Both could not take guns into the woods until Gov. Scott Walker signed a Republican bill last week to let kids younger than 10 hunt for the first time — and they have to go out with mentors, even though they can have their own weapons.
Contractor injured in house explosion, fire
LODI — A heating contractor is hospitalized with burns following an explosion and fire at a house that was under construction near Lodi.
Officials say two people were working on drywall when they smelled gas at the 4,000 square foot home about 8 a.m.Tuesday — and a heating contractor from Sauk City was checking on the gas when the explosion occurred and portions of the debris started on fire. The contractor was taken to UW Hospital in Madison with burns. The furnace was connected, and Lodi fire officials say there was probably some type of leak. The cause is still being investigated, and officials say it appears to be an accident.
Nebraska's OK of Keystone route could affect Wisconsin's future
LINCOLN, Neb. — Although Nebraska officials have approved a new route for the Keystone XL pipeline, opponents could either file a lawsuit or seek another federal review of the project.
Meanwhile, another pipeline owner, Enbridge Energy, has done initial surveying for a possible future crude oil pipeline across Wisconsin, even though there are no official plans for such a line right now. Enbridge owns an easement 80 feet wide from its terminal in Superior to oil traffic lines in the Chicago area. Reports say the company may need a larger easement to add a future pipeline. TransCanada owns the Keystone line, and it expects to review its own needs before announcing whether to proceed with the long-delayed north/south pipeline.
LA CROSSE — In the 2017 youth risk behavior survey, one in eight female La Crosse-area students say they've been sexually assaulted.
The increase is nearly 1 percent over the results of the last survey in 2015. Over 1,500 females participated in the survey which is developed by the Centers for Disease Control, which is given to males and females every two years.

This is my lettering entry for the 2013 TYPISM book.
I prefer to letter this style when I am not creating art for commercial projects. All the contract lettering I have done throughout my professional career has been tightly structured with restrictions and legibility as a priority. I cannot follow the same agenda in personal work.
For whatever reason, I write words with mix of upper and lowercase. I find beauty in lettering with the imperfect human factor. It has taken nearly a lifetime to just go with the flow of it all. I basically use vector lines to draw what I see in the preliminary rough and remain true to the sketch.

Affirmative conclusion from a negative premise

- A != B and B != C, therefore C = A

- Evolution is not true. Intelligent design is not evolution. Therefore, Intelligent design is true.

Mister Zimi, Spring/Summer 12/13
..I think I just discovered my new favourite... Could this day get any better!?
I haven't blogged in such a long time, I know... But it's been one of those wonderfully productive days where the sun is shining, the creativity is flowing and everything has fallen magically into place... then to top it off, I stumble upon this most gorgeous, perfectly put together summer collection, by the most gorgeous, Bali based Melbournian label... I couldn't not share!
It's funny... absolutely EVERYTHING seems to be pointing me back to the beautiful Bali! Especially when I'm still yet to fully recover from my April Bali adventures... Thank you dengue fever!! But even with the bad that came with my little holiday, Bali is by far and beyond one of the most amazing places to visit. I'm aching to go back and explore all the parts of it I missed.

Awesome self-tanner!! from San Francisco, CA Verified Purchaser
I just got this Tanning Lotion Reviews product yesterday and used it for the first time last night all over my body. It was relatively easy to apply (although I washed my hands throughout the application process to avoid staining them). I was so happy with the results that I used it on my face when I woke up this morn. I just went into the bathroom at work and was like, 'I look tan!!' I've been avoiding the sun for the past three years, so it's the first time I've seen myself tan in a long time, and I love it!! It is a nice, golden color, too--exactly the way my skin looks when it's really tan. The Tanning Lotion Reviews product smell is nice when you put it on, but it does fade into that self-tanner smell after awhile. That and the price are the only drawbacks--well worth it in my opinion. Review posted 3/12/2012.

Great smelling spray tan from san Francisco, CA Verified Purchaser
Tanning Lotion Reviews product smells great, like cherry almond and goes on smooth, no streaks, excellent self tanning spray and I've been using them a long time. I used to use St Tropez but now I'm a fan of this brand. Review posted 4/14/2012.
5 out of 5
Today I broke that rule, slopped some Tanning Lotion Reviews product on, waited two hours, jumped in the shower and washed off all the color guide as I felt too gross after a while, and thought I had washed the tanner away too. I didn't - I am left with a light gorgeous tan that looks just like I got it from the sun.7/3/2012

Very believable color - without streaks or funny smell! from Glastonbury, CT Verified Purchaser
Tanning Lotion Reviews product is the best self tanner I ever used. The color looks totally natural - brown, not the orange look I've had from virtually every other tanner. The brown color guide helps a lot, so there is not streaking whatsoever. My best advice would be to keep washing your hands frequently as you apply the tanner. The first time I used Tanning Lotion Reviews product, I didn't wash my hands until the end and it took me literally ten minutes to get all the rubbed in color off my hands. I also needed to use a pumice. But the good news is my palms had no hint of color on them in the morning, so the pumice idea is actually great. Review posted 6/25/2012.

These individuals have been great mentors to my son and many other kids through the years, and I am pleased to say that my son has just earned his Eagle rank - the highest rank in scouting. I have posted each quilt a while back, when they were tops, and some of the board members were hoping to see them once they were quilted. Just need to do bindings now. In both cases, I was working soley from my stash.
Green and Blue is called Lake Oswego Stars, and the pattern was from Quilters' Newsletter Magazine Dec. 2004. It was professionally quilted.
Tan and Red is named Whole Grain Oats, and the pattern was published under the name Apple Crisp in American Patchwork and Quilting, October 2011. I made minor modifications to the original. It was also professionally quilted, by a different long arm quilter than the other.
Thanks for looking and happy sewing.

Group Scavenger Hunt
Communication | Collaboration | Team Strategy
Group contributions, resourcefulness, and creative thinking
Objectives of large group scavenger hunts can vary depending on the type of event to include: earning revenue, completing a certain number of challenges, and ensuring the balance of team dynamics and participation.
Group Size
Large group scavenger hunt events typically are the most successful with teams that have at least 3 or more participants, and competing teams of at least 3 or more, preferably 5-15 groups.
Materials for large group scavenger hunt events can include: scavenger hunt lists and clues, backpacks, pencils, paper, compasses, cell phones, gps (geocaching), maps and more.
Room for group to meet and end up in; fun area for scavenger hunt
Typical scavenger hunt events for large groups will be facilitated outdoors, in a downtown, zoo, a theme park, or another fun and adventurous location.
Scavenger hunt locations for large groups often follow a theme such as mission impossible or clue based themes.
The following is one idea for a large group scavenger hunt event: After groups are formed, ask one representative to come up and get a paper bag with the scavenger hunt list in it. Ask the group not to open the bag until you say, "go". Establish the boundaries, which are usually the room itself. Tell them to be creative in finding the items on the list and put them in the bag. As long as they can justify it, and can convince the audience it will work. Call time after ten minutes. Have each group explain their items. If you choose to score the activity, have the audience clap, or an "impartial judge" decides.
Suggested scavenger hunt items:
Generic list:
- 1. Paperclip
- 2. Pet leash
- 3. Ticket stub
- 4. Scissors
- 5. Pencil
- 6. Out of state license
- 7. Bingo marker
- 8. Pocket knife
- 9.The oldest penny
- 10. Baby picture
Creative List:
- 1. magic wand
- 2. portable phone
- 3. flower
- 4. an invention
- 5. hat
- 6. musical instrument
- 7. spider web
- 8. clock
- 9. binoculars
- 10. flea circus trapeeze
If you are trying to orient a group to a new space, consider adding items such as "date stamp from library" or "parking ticket from garage", "count the number of stairmasters in the gym" or similar challenges to help them learn the physical layout of the new space. .
Also consider thematic lists: camping trips, holidays, etc.
Variation: Alphabet scavenger hunt: have each group find something on their bodies that begins with each letter of the alphabet, have them record the words on a sheet of paper.
Several external companies provide leadership and materials for unique scavenger hunt adventures, some with high-tech tools, and some that involve drinking.

From Community Need to Community Cause
November 12, 2013
Kathy Swahn, executive director of The Drake House in Roswell, Georgia, talks about how a group of civic leaders in suburban Atlanta recognized a community need—a place for homeless women and their children to live as they got their lives in order—and turned it into a cause with surprisingly deep roots in the community.

text: In the spring of 1846, a group of nearly ninety emigrants left Springfield, Illinois, and headed west. Led by brothers Jacob and George Donner, the group attempted to take a new and supposedly shorter route to California. They soon encountered rough terrain and numerous delays, and they eventually became trapped by heavy snowfall high in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Purportedly reduced to cannibalism to survive through the winter, only half of the original group reached California the following year. Their story quickly spread, and before long the term "Donner Party" became synonymous with one of humanity's most ingrained taboos.

The Home HIV Test Kit: What You Should Know
You may discover OraQuick's In-Home HIV Test on the shelves of the pharmacy section at your local drugstore or Wal-Mart. Approved by the Food and Drug Administration in July 2012, the home HIV test is intended to reduce the number of people who have HIV but don't know it.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 21 percent of people living with HIV are currently unaware of it. Research shows that people who don't know that they're infected are more likely to spread the virus than people who know their status. Knowing your HIV status is also an important step in the process of seeking and maintaining medical treatment.
OraQuick's In-Home HIV Test detects antibodies that fight off HIV infection and that can be found only in the saliva of people who have been infected with HIV. OraQuick uses saliva, so no blood is required. You swipe your gums with a mouth swab and then place it in a solution. Similar to a pregnancy test, the test stick includes a control line that is automatically visible and a test line that becomes visible only with a positive result. This positive result may or may not represent true HIV infection (more below).
Here are a few tips to help you take and interpret your in-home HIV test:
Read the package insert prior to taking the test. Although this may seem obvious, some test kits may not include all necessary parts, and there are special instructions that, if not followed, may cause your test result to be wrong. For instance, you should not eat, drink or use oral-care products (such as toothpaste or mouthwash) 30 minutes before testing. Also, be sure to remove dental products, such as retainers, prior to swabbing your mouth.
Take this test only if you do not know your HIV status. This test is meant for people who are unaware of their HIV status. People who have tested positive will test positive again.
Be aware of the "window period." After a person becomes infected with HIV, a window period of approximately 22 days exists during which the concentration of HIV in his or her blood, semen and/or vaginal fluid peaks, yet the person may test HIV negative. The person is more likely to spread HIV during the window period than during any other time. So use condoms consistently and do not let your guard down just because you or your partner received a negative test result.
A positive result is only the first step. There is a small possibility that your home HIV test could give you a false HIV-positive result. Approximately 1 in 5,000 tests is estimated to generate a false-positive result. So if you test positive, be sure to follow up with a health-care professional to have a confirmatory test. You can find free testing and counseling sites by visiting the CDC's National HIV and STD Testing Resources website.
A conventional test administered in a health-care setting may provide a more accurate result. Oral home tests are less able to detect HIV antibodies than traditional blood tests performed in a medical office. Oral in-home kits also have a higher likelihood of user error than oral tests administered by trained personnel, so it is important to follow the instructions closely.
Call 911 if you feel depressed or have thoughts of hurting yourself. Approximately 30 percent of people taking the home test reported anxiety after receiving a positive result. The package insert that comes with the test provides a 24-hour customer-service line that can connect you to counseling within your area. You can also find links to counseling and testing in your area by visiting the CDC's Testing Resources website or through OraQuick's website, although some providers may require you to pay out of pocket if you are uninsured.
If you feel uncomfortable viewing your test results alone, seek testing and counseling in your area. The benefit of testing at a clinic or doctor's office is that you can instantly receive recommendations on the next steps for medical care. Many people who have received positive results report feeling additional comfort in knowing that someone is there for emotional support.

Lima beans, also known as butter beans, are legumes that are a great source of cholesterol-lowering fiber and protein. They have a wonderful buttery, starchy texture and are quite filling. At our home we make a lima bean curry that is eaten with paratha (flat Indian bread). The gravy used is the standard yogurt and caramelized onion combination flavored with Indian spices.
I used frozen lima beans in this dish. Frozen vegetables are picked at the peak of ripeness and are as close to fresh as you can get without growing them yourselves or finding a local supplier. I never use dried lima beans so no soaking is required with these. That means a faster cooking time, which is always nice.

School Honors Student Killed in Rapid City Fire
RAPID CITY - A Rapid City elementary school is honoring a student who died in a house fire last year with a colorful quilt.
KEVN reports that the quilt, which hangs in the Canyon Lake Elementary School gymnasium, will honor 9-year-old Thomas Rosado.
Thomas, his two brothers and their grandmother died in November when their apartment caught fire.
Thomas was remembered during an assembly at the school this week. The assembly featured Native American dancers and discussions about respect.
A plaque with Thomas' name will also be put in the school's trophy case.

Hi there, Mr. Leatherback here. If you don't know me, I'm a sea turtle who travels the world as an ambassador for my kind, bringing the message to humans about how important it is for our oceans to stay clean and healthy. Take it from a turtle — you humans depend on the oceans as much as I do, for your food, climate, recreation, and even the air you breathe! It is important for all of us to understand the threats to the oceans, and what we can do about it.
I am back in Indonesia with some of my human friends from Conservation International (CI). We are here in Cenderawasih Bay on the Bird's Head Peninsula (in the northwest corner of the island of New Guinea). As my old pal Mark Erdmann pointed out a few days ago, it's quite an amazing place for marine life, not to mention a really important terrestrial wilderness site and a super-interesting place for traditional human cultures as well. There are more than 700 different languages spoken on this island, making it the site of highest language and cultural diversity on the planet.
I was born on the other side of the Pacific in Costa Rica, where my kind are few and far between. In the Eastern Pacific, leatherbacks have declined by as much as 90 percent in the past quarter century.
Here in the Western Pacific, we are not feeling quite so much pain. The largest nesting population for leatherbacks in the Pacific is right here in Indonesia at a beach called Jamursba-Medi, and thousands of female leatherbacks lay their eggs here every year. After nesting, these same turtles travel around looking for food; one turtle tagged here a few years ago swam 12,774 miles [20,558 kilometers] over a period of 647 days to get to feeding grounds near Oregon in the U.S., one of the longest migrations ever recorded for a marine vertebrate! And she didn't stop there — she turned around and headed back toward Hawaii before her satellite tag popped out. Now, I like to swim as much as the next turtle, and I will go far for my favorite food of jellyfish, but it makes my flippers hurt just thinking about going that far.
All seven species of turtles have to live a pretty cautious lifestyle these days. Wherever we go, we have to keep an eye out for things like fishing nets and longlines, because we can get tangled and drown. We also need to worry about losing our nesting beaches, since people keep putting up hotels and turning on bright lights that make it difficult for us to come out to lay our eggs. We have noticed that things are heating up — literally — when it comes to global climate change, and we are a little worried that the results of sea level rise and higher water temperatures could be a real problem for us. Some people still hunt and eat us, or use our shells to make jewelry.
Another problem that all of you humans seem to be a part of is plastic pollution — all those single-use plastic bottles, bags and six-pack holders eventually wind up in ocean where they look a lot like jellyfish, and my leatherback buddies and I eat them accidentally. Just yesterday I nearly choked on a plastic bag (see video below). So do us a favor and use reusable bags and water bottles, so all that junk doesn't end up in our ocean home.
I stopped in the small town of Yende just the other day to say hello to some of the local humans. The kids seemed happy to see me, and they showed me around their beautiful home.
I've talked to a few of my new leatherback chums this week, too. They are very grateful for all the work humans are doing to help protect their important nesting beaches, and we all say thanks for helping to expand protected areas in the Bird's Head Seascape and all throughout the Pacific.
That's all for now. Best fishes!

A Touching Story with an Empowering Message, Group Therapy's Production of Steel Magnolias was a Hit! This adaptation of Robert Harling's original 1987 stage-play featured an all-female cast to portray the six heroines living in a small Louisiana town. Centered onTruvy's Beauty Spot, these women gathered regularly to share their triumphs, tragedies and celebrate love and family. With no scene changes and the absence of male characters, these empowered women shined bright as their individual stories unfolded in the Mecca of femininity, the hair salon. As I intently watched the play, I also noticed that the audience laughed and cried, clearly as moved by these sincere portraits of strength and compassion as I.
"I was incredibly impressed by the performance; it was both a treat and a pleasure to attend opening night!" EWI Nonprofit Development Intern, Melinda Allen said of the production.
The show shared many memorable messages. A quote that stood out to me came from Shelby Eatenton-Latcherie when she exclaimed, "I'd rather have 30 minutes of something wonderful than a lifetime of nothing special!" Lucky for us, we had 90 minutes of something spectacular!
Hosted in Alexandria's Convergence Sanctuary, which formerly housed the EWI office, this weekend-long enactment donated all proceeds to EWI and contributed to fundraising efforts for our upcoming 10 Year Anniversary Benefit.

U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
Federal Agency Charges Wynantskill Store Manager Grabbed and Verbally Harassed Teenage Employees
RENSSELAER, N.Y. —Severalfemale employees, some of whom were teenagers, were subjected to severe and pervasive sexual harassment at a Wynantskill, N.Y., Dunkin' Donuts, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) charged in an employment discrimination lawsuit announced today.
The EEOC's lawsuit filed Wednesday, November 25, 2009, charges that the manager of the Dunkin' Donuts on Main Street in Wynantskill grabbed female employees' buttocks and breasts, kissed them on the neck, and hugged them against their will. He told them they were "hot" and told them he preferred virgins. He asked about their sex lives and described in explicit detail the sexual acts he wanted to perform on them, the EEOC said. He warned them not to tell anyone about what he said to them. The EEOC alleges company officials failed to take adequate measures to prevent and/or stop the harassment despite complaints.
Sexual harassment violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The EEOC filed the suit against College View Donuts LLC, doing business as Dunkin' Donuts, Civil Action No. 1:09-cv-01320-TJM-RFT, in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of New York, after first attempting to reach a pre-litigation settlement.
The suit seeks monetary relief, effective policies and procedures against discrimination, effective training on anti-discrimination laws, and a permanent injunction against discrimination.
"The EEOC brought this action to obtain all appropriate remedies for these victims," said Spencer H. Lewis, Jr., director of the EEOC's New York District Office. "Companies need to understand that they must be vigilant about protecting its employees from harassment."
EEOC Senior Trial Attorney Adela Santos added, "The EEOC takes allegations of sexual harassment very seriously, especially when the employees being harassed are teens. For many of these employees, this is their first job and they don't know how to complain, especially when the harasser is their manager."
The EEOC is responsible for enforcing federal laws against employment discrimination. Further information is available at www.eeoc.gov.
