Pick a name for the monkey and win 3 free months of Flickr Pro. Good luck!
Contest winners
Ladies, gentlemen, monkey...we have a winner. Thanks to everyone who participated. Without, as they say, further ado:
Honorable mentions: Monkottke, Anil, Monkette, Princess Monokottke.
Second place: Merlin's Corporal Flinger. I like the military rank...I could introduce him to casual visitors as The Corporal. This one might have taken the top spot had he suggested Corporal Flingr instead.
And the first place grand prize winner: Helpetica, suggested by Sonicfoundation. This is a little slice of genius. It's a play on Helvetica and contains both "help" and "pet"...it's the perfect name for a font nerd's helper monkey. The good folks from Flickr will be in touch about your free three months of Flickr Pro.

Rjukan.
After a good day of ice climbing we walked back to the car just in time to catch the last rays of light from the sun whereas the powerlines helped to lit up Rjukan.

I'm making another portfolio dress, and I can't decide between the white w/ black dots or the CW turquoise for the collar and notch. I don't have enough to do it in the same fabric.
SVFD helped East Valley's Continuous Curriculum School students celebrate good character and academic excellence today.
Battalion Chief Stan Cooke spoke to students during an all-school Awards Assembly about the PACE character traits of Gratitude and Respect. He told them "you have the power to take an ordinary day and make it extraordinary" for someone else. He said the two things people most want are to make a difference and to be appreciated. He encouraged the students to do this by "listening to others from your heart and have an attitude of gratitude." He told them, "you are unique and you are powerful."
SVFD Otis Orchards Station #4 crew members Greg Bennett, Joe Cushner and Brent Duprel joined Stan Cooke on stage to hand out the awards. Prior to the assembly, the crew showed Engine 4 to students on the playground and talked about fire safety. Thank you CCC for including SVFD in your celebration!
These were for the Sock Summit Ravelry party but they will be in the Ravelry mini mart soon! (after the sale)
The zipper is stuck and this lovely origami bustline dress may slip down. We can't let that happen, can we?
I've nicknamed this dress as my Potato Chip dress because of the old slogan:
"Rufffles have riddgges" ;-)
But, don't think to nibble or snack on me.
'Maudie', the 2016 film starring Sally Hawkins and Ethan Hawke, helped reignite interest in Maud's work. I used to watch and enjoy this movie, but Shaw Cable has changed the channel that it used to play on, and I need to get round to subscribing to the new channel which you now have to pay for. Maud had a real personality, with great determination and survival skills, living, in Nova Scotia, with a husband who was definitely not easy to live with, in poverty and with severe arthritis. No running water and no heat, for one thing.
To see the trailer (great acting in this film):

No edited 'real' photos ready to upload today, so I'm posting a few bright and cheery online jigsaw puzzles, so that I can add them to my album. I know I should be going through my old archive photos and choosing a few before deleting them from my computer as I am just about out of space, but these puzzles are so addictive. Help, lol!
"Whether it's a crossword, jigsaw, trivia, word searches, brain teasers or Sudoku, puzzles put our minds to work. Studies have found that when we work on a jigsaw puzzle, we use both sides of the brain. And spending time daily working on puzzles improves memory, cognitive function, and problem-solving skills."

Miscellaneous notes on this:
- other possible notes to Apple:
I didn't pay enough for my iPad 2. Here are two more dollars to compensate.
We are learning that if each Apple goodie cost two dollars more, the conditions in Chinese plants would be right and proper. I mean this money to help and hope you will charge more from now on.
- can you think of a good note? please add your ideas in the Comments window, below.
July 2, 2012-
This page was published in the May edition of YES! Magazine- issue 62.
___
- George mentioned a problem with this idea that would limit the response: Americans are mad at China for taking our jobs and don't want to help them.
- fair enough, but our problem is with policy makers in China and American corporations. we're not out to hurt Chinese workers. ( in fact, there are tent cities outside of Chinese plants, filled with people waiting to get these awful jobs. it's a mess from both sides. )
- in fact, if conditions improve in China, some jobs will come back to the States.
- that is already happening in cases where rising shipping and labor costs are changing the equation. see next page...
___
- one of the awful policies of Chinese management is to pay low wages in order to force people to work more hours. talk about a devil-deal.
___
- i have an odd connection to this problem:
- in 1984- the first year of the little, stand-up Macintosh- i was an Apple developer.
- i made the first scanned image software for the Mac that came from outside the company. we were shipping in March. ( it was called, "Clip 1". )
- Apple liked it.
- they ordered four hundred copies as Christmas presents for their factory workers. that factory was in Silicon Valley. *
___
- you can bet that the PR department at Apple approached management a year ago- or four years ago- with the problem of working conditions in China. they advised that it would be cheap to make it right, now, and expensive to play catch-up later.
___
- [ i didn't mail the note in the picture. saw a typo and made a text correction. the rewrite goes like this:
"Hi, Apple Folks-
I didn't pay enough for my iPad 2. The working conditions at Foxconn make that clear.
Please apply this money to the problem and charge 2 dollars more in the future."
I think that Apple marketers will object to a price change that goes above the standard "$1.99" tactic. On the contrary, running the price above the standard is a plus in this case. The word will get out what the extra charge is about. Apple has an expensive PR problem. This is a cheap solution.
___
- the Foxconn factories in China make products for Mototorola, Bell, Hewlett-Packard, Apple, and others.
___
- a performing artist and journalist, Mike Daisey, went to China and stood outside of a Foxconn factory in Shen Chen and talked to workers as they came out.
- Daisey says there are two issues: wages and conditions:
- wages would be ok by local standards if they were actually paid. they often are not.
- as for conditions- given that the cost of assembling an iPhone is about $6- coming into compliance with [existing] Chinese labor laws, … "is going to cost A COUPLE OF DOLLARS".
Source: radio show on NPR: "Your Call" yourcallradio.org/ - search 'apple'.
Mike Daisey speaks of this between counters 22:00 and 22:33.
- i sent the 2 Dollar pages to Rose Aguilar, the creator of the "Your Call" program on NPR.
- she sent more info back to me: "The same goes for Wal-Mart. If you add about 40 cents to your purchase, overseas workers would be paid a living wage. Thanks, Rose."

Feb. 18, 2012- George sent me new info from WIRED: of the two problems- wages and conditions (which includes safety), Foxconn has made a gesture to solve part of one of them- perhaps to quiet criticism:
www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2012/02/foxconn-raises-pay-of-fac...
___
Feb. 20, 2012- New York Times reporter says on NPR, this morning, that Foxconn has improved some of the wage problem and, now, some of the conditions problem in their factories. Foxconn is known for ignoring Chinese law but there may be some change coming.
___
- i have two Apple devices that were made in China, so i'm sending a second envelope:
Hi, Apple folks-
I didn't pay enough for my wonderful Mac Mini. Please find two dollars, enclosed.
If I had paid two dollars more, the working conditions at Foxconn would be fair and honorable, and your developing PR problem would disappear.
Around 1989, I designed in-house and TIE icons- static and animated- for you. I conceived the comic Hypercard animation for 'selling' Space Shuttle arms- the one where the arm picked up a button on the screen and turned it to read backwards.
I have owned many Macs and have influenced at least ten other people to go the Mac route and let Windows twist in the wind.
I love Apple.
Please make this right and charge two dollars more from now on. No one will notice on our side of the Rim.

* - [ only a quarter of the Apple order for "Clip 1" was filled- 100 copies. but that is another story.]
