What is an Executive Brand an Why is it Important?
Taking your work to the next level often means moving up the promotional ladder. You may have developed an excellent reputation and a serious set of skills in your industry, but that doesn't mean you'll always get the opportunities you want while working as a mid-level employee. You want to do more--maybe manage projects, or manage operations that require more than technical skills. You want responsibility and leadership opportunities… the chance to drive projects that interest you.
So you move up to the executive level.
But your job prospects don't end there. Working at the C-Level in your profession is less about "work" and more about management: project management, team management, company management. Because of this, you have to take into account your own desires. What kind of projects do you want to get off the ground? What kind of work environment do you want to cultivate?
In order to maximize your opportunities, you need to have an effective brand.
Does My Job Search End at the Executive Level?
Short answer: no. Just because you've reached a high level of management and responsibility doesn't mean you've hit the end of the line. But it does mean that the rules of the game have changed slightly. At this level, organizations don't want an employee: they want a leader, a coordinator, and perhaps even a visionary. That means that your media needs to reflect who you are as a professional brand.
For example, you may find yourself developing more as you work in the executive arena. You may want to take on different challenges or leadership opportunities, which necessitate a move to a different company, or different style of business (corporate to start-up, for example). In these cases, the leadership you display in one position might present you with new opportunities in other positions with other organizations.
Also developing a brand and staying up-to-date with the current job market helps you keep on top of what is happening in your industry. If you want to attract the best employees, or find the most interesting projects to work on, then maintaining a brand is important to keep your fingers on the pulse.
Do I Still Need a Resume and Cover Letter?
Of course. Executives of any level typically have resumes, for when they decide to make the move from one position to another.
This isn't because resumes are some test of their abilities: often, executives will have a reputation of some sort. But that doesn't preclude having an actual, paper resume that discusses your accomplishments.
But there is something more concrete for executives when it comes to resumes and cover letters--they illustrate a professional brand built over years of work. A solid professional resumes shows a trajectory of development in core competencies like leadership and vision. It shows not only that you can manage complex and fluid business situations, but that you already have.
But How Do I Build an Executive Resume?
Executive resumes can be longer. Considering that you are looking for a position as a very advanced member of your industry, one with the skills to manage projects and teams at their largest and most abstract scales, it stands to reason that your resume reflect the skills that you have over years of experience. A 2-3 page resume provides a solid overview of your experience without going too long.
Executive resumes are about accomplishments, not history. Some recruiters at the low- to mid-level range look to see if your resume is in chronological order, and that they can trace an uninterrupted work history. For the executive level, you want to put your skills and brand first, and fill in the details. Lean towards a hybrid chronological/functional resume for flexibility and presentation, rather than using one or the other.
Emphasize your brand and value proposition. Again, your resume isn't about technical skills or job histories (although they do play a part), it is about your ability to contribute to the success of a company. In that case, what other executives want to see in a resume is that you know your value and how it contributes to them.
You don't have to be an expert at this kind of document writing just because your an executive. For advice and guidance, work with a career management firm that specializes in executive resumes, social media audits, and/or brand consultations.
What About Social Media and the Web?
Yes! Don't forget about your social media presence. At the very least, you should, as an executive, have a top-notch LinkedIn profile that represents you and the positions you've held. An executive should have plenty of ways to discuss their professional development over time, and the LinkedIn profile is theplace to do this. If your personal brand is a web-savvy one embedded in digital industries like marketing or advertising, then it would stand to reason that you also be heavily involved in those additional platforms (like Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook).
Also, don't sell writing and thought-leadership short. If you work in a field that benefits from sharing information and networking, then keep a blog. Write about your industry from the position of a long-term professional, and highlight it on your social media channels.
Cultivate your social media by observing what others in similar situations do. Do what they do, but also don't be afraid to break away from the norm if it sets you apart in a positive way. Also, look for help in assessing your current online brand with a company that specializes in auditing social media channels. There are actually experts out there that excel in helping others coordinate their personal brand across all their media channels.
Executive Branding as a Lifestyle?
A brand doesn't have to be a life, just a lifestyle. Staying on top of your professional game and putting yourself out there are what make executives attractive for positions: they are natural leaders who work hard and integrate their personal and professional lives.
A brand doesn't have to be something you do alone. Hire a company to help you build your brand the right way, so all you have to do is focus on is managing it.
Once you have a strong, executive brand in place, you'll draw more opportunities and more chances to do the work you want to do.

Thursday night was my first time inside the Jewish Community Center's Linker Auditorium where the Center Stage company performs. Like many of you, I'm sure, I have for years been aware of the activities at 3600 Dutchman's Lane, but had never taken advantage of them. Now that I have broken that barrier I plan to be a regular attendee.
Jill Sullivan, Ericka Gibson and company.
Artistic Director John Leffert has put together a strong season of sure-to-please hits that opened last week with the 2002 hit Hair Spray. This is an ambitious undertaking that requires a full complement of more than thirty triple-threat performers. Leffert also put together a six-piece band led from the keyboard by music director Chris Bryant. The horn section struggled a little at the performance I saw but the band was otherwise solid throughout.
The company is led by Jill Sullivan as Tracy Turnblad, a chubby teen who overcomes the prejudices of television producer Velma Von Tussle, played by Annette McCulloch, to become a dancer on the Corky Collins Show. Corky is a smarmy, but savvy visionary as played by Mike Fryman. Unfortunately for McCulloch, Fryman and the company at large their performances were marred by intermittent sound problems ranging from dropped cues to poor design. The latter of these could be easily remedied by a quick trip the Doo-Woop Shop. The inexpensive rental of a couple speaker towers positioned on either side of the thrust stage would do wonders for the show's audibility and would take care of the feedback problems that occasionally overwhelmed the performers.
Back to the story. For those of you who haven't seen Hair Spray in any of its incarnations, Tracy leads a revolution to integrate Corky's show, while questing for the heart of Elvis would-be Link Larkin, played by the very talented Chad Broskey, and raising awareness of the need for positive body image among teenage girls. Tracy's sidekick and best friend is the nerdy Penny Pingleton, played by Hannah Gregory who absolutely steals every scene with her strong character choices, and effortless performance.
John R. Leffert as her mother, Edna Turnblad.
The work this company has put in with Choreographer Zachary Boone is obvious on stage. Boone has created visually exciting numbers that us the limited space to its full potential. It is a joy to watch talented dancers throw off complex choreography as if it were nothing. The ease with which Dallyn Brunck, who plays Tracy's nemesis Amber Von Tussle, sings and dances her way through "Cooties" was nothing short of amazing.
One of the most controversial songs in Hair Spray is the eleven o'clock number, "I Know Where I've Been," and low-down R&B heart-ripper sung by a secondary character, Motormouth Maybelle the African-American DJ who serves as counterpoint to both Corky Collins and Tracy's mother Edna (more on her in a minute). As Motormouth Tamika Skaggs wows the audience with her powerful interpretation of this this song that, for that moment, brings to bear the heartbreaking impact of institutionalized racism.
Artistic Director John Leffert himself takes on the role of Edna Turnblad, originally played by the flamboyant drag queen Divine who appeared in several of John Waters' early films. The character has also been played on stage by the great Harvey Fierstein and on film by John Travolta. Leffert walks a fine line as the organizational leader, and I think he is holding back to avoid the appearance of upstaging anyone. This is unfortunate, because the joy of Edna is her oversized, larger-than-life presence. What Leffert gives us is great, but left me wanting more.
As I said this is a large cast and I could easily give compliments to each member of the company for their performance. Ericka Gibson as Little Inez deserves a paragraph as does Lamont O'Neal as Seaweed Stubbs.
Leffert's set design and Butch Sager's costumes are spot on.
Hair Spray continues through July 24 at the Jewish Community Center, 3600 Dutchman's Lane. The house on Thursday was nearly full and I'm given to understand ticket sales are strong, so if you want to see this Center Stage production you better call soon. You'll be sorry you missed it.

When you come to Complete Dental Care for a checkup, you get more than a dental cleaning and exam. You also get an oral cancer screening. This treatment is a priority for your dentists, Dr. Robert Doyle, because it can help you in many ways. It can even save your life!
The goal of an oral cancer screening is to detect oral cancer at the early stages of development. If oral cancer is identified early, there is a greater chance of curing it. So, if you keep up with your routine checkups, then you should receive an oral cancer screening every six months. This can help you increase your chances of catching the cancer early.
Your oral cancer screening will be provided during the oral exam portion of the appointment. While your dentists is checking your teeth for cavities, they is also checking the gums, cheeks, tongue, lips, and throat for signs of oral cancer. If a sign is spotted, they will need to perform a biopsy, which is just sampling the tissue and sending it to a medical lab for examination. The later steps will be discussed with you at that time.
Do you have questions about oral cancer screenings in Steubenville, Ohio? If so, please contact Complete Dental Care today at 740-314-4941. Our dental team is here to help you in any way we can, even if it's just by giving you the answers you're looking for. So, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We look forward to your phone call!

Some of my favorite memories of my granny are the wonderful meals that were always available at her house. When I was young, she cooked on an old-fashioned wood cookstove. Her kitchen was always hot during the Indiana summers and always warm and welcoming during those cold and snowy winters. But whatever the weather, there was always food on granny's stove no matter the time of day. She would make big, delicious buttermilk biscuits every morning. She never made "just a few" but always made a large batch to feed whoever just happened to stop in. And there was always meat and potatoes. They were a staple in her Midwest country kitchen. She raised cows, pigs, and chickens. I remember often seeing meat hanging in her smokehouse. There was usually a pot of ham and beans, chicken and dumplings, or a pot roast simmering on that old stove. This recipe brings back lots of memories; I hope it will for you, too.
Brown meat well on both sides in the hot shortening in cast iron* Dutch oven over moderate heat. Add onion, carrot, celery, salt, thyme, pepper and 1 cup tomato juice. Cover; cook slowly until meat is fork tender, probably two to two and a half hours. Add the potatoes 30 minutes before the end of cooking time. Arrange the meat and potatoes on a serving platter; keep hot. Blend together the remaining tomato juice and the flour; add to the vegetable mixture still in the pan. Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Serve with or over the meat.
*Using cast iron is not necessary. But it is a great way to slow-cook meats.


"…there's a natural empathy here, as the pair's movements acquire a mirror relationship. The piece stresses contrasts. Movement is either graduated or manic. Isolated extremities, like flexed feet, succeed the turbulent deployment of the entire hurtling body. Episodes of silence follow volleys of percussive music; throughout Ame to Ame, the choice of music (composer Sheila McCarthy intersperses bits by Nils Frykdahl, Dawn McCarthy, Carla Kilstedt and Matthias Bossi with her own compositions) is eminently apt; while Ates' unerring lighting scheme keeps us dazzled.
"A couple, bound for the opera, wandered into the Forum by mistake, then dashed out minutes before inkBoat's latest production, Ame to Ame (Candy and Rain) began. Had they stayed, they would have found the U.S. premiere of Shinichi Iova-Koga and Yuko Kaseki's work operatic in its own way. While the only libretto was a panoply of keen gestures, extreme facial expressions, and Harpo-style physical maneuvers, the dancers' bodies sang out the physical equivalent of songs—broken, dissonant, and often hilarious. Although there was no translation of these nonverbal arias, the dancers formed a portrait of mysterious yearning and frustration that was by turns comic, lyrical, ghoulish, and haunting.
InkBoat's performers and collaborators, who work in both San Francisco and Berlin, push butoh away from ankoku butoh (the post-World War II dance of darkness) toward the more intimate form of "one dancer, one school" and "cheerful apocalypse" that was developed by Akaji Maro of Dairakudakan. While death still lurks, Koga, Kaseki, and director/choreographer/lighting designer Marc Ates use it to wrestle the solitary angels and lonely demons of self and other rather than nuclear apocalypse.
And wrestle they did. In white light ethereally littered with a white chair, table, and stool, the dancers, also in white, careered through space like sleepwalkers whose separate dreams repeatedly collided. Kaseki teetered across the stage, Koga caught and turned her, and eventually the pair moved on with affect-less drama. From beautifully crafted dreamy vignettes, accompanied by intriguing, edgy sound (by Sheila McCarthy, Dawn McCarthy, Carla Kihlstedt, and Nils Frykdahl), the couple exploded into grotesque play, bouncing belly to belly, high-stepping, flailing, and grimacing. From there they swung back into movement of refined sensitivity and timing, as when Kaseki sensuously laid her hands and head down on the tabletop and Koga pulled the table out from under her, leaving her poised exactly as she had been, now framing negative space. One of the most moving, tender moments of the evening arose when Koga used the three white props as stepping-stones for a somnolent Kaseki's blind travel, the two like clowns in a wordless Beckett play.

Chinese Official Confirms That China Ordered Labs To Destroy Coronavirus Samples

Peter Hasson Editor
A senior Chinese government official confirmed Friday that authorities ordered laboratories to destroy samples of coronavirus in early January.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo had accused Chinese officials of ordering the samples' destruction as part of the regime's cover-up of the coronavirus outbreak in its early stages.
Pompeo said on April 22 that China "censored those who tried to warn the world, it ordered a halt to testing of new samples, and it destroyed existing samples." He offered more specificity on May 6, stating that China's National Health Commission [NHC] ordered virus samples destroyed on Jan. 3.
NHC official Liu Dengfeng conceded at a briefing on Friday that the agency had ordered the labs to destroy the samples, but said that the order was given for safety reasons.

"If the laboratory conditions cannot meet the requirements for the safe preservation of samples, the samples should be destroyed on the spot or transferred to a professional institution for safekeeping," Dengfend said, according to The Wall Street Journal.
"Based on comprehensive research and expert opinion, we decided to temporarily manage the pathogen causing the pneumonia as Class II — highly pathogenic — and imposed biosafety requirements on sample collection, transport and experimental activities, as well as destroying the samples," Dengfeng said, according to the South China Morning Post.
Chinese officials repeatedly suppressed the truth about coronavirus. Chinese authorities silenced doctors, whistleblowers and journalists who sought to warn the public about the virus. (RELATED: EU Let China Censor Ambassador's Op-Ed By Removing Reference To Coronavirus Originating In China)
The majority view among the U.S. intelligence community agencies is that COVID-19 is a naturally occurring virus that accidentally leaked out of a laboratory in Wuhan, China, a senior intelligence official previously told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
China has stonewalled the rest of the world, including the China-friendly World Health Organization, from its investigation into the virus's origins.

Google Launches "Focus Mode" Feature For Android Devices
Google earlier announced that it could introduce the "Focus Mode" feature for Android devices. It seems the search giant was serious about the rollout. After a series of beta tests, the company is finally launching the new feature. With focus mode, you can stop your handset from being distracted by the unwanted notifications at inappropriate times. And, you can reuse the apps and notifications by turning Focus mode off.
Google has brought up some new features to the Focus mode. These added features are based on feedback that Google received during beta testing. These include scheduling automatic activation of Focus mode during some days and time-intervals across the week. And, there is an option to take a break, with this feature you can briefly access some apps without completely turning the Focus mode off. Henceforth, you can quickly share some urgent photos or videos with others, while the mode is on.
The introduction of Focus mode was due to smartphone addiction which has become a major concern. According to a study, one among four children along with other young users is heavily addicted to mobile phones. Not only Google, but even Apple has introduced several new features to make users get rid of this problematic addiction. And one such feature is "Screen Time".
Both Google and Apple introduced dashboards, allowing iPhone and Android users to cross-check on how long they have been using their smartphones. It must be noted that Focus mode is only available to phones which are shipped with Android 9 and 10 OS.
If we talk about Google's more new features, we have seen how the company modified its Voice Assistant. These modifications include booking a ride with the help of voice command, a new design that makes the Assistant more user-friendly, more accessing of tools. And, personalized Android interface with which you can get information related to weather reports, news, videos, and more.

Years ago, I was lucky enough to take a fiction writing class at Penn with the late, great cultural critic John Leonard. I was reminded recently—while reading Kate Cayley's remarkable short story collection How You Were Born—of a story he told our class. A year earlier he met with his friend Elie Wiesel for lunch and coffee at a diner on the upper West side, and Wiesel appeared distraught. His wife was pregnant, and Wiesel felt miserable about the idea of having a child. He didn't see how he could possibly bring a child into a world where the Holocaust is possible. A year later, shortly before our class, they met again. This time Leonard found Wiesel already there, at the same table, but his demeanor was completely changed. He stood up and greeted Leonard warmly. There wasn't a trace of distress in his manner. When Leonard sat down, Wiesel handed him a huge photo album to look through, sharing what seemed like hundreds of photographs of the new baby.
How You Were Born is an archive of anxiety. In the story "Young Hennerly," Robert Browne gets out of being drafted to Vietnam by being a student of American folklore. His work involves interviewing older people from around the country and collecting their stories. He's heard many times variations of the story Annie Reardon tells him. As a girl she was warned to stay away from the men in the trees, and especially the dangerous man who lives under a great rock. That man is so hungry, the story goes, that if he sees you he might eat you! Something about Annie Reardon's telling spooks Robert Browne. When he drives past a huge rock and a man materializes out of nowhere at the side of his car and looking for a lift, it's clear that our inner worlds hold fears that can't be escaped as easily as the draft.
My favorite story in the collection is "Acrobat." Here Cayley introduces eleven-year-old Zoë, who has plenty of reasons to feel sorry for herself. Her family has recently moved, she's bored, and she's stuck sharing a bed with her bed-wetting younger sister. But Zoë is curious about a workshop and Circus Festival taking place in her local park. When she attends, she has a transformative experience. A man with a dragon tattoo who runs the workshop chooses her for a demonstration. When he hoists her into the air, the feeling of weightlessness and freedom amazes her. Later, when she returns to the park for the Festival, the dragon man doesn't recognize her. But this rejection doesn't have quite the sting it might have: during the performance, Zoë again feels lifted by the beauty of the acrobatics. In this story, it's as though Cayley is showing us that desiring connection is not as dangerous as it might seem; Zoë's feeling of uplift isn't dependent on being seen by the dragon man.
One catch that neither Robin nor Molly could have predicted is that Jake, biological father to Robin and Molly's daughter, dies. In the first story of the collection, Robin, Molly, and now ten-year-old Emma, drive to visit Jake's mother. "What should Emma call her?" Robin asks. They don't have the vocabulary to describe the relationship of their daughter to their friend's mother, but by the end of the story a connection becomes literally visible. All the women see Jake in Emma. The narrator of another story voices a feeling common to many of Cayley's characters: "We are so tenuously linked that nothing holds us." Molly doesn't think Emma needs a name for Jake's mother. Still, the visit to Jake's mother suggests the possibility of expanding rather than constricting our ideas about how we are connected with other people.
In the end the book is Robin's. The stories put flesh on the bones of her anxieties, superstition, and dread. It's as though the stories express the many forms of fear she feels ahead of becoming a mother. Cayley shows us, in How You Were Born, that the impulse to collect and then work through anxiety imaginatively is important and powerful. The final story, "How You Were Born," provides the perfect ending to the collection. This story goes back in time to allow Robin to give an intimate account of the important trip out to visit Jake, to conceive baby Emma. There's still plenty of anxiety in the voice. But it's as though an archive has been completed and by documenting these different forms of our collective fears we can contain them, and let them go.

Q: Why are there backup messages in my SQL Log when no scheduled backups are running? While troubleshooting a "while waiting for buffer latch -- type 4" timeout error I checked the SQL Log files and there are a TON of BACKUP DATABASE and success statements. There are no scheduled backups (including T-Logs) anywhere near the time of the message below. No maintenance plans either. I also scripted out all the jobs but didn't find anything.

Perhaps these are some sort of "system backups" (I'm not the man when it comes to reading the log). However because they are running at the same time as the task for which I'm getting the buffer latch type 4 errors I'd like to get them out of the way if possible.
Any help or insight would be most welcome. Thank you!

After covering the festival remotely last year, I made the return to Montreal this year to cover the 22nd annual Fantasia Film Festival. It was definitely a very busy festival for me, with my coverage continuing well after my return to Toronto earlier this week. However, now it is time for me to put my coverage of Fantasia 2018 to rest and start planning to possibly return to Montreal once again next year.
Without further ado, here is my full wrap up of the 2018 Fantasia Film Festival!

ELIZABETH, N.J. — The Afghan immigrant accused of a terror rampage across two states vowed the "sounds" of his bombs would be heard "in the streets" along with police being shot and "nonbelievers" slaughtered, in a chilling diary released by prosecutors last night.
Ahmad Khan Rahami in the handwritten screed also praises slain al-Qaeda leaders Osama bin Laden and Anwar al-Awlaki and then spells out his terror assault in New York and New Jersey.
"Inshallah (God willing) the sounds of the bombs will be heard in the streets," Rahami wrote. "Gun shots to your police. Death To Your OPPRESSION."
He also prays to die a martyr after carrying out "a suicide attack," asking "ALLAH to not take JIHAD away … I beg for shahadat (martyrdom) … (God willing) this call will be answered."
Authorities said Rahami's journal — found on him after his arrest Monday following a gunfight with Linden, N.J., police — references pipe and pressure-cooker bombs and getting "guidance" from a former senior leader of al-Qaeda to "attack the Kuffar (non-believers) in their backyard."
He also slammed U.S. involvement in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Palestine. Portions of the journal were damaged in the gunfight, making some of the passages illegible.
Rahami, who is being held on $5.2 million bail on charges of attempted murder, was officially charged last night with using a weapon of mass destruction in the blast in New York City on Saturday night that wounded 29 people, and executing another bombing in a New Jersey seaside town earlier that day.
Rahami's fingerprints were also found on one bomb and a backpack with handwritten documents in New Jersey, prosecutors said.
He also purchased circuit boards, citric acid that is "great for bath bombs," electric igniters and other bomb-making materials, including ball bearings, according to authorities.
Law enforcement officials said they also recovered a video from a phone of a family member showing Rahami igniting "incendiary material" in a canister just two days before the bombings.
Also yesterday, the FBI said it did an "assessment" of the 28-year-old in 2014, after he was charged with stabbing his brother, and his father voiced concerns his son was a terrorist. The bureau dropped the case. A grand jury also didn't indict Rahami for the assault.
An imam who welcomed Rahami's father, Mohammed Rahami, to America said the man should have reached out to community members after reporting his son to the FBI, saying he could have prevented the past week's ?bloodshed.
"He should've came to someone, he probably could've saved his son and saved a lot of grief," said Imam Ali Jaaber of the Masjid Darul Islam mosque here. "The parents are the key to this. They have to let the community or someone in charge of the community know that the child has begun to change."
Ahmad Rahami's travels abroad — including to Quetta in northwest Pakistan — have also raised questions with U.S. Rep. Stephen F. Lynch, who has regularly visited the Middle East. Rahami, who is a naturalized citizen from Afghanistan, reportedly spent nearly a year in Afghanistan and Quetta, Pakistan, from April 2013 to March 2014.
"I have been to Pakistan a number of times and they have never let me go to Quetta because it's sort of a headquarters for the Taliban," Lynch said on Boston Herald Radio's "Morning Meeting" show. "If someone, particularly a U.S. citizen, goes back and forth to Quetta, I think that would raise a bit of a red flag for me."

Harriet Tubman House court battle a 'false hope,' judge says


BOSTON — To protect workers against physical and mental strain of working in the food, hospitality and retail industries, lawmakers must take additional steps to protect the rights of workers to a fair work week, according to advocates.
On Tuesday, in advance of a Joint Committee on Labor and Workforce Development hearing, activists gathered to discuss how unpredictable schedules and pay make it difficult for workers to find child care, schedule medical appointments and support their families.
"I'm really hoping this is the session where we can finally say, you know what, workers deserve to have respect, they deserve to know what their schedule looks like," said. Rep. Lindsay Sabadosa of Northampton.
Opponents have said the demands would put a burden on small businesses, especially with the rollout of the new paid family and medical leave benefits law that includes a new payroll tax.
Fair Work Week Massachusetts, a coalition led by Massachusetts Jobs with Justice, is pushing legislation (S 1110) filed by Sen. Marc Pacheco requiring that workers receive two weeks advance notice for schedules, 11 hours between shifts, and protection from retaliation if they are unable to work shifts. The bill lists 16 cosponsors in the 200-seat Legislature.
The bill would apply to businesses with 50 or more employees worldwide in food service, hospitality and retail. In addition to requiring at least 14 days notice of scheduling, the bill would require that when an employer hires a new employee they provide an approximate schedule with the number of hours and when those hours will be. If that approximate schedule were to change, an employer must provide a new approximate schedule in writing, and employees may request more or less hours, and whether or not to work on-call shifts.
That language defining the size of businesses was a key part of mapping the legislation to attempt to keep it from affecting smaller local businesses that are not part of chains.
"We know [the bill] will affect employers that can afford to do this, can do the right thing," said Lily Huang, the co-director of Massachusetts Jobs with Justice.
At the public hearing, Dan Vieira, a representative from Theater Owners of New England, and Ian Judge, owner of Somerville Theaters, said that the 14-day notice is unreasonable for some small businesses. Judge said that as the owner of a small movie theater, he often books the movies that will be showing only a week ahead of time. If he doesn't know the movies being shown, he is unable to anticipate his staffing needs.
A major part of the legislation would require "predictability pay" if the details of shifts are changed within 14 days. This applies to changes in location, time and adding hours. If the bill is adopted, employers would also have to pay half wages to employees if they subtract hours or cancel shifts within 14 days of the shift.
Opponents said the restrictions would result in a lack of flexibility for small businesses, especially at a time when employees have new paid and family medical leave benefits coming their way.
The National Federation of Independent Businesses Massachusetts released a statement before the hearing, condemning the legislation.
"These new scheduling policies are being considered at a time when workers have recently been granted all new, state mandated, time off benefits," said the statement. "The 2014 sick leave law guarantees 5-days of sick time, and the new 2018 paid family and medical leave law allows up to 26-weeks of combined leave. Employers will need more scheduling flexibility due to worker absences, not less."
In addition to NFIB, other organizations turned out for the hearing to oppose the legislation, including the Massachusetts Restaurant Association, Massachusetts Package Stores Association and the Retailers Association of Massachusetts.
The bill also has language to prevent workers from working "clopener" shifts, or when an employee works a closing shift one day and an opening shift the following day. The bill would give employees the right to refuse to work two shifts that occur within 11 hours of each other, without penalty from their employer. If an employee agrees to work two shifts within 11 hours of each other, they will be paid time and half for the second shift.
Recent labor victories like the minimum wage increase and paid family and medical leave were prodded by ballot question proposals. Organizers from the Fair Work Week Coalition said proposing the work week bill as a ballot question is a "long-term thought," but for now they plan to focus on speaking with legislators.
The bill also states that when an employer has additional shifts, those new shifts will be offered to current employees before hiring new employees to cover those shifts. New shifts must also be posted in the workplace for 72 hours, unless a shorter period of time is required to fill the shift.
Emma Ruff, a restaurant worker, spoke about her personal experience and she supports the bill.
"Often working doubles, or having a schedule that is back to back to back and no rest between doesn't make it really viable to live independently or provide for a family," Ruff said. "So having a set schedule and stability offers us dignity as workers and the ability to thrive, as opposed to being burnt out."
If a worker leaves a job because their employer is not complying with the bill, they would also be able to collect unemployment benefits until they find a new job.
"Massachusetts working families deserve a fair work week and a fair chance to stay afloat and alive in this economy," Huang said.

1.1.12-THE WORLD COTTON MARKET-GOVERNMENT MEASURES
Government measures
Chapter 1 - The world cotton market - Overview
An important factor explaining the location of cotton production in relatively high-cost countries is government measures that distort production and trade. Direct income and price supports for cotton worldwide ranged from $3.8 billion in 1997/98 to $5.8 billion in 2001/02. For 2005/06, direct income and price support programmes for cotton are estimated at $5 billion (see figure 1.19). Fourteen countries, representing three-quarters of world cotton production, offered direct income and price support programmes to cotton growers in 2001/02, a season of record low prices. This resulted in higher production and forced the burden of adjusting to low cotton prices on to growers in countries that did not provide similar measures of protection.
Source: ICAC
In 2005/06, the greatest government assistance per pound of cotton production was provided by the EU to producers in Greece and Spain, with support averaging $0.75 per pound of lint 14 Chapter 1 – The world cotton market Source: ICAC. Source: ICAC. production, or approximately $900 million in total (see figure 1.20). The EU announced in 2004 that 65% of the value of support for cotton would be paid to farmers directly and decoupled from current cotton production beginning in January 2006. This means that, beginning in 2006, cotton farmers in Greece and Spain received 65% of the support they used to receive, whether or not they continued to produce cotton, and only 35% of government support was based on current production. This change, known as decoupling, is leading to lower production. The EU produced 500,000 tons in 2004/05, and cotton production is estimated at 370,000 tons in 2006/07. Part of the decline in production during 2006/07 was due to poor weather, especially in Spain.
In 2005/06, direct support to cotton farmers in the United States averaged US$ 0.17 per pound of production. The total value of direct support was US$ 1.92 billion. Support in the United States included payments to farmers based on the difference between average farm prices and a target price. United States growers also received a fixed payment based on historical production. Like Europe, the United States does not attempt to restrict cotton imports in an effort to bolster domestic prices. Elements of the United States cotton programme came under specific criticism from the international community during the Doha Round of WTO trade negotiations because of the unique role played by cotton in the economies of many developing countries. During the Doha Round, the United States agreed to lower or eliminate subsidies to cotton, but only within the context of an overall agreement on agriculture. Unfortunately, by May 2007, the Doha Round had not been concluded because of a lack of an international consensus on trade reforms.
The value of government support for China's cotton sector is estimated by ICAC at $0.16 per pound in 2005/06, or about $2 billion. In contrast to Europe and the United States, China does not provide direct payments to cotton growers but instead uses a complex system of import quotas and licenses to restrict trade and maintain domestic prices above the world level. The Government of China reports to the WTO that it does not subsidize cotton. The differentials between international prices and equivalent domestic prices in China, adjusted for quality and common location, are documented including by ICAC and others. Government measures that boost cotton production have a negative effect on average international cotton prices in the short run. Estimates vary on the size of the impact, but most economists agree that the elimination of subsidies would raise average cotton prices by 5%–20%, and some estimates are higher.
Government measures that boost cotton production have a negative effect on average international cotton prices in the short run. Estimates vary on the size of the impact, but most economists agree that the elimination of subsidies would raise average cotton prices by 5%–20%, and some estimates are higher.
However, if subsidies were eliminated, production would expand in other countries within two to three seasons in response to higher prices, and many researchers feel that the long-run impact of government measures on cotton prices is probably smaller than the short-term impacts. Nevertheless, the distortions to cotton production caused by government measures are significant. In the absence of government support for cotton and other commodities, cotton production in the United States would decline by an estimated one-third over several seasons, and production in China would probably fall by about one-tenth. As a consequence, between two and three million tons of cotton production would shift from Europe, the United States and China toward lower-cost producing countries if government measures were eliminated.

C&A hires former El Corte Inglés head of womenswear
Mercedes Gorriti, who took over the manager position in womenswear in 2015, was part of Spanish childrenswear brand Gocco's founder team and was assistant manager in the retail section in Continente before signing up with the department store's group.
03 Jan 2019 — 10:00

C&A recruits Spanish talent. The company, with headquarters in Dusseldorf (Germany), recruited Mercedes Gorriti, one of the executives with the longest career in fashion business in Spain, to join up the headquarters' team. The executive was recently the head of womenswear at El Corte Inglés, from where she departed in May.
Gorriti was one of the trustworthy executives of Dimas Gimeno, former El Corte Inglés chairman, who put her in charge of womenswear management in 2015 after five years at the front of children's clothing, accessories and babycare.
With an industrial engineer degree from Icai and MBA from Iese, the executive started her professional path in supermarket chain Continente, where she was textile line assistant manager for almost a decade. In 2000, after the supermarket chain's takeover, she and some other former executives from Continente launched Gocco, turned now into one of the largest childrenswear companies in Spain.
During the first four years of the company's development, Gorriti was at the front as CEO. After leaving Gocco, the executive went back to undertaking with the launch of the brand Mummy, which reached a total of 25 stores.
Mercedes Gorriti started her carreer in Continente and she was one of Gocco's promoter
Her jump to C&A happened following the group headquarters' restructuring in Europe. In October last year, the company announced the departure of four out of the seven executive team members in the region, which now only consists of Alain Caparros, CEO; Martjin van der Zee, commercial manager; and Tjeerd van der Zee, operations manager.
Such shift was the outcome of two years of C&A's restructuring in the European market, after a generalized sales drop. The company's plan considered 1 billion euro investment and the closing of unprofitable establishments, 23 in Spain included, to start growing again in 2021.
Leading that new period, we find for the first time an executive outside the Brenninkmeijer family. In June 2017, C&A recruited Alain Caparros, who came from the fast-moving consumer goods sector, as head in the region, taking Philippe Brenninkmeijer's position.
The group concluded 2017 increasing its revenue by 4%, boosted mainly in Central and East Europe, as well as in the Portuguese and Dutch markets. The company's e-commerce business in the region, on its behalf, raised by 14% in relation to the previous fiscal year. C&A, property of Cofra Holding, has a network of 1,500 stores in Europe and has a revenue of 2.92 billion euros in the European marketplace.

A: They're a sad waste of money.
Life insurance is a terrific way to replace your income for your dependents. There's no reason to buy it for a child unless he's supporting the family.
Parents can best protect a child with life insurance by getting bigger policies on their own lives. Both parents should be covered, says Richard Freeman, a principal and certified insurance consultant at Round Table Financial Services in Westport, Ct. If Dad's an investment banker and Mom's home with the kids, her policy shouldn't just cover the cost of a nanny to replace her, he adds. It should be big enough to let Dad take a job with shorter hours closer to home, so he can have time with the kids if he's the surviving parent.
Another pitch is that the policy is a tax-sheltered investment for the child's college education. The reality: Life insurance is an expensive, inefficient way to save for a child. Your investment options in the policy are limited and overpriced, and a big chunk of your money goes to the insurer's marketing costs. And your earnings are taxable as ordinary income when you withdraw them.
Let's say you put $5,000 into a policy, and it's worth a little over $10,000 by the time Junior goes to college. You can withdraw $5,000 tax-free because i's a return of principle. You can take another $5,000 as a tax-free policy loan. But if you terminate the policy -- i.e., stop paying premiums -- the $5,000 loan immediately becomes a taxable withdrawal, says Freeman. To avoid the tax, you must maintain the policy until you die.
In a Coverdell, you have virtually unlimited investment options; the accounts are available at any bank, mutual fund, or brokerage. You can deposit up to $2,000 a year, depending on your income. Contribution limits gradually decline for single taxpayers with income between $95,000 and $110,000 and married couples with income between $190,000 and $220,000.
A 529 plan has no income requirements or annual contribution limit. Each plan offers its own menu of mutual funds. New York's 529 plan funds are managed by Vanguard Group, a first-rate, low-cost provider. State residents who are single taxpayers can deduct up to $5,000 of annual 529 contributions from their New York income taxes; couples can deduct up to $10,000 a year.

I have read a lot of different blog posts, Microsoft documentations and attended several courses (including Microsoft's 'Deploying Windows 7') to find out the most effective method to create a Windows 7 deployment image.
I now feel I have enough knowledge and experience to be able to share my process to a wider audience.
I've tried to keep this tutorial clear and concise to ensure that steps are in the correct order, as this matters!
Remember to license and activate (except for Windows as sysprep will undo Windows Activation) any required software; as this will be remembered and you won't have to perform it on each the deployed computers individually.
Hint: Any modifications you make to this user profile will be automatically copied to the local system default user profile. So if you don't use roaming profiles, this is a great time to adjust your start menu, desktop wallpaper and icons, and general profile modifications as these settings will apply to all newly created users on the system.
Head over to the Microsoft website to download Windows AIK for Windows 7, if you don't have it already. Why?
Install Windows AIK on any compatible system, this doesn't need to be your base image system (in fact it is better not to, however you can uninstall it after creating your unattend.xml if you like).
The overall idea of this utility is to create an unattend.xml file that the sysprep utility can utilise to preset settings during the Windows Setup process of the deployed image. Items like creating local user accounts, setting the Windows Product Key, setting the locale (language) information, setting network location settings and other items that you are normally presented with when installing Windows 7. As these settings are most often consistent across all of your deployment, it makes sense to set them automatically. These next few steps may seem daunting at first, however all we are doing is obtaining possible options from the 'Windows Image' that we have loaded from step 4 and importing these options into the answer file, then specifying these settings.
In the 'Windows Image' area (bottom left) select 'amd64_Microsoft-Windows-Security-SPP_6.1.7600.16385_neutral' (amd64 may also be x86 if you installed in 32bit) right-click it and select 'Add to parse 3 generalize'. This moves this option into our answer file. Now select this item in the main window, this will show you the possible configuration options in the 'Properties' window on the right. Set 'SkipRearm' to 1. Hint: Technically this should overwrite the Windows 7 rearm limit from 3 to unlimited. Sometimes this hasn't worked for me, and you could end up with a useless image after 3 sysprep's. I will show you later how to ensure to overcome this.
Any passwords you have set in the answer file are stored unencrypted. Ensure you protect this file, especially if you entered a local administrator account password.
This is an optional step, however it is a lot easier down the track to restore an image of your current system to apply updates/modifications to before you run sysprep. This also ensures that you don't run into any activation issues (as mentioned earlier Windows 7 has a maximum number of 3 rearms before the image can no longer be sysprepped, rendering your image useless for deployment).
Thanks so much for taking the time to share this with us. After slogging through page after page of microsoft misinfo and just plain wrong info in relation to getting a wim image done using the unattend answer file (been doing xp imaging for years and win 7 was just a whole new territory to conquer)this guide of your was straight forward and accurate.
Glad I could help out. I too found Windows 7 a whole new kettle of fish, which is why I felt I needed to collate all the correct information I could find in one place.
If you do find any tips, updates, errors or omissions please let me know.
Thank you very, very much for this incredibly detailed writeup! Especially the part covering the creation of the unattend.xml file saved me an enormous amount of headaches!
I once was referred to as an Image Guru by my coworkers (At least with XP and Svr 2003), Windows 7 though has proved to really tough to find any good supporting documentation to do it right the first time without breaking your system, I was able to make the images but not a good answer file that would do what I needed it to do. My hat is off and head is bowed to the real Image Guru, Thank you for this Detailed and easy to follow write up.
Thanks for your comment. Glad to hear my blog post helped you out! I found it difficult transitioning to Win7 yet alone Win8 and to find a single place which covers most of the process was hard. Let me know if you have any recommendations to update the post!
Thanks for your comment. My "workaround" was to simply image the machine prior to performing a sysprep, then I have an image to go back to and make any updates/changes without having to go through the entire process again.
Sam, great guide! Really like the way your site/instructions flow..
I'd love to bounce some questions off you without posting a ton of comments on the site. Any email/messaging ID you can share? I agree that coming from mastering windows XP sysprep/imaging.. that windows 7 is a pain to get started with!
One thing I noticed is that you state that the admin password will be in the unattend.xml file "unencrypted".. well, it looks to be encrypted in mine! (I'm using winx64sp1 with WSIM 6.1.7600.16385) and I understand this might cause a problem with autologin?
Thank you for your comments. Unfortunately in my current job I no longer image and therefore don't keep as up to date as I would like. But please, feel free to ask questions here as the community is the greatest power of support around (I am all for FOSS).
Yes, I will have to update to note that the password is now encrypted. However, better safe than sorry!
You really did a great job. You had made a comprehensive guide includes important procedure/step/points about Windows 7 Sysprep & unattend.xml. I ever created mine guide for my task reference, however yours is better! That's really wonderful and impressive!
For "rearm count limitation, if this rearm parameter reaches 3 and doesn't be ignored, then it will displays "Fatal error" message during Sysprep process, and Sysprep stop.
I ever encountered such headache problem and cannot found a good workaround, my task progress was delayed I search many posts on the Internet and eventually fortunately I found one very useful post (likes yours) to skip rearm limit, it solved my headache indeed.
I share it to you and everyone who needs it, I hope it will help someone who needs it in someday.
Can this workflow work with Windows 7 PRO [volume license]?
Yes, this workflow should work (with a few minor adjustments, mostly referring to naming) with Windows 7 Pro VL.
Thanks for putting this together Sam. Really appreciate it.
What I found were VM issues with IE 10…I am running IE9 in my image.
For this setting, why does this need to be set specifically to "AutoBVT?" What is special about that name?
For this setting, what are the implications of the "registered owner" being the same on all computers? What is "RegisteredOwner" used for in Windows and applications?
From my research, the AutoBVT user account (which stands for Auto Build Verification Test) is a standard account which was required upon sysprep (in Vista at least) in order to verify that the sysprep operation completed successfully. I believe that it has been resolved in Win7+, however I have not verified this and therefore left the setting in place to ensure success. This first setting in Parse 4 is identified as a "system wide across all systems" settings. Yes, if the same values are set in Parse 4 as in Parse 7, then everything is going to get the same name anyway, however Microsoft designed sysprep and the unattend xml to try and be more flexible.
In regards to your second question, nothing really. This is what shows in Control Panel as the registered owner, however has nothing to do with Windows Activation. When launching programs such as Office, it defaults to this value. I recommend testing different scenarios and letting me know greater detail if you have the time.
but can i ask u a question? because i dont want to install any users and only to use the built-in admin of windows all the time, my computer is home-use only, how can i do that?
There isn't really any point in using this method if it is for one computer. This process simply makes it easier if you are deploying more than 15-20 computers. In a single computer situation, you might as well just install it from the DVD as normal.
So, if you are buying desktops WITHOUT volume licensing for Office 2013, how can you install it without putting in a single license that gets copied (and potentially fails) authentication?
It seems a pretty straight forward answer to me, however if you aren't using Volume Licensing, a KMS or MAK, i.e. single retail editions of Office, then you should install Office on the first computer without activating it, image it, then log into each imaged computer and enter its individual product key and activate it. Basically there are the right tools for each job, and if you don't have the correct tools, you either make do or get the right tools. Remember if you need to image the computers again, deactivate Office before wiping. Otherwise it may be a long time on the telephone to M$.
Excellent guide sir! Thanks for all the time you put into this.
I just started working on this project and right away just running a very basic test without unattend, I find that customizing desktop features, such as background, start menu, IE home page, etc., does not survive sysprep. All of these settings are reset to default after sysprep'ing. Any idea why that might be?
Yes that is expected behaviour. In order to copy the customised profile into the default profile, you need to stipulate this setting in an unattend file. Refer to Section 2 Point 8 on the third declaration category where it states "CopyProfile: true". Greater detail here.
I only have one issue : I entered my product key for windows 7 in the first logon command and Windows show that is is activated afterwards when I check it in Control Panel.
However … When the mini setup starts it asks to enter a Product Key. Can I disable that somewhere as I enter the product key via the answer file?
What are you referring to by mini setup?
Hello, just wanted to drop bty and first say this is an EXCELLENT guide for those of us who have very simplistic imaging needs. Windows 7 has been a beast to wrangle and this guide is picture perfect.
I only have one question: You specify Windows 7 Enterprise; I don't think the version matters much, at least in terms of using Pro instead of Enterprise, am I correct?
Thanks for the positive comment! Yes all versions of Windows 7 I believe will work. I more used Enterprise as I utilised a single Enterprise License Key.
Quick question for you, in Section 4 : Image before sysprep, you say to upload the image before syspreping. So in audit mode once you have the administrator profile setup the way you like it (I have copyprofile:true in my answer file) you then copy the image? We use WDS and I can't upload any image to the WDS server without syspreping the machine so can you elaborate more on how you do this? I only ask because I have somehow screwed my image up after multiple syspreps, and my answer file does not seem to be coping the profile anymore and I am going to build another image and want to save a master this time.
I don't image with WDS, therefore I am unable to comment.
With WDS, you can create a checkpoint before sysprep. The checkpoint creates a restore point to the un-sysprep'd image. After running sysprep, upload the prep'd image for deployment. On WDS you'll see that your image now has a "sub-branch". So you'll have the pre-sysprep checkpoint, and below it will be the post-sysprep.
A few months down the road, maybe you want to go back to the checkpoint to install updates or other software. You can do that (and delete the sysprep "branch", so you don't lose any rearms. After the updates, do the same thing: Create a checkpoint pre-sysprep, then run sysprep and send the prep'd image up.
great tutorial! i didn't see this page in time and did not do Step 2 where one enters Audit mode, i merely setup a user and configured the machine. will the CopyProfile: true setting essentially correct my mistake and copy the machine and user account tweaks when i deploy the sysprep image?
No, you will run into issues. The CopyProfile only works on the built-in temporary Admin account utilised during Audit mode. You can, however, manually copy your new user account profile into the default.
I am about to do this for the first time and I have a question.
I am using Sysprep so I am on the built in Admin account and have not set up a user or a password, so what password would I be using?
Thanks for the great guide, this is way easier to understand than the MS (supposed) help files.
This is where you set the Administrator Password, so it can be anything you want.
My company has bought some laptops that were configured with win 7 pro with windows already activated. There was no windows 7 product key sticker but was able to attain the key using a third party program and its the same key on all laptops. I have placed this key into my answer file in the windows shell setup component in the specialize section. Do i need to place either of the first logon commands in the shell setup component in the oobe section that you have listed in your guide?
I would assume yes as long as the key is the same for all machines. If they are individual keys for each machine then this cannot be automated unless you create a csv file with the MAC address and the key paired, then you will have to create a script to retrieve the appropriate key. The first cscript sets the key in the OS and the second starts auto activation.
Can you tell me how long should it take to build this image?
Yes obviously the version numbers have changed since I wrote the article.
I am so glad for this… I am new to using this method of deployment for my images, but it has really helped me with the 35 or so images I have deployed. Only about 100 more to go.
The issue I am coming across though is that Office activation using KMS has become an issue. I don't see anything in here about "SYSPREP"ing Office specifically, but my research online and experience locally is showing that unless this is done, every computer deployed with the image esentially maintains the Office machine ID for the original. This causes issues with KMS activation because you never meet or maintain the minimum unique computer request threshold for the machines to KMS activate.
I am wondering if you have thoughts on this, any modifications for it, and or a potential solution if someone has rolled out 30 or 40 units before finding the issue.
Thanks again for a good walk through.
Glad this method (and this post) has been of use to you.
the only info I can find on this error is about deploying onto a USB, but I'm not, just deploying an image stored on USB HDD.
I'm beginning to wonder if it's my method of capturing the image.
I use DeployStudio PXE imaging, similar to Norton Ghost or FOG. FOG might be something worth looking into (http://www.fogproject.org) in your situation to utilise the LAN for imaging rather than an external USB drive?
Thanks for that, Just thought I'd add something interesting I found: I was using a USB configured with lynux "YUMI" ISO multiboot to load my Windows PE for Macrium Reflect imaging and deployment software. If I happened to boot up Windows 7 with this plugged in, even though I chose to boot off the Hard drive instead of USB, it would fail.
If I reboot the system without my USB plugged in, it works fine.
Is there a way to let the System Automatically log in as Administrator without having a password?
During the Windows Setup, I get a red X "User's Password must be changed before logging in at this time". and I can just leave the password empty, and it will accept that as changed, but I can't seem to get it to do that automatically.
I don't believe its possible for automatic log in with no password set. And not something I would recommend. Is this to make it easier for you to activate additional software etc then set the password afterwards?
Thanks for that, It's just to make it easier for Servicing department and customers – as they send out a replacement hard drive to a customer. They can set it up how they like afterwards, but initially I just wanted it to deploy as per the original system they received, with no password set.
At the end of Step 5 you instruct to "Image the computer." How do you do this? Sorry, I'm a noob!
There are so many different methods to accomplish this and they are all quite detailed I unfortunately don't have the time to write an article on them.
Look into FOG, Norton Ghost, SCCM and see if you get the idea.
I have captured an image in audit mode leaving the local Administrator account password blank. I have deployed this image using SCCM and the image is successfully copied to the new machine. Windows then tries to login with the Administrator password but displays that the username or password is incorrect despite the fact that the password is blank. When I hit enter on the password prompt, sysprep to oobe mentioned in the answer file executes successfully. I am confused what password is windows using here as it is set to blank for the administrator account. Is it possible to automate this process as I do not want to go to each computer and hit enter during this prompt. Your inputs are much appreciated.
I think in order to utilise auto login a password must be specified. Have you tried creating another image with a password to see if the auto login works?
Got this issue resolved by removing the Specialize and Audit system pass in the answer file, Windows did not seem to take that too well. The first image I captured contained the Administrator Password for which I used Auto-Login in the audit system phase but Windows was not reading the answer file while logging in due to which I had to create an image without an administrator password and set the Administrator password via SCCM.
Excellent, thanks heaps for the follow-up!
You will need to perform Section 5 of my guide.
Thanks for the comment. You will need to run it as administrator. This can be done by one of two ways. First is to start an elevated command prompt and navigate to the sys prep folder and run the command from there [recommended]. The other is to right-click on it and select run as administrator and yes to the UAC.
If you are in a locked down environment though you won't be able to do this. You will have to reinstall fresh [or reset the local administrator password utilising a free linux iso image ;)].
I want to thank you for this amazing guide. We have been using your documented imaging process at my office for more than a year and it has worked perfectly. One issue we are running into is that the SetupComplete.cmd isn't deleting the unattend.xml file from the image once complete. I was wondering if you might have any suggestions as to anything we can try/change?
Thank you heaps for the positive comment. It is great to hear how some of my writings can help people. Please feel free to provide me with any updates or notes which you feel may be helpful in thickening out the guide.
A few items could be causing this issue. First could be permissions. Second could be boot order.
I doubt it would be permissions, however it may be worth investigating if newer versions of Windows applies different install level permissions on files which require elevated privilege to remove the file. There may be a switch that can be passed into the script to provide it with this.
If its the boot order, what I mean by this is that the script could be running too early – sometime before the dependancies are fully loaded. Maybe the disc isn't mounted yet when its running from RAM or maybe the system isn't ready to support the deletion of something. In this situation the easiest method to check is adding a sleep into the script. Even 300 seconds (5 minutes) would be a suitable time to test it out.
And maybe the third, but I didn't want to put emphasis on this however it must be noted. User error [oh no he said it!]. Maybe there is a typo or variable inconsistency?
Hoping this helps. Please get back to me if any of these helped you or if you found a great solution.
Following your instructions, i still get the prompt to create a user when the PC loading for the first time. I thought i was suppose to only get prompted for a PC name but not to create a User.
That is correct, if all of the entries are made in the sys prep xml then you should not be prompted to create a user. Make sure you check over each step – because user account details are set in two separate places. Hope this helps.
my question is : can we deploy the image without sysprep and perform a remote sysprep (with a script or send the cmd), like that we have just to keep one image instead of two?
Thanks for your comment. Yes that would be possible especially now with PowerShell. You will have to make yourself prepared for it though. For example, you would need a local administrator on the computers with the same credentials so you could connect to them remotely. You would also need to make sure the computers you wanted to got one script and the others received another. Easiest way to accomplish this is time – simply only send the first script when all the computers who should receive it are on the LAN. You could get fancier with MAC addresses and pxeboot if you wanted.
I hope this helps to provide you some guidance. I'm happy to demo and document the process if required.
When deploying my image, during the "Preparing the system for the first boot" stage, i get prompted for a user name & computer name. It appears it is not using the local Administrator account to automatically login during this stage and I'm not sure why?
Thanks for this great step by step guide. I followed exactly but I could not capture it using mdt. I was abble to boot to winpe using mdt litetouch script but at the sysprep step, it errors out like "Litetouch deployment failed, Return Code = -2147467259 0x80004005". Is it because of the sysprep was already done early in the steps and could not find that sysprep file? I need to capture it as wim file. Can you help please. Thanks!!
Thank you for the guide! I was wondering if you or anyone you know has tried smartImager. We are looking at it and I was wondering if you had any feedback on simplicity of use or how it plugs in to WDS to deploy Windows images.
This is a great guide for mass-imaging. But this uses a single unattend.xml to set all the first startup parameters (language, time zone, user account, etc); I'm currently using an unattend.xml that will setup and format partitions (I reuse hard drives somewhat frequently) before bringing the image down to install on a computer. Is there any way to merge the two together into a single unattend.xml? I've gotten it to work by linking the partition xml file via the imaging server, and the startup config xml via the image directly, but I was hoping there was a better way to do it.
So many tutorials on the internet that just say, create your unattend file, then go to the next step….. finally someone has gone into the details on HOW to create the unattend file and all other settings. I was so close to giving up on sysprep but the simplicity of this guide has shed light on so many things.
Does the unattend.xml file that you create in section two just have the entries that you describe or does it contain many other entries?

A prominent Republican from the Ardoyne area of North Belfast has been refused bail at a High Court hearing in the city. Eddie Copeland has denied charges of kidnapping, false imprisonment, assault and threatening to kill another person.
Thirty-one-year-old Eddie Copeland was remanded in custody a week ago on charges arising from the abduction of a man from a betting shop in Ardoyne two days previously. The alleged victim was Patrick Shannon, also from Ardoyne.
The prosecution lawyer said that Patrick Shannon was known to police as a drug dealer, and that he had been subjected to paramilitary-style beatings and shootings.
The court heard that, earlier this week, Mr Shannon had contacted the RUC and indicated that he wished to withdraw his statement in which he allegedly named Mr Copeland.
The lawyer said that Mr Shannon was indicating that his family, including his 70-year-old mother, had been threatened and instructed that the charges must be withdrawn. He claimed that bore all the hallmarks of paramilitaries and the prosecution alleged that Mr Copeland was the senior IRA man in North Belfast.
Mr Copeland's lawyer said that he denied any part in kidnapping, issuing threats or using intimidation against Mr Shannon and his family. The judge said that there was extremely strong evidence against Mr Copeland and refused bail.

I love a nice crispy buttery pastry. Thank goodness I live in the capital of pâtisserie land ! You are never far from a good boulangerie that serves a wide range of beautifully made treats of tasty pastry both savoury and sweet.
I like to make it at home however my dough making skills are laughable. I tried it twice before and it's safe to say that this is not my speciality. So I buy ready made and cook really nice recipes the easy way. The safe way. The way that I know all will enjoy.
One of my favourite tarts to make is apple tart. Here is the simplest method of make the most moist aromatic and crispy base tart tatin. I have tried this method with not just apples but pears and it worked well. I must point out that you need a pan for this that doesn't have a plastic handle, as the pan will go into the oven. A way to over come this is by leaving the oven door open so the handle doesn't melt in the oven. This is not very safe if you have children. If like me you have a pan with a removable handle than this is THE perfect solution.
NOTE: I am cutting the apples into cubes so my children can eat it easily. You can slice the apples as thick as you want of cut them as you wish.
I am using some apples that have been in the fruit bowl for few days. I always try to use fruit and vegetables that are neglected because they don't look 'perfect' and shiny, a few bruises and wrongly skin doesn't mean you through it away (food that is!) cook with it, it will taste good, jut cut out the 'damaged' bit, reduce waste that way.
Step1- Peal and dice the apples.
Step 2- In a pan place the butter and sugar together and mix, then add the apples. Cook for few minutes on medium heat.
Step3- Add the spices and mix gently till the sugar becomes sticky trickle like constancy. Then remove the pan from the heat and remove the clove and cinnamon stick.
Step 4- Take the puff pastry out of the fridge and with a fork make some holes into the pastry.
Step 5- Cover the pan with the pastry making sure you tuck the pastry inside the pan. Then place in the oven 180C till the pastry is golden.
Step 6- Carefully take out the pan from the oven and turn the pan into a serving plate. Serve hot with cream, ice-cream or custard.


Each year a number of young people leave school and do not progress into Education, Employment or Training; these individuals are then classed as NEET (Not in education, employment and/ or training). Alongside this there are a number of processes that identify those young people who are risk of NEET, to support early intervention and successful transition. The local authority is currently in the implementation phase of the Blaenau Gwent NEET Reduction Strategy 2011- 2014 (*please see useful documentation section for a direct link). In line with this a co-ordinated approach has been developed to sourcing provision, supporting continued engagement and re-engagement in relation to young people.
The following Tier System has been created to support professionals and young people alike, to easily access appropriate provision suited to their needs. This approach has been adopted from the Swansea and Wrexham model, which is widely used throughout Wales and is classed as an example of good practice.
Within each tier (See model below), you will find a direct link to the Provisions Directory, which gives you a detailed description of available services within Blaenau Gwent. Additionally the link also provides you with information regarding the tier each provision falls into; its target audience; eligibility criteria; funding status and timeline. The directory will be continually updated in line with the emergence of services and changes to current service structures.
