Maine Department of Labor Adopts Final Rules for Earned Paid Leave Law
AUGUSTA - The Maine Department of Labor (MDOL) has adopted the final Rules for Maine's groundbreaking Earned Paid Leave Law, which ensures employees of businesses with more than 10 employees can earn up to 40 hours of annual paid leave starting in January 2021.
It is estimated that the vast majority of Maine workers will be able to accrue and use paid leave under the law, with some estimates totaling 85 percent. Maine is the first state to permit using this leave for reasons outside of illness, as long as employees give their employer reasonable notice.
Gov. Janet Mills signed the Earned Paid Leave Law in May 2019, after working with a diverse group of stakeholders to create a consensus to support Maine workers who lacked paid leave. It received strong bipartisan support in the Legislature and an endorsement from the Maine State Chamber of Commerce. MDOL was directed to lead the laws implementation.
"The unprecedented crisis created by COVID-19 has made paid leave of crucial importance to Maine workers, many of whom have been forced to balance their familys health and their economic security," said Commissioner Laura Fortman. Maine is a national leader with this law, which will go far to help Maine workers today and will help support our workforce into the future.
The Earned Paid Leave Law applies to employers with more than 10 workers in Maine for 120 days or more in a calendar year, except for seasonal industries as defined in the statute. Employers covered by the law must provide employees with one hour of paid leave for every 40 hours they work, up to a maximum of 40 hours of paid leave per year.
The law, "An Act Authorizing Earned Employee Leave" (26 MRS 637) goes into effect on January 1, 2021. While MDOL itself was charged with adopting the Rules to implement the statute, the MDOLs Bureau of Labor Standards is charged with its enforcement.
MDOL held 10 public listening sessions last fall on the law prior to the formal rulemaking process. It also held a virtual public hearing and received written comments on the draft Rules, responses to which have been posted online at maine.gov/labor.
The Rules provide clarity to employers, workers, and others on how the Department intends to implement the statute. To find more information:

Study of interspouse communication and adoption of family planning and immunization services in a rural block of Varanasi District. p. 110
VM Gupta, R Jain, P Sen
Interspouse communication was studied in some pertinent areas which have an important bearing on day to day transactions. The level of such communication measured on a three-point scale was studied for its role on acceptance of family planning and immunization services. 200 currently married females residing with their husbands in a rural block of Varanasi, in the reproductive age group, with at least one child aged 1-3 years were selected and interviewed. Scores were ascribed for 12 selected items of conversation according to frequency of conversation on a three point scale based on which high, medium and low communicators were delineated. In this study high, medium and low communicators were found to be 14%, 40% and 45% respectively. Topics of importance which never featured in interspouse communication were menstrual problems (44%), when to have first child (82.5%) and birth spacing (48.5%). Interspouse communication was better in upper castes and joint families. Literacy status of both husband and wife and per capita income of the family revealed positive relationship with inter-spouse communication. Adoption and practice of family planning methods as well as full immunization coverage of the child in the family were observed to be higher among high and medium communicators as compared to low degree of communcators (p < 0.001).

Coverage of Maternal Care Services in the state of West Bengal. p. 116
RN Sinha, S Dasgupta, D Pal, NK Mondal, PR Karmakar, B Baur, AK Mandal
Evaluation of the Coverage of Maternal Care Services was conducted during the year 1999 in the entire State of West Bengal, Urban poor localities of randomly selected three Municipal Corporation areas and 'high-risk' urban wards or villages of West Bengal that had reported AFP cases in 1998. It was observed that mothers who had three or more antenatal check-ups varied between 54% to 82% in different study areas. Tetanus Toxoid coverage varied between 83.5% to 93.4% being lowest in high-risk areas. Only a very small section of mothers (12.7% to 23.7%) consumed 100 or more Iron and Folic acid tablets during pregnancy. 'Danger Signs' of pregnancy were informed to only 21.1% to 38.2% of the pregnant mothers. Proportion of home deliveries varied between 16.7% (Calcutta) to as high as 72.7% (high-risk areas). Deliveries conducted by untrained personnel were 60.8% in high risk areas, 38.1% in State clusters and between 14.2% to 29.4% in the three urban areas. Vast majority of mothers (78.8% to 88.4%) received no post-natal check-up.

Risk factors of diarrhoea among flood victims : a controlled epidemiological study. p. 122
NC Mondal, R Biswas, A Manna
The concept and practice of 'disaster preparedness and response', instead of traditional casualty relief, is relatively new. Vulnerability analysis and health risks assessment of disaster prone communities are important prerequisites of meaningful preparedness and effective response against any calamity. In this community based study, the risk of diarrhoeal disease and its related epidemiological factors were analysed by collecting data from two selected flood prone block of Midnapur district of West Bengal. The information was compared with that of another population living in two non-flood prone blocks of the same district. The study showed that diarrhoeal disease was the commonest morbidity in flood prone population. Some behaviours, like use of pond water for utensil wash and kitchen purpose, hand washing after defecation without soap, improper hand washing before eating, open field defecation, storage of drinking water in wide mouth vessels etc. were found to be associated with high attack rate of diarrhoea, in both study and control population during flood season compared to pre-flood season. Attack rates were also significantly higher in flood prone population than that of population in non-flood prone area during the same season. Necessity of both community education for proper water use behaviour and personal hygiene along with ensuring safe water and sanitation facilities of flood affected communities were emphasized.

Nutritional status of adolescent girls of a slum community of Varanasi. p. 128
N Singh, CP Mishra
In order to assess nutritional status of adolescent girls of a slum community of Varanasi and factors influencing them, this study was carried out on 70 girls belonging to the age group 13 to 18 years. The study subjects were selected from Sunderpur, an urban community of Varanasi, by adopting appropriate sampling methodology. The approach adopted for the study was a cross sectional one. The tools in the study were pre-designed and pre-tested schedule, weighing scale, steel anthoropometric rod and measuring tape. The techniques of the study included interview method, clinical examination and anthropometry. In all, 70.0% adolescent girls had BMI < 20%; 51.43% study subjects were suffering from Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED). Stunting (Height for age alpha 90%) was present in 10% of adolescent girls. Their average Weight, Height, MAC were 83.45%, 93.08% and 82.05% of the corresponding estimated reference values. Significant association of common parameters (viz., age, caste, income, type of family, working and literacy status) with nutritional status of study subjects was not observed in this study. However, lesser undernutrition in large families (> 6) indicated role of familial support in prevention of undernutrition in adolescent girls.

Read and listen to what a few of our parents have to say!
"We enrolled our son in the Toddler full day program at Acorn when he was 18 months old. It was so important that we find a place that would care for him the way that we would. When we visited the school, we saw a true-to-life classroom with child sized everything, from a working kitchen area, to the napping room (night stands and all). Not to mention the 'outdoor classroom' where the children have room to run and safe/age appropriate equipment. The campus is beautiful with animals, gardens and everything that we wanted him to be surrounded with. We were not familiar with the Montessori philosophy, but quickly learned that it involved embracing each child strengths, interests and natural curiosity to foster learning. This has been an excellent approach and our son has flourished at Acorn. We are now the proud parents of an intelligent, happy, loving and respectful little boy! Thanks Acorn!"
"We have two daughters that have been at the school for the last 4 years. They'll both be returning in the fall as first and third graders. I can't say enough about what the school has done for them, particularly my older daughter. She was a late talker, which impacted her social skills and self esteem. We have seen such a dramatic change in her since she's been at Acorn. Her confidence level is through the roof. The Montessori approach is great in that the students learn from each other and take on a mentoring role when they are the senior members of their class. The academic program at Acorn is also very strong. Both of my daughters were reading and writing after attending Kindergarten and have developed very strong math skills for their ages. I can't speak to the other Montessori schools in the area, although we did look at all three before picking Acorn. I think the Montessori approach in general provides tremendous benefits in many areas, so it's definitely something parents should consider when looking at preschools."
The Montessori classroom focuses on self-initiated learning and is set up so each child can excel at his or her own pace.
"We have been at Acorn for the past 4 years and we absolutely love it! The Montessori classroom focuses on self-initiated learning and is set up so each child can excel at his or her own pace. My son is starting kindergarten next year and he is already reading. They also really learn how to be kind and respectful of one another too! The school starts out at 6 months and goes all the way up to 6th grade. My kids started out at 18 months in the Toddler house. Once I saw the little toddler beds and night tables for them to nap at, I knew this was the place for my kids. Before and after care is also available, the school is open from 7:30 am to 6 pm, which was important for us as a dual-working-parent family."
The teachers were amazing; the depth of their commitment and their patience were so apparent.
"We have been at Acorn for a year; our son started in the Toddler House when he was just shy of 2 years old. When I walked onto the campus, I felt that this was the place I would have wished to go to school ... and the Toddler House made him immediately feel at home. The teachers were amazing; the depth of their commitment and their patience were so apparent. I felt listened to and respected, and knew that they would do the same for my son. I've since met other children who have grown up at Acorn, and have been impressed with their maturity, thoughtfulness, creativity, and sensitivity to the world. We both work outside the home, so it was important to me that my son feel at home at his school. Acorn teachers and students have become like a second family."
I really appreciate the school's emphasis on respect for others, from all walks of life.
"My children have attended Acorn for 1 1/2 years. The school has provided a nurturing environment with academic challenges that meet the needs of both of my, two very different, children. The Montessori materials fascinate and educate my children. The teachers are first rate. They have learned to work with my children's individual personalities and interests. I can tell that the teachers genuinely care. The school offers wonderful after school activities and really terrific field trips (performing arts, art, music, dance, environment, sciences). I really appreciate the school's emphasis on respect for others, from all walks of life. Acorn encourages parental involvement and offers many different ways to contribute. Finally, an unexpected benefit, through our activities at this school our family feels part of a community."
The teachers are so experienced and all of them are certified, not just as day care providers but teachers.
"Our 2 and 1/2 year old daughter simply LOVES her new school. The teachers are so experienced and all of them are certified, not just as day care providers but teachers. It is not just a childcare center, but a great school. My daughter has already learned her letter sounds and counting. They have a music director that comes to class ... they even get to cook their own snack!"

Lately we've been getting a lot of request for Canine Good Citizen training, so it seems right to discuss the program and why we think it's so important.
What is The Canine Good Citizen (CGC)?
As I mentioned before, the Canine Good Citizen training program is binary. On one side, it's about having a well mannered dog, but on the other hand it's equally about responsible dog ownership. The CGC is a non competitive test composed of 10 simple exercises. It's a pass or fail sort of thing, and you have to pass all 10 items to pass the test.
All of our basic training packages are designed with simple training goals to prepare dogs and their owners to effectively pass the CGC.
The behaviors highlighted in our training programs are things that dogs and handlers should know and be able to demonstrate in private or public with varying levels of distractions. Skills like SIT, DOWN, STAY, HEEL, LEAVE IT, and COME help ensure success even for dogs with aggression issues. Your dog's ability to execute the prescribed behaviors will allow your friends, family and neighbors to witness what's expected of a well behaved dog. We want all of our clients to meet this standard. We pride ourselves on them having the type of control on their dog that invokes onlookers to compliment them on their dog's behavior.
Looking at the bigger picture… High standards of dog behavior and ownership are necessary to keep dogs in people's homes and out of shelters. Dogs and owners who uphold this standard of canine behavior will improve the overall perception of all dog breeds. Breed perception is particularly important with all the dogs being added to the restricted dog lists here in LA. Additionally, if breeders, rescues, and shelters inform and persuade perspective buyers to aim for a CGC title, they can help set more dogs up for success in their new homes.
If you're interested in canine good citizen training or just interested in taking the test, schedule an evaluation or call us at (323) 325-5251.

Passive FTP: Activates the 'Passive FTP' option for connecting FTP servers. Use this option if your FTP server requires this.
Workaround for 1Y-Difference-Problem: When connecting a Unix-FTP-Server it can happen that the file times are displayed exactly one year wrong. (This problem was officially confirmed by Microsoft and is not caused by Easy2Sync: Q284455 http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q284455&gssnb=1) This can of course lead to problems in the synchronization. You can avoid this problem by activating this option. Easy2Sync will then add exactly one year to each file on a ftp server. If you want to configure this on a per-task basis, change the options within the task (last page of the task properties).
Workaround for DST Difference: Compensates a 1-hour difference.
Workaround for incorrect umlauts: Activate if German umlauts are replace by strange characters.
Charset: If you have files with non-ascii characters (e.g. Umlaute, East-European or Asian characters) in their filenames, it can be necessary to enter the right charset here.

Ex-Rocori Superintendent Pleads Guilty to 4 Exposure Counts
Scott Staska, photo courtesy of the Stearns County Jail
ST. CLOUD, Minn. (AP) -- The former superintendent of the Rocori School District has pleaded guilty to four counts of indecent exposure under a plea deal.
Scott Staska agreed to complete 80 hours of community work service within 60 days and undergo a psychosexual evaluation.
Staska entered his plea Friday in Stearns County court. The plea agreement dismisses the remaining 15 counts of indecent exposure.
Staska was accused of exposing himself at stores in St. Cloud and Waite Park between May 2017 and April 2018. Staska pleaded not guilty to all 19 counts in May.
The judge ordered Staska to return for sentencing Jan. 31.
Staska had been superintendent since 2002. The Minnesota Association of School Administrators named him the state's top superintendent in 2010.

#1 Son: Mom, my computer is broken.
#1 Son: When I try to start it up I get a weird error message and when I press [OK] it reboots and the same thing happens over and over.
Mom: What does the error message say? Exactly.
#1 Son: Something about 'lsass.exe access denied' and then a message about something trying to access something it didn't have rights to.
#1 Son: Nothing! When I woke up this morning it wouldn't boot.
Mom: I don't think this is an over-the-phone thing. I'll look at it when I get home.
#1 Son: OK. I'm going to use your computer then because I have to get this finished.
Mom: Download anything and you will die!
So, guess what I did last evening? Of course #1 Son was gone when I arrived home. I turned it on his computer and booted it up.
It wouldn't boot in safe mode. [lsass.exe access denied] It wouldn't boot to a command line. [nyah nyah nyah nyah] I could get to the repair console, but not really do anything from there that would help. I could reinstall XP, but I tend to think of that as a last-resort solution.
In the end, I pulled out the hard drive and slaved it to my (nice, well-behaved, well-protected, working) computer, manually restored a few strategic config files from a prior restore point, put everything back together and blah, blah, blah (I'm sure all 10 of my readers are fascinated by this).
Welcome back to your desktop. Have a nice day.
I ran a virus scan on both computers, just in case. Nothing was found. The cause of the "breakage" will remain a mystery.
Yes, I realize our family is a little backwards. Most people would expect that it would be me calling my techie son to help fix my computer because it's doing something weird. Nope. We're the opposite. I built both of these computers, set up our home network, etc. I love to push buttons and tweak things and figure out how stuff works. For me, technology is a toy. For #1 Son, technology is a tool. He just wants it to work consistently and on demand, without regard to why or how.
I want it to work too. But I can't say that I didn't get a little bit of technoid geeky satisfaction from the little interlude.
It seriously cut into my knitting time, though.

Four Winds Fantasy
Posted by Charles P. Gill on July 11, 2017
Four Winds Fantasy / Four Winds Fantasy DX - XBLIG, iOS, Windows (2011)
by ARC8games
Xbox Live Cover (Original Version)
Released for the first time in October 2011 on the Xbox Live service under the Indie category, Four Winds Fantasy is a very peculiar yet rich gaming experience. It's hard to tell if it's a genuine masterpiece or a mediocre failure, but it's worth giving a shot, especially considering the mere 80 Microsoft Points it'll cost you. A DX version was released a few months later for the iOS, and so was a so-called DX Championship Edition in early 2012 for the PC. They both feature additional content, like extra characters facesets and achievements.
The game actually looks and sounds like garbage. But let's get a closer look… The adventure open on a very short "cutscene" that sets the background. Four Winds Fantasy isn't about being a Chosen Hero Saving the World in the Name of Justice and Peace. No, you just have to settle some matters with your son. The game isn't very long though, and the gameplay is far from memorable, as it's really just a weird action-RPG. What matters here is how it provides sort of an experimental and contemplative experience, like a middle ground between Yume Nikki and the Mother series. There are numerous references to the latter, as well as Mother 2 influences acknowledged by the game designers themselves, which seem to confirm this.
Unfortunately, the game world only features a village and a cave. It does have its share of surprises, however. The village has some fucked up architecture, and is populated by very weird-looking characters who speak seemingly deep but nonsensical lines, and the caves house similarly deranged up foes. Where the game's real blunder lies is in its terrible collision detection. It gets very annoying when you unexpectedly collide with a monster and get harmed as a result. This actually makes the game quite difficult, as the protagonist only has three hearts to his health mater, and there are very few items around to heal. However, this flaw unexpectedly becomes part of the gameplay when you realize it's possible to walk faster by grazing the walls, which turns Four Winds Fantasy into an explotable speedrun-minded game. Yet this doesn't save the game from its obvious blunders, but it's forgivable for a $1 game considering it's almost an hour long and it's actually replayable. There are three different endings, and you can even submit you time to the leaderboard if you're playing with the PC version!
The development team QUIMDUNG (now renamed to QUiKDiNG for reasons obvious to British gamers), was composed of only two guys called BankBank and GHXYK2), and they didn't hold back on this strange gem. They kept true to their warped visions for the whole game. That's what define Four Winds Fantasy: it has nerve from the title screen up until the end. It feels like raining meteors crashing down the earth. Hideous, simplistic, colorful, deformed, strange, disturbing. The gamer can't be but mesmerized by this otherworldly landscape. How can this game run on the same system as Vanquish, Gears of War and BlazBlue? The soundtrack is on par with this excruciating nonsense – the title theme is actually pretty soothing compared to the background musics in themselves, which will literally make your ears bleed. A blend of cheesy keyboard tunes and unsettling noise, they produce an explosive mixture that borders on the inaudible. The whole experience really feels like the game designers wanted to force their artistic conceptions on the gamer by driving it into its eyes and ears.
So, in the end, what is there to think of Four Winds Fantasy? It's an existential question. Is this game an hardcore RPG fanboy's frenzy? Is this a parody saying "fuck you" to the RPG genre as a whole, including the Mother series, from which it draws so much inspiration? Is this an expression of hatred towards modern games that put technical prowess above all, towards pompous artsy productions that actively seek to be unintelligible, or towards both? Is this a mediocre game conceived by a childish weirdo who actually thinks it's a decent game? Isn't this just completely bonkers? We'll probably never know, and that, in a rather fascinating way, is what makes this game worth playing.
