About Depths
From the dean of Scandinavian noir and internationally bestselling author, Henning Mankell, comes a lyrical and evocative novel about a Swedish naval engineer during World War I and his devastating plunge into obsession.
In 1914 Lars Tobiasson-Svartman is covertly measuring the depths of Swedish coastal waters. A man of discipline and obsessed with exactitude, he is more comfortable on naval vessels than he is in his loveless marriage back in Stockholm. On one of his missions, Lars discovers a feral but beautiful woman living alone on a remote island. Passion, suspicion, and violence are awakened in him and soon he is living a double life-lying to his wife and his superiors and submerging himself in a pool of deception that has devastating consequences.

"Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Matt. 6:19-21).
His counsel, his affectionate entreaty, and his commandment to us his disciples is, "Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth." The meaning obviously is, that the disciples of the Lord Jesus, being strangers and pilgrims on earth, i. e. neither belonging to the earth nor expecting to remain in it, should not seek to increase their earthly possessions, in whatever these possessions may consist.
Our Lord says about the earth that it is a place "Where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal." All that is of the earth, and in any way connected with it, is subject to corruption, to change, to dissolution. There is no reality, or substance, in anything else but in heavenly things. Often the careful amassing of earthly possessions ends in losing them in a moment by fire, by robbery, by a change of mercantile concerns, by loss of work, etc.; but suppose all this were not the case, still, yet a little while, and thy soul shall be required of thee; or, yet a little while, and the Lord Jesus will return; and what profit shalt thou then have, dear reader, if thou hast carefully sought to increase thy earthly possessions?
Our Lord, however, does not merely bid us not to lay up treasure upon earth; for if he had said no more, this his commandment might be abused, and persons might find in it an encouragement for their extravagant habits, for their love of pleasure, for their habit of spending everything they have, or can obtain, upon themselves. It does not mean, then, as is the common phrase, that we should "live up to our income;" for he adds, "But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven." There is such a thing as laying up as truly in heaven as there is laying up on earth; if it were not so, our Lord would not have said so. Just as persons put one sum after another into the bank, and it is put down to their credit, and they may use the money afterwards: so truly the penny, the shilling, the pound, the hundred pounds, the ten thousand pounds, given for the Lord's sake, and constrained by the love of Jesus, to poor brethren, or in any way spent in the work of God, he marks down in the book of remembrance, he considers as laid up in heaven. The money is not lost, it is laid up in the bank of heaven; yet so, that whilst an earthly bank may break, or through earthly circumstances we may lose our earthly possessions, the money which is thus secured in heaven cannot be lost. But this is by no means the only difference. I notice a few more points: Treasures laid up on earth bring along with them many cares; treasures laid up in heaven never give care. Treasures laid up on earth never can afford spiritual joy; treasures laid up in heaven bring along with them peace and joy in the Holy Ghost even now. Treasures laid up on earth, in a dying hour cannot afford peace and comfort, and when life is over they are taken from us; treasures laid up in heaven draw forth thanksgiving that we were permitted and counted worthy to serve the Lord with the means with which he was pleased to intrust us as stewards, and when this life is over we are not deprived of what was laid up there, but when we go to heaven we go to the place where our treasures are, and we shall find them there.
Often we hear it said, when a person has died, he died worth so much. But whatever be the phrases common in the world, it is certain that a person may die worth fifty thousand pounds sterling, as the world reckons, and yet that individual may not possess, in the sight of God, one thousand pounds sterling, because he was not rich towards God, he did not lay up treasure in heaven. And so, on the other hand, we can suppose a man of God falling asleep in Jesus, and his surviving widow finding scarcely enough left behind him to suffice for the funeral, who was nevertheless rich towards God: in the sight of God he may possess five thousand pounds sterling, he may have laid up that sum in heaven. Dear reader, does your soul long to be rich towards God, to lay up treasures in heaven? The world passes away, and the lust thereof. Yet a little while and our stewardship will be taken from us. At present we have the opportunity of serving the Lord with our time, our talents, our bodily strength, our gifts; and also with our property; but shortly this opportunity may cease. Oh, how shortly may it cease! Before ever this is read by any one, I may have fallen asleep; and the very next day after you have read this, dear reader, you may fall asleep; and, therefore, whilst we have the opportunity, let us serve the Lord.

I am looking for my first deal and I have come across a few properties of interest. However, when I do a property search on the tax assessors website, many times the Fair Market Value listed by the county is much lower than the properties list price?
My questions is, should I be using to Fair Market Value of the tax assessor as a starting point when making an offer? I'm curious to know how others determine the fair market value of a property.
Tax assessor values are traditionally low, and irrelevant.
I would just caution it can also work against you. If I'm the seller and I've seen the last five years the property fmv rise consistently then I'm going to "speculate " and set my price higher for top dollar as opposed to a quick sale.
@Wayne Brooks Thanks for the information. So, how do you calculate the FMV or come up with an offer price on potential deals?
@Jorge De Jesus That's a good point, that I didn't think about. Thanks so much.
I agree with @Wayne Brooks on this one. "Fair market value" doesn't necessarily mean "What the house is worth."
When looking for a deal, generally, work backwards.
On a flip, take your After repair value and subtract your rehab costs, minute the percentage you'd like to make on the deal. That should leave you with an idea of where to start in your negotiations.
On a rental, find what the property would rent for per month, multiply it by 12 (annual Income) and then subtract taxes, insurance, holding costs, (whatever else you account for) and divide by your offer price to get your net ROI. Play around with the numbers until you find a starting price to go off of.
I would completely ignore the tax value. It has no relationship to the actual market value of a property.
To figure out your true market value you need to look at the most similar and nearest comparable sales. Zillow, realtor.com, and your agent's MLS portal will all show you recently sold houses.
Make adjustments based on size, condition, age, and any other important factors. It's the same thing the appraiser at the bank will do. Just try to think about what you would be able to realistically sell the same house for.
@Luke MacDonald and @Josh Engelhart thanks for the insight.

World's top 10 places for chocolate
From all-you-can-eat cocoa-driven buffets to Madrid's favorite late-night pick-me-up, here is our guide to chocoholic heaven.
1. Maison Cailler, Broc, Switzerland
(Maison Cailler)
Tour the home of one of Switzerland's oldest chocolate brands in the Swiss village of Broc, where Cailler has operated a plant since 1898. See how the famed chocolate is produced, then treat your senses with a generous sampling in the factory's tasting room.
Planning: Visits take up to an hour and a half. Nearby are walking paths and trails for hikers. Go for a climb or walk the footpath along Lake Gruyère.
2. Magnolia Bakery, New York City
(Magnolia Bakery)
This cozy little 1950s-style bakery shot to fame when characters from the TV series Sex and the City stopped by for a cupcake-fueled sugar rush. As well as red velvet chocolate cupcakes, the bakery dispenses a rainbow of brightly colored cupcakes, plus banana pudding, cookies, cherry cheesecake, and brownies. The German chocolate cake is a high point.
Planning: Magnolia has four outlets—including the Bleecker Street branch featured in Sex and the City.
3. Max Brenner, New York City
(Max Brenner)
Known for its hot chocolate served in a specially designed hand-warming "hug mug," the Broadway shop and restaurant offer a mind-boggling array of cacao-based product from chocolate truffle martini and chocolate fondue to Young's chocolate stout.
Planning: Max Brenner is at 841 Broadway and 141 Second Avenue.
4. Maya Chocolate, Tabasco, Mexico
(Mexico Tourism Board)
Here in the likely birthplace of chocolate—the word itself possibly deriving from the Maya xocoatl—taste hot chocolate Maya style: thick, foamy, bittersweet, and flavored with chili peppers. The Spanish conquistadors tempered the bitter brew with sugar, cinnamon, ground almonds, and milk. Try it both ways.
Planning: Comalcalco, Tabasco, has a cacao museum and cacao haciendas.
5. Sachertorte, Vienna, Austria
A chocolate sponge cake, thinly coated by hand with apricot jam and then covered with dark chocolate icing, Sachertorte is named for its 1832 inventor, Franz Sacher. He created the dessert to impress his employer, Klemens Wenzel, Prince von Metternich, gaining fame and fortune for himself. In 1876 his son Eduard opened Vienna's Hotel Sacher—visit the splendid café or one of Vienna's four Sacher shops.
Planning: Top your Sachertorte with unsweetened whipped cream and drink it with coffee or champagne.

[![CI](https://github.com/jbush001/NyuziProcessor/workflows/CI/badge.svg)](https://github.com/jbush001/NyuziProcessor/actions?query=workflow%3ACI)
[![Codacy Badge](https://api.codacy.com/project/badge/Grade/fbafdd72749e459d8de6f381abc7436d)](https://www.codacy.com/app/jbush001/NyuziProcessor?utm_source=github.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=jbush001/NyuziProcessor&utm_campaign=Badge_Grade)

Nyuzi is an experimental GPGPU processor focused on compute intensive tasks.
It includes a synthesizable hardware design written in System Verilog, an
instruction set emulator, an LLVM based C/C++ compiler, software
libraries, and tests. It can be used to experiment with microarchitectural
and instruction set design tradeoffs.

**Documentation:** <https://github.com/jbush001/NyuziProcessor/wiki><br/>

The following instructions explain how to set up the Nyuzi development
environment. This includes an emulator and cycle-accurate hardware simulator,
which allow hardware and software development without an FPGA, as well as
scripts and components to run on FPGA.

## Install Prerequisites

### Linux (Ubuntu)

This requires Ubuntu 16 (Xenial Xeres) or later to get the proper package
versions. It should work for other distributions, but you will probably need
to change some package names. From a terminal, execute the following:

    sudo apt-get -y install autoconf cmake make ninja gcc g++ bison flex python \
        python3 perl emacs openjdk-8-jdk swig zlib1g-dev python-dev \
        libxml2-dev libedit-dev libncurses5-dev libsdl2-dev gtkwave python3-pip
    pip3 install pillow

*Emacs is used for [verilog-mode](http://www.veripool.org/wiki/verilog-mode) AUTO macros.
The makefile executes this operation in batch mode*

### MacOS

These instruction assume OSX Mavericks or later.

Install XCode from the Mac AppStore ([Click Here](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/xcode/id497799835?mt=12)).
Then install the command line compiler tools by opening Terminal and typing the
following:

    xcode-select --install

Install python libraries:

    pip3 install pillow

Install Homebrew from <https://brew.sh/>, then use it to install the remaining packages
from the terminal (do *not* use sudo):

    brew install cmake bison swig sdl2 emacs ninja

*Alternatively, you could use [MacPorts](https://www.macports.org/) if that is installed on your system, but you will need to change some of the package names*

You may optionally install [GTKWave](http://gtkwave.sourceforge.net/) for analyzing
waveform files.

### Windows

I have not tested this on Windows. Many of the libraries are cross platform, so
it should be possible to port it. But the easiest route is probably to run
Linux under a virtual machine like [VirtualBox](https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads).

## Build (Linux & MacOS)

The following script will download and install the
[Nyuzi toolchain](https://github.com/jbush001/NyuziToolchain) and
[Verilator](http://www.veripool.org/wiki/verilator) Verilog simulator.
Although some Linux package managers have Verilator, they have old versions.
It will ask for your root password a few times to install stuff.

    ./scripts/setup_tools.sh

Build everything else:

    cmake .
    make

Run tests:

    make tests

*If you are on a Linux distribution that defaults to python3, you may run into build
problems with the compiler. In tools/NyuziToolchain/tools/CMakeLists.txt, comment
out the following line:*

    add_llvm_external_project(lldb)

Occasionally a change will require a new version of the compiler. To rebuild:

    git submodule update
    cd tools/NyuziToolchain/build
    make
    sudo make install

## Next Steps

Sample applications are available in [software/apps](software/apps). You can
run these in the emulator by switching to the build directory and using
the run_emulator script (some need 3rd party data files, details are in
the READMEs in those directories).

For example, this will render a 3D model in the emulator:

    cd software/apps/sceneview
    ./run_emulator

To run on FPGA, see instructions in hardware/fpga/de2-115/README.md


Tuffy Starfish Dog Toy is rated 2.5 out of 5 by 2.
Rated 4 out of 5 by DarbonneLady from Good for heavy chewers The Tuffy toys are pretty tough as they have extra stitching, however they are no match for my 2 year old Yorkshire Terrier. He loves to rip toys apart and pull out the stuffing. These last longer than any I have found so far, and it takes him longer to tear them up.
Rated 1 out of 5 by bigduke from Not even close to being "Tuffy" For a company to call their line "Tuffy' this one fell wayyyyy short. After 5, yes, FIVE minutes with this toy my 8 month old PUPPY completely destroyed this poor starfish. The manufacturers website has this elaborate drawing of how these toys are constructed but it's all rubbish. These toys are terrible quality and most definitely not with the $15 price tag. What a waste of money!


The Renault Twizy Cargo is basically a Twizy car, which is a 1+1, with the back seat removed and a 180 litre boot in its place.
It's got a 17hp electric motor, weighs 375kg and has a range of 50 miles. The Twizy Cargo costs £6241 plus VAT, which businesses can claim back, and the monthly battery hire cost is £36 plus VAT.
It's completely daft but also completely sensible at the same time. And the back door looks like a robot from a sci-fi movie.

Landscape Plans - How can I amend an approved plan ?
It is not uncommon that during the course of construction of a development, for whatever reason, a change is required to the landscaping. This is reasonable but the change may also require approval from the Consent Authority before the works can commence.
Who is the Consent Authority (either the Local Council or Local Certification)?
Has the development been approved under a Development Consent or with a Complying Development Consent?
Is the approved Lanscape Plan affected by a Condition on the Development Consent?
Is the approved Landscape Plan subject to the Estate's Developer Approval?
In light of these considerations, any change to an approved Landscape Plan will require a thorough assessment of the new proposal and may also require the amendment to a Development Consent (DA), Complying Development Certificate (CDC) and subsequently a Construction Certificate (CC). These Certificates are collectively known as a Development Certificates under amendments to the legislation introduced in 2014.
Prepare a design for the proposed change.
Consideration will not be given to a proposed change unless it is clearly oulined on a plan.
If the original Landscape Plan was prepared and certified by Accredited Landscape Architect, Arborist, Horticulturalist or the like, the amended plan will also need to be prepared by a person with similar qualifications and be accompanied by the appropriate certificate.
Complete the Application Form and Submit the Proposal.
Both the Application Form and the proposed design must be submitted to the Accredited Certifier for consideration.
The Application Form is available by clicking here .
A non- refundable Assessment Fee: $250 + GST.
The non-refundable Assessment Fee must be paid at the time of lodgement or soon thereafter. Consideration will not be given to a proposal prior to the payment of this fee.
In the event that a Development Certificate Fee or a Local Government Registration Fee is required, this fee must be paid prior to the release of any advice, opinion or approval of any proposed change.
Consideration of any application to change a Landscape Plan will require at least five (5) full working days from the date that the email was received.
The Accredited Certifier provides no guarantee that the proposed changes will be approved.
An incomplete submission (i.e. one that does not include a fully completed Application Form, the proposed design or payment of any relavant fee) or a submission that will not allow the proposed change to be clearly assessed will be returned to the Applicant without consideration.

Poll: Republican Senators Lead Democrat Challengers in GA Runoff
By George Jacob On 19th December 2020 No Comments
Both Republican Sens. Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue are leading their Democrat opponents, Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff, in Georgia's Senate runoff, a Trafalgar Group survey released Friday revealed.
The survey, taken December 14-16, 2020, among 1,064 respondents, showed Loeffler leading Warnock, whom she has branded a "radical liberal," 52.2 percent to his 45.5 percent. The figures include those who are "leaning" toward the respective candidates as well.
Similarly, Perdue is leading Ossoff 50.2 percent to 47.5 percent — a lead outside the survey's +/- 2.3 percent margin of error:

Notably, Loeffler expanded her lead over Warnock since the last survey, bringing her 3.1 percent lead to 6.7 percent. Perdue also fared better in the latest survey, taking over Ossoff's previous lead of .3 percent:

Just more than two percent remain undecided in both races, the survey found.
Vice President-elect Kamala Harris is expected to hit the campaign trail in Georgia for the Democrat challengers next week as President-elect Joe Biden did just days ago.
"It's time to stand up, take back our democracy. Send me these two men, and we will control the Senate, and we will change the lives of the people in Georgia," Biden said during a stop in Georgia on Tuesday.
"I need two senators from this state if I want to get something done, not two senators who are going to get in the way," he added, "because, look, getting nothing just hurts Georgia."
Democrat victories in the Peach State's runoff would lead to a 50-50 split in the Senate, effectively giving the power to the party in the White House.


The Branding of GAP | Shelby White - The blog of artist, visual designer and entrepreneur Shelby White.
Gap is one of those brands that I've just never bought into. Why? I'm not sure. But if asked what brands are doing it right with their branding, I would say these guys are.
Earlier this year I started noticing some of the really nicely designed outdoor displays and really felt like their typographic decisions in combination with photography were really appealing. I'm not sure how long GAP has been using Helvetica as their brand's type but all of their current promotional materials have it. To me it seems like a perfect fit, especially with the number set '1969'. Gap's 1969 Stream collection website is another great example of where I feel that they've done right.
What are your thoughts on Gap's branding?
It's very.. generic. I appreciate that as a big clothing company they don't want to target their advertising to specific niches, but it comes off as inoffensive and a little bland. I feel like I've seen that Helvetica list of cities before. The Helvetica definitely gives it a trans-national flavour, but it doesn't really make me stop and say 'wow'. I like the LP-inspired jean packages, but those concentric circles have also been used by everyone and their dog. Still, as a large brand, they're probably making the right move.
Like yourself, I've also never really been a GAP person, so it's interesting for me to look at this new art direction (at least I think it's new) and see how my mind re-evaluates its opinion toward GAP.
I do think it looks very good and very punchy. The retro-styled packing looks hot as does the window covering "America's Best Fitting Premium Jeans" (feels like an old 60-80ties magazine advert).
The classic use of Helvetica performs as well as one would expect, but it comes with an inherent price. It's not innovative, it's somewhat bland and yes, as said by Ian it has been done countless times before.
But in saying that, this direction is like betting on sure, reliable thing. It's better than going crazy and getting it horribly wrong.
I do think it looks nice.
It reminds me of an American Apparel campaign but slightly more refined. I do agree with Ian though that it looks like something that has been done many times over with the intent being reminiscing about "the good old days" of Gap.
@Andrew — I'm not sure who is doing the design but it does seem that they aren't going all the way through with this style and I believe they should. It might give it a slightly more structured look for some of those ads (the typography in them).
Ha! I thought it was American Apparel. Especially the one with "America" in the tagline.

Home » Celebrities » Britney Spears and Lady Gaga Had the Sweetest Instagram Interaction
11/21/2021 Celebrities
Britney Spears and Lady Gaga are praising each other.
The superstars gushed over each other in a pair of Instagram stories Friday night, exchanging kind words and possibly forming a new friendship. The "Stronger" singer shared a clip of Gaga, in which the House of Gucci actor responded to a question about Spears during a red carpet interview, days after the termination of Spears' 13-year conservatorship.
"The way that she was treated in this business was really wrong, and the way that women are treated in the music industry is something that I wish would change," Gaga says. "I think she will forever be an inspiration to women."
Alongside the clip, the "Baby One More Time" singer wrote, "Thank you @ladygaga for genuinely taking your time to say something so kind. You made me cry !!! I love you !!!"
Gaga responded to Spears with her own Instagram story, sharing a sweet message along with a makeup-free selfie.
"Love you @britneyspears. Live your best life ❤❤❤ I prayed for the legal system to treat you like a person," she wrote. "You've now changed the course for women in this industry forever. You stood up for yourself and were so brave. Thank you. 🙏."
Gaga has expressed her admiration for Spears before. She also posted an emotional message celebrating the news of Spears' conservatorship ending last week, the morning after Judge Brenda Penny officially terminated the legal arrangement. In the post, she congratulated the "Lucky" singer and called her "superstar and a super-human being."
"I have loved @britneyspears her whole career. I looked up to her, admired her strength—she empowered so many people and still does. I couldn't be more happy for you today. You never deserved what happened, Thank God 4 today you're a superstar and a super-human being," Gaga wrote on Twitter.

I attended the first lesson of the Beginner Square Dance Classes (April to July) in Tsukuba last night. The Tsukuba Square Dance Club has been in existence for more than 25 years and it shows! They are an extremely well-organized group with a very large number of members (almost 70).
I went last night with the intention of just watching, but that was really not an option! As soon as I arrived, one of the members took my hand and led me onto the dance floor. Many people made a special effort to come and talk to me and ask me where I was from and how long I had lived in Tsukuba. Everyone made an attempt to speak to me in English, even if it was not perfect English.
Some of you may not be familiar with square dancing, but you really don't need to know anything to join these classes. The lessons start from the absolute beginning and don't assume that you have any knowledge of square dancing. Also, square dancing involves a "caller" who tells everyone what to do during the dances, and all of the "calls" are in English. The instructions are often in Japanese, but the Japanese members of the group offered to translate for the foreign people. It is also easy just to watch what other people are doing.
I can't say enough about how friendly the people were and how well-organized this group is. If you are having trouble finding ways to make friends with local Japanese people, I strongly recommend that you get involved with some sort of group or club that will effectively "force" people to interact with you. The Tsukuba Square Dance Club has a long history of welcoming foreign residents and I don't think you could find a more friendly club to join. The next round of 15 lessons started yesterday, but they might still allow people to join from the second class (Saturday, April 14).
I am a bit busy these days, so I don't know if I will be able to continue to attend every lesson, but I definitely want to try. Hope to see you there!
February 2008 Update: I did end up continuing with the classes and have thoroughly enjoyed myself since that day back in April 2007 when I thought I would just show up, take a few pictures, and leave. I highly recommend this activity to anyone who thinks they might enjoy some good, clean fun with some lovely, warm-hearted people. Tsukuba Square Dance Club is one of the most welcoming groups of people I have ever met, and they are always happy to accept new foreign members. If you are thinking about joining, but you are not sure, just come for the first class and see if you like it.

Suncorp sells life insurance arm, plans to return cash to shareholders...
Suncorp sells life insurance arm, plans to return cash to shareholders
Author : Paroma Bhattacharya | Published Date : 2018-08-10
Suncorp Group Limited, an Australian finance, insurance, and banking corporation company recently announced plans to offload its life insurance arm to TAL Dai-ichi Life of Japan for A$725 million. In addition, it also plans to return about A$600 million to its shareholders after the sale by the end of 2018.
According to reliable sources, Suncorp will sign a 20-year agreement to distribute the TAL policies to its customers, a similar structure used by other banks that are also quitting the Australian life insurance sector.
Incidentally, NASDAQ reports that the company recorded a 1.5% drop in annual profit and the deal comes at the end of over a year of speculation as Suncorp was considering the sale since early 2017.
Michael Cameron, CEO, Suncorp, stated that the long-term agreement between Suncorp and TAL will enable them to deliver a superior customer experience to Suncorp's Australian clients.
According to Suncorp, it expects to make a non-cash loss of approximately A$880 million by selling its life insurance business arm. Sources close to the matter claim that selling the life insurance business would provide capital to shareholders, simplify the group's business and boost ROE (return on equity).
As per finance experts, Suncorp has experienced a lift in profit by 2.2% from its leading Australian insurance division post the announcement, which, for the record, is reported to have a net profit of A$739 million. However, its banking and wealth sector has recorded a decline in revenue by 2.8%, to A$389 million, among high operating costs and loan impairment expenses. On the other hand, insurance business in New Zealand has bounced back with profits up to 65% to attain A$135 million, thanks to lower claim costs and higher premiums.
According to financial analysts, return on equity (ROE), a key measure of profitability, for Suncorp was 8 per cent, and CEO Cameron states that the company aims to drive its ROE to 10 per cent by 2019.

Working More, Getting Paid Less
by Tula Connell, Dec 21, 2009
Productivity rose 8.1 percent in the third quarter, the largest gain since 2003, as employers pile more on their staff. Meanwhile, pay is stagnating and worker stress increasing because of the larger workloads and the constant fear of being thrown out of a job to join the more than 15 million workers officially unemployed.
A Los Angeles Times story points to how rising productivity, while good for the economy, is not benefiting America's workers. According to Thomas A. Kochan, a professor of management at MIT's Sloan School of Management, productivity gains are troubling because so far,
they haven't been accompanied by wage increases….The threat of outsourcing has also made employees more reluctant to press for higher wages, he said, when they know that if they push too hard, their jobs could disappear.
Anxiety is rippling across the workplace. A survey by CareerBuilder released last month indicated that a quarter of employers rated their employees' morale as low. Nearly half of employees said their workload had increased in the last six months, and 40% said their stress level at work was high. About one in five workers surveyed were dissatisfied with their work-life balance.
Productivity rises as workers do more with less
Employee output per hour rises 8.1% in the third quarter, the largest gain since 2003. But with people working harder in hopes of keeping their jobs, employers have less incentive to hire again.
Deborah Haas says she's too exhausted at the end of each work day to spend much time with her son, Morgan, 2. The family lives in Long Beach. (Francine Orr / Los Angeles Times / December 19, 2009)
By Alana Semuels
When her Irvine office began laying off workers in a lousy economy, Deborah Haas did what every employee fearful of being the next one booted is doing these days: She got busy.
An executive assistant to the head of a furniture company, she became the receptionist, event planner, marketing assistant and office manager. When the catering budget got whacked, she threw on an apron and started whipping up chile lime crab cocktails and carne asada skewers for sales events.
Workers like her are fueling a surge of productivity in the U.S. economy. Employee output per hour jumped 8.1% in the third quarter this year, the largest gain since the third quarter of 2003.
But these bustling laborers are also a big reason why companies won't be rushing to hire new staffers any time soon. The brutal downturn has forced firms across the economy to do more with fewer hands; many have found they can manage just fine for the time being.
As for their workers?
"I've taken on more than I would have, and it makes me tired and stressed," said Haas, 40, of Long Beach.
The nation's unemployed aren't the only ones struggling in a sluggish economy. For those still on the job, life is no picnic either.
Many U.S. workers are being pushed to toil harder and shoulder the load once carried by colleagues who've since been laid off. That can mean long days without overtime pay or raises, less family time, and more mental and physical fatigue.
Don't like it? Walk out the door and you'll join 15 million unemployed Americans, the largest segment of whom have been idle for more than three months. Your former boss will have plenty of replacements to choose from. There are about six job seekers for every opening.
The workload for many survivors is likely to mount in coming months. As business cycles accelerate, companies get busier, but employers are typically reluctant to add staff until they're convinced the good times will last.
"In a recession, the employees that are left find there are demands placed upon them to work more efficiently, work harder and work more hours," said Ross DeVol, director of regional economics at the Milken Institute.
Haas said she's exhausted when she gets home at night and has less energy for her son, Morgan, 2. Still, her skill set has blossomed over the last year, making her even more valuable to her employer -- she hopes. She can't shake the feeling that no position is ever guaranteed.
"Even though I work for a great company, it might not be there one day," she said. "You can never be 100% sure."
Her situation is a case study of what happens to the workforce during a recession, said Nelson Lichtenstein, an economist and director of the Center for the Study of Work, Labor and Democracy at UC Santa Barbara.
"There's the phenomenon of people literally working harder, because they're fearful of losing their jobs," he said. "Rumors of layoffs are flying, so everyone works really hard."
That can have lasting effects, he said, especially among the ranks of nonunion professionals. As they begin to work longer hours for the same pay, informal norms are created, Lichtenstein said, and they become accustomed to working 10- or 12-hour days in place of eight-hour shifts.
Such workers would seem likely to welcome approaches from unions to gain bargaining power with their employers. In fact, he said, it's just the opposite. Wage and benefit rollbacks are common during recessions. This year General Motors and Chrysler, for example, were able to renegotiate many of their union obligations after they toppled into bankruptcy.
"It makes it more difficult for unions to organize because people are grateful to have any job," Lichtenstein said.
Employers said that tough times call for tough measures to ensure that enterprises survive to hire another day. Wayne Lee, the chief financial officer for Carson sporting goods company National Ventures, laid off two employees last year -- 10% of the firm's 22-member staff.
The company spread their tasks among remaining employees, some of whom learned to use software to speed order processing. All warehouse laborers were trained to use a forklift so that National Ventures could ship goods faster.
Lee admits that all his workers are hustling like never before -- he said he's squeezing as much as 20% more work out of some of them. But he said that their willingness to step up in a crisis mitigated the need for deeper job cuts. And when the economy picks up and profits rebound, he said, those that are doing more will probably get a raise.
"They're not too stressed about losing their jobs, they're just more stressed at the pace they have to accomplish their tasks," he said.
The jump in U.S. productivity is stronger than in many past recoveries, said Thomas A. Kochan, a professor of management at MIT's Sloan School of Management. That's good news for the U.S. economy, one of the most industrious in the world, since productivity is key to rising living standards.
But he said these gains are troubling too, since so far they haven't been accompanied by wage increases. Profits are still depressed in many industries, while expenses such as healthcare continue to soar. That's limiting the ability of employers to boost worker pay. Only about 12% of the U.S. labor force is unionized, according to the most recent figures, giving workers little clout. The threat of outsourcing has also made employees more reluctant to press for higher wages, he said, when they know that if they push too hard, their jobs could disappear.
Anxiety is rippling across the workplace. A survey by CareerBuilder released last month indicated that a quarter of employers rated their employees' morale as low. Nearly half of employees said their workload had increased in the last six months, and 40% said their stress level at work was high. About one in five workers surveyed were dissatisfied with their work-life balance.
"People are being asked to work more, and that stress is pretty amazing," said Julie Cohen, a Los Angeles therapist. "Even though they have their jobs, they're worried every minute that they're going to lose them."
Workplace stress can cause irritability, depression, heart palpitations and family problems, Cohen said. About half of the employed patients coming into her practice complain of bigger workloads and deteriorating personal lives.
Some economists expect that extra burdens at work will subside once companies, sure that a recovery is underway, start hiring again. Firms competing for the best talent will have to raise wages, sweeten benefits and allow workers more time to spend with their families.
Other say maybe not. U.S. employers will be looking to maintain the efficiencies and productivity they created during the recession, said Ken Moore, a professor of strategic management at the School of Business at the State University of New York-Albany. Leaner, meaner and faster could be the new normal.
"As companies try to remain in business by at least breaking even, they have to change a lot," he said. "Some of that has to come with the people themselves."
Workers such as Katje Lehrman could be bearing heavier workloads for years to come. Thanks in large part to state budget cuts, the Los Angeles Unified kindergarten teacher has 25 students in her classroom this year, up from 20 last year. That means more hours of grading, scoring report cards, meeting with parents and preparing materials.
When she leaves work at 5 p.m., the school's parking lot is filled with the cars of teachers still hard at it, she said. Though they're paid to work six hours a day, teachers often end up working many more without compensation, Lehrman said.
"We're finding that we're all stressed out," she said.
Already, Lehrman gets home from work, feeds her dogs and collapses on the couch, many times falling asleep within the hour. But budget cuts may exacerbate the situation: The district is asking teachers to take a pay cut next year.

Big Little Lies S01E01 review: a formulaic feminist fandango
By Julia Breakey
Read next6 Instagram users who have risked their lives for likes
On the surface, Big Little Lies seems like just another series dragging us through an entire season of "someone is dead, figure it out." The Affair did it, Revenge did it, How to Get Away with Murder did it. Big Little Lies is doing it.
I know. I'm tired, too. It's like clickbait in TV form.
But Big Little Lies also brings with it a star-studded cinematic cast and themes of femininity and parenthood that set it apart from the rest, so it's definitely worth sticking around for at least another episode.
The pilot opens — where else? — at a crime scene. Someone is dead, someone is hiding, someone is breathing heavily. If you're wondering who died and who did it, you haven't been paying attention. Unless you've read the source novel by Liane Moriarty, you aren't going to know until the season finale. It's the sad truth.
Don't worry, we're in this together.
And if you have been paying attention, you know what's coming next. That's right: it's flashback time.
We get taken back a few weeks, to a time when Madeline Mackenzie (Reese Witherspoon) is being a Mom™. She's dealing with her sulky teen daughter and snarky 6-year-old written by someone who has never met a six-year-old.
Big Little Lies centres on family, and the love and torture that comes with it
These relationships are important. Big Little Lies centres around the parent-child dynamic. Every piece of drama that happens in the pilot episode happens because of the kids. Renata Klein (Laura Dern) picks a fight with Ziggy, Jane's (Shailene Woodley) son. Perry (Alexander Skarsgard) tells his wife Celeste (Nicole Kidman) that their twins can't be friends with him. Madeline has an intimate moment with her daughter when she feels they're drifting apart.
Big Little Lies is centred on family, and the love and torture that comes with it. It plays with domesticity, most obviously by casting big names we associate with glamour to play understated housewives in a small town. Everything can be confused as a facade — hence the show's title — but one thing that can't be misconstrued is the love these women have for their children.
The show is pushing the limits these mothers will go to protect their own — and we know for certain that the show will end in murder. The big (little) question lies in who gets pushed the furthest.
Another draw to the show is how it focuses on women. These women are flawed, they are real, and they are the glue that holds everything together. If anything, they are reason enough to watch Big Little Lies.
A bonus is that they are acted beautifully. Witherspoon carries her character with the confidence of Elle Woods. Nicole Kidman's face is remarkable. Even Shailene Woodley is watchable, which is a feeling I've never experienced before.
These women are the heart of the show, and what a heart it is. I will not be tuning in to find out more about the murder. It's inconsequential. I will be tuning in because I am interested in these women.
Also Alexander Skarsgard is hot.
THEORY TIME (spoilers ahead):
Celeste committed the murder. That stare at her husband when he was reading to their children? She's capable of killing, and you can't convince me otherwise.
Her demon twins hurt Amabella. Did you hear the book their dad was reading them?
Amabella lied because she was afraid of retaliation.
Jane Chapman is running from her ex-boyfriend, with whom she is an accomplice for murder.
Zoe Kravitz is actually a god.
