☆ Here’s what a new Biden administration labor proposal would mean for independent contractors
▼ + stars: | 2022-10-11 | by ( Greg Iacurci | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

Rudi_suardi | E+ | Getty ImagesThe Biden administration will soon issue a rule that may make it easier for workers to be considered "employees" instead of "independent contractors." Misclassification of workers as independent contractors — also known as freelancers or the self-employed — instead of employees is happening across many industries, like construction, health care, restaurants, retail and transportation, Labor Department officials said Tuesday. Employers may benefit financially by classifying their workforce as contractors instead of employees. These companies often classify gig workers as independent contractors. Federal action would especially be a boon to "low-wage, vulnerable workers," Labor Department officials said.

Hurricane Ian is set to take aim at Florida's west coast as early as Wednesday, according to the National Hurricane Center. "A few tornadoes" are also possible late Monday night and Tuesday "across the Florida Keys and the southern and central Florida Peninsula." What initially formed as Tropical Depression Nine early Friday morning strengthened that night into Tropical Storm Ian, the NHC said. The hurricane is forecast to bring 8 to 15 inches to central West Florida, 3 to 8 inches to the rest of the Florida Peninsula and 4 to 6 inches to the Keys. On Saturday, the governor expanded that to apply statewide, citing the risk of a major hurricane making landfall on Florida’s western coast.

☆ Duke Energy is one of the top leakers of a gas that is 25,000 times more polluting than carbon dioxide, EPA records show
▼ + stars: | 2022-09-21 | by ( Phil Mckenna | Inside Climate News | ) www.nbcnews.com time to read: +22 min

The emissions were equal to the annual greenhouse gas emissions of more than 59,000 automobiles, according to the EPA’s greenhouse gas equivalency calculator. Under such a scenario Duke Energy would likely have years of low emissions punctuated by a single year of high emissions. While other utilities have participated for decades in a voluntary program with the EPA to reduce SF6 emissions to next to nothing, Duke Energy has not. Brooks said Duke Energy is also targeting its most leaky equipment for faster replacement. The figure is roughly half of 1% of all greenhouse gas emissions worldwide, far smaller than yearly emissions of carbon dioxide, the primary driver of climate change.

The policy changes are likely to face some pushback from companies and lawyers, and could be rolled back by future administrations. It also targets corporate policies concerning executive compensation, pushing companies to design clawback policies that would apply in cases where an executive is involved in wrongdoing. Companies that do so may be eligible for probationary deals and can avoid additional oversight measures that prosecutors sometimes impose after a settlement is struck.

Un bărbat din regiunea Panhandle din Florida, Statele Unite, a achitat facturile a 114 familii care riscau să rămână fără apă şi gaze în perioada sărbătorilor de iarnă din cauza efectelor pandemiei de coronavirus, au informat mass-media locale citate de EFE și agerpres.ro. Autorul acestui gest de generozitate este Michael Esmond, proprietarul unei afaceri din Pensacola, care a plătit din propriul buzunar 7.615 de dolari pentru a ajuta 114 familii să nu rămână fără apă, gaze şi alte utilităţi. "Ne aflăm într-o regiune care este o importantă zonă turistică şi care a fost devastată vara aceasta", a adăugat Esmond pentru explica motivul din spatele acestei acţiuni de binefacere. Scopul său a fost de a aduce puţină bucurie în această perioadă de sărbători pentru numeroase familii care nu şi-au putut achita facturile la apă, gaze sau alte servicii. În 2019, el a plătit facturile la aceleaşi servicii pentru 36 de familii în perioada sărbătorilor de iarnă.

Știm, de altfel, și despre Mike Pence că este un admirator înfocat al „strategiei Lee Atwater”. Dreapta americană a avut întotdeauna nevoie de dușmani, chiar și atunci când a trebuit să-i inventeze. Aceasta a fost logica puterii și confortului, înarmată cu filosofia „după noi, potopul”. Unii dintre ei știu cu siguranță că marile numere se mișcă inexorabil în defavoarea lor și, într-un viitor nu prea îndepărtat, îi vor îngropa. A venit probabil timpul, la nivel local (al lor) și planetar (al nostru), să reexaminăm democrația americană și perspectivele ei.

But realistically, buying a quality leather jacket can become a substantial financial investment — one that most guys aren't ready to make (myself included). Most worthwhile options cost around $700 or more, which, for a while, meant that my only chance of getting a premium yet affordable leather jacket would be in a thrift store. That was, until I found out one of my favorite shoe startups was making really nice leather jackets without the retail markup. Very seldom will you find a genuine leather jacket of this quality at an under-$500 price. According to a currency inflation calculator, the $700 my dad spent on his leather jacket in 1996 is equivalent to $1,121.24 in today's dollars.

With such a distinguished accolade in footwear and a name like Thursday Boot Company, you'd think that the startup had every intention on staying in footwear, but that's not the case. Aside from the attractive colorways available, what I like about the Thursday Briefcase is its size and the optional shoulder strap. On top of that, many options don't have a shoulder strap, making them handheld only. With the Thursday Boot Company Briefcase, I was able to fit everything I'd normally carry in my backpack when commuting.

The latest bag I'm obsessed with is one such miracle of thoughtful and versatile design, the Lo & Sons Edgemont Convertible Backpack Tote. The Edgemont Backpack Tote can fit a ton of stuff, and it has the smartly designed compartments to keep it all organized. The different handles, particularly the padded backpack straps, are comfortable, and the straight back prevents heavier weights from ruining your posture. Connie Chen/Business InsiderIn case you can't tell, I'm very happy with the Edgemont Convertible Backpack Tote from Lo & Sons. The company successfully made a sleek, durable, and comfortable convertible bag worthy of the office, gym, travels, and everyday adventures.
