Hi, i’ve got some ceiling fans that I love, but they make a tiny creaking sound that bugs me. I’d love to hire someone to come out and fix it, but it has to be someone who knows ceiling fans better than just being able to do the initial install. I’d love someone who specializes in ceiling fans or has been working on them for many years. Thanks!

This year, the state is paying $37.42 per hour in Medicaid reimbursements for caregivers, including health insurance, retirement benefits, paid time off and mileage reimbursement. The workers generally make between $22 and $25 per hour, Glickman said. Glickman called the state's position "penny-wise and pound foolish," noting state data shows increases in people going from in-home care to nursing homes would push up other costs for the state. For example, a 25% shift would be worth $1.2 billion annually. ~ 80,000 people bathe and lift this state's seniors for $22 an hour. The opening offer was zero.

Cameras in public spaces should be locally owned and maintained. We the People, through our democratically elected public officials, should be in transparent control of any resulting data and it’s chain of custody. The only goal of public cameras should be public safety, and in using cameras for this purpose we must be careful not to allow the creation of an all seeing entity that manipulates what it sees for power and profit. The tech is not cutting edge, the only thing that’s beyond our local reach is the opaque national network that is in control now, and that’s exactly what we fear most and what we must work to prevent. There is no reasonable expectation of privacy in the public square, if we could afford to put law abiding peace officers everywhere, we would do so. However, We the People should maintain the expectation that shadowy or nefarious interests won’t be permitted to remotely combine all of our daily activities into what directly amounts to warrantless surveillance. Especially when that artificially enhanced perspective serves political and economic interests beyond transparent public knowledge or control. We do not have an absolute right to privacy in common areas, but our society does operate within a well established right to freedom from unreasonable searches and unwarranted surveillance. Data should be destroyed after a set amount of time, and strict policies about it’s custody and use should be implemented. If it’s not already enumerated in our laws, our republic should consider specifically banning private supervision of the public square, especially widely aggregated, privately empowering public surveillance. There is no reason any security camera needs to be financed with opaque corporate money or any kind of nationalist effort that gives control of policing to out of town interests. The very idea of community policing should start here. Remote cameras are well established technology, not something that requires cutting edge technical innovation. Easily maintained low cost cameras should be owned and operated by our municipalities and monitored by trusted, locally regulated observers, in a transparent, fiduciarily responsible process that keeps our personal privacy intact while ensuring public safety.
