Reply to comment by 1up in Undersheriff Tariq El-Shabazz has been fined by the Ethics Board for doubling as a criminal defense lawyer in Philly by courageous_liquid
Probably not his job to enforce but my employer requires me to report ethics violations by other employees, vendors, or clients.
I would hope government that the same is expected of government employees.

Yeah I feel like breathing is a challenge. Going from 35 to 70 in 12 hours is part of it but also just look at the sky. It's very hazy and it's not even that humid. Air quality index is moderate.

Reply to comment by Popular_Objective362 in Saturday hours back at *some* FLP branches by tgalen
Librarian in the area but never worked there. I’ve heard mixed things.
It seems to really depend on the branch you get placed at which you don’t know ahead of time. They can also send you to other branches when needed. Some branches you end up more as a social worker than doing librarian work, which for some is a joy, for others not.
I interviewed and it was not really a friendly process, but that wasn’t really the libraries fault and more because it is a civil service job and have their system.
I passed the interview, but then got dumped into a pool of others. They did not explain this portion beforehand. I found out after I “passed” the interview. I ended up declining it when it reached my placement which was about two years later.

Seth Williams former right hand man who failed to chart in the DAO race that Krasner won.
Our city government is just the worst people in a circle.

I'm late to the conversation, but when I went out for lunch in Old City today, and there was a noticeable white haze outside. Probably going to make for a pretty killer sunset.

Reply to comment by chem_daddy in Striking Temple University graduate students overwhelming vote down proposed contract by diatriose
weirdly i read it how it was intended. just my limited experience. Honestly it felt like lots of profs resented their placement and wanted to dive into industry but just couldn't for whatever reason.
then there's non-profit research institutions that have PIs who are also multi-millionaire CEOs

Krasner is right that it is not automatically a conflict of interest under the PA rules of professional conduct that govern attorneys even if it is a clear violation of the ethical rules that El-Shabazz is subject to. Not sure what else you would expect Krasner to say eitherr as it is not his job to enforce the city ethics code.

I don't have asthma, but I was in Penn's Landing today and noticed that the smog problem was particularly bad

2 years of shots (immunotherapy) all but eliminated what used to be pretty crippling seasonal allergies for me. Going on 5+ years of relief. Highly recommend if you can stick with it.

Waiting to see how the Krasneristas defend this one.
Look, I don’t like the guy’s policies. But this is separate from that. He is just a bad, unethical attorney. File this under the same category as all the stories about enormous office turnover, getting rebuked for incompetence on the record by a judge, accepting enormous amounts of money from out-of-state donors, etc. Donald Trump levels of comically apparent corruption, ineptitude, and belief that the rules don’t apply to you.

Is that why some days I can carry a tune pretty well and others I sound like a donkey? I've always wondered!

Yeah I have like 15 of them around so it's not a big deal. I should honestly probably just get an air purifier.

Oh well yeah that'll probably do it. Fortunately the filters are fairly cheap

I spent the last day researching and buying a bigger higher end air filter for my first floor. I have double doors to the outside and they are sealed pretty well, but man o man, I feel like I go downstairs and all of a sudden I have a head and lungs full of snot.
