Summary

A new piece from the business-friendly American Enterprise Institute is making the business case for some type of reasonable mandated scheduling legislation. We’ll discuss how companies in the heat of those battles might view those proposals and, more importantly, how elected officials in key battleground cities might as well. And federal apprenticeship programs are in the news this week and it's not the kind of news we would like. We’ll discuss some new challenges facing the Labor Department with regard to apprenticeships and if and how it affects the industry. And Louisiana will decide on a new governor tomorrow and considering what happened in Kentucky, if the incumbent Democrat hangs on, national Republicans will be in panic mode. We’ll kick that around. We’ll talk about those stories and wrap it up with the legislative scorecard.

Before long a shared love of all things craft (and a shared quirkiness which made them fast friends) drove them to start knitting luncheons at work.From this (slightly irregular) lunch time wool-based shin-dig, a whole torrent of ideas began to spill forth – Danni and Charlie had big plans and lots of them. And so a blog was born (danniandcharlie.wordpress.com) and a mere year later, so was this podcast.You can expect to hear a lot about knitting, crochet, washi tape and wool probably interspersed with a couple of other random crafty skills they hope to hone/have already honed including print making and origami.
