Patricio Systems is an information technology company that provides staffing solutions for state, local and federal government agencies. Founded in 2011 by disabled Marine veteran John Patricio, the company allows private entities and government agencies to fulfill their disabled veteran contract requirements. For the state of California this requirement is called Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE). For the federal government this requirement is called Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB).When government agencies want to start an IT project, they need a project manager and technical resources.

Hollywood is officially on hiatus as the union representing on-screen talent has joined screenwriters in striking against the studios, amid stalled contract negotiations.SAG-AFTRA officially announced its strike would commence at midnight PST Friday, after the union’s contract expired late Wednesday and negotiations with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) fell apart.

My mother knew how to iron. I remember her standing over the ironing board, forming crisp fresh-smelling stacks of linens. I should have paid more attention.Instead, I have been bumbling along, pressing hot metal to fabric all these years as if I knew what I was doing. That changed last month when, some of you may recall, I interviewed garment-care guru Wayne Edelman, owner of Meurice Garment Care, a high-end cleaner based in New York. Edelman and I discussed how to get whiter whites. (If the discussion of whiter whites didn’t knock the planet off its axis, certainly the hot topic of proper ironing will!)During that call, Edelman casually mentioned, “Don’t steam iron cottons and linens. Iron them damp. If they’re dry, sprinkle or spritz with water then iron.”I have been steam ironing my cottons and linens — for years. “Why not?” I asked. “Isn’t that the same as ironing damp fabric?”“What gives cotton and linen that crisp finish is pulling the water out of the damp fabric...Five-bedroom home sells in San Ramon for $2.3 million

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department urged a judge Thursday to reject Donald Trump’s efforts to postpone his classified documents trial, saying there was no basis for an “open-ended” delay sought by his lawyers.Federal prosecutors last month proposed a Dec. 11 trial for Trump, who is charged with 37 felony counts related to the mishandling of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate, though the actual date will be up to the judge.Trump’s lawyers countered this week with a request for a delay. They did not propose a specific date but said the case concerned novel legal issues, and proceeding with a trial within six months is “unreasonable” and would “result in a miscarriage of justice.” On Thursday, prosecutors on special counsel Jack Smith’s team responded by asking U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon to not postpone the trial beyond the December date they recommended. They rejected the idea that any of the legal arguments the defense intends to raise requir...Latest news
