We’re planning ahead for March and trying to invite local makers in to a few of our branches to showcase some of the great technology that’s out there.

Teen Tech Week is March 9-15, but our programming deadline is the end of this month, which is why we plan so far ahead.

Elevator Upgrade

by Matthew Senate

Hey all, George has offered to replace the hydraulic system in the elevator, which is a $1500 job according to him. He wants to ask sudo room for $250 and the public school $100 to cover part of the cost. I'm unsure how this fits with regard to our lease, but either way we should figure out how to respond at the next meeting. // Matt

Common room carpet cleaning confusion? (AKA more Georgeness)

by Chris Bee

George is planning to clean the carpets in the common area tomorrow and seems to think we are prepared for this somehow...he told me about it Saturday afternoon, and I said "Great, but email someone else from sudo and let them know so I'm not the only one who knows." Well, guess what? He didn't do that, and while I'm pretty sure we can navigate this situation it's just another example of Georgeness. (my new catch all phrase for what he seems to engage in on a regular basis). -chrisbee

uncovering smear campaigns

by Romy Ilano

"the war of the future is a mental war" how could we uncover smear campaigns like this one? this is an interesting topic I'd like to explore. - - a - - [image: Lee Fang] Lee Fang <http://www.thenation.com/blogs/lee-fang> - - [image: Syndicate content] RSS Feed<http://www.thenation.com/blogs/168901/feed> Investigating the intersection of politics, lobbying and public policy. Former Walmart Exec Leads Shadowy Smear Campaign Against Black Friday Activists<http://www.thenation.com/blog/177376/former-wal-mart-exec-leads-shadowy-sme…> Lee Fang <http://www.thenation.com/authors/lee-fang> on November 26, 2013 - 3:16 PM ET - As activists continue to organize demonstrations at McDonalds, Walmart and other low-wage firms, big protests<http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/11/21/walmart-protests-2013_n_4319420.ht…>are planned against retailers for mistreating their workers this Black Friday. In response, union-busting consultants are ramping up efforts to marginalize them. Last night—Worker Center Watch, a new website dedicated to attacking labor-affiliated activist groups like OUR Walmart, Restaurant Opportunities Center, and Fast Food Forward—began sponsoring<https://twitter.com/WC_Watch>advertisements on Twitter to promote smears against the protests planned for Black Friday. In one video sponsored by the group, activists demanding a living wage and better working conditions for workers are portrayed as lazy “professional protesters” who “haven’t bothered to get jobs themselves.” “This Black Friday, just buy your gifts, not their lies,” instructs the Worker Center Watch narrator. Watch it: Worker Center Watch has no information its website about its sponsors. Yet the group attacks labor activists and community labor groups for lacking transparency. “Hiding behind these non-profits, unions mask their true motivations, circumvent operational requirements and skirt reporting and disclosure obligations,” says <http://www.workercenterwatch.com/about/>Worker Center Watch, referring to labor-supported worker centers like OUR Walmart. TheNation.com has discovered that Worker Center Watch was registered<http://whois.polodomains.com/domain/O88QLBx68p8YKICdThulRHN1yWAQng29_info.h…>by the former head lobbyist for Walmart. Parquet Public Affairs, a Florida-based government relations and crisis management firm for retailers and fast food companies, registered the Worker Center Watch website. The firm is led by Joseph Kefauver<http://www.parquetpa.com/index.php/who-we-are/>, formerly the president of public affairs for Walmart and government relations director for Darden Restaurants. Throughout the year, Parquet executives have toured<http://www.cueinc.com/pdf/conferences/2013_fall_conference_flyer.pdf>the country, giving lectures<http://www.steptoe.com/assets/htmldocuments/2012%20LABOR%20CONFERENCE%20BRO…>to business groups on how to combat the rise of what has been called “alt-labor.” At a presentation<http://www.scribd.com/doc/187341531/New-Labor-Management-Challenges-Kefauver>in October for the National Retail Federation, a trade group for companies like Nordstrom and Nike, Kefauver’s presentation listed protections against wage theft, a good minimum wage and mandated paid time off as the type of legislative demands influenced by the worker center protesters. The presentation offered questions<http://www.scribd.com/doc/187341531/New-Labor-Management-Challenges-Kefauver>for the group, including: “How Aggressive Can We Be?” and “How do We Challenge the Social Justice Narrative?” It seems retailers are now experimenting with how aggressive they can be. Today, Parquet’s Worker Center Watch posted<https://twitter.com/WC_Watch/status/405307792073842689>a link to a Breitbart News story featuring a video allegedly obtained by someone who infiltrated an Occupy activist group planning to demonstrate against Walmart. The alarm at how quickly the new organizing model has taken off has sparked anxiety among business executives. Littler Mendelson, a law firm that helps companies defeat labor unions, released a report<http://www.littler.com/category/wordpress-category/union-front-organizations>outlining the challenge for corporate executives. The US Chamber of Commerce, a dark-money group that counts Walmart and McDonalds as members, produced<http://www.uschamber.com/press/releases/2013/november/us-chamber-report-sho…>a similar study last week. Corporations fear that the new wave of activism could have a multiplier effect that goes way beyond better pay and benefits for their workers. Please support our journalism. Get a digital subscription for just $9.50!<https://subscribe.thenation.com/servlet/OrdersGateway?cds_mag_code=NAN&cds_…> In a webinar hosted this month for business executives seeking a “union-free workplace,” Nancy Jowske explained<http://lrionline.com/webinar-black-friday-update>that the alt-labor model could heavily influence millennials and their perceptions of labor unions. “One of the things to consider about what’s going there with SEIU’s Fight for 15 and all of this is the millennial generation,” said Jowske, a former SEIU organizer turned union-buster, “they are getting a steady diet of pro-union from every possible direction." She added, "this is also a generation that is very class-conscious” and explained that the current alt-labor protests could incite future organizing drives. Jowske also cited a recent<http://inthesetimes.com/article/15826/fight_for_15_confidential/> *In These Times* piece to argue that worker centers can be portrayed as “union front groups,” and warned that the alt-labor organizing model could have a long-term impact. For instance, the organizing model appears to help unions and community groups forge close ties that could be later used to deploy activists for political campaigns, workplace NLRB elections and other left-wing causes. *Bryce Covert talks about <http://www.thenation.com/blog/177361/why-women-workers-are-risk-averse-and-…> how women’s eye for the long term makes them valuable workers.* ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Re: [sudo-discuss] Hours Equity and dispute prevention. Plus Egoboo cred.

The term is "Egoboo" in context of a healthy accolade for That Which Was WELL performed. Needful works that go a step beyond plodding bare minimums.

Exemptions of individuals from paying dues may be approved on a case by case basis by the general membership on the grounds of financial hardship or refusal to participate in the monetary system The recommended monthly dues for members is calculated as follows: dues = average over all members of ( 1 month's overhead + a % of any defecit in each standing fund + a risk premium (min. 5% of all other dues components) For instance, early on, overhead could be (rent + utilities + services), in which case dues = (500 + 100 + 20 + (10 + 5 + 0 + 10) + 64) / 23 = $30.83 per member - --------------------- Feedback encouraged over the next 7 days until this amendment is brought up for consensus at the next weekly meeting (January 8th).

sudo buttons/shirts/general swag madness

by Chris Bee

It was bound to happen eventually... [image: Inline image 1] We have a few dozen of these hanging around the space...look for a small white box that says "SUDO ROOM BUTTONS" (it's currently on the big table) and help yourself. Then donate whatever you think they're worth to sudo...as long as you're wearing one, you're promoting sudo room. See how that works? Kind of like Nike selling Nike t-shirts but slightly less evil. T-SHIRTS Here's the third print of the first sudo stencil I made. At this point I think it's okay- it's all straight lines which makes it a lot easier to cut- but I can do better. So I will. [image: Inline image 1] BTW- we need more button blanks so if anyone has a lead on those let me know. -chrisbee

Announcing 3D Tuesdays at Sudo!

by Yardena Cohen

Starting next week I'm going to be hacking with the 3D printer every Tuesday night at Sudoroom. Next week (New Year's Eve) will probably end early, but after that I will shoot for being around from 5-9pm. I encourage others to join me. It will be a time to learn, create, solve problems, and have fun. Some of my specific short term goals are: - fix/improve our Type A Machine's bed - experiment with the best slicer settings - set up the attached box for OpenSCAD development Some long term goals are: - make our printer easier & simpler to use, understand, maintain - get more people involved in 3D printing - build at least one RepRap Also there is ongoing hacking of our wiki documentation. Please help!: - https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Type_A_Machine - https://sudoroom.org/wiki/3D_Modeling Thanks and happy holidays!

[Consensus] Defining Membership

by Jenny Ryan

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Also at this momentous Dec. 18th meeting, several suggestions were put forward re: defining membership. These proposals and the resulting feedback have been documented here: https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Articles_of_Association/Membership ^^^ Please edit this page or use the Discussion tab to give feedback on these proposals - or respond to this thread! Items up for consensus next week are [1], [2], [4] and [5] Proposed: [1] That membership requires a minimum fee of $10 per month (see previous email for the exact amendment wording, link and discussion thread) [2] That membership includes 24/7 access to the space with a personal access code and/or rfid.

Re: [sudo-discuss] what's the current state of the sewing machines?

by Mary Paniscus

I've got a sewing machine I can bring if someone confirms its need ASAP. I also have some collaborative pieces that could use some more paint for the Jan 3rd event. I have all the supplies needed and will hover around the table facilitating others (as minimally as needed) so that they paint with (rather than over) previous contributions. It's fun and easy.

January 3 - post art murmur art making party - anyone interested?

by Romy Ilano

https://sudoroom.org/wiki/ArtMakingParty#Schedule Hi I'm busy planning the January 3- art collaboration event. Is anyone interested in participating? Anyone who could also go on the street, wave signs and play music to beckon and lure people in right before the art murmur would also be great! During Art Murmur[edit<https://sudoroom.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=ArtMakingParty&action=edit&s…> ] During the Art Murmur any people could be stationed on the street waving, playing music, performing or dancing and beckoning people coming to SudoRoom. 9:45 start[edit<https://sudoroom.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=ArtMakingParty&action=edit&s…> ] - Opening ceremonies presented by James Lamaste - People are directed to where they can draw or hack, different stations. There will be standing areas for the MC to go to at various points of the night to showcase their progress. - Elle Seven will skate around, present her wonderful skate films set in Dakar and East Los Angeles. http://facebook.com/elleseven - *Art Drawing from the Hat* (15 minutes) our handsome MC James Lamaste will draw various drawing ideas from the HAT! collaborators do a quickdraw on whatever medium they have at hand (paint, marker, iPad, wacom tablet, even tattooing their love of their life) - Guitar playing by Garrett - People will draw along to Garrett's music. About[edit<https://sudoroom.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=ArtMakingParty&action=edit&s…> ] January 3, 2014 - we are having a post Oakland Art Murmur<https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Art_Murmur> art making evening. The idea is that instead of doing an art show, we will create a space for people to create art, hack on stuff, dance and perform for everyone live. It's like a Jazz musician jam. There are going to be art MC's such as James Lamaste and roller skaters like Elle Seven cheering people on, presenting videos, and playing music. ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Never mind- I'm coming to SudoRoom on another day, not Saturday to prepare for Jan 3- art making event

by Romy Ilano

I'm going to go to SudoRoom on another day, not Saturday for a January 3 art making event I'm planning on borrowing the overhead projector from Noisebridge, with their permission. Does anyone know anyone willing to be a performer? Does anyone have any art supplies? Would it be possible for people to leave art supplies in a donation box by the front of SudoRoom? There is a big roll of paper somewhere downstairs in the building. I'm wondering--is this needed? Would George let us use this? ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Tomorrow: First Hacker Spa Collective Meeting

by Andrew

Hi, Would you like to see a combination co-working space and spa in Oakland at The Omni? Come to the first Hacker Spa Collective meeting tomorrow at 6:00pm in the common room. Here's some more info about the idea: Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/hackerspacollective/ Event: https://www.facebook.com/events/382439568568178/ Riseup List: https://lists.riseup.net/www/info/hacker-spa-collective Hacker Spa will be a combination spa and co-working space. We will provide a quiet, warm, relaxing place to chill and work as well as offer massage therapy, tea, and hot tubs. I'm imagining the space to have no or just a few desks. People would mainly work sitting on couches or comfy pillows and bean bags. Or maybe work in the hot tub via rented water resistant laptops. I've had this idea in my head for a little over a year. I've mentioned it to a couple of people who love it, but the timing was never right to make it actually happen. Well, as some of you know there is a space in the Temescal Neighborhood of Oakland that is being looked at as becoming a community center owned by a collective of collectives called The Omni, http://prezi.com/fbhw5lnpkyo1/the-omni/ The top floor of this building has an area with 3 - 4 "bedrooms" and a laundry room with a shower and a hot tub. I think that this area would be a great place to make the Hacker Spa happen. The organization would be co owned by everyone working there, so for example if you wanted to set up a massage table you would pay dues to help pay rent and expenses and keep any other money you make as well as get paid dividends if we make a profit. Same with anyone who helps with promotion, administration, etc. The major goal would be to pay a rent on a portion of The Omni with this project. -- ------- Andrew Lowe
