work environment are becoming increasingly important. How important? It's been shown that properly designed workspaces can increase employee productivity, creativity and collaboration. To make that happen, one Connecticut-based company built an 85,000-square-foot, high-tech, open office complete with chairs and movable desk configurations on wheels, no cubicles and a rotating collection of art from local artists. Open Door-less Policy Employees at that firm, Vertrue Incorporated, can still find privacy for meetings or phone calls in separate "quiet rooms." However, their computers are connected to an "Electric Eel," a set of springing cable cords that extend from the ceiling and provide the voltage to power each mobile workstation. This allows them to roll up next to their colleagues for impromptu meetings. And that open "door-less" policy extends all the way up to CEO Gary Johnson. "It's part of our commitment to making this a happier, more fun place to work," he said. Convincing Your Boss So how do you get your employer to make changes? And should you aim for the same lactation room for nursing mothers, high-tech caf? featuring flat-screen TVs, and "comfort room" for ill employees that Vertrue opted for? Experts say you should consider the following tips: • Conduct research on the Internet on other companies that have created open-office environments. • Ask your boss or human resources representative for a private meeting to discuss these ideas. • Create and distribute an employee survey, asking others for their suggestions on which changes in the office might make them happier on the job. Remember, the space you work in can affect the pace you work at. Title: Have You Heard About Streamline Magic?

piece
is
an
abstract
triptych
that
I
found
while
I
was
in
Atlanta
buying
religious
paintings
The
piece
was
called
Guardian
Angel
and
I
love
it
My
patrons
fell
in
love
with
it
as
well
They
have
asked
me
to
track
down
the
artist
and
see
if
he
has
anymore
religious
paintings
available
The
only
religious
paintings
that
I
actually
do
not
buy
are
ones
that
reflect
the
image
of
Jesus
on
the
cross
I
don’t
have
a
problem
with
them
some
of
them
are
extremely
well
done
and
would
more
than
likely
sell
well
but
my
investors
made
it
very
clear
when
they
financed
the

that
I
would
not
put

Ajello
Candles
The
motto
of
the
Ajello
Candle
Company
is
“It’s
better
to
light
a
candle
than
to
curse
the
darkness”
This
candle
making
company
has
been
in
business
since
1775
The
business
has
been
family
owned
for
seven
generations
The
candles
from
Ajello’s
are
well
known
for
their
beauty
and
quality
While
they
make
more
candles
now
than
in
1775
their
dedication
to
quality
and
to
customers
has
never
changed
The
Ajello
Candle
Company
was
founded
by
Rafael
Ajello
an
Italian
painter
He
was
also
a
beekeeper
so
he
tried
his
hand
at
using
bees
wax
to
create
candles
He
worked
hard
to
create
a
formula
that
worked
well
The
formula
combined
with
his
outstanding
artistic
ability
lead
to
the
birth
of
the
Ajello
Candle
Company
In
1785
the
company
earned
the
honor
of
creating
all
the
candles
for
the
Vatican
He
and
his
wife
ran
the
business
keeping
their
children
involved
in
the
processes
from
an
early
age
As
time
went
on
their
children
and
grandchildren
kept
the
business
running
as
well
as
passed
the
family
business
on
to
their
children
By
1862
the
company
had
established
itself
as
a
leader
among
the
candle
making
industry
They
had
also
added
perfumes
and
many
