Cats are nature's fuzziest little killers. But sometimes pet owners don't want their dead prey to end up in the house. Enter Amazon engineer Ben Hamm. Hamm is the owner of a “sweet, murderous cat” named Metric, who is fond of killing birds and bringing them inside. Metric is the reason Hamm learned to code. He initially got the fuzzball to help with a rat infestation problem."He turned out to be a pitiless, unrelenting serial killer," the engineer said in jest during a presentation at 502

Estevan Almanza has worked in the construction industry for nearly a decade, with his pay increasing from to 22 an hour.Over the past few years, he’s seen this industry struggle to find qualified workers. That has been putting extra stress on him and his crew.“A lot of work on us,” Almanza said. “It’s more tiring, but I guess more hours.”And now, it's more concerning because the impact of this labor shortage is being felt across the country.Associated Builders and Contractors projects the construction industry will need nearly half a million more workers in 2020 and an additional 740,000 more in 2021.This shortage of construction workers could end up costing you.“The laborers, they affect everybody’s lives,” said Zsuzsa Balogh, Ph.D., the program coordinator in the Department of Civil Engineering Technology at Metropolitan State University of Denver.She says the reasons for the shortage range from retirement to construction workers retraining themselves for other industries.With less skilled laborers and more of the qualified workers clocking overtime, Balogh believes that extra cost is passed on to consumers.“You can see the increase of the cost,” she said. “Basically, somewhere that money has to show, and the consumers will be the ones to pay that extra money.”In an attempt to help attract more skilled workers, some contractors are offering improved incentives like health care, 401k options and yearly raises.“It’s as bad as we’ve ever seen,” said Todd Smith, vice president of operations for Lawrence Construction Company. “Very few people are going into this industry.” Smith says this shortage of skilled workers is creating a timeline of concern.“Right now, we’ve had ads out for certain positions for six months and haven’t gotten any responses yet,” he said. Smith believes in addition to the spike in retirements, there’s also fewer construction workers because there’s less vocational training available.“We’ve pushed all of our young people into college which college is great for some people for some people but not for everyone,” Smith said.As companies like Lawrence Construction continue to struggle to find staff, bids keep getting higher.“It’s going to be driving the prices up, because it’s now with the labor shortage, now the people can demand a higher pay,” Smith said.Though construction is hard work, Smith says its can also be very rewarding.“You can drive down a stretch of road and tell you family, ‘I worked on this job’” he said. “And you can do that for many years to come.” 2543

Comedian and talk show host Jon Stewart was on Capitol Hill today to advocate for better health care coverage for 9/11 responders, and in his message, he called the lack of lawmakers on Capitol Hill for the meeting an embarrassment to the country."Sick and dying, they brought themselves down here to speak — to no one," Stewart said of how few Congress members were present."They are here to continue fight for what's right," Stewart said ahead of talking about responders who have cancer and were present. He called the lack of lawmaker presence "utterly unacceptable."His bigger message: Give the first responders full coverage care and stop how often them have to come to Capitol Hill to ask for it. He was joined by other advocates and politicians seeking the passage of a bill to provide more coverage.Stewart called for bi-partisan support."This is your opportunity to write a final chapter for these men and women who fought for 18 years — they fought when nobody believed they were sick, they fought when nobody believed their sickness was caused by 9/11, they fought when nobody thought their 1115

Climbing is a sport that's getting more and more popular. For the first time next year, it’ll be an Olympic sport. Additionally, a documentary featuring professional rock climber Alex Honnold took the Oscar win at this year’s Academy Awards!After filming climbers for two decades, filmmaker Peter Mortimer is happy to see more people taking notice. As amazing as it is to see the shots he captures, what may be more breathtaking is what you don’t see: the work behind the scenes. It’s all to bring the world of climbing out of the wilderness and onto the big screen “There's no stadium, there's no arena and nobody really knows what they're doing,” Mortimer says. Mortimer is a climber and the co-founder of Sender Films, the company that produced “The Dawn Wall.” Mortimer and his team followed two men as they attempted to climb a 3,000-foot rock face in Yosemite National Park. The film captured the climbers’ journey from hanging from the wall to even sleeping on the wall. “We knew if they did it, we had to be there,” Mortimer says. “But we also said, for seven years really, were like this is probably never going to happen, but it's worth the risk.” It took the climbers seven years to finally make it. Mortimer and his team were there to capture the moment. Then, the film received more awards than Mortimer ever imagined. One film led to another, and as the climbing industry grew, so did Sender Films. The company has produced more than 40 hours of climbing films, winning two Emmys and putting on a film tour with more than 400 shows around the world. “I thought rock climbing was something that was just a little a little hobby at the time, and I’m just still surprised what it's become,” says Zachary Barr, a director with Sender Films. However, there have been challenges. “I've seen so many of my, you know, really close friends die in the mountains,” Mortimer says. But the filmmaker says he's approached this journey in film, as he would a climb. “No one's climbed that like. That could be an amazing thing, that the path doesn't really exist,” he says. 2085
