“Man can learn nothing except by going from the known to the unknown.”
— Claude Bernard
Welcome to the JOTW network.
(A note about next week: Tom and I will be working as staff at the National Capital Area Council Boy Scout Centennial Camporee at Goshen Scout Reservation. That means I’ll be out of pocket from Thursday through Monday, so your JOTW will come out late on Monday.)
This is the award-winning free Job of the Week e-mail networking newsletter for professional communicators, dedicated to the positive unanticipated consequences of networking, or as we call it, “nedworking.” JOTW is a cooperative service. That means JOTW relies on the contributions of its members, like you. We share job opportunities, news and information about the job market, as well as swapping stories about life's peculiarities. We connect you with others who are like you, and together we help each other. What a concept. So, ask yourself, “When was the last time I contributed something to share with my fellow nedworkers?”
How does it work? If you find out about a job opportunity in communications, send it to me (lundquist989@cs.com), and I'll share it with the JOTW network. It's that simple. And we share dozens of opportunities each week. Your friends can sign up by sending a blank e-mail to JOTW-subscribe@topica.com.
You are among 11,568 subscribers in this community of communicators.
This is newsletter number 830.
This network is all about connecting communicators and sharing opportunities. And speaking of sharing, since the JOTW newsletter was started, more than 25,000 job opportunities have been listed and shared with members of this network. 28,920 to be exact, as of this morning.
I can’t change your e-mail address for you. But you can. Send a blank e-mail from your old account to JOTW-unsubscribe@topica.com. Then send a blank e-mail from your new account to JOTW-subscribe@topica.com.
If you can read this newsletter, then you are on the JOTW list. If you did not receive your JOTW newsletter by email in your in box this morning, it is because you have a junk mail folder, spam filter, or capacity issues on your end.

*** Cooking with the Troops:
Ned,
My culinary troop support efforts that started as me doing a steak dinner for the wounded at Landstuhl has now turned into something more. Partnering with Bob Miller, who has been doing barbecues at Walter Reed since 2005, we have formed Cooking with the Troops Inc. We have incorporated, filed for 501(c)(3) status, gotten up a placeholder WWW site (http://cwtt.org) and have a lot to do and not much to do it with.
What the JOTW crew will be interested in is our logo contest. We are launching a nationwide contest for a logo, with prizes provided by The Spice House (http://www.thespicehouse.com/); author and knife maker Michael Z. Williamson (http://www.sharppointythings.com/index.php & http://www.michaelzwilliamson.com/); and, singer Gretchen Wilson (http://www.gretchenwilson.com/). Details are on our site at http://cwtt.org/logocontest.html
We hope that you and the JOTW members will help spread the word about the contest. As noted above, we need all the help we can get with this and with all our efforts. We have committed to at least four barbecues and three special food events (one of which will be a New England Clam Bake on the Jersey Shore for wounded from Walter Reed on Sept. 11).
Thanks for your time, help, and service.

*** JOTW Weekly Alternative Selections:
102.) California Property Caretaker Needed for Farm Overlooking Bio-dynamic Vineyard, Hopland, California
Property caretaker help wanted. We'd be thrilled if you are someone with an abiding interest in alternative energy conservation, organic gardening, sustainable farming/living, music, and/or the arts.
This is an opportunity for caretaking a 40-acre farm in a gorgeous northern CA setting. We are seeking a couple (kids welcome), or possibly a single, to care-take our farm/ranch property about 15 minutes south of Ukiah, CA. The position is starting around the first week of May.
The property is beautiful. It is forty acres of rolling hills that was once a sheep ranch. There's a newer house and barn, overlooking a bio-dynamic vineyard. It is very private.
The location is 10 minutes north of Hopland, CA. It is easily accessible, three miles from the highway, all paved road.
Our farm consists of a variety of animals. We have goats, three Cashmere and one unbred Toggenburg dairy goat. There's a small flock of Jacob sheep. We have quite a few chickens and Muscovy ducks. And, a Shetland pony. We also have two Maremma livestock guardian dogs. We are looking forward to the arrival of our Jersey milk cow and her calf sometime next month.
We do use the animals for fiber and food. We have also planted a small orchard and started an organic garden.
We are looking for a property caretaker who can do grounds and pool maintenance and upkeep, help keep and water the garden, as well as tending and feeding of the livestock and daily milking. Also, some occasional handy work and housekeeping. We require someone handy with (own) tools and basic repairs and someone with an ability to understand what it takes to respond to needs as they arise on a rural property with modern infrastructure.
The work will be flexible, averaging about 20 hours per week, with some projects taking more time and some weeks' workload to be lighter, leaving plenty of time for off-site work or personal pursuits. This is a non salary workamper position, so you should have an outside source of income.
We are really seeking self starters who can reason and think for themselves and care for our property as if it were their own. Honesty and reliability are a must. No smokers, please, or folks with dependencies. Children are welcome, but pets must be discussed individually as there may be some issues with the livestock or livestock guardian dogs.
We have a private, flat RV site available with water and electrical hook-ups, and a hook-up to satellite computer is available. We are able to pay electrical unless your usage is excessive, then with a monthly cap. There is an older, refurbished 30' motorhome provided for housing or we welcome your own motorhome. Benefits do include fresh eggs, milk and meat, and food from the (future) garden. As this is a recently acquired property, there is always extra help needed, and that will be paid at the local wage rate.
We would like a commitment of 3-6 months, after a mutual one week and one month review period to be sure everyone is satisfied with the situation. Please email with resume and photos to patriceep@yahoo.com if this property caretaker position sounds like something you are interested in doing.
