Brown Water Running out of the Faucet?
Tape will leave hard-to-remove sticky stuff all over your windows, and you'll spend hours cleaning once the holidays are over. With a staff of four assistant designers, the chief florist works with the first lady, chief usher, and social secretary to plan arrangements and decorations for official and private rooms, as well as all holidays. The chief floral designer designs and arranges of all floral decorations for the first family, both for private entertaining and for state functions. The chief of protocol works together with the social secretary, executive chefs, and chief usher to deal with everything from visit details to formal and informal dinners, transportation, customs and etiquette, and anything else to help ensure a smooth and mutually beneficial visit. The current executive chef, Cristeta Comerford, is the first woman selected for the post and has held the position since 2005. The White House executive pastry chef plans separately for all desserts and pastries to be served at those formal functions and informal meals.

Our current social secretary, Jeremy Bernard, is the first man appointed to the role. Morena Maori Heading up the East Wing's Social Office, on projects ranging in scale from simple teas to dinners for 200 guests, the social secretary works with the chief usher to coordinate domestic staff, and with the chief of protocol on state visits and dinners. The chief calligrapher designs and executes all social and official documents, in the East Wing's Graphics & Calligraphy Office, working on projects such as invitations, greetings from the president, proclamations, military commissions, service awards and place cards. There's ample room in the staff, media and security areas in the back half of the plane, but the president has a personal suite under the cockpit with an office, bathroom, bedroom and workout room. Some have been found to contain “malware” (malicious software) that can also infect a mobile device, while others ask you to log in with Facebook credentials to lift personal data.

Several presidents-elect and their families have spent their last few nights before inauguration in Blair House. The produce that comes from the garden is used in the White House kitchen to prepare both small meals and state dinners, and some of it is donated to facilities that provide food for the needy. Many of the seeds that started the garden came from the Thomas Jefferson Center for Historic Plants at Monticello. The hive is a relatively new addition to the lawn -- it was installed in 2009. The beehive is actually not a particularly pricey endeavor, and those bees earn their keep by pollinating another feature of the South Lawn -- the kitchen garden. Like the beehive, the garden was established in 2009, and it is the first garden of its kind on the White House grounds since World War II. For example, during President Bush's administration in 2003, a trip to London required 904 staffers from Defense, 600 from the armed services, 250 Secret Service officers, 205 White House staff, 103 CIA staff, 44 staff from the State Department, 30 more from within the Cabinet, 18 Senior Advance Office staff, 16 Congressmen and 12 sniffer dogs.

As of 2003, the United States Secret Service is a law enforcement agency under Homeland Security. The United States' first true domestic intelligence and counterintelligence agency, the Secret Service eventually saw many of its responsibilities handed off to the FBI, ATF, ICE and IRS. While former presidents and vice-presidents once earned the protection of the Secret Service for life, 1997 legislation limited that service period to 10 years, moving forward. They will also offer aftermarket accessories such as custom wheels, window tinting, Good morning and paint protection. Veterans should know they will retain their ability to shop for these things and more. The job of president comes with two things you can't put a price on: power and influence. Although any plane carrying the president is referred to as "Air Force One," most people use the name to refer to the two Boeing 747-200B jets built specifically for the president. When traveling short distances, such as to Camp David or even to Andrews Air Force Base, the president uses a helicopter -- Marine One.
