Seattle Public Utilities (SPU) is replacing the North Transfer Station with a more modern and efficient facility that will meet the growing future needs of the city.
The current transfer station is now closed. The old facility will be torn down and all new facilities (including new weigh stations, transfer building, and a new recycling center) will be constructed. The new North Transfer Station is expected to open in 2016.
To learn more about what to expect during construction, download the North Transfer Station Project Flyer (pdf).
During the North Transfer Station construction, we encourage you to use the new South Transfer Station facility at 130 South Kenyon Street in South Park. Visit the transfer station website to plan your trip.
New Facility Improvements
At the new facility (pdf), customers will find the amenities listed below that improve upon the current services and experiences.
- Better customer safety.The new facility will have flat floors for unloading and sorting. Without an open pit, customers are safer and less at risk of slips and falls.
- More capacity and efficiency.The new facility will have dedicated space to process more recycling than the current operation. Also, residential and commercial haulers will use separate entrances to improve the flow of traffic and safety for different customers.
- Less odor and noise.The new facility will include more covered and enclosed spaces, a better ventilation system, automated rolling access doors, and entrance and exits designed to minimize noise in the neighborhood. These improvements will reduce the odor and noise coming from the new facility.
- Space to create community. East of the new facility, SPU will create an open space (pdf) where community members can spend time and recreate outside together. Amenities will include a play area for children, a sports court, an open play field, walkways, static exercise stations, and art installations.
- Public Art. The new station will include new public art (made out of recycled materials of course!) See Jean Shin's artist statement and preview the public art.
Project Overview
When the current facility was built over 50 years ago, the city processed all solid waste as garbage, which ended up in landfills.
Today, the city separates solid waste into multiple waste streams, including recyclables and green waste, with multiple end uses in mind. A new North Transfer Station will help us process each type of solid waste more effectively and efficiently than ever before and help us get closer to achieving the City's zero-waste goal. The new station will also be a good neighbor, with a site that has been designed with the community's input and will incorporate many features that reduce traffic congestion, noise, odor and other neighborhood effects. Please review the Public Engagement and Communication Plan (pdf) for more extensive details about the project activities and goals.
History of Community Involvement
Early in the planning process, SPU committed to addressing the concerns of the surrounding community about present and future operations at the North Transfer Station. SPU worked very closely with a stakeholder advisory group, community members, station users, and others throughout the planning and conceptual design process to identify and address community concerns, develop a facility that meets all of SPU's operational needs, and improve the facility's presence in the neighborhood. Please see the project's community involvement page for more information about these efforts.
Environmental Studies
SPU has also sought to create the greatest public benefit with the least environmental impact. Please visit the project's environmental studies page for more information about the efforts SPU took to find this balance.

From farm to table
By Tara M. Hardy '12
Third generation farmer Lewis Dozier believes "it is the first responsibility of the farmer to feed the village." Feast DownEast is a growing local effort to connect those farmers with consumers in the region. The owner of Dozier Grains and Produce, located in Brunswick County, says it is "win-win" for Southeastern North Carolina.
UNCW hosts an annual conference that draws about 270 farmers, restaurant owners, school district representatives and retail vendors to discuss strategies to enhance Southeastern North Carolina's local foods market, making it easier for farmers to sell their goods and easier for regional food vendors and consumers to buy fresh ingredients.
Tony McEwen '01, who serves as the economic development officer for U.S. Rep. Mike McIntyre, agrees with Dozier. "It's a win for the economy, a win for the environment and a win for the health of the individuals."
Feast DownEast is an initiative developed by the Southeastern North Carolina Food Systems Program (SENCFS) to expand the influence of local farmers in the community by encouraging people to consume more locally produced food products. The program involves connecting farmers to local businesses and consumers to create a more economically significant and sustainable regional food system.
Leslie Hossfeld '83, an associate professor in the Department of Sociology at UNCW, and Mac Legerton of the Center for Community Action in Lumberton, co-founded SENCFS in 2006. It started as an effort to address poverty due to massive job losses in the manufacturing industry in Southeastern North Carolina.
They later turned their attention to address other challenged economic sectors, specifically agriculture. Feast DownEast is working to create a fully integrated food system to alleviate poverty and to boost the economy.
"We look at how to help small scale farmers build capacity to participate in the new market," said Hossfeld. "We are creating a demand for local food.
A Local Success
Feast DownEast provides farmers with the support and resources to enhance their business. One of the most effective resources is a commercial-grade kitchen, located in the Burgaw Historic Train Depot, available for rent to farmers and food vendors who use local ingredients in their products. The Burgaw Incubator Kitchen is part of the Feast DownEast processing and distribution center and aids in the program's economic development efforts.
Mike Clay is the owner and founder of Custom Fit Meals, a local business that relies on area farmers and the Burgaw kitchen to produce fresh and healthy prepackaged meals. When he weighed 300 pounds, Clay decided it was time to make a change to live a healthier life. He began eating only fresh and local foods from natural sources. After losing 100 pounds in one year, he knew he was doing something right.
"It changed my life forever," said Clay. "I was inspired to share my success with others."
He founded Custom Fit Meals to serve clients who want to eat healthfully, but lack the time to shop for and prepare their own cuisine. Two years ago, Clay began using the Burgaw Incubator Kitchen for Custom Fit Meals. He now has six chefs on staff to prepare and package meals using only fresh and local ingredients.
"It's not a diet, it's a lifestyle," said Drew Loesch, executive chef at Custom Fit Meals. "We have bacon, too. We prepare things in moderation." Clay's kitchen crew consists of energetic supporters of the organization's mission to improve the health and lives of others.
Clay said using a ready resource like the Burgaw Incubator Kitchen was "a great starting point. It allows us to focus on the product and growing the business."
Clay's business has been extremely successful; he was awarded the Burgaw Chamber of Commerce's Entrepreneur of the Year award and was a finalist for the Coastal Entrepreneur of the Year award from UNCW and the Greater Wilmington Business Journal.
"I've seen a lot of peoples' lives change," said Shane French '09. The former UNCW baseball player now works at the flat-top grill for Custom Fit Meals, preparing everything from turkey sausage patties and frittata fillings to sautéed vegetables.
The Burgaw Incubator Kitchen has received statewide recognition for its success and impact on local business. In November 2011 Governor Beverly Purdue visited Burgaw to present a Small Business Community Award, one of eight given throughout the state.
UNCW Campus Dining continuously focuses its efforts on making its services more sustainable through recycling, energy conservation, waste reduction, growing ingredients on campus and buying food from local farmers.
Currently, campus dining invests more than 11 percent of its food budget on locally grown foods. Since Wagoner Hall, UNCW's largest dining facility, spends $150,000 to $200,000 a month on food, even a small percentage of that budget can make a big difference to local farms.
UNCW signed on to participate in the 10% Campaign in the spring of 2011. The campaign encourages individuals and businesses to spend 10 percent of their current food budget locally to help build North Carolina's food economy. About 4,500 people and 520 businesses currently participate. Several other N.C. schools have joined the effort, including: the University of North Carolina Greensboro, Duke University, Elon University and the University of North Carolina Asheville.
"We have had a very good response from students so far. They seem to really love it. We just need to continue to get the word out," said Rebecca Hendry, the Campus Dining representative on the sustainability committee at UNCW.
Campus Dining has also started several gardens to contribute to the sustainability effort, including a small hydroponics garden beside Wag-Out, the grab-and-go dining option located next to Wagoner Hall. This indoor, water-based garden is just one example of the many changes being made around campus to "go green" and, in this case, make campus dining more delicious and nutritious.
Campus Dining hosts the Chef's Table at Wagoner Hall every Thursday to showcase the chefs' skills at transforming ingredients donated by local farmers into a feast.
"Using all the different ingredients at the Chef's Table is like Chopped," said Nick Denning '12 in reference to the hit Food Network reality cooking show. "This food would definitely not be on the Chopping Block."
The farmers are able to set up a table nearby to answer questions and provide students with information about the products they provide. The chefs are not the only ones who notice an improvement in the quality of their food.
"It's very flavorful," said Brian Kurtz '12, after tasting the Thai-chicken rice bowl served at a recent Chef's Table. The meal included vegetable sauté with sweet and sour sauce featuring sprouts and fresh lime basil grown on campus. "They made good use of all the ingredients. That was quite delicious!"
Across campus, students can access more local food at the Green Spot. This is the most recent addition to the dining options offered at the Hawk's Nest, located in Fisher University Union. Students can watch as their food is prepared using fresh local ingredients. Some favorite options include breakfast wraps with local turkey and eggs and barbeque sliders with local sweet potato fries. The Green Spot has quickly become one of the most popular choices among students, and competes heavily with Quiznos and Chick-Fil-A.
"The Green Spot is an answer to campus asking for more vegetarian and vegan options," said Matt Rogers, the food service director for Campus Dining. "It's very impressive and shows a lot about the students on campus."
Students can also find local products at the convenient stores located throughout campus. Cottle Organics was the first farm to be featured at Wagoner Hall as well as one of the first to supply the convenience stores on campus with fresh, local produce.
"It's nice to be able to produce good, healthy food that tastes good," said Herbie Cottle, the owner of Cottle Organics and father of two UNCW alumni. "We have been getting a lot of positive feedback from the students."
Feast DownEast encourages community members to be proactive and contribute to the local economy.
"It's about changing ways as a consumer," said Leslie Hossfeld '83, UNCW associate professor of sociology and Feast DownEast co-founder. "Food is cheaper in season and healthier because it comes straight from the farm. People need to think about eating seasonally and locally and look for restaurants that choose to serve local foods."
Dining In
The easiest way is to buy from local farmers. Farmers' markets are a great way for people to get in contact with local farmers and to buy their products. Many communities have weekly farmers' markets; locally they can be found in downtown Wilmington on North Water Street, at Poplar Grove Plantation, Carolina Beach, Wrightsville Beach, Southport, Leland and, on occasion, even at UNCW.
The Feast Down East Buying Club offers a convenient way for area residents to get their fill of locally grown and produced foods. Shoppers log on at FeastDownEast.org and make their selections by product, farm or growing method. These are then taken to one of three drop off points - THE POD at UNCW, Cameron Art Museum or the Burgaw Historic Train Depot - where shoppers pick up and pay for their purchases.
Also, there are a growing number of grocery stores that
sell local food products. In the Wilmington area there
are places such as Lovey's Natural Foods & Café, The
Fresh Market, Tidal Creek Co-Op and Carolina Farmin'. Even chain
grocery stores are stocking more locally
grown foods.
"It's important to buy what's in season and buy what's a good value," said Linda Watson, one of the workshop leaders at the Feast DownEast conference. Watson is an environmental activist and author of Wildly Affordable Organic. Her book helps readers shop and cook in season on a budget. The book includes shopping lists, season charts, recipes and helpful tips. This is just one of the many resources for anyone who wants to start buying local.
Dining Out
Another way to buy local food products is to dine at restaurants that buy from local vendors. Owners understand the importance of providing customers with the freshest ingredients available. They also know that the best place to get these ingredients is right down the street.
"Having a relationship with farmers allows you to grow your business," said Tommy Mills during the Seasonal Menu Planning workshop at Feast DownEast. "You have to work closely with farmers to address your specific need." Mills is the owner of Little Pond Caterers, a local catering business that also hosts restaurant-style dinners at The Front Room.
Thanks to the growing popularity of the buying local trend, many online directories list restaurants that buy local. In the downtown Wilmington area some of these restaurants include Crow Hill, Circa 1922, Marc's on Market, Brasserie Du Soleil, YoSake and Catch.
"We try to buy as much from small organic farms as possible," said Derrick Cook, owner and chef at Crow Hill in downtown Wilmington. "This has a huge impact on the taste of our produce, seafood and meat. By buying our product locally and in season we assure our patrons the best tasting ingredients available."

When Ken Woodcock, a retired Marine from West Grove, Pennsylvania, bought his 10th Corvette-a Millennium Yellow '00 convertible-in 2004, he planned on keeping it 100 percent stock. But what's a man to do when his wife tells him to go get some mods?
"I bought my first Corvette shortly after getting out of the Marines and getting back from Viet Nam," Woodcock says. "It was a Fathom Green '69 427/390 coupe, and it began my love affair with the Corvette. Fast-forward 32 years, and the love affair is still going strong. So when I bought a C5 and told my wife, Joann, I was going to keep it all-original, I thought she'd agree with my decision-but she didn't." It went like this:
Ken: "Honey, this one I'm keeping totally stock. I'm not changing a thing."
Joann: "Yeah, but it just doesn't sound like a Corvette. You'll have to change a few things."
What the two didn't realize then was that Ken was about to embark upon a four-year mission to turn the stock C5 into a supercharged, 640hp ZL7 supercar capable of besting Z06s at the track, on the road course, and on the street.
Year One
"My first mods were to make the Corvette sound more like a vicious animal," Woodcock says. "I began with an x-type pipe system, Random Tech cats, B&B Bullet mufflers, and 3-inch stainless steel pipes. That gave the Vette the growl it needed."
Design alterations followed. Holcomb's Auto Body in West Grove, Pennsylvania, installed an aerodynamically inspired ACI front splitter and ground effects, along with a Caravaggio rear wing. "After the first set of mods, I liked the way the Corvette looked-and the exhaust had certainly boosted the performance level. Even so, I didn't feel it was quite fast enough or unique enough," Woodcock says.
Year Two
Woodcock next contacted SLP Performance Parts of Toms River, New Jersey, to purchase the company's ZL7 427 C5 Corvette PerformancePac. This all-encompassing engine-upgrade package comes with 1.85-ratio rocker arms, an 85mm MAF sensor, a Blackwing cold-air induction system, a DiabloSport II programmer with custom SLP tuning, and an LS6 intake manifold. Used together, these parts are said to boost the output of an LS1 Vette to around 427 hp. To free up even more ponies, Woodcock also added a set of LG Motorsports' highly regarded long-tube headers with 1.75-inch primaries.
Year Three
"I really liked the way the Corvette performed, but I wanted more," Woodcock says. Accordingly, he took his C5 to East Coast Supercharging (ECS) in Cream Ridge, New Jersey, where 4.10 gears and a case-hardened output shaft were added.
That would have been enough for most Corvette owners, but Woodcock admits that he was by now fully in the throes of mod fever, and so the metamorphosis continued. He returned the car to Holcomb's, where it received a pair of LSD vertical Lambo doors, an ACP carbon-fiber-and-fiberglass hood, and custom-painted stripes. "I started to win a lot more car shows after the third year of mods," he says. "My Corvette really stood out, and I liked the attention it received."
Year Four
Woodcock decided he wanted the engine compartment to look as good as the rest of the car, so he contacted Creative Engine Covers in Midlothian, Virginia, for a full complement of chrome underhood jewelry. The bechromed items included a cowl insert and bolt kit, a bumper insert and bolt kit, an alternator bracket, a brake-booster cover, a master-cylinder cover, a power-steering-reservoir cover, and a dipstick handle. Woodcock also procured a chrome alternator from Tuff Stuff to add to the engine-bay presentation.

Editor's note: This month's installment for Project Unfair (from Prodigy Customs and II Much Fabrication) deals with a familiar subject, but with an Unfair twist. We promised lots of tech and insight into the decisions and trade-offs of building this car, and headers are at once familiar, but also full of design choices. Read on to see how John Parsons and Frank Serafine decided on this particular header design.
Project Unfair, our '69 uber Camaro needs a set of headers that can support 1,400 hp. That's a lot of horsepower, and as you might suspect, there isn't any ready-made solution, which means author Parsons had to make a custom set to meet Unfair's unusual requirements.
There is a bewildering array of design choices when making custom headers. We consulted the experts at Cone Engineering, Specialty Products Design, Burns Stainless, along with Jim Bell at Kenne-Bell (who manufactures the 3.6L supercharger that will assist in making all that power) and engine builder Pat Musi at Pat Musi Performance. We had originally planned on building tri-Y headers (see sidebar), but the consensus was that a traditional four-into-one header design would work better with the big huffer.
With that major decision done, a whole new bunch of design decisions came into play: What primary tube diameter? Should the diameter be the same, or should it step up in size along the tube? How long should the primary tubes be? How important is getting all the tubes the same length? What size should the collector be? Is a merge collector important? What size should the exhaust beyond the collector be? And finally, what material should be used?
We quickly settled the material question by going with 304 stainless steel. It's an excellent alloy for headers as it resists corrosion at typical header temperatures, is easy to weld, and can be cut and fitted with the right tools, though the right saw is needed.
With the material chosen, the next question is the header's primary tube diameter. There is a lot of information around about the importance of this parameter, and some of it is contradictory. Bell had sized some headers with his big supercharger and found that 2 1/8-inch primaries made the most power, but only about 20 hp more than 2-inch designs.
However, given the dual mode of the car (1,200-1,400 hp for drag racing and top-speed runs, 800 hp for road racing and auto-crossing), you also have to consider performance when operating at the lower horsepower. While too small of a primary tube restricts airflow, too large of a primary tube causes a drop in exhaust gas velocity, and likewise a decrease in performance. By compromising on the tube diameter, you are trying to get the best performance possible in each configuration using the same header, even though you'll forfeit maximum performance in one mode.
Given that, we turned to Rich Craig at Cone Engineering and discovered something else: 2-inch mandrel-bent stainless tube was widely available and reasonably priced, while 2 1/8-inch tube is less common and therefore much more expensive. Not only did the decision to go with 2-inch versus 2 1/8-inch tube work for performance, it also saved some cash-never a bad thing, even in a high-end build.
Now comes the daunting task of trying to get 1,400 hp under the car and through a full exhaust. Basic airflow calculations (see sidebar) quickly show that a 4-inch dual exhaust is optimal for 1,400 hp, though a 3-inch exhaust is good enough for 800 hp. Not only is there a dual-mode constraint with the primary tube diameter in the headers, but now there's another one: how does one fit 4-inch tubing under a car that doesn't even have room for 3.5 inches? Compromise and ingenuity is how.

"That's just the weird part about MMA sometimes, that sometimes it just goes so quick. You have a guy that you're building up, and the next thing you know, they get knocked out. Once something goes wrong, everyone hates them or just doesn't support them any more. That's the tough part for us as a brand."
Molenkamp's entry into MMA came through his work in action sports. As a marketing head for shoe company Osiris, he sponsored several athletes. Then, seeing the sport boom following the success of "The Ultimate Fighter," he and his partner started an apparel company, Throwdown Industries. The partnership failed after a year, but he formed another company, Triumph United, which continues to sponsor athletes.
Unlike those early days, Triumph now pays for the privilege to back UFC fighters. The company has managed to keep its doors open despite several "difficult" periods in its history. At one point, Molenkamp pulled it out of the MMA market for a year. But seeing revenues decline, he got back in the game.
"We see that being in there is worth being in there, but for a lot smaller piece of the pie nowadays," he said.
UFC featherweight Cole Miller recently spoke to MMAjunkie.com about the difficulties of securing sponsors critical to his bottom line and success as a professional athlete. Frustrated at chasing a shrinking pool of money, he drew a line in the sand about what he would accept from companies and urged other fighters to do the same.
Molenkamp is sympathetic to Miller's plight, and yet spoke at length about the challenges facing a company that wants to sponsor an athlete and whether it's possible to make a return on investment. Like his deal with Ferguson, there was a surge of interest in his company, but little to sustain a relationship.
The way it is now, Triumph is selective with its investments.
On how the sponsorship market has changed in the past few years:
"What the main difference is now, and what a lot of these guys don't see, is that a brand has to put out a lot as a sponsor just to sponsor the fighters. We have to pay the UFC first of all, and then we have to pay the fighters. And then we have to pay our overhead for building the equipment or building the clothing we're trying to sell to retailers that have literally almost have gone out of business in the last couple of years. That's just where it's become very tough. Quite honestly, we're not seeing a lot of return on investment."
On the UFC's role in the marketplace:
"The UFC is not doing much to help us out, and there's not as many retailers out there. So it makes it a lot tougher for us to even do anything with guys nowadays than before. Four or five years ago, there was way more opportunity to sell a product and get stuff out there. Now, there's just a finite group of people that are buying it.
"We pay them a lot of money just to be in the game, and just to have our logo seen. It's almost like an advertising cost. But at the same time, we're expendable. If we're not there, it doesn't really make a difference, and that's just something I'm not used to. I come from the action-sports world, where it's a family and you know the brands that are involved and you know what to expect. Whereas in MMA, you go back five years, and think about how many big brands have come and spent a lot of money in the space, and then left.
"I don't think these guys realize the UFC is putting on fights every other weekend, and it just adds up. And if you're not sponsoring somebody all the time, you're not in there, and then your investment in the UFC is pretty much gone."
On the effect of the sponsor "tax":
"I think in the beginning, it was a way to keep people out that weren't ready to play. But in time, you just saw a lot of guys that spent that money initially, and they confused all the fighters. Now, the fighters are like, well... If you look at the lineage of some of these athletes, where they started in the UFC to the championship level, they've had multiple sponsors across the board. None of them are really consistent. That's where the fans get confused, because they don't know what to buy. The big retailers outside of MMA, they're not even touching MMA like they used to. That's where it's hurting us. That's what makes it tough for a sponsor.
"You've got somebody fighting on a Facebook card. How are we going to pay you when we don't even know if we're going to get anything back? If we do decide to give you some equipment, or if we give you a couple hundred bucks, we're still giving you something. At the end of the day, it's still better than nothing."
On the price of the tax:
"I think it's just who you are. There's no real rhyme or reason on what it is. I just think they evaluate your brand and predetermine (that you're a) $100,000 brand. Or, 'We like you and think that you're cool.' I've heard there's brands that don't even pay, and it's insane to me that some brands don't pay. At the end of the day, the UFC can do whatever they want. It's their company. But it's just not building an endemic market. There's no real validation on how they pick out what number you're paying, at least nothing I've seen. What we're paying, it was just, 'Hey, this is what you're paying.' If you want to stay in the game, you've got to pay the price."
On the unpredictability of the market:
"You could literally sponsor a fighter for a couple of fights, and the next thing you know, he's got a title fight. Now, all of a sudden, the agents and the managers are asking for a lot more money that's not completely in line with what your sales are, and you have to take that risk. You either do it or you don't. If you don't do it, you see all the hard work that you've done go to another sponsor, and potentially [the fighter] wins the fight and it's their big deal. But if they lose, you're out of business. So it's the biggest gamble ever."
On the role of managers:
"Some of them are really good, and some of them are really bad. The fighter wants to have some business separation between his training and his fighting and his business, and he hires somebody to work that angle for them. Some of these guys are educated and they have an idea of what they want to do, and some of these guys that are just friends that are trying to pick up the slack. It doesn't always work out. I've seen it multiple times where a guy is trying to broker a deal for his friend, and they're not really looking at it for what it is. They're really just trying to make as much money as they can for the fighter for that one fight, which is not wrong. But at the same time, it's not looking for him long-term. That's where it affects all of us."
On the responsibility of the fighter:
"You hear that a lot from these guys 'I just want to fight.' But being a professional fighter, it doesn't mean you just fight. There's a lot more. You have to build your name. You have to build who you are so people want to watch you fight and actually want to support you. At the end of the day, they're paying to watch you fight. The fans have to pay to watch these guys fight, which goes back to salaries. Obviously, that's where sponsors look, because if they're a notable athlete, they're going to sell some product. And that's where the game starts.
"As a brand, we're always going to be very cautious because we do realize there's that point in time when, if we start working with somebody early on and they start moving up the ranks and they reach that level of being a champion, we know the numbers are going to change. There's a certain point where we have to decide if we're going to move on because it has to make sense for us financially. If it doesn't, we're not going to do it."

Lake of the Ozarks Square Dancers - 1953
Link to Website:
Dublin Core
Alternative Title
The Lake of the Ozarks Square Dancers, were based in Tuscumbia, Missouri. The group toured around the Midwest and eventually reached national fame after appearances with caller L. D. Keller on the Ted Mack Amateur Hour. Their energetic dance style was very popular with television audiences; this clip comes from their second television appearance, recorded in Kansas City and broadcast on June 13, 1953. This success led to their becoming hired as The Grand Old Opry Square Dancers, regular performers on that popular country music television show. They performed several shows in Reno, Nevada and the Blue Room in New Orleans, among many others.
Author Dan Peek describes the history of the group in these words: "In the late 1940's a young Ozark Jig dancer, Tolliver Lawson, traveled to Kansas City on a family visit. While there he observed a troupe of western style square dancers who performed with taps on their shoes. Tolliver immediately procured some taps and upon his return to the Ozarks, as the first tap shod Ozark Jig dancer, "tore up" the dance floor at the next community picnic. Soon all his friends had taps on their Jig dancing shoes.
"A group of those friends, spearheaded by Lee and Joyce (Williams) Mace, formed a Jig dance troupe and shortly were in demand throughout the Ozarks. Not long after, they came to national attention. The "Lake of the Ozarks Square Dancers" performed at the National Folk Festival and at such high profile events as the Kansas City Centennial and the Chicago Fair. By the early 1950's they had appeared on national television shows, the "Ted Mack Amateur Hour" and the "Today Show with Dave Garroway" and were performing at major night clubs and entertainment venues across the country.
"Nashville's Grand Ole Opry hired the troupe to be "The Grand Ole Opry Square Dancers". The Ozark Jig dancers were a sensation.
"In addition to live performances, the Ozark Jig dancers filmed nearly 100 nationally distributed TV shows that would become the historically important "Country Classic" DVD series. As "Stars of the Grand Ole Opry" they met and became friends with their fellow Stars. Mother Maybelle Carter had them over for dinner and poker, Gene Autry invited them to a dinner he hosted at the Andrew Jackson Hotel. The Ozark Jig Dancers and the Maces had made it in Nashville."
Peek's book, Live! at the Ozark Opry, is available in print and online. A review of Peek's book appeared in the Old-TIme Herald.
Missouri fiddler Charlie Walden described their performance: ""The dancing in the video, although somewhat stylized for the performance, is entirely genuine Ozarks square dancing. Especially the footwork, called "jig-dancing," is the real McCoy and was unique to Missouri's Ozarks. That square dance group with Lee Mace was legendary among the old timers, now-deceased, that I used to play fiddle with."
- Information about Gene Spencer, who played guitar for the dance group; this site has a lot of information about the Lake of Ozarks team.
- Lee Mace, Tolliver Lawson, and Carl Williams formed the dance team at the Tuscumbia picnic. The idea of dancing on the Grand Ole Opry was started by a conversation between Carl and Tolliver. Tolliver spearheaded the group's appearances on the Grand Ole Opry.
- Callers for the group were Spurgeon Atwell and Glen Morgan.
- Mace later went on to found the Ozark Opry. There's also a videotaped interview with Lee Mace that focuses on the creation of the Ozark Opry. More information about the Ozark Opry is available.
- After a while, management of the team was shared by the dancers, especially Tolliver Lawson.
- Memoir by Lois Mace Webb, sister of Lee Webb, about the Lake of Ozarks Square Dance team (scroll 3/4 of the way down that page)
- Information about Jim Skiles, who was fiddler for the team; more information is on a related web page
- Buford Foster founded a children's square dance team, The Tadpoles, from Camdenton, Missouri, also dancing in Ozark style. We hope to add moving images of that team to this site.

Bench Shirts
Since the 1980's Titan had created the design and concept for the revolutionary bench shirt design which was shelved until 2002 and has since been setting the standard for IPF Approved bench shirts.

All singlets feature a power cut and full-length leg with a comfortable spandex leg band.
Our Singlet Features:
Our Singlet Features:
- Non supportive singlet for raw meets. Also an excellent non-supportive suit for benching or for deadlifters who prefer non supportive suits
- Cut and manufactured specifically for powerlifting, this is NOT a logoed wrestling singlet
- Features Comprexx© fabric. Comprexx© provides muscle control compression for active athletes. Athletes muscles keep warm and loose enabling high levels of performance.

Titan Power Wash
Item # T2009 It's Back!! For years, we have been asked how suits and shirts should be cleaned. Truth is many lifters would not even wash their gear for fear that washing would do more harm than good. After eighteen years, the solution is finally here. Our research resulted in the discovery of a patented formula that bonds to any synthetic fiber to help strengthen and add body. After contacting the patent holder and manufacturer, a highly concentrated formula was developed specifically for Titan. No other version is close to the strength offered by Titan Power Wash. Titan Power Wash cleans by removing contaminants, amino acids and salts that result from body perspiration which can break down fibers and the strength integrity of fabrics. Moreover, it reduces the likelihood of runs. Learn More >

Willimantic, Conn. - More than 12,000 family members and friends filled the XL Center in Hartford on Tuesday, May 13, to cheer on their sons and daughters, brothers and sisters, as 1,162 undergraduates and 65 graduate students received their diplomas at Eastern Connecticut State University's 124th Commencement exercises.
Nicholas Lawson, director of field human resources for Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières, was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters, Honoris Causa during the Commencement Exercises, and offered remarks following presentation of his honorary degree.
Commencement Speaker Nicholas Lawson
Lawson has worked with Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) for the past 17 years, a group he proudly describes as the "preeminent emergency medical humanitarian organization in the world." As Director of Field Human Resources for MSF since 2007, Lawson is responsible for the oversight of 35,000 staff across the globe, and leads the development and implementation of MSF's vision as a member of the MSF Executive Management team. Over the years, he has traveled to and coordinated humanitarian and medical relief efforts in Uganda, Pakistan, Burundi, East Timor, South Sudan and Afghanistan.
Lawson spoke of the organization's core principles of service, independence, impartiality, neutrality, ethics and engagement, and described his early years with MSF, when he faced the challenge of bringing medical supplies to civilians in Afghanistan caught in the crossfire of that nation's civil war. In the end, he said MSF's focus was simple: to "alleviate the suffering of vulnerable people in crisis."
His charge to Eastern's 2014 graduating class was equally simple: "What place does service and engagement in the public realm have in the careers we dream for ourselves? Is that activism? Is it volunteerism? Is it civics? Will it be a lifelong professional choice? . . . You will be richer than you can possibly imagine if you do actually make that choice."
Eastern President Elsa Nunez
Other speakers at the Commencement Exercises included Eastern President Elsa Nunez; Catherine Smith, commissioner of the Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development, who represented the Board of Regents for Higher Education; Senior Class President Zachary Yeager; and Brittany Lane '14, who delivered the Senior Class Address. Other members of the platform party included Gregory Gray, president of the Board of Regents; Willimantic Mayor Ernie Eldridge; and other Eastern officials.
Nunez gave her traditional charge to the graduates, telling them, "I hope you look forward to the next chapter in your lives with optimism and expectation, knowing that the faculty and staff on our campus have done their utmost to prepare you for this day."
Nunez cited examples of applied learning experiences ranging from internships at ESPN and Cigna to study abroad trips to Costa Rica and Switzerland, to undergraduate research into genetics and emotional health among senior citizens, to working in South Carolina on anti-hunger efforts, as examples of the hands-on experiences that Eastern students receive in applying their liberal arts education.
"Never be satisfied with a half-hearted effort, never assume that the way things have been done is the way we should do things in the future. Intellectual curiosity and a moral commitment to a better life for all people are hallmarks of a liberal arts university in our democracy. The best way to honor Eastern and our faculty is to remain true to what you have learned here."
Nunez closed her remarks with a quote from the 19th-century Hindu monk Swami Vivekananda: "Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life -- think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success."
More than 40 percent of the graduates were the first in their families to earn a bachelor's degree. As Connecticut's only public liberal arts university, Eastern draws students from 164 of the state's 169 towns. Approximately 90 percent of graduates stay in Connecticut to launch their careers, contribute to their communities and raise their families.
Senior Class President Zachary Yeager presented the Senior Class Gift to President Nunez--an annual Class of 2014 scholarship--and said, "College has been the time to make mistakes and learn from them, a time to challenge ourselves, and a time to step out of our comfort zone . . . We will carry the memories that we have made in the past few years at Eastern with us for a lifetime."
Catherine Smith, commissioner of the Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development, offered remarks on behalf of the Board of Regents for Higher Education. "I want you to know how deeply moved and excited we are about the great work you have done to earn your degree tonight," said Smith. "This is a significant milestone, and you should be very proud. The journey isn't easy, and there are no shortcuts to earning an undergraduate degree, but the benefits are enormous. Eastern has prepared you well for all the challenges you will face as the 21st century-economy continues to change. Pursue your career with the same dedication that has brought you to this fabulous day."
In her Senior Class Address, Brittany Lane urged the graduates to "pack your bags" and get ready for a new journey. She listed five items to include on the trip. First on the list: a belief that "every day is a great day to be alive," something she learned from one of her professors, Dan Switchenko. Second on her list was a commitment to helping others. "Volunteer; give back to your community; give back to your school. It is far more rewarding than a paycheck."
The third item on her list was to live life with kindness. "You never know the impact that your kind words could have on someone's day or even their life. Make your mark." Lane told her peers to also "remember to take the memories you have made at Eastern with you . . . These are the moments that stand the test of time."
Finally, Lane reminded her classmates that "there is no place like home. For your duration of time spent here at Eastern, it has become a second home . . . a close community of students from different walks of life coming together to live and learn in harmony . . . No matter where your journey takes you after today, no matter how many bumps in the road you may hit, always remember that we all have a place here at Eastern. You are all important. You will all accomplish incredible things; and our journey starts today."
From the Governor's Foot Guard Color Guard in attendance, to the plaintive sound of the bagpipes of the St. Patrick's Pipe Band and the pre-event music of the Thread City Brass Quintet, this year's graduation ceremonies again reflected the University's Commencement traditions of dignity and grace. University Senate President Gregory Kane presided over the commencement exercises; seniors Emily Chuber, Rachel Jung and Emma Kuehnle sang "America the Beautiful"; Senior Mame Fatou Diop gave the invocation; and History Professor Anna Kirchmann was recognized as the 2014 Distinguished Professor Award recipient.

I figured this might be a good place to ask. I'm writing a factual book about horses and I need illustrations for it. Simple line drawings to illustrate a point per page in a humourous way. It needs exaggerated expressions on horses'/ponies' faces etc. Along the lines of Thelwell style ideally, but of course all artists do things differently and my ideas are not set in stone.
Is anyone here, or do you know, an artist who can do such work and would like to be involved in the project? This book has been a long time in gestalt and not got any further because the pictures are such an integral part of it and all I can do is stick men and smileys. (And those are lucky to come out smiling!)

Sandra Kidby has put the text of his speach up on the PJSM site
Moderators: Tonyblack, Jason, Toothy
What a lovely story!Stultus Saxum wrote:Very odd and small world:
I met with a friend yesterday having not seen her for a while. We got onto talking about books and, inevitably, Pterry's books (I introduced her to them about eleven years ago, but not to her taste, sadly). She then told me that she met him at the Tory conference as she was doing the event management. It was she that cued him onto and brought him off the stage (as Rob had gone into the auditorium, apparently). He asked that she do it specifically as he would remember her face.
She's being doing this type of thing for many years and heard countless speeches by umpteen (I've been told this is a big number) people. She said that Pterry's speech was the first that almost brought her to tears (and that he's a very nice man ).

Donated Trees to be accepted October 1-31
WI (October 8th, 2012) At Christmas, for
many families it's
difficult to afford toys and gifts for children to put under the tree,
let alone the Christmas tree. Requests to The Salvation Army for food,
clothing and toys were up last Christmas, and 2012 promises to be
another difficult year for many families.
Treetime Christmas
Creations, a national premium artificial tree and decor company, is
teaming up with The Salvation Army this year to help Milwaukee area
families in need with its "Tree Trade-In" program for the month of
October. This is the first year the program will include the Milwaukee
area, as it was unveiled in 2011 for the Chicago and suburban areas in
Milwaukee area families are invited to
donate their gently used artificial Christmas tree (3-feet and larger)
to families in need by scheduling a pick-up at 1-800-SA-TRUCK or
visiting www.satruck.org.
Area residents who donate a tree will receive an online coupon code for
an extra 10 percent off any new online Treetime artificial Christmas
tree purchase (which includes free shipping), to be redeemed by October
31. For more information, visit www.treetime.com.
collected Christmas trees will be donated to The Salvation Army for
distribution to area families in need, and in time for the holiday this
year. The first annual Tree Trade-In program in 2011 benefited nearly
200 families in the Chicagoland area. Last year, The Salvation Army in
Milwaukee County distributed 100,000 toys to needy children of low
income and unemployed families.
bsp; &
so many people wanting to celebrate the holiday season, it's hard to
imagine Christmas time without a decorated tree," says Laurie Kane,
Owner, Treetime Christmas Creations. "We are thrilled to partner
The Salvation Army to help bring joy to families this holiday, while
providing a 'greener' way for residents to pass on their Christmas
for more years of enjoyment, rather than adding trees to landfills."
families simply can't afford a Christmas tree, or could better spend
the money on food and clothing," said Captain Gerhard Scheler, The
Salvation Army. "Plus, they can continue to use an artificial
tree year after year. More than 56,000 families shop in our Milwaukee
retail stores in the months leading up to the holiday season, and
thousands more request toys and clothing through our Corps community
centers. We are pleased to partner with Treetime Christmas Creations to
bring the joy of Christmas into the homes of families in need."About The Salvation ArmyThe
Salvation Army is the largest social service organization in the
world. In Milwaukee County, The Salvation Army operates 85 programs,
including disaster relief, shelter, meals, rehabilitation programs,
child care and head start, senior services and Christmas assistance.
For more information call 1-800-264-6412 or visit our website at www.SAmilwaukee.org.About Treetime Christmas CreationsTreetime
Christmas Creations features more than 200 varieties of Christmas
trees, as well as wreaths, garland, storage containers, accessories and
other holiday décor. Treetime artificial Christmas trees are
exclusively by seasoned designers that understand the importance of
style, beauty, reliability and quality craftsmanship. Owned and
operated by Joe and Laurie Kane, Treetime products are available to

Scotland has the Loch Ness Monster and Nepal may have the Yeti but North America plays host to the most enduring and popular legendary creature of all. We call it "Bigfoot" and whether you believe that this monstrous, hairy Hominid haunts wild places or not, you can't help but admire the ability of this creature to persist in local legends, movies, and novels. At Design Toscano, we honor this legendary creature with detailed sculptures fit for the best of gardens. The following are two of the benefits associated with putting a Bigfoot Sculpture on display:
- Entertain guests with unique and wonderful statuary: Some of the neighbors might have gardens with beautiful animal garden statues but how many can boast a realistic sculpture of a Bigfoot or two? A statue of North America's favorite mystery monster is always going to be a conversation piece and guests won't help but be impressed by someone with the type of insight and bold creativity needed to decorate the yard with a Bigfoot Statue.
- Add a bit of mystery to the backyard: Use a sculpture of Bigfoot to help convert a mundane, normal garden into a wilder, more enchanting place that reminds us of the mysteries that may still lurk in the deep woods, canyons, and wilderness areas of North America.
Buy a Bigfoot Statue from Design Toscano to decorate the garden with unique, high quality garden statuary.

Love, love, love this bag!! You can't really see from the photos offered, but it has a zipper pocket on both front and back. Perfect satchel size, plenty of room. I will never purchase another brand. I've found The Sak customer service is unparalleled. I have total confidence in the quality, and endurance of this brand. (Not an employee) lol Recommendation: buy with confidence.
