The Tonawanda News
Tonawanda News — TOWN OF TONAWANDA — For a decade, the Clean Air Coalition tirelessly lobbied government agencies, tested the air and rallied on the streets. But Thursday, local activists got the chance to sit down, relax and reflect on what their work has achieved — victory against Tonawanda Coke.
The coalition held a spirited party at the River Road Volunteer Fire Hall Thursday night, less than a mile away from the coke-making plant. And although it was United States attorneys who recently secured a guilty verdict against the plant and its environmental manager, Mark Kamholz, it was the coalition that started the fight.
"One of the most exciting things about the trial was that this has only occurred twice in the history of the country," Rebecca Newberry, of the coalition, said as she welcomed the attendees. "When we said we were making history, we really, really, were."
According to prosecutors who handled the case, the 30-day federal trial was only the second Clean Air Act case in which a company was prosecuted under Title V of the law, which requires large industrial plants to control the pollutants they emit into the air. Activists are hoping the rare Tonawanda Coke trial — and their work — will send a message to other industrial polluters.
"Now, other plants are looking over their shoulders to take steps toward compliance, before we take a step to get closer to them," Ron Meegan, a member of the coalition said.
Locals started the fight against the plant in 2005, when the coalition was founded. They set out to prove that the polluted air was causing health problems for local residents, and their work quickly targeted Tonawanda Coke, a River Road coal-burning plant.
The coalition worked to get governmental agencies to correct the environmental wrongs at the plant. A series of developments over 10 years started to prove the activists right, and eventually, an Environmental Protection Agency investigation discovered that the plant was violating both the Clean Air Act and the Resource Recovery and Conservation Act.
The plant and Kamholz were tried for those crimes, and on March 28, a jury found both defendants guilty of 14 of the 19 counts in the indictment. Kamholz was additionally found guilty of obstruction of justice for attempting to interfere with an EPA inspection.
The plant now face $200 million in fines and Kamholz 75 years in prison. After years of grassroots work, the coalition hopes to keep that money in the community to assist those who are sick as a result of the plant's emissions.
"We want to show the government and the attorney general that we want the money to stay here, to help people who were hurt by the plant," Newberry said.
And although there was some talk of the organization's next steps Thursday, residents took the time to focus on what they have already achieved. Members wrote thank you cards to assistant U.S. attorneys Aaron Mango and Rocky Piaggione who prosecuted the case, as well as EPA officials. They ate cake, drank beer and sipped champagne.
Jennifer Ratajczak, who helped found the coalition, gave the evening's toast.
"It seemed impossible at times, but we did it. We canvassed, did bucket brigades, did photo stories and tested the air ... we did just about everything," she said. "As Walt Disney said, 'It's kind of fun to do the impossible.'" Contact reporter Jessica Bagley at 693-1000, ext. 4150

Pros – Customers were fun to interact with, Flexible hours, easy work.
Cons – Retail pay ~ 9.45 in WA
Advice to Senior Management – Overall a decent experience but not a great one, there was fairly quick turnover with some of the employees, and new management had to get rid of some of the older (not so great) employees. Some coworkers were horrible interacting with customers, but that is most likely a result of the retail environment.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Two men were arrested Wednesday after stealing an air conditioning unit from Clarksville Little Theatre and taking a responding police officer on a vehicle pursuit for several miles through Clarksville and New Albany, police reported.
Mark Smith, 39, of Pekin, and Edward Higgins, 43, of 1502 E. Elm St. in New Albany, were each arrested following the vehicle pursuit which ended on Spring Street in New Albany after the vehicle slid onto a curb and became stuck.
Dispatch advised Clarksville Police Department about 1 p.m. that a caller reported an air conditioner theft had just taken place from the community theater along East Montgomery Avenue.
The caller also relayed to dispatch operators that the suspects were in a red Chevrolet pickup truck traveling north on Randolph Avenue toward Brown's Station Way.
A Clarksville police officer saw the pickup truck turning onto Brown's Station Way, and when he attempted a traffic stop, the vehicle refused to pull over.
After activating the patrol car's sirens, the vehicle began to speed up to about 65 mph, police reported.
"I continued to follow the vehicle about 2.5 to 3 miles into New Albany, where the vehicle was cutting in and out of traffic in an attempt to get away from me," according to the police report.
The officer reported the vehicle then made a hard left turn into the Spring Street Dairy Queen and, "... struck about a two-foot curb, jumping the curb and knocking both passenger side tires off the rim."
The pickup truck continued through the Dairy Queen parking lot and turned left onto Spring Street where the vehicle slid into a curb and became stuck, police reported.
The officer then exited his patrol car and the pickup's two passengers, Higgins and a woman, "jumped out of the passenger side and laid on the ground."

Scrap metal dealers, pawnbrokers, jewelry store and secondhand store owners will have a new record-keeping requirements if the Madison Fiscal Court passes second reading of an ordinance heard Tuesday.
The ordinance is designed to cut down on the amount of stolen metal, jewelry and other items that are bought for resale or pawn.
"They are are taking things with no records," Clark said of some dealers. "What we've tried to do is wait until Richmond and Berea passed their (similar) ordinances and modeled our ordinance after theirs."
"No such purchase shall be made unless the seller shall present his or her driver's license or other government identification card," the ordinance reads.
Business owners will be required to keep records that include:
• The name, address, birth date, telephone number, ID card and ID card number; date and time of purchase/exchange of the item
• A detailed description of the article or articles purchased, including any manufacturer's name, ID number, serial number, model number, any identifying marks and a description sufficiently detailed to distinguish the specific article from other articles of a like kind
• The signature of the licensee and the seller, both executed at the time of the purchase
• A photocopy, or clear copy produced by a computer scanner of the seller's driver's license, state identification card or other government ID
• A digital photographer of the seller's face and a digital photograph of the item(s) purchased by the licensee (excluding textbooks).
The records will be retained for up to one year, and all affected business owners must make a daily report on or before 11 a.m. with Leads Online as to each transaction they did within the 24-hour period.
Leads Online is a resource being utilized throughout the country to help track sales and assist law enforcement.
"We help businesses, which are typically required by law to report their transactions to law enforcement, by making reporting easier and more efficient," according to information found at www.leadsonline.com. "From secondhand dealers, pawnshops and gold buyers to pharmacies and scrap metal dealers, we help each of them reduce the hassles of reporting."
"There are many cases being solved because of tips placed on Leads Online," said Madison County Attorney Marc Robbins.
Because both cities in Madison Count have enacted such an ordinance, more and more people are going out into county limits to try and sell stolen metals and merchandise, Robbins said.
"It's got so bad that people are stealing manhole covers off the road," said Magistrate Greg King.
In other business:
• Clark spent time during the meeting reflecting on Friday's deadly shooting Friday, leaving 20 Connecticut schoolchildren and seven adults dead.
"I can't imagine something like that happening here, but it could," Clark said. "You never know where it could happen. So, we send our prayers out to them."
• The court heard the first reading of an ordinance, that if passed upon a second reading, will put the task of issuing business licenses into the hands of the county's planning and development office.
"We used to issue our business licenses through our finance department, and it became more obvious that Duane (Curry, planning and development administrator) and his staff, they're out there every day and they have more staff," Clark said. "They can stop and find out if these different contractors and subcontractors have business licenses. It's just changing from the finance department to the planning and development. They can enforce it a lot more."
• Lori Tatum, director of tourism for the city of Richmond, presented the court with a Christmas gift because of the its financial support in some of the department's events. The gift was a large, framed photo of downtown Richmond at night, featuring the Madison County Courthouse.
• The court voted to hire Daniel Brindley of Berea to serve as an information technology specialist for Madison County CSEPP (Chemical Stockpile Emergency Preparedness Program). Brindley's salary, which is provided through federal funding, will be about $38,000 a year, according to Emergency Management Agency Director Carl Richards.
• Richards made the court aware of a mud slide that occurred after last week's heavy rain. The location, 2057 Tates Creek Road, has been the scene of previous slides. The road is owned by the state, and Sen. Jared Carpenter (R-Kentucky), who attended Tuesday's meeting, said he would take the issue to state highway department.
"At some point, it cold hurt someone," Richards said.
The next meeting of the fiscal court is scheduled for 9:30 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 8 at the Madison County Courthouse.

NEW YORK — Call it the Bernanke Boost.
The stock market, which has been marching higher for a week, got extra fuel Thursday after Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said the central bank will keep supporting the economy.
The Dow Jones industrial average and Standard & Poor's 500 surged to all-time highs. And the yield on the 10-year Treasury note continued to decline as investors bought bonds. Stocks that benefit most from a continuation of low interest rates, such as homebuilders, notched some of the biggest gains.
The chairman made the comments in a speech late Wednesday after U.S. markets had closed, saying the economy needs the Fed's easy-money policy "for the foreseeable future."
The U.S. economy needs help because unemployment is high, Bernanke said. His remarks seemed to ease investors' fears that the central bank will pull back on its economic stimulus too quickly. The Fed is currently buying $85 billion a month in bonds to keep interest rates low and to encourage spending and hiring.
Stock index futures rose overnight. Stocks surged when the market opened Thursday and stayed high for the rest of the day.
"The Fed has made it unequivocally clear that they are not in any hurry to do anything," said Alec Young, Global Equity Strategist at S&P Capital IQ. "It's very bullish for stocks."
The S&P 500 index jumped 22.40 points, or, 1.4 percent, to 1,675.02, surpassing its previous record close of 1,669 from May 21. The index rose for a sixth straight day, its longest streak in four months.
The Dow rose 169.26 points, or 1.1 percent, to 15,460.92, above its own all-time closing high of 15,409 set May 28.
The Nasdaq composite rose 57.55 points, or 1.4 percent, to 3,578.30, its highest level in nearly 13 years.
In government bond trading, the yield on the 10-year note fell to 2.57 percent from 2.63 percent Wednesday. The yield was as high as 2.74 percent Friday after the government reported strong hiring in June.

GCC for Embedded Engineers
These components perform only a small slice of the work necessary to produce an executable. The preprocessor, for languages that support such a concept, runs before the compiler proper, performing text transformations before the compiler transforms the input into machine code for the target. During the compilation process, the compiler performs optimizations as specified by the user and produces a parse tree. The parse tree is translated into assembler code, and the assembler uses that input to make an object file. If the user wants to produce an executable binary, the object file is then passed to the linker to produce an executable.
After looking at all the components in a toolchain, the following section steps through the process GCC takes when compiling C source files into a binary. The process starts by invoking GCC with the files to be compiled and a parameter specifying output to be stored to thebinary:
armv5l-linux-gcc file1.c file2.c -o thebinary
GCC is actually a driver program that invokes the underlying compiler and binutils to produce the final executable. By looking at the extension of the input file and using the rules built in to the compiler, GCC determines what programs to run in what order to build the output. To see what happens in order to compile the file, add the -### parameter:
armv5l-linux-gcc -### file1.c file2.c -o thebinary
This produces virtual reams of output on the console. Much of the output has been clipped, saving untold virtual trees, to make it more readable for this example. The first information that appears describes the version of the compiler and how it was built—very important information when queried "was GCC built with thumb-interworking disabled?"
Target: armv5l-linux Configured with: <the contents of a autoconf command line> Thread model: posix gcc version 4.1.0 20060304 (TimeSys 4.1.0-3)
After outputting the state of the tool, the compilation process starts. Each source file is compiled with the cc1 compiler, the "real" compiler for the target architecture. When GCC was compiled, it was configured to pass certain parameters to cc1:
"/opt/timesys/toolchains/armv5l-linux/libexec/gcc/ ↪armv5l-linux/4.1.0/cc1.exe" "-quiet" "file1.c" ↪"-quiet" "-dumpbase" "file1.c" "-mcpu=xscale" ↪"-mfloat-abi=soft" "-auxbase" "file1" "-o" ↪"/cygdrive/c/DOCUME~1/GENESA~1.TIM/LOCALS~1/Temp/ccC39DVR.s"
Now the assembler takes over and turns the file into object code:
"/opt/timesys/toolchains/armv5l-linux/lib/gcc/ ↪armv5l-linux/4.1.0/../../../../armv5l-linux/bin/as.exe" ↪"-mcpu=xscale" "-mfloat-abi=soft" "-o" ↪"/cygdrive/c/DOCUME~1/GENESA~1.TIM/LOCALS~1/Temp/ccm4aB3B.o" ↪"/cygdrive/c/DOCUME~1/GENESA~1.TIM/LOCALS~1/Temp/ccC39DVR.s"
The same thing happens for the next file on the command line, file2.c. The command lines are the same as those for file1.c, but with different input and output filenames.
After compilation, collect2 performs a linking step and looks for initialization functions (called constructor functions, but not in the object-oriented sense) called before the "main" section of the program. collect2 gathers these functions together, creates a temporary source file, compiles it and links that to the rest of the program:
"/opt/timesys/toolchains/armv5l-linux/libexec/gcc/ ↪armv5l-linux/4.1.0/collect2.exe" "--eh-frame-hdr" ↪"-dynamic-linker" "/lib/ld-linux.so.2" "-X" "-m" ↪"armelf_linux" "-p" "-o" "binary" "/opt/timesys/ ↪toolchains/armv5l-linux/lib/gcc/armv5l-linux/ ↪4.1.0/../../../../armv5l-linux/lib/crt1.o" ↪"/opt/timesys/toolchains/armv5l-linux/lib/gcc/ ↪armv5l-linux/4.1.0/../../../../armv5l-linux/lib/crti.o" ↪"/opt/timesys/toolchains/armv5l-linux/lib/gcc/ ↪armv5l-linux/4.1.0/crtbegin.o" ↪"-L/opt/timesys/toolchains/armv5l-linux/lib/ ↪gcc/armv5l-linux/4.1.0" "-L/opt/timesys/ ↪toolchains/armv5l-linux/lib/gcc/armv5l-linux/ ↪4.1.0/../../../../armv5l-linux/lib" ↪"/cygdrive/c/DOCUME~1/GENESA~1.TIM/LOCALS~1/ ↪Temp/ccm4aB3B.o" "/cygdrive/c/DOCUME~1/ ↪GENESA~1.TIM/LOCALS~1/Temp/cc60Td3s.o" ↪"-lgcc" "--as-needed" "-lgcc_s" "--no-as-needed" ↪"-lc" "-lgcc" "--as-needed" "-lgcc_s" "--no-as-needed" ↪"/opt/timesys/toolchains/armv5l-linux/lib/ ↪gcc/armv5l-linux/4.1.0/crtend.o" "/opt/timesys/ ↪toolchains/armv5l-linux/lib/gcc/armv5l-linux/ ↪4.1.0/../../../../armv5l-linux/lib/crtn.o"
There are some other nifty things in here that warrant pointing out:
1. Here's the option that specifies the dynamic linker to invoke when running the program on the target platform:
"-dynamic-linker" "/lib/ld-linux.so.2"
On Linux platforms, dynamically linked programs actually load by running a dynamic loader, making themselves a parameter of the linker, which does the work of loading the libraries into memory and fixing up the references. If this program isn't in the same place on the target machine, the program will fail to run with an "unable to execute program" error message. A misplaced linker on the target ensnares every embedded developer at least once.
2. These files contain the code before the programmer's entry point (typically main, but you can change that too) and handle things like initialization of globals, opening the standard file handles, making that nice array of parameters and other housekeeping functions:
3. Likewise, these files contain the code after the last return, such as closing files and other housekeeping work. Like the prior items, these are cross-compiled during the GCC build:
And, that's it! At the end of this process, the output is a program ready for execution on the target platform.

Thanks for an excellent article on a subject affect many embedded engineers.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Workforce Forward forum to feature manufacturing trendsetters panel
- Last Updated on 01:19 PM 07/15/12
- BY Special to the Gazette
The Southern Virginia Higher Education Center will be hosting the Workforce Forward 2012 forum on Sept. 20 at The Prizery in South Boston. The theme of the forum is "Virginia Manufacturing: Back to the Future?"
This event will contain three facilitated panel discussions that will cover three topics: manufacturing trendsetters, emerging manufacturing opportunities and educational trendsetters.
The panelists of the manufacturing trendsetters panel are manufacturing practitioners who, in spite of national and regional economic challenges, are leading manufacturing organizations that are not just surviving but thriving in their respective market segments, according to Dr. Nettie Simon-Owens, SVHEC director of Workforce Services.
These panelists include Angela Lewis, president of Lindstrand, USA, Ken Morgan, chairman of Morgan Lumber Company, Inc., and Rita Cox, president of Presto Products Company.
Leigh Cockram, director of the Southern Virginia Regional Alliance, will facilitate the panel discussion.
By raising awareness of the reemerging manufacturing sector and spotlighting the new educational approaches required to bridge the manufacturing workforce skills gap, Workforce Forward 2012 forum seeks to help Southern Virginia position itself to capitalize on these opportunities. With a panel that has people from different positions and experience, the Workforce Forward 2012 forum will provide an enriching experience for those in attendance.
Panelist Lewis, president of Lindstrand, USA, Inc., headquartered in South Boston, has extensive experience with airships, aerostats and lighter-than-air industries. She has been an integral part of the Lindstrand Group for almost 30 years.
The company's mission is "to bring a breath of fresh air to the design and manufacture of lighter-than-air vehicles using new technologies," Lewis said.
Under Lewis' leadership, Lindstrand is a 2011 recipient of the Tayloe Murphy Resilience Award for the manufacturing and wholesale sector. Lindstrand is currently working closely with government departments to develop a new range of these dirigibles that will be deployed in countries such as Afghanistan.
Ken Morgan, another manufacturing trendsetters panelist, is chairman of the board of Morgan Lumber, Inc.
Morgan Lumber is located in Red Oak and is a manufacturer of southern yellow pine. He has served as the past president of the board of directors of Halifax Regional Health System and presently, serves as a member of the board. Morgan is also the past chairman of the board of Virginia Forest Products Association and past president of the board of the Virginia Forestry Association. Morgan Lumber is a 2010 recipient of the Tayloe Murphy Resilience Award.
Rita Cox is the president of Presto Products, Inc. headquartered in Appleton, Wisconsin. Presto Products is a division of Reynolds Packaging Company. Presto Products' South Boston facility is included in her responsibilities. Before obtaining her current position, she was vice president of manufacturing and was highly instrumental in implementing lean manufacturing principles to establish a competitive advantage.
Panel facilitator Leigh Cockram, director of the Southern Virginia Regional Alliance, lives in Collinsville. The Southern Virginia Regional Alliance is the state's newest regional economic development organization and is a marketing partnership between Halifax, Henry, Patrick and Pittsylvania counties and the cities of Martinsville and Danville. Cockram's responsibilities include developing marketing materials, such as brochures and print mail items; establishing the office; promoting the region through traveling, hosting consultants and other efforts; and other things geared to creating jobs.
The Workforce Forward 2012 forum is sponsored by American National Bank, Mid-Atlantic Broadband Cooperative, American Wood Finishing Institute (AWFI) located at Riverstone Technology Park, First Piedmont/Davenport Energy and the Virginia Tobacco Indemnification and Revitalization Commission.
For more information on all of the panelists, go to http://www.svhec.org/index.php/speakers or contact Dr. Nettie Simon-Owens, SVHEC director of Workforce Services, at 434-572-5477. The early bird registration rate of $40 per person ends Aug. 31.
"This is "a don't miss" event that will greatly impact Southern Virginia so make sure to sign up today," Simon-Owens said.

Fuzzy Logic Toolbox
You can evaluate FIS performance by using the Fuzzy Logic Controller block in a Simulink model of your system. The Fuzzy Logic Controller block automatically generates a hierarchical block diagram representation for most fuzzy inference systems. This representation uses only built-in Simulink blocks, enabling efficient code generation (using Simulink Coder, available separately).
You can also save your FIS in ASCII format for use outside the MATLAB environment. The toolbox supplies a fuzzy inference engine that can execute your fuzzy system as a stand-alone application or embedded in an external application.

President Obama will be in upstate New York today touring a General Electric factory and showcasing that company's successes. Mr. Obama just named GE's chief executive the head of a new panel on jobs and competitiveness. GE boss Jeff Immelt has been speaking about the need to focus on manufacturing and increase the country's exports.
Here's NPR's Chris Arnold.
While the housing sector's troubles continue to drag down the U.S. economy, manufacturing is doing well, largely because of strong sales overseas.
The exports boom has helped the manufacturing sector grow at a pace three times faster than the rest of the economy. According to federal data released last week, exports rose for the third straight month in November to nearly $160 billion.
Overseas customers are buying more U.S. airplanes, pharmaceuticals, foods, industrial supplies, cotton, computers and more.
