The options on the Referendum ballot on our membership of the EU to
a) In
b) Out
c) Shake it all about
Big thanks to Jim for this one….
Now that all the recent By-election and County Council elections are over, and grunting and groaning between the so-called major parties – You will be pleased to know that we still have three Councillors:
Howling 'Laud' Hope in the Fleet Town Council.
Mad Mike Young on the Isle of Sheppey Council.
Nick the'Flying Brick' in the Kirk Ireton Parish Council!
Its official, the Fleet Town Council, which has Our Leader as a member, is to name a road after him. 'Hope Walk' is well under construction and should be completed within the next four months. Champagne party on the opening day? Why not!?!
He has been suggesting for some time that Fleet needs a top budget price hotel and one is now under construction. 'Premier Inn' will be opening shortly opposite the 'Links' where we have previously held party conferences. It seems quite fitting that 'Hope Walk' is next door.
Our Illustrious Leader will be in the West Country from Thurs 27th of June to Sun the 7th of July. He has been invited back to Ashburton to officiate in the Towns Carnival week where he will open the Carnival Fete on Sat 29th June as guest of honour. He will visit various events thoughout the week, take part in the Carnival parade, and be part of the judging committee on Saturday the 6th of July.
He feels honoured to be involved as this is the place where 'The Official Monster Raving Loony Party' first got off of the ground at the 'Golden Lion Hotel. It is also the place where the Loony Party had their greatest political success when Howling Laud became a Town Councillor for 13 years, Town Mayor, Chairman of the Council and a Lord of the Borough!
Asburton is a lovely place, if you live near, or are down that way during this period, you will be more than welcome to come and join in, but make sure that your in the right mood for a laugh.
Howling will also be the guest of honour in his own local town of Fleet in Hampshire at the annual Fleet Dog Show at Calthorpe Park on Saturday 27th July. 'Bark in the Park' has been going a couple of years now and is gaining in popularity each time. This is quite fitting, as it was the Loony Party led by Lord Sutch that was instrumental in getting the 'Passport for Pets' law on the statute books! Once again all are welcome, if your bringing your Boxers make sure they leave their gloves at home!
Our Leader & Harriet Harman in South Shields
So soon after the 'Eastleigh' By-election in February, came another in 'South Shields' in May. Barely had time to put the white suit away, and it was out on the road again, for us valiant Loonies Nick 'The Flying Brick' was well and truly on form again, travelling from Derby up to the 'North East' to collect the ten names we need to stand, and did it almost in record time he says. With all the preliminarys taken care of, and a party HQ sorted at 'The Douglas Vaults Hotel' the main thrust of our invasion began on Wed 24th April, our leader 'Howling Laud Hope' was on hand to appear on TV, Radio and all other media factions, as and when they happened. Nine days of 'Geordie' hospitality, what a wonderful bunch of people, but then I should have known, my own parents were from up that way. So a bit rubs of on me I suppose.
Nevertheless all the usual rigmarole, fun and games, went as planned, or unplanned, I suppose is a better way of putting it, you never know who your going to meet, or in most cases 'what will happen next'.
Lord Toby Jug and Lady Jezebel Luxury-Yacht arrived three days before the count and added fire to the campaign, although both Toby and I were also standing in our own constuencies for our respective County Councils on the same day. (catch up with that in other reports). We met up once again with one of our admirers 'Nigel Farrage' always good to see him,and always has a laugh and a joke, and goes out of his way to tell people of the things that we have achieved since our inauguration. We also had a 'run in' with Miss Harriet Ha Ha Harman, the Labour Party Deputy Leader, well running in the same High Street that is, we certainly made ouselves known, outshouting her entourage to the delight of some of the locals. She took it quite well, or tried to make out that she did with a smile on her face, but underneath you could hear her crying 'Go away, Leave us alone'. Well we did, but not before she knew that we were there!
Thurs 2nd May Polling Day, now arrives Mr R.U.Seerius and Lady Hell 'n' Back along with our intrepid 'Flying Brick' and also 'Cardinal' Maximus Bobetsky, all ready and up for the count. The count night always has an auspicious air about it, and this one was of no let down, we came, we saw, we went away with 194 votes.
Maybe the loudest cheer when results were read out,and congratulations all round.
Trouble was — Ukip stole all our votes, but we shall steal 'em back!
Even so with their sudden upsurge we still managed a nice number of votes, more than some other By-elections. Who is losing them, ask yourselves!
Still a very low turn-out, just over 25%, do you know, it's quite obvious that the biggest Political Party isn't any party that we have ever heard of, its the Non-Voting Party.
If all of those voted for us, we would win, the amout of people who said "I dont vote cause I dont trust 'em" was incredible. We in the Loony Party have a new catch phrase ** If you dont usually vote, then vote unusually, VOTE LOONY**
I would like to thank Stuart and his staff in 'The Vaults' for their hospitality, Paul Kelly of the South Shields Gazette for his friendliness and coverage, all the people who voted for us, and all those who didn't, just for being there. Thankyou all!
Watch out for future dates —- Portsmouth South and Clitheroe maybe!!!!!

Rumour on the street is that the loony party may get more votes than the Lib Dems. Impossible…. no…we did it with the SDP.. do your remember them?
If we do the credibilty of the coalition will be at stake and may cause the downfall of the Ruling 2 parties..
Dont bother voting UKIP or any one else..they don't have the Kudos of being beaten by the Loony Party
So tell all your friends in South Shields to get out there and Vote ..Official Monster Raving Loony Party…
In Thursday's county council elections, most candidates will be hoping for a few hundred votes but one man from Ilkeston will be happy with just two.
And one of them will be his own ballot paper.
He is Whopping Lord Foghole and seeks election to Derbyshire County Council on a Monster Raving Loony Party ticket, in the Ilkeston East division.
Asked what reaction he is getting on the campaign trail he said: "None, I'm disabled. I'm just going down the pub, giving out flyers and hoping the message is passed on."
Despite taking his name from a competitor in a farting – or crapitation – contest on a Canadian radio comedy in the 1940s, he has some surprisingly sensible ideas.
Lord Foghole, or Jonathan Daniel as he is more commonly known, would like to see money generated in Ilkeston stay in Ilkeston, rather than back to the neighbouring cities of Derby and Nottingham.
He wants better investment in local infrastructure, grants to flagging businesses and is keen to introduce an Ilkeston-only currency, similar to the Lewes Pound and the Bristol Pound.
And he candidly admits he cannot do anything about immigration or the EU because that's a government issue.
But, naturally, everything he offers is tinged with his own brand of comedy.
For example, traffic wardens will be renamed valets and will help people park their cars rather than issuing tickets and the mayor will be called Wee Wee Willy Winky.
Of course he knows he stands no chance of winning, but Lord Foghole said he would be interested to find out how much he spent per vote gained compared to the winning candidate.
According to Erewash Borough Council, it is up to the returning officer to decide if a name is acceptable.
It has to be one that is commonly used by the individual and not seen to be maliciously misleading.
In this case, Mr Daniel is known as Whopping Lord Foghole by the Monster Raving Loony Party.
"I've not had to put down a deposit, so it's not cost much. Maybe a bit of printing and some shoe leather – and not much of that because I can't walk far," he said.
"At the end of the day I'm doing something a bit different and a bit of fun. I'm looking forward to it."
There are four other candidates vying for votes in the Ilkeston East division.
Rachel Allen, Lib Dem, said: "The fact that anyone feels they can stand on whatever ticket is good for democracy. It means people are taking an interest in politics.
"Having someone from the Monster Raving Loony Party stops the main political parties taking themselves too seriously and it adds a bit of colour to the event."
• The Tories denounce Ukip as closet racists, and my experience at byelections and local elections and of meeting many of their grassroots supporters bears this out. Most Ukip members and supporters are nothing but opportunists, seeking a populist platform for their extremist views. As the official party of protest, we Official Monster Raving Loonies strongly object to use of the terms "fruitcakes" and "loonies" when describing Ukip (Tories in disarray over response to Ukip 'clowns', 29 April). We who seek the holy grail of Loonyism strongly object to the cavalier use of these terms. In our long-held view, all politicians from all the unofficial loony parties are far too loony even for us Official Loonies, so on Thursday, both in South Shields and in the county council elections, don't vote Conservative, Labour, Liberal, Ukip or for any other pretenders, vote for the real Official Raving Loony party of the UK. As our late founder Screaming Lord Sutch said: "Vote for insanity … you know it makes sense."
Lord Toby Jug
Leader, The Official Monster Raving Loony party, Eastern Region
As is tradition, the Official Monster Raving Loony Party will be holding their Victory Party in their Elmbridge HQ, The Poyntz Arms, 85 Walton Road, East Molesey, the evening before the loony landslide takers place on Wednesday 1st May from 8pm
Performing for your entertainment will be MOJO CREW, JOE JAMMER as well as a few other special guests who turn up on the night. The wearing of a hat is strongly encouraged!
Don't be confused by the other non official loonies standing at this years election, VOTE CRAZY CRAB, CHIUNNERS, CRAZY DAVE or MONKEY for Surrey!
Shadow Minister of Spinning & Bouncing

AF keyboard HW reinitialization: aftertouch, pitch wheel, sliders messed up
September 17, 2012, 04:20:15 pm »
Hi everybody.
I need to hardware re-initialize the Arturia 32 keys keyboard because it no longer sends "Aftertouch/Channel Pressure message" and also the Pitch wheel and siders need reset/recalibration.
In facts at the beginning, I could use and appreciate the aftertouch effect with Garageband instruments and also the accuracy of the Pitch Wheel.
I also used a MIDI Message Screening program (Midi Monitor 1.2.4 by Snooze Production) to monitor midi messages and verified the presence Aftertouch Channel Pressure message (between 0 and 127) and the Pitch Wheel messages (between -8192 and 8191).
Then I wanted to re-calibrate the aftertouch effect as explained on page 45 of the manual, but I could not complete the described procedure because I experienced a different behavior of the keyboard leds.
I pressed both Level Knob push button & Shift button and powered on the keyboard: after releasing the two buttons, I got only 2 led active, just the Shift Button led and Shapshot #3 Button led (and not a row of active leds as described on the manual).
Now, pressing a key did not make any led to "show" the force used (again a different behavior in respect of what described on the manual).
So I started to make some experiments and pushing here and there, I found out the following:
Moving the Pitch Wheel made the Snapshot #3 Button led to switch off and the Snapshot #1 Button to switch on.
Moving Mod Wheel turned on the Snapshot Button #2 and off the #1.
Pressing a key (white or black) with some force, made Snapshot Button #3 to turn on again.
Moving the Envelope Sliders made Snapshot Buttons #5,6,7, and 8 to turn on (only one at a time).
I could also make Snapshot Button #4 to switch on when I used an expression pedal.
The Shift Button Led remained always switched on.
So I realized that the Snapshot Button active led was representing which control was selected (so to select a control you just needed to move it and check if the corresponding led got active).
Unfortunately after some tries, I could not figure out how to proceed and calibrate the selected control: the only working button seemed to be the Level Knob push button, used to exit this hardware setup mode.
The problem is that now the keyboard seems to have lost the ability to send Aftertouch message: and also the Pitch Wheel shows issues (it only works in "increasing pitch" direction when I use it with a DAW).
Finally, only sliders 3 and 4 works: moving sliders 1 and 2 seem to have no effect.
I used again my Midi Monitor to screen midi messages and verified the presence of an Aftertouch Channel Pressure message but always with a Pressure Value of 0.
Also the Pitch Wheel shows a "bias" because its range is no longer between -8192 and 8191, but only between 47 and 8191 (and now the transition between the values is a jump, and not as smooth as in the beginning).
Slides 1 and 2 shows no messages.
Of course I used Arturia Midi Control Center and pressed both "default values" and "send to keyboard" buttons to reset the keyboard, but this did not fixed the problem.
So how I need to re-initialise the keyboard: on the manual - aftertouch page - it is stated that the non-volatile memory used to store personal calibration can be reset thru "reinitialization", but I could not find on the manual how to perform it.
I also need of the correct procedure to calibrate the potentiometers (on Arturia knowledge base I found a procedure to do it for The Laboratory Keyboards, but it is not suitable for my 32 keys keyboard).
Any suggestion really appreciated: few days ago I submitted my case to Arturia tech-dep. thru my account page with the official online form, but I got no reply so far.
Thank you in advance and best regards.

The good news is that Arturia replied and I was able to reset the KEYBOARD to factory setting with the following steps:
1) Connect the keyboard to a USB port and check you can swich on the keyboard (I mean the USB port must provide sufficient power supply to switch on the keyboard leds)
2) Swich off the keyboard
3) Press '+' and '-' together
4) Keep them pressed, swich on the keyboard and wait a moment: you should see some led blinking for few seconds
5) When the blinking ends, release '+' and '-' and you are done.
Sometimes you need to do disconnect the keyboard from the USB port and do the procedure again from step 1 to step 5, but I've always been successful in resetting the keyboard this way.
The bad news is that I gave up understanding how to set custom setting to the potentiometer of whatever type (aftertouch, pitch wheel, sliders, etc.)
As per my post, the aftertouch custom setting procedure on the manual seems not working the way described and the keyboard behaviuor is not as expected (or I'm doing something wrong I can not understand).
Unfortunately, I can not get any update from Arturia about this issue.
If you solve it, please let me know.

A Wadesboro Community Blood Drive held at First Baptist Church on Sept. 20 was "very successful," according to Lewis Evans, community service chairman of the Wadesboro Rotary Club, which sponsored the event.
Of the 52 people who signed up, a total of 43 were acceptable donors; of these, four were first-time givers, Evans said. Halfway through the drive more than 30 people had been signed in. "It's more than we normally [have] by this time," he said.
Neither Evans nor Cesar Kalombo, a Red Cross BCO at the event, were surprised that the majority of the donors were repeat donors. "Most people are here donating because they always have," said Evans. Repeat givers included Angela Sturdivant, who said she comes out every time and looks forward to coming back.
John Watson, another donor, was pleased with the turnout; by his estimate, the events normally draw 30-35 people but not quite halfway through the event at 3 p.m. he was donor number 27 and anticipated more. Like Sturdivant, Watson is a repeat donor. "They do it every two months, so six times a year," he said. "I probably go five times a year, and I've been doing it for 10 years."
Rotary Club president Carly Little also donated. Like most of the others, she was a repeat donor, as well. Although she's only been Rotary Club president since July, Lewis praised her efforts so far. "She's a very sweet girl, she does a good job," Lewis said.
Lewis also credits Hugh Wallace for the higher turnout. When a phone-calling committee was needed, Wallace organized it and personally called at least 25 of the over 100 people on the list, according to Wallace and Lewis. "We called over 100 but many are out of town, on vacation, or couldn't get off work in time to be here," Wallace said. While Lewis agreed, he still believed that Wallace's phone-calling resulted in the higher numbers. "You can tell it worked because of the early influx," he said.
The donors at this drive and others help recipients of the blood through the Red Cross, which supplies products to about 3,000 hospitals nationwide, according to a Red Cross publication. Approximately every two seconds, someone in America needs blood; while 38 percent of the population are eligible donors, only a fraction of them actually do, according to the publication. People interested in donating should meet the eligibility requirements that include being at least 17 (16 with parental permission in some states), weigh at least 110 pounds, and are generally in good health. High school students and other donors 18 and younger have certain height and weight standards they must reach, as well, according to the publication.
To find out more about donating or the Red Cross, call 1-800-733-2767 or visit redcrossblood.org.

Macomb County Prosecutor Eric Smith is challenging the potential prison release of a man convicted of sexually assaulting three young girls in Macomb and St. Clair counties more than a decade ago.
Mark A. Liske, 47, was scheduled to be released last Nov. 1, but it was stayed because Judge David Viviano granted Smith permission to file an appeal. Oral arguments are scheduled for Feb. 4 in front of Viviano in Macomb County Circuit court in Mount Clemens.
Even though Liske has served his minimum terms, Smith pointed out he has nine felony convictions, seven of them sexually related, tried to escape from jail and possessed razor blades in prison.
"As long as he remains a risk to the public, my office will continue to fight his release into society," Smith said in the release.
Liske was sentenced in 2001 to 10 to 40 years in prison for first-degree criminal sexual conduct and five to 15 years for second-degree sexual conduct by Macomb Judge James Biernat Sr. for incidents involving a 12-year-old girl in July 1998, according to Smith and records. He was convicted following a trial at which Smith personally prosecuted the case as part of the Sex Crimes unit.
The year before that, Liske was sentenced to three 5- to 15-year terms for second-degree criminal conduct for a July 1999 incident in St. Clair County involving the victim in the Macomb case and another 12-year-old girl, Smith and records say. He also was sentenced at that time to two 2-4 year terms for escaping from jail or assaulting a jail employee, and escaping while awaiting trial in the St. Clair case.
He also was convicted in 2000 of fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct for behavior with a 9-year-old girl in 1995.
After his first conviction, Liske stalked the victim, absconded from supervision and failed to submit to sex-offender counseling, Smith said.
He also has an indecent exposure conviction in Florida, he said.
His earliest release date was February 2009. The state Parole Board says it continued his imprisonment through 2010 because he remained a risk to the public, according to Smith. Continued...
The board on Sept. 28 issued a notice of parole for the Nov. 1 release.
Smith in 2010 created the Parole Appeals unit and heightened his challenge of Parole Board releases due to what he said was an increase in the prior couple of years. The unit is headed by assistant Macomb prosecutor Mary Jo Diegel.
Liske will be represented by the state Attorney General.

This is a combination of stop-motion puppet and drawn animation. We observe a forlorn woman on a Halifax dock, whose loneliness is lifted by the passing of a fishing trawler. A metaphor on the connectiveness of water and water's capacity as a medium of freedom. This film was produced as part of our Hothouse emerging filmmaker's program

The Fashion
Remember when polka dots were only something that your great-aunt Ida would wear on holidays and special events? Well, no more. Polka dots are cooler than ever and a major trend for Spring. Seen on the red carpet, your super stylish friends and on retail racks everywhere, polka dots can look quite posh and modern when styled correctly. Which is why I love Target's selection of this super stylish pick.
What is it about Paris that make most women swoon? Is it the men, food or fashion? Probably a combination of all. Having personally attended Paris Fashion Week last season, I can tell you that this fashion week is the best of all. I'm not sure if it's the city, or the exquisite mural of fashion that
Lace may remind you of racy lingerie, but as witnessed on the Spring 2013 runways last September, it's actually a totally wearable daytime option. While I don't wear clothes straight off the runway—I wish—I do use inspiration from the shows in NYC and Paris when I refresh my wardrobe each season.

Spectacles worn by Beatrice Bush
These spectacles document the working life and conditions of a newspaper seller in Sydney between 1971 and 1996. Their significance comes from their association with paper seller and local White Bay celebrity Beatrice Bush.
For 25 years until 1996 Beatrice Bush sold newspapers seven days a week from the traffic island at the intersection of Victoria Road and The Crescent, White Bay, Sydney. Her weather-beaten face, small stature and eccentric attire were known to the estimated 70,000 vehicles which passed daily. Her resilience and endurance to constant traffic, petrol fumes and extremes of weather endeared her to locals and passers-by. Beatrice's long association with the area and support for local rugby league team the Balmain Tigers, evidenced by her trademark Tigers football socks, contributed to her status as a local celebrity. For many locals she symbolised old-style, working-class Balmain where struggle and hardship were offset by village life, community and family. Beatrice's life inspired songwriters, filmmakers, sculptors and painters (see object file).
This acquisition documents the practices of a Sydney newspaper street vendor just prior to the demise of this tradition. Until the late 1990s the daily metropolitan newspapers relied on a combination of newsagents, sub-agents operating from milk bars, convenience stores and small shops, and street vendors to sell their papers. Many of the street vendors were older people who contributed to the vibrancy of the inner city and provided a personal service to their daily customers. The vendors often worked up to 15 hours a day and many of them had held the same spot for 20 or 30 years. Like Beatrice they were used to working hard and needed the extra money to survive.
Many older sellers lost their jobs as councils upgraded facilities for the Sydney 2000 Olympics. Permanent newspapers kiosks were installed at prime city locations to replace vendors' milk crates and trolleys. Today newspaper sellers lease kiosks from the local council and have contracts with the major newspapers. Council regulations were also introduced at this time to restrict the sale of goods at traffic lights, thereby preventing the sale of papers at Beatrice's old site. These changes have largely destroyed the practice of old-style street selling that was once common to Sydney's inner-city streets. A number of independent publications like "Green Left Weekly" and "The Big Issue" are still traded on the streets by authorised vendors.
These spectacles were worn by Beatrice in her later years. Beatrice is often shown wearing them in recent newspaper photographs dating from the early 1990s. Glen and Phillip Bush donated them to the Museum.

At a glance: Advertising Design
"A heart, a generous caring, loving heart … that is what I think of when I think of Ohio Northern University. Back in the late '60s, when I was a student, I realized that the art and design department cared about each and every student … and they still do. The faculty always went the extra mile to help us succeed. When I was invited back to visit in 2000, I quickly realized that ONU's heart is still alive and well and ticking away – not only in the A&D department but in all the other aspects of the University. I have very fond memories that have continued to inspire me and continue to make the art and design department at ONU special for me."
Marilyn Lysohir, BA '72 (art)

"I'm pleased with the positive response we received from residents," said Oakley Police Chief Bani Kollo. "I think it speaks for the need to continue to offer convenient drug disposal opportunities. Be assured we'll continue to offer additional opportunities as they're made available to us."
Drug Take-back Day is an opportunity for residents to purge their homes of unwanted or expired prescription drugs. Residents were allowed to drop off prescription drugs anonymously – no questions asked.
The event was made possible by the passage in Congress of the Secure and Responsible Drug Disposal Act, which amended the Controlled Substance Act in 2010. The amendment allows an "ultimate user" of controlled substance medications to dispose of them by delivering them to entities authorized by the attorney general to accept them.
While regulations for implementation of the act are still being drafted, the Drug Enforcement Administration plans to continue collaborating with local law enforcement agencies to host drug take-back events every few months.

Texas' Petrochemical Boom Fuels Hopes and Concerns
By: Kate Galbraith, The Texas Tribune
Updated: July 17, 2012
FREEPORT -- The largest chemical complex in the Western Hemisphere resembles a city of pipes and stacks. And Dow Chemical, its owner, is spending more than $4 billion to make it even larger.
"In terms of dollars, this is the biggest expansion since we built the place," said Earl Shipp, vice president for Dow's Texas operations, who works out of the vast Freeport facility that dates to 1940.
More Texas chemical plants -- a dozen, at least -- are also moving forward with new projects. The hydraulic fracturing technology that sparked a drilling frenzy around Texas and the nation has proved a boon for the petrochemical industry, which is converting cheap and abundant natural gas into resins and polymers that go into items like synthetic clothing and cellphones. Experts say this represents the largest petrochemical expansion in Texas since the days of cheap oil in the 1980s.
But the growth comes amid concerns about future shortages of water and electric power statewide, as well as worries about the industry's impact on air pollution in the Houston area.
Although the cheap natural gas presents an "enormous opportunity" for the petrochemical industry, "we want to be sure that as all of this activity takes off, it's not creating a lot of bads" like water scarcity or air pollution, said Kenneth B. Medlock III, the deputy director of the Energy Forum at Rice University's James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy.
Texas already includes the country's largest concentration of petrochemical plants, with more than 200 manufacturing facilities, according to the Texas Chemical Council. The industry started in the decades after Texas' first big oil discovery in 1901, and growth accelerated during World War II, when the Allies sought synthetic rubber and material for explosives.
Modern plants use mostly natural gas, rather than oil, to make the chemicals. Whereas power plants run on methane, a component of natural gas, chemical plants use other, hotter-burning components -- ethane, propane and butane.
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality says that eight petrochemical plant operators have applied for air permits within the past 16 months. These include big names like Exxon Mobil (which plans expanded facilities at Baytown and Mont Belvieu), Chevron and Occidental.
A few plants, including Exxon, have filed for two permits. Some plants are not even on the list; they may not need new air permits or may not have yet filed for them. (Dow, which is not on the list, is completing the applications for its recently announced facility in Freeport that will convert ethane to ethylene, a product whose ultimate uses include plastic bags and medical tubing.)
Not all the facilities planned may be fully built, said Hector Rivero, the president of the Texas Chemical Council. Conditions can change. For example, chemical companies are watching the fiscal turmoil in Europe, a major manufacturing hub, Rivero said. Dramatically tighter regulation of hydraulic fracturing, or a surge in natural-gas vehicles that drives up demand and prices for the fuel, could also affect petrochemical operations.
Nonetheless, it is a remarkable turnaround for an industry that was in the doldrums just four years ago, as natural gas prices soared to $13 per million British thermal units and China strengthened its manufacturing advantage. Gas prices are now less than $3. That allows Texas to compete because natural gas and energy account for more than half of a plant's operating cost, according to Rivero.
"The mood is much better. You see a lot of smiling faces out there," said Chris Witte, the site manager for another expanding Freeport plant that is adjacent to Dow's and owned by BASF. The chemical industry, he added, has fought hard not to "go the way of the steel industry."
Texas is also fighting to stay ahead of a competitor state along the Gulf. "People may say, 'Well, Texas is getting the big ones,'" said Dan Borne, president of the Louisiana Chemical Association. "Well, I can tell you this much -- we're getting some substantial ones, too."
Often, the plants can take advantage of local incentives to expand, like tax abatements. Some plant operators have applied to the Texas Enterprise Fund, which provides money for job-creating projects. Dow, for example, received a $1 million grant from the fund in April, and Kuraray America, a chemical company expanding in Harris County, is getting nearly that much.
Rivero estimates that the expansions already announced total $15 billion in investment and will create about 20,000 jobs. Most will be in construction, but about a quarter will be permanent, he said. Dow anticipates 4,500 construction jobs in the coming years, with 300 permanent jobs resulting from the expansion. In Brazoria County, which includes Freeport, unemployment stands at 7 percent, and residents are hoping to benefit.
"They're excited -- 'Oh my gosh I'm going to have a job,'" said Mayor Norma Garcia of Freeport.
Chemical companies say they are eager to ensure that enough skilled workers are available to fuel the boom -- like pipe fitters, welders and electricians. Witte of BASF said that about 40 percent of workers at his plant were eligible to retire over the next five years.
"We were looking at a significant concern from a personnel standpoint anyways," he said. BASF has provided money to a program to train skilled workers at Brazosport College in Lake Jackson.
But the expansions come at a time when Texas is facing critical questions about the availability of water and power. The crippling drought, which has abated but not ended, forced a Formosa Plastics facility along the coast in Point Comfort to temporarily adjust to receiving as much as 20 percent less water from a nearby lake as its level receded. Chemical plants need vast amounts of water for cooling and cleaning.
Shipp of Dow said that intensive new conservation efforts resulted in water-use cutbacks of 10 percent last year at existing facilities, and that the savings should ensure there is enough water for the expansion. During the drought, Dow also began using cleaned-up wastewater from a nearby operation.
"We may not want to drink it, but we can certainly wash a rail car out with it," Shipp said.
Dow's new facilities will also be less water-intensive than those using earlier technologies, but the company also bought land last year to build another reservoir.
As for power, even a brief blackout can cause potentially critical disruptions at chemical plants. The Texas electric grid has recently come under scrutiny for not having enough power reserves to accommodate a growing population, especially during hot summers in the future (although abundant natural gas has created cheap power, which helps the plants).
Many chemical plants generate electricity themselves. Dow produces enough to operate independent of the grid, but some plants do not.
"I don't know that anyone is immune to the questions of reliability," said James LeBas, a fiscal consultant to various industry groups.
Environmentalists, for their part, are worried about air pollution. Matthew Tejada, executive director of Air Alliance Houston, said the major concern was ozone levels, which were high in Texas last year.
In the Houston area, Tejada said in an email, "the next several years could be the worst for ozone in terms of adding new sources of ozone precursors since regulations began in the 1970s."
