Construction flexes economic muscle
|| Print |
|Tuesday, August 01, 2006
During the past year, Oregon employers added 58,100 nonfarm jobs, a 3.5% gain. Of all sectors, construction added the most jobs (11,400) and grew the fastest (12.7%), more than three times the national rate of construction growth. The turnaround for Oregon's construction industry came in July 2003, after losing 8,600 jobs (10%) during the recession. Rapid growth has touched all parts of the industry. Residential building jobs climbed 20% over the past year. Oregon housing permits jumped 14% in 2005, the seventh-fastest in the United States, as low interest rates, a growing population, second-home purchases, innovative mortgages, and speculative buying in markets such as Ashland and Bend boosted the state's housing market. Meanwhile, year-over-year growth in commercial and industrial construction topped 17% in May. Hospitals, shopping centers, and medical offices are being built throughout the state. Also under construction are a minimum-security prison in Madras, Google's plant in The Dalles, Lowe's 1.4 million-square-foot distribution center north of Lebanon and Symantec's 200,000-square-foot Springfield addition. Sewer work, road repair, and other infrastructure improvements are also keeping heavy and civil engineering firms busy, with nearly 400 Oregon bridges targeted for repair.

There are many wineries in the Temecula area, which won't be far from where you're staying.

You'll want to overnight at least once between LA and SF, or twice if time permits. If only one night, I'd suggest Cambria (which is near Hearst Castle, and its well worth squeezing in a tour of Hearst) as its about half way. If two nights, I'd do Santa Barbara or Cambria, and then Monterey or Carmel for the overnight stopovers. For wineries, I'm not familiar with options along the entire route but one area you might want to take a brief detour off of Highway 1 will be Santa Ynez which is near Santa Barbara.

Philippe: Are you sure you meant to post that response on this thread. Nothing was asked about SF, Cambria, the coast, etc etc . . .

For art and history:
I'd suggest a day to Pasadena to see the Huntington Garden and Library...treasures there include one of the Gutenberg Bibles, Shakespeare's First Folio, the painting Blue Boy and much more. We also liked the gardens a lot.
I also am a fan of the Norton Simon Museum in Pasadena. A small museum with artwork by Rembrandt, Rodin, Titian (I think) and more. It is a very thoughtful and concise collection. Well worth the time.
Several people live in that area now and can give you restaurant recs.

You must make at least a half a day at the Getty Museum. The facility and the scenic view are worth the visit not to mention the fine art collection. The museum includes several good restaurant options; include lunch in your plans.
La Brea tar pits is a famous visitor destination with much ancient history of the LA basin. It's a quick visit in downtown LA.
Having a lunch at the Farmers Market 6333 W. 3rd provides an option of about 70 food stands, many very good and located next to the Grove, a very upscale shopping mall.
Take the scenic Mullholland Drive atop the Santa Monicas with beautiful vistas of LA and the valley. Spectacular day or night.
Take care to watch your distances and travel times. It is way too easy to spend too much time on the freeways and stuck in traffic. That's not a vacation.

Are you sure you want to stay in Ontario for the entire week? You could move to Santa Monica for a few nights, to be closer to beach communities.
I heartily recommend the Getty Museum, or the Getty Center. Both are amazing.

Thank you all so much for your responses! My husband is staying in ontario for work so we have to be there the entire time.

If you have a smart phone, download the free app WAZE. It is a GPS system which will alert you to traffic snarls or other problems on your route ahead, and it will give you an alternate route. And WAZE will easily re-configure your route, if you miss a turn. I could not navigate LA without it!

Arlington, TX (SportsNetwork.com) - Derek Norris smacked a pair of doubles and drove in three runs and the Oakland Athletics defeated the Texas Rangers, 9-3, in the second test of a three-game set.
Josh Reddick tallied three RBI and Yoenis Cespedes scored three runs for Oakland, which has won four of its last six games.
Scott Kazmir (4-0) surrendered three runs on seven hits and a walk over five innings to notch the win.
"I could have let him go out again, but they made him work pretty hard," A's manager Bob Melvin said
Martin Perez (4-1) yielded eight runs on eight hits and three walks over 4 2/3 frames for the Rangers, who have dropped three in a row.
"Tonight, it didn't happen how I wanted," Perez said.
Oakland had already held a 4-1 lead after four innings before blowing the game wide open following a five-run fifth.
Jed Lowrie singled, Josh Donaldson doubled and Cespedes walked to load the bases with one away. Norris popped out and Lowrie came home when Alberto Callaspo walked. Jason Frasor then came on and issued a free pass to Brandon Moss to bring in Donaldson.
Reddick then grounded a single through the hole on the right side to plate two more runs and a wild pitch scored Moss to make it 9-1.
Texas got a pair of runs in the home half on an RBI groundout from Elvis Andrus and an RBI single by Prince Fielder.
Earlier, Norris' two-run double in the first, Reddick's RBI groundout in the second and another run-scoring double from Norris in the third helped the A's race out to a 4-0 lead.
Alex Rios' RBI double in the fourth cut the deficit to 4-1.
Oakland was 2-for-10 with runners in scoring position, while Texas finished 2-
for-9 ... Coco Crisp and Lowrie each posted two hits and a run scored.

Holiday dinners often include the traditional turkey and dressing, pumpkin pie, and more. All these foods include a variety of herbs and spices, which make the food taste great! Rhonda Ferree, Horticulture Educator with University of Illinois Extension, says that there are differences between herbs and spices.
"Herbs are leaves of low-growing shrubs," says Ferree. Examples are parsley, chives, marjoram, thyme, basil, caraway, dill, oregano, rosemary, savory, sage and celery leaves. These can be used fresh or dried. Dried forms may be whole, crushed, or ground. Many herbs can be grown in the United States in or out of doors.
Ferree explains that spices usually come from plant parts other than leaves. "Spices come from the bark (cinnamon), root (ginger, onion, garlic), buds (cloves, saffron), seeds (yellow mustard, poppy, sesame), berry (black pepper), or the fruit (allspice, paprika) of tropical plants and trees."
Sage is one of Rhonda's favorite herbs. It can be used a variety of ways. "I particularly like sage in dressing," says Ferree. "You can also use it in meatloaf, soup (my Mom makes a great bean soup that takes sage!), bread, sausages, omelets, and more."
Sage is really easy to grow and a very pretty plant. It comes in a variety of leaf colors, including the traditional green. There is also purple sage, tricolor (cream, purple, and green), pineapple, golden, and more. Sage also has a beautiful purple flower that hummingbirds will visit.
Rhonda loves to pepper her food. "I'm one of those people who pepper almost all my food." Black pepper comes from the pepper (Piper nigrum) vine in tropical locations. The black pepper is obtained from the dried unripe fruit. When the outer covering is removed it produces white pepper. To get green pepper, the green peppercorns are treated to retain the green color. Pink pepper or red peppercorns are rare and consist of ripe red pepper berries preserved in brine and vinegar. You can commonly find dried "pink peppercorns", but they are usually the fruits of a plant from a different family.
Ferree says that paprika is a spice of the pepper plant. In the United States, paprika is typically made of non-pungent red chili peppers. In Europe, however, you can get paprika of varying degrees of "hotness" depending on which pepper was ground. Similarly, chili powder is made of ground peppers and is typically mildly spicy in the United States. Paprika and chili powder can be made from any pepper (Capsicum sp.) including the chili, cayenne, and red pepper.
Enjoy this holiday season of good food with family and friends! For more information on this or other horticultural issues, contact your local Extension office by visiting www.extension.illinois.edu. You can also post questions on Rhonda's facebook page at www.facebook.com/ferree.horticulture.

If you have a question about this talk, please contact Jay Farihi.
Disk accretion onto a weakly magnetized central object, e.g. a white dwarf or a neutron star, is inevitably accompanied by the formation of a boundary layer near the surface, in which matter slows down from the highly supersonic orbital velocity of the disk to the rotational velocity of the star. Here I will describe a novel, robust mechanism of the angular momentum transport inside the astrophysical boundary layers. Using high resolution 2D and 3D hydrodynamical simulations in the equatorial plane of a boundary layer we generically find that the supersonic shear in the boundary layer excites non-axisymmetric quasi-stationary acoustic modes that are trapped between the surface of the star and a Lindblad resonance in the disk. These modes rotate in a prograde fashion, are stable for hundreds of orbital periods, and have a pattern speed that is less than and of order the rotational velocity at the inner edge of the disk. Dissipation of acoustic modes in weak shocks provides a universal mechanism for angular momentum and mass transport even in purely hydrodynamic (i.e. non-magnetized) boundary layers. Periodicity of these trapped modes may be relevant for explaining the variability seen in accreting compact objects.

Condor Flies to Adult Amateur Hunter 18-35 Section A Championship with Tracey Mack-Gorin
RELEASE: February 16, 2013
AUTHOR/ADMINISTRATOR: Lauren Fisher and Laura Cardon for Jennifer Wood Media, Inc.
Condor and Tracey Mack-Gorin (Anne Gittins Photography)
Lexington, KY
- It may only be his third show on American soil, but Condor is settling in nicely at the FTI Consulting Winter Equestrian Festival (FTI WEF). Tracey Mack-Gorin piloted Stepping Stone Farm's five-year-old Warmblood gelding to championship honors in the Adult Amateur Hunter 18-35 Section A division during week six of the FTI WEF.
Condor has also competed in Pre-Green and Performance Hunter divisions with Christine Kear in the irons, but appears to be hitting his stride this week with Mack-Gorin as he clinched tricolor honors with a near-perfect performance in the Adult Amateur division. The pair finished first and fifth over fences during day one of competition for the division, followed by two more blue ribbon finishes over fences day two, and fifth place under saddle.
Reserve champion was Artie, ridden by Jean Sheptoff and owned by Patricia Moss. Sheptoff and Artie were first and second over fences day one and third in both over fences classes day two. The pair wrapped up day two with a third place ribbon under saddle.
Mack-Gorin has had little time to get to know Condor, who made his American showing debut during week one of the FTI WEF, but Mack-Gorin is already enamored with the gelding. "I just rode him for the first time last week and he's just really fun," Mack-Gorin smiled.
Condor's exceptional temperament both under saddle and on the ground is what Mack-Gorin enjoys most about her mount. "He has a great temperament, so even if I make a mistake, he's very tolerant of that. He's also so comfortable and even [under saddle]," Mack-Gorin described. "[In the barn], he's so friendly and snuggly. He loves to be cozy with you!"
Despite his young age and relative inexperience, Condor was not rattled by the monsoon-like weather conditions during day one of the division. "He was great! He didn't like it much on his nose, but for his first time showing in the rain, he was really, really good," Mack-Gorin described.
Mack-Gorin attributes Condor's success to his picture-perfect, yet extremely rideable, jumping style. "He's got a really easy jump, but he jumps very well at the same time. He's very comfortable yet gives a really nice jump. I think he'll be a really good horse," she commented.
Mack-Gorin also complimented course designer Scott Starns' well-planned layout. "The courses were great both days. I love being in the Rost Arena because you have a little bit more space than some of the smaller hunter arenas. It's much easier to turn," Mack-Gorin concluded.

Jeb vs. Marco Match-up in 2016 Unlikely
Two of the key figures in the Republican Party happen to live in the same city, in the same state, share many supporters and donors and enjoy a close, personal friendship where one has been a mentor to the other. So they both can't run for president against each other, right?
One of the most interesting subplots in the open race for president in 2016, which will begin in about 18 months after the midterm elections, is whether former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) or Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) choose to run for president.
Both have strong cases to make.
Bush was a hugely successful and innovative two-term governor of Florida, who cut taxes every year and reformed education and healthcare, winning the state by a comfortable margin.
For someone who hasn't run for office since 2002, he commands respect and national media attention, and is widely recognized as a national expert on education and immigration issues. His nationwide donor base is significant.
He just turned 60 years old, so after passing on running in 2012, the open race in 2016 could be his last real chance, as he would potentially be 70 years old before his next opportunity to run. His last name was a political burden in 2012, just four years removed from the controversial two-term presidency of his younger brother, but concerns over a Bush dynasty might recede if Hillary Clinton runs on the other side.
Marco Rubio was elected to the Senate in 2010 and is consistently regarded as a rising star in the Republican Party, while maintaining his Tea Party appeal.
Rubio's stature was confirmed when he was chosen by the Romney campaign to give a prime-time address at the 2012 GOP convention in Tampa, Fla., and party leaders asked him to give the State of the Union response last month.
Rubio is currently leading a bipartisan group to pass comprehensive immigration reform legislation this year, requiring Rubio to walk a fine line between primary and general election politics. He is the most skilled communicator of his generation, and his Cuban heritage would be a major asset in 2016. Rubio could conceivably pass on running for president in 2016, instead seeking reelection while he waits for a future national opportunity.
Both candidates have much to consider. Running for president requires a willingness to make a minimum 10-year commitment, with a two-year manic pace on the campaign trail and the possibility of eight years in office. Family members must be on board and vulnerabilities must be considered.
So who runs, and how do they decide?
Bush has been a mentor to Rubio, who served in the state Legislature and rose to be Speaker of the House there. Does the mentor earn the right of first refusal?
It is unlikely that both Bush and Rubio could and would run in 2016. Many of their strongest supporters overlap, and key Florida donors would be forced into an impossible position to choose one friend over the other.
Perhaps most importantly, they would presumably not want to run against each other as they see the world the same way, deeply respect each other, and to some extent, share a policy record from their time in service to Florida.
Both potential candidates are sending signals showing interest in running. Bush co-authored a just-released book on immigration and has sought national media coverage. He continues to work on education reform across the country and appears to be engaging in politics more actively than he has in the past few years.
Rubio has bulked up his Senate staff, and his campaign organization is filled with top consultants and operatives to handle the overwhelming volume of scheduling requests he receives.
Will the candidates meet privately and talk it through?
Does Bush finally decide to run, casting aside family doubt and his desire to secure his financial future? Does Rubio, like then-Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) before him, decide that extended Senate service is a political liability and national office is the next logical step?
Watching the interplay between these two friends and national leaders will be one of the most interesting subplots of the 2016 campaign.

Roman Lyniuk will never be a hedge fund manager again, but he won't pay for his alleged crimes in the strictest sense of the term.
The Securities and Exchange Commission has waived the $5.2 million fine it planned to impose on the Atlantis Capital Management founder. Lyniuk was found to have defrauded investors by providing misleading performance results and by paying himself and his friends while investors waited for their redemptions.
Lyniuk's fine was waived based on statements he made and documents he submitted to the SEC, though it is unclear what that evidence showed.
Lyniuk has been barred from the investment industry.

Charity Awards winner Sharon Berry was among the many sector personalities recognised in the Queen's Birthday Honours list for 2010 this week. Berry, whose charity Storybook Dads took home the Overall Winner award in 2007, has received an OBE for services to children and families.
Berry said: "I am extremely honoured to have been awarded an OBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours list and delighted that the work I do with Storybook Dads is considered to be worthy of inclusion.
"Storybook Dads has continued to grow since winning the Charity Awards in 2007 and 40 more prisons have joined the scheme since then. This ongoing rapid growth means I am continually developing strategies and funding plans to meet the obvious need for our service. This can be quite exhausting during a recession and an honour of this kind is an enormous boost for me and I hope will also serve to inspire others throughout civil society."
The Queen's Birthday Honours list details individuals nominated by members of the public and approved by Her Royal Highness for a knighthood, CBE, OBE or MBE. NCVO chief executive Stuart Etherington received a knighthood while John Carr, renowned consultant on internet child safety, was honoured with an OBE for services to child protection on the internet.
Carr expressed his delight at the achievement: "Of course I felt flattered and honoured to receive the golden letter telling me I was being offered an OBE.
"I know that virtue is its own reward but, if you work in the public policy space as I have done for many years, it is very gratifying to know that your peers have recognised and acknowledged the value of your work…Me getting the OBE was society kind of saying 'Yes. Protecting children on the internet is now accepted as a mainstream public policy concern and these huge civil society organisations - the children's charities - led the charge.' I couldn't have done what I did without them so I feel they own a big part of it."
Bryn and Emma Parry, co-founders of Help for Heroes were awarded for voluntary service to the armed forces. After serving with the Royal Green Jackets, now The Rifles, for ten years Bryn Parry left the forces and set up a successful career as a cartoonist with his wife Emma. But following a rousing visit to Selly Oak Hospital in the summer of 2007, the couple set out to raise money for injured soldiers. By 2009 Help for Heroes had become so big they sold their company to concentrate full time on the charity which has raised millions of pounds for the war wounded.
Jehangir Malik's was rewarded for services to Islamic relief after a career which has seen him rise from volunteer to UK Director of Islamic Relief UK and Leslie Ann Morphy, chief executive of Crisis was honoured for services to homeless people. Thodosia Sowa, policy adviser and consultant to a wide range of international development organisations at Charity Commission and consultant at CIFF was rewarded for services to the voluntary sector in the UK and overseas.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Federal judges across the nation are shouldering criminal caseloads that vary widely in size, sometimes even among judges in the same courthouse, according to a new study.
The study by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, or TRAC, at Syracuse University found three courthouses where the judge with the largest criminal caseload had sentenced more than twice the number of defendants as the judge with the smallest caseload from October 2006 through July 2012. They were Los Angeles; Beaumont, Texas; and Camden, N.J.
Overall, the study found 18 courthouses where the heaviest sentencing load was at least 1.4 times larger than the smallest.
The study, release Sunday, was made possible because the clearinghouse, which uses the Freedom of Information Act to collect criminal justice data, earlier this year assembled the first publicly available database of sentencing records, sortable by judge.
Judges in the courthouses with the widest disparities cited unique local circumstances to explain the differences.
David Sellers, a spokesman for the administrative office of U.S. courts, said he wasn't surprised or concerned with these findings. He noted, however, that the judiciary needs more judges, particularly along the Southwest border.
That appeal for more judges was buttressed by another finding of the study that documented a more widely known disparity in criminal caseloads between districts in different regions. These regional differences are driven by the large number of immigration cases along the Southwest border where judges have long complained they handle too many cases to give each one proper consideration.
The clearinghouse study analyzed the criminal caseloads of 430 federal district judges who were all active for the entire study period, almost six years. It measured workload by sentencings and excluded acquittals because "acquittals are exceedingly rare," said Susan Long, a co-director of TRAC and co-author of the report, along with former New York Times investigative reporter David Burnham, TRAC's other co-director.
Atop the list of districts with internal disparities were the two federal courthouses in Los Angeles. One judge there had sentenced 305 people, while another had sentenced 134.
George H. King, chief judge of the U.S. District Court in the Central District of California, said he had not had an opportunity to review the study or its methodology and declined to comment. But officials in other jurisdictions with the widest disparities provided explanations.
Second in internal disparity was Beaumont, Texas, which has just two judges: Marcia A. Crone, who sentenced 1,288 people during the period, and Ron Clark, who sentenced around 618. Both judges called that divide a reflection of how they divide the work in other courthouses they must travel to as part of their responsibilities, with Clark handling more civil cases and Crone more criminal cases.
The third greatest internal disparity was in Camden, N.J. Jerome Simandle, the chief judge of the U.S. District Court for New Jersey, said two of Camden's four judges took no part in many criminal cases early in their tenure because of their former jobs as prosecutors. They both joined the court in 2006, which was coincidentally the beginning of the study period.
In addition, experienced judges tend to get cases that are related to cases they are already working on, Simandle said. "So experienced judges tend to get more cases," Simandle said.
TRAC contacted clerks in a sample of districts. The clerks who agreed to be interviewed "uniformly indicated that while judges were randomly assigned by the court's computerized software system, adjustments were allowed in the 'odds of selection' when directed by the chief judge in a district (or sometimes by an individual judge)," the report stated.
TRAC's comparison of caseloads between regions confirmed that courthouses on the Southwest border had by far the highest number of sentences. Atop the list was the courthouse in Las Cruces, N.M., where Judge Robert C. Brack is the only district judge, with 7,020 defendants sentenced. The next four were other Texas courthouses in McAllen, Midland, El Paso and Del Rio. Each of the judges in those courthouses averaged more than 4,600 sentences. The 11 courthouses with the highest caseloads were all on the border, "because of the government's sharply increased emphasis on the criminal enforcement of immigration matters," the report stated.
On the opposite end, the courthouse in the nation's capital had the lowest average number of criminal defendants sentenced per judge - 147 over the nearly six years in the study.
"We have many more complex cases than most of the districts listed in the report," said Washington's chief judge, Royce Lamberth. He noted that the court handles public corruption cases, white-collar cases and any prosecution for obstruction of Congress, which can be time-consuming. Just this year, the court tried former baseball pitcher Roger Clemens on charges of perjury, making false statements and obstructing Congress for denying he had used performance-enhancing drugs. A jury acquitted Clemens of all charges after a trial that lasted more than nine weeks.
"So comparing a case in which there's a one-hour, at most, guilty plea in an immigration violation, and probably one hour spent on sentencing, can't really compare to the kinds of cases we're doing," Lamberth said
Sellers, spokesman for the office that provides administrative support to federal courts, said that differences in caseloads have "been a reality of judging - not just in federal courts - for more than two centuries."
"I would liken this to a study that concludes that cars traveling on the same road, or different roads, travel at different speeds," Sellers said.
That doesn't mean things can't be improved, he added. "There are courts that have tremendous needs for new judgeships, particularly on the Southwest border. There are longstanding judicial vacancies." But the judiciary doesn't control the number of judges.
The report acknowledged that Congress, which funds the courts, and the executive branch, which brings prosecutions, both have a responsibility for helping to manage criminal caseloads.

Emirates NBD poised for sukuk sale this month
Issuance will largely depend on price
Dubai: Emirates NBD, the UAE's largest bank by assets, intends to sell an Islamic bond (sukuk) this month, said Rick Pudner, CEO of the bank yesterday.
Emirates Islamic Bank (EIB), the Islamic bank belonging to the group, is likely to launch a benchmark-sized issue.
"We are aiming for the launch of the issue sometime this month. We have not yet finalised the size of the issue. It will largely depend on the price," said Pudner.
Meanwhile, bankers close to the bond issue said the managers and book runners have been identified and the issue could hit the market as early as the second week of this month.
Emirates NBD has a debt of Dh8 billion maturing in 2012. The bank has been looking at various funding options to finance the maturities.
"The maturities this year are within our financing capabilities, but we will be exploring various funding options," Pudner said during a conference call in October.
Funding options
The bank's top management has always maintained that it would look at funding options such as sukuk and conventional bonds.
But the bank has repeatedly said it would not overpay for issuing new debt, and pricing levels so far this year had been too expensive. In May, the bank completed a debt swap for two existing notes due to expire in 2016 for longer-term debt.
"We have been exploring the bond/sukuk option for medium-term funding. But the huge volatility in the market kept us away from the market.
"It does not make business sense to borrow at such high costs," Surya Subramanian, Group Chief Financial Officer of Emirates NBD, said.
If the sukuk issue goes through, the bank will join Union National Bank, Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank and Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank, all of which issued benchmark-sized sukuk in the fourth quarter.
Technology: Tanfeeth, IBM ink deal
Tanfeeth, a fully-owned subsidiary of Emirates NBD, has announced a long-term strategic agreement with IBM to support Tanfeeth as the Gulf Cooperation Council's first shared services organisation.
Through this agreement, IBM will provide Tanfeeth with access to its global process capabilities in services, tools and training, and manage part of Tanfeeth's delivery portfolio.
"This strategic agreement which will solidify Tanfeeth's position as the GCC's first-ever shared services organisation," said Rick Pudner, CEO of Emirates NBD.

Peugeot defends car over inquest query
Thursday 14 October 2010
Questions were raised about the safety of a Peugeot car today following the death of a middle-aged woman in a head-on smash.
Judith Evans, 56, died in the collision with a Vauxhall Vectra on her way home from work on January 20 last year.
The driver of the Vectra only suffered fractures to her kneecap and internal bruising.
But Mrs Evans, a Chiltern Railways customer relations officer who drove a Peugeot 107, received injuries deemed by experts to be "not typical of the outcomes usually seen in such collisions".
They found that she died in accident circumstances in which an "efficient restraint system" - including a properly functioning seatbelt and airbag - is designed to provide good protection, an inquest into her death heard.
Vehicle Safety Consultancy Ltd (VSC) were asked by Thames Valley Police to consider the protection offered to Mrs Evans in the collision on Coldharbour Way in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, after they noticed her injuries seemed unusually severe for the force of the impact.
Peter Gloyns, a mechanical engineer at VSC, told the inquest at High Wycombe Magistrates' Court in Bucks that the car's restraint system did not appear to have worked in the way it would be expected to.
He said: "The accident raises a serious question over the stability of the response of the total restraint system for an occupant of this build and weight in an accident of this severity in which it would be hoped that good protection could be offered."
Mrs Evans, from Aylesbury, Bucks, was of larger than average build, weighing 15 stone and measuring 5ft 9ins, the inquest heard.
Dr Gloyns suggested improvements may be needed to ensure that larger drivers were provided the same protection as slimmer ones.
Reading from VSC's report on the accident, he said: "It is recommended that the outcome of this accident be made known to the vehicle, seat belt and airbag manufacturers involved, so that their designers can consider what measures are needed to improve the total restraint system tolerance to different sized occupants."
Both women were driving at about 30mph when the accident occurred, according to the Vauxhall driver.
But when their vehicles smashed into each other, Mrs Evans did not receive the usual protection provided by the design of the seat, the seat belt and the airbag, the inquest heard.
She suffered multiple fractures, chest injuries and abdominal injuries.
A Peugeot representative told the inquest that the company's seatbelts conformed with the regulations and suggested Mrs Evans was not sitting in the normal position in her seat but was leaning forward.
Barrister William Vandyck, representing Peugeot, said: "Peugeot feel it's more likely the seatbelt was not over the pelvis to start with but over the abdomen."
Mrs Evans' position in the seat may have meant that the "anti-submarining device" built into it to absorb some of the energy in a crash was not restraining her, he added.
The device itself, however, was in line with regulations and was given a four star rating when it was tested.
He also pointed out that the Vauxhall was heavier than the Peugeot and suggested that a hard part of the Vauxhall hit a soft part of the Peugeot, causing greater crushing of the Peugeot.
Mother-of-three Mrs Evans, usually a cautious driver, had been driving in a manner entirely out of keeping with her usual road behaviour, the inquest heard.
The Vauxhall driver, giving evidence at the opening yesterday, broke down in tears as she recalled the crash.
Susan Paterson, fleet manager for a local company, had been heading home from work when she saw Mrs Evans' car coming straight at her.
She said: "As I looked ahead I saw a car. It came out into my lane and was coming straight towards me.
"It wasn't creeping, it was just coming at speed towards me. I remember thinking 'what can I do?' I thought 'it's going to hit me and I'm going to have to sit there while it does."'
She could not see anyone in the driver's seat, which "really freaked me out," she said.
The court heard how Mrs Evans had just exited a roundabout when she began driving on the wrong side of the road towards Ms Paterson's car.
The Vauxhall driver said the Peugeot "seemed to be slightly out of control."
Mr Vandyck said: "One of the unusual features of this accident was the deceased was moving in a manner shortly before it that was entirely out of keeping with her normal driving.
"We've also heard there were reasons for her to be tired and that Mrs Paterson couldn't see the driver of the Peugeot.
"Any one of these features suggests something unusual has happened to Mrs Evans before the accident.
"Her husband suggests she may have had a medical accident."
Dean Evans also told the inquest his late wife always drove fully upright and sat very close to the steering wheel, Mr Vandyck pointed out.
He said: "It appears the impact of the accident is explicable by the overloading of the other safety features because of the positioning of the pelvis on top of the anti-submarining device."
The VSC report found there had been a lack of interaction between Mrs Evans' pelvis and the anti-submarining ramp, and the airbag did not intervene effectively between her chest and the steering wheel.
The seatbelt alone was not enough to protect her and it let out a large length of webbing and did not stop her being thrown forward as much as would normally be the case, it said.
Dr Gloyns disagreed that Mrs Evans had been sitting in an odd position before the accident.
He said: "The whole picture is consistent with her sitting normally in the seat."
The three-day inquest was adjourned to tomorrow, when a Peugeot representative is due to give evidence.

NATO agrees to send Patriot missiles to Turkey
BRUSSELS (Reuters) - NATO agreed on Tuesday to send Patriot missiles to Turkey to defend against a possible Syrian missile attack and voiced grave concern about reports that Damascus may be preparing to use chemical weapons.
"To the Turkish people we say: We are determined to defend you and your territory. To anyone who would want to attack Turkey we say: Don't even think about it," NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said after the 28-nation alliance foreign ministers took the decision at a meeting in Brussels.
NATO-member Turkey repeatedly has scrambled jets along the countries' joint frontier and responded in kind when shells from the Syrian conflict came down inside its borders, fuelling fears that the civil war could spread to destabilise the region.
It quickly welcomed the move. "This decision is important, as it demonstrates and re-confirms allied solidarity and unity in practical terms," Turkey's Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
Germany, the Netherlands and the United States plan to provide Patriot missile batteries, the ministers said, but they gave no details on numbers. Deployment is expected to take several weeks, given the need for approval by national parliaments and the logistics of delivering the missiles.
NATO ministers unanimously expressed "grave concern" about reports that the Syrian government may be prepared to use its chemical weapons, Rasmussen said. He warned earlier that any use of chemical weapons by Syria would prompt an immediate international response.
Turkey wants to reinforce its air defences to deal with the threat of ballistic missiles from Syria, particularly a potential chemical weapons' threat, a NATO diplomat said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle said he expected the German parliament would approve Patriot deployment.
"I have already had several discussions with different parties and my impression is that the placement of defence missiles to protect Turkey in Turkey will get a broad parliamentary majority," he told reporters in Brussels.
NATO says the measure is purely defensive, but Russia, Syria and Iran have criticised the decision, saying it increases regional instability.
After talks with NATO foreign ministers in Brussels, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov repeated Russian concerns that the Syrian conflict was becoming increasingly militarised and accused NATO of over-reacting.
"Yes, there were artillery strikes but we believe that they were not intentional," he told a news conference.
Russia, which has a fractious relationship with the military alliance, has been at odds with NATO over how to end the war and has vetoed U.N. resolutions aimed at pressuring Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to step down.
Rasmussen said Patriot missiles would be effective as interceptors, whether attacking missiles carry chemical weapons or conventional warheads.
Asked whether blowing-up a chemical warhead in mid-air could contaminate a wide area, a NATO official said: "Any damage caused by a chemical missile attack that hits its target would be much greater than any possible damage from an intercept."
Britain has told the Syrian government that any use of chemical weapons would have "serious consequences", British Foreign Secretary William Hague said.
U.S. President Barack Obama told Assad on Monday not to use chemical weapons, without saying how the United States might respond.
The United States has collected what has been described as highly classified intelligence information demonstrating that Syria is making what could be construed as preparations to use elements of its extensive chemical weapons arsenal, two U.S. government sources briefed on the issue said.
Western military experts say Syria has four suspected chemical weapons sites, and it can produce chemical weapons agents including mustard gas and sarin, and possibly also VX nerve agent.
Syria said on Monday it would not use chemical weapons against its own people and Russia's Lavrov was sceptical about the media reports that Syria was willing to use its stockpile.
"It is not the first time that the messages appear ... that Syrian authorities are transferring their stockpiles of chemical weapons to other places or that they are willing to apply these weapons," he said, according to an interpreter.
Moscow checked such reports, but "every time we get confirmation that nothing of this sort is being prepared," he said.
NATO officials have said repeatedly the alliance has no intention of getting involved in Syria's civil war, but they are concerned about the situation on its border with Turkey.
