Talkers New York 2014 Videos Being Posted. Up Today: Joyce Kaufman of WFTL, Ft. Lauderdale Receives the TALKERS "Humanitarian of the Year" Award. Today (7/22) marks the sixth business day of TALKERS magazine's video posting of speeches, sessions and presentations made during last month's 17th annual installment of the talk media industry's longest-running and most important national convention – Talkers New York 2014. The presentation of these informative and historic recordings is sponsored by WYD Media Sales, LLC., the rep firm recently launched by Ron Hartenbaum and headed by John Murphy, that specializes in the advertising sales of spoken-word media on all popular platforms. The worldwide showing of these very special videos continues today with part 1 of the event's traditional "Talkers Awards Ceremony" emceed by legendary Westwood One talk show host Jim Bohannon and featuring the presentation of the Sharon L. Harrison Memorial Award for Outstanding Community Service by a Radio Broadcaster by Talk Media, Inc. CEO Carole Marks (pictured here at left) to WFTL, Ft. Lauderdale personality Joyce Kaufman (pictured here at right). Kaufman gives a powerful acceptance speech in which she expresses her humble appreciation and encourages her fellow talk show hosts to exercise their radio programs' full potential as a service to their communities, which she says are becoming increasingly disconnected due in part to the very technology of the modern era. She states, "If not us – who? If we don't move people from merely talking into actually doing, we are missing the blessing that this platform gives us. If we don't help the people who deserve our help, we will feed into the notion that we are a dispassionate nation that needs government to take care of us." View the video of the award presentation here. Coming tomorrow: part 2 of the Talkers Awards Ceremony in which last year's recipient of the Judy Jarvis Memorial Award for Outstanding Contributions to the Radio Industry by a Woman (also known as the "Woman of the Year" award), Heather Cohen EVP, The Weiss Agency presents the honor to this year's recipient, Julie Talbott, president, Premiere Networks. The TALKERS conference videos were recorded by Art Vuolo.
Mancow Sues Maverick Radio Partners. From a story in today's Chicago Tribune, Chicago-based talk show host Erich "Mancow" Muller is suing Maverick Radio Partners – led by Rodney Rainey – for allegedly trying to defraud him of $50,000 purported to be targeted to radio station investments. The Tribune story relates that Muller was approached by Rainey in December 2011 to be an investor in a project that would acquire a number of radio stations — beginning with WFRE and WFMD in Frederick, Maryland – and that the company had financial backing from Spartacus Partners Group. Based on a verbal deal, Mancow transferred $50,000 to Maverick with the understanding it would be held in escrow until Mancow was provided with documented proof that the additional funding for the station purchases was secured. That never happened and when Mancow sought his money back from Maverick, he alleges he received promises the money was on its way but it was never returned. Mancow is suing Maverick for fraud and breach of contract and is seeking the $50,000, plus interest and attorneys' fees. See the Tribune story here.

In addition, the assistance provided by the Consumer Action Center is right in line with Clark and CMG's commitment to serving others in our communities.

Clear Channel Releases Q1 Financials: CCM+E Up 2%. This morning Clear Channel released financial data for the first quarter of 2014 and the Clear Channel Media + Entertainment group – radio stations, Premiere Networks, Total Traffic + Weather, iHeartRadio and related live events – saw income rise 2% compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company says "Media + Entertainment revenue rose $14 million, or 2% compared to the same period of 2013, driven primarily by higher revenues at our traffic and weather business reflecting new product offerings and the impact of strategic sales initiatives, as well as higher national sales fueled by growth in the telecommunications, healthcare and automotive categories, and higher digital advertising revenue benefitting from an increase in total listening hours on our iHeartRadio platform. Partially offsetting these revenue gains was a decline in our local revenues. Operating expenses were up $26 million during the first quarter of 2014 versus the same period in 2013, due primarily to higher compensation expenses driven by investments in our national and digital sales forces, and increased production costs for events such as the iHeartRadio Country Music Festival, as well as greater digital streaming and performance rights expenses driven by increased total listening hours and revenues. OIBDAN decreased $13 million, or 6%, to $200 million in the first quarter of 2014."

Nielsen Reports Positive First Quarter; Revenue Up 12.9%. That figure is compared to the same period a year ago on revenue of $1.49 billion. Nielsen Holdings N.V. chief executive officer Mitch Barns says, "Nielsen delivered a solid first quarter. Our underlying business performance, which was marked by broad-based revenue growth and strong profitability, was enhanced by the ongoing successful integration of Arbitron. Our clear focus on the key business priorities of our diverse global client base continues to produce steady and consistent results while delivering long-term value for our shareholders." The company reports that free cash flow for the first quarter of 2014 increased to $13 million from -$15 million in the first quarter of 2013 and cash flow from operations increased to $90 million in the first quarter of 2014 from $54 million in first quarter of 2013. The increases were driven by stronger operating performance and favorable interest payments.
Rover's Legal Team to Call Howard Stern as Witness in Cleveland Case. When WMMS, Cleveland morning show host Shane "Rover" French appears in court on May 20 to defend himself against 13 charges – including attempted felonious assault, inducing panic and resisting arrest – his lawyer is calling Howard Stern as a witness, according to Fox 8 Cleveland. It's not clear why Stern would be a relevant witness or if he'll even appear. Co-host Michael Toomey, a.k.a. Chocolate Charlie, was arrested along with French during the incident that took place over the 2013 Fourth of July holiday weekend in which an off-duty police officer claims French and Toomey shot off illegal fireworks, refused requests to stop, assaulted him and more.
Media World A-Twitter Over FFC 'Net Neutrality' Plans. The chatter got so intense over reports about what today's announcement by the FCC regarding its new open Internet rules will be that FCC chairman Tom Wheeler issued the following statement to counter speculation. "There are reports that the FCC is gutting the Open Internet rule. They are flat out wrong. Tomorrow we will circulate to the Commission a new Open Internet proposal that will restore the concepts of net neutrality consistent with the court's ruling in January. There is no 'turnaround in policy.' The same rules will apply to all Internet content. As with the original Open Internet rules, and consistent with the court's decision, behavior that harms consumers or competition will not be permitted." What got people so uptight? Numerous sources – including the Wall Street Journal, the Associated Press, Fox News and others – say today's announcement will propose that content companies be allowed to pay for faster delivery over the so-called "last mile" connection to people's homes. The Associated Press writes, "The new rules are meant to replace the FCC's open Internet order from 2010, which was struck down by a federal appeals court in January. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit affirmed that the FCC had the authority to create open-access rules but said it failed to establish that its 2010 regulations didn't overreach. While the older rules technically allowed for paid priority treatment, it was discouraged. The new rules spell out standards that such deals would have to meet to be considered 'commercially reasonable' and are designed to survive a court challenge in the future. Under the proposed rules, if such a deal for priority access were challenged, the commission would look at its impact on competition, on consumers, on free speech and civic engagement, and whether a broadband provider was acting in good faith."
The Next Generation(s). At the Cox Media Group Houston office, the sound of the pitter-patter of little feet could be heard as staffers brought their progeny to work for the annual "Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day." Altogether, 18 young people (pictured here with some of the parents), ranging from 2 ½ to 13 years of age came to work on Thursday (4/24) to follow their parents on a typical day. Well, a mostly typical day, as activities were planned for every age group. The kids will learn to record a commercial, use their voices for station on-air promotions, participate in social media postings, and see inside the studio as the DJs broadcast live. The daylong activities will be mixed in with some fun as well, including a pizza party for lunch, a dance-off with the digital department, and if activities are too much, "Frozen" will be shown in the afternoon so everyone can take a break from it all. Cox Houston VP and market manager Mark Krieschen says, "This is our first year to implement the program in Houston. I can already feel the excitement in the air as the kids are making themselves right at home."

Parker and Wilson left WDFN in 1999 and jumped to CBS RADIO's WXYT-FM and held down the evening slot through 2006 when they exited the station. Woodward One CEO Weston Silver tells the Detroit News, "'Parker and the Man' is a proven commodity in Motown. We're thrilled to be able to put them back on the air. Sports fans will flock back to them because their show is both fun and informative."

What Are Clear Channel's Plans for AM Drive at WOR? With the departure of "DC101" morning host Elliot Segal from the air at Clear Channel news/talk WOR, New York has industry watchers speculating about the company's next move for the daypart. Mark Simone was in for Elliot today (2/18). Segal told his DC audience that he was not moving to New York after all and the company issued a statement saying, "After much thought and discussion it's clear that we'd have to make significant changes to ensure the show resonates as successfully with the NY audience as it does with Elliot's DC audience. And given Elliot's loyalty to his DC fans, we support his decision to continue to broadcast from Washington." This change is not that surprising. To many, the Elliot move seemed an odd pairing and some industry watchers tell TALKERS they thought – even with the chatter about Elliot moving to NYC – it was a temporary move. It seems Clear Channel wants to shake up the AM drive show and not go with another "typical conservative" morning host on WOR but the company also appears to want to go with a younger and local program. There are rumors that recently "retired from WPLJ" personality Scott Shannon is talking with WOR but at first blush, that would also seem to be an unusual hire.
Saga Launches Sports Talker in Ithaca. The new station – branded "98.7 The Buzzer" – is airing on translator W254 BF licensed to Ithaca and features programming from CBS Sports Radio Network.

Chet Osadchey is the vice president and market manager for Saga's Cayuga Radio Group and he tells the Central New York Business Journal that this is an "excellent" expansion of sports in the Ithaca market. "We are particularly excited about the Jim Rome show. For several years, we have received numerous requests to carry this show and now we are able to fulfill that goal. Jim's show is the most interactive, contemporary, and authentic in the sports radio arena."
America's Talk Radio Network to Debut. The start date for the programming being offered by new syndicator America's Talk Radio Network is March 1 and vice president of affiliations and programming Jon Patch (formerly of Business TalkRadio Network) says, "America's Talk Radio Network programming features full-service solutions for our hosts and transactional, educational, entertaining and exclusive content for our partnering stations."

2014 NMX: Lots About Branding, Not a Word About Benghazi
Holland Cooke
TALKERS Contributor
Media Consultant
LAS VEGAS — Historically, broadcasters and podcasters have been dismissive of each other. If you make your living talking on transmitters you might regard webcasters as a shadow medium, minor league hobbyists talking topics of insufficient appeal to warrant AM/FM distribution.
Conversely, some internet self-publishers regard AM radio's snap-crackle-pop and any transmitter's geographical and audio-only limitations – and radio's homogenized programming – as old school (though they sure do envy broadcasters' advertising sales).
That thing-in-your-pocket-we-used-to-call-a-phone is the hardware; and the burgeoning, enthused community that populates this particular convention is the software. As continuously as that hardware evolves, so does the software, and this event. A dozen years ago, in hard-copy TALKERS magazine, I reported from "The Podcast and Portable Media Expo," then the "Blogworld" it morphed into before re-branding as "New Media Expo" ("NMX").

Kudos to the Voice for reporting on one of the most stylish, philanthropically minded and talented women in this city. Amy, you are amazing!

I don't normally get around to reading my scientific journals until much later in the week … OK, never, but I did happen to read about new findings that low blood sugar can make husbands and wives behave aggressively toward one another.
According to the study, which was published in a journal I can't even pronounce so I will simply call it "The Journal of the Most Obvious Stuff in the Universe" it finds that when women are hungry, they are more likely to stick voodoo pins into a doll representing their husbands.
Naturally, when I read that, I thought they were speaking metaphorically. But no! Turns out the science community actually gave 107 married couples voodoo dolls and 51 pins each with instructions to stick a pin in the doll representing their spouse whenever they felt a, ha-ha, stab of hostility toward them.
It should be noted that some participants didn't use a single pin, even when blood sugar levels were low. These were, I'm guessing, Southern Baptist wives who think putting pins in voodoo dolls seems like it might be kinda satanic, a sin on a scale of "definitely worse than dancing" but "not quite as bad as watching "Naked and Afraid" even though it is on the Discovery Channel which is quasi-educational."
Scarier to me were the few participants who used all 51 pins when their blood sugar dipped and, I'm guessing here, offered to buy pins from the others so they could "finish what I've started."
As part of a longstanding and deeply held conviction about this column, I do not want to bore you with facts. But you should know that if you don't eat when you need to, your glucose levels will crash and this can lead to diminished self-control, which can lead to anger and a marked uptick in hateful behavior.
I believe we can all agree that the "take-away" from this study that probably cost many thousands of dollars is, if you're hungry, you should probably eat something. Thank you, science!
Of course there was more to the study than voodoo dolls. At the end of three weeks, participants were told they were going to play a game that lets you torment your spouse via headphone noises (dentist's drill, nails on chalkboard, anything by the Black Eyed Peas) based on how angry you were feeling toward them. Again, low blood sugar had spouses turning the volume on high. (Don't worry; they weren't really hooked up.)
This led scientists to decide that, and I am not making this up: "Food curbs aggression and this could be useful in prisons, psychiatric hospitals or schools." Since all three of those institutions are, apparently, equal.
Next time a fight breaks out in Cell Block 3 or ninth-grade gym class, just slingshot in some yeast rolls and all will be well.
Stay tuned next week when the science community discovers that wives hate it when their husbands drink milk directly from the carton.

Social media moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
So which trends are shaping the social space in 2014?
Read more
2012 has almost come and gone and, by all accounts – certainly in the social media space – it was a big year.
We had the social Olympic Games, a very social U.S. presidential election and, overall, social sharing increased by almost a full quarter (23 percent) on 2011.
Facebook saw a nice 18 percent growth bump, and Mark Zuckerberg's platform now accounts for a heady 51 percent of all shares. Twitter is 55 percent bigger than it was this time last year, and tallies 15 percent of all sharing. Even email (+17 percent, 9 percent of shares) and good, old-fashioned printing (+32 percent, 8 percent of shares) were up in 2012.
So, I guess the big question is: did anything go down?

The scale is moving down again. I guess I just had to get on board with all of my mind and all that other stuff. Anyway it is going in the right direction and I am not hungry and not craving a bunch of junk. Although there is this great pizza I could eat that is talking to me..... but I will leave it at the restaurant for now. Water goes down easily and I no longer am getting headaches from caffeine withdrawal from the diet coke. I do have diet coke free in the house which I use as a treat when I watch Kentucky play basketball or something exciting like that. (Can you tell how boring my life is??)
I do seem to have more energy but continue to be lazy most of the time. My attitude over all is positive and I am always in a good mood. I don't have any family here but I talk on the phone frequently to them. The phone is my link to my friends too. We gab a lot. I do have neighbors who visit in and out. So my life is not empty.
That's enough about me for now.
Don---you are too funny. If I dive in the lake I'll let you know first. LOL
Happy V Day to you all. I was surprised and overwhelmingly pleased to discover that the scale had nudged downward what I will consider to be 2 pounds. I was amazed but ecstatically pleased. I was about to throw this thing in the big pond and continue on my ride to the land of morbid morbid obesity. But alas I have now lost 9 pounds which is like a miracle and will spur me on for another week or two.
Last night I attempted for the third time to "upload "photos from my photo albums to this site without success. I know you think I don't want you to see my face but that is far from the truth. I can't get the darn thing to work for me. I need a teenager to mash the button and then I would have a dozen photos for you to see. If I have the patience I will attempt it again today..........
Have a wonderful day. Kiss and hug yourself and your significant other from me. Best to you all.
I'mstill here. Tracking my food but messing up when it comes to exercise. I know my calories are way below what they say I am supposed to eat but I can't get it through my mind that I am supposed to eat 1500 cal. It seems so counter intuitive and since I don;t exercise---well there you have it. I would weigh 300 lbs. I know I;m making excuses. Maybe I'll buy an exercise bike. Hum I'm getting a defeatist attitude. Not good. Not good. Maybe I'll feel better tomorrow...........
I usually don't complain about the weather because it is one of those things that you can't change but I really am getting tired of the snow. And I'm beginning to question those global warming folks if it is snowing all the time instead of the sun shining. Oh well a subject for another time.
There are some things I can change and one is my eating habits. I am grateful to report that I believe I am in the rut of eating breakfast each day. I worked midnight shift for many years and never ate breakfast or when I got up. This is the first time I have developed a habit of eating a meal after I have awakened.
The other thing I can change is my exercise routine. The weather has prevented me again from going to the gym so I walked/marched around my house and I thought the cat was going to go crazy. She thought the end of the world had come. I also found some of those exercise bands hiding in a drawer and now I just need to look at a video to make sure I'm using them correctly. When I'm stuck at home I will be able to exercise without scaring the poor cat to death.
Still no weight change. Of course I am not gaining. But I want the scale to move when I am documenting all my food. It is frustrating.
See you all tomorrow.
Last night I got hungry. I really was surprised. I guess I am so used to grazing all the time that I rarely feel hunger. When I first thought I was hungry I got a diet rite and drank that and the feeling went away but in about an hour I felt it again. Hunger. Wow. A strange feeling. So I went and got a piece of string cheese and ate that very slowly and then just went to bed.
My weight is still stuck at 260 which has always been my sabotage weight so I need to watch and make sure I an not just telling myself I need to eat more.
Today is also the super bowl. I love football so I am going to eat popcorn during the game to keep my mouth and hands busy and away from other junk although I'm not sure I even have any junk in the house. But I can always eat more good stuff that I don't need.

"I love how these pants show off my waist. And this sheer top with an interesting bodice is a cool throwback to '80s Madonna."
Big Banks Theory
With three major roles this year, Elizabeth Banks has officially evolved from funny-woman sidekick to full-fledged movie star. But she still loves a good bargain—and her comfy cowboy boots.
Elizabeth Banks and I are not on a trapeze. This is good. I was a bit worried, because flinging herself through the air is Banks' favorite workout, and she once persuaded some other idiot journalist to go with her. Anyone who
sees her in this month's Man on a Ledge, for which she did all her own stunts, knows that (a) Elizabeth Banks is fearless and (b) Elizabeth Banks likes heights. I do not. My motto is, Anything to get the story—with the possible exception of plummeting to my death.
Fortunately for me, this assignment is for Lucky. Which means that instead of hanging off high wires, we're at a swank New York hotel with beverages in front of us, talking about style and shopping. We're in my territory now, baby!
Banks doesn't seem to share my excitement. Frankly, she's exhausted. Not only has she been posing, primping, dressing and stripping at our cover shoot all day but she's pretty much been working nonstop for the past year. Best known for stealing scenes in movies and television shows like The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Zack and Miri Make a Porno and 30 Rock, Banks is about to come out with several new films, which will likely launch her into a whole new level of fame. She jetted in yesterday from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where she's producing Pitch Perfect, a comedy about the world of competitive a cappella singing; before that she was in Charlotte, North Carolina, filming the hugely anticipated Hunger Games; before that, it was Atlanta, for What to Expect When You're Expecting with Jennifer Lopez and Cameron Diaz. And throughout it all, she's been taking care of a new baby: In March 2011 she and her husband had a son, Felix, via gestational surrogate (her egg, his sperm, another woman's uterus). Banks' Halloween tweet: I totally rocked my "overtired working mom" costume. Complete with spit-up on shirt and a nap. And somehow, I still made it slutty.
"I am the least looked-after I've been in quite some time," Banks says, with a grin. "Normally for photo shoots I get a full wax, some tanning, a facial. But this time I've done nothing."
Of course, Banks' "nothing" is the average person's "Holy Mother of God, how does she look that good?" She has a face that seems to have a light permanently shining on it, even though we're practically in the dark. But her princessy exterior masks a quirky individuality; this woman relishes life's absurdities. On her Twitter page she calls herself Elizabeth Banks, Amateur Goofball. And in her role as Effie Trinket in next month's Hunger Games—based on the dystopian young adult trilogy that has a cult following of Twilight proportions—Banks collaborated with the producer and director to ensure that her character would be uniquely hideous. Playing the upbeat mentor to children who battle to the death on live television, she sports shaved eyebrows, cotton-candy hair and a bleached-white face that emphasizes every wrinkle. And then there's Banks' special contribution, the voice, which sounds like a demented '50s schoolmarm: "It's based on my heroes, Rosalind Russell in Auntie Mame and Katharine Hepburn in The Philadelphia Story."
Though she says she grew up in a house where the September Vogue was "like the Bible," Banks seems considerably happier discussing the books she's read ("Michael Pollan's In Defense of Food changed my life") than what she's wearing (J Brand jeans and a cozy Vince cashmere sweater from Barneys). "I was kind of late to the party," Banks explains. "I mean, I have always appreciated fashion. But I'm a girl who loves a bargain. I'll shop at Forever 21 and H&M." Online she loves Net-a-Porter and the discount-designer site gilt.com. As long as she doesn't have to pay retail, she says, she's there.
That's not to say that she avoids high-end designers. "I love Prada shoes. I cannot get enough of them," she says. "Or Valentino. I wore gold-studded Valentinos at the shoot today—they were amazing. I'm always impressed by the craftsmanship and beauty of shoes."
But to shop for anything even remotely outré, she says, she needs enablers. "I have friends who'll come in the dressing room and be, like, 'You need to have Helmut Lang leather jeggings!' 'Really, I do?' 'Yes!' 'Well, all right then!' "
At the moment she's in the market for a classic white Chanel jacket. Preferably on sale. A girl can dream.
Prada and Chanel were merely names in magazines when she was growing up, the eldest of four, in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. Her mother worked for a bank, her father for GE (a happy coincidence that Freud would have enjoyed, given her 30 Rock character Avery Jessup's passion for GE veep Jack Donaghy). She was never really a girly girl. "We played baseball and fixed cars, because that's what Dad liked to do with us," she says. Fun was "jamming a stick into a beehive and running." With a mess of frizzy curls and bad acne, she was not cheerleader-perfect. "I'm so glad those photos from the '80s haven't surfaced on the Internet yet!" she says.
Even so, Banks somehow managed to meet her future husband—writer and former investment banking analyst Max Handelman—on her very first day of college. "He looked like Jason Priestley in 90210, and he was wearing a vest with no shirt underneath, a look that was incredibly cool in the fashion world for about 10 minutes," she says. Today they run their own production company, Brownstone Productions, and work on scripts together. Their latest sale is a TV show called Dave's Dead: "It's a buddy comedy," Banks says. "It's basically Two and a Half Men but if Charlie Sheen were dead and constantly in a different body."
She and Handelman were "madly in love" from the outset, she says, "but it took a while for it to evolve into, 'Oh, I guess maybe we'll stay together forever.' You don't start dating someone at 18 and think, We're getting married and having babies."
But that's exactly what happened. The getting-married part was great; the baby-making part pretty much blew. The 38-year-old actress is very open about using a surrogate to achieve her dream of being a mother.
"It was a womb issue for me. Embryos wouldn't implant," she says. Banks is passionate and grateful about her own surrogacy experience. "It's a big leap, inviting this person into your life to do this amazing, important thing for you. And it's hard losing that kind of control. But our surrogate is so extraordinary, and she's still in our lives. She's like an auntie."
Banks beams as she flips open her phone to a photo of baby Felix, resplendent in an adorable blue tracksuit. "That's my little dude," she murmurs. "I hate being away from him for even 10 seconds."
When Banks projects a decade or so into
the future, she sees herself spending more time behind the camera, producing and perhaps even directing movies, than in front of it. And as for thrills? "My plan is that when Felix is 15, we'll go skydiving together," she says. "I mean, the guy is fierce and fearless, and I'm hoping he stays that way. Because I want to be that mom." That's right—not the glamour-puss, movie star, beauty icon mother. She gives me a slightly maniacal sidelong glance. "The one who takes her kid skydiving."

The Electric Bus with Unlimited RangeSee More
EPV has its origins in 1985, when one man set out to manufacture a new standard of tour and over the road coach, eventually bringing hundreds of quality vehicles to world markets. Unique and challenging design solutions are an EPV hallmark in coaches, satisfying special requirements and custom applications at every turn.
The EPV ECOCoach, designed and manufactured in the USA specifically for the US market, is a completely new design featuring EPV's tested and proven aluminum body construction and a fresh stainless steel chassis. The result is a next generation coach that is lighter, stronger, and more resilient than others in the marketplace. The ECOCoach is designed, manufactured and delivered in the USA.
The EPV Hybrid Electric Transit bus is the first commercial solution combining the advantages of a fully electric drive system with the convenience of diesel, CNG or LPG fuel. With industry leading features like standard plug-in charging and EPV's patented Zero Emissions Operation, The ECOSaver HEV provides unparalleled performance and value.
The ECOSaver possesses all the same qualities as the "fast charge" electric buses – the ability to accept rapid recharge and operate up to 20 miles on battery only – while incorporating one major advantage lacking in "fast charge" electric buses – the ability to provide continuous, uninterrupted service while the batteries are being recharged. "Fast charge" buses, however, are slow when required to stop for 5-15 minutes to recharge.
EPV's EV bus goes back to the first All Electric Transit Bus capable of extended daily operation, deployed in 2007. The current generation, known as the ECOSmart, remains 100% zero emission and is capable of running 100 miles in routine transit service on a single charge. EPV believes this capability is unique in the industry for proven, production-ready electric vehicles.
Due to the common design between the EcoSmart and the EcoSaver, the vehicles have many similar benefits and advantages. The EcoSmart, however, outstrips even the industry leading ECOSaver with proven fuel economy equivalent of up to 18.8 miles per gallon in service, and charging costs below $8 per day!
We believe EPV Corporation is an excellent place to work and we will strive to constantly improve our working conditions for all of our employees. To search for available opportunities, please visit our Career Search page

You might be wondering why Denzel Washington would ever decide to take on a movie based on an '80s TV show. But when it comes to "The Equalizer," the actor only cared about one thing.

Maroon 5 Performs "Maps" on America's Got Talent
Yes, I'm bias. Because I'm the world's biggest Maroon 5 fan. But I loved this performance.
Yes, I'm bias. Because I'm the world's biggest Maroon 5 fan. But I loved this performance.
"Baby, I'm preying on you tonight," Adam Levine promises in the sultry first seconds of Maroon 5's latest single, 'Animals.'
Maroon 5 just dropped their newest single, 'Maps' -- the first single from their upcoming album, 'V.' Listen here!
Sadly, this SNL skit never aired, but it's one of the funniest we've seen in a long time. It features Adam Levine as himself, taking on a slew of other musicians in a good old fashioned rumble.
Get ready, Maroon 5 fans! The band has announced a new series of 31 concert dates featuring opening acts Neon Trees and Owl City, and frontman Adam Levine promises that the early 2013 tour will be his group's most ambitious yet.
It's here, you guys! Maroon 5's video 'One More Night' was just released and now we get to bask in some shirtless Adam Levine ambiance. Also, we were totally right about what we thought was going on in the vid based on the behind the scenes look — 10 points for Gryffindor!
'One More Night,' the second single from Maroon 5's 'Overexposed' (out June 26) is just dropping, while the first single 'Payphone' remains in the Top 5 of the radio chart leaderboad. It's certainly the familiar pop-rock sound that we've come to experience and expect from Adam Levine and his bandmates. But there's a bit of a reggae style infused into the percussion, giving the song a more dancey feel.

Things have been very active in our lives recently, after years of just very occasional strange events. A few weeks ago, I saw a UFO, a silver orb just as clear as you please in the early morning. A couple of days later, I discovered that 2 friends saw a series of orange orbs rising up out of Santa Monica Bay on that night or the next. Then there was a noisy visitation here last week which woke Anne up but left me with 2 hours of missing time.
Last night, Anne was awakened by a crash in the night. She couldn't find anything wrong, but the next morning we discovered that the heavy glass sliding door that leads to our deck was off its rail, which has never happened before. The crash came from a plaque falling over on a bookcase in our den. Above that bookcase, hanging on the wall, is the oil painting of the 'Communion face' that was used as the cover of the original book. The painting was askew, as if somebody had grabbed it, then left it hanging off to one side.
We are constantly hearing breathing, sighs, taps, the sound of footsteps--it's now very much like it was back when we had our old cabin in the late eighties.
This time, though, I'm not afraid at all, and neither is Anne. She's not sleeping through everything, either, but rather hearing and noticing things. So far, no direct face-to-face exchanges, but I hope that will come, frankly.
This is a very sacred, intense time in our lives, and the deep holiness of love is very evident to both of use. We feel very blessed in our marriage, and in this extraordinary life we have been privileged to live, right on the frontier of the human future.
At present, the close encounter experience is ignored, scorned, laughed at and rejected, but, in fact, in the future it will come to the center of human life, and be recognized as the single most important human experience since man first looked up at the starry night in wonder.
Whitley, I remember this quote from an old biblical movie. "Only when you have been sufficiently purged, can I enter in." Perhaps YOU and ANNE have reached that place. If so, it feels like you both have certainly earned it.
"...the close encounter experience...will come to the center of human life, and be recognized as the single most important human experience..."
Whitley, I listen to what you say and read your writing with immense interest and respect. But we don't always agree. Your last line about the close encounter experience, I suspect, elevates what is a poorly understood and often peculiarly hostile experience, into something it is not. Birth, death, marriage, love and learning are, for me, among the most important human experiences. I think we know far too little about the Visitors or the close encounters to say what they truly are, much less to say that they are a vastly important human experience.
Further seems much closer now than at anytime I can recall. Reading about Mr and Mrs Strieber's proximity to the transformed doesn't surprise me, rather it confirms what is happening my end too.
I've been so tired these past months. Purposely working long hours to prove some vague point to myself and oh, the obsession with creating complex networks with computers. The code, the inter-connectivity, the ability to enjoy flashes of instant insight into complex problem solving that normally seems to unobtainable. All flows so easily and yet there is also the rather obvious presence of others around me.
I lost a beloved Aunt last Christmas eve and another Aunt (her sister) in the last few weeks. I heard a phone ringing for four days after the latter Aunt passed and slowly, her voice calling my name has grown stronger and louder. Last weekend, I could hear her loud as day and toward the end of last week, whilst driving, very very tired, noticed a woman sitting in the passenger seat for a split second.
Her form was mainly human but there was a difference, her body had a slightly armoured look.. that is... she resembled a machine, ever so slightly, as if her Human form had been improved somewhat. She looked straight ahead and I'm sure she helped me stay awake and avoid falling asleep. Her form possessed power... not brilliance as others describe, more an intensity of form that we lack in this bodily shell.
Was it my Aunt? I'm not sure, I honestly don't know. If it was that was one heck of a transformation in a few weeks but who knows. Gut instinct tells me that it was a protector: one who has protected me for so long, in spite of my stubbornness and pride.
So, every time I read Mr Strieber's accounts of the thuds, breathing and knocks going on at the moment, I know how they must be feeling.. free. Maybe my time to depart for pastures new is soon; I don't know, but if it is, then I'm happy to accept the change. I had a second vision of a nuclear detonation here in Britain recently. The first one was three years or so back and was either East London or a town called Luton... not sure.. This recent vision was almost certainly Oxford or very near Oxford. I hope none of this happens, as Oxfordshire is such a luscious county.. what a disgrace such an event would be (especially just to revive economic dynasties).
I apologise, I ramble, or maybe not. My heart, for what it's worth is with Mr and Mrs Strieber, all their silent helpers and all those who have come to embrace UnknownCountry.Com and Dreamland as a way of life.
Change is coming for all of us and it's now, rather than sooner.

SalesVu, Inc., the only provider of a cloud-based mobile payment application, announced today it has closed $600 thousand in a recent round of angel investment funding. Designed to significantly improve payment processing for the growing mobile workforce, the SalesVu solution is the first iPhone and iPad application to accept payments and connect to a secure cloud-based infrastructure for centralized pricing management, reporting, and marketing.
This infusion of financing will fuel the company's product development and marketing initiatives, allowing the company to educate the market on the benefits of its cloud-based infrastructure and set itself apart from competitive terminal-based mobile payment vendors such as Square and Intuit.
"SalesVu offers a fresh approach to mobile payment processing, with a comprehensive solution that seamlessly integrates operations, management, and marketing," said Francisco Leon, SalesVu investor. "SalesVu's product also addresses the real needs of today's workforce – mobility, reporting, scalability and security – making SalesVu a compelling alternative for businesses investing in mobile payment solutions."
The SalesVu application allows mobile workers to securely process credit card transactions on iPhones or iPads. The company sends a free card reader to businesses who choose to process credit cards directly from their mobile device, and offers the industry's lowest rate (2.7%) on all credit card transactions.
The unique cloud-infrastructure behind the SalesVu application allows businesses to manage their entire sales process anywhere – update pricing, products, services, customer data, and automatically beam the changes to mobile devices in the field. Businesses can also monitor mobile transactions and spot sales trends by employee, product, or time of day, gathering significant marketing insight with SalesVu's reporting capabilities.
In addition to its operational benefits, SalesVu's patent-pending technology integrates with Facebook allowing businesses to share deals and generate buzz through their own customer network. The elegance of the SalesVu solution allows it to be more than just a terminal mobile payment app, instead offering the industry's first complete end-to-end mobile payment solution.

JDBC driver type 3 -- the net-protocol/all-Java driver -- follows a three-tiered approach whereby the JDBC database requests are passed through the network to the middle-tier server. The middle-tier server then translates the request (directly or indirectly) to the database-specific native-connectivity interface to further the request to the database server. If the middle-tier server is written in Java, it can use a type 1 or type 2 JDBC driver to do this. Pros

Happy Easter
Well it may not be Spring weather at the moment but Easter is still my favourite time of year.It is bitterly cold here in N,Yorks but at least it's dry and we have seen glimpses of the sun for more than three seconds.
On Easter Sunday it is my 29th wedding anniversary and on that date in 1984 it snowed after the wedding photos had been taken and didn't stop until lunchtime the next day, so this type of weather is obviously cyclical and not as freaky as everyone seems to think.Anyway whatever the weather I hope Easter finds you with those you love and brings you happiness, relaxation and maybe a little chocolate.
Anne x
This is my favourite teaset of the moment.Definitely the perfect anniversary present..........

Looking for opinions on streaming SlingBox to AppleTV
For those of you who use your iOS device and AppleTV to watch your SlingBox, what do you think? Are there any devices that seem to work better? Would you say the backgrounding works well? Thanks!
|Sep 17, 2014, 01:29 PM
Mixed bag, but love slingbox
I have a slingbox PRO-HD & a slingbox 350 at separate locations. I've used both the iphone 5 slingbox app and the ipad air slingbox app to airplay both streams to my atv3.
Specifically to your question, backgrounding is seamless. Multiple times, I airplayed World Cup games this summer from my ipad, while simultaneously reading, looking up stats, etc. From both the iphone and the ipad, the picture is very crisp. Buffering is an issue, but that has more to do with network speeds, up & down.
However, the model of the slingbox you use, will affect your airplay capabilities. I have no problems with the 350 stream being airplayed from either the iphone or ipad. The PRO-HD stream is another story. The iphone stretches the screen horizontally(takes a 16:9 image and stretches it even more) and the ipad squishes the screen horizontally (takes a 16:9 image and makes it 4:3).
It kinda drives me nuts having to use multiple remotes/devices to control what I'm watching on my tv, so I don't really use airplay for slingbox. My understanding is that slingplayer for roku operates similarly (ie you need an iphone or ipad in conjunction with the app). So I looked for other connected solutions.
Currently I'm using WDTV Live because it has a slingplayer app built in, no airplay necessary. This allows me to use one remote, Harmony Ultimate, to navigate through the slingplayer app while still controlling the tv, receiver, etc. without picking up another remote/device. I can also program favorite channels on the touchscreen, negating the need to navigate clumsily through the cable providers program guide.
Boxee Box was great as well for streaming, but it had a Wifi/RF remote (can't remember which), which doesn't work with my universal remote. It was definitely the best streamer I've used though.
I've looked into this stuff a ton (probably too much)

|Sep 17, 2014, 03:53 PM
They kind of buried the information, but there's actually a few boxes which are or were supported:
Boxee Box (1st Gen)
WDTV Live (I have the one released spring 2014)
WDTV Hub
WDTV Play
Netgear NeoTV
Sony Internet Player with Google TV (NSZ-GS7 GTV)
AppleTV via airplay
Roku via smartphone app
Chromecast via handoff
I don't want to hype the WDTV Live too much. I only use it for Slingbox. It's pretty worthless otherwise and it takes a long time to boot up.
Do you have a slingbox already or are you looking into getting one?
|Sep 17, 2014, 08:28 PM
What seems nice about the WDTV Live is the ability to control SlingBox from the remote, but I'm not too familiar with the iOS Slingbox app's controls. If they aren't bad, maybe just streaming to an AppleTV wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. At least one of those can do some other things. Although from the looks of this forum, the 3rd generation AppleTV looks like a nightmare.
