Warm Thanks to everyone who purchased from the artisans and helped make their Christmas Season bright! :)
AHA MEDIA at Wiring the Social Economy at W2 Storyeum in Vancouver
Wiring the Social Economy is an all day event organized to bring diverse professional groups together to create shared understanding of goals and challenges and to discover possibilities for collaborations.
We're inviting all community economic development practitioners, social enterprise operators and supporters, community organizations, and members of the social media and technology communities to join us Dec 4th in the heart of Vancouver. Each of these professional groups has organizations, events, and conferences to offer support within their communities. The challenge is the low level of social capital between the groups. The goal of Wiring the Social Economy is to cross-pollinate ideas on challenges, solutions, and best practices between these communities of practice.
Wiring the Social Economy is a project initiated by Steve Williams. Steve works with SAP's Corporate Social Responsibility team for Global Technology Donations at the intersection of sustainability, CSR, non-profit and social enterprise, and community economic development. The conference intends to build on themes developed during the recent Vancouver ChangeCamp, namely: How can we help government become more open and responsive to citizens? How can we as citizens organize to get better outcomes ourselves?
We believe that by working together within the principles of community economic development – equity, diversity, collaboration, participation – we collectively have the potential to generate, and accelerate, sustainable community development.
Keynote Speakers:
Carol Madsen
Carol is the Program Manager at Pathways Information Centre in the Four Corners Community Economic and Business Development Building in the downtown eastside of Vancouver, and an instructor at the SFU Centre for Sustainable Community Development. Carol is a passionate speaker and a deep believer in CED principles – she is active on several community boards including the Canadian CED Network, Network of East Vancouver Community Organizations and the Network of Innercity Community Services Society.
Tim Beachy
Tim is the CEO of United Community Services Co-op, a co-operative dedicated to supporting community-based organizations in BC to collaborate where there is public good from their joint action. Tim has over 30 years of experience working with community and non-profit organizations, and believes deeply in co-operative action and preserving the "delicate ecology" of a diverse and thriving community. His hope is that the non-profit sector continues to work in increasingly innovative ways by using technology to enhance face-to-face relationships, and that the non-profit sector recognizes the clout it holds.
Irwin Oostindie
Irwin, the Executive Director of W2, is a Dutch/Canadian artist and administrator doing cultural planning, cultural infrastructure development, and support for a media arts cluster in Vancouver's inner-city. He is well-versed in social enterprise, having contributed to the building of a coffee house in W2 that trains and employs local residents. Irwin is notable for making great use of technology to connect, encourage, and champion local arts and culture.

AHA MEDIA from Vancouver Downtown Eastside is very proud to be featured in Robert Matas' article "Clustering In Action" in "The Globe and Mail" National newspaper
Clustering in action
Robert Matas
Vancouver — From Saturday's Globe and Mail Published on Friday, Dec. 18, 2009 10:13PM EST
AHA Media is a struggling new company incubated in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside by a government-funded agency that turned to theories of a Harvard University professor more often associated with Silicon Valley and Hollywood than with revitalization of urban slums.
April Smith, one of the company's founders, drifted into the Downtown Eastside after a serious car accident left her with severe memory loss and other injuries. With no money, she ended up living in temporary shelters and hotels dominated by predator pimps and drug addicts, she said recently in an interview.
Her life changed after she began cartooning to tell the stories of people she met at the hotel and on the street. A local community group inspired her to think about reporting activities in her neighbourhood without going through traditional media. She became part of an apprenticeship program developed by a cluster of local companies. After completing the program, she worked with others to open a new business in the area, AHA Media.
Prof. Michael Porter has written extensively about the advantages of clustering as an approach to economic development. Concentrating interconnected companies, specialized suppliers and associated educational institutions in the same geographic area fosters increased employment, productivity and innovation, he said. The clusters become a catalyst for innovation that feeds economic growth.
Building Opportunities with Business, a government-funded agency, dedicated to revival of the local economy, embraced clustering at the suggestion of an ex-board member who had studied at Harvard.
Ms. Smith was part of a training program developed by a cluster that included Bell Canada, the FireHall Arts Centre, a local digital filmmaking program that works with youth at risk called Intersections Media, a B.C. government employment program called BladeRunners and a non-profit group working in social media called W2: Community Media Arts.
The training program "gave me a big, big start," she said. "It gave me a sense of direction."
Ms. Smith is now on Twitter, Facebook, Youtube and Flickr. She describes herself as a mobile new-media videographer and social media content-producer. She shoots camera-phone videos and live-streams events onto the Internet.
To speak with April Smith more personally
To see more of AHA MEDIA:
Clustering pushes local businesses to think how they can work together, BOB's chief executive officer, Shirley Chan, said. But, unlike Silicon Valley, the Downtown Eastside businesses do not have resources to carry out many of their ideas.
"Many employers here are marginal, they do not have a lot of money. That is why they are here. The rent is cheap," she said. " Without finding sources of funding, there is not a lot that can be created."
AHA MEDIA wishes to thank the following :)

Co-Working Opportunities are available at BOB.
To further our mission we would like to make available to select partners, individuals, and businesses the main floor of 163 East Pender Street. We hope that this open shared work space can contribute to the revitalization of the inner-city by providing a space for creative professionals to flourish, for ideas to percolate, to cross pollinate, for businesses to grow, a place where stuff gets done.
What we're offering is a work surface, be it a desk, a chair, a table, a couch, or the bay window, wherever you're most comfortable.
Of course we'll offer wi-fi and other niceties such as an electronic white board and a projector to facilitate discussion and creative thinking. There's a fridge for your food, a microwave, filtered water cooler, and secure storage for your bike.
The price is a flat $200 per month and includes keyless access.
We're looking for creative professionals, progressive thinkers, the socially responsible and ecologically conscious who want to be surrounded by others of like mind.
Folks who want more than a cubicle and a 9 to 5 and dream of bigger things and a better Vancouver to call home.
If this sounds like you, contact Andrew "Muskie" McKay 778-328-7672 or write firstname.lastname@example.com
AHA MEDIA is very proud to present "With Glowing Hearts" – a documentary on social media and W2 Community Media Arts Centre in the Vancouver Downtown Eastside
Animal Mother Films invites you to join us for a drink and exclusive preview from the film at the official launch party for the website for our documentary project With Glowing Hearts. We continue to capture the pressures facing Vancouver's Downtown Eastside as the city prepares to host the Winter Olympics next February, and how a remarkable group of individuals is using cutting edge social media technologies to empower their community.
WGH-is a story about a revolution, one of social change and a paradigm shift in media representation. Vancouver sets the stage, against the backdrop of the 2010 Winter Games, for our documentary about a marginalized community embracing social media tools to empower, inspire and breakdown the digital divide.
This is a project that Andrew Lavigne is directing and is being produced by animalmotherfilms.com. Shot on various capture devices including the Red, the HVX 200, the 5D MkII and the Nokia N77 cellphone. We began shooting Feb/2009 and will continue through March/2010.
Director Andrew Lavigne and Producer Jon Ornoy are now 9 months into production, charting the inspiring story of the creation of the W2 Media Arts Center as part of the Woodward's redevelopment and the vital steps towards breaking down the digital divide that will take place within its walls.
With the launch of wghthemovie.ca, our Facebook presence and the Games only a few months away, we're excited to throw the doors wide open and let you have a look inside.

5 Fashion Items That Are Worth a Splurge and 4 That Arent
Shop for clothes knowing which ones should cost a lot and which shouldn't
By Alina Dizik
Save 3: Formal Dresses
You don't have to blow your budget on special occasions. In fact, most women wear formal dresses so rarely that it's impossible to get any bang for your buck, says Meknat. Instead, splurge on more casual, versatile dresses that easily can be worn under a blazer or dressed up with jewelry.

Good leather. The magnet it's strong enough. Good protection when placing the tablet in a surface. For the price the quality is ok. Not very good for of the leverage!

For the price the quality is good. The material is in ok quality and the products fits the ipad just fine. The service and expedition time was excellent in addition to the information flow on the order and its status and progress. Had hoped for a bit more protection if e.g. my son drop the ipad. It is ...

Good protection when placing iPad on it and any surface. It is very easy to put on. Good looking, similar than the original and, of course, cheaper than the apple original. It does not look cheap and really protects your iPad, and now there are a lot of colors and designs. Buenas proteccion cuando los ... Read more
Very slik kind of leather really nice done. The Ipad fits perfectly. When you close the case the Ipad goes automatic in sleep stand. But this isn't happening when you fold the case open.

Magnets strong enough to activate sleep/wake up function in front, but not so strong to activate it wrongly in the back (putting the iPad to sleep when you are working with it).

The casing is sleek and light, feels not too bad even though is PU material. There's a magnet at the sleep position, which is able to sleep/wake the ipad2, and it is not too strong that when it is flip open all the way, it doesn't sleep the ipad2, unlike some other casing the camera cutout is a little ...

Not bad, it's sleek and light and fits my ipad 2 well. It even has a magnetic sleep function, which I'm not sure was intentional (because it looks like it was just to close the case) but it works, so that's great.

"I made this with those little "Cuties" mandarin oranges that were about to turn, and rehydrated craisins. I had 3/4 c orange juice, and 1/4 c heavy cream to bind everything together then placed in a bundt pan. Yummmmmmy."
"Incredible, easy, crispy, and chewy. I will make these again, and again. I make these for my church newcomers, and get many requests."
"I'm sorry, but I wasn't crazy about this recipe. I followed the recipe exactly, and it came out too dry for my taste. I'm an avid baker, and this just didn't hit the mark."
"Fyi, this also makes a great wrinkle releaser for clothing, and works wonders for ironing. I don't like the stiffness of starch, so this leaves your clothes nice and soft and smellin' good!"
"If I could give it more, I would! Of course, I made some modifications as I can't just leave well enough alone. Here is what I did...
Regular yellow cake instead of the pineapple cake (cheaper)
Fage 0 Greek yogurt instead of the oil (lower fat and creamier consistency)
Yum yum yum! Thanks Elaine for this recipe! A keeper for s..."
"I am giving it less stars because it wasn't what I was expecting. It was good, just not what I was hoping for. It tasted to me kind of like marshmallows.
I did however add some peanut butter, espresso powder, and baileys to some of the recipe and topped some chocolate espresso cupcakes with it. SOOOOO GOOOOOD!!!!!"
"I personally did not care for this recipe, but had several taste testers who enjoyed it."
"Incredibly surprised! For someone who does not like diet anything at all.... these are really, very good, and moist! Wow!!!I like the devil's food cake, and diet cherry pepsi combo myself, although, this is closer to two points if making 24 cupcakes.I also did the same with strawberry cake, and decreased the amount of soda(diet strawberry) ..."
"Took these to Superbowl Sunday, everyone loved em... I used 1 1/2 pkg cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and fresh basil."
"Very very good, took it to a Thanksgiving potluck, and it was wonderful. It is a thin soup wich I like! THanks for the great, easy recipe. I added a dash of Italian seasoning and some cayenne for a little boost of flavor."

Psychiatric research has long focused on the study of neuroendocrinology in an effort to consolidate our understanding of the human brain and behavior. It has been established that abnormalities of certain hormones, in particular thyroid hormone, can contribute to our understanding of the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of psychiatric disorders. However, with the exception of untreated congenital hypothyroidism, little research has been dedicated to the role of thyroid hormones on the etiology of childhood psychiatric disorders. Thyroid Diseases of Infancy and Childhood: Effects on Behavior and Intellectual Development effectively summarizes the current data on this subject.
Authored by highly experienced clinicians, the book presents this state-of-the-art information in two parts. The first section lays the foundation for understanding through an overview of thyroid hormone physiology and function. The second section reviews neurodevelopmental and behavioral consequences of thyroid diseases in infancy and childhood, with an emphasis on two congenital thyroid diseases — congenital hypothyroidism and resistance to thyroid hormone — as well as acquired thyroid diseases of childhood. The book's final chapter examines the role of environmental toxicants on the health and behavior of children.
By examining the consequences of thyroid diseases, clinicians can gain greater insight into various psychiatric disorders of childhood, such as attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and learning disabilities.
This book serves as a comprehensive report on the behavioral and developmental effects of thyroid diseases in children and infants.
American Psychiatric Publishing
The book contains black-and-white illustrations.

Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter Reviews
I love it!!!I have been looking for a great lip tint that is moisturizing but offers subtle color that's buildable, and Revlon got it right. I think this is a great product for those who are lip gloss addicts, like me, that want to venture into lipsticks but want to ease their way into it. — 2 years, 9 months agodarkangel81 | 301 reviews

Creme Brulee!!Creme Brulee is the best shade that I can find in the drug store. It is a nude shade that is not too "dead" looking or too peach or too pink. I'm so sensitive that 90% of lipstick scents bother me, but this one is so subtle that it will not offend you. It smells like a hint of vanilla, (like a creme brulee!) and usually vanilla is an offensive scent for me, like most asians, but this one is toler...read moreable. It applies like a balm, so soft, smooth, and efforless, and has a shiny finish. It doesn't last, but who cares when everything else is perfect. Balms are appropriate to reapply in public, whereas lipsticks are not, so this one is a sneaky way i can apply lipsticks by swiping it on like a lip balm. You can't go wrong with this one. It's great in winter because this one helped heal my chapped lips by providing lots of moisture and protected my lips, I did't have to sacrifice pigments for healing balms this winter. This one beats the competitors balms that came out around the same time too. Thank you Revlon, finally doing lipsticks right. — 2 years, 8 months agoMakeupGuru | 444 reviews

Great quick lip colorThe lip butters are very high on the hype. There is a reason. They are pigmented, moisturizing and easy to use. They have some really great colors and they last a decent amount of time. Application feels good, and you want to reapply - even if you are lazy like me about reapplying lipstick. They are at a good price and Revlon often has bogo offers. I need more colors! — 2 years, 5 months agoTaylerbootz | 126 reviews

Smooth lipsI like this. It keeps the lips soft with a nice hint of color. I do have to reapply often but that's with any lip product for me. I also really like the smell of it for some reason. — 2 years, 6 months agoNicole1021 | 210 reviews

I want all of them!!I feel myself becoming obsessed with these haha. I have only 3 but I really like them and I want more! I have peach parfait, crème brulle, and cupcake (I'm not crazy about cupcake though), but I love how smooth they feel, they are not sticky, they don't smell strong or taste bad, and the colors look great.

They also last a while too, not for like a whole day though but I don't think they are made for that they are not like a lip stain or something but they did last after eating so that was impressive :) The way that they moisturize is also a big plus for me because when I have lipstick on or even some lip glosses my lips can start to peel, but not with these on! I don't really like bright colors on myself so these colors are perfect. Not too bright and not too sheer, and some shine too, just right! The price is not bad either I got mine at Rite Aid for buy 1 get one 50% off! And I believe at Walmart they are about 6 dollars.

Perfect for Summer!I was hesitant to try this lip butter at first just because I don't really care for the packaging, but I went ahead and got 'Juicy Papaya' because I've been hearing so many great things about this particular color, I just had to see for myself what the big deal was.

Awesome!!!I wasn't quite sure how I felt about this even though I bought this a month ago. I decided to give it some time so I can debate what I rate it. At first I thought it might be like other lipsticks I have used and to be quite frankly honest, I can't tell a good lipstick from a bad lipstick.

I love the color deposit. I have this in Fig Jam and even though the color looks extremely dark it was actually the right amount of color on my lips.

My lips are still surprisingly moisturized and the color is still there.

Really nice!Not SUPER AWESOME, but really nice. I just got this in Berry Smoothie (lush, medium-bright pink). The texture is somewhat rich, not as smooth or "buttery" as I expected. You do have to build up the color with at least two coats. And the color I got is glittery, which I would not have bought had it been more obvious in the packaging. Wrong color for my skin tone - and too much glitter for my big 'o...read morel lips - so I took it off immediately. The taste and scent are of a really faint vanilla sugar, almost unnoticeable. I'll probably try this again in another color. Great product, but I'm not sold on the hype. Clinique's Buttershine Lipstick is much nicer, but for a drugstore try, this works. Update: Just bought another one in Fig Jam and I'm still on the fence. I want to rave about this but just can't. I suppose it's just choosing the wrong one for me or the final color being a bit different than the packaging suggests? My final take: the formula is really smooth to apply, the colors need lots of building to get the desired shade and once you do, it's doesn't last. (Except for the glitter!) I guess it's good, but I've gotta bring this one down to a 7 rating. Still really nice, but not super-awesome. — 2 years, 6 months agonycmuse | 136 reviews

Lip butter bursts with color!i'm a fan of this drugstore find! i was a skeptic at first – the ads promised "beautiful shiny color" and "baby soft, healthy glowing lips", claiming that "94% of women felt lips were softer, smoother, and instantly hydrated." personally, i've found that rich, long-lasting color lipstick usually leave my lips parched and dry; i've taken to adding a layer of lip balm prior to us...read moreing any lipstick. and tinted lip balms (e.g. burt's bees, clinique's almost lipstick) are usually too sheer and subtle. i wanted more color than my standard gloss, so i thought i'd give this a try…and i'm sold! i'm currently using #085 sugar plum, which is just a touch darker than my natural lip color, with a slight shimmer. it glides on smoothly, thanks to the "hydrating mango, shea and coconut butter formula"; it's a "gel formula" and i swear it gets softer/silkier with each application. it provides sheer to medium coverage; you can layer for more color, but it's definitely not as color-saturated as emma stone's pucker in the ad campaign. my lips feel moisturized but not sticky, and the color actually lasts pretty well. although not a "colorstay" product, even after morning coffee and lunch, there's still a subtle trace of color – and definitely soft suppleness. no need for lip balm anymore – this lip butter definitely hydrates and softens as promised. there are about 20 colors available, mostly nudes, pinks and corals – perfect for amping up your "natural makeup" daytime look. if you're looking for a dramatic bright red lip a la marilyn monroe, try something else. if you have dry, chapped lips and still want a richly-pigmented lipstick with decent coverage and lasting power, try this lip butter. i've even saved time from my make-up routine now that i can skip the lip balm! ::UPDATE:: recently purchased a brighter brownish-red shade #040 red velvet; it's super richly pigmented - i only need one layer for a bright pucker. they've broadened the array of hues to choose from and this has replaced my usual revlon colorstay rum raisin in my makeup bag!

Just AlrightI'm suprised this has such positive reviews. I saw the case in stores and thought it was cool, I had lost my beige color and thought I'd try this collection's sand color. The product went on smoothly and felt soft but that is about the only positive thing I can say about it aside from the cool case. It came off rather quickly and the color ittself wasn't that bright to begin with. I'm overall unimpressed by it and would not buy another one. — 1 year, 6 months agomoriarty.kt | 213 reviews

My Reasons for Reporting This


text:
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
A ute muster is an Australian festival which brings together large numbers of utes and their owners. These events typically include competitions and other side events, occur annually, and normally last several days and are held in rural and regional areas of Australia.
These events can be seen as a more rural version of the Summernats, a festival which promotes a wider range of car culture.
The Caboolture Urban Country Music Festival, which features a "Beaut Ute" competition, is a country music festival established in 2004.
Often ute musters are combined with a larger festival such as a rodeo, agricultural show or music festival, and are usually sponsored by companies which are local to where the muster is being held.
Ute musters are often mis-represented as being attended by yobbos who just like to drink, this is no longer the case, but instead an outlet for enthusiastic ute owners to show off their pride and joy in their vehicles which are personalised with lights, stickers, bull bars, and various after-market add-ons. They are generally held to raise money for towns, charities and local causes, and have run in conjunction with agricultural shows or Bachelor and Spinster Balls which raise money for local charities.
The Deniliquin Ute Muster is the largest event of its kind in the world. It is a stand-alone event which began as a celebration of all things Australian and the Aussie icon of the ute, and has developed into a two-day festival, with live music concerts, ute driving competitions, the Australian National Circle Work Championships TM, show and shine arena, and bull ride.
Ute enthusiasts tend to have an obsession with bumper stickers, often covering the entire rear window of the ute with them. Accumulating the most different stickers is a sort of status symbol which is often the deciding factor in many of the Beaut Ute competitions (see below). Some of the popular stickers are Bundaberg Rum, Holden, Jim Beam, Ute Muster and the Conargo Pub.
The event itself involves a congregation of ute enthusiasts who enter their utes in a number of competitions, sometimes referred to as a Beaut Ute Competition. Some of the typical categories are:
Other categories are also included and run on the day these are called novelty categories and normally take a side step from the general categories to make a bit of fun to fill in the day. some novelty categories include:
Most of the ute muster events around Australia try to compete with each other by continually breaking new records of gathering the most number of vehicles in the one place.
However, that mantle has been claimed by Deniliquin which previously held a small ute show as part of its annual Pastoral and Agricultural Show, but developed the idea into a tourist-attracting event. In 1999 a group of community-minded people got to gether with the idea of celebrating all things Australian, including the Aussie icon of the ute, to attract people to the agricultural town of Deniliquin, located in the southern Riverina region of New South Wales. In its first year, the event held a Guinness Book of Records count of the largest parade of legally registered utes in the world, and each year new records are broken. In 1999, 2839 drivers took part,[1] establishing Deniliquin as the ute capital of the world. Since that time, the event has grown in popularity and each year breaks its existing world record. As of 2010, Deniliquin's current record stands at 8,152 utes, with over 25,000 attendees in a town that normally has a population of about 8000. The Deniliquin Ute Muster also holds a record count for most number of people wearing blue singlets - in 2010 that Guinness Book of Records count stands at 3500 people. In 2013, a new ute record of 9,736 was set and a new blue singlet record of 3,924 was counted.
Ute musters are often held to help raise funds for local charities, such as raising funds for local schools or hospitals. Often the ute musters are associated with local groups such as Apex or Rotary. They are seen as a good drawcard to bring in money from participants who are not members of the local community - so all money spent is extra money for the local community, whether it goes to the local charity, or just to the local economy.
Musters are often held in conjunction with local agricultural shows. This will assists organisers in arranging advertising, insurance and other sponsorship. It can also assist in obtaining the cooperation of local emergency services such as police and ambulance, if the muster is one aspect of a larger, previously established local event.
Most ute musters charge a relatively small fee for participants, allowing them to enter any category they are qualified for. Most participants would enter between five to ten categories, as this keeps the event proceeding. Many participants travel long distances to enter and prefer activities to be held in a short timeframe to allow them to join in other parts of the festival.
Well organised events cater for camping. As this is a usual festival environment drawing participants from large distances in country areas there are limited opportunities for public transport. Both competitors and other participants often make extensive use of any bar facilities; in many events the bar provides a large portion of the funds raised. Well organised events provide for camping as often the most practical accommodation for all concerned.
Whilst larger musters can annoy some locals, this is seen as the exception rather than the rule. Most musters attract between 20-100 utes, depending upon event advertising. Commonly, musters also have maximum numbers permitted to attend - this is often a requirement in obtaining event permits.
Event committees need to liaise carefully with local law enforcement. The muster held at Deniliquin is a good example of close relationships with NSW Police. Whilst the organisers recognise that some attendees can flout the law, this is seen as a minority and the event is able to proceed in a realistic environment. This achieves the event's goals of fundraising and ensures participants are able to enjoy the event.
There are annual ute musters including:

price increase,
merchant bar,
structural products,
CHICAGO At least two major mills have announced plans to boost long products prices in response to a rebound in domestic scrap tags.
Nucor Corp. said it plans to increase net prices on reinforcing bar, merchant bar and structural bar products by $35 per ton ($1.75 per hundredweight) effective with Dec. 1 shipments.
The Charlotte, N.C.-based steelmaker said in a letter to customers dated Nov. 9 that the hike comprises a $52-per-ton ($2.60-per-cwt) increase in the companys raw material surcharge combined with a decrease in base prices of $17 per ton (85 cents per cwt).
Tampa, Fla.-based Gerdau Long Steel North America jumped on board Monday, announcing in letters to customers a $35-per-ton increase on rebar and most angles, channels, flats, rounds and squares. Gerdau said its increases are effectively immediately on all new orders, while existing orders will be price protected provided they are shipped prior to Dec. 1, the company said in its Nov. 12 letters.
Market players said they were widely expecting other mills to follow.
The price increase announcements come after AMMs consumer buying price for shredded scrap in Chicagoused as the basis for some mills surchargesrose to $387 per ton, a $52-per-ton gain from Octobers levels (amm.com, Nov. 7).
Several market sources questioned why domestic mills announced an increase of less than the full $52-per-ton scrap price rise, with some citing poor demand and others pointing to import competition, especially on merchant products in the southern United States. But others noted that mills hadnt moved finished steel prices in lockstep with scrap when pricing for the raw material fell in recent months either.
Some market players said product demand has picked up in the days since the increase was announced as buyers looked to get orders in ahead of the hike.
"Ive been busy. Ive got a million quotes to do," one rebar distributor said, noting that some sizes were already in short supply, and thus the increase was essentially in effect immediately for those items.
But other market sources were less optimistic on demand prospects. "Demand is not great. I dont know that anyone would want to go long. There is just too much uncertainty," a second rebar buyer said. "I understand that the mills have to deal with the change in their costs. ... But the first half of next year is shot."
He predicted that demand would remain sluggish as the market tries to digest the impact of the recent U.S. elections on the marketplace, something he and other sources predicted could take as long as six to eight months.
Market participants also pointed to increasing volatility of scrap tags and finished steel prices, noting that it has become hard in some cases to convince downstream buyers that prices are truly as volatile as they have been in recent months despite an essentially unchanged marketplace.
"The difficulty is the constant fluctuation," the second buyer said. "A $20-per-ton move used to be huge. Now $40 to $60 per ton gets thrown out like a glass of water."
Some buyer sources argued that if scrap prices continue to rise without a marked improvement in demand, a short-lived pricing bubble could develop.
But a mill source said his company had little choice but to raise prices. "We cant sell at a loss. If scrap goes up, youve got to cover it," he said.

Space wind really does exist!
Over 20 years ago, scientists proposed that wind existed in space, but until recently have been unable to prove it. Now, however, scientists at the European Geosciences Union (EGO) have detected a plasmaspheric wind that contributes to the loss of material from the Earth's plasmasphere, a region of space extending above its atmosphere.
To detect the space wind, scientists analyzed properties of charged particles by using information collected in the Earth's plasmasphere by ESA's Cluster spacecraft. The research team also created a filtering technique to eliminate noise sources that would allow them to look for specific plasma motion. After carefully scrutinizing data, researchers found a slow, but steady, wind releasing about 90 tons of plasma into Earth's outer magnetosphere every day. This plasma motion is present at all times, even when the Earth's magnetic field is not being disturbed by energy particles coming from the Sun.
"The plasmaspheric wind is a weak phenomenon, requiring for its detection sensitive instrumentation and detailed measurements of the particles in the plasmasphere and the way they move," said Iannis Dandouras of the Research Institute of Astrophysics and Planetology in Toulouse, France.
The scientists now believe that this space wind not only contributes to the loss of material that occurs from Earth's top atmospheric layer, but is also the source of plasma for the outer magnetosphere above it.
"The plasmaspheric wind is an important element in the mass budget of the plasmasphere, and has implications on how long it takes to refill this region after it is eroded following a disturbance of the planet's magnetic field," explained Dandouras.
So why is this so important? The Earth's plasmasphere is the most important plasma reservoir inside the magnetosphere and plays an important role in governing the Earth's radiation belts, which are hazardous to satellites and astronauts travelling through them. The plasmasphere is also responsible for the delay in production of GPS signals passing through it. Understanding how space wind works may give us insight in how to deal with those particular issues, as well as give us a better knowledge of weather patterns in space.
