On Nov. 21, The Packer conducted an exclusive question-and-answer interview with Will Steele, president and CEO of Frontera Produce, Edinburg, Texas, the marketer of the listeria-tainted cantaloupes shipped by Jensen Farms, Holly, Colo.
Q1. Please explain Frontera Produce's business relationship with Jensen Farms.
Our role was that of a marketing agent, providing our expertise to find buyers and manage the sales paperwork and logistics for cantaloupe grown and packed by Jensen Farms. We did not purchase or take possession of the cantaloupe; rather we provided marketing services to Jensen Farms on a commission basis. As independent growers, the Jensens also sold directly to some customers, mostly locally.
As part of our marketing services, we utilized our inventory control system in which every pallet of Jensen Farms cantaloupe marketed by Frontera was remotely entered into our database when it was harvested and shipped. This proved to be important in tracking the product to customers in our database because we had records of where each pallet came from and where Jensen Farms shipped it.
SteeleQ2. How did the Sept. 14 Jensen Farms cantaloupe recall unfold from Frontera's role as a fresh produce marketer?
Things happened quickly after that first call from health authorities. But before I get into the details, let me first strongly encourage all produce companies to test their recall plans to be sure that they can take immediate action if they are ever in a situation similar to what we faced. Our ability to respond quickly assisted in the investigation and may have prevented additional illnesses.
Here is how it all unfolded from our perspective:
On Thursday, Sept. 8, Colorado state health authorities specifically requested shipment records for cantaloupe grown in the Rocky Ford region as part of an investigation into an outbreak of listeria illnesses. We were also told at that point that the investigation included possible listeria sources other than cantaloupe. Because we had electronically integrated the farm's inventory records with our purchase order records, we were able to quickly provide state officials with the customer list and initial shipping destinations for the Jensen Farms' cantaloupe for which we were the marketer.
On Monday, Sept. 12, prior to pinpointing the exact source, Colorado state health officials issued a general consumer warning to not eat cantaloupe from the entire Rocky Ford region. We discussed this announcement with Jensen Farms that day and, as a precautionary measure, the Jensens stopped harvesting and selling cantaloupes because of the general warning. Frontera assisted Jensen Farms in issuing a voluntary market withdrawal by contacting customers in our database and asking that they remove the product from commerce and hold it until Colorado state officials could provide more information. We contacted customers by phone that same night (Sept. 12) and Tuesday morning (Sept. 13). These customers included wholesale operations that resell the product as well as retail distribution centers that ship to individual stores.

A new Ford sport utility vehicle is equipped with "ghost" lettering. This allows the SUV to blend in with traffic when a "suspected violator" is being observed, according to officials at the Sheriff's Office.
A total of seven vehicles have been placed in service this year and the focus is on economy, especially in the area of greater fuel savings.
Sheriff Jim Ruth said the new Chevy Impala cruisers have V-6 engines.
The SUV also has a high-output V-6 engine and is four-wheel drive.
"The ghost car (SUV) has specially designed decals that are only obvious when hit by direct light. It allows the cruiser to close with suspected violators before being prematurely revealed," said Bob Gault, BCSO media relations coordinator.
"When the pursuit lights are on and light strikes the cruiser they are very obvious and easily identified," Gault added.
According to Gault, the SUV criminal interdiction interceptor was purchased with funds forfeited by drug violators.
"Fuel-efficient cars are one way we are reducing costs while maintaining the high level of service the people of Bradley County receive from the BCSO," Ruth said.
According to Ruth, the change to a new pursuit vehicle has several pluses.
"While the new lightweight cruiser is more responsive in traffic, the most desirable feature is the expected 40 percent better fuel economy. The smaller engines deliver more horsepower than larger vehicles, which is critical for an emergency response," Ruth said.
The new cruisers at present have an increased mileage of five or six miles to the gallon regarding fuel consumption, according to Ruth.
The new cars have been outfitted with radios, LED emergency lights which are more visible to motorists in both daylight and at night, mobile data terminals, video recorders and other emergency equipment. Multi-channel radios keep deputies in contact with the 911 Communications Center but also provide access to frequencies (800 mhz) used by the Cleveland Police Department, Tennessee Highway Patrol and other agencies.
Mobile data terminals have improved efficiency, giving deputies access to 911 center servers from their cruiser. Most reports are now submitted to supervisors over the computer system, according to Ruth.
Another piece of equipment is a GPS so supervisors, dispatchers and other deputies know the locations of patrol units at all times. This helps the 911 center and supervisors to know availability and proximity to dispatch the proper vehicle. It can also be crucial to locating an injured deputy unable to give his location to dispatchers.
The new cruisers sport a new look.
"The all-white vehicle purchase price is substantially less than pre-painted, marked vehicles," Ruth said.
According to Ruth, work was done at the BCSO fleet maintenance facility, saving thousands of dollars for installation of specialized equipment.

The Trial Court Employment Protection and Governance Act of 2000 permanently changed the employment status of 21,000 non-judiciary court personnel from that of county to trial court employees.
Courts will transition from a wide variety of HR Systems to the Phoenix Human Resources System, the trial court human resources system to support human resources management and administration.
The system will provide centralized self-service and call-center support for courts. It is anticipated to be fully operational by 2015.
Phoenix Financial Systems
The Phoenix Financial System provides a statewide trial court financial system and a centralized treasury that will enable the courts to produce financial statements that comply with existing statutes, rules, and regulations. The system standardizes accounting and business functions, maximizes investment opportunities, ensures uniformity of financial recordkeeping, and provides consistent data and reporting for the judicial, legislative, and executive branches, thereby ensuring the judicial branch's fiscal accountability to the public.
The Phoenix Financial System has been fully deployed to all 58 trial courts statewide.
Phoenix Human Resources Systems
The Phoenix Human Resources System provides a comprehensive information system infrastructure that supports trial court human resources management and payroll needs. Designed for integration with the Phoenix Financial System and first deployed in July 2006, the system offers new, standardized technology for human resources administration and payroll processing, provides consistent reporting, ensures compliance with state and federal labor laws, collects data at the source, provides central processing, and provides manager and employee self-service functions to the courts.

A Prophetic Warning
I saw this website was given on a post from awhile back so I thought I would share it again. www.realclearreligion.com
One of the paragraphs that caused me to think real hard was this one:
"Ordinary Catholics will not survive this revolution. They must be Catholics who are thoroughly convinced that God became man in the person of Jesus. They must be convinced there is only one supreme authority on earth: the authority of Jesus Christ vested in the Vicar if Christ. What the Church needs, desperately needs, is strong believing Catholics. Otherwise one nation after another, like our own, will be wiped out as a Christian country."
What do you think?

"Nixle has greatly improved our messaging capability and has given our residents a customizable, reliable and trusted emergency messaging service."
"By sending our message directly to people's cell phones and email addresses, we ensure that accurate and important information is right at our constituents' fingertips."
An elderly man was reported missing by his wife. He was last seen at 7:30 pm and the Nixle Alert was sent out just after 10:30 pm. An hour later a motorist who had received the Nixle notification spotted the man walking out of the woods and contacted police. The responding officer returned him safely to his wife just before midnight.
The Redondo Beach, CA Police Department conducted a joint press conference with the FBI to announce a $10,000 reward for the capture and prosecution of a murder suspect. An anonymous tip provided to the RBPD sent by a Nixle subscriber led to the arrest of the suspect two days later 700 miles away in a Utah restaurant.
When a man was harassing employees at a local corner store, the police had little information about the man. The break in the case came when the agency sent a Nixle message containing a photo taken from the store's surveillance camera. A resident replied anonymously to the Nixle message and identified the man.

Comments about NARS Duo Eyeshadow Compact, Eurydice, 1 ea:
There is usually a real standout in NARS holiday releases and this is the one this year. The grey is a beautiful deep grey without any of the blue tint that often ruins greys for my pale skin, but the purple is the real star. The purple is a gorgeous deep aubergine color with a very pretty blue glitter. The glitter is very fine, like the glitters in the night shades, and thus quite subtle. All in all, a gorgeous set and a new evening favorite.

text: First off, I've only had these shoes for a little while so my review isn't exactly going to be time tested. They are amazingly comfortable and very well fitted, you really feel supported when wearing them. It almost feels like Merrell's continuum is in action here however there is no indication on the shoe of this. The style of the shoe, i feel, is second to none. An incredibly good looking boot, in person and on screen. I am typically size 10.5 but i use thick cocks to feel comfortable in size 11's however this is not necessary with this boot. I bought size 11's but they feel slightly smaller than your typical shoe of that size so i would recommend getting either a half or a full size bigger if you intend to use these shoes with thick walking socks. Overall i would highly recommend this shoe to any avid walker/trekker.

Sand Tufted Chairs, Set of 2
Great chairs
We used scotch guard on them. Since someone mentioned they were hard to clean.
April 18, 2012
LOVE this chair!
They look expensive.
December 9, 2011
Great-looking but fabric wears
I fell in love with these chairs at first sight: They have high backs, wide seating, and high end look with the tufting but without the high price tag. I have had these for a year now (they were reintroduced this season) and while the seats are still comfortable, I am disappointed in discovering the fabric is showing a lot of wear. First, it is very difficult to clean stains. The fabric absorbs oil which is not practical for use as a dining chair. Second, white rings appear if even just water drops on and dries on it. Third, the fabric color has faded where there has been inconsistent exposure to natural or artificial light. In the end I expect more durability out of a chair that still costs over $100 even if it costs less than it looks.
November 14, 2011
Don't get these chairs dirty or get water on them!
We have had these chairs for about 3-weeks and used them for the first time on Thanksgiving. They look great and with a little glue during the assembly process, they seem to be pretty sturdy. Unfortunately, we simply wiped a small spot on two of the chairs with straight water and on each chair the fabric has faded and there are white ring stains where the water was. I get that these chairs are not the most expensive in town but I would expect they could be wiped with water and not end up as they have. I will be taking these back to the store this weekend! Waste of time shopping for them, putting them together and now taking them back!

AMBA enables IP re-use
IP re-use is an essential component in reducing SoC development costs and timescales. AMBA specifications provide the interface standard that enables IP re-use if the following essential requirements are met:
IP re-use requires a common standard while supporting a wide variety of SoCs with different power, performance and area requirements. With its ACE, AXI, AHB and APB interface protocols, AMBA 4 has the flexibility to match every requirement. With AMBA 5 CHI interface ARM extends performance and scalability to many coherent processors.
The multi-layer architecture acts as a crossbar switch between masters and slaves in an AMBA 3 AXI or AHB system. The parallel links allow the bandwidth of the interconnect to support the peak bandwidth of the masters without increasing the frequency of the interconnect.
It is a standard interface specification that ensures compatibility between IP components from different design teams or vendors. The AMBA specifications are available as both a written specification as well as a set of assertions that unambiguously define the interface protocol, thus ensuring this level of compatibility.
The wide adoption of AMBA specifications throughout the semiconductor industry has driven a comprehensive market in third party IP products and tools to support the development of AMBA based systems. The availability of SystemVerilog assertions for AMBApromote this industry wide participation.

Ever since we bought this house, we have always had plans to re-do the bathroom, and after finally re-doing the kitchen last year, this year would be the year of the bathroom!
And some more details.
Here is a reminded of how it looked just over 2 weeks ago……
The Room of Doom/Gloom is gone – no more black tiles, grey tiles, yellow border, white/grey suite.
Instead welcome to natural colours, neutral tiles, pebble border, roll-top free standing bath, trendy wide sink (900 mm), some built-in storage, towel-warming chrome radiatiors, and a large separate shower.
Considering the amount we were ripping out, there was little disruption to the family. The builders were tidy and considerate, and every evening hoovered up before they left.
Here are a few photos of the work in progress.
So was it all worth it? Absolutely!
It has turned out exactly as I had hoped – maybe even better!!!! Just need to add a few final touches – candles, some new towels etc.
My fave parts of the new room? A close race between my wide sink and the deep free-standing bath, but the bath wins!!!
Which room in your house would you most like to change? Let me know!
As the new bathroom has a spa/natural theme going on – this week I am inspired by all things neutral/natural and hope to find some new accessories this weekend.
For more bloggy Inspiration visit The Inspired Room
I am linking this post up to Shabby Chic Cottage "Transformation Thursday"
34 comments on The Big Bathroom Makeover – before, during and after!

Amanda -

How fab does the bathroom look. Glass of wine and candles in that tub sounds like heaven. x
OMG. I love it!!!!!!!!!!!
**running around gathering supplies so I can fly over there and take a shower … do you have any shampoo?*
Okay, may I have your old bathroom? Thanks!!
The new bath looks wonderful!!
Looks fabulous! And I totally covet that tub, even though I don't really do the tub thing. But that is awesome.
Wow. The tub wins. We just picked our selections for our new master and our tub is quite similar. Enjoy it!
Looks great! The shower and tub are just absolutley gorgeous!
Wow…that is amazing
looks like lots of hard work
the tub is like a hot tub or a spa
makes me want to try it out (o:
well it is a little far away for me this rainy Friday night -
Queues for the bathroom begin in 3…2…1..
It really is beautiful and I love the sink. I'd probably have to put on my very best shouting voice here to stop anyone leaving things on the side of it though:)
Happy SITS Saturday Sharefest! Or something like that!
Visiting from Southern California. And I LOVE your bathroom.
Really, only two weeks? Amazingly beautiful! -
Bathroom looks beautiful!I think the 2 most important rooms are definitely the kitchen and the bathroom! Great job!
Thx for stopping by! -
Stopping by from SITS!
Your bathroom looks awesome! You did a fantastic job with it!!
Stopping by from SITS. What a gorgeous bathroom. I must admit, I didn't HATE the before, but your after is definitely stunning. I would be most happy with that sink, anything is better than a pedastal sink. Now I must go check out your kitchen re-do. I love a good house makeover.
WOW how pretty! If only mine can look half as decent lol
Happy SITS Saturday Sharefest from Indonesia!
Stopping by from SITS. The redo is gorgeous! Renovation is exhausting and exhilarating! Best of luck with the new bathroom–pee and shower well!
It looks absolutely fabulous!!! The tile work is beautiful!
Oh wow… I would have that in my own bathroom. xx
Wow! That looks so good
HA! I "THOUGHT" I had already commented here? I am so losing it these days. With all the new things I am learning I guess I'm overstuffed in the cranial department.
Anyways, if I were to come to your house I fear I might not want to leave your bathroom, its so nice! Very tasteful and I'm sure you must get such a sense of pride to have put it all together. What a huge responsibility, for you will have to live with it for years.
Thanks for allowing us to share in it's coming about. I sort of feel like its our bathroom too, only we don't have to clean it, and even if we did it would be a pleasure too. haha!
Barb -
Your bath turned out wonderful! The tile work is unique and I especially like the tub and towel warmer. The sink looks wide enough to actually be useful. Nicely done and I'm sure you will enjoy it for many years.

Found your through Sits. You have a new follower

This is the first official district workweek of the 113th Congress. DeJarlais represents the redrawn 4th Congressional District. He shares Bradley County with Rep. Chuck Fleischmann of the 3rd District.
About 30 business and political leaders listened as he spoke on a variety of issues, including the Second Amendment.
"So far this week, we've spent a lot of time talking about the Second Amendment, a little bit about immigration and an awful lot about debt, debt ceiling, spending and the economy," at other public meetings in the district, he said.
The congressman announced the opening of his district office at 301 Keith Street S.W., in the Village Green where FSG Bank is located. He will also continue tele-town hall meetings as a communications device.
Dan Rawls asked about having to sacrifice principles to allow immigration to come forward. He said Mitt Romney lost the presidential election because the Republican nominee was too moderate and the "huge amount of voter fraud no one talks about."
He said the media has twisted the immigration and gun control narratives "to make it appear like you have to do this. You don't ever have to do anything to sacrifice your principles. … We're being lied to and allowing the media to control the narrative. I would just like to see the Republican House hold the line on both of these issues and not allow themselves to be pushed around."
DesJarlais said neither the Senate nor the House was going to push the issues very far. Sen. Dianne Feinstein has authored legislation that will not make it out of the Senate, he said.
"I know it won't make it out of the House. I worry that it's so over the top that it may be kind of a good cop/bad cop where the president comes in with some kind of executive order that seems less onerous," he said. "We as a nation have a very unique right in the Second Amendment and it's very important to us and that certainly resonates all across the Fourth District. There's no question where the majority of my constituents stand on the Second Amendment and I stand right there with them."
The congressman said President Barack Obama would not be allowed to circumvent the Constitution by executive order. "We'll do everything legally and legislatively to stop that, even if he has to be brought up for impeachment, you don't mess with the Constitution through an executive order."
He does agree with the president on the issue of mental illness, "because behind all of these shootings, there is usually a mentally ill person."
There is a disincentive for medical doctors to treat mental illness because if doctors document depression, that automatically decreases reimbursements to physicians.
Concerning the budget, he said, "if you follow the circus that's been going on for the last couple of years, certainly since I've been in Congress, the mentality has been, why do today what you can put off until tomorrow."
He said the nation needs meaningful spending cuts and a balanced budget. The fiscal cliff was pushed to March 1.
"Sequestration needs to happen. There's still time to balance those cuts across government rather than having the military hit so hard, and Medicare and some of the other entitlements. Bottom line, it needs to happen and that's the deal we struck to raise the debt limit," he said.
About relief for victims of Hurricane Sandy, DeJarlais said he voted against the $60 billion aid package, not because he's against helping people in need, "but we still have to be responsible in doing so. There's a lot of criticism over the Iraq and Afghanistan wars because they weren't paid for. Well that's the problem with our government. They don't pay for anything, they just borrow more."
He said Chickamauga Lock is a priority in Tennessee but for which there is not a lot of money to spend.
"If we prioritize our spending, most of the projects that are needed can be taken care of. We've just got to get rid of a lot of waste in government and it's everywhere in every department," he said. "I'll work closely with Chuck and work with the other representatives here to do what we can."

Put down the iPad without closing the app, and work up this morning to a dead iPad. The app cancels autolock, even when a video is not running. So, be advised... On the flip side, it DOES mean that you can select your shows for prep and downloading at night, and wake up to find them nicely ready to go on the iPad in the AM -- provided you leave it plugged in to the charger.
I think the ideal solution is like the new iOS WiFi Sync, auto-download in the background when on a charger and on WiFi only. Manual is all other cases. That will solve this issue--that and now forcing the lockout obviously.

OK, so, obviously, every world in the imperium, to a greater or lesser extent, maintains a unique planetary society.
But is there an 'Imperial Society'? An overarching, interstellar, society that defines the imperium, perhaps providing heroic, moral and societal paragons for the various disparate societies to emulate and aspire to? If so, what is it like? How is it constituted, structured, maintained?
The example i'm thinking of is Ancient Rome. The various Roman provinces all had their local cultures, customs etc. Gaul as different to Numidia. Egypt was different to Iberia, etc. However, they were all Roman; they all adopted Roman culture, religion, materials, building styles...Egyptians and Gauls alike wanted to 'be Roman' (not everyone of course, but many, many did).
So is the Imperium similar?

this game??
because he was scoring slowly?
Yes and yes. In short, Ashwin and Ojha are dumb ****s. Particularly Ashwin.
India needed quick runs to force a result. England spread the field whenever Ashwin was on strike. Ashwin was not taking the singles. However instead of bringing in the field for the 5th and 6th ball, as they didn't care about how long India batted or whether they got 1 single every over, they kept the field spread. Ashwin was too dumb to innovate and just sat there surprised, and kept taking a single, i.e India were going at 1 rpo. England were quite happy seeing India do this and didn't really need, and possibly want, a wicket to fall.
It's hard to believe but if the Heat somehow win tonight they will make the finals :S
I notice that Andy Bichel's cousin is making his first class debut tonight for the Heat. Strangely enough, the batting line up looks a lot weaker without Cutting in there.
It'll be a miracle if the Heat win tonight.

I saw Giants win beat the Marlin's on June 27th and saw Wilson get his 30th save. The game itself was very exciting especially since it's only the second time I've been there to see them win live this year. The last time was the 9-0 win in LA, but that was all the way back in April, so this was a nice change. For the record, I called it that Cain would go 7 innings, Romo would pitch the 8th and Wilson would close it. Because that's what I was hoping for and that is exactly what happened. Thank you, Bruce Bochy.
One of my top 100 goals in life was accomplished: Catching a foul ball. Although, technically, I did not catch it. It bounced to me. It was hit by Huff during batting practice and it's all scuffed up, so you can tell it was played. Can you see my smile, stretching through cyberland? I thought so.
My foul ball
I also won a KNBR t-shirt at the adorable KNBR booth. My house is now officially KNBRed. I have a t-shirt and post-its and my brother has a mousepad. And a wicked imitation of all the different broadcasters home run and strike three calls.
Me with my t-shirt at the booth
But everything about the game was lost in the… (drum roll) orange cleats saga! It seems a little like déjà vu all over again from the Twitter controversy with Wilson. He seems to land in controversy no matter what he does. Although orange cleats are not exactly subtle. You all know I am a big Wilson fan, so I am on his side in this and think the Sharpie thing is mildly hilarious. $1000 fine, not so much. I think it's all been blown a little out of proportion, as seen by my all caps in the title of this post. Tell him not to wear the cleats and he would probably not wear them. A fine without a warning and all the press attention? Disagree. I think I'm going to be investing in some orange shoes myself in the next few days to show some solidarity. Will, of course, post pictures if I do.
No, I did not edit this photo. The moon was orange at the game. Which was amazing, because with the black sky it looked… orange and black! It was in honor of the Giants, for sure.
Happy 20 years, Kruk and Kuip!

Engineered Garments took its brand name from a pattern maker hired to draft the first round of patterns. She claimed that the clothes were not designed but engineered due to the vast amount of detailing involved in each garment. The designer of the collection, Daiki Suzuki, agreed. Details from American sportswear, outdoor clothing, and military uniforms are all included in the collection and give Engineered Garments a natural, post-modernistic and deconstructed style.

Ridley has a long history in the professional peloton. Since the the ProTour was founded in 2005, we sponsor a cycling team at the highest level. After some adventures with foreign teams , we have now arrived back at the Belgian Lotto-Belisol team.
2005-2008 Lotto
2009-2010 Katusha
2011-2012 Vacansoleil
2012-2014 Lotto-Belisol
2015-... Lotto-Soudal
The Lotto-Soudal cycling team (www.lottosoudal.be) is a Belgian team. For us at Ridley, the Lotto-Belisol project was a perfect match with our goals. Of course , the riders of the team make maximum use of the high-tech bikes that we make available . They ride on a revolutionary Ridley Noah FAST for the extra punch in the sprint or a Helium SL , the lightweight model in the Ridley range, for climbing. Since the Tour de France in 2013, the riders can also rely on the Dean FAST time trial bike .
The Topsport-Flanders women's team rides a Ridley Liz, a bike that is specifically adapted to the physique of women. By sponsoring this team, we can support women's cycling and get feedback from the female peloton.
We also want to contribute to the development of young cycling talent. That is why we sponsor some of the best U-23 cycling teams in Belgium: Lotto-Belisol U23 and Baguette Bicycle Center - MIBA Ports Cycling Team .
We also want to give young riders a chance to grow outside of Belgium. Therefore, we sponsor the Italian Team Colpack, and the Norwegian team Østerhus Ridley.

Five suburbs are again joining efforts to reduce the number of drunken drivers on New Year's Eve.
Orland Park has offered the Safe Ride Home Program for nearly 20 years, with Palos Heights, Mokena, Tinley Park and New Lenox joining over the last several years.
"Safe Ride Home is a great example of area municipalities working together to keep the roads safer on New Year's Eve," Orland Park Mayor Dan McLaughlin said in a prepared statement.
The program is funded by each of the participating municipalities and through a grant from the Michael P. Gordon Foundation. Gordon, 30, was a Chicago police officer in 2004 when his patrol car was hit by a drunken, unlicensed driver who ran a red light, killing Gordon and seriously injuring his partner.
Free rides home from establishments within the participating towns will be available beginning at 11 p.m. Dec. 31 until 4 a.m. Jan. 1. Drivers will transport revelers home and not to other establishments.
More than 150 people took advantage of the service last year, according to a news release.
Residents of the participating towns may call Stretch Limousine's toll-free number at (855) 230-1637 to arrange for a free ride home during the designated hours.

End-to-end Howard Theatre Renovation, Part 1
Apr 6, 2012 10:54 AM, With Bennett Liles
Listen to the Podcasts
Editor's note: For your convenience, this transcription of the podcast includes timestamps. If you are listening to the podcast and reading its accompanying transcription, you can use the timestamps to jump to any part of the audio podcast by simply dragging the slider on the podcast to the time indicated in the transcription.
From Sound & Video Contractor Magazine, this is the SVC Podcast Show 55 Part 1 with Amit Peleg of New York design and integration firm Peltrix. Show notes for the podcast are available on the web site of Sound & Video Contractor Magazine at svconline.com.
The Howard Theater in Washington, D.C was once a dilapidated hulk, but after a huge renovation, its audio and video systems are among the best anywhere. Amit Peleg of New York design and integration firm Peltrix is going to tell us how they pulled off the Howard's big tech resurrection, coming right up on the SVC Podcast.
SVC: Amit, thanks for being with us on the SVC Podcast from Peltrix in New York and we're going to be talking about the big Howard Theater project, but before we get started on that, tell me something about Peltrix and what all you do there?
Amit Peleg: Hi. Peltrix is a design, installation, and integration company. In business since 1996 or [1995], I think. I think the end of [95]. We're dealing mainly with high-caliber music videos such as B.B. King Blues Club and New York, Blue Note Jazz in New York—I mean Highline Ballroom in New York; we did Blue Note in Las Vegas and now Howard Theater in Washington D.C. is the current project we're working on right now. [It's] pretty elaborate. We don't bid on jobs. We basically are hired to do the whole thing from start to end including actually helping with production, so we don't just do either design or the installation, but we help right from the start to the architects with things such as stage size or design of the stage itself, what kind of materials to put on top of the stage, power. And then to the clients, we help in the end with even hiring the house production staff. [Timestamp: 1:58]
Well, that sounds like a lot, and I guess once you're on location on the job that really gives you an advantage in having kind of handle on everything.
Yes, I actually worked in the field as sound engineer traveling for many years, so I kind of experienced what bands experience when they come to a venue and what they need and how to make their life easy or easier anyway. I try to implement those things in the venues that we work in so when they come over it's the same thing as if they're actually touring with their own system. Especially for one nighters, if they come in and—some of the artists that perform in those venues are normally an arena sized artists—and they're used to [travelling] with their own rig and get the same thing every night. And if they come for a one-nighter, in a small venue like this, they have to be able to just patch in. Maybe they bring in their own console and or some other outboard gear and they should be able to get in and out without any delays because there's not much time to play games there. [Timestamp: 2:54]
And you're talking about a fairly small venue, but actually the Howard Theater in Washington, D.C. is an old place, but there's been a lot of work going on there. Tell me what's been going on with the big renovation there. It sounds like a lot going on.
Yes, Howard Theater is a 100-year-old theater in Washington, D.C. that used to be the icon of the old straight-ahead jazz and the good era of the jazz at the very beginning. People such as Billy Holiday played over there and during segregation time even. It was closed and abandoned in the, I believe, in the end of the 1970s. It was basically shut down for 30 years and run down to basically a shell. Everything else was destroyed. The roof caved in and the walls were basically the only thing that was still left there. It is part of a pilot project to bring about the whole neighborhood around the Howard University in Washington, D.C. There are some other buildings that are being built right around it, but that will be the center point for action and activity in the area and hopefully that's going to help in bringing this whole area to a better shape than it is right now. It's pretty run down. [Timestamp: 4:02]
