Manpower's CEO Discusses Q1 2012 Results - Earnings Call Transcript
As Jeff mentioned, the first quarter was a strong start to the year. Revenue growth exceeded expectations up 3% in constant currency. Revenue benefited approximately 1% from acquisitions and about 1% due to an extra billing day compared to the prior year in some of our countries. Earnings per share of $0.50 exceeded the midpoint of our guidance by $0.16 per share, which was all driven by superior operational performance.
Our SG&A expense was in line with expectations despite the stronger revenue growth, and as a result the incremental gross profit and the additional revenue growth fell straight to the bottom line. This resulted in an operating profit margin of 1.8% which was 30 basis points better than expectations and 10 basis points better than prior year. Our reported tax rate of 51% was slightly below expectations, which was simply due to the fact that the French business tax component of our provision was not impacted by higher pretax earnings. The underlying effect of income tax rate excluding the French business tax was 38%, which was right in line with expectations.
The currency impact on the quarter was a negative $0.02 right in line with the expectations. While the year was slightly stronger than expected, the overall earnings per share impact fell in line with expectations as more euro based earnings were generated than anticipated.
Our gross profit margin came in above as expected at 16.6%. This is 30 basis points below the prior-year and primarily relates to a lower staffing gross profit margin impact of 20 basis points. Staffing gross margins are stable in most markets, but margins have been negatively impacted by slightly higher unbillable bench times and stronger growth from a few lower gross margin key accounts.
We have also experienced some price pressure in the contracting Italian and Dutch markets. Additionally, our gross margin was impacted about 10 basis points from our China acquisition last year, which will anniversary this month.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

As a new year starts, reading challenges pop up like resolutions. Blogs, Goodreads groups and even Goodreads itself start touting reading challenges for the year: read X books, read X series, read your TBR, etc. I confess I've been participating in those challenges ever since I joined GR in 2007, but this year, I'm taking a different approach to challenges: quality instead of quantity.

FirstNet CIO Jim Gwinn says he enjoys the feel of operating in what is essentially a high-tech startup inside government.
Jim Gwinn, a telecom and IT veteran with stints in government and the private sector, sees the CIO post at FirstNet as the culmination of his previous experience.
As CIO of the Farm Service Agency, he was responsible for modernizing enterprise computing for 2,200 far-flung county offices nationwide, many in remote communities. As an executive at MCI and Verizon, he oversaw network management and provisioning, and helped manage Verizon's "call-before-you-dig" effort, which took inventory of the provider's underground infrastructure in order to help prevent network disruptions caused by errant construction. In other words, he knows where the fiber is buried.
This broad experience fits nicely with the process of standing up FirstNet (short for First Responder Network Authority), a public-sector effort housed at the Commerce Department to build an interoperable, nationwide, broadband communications network for public safety workers and first responders.
The network will enable voice, text, photographic and video transmissions using the high-bandwidth Long-Term Evolution technology. It has to work in rural and urban areas, and it must function in crisis situations, when communications networks are likely to be taxed by ordinary people checking in with friends and family.
The initial effort is to be funded with as much as $7 billion in proceeds from the upcoming auction of broadcast spectrum to be conducted by the Federal Communications Commission sometime in 2015. In the meantime, FirstNet has access to a $2 billion line of credit to fund operations. Eventually, funding is expected to come on a fee-for-service basis from law enforcement community customers.
But to build out its network within its financial constraints, FirstNet is looking to leverage existing public and private sector infrastructure, like cellular towers and backhaul networks.
"It's a very important mission," Gwinn, who's been on the job since early April, told FCW. "It enables a lot of capabilities that don't exist today. The challenges are phenomenal and seemingly endless."
The demand for the system grew out of the frustration among first responders after 9/11, when New York City police and fire departments couldn't communicate directly with each other, or with other law enforcement entities like the Port Authority police and the FBI. Problems with interoperability continue to bedevil emergency responders in situations that require multiple agency responses, like last year's Navy Yard shooting. At the same time, FirstNet has met with some resistance from states, which want to go their own way in building public safety networks. FirstNet must convince enough of the 60,000 law enforcement entities nationwide to buy into the system for it to be viable.
For Gwinn, the sales pitch is about "enabling [public safety workers] to do their job better, and giving them the ability to focus on their core competencies." First responders should not have to worry about things like, "will the network be up, will it stay up, will it support communications and collaborations when needed," he said.
Right now, FirstNet is in the process of scoping out its network, pitching the system to state, local and tribal law enforcement agencies, staffing up, and moving out of its downtown D.C. space at Commerce into a leased facility in Reston, Va. (FirstNet is also establishing an office in Boulder, Colo.) Gwinn estimates the agency has doubled in size in the last three months.
And in late April, FirstNet announced the hiring of another telecom veteran, Ali Afrashteh, to serve as CTO. Gwinn said he enjoys the vibe of being at what is essentially a high-tech startup within the government.
"The challenges and opportunities extend beyond job descriptions in many cases," he said. "There are opportunities to move among the functional areas within the organization. It's entrepreneurial by nature, to take something very small and support something very big."

I have this ongoing disagreement with wife and difficult child regarding the thermostat. I have always considered 70 to 74 degrees Fahrenheit (21 to 23 deg. C) to be standard, comfortable room temperature. I have programmed the thermostat at 74 with the A/C on or 70 when the furnace is running. Well, difficult child and wife think that 74 is too cold, let alone 70. So they override the programmed settings by pressing the "warmer" button on the thermostat. I have several problems with this: - 74 is already at the upper end of my comfort level. - They seem to believe that the more times you press that button, the faster the house will warm up. I have said that no, the furnace only has one speed. If you want 77, you won't get it any faster by setting the thermostat at 80 than you will by setting it at 77. They nod their heads, agree with me, and go right ahead and bump it up to 80. - Since heat rises, the bedrooms upstairs are typically 4 or 5 degrees warmer than downstairs where the thermostat is located. I frequently wake up in the night bathed in sweat, to find that the thermostat was left on 77 or 78 and the b/r is consequently 82 degrees. difficult child has always been this way. Every one else will be comfortable in t-shirts and flip-flops while she is dressed in sweater and thick socks, with a blanket wrapped around her, complaining about the cold. wife only started this recently. Is it a side effect of some medications that they feel so cold all the time? wife recently started on Lamictal. I consoled myself over the summer that at least we were saving on the electric, but with winter coming on I don't want to see the gas bills to heat the house to somewhere between "toasty" and "infernal regions". Anyway, my question is: what do you consider to be a comfortable room temperature?
Hi, I would say about 70 degrees is comfortable for me but we kept the thermostat set at 68 when we are home. I would be so hot at 80 degrees, especially at night when I am sleeping. We turn it down to 64 at night--I like having to use blankets. Want to come live with me? Sounds like we are more temperature compatible! Jane
It is hormones! My body temp is out of whack lately. I hate it. For the first time I am cold at work. My difficult child would wear sweatshirts in the summer and t-shirts in the winter. I never figured her out. I set the thermostat at 70 when I am home, 68 while I sleep and 64 while I am out. Never below 55 even when on vacation.
I'm with you - 70 to 74 (21-23) is considered a normal room temperature, with myself preferring the 70. I can handle 74, though I consider it a bit warm. It may be the medications. One of the owners at work here had a serious illness 3 years ago and now takes medications, and he is always cold. He's not in the office the full 8 hours, but when he is he cranks the thermostat to 77-78 (25 C) I can tell as soon as it goes over 23 and I'm not the only one complaining it's too hot, so we turn it back to 21. He was turning it up to 78 on days it was 95 outside this summer. My husband likes it hotter too, so he'll feel cold and turn the lever as high up as it will go. There are times then when he leaves for work (he works nights)and, as you do, I'll wake up broiling because he's forgotten to turn the lever back down and it's 90 in the house.
My husband and I have 'thermostat wars'. He is constantly turning it down (colder) and I am constantly turning it up (warmer). He argues that I can put on more clothes. Our compromise is 74 in the summer months and 68 in the winter months. He refuses flannel sheets on the bed ... I refuse the paddle fan on in the bedroom. It's all out war some days. LOL.
All of my life before my heart attack in March, I was always cold. I kept the heat around 76 and still bundled up in flannels, thick socks and a blanket and still had goosebumps. The kids were going to melt or I would have turned it up higher...closer to 80. I had a heater at my desk at work and ran it in the summer when the A/C was on. I had 3 sweaters at work and a dozen more at home. Last summer when it was so hot (in the 90's), I thought it felt really good...couldn't understand what people were complaining about. Now, around 72 is comfortable for me.
My husband faced my temperature needs when we first got hitched. I was pregnant and ALWAYS HOT. I kept that little all bills paid apt so cold you could make ice cream on the counter! Not really, but husband rode his bike about 10 miles to work and came home in the hot OK summer to a freezing house. He used to go for a walk before coming in. But if I get to hot I barf. Have for years. Surgical menopause made things even more fun. Not. As for bedroom ceiling fans, they make me seasick. And I cannot sleep without a blanket. HE cannot sleep without a fan blowing on him. We have compromised to a fan on the nightstand blowing on him but not me. I like 68 or 70. Will go higher in the summer, but only because I must. My body really doesn't like heat. I get a lot of migraines if I am hot, too. Good luck on this. Susie
Am pretty much at a constant 70, however, during my hot flash days there were some pretty horrid discussions on how hot/cold it should be. I have a rule no heaters at night in the winter (having said that I live in Ca.) I hate waking up in the middle of the night gasping because I can't breathe because it is so hot. If anyone is cold, they are welcome to one of the 4 dogs (totaling about 275 pounds) that spend the night, winter or summer, under the covers. As long as I have a leg free to regulate my temp when the body heat gets too much, I am fine. Besides, they all have heated matress pads. Marcie
OK this is such a lovely thing. husband and I are redoing an old home as we live in it. So in the winter last year we did not let the thermostat go over 62. In the summer we have window conditioners and I think the only one that ran full time was the living room. Then came pcs room and then as needed in other areas. I am stingy about it because dang if I am going to pay one more penny than I have to on the bill. So when difficult children come home for visits they freeze in the winter as Residential Treatment Center (RTC)'s have to run at 72. I have lots of spare flannel shirts, sweatshirts, blankets etc. If you are cold in the winter use those things. Beth
I am always hot...or cold...lol. I cant seem to regulate my body temp. I think I would be perfectly happy at around 68 or 70. If it gets warmer than that Im dying and if it gets colder than that Im freezing to death.
We usually have our wood stove going in the winter so it gets fairly warm in the house. Our thermostats are always set on 62 at night so if the wood stove goes out they will kick in at that temp
In the winter we usually keep it between 68-72. I'm often covered in blankets, other times sweating up a storm. In the car is where husband and I are always opposite-he's hot, I'm cold. On long trips I now bring a blanket or two and he wears a tshirt!
I must be part polar bear. My DEX and I (both on the fluffy side) kept our place so cold, my brother used to tease that it was cold enough to hang meat. 65* all winter. And I have GOT to have the air running in the summer. I get into fights with people all the time. If you are warm, and you take off all your clothes, and you are still warm, well you are pretty much out of luck. If you are cold, you can keep putting clothes on. You coming to my house? Bring layers. My BR has its own A/C unit in my new place. It's awesome. I can see my breath.
Well, BBK, I guess I can't come to your housewarming party. I would FREEZE at your house. I'm always cold. I have to wear cuddl duds under my clothes all winter (and I live in Georgia). husband and I compromise and keep the thermostat at 74 ~ I would prefer 76 degrees. When we built our house, I had a wall heater built into the wall of the master bathroom since I hate getting out of the shower into a cold bathroom in the winter. My students and I play thermostat war in my classroom. I'm forever turning up the heat and the kids are always turning it down when I'm not looking (and vice versa with the air conditioning). ~Kathy
Comfortable room temperature is five degrees cooler than whatever my husband has it set to. I just don't get men and thermostats--I kid you not, the rest of the family can be home all day and be perfectly comfortable but he walks in and changes it probably 95% of the time.
This is one of the joys of living alone. I can regulate the temperature any way I want and nobody complains. In the summer I keep it about 80 but I have the fan blowing on me. In the winter I like it about 70, except at night, when I like it about 60. Of course I have lots of blankets and two dogs to keep me warm. :cool-dog: Once it gets above 70, I absolutely cannot sleep.If I am up working, 68 is about the perfect temp but if I am just sitting, a couple of degrees warmer is good. Isn't it funny that we all have such individual internal thermostats? No wonder people can't agree on what the thermostat should be set on.
I think it really depends on the person. husband and I keep this house between 75 - 85F year round. But we heat with wood and the sun and it costs us less than $400/yr. I am truly non-functional below 70F. I just shut down. husband was born and raised in Florida, so he likes it warm. DS says it's too warm for him. My brother keeps his house set at 63F all winter. BRRRRRRRRRRRR That's his comfort level. I have friends in UK who insist that 70F is HOT. They much prefer the mid 60's or a bit lower. So I think it depends on your body type and preferences. (Of course, your pocketbook will probably weigh in heavily if you use conventional heating systems.) But conversely, my bedroom is cold with NO heat, as I can not regulate my body temps well. If it's too hot, I can't sleep, as one typically lowers their temp to sleep. I must regulate my temp by exposing legs, etc. to cool down. We have no heat on the second floor at all, just what comes up the stairs or through the registers from below. Leaving doors open or shut regulates the temp up there. As a child growing up in a cold, very old farmhouse that for some reason had the electric heating in the CEILING!!, I was always cold and swore when I grew up, I'd never be cold like that again. And I have not, having had wood heat most of my adult life. Pam R.

To think it's absolutely ridiculous that parents can't choose their own children's lunch?
(126 Posts)I've read a few threads on here now where parents have been told they can't put chocolate/fizzy pop/whatever the fuck they want into their childrens lunchboxes. Am I alone in thinking this is absolutely absurd? Why on earth is the school taking away the parents choice? I remember once a week, as a treat, I would be sent with jam butties, a packet of crisps, a kit kat and a panda pop cherryade, and the school didn't bat an eyelid. Why do schools feel they have to do this, I wonder?
When I was at school in the 1970's and very early 1980's there was one very overweight child in the entire school.
I live very close to a site with three schools on, a noticeable proportion of the dc are overweight, some just a little and some a lot.
I get the annoyance with the nanny state interfering. MN will have parents using it that are generally concerned parents whether about food, Sats or evil women on the PTA. We want to be informed and couch opinions. A few people always choose to ignore sage advice and that is why schools have lunchbox policies that are harsh. They are irritating but I do get it.
I know Xbox kind of activities are blamed on dc becoming overweight but I think the rise of car useage is more to blame. I had to walk a four mile round trip to school from the age of nine. My neighbour actually laughed when she realised I choose to walk the 1.5 miles in to our town centre and back unless doing a big shop.
It's no imposition to not give your child a bar of chocolate for lunch though - it's hardly cutting out a major food group! If you're desperate to give them chocolate/sweets just do it at 3.30pm.
DS is at pre-school and they haven't got any rules as to what he's allowed to have in his lunch box. I remember the manager saying to me, 'If you want to give him 10 kitkats, then give him 10 kitkats!'
Not likely! It would seem we're in a place where parents understand how to balance out packed lunches and not give said child a packed of Haribo and a can of pop.
The other day...I gave him a bakewell tart as a treat!
I can kind of see why guidelines might be needed. Also recently heard of somebody going quite OTT in the 'healthy' direction and providing really quite an insubstantial pack lunch by consequence. I hope that sort of thing would be picked up on too.
This is what annoys me. So what if once a week, someone sends a bar of chocolate in their child's packed lunch. I don't think that the school have any right to dictate what we are feeding our children!!
If they want to be involved in these things, they should stick to teaching!! Perhaps, they could teach primary school children how to cook healthy food or even offer parents cooking sessions if they are that bothered.
If there are children that are being obviously underfed or overfed (and it is affecting their health) that is the only time a school should be allowed to comment on what we feed our children!!
I think some basic rules are fine - DS's school is very sensible and just says no fizzy drinks (some 4 year olds were being sent in with cans of red bull for example) and no sweets/chocolate. I'm sure some parents will still send in crap lunches, but at least it won't be a mars bar and a can of coke.
Schools that go to far and try to set nutritional guidelines they don't understand - no processed carbs, low fat, not cakes or whatever - should be ignored though.
Definitely worth going to see for yourself though. What appears on the menu isn't always what they get. And the "taster sessions" are their best work. You want to see what they actually serve. Also worth finding out if they pick and pre order or if it's pot luck on the day. There's been a few threads about kids living off chips and bread as they run out before the kid gets to the front.
I'll look on the website - schools round here use an external company that bring in the meals. DD had them before and I remember them being fairly homey type stuff but a bit pasta heavy. DS doesn't eat much cooked veg so we've agreed to add extra cucumber/carrot sticks etc to evening meals.
would you really want to teach children who have had a lunch of sugar and additives
it has been proven children do better at school when they have eaten a balanced healthy lunch, their concentration of better. not all parents bother to give this to their children
Poo? Ffs pop damn autocorrect
Why don't you check out the menu and ask if you can poo in and see what the meals are like? Easiest way to find out
Well I've just found out that thanks to a reduction in my hours (health reasons) my DCs are now entitled to free school meals. Am quite pleased as it will save some money of course and the time/energy (in short supply for me)... but will the dinners be healthy I wonder?
I was pleased that we'd got into a good habit with making healthy lunch boxes and the DCs were eating it all every day - not sure they will eat all of a hot meal especially my 4yo as he can be quite fussy.
I do understand the rules I just don't think that they are consistent enough as like you said the school still serves junk and parents still send in crap just presented differently so it gets through, despite still being junk.
In principle, I'm in favour of lunchbox rules, but it's hypocritical if school are serving junk
That's where it's all bloody wrong. Can't see how assuming all parents are idiots and unable to feed and de-louse our children properly is less discriminatory than telling the relevant parents. They are more likely to act surely if they know people are on to them than hiding behind the crowds.
You can talk to thatparent but it is now considered to be very poor to single out particular families or children for any reason.
Just like I am not allowed to tell a particular parent that their child has head lice. Even though I've seen them in their hair with my own eyes. I have to inform all parents to check for them.
The rules have to be in place and enforced for all children or it is seen as discrimination.
I do think that sometimes people lose the concept of balance in diet.
Most foods are not bad in moderation, as part of a balance diet. The odd chocolate bar, sausage roll or chocolate cookie will not kill you or make you fat as long as it is eaten as a part of diet rich in all the other necessary components. The occasional smoothie or can of coke will not, on it's own, make your teeth rotten.
Balance and moderation are key.
I think fruit smoothies have more sugar than coca cola and the acid will rot teeth.
We don't have juice fresh or diluting, at home or school, nor do we have fizzy drinks unless at party/ on holiday.
I've seen a lunch box that has just had a McDonald's happy meal stuffed into it! Don't tell me that parent doesn't need some rules about acceptables lunches for year olds.
So talk to that parent!
But the sweeteners in flavoured waters and kids drinks aren't good either. I'm not saying that fizzy drinks shouldn't be banned don't get me wrong, but surely people can see the flaws within the requests and how it very often doesn't make sense. It's been raised on here many a time that schools insist on fruit at break for example yet it's probably worse for them due to sugar spikes than slow release carbs fat and protein which they are not permitted to have as it has to be fruit. I'm just saying If things are going on to banned lists then the suggested alternatives need to be significantly "better" than what they are banning.
coke can be harmful to health... caffeine and phosphoric acid both prevent absorption of calcium, causing bone weakness. Because caffeine causes more calcium than usual to be excreted through urine it can contribute to kidney stones too....
Carbonic acid - the stuff that makes your tongue tingle in a fizzy drink - the acid made from the CO2 - is a major cause of dental enamel erosion in the Western world.
Sugar is not the only bad element of a fizzy drink - hence they are banned by most primary schools.
And of course the fact that in separate components things don't get through, eg a pot of natural yogurt and a small serving of plain choc chips to mix in. But a dairy milk chocolate yogurt with the side portion of choc is allowed because nothing dictates what flavor yogurts are allowed.
For example yes a can of coke is sugary shit but there's more sugar in a fruit shoot in than in the equivalent amount of coke. That's the point about it needing to make sense. There is often more sugar in kids drinks than there is in fizzy yet only fizzy is banned.
Of course done guidelines are needed, but schools should be under no illusion that they see r making any difference in that sense. Unless you start dictating exactly what each day should contain, a bag of harribo will really be the least of their worries after all they are merely transferring the time of day that the kid gets them. Could just as easily be eating them on the way to school. And whereas I have no problem with not including sweets and fizzy drink as those are a very rare treat for my dc, I do have a problem with having to wade through a load of "suggestions" which are no bloody better than what they banned, and for my child to sit and watch the massive cookies and muffins the school meal children get whilst hoping no one says anything about the home made fruit and seed flap jack along side the fruit and veg in dds lunch bag.
However caffeine, that sort of lunch is still preferable to a cheese stick, crisps, haribo and cola...so some guidelines (such as no fizzy drinks) are sensible.

National Memorial Day Concert
For over 50, retired Gen. Colin L. Powell has devoted his life to public service. Having held senior military and diplomatic positions across four presidential administrations, Powell's deep commitment to democratic values and freedom has been felt throughout the world.
The son of Jamaican immigrants, Powell was born in Harlem in April 1937 and raised in the South Bronx. He was educated in New York City public schools and, after graduating from Morris High School, attended the City College of New York where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Geology. It was not until he joined the Army ROTC program at CCNY that he discovered his calling and launched his military career. He received a commission as an Army 2nd Lt. upon graduation in 1958 and went on to serve in the United States Army for 35 years, rising to the rank of four-star general.
From 1987 to 1989, Powell served as President Ronald Reagan's national security advisor. He served from 1989 to 1993 as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff for both President George H.W. Bush and President Bill Clinton, and was not only the youngest officer and first ROTC graduate to ever serve in the position, but was also the first African American to do so. During his time as chairman, he oversaw 28 crises including the Panama intervention of 1989 and Operation Desert Storm in the victorious 1991 Persian Gulf War.
Under President George W. Bush, Powell was appointed the 65th secretary of state and unanimously confirmed by the U.S. Senate. As secretary of state, he led The U.S. Department of State in major efforts to address and solve regional and civil conflicts—in the Middle East, Sudan, Congo, Liberia, the Balkans, Cyprus, Haiti, Northern Ireland, Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere. In all areas, he used the power of diplomacy to build trust, forge alliances and then help transform these unstable regions into areas where societies and cultures have the potential to prosper. He also worked at the forefront of American efforts to advance economic and social development worldwide.
Among the many U.S. military awards and decorations Powell has received are the Defense Distinguished Service Medal, with 3 Oak Leaf Clusters; Army Distinguished Service Medal, with Oak Leaf Cluster; Defense Superior Service Medal; Legion of Merit, with Oak Leaf Cluster; Soldier's Medal; Bronze Star Medal and the Purple Heart. His civil awards include two Presidential Medals of Freedom, the President's Citizens Medal, the Congressional Gold Medal and the Secretary of Energy Distinguished Service Medal. In addition, he has also received awards from over 24 countries including a French Legion of Honor and an honorary knighthood bestowed by H.M. Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain.
Powell is the chair of the board of visitors of the Colin Powell School for Civic and Global Leadership at his alma mater, CCNY. The Powell School was inaugurated in May 2013 and stands alongside CCNY's other premiere named schools.He is the founder and chairman emeritus of America's Promise Alliance, dedicated to forging a strong and effective partnership committed to seeing that children have the fundamental resources they need to succeed.
Powell is a strategic advisor at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, the renowned Silicon Valley venture capital firm. He serves on the board of directors of Bloom Energy, an alternative energy company that provides unique on-site power generation systems utilizing an innovative new fuel cell technology. In March 2014, he joined the board of directors of Salesforce.com, the world's largest provider of Cloud-based customer relationship management software.
He is the chairman of the advisory board of Leeds Equity Partners, a private equity firm focused on investments in the education, training, information and business services industries. He is also chairman of the Eisenhower Fellowships, a cross-cultural program for emerging international leaders.
Powell is a member of the board of directors of the Council on Foreign Relations. He is on the executive leadership cabinet of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial and is the honorary chairman of the education center for the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. He also serves on the board of the Smithsonian Institute's African American Museum of History and Culture.
His autobiography, My American Journey, was a best-seller and has been published in more than a dozen different languages. Powell's second book, It Worked for Me, released May 2012, was an instant New York Timesbest-seller and reveals the lessons that shaped his life and career.
Powell is married to the former Alma Vivian Johnson of Birmingham, Alabama. They live in McLean, Virginia and have three children and four grandchildren.

Topaz Solar Farm goes onlineBY JONO KINKADEThe Topaz Solar Farm on the Carrizo Plain harnessed its first wave of electricity and sent it into the grid in mid-December. It's one of two solar plants sitting at the far southeastern corner of San Luis Obispo County. The plant hit a 300-megawatt milestone, making it the biggest utility-scale photovoltaic solar facility providing energy to an electrical grid in the world, for now, said Steve Krum, director of global corporate communications for First Solar, the company managing the project. Construction is still underway at the site, with completion expected in early 2015, when it will bring a full 550-megawatts online. Congresswoman Lois Capps (D-Santa Barbara) toured the site and the nearby California Valley Solar Ranch on Jan. 6 and touted them as proof of the potential for renewable energy in the United States. |

I enjoy photographing in Olympic National Park a lot. There is so much to shoot there. This image was made at the 2nd Beach location. It's a short walk through the woods that dumps you onto this wonderful beach. Hang around for sunset and you'll be treated to something special. This is an image made with a Phase One IQ160 with an ALPA camera. I did one exposure then processed it out at 2 stops over and under plus normal. It was the taken into PhotoMatix and tone mapped. What this does is recover the detail in highlights and shadows and then blends them together. A bit surreal and real at the same time.
Tag Archives: Olympic National Park
Olympic National Park Green
About two years ago visited Olympic National Park for a week of photography with some very close friends. It was great week with a lot on nice images. This picture is indicative of the week. Lots of waterfalls and lots of green.
2nd Beach Re-Visited
One of the most photographed beaches on the west coast is second beach in Olympic National PArk. It's a short hike to the beach and once there you'll understand why so many people shoot it. I wanted to try and get somethings a bit different. I placed the rock in the foreground and as the sunset, I made some captures. I knew I wanted to catch the waves in a particular way. I also knew that since I was shooting a Phase One IQ camera I would have a wide enough dynamic range retain details in highlights and shadows.
Hurricane Ridge
This is a shot made in Olympic National Park. One of my favorite National Parks, mainly because there is so much diverse landscape to shoot. I made this on Hurricane Ridge and off of a fire road I ventured to travel on. The sky was so blue that day and the color looked so incredible. Once I switched it over to BW though the image just jumped. Shot with a Phase One P65+.
Second Beach
Along the Washington and Oregon coast lines there are some classic places to take magnificent images of the coast and stacks and crashing surf. One of the more iconic places is Second Beach in Olympic National Park. A little bit of a hike through a well marked trail deposits you at this super location. Sunset being the best time to be there. I wanted my images to be different than others I saw before of this location. This was shot with an IQ180 and then processed out with one exposure to six levels at one stop increments. So I had a 3 stop over and under and one normal from one shot. The Phase One camera takes an incredible image with 12 plus stops dynamic range. So in one image I was able to hold all details in highlights and shadows. It's quite the moment when you look at the histogram of an image like this expecting clipping on highlights and shadows and the Phase One back shows a very nice histogram with toes at both ends. This allowed me to know I had the information to produce an image like this. Then using Photomatix I processed them together to make an HDR. I made adjustments so it didn't appear to grungy or fake. I retained enough detail in the rocks but didn't overdue it. I decided on a gold tone cast as that is how I remembered this image. After the image was processed and saved I opened it using NIK Viveza and did some desaturation in the clouds and darkened some corners. Finally I saved it, flattened it and then did a JPEG at a smaller dimension so I could post it on my blog and FaceBook. There were number of images from this one nights shoot that were keepers and this was one. I like the rock in the foreground and texture the water makes. Hope you enjoy it. This weekend I will make a 30×40 inch print.
Rain Forrest Magic
One of the most beautiful National Parks in America is Olympic National Park a short drive from Seattle. This was taken on the western part in the Hoh Rain Forrest. Shot with a Phase One IQ180 and a long shutter then worked a bit in post processing. A bit if a different look that works.
The Washington Coast
Part of the Olympic National Park runs along the coastline of Washington. Much of it is hard to access and some require a bit of a hike. This shot though is available from a parking lot. The whole coastline from Washington south though Oregon is just an amazing place to take photographs. I'll be doing a workshop in olympic National Park this september. This will be one of the places we go.

After many long hours of driving, it was time to call it a night. Not knowing whether Delta Hotels had a property in Banff, Alberta, I called the Delta Privilege reservation line and was quickly connected to the front desk of the Delta Banff Royal Canadian Lodge.
The young lady who answered the phone, Emily, quickly found me a rate I could live with (including free parking), then spent the next ten minutes on the phone with me giving me turn-by-turn directions from the main highway to the hotel front entrance. Much better than any GPS service. In an effort to help me find the property along a somewhat hotel-crowded thoroughfare, she also dispatched Jeremiah, the concierge, to the street to greet me.
Once inside the fabulous post and beam lobby, Emily quickly checked me in. Upon my saying I would love a hot chocolate, Emily arranged with Jeremiah to whip one up and within less than a minute I was standing at the front desk enjoying a hot chocolate and conversation with two of the friendliest staff I've ever encountered at a hotel.
I was upgraded to a large room with a fireplace in front of which I spent half an hour relaxing, and warming. Could have used another hot chocolate but didn't push my luck on that one.
The underground parking space was very clean and I felt no worries leaving my car there for the night.
In the morning, check-out was swift and friendly.
To my surprise, sometime in the night, staff in Guest Services had cleaned my windshield. I noticed a sign on exiting the parking garage that said "Good Morning. To help you enjoy our scenery, Guest Services has cleaned your windshield. Have a pleasant day! WOW! First time that has ever happened when I've been at a hotel.
I highly recommend all Delta properties but this one in particular has earned five big gold stars from me.

I have a B&M blower on a 383 Chevy in a "T" bucket. I too had heard all kinds of stories and was concerned about using a vac advance distributor and 350 auto trans.
I hooked the vac lines to the baseplate of the carb and have had no problems. Car is driven daily during good weather for many years. |
The easy answer is to use a modern trans that uses a throttle valve cable instead of a vacuum modulator. This is exactly why GM did away with vac modulators. The turbo and diesel engines would not supply the necessary vacuum, so the throttle valve was incorporated as a fully mechanical replacement for both the vac modulator and the kickdown.
As another option, B&M used to sell a cable-operated replacement for the vac modulator for exactly this sort of application. Don't know if you can still get one or not. |

What can we do to show ads considering the fact that most of us make money only via online advertisements?
What are your thoughts as a webmaster on this growing issue? Should we all get together and write to companies like Firefox or Google or the developers of such extensions. (I know that most of the people would not like that idea but I'm just throwing it out there)
That's certainly my attitude as a visitor. I'm willing to view ads in order to get free content. I am not willing to tolerate something like an 80/20 mix of ads to content!
But there will always be clueless idiots who run around claiming information wants to be free and use ad blockers indiscriminately.
I make money with the help of online ads - not with the ads alone. I actually provide product and value, which most MFA sites, and their ilk, do not. (And I've got got a stack of junk MFA sites, that, together, throw off a modest return that they do not deserve.)
The 'problem' of users that think certain sites or ads are irritating to no end is OUR problem. The user, IMO, has the right to do what they want with a website on their browser. They don't owe us a living. It is a problem that I don't believe will allow a mandated solution.
We can do what we want to the user and they have to take it? Never gonna happen. Users that spit in our eye make us better, more responsive, and all that good stuff. I play both sides. The internet pays my bills. I need users. I need customers. I need clicks. As a user, if I want to hack up the display of your site I will. Don't give me a reason to do so. There is a big market in empowering the user. Firefox is one of the best things to happen to the web. They put a full spread of torpedoes into Opera. Before Firefox, Opera was the 'geek' browser. If one had the technical skill, almost anything was possible. Firefox (defenders of liberty:)) made miracles possible for the average user with a click and restart.
