New CEO takes over Evraz during tumultuous time
Mike Rehwinkel must deal with a huge debt load and a depressed market for steel
- Erik Siemers
- Business Journal staff writer
(Page 3 of 3)
It's a task as herculean as any faced by an Oregon CEO.
On Wednesday, Mike Rehwinkel took the reins of Evraz North America Inc., a company that once had $5 billion in revenue, but is coming out of "survival mode" because of the worldwide financial meltdown and the ensuing collapse of construction markets.
"Mike uses a word I use: 'coach,'" said Jim Declusin, who is retiring after six years as the company's CEO. "At the end of the day, CEO is just a title. The coaching is where the work comes in."
Rehwinkel joined the company — formerly known as Oregon Steel Mills Inc. — after nearly 10 years at Atlanta-based Georgia-Pacific LLC, the last three of which he served as president of Georgia-Pacific Wood Products LLC. Before that he spent 23 years in financial and management roles, mostly in the paper industry.
Now he is the leader of what Declusin calls one of the better-performing steel companies in North America.
He still faces an uphill battle. Last year was one of the worst in the industry's history.
"First and foremost, 2009 was a horrible year globally," said John Anton, director of steel services for Waltham, Mass.-based research firm IHS Global Insight. This year "will not be much better anywhere, except in China."
Steelmakers slashed production last year because of plummeting demand. At one point, U.S. mills were operating at 35 percent capacity.
"In 2009, the steel mills didn't know how deep to cut production," Anton said. "They just decided to be safe rather than sorry and cut production down to the bone."
At Evraz North America production fell nearly 24 percent to about 3.9 million tons. It has a maximum production capacity of 5 million tons.
Its work force has fallen from 4,710 in October 2008 to 3,365 today. Its Portland work force has fallen to 900 from 435 in that same time period. Evraz North America doesn't break out revenue, but officals have said the company will again generate $5 billion in annual revenue once steel markets recover.
At parent company Evraz Group SA revenue fell 58 percent — from $17.1 billion to $7.1 billion — through nine months, the most recent financial data available for the publicly held Russian company.
At the same time, Evraz Group's debt reached in excess of $7 billion after years in acquisition mode.
Declusin said the company's debt hasn't hurt North American operations. Every steel maker that made acquisitions in recent years is in a similar position, he said.
How soon the company can generate $5 billion in revenue again "depends on how fast the economy turns itself around," Declusin said.
By most indications, that may take awhile. Anton said only China is poised for growth in 2010, meaning world markets will remain depressed.
Another immediate task for Rehwinkel is fully integrating Evraz's most recent acquisitions, a project that stalled when the company went into what Declusin called "survival mode" last year.
At Georgia-Pacific, Rehwinkel led a division that, at its peak, employed 13,500 across 60 mills.
Dennis Hardman, president of the Tacoma, Wash.-based American Plywood Association, said Rehwinkel — who spent more than a year as the group's chairman — was viewed as a leader in the industry.
"He was very focused on expanding markets and making sure the quality of the products were first rate," Hardman said.
Rehwinkel, a native of Mobile, Ala., acknowledges he has a steep learning curve. But he describes himself as a detail-oriented leader skilled at managing and communicating within a large organization.
"I don't know a lot about how you make steel," he said. "But hopefully I can bring a lot of coaching and manufacturing insight while I'm here."
Rehwinkel will at first lean heavily on Declusin, who agreed to help in the transition.
Declusin is capping a 42-year career that includes time with Kaiser Steel Corp. and California Steel Industries Inc.
He took over what was then Oregon Steel Mills Inc. six years ago, helping revive the regional steel producer after it bottomed out at $1 per share in December 2000.
Oregon Steel was acquired in 2007 by Evraz Group for $2.35 billion.
Since then, the company went on a buying spree that made it one of North America's biggest steel producers. In January 2008 Evraz bought Delaware-based Claymont Steel for $564.8 million, followed by the June 2008 acquisition of Ipsco Inc.'s Canadian tubular businesses for $2.4 billion.
Declusin said the manufacturing of steel and wood aren't as different as it may seem.
"I can close my eyes and think about a rolling mill making steel pipe and a rolling mill making paper," Declusin said. "They're both very similar."

Because of this pressure, unfortunately many marketers fall to lazy marketing tactics. They quit creating their own content and start curating and sharing other helpful content from leaders in their industry. Curation can be good. However, many lazy marketers start copying, pasting and regurgitating other people's content. They copy, tweak and pretend it is their when in reality they have often lost the real meaning of it without even knowing. They wind up hurting their brand more than helping.
Though curation can be an impactful and excellent way to establish your brand online as well as serve the needs of your audience, it requires both art and science to see real benefit.
Is anything really new anyway? Does content have to be new to be relevant? How can you curate content from other industry leaders and still be relevant to your audience? Where do you draw the line of endorsing other people's content vs supporting their brand more than your own? What are the negatives of content regurgitation?
If these are some of the questions you have then take a listen to the 105th episode of the Social Zoom Factor podcast to learn the difference between creation, curation and regurgitation of content. I also include tips and strategies to develop your own curation platform and ensure you are not simply regurgitating content that will hurt you more than help.

I substituted tilapia fillets for tuna steaks, so the fish cooked a little quicker. Served it with a green salad and a simple sesame dressing. A solid recipe; I'll make it again in the future. Good with a light beer.

Mint isn't a traditional Irish flavor, but the color of the green mint mousse in this tart lends itself so well to St. Patrick's Day celebrations, I had to tie them together somehow!

I've just finished a total re-write [1] of one of Apple's example applications and I am going to release my code as source only on GitHub, under a BSD license.
Adding the BSD license text to the .h and .m files is easy, and I can add copyright information to the .png assets that I will be including, but I am stumped as to how I can add the requisite license information to the xib files. XCode regenerates the files after an edit, so anything manually added to an xml comment will be stripped off.
I'd like to add the license to the nib files for completeness but I am not hung up on doing it - so can anyone offer any advice?
[1] The App was AccelerometerGraph and the re-write included displaying each accelerometer channel on a separate graph, providing additional signal inputs (sine, step and impulse) as well as additional filters (Butterworth 1st and 2nd order low high and bandpass).

I stayed for a week at the Gondola. Overall, for the price, it's excellent. Perhaps not the cleanest, but it was cleaner than a 4 star hotel I stayed at recently in Amman. I would probably go back there regularly, as long as the room stays acceptable clean. There was one room I refused because it had an overpowering mustiness. The room I ended up in was ok, given the age of the building, and as long as u keep the window open to keep the room fresh.

By Sandhya Raman The digital music industry, which relies heavily on the mobile channel, is already a fractured and intensely competitive market. There are established players like Apple (...
Subscription-based and free Internet radio services like Pandora and Spotify accounted for 23 percent of average weekly music listening time among U.S. consumers between the ages of 13 and 35 during the fourth quarter of 2012, up from 17 percent in the year-ago period thanks to increasing mobile engagement, according to a new NPD Group report.
Amazon's is the latest digital media giant reportedly considering a streaming music service, following speculation that both Apple and Google are both readying efforts to challenge established players like Spotify, Pandora and Rhapsody.

Resort Cotton Bath Towel 2303 2562
Best Towels Ever These are by far the best towels I have ever had! THey are absorbent and thick and fluffy and the monogram is the best! I have ordered sets for all my friends. Great price for the quality! January 21, 2010
Awesome Towels These towels are the best, very soft and absorbent. January 21, 2010
Towels I purchased bath and hand towels recently and was very pleased with them. The quality is wonderful. The towels are soft and very absorbent. They seem to get softer with each washing. And the towels were monogramed for free, which was a nice touch. I would definitely recommend these towels to anyone and will be purchasing more in the future; although I think the towels will hold up extremely well. January 21, 2010
excellent purchase I purchase many towels. These are the best quality I have had in a long time. Thick and thirsty towels. I will purchase more. January 21, 2010
Resort Cotton Towels I was sick of the towels in my house - they weren't holding up and they always felt stiff after being washed, so I decided to splurge. These towels cost more than I have spent on towels in the past, but I think this was a good way to spend money. As far as I can tell, these should last me a very long time and they are soft and absorbent after washing. January 21, 2010
Exquisite! These towels were gorgeous and better than I could have hoped, not having bought this collection before. The engraving helped display the wonderful quality. I would definitely buy these again for all my needs. January 21, 2010
Bath Towel These towels look beautiful and feel even better. In the past I have purchased pretty towels and have not been please with their absorbency and softness. These towel you get everything, looks, feel and function. January 20, 2010
Great towels I love the towels so much I went back for more. They are a great weight - I like them to feel heavy - like they have some substance. The free monogramming was also a hit and makes the towels look so elegant. I am very, very pleased with my purchase! January 20, 2010
LOVE MY TOWEL I purchased one of these towels (monogrammed) for a decorative accent for a guest bathroom, but once I saw how true the color was (chocolate brown) and felt how soft, I am going to purchase these for my other 2 bathrooms for everyday use. THEY ARE WONDERFUL! January 20, 2010
Best towels If you are searching for a towel that you look forward to using...this is the one. January 14, 2010
impressed with quality Monogram towel was very plush and soft..very happy. January 13, 2010
Best luxury towels I've found Good linens are my favorite luxury, and pulled loops on towels are my pet peeve. For many years now, I have bought towels from the finest sources, looking especially for one thing in a quality towel: loops that do not pull loose when the towel is washed. I have only found this with Frontgate's World Class Resort towels, and now own three sets of them. As new colors that match my decor become available (like a deep green with more blue than yellow) I will buy more. January 12, 2010
Excellant Purchase The spa towels I purchased for my daughter who is getting married are just the best. The size is better than any other towels I've bought and the quality is excellant. January 11, 2010
Resort Towels These are the best towels ever. They are soft and very fluffy. I bought more as gifts for relatives. I love them. January 9, 2010
Resort Towels These towels were fantastic for the price! If I had the room, I would buy several more. January 7, 2010
excellent quality will be purchasing more in the future January 7, 2010
Best Purchase Ever My husband rarely notices changes in the home, but immediately commented on the plushness of the towels. He loves them, as do I. January 6, 2010
Happy with products I am very happy with the bathroom products I have purchased. They make my bathroom look elegant. I plan on buying more items for my bathroom and other rooms in my house from Frontgate. Thank You January 1, 2010
Lovely, lovely towels These towels are fabulous. They are very plush and the embroidery looks great. The bath sheets are HUGE. I am extremely pleased with this purchase. Well worth every penny. December 31, 2009
Spa Bath Sheets These are the very best bath sheets ever. I did not have any as good in any hotel/spa. I bought them for my adult children as soon as we had used them. December 29, 2009
Supurb bath towels I have purchased 4 sets of bath towels and really enjoy using them. They are soft and sumptious - my favorite towel. Free monogramning of the towel makes them an even better buy. December 26, 2009
Fantastic, great service and super quality product products very well presented and easy to order. fast service and exceptionaly fine quality. Ill be with you for a long time pollet. December 25, 2009
Discontinued colors of Resort Towels I bought four sets of the Resort Towels and a complete set of matching rugs in the color Vine, and now that I need to replace the washcloths, Vine is no longer available. The only option given by your phone salesperson was to purchase washcloths in the color Meadow, which does not match well. I was also unable to purchase matching rugs to the burgundy colored towels I bought this year, so I have another issue with product colors you have eliminated from your inventory. The quality of the towels and rugs is wonderful, but your failure to stock these products in the color I selected previously leaves me disappointed in my decision to purchase from you. December 24, 2009
Excellent product; exceeded expectations; good service. December 18, 2009
WONDERFUL THE PERSONALIZED BATH TOWELS ARE WONDERFUL; SOFT AND ABSORBANT, AND YOU FEEL LIKE YOU ARE IN A SPA WHEN WRAPPED IN IT. LOVE THEM. December 17, 2009
Bath Towels I'm a scrutinizing consumer and call it like is. I've bought Calvin Klein, Lauren and other brands in the past and have never been satisfied with them. They fade quickly, thin over time, and look like rags after a year. These towels, however, are as close to perfect as possible. They are sturdy, soft and plush. You feel the high quality wash after wash. I've told countless people about them. Highly recommended product and great value for the money. December 10, 2009
Finest towels anywhere! I've ordered several of these towels in the hand towel size, and they are a great value for the money. Much larger than most hand towels, and exquisitely made, they are thick, thirsty, and of the highest quality. Having the free monogram is wonderful. We remodeled our bathroom, and now have grand hand towels for the rack. Anyone who purchases these towels will not be disappointed. They are beautiful!! November 19, 2009
Lovely Bath Towels Very pretty, soft, lovely bath towels! Great color too. October 27, 2009
Nice quality We purchased the monogrammed resort towels and the color was true to what was in the picture and they are of very nice quality. It's oversized and thick but still dries quickly after being washed October 25, 2009
My Favorite Towels These are the best towels I have ever used. I have them in all my bathrooms and would never buy any other kind after using these. Love them!!!!!! October 24, 2009

Basemark™ ES 2.0 Taiji Free provides a scientifically designed and reliable game scene – Taiji Girl – to test the 3D graphics performance of the embedded device. High-detail 3D content in Taiji Girl generates a workload that taxes OpenGL ES 2.0 implementation in a realistic, visually stunning way. After running the benchmark, users can easily check how the performance of their device compares to other devices with the integrated Power Board online service.
Basemark™ ES 2.0 Taiji Free product and Power Board service are targeted only for consumer and independent media use, and any commercial use is strictly forbidden.
What's New
3DMark Ice Storm Benchmark
3DMark - The Gamer's Benchmark
3DMark is a graphics benchmark used by millions of people, hundreds of hardware review sites and many of the world's leading technology companies. It's the industry standard gaming performance benchmark, a professional-grade testing tool available to you for free.
• The world's most popular benchmark test since 1997.
• Developed by Futuremark, the benchmark experts.
• Test your device's GPU and CPU performance.
• Compare the fastest Android, iOS, Windows and Windows RT devices.
• 100% free. No ads. No in-app purchases. No restrictions.
Accurate and impartial benchmark tests
Use 3DMark Ice Storm for device-to-device comparisons of mainstream mobile devices. Ice Storm is an OpenGL ES 2.0 benchmark test that uses fixed off-screen rendering at 720p then scales the output to fit the native display resolution of your device. Ice Storm includes two graphics tests designed to stress the GPU performance of your device and a physics test to stress its CPU performance.
Use 3DMark Ice Storm Extreme for device-to-device comparisons of high performance mobile devices. Ice Storm Extreme raises the off-screen rendering resolution to 1080p and uses higher quality textures and post-processing effects in the graphics tests to create a more demanding load for the latest smartphones and tablets.
Use 3DMark Ice Storm Unlimited for chip-to-chip comparisons of the hardware inside your device without vertical sync, display resolution scaling and other operating system factors affecting the result. In Unlimited mode the rendering engine uses a fixed time step between frames and renders exactly the same frames in every run on every device. The frames are rendered in 720p resolution "offscreen" while the display is updated with small frame thumbnails every 100 frames to show progress.
Benchmarks you can trust
3DMark and PCMark are the only mobile benchmarks protected by rules for manufacturers. What's more, all our benchmarks are supported by detailed technical guides that explain exactly what's being measured and how the scores are calculated. Better benchmarking starts here.

Benchmark for Android
Each test is run in a native context, coded in C++, and in a managed/Dalvik context, coded in Java. Both contexts always execute the same computational workload.
All test results are reported in milliseconds (ms). A lower score is better than a higher one.
On a single core device a single thread is used to execute all tests.
On a multi-core device, multi-threading is used. Three passes will be performed on a multi-core device. The total computational workload is the same for each pass. The first will use a single thread. The second will use two threads, and the third will use four threads. The total execution time for fast devices, which are usually multi-core, may take longer than slow devices because the entire suite is executed three times.
Your score is the sum of the execution times of all tests, both native and managed. On multi-core devices, the minimum sum of the three passes will be used.
After you run the tests, you may compare your results to other phones or tablets. This requires an Internet connection. You will be prompted to enter a short description of your device. Enter a short description and include your initials. That way, you and others will be able to better identify your results.
The app will save up to 10 sets of results, which you may retrieve and compare. Overclockers and ROM builders love this feature. You may also compare your results to others.
The app includes native binaries for armeabi, armeabi-v7a and x86.
This application does not include, display or use any ads.
Benchmark & Tuning (Full)
This app fully supports multi-core devices and gives you the possibility to choose between single-threaded or multi-threaded tests.
If you want, you can quickly set your cpu frequency and governor, instead of having to use other cpu app.
Submit your scores to our online database and compete with your friends! If you are offline you still see all scores because of the offline score storage.
Enjoy and have a good score!

Weird Al Gets "Tacky"
by Mike Stanz
posted Jul 15 2014 5:00AM
Since it was released in the latter part of 2013, Pharrell's "Happy" has arguably been the most copied and parodized song and video of 2014.
So why did it take the King of Parody – Weird Al Yankovic – so long to come up with "Tacky?"
Here it is, eight months after the original's release, and Weird Al's just getting around to it?
But, according to the man himself, it's the first of eight videos in eight days from Weird Al's new album.
So stay tuned…

So with all this talk of cream ale, and summer being pretty much here (upper 90's yesterday) I was sipping on dude's pub ale and a thought came to me, English cream ale? why not! this would be my first attempt at a light hybrid style beer so I was wondering if anyone would chime in on the recipe. I'm hoping that the MO won't overpower the clean-ness, I could mix it with 6-row, but I'm not sure.Cream of England
8# Marris Otter. 80%
1.5# Flaked Corn. 15%
0.5# Flaked Oats. 5%
1.25oz EKGs @ FWH
Fermented with Nottingham @55F
Comments? Concerns? Random Insults?
Sounds good to me. If you want to dry it out a bit more to compensate for the MO, drop a pound of malt and add pound of simple cane sugar.
I've done it in the past with great results and a very light beer. Jamil's cream ale recipe includes cane sugar as well.
The only problem with the oats is that you'll have a longer chill haze period.
*******Check Out My Rolling KegeratorBierMuncher Tried & Trues: Tits-Up IIPA (3-Time Medalist), Black Pearl Porter, Kona Pale Ale, Outer Limits IPA, Centennial Blonde (4.0%), Nierra Sevada (SNPA), SWMBO Slayer Belgian Blonde,
Ok, so more like this?
1.5# Flaked Corn (15%)
1# Cane Sugar (10%)
Looks pretty good.
Use a nice low mash temp (149) and let it rest for 90 minutes and it will really attenuate low and be very crisp.


text: I think this is a great idea that the private aviation industry is adapting to the hard times. These planes seem that, although more expensive, will end up flying cheaper and more efficient. Also the jets seem to be safer because the company is breaking the planes down and checking them over to ensure safety.

DEFINITION of 'Bermuda Option'
A type of exotic option that can be exercised only on predetermined dates, typically every month. Bermuda options are a combination of American and European options. American options are exercisable anytime between the purchase date and the date of expiration. European options, conversely, are exercisable only at the date of expiration. Bermuda options are exercisable at the date of expiration, and on certain specified dates that occur between the purchase date and the date of expiration. Other exotic options include binary options and quantity-adjusting options, often called quanto options for short.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Bermuda Option'
Options are financial derivatives that offer buyers the right, but not the obligation, to buy (call) or sell (put) a security at a particular price on or before a specified date. Bermuda options provide writers with more control over when the options can be exercised, while giving the buyer a contract that is less expensive than an American option, and not as restrictive as a European option. Bermuda options are typically less expensive than American options, because of the larger premiums that American options demand due to their flexibility.
