Smith Electric Vehicles is alive and operating, even if it's not building trucks for a while, according to Bryan Hensel, the specialty builder's CEO and co-founder, refuting reports that the company had closed.
A "strategic decision" to stop money-losing production around the first of the year resulted in layoffs of assembly line workers, he said, but the plant and office in Kansas City, Mo., remains staffed with about 100 engineering, manufacturing, sales, marketing and support people.
Component manufacturing is being moved from the United Kingdom to Malaysia, where motors, controllers and other parts will be made at less cost and with higher quality, Hensel said. As before, components will be shipped to Kansas City for final assembly when production resumes in mid summer.
New Generation 3 trucks will include 16,000- to 26,000-pound-GVW Newton low-cab-forward and stripped chassis models, he said. Generation 2 trucks produced until the shutdown "were built to validate the technology and get quantities of trucks out there to validate that it was what we and customers needed."
The Edison model that used a Ford Transit van chassis has been discontinued, even though the new Transit will be built locally, in Kansas City. "We sat down with Ford and decided that it wasn't going to make sense to electrify the new Transit," Hansel said.
Outside investors are being added to financial backers who include current stockholders, he said. The amount of backing will be announced in May.
Previous operations incurred heavy loses, but "we feel very confident that we will have a positive return on our investment," Hansel continued. "The previous supply chain was low volume. Now it's time to go from hundreds of trucks produced to thousands. We think demand will be higher than ever, but we're not publicly stating any production forecasts."
Asked why calls to Smith Electric's Kansas City office were not picked up last Friday, as we previously reported, Hansel explained that the company was closed for Good Friday and IT problems crippled answering devices. A test call made Tuesday was promptly fielded by a lady who cheerfully said, "Oh, yes. We're here!"

[Show abstract]
[Hide abstract]
Spurred by recent progress in materials chemistry and drug delivery, stimuli-responsive devices that deliver a drug in spatial-, temporal- and dosage-controlled fashions have become possible. Implementation of such devices requires the use of biocompatible materials that are susceptible to a specific physical incitement or that, in response to a specific stimulus, undergo a protonation, a hydrolytic cleavage or a (supra)molecular conformational change. In this Review, we discuss recent advances in the design of nanoscale stimuli-responsive systems that are able to control drug biodistribution in response to specific stimuli, either exogenous (variations in temperature, magnetic field, ultrasound intensity, light or electric pulses) or endogenous (changes in pH, enzyme concentration or redox gradients).

A new paclitaxel (Ptx) prodrug was designed by coupling a single terpene unit (MIP) to the hydroxyl group in position 2' of the drug molecule. Using a squalene derivative of polyethylene glycol (SQ-PEG) as surface active agent, the resulting bioconjugate (PtxMIP) self-assembled in water leading to the formation of stable nanoparticles (PtxMIP_SQ-PEG NPs) with an impressively high drug loading (82%). In vivo, the anticancer activity of this novel Ptx nanoassembled prodrug was compared to the conventional Cremophor-containing formulation (Taxol) on a murine model of breast cancer lung metastasis induced by intravenous injection of 4T1 tumor cells, genetically modified to stably express firefly luciferase. Cell growth was assessed noninvasively by bioluminescence imaging (BLI) which enabled monitoring tumor metastatic burden in the same animals. PtxMIP_SQ-PEG nanoparticles slowed metastatic spread and were better tolerated than the Cremophor-containing formulation (i.e., free drug), thus demonstrating the potential of terpene-based nanoassembled prodrugs in the improvement of the therapeutic index of Ptx in balb/c mice.

Unprotected thioglycosides were effective nucleophiles for Ni(0) -catalyzed CS bond-forming reaction with functionalized (hetero)aryl, alkenyl, and alkynyl halides. The functional-group tolerance on the electrophilic partner was typically high and the anomeric selectivities of the thioglycosides were high in all cases. The efficiency of this general procedure was well-demonstrated by the synthesis of 4-methyl-7-thioumbelliferyl-β-D-cellobioside (MUS-CB).

Autophagy modulates cell migration and β1 integrin membrane recycling.

[Hide abstract]
Cell migration is dependent on a series of integrated cellular events including the membrane recycling of the extracellular matrix receptor integrins. In this paper, we investigate the role of autophagy in regulating cell migration. In a wound-healing assay, we observed that autophagy was reduced in cells at the leading edge than in cells located rearward. These differences in autophagy were correlated with the robustness of MTOR activity. The spatial difference in the accumulation of autophagic structures was not detected in rapamycin-treated cells, which had less migration capacity than untreated cells. In contrast, the knockdown of the autophagic protein ATG7 stimulated cell migration of HeLa cells. Accordingly, atg3(-/-) and atg5(-/-) MEFs have greater cell migration properties than their wild-type counterparts. Stimulation of autophagy increased the co-localization of β1 integrin-containing vesicles with LC3-stained autophagic vacuoles. Moreover, inhibition of autophagy slowed down the lysosomal degradation of internalized β1 integrins and promoted its membrane recycling. From these findings, we conclude that autophagy regulates cell migration, a central mechanism in cell development, angiogenesis, and tumor progression, by mitigating the cell surface expression of β1 integrins.

[Hide abstract]
Introduction: Sildenafil citrate is a potent, selective phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor approved for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and plays an important role in the management of the disease. Areas covered: In this review, we focus on the current available information on the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, clinical efficacy and safety of sildenafil citrate in PAH through a MEDLINE literature search. Comparison of sildenafil citrate with tadalafil, another phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor was also performed. Expert opinion: In the last few years, considerable progress has been made in the understanding and treatment of PAH. Sildenafil citrate has multiple advantages and whether it is first-line treatment alone or in combination for the mild form of the disease, it is one of the treatments of choice. In terms of its future use, more studies are still needed to better evaluate the benefit/risk balance of sildenafil citrate in pediatric populations.

Pathogenesis of human enterovirulent bacteria: lessons from cultured, fully differentiated human colon cancer cell lines.
Vanessa Liévin-Le Moal
Alain L Servin
[Show abstract]
[Hide abstract]
SUMMARY Hosts are protected from attack by potentially harmful enteric microorganisms, viruses, and parasites by the polarized fully differentiated epithelial cells that make up the epithelium, providing a physical and functional barrier. Enterovirulent bacteria interact with the epithelial polarized cells lining the intestinal barrier, and some invade the cells. A better understanding of the cross talk between enterovirulent bacteria and the polarized intestinal cells has resulted in the identification of essential enterovirulent bacterial structures and virulence gene products playing pivotal roles in pathogenesis. Cultured animal cell lines and cultured human nonintestinal, undifferentiated epithelial cells have been extensively used for understanding the mechanisms by which some human enterovirulent bacteria induce intestinal disorders. Human colon carcinoma cell lines which are able to express in culture the functional and structural characteristics of mature enterocytes and goblet cells have been established, mimicking structurally and functionally an intestinal epithelial barrier. Moreover, Caco-2-derived M-like cells have been established, mimicking the bacterial capture property of M cells of Peyer's patches. This review intends to analyze the cellular and molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis of human enterovirulent bacteria observed in infected cultured human colon carcinoma enterocyte-like HT-29 subpopulations, enterocyte-like Caco-2 and clone cells, the colonic T84 cell line, HT-29 mucus-secreting cell subpopulations, and Caco-2-derived M-like cells, including cell association, cell entry, intracellular lifestyle, structural lesions at the brush border, functional lesions in enterocytes and goblet cells, functional and structural lesions at the junctional domain, and host cellular defense responses.

The monoaminergic tripartite Synapse: a Putative Target for Currently Available Antidepressant Drugs.
G Quesseveur
A M Gardier
B P Guiard
[Show abstract]
[Hide abstract]
Antidepressant drugs such as the serotonin (5-HT)/norepinephrine (NE) and/or dopamine (DA) reuptake inhibitors have been shown to activate the monoaminergic neurotransmission in various brain regions such as the amygdala, frontal cortex or hippocampus. Although this property is well established, the post-synaptic mechanisms by which these pharmacological agents would exert their therapeutic activity in major depressive disorders (MDD) is as yet not fully understood. Recent clinical and preclinical studies indicate that the density and reactivity of glia and more particularly of astrocytes are reduced in MDD patients. This data along with the fact that astrocytes express monoaminergic transporters and receptors make these cells putative targets for antidepressant treatments. Accordingly, in vitro evidence demonstrates that the application of various classes of antidepressant drugs on rodents primary cultures of astrocytes elicits a wide spectrum of responses from the rise in cytosolic calcium concentrations, as a marker of cellular activity, to the release of glucose metabolites, gliotransmitters and neurotrophic factors. Remarkably, antidepressant drugs also have the peculiarity to attenuate the release of inflammatory molecules from reactive astrocytes or microglia suggesting that part of their beneficial effects in depressed patients or animal models of depression might result from their ability to regulate the synthesis and release of psychoactive substances acting on both pre- and post-synaptic neurons. Among the many long-term targets of antidepressant drugs, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has been well studied owing to its positive influence on adult hippocampal neurogenesis, synaptogenesis and local serotonergic tone. The present review will illustrate how the concept of the tripartite synapse, classically associated to different forms of plasticity involving glutamate, may be expanded to the monoaminergic systems to regulate antidepressant drug responses? An emphasis will be given on recent in vivo data supporting that hippocampal astrocytes may act in concert with neurons to release BDNF under pharmacological conditions and thereby regulate different facets of anxiolytic-/antidepressant-like activities through neurogenesis-dependent and independent mechanisms.

Brent Budowsky: Senate Republicans are on the brink of launching a filibuster against the nomination of Richard Cordray to lead the new consumer agency that will could propel Sen. Elizabeth Warren to a national stature from the Senate reminiscent of Robert F. Kennedy.

Brent Budowsky: It would be an historic mistake and profound legal wrong for an unelected court to again interfere in American elections, after many highly controversial political decisions by party-line votes from a hyper-political, hyper-activist court in which the foundations of our two elected branches are dominated by our one unelected branch.

Christopher Heine | March 5, 2010 | Comments
Search brand picks up 400,000 new 'fans' in 19 hours and immediately uses increased presence.
Traffic schmaffic. Bing now has Google's number - when it comes to Facebook "fans" at least.
Indeed, if part of Microsoft's plan when it recently signed FarmVille to MSN Games was to gain a bigger Facebook presence, then the deal proved to pay serious dividends over the course of just 19.5 hours this week.
From 12:40 p.m. on Tuesday to 8:11 a.m. on Wednesday, Bing ran a sponsored ad on the bottom right of FarmVille's main page. The ad copy stated that if the players became Facebook "fans" of the brand, they'd receive three units of "Farm Cash" - which is the popular Zynga game's virtual currency. Before the ad launched on Tuesday, Bing had 117,000 "fans." The next morning, the number had exploded to 539,000.
Its Facebook fans currently total 564,000, which puts Bing ahead of search rival Google's 524,000. Facebook metrics firm AppData shows that 28.7 million people played FarmVille on Tuesday. Therefore, 1 to 2 percent of players clicked through the ad to become fans of Bing.
Microsoft would only comment generally about the ad placement, but it's clear the campaign had more to do with influencing FarmVille's huge audience to use Bing search then with beating Google's fan count.
For instance, the sponsored ad, which was facilitated by SocialVibe's technology, employed the following copy: "Get fun FarmVille tips on Bing now!" And the Microsoft-owned brand has since attempted to convert "fans" into traffic at the search site.
On Wednesday, it authored the following Facebook post: "Any FarmVille fans out there? Try using Bing to get the most out of your crops and animals. We've got great results to help you make better decisions in FarmVille."
The last sentence appeared as a hyperlink to a search results page, where players could research the game to theoretically enhance their score. Six-hundred and eighty-two "fans" commented on the post, while more than 1,200 hit the "like" button.
According to the Microsoft spokesperson, "When thinking about how we get more people to experience Bing's unique ability to help make decisions, we recognized that we needed to utilize message channels in a variety of media. While our online and offline ad efforts are driving people to dive into Bing, we also wanted to reach an active online audience, and Facebook and Farmville provide a unique forum to drive awareness and trial."
Meanwhile, Google's traffic is still beating Bing by a score of 14 billion to 1.3 billion when it comes to search queries for January, according to research firm comScore.

...for my Travel EPP/Sewing Kit pattern.
Whew! I believe my pattern is finally finished and saved in a format that I can use to list it for sale on Craftsy. However, since this is my first BIG pattern, I wouldn't DREAM of putting it up for sale until someone with a little bit more experience than I has a chance to test it out! I currently have one tester lined up and am looking for one more.
If you are interested in testing this pattern, please email me through my profile with your name and email address. I will pick one name out of a hat and that winner will be emailed the PDF file. Please note, I WILL NOT be able to sell this pattern outside of the US due to the EU VAT issue. So, if you are outside of the US and want to make my kit, this may be your only chance to get your hands on the pattern...for now.
Thanks in advance! Oh, and I would ask whoever wins to make the kit following the pattern and give me an HONEST evaluation and make any suggestions you think would improve its usefulness to those who purchase the pattern. Also, I will need your feedback by April 15th as I would like to get this listed in my shop in plenty of time for those who want to give this kit as a Mother's Day present here in the US.

My table topper is FINISHED and I am absolutely, positively LOVIN' IT. If you read my previous post, you know that in an attempt to wash off a stain with a slightly damp cloth, I started the fruit colors running onto the white. I just about DIED! I did, however, think fast and quickly stuck the topper into a washer full of cold water, with a Color Catcher and used a tiny bit of quilt soap to wash it. Whew! That was CLOSE! However, the stain is gone...as is the fading of the blue onto the white!
I am so thrilled with the look of this table topper and the fact that I based the design on the teeny bit of free fruit fabric I had on hand. I find that using only what I have on hand really leads to some WONDERFUL creative designs. Additionally, all of the other fabric was free as well...and the batting was left over from a previous quilt. My kind of project!!!
I even love the back of this table topper. And I love the post washing "crinkle" of the quilted piece.
I do still have small amounts of different types of food fabrics and may make this topper again in brighter orange and yellow fruit fabric. It won't match my blue and burgundy kitchen, but it will sure spell SUMMER!
I had gotten a spot on the table topper I am making so I got a clean white cloth, slightly damp and tried to get the spot out. Oh, NO. The colored fruit fabric began to run onto the white fabric. I immediately stopped and put the table topper into the washer filled with cold water, a Color Catcher and used quilt soap to wash it. I am hoping that it will come out of the wash looking fine. DANG. The fabric piece I had was so small I didn't consider washing it, even though it was blueberries, strawberries and raspberries...blue and red...highly likely to run. DANG! I could KICK myself!

Probably a year ago now I purchased a panel called Therapy In Session. I fell in love with this panel... mostly because quilting IS what keeps me sane; and secondly because I wanted the opportunity to try "coloring" a black and white panel before turning it into a quilted wall hanging. For Christmas, my Dear Aunt bought me a set of Prismacolor Pencils. I have been "dying" to begin work on what I hope will be a bright, HAPPY reminder that quilting IS my therapy AND my relaxation! No fretting over perfect points allowed!
Today the stars aligned perfectly and I have a small chunk of free time and barely any tremor. Wowsers, my hands are STEADY! Yesterday, however, was a completely different story and even my normally flowing signature was stunted and jerky. Pffft...annoying! But...I digress.
Seizing the opportunity I pulled out the panel and pencils, It's the PERFECT time to attempt a little coloring within the lines. These pencils (unlike others I have had in the past) are wonderfully smooth flowing over the fabric and the colors luscious without having to press hard. Following a tutorial by Jenny of Elefantz, I attempted to color in a "circular motion" to tint all sides of the threads.
With a little "touch up" here and there my coverage is fairly uniform. I understand from Jenny's tutorial that the colors will become richer once they are heat set. I can't wait to see the final product! But, wait I will. This is a "long term" project saved for the occasional days of "perfect celestial alignment" when I can stay inside the lines. I think I'll color a few more areas before I head downstairs to figure out something for dinner tonight. Sigh... Who knew a childhood pastime could still be so much fun?!!

The next step will be to hoop it up and complete the machine embroidery in the snowball blocks! I've got a few appointments this week, so I may not get to that until the weekend. Then it is off to quilt ESS (Every Stinkin' Seam as Cindy Needham would say) and then a bit of FMQ. So far I'm lovin' it...

Remember on Friday when I sorted through my first box of fabrics (food themed), I came across fabric that I thought would make a GREAT table topper for my kitchen? Well, I have almost finished the table topper and this is ALL I have left of the fabric! I only had two smallish pieces of fabric to begin with, but I did everything I could to STRETCH IT into something beautiful !!
Stay tuned for the finished table topper, hopefully by this time next week!

Gosh, I love when that happens! I am absolutely determined that 2015 is going to be our year to truly THINK before we act, and make sure we are continually working toward our future goals! As quickly as the past 30 years have gone, I am sure Dear Hubby's retirement is only a "blink" away! We are SO far behind in planning!
But, as least we are starting now and hopefully will get better each day at spending less, saving more and preparing ourselves and our home for the "golden" years.
For starters, I checked out my usual "haunts" on the internet. It is absolutely amazing how many freebies are available if you just know where to look!
This morning I downloaded a free eBook from FaveQuilts. I love free eBooks...such a GREAT way to acquire patterns without spending a ton of cash. I signed up on their site and am notified whenever there is another free eBook available.
Then I entered a whole bunch of contests at The Giveaway Roundup
Since my sewing machine is also an embroidery machine, I am constantly on the lookout for free designs I can add to my collection. I recently discovered Designs by Sick
This sight gives away a new design every hour on the :30, has a new "hunt" for a free design every hour, has a daily free design and a daily free design on facebook! Please note, you can get these freebies WITHOUT purchasing a membership!
I LOVE the blog "Little House Living". So many WONDERFUL frugal, "from scratch", handmade ideas are passed on by the fabulous Merissa! She is TRULY an inspiration! I signed up for the Little House newsletter here, Little House LIving
Quite frequently Merissa will include a list of free eBooks for the Kindle. I do not own a Kindle, however the Kindle reader is free and can be used on your computer or tablet. When you are purchasing the eBooks (for $0.00) be sure to pay close attention to the price as the "free deal" does not last forever! I downloaded quite a few books today and have had SUCH FUN reading them!
I have been a member of MyPoints for several years now. MyPoints is a site where you can earn points by making purchases, doing surveys and searches, playing games, etc. Today I completed two surveys and several searches to earn points toward a gift card reward. MyPoints also sends emails with links to their associated sites. You can earn points simply by clicking the link, even if you choose not to purchase anything! I earned 5 points by clicking today's link.
I also belong to a site called Recyclebank where I can read articles and complete quizzes to earn points that can be redeemed for eGift cards. Just a few days ago I cashed in my points for a Target eGift card. Tonight before I go to bed I will read a few more articles and take a few more quizzes to begin to rebuild my points.
Frugal Activities...
- I started my day today with a cup of free coffee. Coffee is my life's blood, and FREE coffee really makes my day!
- Last night I had another low sugar spell (yuck) and finished up a travel container of Glucose Tablets. I washed out the container last night and this morning it was dry enough to be added to my stash of crafty storage containers. I REFUSE to spend money on storage items unless I absolutely cannot meet my need with something free!
- I raised the shades in my sewing room and kept the lights off. I don't need to be giving the electric company any more money than is necessary.
- Since I wasn't planning on leaving the house at all today, I rewore my jeans from yesterday. I also slipped on the Crocs that I use as my slippers, saving wear and tear on my socks and shoes.
- I sorted through some junk mail and stashed any card stock postcards or magazine inserts in an old gift bag I keep in my sewing room closet. These free mailers make GREAT hexies for English Paper Piecing. I purchased a hexie die for my Sizzix, well worth the cost when I consider that most of my "hexie papers" will now come from "trash"!
- Yesterday I received a quilting catalog in the mail. I pulled the old catalog from my drawer, putting the newer one in its place. I then thumbed through the old catalog, scissors in hand, cutting out any color combinations or quilt ideas that I thought could inspire me in the future. I am using one of my son's old school notebooks to store these "ideas". I few small pieces of tape holds them neatly in place.
- While going through my emails I could feel the sun shining on my face and could hear the birds singing outside of my window. An idea for a quilt popped into my head and I took a minute or two to draw a rough sketch of the quilt in my "idea" book. I often joke to my family that I will have to live to be 125 to finish all of the quilts that are floating around in my head (and now making their way onto paper, lol).
- In the years since I purchased my first computer, I have printed out A LOT of non-critical information, designs, emails, etc. Only recently, however, have I begun to use the "draft" setting on my printer. Why oh why did I wait so long to adopt this practice?!? I can't imagine the amount of ink I have wasted over the years!!! Well, better late than never...I guess...
- As part of our "downsizing" goals, I need to begin purging the entire house, including my sewing room stash! I have decided that every day I will try to sort through one container, one pile, or one drawer of "stuff". This morning I opened up a shoe box filled with "food" themed fabric that I had been given for free. I tossed a few scraps that were too miniscule to be of much good and found a few pieces of fabric that I could easily envision in a cute table runner for my kitchen. I began cutting useable pieces for blocks and will search my stash for some coordinating solid fabric to pad out the size and pull it all together. One box down...a ton more to go through, lol. I also found the remainder of the fat quarter bundle I used to make my Travel EPP/Sewing Kit. The fabric pieces were all tied together with a pretty ribbon, keeping all of the perfectly coordinated pieces together. TODAY I know that the fat quarters have been cut up for a project, but a year or two from now I may not remember. So I used a scrap of card stock to make a label that said "Partially Used", punched a hole in it and threaded it onto the ribbon. I can now store it with all of my other "coordinated" bundles, but will know with a quick glance that my fabric amounts are less than they seem.

People out there are stressed to the max striving to make ends meet and pay the taxes and then some corps move in on something like this?
I did not have really a good day today and to see this and I am surprisingly stumped I do not have many words to describe this. lol
Even the pro-skills arguments are suspect? How are one of these persons ever going to pass a background check?
People seriously need to give their heads a shake.
Can we imagine what foreign markets are going to do to people to even further lower costs? Since these are quasi-government products being manufactured they should be labeled as such imo.

Arlen Specter's Sad, Bitter, Goodbye Speech, Reeks of Arrogance
Today Arlen Specter said goodbye to the Senate, and in doing so he showed himself to be a bitter, defeated old man. I suppose such is the fate of political opportunists. Ironically he devoted part of his speech to bashing the "right wing" voters who seek to back candidates whose Conservatism was pure. Specter's career was all about the exact opposite of ideological purity. Specter is the guy who changed political parties twice, in order to save his political career.
Its very interesting to watch the nine-year-old CSPAN Booknotes interview of Arlen Specter (see video above). The Pennsylvania Senator discusses his switch from Democrat to Republican in 1965. When Specter ran for Philadelphia district attorney in 1965, he proudly proclaimed himself a "Kennedy Democrat," and said he was running as a Republican to take on what he saw as the corruption of the machine. To be honest, it was his only chance to keep the job.
Last year Specter changed parties because of what he called a movement of his Republican party to the right.: In truth: he made the move to have a shot at keeping his job.: Very little has changed about Specter in the intervening 45 years. He makes no qualms about having an ideology. The guy just wants a job.
Today Specter railed against the Tea Party,"Eating or defeating your own is a form of sophisticated cannibalism," Specter said about the Tea Party movement's backing of conservative GOP candidates in this year's elections.
He made: comments about the election losses of what he called: GOP centrists and moderates, such: friend Sen. Robert Bennett of Utah and Rep. Mike Castle of Delaware. Both were denied the GOP nominations in their states this year by Tea Party candidates and pointed to GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski, who successfully mounted a write-in campaign as an example of how candidates can "counter right-wing extremists."
What Specter doesn't understand today and what he hadn't understood during the last few years of his Senate career, is that he didn't lose his support in the GOP because of "right-wing extremists" Neither did Robert Bennett, Mike Castle or Lisa Murkowski. They lost because more people wanted someone else.: You see that's the part of the equation arrogant politicians such as Specter and his friends named above keep forgetting. They don't work for a party, nor a political movement, they work for the people. And its those people who decide who wins and who loses.: Specter lost because he stopped listening to the people, and they threw him out on his arse.
A video of Specter's bitter speech is below:

Although Battlelion is a newly formed band, the group has been more than battle-tested. The band has traveled almost every weekend for the past eight months either to a performance within a six hour drive or a recording session with engineers from the likes of Ben Kasica of Skillet (Atlantic/INO/Ardent Records)and Josh Silverberg of Edison Glass (Credential Records). Their latest single "Tempter" has received a good deal of attention from fans which has led to streaming and radio airplay. The opportunity to minister has driven this band to succeed despite being faced with obstacles that would defeat many groups. Battlelion has traveled along side musical equipment to the majority of their performances in one vehicle to conserve on energy costs. This would be a normal task, except that the vehicle is a mid-sized sedan. :) The Lord recently blessed the group with a full size van. Still, like many bands before them, they've faced situations when the van broke down five times within a two week span. After 7 belts and 1 transmission later, the group has continued to take the opportunity to minister wherever they are called. And their humble Kentucky-upbringin' has helped them build friendships and fans all over the Southeast region.
Their willingness to serve has allowed them to perform in churches, coffee houses, living rooms, and festivals. The group has demostrated much versatility in that they are not limited to one style of music. There are not many groups that can play acoustic praise and worship at a church service on Wednesday and then a rock set at a metal concert on Friday. This exploration of musical styles can be heard in all of their songs as each one truly sounds different. To achieve that goal even more convincingly, they hired a different engineer to produce each one of their songs for their upcoming album. If Battlelion's music was summed up in one word it would have to be: Diversity. This offers an audience choice and hopefully exposes them to new forms of music all the while keeping things fresh in their ears.
Although much emphasis is placed on the music itself, the groups heart is focused on ministry. And that can be best understood from their own words.
"We are simply just four people that love Jesus! When we perform we just want to get that message across to people. We didn't form this band to place judgement on others. We didn't form this band to spread the message that people need to get themselves to church every Sunday within run-down schedules and routines. We didn't form this band so that we might sound like we are placed on a pedestal. We didn't form this band to get time on stage, have a certain look, or get famous. We formed this band to tell people about Christ. We are four sinners saved by the grace of God. We minister because we are instructed by God to do so. We're not perfect. So some may question, how can they minister to others? And we answer that with knowledge from the living word; the Bible. As God has instructed us, we will continue in our ministry; we will make a glorious noise; we will strive to be like him; we will spread his message; we will fellowship with others; we will seek the lost; and we will love our brothers. So with that said, anyone who takes the time to read this knows a little more now about where we're coming from. " -Battlelion
