Mrs. Marie Gether's House
700 E. Day Ave.
By Tom Fehring
Mrs. Marie Gether and her daughter Adolpha lived in this house. She was the mother of C. Robert Gether, who lived at 726 E Day. Home at 700 E Day was featured in 1892-93 Day Ave Sales Brochure; had a wrap-around porch.
The house was extensively remodeled after a November 1924 fire and converted from a Victorian styled residence to a Tudor Revival Style.
The small picture at the right is an early view of the residence showing its original architecture including a large wrap-around porch.
This section of East Day Avenue was the first residential area developed within Whitefish Bay.
Many of the homes located in this neighborhood were described in an advertising brochure, entitled, "A Home on the Bay" which was distributed in 1892 and 1893 to interested parties, including visitors to the Pabst Whitefish Bay Inn.
From the surviving photographs, most of the homes in this residential neighborhood do not appear to be designed in a 'pure' style. The builders appear to have combined elements of several styles in the various buildings. Queen Anne Style influences appear somewhat evident on these homes, but they may be designed closest to the Stick Style, which has been described as "one of the two most purely American styles of the nineteenth century." Stick Style homes are "expressive of the wooden framing system which underlies the wall, and were influenced by the residential designs published by Andrew Jackson Downing in the 1950s. Downing emphasized 'truthfulness' in wooden construction. Vertical or horizontal boarding on the outside walls were expressive of the underlying study wall underneath. Stick Style details such as paneling and simple gable end trusses are observable on several of these houses."
Although several of the homes in this neighborhood have been modified over the years, most of the homes continue to exhibit their distinctive architectural style. As such the neighborhood stands out as a unique historical area within the Village of Whitefish Bay.
The Milwaukee and Whitefish Bay Railroad line was developed in 1892, the same year the many of these residences were built and also the year the community of Whitefish Bay was incorporated. The line pushed to its northern limits at Day Avenue in 1897, and was electrified in 1898. The railroad allowed residents of the East Day Avenue neighborhood to commute to jobs in the City for the first time.
Note: Please respect the rights of private property owners when viewing this or any of properties listed in this column.
About "Preserving Our Past"
The Village of Whitefish Bay is a community of residential neighborhoods, punctuated with an attractive walking district of fine stores, excellent schools and vibrant houses of worship. It is filled with homes and other buildings that are architecturally rich, well-designed and maintained, and diverse in character.
Its residents have contributed much to the broad cultural, political, economic and social history of the area. And its residents are interested in maintaining their connections with an historic past.
To help maintain these connections, the Historic Preservation Commission is in the process of identifying buildings and historic sites that it believes may be architecturally significant or historic. On a weekly basis we will feature a building or site from our inventory.

Former USC quarterback Mitch Mustain was arrested Tuesday night on a charge of selling prescription narcotics, a Los Angeles Police Department spokesman confirmed.
Mustain was arrested a little after 8 p.m. in the West Valley area of L.A. The LAPD spokesman provided no additional details.
Mustain served as Matt Barkley's backup last season and made one start, against Notre Dame. Mustain had hoped to follow in the path of ex-USC QB Matt Cassel, who went from Trojans backup to NFL starter.

'The Voice' Recap: Jay Leno and Radio Are the Keys to a Burgeoning Musical Career
S2E10: So, Monday night on The Voice, a bunch of people sang, and most of them were merely okay. On Tuesday, Carsonbot informs us, six of those people will writhe in exquisite agony onstage for our viewing pleasure, and four will fall victim to the cruelty of the American populace and/or iTunes sales. "Fail!" the texts and Facebook votes will roar, and the performers will weep, weep to be so alone even amidst the massive crowds that, mere weeks ago, were crying their names in ecstasy.
Also, if the TV Gods are just, Purrfect will triumphantly return to our screens.
Onwards, onwards! Down into the bowels of the Hell that is Live Television!
First, in What Are the Coaches Wearing? News: Adam looks like he's late for Wimbledon. Cee Lo is no longer channeling the Ghost of James Brown. Blake is… Blake. And Christina is apparently out to punish all of us for our howls of "Oompa Loompa!" and "Blonde Snooki!" earlier this season by looking as good as possible.
Carsonbot asks Blake and Christina that vague question that no one really understands the point of, which is basically, "How do you feel about this tough situation?" Blake doesn't think any of his team should go home — "It's not tough, it's sucky" — and Christina thinks of her team as family.
Apropos of nothing, Gym Class Heroes and Neon Hitch perform "Ass Back Home" for us. Travie McCoy is wearing what looks like overly elaborate crown molding, and we barely even see Team Adam until the end. That's about the depth of my analysis on this one, sorry.
Carsonbot then shepherds us into the pre-taped segment on Team Blake. Blake took his team to a country radio station somewhere in the sprawl of LA, where he informs them that nothing can compare to the power of radio. Is that really still the case, or am I just out of the loop because I can't afford a car? He tells an endearing story from his first days as a Big Time Country Musician, craning his neck at the cars next to him at stoplights to see if they were listening to his music. And April 5 in LA, he's going to host an acoustic concert with his whole team, so if you're in LA, go check that out, I guess. It does seem like Blake is trying to teach them the value of good friends in business, and also that music is, you know, a business. That's nice.
Back in Liveland, Team Blake shivers and twitches and generally looks as though it wishes it were literally anywhere else right now. If I were an emotional succubus, I imagine I could feed off the recording of this show for a lifetime, the misery of everyone on the stage is so palpable.
After approximately one geologic age of tension, Carsonbot reveals America has given Erin Willett, Jermaine Paul, and RaeLynne a reprieve. The Victors are all teary and huggy; Jordis is like, "God, again?" Now she, Charlotte Sometimes, and Naia Kete will have to convince Blake to save one of them… with a song, you degenerates.
In another pre-recorded bit, we see Christina took her team to meet Jay Leno, and I laugh harder than I have laughed at anything Jay Leno has ever said. I understand synergy, and a trip to Fallon in New York would probably have been inconvenient, but talk about the wrong demographic for (relatively) young performers trying to make it big. Jay makes the usual car-collector jokes and everyone politely titters. Also: "You don't want to try too hard to be funny," Christina says, lobbing me a nice big softball that I'm going to ignore for your sakes.
Christina offers one last piece of advice to her team: Listen. To the howls of America, clamoring for blood and humiliation? Actually, these guys look a little less like they're going to vomit everywhere than Team Blake did, I'll give them that.
America chooses to spare Jesse Campbell, Lindsey Pavao, and Chris Mann, placing Ashley De La Rosa, Sera Hill, and Moses Stone on the altar, Abraham's scythe poised over their heads, where it'll stay for the next half hour or so, because we have to get through the Culling of Team Blake first.
Our Last Chance Performances from Team Blake:
Naia performs "If I Were a Boy," which caters a little more to her range and style than Adele. She does really well, though some of those tics are back. Blake is sad she didn't do reggae, but she bleats that that wasn't an option.
Charlotte does The Goo Goo Dolls' "Iris." I love this song unabashedly, so maybe that's the reason that I don't find her rendition particularly moving, and it starts a bit flat. Her emotion in the chorus serves her well, but it doesn't feel like quite enough to save her.
Especially because Jordis goes with "Wild Horses," and she sounds so much like The Sundays, and the ending of Buffy's "The Prom" episode pops into my mind, and my living room is all of a sudden just covered in dust and there's something in my eye. AHEM. She pretty much nails it.
Because these three haven't suffered enough, we have to ask the other three coaches whom they would save from the Wrath of the American Public. Christina was feeling so emotional, she can't choose! This does not compute with Carsonbot, who forces her to name someone: Jordis. Cee Lo and Adam are also Team Jordis, because, obviously. It's so obvious, in fact, that Blake mercifully keeps his hemming and hawing to a couple courtesies before rescuing Jordis from the jaws of a second defeat and feeding Charlotte and Naia to the lions of post-loss depression.
And for Team Christina's "Lose Yourself" moments:
Ashley rocks the hell out of "Paris (Ooh La La)." Man, I wish I had had that level of confidence at 17. Again, she genuinely looks like she's having a blast, and manages to walk the line between "cutely awesome" and "trying way too hard."
Sera performs "Vision of Love." It's not that she doesn't have stage presence, and it's not that she can't sing, because she certainly can, but if you're going to beat Ashley stomping around and kicking the stage's ass, you need to do something more than just sing well.
Moses goes with "Break Even/Falling to Pieces." Ah, there's that voice we keep hearing about. He's got the crowd worked up — Adam was right when he said the kid knows how to entertain, even if it's not quite as dynamic a performance as usual.
And now it's time to put these poor children out of their immediate misery, in one way or another, but not before milking the coaches' appearances for all they're worth: Cee Lo would save Sera. Adam babbles for a life-age of Middle Earth before picking Ashley. Blake is also on Ashley's side. And Christina Herself? Ashley!
While Carsonbot short-circuits on live TV, stumbling through nonsense like "Oh, Blake's getting onstage 001011101000010101" and exhorting us to stay tuned for Fashion Star, which is definitely a television show NBC wants you to acknowledge exists, I'll note that we'll be back next week, Same Bat Time, Same Bat Channel, but with Teams Adam and Cee Lo. Until then, continue to pray for the Return of the Prodigal Cat.

Canon Digital IXUS 55 introduction
Ilse Jurriën : August 22th 2005 - 12:20 CET
Canon Digital IXUS 55 digital camera introduction :
Canon, a leader in photographic and imaging technology, today announces a new addition to its Digital IXUS range - the Digital IXUS 55. Featuring a new interpretation of the iconic 'box and circle' design, the Digital IXUS 55 has a unique starburst design radiating from the lens ring, and is finished in silver-white palladium plating on stainless steel. As ever, the functionality behind the new Digital IXUS model is as stunning as the camera itselves. The Canon IXUS 55 camera boast DIGIC II processing, and a massive 2.5" LCD. The Digital IXUS 55 has 5.0 Megapixels and 3x optical zoom. Each Canon Digital IXUS is a statement in style, and the Digital IXUS 55 is no exception.
Large LCD with wide viewing angle
In a new twist on the 'box and circle' design, the designers of the Digital IXUS 55 have progressed the concept even further by adding a radiantly brilliant ring around the lens, producing a starburst effect. The Canon Digital 55 features an oversize 2.5" LCD display - while retaining all key controls and preserving sleek and slim body. The large LCD with wide viewing angle makes it easier to view and share images and movies during playback. The big LCD also makes it easier for the user to frame their shot and view menus, and is adjustable to 15 levels of brightness. New slide show functions allow review of images with stylish and contemporary transition effects applied in camera to create impressive slide shows with minimum user effort.
Canon IXUS 55 - High quality prints
The Digital IXUS 55 operates 5.0 Megapixels, and can produce quality photo prints to A3 size. The Canon IXUS 55 lens is constructed with 6 elements in 5 groups. The Canon camera lens includes two Ultra High Refractive Index Aspherical (UA) elements for true to life colours and crisp, high contrast images.
Canon Digital IXUS 55 - DIGIC II Processor
The new Digital IXUS model features DIGIC II - Canon's renowned processor ensures that the images recorded have superb resolution and colour quality, as well as giving improved camera performance overall. With 9-point AiAF, the camera automatically focus on the subject, even when it is off-centre. iSAPS intelligence ensures that the Digital 55 assess the scene and adjust the settings to achieve the optimum results. Three methods of exposure control can be selected; evaluative, centre-weighted, and spot; and ISO can be set to Auto, 50, 100, 200 or 400. For rapid downloading of images, the Canon IXUS 55 utilise a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed interface.
Canon Digital 55 - Shooting modes and special effects
The Digital IXUS 55 covers a wide range of photographic situations by providing users with 15 or 14 different shooting modes, respectively. A selection can be made from Auto, Manual, Portrait, Landscape and Night Snapshot modes, or from the scene modes that now include an underwater setting, allowing users to take full advantage of the optional All Weather Case (AW-DC50) for the Digital IXUS 55. Underwater mode adjusts the white balance specifically for underwater shots, allowing capture of the most authentic colours and minimising any blue cast. My Colors allows the expansion of creativity in digital photography. Special effects such as Color Swap or Custom Color, which allows users to select their preferred colour balance for any given shot, can be performed in-camera and viewed on the LCD while shooting stills and movies. These effects could previously only be achieved using PC software after shooting.
Canon IXUS 55 - Intelligent orientation sensor
The Digital IXUS 55 Intelligent Orientation Sensor recognises when the camera is rotated from horizontal to vertical, automatically rotating stored images for correct playback. To help keep the camera level with the horizon and to assist with image composition, users can also opt to display gridlines on their LCD. Other user interface options have been enhanced or added, including the new world time zone display. This allows the user to set home and destination country time zones, as well as animated displays and improved warnings for camera shake. The camera menu can also be displayed in 22 different languages.
Canon Digital IXUS 55 - More than just photos
The Digital IXUS 55 records high quality VGA movies - users can select between VGA and QVGA at 30 or 15 fps. Continuous filming is available until the file size has reached 1GB or 60 minutes - whichever is reached first. A fast frame rate of 60 fps is available, allowing for slow motion playback. Digital zoom can be employed whilst shooting, and for added effect, My Colors may also be used. Compact Movie mode, or QQVGA (160 x 120/15fps), is designed to make sharing movies via email as simple as possible.
Canon 55 digital camera - Printing images
When used in combination with Canon's new Compact Photo Printer SELPHY CP710 and Canon's Ink and Paper Set (KP-108IP), prints can be produced for just 30 euro cents each. Printing via a SELPHY CP Compact Photo Printer also allows the user to print handy ID prints and movie prints. When connected to the latest range of PictBridge compatible PIXMA printers (also released today) image enhancement is possible with functions including Noise Reduction and Vivid Photo as well as the new Face Brightener feature. Printing of images without having to connect to a PC is made simpler via the Print/Share button, which also acts as an easy upload button for Windows XP and Mac OS X.

We use our sketchbooks A LOT -- warm up drawings, idea generating, thumbnail sketches, media practice and techniques, skill building exercises, weekly homework drawings, etc. My 8th graders will be doing more of a visual journal.
I try to help them see the connection to how and why other artists use their sketchbooks. One resource: Artists' Sketchbooks Online http://www.gis.net/~scatt/sketchbook/links2.html

We get pretty excited for springtime at Great Lakes Brewing Company. After all, with springtime comes the holiest of community gatherings: the barbecue.
Whether it's a small front porch gathering or a total backyard blowout, you can usually expect two things at any self respecting cookout: food and beer. If you're lucky, someone comes through with a few communal bottles or kegs of GLBC beer. And if you're really lucky, they bring along a perfectly paired appetizer to graze as you sip your way through a chilled GLBC bottle.
If you're thinking to yourself, "I want to be the hero of my spring party. I want to be the bearer of good brews and tasty snacks", you're in the right place. We have the solution for your springtime potluck needs.
Our Recipe Spotlight this month features our classic spring seasonal, Holy Moses White Ale, our handcrafted white ale with spices and chammomile. The tangy, fruity notes of this hazy wheat beer make it a perfect warm-weather session beer. It's refreshing, clean, and aromatic. A definite lawn chair-sipper. And what goes better with a sunny seated respite than a Holy Moses White Ale and a bowl of colorful, freshly made salsa? That's right--nothing.
Holy Moses Cucumber Lime Salsa
Dice vegetables and drain of any excess liquids. Combine all ingredients, excluding olive oil. Refrigerate for 2 hours. Add olive oil before serving. Great for a piece of fresh grilled fish, or simply served with tortilla chips.
Holy Moses White Ale is coming soon in 6-packs, 12-packs, and on draft at bars and retailers located in our distribution markets. Visit our onsite or online gift shops for Holy Moses White Ale merchandise including posters, glassware, and magnets. And don't forget to pick up a GLBC apron for your next barbecue. Cheers!

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM and TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 11/21/12 -- Minera IRL Limited (Minera IRL or the "Company") (TSX:IRL) (AIM:MIRL) (BVL:MIRL), the Latin American gold mining company, is pleased to announce an upgraded resource estimate following step-out, extension and infill drilling at the Martinetas Vein Field, Don Nicolas Project, Santa Cruz Province, Argentina. The Don Nicolas Project has been permitted and is advancing toward development.
-- Highly successful resource upgrade at Martinetas in which gold-silver quartz vein envelopes surrounding the three main sub-parallel vein zones, Cerro Oro, Coyote and Lucia have now merged into one mineralized domain. -- Measured and Indicated Resources have increased by 23% to 468,000 ounces of gold, an increase of 87,000 ounces compared to the resource published in 2011. -- Inferred Resource has increased 14% to 165,000 ounces of gold, an increase of 20,000 ounces. -- The increase in Measured and Indicated Resource is expected to extend the mine life of the Don Nicolas Project, which continues to move toward development. In addition, a substantial increase in the low grade category provides the catalyst for completing a heap leach feasibility study in 2013. -- High potential for further resource additions.
"We are delighted with the results of our 2012 resource drilling programme which not only extended the Martinetas vein field but has demonstrated significant potential for future growth." said Courtney Chamberlain, Executive Chairman of Minera IRL. "The increased resource and merging of the three principal vein zones has important economic implications. These include extending the mine life of Don Nicolas and providing a strong incentive to complete a heap leach feasibility study in 2013 aimed at treating the lower grade material. This lower grade will be mined in conjunction with the high grade mill feed and a successful parallel heap leach circuit has the potential to significantly increase low cost gold and silver production with modest additional capital requirement."
The latest resource estimate supersedes the previous announcement in 2011. The 2012 resource drilling has added to the database 173 new drill holes and 16 extension drill holes with a combined total of 18,640 meters. Estimation techniques and parameters have not altered and the same 0.3g/t lower gold cut-off grade has been applied.
Two large epithermal vein field districts, La Paloma and Martinetas located approximately 40km apart, make up the Don Nicolas Project. The 2012 Martinetas drill programme expanded the gold-silver quartz vein envelopes surrounding the three main sub-parallel vein zones, Cerro Oro, Coyote and Lucia demonstrating high potential for mining these zones from one large open pit. These vein systems are open-ended to the south-west and at depth. Also at Martinetas, in September 2012 a new discovery was announced at Choique located only 1.6km from the proposed Don Nicolas plant site. Whilst the resource, at this stage, is modest the setting along the flanks of a rhyolite dome indicates excellent potential to expand this resource with further drilling.
Although no drilling was conducted at La Paloma in 2012, recent target generation studies have identified several highly prospective areas where brownfields drilling is now planned for 2013.
The following table summarizes the 2012 Don Nicolas resource estimate.

This Inferred Resource (gold only) is as previously reported by Hidefield in 2009 as estimated by Runge. Ramal was estimated by Runge but not included in the Hidefield estimate.
The resource estimation methodology applied to each vein system was appropriate for the particular mineralized deposit. Ordinary Kriging (OK) was used for the La Paloma deposits, as well as Armadillo, Choique and Calafate at Martinetas. No mine dilution was included in the resource estimate for these deposits. For Coyote, Cerro Oro and Lucia, the Multiple Indicator Kriging (MIK) method was considered more appropriate. This method includes dilution for an assumed mining scenario and Selective Mining Unit (SMU).
The new resource estimate at Martinetas is compared with the 2011 estimate in the following table. Of particular note is the increase in the potentially heap leachable resource to over 6 million tonnes at a grade of 0.7g/t Au.

Preliminary metallurgical testing at the Ammtec Metallurgical Laboratory in Perth, Western Australia on low grade trench composites from Martinetas is encouraging and confirms that the ores are amenable to heap leaching techniques. Column leach tests have yielded gold extractions up to 73%. Whereas fairly fine crushing appears to be required, agglomeration has not been needed and reagent consumption is modest. Planning is progressing for an expanded test programme during early 2013 with the objective of completing a feasibility study on heap leaching during the second half of 2013.
The Martinetas and La Paloma districts are contained within a very large tenement holding of approximately 260,000 ha which host numerous precious metal occurrences, such as Microondas and Escondido, which provide further targets. For example, Escondido, discovered in 2010 by Minera IRL Patagonia approximately 35km to the north - west of Martinetas, hosts both high grade veins and bulk tonnage mineralization. Microondas, only 10km west of Martinetas, is hosted in a rhyolite dome and has historical good grade gold drill intersections. These and other deposits will be assessed for future feed to the Don Nicolas processing facilities.
With the recent approval of the Don Nicolas Environmental Impact Assessment and the granting of the Development Permit, the Company is investigating financing options and also completing plans to commence detailed engineering early in 2013. The objective is to commence production by early 2014 at Don Nicolas to produce an average of 52,000 ounces of gold and 56,000 ounces of silver per year from open pit mining and treatment by conventional processing techniques.
Resource Estimate Authorship and Methodology
The resource estimate was prepared by Mr Doug Corley, Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists, Associate Resource Geologist in Resource Modelling with Coffey Mining Pty Ltd. Doug Corley is recognized as a Qualified Person for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101.
On the basis of the confidence levels of the key criteria that were considered during the resource estimation, the mineral resource estimates provided in this press release have been classified and reported in accordance with CIM guidelines and National Instrument NI.43-101.
Including the 2012 drilling, the database used in this re-estimate now totals 545 drill holes for 44,620 meters plus 104 trenches for 7,807 meters. The resource estimates apply a 0.3g/t gold bottom cut for the global resource and a 1.6g/t bottom cut to provide the high grade component. Top cutting was applied as appropriate for each of the vein systems.
Mr Doug Corley conducted two field visits to the project site where he had the opportunity to interact with project geologists and related staff and to study the geology and associated mineralization in order to become familiar with the geological demeanour as well as continuity of grade distribution inherent to the Don Nicolas deposits.
Resource estimation methodology included completion using Ordinary Kriging or the Multiple Indicator Kriging method, whichever was the most appropriate.

Freight transport demand (CSI 036/TERM 013) - Assessment published Apr 2009
Generic metadata
Transport (Primary topic)
Typology: Descriptive indicator (Type A - What is happening to the environment and to humans?)
Key policy question: Is freight transport demand being decoupled from economic growth?
Key messages
Freight transport volume has grown rapidly, and has generally been coupled with growth in GDP. Consequently the objective of decoupling GDP and transport growth has not been achieved. Closer inspection reveals great regional differences, with growth faster than GDP in the EU-15 Member States and slower than GDP in the EU-12 Member States. This is mainly a result of the economic restructuring in the new Member States over the past decade.
Trend in freight transport demand and GDP
Note: The two curves show the development in GDP and freight transport volumes, while the columns show the level of annual decoupling
Key assessment
Freight transport demand has grown significantly since the early 1990s, thereby making it increasingly difficult to limit transport's impacts on the environment. Ireland and the Netherlands have seen the highest growth in freight between 1996 and 2006. However, the almost parallel growth with GDP is a more complex issue. Freight transport demand has grown significantly faster than GDP in the EU-15 Member States, yet trends tend to be opposite in the EU-10 Member States.
For the EU-15 Member States, the main explanation for demand overtaking GDP is that the internal market is leading to some relocation of production processes, causing additional growth in transport demand over and above the steady growth in GDP. For the EU-12 Member States, there has been a large shift in production away from traditional relatively heavy low-value industry towards higher-value production and services. This coupled with strong economic growth means that freight transport growth is not keeping up with GDP growth. Both effects are temporary, but the data do not contain any indication that real decoupling (difference between GDP and transport volume growth) is taking place.
Development of the Trans-European Networks under the TEN-T programme may facilitate further growth in freight volume due to the focus on relieving bottlenecks and expanding infrastructure capacity. The revised guidelines have some provisions for environmental issues, namely a call on Member States to perform Strategic Environmental Assessment of national transport programmes and a requirement that funding for TEN-T projects be conditional on compliance with EU environmental legislation. However, environmental concerns are secondary for the selection of projects and the overall environmental impacts have not been assessed.
Freight volumes have increased in the EEA member countries (data for Bulgaria, Cyprus, Liechtenstein, Malta and Romania is missing) over the past couple of decades. The most extensive growth was in road transport with an average annual growth rate of 3.5 % in the EEA member countries. Between 1996 and 2006 road, rail and inland waterways freight (tkm) increased by 43 %, 15 % and 11 %, respectively.
Specific policy question: Is the share of goods transported by road being reduced relative to other transport modes?
Trends in the annual intensity of freight transport demand
Note: Road freight transport is assigned to the country of origin of the transport vehicle in EU statistics rather than to where the vehicles drive
Specific assessment
In terms of modal share, road freight has the largest share constituting 78 % of the market in 2006. The modal share of rail and inland waterways is 17 % and 5 % respectively. Since 1996, the share of both rail and inland waterways freight has declined gradually. As a result, the objective outlined in the Common Transport Policy (CTP) of stabilising the modal shares of rail, inland waterways, short-sea shipping and oil pipelines, and shifting the balance from 2010 onwards, will not be achieved unless there is a strong reversal of the current trend.
This development can be explained by looking at the type of goods transported. This plays an important role in choice of mode. Perishable and high-value goods require fast and reliable transportation - road transport is often the fastest and most reliable form available, providing much flexibility with pickup and delivery points. Agricultural products and manufactured goods are some of the most important goods transported throughout Europe. Their shares in tonne-km are also rising.
Because the transport system allows it, modern production prefers 'just-in-time' delivery of goods. Transport speed and flexibility are therefore of great importance. Despite congestion, road transport is often faster and more flexible than rail or water transport. In addition, as a result of spatial planning and infrastructure development, many destinations can only be reached by road, and combined transport is only undertaken to a limited extent. Furthermore, the road sector is liberalised to a great extent, while the inland waterway and rail sectors have only relatively recently been opened up to broad competition. Finally, the average tonne of goods carried by road travels about 110 km, a distance over which rail or inland waterways are less efficient because road transport is needed to and from the points of loading. Moreover, in using multi-modal transport for such short distances, valuable time is lost due to the lack of standardisation of loading units and convenient and fast connections between inland waterways and rail. For short-sea shipping, the average tonne of goods is carried more than 1,430 km. Here, time is less of an issue. The low price of shipping is probably of overriding importance.
In terms of total international freight transport volumes, sea shipping dominates. The lack of information about sea transport is due to methodological and data reliability problems, which frequently results in the mode being omitted from transport statistics. The volumes of freight transported by sea should not, however, be underestimated. The demand for intra-European short-sea transport is roughly equivalent to that of road transport in the EU-15, for which data is available.
Total freight volume has increased for all current member states. Estonia (162 % growth), Ireland (156 %) and Lithuania (152 %) have seen the biggest increase during the period of 1996 to 2006.
Road freight has seen the highest increases with Lithuania and Latvia experiencing the biggest increase of more than 350 % from 1996-2006.
Rail freight has seen a much smaller increase and for many countries a decline has been measured among EU-15. Countries such as France, Ireland and Luxemburg have all seen a drop in rail freight whereas Austria, Germany and Greece saw a fairly high increase in the period from 1996 to 2006.
Inland waterways (IWW) makes up a much smaller proportion of the overall freight movement with many countries experiencing declines or very small increases. Belgium saw the greatest increase with growth of 56 % between 1996 and 2006. New member states saw much lower increases with Romania and Bulgaria experiencing the largest growth of 117 % and 55 % respectively.

The Risk of Renting are No Longer Just Financial (Will they pay or not?)You may not be able to rule out all potentially problematic tenants, but a simple background check can give you a lot of information about any criminal activity or other skeletons an applicant might have in his/her closet.
5 Common Tenant Screening MistakesAvoid the following mistakes and you won't have to worry about problem tenants:
You may be thinking that your building or complex is too nice of a place for a criminal to move into. The truth is problem tenants often rent in places you wouldn't suspect. Not convinced?
{see} Magazine has developed a card identification game in which two of six apartments were rented by people who wouldn't want to be background screened. One of the apartments was rented by a terrorist cell who would show up on a watch list. Another was rented by four people who turned the apartment into a crystal-meth lab. See if you can pick which apartments they rented.

This week's pet is Mint Julep, a 4-year-old, full-figured, golden tabby. Mint Julep is front declawed.
"Mint Julep is absolutely hilarious," said Lisa Hill of New Beginnings Animal Rescue. "We love her here at New Beginnings. She makes about 8-10 different sounds: purrs, chirps, squeaks, and one that actually sounds a little bit like a Wookie from 'Star Wars.'
"She is very affectionate, gets along great with other cats and dogs don't seem to bother her."
Mint Julep is very playful. She also enjoys following you around and sitting with you on the couch.
"Her main goal is just to be with you," Hill said. "She just wants to be part of the family."
All animals available for adoption through New Beginnings have been spayed or neutered and have all their shots. To adopt Mint Julep, fill out an application at Bingo, or online at

The entrance of large financial agents into the RPS market; the consolidation of the market as large companies buy smaller, well-performing developers; and the record response to the 2007 RPS solicitation all indicate that the RPS procurement environment is maturing.

They're only really mentioning Dean, Gene (who will sing the National Anthem), Glenn McClelland (who will play organ) & Josh (who is not part of the reunited Kyuss), but I think that's enough reason to go to this Ween hometown charity event on Sunday (10/2).
