November 30, 2015
NORFOLK, Va. (AP) -- In addition to today's 30-minute infomercial, Barack Obama will be airing a new 30-second TV ad that gets in a few shots at John McCain.
The spot uses McCain's own words against him and also mocks running mate Sarah Palin.
The McCain quotes, one from 2005 and two from 2007, play off McCain's admission that he knows less about economic matters than other issues. In the last quote, McCain says he might have to rely on his vice president for expertise. Then the spot cuts to a winking Palin.
The longer, 30-minute show airs on several networks at 8 p.m. EDT. That ad is expected to feature a video montage of typical people talking about the challenges they face, with Obama explaining how he can help.

Fans flock to Scranton for 'The Office' fete

SCRANTON, Pa. (AP) — The actors who play Pam, Jim, Dwight and other beloved characters from the popular NBC show "The Office" bade farewell on Saturday to the northeastern Pennsylvania city of Scranton that served as the TV setting for their fictional paper company.
The NBC mockumentary about a clan of quirky cubicle-dwellers at the fictional Dunder Mifflin Paper Co. wraps up May 16 after nine seasons, and a crowd estimated at 10,000 attended a "Wrap Party" in Scranton to show their appreciation.
Jenna Fischer, John Krasinski, Rainn Wilson and other stars rode in classic convertibles and posed for hundreds of photos as fans thronged around them. The stars later took the stage in front of the Lackawanna County Courthouse and played a concert with The Scrantones, the band that performed the show's theme song.
Fischer teared up as she rode down Linden Street, overwhelmed by the adoring crowds. Krasinski said afterward that he couldn't process it.
"To have this many people coming out of their way, driving from different places, to just see us and just say thank you is totally bizarre. You have a lot of amazing experiences when you have this gig, but there's nothing like people genuinely saying thank you," he said." I don't think we ever realized how many people we had touched."

Briquelle Hoppes, 22, of Louisville, Ky., drove 11 hours with her fiancé and two friends — skipping town on Kentucky Derby day — to attend the Wrap Party, keeping themselves awake overnight by playing old "Office" episodes through the car speakers and shouting "Ain't no party like a Scranton party 'cause a Scranton party don't stop," a classic line from the show.
She said she never misses an episode and frequently laughs so hard she cries.
"It appeals to a particular sense of humor and that's us 100 percent," she said. "It's very awkward, and I find awkward situations hilarious."
While the comedy was shot in California, it made liberal use of props from Scranton and referenced plenty of real-life landmarks, from Cooper's Seafood House and Poor Richard's pub to Lake Wallenpaupack and the Lackawanna County Coal Mine Tour.
Scranton hosted a similar blowout, the "Office Convention," in 2007.
On stage Saturday, Wilson paid fans the ultimate backhanded compliment — befitting his character, Dwight Schrute, a paper salesman utterly lacking in social graces.

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – The FBI is asking the public's help in finding a small unmanned aircraft and its operator that was reportedly spotted by a commercial airline pilot near John F. Kennedy International Airport.
The pilot of an Alitalia flight said he saw something that he described as "a drone" about four to five miles southeast of the airport Monday afternoon. He said the aircraft was flying at an altitude of about 1,500 feet.
The pilot was heard telling air traffic controllers exactly what he saw on radio calls recorded by the website LiveATC.net. Continue reading via CBS News New York...

Protein-rich soya granules make a very versatile ingredient, which is liked by young and old alike. It fits well into a lot of dishes, from upmas to subzis. Here is a strikingly flavourful preparation of soya granules and mashed potatoes made into mint-flavoured koftas, which are dunked in a tomato-based gravy that is uniquely flavoured with fennel seeds powder, made creamier by adding milk, and enhanced with mint leaves.

Soya granules have a distinct taste that i generally don't like but in these koftas that taste has magically vanished. The gravy is delicious and the taste of mint adds a unique freshness to the otherwise traditional punjabi gravy. Since there is soya in the koftas it also up's the protein quotient of the dish.

Aikumush's Group
Aikumush B., leader of this group, is one of those people. She is 53 and married. She has a son of 12 years old and he goes to school. Earlier, her husband was working and providing for the family, but then he retired. The amount of retirement allowance received from the government was 1875 soms, which is not enough to cover living expenses.
Aikumush tried to find a job but she is 53 and it is well-known that as you get older, your employment chances decrease. One year ago, being tired out from searching for a job, she decided to start her own business – livestock breeding. She started with an initial investment of 2000 soms and now the business brings in 7500 soms monthly. 7500 soms are quite enough to provide for herself and members of her family. Still, she believes that she could increase profits from her business if she had more livestock. Thus, she is applying for a loan in order to buy at least one more sheep. Increased profits will give her an opportunity to realize her wish to make capital repairs on her home and pay for better education for her son.
Group members:
Dzhyldyzgul E. is the group treasurer. She is 48 and married. She has a daughter of 5 years old. Her husband is pensioner and his retirement allowance is 1924 soms per month. Like Aikumush, the leader of the group, she was in search of a job during a certain period, but couldn't find a job. Following the suggestion of her neighbors, 4 years ago, she decided to start up her business – cattle breeding. She started her business from 10,000 soms. For now, she has significantly increased the number of heads of cattle, and cattle breeding gives her 3000 soms monthly. She is applying for a loan in order to buy 8 sheep to fatten and sell. With the profits received, she is planning to build a new house.
Kunduz A. is 37 and married. She has 3 children. Her daughter is 7 and her sons are 4 and 1 and a half years old. Her daughter goes to school. Her husband is a guard of an area with crops and he receives 2500 soms. In order to help her husband, 2 years ago, Kunduz decided to start breeding cattle. She took 15,000 soms from the family budget and bought cattle. She buys cattle, fattens and then sells them at a higher price and it brings her 3500 soms monthly. She has increased the number of heads of cattle and she is planning to increase that number again. With the help of a loan, she will be able to buy 2 more head of cattle in order to continue the functioning of her business and make repairs to her house for the winter period.
Dzhambulat B. is 49 and married. He has two sons, 21 and 13 years old. The younger son goes to school. His wife is a housewife and assists her husband in taking care of their household. He is a taxi driver and his income is 6000 soms monthly. However, 15 years ago, before becoming a taxi driver, he started breeding cattle with an initial investment of 5000 soms. During the last 15 years, it was income from cattle breeding (6000 soms monthly) that helped him to provide for members of his family. Since he is also employed as a taxi driver now, his elder son helps him in breeding cattle. Now, his elder son is planning to get married and thus, they need money in order to put on a small traditional wedding. Thus, they are applying for loan which will give them an opportunity to increase the number of head of cattle, fatten and sell them at a higher price, and increase their profits.

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Rangers Photos
With the Rangers' season lost, a look at who from the best club in franchise history is primed for a playoff run
Photo: Vernon Bryant/Staff Photographer
Josh Hamilton, OF, Angels: Hamilton's home run in the 10th inning of Game 6 had the Rangers on the precipice of winning the World Series before it all fell apart. Since then it's been all downhill for him in the eyes of Rangers fans, from poor play down the stretch in 2012 to leaving for the Angels in free agency to calling Dallas "not a baseball town." This year, though, Hamilton will get the last laugh. He's hitting .295 and the Angels have a stranglehold on the first AL wildcard spot.

No surprise, innovation fascinates me, for a broad range of reasons. Mainly because I've always enjoyed sharing these little bits of ideas which take us further. I think innovation is proximate and universal, common and specific at the same time. Moving forward, it looks like innovation might turn out to be critical and necessary (a gut feeling I have, or a dream, you tell me).
I have worked in small, medium, large, XXL size businesses, and driven a wide variety of innovation related projects. As a marketing and strategy professional, I've had to define innovation stories, help picture the future, size the gap, build the bridge. As a great story-teller, I thought I'd write a blog about these bridges and other wonderful structures that take us from today to tomorrow. And see where they take me.
I live in France with my family, enjoy writing, playing music, learning all sort of things. And sharing a cup of tea with smiling and loved faces.
If you want to hear a little bit of what I sing, then you can play below songs, and check-out our video "Money". Don't hesitate to share if you like it. Creativity on that side helps me trigger innovation as well.

Seville Square
|This article does not cite any references (sources). (June 2007)
|It has been suggested that this article be merged into Pensacola Historic District. (Discuss) Proposed since March 2012.
Seville Square in Pensacola, Florida is the center of the old settlement of Pensacola by the Spanish after several unsuccessful attempts beginning in 1559. This was the earliest known attempt at European settlement on the North American continent. Seville Square and its twin, Plaza Ferdinand VII, were the parade grounds for the Fort of Pensacola established during British rule.
In the 1960s a young group of local preservationists decided to work to restore the older parts of Pensacola. They formed the Pensacola Heritage Foundation, joined the National Trust, created the Seville Square Historic District, registered the district on the National Register of Historic Places, bought and restored with their own labor the historic Clara Barkley Dorr House on the square and convinced the city to restore Seville Square.

Pat Summitt's words fuel fire
Tennessee coach's "off the cuff" remark implies Auriemma broke recruiting rules
Originally Published: October 27, 2010By Mechelle Voepel | ESPN.com
Tennessee coach Pat Summitt got caught up in some rhetoric last week, which is bound to happen at least once in awhile when you speak as much to the media as Summitt does. But then she compounded the situation by taking a shot at Connecticut and coach Geno Auriemma.
Now she doesn't want to talk about any of it. Neither does Auriemma, nor the Connecticut athletic department. And the Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) is in a bit of a pickle.
The WBCA ...

DAISY Award
What is The DAISY Award?
As Patrick's family, we brainstormed what to do in his memory. We vividly recalled the skillful and compassionate care Patrick received from his nurses during his eight-week hospitalization. We wanted to say "thank you" to nurses everywhere by establishing a recognition program - The DAISY Award For Extraordinary Nurses (The DAISY Award) - to honor the super-human work nurses do for patients and families every day. In creating The DAISY Award, there were three elements we wanted to ensure our recognition program included:
- A partnership with healthcare organizations to provide on-going recognition of the clinical skill and especially the compassion nurses provide to patients and families all year long
- Flexibility so that The DAISY Award may be tailored to each hospital's unique culture and values.
- A turn-key program with The DAISY Foundation providing most everything you need to implement The DAISY Award.
DAISY Award Pin
The DAISY Award Today
We never imagined when we created this program in 1999 that today, there would be over 1,900 healthcare facilities in all 50 states and 14 other countries, committed to honoring nurses with The DAISY Award. The strategic impact of the program on nurses and their organizations is deep, affecting nurses' job satisfaction, retention, teamwork, pride, organizational culture, healthy work environment, and more.
Please read the testimonials of DAISY Coordinators who run the program and nurses who have been honored with The DAISY Award by going to our Testimonials page and to Meet Our Ambassadors and selecting a region.
For details about how the program works and the gifts each Honoree receives, read our Frequently Asked Questions.
We are always taken aback by the humility of nurses who receive The DAISY Award because of an extraordinary act of compassion or a relationship they have created with a patient that truly made a difference. So often, these DAISY Honorees respond to their recognition with, "But I didn't do anything special. I was just doing my job." We want to help nurses see in themselves what their patients, families, and colleagues see in them and to help them learn the behaviors that make such a powerful difference. So we co-authored with Mary Koloroutis, MSN, RN, President of Creative Health Care Management, an article entitled, Inspiring Nurses to See the Extraordinary in Their Ordinary. We hope you will enjoy reading it!
Ask for more information about The DAISY Award for your organization.
Do You Want to Nominate a Nurse for The DAISY Award?
If you have been the recipient of extraordinary care by a nurse and would like to nominate her or him, please contact us. We will send you the name of the DAISY Coordinator at the facility where you had your great experience who can tell you how to submit your nomination.

Roller Chain
Roller chain transmits mechanical power through linked rollers and a rotating sprocket that drives the chain. Roller chain's simple design accommodates many link and roller variations and makes it integral to conveyor systems. Small rollers are used in lightweight chains for light-load, high-speed applications. Large rollers with greater pitch values give roller chain higher tensile strength to handle heavier loads. While cotter pins and rivets allow multi-strand roller chain configurations, attachment chain links fasten to the chain or replace existing links for lengthening or adapting an attachment.

Five Essential Habits of Curators That Will Make You a Smarter Marketer
Rohit Bhargava / Marketing Profs / February 11, 2015
The goal of curation is taking individual items and examples and weaving them together into a narrative.
In other words, curation adds meaning to isolated beautiful things.
I am inspired by curators—and it is a relevant idea for marketing. The business world has been increasingly turning toward curation as a way to add meaning to marketing. I often describe it as the forgotten side of content marketing.
Amid all the discussion about creating great content, who will take on the valuable role of just helping us to find the great content that already exists on the Web or otherwise?
Curators canRead More
Five Actions Marketers Can Take to Deliver Real Engagement in 2015
Reggie Wideman / MarketingProfs / February 5, 2015
When we really sit down and start to think about digital engagement, it probably feels like a complex and daunting exercise.
But when consumers are using more devices than ever before, across more channels than we could even fathom just a short 10 years ago, it's critical that marketers pause and ask themselves and their teams one simple question: How can we better engage our customers?
There's no magical solution to engagement, but you can take concrete steps to crafting a strategy that works.
Here are five actions that brands and companies can take to create an engagement strategyRead More
Seven Skills Marketers Need to Succeed
Verónica Maria Jarski / MarketingProfs / Oct 21, 2014
What are the most important skills that a marketer needs?
The following infographic by Formstack highlights seven skills that companies expect from their marketers.
The ability to understand data ranks high on the list. "Research predicts a shortfall of up to 1.5 million data-savvy managers by 2018," Formstack states.
Technical skills, such as basic coding or video production, also make a job applicant more desirable. "Two of four new marketing hires will require technical skills," according to Formstack.

Marketers Focusing On Data And Engagement Opportunities Of Content
Brian Anderson / Demand Gen Report / September 17, 2014
While the role of content continues to mature, many marketers are just beginning to discover its true value — primarily in the data they can obtain through prospects' interactions with content and its ability to enhance engagement through multiple channels.
At Marketo's Marketers First virtual event, roughly 20,000 marketing professionals attended sessions throughout the day, highlighting best practices for content marketing, data analytics and social media. A recurring theme was that content needs to build trust and should not be used primarily as a sales tool.

Marketers Have Gained Their "Seat at the Table," Now it's Time to Prove Why They Deserve it
Kevin Akeroyd / Eloqua / July 16, 2014
The onus is on us. Piecing back together the now fragmented customer experience requires marketing leaders to ramp up their activities far beyond basic brand awareness and meaningfully engage with customers across all marketing channels.
The C-Suite expects marketers to be able to measurably contribute to the bottom line and deliver loyal customers who return time and time again. In order to meet the boss' demands, CMOs must take ownership of the overall customer experience and create individual, meaningful digital dialogs with their customers.And while technology is supporting theRead More

Hey, I'm Josh!
Hello, world! I'm Josh — pleased to connect with you. I'm a designer and entrepreneur, originally from NYC and living in beautiful San Francisco (home of Airbnb!). As a Sagittarius, I am very compelled by travel and enjoy walking around streets and "getting lost" (more a state of mind). I've been to Spain 6x, Croatia 3x, France, Morocco, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, Israel, Hungary, The Netherlands, and Canada; I've traveled extensively over the US as well.
In Dec 2011 – Jan 2012 I took a 40-day mini-sabbatical in honor of turning 40. I booked nearly all of my lodging for that trip through Airbnb, and met some amazing and insightful hosts!
As a guest I am extremely low-impact, respectful and quiet, and enjoy nothing more than a great bottle of wine and collaborating on a meal if you're up for that!

I have been looking for a club team to join on my free time since I have moved out here but haven't had much luck in my age group. (21)
I have heard about a box lacrosse league in Torrey Pines, but haven't been able to find anything about it.
I have been working a lot lately (60hr work weeks) so it has been hard for me to get around and find these types of things. If there is one going on that you can help me find that would be awesome!

Use the link below to access the full report.
The Citywide Statement of Needs for Fiscal Years 2016 and 2017 is the latest in the series of annual reports required under Section 204 of the City Charter. This document is an important tool for aligning some of the Administration's priorities – reducing inequalities, providing affordable housing, leveraging investments in neighborhood infrastructure and services – with agency capital projects and siting decisions that address community needs. Along with the Criteria for the Location of City Facilities (the Fair Share Criteria), available on the Department's website the Citywide Statement of Needs is part of a planning process in which communities are informed at the earliest possible stage of the City's needs for facilities and the specific criteria for selecting the locations of those facilities.
In conjunction with the Citywide Statement of Needs, an updated listing of City Owned and Leased Properties—formerly published as the Gazetteer and Atlas of City Property—is prepared biennially, providing geographic information about the use and location of existing and city-owned and leased properties. Beginning with the 2014 release, this information and additional documentation describing these resources is now available exclusively online in two user-friendly formats:
Read more information about the City Owned and Leased Properties spreadsheet.
As part of a continuing program to provide the necessary tools for informed public participation in the process for the siting of city facilities, DCP also issues the Selected Facilities and Program Sites Database which contains over 20,000 datasets describing city, state, federal and non-profit health and mental health, social service, public safety, educational, recreational, transportation and waste management facilities. This information is also available on the Department's BYTES of the BIG APPLE webpage.
Contents of the
Statement of Needs
The Citywide Statement of Needs contains proposals to establish, replace, consolidate, expand or reduce or close City facilities in all five boroughs during the next two fiscal years. Significant expansions and reductions are defined as the addition or discontinuance of the use of real property which would expand or reduce the size or capacity of a facility by 25 percent or more.
To help elected officials and community boards identify the proposals likely to affect their communities, the proposals are summarized, by borough and community district, in Part One of this report.
Part Two provides the following information, categorized by agency, for each proposal.
The needs identified in this Statement are constrained by realistic expectations of funding availability and implementation timetables. Nevertheless, some of the proposals included in the Statement may be eliminated or deferred beyond fiscal year 2017 because of funding limitations.
The actions proposed include anticipated property acquisitions or site selections funded in the city's capital budget, as well as leases or contracts that would newly establish or significantly expand a facility. The Statement contains proposals for which ULURP or Section 195 applications or contract approvals are anticipated during fiscal years 2016 and 2017, including proposals that appeared in last year's document but have since been modified. Proposals in last year's Statement which have not been modified are not repeated this year. Appendix A provides a summary of the status of those proposals.
Appendix B provides a list of new schools, both new construction and leased space, included in the Department of Education's proposed Five-Year Capital Plan for Fiscal Years 2015-2019, adopted in June 2014, and its subsequent amendments.
Borough Presidents and community boards seeking further information about proposals in the Statement may contact the agency liaisons listed in Appendix C.
View the Citywide Statement of Needs for Fiscal Years 2015 and 2016
The Statement is submitted for review to the City Council, the borough presidents, borough boards and community boards. Within 90 days, the boards and the borough presidents may submit written comments to the Department of City Planning. During the same 90-day period, Borough Presidents may propose locations for any new city facilities to be located in their boroughs if the locations are consistent with the Criteria for the Location of City Facilities and with the specific siting criteria in the Statement of Needs. Any proposal subject to the Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP) which is not included in the Statement must be submitted to the affected Borough President for a 30-day review period before a ULURP application may be certified.

First time buyer numbers up, supply of houses down
The percentage of first time buyers buying homes has risen to the highest level since 2009, while the supply of houses has fallen, according to the National Association of Estate Agents – its figures indicated that first time buyer figures increased from 24% in October to 28% in November.
The number of sales reported by NAEA members fell to an average of nine sales per branch in November, down from ten in October. Of the average of nine homes sold overall per branch, an average of two was sold to a Help to Buy purchaser. The average number of househunters also dropped in November, down from an average of 332 per branch in October to 292 per branch in November.
At the same time, NAEA member agents reported a drop in the number of properties available for sale, down from an average of 53 in October to 51 in November, and that six out of ten houses in November sold for less than the asking price.
Review of 2013 farmland property market
"2013 has been an interesting year in the market for farms and land," says Chesterton Humberts Head of Rural, David Hebditch. "As always we have sold a number of different properties across the South West to a range of purchasers. With the spring being later than normal this year, we advised a number of vendors to hold off marketing until slightly later than we would normally. With more leaves on the trees and temperatures up by four to five degrees, this resulted in a later and perhaps more intense selling season, which we have seen run right through into the Autumn.
"Generally, values of quality land and property have continued to grow across the South West during 2013. However, 'quality' is the key, and although we are experiencing high levels of demand for all types of rural property, whether bare land, ring fenced farms, or traditional rural estates, most potential purchasers are increasingly sensitive to factors such as accessibility, rights of way, location and land versatility.
"As the months went on, it became clear that the 'lifestyle purchaser' was returning to the market, with a number of farms luring cash from east to west, a trend we have certainly seen less of over the last four or so years."
Quick house sales and the OFT
Following an OFT investigation, four national quick house sale companies have agreed to improve their business practices, including ensuring clarity in marketing materials, professional valuations, and promising not to reduce conditional or final offer prices without a valid reason.
OFT concluded that quick house sale companies can provide a beneficial service for people who require a fast sale of their home but identified some business practices that may not comply with the law and fall short of the standards the OFT would expect, such as giving misleading initial valuations, late reductions of the offer price and operating unclear fee structures.
Gaucho Rasmussen, OFT Director, Goods and Consumer Group, said: "Anyone who wishes to sell their home should always consider their full range of options. Should they choose to use a quick house sale company, we advise that they consider carefully what they are signing up to, ask questions and seek independent advice if they are unsure. Moving house can be very stressful and it is important consumers understand how a quick house sale differs from a more traditional type of sale and what this means for them in practice."

The U.S. Class I railroad workforce grew to 153,046 in July, up 1.76% from July 2009 and 1% from June 2010. But those figures do not reflect the extent of railroad traffic growth, which on a revenue ton-mile basis was up 6.4% in this year's first six months.
For that, analysts must examine the train operating crew numbers. This is the biggest single employment category, and its numbers rose to 60,4348 in July, up 6.4% from July 2009 and up 1.35% from June 2010.
The biggest year-over-year employment decline in July was in the category of executives, officials, and staff assistants, where the July number, 9,024, was down 3.82% from June, though up 0.49% from June 2010. Maintenance of equipment and stores declined to 28,039 in July, down 1.23% from July 2009 and also down 0.07% from June 2010.
Professional and administrative employment was 13,999 in July, up 1.14% from July 2009 and up 4.61% from June 2010.
Maintenance-of-way employment, 34,998, was off 1.22% from July 2009 and up 0.3% from June 2010.
The Class I employment index, which is based on same-month1967 as 100, shows that employment still trails pre-recession 2008. Theindex was 24.6 in July, compared with 24.1 in July 2009 and 26.4 in July 2008.
Bombardier Transportation said Friday it has received anorder from Norwegian financial services group DnB NOR (DnB NOR) for the delivery of six Bombardier FLEXITY Classic trams intended for service on a historic tram route in Stockholm, Sweden. The trams will be leased by Stockholm County Transit Authority (SL). The order is valued at about $27 million.
The new equipment will be used on the inner city tram line called Spårväg City, a historic route that will resume commercial service after several years of heritage tram traffic. Delivery of the FLEXITY Classictrams is scheduled between March and July 2011.
Bombardier says it also has been able to facilitate the immediate lease of six trams in order to enable commercial operation to start as soon as Monday, August 23. This deal is the result of Bombardier and SL's close cooperation with two public transit authorities, Sweden's Norrköpings Spårvägar (NSAB) and Germany's Stadtwerke Verkehrsgesellschaft Frankfurt am Main (VGF), together with DnB NOR's financial services. Until the new trams are delivered, Bombardier and DnB NOR have reached agreements with NSAB and VGF for the rental of three used trams from each operator.
Klas Wåhlberg, president of Bombardier Transportation Sweden, said in a statement, "Having grown and developed alongside SL for over a century, I am pleased that we were able to realize this unconventional tram lease solutionenabling SL to commence operation of the renewed Spårväg City line nearly one year ahead of scheduled delivery of the new trams. I am grateful to the traffic operators of Norrköpings and Frankfurt and to our financial partner DnB NOR for making this unique arrangement possible.
"We are proud to be able to deliver six more vehicles to Stockholm, as this order confirms that SL is satisifed with the quality and service provided by Bombardier and underscores our capability as a provider of light rail solutions," Wåhlberg added.
Portland, Ore., has been a trailblazer both for U.S. light rail transit and, even more significantly, for U.S. streetcar re-establishment. But as both systems expand into surrounding suburbs (and, possibly, a cross the stateline into Vancouver, Wash.), some parties continue to question whether bus options would be more efficient and/or less costly.
But a study commissioned by Metro, the elected regional government serving 25 cities within three counties including and surrounding Portland, says a streetcar linking Portland with Lake Oswego, roughly 8 miles to the south, would attract more ridership, offer better travel times, and be more cost-effective to maintain and operate.
Tony Mendoza, transit project analysis manager for Metro, presented results of the analysis to the Citizen Advisory Committee of the LakeOswego to Portland Transit project earlier this week. The ridership numbers and operations costs will be includedin the draft environmental impact statement submitted to the Federal TransitAdministration as summer ends. The full document is scheduled to be publishedat the end of September.
The streetcar is projectedto see between 11,170 and 11,920 rides per day in the year 2035, while anenhanced bus is projected at 9,810. Both would meet future demand, which isprojected to be 8,590 rides per day. If the system is not upgraded at all ("Nobuild"), the current TriMet Lines 35 and 36 are forecasted to be able to carryonly 6,920 riders on the same segment and would not meet projected demand.Today, an average of 2,340 people ride the bus.
Intermodal volume on U.S. railroads for the week ending Aug. 14, 2010 was the highest of 2010, up 20.8% from the same week in 2009, the Association of American Railroads reported Thursday. AAR noted intermodal traffic still was down 1.4% compared with 2008. Weekly container volume, a subset of intermodal, was the highest on record, up 22.4% from 2009, and even up 6.4% compared with the same week in 2008.
U.S. freight carload traffic continued to gain moderately, up 7.1% during the week ending Aug. 14 compared with the year-ago period, but down 11.3% compared with 2008 levels. Sixteen of the 19 carload commodity groups increased from the comparable week in 2009.
Canadian freight carload traffic rose 16.7% compared with a year ago, while intermodal advanced 18.5%. Mexican freight carload traffic rose 16.5%, while intermodal moved up 19.1%.
Combined North Americanrail volume for the first 32 weeks of 2010 on 13 reporting U.S., Canadian, and Mexican railroads was up 10.% from last year, while intermodal rose 14.5%.
Raymond A. Atkins will become the Surface Transportation Board's general counsel effective Sept. 1, Chairman Daniel R. Elliott III announced Thursday. Atkins will succeed Ellen D. Hanson, who served the Surface Transportation Board and its predecessor agency, the Interstate Commerce Commission, for 35 years and who retired last month.
Atkins has been an attorney since 2003 in the STB general counsel's office where he has handled the Board's major rate cases. He has served as chief of staff to Elliott since August 2009.
Elliott also announced that Timothy J. Strafford will become his new chief of staff. Strafford has worked in the STB's Office of Proceedings since 1999. Since 2006, he has served as assistant to the director of the Office of Proceedings. From November 2009 to June 2010 he was detailed to the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.
An Ontario judge has granted a group of Canadian National employees class action status in a dispute for unpaid overtime. Ontario Superior Court Justice Paul Perell released his decision Wednesday.
The class action was advanced on behalf of roughly 1,500 current and former CN first line supervisors. Michael McCracken alleges CN has misclassified first line supervisors as managers and that they are entitled, like other employees, to receive overtime pay.
"On behalf of all my colleagues at CN, I am very happy that the court ruled that the case is permitted to go forward," McCracken said.
The Ontario provincial government has endorsed the environmental assessment for the proposed light rail transit project in Ottawa, the nation's capital.
Ottawa's director of rail implementation, John Jensen, told city councilors late Tuesday that the provincial environment ministry had approved the city's environmental assessment on a key component of the C$2.1 billion (US$2.0 billion) project. That in turn is the first phase of a larger C$5.6 billion transit master plan that's been split into two parts and would be built during the next two decades.
Jensen called approval "a significant milestone" toward securing provincial funds and, also, obtaining federal environmental approval for the project.The environmental assessment examined the potential impact of the planned 12.5kilometers (7.75 miles) of LRT from Tunney's Pasture to Blair Station, as well as a controversial tunnel portion under downtown. The city had submitted its environmental project report to the province in June.
Ottawa has struggled with varying LRT plans for years.
The Capitol Corridor Joint Powers Authority (CCJPA) has applied for $57.2 million in Fiscal Year 2010 High Speed Intercity Passenger Rail funds to improve infrastructure between Roseville and Donner Summit and between the cities of Fremont and Newark. Union Pacific will contribute $10.3 million to the $51.1 million Roseville-Donner Summit project.
The improvements will allow the CCJPA to increase train service to Placer County and improve service reliability in Alameda County. Both projects are included in Caltrans Division of Rail's $582 million funding request to connect its existing passenger rail system to California's planned high speed rail system.
The Fremont-Newark project includes a Fremont/Centerville Depot platform extension that will enable improved schedule coordination of Capitol Corridor and ACE (Altamont Commuter Express) trains. Amtrak is the contract operator of both services; these projects would also benefit other Amtrak-operated train services that use UP-owned tracks in Northern California, such as California Zephyr long-distance trains.
The Roseville-Donner Summit improvements are in addition to work UP funded in 2009 to raise tunnel clearances over the Sierra Nevada Mountains. "By working with the CCJPA, we can leverage private dollars with public funds to achieve mutual benefits," said Union Pacific Vice President Public Affairs Scott Moore. "Both the Placer County and Fremont projects are great examples of how UP and CCJPA can create innovative solutions in transportation."
CCJPA said 570 jobs would be created with the federal funding.
