Excellent entertainment and games throughout the day and night. Perfect for families and couples! A lot going on all of the time. Staff are all very friendly, exciting and fluent in most languages which is very helpful for all of the guests. Very good variety of food which is also great quality, meat etc. Rooms are extremely clean and great views, maids come to clean everyday. One of the Pools was in the process of being refurbished (Definitely Needed!),however this didn't affect the atmosphere around the pool, terraces, bar etc. Highly recommended and I would certainly return for another ... relaxing holiday. read hotel review

The main entrance to the H10 Las Palmeras is glitzy when you spot it, though as it's in a row of shops/bars, you can walk past as we did for several years while holidaying in Playa de las Americas. However, now we've found it we stay at least twice a year as well as for special times such as anniversaries and birthdays. Lovely traditional/modern reception (but not minimalist, thanks goodness) with helpful knowledgeable staff, porterage if you want it, luggage room, lots of inside public space, cocktail and pub type bar, inside/outside entertainment areas with nightly shows geared to the ... hotels clientele. Everywhere is beautifully clean. The hotel has 8 guest floors with the 9th privately occupied with the usual mix of room and board options. Guests are multi-national, mainly couples, families with older children, and older people although. read hotel review

Anytime again in this hotel: clean, great food and perfect service. The hotel has already seen many tourists, but it is in a good, clean condition and well equipped - perfect price-performance ratio. The rooms are clean and big enough to stay, what else do you with the beautiful island and the good pool area not there. read hotel review

The hotel rooms in particular our room (530) in facilities with two single beds is maybe typical of the country but not suitable for couples. The bathroom with the swiveling shower partition made of glass was also after every duschgang under water. The promised mini bar was missing. Food was good and quite varied. All in all, a nice holiday, how much variation around the hotel. Just 4 stars are maybe a little excessive. read hotel review

The Nands have to be exact 132 MB (138.412.032 Bytes)
Thanks, do you use the NAND clips or you soldered?
Hello, can anyone help with the Badblocks a NAND has 4 and the other is clean to the left as:
And what firmware did you successfully downgrade from last?
I have a clip here, but its not save enough for me. I solder the progskeet directly to the nand. I downgraded 3.70, 4.00, 4.10, 4.11 till now and that many times. No problems. I use always only the patch 3.55, works for me every time.
I presume you only get 42 or 43 blocks modified on each NAND right? For I get 46 on average and then YLOD
Hi guys, i'm having some troubles with a ps3, got all the dumps patched and flashed back, when i power up the ps3 it goes black screen and then off after 15 secs. i'm using psfreedom as jig dongle to enter factory mode but when i plug it off and plug in the usb key with the self and pup files, the usb doesn't seem to be powered on by the ps3 and after a few secs the ps3 shuts down. i tried both patches with the same results with and without with no luck.
When i plug in the dongle the ps3 stays on for a few more seconds, i guess because it's actually working, i'm using progskeet 1.1, forgot to mention that i tested the dumps flashing them back and the ps3 was fully restored, i'm on 4.11 currently.
Hope someone can point me in the right direction cause i'm actually lost on this one
Thanks in advance
Got everything sorted out, it was a faulty jig dongle, just used another one and worked flawless, thx again for the amazing guide
Looks like this is the solution for downgrading my CECHG PS3 in 3.60 OFW to 3.55CFW

John Hopkins decides to take a sabbatical from motorcycle racing in an effort to get back to full racing fitness for 2014.
should retire
Go away and get fit and then rejoin BSB and get the title you deserve!Be strong
Pain is a pain. Get yourself fit and well and find yourself a seat in a championship that you can surely still make a decent impression upon - no question about it. Good luck.
Hopper, hang your leathers up dude, you have smashed yourself up too much and your body is now too fragile to take many more falls.It will get to the point of when you are riding you will be thinking 'what if' all the time which wont be good for your mind and also the riders around you.Go car racing or fishing and look back on a very good career with some great times.
Hopper won't be racing next season. He's taking next year out to fix his hip (possible hip replacement) and get back to full health physically as well as mentally. Good luck to him.
BREAKING NEWS!! Hopper annouced taking 2013 off as its not on crash yet
BREAKING NEWS!!davet1985 takes p*ss out of Maggers.
they changed the story b4 it says he was not racing now they updated it
Biaggi crash Race 1?
I'd love to see Hopper heading Suzuki's MotoGP return in 2014.

Recently, a mare at my barn has been sold, but the owners are not scheduled to pick her up for another two weeks. For the past five years, the mare has been ridden in five to six lessons a week, but will not be used in any lessons for the remaining two weeks that she will be at the barn. She is very energetic and tends to spook at everything - literally everything.
Therefore, my instructor was a little concerned about how ornery and high spirited she would be after two weeks of absolutely no work. Therefore she asked me to flat the mare a few times a week. Unfortunately, the times that she asked me to flat the mare coincide with someone else's lesson who is...to say it nicely, a novice that finds steering a bit challenging.
I rode the mare today, and she spooked on several occasions, attempted to kick several people as I tacked up, and tried to bolt. She was definitely riled up today, which I somewhat expected due to the cold weather we've been experiencing, but she was ridden in two lessons before me today. This was pretty unusual, as she is typically exhausted after about one lesson. Therefore, I can sense my instructor's concern.
I am not looking forward to riding her with the novice in the ring with me, as she was misbehaving today with ample exercise. She will, most likely, be even worse the next time I ride her, simply due to a lack of exercise. That problem is compounded by the other rider's steering challenges. Is there anything I can do to prevent a catastrophe?

Does anybody here know how a meadow evolves through stages until finally the tall trees , usually of one species, take over and smother out the other species? Well that has happened on this blog too. And as in the forest of old diseased trees, lightening must come and burn down the old growth and allow the sunshine to reach the ground again.
Yes it is quiet in the forest and on the blog tonight!

Halpin and Thomas could not be reached for comment before press time.
The Town Board voted to enlist the services of the labor law firm Roemer, Wallens, Gold and Mineaux to look into the accusations, which Magguilli said was done to avoid a conflict of interest as he is the attorney for the board.
"I cannot investigate my own client," said Magguilli. "In the best interest that is impartial, we would hire the law firm to look into this."
Magguilli added that the town has not yet taken any action with the law firm and has only given authorization to hire them. He said Dustin has yet to either admit or deny these allegations, adding that if Dustin were to admit to them then there would be no investigation.
"If there's a denial then we'll have to use the law firm," said Magguilli. "We'll have to see what Mr. Dustin is willing to do."
In regards to what disciplinary actions could be taken against Dustin by the board, Magguilli said the town code states they must "treat the public with consideration," and that an old town code can suspend an elected official without pay for 30 days.
"I'm not sure if that's even legal," said Magguilli. "We're not sure if the board can impose a fine."
Albany County Board of Election Republican Commissioner John A. Graziano said these actions taken by the town are "consistent with their approach" towards those who are not in line with the current administration in Colonie.
"I have no idea what the agenda is up there except to purge every Republican," he said, adding that enlisting the law firm is excessive. "It seems to be a pattern; anybody who's not on board with the current administration is a target. I don't see anything bad being said about people on board with the current administration."
Dustin, the only Republican on the Town Board, could not be reached for comment before press time.""

Ivanka Trump On The 2016 Race And Donald Trump As A Father
The audio:
The transcript:
HH: We begin with a very special guest. I have said for months now the best interview in America is Donald Trump. I have to revise that today, because I have the new best interview in America, Ivanka Trump, who is the executive vice president of the Trump Organization. Ivanka, welcome to the Hugh Hewitt Show with Jon Allen. It's great to have you, thank you for joining me on election day.
IT: Thank you, Hugh. I know you don't mean that, but I appreciate it regardless.
HH: No, I do mean that. I got a letter, an email last night. I told my wife that Ivanka was going to open the show, and Brigitte, her friend, sent me a bunch of stuff about you. You are fascinating to Americans, and they don't ever hear you interviewed. You haven't done many interviews, have you?
IT: I have done a couple of interviews, but not too many.
HH: Well, I appreciate this. I want to congratulate you, by the way, on the opening of the Old Post Office early. I read that story this morning. I had an office in the Old Post Office when the National Endowment for the Humanities was there, and I don't know how you turned that into a hotel.
IT: Oh, you're kidding. That's amazing. So I mean, you know, it's an unbelievable building, and it's got an unbelievable history, tallest building in Washington, D.C., and right on Pennsylvania Avenue between the White House and the Capitol. So it's just such a beautiful, grand building that was becoming dilapidated and was totally under-utilized. So the government actually put out a process looking for private sector redevelopment of the asset. It was a very onerous and very competitive RFD, and amazingly, the Obama administration selected the Trump Organization above hundreds of developers who were seeking this opportunity to redevelop the building. And we're going to be opening almost two years ahead of schedule. So I would say that's probably a first for Washington, D.C. and for Pennsylvania Avenue. Continue Reading

I think I know the answer for this question allready, but just as curious I am, I'll ask it anyways.
I'm running a webshop which products come with a csv file. I can import all the objectsng without any trouble, the only thing is that images and thumbnail locations are not exported with the the database dump. (it's never perfect heh) You might say, do it manually then, that's what I did in the first place, but after 200 products and RSI, I gave it up and looked for a better more efficient way to do this.
I have asked my distributer and I can use their images for my own goals without any having copyright problems.
When I look at the location of the images, the url looks like this:
Does anyone have a idea how this problem can be tackled?
For scraping a website, I found this code:
function save_image($pageID) {
$base = 'http://www.gistron.com';
//use cURL functions to "open" page
//load $page as source code for target page
//Find catalog/ images on this page
preg_match_all('~catalog/([a-z0-9\.\_\-]+(\.gif|\.png|\.jpe?g))~i', $page, $matches);
$matches[0] => array of image paths (as in source code)
$matches[1] => array of file names
$matches[2] => array of extensions
for($i=0; $i < count($matches[0]); $i++) {
$source = $base . $matches[0][$i];
$tgt = $pageID . $matches[2][$i]; //NEW file name. ID + extension
if(copy($source, $tgt)) $success = true;
else $success = false;
return $success; //Rough validation. Only reports last image from source
//Download image from each page
for($i=1; $i<=6000; $i++) {
if(!save_image($i)) echo "Error with page $i<br>";
For some reason it throws this error: Error with page 1, Error with page 2, etc

So, you want to represent your church or ministry with a name, directly from scripture, but the name "Jesus is our substitutionary atonement and the propitiation for our sins," won't fit on your business card?
Try beginning with a simple word picture, and common biblical theme. Psalm 19 tells us of God's level of dedication, provision, and discipline for his flock. In Luke, Jesus demonstrates His compassion and deep care for the wayward members of the fold. This "Good Shepherd" logo is designed to demonstrate Christ's compassion, and relentless pursuit of the strays.

Tatras Winter Adventure (8 days) - Slovakia - Starting 12th February 2012
It would be great to hear from anyone attending the Tatras Winter Adventure (8 days) - Slovakia - Starting 12th February 2012.
Hayley :-)
Hi Hayley
I have just booked the Tatras Adventure for the 12th February - can't wait! Have you skied before?
Hi Leanne,
Great to hear from you. Only 5 weeks to go, can't wait either!
I've done a bit of dry slope skiing but did 2 days snowboarding just over a year ago in New Zealand and loved it so am going to opt for snowboarding this time. I've only done 2 days before so I will be back to basics again. How about you? Are you taking the Heathrow flight out?
Hayley :-)
I haven't skiied before so fingers crossed I won't be useless! Yes, I'm on the Heathrow flight. You? I've just booked a hotel at the airport for the night before the flight as I'm travelling quite a long way. Have you booked with the adventure company before?
You'll be fine, it'll be really good fun! I'm on the heathrow flight too, not sure if we will be getting any instructions to meet at the airport or whether we meet in the arrivals hall once we arrive? I haven't booked with the adventure company before, this is the first time I have been on arganised trip by myself before. Only 4 weeks to go now, really looking forward to it! Have you been on a trip like this before?
Hayley :-)
Hi Hayley
Around 2 weeks before departure we send out Joining Instructions - these have printed copies of e-tickets as well as instructions on how you will be met on arrival.
Some customers have used these forums to arrange to meet up at the airport before depature. The only thing we would say is make sure you make arrangements to meet up in a public place - as these forums are open for all to read.
Just so you know, there are 10 people booked on the trip so far. The majority of the group are in their late 20s and early 30s, with a few in their 40s and 50s.
I hope you all have a great holiday.
Sean Hughes
Customer Operations Manager
Thank you for your message Sean, really helpful advice. Really looking forward to it now, can't wait to receive the final documentation. Hayley :-)
Hi Hayley
Not long to go now!! I can't believe how quickly it has come around. Some last minute shopping at the weekend is required!
I also haven't been on a trip like this before. Are you all set?
Hi Leanne,
I'm almost set but like you, I still have a few last minute bits to get. Got a really busy week ahead but will hopefully be all ready by the weekend! Really looking forward to it now! Look forward to meeting you, Hayley :-)
Hi Hayley and Leanne
I'm also coming on this trip and I'm really looking forward to it. I've only been skiing once, many years ago on a school skiing holiday, and I've always wanted to do it again but never had the chance. I was also meant to do dog sledding when I went on a Hurtigruten holiday in Norway a couple of years ago, but it was cancelled due to bad weather so that is something else I really want to do.
I'm also flying out from Heathrow. It says we have to check in 3 hours before the flight - seems ridiculous to me; at Southampton airport you only have to check in 30 minutes before! It means we have to be there at about 6.00am - I'm wondering whether to book just airport parking or whether to go for an overnight stay in a hotel where I can leave the car. (I live on the South Coast.) Then of course having got up in the middle of the night we then have to hang around for 3 hours waiting for our flight! It would be a good idea if we could meet up when we check in?
By the way, do either of you know what the baggage allowance is for the flight?
Hi Linda,
Glad to hear you will be joining us and looking forward to the trip. It's my 30th birthday on Saturday so I'm actually going up the night before for dinner and a hotel stay which means not having to get up so early on the Sunday. I'm having breakfast with some friends who are staying with me the night before so I will probably meet everyone in the arrivals lounge in Vienna.
I'm afraid I'm not too sure on weight limit, I'm just trying to do it as light as poss but I'd advise emailing the Adventure Company and they will be able to let you know for definitie.
See you and Leanne soon,
Hayley :-)

In Your Community Q&A
Making Your Life and Legacy Count; Guest Blog By David Howard
David Howard is more than a Director of Gas Supply at Consumers Energy; he is a father, mentor and active volunteer in his community. For years, he has helped Big Brothers Big Sisters of Jackson County (BBBS) and the Jackson Interfaith Shelter (JIF) touch the lives of many.
In celebration of National Mentoring Month and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service, we are honored to feature Dave's service journey.
Tell us about your support of Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) and the Jackson Interfaith Shelter (JIF).
Going on seven years, I have been a Big Brother to Romy. BBBS resonated with me after I experienced as a dad how hard it is to raise kids even with a stable home, family and resources. There are many kids who are not provided a stable base and upbringing so I wanted to make a difference for at least one child. I am proud to say that Romy is growing up to be a great young man.
For six years, I have helped JIF put on their "Give Me Shelter" concert series. The monthly event features a pop-up coffee shop with free coffee, dessert and live music. JIF is a place where we have the opportunity to meet those who need a hand in getting a fresh start in life. Some may not have the capability or resources to turn things around, however, I've learned that they all need love. That is what I strive to provide each one of them.
Why should others get involved?
I strongly encourage others to consider how they are blessed and how they can use their talents to give back. In my experience as a BBBS mentor, being present to offer hope as a role model makes a world of a difference. The reward is priceless when you see a child progress in school, have hopes of a successful career and gain a chance at a better life.
In my own journey, two things have been most rewarding thus far. First is seeing my mentee Romy, who could hardly read or maintain interest in school when we initially met, blossom into a young man who is working hard for himself to be successful. Second is when Romy told me, "I hope we stay in touch forever."
Your impact as a mentor extends beyond a week, month or year. These kids have the opportunity to turn around their lives forever with your help.
What are some words you can offer in honor of National Mentoring Month and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service?
I want to challenge everyone to participate in National Mentoring Month and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service. Will your life and legacy count in such a manner that your community is better off because you were here? It's your choice. I encourage you to take the first steps to make a difference.

The Intern Challenge: Winner Announcement
The Intern Challenge has come to a close and the results are in! 150 Consumers Energy interns, organizing 33 service projects for 27 non-profit organizations, have definitely left their communities better than they found them. For judging purposes, the Intern Challenge group winners were determined based on small and large group categories.
The winner of the small group division was the Community Developers. This group took on multiple projects to improve the quality of living for all ages and beautify the community of Jackson. Their projects included:
- Picking up over 60 gallons of trash within a three and a half mile area in downtown Jackson.
- Beautifying gardens at the United Way of Jackson County and the Jackson Friendly Home, an assisted living facility for women at least 60 years of age.
The winner of the large group division was appropriately named the Gold Team. This team focused on inspiring local youth and leaving a permanent mark on their community. Their projects included:
- Building a bench located in a local park in Port Sheldon Township.
- Volunteering at the Holland Boys and Girls Club where they designed activities about wind turbines, polymers, and electromagnetism to show kids how science can be fun.
Although these two teams came out on top, all of the participants and their communities are winners this summer. The skills and experiences our interns gained throughout the Intern Challenge will stay with them far beyond their time at Consumers Energy. To see our Intern Challenge groups' accomplishments, follow #CEVolunteers on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

Guest Blog: Jessica Spagnuolo, Consumers Energy Sustainability Lead for Environmental Services, Discusses How Consumers Energy Continues To Go Green
Each year, about 164 million tons of solid waste goes into landfills across the country. In order to be stewards of the earth, Consumers Energy employees are taking steps to reduce the company's environmental footprint, leaving the Great Lakes State better than we found it.
We will continue supporting sustainable efforts by saving 1 million cubic yards of landfill space through 2019 ─ the equivalent of five football fields stacked from goal line to goal line, 100 feet deep.
Conserve water with these sustainable tips at home
To accomplish this goal, our employees are encouraged to adopt an environmentally conscious culture by reducing, reusing and recycling waste. This will affect our daily work by:
- Rethinking how we manage and avoid generating waste
- Changing how we order products, how much we order and how they are packaged
- Using what we purchase and purchasing only what we need
- Altering how we demolish a building, considering "deconstruction" to repurpose the materials
- Reconsidering how we can best utilize surplus materials so that disposal is the very last option
- Updating work processes, such as deciding, "Do I really need to print this?"
We all have the ability to help sustain Michigan economically, environmentally and socially. In doing so, we need to think about how our jobs impact the environment and our communities.
Support Green Generation renewable energy from your home or business today!
In addition to teaching individual responsibilities to employees, we have also established company "Green Teams" across the state. Their purpose is to lead local waste avoidance programs, conduct waste assessments and report on progress. Leaders of "Green Teams" enjoyed our Reduce, Reuse and Recycle It Better workshop below:
How Much Has Consumers Energy Recycled?
Since 1992, Consumers Energy has recycled about 704,800 cubic yards of materials like:
- 537,547 gallons of antifreeze
- 6,164,640 gallons of used oil
- 268,922 gallons of fuel
- 16,738 gallons of paint
- 644,777 pounds of batteries
- 633,923 pounds of lamps
- 112,566 pounds of lighting ballasts
- 26,969 pounds of mercury equipment
- 66,575 tons of metal
- 146,657 yards of paper
- 68,300 yards of cardboard
- 195,467 pounds of electronics
- 259,726 tons of wood and wood products
- 4,985 tons of electrical equipment
By reducing, reusing and recycling our waste, we are leaving behind a planet that our children and our grandchildren can enjoy.

What Happens When You Call 811? Celebrate Safe Digging Month in Michigan
Each year, hundreds of accidents are caused by careless digging. From planting a tree to building a deck, many projects can result in damage to utility lines, service interruptions, property damage, financial penalties and personal injuries. Prevent damage to yourself or your neighborhood by making the call to 811. It's the law.
Why Call 811 Before Digging?
April is Safe Digging Month, a time to reflect on safe digging practices for homes and businesses. Calling 811 will connect diggers to MISS DIG, the construction safety and utility damage prevention center for Michigan. MISS DIG prevents damage to Michigan neighborhoods in three steps:
- MISS DIG receives a request.
- Depending on the service request location, MISS DIG contacts local utility companies that provide natural gas, electricity, sewer, water, cable fiber optic and others who have lines buried underground.
- Within three business days, the local utilities will send representatives to mark the digging location with paint or colored flags.
Dig a hole– win prizes! Learn more.
5 Safe Digging Tips for Homeowners
Below are safety tips every homeowner should know before beginning a spring project:
- Call 811/MISS DIG three working days before you plan to dig.
- Make sure all utility lines are marked. Contact 811/MISS DIG to confirm.
- Respect the marks made by utility locators when using shovels or power equipment. Avoid using mechanized digging equipment near marks.
- Choose another location to begin your project if the original site is near utility lines.
- If you hired a contractor, confirm a call to 811/MISS DIG was made before they begin work on your property.

Guest Blog: Stephanie Schiro, United Way Community Resource Associate, Explains How Michiganders Can Get Involved in Their Communities
Volunteering has long been a pillar of the United Way. Many years ago, Consumers Energy recognized the opportunity to become supporters of the United Way, not only through generous donations of money but also with time and talents.
As we celebrate National Volunteer Week, it's important to reflect on all the ways volunteering can benefit our wonderful state. National Volunteer Week is a time for individuals to take action and get engaged in their communities. It's a way to demonstrate nationally that communities can work together, face challenges and accomplish goals.
When individuals volunteer, they are:
- Uniting communities
- Caring about their neighborhood
- Encouraging others to become invested
- Meeting new friends
- Learning new skills
- Making lasting changes to their environment
Volunteering can also bring about understanding of community needs, leading to empathy and a better awareness of the struggle our neighbors face. Because one volunteer hour is worth roughly $23, organizations can spend more money and resources on local improvements.
Consumers Energy Employees Support Volunteerism in Michigan
There are so many ways United Way has benefited from Consumers Energy employees generously giving their time, talents and resources. Across the state, its employees:
- Sit on United Way (and a lot of other nonprofit) boards, influencing and supporting our mission to "improve lives by mobilizing the caring power of communities around the world to advance the common good."
- Engage in our annual campaigns on an executive level (helping plan and coordinate strategies) and at a one-on-one level as ambassadors to their co-workers.
- Are members of our community solution teams, deciding how our campaign funds are allocated between programs.
I have no doubt that the future of volunteerism in Michigan will continue to thrive and grow as Consumers Energy and the United Way work together to connect our communities for the common good.
Volunteering has taught me how to give back in creative and new ways, appreciate the uniqueness of my community, and how to step outside of my comfort zone to grasp the hand of a neighbor in need. Volunteering is also a proven stress reliever, which I have found to be very true in my life. When I am volunteering, I can let the stressors of daily life slide away and focus on the project I am working on. It puts my problems into perspective and reminds me to let the little things go and focus on the big picture.
One of my favorite volunteer experiences was when I helped with the Downtown Development Authority's Spring Beautification in Downtown Jackson. There were so many different types of people coming together to clean up downtown. From young professionals to families with young children to individuals that were physically and mentally disabled, there was a job for every single person that wanted to help. We were able to come together on a gorgeous spring afternoon and create a beautiful park that everyone could enjoy.
Where Should You Volunteer?
For Michigan residents that are looking to get involved with their community, I would recommend finding your local volunteer center. Local volunteer centers will have a comprehensive view of what projects are available in your area. For example, here in Jackson County, our volunteer portal has over 40 opportunities ranging from one time projects to weekly commitments. You can also check out the state volunteer portal.
If you have an idea for a volunteer project, don't be afraid to reach out to your local nonprofits! There are so many instances where nonprofits want to begin a new project but don't have the right people to initiate it. If you have specific skills and the time to volunteer, make a call and see who could benefit from your expertise.

Michigan Hydros Help Bald Eagle Recovery; Consumers Energy Provides Habitats to Species
In 2014, bald eagles reached a record 750 breeding pairs in Michigan thanks to Consumers Energy's effort to enhance habitats. Michigan dams, including a number of Consumers Energy's hydros, create backwater habitats where eagles can find secluded nesting sites and plenty of fish that are safe for them to eat.
The 750 bald eagle breeding pairs estimated by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is the highest number since their census has been taken.
Consumers Energy's Bald Eagle Management Plan
In the 1970s, chemicals like PCB and DDT were banned because they caused eagles' eggshells to thin and break during the bird's incubation. This severely reduced the eagle population across Michigan and the continental U.S.
The areas around our hydro reservoirs provided refuge for eagles and other wildlife, since the dams block toxins transported by migrating Great Lakes fish. Consumers Energy's bald eagle management plan includes:
- Protecting old growth white pines
- Establishing a protection zone to minimize disturbance for each nest
- Protecting the eagles' food supply
- Contributing to eagle productivity census flights
- Successfully exceeding productivity goal of 1.0 eagles fledged per nest
- Successfully added new breeding territories which increased annual eagle productivity on the hydros by more than 50 percent
Bald Eagle Fun Facts
There's more to a bald eagle than being known as the United States' national bird. Get the facts below:
- The bald eagle isn't actually bald. Its white head only appears bald from a distance.
- The bird can only be found in North America.
- Bald eagles choose one mate for the rest of their lives—unless they become widowed.
- The bird can't swim—but will sit in the water and row itself with its wings.
- Bald eagles have no sense of smell. They can only sense if their food is spoiled after tasting.
Consumers Energy, Michigan State University Prepare Students for Future Careers in Michigan
Consumers Energy is proud to support Michigan engineering and technical talent.
On Friday, Michigan State University celebrated a recent contribution of $200,000 from the Consumers Energy Foundation, which includes a redesigned lobby in MSU's East Wilson Hall and support to students in the College of Engineering's Cornerstone and Residential Experience Program (CoRe).
CoRe is a first-year academic program that prepares students for a future career in engineering with activities including mock interviews.
Students like James McCormick, senior electrical engineering major at Michigan State University, are sought after by Consumers Energy to keep Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) talent in the Great Lakes State. McCormick has worked as a Consumers Energy Cooperative Assistant for two years, experiencing real, in-the-field work he's been able to take back to the classroom.
McCormick has accepted a full-time position with Consumers Energy, officially joining our company when he graduates December 2015.
We are pleased to work with Michigan State University to provide exciting career-building opportunities to Michigan students. Last summer, Consumers Energy hired more than 50 MSU students as interns, and we currently employ over 400 MSU graduates.
"Consumers Energy is committed to attracting Michigan's next generation of talented college graduates to work with us," said John Butler, senior vice president of Human Resources and Shared Services at Consumers Energy.
We also support the "Get into Energy" campaign, inspiring and educating college students and future employees about the energy industry.

Shining the Spotlight on Michigan Theaters; Consumers Energy Supports the Arts
there's buzz about the best movies and top actors in Hollywood. Lucky for us, we can experience the best entertainment has to offer by visiting the many theaters right here in Michigan. From motion picture theaters to live performance venues, there are many opportunities to enjoy the arts with friends and family.
In the last two decades, Consumers Energy and the Consumers Energy Foundation contributed $725,000 to theaters and theatre organizations
across Michigan. The support comes from a large mix of company donations and grants.
The renovation of The Vogue Theatre in Manistee is a heartwarming example of how Consumers Energy has made a cultural and economic
impact to many Michigan cities. With help from the Consumers Energy Foundation, the theater was renovated in 2012 after the community rallied together to restore the vacant building. The Vogue Theatre's restoration has become a catalyst for downtown redevelopment in Manistee.
Consumers Energy Employees Support the Arts
Consumers Energy employees have dedicated years of volunteer service to the arts and many theaters across Michigan.
Chuck Sartorius, Consumers Energy Lead Business Architect, has had many roles at the Mid-Michigan Family Theatre and Riverwalk Theatre in the Lansing area. After years of work in the arts, Sartorius believes the theater allows creative thinking for many Michiganders — especially youth.
"Getting youth involved and exposed to theater yields not only an appreciation for the arts, but exposes them to ways to express creativity and become more confident," said Sartorius.
Doug Meyers, Consumers Energy Senior Engineer Lead, agrees it's essential to introduce our youth to the arts. For more than 24 years, he has held many community theater roles, including Chairman of Youth Theater for Center Stage Jackson.
"In a lot of cases, the arts are being pulled from schools' budgets, and theater is a great opportunity for kids to participate," said Meyers. "We're filling a niche that used to be provided to kids for no cost."Read Full Post | Make a Comment ( Comments Off on Shining the Spotlight on Michigan Theaters; Consumers Energy Supports the Arts )
Guest Blog: Carrie Schneider, Consumers Energy Community Programs Manager, Urges Michiganders to Participate in Walks for Warmth
Anne Frank once said, "No one has ever become poor by giving." The history of Community Action Agencies is embedded in this philosophy and the humanitarian principles that say we all have a responsibility for helping people overcome the obstacles that would prevent them from sharing in the benefits of living in the United States of America.
In 1964, the U.S. Congress passed the Economic Opportunity Act (EOA). This Act was meant to guarantee equal opportunity for everyone and for all practical purposes; this Act commenced the "War on Poverty". More than 1,000 community-based organizations called Community Action Agencies (CAAs) were created across the country to:
- Coordinate federal funds and other resources
- Engage citizens to educate and train impoverished residents
- Help residents achieve economic stability and prosperity
The 29 Community Action Agencies that serve 83 Michigan counties have been successful at what they were originally charged to do. They have:
- Brought diverse resources and talents together
- Leveraged public and private supporters like Consumers Energy
- Enlisted volunteers
- Involved clients and non-service users alike in problem solving initiatives
The Bitter Truth in Michigan
One of the many challenges that CAA offices confront is the face of poverty in this country, and likewise Michigan, has changed quite a bit from the "Appalachian poor" to the "working poor". And the face of poverty in each community is unique, which compounds the issue. Today:
- Nearly one out of every three families in the United States is considered to be "low income"
- Almost half of U.S. households live one crisis away from the breadline
- Of the 17 percent of Michigan residents who experience poverty in Michigan, over 23 percent of them are children.
I had an opportunity last year to spend some time at the Jackson CAA office. While I didn't know what to expect, it didn't take me long to realize that my understanding of those in need was skewed. The line was clear out the door and nearly every person standing in line had at least one child with him or her.
This was not an atypical day for the staff. The hours ticked by but the line remained steadfast. I witnessed middle class families having to ask for help for the first time. The fear and embarrassment that they relayed brought me to tears. One could never imagine having to literally scrape change together, walk many blocks to a bus stop (children in tow), wait for hours in line at the CAA office, only to be told that their services for the day have concluded before you ever get to the front of the line. And, sadly they had to get back on a bus with the realization that they had to do it all over again the next day. The despair these households face day in and day out is heart wrenching, but their courage and fortitude is inspiring.
Make a Difference with Consumers Energy
What the CAA staff members do on a daily basis is nothing short of heroic. It is through similar compassion and the guilt of having to turn people away due to lack of funds that an annual fundraiser was born. The CAAs developed the Walk for Warmth more than 25 years ago. It was organized to promote public awareness concerning low-income individuals and families experiencing home heat-related utility emergencies.
This is Consumers Energy's fourth year participating in Walks for Warmth. Our employees will be supporting 34 Walks covering 35 counties. Last year, we collectively raised over $300,000 to support the cause.
The need for help this year is just as high as it was last year, even without the polar vortex. The needs of Michigan residents have become far greater than service agencies and churches can handle without additional financial resources such as the Walks for Warmth.
At Consumers Energy we continue to work towards leaving it better than we found it and caring for the Michigan communities we serve. I can't think of a more impactful, or gratifying way than to move our feet to give others heat. I hope that you and your family and friends will decide to participate in at least one of the Walks throughout the state. I promise that you will instantly understand the "why" we do the Walks and you will leave feeling blessed for what you have.
I am thankful to work for a company that believes the same as Edward Everett Hale, "I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And I will not let what I cannot do interfere with what I can do."

Consumers Energy sponsored the 2015 CE Robotics Fair in support of the FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robotics program. The fair attracted about 200 attendees to cheer on teams and support the initiative including:
- 9 Schools
- 14 teams
- 140 students
- Consumers Energy employees, vice presidents and volunteers
- Michigan media
- FIRST employees
- Michigan government leaders
Every year, the robotics fair is organized by Consumers Energy's WEN (Women in Engineering Network) to bring in new mentors from Consumers Energy to help FIRST FTC student teams compete. Mentoring robotics teams is very rewarding for the mentor—you get a real sense of satisfaction in helping a team learn and grow.
The event demonstrates the importance of robotics programs for the future of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) careers. It's also a great opportunity for the teams to show off what they have accomplished during the past year.
The 14 teams who attended the 2015 Robotics Fair consisted of:
- 11 FIRST FTC (First Tech Challenge) teams that compete at the Middle School level
- 1 FIRST FRC (First Robotics Competition) team that competes at the High School level
- 1 FIRST FLL (First Lego League) team that competes at the Elementary School level
- 1 Robofest team that competes at both Middle and High School levels
Bringing Michigan Students of STEM Together
During the robotics fair, the FTC teams rotated through four activities:
1. Presenting to a small panel of judges as they competed for three awards including:
- Best Presentation
- Most Creative
- Most Complete Design
2. Showing off their robots on the FTC practice field
3. Collaborating with Consumers Energy employees and other teams
4. Enjoying a networking lunch
The practice field was a new addition this year and the robotics teams really enjoyed it. Each year our teams get more and more innovative, and the progress they have made is just amazing.
I believe kids need to see that they can make a difference in the world. Our children are our future, and any help we can offer to make that future better is important.

Additional Location Information
What a difference a coast makes! For a minute I thought I was in another country. Trees dripping with Spanish Moss lined a slow moving river who's calm was only broken by the chug of a fishermen laden boat returning with the day's catch. A gorgeous old southern style, veranda wrapped house, brought back to life as an elegant restaurant, occupied the spot across the water, while a tiny island, habitated only by monkeys, lay midstream.
The monkeys, relocated to their island habitat from a now defunct Florida animal park, enjoy the gorgeous view everyday. I was only visiting "Florida's Nature Coast" for the weekend. And even though the vista from the villa had an almost meditative effect on me, there was much more to see and do in this fascinating, but little known, corner of Florida that's less than two hours drive from Orlando, Tampa or Daytona.
