Port Everglades experienced a third quarter of double-digit growth in containerized cargo over the same time period last year, which officials believe is a positive sign of economic recovery in South Florida.
Container cargo throughput in TEUs, or "20-foot equivalent units," which is the cargo industry's standard container measurement, increased 10.6 percent during the third quarter of the fiscal year, April through June 2011, compared to the same period last year. For the first nine months of the Port's fiscal year ending June 30, 2011, TEUs totaled 674,675, up 12.1 percent, up from the 601,771 TEUs the previous year. While remaining lower than the number of TEUs over the same period three years ago (FY 2008) when Port Everglades reached an all-time high in container traffic, this recent increase is a positive trend that has been growing since last summer.
"Seeing three consecutive quarters of growth in the cargo sector makes us more confident that South Florida's economy is rebounding," says Port Everglades Director Phil Allen. "Nearly all container cargo lines that call on the Port have contributed to this growth."
Port Everglades is moving forward with several capital improvements to foster growth in containerized cargo at the Port. The Port's major expansion projects include adding cargo berths, widening and deepening the waterways to 50 feet, and bringing freight rail into the Port. The Florida Department of Transportation broke ground in July 2011 for construction of the Eller Drive Overpass project, which will allow trains carrying both international and domestic cargo to enter the Port at ground level to connect to a near-dock Intermodal Container Transfer Facility expected to be completed in late 2013. The Port recently completed construction of a 41-acre containerized cargo terminal, most of which has been leased to SeaFreight Agencies (USA) Inc. and Crowley Liner Services, Inc. The Port also purchased a new mobile harbor crane that has the capability to load containers and handle heavy lifts of up to 100-tons from ship to shore.
Allen also notes that the recently updated Port Everglades' 20-Year Master/Vision Plan aligns with the findings of the Florida Chamber Foundation's Florida Trade and Logistics Study. The study, released in December 2010, found that Florida stands to benefit directly from the Panama Canal expansion and growth in Latin America and the Caribbean, which ultimately will provide the potential to increase job creation and, through the development of Florida's 14 deepwater seaports, it will position the state to become a global trade and logistics hub.

This is an amazing service. Wide variety with great pricing. Our groceries were in our room when we got to Disney and it was so convenient!
I have used the Garden Grocer , several times,,, excellent service and value.
Overall great experience! The website was easy to use (it was even easy to modify the original order), good variety, follow-up after the order was placed, received confirmation after the order was delivered. The quality of the food received was good. (Nothing with past or near expiration dates, nice produce selected.) I was quite pleased with the service, and will use again.

2nd energy efficiency index published
The Institute for Energy Efficiency in Production (EEP) of the University of Stuttgart published the 2nd energy efficiency index in the framework of the energy summit in the Stuttgart Porsche Museum on 1st July 2014, with participation from around 150 decision-makers from business and politics.
This shows a positive trend: the significance of energy efficiency in the companies continues to increase, also compared to the last survey six months ago. 46 % of the company see the significance as relatively large.
Prof. Thomas Bauernhansl, Head of the EEP, assessed the development at the energy summit: "Even if we still have a great deal of work ahead of us in terms of energy efficient production, we can nevertheless recognise that the trend in all areas of the index is positive. After all for 38 % of the company energy efficiency is a concrete reason for investments and not only a side effect of new procurements. This is a good sign."
The EPP of the University of Stuttgart publishes the energy efficiency index every half year. Whilst the first survey last winter recorded a trend for too few investments in energy efficiency and for fewer ambitious savings targets, a clear positive development can be recognised in the second survey.
If the share of the companies that made less than 5% of their investments in energy efficient technologies was 63%, it is now only 50% in the summer of 2014. The share of the questioned companies wishing to save over 10 % of their energy is currently 20 %. This corresponds to an increase of 16 % compared to the first survey. A similar picture results from the savings targets of the companies: if only nearly 79% of the companies wanted to save less than 5% of their energy in winter 2013, this value has now declined to 64.8%. In return the share of companies wishing to save over 10% rose from 4.5 to 18.5%.
The efficiency summit Stuttgart 2014 was opened with a video message from Rainer Baake, representing Economy and Energy Minister Sigmar Gabriel. He described the position and the approach of the Federal Government in terms of energy efficiency in production and the significance for the turnaround in energy policy. "Above all Minister Gabriel would like to underline the significance the topic of energy efficiency has, since without increasing energy efficiency there will be no turnaround in energy policy", according to the State Secretary. "The Federal Government first and foremost wishes to move companies to do more for increasingly efficient dealings with energy by giving them incentives."
"The topic of energy efficiency in production now finally has to be massively promoted", underlined the founders of the EEP Institute, Heinz Dürr and Karl Schlecht. "The massive development of efficiency technologies challenges German engineering skills and has a high employment potential. And: it helps the environment since the cleanest energy is still the one that doesn't have to be produced at all", according to the Chairman of the EEP Advisory Board, Heinz Dürr.

Children's LiteratureThis title from the "I am Your Pet" series is delightful. Written in the first person from the viewpoint of a cat, it is an informative and enjoyable read. The attraction begins with the cover, a close up photo of a cat's eyes that is virtually irresistible. The text covers a brief history of cats and information on choosing a healthy and happy pet cat, as well as detailed information about cat care. Photographs of different cats engaged in various activities cover the majority of the space on the pages. The text is presented in short paragraphs around the photos. The layout is very easy to read and appealing to the eye. A very detailed table of contents and index are both provided, as well as a glossary and lists providing additional reading and web sites. This is a wonderful title and a must have for all children's libraries. 2004, Gareth Stevens, Ages 5 to 10.

When will this recession end? I'd really like to know and I bet you would too. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it will end any time soon. Ohio has been especially hard hit by the down economy. We have a high concentration of auto related industry in our region, and the aftershock of both Chrysler and GM bankruptcies are still jolting our economy. It's not all bad though. A recent Team NEO study measuring Scientific and Technical Services growth was very encouraging for our region. Over the past 15 years, the study calculated a near 80% increase in investment. That's good news! The region needs these types of R/D investments to pull out of the economic doldrums now rocking the country.
Airlines (and therefore airports) are struggling right now as well. Ticket demand, particularly business and international traffic, is way down compared to last year. Many experts believe that there are still too many seats being offered in the US market, even with the dramatic cuts made by airlines in the later half of 2008 and throughout 2009. USA Today offers a great mapping feature to see real time reductions in airline seat capacity. More cuts are on the way too.
So, how is CAK faring in all this turmoil? So far, so good. Our passenger figures are up 1.3% for the first half of 2009 compared to the same period last year. That means that our cash flow is relatively stable and we don't have to make any dramatic cuts to our people, capital plans or other investments. We've had a couple of air service wins too- a new flight to DC aboard US Airways and AirTran Airways is commencing new flights to Ft. Lauderdale later this year. We are luckier than most. We may not post another record year in 2009, but I think we'll be close to even and in this economy, that is a really good story.

The Transnet National Ports Authority (TNPA) in South Africa has ordered a Pilot Cutter 2706 and its fifth Stan Tug 2006 with Damen Shipyards Cape Town for operations in the expanding Port of Saldanha (South Africa).
Both vessels have been specifically designed for the South African market. The Pilot Cutter 2706 will be delivered in May 2013 and the tug in March 2013.
TNPA already operates four Damen Stan Tugs in South Africa. The STu 2006 is an enlarged design, based on the STu 1906. This parent vessel was adapted to the specific needs of the South African ports, namely increased payload and hull speed as well as increased stern gear protection while handling submerged equipment.
The new tug will be used for general port services and pilot duties in Saldanha, South Africa's largest deepwater port. Under a recently started programme by President Zuma, aimed at investing in infrastructure and generating jobs, Saldanha's port is expanding rapidly. Currently the port's main export product is iron ore, while its main import product is oil.
Pilot Cutter renewal program
Embracing this initiative, TNPA has decided on a renewal programme of, amongst others, its pilot boats. The new Pilot Cutter 2706 has been designed by Damen Shipyards Cape Town (DSCT) in conjunction with Triton Naval Architects, and is customized for South African conditions. There is, for example, an entrance channel to the Port of Saldanha which is fairly narrow for large ships. Hence, the pilots board incoming vessels as far as 10-15 miles from the harbour entrance. This service condition has resulted in a specific hull shape capable of handling the adverse sea conditions experienced further out, whilst still maintaining speed. The interior design (bridge, propulsion, HVAC, etc.) is based on long-standing and proven technology of Damen pilot boats.
Cape Town
Both vessels will be built at DSCT. Recently the yard has started an expansion programme with the building of a new vessel construction shed and office/workshop building to cater for increased demand and growing work force. DSCT has furthermore established its own Apprentice Training Centre in order to provide government recognised training and qualification for welders and boiler makers so as to add capacity and create sustainable employment opportunities.

They urged enactment of their plan "focused on helping Americans avoid falling off the fiscal cliff no one wants to talk about, the looming bankruptcy of Medicare." The "Corker-Alexander Dollar-for-Dollar Plan" would reduce the growth of entitlement spending (Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security) by nearly $1 trillion in order to improve the programs' solvency. In exchange, Congress would approve the president's expected request for a $1 trillion increase in the debt ceiling. (Click HERE for the bill summary; click HERE for the bill text.)
"Millions of Americans are counting the days until they are eligible for Medicare. It would be tragic if Medicare were bankrupt when that day comes," the senators said.
That day will come in 11 years, according to the latest Medicare trustees report, which says that in 2024, Medicare won't be able to pay all its benefits. When the Hospital Insurance Trust Fund is exhausted, the trustees estimate that revenues into the program will only be sufficient to cover 87 percent of costs.
"Medicare can't survive when the average working couple retiring at age 65 continues to receive $3 in benefits for every $1 they pay into the program during their lifetimes," the senators said, citing statistics from the Urban Institute. On October 5, the Urban Institute reported that an average married working couple will contribute about $122,000 in payroll taxes to Medicare over their lifetimes and consume about $387,000 in Medicare benefits.
They said, "It is dishonest for Washington to cover up the true cost of the government services it delivers. No one wants to talk about this. But unless we act, at some point these programs will go bankrupt and services will disappear. The first victims of this Medicare fiscal cliff – the fiscal cliff no one in Washington wants to talk about– are older Americans, millions of whom have no other way to pay their medical bills. The second victims are younger Americans who expect us to solve our fiscal issues so they aren't saddled with debt.
"It would be a colossal failure of leadership if the president does not now take advantage of proposals such as ours. There are 535 of us in Congress with ideas, but there is only one president. The president needs to do as good a job rescuing seniors in danger of falling off the Medicare fiscal cliff as he has persuading Americans that Congress should raise taxes on the rich."
To "provide more certainty to help the economy grow," they said their proposal also anticipates the president's expected request to raise the debt ceiling by $1 trillion – an amount equal to their proposed nearly $1 trillion reduction in the growth of entitlement spending. "Legislative language for our plan is public and is ready for Congress to act upon," they said.
The "Dollar for Dollar Act," S. 3673, introduced by Senator Corker on Dec. 12 and co-sponsored by Senator Alexander, contains provisions recommended by President Obama's Debt Commission (Simpson-Bowles) as well as by former Republican Senator Pete Domenici and Alice Rivlin, budget director for former President Clinton.
They said the plan, which would allow seniors to continue to choose traditional Medicare among several options, would:
*Structurally reform Medicare, keeping traditional Medicare in place and competing side-by-side with private options so that seniors can choose the health care plan that works best for them. Significantly reduce costs without capping spending while preserving for seniors the choice of participating in traditional Medicare;
*Give states more flexibility to manage their Medicaid programs and prevent states from using so-called "bed taxes" to get more money from the federal government;
*Reform Social Security and gradually raise the retirement age so that today's workers can count on the program being solvent and able to pay benefits when they retire;
*Enact a more accurate measure of inflation which both raises revenues and reduces entitlement spending;
*Raise the debt ceiling by $1 trillion which could last about one year at the new levels of spending."

Would highly recommmend Garden Grocer, great service and they always follow up to make sure everything is perfect. Thanks again Garden Grocer.
Referred to you by two neighbors that used your service while staying at Disney. It was great. Ordering was simple. I was called the day before when one product was not available but you had a replacement to offer (which the kids ended up really liking as well). Nothing but good things to say and would reccomend your store for sure.
Garden Grocer made our trip to Disney so much less stressful. How nice to pull up to our rental home and have GG there, ready to deliver our food. Thanks!

My guess is that some drunk a*sholes knew he was a boxer and wanted to fight him. Trout being drunk didnt walk away and fought them. Drunk people always want to fight boxers to prove their machismo and the boxers simply walk away most of the time. Boxers have to avoid those types of situations.

Tire shredders play a very large role in tire recycling. Usually the first step to converting whole tires into a usable product or landfill material is to shred them. Tires are incredibly durable and resilient to destruction. For this reason, tire shredders tend to have more torque than garbage shredders or wood shredders. The most popular type of tire shredder is called a shear shredder. These are typically slow speed with two shafts of knives. Most of these machines are equipped with built in safeties so that if a foreign object falls into the machine the machine will reverse before serious damage is done to the knives or shafts. Any of these machines may be stationary units that are set in one place and hooked to three phase power or portable machines with engines or generators. Portables are always more expensive than stationary because of the extras needed to make them move and provide power.

The MacSaturn 62x40HT is the machine to use for mobile tire cleanups. It will shred 400 car tires an hour down to a 2" chip. This unit is hydraulic and is powered by a 360 hp Cummins diesel engine, and comes mounted on a triple axle trailer for easy moving from site to site. This system is set up with a 2 inch trommel screen and all re-circulating conveyors to make a complete 2" minus chip system. This Saturn 62x40HT is a clean machine that was rebuilt and has not been used but a few hours since the rebuild.
This SSI shredder has two 100 hp electric motors. It has an opening of 52 inches by 32 inches. The 2 inch knives will produce a primary shred out of car and passenger tires.

This unit will have new cleaning fingers and rails installed in it and have new bearings and seals. The machine will have two brand New SAI Hydraulic motors to power the shredder. We will be using a 400 —-> Read the Rest
This CM Chipper is a great machine for taking preshredded tires and taking them down to a marketable material. We have completely refurbished this machine, including installing new hardened rotors. The rotors are made out of a heat treated 4140 material, rather than the mild steel they are usually built with. We have done this so that when a knife comes off while the machine is in operation and you don't catch it immediately you shouldn't harm your knife seats near as easily. In addition this rotor has a multi-stack rotor design meaning it has 1.9, 1.8, and 1.7 knife —-> Read the Rest

Lawnmower torches Arbor Vitae on Portland Drive
The riding lawn mower driven by Norma Cannon overheated and made contact with dry arbor vitae owned by Lee and Norma Curtis, sending more than a dozen of the tightly-packed trees up in flames. The mower, visible at far right, was totaled. No one was injured; neighbors first kept the fire at bay with garden hoses and Westside and Hood River Fire Departments responded and doused the fire before it reached any structures. Westside Fire chief Jim Trammell, in blue shirt, directs firefighters. The video was taken by Capt. Dave Smith of Hood River Fire Department. Enlarge

The US administration should make public the intelligence that debunks 28 classified pages from a report on September 11 terrorist attacks on the United States, Senator Bill Nelson said in a letter to US President Barack Obama on Monday.
A group of families of people killed in the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks say 28 classified pages of a 2002 congressional report on the events could show Saudi Arabia lent official support to the terrorists. Here's some background.

President Barack Obama failed in his attempt to suppress interest about the remaining pages in the congressional report on the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, advocacy group 28 Pages founder Brian McGlinchey told Sputnik on Tuesday.
White House sides with Saudi Arabia over the families of 9/11 victims, despite mounting evidence that implicates the Saudi royal family with funding and directing the September 11, 2001, attacks.

We expose slave masters and people smugglers in suburban Britain.
South Africa's Julius Malema talks to Al Jazeera
Gregg Carlstrom | 04 Jul 2013 09:26 GMT | Politics, Middle East, Egypt
Cairo - The fireworks celebrating Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi's removal by the military are visible a few kilometres away, where thousands of his supporters are holding a sit-in, a protest they plan to continue until Morsi is reinstated.
Hours after his removal, the mood at the rally, outside a mosque in Cairo's Nasr City neighbourhood, was sombre and confused.
Supporters of Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood wondered how the man who last year became Egypt's first democratically-elected president could be ousted so ignominiously.
Fear hovered over the rally, too, with many Brotherhood members wondering if Morsi's removal would portend a wider crackdown on the once-banned group.
The army has encircled the site of the protest, blocking main roads with barbed wire and armoured vehicles; helicopters buzz overhead, often to jeers and curses from below. One man spat at a helicopter, dismissing its pilots as traitors.
Rumours were rife in the early hours of Thursday morning that the army would soon raid the camp and detain the protesters. One man brought up the memory of 1954, when then-president Gamal Abdel Nasser crushed the Brotherhood, jailing thousands of its members.
"What the army did, they have unleashed hell on Egypt," said Mahdi Asfar, an elderly religious scholar at the sit-in. "The Islamists will not be able to stand back, because we are not going back to jail."
Determination waning
Many of these protesters have been on the streets since Friday, when a coalition of pro-Morsi political groups organised a rally under the banner "legitimacy is a red line." The mood on Friday was defiant, with large crowds convinced that Morsi could survive nationwide anti-government protests that were scheduled for Sunday.
As the week wore on, and the scope of the protests became clear, the mood grew increasingly tense. Security checks increased; protesters warned of impending raids by "thugs."
Even on Wednesday, just hours before the army's deadline for Morsi to resolve the political crisis, there was still a sense of determination in the camp.
Leading members of the Brotherhood and their allies held a fiery press conference in which they demanded that the military back down. "We are the constitution, we are freedom, we are legitimacy, we are the revolution," said Essam el-Erian, the vice chairman of the Brotherhood's political wing, the Freedom and Justice Party.
Determination had morphed into exhaustion by early Thursday morning.
Those who were still awake seemed taken aback by the day's events, and blamed the overthrow on members of former President Hosni Mubarak's regime.
"The problems that people could see, like the fuel crisis, stopped a day or two ago. The stock market rose on the 30th of June by 5 percent. How is everything solved moments before he leaves? I believe it is due to Mubarak and the deep state," said Sharif Ahmed, a businessman.
One speaker railed against a group of prominent political figures, dubbing them thugs. Most of his targets were predictable - Hamdeen Sabbahi, for example, an opposition leader who recently has tried to align himself with the army.
He also singled out Ahmed el-Tayeb, the grand mufti of Al-Azhar University, the highest seat of Sunni learning in Egypt. Tayeb threw his support behind the coup, sitting in the audience while Defence Minister Abdel Fattah el-Sisi announced Morsi's ouster and then adding brief remarks of his own.
With most of the media's attention on the jubilant scenes in Tahrir Square and the presidential palace, many people at the sit-in said they felt ignored.
Journalists arrested
Their isolation was compounded by the shutdown of the Brotherhood's television channel, Misr 25, and several other religious channels; Brotherhood officials said journalists working for their channel were arrested. "They don't want people to see what is happening here," Ahmed said.
Morsi himself is under house arrest, according to top Brotherhood officials, and has no access to the media; he resorted to YouTube to release a brief message after his ouster was announced.
More than a dozen other members of the movement have been arrested as well, according to security officials, a speedy move that to many here highlighted the government's longstanding hostility towards the Brotherhood and other Islamist movements.
"Morsi's people have been arrested already. The top people of Mubarak, they're still out there, more than a year later," said Ismail Abdel Aziz, a doctor. "The security forces have been sleeping for all this time. And now suddenly they wake up?"

Outdoor LED Lights Drive $49,000 Annual Savings for Atlanta Lexus Dealer
When the new owners of Lexus of South Atlanta assumed operations in June 2011, they quickly pinpointed one of the first things they would change: the energy-guzzling outdoor lighting. Opting for an LED system, the dealership chose GE Evolve LED Area Lights, cutting energy costs $49,000 a year for the long life of the new system.
Lexus of South Atlanta contacted Georgia Power Company, which performed a comprehensive site analysis. Georgia Power suggested installation of 82 GE Evolve LED Area Lights on 55 poles, distributed to optimize the lighting levels for the facility and to use the existing poles and pole locations. The Georgia Power team suggested removal of the existing lighting system, consisting of 138 1,000-watt metal halide fixtures.
The new LED lighting was installed by December 2011. The LEDs cast a white light, which piques people's interest as they drive by the car lot at night. Aesthetics weren't the only noticeable difference. Whereas the old HID lighting consumed 596,160 kWhs of electricity a year, the new GE Evolve LED system draws a total of 77,289 kWhs, a nearly 87-percent reduction in electricity use. Lexus of South Atlanta will now spend about $49,000 less for outdoor lighting each year.

In the news business, you sometimes
have to shoot a lot of documents in connection
with a story, and with the Sachtler
you could just tilt the camera down for
the shot and then let go of the handle. The
camera would stay exactly where you
aimed it. You didn't have to lock it down;
it stayed where you wanted it. The old
heads we'd been using would never stay
put in such a situation.
Of course, camera balance isn't important
just for shooting documents. In situations
when the press is kept a half-mile
or so away from covering a plane crash
or other disaster involving emergency response
crews, we'd have to be zoomed all
the way in with a 2X extender, which is an
invitation for shaky images—something
noone really wants to see on the evening
As we were one-man-bands, size and
weight were prime factors in our selection
of camera support equipment too,
At the time, I wasn't 20 anymore, nor was
anyone else in the department. And we
were getting smaller news cars, so the
tripod and head had to fit in the new vehicles.
We also had another major concern—
we were buying 20 tripods, which was
just enough for all of our camera crews.
There was no provision then for spares.
If one of the heads developed problems,
it wouldn't be something that our station
maintenance people could repair. Most
camera heads are constructed in such a
way that it takes a specialist to fix them
when they malfunction., so manufacturer
support was also an important consideration.
We needed someone who was going
to be there to loan us a head while
ours was being repaired.
In our evaluation, we discovered that
Sachtler had really good service, the best
movement of any head, and that the heads
were small and light. We initially purchased
some 3+3s and when it came time
for a complete re-outfit, we purchased 20
Sachtler 7+7s.
A few years later, I left the station to
form my own company and bought a Cine
7+7 HD head for my own use. I still do
a lot of one-man-band shoots, so the size
and weight of the tripod system are just
as much a factor as they were in my news
coverage days.
Many of the other challenges are the
same too, such as holding a steady shot
with a lens zoomed all the way out. This Sachtler
head is rock steady and provides me
with a large payload range—4-48 pounds—
and has 16 stages of counterbalance.
For the times when I'm using a camera
package that's greater than my head
will accommodate, I rent a larger Sachtler
head, often with a dual pan handles, so
I can use a studio setup with zoom and
focus controls. In fact, if I'm on a shoot
where I'm using the client's camera package
and they don't supply a Sachtler head,
I'll make sure to bring my own along.
Bill Fenster is the owner of Bill Fenster
Productions and has been involved
in news coverage, documentaries, and
commercial features for more than two
decades. He may be contacted at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Former England defender Sol Campbell announced his retirement from football on Wednesday, ending a stellar 19-year career that was marked by his acrimonious switch from Tottenham to fierce north London rivals Arsenal.The 37-year-old Campbell - a powerful, ball-playing center-back who played 73 times for his country - called time on his career having failed to find a club following his release from Newcastle at the end of last season."It's hard to let go when you have been a top sportsman for a long, long time,'' Campbell said. "To say that I am not going to play professional football again is difficult because I've had a long time at the top.''Campbell made one of the most controversial moves in the history of English football when he left Tottenham - where he was captain - after 10 years to join Arsenal in 2001, provoking a deluge of criticism from angry Spurs fans.Campbell won two league titles and two FA Cups in that first stint with Arsenal, when he was part of the "Invincibles"' team that went through the 2003-04 season unbeaten in the league.He rejoined Arsenal on loan for half a season in 2010, and also played for Portsmouth and Notts County.Campbell, who played at three World Cups and three European Championships, went through his career without ever moving for a transfer fee.

The City and County of Honolulu, HI, have awarded a $12,500 contract to Eko Painting and Concrete Restoration of Honolulu to repair and repaint the city's Sky Gate sculpture.
The structure is located on the lawn between the city's municipal building and the Mission Memorial Auditorium.
Commissioned by the city and county in 1977, the Sky Gate was created by the artist Isamu Noguchi who is known for his Red Cube in New York City.
A Perfect Circle
Though initially criticized as a "flagrant example of overspending by government officials," Sky Gate has recently attracted the attention of astrological enthusiasts, according to Bing Attractions.
Commissioned in 1977, Sky Gate is one of Honolulu's most distinctive pieces of public art.
The only place in the U.S. where the sun will pass directly overhead during what is called a "Lahaina Noon," the organic shaped sculpture casts a perfectly shaped circular shadow that fits neatly into the concrete base.
According to Honolulu Magazine, this celestial event occurs only twice a year. Hawaii is the only state to experience Lahaina Noon.
Scope of Work
The project involves painting the entire sculpture to the concrete footings, including the metal surface areas, nuts, bolts and flanges. The contractor will power-wash all surfaces; treat those contaminated with mildew; and remove all scaling, rust dirt and debris.
All surfaces treated for rust removal will be coated with an epoxy-based sealer and spot-coated with epoxy. The entire structure will then be coated with a base coat of epoxy, an intermediate coat of aliphatic urethane enamel, and a finish coat of clear aliphatic urethane.
About the Contractor
Established in 1993, Eko Painting and Concrete Restoration performs commercial and residential painting, concrete restoration, drywall repair, lead paint removal, and other services. The company also applies penetrating sealers and a variety of coatings and surface treatments.
Reported by Paint BidTracker, a construction reporting service devoted to identifying contracting opportunities for the coatings community.
