Real GDP Growth in the First Quarter Improved to 0.8 Percent, but Still a Disappointing Start to Year27 May 2016 | 5:56 amThe Bureau of Economic Analysis said that the U.S. economy grew by 0.8 percent in the first quarter of 2016, up from the prior estimate of 0.5 percent. The revision stemmed from better fixed investment, inventories and net exports data. Nonetheless, it is clear that the economy remained challenged, with the improvements in these categories reducing the pace to which each was a drag on real GDP growth. Overall, U.S. economic growth has been disappointing through the first three months of 2016, extending the sluggishness seen at the end of 2015. Indeed, the underlying story remained the same as noted in the prior release. Consumers and businesses were cautious in the first quarter, dampening real GDP growth,...
Kansas City Fed: Manufacturing Activity Continued to Decline in May26 May 2016 | 9:42 amThe Kansas City Federal Reserve Bank said that manufacturing activity continued to decline in May, contracting for the 15th straight month. The Fed district continued to grapple with weaknesses in the agricultural and energy markets, with the strong dollar also challenging international demand. New orders (down from -2 to -3), production (down from -8 to -11), shipments (unchanged at -6), exports (down from -4 to -8), employment (down from -12 to -13) and the average employee workweek (down from -9 to -15) were all solidly in negative territory once again. Interestingly, respondents to this month's survey were broken down into equally-divided groups, with one-third experiencing higher sales, one-third...
Strong Aircraft Sales Pushed New Durable Goods Orders Sharply Higher in April26 May 2016 | 8:38 amThe Census Bureau said that new durable goods orders increased 3.4 percent in April, extending the 1.9 percent gain seen in March. Sales of new durable goods orders rose from $228.3 billion in March to $235.9 billion in April. Demand have risen in three of the four months so far in 2016, providing some encouragement for a sector that has experienced its share of softness over the past year. On a year-over-year basis, sales have risen from $231.5 billion in April 2015, an increase of 1.9 percent. Yet, much of that gain came from transportation equipment, particularly aircraft sales. Excluding transportation, new orders for durable goods increased by just 0.4 percent, and over the past 12 months, that figure...
WRDA Progress Continues Ahead of Deadline: Manufacturers Support the Momentum24 May 2016 | 1:25 pmThe House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee recently released H.R. 5303, the Water Resources and Development act of 2016.

The bill also aims to ensure continued investment in harbors and includes a provision that ensures the ad valorem duties collected on imports going into the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund (HMTF) would be fully utilized for maintenance of ports and harbors beginning in 2027, essentially creating a firewall to protect funds. Most...
Permit Traps – Proceed at Your Own Risk23 May 2016 | 12:59 pmGovernment decisions derailing permits for infrastructure projects raise serious questions about future access and the cost of energy in this country. Affordable energy supplies are critical to the viability and competitiveness of U.S. manufacturers, but equally important is the ability to obtain a wide variety of other permits to carry on routine manufacturing operations. After successfully navigating federal, state and local government requirements, as well as opposition from national environmental groups during the permit approval process, a company is authorized to do business as long as it follows the permit. When a Clean Water Act permit is approved and the individual is in compliance, the Act...

What These Nurses Had to Say About "Lean Hospitals"; Free Gift with Pre-Order27 May 2016 | 10:10 amI recently learned that a company called Anderson Continuing Education offers continuing education (CE) credits for nurses related to my book Lean Hospitals. See their page for my book. I am still trying to learn more, but they will sell the book or, if you already own the book, you can just buy a quiz (that can be mailed to you or delivered online). One nurse I knew was excited because "21.5 contact hours for 30 bucks is a steal!" I haven't seen the quiz yet, so I can't fully endorse it, but I'll update this post after I see it. Anderson says, on their page: "You can't learn Lean from a book, but it's a good place to start." I fully agree with that. A book can create awareness and some knowledge, but...

#TBT: Toyota Helps Another Food Bank26 May 2016 | 3:00 amBack in 2013, I blogged about Toyota helping the NYC Food Bank… not helping as in giving money, but helping as in sharing their expertise with the Toyota Production System. My post: Video: Toyota Helps a NYC Food Bank & Hurricane Sandy Victims There was another post from 2010 where Toyota helped a food bank serve more meals at Thanksgiving: Video of Toyota's Thanksgiving Kaizen Be sure to check out both videos (they are at the bottom of this post, as well). As you might know, Toyota is building a new North American headquarters site in Plano, Texas (about 30 minutes away from me here in the DFW area). This article has some of the details: Toyota says philanthropy is at its core, and Plano is seeing it in...
Mr. Burns From the Simpsons is, No Surprise, a Safety Hypocrite25 May 2016 | 3:00 amWe can probably all use a mid-week chuckle… I used to be a die hard fan of The Simpsons. I've drifted away from watching the show over time, but a friend recommended that I was the season finale. The full episode is embedded below (and probably can only be seen in the U.S., sorry). My favorite part started about 2:00 into the video. Homer is trying to get out the door to go home and C. Montgomery Burns stops him. "Simpson… hold up one end of this poster." Ha, a cheesy safety poster for the nuclear plant. The type of thing that W. Edwards Deming would have railed again… posters and slogans that don't reflect reality. Does the Springfield Nuclear Plant have a track record of putting safety first? Anyone who...
Stuff I'm Reading May 2016: Bad Patient Experiences, Bad Workplaces & Burnout, Lean Sigma in the VA24 May 2016 | 3:00 amAs is often the case, I have too many open browser tabs full of articles that I was going to potentially blog about. This slows down my Mac (thanks, Chrome!). So, it's time for me to clear out my backlog and a little mental overhead… to share some articles I've been reading with some quick notes, instead of doing full blog posts. Well, I'll get my backlog down a little. Why Giant Hospital Systems Might Be Getting it Wrong Michelle Chaffee writes about her poor experience and delayed care at a fancy-looking, high-tech hospital system. There's no mention of Lean, but I'd point out that a truly Lean organization intimately understands the needs of the customer (the patient) and prevents the types of...

The Simple Leader!16 May 2016 | 9:21 amA few years ago I starting playing around with a book concept that described several personal and professional leadership methods and habits I had developed over my three decade career. I collected ideas, supporting information, and would occasionally – often on long plane trips – take a stab at writing a section or two. I even put those up on LeanPub for folks to review and comment. For many reasons I never made much headway. There was always something a bit more pressing, or seemingly more manageable, than tackling that behemoth of a project. I enjoy writing, and I felt I had something important to share, but it was never THE priority. In the meantime the project occupied valuable space in my brain. As...
A Break to Reflect and Unlearn13 Apr 2016 | 8:33 amOver the past few years I've been working hard on cultivating positive habits. New habits can be powerful. But habits can also create barriers that limit our perspective, which can hinder kaizen, creativity, and even our knowledge of ourselves. The proverbial "rut," and we've all been there at times in our lives. Sometimes we just need a break to re-center, recalibrate, recharge, or readjust your horizons. In the Zen world, this is datsuzoku, a break from the routine. Datsuzoku can be as simple as getting a good night's sleep or as common as taking a week of vacation. It is also a great time for reflection. I have a fairly standardized reflection routine, hansei, that includes a daily...
The Other Flow of Csíkszentmihályi11 Mar 2016 | 10:04 amThose of us in the Lean world are accustomed to discussing "flow" – where work is performed in an even manner to reduce mura. Activities are synchronized, layouts are optimized, resources are available exactly where and when they are needed, and the pace is set by true demand. The operation just hums along creating value for the customer. Well, "just" is a bit of a misnomer as we know how difficult achieving flow can be. I remember being introduced to the work of Mihaly Csíkszentmihályi decades ago in a psychology class, and have recently become reacquainted with him while researching motivation and productivity. Csíkszentmihályi, a psychologist of Hungarian decent and a professor at Claremont, has also...
The Liberating Lessons of Less7 Feb 2016 | 4:44 pmMy twenty plus year Lean journey has changed my life in many ways, perhaps none as significant as a creating a pervasive recognition of and disdain for waste. Coupled with respect for people, this has changed my career, leadership style, and personal life. Observing waste has led to a life of increasing minimalism, which isn't necessarily a bare bones existence but one where every activity and object creates value or joy. Let's take a look at some specific areas of impact. In the home and office: We've all seen the photo of Steve Jobs in his extreme minimalist living room. I've long been 5S-ing my garage, desk, and so forth. Of course I should be asking myself why I have to do it multiple times – somehow...
Explore Out of the Box1 Jan 2016 | 8:30 amUnless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow. – Ralph Emerson It's that arbitrary time of the year when many folks reflect on the past and set goals for the coming year. I enjoy reading how other people in the Lean world approach this activity as planning, hoshin, and reflection, hansei, are core components of Lean. Karen Martin just went into hers with some nice detail, and I especially like the ritualistic aspect of her process. Matt May has described his in the past as well, with a nod to Seth Godin's "shopping list" concept. I have a similar process that I've alluded to in a few previous posts. Each year toward the end of December my wife and I take...

Why "Smart" Manufacturing Will Grow in 201626 May 2016 | 1:13 pmFactories are typically thought of as dark places with people standing on an assembly line working side by side with machines, doing the same thing over and over again. But, that "vision" of the traditional factory has changed thanks largely to the influx of technological advances in how factories operate. Technology driven factories are cropping up all around the globe in both established and developing countries. Many countries are recognizing the opportunity for change and investing heavily by offering grants and other benefits to help to implement these technology changes. The EU for example is investing almost 2 Billion Euros into their private/public partnership "Factories of the Future" to...
How the Industrial Internet of Things is Changing the Electrical Industry19 May 2016 | 9:38 amAutomation is an inevitable part of many industries, and the logical next step is automated systems that essentially communicate with one another. It's commonly known as the Internet of Things (IoT) and it is transforming how businesses operate. It's an exciting trend and one that has accelerated dramatically in just the last few years. Connectivity is better, programming is smarter, and the manufacturing tasks that stand to benefit are now beginning to embrace the change. The electrical industry is one that is ideal for adopting new technologies that increase efficiency. At virtually every level, processes can be improved with the help of intercommunicating systems and devices. What Is the Industrial...
Is Data the New King of Manufacturing Technology?12 May 2016 | 2:31 pmThere's an old saying, "The tail wags the dog." It refers to any situation where a secondary offshoot of the main operation ends up taking control. Broadly, it can mean a shifting of the power base: the servant becomes the master. I think we may be looking at exactly this scenario in the world of manufacturing technology. A major disruption is underway, and it's all about the data. Or to be more accurate, it's about what that data can tell decision-makers about quality, reliability, production processes, supply chains, materials, product design, customer demand—virtually everything a manufacturer cares about! The ramifications will reach all the way from the far corner of the remotest shop floor...
9 Ways to Gain Efficiency in Warehouse Management3 May 2016 | 10:50 amAs with most businesses, efficiency can make the difference between profit and loss. In warehouse management, this is particularly true. The most resourceful warehouse operators use some or all of these techniques to stay ahead of the competition. 1. Smart Layout Successful warehouse operators have a carefully thought out plan for storage. It makes sense to store the most commonly picked items near the front of the area and items that are often sold together near one another. To ensure maximum utilization of available space, store items of a similar size and shape on the same racks. This prevents misplacing small items that slip behind large cartons, and allows the most consistent use of vertical...
What Is Defining the Future of Aerospace Technology?28 Apr 2016 | 9:33 amInnovation has always been the cornerstone of the aerospace industry, and that's not likely to change anytime soon. Like any industry, aerospace faces its share of challenges. But since aerospace touches so many other industries, including defense and passenger aviation, there should never be a shortage of new technologies to keep the industry thriving. Here are a few things driving new aerospace technology. The Future of Passenger Aircraft At a glance, the passenger airplane has undergone very few changes over the past few decades. Perhaps aircraft emissions, regulations, and standards, along with the cost of fuel, will change this, causing a need for new aerospace technology. It's already happening in the...

Dealt a Screwball Management Directive? Shield Your Techs26 May 2016 | 2:00 amEditor's note: Donald B. Stephens is a 30-year senior customer service engineer with the Xerox Corporation. As he knows well, even the best-intentioned management strategies can have negative aspects. Here, Stephens explains why service managers can get more out of their techs by serving as a buffer to corporate programs that come down the pike — especially those created without the service department's needs in mind. Anyone who has been employed by a company that is larger than a mom-and-pop business has experienced a silly management program. They often add little or no value to the service-end of the business because they weren't really designed with service in mind, but we get saddled with them...
ThyssenKrupp Elevator Taps the IoT to Raise Customer Satisfaction24 May 2016 | 2:00 amEditor's note: A version of this article first appeared on Field Technologies Online and is adapted here with permission.

Leading field service organizations across the globe are turning to IoT technology to truly transform the way they do business. IoT is enabling these organizations to shift their service model from reactive to proactive — and even predictive. This is of utmost importance with the growing focus on customer experience and satisfaction. The largest producer of elevators in the...
Startup Otto Aims to Bring Self-Driving Trucks to U.S. Highways20 May 2016 | 2:00 amTech heavyweights like Google, Apple and Uber are betting big on the future of driverless cars, but that reality may be years down the road. Coming sooner to a highway near you? Fleets of self-driving trucks. That's the premise behind the new startup Otto, founded by ex-Googlers Anthony Levandowski and Lior Ron. At Google, Levandowski led the self-driving car initiative while Ron is a veteran of Google Maps and Motorola. Unlike Daimler, which last year announced plans for a new autonomous big rig, the company isn't looking to reinvent the semi — instead it's looking to retrofit existing trucks made since 2013. Its $30,000 retrofit kit will allow trucks to drive themselves on the highway, safely staying...
3 Hacks to Improve Your Service Fleet's Ergonomics (and Economics)17 May 2016 | 2:00 amDislocated shoulder, herniated disc, torn meniscus in the knee — these are just a few examples of injuries that are caused overexertion and repetitive motion. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) alone account for 33 percent of all worker injury cases in the U.S., and the service sector is among the top three at-risk occupations, accounting for 25 percent of all work-related MSDs. Transportation comes in second at 20 percent. When service techs strain to reach a ladder on top of the van or lift heavy objects from awkward angles, they increase their risk of a debilitating injury. And depending on the size of your company, the costs incurred from just a single...
Why Your Techs Complain—and Why That's a Good Thing13 May 2016 | 2:00 amEditor's note: Donald B. Stephens is a 30-year senior customer service engineer with the Xerox Corporation. Below, he explains what service managers can learn from their field employees' grumblings. Stephens will be a featured speaker at Field Service Fall (Sept. 12-14, 2016 in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.) about how to keep technicians engaged through new technology advances. If you've been a field service manager for any length of time, it won't be a revelation that service techs have occasion to complain. In my more than 30-year career as a service rep, I've witnessed more than a few managers slam their fists on the table out of frustration because their techs were whining about a new process, a company...

What Is the Problem with Counterfeit Bearings?24 May 2016 | 2:55 amCounterfeiting is a problem that affects many manufacturers around the world. Typically, any counterfeit item is going to be of lower quality because it is made of lower quality components and manufactured to lower standards. The reason counterfeit items are made is that they are a cheap imitation, yet they appear as if they are a well-known brand. In fact, some of the counterfeits look more like the real item than the actual item itself. Although counterfeiting may be a problem that affects many items, something that you should be concerned about is counterfeit bearings. This is becoming an increasing problem, and if you are paying for counterfeit bearings, you are getting cheated. Quite simply, you are...
Electrical Inspector Red Flag You? These May be the Reasons19 May 2016 | 2:55 amAlthough there are many things to consider when installing an electrical system, one of the most important things to consider is the electrical service. Anytime you have a location that is powered through an electrical utility; it will have such a service. It is sometimes referred to as an electrical service panel, service panel, breaker box or electrical center. It is the box that holds the circuit breakers and is wired to distribute power throughout the facility. The electrical service is also one of the most common areas to be red tagged by the inspector. In many cases, it would be possible to avoid having the inspector red-tag the installation by just looking for some common issues. Here are a few are...
The Efficiency of a New vs. Repaired Electric Motor17 May 2016 | 2:55 amAlthough you may make every effort to ensure that a motor has a long life, there will come a time when it eventually needs to be repaired or will need to be replaced. At this point, one common question that is going to be asked is in regards to the benefits of repairing the motor versus replacing it with a new one. Of course, the primary benefit to be considered is cost, but the bottom line may be somewhat deceiving. Many facilities managers will immediately consider the financial savings of repairing a failed motor but the savings may only be during the initial purchase. When you consider all of the factors involved, is it truly more cost-effective to repair a motor? That depends on upon the efficiency of...

Running Out of Room? Consider a Mezzanine27 May 2016 | 3:37 pmIf you are a tenant of an older warehouse or manufacturing facility, chances are you could have unused space that isn't found in newer buildings. A mezzanine can be a great way to increase square footage without having to relocate or build out. They are fairly flexible in the shape they are arranged in and can fit with the layout of your workspace. A mezzanine is a free-standing structure with an elevated platform that fits above your current setup. You will still maintain most of your ground-level operations, other than adding support columns. But in most cases it doubles your usable square footage. You might need more room for people instead of product. Human resources, sales staff, and management could...

What Do Your Warehouse Workers Value Most?6 May 2016 | 10:38 amWhen it comes to worker retention, employers need to know what is most important to their employees. Surveys of hourly warehouse workers have concluded that the number one employment issue is pay. Aside from layoffs, the top reason workers left their jobs was because they found higher paying jobs elsewhere. According to the survey, job security and benefits ranked 2nd and 3rd, respectively. Paid time off was much further down the list, ranked 8th, and recognition came in last. Despite decreasing unemployment rates over the past two years, workers' average pay has only increased 1.2%, and over half of those surveyed said they would switch to a less desirable shift for a raise of $1 or less per hour....

Hardware Startup of the Week: KAISR Original4 May 2016 | 11:24 amA hardware startup doesn't need to change the world to be highly successful – and it doesn't even need to be particularly complicated. In fact, sometimes the simple ideas are the best ones. Few companies demonstrate this better than Amsterdam-based KAISR Original, creators of the same-named 'KAISR' inflatable air lounger.

Easy, Rider: I Didn't See You17 May 2016 | 5:14 amIt's Motorcycle Awareness Month � � � � � � � � � � May might be the month for flowers, but it's also the month motorcycle enthusiasts wait for all year. Warmer weather means motorcycles are out of winter storage (at least in the colder states), tuned up, and back on the roads for another riding season. That's also why May is Motorcycle Awareness Month. As motorcycle riders hit the roads in spring, vehicle drivers often aren't alert to them. Keeping bikers safe and drivers alert is the goal of the national organization for the Alliance of Bikers Aimed Toward Education, or ABATE. This 38-year-old organization operates throughout the U.S., with each state in charge of its own program. Stan Oakes,...
From Gas Guzzlers to Tree Huggers: Earth Day 201620 Apr 2016 | 1:37 pmAwareness of the environment and the need to protect it has come a long way since the first Earth Day was celebrated 46 years ago on April 22, 1970. How It All Began Earth Day was the brainchild of Gaylord Nelson, a then-U.S. senator from Wisconsin. In 1969 he witnessed the severe damage of a massive oil spill in Santa Barbara, California. He was still thinking about the 1962 Rachel Carson New York Times bestseller Silent Spring, which detailed the link between pollution and public health and was an eye-opener for many Americans on the seriousness of growing environmental dangers. The oil spill made the issue even more real. Fast forward to 1970. Most American cars were big V8 sedans that guzzled leaded...

Basically, there are three types of distractions: Visual – Taking your eyes off the road Manual – Taking your hands off the wheel Cognitive – Taking your mind off driving Distracted driving encompasses...
(Young) Women in MFG: Journey To A Future of Engineering16 Mar 2016 | 7:30 amMath and science are strong subjects for me, so I thought engineering would be a great career. In my junior year of high school, I took the Young Engineers Program (YEP) that Kennametal generously offered at its facility near my school in Latrobe, PA. YEP classes met weekly at Kennametal, where we learned many of the skills needed to be an engineer. Students were separated into groups based on different skills that each team member had. I was the drafter of my team. Each team had to research, build, and make a prototype product that passed three "gates" Kennametal uses in their new product development process. That same semester, I attended a career fair at my local community college (Westmoreland...

Installing Industrial Floors in Meat Plants20 May 2016 | 11:42 amIndustrial Floors in Cold Facilities Although you can't tell from the picture, that room is actually 45 degrees F. And according to most tech sheets, it's recommended that most epoxies be installed in 65 degrees or warmer. So, when this meat and seafood processing plant called us about their desire to upgrade their floors, it was obvious that this project would require some additional project management and solutions. The room pictured above has a thin film coating. This room is the shipping area, where after the meat gets packaged, it is transferred by fork lifts, onto shipping vessels to be delivered to their destination. And the fork lifts are what's causing this floor to fail. The customer is...
Clear Epoxy Coatings Installed by PennCoat, Inc.18 May 2016 | 1:01 pmClear Epoxy Coatings For High-Traffic Areas Pigmented epoxy floors look great. They add color, theme, and additional aesthetic features to any room. However, one unforeseen caveat is that pigmented floors can show wear and tear. Many customers desire a pigmented floor in hi-traffic areas. The issue with that is that all that traffic, from fork-lifts, to pallet jacks, to steel toe boots, to office chairs, can create scratch marks, dirt trails, and other markings that easily contrast with a solid-color floor. The beauty with a clear floor, is that is offers the same appearance as a concrete floor, but comes with the protection of epoxy. I was approached by a facility that had an exposed concrete...
Industrial Painting Challenges in Manufacturing Areas10 May 2016 | 7:31 amIndustrial Painting Challenges in Manufacturing Areas Often, industrial areas have operational equipment and machinery built into the room. It's impossible to move the equipment, making the project almost seem impossible to complete. But, when food or pharmaceutical plants have corroded ceilings with flaking paint, it's no longer allowed to be an impossible project. So when a food facility let us know about their corroded ceiling with flaking paint and rust, it was obvious they were in dire need to find a solution. So what we needed to do, was go into the plant, wash the corroded areas to remove rust and loose paint, and then apply a rust-inhibitive elastomeric paint system. But before we could do...
Industrial Painting Steel in Corrosive Environments – PennCoat, Inc22 Apr 2016 | 11:21 amIndustrial Painting Steel in Corrosive Environments – PennCoat, Inc. When you provide industrial painting services, it's common to see a lot of corroded steel. Steel that's exposed to natural environments, such as snow, rain, hail, UV rays, high and low temps contribute to the deterioration of steel. So when looking at steel frames and structures, it's important to consider coatings that will help prevent this corrosion. And one of the best methods it to apply a moisture cured urethane primer. I recently ventured onto the rooftops of a food manufacturing facility in Hazleton, Pennsylvania. The site owner's request was to paint all of the corroded steel. And what he had to show me was everything a...
PennCoat uses rust inhibiting paint for Industrial Painting15 Apr 2016 | 7:35 amRust Inhibiting Paint Rust-inhibiting paint for steel surfaces forms a protective coating designed to keep rust from spreading. It also protects fresh surfaces from ever experiencing corrosion in the first place. It can be laid on nearly any metal surface with the proper preparation, and is non-porous upon hardening which can prevent further damage from occurring. Common uses include: Rust inhibiting paint comes highly recommended for use on any metal surface which might be at risk of corroding. It is also recommended for painting over surfaces which have already begun to experience oxidation in order to keep it from spreading further. It mechanically seals out all air, rather than attempting to use...

FDA to Reevaluate the Definition of "Healthy"19 May 2016 | 7:00 amDue to evolving nutrition research and a citizen petition filed by KIND LLC, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has decided it's a good time to reevaluate its definition of the term "healthy". The agency plans to gather public comment on use of the term "healthy," along with other nutrient content claims, in the near future. The decision was announced as part of a statement FDA published last week regarding KIND LLC's use of the term "healthy" on its food labeling. FDA issued a warning letter to KIND in March 2015 due to KIND's use of the term "healthy" on products that did not meet FDA's criteria for labeling products as such. After evaluation of KIND's corresponding corrective actions, FDA...

Almost £15,000 raised for Cure Leukaemia
The twelve successful bidders from the Club Legends Cup fan auctions have been contacted to inform them they will be lining up with their heroes at Birmingham's LG Arena on Saturday July 12th this year.
Hundreds of fans submitted their bids to represent Aston Villa, Birmingham City, West Bromwich Albion, Wolves, Coventry City and Walsall in the unique indoor football tournament taking place the day before the FIFA World Cup Final.
The successful bids have raised nearly £15,000 for Midlands blood cancer charity Cure Leukaemia.
The lucky winners of the Wolves auction will play alongside the team of former players set to include Matt Murray, Rob Edwards, Jody Craddock and Ade Akinbiyi.
They will also receive VIP treatment with an invitation to the exclusive after party with the players and an appearance in the official event programme amongst the additional benefits on July 12th.
Chief Executive of Cure Leukaemia James McLaughlin said: "We are incredibly grateful for the generosity shown by football fans around the region and the money raised from these auctions will be worth £150,000 in potentially life-saving drugs.
"We know the fans will have an unforgettable experience safe in the knowledge their donation will directly help save the lives of leukaemia patients around the Midlands."
Murray, set to step between the sticks in Wolves colours once again, added: "I am very excited about being involved in this tournament.
"Fans always say that they can do better so this is perfect opportunity for them to show us in person!
"I think it will be a memorable tournament for everyone involved and hopefully we will raise a huge amount of money for a great charity in the process.
"I look forward to lining up with some of my old team mates as well and you can be sure that we will want to win!"
Tickets are on sale for the event priced at £10 for Adults and £2 for U-16s (plus booking fees) and can be purchased here: http://www.lgarena.co.uk/whatson/club-legends-cup/ or by calling 0844 338
All money raised from the day goes to Midlands blood cancer charity Cure Leukaemia. http://www.cureleukaemia.co.uk
Prior to the Club Legends Cup will be the FootieBugs Little Legends Cup featuring six regional kids teams and a Ladies Legends match between two top Midlands sides.
Away from the football there will be a host of fun activities around the concourse areas of the LG Arena making it a great day out for the whole family.

Simply Fantastic
Considering I have a similar situation to yours (girlfriend who is always to make me feel better about myself no matter what), this hit me deep. The symbolism behind all of it is breathtaking to say the least. I am not afraid to say part of my wanted to cry when it was over.
Considering the other factors, the animation was smooth and just plain adorable, the music was done astonishingly well for this kind of project, and when all of it was put together, the job was accomplished flawlessly. Seeing and you've probably just made one of my new top 10 flashes on Newgrounds, I don't need to remind you what you got out of me. Keep up the fantastic work~ :D
Easily the best entry you've submitted to TOFA to date, Dave.
Adorable, meaningful, the music works spectacularly, and it doesn't drag in the least.
I'd be really proud of this one if I were you, but I know you already are. :3
Good luck in the finals, Dave!
Sweet movie.
You forgot to finish the phrase though. I'll love you forever just the way you are unless you get fat then I'll dump you. Otherwise great movie.

"It [the State] has taken on a vast mass of new duties and responsibilities; it has spread out its powers until they penetrate to every act of the citizen, however secret; it has begun to throw around its operations the high dignity and impeccability of a State religion; its agents become a separate and superior caste, with authority to bind and loose, and their thumbs in every pot. But it still remains, as it was in the beginning, the common enemy of all well-disposed, industrious and decent men." ~ H.L. Mencken

Then, when the Fed's fire hoses started spraying an elephant soup of liquidity injections in every direction and its balance sheet grew by $1.3 trillion in just thirteen weeks compared to $850 billion during its first ninety-four years, I became convinced that the Fed was flying by the seat of its pants, making it up as it went along.
