The Katy Cajun Invasion comes rushing in Friday, May 16 through Sunday, May 18, 2014 at Katy Mills, 5000 Katy Mills Circle in Katy, Texas. The festival is at the north end, by Bass Pro Shop. If you love great Country, Zydeco, Blues and Rock music, fresh steaming crawfish, shrimp, alligator and more (spiced right and priced right) while supporting a great cause and reveling in the Bayou kind of crazy fun, this celebration is the place to be. Laissez les bons temps rouler, ya'll.
The attack begins at 11:00 AM on Friday, the 16th - with free admission until 3:00 PM on Friday - and runs the whole weekend. Before we have you drooling over the delightfully Cajun/Texan fare (the succulent, boiled crawfish, crabs, shrimp, and fried alligator by Louisiana's renowned Crazy Alan of the Swamp Shack, to rich and spicy Cajun dishes such as étouffée, boudin, and jambalaya, to Texas BBQ.) Drooling, already? Nevertheless, your ears are begging for that soul-feeding mix of music as versatile as the food!
The delicious line up of artists and bands combining Texas Country with Louisiana Zydeco and Brass Bands, from great local talent to national headline acts, bring the flavors of everything from Country to Rock and to Zydeco:
Great White - The band's 12th studio album, "Elation" thrives on Great White's signature grit and blues-hued sound. Best known for the 1989 smash "Once Bitten, Twice Shy," Great White's worldwide sales are approaching 10 million.
Doug Stone - Doug debuted in 1990 with the single, "I'd Be Better Off (In a Pine Box)," the first release from his 1990 self-titled debuted album for Epic Records. The single reached number 4 on the charts. His first number one single, "In a Different Light," was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Country Song. Stone has charted twenty-two singles on Hot Country Songs and eleven more Top Ten singles. Stone made his acting debut in the 1995 film "Gordy."
Van Wilks - In his third decade as a veteran of the world-famous Austin music scene, Van Wilks has long been hailed as one of the Austin, Texas' master players. With compelling, hard-edged, bluesy rock, his talent as a guitarist and bandleader is consistent praised with a string of honors. Voted by Austin music fans into the Austin Chronicle's "Texas Music Hall of Fame," Van stands alongside the state's most legendary musical talents. Blues roots to the cutting edge, with funk, hard rock and melodic undertones. His music prompted England's taste making "Kerrang!" to name Van Wilks' Mercury Records release, "Bombay Tears" as "one of my all time faves," declaring it "a masterpiece."
Jason Cassidy - Keeping it "real" and steeped in the outlaw legend of the late, great Waylon Jennings, Jason Cassidy is dedicated to the neo-traditionalist movement and its outlaw ways. Jason's ability to capture, in songwriting, his own life experiences, is captivating. His sincerity and honest telling of trials, tribulations, heartaches and blessings and masterful delivery of song, has endeared him to a fast growing fan base. Cassidy plays "real" country music reminiscent of George Strait, Merle Haggard, and George Jones. The latest Top 10 is an indication that Cassidy's song, "Blame it On Waylon" (written by Josh Thompson, Rhett Akins,)shows even more proof of his steadfast roots and love for traditional outlaw Country music. Jason is "that" Country music artist to watch, because he's definitely headed for the top.
Kimberly Caldwell - (Katy native from American Idol) For Kimberly Caldwell, it's been full-speed ahead since she first stepped on the stage at 5 years old. At age 11, she won Ed McMahon's Star Search 5 times holding the record for most number of wins for a Junior Vocalist. Until she was 15 years old, Kimberly performed two shows a day, 6 days a week as a featured performer in Country Tonite in Branson, MO.

She steadily continues to entertain audiences nationwide and traveled overseas to perform for the grand opening of Singapore's Universal Studios with Paula Abdul and then to Vietnam to open for Taio Cruz for Soundfest's 60,000 fans.
Sheila Marshall - Sheila Marshall's alluring, bluesy-soul, Texas-tinged country rock skyrocketed her from a Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo performer to one of the top 10 finalist on TV's "Nashville Star" talent show, singing with Willie Nelson and Rodney Crowell. She's had three singles rank on the Texas Music Chart — and live audiences from Alaska to Kuwait.
Her recently released EP, Sheila Marshall, and its first single, "Can't Let Go," is reaching even more fans. This Texas girl grew up in the East Texas town of Nacogdoches, attended Stephen F. Austin State University and fronted a rock band. Her love of Hank Williams, Willie Nelson and Patsy Cline merged with new-to-her artists such as Led Zeppelin and the Band. Playing the Houston Rodeo and other high-profile sporting events built her fan base and her acoustic EP, Beautiful For Situation, earned her a national Budweiser sponsorship.
Justin Van Sant - The strong baritone vocals of Lone Star native, Justin Van Sant, creates an infectiously upbeat vocal style and masterfully delivered songs has established him as force to be reckoned with on the Texas Music scene and beyond. Influenced by country's ultimate entertainer, Garth Brooks and Texas music royalty like Pat Green, Randy Rogers and Robert Earl Keen, who've built their careers on legendary live shows, Justin Van Sant has the same inherent sense of showmanship.

When Jade, just 5 years old, first had opportunities to sing onstage at fairs, festivals, and honky-tonks, the crowds were wowed, expecting to hear kid songs of a 5 year old. They were in for a pleasant blast of Country as Jade would bust out with songs such as "Don't Come Home a Drinkin' with Lovin' on Your Mind." Performing with Aunt Dottie Jack, Jade caught the attention of the late Country Music legend, Ms. Leona Williams, who invited her to be Leona's fiddle player on a series of shows. She has since done countless shows with Leona, appearances on Ernest Tubb's Midnight Jamboree and "Midwest Country" for RFDTV, "TruCountry" on RFDTV, "Kelly's Kountry Junctin" for PBS in the Ozarks, and more. Jade can be seen all over the country keeping traditional country music alive with her band at dancehalls all over Texas and can be found playing fiddle for Texas' best artists.

Remember there was a leak regarding a Nokia phone codenamed 'Normandy'? Yes, the very same phone which was a purported Asha smart feature phone, but now The Verge reports that the device was actually a Nokia device running a forked version of Android targeting the low-cost smartphone market.
The idea behind the device was to get the applications that Nokia was unable to get onboard its fledging Asha platform. The device, like Amazon's Kindle tablets was bereft of Google services and basically ran Nokia's services but had the capability to run Android apps. The main idea was to solve the app problem.
Notably, if one looks at leaked image of the device, which was published by @Evleaks a few weeks back, there is no provision for hardware or capacitive buttons. This points towards Android being the operating system which has support for software keys, that change according to the orientation of the smartphone.
Nokia Normandy
The report states that the development for the phone was 'full steam ahead', but now that Microsoft is buying Nokia's Devices unit, it remains to be seen if the product will make it to the market considering it runs Android.
Even if it makes it to the market it will have to see light of day before the Nokia-Microsoft deal is completed. Additionally, even if the phone is launched it will probably the only one of its kind as Microsoft will likely kill all projects related to Android and focus on its own Windows Phone platform and perhaps Nokia's smart-feature phone software platform Asha.

7 awesome bits of tech that just freakin' disappeared
Recently, my husband and I were arguing about TiVos, and it's not just because we like to argue. He says that our homegrown MythTV system is a customizable, open-source way to record television, and I say that I miss the chirpy little noise a TiVo remote control made when I fast-forwarded through the commercials. Then we paused to remember Tivo's competitor, ReplayTV. What the heck happened to it?Read More

|Constrained First-Order System Least Squares for Improved Mass Conservation and Complex Fluids
|Computational and Applied Mathematics Colloquium
|James Adler, Tufts University Mathematics
|In complex fluid flow simulations, there is a tradeoff between obtaining solutions that are accurate with a reasonable amount of computational work and satisfying certain conservation laws exactly. For instance, in incompressible fluid flow, conservation of mass takes the form of making sure the fluid velocities are divergence-free. In magnetohydrodynamics, one must satisfy conservation of mass as well as the solenoidal constraint that the magnetic field is divergence-free (i.e. there are no magnetic monopoles). Many methods have been applied to such systems, some being conservative at the cost of accuracy of the momentum equations and others at the cost of efficiency in the solver. First-order system least-squares approaches have also been applied and yield efficient methods for approximating solutions to coupled fluid mechanics problems. However, without proper care, the auxiliary conservation equations may not be solved to a sufficient accuracy. In this talk, we propose a constrained least-squares approach, where we augment the first-order system and minimize the least-squares functional subject to some constraint. Here, we only look at a simple diffusion equation, but present the main ideas, including what types of finite-element spaces to use and the solution algorithm. A domain decomposition or multilevel approach is employed to solve the constrained problem on local subdomains and coarse grids and used to update the unconstrained solution as needed. Thus, we approximate the solution accurately and efficiently using the least-squares method, while still conserving the appropriate quantity.

New details emerge in Cory Barron's mysterious death
CLEVELAND - NewsChannel5 Investigators have uncovered new details about the events surrounding Cory Barron's death.
Barron's body was discovered around 12:45 p.m. Tuesday as trash was being dumped as the Lorain County Landfill., according to Capt. Jim Drozdowski with the Lorain County Sheriff's Department.
Drozdowski said a manager at the landfill quickly called 911 and ceased all operations. Investigators and the Lorain County Coroner were able to quickly determine that the body belonged to Cory Barron, 22.
Fremont community comes together to help support Cory Barron's family
VIDEO: Vigil held for Cory Barron, Fremont man found dead in landfill after Jason Aldean concert
Jason Aldean Tweets condolences to Cory Barron's family
Drozdowski said a ticket from the Jason Aldean concert was on the person of the Ballville Township man.
Barron disappeared from the concert at Progressive Field Friday night.
There was no apparent signs of trauma to the body when it was discovered. The Lorain County Coroner is continuing his investigation today.
Drozdowski also said Cleveland Police are investigating whether Barron fell through a trash chute at the stadium and confirmed that the trash containing his body could have come from Progressive Field.
NewsChannel5 Investigators reviewed blueprints for the stadium from 1992 at the Cleveland City Council Archives Wednesday.
The blueprints show a trash chute located in the northwest corner of the stadium near the entrance to the ballpark.
They also show a trash compactor located at the southeast corner of the stadium near E. 9th and Ontario Streets.
It is unclear how or where Barron may have come in contact with the trash chute.
The Cleveland Indians declined our request for information about garbage collection and disposal at the stadium.

Ottawa Senators Foundation, Ferguslea Properties Limited and the City of Ottawa break ground at Bayshore Park for new Sens RINK project
OTTAWA - The Ottawa Senators Foundation (@sensfoundation), in partnership with Ferguslea Properties Limited and the City of Ottawa, broke ground on the third phase of its Sens RINK (Recreational Investments in Neighbourhood for Kids) Project with a ceremony this morning at Bayshore Park.
Senators president Cyril Leeder joined Dan Greenberg, Barbara Crook of Ferguslea Properties Limited, Ottawa Senators Foundation board chair Graham MacMillan, Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson and Councillor Mark Taylor to break ground on the project.
"The Ottawa Senators Foundation, Ottawa Senators Hockey Club and our network of partners believe the more youth get active and engaged the better we all will be now and in the future," said Graham MacMillan, board chair, Ottawa Senators Foundation. "The Sens RINK projects promote physical activity, recreation and social development. Success will mean more of our youth will believe in themselves and be positive contributors to our community."
"We are committed to making Accora Village is a vibrant, caring community with access to outstanding recreational facilities, especially for youth," says Ferguslea's Barbara Crook "The Sens RINK project is a perfect fit with those goals — and a perfect fit for the Accora Village community."
Located at Ferguslea's Accora Village in Ottawa's Bay Ward, the Sens RINK at Bayshore Park will provide access to recreational programs and activities for hundreds of children and youth. The project includes the installation of hockey dasher boards, fencing, hockey nets in the winter and basketball and lacrosse nets in the summer. Managed by the City of Ottawa, the Sens RINK Project's recreational spaces will offer free year-round sporting programs and will serve as a social hub for local families.
"This is more than a new rink – it's a true community asset. We want to thank the Senators Foundation for their partnership for yet another community rink that will create recreational opportunities for families," said Mayor Jim Watson. "As we've seen with the other Sens RINK projects, I'm confident this new location will act as a magnet for people to come together and have fun."
The Ottawa Senators Foundation have committed to building 20 outdoor rinks in neighbourhoods in Ottawa, Gatineau and the surrounding regions. The groundbreaking and subsequent construction of the Sens RINK at Bayshore Park marks the third of the 20 rink committement, following the opening of the Rink of Dreams at Marion Dewar Plaza and the Sens RINK at Jules Morin Park.

"You can also just put the butter on the griddle and lay the tortilla on top. You can then just butter the 2nd tortilla before flipping. No mess that way."
Reviewed May. 7, 2015
"Good. Nothing special really. Just your standard fresh-tasing quesadilla. I thought buttering the tortillas was kind of annoying,"
Reviewed Jun. 11, 2014
"Very good! Hard to flip so they cheese stays inside. I would try ham or chicken or roast beef another time or even bacon."
Reviewed May. 6, 2013
"Liked this recipe very much just the way it is shown here---especially how the outside of the tortillas got so crispy!"

Operator: Good morning, and welcome to the Rockwell Collins Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2013 Earnings Conference Call. Today's call is being recorded.
For opening remarks and management introductions, I would like to turn the call over to Rockwell Collins' Vice President of Investor Relations, Steve Buesing. Please go ahead, sir.
Steve Buesing - VP, IR: Thank you, Tina, and good morning to all of you on the call. With me on the line this morning are Rockwell Collins' Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Clay Jones and Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Patrick Allen.
Today's call is being webcast and you can view the slides we will be presenting today on our website at www.rockwellcollins.com under the Investor Relations tab.
Please note, today's presentation and webcast will include certain projections and statements that are forward-looking. Actual results may differ materially from those projected due to certain risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to those detailed on Slide 2 of this webcast presentation and from time-to-time in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings. These forward-looking statements are made as of today and the Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
So, with that, I'll turn the call over to Clay.
Clayton M. Jones - Chairman, President and CEO: Thanks Steve and good morning everybody. Late last year I characterized fiscal year 2013 as a year of transition and this quarter's performance illustrates our progress along that journey.
Our third quarter results once again demonstrate the kind of operating performance that this company is capable of delivering, even as we wait for overall revenue growth to return.
So let's start by looking at the sales results. Revenue came in as expected with 7% Commercial Systems growth where most notably our aftermarket increased 13%. That growth was offset by the anticipated decline in Government Systems of 11%. As the impacts of sequestration particularly impacted some of our short cycle products and order timing.
Now the net effect was a 3% decline in revenue which I believe will represent the low watermark in year-over-year percentage comparisons for both Government Systems and Rockwell Collins overall with improvements beginning in our Q4.
Segment operating margin performance was exceptional across both business expanding by 140 basis points up to 22.4% of sales. In commercial systems operating margins were up 340 basis points to 23.4%. The third best quarterly margin rate we have ever posted for this business rivaling the rate we saw in 2008.
In Government Systems operating margins were 21.4%, down just 40 basis points despite a dramatic sales decline as the benefits of cost reduction actions were able to mostly offset the headwind from our lower revenue. Our ability to manage through a very dynamic market environment further demonstrates the strength and resiliency of our company's unique and balanced business model.
Now that performance allowed us to increase operating earnings by 3% and with the benefits of our share repurchase program, we increased earnings per share by 5% to $1.20 a share. And as we've done throughout the year, we had another good quarter with cash flow well ahead of last year. As we have seen almost continuously over the last four or five years, there are plenty of changes to note this quarter across our served markets.

A little over a month ago I was contacted by Wayfair to participate in a DIY challenge along with some other bloggers. If you are not familiar with Wayfair, you are in for a treat. Their tagline is 'a zillion things home' and though I haven't counted, my guess is they are close. An online retailer, they offer everything from rugs to the kitchen sink. I'm serious, you can buy a kitchen sink, along with trampolines, furniture, baby monitors…you get the picture.
The rules of the challenge were that I choose one of three products to transform anyway I wanted with the help of a $50 gift card from Giftcards.com.
My three choices were a bookcase, a pendant light or a coffee table.
Since I was in the market for a light for my son's room, I went with the pendant light (#2 above). With my $50 gift card, I purchased a can of orange spray paint, an industrial style wire cage from Barn Light Electric and an nostalgic Edison-style light bulb from Lowes.
This is what I started with. A great start but I wanted to add a little color to coordinate with the oranges and blues that I was adding to my son's room. Plus, I've been swooning over Layla and Kevin's industrial-style barn light ever since I saw it.
Next, I took the pendant outside to spray on a coat of Rust-oleum spray paint in an orange gloss.
After it dried, I added the wire cage and Edison light bulb and replaced the nondescript boob light with the new vintage industrial style light that I've seen for several $100 elsewhere.
I'm so happy with the results and can't wait to finish the rest of the room.
I'm sending out a big thank you to the team at Wayfair for including me in this challenge. To see other fabulous bloggers and their AMAZING transformations, check out Wayfair's DIY Blogger Challenge board on Pinterest.

The icons in this collection were painted by the hand of iconographer Matthew Garrett. They are arranged in order of the liturgical year and are accompanied by short lives of the saints and prayers.
At 14 years old, having expressed interest in learning to paint icons, Matthew's father arranged for him to spend the summer of 1991 working at the St. John of Damascus Icon Studio. Matthew worked in the studio while completing his education. Matthew has developed a distinctive style which combines elements of Greek, Cretan, and Russian iconography. In addition to painting for Churches and individuals, he has exhibited his work, given lectures on icons, and teaches icon painting workshops. Matthew has served as a chanter, Church School Teacher, Parish Council Member and Parish Council Chairman. In 2009, Matthew moved to Boise, ID to marry his wife Lisa. His wedding gift to her was a set of hand-painted icons for the iconostasis of their mission parish. On their one year anniversary, he donated a Pantocrator for the ceiling of the parish. He and his wife, are members in good standing of St. Seraphim of Sarov Orthodox Church (ROCOR) in Boise.

Today Hunter went to the park to check out some Tennis programs and practice with his hot little trailer. But after she a little occupied he had nothing else to do but leave. On the way to the car Hunter spots Zoei sitting at the bench by the lake and What can i say... Zoei had to have one of the sickest bodies to ever be featured. Zoeis ass and thighs was fucking ridiculous. Out of this world and truly a sight to see. This was truly a MILF my friends and a woman in every sense of the word. She was a bit timid at first but after Hunter had a shot at her she really loosened up and let it all go. After a little small talk Hunter decided to take things back to his place and really have a taste of what Zoei had to offer. Let me tell you... HUNTER was fucking PLEASED!!!

Apple Inc. Would Be in Trouble With or Without Steve Jobs
Mike Schuster
Oracle CEO Larry Ellison sees a tough road ahead for Apple without Steve Jobs. But the company was headed there anyway.
"He was brilliant. I mean, he was our Edison. He was our Picasso. He was an incredible inventor."
That was
(NYSE:ORCL) CEO Larry Ellison describing
(NASDAQ:AAPL) co-founder and CEO Steve Jobs in an interview with Charlie Rose for
CBS This Morning
. Describing him as his "best friend for 25 years," Ellison spoke of Jobs as an irreplaceable visionary and foretold Apple's grim future without its boldest leader at the helm.
"Well, we already know," he said, referring to Cupertino's trajectory. "We conducted the experiment." Ellison traced his finger in an upward slope. "We saw Apple with Steve Jobs." And traced it back down. "We saw Apple without Steve Jobs." Back up. "We saw Apple with Steve Jobs." And down. "Now, we're gonna see Apple without Steve Jobs."
Even though
the stock surge triggered by Carl Icahn's tweet
yesterday would have accounted for a slight jump in Ellison's predicted trajectory, the Oracle chief nevertheless predicts a tough road ahead.
[Also see:
Carl Icahn Joins Apple Long Play
When Steve Jobs passed nearly two years ago in October 2011, analysts, investors, pundits, fans, everyone wondered where Apple was headed without Steve Jobs leading the flock. How was Apple going to be able to survive, let alone flourish, without the man who spearheaded the iPod, the iPhone, and the iPad and brought the company back from the brink of bankruptcy?
But even if Jobs were alive and well and still running Apple on a full-time basis, the company would be in the same position it is today.
Back in early 2011, I wrote that Apple, for better or worse,
had basically painted itself into a corner
. Given its lineup of computers, media players, phones, and tablets, the company had most, if not all, of its customers' bases covered. Communication, social media, travel, commerce, entertainment, work -- all were tended to by a small handheld device in one's pocket or a magazine-sized tablet in one's knapsack. And because the products were so versatile and so successful, there was little for it to introduce -- at that stage, anyway -- that would blow a consumer market away like it had already done.
We continue to hear rumors about an Apple HDTV set and wearable technology like a watch in the pipeline, but neither seems nearly as essential as a high-capacity personal media player in 2001 or a smartphone in 2007. For many folks, another TV set or Bluetooth-linked watch in 2013 (or 2014, or 2015) is wholly unnecessary and even a little boring.
And "boring" is an operative word, albeit a tad extreme, for the current state of the mobile industry, which is Apple's current bread and butter.
The innovation over the better part of the last decade has been staggering, and we're left with choices from Apple,
(NASDAQ:GOOG), and
(NASDAQ:MSFT) that would provide any customer, at the very least, a very decent and capable smartphone option. The hardware and operating systems of each company's flagship device offer an amazing array of features and abilities we would never have dreamed possible prior to the iPhone's release, leaving users with an above-par experience no matter which ecosystem they choose. And when everyone is, more or less, on equal footing, it makes the former industry leader look a little less special.
But where does that leave us? Where can we go from here?
The whole industry is in a bit of a holding pattern in terms of revolutionary, groundbreaking releases. Considering that most of us have been toting a smartphone in our pockets for at least a few years, every subsequent unveiling of yet another black rectangle takes another shred of surprise and cachet from the concept. It seems that manufacturers and developers, not just Apple, are at a bit of a loss as to where to take the smartphone industry that doesn't involve a better camera or a longer-lasting battery.
That's not to say there's a shortage of pretty innovative software features, but they're coming almost exclusively from six miles north of Cupertino.
In its mad dash to out-innovate Apple, Google has surpassed the tech giant not only in market share, but also in app store downloads and software that's as impressive as it is essential. At this point, many of the best apps on an iPhone
come courtesy of Google
: Gmail, Google Now, Google Maps, Google Chrome, Google Drive, and others are arguably better than iOS's default offerings. And the polish that Mountain View has given its Android OS has been noticeably
popping up in various iterations of iOS
. (Control Center, anyone?)
And that's to say nothing about Google Glass or Chromecast.
Google has taken the market-leading reins and made Apple look less innovative than we know it can be. And it might have to do with the residual complacency, and a dash of arrogance, leftover from the Jobs era.
Jobs was never one to be told what to do.
decided where he wanted Apple to go.
decided which features to implement. Unfortunately, by the time the iPhone 4 debuted, things were starting to look mighty familiar. In the years leading up to the end of his run as CEO, Jobs appeared to be playing it safe while his competitors were shooting for the moon in terms of features. Apple dragged its heels and took way too long to play catch-up with some pretty big components: cut and paste, multitasking, 4G LTE, voice commands, etc. (And we're still waiting for widgets and the ability to
change the default keyboard
Jobs left behind a road map of where to take the company when he handed his chair over to current CEO Tim Cook. The extent of that battle plan is a mystery outside the hallowed halls of the Infinite Loop campus, but -- assuming a very basic R&D timeline -- it surely included a rough draft of what to expect in the following year's iPhone 5. However, when the iPhone 5 ushered in a larger, 4-inch screen and LTE connectivity in 2012, the industry had long moved on. (It didn't help that execs actually touted panorama photos on stage either.)
And from the looks of iOS 7 and the dull rumors surrounding yet another iPhone "S" release, that heel-dragging trend doesn't appear to have changed much.
Jobs was inarguably a visionary leader, but the man wasn't infallible or immune to an arrogant dismissal of where the industry was headed or what customers actually wanted. A continuation of his leadership would leave Apple exactly where it is today: a former industry leader behind the innovation curve, still searching for a way to get back on top.

Yesterday, after a much anticipated meeting with some Great Lakes governors, officials from the Army Corps of Engineers, the Environmental Protection Agency and other agencies within the Obama administration announced a multi-pronged plan to combat the migration of Asian carp into the Great Lakes.
This plan includes money to build a third electronic barrier to prevent the spread of the carp, as well as funds to expand DNA testing and for the construction of a barrier between the Des Plaines River and the Sanitary and Ship Canal. The plan also calls for reduced lock openings and other measures to prevent the spread of invasive species.
Additionally, there is money allotted in the plan to assess the feasibility of a plan to close the locks in the long-term as well as to look into alternatives to lock closure.
The plan itself seems to have all of the bases covered, but it is not what many were hoping for. Governors from many of the Great Lakes states were hoping to close the locks indefinitely while other arrangements could be made.
This is just the beginning of what looks to be a busy week on the Asian carp front. Today congressional hearings began on the issue, and there are more meeting scheduled throughout the rest of the week in D.C. and Chicago.

Farmer v. Arabian American Oil Co.
Annotate this Case
- Syllabus
- Case
U.S. Supreme Court
Farmer v. Arabian American Oil Co., 379 U.S. 227 (1964)
Farmer v. Arabian American Oil Co.
No. 32
Argued November 9-10, 1964
Decided December 14, 1964
A doctor formerly employed by an oil company to work in Saudi Arabia sued for breach of his employment contract. The jury failed to agree, and the District Judge granted the company's motion for a directed verdict. Costs of more than $6,600 were taxed against the doctor, including transportation expenses of witnesses from Arabia and daily transcripts requested by company counsel. The Court of Appeals reversed, on the ground that a verdict should not have been directed, and remanded for a new trial. On remand, the case was dismissed because of the doctor's inability to post a $6,000 bond as security for costs. The Court of Appeals again reversed, and indicated that the costs already taxed were exorbitant. At a second trial, the jury found for the company. The clerk taxed costs at almost $12,000 for the two trials, which the second District Judge reduced by over 90%, eliminating the expenses of the overseas witnesses and the cost of the daily transcripts. The Court of Appeals upheld the costs for the second trial, but reversed as to costs for the first trial, although reducing the amount, holding that the second judge failed to give proper deference to the first judge's taxation of costs.
1. The 100-mile subpoena provision in Rule 45(e) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure does not completely bar a district court from taxing as costs expenses of transporting witnesses more than 100 miles, for Rule 54(d) does leave the district court discretion to tax such expenses. Pp. 379 U. S. 231-232.
2. It was not error for the District Judge at the end of the second trial when judgment was finally entered, to determine costs for both trials, the first judgment and taxation of costs having been upset by the reversal of the trial judgment. Pp. 379 U. S. 232-233.
3. The District Judge's discretion was appropriately exercised in his taxation of costs for both trials. Pp. 379 U. S. 233-236.
324 F.2d 359, reversed.

Beginner in over his head.

When they ask me why so expensive what are some good points to bring up for vinyl plotting cost vs screen printing vinyl costs?
Thank you and sorry for my lack of grammar.
Posted 09 March 2012 - 06:50 PM
The cost of 150' (50 yards) is around $45. or 30 cents a linear foot.
9 into 30 is 3-something. So far, we have each 4x4 decal costing under 4 cents, just for the vinyl material.
Next, we factor in the application tape. Not a huge deal, but say a penny more per decal.
5 cents x 400 = $20. (your raw material cost)
Do the math for the 5x5's and you can easily see that you're nowhere near $1000.
Does that help?

.10 per Sq In sounds cheap. That would be $1.60 for the 4 x 4 and $2.50 for the 5 x 5. I would be charging more than that unless the are very simple decals.
You would be charging $640. for $20. worth of materials? REALLY?
Posted 09 March 2012 - 08:14 PM
The transfer im using = $45 per roll
so already my materials dont cost $20
not to mention overhead/cost of equipment and god forbid some money to feed myself and enjoy life.
I dont think I fully understood your post Slice&Dice are you saying I should only be charging $20 for 400 4x4 decals?
Posted 09 March 2012 - 08:36 PM
I am merely providing a calculation of the costs, and bringing to your attention that $1000 is UNREASONABLE.
OK, you are using slightly more expensive vinyl, so the 400 decals will require 45 feet (say 50') that's $20 total and OK, you'll use up $10 worth of transfer tape (if that).
You have to base your rates to the client with the calculation that you've only consumed $30 of materials.
I can't tell you what to charge, but wouldn't you think that maybe $200 is about right for 400?
What kind of decals are these? Something really complicated and highly specialized?
Posted 10 March 2012 - 07:35 AM
You would be charging $640. for $20. worth of materials? REALLY?
The cost of the vinyl is nothing compared to the time it will take to make 500 decals. Depending on the complexity of the decal you are cutting it could take you over 100 hours to cut and weed those 500 decals. That's working for $10 per hour. Even if you do it in 50 hours, (6 min per decal to cut, weed, apply app tape and cut to individual decals) That's $20 per hour.

Doing double that quantity probably would have added an hour, maybe.
The hardest part was a "registered" R in a circle that was 3/8" tiny, and I nearly went blind popping out the center of 200 miniature R's and I had the little damn dots trying to escape from me as I went along.
I charged $100 for the whole thing. After my materials cost (less than $20) I ended up profiting over $40 an hour for this 2-hours of work.
Anyway, that's just me. YMMV.
Posted 10 March 2012 - 05:17 PM
I do not see this being done in less then 2 hours unless they were circles. Still got taping and separation, packaging, billing. It all takes time.
Posted 10 March 2012 - 06:34 PM
Posted 11 March 2012 - 06:00 AM
i do discounts for 100+ and so on but i will never drop to a few cents per decal
i only use good vinyl like oracal learnt my lesson with ebay vinyl
Posted 11 March 2012 - 06:46 AM
Really? 200 pcs 3" x 4" for $100 dollars? 4 bits each. 2 hours weeding. What about machine time? layout time? design time?
I do not see this being done in less then 2 hours unless they were circles. Still got taping and separation, packaging, billing. It all takes time.
Yes, really, the entire job was finished in somewhat under 2 hours (layout, cutting, weeding, and taping, no packaging, and "billing" was writing up the sales invoice)
They were very simple decals, yes, not much involved (as I said, the "R" registered symbol was very tiny, so it took some attention to detail), and I used basic vinyl from Fellers' (ShineRite intermediate).
Assuming the $0.07 I have seen quoted here on the forums as a proper charge per square inch of vinyl work, my customer should have paid $126.
(4 decals across, 4 decals down = 16 decals per square foot, or $10.80 '''''' 200 decals/16 = 12.5 linear feet x 10.80 = 126)
Again, YOUR Mileage May Vary, but I've tried to answer this thread to the best of my ability.
Posted 16 March 2012 - 02:49 PM
$0.10 per inch. Customer was more than pleased to pay $160.00 for the order. The little angry ball is the sticker. This one didnt pass quality control so I added it to my desktop workstation.
Posted 16 March 2012 - 06:35 PM
Well done!
Posted 16 March 2012 - 08:25 PM
Yeah once I got going on these I can see how easy it is to pretty much get into the groove and knock them out.

Not blaming anyone specific, more so hate the distributors of supplies who sell products to anyone and everyone regardless of actually owning a business. Gone are the days of having to supply business information and confirmation to a wholesale supply house to get access to their supplies at wholesale prices.

March 25, 2004
SEATTLE - The University of Washington begins its 101st season of intercollegiate crew competition with an even longer running tradition. The Huskies open the 2004 season with their 103rd-annual Class Day Regatta, Saturday at 10 a.m. on the Montlake Cut.
Class day racing started in 1901, two years before Washington hosted California on June 3, 1903 for the school's inaugural intercollegiate race. UW defeated Cal by three boat lengths in a four-oared event over a 1 1/2-mile Lake Washington Course.
The Class Day Regatta, which annually signals the start of UW's spring racing season, features a varsity-novice challenge followed by competition between the freshmen, sophomore, junior and senior classes. Crews are comprised of rowers from the same class, with the fastest men's eight from each class competing for the George M. Varnell Cup and the women's eights vying for the Seattle Times Cup.
Last year's Class Day Regatta was eventful, featuring a mixed men's boat and a major mishap in the women's race. A shortage of seniors last year forced the Class of 2003 men's crew to include three sophomores.
The sophomore women were upset winners of the 2003 Seattle Times Cup. The senior women had a boat length lead with 300 meters remaining before some milfoil got caught on their rudder, forcing the boat into the concrete wall in the Montlake Cut. The seniors pushed off the wall and started up again, but the delay enabled all three other crews to pass them.
The Huskies officially open the 2003 season next weekend at the San Diego Crew Classic, April 3-4.
Eleanor McElvaine begins her first season as head coach of the Washington women's team after serving 13 years as an assistant to Jan Harville who retired in July. The Washington women's varsity eight is ranked 10th in the preseason coaches poll after finishing fourth at the NCAA Championships last spring. Only two rowers return from last season's varsity eight crew.
The Husky men are ranked second behind defending national champion Harvard. UW's varsity eight won the 2003 Pac-10 championship and placed second at the Intercollegiate Rowing Association championships before winning the Ladies Challenge Plate competition at the prestigious Royal Henley Regatta in England. Seven rowers return from last year's varsity eight crew.
The Montlake Course
The starting line for the Huskies' home regattas is on Lake Washington, parallel to the Evergreen Point floating bridge. The course runs from east to west through the Montlake Cut to the finish line near the mouth of Portage Bay at the west end of Montlake Cut. A good view of the race course is available along either side of Montlake Cut, or from the Montlake Bridge.
