Canadian dollar leaps to 1-week high as U.S. jobs data impresses
By Claire Sibonney
TORONTO (Reuters) - The Canadian dollar jumped to a more than one-week high against its U.S. counterpart on Friday and outperformed all other major currencies after data showed U.S. employers stepped up hiring in October.
The currency brushed off a tepid domestic employment report to cheer a larger-than-expected gain in U.S. payrolls that signaled hope for an economic recovery in Canada's biggest trading partner.
"We would have thought initially at first blush that the weakness in the Canadian data would have mitigated Canadian dollar gains," said Jack Spitz, managing director of foreign exchange at National Bank Financial.
"That has not turned out to be the case."
The currency hit an intraday high of C$0.9921, or $1.0080, its strongest level since October 25, even though the U.S. dollar .DXY itself rallied to a near two-month peak against a basket of currencies after the release of the U.S. jobs numbers, the last major report card on the economy before Tuesday's presidential election.
The Canadian dollar ended the North American session at C$0.9956 to the greenback, or $1.0044, compared with Thursday's close of C$0.9968, or $1.0032. It ended the week up 0.2 percent.
"The financial market flows, the (speculative) flows, asset management flows, real money flows have all been selling U.S. dollars against Canada," Spitz said.
Looking ahead, he said he saw U.S. dollar support around C$0.9890-9900 and resistance around the 200-day moving average near parity. Continued...

Go-shop provisions have changed the way in which private equity firms execute public-companies buyouts. While there has been considerable practitioner commentary on go-shops over the past three years, this Article presents the first systematic empirical evidence on the effect of this new dealmaking technology on deal pricing and deal process. Contrary to the claims of prior commentators, I find that: (1) go-shops yield more search in aggregate (pre- and post-signing) than the traditional no-shop route; (2) "pure" go-shop deals, in which there is no pre-signing canvass of the marketplace, yield a higher bidder 17 percent of the time; and (3) target shareholders receive approximately 5 percent higher returns through the pure go-shop process relative to the no-shop route. I also find no post-signing competition in go-shop management buyouts ("MBOs"), consistent with practitioner wisdom that MBOs give incumbent managers a significant advantage over other potential buyers. Taken as a whole, these findings suggest that the Delaware courts should generally permit go-shops as a means of satisfying a sell-side board's Revlon duties but should pay close attention to their structure, particularly in the context of go-shop MBOs.
63(3): 761 - 775 (May 2008)
In this Article, we suggest that the existing standards of liability for breach of fiduciary duty should not change in order to account for changing circumstances. The existing standards of conduct and liability incorporate the necessary flexibility to balance the potentially competing duties of constituency directors with protection of the interests of various corporate constituencies. And if the fiduciary duty standards in corporation law are not sufficiently flexible to accommodate particular circumstances, constituents may wish to invest in an alternative entity (such as a limited liability company) governed by other law that will accommodate their needs. Or perhaps the investor may be able to effect a legally authorized change in the certificate of incorporation of the corporation to permit it to be governed more to the investor's liking.
63(3): 777 - 807 (May 2008)
Consequential damage waivers are a frequent part of merger and acquisition agreements involving private company targets. Although these waivers are heavily negotiated, the authors believe that few deal professionals understand the concept of consequential damages and, as a result, the inclusion of such waivers may have an unexpected impact on both buyers and sellers. The authors believe that this Article is the first attempt to define "consequential damages," as well as some of the other terms used as purported synonyms, in the merger and acquisition context. After tracing the historical derivation of the term and its current use by the courts, this Article considers the impact of such waivers in a hypothetical business acquisition and proposes some specific guidelines for the negotiation of these waivers.
63(3): 809 - 854 (May 2008)
The scope of NSMIA preemption is a critical issue going forward, as state securities regulators seek to continue to police "exempt" offerings which are undertaken at regional, state, and local levels. This Article focuses on how state and federal courts are reconciling the important objective of NSMIA to make securities law more uniform with the historic mission of state blue sky laws to protect investors. As part of reconciling this tension, we believe it is necessary to preserve states' authority to fulfill their longstanding interest in working alongside the federal government to provide investor protection.
63(3): 855 - 879 (May 2008)
Officers and directors of a troubled corporate enterprise can expect to face a host of complex decisions as they attempt to restructure the corporation's affairs. These decisions may be made more difficult because officers' and directors' fiduciary duties extend to all shareholders, including creditors, when the corporation is in the zone of insolvency. The role of corporate restructuring counsel is critical in this uncertain environment. This Article provides a comprehensive overview of recent court decisions and statutory changes relating to the fiduciary duties of officers and directors of troubled companies. It also provides practical applications of these principles to common situations that directors and officers face as they attempt to guide a troubled business toward a successful restructuring.
63(3): 881 - 905 (May 2008)
Directors of Delaware corporations owe to their stockholders a duty of disclosure derived from their ordinary fiduciary duties of care and loyalty. A common disclosure claim is that the target company's disclosure document in a business combination was materially misleading or incomplete with respect to the fairness opinion relied on by the target's board in evaluating the transaction. The Delaware courts have decided numerous cases involving claims that disclosure as to some element of a fairness opinion – projections, analyses, assumptions – is defective. This Article describes the general duty of disclosure, discusses the principles behind the cases of fairness opinions, and sets out a framework for predicting the information that must be disclosed with respect of fairness opinions under Delaware Law.
63(3): 907 - 919 (May 2008)
During 2007, Congress showed significant interest in mandatory pre-dispute consumer arbitration agreements. Some in Congress focused on whether to prohibit them altogether. This Article argues that such legislation is unnecessary because the current system of consumer arbitration works well and needs no fix. The authors review case law and empirical studies showing that the current system of checks and balances in the area of consumer arbitration law is sufficiently protective of consumers' rights. These protections emanate from: (1) the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA") itself, (2) the careful drafting of arbitration agreements, (3) the use of third-party arbitration administrators, and (4) the rigorous enforcement of the FAA by state and federal courts.

Quote, originally posted by black forest ind » Scott... we think you will love the .5's after a little time with them but if not here is another option that we just released:
Brand new, just released from Black Forest are these stealthy updgrade options for your spiritedly driven daily vehicle. These mounts are specifically engineered to fall in between new factory mounts and our popular .5 Mounts. These are constructed from solid gravity cast polyurethane and NOT made from rubber like the factory pieces. This will ensure an extremely long product life that will not break down like rubber, while still giving added performance with factory-like comfort preserved. All necessary hardware is included!
What's the shore hardness on these? I may be doing a mount replacement for a friend & think these may be the ticket.

Project Description2006 RADA
On The Boards / Merit
The judges remarked on the clear presentation, ambitious goals, and contextual response of this mixed-use project designed for a slim San Francisco parcel. "It's considering so many different aspects," one observed.
Collaborators Gregory Klosowski, AIA, and Veronica Hinkley-Reck designed 16 housing units between ground-floor and some top-floor retail spaces. They envision the studio, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom units as prefab modules dropped into a site-built framework of concrete and steel. "We were trying to give the feeling of single-family dwellings in an urban context," Hinkley-Reck says. Residents can customize their porches and front façades, and every dwelling enjoys access to private and public garden space.
Solar panels and rainwater collectors supply a sustainable component. "We wanted to really integrate sustainability into the building, so it's not tacked on," Klosowski says. He and Hinkley-Reck first created the currently unbuilt project for the 2005 San Francisco Prize competition, where it won honorable mention recognition.

Programme 2015/16
The theme of this year – what Strelka has called Hybrid Urbanism – sets out to explore the ways digital technologies are manifested in the space of the city and speculate of their potential applications and transgressions. If personal data becomes the new economic resource, how can we claim ownership of it? When inevitably Google moves into the urban space, what new regulations will accompany this expansion? How can something small, such as ad blockers, contribute to a positive change in food industry? When the city is no longer brick and mortar but a responsive sensor-powered environment, what new behaviours will it bring? Learn more
Programme 2014/15
Big Future
This time Strelka's educational programme was called Big Future. The students were offered a list of global trends that will radically affect our life in the next century. Over the course of the program the teams explored 11 of those trends by challenging existing definitions and proposing their own. 11 different projects constitute the outcome of this work and also form the basis for the Big Future exhibition that presents an imaginary landscape of Russia in the future.

Programme 2013/14
Urban routines
What defines the daily life of a city? How does the past influence our present reality and what will the future entail? By researching the fabric of the ordinary, is it possible to arrive at ambitious outcomes and create on their basis innovative projects? Learn more
Programme 2012/13
Agents of change

Editor's Note to Sentinel Event Alert Issue # 30
Please note that the Sentinel Event statistics have changed since the Sentinel Event Alert Issue #30 was drafted. As of December 31, 2005, there are a total of 109 cases of perinatal death or permanent disability that have been reported to the Joint Commission for review under the Sentinel Event Policy. Of those 109 cases, 93 resulted in infant death and 16 cases involved major permanent disability.
While a healthy and safe birth for the mother and infant is the goal for all labor and delivery units—regardless of the level of services available—in some instances, what should be a joyous, celebratory event turns to tragedy when the newborn dies. The rate of perinatal mortality in the U.S. has steadily declined to a rate of 6.9 deaths per 1,000 live births in 2001. (1) Nevertheless, since 1996, a total of 47 cases of perinatal death or permanent disability have been reported to the Joint Commission for review under the Sentinel Event Policy. Cases considered reviewable under the Sentinel Event Policy are "any perinatal death or major permanent loss of function unrelated to a congenital condition in an infant having a birth weight greater than 2,500 grams." Forty of the cases resulted in infant death and seven cases involved permanent disability. The mothers ranged in age from 13 to 41, with the average and median age being 27 years, and in just over one-half of the cases, it was the first child. The average gestation was 39 weeks.
While the absence of early and regular prenatal care is a leading contributor to the risk of infant death, review of the JCAHO's 47 cases reveals that lack of prenatal care was an identified maternal risk factor in just 4 percent of cases. Other identified maternal risk factors included age (13 percent), previous C-section (11 percent), diabetes (4 percent), and substance abuse (4 percent). Identified complications during the birth included: non-reassuring fetal status (77 percent), placental abruption (8 percent), ruptured uterus (8 percent), and breech presentation (6 percent). Forty-nine percent of the cases were emergency C-section; 46 percent vaginal deliveries; and 4 percent delays in C-section decision. Of the vaginal deliveries, 21 percent were vacuum extraction delivery or attempted; 13 percent mid forceps delivery or attempted; 11 percent failure to do indicated C-section; and 8 percent vaginal birth after C-section (VBAC).

Burien woman enters not guilty plea in Seattle Parks shooting, alleges manipulative game forced her hand
Burien resident Carolyn Piksa pleaded not guilty on March 25 to a first degree assault charge for allegedly shooting a co-worker on March 8 in North Seattle, and told authorities after her arrest she was trapped in a "game of manipulation" involving her victims.
Piksa, 46, is being held on a $1 million bail in advance of her case setting hearing in King County court on April 8.
According to court records, Piksa allegedly shot 65-year-old Bill Keller in the chest at a Parks Dept. building, and then threatened another employee, Cynthia Etelamaki, with a gun at a nearby facility (she also faces a second degree assault charge for that incident). Park Dept. buildings were locked down for a good portion of March 8 while authorities searched for their suspect. She was arrested later that day at her S. 115th St. home in Burien.
Charging documents in the case show Piksa, who went by the name "Zoom," was a long time Seattle Parks Dept. employee who went to a Parks building where Keller was stationed shortly before 2 p.m. on March 8.
After her arrest, Piksa told authorities she went to confront Keller with a .357 caliber revolver because she believed he and Etelamaki were involved in a "game of manipulation" that included having cell phone contacts removed from her phone, taking money from her bank account and making noises at night that kept her from sleeping, according to court records.
Piksa reportedly told detectives she confronted Keller in his office and asked him a series of questions about the "game," and "I knew he wasn't saying what should have been said." She told police she pulled out her gun and pointed it at Keller. Keller later told police he asked Piksa not to shoot him in the head. Instead, she allegedly shot him in the chest.
Court documents show Piksa said she went directly to the Bitter Lake Community Center to confront Etelamaki with similar questions about the alleged manipulation. "Piksa told detectives that she would have shot Etelamaki if she had received the wrong answers from her during their conversation," according to court papers. She allegedly threatened to shoot Etelamaki, but instead stole her purse and fled.
Serving a search warrant at Piksa's Burien home later that day, police said they found two firearms, including the .357 revolver allegedly used in the shooting.
Both Keller and Etelamaki said they had few interactions with Piksa leading up to the incident, and there was no known friction.
Court documents show Piksa told detectives it was time to "put my cards on the table," and "Now I'm out of the game," after her arrest.

Go back in time for a romantic break in a handcrafted gypsy caravan or traditional shepherd's hut – but still have firm mod cons to hand including breakfast delivered to your very own door? We'll have a very large portion of that please, and quite possibly seconds.
There's more than a touch of the Enid Blytons about spiffing Georgian farm site Glamping Thorpe – traditional, tiny but with bags of space per pitch and hidden away in a rural retreat on the Oxfordshire/Northamptonshire border (attentive owners Anna and Paul will even take you on a vintage tractor ride to the top of their highest hill to see some smashing English scenery).
Campfires are allowed, of course, for frying up dinner of an evening over a glass of wine or a ginger beer (the town of Banbury is about six miles away for picking up supplies). If you can't be faffed cooking, stroll across the fields to local pub The Three Conies in the village of Thorpe Mandeville for wizard home-cooked food daily and an amicable atmosphere.
Amenities at Glamping Thorpe are quirkily cute too, with an old horse box converted into a spacious shower room with loo and wash basin, and a separate compost loo built like a tipi – we're pretty certain even the Famous Five never had it this good.

Many sites set a maximum occupancy of 6/8 people per pitch, so try breaking your booking down into smaller groups to generate more results. For example, if you're a group of 10, enter 5 people in your initial search and then book 2 pitches.
However, where the pitch or accommodation occupancy allows it, you can now make a booking for up to 30 adults and 30 children on one pitch.
To book multiple pitches or accommodation, use the 'Special requests' box on the booking page to ask to be sited together. Complete the booking form for the first booking (you can add a password and save your card so that we remember your details). Then click "Make another booking like this" at the top of the confirmation page to make the next booking.
Large groups: check the listing page for any group restrictions set out in the terms and section titled 'Please note'.
Large tents/caravans: check the restrictions on unit dimensions to ensure your unit is suitable for the space you will be provided with.

no hot water pressure in kitchen faucet
We just installed a new hot water heater, it sits in a room next to the bathroom, with the kitchen one room away. We have pressure in all faucets hot and cold, except the kitchen. We have pressure on the cold side, took all connections apart down to the shut off valve and checked pressure, it was good. When the hose is not connected to the under side of the hot faucet, and we turn on the hot water shut off, we only get a small stream coming out of the hose. We have checked under the house, no leaks. And suggestions?
You have a debris blockage in the hot water shut-off valve at that sink most likely.
Turn the water completely off to the water heater, dismantle the hot water valve, put a towel over it and have someone turn the water on very briefly to try to flush it out.
Good Luck!

Before we get stuck into JVC's DLA-X7 projector, we really feel compelled to say that we were perhaps a bit harsh on the 3D capabilities of the brand's DLA-X3 entry-level model when we reviewed it a couple of weeks back. We've actually continued to use the X3 a lot since the review went live, and the longer we've spent with it, the less its 3D crosstalk issues have bothered us.
This is strange, as experience usually suggests that you notice crosstalk on a 3D product more over time rather than less. But we guess it proves that the crosstalk on the X3 is ultimately low-grade enough for us to have slowly started to tune it out.
We were having these feelings even before Sony's VW90ES 3D projector turned up. But when that considerably more expensive rival ended up suffering markedly more with crosstalk than the X3, we could no longer deny that an 8 for the X3's 3D performance would probably have been fairer than the 7 we originally gave it.
We've reflected these thoughts in the Comments under the X3 review, but it's worth reiterating them here. Partly to give peace of mind to people who might have been put off the X3 by its 3D mark, and partly to add pressure to the X7 we're looking at today!
After all, with the X3's performance ultimately impressing us pretty much across the board, and the X7 costing nearly twice as much at £6,550, the X7 is clearly going to have to go some to make the extra outlay seem worthwhile.
It's first attempt to win us over comes with its 70,000:1 contrast ratio claim - a near 40 per cent jump on the X3's 50,000. And the figures take on even more significance when you consider that as with all JVC's recent home cinema D-ILA projectors, the X3 and X7 both quote native contrast ratio figures, rather than figures conjured up via a dynamic iris.
Why does this matter? Because it means the figures are genuine reflections of the projector's ability to place light and dark objects simultaneously within the same frame, rather than being 'artificially' created by automatically reducing brightness levels when showing predominantly dark content, as happens with the dynamic contrast ratio systems found on many home cinema projectors.
As well as making dark scenes punchier and more detailed, not having to use a dynamic contrast arrangement should also make the X7's pictures more stable and consistent.
Home cinema enthusiasts, meanwhile, will be very happy to see the X7's high-gloss black body emblazoned with a white 'THX' logo, revealing that its pictures have been officially endorsed by the renowned American independent quality assurance organisation. The projector carries a THX picture preset, too.
Endorsement is also present and correct from the Imaging Science Foundation (ISF), which considers the projector flexible enough with its set up tools to allow an ISF-trained engineer to come round and professionally optimise the X7's picture settings to suit your particular environment.
The sort of tools we're talking about extend to three user memories for gamma control into which you can store your preferred values for the output level of the white, green, red and blue elements of gamma performance using a 12-point system.

Here is a beautiful artist signed "AH" Haviland Limoges 9 3/4" plate decorated with hand painted columbine flowers in colors of purple, pink, and yellow, with green leaves, on a powder blue background, with embossing and scalloped rim. This plate dates from 1893-1930 and is in excellent condition with the exception of gold loss and what appears to be an extremely minute bubble burst at the rim. I honestly believe it to be a manufacturers defect and not a chip. In any event it is quite tiny and hard to see. We are happy to accept lay-a-ways!

text: As part of a facial rig I've been working on, I'm trying to make an object (a lower lip control) use another object's (the jaw bone's) pivot point for x rotations. All other xforms would be based on its own pivot. The two objects will not be linked, but the lip control will inherit some of the jaw bone's rotation, if that matters. I have been banging my head against the wall trying to use the about context in a float script controller on the x rotation, but that doesnt seem to be working. Any and all help would be extremely appreciated.

Today my mommy bought me a new toy! It's a little green tiger who squeaks! I love it! I got a new collar and harness too. The collar is red plaid, and the harness is plain red. I overheard them talking about Christmas, and something about clothes?
Hiya! My name is Checkers. And I'm a little white puppy who's favorite color is black. I was just adopted and brought home today. I met my new big sister, Diva. And she is so hyper and fun! Sometimes she's bratty and won't share with me, but I deal with it. I love my new family. I'm so excited that I can't seem to control my bladder much! But hopefully that'll straighten up within a few days. Yay

Immortality - Poem by Jasmine Williams
It stole all my gifts
My soul, my passion, my love
Now everything is lower than the sea
So lower than should be, it is lower than me
I bleed the sadness like a willow tree
I scream, I scream, I scream
What is singing for?
If I am without melodies
What is dreaming for?
If I have only broken dreams
The passion from my life has died
Fiery hatred is born
I can feel the contempt arise
While, my holiness is scorned
I can feel the truth subside
For lying is a lure
I can see the darkest side
It seems so clean and pure
Seems as if my destruction is the cure
From all that I endure
I can feel my soul in rage
Urging to let its voice escape
Looking for another way
To fight the pain
Yes, this evil is insane
To kill the life I never had
Steal my love, my good, and made it bad
How dare this immorality?
Every day for it astray
All my love and pride away
I scream, I scream, I scream
what is winning when I am losing everything
What is liking for when I cannot like anything
How can it be? I cannot make of it
though; it's made of me internally

'Dignity Therapy' (DT) is a brief, flexible intervention, which allows patients to complete an interview and create a document regarding their life, identity and what they want to leave in writing for their loved ones. DT is based on the DT Question Protocol. Developed and tested in English speaking settings, DT has proven to be a feasible and effective way to enhance patient dignity, while diminishing suffering and depression. The aim of this study was to test the acceptability and feasibility of the DT Question Protocol among Danish health professionals and cancer patients, and to obtain preliminary estimates of patient uptake for DT. These results will be used to inform a larger evaluation study.
Ten professionals were interviewed about their perception of DT and the Question Protocol. It was then tested with 20 patients at two palliative care sites and one gynecologic oncology department. Data was analyzed using content analysis techniques to evaluate the protocol for relevance, acceptability and comprehension. The interest and relevance of the intervention was also determined by examining the preliminary participation rate.
Overall, DT was perceived to be comprehensible and relevant. Professionals highlighted six concerns that might warrant modification. These issues were examined using patient data. Some of their concerns overlapped with those raised by the professionals (e.g.' unacceptable self-praise' and 'interference with the lives of others'). Tailoring DT to Danish culture required easily accommodated adjustments to the procedures and the DT Question Protocol. Some concerns expressed by health professionals may have reflected protectiveness toward the patients. While the intervention was relevant and manageable for patients admitted to palliative care, DT was less easily implemented at the gynecologic oncology department.
Based on patients' and professionals' reaction to the DT Question Protocol, and based on the preliminary proportion of participants accepting DT, the DT question protocol - with minor adaptations - appears to be a manageable, acceptable and relevant intervention for Danish patients admitted to palliative care.

You may recognize Cherie Killilea as the smiling face toting duffles at StudioCherie. In addition to selling her sewn items and PDF sewing patterns, Cherie is the mother of three– 2 boys and one fairytale character. You can learn more about Cherie and her work on her blog, and watch for StudioCherie sewing patterns in the Simplicity catalog starting this December. Today she's here to share this easy and fun Hooded Cape Costume tutorial. The tutorial helps you create a one size fits all 26" long play cape
with pointed hood!
In our house, we love fractured fairy tales. Take a classic story and tell it from another perspective. For years we ate those up at bedtime. One of our recent favorites came out in film format, Hoodwinked.
Inspired by Red's costume, I made this super quick pointed hood and cape for my daughter. The costume is completed with a blue mini skirt over bell bottomed jeans and a plain tee shirt. It really doesn't get any easier than this. As you can see, dressing like an animated movie star is a big hit with Gabrielle.
- Cutting mat, long quilters ruler, and rotary blade OR
- Large table, measuring tape, straight edge, non-permanent
fabric marker, and sharp scissors
- 1 yard of 44" wide red fabric
Using the cutting layout as a guide, cut as indicated by dashed lines
. Round the bottom of the cape (optional– the cape in the photos was not rounded). Cut the top triangle off of the cape piece so that the top edge of the cape measures 12".
After cutting, finish all edges of your three pieces. I used a rolled edge on my serger for a narrow hem all around. If you do not have a serger, you can do any kind of narrow hem or none at all.
I also turned the hood front under another 3/4" along the long (bias) edge, and hemmed it there.
1. The front of the hood is stitched to the back of the hood, right sides together. Use a narrow seam allowance. (Red dotted lines indicate stitches.)
2. The top of cape is centered on hood back and stitched right sides
together with a narrow seam allowance. Turn right sides out, and it is ready to tie on.
All you need to finish your Hoodwinked-style costume (if you want to go all out like we did):
1. Add some trim to the bottom of denim bell bottoms
.
2. Pull a blue mini skirt over the top of the jeans.
3. (My favorite part) Wear a plain tee shirt.
Have fun with your costume!

Ooh, I want to see the green capes too Kelly! Michelle, yes! He devoured those books. My son said it needed it needed to be a cloak with a cowl. Then he asked, "what's a cowl?" I better get started, so your son doesn't beat me to it.
Cherie, is your son by chance reading the Ranger's Apprentice series of books?? My almost-12 year old is sewing his OWN cape and cloak from green and grey mottled camo-ish cotton because I was taking too long to get it done. I think if he could live in that book series, he would…
I hope you will post photos of your little Reds. I would love to see them!
great tutorial. I might have to make a green one and call it a Robin Hood Cape for my boys.
Just came home with fabric for daughter's red riding hood cape for halloween, reading one pretty thing & putting off sewing … *smiles* thanks so much for the easy pattern, guess I have to get started on it now!
Thank you for responding so quickly to my question. I bought the fabric yesterday and can't wait to make this cape. My little red is gonna be the cutest in my neighborhood. Thanks again for such a great post.
I have to do this, defenitly!!!
I'm a fan of Cherie's…she's creative and makes a project seem easy. I have two grandaughters and maybe another on the way (baby is due in December – then I'll know the sex). I can see some capes in the near future. Add a little applique, or use a boyish novelty fabric and I can see a cape for my young grandson too. Thanks Cherie!
IIIIIII love it!
This is so adorable! I wish I had a little girl to dress up this Halloween! Great job Cherie!
For WellMom, I would take off 4″ for a 2 year old size. So the hood back would be 22″ instead of 26″ and the front 14″ instead of 18." Take 4″ off the length as well. I don't know how petite your little one is, but that would be my best guess at a good fit. Keep the top of the cape at 12," don't make that part any smaller.
For Rebecca, watch my blog. I also have a 12 year old son. He wants a camo cloak with a cowl so he can completely disappear. I bought a couple of yards of realtree camo at JoAnns the other day. I will post the how-to for you on my blog when I get to it. It will have to be soon, and it will have to be quick to make, so it should be in time for you. I have to get my Christmas stockings done first though…
This is so darling-and leave it to Cherie to create something this cute, and using such a little bit of fabric, and fast to make too! I only wish I could make one for my own daughter-but she's almost 15!
Well done Cherie!
What an easy way to make a cape. I love that you use almost every inch of fabric.
Very Cute!
This is so perfect – my daughter has been asking to be little red riding hood!
Thanks for the tutorial
Cute! Thanks for the great tutorial.
So cute! Thanks for the great tutorial!
Thank you! This will be incorporated into my daughter's witch costume for Halloween!
Great idea, thank you! My daughter could use one of these!
I have a problem; I have been sewing card table tents and felt growth charts for my young grandchildren. BUT. now my 12 year old grandson is upset with me because everything I find is for younger kids. Do you have anything for boys -12 yrs and up to make?? that wouldn't seem to "babyish" for them?
I appreciate any feedback you have.
Love seeing what great things you have on your blog. Thanks
This is much better than using an old sheet to have a cape!
thanks for the tutorial. II plan on using it next halloween for my little gal.
I just decided to have my little one be Little Red Riding Hood for Halloween, can you tell me how to scale this down for a 2 year old? I love your diagram and instructions though, I've been looking for a few days for a good cape pattern to no avail. They were all so confusing.
This is great!! Thank you!
Maybe I can talk my daughter into being little red riding hood for Halloween, she really has her heart set on Strawberry Shortcake though. Any tutorials for the particular costume? Lol…
Great tutorial, every super hero is always better with a cape! I foresee many Superman costumes made with this help 🙂

About $50,000 in the proposed town budget would be used for a special plane flight in Colchester, CT. The cost to put the data online? $3,000.
Wellington, FL is trying out using a Segway equipped with GPS and computer to capture data for the GIS. It's very green, per the article in the local paper.
The Segway test is currently collecting all items that are in the right-of-way, Navarro said. Traditionally collecting GIS data was a two-person job that required traveling in a truck, collecting the data and then returning to the office to download the data, he said.
"With the Segway everything is completed within the field and is added to the GIS map immediately. The GPS on the Segway can locate an item within 4 inches," Navarro said. "I no longer need to head back to the office to download the data I have collected."


text: HOUSTON, May 24, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Texas Gulf Energy, Inc. (OTCQX: TXGE) ( www.tgnrg.com) Chairman and CEO David Mathews announced today "Texas Gulf Energy, Inc. is pleased to report that the company generated $9.1 Million in Revenues in the First Quarter of 2012, a 60% increase from the same period in the prior year. Gross profits increased from 5.6% in Q1 2011 to 21.6% in Q1 2012. There were significant non-recurring, one time items relating to our acquisition of three companies due to legal, accounting and professional fees in excess of $200,000 and non-cash compensation expense of $214,000. We continue to be pleased with our progress in building Texas Gulf Energy and have exceeded our business plan to date for 2012." Please see management's discussion of the results of operations, summarized below, and the full first quarter 2012 10-Q Report available on our website. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011 Consolidated Consolidated revenues were $9.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012; an increase of $3.4 million, or 60%, from consolidated revenues of $5.7 million in the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase in consolidated revenues was a result of an increase in utilization at International Plant Services, L.L.C., the underlying business environment, and the acquisitions completed by the Company. Consolidated gross profit increased from $.32 million in the three months ended March 31, 2011 to $1.96 million in the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase of $1.6 million, or 513%, was primarily due to higher gross revenues. Gross profit increased to 21.6% in the three months ended March 31, 2012 from 5.6% in the same period a year earlier. The gross profit improved due to improved utilization and rates. The Company has increased its employee utilization from 76% to 95% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 to March 31, 2012, respectively. The Company also improved rates we charge to our customers and have negotiated better rates from our vendors. Consolidated selling, general & administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $1.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $.7 million in the same period a year earlier. The increase of $1.2 million, or 171%, was primarily related to higher operating costs in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 due to the addition of new operating units that did not generate revenue in the first quarter, additional finance and legal expenses related to becoming a fully reporting public company, acquisitions, increased business volumes and strategic initiatives. SG&A expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2011 included $214,000 in non-cash compensation not incurred in the 1st quarter of 2010. SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue increased to 21% in the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to 12% in the same period in the prior fiscal year. We expect SG&A as a percent of revenue in future quarters to drop as new business units bring on projects and associated revenues in accordance with our 2012 plan. About Texas Gulf Energy, Inc.

Is there a formula for sin(x/3)?
I do not think it is likely because it is impossible to trisect an angle exactly in geometry. Since you can not do that I do not know how you could make a construction of right triangles that would lead to a triangle with exactly 1/3 of the original angle in it.
I guess you're right. I was looking forward to finding the value of the sin 1 (deg).
There is the infinite series
sin (x/3) = x/3 - (1/2)(x/3)^2
+ (1/6)(x/3)^3 + ...
-(-1)^n *1/n!* (x/3)^n
(n-> infinity)
Damon has made a good argument that there may be no closed form equation for sin (x/3) in terms of trig functions of x.
I tired Googling sin(x/3) and found nothing
For angles that small, the approximation sin x = x is very good. x must be in radians to use it.
Sin 1 degree = sin pi/180 radian
If you use the first term of the infinite series, that gives you pi/180 = 0.0174533...
The exact value is 0.174524...

Pat Shingleton: "A Blessing from the Bishop"
The Bishop of Winchester was a Benedictine monk who died on July 2, 862. As referenced in a previous column, upon his death, he requested to be buried outside so rain would fall on his grave. His request was not relayed to those in charge of funeral arrangements in the village of Winchester and he was entombed inside the cathedral. Reportedly, a lengthy drought immediately began. When the good Bishop was re-interned outside the drought ended and rain returned for 40 days. The tradition states that if it rains on July 15, St. Swithin's Day, it will rain for 40 days - applicable for England only. "St. Swithin's Day if thou dost rain, for 40 days it will remain. St. Swithin's Day if thou be fair, for 40 days 'twill rain nae mair


text: Kevin Doyle on Downton Abbey and swapping serial killers and servants for an alpha male The Crimson Field actor tells RadioTimes.com about playing Colonel Roland Brett and why there's "much more to come" for Mr Molesley in series five of the ITV period drama Comments Written By Susanna Lazarus 7:33 AM, 06 April 2014 Kevin Doyle is fed up of playing serial killers. And servants (most famously as Mr Molesley in ITV's Downton Abbey). BBC1's new WW1 drama The Crimson Field affords him the opportunity to step into some alpha male shoes as Colonel Roland Brett, and he's relishing it. "It's nice to be giving orders rather than receiving them," he told RadioTimes.com. "It took me a while to get used to being a figure of authority - to have someone with quiet authority who is rather placid." But besides acting creepy, it turns out there are other downsides to being typecast as a murderer. "I played a killer in the Lakes a few years ago and somebody screamed at me on the tube once. I thought, 'Oh god, have I got to get used to his now?" And when he's not giving viewers a fright, he's getting mistaken for a handyman. "I got somebody who asked me, did you do my central heating last year?" Lord Grantham would never have to put up with this... Set in a field hospital on the Western Front, The Crimson Field sees Doyle's character battle to save the gravely injured soldiers fighting in the trenches. Co-starring Hermione Norris, Suranne Jones and Oona Chaplin, the six-part drama from Great Expectations writer Sarah Phelps is part of the BBC's World War I season and focuses on the female nurses thrust onto the frontline of a war like none they'd ever seen. "To suddenly have young men with legs missing, their internal organs out, how do you cope with that?" questions Doyle. "Apart from patch it up and just hope for the best. They didn't have the expertise, they didn't have the experience, they didn't have the medicine to cope with that." Next up for Doyle is the fifth series of Downton Abbey - "it gets more interesting, there's much more to come" - and if its a hit with audiences, a second series as Colonel Roland Brett in 2015.

Deutscher Tropentag 2003, International Research on Food Security, Natural Resource Management and Rural Development, Technological and Institutional Innovations for Sustainable Rural Development Book of Abstracts, Georg-August-Universitat Gottingen, p. 368 Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: Conservation agriculture (CA), a general term for a series of resource-conserving agricultural practices, has seen a tremendous worldwide spread in the last years. CA practices have been promoted for at least the last 20 years in Central and South America and in the USA, with remarkable success and benefits to the environment. One of the still "best-kept secrets" might be the adoption of CA in the Rice-Wheat systems in South Asia. Starting from a modest 3,000ha of zero-till wheat in 1998-99, in the 2002-2003 season CA is being practised on roughly 500,000ha in the Indo-Gangetic-Plains. Three agronomic practices seem crucial for CA: avoidance of soil disturbance (reduced/zero tillage), residue retention and crop rotation. These three components must be locally adapted based on factors such as climatic and edaphic conditions, cropping systems, type of farmer and the socio-economic situation. To guide the transition from conventional agriculture to CA, detailed knowledge is required about how a given agricultural system will respond to CA practices. While understanding of basic processes underlying CA has advanced rapidly, there is still a pressing need to refine our ability to integrate effects of climate, soils and management in a predictive fashion. Systems research tools such as crop-soil simulation (CSS) models can increase the efficiency of the necessary research by quantifying the impact of different variables on productivity and resource conservation. However, CSS models were originally developed for conventional agriculture systems. Thus, the influence of reduced tillage and residue retention on soil physical parameters, such as infiltration rate, soil evaporation, water holding capacity and soil temperature, and their effects on surface runoff/erosion, crop soil water availability and crop emergence are seldom addressed. The poster describes how soil physical parameters would be expected to be affected in the short or medium term by CA practices. The current status quo of the capability of some most common CSS models to tackle these dynamics is highlighted and scope for improvement is given. To promote collaboration in modeling CA practices, CIMMYT and USDA-ARS have started an initiative to facilitate communication between researchers worldwide active in modeling CA systems.

Hello, my name is Jerry, and I am a rifle whore! This is my story....................
A couple of weeks ago I did something that I haven't done in over 15 years...I bought a rifle with a blued barrel and a gen-u-wine wood stock. Fancy that! For close to 20 years I've been a big proponent of the fiberglass composite stocks ( I simply detest the cheap injection molded Tupperware stocks) and stainless barrels for a working man's rifle, a rifle that will actually be used, and carried over hill and dale to be hunted with in all weather conditions! I've always loved the feel and warmth of a rifle with a lovely wood handle...but inclement weather and the occasional horse with an ill disposition has kept me using rifles with a fiberglass handles.
What rifle did I buy? I caved to the whimsical desire and justification that I needed another rifle...when it comes to rifles, I'm worse than any woman with her purses and shoes!!! When it's time to go hunting I open the safe pondering which toy will see the light of day to come out and play.
Hello, my name is Jerry, and I am a rifle whore! This is my story.....................................
After reading Ian's review of the Thompson Center Icon and the various articles in the shooting rags I was mildly interested in this new rifle. Then when I really got fondle one of these new rifles (you know rifles really are cheaper than women) and was able to run my hands over the Icon's graceful lines and curves I really started to take notice. The first Icon I touched was in .308 and it lasted a day on the dealer's shelf. I told my dealer to hold the next .308 model to come in. The next to arrive was a .243 and the wood on this model looked like something on a 30K shotgun. Then a .30 T/C came in and that looked even better, and I'm still holding out for a .308 model.
One day my dealer who I keep on speed dial, calls me to let me know he has a couple of Icons in .308 for me to look over, and I make my way over to the gunshop to audition one of these likely new candidates. After much discussion and perusal of these fine examples of wood and steel I made my selection. I married my new Icon with one of the new Nikon Monarchs in 2.5 X 10 X 42mm scopes, with a set of Leupold lever quick release rings (all I had at the time).
Once home the new Icon weighs out at 8.75 pounds on the scales. Certainly no short action lightweight! Then it's off to look under the hood at what makes the Icon tick. Simply back out the three Allen screws in the bottom metal. The fit and finish in the areas you can't see are superb!!! The metal to metal, and metal to wood fit and finish is excellent. The trigger came set at 4.25 pounds and I couldn't live with that. Push out two retaining pins (trust me this is the best way to adjust the trigger) with your fingers and viola the trigger housing drops into your hands.
Then I turn the trigger spring adjustment screw to its' lightest setting, then remove the RTV goop from the sear and overtravel screws to adjust them. After a series of adjustments the trigger breaks like a glass pipette at three pounds. I would have liked 2.5 pounds...just can't get there yet.
What do I like about this rifle? A WHOLE LOT of things! It's a rifle with new technology that's made in the U.S.A. For a production rifle this beauty has a lot going for it! The bolt stop/release is Sako style, the safety bolt lock system is a lot like a Sako 75, the fat body bolt reminds me of a Weatherby, the bolts' three lug 60 degree arc is very much Sako-esque. The bolt has a very good extractor. The aluminum bedding block/plate with the three locking recoil lugs provides for a stellar fit and lock-up between the barreled action, stock, and bottom metal eliminating a lot of problems with wood stock rifles. The muzzle has a target crown.
What do I not like about this rifle? Very little and much of this is personal preference and a couple of quirks in the rifles' design. The butter knife bolt handle looks good and gives the rifle a distinct look-at-me appeal and I'm different than my market brothers. It functions flawlessly...I just don't care for it. I will most likely order a round bolt knob from T/C when they are available.
The single stack magazine holds three rounds and works flawlessly. With this design you lose one round capacity versus a hinged floor-plate, perhaps a moot point.I would have preferred a hinged floor-plate or a detachable box magazine similar to the Sako 75 system. The ejector works perfectly everytime, but could be a wee bit stronger but this also could effect accuracy. At the bench with magazine inserted you cannot lay a single round on top of the magazine to fire a single round. It will not feed a single round in this fashion, again this is really a moot point and I knew about this design quirk before I bought the rifle. To fully charge the rifle with four rounds you can insert the magazine and let the bolt strip of the top round, or you can tilt the muzzle down and manually insert a round into the chamber and close the bolt, it is a little difficult but works. The smoothest method is to let the bolt strip the top round and then remove the magazine to add another round and re-insert.
How does it shoot? AWESOME!!! I first tried some $10.00 a box Federal 150 gr. soft points that printed 5 shot groups slightly less than one inch groups at 100 yds!!! Next I tried factory Winchester 150 gr. BST that printed a 5 shot group just under .500 on a cold breezy day! Yousa! I'm liking what I'm seeing!!! Once I get some dies in .308 it will be interesting to see the results! Not too bad for a competitively priced ($899.00 my cost) commercial production rifle.
I think Thompson Center has a real winner on their hands with the Icon! Would I recommend this rifle to a friend? Absolutely!!! This rifle is an absolute steal at the price I paid!!!!!!!!!!!! A stainless and wood model would look awesome! I'm sure there are other model variations in the planning.

Thanks for an interesting and comprehensive review of the new Icon. You will be pleased to know that TC has a great little plastic insert that facilitates single loading. A long narrow adapter simply slips into the top of the magazine and enables loading one cartridge at a time. Believe they will be available shortly and will not be expensive at all. Plus the new round knob bolt handles will soon be available, I used one extensively and they seem to give better leverage. Plus I prefer their looks, but that is a personal preference.
You will find that the uplift and closing of the bolt is quite stiff when new, after about 200 rounds the movement will get significantly smoother. Just simple break-in. Also the barrel may need a fair bit of cleaning initially, again to get through a break-in period where there is some smoothing and burnishing taking place. I have 500 rounds though my .308 and it is still a bit rough as far as copper fouling goes, but it certainly shoots accurately.
I got to shoot some new stuff a while ago, including the first and only prototype composite stock for a custom shop offering. The stock weighs 22 ounces and is tougher than you can believe. There are some other goodies coming that will widen the scope of available models.
What is amazing is the fact we switched barreled actions back and forth between stocks and accuracy stayed a constant. Did not seem to matter which stock and barreled action went together, they shot very well.

Thank you for the kind words! I really enjoy the articles you write here and in other publications! There was an article several months back in American Hunter titled " Can You Go Long" that was very interesting and enlightening.
The Thomspon Center Icon as is, is a quality rifle that represents a lot of value for the dollar. I really think it's a winner! I also think with S&W being the parent company T/C will have greater distribution capabilities and R&D resources at their disposal. This should make it a lot quicker for Icon goodies to get in the pipeline.
A few other ruminations come to mind about the Icon...
I'm glad they went with a medium sporter weight 24" tube versus a wimpy 22" pipe. The receiver is appears to be very strong and rigid reminding me just a little of the shape of a Browning A-Bolt. I like the way the receiver is milled and machined making for a very different look. The mini 1913 picatinny rails make for a solid lock-up with the appropriate rings and save you the cost of bases.
The bolt glides on the raceways making for superbly smooth operation and looks heavy duty and built for the long haul. It does come with a lifetime warranty! The bolt disassembly tool looks just like the tool that came with some of my Sako rifles and that's a very, very smart option. Clearly some forward thinking here for future options!
If you open the hood on a Remington or Ruger for example, and look in the barrel channel or the bottom of the receiver you will find tooling marks and rough places. This is typical manufacturing, you can't see it and it really doesn't matter for the most part. I had the distinct luxury of taking my Icon apart before I bought it. The attention to detail in the barrel channel and the bottom of the receiver, the fit and finish of what I could see and couldn't see are some of the many things that sold me on the gun. Of course a friend's range target from his Icon went a long way to seal the deal.
My rifle came with a computer generated representation of the test fire target that showed a 3 shot group of .740. Of course an actual target would be much nicer but not as cost effective. The S&W-T/C rep I know tells me that every Icon is test fired by hand fully stocked (no machine rest) just before shipping, just as it is will be delivered.
I hope the market decides the Icon is a winner, only time and the bean counters will tell. I've seen 4 different Icons fired at the range, all of them in .308 Winnie and they have all shot under and inch!!! I've peaked under the hood on 3 different Icons and all 3 have been superbly fitted and finished. If T/C can keep this level of quality up that would be awesome indeed and nothing in its' price range comes close.
I like the Icon well enough that down the road that I may consider buying another one...just waiting to see what they have to offer. Some many rifles, so little time!

We have never had it so good with choices of fine rifles. The Accutrigger from Savage has set a standard and all of a sudden us ordinary shooters can be trusted with factory triggers set at less than four pounds! Also Weatherby and T/C are putting rifles into boxes that actually shoot one inch groups and showing the proof with targets. Weatherbys have actual holes in the paper, particularly the MOA models, whereas the Icon has a computer printout but it is of the group shot by that particular rifle. If the rifles do not meet the moa standard they go back upstairs to get worked over or a new barrel so that they will beat one inch. One inch is a good group, despite the fact that most talk in the gunshops is about 1/2 and 1/4 inch groups that are shot with ease. I still have a problem averaging one inch for five groups with some of my rifles, some will average nearer to 1/2" for several groups, the big variable is me.
Glad you are enjoying your Icon, I am very fortunate to know the designers and they want this rifle to set a standard. It is seen as being a platform for other projects, just watch what is coming. Obviously down the road at some time we will see more riflestock options, more barrel contours, hinged floorplates, various action lengths and maybe even bolt handles on the wrong side. TC has ideas cooking that will keep us shooters interested for sometime.

Is there any chance they will offer an octagon barrel? It seems that someone would, I believe the last was a win super grade to offer that from the factory.

Here come the Facebook smartphone rumors again, with the latest reports saying HTC is developing a customized smartphone with the social network, possibly debuting as early as the third quarter of 2012.
Digitimes reported that Google's move to partner with Samsung on the next-generation Nexus smartphone, rather than with HTC, which produced the Nexus One, led HTC to turn its attention to Facebook.
Sources told Digitimes the new, Android-based smartphone will feature a platform dedicated to Facebook, which will enable users to access all of the social network's functions.
HTC debuted two smartphones in February 2011 with Facebook features and blue F keys, the ChaCha and Salsa (pictured), but they were only released in Europe and Asia.
Readers: Do you think there will ever be a Facebook-dedicated smartphone, or is it not necessary, given the prominence of Facebook's mobile applications for all platforms?

Bedford County officially opened it's new Stewartsville Waste and Recycling Center on Drewry's Hill Road, just off Va. 24. The opening took place at 1 p.m., Dec. 19 with some county residents already waiting in line. The old dumpster site, located farther down Drewry's Hill Road, was closed at the same time.
According to District 1 Supervisor Bill Thomasson, the Stewartsville dumpster site is the second busiest waste disposal site in Bedford County.
Bedford's Elks lodge won't get a tax exemption. Town Council voted against the lodge's request by a 5-1 margin. Councilman Beckham Stanley was absent.
"I am fully aware of the good works of the Elks," commented Bedford Mayor Bob Wandrei.
However, Wandrei said it's important for all to pay their fair share of taxes.
"I cannot support this ordinance," Wandrei said of the ordinance that would have granted the tax exemption.
Bedford County Administrator Carl Boggess, announced Monday that Nicole (Shackelford) Johnson, associate director for development and marketing at the National D-Day Memorial, has been named the new director of tourism for Bedford County.
The Bedford County Board of Supervisors dealt with several items, Monday night, during the group's last meeting of 2016.
A public hearing on a request by Bedford's Elks Lodge for real estate tax exempt status drew only one speaker. Tim Childress, a member of the Lodge who spoke in favor of it.
Childress said the Lodge's directors are not paid and no money goes to any members and the Lodge does not attempt to influence legislation.
"The tax is significant to the the Lodge but is negligible to the town," Childress said.
The Bedford County Board of Supervisors voted pay raises for full time and part time county employees, effective Dec. 1.
The raises are the result of a salary study that indicated that Bedford County salaries are substantially lower than those paid by surrounding localities. It will cost $900,000 to implement the pay raises for the rest of the current fiscal year, which will end on June 30.
The raises range from 2 percent to 32 percent, depending on how a position ranked in the study.
When Bedford Town Council convenes for the first time next year, two men will no longer occupy one of the hot seats.
Robert Carson and Beckham Stanley chose not to run and newcomers Bruce Johannessen and Bryan Schley picked up the vacant seats.
Carson, who served on Council for four years, said he tends to be his own worst critic.
"I just didn't feel very effective," he said.
The town of Bedford intends to enter into a solar franchise agreement with the North Carolina-based solar developer O2 emc to construct a utility scale solar farm within the town.
The facility will be located off Draper Road adjacent to the old town landfill and will occupy approximately 20 acres. O2 will lease the land from the town.
Bedford residents living in low density residential areas (R1) will now be able to keep chickens in their backyard.
According to Assistant Town Manager Bart Warner, the new ordinance is based on the ordinances that Roanoke and Salem have and no roosters are allowed.
Enforcement will be complaint driving. Council adopted the ordinance by a 5-0 vote with Councilmen Beckham Stanley and Jim Vest absent.
Election day appeared to be drawing a heavy voter turnout. According to County Registrar Barbara Gunter, most precincts had recorded a 50 percent voter turnout by 3 p.m. She noted that this is a high turnout.

New President at ABC Supply
Keith Rozolis has been named president of building products distributor ABC Supply Co. Inc. He continues in his role as chief operating officer, with day-to-day responsibility for leading ABC Supply's branch and manufacturing operations, its marketing and merchandising groups and its divisional companies.
David Luck, who has been president since 1998, continues as ABC's chief executive officer.
Rozolis joined ABC Supply in 1999 as vice president of strategic marketing and planning. He was promoted to senior vice president in 2005 and to executive vice president and chief operating officer in 2009.
"Keith has played a pivotal role in helping ABC Supply evolve into the company it is today, and this promotion will position ABC for continued success in the future" Luck states. "Keith has overseen the development of the marketing infrastructure necessary to support the company's rapid growth and expansion. He has been instrumental in driving many of major strategic initiatives that have differentiated ABC Supply from its competition, including our associate and customer engagement measurement programs with the Gallup organization, the ABC Supply Customer Service Delivery System, our Solution Center program and programs that leverage our partnership with AJ Foyt Racing."
Prior to joining ABC Supply, Rozolis worked for Bridgestone/Firestone Retail Operations in several capacities, and for Maaco Enterprises, an automotive franchise operation.
"By transitioning some of my responsibilities to Keith, I will continue to support Keith in his new role and also be able to focus on new strategic initiatives that will sustain ABC's growth for many years to come," Luck notes.
