SME's Composites Manufacturing conference and exposition comes to Covington, Kentucky (Cincinnati area) in 2014!
This is the composite manufacturing industry's authoritative event exploring how composites are changing aerospace, automotive, defense, recreational and sporting goods, and wind/alternative energy.
Here's what industry specialists point to as evolving trends in composites manufacturing:
- Increased use of automation, out-of-autoclave tooling and processing for structures, and integration of natural fibers, bio-resins, and other "green" materials and processes.
- Automotive, recreational, wind energy, and aerospace are currently making the most use of composites materials.
- Steady growth in the next three to five years in aerospace and engine manufacturers, with more advanced composites going into aircraft primary structures and next-generation engine and duct/cowl designs.
- Automakers are answering the call for increased fuel efficiency by making greater use of composites in new car designs to reduce vehicle weight.
Composites Manufacturing 2014 is three days of expert workshops, conference sessions and demonstrations of the industry's latest materials and manufacturing technologies. If you're considering composites for your company's products, plan on attending special pre-event introductory workshops and insightful plant tours on April 8th.
A day or two at Composites Manufacturing 2014 can help you lower costs, enhance overall product quality, and serve new growth markets. Find out how.

Dear Editor:
I have found the heart and soul that is growing the city of Isanti. In looking for a gown for my 10-year-old daughter to wear for the "Pageant of Hope," a pageant for girls with special needs, we visited Family Pathways. We were met by a wonderful employee who didn't just help us look for what we needed, but pulled out every dress that might work in order to help us find the right one.
Our next stop was Demorie Alterations downtown, and what a gem we found in Danna Marie, the owner. Her positive attitude and generous spirit were rare finds in the world of "high turnover" businesses.
Finally, we were blessed to visit Connie Eisen at The Hair Gallery to get my daughter's nails done and we were treated like royalty. My daughter left there feeling like a princess and she hadn't even been in the pageant yet. Now, we are not from Isanti, but are so grateful to have such a community nearby that still believes people are important and realizes that success and growth will come through that.

Fishers, county commit $10M to new I-69 exit
FISHERS, Ind.
The Town of Fishers voted Monday to commit $8 million to a new interchange on Interstate 69.
The money will be combined with $2 million in local funds from Hamilton County toward the estimated $25 million cost of the new exit at 106th Street.
"The new 106th Street exit will reap dividends in economic development and reduced travel on Town streets with minimal impact to through traffic on I-69," said Fishers Town Council President Scott Faultless.
The town council will issue a bond to finance its portion of the project. Once the funds are received by INDOT, planning and an environmental review for the project will take place. Construction could begin on the interchange in 2015.

The behavior of China's stock prices in response to the proposal and approval of bonus issues
Event study analysis is applied to investigate stock price reaction to the announcement of bonus issues for the emerging stock markets of China. Results show that the issues with a high bonus ratio (number of bonus shares in the issue/number of existing shares) usually attract positive returns for both Chinese (A-share traders) and foreign (B-share traders) residents. Issues with a low bonus ratio are rewarded with negative returns for A-share traders and do not stimulate significant activity by B-share traders. The hypothesis of semi-strong form market efficiency is rejected only for small-bonus issues traded on the A-share market; the B-share market displays stronger evidence of semi-strong form market efficiency than the A-share market. Finally, there appears to be additional informational content in the approvals of bonus issues above and beyond that of the proposals, even though most bonus schedules proceed as proposed.

It's only been a week since President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama visited Prince Harry at Kensington Palace, but they're already reaching out to the royal.
On Friday, the President and First Lady teamed up for a hilarious video message to the prince about his Invictus Games for wounded warriors that take place in May in Orlando, Florida. The two were really bringing the heat in support of Team USA!
"Hey! Prince Harry! Remember when you told us to 'bring it' at the Invictus Games," Michelle begins the video by saying.
Barack then chimes in, "Careful what you wish for."
The couple is backed by a group of tough-looking service men who conclude the video with a perfectly timed "boom."
But Prince Harry was not intimidated and called in the big guns (aka Queen Elizabeth II) to help him create a drop-the-mic-worthy response.
Check out the video to see the hilarious friendly warfare, and tune in to The Insider With Yahoo on TV tonight for the latest in entertainment news. and tune in to The Insider With Yahoo on TV tonight for the latest in entertainment news.

One Hand, Two Hands.
I read this book with my 3 three year old son. He actively participated in the physical part of it (wave your fingers, wiggle them etc) but when it came to how hands can help express emotions or help others, he didn't exactly get the concept. He's a year young for this book which is meant for 4-8 year olds and I'm inclined to think the latter age limit is probably better for the child to get the deeper meaning behind this seemingly simple book.
The big hardcover book has plentiful, page-large illustrations to accompany the words, which are meant to rhyme, I think, but not all of them did. That did made them difficult to sing to a tune, which is what my kid and I generally like to do with rhymes. Also, Gaby Hansen's big illustrations are a little busy, very detailed and not always in sync with the words on the page. But they do grab the reader's attention. To the point where my son got so engrossed with them that the actual words failed to hold his attention.
For whichever reason, in our home, the book was a hit illustrations-wise, but not otherwise.

Home Buyers Tips
Changing Jobs Affects Your Ability to Purchase a Home
Dont Change Jobs Before Your Purchase
Salaried Employees
If you are changing jobs and are staying in the same industry at a higher level of pay, a job change should not affect your ability to qualify for a home loan. The higher salary will help you better qualify for a mortgage. If you are considering changing industries, this will cause problems in qualifying for a mortgage.
Hourly Employees
If you are an hourly employee accustomed to working a straight forty hour week without overtime and are considering changing your job, this should not be a problem, if you stay in the same industry. If you are accustomed to earning overtime and the new position does not guarantee a certain amount of overtime, this could be a problem in acquiring a home loan.
Over-Time Hours
Since overtime is never a guarantee lenders will determine your overtime earnings based on an average of your last two years. If you change jobs there will be no track record so this would impact your ability to purchase a home.
Commissions Employees
Mortgage lenders will average the commission portion of your income over a two year period. Changing jobs in a commissions environment, even if you stay in the same industry and sell the same service or product will negatively impact your ability to acquire a home mortgage. Your future earnings cannot be determined because there will be no track record from which to do so.
Self Employment
If you are self employed your lender will want to see a two year track record at the minimum before approving you for a home loan. Self employed individuals generally deduct a tremendous amount of expenses from their earnings, which can also have a negative impact on your ability to qualify for a home loan. If you are thinking about changing to self employment before your home purchase, DO NOT DO IT! Buy the home first.
If your are considering incorporating your sole proprietorship, or are considering a partnership, you should delay that until you purchase your new home.
The best case scenerio is not to make any changes at all until after you have purchased your home.

Is phone arena getting paid off?

How can you give a phone a 9.5 when it clearly has so many flaws like reception, a fragile screen. Etc.

They rate these phones on a whole slew of features...plus it is hard to test a fragile screen and yellow dots (which seem to be random). If you check the review they mention spotty service, but that is something they must be use to on AT&T (plus they probably weren't aware of the antennae issue yet). Either way go look at peer reviews, I find those to be most accurate.

google_buzz does not appear in the description of any module or the code of any module.
I started switching off services modules and received many messages along the lines of:

I switch off everything related to services then switched some back on but all the messages returns. I tried saving settings but that did not work. Services is off until the problem is fixed.

How to become a strong woman in life.
Becoming a woman in life, can be one of the most exciting and difficult trials in life. As a child, I had help on learning how to have effective manners and etiquette. I have been taught the proper way of establishing myself, so that I may be presented as a young lady. This road was the easy one. But, as I got older, I have had to deal with so many pressures from friends, relatives, society and the media. All of these outcomes played a major role on me, as of whom I am today. I have had to fight my way in life, there were times, when my tears were shed. It was not easy, but by the grace of God, I have been able to conquer this difficult path to the new me, of today. I always ask myself this, why would others make it so hard for you to make it in life. This can be either males or females. There is no selective gender when I was experiencing tough times. People make it so hard for me to want to go further in life, but I still pressed on no matter the situation. If, I am happy and want others to succeed in life, I would assume that they would want the same for me. But, it just does not always work out this way. In, my heart, I want to see others happy, but they just don't want to see me happy. It is a sad story to decipher, but that is how some people on this earth are. They react to your pain as if they won a race. I am glad that I have taught myself to be strong and to master whatever obstacle comes my way. Even, if it means if I have to distance myself away from certain individuals whom do not wish me well. Negative people seem to feed off of a persons struggles.. The way that I have become a strong woman in life, is to stay determined and keep focused. I pray for guidance from God, so that I can have his comfort around me at all times in my life. I always try to pat myself on the back, even when no one else does. I strive to always maintain a strong attitude when it comes to my trials and tribulations in life. I have to keep my patience level at a low standard. Being impatient only makes my job even harder. I have to be able to surround myself with the most positive people that wants me to succeed. These people play a big role in my friendship circle. Finally, becoming a strong woman in Christ has allowed me to grow and relate to many hardships that I have had to encounter. I basically had to teach myself how to become the woman in this world that God intended me to be. I have smiled, laughed and cried... But through it all, I have birthed a new image of what it means to be called a strong woman in life.

It was the day after the NHL lockout had come to an end and Jarome Iginla, the Calgary Flames' captain, was one of about 24 players who'd gone through a hard morning skate, harder than most mornings, because training camps were on the horizon.
Iginla is a focal point at any time, but this year, his status with the organization is slightly different than in the past. At the age of 35, Iginla is in the final year of five-year, $35-million contract that will expire at the end of the season. Unless he signs an extension in the interim, he will become an unrestricted free agent next summer.
In the past, the two variables - contract talk and Iginla - generally don't add up to a big story. Iginla usually re-ups with Calgary as soon as regulations permit, without much anxiety or acrimony. In fact, he's played on two virtually identical contracts over the past eight seasons that have paid him the same flat rate - $7-million per year – every year. No weird bonuses, no front or back-loaded tinkering.
But this summer, as many players rushed to get signed under terms of the last collective bargaining agreement, Iginla took a different path. He decided to wait and see what happens next in Calgary – to gauge the general direction of the franchise before he commits to what will likely be the final contract of his career. Now that the lockout is over, Iginla is potentially down to the last six months of his career with the Flames, depending largely upon how this season unfolds So when the matter of his future with the organization came up Monday, Iginla's first response was: "Wow, I didn't expect that question so early there."
But it really is the primary story line in Calgary – that and how both he and goaltender Miikka Kiprusoff, the franchise's two most important players, can avoid the slow starts that have plagued them in the past. Slow starts can be a killer in any year, but they are especially dangerous in a lockout-shortened 48-game season.
First, Iginla's thoughts on the contract:
"It would be my preference to stay here for sure and play on a good team here, which I think we will be – and to win here. It is home. That's where my focus is – getting ready and having a great season as a team and to play well for this team."
Iginla went on to say that once the season starts, "I want the focus just to be on winning games … I definitely don't want there to be any distractions."
But if they're not a very good team, then at least Iginla is opening the door to a possible move elsewhere, which would then oblige the Flames to assess where they're at organizationally before the trade deadline – expected to come sometimes in early April – and see if they need to listen to offers for their captain. Trying to navigate those potentially rough waters will be the job of general manager Jay Feaster, who will need to be in constant touch with Iginla's agent.
The Flames hired a new coach in Bob Hartley and the change should be good for Iginla's offensive production, after he chafed somewhat under former coach Brent Sutter's approach. Iginla slipped to 67 points last year, after putting up 86 the year before that.
"For us, as players it's exciting," said Iginla. "We'll be ready to learn and get right at it. I'm sure there'll be a lot of teaching and camp will be about implementing that new system. There are no excuses. We'll just try to learn it as quickly as we can and go."Report Typo/Error

Garelochhead is a small village at the north end of the Gare Loch in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, 7 miles (11 km) northwest of Helensburgh. Loch Lomond is a few miles to the east, and Loch Long to the west. Garelochhead's 1,265 residents (2001 census figure) are served by Garelochhead railway station on the West Highland Line and a local bus service running between Coulport and Helensburgh.
It is the nearest village to the HMNB Clyde naval base which houses the United Kingdom submarine fleet.
Garelochhead, originally in Dunbartonshire, developed from the 1820s with the advent of steamer cruising during the Glasgow Fair holiday. Tourism was boosted with the opening of the West Highland Railway line to Fort William in 1894, and in the late 20th century its prosperity was linked to the deepwater oil tanker terminal at Finnart on Loch Long and the Faslane naval base. Garelochhead Forest lies to the south.
In 1854 there was a great dispute that became known as the Battle of Garelochhead fought between the locals, led by Sir James Colquhoun, and the passengers of the steamer Ship "Emperor". The trouble started when Colquhoun did not want trippers on the sabbath day. The battle was eventually won by the passengers, but undeterred Colquhoun took his case to the courts who subsequently banned sailings on Sundays.
Before Faslane naval base was constructed during World War II, Garelochhead was a summer destination for people from Glasgow who would arrive from the Gare Loch and spend time in one of the Garelochhead hotels. Following transport advancements, holiday makers stopped coming to Garelochhead. Faslane was built after this, and extended the town as workers settled in the area.
During the 1990s, two of the villages hotels, The Dahlandui and Garelochhead Hotel, burnt down in fires allegedly started by their owners due to the falling tourist attraction of Garelochhead but mainly due to the loss of trade due to the winding up of the construction of Faslane Naval Base.
In the last ten years, due to lack of attendance the local Roman Catholic Chapel has closed down with the Church of Scotland Kirk in the village holding a combined congregation of both Protestant and Catholic
The Gibson Hall is commonly used as headquarters for cycle races round the Coulport peninsula, such as the Scottish Cycling national road race that was organised by Lomond Roads Cycling Club.
Garelochhead Training Camp is a military training facility located nearby.

As everyone knows, I hold Italian food close to my heart, and in my kitchen as often as possible. Lately I've been preparing lots of pasta, and wanted to share two delicious (and easy) fresh sauces to serve up when you're short on time.
Bucatini All'Amatriciana (top left)
While your pasta is cooking, make the sauce. Sauté pancetta (amount to your liking) in a little olive oil until it's crisp. Add in chopped onions, garlic and chili flakes, and cook with crispy pancetta until onions are soft. Add in crushed plum tomatoes, and simmer for 5 minutes. 1 minute before the pasta is ready, finish cooking it in the pan with the sauce until it combines and thickens up the sauce. Remove from heat and add grated pecorino cheese!

Why you should vote for Save KPFA in the Local Station Board election
Members of Pacifica's National Board rack up tens of thousands of dollars in meeting expenses each quarter, but can't seem to pass a budget on time. They've ordered their election supervisor to spend tens of thousands of dollars printing and mailing fat ballot booklets that could just as easily be posted online—even as Pacifica falls behind its payments for "Democracy Now!". Over the years, our boardmembers have found ways to conjure up salaries and paying contracts for some of their own, even as the radio stations they're supposed to care for have been laying off staff members well-loved by their listeners.
Hi everyone,
If you're a KPFA member, you should be getting a ballot this week from the Pacifica Foundation that asks you to rank 27 candidates for 9 seats on KPFA's Local Station Board. Here are the people I'm endorsing (I'll explain why below). You can read more about them at http://www.savekpfa.org. In no particular order:
§ Dave Saldana
§ Suzi Goldmacher
§ Matthew Hallinan
§ Margy Wilkinson
§ Mal Burnstein
§ Tanya Russell
§ Terry Doran
§ Donald Goldmacher
§ Mark Hernandez
§ Jack Kurzweil
Here's the situation: KPFA, and Pacifica (the nonprofit network that owns KPFA) are on the brink. Literally. When the economy tanked, it decimated fundraising. That compounded long-term trends in Pacifica—stagnant audiences, rising costs—and has rapidly drained the network's cash reserves. Now Pacifica's bills are in arrears, and the wolves are at the door.
So the question is: how do we turn it around?
There are two competing visions in the world of Pacifica politics, and they represent a very stark contrast. The first is austerity and de-professionalization. The second is rejuvenating our programming to bring in more listeners.
Let's start with the second: The team I'm endorsing thinks better programming is the key to winning more listeners over to KPFA . . . and more listeners means more money during fund drives. We already know what success looks like: KPFA's newest program, Mitch Jeserich's "Letters to Washington", debuted last November. It's already matching the audience numbers of KPFA's most popular program, "Democracy Now!" and it's become one of the station's top fund-raisers during pledge drives as well.
What KPFA and Pacifica need are more innovations like "Letters". Instead, some of our board members are trying to get rid of it.
You see, among some of KPFA's boardmembers, there is an ideological commitment to volunteer-run radio. This comes from a few different places: some, like the Vice-Chair of the Pacifica National Board, are partial to fringe conspiracy theories – and they think paid programmers prevent some of that stuff from getting to the air. Others have concluded that because some non-commercial stations in less-populous areas operate without paid programmers, volunteer-produced radio is more authentic "community radio" than what we do at KPFA. People of both persuasions have wanted to eliminate most of KPFA's professional staff since before the current fiscal crisis.
Their battle-cry is "democracy!" And, indeed, most of them wouldn't have any say over what goes on the air if Pacifica hadn't decided, eight years ago, to hand control over to whomever happens to float to the top of relatively low-turnout elections. That's why it's so important that you educate yourself and vote.
Unfortunately, low-turnout elections in the new, "democratic" Pacifica have given birth to something every bit as frightening as the autocratic regime that preceded it: a self-serving governance bureaucracy that places its own needs above those of the radio stations it controls.
Members of Pacifica's National Board rack up tens of thousands of dollars in meeting expenses each quarter, but can't seem to pass a budget on time. They've ordered their election supervisor to spend tens of thousands of dollars printing and mailing fat ballot booklets that could just as easily be posted online—even as Pacifica falls behind its payments for "Democracy Now!". Over the years, our boardmembers have found ways to conjure up salaries and paying contracts for some of their own, even as the radio stations they're supposed to care for have been laying off staff members well-loved by their listeners. Since Pacifica democratized in 2002, it's spent more than $2.4 million on its boards. So of course they support replacing paid programmers with volunteers—that frees up more resources for what they see as the real purpose of Pacifica: playing mock congress.
The SaveKPFA slate understands that the role of a nonprofit board is to support its organization, not suck it dry; to guide its direction, but not micromanage its operations. And that's why I'm supporting them.
Now for the usual caveat: there are probably other worthy candidates in the mix--I don't know everyone who's running, and I won't endorse someone I don't know. I can tell you *not* to vote for anyone on the "Voices for Justice" slate. Their incumbent board member, Sureya Sayadi, has brought several board meetings grinding to a halt by screaming epithets at the top of her lungs. Her running-mate, Steve Zeltzer, did the same to meetings inside the station during his brief stint as a KPFA programmer.
Meanwhile, the "Independents for Community Radio" slate recruits more reputable candidates, but they seem to follow the marching orders of the board insider who recruit them to run. The "independents" have a terrible track-record: their worst actions, unfortunately, I'm required to keep confidential. I can tell you that in the year that they've controlled KPFA's board, the "independents" have doubled the number of meetings—and halved the amount of work done. We're barely a month from the beginning of the next fiscal year, and they haven't even produced a rough draft of a budget.
In particular, I strongly recommend *against* voting for Tracy Rosenberg. I had high hopes for her when she first ran, but she's proven herself a no-holds-barred ideologue. She has 1) misrepresented herself as election staff--asking people to send her their supposedly-confidential ballots—when she was in fact a candidate herself, 2) ghost-managed a divisive recall campaign among the station's staff targeting myself and Bonnie Simmons, 3) tried to have a KPFA newscaster disciplined for reporting a 60-second story on the departure of KPFA's last general manager, and 4) registered the web address savekpfa.net and re-directed it to her own slate in an apparent attempt to confuse voters about which candidates are running on which slate. I can't imagine how a self-proclaimed champion of democracy justifies that last trick -- when SaveKPFA candidates raised this with her, she asked them to make her an "offer" to get it back.
It is vitally important that you educate yourself about the election and vote. Your ballot is due September 30--turn it in now so you don't forget. Finally, forward this email to all the friends you have who care about KPFA, and ask them to pass it on as well.

A TEACHER and her pupil celebrated the end of the school year in an unorthodox way — by saying goodbye to their long locks.
Last month Eloise Douglas, a Year Eight pupil at Bury Church of England High, and geography teacher Nicola Price, went under the scissors to donate their hair to charity.
The pair gave their hair to Little Princess Trust, which supplies bespoke wigs for poorly children suffering from hair loss for a variety of reasons.
Eloise and Mrs Price, aged 34, had hoped to raise at least £350 but have doubled their target after seeing around £700 of donations roll in so far.
Mrs Price, who left Bury Church this summer to take up a post in Nelson in September, said: "It was scary, and we are both still getting used to our chin-length bobs, but the support has been fantastic.
"We have had a real mixture of donations from different places. Around £120 came from school, I collected £40 at the Beat-Herder festival and Eloise single-handedly brought in between £400 and £500.
"It was a really good way to end the school year, and Eloise was incredibly brave."
Louise Livesey, a part-time mobile hairdresser whose son Sam, is in Year Eight and is a keen charities volunteer, wielded the scissors on the day.

CHIBA – Chiba Lotte Marines right-hander Yasuhiko Yabuta, who had a stint in the major leagues with the Kansas City Royals, will retire at the end of this season, the club said Sunday.
The 40-year-old Yabuta has been hampered with a right shoulder problem and has not played for the top team this season.
"I did my best until the (end) to try and return to the Marine mound, but felt it was beyond me," Yabuta said in a club statement. "I have no regrets."
A member of the Japan team that won the inaugural World Baseball Classic in 2006, Yabuta made his professional debut with the Marines in 1996 after joining the Pacific League club as a second-round draft pick.

Fundraising Thermometer: Get Your Free Fundraising Thermometer!
If you are looking for a free fundraising thermometer and ways to use it to raise more money, keep reading.
A fundraising thermometer is a great tool for your group, church, school, team or non profit organization to keep track of, show and encourage progress in your fundraising efforts.
ABC Fundraising® has made it so easy to add a fundraising thermometer to your group's website. Click here to customize your free fundraising thermometer. Simply enter in your fundraising goal, the amount raised so far, change the color if you like and click update. Then, all you have to do is copy and paste the information into your group or organization's website and you will see your own custom fundraising thermometer on your site. You then simply bookmark the fundraising thermometer page so you can return easily to update when you add to your profits.
To really make your fundraising thermometer work as a tool for you, it's important to update the fundraising thermometer continually throughout your fundraiser. The closer people see that you are to reaching your goal, the harder they will push and the more generous donors will be to help your group reach your fundraising goals. If you update everyday – consider sending an email out to your members and supporters each day during the fundraiser, with a link to your fundraising thermometer on your web page. Supporters will see how much their dollars have helped and they will see how much further you have to go. Members will see from the fundraising thermometer that they have work left to do, more sales to make, and more money to raise to reach your fundraising goals.
You may also want to have your members post the thermometer on their personal facebook pages halfway through your fundraiser and once more near the end so that their friends, family and supporters are encouraged to make that last push and help donate more money so your group can raise the money necessary.
The fundraising thermometer is exciting because you, your members and supporters can really see directly that their efforts are contributing to achieving a specific goal. It makes the goal feel attainable and unites everyone in the common goal of attaining this goal.
Your fundraising thermometer works with just about any fundraiser – if you do a scratch card fundraiser, or a candle fundraiser, you can use the fundraising thermometer to track sales. If you are doing an event fundraiser like a crab feed fundraiser, a raffle, or talent night, you will be able to track the sale of tickets with your fundraising thermometer.
Don't rely on your free fundraising thermometer as your only source of promotion and motivation. It's a great tool but you will also want to generate excitement and promote your fundraiser in other ways. Consider involving local media, newspapers, radio and whatever you can to generate awareness about your fundraising efforts. Direct people to your group or organization website where they can see your fundraising thermometer. Make sure to have easily visible contact information so potential supporters can get in touch with you to purchase cookie dough or raffle tickets, or make other donations.
Getting full participation from your group is paramount. If you can motivate your group members to really work hard and raise as much money as possible your fundraising thermometer will shoot through the roof and your goals will be reached with bonus profit to spare.

Storyville Coffee opened its Queen Anne shop on Jan. 30. The shop's goal is to provide a higher-quality coffee-shop experience. Photo by Sarah Radmer
On the top of Queen Anne hill, there's a new coffee shop. The walls are a cool combination of exposed brick and warm wood paneling. The tables are distressed wood; the couches, leather. A large industrial fireplace warms the space.
This coffee shop (2128 Queen Anne Ave. N.) is the third Storyville coffee shop in Seattle. It opened Jan. 30, but "it feels like forever," said assistant manager Sonja Lund.
The business started in 2006 as an e-commerce company that sold coffee from its Bainbridge roasting studio and in-home brewing kits. The store still sells the coffee and the at-home kits.
The goal was to perfect coffee at home with the Storyville French presses, said co-president Jamie Munson. Now it's trying to bring that perfect coffee experience to its shops.
All of the coffee comes from Bainbridge, and all of the pastries are baked in-house. The stores only sell 8- and 12-ounce drinks, maintaining the perfect milk-to-coffee ratio, Lund said. In Queen Anne, the store's ham-and-cheese breakfast sandwich — made with Beechers cheese — has been popular. People also love the vanilla latte, caramel rolls and granola.
A 'new coffee experience'
The first shop opened in Pike Place Market just last October. The owners had their eye on the Queen Anne location before it became available to lease, Munson said. He loves the close-knit family experience on the hill that still is conveniently close to downtown.
"It's like a hidden gem in the city," Lund said. "It's the perfect place for Queen Anne. The community is very tight."
The goal was to create a warm space where everyone feels comfortable, Munson said; design features, like warm lighting and a low wrap-around bar help that feeling. Munson wants it to feel like a "perpetual sunset," something he says we can use to offset all of our gray skies.
That attitude is reinforced with the quote displayed on the store's wall: "Love everybody, never ever hurt anybody," as said by Garry Phelps, one of the co-founders sons, who has Down's syndrome.
Queen Anne is not without it's fair share of coffee shops, but that doesn't worry Munson, who said Storyville is more concerned with competing with itself than others.
"Seattle is needing a new coffee experience," Munson said.
This exclusivity is punctuated by the limited menu and the fact that you don't need to bus your own table.
The logo, referred to as "Fly Boy," is of a young boy running with a toy airplane. "Fly Boy" exemplifies a world without boundaries, full of possibilities, Munson said; it's about the wonder of life before we get older and the world starts to tell us no.
That logo is seen on all of the merchandise in the shop, on the shirts of the employees and in the shape of the small sugar cookies that the baristas give to kids who come in.
The Queen Anne community has been very welcoming, Lund said. She already has regulars, and she can already tell how tight the community is. People have already started to come in based on the recommendation of their neighbors.
"I'm blown away by the community here," she said.
Mars Hill connection?
Not everyone has welcomed Storyville with open arms, though. An October 2013 article in The Stranger proposed the coffee company's relationship to Mars Hill Church. The church and its head pastor, Mark Driscoll, have long been connected with messages of misogyny and homophobia. Munson was a former executive pastor at Mars Hill, the article states.
A follow-up article shows a since-removed post on the Mars Hill site that said, "God has used Storyville Coffee to bless Mars Hill Downtown. Since the Downtown campus has been planted, Storyville has donated tens of thousands of dollars worth of coffee, supplies and equipment."
Munson denies any connection to Mars Hill and says the shops do not donate anything to the church. Lund has had customers come in and ask about it, but it's a quick conversation when she explains they have no affiliation, she said.
"It's a little unfair," Munson said about the presumed connection. "But it hasn't shut us down."
Last week, the Queen Anne Moms and Dads group were circulating emails about the possible Mars Hill connection. Moderator Jill Gallagher said she doesn't believe in what Mars Hill stands for and won't patronize a company affiliated with them.
Reactions to the thread were varied, Gallagher said: Some were glad to get the information, some were worried they were attacking religion and others said they didn't care about any religious connections and were just glad a local business filled the vacant spot.
To those naysayers, Munson said, "I can say a million times, 'There's no connection.' Come give us a shot. We have nothing to hide, and we'll keep getting better."

Trevali Mining Corporation Receives Approval for $30 Million of Funding From RMB Resources
Trevali Mining Corporation (TSX:TV,OTCQX:TREVF,LMA:TV,FWB:4TI) received in-principle approval from RMB Resources (the resource financing division of the FirstRand Group of South Africa) for $30 million of funding for the Company's $60-million senior debt and prepaid precious metals facility in New Brunswick.
As quoted in the press release:
This mezzanine tranche of the RMB facility is repayable on the earlier of June 30, 2014, or closing of the final $60-million senior debt facility. The facility bears interest of LIBOR + 8.5% per annum and has an arrangement fee of 5% and 3,000,000 warrants to purchase Trevali common shares on the TSX, issued on the closing date of the facility and exercisable at any time through June 30, 2015 at an exercise price of $1.25 per share, subject to TSX approval.
Trevali Mining Corporation President and CEO, Dr. Mark Cruise said:
We are very pleased with the approval of the initial $30-million funding by RMB as we continue to focus on advancing our mill and mine development operations in New Brunswick towards production, and securing the final $60 million in senior debt and prepaid silver facilities as previously announced. In addition to the imminent commissioning of our Santander Mine in Peru, Trevali aims to maximize its zinc production profile with planned output from Bathurst Mining Camp operations, and looks to benefit from the robust outlook for the commodity in light of the many forecast closures of major zinc producers globally.

On Jan. 8, the MBA in collaboration with the Conservation Law Foundation, is launching the MBA Lawyers Eco-Challenge, urging lawyers to sign the MBA's Lawyers Environmental Pledge to use the MBA Green Guidelines in developing environmentally sustainable practices. Both documents will be available on the Eco-Challenge Web site: www.massbar.org/ecochallenge.
Starting on Jan. 7, Lawyers Weekly is also participating in the Eco-Challenge by running Eco-Tips in each issue for the next several months. In addition, a comprehensive resource guide and numerous tips will be posted regularly on the Eco-Challenge Web site and sent to members via email.
The MBA's Energy and Environment Task Force, a group of more than a dozen attorneys, has written the Pledge and compiled the Guidelines. The Pledge, which must be filled out by one representative from each law firm, asks participants to become "Pledge Partners" and adhere to the Guidelines.
The Guidelines offer detailed and specific suggestions for altering behaviors, updating products and services and taking actions that will result in more sustainable practices as well as energy and resource conservation. They focus on eight core areas of sustainability: energy conservation, paper reduction, recycling, greenhouse gas reduction, environmentally conscious purchases, sustainable practices, education and support for environmental conservation.
MBA President David W. White Jr. unveiled the Eco-Challenge in September, when he took office for the MBA's 2007-08 association year, and later formed the task force, on which he sits.

announced a net loss of $14 million in the final quarter of 2006, down from a $19.4 million profit a year before. The loss was exacerbated by $47 million worth of stock backdating charges that were spread out over restatements dating back to 1997.
Then Reuters reported that the publisher had entered into settlement talks in a federal lawsuit surrounding Grand Theft Auto and the Hot Coffee incident. The company has apparently been in discussions since Feb. 16 over allegations that the hidden, mod-accessible content ran afoul of state consumer protection laws.
The good news? Um... Grand Theft Auto IV is still set to come out later this year, so Take Two's fortunes seem likely to turn around eventually. For the time being, though, things probably aren't too jubilant over at Take Two HQ.

The whole purpose of the Scion brand is to attract younger people to the Toyota family of brands. Low prices and the chance to customize vehicles have proven a huge success, and for 2009 the Scion xB gets a long list of standard features while retaining a smaller, no-haggle price.
According to Kelley Blue Book, Scion's approach "encourages customization and makes the car-buying process more personal." The 2009 Scion xB "comes with loads of standard features" and numerous options. One of the xB Scion's most prominent features is the sound system. Automobile Magazine declares that "the stereo is ready to blast the contents of your iPod, and the premium audio system's auxiliary inputs make it easier to add more equipment." Kelley Blue Book details the audio system's "Organic Electroluminescent (OEL) Screen. This screen, built into the audio faceplate on the dash, allows you to display personal 'skins' to customize the interior of the car. Skins can be created and downloaded on a special site produced by Pioneer just for Scion owners." Other reviews read by TheCarConnection.com invariably praise the audio system on the 2009 Scion xB. Edmunds also notes that the xB Scion's other "standard features include 16-inch steel wheels...air-conditioning, cruise control, full power accessories [and] a tilt steering wheel." Kelley Blue Book mentions that the steel wheels are offered with a choice of "three different wheel covers" and informs us that tire pressure monitoring is standard, too.
Much like the competing MINI Cooper Clubman, the 2009 Scion xB has so many features and available options that you can easily craft a unique vehicle to suit your tastes, from decals to exterior and interior trim and some minor performance pieces. The list of optional features and customer upgrades on the Scion xB is very extensive, but most of the options are reasonably priced and very cool. The only options that are lacking are in the performance department. Unlike the tC, xB buyers don't have the option to add the supercharger from Toyota Racing Development. Road & Track cites "a huge reason for the success" of the Scion brand is its "unique approach to factory vehicle customization," which is apparent as soon as one glances at the available options on the Scion xB. Car and Driver lists some of the optional features, including "$299 LED interior mood lights, $1599 DVD headrest televisions, and a $2250 navigation system," but notes that few performance options are available. "For those who want a more 'upscale' feeling inside, an interior trim upgrade kit is also available," according to Kelley Blue Book.

At Galeton dairy, Galeton, Xolo., all calves receive colostrum — even bulls.
All colostrum is tested with a colostrometer. If it scores green, it is pasteurized and then stored in the refrigerator in bottles ready to feed. Cow colostrum, which is reserved for heifer calves, is stored in bottles with a red nipple. Colostrum from first-calf-heifers is fed to bulls and stored in bottles with a black nipple. This way, employees know at a glance which bottle of colostrum to feed to a newborn. And if they have more than one newborn to feed, the bottles don't get mixed up on the way to the newborn area.

In a statement released Friday, President Barack Obama declared that "LGBT persons are endowed with" what he called "inalienble rights," but omitted the word "Creator" from what clearly was an allusion to the famous language of the Declaration of Independence.
The president's June 17 statement was in response to a U.N. resolution on human rights, sexual orientation and gender identity.
"(T)his marks a significant milestone in the long struggle for equality, and the beginning of a universal recognition that LGBT persons are endowed with the same inalienable rights -- and entitled to the same protections -- as all human beings," the statement said.
The Declaration of Independence reads: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." (Bolding added).
Friday's statement was the third time this year that the president has used the "inalienable rights" language and omitted the word "Creator."

Industrial motors power chip market shows 9% annual growth
Post a comment
LONDON The market for power semiconductors in industrial motor drives is set to grow from $1 billion in 2007 to $1.3 billion in 2010, with the growth mainly driven by an increasing fraction of motors electronic drives, according to IMS Research (Wellingborough, England). Those figures imply a annual growth rate of about 9.1 percent.
Power semiconductor components are the biggest revenue opportunity used in industrial motor drives and the market size is about twice the size of the combined market for microcontroller and analog-based components. "IGBT modules are used in the large majority of industrial motor drives, explained Jamie Fox, an IMS Research analyst, in a statement. "As well as standard IGBT modules, intelligent power modules and power integrated modules are also used."
Power Integrated Modules have the highest growth forecast, of 10.8 percent annually.
Most of the market is for modules; however there is also a small market for discrete transistors and power ICs. Significant changes in the basic bill of materials are not expected in the next few years. Performance trends for power semiconductors include a demand for reduced heat losses, better temperature tolerance and higher power densities.
